[ scene_break ] marty : what is it you want to apologize for this time ? natalie : for telling john that you 're pregnant . i had no idea that he did n't know , and i mean , i assume that you guys have talked about it . i mean , i 'm just guessing . marty : we 've talked about it . natalie : good . i just want you to know that i was n't trying to get into your business . marty , i swear to you i would n't have said a word . i just took for granted that you would have already told him . marty : and you wanted to congratulate him after you went through my purse . natalie : i did n't go through your purse . marty : no ? natalie : no . it was bree . she heard a phone ringing , and she went to go grab it , and before i could stop her , she grabbed the purse , knocked all the contents on the floor , and when i was picking it up , i accidentally saw the test . marty : yes , john mentioned that . natalie : and you do n't believe me ? marty : i believe you . natalie : okay . because i would never do that . i would never invade someone 's privacy like that . and i 'm sorry for all the confusion . marty : yeah , well , what 's done is done , is n't it ? obviously i would have preferred to be the first person to tell john that i 'm having a baby with him . but the important thing is that he knows now , and he could n't be happier . [ scene_break ] bo : marty 's pregnant ? john : yeah . keys . bo : that is huge ! it 's the greatest . congratulations , man . john : thanks . bo : you think you can smile , you know ? this is the best news that a guy can get . you are gon na be a father . john : it 's great , definitely . i know that . bo : good . there 's a but in there somewhere . are you -- what 's getting in the way ? [ scene_break ] todd : so , kelly , when was the last time somebody pulled out all the stops to have an audience with you ? thought you 'd be flattered . kelly : you know , that 's your problem in a nutshell , todd . you think picking up a woman , heaving her over your shoulder -- or in this case , someone else 's shoulder -- is somehow charming . todd : well , it worked for king kong . kelly : that 's sweet how all you apes understand each other , but i would n't want to work for any of you . so , why do n't you tell your guy on the other side of this door to let me leave in peace . todd : yeah , i will . just give me 5 minutes to make my case . i drew up a contract for you . that 's your opening salary right there . and also , if you have any pet projects you want to get up and running , i 'd be happy to fund those . and , uh , i could also be your primary donor to whatever your favorite charity is . kelly : you know what 's worse than take no prisoners ? a fake born - again philanthropist . todd : listen , i 'm just trying to -- trying to spread the wealth . i 'm trying to do something good with my money , so ... thank you . kelly : yeah . this is n't about making the world a better place . this is about impressing your daughter , and it did n't work with danielle the first time . your 5 minutes are up . my turn , okay ? todd : be my guest . kelly : yeah . now , this is a generous offer , and there are a ton of qualified people who would just jump right at it . so why do n't you tell me ... why does it have to be me ? [ scene_break ] cole : hannah ? hannah , come on . look at me . did you take these pills ? huh ? did you take these pills ? if you did , how many did you take ? hannah : i want to go home . cole : look , look , you 're not making sense . okay , look at me . look , concentrate , okay ? i need you to focus . did you take these pills and how many ? hannah : oh , i do n't know . a few . cole : look , the bottle is empty . the bottle is empty , okay ? how many pills were in here ? hannah : i ca n't remember . please , just let me go back to sleep . cole : no . come on . you ca n't do that . come on . come on . hannah : oh ! cole : come on , come on , come on , let 's go ! hannah : what are you doing ? cole : come on , i got to get this garbage out of your system , okay ? hannah : stop . cole : come on . [ scene_break ] dani : what are you doing ? starr : calling langston . dani : what are you gon na say ? starr : i 'm going to tell her to get her butt over here because i want an explanation . [ scene_break ] blair : ha ha . you think i need help ? jessica : sleeping with a whole bunch of men is n't going to make you happy , blair , and a lot of women do it because they have really low self - esteem , but you can fix that . blair : oh , there 's nothing wrong with my self - esteem . cristian : okay , blair , i 'm sorry . let me talk to -- jessica : you 're apologizing to her ? cristian : someone should , jess . jessica : well , she was n't the one that walked in on her boyfriend -- cristian : i 'm not your boyfriend , jess ! how many times do i have to say it ? blair : you know what , cristian ? i 'm gon na let the two of you talk this out . good luck . [ scene_break ] starr : langston , call me the minute you get this . it 's very important . blair : hey , sweetie . wow . you look like you could spit nails . what 's going on ? starr : i thought that you left . blair : i was just having a little chat with cristian . what -- what -- you 're really mad . what 's wrong ? starr : langston totally lied to me , and i just found out about it . blair : oh , i told her it was gon na come out . starr : you knew about this ? blair : well , yeah . i mean , i could tell something was really bothering her , and so i asked her about it , and she confided in me . starr : what about her stealing my entire life from underneath me ? blair : your life ? starr : yeah . what would you call it ? blair : oh . well , obviously we 're on different pages . starr : well , maybe we are . what did langston tell you that she did n't tell me ? [ scene_break ] markko : out of all the places you thought i might end up , why here ? langston : well , you 've been working on that treatment for ford 's film class . markko : right . langston : so i just thought , you know , maybe you wanted to drop it off in person . markko : and you closed the door ? langston : i did n't realize it was closed . markko : you might want to do something about that . langston : uh , what ? markko : you 're missing a button . [ scene_break ] jessica : think about what it did to me to hear that you slept with blair . cristian : todd 's an idiot , jess . jessica : is he lying ? cristian : no , but why the hell would he bring something up that was over before it started ? look , it 's not like i was cheating on you . you and i broke up a long time before that . we both moved on . jessica : if i moved on , then how come i 'm standing here right now ? i 'm here because i loved you . i never stopped . cristian : that 's not true , jess . you got involved with other people . i got involved with other people . jessica : oh , what other people ? who ? blair , layla , and the other one ? what , roseanne ? were there others ? well , you might as well tell me , cristian . i might as well hear it from you . who else was there ? cristian : your sister . [ scene_break ] natalie : of course john 's happy . a baby 's great news . marty : it is . i guess i 'm just wondering why you 're surprised by his reaction . natalie : i 'm -- i 'm not . i mean , john and i never talked about that , so i ... marty : just assumed he did n't want to settle down and have a family . natalie : no , i did n't assume anything . john 's gon na make a great dad . marty : yeah , he is . he 's actually really looking forward to the baby . i mean , it 's gon na change our whole lives . natalie : a baby will do that . this is wonderful ... marty , and i wish you both the best . marty : thank you . natalie : so is there anything else that i should be congratulating you on ? marty : like what ? natalie : a wedding maybe ? [ scene_break ] john : i guess maybe i 'm giving you the wrong idea . bo : i just wish that you 'd loosen up a little bit , that 's all . you 're about to have a baby with the woman you love . john : i know . it 's just it 's a lot to get used to . bo : i take it that it was n't planned . huh . one of life 's little surprises . john : maybe that 's not the point , bo . bo : no , no . the point is you are about to start one of the greatest adventures that life has to offer . john : you 're not gon na start singing , are you ? bo : well , i do n't know . i just might . well , look , i think of everything that my boys have added to my life , and -- ha . even david , all right ? and there is no way to measure it . you wait . you 're gon na take one look at that little baby , and you 're gon na know that you would lay down your life for him no questions asked . john : you 're a good father , bo . bo : yeah , and you will be , too . there 's no doubt about it . of course , it will be a whole new you . bet that puts the fear of god in you , does n't it ? john : ha . what do you think ? bo : i think it should ... because it 's the best job that you 'll ever have , and you will be up to it , and i 'm happy for you . john : i 'm happy , too . bo : when are you two getting married ? [ scene_break ] todd : you know why i really want you for the job ? kelly : why do n't you tell me why you really want me for the job ? todd : you 're a good person . [ kelly laughs ] todd : why is that funny ? kelly : two things . number one , `` goodness `` is not even on your radar . number two , if i 'm so good , why have i done so many bad things ? todd : like what ? kelly : i do n't know . let 's pick a couple highlights . cheated on kevin . slept with max when he was with blair . todd : that was like a million years ago , right ? kelly : for you , maybe , but see , i do n't forget so easily . especially when i ran blair off the road . she lost her baby . todd : yeah , i remember that . kelly : yeah . i thought so . so why do n't we put my sainthood on hold , shall we ? todd : but ... these are accidents , right ? give yourself a break . kelly : why do n't you ask blair if she wants to give me a break ? you see , blair hates me . why would n't she ? you should know that better than anyone , todd . especially after everything you 've been through . wait a minute . that 's it , is n't it ? todd : what 's it ? kelly : you hire me , and it 's a perfect way to stick it to blair . she 's the reason you 're doing this . [ scene_break ] starr : mom , do n't even think about lying to me . she obviously spilled something huge . blair : starr , it was n't like that . starr : you said that langston confided in you . about what ? blair : well , it 's -- hey , danielle . how are you , sweetie ? dani : i just read langston 's play . blair : really . what did you think about it ? dani : it 's amazing . starr : it 's my life . and i did n't give her permission to write her own little private songfest . blair : sweetheart , you know , i knew that langston was up to something , but i did n't know exactly what . dani : it 's a great story . i can see why she wanted to tell it , but i can also see why starr 's so upset . i mean , that stuff about todd . blair : what about todd ? dani : she really nailed him . when it got to the part about how todd pushed you down the stairs -- starr : he did n't push me . dani : are you seriously defending him ? you could 've lost your baby . blair : you know what ? she did n't , though . she did n't , and look -- everything turned out all right . dani : unbelievable . you just keep forgiving him over and over again . starr : it obviously was n't easy . blair : it never is , sweetheart . starr : but what can i say ? he 's my dad . [ scene_break ] jessica : you were with my sister ? with -- with natalie ? did you ... cristian : look , jess -- jessica : did you sleep with her ? cristian : i 'm not trying to hurt you , jess . i just want to make you understand that a lot of things have happened since we were in high school -- serious things . and , you know , natalie and i , we -- we were married . [ scene_break ] marty : you know , i just think i 'll give john a little time to think about the fact that we 're having a baby together before i start printing invitations , you know . one thing at a time . natalie : right . marty : in fact , i was n't sure when i first told him that he 'd want to be involved . natalie : of course john would want to be involved . marty : he told you that ? natalie : no , john and i did not talk about how he felt . soon as i realized i had royally messed up by telling him , i dropped the whole thing . but just hearing the way you 've been talking about how excited he is about having this baby , i just kind of assumed the next step . marty : that we 'd run off and find the nearest church . natalie : forget it . you know what ? this is absolutely none of my business . i just wanted to apologize . marty : for -- for telling john my great news before i had the chance . [ natalie sighs ] marty : or is there something else you 're sorry for ? [ scene_break ] john : thing is , i do n't know if we 're getting married . we have n't gotten that far . bo : the last thing i want is to be pushy . john : i get it . you 're not . it 's a simple question . bo : yeah , and the answer is only up to you and marty , okay ? nobody else . and i 'll tell you something -- you do n't have to be married to be a good parent . john : some are better than others . you , for example . bo : do n't kid yourself . i 've made plenty of mistakes . john : not in the way you stood by matthew . bo : did you forget that his mom and i tried to keep him from having the operation that helped him walk again ? john : based on the information you had at the time , and he knows that . bo : maybe he does now . john : you 've always been in his corner . you 've proved that a thousand times . that 's not easy . bo : yeah , but it 's not as hard as you 'd think . you know , and i hope that you never doubt that . you are gon na love that kid , and everything else is just gon na fall right into place . john : can you put that in writing ? bo : i can do better than that . let 's drink to it , and i mean let 's drink the good stuff , okay ? 'cause i 'm buying . [ scene_break ] langston : yeah , awkward , huh ? well , i went to the store near the student union but they were all out of safety pins . and i did n't want to be walking around like that all day . markko : stealing safety pins from professors . that 's why you closed the door . langston : yeah . yeah . i thought maybe i could find something here to fix it , but no safety pins here , either . markko : well , here . langston : no . no , markko , look ... markko : just -- just take it . take it . now you do n't need a safety pin . besides , i do n't want you getting busted for indecent exposure . you 've got enough guys drooling on you as it is . [ scene_break ] kelly : i knew you were using me . i just could n't figure out for what . todd : kelly , you 're wrong about that . that has nothing to do with this . kelly : you live by one code . an eye for an eye . you wanted to get back at my cousin , and i was your best shot . todd : ah , well , i wo n't deny that i have a couple bones to pick with blair . kelly : i 'm curious . what 's her crime this time ? todd : besides digging up ross rayburn and throwing my marriage in the toilet ... [ chuckles ] kelly : now , would téa have ever told you about danielle if blair did n't dig that up ? i mean , maybe you should actually thank her for that . todd : that 's one way of looking at it . kelly : you might never have known you had another daughter . todd : i guess not . and she 's a special kid , too . does n't look like i 'm ever gon na get to know her , though . kelly : you will . one day . one day . todd : i do n't know . we lost so much time . but before we give blair too much credit ... she 's not completely innocent here . she kept danielle hidden from me , too . kelly : so it is payback . todd : no , i 'm just saying ... kelly : i do n't care what you 're saying . i know the truth . all this time , being nice to me , offering me the job , had nothing to do with me . it was about you finding a way to make someone else suffer . [ scene_break ] dani : guess that means i have to go to class . starr : which one ? dani : i do n't know . they 're all stupid . i 'll check my schedule . it 's in my locker . good luck with langston . starr : thank you . dani : and i promise i 'll never borrow anything from your life unless you say it 's okay . starr : it 's a deal . dani : and , i mean , the important thing is your story has a happy ending , right ? blair : ha ! good point ! good , good , good , good point . dani : i 'm serious . i wish i could have what starr has with cole . blair : well , you know what ? you will someday . some day when you 're older . much older . you have a great day , okay ? what are you gon na do about the play ? starr : hire a lawyer ? blair : come on , starr . that 's a little drastic , is n't it ? starr : do you want to buy tickets to this show ? let 's see , it says , `` todd rips cole out of bed as frightened starr screams . `` she did n't even bother to change the names . blair : well , maybe you should ask her . starr : it 's not going to matter anyway . everyone 's gon na know . blair : sweetheart , take a deep breath . the two of you just need to sit down in a room and talk about it . i know she does n't want to upset you . you know that . so , you can work it out . she probably thinks that you 'd be flattered that she wrote this whole play about you . starr : you act like you know her better than i do . which reminds me , what was that big thing that she unloaded on you ? blair : it was nothing . you know what ? i need to get out of here and pick up your little brother you know how he gets when i 'm not there . `` mom ! `` he gets all over me . i 'll see you later . [ scene_break ] langston : all right , well , let 's get out of here . markko : lang , wait . where is it ? langston : where 's what ? markko : the folder . you and me , we switched folders this morning . you have my treatment . langston : oh ! oh , yeah . yeah . here it is . markko : great . langston : okay . oh , wait . that means you have my script . markko : uh , no . no . i left it with starr . langston : with starr ? markko : i thought she might see you before i did . langston : did she read it ? markko : i do n't -- i do n't know . langston : i got ta go . markko : wait , wait , wait . wait . i 'm gon na stay here and leave ford a note about my treatment . langston : okay . markko : wait . hey . thanks for coming all the way down here just for me . i love you . [ kiss ] langston : me , too . [ scene_break ] jessica : you and my sister were married ? i do n't understand . no one mentioned that . not my mom , not my dad . cristian : maybe they did n't want to overwhelm you . it 's a lot of years , jess . jessica : right . right . they probably did n't have the heart to tell me that the love of my life went behind my back and married my twin sister who , by the way , does n't even look like me . cristian : how she looked was never a part of it . i was n't trying to look for a substitute . jessica : this explains so much . it really does . cristian : what are you talking about ? jessica : the way that natalie was talking about you , like she knows you so well . no wonder , huh ? and you . do you feel like a big , macho stud having us both ? cristian : okay , well , jess , you know what ? you might want to stop here . you 're on shaky ground . jessica : because i do n't remember ? cristian : because you married my brother . [ scene_break ] natalie : marty , i do n't know what else to be sorry for , unless you 're referring to what happened between john and me up on the mountain . marty : no , i do n't think we need to rehash all that . natalie : actually , i think we do . i 'm not proud of what i did . marty : kissing john ? natalie : and letting you think that it only happened once , because i was confused . i 'm sorry . marty : i do n't think that really matters anymore , natalie . natalie : it does . because i need you to know that nothing like that will ever happen again . and you have my word . marty : i thought we were talking about a kiss or two here . why am i suddenly feeling like you 're talking about something more ? natalie : no . nope . i mean , all it was was just a little bit of ... old chemistry , which only surfaced because we were in a crisis and we did n't think we were gon na get out of it . but it 's over . you and john are ... have a baby . marty : yes , we are . natalie : and of course i respect that . i will never do anything to come in between you and john . john and i are friends , and that is all we will ever be . marty : okay .

chelsea : i knew it was irrational . adam travels on business all the time . [ sighs ] but we 'd just gotten home from the hospital and seeing billy and victoria and the abbotts , and there were so many tears , so many goodbyes . [ sighs ] so something just felt off about the timing . it just felt like it was n't a good time for adam to leave town . and i had this really bad feeling driving home from the hospital . so i told him . i told him to stay , and he told me that i was worrying for nothing . and he kissed -- kissed me goodbye , and he left . sage : and that 's the last time you heard from him ? chelsea : yeah . sage : huh . chelsea : it 's really unlike adam . he always reaches out to me when he 's traveling , always . he 'll -- he 'll , you know , text me sweet messages . for him to leave when he knew i was really uneasy about it and then go radio silent ... no . it 's -- it 's -- something 's wrong . sage : yeah , i - i can really understand why you 'd think that . chelsea : i should 've held my ground , you know ? i should 've forced him to stay . adam thinks he can take care of himself , but he ca n't . he never should 've gotten involved in this stupid war between victor and the santoris in the first place . sage : honey , we do n't know all the facts , all right ? listen , for all of victor 's faults , i do n't believe for one second that he 'd put his son in harm 's way . chelsea : when victor feels like something 's threatening his precious company , he becomes vicious . someone has to suffer . it 's just never victor . natalie : that looks like -- mariah : a ransom note . in exchange for adam , they want -- natalie : `` the girl . `` who is that ? who 's valuable enough to trade for adam newman ? mariah : it 's you . natalie , the girl is you . natalie : [ scoffs ] me ? mariah : yes . you 're the reason why adam is missing . in exchange for adam , they want you and your billion - dollar project . natalie : oh , my god . i told you they 're after me . mariah : the people you stole money from . natalie : the people who bought my security program . mariah : which you did n't deliver because it 's `` still in beta , `` which basically means it does n't work -- not that that stopped you from keeping their money . natalie : they must have decided to get to me through victor by kidnapping his son . mariah : yeah , people tend to react badly when they feel that they 've been double crossed . natalie : stop talking . i need to think . [ sighs ] oh , this is bad . this is so bad . i have to get out of here . mariah : hey , no , no . no , you do n't . you 're not going anywhere . nick : what girl are you talking about ? victor : it 's a young lady just out of college . she was interviewing for a job . nick : okay . why is that something you and kevin would be discussing ? kevin : she 's in it . her résumé was out on the desk , so ... victor : son , i 'm surprised to see you . is everything all right ? nick : well , you tell me . chelsea came to me . she 's worried sick that adam 's mixed up into something dangerous . victor : kevin , would you kindly give us a moment ? kevin : sure thing . victor : uh , do n't stay away too long , all right ? kevin : mm - hmm . [ door shuts ] nick : dad , chelsea is convinced you know more than you 're saying . so i 'm asking you , as your son . do you know what happened to adam ? victor : what do you think , son ? noah : hey . come here . hey . what are you doing ? luca : finding out where marisa is . noah : my grandfather 's not gon na tell you anything . luca : i 'm not afraid of victor , all right ? i 'm not afraid of him . and i 'm sure as hell not gon na let him use my wife as collateral to get adam back . noah : you 're going about this the wrong way , okay ? luca : hey , what are you doing here ? kevin : i 'm handling something for victor , not that it 's any of your concern . luca : if you know where he 's holding her , you better tell me . kevin : i have no idea what you 're talking about . noah : marisa 's gone , kevin . she disappeared . kevin : and you think that victor -- noah : i do n't know . it 's a long story , one that can not go public . but maybe if you could quietly tap in to the company 's surveillance system , we could find out what happened , maybe find out where they took her ? kevin : i 'm sorry . i ca n't . luca : ca n't or wo n't ? kevin : look , after the whole paragon mess , victor had extra firewalls installed into the system that are tough to get through , even for me . besides , the new cameras had n't been installed the night of billy 's accident . i still do n't think they 're up . noah : okay , but there 's got to be -- kevin : i 'm sorry . i ca n't . luca : convenient , how the cameras are never on when victor and his family do n't want them to be . dylan : okay , i 'm , uh -- i 'm a little confused . sharon : becoming a cop -- that 's the last thing that i would want for you , dylan . that 's a dangerous line of work . dylan : right . okay . when i -- when i first told you i wanted to do this , you were very supportive . sharon : and then harding got shot . and then you told me that you 'd reconsidered . you 'd said you were becoming a father , and you did n't want to put your family 's futures at risk . dylan : i did . i did say that at the time , yes . sharon : and that was a huge relief to me . so why would you change your mind now , especially now that sully 's here ? dylan : i know all the reasons that i need to be safe , and everything that i have to come home to , you know ? but i realize that it 's just something that i have to do . i need to do this . and i thought you would understand . sharon : no , i do n't . i do n't understand . i do n't like it . stitch : we 're gon na be working together , so let 's table all the discussion of love and just stick to business , okay ? abby : and why is that ? stitch : 'cause i do n't think you know anything about love , abby . abby : i 've been in love before , stitch . stitch : you say that , but , come on . how can that be true ? devon : abby . abby : devon , hey . devon : hey . abby : hey . [ chuckles ] standing there , i thought you were gon na tell me the specials . did you really cut back on the staff that much ? devon : that 's funny . no , i 'm not your waiter . abby : well , thank god , because i would n't know what to tip a billionaire . devon : ah , well , i just wanted to come over and say hi , but it looks like you 're busy . abby : this ? no , no . please , sit down . devon : you sure ? abby : yes . devon : these high - level operations you got going on here -- it 's intense . abby : no , it 's just some logistics reports . it 's nothing . devon : yeah ? abby : yeah . devon : look at you . this stuff 's , like , easy for you now , right ? miss coo . of the year over here . abby : oh , yeah , yeah . you know , lots of hard work and effort and , um ... no , i am not even thinking about this right now . this is just so boring . devon : well , that 's not good . you should , uh -- you should come work for us . abby : here , at the club ? yeah , i do n't know if you 're aware , but , um , customer service -- not really my thing . devon : you 're not exactly a `` the customer 's always right `` type of woman . abby : no , because usually , the customer is an idiot . devon : okay . okay . [ both laugh ] devon : nah , i was n't talking about the club . i was talking about , uh , our new venture with dr. neville and your mom . abby : oh . medical research . um ... yeah , i 'm not really qualified for that , but , uh , i guess that has n't stopped me before . devon : exactly , so you should at least think about it . abby : yeah . yeah . i mean , it would be fun to work with my mom , but , um ... i 'm kind of committed to newman right now . devon : you just said that stuff 's boring . abby : sometimes , yes . [ chuckles ] but i like working with victoria and my dad . devon : well , all i know is when i walked over here , whatever you were working on looked like it was giving you a headache , so , i mean , if that 's what you want out of a job ... abby : no . um ... actually , i - i was n't thinking about this . i was , um ... i was looking at that table over there . i was thinking about something . devon : why ? what about the table ? abby : about a year and a half ago , um , at that table right there , someone told me that i did n't know anything about love . devon : who told you that you did n't know anything about love ? was it a guy ? abby : yes , it was a guy . [ both laugh ] devon : and what did you do to this guy ? how 'd you respond ? abby : um ... i married him . mariah : you ca n't bail now . kevin and i stuck our necks out trying to keep you safe to help get your project off the ground . natalie : i know you 're not doing it out of the goodness of your heart . you 're in it for the money . that 's all anyone 's in it for . mariah : not kevin . he believes in the idea . he believes in you , natalie . he promised victor newman a fully functional program . if you disappear now , you 're gon na be putting him in a terrible , terrible position , not to mention you are gon na make victor newman furious . and take it from somebody who used to be one of his minions . that is not a guy you want to see furious . natalie : i had no intention of doing that . i 'm sure i could find a way to handle things with victor . mariah : [ sighs ] trust me , sweetheart . you are way out of your league . noah : what 's that supposed to mean , the comment about the cameras ? luca : of course victor would cover his tracks . that 's why i need to speak to the man , see what i can get out of him . noah : listen , luca . i know my grandfather . he 's not gon na tell you a damn thing , okay ? and he 's certainly not going to admit he had anything to do with marisa 's disappearance . it 'd be the only leverage he would have for getting adam back . luca : okay , so , then , what do you suggest ? noah : i suggest we go somewhere else . my grandfather sees you right now , it 's just gon na antagonize him . it 'd be bad for you , bad for marisa . go somewhere private and call your father . you find out when the exchange is taking place . luca : no , i already told you . my father is n't responsible for any of this . noah : that 's your opinion . luca : no , no , no . it 's the truth , noah . noah : only one way to find out , luca . you coming or not ? victor : i assure you , chelsea is overreacting . nick : that 's not like her . victor : son , she 's letting her emotions run away with her , all right ? adam has n't answered her texts or her phone calls or whatever , so now she thinks the worst , probably because of billy abbott . nick : well , it seems to me chelsea has reason to question what 's going on . it 's not like adam to stay so out of touch . he has n't called . he has n't texted -- nothing . victor : that does n't mean that adam is missing . nick : have you talked to him ? victor : i 've talked to the people that he is meeting with , all right ? nick : the santoris . victor : why the hell did chelsea bring you into this ? i asked her not to over- dramatize things . why is she doing this ? nick : you make it sound like we 're trying to create problems . that 's not the case . look , dad . if you and adam are in some trouble , then tell me . let me help . victor : son , i told you . there 's nothing to worry about , but thank you for your concern . now please kindly convey that to chelsea . nick : so , in other words , just stay out of it . victor : nicholas , did n't you and i talk about the fact that you should devote your time now to your marriage and heal that ? i mean , you and sage have gone through a lot . do n't concern yourself with adam 's situation . it will be resolved . then he 'll come back . i guarantee it . sage : did you hear from your father ? nick : yeah , it was kind of the usual -- kind of like talking to a wall . i 'm sorry , chelsea . i tried , but i could n't get anything out of him . chelsea : victor would n't tell you anything ? any little detail might help , nick . nick : when i walked in , he and kevin were talking , and they mentioned `` the girl , `` uh , whatever that means . chelsea : who were they talking about ? nick : i do n't know . dad quickly changed the subject and tried to explain it . and honestly , i could n't even tell if it was important or not . then i asked dad about adam and the santoris , and he just said that adam was away on business , he was very busy , and that we should definitely try and stay out of it . chelsea : like hell i will . nick : i 'm sorry -- [ sighs ] sage : [ sighs ] i 'm really worried about adam , too . i mean , i know she 's got the police on it . somebody 's bound to figure out where he is . she 's certainly not gon na give up until she finds him . but maybe he 'll call her and have a good explanation for why she has n't heard from him . nick : i hope you 're right . you know , in the beginning , when dad kind of froze me out of newman enterprises , i was , uh ... i resented it . sage : mm - hmm . yeah . how you feel about that now ? nick : now i 'm just glad i 'm out of there . sage : [ laughs ] yeah . nick : got a lot of free time . i can focus on you . in fact ... sage : stop . nick : ... what are you doing later ? you want to go on a date with me ? sage : ooh , a date ? well , then , uh , what do you have in mind ? you 've got to be kidding me . natalie : how did this happen , all these ruthless people coming after me ? mariah : will you relax ? this does n't have to be a disaster . natalie : i have people who are willing to kidnap a billionaire 's son to get their hands on me so that i 'll honor our deal . then there 's victor newman on the other side , who you 've basically said is the prince of darkness . and he thinks it 's his deal . how is that not a disaster ? mariah : we will figure a way out of this . victor newman can either be your best friend or your worst enemy . and you have something that he wants . so the best way to get on his good side is to give the man a return on his investment . natalie : how the hell am i supposed to do that when my program 's all glitched up ? mariah : get back to work and un - glitch it . natalie : [ sighs ] mariah : [ sighs ] victor : i need you to trace the origin of that e - mail , all right ? i know the santoris are holding adam , but i need to know where before i make the trade . kevin : you mean trade `` the girl . `` who is she , by the way ? victor : marisa . luca 's parents do not like her . they want her out of their son 's life . kevin : so you 're just gon na hand her over just like that ? victor : i want my son back . got a problem with that ? kevin : no , of course not . but what if it 's not luca 's family ? what if it 's somebody else ? uh , with all due respect , you -- you have other enemies . victor : would you kindly trace the e - mail ? kevin : yeah . this e - mail is encrypted . this could take some time . victor : kevin ! kevin : okay . you know what ? i will make a copy of it so i can keep working on it . victor : please make it happen , all right ? i ca n't stall these people for much longer . kevin : okay . i 've got it . dylan : after working with paul unofficially , i just -- i just realized that i have to do something that i feel passionate about , you know ? i have so many skills that never come into play running a coffee shop . sharon : at least you know you 're gon na come home every night in one piece . does n't that mean something ? dylan : of course , yeah . but ... you know , working with my dad , just , uh , making paul proud , earning his respect -- you know , that means a lot to me , too . i know he was nervous , letting me work some cases at first . but now he finally trusts me to work alongside him . and i just want to do everything in my power to prove to paul that i am worthy of that trust . sharon : i understand that . i do . it 's just ... after everything we 've been through , everything that it 's taken to get to where we are now , and -- and i do n't want to become one of those women who are home every night with their baby , wondering if her husband 's gon na make it home alive . [ knock on door ] [ sighs ] hold that thought . chelsea , this is a surprise . what 's going on ? chelsea : adam 's missing , possibly kidnapped . so i need your husband . chelsea : i have some information i need to share with you . sharon : this is the case you 're helping paul with ? dylan : yeah , i was gon na tell you about it , but we -- we kind of got sidetracked . chelsea : nick , he -- he tried to get victor to reveal what he knows about adam 's kidnapping . sharon : wait . i do n't understand . if adam 's been kidnapped , why would n't victor just come forward with anything he knew ? chelsea : well , because victor -- it 's mostly his fault that adam 's in danger in the first place . dylan : what -- what did nick find out ? chelsea : well , victor kept up the charade that adam 's fine . i should n't be worried . but nick -- he overheard something . dylan : which was what ? chelsea : when he walked in , victor was talking about , uh , some girl , `` the girl . `` but then they -- they clammed up when nick walked in , so -- sharon : who 's this girl ? w - what does she have to do with adam ? chelsea : well , victor made up some nonsense story , and nick did n't believe him . that 's why i 'm here . i need some answers . dylan : yeah , okay . you said `` they `` clammed up . who was victor discussing it with ? chelsea : kevin . he was in the office when nick walked in . natalie : mariah said i 'm the girl in the ransom note ? kevin : mariah 's right . mariah : she 's been freaking out ever since . i keep telling her to chill . kevin : you 're safe , i promise ... for now . natalie : for now ? that does n't sound safe at all . kevin : we just have to be smart about this . natalie : and i 'm supposed to just take your word for that after what i saw on victor 's computer ? kevin : he thinks the santoris are behind this , and they want marisa . natalie : who ? mariah : seriously ? kevin : he had her detained by some of his men , and he 's planning on handing her over in exchange for adam . and he thinks it 's santori 's men he 's gon na give her to . natalie : which it 's not . mariah : w - what happens when these guys realize that marisa is n't the girl they 're after ? kevin : nothing good . mariah : so what are we gon na do ? kevin : well , i found a way to buy us some time with victor -- mariah : buying time is n't the answer here , kevin . you 've got to stop him from going through with this . if you do n't say something quick , there 's no telling what could happen to adam and marisa . you have got to tell victor that he 's got it wrong before he puts her on a plane . natalie : what -- so now you want to just hand me over ? do n't i get a vote ? kevin : okay , calm down . no one 's handing you over . we 're gon na keep you stashed here , okay ? you 're gon na keep working on your program . you 're gon na get the glitches worked out , and -- [ cell phone ringing ] kevin : hang on . hello ? dylan : hey , meet me at the station as soon as you can . kevin : i 'm on my way . i have to get to work . i 'm counting on you to look after natalie . keep her safe . keep her calm until we get this all worked out , okay ? [ both sigh ] [ door shuts ] dylan : i 'm anxious to hear what kevin has to say about the situation with adam . sharon : what makes you think kevin will know anything ? dylan : well , i asked him to do some digging to see if he could figure out what victor 's involvement is . i mean , he might not know who the girl is , but he 'll know if it 's important . chelsea : oh , god . i hope he finds something . dylan : yeah . me , too . chelsea : do you need a ride to the station ? dylan : no , i 'm good . i 'm gon na take my car . sharon : uh , stop . i 'm not letting you leave here so you can confront victor . mariah : would you like me to order some more wine ? would that get your creative juices flowing ? because i 'm not opposed to day - drinking , especially on a day like this . [ thump ] natalie : what was that ? mariah : oh , i do n't know . maybe it was a zombie hit man with a submachine gun . natalie : are you still trying to be nice , or are you being intentionally cruel now ? mariah : relax . it was probably a room service cart just hitting the wall , okay ? natalie : or it was the people who are after me . mariah : would you like me to go check ? natalie : yes . check . i 'll stay here . mariah : fine . i will go check , but keep working . when i get back , i want to hear keys clacking . [ chuckles ] all right . there 's nothing to worry about . it was just a kid bouncing -- natalie ? natalie ? ! damn it ! devon : so stitch is the guy that told you you do n't know anything about love ? abby : mm - hmm . devon : that 's kind of funny , actually . was n't i here that day ? abby : yes , you were . and , um , i talked to you after . devon : that 's right . you asked me what love feels like . abby : mm - hmm . and do you remember what you said ? devon : uh , yeah . i do . i said something about it has the ability to toss you around like a rag doll . abby : yes , and you said that if you could find someone to catch you after you 've been tossed around , that that 's what love was . and i remember it meant something to me . devon : well ... abby : but i thought that you were talking about roxy . but you were n't , were you ? devon : no , i was n't . i sure was n't . i was talking about hilary . abby : you were having an affair with your father 's wife . devon : hey , now . abby : wow . scandalous ! [ both laugh ] devon : you -- you did something -- you slept with your niece 's husband , did n't you ? abby : me ? no . yes . but we have all made mistakes . devon : a few , yeah . abby : but tell me . what do you think love feels like ? devon : again ? abby : yes , i am serious . devon : um ... abby : look , i know we 're in different spots in our life now . you 've been married . i 'm married . but ... i mean , is love the same ? is love different ? devon : no . no . love is -- love is the same . um ... we 're different . the situation is different . you know ? i , uh -- i do n't have anybody to catch me now . abby : she 'll come back to you ... once she remembers what you had . devon : maybe she will . but what about stitch ? i mean , he seems like the kind of guy who would be there to catch you . abby : he is . but ... ca n't catch everybody . sage : okay , she has n't seen us , so let 's just get out of here and get a jump on this romantic evening thing , please ? dr. anderson : hi . [ chuckles ] nick : hey . dr. anderson : wow . what a coincidence , running into each other . sage : is it ? nick : uh , you know , not really . i mean , it 's not the biggest town in the world , and this place does have the best coffee . dr. anderson : that 's true . hey , did n't you and sharon used to own this place ? sage : [ chuckles ] nick : we did . dr. anderson : ah . it 's , uh -- it 's nice to see you two out and about . how are things going ? sage : we 're great . we 're real great . we 're gon na continue to be great if you just stay the hell out of our lives . dr. anderson : i 'm -- i 'm -- i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to ... please , forgive me . sage : yeah . [ scoffs ] nick : what was that ? sage : what are you looking at me like that for ? you know how i feel about that woman . nick , look . you have n't wanted to see the situation for what it really is . but , honey , you got to open up your eyes . nick : can you just try and relax ? sage : do n't . do n't tell me to relax , honey . i have every right to be upset , okay ? this is n't me being unstable or hypersensitive or all those other things that she tells you about me . [ sighs ] okay , sharon thinks that she walks on water , but sharon is her patient . and that 's fine . apparently , she 's getting better under her care . but you and i are not her patients . and yet she 's nosing around in our business , giving us all this good advice , and none of it ever does any good . nick : okay , so , do you think dr. anderson is conspiring against us ? sage : you ca n't tell me that you do n't feel that a little bit . i mean , `` you and sharon , uh , used to own this place together `` ? what the heck was that ? [ chuckles ] i mean , everywhere we go , we see her . nick : all right , that 's definitely a bit of an exaggeration . sage : okay , i never even saw this woman before she started treating sharon , and now i see her everywhere . that 's not a coincidence , is it ? nick : maybe it 's because we did n't know her then . and now you do , it just seems like she 's everywhere . sage : okay , that is crazy , by the way . and you 're making excuses . nick : no . no , i 'm trying to come up with an explanation that will satisfy you . sage : [ chuckling ] ohh . i love you , but the woman is always around us , nick . she 's always around you , and she 's badmouthing me to you . i mean , it 's like she wants to come in between our relationship or something , which is totally strange . nick : why would dr. anderson want to do that ? sage : how would i know ? you 're asking the wrong person , here , honey . i 'm your wife , okay ? and there 's something up with that . and if you 're not interested in finding out what that is , then i 'm gon na do it , okay ? nick : uh ... dylan : victor does n't intimidate me . sharon : well , he should . dylan : okay . but paul entrusted me with this case . i ca n't worry about how victor or anybody else is gon na react to the investigation . sharon : i can tell you exactly how victor 's going to react . chelsea : sharon , please . adam is in trouble . i thought you of all people would want to make sure he gets home safe . sharon : yeah . of course . chelsea : dylan can help get to the bottom of all this . he may be the only person who can . dylan : i got to do this , okay ? i 'll be in touch as soon as i can , okay ? chelsea : [ sighs ] sharon : chelsea ! you do n't give a damn about anyone else . all you care about is getting what you want . chelsea : excuse me ? sharon : oh , what does it matter if dylan walks straight into victor 's buzzsaw ? chelsea : my husband is missing , sharon . i just want him home safe . victor refused to be straight with me , so dylan was my only other option . sharon : and you knew because he 's such a good man that he could n't refuse you . you played into his sympathies . you said all the right words , even with me -- reminding me of my feelings for adam . chelsea : where is all this coming from ? sharon : i remember the kind of person you used to be . i did n't forget . maybe everyone else did . but i remember when you manipulated dylan into getting what you wanted , and that was a father for connor . and now you 're being the same selfish person you used to be then . chelsea : okay . dylan insisted on helping me . i asked him for help . he jumped right in . this is n't about me , sharon . this is about you and dylan . noah : good to see you finally listening to reason , luca . luca : i 'm not interested in your opinion of me . all i care about is marisa . go up and check the suite . see if she 's back . while you 're doing that , i 'll call my father . mariah : [ sighs ] noah : whoa , hey . mariah : oh . noah : what 's the rush ? mariah : i 'm just trying to get down the stairs . hi . bye . noah : whoa , whoa . wait . hold up . mariah : noah , please . noah : w - what 's wrong ? and do n't say nothing , okay ? i know you do n't like to run . you were just sprinting down these steps . mariah : i 'm just really in a hurry . that 's all . noah : okay . why ? mariah : please ! noah : look . i 'm sorry i have n't been the world 's greatest brother lately , but that does n't mean i do n't care , okay ? tell me what 's going on . come on . talk to me . marisa : [ grunts softly ] [ gasps ] hello ? who 's there ? [ grunts ] who are you ? [ breathing heavily ] where am i ? mariah : everything 's fine . i 'm just spazzing because i had to cancel an appointment at the spa . noah : spa ? really ? okay . you in that big of a hurry to go get a facial ? mariah : uh , sharon gave me a gift card for my birthday . but i remembered that i had to be at the underground for a delivery , so i 'm headed there now . it 's stupid . anyway , i 've , uh -- i 've really got to go . i 'm sorry . devon : what exactly do you mean by , uh , stitch ca n't be there to catch everyone ? abby : i just mean that , uh , there are other people who need him that need him more than i do ... like his son . he 's here from another country , and his mom just passed away , which means that -- devon : geez . abby : yeah , i have to take a back seat . and you know me . i do n't like to take a back seat to anyone . devon : yeah . i think you will , though , this time . abby : mm . you ca n't be too sure about that . devon : no , i can . i think that you 're at a place in your life where you realize you 've found something real . and , you know , you 'll -- you 'll do anything you have to to keep it , even if that means taking a back seat from time to time . abby : is that true for you , too ? devon : you talking about hilary ? um , i - i do n't know . i do n't -- i 'm not -- i 'm not sure . it 's kind of complicated . abby : well , i bet you regret sitting down to talk to me right about now . [ both laugh ] devon : no , i do n't . i do n't . i mean , i thought i was gon na come over here and just say hi . i did n't think it would turn into such an intense conversation , but -- abby : yeah . we were a mess a year and a half ago , and we 're still a mess right now . devon : yeah . abby : so i think it 's about time we figure this out . devon : yeah . abby : but , please , do n't be a stranger . do n't wait so long to catch up . devon : it 's more than a deal . and , uh , make sure you think about what i said about the job . abby : i will . devon : yeah ? abby : mm - hmm . devon : okay . i 'll see you later . abby : all right . bye . devon : bye . abby : [ sighs ] dylan : i know you were with victor . tell me about this girl that you were discussing . chelsea has a feeling that it might be tied to what 's going on with adam . did victor tell you more than he told nick ? kevin : it 's not what victor knows . it 's what i know . dylan : all right . go on . kevin : victor 's missing a huge piece of information . he thinks he understands who the girl is , but he 's wrong . chelsea : look . i obviously stepped in the middle of something going on between you and dylan , okay ? i apologize . you think you 'd know by now you ca n't change people . sharon : oh , well , that 's ironic , coming from you . you -- you never tried to change adam ? you never asked him to leave victor or leave newman ? or did n't you once ask him to run off to paris with you and connor ? because i seem to remember that was your idea . chelsea : that 's fair . i guess it 's easier to dish out advice than it is to take it . sharon : glad you recognize that . chelsea : [ sighs ] all i care about right now , sharon , is getting adam home . i just wish he had stayed put and listened to me , but ... i guess he had to do what he had to do ... although i 'm certainly gon na let him have it when he gets back . sharon : well , i 'd say he deserves it . chelsea : my point is i 'm sorry i interrupted what was going on with you and dylan . but no matter what , he 's going to be fine . victor would never let him get hurt . [ chuckling ] he 'd have -- he 'd have nikki to deal with . sharon : nikki . yeah . now , there 's a woman who has spent her whole life trying to change her husband . chelsea : good luck . sharon : and it 's not that i want to change dylan . it 's just ... [ baby crying ] sharon : [ sighs ] looks like my son 's trying to speak for me . chelsea : they sometimes have a way of knowing when things are n't right in the world . sharon : everything 's been so perfect since sully and i came home . we 've all been so good and happy and safe , and i - i do n't want that to change . chelsea : and you think it 's going to change with dylan joining the force ? dr. anderson : nick . nick : oh . i did n't , uh , expect you to come back here . dr. anderson : i came in to buy coffee beans . never got the chance to buy them , so here i am . where 's sage ? nick : uh , she left . we had a disagreement . dr. anderson : i hope it was n't about me . nick : actually , it was . dr. anderson : i 'm sorry to hear that . i know , um , sage has n't welcomed my advice or concern . she does n't want to acknowledge she 's still struggling with the loss of her child , so i 'm the bad guy for bringing it up . the transference is not unexpected . nick : uh , sorry about that . dr. anderson : i can handle it . believe me , in my career , i 've had worse . [ chuckles ] nick : yeah , i think sage is just having a hard time understanding how our personal life is any of your business . dr. anderson : well , at first , i was just looking out for sharon . but along the way , i 've come to care for sage -- about both of you . nick : sage seems to think you only care about me . dr. anderson : anytime i 've reached out to you , it 's because i 've been concerned about sharon or sage ... and [ sighs ] and -- and yes , about you , as well . you 've had to endure so much . i just wanted to help you , nick . nick : that 's all there is to it ? dr. anderson : yes ! absolutely . nick : see , sandy , i want to believe you . and maybe it 's just because you 've gone so far above and beyond in your duties as sharon 's therapist . but you 're always so quick to offer me a sympathetic ear when i need one , or offer me some advice whenever you just happen to run into me . like right now -- i mean , you did n't just come back here for coffee , right ? please admit it . you came back here because you were hoping to run into me alone . dr. anderson : [ scoffs ] t - t - that 's preposterous . nick : is it ? see , i 'm starting to think sage is right . you do have an agenda . and i want to know what it is . sage : hi , nurse . i 'm hoping you can help me . nurse : i 'll try . what does this concern ? sage : dr. sandy anderson . i would love to see her credentials , maybe learn a little bit more about her background . you know , any information you can give me would be really helpful . chelsea : they are so precious when they 're this age . [ chuckling ] hi . sharon : [ laughs ] chelsea : hi . sharon : sounds like maybe you want another one . chelsea : uh ... well , adam and i , we 've -- we 've been talking about it . sharon : you know , i 'm sorry about before . um , i should 've been more sensitive to what you 're going through . chelsea : it 's okay , sharon . sharon : adam 's a survivor , more than anyone else i know , chelsea . chelsea : i just need dylan to find him and bring him home . luca : marisa 's not in our room ? noah : how 'd it go with your father ? luca : as expected . the santoris are not the ones holding adam , asking for marisa in exchange . noah : well , would he admit it , even if they were ? luca : look , my father is ruthless , but he 's no fool . he wants to be in business with victor newman . why risk that by kidnapping victor 's son ? what purpose would that serve ? noah : well , if that is true , we need to figure out a way to make my grandfather let marisa go , even if that means going to the police . marisa : help . help ! somebody help me ! [ breathing heavily ] please ! kevin : `` the girl `` is natalie , not marisa . victor 's about to make a bad mistake . dylan : [ sighs ] okay . so , uh , natalie , computer whiz from switzerland these people want to ransom adam for -- i mean , what is she worth ? kevin : her idea is worth billions . dylan : well , is it on her computer ? is it a hard drive ? what ? kevin : it 's in her head . dylan : in her head . okay . where is she right now ? kevin : she 's in a hotel where nobody can get to her . hey , what are you doing here ? mariah : hi . i need to talk to you in private . kevin : oh , if this is about our friend , you can talk in front of dylan . i 've brought him up to speed . mariah : okay , well , i wish our hacker buddy was willing to wait and see how things played out . kevin : what are you talking about ? mariah : she 's gone . natalie ran out on me . victor : get the girl ready to move . natalie : you have the wrong girl . victor : who are you ? [ next_on ] nick : we should talk about this . sage : talk about what ? nick : dr. anderson . dylan : when were you planning on notifying the police about adam 's kidnapping ? mariah : she sold the project twice ! victor is going to find out , and then he 's gon na come after us . | abby sits at a booth at the athletic club , deep in thought when devon joins her . abby reveals to him that stitch told her that she did n't know what love was . devon is surprised by this remark . in victor 's office , kevin and victor are having a chat about the `` girl `` that they want in exchange for adam . nick walks in and wants to know what they are talking about . after kevin leaves them alone , nick begins to ask victor who is holding adam hostage . victor refuses to give him any info . luca and noah join forces to find marisa . the camera shows marisa tied to a bed . in a room upstairs in the athletic club , mariah and natalie argue as to who the men are really after who are holding adam . at their home , dylan tells sharon that he has joined the police force as a detective . sharon is quite upset with this news . chelsea finds out that adam has been kidnapped . nick and sage are at the coffeehouse when dr. anderson walks in . sage tells him that dr. anderson is after him , but nick does n't quite believe her . | <s>[INST] chelsea : i knew it was irrational . adam travels on business all the time . [ sighs ] but we 'd just gotten home from the hospital and seeing billy and victoria and the abbotts , and there were so many tears , so many goodbyes . [ sighs ] so something just felt off about the timing . it just felt like it was n't a good time for adam to leave town . and i had this really bad feeling driving home from the hospital . so i told him . i told him to stay , and he told me that i was worrying for nothing . and he kissed -- kissed me goodbye , and he left . sage : and that 's the last time you heard from him ? chelsea : yeah . sage : huh . chelsea : it 's really unlike adam . he always reaches out to me when he 's traveling , always . he 'll -- he 'll , you know , text me sweet messages . for him to leave when he knew i was really uneasy about it and then go radio silent ... no . it 's -- it 's -- something 's wrong . sage : yeah , i - i can really understand why you 'd think that . chelsea : i should 've held my ground , you know ? i should 've forced him to stay . adam thinks he can take care of himself , but he ca n't . he never should 've gotten involved in this stupid war between victor and the santoris in the first place . sage : honey , we do n't know all the facts , all right ? listen , for all of victor 's faults , i do n't believe for one second that he 'd put his son in harm 's way . chelsea : when victor feels like something 's threatening his precious company , he becomes vicious . someone has to suffer . it 's just never victor . natalie : that looks like -- mariah : a ransom note . in exchange for adam , they want -- natalie : `` the girl . `` who is that ? who 's valuable enough to trade for adam newman ? mariah : it 's you . natalie , the girl is you . natalie : [ scoffs ] me ? mariah : yes . you 're the reason why adam is missing . in exchange for adam , they want you and your billion - dollar project . natalie : oh , my god . i told you they 're after me . mariah : the people you stole money from . natalie : the people who bought my security program . mariah : which you did n't deliver because it 's `` still in beta , `` which basically means it does n't work -- not that that stopped you from keeping their money . natalie : they must have decided to get to me through victor by kidnapping his son . mariah : yeah , people tend to react badly when they feel that they 've been double crossed . natalie : stop talking . i need to think . [ sighs ] oh , this is bad . this is so bad . i have to get out of here . mariah : hey , no , no . no , you do n't . you 're not going anywhere . nick : what girl are you talking about ? victor : it 's a young lady just out of college . she was interviewing for a job . nick : okay . why is that something you and kevin would be discussing ? kevin : she 's in it . her résumé was out on the desk , so ... victor : son , i 'm surprised to see you . is everything all right ? nick : well , you tell me . chelsea came to me . she 's worried sick that adam 's mixed up into something dangerous . victor : kevin , would you kindly give us a moment ? kevin : sure thing . victor : uh , do n't stay away too long , all right ? kevin : mm - hmm . [ door shuts ] nick : dad , chelsea is convinced you know more than you 're saying . so i 'm asking you , as your son . do you know what happened to adam ? victor : what do you think , son ? noah : hey . come here . hey . what are you doing ? luca : finding out where marisa is . noah : my grandfather 's not gon na tell you anything . luca : i 'm not afraid of victor , all right ? i 'm not afraid of him . and i 'm sure as hell not gon na let him use my wife as collateral to get adam back . noah : you 're going about this the wrong way , okay ? luca : hey , what are you doing here ? kevin : i 'm handling something for victor , not that it 's any of your concern . luca : if you know where he 's holding her , you better tell me . kevin : i have no idea what you 're talking about . noah : marisa 's gone , kevin . she disappeared . kevin : and you think that victor -- noah : i do n't know . it 's a long story , one that can not go public . but maybe if you could quietly tap in to the company 's surveillance system , we could find out what happened , maybe find out where they took her ? kevin : i 'm sorry . i ca n't . luca : ca n't or wo n't ? kevin : look , after the whole paragon mess , victor had extra firewalls installed into the system that are tough to get through , even for me . besides , the new cameras had n't been installed the night of billy 's accident . i still do n't think they 're up . noah : okay , but there 's got to be -- kevin : i 'm sorry . i ca n't . luca : convenient , how the cameras are never on when victor and his family do n't want them to be . dylan : okay , i 'm , uh -- i 'm a little confused . sharon : becoming a cop -- that 's the last thing that i would want for you , dylan . that 's a dangerous line of work . dylan : right . okay . when i -- when i first told you i wanted to do this , you were very supportive . sharon : and then harding got shot . and then you told me that you 'd reconsidered . you 'd said you were becoming a father , and you did n't want to put your family 's futures at risk . dylan : i did . i did say that at the time , yes . sharon : and that was a huge relief to me . so why would you change your mind now , especially now that sully 's here ? dylan : i know all the reasons that i need to be safe , and everything that i have to come home to , you know ? but i realize that it 's just something that i have to do . i need to do this . and i thought you would understand . sharon : no , i do n't . i do n't understand . i do n't like it . stitch : we 're gon na be working together , so let 's table all the discussion of love and just stick to business , okay ? abby : and why is that ? stitch : 'cause i do n't think you know anything about love , abby . abby : i 've been in love before , stitch . stitch : you say that , but , come on . how can that be true ? devon : abby . abby : devon , hey . devon : hey . abby : hey . [ chuckles ] standing there , i thought you were gon na tell me the specials . did you really cut back on the staff that much ? devon : that 's funny . no , i 'm not your waiter . abby : well , thank god , because i would n't know what to tip a billionaire . devon : ah , well , i just wanted to come over and say hi , but it looks like you 're busy . abby : this ? no , no . please , sit down . devon : you sure ? abby : yes . devon : these high - level operations you got going on here -- it 's intense . abby : no , it 's just some logistics reports . it 's nothing . devon : yeah ? abby : yeah . devon : look at you . this stuff 's , like , easy for you now , right ? miss coo . of the year over here . abby : oh , yeah , yeah . you know , lots of hard work and effort and , um ... no , i am not even thinking about this right now . this is just so boring . devon : well , that 's not good . you should , uh -- you should come work for us . abby : here , at the club ? yeah , i do n't know if you 're aware , but , um , customer service -- not really my thing . devon : you 're not exactly a `` the customer 's always right `` type of woman . abby : no , because usually , the customer is an idiot . devon : okay . okay . [ both laugh ] devon : nah , i was n't talking about the club . i was talking about , uh , our new venture with dr. neville and your mom . abby : oh . medical research . um ... yeah , i 'm not really qualified for that , but , uh , i guess that has n't stopped me before . devon : exactly , so you should at least think about it . abby : yeah . yeah . i mean , it would be fun to work with my mom , but , um ... i 'm kind of committed to newman right now . devon : you just said that stuff 's boring . abby : sometimes , yes . [ chuckles ] but i like working with victoria and my dad . devon : well , all i know is when i walked over here , whatever you were working on looked like it was giving you a headache , so , i mean , if that 's what you want out of a job ... abby : no . um ... actually , i - i was n't thinking about this . i was , um ... i was looking at that table over there . i was thinking about something . devon : why ? what about the table ? abby : about a year and a half ago , um , at that table right there , someone told me that i did n't know anything about love . devon : who told you that you did n't know anything about love ? was it a guy ? abby : yes , it was a guy . [ both laugh ] devon : and what did you do to this guy ? how 'd you respond ? abby : um ... i married him . mariah : you ca n't bail now . kevin and i stuck our necks out trying to keep you safe to help get your project off the ground . natalie : i know you 're not doing it out of the goodness of your heart . you 're in it for the money . that 's all anyone 's in it for . mariah : not kevin . he believes in the idea . he believes in you , natalie . he promised victor newman a fully functional program . if you disappear now , you 're gon na be putting him in a terrible , terrible position , not to mention you are gon na make victor newman furious . and take it from somebody who used to be one of his minions . that is not a guy you want to see furious . natalie : i had no intention of doing that . i 'm sure i could find a way to handle things with victor . mariah : [ sighs ] trust me , sweetheart . you are way out of your league . noah : what 's that supposed to mean , the comment about the cameras ? luca : of course victor would cover his tracks . that 's why i need to speak to the man , see what i can get out of him . noah : listen , luca . i know my grandfather . he 's not gon na tell you a damn thing , okay ? and he 's certainly not going to admit he had anything to do with marisa 's disappearance . it 'd be the only leverage he would have for getting adam back . luca : okay , so , then , what do you suggest ? noah : i suggest we go somewhere else . my grandfather sees you right now , it 's just gon na antagonize him . it 'd be bad for you , bad for marisa . go somewhere private and call your father . you find out when the exchange is taking place . luca : no , i already told you . my father is n't responsible for any of this . noah : that 's your opinion . luca : no , no , no . it 's the truth , noah . noah : only one way to find out , luca . you coming or not ? victor : i assure you , chelsea is overreacting . nick : that 's not like her . victor : son , she 's letting her emotions run away with her , all right ? adam has n't answered her texts or her phone calls or whatever , so now she thinks the worst , probably because of billy abbott . nick : well , it seems to me chelsea has reason to question what 's going on . it 's not like adam to stay so out of touch . he has n't called . he has n't texted -- nothing . victor : that does n't mean that adam is missing . nick : have you talked to him ? victor : i 've talked to the people that he is meeting with , all right ? nick : the santoris . victor : why the hell did chelsea bring you into this ? i asked her not to over- dramatize things . why is she doing this ? nick : you make it sound like we 're trying to create problems . that 's not the case . look , dad . if you and adam are in some trouble , then tell me . let me help . victor : son , i told you . there 's nothing to worry about , but thank you for your concern . now please kindly convey that to chelsea . nick : so , in other words , just stay out of it . victor : nicholas , did n't you and i talk about the fact that you should devote your time now to your marriage and heal that ? i mean , you and sage have gone through a lot . do n't concern yourself with adam 's situation . it will be resolved . then he 'll come back . i guarantee it . sage : did you hear from your father ? nick : yeah , it was kind of the usual -- kind of like talking to a wall . i 'm sorry , chelsea . i tried , but i could n't get anything out of him . chelsea : victor would n't tell you anything ? any little detail might help , nick . nick : when i walked in , he and kevin were talking , and they mentioned `` the girl , `` uh , whatever that means . chelsea : who were they talking about ? nick : i do n't know . dad quickly changed the subject and tried to explain it . and honestly , i could n't even tell if it was important or not . then i asked dad about adam and the santoris , and he just said that adam was away on business , he was very busy , and that we should definitely try and stay out of it . chelsea : like hell i will . nick : i 'm sorry -- [ sighs ] sage : [ sighs ] i 'm really worried about adam , too . i mean , i know she 's got the police on it . somebody 's bound to figure out where he is . she 's certainly not gon na give up until she finds him . but maybe he 'll call her and have a good explanation for why she has n't heard from him . nick : i hope you 're right . you know , in the beginning , when dad kind of froze me out of newman enterprises , i was , uh ... i resented it . sage : mm - hmm . yeah . how you feel about that now ? nick : now i 'm just glad i 'm out of there . sage : [ laughs ] yeah . nick : got a lot of free time . i can focus on you . in fact ... sage : stop . nick : ... what are you doing later ? you want to go on a date with me ? sage : ooh , a date ? well , then , uh , what do you have in mind ? you 've got to be kidding me . natalie : how did this happen , all these ruthless people coming after me ? mariah : will you relax ? this does n't have to be a disaster . natalie : i have people who are willing to kidnap a billionaire 's son to get their hands on me so that i 'll honor our deal . then there 's victor newman on the other side , who you 've basically said is the prince of darkness . and he thinks it 's his deal . how is that not a disaster ? mariah : we will figure a way out of this . victor newman can either be your best friend or your worst enemy . and you have something that he wants . so the best way to get on his good side is to give the man a return on his investment . natalie : how the hell am i supposed to do that when my program 's all glitched up ? mariah : get back to work and un - glitch it . natalie : [ sighs ] mariah : [ sighs ] victor : i need you to trace the origin of that e - mail , all right ? i know the santoris are holding adam , but i need to know where before i make the trade . kevin : you mean trade `` the girl . `` who is she , by the way ? victor : marisa . luca 's parents do not like her . they want her out of their son 's life . kevin : so you 're just gon na hand her over just like that ? victor : i want my son back . got a problem with that ? kevin : no , of course not . but what if it 's not luca 's family ? what if it 's somebody else ? uh , with all due respect , you -- you have other enemies . victor : would you kindly trace the e - mail ? kevin : yeah . this e - mail is encrypted . this could take some time . victor : kevin ! kevin : okay . you know what ? i will make a copy of it so i can keep working on it . victor : please make it happen , all right ? i ca n't stall these people for much longer . kevin : okay . i 've got it . dylan : after working with paul unofficially , i just -- i just realized that i have to do something that i feel passionate about , you know ? i have so many skills that never come into play running a coffee shop . sharon : at least you know you 're gon na come home every night in one piece . does n't that mean something ? dylan : of course , yeah . but ... you know , working with my dad , just , uh , making paul proud , earning his respect -- you know , that means a lot to me , too . i know he was nervous , letting me work some cases at first . but now he finally trusts me to work alongside him . and i just want to do everything in my power to prove to paul that i am worthy of that trust . sharon : i understand that . i do . it 's just ... after everything we 've been through , everything that it 's taken to get to where we are now , and -- and i do n't want to become one of those women who are home every night with their baby , wondering if her husband 's gon na make it home alive . [ knock on door ] [ sighs ] hold that thought . chelsea , this is a surprise . what 's going on ? chelsea : adam 's missing , possibly kidnapped . so i need your husband . chelsea : i have some information i need to share with you . sharon : this is the case you 're helping paul with ? dylan : yeah , i was gon na tell you about it , but we -- we kind of got sidetracked . chelsea : nick , he -- he tried to get victor to reveal what he knows about adam 's kidnapping . sharon : wait . i do n't understand . if adam 's been kidnapped , why would n't victor just come forward with anything he knew ? chelsea : well , because victor -- it 's mostly his fault that adam 's in danger in the first place . dylan : what -- what did nick find out ? chelsea : well , victor kept up the charade that adam 's fine . i should n't be worried . but nick -- he overheard something . dylan : which was what ? chelsea : when he walked in , victor was talking about , uh , some girl , `` the girl . `` but then they -- they clammed up when nick walked in , so -- sharon : who 's this girl ? w - what does she have to do with adam ? chelsea : well , victor made up some nonsense story , and nick did n't believe him . that 's why i 'm here . i need some answers . dylan : yeah , okay . you said `` they `` clammed up . who was victor discussing it with ? chelsea : kevin . he was in the office when nick walked in . natalie : mariah said i 'm the girl in the ransom note ? kevin : mariah 's right . mariah : she 's been freaking out ever since . i keep telling her to chill . kevin : you 're safe , i promise ... for now . natalie : for now ? that does n't sound safe at all . kevin : we just have to be smart about this . natalie : and i 'm supposed to just take your word for that after what i saw on victor 's computer ? kevin : he thinks the santoris are behind this , and they want marisa . natalie : who ? mariah : seriously ? kevin : he had her detained by some of his men , and he 's planning on handing her over in exchange for adam . and he thinks it 's santori 's men he 's gon na give her to . natalie : which it 's not . mariah : w - what happens when these guys realize that marisa is n't the girl they 're after ? kevin : nothing good . mariah : so what are we gon na do ? kevin : well , i found a way to buy us some time with victor -- mariah : buying time is n't the answer here , kevin . you 've got to stop him from going through with this . if you do n't say something quick , there 's no telling what could happen to adam and marisa . you have got to tell victor that he 's got it wrong before he puts her on a plane . natalie : what -- so now you want to just hand me over ? do n't i get a vote ? kevin : okay , calm down . no one 's handing you over . we 're gon na keep you stashed here , okay ? you 're gon na keep working on your program . you 're gon na get the glitches worked out , and -- [ cell phone ringing ] kevin : hang on . hello ? dylan : hey , meet me at the station as soon as you can . kevin : i 'm on my way . i have to get to work . i 'm counting on you to look after natalie . keep her safe . keep her calm until we get this all worked out , okay ? [ both sigh ] [ door shuts ] dylan : i 'm anxious to hear what kevin has to say about the situation with adam . sharon : what makes you think kevin will know anything ? dylan : well , i asked him to do some digging to see if he could figure out what victor 's involvement is . i mean , he might not know who the girl is , but he 'll know if it 's important . chelsea : oh , god . i hope he finds something . dylan : yeah . me , too . chelsea : do you need a ride to the station ? dylan : no , i 'm good . i 'm gon na take my car . sharon : uh , stop . i 'm not letting you leave here so you can confront victor . mariah : would you like me to order some more wine ? would that get your creative juices flowing ? because i 'm not opposed to day - drinking , especially on a day like this . [ thump ] natalie : what was that ? mariah : oh , i do n't know . maybe it was a zombie hit man with a submachine gun . natalie : are you still trying to be nice , or are you being intentionally cruel now ? mariah : relax . it was probably a room service cart just hitting the wall , okay ? natalie : or it was the people who are after me . mariah : would you like me to go check ? natalie : yes . check . i 'll stay here . mariah : fine . i will go check , but keep working . when i get back , i want to hear keys clacking . [ chuckles ] all right . there 's nothing to worry about . it was just a kid bouncing -- natalie ? natalie ? ! damn it ! devon : so stitch is the guy that told you you do n't know anything about love ? abby : mm - hmm . devon : that 's kind of funny , actually . was n't i here that day ? abby : yes , you were . and , um , i talked to you after . devon : that 's right . you asked me what love feels like . abby : mm - hmm . and do you remember what you said ? devon : uh , yeah . i do . i said something about it has the ability to toss you around like a rag doll . abby : yes , and you said that if you could find someone to catch you after you 've been tossed around , that that 's what love was . and i remember it meant something to me . devon : well ... abby : but i thought that you were talking about roxy . but you were n't , were you ? devon : no , i was n't . i sure was n't . i was talking about hilary . abby : you were having an affair with your father 's wife . devon : hey , now . abby : wow . scandalous ! [ both laugh ] devon : you -- you did something -- you slept with your niece 's husband , did n't you ? abby : me ? no . yes . but we have all made mistakes . devon : a few , yeah . abby : but tell me . what do you think love feels like ? devon : again ? abby : yes , i am serious . devon : um ... abby : look , i know we 're in different spots in our life now . you 've been married . i 'm married . but ... i mean , is love the same ? is love different ? devon : no . no . love is -- love is the same . um ... we 're different . the situation is different . you know ? i , uh -- i do n't have anybody to catch me now . abby : she 'll come back to you ... once she remembers what you had . devon : maybe she will . but what about stitch ? i mean , he seems like the kind of guy who would be there to catch you . abby : he is . but ... ca n't catch everybody . sage : okay , she has n't seen us , so let 's just get out of here and get a jump on this romantic evening thing , please ? dr. anderson : hi . [ chuckles ] nick : hey . dr. anderson : wow . what a coincidence , running into each other . sage : is it ? nick : uh , you know , not really . i mean , it 's not the biggest town in the world , and this place does have the best coffee . dr. anderson : that 's true . hey , did n't you and sharon used to own this place ? sage : [ chuckles ] nick : we did . dr. anderson : ah . it 's , uh -- it 's nice to see you two out and about . how are things going ? sage : we 're great . we 're real great . we 're gon na continue to be great if you just stay the hell out of our lives . dr. anderson : i 'm -- i 'm -- i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to ... please , forgive me . sage : yeah . [ scoffs ] nick : what was that ? sage : what are you looking at me like that for ? you know how i feel about that woman . nick , look . you have n't wanted to see the situation for what it really is . but , honey , you got to open up your eyes . nick : can you just try and relax ? sage : do n't . do n't tell me to relax , honey . i have every right to be upset , okay ? this is n't me being unstable or hypersensitive or all those other things that she tells you about me . [ sighs ] okay , sharon thinks that she walks on water , but sharon is her patient . and that 's fine . apparently , she 's getting better under her care . but you and i are not her patients . and yet she 's nosing around in our business , giving us all this good advice , and none of it ever does any good . nick : okay , so , do you think dr. anderson is conspiring against us ? sage : you ca n't tell me that you do n't feel that a little bit . i mean , `` you and sharon , uh , used to own this place together `` ? what the heck was that ? [ chuckles ] i mean , everywhere we go , we see her . nick : all right , that 's definitely a bit of an exaggeration . sage : okay , i never even saw this woman before she started treating sharon , and now i see her everywhere . that 's not a coincidence , is it ? nick : maybe it 's because we did n't know her then . and now you do , it just seems like she 's everywhere . sage : okay , that is crazy , by the way . and you 're making excuses . nick : no . no , i 'm trying to come up with an explanation that will satisfy you . sage : [ chuckling ] ohh . i love you , but the woman is always around us , nick . she 's always around you , and she 's badmouthing me to you . i mean , it 's like she wants to come in between our relationship or something , which is totally strange . nick : why would dr. anderson want to do that ? sage : how would i know ? you 're asking the wrong person , here , honey . i 'm your wife , okay ? and there 's something up with that . and if you 're not interested in finding out what that is , then i 'm gon na do it , okay ? nick : uh ... dylan : victor does n't intimidate me . sharon : well , he should . dylan : okay . but paul entrusted me with this case . i ca n't worry about how victor or anybody else is gon na react to the investigation . sharon : i can tell you exactly how victor 's going to react . chelsea : sharon , please . adam is in trouble . i thought you of all people would want to make sure he gets home safe . sharon : yeah . of course . chelsea : dylan can help get to the bottom of all this . he may be the only person who can . dylan : i got to do this , okay ? i 'll be in touch as soon as i can , okay ? chelsea : [ sighs ] sharon : chelsea ! you do n't give a damn about anyone else . all you care about is getting what you want . chelsea : excuse me ? sharon : oh , what does it matter if dylan walks straight into victor 's buzzsaw ? chelsea : my husband is missing , sharon . i just want him home safe . victor refused to be straight with me , so dylan was my only other option . sharon : and you knew because he 's such a good man that he could n't refuse you . you played into his sympathies . you said all the right words , even with me -- reminding me of my feelings for adam . chelsea : where is all this coming from ? sharon : i remember the kind of person you used to be . i did n't forget . maybe everyone else did . but i remember when you manipulated dylan into getting what you wanted , and that was a father for connor . and now you 're being the same selfish person you used to be then . chelsea : okay . dylan insisted on helping me . i asked him for help . he jumped right in . this is n't about me , sharon . this is about you and dylan . noah : good to see you finally listening to reason , luca . luca : i 'm not interested in your opinion of me . all i care about is marisa . go up and check the suite . see if she 's back . while you 're doing that , i 'll call my father . mariah : [ sighs ] noah : whoa , hey . mariah : oh . noah : what 's the rush ? mariah : i 'm just trying to get down the stairs . hi . bye . noah : whoa , whoa . wait . hold up . mariah : noah , please . noah : w - what 's wrong ? and do n't say nothing , okay ? i know you do n't like to run . you were just sprinting down these steps . mariah : i 'm just really in a hurry . that 's all . noah : okay . why ? mariah : please ! noah : look . i 'm sorry i have n't been the world 's greatest brother lately , but that does n't mean i do n't care , okay ? tell me what 's going on . come on . talk to me . marisa : [ grunts softly ] [ gasps ] hello ? who 's there ? [ grunts ] who are you ? [ breathing heavily ] where am i ? mariah : everything 's fine . i 'm just spazzing because i had to cancel an appointment at the spa . noah : spa ? really ? okay . you in that big of a hurry to go get a facial ? mariah : uh , sharon gave me a gift card for my birthday . but i remembered that i had to be at the underground for a delivery , so i 'm headed there now . it 's stupid . anyway , i 've , uh -- i 've really got to go . i 'm sorry . devon : what exactly do you mean by , uh , stitch ca n't be there to catch everyone ? abby : i just mean that , uh , there are other people who need him that need him more than i do ... like his son . he 's here from another country , and his mom just passed away , which means that -- devon : geez . abby : yeah , i have to take a back seat . and you know me . i do n't like to take a back seat to anyone . devon : yeah . i think you will , though , this time . abby : mm . you ca n't be too sure about that . devon : no , i can . i think that you 're at a place in your life where you realize you 've found something real . and , you know , you 'll -- you 'll do anything you have to to keep it , even if that means taking a back seat from time to time . abby : is that true for you , too ? devon : you talking about hilary ? um , i - i do n't know . i do n't -- i 'm not -- i 'm not sure . it 's kind of complicated . abby : well , i bet you regret sitting down to talk to me right about now . [ both laugh ] devon : no , i do n't . i do n't . i mean , i thought i was gon na come over here and just say hi . i did n't think it would turn into such an intense conversation , but -- abby : yeah . we were a mess a year and a half ago , and we 're still a mess right now . devon : yeah . abby : so i think it 's about time we figure this out . devon : yeah . abby : but , please , do n't be a stranger . do n't wait so long to catch up . devon : it 's more than a deal . and , uh , make sure you think about what i said about the job . abby : i will . devon : yeah ? abby : mm - hmm . devon : okay . i 'll see you later . abby : all right . bye . devon : bye . abby : [ sighs ] dylan : i know you were with victor . tell me about this girl that you were discussing . chelsea has a feeling that it might be tied to what 's going on with adam . did victor tell you more than he told nick ? kevin : it 's not what victor knows . it 's what i know . dylan : all right . go on . kevin : victor 's missing a huge piece of information . he thinks he understands who the girl is , but he 's wrong . chelsea : look . i obviously stepped in the middle of something going on between you and dylan , okay ? i apologize . you think you 'd know by now you ca n't change people . sharon : oh , well , that 's ironic , coming from you . you -- you never tried to change adam ? you never asked him to leave victor or leave newman ? or did n't you once ask him to run off to paris with you and connor ? because i seem to remember that was your idea . chelsea : that 's fair . i guess it 's easier to dish out advice than it is to take it . sharon : glad you recognize that . chelsea : [ sighs ] all i care about right now , sharon , is getting adam home . i just wish he had stayed put and listened to me , but ... i guess he had to do what he had to do ... although i 'm certainly gon na let him have it when he gets back . sharon : well , i 'd say he deserves it . chelsea : my point is i 'm sorry i interrupted what was going on with you and dylan . but no matter what , he 's going to be fine . victor would never let him get hurt . [ chuckling ] he 'd have -- he 'd have nikki to deal with . sharon : nikki . yeah . now , there 's a woman who has spent her whole life trying to change her husband . chelsea : good luck . sharon : and it 's not that i want to change dylan . it 's just ... [ baby crying ] sharon : [ sighs ] looks like my son 's trying to speak for me . chelsea : they sometimes have a way of knowing when things are n't right in the world . sharon : everything 's been so perfect since sully and i came home . we 've all been so good and happy and safe , and i - i do n't want that to change . chelsea : and you think it 's going to change with dylan joining the force ? dr. anderson : nick . nick : oh . i did n't , uh , expect you to come back here . dr. anderson : i came in to buy coffee beans . never got the chance to buy them , so here i am . where 's sage ? nick : uh , she left . we had a disagreement . dr. anderson : i hope it was n't about me . nick : actually , it was . dr. anderson : i 'm sorry to hear that . i know , um , sage has n't welcomed my advice or concern . she does n't want to acknowledge she 's still struggling with the loss of her child , so i 'm the bad guy for bringing it up . the transference is not unexpected . nick : uh , sorry about that . dr. anderson : i can handle it . believe me , in my career , i 've had worse . [ chuckles ] nick : yeah , i think sage is just having a hard time understanding how our personal life is any of your business . dr. anderson : well , at first , i was just looking out for sharon . but along the way , i 've come to care for sage -- about both of you . nick : sage seems to think you only care about me . dr. anderson : anytime i 've reached out to you , it 's because i 've been concerned about sharon or sage ... and [ sighs ] and -- and yes , about you , as well . you 've had to endure so much . i just wanted to help you , nick . nick : that 's all there is to it ? dr. anderson : yes ! absolutely . nick : see , sandy , i want to believe you . and maybe it 's just because you 've gone so far above and beyond in your duties as sharon 's therapist . but you 're always so quick to offer me a sympathetic ear when i need one , or offer me some advice whenever you just happen to run into me . like right now -- i mean , you did n't just come back here for coffee , right ? please admit it . you came back here because you were hoping to run into me alone . dr. anderson : [ scoffs ] t - t - that 's preposterous . nick : is it ? see , i 'm starting to think sage is right . you do have an agenda . and i want to know what it is . sage : hi , nurse . i 'm hoping you can help me . nurse : i 'll try . what does this concern ? sage : dr. sandy anderson . i would love to see her credentials , maybe learn a little bit more about her background . you know , any information you can give me would be really helpful . chelsea : they are so precious when they 're this age . [ chuckling ] hi . sharon : [ laughs ] chelsea : hi . sharon : sounds like maybe you want another one . chelsea : uh ... well , adam and i , we 've -- we 've been talking about it . sharon : you know , i 'm sorry about before . um , i should 've been more sensitive to what you 're going through . chelsea : it 's okay , sharon . sharon : adam 's a survivor , more than anyone else i know , chelsea . chelsea : i just need dylan to find him and bring him home . luca : marisa 's not in our room ? noah : how 'd it go with your father ? luca : as expected . the santoris are not the ones holding adam , asking for marisa in exchange . noah : well , would he admit it , even if they were ? luca : look , my father is ruthless , but he 's no fool . he wants to be in business with victor newman . why risk that by kidnapping victor 's son ? what purpose would that serve ? noah : well , if that is true , we need to figure out a way to make my grandfather let marisa go , even if that means going to the police . marisa : help . help ! somebody help me ! [ breathing heavily ] please ! kevin : `` the girl `` is natalie , not marisa . victor 's about to make a bad mistake . dylan : [ sighs ] okay . so , uh , natalie , computer whiz from switzerland these people want to ransom adam for -- i mean , what is she worth ? kevin : her idea is worth billions . dylan : well , is it on her computer ? is it a hard drive ? what ? kevin : it 's in her head . dylan : in her head . okay . where is she right now ? kevin : she 's in a hotel where nobody can get to her . hey , what are you doing here ? mariah : hi . i need to talk to you in private . kevin : oh , if this is about our friend , you can talk in front of dylan . i 've brought him up to speed . mariah : okay , well , i wish our hacker buddy was willing to wait and see how things played out . kevin : what are you talking about ? mariah : she 's gone . natalie ran out on me . victor : get the girl ready to move . natalie : you have the wrong girl . victor : who are you ?

[ scene_break ] blair : i think maybe i would n't feel so lost if jack just showed the slightest sign of remorse , but he does n't . i just feel like maybe , you know , he just needs something to jump - start his heart . téa : do you have something in mind ? blair : well , i was thinking maybe i would take him over to , you know , gigi 's funeral . but then i thought , well , you know , that 's just gon na cause a big scene . téa : yeah . i do n't think that would be such a good idea . probably do more harm than good . but , uh ... blair : what ? téa : well , maybe if the two of us went to offer our condolences , it might make us feel a little better .

[ scene_break ] echo : i know this is a horrible day , but maybe you could go a little easy on roxy . rex : since when do you care about roxy ? echo : i care about you , and i do n't think now is the time to be alienating the people who love you and shane . rex : thank you , but i think i have everything under control . echo : by using clint 's money ? i thought your goal was to stop clint from getting gigi 's heart , not use it to get rich . rex : do you think that 's why i did this -- to profit from gigi 's death ? echo : rex -- rex : bargaining with clint was the only way to get justice for gigi . thanks to todd manning , jack will never have to pay for what he did . not by the justice system anyway , but there are other ways to make them pay . echo : you think using clint 's money is the way to help make that happen ? rex : why not ? right now i have just as much power and influence as todd . pretty soon i 'll have the upper hand . [ scene_break ] jack : what 's wrong ? todd : i was about to close a deal , and some company stole it right out from under me . jack : well , who ? who stole what -- todd : shut up ! clean that stuff up ! hey , some japanese company took a satellite i wanted . so i want you to find out what the hell origami cogs is -- who owns them , ok ? so we can start paying them back .

sarah : are you blackmailing me ? if you 're worried about that little scare that julie had earlier , the elevated heart rate , the team double checked her pacemaker , and it 's working just fine . tachycardia can happen even with a pacemaker , so it 's really nothing to worry about . lani : thank you for that information , but about the pacemaker itself -- gabi : what about it ? jj : any sign of jordan ? ben : no , she and david are both gone . jj : i 'm sorry . ben : no , it 's not your fault , man ; look , i need to track her down before she makes her next move . jj : well , i 'll go with you . ben : no , no , not a chance . you need to let me get you to the hospital . jj : okay , better idea . i 'm gon na get myself to the hospital . you need to go find jordan . ben : jj , that could be serious . jj : i 'm a professional , okay ?

rafe : well , i ca n't just sit here , all right ? i need to do something . gabi : you 're gon na be fine . i 'm gon na find eli , and we will take care of this . rafe : eli ? gabi : yes . eli . rafe : okay , eli . gabi : yes . rafe : find him . gabi : i will . i will . would you just -- i 'm sorry . would you please look after my brother while i 'm gone ? haley : the man is not going anywhere . gabi : okay . eric : sarah 's still here ? xander : turns out maggie tugged at her heart strings , convinced her to stay for eli and lani 's wedding . you know how those hortons love a big family to- do . and i 'll be right in the thick of it . you 're looking at sarah 's date . eric : how the hell did you force her into taking you ? xander : maggie convinced you to stick around for eli and lani 's wedding . i wan na be your plus one . sarah : yeah , no . xander : oh , come on , it 'll be so much fun . sarah : oh , maybe for you . if i take you was my date , i will never hear the end of it . xander : i 'm sure you can handle any flack that comes your way -- come on . i 've gone above and beyond to keep your secret about eric 's baby . do n't you think i deserve just a little something ? sarah : are you blackmailing me ? if you 're worried about that little scare that julie had earlier , the elevated heart rate , the team double checked her pacemaker , and it 's working just fine . tachycardia can happen even with a pacemaker , so it 's really nothing to worry about . lani : thank you for that information , but about the pacemaker itself -- gabi : what about it ? jj : any sign of jordan ? ben : no , she and david are both gone . jj : i 'm sorry . ben : no , it 's not your fault , man ; look , i need to track her down before she makes her next move . jj : well , i 'll go with you . ben : no , no , not a chance . you need to let me get you to the hospital . jj : okay , better idea . i 'm gon na get myself to the hospital . you need to go find jordan . ben : jj , that could be serious . jj : i 'm a professional , okay ? i got it , all right ? so you need to go find jordan and the baby . ben : thank you . [ door slams ] ciara : you think ben is trying to hurt me again ? jordan : i warned you how many times , ciara , but you refused to believe me . right there , is that ben 's jacket ? maybe you should check the pockets . [ dramatic music ] ciara : oh , wait , there is something in here actually . here it is . you know , ben 's been looking everywhere for this , but , uh , it 's hardly evidence that he would try to kill me . jordan : check again , okay ? check all the pockets . ciara : you know what , maybe -- maybe i could hold david and you could check the pockets . xander : i did n't force sarah into anything . she wants me to go to the wedding . she 's felt a bit awkward about going solo , so xander to the rescue , and now she does n't have to . eric : going alone would be a better choice than with you . xander : ca n't beat a good wedding though , can you ? all that love in the air , the romance . who knows ? by day 's end , our sweet , sweet dr . horton might just take a swing on my vine . eric : shut up . why do n't you just stay the hell away from sarah . gabi : i 'm interrupting . oh , i need to talk to you privately . it 's , um , important . lani : okay . sarah : all right , well , if you have any questions for me about julie 's pacemaker , just feel free to give me a call . otherwise , i 'll see you tomorrow . gabi : what the hell was that ? lani : gabi , look -- gabi : it looked like you were about to do something very stupid . it looked like you were gon na tell dr . horton what i did to julie 's pacemaker . lani : i was just about to ask her a question . gabi : yeah , about the pacemaker . i heard . did you think that dr . horton was gon na have it removed without me finding out ? that would be impossible . see , if anybody touches or tampers with that equipment , i 'm gon na find out . instantly . and then ... and then i 'm gon na blow julie 's heart into smithereens , okay ? before anybody can touch that pacemaker . so why do n't you just keep your mouth shut . up until tomorrow of course when you dump eli at the altar . is that clear ? eli : what 's going on ? rafe : okay , well , thanks for the update . i 'm glad to hear that ari 's okay . and obviously i 'm really sorry . i never would have had jordan anywhere near ari if i knew that she was as dangerous as she is . okay , man . thanks , yeah , i 'll be in touch .

victoa : mother , this is n't the time . nikki : obviously , you know something . you know something that you do n't want me to know . victoria : look , just i do n't think this should be our priority right now . nikki : i want to know why this happened ! nick : i already told you that . nikki : yeah , you said it has to do with your father . i do n't know what that means . nick : you know , maybe vic 's right . we should just let it alone for now . nikki : you are all hiding something from me . what are you hiding ? damn it ! will you tell me ? victor : there 's no sense ... nikki : what ? victor : in getting into it now . it 'll only make things worse . nikki : this is absolute insanity . i come back to town to hear that cassie may be dying , and not one member of my family can be honest with me and tell me what is happening ? what the hell is wrong with us ? jack : what 's with all the attitude toward drucilla ? ashley : well , she 's not the only black model around . besides , she 's hardly a fresh face . jack : hey , if that 's a slam on her age , she does kind of fit the demographic . ashley : do n't you think she 's a little long in the tooth ? jack : well , obviously , you do . ashley : if this acquisition goes through , we 're gon na be launching a very important new cosmetics line , and we have to make sure we have exactly the right persona to represent us . jack : i agree with everything you just said . ashley : you did n't promise her anything . jack : i can not believe all this negativity . ashley : well , why ? her experience lies mostly in europe in high fashion . very little cosmetics work . jack : with the audience we 're going after , that 's a dual advantage . she 's high - profile in that community , and she has n't been associated with any of our direct competitors . ashley : okay , okay , lelet 's just think about other options before you put a pen in her hand , please . that 's why i 'm here . jack : what are these , concept tests ? ashley : yeah , would you tweak the descriptions before i start recruiting ? oh , i 'm sorry . am i boring you ? jack : not any more than usual . ashley : very funny . oh , i get it . sleepless nights , huh ? not easy having a toddler in the house ? jack : you , on the other hand . ashley : what ? jack : i do n't know . you seem kind of -- aleley : happy ? jack : is that the word i 'm looking for ? ashley : well , things are going pretty well for brad and me . jack : really ? when did this happen ? ashley : just lately . our issues are not behind us , but we 've recommitted to our marriage . jack : well , no wonder you 're glowing . honestly , you look like a million bucks . ashley : well , if i 'm glowing , it 's because of another reason . i 'm pregnant . jack : what ? paul : you know , isabella , i do n't understand why this miss simmons has you so upset . what 's the history between you two ? isabella : she was here the other day , came knocking at the door , making me believe she was a parole officer , asking bogus questions about my ex - husband . paul : and you 're sure it 's the same person , and not confusing -- isabella : i 'm not blind . yes , i 'm sure . she did n't ask you anything about me , about us ? paul : no , no , nothing . we were chatting at the coffeehouse . isabella : there 's something strange about that woman , paul , something i do n't buy , and i ca n't put my finger on it . paul : so why would she make you wan na believe that she was a parole officer ? isabella : i do n't know . that 's why i have michael looking into it for me . paul : baldwin ? isabella : yes , and he checked her out , and she 's a phony . paul : so why the hell did you go to baldwin ? isabella : because i ca n't come to you , at the level we 've been communicating at these days -- paul : oh , still baldwin ? you could have come to me . isabella : what would have been the point ? no , you are not there for me . so you do n't get to diatate who i can talk to . paul : you know what ? you 're the one that walked out on ricky and me . isabella : because you admitted to having sex with christine ! paul : fine ! isabella : and you still have to see her again . you call that being there for me , being a husband ? paul : so you told baldwin about what happened between chris and me ? isabella : no , do n't act like you 're the victim , paul . it did n't `` happen . `` you did it ! paul : oh , yeah , right . you know , there 's something getting even there . that 's why you went to baldwin . isabella : no , i just needed someone to talk to . paul : someone to talk to ? about a parole officer inquiring about your ex- husband , not about my personal life . isabella : you k ow what ? i do n't need to explain to you why i went to michael and told him what i told him ! i needed advice ! i needed help ! i needed someone to talk to ! that 's all i 'm gon na say about it . paul : so ... isabella : so i did n't come here to fight with you . paul : no , sure , you came here to see ricky . he 's in the bedroom . isabella : yeah , but i do n't want to just visit my son . this is my he . e . lynne : i thought i heard -- chris , are you all right ? chris : yeah , it 's been kind of a rough night . lynne : you too ? chris : paul knows . lynne : that kelly simmons is you ? chris : there is no more kelly simmons . lynne : are n't you kind of relieved ? chris : i suppose . lynne : i admire you for having the guts to tell paul . chris : i didn't . it was like i had a tiger by the tail . i did n't know how to let go and say , `` surprise , guess what ? it 's me . `` lynne : so then what happened ? he saw thrghhehe disguise ? chris : yeah , it 's a miracle that he did n't before now . lynne : yeah , he 's had so much on his mind . it 's kind of ironic , in fact . i mean , you 've been on his mind so much , he could n't see it was you standing right in front of him . are you gon na tell me how it went ? chris : ask isabella . she was there , too . nikki : obviously , something is very wrong here . victor , will you please tell me what nicholas means ? why is it your fault thatassie e was on the ice ? victor : she overheard an argument between your son and me . nikki : an argument about what ? what ? tell me ! victor : it was about sharon . nikki : is sharon in there with cassie ? nick : no . nikki : well , where is she ? victoria : sharon 's gone . she left . she left nicholas a note . nikki : what ? what do you mean she 's gone ? where is she ? victoria : who knows ? she did n't say . nikki : are you saying that she just walked away from her family ? she abandoned her family ? nick : that 's exactly what we 're saying . nikki : why on earth would she do such a thing ? colleen : i know you really like your mom 's boyfriend . lily : it 's like my dad wants us all to forget about wesley , like he and my mom never got divorced . colleen : is wes , like , competing with your dad ? lily : not enough . everyone 's being all nice . colleen : tough position for you to be in . i mean , you want wes to be happy , but that means your dad has to lose out . lily : hey , he and my mom got divorced . if they did n't mean it , they should n't have done it . colleen : what do you mean ? are they gon na get back together ? lily : who knows ? they 're not apart . that 's for sure . colleen : yeah , but you said they were sleeping in different bedrooms . lily : for now , but my dad 's got ideas . colleen : how do you know that ? lily : he 's falling all over himself trying to impress my mom . you should see him . /cleleen : okay , maybe you 're right . let 's concentrate on your history exam . forget all about the adults . lily : god , it 's like i want to say to them , `` this is your idea of a stable environment for your crazy teenager ? think again . `` colleen : i know . i mean , they think that they know what 's best for you . ly : y : sometimes i think my mom 's just doing all this to get back at me for all the trouble i 've caused in paris . colleen : no , she would n't do that , lily , not on purpose . lily : yeah , you 're probably right . still ... man , i used to think adults were so in control , like they knew what they were doing . now i wonder if they 're just as confused as we are . dru : i had no idea you could eat this frozen . mmm ! neil : yeah , instant gourmet . dessert , just zap it in the microwave . dru : man , you know , remember all those years i spent learning how to cook and you knew how to do it ? you were holding out on melike that . neil : what are you talking about ? come on . dru : ooh , this is good . neil : you dropped some down there . no , no , no , let me get that . mmm ! dru : what ? neil : what ? dru : man , i see you staring at me . i feel that . you wondering how i 'm doing or something ? neil : how are you doing ? dru : feel like a new woman . you 'd better know that . neil : yeah , last couple of hours i showed you right . took your mind off things , did n't i ? dru : honey , the whole thing was unexpected . thank you . neil : you came home ptttty low this afternoon . dru : wanted to hang myself from the chandelier . neil : baby , we do n't have a chandelier . dru : yeah , i know . i know . i know . good thing . neil : but i 'm glad i could cheer you up . dru : and i said it could n't be done . neil : oh , ye of little faith . dru : well , i 'm just happy that you went to such drastic measures , mr . winters . neil : mmm . baby . dru : mm - hmm . neil : yeah . but you know , dru , i hope you realize that this is n't exactly , you know -- dru : what , a tactic to get me into the sack ? mnh - mnh . neil : it wasn't . i 'm trying to be serious . dru : please don't . please don't . neil : what ? dru : oh , come on ! you said i was beautiful , that i felt beautiful . i want to stay beautiful . let 's just chill , okay , honey ? let'jujust chill . neil : yeah , excuse me , but we 're gon na have to , at some point , talk about things , you know ? dru : okay , as long as it does n't interfere with my illustrious modeling career . neil : well , it may interfere with something else , or rather , should i say someone else . dru : okay , wesley , right ? olivia : i do n't think i can have a discussion right now . wes : fair enough . olivia : i mean , come on , who are we kidding ? we have to talk about what just happened . wes : well , doctor , in clinical terms , i think this was called a boo -- olivia : okay , stop it . stop it . wes : interesting , is n't it , the way we use humor , almost instinctively . olivia : you mean when there 's an awkward situation ? wes : there 's a lot going on here , liv . olivia : yeah , you think ? wes : i mean , a certain vulnerability , maybe on both our parts . olivia : i 'm facing the reality of brad . wes : and me coming to terms with some hard truths when it comes to drucilla . olivia : which does n't give us the right to jump in the sack together . wes : but we did . one of many potential responses , but you know when you consider the various dynamics involved , it may be the most logical one . olivia : you know what ? do you want me to get my bust of sigmund freud out of the closet ? wes : you keep it in the closet ? my god , woman , what is your problem ? olivia : yeah , well , i did n't know he had a problem with the dark . weswewell , see , now you 're doing it . olivia : what else can we do ? are we gon na cry , gnash our teeth , pull out our hair ? wes : you know , if we were in paris , we 'd probably be smoking a cigarette and maybe , just maybe , enjoying each other . olivia : yeah , well , i wish we were in paris . jack : pregnant ? as in ... ashley : pregnant . you know , another niece or nephew r r you to spoil . jack : that is wonderful . congratulations . ashley : thank you . jack : i assume the boy wonder is happy about this . ashley : oh , yeah , he 's ecstatic . jack : wow . you 're gon na be a mommy again . ashley : thanks for being so happy for us . jack : i am . i am . ashley : why do i hear a `` but `` here ? jack : no , not a `` but . `` i just was thinking -- ashley : oh , do n't do it . jack : i was thinking it 's a good thing that victor does n't know about abby . ashley : you just had to go there , did n't you ? jack : ash -- ashley : you know , ca n't i just have five minutes of happiness before you start borrowing disaster , just five minutes ? jack : we could do that , yeah . we could also ignore global warming and the mideast crisis , but they are n't going to go away , either . ashley : but we ca n't ignore that nikki needs to keep her mouth shut . i know . jack : honey , she is the man 's wife . i mean , this is a pretty tall order . ashley : okay , what -- you keep it up , and i 'm just -- i 'm never gon na allow you to baby - sit . jack : you 're cruel . you know that ? you 're also blessed . ashley : yeah . jack : congratulations . ashley : thanks . nikki : sharon abandoned her family , and you have no idea where she is ? victoria : no , we don't . nikki : does she even know about cassie ? victor : no . her mother 's waiting by the pho , , hoping that sharon will call and so is miguel . nikki : i do n't believe this . you said that cassie overheard an argument about her mother . victor : we 're not sure what she overheard . nikki : but it was about her , right ? it was about her mother . nick : yeah , that 's about it . nikki : well , what about her ? what ? victoria : why are we talking about this ? none of this is going to help cassie . we just need to hope and pray that she pulls through . nick : why are you protecting him ? why are you doing that ? i think mom has a right to know the truth . chris : so isabella was there , but she did n't realize it was me . lynne : where ? chris : in their apartment . lynne : i ca n't imagine she was happy to see kelly simmons . chris : no , standing in the middle of her home , chatting with her husband , no , she was n't happy . lynne : but paul did n't blow your cover . chris : no , he just wanted me out of there . lynne : poor guy . he 's got the woman he 's married to and the woman he truly loves in the same room . chris : oh , lynne , stop . lynne : okay , well , at least the masquerade is over . chrisyeah , well , i was starting to like kelly . she 's a much nicer person than i am . lynne : oh , would you stop ? i 'm glad she 's gone . chris : if you 've ever had kelly and paul in the same room . lynne : i was dreading it . i say we take the wig and we burn it . chris : what 's michael gon na think happened to her ? lynne : who cares what michael thinks ? she 's gone . he does n't ever need to know you were kelly . he knows way too much already . chris : what does that mean ? lynne : michael knows something that you probably wish he didn't . chris : wait . do n't tell me . lynne : isabella told him that you and paul -- chris : oh ! are you sure ? lynne : well , he did n't say it was her , but who else could it be ? paul did n't tell him . chris : poor michael . god , he did n't ask for this . lynne : what is this `` poor michael `` ? the guy deserves everything he 's getting and more . nikki : all right , i 've had enough of this nonsense . somebody is going to tell me the truth right now . victoria ! victoria : i do n't want to be involved in this . i ca n't take it . nicholas , you do whatever you want . i 'll be with your daughter . nikki : okay , well , this seems to center around you , so if there 's something that i need to know , i do n't care how painful it is , you need to tell me . it 's better than being in the dark and knowing that secrets are being kept from you . so tell me ! nick : i do n't know if i should be the one -- nikki : stop ! stop this ! stop this ! what is wrong with everybody ? well , you think that i ca n't take it ? i am a very strong person . therisis nothing you can say that will destroy me , but i need to know what i 'm dealing with right now . tell me . nick : all right , i 'll tell you , mom -- victor : no , i will . victor : it goes back to the day before you left for your trip . i had still suffered the effects of a head injury , and aron had given me a painkiller . you were very upset with me , with her . we argued . we went upstairs . i decided to have a double shot of tequila . nikki : what , on top of the painkiller ? victor : yeah , it was a very stupid thing to do . nikki : yes , it was . but i do n't understand how that could possibly cause all this drama . victor : i went down to see sharon , hoping against all hope that i could salvage the marriage between sharon and our son . nikki : yeah ? victor : the tragic irony that that very day , nicholas was ready to reconcile . he bought her some flowers and a gift . when he cameowowtoto the house , he looked through the window and he saw sharon in my arms . i was kissing sharon . olivia : enjoying each other . well , that 's a concept . wes : i think this is the part where i use my finely honed skills at reading people to figure out just what you 're thinking . olivia : i 'll save you the trouble . it was pretty darn good . wes : yeah ? olivia : mm - hmm . wes : i 'm glad you did n't say `` nice . `` olivia : it was that , too . wes : yeah , but not just nice . olivia : if i said `` the earth moved , `` would you believe me ? wes : little tremor , at least ? olivia : well , wesley carter , i do believe you 're fishing for a compliment . wes : it 's a guy thing . olivia : is that the title of the paper that you 're delivering at the geneva conference ? wes : well , in case you were wondering , it was good for me , too . olivia : oh , eaeally ? so , you know , just `` good `` ? wes : very , very good . olivia : okay , that 's better . wes : damn ... listen to us . olivia : what ? wes : we 're still analyzing . olivia : and me without a cigarette in the house . wes : i do n't know what this means for us , liv . olivia : i do n't , either . but if you do n't mind , i 'm gon na take your advice and just enjoy the moment . neil : drucilla , he is an interested party , or at least i thought he was . dru : okay , neil , can we not go there right now , please ? neil : all right , all right , all right , maybe you 're right . dru : you know , wes and i -- neil : what about some more cheesecake ? dru : no , i 'm stuffed . you know , i do n't want to talk about anyone or anybody . i just want to try to stay in the now . neil : all right , but before we do that , i got a little story to relate to you . you know , when i was in rehab in my therapy sessions , we talked about living life in the gray . now some people ca n't do that . it 's all black and white for them . they need to know where things stand every minute of every day just to feel comfortable in their own skin . they self - medicate . dru : kind of like you and the booze , huh ? neil : baby , i had a lot of gray iny life when i started drinking . a lot of pain and confusion . one of the things that i work on on a daily basis is learning to let go . you know what i 'm saying ? let things unfold how they 're supposed to . so when you say to me , you know , `` let 's chill . let 's savor the moment , `` my knee - jerk reaction -- dru : is to talk me to death . what is this , shakespeare , man ? come on . neil : oh , i see , you know me so well . dru : yeah , i think control is very important , but there 's a lot to be said for spontaneity . neil : oh , you got that right . dru : well , let 's be spontaneous . chris : you and i are never going to agree about michael . lynne : you 're right . not now , but maybe one day wh y you and paul are back together , and things are normal again , you 'll be like , `` oh , my god , what was i thinking ? michael baldwin . `` chris : he loves me , lynne , okay ? lynne : oh , he wants you . he 's got the hots for you . he desperately wants to be the kind of guy who would have someone like you on his arm . that is not love in my book . paul loves you . chris : god , you should work for a collection agency , because you never give up . lynne : all right . i 'll stop now , while i 'm ahead . because paul knows you 're back in town , and there are no more disguises . then you and paul -- you 're closer again in a very special way . i 'm gon na have faith in love and let nature take its course . chris : well , thank you . i appreciate that . lynne : i also have some dinner heating in the oven . would you care to join me ? chris : thanks . chris : `` closer again , in that special way `` ? paul was n't special . or was it something else ? isabella : luckily , he 's still sleeping like a little log . paul : well , last night was a different story . isabella : teething ? paul : with a vengeance . i barely slept at all . i tell you , it was one bout to the next . but i talked to the babysitter and she said that he was in a good mood for a big chunk of the day . and he ate a lot , and then he went down again . so ... isabella : if only our lives were so simple . paul : yeah . so you thinking about sticking around ? isabella : is that all right with you ? paul : well , as you said , it 's your home , too . isabella : sometimes i wonder . paul : what do you mean ? ibebella : paul , the ghost of christine is everywhere . sometimes it 's like i can feel her in this place , like her presence . paul : you mean here ? isabella : anywhere you are -- in your office , in your head , in your heart . it kills me . paul : i do n't know what i co o about that . isabella : are you telling me that you ca n't let go of your ex - wife ? paul : oh , isabella -- isabella : i mean , if that 's the case , why did you marry me ? okay , you know what ? i said i did n't come here to fight and i meant that . i just want to see our son . so i 'm gon na sleep on the couch tonight . paul : no . no , i 'll sleep on the couch . isabella : okay . good night . paul : good night . [ people chattering ] neil : spontaneity , huh ? dru : yeah , food for the soul . neil : baby , you want some more dessert ? dru : you just put it away , tiger . neil : no , i ai n't talking about the cheesecake . what i said ... dru : oh , you 're talking about if i had enough dessert . neil : and have you ? dru : well , let 's see now . i can always make room for more .

chris : i 'd best be going . isabella : oh , sure , slip out the door . paul , are you gon na let her do this ? paul : do what , isabella ? isabella : come around here , sticking her nose into our business . paul : you know , i honestly have no idea what you 're talking about . i think miss simmons should leave . isabella : no , i want an explanation ! paul : i think it would be in all of our best interests if she would take off right now . isabella : no , no , paul . paul : i said yes . chris : thank you , mr . williams . isabella : paul , i do n't understand . you 're a detective . do n't you want to know why this woman is masquerading around here ? paul : what do you mean `` masquerading `` ? isabella : oh , god . paul , she 's so obviously a phony . ca n't you see th ? nikki : i was aware that something was brewing between you and nicholas before i even left town . what is it ? victoa : mother , this is n't the time . nikki : obviously , you know something . you know something that you do n't want me to know . victoria : look , just i do n't think this should be our priority right now . nikki : i want to know why this happened ! nick : i already told you that . nikki : yeah , you said it has to do with your father . i do n't know what that means . nick : you know , maybe vic 's right . we should just let it alone for now . nikki : you are all hiding something from me . what are you hiding ? damn it ! will you tell me ? victor : there 's no sense ... nikki : what ? victor : in getting into it now . it 'll only make things worse . nikki : this is absolute insanity . i come back to town to hear that cassie may be dying , and not one member of my family can be honest with me and tell me what is happening ? what the hell is wrong with us ? jack : what 's with all the attitude toward drucilla ? ashley : well , she 's not the only black model around . besides , she 's hardly a fresh face . jack : hey , if that 's a slam on her age , she does kind of fit the demographic . ashley : do n't you think she 's a little long in the tooth ? jack : well , obviously , you do . ashley : if this acquisition goes through , we 're gon na be launching a very important new cosmetics line , and we have to make sure we have exactly the right persona to represent us . jack : i agree with everything you just said . ashley : you did n't promise her anything . jack : i can not believe all this negativity . ashley : well , why ? her experience lies mostly in europe in high fashion . very little cosmetics work . jack : with the audience we 're going after , that 's a dual advantage . she 's high - profile in that community , and she has n't been associated with any of our direct competitors . ashley : okay , okay , lelet 's just think about other options before you put a pen in her hand , please . that 's why i 'm here . jack : what are these , concept tests ? ashley : yeah , would you tweak the descriptions before i start recruiting ? oh , i 'm sorry . am i boring you ? jack : not any more than usual . ashley : very funny . oh , i get it . sleepless nights , huh ? not easy having a toddler in the house ? jack : you , on the other hand . ashley : what ? jack : i do n't know . you seem kind of -- aleley : happy ? jack : is that the word i 'm looking for ? ashley : well , things are going pretty well for brad and me . jack : really ? when did this happen ? ashley : just lately . our issues are not behind us , but we 've recommitted to our marriage . jack : well , no wonder you 're glowing . honestly , you look like a million bucks . ashley : well , if i 'm glowing , it 's because of another reason . i 'm pregnant . jack : what ? paul : you know , isabella , i do n't understand why this miss simmons has you so upset . what 's the history between you two ? isabella : she was here the other day , came knocking at the door , making me believe she was a parole officer , asking bogus questions about my ex - husband . paul : and you 're sure it 's the same person , and not confusing -- isabella : i 'm not blind . yes , i 'm sure . she did n't ask you anything about me , about us ? paul : no , no , nothing . we were chatting at the coffeehouse . isabella : there 's something strange about that woman , paul , something i do n't buy , and i ca n't put my finger on it . paul : so why would she make you wan na believe that she was a parole officer ? isabella : i do n't know . that 's why i have michael looking into it for me . paul : baldwin ? isabella : yes , and he checked her out , and she 's a phony . paul : so why the hell did you go to baldwin ? isabella : because i ca n't come to you , at the level we 've been communicating at these days -- paul : oh , still baldwin ? you could have come to me . isabella : what would have been the point ? no , you are not there for me . so you do n't get to diatate who i can talk to . paul : you know what ? you 're the one that walked out on ricky and me . isabella : because you admitted to having sex with christine ! paul : fine ! isabella : and you still have to see her again . you call that being there for me , being a husband ? paul : so you told baldwin about what happened between chris and me ? isabella : no , do n't act like you 're the victim , paul . it did n't `` happen . `` you did it ! paul : oh , yeah , right . you know , there 's something getting even there . that 's why you went to baldwin . isabella : no , i just needed someone to talk to . paul : someone to talk to ? about a parole officer inquiring about your ex- husband , not about my personal life . isabella : you k ow what ? i do n't need to explain to you why i went to michael and told him what i told him ! i needed advice ! i needed help ! i needed someone to talk to ! that 's all i 'm gon na say about it . paul : so ... isabella : so i did n't come here to fight with you . paul : no , sure , you came here to see ricky . he 's in the bedroom . isabella : yeah , but i do n't want to just visit my son . this is my he . e . lynne : i thought i heard -- chris , are you all right ? chris : yeah , it 's been kind of a rough night . lynne : you too ? chris : paul knows . lynne : that kelly simmons is you ? chris : there is no more kelly simmons . lynne : are n't you kind of relieved ? chris : i suppose . lynne : i admire you for having the guts to tell paul . chris : i didn't . it was like i had a tiger by the tail . i did n't know how to let go and say , `` surprise , guess what ? it 's me . `` lynne : so then what happened ? he saw thrghhehe disguise ? chris : yeah , it 's a miracle that he did n't before now . lynne : yeah , he 's had so much on his mind . it 's kind of ironic , in fact . i mean , you 've been on his mind so much , he could n't see it was you standing right in front of him . are you gon na tell me how it went ? chris : ask isabella . she was there , too . nikki : obviously , something is very wrong here . victor , will you please tell me what nicholas means ? why is it your fault thatassie e was on the ice ? victor : she overheard an argument between your son and me . nikki : an argument about what ? what ? tell me ! victor : it was about sharon . nikki : is sharon in there with cassie ? nick : no . nikki : well , where is she ? victoria : sharon 's gone . she left . she left nicholas a note . nikki : what ? what do you mean she 's gone ? where is she ? victoria : who knows ? she did n't say . nikki : are you saying that she just walked away from her family ? she abandoned her family ? nick : that 's exactly what we 're saying . nikki : why on earth would she do such a thing ? colleen : i know you really like your mom 's boyfriend . lily : it 's like my dad wants us all to forget about wesley , like he and my mom never got divorced . colleen : is wes , like , competing with your dad ? lily : not enough . everyone 's being all nice . colleen : tough position for you to be in . i mean , you want wes to be happy , but that means your dad has to lose out . lily : hey , he and my mom got divorced . if they did n't mean it , they should n't have done it . colleen : what do you mean ? are they gon na get back together ? lily : who knows ? they 're not apart . that 's for sure . colleen : yeah , but you said they were sleeping in different bedrooms . lily : for now , but my dad 's got ideas . colleen : how do you know that ? lily : he 's falling all over himself trying to impress my mom . you should see him . /cleleen : okay , maybe you 're right . let 's concentrate on your history exam . forget all about the adults . lily : god , it 's like i want to say to them , `` this is your idea of a stable environment for your crazy teenager ? think again . `` colleen : i know . i mean , they think that they know what 's best for you . ly : y : sometimes i think my mom 's just doing all this to get back at me for all the trouble i 've caused in paris . colleen : no , she would n't do that , lily , not on purpose . lily : yeah , you 're probably right . still ... man , i used to think adults were so in control , like they knew what they were doing . now i wonder if they 're just as confused as we are . dru : i had no idea you could eat this frozen . mmm ! neil : yeah , instant gourmet . dessert , just zap it in the microwave . dru : man , you know , remember all those years i spent learning how to cook and you knew how to do it ? you were holding out on melike that . neil : what are you talking about ? come on . dru : ooh , this is good . neil : you dropped some down there . no , no , no , let me get that . mmm ! dru : what ? neil : what ? dru : man , i see you staring at me . i feel that . you wondering how i 'm doing or something ? neil : how are you doing ? dru : feel like a new woman . you 'd better know that . neil : yeah , last couple of hours i showed you right . took your mind off things , did n't i ? dru : honey , the whole thing was unexpected . thank you . neil : you came home ptttty low this afternoon . dru : wanted to hang myself from the chandelier . neil : baby , we do n't have a chandelier . dru : yeah , i know . i know . i know . good thing . neil : but i 'm glad i could cheer you up . dru : and i said it could n't be done . neil : oh , ye of little faith . dru : well , i 'm just happy that you went to such drastic measures , mr . winters . neil : mmm . baby . dru : mm - hmm . neil : yeah . but you know , dru , i hope you realize that this is n't exactly , you know -- dru : what , a tactic to get me into the sack ?

let'jujust chill . neil : yeah , excuse me , but we 're gon na have to , at some point , talk about things , you know ? dru : okay , as long as it does n't interfere with my illustrious modeling career . neil : well , it may interfere with something else , or rather , should i say someone else . dru : okay , wesley , right ? olivia : i do n't think i can have a discussion right now . wes : fair enough . olivia : i mean , come on , who are we kidding ? we have to talk about what just happened . wes : well , doctor , in clinical terms , i think this was called a boo -- olivia : okay , stop it . stop it . wes : interesting , is n't it , the way we use humor , almost instinctively . olivia : you mean when there 's an awkward situation ? wes : there 's a lot going on here , liv . olivia : yeah , you think ? wes : i mean , a certain vulnerability , maybe on both our parts . olivia : i 'm facing the reality of brad . wes : and me coming to terms with some hard truths when it comes to drucilla . olivia : which does n't give us the right to jump in the sack together . wes : but we did . one of many potential responses , but you know when you consider the various dynamics involved , it may be the most logical one . olivia : you know what ? do you want me to get my bust of sigmund freud out of the closet ? wes : you keep it in the closet ? my god , woman , what is your problem ? olivia : yeah , well , i did n't know he had a problem with the dark . weswewell , see , now you 're doing it . olivia : what else can we do ? are we gon na cry , gnash our teeth , pull out our hair ? wes : you know , if we were in paris , we 'd probably be smoking a cigarette and maybe , just maybe , enjoying each other . olivia : yeah , well , i wish we were in paris . jack : pregnant ? as in ... ashley : pregnant . you know , another niece or nephew r r you to spoil . jack : that is wonderful . congratulations . ashley : thank you . jack : i assume the boy wonder is happy about this . ashley : oh , yeah , he 's ecstatic . jack : wow . you 're gon na be a mommy again . ashley : thanks for being so happy for us . jack : i am . i am . ashley : why do i hear a `` but `` here ? jack : no , not a `` but . `` i just was thinking -- ashley : oh , do n't do it . jack : i was thinking it 's a good thing that victor does n't know about abby . ashley : you just had to go there , did n't you ? jack : ash -- ashley : you know , ca n't i just have five minutes of happiness before you start borrowing disaster , just five minutes ? jack : we could do that , yeah . we could also ignore global warming and the mideast crisis , but they are n't going to go away , either . ashley : but we ca n't ignore that nikki needs to keep her mouth shut . i know . jack : honey , she is the man 's wife . i mean , this is a pretty tall order . ashley : okay , what -- you keep it up , and i 'm just -- i 'm never gon na allow you to baby - sit . jack : you 're cruel . you know that ? you 're also blessed . ashley : yeah . jack : congratulations . ashley : thanks . nikki : sharon abandoned her family , and you have no idea where she is ? victoria : no , we don't . nikki : does she even know about cassie ? victor : no . her mother 's waiting by the pho , , hoping that sharon will call and so is miguel . nikki : i do n't believe this . you said that cassie overheard an argument about her mother . victor : we 're not sure what she overheard . nikki : but it was about her , right ? it was about her mother . nick : yeah , that 's about it . nikki : well , what about her ? what ? victoria : why are we talking about this ? none of this is going to help cassie . we just need to hope and pray that she pulls through . nick : why are you protecting him ? why are you doing that ? i think mom has a right to know the truth . chris : so isabella was there , but she did n't realize it was me . lynne : where ? chris : in their apartment . lynne : i ca n't imagine she was happy to see kelly simmons . chris : no , standing in the middle of her home , chatting with her husband , no , she was n't happy . lynne : but paul did n't blow your cover . chris : no , he just wanted me out of there . lynne : poor guy . he 's got the woman he 's married to and the woman he truly loves in the same room . chris : oh , lynne , stop . lynne : okay , well , at least the masquerade is over . chrisyeah , well , i was starting to like kelly . she 's a much nicer person than i am . lynne : oh , would you stop ? i 'm glad she 's gone . chris : if you 've ever had kelly and paul in the same room . lynne : i was dreading it . i say we take the wig and we burn it . chris : what 's michael gon na think happened to her ? lynne : who cares what michael thinks ? she 's gone . he does n't ever need to know you were kelly . he knows way too much already . chris : what does that mean ? lynne : michael knows something that you probably wish he didn't . chris : wait . do n't tell me . lynne : isabella told him that you and paul -- chris : oh ! are you sure ? lynne : well , he did n't say it was her , but who else could it be ? paul did n't tell him . chris : poor michael . god , he did n't ask for this . lynne : what is this `` poor michael `` ? the guy deserves everything he 's getting and more . nikki : all right , i 've had enough of this nonsense . somebody is going to tell me the truth right now . victoria ! victoria : i do n't want to be involved in this . i ca n't take it . nicholas , you do whatever you want . i 'll be with your daughter . nikki : okay , well , this seems to center around you , so if there 's something that i need to know , i do n't care how painful it is , you need to tell me . it 's better than being in the dark and knowing that secrets are being kept from you . so tell me ! nick : i do n't know if i should be the one -- nikki : stop ! stop this ! stop this ! what is wrong with everybody ? well , you think that i ca n't take it ? i am a very strong person . therisis nothing you can say that will destroy me , but i need to know what i 'm dealing with right now . tell me . nick : all right , i 'll tell you , mom -- victor : no , i will . victor : it goes back to the day before you left for your trip . i had still suffered the effects of a head injury , and aron had given me a painkiller . you were very upset with me , with her . we argued . we went upstairs . i decided to have a double shot of tequila . nikki : what , on top of the painkiller ? victor : yeah , it was a very stupid thing to do . nikki : yes , it was . but i do n't understand how that could possibly cause all this drama . victor : i went down to see sharon , hoping against all hope that i could salvage the marriage between sharon and our son . nikki : yeah ? victor : the tragic irony that that very day , nicholas was ready to reconcile . he bought her some flowers and a gift . when he cameowowtoto the house , he looked through the window and he saw sharon in my arms . i was kissing sharon . olivia : enjoying each other . well , that 's a concept . wes : i think this is the part where i use my finely honed skills at reading people to figure out just what you 're thinking . olivia : i 'll save you the trouble . it was pretty darn good . wes : yeah ? olivia : mm - hmm . wes : i 'm glad you did n't say `` nice . `` olivia : it was that , too . wes : yeah , but not just nice . olivia : if i said `` the earth moved , `` would you believe me ? wes : little tremor , at least ? olivia : well , wesley carter , i do believe you 're fishing for a compliment . wes : it 's a guy thing . olivia : is that the title of the paper that you 're delivering at the geneva conference ? wes : well , in case you were wondering , it was good for me , too . olivia : oh , eaeally ? so , you know , just `` good `` ? wes : very , very good . olivia : okay , that 's better . wes : damn ... listen to us . olivia : what ? wes : we 're still analyzing . olivia : and me without a cigarette in the house . wes : i do n't know what this means for us , liv . olivia : i do n't , either . but if you do n't mind , i 'm gon na take your advice and just enjoy the moment . neil : drucilla , he is an interested party , or at least i thought he was . dru : okay , neil , can we not go there right now , please ? neil : all right , all right , all right , maybe you 're right . dru : you know , wes and i -- neil : what about some more cheesecake ? dru : no , i 'm stuffed . you know , i do n't want to talk about anyone or anybody . i just want to try to stay in the now . neil : all right , but before we do that , i got a little story to relate to you . you know , when i was in rehab in my therapy sessions , we talked about living life in the gray . now some people ca n't do that . it 's all black and white for them . they need to know where things stand every minute of every day just to feel comfortable in their own skin . they self - medicate . dru : kind of like you and the booze , huh ? neil : baby , i had a lot of gray iny life when i started drinking . a lot of pain and confusion . one of the things that i work on on a daily basis is learning to let go . you know what i 'm saying ? let things unfold how they 're supposed to . so when you say to me , you know , `` let 's chill . let 's savor the moment , `` my knee - jerk reaction -- dru : is to talk me to death . what is this , shakespeare , man ? come on . neil : oh , i see , you know me so well . dru : yeah , i think control is very important , but there 's a lot to be said for spontaneity . neil : oh , you got that right . dru : well , let 's be spontaneous . chris : you and i are never going to agree about michael . lynne : you 're right . not now , but maybe one day wh y you and paul are back together , and things are normal again , you 'll be like , `` oh , my god , what was i thinking ? michael baldwin . `` chris : he loves me , lynne , okay ? lynne : oh , he wants you . he 's got the hots for you . he desperately wants to be the kind of guy who would have someone like you on his arm . that is not love in my book . paul loves you . chris : god , you should work for a collection agency , because you never give up . lynne : all right . i 'll stop now , while i 'm ahead . because paul knows you 're back in town , and there are no more disguises . then you and paul -- you 're closer again in a very special way . i 'm gon na have faith in love and let nature take its course . chris : well , thank you . i appreciate that . lynne : i also have some dinner heating in the oven . would you care to join me ? chris : thanks . chris : `` closer again , in that special way `` ? paul was n't special . or was it something else ? isabella : luckily , he 's still sleeping like a little log . paul : well , last night was a different story . isabella : teething ? paul : with a vengeance . i barely slept at all . i tell you , it was one bout to the next . but i talked to the babysitter and she said that he was in a good mood for a big chunk of the day . and he ate a lot , and then he went down again . so ... isabella : if only our lives were so simple . paul : yeah . so you thinking about sticking around ? isabella : is that all right with you ? paul : well , as you said , it 's your home , too . isabella : sometimes i wonder . paul : what do you mean ? ibebella : paul , the ghost of christine is everywhere . sometimes it 's like i can feel her in this place , like her presence . paul : you mean here ? isabella : anywhere you are -- in your office , in your head , in your heart . it kills me . paul : i do n't know what i co o about that . isabella : are you telling me that you ca n't let go of your ex - wife ? paul : oh , isabella -- isabella : i mean , if that 's the case , why did you marry me ? okay , you know what ? i said i did n't come here to fight and i meant that . i just want to see our son . so i 'm gon na sleep on the couch tonight . paul : no . no , i 'll sleep on the couch . isabella : okay . good night . paul : good night . [ people chattering ] neil : spontaneity , huh ? dru : yeah , food for the soul . neil : baby , you want some more dessert ? dru : you just put it away , tiger . neil : no , i ai n't talking about the cheesecake . what i said ... dru : oh , you 're talking about if i had enough dessert . neil : and have you ? dru : well , let 's see now . i can always make room for more . ( telephone rings ) dru : i 'll get that . neil : i 'll get it . no , i 'll get it . dru : stop . neil : come here , you . ( ring ) dru : hello ? winters residence . jack : drucilla ? dru : jack . stop it . jack ! jack : i 'm sorry . it did n't sound like you . dru : i was working out . you know , a girl has to keep her figure . what can i do for you ? jack : my sister and i were talking earlier , and i think it might be a good idea for you to drop by and see me at some point this week . i have an interesting proposal to run by you . dru : oh , really ? jack : so call my secretary and we 'll set up an appointment . drucilla ? dru : yeah . yeah , jack , i 'll do that . thank you . jack abbott ! neil : jack abbott ? dru : yeah . he wants to talk to me . neil : talk to you about what , modeling for jabot ? dru : i think so . neil : come on , get out of here ! there it is . dru : you know what ? neil : what , baby ? dru : i thought i was done . but you know what you are , neil winters ? neil : what ? dru : you are my fine , sexy ... neil : lay it on me . dru : luckchcharm . neil : that 's me . dru : get busy . nikki : you were kissing sharon ? victor : yes . nikki : you mean , like ... nick : yeah , like sexually . that 's exactly what it means . nikki : is that true ? victor : yes nikki : you were -- you were coming on to sharon . is that -- is that what you 're saying happened ? victor : obviously , with the liquor and the pain pills , i was n't myself . nick : like hell you weren't . nikki : okay , wait a minute . you ... nikki : were making a move on sharon , knowing about all the problems in that marriage and sheded total disrespect to me . you took her in your arms and you kissed her , and nicholas saw this ? and that 's why he 's been angry enough to want to kill you , is that what you 're saying ? am i getting this absolutely right ? is that what you 're saying ? victor : yes . nikki : you bastard !Summarize.[/INST]due to technical difficulties with the satellite y & r was not broadcast in this reviewers area .</s> | 16,493 |

[ chuckles ] other than my brother putting a bullet between my eyes , not a thing . although you are here out of the blue ... for apparently no reason . sonny : oh , i have a reason . ava : do tell . sonny : it 's very compelling . i thought you and i should ... spend a little time together alone . lulu : you need to back up for a minute . ned said that my dad threatened to kill him ? tracy : yes . lulu : and make it look like a suicide . tracy : completely ridiculous . lulu : oh , thank god . okay . you do n't believe him ? tracy : no . no , your father 's capable of a lot of things . however , plotting ned 's murder -- i do n't think so . lulu : was ned in his right mind when he made this claim ? tracy : [ sighs ] he appeared to be . lulu : i honestly do n't know what to say . why would he lie about my dad like this ? tracy : [ sighs ] he 's obsessed about the future of elq , and ever since your dad and i got engaged , ned has been saying that your dad 's gon na rob the family blind . lulu : well , can you blame him ? tracy : well , no , not based on our past history , but things are different now . luke and i are different now . lulu : i know . did you tell ned how happy you are with my dad ? tracy : i did , but he wo n't drop his campaign to break us up . lulu : what are you gon na do ? tracy : i already did it . i - i asked ned to leave . lulu : okay . so , it 's taken care of . what 's the problem ? tracy : well , i would be inclined to believe what ned is saying if it was n't so over - the - top , but the truth is , luke is different . lulu : different how ? tracy : well , he disappears on a moment 's notice with no explanation , and then he comes back with no plausible explanation . he 's keeping secrets . lulu : i thought you said something was different . tracy : this is a whole new level , lulu . for instance ... i have absolutely no idea where he is now . ric : i am not the force behind julian jerome . luke : mm , that 's your story , and you 're sticking to it , huh ? ric : it 's not a story , luke . luke : you know , mr. lansing , if i took at face value every claim of innocence i heard , i would be dead many times over . ric : [ chuckles ] so , even with no proof , you -- you still refuse to believe me ? luke : you know what they say about absence of proof , right ? ric : do n't cross me again , luke . otherwise , you 're gon na find out the hard way -- i can be just as dangerous as my brother . alexis : what do you mean you got here just in the nick of time to see lucas ? julian : hmm ? oh , um , well , i arrived in the one fleeting moment that bobbie was n't holding vigil . alexis : ah . julian : and if i had -- forget it . i barely got by that police officer that was standing guard outside his room . alexis : all right , look , i spent some time with bobbie just now . we had a nice talk . it 's possible i could smooth things over for you with lucas in the future . julian : really ? you think that would work ? alexis : no , not at all . julian : ah . ah , well , bobbie thinks that lucas is in that bed because of me . well , she 's probably right . [ sighs ] lucas was shot to send me a message . alexis : he 's gon na be okay . julian : none of this is gon na be okay . alexis : lucas is gon na be fine . julian : yeah , well , they do n't know what i know . my son is still in danger .

[ sighs ] there 's just -- everybody 's fair game now , unless ... alexis : unless what ? julian : [ sighs ] look , there 's only one way out of this for all of us . i have to go back to work for the organization . luke : yoo - hoo . family - in - law . olivia : oh , hi . luke , how you doing ? luke : oh , a little bet better than you , it seems . olivia : yeah . [ sighs ] yeah , i 'm sorry . my head 's just all over the place . one of those days , i guess . luke : you know what might make you feel better -- a good , old - fashioned eviction . olivia : mm . luke : there 's an undesirable out there on the terrace . olivia : who is it ? luke : ric lansing . he 's out there oozing all over an impressionable young woman . why do n't you get some muscle out there and bounce the dude out of the place ? you know you want to . ric : to our first date of a new era . elizabeth : not counting the nurses ' ball . ric : yes , where we were accompanied by two very charming but very romantically inconvenient children . elizabeth : oh , and we went to nikolas and britt 's non - engagement party together . ric : mm - hmm . did you have a good time that night ? elizabeth : not in the slightest . ric : ouch . elizabeth : it had nothing to do with you . ric : oh , okay . elizabeth : you 're a great escort . the night , however -- not so much . ric : well , then i wo n't have to work too hard to surpass it , huh ? elizabeth : [ chuckles ] you already accomplished that when you pulled out my chair . ric : oh , then i guess i wo n't need the music . elizabeth : what music ? [ violin plays ] ric : may i have this dance ? luke : what are you waiting for ? get some of this aggression out on somebody that deserves it . olivia : you know what ? ric 's okay . luke : oh , really ? since when ? olivia : since my relationship with sonny went the way of the dodo bird . it was only really fun hating ric -- luke : whoa , whoa . hold on . hold on . back up . olivia : [ sighs ] luke : you and sonny are through ? olivia : you know what ? i know i brought it up . i do n't actually want to talk about it , so ... luke : olivia . olivia : yeah ? luke : if you ca n't talk about it with me , who can you talk about it with ? i 'm family . you can trust me . come on . tell me what happened . olivia : sonny cheated on me ... with ava jerome . ava : what is it you believe i 've done ? sonny : come on , ava . how big of a fool do you think i am ? ava : i do n't -- i do n't think you 're a fool at all . sonny : well , if that 's true , you have a dangerously overinflated ego , 'cause , see , there 's only really two reasons why i would think you would deceive me right now . am i the fool ? or are you ? ava : sonny , i do n't know who has been poisoning you against me or why , but i would like the chance to defend myself . what , exactly , are you accusing me of ? sonny : for starters ... you shot olivia . jordan : my boss got cut loose . i 'm sure he 's gon na make it happen for me , too . shawn : you ca n't be serious . what do you -- this is the time you break ties from those people . make a deal . turn evidence against jerome . all right , think of yourself . jordan : i do n't need to . i 'm protected . shawn : i do n't believe this . jordan : look , i 'm not gon na let a good thing go to squander 'cause i ran into a little trouble . shawn : even after all this -- even after you know what you 're doing to your son , you 're gon na go back to them ? jordan : i do n't know what you want me to say . shawn : oh , the hell you do n't . jordan : i have a job to do , okay , shawn ? and i am going to do it . dante : why did n't they tell us about it -- share intel ? at least give us a heads - up . anna : well , apparently , the d.e.a . was a bit concerned with our reliability . i mean , mine , specifically , in regards to duke . dante : [ inhales deeply ] well , i 'm sure they were n't thrilled about the fact that i 'm sonny 's kid . anna : no , probably not . dante : okay , so , jordan is d.e.a . -- big deal . we still got jerome . i mean , now it 's up to the lawyers . our part is done . anna : no , far from it . jordan 's going back in . that 's the reason for the story . we 're protecting her cover . dante : so i get nailed on a rights violation that i did n't commit so -- so jordan ashford can retain her cover ? anna : well , you were undercover . uh , dominic pirelli , right ? you know how dangerous this can be . dante : yeah . anna : look , as soon as this case is resolved , you will be exonerated . your record will be cleared . you 're an excellent officer , dante . you do n't cut corners . dante : and i do n't violate people 's rights . anna : i know . i trust you implicitly . that 's why i 'm asking you to do this . dante : you 're implying i have a choice here ? anna : sadly , no . dante : [ sighs ] look , commissioner , i 'll do whatever you ask me to do . i just do n't see the benefit here . even with julian jerome out on bail , we got enough evidence to put him away till the end of time . anna : that 's the thing . julian is n't the d.e.a . 's prime target . dante : they do n't want the head of the jerome crime family ? anna : he 's not the head . there 's someone above him calling the shots . dante : who ? anna : we do n't know . so , with jordan going back in , we 're gon na find out , and then we 're gon na put that person away . come on . dante : [ sighs ] tracy : lulu , i know that your father marches to the beat of his own drummer . he can vanish anytime for any reason , but he 's open about it . he believes that what you see is what you get . this is different . i 'm worried about him . what if he 's in trouble ? lulu : he 's not . tracy : how can you be so sure ? last night , we had dinner plans , and he was a complete no - show . lulu : tracy , you 're worried about nothing . it 's not what you think . tracy : oh , if you know something , you better tell me . lulu : [ sighs ] do n't tell dad i told you . tracy : out with it ! lulu : dad is planning your honeymoon . tracy : honeymoon ? lulu : that 's why he 's been sneaking around so much . he was afraid that you would discover his plan . he wants it to be a surprise . i did n't want to tell him you might be a tough sell . tracy : really ? why would i be a tough sell ? lulu : i do n't know . you like to stay close to home in case something happens with elq . tracy : [ scoffs ] yeah , well , since i 'm no longer in charge at elq , that 's not a problem . lulu : then this is good news . tracy : are you absolutely sure ? the only reason your dad is sneaking around is because of this honeymoon thing ? lulu : 99.5 % . tracy : yeah , but not 100 % . lulu : because this is my dad we 're talking about . i even ran into him at the park . he was meeting with a travel agent . you have nothing to worry about . luke : you know what ? you do n't deserve this . you are a beautiful , vital , intelligent , beautiful woman . olivia : thank you , luke . thank you . luke : you 're welcome . [ sighs ] you know what ? sonny 's done you a favor . he may be a friend of mine , but i got to tell you ... you can do a lot better . ava : i shot olivia ? is that some kind of euphemism ? sonny : think carefully , ava . is denial the way you want to go ? [ liquid pouring ] ava : all right . i wo n't do you the disrespect of pretending it is n't true . sonny : a little late to start respecting me now . ava : i assume you got this information from shawn ? sonny : yeah , julian told him the day that shawn picked you up to bring you here . ava : what my brother failed to mention is that it was an accident . you were there . sonny : yeah . ava : you know . sonny : right . ava : olivia just [ sighs ] came running in . she got in the way . sonny : so , she was n't the target ? is that what you 're saying ? ava : god , no ! sonny : okay . ava : franco was the target . i was scared to death of him . i needed to dispose of him for kiki 's sake . you , more than anyone , must understand that protecting our children is our top priority , especially from psychopaths like that . i still shudder when i think of what he did to michael . my god , sonny . you must hate franco just as much , if not more , than i did . franco : i guess ava 's fate is out of our hands . carly : yes , that 's a good thing . franco : that 's a good thing ? is that what you just said ? it 's a good thing ? carly : i know that you do n't want kiki to mourn . i understand that . franco : carly , i 'm thinking about kiki , but i 'm also thinking about you . carly : me ? you 're thinking about me ? why ? franco : i know firsthand what it 's like to take a life . and you keep saying that sonny 's gon na kill ava . and if that happens , then you 're gon na feel responsible , and i - i do n't want -- i do n't want you to have to go through that . carly : you 're worried about me ? franco : yeah , i 'm worried about you , carly . carly : well , i do n't want you to think that i 'm taking this lightly . franco : i do n't know what to think . carly : i did the right thing . i 'm not gon na lose any sleep over this . ava deserves what she 's got coming . ava : tell me i 'm wrong -- that i was n't justified in going after franco . you ca n't , because just like me , you wanted him gone the minute he reared his ugly head . sonny : well , you got me there . but usually , when i call for an execution , somebody winds up executed . ava : i made a mistake . sonny : you think ? ava : i was horrified when i hurt olivia . and i did n't even know you then -- not like i do now . we 're friends . i would never do anything to hurt you intentionally . please tell me you believe that . sonny : not another word out of your lying , dirty mouth . alexis : we knew there was a risk if you decided to leave the organization , but that is no reason to turn back now . julian : i have no choice . alexis : yes , you do . you -- you made your choice when you decided to change your life for your family . julian : and look what happened , alexis . i - i have to reverse course . it 's the only way that i can protect everyone . alexis : who 's gon na protect you ? julian : [ sighs ] i can protect myself . alexis : yeah , that worked out really well when you ended up in jail with drug- trafficking charges . julian : yeah , well , it 's better i get hurt than the people i love . alexis : how about it 's better that nobody gets hurt , which is why i want you to come with me to the station . we 're gon na talk to anna . just give her what she wants . a - and -- and she 'll protect you , me , everybody . julian : the woman loathes me . she 's spent her entire life working to bring me down . alexis : this is different . julian : really ? as soon as anna gets what she wants , she 'll throw me and my family to the wolves . i 'm not gon na risk it . i wo n't . alexis : so , that 's that ? this is the end of the conversation ? julian : [ sighs ] alexis : what about us ? julian : i mean , is that the end of us if i - i do n't do what you want ? alexis : i honestly do n't know the answer to that . julian : well , i do n't want that . alexis : i do n't want that . but i ca n't tell you that i can do that when i do n't know if i can -- not if you go down that road ... julian : [ sighs ] alexis : ... because you 'll be walking in blood the entire time , regardless of -- of whatever your boss promises you . you need to -- you need to know that ... and that i love you . luke : you know , there 's really only one thing to do . olivia : hmm ? luke : talk it out . why do n't we go somewhere quiet ? you can undress your feelings . olivia : you know , luke , i do n't think i ever knew you had this sensitive side . luke : well , when it comes to family , no holds barred . olivia : thank you . but you know what ? i 'm gon na be okay . luke : you sure ? olivia : yeah . and you should get home to your new bride . you know , i got to tell you -- it shows some real flair , the way you exchanged those vows right in the middle of the nurses ' ball like that . and i wish you and tracy all the happiness in the world . luke : yeah , thanks . you 're probably right . she 's probably missing me about now . olivia : well , go . go . luke : one last piece of advice . olivia : mm - hmm . luke : do n't trust ric lansing . i mean , your relationship with sonny may be evolving , but that does n't mean his brother is not a threat . i walk along the frozen ground i walk alone with my head down keep on , keep on do n't stop dreaming keep on , keep on she 's not leaving [ violin plays ] elizabeth : this feels familiar . ric : mm , like riding a bike , is n't it ? elizabeth : it 's better . ric : you know , like , dancing was something we were born to do . we were born to do other things , too , elizabeth . olivia : honey , i hope you do n't mind . i 'm taking the night off . carly : no , whoa -- i do n't mind at all . are you okay ? olivia : uh , so - so . i guess i could n't be any worse off than morgan , right ? i 'll see you tomorrow . carly : wait a second . what 's wrong with morgan ? olivia : well , i would imagine he 's pretty busted up after the way he lost ava . carly : ava and morgan broke up ? olivia : you did n't know ? carly : no . no . i mean , i - i had no idea . franco and i were out of town . we were on a trip , and , well , it 's definitely good news . i 'm just glad morgan came to his senses . olivia : well , you can mail that thank - you note to sonny . carly : sonny ? what does sonny have to do with this ? ava : sonny , i 'm telling you the truth . sonny : you 're telling me the truth , but you conveniently left a - a big part of that out ... like you told shawn to shut his mouth or you were gon na go to the cops and turn me in for aj 's shooting . ava : i - i said that in the heat of the moment . i did n't mean that . sonny : oh , i see . ava : my brother wanted my head . i need to get out of town , and i knew that if shawn outed me , i would never get your protection . sonny : you think you got a silver tongue , do n't you ? you 've been doing this for so long that you are untouchable . but i will hurt you . ava : no , you wo n't . sonny : mm . come on . ava : because i am your ally . i helped you cover up what you did to aj , did n't i ? have n't i kept your secret ? sonny : oh , yeah , you keep a lot of secrets . you 're really good at that , and you 're really good at a lot of things ... like helping me to cover my tracks , convincing me not to confess to michael . ava : because i do n't want to see you go down . i did that for you . sonny : stop lying ! well , you know why you did it . shawn : you have it all figured out , huh ? jordan : i know what i 'm doing . shawn : and now so does tj . wonder how your release and return to the jeromes is gon na play out with him . or maybe you just do n't give a damn .

is that what you 're saying ? ava : god , no ! sonny : okay . ava : franco was the target . i was scared to death of him . i needed to dispose of him for kiki 's sake . you , more than anyone , must understand that protecting our children is our top priority , especially from psychopaths like that . i still shudder when i think of what he did to michael . my god , sonny . you must hate franco just as much , if not more , than i did . franco : i guess ava 's fate is out of our hands . carly : yes , that 's a good thing . franco : that 's a good thing ? is that what you just said ? it 's a good thing ? carly : i know that you do n't want kiki to mourn . i understand that . franco : carly , i 'm thinking about kiki , but i 'm also thinking about you . carly : me ? you 're thinking about me ? why ? franco : i know firsthand what it 's like to take a life . and you keep saying that sonny 's gon na kill ava . and if that happens , then you 're gon na feel responsible , and i - i do n't want -- i do n't want you to have to go through that . carly : you 're worried about me ? franco : yeah , i 'm worried about you , carly . carly : well , i do n't want you to think that i 'm taking this lightly . franco : i do n't know what to think . carly : i did the right thing . i 'm not gon na lose any sleep over this . ava deserves what she 's got coming . ava : tell me i 'm wrong -- that i was n't justified in going after franco . you ca n't , because just like me , you wanted him gone the minute he reared his ugly head . sonny : well , you got me there . but usually , when i call for an execution , somebody winds up executed . ava : i made a mistake . sonny : you think ? ava : i was horrified when i hurt olivia . and i did n't even know you then -- not like i do now . we 're friends . i would never do anything to hurt you intentionally . please tell me you believe that . sonny : not another word out of your lying , dirty mouth . alexis : we knew there was a risk if you decided to leave the organization , but that is no reason to turn back now . julian : i have no choice . alexis : yes , you do . you -- you made your choice when you decided to change your life for your family . julian : and look what happened , alexis . i - i have to reverse course . it 's the only way that i can protect everyone . alexis : who 's gon na protect you ?

[ chuckles ] nicole : she looks perfect . she really is a ... eric : what ? what is it ? nicole : what 's that on her neck ? eric : it 's a birthmark . you never noticed it before ? nicole : what 's up with kristen ? brady : the memories of our -- of our daughter are becoming more and more distant for her , and she was afraid that she was going to lose them completely . nicole : well , at least she did get to be with her . brady : i know . i mean , we get to hold on to that , but ... i was helping her relive those minutes and make her remember , and i was really surprised at what we were able to recall . i mean , her -- her mouth , her eyes . she even remembered that rachel had a very faint heart - shaped birthmark on her neck . [ dramatic music ] rafe : i need to put an apb out on evan frears , aka christian maddox . he 's most likely traveling with a toddler . we can not let him leave salem . okay . damn it , how did he -- how did he get away ? he must 've known that we were tailing him . i should 've known that . i should 've known that he would know that . eli : rafe , it 's not your fault , all right ? you had to try . lani : look , it looks like this guy has known the authorities were chasing him for a while . you know what , rafe , i 'm gon na call my dad and let him know that we 're gon na join the search , okay ? rafe : okay . oh , my god . where 'd you get that ? lani : we found it in the square , why ? rafe : this is david 's train . evan : you have no idea how badly i 've been dying to see him . it 's a good thing i lost the cops that rafe had tailing me . i 'm not surprised you were able to lose the tail . after all , you learned from the best . you learned from orpheus . | will and sonny did n't understand how evan was able to go free . rafe explained that he was the reason why the judge let evan go . he thought that he could lead him to david . after he talked to them , rafe went back to evan . he told him that he was free , but could n't leave salem . he wanted answers about david . he told evan that he would allow him to see david if he told him where to find him . sarah walked up and saw xander with dr. raynor . she noticed they were tense . xander quickly covered up what they were discussing . sarah seemed fine with his answer and took a call from maggie . xander wanted to know if raynor was leaving salem . she would leave if everything went well for the baby . kristen went to mickey 's room and saw eric there . she apologized to him for what she did to him and nicole . she assured him that she changed and cared for his daughter . eric appreciated her concern and for her getting tested to see if she was a donor for mickey . she asked how she was doing and he was optimistic because the surgery went well . kristen was relieved and started crying . he apologized for her loss . she wanted to hold the baby . he could n't let her do it because her immune system was compromised . | <s>[INST] lani : mm - hmm . eli : we got a bite to eat . lani : mm - hmm . eli : now do you want to go back to the apartment ? lani : no . eli : [ sighs ] lani : as great as our little bubble has been , you do know we have to come out and face the real world . eli : yeah , i guess you 're right . lani : [ giggles ] eli : that bubble has been pretty sweet , though , has n't it ? lani : very sweet . but i 've checked my messages and we have missed out on so much while we were reconnecting . eli : yeah , you know , that situation with marlena , steve , and hope , that sounds crazy . eli : yeah , and david is still missing . i really can not believe that his nanny is actually his father . eli : not to mention jordan 's killer . lani : i just feel so bad for little david . eli : i know how much you care about that little boy . lani : yeah , i do . and i can only imagine what rafe is going through . sonny : how the hell did you make bail ? evan : the judge was nice enough to set it at a reasonable number . will : you 're a murderer , and you kidnapped a child . evan : i guess they do n't consider it kidnapping when he 's your own son . rafe : i 'm david 's guardian . you have no legal claim on him . evan : actually , you 're the one with no legal claim and no right to keep me here , so , as fun as this has been , i 'm gon na hit the road . rafe : not so fast . you 're not going anywhere . brady : where did kristen go ? i mean , why would she run off like that ? nicole : maybe i drove her out of the building . better yet , maybe the country . brady : mm - hmm , so much for your sympathy . nicole : look . i told you , when it comes to losing the baby , i feel for her , but i am never gon na forgive kristen for what she did to me . brady : i know . she was really struggling today , nic , i mean , she -- she was worried about forgetting our baby entirely . when i helped her remember , i thought it would help , i thought it would make things better , but ... what would make her run off without telling me ? eric : i promise you , i 'm gon na be right here by your side . always . so is your mommy .

[ door clicks shut ] sonny : this is ridiculous . she 's already hiding david . who 's to say evan wo n't take off too ? will : he could walk out the door and we would never see david again . sonny : well , how did -- how did the judge make a decision like this ? rafe : 'cause i asked him to . lani : rafe must be so overwhelmed , with the search with marlena , hope not being around , everything that happened with gabi , and now david being taken by someone that he thought he trusted . eli : it 's a lot , even for a guy like rafe . lani : you know , maybe he could use some help . what ? eli : okay . i mean , we 're not on the force anymore , so we do n't have to follow any protocol . maybe it 'll be a good thing . lani : okay . and are you sure you are ready for our -- our bubble to end ? eli : uh , no .

'cause i heard that you left the hospital in a hurry . xander : oh , i - i just had to go home and check in with victor on a few things . sarah : okay , what 's going on ? why do you both look so tense ? [ dramatic music ] brady : why would kristen feel the need to check up on mackenzie ? nicole : why does that woman do anything ? brady : that 's not helpful . it 's not . nicole : i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . but that woman is really hard to figure out , you know ? and if she tries to go anywhere near mackenzie , i 'm not sure how eric 's gon na react . brady : i should get over there , just to make sure nothing goes wrong . nicole : i 'm going with you . [ tense music ] eric : listen , i appreciate your concern for mickey 's recovery . i heard you allowed yourself to be tested as a possible donor . sarah and i are both grateful . kristen : well , it 's the least that i could do . how is she ? you do n't have to tell me if you do n't want to , i understand . eric : actually , we , uh ... we just received some good news a little while ago . kristen : you did ? really ? eric : yeah , it turns out that mickey 's new bone marrow is actually producing blood cells faster than they even thought it would . kristen : that 's wonderful , eric . eric : yeah . it 's good . her transplant was successful , so we 're very hopeful . i think we 're optimistic for a full recovery . kristen : well , that is the best news that i could ask for . god is good . [ tender music ] xander : sorry , even with the good news , i just wanted to make sure it was real and that mickey was definitely getting the absolute best care , you know ? sarah : there 's still a long road ahead , but i genuinely believe with dr . raynor 's help , things are only gon na get better . dr. raynor : i believe that too . sarah : amanda , you have been so amazing . could we set up a time to talk about where we go from here with mickey 's treatment ? dr. raynor : i , uh -- i have rounds to make , but i 'll text you . sarah : okay . great . xander : oh , i want to thank you , too , doctor , for everything you 've done . and victor kiriakis asked me to pass along his gratitude and admiration . [ phone ringing ] sarah : oh , um , that 's my mom . she must 've talked to victor . i 'm just gon na grab this . thanks , eric . xander : so do we have a deal ? are you gon na leave salem , or are we gon na have a problem ?

[ foreboding music ] rafe : processing is done . you 're free to go . evan : sweeter words have never been spoken . rafe : remember , you do n't show up for your court date , you lose your bail money . evan : i 'm aware of how bail works . i 'm not going anywhere . rafe : okay . just letting you know . evan : want to step aside and let me get to the door ? rafe : actually , figured i 'd just give you one last chance to tell me where david is . evan : okay . why would i do that ? rafe : well , because you 're still going to trial for jordan 's murder , and i think the case against you is actually pretty strong . evan : so if i tell you where david is , you -- you advocate for leniency . rafe : i could even tell the court that i 'm not opposed to supervised visitation rights . evan : hmm . it 's not your call to make , is it ? rafe : no . no , it 's not , but as an officer of the law and legal guardian , my case would be very strong . evan : mm - kay . well , uh , here 's my opinion . talk to my lawyer . leave me alone . i 'm out of here . take care , commish . [ atmospheric music ] [ phone beeps ] rafe : hey , it 's me . yeah , he just left . leaving the station now . xander : hey , what 's your answer ? can i go back and tell victor that we 've seen the last of you ? dr. raynor : look , i know you and mr . kiriakis were upset that i accepted that check and continued to work on mackenzie 's case . xander : the deal was we were never to see you again . dr. raynor : yeah , i understand . but sarah is a friend and a colleague , and she was a wreck about the baby , and even though mackenzie 's not really hers -- xander : do n't you ever say that again , ever . dr. raynor : okay , i won't . but you need to understand what it means to be a doctor . i took an oath . i was lucky enough to save that little girl 's life , and when you save a life , you feel responsible for it . xander : it is your own life you need to worry about . dr. raynor : okay . okay . if you 're trying to scare me about what victor kiriakis is capable of , then you 've succeeded . so yes , we have a deal . xander : see ? i knew they did n't give out all those fancy degrees to just any old dum - dum . you 're doing the right thing . dr. raynor : [ scoffs ] right thing . [ eerie music ] [ elevator bell dings ] kristen : i have been praying for your little girl every single day . eric : thank you for that . i just want you to know that no matter our past history , i just ... i 'm truly sorry for the pain you suffered after losing your daughter . kristen : yeah . i think about her every day , and ... i wish there was some way i -- something i could 've done to save her life . but you know what , i am so glad that dr . raynor -- and god -- saved mackenzie 's . eric : thank you . kristen : i know that this is a big ask , but ... do you think i could hold her for a minute ? as a caricature artist , sonny : i really hope rafe is right and evan will lead the police right to david . will : and i hope that when they find him , they finally lock that maniac up for good . [ solemn music ] sonny : you 're probably wondering how i ever got involved with a guy like that in the first place . will : no , no , sorry , i -- no , i did n't mean it like that . sonny : that 's what you were thinking . i mean , that 's what -- that 's what i 'm thinking . i mean , like , how in the hell could i be so blind ? will : sonny , you were lonely . you know , your husband was in -- in prison . sonny : i know . i was hurt . and evan , he was -- you know , he was sweet . he was good with ari , and he listened . he 's literally nothing like the guy that we just saw at the station , you need to know that . will : yeah , i -- okay . it 's okay . sonny , i - i do n't blame you for anything . you need to stop blaming yourself . okay ? so i am going to go check on ari , and in the meantime , why do n't you pour us , you know , a couple glasses of wine so we can get the night started ? [ hopeful music ] rafe : well , make sure evan does n't get away , but do n't get too close . okay . all right . keep me posted . i 'm ready to move whenever he lands . okay . lani : there he is . hey . eli : hey , rafe . rafe : oh , hey . hey , guys . hey . listen , i just wanted to say i 'm sorry , okay , for everything that gabi put you through , and , you know , if i 'd have known ... lani : hey , rafe . rafe : about the whole -- the pacemaker in julie ... lani : we know , okay ? eli : none of that matters right now . rafe : okay . good , good . what are you doing here ? lani : well , we heard about what 's going on with david , and we want to help any way that we can . rafe : oh , man , i appreciate that . eli : what 's the latest ? rafe : well , the latest is , evan has been released on bail . lani : what ? he 's out already ? rafe : it 's okay . i requested that his bail be set low so that we can tail him . eli : well , is someone on him ? rafe : yeah . obviously , i could n't do it , 'cause he 's gon na be looking out for me . lani : right , but you have a team tracking him , right ? rafe : oh , yeah , yeah , yeah . we are ready to move as soon as he lands and hopefully he will lead us right to david . kristen : you have no idea how much it would mean to me . i only got to hold rachel for a short time and -- and then she was gone . eric : kristen , i understand , but i ca n't let you hold her . kristen : you ca n't ? eric : it 's just that mickey 's immune system is compromised , so we have to be very careful who we allow to hold her . kristen : it 's okay , it 's okay , it 's okay , i understand . eric : i 'm sorry . kristen : it 's okay . [ melancholy music ] brady : that 's mackenzie 's doctor . nicole : why do n't you go to her room and try to find kristen before she does something crazy ? brady : you 're not gon na come ? nicole : will you just tell eric i 'll be there soon ? brady : okay , okay . nicole : okay .

sam : i accidentally said something to julian about ... our brother . julian : she said somebody by the name of lucas probably would n't want anything to do with me , either . ava : lucas ? who 's that ?

luke : uh ... it ? be specific . what `` it `` do you refer to ? tracy : the `` it `` that may or may not connect jerry jacks to ava jerome and her brother . luke , you almost died . luke : i 'm all better now . tracy : oh , well , why do n't you stay all better and not become a target for jerry jacks or the jeromes , for that matter ? they are not people you want to cross , nor are their associates . carlos : you 're making a big mistake . sonny : this is happening . the least you can do is man up and accept it . take him . take him . carlos : no , wait , wait , wait ! you 've got to hear this . you have to hear this . shawn : look , i do n't know about you , man , but i 'm -- i 've had enough . carlos : please , you said that i was n't related to your late wife , but you were wrong . i am related to lily rivera . i 'm her brother . carly : you told julian jerome about lucas ? ! sam : no , no , no . no , not exactly . i just sort of blurted out his name . carly : what exactly did you say ? sam : i just said that i did n't want to have anything to do with him and i thought that lucas probably would n't want anything to do with him , either . but , carly , i promise that 's all i said . carly : you should have seen the look on my mother 's face , sam , when i told her that julian jerome was alive and well here in port charles . she was terrified . you know , she asked me how long would it be before julian finds out about lucas , and now i get to tell her as long as it took for him to have a conversation with you ! sam : okay , i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to say anything . i promise you -- i promise you julian does not know much . carly : just enough to make him curious . julian : well , there does n't seem to be anybody by the name in lucas in sam 's family . there 's nobody by that name in our family ... unless , of course , your , uh , mother had another , uh , bastard . ava : [ chuckles ] wow . you just love throwing that `` bastard `` part in , do n't you ? julian : statement of facts . so , any chance that , uh , you have another sibling that you forgot to mention ? ava : did my mom have another kid with father ? doubtful . after i was born , delia became obsessed with a more ... gauche family . julian : it 's just that the way sam mentioned his name , it sounded as if this lucas was supposed to be important to me . ava : are you sure you 're not reading too much into this ? interpreting a random statement as much more important than it actually is ? julian : no , no , no , no . when she mentioned his name , it was not random . ava : well , i 'm sorry , julian . i ca n't help you . the only lucas i know of in this town is lucas lorenzo spencer . luke : let 's forget the jerome and what they may or may not have had to do with jerry 's disappearance . we have some celebrating to do . [ cork pops ] tracy : whew ! well , yes and no . our respective families are dealing with a lot of pain at the moment . luke : i 've never seen lulu so low . but she 'll come out the other side . she 's a spencer . tracy : amen to that . luke : you know , if there 's anything that the last few months have taught me , it 's that you have to enjoy every moment . life is short . tracy : too short . luke : you have to savor the good , and , spanky , we done good . tracy : we did . luke : so , let 's savor it . to us . tracy : to us . and you 're right about what we have to celebrate . you and sean got the cure , a.j . is finally gon na get what 's coming to him , and if i can just get monica out of this house , i 'd have it all to myself ! [ laughter ] monica : well , do n't you mean my house ? tracy : monica , i 'm not gon na snipe with you . it must have been very painful watching your son get convicted of murder , no matter how much he deserved it . what the hell ? monica : you were saying ? scott : ladies and gentlemen of the jury , to you 12 blind idiots . and my first case as d.a . into my own waterloo . [ knocking on door ] [ knocking continues ] scott : keep your shirt on . [ knocking continues ] scott : [ clears throat ] [ sighs ] lucy : so , i see you 're just as angry as i am . scott : you heard . lucy : yeah , i heard . scott : can you believe it ? lucy : no , i ca n't believe it . i ca n't believe you finally find a long lost son and you throw him to the curb . scott : kick . you kick someone to the curb . lucy : oh , well , that too . listen to me . franco told me that you just cast him aside , just got rid of him because you wanted to protect your precious career . scott : well , some career i have left . lucy : you know something ? i have never been more disappointed in you in your entire life . i mean , you -- you find this great guy , this man who , as troubled as he may be , he is actually your son . scott : [ sighs ] yes , as if i need any more bad news . lucy : okay , okay . maybe he 's not that bad , you know ? i mean , maybe he was n't that bad . because whatever franco did or did n't do , he did because he was under the influence of that horrible tumor . and -- and they did -- they dispersed all the things that he was responsible for because that tumor made him do it , and -- and he was n't responsible for that . and now he 's had the tumor cut out , and now he actually is a - a better person . scott : but he still has the same bad attitude . would you like a cocktail ? lucy : no , i would not . have you ever just kind of considered why ? why did he turn out that way ? scott : well , because of this tumor that you 've been lecturing me about . lucy : no , just stop . just think . imagine if he 'd had a father figure , someone that would have recognized the early warning signs of this psychosis . scott : lucy , lucy , he needs a shrink , not a father . lucy : [ sighs ] well , you are an amazing father , and i would n't trade you for any other parent partner . i 'm -- i 'm just trying to imagine how you might have helped franco , what you could have done for him . scott : it 's a little late for that right now . lucy : no . no . it 's not too late at all . i really think that franco could use guidance in his life still . i - i feel like he 's in a really bad place . scott : do i want to ask how bad ? lucy : well , you know , just a few years ago , he was probably celebrated as one of the most famous , wonderful artists on the planet , and now he 's pushing a laundry cart . scott : [ sighs ] franco : i gave you every chance to back off , and you just would n't do it . you just could n't stop , and you were n't gon na stop until you killed carly , so i had to stop you , and maybe you thought that with the tumor gone that i did n't have it in me . but i do , because , mother ... there is n't anything i would n't do to keep carly safe . so , it turns out that my ... ability is n't gone . it 's still there for when i need it , like when somebody makes me do something like you made me do something . carlos : lily rivera is my sister . sonny : you 're not related . shawn checked . carlos : well , then , shawn did n't check hard enough . i 'm her brother . sonny : she 's an only child . carlos : no , lily was an only legitimate child . my father had a mistress . many men do . shawn : oh , come on , man . this is a bunch of bull , sonny . he 's reaching . ca n't you see that ? carlos : no , i 'm not ! sonny : hey ! hey ! i want to hear it . carlos : my father never married my mother , but he gave me his last name . he did n't have a legitimate son to take over the business . he wanted me to do it , but my mother -- she did n't want -- she did n't want me to have any part of it . she did not want this for my life . shawn : sonny , look , he 's lying . carlos : i 'm not . you just do n't want to admit you missed something . my mother hid me away . she was afraid of my father 's enemies . shawn : so , why did n't lily tell her husband ? or did n't she know ? carlos : she knew . lily knew about me . she respected my mother 's wishes . she did n't tell anybody about me . shawn : [ chuckles ] that 's a convenient story . carlos : yeah , well , the truth often is . shawn : do n't believe this man . carlos : you loved my sister , yeah ? well , she died . her and her baby died because of you . you really gon na kill her only brother now ? tracy : the case was a slam dunk . how could the d.a . let him go ? luke : what do you expect ? the people elected baldwin . michael : well , actually , uh , he was found not guilty because there was no evidence . tracy : oh , michael , you know better than that . and you -- you 're a smart girl . tell him . a.j . killed connie because he was drunk , in a rage , and he wanted someone to blame . you -- you 're no angel , but at least you paid for your crime . michael : wait , i confessed because i killed claudia . a.j . does n't even remember what happened to connie . tracy : no . a.j . does n't have the character or the integrity to admit what he did and pay the consequences . michael : well , there was reasonable doubt . luke : michael , do you ever think that you might be defending the wrong person ? i mean , i 'm no fan of the so - called justice system , but i 'd be plenty pissed if i had to go to pentonville for saving a child from a psychopath while some guy who shot a defenseless woman walks free . tracy : there 's no justice . connie deserved better , and you know it . come on , luke . let 's go celebrate some place else . michael : you know , a.j . , do n't listen to them , okay ? this is -- this is a great day . you 're a free man , right ? a.j . : yeah . yeah . monica : listen , tracy has always been a poisonous shrew , but tonight , she 's actually -- she 's right . we should celebrate . i 'm gon na have cook two fix a wonderful meal , all of your favorites . kiki : yes ! cook two . everything is so delicious . michael : well , maybe we should give cook two the heads up , right ? kiki : yes ! yeah . we 'll do that . great . a.j . : you know , luke makes a good point . i mean , how can michael not resent me for this ? kiki : how are you feeling ? michael : i - i do n't care what we have for dinner . kiki : that 's not what i 'm talking about . how do you feel about what tracy said ? michael : i do n't know . i mean , everyone has a right to their own opinion . not everyone 's gon na be happy that a.j . was acquitted , and , uh , [ sighs ] especially my dad . shawn : i vetted that family . there 's nothing to suggest that this punk is lily 's brother . carlos : i told you . my mother hid me away . lily would never put me in danger by -- by telling the truth to anybody , especially you , sonny . everybody knew that you , as lily 's husband , were set to take over my father 's business . sonny : listen to me . for lily 's sake , i need to prove you wrong . we 're gon na keep you some place safe until we find that proof . if you 're lying , i will kill you myself ! get him out of here ! sam : however you and -- and bobbie and lucas want to handle this , just tell me . i 'll do whatever you want . carly : okay . great . thanks . yeah . sam : okay ? well , how did lucas take the news ? carly : that julian jerome is his biological father ? i do n't know , sam . my mom was really upset . i doubt she even called him . [ sighs ] sam : well , carly , did he -- i mean , has he asked about me ? do n't look at me like that . i am his sister . carlos : i 'm his sister . you know what ? thanks for the warning , but you really need to go . sam : are you throwing me out ? carly : i told you i was busy . sam : busy ? [ chuckling ] wait a minute . are you having some sort of a date tonight ? carly : hey , it 's nothing , all right ? i 'm busy . sam : it 's nothing ? you 're dressed up in a black dress and heels , and who -- who 's place is -- oh , no . carly . carly : hmm ? sam : is this franco 's place ? franco : [ grunting ] [ exclaims ] what -- ? [ chuckles ] thanks . [ sighs ] lucy : you know , franco may not be the son that you dreamed about , but he 's the only one you have . come on , pal . logan is gone . you have -- scott : lucy , i lost the case . lucy : what ? scott : the a.j . quartermaine murder trial . it was open and shut , and i blew it . lucy : oh , pal . i 'm -- i am so sorry . scott : okay . well , now you know , so trust me right now . i ca n't really deal with some lunatic that claims to be my son . i have got a career to mourn . lucy : hey , you won that election fair and square . well , you won . the point is they ca n't just recall you just 'cause you had one little , teeny tiny lost case . scott : my political career now has been neutered . that 's it . i lost laura . i 've lost my career . the only thing i have in this life now is ... lucy : is what ? scott : is you . sam : this romantic dinner -- this is for you and franco ? carly : this is none of your business , and if it is dinner for me and franco , so what ? carly : yes , i am . i 'm seeing him . sam : wow . you 're not even denying it . carly : what 's the point ? it 's all gon na come out anyway . so , yes , be the first to know that franco and i -- we 're just gon na see where it goes . sam : after everything he 's done to me ? carly : sam , he was sick . sam : sick ? ! carly : he was n't in control of his actions , and -- and i realize that you might not be able to accept that , okay ? i understand , just like i understand that people may have concerns . sam : yeah . people are gon na have a lot of concerns , and they 're gon na wonder what the hell you 're doing . forget about me . i mean , sonny -- i ca n't even imagine what sonny would think , but what about jason ? carly , what do you think jason would think about this ? carly : jason would think it was a terrible idea . but he would tell me that it 's my decision to make . and he would stand by me regardless . you know that . sam : no . i know that jason loved you and he would not want you dating a psychopath carly : franco 's not a psychopath , okay ? he 's not . sam , he 's changed , and i have seen it for myself . franco is not that man anymore . franco : you really should have stayed away from carly . [ sighs ] [ sighs ] [ vocalizing softly ] [ cell phone rings ] sonny : michael ? michael : hey , dad . sonny : what happened ? michael : you have n't heard but , um , the verdict came in . sonny : he 's convicted ? michael : no . no , he was n't . um , he was found not guilty . sonny : how ? michael : uh , there must have been reasonable doubt . i mean , diane said all along there was n't enough evidence . sonny : so , a.j . 's free ? michael : yeah , dad . look , i - i know how much you hate this , but a.j . was acquitted . i just really hope you 're not gon na try and take the law into your own hands . sonny : all right , michael . thanks for , uh , letting me know about this . michael : look , i love you , dad . sonny : i love you , too , buddy . [ sighs ] i do n't believe in justice . i -- i 'm not sure i ever did . but i promise you , lily , if this guy who says he 's your brother -- i promise i 'm not gon na kill him unless i know for sure he 's not . julian : i do n't know . the way that sam mentioned lucas -- it did n't sound like she was referring to luke spencer . it sounded as if it was ... family . ava : well , there 's a simple solution . just ask sam who she 's talking about . julian : oh , given the way things ended last night , sam wo n't be providing any answers . you know what ? does n't mean i ca n't find them myself . carly : i do n't need anyone to validate my relationship with franco . sam : ha ! did you -- did you just hear yourself ? you just called it a relationship . carly : i 'm not going to fight with you , sam . we 've been through too much . i accept that you think i 'm wrong . but it 's my decision , and it 's been made . sam : okay . i would say that i - i hope that you are making the right decision , but clearly , clearly , you are not . carly : [ sighs ] [ cell phone rings ] franco : oh . [ sighs ] hey . carly : finally you pick up ! what 's taking you so long ? scott : you should probably get home to your husband , kevin . lucy : i moved out . i 've been sleeping on the couch in my office . scott : oh , yeah ? lucy : oh , yeah . what convinced you of mr. quartermaine 's innocence ? nothing really . most of us thought he was guilty as sin , but there just was n't enough evidence . we did n't have enough to convict a guilty man . franco : yeah , well , the , uh -- the interview -- the interview went really great , you know ? it just took a long time . they kept bumping me up . i talked to , like , two supervisors . carly : that 's great ! well , hurry back , okay ? i have a surprise for you . [ clatters ] carly : what 's that ? franco : um , oh , it 's nothing . a surprise -- that sounds awesome . it 's got to be a good surprise , right ? 'cause why would you tell me about a - a bad surprise ? right ? so , now that i know it 's a good surprise , you mind telling me , uh , just how good it is ? | tracy watches the news and sees that deception 's launch is delayed and aj 's verdict is in . monica rushes to get to the courthouse in time to hear the verdict . luke waits with tracy to hear the verdict . he tells her that he got the cure to sean donely . she wonders what happened to jerry jacks after he fell off the roof . luke thinks the jeromes helped him . tracy tells him to stay out of it , but luke is intrigued . the jury finds aj `` not guilty . `` tracy is shocked to see aj come home . aj drinks when he sees a juror on tv saying that they had to acquit a guilty man , because there was n't enough evidence to convict him . | <s>[INST] tv announcer : and how will this delay the launch of deception ? only time will tell us in this very unpredictable upscale market . monica : oh , turn that off .

[ slaps ] do n't you worry . i am going to talk to scott right now . franco : no , no , no . uh , really , you do n't need to go to the trouble . lucy : yes , i do . franco : uh , no . you do n't -- i mean , not on my account . lucy : [ sighs ] i really , really want to speak with scott . franco : oh ... good . i really , really ... have more important things than father on my mind . scott : you know , the jury may say that you 're not guilty , but they 'll never declare you innocent , 'cause you killed that man . you know it , and i know it . and you 're gon na spend the rest of your miserable life living with that . julian : actually , i 'm glad you 're here . there 's something we need to talk about . ava : really ? what 's that ? julian : my daughter . sam : i ran into julian , my -- my father , last night . carly : how 'd that go ? sam : well , he acted like nothing changed , that we could still work on this friendship -- this fake relationship that he pretended we had while he was acting like derek wells . carly : well , i hope you told him to go to hell . sam : well , of course . i said that i did n't want to have anything to do with him . julian : sam does n't want a relationship with me . ava : uh , ah , at the risk of sounding unsympathetic , she made it pretty clear the night the truth of your identity came out that she wanted nothing to do with you . the fact that she still feels that way is hardly a revelation . julian : it was n't just that . it was something that sam said afterwards . sam : in the heat of the moment , i said something without thinking . carly : what did you say ? sam : i accidentally said something to julian about ... our brother . julian : she said somebody by the name of lucas probably would n't want anything to do with me , either . ava : lucas ? who 's that ? julian : well , that 's what i need to find out . tracy : ava jerome ? you think that ava helped jerry jacks escape ? luke : she was at the scene of the crime acting awfully squirrelly for my taste . tracy : luke , i got to know ava a little bit when she was living here . and although she 's not the warm and fuzzy type , i definitely think that jerry jacks ' form of mayhem is a little bit beyond her , although he does have ties to the mob . luke : well , so does ava , if you read the paper . and this spud named , uh , derek wells turns out is actually julian jerome . now , i did n't know the man myself , never had any dealings with him , but i 've heard stories . the jeromes were heavy hitters , probably still are . does n't take a rocket scientist to know that this julian is here trying to take over the territory . tracy : you sound intrigued . luke : i like to keep up on current events . tracy : uh - huh . well , i 've got an idea . now that you and sean are cured , how about you stay the hell out of it ? luke : uh ... it ? be specific . what `` it `` do you refer to ? tracy : the `` it `` that may or may not connect jerry jacks to ava jerome and her brother . luke , you almost died . luke : i 'm all better now . tracy : oh , well , why do n't you stay all better and not become a target for jerry jacks or the jeromes , for that matter ? they are not people you want to cross , nor are their associates . carlos : you 're making a big mistake . sonny : this is happening . the least you can do is man up and accept it . take him . take him . carlos : no , wait , wait , wait ! you 've got to hear this . you have to hear this . shawn : look , i do n't know about you , man , but i 'm -- i 've had enough . carlos : please , you said that i was n't related to your late wife , but you were wrong . i am related to lily rivera . i 'm her brother . carly : you told julian jerome about lucas ? ! sam : no , no , no . no , not exactly . i just sort of blurted out his name . carly : what exactly did you say ? sam : i just said that i did n't want to have anything to do with him and i thought that lucas probably would n't want anything to do with him , either . but , carly , i promise that 's all i said . carly : you should have seen the look on my mother 's face , sam , when i told her that julian jerome was alive and well here in port charles . she was terrified . you know , she asked me how long would it be before julian finds out about lucas , and now i get to tell her as long as it took for him to have a conversation with you ! sam : okay , i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to say anything . i promise you -- i promise you julian does not know much . carly : just enough to make him curious . julian : well , there does n't seem to be anybody by the name in lucas in sam 's family . there 's nobody by that name in our family ... unless , of course , your , uh , mother had another , uh , bastard . ava : [ chuckles ] wow . you just love throwing that `` bastard `` part in , do n't you ? julian : statement of facts . so , any chance that , uh , you have another sibling that you forgot to mention ? ava : did my mom have another kid with father ? doubtful . after i was born , delia became obsessed with a more ... gauche family . julian : it 's just that the way sam mentioned his name , it sounded as if this lucas was supposed to be important to me . ava : are you sure you 're not reading too much into this ? interpreting a random statement as much more important than it actually is ? julian : no , no , no , no . when she mentioned his name , it was not random . ava : well , i 'm sorry , julian . i ca n't help you . the only lucas i know of in this town is lucas lorenzo spencer . luke : let 's forget the jerome and what they may or may not have had to do with jerry 's disappearance . we have some celebrating to do . [ cork pops ] tracy : whew ! well , yes and no . our respective families are dealing with a lot of pain at the moment . luke : i 've never seen lulu so low . but she 'll come out the other side . she 's a spencer . tracy : amen to that . luke : you know , if there 's anything that the last few months have taught me , it 's that you have to enjoy every moment . life is short . tracy : too short . luke : you have to savor the good , and , spanky , we done good . tracy : we did . luke : so , let 's savor it . to us . tracy : to us . and you 're right about what we have to celebrate . you and sean got the cure , a.j . is finally gon na get what 's coming to him , and if i can just get monica out of this house , i 'd have it all to myself ! [ laughter ] monica : well , do n't you mean my house ? tracy : monica , i 'm not gon na snipe with you . it must have been very painful watching your son get convicted of murder , no matter how much he deserved it . what the hell ? monica : you were saying ? scott : ladies and gentlemen of the jury , to you 12 blind idiots . and my first case as d.a . into my own waterloo . [ knocking on door ] [ knocking continues ] scott : keep your shirt on . [ knocking continues ] scott : [ clears throat ] [ sighs ] lucy : so , i see you 're just as angry as i am . scott : you heard . lucy : yeah , i heard . scott : can you believe it ? lucy : no , i ca n't believe it . i ca n't believe you finally find a long lost son and you throw him to the curb . scott : kick . you kick someone to the curb . lucy : oh , well , that too . listen to me . franco told me that you just cast him aside , just got rid of him because you wanted to protect your precious career . scott : well , some career i have left . lucy : you know something ? i have never been more disappointed in you in your entire life . i mean , you -- you find this great guy , this man who , as troubled as he may be , he is actually your son . scott : [ sighs ] yes , as if i need any more bad news . lucy : okay , okay . maybe he 's not that bad , you know ? i mean , maybe he was n't that bad . because whatever franco did or did n't do , he did because he was under the influence of that horrible tumor . and -- and they did -- they dispersed all the things that he was responsible for because that tumor made him do it , and -- and he was n't responsible for that . and now he 's had the tumor cut out , and now he actually is a - a better person . scott : but he still has the same bad attitude . would you like a cocktail ? lucy : no , i would not . have you ever just kind of considered why ? why did he turn out that way ? scott : well , because of this tumor that you 've been lecturing me about . lucy : no , just stop . just think . imagine if he 'd had a father figure , someone that would have recognized the early warning signs of this psychosis . scott : lucy , lucy , he needs a shrink , not a father . lucy : [ sighs ] well , you are an amazing father , and i would n't trade you for any other parent partner . i 'm -- i 'm just trying to imagine how you might have helped franco , what you could have done for him . scott : it 's a little late for that right now . lucy : no . no . it 's not too late at all . i really think that franco could use guidance in his life still . i - i feel like he 's in a really bad place . scott : do i want to ask how bad ? lucy : well , you know , just a few years ago , he was probably celebrated as one of the most famous , wonderful artists on the planet , and now he 's pushing a laundry cart . scott : [ sighs ] franco : i gave you every chance to back off , and you just would n't do it . you just could n't stop , and you were n't gon na stop until you killed carly , so i had to stop you , and maybe you thought that with the tumor gone that i did n't have it in me . but i do , because , mother ... there is n't anything i would n't do to keep carly safe . so , it turns out that my ... ability is n't gone . it 's still there for when i need it , like when somebody makes me do something like you made me do something . carlos : lily rivera is my sister . sonny : you 're not related . shawn checked . carlos : well , then , shawn did n't check hard enough . i 'm her brother . sonny : she 's an only child . carlos : no , lily was an only legitimate child . my father had a mistress . many men do . shawn : oh , come on , man . this is a bunch of bull , sonny . he 's reaching . ca n't you see that ? carlos : no , i 'm not ! sonny : hey ! hey ! i want to hear it . carlos : my father never married my mother , but he gave me his last name . he did n't have a legitimate son to take over the business . he wanted me to do it , but my mother -- she did n't want -- she did n't want me to have any part of it . she did not want this for my life . shawn : sonny , look , he 's lying . carlos : i 'm not . you just do n't want to admit you missed something . my mother hid me away . she was afraid of my father 's enemies . shawn : so , why did n't lily tell her husband ? or did n't she know ? carlos : she knew . lily knew about me . she respected my mother 's wishes . she did n't tell anybody about me . shawn : [ chuckles ] that 's a convenient story . carlos : yeah , well , the truth often is . shawn : do n't believe this man . carlos : you loved my sister , yeah ? well , she died . her and her baby died because of you . you really gon na kill her only brother now ? tracy : the case was a slam dunk . how could the d.a . let him go ? luke : what do you expect ? the people elected baldwin . michael : well , actually , uh , he was found not guilty because there was no evidence . tracy : oh , michael , you know better than that . and you -- you 're a smart girl . tell him . a.j . killed connie because he was drunk , in a rage , and he wanted someone to blame . you -- you 're no angel , but at least you paid for your crime . michael : wait , i confessed because i killed claudia . a.j . does n't even remember what happened to connie . tracy : no . a.j . does n't have the character or the integrity to admit what he did and pay the consequences . michael : well , there was reasonable doubt . luke : michael , do you ever think that you might be defending the wrong person ? i mean , i 'm no fan of the so - called justice system , but i 'd be plenty pissed if i had to go to pentonville for saving a child from a psychopath while some guy who shot a defenseless woman walks free . tracy : there 's no justice . connie deserved better , and you know it . come on , luke . let 's go celebrate some place else . michael : you know , a.j . , do n't listen to them , okay ? this is -- this is a great day . you 're a free man , right ? a.j . : yeah . yeah . monica : listen , tracy has always been a poisonous shrew , but tonight , she 's actually -- she 's right . we should celebrate . i 'm gon na have cook two fix a wonderful meal , all of your favorites . kiki : yes ! cook two . everything is so delicious . michael : well , maybe we should give cook two the heads up , right ? kiki : yes ! yeah . we 'll do that . great . a.j . : you know , luke makes a good point . i mean , how can michael not resent me for this ? kiki : how are you feeling ? michael : i - i do n't care what we have for dinner . kiki : that 's not what i 'm talking about . how do you feel about what tracy said ? michael : i do n't know . i mean , everyone has a right to their own opinion . not everyone 's gon na be happy that a.j . was acquitted , and , uh , [ sighs ] especially my dad . shawn : i vetted that family . there 's nothing to suggest that this punk is lily 's brother . carlos : i told you . my mother hid me away . lily would never put me in danger by -- by telling the truth to anybody , especially you , sonny . everybody knew that you , as lily 's husband , were set to take over my father 's business . sonny : listen to me . for lily 's sake , i need to prove you wrong . we 're gon na keep you some place safe until we find that proof . if you 're lying , i will kill you myself ! get him out of here ! sam : however you and -- and bobbie and lucas want to handle this , just tell me . i 'll do whatever you want . carly : okay . great . thanks . yeah . sam : okay ? well , how did lucas take the news ? carly : that julian jerome is his biological father ? i do n't know , sam . my mom was really upset . i doubt she even called him . [ sighs ] sam : well , carly , did he -- i mean , has he asked about me ? do n't look at me like that . i am his sister . carlos : i 'm his sister . you know what ? thanks for the warning , but you really need to go . sam : are you throwing me out ? carly : i told you i was busy . sam : busy ? [ chuckling ] wait a minute . are you having some sort of a date tonight ? carly : hey , it 's nothing , all right ? i 'm busy . sam : it 's nothing ? you 're dressed up in a black dress and heels , and who -- who 's place is -- oh , no . carly . carly : hmm ? sam : is this franco 's place ? franco : [ grunting ] [ exclaims ] what -- ? [ chuckles ] thanks . [ sighs ] lucy : you know , franco may not be the son that you dreamed about , but he 's the only one you have . come on , pal . logan is gone . you have -- scott : lucy , i lost the case . lucy : what ? scott : the a.j . quartermaine murder trial . it was open and shut , and i blew it . lucy : oh , pal . i 'm -- i am so sorry . scott : okay . well , now you know , so trust me right now . i ca n't really deal with some lunatic that claims to be my son . i have got a career to mourn . lucy : hey , you won that election fair and square . well , you won . the point is they ca n't just recall you just 'cause you had one little , teeny tiny lost case . scott : my political career now has been neutered . that 's it . i lost laura . i 've lost my career . the only thing i have in this life now is ... lucy : is what ? scott : is you . sam : this romantic dinner -- this is for you and franco ? carly : this is none of your business , and if it is dinner for me and franco , so what ? carly : yes , i am . i 'm seeing him . sam : wow . you 're not even denying it . carly : what 's the point ? it 's all gon na come out anyway . so , yes , be the first to know that franco and i -- we 're just gon na see where it goes . sam : after everything he 's done to me ? carly : sam , he was sick . sam : sick ? ! carly : he was n't in control of his actions , and -- and i realize that you might not be able to accept that , okay ? i understand , just like i understand that people may have concerns . sam : yeah . people are gon na have a lot of concerns , and they 're gon na wonder what the hell you 're doing . forget about me . i mean , sonny -- i ca n't even imagine what sonny would think , but what about jason ? carly , what do you think jason would think about this ? carly : jason would think it was a terrible idea . but he would tell me that it 's my decision to make . and he would stand by me regardless . you know that . sam : no . i know that jason loved you and he would not want you dating a psychopath carly : franco 's not a psychopath , okay ? he 's not . sam , he 's changed , and i have seen it for myself . franco is not that man anymore . franco : you really should have stayed away from carly . [ sighs ] [ sighs ] [ vocalizing softly ] [ cell phone rings ] sonny : michael ? michael : hey , dad . sonny : what happened ? michael : you have n't heard but , um , the verdict came in . sonny : he 's convicted ? michael : no . no , he was n't . um , he was found not guilty . sonny : how ? michael : uh , there must have been reasonable doubt . i mean , diane said all along there was n't enough evidence . sonny : so , a.j . 's free ? michael : yeah , dad . look , i - i know how much you hate this , but a.j . was acquitted . i just really hope you 're not gon na try and take the law into your own hands . sonny : all right , michael . thanks for , uh , letting me know about this . michael : look , i love you , dad . sonny : i love you , too , buddy . [ sighs ] i do n't believe in justice . i -- i 'm not sure i ever did . but i promise you , lily , if this guy who says he 's your brother -- i promise i 'm not gon na kill him unless i know for sure he 's not . julian : i do n't know . the way that sam mentioned lucas -- it did n't sound like she was referring to luke spencer . it sounded as if it was ... family . ava : well , there 's a simple solution . just ask sam who she 's talking about . julian : oh , given the way things ended last night , sam wo n't be providing any answers . you know what ? does n't mean i ca n't find them myself . carly : i do n't need anyone to validate my relationship with franco . sam : ha ! did you -- did you just hear yourself ? you just called it a relationship . carly : i 'm not going to fight with you , sam . we 've been through too much . i accept that you think i 'm wrong . but it 's my decision , and it 's been made . sam : okay . i would say that i - i hope that you are making the right decision , but clearly , clearly , you are not . carly : [ sighs ] [ cell phone rings ] franco : oh . [ sighs ] hey . carly : finally you pick up ! what 's taking you so long ? scott : you should probably get home to your husband , kevin . lucy : i moved out . i 've been sleeping on the couch in my office . scott : oh , yeah ? lucy : oh , yeah . what convinced you of mr. quartermaine 's innocence ? nothing really . most of us thought he was guilty as sin , but there just was n't enough evidence . we did n't have enough to convict a guilty man . franco : yeah , well , the , uh -- the interview -- the interview went really great , you know ? it just took a long time . they kept bumping me up . i talked to , like , two supervisors . carly : that 's great ! well , hurry back , okay ? i have a surprise for you . [ clatters ] carly : what 's that ? franco : um , oh , it 's nothing . a surprise -- that sounds awesome . it 's got to be a good surprise , right ?

luke : it 's the truth . robert , believe me . i saw so much of myself in him -- the intuition , the rough - edge street smarts , the thirst for adventure -- robert : well , that sounds like a spencer to me . luke : it sounds like a scorpio ! he 's very much his father 's son ! robert : i think you 'd say anything right now to get me off this bloody bridge ! luke : i am not the one saying this . you do n't have to believe me . i got it from the only person who knows the truth -- ethan 's mother . [ door creaks ] holly : [ sighs ] i hope this means you 've changed your mind about staying out here . ethan : you know i love being in this house . it would help me feel close to cassandra , but -- all it did was remind me of how she died , how i could n't stop it . holly : this is why you have to leave wyndemere . ethan : you know , cassandra wanted us to leave together . right before the end , she wanted us to run away . i could have saved her . holly : let 's go to the hotel and have a drink -- or seven . ethan : i 'm not going to the hotel . i 'm gon na find helena , and i 'm going to kill her . maxie : honestly , robin , god -- you can be so selfish sometimes . maxie : oh , my god . matt : maxie ! hey . hey . what is it ? maxie : [ gasps ] robin . johnny : so , you want me to convince sonny to break up with you . connie : not with me . with kate . johnny : right , 'cause that makes perfect sense . connie : listen to me , johnny , kate is too weak when she 's around sonny . she wo n't leave him even to save her own life . the only way that she 'll accept this is if sonny breaks her heart . johnny : but sonny loves you . i mean -- connie : kate . johnny : kate . why would he break her heart ? well , johnny , you see , that 's where you come in . johnny : what , y - you want me to hurt sonny ? connie : well , not physically . johnny : then how ? johnny : well , let me give you a hint . carly : did you go after anthony last night ? sonny : i 'm not gon na get into this with you . carly : two people are dead , and one is a little girl . whoever shot out anthony 's tires is responsible . sonny : i really thought you knew me better than this . carly : with the way you were acting last night , you need to call alexis . you 're gon na need a lawyer . dante : i thought i 'd find you here . you , uh , waiting for news on jason ? sonny : he 's not awake . but the procedure went okay . dante : i got to take you down to the station for questioning . sonny : i already answered all the questions , dante . dante : well , i got more . todd : starr okay ? i know there was an accident , and i know that she 's been hurt , but i do n't know how badly . blair : how dare you show your face after what you did ? my contacts are so annoying . todd : i 'm glad that we got that out of the way . will you please tell me how starr is ? blair : no , you do n't get to ask that after what you 've done . todd : stop . i am her father . i have every right -- blair : you do n't have any rights . you gave those rights up when you killed your brother , todd . todd : do we have to talk about that right now ? blair : no , you know what ? actually , yeah , i think we do . i think we need to talk about how you shot victor , how you kidnapped tomás , how you held him hostage for weeks -- todd : i think my daughter is more important than your boyfriend 's feelings . blair : listen to me . you held him hostage for weeks while you let me cry on your stupid shoulder , like an idiot ! todd : you might feel like i owe you an apology . blair : what are you -- oh , god , you know what ? you 're totally insane . insane ! because of john had n't figured it all out , yeah , and found tomás , you 'd still be lying to me , you stupid son of a bitch ! todd : i never lied to you about how i feel about you , blair . blair : okay , todd , do n't . do n't do that . 'cause sleeping with you was the biggest mistake of my life . todd : oh stop ! stop ! okay , you 're upset . i get it . i understand . but do n't say that . you and i will love each other always . we both know that . maxie : [ crying ] matt : i know . i know how close you were to robin . maxie : yeah , close enough to take her for granted , to assume that she 'd always be there , she 'd forgive me no matter what . you know what the last words i ever said to her were ? i told her that she was selfish . matt : she knew that you did n't mean it . she knew . maxie : i wanted her to come with me to the party , to the metro , but i got all pissy 'cause she had to stay at the lab to work on some wonder drug to save jason 's life . i mean , what could be more selfish than that ? matt : you did n't know that that was gon na be the last time you were gon na see her , okay ? maxie : no one did . matt : do n't -- do n't do this to yourself . i wish i would have come here sooner . i should have . i should have . i do n't know . maxie : were you with patrick ? matt : yeah . yeah , i just -- i wanted to stop by and -- i did n't even see him , but i know that he 's doing his best to hold it together for emma . maxie : oh , god . poor emma . does she know ? matt : yeah . yeah , he told her this morning . i - i - i ca n't even imagine how that went . maxie : she probably does n't understand . i mean , how could she ? it does n't even make sense that robin is gone ! matt : this is nobody 's fault , okay ? this was just an accident . robert : we 're now considering holly to be a credible source ? luke : on a situational basis . robert : come on , she lied to you the first night you met just to get you into bed . luke : sleeping bag . robert : oh , park bench -- whatever . luke : whatever . it was a hell of a sweet camping trip . robert : and that 's what it takes with her . she 's a con , and that 's what it takes to get to you . luke : yeah , but this is n't a con . she has nothing to gain by telling me that ethan is your son . robert : but he 's not . luke : how do you know ? ! you have n't even met the kid ! robert : probably not likely to , either . luke : what , y - you 're not even a little bit curious ? robert : i have other plans , luke . luke : so you 're gon na turn your back on your son . robert : oh , let 's say for a second that she 's telling the truth . that means that she 's got an agenda . and that means you should watch your step . luke : all right . it 's true holly has a very complicated relationship with the truth , but this is not a con . she was n't lying . robert : were her lips moving ? luke : it is n't what she said . it 's what she showed me -- a paternity test . she can lie , but dna does n't ! holly : i know what it 's like to lose someone that you loved . it changes you . it hardens your heart in a way that never fully heals . ethan : i do n't care about healing . i care about making helena pay . holly : do n't let this anger consume you , because you 're walking right into helena 's hands . ethan : why would helena care about me ? you convinced her i 'm not luke 's . holly : i bought us a little time . but she 'll find out that it 's a lie soon enough , and then she 'll try and kill you again . she wo n't stop until she gets her revenge . ethan : then i 'll just have to get mine first . carly : oh , you 're here . usually when i give sonny advice , he does the exact opposite . alexis : sonny ? carly : he did n't call you ? alexis : i 'm here to see sam . jason is in there and she has n't left his side . carly : yeah , no kidding . alexis : how is he ? carly : he 's stable , which is more than i can say for their marriage . alexis : what are you talking about ? carly : sam has n't told jason that robin 's dead . alexis : he just had brain surgery . maybe she does n't want to upset him . carly : well , you know what ? she 's just about to find out how jason feels about being managed and controlled . alexis : well , why do n't you let sam handle that ? do n't you have your hands full with johnny ? carly : excuse me ? alexis : honestly , carly , you know how sonny feels about him . why would you get involved with him ? carly : how the hell is that any of your business . alexis : because i 'm his lawyer , and i 'm gon na have to deal with this now that you 've decided to incite a mob war by literally sleeping with the enemy . johnny : what was that ? connie : [ sighs ] i thought i was pretty clear , but if you 're confused , i can make it a little less subtle . johnny : no , no . so , that 's your plan -- to seduce me . connie : well , judging by that kiss , i do n't think it 's gon na be too hard . johnny : listen , kate -- connie : connie . connie falconeri . and , johnny , i guaran - damn - tee you sex with me will be hotter than it ever was cousin liv . johnny : you sure about that ? connie : yeah ! liv 's a sweet girl . she 's nurturing , mother type . me -- i do n't want kids , and i do n't give a damn about your feelings . johnny : what do you give a damn about ? connie : how sonny will feel when he sees kate knocking boots with his worst enemy . johnny : so you want to make him jealous . connie : oh , no , no . jealous would be he sees us holding hands together . i want him to burn . i want him so pissed off , that he kicks kate to the curb for good . johnny : okay , so you want him to catch you -- i mean ka -- whatever -- kate in bed with me . connie : yeah . or wherever , you know . the office , in the chair , up against the wall . you know , it 's your call . johnny : thanks a lot . connie : yeah . so , hey , johnny boy , what do you say ? are you in ? johnny : [ chuckles ] ugh , my sinus congestion , johnny : can we can we slow down just a -- connie : slow is boring . johnny : i just do n't think this is the best idea . connie : why ? you scared of sonny ? johnny : no . connie : then what 's the matter ? you 're not scared of me , are you ? johnny : no , not at all . i -- connie : oh , careful . johnny : maybe a little . i just think this idea 's a little crazy . connie : i 'm not crazy . johnny : but you said you are two different people . connie : i am two different people , johnny , but that ice bitch , she kept me down for too long . she was embarrassed of me . she hid me because she thought that i was too brooklyn . but you know what ? i 'm here now . and i 'm open , and i 'm free , and you can touch me if you do n't believe it . johnny : so , what is this ? you just -- you show up at my apartment , and you expect me to just fall into bed with you ? is that it ? connie : yeah . why not ? johnny , this is your golden ticket for revenge on sonny . you can make him suffer . come on , now . it 's not like you 're seeing someone or nothing . johnny : [ chuckles ] connie : huh ? dante : i need to know where you 've been in the last 24 hours . sonny : we 've been over this already . dante : a lot has changed since we talked last . sonny : changed how ? dante : can you just answer the question , please ? sonny : yeah , yeah . we 'll go over this again . [ sighs ] dante : after you got shot , you went to johnny 's . you accused him of being the one who pulled the trigger . sonny : yeah , and then you showed up , and you saw for yourself that i never fired the gun . we exchanged some harsh words . and -- then i left . dante : johnny implicated anthony . after you were treated at the hospital , you went to the quartermaines ' . that thing was there . harsh words were exchanged again , yeah ? sonny : yeah . words . nothing else . and then when i left -- anthony was alive . dante : where 'd you go ? sonny : [ sighs ] i went to the hospital to , you know , see jason , and i spent some time with sam . dante : can you give me the exact times ? sonny : no . dante : what happened after you left the hospital the second time ? where 'd you go ? sonny : went to see kate . dante : at her apartment ? sonny : in her office . dante : so you admit you were in kate howard 's office in the last 24 hours . sonny : is that a crime , dante ? is that a crime ? dante : well , you know what , sonny ? it just might be . i found this in her office . now , how do you suppose that got there ? ethan : i have to do this for cassandra . holly : what about the people who love you ? ethan : this has nothing to do with how i feel about you . holly : not just me . what about luke ? ethan : luke knows how i feel . all right , he 'd do the exact same thing in my place . holly : i never told him that i was pregnant . i deprived him of years of your life . and if i let you walk into helena 's trap , i 'll be depriving him of the rest of your life . i could never hurt him like that . ethan : you still love him , do n't you ? holly : his heart always belonged to laura , and it still does . ethan : does n't mean there 's not room in there for you . holly : ethan , he really -- he really loves you . luke could never forgive himself if anything happened to his son . luke : come on , man , i 'll show you the dna results -- both : whoa ! robert : she could have switched that and made it say whatever she wanted . luke : well , why would she do that ? just to hurt me and ethan ? she knows we 're growing close . robert : and there 's the problem . you are probably getting close . and she feels left out , so she 's gon na switch the attention back to herself . luke : oh , come on , now , you 're grasping . robert : i do n't have to grasp at anything . he 's not my kid . i mean , it 's -- it 's not possible . luke : what , you need a little refresher course in biology ? you were married to the woman when the boy was born . robert : i was on the road for most of that year on assignment . luke : and you never had any contact ? come on ! no fond farewell ? you do n't leave a woman like holly sutton for months at a time without an affectionate goodbye . robert : maybe once . but that does n't prove anything . luke : [ sighs ] robert , do you think i want this to be true ? ethan was the only kid that i did n't screw up . robert : lucky and lulu are n't screwed up . luke : my relationship with them is . too much conflict . too much absence on my part . too many difficulties . ethan was the only one that accepted me for who i am . robert : then you want -- whoa ! you do n't want to mess up a deal like that . luke : he 's yours . not mine . robert : all right . all right . let 's say i am the biological father . why does he need me when he 's already got you ? huh ? luke : because i ca n't save him . you can . johnny : i 'm just curious . is there some sort of , like , personality curfew ? do you have to be home by a certain time ? should i be expecting kate to pop out at any moment ? connie : not until i get what i came here for . johnny : i 'm not sure that would benefit either of us . connie : okay , johnny , let me walk it with you again . all right , i get to protect myself from kate 's stupidity . thank you . and you get to stick it to sonny for outing that nasty secret that your sister was your mother . yeah . yeah . i know about that one . johnny : and to make sonny pay , all i got to do is sleep with you . connie : well , thanks . you make it sound like a chore . believe me , it wo n't be . johnny : it does n't bother you that we barely even know each other ? connie : no ! it makes it more fun ! come on . i 'm looking forward to getting to know every little inch of you . johnny : [ chuckles ] and what if i am seeing somebody ? dante : this gun was found in your girlfriend 's office . it 's not much of a stretch to figure out how that got there . sonny : you do n't think you 're jumping to conclusions , dante ? dante : last night , you were waving around a 9-millimeter . sonny : yeah . dante : i ca n't swear in court that this is that gun , but it could very well be . sonny : it 's not . dante : ballistics ran a match from the slugs pulled from anthony 's car . this is the gun that caused the accident that killed a little girl and her father and put her mother in the hospital . blair : i do n't love you , todd . todd : okay , there 's conflict . blair : and i ca n't stand the sight of you . listen to me . todd : you 're conflicted . blair : i -- no . i 'm with tomás now , okay ? i love him . in fact , i was making a phone call to him just as you walked in . todd : really ? blair : yes , i was . todd : nothing says `` i love you `` more than a good voicemail . blair : okay , would you just leave , please ? ! please leave . god , if there was any justice in the world , you 'd be rotting in prison right now ! todd : the justice system is -- that 's who granted me bail . blair : you are gon na go to jail for killing your brother . todd : nobody liked victor . nobody . blair : téa is going to help nora get a conviction , and you 're gon na go to prison , todd , so you know what ? congratulations . that 's just great . you finally got your life back , and then you just wasted it . and what was the time frame ? was it , like , six months or something ? todd : something like that . blair : yeah . todd : but maybe not . blair : todd , everybody hates you . hates you . vicki , me , your kids -- and your sweet daughter , starr , she hates you the most after you what you did to her . you had her believing you . and what 'd you do ? you lied to her , and you -- you let her down . todd : i understand that starr 's probably upset at me . you 're upset . but i am her father , and i am not going anywhere until you tell me that she is okay . blair : physically -- she 's fine . todd : thank you . thank god . blair : but her life 's never gon na be the same . todd : why not ? blair : cole and hope -- are dead . luke : ethan dead . robert : well , she 's been wanting you dead for years , and here you are . luke : yeah , but that 's only because she 'd rather torture me than kill me . robert : well , you do that well . you handle her . luke : look , it 's getting worse . she 's becoming more and more unhinged . this young girl showed up who turns out to be a daughter nobody knew she had . robert : another cassadine . luke : yeah , her name is cassandra , or that 's what she called herself , and she tried to get ethan to fall in love with her . robert : did he ? luke : yeah , he fell hard and fast . robert : oh . helena teaches them well . luke : well , not well enough . because the girl also fell in love with him . robert : she would n't like that . luke : no , she did n't . she had one of her lackeys put a bullet in the girl 's heart right in front of ethan . robert : her own daughter ? wow . that 's cold , even for helena . luke : she got away , robert . she took ethan with her . robert : she 's kidnapped him ? luke : she 's got your son . you need to find him before it 's too late . maxie : you know , i 've read every single news report about the explosion in the lab , but -- you work there . i mean , you must know something that they 're not saying . matt : w - what kind of answers are you looking for ? maxie : how it happened , what caused the explosion . matt : what does it matter ? it was an accident . maxie : i still need to know ! matt : okay . okay . from what i 've been told , robin went back into the lab to get jason 's protocol . the door locked . the lab exploded . maxie : but a lab does n't just blow up . something had to have ignited . matt : it was a gas leak . maxie : a gas leak . matt : well , that 's what they think right now , but they wo n't know for sure until the investigation is concluded . maxie : oh , my god . matt : maxie -- what is it ? maxie : i 'm so sorry . [ gasps ] i 'm so sorry . i think robin 's death -- it 's -- it 's all my fault . it 's all my fault . connie : i do n't care if you 're with somebody . i 'm not looking for commitment . all i want is that one night for sonny to walk in and to see us together . [ chuckles ] can you imagine the look on his face ? all the hurt and the rage . he 'll be finished with kate . oh ! there 's no coming back from that . johnny : for anybody . connie : he 's so possessive and jealous , he will be finished with kate . we 'll be safe . and you 'll have hurt him as much as he hurt you . is n't that what you want ? johnny : yeah . connie : yeah ! that 's great ! johnny : this is a lot of -- of , uh -- stuff to process . connie : i understand . johnny : yeah . can i , uh -- how do i contact you ? connie : whoo ! johnny : does connie have her own phone line , or do i just call kate and hope that you pick up ? connie : ha - ha . johnny : [ chuckles ] connie : you know what , johnny ? i 'll give you a night to think about it . fair ? johnny : mm - hmm . connie : and me -- i 'll call you . johnny : [ exhales ] what the hell was that ? anthony : that was the opportunity of a lifetime ! ah - whoo ! this woman is offering you the chance to get sonny where he lives ! take it , john . take her ! sonny : you ca n't prove that that 's my gun . dante : you wanted to kill anthony last night . you went to the quartermaines ' , only you could n't do it there . you could n't shoot anthony in front of tracy , so you left . sonny : uh - huh . dante : he panicked . he ran . made it easy for you . you followed him . what was n't easy was shooting out his tires . you 're a pretty good shot . sonny : only so - so . there 's no way in hell i could take out two tires on a moving car with a 9-millimeter . dante : you can move mountains when you think you 're protecting your kids , and that 's what you thought you were doing last night when you shot out his tires . you had no idea there was a car in the oncoming lane . you had no idea you were gon na send a young father and his child to their deaths . it 's a terrible , terrible tragedy . but it was n't me . dante : what about kate ? does she own a gun ? sonny : leave kate out of this . dante : well , i ca n't , sonny . the gun was found in her office . that makes her a suspect . sonny : kate 's terrified of guns . dante : would you just answer the damn question ? sonny : to my knowledge , she does n't own a gun ! dante : i still got to get a witness statement from anthony zacchara , provided i can find him , if he 's alive . he 's been missing ever since the wreck . sonny : i 'm sure johnny 's not gon na shed any tears . dante : no , but you know who is , sonny ? the family of those people in that other car , the ones who were killed in the crossfire . todd : you 're telling me cole and hope are dead why ? you want me to leave them alone ? is that it ? you do n't want me tracking them down ? that 's cruel , even for you . blair : you know what ? you deserve that . but once again , it just proves that you do n't know me . because i 'm not that cruel . it was an accident . and cole and hope were trapped in the car , and they -- they both died . todd : uh -- little starr -- blair : i know . todd : did she see it happen ? blair : mnh - mnh . i , um -- she was -- she was unconscious , thank god . todd : starr got out of the car . cole and hope -- they did n't get out of the car . blair : she , uh , she tried to help them . there was a boy that -- that -- he showed up , and actually he was here with her . he brought her here to the hospital . he was here when -- when -- when i got here . todd : she had to hear it from a stranger . blair : mm . [ voice breaking ] and , um , i - i told her . i told her when she woke up , todd . oh , my god , you should have seen her face . it was horrible . she 's never gon na get over it . she 's never gon na get over it . she 's never gon na get over it . [ crying ] we 're never gon na get over it . oh , god . alexis : why did you ask sonny to call his attorney ? carly : someone shot out anthony zacchara 's tires . his car skidded into oncoming traffic , and a young man and his little girl were killed . alexis : oh , god . carly : and last night , sonny showed up at johnny 's apartment with a gun . he was trying to kill johnny . dante talked him down , but then johnny told sonny that it was anthony who tried to kill -- dante last september . and it was probably anthony who tried to kill sonny last night . alexis : do you have any idea where sonny is now ? carly : i have no idea . he was here earlier to check on jason , and now i do n't know where he is . alexis : well , i 'm sure the police are looking for him , so i 'm gon na go try to track him down . but i do want to see sam before . carly : she 's keeping guard , so she 'll be there . alexis : will you please not escalate this ? she 's under a lot of stress . carly : let me tell you something . i have known jason a hell of a lot longer than sam 's been married to him . he loved robin . and he would want to know that she 's dead . alexis : yeah . matt : listen -- listen , stop . stop ! you just lost somebody that you love . you had a fight with her before she passed away , so you 're feeling guilty . but that means nothing . you did nothing wrong . do you hear me ? okay ? all right ? listen , why do n't we get out of here -- maxie : i do n't want to leave ! i ca n't leave ! matt : kate will understand if you take some time off . maxie : i do n't need time off , matt ! i need robin back ! god . matt : if we just go home and you get some sleep , get some rest , you 'll be able to think about this -- maxie : every time i close my eyes , matt , i see robin trapped in the lab , desperate to get out and thinking about patrick and emma . matt : maxie , i understand that . maxie : i have a lot of work to do . matt : just please , will you listen -- will you listen to me ? maxie : i do n't need your help , okay ? you can help me by leaving ! just go ! just go . [ sighs ] matt : listen , okay , what i said about spinelli , asking you to have him move out -- maxie : he 's gone . matt : i just think that maybe he 's a good friend and -- maxie : no , you know what ? some things ca n't be undone , matt ! not ever . matt : [ sighs ] maxie : [ crying ] robert : you came . you saw . now -- go get your boy . luke : come on , robert . you and i both know i do n't have the connections or the expertise that you do . robert : look , i 'll give you a half a dozen names and their -- you know , in the history of mankind , you 've never said that i was ever any better at anything than you were . luke : well , i 'm desperate , all right ? robert : desperate enough to get me off this bridge ? look , mate , i am -- i 'm gone . i 'm done . luke : all right , if that 's the way you feel about it . there 's nothing i can do to stop you . be my guest . but could you please just wait before committing the final act -- to rescue your son ? because you may not have anything to live for , but he sure does . robert : if -- if you could n't find him , how am i supposed to ? luke : oh , my god . all those years in the field , you did n't learn anything ? come on ! use your bloody skills , man ! robert : it 's not gon na bring my daughter back . luke : all right . if that 's the way it 's gon na be . so you 're gon na -- fail your son the way you failed your daughter . last night was amazing . luke : what would robin say about that ? the fact that you have ignored someone in need just to wallow in your own pain and regret ? how does that honor her , robert ? robert : do n't tell me how to mourn my daughter ! luke : and what about your son ? ! what about him ? ! do you want to lose two kids in one week ? ! come on ! will that be your legacy ? `` he turned his back on his only son and took the coward 's way out . `` robert : it hurts , luke , just being in a world without my daughter , knowing -- knowing how she died , just imagining that pain . luke : i know , pal . robert : and at the end of it , i could n't save her . luke : but you can save your son . robert : [ sighs ] oh , spencer -- you are -- you are such a piece of work . using my -- that guilt like that on my -- luke : friend , look , all i 'm using -- is my knowledge that you would not turn your back on your only son to let him go into an early grave . holly : you are your father 's son , so you should know him better than anyone else . ethan : i do . holly : so you should know how he puts up a front , acts like he does n't give a damn about anything other than himself . ethan : i know he cares about his family . holly : he cares more deeply than anyone i 've ever met . imagine what would happen to him if he lost you . he 'd spend the rest of his life blaming himself for not saving you . ethan : who says i need to be saved ? holly : [ sighs ] luke did n't want to be saved either . he was always reckless , self - destructive . ethan : luke had a few bad turns , but he always bounces back . holly : it was because of you and lucky and lulu he always stopped himself from fully giving in to the darkness . you 're his purpose . you 're what brings him back every time . he needs you , ethan . do n't give him a reason for giving up now . dante : when i saw you lying on the ground , bleeding -- sonny : [ sniffles ] dante : -- i did n't want you to die , sonny . i do n't want you to die any more than i want you to be the one who put those bullets in anthony 's tires and killed those people . sonny : it 's not me . dante : look , a 9-millimeter was used to shoot out those tires , the same gun you were carrying around last night , the exact same gun that i found in kate 's office , where you said you 've been . i want to believe you , sonny . but you got to see the evidence is saying otherwise . sonny : you arresting me , son ? anthony : please do n't tell me you 're thinking about turning this connie down . johnny : that 's exactly what i 'm thinking . anthony : you have a chance to screw corinthos and a beautiful woman in the same night ! why would you pass on this ? johnny : because whoever that connie person is , she ai n't real . anthony : her legs looked pretty real to me . i liked her style . johnny : she 's losing her marbles . i do n't feel right taking advantage of that . anthony : the woman appears to know what she wants , john . why not help her ? and it could also be very beneficial for us . johnny : there is no `` us `` ! anthony : i meant you ! beneficial to you . what 's the hang - up , john ? johnny : i got my reasons . blair : todd , you need -- do n't touch me , please . do n't . i do n't -- i do n't want your comfort . i do n't -- i do n't want anything to do with you , all right ? todd : you do n't mean that . blair : starr and i will get through this alone -- without you . todd : i 'm gon na see her . blair : no , todd . todd : she needs help . blair : you know what ? i swear to god , if you go through that door right there , i 'm calling the cops . todd : you would call the police and turn me in because i want to see my daughter , who just lost her daughter ? blair : i 'm sure the llanview police department would love to know that you fled their jurisdiction . todd : i just want to see her . blair : well , then , that 's the last thing starr needs . todd : blair , i need to help her . blair : then leave , all right ? leave . okay . hey ! i 'm calling j - john ! give me -- todd : everything that i have in my life that is positive , everything that i have in my life that i love , i have because i 've loved you . our son , our daughter , our granddaughter . i am sorry for your loss , mrs. manning . i am never gon na stop trying to put us back together . [ cell phone rings ] alexis : sonny , where are you ? sonny : at the police station . i need your help . alexis : what happened ? sonny : my son just arrested me for murder . anthony : you know , at first , i thought this little dalliance with carly was about you trying to stick it to sonny . but now i 'm starting to wonder were you really sweet on her . johnny : it 's none of your business . anthony : john , we need each other right now . sonny 's out for blood . he shot the tires out from my car . i 'm lucky i 'm alive . and do i have to remind you how he publicly humiliated you at the party ? johnny : no , you do n't . anthony : then it 's time to strike back . look , i 'm sure that the sex with that firecracker carly is damn good , but it will never be as satisfying as sonny 's reaction when he finds you making sweet love to his darling girlfriend kate howard . john -- i know you want to do this . it 's too sweet an opportunity to pass up . maxie : sorry . i -- what are you wearing ? oh , right . you had that photo shoot with the up - and - coming designer . i think it 's safe to label this one as a miss . kate : yeah , that 's right . i was just trying something out . maxie : [ sniffles ] kate : you all right ? take another one . maxie : i 'm sorry . i - i know you hate it when we bring personal issues into the office . kate : that 's all right . that 's okay , maxie . i heard about robin . i 'm very sorry . why do n't you go home ? maxie : no , i have to get back to work . kate : no , it 's all right . i can take care of it , maxie . maxie : but -- kate : go home . go home . maxie : okay . ethan : i wo n't go chase after helena . holly : oh , thank god . ethan : at least until i have a real plan to take her down . holly : i 'll accept that for now ethan : [ sighs ] luke : what 's going on ? holly : it took some convincing , but at least for now , ethan has decided not to leave port charles . luke : i 'm sorry , english , but that 's exactly what he 's gon na do . holly : what ? luke : do n't unpack your duffel , dodge . i need you to do me a favor . i want you to disappear . | luke tries to talk robert scorpio down from a bridge . he tells him that holly said robert is ethan 's father and only robert can save ethan . he lies that helena has kidnapped ethan . ethan prepares to move out of wyndemere so he can find and kill helena . holly tries to talk him out of it . he agrees to wait until he has a plan . luke asks ethan to disappear . | <s>[INST] luke : it 's the truth . robert , believe me . i saw so much of myself in him -- the intuition , the rough - edge street smarts , the thirst for adventure -- robert : well , that sounds like a spencer to me . luke : it sounds like a scorpio ! he 's very much his father 's son ! robert : i think you 'd say anything right now to get me off this bloody bridge ! luke : i am not the one saying this . you do n't have to believe me . i got it from the only person who knows the truth -- ethan 's mother . [ door creaks ] holly : [ sighs ] i hope this means you 've changed your mind about staying out here . ethan : you know i love being in this house . it would help me feel close to cassandra , but -- all it did was remind me of how she died , how i could n't stop it . holly : this is why you have to leave wyndemere . ethan : you know , cassandra wanted us to leave together . right before the end , she wanted us to run away . i could have saved her . holly : let 's go to the hotel and have a drink -- or seven . ethan : i 'm not going to the hotel . i 'm gon na find helena , and i 'm going to kill her . maxie : honestly , robin , god -- you can be so selfish sometimes . maxie : oh , my god . matt : maxie ! hey . hey . what is it ? maxie : [ gasps ] robin . johnny : so , you want me to convince sonny to break up with you . connie : not with me . with kate . johnny : right , 'cause that makes perfect sense . connie : listen to me , johnny , kate is too weak when she 's around sonny . she wo n't leave him even to save her own life . the only way that she 'll accept this is if sonny breaks her heart . johnny : but sonny loves you . i mean -- connie : kate . johnny : kate . why would he break her heart ? well , johnny , you see , that 's where you come in . johnny : what , y - you want me to hurt sonny ? connie : well , not physically . johnny : then how ? johnny : well , let me give you a hint . carly : did you go after anthony last night ? sonny : i 'm not gon na get into this with you . carly : two people are dead , and one is a little girl . whoever shot out anthony 's tires is responsible . sonny : i really thought you knew me better than this . carly : with the way you were acting last night , you need to call alexis . you 're gon na need a lawyer . dante : i thought i 'd find you here . you , uh , waiting for news on jason ? sonny : he 's not awake . but the procedure went okay . dante : i got to take you down to the station for questioning . sonny : i already answered all the questions , dante . dante : well , i got more . todd : starr okay ? i know there was an accident , and i know that she 's been hurt , but i do n't know how badly . blair : how dare you show your face after what you did ? my contacts are so annoying . todd : i 'm glad that we got that out of the way . will you please tell me how starr is ? blair : no , you do n't get to ask that after what you 've done . todd : stop . i am her father . i have every right -- blair : you do n't have any rights . you gave those rights up when you killed your brother , todd . todd : do we have to talk about that right now ? blair : no , you know what ? actually , yeah , i think we do . i think we need to talk about how you shot victor , how you kidnapped tomás , how you held him hostage for weeks -- todd : i think my daughter is more important than your boyfriend 's feelings . blair : listen to me . you held him hostage for weeks while you let me cry on your stupid shoulder , like an idiot ! todd : you might feel like i owe you an apology . blair : what are you -- oh , god , you know what ? you 're totally insane . insane ! because of john had n't figured it all out , yeah , and found tomás , you 'd still be lying to me , you stupid son of a bitch ! todd : i never lied to you about how i feel about you , blair . blair : okay , todd , do n't . do n't do that . 'cause sleeping with you was the biggest mistake of my life . todd : oh stop ! stop ! okay , you 're upset . i get it . i understand . but do n't say that . you and i will love each other always . we both know that . maxie : [ crying ] matt : i know . i know how close you were to robin . maxie : yeah , close enough to take her for granted , to assume that she 'd always be there , she 'd forgive me no matter what . you know what the last words i ever said to her were ? i told her that she was selfish . matt : she knew that you did n't mean it . she knew . maxie : i wanted her to come with me to the party , to the metro , but i got all pissy 'cause she had to stay at the lab to work on some wonder drug to save jason 's life . i mean , what could be more selfish than that ? matt : you did n't know that that was gon na be the last time you were gon na see her , okay ? maxie : no one did . matt : do n't -- do n't do this to yourself . i wish i would have come here sooner . i should have . i should have . i do n't know . maxie : were you with patrick ? matt : yeah . yeah , i just -- i wanted to stop by and -- i did n't even see him , but i know that he 's doing his best to hold it together for emma . maxie : oh , god . poor emma . does she know ? matt : yeah . yeah , he told her this morning . i - i - i ca n't even imagine how that went . maxie : she probably does n't understand . i mean , how could she ? it does n't even make sense that robin is gone ! matt : this is nobody 's fault , okay ? this was just an accident . robert : we 're now considering holly to be a credible source ? luke : on a situational basis . robert : come on , she lied to you the first night you met just to get you into bed . luke : sleeping bag . robert : oh , park bench -- whatever . luke : whatever . it was a hell of a sweet camping trip . robert : and that 's what it takes with her . she 's a con , and that 's what it takes to get to you . luke : yeah , but this is n't a con . she has nothing to gain by telling me that ethan is your son . robert : but he 's not . luke : how do you know ? ! you have n't even met the kid ! robert : probably not likely to , either . luke : what , y - you 're not even a little bit curious ? robert : i have other plans , luke . luke : so you 're gon na turn your back on your son . robert : oh , let 's say for a second that she 's telling the truth . that means that she 's got an agenda . and that means you should watch your step . luke : all right . it 's true holly has a very complicated relationship with the truth , but this is not a con . she was n't lying . robert : were her lips moving ? luke : it is n't what she said . it 's what she showed me -- a paternity test . she can lie , but dna does n't ! holly : i know what it 's like to lose someone that you loved . it changes you . it hardens your heart in a way that never fully heals . ethan : i do n't care about healing . i care about making helena pay . holly : do n't let this anger consume you , because you 're walking right into helena 's hands . ethan : why would helena care about me ? you convinced her i 'm not luke 's . holly : i bought us a little time . but she 'll find out that it 's a lie soon enough , and then she 'll try and kill you again . she wo n't stop until she gets her revenge . ethan : then i 'll just have to get mine first . carly : oh , you 're here . usually when i give sonny advice , he does the exact opposite . alexis : sonny ? carly : he did n't call you ? alexis : i 'm here to see sam . jason is in there and she has n't left his side . carly : yeah , no kidding . alexis : how is he ? carly : he 's stable , which is more than i can say for their marriage . alexis : what are you talking about ? carly : sam has n't told jason that robin 's dead . alexis : he just had brain surgery . maybe she does n't want to upset him . carly : well , you know what ? she 's just about to find out how jason feels about being managed and controlled . alexis : well , why do n't you let sam handle that ? do n't you have your hands full with johnny ? carly : excuse me ? alexis : honestly , carly , you know how sonny feels about him . why would you get involved with him ? carly : how the hell is that any of your business . alexis : because i 'm his lawyer , and i 'm gon na have to deal with this now that you 've decided to incite a mob war by literally sleeping with the enemy . johnny : what was that ? connie : [ sighs ] i thought i was pretty clear , but if you 're confused , i can make it a little less subtle . johnny : no , no . so , that 's your plan -- to seduce me . connie : well , judging by that kiss , i do n't think it 's gon na be too hard . johnny : listen , kate -- connie : connie . connie falconeri . and , johnny , i guaran - damn - tee you sex with me will be hotter than it ever was cousin liv . johnny : you sure about that ? connie : yeah ! liv 's a sweet girl . she 's nurturing , mother type . me -- i do n't want kids , and i do n't give a damn about your feelings . johnny : what do you give a damn about ? connie : how sonny will feel when he sees kate knocking boots with his worst enemy . johnny : so you want to make him jealous . connie : oh , no , no . jealous would be he sees us holding hands together . i want him to burn . i want him so pissed off , that he kicks kate to the curb for good . johnny : okay , so you want him to catch you -- i mean ka -- whatever -- kate in bed with me . connie : yeah . or wherever , you know . the office , in the chair , up against the wall . you know , it 's your call . johnny : thanks a lot . connie : yeah . so , hey , johnny boy , what do you say ? are you in ? johnny : [ chuckles ] ugh , my sinus congestion , johnny : can we can we slow down just a -- connie : slow is boring . johnny : i just do n't think this is the best idea . connie : why ? you scared of sonny ? johnny : no . connie : then what 's the matter ? you 're not scared of me , are you ? johnny : no , not at all . i -- connie : oh , careful . johnny : maybe a little . i just think this idea 's a little crazy . connie : i 'm not crazy . johnny : but you said you are two different people . connie : i am two different people , johnny , but that ice bitch , she kept me down for too long . she was embarrassed of me . she hid me because she thought that i was too brooklyn . but you know what ? i 'm here now . and i 'm open , and i 'm free , and you can touch me if you do n't believe it . johnny : so , what is this ? you just -- you show up at my apartment , and you expect me to just fall into bed with you ? is that it ? connie : yeah . why not ? johnny , this is your golden ticket for revenge on sonny . you can make him suffer . come on , now . it 's not like you 're seeing someone or nothing . johnny : [ chuckles ] connie : huh ? dante : i need to know where you 've been in the last 24 hours . sonny : we 've been over this already . dante : a lot has changed since we talked last . sonny : changed how ? dante : can you just answer the question , please ? sonny : yeah , yeah . we 'll go over this again . [ sighs ] dante : after you got shot , you went to johnny 's . you accused him of being the one who pulled the trigger . sonny : yeah , and then you showed up , and you saw for yourself that i never fired the gun . we exchanged some harsh words . and -- then i left . dante : johnny implicated anthony . after you were treated at the hospital , you went to the quartermaines ' . that thing was there . harsh words were exchanged again , yeah ? sonny : yeah . words . nothing else . and then when i left -- anthony was alive . dante : where 'd you go ? sonny : [ sighs ] i went to the hospital to , you know , see jason , and i spent some time with sam . dante : can you give me the exact times ? sonny : no . dante : what happened after you left the hospital the second time ? where 'd you go ? sonny : went to see kate . dante : at her apartment ? sonny : in her office . dante : so you admit you were in kate howard 's office in the last 24 hours . sonny : is that a crime , dante ? is that a crime ? dante : well , you know what , sonny ? it just might be . i found this in her office . now , how do you suppose that got there ? ethan : i have to do this for cassandra . holly : what about the people who love you ? ethan : this has nothing to do with how i feel about you . holly : not just me . what about luke ? ethan : luke knows how i feel . all right , he 'd do the exact same thing in my place . holly : i never told him that i was pregnant . i deprived him of years of your life . and if i let you walk into helena 's trap , i 'll be depriving him of the rest of your life . i could never hurt him like that . ethan : you still love him , do n't you ? holly : his heart always belonged to laura , and it still does . ethan : does n't mean there 's not room in there for you . holly : ethan , he really -- he really loves you . luke could never forgive himself if anything happened to his son . luke : come on , man , i 'll show you the dna results -- both : whoa ! robert : she could have switched that and made it say whatever she wanted . luke : well , why would she do that ? just to hurt me and ethan ? she knows we 're growing close . robert : and there 's the problem . you are probably getting close . and she feels left out , so she 's gon na switch the attention back to herself . luke : oh , come on , now , you 're grasping . robert : i do n't have to grasp at anything . he 's not my kid . i mean , it 's -- it 's not possible . luke : what , you need a little refresher course in biology ? you were married to the woman when the boy was born . robert : i was on the road for most of that year on assignment . luke : and you never had any contact ? come on ! no fond farewell ? you do n't leave a woman like holly sutton for months at a time without an affectionate goodbye . robert : maybe once . but that does n't prove anything . luke : [ sighs ] robert , do you think i want this to be true ? ethan was the only kid that i did n't screw up . robert : lucky and lulu are n't screwed up . luke : my relationship with them is . too much conflict . too much absence on my part . too many difficulties . ethan was the only one that accepted me for who i am . robert : then you want -- whoa ! you do n't want to mess up a deal like that . luke : he 's yours . not mine . robert : all right . all right . let 's say i am the biological father . why does he need me when he 's already got you ? huh ? luke : because i ca n't save him . you can . johnny : i 'm just curious . is there some sort of , like , personality curfew ? do you have to be home by a certain time ? should i be expecting kate to pop out at any moment ? connie : not until i get what i came here for . johnny : i 'm not sure that would benefit either of us . connie : okay , johnny , let me walk it with you again . all right , i get to protect myself from kate 's stupidity . thank you . and you get to stick it to sonny for outing that nasty secret that your sister was your mother . yeah . yeah . i know about that one . johnny : and to make sonny pay , all i got to do is sleep with you . connie : well , thanks . you make it sound like a chore . believe me , it wo n't be . johnny : it does n't bother you that we barely even know each other ? connie : no ! it makes it more fun ! come on . i 'm looking forward to getting to know every little inch of you . johnny : [ chuckles ] and what if i am seeing somebody ? dante : this gun was found in your girlfriend 's office . it 's not much of a stretch to figure out how that got there . sonny : you do n't think you 're jumping to conclusions , dante ? dante : last night , you were waving around a 9-millimeter . sonny : yeah . dante : i ca n't swear in court that this is that gun , but it could very well be . sonny : it 's not . dante : ballistics ran a match from the slugs pulled from anthony 's car . this is the gun that caused the accident that killed a little girl and her father and put her mother in the hospital . blair : i do n't love you , todd . todd : okay , there 's conflict . blair : and i ca n't stand the sight of you . listen to me . todd : you 're conflicted . blair : i -- no . i 'm with tomás now , okay ? i love him . in fact , i was making a phone call to him just as you walked in . todd : really ? blair : yes , i was . todd : nothing says `` i love you `` more than a good voicemail . blair : okay , would you just leave , please ? ! please leave . god , if there was any justice in the world , you 'd be rotting in prison right now ! todd : the justice system is -- that 's who granted me bail . blair : you are gon na go to jail for killing your brother . todd : nobody liked victor . nobody . blair : téa is going to help nora get a conviction , and you 're gon na go to prison , todd , so you know what ? congratulations . that 's just great . you finally got your life back , and then you just wasted it . and what was the time frame ? was it , like , six months or something ? todd : something like that . blair : yeah . todd : but maybe not . blair : todd , everybody hates you . hates you . vicki , me , your kids -- and your sweet daughter , starr , she hates you the most after you what you did to her . you had her believing you . and what 'd you do ? you lied to her , and you -- you let her down . todd : i understand that starr 's probably upset at me . you 're upset . but i am her father , and i am not going anywhere until you tell me that she is okay . blair : physically -- she 's fine . todd : thank you . thank god . blair : but her life 's never gon na be the same . todd : why not ? blair : cole and hope -- are dead . luke : ethan dead . robert : well , she 's been wanting you dead for years , and here you are . luke : yeah , but that 's only because she 'd rather torture me than kill me . robert : well , you do that well . you handle her . luke : look , it 's getting worse . she 's becoming more and more unhinged . this young girl showed up who turns out to be a daughter nobody knew she had . robert : another cassadine . luke : yeah , her name is cassandra , or that 's what she called herself , and she tried to get ethan to fall in love with her . robert : did he ? luke : yeah , he fell hard and fast . robert : oh . helena teaches them well . luke : well , not well enough . because the girl also fell in love with him . robert : she would n't like that . luke : no , she did n't . she had one of her lackeys put a bullet in the girl 's heart right in front of ethan . robert : her own daughter ? wow . that 's cold , even for helena . luke : she got away , robert . she took ethan with her . robert : she 's kidnapped him ? luke : she 's got your son . you need to find him before it 's too late . maxie : you know , i 've read every single news report about the explosion in the lab , but -- you work there . i mean , you must know something that they 're not saying . matt : w - what kind of answers are you looking for ? maxie : how it happened , what caused the explosion . matt : what does it matter ? it was an accident . maxie : i still need to know ! matt : okay . okay . from what i 've been told , robin went back into the lab to get jason 's protocol . the door locked . the lab exploded . maxie : but a lab does n't just blow up . something had to have ignited . matt : it was a gas leak . maxie : a gas leak . matt : well , that 's what they think right now , but they wo n't know for sure until the investigation is concluded . maxie : oh , my god . matt : maxie -- what is it ? maxie : i 'm so sorry . [ gasps ] i 'm so sorry . i think robin 's death -- it 's -- it 's all my fault . it 's all my fault . connie : i do n't care if you 're with somebody . i 'm not looking for commitment . all i want is that one night for sonny to walk in and to see us together . [ chuckles ] can you imagine the look on his face ? all the hurt and the rage . he 'll be finished with kate . oh ! there 's no coming back from that . johnny : for anybody . connie : he 's so possessive and jealous , he will be finished with kate . we 'll be safe . and you 'll have hurt him as much as he hurt you . is n't that what you want ? johnny : yeah . connie : yeah ! that 's great ! johnny : this is a lot of -- of , uh -- stuff to process . connie : i understand . johnny : yeah . can i , uh -- how do i contact you ? connie : whoo ! johnny : does connie have her own phone line , or do i just call kate and hope that you pick up ? connie : ha - ha . johnny : [ chuckles ] connie : you know what , johnny ? i 'll give you a night to think about it . fair ? johnny : mm - hmm . connie : and me -- i 'll call you . johnny : [ exhales ] what the hell was that ? anthony : that was the opportunity of a lifetime ! ah - whoo ! this woman is offering you the chance to get sonny where he lives ! take it , john . take her ! sonny : you ca n't prove that that 's my gun . dante : you wanted to kill anthony last night . you went to the quartermaines ' , only you could n't do it there . you could n't shoot anthony in front of tracy , so you left . sonny : uh - huh . dante : he panicked . he ran . made it easy for you . you followed him . what was n't easy was shooting out his tires . you 're a pretty good shot . sonny : only so - so . there 's no way in hell i could take out two tires on a moving car with a 9-millimeter . dante : you can move mountains when you think you 're protecting your kids , and that 's what you thought you were doing last night when you shot out his tires . you had no idea there was a car in the oncoming lane . you had no idea you were gon na send a young father and his child to their deaths . it 's a terrible , terrible tragedy . but it was n't me . dante : what about kate ? does she own a gun ? sonny : leave kate out of this . dante : well , i ca n't , sonny . the gun was found in her office . that makes her a suspect . sonny : kate 's terrified of guns . dante : would you just answer the damn question ? sonny : to my knowledge , she does n't own a gun ! dante : i still got to get a witness statement from anthony zacchara , provided i can find him , if he 's alive . he 's been missing ever since the wreck . sonny : i 'm sure johnny 's not gon na shed any tears . dante : no , but you know who is , sonny ? the family of those people in that other car , the ones who were killed in the crossfire . todd : you 're telling me cole and hope are dead why ? you want me to leave them alone ? is that it ? you do n't want me tracking them down ? that 's cruel , even for you . blair : you know what ? you deserve that . but once again , it just proves that you do n't know me . because i 'm not that cruel . it was an accident . and cole and hope were trapped in the car , and they -- they both died . todd : uh -- little starr -- blair : i know . todd : did she see it happen ? blair : mnh - mnh . i , um -- she was -- she was unconscious , thank god . todd : starr got out of the car . cole and hope -- they did n't get out of the car . blair : she , uh , she tried to help them . there was a boy that -- that -- he showed up , and actually he was here with her . he brought her here to the hospital . he was here when -- when -- when i got here . todd : she had to hear it from a stranger . blair : mm . [ voice breaking ] and , um , i - i told her . i told her when she woke up , todd . oh , my god , you should have seen her face . it was horrible . she 's never gon na get over it . she 's never gon na get over it . she 's never gon na get over it . [ crying ] we 're never gon na get over it . oh , god . alexis : why did you ask sonny to call his attorney ? carly : someone shot out anthony zacchara 's tires . his car skidded into oncoming traffic , and a young man and his little girl were killed . alexis : oh , god . carly : and last night , sonny showed up at johnny 's apartment with a gun . he was trying to kill johnny . dante talked him down , but then johnny told sonny that it was anthony who tried to kill -- dante last september . and it was probably anthony who tried to kill sonny last night . alexis : do you have any idea where sonny is now ? carly : i have no idea . he was here earlier to check on jason , and now i do n't know where he is . alexis : well , i 'm sure the police are looking for him , so i 'm gon na go try to track him down . but i do want to see sam before . carly : she 's keeping guard , so she 'll be there . alexis : will you please not escalate this ? she 's under a lot of stress . carly : let me tell you something . i have known jason a hell of a lot longer than sam 's been married to him . he loved robin . and he would want to know that she 's dead . alexis : yeah . matt : listen -- listen , stop . stop ! you just lost somebody that you love . you had a fight with her before she passed away , so you 're feeling guilty . but that means nothing . you did nothing wrong . do you hear me ? okay ? all right ? listen , why do n't we get out of here -- maxie : i do n't want to leave ! i ca n't leave ! matt : kate will understand if you take some time off . maxie : i do n't need time off , matt ! i need robin back ! god . matt : if we just go home and you get some sleep , get some rest , you 'll be able to think about this -- maxie : every time i close my eyes , matt , i see robin trapped in the lab , desperate to get out and thinking about patrick and emma . matt : maxie , i understand that . maxie : i have a lot of work to do . matt : just please , will you listen -- will you listen to me ? maxie : i do n't need your help , okay ? you can help me by leaving ! just go ! just go . [ sighs ] matt : listen , okay , what i said about spinelli , asking you to have him move out -- maxie : he 's gone . matt : i just think that maybe he 's a good friend and -- maxie : no , you know what ? some things ca n't be undone , matt ! not ever . matt : [ sighs ] maxie : [ crying ] robert : you came . you saw . now -- go get your boy . luke : come on , robert . you and i both know i do n't have the connections or the expertise that you do . robert : look , i 'll give you a half a dozen names and their -- you know , in the history of mankind , you 've never said that i was ever any better at anything than you were . luke : well , i 'm desperate , all right ? robert : desperate enough to get me off this bridge ? look , mate , i am -- i 'm gone . i 'm done . luke : all right , if that 's the way you feel about it . there 's nothing i can do to stop you . be my guest . but could you please just wait before committing the final act -- to rescue your son ? because you may not have anything to live for , but he sure does . robert : if -- if you could n't find him , how am i supposed to ? luke : oh , my god . all those years in the field , you did n't learn anything ? come on ! use your bloody skills , man ! robert : it 's not gon na bring my daughter back . luke : all right . if that 's the way it 's gon na be . so you 're gon na -- fail your son the way you failed your daughter . last night was amazing . luke : what would robin say about that ? the fact that you have ignored someone in need just to wallow in your own pain and regret ? how does that honor her , robert ? robert : do n't tell me how to mourn my daughter ! luke : and what about your son ? ! what about him ? ! do you want to lose two kids in one week ? ! come on ! will that be your legacy ? `` he turned his back on his only son and took the coward 's way out . `` robert : it hurts , luke , just being in a world without my daughter , knowing -- knowing how she died , just imagining that pain . luke : i know , pal . robert : and at the end of it , i could n't save her . luke : but you can save your son . robert : [ sighs ] oh , spencer -- you are -- you are such a piece of work . using my -- that guilt like that on my -- luke : friend , look , all i 'm using -- is my knowledge that you would not turn your back on your only son to let him go into an early grave . holly : you are your father 's son , so you should know him better than anyone else . ethan : i do . holly : so you should know how he puts up a front , acts like he does n't give a damn about anything other than himself . ethan : i know he cares about his family . holly : he cares more deeply than anyone i 've ever met . imagine what would happen to him if he lost you . he 'd spend the rest of his life blaming himself for not saving you . ethan : who says i need to be saved ? holly : [ sighs ] luke did n't want to be saved either . he was always reckless , self - destructive . ethan : luke had a few bad turns , but he always bounces back . holly : it was because of you and lucky and lulu he always stopped himself from fully giving in to the darkness . you 're his purpose . you 're what brings him back every time . he needs you , ethan . do n't give him a reason for giving up now . dante : when i saw you lying on the ground , bleeding -- sonny : [ sniffles ] dante : -- i did n't want you to die , sonny . i do n't want you to die any more than i want you to be the one who put those bullets in anthony 's tires and killed those people . sonny : it 's not me . dante : look , a 9-millimeter was used to shoot out those tires , the same gun you were carrying around last night , the exact same gun that i found in kate 's office , where you said you 've been . i want to believe you , sonny . but you got to see the evidence is saying otherwise . sonny : you arresting me , son ? anthony : please do n't tell me you 're thinking about turning this connie down . johnny : that 's exactly what i 'm thinking . anthony : you have a chance to screw corinthos and a beautiful woman in the same night ! why would you pass on this ? johnny : because whoever that connie person is , she ai n't real . anthony : her legs looked pretty real to me . i liked her style . johnny : she 's losing her marbles . i do n't feel right taking advantage of that . anthony : the woman appears to know what she wants , john . why not help her ?

[ cell phone rings ] alexis : sonny , where are you ? sonny : at the police station . i need your help . alexis : what happened ? sonny : my son just arrested me for murder . anthony : you know , at first , i thought this little dalliance with carly was about you trying to stick it to sonny . but now i 'm starting to wonder were you really sweet on her . johnny : it 's none of your business . anthony : john , we need each other right now . sonny 's out for blood . he shot the tires out from my car . i 'm lucky i 'm alive . and do i have to remind you how he publicly humiliated you at the party ? johnny : no , you do n't . anthony : then it 's time to strike back . look , i 'm sure that the sex with that firecracker carly is damn good , but it will never be as satisfying as sonny 's reaction when he finds you making sweet love to his darling girlfriend kate howard . john -- i know you want to do this . it 's too sweet an opportunity to pass up . maxie : sorry . i -- what are you wearing ? oh , right . you had that photo shoot with the up - and - coming designer . i think it 's safe to label this one as a miss . kate : yeah , that 's right . i was just trying something out . maxie : [ sniffles ] kate : you all right ? take another one . maxie : i 'm sorry . i - i know you hate it when we bring personal issues into the office . kate : that 's all right . that 's okay , maxie . i heard about robin . i 'm very sorry . why do n't you go home ? maxie : no , i have to get back to work . kate : no , it 's all right . i can take care of it , maxie . maxie : but -- kate : go home . go home . maxie : okay . ethan : i wo n't go chase after helena . holly : oh , thank god . ethan : at least until i have a real plan to take her down . holly : i 'll accept that for now ethan : [ sighs ] luke : what 's going on ? holly : it took some convincing , but at least for now , ethan has decided not to leave port charles . luke : i 'm sorry , english , but that 's exactly what he 's gon na do . holly : what ? luke : do n't unpack your duffel , dodge . i need you to do me a favor . i want you to disappear .Summarize.[/INST]luke tries to talk robert scorpio down from a bridge . he tells him that holly said robert is ethan 's father and only robert can save ethan . he lies that helena has kidnapped ethan . ethan prepares to move out of wyndemere so he can find and kill helena . holly tries to talk him out of it . he agrees to wait until he has a plan . luke asks ethan to disappear .</s> | 955 |
[ brooke sighs ] brooke : the children get off to school okay ? taylor : yeah . brooke : would you like me to give you a ride anywhere ? well , if you 're thinking about opening your practice again , maybe now is a good time to go around and see if there 's any available office space . taylor : i had n't really decided when i 'd start seeing patients again . although there is some research i 'd like to do . i 'd like to figure out what kind of a woman sleeps with her husband 's brother the day after she thinks he 's died . brooke : i thought you said last night that you were n't going to get into that . taylor : i said that i felt comfortable with whatever decision ridge would make . that 's what i said . but it does n't mean i condone the things you 've done . you know , i 've studied all kinds of sexual disorders . but in all the time that i 've done that research , i 've never come across this particular pathology . i do n't know , maybe you could shed a little light on it for me . maybe you could tell me how it is , you know , thinking that your husband had just died , you can become aroused by his brother . brooke : i was n't aroused in the foundry . taylor : then what happened ? ridge seems to think that nick 's to blame . is he ? is nick some kind of deranged sexual predator who took advantage of you when you were most vulnerable ? brooke : no , no , nick is not deranged . taylor : well , that 's a relief , seeing how he 's about to marry your daughter . so if nick is not responsible for this , then who exactly would be ? i do n't know , could it be you ? brooke : no one is responsible , taylor . it 's not a matter of blame . taylor : this is what really disturbs me about you , brooke , okay ? no matter what has happened , no matter who gets hurt , no one is to blame , especially not you . the only problem with that kind of logic is that it leaves no reasonable explanation , okay ? i would really love to hear one . i would really love for you to tell me how -- how this whole thing happened . [ scene_break ] bridget : good morning .

[ doorbell rings ] luca : natalie , right ? natalie : yeah . summer 's not here , so go away . luca : not a problem , since i 've come to see you . adam 's filled me in on the security program -- pass key , i believe . i 'm here to monitor your progress . perhaps a quick demonstration ? natalie : uh , perhaps not . luca : you can trust me . we 're all on the same side here . summer : the hell we are . get out . phyllis : victoria , this is absolutely gorgeous . jack : you like that , huh ? i 'm stunned . victoria : i just like that it 's untraditional . is that even a word ? billy : it is now . jack : traditional or not , i could n't be happier for both of you . victoria : thank you . jack : and , victoria , i commend you , taking on marrying billy abbott yet again . phyllis : ohh . billy : easy . victoria : i actually think that he 's the one that deserves the medal , being my father 's son - in - law for the third time in a row . billy : see ? victoria : that 's a lot . billy : third time 's a charm . victoria : yeah . that 's right . phyllis : [ laughs ] congratulations to the both of you . you both deserve all of your dreams coming true . jack : hear , hear . billy : back atcha . lily : jack , thank god . have you seen my dad ? jack : no . why ? lily : he 's not answering his phone , and no one 's heard from him . jack : whoa , whoa , whoa . slow down . what happened ? phyllis : is this about the tumble that he took at the valentine 's party ? lily : no . no . that was nothing compared to this morning . he turned the press conference for dr. neville 's research project into a disaster . he was drunk . he was slurring his words . he even knocked over the microphone . victoria : oh , no . lily : as soon as the reporters left , devon fired him on the spot . jack : what ? lily : jack , i 'm scared that he 's gon na get hurt -- or worse . additional sponsorship provided by ... stitch : max has n't exactly been easy since he got here . abby : can you blame him ? stitch : the kid loses his mom , has to start over on the other side of the world -- new family , new school , new life . abby : now he 's gon na have a new little brother or sister , and that 's an adjustment under the best of circumstances . maybe we should wait to tell him . stitch : the sooner he hears it from us , the better . abby : not us . um ... you . and this is not because i 'm trying to avoid the conversation . it 's just , you know , max tolerates me on a good day . i think it would be better if you told him by yourself . stitch : you 're probably right . abby : exchange `` probably `` for `` always , `` and then you 'd be on to something . stitch : [ laughs ] hey , so you know , this is the last solo mission when it comes to this baby . abby : oh , do n't you worry . yes . for the next nine months , we are gon na be in this together -- the good , the fat , and the ugly . stitch : come on . you 're gon na be beautiful . and guess what -- we 're having a baby ! abby : we 're having a baby ! can you believe it ? [ laughs ] jack : your father looked me in the eye and swore he had not been drinking . lily : yeah . well , he 's good at that . his behavior has been beyond erratic . phyllis : for the record , no explanations needed . we can not stand here and judge your father . billy : amen to that . victoria : lily , i 'm so sorry . if there 's anything that we can do -- billy : yeah , if we can help you look for him or -- jack : no , no , no , no , no . you two are in celebratory mode . you stay there . lily and i should be able to find neil . victoria : well , i 'm sure that hilary and devon are searching for him , too . lily : oh , yeah . take time from congratulating themselves ? i did n't even tell them that he 's missing . jack : fortunately , i know most of neil 's haunts . i can check there . you check elsewhere , and we 'll stay in touch , all right ? lily : please , jack . we have to find him . jack : we will -- hopefully before neil does something else he regrets . billy : there goes the white knight of genoa city . victoria : must feel really good , huh , knowing that you have your life back together and jack wo n't have to be riding to your rescue again ? summer : i should have seen through it . luca : seen through what ? summer : `` poor lonely summer , all alone on valentine 's day . why do n't i pour her some cheap champagne and she 'll spill all the corporate secrets ? `` luca : okay . first of all , that champagne was not cheap , and second , is that what you really think happened ? summer : well , is n't it ? luca : no , summer . look , you 've got me all wrong , okay ? i thoroughly enjoyed your company the other night , and as for newman secrets , there are none -- at least not where natalie 's project is concerned . adam 's filled me in on everything . summer : oh , he has ? luca : yes . that 's why i 'm here . look , i 've studied spreadsheets and projections . i even have the latest passwords to access the program . summer : does he know what he 's talking about ? natalie : i hate to say it , but yeah . i guess adam really did let him in to the inner circle . luca : and thankfully , because i relish the opportunity to learn from a genius such as yourself . natalie : laying it on a little thick , are n't you ? luca : [ chuckles ] let 's get to work . [ sighs ] adam : you remember luca asking for a meeting even after finding out noah had left town ? victor : yeah . instead of emptying his desk , that arrogant bastard dug in his heels even further . adam : yeah . there 's a reason for that . [ telephone rings ] victor : yeah ? summer : grandpa , it 's me . victor : hi , sweetheart . summer : hi . um , i ca n't believe you let him get involved . victor : who ? summer : luca santori . he 's here with natalie right now . victor : that is n't possible . summer : yeah . he says adam brought him in on the internet - security thing . victor : sweetheart , you tell her to keep her mouth shut , okay ? no one -- no one hears about this . is that clear ? summer : he has passwords and everything , not to mention a whole briefcase full of information on pass key . should i still tell natalie -- victor : no , no . just -- just keep an eye on them . summer : grandpa , did -- did i do something wrong ? victor : no , sweetheart . you did nothing wrong . you did everything right , okay ? thank you . what hell have you unleashed on this family now ? victoria : hi . abby : hi . victoria : what 's wrong ? abby : uh , nothing . victoria : your message sounded really urgent . abby : because i , um -- i urgently need to tell you something . i 'm pregnant . [ laughs ] victoria : what ? abby : yeah . [ laughs ] yeah . there 's a little mini - me floating around in there , or a mini - ben -- tbd . victoria : oh , my god . abby -- abby : this is n't weird for you , is it , since it 's ben 's ? victoria : yes , it 's weird . how dare you start a family with your new husband ? no , it 's not weird ! it 's the best news i 've ever heard ! a baby ? ! oh , my goodness ! congratulations ! abby : thank you . victoria : uh - oh . pregnancy hormones are starting to kick in already , huh ? abby : no . it 's , um -- it 's everything . it 's hormones , happiness , husbands . victoria : oh , my gosh . ben must be so excited ! abby : yeah . yeah . he is . um ... but then we remembered that we have to tell his son , max , so he 's doing that right now . victoria : oh , i see . and you do n't know how he 's gon na take it ? abby : i 'm ... pretty sure i know . victoria : and that 's why you 're here and not there ? abby : yeah . we both thought it would be less of a blow if ben told him by himself . victoria : abby , come on ! this is great news ! everything 's gon na be okay . i 'm sure that max will be in shock at first , but , eventually , he 'll warm up to the idea . how could he not ? abby : yeah . victoria : yeah ! abby : yeah . you 're right . of course you 're right . yeah . victoria : i 'm right ! so ... what else ? abby : [ sighs ] just , um ... ben and i -- we just got married . what if it 's too soon for diaper changes and 4 : 00 a.m. feedings ? victoria : for you or for ben ? okay . how did ben react ? abby : i 've never seen him so thrilled . victoria : well , then , he 's ready , and so are you . and , more importantly , so am i. i 'm gon na be an aunt again ! abby : yay ! [ both laugh ] abby : what is this ? victoria : it 's a ring . abby : of the engagement variety ? victoria : yeah . billy asked me to marry him again , and i said yes . abby : oh , my gosh ! this is the best day ever ! we get to plan a baby shower and a bridal shower ! victoria : yeah . [ both laugh ] stitch : how are you liking your new school ? max : it 's fine . stitch : yeah ? you making any friends ? max : a couple . stitch : what are their names ? max : why ? stitch : just curious . max : you think i 'm making them up . stitch : no ! god , no . i just want to know you 're settling in okay . max : i 'm fine . stitch : your teachers are n't giving you too much homework , are they ? 'cause , you know , i can talk to them , you know . max : dad , i said i 'm fine . stitch : good . glad to hear it , 'cause genoa city is your home now ... and always will be . max : just say it . stitch : what ? max : whatever it is you brought me here to talk about . phyllis : congrats . what made you pull the trigger ? billy : [ chuckles ] delia . she , uh -- she came to visit me in my dream on valentine 's day morning . phyllis : her birthday . billy : yeah . she gave me the wake - up call i needed . [ chuckles ] let me ask you something . is this getting harder to keep jack in the dark ? phyllis : yeah . not only jack -- it 's summer . using my daughter this way -- it 's not right . billy : just say the word , and we stop , phyllis . phyllis : i just ... have to make sure the risk is worth it . this has to work . billy : the sooner , the better ? phyllis : yeah . 'cause if we do n't , victor 's gon na see right through it , and when you bring the king down , you only get one shot , and , like it or not , my daughter is our silver bullet . natalie : it 's still not operating the way it 's supposed to , and i do n't know why . luca : are you deliberately stalling ? natalie : because being on victor 's hit list is oh so appealing . i 've been working on this thing 24 - 7 , but between his unrealistic timetables and now you staring over my shoulder , the pressure 's a little intense . nobody treated einstein this way . luca : einstein did n't work for victor newman . come on . let 's go . natalie : where ? luca : i think it 's time you had a meeting with the man who writes the checks . maybe he can inspire you to explain what you 're doing -- or not doing . natalie : seriously ? luca : seriously . summer : here . do you want me to go with you ? natalie : thanks , but i know what i 'm doing . victor : this internet - security venture is not just an investment . it means the future of newman enterprises . adam : i know it 's the future of newman enterprises . why are you telling it to me like it 's news ? victor : then why the hell would you let the santoris in when we 're trying to get them the hell out ? ! adam : i did n't let him do anything . he blackmailed his way in . victor : how ? ! they have nothing to hold over our heads . adam : well , that 's what i thought . then i found out the truth . victor : about what ? ! adam : luca and noah are working together to take down a common enemy . victor : who ? adam : you . victor : i do n't believe it . luca must be lying . adam : yeah , no . that -- that 's what i thought , too . it 's his default position , right -- to lie ? so i reached out to noah . i told him what luca said , and i thought he would deny it . victor : but he did n't ? adam : no . no . he did n't . um ... victor : [ sighs ] adam : ... he 's pretty mad at you . he wanted you to pay for your sins . but , look , i mean , for what it 's worth , he , uh -- he swears he 's done with it . victor : that 's not worth a damn thing . my grandson is ready to stab me in the back for what ? to save that girl marisa 's honor ? adam : right , which is probably another thing i should mention to you . um ... noah 's not alone on that island . he took marisa with him . victor : well , then , maybe she turned him against me . adam : again , no . um ... she 's actually the one that convinced him to cut ties with luca , and he claims he did . victor : [ sighs ] well , well , well , well . adam : listen . uh ... he 's young , right ? he 's impressionable . he 's in love . all he wants is to ride off into the sunset with his girlfriend . that 's all . victor : [ breathes deeply ] my grandson ... [ sighs ] ready to stab me in the back ... after all i 've done for that boy . kept his secrets , kept him out of prison ... and now this . adam : well , he did n't go through with it , right ? he did n't do a damn thing , so -- so let him have his girlfriend , let him have his sunset , and you and i , dad -- we 're gon na focus on things that we can control , okay ? like scoring big on this internet - security deal , getting the santoris out of newman -- that kind of stuff . [ door opens ] luca : we need to talk . abby : do you think i should go with a traditional name , like emma or matthew ? or i could pick something unique , like -- oh , aspen . aspen is a good name , right ? victoria : uh , yeah , for a tree . yeah . would you slow down ? come on . you have nine months to come up with the perfect name . abby : what if i do n't ? what if the baby hates its name ? what if i 'm a terrible mom ? what if i scar my kid for life ? victoria : i do n't know . i guess that 's what psychiatrists are for . [ chuckles ] come on ! why do you think you would be anything less than a wonderful mother ? abby : because i 'm selfish and i 'm flighty -- a lot flighty -- and did i mention that i 'm selfish ? victoria : well , all of that will go out the window the minute that the baby is born , trust me -- in a very good way . you 'll see . come on . newman determination coupled with abbott heart and humor ? come on . you 've got this . abby : i hope so . victoria : i know so . abby : still , any advice would be much appreciated . victoria : unfortunately , the only trick to understanding parenthood is parenthood , and even then , it 's a crapshoot . abby : oh . excellent . victoria : okay . i do have a piece of advice for you . when you 're rocking your sweet little precious baby in your arms and looking down at that all - consuming soul , just ... do n't forget that you 're somebody 's wife . make sure that you show ben a lot of attention , okay ? even if all you want to do is sleep . abby : so , take care of my marriage is what you 're saying . victoria : mm - hmm . and by doing that , you 'll be taking care of your family . stitch : when two people love each other , when that love is so strong that they want it to grow and grow -- max : is this sex talk ? stitch : what ? max : 'cause you do n't have to . we learned all about it in health and hygiene . like you and abby the other day . stitch : yeah . well , uh , i 'm not actually , uh , talking about s -- max : sex ? stitch : [ chuckles ] right . i 'm talking about what happens as a result . god , could i sound any more like a doctor ? max : not really . stitch : [ sighs ] okay . here 's the deal . abby 's gon na have a baby . we just found out today , and we wanted you to be the first to know . now , this little boy or girl -- they 're gon na count on you to show them the ropes . think you can handle that ? max : sure . stitch : it 's gon na be pretty cool , right -- having a kid sister or brother to boss around ? max : yeah . really cool . stitch : well , i guess this is -- this is time for a toast . how 'bout some hot chocolate ? max : do n't forget the whipped cream . stitch : are you kidding me ? how could i ? all right . jack : neil ? ! is anybody -- lily : did you find him ? jack : no . i tried every bar i could think of and turned up nothing . [ cell phone rings ] lily : where could he be ? jack : can you try sofia ? maybe neil wanted to spend some time with moses . lily : uh , yeah . it 's worth a try . jack : okay . good . what ? lily : thank you . jack : hey , i would do anything for your father . lucky for me , it goes both ways . lily : i 'll call you with any updates . jack : yeah . i 'll do the same . went end liquor . hello . uh , i 'm supposed to pick up some liquor for neil winters today . is there any chance he had it delivered ? a whole case ? can you tell me where you had it sent ? no . that 's all i need . thanks . jack : oh , god . neil ? neil , can you hear me ? neil ! oh , god . i got a man passed out here . head is bleeding . possible alcohol overdose . get an ambulance here right away . the croydon hotel , out on delancy . right . room 39 . right away . hurry ! neil ? neil , can you hear me ? neil ! do n't you die on me . do n't you even think about it . victor : i happen to agree with you . we have a great deal to discuss . adam : tell you what -- natalie , why do n't you go check out our new it . facilities ? i would love to get your expert opinion on that . natalie : i 'll take notes . adam : all right . thank you , natalie . [ door closes ] victor : so , señor luca ... i hear you 've decided to insinuate yourself into natalie 's security project . luca : yeah . it was adam 's idea . victor : really ? luca : a new set of eyes . and from what i 've seen , i 'm not sure this alleged genius can be trusted . victor : and why is that ? luca : it 's just a feeling . i know when someone 's trying to pull a fast one . victor : [ chuckles ] you would know that , would n't you ? luca : you still do n't trust me ? well , i do n't blame you . but i hope , in time , i will earn that trust , victor . adam : you know what ? um ... get a word with you outside ? adam : do me a favor . do n't push it , okay ? luca : push what ? you did n't tell your father about our arrangement ? adam : no , i did n't tell him . i did n't want to break his heart -- tell him that his own grandson was out to get him . i did have to make up some kind of a story as to why i brought you on board . luca : joining forces with noah was shortsighted on my part . i want victor to know that i 'm on his team . adam : i think everybody knows whose team you 're on . summer : thanks for coming . phyllis : what 's wrong ? is it the new roommate ? it 's not working out , is it ? i know . i know . it 's a change for you , having someone live here . summer : no . it 's not that . it 's not that . she sticks to her room and her laptop . we barely get in each other 's way . phyllis : then what is it ? summer : [ sighs ] i do n't know . something 's off . phyllis : with natalie ? summer : yeah . i - i think i underestimated her . she 's not as innocent as everyone thinks . phyllis : okay . what makes you say that ? summer : well , luca santori was here . phyllis : really ? summer : yeah . i guess adam is having him oversee natalie 's project . phyllis : yeah . that is weird . summer : yeah , that 's what i thought , so i called grandpa just to double - check , and he seemed just as surprised as i was . phyllis : did he take luca off the job ? summer : no . he just told me i did the right thing , whatever that means . i do n't -- mom , it was so bizarre watching them work together . phyllis : because they 're having success ? summer : no . she kept messing up , and it kind of seemed like she was doing it on purpose . phyllis : for luca 's sake ? summer : i do n't know . i mean , if she can lie to luca , what 's to stop her from lying to grandpa ? phyllis : what 's your gut tell you ? summer : what do you mean ? phyllis : it is possible that natalie is conning everyone ? abby : so , your dad told you the news ? max : yeah . stitch : i did . we had a good talk . abby : yeah ? stitch : yeah . i think max is looking forward to being a big brother , are n't you , buddy ? abby : you 'd think i was climbing mount everest , would n't you ?

[ scene_break ] eli : that 's ross ' . blair : i know it 's ross ' , eli , but what 's he doing hiding it under a chair ? should n't he have put it someplace , maybe in a safe somewhere ? eli : i do n't know . i guess because there 's no kid living here now , he wants to keep it handy ? blair : okay , this gun gives me the willies . eli : yeah , me , too . blair : all right . we just need to get out of here . we 'll leave -- we 'll leave ross a message . we 'll write him a note . we 'll talk to him later , okay ? eli : i am just -- it 's killing me . i wanted -- blair : what ? eli : i wanted everything to be so magical for you . nothing is happening the way i wanted it to . i wanted everything to be perfect . blair : eli , listen to me . you are perfect for me . and i 'm gon na love you no matter where we say , `` i do , `` okay ? eli : well , you 're gon na have to , because it looks like paradise is off the menu . [ blair chuckles ] blair : thank you for being so flexible . you 've made this mama bear very grateful . eli : you know what ? i know how you can repay me . blair : well , i am gon na repay you for the rest of my life , but back in llanview , okay ? i ca n't wait for you to make an honest woman out of me . ross : well , well , well , what do we have here ? blair : hello , ross . ross : blair . dude . huh ? i see you two got in all right . blair : you knew that . you talked to eli last night on the phone . dude . ross : yeah , yeah , right . you know what ? i 'm a little fuzzy . last night , you know , me and a couple boys went out after the dive . come here , you . good to see you . blair : do n't even think about hugging me . last time , you practically broke my rib when you shoved a gun right here when you were trying to take dani . and do not try to recreate the episode . got it ? ross : yeah . blair , i 'm sorry about that . really . blair : yeah . ross : i am . look , i was -- i was upset about dani , you know , and -- and -- i could n't think straight and i did n't want to lose my daughter . blair : you mean todd 's daughter . ross : you know ... when i was told that dani was n't mine , it upset me . it was the hardest thing i 've ever had to go through . so how is she ? how 's -- how 's dani ? what ? what is it ? is she okay ? eli : dani is fine . blair : it 's -- it 's téa . she 's dying . [ scene_break ] greg : excuse me , what are you guys doing here ? todd : what does it look like ? we 're here to see téa . greg : shaun , why would you bring them to the hospice ? téa 's express wishes -- todd : too late now . we 're here , so just let us see her . greg : i 'm sorry , but that 's not gon na be possible . todd : why not ? [ scene_break ] layla : here 's the world map you asked for . john : give me a hand ? layla : mm - hmm . john : you know that .. that file that evangeline had . that was instrumental in proving that eli clarke was really bennett thompson . i think she would 've wanted to know that . layla : she would have . justice was important to her . it 's ... always what i wanted to get for her . you do n't know how many times i 've wished i could bring tate harmon back from the dead just so i could send him sailing off the roof one more time . john : it can eat you up , losing someone like that . layla : yeah , that 's probably how kelly feels right now . john : she wo n't have to any longer . layla : just make sure you get the bastard , john . john : i will . layla : mm - hmm . cristian : hey . layla : hey . cristian : listen , i heard the cops are looking for eli clarke . that he 's the bennett thompson evangeline had a file on . layla : it 's true . he knocked you out and stole the file . but you 're one of the lucky ones . he 's killed people ... including evangeline . [ scene_break ] kelly : rex , do you want blair 's death to be on your conscience ? because if you do n't help me -- rex : fine ! okay ? i will help you . mcbain 'll have my head , so will bo , but you got me . i will help you find blair and eli . maybe we should go somewhere else to talk . kelly : oh , no . we 're gon na stay in here because john thinks i 'm a blabbermouth . okay ? as long as we stay here , there 's no chance that anyone will hear what we 're saying . rex : suit yourself . all right , do you know any place that is significant to blair ? enough where she 'd want to get married there ? kelly : all of blair 's marriages have been here in llanview . rex : okay , maybe she wanted to try something new . she 's got resources to go anywhere . a chateau in france . a villa in monaco . a hut in timbuktu ? kelly : no . blair -- all she wanted was to finally walk down the aisle with mr . right . rex : what about eli ? has he ever mentioned a place special to him ? kelly : not to me . the only other places i know that he has been is , what , boston , where he probably killed that poor records clerk glen , and california , where he most likely killed my mother . rex : probably would n't consider those honeymoon destinations . kelly : who knows ? before supposedly never - been - married eli clarke was eli clarke , even before he was bennett thompson , you know , he had a wife that died of suspicious circumstances . rex : he did ? kelly : mm - hmm . and then when he was bennett thompson , he had a wife that vanished off the face of the earth . rex : so now he marries blair ... kelly : who knows nothing about wife number 1 or 2 . she refuses to believe that eli is dangerous . blair has no idea that she is in way over her head . [ scene_break ] ross : a brain tumor . i ... i ca n't believe it . eli : ross , i 'm -- i 'm so sorry . i know how much you care about téa . ross : what 's gon na happen to dani now ? what 's gon na happen to her without a mother ? blair : she 's living with her father -- todd -- and he 's taking good care of her . they had a rough start , but finally bonding . ross : last time i saw her , i sent dani back to -- to work on her relationship . i did n't know how important it 'd be . blair : yeah . well , another thing you might not know is that téa has asked me to be dani 's legal guardian in case anything ever happened to todd , and eli actually helped me put it down on paper . ross : not exactly the best circumstances for a wedding , but we 'll make the most of it . blair : you know ... téa 's condition has gotten worse , and i 'm really worried about dani and i wan na be there for her , so i 'm gon na go back to llanview . i 'm gon na go back to llanview now . ross : no . blair , i 'm sorry . you 're not going anywhere . blair : what do you mean , i ca n't go ? ross : well , imagine my surprise when my brother calls me and tells me you 're coming to tahiti to get married when i did n't even know you were close . eli : and i did n't even know you were still alive until recently , so i think we 're even . ross : i 'm not upset , bro . although i thought that , you know , we did have a -- a spark , you know ? i mean , you know , when i was trying to convince you to stay away from todd . and i 'm glad you finally did that . and i 'm even happier that the man you 're going to marry is my brother . huh ? which is why you ca n't go . uh - uh . not until you do what you came here to do , which is become mrs. elijah clarke . huh . [ scene_break ] cristian : okay , so just slow down for a bit . how could this eli clarke have killed evangeline if we were both there when she died ? layla : vange died because we took her off life support . my mother fought it . she wanted to keep my sister alive . cristian : yeah , but we all agreed she would n't want to live that way . layla : my mother only agreed after she called an attorney whose name she found in vange 's things . the attorney who drew up her living will . cristian : bennett thompson . layla : aka , eli clarke . cristian : so you do n't think that will was real ? layla : it was never filed , remember ? but bennett told my mom it represented vange 's wishes , without a doubt . he wanted my sister dead so she would n't tell anyone she knew who he was . cristian : yeah , but if that 's true ... layla : what he did was worse than killing her , cris . he made us do it for him . [ scene_break ] kelly : you know what ? if they wanted to get married quickly , they could have gone to maryland . rex : uh , maybe . yeah , but eli 's a serial killer who knows that we 're on to him . he 'd want to go further than that . kelly : maybe they went to las vegas , you know ? i mean , originally , that 's where they were going to get married . rex : yeah , and eli knows that 's the first place we 'd look . besides , it 'd be too easy for blair to call home and tell everybody where she is . kelly : okay ! then you know what ? you think of something . rex : kelly , i -- kelly : you are a p.i . you 're supposed to come up with ideas , instead of shooting all of mine down . rex : okay , yeah , but it 's a lot easier when i have at least one clue to follow . like when blair hired me to find eli 's brother , ross . i mean , i tracked that guy all the way to tahiti . kelly : do you think that that 's where eli took her ? i mean , that 's where his brother lived . rex : well , yeah , but why would he ? his brother 's dead . [ scene_break ] eli : i have been trying to convince blair to stay long enough for us to get married , but i understand how important it is to get back . blair : eli ... eli : her family comes first . man : good morning . the door was open . eli : oh , hey . you must be ... man : i am the conciliar municipal . sorry i 'm late . i got a bit lost coming up here . but i 'm ready to perform the wedding if the couple is ready to get married . eli : what do you say , blair ? he 's here . can we stay long enough to make this legal ? blair : oh , eli , we got the judge . you have your witness . the bride , groom . okay , let 's get married . eli : you have made me the happiest man on earth . blair : let me just get into my pretty dress . ross : congratulations . you 're really going to do it . [ scene_break ] destiny : i 'm glad my brother could come through for dani . i just wish my other brother could help her mom like he helped shaun . he brought him back to life . nate : wait . so this dr. evans dani 's been talking about -- that 's your brother ? destiny : yeah . he 's a genius . we got it like that . nate : wait . what ? he 's this famous brain surgeon , you 're stuck working here ? destiny : we do n't take money from greg . nate : no , i did n't mean that , i just mean -- i do n't know -- does your whole family have it like that ? destiny : no , greg 's the big success , our star . the rest of my family 's pretty much blue collar . darren : complete opposite of my folks . they 're all super white collar . except for my brother , theodore . you know , my mom actually cried when he said he wanted to be a cop . nate : whoa . what 's wrong with being a cop ? darren : nothing , i guess . i mean , if you do n't mind being broke . [ nate sighs ] darren : i 'm proud of my brother . you know , he followed his heart . like i followed mine . destiny : keep talking . darren : i just prefer the country club life , you know ? valet , concierge , v.i.p . all the way , baby . that 's how i want to live . make a ton of money , keep my lady in style . destiny : what lady are you talking about ? darren : the woman in my heart -- you . destiny : i 've got news for you . i do n't need to be kept or spoiled or anything that players think girls want . darren : if i 'm a player , then you 're my violin . destiny : you need to quit while you 're not even close . nate : so , what ? you want to work here for the rest of your life ? destiny : who said i want to work here for the rest of my life ? nate : no , i just mean , you know ... destiny : look , i do n't know about you , but i plan on being successful in my own right . just like my two brothers . nate : well , you 're way ahead of me . i 've got two brothers i do n't even know , and country club life is not even on my radar . not when i have no clue where my mom and i are going to be living next week . darren : that 's a bummer . nate : yeah , well , it 's nothing compared to what dani is going through . destiny : you really care about her , do n't you ? nate : more than i ever thought was possible . [ scene_break ] dani : no , no , please , you need to let us see her . you know , i know that my mom said that she does n't want us here , but -- shaun : this is on me . i brought them here because in good conscience , i could n't keep a kid from her mother . greg : that 's not the point , shaun ! todd : you can all stand out here and talk about who did what , but you 're not going to keep her from seeing my wife . greg : look , you do n't understand ... todd : no , no , no . evans , you do n't understand . you ca n't keep me from seeing téa . [ greg sighs ] todd : period . what room is she in ? shaun : this one . greg : wait a minute , okay ? just hold on . todd , todd ! do n't go in , please ! shaun : let him go . let him go . [ scene_break ] cristian : look , if -- if eli has done half the things john says he 's done , then -- then you 're probably right . he probably did manipulate the situation . but eli did n't put evangeline in that coma . look , i believe with all my heart that , you know , we were honoring what evangeline would have wanted . layla : i know she would n't have wanted to live that way . it just kills me that she 's gone , cris . cristian : i know . layla : it makes me so angry that someone can use the condition of a dying woman to suit their own evil needs . [ scene_break ] eli : thanks , ross . thanks for everything . ross : what are brothers for ? eli : wow . you look amazing . [ scene_break ] kelly : ross was dead , but maybe there 's a mistake . rex : he did have a house . kelly : do you think that maybe there was an inheritance of some sort that eli was going to ? rex : well , anything 's possible . and if eli wanted to get blair as far from llanview as he could , tahiti pretty much fits the bill . kelly : it 's a good theory , but i think you 're going to have to dig it up . rex : what i 'm going to do is tell this to john mcbain . kelly : rex , you might be wrong . officer price : hi . kelly : hey . excuse me , sir . rex : pardon us . officer price : i do n't even want to know . [ scene_break ] darren : hey , what 's up with these clouds ? nate : today 's forecast , cloudy with a chance of showers until mid afternoon . darren : i was hoping to soak up some sun . what am i going to do now ? destiny : well , find some other way to occupy your time . nate : when all else fails , there 's always racquetball . darren : not my thing . nate : tsk . darren : so , are you going to kiss me good - bye , or do i have to lie to my diary ? destiny : you know i 'm at work , right ? darren : you know , i lied twice in my entire life to my diary . nate : dude , you are almost cracking me up . darren : i aim to please . well ? nate : so , he 's kind of hilarious . destiny : and you 're maybe not the jackass i thought you were when you stole dani from matthew . nate : well , do n't hold back or anything . destiny : hey , you always know where you stand with me . nate : so , even if matthew still hates my guts -- destiny : look , matthew is my good friend and all and i 'll always have his back , but where other people are concerned , i make up my own mind . nate : and so far ? destiny : you 're not so bad . i mean , you 've really been there for dani through all this . nate : yeah . i think she 's going to need me more than ever when she gets home .

dante : that is the problem ? she 's so impulsive with her decision - making , i do n't think she thinks about the consequences of anything unless it has something to do with what outfit she 's gon na wear . lulu : mm . yeah , but we did have a very extensive conversation about surrogacy , and we even ... talked about the possibility of stretch marks , which she tripped over and still decided she wanted to go through with it . dante : okay . well , so maybe maxie 's not completely off the table . but let 's -- you know , we got one more applicant . let 's not make any snap decisions just because the others have been -- lulu : disastrous . dante : let 's see what this one has to say . who knows ? maybe the perfect surrogate is still out there . sonny : i do n't understand . how did somebody who 's bound and gagged manage to give you a black eye ? dr. chriton : i tried hypnotizing her to coax kate into emerging . that 's when she head - butted me . connie : [ shouting ] sonny : no sign of kate ?

she was a.j . 's willing accomplice . skye : i had nothing to do with a.j . kidnapping michael . carly : before that , she slept her way across the eastern seaboard , leeching off one rich family after another . skye : like that 's not something you would never even remotely do . carly : save the crocodile tears , okay ? you did n't lose edward . he was never yours to lose . skye : i 'm gon na let this one go . carly : really ? you 're gon na take the high road ? you should get a map . skye : maybe i 'll drop you a line , and maybe you can tell me then what you 've learned about loss . carly : what the hell is that supposed to mean ? skye : well , by that time , michael will have taken his place by a.j . , right where he belongs . and you will be utterly and completely forsaken . michael : should n't you be focused on your defense ? a.j . : yeah , well , you know , diane 's handling all that . she said if i just do what i 'm told and stay out of the way , she 'll do everything else . michael : well , that sounds like diane . a.j . : yeah . you know , i think right now , elq is my best distraction . the only problem is , tracy 's the c.e.o . , and she 's never gon na let me back in the company . michael : well , not unless she gets voted out . a.j . : [ chuckles ] now you 're thinking like a quartermaine . that 's exactly what skye said . okay , here 's what we 're doing . we were actually crunching the numbers to see if i could get enough support -- actually a majority of the shareholders -- to side with me . michael : and how did it fall out ? a.j . : that depends on you . lulu : why do you want to be a surrogate ? woman : okay . well , uh ... i have two kids of my own , and i love it , so i figured , why not help people who want to have a family of their own but are having trouble getting one started ? lulu : and your husband is okay with this ? woman : he supports it . to be perfectly honest with you , he 's out of work , and we could use the money . and , as it turns out , i 'm one of those women who loved being pregnant . doing it again seems like a pretty good way to spend nine months while providing for my family at the same time . ellie : so , now that your secret marriage has been uncovered , i have to ask ... what 's your game ? spinelli : ellie , there is no game . ellie : so you deny that you 're luring me into your bed of lies , your extratraditional family ? spinelli : i 'm sorry . `` extra `` what ? ellie : i 'm sorry . but i do n't have it in me to be anybody 's sister wife . maybe it works for hipsters or hollywood actors or -- maxie : no , no , no ! i do n't want a sister wife . spinelli : i do n't have a sister nor a wife in the first place ! ellie : well , what about her ? so you two are n't married ? spinelli : nor have we ever been . ellie : okay . well , then , how do you explain this ? connie : sonny corinthos has me in here ! please ! sonny : i 'm sorry . did you say something ? connie : you ca n't do this to me . sonny : i already did . connie : you can not kidnap me and tie me up here , sonny ! sonny : says who ? you ? connie : this is n't gon na work ! you know i have a life . sonny : uh - huh . you have kate 's life , the one you stole from her while she was traumatized . connie : if kate wanted her life , she 'd be living it . do you see her here ? ! sonny : not yet . connie : look , you hold me in here , the more trouble you 're gon na get in . i have people who care about me . sonny : name one . name one ! connie : my husband ! he 's gon na come looking for me . sonny : funny thing about johnny . i had my people on him while you took your little vacation . he did n't have a care in the world . connie : he 's not the only one . sonny : and your boss , manning , he packed up all your stuff the day you left . let 's check your phone . is it in your purse ? huh ? whoa ! let 's see . let 's see what we got . okay . there it is . hmm . no missed calls , no voicemail , no texts . it almost seems to me ... like people are happy to get rid of you . why would that be ? todd : well , you 've made your loyalties clear . you can leave . starr : dad , i talked to mom ... about your first wedding , and ... she said that she loved you . and when you danced and you showered her with golden balloons , that it was the perfect moment . todd : she said that ? just that ? she said it was perfect ? how can she marry another guy ? starr : because he makes her happy now . todd : she 's lying . she 's a liar . she 's lying to herself , she 's lying to you -- i hope you know that -- she 's lying to you . starr : dad , you ca n't make me choose sides . todd : i think you already have . starr : okay , i realize that you 're in a very bad mood right now , but i have -- todd : hell of a day for you to master the art of the understatement . starr : i have something that can make it better . todd : what ? starr : turn around and meet molly . molly , my dad . todd : you 're molly ? you 're gon na make it all better ? what 're you gon na do ? do you make balloon animals ? do you juggle ? entertain me . nothing ? useless . elev 's over there . i 'm sure you can figure it out after that . starr : molly wrote a book . todd : oh , goodie for molly . snooki wrote a book . snooki wrote three . starr : well , molly wrote a good book -- a very , very great book , actually . todd : terrific . what does that have to do with me ? starr : did n't you acquire a publishing house when you expanded your empire ? todd : no , starr . i acquired two publishing houses . starr : you should invest in this . you will make a mint . i 'm telling you , i could n't put the novel down , it was so good . todd : okay . i trust your taste . you got great taste in everything but boys . i will give that manuscript a look - see , provided you do one thing in return . starr : name it . todd : boycott your mother 's wedding . a.j . : i ca n't get rid of tracy unless i get a majority of the shareholders behind me . right now , as it stands , she 's got 41 % , assuming that alice and maya throw their weight behind her . michael : yeah , probably . a.j . : okay , with mom and skye , i 've got 35 % . now , you join the cause , well , hey , suddenly , we 've got ourselves a tie . and that means that sam has the deciding vote . michael : so you 're asking me to help remove tracy from elq . a.j . : look , i do n't want to cut her out completely . i just want to remove her as the c.e.o . michael : has she done that bad of a job ? a.j . : well , elq has certainly done better . michael : and you think you could fix it . a.j . : michael , i know elq like the back of my hand . before ned opted out for his little music career , i was the one being groomed to take over the company . ' course , i think we all know how that ended up . michael : yeah , did n't you embezzle like half of elq 's operating budget ? a.j . : yes , which is another reason why grandfather was ashamed of me . but he got most of the money back . it was confiscated and was returned after my so- called death . michael : still , i can see why the shareholders would have a hard time trusting you . michael : yeah , i get it , and that 's why i came back -- to make amends . michael , i 'll do whatever i have to to uphold the quartermaine legacy . it 's too late for me to make grandfather proud , but i really believe that i can make the family proud , and i could use your help . michael : [ scoffs ] i do n't know . tracy 's been pretty decent to me . we kind of get along . at least , we did . a.j . : okay . what changed ? michael : you coming back , and then she went on this mission to throw you in prison . a.j . : so that means you 'll consider it . skye : must be terrible , carly , really , knowing that michael is n't that impressionable young boy he once was . carly : do n't talk about my kid . michael knows who his parents are . he knows we love him , and he loves us . skye : well , give it time . you and sonny ca n't keep him walled up anymore . you ca n't lie and scam your way out of it this time . carly : i do n't need to lie . michael remembers everything . he remembers being kidnapped and being lied to . he remembers seeing a.j . almost kill jason . skye : oh . that 's it ! of course ! jason is n't here anymore . he 's not here to save you and clean up your messes . well , finally , michael 's gon na get to know who his father really is , and he 'll get to know his mother for what she really is -- the slut of port charles ! maxie : that is mine . um , what were you doing in my room ? ellie : i was innocently looking for the hairbrush i lent you when this caught my eye -- a portrait of you and my erstwhile boyfriend in nuptial regalia . anybody ? spinelli : ellie , you deserve to know that maxie and i were once betrothed . ellie : betrothed ? maxie : that means engaged . ellie : no , i know what it means . spinelli : but maxie was n't ready . so we ... we called it off , and we had a -- a non - wedding . ellie : okay , define `` non - wedding . `` spinelli : no vows were made , no commitments . we basically just skipped to the after party , and now -- now we 're just friends . ellie : but you intended to we d and spend the rest of your lives in tax- deductible connubial bliss . so how did you go from that to non - marriage to just friends ? woman : this is a nice place . if this works out , i 'm glad the baby will be well - provided for . lulu : actually , i 'm just part owner here . woman : oh . still , you 're certainly doing better than my husband and i , given how much surrogacy costs . lulu : yes , it is expensive . dante : well , my father was generous enough to help us out . woman : that 's nice . what i would n't give to have a fairy godfather . dante : it 's not quite like that , though . lulu : um , you know , we 're good for it . it 'll all be stipulated in a contract . we 'll cover any costs related to pregnancy . woman : would that include my rent ? i do n't want to sound selfish , but having a baby , there 's a lot of overhead -- groceries , medicine -- and it may not always seem like it , but it 's all for the benefit of the baby . you do want a healthy , stress - free surrogate , right ? lulu : yeah , we can just work that out in the details . woman : i hope so . you 're a lovely couple . i 'd much rather help you out than the others . dante : uh , sorry . others ? woman : i thought i told you . there 's another couple . lulu : you 're talking to another couple ? woman : it 's just talk . obviously , there has n't been a commitment . but in the interest of full disclosure , i should tell you , they 're offering a very generous package . lulu : [ chuckles ] uh ... well , people who ca n't carry their own child will go to great lengths to get one , but we do n't want to buy a baby . woman : what else would you call it ? a.j . : son , elq is your birthright . now , i understand that maybe you 're nervous , but i could teach you , if you 'll let me . michael : i ... i got school and stuff . i have no time to learn the ropes at elq . a.j . : so you 're saying that really this is just a question of having enough time . michael : yeah . a.j . : or maybe it 's something else . michael : like what ? a.j . : that night , in lockup , when you refused to leave my side , i felt like you and i were really connecting , and i got to tell you , now i feel like you 're pulling away . michael : i 'm just being cautious . a.j . : you sure sonny has n't gotten to you ? sonny : why are you with johnny ? do n't you want a real man ? connie : why do n't you show me one . i 'll let you know . sonny : i mean , he 's weak . i did n't know vulnerability turned you on so much . you know what i mean ? connie : you got a point there , sonny . i do like a strong man . which reminds me , where 's milo , huh ? that guy 's built like a brick house . he 's a great kisser , to boot . why is n't he on guard duty ? [ gasps ] are you afraid we wo n't be able to resist each other ? sonny : i 'm not worried about milo . connie : you should be . youth , vigor ... i 'd take him over you any day . or the plumber or the garbage man or the extermina -- sonny : what is your problem with me ? why do you hate me so much ? molly : um , you know -- starr : i 'm not boycotting mom 's wedding ! todd : fine . then go back to llanview , and take your young - adult novel with you , and ask your new stepfather to publish it for you . oh , that 's right . he ca n't publish it for you . he 's not a publisher . he kills people , and he does it for money . starr : you know what ? that actually sounds like a great idea . i 'm sure between mom and tomás , they know someone in publishing that would love to read your novel . molly : really ? starr : yes , really . molly , any editor would be intrigued , not only by the story line in your novel but by your personal history , as well . you are the daughter of a cassadine ... and the sister to the notorious sam morgan , who was in a very public kidnapping . todd : excuse me ? starr : oh , i 'm sorry . you did n't know that molly is sam morgan 's sister ? todd : so what ? starr : imagine all the publicity angles . after everything that her family has been through , do n't you think it would be nice if something good would happen -- todd : she got the baby back . is n't that enough ? starr : no ! that does n't make up for all of the months that molly and her family did n't get to spend with her nephew , right ? so maybe publishing molly 's novel would make things a little bit more right . todd : you were such a sweet little girl . what happened ? starr : i 'm my father 's daughter . todd : fine . give me the damn book . starr : pleasure doing business with you . molly : what just happened ? max : no , hey , hey ! shawn : you 're grown women ! skye : she hit me first ! carly : oh , you 're insane ! skye : oh ! look what you did ! do you know how long i waited in line for this version ? ! carly : i 'm sure there 's some geek somewhere that 'll sleep with you if you want another one . skye : i swear , if you broke this , i 'll -- [ gasps ] carly : oh , my god . skye : lorenzo ? carly : alcazar . skye : he looks just like lorenzo . carly : i mean , it says here his name is tomás delgado . skye : and wait , wait . he 's marrying ... ugh ! blair cramer ? carly : i like blair . skye : yeah , you would . carly : what do you have against blair ? skye : well , gee , i do n't know . she borrowed my nail polish , did n't return it , and then framed me for attempted murder . carly : [ chuckles ] good for blair . skye : oh , what does that all matter ? what matters is that lorenzo is alive , the father of my daughter . carly : i knew that blair was marrying tomás delgado , but i did n't know he looked so much like alcazar . skye : he does n't just look like him . he looks exactly like him ! how is that even possible ? carly : i think i know someone who can help us . starr : what are you doing ? todd : what do you mean what am i doing ? i have a job . i publish a newspaper . starr : you 're supposed to be reading the novel . todd : daddy 's a big shot . i do n't do things that i do n't want to do . i pay people to do the things that i do n't feel like doing . starr : i promised molly that you would give this your personal attention . todd : starr , i 'm really busy here . i ca n't just drop everything to read a kids book . starr : did i fail to mention that molly is sam morgan 's baby sister ? todd : fine . what 's it about ? starr : oh , my god . it 's amazing . todd : 50 words or less . starr : it 's about this -- todd : no , no , starr , not you . you . you 're on kid . pitch me . dante : look , this is a very personal decision . we just prefer not to talk about it like it was a business transaction . woman : i understand . but we 're not just talking about a child . we 're also talking about my life . you 're asking a complete stranger to relinquish nine months of her time to tolerate all the ups and downs of pregnancy , to carry a baby to term , feel it growing in her womb , deliver it , then give it up and go our separate ways . no matter how you put it , i 'd be providing you with a service . dante : and we understand that . woman : i 'm sure you do . by that some token , i do n't think it 's wrong of me to ask for something in return . i need to be providing for my own family while i 'm providing you with yours . lulu : why do n't we just table this for now , and we 'll be in touch to schedule a second conversation ? woman : you seem like good people , and i 'm sure you 'll make great parents . but you might want to lower your expectations . candidates like me are few and far between . maxie : that was a -- a different time in our lives -- my life , anyway . ellie : yeah , but clearly , you and damian loved each other enough to become engaged . so why are n't you together now ? maxie : spinelli did n't want me anymore . spinelli : it is significantly more complicated than that . maxie : well ... when it came time to say our vows , um ... spinelli is actually -- he 's the smartest person that i know , and ... he realized i was n't ready to give him the commitment that he deserved . but by the time i was ready to settle down , he had moved on . i guess you could say i waited him out of his feelings for me , so ... ellie : and now ? maxie : and now ... now we 're just friends . so he 's all yours . [ chuckles ] michael : i love my parents . i ca n't shut that off . i do n't want to . a.j . : i get it . i do . i ... i was n't around , and so you bonded with sonny and carly . michael : look , i get that you 're not solely to blame for everything . it 's complicated . everybody was wrong . and as much as you have to accept my relationship with them , they have to accept my relationship with you . you 're back , and , really , i 'm glad that we have the chance now to get to know each other . a.j . : you think sonny will accept that ? michael : you know , it does n't matter . a.j . : michael , i probably do n't need to tell you this , but sonny does n't like when anyone challenges his authority . and when he hears no , well , he usually figures out a way to change their mind . sonny : you have tried every trick in the book to try to trash my life with kate -- to get her and you out of my life . i just want to know why . connie : since when do you care about my reasons ? suddenly , you just want everyone to love you ? sonny : like you used to ? if you 're the host personality , that means kate is a symptom . right ? connie : that 's right . sonny : that means you 're the girl that i fell in love with back in bensonhurst , and you -- you were in love with me . you fell in love with me . or are you just the alter ? connie : i am not ... sonny : hey . connie : ... the alter . sonny : okay , okay . so then you are connie ... the girl i fell in love with in bensonhurst , and you 're the girl who fell in love with me . if that is true , why are you coming at me so hard ? why frame me for those kids ' deaths ? why humiliate me at her wedding ? we loved each other , right ? so why would you turn your back on me ? connie : 'cause i got raped , sonny . sonny : not by me . by joe . connie : because of you ! if you would have been there , i would never have been raped . todd : come on , molly . i have n't got all day . what 's your book about ? what are the characters ? is there a journey ? please tell me that there 's a journey . molly : yeah , i mean , the -- the main character travels from southern maine to another part of maine for -- todd : no , an emotional journey ... some kind of hook , something for the audience to get invested in . molly : oh , that . yeah , there 's definitely that . i mean , it 's something everyone can relate to . it 's a love story . todd : oh . no . fine . what -- what kind of -- what kind of a love story ? like , unrequited love , first love , love / hate ? molly : i do n't know . todd : you do n't know . tell you what -- why do n't you come back when you do know . molly : the kind of love that hurts . the kind that 's no good for you but you ca n't do without . it makes you feel stupid because you keep going back for it , because you keep thinking , `` this time will be different . this time , it 'll work . `` that 's 50 words exactly , sir , after my last `` i do n't know . `` am i disqualified ? todd : h - how does it end ? molly : read it and see . todd : you got to tell me . you ca n't just do -- do they end up together ? please tell me they end up together . starr : start on page 1 . dante : we were on the same page , for the most part . lulu : except our baby does n't have a price tag . dante : yeah , baby , we 're gon na have to pay a surrogate . lulu : i know , but that woman , first , she tries to get us in a bidding war over her uterus , and then she tries to make us feel bad about `` buying `` a baby ? i mean , can you imagine nine months of that ? dante : the right surrogate is out there , okay ? we just have to keep looking . lulu : what if we 've already found her ? maxie : well , um , now you have your explanation and , i 'm assuming , your hairbrush , so ... could i get my picture back ? ellie : i apologize . and i promise i will never go in your room again without asking . maxie : no , it 's okay . i think we needed to get all this out in the open anyway . i have to go . spinelli : that 's -- that 's it ? we do n't need to talk anymore ? maxie : i 'm pretty sure we do n't have anything to talk about . [ door closes ] a.j . : when sonny does n't get what he wants , he does not hesitate to use force . that 's the difference between me and sonny . all right ? i know i ca n't coerce a feeling out of you . he 's been doing that to you your whole life . michael : you may need to believe that , but you 're wrong . a.j . : come on , michael . he 's volatile , right ? he screams , he yells , you try and make it okay , right ? you probably got that from jason . but here 's the thing -- jason was an adult . it was his choice to dedicate his life to sonny . no offense , but you 're still a kid . he should be looking after you . michael : i do n't need anybody to take care of me . a.j . : sonny wants you to love him and reject me . and when he does n't get what he wants , he has no compunction about putting a gun to someone 's head . you mark my words , you keep defying him , and sooner or later , he 'll do that to you . michael : i got to go . uh , i just wanted to stop by . a.j . : [ sighs ] michael , please , think about what i said -- not just about sonny but about elq . 'cause i 'm telling you , i got a gut feeling you and i could be a great team . sonny : you blame me for what joe jr. did to you ? connie : you ca n't even say the words , can you ! joe jr. raped me because of you ! you remember what joe jr. was like back then , sonny , remember ? his father would throw money at him with one hand and cut him down with the other . he was stupid . he was n't tough enough . he did n't have enough potential -- not like you . you were the son scully never had , right ? how many times did he say that to you ? how many times did joe jr . hear him say that ? joe jr . knew his own father favored you , and you did nothing . sonny : joe jr. was scum . connie : you loved that he was scum . you loved the way you looked in comparison to him . he would never measure up to you , and he knew it . he could n't become you . but he could take what you had , so he did . he took me . sonny : i did n't know . connie : you could n't see past the halo that scully put on your head -- sonny corinthos , the chosen one ! that 's why you did n't know ! you were n't there when he ... when he forced himself ... on me . you said you loved me . you said you 'd always protect me . sonny : i would have done anything for you . connie : you did nothing to protect me ! i was alone when joe jr . came to the house . i had no help . i tried -- i tried to fight him off , with all of my might , but i could n't stop him ! and neither could you because you were n't there . why ? why were n't you there , sonny ? why did n't you save me ? spinelli : i am so sorry . i should have told you . ellie : yes , you should have . i had no idea you and maxie 's relationship had ever verged matrimony . spinelli : yeah , but you heard maxie . there 's nothing between us ! i made that very , very clear to her . ellie : and that was when ? spinelli : [ clears throat ] uh ... last week ? ellie : i 'm sorry . what ? spinelli : last week . ellie : [ scoffs ] but the wedding was when ? spinelli : three years ago . ellie : so , what exactly happened last week ? spinelli : maxie declared her love for me and then asked me to choose between you and her . maxie : oh ! you guys would not believe my morning . and it 's only gon na go downhill from here . i 'll be lucky if i make it to lunch without a head injury or a wardrobe malfunction . ugh ! so , what about you guys ? did you find your surrogate yet ? dante : uh , well , that depends . maxie : on what ? lulu : whether or not you still want to give us our baby . todd : oh , blair , what are you doing ? carly : hey , we need to talk . todd : about what ? carly : blair . todd : no , i 'm -- i 'm not gon na -- why would you want to talk to me about blair ? carly : okay , fine . we do n't have to talk about blair , but tell me everything you know about the man she 's gon na marry . todd : you want me to talk to you about the man that 's gon na marry the mother of my children ? carly : yes , and if you tell me fast , it wo n't hurt as bad . todd : are you trying to punish me ? carly : it 's important , todd . come on . todd : what ? no , i am not gon na discuss blair 's sorry excuse for a replacement husband tomás delgado with you . carly : what if i tell you that 's not tomás delgado ? sonny : i 'm sorry . i did n't know . connie : who are you apologizing to ? sonny : you , both . connie : does n't make a difference now . sonny : if i had known what joe was gon na do , if i had any way to stop him from attacking you , i 'd have done it . i 'm sorry that i was n't there to protect you . but you 're safe now . joe 's gone . he 's gone . i 'm not gon na let anybody hurt you , ever , okay ? you do n't ha -- you do n't have to be afraid anymore . 'cause you 're safe . kate , connie , i do n't care . it does n't matter to me . you got to come back to me , okay ? do you want to come back to me ? connie : sonny ... michael : dad ? what the hell are you doing ? | starr drags molly to todd 's office so he can look at her manuscript . meanwhile , todd sees the wedding announcement for tomás and blair 's impending nuptials . he crumples up the newspaper page and throws it across the room , just as starr opens the door . he says he ca n't believe her mother is marrying the hired assassin that ruined his life . he says he will look at molly 's manuscript if starr boycotts her mother 's wedding . starr reverses the emotional blackmail and tells him that molly did n't know for months that her sister sam 's son was alive . todd takes the manuscript and tells molly to sell him on it . molly says it is tragic love story . carly runs into skye at kelly 's and immediately starts harassing her . skye thanks her for the nonexistent condolences for the loss of edward . carly says skye is n't related to edward anyway . skye shoots back that she is as much a quartermaine as michael is a corinthos . she tells carly that the next time they talk , michael will have left carly and taken his place by a.j . the two of them get into a brawl . once broken apart , skye checks on the condition of her new tablet device . she turns it on and sees blair and tomás ' engagement picture . she wonders why lorenzo alcazar is marrying blair cramer , whom she hates . carly agrees that tomás looks a lot like lorenzo . carly says she thinks she knows someone who can help them find out if tomás is lorenzo . she goes to todd 's office and asks him to tell her everything he knows about blair 's fiancé . he does n't want to talk about tomás delgado . she says he might not be tomás delgado . | <s>[INST] dante : so , thank you for coming in . we will be in touch . wow . lulu : welcome . thanks for answering our ad . you want some juice or some sparkling water ? how about a bloody mary ? dante : [ chuckles ] well , it is a club . people drink in clubs . lulu : at 10 : 00 in the morning ? dante : yeah , it 's happy hour somewhere . lulu : when you 're interviewing to be a surrogate . and that voice ? i swear , i thought she was gon na say that she would give up smoking for the pregnancy and wear the patch . dante : okay , well , she 's not pregnant yet . lulu : and she wo n't be with our kid . dante : all right , so , she 's off the list . who 's next ? lulu : who cares ? this whole thing is a bust . do you think it 's too late to consider maxie ? spinelli : sorry . i did n't know you like jelly . please have it . i 'd just get strawberry preserves all over me while you wo n't even leave a trace of glaze . maxie : huh . interest rates are down . that 's awful . spinelli : that 's actually good . maxie : i wonder how the codgers are doing this term . spinelli : it 's the dodgers , and it 's football season . maxie : oh - ho ! that opus the penguin is such a card ! spinelli : yeah , he was , while he was still in print . look , maxie ... i 'm sorry i hurt your feelings , okay ? but this -- this silent treatment is -- it 's impractical and improbable . look , at some point , we 're gon na have to talk to each other , and there 's too much at stake between us not to . ellie : damian 's right . there 's more going on here than you 've let on , and now i know all about it . a.j . : [ chuckles ] that 's better . [ door closes ] michael : hey . a.j . : hey , michael . what brings you here , son ? michael : just checking in , seeing how the family 's doing . a.j . : good . uh , yeah , we 're -- we 're hanging in there . alice is interviewing new cooks , and mom 's taking care of lila rae . we 're all trying to not think about grandfather . i think as long as we stay busy , we 'll be okay . michael : what 's this ? a.j . : um , that 's a -- that 's just a little idea i was talking to skye about . shawn : pine valley ? port charles too dull for you ? skye : oh , no , i just like to keep up with all the goings - on in my former burgs , you know ? pine valley , llanview , port charles ... shawn : oh , what 's going on in pine valley ? skye : actually , my uncle stuart is an artist , and he 's gon na have an art exhibition , and i 'm gon na head down to see it . carly : why do n't you do us all a favor and stay there ? starr : molly , come on . molly : no . no , no , no . really , i do n't -- i do n't know if this is a good idea . i doubt your father 's gon na want to publish my manuscript . starr : he will once he sees how great it is . molly : but what if he hates it ? starr : okay , look -- i know that my dad has a reputation for being ruthless , but deep down inside , he 's just a little pussycat . molly : well , he was n't much of a pussycat when he fired my sister . starr : well , there were extenuating circumstances . besides , you have me on your side today . you just have to catch him in a good mood . todd : aaaaaaaaah ! starr : your aim is off . todd : what do you want ? starr : i need to talk to you . todd : that 's right you do ! you need to apologize for stabbing me in the back ! sonny : any progress ? max : i think you better see for yourself , boss . sonny : how 's our patient , doc ? dr. chriton : she 's a handful . ellie : damian , maximilliana , it 's time you told me ... the truth . spinelli : the truth ? ellie : yeah . the one you 've omitted , about the real , unvarnished nature of your relationship . maxie : real ? spinelli : unvarnished ? ellie : yes , that you two are married ! dante : i thought we already talked about this . lulu : we did . dante : okay . and we decided we did n't want to take maxie up on her offer because it was gon na complicate things . lulu : but what if we were wrong ? i mean , we know maxie . dante : yeah , we know maxie . lulu : she cares about us , and she wants to help us . dante : yeah , maxie cares about us , in her own special way , and i think she would do this in a heartbeat . lulu : right . so what 's the problem ? dante : that is the problem ? she 's so impulsive with her decision - making , i do n't think she thinks about the consequences of anything unless it has something to do with what outfit she 's gon na wear . lulu : mm . yeah , but we did have a very extensive conversation about surrogacy , and we even ... talked about the possibility of stretch marks , which she tripped over and still decided she wanted to go through with it . dante : okay . well , so maybe maxie 's not completely off the table . but let 's -- you know , we got one more applicant . let 's not make any snap decisions just because the others have been -- lulu : disastrous . dante : let 's see what this one has to say . who knows ? maybe the perfect surrogate is still out there . sonny : i do n't understand . how did somebody who 's bound and gagged manage to give you a black eye ? dr. chriton : i tried hypnotizing her to coax kate into emerging . that 's when she head - butted me . connie : [ shouting ] sonny : no sign of kate ? dr. chriton : none . this is the most entrenched alter i 've ever experienced . i 'm sorry , mr. corinthos , but i am not the doctor for this job . sonny : keep trying . sooner or later , you 're gon na get it . she 'll break through sooner or later . dr. chriton : no , i do n't know if she 's gon na break through into her mind or into my skull . i - i 'm sorry , but i -- sonny : you 're the doctor , so you got to do what you have to do . do you understand ? dr. chriton : no , you do n't need a doctor . you need an exorcist . connie : come on ! max : what now , boss ? sonny : take a break , take a break . max : you sure ? sonny : go get something to eat . leave me alone with connie . max : all right . sonny : what am i gon na do with you ? connie : aaaaaah ! todd : well , what do you have to say for yourself , benedicta arnold ? molly : m - maybe i should go . starr : it 'll only take a minute . how have i wronged you this time ? come on , get your rant over with so we can move on . todd : like you do n't know . starr : i do n't know . oh . todd : `` oh ! `` `` oh ! `` starr : oh . todd : `` oh ! `` the wedding 's saturday ! they could n't wait for the body to be cold ? ! molly : body ? todd : i 'm the body ! they 're dancing on my grave , and you -- you could n't tell me ? starr : i thought you knew -- todd : how the hell would i know ? the only person that speaks to me from llanview thinks i 'm spider - man 'cause he 's 7 ! you did n't think to mention to me that mother was marrying an assassin ? starr : i was a little worried that you would n't react very well to it . todd : oh , come on ! i can handle disappointing news ! starr : like you 're handling it right now ? todd : she 's marrying that guy . starr : she says that she loves him . todd : he kidnapped me . he took me away from her . he took me away from you . he took me away from everything . he made it possible for that bastard victor to steal my life for eight years . how can she possibly be okay with this ? ! starr : you 're gon na have to ask her that yourself . todd : and how can you be okay with that ? ! you are not going to this wedding ! starr : she 's my mom . todd : i 'm your father ! starr : dad , i 'm sorry . todd : so am i . carly : someone must miss you in pine valley . no one does here . skye : oh , before i forget , i 'd like to thank you . for your condolences . losing edward was such a terrible ordeal , and it really meant so much -- carly : you 're as much edward 's granddaughter as i am . skye : i 'm as much of a quartermaine as michael is a corinthos . carly : i was married to sonny . your mother banged some sideshow carnie and sired you in the sawdust . shawn : okay , carly , maybe you should take a step back -- carly : you know what this bitch did to me ? she was a.j . 's willing accomplice . skye : i had nothing to do with a.j . kidnapping michael . carly : before that , she slept her way across the eastern seaboard , leeching off one rich family after another . skye : like that 's not something you would never even remotely do . carly : save the crocodile tears , okay ? you did n't lose edward . he was never yours to lose . skye : i 'm gon na let this one go . carly : really ? you 're gon na take the high road ? you should get a map . skye : maybe i 'll drop you a line , and maybe you can tell me then what you 've learned about loss . carly : what the hell is that supposed to mean ? skye : well , by that time , michael will have taken his place by a.j . , right where he belongs . and you will be utterly and completely forsaken . michael : should n't you be focused on your defense ? a.j . : yeah , well , you know , diane 's handling all that . she said if i just do what i 'm told and stay out of the way , she 'll do everything else . michael : well , that sounds like diane . a.j . : yeah . you know , i think right now , elq is my best distraction . the only problem is , tracy 's the c.e.o . , and she 's never gon na let me back in the company . michael : well , not unless she gets voted out . a.j . : [ chuckles ] now you 're thinking like a quartermaine . that 's exactly what skye said . okay , here 's what we 're doing . we were actually crunching the numbers to see if i could get enough support -- actually a majority of the shareholders -- to side with me . michael : and how did it fall out ? a.j . : that depends on you . lulu : why do you want to be a surrogate ? woman : okay . well , uh ... i have two kids of my own , and i love it , so i figured , why not help people who want to have a family of their own but are having trouble getting one started ? lulu : and your husband is okay with this ? woman : he supports it . to be perfectly honest with you , he 's out of work , and we could use the money . and , as it turns out , i 'm one of those women who loved being pregnant . doing it again seems like a pretty good way to spend nine months while providing for my family at the same time . ellie : so , now that your secret marriage has been uncovered , i have to ask ... what 's your game ? spinelli : ellie , there is no game . ellie : so you deny that you 're luring me into your bed of lies , your extratraditional family ? spinelli : i 'm sorry . `` extra `` what ? ellie : i 'm sorry . but i do n't have it in me to be anybody 's sister wife . maybe it works for hipsters or hollywood actors or -- maxie : no , no , no ! i do n't want a sister wife . spinelli : i do n't have a sister nor a wife in the first place ! ellie : well , what about her ? so you two are n't married ? spinelli : nor have we ever been . ellie : okay . well , then , how do you explain this ? connie : sonny corinthos has me in here ! please ! sonny : i 'm sorry . did you say something ? connie : you ca n't do this to me . sonny : i already did . connie : you can not kidnap me and tie me up here , sonny ! sonny : says who ? you ? connie : this is n't gon na work ! you know i have a life . sonny : uh - huh . you have kate 's life , the one you stole from her while she was traumatized . connie : if kate wanted her life , she 'd be living it . do you see her here ? ! sonny : not yet . connie : look , you hold me in here , the more trouble you 're gon na get in . i have people who care about me . sonny : name one . name one ! connie : my husband ! he 's gon na come looking for me . sonny : funny thing about johnny . i had my people on him while you took your little vacation . he did n't have a care in the world . connie : he 's not the only one . sonny : and your boss , manning , he packed up all your stuff the day you left . let 's check your phone . is it in your purse ? huh ? whoa ! let 's see . let 's see what we got . okay . there it is . hmm . no missed calls , no voicemail , no texts . it almost seems to me ... like people are happy to get rid of you . why would that be ? todd : well , you 've made your loyalties clear . you can leave . starr : dad , i talked to mom ... about your first wedding , and ... she said that she loved you . and when you danced and you showered her with golden balloons , that it was the perfect moment . todd : she said that ? just that ? she said it was perfect ? how can she marry another guy ? starr : because he makes her happy now . todd : she 's lying . she 's a liar . she 's lying to herself , she 's lying to you -- i hope you know that -- she 's lying to you . starr : dad , you ca n't make me choose sides . todd : i think you already have . starr : okay , i realize that you 're in a very bad mood right now , but i have -- todd : hell of a day for you to master the art of the understatement . starr : i have something that can make it better . todd : what ? starr : turn around and meet molly . molly , my dad . todd : you 're molly ? you 're gon na make it all better ? what 're you gon na do ? do you make balloon animals ? do you juggle ? entertain me . nothing ? useless . elev 's over there . i 'm sure you can figure it out after that . starr : molly wrote a book . todd : oh , goodie for molly . snooki wrote a book . snooki wrote three . starr : well , molly wrote a good book -- a very , very great book , actually . todd : terrific . what does that have to do with me ? starr : did n't you acquire a publishing house when you expanded your empire ? todd : no , starr . i acquired two publishing houses . starr : you should invest in this . you will make a mint . i 'm telling you , i could n't put the novel down , it was so good . todd : okay . i trust your taste . you got great taste in everything but boys . i will give that manuscript a look - see , provided you do one thing in return . starr : name it . todd : boycott your mother 's wedding . a.j . : i ca n't get rid of tracy unless i get a majority of the shareholders behind me . right now , as it stands , she 's got 41 % , assuming that alice and maya throw their weight behind her . michael : yeah , probably . a.j . : okay , with mom and skye , i 've got 35 % . now , you join the cause , well , hey , suddenly , we 've got ourselves a tie . and that means that sam has the deciding vote . michael : so you 're asking me to help remove tracy from elq . a.j . : look , i do n't want to cut her out completely . i just want to remove her as the c.e.o . michael : has she done that bad of a job ? a.j . : well , elq has certainly done better . michael : and you think you could fix it . a.j . : michael , i know elq like the back of my hand . before ned opted out for his little music career , i was the one being groomed to take over the company . ' course , i think we all know how that ended up . michael : yeah , did n't you embezzle like half of elq 's operating budget ? a.j . : yes , which is another reason why grandfather was ashamed of me . but he got most of the money back . it was confiscated and was returned after my so- called death . michael : still , i can see why the shareholders would have a hard time trusting you . michael : yeah , i get it , and that 's why i came back -- to make amends . michael , i 'll do whatever i have to to uphold the quartermaine legacy . it 's too late for me to make grandfather proud , but i really believe that i can make the family proud , and i could use your help . michael : [ scoffs ] i do n't know . tracy 's been pretty decent to me . we kind of get along . at least , we did . a.j . : okay . what changed ? michael : you coming back , and then she went on this mission to throw you in prison . a.j . : so that means you 'll consider it . skye : must be terrible , carly , really , knowing that michael is n't that impressionable young boy he once was . carly : do n't talk about my kid . michael knows who his parents are . he knows we love him , and he loves us . skye : well , give it time . you and sonny ca n't keep him walled up anymore . you ca n't lie and scam your way out of it this time . carly : i do n't need to lie . michael remembers everything . he remembers being kidnapped and being lied to . he remembers seeing a.j . almost kill jason . skye : oh . that 's it ! of course ! jason is n't here anymore . he 's not here to save you and clean up your messes . well , finally , michael 's gon na get to know who his father really is , and he 'll get to know his mother for what she really is -- the slut of port charles ! maxie : that is mine . um , what were you doing in my room ? ellie : i was innocently looking for the hairbrush i lent you when this caught my eye -- a portrait of you and my erstwhile boyfriend in nuptial regalia . anybody ? spinelli : ellie , you deserve to know that maxie and i were once betrothed . ellie : betrothed ? maxie : that means engaged . ellie : no , i know what it means . spinelli : but maxie was n't ready . so we ... we called it off , and we had a -- a non - wedding . ellie : okay , define `` non - wedding . `` spinelli : no vows were made , no commitments . we basically just skipped to the after party , and now -- now we 're just friends . ellie : but you intended to we d and spend the rest of your lives in tax- deductible connubial bliss . so how did you go from that to non - marriage to just friends ? woman : this is a nice place . if this works out , i 'm glad the baby will be well - provided for . lulu : actually , i 'm just part owner here . woman : oh . still , you 're certainly doing better than my husband and i , given how much surrogacy costs . lulu : yes , it is expensive . dante : well , my father was generous enough to help us out . woman : that 's nice . what i would n't give to have a fairy godfather . dante : it 's not quite like that , though . lulu : um , you know , we 're good for it . it 'll all be stipulated in a contract . we 'll cover any costs related to pregnancy . woman : would that include my rent ? i do n't want to sound selfish , but having a baby , there 's a lot of overhead -- groceries , medicine -- and it may not always seem like it , but it 's all for the benefit of the baby . you do want a healthy , stress - free surrogate , right ? lulu : yeah , we can just work that out in the details . woman : i hope so . you 're a lovely couple . i 'd much rather help you out than the others . dante : uh , sorry . others ? woman : i thought i told you . there 's another couple . lulu : you 're talking to another couple ? woman : it 's just talk . obviously , there has n't been a commitment . but in the interest of full disclosure , i should tell you , they 're offering a very generous package . lulu : [ chuckles ] uh ... well , people who ca n't carry their own child will go to great lengths to get one , but we do n't want to buy a baby . woman : what else would you call it ? a.j . : son , elq is your birthright . now , i understand that maybe you 're nervous , but i could teach you , if you 'll let me . michael : i ... i got school and stuff . i have no time to learn the ropes at elq . a.j . : so you 're saying that really this is just a question of having enough time . michael : yeah . a.j . : or maybe it 's something else . michael : like what ? a.j . : that night , in lockup , when you refused to leave my side , i felt like you and i were really connecting , and i got to tell you , now i feel like you 're pulling away . michael : i 'm just being cautious . a.j . : you sure sonny has n't gotten to you ? sonny : why are you with johnny ? do n't you want a real man ? connie : why do n't you show me one . i 'll let you know . sonny : i mean , he 's weak . i did n't know vulnerability turned you on so much . you know what i mean ? connie : you got a point there , sonny . i do like a strong man . which reminds me , where 's milo , huh ? that guy 's built like a brick house . he 's a great kisser , to boot . why is n't he on guard duty ? [ gasps ] are you afraid we wo n't be able to resist each other ? sonny : i 'm not worried about milo . connie : you should be . youth , vigor ... i 'd take him over you any day . or the plumber or the garbage man or the extermina -- sonny : what is your problem with me ? why do you hate me so much ? molly : um , you know -- starr : i 'm not boycotting mom 's wedding ! todd : fine . then go back to llanview , and take your young - adult novel with you , and ask your new stepfather to publish it for you . oh , that 's right . he ca n't publish it for you . he 's not a publisher . he kills people , and he does it for money . starr : you know what ? that actually sounds like a great idea . i 'm sure between mom and tomás , they know someone in publishing that would love to read your novel . molly : really ? starr : yes , really . molly , any editor would be intrigued , not only by the story line in your novel but by your personal history , as well . you are the daughter of a cassadine ... and the sister to the notorious sam morgan , who was in a very public kidnapping . todd : excuse me ? starr : oh , i 'm sorry . you did n't know that molly is sam morgan 's sister ? todd : so what ? starr : imagine all the publicity angles . after everything that her family has been through , do n't you think it would be nice if something good would happen -- todd : she got the baby back . is n't that enough ? starr : no ! that does n't make up for all of the months that molly and her family did n't get to spend with her nephew , right ? so maybe publishing molly 's novel would make things a little bit more right . todd : you were such a sweet little girl . what happened ? starr : i 'm my father 's daughter . todd : fine . give me the damn book . starr : pleasure doing business with you . molly : what just happened ? max : no , hey , hey ! shawn : you 're grown women ! skye : she hit me first ! carly : oh , you 're insane ! skye : oh ! look what you did ! do you know how long i waited in line for this version ? ! carly : i 'm sure there 's some geek somewhere that 'll sleep with you if you want another one . skye : i swear , if you broke this , i 'll -- [ gasps ] carly : oh , my god . skye : lorenzo ? carly : alcazar . skye : he looks just like lorenzo . carly : i mean , it says here his name is tomás delgado . skye : and wait , wait . he 's marrying ... ugh ! blair cramer ? carly : i like blair . skye : yeah , you would . carly : what do you have against blair ? skye : well , gee , i do n't know . she borrowed my nail polish , did n't return it , and then framed me for attempted murder . carly : [ chuckles ] good for blair . skye : oh , what does that all matter ? what matters is that lorenzo is alive , the father of my daughter . carly : i knew that blair was marrying tomás delgado , but i did n't know he looked so much like alcazar . skye : he does n't just look like him . he looks exactly like him ! how is that even possible ? carly : i think i know someone who can help us . starr : what are you doing ? todd : what do you mean what am i doing ? i have a job . i publish a newspaper . starr : you 're supposed to be reading the novel . todd : daddy 's a big shot . i do n't do things that i do n't want to do . i pay people to do the things that i do n't feel like doing . starr : i promised molly that you would give this your personal attention . todd : starr , i 'm really busy here . i ca n't just drop everything to read a kids book . starr : did i fail to mention that molly is sam morgan 's baby sister ? todd : fine . what 's it about ? starr : oh , my god . it 's amazing . todd : 50 words or less . starr : it 's about this -- todd : no , no , starr , not you . you . you 're on kid . pitch me . dante : look , this is a very personal decision . we just prefer not to talk about it like it was a business transaction . woman : i understand . but we 're not just talking about a child . we 're also talking about my life . you 're asking a complete stranger to relinquish nine months of her time to tolerate all the ups and downs of pregnancy , to carry a baby to term , feel it growing in her womb , deliver it , then give it up and go our separate ways . no matter how you put it , i 'd be providing you with a service . dante : and we understand that . woman : i 'm sure you do . by that some token , i do n't think it 's wrong of me to ask for something in return . i need to be providing for my own family while i 'm providing you with yours . lulu : why do n't we just table this for now , and we 'll be in touch to schedule a second conversation ? woman : you seem like good people , and i 'm sure you 'll make great parents . but you might want to lower your expectations . candidates like me are few and far between . maxie : that was a -- a different time in our lives -- my life , anyway . ellie : yeah , but clearly , you and damian loved each other enough to become engaged . so why are n't you together now ? maxie : spinelli did n't want me anymore . spinelli : it is significantly more complicated than that . maxie : well ... when it came time to say our vows , um ... spinelli is actually -- he 's the smartest person that i know , and ... he realized i was n't ready to give him the commitment that he deserved . but by the time i was ready to settle down , he had moved on . i guess you could say i waited him out of his feelings for me , so ... ellie : and now ? maxie : and now ... now we 're just friends . so he 's all yours .

neil : hello . [ knock on door ] neil : what are you doing here ? hilary : i am writing up the latest financial reports for dr. neville 's research project . neil : really ? that 's not your job . hilary : and you are not my supervisor . neil : okay . come on , hilary . give me a break . hilary : i 'm trying to help a doctor who saved my life . is that okay with you ? neil : you have better uses for your time . hilary : you made your point , neil . neil : there are bigger issues to deal with . hilary : i know that , okay ? i heard you . i heard everything that you said . you could never love me again . you think i still love devon . i heard you . i could n't sign the divorce papers . neil : i 'm not sure how to take that . does that mean you 're ready to give devon a chance and try to make your marriage work ? devon : so , i had divorce papers drawn up . lily : oh . i 'm sure that made hilary happy . devon : you 'd think , but , uh , she has n't signed them . lily : why ? devon : says she ca n't do it . lily : i do n't -- i do n't understand . devon : i do n't understand , either . i , uh , you 'd think she 'd be thrilled i 'm finally giving her what she wants . lily : so she 's not going back to dad ? devon : does n't look like it . lily : well , then what does she want ? devon : hell if i know what she wants . it 's like she 's playing games with me . lily : well , of course she 's playing games . she loves playing games with you and dad . is it about money ? devon : i do n't know , and honestly , i - i really do n't care . i just want things to be settled and done . lily : i 'm really sorry . i know it 's hell being in limbo like this . devon : it 's what it is . has anything changed with you and cane ? lily : um , no . cane still ca n't forgive me . lauren : i 'm treating you and colin to lunch today for your anniversary . jill : my , that is a sweet sisterly surprise . lauren : anything for you . jill : [ chuckles ] lauren : and you , colin , you know . you 're married to her . jill : [ chuckles ] colin : you 're too kind . jill : oh . did you know that cane was meeting michael here today ? cane : thank you . lauren : i knew that michael had a meeting , but i did n't know it was with cane . jill : i have a very bad feeling about this . cane : so , um ... i want to talk to you about lily and me and our situation . michael : the separation . cane : yeah . mike , it 's been really hard on us , you know , and i just need to talk to you about , you know , what i should do next . michael : well , are you looking for personal advice or for a lawyer to help end your marriage ? dr. anderson : how are you feeling today , sage ? sage : why do n't you tell me ? you 're the expert . dr. anderson : sage , i 'm just asking -- sage : i 've been committed to a psychiatric facility . how am i supposed to feel , doctor ? i hate being here . and i guess i 'm kind of relieved that i 'm here . dr. anderson : really ? sage : yeah , i 've been doing a lot of thinking . not much else to do around here . dr. anderson : thoughts on ? sage : how angry i 've been at nick and you . i keep telling myself that the two of you are the problem , that i do n't need help . but i guess if three doctors say that i do , i guess i do . but i do know one thing . dr. anderson : what 's that ? sage : i never apologized to you for attacking you . i never said i 'm sorry . so ... sorry . dr. anderson : well , i think we both know that you do n't mean that . faith : i drew something for daddy to give to sage . see ? this is sad sage . this is how she feels now . but this is how she 'll feel later . nick : can i see that ? faith : yeah . [ sighs ] i drew it because sage is sick and she might not be coming home for a while . nick : who told you that ? sharon : i did . nick : why do n't you go get that hot chocolate i promised you ? faith : okay . nick : [ chuckles ] why would you tell her sage is sick ? sharon : because she is . i did n't go into detail . i did n't tell her that sage attacked dr. anderson or was arrested . nick : well , that 's not your place . sharon : okay , well , our daughter had questions . and besides , faith knows that i did well after my stay at fairview . nick : you should have run it by me first . sharon : okay , well , i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to upset you or step on your toes , but our daughter needed an explanation for why her stepmother is n't gon na be around for a while . sage is in real trouble . nick : actually , sharon , sage is n't in as much trouble as you think . sharon : how can you say that , nick ? what 's going on with you ? sage : i really do feel awful about what happened . attacking you like that , it was wrong . and i - i really regret it . dr. anderson : taking responsibility for your actions , expressing remorse , if it 's sincere , is a first step . but it does n't mean that you 're ready to leave fairview . sage : it scares me that i need to be here , you know , but it scares me more how i lost it like that , how out of control i really was . dr. anderson : because you believe that i 'm conspiring against you . you think that i want your husband for myself . sage : it sure as hell looks that way , now does n't it ? i 'm sorry . i do n't know what 's wrong with me . i 'm really losing it . dr. anderson : look , sage , now that you 're here , we can work through all of this , okay ? but you and i are gon na have to start trusting each other . do you think you can try to do that ? sage : i will do everything i can to earn your trust . hilary : when i realized that i was n't ready to just grab a pen and divorce devon , i ... it surprised me . i really do n't know what i want anymore . neil : oh , yes , you do . hilary : you made it perfectly clear where you stand in this , neil . you want me back with your son . but it 's not about what you want . it 's about what i want , what 's right for me , what 's right for devon . neil : exactly . hilary : i do n't know how to decide that . neil : hilary . try getting rid of the guilt and the fear and look right in here where your heart is , and you 'll find the answers . devon : i do n't think cane 's done with your marriage . lily : he moved out . he wo n't touch me . he barely speaks to me . devon : he 's afraid of getting hurt again . lily : it 's not like he 's never hurt me . but i found a way to get past it . but cane -- it 's been months . and i keep telling him that he 's the only one that i want and that we can get back what we had , but he does n't believe me . devon : well , i mean , you 've done your part . lily : exactly , which is why i 'm giving up . devon : i think that one day maybe cane will let down his guard and admit that he still wants to be married to you . and when he decides to take that leap of faith , you should be there to catch him . it 's all i 'm saying . lily : what if he does n't take that leap of faith ? what if he ca n't ever trust me again ? cane : we 're living separate lives , and we 're co - parenting , you know , trying to be amicable for the kids . michael : well , it 's not the ideal situation , but everybody seems to be behaving . what 's the problem ? cane : well , the problem is , i do n't know what my options are in case lily get tired of the arrangement , you know what i mean ? michael : hold on . has she given you any indication that she is tired of you ? cane : no , no , no , no , no . i just -- i just want to be prepared , you know . michael : well , a custodial arrangement would be required should the situation escalate to a divorce . listen , cane , tell me . what is it exactly that you want ? cane : i want to wind the clock back . i want to go back to the way lily and i were . but every single time i think how she cheated on me , michael , i just get ... michael : you get angry . cane : god , i get so angry . michael : i know . you get angry . of course you do . look , i know something about that . when lauren had her affair , it crushed me . cane : how 'd you bounce back from that ? michael : it was work . we went to counseling . we talked and fought and cried a lot . cane : [ chuckles ] michael : but what really cinched the deal for me was the vision of my life without lauren . so i made the decision to trust my wife again . cane : i would love it if lily and i can get to that place . michael : then make a decision . now , look , those three have been desperately trying to act casual while they 've been watching us . cane : [ chuckles ] michael : let 's go say hello before they fall out of their seats . cane : you go first . michael : hey , wife of mine . lauren : hey . jill : hello , sweetheart . colin : did n't expect to see you here . jill : good to see you . we are being treated to lunch . lauren : yes . so , uh , what were you two discussing ? cane : so , how 's billy ? how 's billy ? is he good ? jill : he 's recuperating . he could n't be happier to be back with victoria and the kids . which reminds me , how are things going on your home front ? cane : you know , things are cordial . you know , we 're just trying to put the kids first . as long as they 're healthy and safe , that 's all that matters , you know . hey , i hear there 's a congratulations in order , right ?

his marriage ? jill : and legal repercussions ? michael : i ca n't divulge that . but if the question is whether or not i believe cane to be receptive to improving things with his wife , the answer is yes . the man is still in love with his wife . jill : good , good . colin : uh , i just ca n't see this working . jill : darling , it wo n't work without you . colin : but if there 's a snowball 's chance in hell of this fixing my son 's marriage , then i 'm in . jill : what a prince you are . okay . colin : thank you . jill : so we 're all on board . let 's get to work . lauren : okay . devon : i still think you have a much better chance of working things out than i do . lily : yeah , if only .

[ cell phone rings ] neil : hold on one second . yeah , hi , michael . uh , yeah , i 'm aware of the party . lily just told devon and me . oh , no , i 'm not in the mood for celebrating , so i -- what about lily and cane ? sage : am i crazy ? dr. anderson : we do n't like to use that word here . what you are is grief- stricken over the terrible loss of your child . and now that grief , unfortunately , has evolved into paranoia and delusion . sage : [ sighs ] all i ever wanted was a family , and now i 'll never be a mother , and nick probably does n't want me , either . dr. anderson : perhaps . but , look , i think the best thing for you to do right now is to maintain some distance from nick . sage : [ sighs ] i do n't think i can do that . dr. anderson : well , if you 'd just done that before as i had suggested , it would have given you time to grieve . and would we be here now ? sage : probably not . dr. anderson : sage , you have to concentrate on getting well . and you might want to consider what you 're gon na do after you leave fairview . sage : you think i should do that ? you think i should leave town ? dr. anderson : [ sighs ] yes . i mean , listen , it has to be your decision , sage , but i think it 'd be really great for you to get a fresh start . there 's an additional assessment , a brief written test . i 'd like you to take it . would you be willing to do that ? sage : sure . dr. anderson : okay . all right , i have to get a copy from the main office . i 'll be right back . nick : all i 'm saying is , sage is working through her problems , getting past the struggle . sharon : but you got her a good therapist at fairview , right ? she 'll be okay . nick : she 's working with dr. anderson . sharon : but sage ca n't stand dr. anderson . nick : that 's part of the problem that sage is dealing with . anderson knows us so well , so she will help sage get to the place she needs to get faster . [ cell phone rings ] nick : sorry . excuse me . hello ? sage : nick . nick : how 'd you get to a phone ? sage : anderson left the office , and i 'm in here alone . she 's definitely moving in for the kill . under the guise of psychiatric advice , she says that you and i should break up . nick : you 're kidding me . sage : no . and she also said that i should leave town . she definitely wants you . nick : have you been able to find out anything about anderson 's past , i mean , why she injected herself into our lives ? sage : nothing yet , but i think i can probably find something in her office , maybe some pictures or some documents . i just need a little more time alone . nick : [ sighs ] i do n't know about that . i mean , it 's just -- it 's not easy on your end . it just gets you in deeper . sage : honey , i 'm fine . do n't worry about me . will you help me ? nick : yeah , consider it done . hey , uh , sorry . i got to take off . but i will make sure that sage gets this , okay ? faith : okay . bye , daddy . nick : bye . do n't forget -- my place tomorrow night . big sleepover . gon na be fun . sharon : give sage our best . nick : i will . hey , sandy . uh , is this a good time ? dr. anderson : hey , nick . um , i have a moment . nick : good . i was wondering if we could meet . dr. anderson : sure . uh , when ? nick : right now . top of the tower ? dr. anderson : um , look , if this is about sage 's case , i mean , i will be giving you regular and official updates . nick : no , uh , it 's not just about sage , uh , sandy . i 'd like to talk about us . dr. anderson : um , okay . let me , uh , let me wrap this up and i 'll be on my way . um , hey , uh , can you follow me ? i need some help with the patient . sure , dr. anderson . dr. anderson : thanks . sage , this is the test . try not to overthink it . just write down your honest responses and leave it on my desk . um , chris will escort you to your room . sage : you are n't staying ? dr. anderson : uh , no . i actually have an appointment i have to run out for . but i 'll check on you later . okay . thanks . sage : bye . [ door closes ] neil : so i heard that , uh , hilary did n't sign the divorce papers . devon : you spoke to her ? neil : yeah , briefly . i did . devon , it 's a good sign . devon : no . maybe she 's just hedging her bets and keeping me on the line in case things do n't work out with you . neil : that 's impossible , because things ca n't work out with her . and i already made it clear to her that we do n't have a future together . devon : did you ? so , what ? you sleep with her , you reject her , and then i 'm the backup plan ? neil : i 'm not even gon na answer you on that one . do you understand that those papers were a great reality check for her ? it made her think about what she really wants . devon : ever since we found her , all she 's wanted is you . neil : you 've forgotten that she lost her memory . she 's been confused about everything . i believe that she has deep feelings for you . do n't shut her out , okay ? i want you to talk to her . devon : i think i 'm done talking about this with you , 'cause we 're here to save a marriage that actually has a chance right now . neil : you know what ? michael : hey , guys . lily : hi ! lauren : nice to see you . lily : hi , everyone . welcome . devon : happy anniversary , guys . lily : yeah , happy anniversary . hi . good to see you , too . jill : ohh . this is so beautiful . how lovely these flowers are and the champagne . thank you for doing this for us . lily : of course . jill : is n't that nice of her , colin ? colin : hmm ? oh , oh ! yeah . lily : i was happy to do it for you . lauren : well , why do n't we have some drinks ? jill : oh , lovely . lauren : here we go , neil . your sparkling water . neil : my water . lauren : perfect . champagne for you ? lily : yes , please . of course . we 're celebrating , right ? [ chuckles ] michael : yes , we are . cane : hey . lily : hi . jill : contact has been made . on to phase two . hilary : i did n't want this . i tried so hard . but you 're always there . in my mind . in my dreams . i did everything i could to stop myself from running and finding you and telling you that ... i love you . devon : i love you more than i ever thought was possible . and i can not imagine my life without you in it . devon : i notice you ca n't stop staring at my sister . cane : well , i never said i stopped caring for her , so ... devon : i think it goes a little deeper than that . when 's the last time you guys were together without the kids ? cane : it 's been awhile . devon : 'cause you 're trying to keep your distance ? it seems like , uh , from where i 'm standing , keeping your distance is n't helping very much . cane : [ chuckles ] devon : just an observation i 'm making . you know , you ca n't stay frozen in time forever , cane . believe me . i know that . [ cell phone vibrates ] cane : you know what ? uh , you should get that . excuse me . neil : something wrong ? devon : hilary wants to see me . neil : oh . well , go . go on . this could change everything . devon : about what ? neil : the rest of us will handle things here . go on . devon : hey , excuse me . sorry . i 'm gon na have to take off , but i just want to say happy anniversary . jill : oh , thank you . thank you for everything . devon : of course . of course . good to see you guys . lauren : bye , sweetie . devon : see you . jill : so ... [ clears throat ] where was i ? michael : in hong kong with tucker . lauren : yeah , he would n't climb up to the buddha . jill : oh , that 's right . and nothing i could say would change his mind . he just would not do it . and then from across the room , this woman with white hair , she looked a little bit like katherine , screams out , `` my prayers have been answered ! `` apparently all the way from tulsa , she 'd been dreaming about this big blond hunk of masculinity would help her up the 260 stairs and back down again . [ chuckling ] so she grabs poor tucker , then he escorts her up 260 stairs and back down . i thought the man 's legs would fall off . neil : all that way ? jill : yes . it was ridiculous . [ laughter ] jill : sweetheart ? hey . sweetheart . honey , are you with us ? colin : uh , uh , yeah . yeah . uh , uh , please , no , continue with these stories you 're regaling us from the tucker files . jill : my god , why did you say it like that ? colin : well , you love to talk about this guy . jill : it was a silly , little story , darling , not that you heard any of it . michael : [ chuckling ] it was hysterical . lauren : would , uh , anybody like more champagne ? jill : hmm . how nice of you to offer , lauren , since clearly my husband 's head is elsewhere . colin : you 're not still on me about the phone here , are you ? jill : oh , darling , would i do that ? colin : good . jill : let me see it . colin : ah ! do n't be ridiculous , jill . jill : colin , let me see -- colin : maybe , just maybe , it 's a special gift i have for our anniversary and i do n't want you to see it ! jill : and maybe , just maybe , it is some lying , cheating thing you 're doing , like an illicit deal . would n't be the first time , would it ? colin : are you ever gon na trust me ? ! jill : you 've given me a million reasons not to . colin : oh , double for you , sweetheart ! you -- jill : do n't you dare call me anything ! lily : okay , hey , that is enough , you guys . colin : what about being locked in the attic with the furry handcuffs ? ! jill : never mind the furry handcuffs . you lied to my face . colin : what ? ! cane : guys , guys , it 's your anniversary . jill : yeah , well , maybe our last anniversary . devon : i really do n't even know why i 'm here , hilary . hilary : it 's about the divorce papers . devon : you have n't signed them . i know that . is that it ? hilary : it 's about why i have n't signed them . devon : if you asked me to come up here so you can tell me one more time how much you love my father -- hilary : devon . devon : what ? hilary : i want to be with you . dr. anderson : it seems like being removed from the pressures of the outside world is actually making a difference for sage . nick : she 's better ? dr. anderson : i do n't want to mislead you . she 's still exhibiting a lot of erratic behavior . but she was able to carry on a rational conversation with me . surprisingly , she seems open to treatment . nick : [ sighs ] yeah , i ca n't , uh , stop worrying . our situation has gotten complicated . dr. anderson : because you and i have grown so close . are you having second thoughts about my being sage 's doctor ? nick : uh , only because , uh , it must be difficult for you , knowing sage has all these outrageous suspicions of us . dr. anderson : if you want me to withdraw -- nick : no . no , sandy , i ... i trust you with sage . selfishly , i want you to treat her . dr. anderson : why is that ? nick : because you understand me . well , sage and me , you know . you were so compassionate after sage tried to attack you , and you were willing to do anything you could to help her . dr. anderson : it 's what i do . but , nick , you must know it 's just as important for me to help you . sage : just ... ? yeah . i 'll walk you back to your room . [ crash ] sage : oh ! hey ! hey ! come back here ! devon : i 've waited a really long time to hear you say those words . hilary : i could n't say them before . devon : you pushed me away . hilary : i was confused . devon : and you 're not confused anymore ? you choose me now ? hilary : okay , i know how it feels like it 's coming out of nowhere , but ... devon : why , hilary ? hilary : because i remember what we had . devon : you know what i remember ? i remember that you just slept with my father . that memory is very fresh in my mind . it 's a little too fresh . hilary : devon , devon , devon , please . please . devon : why , hilary ? hilary : i almost died , okay ? and coming out of that , i - i was disgusted by the lies that i told , by my selfishness , by everything i did to neil . devon : what we did to neil . hilary : no , i was married , devon . you were n't . so every time i thought about our affair , it just -- devon : our love . hilary : i could n't escape the guilt , so i tried to reset my life back to who i was when i was with neil . devon : how 'd you feel once you got there ? hilary : i was relieved . you know , i was certain . i was so certain that i was doing the right thing . devon , i was that same woman in that same place , just trying to fix everything that i 'd broken . neil -- he made me see . devon : he pushed you away . hilary : no , no , he made me look , just really look , at everything that i was doing to him and everything that i was doing to you , and that 's when i saw . i saw that i never set out to hurt neil . i saw that i was n't careless with my marriage or my vows , and i was n't blinded by love . and you -- you were n't just some itch that i had to scratch . that 's not why i cheated on my husband . devon : so why did you ? hilary : i love you , devon . i do . i 'm just sorry that i hurt you . i remember what we had , and i want that . i want that forever . devon , you fought for us . please do n't stop fighting for us . just give me one more chance . neil : the only problem that you two have at this moment is that you 're too much alike . michael : i agree , and i respectfully suggest that you get over it . jill : and i respectfully suggest that he get a room , because i am through with you , darling . lauren : oh , please . do you know how many times i have begged and pleaded with you to walk away from him and you refused ? you know why ? because the two of you work together . listen , no marriage is perfect .

sharon : because she is . i did n't go into detail . i did n't tell her that sage attacked dr. anderson or was arrested . nick : well , that 's not your place . sharon : okay , well , our daughter had questions . and besides , faith knows that i did well after my stay at fairview . nick : you should have run it by me first . sharon : okay , well , i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to upset you or step on your toes , but our daughter needed an explanation for why her stepmother is n't gon na be around for a while . sage is in real trouble . nick : actually , sharon , sage is n't in as much trouble as you think . sharon : how can you say that , nick ? what 's going on with you ? sage : i really do feel awful about what happened . attacking you like that , it was wrong . and i - i really regret it . dr. anderson : taking responsibility for your actions , expressing remorse , if it 's sincere , is a first step . but it does n't mean that you 're ready to leave fairview . sage : it scares me that i need to be here , you know , but it scares me more how i lost it like that , how out of control i really was . dr. anderson : because you believe that i 'm conspiring against you . you think that i want your husband for myself . sage : it sure as hell looks that way , now does n't it ? i 'm sorry . i do n't know what 's wrong with me . i 'm really losing it . dr. anderson : look , sage , now that you 're here , we can work through all of this , okay ? but you and i are gon na have to start trusting each other . do you think you can try to do that ?

what if he ca n't ever trust me again ? cane : we 're living separate lives , and we 're co - parenting , you know , trying to be amicable for the kids . michael : well , it 's not the ideal situation , but everybody seems to be behaving . what 's the problem ? cane : well , the problem is , i do n't know what my options are in case lily get tired of the arrangement , you know what i mean ? michael : hold on . has she given you any indication that she is tired of you ? cane : no , no , no , no , no . i just -- i just want to be prepared , you know . michael : well , a custodial arrangement would be required should the situation escalate to a divorce . listen , cane , tell me . what is it exactly that you want ? cane : i want to wind the clock back . i want to go back to the way lily and i were . but every single time i think how she cheated on me , michael , i just get ... michael : you get angry . cane : god , i get so angry . michael : i know . you get angry . of course you do . look , i know something about that . when lauren had her affair , it crushed me . cane : how 'd you bounce back from that ? michael : it was work . we went to counseling . we talked and fought and cried a lot . cane : [ chuckles ] michael : but what really cinched the deal for me was the vision of my life without lauren . so i made the decision to trust my wife again . cane : i would love it if lily and i can get to that place . michael : then make a decision . now , look , those three have been desperately trying to act casual while they 've been watching us . cane : [ chuckles ] michael : let 's go say hello before they fall out of their seats . cane : you go first . michael : hey , wife of mine . lauren : hey . jill : hello , sweetheart . colin : did n't expect to see you here . jill : good to see you . we are being treated to lunch . lauren : yes . so , uh , what were you two discussing ? cane : so , how 's billy ? how 's billy ? is he good ? jill : he 's recuperating . he could n't be happier to be back with victoria and the kids . which reminds me , how are things going on your home front ?

lauren : yeah . what 's going on ? lauren : okay , same room . i 'm on that . jill : and the nudge . michael : that 's me . plus recruits . jill : and the shove . colin : that 'll be all of us . lauren : so , you and cane looked a little too intense for a friendly chat . what were you talking about ? his marriage ? jill : and legal repercussions ? michael : i ca n't divulge that . but if the question is whether or not i believe cane to be receptive to improving things with his wife , the answer is yes . the man is still in love with his wife . jill : good , good . colin : uh , i just ca n't see this working . jill : darling , it wo n't work without you . colin : but if there 's a snowball 's chance in hell of this fixing my son 's marriage , then i 'm in . jill : what a prince you are . okay . colin : thank you . jill : so we 're all on board . let 's get to work . lauren : okay . devon : i still think you have a much better chance of working things out than i do . lily : yeah , if only .

[ cell phone rings ] neil : hold on one second . yeah , hi , michael . uh , yeah , i 'm aware of the party . lily just told devon and me . oh , no , i 'm not in the mood for celebrating , so i -- what about lily and cane ? sage : am i crazy ? dr. anderson : we do n't like to use that word here . what you are is grief- stricken over the terrible loss of your child . and now that grief , unfortunately , has evolved into paranoia and delusion . sage : [ sighs ] all i ever wanted was a family , and now i 'll never be a mother , and nick probably does n't want me , either . dr. anderson : perhaps . but , look , i think the best thing for you to do right now is to maintain some distance from nick . sage : [ sighs ] i do n't think i can do that . dr. anderson : well , if you 'd just done that before as i had suggested , it would have given you time to grieve . and would we be here now ? sage : probably not . dr. anderson : sage , you have to concentrate on getting well . and you might want to consider what you 're gon na do after you leave fairview . sage : you think i should do that ? you think i should leave town ? dr. anderson : [ sighs ] yes . i mean , listen , it has to be your decision , sage , but i think it 'd be really great for you to get a fresh start . there 's an additional assessment , a brief written test . i 'd like you to take it . would you be willing to do that ? sage : sure . dr. anderson : okay . all right , i have to get a copy from the main office . i 'll be right back . nick : all i 'm saying is , sage is working through her problems , getting past the struggle . sharon : but you got her a good therapist at fairview , right ? she 'll be okay . nick : she 's working with dr. anderson . sharon : but sage ca n't stand dr. anderson . nick : that 's part of the problem that sage is dealing with . anderson knows us so well , so she will help sage get to the place she needs to get faster . [ cell phone rings ] nick : sorry . excuse me . hello ? sage : nick . nick : how 'd you get to a phone ? sage : anderson left the office , and i 'm in here alone . she 's definitely moving in for the kill . under the guise of psychiatric advice , she says that you and i should break up . nick : you 're kidding me . sage : no . and she also said that i should leave town . she definitely wants you . nick : have you been able to find out anything about anderson 's past , i mean , why she injected herself into our lives ? sage : nothing yet , but i think i can probably find something in her office , maybe some pictures or some documents . i just need a little more time alone . nick : [ sighs ] i do n't know about that . i mean , it 's just -- it 's not easy on your end . it just gets you in deeper . sage : honey , i 'm fine . do n't worry about me . will you help me ? nick : yeah , consider it done . hey , uh , sorry . i got to take off . but i will make sure that sage gets this , okay ? faith : okay . bye , daddy . nick : bye . do n't forget -- my place tomorrow night . big sleepover . gon na be fun . sharon : give sage our best . nick : i will . hey , sandy . uh , is this a good time ? dr. anderson : hey , nick . um , i have a moment . nick : good . i was wondering if we could meet . dr. anderson : sure . uh , when ? nick : right now . top of the tower ? dr. anderson : um , look , if this is about sage 's case , i mean , i will be giving you regular and official updates . nick : no , uh , it 's not just about sage , uh , sandy . i 'd like to talk about us . dr. anderson : um , okay . let me , uh , let me wrap this up and i 'll be on my way . um , hey , uh , can you follow me ? i need some help with the patient . sure , dr. anderson . dr. anderson : thanks . sage , this is the test . try not to overthink it . just write down your honest responses and leave it on my desk . um , chris will escort you to your room . sage : you are n't staying ? dr. anderson : uh , no . i actually have an appointment i have to run out for . but i 'll check on you later . okay . thanks . sage : bye . [ door closes ] neil : so i heard that , uh , hilary did n't sign the divorce papers . devon : you spoke to her ? neil : yeah , briefly . i did . devon , it 's a good sign . devon : no . maybe she 's just hedging her bets and keeping me on the line in case things do n't work out with you . neil : that 's impossible , because things ca n't work out with her . and i already made it clear to her that we do n't have a future together . devon : did you ? so , what ? you sleep with her , you reject her , and then i 'm the backup plan ? neil : i 'm not even gon na answer you on that one . do you understand that those papers were a great reality check for her ? it made her think about what she really wants . devon : ever since we found her , all she 's wanted is you . neil : you 've forgotten that she lost her memory . she 's been confused about everything . i believe that she has deep feelings for you . do n't shut her out , okay ? i want you to talk to her . devon : i think i 'm done talking about this with you , 'cause we 're here to save a marriage that actually has a chance right now . neil : you know what ? michael : hey , guys . lily : hi ! lauren : nice to see you . lily : hi , everyone . welcome . devon : happy anniversary , guys . lily : yeah , happy anniversary . hi . good to see you , too . jill : ohh . this is so beautiful . how lovely these flowers are and the champagne . thank you for doing this for us . lily : of course . jill : is n't that nice of her , colin ? colin : hmm ? oh , oh ! yeah . lily : i was happy to do it for you . lauren : well , why do n't we have some drinks ? jill : oh , lovely . lauren : here we go , neil . your sparkling water . neil : my water . lauren : perfect . champagne for you ? lily : yes , please . of course . we 're celebrating , right ? [ chuckles ] michael : yes , we are . cane : hey . lily : hi . jill : contact has been made . on to phase two . hilary : i did n't want this . i tried so hard . but you 're always there . in my mind . in my dreams . i did everything i could to stop myself from running and finding you and telling you that ... i love you . devon : i love you more than i ever thought was possible . and i can not imagine my life without you in it . devon : i notice you ca n't stop staring at my sister . cane : well , i never said i stopped caring for her , so ... devon : i think it goes a little deeper than that . when 's the last time you guys were together without the kids ? cane : it 's been awhile . devon : 'cause you 're trying to keep your distance ? it seems like , uh , from where i 'm standing , keeping your distance is n't helping very much . cane : [ chuckles ] devon : just an observation i 'm making . you know , you ca n't stay frozen in time forever , cane . believe me . i know that . [ cell phone vibrates ] cane : you know what ? uh , you should get that . excuse me . neil : something wrong ? devon : hilary wants to see me . neil : oh . well , go . go on . this could change everything . devon : about what ? neil : the rest of us will handle things here . go on . devon : hey , excuse me . sorry . i 'm gon na have to take off , but i just want to say happy anniversary . jill : oh , thank you . thank you for everything . devon : of course . of course . good to see you guys . lauren : bye , sweetie . devon : see you . jill : so ... [ clears throat ] where was i ? michael : in hong kong with tucker . lauren : yeah , he would n't climb up to the buddha . jill : oh , that 's right . and nothing i could say would change his mind . he just would not do it . and then from across the room , this woman with white hair , she looked a little bit like katherine , screams out , `` my prayers have been answered ! `` apparently all the way from tulsa , she 'd been dreaming about this big blond hunk of masculinity would help her up the 260 stairs and back down again . [ chuckling ] so she grabs poor tucker , then he escorts her up 260 stairs and back down . i thought the man 's legs would fall off . neil : all that way ? jill : yes . it was ridiculous .

meg : what ? and if i did , are you going to arrange that too ? craig : so , you want a fight . why ? meg : why do you always need to be a step ahead of me ! craig : it 's not just you . meg : then stop ! i do n't need your permission to get an annulment , to keep the corporation , to pick my own charities -- craig : okay , we are really just splitting hairs . meg : this is important to me ! i do n't want you condescending me , seducing me , indulging me -- craig : come on -- you 've got ta let me have a little fun ! meg : so your making me think that i 'm calling all the shots so you get exactly what you want ? craig : absolutely . meg : you 're not even denying that ? craig : why would i ? meg : what do you get out of this ? craig : i am hoping to get out of this the same thing i was hoping to get the day that i asked you to marry me . i want your trust . i want love . i want family , future -- meg : even after everything that 's happened between us ? craig : all right , yes , there were painful moments , but we have learned . we are both capable of extremes . meg : craig , i told you i hated you ! craig : and there is great passion in that ! meg : and love does n't come out of that if that 's what you 're tellingúyourself -- craig : i do n't want to predict love . you can not predict love ! who could 've predicted that after all the hell that you and i have been through , i would still be in love with you ? and i am ! paul : what 's the reason for you not calling meg ? barbara : maybe i -- maybe i 'm not willing to share you . just for a few days . paul : that 's the only reason ? barbara : let me be grateful that you 're alive , paul . i 'm not ready to be nice to the people that i hold responsible for this . paul : you blame meg ? did craig hurt her ? did craig hurt her ? is that why you do n't want to call her ? barbara : meg is fine . paul : well then i want to talk to her . barbara : honey , let it go for now , okay ? please , paul ? paul : no . something 's wrong . something 's wrong . barbara : no , no . paul , sit . paul : something 's wrong . and if you do n't want to tell me what it is , i can figure it out for myself . barbara : paul , lie down , lay down . you 've got obal paul : let go of me . nurse : you need to lie down , mr . ryan . paul : i need to make a phone call . dr. voss : you sustained multiple serious injuries -- all requiring surgery . unless you help us help you , you will injure yourself further . barbara : please listen to him paul . dr. voss : please do n't force us to sedate you . paul : okay . i 'll stay in the bed . but you need to tell me when you 're gon na release me . dr. voss : i ca n't tell you that yet . i need to run a c.a.t . scan and an mri . and i need to know you will cooperate . barbara : he will , i promise . i 'll talk to him . dr. voss : i 'll check back later . barbara : are you trying to kill yourself ? paul : mom , i swear -- i will drag myself out of this bed and i 'll get a taxi and i 'll get on an airplane unless you tell me what 's going on with meg . barbara : she 's living with him . paul : no . barbara : you think she 's grieving for you , but she 's sleeping with the man who tried to murder you . paul : no . when craig found out , meg did whatever she had to do to protect us , but not now , not afterward . not after i fell . barbara : she 's living with him , paul . i would n't have believed it either , but i saw it with my own eyes . meg : you love me . even after i led you on and planned to run away moments after we said our vows ? craig : i admit , i do n't want to revisit those memories . meg : do you remember our engagement dinner ? you wanted to share the good news with my family , end the rift ? craig : oh please , can we not do this now ? meg : i knew you had a genuine affection for me , and i used that against you . i used half truths to hide an enormous lie i was constructing -- and all along , i wanted you to believe you had the upper hand . craig : so what ? so i did the same thing to you , did n't i ? it does n't matter . you know me . we know each other . for better or worse , you know me . you have gotten inside of my head . you have gotten inside of my heart like nobody else ever has . meg : and i took that heart and i threw it right back at you . how could you love somebody that hurt you that way ? craig : how could you ? margo : look , it 's not so much what jack said that worries me . it isúcarly . because she 's going through an extremely stressful time right now . and if she feels that you 're getting too close , she 's gon na strike . and she 's gon na make it hurt . katie : so what do i do ? margo : just what you 're doing . just stay away and let jack focus on finding j.j . katie : i ca n't do that . i 'll feel like i 'm abandoning him . margo : well , i 'm sure that he wo n't see it that way . katie : if i was in the hospital , i would want him there holding my hand . margo : no , no , no . this is jack 's child . jack 's child is missing . he 's going to focus just on that . so if you stay away , it 's possible -- it 's possible that carly wo n't feel she has to stake a claim every time you 're getting to close to jack . [ katie scoffs ] cop # 2 : someone here to see you about j.j. snyder , lieutenant . margo : great , great . see there ? i 'll be right there . i 'll be right there . please , do n't get discouraged . you know , a little patience goes a long way . katie : i hope so . just let me know anything you hear about j.j. , okay ? anything at all . margo : i 'm sure that jack will call you himself . henry : katie , hey , i was just about to call you . how 's jack ? katie : he 's doing okay from what i hear . henry : you have n't seen him ? katie : no , considering carly 's guarding his bed like a mad dog , i think it 's best this way . henry : whoa , whoa , you 're letting carly be the gatekeeper here ? that 's not like you . katie : i 'm trying not to be me . henry : who are you trying to be ? katie : some quiet , patient , selfless wimp . henry : wow , that is -- that 's going to change , okay ? now , i need a martini and you need someone to knock some sense into you . let 's go . margo : so , i understand that you may be able to help us find j.j. snyder . mel : are you going to tape this ? margo : no , no . mel : good . because , um -- whoa , this is kind of scary . margo : oh , this is your first time in a police station ? mel : almost did n't come . margo : well , just relax . mel , is it ? mel : short for melissa . margo : oh , good . so anything you tell us will be helpful . mel : okay . this the thing -- i know that coming forward may be the right thing to do , but it 's kind of the wrong thing for me . you know what i mean ? margo : no , i have n't a clue . do you know someone that is involved with the abduction of j.j. snyder ? mel : no . no , i don't . it 's just -- well , i was supposed to be at work when all of this was happening , butúi wasn't . and if my boyfriend knew i was lying to him -- margo : could you just tell me what you saw ? mel : sure . i saw the boy -- j.j. -- the one who was kidnapped . carly : let me do the talking , okay ? lily : i do n't want to lie to holden . carly : i know . you wo n't have to . it was my idea . let me take the heat for it . jack : they ca n't have drifted too far -- they still do n't have what they want . carly : actually , they do have what they want . jack : you mean , j.j. ? carly : i mean the money . jack : what ? carly : i paid it , jack . i paid the ransom . intimidation tactics workekail . e n't going to make me afraid . it 's a gthreats in the you arwhich e the power of veto on myself.~ jack : please -- please tell me i heard you wrong . carly : i was desperate to get j.j. back . i was so scared , jack . frightened that if they did n't get what -- jack : i do n't believe this . i really don't . dallas : did you make the drop yourself ? carly : yeah , like they asked . jack : meaning you did this yesterday ? carly : yes . dallas : did you see them pick it up ? carly : i saw a woman -- but i did n't get a good look . jack : when were you going to tell me this ? hell , i walked into a setup ! carly : i did n't know , jack . they were supposed to take the money and leave . we should 've gotten j.j. back . i 'm sorry . dallas : i got ta get back to the station . fill margo in . jack : did n't i make it clear -- did n't i make it clear that paying the ransom was not the way to go ? that it could get j.j. hurt , huh ? that keeping the kidnappers waiting for a payoff was our only leverage ? carly : yes , i know . i just thought -- jack : you thought that you knew better , right ? and where did you come up with the money , anyway ? carly : does that even matter ? i did what i thought i had to do and it did n't work . jack : right . and the hell with the rest of us . holden : you know what ? we 're going to give you guys some time to work this out . lily : and call if you need anything , anything . jack : do you have any idea -- the people who took j.j. could be miles away from here by now . with or without him . carly : they were supposed to give him back . jack : they did n't give him back though , did they ? carly , you could have put him at even greater risk . and you could 've gotten me killed . carly : do n't say that . i would intentionally put you in danger , jack . how could i ? i love you . katie : but henry , he said , `` i love you , carly . `` henry : she 's the mother of his kids . katie : you think that 's what he meant ? henry : i think it means she 's going to be in his life whether we like it or not . how many times were they married and remarried ? katie : not making me feel better . henry : then you 're not listening , sweetheart . because no matter how many times jack and carly were married , it could n't last . katie : the marriages did n't last . but what about the feelings ? those probably still go on . i mean , look at you and vienna . henry : do n't look at me and vienna . we do n't want to get married . jack does . and he would n't have proposed if he had any doubts . katie : do you think i 'm making too much of this ? jack : i think he was trapped under some beams , probably having a near death experience -- yes , let it go . katie : okay , i 'm just going to follow margo 's advice then , and step back -- henry : no -- no , i do n't agree with that . i do n't think you should crowd him , but he needs to stay strong . and for that , i think he needs you , not carly . katie : i hope so . but i just ca n't help but wonder if saying carly 's name was a symptom of something deeper , you know , that he 's trying to ignore . like maybe , he will never love anyone like he loves her . and she 's the one he really wants to be with . jack : i think he already loves you more . i get that you 're scared , okay ? and no one understands the risk of love better than i do . yeah , you might get your heart broken , but sweetie , if you love jack -- i mean , if you really love jack , you 've got to take that risk . otherwise , it 's going to haunt you for the rest of your life . craig : you mourn paul , you romanticize him , but he did unforgivable things to you . craig : oh , no , no , no , see -- he 's gone now . so you only remember the good part . why do n't you remember how he made you lie to jennifer about her baby ? how about how he lied to you about emily ? how about how his vendetta against me -- meg : and i forgave him for that . he did some bad things , it 's true . but what you do n't understand is that he was always trying to do the right thing . not trying to score points for himself . craig : oh , i could argue that one . meg : well , do n't bother . when i was with paul , the future was brighter , everything was sweeter . and when he died , it all changed for me . craig : except your feelings for him . meg : yes . craig : i can accept that you ca n't let paul go -- i can accept that he is a part of your life , but just now -- when i was holding you and when i was kissing you , we both know that paul ryan was the last thing on your mind . paul : no , no , she 's not with craig . it 's just -- that 's not -- that 's not possible . barbara : from the moment that you were lost , he never left her side . he was there , consoling her . he even insisted that he tried to save you from falling -- paul : meg would n't believe that . barbara : i do n't know what she believes . she barely spoke to anyone after the accident . and he was right there , playing the hero . even financed the search party . paul : that 's -- that 's sick . barbara : well he knew that 's what she wanted . and then when she finally agreed to go home , he made sure that she ended up at his house . i 'm not sure she even fought the idea . and he has been glued to her side ever since . i did n't even know the extent of it until he showed up at my place for the memorial service for you . playing the protective husband , even though he promised an annulment . paul : why would -- why would meg let him anywhere near her ? barbara : i do n't know . i know this is hard to hear , but you 're not the only one she betrayed . paul : what are you talking about ? barbara : once they were married and craig gave worldwide to meg , she was supposed to give it back to lucinda , right ? paul : yeah . barbara : well , she 's decided to stay on and run it . with craig as her mentor . paul : but that 's just business -- you just said that craig agreed to an annulment , the marriage -- the marriage is over . barbara : i do n't know that it is . i do n't know that she filed papers -- paul : of course she did . barbara : then why is she living at fairwinds ? they were together at the snyder farm , too . paul : doing what ? barbara : you do n't want to know -- paul : no , i do -- tell me . barbara : i saw them in an intimate moment . paul : no . no , meg -- no , meg wouldn't . she -- give me your phone . barbara : no . paul : give me your cell phone . mom , give it to me now -- barbara : i 'm not sure she 'll pick up , paul . paul : it 's not her i 'm calling . maid : montgomery residence . paul : i 'd like to talk to meg . meg please . maid : i 'm sorry . she 's not here right now . paul : um , do you know when she 'll be back ? maid : mr. and mrs . montgomery are gone for the day . paul : look , this is kind of urgent . think you can tell me where they are ? maid : try the snyder farm . they spent the night there . today marks a sombre anniversary for our city - we 'll show you how edmontonians are paying tribute . and we 'll share the stories of edmontonians caught in the storm - you 'll meet families who lost loved ones and hear from emergency workers who came to the rescue on that haunting day . join us for a special presentation of the news hour at six . eric : i really hope that you under ; i 'm a million miles away looking for a place to land . great big sea . kevin : we could n't agree more . as you see every night . making the world make sense . global national . news understood . barbara : i 'm sorry , honey . i really did n't want you to be burdened with this right now . paul : i saw it , mom . barbara : you saw something between meg and craig ? paul : i had a dream right before i woke up . and i was trying to get to meg . i was trying to talk to her . every time i got close , craig was there . and then -- barbara : what ? paul : rosanna was there . barbara : rosanna ? paul : yeah . i think she was there because she and i were in the same place . we were both caught somewhere between life and death . barbara : did she say anything to you ? paul : she said i should get back to my life . and i thought that meant getting back to meg . that i could get back to loving meg . barbara : you have loved meg long enough -- paul : she ca n't be with him . it does n't make any sense . she loves me . barbara : things happen . people change . paul : they do n't change that much , mom . barbara : you know what ? i 'm going to get you out of here , okay ? get you home where i can take care of you . i 'm going to talk to dr . voss and see if we can get a medical release and hire a private jet and take you back home tomorrow . paul : no . i 'm not going home with you , mom . meg : it 's true . paul was the last thing on my mind when i kissed you . but if he walked through that door right now , i would fall right into his arms and never look back . and you need to accept that . craig : i do . but he is not walking through that door , is he ? or any other door and that is something that you need to accept . meg : i think you should go . craig : i think i should stay , at least until we hear about j.j. see if there 's something else i can do . meg : no , you know what ? i think we could handle it . craig : why are you doing this meg ? why are you asking me to leave when that is the last thing you want me to do ? lily : the thing is , carly thinks like a mother . jack thinks like a cop . he has every right to be angry with her , but she was just trying to save j.j . i remember when luke was missing , i would have done anything to get him back . holden : lily , do n't make excuses for her . she went behind jack 's back at a time when they needed to be to working together . and this is n't over yet . how 's he supposed to trust her from this point on ? lily : i 'm sure if carly had thought things through a little longer , she would n't have paid the ransom . holden : i 'm just surprised she was able to get the cash . 100 grand -- lily : yup . holden : that 's a lot of money . lily : sure is . it 's a lot of money . holden : so where do you think she got it ? margo : dallas ? dallas griffin is one of the officers who is helping us to locate j.j . he could have some questions for you as well . mel : and he can be trusted ? margo : yes . yes , he can . now , you saw j.j. -- mel : it was yesterday . he was being shoved into a car . i gave you the make and model . margo : yes , you did . and that was very helpful . mel : but like i said , i should n't have seen it . because i should n't have been there . i should have been at work . margo : i understand that . i 've got all of that . now , when you saw j.j . being shoved into the car , did you overhear him saying anything ? was there any sign of a struggle ? mel : he looked scared . ducking -- it was as if he was afraid he was going to be hit . and i recognize that look because my little brother had it every time daddy came after him with a belt . dallas : let 's stay with j.j. what you saw could save this boy 's life . even the smallest things are important . margo : now , who did you see shoving him in the car ? mel : it was a woman . they were sitting there waiting and she looked kind of nervous -- anxious . then a man jumped in the car and they took off right after the explosion . margo : all right , could you give us a description -- a height , weight -- hair color ? mel : the woman was thin , about 5 ' 4 `` . long brown hair . and the man was a bigger build , around 6 ' maybe , dark hair , full beard . and i already told you about the car . margo : did you see the license plate ? mel : i only got the letters . bmc -- i remember them because those are my boyfriend 's initials . which only made me feel guiltier about being there , because i was with someone else . margo : all right , all right , this is all very , very , very helpful . thank you so much and i just have to ask you if you will stop and see the sketch artist before you leave . and you tell him everything that you just told us . ñ > mel : well , okay . as long as it would n't take long . margo : no , it would n't take long . and you have done your community a great service . this is just between us , okay ? dallas -- dallas : yeah -- margo : here , i want you to run a check on the license plate and the vehicle and get back to me as you as possible . cop # 2 : i 'm on it . margo : oh , we have a description . dallas : yeah , i 've got something too , but you 're not going to be happy about it . margo : oh , go ahead , make my day . dallas : carly paid the ransom . margo : no , she did not -- what is she thinking ? did n't jack tell her that that was the wrong thing to do -- dallas : he told her -- margo : of course he did . he told her , but she didn'túpay an attention , did she ? no , because she 's carly and why should she change now ? carly : please , jack , i did n't mean to make this harder for you or for you to be hurt . and god knows i did n't mean to put j.j. 's life in danger . jack : no , i 'm sorry . i blame myself . i should n't have included you in any of this . carly : no , do n't say that . we have to work together to get j.j. back . jack : you 're willing to work with me now ? i do n't even know how to respond . carly : what 's important here is j.j. and we have a better chance of getting him back if we work togethern just like we did when we found parker in chicago . jack : you did n't go behind my back then . carly : i will do whatever you want me to do . jack : okay , stop . just stop . i ca n't -- i ca n't listen to this . you 're right about one thing , though . j.j. is all that matters . carly : then you forgive me ? jack : i need some time alone to think about my next move . can you give me that ? carly : yeah . i 'll be out in the hall . well , if you 're here to tell jack that i paid the ransom , i already told him . katie : i was n't going to . carly : and he forgave me . he understood that i 'm just trying to protect our family . katie : the answer is yes . yes , i 'll marry you because i love you . i love you so much . jack : i love you too , carly . hey , katie . katie , do n't go . meagen : `` a miracle happened and i survived one of the biggest tornadoes . `` sara : `` he was a good dad from what we can remember . `` judy : `` even twenty years later i can remember the feeling . `` lynda : a black friday special presentation tonight on the news hour . . . . . . . . they know the city of champions - inside and out . when you need to know , you know where to turn . gord steinke and lynda steele . the news hour - weeknights at 6 , only on global edmonton . our city . our news . . . . . meg : you think you 've got me pegged , that you know what i want before i do . craig : i just do n't see any point keeping up a pretense . meg : then tell me craig . tell me what is it i want . craig : you need me . you have admitted it . and i have admitted i 'm in love with you . that is a lot to build on . meg : not if you still refuse to face the fact that i love paul . craig : paul is dead . it is just the two of us . it 's just you and me . and maybe that 's something you need to face . barbara : you need to come home and be with your family . that 's what 's going to help you recover . paul : not yet mom . barbara : paul , please do n't stay away from us because of meg and craig . paul : i think i just need a little time , that 's all . barbara : okay . and i 'll stay here with you until you 're stronger . paul : no . you should go , because i think i need to stay dead a little longer . barbara : i 'm not going to leave you here in the hospital . you 've only been awake a couple of hours . paul : long enough for me to know exactly what it is i have to do . barbara : okay , then let me help you . paul : you want to help me ? keep quiet . do n't let anybody know that i 'm alive , especially not meg . barbara : you have me at quite a disadvantage , you know ? i 'm just so happy i have you back , i ca n't say no to anything . paul : so i have your word ? barbara : you have my word . lily : carly 's a very resourceful woman . especially when it comes to her children . look what she did to get back to her kids here . sneaking into the country , avoiding the cops -- holden : i agree . she can be very resourceful when she need to be . but this time , all she had to do was ask . lily : what do you mean ? holden : what i mean is , she got the money from you , did n't she ? katie : hey . how are you feeling ? jack : i 'm better now that you 're here . katie : i wanted to give you a little time with your family . jack : yeah , well , when i woke up -- stop that . stop , when i woke up and you were n't here , i got worried . katie : i 've been going out of my mind . i think i 've called this hospital every ten minutes . seeing you on the ground like that , i just -- my heart dropped . jack : yeah , i 'm fine now . katie : j.j. -- thank god , he got out of there . if anything had happened to him . jack : they cleared out before the explosion . katie : do you remember anything ? jack : i remember that you were the last person i talked to before they put me in the ambulance . then i must 've -- must have passed out . katie : yeah , you were barely conscious . jack : did i say anything to you ? anything you -- i do n't know , anything important ? i love you , too , carly . katie : you said i love you . jack : that 's it ? katie : yeah , that 's it . jack : well , that 's important enough to me . come here . announcer : on the next `` as the world turns . `` noah : why would i waste time with my dad when i can spend time with you ?

paul : you did n't tell her . she 'd be here with you . barbara : there was n't time . i caught the first flight i could get . i had to get here to talk to the doctors to see you . to really believe that you 're alive . paul : that 's okay . but you should tell her now . barbara : honey , we do n't really know what kind of recovery you 're going to be facing . you were badly hurt . you have a massive infection . paul : not the first time . barbara : that 's what i told the doctors -- that you would show us a miracle . and you have . thank god . paul : mom . mom , you need to tell her now , okay ? she 's waiting for me and you need to tell her that we can be together . barbara : honey , dr . voss said it could take weeks for you to recover . paul : meg will take care of that . barbara : i do n't think she can give you what you need right now . paul : can we call her ? barbara : soon . paul : i really want to talk to her . barbara : soon -- paul : no , now- i do n't want to wait . she must be so unhappy . barbara : honey , i do n't want you worrying about meg right now , okay ? paul : something 's going on . what 's the real reason you do n't want to call meg ? margo : what ? that 's it ? that 's all we have after issuing an amber alert on j.j. snyder ? dallas : that 's everything . margo : that 's not much to go on . dallas : no , i did the follow - up . it was two dead ends . margo : well , just stick with it . someone will spot him soon . dallas : thanks , i 'll head over to the hospital . jack had a little time to look around before the explosion . maybe by now he 'll remember something that can help us out . margo : great . let 's hope so . dallas : hey , katie . katie : hey , dallas . margo : hey , hey ! any word on jack ? katie : no , i was going to ask you that . margo : well , i thought you 'd be at the hospital with him ever since they brought him in ? in fact , why are n't you there now with him ? katie : after last night , i think i 'm the last person that jack wants to see . carly : hi . jack : hey , carly . how long have i been out ? carly : since last night -- since the ambulance brought you here . be careful . jack : ohh -- carly : all right . let me help you , okay ? jack : oh -- ahh -- what 's with my side ? carly : four broken ribs . jack : oh , man . feels like 100 . what else ? carly : a concussion . stitches on the back of your head . bruises . jack : so nothing serious ? carly : well , i think a concussion is serious . i will tell the nurses you 're awake , okay ? they probably want to run so tests . jack : any news on j.j. ? carly : not yet . jack : what about the other -- the other kids , sage and parker , do they know what happened ? carly : lily and holden are bringing them here now . jack : i hope you told tm that i 'm okay . they 've got enough to worry about with j.j. being gone . carly : i have n't seen them . i needed to be here when you woke up . i ed to see you 're okay . i 'll let margo know you 're awake . is there anything else you need ? jack : yeah . where 's katie ? why is n't she here ? jack : did you say something to katie ? carly : like what ? jack : oh , i do n't know -- did you make her feel like she should n't be here ? carly : no , jack , most of the time i 've been focused on being grateful that you 'd live . and the rest of the time , i 've been focused on the fact that j.j. is still missing . jack : i guess we have n't heard from the kidnappers or you would 've said something . carly : no . but they certainly made their point with that explosion . and now that i know the lengths they 'll go to , i 'm even more afraid for j.j . jack : no . they still have n't gotten the money they 're after . so do n't worry , they 'll still protect j.j . it would n't make sense if they did n't -- holden : hey , you up for some visitors ? jack : hey ! just who i wanted to see . sage : daddy ! jack : be careful be careful , be careful . parker : hey , jack , you okay ? jack : i will be buddy . parker : when we heard what happened to you -- it just sucks , you know . j.j . needs you . we all need you . jack : i 'll be okay . sage : daddy , parker said sucks . you said we could n't say it -- jack : it 's okay . i 'll give him a pass this one time , okay ? sage : then can i say it too ? jack : absolutely not . you can say stinks . thank you . lily : jack looks better than i thought he would . carly : yeah , yeah , he does . lily : did you tell him that you paid the ransom ? carly : no , i was just about to when you and holden came in with the kids . have you talked to holden yet ? lily : no , no , no ! i was waiting to hear from you . carly : well , good , then don't . because maybe you wo n't have to tell him at all . lily : what ? holden : okay guys , let 's go ! carly : is everything all right ? is jack okay ? holden : yeah , he seems to think that he 's going to be released . carly : already ? holden : yeah . i 'm going to take the kids to meet up with gwen and will -- i 'll be back . lily : okay . carly : okay , listen to me now . you be good . and you be careful and you take care of each other , okay ? parker : mom -- chill . carly : no one else gets hurt , okay ? parker : okay . holden : let 's go . lily : what did you mean when you said that i might not have to tell holden about the ransom -- hi . dallas : how 's the patient ? carly : he 's awake . any news on j.j. ? dallas : no , nothing . but jack 's dealt with situations like this before . he 's going to have ideas on how to continue the search . lily : we have got to tell jack what we did so they can have a plan . you know what ? i 'm going to do the talking . carly : no , no ! no . lily please , please do n't do that . meg : what 's this ? another chapter in the perfect gentleman by craig montgomery ? craig : would you prefer that i grope you ? meg : i 'd prefer you admit what you 're really up to . craig : i do n't want you to feel pressured about this . meg : because you care about me or because it 's good technique ? craig : i 'm trying to be considerate . why do i have to defend myself ? meg : oh , here 's a reason -- we 've already established the fact that you manipulated me into keeping lucinda 's corporation . craig : oh , no , no , no . that was your decision . ultimately . meg : which was carefully orchestrated by you . you and your laid back approach . craig : i 'm thorough . what can i say ? meg : you think if you give me more space , your chances of getting what you want are greater . craig : i do what works . so sue me . meg : it 's wearing a little thin . craig : what ? you want to have an argument now ? meg : what ? and if i did , are you going to arrange that too ? craig : so , you want a fight . why ? meg : why do you always need to be a step ahead of me ! craig : it 's not just you . meg : then stop ! i do n't need your permission to get an annulment , to keep the corporation , to pick my own charities -- craig : okay , we are really just splitting hairs . meg : this is important to me ! i do n't want you condescending me , seducing me , indulging me -- craig : come on -- you 've got ta let me have a little fun ! meg : so your making me think that i 'm calling all the shots so you get exactly what you want ? craig : absolutely . meg : you 're not even denying that ? craig : why would i ? meg : what do you get out of this ? craig : i am hoping to get out of this the same thing i was hoping to get the day that i asked you to marry me . i want your trust . i want love . i want family , future -- meg : even after everything that 's happened between us ? craig : all right , yes , there were painful moments , but we have learned . we are both capable of extremes . meg : craig , i told you i hated you ! craig : and there is great passion in that ! meg : and love does n't come out of that if that 's what you 're tellingúyourself -- craig : i do n't want to predict love . you can not predict love ! who could 've predicted that after all the hell that you and i have been through , i would still be in love with you ? and i am ! paul : what 's the reason for you not calling meg ? barbara : maybe i -- maybe i 'm not willing to share you . just for a few days . paul : that 's the only reason ? barbara : let me be grateful that you 're alive , paul . i 'm not ready to be nice to the people that i hold responsible for this . paul : you blame meg ? did craig hurt her ? did craig hurt her ? is that why you do n't want to call her ? barbara : meg is fine . paul : well then i want to talk to her . barbara : honey , let it go for now , okay ? please , paul ? paul : no . something 's wrong . something 's wrong . barbara : no , no . paul , sit . paul : something 's wrong . and if you do n't want to tell me what it is , i can figure it out for myself . barbara : paul , lie down , lay down . you 've got obal paul : let go of me . nurse : you need to lie down , mr . ryan . paul : i need to make a phone call . dr. voss : you sustained multiple serious injuries -- all requiring surgery . unless you help us help you , you will injure yourself further . barbara : please listen to him paul . dr. voss : please do n't force us to sedate you . paul : okay . i 'll stay in the bed . but you need to tell me when you 're gon na release me . dr. voss : i ca n't tell you that yet . i need to run a c.a.t . scan and an mri . and i need to know you will cooperate . barbara : he will , i promise . i 'll talk to him . dr. voss : i 'll check back later . barbara : are you trying to kill yourself ? paul : mom , i swear -- i will drag myself out of this bed and i 'll get a taxi and i 'll get on an airplane unless you tell me what 's going on with meg . barbara : she 's living with him . paul : no . barbara : you think she 's grieving for you , but she 's sleeping with the man who tried to murder you . paul : no . when craig found out , meg did whatever she had to do to protect us , but not now , not afterward . not after i fell . barbara : she 's living with him , paul . i would n't have believed it either , but i saw it with my own eyes . meg : you love me . even after i led you on and planned to run away moments after we said our vows ? craig : i admit , i do n't want to revisit those memories . meg : do you remember our engagement dinner ? you wanted to share the good news with my family , end the rift ? craig : oh please , can we not do this now ? meg : i knew you had a genuine affection for me , and i used that against you . i used half truths to hide an enormous lie i was constructing -- and all along , i wanted you to believe you had the upper hand . craig : so what ? so i did the same thing to you , did n't i ? it does n't matter . you know me . we know each other . for better or worse , you know me . you have gotten inside of my head . you have gotten inside of my heart like nobody else ever has . meg : and i took that heart and i threw it right back at you . how could you love somebody that hurt you that way ? craig : how could you ? margo : look , it 's not so much what jack said that worries me . it isúcarly . because she 's going through an extremely stressful time right now . and if she feels that you 're getting too close , she 's gon na strike . and she 's gon na make it hurt . katie : so what do i do ? margo : just what you 're doing . just stay away and let jack focus on finding j.j . katie : i ca n't do that . i 'll feel like i 'm abandoning him . margo : well , i 'm sure that he wo n't see it that way . katie : if i was in the hospital , i would want him there holding my hand . margo : no , no , no . this is jack 's child . jack 's child is missing . he 's going to focus just on that . so if you stay away , it 's possible -- it 's possible that carly wo n't feel she has to stake a claim every time you 're getting to close to jack . [ katie scoffs ] cop # 2 : someone here to see you about j.j. snyder , lieutenant . margo : great , great . see there ? i 'll be right there . i 'll be right there . please , do n't get discouraged . you know , a little patience goes a long way . katie : i hope so . just let me know anything you hear about j.j. , okay ? anything at all . margo : i 'm sure that jack will call you himself . henry : katie , hey , i was just about to call you . how 's jack ? katie : he 's doing okay from what i hear . henry : you have n't seen him ? katie : no , considering carly 's guarding his bed like a mad dog , i think it 's best this way . henry : whoa , whoa , you 're letting carly be the gatekeeper here ? that 's not like you . katie : i 'm trying not to be me . henry : who are you trying to be ? katie : some quiet , patient , selfless wimp . henry : wow , that is -- that 's going to change , okay ? now , i need a martini and you need someone to knock some sense into you . let 's go . margo : so , i understand that you may be able to help us find j.j. snyder . mel : are you going to tape this ? margo : no , no . mel : good . because , um -- whoa , this is kind of scary . margo : oh , this is your first time in a police station ? mel : almost did n't come . margo : well , just relax . mel , is it ? mel : short for melissa . margo : oh , good . so anything you tell us will be helpful . mel : okay . this the thing -- i know that coming forward may be the right thing to do , but it 's kind of the wrong thing for me . you know what i mean ? margo : no , i have n't a clue . do you know someone that is involved with the abduction of j.j. snyder ? mel : no . no , i don't . it 's just -- well , i was supposed to be at work when all of this was happening , butúi wasn't . and if my boyfriend knew i was lying to him -- margo : could you just tell me what you saw ? mel : sure . i saw the boy -- j.j. -- the one who was kidnapped . carly : let me do the talking , okay ? lily : i do n't want to lie to holden . carly : i know . you wo n't have to . it was my idea . let me take the heat for it . jack : they ca n't have drifted too far -- they still do n't have what they want . carly : actually , they do have what they want . jack : you mean , j.j. ? carly : i mean the money . jack : what ? carly : i paid it , jack . i paid the ransom . intimidation tactics workekail . e n't going to make me afraid . it 's a gthreats in the you arwhich e the power of veto on myself.~ jack : please -- please tell me i heard you wrong . carly : i was desperate to get j.j. back . i was so scared , jack . frightened that if they did n't get what -- jack : i do n't believe this . i really don't . dallas : did you make the drop yourself ? carly : yeah , like they asked . jack : meaning you did this yesterday ? carly : yes . dallas : did you see them pick it up ? carly : i saw a woman -- but i did n't get a good look . jack : when were you going to tell me this ? hell , i walked into a setup ! carly : i did n't know , jack . they were supposed to take the money and leave . we should 've gotten j.j. back . i 'm sorry . dallas : i got ta get back to the station . fill margo in . jack : did n't i make it clear -- did n't i make it clear that paying the ransom was not the way to go ? that it could get j.j. hurt , huh ? that keeping the kidnappers waiting for a payoff was our only leverage ? carly : yes , i know . i just thought -- jack : you thought that you knew better , right ? and where did you come up with the money , anyway ? carly : does that even matter ? i did what i thought i had to do and it did n't work . jack : right . and the hell with the rest of us . holden : you know what ? we 're going to give you guys some time to work this out . lily : and call if you need anything , anything . jack : do you have any idea -- the people who took j.j. could be miles away from here by now . with or without him . carly : they were supposed to give him back . jack : they did n't give him back though , did they ? carly , you could have put him at even greater risk . and you could 've gotten me killed . carly : do n't say that . i would intentionally put you in danger , jack . how could i ? i love you . katie : but henry , he said , `` i love you , carly . `` henry : she 's the mother of his kids . katie : you think that 's what he meant ? henry : i think it means she 's going to be in his life whether we like it or not . how many times were they married and remarried ? katie : not making me feel better . henry : then you 're not listening , sweetheart . because no matter how many times jack and carly were married , it could n't last . katie : the marriages did n't last . but what about the feelings ? those probably still go on . i mean , look at you and vienna . henry : do n't look at me and vienna . we do n't want to get married . jack does . and he would n't have proposed if he had any doubts . katie : do you think i 'm making too much of this ? jack : i think he was trapped under some beams , probably having a near death experience -- yes , let it go . katie : okay , i 'm just going to follow margo 's advice then , and step back -- henry : no -- no , i do n't agree with that . i do n't think you should crowd him , but he needs to stay strong . and for that , i think he needs you , not carly . katie : i hope so . but i just ca n't help but wonder if saying carly 's name was a symptom of something deeper , you know , that he 's trying to ignore . like maybe , he will never love anyone like he loves her . and she 's the one he really wants to be with . jack : i think he already loves you more . i get that you 're scared , okay ? and no one understands the risk of love better than i do . yeah , you might get your heart broken , but sweetie , if you love jack -- i mean , if you really love jack , you 've got to take that risk . otherwise , it 's going to haunt you for the rest of your life . craig : you mourn paul , you romanticize him , but he did unforgivable things to you . craig : oh , no , no , no , see -- he 's gone now . so you only remember the good part . why do n't you remember how he made you lie to jennifer about her baby ? how about how he lied to you about emily ? how about how his vendetta against me -- meg : and i forgave him for that . he did some bad things , it 's true . but what you do n't understand is that he was always trying to do the right thing . not trying to score points for himself . craig : oh , i could argue that one . meg : well , do n't bother . when i was with paul , the future was brighter , everything was sweeter . and when he died , it all changed for me . craig : except your feelings for him . meg : yes . craig : i can accept that you ca n't let paul go -- i can accept that he is a part of your life , but just now -- when i was holding you and when i was kissing you , we both know that paul ryan was the last thing on your mind . paul : no , no , she 's not with craig . it 's just -- that 's not -- that 's not possible . barbara : from the moment that you were lost , he never left her side . he was there , consoling her . he even insisted that he tried to save you from falling -- paul : meg would n't believe that . barbara : i do n't know what she believes . she barely spoke to anyone after the accident . and he was right there , playing the hero . even financed the search party . paul : that 's -- that 's sick . barbara : well he knew that 's what she wanted . and then when she finally agreed to go home , he made sure that she ended up at his house . i 'm not sure she even fought the idea . and he has been glued to her side ever since . i did n't even know the extent of it until he showed up at my place for the memorial service for you . playing the protective husband , even though he promised an annulment . paul : why would -- why would meg let him anywhere near her ? barbara : i do n't know . i know this is hard to hear , but you 're not the only one she betrayed . paul : what are you talking about ? barbara : once they were married and craig gave worldwide to meg , she was supposed to give it back to lucinda , right ? paul : yeah . barbara : well , she 's decided to stay on and run it . with craig as her mentor . paul : but that 's just business -- you just said that craig agreed to an annulment , the marriage -- the marriage is over . barbara : i do n't know that it is . i do n't know that she filed papers -- paul : of course she did . barbara : then why is she living at fairwinds ? they were together at the snyder farm , too . paul : doing what ? barbara : you do n't want to know -- paul : no , i do -- tell me . barbara : i saw them in an intimate moment . paul : no . no , meg -- no , meg wouldn't . she -- give me your phone . barbara : no . paul : give me your cell phone . mom , give it to me now -- barbara : i 'm not sure she 'll pick up , paul . paul : it 's not her i 'm calling . maid : montgomery residence . paul : i 'd like to talk to meg . meg please . maid : i 'm sorry . she 's not here right now . paul : um , do you know when she 'll be back ? maid : mr. and mrs . montgomery are gone for the day . paul : look , this is kind of urgent . think you can tell me where they are ? maid : try the snyder farm . they spent the night there . today marks a sombre anniversary for our city - we 'll show you how edmontonians are paying tribute . and we 'll share the stories of edmontonians caught in the storm - you 'll meet families who lost loved ones and hear from emergency workers who came to the rescue on that haunting day . join us for a special presentation of the news hour at six . eric : i really hope that you under ; i 'm a million miles away looking for a place to land . great big sea . kevin : we could n't agree more . as you see every night . making the world make sense . global national . news understood . barbara : i 'm sorry , honey . i really did n't want you to be burdened with this right now . paul : i saw it , mom . barbara : you saw something between meg and craig ? paul : i had a dream right before i woke up . and i was trying to get to meg . i was trying to talk to her . every time i got close , craig was there . and then -- barbara : what ? paul : rosanna was there . barbara : rosanna ? paul : yeah . i think she was there because she and i were in the same place . we were both caught somewhere between life and death . barbara : did she say anything to you ? paul : she said i should get back to my life . and i thought that meant getting back to meg . that i could get back to loving meg . barbara : you have loved meg long enough -- paul : she ca n't be with him . it does n't make any sense . she loves me . barbara : things happen . people change . paul : they do n't change that much , mom . barbara : you know what ? i 'm going to get you out of here , okay ? get you home where i can take care of you . i 'm going to talk to dr . voss and see if we can get a medical release and hire a private jet and take you back home tomorrow . paul : no . i 'm not going home with you , mom . meg : it 's true . paul was the last thing on my mind when i kissed you . but if he walked through that door right now , i would fall right into his arms and never look back . and you need to accept that . craig : i do . but he is not walking through that door , is he ? or any other door and that is something that you need to accept . meg : i think you should go . craig : i think i should stay , at least until we hear about j.j. see if there 's something else i can do . meg : no , you know what ? i think we could handle it . craig : why are you doing this meg ? why are you asking me to leave when that is the last thing you want me to do ? lily : the thing is , carly thinks like a mother . jack thinks like a cop . he has every right to be angry with her , but she was just trying to save j.j . i remember when luke was missing , i would have done anything to get him back . holden : lily , do n't make excuses for her . she went behind jack 's back at a time when they needed to be to working together . and this is n't over yet . how 's he supposed to trust her from this point on ? lily : i 'm sure if carly had thought things through a little longer , she would n't have paid the ransom . holden : i 'm just surprised she was able to get the cash . 100 grand -- lily : yup . holden : that 's a lot of money . lily : sure is . it 's a lot of money . holden : so where do you think she got it ? margo : dallas ? dallas griffin is one of the officers who is helping us to locate j.j . he could have some questions for you as well . mel : and he can be trusted ? margo : yes . yes , he can . now , you saw j.j. -- mel : it was yesterday . he was being shoved into a car . i gave you the make and model . margo : yes , you did . and that was very helpful . mel : but like i said , i should n't have seen it . because i should n't have been there . i should have been at work . margo : i understand that . i 've got all of that . now , when you saw j.j . being shoved into the car , did you overhear him saying anything ? was there any sign of a struggle ? mel : he looked scared . ducking -- it was as if he was afraid he was going to be hit . and i recognize that look because my little brother had it every time daddy came after him with a belt . dallas : let 's stay with j.j. what you saw could save this boy 's life . even the smallest things are important . margo : now , who did you see shoving him in the car ? mel : it was a woman . they were sitting there waiting and she looked kind of nervous -- anxious . then a man jumped in the car and they took off right after the explosion . margo : all right , could you give us a description -- a height , weight -- hair color ? mel : the woman was thin , about 5 ' 4 `` . long brown hair . and the man was a bigger build , around 6 ' maybe , dark hair , full beard . and i already told you about the car . margo : did you see the license plate ? mel : i only got the letters . bmc -- i remember them because those are my boyfriend 's initials . which only made me feel guiltier about being there , because i was with someone else . margo : all right , all right , this is all very , very , very helpful . thank you so much and i just have to ask you if you will stop and see the sketch artist before you leave . and you tell him everything that you just told us . ñ > mel : well , okay . as long as it would n't take long . margo : no , it would n't take long . and you have done your community a great service . this is just between us , okay ? dallas -- dallas : yeah -- margo : here , i want you to run a check on the license plate and the vehicle and get back to me as you as possible . cop # 2 : i 'm on it . margo : oh , we have a description . dallas : yeah , i 've got something too , but you 're not going to be happy about it . margo : oh , go ahead , make my day . dallas : carly paid the ransom . margo : no , she did not -- what is she thinking ? did n't jack tell her that that was the wrong thing to do -- dallas : he told her -- margo : of course he did . he told her , but she didn'túpay an attention , did she ? no , because she 's carly and why should she change now ? carly : please , jack , i did n't mean to make this harder for you or for you to be hurt . and god knows i did n't mean to put j.j. 's life in danger . jack : no , i 'm sorry . i blame myself . i should n't have included you in any of this . carly : no , do n't say that . we have to work together to get j.j. back . jack : you 're willing to work with me now ? i do n't even know how to respond . carly : what 's important here is j.j. and we have a better chance of getting him back if we work togethern just like we did when we found parker in chicago . jack : you did n't go behind my back then . carly : i will do whatever you want me to do . jack : okay , stop . just stop . i ca n't -- i ca n't listen to this . you 're right about one thing , though . j.j. is all that matters . carly : then you forgive me ? jack : i need some time alone to think about my next move . can you give me that ? carly : yeah . i 'll be out in the hall . well , if you 're here to tell jack that i paid the ransom , i already told him . katie : i was n't going to . carly : and he forgave me . he understood that i 'm just trying to protect our family . katie : the answer is yes . yes , i 'll marry you because i love you . i love you so much . jack : i love you too , carly . hey , katie . katie , do n't go . meagen : `` a miracle happened and i survived one of the biggest tornadoes . `` sara : `` he was a good dad from what we can remember . `` judy : `` even twenty years later i can remember the feeling . `` lynda : a black friday special presentation tonight on the news hour . . . . . . . . they know the city of champions - inside and out . when you need to know , you know where to turn . gord steinke and lynda steele . the news hour - weeknights at 6 , only on global edmonton . our city . our news . . . . . meg : you think you 've got me pegged , that you know what i want before i do . craig : i just do n't see any point keeping up a pretense . meg : then tell me craig . tell me what is it i want . craig : you need me . you have admitted it . and i have admitted i 'm in love with you . that is a lot to build on . meg : not if you still refuse to face the fact that i love paul . craig : paul is dead . it is just the two of us . it 's just you and me . and maybe that 's something you need to face . barbara : you need to come home and be with your family . that 's what 's going to help you recover . paul : not yet mom . barbara : paul , please do n't stay away from us because of meg and craig . paul : i think i just need a little time , that 's all . barbara : okay . and i 'll stay here with you until you 're stronger . paul : no . you should go , because i think i need to stay dead a little longer . barbara : i 'm not going to leave you here in the hospital . you 've only been awake a couple of hours . paul : long enough for me to know exactly what it is i have to do . barbara : okay , then let me help you . paul : you want to help me ?

barbara : you have my word . lily : carly 's a very resourceful woman . especially when it comes to her children . look what she did to get back to her kids here . sneaking into the country , avoiding the cops -- holden : i agree . she can be very resourceful when she need to be . but this time , all she had to do was ask . lily : what do you mean ? holden : what i mean is , she got the money from you , did n't she ? katie : hey . how are you feeling ? jack : i 'm better now that you 're here . katie : i wanted to give you a little time with your family . jack : yeah , well , when i woke up -- stop that . stop , when i woke up and you were n't here , i got worried . katie : i 've been going out of my mind . i think i 've called this hospital every ten minutes . seeing you on the ground like that , i just -- my heart dropped . jack : yeah , i 'm fine now . katie : j.j. -- thank god , he got out of there . if anything had happened to him . jack : they cleared out before the explosion . katie : do you remember anything ?

chris : so that 's what you 're thinking ? when i showed up at your doorstep as kelly , i was expecting to learn something dark and sinister about isabella . paul : well , chris , i do n't know what you were g. that 's what i 'm trying to find out . you have to admit it 's kind of weird -- coming in disguise to seemy wife and asking her a lot of questions about her ex - husband . chris : i do n't know her that well . i was curious . paul : well , isa and james have been apart for years . chris : so i 'm told . paul : well , are you saying you think there is still some connection between the two ? chris : i 'm saying i do n't know what to make of that woman . paul : so you do n't trust her ? chris : would you in my position ? paul : i 'll ask you again . what were you looking for ? chris : i do n't know . paul : so i take it that whatever it was , you did n't find anything ? : you must have talked to her . what did she say ? paul : she had no idea at all what kelly simmons would be after . chris : yet , you 're here asking me questions . why ? do you think she 's lying to you ? ( doorbell rings ) ( ring ) isabella : paul , are you gon na get ... michael : what 's the matter with you ? you look like you 've seen a ghost . isabella : are you crazy ? what the hell are you doing here ? michael : where the hell is he ? ! isabella : i do n't know , but you need to leave . michael : what do you mean you do n't know ? isabella : i was taking a shower . i guess he 's gone out . michael : you guess he 's gone . out where ? isabella : to the store or jogging -- he does that sometimes . michael : at least , that 's what he tells you . isabella : what is that supposed to mean ? michael : i found out something tonight ... something ugly and sick about the man you 're married to . something you should know . isabella : you 're scaring me . michael : you should be scared . you 're living with a maniac . ( door opens ) jack : about time you got home . ashley : i have a bone to pick with you . jack : hey , sis , well , obviously -- ashley : you hired drucilla as the spokesperson for our new line ? jack : okay , look , i was gon na call you about that . ashley : i made my feelings very clear . jack : i understand you have some reservations . ashley : for good reason . jack : would you let me finish ? i understand where you might have misgivings about hiring drucilla . i honestly feel the advantages of having her on our team far outweigh the disadvantages . ashley : i totally disagree . jack : what , you think she 's going to leak something to newman ? ashley : she 's got a bad habit of flapping her gums . and with the stakes this high , it could be a disaster . jack : ash , believe me i understand your concerns -- ashley : well , obviously you don't . do i have to remind you she 's already blown it for us once big time ? she told neil that we were interested in acquiring a new company . because of her , satine was stolen fromndnder us . jack : yes , and we learned a lesson from that . ashley : that 's right , jack , that drucilla ca n't be trusted . jack : what happened with satine is not going to happen again . ashley : how can you possibly be so sure ? jack : because we will take steps to see that see that it does n't happen again . what is it they say , `` forewarned is forearmed `` ? ashley : why are you smiling ? jack : well , 'cause i 'm hoping victor 's gon na react exactly as you have . ashley : what does that mean ? jack : yes , newman enterprises pulled a fast one on us . and , yes , they probably have drucilla to thank for that , but if they think that 's a weakness they can capitalize on again , well , we might have a little surprise for them . ashley : okay . what 's going on ? jack : whatever do you mean ? ashley : are you thinking of using drucilla to our advantage ? jack : well , i did -- ashley : 'cause i got bad news for you . just because she lives with neil does not mean that we 're gon na get inside information . jack : i am not suggesting we get drucilla to spy on her boyfriend . besides , victor is going to be on the lookout for that -- i 've seen to it . ashley : what does that mean ? jack : well , i paid e e old boy a little visit . ashley : oh , no . jack : actually , it went quite well . i dropped a few hints suggesting that maybe drucilla 's connection to neil might not be the best thing for newman enterprises . i 'm sure he knew i was bluffing , but , well , the seed was planted . ashley : and what was the point of that ? jack : what , you 've never heard the term `` led astray `` ? ashley : okay , look , do n't play any games with me . just spit it out . jack : okay , fine . if we 've learned one thing from this whole satine episode , it is that drucilla has a big mouth . when she gets excited , she tends to blab . ashley : yeah , that 's exactly what i said . jack : so that anything we tell her might eventually get to newman . ashley : precisely , jack , so what -- jack : including bogus information . ashley : what kind of information ? jack : i 'm still working on that . it 's kind of an interesting idea though , do n't you think ? victor thinks we 're headed in one direction and -- ashley : we 're headed in another . jack : what do you think ? ashley : interesting idea . jack : oh , believe me , this is just the kind of poison victor newman swallows whole . ] on saturdays morning edition , we 'll take you to the annual farm and ranch show at ashley : seeing you scheme like this just reminds me of how cutthroat you can be . jack : yeah , great , is n't it ? nice to get those old juices flowing . feel like my old self again . ashley : frankly , i find it rather unsettling . jack : if you 're gon na start into the speeches about playing fair , please , we 're not kids in a playground anymore . this is business . this is family business , and jabot is up for the fight of its -- ashley : okay , i did n't say that , all right ? i did n't say we were going to back off . jack : what are you saying ? ashley : you 're so hell - bent on this one - upping of victor that it clouds your judgment , jack . it 's kind of scary how consumed you get with this quest for revenge , and i do n't like to see this side of you . i really hate it . jack : i will admit that from time to time i have let victor newman get to me a little . ashley : a little ? jack : what can i say ? this guy gets under my skin like nobody 's business , but keep something in mind -- victor will not be at the helm on this particular venture . neil and victoria will be running the show . ashley : it 's still victor 's company . jack : yes , but you talked about competition clouding the judgment . try to remember that neil and victoria are not immune to that -- as a matter of fact , that 's actually the delicious irony in all of this -- they 're celebrating right now their great victory , a victory that could well be their undoing . ashley : what does that mean ? jack : well , i think you 'll agree with me that the two of them are feeling pretty good about themselves right now . ashley : yeah , i 'd say so . jack : yeah , they stole satine out from under us . probably thinking it 's smooth sailing from here on . ashley : what are you suggesting , that they 're overconfident ? jack : i think they might be . ashley : well , maybe you should think about this -- now that they have acquired satine , they already have a major force in the african - american cosmetics field . they have a name , they have a proven product line , and they have a customer base to build on . you tie that in with brash & sassy , they have every reason to be confident right now , jack . jack : i agree with you to a point . ashley : why ca n't you just admit that this was a triumph for newman enterprises ? jack : because i am looking at the big picture . yes , they have satine , and satine has a number of products . they all need updating . you have the expertise . we have the people to pull this off . they do n't ! ashley : are you finished ? jack : no , i 'm not finished . you talk about infrastructure -- what do they have ? brash & sassy ? it 's a little teen line . they focused on one market all this time . they 're out of their league , ash . ashley : okay , okay , i see your point . just do n't let yourself get ovcoconfident . because neil and victoria are both very savvy businesspeople and these challenges are not insurmountable . jack : well , not right now . but then you have n't allowed me to unveil my coup de grce . ashley : and what might that be ? jack : my beautiful wife phyllis . phyllis : cody , can i please , um , have some black coffee ? i 'll be out there . diane : phyllis , no , no , no , no , no . just go away . phyllis : are you sure ? looks like you could use some company ... or a sweater . brr ! it 's chilly in here , cold . those things of yours must be icicles . diane : are you finished ? phyllis : how 's it working for ya ? giving out your number left and right ? diane : i have no idea what you 're talking about . phyllis : you have no idea what i 'm talking about ? really ? you could n't be more obvious if you tried , diane . diane : obvious ? phyllis : yes , obvious . but i 'm surprised you picked this place . is n't it a little wholesome for you ? i do n't -- i mean , if you 're gon na go cruising . diane : i am not cruising . phyllis : okay , trolling . is that a better word ? oh , props . that 's good . that 's good , because you do n't want to be too eager . i mean , desperation , that 's got ta stink . diane : yeah , well , so do people who 've worn out their welcome . phyllis : witty repartee , that 's good , too . men love that . diane : oh , wait , wait . so you 're giving out advice now ? phyllis : i should . i should give out advice . diane : oh , please . phyllis : yeah , who better to give advice than me ? i mean , everything is going great for me . i 'm on top of the world . i have a great job , great marriage , phenomenal sex , phenomenal sex , by the way . not to mention an adorable little boy that i get to raise along with my husband , who -- i do n't even know where to start with jack . i mean , he 's so loving and attentive . i 'm the luckiest girl in the world . you , on the other hand , it 's got ta be lonely , especially since you do n't have jack anymore . honey , you need to get out . you need to find a man . must be difficult , you know , with your age and all . diane : if you 're implying that i 'm too old to find someone -- phyllis : is n't that why you 're here at the coffeehouse instead of a bar ? is n't it ? i mean , you 're looking for a college boy , right ? some nubile flesh to snuggle up to . there are plenty of them here , honey . have at it . ah , thank you . right , cody ? cody : what 's that ? diane : phyllis -- phyllis : my friend here is available , and she 's looking for a man . so do you have any hottie you can introduce her to ? oh , oh , wait , wait , cody , you 're a strapping young thing . what do you think , diane ? what do you think ? paul : do you think isabella is lying to me about something ? chris : you tell me . what do you think ? paul : well , i had planned to reveal the truth about kelly simmons , but i mentioned the name to isabella , and she got all upset . now why would that cause that kind of a reaction ? chris : you 're asking me how that woman 's mind works ? paul : no , i 'm asking what you were after , and why at the mere mention of kelly , isabella got so edgy . chris : so she still does n't know kelly is me ? paul : no . chris : paul , i do n't have any answers for you . i mean , my god , i 'm not a mind reader , and i certainly do n't understand isabella . paul : well , chris , i have to get on with my life , and i certainly ca n't ignore what you did . i 'm sure you have a very legitimate reason for all this cloak and dagger stuff . but i have to know what it is . do you think isabellahas something in her past ? she 's hiding some dark secret ? isabella : look , if this is about christine and the night of the baptism -- michael : oh , oh , yes , it sure as hell is about that night . you see , chris and paul did n't just sleep together like we were led to believe , it was just a matter of two people caught up in a moment of passion . isabella : i know . michael : what do you mean , you know ? isabella : paul confessed . michael : paul confe -- paul told you -- he told you that he forced himself on christine ? isabella : yes . michael : what , and you still live here ? you 're still in this apartment ? isabella : shh ! in case you 've forgotten , i love paul . michael : for god 's sake . isabella : we are trying to work through these issues . michael : oh , you ca n't be serious . you 're trying to forgive him ? isabella : yes , i 'm trying . michaelalall right , okay . okay , then ... then that 's probably for the best . you just keep him away from my fiancée , or i swear to god he 'll answer to me . diane : just ignore her , would you please ? cody : well , can i get either of you ladies anything else ? phyllis : besides your phone number ? here , keep the change , cody , please . cody : thank you . phyllis : sure . he 's a hottie . so cute . could n't you just eat him up with a spoon ? diane : phyllis , phyllis , always the same catty bitch . phyllis : ohh ! ohh . where you going ? diane : my coffee 's cold . i 'm going to get a fresh cup . is that okay ? phyllis : hey , you know what ? why do n't you get me some sugar while you 're up ? unless it 's too much trouble . diane : as a matter of fact , it 'd be no trouble at all . you know what ? you can have some of mine . phyllis : ( gasps ) good girl . ashley : and just what does your wife have to do with any of this ? jack : well , for starters , she 's just been rehired at newman enterprises . ashley : are you serious ? jack : yeah , interesting , do n't you think ? they 'd lost all trust in her , and they rehired her . ashley : oh , no , i see that machiavellian gleam in your eye . what are you thinking ? jack : well , i 'm thinking i have to use my considerable skills to convince my wife to dump newman and come back to jabot . ashley : how are you gon na pull that off ? jack : well , carefully . so far , i 've tri o once , and she shot me down , but i guess i 'll have to try harder . actually , that 's where you come in . ashley : why me ? jack : yeah , i need you and bradley to stop by here tomorrow for breakfast . ashley : you have a plan . jack : well , of course i have a plan . do you want to hear it or not ? ( knock on door ) ( knock on door ) andy : diane , you in there ? andy : hey . diane : how are you , andy ? andy : whoa , whoa , whoa . what 's going on here ? are you okay ? diane : no , no , i 'm miserable . what else is new ? andy : okay , lks like i came by at a good time here . diane : i have had the worst night . andy : why ? what happened ? diane : well , i was at the coffeehouse . i was minding my own business , reading a magazine , and then phyllis plops down at my table and just -- ugh ! andy : sounds like phyllis . diane : that woman is so hateful . she 's so nasty . she has jack . she has my son . she has the life that i want more than anything , but is she content ? does she show a little class ? no , she has to come over and rub it in my face , just humiliate me in public . andy : diane , i 'm sorry . okay , i 'm sorry you had to go through that . diane : well , i made it out of there without falling apart , but now i 'm just ... i was about to crawl under the covers and just cry myself to sleep when you showed up . andy : i 'm glad i did . diane : i 'm really lucky to have a friend like you . you 're my one and only . god , i just -- i just feel so alone . andy : come here . you are not alone . diane : andy , what has happened to my life ? why are things like this ? i know what phyllis would say -- say that i deserve it . andy : just forget phyllis . diane : do you think this is karma ? andy : no . diane : i mean , is this what people are talking about , some sort of cosmic payback for all of my sins ? andy : i do n't think blaming yourself and wallowing around in regret is gon na help right now . diane : well , then what is ? you need to tell me what is going to help because i ca n't do this anymore . i can't . jack : you are here ! phyllis : yes , i am . jack : i thought i heard someone go up the back staircase a little earlier . phyllis : yes , that was me . i wanted to get up here real quick . i had coffee all over , and , um , i wanted to change -- jack : whoa , whoa , whoa , what do you mean you had coffee all over you ? phyllis : i ran into diane at the coffeehouse , and we kind of got into it . jack : diane threw coffee at you ? phyllis : yes , she did . she did . it was fine . it was cold . i handled it . jack : what does that mean , you handled it ? you threw coffee back at her ? phyllis : no , i did not do that . i just sat there and let her walk away . jack : really ? phyllis : really . i think it 's finally sunk in what a pathetic loser diane is , and i 'm going to take the high road from here on out . jack : i 'm glad you are . phyllis : how are you doing ? jack : i 'm okay . phyllis : okay , i called you a couple times , left a message on your voice mail . you did n't return my call . i figured you were still mad . jack : about you going back to work at newman enterprises ? phyllis : uh - h .. i was also wondering if you were gon na show up tonight , but here you are . so what does that mean ? jack : does that mean that i 'm willing to just sweep it all away like it never happened ? i do n't think so . isabella : i wish i could keep paul away from christine , but i 'm afraid i ca n't do that . michael : lock him up if you have to . isabella : i ca n't control who my husband sees . michael : does it irk you in the least that he attacked christine ? isabella : of course it does . but i 've spent too many sleepless nights wondering how this could have happened michael : it happened because he could n't keep his pants zipped . isabella : but if i could 've done something to prevent it ... michael : no , isabella , it 's not your fault . isabella : you know , nevertheless , i believe it 's all out in the open , and paul has apologized , and now we have a chance at working at our marriage . michael : okay , all right . to each his own , i guess . isabella : you know , i know this might be hard for you to understand , but paul and i share something very special , something worth fighting for . michael : i know , i know , i know , your child . isabella : no , it 's more than that . it 's something i ca n't explain . michael : what is it with the women i know ? i just do n't understand the lengths you will go to to keep a relationship going , no matter how ghastly . isabella : you know , there 's one thing that bothers me though . michael : what 's that ? isabella : that woman kelly simmons -- paul was asking a lot of questions about her tonight . michael : that 's right , you do n't know . i isabella : know what ? michael : the mysterious kelly simmons ... she was , um , christine . phyllis : so yr r feelings have n't changed . jack : did you really think they would ? phyllis : well , i thought maybe they would since you had time to process this . jack : what 's to process here ? i have serious concerns about your working for newman enterprises again . if you do n't get that , i -- phyllis : i get it . i just think you 're being ridiculous . jack : you know what ? i do n't want to argue , okay ? phyllis : i do n't want to argue either . jack : okay , let 's drop the subject for tonight -- phyllis : okay , let 's drop the subject . i just have one more thing to say . jack : okay , go . phyllis : i have my reasons for keeping j job . okay ? and i would think at the very least you would respect that . i mean , it is my life . jack : what about our life ? phyllis : do n't do that to me . you know our life matters to me . do n't -- jack , do n't do that . we 've always kept our business and personal lives separate . i do n't put up walls . i love you . why is this in issue now ? ! jack : because suddenly the stakes are different . they 've changed . they 're higher than they 've ever been . my family 's company is in for the fight of its life . i have to act , whicisis precisely what i 've done . andy : you 're having a bad night , huh ? diane : they 're all like this . ever since phyllis and jack took my son away . how am i supposed to recover ? how am i supposed to put my life back together again when it 's just ... pain ? andy : you reach out . you ask for help . ask god to take it away . diane : you know i 'm not a religious person . andy : you do n't have to be . it 's not a club . no one 's excluded . you just -- you just got ta ask , diane . diane : you make it sound so easy . andy : it 's the easiest thing in the world . everything happens for a reason . i 've always believed that , diane , and something -- something good is gon na come out of this . you wait and see . diane : you 're always so positive . andy : it 's all about attitude . diane : trying to find that silver lining , hmm ? andy : that 's a cliché , but you know what ? it works . okay , if you get in the habit , changing your thinking ... diane : you know , you give me that same message over and over . and it never sinks in , but you do n't give up . no matter how ubborn i am or how much i resist , you always seem to be there for me . andy : maybe there 's a reason for that , too . isabella : if that 's a joke , it 's not funny . michael : no , no , no , no . no joke . isabella : you 're saying kelly simmons and christine williams are the same person ? michael : yup , yup . big surprise , huh ? isabella : why -- why would christine do something so off the wall ? michael : you 'll have to ask her that . isabella : well , who else knows ? michael : lynne . isabella : then it 's possible that paul knows . michael : so what if he does ? isabella : he was asking all those questions . what if he was trying to trip me up or something ? did chris say paul knew ? michael : the subject never came up . isabella : oh , my god . my god , this is ... he knows something . why else would he be grilling me like that ? oh , this ca n't be happening . this ca n't be happening , not when everything was just starting to settle down , michael . what am i going to do ? what the hell am i gon na do ? ! chris : i do n't know what to think about your wife . i truly don't . you said earlier that things are better between the two of you ? paul : yeah . chris : and that 's what you want ? paul : you know , chris , there has really been way too much trauma . and life is too short to keep hurting the people you love . chris : i feel the same way . paul : i want to move on . chris : can you ? paul : well , that 's why i keep asking , what were you trying to accomplish with this whole disguise thing ? i mean , what were you trying to uncover ? chris : whatever it was , i did n't find it . paul : but you still have suspicions . chris : i 'm just gon na let it go . i do n't want to turn your life upside down . and if what you want is a future with isabella ... paul : i so regret what i did to you . chris : i know . but it happened , and it 's over . paul : you know , you never admitted it , but that 's part of the reason you came back in disguise , is n't it ? you did n't want to have to confront me . you were n't sure what you felt or what you were going to feel . chris : no , you 're right . i was n't sure what i felt . paul : well , what about now , chris ? what do you feel now ? diane : is this the part where i blush ? andy : beats the heck out of crying . diane : well , that 's true . seriously , andy -- andy : you kw w what i was thinking about this morning ? diane : what ? andy : us . our past . and i was wondering what it would be like if we 'd been together , i mean , working on our relationship all those years . diane : well , i 'm sure i would have screwed it up somehow . nice . i seem to have the kiss of death when it comes to relationships . andy : come on . come on , no . diane : look at my track record . andy : but the kiss of death ? i seem to recall kissing you plenty of times . there 's not a scratch on me . diane : no ? andy : not a one . diane : there must be a few scars . how could there not be ? andy : you want proof ? kiss me . come on . come on . no , no , kiss me now . come on . diane : andy , that 's -- andy : look , i 'm made of tough stuff . nothing to worry about . diane : famous last words . andy : kiss me . diane : all right . okay . do n't say i did n't warn you . diane : should i call an ambulance ?

jack : nothing . phyllis : no , jack , tell me what you 're doing . jack : know what ? i do n't want to talk about business anymore tonight , okay ? okay ? deal ? phyllis : what 's that ? jack : it 's a photo album . phyllis : it 's a new one . jack : no , you have n't seen this one before . when we were little , my dad gave each of us kids a photo album -- you know , a chronicle of the highlights of our lives , birthdays , christmases , graduations . traci d d ashley kept theirs downstairs . i kept mine up in this room . i looked at it all the time . phyllis : why are you telling me this ? jack : i liked looking at it not because it was pictures of me at different stages of my life . i liked looking at it 'cause my dad was very careful to make sure all the pictures were of family . and at the times i was most lost , when i was most alone , i would look at these pictures , and i would realize i was surrounded by love . i was surrounded by family . i was lucky to be an abbott . anyway , this one is yours . jack : go ahead . phyllis : i 'm in all of these . jack : yeah . yeah , you and other abbotts . i was gon na fill the ole thing . i only got a few pages . i 'll keep adding to it . but i wanted you to have it now . i want you to know you 're part of this family in a very real way . look , i know it should n't even matter what goes on outside this house . the only thing that 's really important is that i love you , that you know i love you . and you know , i thank god every day that you 're in my life . phyllis : i do n't know what to say . i mean , this is so sweet . you have no idea how much this means to me . i -- i 'm so ... i 'm so bless t to be a part of your family . i mean , 'cause you know i 'm not -- i 'm not close to my own family , you know . you guys have all welcomed me into your lives , and i just feel that it 's like i 'm .. like i 'm coming home . jack : no , no . it 's not like you 're coming home . you are home . you 're home right now . michael : all right , look , what 's wrong with you ? do you need to be hysterical right now ? isabella : i ca n't help it . i -- michael : listen to me . it does n't matter if paul knows . he would have found out sooner or later . isabella : no , you did n't hear him , michael . the way he was hammering me with those questions , they can only mean that he 's suspicious . michael : he 's a detective . that 's what detectives do . they ask questions . isabella : why would n't he tell me that he knew kelly was christine ? michael : look , u u know , forget all about that , isabella . you said that your and paul 's relationship was going well . same with chris and i . isabella : what does that have to do with anything ? michael : you want things to stay that way , do n't you ? isabella : of course i do . michael : well , then for god 's sakes , leave well enough alone . you keep working on your relationship . i 'll keep working on my relatishship . but whatever you do , do not confront paul on this . it is not necessary . isabella : how can you say that ? he -- if paul was purposely deceiving me and pretending not to know that kelly was chris , chris was ke -- he 'd only be doing that for one reason . michael : what reason ? isabella : he wants answers to my past -- the exact thing that you and i have been fighting like demons to prevent . michael : please let that go . keep your mouth shut . if you confront paul on this , you will be opening a can of worms you do not want to deal with . look , so -- look . you be a good girl . you pull yourself together . and just be glad that i did n't get my hands on paul . just tell him that he got a free pass this time . but if he has half a brain , he 'll stay as far away from my fiancé as he possibly can , okay ? chris : we 've traveled a long and rocky road together . paul : yeah , we have . chris : things have happened that i still do n't believe and do n't completely understand . paul : i hope you can believe this . whatever i did , and how i lost control -- and believe me , i will regret that for the rest of my life -- that i never , ever felt anything for you but love . i mean , there was anger , and there was rage , but underneath it all there was love . chris : i know . paul : and that i could let myself get into a position like that -- chris : i know , but i was n't entirely blameless . my own feelings were so confused . paul : i should have stopped . chris : do n't , okay ? you 're just -- you 're torturing yourself , and you 're torturing me . paul : i do n't mean to . paul : um ... i know things will never be the same . chris : no . we have no future together . we share a past , and much of it ... actually , most of it was really beautiful . i just want to hold on to that . paul : i know . that 's all i can hope for . chris : so you gon na be okay ? paul : yeah . do n't worry about me . chris : i know , but i do . paul : i worry about you , too . so ... you know , if you need anything -- chris : i know . i will . just take care of yourself , okay ?

when i showed up at your doorstep as kelly , i was expecting to learn something dark and sinister about isabella . paul : well , chris , i do n't know what you were g. that 's what i 'm trying to find out . you have to admit it 's kind of weird -- coming in disguise to seemy wife and asking her a lot of questions about her ex - husband . chris : i do n't know her that well . i was curious . paul : well , isa and james have been apart for years . chris : so i 'm told . paul : well , are you saying you think there is still some connection between the two ? chris : i 'm saying i do n't know what to make of that woman . paul : so you do n't trust her ? chris : would you in my position ? paul : i 'll ask you again . what were you looking for ? chris : i do n't know . paul : so i take it that whatever it was , you did n't find anything ? : you must have talked to her . what did she say ? paul : she had no idea at all what kelly simmons would be after . chris : yet , you 're here asking me questions . why ? do you think she 's lying to you ? ( doorbell rings ) ( ring ) isabella : paul , are you gon na get ... michael : what 's the matter with you ? you look like you 've seen a ghost . isabella : are you crazy ? what the hell are you doing here ? michael : where the hell is he ? ! isabella : i do n't know , but you need to leave . michael : what do you mean you do n't know ? isabella : i was taking a shower . i guess he 's gone out . michael : you guess he 's gone . out where ? isabella : to the store or jogging -- he does that sometimes . michael : at least , that 's what he tells you . isabella : what is that supposed to mean ? michael : i found out something tonight ... something ugly and sick about the man you 're married to . something you should know . isabella : you 're scaring me . michael : you should be scared . you 're living with a maniac . ( door opens ) jack : about time you got home . ashley : i have a bone to pick with you . jack : hey , sis , well , obviously -- ashley : you hired drucilla as the spokesperson for our new line ? jack : okay , look , i was gon na call you about that . ashley : i made my feelings very clear . jack : i understand you have some reservations . ashley : for good reason . jack : would you let me finish ? i understand where you might have misgivings about hiring drucilla . i honestly feel the advantages of having her on our team far outweigh the disadvantages . ashley : i totally disagree . jack : what , you think she 's going to leak something to newman ? ashley : she 's got a bad habit of flapping her gums . and with the stakes this high , it could be a disaster . jack : ash , believe me i understand your concerns -- ashley : well , obviously you don't . do i have to remind you she 's already blown it for us once big time ? she told neil that we were interested in acquiring a new company . because of her , satine was stolen fromndnder us . jack : yes , and we learned a lesson from that . ashley : that 's right , jack , that drucilla ca n't be trusted . jack : what happened with satine is not going to happen again . ashley : how can you possibly be so sure ? jack : because we will take steps to see that see that it does n't happen again . what is it they say , `` forewarned is forearmed `` ? ashley : why are you smiling ? jack : well , 'cause i 'm hoping victor 's gon na react exactly as you have . ashley : what does that mean ? jack : yes , newman enterprises pulled a fast one on us . and , yes , they probably have drucilla to thank for that , but if they think that 's a weakness they can capitalize on again , well , we might have a little surprise for them . ashley : okay . what 's going on ? jack : whatever do you mean ? ashley : are you thinking of using drucilla to our advantage ? jack : well , i did -- ashley : 'cause i got bad news for you . just because she lives with neil does not mean that we 're gon na get inside information . jack : i am not suggesting we get drucilla to spy on her boyfriend . besides , victor is going to be on the lookout for that -- i 've seen to it . ashley : what does that mean ? jack : well , i paid e e old boy a little visit . ashley : oh , no . jack : actually , it went quite well . i dropped a few hints suggesting that maybe drucilla 's connection to neil might not be the best thing for newman enterprises . i 'm sure he knew i was bluffing , but , well , the seed was planted . ashley : and what was the point of that ? jack : what , you 've never heard the term `` led astray `` ? ashley : okay , look , do n't play any games with me . just spit it out . jack : okay , fine . if we 've learned one thing from this whole satine episode , it is that drucilla has a big mouth . when she gets excited , she tends to blab . ashley : yeah , that 's exactly what i said . jack : so that anything we tell her might eventually get to newman . ashley : precisely , jack , so what -- jack : including bogus information . ashley : what kind of information ? jack : i 'm still working on that . it 's kind of an interesting idea though , do n't you think ? victor thinks we 're headed in one direction and -- ashley : we 're headed in another . jack : what do you think ? ashley : interesting idea . jack : oh , believe me , this is just the kind of poison victor newman swallows whole . ] on saturdays morning edition , we 'll take you to the annual farm and ranch show at ashley : seeing you scheme like this just reminds me of how cutthroat you can be . jack : yeah , great , is n't it ? nice to get those old juices flowing . feel like my old self again . ashley : frankly , i find it rather unsettling . jack : if you 're gon na start into the speeches about playing fair , please , we 're not kids in a playground anymore . this is business . this is family business , and jabot is up for the fight of its -- ashley : okay , i did n't say that , all right ? i did n't say we were going to back off . jack : what are you saying ? ashley : you 're so hell - bent on this one - upping of victor that it clouds your judgment , jack . it 's kind of scary how consumed you get with this quest for revenge , and i do n't like to see this side of you . i really hate it . jack : i will admit that from time to time i have let victor newman get to me a little . ashley : a little ? jack : what can i say ? this guy gets under my skin like nobody 's business , but keep something in mind -- victor will not be at the helm on this particular venture . neil and victoria will be running the show . ashley : it 's still victor 's company . jack : yes , but you talked about competition clouding the judgment . try to remember that neil and victoria are not immune to that -- as a matter of fact , that 's actually the delicious irony in all of this -- they 're celebrating right now their great victory , a victory that could well be their undoing . ashley : what does that mean ? jack : well , i think you 'll agree with me that the two of them are feeling pretty good about themselves right now . ashley : yeah , i 'd say so . jack : yeah , they stole satine out from under us . probably thinking it 's smooth sailing from here on . ashley : what are you suggesting , that they 're overconfident ? jack : i think they might be . ashley : well , maybe you should think about this -- now that they have acquired satine , they already have a major force in the african - american cosmetics field . they have a name , they have a proven product line , and they have a customer base to build on . you tie that in with brash & sassy , they have every reason to be confident right now , jack . jack : i agree with you to a point . ashley : why ca n't you just admit that this was a triumph for newman enterprises ? jack : because i am looking at the big picture . yes , they have satine , and satine has a number of products . they all need updating . you have the expertise . we have the people to pull this off . they do n't ! ashley : are you finished ? jack : no , i 'm not finished . you talk about infrastructure -- what do they have ? brash & sassy ? it 's a little teen line . they focused on one market all this time . they 're out of their league , ash . ashley : okay , okay , i see your point . just do n't let yourself get ovcoconfident . because neil and victoria are both very savvy businesspeople and these challenges are not insurmountable . jack : well , not right now . but then you have n't allowed me to unveil my coup de grce . ashley : and what might that be ? jack : my beautiful wife phyllis . phyllis : cody , can i please , um , have some black coffee ? i 'll be out there . diane : phyllis , no , no , no , no , no . just go away . phyllis : are you sure ? looks like you could use some company ... or a sweater . brr ! it 's chilly in here , cold . those things of yours must be icicles . diane : are you finished ? phyllis : how 's it working for ya ? giving out your number left and right ? diane : i have no idea what you 're talking about . phyllis : you have no idea what i 'm talking about ? really ? you could n't be more obvious if you tried , diane . diane : obvious ? phyllis : yes , obvious . but i 'm surprised you picked this place . is n't it a little wholesome for you ? i do n't -- i mean , if you 're gon na go cruising . diane : i am not cruising . phyllis : okay , trolling . is that a better word ? oh , props . that 's good . that 's good , because you do n't want to be too eager . i mean , desperation , that 's got ta stink . diane : yeah , well , so do people who 've worn out their welcome . phyllis : witty repartee , that 's good , too . men love that . diane : oh , wait , wait . so you 're giving out advice now ? phyllis : i should . i should give out advice . diane : oh , please . phyllis : yeah , who better to give advice than me ? i mean , everything is going great for me . i 'm on top of the world . i have a great job , great marriage , phenomenal sex , phenomenal sex , by the way . not to mention an adorable little boy that i get to raise along with my husband , who -- i do n't even know where to start with jack . i mean , he 's so loving and attentive . i 'm the luckiest girl in the world . you , on the other hand , it 's got ta be lonely , especially since you do n't have jack anymore . honey , you need to get out . you need to find a man . must be difficult , you know , with your age and all . diane : if you 're implying that i 'm too old to find someone -- phyllis : is n't that why you 're here at the coffeehouse instead of a bar ? is n't it ? i mean , you 're looking for a college boy , right ? some nubile flesh to snuggle up to . there are plenty of them here , honey . have at it . ah , thank you . right , cody ? cody : what 's that ? diane : phyllis -- phyllis : my friend here is available , and she 's looking for a man . so do you have any hottie you can introduce her to ? oh , oh , wait , wait , cody , you 're a strapping young thing . what do you think , diane ? what do you think ? paul : do you think isabella is lying to me about something ? chris : you tell me . what do you think ? paul : well , i had planned to reveal the truth about kelly simmons , but i mentioned the name to isabella , and she got all upset . now why would that cause that kind of a reaction ? chris : you 're asking me how that woman 's mind works ? paul : no , i 'm asking what you were after , and why at the mere mention of kelly , isabella got so edgy . chris : so she still does n't know kelly is me ? paul : no . chris : paul , i do n't have any answers for you . i mean , my god , i 'm not a mind reader , and i certainly do n't understand isabella . paul : well , chris , i have to get on with my life , and i certainly ca n't ignore what you did . i 'm sure you have a very legitimate reason for all this cloak and dagger stuff . but i have to know what it is . do you think isabellahas something in her past ? she 's hiding some dark secret ? isabella : look , if this is about christine and the night of the baptism -- michael : oh , oh , yes , it sure as hell is about that night . you see , chris and paul did n't just sleep together like we were led to believe , it was just a matter of two people caught up in a moment of passion . isabella : i know . michael : what do you mean , you know ? isabella : paul confessed . michael : paul confe -- paul told you -- he told you that he forced himself on christine ? isabella : yes . michael : what , and you still live here ? you 're still in this apartment ? isabella : shh ! in case you 've forgotten , i love paul . michael : for god 's sake . isabella : we are trying to work through these issues . michael : oh , you ca n't be serious . you 're trying to forgive him ? isabella : yes , i 'm trying . michaelalall right , okay . okay , then ... then that 's probably for the best . you just keep him away from my fiancée , or i swear to god he 'll answer to me . diane : just ignore her , would you please ? cody : well , can i get either of you ladies anything else ? phyllis : besides your phone number ? here , keep the change , cody , please . cody : thank you . phyllis : sure . he 's a hottie . so cute . could n't you just eat him up with a spoon ? diane : phyllis , phyllis , always the same catty bitch . phyllis : ohh ! ohh . where you going ? diane : my coffee 's cold . i 'm going to get a fresh cup . is that okay ? phyllis : hey , you know what ? why do n't you get me some sugar while you 're up ? unless it 's too much trouble . diane : as a matter of fact , it 'd be no trouble at all . you know what ? you can have some of mine . phyllis : ( gasps ) good girl . ashley : and just what does your wife have to do with any of this ? jack : well , for starters , she 's just been rehired at newman enterprises . ashley : are you serious ? jack : yeah , interesting , do n't you think ? they 'd lost all trust in her , and they rehired her . ashley : oh , no , i see that machiavellian gleam in your eye . what are you thinking ? jack : well , i 'm thinking i have to use my considerable skills to convince my wife to dump newman and come back to jabot . ashley : how are you gon na pull that off ? jack : well , carefully . so far , i 've tri o once , and she shot me down , but i guess i 'll have to try harder . actually , that 's where you come in . ashley : why me ? jack : yeah , i need you and bradley to stop by here tomorrow for breakfast . ashley : you have a plan . jack : well , of course i have a plan . do you want to hear it or not ? ( knock on door ) ( knock on door ) andy : diane , you in there ? andy : hey . diane : how are you , andy ? andy : whoa , whoa , whoa . what 's going on here ? are you okay ? diane : no , no , i 'm miserable . what else is new ? andy : okay , lks like i came by at a good time here . diane : i have had the worst night . andy : why ? what happened ? diane : well , i was at the coffeehouse . i was minding my own business , reading a magazine , and then phyllis plops down at my table and just -- ugh ! andy : sounds like phyllis . diane : that woman is so hateful . she 's so nasty . she has jack . she has my son . she has the life that i want more than anything , but is she content ? does she show a little class ? no , she has to come over and rub it in my face , just humiliate me in public . andy : diane , i 'm sorry . okay , i 'm sorry you had to go through that . diane : well , i made it out of there without falling apart , but now i 'm just ... i was about to crawl under the covers and just cry myself to sleep when you showed up . andy : i 'm glad i did . diane : i 'm really lucky to have a friend like you . you 're my one and only . god , i just -- i just feel so alone . andy : come here . you are not alone . diane : andy , what has happened to my life ? why are things like this ? i know what phyllis would say -- say that i deserve it . andy : just forget phyllis . diane : do you think this is karma ? andy : no . diane : i mean , is this what people are talking about , some sort of cosmic payback for all of my sins ? andy : i do n't think blaming yourself and wallowing around in regret is gon na help right now . diane : well , then what is ? you need to tell me what is going to help because i ca n't do this anymore . i can't . jack : you are here ! phyllis : yes , i am . jack : i thought i heard someone go up the back staircase a little earlier . phyllis : yes , that was me . i wanted to get up here real quick . i had coffee all over , and , um , i wanted to change -- jack : whoa , whoa , whoa , what do you mean you had coffee all over you ? phyllis : i ran into diane at the coffeehouse , and we kind of got into it . jack : diane threw coffee at you ? phyllis : yes , she did . she did . it was fine . it was cold . i handled it . jack : what does that mean , you handled it ? you threw coffee back at her ? phyllis : no , i did not do that . i just sat there and let her walk away . jack : really ? phyllis : really . i think it 's finally sunk in what a pathetic loser diane is , and i 'm going to take the high road from here on out . jack : i 'm glad you are . phyllis : how are you doing ? jack : i 'm okay . phyllis : okay , i called you a couple times , left a message on your voice mail . you did n't return my call . i figured you were still mad . jack : about you going back to work at newman enterprises ? phyllis : uh - h .. i was also wondering if you were gon na show up tonight , but here you are . so what does that mean ? jack : does that mean that i 'm willing to just sweep it all away like it never happened ? i do n't think so . isabella : i wish i could keep paul away from christine , but i 'm afraid i ca n't do that . michael : lock him up if you have to . isabella : i ca n't control who my husband sees . michael : does it irk you in the least that he attacked christine ? isabella : of course it does . but i 've spent too many sleepless nights wondering how this could have happened michael : it happened because he could n't keep his pants zipped . isabella : but if i could 've done something to prevent it ... michael : no , isabella , it 's not your fault . isabella : you know , nevertheless , i believe it 's all out in the open , and paul has apologized , and now we have a chance at working at our marriage . michael : okay , all right . to each his own , i guess . isabella : you know , i know this might be hard for you to understand , but paul and i share something very special , something worth fighting for . michael : i know , i know , i know , your child . isabella : no , it 's more than that . it 's something i ca n't explain . michael : what is it with the women i know ? i just do n't understand the lengths you will go to to keep a relationship going , no matter how ghastly . isabella : you know , there 's one thing that bothers me though . michael : what 's that ? isabella : that woman kelly simmons -- paul was asking a lot of questions about her tonight . michael : that 's right , you do n't know . i isabella : know what ? michael : the mysterious kelly simmons ... she was , um , christine . phyllis : so yr r feelings have n't changed . jack : did you really think they would ? phyllis : well , i thought maybe they would since you had time to process this . jack : what 's to process here ? i have serious concerns about your working for newman enterprises again . if you do n't get that , i -- phyllis : i get it . i just think you 're being ridiculous . jack : you know what ? i do n't want to argue , okay ? phyllis : i do n't want to argue either . jack : okay , let 's drop the subject for tonight -- phyllis : okay , let 's drop the subject . i just have one more thing to say . jack : okay , go . phyllis : i have my reasons for keeping j job . okay ? and i would think at the very least you would respect that . i mean , it is my life . jack : what about our life ? phyllis : do n't do that to me . you know our life matters to me . do n't -- jack , do n't do that . we 've always kept our business and personal lives separate . i do n't put up walls . i love you . why is this in issue now ? ! jack : because suddenly the stakes are different . they 've changed . they 're higher than they 've ever been . my family 's company is in for the fight of its life . i have to act , whicisis precisely what i 've done . andy : you 're having a bad night , huh ? diane : they 're all like this . ever since phyllis and jack took my son away . how am i supposed to recover ? how am i supposed to put my life back together again when it 's just ... pain ? andy : you reach out . you ask for help . ask god to take it away . diane : you know i 'm not a religious person . andy : you do n't have to be . it 's not a club . no one 's excluded . you just -- you just got ta ask , diane . diane : you make it sound so easy . andy : it 's the easiest thing in the world . everything happens for a reason . i 've always believed that , diane , and something -- something good is gon na come out of this . you wait and see . diane : you 're always so positive . andy : it 's all about attitude . diane : trying to find that silver lining , hmm ? andy : that 's a cliché , but you know what ? it works . okay , if you get in the habit , changing your thinking ... diane : you know , you give me that same message over and over . and it never sinks in , but you do n't give up . no matter how ubborn i am or how much i resist , you always seem to be there for me . andy : maybe there 's a reason for that , too . isabella : if that 's a joke , it 's not funny . michael : no , no , no , no . no joke . isabella : you 're saying kelly simmons and christine williams are the same person ? michael : yup , yup . big surprise , huh ? isabella : why -- why would christine do something so off the wall ? michael : you 'll have to ask her that . isabella : well , who else knows ? michael : lynne . isabella : then it 's possible that paul knows . michael : so what if he does ? isabella : he was asking all those questions . what if he was trying to trip me up or something ? did chris say paul knew ? michael : the subject never came up . isabella : oh , my god . my god , this is ... he knows something . why else would he be grilling me like that ? oh , this ca n't be happening . this ca n't be happening , not when everything was just starting to settle down , michael . what am i going to do ? what the hell am i gon na do ? ! chris : i do n't know what to think about your wife . i truly don't . you said earlier that things are better between the two of you ? paul : yeah . chris : and that 's what you want ? paul : you know , chris , there has really been way too much trauma . and life is too short to keep hurting the people you love . chris : i feel the same way . paul : i want to move on . chris : can you ? paul : well , that 's why i keep asking , what were you trying to accomplish with this whole disguise thing ? i mean , what were you trying to uncover ? chris : whatever it was , i did n't find it . paul : but you still have suspicions . chris : i 'm just gon na let it go . i do n't want to turn your life upside down . and if what you want is a future with isabella ... paul : i so regret what i did to you . chris : i know . but it happened , and it 's over . paul : you know , you never admitted it , but that 's part of the reason you came back in disguise , is n't it ? you did n't want to have to confront me . you were n't sure what you felt or what you were going to feel . chris : no , you 're right . i was n't sure what i felt . paul : well , what about now , chris ? what do you feel now ? diane : is this the part where i blush ? andy : beats the heck out of crying . diane : well , that 's true . seriously , andy -- andy : you kw w what i was thinking about this morning ? diane : what ? andy : us . our past . and i was wondering what it would be like if we 'd been together , i mean , working on our relationship all those years . diane : well , i 'm sure i would have screwed it up somehow . nice . i seem to have the kiss of death when it comes to relationships . andy : come on . come on , no . diane : look at my track record . andy : but the kiss of death ? i seem to recall kissing you plenty of times . there 's not a scratch on me . diane : no ? andy : not a one . diane : there must be a few scars . how could there not be ? andy : you want proof ? kiss me . come on . come on . no , no , kiss me now . come on . diane : andy , that 's -- andy : look , i 'm made of tough stuff . nothing to worry about . diane : famous last words . andy : kiss me . diane : all right . okay . do n't say i did n't warn you . diane : should i call an ambulance ?

jack : i liked looking at it not because it was pictures of me at different stages of my life . i liked looking at it 'cause my dad was very careful to make sure all the pictures were of family . and at the times i was most lost , when i was most alone , i would look at these pictures , and i would realize i was surrounded by love . i was surrounded by family . i was lucky to be an abbott . anyway , this one is yours . jack : go ahead . phyllis : i 'm in all of these . jack : yeah . yeah , you and other abbotts . i was gon na fill the ole thing . i only got a few pages . i 'll keep adding to it . but i wanted you to have it now . i want you to know you 're part of this family in a very real way . look , i know it should n't even matter what goes on outside this house . the only thing that 's really important is that i love you , that you know i love you . and you know , i thank god every day that you 're in my life . phyllis : i do n't know what to say . i mean , this is so sweet . you have no idea how much this means to me . i -- i 'm so ... i 'm so bless t to be a part of your family . i mean , 'cause you know i 'm not -- i 'm not close to my own family , you know . you guys have all welcomed me into your lives , and i just feel that it 's like i 'm .. like i 'm coming home . jack : no , no . it 's not like you 're coming home . you are home . you 're home right now . michael : all right , look , what 's wrong with you ?

he -- if paul was purposely deceiving me and pretending not to know that kelly was chris , chris was ke -- he 'd only be doing that for one reason . michael : what reason ? isabella : he wants answers to my past -- the exact thing that you and i have been fighting like demons to prevent . michael : please let that go . keep your mouth shut . if you confront paul on this , you will be opening a can of worms you do not want to deal with . look , so -- look . you be a good girl . you pull yourself together . and just be glad that i did n't get my hands on paul . just tell him that he got a free pass this time . but if he has half a brain , he 'll stay as far away from my fiancé as he possibly can , okay ? chris : we 've traveled a long and rocky road together . paul : yeah , we have . chris : things have happened that i still do n't believe and do n't completely understand . paul : i hope you can believe this . whatever i did , and how i lost control -- and believe me , i will regret that for the rest of my life -- that i never , ever felt anything for you but love . i mean , there was anger , and there was rage , but underneath it all there was love . chris : i know . paul : and that i could let myself get into a position like that -- chris : i know , but i was n't entirely blameless . my own feelings were so confused . paul : i should have stopped . chris : do n't , okay ? you 're just -- you 're torturing yourself , and you 're torturing me . paul : i do n't mean to . paul : um ... i know things will never be the same . chris : no . we have no future together . we share a past , and much of it ... actually , most of it was really beautiful . i just want to hold on to that . paul : i know . that 's all i can hope for . chris : so you gon na be okay ?

cane : you know what , speaking of expanding r & d , that plays into my next thought . billy : lay it on me . cane : okay , brash & sassy ! used to be a teen line , but we 've got away from that . so once we buy the company , we should re - expand back into that market . billy : that does n't make any sense , cane . we just launched a men 's line . we do n't want to spread ourselves too thin . cane : what , you do n't think teenagers have money to spend on personal care products ? billy : did i say that ? no . i did n't , so do n't put words in my mouth . the point i 'm trying to make is that the amount of energy -- victoria : good morning ! it is so gorgeous out there ! i love it when it 's sunny after a snowfall . it 's so fresh and crisp and clean . billy : you 're in a good mood this morning . stop it . cane : well , that 's because she 's happy that we bought the company away from jill , and soon we 'll run it ourselves , billy . billy : well , that makes three of us . cane : you know , speaking of which ... she 's probably gon na be fair with us , but we should get our own attorney to have a look over the contract , make sure our interests are represented , okay ?

devon : [ sighs ] i guess ... lily : devon , look . just face it , okay ? she 's not gon na stop until she has every penny she can get . devon : i know that she 's playing games with me 'cause she always does . lily : well , then , you have to get out in front of this before things get ugly . devon : you do n't have to worry about that because i already have . hilary : dave , can we go with the two - camera setup ? i do n't want to miss any reaction shots , okay ? michael : oh ! i 'm sorry . hilary : michael , um ... i 'm sorry , this is n't a good time . as you can see , i 'm extremely busy . michael : oh , i -- i just need a few minutes to discuss your divorce . hilary : i already told devon multiple times that i do n't want anything from him . what part of that does he not understand ?

[ sighs ] oh ! e - excuse me . do you have a meeting scheduled this morning ? i do n't see anything on mr. abbott 's schedule . ravi : no , i do n't , but -- gloria : no , no , no . why do n't you , um , just go over there and sit down , and i will check with mr. abbott . and , in the meantime , would you like a cup of coffee or tea ? ravi : uh , tea would be great . gloria : great . ravi : thanks . gloria : i bet you 're one of our computer geniuses , huh ? ravi : uh , i work in it . yeah . gloria : you have that look -- nerdy . but very easy on the eyes . ravi : uh , thanks . ashley : hey . ravi : hey . ashley : what are you doing , waiting out here ? ravi : uh , the receptionist told me to wait , so ... ashley : receptionist ? did jack hire somebody new ? ravi : well , evidently , i was n't on mr. abbott 's calendar this morning , so ... ashley : okay , that 's ridiculous . we 're not that formal around here , right ? ravi : yeah , you know , i -- gloria : here you go . tea . well - steeped . bag out . ravi : thanks . lauren : okay , you know jack much better than i do . how do i stop him from taking over the interview ? phyllis : mm , that 's a tough one . when he takes the floor , he pontificates and it makes it very difficult to get a word in edgewise . lauren : hmm . not helping . phyllis : how many times do you do that ? lauren : what ? phyllis : dab your lips after you take a drip from your coffee ? lauren : uh , i 'm dabbing ? i -- i did n't even know that i was . phyllis : at least a half - a - dozen times since we sat down . lauren : really ? phyllis : mm - hmm . lauren : huh . well , i guess we all have our own nervous tics . phyllis : gamblers call them tells . reliable ways of predicting behavior . you see , jack puts his hand in his hair every time he gets upset or angry . and he always smoothes his tie just before he jumps in on a conversation . you see what i 'm saying ? does this help you in any way ? lauren : phyllis ... phyllis : uh - huh ? lauren : i think you 're a genius . [ both chuckle ] lily : i mean , hilary could n't spend the kind of money that you offered her in two lifetimes . why ca n't she just take it and leave you in peace ? devon : she claims she 's not after my money . lily : well , if you believe that , michael would n't be there right now trying to reason with her . devon : oh , i figured it was worth a try , at least . lily : i mean , what does she think that she 'll accomplish by taking the high road ? that you 'll take her back or shell out even more ? devon : i have no idea . as much as i loved her , i never was able to read hilary 's mind , but i 've made it very clear that i 'm willing to pay a huge chunk of money to have this be over . lily : is that what you really want ? because sometimes i think you 're not so sure . michael : as i 'm sure you 're well aware , you and devon do not have a prenup . hilary : of course i 'm aware of that . so ? michael : so , my guess is that you 're thinking you can get more money out of him because of that , which is not how it works , at least not in this case . hilary : i 'm sure you 're gon na explain to me what makes this case so special . michael : yes , ma'am . first of all , devon 's wealth is mostly inherited , so the money and property katherine left him will not be part of any settlement . only the net gains he 's made on these assets since your wedding will be considered marital . hilary : i 'm sorry . should i be writing this down ? michael : secondly , your marriage was of a very short duration . you have n't exactly had years to get used to this lifestyle . third , you 're an educated woman with marketable skills , thereby independent means . you have held a job throughout this marriage and continue to do so . hilary : are you finished ? michael : devon is not now , nor has he never been your sole means of support . the judge is gon na hear that and he 's gon na be like -- hilary : stop it ! stop it ! okay , are you even listening to me ? i do n't want devon 's money . michael : the mere fact that he is offering you a settlement at all is extremely generous . $ 250 million -- that 's quite a bit of money . i suggest you take it , hilary . be done with this . give devon a chance for closure . hilary : i have a show to do . so i 'm gon na use my marketables and independent means to get back to work . michael : hilary , wait . i 'm not finished . stop . cane : jill made this offer to all three of us , okay ? so you ca n't just go and cut billy and me out . victoria : it 's a proposal , cane , not an edict . billy : has my mother okayed this ? victoria : i have n't discussed it with jill yet , but it 's something that i want very much . cane : well , i 'm sorry to tell you this , but you just do n't always get what you want 'cause that 's not the way life works , victoria . victoria : brash & sassy ! was mine , remember ? from the very beginning when it was created at jabot , it was always my baby , and when i went to newman , i took the line with me and i turned it into an entire division . it 's only right that i would have the first crack at buying it back . cane : do you have any idea how arrogant that sounds ? 'cause i worked really hard to make this company a success , okay , while the two of you have been off doing whatever it is the two of you do with your messy personal lives , okay ? so if there 's anyone who should own this company , it is me . billy : well , it takes money to do that , cane . cane : yeah , i 'm very well aware of that . do n't worry about it . victoria : do you see why -- this is why i wanted to have lunch , so we could sit down as friends and colleagues . billy : the kind of colleagues that end up fired after you sign the papers ? victoria : no , of course not . nothing 's gon na change . cane : oh , but everything is going to change . 'cause instead of working with you , i 'm gon na start working for you , and that 's unacceptable . victoria : would you have a problem with it ? billy : no . i hated the arrangement my mother made in the first place . cane : okay , well , of course you 'd side with her , 'cause you 'd say whatever it takes to get back in her bed , would n't you ? billy : my taking of victoria 's side has nothing to do with our relationship . cane : okay . billy : brash & sassy ! was hers , all right ? it was her favorite division until her father sold it out from underneath her . i bought it to keep it warm , and then my mother swiped it from me to use it as a tool to meddle in our lives . so it 's only fair that she gets what 's rightfully hers . it 's about time . cane : according to who ? billy : and second of all , it 's better to follow one person 's vision instead of doing everything by committee . we end up two against one , everybody 's pissed off , and nothing gets done . victoria : that is an excellent point , billy . cane : oh , that is an excellent point , billy . so you 're talking about the man you teamed up with , okay , to hire my wife behind my back . you 're talking about that man , right ? so of course everything he says is an excellent point while nothing i say matters . victoria : that 's not true . cane : oh , it is true . because i was manipulated then , and i 'm being manipulated now by the two of you , who just bring their messy dramas to work . i 'm talking about two people who have no idea what it means to operate professionally . billy : you ever hear of the phrase `` you catch more flies with honey ? `` cane : [ laughs ] okay . i 'm not gon na stand here and have you talk down to me , and i 'm not gon na stand here and let you take this opportunity away from me . it 's just not gon na happen . hilary : telling you has n't worked , so i 'm gon na show you . credit cards -- one , two , three . oh , and this was an anniversary gift . devon : hilary -- hilary : valentine 's day present . oh , this was `` just because . `` and this dress . i saw it at fashion week . i had to have it , so you -- you bought it for me . devon : okay . hilary , that 's enough . stop it , okay ? i get your point . hilary : i just want you to be happy , devon . devon : why you so willing to give up everything this time ? hilary : because loving me can kill you . you ran as far and as fast as you could to get away from me and you ended up in the hospital , all because i lied . and , come on , we both know i 'm gon na do it again . because that 's who i am , that 's what i do . i do n't want you to be collateral damage , so i am walking away . and i 'm not holding on , because you -- you deserve someone great . you deserve someone who could truly make you happy . you want to pretend that i only cared about your bank account ? [ scoffs ] because somehow , i do n't know , that makes you feel better ? you can pretend that i 'm not a real person , right ? a person that you actually cared about , a person that you -- that you actually loved . devon : hilary , i 'll tell you one last time . take this check 'cause it 's the best offer you 're gon na get from me . it 'll make life easier for the both of us , all right ? hilary : i 'm not for sale , devon . i never was . hilary : i thought you left . michael : no . i did n't . hilary : what is this ? michael : i advised devon to have you sign this , regardless of whether you take his check or not . it , uh ... well , in a nutshell , you relinquish all rights to his property and fortune in perpetuity . meaning you ca n't take him to court in the future . hilary : devon agreed to this ? michael : he did . hilary : why does he even need my signature ? is n't my word good enough ? michael : mm . not with so much at stake , no . ashley : are you high ? ! why would you hire gloria to scrub our floors , let alone be your receptionist ? jack : she 's broke . i gave her a job . it 's no big deal . ashley : i knew it when i walked in on the two of you yesterday that something was going on . what does she have on you ? tell me . jack : keep your friends close and your enemies closer . i thought it was smart to keep gloria working here where we could all keep an eye -- ashley : did you just say the word `` smart ? `` jack : personal feelings aside , even you have to admit she 's savvy , she has ... good instincts . ashley : oh , yeah . you know what ? you 're right . now that i think about it . i mean , gloria 's brilliant , like when she tainted our face cream . or she was even more brilliant when she conned our father into leaving her half of his estate ! so you 're right . when it comes to conniving and scheming , gloria 's instincts are the best . jack : are you through ? ashley : no ! jack : too bad , because i am . i 'm not firing gloria . you can take this elsewhere . ashley : god ! please follow me . gloria : have a lovely day , you two ! ashley : what the hell was jack thinking , letting that horrible human being into our family company ? he knew how i 'd react . ravi : i do n't mean to pry , but what is it about gloria you dislike so much ? i mean , did -- did she hurt you in some way ? ashley : she 's hurt everybody in my family , ravi . many , many times . she almost destroyed jabot . ravi : wow . ashley : she 's a gold digger . she conned my father into marrying her . she wants money , you know ? she 's always working every angle . that 's her whole thing . ravi : i had no idea . she seemed so nice . ashley : she 's not nice . you know , she actually hired two actors to pretend to be her sons . to hide the connection to her real sons . oh , and then after she and my father were married , her former husband , who 's supposed to be dead , tom fisher -- now that was a piece of work -- he shows up very much alive . but does gloria tell my father because it would make their marriage invalid ? no . she lies to him . she kept it hidden for months . and then there was the time she sneaked into my lab and deliberately tainted face cream with industrial solvent . ravi : why would she do a thing like that ? ashley : because she 's horrible , vile , evil human being . customers were hurt . my daughter , abby -- she was just a little girl . chemical burns . when it comes to gloria , the list is endless . ravi : i 'm so sorry . i mean , she really seemed nice . ashley : she 's not nice ! she 's a viper ! she 's horrible ! please , steer clear -- very clear of her . ravi : all right . gloria : jack abbott 's office . this is gloria . how may i help you ? oh , i 'm gon na have to put you on hold for a minute . excuse me . excuse me , ladies , but you just ca n't walk in without being announced . lauren : really ? watch this . good morning ! jack : lauren ! hello . you 're looking lovely today . lauren : why , thank you . are you all ready for our interview ? jack : rarin ' to go . phyllis : okay , enough with the small talk . what 's going on out there ? jack : out where ? phyllis : outside your office . you do know who 's at the desk . jack : i am well aware that gloria has been hired as the new receptionist . i hired her . phyllis : what ? ! lauren : [ laughs ] oh , my god ! even after your scheme to undermine me failed , you were still forced to give her a job ? [ laughs ] oh , jack ! hilary : and i need you to make sure that the camera guys pick up their cues this time , okay ? [ sighs ] devon : hey . thank you . hilary : i can not believe that you sent michael here with this insulting document . devon : what 's so insulting about me trying to protect myself from a lawsuit ? hilary : from me ? devon : yeah . from you . i 'm trying to make sure you do n't come after me in the future looking for a pay day . hilary : how many times do i have to tell you that i do n't want -- devon : you do n't want anything from me , right ? hilary : i do n't ! devon : okay , well , if you 're being honest about that , put it on paper and make it official . hilary : [ scoffs ] this is n't about protecting yourself legally . you 're trying to humiliate me . devon : i 'm not a vindictive person , so i do n't know why you 'd think that . hilary : because you 're saying that ... everything that we 've been through together , everything that we meant to each other , it 's now meaningless . [ scoffs ] what on earth are you thinking , devon ? hmm ? that i 'm gon na lie in the weeds , i 'm gon na wait until you 're vulnerable , and then i 'm gon na pull some kind of sneak attack ? devon : well , it would n't be the first time that you broke my heart . cane : and this is after jill invited the three of us to buy her out . together . but now victoria just wants to unilaterally change the agreement in her own favor . victoria : i wish you were n't determined to see this in the worst possible light . cane : well , what light would you like me to see this in ? victoria : i 'm not trying to take brash & sassy ! away from you . you have incredible value . i value your input . your role 's not gon na change . cane : but of course it 's gon na change because i wo n't own part of the company anymore , which means i wo n't be part of the decision - making process , which means i 'm gon na make less money and i 'm gon na spend my day arguing with him , which you 're gon na referee in his favor , are n't you ? victoria : all right , look . i understand why you 're upset , but think of it this way -- how many times have i sided with you and overruled billy ? billy : let 's not do the math on that one . victoria : and i see your point of view , too . this company needs one vision going forward , not three . cane : yeah , but that 's your opinion . victoria : if that 's the way that you want to see it , fine . lily : why do n't you take some time , think about it ? i 'm sure you guys can all come to some sort of agreement . cane : no . no . no . no , i do n't need to take time to think about it . let me be really honest with you . it is not going to happen . okay ? lily : [ sighs ] cane . billy : just let him go . he 's being a jerk . lily : really ? is that your expert opinion ? victoria : obviously , since you 're the one being the jerk . billy : what -- i just agreed with you . victoria : look , uh , lily , let 's just cancel the meeting for today . we 'll deal with the launch day interviews later . maybe you can talk to cane and help him see that this is happening . lily : okay . sorry . lily : do you think caffeine is the best idea right now ? cane : what was that about back there ? what was that about ? and please , please do n't say you agree with victoria . please do n't say that to me . lily : cane , listen . i know how important it is for you to be back in the business world . but the constant fights with billy on top of the burden you 've had to carry -- that kind of stress is n't good for you . cane : well , there would n't be any stress if billy and victoria pulled their weight , would there ? lily : well , now the burden will solely be on victoria . cane : okay , and where does that leave me ? where does that leave me ? all right ? just , what , constantly being told what to do by billy and victoria ? no . lily : cane , just -- cane : no . no . no . it 's not gon na happen , okay ? jill made this offer to the three of us , all right ? so i 'm not gon na walk away from this opportunity because , what , victoria wants to be selfish . it 's not gon na happen . lily : okay . i get it . cane : so i 've called our broker , okay ? and if i can free up the funds , i 'm gon na go and see jill . i 'm gon na pitch her directly . victoria : my banker 's getting my cash ready , so as soon as jill and i can make a deal , i 'll be good to go . billy : i 'm happy for you . victoria : you really mean that , do n't you ? billy : yeah , of course i do . i got to be honest , when you first mentioned it , it threw me for a loop . you scooping the company up for yourself -- sounds like something your father would do . victoria : god , why do people keep saying that ? [ sighs ] i guess dad is the one that encouraged me to go for it . billy : ah , there it is . i 'm not surprised . victoria : i 'm glad you agree that it makes sense because , to me , it -- it almost feels like destiny , in a way . billy : well , that 's good 'cause i know you 're gon na do a fantastic job . you wo n't have cane to argue with , and if you 're serious about keeping me on , you know i 'll have your back . victoria : yes . you can be vice president in charge of pep talks . billy : uh , executive vice president . victoria : wow . you drive a really hard bargain , do n't you ? billy : i do , and to prove that i 'm a hard worker , i actually have some ideas for the new men 's line , if you are interested , of course . victoria : yeah . absolutely . billy : okay , well , if you think about the new body spray , now we added gift package onto it . victoria : billy , before you launch into that , i have a question . billy : shoot . victoria : was cane right ? were you hoping to get back into my bed ? billy : would you be surprised if i said yes ? jack : and i want to make sure we get to discuss the opportunities for vertical integration , something like , `` because of this merger , the makers of your favorite accessories and cosmetics will be able to bypass the middle man , offering exclusive products at fenmore stores . `` lauren : you know , i hate to interrupt , but i am having such a craving for those chocolate croissants . you know , the ones from that little bread store downstairs . could you buzz your receptionist to bring me one ? phyllis : you know , that reminds me -- i actually do have a few notes that need to be transcribed . perhaps your receptionist outside could do it , jack . jack : if you need an assistant , phyllis , i can see that gloria is transferred to your department . no ? i did n't think so . could we please get back to this discussion ? phyllis : i would like to know why you hired gloria . i mean , you could n't give her a cushy job in one of your satellite offices in siberia ? jack : as i said to ashley , why not have gloria close by where we can keep tabs on her ? lauren : hmm , an unsupervised gloria is a dangerous one . phyllis : okay . jack : amen . phyllis : so i know ashley had a fit when she found out about this . jack : you 're talking about the past . i would like to forge into the future . is n't that what this whole interview with hilary is supposed to be about ? lauren : oh , absolutely . jack : good . okay . well -- ooh . ten minutes till . we better get going . phyllis : here you go . lauren : oh . honey , thank you . phyllis : i have to get to a meeting , okay ? lauren : yes . phyllis : break a leg . lauren : thank you , darling . jack : we have our interview with hilary . gloria : yes , of course , mr. abbott . i know you 'll both be brilliant . uh , but lauren -- lauren , darling ! darling ! darling , are you really going to wear that ? it 's not really your color ! ravi : i added all the features you wanted to jabotgo . the eyebrows pencil in thin or thick , and the algorithm determines what season you are based on the photo you upload . ashley : it 's so good ! i mean , it 's brilliant ! as usual . how do you do it so fast ? ravi : well -- [ knocks on door ] phyllis : hello . i 'd come in , but i think you would need a crowbar to get us all out again . ashley : we 're in the middle of something . phyllis : actually , i made an appointment with him . ravi : it 's true , she did , but um , i actually did n't confirm . phyllis : ashley , may i have word with you , please ? ashley : um ... ravi : you know what , my hardware guy needs me . i 'll be right outside . [ door closes ] phyllis : i know that you resent having to share ravi , especially since i tried to hire him from you . but you did lay down some ground rules , which i am following . which is why i went through the exercise of making an appointment with him . i am following protocol . i am taking nothing for granted . ashley : mm , that 'll be the day . phyllis : ashley , we are after the same goal . we are trying to make this merger a success . could we put our differences aside and try to work together , for once ? it is what jack would want . ashley : you do n't know what jack would want . phyllis : i know what jack wants better than anyone . and i am trying very hard to be a part of his team . and this attitude of yours is not helping . ashley : you know what , do n't pretend that you 're concerned about jack after the way you betrayed him . he 's been making choices that are not in this company 's best interest or his own , and you know what ? they lead back to one person , and that would be you . phyllis : okay , i am tired of you blaming me for every bad thing that your family goes through . ashley : i do n't care ! i 'm just calling it the way i see it , phyllis . the way that you and billy -- phyllis : oh , stop it ! i get it ! you do n't have to remind every five seconds . that 's why i left jabot and i went to work for lauren ! i found a new project i got totally absorbed in . because i have no desire to live in hell anymore . the pain of being around your brother , knowing what i destroyed , seeing the contempt in his eyes every time he looks at me ? i could n't take it anymore . so i moved on . and then what happens ? jack buys 49 % of the company . and here i am again . so , believe me , it is the last thing i wanted . ashley : you 're so concerned about jack , but it 's always about you . phyllis : i need you to understand something . if you 're worried that i 'm going to lure your brother back into a romantic relationship , do n't be . because i am on a new path , and it is one that does not include jack abbott . ravi : so if you could just drop off those drives , i 'd owe you big time . gloria : young man ! young man ! whoa ! whoa ! whoa ! whoa ! whoa ! oh ! ooh . i - i tried to warn you , that you were going to hit my new plant , but you were too busy talking on the telephone . lily : when 's the broker supposed to call ? cane : um , any time now . i told him , uh , jill 's about to pull the trigger , so i need an answer right away . lily : okay , and i have to ask -- is there any way that you could be happy working for victoria ? cane : no . no . no , no . we have no history together . so she does n't have the loyalty for me the way that jill does . you know , i mean , sure , she would keep me on , but it would be in what capacity ? i mean , all my ideas would get lost in the shuffle . you know ? i mean , i 'm a partner now and they do n't consult me on anything , so it 's only gon na get worse . lily : look , i do n't blame you for being frustrated , but victoria must realize how indispensable you are . cane : you know , all she wants to do is run the company and keep billy by her side so he can tell her that she looks good , all right ? the moment i walk out the door , they 're gon na forget about me . [ cell phone rings ] cane : [ sighs ] it 's the broker . lily : fingers crossed . cane : hey . this is cane . hilary : so , are you guys ready for the interview ? lauren : [ laughs ] well , as ready as i 'll ever be . jack : i 'm sure hilary will take it easy on us . michael : you 'll both be great . lauren : oh ! hi , sweetheart ! i was n't expecting you . michael : well , i just wanted to be here to cheer you on . lauren : aww , that 's so sweet . hilary : so sweet . now , who is ready for some of that pancake makeup that we love to slather all over you ? jack : lead the way . michael : break a leg . mwah ! lauren : okay ! thanks , babe . michael : so . she refused to sign the document . what are we gon na do ? devon : of course , she did , which only confirms that she 's after something . i just wish i could figure out what the hell it is . cane : all right , ted , this has to happen right away . no . no , no , no . i ca n't wait a year . i have to be liquid now to jump in on this deal . [ groans ] well , what about the other accounts ? [ sighs ] there 's got to be a way we can do this . no . no . no . no , i ca n't -- i ca n't take out a loan . i ca n't borrow any more money . it 's too much debt . no . [ sighs ] okay . all right . thanks . lily : what happened ? cane : even if i cash everything out , it 's , uh -- it 's not enough money . i 'll have to take out a loan , and it 's too risky . i wo n't do that to us . lily : cane , i 'm really sorry . i know how much you wanted this to work . cane : it 's not over . i 'm not giving up this easily . i 'm not gon na do that , okay ? if victoria thinks that she 's gon na roll right over me , no . she 's in for a rude awakening . billy : 10 : 00 on tuesday . that is perfect . fantastic . i look forward to it . thank you . victoria : thank you for taking that meeting . billy : you 're welcome . vick ... about what i said before ... victoria : you were honest . that 's -- that 's good . i asked you a question , and you answered it , so there 's no need to dwell on it at all . billy : can you look at me , please ? hey . i screwed up . our marriage is over , and that 's on me . and i would be lying if i said i did n't think about what we had . victoria : i 'm not sure i want to hear this . billy : well , i 'm not sure i want to say it , but cane brought it up and it obviously struck a nerve for both of us . we had our share of bad times , but we had a lot of good ones . the bad ones were really , really bad . but the good ones were ... really , really great . victoria : great . hilary : so , fenmore 's and jabot -- what an unbeatable combination . jack : we certainly thought so . hilary : so , tell me , how did this merger come about ? jack : well -- lauren : i want fenmore 's to be the fashion and beauty destination . you know , we are going to be presenting clothes , shoes , accessories , skin care , beauty in very unique , different ways . i 've been working with jabot for years very successfully , and seeing that i 'm going to retain control of my company with the majority stake , i want to make sure that our customers understand that fenmore 's will continue to bring them the best merchandise and the same stellar service that they have always enjoyed . hilary : that 's tremendous , lauren . i am so pleased for both of you . lauren : thank you , hilary . and now to answer your question , jack approached me a few weeks ago to explore the poss -- gloria : [ chuckles ] big brother 's really not holding his own . lauren 's stealing his thunder , even in that dress . rolling right over him . ashley : you know , gloria , i dread to think what you 're holding over jack . it 's obviously something he does n't want me to know about . but , you know what , his choices have made me aware of the fact that there have to be some changes made around here . that 's why i 've decided to take a more active role in the running of this company . it 's painfully obvious to me . nobody gives a damn about my father 's legacy or the future of jabot . i do n't like you . i do n't trust you . and i do n't want you anywhere near my family 's company . you know , gloria , i guess what i 'm trying to tell you -- do n't get too damn comfortable around here . [ next_on ] paul : what are you doing ? what are you looking for ? sharon : divorce papers . reed : no , i -- look , i know it 's late there , but i need your help , dad . billy : the limbo . the hammock sex . | ashley is angry that jack hired gloria as his receptionist . she knows that gloria is blackmailing jack with something and she is determined to find out what it is so that she can get gloria out of jabot . ashley decides to take a more active role in jabot to protect her father 's legacy , because she thinks jack has been making reckless decisions ever since he found out about phyllis 's affair with billy . victoria tells billy and cane that she intends to buy brash and sassy on her own . billy is thrilled about the idea , but cane feels angry and left out . cane wants to raise enough money to buy the company himself but he is unable to . he is n't giving up because he ca n't work with victoria as his boss , because he has been doing most of the work to keep the company going while billy and victoria have had arguments and family dramas which have taken their focus away from work . devon is surprised when hilary once again refuses to take his money or sign papers giving up rights to his money in the future . devon is determined to find out what hilary really wants from him . | <s>[INST] jack : [ sighs ] gloria : ahh ! good morning . jack : why are you here so early ? gloria : very important day for you and lauren , being interviewed live on `` gc buzz . `` just want to make sure everything 's perfect . jack : okay , now the real reason you 're here . gloria : i knew you 'd probably show up early trying to avoid me -- no such luck . may i get you a cup of coffee , mr. abbott ?

phyllis : i love . you take a breath , a sip of coffee , and you find that happy place . lauren : oh , you mean back in bed , in my jammies ? phyllis : whatever works . you do n't want to look frazzled in front of the camera . lauren : [ chuckles ] no . i do not . i want to look cool and strong and focused so jack does n't dominate the interview and make it all about him and jabot . phyllis : yeah , well , that is typical jack -- instead of playing up the positive synergy , he could make it seem like he saved fenmore 's from financial ruin , which , you know , may be the truth , but it does not paint us in the greatest light . lauren : no , it does not . so how do we stop him ? cane : you know what , speaking of expanding r & d , that plays into my next thought . billy : lay it on me . cane : okay , brash & sassy ! used to be a teen line , but we 've got away from that . so once we buy the company , we should re - expand back into that market . billy : that does n't make any sense , cane . we just launched a men 's line . we do n't want to spread ourselves too thin . cane : what , you do n't think teenagers have money to spend on personal care products ? billy : did i say that ? no . i did n't , so do n't put words in my mouth . the point i 'm trying to make is that the amount of energy -- victoria : good morning ! it is so gorgeous out there ! i love it when it 's sunny after a snowfall . it 's so fresh and crisp and clean . billy : you 're in a good mood this morning . stop it . cane : well , that 's because she 's happy that we bought the company away from jill , and soon we 'll run it ourselves , billy . billy : well , that makes three of us . cane : you know , speaking of which ... she 's probably gon na be fair with us , but we should get our own attorney to have a look over the contract , make sure our interests are represented , okay ? billy : yeah , you 're thinking somebody from outside ? cane : absolutely . i 'll call michael . he 's got corporate experience . victoria : cane , would you hold off on that , please ? billy : no , i actually think that 's a good idea . the sooner we move on this , the better . victoria : well , i would like to discuss this later . i was thinking that i could take you both to lunch and we 'll talk about it then . billy : talk about what ? cane : yeah , i mean , if you have something you want to say , just say it now . what is it ? victoria : all right . i want to buy brash & sassy ! on my own . lily : just make sure this gets done . thank you so much . okay , well , i told daphne that we 'd be in touch . devon : okay , cool . i thought she interviewed well . what do you think ? think she can run this place ? lily : uh , i want to talk about that later , because what i want to talk about is hilary 's little melodrama last night . devon : you heard about that , huh ? lily : yeah , dad told me that she tore up a very large check that you gave her . devon : i was pretty surprised , too , because i thought that $ 250 million was quite generous . lily : please , this is hilary we 're talking about . why would she settle for 10 % when she feels she 's entitled to half your fortune ? devon : [ sighs ] i guess ... lily : devon , look . just face it , okay ? she 's not gon na stop until she has every penny she can get . devon : i know that she 's playing games with me 'cause she always does . lily : well , then , you have to get out in front of this before things get ugly . devon : you do n't have to worry about that because i already have . hilary : dave , can we go with the two - camera setup ? i do n't want to miss any reaction shots , okay ? michael : oh ! i 'm sorry . hilary : michael , um ... i 'm sorry , this is n't a good time . as you can see , i 'm extremely busy . michael : oh , i -- i just need a few minutes to discuss your divorce . hilary : i already told devon multiple times that i do n't want anything from him . what part of that does he not understand ? gloria : here you go . strong and hot , just the way you like it . jack : you can cut the act now , all right ? gloria : excuse me ? jack : i know this is n't the job you wanted . in fact , i 'm a little surprised you showed up today . gloria : need the money . now , where do we begin today ? jack : we ? gloria : mm , would you like to dictate a memo ? can i get someone on the phone for you ? roll some calls -- jack : no . thank you . i 'm fine . gloria : then what would you like me to do ? jack : i 'd like you to go back to your desk and try not to get into any trouble . gloria : yes , sir . i am gon na be a permanent fixture around here , so you might as well get used to it . [ sighs ] oh ! e - excuse me . do you have a meeting scheduled this morning ? i do n't see anything on mr. abbott 's schedule . ravi : no , i do n't , but -- gloria : no , no , no . why do n't you , um , just go over there and sit down , and i will check with mr. abbott . and , in the meantime , would you like a cup of coffee or tea ? ravi : uh , tea would be great . gloria : great . ravi : thanks . gloria : i bet you 're one of our computer geniuses , huh ? ravi : uh , i work in it . yeah . gloria : you have that look -- nerdy . but very easy on the eyes . ravi : uh , thanks . ashley : hey . ravi : hey . ashley : what are you doing , waiting out here ? ravi : uh , the receptionist told me to wait , so ... ashley : receptionist ? did jack hire somebody new ? ravi : well , evidently , i was n't on mr. abbott 's calendar this morning , so ... ashley : okay , that 's ridiculous . we 're not that formal around here , right ? ravi : yeah , you know , i -- gloria : here you go . tea . well - steeped . bag out . ravi : thanks . lauren : okay , you know jack much better than i do . how do i stop him from taking over the interview ? phyllis : mm , that 's a tough one . when he takes the floor , he pontificates and it makes it very difficult to get a word in edgewise . lauren : hmm . not helping . phyllis : how many times do you do that ? lauren : what ? phyllis : dab your lips after you take a drip from your coffee ? lauren : uh , i 'm dabbing ? i -- i did n't even know that i was . phyllis : at least a half - a - dozen times since we sat down . lauren : really ? phyllis : mm - hmm . lauren : huh . well , i guess we all have our own nervous tics . phyllis : gamblers call them tells . reliable ways of predicting behavior . you see , jack puts his hand in his hair every time he gets upset or angry . and he always smoothes his tie just before he jumps in on a conversation . you see what i 'm saying ? does this help you in any way ? lauren : phyllis ... phyllis : uh - huh ? lauren : i think you 're a genius . [ both chuckle ] lily : i mean , hilary could n't spend the kind of money that you offered her in two lifetimes . why ca n't she just take it and leave you in peace ? devon : she claims she 's not after my money . lily : well , if you believe that , michael would n't be there right now trying to reason with her . devon : oh , i figured it was worth a try , at least . lily : i mean , what does she think that she 'll accomplish by taking the high road ? that you 'll take her back or shell out even more ? devon : i have no idea . as much as i loved her , i never was able to read hilary 's mind , but i 've made it very clear that i 'm willing to pay a huge chunk of money to have this be over . lily : is that what you really want ? because sometimes i think you 're not so sure . michael : as i 'm sure you 're well aware , you and devon do not have a prenup . hilary : of course i 'm aware of that . so ? michael : so , my guess is that you 're thinking you can get more money out of him because of that , which is not how it works , at least not in this case . hilary : i 'm sure you 're gon na explain to me what makes this case so special . michael : yes , ma'am . first of all , devon 's wealth is mostly inherited , so the money and property katherine left him will not be part of any settlement . only the net gains he 's made on these assets since your wedding will be considered marital . hilary : i 'm sorry . should i be writing this down ? michael : secondly , your marriage was of a very short duration . you have n't exactly had years to get used to this lifestyle . third , you 're an educated woman with marketable skills , thereby independent means . you have held a job throughout this marriage and continue to do so . hilary : are you finished ? michael : devon is not now , nor has he never been your sole means of support . the judge is gon na hear that and he 's gon na be like -- hilary : stop it ! stop it ! okay , are you even listening to me ? i do n't want devon 's money . michael : the mere fact that he is offering you a settlement at all is extremely generous . $ 250 million -- that 's quite a bit of money . i suggest you take it , hilary . be done with this . give devon a chance for closure . hilary : i have a show to do . so i 'm gon na use my marketables and independent means to get back to work . michael : hilary , wait . i 'm not finished . stop . cane : jill made this offer to all three of us , okay ? so you ca n't just go and cut billy and me out . victoria : it 's a proposal , cane , not an edict . billy : has my mother okayed this ? victoria : i have n't discussed it with jill yet , but it 's something that i want very much . cane : well , i 'm sorry to tell you this , but you just do n't always get what you want 'cause that 's not the way life works , victoria . victoria : brash & sassy ! was mine , remember ? from the very beginning when it was created at jabot , it was always my baby , and when i went to newman , i took the line with me and i turned it into an entire division . it 's only right that i would have the first crack at buying it back . cane : do you have any idea how arrogant that sounds ? 'cause i worked really hard to make this company a success , okay , while the two of you have been off doing whatever it is the two of you do with your messy personal lives , okay ? so if there 's anyone who should own this company , it is me . billy : well , it takes money to do that , cane . cane : yeah , i 'm very well aware of that . do n't worry about it . victoria : do you see why -- this is why i wanted to have lunch , so we could sit down as friends and colleagues . billy : the kind of colleagues that end up fired after you sign the papers ? victoria : no , of course not . nothing 's gon na change . cane : oh , but everything is going to change . 'cause instead of working with you , i 'm gon na start working for you , and that 's unacceptable . victoria : would you have a problem with it ? billy : no . i hated the arrangement my mother made in the first place . cane : okay , well , of course you 'd side with her , 'cause you 'd say whatever it takes to get back in her bed , would n't you ? billy : my taking of victoria 's side has nothing to do with our relationship . cane : okay . billy : brash & sassy ! was hers , all right ? it was her favorite division until her father sold it out from underneath her . i bought it to keep it warm , and then my mother swiped it from me to use it as a tool to meddle in our lives . so it 's only fair that she gets what 's rightfully hers . it 's about time . cane : according to who ? billy : and second of all , it 's better to follow one person 's vision instead of doing everything by committee . we end up two against one , everybody 's pissed off , and nothing gets done . victoria : that is an excellent point , billy . cane : oh , that is an excellent point , billy . so you 're talking about the man you teamed up with , okay , to hire my wife behind my back . you 're talking about that man , right ? so of course everything he says is an excellent point while nothing i say matters . victoria : that 's not true . cane : oh , it is true . because i was manipulated then , and i 'm being manipulated now by the two of you , who just bring their messy dramas to work . i 'm talking about two people who have no idea what it means to operate professionally . billy : you ever hear of the phrase `` you catch more flies with honey ? `` cane : [ laughs ] okay . i 'm not gon na stand here and have you talk down to me , and i 'm not gon na stand here and let you take this opportunity away from me . it 's just not gon na happen . hilary : telling you has n't worked , so i 'm gon na show you . credit cards -- one , two , three . oh , and this was an anniversary gift . devon : hilary -- hilary : valentine 's day present . oh , this was `` just because . `` and this dress . i saw it at fashion week . i had to have it , so you -- you bought it for me . devon : okay . hilary , that 's enough . stop it , okay ? i get your point . hilary : i just want you to be happy , devon . devon : why you so willing to give up everything this time ? hilary : because loving me can kill you . you ran as far and as fast as you could to get away from me and you ended up in the hospital , all because i lied . and , come on , we both know i 'm gon na do it again . because that 's who i am , that 's what i do . i do n't want you to be collateral damage , so i am walking away . and i 'm not holding on , because you -- you deserve someone great . you deserve someone who could truly make you happy . you want to pretend that i only cared about your bank account ? [ scoffs ] because somehow , i do n't know , that makes you feel better ? you can pretend that i 'm not a real person , right ? a person that you actually cared about , a person that you -- that you actually loved . devon : hilary , i 'll tell you one last time . take this check 'cause it 's the best offer you 're gon na get from me . it 'll make life easier for the both of us , all right ? hilary : i 'm not for sale , devon . i never was . hilary : i thought you left . michael : no . i did n't . hilary : what is this ? michael : i advised devon to have you sign this , regardless of whether you take his check or not . it , uh ... well , in a nutshell , you relinquish all rights to his property and fortune in perpetuity . meaning you ca n't take him to court in the future . hilary : devon agreed to this ? michael : he did . hilary : why does he even need my signature ? is n't my word good enough ? michael : mm . not with so much at stake , no . ashley : are you high ? ! why would you hire gloria to scrub our floors , let alone be your receptionist ? jack : she 's broke . i gave her a job . it 's no big deal . ashley : i knew it when i walked in on the two of you yesterday that something was going on . what does she have on you ? tell me . jack : keep your friends close and your enemies closer . i thought it was smart to keep gloria working here where we could all keep an eye -- ashley : did you just say the word `` smart ? `` jack : personal feelings aside , even you have to admit she 's savvy , she has ... good instincts . ashley : oh , yeah . you know what ? you 're right . now that i think about it . i mean , gloria 's brilliant , like when she tainted our face cream . or she was even more brilliant when she conned our father into leaving her half of his estate ! so you 're right . when it comes to conniving and scheming , gloria 's instincts are the best . jack : are you through ? ashley : no ! jack : too bad , because i am . i 'm not firing gloria . you can take this elsewhere . ashley : god ! please follow me . gloria : have a lovely day , you two ! ashley : what the hell was jack thinking , letting that horrible human being into our family company ? he knew how i 'd react . ravi : i do n't mean to pry , but what is it about gloria you dislike so much ? i mean , did -- did she hurt you in some way ? ashley : she 's hurt everybody in my family , ravi . many , many times . she almost destroyed jabot . ravi : wow . ashley : she 's a gold digger . she conned my father into marrying her . she wants money , you know ? she 's always working every angle . that 's her whole thing . ravi : i had no idea . she seemed so nice . ashley : she 's not nice . you know , she actually hired two actors to pretend to be her sons . to hide the connection to her real sons . oh , and then after she and my father were married , her former husband , who 's supposed to be dead , tom fisher -- now that was a piece of work -- he shows up very much alive . but does gloria tell my father because it would make their marriage invalid ? no . she lies to him . she kept it hidden for months . and then there was the time she sneaked into my lab and deliberately tainted face cream with industrial solvent . ravi : why would she do a thing like that ? ashley : because she 's horrible , vile , evil human being . customers were hurt . my daughter , abby -- she was just a little girl . chemical burns . when it comes to gloria , the list is endless . ravi : i 'm so sorry . i mean , she really seemed nice . ashley : she 's not nice ! she 's a viper ! she 's horrible ! please , steer clear -- very clear of her . ravi : all right . gloria : jack abbott 's office . this is gloria . how may i help you ? oh , i 'm gon na have to put you on hold for a minute . excuse me . excuse me , ladies , but you just ca n't walk in without being announced . lauren : really ? watch this . good morning ! jack : lauren ! hello . you 're looking lovely today . lauren : why , thank you . are you all ready for our interview ? jack : rarin ' to go . phyllis : okay , enough with the small talk . what 's going on out there ? jack : out where ? phyllis : outside your office . you do know who 's at the desk . jack : i am well aware that gloria has been hired as the new receptionist . i hired her . phyllis : what ? ! lauren : [ laughs ] oh , my god ! even after your scheme to undermine me failed , you were still forced to give her a job ? [ laughs ] oh , jack ! hilary : and i need you to make sure that the camera guys pick up their cues this time , okay ? [ sighs ] devon : hey . thank you . hilary : i can not believe that you sent michael here with this insulting document . devon : what 's so insulting about me trying to protect myself from a lawsuit ? hilary : from me ? devon : yeah . from you . i 'm trying to make sure you do n't come after me in the future looking for a pay day . hilary : how many times do i have to tell you that i do n't want -- devon : you do n't want anything from me , right ? hilary : i do n't ! devon : okay , well , if you 're being honest about that , put it on paper and make it official . hilary : [ scoffs ] this is n't about protecting yourself legally . you 're trying to humiliate me . devon : i 'm not a vindictive person , so i do n't know why you 'd think that . hilary : because you 're saying that ... everything that we 've been through together , everything that we meant to each other , it 's now meaningless . [ scoffs ] what on earth are you thinking , devon ? hmm ? that i 'm gon na lie in the weeds , i 'm gon na wait until you 're vulnerable , and then i 'm gon na pull some kind of sneak attack ? devon : well , it would n't be the first time that you broke my heart . cane : and this is after jill invited the three of us to buy her out . together . but now victoria just wants to unilaterally change the agreement in her own favor . victoria : i wish you were n't determined to see this in the worst possible light . cane : well , what light would you like me to see this in ? victoria : i 'm not trying to take brash & sassy ! away from you . you have incredible value . i value your input . your role 's not gon na change . cane : but of course it 's gon na change because i wo n't own part of the company anymore , which means i wo n't be part of the decision - making process , which means i 'm gon na make less money and i 'm gon na spend my day arguing with him , which you 're gon na referee in his favor , are n't you ? victoria : all right , look . i understand why you 're upset , but think of it this way -- how many times have i sided with you and overruled billy ? billy : let 's not do the math on that one . victoria : and i see your point of view , too . this company needs one vision going forward , not three . cane : yeah , but that 's your opinion . victoria : if that 's the way that you want to see it , fine . lily : why do n't you take some time , think about it ? i 'm sure you guys can all come to some sort of agreement . cane : no . no . no . no , i do n't need to take time to think about it . let me be really honest with you . it is not going to happen . okay ? lily : [ sighs ] cane . billy : just let him go . he 's being a jerk . lily : really ? is that your expert opinion ? victoria : obviously , since you 're the one being the jerk . billy : what -- i just agreed with you . victoria : look , uh , lily , let 's just cancel the meeting for today . we 'll deal with the launch day interviews later . maybe you can talk to cane and help him see that this is happening . lily : okay . sorry . lily : do you think caffeine is the best idea right now ? cane : what was that about back there ? what was that about ? and please , please do n't say you agree with victoria . please do n't say that to me . lily : cane , listen . i know how important it is for you to be back in the business world . but the constant fights with billy on top of the burden you 've had to carry -- that kind of stress is n't good for you . cane : well , there would n't be any stress if billy and victoria pulled their weight , would there ? lily : well , now the burden will solely be on victoria . cane : okay , and where does that leave me ? where does that leave me ? all right ? just , what , constantly being told what to do by billy and victoria ? no . lily : cane , just -- cane : no . no . no . it 's not gon na happen , okay ? jill made this offer to the three of us , all right ? so i 'm not gon na walk away from this opportunity because , what , victoria wants to be selfish . it 's not gon na happen . lily : okay . i get it . cane : so i 've called our broker , okay ? and if i can free up the funds , i 'm gon na go and see jill . i 'm gon na pitch her directly . victoria : my banker 's getting my cash ready , so as soon as jill and i can make a deal , i 'll be good to go . billy : i 'm happy for you . victoria : you really mean that , do n't you ? billy : yeah , of course i do . i got to be honest , when you first mentioned it , it threw me for a loop . you scooping the company up for yourself -- sounds like something your father would do . victoria : god , why do people keep saying that ? [ sighs ] i guess dad is the one that encouraged me to go for it . billy : ah , there it is . i 'm not surprised . victoria : i 'm glad you agree that it makes sense because , to me , it -- it almost feels like destiny , in a way . billy : well , that 's good 'cause i know you 're gon na do a fantastic job . you wo n't have cane to argue with , and if you 're serious about keeping me on , you know i 'll have your back . victoria : yes . you can be vice president in charge of pep talks . billy : uh , executive vice president . victoria : wow . you drive a really hard bargain , do n't you ? billy : i do , and to prove that i 'm a hard worker , i actually have some ideas for the new men 's line , if you are interested , of course . victoria : yeah . absolutely . billy : okay , well , if you think about the new body spray , now we added gift package onto it . victoria : billy , before you launch into that , i have a question . billy : shoot . victoria : was cane right ? were you hoping to get back into my bed ? billy : would you be surprised if i said yes ? jack : and i want to make sure we get to discuss the opportunities for vertical integration , something like , `` because of this merger , the makers of your favorite accessories and cosmetics will be able to bypass the middle man , offering exclusive products at fenmore stores . `` lauren : you know , i hate to interrupt , but i am having such a craving for those chocolate croissants . you know , the ones from that little bread store downstairs . could you buzz your receptionist to bring me one ? phyllis : you know , that reminds me -- i actually do have a few notes that need to be transcribed . perhaps your receptionist outside could do it , jack . jack : if you need an assistant , phyllis , i can see that gloria is transferred to your department . no ? i did n't think so . could we please get back to this discussion ? phyllis : i would like to know why you hired gloria . i mean , you could n't give her a cushy job in one of your satellite offices in siberia ? jack : as i said to ashley , why not have gloria close by where we can keep tabs on her ? lauren : hmm , an unsupervised gloria is a dangerous one . phyllis : okay . jack : amen . phyllis : so i know ashley had a fit when she found out about this . jack : you 're talking about the past . i would like to forge into the future . is n't that what this whole interview with hilary is supposed to be about ? lauren : oh , absolutely . jack : good . okay . well -- ooh . ten minutes till . we better get going . phyllis : here you go . lauren : oh . honey , thank you . phyllis : i have to get to a meeting , okay ? lauren : yes . phyllis : break a leg . lauren : thank you , darling . jack : we have our interview with hilary . gloria : yes , of course , mr. abbott . i know you 'll both be brilliant . uh , but lauren -- lauren , darling ! darling ! darling , are you really going to wear that ? it 's not really your color ! ravi : i added all the features you wanted to jabotgo . the eyebrows pencil in thin or thick , and the algorithm determines what season you are based on the photo you upload . ashley : it 's so good ! i mean , it 's brilliant ! as usual . how do you do it so fast ? ravi : well -- [ knocks on door ] phyllis : hello . i 'd come in , but i think you would need a crowbar to get us all out again . ashley : we 're in the middle of something . phyllis : actually , i made an appointment with him . ravi : it 's true , she did , but um , i actually did n't confirm . phyllis : ashley , may i have word with you , please ? ashley : um ... ravi : you know what , my hardware guy needs me . i 'll be right outside . [ door closes ] phyllis : i know that you resent having to share ravi , especially since i tried to hire him from you . but you did lay down some ground rules , which i am following . which is why i went through the exercise of making an appointment with him . i am following protocol . i am taking nothing for granted . ashley : mm , that 'll be the day . phyllis : ashley , we are after the same goal . we are trying to make this merger a success . could we put our differences aside and try to work together , for once ? it is what jack would want . ashley : you do n't know what jack would want . phyllis : i know what jack wants better than anyone . and i am trying very hard to be a part of his team . and this attitude of yours is not helping . ashley : you know what , do n't pretend that you 're concerned about jack after the way you betrayed him . he 's been making choices that are not in this company 's best interest or his own , and you know what ? they lead back to one person , and that would be you . phyllis : okay , i am tired of you blaming me for every bad thing that your family goes through . ashley : i do n't care ! i 'm just calling it the way i see it , phyllis . the way that you and billy -- phyllis : oh , stop it ! i get it ! you do n't have to remind every five seconds . that 's why i left jabot and i went to work for lauren ! i found a new project i got totally absorbed in . because i have no desire to live in hell anymore . the pain of being around your brother , knowing what i destroyed , seeing the contempt in his eyes every time he looks at me ? i could n't take it anymore . so i moved on . and then what happens ? jack buys 49 % of the company . and here i am again . so , believe me , it is the last thing i wanted . ashley : you 're so concerned about jack , but it 's always about you . phyllis : i need you to understand something . if you 're worried that i 'm going to lure your brother back into a romantic relationship , do n't be . because i am on a new path , and it is one that does not include jack abbott . ravi : so if you could just drop off those drives , i 'd owe you big time . gloria : young man ! young man ! whoa ! whoa ! whoa ! whoa ! whoa ! oh ! ooh . i - i tried to warn you , that you were going to hit my new plant , but you were too busy talking on the telephone . lily : when 's the broker supposed to call ? cane : um , any time now . i told him , uh , jill 's about to pull the trigger , so i need an answer right away . lily : okay , and i have to ask -- is there any way that you could be happy working for victoria ? cane : no . no . no , no . we have no history together . so she does n't have the loyalty for me the way that jill does . you know , i mean , sure , she would keep me on , but it would be in what capacity ? i mean , all my ideas would get lost in the shuffle . you know ? i mean , i 'm a partner now and they do n't consult me on anything , so it 's only gon na get worse . lily : look , i do n't blame you for being frustrated , but victoria must realize how indispensable you are . cane : you know , all she wants to do is run the company and keep billy by her side so he can tell her that she looks good , all right ? the moment i walk out the door , they 're gon na forget about me . [ cell phone rings ] cane : [ sighs ] it 's the broker . lily : fingers crossed . cane : hey . this is cane . hilary : so , are you guys ready for the interview ? lauren : [ laughs ] well , as ready as i 'll ever be . jack : i 'm sure hilary will take it easy on us . michael : you 'll both be great . lauren : oh ! hi , sweetheart ! i was n't expecting you . michael : well , i just wanted to be here to cheer you on . lauren : aww , that 's so sweet . hilary : so sweet . now , who is ready for some of that pancake makeup that we love to slather all over you ? jack : lead the way . michael : break a leg . mwah ! lauren : okay ! thanks , babe . michael : so . she refused to sign the document . what are we gon na do ? devon : of course , she did , which only confirms that she 's after something . i just wish i could figure out what the hell it is . cane : all right , ted , this has to happen right away . no . no , no , no . i ca n't wait a year . i have to be liquid now to jump in on this deal .

chelsea : i think they 're with victoria . so maybe maybe we should call it a night to , you know , slip off before .... adam : before what ? chelsea : before you and victor can get into it again . maybe you should just get some rest , talk things out in the morning . adam : you mean put off a confrontation ? victor : that does n't sound like adam ... nor does it sound like me . abby : hey ! no sleeping in the lobby !

phyllis : oh , well , i bring my sparkling personality and i bring companionship . it 's not my fault that i 'm stuck here for the night . nick : `` the night . `` looks like you 're moving in . phyllis : been there , done that . nick : let 's just put it out there right now . can we agree that going there again would be a terrible idea ? phyllis : that never crossed my mind . nick : me neither . phyllis : me neither . feel the clarity of new additional sponsorship chance : mm . abby : you slipped out of the room while i was sleeping . chance : i wanted to let you rest . thought i 'd come down here and scout the lobby , see if there 's any other issues , and ... it 's so quiet , i guess i fell asleep . abby : i wore you out . chance : mm . abby : but you have done more than enough to help out . and hopefully by morning , all the power issues will be resolved , and the new shift will make it in . so there 's really nothing left to do tonight . so i really think that you should come back to bed . chance : really ? abby : and then tomorrow , i will dump the rest of the issues onto phyllis if she decides to show up . chance : actually , there 's one more thing that i need to take care of . abby : what ? chance : it 's not a big deal . i 'll meet you upstairs , okay ? abby : you 're not going out in the storm , are you ? chance : no , ma'am , i am not . abby : then why are you being so mysterious ? chance : look , it 's not really that big of a deal , so ... abby : does this have something to do with phyllis ? phyllis : oh ! that 's how it 's going to be ? nick : that 's how it 's gon na be because i 'm the man of the house . phyllis : the man of the house . my goodness . here , i 'll leave you that . you sound like your dad when you say that . nick : i 'm not taking that bait . if i was like my dad , i would have taken the gig at newman . phyllis : what gig at newman ? nick : he offered me the ceo job while vick gets better . wanted me to step in to keep adam out . phyllis : wow . i never thought i 'd agree with your dad , but ... you 've got to take that ceo seat . you have to take it , at least to keep adam out . nick : i 'm sorry i brought it up . phyllis : i 'm sorry you brought it up , too . listen . you 're gon na get your food back and your place back after i leave . you know , when dawn breaks . nick : if there 's any food left . phyllis : to my credit , i tried to leave . nick : hey , have you heard from our daughter ?

i mean , it prevented you from walking out for no reason . adam : well , i had plenty of reasons . i mean , you all but said i was n't qualified to run the company . you questioned my competence and my maturity . victor : and you proved my point . your first instinct was to flee . adam : well , sometimes disengaging is a way to control the dialog . victor : mm - hmm . adam : puts you in a more powerful position . but you already know that . victor : yeah , well . so , adam ... we 're back where we started . adam : mm - hmm . victor : i still need someone to run newman enterprises while victoria is recovering . adam : right . and i have made that clear that i am that person . victor : mm - hmm . you know , adam , i have no doubt that you 're a strong leader . you went to harvard business school , my goodness . you 're business savvy . but there 's still one other qualification that i 'm looking . adam : which is ? victor : i need to be able to trust you . [ crash ] my goodness . adam : well , it sounds like another tree fell . victor : yeah , maybe the heavens are trying to tell us something . chance : what makes you think that this has anything to do with phyllis ? abby : i was just guessing . but when i mentioned her name , your expression changed . chance : no , it didn't . abby : ever so slightly , it did . chance : look , abby , i want you and i have going forward to be based on trust and honesty . so that 's why i 'm not going to say anything more . abby : mm . as you pointed out earlier , i am still technically the owner of this hotel . so if you 're doing something under this roof , it affects me . so you really should fill me in . chance : that 's exactly why i shouldn't . i 'm saving you from being implicated in case something does go wrong . abby : wow . this is getting more intriguing by the minute . chance : abby , this is n't a game . everything is a game in its own way . i mean , you 're talking to the woman who created a fake jewelry heist to frame phyllis , so ... chance : i 'm sorry , but i can't . abby : you are no fun . chance : so i 've been told . i need you to do me a favor . abby : you 're asking me for a favor now . chance : i need you to log into the computer system . do anything that leaves a timed digital trail . abby : to give me plausible deniability . chance : i 'm saving you from having to lie . abby : i do n't mind lying if it 's to the right people . chance : sweetheart , you would probably win this argument , but i do n't have time to argue with you . lola : why do you constantly have to stir the pot ? theo : because it 's so tempting . and , admit it , a part of you enjoys it , too . lola : we have to keep the peace tonight . theo : all right . you 're right . so i 'm lucky i have you to keep me on the straight and narrow lola : theo . theo : well , it is hilarious . it takes two of them to play solitaire , though . theo : hey , um ... how about we , uh , choose a game all four of us can play ? kyle : go fish ? theo : mm . or , uh , maybe poker ? kyle : eh , we do n't have any chips . summer : mm . lola : um , i have a can of bar nuts . cashews for a dollar and walnuts for five ? theo : uh , money makes it more interesting . strip poker might be even more interesting . summer : oh , my gosh , theo , you are so predictable . lola : yeah . not happening , vanderway . summer : what i think we need is a reduction in testosterone in this immediate area . so , um ... i have heard through the grapevine that you 're a pretty good mixologist . theo : i can vouch for that . she 's a beethoven behind the bar . lola : good god . yeah , i mean , i think drinks are necessary for all of us . so ... you want to come with me ? i 'll give you some bartending basics ? summer : sure . yeah . i mean , i 'm usually on the consumption side of the bartender , tendee relationship . lola : okay , well , uh , those are our top shelf , of course , herbs , bitters , fruit , and this is a muddler . it 's going to be your best friend . and yeah , there are a million possibilities , so ... let 's go nuts . summer : sounds a little naughty .

[ sighs ] well , in the end , he 's not a spencer man , and ... i guess those are the only men who 've ever been able to truly capture my heart . brooke : is there something i should know about ? katie : no , no . just some ... office politics . brooke : okay . katie : how are you , uh , coming along editing the style sheet ? brooke : i 'm gon na need some help at some point . katie : well , bill taught me everything i know , so he can help you . brooke : are you sure ? it 's not too below you ? bill : everything crosses my desk sooner or later . i would be happy to help you . brooke : i heard a rumor . katie : oh . well , do tell . we thrive on those things around here . brooke : that liam may be resigning his position at forrester . bill : who told you that ? brooke : i still have my contacts over there . anyway , is it true ? i mean , i ca n't imagine it would be . liam and steffy make such a great team . besides , they 're engaged . katie : well , you 've been out of the loop for a while . brooke : i have been reclusive . you know that . katie : it is true . liam handed in his resignation . wyatt : was there a fight or -- or an argument or something ? quinn : no , no , no . it was nothing like that . wyatt : an amicable breakup between you and deacon ? quinn : i know . it sounds kind of oxymoronic . wyatt : hey , look , it 's no secret i 've never really been a fan of deacon 's , but i always thought that you were . quinn : yes , well , now that it 's over and done with for good , maybe you 'll believe me when i say deacon is a good man . wyatt : right . anyway , what happened ? did he move out or something ? where 'd he go ? quinn : well ... he went to europe ... i think ... to go and see hope . i do n't want to talk about this anymore , please ! wyatt : okay . it hurts too much -- i get it . quinn : no , it annoys me . it annoys me so much that steffy is alone , liam is gone , and you 're in here chatting with your mommy . wyatt : hey , i 'm the one who wanted to work here ! you 're the one who wanted to talk ! plus , when i left , she was n't alone . quinn : okay . well , then go . go help liam pack . i mean -- i mean , that 's doing something . look , steffy is available , and if you want the girl , go and get the girl . do you want the girl ? wyatt : it 's not that simple , mom ! i got a feeling that it 's -- it 's just -- it 's not done between those two yet . liam : are you sure you have n't already given up on us , steffy ? steffy : no . why would you think that ? okay , look , i ... i know i can be crazy sometimes . liam : not an excuse . steffy : you 're right . but the one thing i can tell you is that i 've learned my lesson . liam : how can you chalk this up to a lesson that you learned ? steffy : um ... you know , ivy 's partly responsible . you 're gon na blame her for what you and -- you 're gon na blame ivy for this ? really ? steffy : whatever you say . ivy drove me to it . liam : yep , okay . i 've heard enough . steffy : you 're still in love with her . liam : excuse me ? steffy : you 're still in love with ivy . that 's the only reason any of this makes sense . you have n't gotten over her . liam : no , steffy . there is one woman i 've never gotten over , and her name is not ivy . brooke : i thought liam loved his job . when did all of this happen ? bill : well , we heard about it after he got back from australia . brooke : he went to australia ? katie : [ chuckles ] bill : to deliver ivy to her homeland . brooke : oh , that 's kind of weird . bill : well , there 's been a lot of weird stuff going on with my son . brooke : well , look who sired him . katie : oh , you 're gon na fit in great around here . bill : anyway , uh , i have n't heard from liam . brooke : so , what 's he been up to ? bill : i guess he 's just taking it easy . that stuff with ivy could n't have been pleasant . katie : for liam or for wyatt . brooke : i suppose wyatt wo n't be too disappointed that liam would be resigning . katie : no , those brothers are very competitive -- when it comes to work and women . wyatt : steffy 's trying to fix this . she loves the guy , and he just keeps blowing her off . quinn : well , did he mention why he 's blowing her off ?

[ scene_break ] rex : bo , i really need to -- yeah , sorry , i should 've knocked . sarah : that 's okay , rex . i was just on my way out . rex : what 's going on ? sarah : cristian 's missing . rex : what can i do to help ? bo : we have just started the investigation . we have everything under control , balsom . rex : well , maybe i can make a few calls or -- bo : if we reach a point where i think that we need your help , i will bring you in . rex : hey . give me a call sometime . we 'll go over what happened with cristian , okay ? i owe it to him for taking you off my hands last summer . sarah : thanks , rex . bo : balsom ! what the hell did i just tell you ? rex : she 's not going to call me , do n't worry . if i know sarah , she 'll just go off on her own . bo : yeah , that 's exactly what i 'm afraid of ! so what 's up with you ? rex : uh , it 's not a big deal . i -- i can come back another time . bo : just sit down , sit down . okay . let 's have it . rex : my son hates my guts . [ scene_break ] manager : you can take her order , brody . gigi : i 'm not here as a customer . i work from 3 : 00 to 11 : 00 . manager : the only way you could work 3 : 00 to 11 : 00 is if you worked here . and you do n't . gigi : oh , look , i 'm sorry -- manager : `` sorry `` does n't cut it with me . you asked for a couple of days off , and you were gone a whole lot longer than that . you 're fired . [ scene_break ] starr : aunt dorian , i think it 's rude for you to tell langston that she 's wasting her time by her looking for a long - lost relative . dorian : was i suggesting that langston drop her search altogether ? starr : yeah , you kind of were . dorian : no . look , you of all people should -- should know that -- that family is terribly important to me . i was merely suggesting that langston put her search on hold for a while . langston : why ? dorian : because tomorrow 's the first day of school . we can have wayne laurie come over and jazz up our hair color . come on , you 've got to get the rest of your look together . starr : well , i already have my look decided . dorian : oh , really ? and did you think i would forget my favorite niece ? starr : really ? you got me something ? dorian : absolutely . i looked for things that would , you know , kind of flatter that darling little seven - month baby bump of yours . [ dorian chuckles ] starr : thank you . dorian : you 're welcome . langston : i guess we could take a break . [ dorian chuckles ] dorian : good . langston : what did you get ? let 's see . starr : ooh . [ starr and langston laughs ] ] [ scene_break ] jared : what money ? ray : what money ? what money , okay , okay . i 'm here for life . you want to play games , i got nothing but time . jared : okay , the deal i offered you is non - negotiable . i get you out of here , and you do as i ask when we get back to llanview . ray : this deal means nothing to me . i already got my own plan to get out of here . jared : looks like that 's working out real well for you . [ scene_break ] warden : i congratulate you . you 've done this country a great service , delivering such a criminal to us . carlo : can you assure me that plato is secure enough to hold this man ? warden : oh , yes . he has had his last taste of freedom . [ scene_break ] bo : while you were down in texas , you found out that shane is your son ? rex : gigi told me when she tracked me down and managed to get me out of that -- that wild , you know , dream i was having . bo : oh , yeah , yeah , yeah , dreaming . yeah , but you have a son . rex : yep . bo : thanks . how 's it feel ? rex : i liked shane from the moment i met him . he 's smart and funny and open . he 's an amazing kid . i 'm not saying he gets any of those really great things from me . all i did was donate my d.n.a . gigi 's the one who raised him , but i -- i ca n't help feeling really proud . bo : it 's a great feeling , is n't it ? rex : i just wish i had known before . i mean , i get why gigi kept it a secret . i ran off without a word , never looked back . she did n't even know she was pregnant till after i left . bo : sounds like she did n't have it easy . rex : no . she did n't even think that she would ever see me again . she had no reason to . she probably would n't have if i had n't followed marcie down to paris , texas . it 's weird how life works out . bo : yeah , wait a minute , um -- rex : what ? bo : the guy that showed up at your wedding , shane called him `` dad . `` rex : yeah , gigi spent 10 years raising shane by herself , and she did n't want him to think that his father was this deadbeat dad . so she made him think his father was this amazing war hero . they both thought he was dead until he walked into the church . bo : well , you have to let shane know that he has a real dad now . rex : i would , except shane 's already got the dad he wants . [ scene_break ] gigi : look , i 'm really sorry i was gone for so long , but i swear i was in a life - or - death situation . it was impossible to get back . manager : we 've all got our problems . mine is that i 've got a business to run , and you left me and high and dry . brody : it 's not like you hired someone else . manager : i will . brody : well , you better make it quick , unless you want to work another happy hour yourself . manager : i need someone dependable . brody : she just saved the guy 's life . she was dependable and i got a feeling she 'd go to the wall for the man who signs her paychecks . manager : talk 's cheap . you ready to put your job on the line for her ? gigi : hey , wait a minute -- brody : yeah . give her a second chance . she screws up , you can fire both of us . manager : what a deal . i 'm only doing this because brody asked me to , and he 's a vet . gigi : thanks . i appreciate this , brody . brody : sure . gigi : but it does n't change anything . i 'm still going to tell shane that rex is his father . [ scene_break ] jared : okay , look . i do n't know what kind of half - assed plan you have to get out of here , but you are looking at one guy that can make it happen today . so all you have to do is come with me back to llanview and do as i told you . ray : first , i will need some -- jared : i have no power to give you anything more than i have laid out . so , you can either sit around here in this lovely resort and plan your big escape , which we both know is not going to happen , or you can walk out of here a free man within the hour . it 's your choice . [ scene_break ] cristian : you 're not going to get away with this . i 'll find you , hesser . warden : what did you say ? what does he call you ? carlo : do n't believe anything this man says . he 's no ordinary prisoner . he 's a trained assassin who killed his own cousin . i suggest you take special precautions with him . warden : hmm . perhaps our friend here should begin his stay in solitary confinement . carlo : sounds lovely . warden : that way , you will be close at hand until you become fully acclimated . cristian : i 'm not a criminal . i do n't belong here . carlo : we 're all guilty of something , cristian . [ scene_break ] clint : what about natalie and jessie ? tina : they are both in big trouble . you see , jessica is not -- tess : [ as jessica ] dad , i have n't told you the entire truth . i 've done something terrible to natalie . [ scene_break ] natalie : jessica ? [ scene_break ] clint : jessie , come on . it ca n't be that bad . what happened ? tess : [ as jessica ] since nash died [ scene_break ] natalie : jess -- she must 've taken control . she 's going to tell dad what tess did . [ scene_break ] tess : i have n't been dealing with things as well as i 've pretended i have . clint : sweetheart , nobody expected it to be a quick process . tess : i know . and i asked natalie to move in here , and she did . and i -- you know , i did n't even give her a chance . clint : well , i thought it was far too early for you to be spending that much time together . tess : and mom did , too , and you know , i should 've listened because things are worse than ever . tina : yeah , i agree . uh , tell him all of it , jessica . tess : dad , i 've been trying so hard to work things out with natalie , but you know , taking care of bree , and the pregnancy . if i heard her say `` i 'm sorry `` one more time , it was just -- it was too much , and i just -- i snapped , you know ? clint : listen , i 'm sure that natalie understands that . tina : yeah , that is not the end of the story . tell him what else you did . [ scene_break ] ray : you make a strong case , mr. stuart . how could a man in my position refuse such a generous offer ? jared : then we are agreed . ray : yes . but i believe that where you 're from in the united states , it gets cold not long from now . could i have a coat ? jared : i will arrange a coat for you . and i will take care of introducing you to your niece . [ scene_break ] langston : so , what are we thinking , what are we thinking , huh ? starr : wow . dorian : `` wow , `` indeed . starr : i love it . dorian : i do , too . langston : oh , good . starr : so cute . dorian : is it too dressy for the first day of school ? starr : yes . langston : oh , yeah -- no , no . this is not first day of school . this is , like , going out , you know ? dorian : okay , okay . well , try on something else . langston : okay , all right . i 'll be back . starr : number two . dorian : so gorgeous . i have , uh , something else that 's very special for you . sit down . starr : oh , it 's a little small , do n't you think ? dorian : it 's for your baby , starr . starr : i think that marcie should have that . she 's going to be the one , you know , accepting the baby . dorian : you know , i have n't made a secret of the fact that i really do wish you 'd change your mind and raise your baby here with us as a cramer . i promise you , you 'll have all the help and support that you need . starr : aunt dorian , you need to accept my decision . dorian : of course . starr : thank you . dorian : hmm . starr : so how did you have time for all this anyway ? are n't you still running your big company ? dorian : oh , cramer enterprises is an international conglomerate . i own it , i 'm the boss , i get to do whatever i want . i just wanted to pamper my girls today . starr : well , if you really want to pamper langston , you should help her track down the montezes on her list . dorian : i 'm not going to interfere . i respect langston 's privacy too much to intrude . starr : it 's not what it was like when you thought that langston was pregnant . dorian : i learned from that experience . starr : like when you bought me these ? dorian : i 'm so busted . langston ? langston , are you almost ready ? starr : aunt dorian , before she comes , please , just think about helping langston . it 's hard for her to fit in here . dorian : well , i 've always felt she fit in perfectly . starr : i know , but it does n't mean that it 's not hard . and -- think of it this way . if we looked up all of the montezes , okay , crossed them all off this list , then langston would know for sure that we are her only family , and she can be that cramer woman that you always wanted her to be . right ? langston : i 'm ready . dorian : shh . starr : okay . langston : all right , how about this one ? starr : oh -- [ langston chuckles ] starr : you look like -- dorian : perfect . absolutely perfect . the perfect cramer woman , which is what i always thought she was . [ scene_break ] brody : i ca n't believe you 're still going through with this . gigi : what , telling shane the truth ? yeah , it 's a concept . brody : you heard shane last night . he hates rex . gigi : and you did n't have anything to do with that . brody : do n't put this on me . gigi : okay , i know . i 'm the one who started this whole lie and kept it going for way too long . now i 'm ending it . brody -- brody : what ? gigi : i would like for you to be there when i tell shane . brody : forget it . gigi : so that 's it ? you come in and you -- you play dad for all this time , and now you 're just going to cut and run ? brody : well , you just said it , gigi . it 's your lie . gigi : it was , until you made it a lot more complicated by faking a d.n.a . test . brody : i told you , i did that to protect shane because we had n't heard from you , and i was afraid something had happened to you . gigi : yeah , yeah , yeah , yeah -- you told me why you did it , but you never told me how . brody : what difference does that make ? gigi : you say you 're not going to be there when i tell shane the truth . well , the first thing he 's going to say is that there is scientific proof that you 're his father . i have to have an answer for that . how did you get a d.n.a . test to say that you 're shane 's dad when we both know you 're not ? [ scene_break ] rex : gigi made sure that shane fell in love with the idea of his hero father . and then brody showed up for real . shane 's crazy about him . bo : does this guy , brody , think that he is the kid 's dad ? rex : no . he knows it 's me . bo : hmm . did he know that when he showed up at the wedding ? rex : yeah . and he knows how gigi feels about me , and he still wants to be shane 's dad . bo : why ? what 's he want ? he wants gigi ? rex : probably . maybe he got a taste of the father figure and found out he liked it . bo : you want me to check into this guy ? rex : no , i already did that . i could n't get into his military files , and other than a couple of bar fights , he 's clean . bo : god , this is a tough situation . rex : yeah . what 's the truth going to do to that kid ? i only thought that charlie was my dad for a few months , and it knocked me on my ass when i found out the truth . bo : yeah , but do n't let what happened with you and charlie cloud your judgment . this is a totally different situation . rex : no kidding . shane 's got two guys that want to be his dad . when i was his age , i would 've been lucky to have one . bo : what 's the next step ? rex : i do n't know . bo : you know , i remember that shane was pretty crazy about you , too . rex : yeah , that was before . brody 's trying to turn shane against me , and it 's working . that 's why i 'm considering -- bo : what ? rex : maybe the best thing i can do for my son is not be his father . [ scene_break ] brody : i was in special ops . do you really think it was that hard for me to get a hold of some of rex balsom 's d.n.a . ? gigi : do you know how weird that sounds ? brody : do n't be cute . i did what i had to do to try to protect shane in case you and rex never came back . you put me in the middle of this situation , geeg . gigi : i know . i 'm sorry . brody : look , i made you a promise 10 years ago . i 'm just keeping it . gigi : 10 years ago , you thought you were going to come back home and you and shane and i would be a family . brody : and we are now . gigi : no , we are not . shane is rex 's son . oh , god , look , i 'm grateful for everything you 've done , but gratitude is as far as it goes . i 'm in love with rex and nothing is going to change that . [ scene_break ] bo : so , you 're willing to just step aside , let this guy brody just keep pretending that he 's your son 's father . rex : well , when you say it like that , it makes -- bo : how else am i going to say it ? rex : i would love to be shane 's father . i just -- i do n't want to screw up his life . bo : you 're sure that 's what you 'd do ? rex : i know what he 's been through . i know what it 's like growing up without a father , going to little league games and -- and peewee football when every other kid has his dad there watching . i should have been there . bo : and now ? rex : now shane has a dad he 's crazy about . bo : ah . rex : i remember how glad i felt when i thought that charlie was my father . you should see shane 's face whenever he 's with brody or whenever he talks about him . bo : you know , you keep talking about what it was like when you found out about charlie . what about when you found out that the whole thing was a lie ? now , can you guarantee that shane would never find out the truth ? what 'll it do to him if he does ? rex : tell me what to do . bo : no , no , no . balsom , you 're a grown man . this is your decision . rex : you 're right . whenever you are living a lie , it always hurts when you find out the truth . and the bottom line is shane 's living a lie . [ scene_break ] tina : i think you better tell him the whole story , jessica . clint : jessie , what are n't you telling me ? tess : [ as jessica ] you 're not going to let this go , are you auntie tina ? tina : no . sarah : mom ? tina : oh , sarah , we 're in here . what -- clint : sarah , what happened ? sarah : cristian 's missing . [ scene_break ] natalie : oh , my god . [ scene_break ] tina : i thought he came back from mendorra with you and talia . sarah : oh , he got bumped from our flight and he was supposed to be on the next one , but he never came home . clint : he went missing at the airport ? sarah : nobody knows what happened to him ? uncle bo thinks that carlo hesser got him . tina : no , no , no , that ca n't be . i mean , carlo is locked up in mendorra . i saw it on tv . sarah : he escaped . tina : what ? i mean , does n't anybody build a decent prison anymore ? tess : oh , my god . carlo hesser hates cristian . he hates the entire vega family . i mean , dad , he hates our family . clint : hesser went after kevin , asa , and viki . tina : and me . clint : but nothing is going to happen to anybody here . tess : dad , i think that we should be honest about carlo and what he 's capable of . i mean , if he could kidnap cristian in the airport with all that security , i mean , he can go after anyone . anyone . [ scene_break ] carlo : if i may , uh , i would like to be kept apprised of this man 's condition from time to time . warden : you need not worry . we know how to deal with violent offenders here at plato . carlo : oh - ho , i 'm sure you do . but this man led an uprising a few years ago at a prison in the united states . warden : hmm . so , my friend , you 're a murderer and an insurrectionist . do n't worry , after some strict obedience training , you 'll fit right in here . you take him . cristian : you 're not going to get away with this . i 'll kill you , hesser . i swear i 'll kill you ! i 'm not a criminal . he 's the criminal . el es al criminal ! no sueto ! [ scene_break ] jared : uh , warden . i was told i 'd have this entire area to myself ; there was to be no other visitors . warden : oh , mr. stuart , i assure you , you have nothing to fear . uh , mr. bern is very discreet . carlo : mortimer bern . jared : jeb stuart . carlo : i once knew another jeb stuart . perhaps you 're relatives ? jared : it 's a popular name in the south . excuse me . carlo : certainly . jared : warden . warden : uh , thank you again , mr. bern . were you able to reach an agreement with the inmate , mr. stuart ? jared : yes , he is changing into street clothes . warden : oh . jared : now , i trust there will be no delay in releasing mr. montez to my custody ? warden : hmm , there wo n't be any delay . jared : great . carlo : nice to meet you , jeb . [ scene_break ] tess : [ as jessica ] dad , with carlo hesser on the loose , we should really get some protection for our family , especially for sarah . sarah : why me ? tess : well , god , he tried to kill you in mendorra , did n't he ? tina : well , luckily , there are no waterfalls in llanview . tess : i know , i know , but i think that it 's clear that carlo is determined to get revenge on you , tina , for whatever he thinks that you did to double - cross him , and i 'm sure that he knows that you and sarah are back here in llanview . so who knows what he might do ? clint : yeah , she 's right . so we 're going to get extra security for the house and for sarah . sarah : mom , you have n't heard from carlo , have you ? tina : no . no , honey , you know , of course not . clint : you know , hesser would need a very good reason to risk returning to llanview . tess : and i 'm sure that , tina , you have n't done anything to give carlo a reason to come back here , right ? tina : no . of course not . clint : look , honey , i do n't want you going through anything else , so we 're going to take every precaution . tina : and , uh , sarah , i -- i 'm sure cristian 's going to be okay . why do n't we just get something to eat and you can tell me everything that you know -- clint : tina , wait a minute , wait a minute , wait up . you said that jessie did n't tell me the whole story about what happened with her and natalie . what is the whole story ? [ scene_break ] natalie : tina , please . [ scene_break ] rex : what do you think i should do ? i want you to tell me . [ bo sighs ] bo : the worst mistake that i ever made was not being there when my -- my son drew was growing up . i did just what you 're doing right now . i justified it by telling myself that he was much better off not being under the buchanan influence but that -- that 's nothing but an excuse . and i used it because deep down i was just afraid i 'd be a lousy dad . rex : shane could still end up hating me . bo : do you want him to be your son ? rex : yes . bo : okay . then you 've got to get the truth out , right now . no , he 's -- he 's probably going to be angry with you and with his mother . this is just the start . balsom , you know what i 'm talking about ? rex : yeah . what do you mean ? [ scene_break ] bo : i mean the days of you thinking of yourself first , those are over . every day you have to let shane know that you 're there for him , you know ? to hang out with him , to -- to talk to him about , i do n't know , school , sports , girls . you have to make him know that you are in it for the long haul . you 're his dad for life . believe me ; i know what i 'm talking about . i think about my son drew and , i 'll tell you , balsom , you do n't want to live with that kind of regret . [ scene_break ] gigi : brody -- brody : you made your point . gigi : i 'm sorry if i hurt your feelings , but i ca n't keep denying mine . i tried to convince myself for the last 10 years that i was over rex , but the minute that he came back into my life , i realized i was wrong . i love him . brody : you know , maybe it was good my mother told you i was dead . otherwise , we might have gotten married , had a -- had a kid or two of our own and then rex would 've showed up and screwed the whole family up . gigi : i really hate what i put you through , i do . but i 'm going to need you to do one more thing for me . i need you to let shane and me go . brody : you really think i did all this just for you ? you think i only let shane call me `` dad `` because i was so madly in love with you ? gigi : why did you do it ? shane : you were talking about me , were n't you ? [ scene_break ] dorian : magnificent . starr : it 's so good . dorian : it 's perfection . that is , if you like it . langston : no , i -- i like it . i just , you know , i think i might lose the hat . dorian : oh , no , no , no , no , no , do n't touch it . just give it a little bit more time . langston : okay , time , got it . dorian : good , good , good . and now , it 's your turn . yes , indeed , young lady . you have to try some of these things on . starr : do they have big hats , too ? because i would love to take it off and just hide my ginormous stomach with it . dorian : you look beautiful , okay , and when you see these things , i think you 're going to be very pleasantly surprised . starr : all right , wish me luck . langston : luck . [ langston chuckles ] langston : so , you did n't have to buy me all these new clothes . dorian : i wanted to . i wanted to do something special for my girls and make them happy . [ langston sighs ] dorian : sweetheart , what 's the matter ? langston : nothing , it 's -- when you call me one of your girls , i feel so special . and now i feel guilty . dorian : why ? langston : because some phony psychic tells me that i may have a relative out there somewhere , and i 'm all over it . i mean , why am i looking for someone that i do n't even know just because we share the same last name ? you , starr , and blair , you show me a real family , right here . [ scene_break ] jared : ready to go ? ray : yes , i am . i 'm so anxious to , uh , meet my niece . what was that odd name again ? jared : langston . [ scene_break ] tina : jessica is not telling the whole story . [ scene_break ] natalie : just say it , aunt tina . just say that she 's tess . [ scene_break ] tina : jessica told me that natalie is being very pushy , very pushy and demanding . [ scene_break ] natalie : i do n't believe this . she 's got aunt tina fooled , too . [ scene_break ] clint : maybe i should have a little talk with natalie . tess : [ as jessica ] oh , dad , it 's okay . that 's not necessary . clint : oh , sarah , i 'm going to do everything possible to make sure that cristian gets back safely . sarah : thanks , grandpa . tina : yeah , come on , sweetie . tess : oh , aunt tina , i -- i just really wanted to thank you for making me tell the truth to my dad about natalie and i , you know ? it feels so much better to get that off my chest , you know ? tina : hmm . yeah . good . i want what 's best for you . tess : yeah , tina , you 're a real gem . tina : yeah . clint : jessie , i do n't want you to fret about this situation with natalie . tess : thanks , dad . i -- i think maybe i was wrong to ask her to move in here . i just think that [ scene_break ] natalie : dad , please -- ca n't you see what she 's doing ? [ scene_break ] clint : are you going to be all right , sweetheart ? tess : yeah , dad , thanks . clint : all right . do n't you worry about carlo hesser , either , because i 'm going to get a hold of uncle bo about that . tess : oh , please do that . clint : yeah . and if you want , i could have that talk with natalie . tess : oh , no , dad , it 's okay . hmm , i have everything under control . clint : all right . i love you . tess : i love you . tess : [ as herself ] like i said , i 've got everything under control . [ scene_break ] natalie : you bitch . [ scene_break ] warden : good luck in your new life , montez . make the best of it because if you return to plato , it wo n't be so quite comfortable for you . jared : uh , take him to the limo , please ? ray : i got a limo ? jared : hmm , only the best for friends of the family . oh , and do n't be getting any ideas , montez . we have the power to get you out of here . that means we have the power to put you right back . warden : let 's go . [ phone rings ] clint : jared ? give me good news . jared : it 's done . clint : any problems ? jared : none . we should be back in llanview by the end of the day . clint : and i should have the company back from dorian by the end of the week .

[ bo sighs ] bo : the worst mistake that i ever made was not being there when my -- my son drew was growing up . i did just what you 're doing right now . i justified it by telling myself that he was much better off not being under the buchanan influence but that -- that 's nothing but an excuse . and i used it because deep down i was just afraid i 'd be a lousy dad . rex : shane could still end up hating me . bo : do you want him to be your son ? rex : yes . bo : okay . then you 've got to get the truth out , right now . no , he 's -- he 's probably going to be angry with you and with his mother . this is just the start . balsom , you know what i 'm talking about ? rex : yeah . what do you mean ?

heather : it 's a blt ! anybody that does n't see that does n't deserve to own this . [ crowd murmuring ] heather : what ? you call yourselves art lovers , yet you fail to see that this painting immortalizes the bacon , lettuce , and tomato ? bread , perfectly toasted . bacon , ultra crispy . romaine lettuce , beefsteak tomato , and a hint and just a hit of mayonnaise , just like they do it at kelly 's . derek : who the hell is this woman ? sam : it 's heather webber . she 's supposed to be locked up . silas : heather . heather : you stay away from me . stay away ! kiki : michael , be careful . olivia : sonny , you do n't think it 's possible , do you ? morgan could n't ... michael : morgan knows you do n't want anyone in here , but , uh , he insisted on returning this . olivia : sonny ? kiki : michael , she has a knife . sam : silas . silas : yeah , i got it , sam . sam : do n't bet on it . you have no idea what she 's capable of . heather : blt , meet dr. clay . dr. clay , meet blt . you two would know each other a lot better if you 'd kept your promise to deliver a kelly 's blt to me once a week in exchange for my dna . by the way , how is danny ? sam : keep my son 's name out of your mouth . heather : i guess you forgot about our deal . but mark my words -- no one will forget about me or kelly 's sandwiches anymore . the reuben ... silas : sounds like fun , but i think i 'm gon na call a cop . heather : ... the roast beef .... and the tuna ... of course ... all hung wrong ! and then we have kelly 's sandwich of the day , a special served only at the height of tomato season . max : the caprese . heather : yes ... hung wrong ! diane : for the love of everything that is cartullo , please tell me that this is a performance piece . okay , i 'm gon na take that as a `` no . `` heather : wrong -- just so wrong . derek : i just got a text . looks like lazaro just dropped out of the race for d.a . heather : and just look at these ! look at these ! scott : who let heather out ? lucy : i do n't know , but , obviously , no one at miscavige knows how to work a straitjacket . heather : all wrong ! derek : i take it you gave baldwin the good news -- that his opponent 's in bed with sonny corinthos , metaphorically speaking , of course ? morgan : yeah . yeah , i threw my dad under the bus , just like you asked . derek : morgan , morgan , morgan . i think this is gon na be the beginning of a beautiful friendship . olivia : it ca n't be . sonny : a bug . olivia : morgan planted that in here ? sonny : my son , my own flesh and blood . morgan betrayed me . silas : hey . alexis : hey . sorry m late . what did i miss ? silas : nothin ' . heather : now , that 's the way it should be . alexis : is that heather webber ? sam : yeah , in all her whacked - out glory , mom . alexis : what is she doing here ? scott : heather is completely unhinged . lucy : you think ? she threatened to accuse us of breaking her out of that institution just so we could have a ménage three . scott , what if she tries to `` sextort `` you ? you have just become the district attorney . that would be absolutely terrible . scott : you think ? lucy : [ sighs ] derek : i just managed to strike a major blow against your father -- or should i say , `` we `` ? you did good , kid . morgan : i 'd do it again . derek : with lazaro gone , sonny no longer has a d.a . in his pocket . and i have one in mine . olivia : maybe there 's some mistake . sonny : no mistake . my son did this . olivia : you 're positive ? sonny : it 's a bug ! it 's a clock that i gave my -- my -- morgan as a wedding gift . he came in here into my office , put it on the desk , and ... they were listening ! olivia : what did they hear you say ? sonny : the recording that lazaro 's talking about -- him and i , we had an understanding . olivia : yeah , yeah , i got that impression . sonny : but i pretty much spelled the whole arrangement . damn it ! they heard everything ! probably had something to do with what you saw morgan handing off to baldwin -- a recording of me and lazaro . olivia : why ? why ? sonny , i get it that morgan is angry , but would he really do this to you ? he goes to extremes to get involved in an election ? sonny : not on his own . olivia : so , you 're saying someone put him up to this ? sonny : julian , olivia . my son has thrown in ... with julian jerome . ava : in case you had n't noticed , julian , there is a madwoman brandishing a cheese knife at our art show . derek : where ? ava : perhaps you should appear more interested in that and less interested in morgan . derek : relax , would you ? i 'm just ... checking on something . diane : please tell me that heather webber is just having another one of her psychotic episodes . please tell me that when you told me that an obsessed fan painted all of these , you were n't referring to her . oh , god . franco : no , no . look , i never lied , okay ? i said it was a she , and i said that she was happy to do it . diane : you also told me that she wanted the world to appreciate her work . what you failed to tell me was she is certifiable and that she is heather webber ! oh , god . heather : you told me that you knew what the paintings meant . sebastian : forgive me , but i 'm not following here . you said you wanted to purchase the collection , yes ? but not until you heard what was behind every piece from the artist , and now you 're explaining it for him . diane : well , yes . there 's a very good reason for that . sebastian : but how are you able to interpret the work when franco clearly ca n't ? diane : because heather is his number - one fan . heather : yes , i am . diane : she has studied the works of franco . she is an expert in all things franco . heather : thank you . diane : only heather would know that franco is the only one who could elevate the sandwich menu to the realm of the sublime and the immortal . heather : not just any sandwich menu . diane : no , no -- the one and only kelly 's . but there is so much more going on here than meets the eye . these are not simply lunch choices . these are the layers of franco 's tormented angst sandwiched between the crusty , yeasty crusts of -- of his genius . bologna is not merely disks of processed pig -- no . it is -- it is the layers of franco 's soul sliced to fit the very -- the very bread of society . the reuben is rubenesque in its -- in its depiction of the tumor that tormented him for so long . the caprese is -- is ... sebastian : genius . diane : yes , it is genius , is n't it ? ! and only heather webber could speak for franco when franco can not speak for himself . franco : stop it . diane : no , just as his art ... franco : diane , will you stop it ? diane : ... is so elevated -- franco : please . that 's enough . diane : [ sighs ] franco : no more pretending . it 's over . heather : franco , do n't . diane : just listen to her . listen to her . i ca n't believe i just said that . ahh ! listen to her ! franco : look at these paintings . really -- look at them . i did n't paint these . heather did . diane : [ sighs ] franco : sorry ... for trying to pass heather 's paintings off as my own . heather : why ? franco : 'cause i suck at painting now . really , i 'm -- i 'm no good at it . heather : did you try ? franco : of course i tried . i tried and i tried , and ... a good friend told me that my painting was crap , and she was right . heather : does n't sound like a friend to me . franco : turns out ... when they sliced that tumor out of my brain , they sliced whatever talent i might have had along with it . i did n't know what else to do . heather : you were desperate . franco : and broke . and it was my birthday . and you showed up with that beautiful gift of your blt , and sebastian liked it so much that i manipulated you into painting more like it so that i could pass them off as mine . heather , i 'm so sorry . i am . and if you want to cut me to ribbons with that cheese knife of yours , i would n't blame you . heather : no , franco -- never . i forgive you . franco : well , i do n't expect anyone else in this room to -- to be quite so generous . i know ... i really thought , after the surgery , that i 'd be a better man , and i think that i am . i did n't know that it would turn me into a shoddy artist . look , to be clear , i 'd give whatever grain of creativity i ever had to be the kind of man that you want me to be . ava : leave it to franco to screw this up . what an idiot . hey . morgan : yeah ? ava : are you all right ? my brother get to you ? morgan : no . ava : but someone did ? morgan : yeah -- olivia . ava : is she here ? morgan : no , i just -- i ran into her earlier . she just gave me this bull about how much my dad loved me . ava : oh . that could not have been easy to hear . morgan : whatever . obviously , she was just working me . ava : mm . and did it work ? did olivia get to you ? morgan ? are you having second thoughts about working with julian and me ? olivia : you think that morgan is working for julian jerome ? sonny : why else would ava let morgan shack up with her ? he 's a kid , for god 's sake , and who was married to her daughter . olivia : maybe ava 's just trying to stick it to carly . sonny : or maybe she 's just trying to soften morgan up so that scum - of - the- earth brother of hers can get him on their side . olivia : what kind of monsters prey on a hurt boy ? morgan is obviously in pain . he 's confused . he 's obviously blaming you . sonny : well , it 's an ultimate way to get back at me . i never thought that my own son would hate me enough to do something like this . olivia : morgan does not hate you . sonny : no ? olivia : no . sonny : then what is this about ? olivia : no . he 's confused . his feelings are blown up into a million pieces right now , sonny . they 're going this way . they 're going that way . but i saw him . i looked into his eyes . i saw his body language . sonny , that kid still loves you . he just does n't know what to do with it right now . sonny : well , he sure knows what to do with this , olivia . olivia : has it occurred to you that maybe morgan did n't have a choice ? sonny : everybody has a choice . olivia : in this business ? really ? ava and julian are very powerful people . how do you know they 're not forcing him to work for them . they could even be threatening to kill him . ava : it 's okay , morgan . you can say anything to me . do you want to back out of this ? morgan : no . ava : are you sure ? morgan : yeah . forget olivia . she 's made it real clear that she 's team sonny . tsk . she 'll do anything to make him feel better about himself ... if that 's even possible after screwing me over . kiki : i just feel so bad for franco . his whole life , he 's been known for his art . michael : he was known for a couple of other things , too . kiki : okay . well , the only good thing then , and now it 's gone . to be outed in front of a roomful of people like that -- that 's humiliating . what is so fascinating ? michael : morgan . he and your mom seem closer than ever . kiki : yeah , i just do n't understand . why would he be all over her , especially after we tell him that she 's the daughter of a crime lord ? michael : maybe because he 's the son of one . i think that 's why morgan 's acting like this -- to stick it to my dad . olivia : admit that it 's possible the jeromes are strong - arming morgan . sonny : yeah , it 's possible . but if that 's the case , then he should have come to me to let me protect him . olivia : well , maybe we 're talking a matter of life or death , sonny ! sonny : i do n't care what we 're talking about ! i do n't care if they 're forcing him or he 's doing this on his own will . it 's got to end tonight ! olivia : okay . what does that mean , sonny ? and do n't even think about trying to keep me out . sonny : you brought this information to me . olivia : yes , i did . and it means i 'm in it . there 's no turning back . sonny : there 's something that you have to keep to yourself . other -- you know , usually , i tell you to wait outside the room . you know that , right ? olivia : are you asking ? sonny : you want me to ? i , uh -- i 've worked everything out . julian jerome dies tonight . and this time , he ai n't coming back from the dead . scott : officers , this is heather webber . she has escaped from miscavige institute . please disarm her , read her her rights . heather : disarmament wo n't be necessary . i do n't want to cause franco trouble . carly : it 's a little late for that , do n't you think ? alexis : a - a - a - nd she 's cuffed . sam : thank god . silas : is it just me , or does something really bizarre happen every time we try to go out ? sam : [ chuckling ] actually , i think it is you . silas : [ chuckles ] i thought so . scott : ladies and gentlemen , lazaro is conceding in the race for district attorney . the mayor has asked me to pick up the reins , effective immediately , so here we go . i have promised you good people that i would clean up the crime in this town , and i intend to do that , starting with the prosecution of these two criminals to the full extent of the law . heather : you ca n't do that . scott : i can , and i will . you have been escaping from miscavige over and over again , and that is a travesty and that will stop , let me assure you . and you -- i do n't know how you have n't been prosecuted . that boggles my mind . but you will pay for these crimes -- perpetrating fraud , aiding and abetting heather here in her escapes , and trying to make a profit off of stolen goods . officers , take 'em . heather : scott , no , please . punish me if you want , but you can not hurt franco . scott : why ? heather : because he 's your son . i 'm telling you , you 're franco 's father , and i can prove it . michael : okay , wait . hold on . you want us to believe that jason 's parents are susan moore and scott baldwin , not alan quartermaine ? heather : who cares about jason ? sam : what the hell are you talking about ? alan was jason 's father , and susan , your cousin , was jason 's mother . michael : jason and franco are twins . pretty sure it 's not possible to have different fathers . heather : it is if they 're not really twins . in fact , franco and jason -- they 're not even brothers . franco 's no more a quartermaine than kiki is . sam : wh - what ? how ? heather : sometimes , as we all know , mothers lie about these things . [ crowd murmuring ] franco : okay , heather , look -- i appreciate you making up this outrageous story to spare me prosecution , but there no way that this man is my father . scott : now there 's something i can get behind . officers , take her away . carly : wait ! heather says she has proof , so let 's hear it . if franco is n't jason 's twin , then who is he ? olivia : so , we 're back to this now -- taking out julian jerome ? honey , no . no . we already talked about this . sonny : julian forced my hand . i did n't have a choice . olivia : who just told me that there 's always a choice ? sonny : it 's done . max is at ava 's art gallery right now . olivia : franco 's show is going on there tonight . you ca n't just open fire on a roomful of people , sonny . you remember what happened when someone tried to take out fra -- sonny : do you have to remind me ? olivia : well , i think maybe i do . sonny : when i saw you on the ground of that terrace -- i 'm not gon na let that happen again . olivia : because you 're just that good ? sonny : i got max ... waiting on julian , and shawn is outside the place . olivia : waiting for julian ? sonny : he knows ... not to make a move unless the coast is clear . olivia : so , that 's it , then ? end of the conversation ? sonny : julian jerome dies tonight , alone and miserable ... like the filthy rat that he is . carly : go on , heather . you 're the center of attention . heather : are you giving me the floor because you want franco to go free or because of your misguided love for jason ? carly : i 'm just trying to get to the bottom of all this . heather : for whom ? carly : for everyone . you say you have proof . let 's hear it . scott : come on . come on . you 're not gon na get a straight answer out of heather . carly : well , we damn sure deserve one , do n't we ? you tortured jason and sam . you made sam think that franco was danny 's father , and then you kidnapped danny and you jumped off a roof ! alexis : carly , not now . carly : i 'm sorry , okay ? i am sorry . silas : maybe sam does n't need to relive all this . carly : i get that , and i am sorry to bring up bad memories , but do n't you want to know what kind of game heather 's playing ? do n't you want to know why she put you through everything ? franco : okay , hold on a second . sam : just stop talking about jason , please . heather : jason has nothing to do with anything . carly : except you were obsessed with ruining his life . heather : past tense . carly : why ? heather : because -- carly : because he 's dead ? heather : because my focus is on franco now . carly : who you now claim has no relation to jason but suddenly is scott baldwin 's son ? heather : correct . carly : really ? then who the hell is franco 's mother ? heather : i am . [ crowd murmuring ] heather : that 's right . you 're my son . come to mama . heather : we made a baby together ... a beautiful son ... our franco . scott : no . no . no , heather . it did n't happen . that 's not true . lucy : of course it 's not true . heather : but it is . scott : no . we did n't have sex before jason and franco were born . i remember jason was a baby , and -- heather : do n't stop there , scott . we were after jason 's inheritance . we wanted to control that money as our own . scott : that was a long time ago , heather . i 've changed . lucy : yeah . oh , boy . he most certainly has changed . all the mistakes of his youth -- they 're gone . they 're way , way back there . and now he has chosen , because he 's the new d.a . , to live his life with honesty and integrity . scott : i could never have conceived a child with you , especially this child in question ! heather : not the second time we had relations , but what about the first ? you really do n't remember ? let me set the stage for you . luke and laura had just returned from beecher 's corners . laura wanted a divorce . you were heartbroken , and , coincidentally , so was i. jeff had just had me institutionalized for a few minor hallucinations . scott : right . you used to sneak out of there all the time . heather : i took furloughs , as i do now . lucy : this could n't have actually happened . heather : it was a cold , dark night . you and i ran into each other . you were drunk . you were hurting over laura , so i took you to my favorite place . scott : kelly 's . heather : that 's right . we shared a blt .. and oh so much more . we made a baby that night . and here he is , standing before you , all grown up . lucy : she 's not ... lying , is she ? heather : of course i 'm not lying . why would i lie ? ava : not interested in franco 's father ? too busy thinking about your own ? olivia : sonny , this whole thing could backfire . sonny : it wo n't . olivia : how do you know that ? ! this whole taking out this julian jerome guy -- this could come back to haunt every person in this family ! damn it , i knew i should have told dante . sonny : hold on . i asked you not to say anything to dante . olivia : yeah , and i asked you not to off a guy . sonny : did you tell him , olivia ? olivia : no ! i kept my word , which is more than i can say for you . sonny : well , thank you . i mean , that 's nice . olivia : are you kidding me ? this was not for you . this was for dante . he 's got enough going on right now with his custody hearing . he does not need me adding to his plate right now . but i was this close to telling him because , sonny , i am worried about you ... sonny : you do n't have to worry about me . olivia : ... and dante would be worried about you , too . sonny : involving dante would have been a mistake ! olivia : dante 's not just our son , sonny -- he 's the police ! sonny : i do n't care if he 's the police ! olivia : he could have helped you ! sonny : no ! you do n't understand how this works ! the local police -- they 'll do anything the wsb says . the wsb are the ones that kept julian jerome alive to come after me and mess with me and my son . olivia : i under -- sonny : now , i can tell you right now ... if i had any doubts ... about going after that son of a bitch before , they 've all disappeared now that he 's come after my son . olivia : sonny , i understand . sonny : do you understand , really ? put yourself in my position . what -- you 're -- dante -- your baby boy , right ? -- if he was in this guy 's clutches , forced or , you know , his own will -- you pick one -- would you not want to end the danger ... olivia : i guess . sonny : ... once and for all ? `` yeah , i guess `` ? `` i guess `` ? do n't guess , 'cause i know what you would do . you would do anything you could to protect your child . and that 's what i 'm doing for mine . heather : scott never knew i was pregnant . carly : why not ? heather : because i did n't want him to know . yes , we had a one - night stand , but i was still in love with jeff , so ... i hid my belly , and i laid low . sam : wait a minute . you said that susan gave birth to jason and then she passed out , never even knowing that she had a baby . heather : yes , that 's what i said . i lied . my cousin and i both had babies in new york . susan gave birth to jason , and i gave birth to franco . sam : you sold your own baby ? you sold your baby to betsy ? heather : yes , that 's right . but i never stopped loving you , franco -- never stopped admiring you from afar , yearning to tell you how proud i was of you , but i could n't until now . carly : why not ? franco 's been in trouble before . heather : because now franco 's fate is in scott 's hands . lucy : oh , no . nuh - unh . unh - unh . heather , you do n't get to do that . you do n't get to make this scott 's fault . okay . so , he had one night of indiscretion with the likes of you . that does not excuse what you have done . you took advantage of his broken heart , took him to some place in a drunken stupor and took advantage of everything , and now , decades later , you 're coming up with all these lies ? ! come on ! this is nothing but another one of your lies . heather : scott , please . you are franco 's father . love him enough to let him go , like i did . sam : we do n't even know if this is real . alexis : you said you had proof . heather : i do . carly : then where the hell is it ? lucy : give me that . it 's a birth certificate . sam : whose is it -- franco 's ? lucy : it says , `` baby boy grant `` ... and it lists the parents as heather grant ... and scott baldwin . carly : okay . it 's a birth certificate . anyone can have that forged . heather : there 's a dna test in it . sam : oh , co -- like carly said , because you 've never forged one of those before ? carly : sam 's right . you have lied over and over again . why the hell should any of us believe you now ? heather : i 'm your mother , franco . deep down inside , i think you must know it 's true . why else would i care so much about what happens to you ? why else would it be so important for me to protect you from carly ? lucy : so , are they real ? diane : well , i must say , d.a . baldwin ... i have to agree with ms . webber . scott : what a surprise . franco 's lawyer does n't want me to throw him in jail . diane : for what , exactly -- trying to pass off his mother 's work as his own ? clearly , she was a willing participant . she does n't want to press charges . heather : no . of course i do n't . max : you know what ? i ca n't believe you . diane : what ? max : not only are you sleeping with this guy , but you 're defending him after what he did to jason ? diane : max ... max : no . you are not who i thought you were . i 'm done . diane : done with what ? max : carrying a flame . diane : it 's a torch , max . max : whatever . no more . diane : okay , max , max , i told you there was never anything between franco and myself . max : but tonight you show up on his arm ? diane : again , i can explain that . look , if you and i can just go somewhere once i 'm done with this , private , just you and me -- max , i 've missed you . max : i ca n't . the boss needs me . franco : so , what 's the verdict ? it 's a forgery , right ? carly : we all know heather 's skilled at faking a dna test . scott : i 'm sure the birth certificate 's a phony , too . alexis : i 'm sorry . scott : what ? ! alexis : from what i can see here , the markings are that of a genuine document . silas : kind of looks like a legit dna test , too . heather : please feel free to run another one . i do n't want there to be any doubt in your mind that franco 's our son . sam : what the hell is wrong with you ? after all the crap you pulled , how is this even possible ? you said that jason and franco were twins , that they were brothers , and now they 're not ? why would you do that ? heather : you do n't know why ? i think you do . sam : because of the ridiculous letter ? heather : it was n't ridiculous to me . sam : you know what ? ! screw you for ruining my life ! screw you for stealing my child ! screw you because my husband will never know his son , all because of your ridiculous letter ! silas : hey . hey . what do you say we get this woman out of here ? scott : officers , take her back to the institution , all right ? make sure she stays put . heather : franco ... my beautiful flesh ... and my talented blood , now that the secret 's out , we can be mother and son . do n't you see ? do n't you see now ? you 're just like me . i would do anything -- franco : no , no , no , no . carly : go . heather : and you , carly -- you better watch yourself . do n't you test me . you get too close to him , and you will pay . you just ask sam ! i love you , franco . i love you , my son . i love you !

sam : it 's heather webber . she 's supposed to be locked up . silas : heather . heather : you stay away from me . stay away ! kiki : michael , be careful . olivia : sonny , you do n't think it 's possible , do you ?

you did good , kid . morgan : i 'd do it again . derek : with lazaro gone , sonny no longer has a d.a . in his pocket . and i have one in mine . olivia : maybe there 's some mistake . sonny : no mistake . my son did this . olivia : you 're positive ? sonny : it 's a bug ! it 's a clock that i gave my -- my -- morgan as a wedding gift . he came in here into my office , put it on the desk , and ... they were listening ! olivia : what did they hear you say ? sonny : the recording that lazaro 's talking about -- him and i , we had an understanding . olivia : yeah , yeah , i got that impression . sonny : but i pretty much spelled the whole arrangement . damn it ! they heard everything ! probably had something to do with what you saw morgan handing off to baldwin -- a recording of me and lazaro . olivia : why ? why ? sonny , i get it that morgan is angry , but would he really do this to you ? he goes to extremes to get involved in an election ? sonny : not on his own . olivia : so , you 're saying someone put him up to this ? sonny : julian , olivia . my son has thrown in ... with julian jerome . ava : in case you had n't noticed , julian , there is a madwoman brandishing a cheese knife at our art show . derek : where ? ava : perhaps you should appear more interested in that and less interested in morgan . derek : relax , would you ? i 'm just ... checking on something . diane : please tell me that heather webber is just having another one of her psychotic episodes . please tell me that when you told me that an obsessed fan painted all of these , you were n't referring to her . oh , god . franco : no , no . look , i never lied , okay ? i said it was a she , and i said that she was happy to do it . diane : you also told me that she wanted the world to appreciate her work . what you failed to tell me was she is certifiable and that she is heather webber ! oh , god . heather : you told me that you knew what the paintings meant . sebastian : forgive me , but i 'm not following here . you said you wanted to purchase the collection , yes ? but not until you heard what was behind every piece from the artist , and now you 're explaining it for him . diane : well , yes . there 's a very good reason for that . sebastian : but how are you able to interpret the work when franco clearly ca n't ? diane : because heather is his number - one fan . heather : yes , i am . diane : she has studied the works of franco . she is an expert in all things franco . heather : thank you . diane : only heather would know that franco is the only one who could elevate the sandwich menu to the realm of the sublime and the immortal . heather : not just any sandwich menu . diane : no , no -- the one and only kelly 's . but there is so much more going on here than meets the eye . these are not simply lunch choices . these are the layers of franco 's tormented angst sandwiched between the crusty , yeasty crusts of -- of his genius . bologna is not merely disks of processed pig -- no . it is -- it is the layers of franco 's soul sliced to fit the very -- the very bread of society . the reuben is rubenesque in its -- in its depiction of the tumor that tormented him for so long . the caprese is -- is ... sebastian : genius . diane : yes , it is genius , is n't it ? ! and only heather webber could speak for franco when franco can not speak for himself . franco : stop it . diane : no , just as his art ... franco : diane , will you stop it ? diane : ... is so elevated -- franco : please . that 's enough . diane : [ sighs ] franco : no more pretending . it 's over . heather : franco , do n't . diane : just listen to her . listen to her . i ca n't believe i just said that . ahh ! listen to her ! franco : look at these paintings . really -- look at them . i did n't paint these . heather did . diane : [ sighs ] franco : sorry ... for trying to pass heather 's paintings off as my own . heather : why ? franco : 'cause i suck at painting now . really , i 'm -- i 'm no good at it . heather : did you try ? franco : of course i tried . i tried and i tried , and ... a good friend told me that my painting was crap , and she was right . heather : does n't sound like a friend to me . franco : turns out ... when they sliced that tumor out of my brain , they sliced whatever talent i might have had along with it . i did n't know what else to do . heather : you were desperate . franco : and broke . and it was my birthday . and you showed up with that beautiful gift of your blt , and sebastian liked it so much that i manipulated you into painting more like it so that i could pass them off as mine . heather , i 'm so sorry . i am . and if you want to cut me to ribbons with that cheese knife of yours , i would n't blame you . heather : no , franco -- never . i forgive you . franco : well , i do n't expect anyone else in this room to -- to be quite so generous . i know ... i really thought , after the surgery , that i 'd be a better man , and i think that i am . i did n't know that it would turn me into a shoddy artist . look , to be clear , i 'd give whatever grain of creativity i ever had to be the kind of man that you want me to be . ava : leave it to franco to screw this up . what an idiot . hey . morgan : yeah ? ava : are you all right ? my brother get to you ? morgan : no . ava : but someone did ? morgan : yeah -- olivia . ava : is she here ? morgan : no , i just -- i ran into her earlier . she just gave me this bull about how much my dad loved me . ava : oh . that could not have been easy to hear . morgan : whatever . obviously , she was just working me . ava : mm . and did it work ? did olivia get to you ? morgan ? are you having second thoughts about working with julian and me ? olivia : you think that morgan is working for julian jerome ? sonny : why else would ava let morgan shack up with her ? he 's a kid , for god 's sake , and who was married to her daughter . olivia : maybe ava 's just trying to stick it to carly . sonny : or maybe she 's just trying to soften morgan up so that scum - of - the- earth brother of hers can get him on their side . olivia : what kind of monsters prey on a hurt boy ? morgan is obviously in pain . he 's confused . he 's obviously blaming you . sonny : well , it 's an ultimate way to get back at me . i never thought that my own son would hate me enough to do something like this . olivia : morgan does not hate you . sonny : no ? olivia : no . sonny : then what is this about ? olivia : no . he 's confused . his feelings are blown up into a million pieces right now , sonny . they 're going this way . they 're going that way . but i saw him . i looked into his eyes . i saw his body language . sonny , that kid still loves you . he just does n't know what to do with it right now . sonny : well , he sure knows what to do with this , olivia . olivia : has it occurred to you that maybe morgan did n't have a choice ? sonny : everybody has a choice . olivia : in this business ? really ? ava and julian are very powerful people . how do you know they 're not forcing him to work for them . they could even be threatening to kill him . ava : it 's okay , morgan . you can say anything to me . do you want to back out of this ? morgan : no . ava : are you sure ? morgan : yeah . forget olivia . she 's made it real clear that she 's team sonny . tsk . she 'll do anything to make him feel better about himself ... if that 's even possible after screwing me over . kiki : i just feel so bad for franco . his whole life , he 's been known for his art . michael : he was known for a couple of other things , too . kiki : okay . well , the only good thing then , and now it 's gone . to be outed in front of a roomful of people like that -- that 's humiliating . what is so fascinating ? michael : morgan . he and your mom seem closer than ever . kiki : yeah , i just do n't understand . why would he be all over her , especially after we tell him that she 's the daughter of a crime lord ? michael : maybe because he 's the son of one . i think that 's why morgan 's acting like this -- to stick it to my dad . olivia : admit that it 's possible the jeromes are strong - arming morgan . sonny : yeah , it 's possible . but if that 's the case , then he should have come to me to let me protect him . olivia : well , maybe we 're talking a matter of life or death , sonny ! sonny : i do n't care what we 're talking about ! i do n't care if they 're forcing him or he 's doing this on his own will . it 's got to end tonight ! olivia : okay . what does that mean , sonny ? and do n't even think about trying to keep me out . sonny : you brought this information to me . olivia : yes , i did . and it means i 'm in it . there 's no turning back . sonny : there 's something that you have to keep to yourself . other -- you know , usually , i tell you to wait outside the room . you know that , right ? olivia : are you asking ? sonny : you want me to ? i , uh -- i 've worked everything out . julian jerome dies tonight . and this time , he ai n't coming back from the dead . scott : officers , this is heather webber . she has escaped from miscavige institute . please disarm her , read her her rights . heather : disarmament wo n't be necessary . i do n't want to cause franco trouble . carly : it 's a little late for that , do n't you think ? alexis : a - a - a - nd she 's cuffed . sam : thank god . silas : is it just me , or does something really bizarre happen every time we try to go out ? sam : [ chuckling ] actually , i think it is you . silas : [ chuckles ] i thought so . scott : ladies and gentlemen , lazaro is conceding in the race for district attorney . the mayor has asked me to pick up the reins , effective immediately , so here we go . i have promised you good people that i would clean up the crime in this town , and i intend to do that , starting with the prosecution of these two criminals to the full extent of the law . heather : you ca n't do that . scott : i can , and i will . you have been escaping from miscavige over and over again , and that is a travesty and that will stop , let me assure you . and you -- i do n't know how you have n't been prosecuted . that boggles my mind . but you will pay for these crimes -- perpetrating fraud , aiding and abetting heather here in her escapes , and trying to make a profit off of stolen goods . officers , take 'em . heather : scott , no , please . punish me if you want , but you can not hurt franco . scott : why ? heather : because he 's your son . i 'm telling you , you 're franco 's father , and i can prove it . michael : okay , wait . hold on . you want us to believe that jason 's parents are susan moore and scott baldwin , not alan quartermaine ? heather : who cares about jason ? sam : what the hell are you talking about ? alan was jason 's father , and susan , your cousin , was jason 's mother . michael : jason and franco are twins . pretty sure it 's not possible to have different fathers . heather : it is if they 're not really twins . in fact , franco and jason -- they 're not even brothers . franco 's no more a quartermaine than kiki is . sam : wh - what ? how ? heather : sometimes , as we all know , mothers lie about these things . [ crowd murmuring ] franco : okay , heather , look -- i appreciate you making up this outrageous story to spare me prosecution , but there no way that this man is my father . scott : now there 's something i can get behind . officers , take her away . carly : wait ! heather says she has proof , so let 's hear it . if franco is n't jason 's twin , then who is he ? olivia : so , we 're back to this now -- taking out julian jerome ? honey , no . no . we already talked about this . sonny : julian forced my hand . i did n't have a choice . olivia : who just told me that there 's always a choice ? sonny : it 's done . max is at ava 's art gallery right now . olivia : franco 's show is going on there tonight . you ca n't just open fire on a roomful of people , sonny . you remember what happened when someone tried to take out fra -- sonny : do you have to remind me ? olivia : well , i think maybe i do . sonny : when i saw you on the ground of that terrace -- i 'm not gon na let that happen again . olivia : because you 're just that good ? sonny : i got max ... waiting on julian , and shawn is outside the place . olivia : waiting for julian ? sonny : he knows ... not to make a move unless the coast is clear . olivia : so , that 's it , then ? end of the conversation ? sonny : julian jerome dies tonight , alone and miserable ... like the filthy rat that he is . carly : go on , heather . you 're the center of attention . heather : are you giving me the floor because you want franco to go free or because of your misguided love for jason ? carly : i 'm just trying to get to the bottom of all this . heather : for whom ? carly : for everyone . you say you have proof . let 's hear it . scott : come on . come on . you 're not gon na get a straight answer out of heather . carly : well , we damn sure deserve one , do n't we ? you tortured jason and sam . you made sam think that franco was danny 's father , and then you kidnapped danny and you jumped off a roof ! alexis : carly , not now . carly : i 'm sorry , okay ? i am sorry . silas : maybe sam does n't need to relive all this . carly : i get that , and i am sorry to bring up bad memories , but do n't you want to know what kind of game heather 's playing ? do n't you want to know why she put you through everything ? franco : okay , hold on a second . sam : just stop talking about jason , please . heather : jason has nothing to do with anything . carly : except you were obsessed with ruining his life . heather : past tense . carly : why ? heather : because -- carly : because he 's dead ? heather : because my focus is on franco now . carly : who you now claim has no relation to jason but suddenly is scott baldwin 's son ? heather : correct . carly : really ? then who the hell is franco 's mother ? heather : i am . [ crowd murmuring ] heather : that 's right . you 're my son . come to mama . heather : we made a baby together ... a beautiful son ... our franco . scott : no . no . no , heather . it did n't happen . that 's not true . lucy : of course it 's not true . heather : but it is . scott : no . we did n't have sex before jason and franco were born . i remember jason was a baby , and -- heather : do n't stop there , scott . we were after jason 's inheritance . we wanted to control that money as our own . scott : that was a long time ago , heather . i 've changed . lucy : yeah . oh , boy . he most certainly has changed . all the mistakes of his youth -- they 're gone . they 're way , way back there . and now he has chosen , because he 's the new d.a . , to live his life with honesty and integrity . scott : i could never have conceived a child with you , especially this child in question ! heather : not the second time we had relations , but what about the first ? you really do n't remember ? let me set the stage for you . luke and laura had just returned from beecher 's corners . laura wanted a divorce . you were heartbroken , and , coincidentally , so was i. jeff had just had me institutionalized for a few minor hallucinations . scott : right . you used to sneak out of there all the time . heather : i took furloughs , as i do now . lucy : this could n't have actually happened . heather : it was a cold , dark night . you and i ran into each other . you were drunk . you were hurting over laura , so i took you to my favorite place . scott : kelly 's . heather : that 's right . we shared a blt .. and oh so much more . we made a baby that night . and here he is , standing before you , all grown up . lucy : she 's not ... lying , is she ? heather : of course i 'm not lying . why would i lie ? ava : not interested in franco 's father ? too busy thinking about your own ? olivia : sonny , this whole thing could backfire . sonny : it wo n't . olivia : how do you know that ? ! this whole taking out this julian jerome guy -- this could come back to haunt every person in this family ! damn it , i knew i should have told dante . sonny : hold on . i asked you not to say anything to dante . olivia : yeah , and i asked you not to off a guy . sonny : did you tell him , olivia ? olivia : no ! i kept my word , which is more than i can say for you . sonny : well , thank you . i mean , that 's nice . olivia : are you kidding me ? this was not for you . this was for dante . he 's got enough going on right now with his custody hearing . he does not need me adding to his plate right now . but i was this close to telling him because , sonny , i am worried about you ... sonny : you do n't have to worry about me . olivia : ... and dante would be worried about you , too . sonny : involving dante would have been a mistake ! olivia : dante 's not just our son , sonny -- he 's the police ! sonny : i do n't care if he 's the police ! olivia : he could have helped you ! sonny : no ! you do n't understand how this works ! the local police -- they 'll do anything the wsb says . the wsb are the ones that kept julian jerome alive to come after me and mess with me and my son . olivia : i under -- sonny : now , i can tell you right now ... if i had any doubts ... about going after that son of a bitch before , they 've all disappeared now that he 's come after my son . olivia : sonny , i understand . sonny : do you understand , really ? put yourself in my position . what -- you 're -- dante -- your baby boy , right ? -- if he was in this guy 's clutches , forced or , you know , his own will -- you pick one -- would you not want to end the danger ... olivia : i guess . sonny : ... once and for all ? `` yeah , i guess `` ? `` i guess `` ? do n't guess , 'cause i know what you would do . you would do anything you could to protect your child . and that 's what i 'm doing for mine . heather : scott never knew i was pregnant . carly : why not ? heather : because i did n't want him to know . yes , we had a one - night stand , but i was still in love with jeff , so ... i hid my belly , and i laid low . sam : wait a minute . you said that susan gave birth to jason and then she passed out , never even knowing that she had a baby . heather : yes , that 's what i said . i lied . my cousin and i both had babies in new york . susan gave birth to jason , and i gave birth to franco . sam : you sold your own baby ? you sold your baby to betsy ? heather : yes , that 's right . but i never stopped loving you , franco -- never stopped admiring you from afar , yearning to tell you how proud i was of you , but i could n't until now . carly : why not ? franco 's been in trouble before . heather : because now franco 's fate is in scott 's hands . lucy : oh , no . nuh - unh . unh - unh . heather , you do n't get to do that . you do n't get to make this scott 's fault . okay . so , he had one night of indiscretion with the likes of you . that does not excuse what you have done . you took advantage of his broken heart , took him to some place in a drunken stupor and took advantage of everything , and now , decades later , you 're coming up with all these lies ? ! come on ! this is nothing but another one of your lies . heather : scott , please . you are franco 's father . love him enough to let him go , like i did . sam : we do n't even know if this is real . alexis : you said you had proof . heather : i do . carly : then where the hell is it ? lucy : give me that . it 's a birth certificate . sam : whose is it -- franco 's ? lucy : it says , `` baby boy grant `` ... and it lists the parents as heather grant ... and scott baldwin . carly : okay . it 's a birth certificate . anyone can have that forged . heather : there 's a dna test in it . sam : oh , co -- like carly said , because you 've never forged one of those before ? carly : sam 's right . you have lied over and over again . why the hell should any of us believe you now ? heather : i 'm your mother , franco . deep down inside , i think you must know it 's true . why else would i care so much about what happens to you ? why else would it be so important for me to protect you from carly ? lucy : so , are they real ? diane : well , i must say , d.a . baldwin ... i have to agree with ms . webber . scott : what a surprise . franco 's lawyer does n't want me to throw him in jail . diane : for what , exactly -- trying to pass off his mother 's work as his own ? clearly , she was a willing participant . she does n't want to press charges . heather : no . of course i do n't . max : you know what ? i ca n't believe you . diane : what ? max : not only are you sleeping with this guy , but you 're defending him after what he did to jason ? diane : max ... max : no . you are not who i thought you were . i 'm done . diane : done with what ? max : carrying a flame . diane : it 's a torch , max . max : whatever . no more . diane : okay , max , max , i told you there was never anything between franco and myself . max : but tonight you show up on his arm ? diane : again , i can explain that . look , if you and i can just go somewhere once i 'm done with this , private , just you and me -- max , i 've missed you . max : i ca n't . the boss needs me . franco : so , what 's the verdict ? it 's a forgery , right ? carly : we all know heather 's skilled at faking a dna test . scott : i 'm sure the birth certificate 's a phony , too . alexis : i 'm sorry . scott : what ? ! alexis : from what i can see here , the markings are that of a genuine document . silas : kind of looks like a legit dna test , too . heather : please feel free to run another one . i do n't want there to be any doubt in your mind that franco 's our son . sam : what the hell is wrong with you ? after all the crap you pulled , how is this even possible ? you said that jason and franco were twins , that they were brothers , and now they 're not ? why would you do that ? heather : you do n't know why ? i think you do . sam : because of the ridiculous letter ? heather : it was n't ridiculous to me . sam : you know what ? ! screw you for ruining my life ! screw you for stealing my child ! screw you because my husband will never know his son , all because of your ridiculous letter ! silas : hey . hey . what do you say we get this woman out of here ? scott : officers , take her back to the institution , all right ? make sure she stays put . heather : franco ... my beautiful flesh ... and my talented blood , now that the secret 's out , we can be mother and son . do n't you see ? do n't you see now ? you 're just like me . i would do anything -- franco : no , no , no , no . carly : go . heather : and you , carly -- you better watch yourself . do n't you test me . you get too close to him , and you will pay . you just ask sam ! i love you , franco . i love you , my son . i love you ! [ crowd murmuring ] ava : why are you still standing here ? sonny 's goon left . take advantage of this chaos and go before sonny sends someone else to kill you . olivia : i do n't want to lose you -- not now , not when we 're finally ... sonny : finally what , olivia ? max : hey , boss . [ sighs ] sonny : how you doing ? i 've been waiting to hear from you . max : uh , things kind of blew up at the gallery . olivia : what is that ? what blew up ? is everyone okay ? max : oh , no , no . okay , it 's , uh -- it 's got nothing to do with that . everyone 's fine . sonny : no . you -- she -- she knows what 's going down . where 's shawn right now ? max : he 's waiting outside of the entrance for jerome , but he wants one more go - ahead from you , especially with what happened with the franco hit . so , he does n't want to make any mistakes . sonny : right . max : told him i 'd check in . you want me to make the call ? sonny : no . i 'm gon na handle this myself . olivia : wait a minute . sonny , what are you gon na do ? sonny : i 'm gon na do what i got to do , olivia . olivia : well , then , i 'm going with you . sonny : [ chuckles ] do me a favor . stay with olivia . max : you got it , boss . olivia : wa -- sonny ! sonny : hey , listen to me . you 've already been hurt . i do n't want that to happen again . do you understand me ? i got to take care of my family . ava : please , julian . i know we 've had our differences , but , still , i prefer you breathing . derek : aww . that is sweet , sis . but do n't worry . sonny ca n't kill me . ava : why not ? derek : i have a guardian angel . sam : i think i 'm probably the one who looks like i need to be institutionalized now . alexis : you want to see with your own eyes that she gets thrown into the cop car ? sam : i want to see that she does n't take my son . that 's what i want to see . silas : let 's go . let 's do that . sam : yeah ? silas : yeah . come on . sam : okay . bye , mom . diane : excuse me for one moment . i 'm gon na try and do some damage control , but i do n't know how far that 's going to get me . i just do n't . look , keep your chin up , all right ? sebastian : chin up ? you 're finished , franco . your patrons , your fans -- nobody will ever take you seriously again . diane : well , in case it is n't obvious , he 's all yours . carly : you 're upset . i do n't blame you . i mean , what heather just dumped on you -- i ca n't even imagine . talk to me , please . are you okay ?

ridge : yeah . katie : ridge , no one just throws themselves in front of a truck . someone 's gon na remember that you were there . and if the police do suspect foul play , it 's only a matter of time before they start sifting through the good doctor 's records . and if they find your name and god knows whatever notes he wrote about you , they 're gon na connect you to this photograph , and someone is going to be here questioning you a lot more harshly than i am . maybe they 'll figure out that he had a reason to blackmail you and that you had a reason to push him into traffic . ridge : [ sighs ] katie : where are you going to tell them that you had this procedure that he refused to perform ?

ridge : $ 100,000 . katie : when ? ridge : 24 hours . katie : were you gon na pay him ? ridge : [ sighs ] yeah , probably . he -- he was -- he was so full of himself , full of bourbon , and then he stepped off , and that -- that was it . katie : the reverse vasectomy . you never had it , right ?

it wo n't be the first time you broke a promise . sasha : oh , enough of that , all right ? ! listen , if your fine , upstanding character depended on a little girl lying for you , then maybe you did n't have that much character to begin with . ridge : [ sighs ] if you guys want to go and work ridge : [ sighs ] if you guys want to go and work on those sketches , go ahead . i have things to do . thomas : yeah , but , i mean , who 's gon na get the baby ? you have a lot of c.e.o.-ish type things to do . i think mama bear and big bro should take douglas . ridge : caroline , make sure he does n't , uh , goof off and blame the baby . katie : hello . oh ! look who 's here ! hi ! hello , hello . are you absconding with your little brother ? thomas : [ chuckles ] ridge : and my little wife . see what i have to put up with ? caroline : ah ! i 'm little again . i 'm gon na post that you said that . thomas : [ laughs ] she 's teaching me how to make dad like my work again . katie : [ clears throat ] do you have a minute i could borrow ? ridge : sure . katie : [ chuckles ] um , i saw something interesting on the news feed this morning online . ridge : okay . katie : well , it seems your doctor is making headlines again . they did some research into him , and apparently he has gambling debts and pharmaceutical fraud , and they did n't mention blackmail , but we both know that he 's not above that . ridge : well , i 'm not interested in anything to do with the doctor . katie : are you interested in the fact that they 're not charging the driver of the truck with any kind of crime ? ridge : why would they charge the driver ? it was an accident . and i think the police knows a little bit more about that than we do . katie : i 'm not so sure about that . [ chuckles ] that , um , procedure that the doctor refused to do -- how does -- how does that work ? ridge : a vasectomy reversal ? katie : yeah . ridge : you 'll never have to know about that . katie : you do n't know about it either because you did n't have it done , right ? ridge : oh , katie . all the private stuff -- that 's no longer your business . that time is over . katie : [ chuckles ] yeah . uh , true , but , you know , i - i loved you once , and ... that feeling does n't go away . it changes , but it 's -- it 's there , and i - i also know , ridge , what fear can drive a good person , a - a decent person to do out of desperation . ridge : a decent person ? you 're not talking about the doctor right now , are you ? katie : no . i can help you , but you have to be honest with me . did you kill him ? nicole : did you and dad ever fight a lot ? vivienne : not around you , not even maya . i mean , we certainly had our disagreements . you know , and then we just got tired of bringing it up , which necessarily is n't a good thing . i take it you had an argument with your father . nicole : yeah . uh , i thought that he went looking for you , but he might have meant someone else . vivienne : what 's that a map of ? nicole : it 's an app where you can find the people that you 're closest with , unless sasha blocked me . vivienne : oh . is n't that the forresters ' house ? and why are we looking for sasha ? nicole : mom , mom , we got to go . come on . julius : you have never been one for gratitude . sasha : what do you think that you have n't been thanked enough for ? sleeping with my mother when vivienne wanted nothing to do with you ? julius : do n't you pretend that you know anything about my marriage . sasha : oh , i am living proof what nobody else knows about except for me . oh , and , um , nicole now . sasha : let me ask you . is there any little part of you that likes having me around ? do n't you know that i would do whatever you wanted if i could just hear you say one time `` i love you , sasha `` ? `` i 'm proud of you . `` `` what a wonderful daughter you are , and i appreciate all that you 've done for me . `` julius : all that you have done for me ? sasha : oh , you keep talking about that you gave me life . well , your big lie of a life is what i gave you . and at the cost of me being a non - person . it tears you down , belonging to no one , having no one who belongs to you . you feel walled off from yourself . nobody can see you . you ca n't even see yourself . i should be ashamed to admit that you are my father . but i 'm not . because it 's real . and nothing in my life ever was . caroline : so , the first that ridge looks for are vertical lines because , as human beings , we are vertical , at least in our evening wear . thomas : look at these little hands . i mean , they 're so tiny . how is he ever gon na hold a pencil ? but , i mean , you know he will because he 's got artist 's hands , thanks to the man that he inherited them from . ridge : now , what have i done to make you think that i killed somebody ? katie : i - i - i do n't think that . i want to help . i mean , you were with him when he died . ridge : no , i was n't . katie : [ sighs ] ridge : what ? that 's not me . i heard the commotion , and i just kept walking . katie : [ sighs ] why are you lying to me ? you were with him . ridge : he asked me to meet him there . he ordered me to meet him . katie : to confront you with the same accusations and threats as before ? ridge : yeah . katie : ridge , no one just throws themselves in front of a truck . someone 's gon na remember that you were there . and if the police do suspect foul play , it 's only a matter of time before they start sifting through the good doctor 's records . and if they find your name and god knows whatever notes he wrote about you , they 're gon na connect you to this photograph , and someone is going to be here questioning you a lot more harshly than i am . maybe they 'll figure out that he had a reason to blackmail you and that you had a reason to push him into traffic . ridge : [ sighs ] katie : where are you going to tell them that you had this procedure that he refused to perform ? ridge : doctor / patient confidentiality is protected by law . katie : not necessarily if they suspect murder . ridge : i did n't kill anybody ! katie : i believe you . ridge : no , you do n't , or you would n't be here . katie : i just want to make sure that you know how you 're gon na prove it . ridge : well ... i ca n't . katie : you 're lying . which means you must be protecting something pretty big . ridge : i 'm not lying about that . i did n't push anybody in front of a truck . katie : how much money did he want ? ridge : $ 100,000 . katie : when ? ridge : 24 hours . katie : were you gon na pay him ? ridge : [ sighs ] yeah , probably . he -- he was -- he was so full of himself , full of bourbon , and then he stepped off , and that -- that was it . katie : the reverse vasectomy . you never had it , right ? ridge : no . katie : and you 're not douglas ' biological father . ridge : no . katie : then who is ? thomas : sorry . i just -- i saw that the blanket was -- caroline : no . i saw . it 's ... thomas : i - i was listening . i really was . i ... caroline : you 're a very good designer . you 're very accomplished . you 're very easily distracted . [ chuckles ] thomas : i do n't know . maybe i just want too many things . caroline : i think that 's pretty human . thomas : every time he 's around ... ... i just want what you and dad have . julius : you want to talk to me about loving you ? well , if i did , you would n't believe me . sasha : nope . i would n't . julius : i have always been there for you , sasha . sasha : just not enough to claim me . julius : listen , i did the best that i could . you spent more time at my house than you did your own . i think you should be grateful for that . sasha : is this all you have to say to me ? ! that i should be grateful to be alive ? no one asked to be born , okay ? you do n't get points for that . julius : i can see there 's no point to this . julius : do n't say i did n't try . i 'm getting you packed up , taking you to lax , out of here . enough of -- [ door opens ] vivienne : hey , julius . what 's going on here ? julius : oh , hi . uh , glad to see you 're here . you 'll get a chance to say your goodbyes . sasha 's leaving . she 's going back home . things did n't work out here in l.a. as she hoped to . vivienne : mm . julius : right , sasha ? sasha : oh -- vivienne : i thought you loved living here . nicole : sasha . sasha : i guess it wore off . vivienne : well , if i were your age , i 'd be homesick , too . you miss your mom and how things used to be ? sasha : what 's wrong with me is that i 've been homesick all my life . nicole : your home is here now . vivienne : uh , nicole , if sasha feels it 's best -- nicole : she does n't . julius : uh , nicole , do n't contradict your mother . now , say your goodbyes . nicole : trust me . sasha : okay . nicole : sasha 's not going anywhere . vivienne : uh , darling , sometimes unfinished business is best to keep unfinished . nicole : dad will explain . julius : i 've already explained . now , i 'll make sure that she gets home safely . nicole : nobody 's going anywhere . vivienne : nicole . nicole : dad has something to tell you . tell her .Summarize.[/INST]julius tells sasha that is the trouble about being the truth teller . there is always more truth and it was he that took care of her and made her who she is and this is the way she repays him . she ended up with a good job and a big car and now snagged a forrester even . she is nothing like nicole as she will understand he was only protecting her mother . julius tells sasha that he will go help her pack and even drive the car . he does not trust that she will do as she says . katie finds some footage on the internet at the scene of the accident and there is ridge in the background . caroline takes the baby with thomas so she can help him with a design . this leaves katie a chance to find ridge alone and she wants to talk to him about the accident . she gets around to the procedure . ridge says she does not have to know about that . that time with her is over . she says he knows he did not have that procedure . but she can help him now if he tells her the truth . she wants to know if he killed the doctor . nicole takes her phone app and tracks down her father to the forrester house and suspects he is looking for sasha so she tells viv bye and rushes off .</s> | 4,200 |
tripp : [ sighs ] [ crashing ] [ ominous music ] [ groans ] that ca n't be claire . [ woman screams ] haley , what are you doing here ? ! [ both panting ] [ door opens ] victor : ah , it 's just you . john : sorry to disappoint . victor : i thought you might be maggie . so ... if you 're here to talk about caroline , i 'm not in the mood . john : no , not here to talk about caroline , vic . but i 'm sorry for your loss . i know how much you loved her . victor : everybody did . if you 're not here to talk about caroline , why are you here ? john : more bad news , i 'm afraid . eli : hope , i got your message . hope : hey . thanks for meeting me so quickly . eli : it 's all good . what 's going on ? hope : how do you feel about unofficial detective work ? eli : unofficial ? hope : eve ca n't know . if that puts you in an awkward position -- eli : no , no . it ... not a problem . especially since i do n't think the boss lady 's gon na be around too much longer . hope : why not ? marlena : well ... eve denies knowing anything about claire setting those fires . ciara : what a bitch . she obviously knew and was helping claire cover it up . the voicemail is proof . ben : yeah , but eve is still the police commissioner . there 's a lot of power in that position , and she 's using it . marlena : well , those days are numbered . eli has claire 's phone . the evidence is right there . and hopefully eve will be fired . ben , the charge against you will be dropped . and if there 's any justice in the world , eve will spend a long time in jail . ciara : claire tried to kill me . and then she tried to kill herself , all because of eve . honestly , i just hope that bitch rots in hell . but what about claire ? what 's gon na happen to her ? belle : so i sent your psyche evaluation to the court , and i think that the best - case scenario is that the judge sends you to bayview for treatment . okay ? claire : and if he does n't ? belle : then you will ... you 'll have to stand trial for attempted murder , baby . [ solemn music ] claire : so an insane asylum or prison . wow . shawn : look , i know . i know it seems pretty bleak , but our best bet to get you feeling healthy is going to be bayview . claire : no , and i -- i want to get better . i really , really do . and you know , this part is hard , the waiting and the not knowing . belle : i know . you know what ? let 's stream a movie of your choice , help get your mind off things , okay ? claire : actually , if it 's okay with you guys , i just want to rest right now . shawn : yeah . whatever you want , right . belle : okay , baby . claire : love you . belle : i 'll be nearby , okay ? okay . claire : [ sighs deeply ] eve : [ whispering ] claire . claire : what are you doing here ? eve : i just wanted to see how you were doing , sweetheart . and beg your forgiveness . male announcer : like sands through the hourglass , so are the `` days of our lives . `` [ soft orchestration ] marlena : a psychiatrist has evaluated claire and written a report . and belle has given that report to the court . and now we 're just waiting to see if -- if claire has to go to bayview , or if she has to stand trial . ben : [ sighs ] ciara : prison or a psyche hospital . i 'm sorry , but i can't ... i ca n't imagine claire in either of those places . ben : bayview . it is a good facility . i owe the doctors everything . ciara : can i go see her ? it 's just -- we have n't really had a chance to talk since that night . marlena : you know , i 'm not she 'll react to that . ciara : no , no , i promise i wo n't upset her . i ... hey , i just want to make sure that she 's okay . claire : forgive you ? forgive you for what ? eve , i am the crazy one who did all the horrible things , okay ? you were trying to help me . eve : no . no , i did n't help you , claire , but i should 've . claire : but you did . eve , you warned me that ben and ciara were trying to get me to confess . and then when i found out that tripp was in on it too , i just -- i lost it . look at me now . [ chuckles ] eve : i am so sorry . i am so sorry about so many things . i , um ... i heard what happened at the cabin . claire : oh , god . what kind of a monster am i ? really ? i tried to kill ciara . again . [ tender music ] eve : you tried to take your own life . claire : yeah , somehow my grandma managed to talk me out of it , but ... i 'm thinking that i should have ignore her . eve : what do you mean by that ? eve : i mean , i tried to -- i tried to kill people i love , eve . i put my family through hell . and it is not even over , so yes , i do think i should 've just torched myself when i had the chance . eve : don't . do n't you ever say that . do n't you ever say that . [ sobs ] tripp : so , what are you doing here ? haley : i forgot my key . and you must have been in the shower when i knocked on the door , so i climbed up the fire escape and came in through claire 's window . tripp : no , what i meant was , are n't you supposed to be in china ? haley : oh . um , well , we were waiting to board our plane , but it turns out that my mother had an in with the senator who pulled some strings at the last minute , so here i am . tripp : so you 're here to stay ? haley : well , they 're letting me stay while i apply for my green card , so yeah , hopefully i 'll be here forever . tripp : that 's -- that 's fantastic . jj must be thrilled . haley : oh , yeah . yeah , no . he -- he definitely is . today 's actually the first day we 've -- we 've come up for air . he had to come back for work , and so i figured that i 'd stop by , get the rest of my things , and , um ... and just see how you 're doing . i heard about what happened with claire , and ... i 'm just so sorry you got hurt . tripp : i 'm fine . claire 's the one who isn't . haley : i just -- i still ca n't believe that was her who tried to kill us at the horton cabin . tripp : yeah , me neither . still ca n't quite wrap my head around it . victor : so claire tried to kill ciara . john : yup . victor : twice . john : yup . victor : good god . [ sighs ] well , listen . i got a bottle of bourbon hidden under the sofa there . would you get it for me ? john : yeah , sure . victor : feel like i 'm gon na need it . no , the other side . john : oh , of course . what was i thinking ? interesting place you keep your liquor , vic . victor : i was trying to get all the alcohol out of the house for maggie 's sake . john : yeah . well , i 'm sorry to hear that she 's struggling . victor : apparently she 's not the only one . what about ciara ? is she okay ? how 's she doing ? john : well , she 's , uh ... she 's -- she 's fine . physically . victor : claire ? what 's gon na happen with her ? john : well , she had a psyche evaluation done , so now we 're waiting for the judge to determine if she 's fit to stand trial or be committed to bayview . victor : did you tell her to talk to justin , see if maybe he can set up one of those deals where she 's an outpatient ? john : no , vic , that 's not gon na fly , man . what claire did was too serious . victor : oh , well , we 're family here . ciara 's not gon na press charges . john : it 's not about ciara , though . claire set fire to the horton cabin . i mean , she could 've killed tripp dalton and haley chen too . victor : who ? well , never mind . does n't matter . little claire locked up ? i ca n't see it . john : she wo n't have a choice . victor : the hell she won't . i could have the titan jet gassed up in an hour and get her out of the country asap . eli : john and marlena turned claire 's cell phone over to me . based on the voicemail , eve knew that claire was guilty , and she did n't do a damn thing about it . and not only that , she tipped off claire and told her that ben and ciara were setting her up to get a confession out of her . hope : she knew claire was unstable . she did nothing . how could she not see the danger both girls were in ? eli : two words : ben weston . hope : that bitch ! that -- ciara and claire could 've died , eli . eve : taking your own life is never the solution . claire : you do n't understand what i was going through , though . eve : claire ... yes , i do . because when i was your age , i tried to do exactly the same thing . claire : really ? eve : yes . i was lied to , bullied , hurt . and i thought the only way out was through a bottle of pills , but you know what ? i made it through . i made it through , and so will you , because you are so much stronger than i was back then . now , honey , you have so many people that love you . i should 've never , ever let any of this happen . claire : eve , no , no , no . you did n't do anything . eve : no , no . i knew that you were in trouble , sweetheart . i knew that . when you set those fires at the cabin , but i did n't say -- i did n't say anything , sweetheart . claire : well , yeah , because you were trying to protect me . eve : yeah , well that 's what i told myself , but the truth ... the truth ? i was just hell - bent on framing ben for what he did to my daughter , but nothing mattered , including making sure that you were all right , sweetheart . and i 'm so ... i 'm so sorry . well , i 'll just -- i will ... i will somehow deal with these -- with the consequences here . claire : what do you mean by that ? eve : your grandparents , they saw messages that i left on your phone and they realized that i 'm the one -- that i knew what you had done , and i did n't say anything . and i ... oh , i tried to deny it -- marlena : whoa , whoa . what the hell are you doing here ? this is hal . haley : just ... i feel so guilty . maybe claire would n't have gone over the edge if you and i had n't gotten married . tripp : no , no , that 's my fault , not yours . i did n't think about what this would do to claire . she was so ... so fragile . haley : yeah . well ... the good news is , since our marriage was outed as a fraud and has been officially annulled , you , tripp dalton , are no longer stuck being married to me . tripp : it was n't so bad . i got some really good wedding cake out of it . haley : oh , yeah , that was -- that was really good cake . tripp : yeah , it was . haley : hey , um , thank you so much for everything . you were the best fake husband i ever could 've asked for . [ gentle music ] john : i know you want to protect claire . she 's not well , vic . she ca n't run from this . victor : i 'll see to it she gets all the help she needs as soon as she 's safely out of the country . john : yeah , and then what ? do you really expect claire to be a fugitive the rest of her life ? victor : as opposed to what , being caged up like an animal ? john : you know , she stands a really good chance of avoiding jail time here , so no running . we just play this out . victor : at the risk of her freedom . no , i ca n't see it . i ca n't accept that . john : well , why do you think it 's up to you , vic ? doc and i , belle , shawn , you know , we know what 's best for claire right now , and that is , she has to face the consequences of her actions and get the help that she needs . victor : she always was a little troublemaker . i admired that about her . but this , i ... putting a match to her own aunt ? and those other two , i mean it 's incomprehensible . how could things have gotten so bad and someone not seen something ? john : well , actually , someone did . and they did n't lift a finger to help her . eve : i -- i just came to see how claire was doing . ciara : now you care about her ? marlena : you need to leave . claire : it 's okay , she can -- ciara : no , claire , it 's not okay . eve knew you were in trouble , and she did n't give a damn . eve : no , that is not true , ciara . ciara : did you know that claire was in trouble ? how long did you tell yourself that it was okay ? tripp and haley could have died . i could have died . she tried to kill herself because of you ! because all -- marlena : not the time . not the time . or the place . ciara : you 're right . [ sighs ] you are absolutely right , because eve will get everything that 's coming to her . you 're gon na lose your job . your freedom . everything that you love . and it 's exactly what you deserve . your life is over . eve : i know that you do n't believe this , but i ... i care deeply for claire , and i feel terrible about what happened to her . marlena : oh , i think you feel terrible because you got caught . let 's go . or should i call hospital security ? claire : grandma , wait . y - you have it all wrong , okay ? eve had no idea that i set the fire . she 's completely innocent . -and ... that 's your basic three - point turn . eli : since belle has n't allowed anyone to question claire given how fragile she is , eve refuses to drop the charges against ben , even though they 're bogus . hope : given that claire has admitted to it , she 's gon na have to . the judge is about to make a decision about claire 's future . where 's her phone now ? eli : i logged it into evidence . hope : evidence , well , i do n't think that 's the best place for it right now . not with eve as commissioner . i think it 'd be better if you moved it someplace less accessible , and the sooner the better . eli : yeah , i 'm on right now . hope : okay . eli : hey , hey , you called me about some unofficial police business . hope : it can wait . you just stay on eve , okay ? i do n't want her slithering out of what she 's done to my granddaughter . ciara : claire , you do n't have to cover for her . claire : i 'm not . i 'm telling the truth . marlena : we 'll talk about all this later . right now , you -- let 's go . eve : i 'll be thinking of you , sweetheart . marlena : [ clears throat ] eve : okay . claire : why are you here ? ciara : i wanted to see how you were doing . claire : what ? ciara , i ... i tried to kill you . you should hate me . ciara : i do n't hate you . claire : well , you should . you really should , because i hate myself . and look , i know it probably does n't mean much right now , but ... i am so , so sorry . [ melancholy music ] ben : what were you doing in there , eve ? eve : i came to see how claire was doing . marlena : you 're trying to manipulate her . you want to play on her sympathy so that she will side with you . eve : no , that is not true . marlena : well , it worked . because claire believes that eve knew nothing about those fires . eve : because it 's the truth . ben : no , it 's bull . eve , we heard the voicemail you left on claire 's phone . you knew what she did , and you tried to frame me for it . eve : ben , i was just doing my job . all the evidence pointed right to you as the arsonist . i mean , any reasonable person would jump to that conclusion . ben : there 's nothing reasonable about you . and there 's no way in hell you 're gon na get away with this . eve : are you threatening the police commissioner here , ben ? marlena : no . of course not . we 'd like you to know , though , that we 've turned claire 's phone over to eli . it 's now considered evidence . and your voice on that phone is going to sink you . eve : well , we 'll see about that , wo n't we ? victor : so eve donovan knew that claire was off her rocker and just kept the information to herself . john : yeah . victor : i always knew that lowlife was a piece of trash , but this a new low even for her . john : i 'm with you on that one , vic . victor : well , she 's not gon na get away with it , i promise you that . john : well , doc and i , we 're already working on it . victor : mm . all by the book , i 'm sure . well , if you do n't manage to put that bitch behind bars , we 'll do it my way . john : [ laughs ] let us handle this , okay ? victor : i 'm an impatient man . and the clock is ticking . john : i 'll take that as a yes . and ... i got ta run . i got ta get back to the hospital . victor : keep me updated . john : you know i will . victor : all right . and john , see to it that claire gets everything she needs . spare no expense . i owe to her ... and caroline and bo . john : yeah . victor : and john , give her a hug from me . john : i 'll do that , vic . ciara : tulips . these , uh ... these remind me of when we were little kids and ... our families met up in amsterdam for vacation . claire : we got into so much trouble that summer . [ laughs ] ciara : yeah . we had so much fun . you were , uh ... you were always my favorite person to visit , you know that ? always so glamorous and interesting . claire : me , really ? glamorous and interesting ? ciara : yeah , i mean ... you traveled the world . you saw all these amazing places . you did all this cool stuff . i was totally envious of you , claire . claire : well , i was envious of you and how you got to grow up in one place . you had a real home . always surrounded by a bunch of family and friends . ciara : you were my best friend . my best friend . i , uh ... i do n't know if , uh ... we can ever go back to the way we used to be , but i would really like to . claire : yeah , i know . so would i .

[ scene_break ] jason : sam . sam : yes ? jason : what are you doing here ? huh ? sam : well ... mmm . i texted my mom and told her i was on my way home , and she told me not to worry about it . she had everything under control . imagine that . jason : so you decided to stay here ? sam : i did . and i called monica to make sure danny was okay . and he 's enjoying his time with the quartermaines . jason : oh , are you sure ? he probably does n't even miss us , does he ? sam : no , he will , if this takes too long . so i came back to help you . jason : okay . well , the sooner we find nikolas and ava , the sooner we can go home and see him . [ scene_break ] ava : well , you cassadines -- you do n't really go in for understated , do you ? nikolas : no , not really . then again , i have seen photographs of our other places in russia , and this place is a shack by comparison . ava : what 's this ? nikolas : that is the cassadine family history . ava : ah . nikolas : ancestors brought it out of russia . do n't read it before bed . ava : [ chuckles ] nikolas : everything you hear about my family is either true or sanitized for public consumption . ava : what about you ? nikolas : you could call me the , uh , white sheep of the family . ava : ah . and why is that ? how did you turn out to be so , i do n't know , for lack of a better word , good ? nikolas : i staged my own murder , skipped town , letting everyone i love believe that i 'm dead , including my mother . i do n't know how good i am . ava : you do seem to have a streak of decency a mile wide . you know , when i was a little girl , like most girls , probably , i dreamt of being a princess . so i think i 'm a little jealous of you .

[ scene_break ] griffin : the first two victims were infirm patients , which means the killer appears to consider himself , or herself , some sort of angel of mercy , putting the victims out of their misery . dr. obrecht : neither lucas jones nor dr. mayes were infirm . griffin : there the pattern is n't so clear - cut . right now all we know for certain is that dr. finn was in jail during the time of this murder , so he ca n't be the killer . dr. obrecht : no . [ clears throat ] i suppose he can not . franco : i have a question . did n't you start working here just before the killings began ? dr. obrecht : yes . how do we know you 're not this so - called angel of mercy ? griffin : you 'll have to take it on faith . the worst thing we can do right now is accuse each other of this crime . if you 'll excuse me , i have to go check on some labs . dr. obrecht : smart move , franco . this will throw the suspicion off of you . franco : liesl , why are you so worried about who looks guilty of this crime ? [ scene_break ] maxie : i see you worked at on the bias . claudette : for three years . maxie : excellent boutique magazine . i love their editor . claudette : carolyn was amazing . and i got a lot of great opportunities there . maxie : so then you freelanced for a year and a half . claudette : i did . maxie : okay . equally impressive titles . so , what makes you want to put roots down in one publishing company ? claudette : i can only imagine how amazing it must be to work at crimson right now . nina reeves has really turned that magazine around . maxie : she 's an excellent collaborator . claudette : and that 's what i love most about this -- the collaboration . i would love to be part of such a rich creative process . maxie : we should order . claudette : you 're engaged ! maxie : i am !

[ scene_break ] finn : uh , to clarify , did you refer to dr. mayes ' murder as `` good news `` ? tracy : yes . hayden : tracy , he was a human being . tracy : oh . well , obviously , you 're not acquainted with his bedside manner . oh , i see i 'm being perceived as insensitive . hayden : well ... a little . tracy : okay , i concede that perhaps his family may not consider his untimely death as a good thing . however , for you , it is a spectacular thing . finn : how so ? tracy : well , considering the fact that he was murdered while you were locked up in this place , you 're officially off the suspect list . finn : well , now i appreciate your enthusiasm . i do . but as you may recall , uh , that 's not the reason why i 'm in jail . tracy : no . you are in jail because you saved baby edward 's life , for which i will never be able to repay you . finn : no , you do n't -- you do n't have to . tracy : and yet i am going to try . i 'm gon na have a team of elq lawyers negotiate your release immediately . [ scene_break ] nathan : i need to know where you were at the time of the murder . according to your statement , you were visiting your mother . franco : yes ... i was . well , that was easy . if you do n't have any more questions -- nathan : no , i do . i do . there 's a 20-minute window before elizabeth places you at the scene . franco : um , i was at the cafeteria . i was getting a pudding pop , because they 're delicious . have you tried one ? you should have one . jake turned me onto them . nathan : hmm . you were there for 20 minutes ? franco : mm , yeah . then i left , and , um , i heard elizabeth screaming , and then when i got to the room , elizabeth was already on the floor with dr. mayes . nathan : fair enough . i 'm gon na need your receipt from the cafeteria . franco : okay . you got me . here 's the thing . um , the cafeteria might have been closed at that hour . now , hypothetically , i might have an arrangement with some of the cafeteria staff where they give me free run of the walk - in , and in exchange , i give their kids free reign of all the crayons they can manage from the art therapy room . nathan : so your alibi is that you were stealing pudding pops from a closed cafeteria ? franco : yeah . shh . [ chuckles ] i mean , it 's just so crazy , it 's got to be true , right ? nathan : [ chuckles ] [ scene_break ] dr. obrecht : nurse webber . now that you 've finished answering questions , you may feel free to go back to work . elizabeth : i am working , and you 're not my boss anymore . dr. obrecht : more 's the pity . elizabeth : hey . you all right ? how 'd it go with nathan ? [ scene_break ] jason : by the time i found the garden shed , nikolas and ava were gone . sam : well , why do n't you go back to melton arms and pick up their trail from there ? jason : uh , well , i , uh -- i was , um , detained for a bit . sam : what 's that supposed to mean ? jason : well , it seems that huxley did n't want witnesses , so he sent somebody to shut me up . sam : he did ? jason : he did . sam : where is that guy now ? jason : well , if he knows how to untie knots , he would have been able to get out of that chair and recuperate at home . sam : i knew we could n't trust huxley ! jason : yeah , well , huxley 's not the issue here . once again , we 've lost nikolas and ava , and now we 've got to figure out a new way to find them . [ scene_break ] ava : are you hungry ? i am so hungry . is there even any food here ? nikolas : i 'll look . do n't worry . my grandmother literally thought she was going to live forever . she stocked the cellar accordingly . i 'll go down and see if i can scrounge up some provisions . ava : good , thanks . nikolas : oh . first i need to call my son . ava : right now ? nikolas : well , do n't worry . it 's a safe call . i gave him a burner phone that nobody knows about .

[ cell phone ringing ] spencer : hello , father ? [ scene_break ] claudette : [ sighs ] maxie : okay , c.j . , so , what would you change ? claudette : i love everything . but ... the typeface on this headline -- i think a serif font is a little too obvious , and i would go with something more modern , you know , to contrast . and on page 68 [ sighs ] i would scrap a few of these photos . not that they 're not gorgeous . it 's just if you cut four or five , i think it would make a bolder statement . maxie : huh . dillon : wow , did -- did maxie pay you to say all of that ? claudette : what do you mean ? dillon : no , it 's just that she literally said the exact same thing this morning . maxie : great minds . [ chuckles ] and since nina gave me carte blanche to make this decision , you are hired . claudette : thank you ! i ca n't wait to start working here . maxie : i ca n't wait for you to work here , either .

[ scene_break ] finn : i appreciate you putting the lawyers to work and all , but i broke a lot of laws , and i do n't think that even they can get me out of this one . tracy : ohh . never underestimate the power of an elq lawyer . in fact , i 'm gon na go see what 's happening with your release . guard . [ keys jingle ] [ lock disengages ] finn : man . well , do you think tracy can make that happen ? hayden : [ chuckles ] one way or the other , tracy quartermaine always gets what she wants . finn : [ chuckles ] hayden : so , what about your job ? i mean , even if you 're not in jail , you 're still suspended , right ? how will you get your medication ? finn : should i be lucky enough to be released from this fine establishment , i will have my source re - route my supply to the hotel . hayden : good . and if you 're not so lucky , i 've got you covered . finn : no . no . i appreciate everything you did for me , but i would never ask you to do that again . it 's too dangerous . [ scene_break ] nathan : thank you for coming in . dr. obrecht : of course . you 're my son . if you need help , all you need to do is ask . nathan : yeah . we need to talk about what 's been going on in this hospital . i need the schedule of everyone who 's worked in the last six months . think you can provide me with that ? [ scene_break ] sam : well , nikolas could go anywhere in the world . but what about ava ? she 's got two daughters back in port charles . she 's gon na have to return home to them soon at some point . but nikolas -- he does have spencer , and i 'm sure he 's gon na send for him . jason : so nikolas would want someplace private , somewhere he knows so it 's easier to blend in . sam : i do n't know , maybe we should go back to those destinations we found on his computer . what ? jason : it could n't be that easy . sam : what ? jason : [ sighs ] someplace private . someplace nikolas knows . a place where spencer would feel comfortable . a place where nikolas knows he would n't run into anybody who would recognize him . sam : what are you talking about ? jason : cassadine island . sam : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] spencer : father , are you there ? nikolas : hi . i , uh -- i just wanted to call you at our designated time , so that you did n't worry . spencer : it 's okay if you miss one call . just do n't miss two . nikolas : [ chuckles ] yeah . i 'll keep that in mind . how are you doing ? are you okay ? spencer : as well as can be expected . look , i 'm afraid i ca n't talk right now . nikolas : there are people near ? spencer : uh , something like that . nikolas : okay , well , say no more . listen , i - i just wanted to tell you that i love you and that we 're gon na be together again soon , okay ? spencer : how soon ? tonight when you go home , i want you to have a bag packed . only one , okay ? spencer : okay . nikolas : i 'll send someone for you shortly . spencer : that 's wonderful , father . i ca n't wait to see you again . laura : spencer ? are you talking to your father ? spencer , i overheard you telling your father that something was gon na be wonderful . spencer : yes , grandmother , uh , i said that . the truth is i talk to father all the time . i call his voicemail and leave a message , so i can hear his voice .

sam : what has carly done now ? epiphany : tried bribing the orderly to get into the supply closet so she can get her hand on another set of scrubs . sam : of course , she did . unbelievable . epiphany : that 's one woman i would not underestimate . sam : okay , i 'm gon na try to put a stop to this . thank you . epiphany : fine with me , because i am tired of carly stirring up a mess around here . jason : hey , can you , uh , come back later , please ? carly : jason . [ door closes ] carly : you 're okay ? jason : wh - what -- what are you dressed like that for ? carly : this is the only way i could get to you . this ca n't wait . maxie : just go before you miss the whole funeral , okay ? i have a job to do . spinelli : look , maxie -- you tell me to move out , i do . you tell me to make matt hunter jealous , i do . now , if you want me to go to the funeral alone , i will . but this might be the sole opportunity for all those that were closest to robin to be together under one roof . maxie : [ voice breaking ] th - those people do n't need me , spinelli . what they need is robin , and robin 's gone because of some horrible accident that did n't have to happen . spinelli : that 's the nature of accidents . maxie : yeah , well , it 's wrong , okay ? and i - i ca n't go back in time and make it different , so -- spinelli : maxie , it was n't your fault . of course you could n't -- maxie : can we drop this , spinelli -- like , now ? spinelli : hey . your thoughts and feelings have worth . and just as the words of others may ease your pain , what you have to say may ease theirs . look , i - i - i 'm just afraid that if you do n't go there today , you 're gon na hate yourself tomorrow and maybe for the rest of your life . maxie : goodbye , spinelli . spinelli : [ sighs ] maxie : [ crying ] sonny : i 've never seen anybody show more courage than robin did during stone 's illness . and while he -- he was slipping away , i - i actually watched her accept her own diagnosis . robin : you know , the worst thing about the way my parents died -- is that i never got a chance to say or do the things that i wanted to do . so , maybe we 're lucky with stone . i mean , it 's gon na be beyond horrible . but at least we have the chance to say what we need to , even if it 's just goodbye . sonny : robin was never one to give in to despair . she was -- she was -- she was gon na live her life to the fullest , and she was gon na give stone what he wished for , which was to live a great life , and she did that . we were close for a long time . she was like -- i considered her like my little sister . she inspired me . she made me want to be -- a better person . robin : you know , i used to be so scared of you . sonny : me ? robin : maybe `` intimidated `` is more like it -- until we had our first double date . [ chuckles ] do you remember brenda brought me over there to that apartment over luke 's and you made that incredible pasta dish ? you were really charming . you made me feel like a grown - up . like , you were actually interested in what i had to say . sonny : but in the end , i failed -- i failed her , 'cause i did something -- i did something that , uh , r - ruined our friendship . and i just wish i could make things right with her . obviously , i ca n't . but maybe someday i - i can get the chance to -- to do that with the people she cared about most -- her family . come on . let 's get out of here . kate : are you sure ? sonny : yeah . i 'm sure . said what i -- what i wanted to say . [ sniffles ] sam : oh , epiphany , i - i have a question . so , this orderly who claims that carly tried to bribe him -- do you trust him ? epiphany : i 've never had any problems out of ramón , and there was nothing missing from the supply closet . sam : okay . so -- but maybe when he refused to give her access , she found another way . epiphany : or maybe she wised up and went home . sam : are you kidding me ? this is carly we 're talking about . she thinks it 's her god - given right to have access to jason , and i do n't want to do anything that 's gon na upset him , especially not until patrick says that he 's well enough . epiphany : look , you have my word that carly is not going to get anywhere near your husband 's room . to do that , she would have to go through me , and that ai n't happening . sam : yes , but you are only one person . epiphany : i 've put her picture up in the staff areas . if carly goes anywhere near your husband 's room , we 'll know about it . sam : [ sighs ] i appreciate your support , epiphany , but this is carly we 're talking about . carly : they said you were gon na be okay . i just had to see for myself . jason : yeah , i 'm fine , carly . i 'm fine . carly : oh . thank god robin 's drug worked . jason : a - are you okay ? carly : yeah , i 'm fine . i -- why did n't you tell me how sick you were ? i would have been here the whole time . jason : i know . i just did n't want you to worry , you know ? carly : worry ? well , too bad . jason : i did n't want you to fight with sam . carly : yeah , well -- jason : you gon na tell me why you 're dressed like that ? carly : it was the only way i could get in to see you . there 's something you need to know . sam : i mean , just because carly could n't get her hands on another pair of scrubs does n't mean she 's given up . epiphany : look , short of posting guards outside of jason 's room , i do n't know what else we can do . sam : well , i 'm gon na have to find her and shut her down . epiphany : if you find carly on hospital grounds , you call security . now , i have to get back to work . sam : thank you . what ? epiphany : you know what ? you might want to look in the locker room . she might be changing there . lord knows why , because the woman is not modest . do you know that when i caught her , she stripped out of those stolen scrubs right here in this hallway and walked out in her underwear ? sam : does n't surprise me . carly : i was banned from your room . jason : what ? sam banned you ? carly : [ chuckles ] she 's being a little overprotective right now . jason : well , she is pregnant . carly : i know , and i 'm trying , jason . i 'm really trying here . jason : sam knows how important you are to me . you do n't have to keep proving it , carly . carly : i just wanted to see you . are n't you happy to see me ? jason : of course i 'm happy . i 'm just -- i 'm asking you to take it easy on sam . this whole thing does n't have to be a big fight . carly : that 's why i dressed like this , you know ? i could get in to see you , and sam would n't have to know . jason : what are n't you telling me ? maxie : [ crying ] spinelli : look , i - i - i 'm just afraid that if you do n't go there today , you 're gon na hate yourself tomorrow and maybe for the rest of your life . maxie : [ crying continues ] anna : um , well , i do n't think it can be argued that robin was a truly magnificent human being . you know , seriously , i used to look at her and think , `` oh , my gosh . how did i possibly give birth to her ? `` she was very kind and very forgiving , especially to me . and she became so accomplished and just capable -- you know ? and so self - sufficient always . robin : what happened to your hair ? anna : my hair ? um , do n't you like it ? robin : it 's brown like mine . anna : yes , i got tired of being blond . robin : you look better this way . anna : i feel better . robin : you know what ? anna : what ? robin : you look kind of like me now . anna : yeah . i thought that , too . robin : [ chuckles ] anna : i 'd like to think that i instilled those qualities in her [ sniffles ] before circumstances took me away for all those years . but , of course , i did n't . i mean , she came by all that herself . and from you , actually . anna : i do n't think i 'm gon na be away from you for more than a minute , 'cause you just -- you 're just growing up so fast . i do n't know . i 'm gon na miss something one of these days . robin : like what ? anna : [ sighs ] well , it just seems that every time you go away from me , you 're like -- you age two years . robin : i age two years ? anna : yeah . robin : if i go away for a month , i 'd be older than you . [ both laugh ] then i could tell you what to do . anna : oh . never . robin : [ giggles ] anna : go away for six months , you 'll be a geriatric . [ both laugh ] anna : she had so much love and support from so many people . it takes a village , does n't it ? quite an eclectic village , are n't you ? thank you . thank you -- for everything you gave to my daughter and for everything [ sniffles ] that you shared that she gave back to you . especially you , mac . you know , you were her hero . you know that , do n't you ? [ sniffles ] 'cause you were there for her all the time that i was n't . [ sighs ] i 'm trying very hard here to be grateful for the fact that [ sniffles ] you know , i was here for -- well , i got to hug her one last time . i really treasure [ sniffles ] every embrace i ever shared with her . i am very , very proud of the woman my daughter became . and her solid , strong marriage that she built with you , patrick . and my gorgeous , little granddaughter , emma grace . [ chuckles ] robin : promise you 'll love me forever ? robert : forever . anna : promise . robert : yep . robin : okay . i 'll forgive you . robert : mm . robin : but do n't ever do that again . [ both laugh ] anna : uh , well , her father could n't be here , but i know that he 'd probably say something the same as this , you know . i - i 'm -- uh , i have a letter from robin 's father . anna : oh , you do ? oh . it was delivered here with instructions for it to be read by luke spencer . luke : `` i know robin 's mother is disappointed i 'm not there today . probably others are , too . all i can say in my defense is i was sent off on an important mission by -- someone i trust more than anyone else in this world -- and to whom i 'm eternally grateful for helping me when i needed it most . robin 's death sent me into a tailspin because i knew how badly i 'd failed her . she was handicapped from the start having me as a father . but somehow , she turned out brilliantly , for which her mother deserves most of the credit . `` kate : that was a lovely speech you made . sonny : robin meant a lot to me . kate : must have brought up a bunch of memories for you -- robin and stone , you and brenda . sonny : but it 's all gone now -- you know , that part of my life . [ liquid pouring ] stone died , brenda 's gone , and -- robin 's death is pretty much the end of it . kate : but it never really ends , does it , sonny ? who we were then is part of who we are now , much as we try to deny it . to robin . sonny : to robin . [ glasses clink ] sonny : i want to thank you again for being there for me , okay ? 'cause it would have been so much harder if you were n't there . kate : i 'm glad i could have been there for you for a change . sonny : for a change ? what does that mean ? kate : i 've been all over the place lately . i 'm sorry . sonny : as long as you 're not running for the , you know , exits , i 'm -- i 'm not complaining . but i 'm gon na -- i 'm gon na -- i am gon na bring up the -- the text , okay ? kate : what about it ? sonny : well , i mean , you -- like i said , you -- you text me to come to your office . i came right away . you were n't here . what was that about ? ewen : [ clears throat ] [ sighs ] sam : i know you 're in here , damn it . show yourself . ewen : if you insist . carly : i get that sam was worried about you , but come on . i 'm -- i 'm your best friend . i would never do anything to hurt you . jason : i know that . i know . but sam is -- is dealing with a lot right now , and i 'm just asking you to cut her some slack . carly : she had me banned , okay ? she put my picture at the front desk so people knew -- why are you laughing ? jason : because that -- that 's -- that 's funny , carly . carly : what if you died and i was n't here ? jason : i did n't -- i did n't die . and you 're still not saying what you came in to say . what is it ? carly : that 's why i was banned . sam does n't want me to say it . luke : `` i loved my daughter very much . she was my pride and joy , my greatest gift . i hope she knew , even if i did n't say it enough or find the right ways to express it . i like to think she did . robin was very intuitive , wise beyond her years , and , fortunately for me , had a great capacity to forgive . `` [ paper rustles ] would anyone else care to speak ? then we will say our final -- patrick : wait . i 've discovered gold . patrick : [ sniffles ] [ sighs ] i - i ca n't believe i 'm here . [ sighs ] [ sniffles ] i do n't think there 's anything i can say about robin that -- [ sniffles ] that you all have n't already said or that you do n't know . and i think that 's pretty amazing . she was strong . she was brilliant . you know , i thought my life was complete , and then this -- beautiful but bossy little thing came into my life , and -- she changed it all . when i met her , a world opened up to me that -- that i did n't know , a - a world that -- people mattered . family mattered . and love and -- the future mattered . she taught me compassion and perseverance , and she -- she taught me that it -- it was n't enough just to be great -- that you had to care . and she cared so much about her family and her co - workers and her friends -- and i feel so lucky because she cared about me . she loved me so much . and she loved being a mom . and she loved our little daughter . robin -- she taught me and she showed me how to dream . she -- she made me feel that it was possible -- if you had love , anything was possible . sonny : so , about the text last night . i dropped everything , came running over here . there was n't even a note . kate : i 'm sorry about that , sonny . sonny : no , i do n't -- i do n't want you to apologize . i 'm just curious . ewen : in rare instances , when a person is unable to cope with stressful or traumatic situations , they subconsciously call upon another part of themselves . we call this `` dissociative identity disorder . `` sonny : kate . why did you need to see me ? ewen : you did tell me to show myself . sam : to -- to show yourself . i know . i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to barge in here like this . i - i understand this is for hospital staff only . ewen : no harm , no foul . sam : [ sighs ] have you seen carly jacks ? ewen : carly jacks ? sam : yeah , she 's tall , blond , 30s , really annoying , blue eyes . ewen : i believe that 's her picture right here . sam : where ? yep . uh - huh . that 's her . ewen : and you thought she 'd be in here because ? sam : um , well , because i thought maybe she 'd be changing into some hospital- staff clothes . my -- my husband is down the hall , recovering in a room . ewen : i see . sam : well , she -- she 's not the other woman or anything . it 's not like that . i mean , she is kind of , like , sort of like the other woman . i mean , she 'd love to jump in bed with my husband . i mean , she would never say no . carly would do just about anything to take my place in jason 's life . jason : are you in some kind of trouble ? carly : no . jason : i - is michael ? carly : he 's fine . he 's fine . jason : okay . then wh - why are you having such a hard time with this ? carly : you know there 's nothing i would n't do for you . jason : i - it 's not about you and me . this is about me and sam . carly : sam -- sam -- i know ! she 's your wife , okay ? i get that , and i respect it . i would just like sam to respect my place as your friend , okay ? jason : carly , do we really have to -- carly : this is not about putting you in the middle , okay , jason ? that 's not what i 'm trying to do here . jason : okay . just i need you to understand something . this whole thing with franco has been really , really tough on sam . carly : this is tough on me ! you 're -- you 're sick , and -- and i 'm banned ! i ca n't get into your room all because sam knows best ? ! jason : sam thought i was gon na die . carly : so did i ! [ sighs ] jason : okay , listen , it 's not -- it 's not fair that sam would n't let you in to see me . but if it made sam feel like she was just in a little more control , then i 'm grateful that you went along with it . carly : [ voice breaking ] you 're thanking me for not sneaking in sooner ? jason : nobody was gon na stop you . carly : [ chuckles ] jason : and the fact that it took you this long and sam felt better -- i - i - i do appreciate it . carly : it 's just so sweet the way you want to take care of sam . it just makes what i have to tell you even harder . patrick : with robin , everything was just -- everything was better . everything -- everything was more special and -- [ voice breaking ] i just -- i do n't know how -- i -- matt : hey . hey . hey . hey . patrick : i 'm sorry . matt : it 's okay . it 's all right . do n't worry about it . you all right ? patrick : [ sniffles ] yeah . matt : come on . take a seat . if no one else has anything they 'd like to say , we can -- maxie : i do . i have something i 'd like to say . luke : this does n't look good . anna : is she all right ? mac : i do n't know , but i hope this helps her . welcome . we were all just sharing our thoughts about robin . lulu : why did n't she change ? spinelli : at least she 's here . lulu : i just hope she does n't make it worse . kate : sonny , would n't you rather talk about robin ? i mean , you two were so close . and with the arrest and arraignment , you 've barely had any time to grieve . sonny : you 're right . have i thanked you enough for being at the church ? it just was very important for me to pay my respects , you know , even though i - i was the last person patrick wanted to see . kate : i know that . sonny : i just wish that i was a - a better speaker , 'cause i wanted everybody to know how courageous robin was . can you imagine a girl in high school -- having to hold a person 's hand while he dies ? i do n't feel like i put that across -- what that meant for me . kate : you did . sonny : y - you have no idea how bad i screwed up , how far out of control i was last summer . and not -- and not only did i -- did i -- did i lose my friendship with robin -- but that i could -- that i could make people think that i 'm the kind of guy that would -- would cause an accident and kill a - a man and a little girl and run from it ? kate : you 're not . sonny : i do n't have many people on my side right now , and i do n't know where i would be if -- if -- if you were n't with me . i 'm not gon na lose you . sam : so , if you see carly , can you please call security and , um , maybe sit her down and try and talk some sense into her ? because she needs professional help . her attachment to my husband is just not normal . ewen : oh , normal 's overrated . sam : yes , doctor , i realize you think that we are all very unique and special , but her obsession with my husband is just , uh , out of touch with reality . ewen : whose ? sam : jason 's . he 's married . ewen : which , to you , means he has to sever all his friendships ? sam : no . ewen : just this one ? sam : no . not -- not sever . there 's just boundaries that you have to respect . ewen : and who sets these boundaries -- you ? your husband ? sam : well , we kind of both did . i mean , b - before we got married , we sat her down and we let her know that things had to change . she could n't just come barging in our life anymore . ewen : well , i take it she 's crossed the line ? sam : [ scoffs ] yes . i mean , she 's crossed several lines . it 's always about carly . i mean , she stakes her claim on my husband . it 's -- it 's like -- it 's -- i mean , i 'm the one that he 's married to , and she comes first , and i might as well just take a number . ewen : [ clears throat ] and your husband , what does -- what does he feel about this ? sam : does n't matter . carly does n't take `` no `` for an answer . ewen : is it possible that your husband 's boundaries are somehow different than yours ? sam : my husband is n't well , and he is sitting in a hospital room , and i am afraid if carly gets to him , she could kill him . carly : i - i get that sam is pregnant and -- and she 's hormonal and maybe a little insecure . i understand that . i 'm not trying to make this worse , okay ? jason : then m - maybe you can just back off a little and -- and let sam think that she 's the one in charge for -- carly : you want sam to make decisions for you ? jason : well , it 's not like she had a choice , carly . i was unconscious . carly : what about when you were n't ? i mean , do you want her making decisions for you then ? jason : w - where are -- where are you going with this ? carly : sam has n't been honest with you . spinelli : maxie needs to grieve in her own way . lulu : not if she does something she 'll regret it . excuse me . hey , um , matt and i saved you a seat . i think it would be good for you -- maxie : i - i need to say something . lulu : uh , father coates was about to start the service . matt : yeah , i - i think it 'd be best if you just had a seat . if you 'd like , take a moment to compose yourself . we 'll continue with the service . i 'll give you a chance to speak later . maxie : i - i have to say something . now . i 've had surgery , and yes , i have occasional constipation . maxie : i 'm sorry i 'm late . i almost did n't come , but then someone told me that i 'd hate myself forever if i did n't say goodbye . lulu : so far , so good . maxie : what no one understands is that i already hate myself for what i did to robin , and you 're all going to hate me , too . kate : i 'm not going anywhere . all right ? sonny : yeah . i - i just want you to know you can be honest with me about anything . kate : i know that . sonny : and if you want to tell me anything about the text -- kate : it was nothing . the text was nothing . sonny : you seeing -- you seeing another guy ? kate : no . of course not . sonny : then who is , uh , ewen keenan ? ewen : you think that carly 's connection to your husband is somehow going to cause her to turn violent ? sam : no . ewen : but you said she was going to kill him . sam : but telling him something . ewen : i 'm a big believer in the power of words , but that 's a stretch . sam : no , my -- my husband had a cerebral edema , and any upset or emotional stress could have caused a fatal seizure . ewen : no wonder you 're so protective . sam : see [ sighs ] the doctors were working on this special drug protocol , and -- something happened , something bad happened , and i did n't -- i did n't tell my husband when i knew he would have wanted to know . ewen : a lie of omission . sam : only because i wanted to save his life . jason : what do you mean , sam has n't been honest ? carly : there are some things she has n't told you . jason : uh , okay , like -- like what ? about my condition ? carly : no . jason : what ? carly : i do n't know . i do n't think she trusts you , per se . jason : okay , you know what ? do n't -- do n't make sam the bad guy . i had two seizures that last day . robin said any stress would kill me if -- if she -- carly : sam has been lying to you for days , since before patrick performed the procedure . and i get that sam 's scared . hell , we 're all scared , but it 's over , and sam ca n't keep treating you this way . jason : what -- what did sam lie about ? carly : robin . mac : you do n't have to do this . maxie : yes , i do . mac , please , just sit down . sit down , mac . i need to -- to say this . please . it 's my fault because i was with robin in the lab that night before the explosion . i needed her . it does n't matter why . th - the point is , robin was working , but i was too focused on myself and my stupid problems to notice , because that 's me -- selfish . [ voice breaking ] robin is -- was -- the most generous , patient , kindest person on the planet . and i wanted her to drop everything and focus on me . and it did n't matter that she was busy trying to save jason 's life . maxie : i wanted robin to come with me to a party . that was my big emergency -- a party . robin was busy saving a life , and when she turned me down , i got mad and i called her selfish . i wanted robin to defend me and to fix my problems , and i wanted her to pay attention to me instead of the person who really needed her . spinelli : okay , maxie , look , please stop , okay ? y - you 're being too hard on yourself . maxie : you do n't know , spinelli . you were n't there ! spinelli : i 'm sure dr. robin understood . however ill - considered , your demand for attention w - was momentary , not the total sum of your relationship . maxie : you 're wrong , spinelli . what happened that night is exactly who i am . kate : dr. keenan is my doctor . sonny : a - are you sick ? is that what your text -- kate : i 'm not sick . sonny , you 're making more of this than it is . i am sorry that i was n't here , that i texted you . i got busy and distracted . sonny : so , what does he do ? what 's his specialty ? kate : he 's a psychiatrist . sonny : you got a psychiatrist in chicago . kate : i need one here . sonny : oh . kate : i - i do n't want -- want to have to fly across to chicago every time i need to talk to someone about my problems . sonny : talk to someone about me because you 're not over me getting shot ? are you having second thoughts ? kate : no . sonny : then why are you so tense ? kate : because you make me nervous when you ask me all these questions ! sonny : i just never heard of this guy . where did you find him ? sam : carly wants to tell jason that robin is dead , and she does n't care what it 's gon na do to him , that it could possibly kill him . ewen : is he still in critical condition ? sam : well , i mean , he 's better , but i - i do n't want to do anything until his doctor tells me that he 's strong enough . and carly does n't want to wait . and here i go . i 'm unloading everything on you . i 'm sorry . ewen : come on . come on . what you 've been through with your husband -- his illness -- is terrifying . it 's understandable that you 're scared . but it does n't necessarily mean that he 's still at risk . sam : yeah , well , jason is n't the best judge of what he can handle . so , until i know he 's well enough , i 've got to make these decisions . and i have to find carly before it 's too late . jason : i do n't -- i do n't want to fight about robin . carly : i do n't , either . jason : okay , whatever you think of her , carly , she saved my life . carly : i know . and i will always be grateful . it 's really hard when someone gives you a gift and you can never repay them . i mean , you ca n't comfortably despise them , and you 're sitting there reconsidering all the horrible things you thought about them and all the assumptions you made , like that you were always right and they were always wrong , and then all of a sudden , you see the good that everyone -- jason : did -- did something happen to robin ? carly : i 'm so sorry . i 'm so sorry . jason : what ? what ? ! carly : robin 's dead . spinelli : okay , with all due respect to your pain , i - i 'm sure everyone here has -- has replayed those final moments that they -- they had with robin and -- and -- and regrets not telling her how much she meant to them . robin was an exceptional person a - and brilliant , caring , and unfailingly generous . and -- and i 'm sure everyone wishes that they made a point to thank her for her friendship . but it is a mistake to think that robin was unaware of your feelings or that she resented your final words . robin knew the best of you , maxie . that 's what she treasured about you . maxie : well , she should n't have , because i did n't deserve it . spinelli : i - i think robin would disagree . maxie : robin 's dead , spinelli ! she ca n't do anything else for anyone anymore because of me . i killed robin . | spinelli tries to convince maxie to go to robin 's funeral . she refuses . robin 's family and friends gather to remember her . sonny says a few words and leaves because his presence makes patrick uncomfortable . luke reads a letter from robert in his absence . patrick breaks down in tears while he is trying to speak . maxie comes in at the last minute and says she would like to say something . she says she hates herself for what she did to robin and they are all going to hate her too . spinelli stands up and tells maxie that robin cherished the best in her and that he knows she did n't hold whatever she said in their final moments together against her . maxie says robin would disagree because she is dead because of her . she says she killed robin . | <s>[INST] sam : what has carly done now ? epiphany : tried bribing the orderly to get into the supply closet so she can get her hand on another set of scrubs . sam : of course , she did . unbelievable . epiphany : that 's one woman i would not underestimate . sam : okay , i 'm gon na try to put a stop to this . thank you . epiphany : fine with me , because i am tired of carly stirring up a mess around here . jason : hey , can you , uh , come back later , please ? carly : jason . [ door closes ] carly : you 're okay ? jason : wh - what -- what are you dressed like that for ? carly : this is the only way i could get to you . this ca n't wait . maxie : just go before you miss the whole funeral , okay ? i have a job to do . spinelli : look , maxie -- you tell me to move out , i do . you tell me to make matt hunter jealous , i do . now , if you want me to go to the funeral alone , i will . but this might be the sole opportunity for all those that were closest to robin to be together under one roof . maxie : [ voice breaking ] th - those people do n't need me , spinelli . what they need is robin , and robin 's gone because of some horrible accident that did n't have to happen . spinelli : that 's the nature of accidents . maxie : yeah , well , it 's wrong , okay ? and i - i ca n't go back in time and make it different , so -- spinelli : maxie , it was n't your fault . of course you could n't -- maxie : can we drop this , spinelli -- like , now ? spinelli : hey . your thoughts and feelings have worth . and just as the words of others may ease your pain , what you have to say may ease theirs . look , i - i - i 'm just afraid that if you do n't go there today , you 're gon na hate yourself tomorrow and maybe for the rest of your life . maxie : goodbye , spinelli . spinelli : [ sighs ] maxie : [ crying ] sonny : i 've never seen anybody show more courage than robin did during stone 's illness . and while he -- he was slipping away , i - i actually watched her accept her own diagnosis . robin : you know , the worst thing about the way my parents died -- is that i never got a chance to say or do the things that i wanted to do . so , maybe we 're lucky with stone . i mean , it 's gon na be beyond horrible . but at least we have the chance to say what we need to , even if it 's just goodbye . sonny : robin was never one to give in to despair . she was -- she was -- she was gon na live her life to the fullest , and she was gon na give stone what he wished for , which was to live a great life , and she did that . we were close for a long time . she was like -- i considered her like my little sister . she inspired me . she made me want to be -- a better person . robin : you know , i used to be so scared of you . sonny : me ? robin : maybe `` intimidated `` is more like it -- until we had our first double date . [ chuckles ] do you remember brenda brought me over there to that apartment over luke 's and you made that incredible pasta dish ? you were really charming . you made me feel like a grown - up . like , you were actually interested in what i had to say . sonny : but in the end , i failed -- i failed her , 'cause i did something -- i did something that , uh , r - ruined our friendship . and i just wish i could make things right with her . obviously , i ca n't . but maybe someday i - i can get the chance to -- to do that with the people she cared about most -- her family . come on . let 's get out of here . kate : are you sure ? sonny : yeah . i 'm sure . said what i -- what i wanted to say . [ sniffles ] sam : oh , epiphany , i - i have a question . so , this orderly who claims that carly tried to bribe him -- do you trust him ? epiphany : i 've never had any problems out of ramón , and there was nothing missing from the supply closet . sam : okay . so -- but maybe when he refused to give her access , she found another way . epiphany : or maybe she wised up and went home . sam : are you kidding me ? this is carly we 're talking about . she thinks it 's her god - given right to have access to jason , and i do n't want to do anything that 's gon na upset him , especially not until patrick says that he 's well enough . epiphany : look , you have my word that carly is not going to get anywhere near your husband 's room . to do that , she would have to go through me , and that ai n't happening . sam : yes , but you are only one person . epiphany : i 've put her picture up in the staff areas . if carly goes anywhere near your husband 's room , we 'll know about it . sam : [ sighs ] i appreciate your support , epiphany , but this is carly we 're talking about . carly : they said you were gon na be okay . i just had to see for myself . jason : yeah , i 'm fine , carly . i 'm fine . carly : oh . thank god robin 's drug worked . jason : a - are you okay ? carly : yeah , i 'm fine . i -- why did n't you tell me how sick you were ? i would have been here the whole time . jason : i know . i just did n't want you to worry , you know ? carly : worry ? well , too bad . jason : i did n't want you to fight with sam . carly : yeah , well -- jason : you gon na tell me why you 're dressed like that ? carly : it was the only way i could get in to see you . there 's something you need to know . sam : i mean , just because carly could n't get her hands on another pair of scrubs does n't mean she 's given up . epiphany : look , short of posting guards outside of jason 's room , i do n't know what else we can do . sam : well , i 'm gon na have to find her and shut her down . epiphany : if you find carly on hospital grounds , you call security . now , i have to get back to work . sam : thank you . what ? epiphany : you know what ? you might want to look in the locker room . she might be changing there . lord knows why , because the woman is not modest . do you know that when i caught her , she stripped out of those stolen scrubs right here in this hallway and walked out in her underwear ? sam : does n't surprise me . carly : i was banned from your room . jason : what ? sam banned you ? carly : [ chuckles ] she 's being a little overprotective right now . jason : well , she is pregnant . carly : i know , and i 'm trying , jason . i 'm really trying here . jason : sam knows how important you are to me . you do n't have to keep proving it , carly . carly : i just wanted to see you . are n't you happy to see me ? jason : of course i 'm happy . i 'm just -- i 'm asking you to take it easy on sam . this whole thing does n't have to be a big fight . carly : that 's why i dressed like this , you know ? i could get in to see you , and sam would n't have to know . jason : what are n't you telling me ? maxie : [ crying ] spinelli : look , i - i - i 'm just afraid that if you do n't go there today , you 're gon na hate yourself tomorrow and maybe for the rest of your life . maxie : [ crying continues ] anna : um , well , i do n't think it can be argued that robin was a truly magnificent human being . you know , seriously , i used to look at her and think , `` oh , my gosh . how did i possibly give birth to her ? `` she was very kind and very forgiving , especially to me . and she became so accomplished and just capable -- you know ? and so self - sufficient always . robin : what happened to your hair ? anna : my hair ? um , do n't you like it ? robin : it 's brown like mine . anna : yes , i got tired of being blond . robin : you look better this way . anna : i feel better . robin : you know what ? anna : what ? robin : you look kind of like me now . anna : yeah . i thought that , too . robin : [ chuckles ] anna : i 'd like to think that i instilled those qualities in her [ sniffles ] before circumstances took me away for all those years . but , of course , i did n't . i mean , she came by all that herself . and from you , actually . anna : i do n't think i 'm gon na be away from you for more than a minute , 'cause you just -- you 're just growing up so fast . i do n't know . i 'm gon na miss something one of these days . robin : like what ? anna : [ sighs ] well , it just seems that every time you go away from me , you 're like -- you age two years . robin : i age two years ? anna : yeah . robin : if i go away for a month , i 'd be older than you . [ both laugh ] then i could tell you what to do . anna : oh . never . robin : [ giggles ] anna : go away for six months , you 'll be a geriatric . [ both laugh ] anna : she had so much love and support from so many people . it takes a village , does n't it ? quite an eclectic village , are n't you ? thank you . thank you -- for everything you gave to my daughter and for everything [ sniffles ] that you shared that she gave back to you . especially you , mac . you know , you were her hero . you know that , do n't you ? [ sniffles ] 'cause you were there for her all the time that i was n't . [ sighs ] i 'm trying very hard here to be grateful for the fact that [ sniffles ] you know , i was here for -- well , i got to hug her one last time . i really treasure [ sniffles ] every embrace i ever shared with her . i am very , very proud of the woman my daughter became . and her solid , strong marriage that she built with you , patrick . and my gorgeous , little granddaughter , emma grace . [ chuckles ] robin : promise you 'll love me forever ? robert : forever . anna : promise . robert : yep . robin : okay . i 'll forgive you . robert : mm . robin : but do n't ever do that again . [ both laugh ] anna : uh , well , her father could n't be here , but i know that he 'd probably say something the same as this , you know . i - i 'm -- uh , i have a letter from robin 's father . anna : oh , you do ? oh . it was delivered here with instructions for it to be read by luke spencer . luke : `` i know robin 's mother is disappointed i 'm not there today . probably others are , too . all i can say in my defense is i was sent off on an important mission by -- someone i trust more than anyone else in this world -- and to whom i 'm eternally grateful for helping me when i needed it most . robin 's death sent me into a tailspin because i knew how badly i 'd failed her . she was handicapped from the start having me as a father . but somehow , she turned out brilliantly , for which her mother deserves most of the credit . `` kate : that was a lovely speech you made . sonny : robin meant a lot to me . kate : must have brought up a bunch of memories for you -- robin and stone , you and brenda . sonny : but it 's all gone now -- you know , that part of my life . [ liquid pouring ] stone died , brenda 's gone , and -- robin 's death is pretty much the end of it . kate : but it never really ends , does it , sonny ? who we were then is part of who we are now , much as we try to deny it . to robin . sonny : to robin . [ glasses clink ] sonny : i want to thank you again for being there for me , okay ? 'cause it would have been so much harder if you were n't there . kate : i 'm glad i could have been there for you for a change . sonny : for a change ? what does that mean ? kate : i 've been all over the place lately . i 'm sorry . sonny : as long as you 're not running for the , you know , exits , i 'm -- i 'm not complaining . but i 'm gon na -- i 'm gon na -- i am gon na bring up the -- the text , okay ? kate : what about it ? sonny : well , i mean , you -- like i said , you -- you text me to come to your office . i came right away . you were n't here . what was that about ? ewen : [ clears throat ] [ sighs ] sam : i know you 're in here , damn it . show yourself . ewen : if you insist . carly : i get that sam was worried about you , but come on . i 'm -- i 'm your best friend . i would never do anything to hurt you . jason : i know that . i know . but sam is -- is dealing with a lot right now , and i 'm just asking you to cut her some slack . carly : she had me banned , okay ? she put my picture at the front desk so people knew -- why are you laughing ? jason : because that -- that 's -- that 's funny , carly . carly : what if you died and i was n't here ? jason : i did n't -- i did n't die . and you 're still not saying what you came in to say . what is it ? carly : that 's why i was banned . sam does n't want me to say it . luke : `` i loved my daughter very much . she was my pride and joy , my greatest gift . i hope she knew , even if i did n't say it enough or find the right ways to express it . i like to think she did . robin was very intuitive , wise beyond her years , and , fortunately for me , had a great capacity to forgive . `` [ paper rustles ] would anyone else care to speak ? then we will say our final -- patrick : wait . i 've discovered gold . patrick : [ sniffles ] [ sighs ] i - i ca n't believe i 'm here . [ sighs ] [ sniffles ] i do n't think there 's anything i can say about robin that -- [ sniffles ] that you all have n't already said or that you do n't know . and i think that 's pretty amazing . she was strong . she was brilliant . you know , i thought my life was complete , and then this -- beautiful but bossy little thing came into my life , and -- she changed it all . when i met her , a world opened up to me that -- that i did n't know , a - a world that -- people mattered . family mattered . and love and -- the future mattered . she taught me compassion and perseverance , and she -- she taught me that it -- it was n't enough just to be great -- that you had to care . and she cared so much about her family and her co - workers and her friends -- and i feel so lucky because she cared about me . she loved me so much . and she loved being a mom . and she loved our little daughter . robin -- she taught me and she showed me how to dream . she -- she made me feel that it was possible -- if you had love , anything was possible . sonny : so , about the text last night . i dropped everything , came running over here . there was n't even a note . kate : i 'm sorry about that , sonny . sonny : no , i do n't -- i do n't want you to apologize . i 'm just curious . ewen : in rare instances , when a person is unable to cope with stressful or traumatic situations , they subconsciously call upon another part of themselves . we call this `` dissociative identity disorder . `` sonny : kate . why did you need to see me ? ewen : you did tell me to show myself . sam : to -- to show yourself . i know . i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to barge in here like this . i - i understand this is for hospital staff only . ewen : no harm , no foul . sam : [ sighs ] have you seen carly jacks ? ewen : carly jacks ? sam : yeah , she 's tall , blond , 30s , really annoying , blue eyes . ewen : i believe that 's her picture right here . sam : where ? yep . uh - huh . that 's her . ewen : and you thought she 'd be in here because ? sam : um , well , because i thought maybe she 'd be changing into some hospital- staff clothes . my -- my husband is down the hall , recovering in a room . ewen : i see . sam : well , she -- she 's not the other woman or anything . it 's not like that . i mean , she is kind of , like , sort of like the other woman . i mean , she 'd love to jump in bed with my husband . i mean , she would never say no . carly would do just about anything to take my place in jason 's life . jason : are you in some kind of trouble ? carly : no . jason : i - is michael ? carly : he 's fine . he 's fine . jason : okay . then wh - why are you having such a hard time with this ? carly : you know there 's nothing i would n't do for you . jason : i - it 's not about you and me . this is about me and sam . carly : sam -- sam -- i know ! she 's your wife , okay ? i get that , and i respect it . i would just like sam to respect my place as your friend , okay ? jason : carly , do we really have to -- carly : this is not about putting you in the middle , okay , jason ? that 's not what i 'm trying to do here . jason : okay . just i need you to understand something . this whole thing with franco has been really , really tough on sam . carly : this is tough on me ! you 're -- you 're sick , and -- and i 'm banned ! i ca n't get into your room all because sam knows best ? ! jason : sam thought i was gon na die . carly : so did i ! [ sighs ] jason : okay , listen , it 's not -- it 's not fair that sam would n't let you in to see me . but if it made sam feel like she was just in a little more control , then i 'm grateful that you went along with it . carly : [ voice breaking ] you 're thanking me for not sneaking in sooner ? jason : nobody was gon na stop you . carly : [ chuckles ] jason : and the fact that it took you this long and sam felt better -- i - i - i do appreciate it . carly : it 's just so sweet the way you want to take care of sam . it just makes what i have to tell you even harder . patrick : with robin , everything was just -- everything was better . everything -- everything was more special and -- [ voice breaking ] i just -- i do n't know how -- i -- matt : hey . hey . hey . hey . patrick : i 'm sorry . matt : it 's okay . it 's all right . do n't worry about it . you all right ? patrick : [ sniffles ] yeah . matt : come on . take a seat . if no one else has anything they 'd like to say , we can -- maxie : i do . i have something i 'd like to say . luke : this does n't look good . anna : is she all right ? mac : i do n't know , but i hope this helps her . welcome . we were all just sharing our thoughts about robin . lulu : why did n't she change ? spinelli : at least she 's here . lulu : i just hope she does n't make it worse . kate : sonny , would n't you rather talk about robin ? i mean , you two were so close . and with the arrest and arraignment , you 've barely had any time to grieve . sonny : you 're right . have i thanked you enough for being at the church ? it just was very important for me to pay my respects , you know , even though i - i was the last person patrick wanted to see . kate : i know that . sonny : i just wish that i was a - a better speaker , 'cause i wanted everybody to know how courageous robin was . can you imagine a girl in high school -- having to hold a person 's hand while he dies ? i do n't feel like i put that across -- what that meant for me . kate : you did . sonny : y - you have no idea how bad i screwed up , how far out of control i was last summer . and not -- and not only did i -- did i -- did i lose my friendship with robin -- but that i could -- that i could make people think that i 'm the kind of guy that would -- would cause an accident and kill a - a man and a little girl and run from it ? kate : you 're not . sonny : i do n't have many people on my side right now , and i do n't know where i would be if -- if -- if you were n't with me . i 'm not gon na lose you . sam : so , if you see carly , can you please call security and , um , maybe sit her down and try and talk some sense into her ? because she needs professional help . her attachment to my husband is just not normal . ewen : oh , normal 's overrated . sam : yes , doctor , i realize you think that we are all very unique and special , but her obsession with my husband is just , uh , out of touch with reality . ewen : whose ? sam : jason 's . he 's married . ewen : which , to you , means he has to sever all his friendships ? sam : no . ewen : just this one ? sam : no . not -- not sever . there 's just boundaries that you have to respect . ewen : and who sets these boundaries -- you ? your husband ? sam : well , we kind of both did . i mean , b - before we got married , we sat her down and we let her know that things had to change . she could n't just come barging in our life anymore . ewen : well , i take it she 's crossed the line ? sam : [ scoffs ] yes . i mean , she 's crossed several lines . it 's always about carly . i mean , she stakes her claim on my husband . it 's -- it 's like -- it 's -- i mean , i 'm the one that he 's married to , and she comes first , and i might as well just take a number . ewen : [ clears throat ] and your husband , what does -- what does he feel about this ? sam : does n't matter . carly does n't take `` no `` for an answer . ewen : is it possible that your husband 's boundaries are somehow different than yours ? sam : my husband is n't well , and he is sitting in a hospital room , and i am afraid if carly gets to him , she could kill him . carly : i - i get that sam is pregnant and -- and she 's hormonal and maybe a little insecure . i understand that . i 'm not trying to make this worse , okay ? jason : then m - maybe you can just back off a little and -- and let sam think that she 's the one in charge for -- carly : you want sam to make decisions for you ? jason : well , it 's not like she had a choice , carly . i was unconscious . carly : what about when you were n't ? i mean , do you want her making decisions for you then ? jason : w - where are -- where are you going with this ? carly : sam has n't been honest with you . spinelli : maxie needs to grieve in her own way . lulu : not if she does something she 'll regret it . excuse me . hey , um , matt and i saved you a seat . i think it would be good for you -- maxie : i - i need to say something . lulu : uh , father coates was about to start the service . matt : yeah , i - i think it 'd be best if you just had a seat . if you 'd like , take a moment to compose yourself . we 'll continue with the service . i 'll give you a chance to speak later . maxie : i - i have to say something . now . i 've had surgery , and yes , i have occasional constipation . maxie : i 'm sorry i 'm late . i almost did n't come , but then someone told me that i 'd hate myself forever if i did n't say goodbye . lulu : so far , so good . maxie : what no one understands is that i already hate myself for what i did to robin , and you 're all going to hate me , too . kate : i 'm not going anywhere . all right ? sonny : yeah . i - i just want you to know you can be honest with me about anything . kate : i know that . sonny : and if you want to tell me anything about the text -- kate : it was nothing . the text was nothing . sonny : you seeing -- you seeing another guy ? kate : no . of course not . sonny : then who is , uh , ewen keenan ? ewen : you think that carly 's connection to your husband is somehow going to cause her to turn violent ? sam : no . ewen : but you said she was going to kill him . sam : but telling him something . ewen : i 'm a big believer in the power of words , but that 's a stretch . sam : no , my -- my husband had a cerebral edema , and any upset or emotional stress could have caused a fatal seizure . ewen : no wonder you 're so protective . sam : see [ sighs ] the doctors were working on this special drug protocol , and -- something happened , something bad happened , and i did n't -- i did n't tell my husband when i knew he would have wanted to know . ewen : a lie of omission . sam : only because i wanted to save his life . jason : what do you mean , sam has n't been honest ? carly : there are some things she has n't told you . jason : uh , okay , like -- like what ? about my condition ? carly : no . jason : what ? carly : i do n't know . i do n't think she trusts you , per se . jason : okay , you know what ?

carly : robin . mac : you do n't have to do this . maxie : yes , i do . mac , please , just sit down . sit down , mac . i need to -- to say this . please . it 's my fault because i was with robin in the lab that night before the explosion . i needed her . it does n't matter why . th - the point is , robin was working , but i was too focused on myself and my stupid problems to notice , because that 's me -- selfish . [ voice breaking ] robin is -- was -- the most generous , patient , kindest person on the planet . and i wanted her to drop everything and focus on me . and it did n't matter that she was busy trying to save jason 's life . maxie : i wanted robin to come with me to a party . that was my big emergency -- a party . robin was busy saving a life , and when she turned me down , i got mad and i called her selfish . i wanted robin to defend me and to fix my problems , and i wanted her to pay attention to me instead of the person who really needed her . spinelli : okay , maxie , look , please stop , okay ? y - you 're being too hard on yourself . maxie : you do n't know , spinelli . you were n't there ! spinelli : i 'm sure dr. robin understood . however ill - considered , your demand for attention w - was momentary , not the total sum of your relationship . maxie : you 're wrong , spinelli . what happened that night is exactly who i am . kate : dr. keenan is my doctor . sonny : a - are you sick ? is that what your text -- kate : i 'm not sick . sonny , you 're making more of this than it is . i am sorry that i was n't here , that i texted you . i got busy and distracted . sonny : so , what does he do ? what 's his specialty ? kate : he 's a psychiatrist . sonny : you got a psychiatrist in chicago . kate : i need one here . sonny : oh . kate : i - i do n't want -- want to have to fly across to chicago every time i need to talk to someone about my problems . sonny : talk to someone about me because you 're not over me getting shot ? are you having second thoughts ? kate : no . sonny : then why are you so tense ? kate : because you make me nervous when you ask me all these questions ! sonny : i just never heard of this guy . where did you find him ? sam : carly wants to tell jason that robin is dead , and she does n't care what it 's gon na do to him , that it could possibly kill him . ewen : is he still in critical condition ? sam : well , i mean , he 's better , but i - i do n't want to do anything until his doctor tells me that he 's strong enough . and carly does n't want to wait . and here i go . i 'm unloading everything on you . i 'm sorry . ewen : come on . come on . what you 've been through with your husband -- his illness -- is terrifying . it 's understandable that you 're scared . but it does n't necessarily mean that he 's still at risk . sam : yeah , well , jason is n't the best judge of what he can handle . so , until i know he 's well enough , i 've got to make these decisions . and i have to find carly before it 's too late . jason : i do n't -- i do n't want to fight about robin . carly : i do n't , either . jason : okay , whatever you think of her , carly , she saved my life . carly : i know . and i will always be grateful . it 's really hard when someone gives you a gift and you can never repay them . i mean , you ca n't comfortably despise them , and you 're sitting there reconsidering all the horrible things you thought about them and all the assumptions you made , like that you were always right and they were always wrong , and then all of a sudden , you see the good that everyone -- jason : did -- did something happen to robin ? carly : i 'm so sorry . i 'm so sorry . jason : what ? what ? ! carly : robin 's dead . spinelli : okay , with all due respect to your pain , i - i 'm sure everyone here has -- has replayed those final moments that they -- they had with robin and -- and -- and regrets not telling her how much she meant to them . robin was an exceptional person a - and brilliant , caring , and unfailingly generous . and -- and i 'm sure everyone wishes that they made a point to thank her for her friendship . but it is a mistake to think that robin was unaware of your feelings or that she resented your final words . robin knew the best of you , maxie . that 's what she treasured about you . maxie : well , she should n't have , because i did n't deserve it . spinelli : i - i think robin would disagree . maxie : robin 's dead , spinelli ! she ca n't do anything else for anyone anymore because of me . i killed robin .Summarize.[/INST]spinelli tries to convince maxie to go to robin 's funeral . she refuses . robin 's family and friends gather to remember her . sonny says a few words and leaves because his presence makes patrick uncomfortable . luke reads a letter from robert in his absence . patrick breaks down in tears while he is trying to speak . maxie comes in at the last minute and says she would like to say something . she says she hates herself for what she did to robin and they are all going to hate her too . spinelli stands up and tells maxie that robin cherished the best in her and that he knows she did n't hold whatever she said in their final moments together against her . maxie says robin would disagree because she is dead because of her . she says she killed robin .</s> | 9,996 |

[ scene_break ] kevin : i mean , really -- a scrapbook of chelsea and adam 's kid and then claiming his outfit accidentally ended up in her purse ? [ sighs ] it 's not good . it 's not healthy . and that 's not me being judgmental , like she thinks . it 's me being concerned that even though she says she 's okay , she 's not . and i want to help , for her sake and for delia , who , by the way , can not be replaced by somebody else 's baby . alex : she needs time . kevin : of course she needs time -- time spent not obsessing on somebody else 's kid . and i want to help , like i said , but she dumped my ass . alex : all right , maybe a little justice over delia will help chloe get over this hurdle . kevin : yeah , about that -- it 's time that eyewitness pony up with some information . you ca n't just go all bad cop on him and convince him that way ? alex : do n't need to . christine was willing to make a deal , which means we 're just one step closer to catching the killer .

[ scene_break ] nick : all right . so , what 's this visit about ? victor : thanks , son . nick : sure . let 's just get it out there now . yes , i did kiss sharon on new year 's , but that 's it . do you remember when you used to be sharon 's biggest cheerleader -- her hero and savior ? victor : it might surprise you , but i did n't come here to talk about sharon , okay ? i actually came here to talk to you about having visited cassie 's grave . nick : yeah . it helps , does n't it ? victor : yeah . i still ca n't believe that she 's gone . and we 've lost others , too . one of the hardest things for a parent to deal with is to lose a child , you know ? nick : are you talking about delia ? victor : i 'm thinking about her and others -- cassie 's birthday ... and there 's summer 's connection to jack abbott . nick : dad , we did n't lose summer , all right ? she 's here and she 's healthy . we just have to share her now . victor : do you feel lucky ? nick : `` grateful `` is probably a better word . i am just grateful for every second that i get to spend with her . victor : you know ... [ sighs ] sometimes i wonder if it 's possible ... that feeling for one 's child sort of slips away . nick : who are we talking about now ? victor : i 'm talking about adam . [ scene_break ] adam : i 'm not dying , but things happen . life happens . slip and fall in the tub , a heart attack . and i do n't want it as some opportunity that my father takes to swoop in and take my son . avery : chelsea would never let that happen . adam : you have worked for the old man , avery . you were almost part of the family . you dodged a real bullet there . you know he can be a lethal s.o.b . and he 'll do whatever it takes to get connor . avery : okay . if you have n't mentioned guardianship to chelsea , you ca n't very well do it here and now . adam : i can . and i will . so , please , stop arguing with me and give me the papers . avery : okay . i 'm gon na remind you that before i was your attorney , i was your friend . you trusted me with your legal affairs , and you also trusted me with this . [ adam remembering ] adam : every single minute , i ca n't get away from it -- the guilt , the remorse . i 'm just so sorry . my name is victor adam newman jr . it is november 4 , 2013 . and i am confessing to the hit - and - run murder of delia abbott . [ back to present ] avery : adam , you said that it did n't matter , but the look on your face right now -- come on . attorney - client privilege -- you can tell me anything . more than that , i am your friend , so tell me what is on this recording . [ scene_break ] chelsea : you and kevin ? how do you go from `` he 's my hero `` to suddenly broken up ? chloe : he was awesome for a while , but then ... he was just hovering , you know ? and who wants someone who 's hovering all the time ? chelsea : he cared too much , so you dumped him ? chloe : it was n't really a dumping because we never really got back together -- not technically . chelsea : you were spending every second together , though . i mean , you told me that you needed him around to help you sleep . chloe : exactly . i mean , he 's hovering all the time , and i was being needy , and it just was n't good for either one of us . we were over a long time ago . the only reason why we got back together was because of delia . you know , when she was gone -- [ sighs ] it 's -- it 's just -- it 's done . it 's over . chelsea : i do n't believe you . chloe : [ sighs ] well , it 's the truth . chelsea : chloe , i do n't think it 's really over . i mean , kevin -- he knows you . he loves you . he wants what 's best for you . chloe : okay . well , then , if he knows me so well , then why was he pushing too hard and saying too much ? chelsea : well , that 's what people do . they mess up . they screw up . but then you work it out and you forgive each other , and then things are better than ever . chloe : every time you get all mushy about adam , a unicorn loses its horn . chelsea : just because you and kevin fell apart because of something stupid , it does not mean that you ca n't work it out . chloe : stop . i do n't want to focus on this right now , okay ? i just want to find the perfect outfit for our little man . [ scene_break ] alex : the d.a . 's willing to knock down your latest felony charge in exchange for information about the hit - and - run fatality . now , when we go in that room , do n't waste your time and especially not mine . just talk . ah , ah , ah , ah , ah , ah , ah . kevin : i want to be in there . alex : then become a cop . kevin : you do n't suck , chavez . alex : okay , george . make it good . who killed that little girl ? [ scene_break ] noah : mom , if you 're seeing cassie again -- sharon : i was . i - i - i was . but i think it was goodbye . it was the end of those visions . i mean , right now , today , i see her everywhere . she 's in my head and in my heart , but i do n't think i 'll be seeing her again . i - i do n't need to . i think i 'm finally -- just finally strong enough to let go of that crutch . noah : when you see her , you do n't -- it 's not a memory ? she 's ... sharon : it 's like she 's here . i have to say , it 's really wonderful to have her back . noah : what does she look like ? sharon : well , here . she looks ... let 's see . ah . ... like that . same outfit , but , you know , the woman she would be today . she would be so proud of you . noah : do you -- do you tell this to dad ? sharon : do i use cassie to get to him ? no . your father and i are very good friends -- no more , no less -- and that 's really wonderful . noah : well , you know , it ca n't just be dad . you have to get out there and find other friends . sharon : no , i know . you 're right . i do . but just think about everything it took for me to get where i am right now . so , i 'm pretty damn proud of myself . noah : you should be . sharon : thanks . anyway , right now i have got to go because i promised neil i would pick up some papers from jack . so , you want to walk me out ? noah : yeah . sharon : okay . [ scene_break ] jack : oh . so , we 're a couple now , huh ? hilary : it 's just ... if that picture makes it into the general public -- cane was n't the only one in those gc buzz photos . i made myself his drooling assistant . the world might think you 're my next victim . jack : i frankly do n't give a damn what the world thinks . i do n't think you should , either . hilary : maybe caring what people think is a step in the right direction . i never cared before . jack : you have paid for your sins . you do n't have to prove yourself anymore . hilary : i would n't say that . jack : is that why you gave to the delia project ? hilary : uh , how did you know about that ? jack : i sit on the board . hilary : that was supposed to be a private donation . jack : it is . it is private , and it 'll stay private . i just bring it up to say you were n't looking for acceptance . you were n't looking for kudos or credit . you did it out of the goodness of your heart , and that 's one of the reasons i 'm so impressed with you . you 'd have liked delia . she was a terrific little girl . hilary : well , i can see how much people loved her . i just wanted to help . i wish i could have done more . jack : well , i 'll say it one more time -- amen to that . [ scene_break ] alex : last time you sat in that chair , george , you claimed you saw the car and the driver . now , the d.a . 's willing to work on your case , but you got to give me something real now . george : it was dark , all right ? it was late . alex : do you think i 'm playing games here , george ? i tell the d.a . you 're useless , you 're back in your cell . george : look , i saw him , okay ? i was heading back into my place , heard the tires , saw the car stop . alex : uh - huh . george : driver looked around . alex : good . good . now tell me what he looked like . [ scene_break ] adam : what is on here does n't matter anymore . avery : last time , you said , `` everything 's changed . `` what 's `` everything `` ? adam , if you need help or protection -- adam : i need jack to be connor 's legal guardian . that 's it . avery : chelsea needs to sign the documents . otherwise , this is wasted paper . adam : she 'll sign the papers . avery : without discussing it ? adam : she 'll sign the papers . chelsea : papers ? [ chuckles ] adam , come on . today 's all about connor . nothing else matters . adam : these papers are to victor - proof the peanut -- make sure that my father never gets his hands on our son . chelsea : not if he wants to keep his hands . adam : i told you she 'd sign the papers . chelsea : now ? sign what ? adam , our guests are on the way . adam : one signature and our son is safe . chelsea : are you being serious ? what 's going on ? [ scene_break ] nick : you ca n't lose adam , dad . he 's always been a lost cause . i mean , he tried to frame you for murder how long ago ? it 's been one firestorm after another ever since . victor : i know . do you think it 's possible that you could ever lose faith or hope in one of your children ? nick : well , dad , none of my kids are sociopaths . adam is . look , you 're not buying this whole `` adam 's reformed `` thing , are you ? victor : his mother , hope , was such a wonderful woman . nick : she was . but just consider yourself lucky that adam has walked away from newman and you . i mean , it 's better and safer for everyone he keeps his distance . victor : i 'm just trying to do the best i can with those people that i -- that i love , part of my family . nick : you have some unusual ways of going about that . victor : considering where i come from , son , i think i 'm doing a pretty damn good job , you know ? nick : all right . well , adam has his own family now , so he 's not gon na mess with anyone for a while . maybe that 's what 's bothering you . is there something you want to tell me ? victor : sometimes things happen in life that you do n't expect , you know ? difficult to deal with . noah : grandpa , hi . victor : noah ! how are you , boy ? noah : good . victor : nice to see you . noah : what 's going on ? nick : uh , grandpa just came to check in . victor : just talking about family , son -- how important it is to ... take care of one another , you know , when things get tough . noah : uh - huh . victor : yep . noah : is this about mom ? [ scene_break ] sharon : sorry i 'm late . did i miss jack ? hilary : yeah . he has a family event , but he left those papers for neil . sharon : i wonder what the family event is . hmm . [ chuckles ] sorry . old habit . you know i used to be a part of jack 's family . hilary : yeah . it must have been a nice family to have . it 's obvious it 's his priority . sharon : yes , it is , and unlike the other town mogul , victor newman , jack is less ... hilary : ruthless ? mm - hmm . i was just telling him the same thing , and he complimented me , not on keeping on top of his schedule or doing his expense report . he was impressed that i donated to his niece 's memorial fund . sharon : well , delia was a great little girl , and every time i look at faith , i 'm reminded how lucky i am . i know what it 's like to lose a child and to need answers . hilary : it can drive you crazy not knowing . even if the answers hurt , they heal at the same time . sharon : well , everyone in this town loved delia , and i know everyone will breathe a sigh of relief when her killer is found and brought to justice . [ scene_break ] alex : so , you looked out the window , and it was a male ? george : definitely . alex : what else ? george : look , like i said , it was dark -- no streetlights . alex : it was a male . he looked out the window of a late - model s.u.v . you think the d.a . 's gon na cut you a deal for that ? george : not much of a deal yet . alex : listen -- are you trying to hardball us ? a little girl is dead , and if you refuse to help , people are gon na be very pissed off . george : all right , look -- his face seemed pretty thin . it looked like he had a slim build . alex : that does nothing for me . i need hair color , distinguishing marks . did he wear glasses ? give me something , george , or you 're back in your cell . george : look , i ca n't tell you what i did n't see , okay ? i 'm not gon na lie . alex : [ laughing ] what , because of your strong moral character ? last time , you told me you saw the license plate . so , unless you were blowing smoke -- wisconsin plates , started with the letter `` g. `` alex : and what -- you 're gon na give me more letters for a better deal ? george : look , that 's it . alex : oh . george : that 's all i saw . but i told you everything . my lawyer said that the d.a . -- alex : no , no , no , no , no , no , no , no , no . the deal happens when we say it happens . george : what about the reward ? alex : reward ? george : the million bucks for finding the little girl 's killer . alex : well , we have n't found him yet . so , you want what 's coming to you , right ? you better pray , george , that what you told us is enough to solve this . [ scene_break ] adam : one signature . that 's all . chelsea : nothing is gon na happen to either one of us between now and tomorrow , so why do n't we celebrate connor , we 'll go home , and we 'll discuss these papers ? adam : you practically threw my father out when he even started to make hints about wanting to see his grandson . chelsea : yeah , and i 'd do it again . adam : so , sign the papers . chelsea : that say what ? avery : they designate jack abbott as joint guardian with you should something happen to adam . chelsea : you want me to do this right now ? adam , our guests are gon na be here any second . chloe : hi ! chelsea : hi , guys ! chloe : hi ! [ smooches ] chelsea : hi , hi , hi . anita : hi , honey . [ both smooch ] chloe : are we ready to get this blessing started ? adam : actually , just one second . chelsea : it 's so important that you guys are here . thank you so much . connor 's godmother , godfather , and his grandma , who looks more like an aunt . anita : do n't you know it ? ! amen ! chloe : well , i would just like to note that the godmother arrived first . woot , woot ! [ laughter ] adam : actually , jack -- he serves a dual purpose today . he 's the godfather and the future legal guardian . chloe : excuse me ? chelsea : sorry . uh , excuse us for just one second . chloe : guardian ? chelsea : okay . i know you love connor . chloe : he 's supposed to be mine . my godson , i mean . all that stuff about me being in his life -- chelsea : you are . you always will be . this is adam just freaking out that in some alternate universe , victor would be able to get his hands on connor . chloe : and i was worried about the same thing , remember ? if you do n't want victor to be part of connor 's life , then you do n't marry his son . boom . done . jack : seems to be going over pretty well . adam : chloe is chloe . connor needs this to happen . jack : no second thoughts ? adam : none . you 're it , jack . you 're the one person who can keep victor from my son . anita : phew ! i was afraid that they were gon na have me step up and step in . you ca n't really get a date pushing a stroller -- unless they think you 're a fresh , young , hot , sexy single mother in the prime of life . adam : now 's the time , jack . i need this for my peace of mind and for my son 's sake . [ scene_break ] victor : we did not talk about your mom , okay ? i think your father knows best how to deal with his relationship with sharon . noah : well , yeah , they have a relationship . they 're friends . nick : its okay , bud . dad and i already talked about it , or at least we agreed to put it away , because it is a non - issue . victor : that 's right . [ chuckling ] yeah . right . having said all that , i just want you to know that i 'm proud of both of you . i do n't say that often enough , okay ? i think you 're two honest people who always try to rectify a situation if something goes wrong . i like that . you have a nice day . nick : thanks , dad . noah : thank you , grandpa . you do n't have to worry about these guys . victor : all right . noah : all right . victor : have a nice day . nick : you , too . noah : so , that was -- that was grandpa being heartfelt and sincere ... because ... nick : it could be about cassie 's birthday . or it could be about someone else altogether . [ scene_break ] hilary : you say justice will help everyone breathe easier , but losing a child -- what does justice for that even look like ? sharon : an arrest and a trial , a conviction . hilary : you must have more faith in the judicial system than i do . sharon : well , maybe a confession is what matters . that way no one has to go through a painful testimony , coroner reports . hilary : yeah , prison , definitely . how much time , you know ? like , could it ever be enough time ? sharon : well , what 's the alternative -- vigilante justice ? hilary : i got to admit , seems tempting at times . sharon : yeah , it does , but for the short term because then it becomes an eye for an eye , and then the war is on . hilary : when my mother died , my vision of justice was pure agony for neil winters -- complete devastation for his entire family . i wanted to smite the evildoers for generation upon generation , like some fairy - tale curse . but in the end , that 's all it was -- some fantasy in my head . i was n't getting justice because it was no one 's fault that my mother died . i was just trying to numb my own misery . sharon : but you came out of it . hilary : yeah . i came to my senses . but delia 's parents -- someone really did kill their daughter , and they really do deserve justice in this case . but since it ca n't take their pain away , how could it ever be real justice ? sharon : we lost cassie in a car accident , too . hilary : not like -- sharon : no , no . cassie was the one driving . but we did n't know that for a long time . and nicholas and i both wanted someone to blame . hilary : exactly . sharon : but ... you know , maybe there 's more to it than just the sentencing . maybe it 's the face that you need and name . it 's knowing who has taken your heart out of your chest and put it in a grave . there 's an enemy out there somewhere who has n't the nerve to face you . he 's lying . he 's hiding . he 's denying . he 's pretending that life just goes on . so , maybe that 's what part of the justice is . it 's knowing who has caused you that much pain and making sure that they can never hide again . [ scene_break ] alex : [ sighs heavily ] kevin : did you buy all that ? alex : you need to quit listening outside the door . kevin : well , then , you need to keep leaving it open . so , what do you think ? a guy with a thin face and a wisconsin license plate that starts with a `` g `` ? is that all ? because if he 's holding out -- alex : whoa , whoa , whoa , kev . look , george hawkins is n't the killer , okay ? you need to understand that . now , as much as you and me and everyone wants to put a fist through that guy 's face to make him talk , we ca n't . kevin : you thought about the fist - face thing , too ? okay . well , look , we have something to go on , right -- a place to start ? alex : oh , whoa , whoa . wait . `` we `` ? kevin : yes , `` we , `` because now -- now is when you need my skills . otherwise , delia 's killer stays free . alex : [ sighs ] kevin : she was my stepdaughter , alex . she was funny . she was feisty . she kept me on my toes . she was like a mini chloe . and it is not right that she 's gone . and if you knew how screwed up chloe was over this -- that she pretends that she 's okay , but she 's not , obviously . if she was , connor would just be this cute kid that she enjoyed spending time with , not the new center of her universe . alex : look , i know she dumped you . kevin : and i can handle that . but she can not handle losing her child and not knowing why , not knowing who . she ca n't handle the person getting away with it . so , we have this partial plate . let me do my thing . alex : well , then , stop talking and get to work . kevin : what ? alex : i informed the chief that you are no longer romantically involved with the victim 's mother . kevin : you told paul that chloe dumped me ? thanks . alex : mm - hmm , and he assigned you to the case . kevin : he -- when ? alex : before you got in . kevin : you -- and you did n't tell -- you let me go on about this ? alex : well , that 's just it . when you talk about endless love and devotion , the doves , and you 're so cute -- [ speaks gibberish ] now get to work . [ scene_break ] noah : so , what exactly is grandpa upset about ? it 's not cassie . it 's not mom . nick : she 's part of it . dad was talking about delia and summer . then we started talking about adam . noah : ahh . now , i got to say , it 's pretty warped how grandpa and adam just mess with each other and then keep on coming back for more . nick : well , maybe they finally had enough . but dad is definitely worried about him . and adam has been on his best behavior lately . noah : see , that 's why i think it 's probably about mom . dad , he would lose his mind if you two got back together . nick : it 's not an issue . or do you think it is ? noah : [ sighs ] you know , i talked to mom , and i think she 's in a pretty good place . she 's moving forward , not leaning on anybody . i 'm proud of her . nick : me , too . [ scene_break ] sharon : wow . mimosas . how decadent . shall we ? hilary : courtesy of new management . they 're trying to make up for my bathroom flooding . sharon : oh . you know what ? i know what it 's like to live here . it 's half a relief because you have fresh towels and linens and room service , and it 's half kind of awkward because you do n't really have a place you can call home . hilary : well , when did you live here ? sharon : oh , in and out of different break - ups . hilary : mm . including one with jack ? sharon : well , you know , jack 's a great guy . you know that because you work for him . but there was one time when he cut me off . but he was right . the choices i was making were wrong , but he and i are in a good place now , you know ? i 'm lucky i have him as my friend . hilary : do you ever wish it were more ? sharon : with jack ? no ! but ... that 's an easy thing to fall into , is n't it -- wanting back what you used to have ? it just rarely ever works out that way . hilary : do n't go chasing the past . jack said something today that i think is fitting . amen to that . [ scene_break ] adam : connor needs you , jack . jack : whatever you need , i 'm here for you . i mean , the location 's a little awkward , the timing , but if it gives you peace of mind , let 's get this done . adam : thank you , jack . jack : chelsea , this is a safety net . my being named is guardian is about protecting you and connor from victor , not about getting in your way . adam : it 's true , chelsea . thank you . avery : okay . uh , one more document -- legal name change for connor to connor adam newman . chelsea : your son ... your name . avery : jack , for your files . jack : thank you . avery : okay . i am off to file these immediately . you can really rest easy , adam . adam : thank you , avery . avery : yes . chelsea : thank you . well , now we can get back to the reason that we are all here -- connor and the blessing . adam : actually , one small announcement . i 'd like you all to know that chelsea has agreed to be my wife , and she and i and connor are gon na be a family , now and always . chloe : so , do i speak now , or do i wait for the ceremony ? kidding . not really . jack : adam , you pulled it off . congratulations . you have the world on a string . adam : thank you , jack . anita : you said he did n't mean it , but i knew he did ! chelsea : [ laughs ] anita : this is it , honey ! this is it , baby ! you 're complete . hey , did n't i tell you to get a big honking ring this time ? chelsea : mom ... anita : did n't i ? chelsea : ... i do n't need a ring . i have everything i could ever want . anita : ohh . [ scene_break ] nick : noah , at some point , you got to stop worrying about your mom and about me . noah : too late . conditioned at an early age . that said , she 's making it easy on me . and you -- nick : what did i just say ? noah : it 's cassie 's birthday , and you just said that you and grandpa were talking about summer . that 's stuff that can be upsetting for you . nick : every time i think about cassie , on her birthday or any other day , it 's always way more good than bad . i miss her so much , but ... i was lucky to have her in my life . everybody who knew her was . noah : but you do n't think that 's why grandpa came here and it 's not mom ? nick : i think it 's all mixed together . i mean , he was talking about delia abbott . i do n't know . i mean , you see him every day at the office . how 's he seem ? does he seem like his usual self ? noah : he 's victor newman . he 's always himself . nick : yeah , but something 's getting to him . and i think it has to do with adam . [ scene_break ] kevin : all right . what have we got ? alex : late - model black suv , wisconsin plates beginning with letter `` g. `` now , considering we 've been through a bunch of black suvs -- kevin : yes . `` g , `` though -- we have the `` g `` now . and we have me at a computer , so today is your lucky day , detective . we 're gon na find ourselves a killer .

[ next_on ] billy : maybe we should just leave this . kelly : and just ignore the elephant in the room ? for how long , billy ? kevin : if this new witness to the hit - and - run gave you accurate information , it 's gon na lead us right to delia 's killer . victor : i made you a proposal . i was waiting for your answer . it appears i got one . | sharon admits to noah that she saw a vision of cassie , but she assures him that it will be the last one because she is in a good place and does n't need cassie as a crutch . victor struggles to decide if he should tell the police that adam is delia 's killer . adam and chelsea sign papers to make jack connor 's co - guardian along with chelsea in case something happens to adam . adam and chelsea also sign papers to change connor 's name to connor adam newman . chelsea and adam have a blessing ceremony for connor . victor arrives after the ceremony is finished . | <s>[INST] jack : under new management -- a classic reinvented . hilary : you wo n't miss the old days ? jack : no . progress is about moving forward . devon 's been looking for a passion for a long time now . i 'm glad he finally found it . hilary : well , i 'm glad he convinced me to stay . did n't please cane and lily much , but devon talked me down . jack : well , he got two advisers in the process . where is jill ? i thought she 'd be here by now . she -- she 's the one that called this meeting . we 've got to reconvene on the victor issue . [ cell phone buzzes ] jack : hmm . hilary : is that her ? jack : yeah . jill will not be here . she was called out of town suddenly . [ scene_break ] noah : mom , you were talking to yourself . sharon : people do that . noah : you said that dad will never forgive you . what does he need to forgive you for ? [ scene_break ] nick : [ sighs ] victor : fond memories of new year 's eve ? it was nice . i guess sharon could n't wait long enough to saddle up to you at midnight . nick : if you 've come to hammer me again about sharon -- i 'll tell you what . instead of that , why do n't you sit down ? i 'll get you some coffee . we 'll talk about football or boxing or whatever . victor : that 's a hell of an idea , son . i 'd like that . nick : but you came here to talk about something , right ? i mean , like , what 's going on ? victor : you know me only too well , do n't you ? [ scene_break ] chloe : what , there 's no newman christening gown for the baby to swim in ? chelsea : it 's not a christening . it 's a blessing . and i was thinking something a little less ... lacy . chloe : well , maybe i should wear something lacy since i am the next most important person there , being the godmother and all . chelsea : this is true . yes , chloe . you will be in every single picture with the little man , unless , of course , you let kevin into one of the shots . chloe : hmm . well , he wo n't be there . we broke up . chelsea : how ? when ? why ? [ scene_break ] kevin : i mean , really -- a scrapbook of chelsea and adam 's kid and then claiming his outfit accidentally ended up in her purse ? [ sighs ] it 's not good . it 's not healthy . and that 's not me being judgmental , like she thinks . it 's me being concerned that even though she says she 's okay , she 's not . and i want to help , for her sake and for delia , who , by the way , can not be replaced by somebody else 's baby . alex : she needs time . kevin : of course she needs time -- time spent not obsessing on somebody else 's kid . and i want to help , like i said , but she dumped my ass . alex : all right , maybe a little justice over delia will help chloe get over this hurdle . kevin : yeah , about that -- it 's time that eyewitness pony up with some information . you ca n't just go all bad cop on him and convince him that way ? alex : do n't need to . christine was willing to make a deal , which means we 're just one step closer to catching the killer . [ scene_break ] avery : hi . this is where you want to sign legal documents -- in a church before your son 's blessing ? adam : jack is about to become connor 's legal guardian . might as well tie up the legal ends at the same time . avery : okay . well , i assume , since you had me draw up the papers , you 've discussed everything with chelsea . adam : she does n't want my father anywhere near the baby , and the best way to keep that from happening is to make sure that jack is connor 's legal guardian . avery : okay , just as a precaution , because chelsea would still be there for connor ? adam : exactly . this needs to be airtight . if something were to happen to me , i want to make sure that jack would have legal authority over my son -- ironclad . avery : adam , are you ill ? adam : no . avery : well , why the urgency in this ? why would n't you be here for connor ? where do you think you 'll be ? [ scene_break ] hilary : you look worried . jack : jill 's the one who called this meeting . what would have called her out of town so suddenly ? hilary : well , maybe she just did n't want to make nice with me -- a little too much too soon . jack : i know jill snarls a lot , but eventually , she 's gon na see you for who you are , not who you were . hilary : you worry me . powerful men -- they do n't stay that way by being kind and understanding . there 's only one path to power , and that is being ruthless . jack : been there , done that . bores me to death . besides , that particular path leads to victor newman , and who wants to go there ? hilary : yeah , i guess that 's true . being bitter and lonely gets old fast . jack : amen to that . woman : uh , may i ? the gcac brand is aspirational , and you 're a perfect example . jack : together ? okay . apparently , the world aspires to us . woman : closer . a little closer . [ camera shutter clicks ] woman : thank you . jack : any closer , i 'd be wearing your suit . hilary : [ laughs ] if anyone sees that photo , they 'll think that we are a couple . [ scene_break ] noah : mom , if you 're worried about dad forgiving you for something , maybe you should -- sharon : you know what ? yeah . sometimes i 'm worried . and that 's okay . you know , what i 'm not is panicky or agitated or crawling out of my skin , you know ? i have my job , thanks to neil and jack , and i have my meds , my therapy , although sometimes i do think about stopping . noah : why would you stop therapy , mom ? no . sharon : reliving the last few years over and over again can be draining . you know , adam , victor , newman enterprises , and the first few months of faith 's life , of course , cassie . i just want to live my life for what it is now . noah : and where does dad and forgiveness fit in all this ? sharon : well ... i promise i wo n't lean on him , but sometimes i do . and i tell him i 'm fine , but sometimes i worry . so , what if , somehow , one day , i were not fine ? then i would be letting him down , and you and everyone who had faith in me . noah : we still have faith in you , mom , just not when you were talking -- were you talking to cassie ? sharon : i told you i 'm on my meds . noah : on or off , were you talking to her ? sharon : yeah . i was . [ scene_break ] nick : all right . so , what 's this visit about ? victor : thanks , son . nick : sure . let 's just get it out there now . yes , i did kiss sharon on new year 's , but that 's it . do you remember when you used to be sharon 's biggest cheerleader -- her hero and savior ? victor : it might surprise you , but i did n't come here to talk about sharon , okay ? i actually came here to talk to you about having visited cassie 's grave . nick : yeah . it helps , does n't it ? victor : yeah . i still ca n't believe that she 's gone . and we 've lost others , too . one of the hardest things for a parent to deal with is to lose a child , you know ? nick : are you talking about delia ? victor : i 'm thinking about her and others -- cassie 's birthday ... and there 's summer 's connection to jack abbott . nick : dad , we did n't lose summer , all right ? she 's here and she 's healthy . we just have to share her now . victor : do you feel lucky ? nick : `` grateful `` is probably a better word . i am just grateful for every second that i get to spend with her . victor : you know ... [ sighs ] sometimes i wonder if it 's possible ... that feeling for one 's child sort of slips away . nick : who are we talking about now ? victor : i 'm talking about adam . [ scene_break ] adam : i 'm not dying , but things happen . life happens . slip and fall in the tub , a heart attack . and i do n't want it as some opportunity that my father takes to swoop in and take my son . avery : chelsea would never let that happen . adam : you have worked for the old man , avery . you were almost part of the family . you dodged a real bullet there . you know he can be a lethal s.o.b . and he 'll do whatever it takes to get connor . avery : okay . if you have n't mentioned guardianship to chelsea , you ca n't very well do it here and now . adam : i can . and i will . so , please , stop arguing with me and give me the papers . avery : okay . i 'm gon na remind you that before i was your attorney , i was your friend . you trusted me with your legal affairs , and you also trusted me with this . [ adam remembering ] adam : every single minute , i ca n't get away from it -- the guilt , the remorse . i 'm just so sorry . my name is victor adam newman jr . it is november 4 , 2013 . and i am confessing to the hit - and - run murder of delia abbott . [ back to present ] avery : adam , you said that it did n't matter , but the look on your face right now -- come on . attorney - client privilege -- you can tell me anything . more than that , i am your friend , so tell me what is on this recording . [ scene_break ] chelsea : you and kevin ? how do you go from `` he 's my hero `` to suddenly broken up ? chloe : he was awesome for a while , but then ... he was just hovering , you know ? and who wants someone who 's hovering all the time ? chelsea : he cared too much , so you dumped him ? chloe : it was n't really a dumping because we never really got back together -- not technically . chelsea : you were spending every second together , though . i mean , you told me that you needed him around to help you sleep . chloe : exactly . i mean , he 's hovering all the time , and i was being needy , and it just was n't good for either one of us . we were over a long time ago . the only reason why we got back together was because of delia . you know , when she was gone -- [ sighs ] it 's -- it 's just -- it 's done . it 's over . chelsea : i do n't believe you . chloe : [ sighs ] well , it 's the truth . chelsea : chloe , i do n't think it 's really over . i mean , kevin -- he knows you . he loves you . he wants what 's best for you . chloe : okay . well , then , if he knows me so well , then why was he pushing too hard and saying too much ? chelsea : well , that 's what people do . they mess up . they screw up . but then you work it out and you forgive each other , and then things are better than ever . chloe : every time you get all mushy about adam , a unicorn loses its horn . chelsea : just because you and kevin fell apart because of something stupid , it does not mean that you ca n't work it out . chloe : stop . i do n't want to focus on this right now , okay ? i just want to find the perfect outfit for our little man . [ scene_break ] alex : the d.a . 's willing to knock down your latest felony charge in exchange for information about the hit - and - run fatality . now , when we go in that room , do n't waste your time and especially not mine . just talk . ah , ah , ah , ah , ah , ah , ah . kevin : i want to be in there . alex : then become a cop . kevin : you do n't suck , chavez . alex : okay , george . make it good . who killed that little girl ? [ scene_break ] noah : mom , if you 're seeing cassie again -- sharon : i was . i - i - i was . but i think it was goodbye . it was the end of those visions . i mean , right now , today , i see her everywhere . she 's in my head and in my heart , but i do n't think i 'll be seeing her again . i - i do n't need to . i think i 'm finally -- just finally strong enough to let go of that crutch . noah : when you see her , you do n't -- it 's not a memory ? she 's ... sharon : it 's like she 's here . i have to say , it 's really wonderful to have her back . noah : what does she look like ? sharon : well , here . she looks ... let 's see . ah . ... like that . same outfit , but , you know , the woman she would be today . she would be so proud of you . noah : do you -- do you tell this to dad ? sharon : do i use cassie to get to him ? no . your father and i are very good friends -- no more , no less -- and that 's really wonderful . noah : well , you know , it ca n't just be dad . you have to get out there and find other friends . sharon : no , i know . you 're right . i do . but just think about everything it took for me to get where i am right now . so , i 'm pretty damn proud of myself . noah : you should be . sharon : thanks . anyway , right now i have got to go because i promised neil i would pick up some papers from jack . so , you want to walk me out ? noah : yeah . sharon : okay . [ scene_break ] jack : oh . so , we 're a couple now , huh ? hilary : it 's just ... if that picture makes it into the general public -- cane was n't the only one in those gc buzz photos . i made myself his drooling assistant . the world might think you 're my next victim . jack : i frankly do n't give a damn what the world thinks . i do n't think you should , either . hilary : maybe caring what people think is a step in the right direction . i never cared before . jack : you have paid for your sins . you do n't have to prove yourself anymore . hilary : i would n't say that . jack : is that why you gave to the delia project ? hilary : uh , how did you know about that ? jack : i sit on the board . hilary : that was supposed to be a private donation . jack : it is . it is private , and it 'll stay private . i just bring it up to say you were n't looking for acceptance . you were n't looking for kudos or credit . you did it out of the goodness of your heart , and that 's one of the reasons i 'm so impressed with you . you 'd have liked delia . she was a terrific little girl . hilary : well , i can see how much people loved her . i just wanted to help . i wish i could have done more . jack : well , i 'll say it one more time -- amen to that . [ scene_break ] alex : last time you sat in that chair , george , you claimed you saw the car and the driver . now , the d.a . 's willing to work on your case , but you got to give me something real now . george : it was dark , all right ? it was late . alex : do you think i 'm playing games here , george ? i tell the d.a . you 're useless , you 're back in your cell . george : look , i saw him , okay ? i was heading back into my place , heard the tires , saw the car stop . alex : uh - huh . george : driver looked around . alex : good . good . now tell me what he looked like . [ scene_break ] adam : what is on here does n't matter anymore . avery : last time , you said , `` everything 's changed . `` what 's `` everything `` ? adam , if you need help or protection -- adam : i need jack to be connor 's legal guardian . that 's it . avery : chelsea needs to sign the documents . otherwise , this is wasted paper . adam : she 'll sign the papers . avery : without discussing it ? adam : she 'll sign the papers . chelsea : papers ? [ chuckles ] adam , come on . today 's all about connor . nothing else matters . adam : these papers are to victor - proof the peanut -- make sure that my father never gets his hands on our son . chelsea : not if he wants to keep his hands . adam : i told you she 'd sign the papers . chelsea : now ? sign what ? adam , our guests are on the way . adam : one signature and our son is safe . chelsea : are you being serious ? what 's going on ? [ scene_break ] nick : you ca n't lose adam , dad . he 's always been a lost cause . i mean , he tried to frame you for murder how long ago ? it 's been one firestorm after another ever since . victor : i know . do you think it 's possible that you could ever lose faith or hope in one of your children ? nick : well , dad , none of my kids are sociopaths . adam is . look , you 're not buying this whole `` adam 's reformed `` thing , are you ? victor : his mother , hope , was such a wonderful woman . nick : she was . but just consider yourself lucky that adam has walked away from newman and you . i mean , it 's better and safer for everyone he keeps his distance . victor : i 'm just trying to do the best i can with those people that i -- that i love , part of my family . nick : you have some unusual ways of going about that . victor : considering where i come from , son , i think i 'm doing a pretty damn good job , you know ? nick : all right . well , adam has his own family now , so he 's not gon na mess with anyone for a while . maybe that 's what 's bothering you . is there something you want to tell me ? victor : sometimes things happen in life that you do n't expect , you know ? difficult to deal with . noah : grandpa , hi . victor : noah ! how are you , boy ? noah : good . victor : nice to see you . noah : what 's going on ? nick : uh , grandpa just came to check in . victor : just talking about family , son -- how important it is to ... take care of one another , you know , when things get tough . noah : uh - huh . victor : yep . noah : is this about mom ? [ scene_break ] sharon : sorry i 'm late . did i miss jack ? hilary : yeah . he has a family event , but he left those papers for neil . sharon : i wonder what the family event is . hmm . [ chuckles ] sorry . old habit . you know i used to be a part of jack 's family . hilary : yeah . it must have been a nice family to have . it 's obvious it 's his priority . sharon : yes , it is , and unlike the other town mogul , victor newman , jack is less ... hilary : ruthless ? mm - hmm . i was just telling him the same thing , and he complimented me , not on keeping on top of his schedule or doing his expense report . he was impressed that i donated to his niece 's memorial fund . sharon : well , delia was a great little girl , and every time i look at faith , i 'm reminded how lucky i am . i know what it 's like to lose a child and to need answers . hilary : it can drive you crazy not knowing . even if the answers hurt , they heal at the same time . sharon : well , everyone in this town loved delia , and i know everyone will breathe a sigh of relief when her killer is found and brought to justice . [ scene_break ] alex : so , you looked out the window , and it was a male ? george : definitely . alex : what else ? george : look , like i said , it was dark -- no streetlights . alex : it was a male . he looked out the window of a late - model s.u.v . you think the d.a . 's gon na cut you a deal for that ? george : not much of a deal yet . alex : listen -- are you trying to hardball us ? a little girl is dead , and if you refuse to help , people are gon na be very pissed off . george : all right , look -- his face seemed pretty thin . it looked like he had a slim build . alex : that does nothing for me . i need hair color , distinguishing marks . did he wear glasses ? give me something , george , or you 're back in your cell . george : look , i ca n't tell you what i did n't see , okay ? i 'm not gon na lie . alex : [ laughing ] what , because of your strong moral character ? last time , you told me you saw the license plate . so , unless you were blowing smoke -- wisconsin plates , started with the letter `` g. `` alex : and what -- you 're gon na give me more letters for a better deal ? george : look , that 's it . alex : oh . george : that 's all i saw . but i told you everything . my lawyer said that the d.a . -- alex : no , no , no , no , no , no , no , no , no . the deal happens when we say it happens . george : what about the reward ? alex : reward ? george : the million bucks for finding the little girl 's killer . alex : well , we have n't found him yet . so , you want what 's coming to you , right ? you better pray , george , that what you told us is enough to solve this . [ scene_break ] adam : one signature . that 's all . chelsea : nothing is gon na happen to either one of us between now and tomorrow , so why do n't we celebrate connor , we 'll go home , and we 'll discuss these papers ? adam : you practically threw my father out when he even started to make hints about wanting to see his grandson . chelsea : yeah , and i 'd do it again . adam : so , sign the papers . chelsea : that say what ? avery : they designate jack abbott as joint guardian with you should something happen to adam . chelsea : you want me to do this right now ? adam , our guests are gon na be here any second . chloe : hi ! chelsea : hi , guys ! chloe : hi ! [ smooches ] chelsea : hi , hi , hi . anita : hi , honey . [ both smooch ] chloe : are we ready to get this blessing started ? adam : actually , just one second . chelsea : it 's so important that you guys are here . thank you so much . connor 's godmother , godfather , and his grandma , who looks more like an aunt . anita : do n't you know it ? ! amen ! chloe : well , i would just like to note that the godmother arrived first . woot , woot ! [ laughter ] adam : actually , jack -- he serves a dual purpose today . he 's the godfather and the future legal guardian . chloe : excuse me ? chelsea : sorry . uh , excuse us for just one second . chloe : guardian ? chelsea : okay . i know you love connor . chloe : he 's supposed to be mine . my godson , i mean . all that stuff about me being in his life -- chelsea : you are . you always will be . this is adam just freaking out that in some alternate universe , victor would be able to get his hands on connor . chloe : and i was worried about the same thing , remember ? if you do n't want victor to be part of connor 's life , then you do n't marry his son . boom . done . jack : seems to be going over pretty well . adam : chloe is chloe . connor needs this to happen . jack : no second thoughts ? adam : none . you 're it , jack . you 're the one person who can keep victor from my son . anita : phew ! i was afraid that they were gon na have me step up and step in . you ca n't really get a date pushing a stroller -- unless they think you 're a fresh , young , hot , sexy single mother in the prime of life . adam : now 's the time , jack . i need this for my peace of mind and for my son 's sake . [ scene_break ] victor : we did not talk about your mom , okay ? i think your father knows best how to deal with his relationship with sharon . noah : well , yeah , they have a relationship . they 're friends . nick : its okay , bud . dad and i already talked about it , or at least we agreed to put it away , because it is a non - issue . victor : that 's right . [ chuckling ] yeah . right . having said all that , i just want you to know that i 'm proud of both of you . i do n't say that often enough , okay ? i think you 're two honest people who always try to rectify a situation if something goes wrong . i like that . you have a nice day . nick : thanks , dad . noah : thank you , grandpa . you do n't have to worry about these guys . victor : all right . noah : all right . victor : have a nice day . nick : you , too . noah : so , that was -- that was grandpa being heartfelt and sincere ... because ... nick : it could be about cassie 's birthday . or it could be about someone else altogether . [ scene_break ] hilary : you say justice will help everyone breathe easier , but losing a child -- what does justice for that even look like ? sharon : an arrest and a trial , a conviction . hilary : you must have more faith in the judicial system than i do . sharon : well , maybe a confession is what matters . that way no one has to go through a painful testimony , coroner reports . hilary : yeah , prison , definitely . how much time , you know ? like , could it ever be enough time ? sharon : well , what 's the alternative -- vigilante justice ? hilary : i got to admit , seems tempting at times . sharon : yeah , it does , but for the short term because then it becomes an eye for an eye , and then the war is on . hilary : when my mother died , my vision of justice was pure agony for neil winters -- complete devastation for his entire family . i wanted to smite the evildoers for generation upon generation , like some fairy - tale curse . but in the end , that 's all it was -- some fantasy in my head . i was n't getting justice because it was no one 's fault that my mother died . i was just trying to numb my own misery . sharon : but you came out of it . hilary : yeah . i came to my senses . but delia 's parents -- someone really did kill their daughter , and they really do deserve justice in this case . but since it ca n't take their pain away , how could it ever be real justice ? sharon : we lost cassie in a car accident , too . hilary : not like -- sharon : no , no . cassie was the one driving . but we did n't know that for a long time . and nicholas and i both wanted someone to blame . hilary : exactly . sharon : but ... you know , maybe there 's more to it than just the sentencing . maybe it 's the face that you need and name . it 's knowing who has taken your heart out of your chest and put it in a grave . there 's an enemy out there somewhere who has n't the nerve to face you . he 's lying . he 's hiding . he 's denying . he 's pretending that life just goes on . so , maybe that 's what part of the justice is . it 's knowing who has caused you that much pain and making sure that they can never hide again . [ scene_break ] alex : [ sighs heavily ] kevin : did you buy all that ? alex : you need to quit listening outside the door . kevin : well , then , you need to keep leaving it open . so , what do you think ? a guy with a thin face and a wisconsin license plate that starts with a `` g `` ? is that all ? because if he 's holding out -- alex : whoa , whoa , whoa , kev . look , george hawkins is n't the killer , okay ? you need to understand that . now , as much as you and me and everyone wants to put a fist through that guy 's face to make him talk , we ca n't . kevin : you thought about the fist - face thing , too ? okay . well , look , we have something to go on , right -- a place to start ? alex : oh , whoa , whoa . wait . `` we `` ? kevin : yes , `` we , `` because now -- now is when you need my skills . otherwise , delia 's killer stays free . alex : [ sighs ] kevin : she was my stepdaughter , alex . she was funny . she was feisty . she kept me on my toes . she was like a mini chloe . and it is not right that she 's gone . and if you knew how screwed up chloe was over this -- that she pretends that she 's okay , but she 's not , obviously . if she was , connor would just be this cute kid that she enjoyed spending time with , not the new center of her universe . alex : look , i know she dumped you . kevin : and i can handle that . but she can not handle losing her child and not knowing why , not knowing who . she ca n't handle the person getting away with it . so , we have this partial plate . let me do my thing . alex : well , then , stop talking and get to work . kevin : what ? alex : i informed the chief that you are no longer romantically involved with the victim 's mother . kevin : you told paul that chloe dumped me ? thanks . alex : mm - hmm , and he assigned you to the case . kevin : he -- when ? alex : before you got in . kevin : you -- and you did n't tell -- you let me go on about this ? alex : well , that 's just it . when you talk about endless love and devotion , the doves , and you 're so cute -- [ speaks gibberish ] now get to work . [ scene_break ] noah : so , what exactly is grandpa upset about ? it 's not cassie . it 's not mom . nick : she 's part of it . dad was talking about delia and summer . then we started talking about adam . noah : ahh . now , i got to say , it 's pretty warped how grandpa and adam just mess with each other and then keep on coming back for more . nick : well , maybe they finally had enough . but dad is definitely worried about him . and adam has been on his best behavior lately . noah : see , that 's why i think it 's probably about mom . dad , he would lose his mind if you two got back together . nick : it 's not an issue . or do you think it is ? noah : [ sighs ] you know , i talked to mom , and i think she 's in a pretty good place . she 's moving forward , not leaning on anybody . i 'm proud of her . nick : me , too . [ scene_break ] sharon : wow . mimosas . how decadent . shall we ? hilary : courtesy of new management . they 're trying to make up for my bathroom flooding . sharon : oh . you know what ? i know what it 's like to live here . it 's half a relief because you have fresh towels and linens and room service , and it 's half kind of awkward because you do n't really have a place you can call home . hilary : well , when did you live here ? sharon : oh , in and out of different break - ups . hilary : mm . including one with jack ? sharon : well , you know , jack 's a great guy . you know that because you work for him . but there was one time when he cut me off . but he was right . the choices i was making were wrong , but he and i are in a good place now , you know ? i 'm lucky i have him as my friend . hilary : do you ever wish it were more ? sharon : with jack ? no ! but ... that 's an easy thing to fall into , is n't it -- wanting back what you used to have ? it just rarely ever works out that way . hilary : do n't go chasing the past . jack said something today that i think is fitting . amen to that . [ scene_break ] adam : connor needs you , jack . jack : whatever you need , i 'm here for you . i mean , the location 's a little awkward , the timing , but if it gives you peace of mind , let 's get this done . adam : thank you , jack . jack : chelsea , this is a safety net . my being named is guardian is about protecting you and connor from victor , not about getting in your way . adam : it 's true , chelsea . thank you . avery : okay . uh , one more document -- legal name change for connor to connor adam newman . chelsea : your son ... your name . avery : jack , for your files . jack : thank you . avery : okay . i am off to file these immediately . you can really rest easy , adam . adam : thank you , avery . avery : yes . chelsea : thank you . well , now we can get back to the reason that we are all here -- connor and the blessing . adam : actually , one small announcement . i 'd like you all to know that chelsea has agreed to be my wife , and she and i and connor are gon na be a family , now and always . chloe : so , do i speak now , or do i wait for the ceremony ? kidding . not really . jack : adam , you pulled it off . congratulations . you have the world on a string . adam : thank you , jack . anita : you said he did n't mean it , but i knew he did ! chelsea : [ laughs ] anita : this is it , honey ! this is it , baby ! you 're complete . hey , did n't i tell you to get a big honking ring this time ? chelsea : mom ... anita : did n't i ? chelsea : ... i do n't need a ring . i have everything i could ever want . anita : ohh . [ scene_break ] nick : noah , at some point , you got to stop worrying about your mom and about me . noah : too late . conditioned at an early age . that said , she 's making it easy on me . and you -- nick : what did i just say ? noah : it 's cassie 's birthday , and you just said that you and grandpa were talking about summer . that 's stuff that can be upsetting for you . nick : every time i think about cassie , on her birthday or any other day , it 's always way more good than bad . i miss her so much , but ... i was lucky to have her in my life . everybody who knew her was . noah : but you do n't think that 's why grandpa came here and it 's not mom ? nick : i think it 's all mixed together . i mean , he was talking about delia abbott . i do n't know . i mean , you see him every day at the office . how 's he seem ? does he seem like his usual self ? noah : he 's victor newman . he 's always himself . nick : yeah , but something 's getting to him . and i think it has to do with adam .

[ dramatic music ] kate : you would really do that ? you 'd take everything from me , after all of the things you have taken already ? deimos : what the hell are you talking about ? kate : you know exactly what i 'm talking about . were going to have a future together , so i put things aside . i even put aside my fears of getting involved with another man because of what you led me to believe , you son of a bitch . deimos : oh , kate . we both made mistakes . now , i suggest you do n't make another one . philip , what are you talking about ? philip : do n't worry , i have n't been drinking . here 's the thing . chloe : oh , good . philip : i -- i told you how i got my hands on this record label ? chloe : yeah ? philip : well , i got to admit , i 've had a hell of a time getting the thing up and running . hard to sign singers and bands unless i already have names on the label that they recognize . so having you walk back into my life was a godsend . chloe : really ? all i did was help you sober up . philip : yes , you did , but you also told me that you were having a hard time getting nightclub gigs . chloe , you are definitely label material . how about we do a record ? let the whole world know that you 're back , talented as ever ? john : yeah , looking forward to hearing from you . just make it soon , ronnie . paul : i thought you said he could get in trouble by helping us . john : did him a lot of favors in the isa . he owes me . paul : so you told him to contact all of his contacts and have his contacts contact all their contacts . talk about telling a guy what to do . john : that 's how you get it done , kid . tuck it away for future reference . paul : i will . listen , i -- i hate to say this , but is there some sort of rule of thumb , like if you do n't find tate before the end of the day ... [ dramatic music ] john : the only rule that i go by is : you never give up . now , call these guys . use my name . do n't let 'em beg off . paul : got it . john : trust me , kid . we 're gon na find him . brady : i 'm not defending summer . theresa : yeah , sure , you are . brady : no , i 'm not . theresa : yes , you are , brady . it 's what you do . belle : theresa , let 's just try to calm -- theresa : you know what ? she conned him out of $ 50,000 . did he tell you that ? brady : she -- she gave it back . theresa : [ scoffs ] oh , so that makes her a saint ? brady : theresa , let -- let -- no , she 's not a saint . listen to me . but there 's nothing that she 's done to indicate that she could kidnap a child . we do n't have any proof . we do n't have a ransom . theresa : what ? she is not ... brady : we do n't have anything like that . theresa : after a ransom , brady . she 's after revenge . why do n't you understand that ? we told her to leave town . you told her you did n't love her , and so now she paid us back belle : okay , you know what ? i should probably go . brady : belle , i do n't -- i do n't want you to go . i want you -- i want you to tell me , do you think summer could theresa : will you please stop trying to find someone else to stick up for that horrible woman ? look , she has our son , she dario : running this place will just left behind ? nicole : hmm , and what did he dario : shady stuff . nowhere near legal . nicole : all right , well , is he still ? dario : he says he is n't . whatever , you know . he -- he comes back to town , he acts all humble , and he completely fools my brother , my mother , my sister -- nicole : but not you . i get it . can i just ask you one question , though ? would it kill you to take his word for it , at least on a trial basis ? everyone deserves a second chance . dario : [ chuckles ] you 're talking about deimos . roman : uh , let me talk to you later . [ dramatic music ] deimos : from the expression on your face , commissioner , i gather you 're not accustomed to seeing people return from the dead . roman : not as a rule , no . kate said nicole walker tried to kill you . pushed you into salem river . is that true ? deimos : everything i have to say here today will be the truth , the whole truth and nothing but . deimos : so , commissioner , i understand that kate showed you a video of some of the argument that nicole and i had at the river . roman : she did . got it on file . deimos : well , i 'm here to assure you that nicole did not push me into the river , nor did she harm me in any way . roman : okay . um , who did ? deimos : no one . it was an accident . you see , i had been drinking heavily that night , and i was upset , stumbling about . and fell . roman : kate , you swore nicole pushed this man in the river . deimos : right , but she was very confused . it did happen very quickly , and i 'm sure that kate is also very sorry that she made such an accusation . kate : yes , i 'm very sorry . roman : mm - hmm . okay , um ... so where have you been all this time , mr. kiriakis ? deimos : once i , i contacted from a while back , who h commissioner , i 'm fine . it 's all in the past . we can all move forward now . i mean , you did marry kate like she claimed , right ? deimos : yes , i did ... we 've agreed to annul the marriage and go our separate ways . roman : [ snaps fingers ] just like that ? kate : well , it was rash , eloping to vegas . it was fun and romantic at the time , but -- deimos : right , and in the sober light of day , we both realized that we prefer being single . roman : sorry it did n't work out for you two . kate : so am i . roman : well , okay , then . hell , case closed , i guess . thank you for coming in . deimos : my pleasure , commissioner . i 'm glad i could clear things up for you . no need wasting any more of the taxpayers ' dollars on this nonsense . roman : so long as we got to the truth . deimos : that we did . chloe : philip , this is really sweet . i mean , it 's such a morale booster , but i 've never worked as a recording artist . philip : well , then it 's time . chloe : again , i 'm flattered , but i do n't know . working long hours in a studio , touring , publicity trips -- i do n't think that 's exactly the life for a mom of an eight - year - old son . philip : what if we make it all revolve around parker , so you 'd never have to be away from him ? chloe : wow , okay , hard sell . okay , let 's get real for a second here . i mean , you have n't heard me sing for years . for all you know , i 've lost it . philip : let 's find out . nicole : maybe we should n't talk about deimos anymore . obviously , he gets to you . dario : no , nicole , he obviously gets to you , and i do n't know why you wo n't admit it . eduardo : here we are . nicole : oh , thank you , mr. hernandez , but i -- i ca n't . eduardo : eduardo , please . nicole : eduardo . eduardo : yeah . nicole : but you two should really celebrate by yourselves . family is important . dario : uh - uh , nicole , you are not bailing on me now . you -- you stay right there . eduardo : yeah , please do . any friend of my son 's is always dario : besides , dad here is gon na want to get to know you . dario : nicole used redecorate the place , give it oh . nicole : okay , please , do not put your father on the spot . everything in my life is up in the air right now . eduardo : well , if you 're interested , just say the word . dario has faith in you , obviously , and he 's in charge . nicole : thank you . i appreciate the confidence . eduardo : you 're welcome .

[ soft rock music ] belle : come on , theresa . how is this brady 's fault ? theresa : because he 's the one who brought summer to salem . he could n't get enough of her in california . no , so he had to bring her home . belle : that 's not the way maggie explained -- theresa : oh , and he just loved the way she fell in love with him , and you know , no matter what kind of crap she pulled , he kept defending her over and over again , telling me not to be mean to her because sweet little summer was so , so sad and she tried to kill herself -- brady : stop it -- stop it . theresa : you know what ? brady : that is not -- theresa : he was still -- still recovering from his heart transplant when he went into the ocean after her . did you know that ? he could have died . [ crying ] [ laughing ] and oh , man . you know , summer , waiting in the wings for brady to fall in love with her . belle : hey , but that did n't happen . brady : no , it -- it did n't happen . [ keys clattering ] belle : because he loves you . theresa : well , she paid him back by stealing our son . belle : okay , hey , come on . let 's just all take a breath here , okay ? just take a breath . theresa : [ sobbing ] [ knocking at door ] theresa : do n't touch me .

[ dramatic music ] convinced that summer townsend took their son , and god help anyone who tries to convince her otherwise . shawn : thanks . belle : but it is kind of understandable , you know ? that fear . shawn : yeah , she 's terrified . if you 're not feeling up to it , i mean , you could probably ask your mom , and she could stay with theresa . belle : oh , no , i 'm fine . i just hope they find tate soon . shawn : look , something 's gon na break . belle : hey , how 's she doing ? brady : i managed to get her to lie down . i 'm -- i 'm sorry she was -- shawn : believe me , if anybody knows what this feels like , it 's us . so belle says that theresa said she 's 100 % positive that summer townsend 's behavior shawn : but you do now ? brady : yeah , she did , but she was n't wrong , belle . she conned me . [ dramatic music ] brady : and the last time i had it out with her , i told her i did n't want her in my life anymore , and she was more than angry with me . she was ... the back door 's always locked . i mean , i do n't understand how she could get in the kitchen and slip a drug into theresa 's drink . shawn : look , she 's a con artist . i 'm sure that she can find a way . brady : can you -- can you stay here for a little while ? i -- i -- there 's something i have to do . belle : yeah , not a problem . brady : thank you . belle : yeah . shawn : take care . i should probably go too . belle : okay . shawn : are you sure you 're okay ? belle : i 'm good . shawn : all right . belle : good luck .

[ snaps fingers ] she shut down . why is that ? ben : maybe she did n't want to give you the chance to hurt her again . rafe : no ? kate : i 'm trying to help you , but personnel is not my area . clyde : well , i think you 're being modest , kate . i 'm sure you were paying close attention when you were married to stefano dimera . kate : what about stefano , clyde ? clyde : not the man himself -- his associates . i 'm sure you could point me to some discreet professionals that could help me out . kate : and what would you need these discreet professionals to do exactly ? clyde : just a little work off the books . kate : that 's not very specific . clyde : we do n't need to get bogged down with specifics , kate . kate : yeah , well , how do you expect me to help you if i do n't know what you want ? clyde : distribution . it would help if some of them had good people skills , you know , knew how to manage a crew . you understand ? i knew you would , kate . abigail : jj says that he 's taking a walk and not to worry . do we believe that ? jennifer : we have to . he knows better than to do something stupid . abigail : i bet you said the same thing about me too . jennifer : honey , do n't , okay ? that does n't help . abigail : it 's like it 's all back in my face again . i 'd actually thought i was starting to see daylight , you know , like the worst was over and that my life was gon na get better . jennifer : this is not going to change that . no . abigail : of course it is , mom . come on . you have a career in p.r . you used to be a reporter . you know what happens now . jennifer : you 're right . and i know what to do , and i know how to fight this . abigail : well , what about anne milbauer and theresa and -- jennifer : oh , please . honey , you know what ? they just annoy me , and kayla will keep that in check . what i need to do is call the hospital and see how far this has gotten . and with any luck , we 'll just have a couple hours to figure out what to say . abigail : mom ... i 'm so sorry . jennifer : honey , stop it . you made a mistake . it was not your decision to broadcast it to the world . you are not to blame here . sonny : you said you made adjustments to the article . i see it . i see abigail 's name . why would n't i think it 's you ? will : because i have a shred of decency . do you really think i would do anything to get on the cover ? sonny : not anything , but ... will : but ? sonny : well , it 's the truth . abigail slept with ej , so i thought maybe you were convinced . will : [ scoffs ] what is the one thing that i 've been saying this whole time ? that i would never hurt abigail . do you think i 'm that desperate ? sonny : i 'm sorry . will : yeah , sorry does n't fix anything . sonny : look , i know you worked really hard on this article . this is important to you . it 's a big break . so i thought if the editor said you either put abigail 's name in it , or we kill the story ... will : and you know what i 'd say ? i 'd say , `` go ahead . kill the story . `` [ scoffs ] you do n't believe me , do you ? [ knock at door ] jj : hey , you son of a bitch . what did my sister ever do to you ? sami : okay , just give it to me . ej : what the hell are you doing ? sami : i need to put this in context . ej : `` context `` ? what are you talk -- did you know about this ? sami : i did . ej : please do not tell me that you have something to do with this article . sami : no , not like that . but i did find out about it , and i did everything i could to try and stop it from being published . ej : stop right -- what did you -- did you bribe somebody ? oh , samantha , please do n't tell me you tried to bribe the publisher . there are other ways of dealing with a situation like this . sami : you could n't have stopped it either . ej : you have no idea . i could 've stopped it like that . sami : well , it 's too late . it 's out now . ej : you were n't even going to tell me , were you ? sami : please , you could n't have stopped it either . and , you know , since i found out it was going to be published , i had a lot of work to do . excuse me . ej : so you called the board ? sami : every member . and a lot of our major investors as well . i called everyone overseas last night , and i called all the stockholders this morning . ej : and what exactly was your spin on it ? sami : basically just that it was a sensationalized version of what was essentially a corporate transition and that kate and i have always had the best interests of the company at heart , especially when we took over . ej : so wait a second . the boardroom maneuver is in this article ? sami : oh , yeah , along with some personal details about us . ej : oh , i see . that explains -- now i understand why mr. shin is suddenly so interested in our marriage . sami : indeed , and he expressed to me that our reunion will go a long way towards comforting the board . and he assumed we were back together since he spoke to you the other day . ej : right , so you let him believe that . sami : of course i did . i do n't want him focused on what kate and i did . he 'd lose sight of the big picture . and since you 're okay with everything ... ej : am i ? sami : and we 're at peace ... i was able to prevent an emergency board meeting . ej : for now . it would have been nice to have had some idea about the information in hand , samantha . sami : you think you deserved a warning , really ? ej : oh , i know that you do n't think i deserve any consideration whatsoever . but as i am going to get some telephone calls about this , a heads - up would 've been nice . sami : i was busy dealing with the fact that this was coming out . i had a lot of calls to make and fires to put out . you would 've done the exact same thing . ej : would i ? would i really ? so tell me , did you -- did you get all of these fires out ? sami : i did . obviously , they have n't read the article yet . so i 'm assuming i 'm going to have some follow - ups to deal with . ej : judging by the look on your face , i shudder to think about what might be in that article . sami : [ scoffs ] ej : i 'm just going to go upstairs and read it . if there is any inaccuracy in this , any mistake , i am suing their asses . sami : it 's all true ... well researched and -- well , i hate to admit it -- well written . ej : `` by william horton . `` your son wrote this . sonny : will did n't name your sister . will : i 've got this . jj : oh , do you ?

how could you blow that ? rafe : i do n't know , okay ? i do n't know . it was stupid . i wish i could take it back , but ... lucas : well , that 's not gon na work , but you might be able to repair the damage , maybe . ben : hey . i just saw -- jordan : hey , have you read this ? ben : what ? jordan : abigail 's pal page . people are saying horrible things about her . ben : i 've got to go . kate : this conversation is over . clyde : oh , now , kate , come on . kate : look , i have been polite to you . you do n't know many people in town , but , uh , done . clyde : i have made some friends . i 'm meeting new people all the time , like rafe ... you know , jordan 's boyfriend . he 's a friend of yours too , is n't he ?

what are you talk -- did you know about this ? sami : i did . ej : please do not tell me that you have something to do with this article . sami : no , not like that . but i did find out about it , and i did everything i could to try and stop it from being published . ej : stop right -- what did you -- did you bribe somebody ? oh , samantha , please do n't tell me you tried to bribe the publisher . there are other ways of dealing with a situation like this . sami : you could n't have stopped it either . ej : you have no idea . i could 've stopped it like that . sami : well , it 's too late . it 's out now . ej : you were n't even going to tell me , were you ? sami : please , you could n't have stopped it either . and , you know , since i found out it was going to be published , i had a lot of work to do . excuse me . ej : so you called the board ? sami : every member . and a lot of our major investors as well . i called everyone overseas last night , and i called all the stockholders this morning . ej : and what exactly was your spin on it ? sami : basically just that it was a sensationalized version of what was essentially a corporate transition and that kate and i have always had the best interests of the company at heart , especially when we took over . ej : so wait a second . the boardroom maneuver is in this article ? sami : oh , yeah , along with some personal details about us . ej : oh , i see . that explains -- now i understand why mr. shin is suddenly so interested in our marriage . sami : indeed , and he expressed to me that our reunion will go a long way towards comforting the board . and he assumed we were back together since he spoke to you the other day . ej : right , so you let him believe that . sami : of course i did . i do n't want him focused on what kate and i did . he 'd lose sight of the big picture . and since you 're okay with everything ... ej : am i ? sami : and we 're at peace ... i was able to prevent an emergency board meeting . ej : for now . it would have been nice to have had some idea about the information in hand , samantha . sami : you think you deserved a warning , really ?

would i really ? so tell me , did you -- did you get all of these fires out ? sami : i did . obviously , they have n't read the article yet . so i 'm assuming i 'm going to have some follow - ups to deal with . ej : judging by the look on your face , i shudder to think about what might be in that article . sami : [ scoffs ] ej : i 'm just going to go upstairs and read it . if there is any inaccuracy in this , any mistake , i am suing their asses . sami : it 's all true ... well researched and -- well , i hate to admit it -- well written . ej : `` by william horton . `` your son wrote this . sonny : will did n't name your sister . will : i 've got this . jj : oh , do you ?

i never saw any man with beth wallace . and this business of her being so pregnant she could , as you say , pop any minute -- it 's ridiculous . i mean , i just saw beth recently , and she was n't pregnant . woman : i do n't know what 's going on , but the other patients are afraid of how upset beth 's friend is getting . dr. culver : the last thing i need is patients having heart attacks in my waiting room . my malpractice insurance rates will go through the roof . all right , i 'll go out and see beth and find out what 's going on . although i ca n't understand how she could possibly be pregnant , much less close to her due date . luis : hey . hey , i know that you can hear me back there . i want to see the doctor . i want to see dr . culver now . beth : i 've got to get out of here before the real dr . culver sees me , or it 's all over . kidnapping sheridan will have been for nothing . luis , come on . stop . charlie : let me just toss my tools back here and we can hit the road . oh , boy . all the triggers are set , and the house is bursting at the seams with gas . when luis and his cop cronies show up to find sheridan -- kaboom . all the evidence that blondie was kidnapped will be obliterated , including sheridan herself . as they say , dead women tell no tales . hey , edna , what are you doing in the passenger seat ?

oh , by the way -- tillie sends her best , says she misses you . lindsay : i ca n't go back there , nora . nora : i ca n't help you , lindsay . i know you were down at the docks . but until you can tell me why you were down there , i ca n't help you . lindsay : i do n't think that you would really help me anyway . nora : well , you can take your chances with me , or you can take your chances with tillie . lindsay : ok . ok , i 'll tell you the truth . i was on the docks that night , making love to troy . jen : are n't you going to say anything ? rex : slut . jen : ok , now it 's my turn . divorce . i want one . nora : so you were down at the docks , with troy , making love ? lindsay : now you know . nora : and now i know . now i know . i know why you 're never going to get out of here , that 's what i know . lindsay : what , you do n't believe me ? ask him . nora : i 'm going to . lindsay : well , if troy denies it , you tell him he is also a suspect and he 'll tell you everything including how he came back here to make love to me . nora : was that before or after you stopped at the moon ? lindsay : you really do n't believe me . nora : no . lindsay : i -- oh . of course . why would he make love to me when it 's you that he really wants , right ? nora : no , lindsay . i have removed myself from that game . and troy has moved on . lindsay : you do n't know him like i do , nora . nora : no , i don't . but , lindsay , he 's not the man you think he is . troy : looks like you got the whole terrace to yourself out here . gabrielle : pathetic , is n't it ? troy : uh , well , that 's not exactly how i meant it , but -- gabrielle : troy , in argentina where i come from , women do n't dine alone . troy : so , then do n't . gabrielle : apparently , no one is available this evening . troy : ah . well , you know , i do n't have any plans if you 'd like some company . gabrielle : why not ? troy : why not ? rex : i should be asking you for a divorce . you 're the one messing around . jen : the only reason you came back to the room is so i 'd sign that lame contract of yours . rex : yeah . good thing , too , or who knows how long it would 've been before i found out . jen : do you even care ? rex : you do n't think i do ? jen : about my money . rex : i was in it for more than that . i thought you were , too . jen : oh , quit trying to guilt - trip me . all you want is my money and you know i do n't give a damn about it . so if i sign this , will you give me the divorce ? jen : here . go buy your club . have a nice life . bartender : that is one fine woman . who is she ? rex : my wife . carlotta : unbelievable ! i would think a minister 's son would have better manners . adriana : he was just trying to defend me . carlotta : i ca n't believe how you could defend him when he shows so much disrespect ! come . adriana : may i please have a minute to say goodbye ? por favor ? carlotta : all right , but that 's all . and you -- do n't even think of repeating that behavior . river : wonder what century she 's from . adriana : she 's just trying to watch out for me -- river : yeah . adriana : like you are . thank you . river : ah , it 's no big deal . adriana : it was to me . river : hey , there 's my bus . uh -- adriana : you 're going to miss it . river : yeah . [ bus drives off ] bo : why did you lie and say that you were with blair that night ? walker : i did n't . i said i was at the palace , and i was . why do n't you ask the front desk clerk ? bo : we already did , and it all checked out . so you 're in the clear on that anyway , but -- but you still covered for blair . blair : no , he didn't . i was the one that said we were together all night . bo : and he did n't dispute it . dorian : ok , he 's guilty ! yes , for not correcting your misconception -- yet another one of your misconceptions . ok ? that is n't a crime . in fact , nobody in this room has committed a crime , so , case dismissed ? blair : no , no , no . i want to know how mitch 's feather from his mask got into my purse , bo . bo : ca n't you guess , blair ? blair : no . bo : someone is trying to set you up . andrew : thanks for letting me know , carlotta . yes , i will . all right . thanks , again . hey , that was carlotta vega . river : yeah ? andrew : what happened down at angel square ? river : oh , she caught me kissing some girl that was staying with her , so -- andrew : she says that you were very -- very rude . river : uh - oh , so now you 're sticking up for some crazy old lady over your own kid . wow . thanks , dad . andrew : river , why -- why were you running away ? now , look , i found this . i was about to call the police when i heard from mrs . vega . do you know how worried i get when i read something like this ? son , look at me . i was about to lose it . river : look , dad , i 'm about to lose it , all right ? i 'm about to lose it if i have to stay here . andrew : river , the court says that you spend the school year with your mom , you spend the summer with me . now , why do you want to make me feel like you want to run away ? what are you trying to do ? you want to get my attention , riv ? you want my attention , you 've got it . you want to scare me , you did . river : dad , i really do n't want to talk about this now , ok ? andrew : you do n't want to talk about -- fine ! you want to -- think about it , then . think about it for the rest of the night in your room ! river : wait -- what ? andrew : you heard me . listen , i 'm not going to have you run around this town treating people like you did tonight . and if you do , it 's going to turn into one long summer . river : yeah . adriana : madrina , i 'll wash all the dishes when i get to the diner -- carlotta : when you get back there , i want you to promise me never to see that boy again . adriana : but he did nothing wrong . carlotta : oh , no , he did plenty wrong , and nothing 's going to change my mind . joey : hey . jen : you 're still here . joey : i had to know everything was ok . jen : it is now . joey : so , how 'd things go with rex ? jen : we 're getting a divorce . and i do n't think it 'll take very long considering we just got married . joey : god . the thought of you stuck in a marriage with somebody who did n't even care -- jen : it 's over . and it 's just starting for us . joey : we should n't . jen : we already did . joey : i know , we just -- we need to step back . jen : why ? joey : you 're married . jen : i 'm getting a divorce . joey : just -- just until then . jen : it wo n't take very long . joey : then we can be together . jen : i want you now . joey : it 's not right . jen : how can it be wrong when we feel this way about each other , when we belong together ? i do n't want to waste another minute . rex : can i get another one over here , or what ? bartender : think maybe you ought to call it a night , pal ? rex : did i ask you ? bartender : that wife of yours did some number on you . rex : and you know what ? she 's not going to get away with it . troy : lucky for me , i happened to come out here when i did , huh ? gabrielle : mm - hmm . i was dreading spending this evening by myself . i do n't really know why i should 've been dreading it . it 's something i ought to get used to . troy : why is that ? gabrielle : commissioner of the police -- very busy man . troy : ah . gabrielle : oh , but you know all about that . you 're a doctor , a very busy doctor -- lots of hours . must 've been tough on nora . troy : no , not really . gabrielle : what , she enjoyed having all those hours to herself ? troy : i think nora kind of likes that in a relationship . or , who knows -- maybe she just did n't want to be around me . gabrielle : hey , i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to bring the evening down . troy : oh , please . are you kidding me ? there 's not a chance of that . we have -- we have great food , great champagne , and a beautiful woman to share it with . oh , i 'm sorry . i hope i did n't say something wrong . gabrielle : no . it 's not you . it 's just -- troy : it 's just what ? gabrielle : when i planned this evening , i -- i just imagined bo saying those words . troy : ah . well -- gabrielle : i got very angry . i got very , very angry at him . troy : did you two have a fight ? gabrielle : bo is a very kind -- very kind and gentle man always , always . he got angry tonight . he got angry . i am such a fool . troy : gabrielle , you 're not a fool . bo is . [ phone rings ] bo : excuse me , i got to take this . yeah ? blair : ok . i want to know why someone would try and set me up , huh ? why ? walker : better question is who . had to be someone close enough to you to plant that feather . dorian : oh , please . would i be so obvious ? blair : you always are . dorian : oh -- listen , here . you give me some credit , will you ? walker : you had the means , the major motive -- dorian : yes , and the opportunity , of course . yes , yes , many , many opportunities . i could have killed mitch any number of times , but i didn't . but i 'm telling you , if i had killed him , the last thing i would ever do is try to frame my own niece for it . walker : though you 'd frame someone . dorian : and would n't you , walker ? blair , listen to me . you ca n't possibly think that i am trying to set you up for murder . i know that i have hurt people in my own family unintentionally , but i love all of you so much , i would do anything . i would fight to the death for you . well , i 'd better check and see what 's taking bo so long . blair : she did n't do it . walker : well -- blair : `` well , `` what ? walker : nothing . forget it . blair : you think that she would set me up , do n't you ? walker : let 's just say she did kill mitch . if it came down to her taking the rap or you , who do you think she 'd choose ? livvie come on . i wo n't bi jen : do n't stop . joey : i -- i do n't want to . i mean , we 're in the same room together . i want to make love to you . it 's just we ca n't mess this up . jen : i know . you 're a minister and it would look bad . i 've probably already screwed everything up for you . joey : no . no , no , no , not because of that . we do n't want to give rex any more ammo in the divorce . jen : that 's not a problem because i gave rex what he wanted . joey : which was ? jen : the money he needed for that club with r . j. gannon . joey : i do n't know if you should 've done that . jen : it 's fine , as long as it buys me out of this marriage , right ? joey : and rex agreed to that ? jen : it 's going to be over really soon . rex : um -- you reverend carpenter ? andrew : yes , i am . and you are ? rex : rex balsom . i 'm here about joe buchanan . andrew : oh , ok . what about him ?

sister theresa : she did n't ask . lindsay : thank you . sister theresa : but she did ask about dr . maciver 's visit here the other day . is that who you 're in love with ? he is a visiting physician here . it is totally inappropriate for him to be involved with one of the patients . lindsay : nora 's just jealous . i think she wants to make trouble for him . sister theresa : well , that 's one sure way to do it . he could lose his job or even his medical license . lindsay : what are you doing ? you 're risking everything for me . i was right . you are in love with me . troy : what do you say ? should we order another bottle of champagne ? gabrielle : i think i 've probably had enough already . well , why not ? troy : well , let me tell you -- any time that you need someone to dine with , i am your man . gabrielle : oh , i 'm hoping there wo n't be another night -- night like this , but -- no offense taken , i hope . troy : not at all . so , are you going to try and patch things up with bo ? gabrielle : yeah , if he 'll forgive me . troy : come on , gabrielle . you ca n't think that this is all your fault . gabrielle : oh , many people might , though , given my checkered past . troy : ah , i see . so you 're the bad girl , is that it ? gabrielle : watch out . get too close , i 'll tarnish that halo of yours . troy : well , then , i think it 's a good thing that i do n't have a halo . gabrielle : you really do n't think that any of this could 've been my fault ? troy : you know what i think ? i think that you deserve a whole lot more attention than you 've been getting . i think that you are a beautiful woman , and i can not remember the last time that i 've enjoyed myself this much . gabrielle : neither can i . nora : excuse me . have dr . cummings and dr . maciver left ? bartender : the lady did , but dr . maciver is out on the terrace . bo : all right , thanks . dorian : was that call about me ? bo : now , what makes you think this call is about you , dorian ? dorian : blair 's been cleared , walker 's been cleared . now it 's my turn . blair : dorian did not kill mitch . walker : commissioner buchanan crossed us off the suspect list , but he did n't say a word about dorian . why ? bo : well , you 're right . that call was about you . dorian : oh . i 'm glad that 's settled . bo : no , it 's not settled , though , dorian . dorian : i could n't have killed mitch . my car broke down . i had to walk to the palace . bo : we checked out your car . there 's nothing wrong with it . dorian : that 's impossible . bo : oh , it 's possible . now , you have another excuse ? because right now you do n't have an alibi . [ next_on ] dorian : you ca n't possibly think i killed mitch ? gabrielle : i ca n't do this . troy : of course you can . of course you can . rex : you want a divorce ? i want all your money . andrew : you stay away from jen , or you resign from st . james ! | walker shows blair his headline for the sun , saying she 's being unfairly accused . carlotta catches river kissing adrianna . bo & gabrielle make plans for dinner , but bo 's called away once again & this time gabrielle 's upset . she tells him he 's going to have to make time with her a bigger priority or else . rae warns troy about his randy behavior at the hospital . she tells him there 's been complaints . rex walks in on joe & jenn . she tells him she wants a divorce . walker starts to try & make dorian look guilty in the murder . blair is cleared of suspicion when her alibi checks out . dorian , however , does not have one . walker tries to make blair suspect dorian of being the murderer . nora questions lindsay about her scarf being left at the scene . lindsay confesses to being with troy on the docks . troy offers to have dinner with gabrielle , in place of bo . he then makes a pass at her . river changes his mind about running away & gets chewed out by andrew . bo accuses walker of covering for blair 's alibi . one of the nun 's warns lindsay not to get involved with her doctor , because he can get into trouble . dorian winds up the new suspect in the case . | <s>[INST] [ previously_on ] lindsay : i made love to the man that i was trying to kill ! if they find that out , they 're going to think i 'm insane ! blair : this is libel , and you know it ! i 'm going to beat kevin buchanan at his own game , and you have to stay . natalie : jen does n't love you . she just married you to stick it to joe . jen : just walk away . just leave me alone . just let go ! joey : i ca n't let go .

troy : uh , well , that 's not exactly how i meant it , but -- gabrielle : troy , in argentina where i come from , women do n't dine alone . troy : so , then do n't . gabrielle : apparently , no one is available this evening . troy : ah . well , you know , i do n't have any plans if you 'd like some company . gabrielle : why not ? troy : why not ? rex : i should be asking you for a divorce . you 're the one messing around . jen : the only reason you came back to the room is so i 'd sign that lame contract of yours . rex : yeah . good thing , too , or who knows how long it would 've been before i found out . jen : do you even care ? rex : you do n't think i do ? jen : about my money . rex : i was in it for more than that . i thought you were , too . jen : oh , quit trying to guilt - trip me . all you want is my money and you know i do n't give a damn about it . so if i sign this , will you give me the divorce ?

troy : i think nora kind of likes that in a relationship . or , who knows -- maybe she just did n't want to be around me . gabrielle : hey , i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to bring the evening down . troy : oh , please . are you kidding me ? there 's not a chance of that . we have -- we have great food , great champagne , and a beautiful woman to share it with . oh , i 'm sorry . i hope i did n't say something wrong . gabrielle : no . it 's not you . it 's just -- troy : it 's just what ? gabrielle : when i planned this evening , i -- i just imagined bo saying those words . troy : ah . well -- gabrielle : i got very angry . i got very , very angry at him . troy : did you two have a fight ? gabrielle : bo is a very kind -- very kind and gentle man always , always . he got angry tonight . he got angry . i am such a fool . troy : gabrielle , you 're not a fool . bo is . [ phone rings ] bo : excuse me , i got to take this . yeah ? blair : ok . i want to know why someone would try and set me up , huh ? why ? walker : better question is who . had to be someone close enough to you to plant that feather . dorian : oh , please . would i be so obvious ? blair : you always are . dorian : oh -- listen , here . you give me some credit , will you ? walker : you had the means , the major motive -- dorian : yes , and the opportunity , of course . yes , yes , many , many opportunities . i could have killed mitch any number of times , but i didn't . but i 'm telling you , if i had killed him , the last thing i would ever do is try to frame my own niece for it . walker : though you 'd frame someone . dorian : and would n't you , walker ?

jen : the money he needed for that club with r . j. gannon . joey : i do n't know if you should 've done that . jen : it 's fine , as long as it buys me out of this marriage , right ? joey : and rex agreed to that ? jen : it 's going to be over really soon . rex : um -- you reverend carpenter ? andrew : yes , i am . and you are ? rex : rex balsom . i 'm here about joe buchanan . andrew : oh , ok . what about him ?

sister theresa : she did n't ask . lindsay : thank you . sister theresa : but she did ask about dr . maciver 's visit here the other day . is that who you 're in love with ? he is a visiting physician here . it is totally inappropriate for him to be involved with one of the patients . lindsay : nora 's just jealous . i think she wants to make trouble for him . sister theresa : well , that 's one sure way to do it . he could lose his job or even his medical license . lindsay : what are you doing ? you 're risking everything for me . i was right . you are in love with me . troy : what do you say ? should we order another bottle of champagne ? gabrielle : i think i 've probably had enough already . well , why not ? troy : well , let me tell you -- any time that you need someone to dine with , i am your man . gabrielle : oh , i 'm hoping there wo n't be another night -- night like this , but -- no offense taken , i hope . troy : not at all . so , are you going to try and patch things up with bo ? gabrielle : yeah , if he 'll forgive me . troy : come on , gabrielle . you ca n't think that this is all your fault . gabrielle : oh , many people might , though , given my checkered past . troy : ah , i see . so you 're the bad girl , is that it ? gabrielle : watch out . get too close , i 'll tarnish that halo of yours . troy : well , then , i think it 's a good thing that i do n't have a halo . gabrielle : you really do n't think that any of this could 've been my fault ? troy : you know what i think ? i think that you deserve a whole lot more attention than you 've been getting . i think that you are a beautiful woman , and i can not remember the last time that i 've enjoyed myself this much . gabrielle : neither can i . nora : excuse me . have dr . cummings and dr . maciver left ? bartender : the lady did , but dr . maciver is out on the terrace . bo : all right , thanks . dorian : was that call about me ? bo : now , what makes you think this call is about you , dorian ? dorian : blair 's been cleared , walker 's been cleared . now it 's my turn . blair : dorian did not kill mitch . walker : commissioner buchanan crossed us off the suspect list , but he did n't say a word about dorian . why ? bo : well , you 're right . that call was about you . dorian : oh . i 'm glad that 's settled . bo : no , it 's not settled , though , dorian . dorian : i could n't have killed mitch . my car broke down . i had to walk to the palace . bo : we checked out your car . there 's nothing wrong with it . dorian : that 's impossible . bo : oh , it 's possible . now , you have another excuse ?

i have fought victor newman for decades . you know what i 've learned ? getting down in the gutter with victor is a losing proposition . phyllis : i disagree . jack : all it does is perpetuate the endless cycle of revenge our families have been locked in for years now . i would like that to end . i 'd like to take the high road and negotiate some peace between the abbotts and the newmans . billy : is that what you were doing , jack , when you decided not to tell me that adam was still alive ?

! you covered for that dirtbag . you appeased him the same way you 're appeasing victor right now , and look what it got you , jack . it got you a war anyway , because adam launched paragon . it nearly destroyed both our families ! jack : and you thought relaunching it was the solution . billy : well , it 's better than what you did ... jack : oh , come on . billy : ... nothing . phyllis : okay . please stop this . okay . we ca n't do this . we do n't have time to dwell on this . there is a new threat we need to deal with . jack : what are you talking about ?

kevin : nope . mariah : a teleportation device ? kevin : no . mariah : is it a human `` mute `` button ? you know , it would kind of be like a remote control but for humans , and then if they 're talking too much or annoying you , you can turn it down to get them to shut up ? kevin : it 's not that , although that is so appealing to me right now . mariah : are you seriously not gon na tell me what this is ? ! kevin : i 'm not because i ca n't trust anyone with this . mariah : not even me ?

noah : i 'll bet you that mom wishes she 'd fought harder to reach you . nick : it 's different . noah : yeah , you 're right -- it 's different , because the roles are reversed this time . you make sage feel , so she 's pushing you away . nick : son , i ca n't force sage to come home , just like you ca n't do with marisa . noah : no . no , we ca n't . but marisa means everything to me , so i 'm gon na fight for her . i 'm gon na fight for her . and i think you should do the same thing with sage . sage : adam , every single time i laid in to you , it was because i was upset that you were n't gabriel . chelsea : that -- that must have been a very difficult time for you . sage : chelsea , i 'm so sorry if i just made you feel uncomfortable . that 's the last thing i 'd want . you 've been so kind and generous to me . chelsea : no . you did n't make us uncomfortable , sage . sage : i think i 'm gon na be a complication , being here . you just got your family together , and now i 'm here . adam : well , look -- i mean , it 's a couple of nights in the guest room . it 's no big deal . sage : i do n't want to wear out my welcome , and , to be honest , i left nick because i needed some time alone . adam : right . okay . well , you know , i mean , in that case , um ... our place across the hall -- our old place -- is vacant . why do n't you stay there ? sage : do you think i could stay there for a while ? adam : i know the real - estate agent . she 's a good friend of mine . i 'll speak to her . we 'll set up a lease . you stay as long as you want . sage : you sure ? adam : yeah , positive . sounds perfect . sage : okay . all right . i 'm gon na take you up on that offer . jack : he also wants to be compensated for this latest round of losses -- the money he lost when billy relaunched paragon ?

when ? billy : when i crush that self - righteous bastard . jack : what if he crushes you first ? and not just you -- me , ashley , everything our father built . billy : that 's not gon na happen . jack : what , are you dumb or just naive ? phyllis : jack . billy : oh , that 's great . jack : you do n't get it , do you -- either of you ? this man just lost his shirt . you thought he was dangerous before ? you watch now . this time it could cost us our father 's company , all because of your insatiable need for revenge , without considering the consequences , not just for you -- for all of us . great job . dad would have been real proud of you , little brother . billy : well , he 'd be a hell of a lot more proud of me for standing up for the family name than he would have you for being such a coward . phyllis : jack . kevin : hey , hey , hey . i did n't say i do n't trust you . mariah : fine ! then tell me what the next big thing is you and heidi are working on . kevin : you know what sounds good right about now ? a peppermint latte . ' tis the season , ho ho ho , and all that -- my treat . mariah : whoa , whoa , whoa . slow down , big spender . you have n't made a dime yet . kevin : actually , i have . chasing paragon has been a very lucrative side job -- two side jobs , actually . i 'm collecting paychecks from the newmans and the abbotts . noah : do n't forget about me . i , uh , also paid you to help me find marisa 's daughter . mariah : wow ! look at that ! you can treat everybody . i 'm gon na get extra sour cream on my burrito . kevin : sure . i 'm in the mood to celebrate . noah : well , i hate to kill the mood , but i am not . mariah : what 's wrong ? noah : kevin ... i paid you to do a job , and you did n't do it . now marisa 's run off with luca to go find their daughter . kevin : dude , i 'm sorry . noah : yeah . you look real sorry . mariah : noah ! noah : i 'm losing my mind , worrying about marisa , wishing like hell that i could help her find ava . i paid you to do a job , kevin . you did n't do it , mr. big shot . kevin : hey , i 've been working my ass off , trying to make sure that paragon does n't decimate jabot and newman . noah : good job ! you failed , kevin , just like you failed at helping me find marisa 's daughter . phyllis : jack is not a coward . billy : you know what ? the jack i know never would have backed down to victor newman . jack : yeah . how did going head - to - head with him work for you , billy ? billy : well , at least i did something . jack : yeah , you reignited a war between the two families and accepted no responsibility for any of it . billy : i stood up for the abbott name , and i 'm not going to apologize for that . jack : no , of course you 're not . phyllis : we need to discuss a strategy here . billy : phyllis , there 's nothing to discuss . you think it 's my fault ? fire me . i 'll go after victor myself . jack : he 's suing all of us , billy . billy : yes , but it 's me that he wants to see suffer . so i separate from the pack , he comes after me , leaves the rest of you alone . phyllis : we would n't do that to you , billy . billy : no , no . no , it 's okay . jack 's right . i 'm to blame for this situation , so why should the rest of you have to deal with it ? phyllis : because we all want to see victor suffer . right , jack ? jack : yes . but there 's a better answer than the way you two have been going at it . billy : oh , yes . of course there is . jack : you made this mess , billy . stay out of my way while i clean it up . chelsea : sage go out ? adam : uh , yeah . she said she had something to take care of and she would n't be back till tonight . chelsea : oh . adam : yeah . chelsea : well , that was nice of you to suggest she move in next door . adam : nice because it 's the right thing to do or nice meaning she wo n't be here anymore ? chelsea : no , nice that you care about her . it says a lot about your relationship . adam : friendship . sweetheart , our relationship is a friendship . you know that . chelsea : yeah , i know , and you 're doing what any decent friend would do , you know -- you 're there for her when she needs you , and you 're giving her a shoulder to lean on . adam : right . let me ask you a question . um ... are you jealous ? chelsea : stop it . no , i 'm not jealous . adam : really ? okay . then where are you going with this ? chelsea : no , i just -- sometimes it seems like there 's , like , something more going on between you and sage that you 're not saying . adam : like what ? what do you mean ? chelsea : well , you said you only slept with her once , right ? adam : that 's the truth . yeah . chelsea : she says she 's not in love with you , i know you 're not in love with her , so ... what is it , adam ? what is it you 're not telling me ? nick : th - that 's , uh -- that 's me . sage : i - i - i see that . nick : well , i 'm glad you 're here . i 'd much rather see you in person . sage : you may not feel that way after i tell you what i have to say . nick : that sounds ominous . sage : i 'm gon na move back in to my old apartment . nick : the place across from adam 's ? sage : yeah . he set it up . i 'm gon na stop by the house a little later and get my things . nick : your things ? how long are you planning to stay away ? sage : i 'm not sure . nick : why are you doing this ? sage : i do n't know . i - i just need to be on my own -- figure things out . nick : you know , if that were true , i would n't mind . but you keep turning to adam . why , sage ? why can you share your grief with him and not me ? sage : i 'm not trying to shut you out , nick . nick : well , that 's exactly what you 're doing . i 've tried to reach out to you , but you do n't want my help . you 'd rather talk to adam , which i find extremely confusing , considering the way he 's treated you . sage : adam and chelsea understand that i need time . i thought you understood that , nick . nick : i 'm not trying to pressure you . i want you to grieve in your own way , even if that means pushing me away , but i 'm starting to think i 'm going about this wrong , because all this distance is just driving us further apart . we need to be together right now . at least that 's what i want . i want to hold you . i want you to understand that i 'm hurting as much as you are . sage : nick , i -- nick : so , i need to say this . christian is gone . he 's gone , but we lost him together . i 've tried talking to ministers and therapists and family and friends . i do n't want to talk to them . i want to talk to you . please talk to me . kevin : noah , there are billions of people in the world . it 's a process . you ca n't expect me to find one kid when all you give me to go off of is her name . noah : you 're a smart guy , kevin . you know it . i know it . you 're always telling everybody how you can figure anything out . kevin : i 'm an expert in technology and deductive reasoning . i 'm not a magician . noah : that 's too bad that you could n't use your talents to help save an innocent girl from a destitute life . i guess it 's not as exciting or financially rewarding as corporate espionage . kevin : that 's not cool . noah : it 's a process , only i thought that you made marisa 's daughter a priority . mariah : okay . arguing is not gon na help find the kid . now , you said that marisa left with luca , right ? noah : he said he was gon na take her to find ava . mariah : okay . well , find out where they went . and he needs more information , like a birthdate or something . noah : she 's 5 years old . mariah : okay , that 's not a birthdate , so you need to call marisa and find out . noah : well , that might be a little difficult at the moment because she 's not really speaking to me . mariah : what did you do ? noah : i may have implied something about the methods that she used to convince luca . mariah : i do n't know why i 'm trying to help you when you ca n't even help yourself ! luca : heavens , marisa . where are you ? marisa : [ gasps softly ] ava . adam : okay . thank you very much . i 'll let sage know . that was easy . apartment 's all set . chelsea : great . adam : yeah . chelsea : uh , you know , we never got to finish our conversation about her . adam : right . um ... the truth is , i feel bad about the way i treated her . sage was the one that helped me find my way back to you and connor . without her , i do n't think i would have been able to do it . she sacrificed everything , and all i did was think about myself and what i wanted . i never once stopped to ask her what she wanted or what she was thinking about , so ... i feel bad . chelsea : you both have come a long way since then . adam : i still feel like i owe her ... something . [ doorbell rings ] adam : i 'll get that . jack : chelsea . chelsea : hi . adam : did you want to come in ? jack : you 've been saying you owe me . i 'm here to collect . noah : you think that it 's okay to coerce a woman to come back to you with her child ? luca : back off . noah : get out of here . i want you to leave -- now . luca : not without my wife . noah : your wife does n't want you anymore , luca ! luca : it 's her decision . marisa : luca 's right . it 's my decision . noah understands what i need him to do . luca : i know it wo n't be easy . believe me -- i understand . but it 's time let marisa go . noah : if you hurt marisa ... i will find you . luca : i intend to love her . noah : do it . go for it . she will hate you every minute . luca : you heard my wife . she wants this . noah : she just wants her child back . luca : marisa and i had something very special . that kind of love never goes away . mariah : if you keep accusing marisa of sleeping with her ex , eventually , you 're gon na get your wish . noah : i know . i 'm an idiot . mariah : i did n't say that , but , yes , you are , unless you 're trying to push her away , in which case good job . noah : i 'm not , although that is what dad thinks that i should be doing . mariah : nick thinks that you should push her away ? noah : no . it 's just ... in his own way , that 's kind of what he 's been doing with sage . he thinks that if he gives her enough distance that she 'll just somehow suddenly come around . mariah : yeah . i bet i know who gave him that advice . noah : grandpa ? mariah : no , dr. anderson . she was in here earlier to drop off a gift for sully and then ended up staying to give dylan and nick unsolicited advice . noah : really ? advice that you do n't agree with ? mariah : no more than i agreed with isolating sharon from visitors . noah : i mean , you ca n't really argue with the results . mariah : maybe . noah : you really do n't trust her , do you ? mariah : no , i do n't . kevin : hey , guys , i found something . luca : what are you doing ? marisa : i overheard you talking to your private investigator . i came to find my daughter . luca : you ca n't just go up to her . marisa : i have waited long enough . luca : you may be her mother , marisa , but she does n't know you . if you approach like this , you 'll frighten her . marisa : no more stalling , luca . luca : no . we have to go through the proper channels -- do what 's best for our daughter . marisa : being with her mother is what is best for ava . marisa : hi . phyllis : sure that 's a good idea ? billy : no , probably not . phyllis : i 'm just thinking something other than a liquid breakfast might help you see things more clearly . billy : i see things just fine , phyllis , and it 's the same old story ... jack lecturing me about how he 's always cleaning up my messes , telling me i need to fix my life , acting like my father instead of my brother . phyllis : he 's just looking out for you , billy . billy : yeah , well , i do n't need him to , okay ? and i sure as hell do n't need him to try and protect me . adam : jack , you kept my secret because you were trying to protect billy . jack : which i did n't have to do . adam : that 's not my point . my point is you kept my identity a secret because you 're loyal to billy , not me , because at the end of the day , the only thing that matters is blood . jack : well , i 'll try to remember that the next time your father turns on you . adam : my father and i are fine . jack : oh , i 'm well aware of your new allegiance . i 'm also aware of your latest endeavor . adam : you know about the lawsuit ? jack : did you think i would n't know about that ? chelsea : uh , lawsuit ? what are you talking about ? jack : oh , yeah . victor is suing jabot -- more specifically , billy , but i 'm sure victor does n't mind bringing the rest of us down with him . chelsea : adam wo n't let that happen . jack : that 's why i 'm here . i want you to tell victor to drop this suit . chelsea : of course he will . adam : no . no , i 'm not gon na do that . jack , the lawsuit was my idea . kevin : i checked all the international flights leaving genoa city . marisa and luca flew to majorca . noah : spain ? kevin : mm - hmm . they checked in to a hotel a few hours ago . the area is really high - end . the hotel is five - star . noah : oh , that 's great . i do n't really care about their accommodations . kevin : you will when i tell you what else i found . mariah : so , tell us . kevin : there 's a school not far from where marisa and luca are staying , and at that school there is a 5-year - old girl named ava registered . mariah : nice work ! kevin : i told you it 's a process . noah : kevin , look -- i 'm really sorry about coming down on you so hard . kevin : you do n't sound sorry . noah : i 'm sorry . this is great . maybe luca 's telling the truth . maybe he 's taking marisa to find her daughter . kevin : yeah , well , look at what else i found out . noah : what the hell ? luca : marisa , we must go . marisa : i , um -- i , uh ... like your teddy bear . i bet he 's been with you since you were born . that 's why he looks so loved . is he your favorite ? ava : yes . my mommy gave him to me . marisa : [ crying ] ava : why are you crying ? sage : i 'm sorry you 're in so much pain , nick . i do n't know what to say . nick : say you 'll come home . sage : i - i need time . nick : i know what you said . but i can not stay away from you . sage : nick , please . nick : no . no more excuses . it 's not working for either one of us . i love you , and i know you still love me , too . sage : of course i still love you . nick : christian died . our love does n't have to die with him . i do n't want that . sage : i do n't want it , either . nick : i want my wife back . i want us together ... now . sage : [ sighs ] billy : i do n't need jack fighting my battles for me , especially with victor . i can hold my own with that ... rusty old suit of armor . phyllis : i have no doubt . billy : thank you . at least somebody has faith in me . phyllis : jack believes in you , billy . billy : then he should listen to me . he should save himself from the rest of the family and cut me loose and walk away . phyllis : you 're right . he should . jack : it was your idea to sue my family , after everything i did for you ? adam : jack , you 've always had my back . jack : and now you 're sticking a knife in mine ? ! adam : you 're my friend . jack : friends look out for each other ! adam : that 's what i 'm doing , jack . jack : by filing a lawsuit that could bankrupt my company ? adam : my father wanted way more than to just bankrupt jabot . he was out for blood -- specifically , abbott blood , more specifically , yours ! and he 'd secured the means to get it . jack : what does that mean ? adam : luca santori 's family made a major investment in newman enterprises . now , i have it on good authority that my father was gon na use that money to exact his revenge on the abbotts . jack : so , this was your compromise ? adam : i convinced my father to take up his disagreements with you in court . he loved the idea of having the law on his side , he loved the idea of jabot suffering major financial loss , and he loved the idea of jabot suffering public humiliation . jack : oh , i 'm sure he did . adam : let me tell you what he does n't know . i 've got a built - in exit strategy for you . chelsea : and what is that ? adam : all you got to do is cut billy loose . jack , you let him take the fall . [ next_on ] noah : luca has been lying to you . something about the story about ava -- it does n't add up . chelsea : do you really hate billy that much that you would actually try to turn his own brother against him ? ashley : $ 50 million to make this go away ? ! victor : you had a zero to that . | luca tells marisa that he does n't know exactly where ava is but he hired an investigator to find her . marisa gets angry and leaves . when she comes back she eavesdrops as the private investigator tells luca where he found ava . marisa sneaks off to this location and sees ava . luca arrives and urges marisa not to approach their daughter because she might be scared . marisa approaches her anyway and begins to cry . sage tells adam and chelsea that she did n't fall in love with adam newman , she fell in love with gabe bingham and adam looked like him . she says she does n't want to wear out her welcome and agrees to move in next door when adam offers . chelsea gets the sense there is more to sage and adam 's relationship than friendship . nick and noah give each other advice . nick thinks noah should give marisa time and noah thinks nick should not be away from sage at this time . later , sage arrives to tell nick she is moving out but nick says he needs to be with her and he thinks she needs him too . they kiss . noah finds kevin at the coffee house and complains that kevin has n't made finding ava a priority . on the computer , kevin finds out where luca and marisa flew to , that there is a school nearby with a student named ava but something is n't right . mariah tells noah that she does n't trust dr. anderson . jack and billy argue about the lawsuit against jabot that billy caused by relaunching the paragon project . jack tells billy to stay out of his way while he tries to clean up the mess billy caused . jack goes to adam to ask him to drop the lawsuit . adam says he wo n't do that but he has a way for jack to come out unscathed . jack has to let billy take the fall . | <s>[INST] billy : go ahead , jack . do it . hit me . it 's not gon na change the truth . jack : what truth , billy , that your obsessive need for revenge has hurt our entire family -- that truth ? billy : no , jack . that you let victor walk all over you and me and everybody else that you claim to give a damn about , including phyllis . phyllis : stop right now ! stop it ! jack : what , are you gon na protect him now ? phyllis : billy 's right . you let victor get away with despicable behavior . chelsea : sometimes i forget how you and i met . sage : oh . well , that would be when i was pretending to be mrs. gabriel bingham . chelsea : oh , yeah -- one lie of many . sage : well , it was n't just adam 's lie . i was a co - conspirator . chelsea : well , i mean , you did a lot to help him . it was n't just acting . so , something must have made you want to go out of your way for him . sage : well , uh , he looked like my best friend . that helped . [ chuckles ] i do n't know . you know adam . he 's charming and confident , intelligent , and underneath all of that , he 's incredibly vulnerable . you know , he 's -- he 's a hard guy to resist . chelsea : you fell in love with him , did n't you ? sage : yeah . yeah , i - i did . adam : you fell in love with me ? kevin : yes . yes . yes ! mariah : sounds like this life - changing idea that your swiss girl with the dragon tattoo has is really rocking your world . kevin : i 'm not telling you what it is . mariah : fine ! but do n't call me when you need to be bailed out of trouble or jail . kevin : i 'm not doing anything illegal . i 'm just breaking new ground -- `` wow , i never thought in a million years this would happen in my lifetime `` new ground . it 's unbelievable , unfathomable , un -- mariah : i get it . you 're excited . kevin : i ca n't remember the last time i was this excited . mariah : and all over some yodel - hacking girl you met in the alps . kevin : she happens to be a computer genius who has a huge idea . she does n't even know how huge it is or how much money she stands to make off of it . mariah : but you do ? luca : i 'm starving . do you want to go out , or should i order room service ? marisa : i 'm not hungry . luca : well , we need food . marisa : i do n't want to eat , luca . i want to see my daughter . take me to see ava . luca : well , we ca n't go yet . marisa : why not ? luca : i have a private investigator trying to locate her , and as soon as he finds her -- marisa : as soon as he -- you said you knew where she was . luca : yes . well -- marisa : was that just a ploy to get me to come to spain with you ? nick : whoa ! easy on the glassware , bud . noah : i 'm sorry . nick : you want to talk about it ? noah : uh , talk about what ? nick : your fight with marisa . noah : good guess . nick : well , you slamming the glasses around -- it 's a good first clue . noah : [ sighs ] no , i do n't want to talk about marisa . what about you and sage ? you guys okay ? i mean , she is supposed to be here and she 's not , and you 're not supposed to be here and you are , so that was my first clue . nick : good guess , but let 's talk about you first . what 's going on with you and marisa ? noah : well , marisa told me that she 's gon na rush off with luca to go find their daughter , and , um , i lost it and i said some pretty harsh things . nick : well , things have been pretty stressful between you two lately . noah : yeah . yeah . they have . but it does n't give me the excuse to act like an ass . i need to make this right . nick : how are you gon na do that ? noah : i do n't know . i need to find her , and i need to convince her to come back and be with me and to leave luca and never look back . nick : that 'd be a big mistake , and you 'll always regret it . noah : a mistake ? r - really ? you -- you think that i should just let the woman that i love go ? of all people , i thought that you 'd understand that . nick : hey , hey , hey . i understand more than you think . jack : wow ! that sure says it , does n't it ? phyllis : look , i did n't -- beating up billy is not gon na help a thing . billy : i do n't need you to come to my rescue , phyllis . phyllis : shut up , billy ! i should n't have lied to you . neither of us should have . but victor was making fools of us . he thinks he can toy with our lives without consequence . he deserved to be punished . jack : and you did n't think i was ever gon na do that . is that what you 're saying ? i have fought victor newman for decades . you know what i 've learned ? getting down in the gutter with victor is a losing proposition . phyllis : i disagree . jack : all it does is perpetuate the endless cycle of revenge our families have been locked in for years now . i would like that to end . i 'd like to take the high road and negotiate some peace between the abbotts and the newmans . billy : is that what you were doing , jack , when you decided not to tell me that adam was still alive ? you were taking the high road ? because guess what . this latest round of revenge and paybacks -- that 's where it came from , jack -- you lying to me . you , you ingrate -- keep you out of jail ! billy : you still do n't get it , do you ? ! you covered for that dirtbag . you appeased him the same way you 're appeasing victor right now , and look what it got you , jack . it got you a war anyway , because adam launched paragon . it nearly destroyed both our families ! jack : and you thought relaunching it was the solution . billy : well , it 's better than what you did ... jack : oh , come on . billy : ... nothing . phyllis : okay . please stop this . okay . we ca n't do this . we do n't have time to dwell on this . there is a new threat we need to deal with . jack : what are you talking about ? phyllis : victor 's suing jabot . he wants payback for everything he 's lost . marisa : you see this ? this little girl is the only reason i got on a plane with you to fly halfway around the world . luca : i 'm here for our daughter , too . marisa : if you know where she is , you 'd better tell me right here . luca : she 's here in majorca . marisa : where ? ! luca : money must change hands before i have an exact location . marisa : you liar ! you used our daughter to get me to go away with you ! luca : no . no . i would n't do that to you . i swear , marisa . marisa : [ sighs ] if you 're lying to me ... i - i do n't think i can take it . luca : i give you my word . you 'll be reunited with your daughter , our little girl , very soon . marisa : [ sighs ] i ca n't believe it 's -- it 's finally gon na happen after all these years . i ... get to meet my baby . i would n't let myself believe it , that i would get to see her , talk to her , hold her in my arms . luca : have you thought about what you 're gon na do next ? do you want to go back to genoa city ? marisa : [ sighs ] i do n't know . there 's not much left for me there . luca : well , you could stay here . marisa : i do n't know what the future holds , luca . i just -- i want to be a good mother to my daughter . luca : i want to be a part of ava 's life , too . we could ... raise her together , maybe here in spain . marisa : i , uh ... need some air . luca : marisa , wait . i 've upset you . marisa : when we left genoa city , you told me you loved me . luca : i meant it . marisa : and you said that you would prove it by helping me find my daughter -- no strings attached . did you mean that , too ? nick : i 'm not saying you should give up on marisa . noah : well , it kind of sounds like that . nick : things have obviously gotten complicated . noah : well , you know what they say -- `` three 's a crowd . `` nick : it 's not just you , luca , and marisa anymore . there 's a little girl involved . noah : yeah , but , you see , that does n't change a thing for me . nick : maybe it does for marisa . i mean , you said she and luca went to find their daughter . who knows what that means ? noah : is this you telling me to not give up on marisa ? i - i -- nick : i 'm just saying you need to give her the time she needs to figure things out on her own . she 'll come back when she 's ready . i know it 's not easy , but it 's what i 'm doing with sage . noah : how is sage right now ? i mean , i heard that she had a hard time at sully 's christening . nick : yeah . uh ... yeah . she 's -- she stayed with adam and chelsea last night . noah : what ? nick : yeah . i think she 's gon na stay with them for a while . noah : no , dad . i 'm sorry , man . nick : yeah . it 's killing me . i saw her earlier . it did not go well . noah : so , you just ... gave up ? nick : i 'm giving her the space she needs . i 've been told that is the best thing i can do for her . noah : okay . well , i do n't know who the hell told you that , but i completely disagree . dad , giving sage space right now -- that 's the worst possible thing you could be doing . sage : no , i - i did n't love you . adam : that 's what you said . sage : i know that 's what i said . that 's not what i meant . adam : why do n't you say what you mean ? sage : i never loved adam newman . i loved the man you were pretending to be . chelsea : gabriel bingham . sage : yes . gabe is the only man i 've ever loved , besides from nick , of course . chelsea : of course . sage : you have to believe me . kevin : if i can pitch this new technology to the newmans and the abbotts , they will pay a fortune to get their hands on it , and when i broker the deal -- mariah : you 'll make a fraction of what you 'd make if you stole it from her . kevin : i ca n't do that . mariah : why , because you 'd never do something so underhanded ? kevin : no , i would n't -- not to her . mariah : not to this girl ? kevin , do you want to get into her lederhosen ? kevin : you make it sound like i 'm some creepy , lecherous old man trying to take advantage of this young , beautiful girl . mariah : wow . you did n't mention that she was young or beautiful . kevin : that 's because it 's irrelevant . i 'm only interested in her computer skills . mariah : yeah , right . i bet you want to get a hand on her skills . kevin : this idea right now -- it 's just a concept . it only exists in her head , so i could n't reproduce it even if i wanted to , which i do n't . mariah : you have n't even told me what `` it `` is . kevin : i know , because i 'm not going to . mariah : okay . give me a hint . kevin : no . mariah : is it a time machine ? kevin : nope . mariah : a teleportation device ? kevin : no . mariah : is it a human `` mute `` button ? you know , it would kind of be like a remote control but for humans , and then if they 're talking too much or annoying you , you can turn it down to get them to shut up ? kevin : it 's not that , although that is so appealing to me right now . mariah : are you seriously not gon na tell me what this is ? ! kevin : i 'm not because i ca n't trust anyone with this . mariah : not even me ? kevin : [ sighs ] luca : what did you find out ? i followed the girl for a week . she has the same routine every day . after school , she goes to santa lucia park with her mother for about an hour and then home . luca : so , she 's probably there now . it would be very easy for me to grab her . luca : no . we do this the way i said . noah : i 'm sorry . i should n't be telling you how to deal with your grief . i 've never lost a child . i do n't know how that feels . nick : yeah , i 've been down this road before . noah : yeah , i know . and i know what it did to you and mom when cassie died . nick : that 's what happens when someone 's life blows up . you just try and hang on to a piece of the wreckage and hope you survive , and that 's what i 'm doing . i 'm trying to stay afloat . noah : and trying to keep sage from drowning , and i know that that must be a - a heavy burden to bear , and i know that you think what you 're doing is right . well , i - i just ca n't do the same thing with marisa . i ca n't . i ca n't just sit back , wait for her to come around , act like i do n't care , like she does n't mean anything to me . nick : that 's not what i 'm doing . noah : i know that that may not be your intention ... but keeping your distance -- giving her time and space -- it can come off that way , like you do n't care . nick : what if that 's what she needs ? noah : i 'll bet you that mom wishes she 'd fought harder to reach you . nick : it 's different . noah : yeah , you 're right -- it 's different , because the roles are reversed this time . you make sage feel , so she 's pushing you away . nick : son , i ca n't force sage to come home , just like you ca n't do with marisa . noah : no . no , we ca n't . but marisa means everything to me , so i 'm gon na fight for her . i 'm gon na fight for her . and i think you should do the same thing with sage . sage : adam , every single time i laid in to you , it was because i was upset that you were n't gabriel . chelsea : that -- that must have been a very difficult time for you . sage : chelsea , i 'm so sorry if i just made you feel uncomfortable . that 's the last thing i 'd want . you 've been so kind and generous to me . chelsea : no . you did n't make us uncomfortable , sage . sage : i think i 'm gon na be a complication , being here . you just got your family together , and now i 'm here . adam : well , look -- i mean , it 's a couple of nights in the guest room . it 's no big deal . sage : i do n't want to wear out my welcome , and , to be honest , i left nick because i needed some time alone . adam : right . okay . well , you know , i mean , in that case , um ... our place across the hall -- our old place -- is vacant . why do n't you stay there ? sage : do you think i could stay there for a while ? adam : i know the real - estate agent . she 's a good friend of mine . i 'll speak to her . we 'll set up a lease . you stay as long as you want . sage : you sure ? adam : yeah , positive . sounds perfect . sage : okay . all right . i 'm gon na take you up on that offer . jack : he also wants to be compensated for this latest round of losses -- the money he lost when billy relaunched paragon ? phyllis : correct . jack : i told you this is what could happen . billy : oh , good . here it comes -- another lecture on what a screw - up i am . jack : you did screw up , billy ! billy : i stood up to victor ! jack : yeah , and now we 're facing a billion - dollar lawsuit that could bury our company . billy : bring it on . i 'm not afraid of lurch . jack : when is this gon na stop , billy ? when ? billy : when i crush that self - righteous bastard . jack : what if he crushes you first ? and not just you -- me , ashley , everything our father built . billy : that 's not gon na happen . jack : what , are you dumb or just naive ? phyllis : jack . billy : oh , that 's great . jack : you do n't get it , do you -- either of you ? this man just lost his shirt . you thought he was dangerous before ? you watch now . this time it could cost us our father 's company , all because of your insatiable need for revenge , without considering the consequences , not just for you -- for all of us . great job . dad would have been real proud of you , little brother . billy : well , he 'd be a hell of a lot more proud of me for standing up for the family name than he would have you for being such a coward . phyllis : jack . kevin : hey , hey , hey . i did n't say i do n't trust you . mariah : fine ! then tell me what the next big thing is you and heidi are working on . kevin : you know what sounds good right about now ? a peppermint latte . ' tis the season , ho ho ho , and all that -- my treat . mariah : whoa , whoa , whoa . slow down , big spender . you have n't made a dime yet . kevin : actually , i have . chasing paragon has been a very lucrative side job -- two side jobs , actually . i 'm collecting paychecks from the newmans and the abbotts . noah : do n't forget about me . i , uh , also paid you to help me find marisa 's daughter . mariah : wow ! look at that ! you can treat everybody . i 'm gon na get extra sour cream on my burrito . kevin : sure . i 'm in the mood to celebrate . noah : well , i hate to kill the mood , but i am not . mariah : what 's wrong ? noah : kevin ... i paid you to do a job , and you did n't do it . now marisa 's run off with luca to go find their daughter . kevin : dude , i 'm sorry . noah : yeah . you look real sorry . mariah : noah ! noah : i 'm losing my mind , worrying about marisa , wishing like hell that i could help her find ava . i paid you to do a job , kevin . you did n't do it , mr. big shot . kevin : hey , i 've been working my ass off , trying to make sure that paragon does n't decimate jabot and newman . noah : good job ! you failed , kevin , just like you failed at helping me find marisa 's daughter . phyllis : jack is not a coward . billy : you know what ? the jack i know never would have backed down to victor newman . jack : yeah . how did going head - to - head with him work for you , billy ? billy : well , at least i did something . jack : yeah , you reignited a war between the two families and accepted no responsibility for any of it . billy : i stood up for the abbott name , and i 'm not going to apologize for that . jack : no , of course you 're not . phyllis : we need to discuss a strategy here . billy : phyllis , there 's nothing to discuss . you think it 's my fault ? fire me . i 'll go after victor myself . jack : he 's suing all of us , billy . billy : yes , but it 's me that he wants to see suffer . so i separate from the pack , he comes after me , leaves the rest of you alone . phyllis : we would n't do that to you , billy . billy : no , no . no , it 's okay . jack 's right . i 'm to blame for this situation , so why should the rest of you have to deal with it ? phyllis : because we all want to see victor suffer . right , jack ? jack : yes . but there 's a better answer than the way you two have been going at it . billy : oh , yes . of course there is . jack : you made this mess , billy . stay out of my way while i clean it up . chelsea : sage go out ? adam : uh , yeah . she said she had something to take care of and she would n't be back till tonight . chelsea : oh . adam : yeah . chelsea : well , that was nice of you to suggest she move in next door . adam : nice because it 's the right thing to do or nice meaning she wo n't be here anymore ? chelsea : no , nice that you care about her . it says a lot about your relationship . adam : friendship . sweetheart , our relationship is a friendship . you know that . chelsea : yeah , i know , and you 're doing what any decent friend would do , you know -- you 're there for her when she needs you , and you 're giving her a shoulder to lean on . adam : right . let me ask you a question . um ... are you jealous ? chelsea : stop it . no , i 'm not jealous . adam : really ? okay . then where are you going with this ? chelsea : no , i just -- sometimes it seems like there 's , like , something more going on between you and sage that you 're not saying . adam : like what ? what do you mean ? chelsea : well , you said you only slept with her once , right ? adam : that 's the truth . yeah . chelsea : she says she 's not in love with you , i know you 're not in love with her , so ... what is it , adam ? what is it you 're not telling me ? nick : th - that 's , uh -- that 's me . sage : i - i - i see that . nick : well , i 'm glad you 're here . i 'd much rather see you in person . sage : you may not feel that way after i tell you what i have to say . nick : that sounds ominous . sage : i 'm gon na move back in to my old apartment . nick : the place across from adam 's ? sage : yeah . he set it up . i 'm gon na stop by the house a little later and get my things . nick : your things ? how long are you planning to stay away ? sage : i 'm not sure . nick : why are you doing this ? sage : i do n't know . i - i just need to be on my own -- figure things out . nick : you know , if that were true , i would n't mind . but you keep turning to adam . why , sage ? why can you share your grief with him and not me ? sage : i 'm not trying to shut you out , nick . nick : well , that 's exactly what you 're doing . i 've tried to reach out to you , but you do n't want my help . you 'd rather talk to adam , which i find extremely confusing , considering the way he 's treated you . sage : adam and chelsea understand that i need time . i thought you understood that , nick . nick : i 'm not trying to pressure you . i want you to grieve in your own way , even if that means pushing me away , but i 'm starting to think i 'm going about this wrong , because all this distance is just driving us further apart . we need to be together right now . at least that 's what i want . i want to hold you . i want you to understand that i 'm hurting as much as you are . sage : nick , i -- nick : so , i need to say this . christian is gone . he 's gone , but we lost him together . i 've tried talking to ministers and therapists and family and friends . i do n't want to talk to them . i want to talk to you . please talk to me . kevin : noah , there are billions of people in the world . it 's a process . you ca n't expect me to find one kid when all you give me to go off of is her name . noah : you 're a smart guy , kevin . you know it . i know it . you 're always telling everybody how you can figure anything out . kevin : i 'm an expert in technology and deductive reasoning . i 'm not a magician . noah : that 's too bad that you could n't use your talents to help save an innocent girl from a destitute life . i guess it 's not as exciting or financially rewarding as corporate espionage . kevin : that 's not cool . noah : it 's a process , only i thought that you made marisa 's daughter a priority . mariah : okay . arguing is not gon na help find the kid . now , you said that marisa left with luca , right ? noah : he said he was gon na take her to find ava . mariah : okay . well , find out where they went . and he needs more information , like a birthdate or something . noah : she 's 5 years old . mariah : okay , that 's not a birthdate , so you need to call marisa and find out . noah : well , that might be a little difficult at the moment because she 's not really speaking to me . mariah : what did you do ? noah : i may have implied something about the methods that she used to convince luca . mariah : i do n't know why i 'm trying to help you when you ca n't even help yourself ! luca : heavens , marisa . where are you ? marisa : [ gasps softly ] ava . adam : okay . thank you very much . i 'll let sage know . that was easy . apartment 's all set . chelsea : great . adam : yeah . chelsea : uh , you know , we never got to finish our conversation about her . adam : right . um ... the truth is , i feel bad about the way i treated her . sage was the one that helped me find my way back to you and connor . without her , i do n't think i would have been able to do it . she sacrificed everything , and all i did was think about myself and what i wanted . i never once stopped to ask her what she wanted or what she was thinking about , so ... i feel bad . chelsea : you both have come a long way since then . adam : i still feel like i owe her ... something . [ doorbell rings ] adam : i 'll get that . jack : chelsea . chelsea : hi . adam : did you want to come in ? jack : you 've been saying you owe me . i 'm here to collect . noah : you think that it 's okay to coerce a woman to come back to you with her child ? luca : back off . noah : get out of here . i want you to leave -- now . luca : not without my wife . noah : your wife does n't want you anymore , luca ! luca : it 's her decision . marisa : luca 's right . it 's my decision . noah understands what i need him to do . luca : i know it wo n't be easy . believe me -- i understand . but it 's time let marisa go . noah : if you hurt marisa ... i will find you . luca : i intend to love her . noah : do it . go for it . she will hate you every minute . luca : you heard my wife . she wants this . noah : she just wants her child back . luca : marisa and i had something very special . that kind of love never goes away . mariah : if you keep accusing marisa of sleeping with her ex , eventually , you 're gon na get your wish . noah : i know . i 'm an idiot . mariah : i did n't say that , but , yes , you are , unless you 're trying to push her away , in which case good job . noah : i 'm not , although that is what dad thinks that i should be doing . mariah : nick thinks that you should push her away ? noah : no . it 's just ... in his own way , that 's kind of what he 's been doing with sage . he thinks that if he gives her enough distance that she 'll just somehow suddenly come around . mariah : yeah . i bet i know who gave him that advice . noah : grandpa ? mariah : no , dr. anderson . she was in here earlier to drop off a gift for sully and then ended up staying to give dylan and nick unsolicited advice . noah : really ? advice that you do n't agree with ? mariah : no more than i agreed with isolating sharon from visitors . noah : i mean , you ca n't really argue with the results . mariah : maybe . noah : you really do n't trust her , do you ? mariah : no , i do n't . kevin : hey , guys , i found something . luca : what are you doing ? marisa : i overheard you talking to your private investigator . i came to find my daughter . luca : you ca n't just go up to her . marisa : i have waited long enough . luca : you may be her mother , marisa , but she does n't know you . if you approach like this , you 'll frighten her . marisa : no more stalling , luca . luca : no . we have to go through the proper channels -- do what 's best for our daughter . marisa : being with her mother is what is best for ava . marisa : hi . phyllis : sure that 's a good idea ? billy : no , probably not . phyllis : i 'm just thinking something other than a liquid breakfast might help you see things more clearly . billy : i see things just fine , phyllis , and it 's the same old story ... jack lecturing me about how he 's always cleaning up my messes , telling me i need to fix my life , acting like my father instead of my brother . phyllis : he 's just looking out for you , billy . billy : yeah , well , i do n't need him to , okay ? and i sure as hell do n't need him to try and protect me . adam : jack , you kept my secret because you were trying to protect billy . jack : which i did n't have to do . adam : that 's not my point . my point is you kept my identity a secret because you 're loyal to billy , not me , because at the end of the day , the only thing that matters is blood . jack : well , i 'll try to remember that the next time your father turns on you . adam : my father and i are fine . jack : oh , i 'm well aware of your new allegiance . i 'm also aware of your latest endeavor . adam : you know about the lawsuit ? jack : did you think i would n't know about that ? chelsea : uh , lawsuit ? what are you talking about ? jack : oh , yeah . victor is suing jabot -- more specifically , billy , but i 'm sure victor does n't mind bringing the rest of us down with him . chelsea : adam wo n't let that happen . jack : that 's why i 'm here . i want you to tell victor to drop this suit . chelsea : of course he will . adam : no . no , i 'm not gon na do that . jack , the lawsuit was my idea . kevin : i checked all the international flights leaving genoa city . marisa and luca flew to majorca . noah : spain ? kevin : mm - hmm . they checked in to a hotel a few hours ago . the area is really high - end . the hotel is five - star . noah : oh , that 's great . i do n't really care about their accommodations . kevin : you will when i tell you what else i found . mariah : so , tell us . kevin : there 's a school not far from where marisa and luca are staying , and at that school there is a 5-year - old girl named ava registered . mariah : nice work ! kevin : i told you it 's a process . noah : kevin , look -- i 'm really sorry about coming down on you so hard . kevin : you do n't sound sorry . noah : i 'm sorry . this is great . maybe luca 's telling the truth . maybe he 's taking marisa to find her daughter . kevin : yeah , well , look at what else i found out . noah : what the hell ? luca : marisa , we must go . marisa : i , um -- i , uh ... like your teddy bear . i bet he 's been with you since you were born . that 's why he looks so loved . is he your favorite ? ava : yes . my mommy gave him to me . marisa : [ crying ] ava : why are you crying ? sage : i 'm sorry you 're in so much pain , nick . i do n't know what to say . nick : say you 'll come home . sage : i - i need time . nick : i know what you said . but i can not stay away from you . sage : nick , please . nick : no . no more excuses . it 's not working for either one of us . i love you , and i know you still love me , too . sage : of course i still love you . nick : christian died . our love does n't have to die with him . i do n't want that . sage : i do n't want it , either . nick : i want my wife back . i want us together ... now . sage : [ sighs ] billy : i do n't need jack fighting my battles for me , especially with victor . i can hold my own with that ... rusty old suit of armor . phyllis : i have no doubt . billy : thank you . at least somebody has faith in me . phyllis : jack believes in you , billy . billy : then he should listen to me . he should save himself from the rest of the family and cut me loose and walk away . phyllis : you 're right . he should . jack : it was your idea to sue my family , after everything i did for you ? adam : jack , you 've always had my back . jack : and now you 're sticking a knife in mine ? ! adam : you 're my friend . jack : friends look out for each other ! adam : that 's what i 'm doing , jack . jack : by filing a lawsuit that could bankrupt my company ? adam : my father wanted way more than to just bankrupt jabot . he was out for blood -- specifically , abbott blood , more specifically , yours ! and he 'd secured the means to get it . jack : what does that mean ? adam : luca santori 's family made a major investment in newman enterprises . now , i have it on good authority that my father was gon na use that money to exact his revenge on the abbotts . jack : so , this was your compromise ? adam : i convinced my father to take up his disagreements with you in court . he loved the idea of having the law on his side , he loved the idea of jabot suffering major financial loss , and he loved the idea of jabot suffering public humiliation . jack : oh , i 'm sure he did . adam : let me tell you what he does n't know . i 've got a built - in exit strategy for you . chelsea : and what is that ? adam : all you got to do is cut billy loose . jack , you let him take the fall . [ next_on ] noah : luca has been lying to you . something about the story about ava -- it does n't add up . chelsea : do you really hate billy that much that you would actually try to turn his own brother against him ? ashley : $ 50 million to make this go away ? ! victor : you had a zero to that .Summarize.[/INST]luca tells marisa that he does n't know exactly where ava is but he hired an investigator to find her . marisa gets angry and leaves . when she comes back she eavesdrops as the private investigator tells luca where he found ava . marisa sneaks off to this location and sees ava . luca arrives and urges marisa not to approach their daughter because she might be scared . marisa approaches her anyway and begins to cry . sage tells adam and chelsea that she did n't fall in love with adam newman , she fell in love with gabe bingham and adam looked like him . she says she does n't want to wear out her welcome and agrees to move in next door when adam offers . chelsea gets the sense there is more to sage and adam 's relationship than friendship . nick and noah give each other advice . nick thinks noah should give marisa time and noah thinks nick should not be away from sage at this time . later , sage arrives to tell nick she is moving out but nick says he needs to be with her and he thinks she needs him too . they kiss . noah finds kevin at the coffee house and complains that kevin has n't made finding ava a priority . on the computer , kevin finds out where luca and marisa flew to , that there is a school nearby with a student named ava but something is n't right . mariah tells noah that she does n't trust dr. anderson . jack and billy argue about the lawsuit against jabot that billy caused by relaunching the paragon project . jack tells billy to stay out of his way while he tries to clean up the mess billy caused . jack goes to adam to ask him to drop the lawsuit . adam says he wo n't do that but he has a way for jack to come out unscathed . jack has to let billy take the fall .</s> | 18,732 |

[ scene_break ] chad : take your lousy threats and get out of here . and i 'm not just talking about the seascape . i want you to leave harmony . i never want to see your face around here again . vincent : ooh . that 's not the way you were talking to me the other night , honey . chad : no , do n't you ever call me that again . now , i 'm warning you , leave now . vincent : you see , you 've got it backwards . i 'm the one calling the shots now , and if i decide that i want to tell whitney about you and me and our love affair , then that 's exactly what i 'm going to do . there 's nothing you can do about it . chad : god help me , i 've had enough . vincent : uh - uh . you know , i would n't do that if i were you , not unless you want to draw everyone 's attention to our lovers ' quarrel . is that what you want ? [ scene_break ] whitney : ok , let 's just -- let 's just think about this for a second , ok ? let 's say the blackmailer goes through with what he 's threatening to do . would it be so bad if ethan really knew that he was little ethan 's father ? i mean , really . theresa : under any other circumstances i would love to tell ethan the truth , but i ca n't , not when my brothers ' futures are at stake . i mean , you know , whitney . i have told you , miguel could go to prison for fox 's attempted murder . and luis -- he could get the death penalty for rae 's homicide . whitney : i know , but ethan is representing them . he may be able to get them off without your influence , honey . theresa : he may not . he also told me that i need all the crane money and power i have as head of the empire to protect my brothers . i 'm going to do what this blackmailer wants to get him off my back , and that 's to marry jared . i just hope i have the strength to go through with it .

[ scene_break ] whitney : what , are you checking to see if judge reilly 's on the way to the hospital now ? theresa : my phone is dead . well , ca n't talk to ethan , so that 's a good thing . whitney : well , why would ethan be calling you ? it 's not like he knows you 're going to marry jared tonight . theresa : no , but he checks in with updates on luis and miguel . i just do n't think that i could do what i have to do tonight if i -- i heard his voice . whitney : ok , this -- this is crazy . i mean , really , this is tearing you apart . are you sure , are you absolutely sure that this is the right thing to do ? theresa : what choice do i have ? whitney : honey , there 's always a choice , especially when it comes to love . ok , you know what ? it 's time to clear the air . you need to come clean with ethan right now . just tell him that little ethan is his son , honey . that way you can fight the blackmailer together .

[ scene_break ] sheridan : hey . about fancy -- i do n't mean to pry , but can i ask you a question ? luis : anything . sheridan : well , what drew you to her ? what made you fall in love with her ? luis : where do i start ? sheridan : yeah , i know she 's very attractive . luis : well , it 's not just that . fancy has got the most wonderful , quirky sense of humor . she 's smart . she always surprises me . sheridan : how so ? luis : well , one minute she 's got her act together and she 's all confident , and then the next thing you know she 's way more vulnerable than she 'd ever want you to know . sheridan : hmm . luis : in a way , she actually reminds me of you . sheridan : that 's funny . luis : why 's that ? sheridan : well , after i met chris , when i thought you were dead and thought i 'd never see you again , he had this inner strength . that 's what drew me to him . he reminded me of you . luis : wow . i , uh -- i never knew that . sheridan : i never even thought about it until now . it 's almost as if we -- what 's that quote from that cowboy movie ? we just ca n't quit each other , can we ? [ luis laughs ] luis : yeah , i -- i guess . it 's like no matter what happens we 're always still a huge part of each others ' lives . [ scene_break ] chris : now , you and sheridan are both cranes by birth . you have access to more places than anyone else in this town . fancy : that 's true , i guess , but i still do n't think she 'd stash him here on the grounds . chris : what about the crane industrial park ? i mean , that place is huge . there 's got to be an open office or two . fancy : that 's true , but if luis is there somewhere , it could just as well be theresa who 's helping him . i mean , she 's the one with all the keys to the crane industries kingdom . fancy : oh , that 's it . that 's it . i think we 've been on the wrong track . sheridan may be looking for luis , but 10 to one , theresa 's the one who hid him . [ scene_break ] theresa : i ca n't do it , whitney . i can not go to ethan . i mean , the blackmailer will follow through with his threats , my brothers will go to prison . no , i 'm going to do what he wants , and what he wants is for me to marry jared . whitney : but , theresa , what if you 're wrong ? what if the blackmailer is only bluffing ? you do n't know . theresa : i 'm not going to take that risk . these are my brothers we 're talking about , and i 'm not going to let their lives be destroyed because of me . no , i 'm just going to hope and pray that when they 're exonerated i can actually go to ethan and i can explain this craziness . whitney : but you 'll already be married to jared , theresa . theresa : yeah . i 've made a royal mess , i know it . you know , for once in my life , i do n't know how i 'm going to untangle myself . whitney : ok , that 's it . you know what you need to do ? you need to get something to eat before you go back to the hospital . theresa : no , i 'm not hungry . whitney : no , honey , seriously -- you have to . i mean , you have to . you have to have dinner with me and chad and valerie and vincent . come on , let 's go . theresa : no . why do n't i just get it to go ? whitney : no , honey , it 's ok . why do n't you just take this time to gather yourself before you go marry jared . come on . whitney : now , what are they over there talking about ? vincent : well , are you going to get me off your back and admit you love me ? do that and i wo n't tell whitney . whitney : tell whitney what ?

[ scene_break ] fancy : ha , that 's it . theresa must be the one who helped luis go underground . chris : you really think it was her and not sheridan ? fancy : well , it makes sense . she 's his sister . she 'd do anything to help him . chris : but sheridan could do the same thing . fancy : not really . i mean , she 's a crane just like i am , but theresa 's the one in charge as my grandfather 's widow . sheridan would have to cut through some red tape just like i would . theresa 's got easy access to everything owned by crane . chris : all right , supposing you 're right . you think that theresa found luis a place to hide and somehow sheridan found out ? fancy : that 's my guess . chris : how ? fancy : the same way we 're going to find out where he is -- through the crane database . if we can get beyond the password blocks , we can find luis , too . [ scene_break ] sheridan : when you think about it , it really is incredible that we have managed to come through so much together . luis : i know , and to have remained such good friends . sheridan : exactly . not too many people can come this close to getting married and manage to remain on speaking terms . luis : yeah . sheridan : well , i better get back to our dinner . sheridan : oh ! luis : you all right ? sheridan : oh , i 'm such a klutz . i burned myself ! luis : come on , come on . sheridan : ow , ow , ow ! luis : get under the sink . cold water , cold water . sheridan : ow , ow ! luis : ok ? sheridan : oh ! luis : shh , it 's all right . you 're going to be all right . sheridan : no , i 'm not . luis : sheridan , of course you are . sheridan : no , it 's not the burn . it 's marty . i miss him so much .

[ scene_break ] chris : well , if you 're right and sheridan is with luis , i 'm sure it 's only as an old friend trying to help . fancy : whatever you want to believe , chris . chris : look , fancy , i confronted sheridan about luis , ok ? yes , she does care for him . she even loves him , but it 's not a romantic love anymore . it 's a love that two people who shared a great deal feel for each other for the rest of their lives . fancy : mm - hmm , mm - hmm , whatever floats your boat . chris : you know what , we 'll see , if we find them together . fancy : we 'll both see . chris : anything ? fancy : no , not yet . i could use something to eat . chris : i 'll go get those sandwiches i made earlier from the kitchen . fancy : oh , that would be great . thanks . fancy : he can believe whatever he needs to . if sheridan 's with luis , it is not as an old friend .

[ telephone rings ] john : yeah ? oh . yeah , please , send him in . he 's got my fall line . thanks . you know , i assume that maya 's taking most of the risk here , but i agree . there 's got to be a bigger payoff somewhere . philip : well , there 's always that vial . although i know it does n't seem like much of a reward , does it ? john : hey . tek : just came from the lab . john : all right . what have you got for us ? tony : you know , i wo n't know what 's in that vial until i receive the laboratory analysis . now i acquired it through a business transaction . rex : but you would n't have it unless you thought it was valuable in some way . tony : you know , it 's not that i do n't trust you . of course , you 're my son . it 's just that until i get all the information at hand , i 'd rather keep my own counsel . rex : oh , my god . you say that like it 's all one thought . `` i trust you . you 're my son . `` is that the only reason ? tony : oh , wait a minute . i did n't mean it to sound like an indictment . i 'm grateful -- i 'm proud that you 're my son . rex : all right , well , you said last night that our lives are going to change forever . i pretty much like my life the way it is right now . tony : but you 've always been interested in bettering your life . rex : do you think i need to ? tony : well , i do n't think anybody 's life is perfect . mine certainly isn't . rex : it is n't ? i hope cassie and i are never a burden to you , father . tony : oh , no , no , no . what are you talking about , a burden ? you 're t e most important thing that ever happened to me in my life . and not just because of the financial gain of your invention . it 's more than just turning coal into diamonds . your invention is going to provide capital for very important work to benefit all mankind , and also for the family . rex : that 's all i ever wanted . and i know you 'll take good care of her . tony : her ? you mean your laser . yes . also , i know you recommended against air travel . that 's why i 'm having her sent on my yacht down to south america . i will escort her down there , and i will not take my eyes off her . rex : thank you . i should tell you before you go -- tony : what ? what is it ? rex : well , you 're aware that the prototype met a bad end . through circumstances beyond my control , it misfired and instigated the earthquakes recently experienced in salem . tony : my god , it 's that powerful ? rex : nothing to worry about . it was just trial and error . it wo n't happen again . tony : well , i hope not . you 're talking about an earthquake . rex : that 's why you have to be extremely careful . i mean , dad , if anything were to ever happen to you -- tony : no , no , no . no . marlena : sami , why on earth would you want to see tony ? `` tony will pay . `` you know what ? the last couple weeks , all that 's happened to you has been because tony wanted you to pay for a thing that does not even concern him . and he 's also been on pretty shaky moral ground himself . and tony will pay . but that 's not your responsibility . your responsibility right now is to take care of yourself and get better , and be around the opople who love you the most , especially will . and , honey , listen . if lucas gives you a problem about seeing will , please do n't get upset about it . just -- just get a hold of john or me or your dad , and we 'll take care of it . okay ?

john : and ? tek : it 's headed for south america . meanwhile , the dimera yacht 's being readied for sea . john : let me guess . same destination . tek : we 're going to track them both via spy satellite . philip : and i can do some legwork on this end -- see what i can find out through titan about my father 's shipping line and its cargo . john : all right , just do n't let victor know you 're asking questions . philip : yeah , i do n't want to be disowned . i also really do n't want my father to be a criminal . but if he is , i need to know . john : well , i hope to hell he 's clean . i want my half - brother to be the one running this operation , because i do n't have a relationship with him . philip : sure you do . you have a bad one . john : good point . aside from that , he 's family . it 's hard to deal with the fact that your own flesh and blood can cause so many people so much pain . therefore , i hope that my brother is the only one running this operation . tek : it would make ending it a whole lot simpler . john : yeah . unfortunately , i think my brother and i are going to have to take a little cruise in order for that to happen . tony : let 's see . what is the east side lab sending you , rex ? rex : it 's , uh , software for a project i 've been working on . god , i 've been waiting weeks for this . tony : oh , well , that 's good . that means you 're going to be very busy while i 'm gone . cassie : gone ?

cassie : i do n't know . everyone says i hurt people , too , so as far as i can see , lucas and i are perfect for each other . tony : i want you to understand that what i 'm going to ask you is more of a personal favor than a working assignment . lucas : well , i 'm honored you 'd ask me . tony : good . you know , cassie 's had some legal troubles lately . i would like you to keep a close eye on her while i 'm gone . lucas : sure . yeah , you can count on me . tony : good . i knew i could . by the way , i was surprised to see you when i came home . is n't this the day that sami 's being discharged from the hospital ?

lucas : yeah , yeah , i think she is . why ? tony : well , it just seems a little premature that she 'd be left home alone to take care of herself . i mean , i 'd hate for her to jeopardize her own recovery . lucas : what , you -- what , are you scared that she 's going to sue you or something ? tony : no , we 've had this conversation before . i only feel responsible to the extent that she injured herself in my home . lucas : yeah , well , do n't worry about it . when it comes to sami , it 's always my fault . tony : no , no , no . that 's not true . i feel i can open sami 's eyes to that which she ca n't see , even though it 's right in front of her eyes . brady : larry welch is dead . brady : look at this . nicole : really ? brady : yeah . it says there was some kind of freak accident when he was being transported to the maximum security prison . the vehicle exploded . victor : yes , his body was burned beyond recognition . brady : so , are you suspicious that he may not be dead ? victor : he better be dead -- for bo 's sake as well as his own . victor : could you pass the salt ? nicole : um ... in the unlikely event that i have a job to get to , i , uh , i better get moving . victor : what about breakfast ? nicole : oh , i 'm not hungry . i 'm going to go for my morning ride . brady : she all right ? victor : why would n't she be ? brady : granddad , i really do n't know how to say this , but do you really want your wife not to work ? withllll due respect , that sounds a little ... victor : what ? neanderthal - like ? would you want your wife working in a nightclub ? brady : at the nightclub . at a nightclub behind the scenes . victor : at night , when i would prefer to have her home with me . brady : well , are you going to keep her locked up forever , or what ? nicole : hey ! psst ! where the hell are you ? larry : pop goes the weasel . nicole : oh ! i 'm gon na pop you ! you damn neat gave me a heart attack . larry : yeah , well , i 'm going to have a heart attack unless you get me something decent to eat . nicole : you can satisfy every appetite you have as soon as youakake this money to buy a gun and blow away my husband . lucas : you know , i probably should n't be telling you this , but before he left , your father asked me to keep a close eye on you . cassie : good . so we have his blessing . lucas : uh , none for me , thank you . cassie : why ? lucas : why ?

tony : ah , yes , thank you . bart 's getting the last of my bags . then we should be underway . philip : you think he 's on the boat by now ? tek : if everything 's on schedule . and it better be . this is the most dangerous part of the mission . john 's out there without any backup . if tony finds him -- i do n't even want to go there . philip : should we try and establish contact ? tek : no ! we do n't want to distract him . every move that john makes right now has to be so very precise . we want this mission to be the end of tony dimera ... not of john black . and here he 's - he 's 1 player , right ?

you bet . sami , i have got your copy of your discharge instructions here . i want you to read them carefully for me . i 'll leave them , but they say to rest , and to rest ... oh , and rest . they want you to rest . now , are you sure that i ca n't get you something to eat ? i would n't mind . i -- well , i -- all righty . i know that being with will is the best medicine for you . and being in your own home and doing your own activities , just having life your way again . but you 're still my little girl , and i want to take care of you . that 's what i want to do . hey , listen to me . will 's going to be at camp all day , you know , so you 're going to be by yourself . i do n't want getting lonely or bored . you 've got to keep your mind active . that you have to do . sami ... no . nicole : guess what , victor . you 're married to a working girl now . victor : what ? brady : nicole , i said that i would -- nicole : you said you would handle it . i know , but why should you have to ? besides , it 's great news , and i want to be the one to tell him . victor : tell me what ? nicole : brady offered me a job . i 'm going to help him run the blue note . victor : when we got married , you left titan so i would n't have to be your boss . the blue note is part of the titan empire . ergo , you may not work there . nicole : no ? what 's t m matter ? you disapprove of nepotism ? what about your grandson brady ? he thinks i have great ideas . and you say you own the club . so why would n't you want it to be as successful as it can possibly be ? brady : oh , my god ! larry welch ! philip : john , i 'm sorry belle got involved . okay , i know i ve said that a hundred times . you know , but i did protect her . john : i realize that , philip , and i am very grateful . philip : so what 's she think about her dad being a spy ? john : she was upset that you knew something she didn't . philip : well , i 'm sorry about that , but it 's pretty tough to keep her totally out of this when this case affects her more than justbout everybody else . john : what do you mean ? philip : well , shawn 's working for maya . maya 's boss is tony dimera , who 's belle 's uncle . john : so , it all comes back to tony , does n't it ? tony : hmm . bart : for me ? ick . what is it ? tony : well , we 'll be certain once you send it to the lab for analysis . bart : and what about this light sabre thingamabob ? tony : it 's a laser ! now you have your next assignment . please , make sure you put that into something safe . it 's very expensive . bart : okedokey . hi . we 're just cleaning . tony : well , good morning . rex : good morning . what was that ? tony : what ? rex : that vial bart was carrying . like sands through the hourglass , so are the days of r lives . philip : i just do n't understand why a man as rich as tony dimera would smuggle diamonds . john : well , the ice on the boat was appraised at 400k . philip : even so , for a rich guy to take that kind of risk ... [ telephone rings ] john : yeah ? oh . yeah , please , send him in . he 's got my fall line . thanks . you know , i assume that maya 's taking most of the risk here , but i agree . there 's got to be a bigger payoff somewhere . philip : well , there 's always that vial . although i know it does n't seem like much of a reward , does it ? john : hey . tek : just came from the lab . john : all right . what have you got for us ? tony : you know , i wo n't know what 's in that vial until i receive the laboratory analysis . now i acquired it through a business transaction . rex : but you would n't have it unless you thought it was valuable in some way . tony : you know , it 's not that i do n't trust you . of course , you 're my son . it 's just that until i get all the information at hand , i 'd rather keep my own counsel . rex : oh , my god . you say that like it 's all one thought . `` i trust you . you 're my son . `` is that the only reason ? tony : oh , wait a minute . i did n't mean it to sound like an indictment . i 'm grateful -- i 'm proud that you 're my son . rex : all right , well , you said last night that our lives are going to change forever . i pretty much like my life the way it is right now . tony : but you 've always been interested in bettering your life . rex : do you think i need to ? tony : well , i do n't think anybody 's life is perfect . mine certainly isn't . rex : it is n't ? i hope cassie and i are never a burden to you , father . tony : oh , no , no , no . what are you talking about , a burden ? you 're t e most important thing that ever happened to me in my life . and not just because of the financial gain of your invention . it 's more than just turning coal into diamonds . your invention is going to provide capital for very important work to benefit all mankind , and also for the family . rex : that 's all i ever wanted . and i know you 'll take good care of her . tony : her ? you mean your laser . yes . also , i know you recommended against air travel . that 's why i 'm having her sent on my yacht down to south america . i will escort her down there , and i will not take my eyes off her . rex : thank you . i should tell you before you go -- tony : what ? what is it ? rex : well , you 're aware that the prototype met a bad end . through circumstances beyond my control , it misfired and instigated the earthquakes recently experienced in salem . tony : my god , it 's that powerful ? rex : nothing to worry about . it was just trial and error . it wo n't happen again . tony : well , i hope not . you 're talking about an earthquake . rex : that 's why you have to be extremely careful . i mean , dad , if anything were to ever happen to you -- tony : no , no , no . no . marlena : sami , why on earth would you want to see tony ? `` tony will pay . `` you know what ? the last couple weeks , all that 's happened to you has been because tony wanted you to pay for a thing that does not even concern him . and he 's also been on pretty shaky moral ground himself . and tony will pay . but that 's not your responsibility . your responsibility right now is to take care of yourself and get better , and be around the opople who love you the most , especially will . and , honey , listen . if lucas gives you a problem about seeing will , please do n't get upset about it . just -- just get a hold of john or me or your dad , and we 'll take care of it . okay ? you getting hungry yet ? no . you getting tired ? okay . i 'll go and let you rest . welcome home . mm , i love you so . and i 'll be back in a few hours to check on you in case you need anything at all . lucas : sami ? no , i was thinking about you . cassie : yeah , sure . lucas : come on , why would n't i be ? you 're so beautiful . cassie : i 'm what ? lucas : beautiful . tony : what is this ? love to cool down tek : all right , we got a lock on the cargo ship that maya 's using to transport the hot ice . how 's that for an oxymoron ? john : and ? tek : it 's headed for south america . meanwhile , the dimera yacht 's being readied for sea . john : let me guess . same destination . tek : we 're going to track them both via spy satellite . philip : and i can do some legwork on this end -- see what i can find out through titan about my father 's shipping line and its cargo . john : all right , just do n't let victor know you 're asking questions . philip : yeah , i do n't want to be disowned . i also really do n't want my father to be a criminal . but if he is , i need to know . john : well , i hope to hell he 's clean . i want my half - brother to be the one running this operation , because i do n't have a relationship with him . philip : sure you do . you have a bad one . john : good point . aside from that , he 's family . it 's hard to deal with the fact that your own flesh and blood can cause so many people so much pain . therefore , i hope that my brother is the only one running this operation . tek : it would make ending it a whole lot simpler . john : yeah . unfortunately , i think my brother and i are going to have to take a little cruise in order for that to happen . tony : let 's see . what is the east side lab sending you , rex ? rex : it 's , uh , software for a project i 've been working on . god , i 've been waiting weeks for this . tony : oh , well , that 's good . that means you 're going to be very busy while i 'm gone . cassie : gone ? where are you going ? tony : oh , i 'm just taking a short trip . i wish i could take you with me . all the years that we were separated , i hate leaving you behind . but you 're all grown , and i 'm sure you 're going to have a lot of fun without me . cassie : i hate for you to leave , too . tony : ha ha ha ha . cassie : oh , i 'm going to miss you so much . tony : oh , cassie , i 'm sorry . cassie : it 's okay . i know you would n't leave if you did n't have to . tony : well , i 'm only doing this trip for our family 's future . cassie : our future ? tony : well , yes . so we do n't have to rrrry . cassie : okay . well , i do n't want you to worry about me , either . me or rex . tony : you have so many people looking after you . rex : yeah . tony : so many people you can count on . rex : well , have a great trip . tony : thank you . rex : i hope it 's as productive as you envision it to be . tony : yeah . listen , do you mind ? i 'd like to speak to lucas alone . rex : sure . lucas : [ clears throat ] cassie : ahh ... rex : i saw you kissing lucas . cassie : tony didn't . rex : no , evidently he didn't . cassie : and you 're not going to say anything . rex : lucas hurts people , cassie . what do you want with him ? cassie : i do n't know . everyone says i hurt people , too , so as far as i can see , lucas and i are perfect for each other . tony : i want you to understand that what i 'm going to ask you is more of a personal favor than a working assignment . lucas : well , i 'm honored you 'd ask me . tony : good . you know , cassie 's had some legal troubles lately . i would like you to keep a close eye on her while i 'm gone . lucas : sure . yeah , you can count on me . tony : good . i knew i could . by the way , i was surprised to see you when i came home . is n't this the day that sami 's being discharged from the hospital ? lucas : yeah , yeah , she is . um , she should be home by now . tony : youefeft her with will unsupervised ? lucas : no , no , he 's at day camp . i 'm going to take him across the hall tonight . tony : oh , but sami 's alone ? lucas : yeah , yeah , i think she is . why ? tony : well , it just seems a little premature that she 'd be left home alone to take care of herself . i mean , i 'd hate for her to jeopardize her own recovery . lucas : what , you -- what , are you scared that she 's going to sue you or something ? tony : no , we 've had this conversation before . i only feel responsible to the extent that she injured herself in my home . lucas : yeah , well , do n't worry about it . when it comes to sami , it 's always my fault . tony : no , no , no . that 's not true . i feel i can open sami 's eyes to that which she ca n't see , even though it 's right in front of her eyes . brady : larry welch is dead . brady : look at this . nicole : really ? brady : yeah . it says there was some kind of freak accident when he was being transported to the maximum security prison . the vehicle exploded . victor : yes , his body was burned beyond recognition . brady : so , are you suspicious that he may not be dead ? victor : he better be dead -- for bo 's sake as well as his own . victor : could you pass the salt ? nicole : um ... in the unlikely event that i have a job to get to , i , uh , i better get moving . victor : what about breakfast ? nicole : oh , i 'm not hungry . i 'm going to go for my morning ride . brady : she all right ? victor : why would n't she be ? brady : granddad , i really do n't know how to say this , but do you really want your wife not to work ? withllll due respect , that sounds a little ... victor : what ? neanderthal - like ? would you want your wife working in a nightclub ? brady : at the nightclub . at a nightclub behind the scenes . victor : at night , when i would prefer to have her home with me . brady : well , are you going to keep her locked up forever , or what ? nicole : hey ! psst ! where the hell are you ? larry : pop goes the weasel . nicole : oh ! i 'm gon na pop you ! you damn neat gave me a heart attack . larry : yeah , well , i 'm going to have a heart attack unless you get me something decent to eat . nicole : you can satisfy every appetite you have as soon as youakake this money to buy a gun and blow away my husband . lucas : you know , i probably should n't be telling you this , but before he left , your father asked me to keep a close eye on you . cassie : good . so we have his blessing . lucas : uh , none for me , thank you . cassie : why ?

[ scene_break ] hope : i do n't even know what that means . what does that mean ? aiden : well , obviously , your daughter feels that she can say or do whatever she wants and get away with it . and i 'm getting the impression that you are the same way . you think you can extend your hand , be polite , even charming -- hope : oh , i do n't have a problem being rude , if that 's what you 'd prefer . aiden : i prefer that you be real . hope : what does that even mean ? seriously . i told you , i 'm sorry . i seriously , sincerely am so sorry that my daughter behaved in a way that upset your son . i do n't know what else you want me to do . aiden : i want you to tell me that you 're actually going to do something about it . hope : mr. jennings . aiden : mm - hmm . hope : that is what it is , is n't it ? aiden : that 's right . hope : uh , huh , well , this is what i plan on doing , before i condemn my daughter , i 'm gon na go home . i 'm gon na talk to my daughter and i 'm gon na hear her side of the story , and then , and only then , will i know how to handle this . aiden : [ laughs ] oh . okay , of course , which , translated into 21st century distracted - mommy speak , means you will make excuses for her . hope : you 're a jerk . aiden : otherwise , you 'd be forced you to admit that you have been a neglectful parent . hope : oh , my god , you are a such a jerk , but i 'm sure you already know that , do n't you ? aiden : i could n't care less what you think of me . hope : definitely not a gentleman . aiden : just keep your kid away from my son . hope : such a jerk . ugh !

[ scene_break ] abigail : ej ? did gabi kill nick ? did gabi kill nick , and are you covering for her ? [ phone ringing ] ej : what ? abigail . do you really think that gabi is capable of murder ? hmm ? please , your friend gabi ? gabi . gabi , who asked you to be her baby daughter 's godmother ? murder ? abigail : what if nick was about to attack her , like you said he was ? it could have been easily out of self - defense . ej : but it was n't . i told you . i turned up , he ran away scared with his tail between his legs . he 's embarrassed by his behavior , that 's all . that 's the reason he has n't been in touch with his family . abigail : you said that you heard recently that nick was doing really well in new york . ej : mm - hmm . abigail : who did you hear that from ? ej : oh , mm , i 'm not sure i remember exactly . samantha probably , i 'd imagine . i think she heard it from maggie . what ? abigail : i think that julie is right . i do n't think that nick is the one sending any of those texts . and if everything is true that you and gabi have said , then you two were the last to see him . last to see him alive . ej : oh , for goodness sake , abigail , please . you keep assuming nick 's dead ! abigail : i do n't know what to assume , ej . all i know is that you do n't want anyone asking any questions about nick , and you are trying so desperately to keep me from talking to hope . that 's -- that 's why you slept with me , is n't it ? hmm ? to shut me up . [ scene_break ] hope : i do n't even know what that means . what does that mean ? aiden : well , obviously , your daughter feels that she can say or do whatever she wants and get away with it . and i 'm getting the impression that you are the same way . you think you can extend your hand , be polite , even charming -- hope : oh , i do n't have a problem being rude , if that 's what you 'd prefer . aiden : i prefer that you be real . hope : what does that even mean ? seriously . i told you , i 'm sorry . i seriously , sincerely am so sorry that my daughter behaved in a way that upset your son . i do n't know what else you want me to do . aiden : i want you to tell me that you 're actually going to do something about it . hope : mr. jennings . aiden : mm - hmm . hope : that is what it is , is n't it ? aiden : that 's right . hope : uh , huh , well , this is what i plan on doing , before i condemn my daughter , i 'm gon na go home . i 'm gon na talk to my daughter and i 'm gon na hear her side of the story , and then , and only then , will i know how to handle this . aiden : [ laughs ] oh . okay , of course , which , translated into 21st century distracted - mommy speak , means you will make excuses for her . hope : you 're a jerk . aiden : otherwise , you 'd be forced you to admit that you have been a neglectful parent . hope : oh , my god , you are a such a jerk , but i 'm sure you already know that , do n't you ? aiden : i could n't care less what you think of me . hope : definitely not a gentleman . aiden : just keep your kid away from my son . hope : such a jerk . ugh !

[ chuckling ] nailed it , did n't i ? [ scene_break ] kate : nick , you and gabi are so young . what you 're thinking of doing would be a lot for anyone . nick : we 're not just `` thinking `` about it , kate . i was at an altar with gabi about to get married . you know , nobody had a problem with me being gabi 's husband until will changed his mind about wanting to be part of the baby 's life . rafe : okay , okay . we understand that . we 're not standing here , telling you to change your plans for the future , okay ? kate : we 're just asking you to be careful . nick : you 're asking me to give up gabi . rafe : no . no . no , no , no , no , no , dead wrong . kate : it 's absolutely not true . nick , we 're just suggesting that you try taking things more slowly . rafe : we know you love gabi , right ? what difference is it gon na make if you wait a while longer to get married ? nick : you already asked us to wait longer . and now you 're asking us to wait longer . oh , you -- you want us to wait until the baby 's born , do n't you ? kate : yes . nick : well , um , you can forget it , okay ? i respect both of you , but i promised gabi a great life , and i intend to give that to her sooner rather than later . so ... kate : okay , so that went well . [ scene_break ] kristen : no , i do n't have feelings for brady . stefano : kristen , please . do not play games with me . kristen : i 'm not playing games with you . just listen to me , okay ? if i do manage to convince brady that he ca n't live without marrying me and i get him to the altar and i dump him , what 's the point when john 's in europe indefinitely ? i mean , if john 's not there to witness it , then what 's to be gained ? stefano : ah , i see . so you think that it would be wrong to hurt brady , huh ? i do n't understand that . because it never stopped you before -- why would it stop you now ? [ scene_break ] daniel : i 'm not gon na just stand here and trash jennifer . i 'm not gon na do it . brady : okay , but -- daniel : but , um , you know , let 's just say that there was an issue that came up -- a pretty significant issue -- and she 's really slow to acknowledge it . brady : ah . so you are waiting for her to make the first move , and you 're ticked off that she has n't done that ? daniel : i 'm not waiting . brady : daniel , look , i do n't know the details of this whole thing , but i know what jennifer means to you . that was pretty evident in chicago when we were out there . all i 'm saying if there 's an issue , just bring it up and talk about it , resolve it . daniel : it 's not that easy , man . brady : yeah , it is . it is actually . you be direct and you tell her what 's on your mind . daniel , you 're not in high school anymore . talk to her . [ scene_break ] jennifer : excuse me . nicole : you look worse than i feel , and that 's really saying something . it 's chloe ... is n't it ? you did n't take my advice , did you ? jennifer : nicole , i really need to go . nicole : wait , jennifer , hang on . what did chloe get on you that she then turned around and used as a sword over your head ? jennifer : you know , i really do n't wan na talk about this right now . nicole : all right , you know what your problem is ? jennifer : oh , god ! save me . nicole : yeah , he does n't really answer that quickly . trust me . listen . your problem is you 're too nice . jennifer : really ? you did n't used to think that about me . nicole : no , no . you can definitely hold your own . but the problem is that you -- you refer back to your true nature -- the good girl . and that 's when people try to take advantage of you , which is what chloe is doing right now . jennifer : well , you know what , i took your advice and it backfired on me . nicole : really ? jennifer : yeah , really , because i lied . okay , nicole ? i lied . i lied to chloe about where daniel and i were going because i thought that she would cry wolf the way she did the night before . so then i lose my phone . no ! i leave my phone at home , daniel 's phone breaks , his son spikes a fever . i tell chloe that we 're at a different club , and that 's when everything completely goes crazy . nicole : ooh . that 's an unfortunate circumstance . however , did daniel go through the roof ? jennifer : oh , no , he thought it was a hoot that i lied to him and that his son was so sick and that he was unreachable because of me . nicole : whoa , are he and chloe -- jennifer : what ? no . no . you do know that i do n't back down in a fight ... as nice as you think i am . nicole : yeah . and i ... i do know how much you love daniel . you always have , have n't you ? jennifer : why do you say that ? nicole : because even -- even when you got back together with jack ... you still could n't turn your feelings off for daniel , could you ? jennifer : no , i could n't . nicole : so how did you do it ? how could you walk away from daniel when you cared for him as much as you did ? [ scene_break ] chloe : here you go -- an estimate to clean out all the air ducts in this place . victor : $ 80,000 to vacuum a pipe ? chloe : hey , it 's for all of us , victor -- you , maggie , the staff too . i notice your eyes get watery easily . do you have a mold allergy ? victor : let us review . you would like me to turn my house inside out and upside down because you 're concerned about parker , a child who i am not to go near because of my choice of dry cleaners , where , i might add , there is not a solution in existence that can wash away the strain and stain that you have put upon my family up until this very moment . chloe : hmm . there it is . i try to have a simple conversation about better overall health , and you seize the opportunity to cut me down which , i might add , you 've been waiting to do since the moment that parker and i got here . victor : you bet your sweet life i 've been waiting . you accuse my son philip of rape ... falsely ? do n't bat an eye over that little malicious lie . but that little transgression pales to the way that you broke brady 's heart with your stiletto heels , forcing him into drugs . chloe : oh , sure . blame me because brady 's weak . because philip has no character or ambition and , even when born with that gigantic silver spoon in his mouth , ca n't seem to make a decent life for himself . victor : that 's it ! get out ! i try to make accommodations for you , but you just pushed me too far . get out of this house ! i do n't wan na see you in this house again , do you understand me ? out ! out right now ! chloe : [ sighs ] woe is me . wherever shall i go now ? [ scene_break ] jennifer : how did i walk away from daniel ? that 's not an easy ... question to answer . but i 'm telling you it was n't about loving one man more than the other . my love for jack was different . you know , he was the father of my children , he was my family . and he worked so hard to get back to us . so i thought that it was a choice that i was gon na have to make , when really it was n't a choice at all . and ... daniel recognized that , and that 's when -- that 's when he pulled back . but i guess the simple answer to that is ... going back to jack and leaving daniel was really tough . but it was right . it was right for me and it was right for my children . and sometimes you have to do the difficult thing . i need to go . i 'm sorry , i do n't know if that made any sense at all , but ... nicole : okay . yeah , that made more sense than you know . [ scene_break ] daniel : hmm ? i 'll tell you what we 're gon na do . you -- how about you sit right here , and you build daddy a little block tower , what do you think ? do you like that idea ? yeah , try the blocks , see what happens . or try that . all right , all right . ah . [ exhales ] okay . [ knocking on door ] daniel : [ groans ] who could it be ? i do n't know . chloe : [ sighs ] daniel : what are you -- chloe , what is going on ? chloe : victor threw me out . i 'm homeless . [ scene_break ] victor : put this where you think it 'll do the parish the most good . eric : i will . thank you . on a personal note , i 'd like to say thank you for not pressing charges against nicole , who is also very grateful . i 'm sure you know that . victor : i 'm sure i do n't give a damn . eric : victor , you know nicole is trying to change her life . victor : yes , like every other bad - news bitch in the city . `` she wants to be a better person . cut her slack , give her a break . `` bull . eric : victor , i -- victor : eric , i know you 're a priest now , and i 'm sure you believe in a lot of miracles . but you 're supremely naive if you think that nicole walker is ever going to turn into a decent human being . that is one miracle that 's never gon na happen . [ scene_break ] rafe : well ... nick sure is devoted to my sister . guess that 's the good news . kate : it 's kind of a desperate devotion , do n't you think ? it 's almost as if he believes that he 's going to lose her at any moment . rafe : yeah , well ... i think she loves him as much as he loves her , so ... maybe he 'll see that in time . what ? kate : oh , i was just -- i was just thinking . i was thinking how unexpected it is that my gay grandson made a baby with your sister and the two of us ended up in the same corner . [ scene_break ] will : i shot ej , and you went to prison for me . [ stops recording ] nick : i 've got everything i need now to get what i want . [ scene_break ] kate : well , maybe i should go look for will . maybe i could gauge a little more clearly what his mindset is on this whole state of affairs . rafe : i do n't think that 's such a good idea . kate : really ? rafe : mm - hmm . kate : afraid sami might find out ? rafe : well , yeah . sure . she is n't exactly thinking rationally . kate : that 's a shocker . [ both laugh ] kate : well , i suppose we 've done enough damage for one day . i should get back to work . rafe : yeah , i better get to the station . [ scene_break ] lucas : hey , eric , i -- well , this is just great . my day just keeps getting better and better , does n't it ? nicole : glad to be of service . eric is n't here , so get out . lucas : i told him this would n't work . i told him , he did n't listen to me . he said everything would be cool , but here we are . nicole : what are you babbling about ? lucas : when eric asked me to serve on the church board , i said , `` no problem , i 'd love to do it . `` as long as it did n't mean , you know -- nicole : it did n't mean running into me ? lucas : exactly , running into you . i have a problem with that . nicole : oh , really ? why ? why , lucas ? do you think you 're better than me ? you do n't think i belong here ? [ scene_break ] jennifer : so i apologized to daniel , but i 'm not really sure if that was enough for him . maggie : well , if he is ... upset ... i 'm sure he wo n't hold onto it for long . jennifer : i do n't know . i left him a message . never heard back from him . i went to his place . we saw each other . he never even acknowledged the call . so i think he is holding on to it . maggie : well , maybe you should ask him . jennifer : well , the nurse at the hospital told me she handed daniel his messages , he read through all of them , and then he just threw them in the garbage . maggie : okay , i hear you and i sympathize . the -- the holding on is hard with people that you care about . but i am confused , and here 's why . your story makes sense . your actions do n't . [ scene_break ] chloe : i made a few simple requests , and he lost his mind on me ! daniel : well , what kind of requests ? here you go . chloe : childproofing the house , basically , all for parker . just child safety locks on cabinets , things like that . victor instantly got furious . he told me to leave and never come back again . i think he 's just been looking for any lame excuse to throw me out of that house , and he found one . daniel : okay , you know what , i will , uh -- i will talk to him . chloe : there 's no point . he 's not gon na listen to you or anyone else about this , daniel . and i ca n't really move into a place of my own until the first of the month . i mean , can you imagine parker and me living out of a suitcase in a motel in between ? i just -- i do n't know how i 'm gon na make this work logistically or financially . daniel : okay , you , um -- you ca n't . so look , why do n't the two of you move in here until you find your own place ? chloe : seriously ? oh , my god , that is the most generous offer ever . daniel : well , i 'm not being generous , it 's , you know , it 's for ... it 's for our son . he already likes being here . chloe : yeah ! you 're right . he loves this place . it makes perfect sense . it more than makes sense . daniel : yeah . chloe : thanks . daniel : um ... you know , i , uh -- i need to go take care of some things just to make sure this works out . and , uh , so you , uh , you know , unpack your stuff , you hang here with parker , and i 'll be back in a bit , okay ? chloe : okay . daniel : and you , my man , i will see you in a bit , okay ? where 's the love ? yeah . all right . chloe : okay , thanks again . bye . why did n't mommy think of this sooner , my angel ? [ gasps ] this was perfect ! so easy .

[ scene_break ] jennifer : i do n't know what you mean . what am i doing wrong ? maggie : well , you 're here with me , not with daniel . that 's what you 're doing wrong , jennifer . did it ever occur to you that maybe getting a piece of paper with a message that says `` call me `` on it -- it might not have been enough ? jennifer : well -- maggie : listen . maybe saying how you feel in person to the person that you feel it for has a little more meaning . jennifer : yes , i understand that . [ both laughing ] maggie : so is it so hard ? jennifer : no , it 's not . i was having daniel -- i was waiting for him to do all the work . maggie : hallelujah ! jennifer : yes , and that note -- i chickened out , did n't i ? maggie : yes . but it 's correctable , that 's the good news . jennifer : yes , and you 're amazing because you always figure everything out for me . as usual ! maggie : oh ! jennifer : mm , i love you . maggie : i 'm here to serve . okay , you know what , you ca n't waste any time . go . come on . jennifer : right now ? maggie : right now , yeah . jennifer : and see daniel . maggie : talk to him . tell him how you feel . jennifer : i like how you think . maggie : i do too !

[ scene_break ] jennifer : how did i walk away from daniel ? that 's not an easy ... question to answer . but i 'm telling you it was n't about loving one man more than the other . my love for jack was different . you know , he was the father of my children , he was my family . and he worked so hard to get back to us . so i thought that it was a choice that i was gon na have to make , when really it was n't a choice at all . and ... daniel recognized that , and that 's when -- that 's when he pulled back . but i guess the simple answer to that is ... going back to jack and leaving daniel was really tough . but it was right . it was right for me and it was right for my children . and sometimes you have to do the difficult thing . i need to go . i 'm sorry , i do n't know if that made any sense at all , but ... nicole : okay . yeah , that made more sense than you know .

[ scene_break ] ed : so that 's pretty much it . and it would be a couple of days of recovery . alan : just a couple of days ? that 's all ? ed : well , a bone marrow transplant is fairly common . it 's the amount we will be removing from your body that makes it dangerous . and it 's the first couple of hours after the surgery that pose the most risk . but if you get through that , and your body ... if it is responding well , than you could be on your feet , moving around in a couple of days . i do n't want to belabor this point , alan , but this would be the first time anyone has ever performed this procedure . alan : so you 're saying that i would be a guinea pig . ed : well , our lab rat . alan : for my boy , i want to do it . ed : you 're a brave man , alan . now we only have one obstacle left . that 's phillip . alan : i will take care of phillip .

[ scene_break ] nora : wow ! what the hell was that all about ? why was he saying all those things ? i 'm assuming they 're the rantings and ravings of a bitter and angry teenager , but i mean , what was that all about ? i thought we 'd seen the last of mr. hyde after his operation , but wow . i mean , it 's getting worse , bo . it 's getting much worse . that tops anything he ever said when he was in his wheelchair . bo : mmm . nora : i mean , what 's going on here ? where is this all coming from ? we have to do something about this . we ca n't just let this slide . i 'm thinking maybe we pull him off the basketball team or -- well , he can kiss that internship at b.e . good - bye , that 's for damn sure . i 'm sure we 'll hear about it from clint and stuff like that , but that 's okay , because we ca n't let this slide . you do agree , right , bo ? bo , we have to nip this in the bud , right ? bo : nora . nora : what is it ? what is this ? where is this all coming from ? why is he saying all these things ? why would he say these things , these incredibly hurtful things ? why would he say that you 're sleeping with inez ? bo : it was n't a lie . nora : what do you mean ? bo : matthew did n't make it up . it 's true . | when nora comes home form the hospital , she immediately informs bo that she wants to find out who ran her and rex off the road . they are not aware that it was matthew , but he figures it out . yet , he protests that his parents need to realize that the cops ca n't do much an should n't waste their time knowing how effective they are when a criminal like eddie ford kidnaps the d.a . yet the police commissioner is not even aware , much less able to do anything about it . and he asks his dad just what he was doing when his mom was tied up by eddie . when bo is alone with his son , he demands to know what his problem is . matthew indicates that he knows that bo was with inez the night his mom got kidnapped . he saw it with his own two eyes . nora overhears and demands to know how her son could allege such vicious things . but bo admits that it 's true . he did sleep with inez . brody , jessica , natalie and john are all at a lamaze class together . but john is clearly distracted . vivian takes natalie aside and asks if she is ok given the secret she 's keeping from john , that brody is the father of her baby . daren attempts to get destiny to reconcile with her parents / grandparents and come home . but she refuses and it appears she does not appreciate daren interfering in her family 's business . rex admits to kelly that he is not about to investigate aubrey for her because it will only lead to trouble . but there appears to be suspicion about the secret phone calls aubrey has whenever she is alone . | <s>[INST] jessica : hee hee hoo hoo hee hee hoo hoo . brody : ha ha hoo hoo ha ha hoo hoo . natalie : hee hoo hee hoo . jessica : no , no . hee hee hoo . brody : hoo hee hoo hee hoo hee . jessica : okay , that 's enough for now . brody : i 'm glad i do n't have to do this breathing thing , too . jessica : yeah , but the whole point of it is for you to know how to do the breathing so you can coach me . brody : hey , john 's a take - charge kind of guy . maybe he should coach all of us . natalie : well , the take - charge kind of guy has to get here first .

'cause he 's not learning this deceitful behavior at home , that 's for sure . britt : well , your driver 's taken the kids back to school , so the crisis is over . let 's enjoy my day off . we have the stables all to ourselves . nikolas : [ laughs ] commissioner , agent sloane . dr. obrecht : britta , i am glad you are here . britt : look , i already agreed to support your investigation to my father 's disappearance , so i do n't know what else you expect me to do . dr. obrecht : only that you act as a witness . nikolas : to what ? dr. obrecht : your father 's rescue . britt : what ? agent sloane : the commissioner claims that cesar faison is alive , imprisoned in these stables . nikolas : [ chuckles ] uh , where ? there 's people coming in and out of here all day long , taking care of the horses . there 's no way that he 's in here without anyone knowing . anna : oh , just depends how well - versed you are in the network of catacombs in the area . there are caves and pits gouged into the rocks , abandoned wells , all naturally soundproof . some even large enough to make an acceptable jail cell . you just have to know where to look . alexis : `` yes or no . `` what the hell does that mean ? either luke is responsible or he is n't . julian : [ sighs ] not in this case . alexis : what does that mean ? stop with the double - speak . would you please stop talking in coded language ? is n't this your opportunity to finally tell me the truth ? julian : i am . alexis : fine . then say it in a way that us simpletons can understand . you say that he is n't a bad guy but yet he is a bad guy . so , what is he , all right ? he 's my friend . he 's lulu 's father . julian : would you listen to me ? alexis : then actually say something . julian : yes . luke spencer is all those things . the problem is , is that the man we 're talking about is not really luke spencer . vesper : did you get what you needed , lord ashton ? larry : oh , yes . it 's all right here . thanks for your assistance . vesper : we appreciate your business . sam : hi . vesper : mr. and mrs. zackin . i did n't realize you were still here . sam : yeah , um , you know , i - i got all the way down to the car , and i totally realized i forgot to put something in the safe - deposit box . patrick : may we go back in ? vesper : sure . absolutely . [ door beeps ] patrick : you think this is worth it ? ashton obviously took whatever he needed out of the box . sam : i do n't know . maybe he did leave something behind . tracy : jerry jacks working with ashton ? oh , mr. jacks really must be desperate , but it makes more sense than luke working with him . lulu : i do n't see how this all fits together . jerry is demented , but he 's smart . what would he want with an idiot like larry ? no offense . tracy : none taken . we have to figure out what 's going on here . ashton saying `` the luke problem `` indicates that maybe luke is still being held captive by jerry jacks and might be outliving his usefulness . lulu : that 's one possibility . tracy : you have another take on it ? lulu : it 's also possible that my father is an active participant in this conspiracy and that `` the luke problem `` is his cover being blown . tracy : lulu , that is a theory that ned would come up with , but not you . lulu : i want to believe that my father is a victim in all this . tracy : he is a victim . we have to keep the faith . he needs our help . luke : who did this ? and why ? why 'd he do this ? revenge ? he wanted revenge ? why did n't he just kill me ? why go through all this ? what have i done ? what have i done to deserve ... this ?

[ grunts ] bingo . bingo . patrick : what do you think is on it ? sam : i have no idea . but what the hell do you think it has to do with faison ? dr. obrecht : you buried cesar in that hole ? ! left him sealed up in the dark ? that was savage ! barbaric ! anna : well , he 's alive , is n't he ? agent sloane : that remains to be seen . britt : how could he survive in there ? anna : well , robert saw to it that intermittently faison was brought food and water , but he was never in any danger of losing his life . dr. obrecht : only his mind . nikolas : the world 's better off . agent sloane : let 's get that hatch open and get him out of there . luke : come on , baby . open for daddy . [ lock clicking ] luke : yeah . nikolas : [ grunts ] dr. obrecht : cesar ! mein liebe ! it 's too dark . i ca n't see anything . [ lock clicking ] luke : yeah .

[ voice breaking ] cesar ! agent sloane : well ? britt : is he alive ? dr. obrecht : it 's empty . there is no one down there . alexis : nothing you 're saying here is -- is amounting to anything . this does n't make any sense . what do you mean luke is not luke ? julian : because ... [ sighs ] someone else took luke 's place . fluke : [ sighs ] [ next_on ] lulu : ( to tracy , patrick , and sam ) how is faison going to solve our problem ? nikolas : if faison was here , he 's gone now . tj : ( throwing something against the wall , with molly nearby ) everything was a lie ! man : hello , jordan . alexis : ( to julian ) you are saying there are two luke spencers ? fluke : ( holding a gun on luke ) i would n't do that if i were you , spencer . | sam and patrick go to larry and jerry 's safe deposit box while lulu distracts larry at the quartermaine estate . lulu confronts larry about luke . lulu tells tracy that larry is working with jerry jacks and that patrick and sam overheard them discussing their `` luke spencer problem . `` they wonder if luke is a hostage or a participant who has outlived his usefulness . patrick and sam pretend that they are newly married and interested in opening a safe deposit box . sam finds another locked box inside the safe deposit box , but she does n't have time to get it open before they hear larry arriving . for the benefit of the banker , patrick tells larry that sam is his wife . they bide their time around a corner until larry leaves with a briefcase , and then they go back in and open the box . it contains a picture of faison . | <s>[INST] agent sloane : if i were you , get yourself a lawyer . anna : no , no . that wo n't be necessary . nor will these legal proceedings . dr. obrecht : and why is that ? anna : because faison is alive . agent sloane : excuse me ? anna : yeah . cesar faison is not dead . dr. obrecht : do n't believe her . anna : it 's the truth . dr. obrecht : she 's stalling . trying to buy herself time to arrange her flight from justice . anna : no . unlike you , i do n't run . not from anybody . faison is alive , and i can prove it . emma : spencer , what are we doing here ? we 're supposed to be in school . spencer : we do n't need school . leave school for the townies , like cameron . emma : if cam 's a townie , so am i . spencer : do n't be silly . aunt elizabeth is a plain , old nurse . your father 's a brain surgeon . emma : that wo n't stop my dad from killing me if he finds out i 'm here . patrick : well , this is a first . i never expected to be breaking into a safe- deposit box . sam : well , this is small - time compared to breaking into the wsb clinic . patrick : for starters , we did n't know the wsb was involved in crichton - clark when we did that . and second of all , it did n't go so well . we had big men with guns chasing us . sam : yes , we did , but practice makes perfect . and i happen to have a key to the safe - deposit box , so whatever is in there will explain -- hopefully explain the luke spencer problem . we just have to keep larry away long enough so we can get into the box . patrick : and here 's to lulu providing time . lulu : do n't even think of leaving . larry : will you correct her ? tracy : correct her ? larry : well , never mind . i 'll do it myself . hey , you , wench , servant , know thy place ! lulu : i 'm not a servant . you already met me , you jackass . tracy : that 's my stepdaughter , lulu . larry : oh , well , you must have changed your hair . i stand corrected . now , if you 'll excuse me , i have an appointment . lulu : you 're gon na have to miss it . larry : may i ask why ? lulu : you still have to answer for my father . julian : [ exhales deeply ] alexis . thank god . alexis : you can thank your son . he 's the one that told me you wanted to see me . he said it was important . julian : yeah , well , it 's important . i would n't waste your time . alexis : fine . so let 's hear it . what do you need to tell me ? dr. obrecht : is n't it enough you have toyed with me for a year ? have n't you had your fill ? ! just tell us you killed faison ! anna : no , i will do no such thing because i did n't . dr. obrecht : [ sighs ] she 'll say anything not to have to account for her actions before a court of law ! drag her into the spotlight ! anna : oh , you 're welcome to , but anything i say here will be exactly what i testify to in court . and you may find that this coup that you 're angling for , you 'll end up being a victim of your own crusade . agent sloane : strange time to be offering career advice , commissioner . dr. obrecht : she 's manipulating you . do n't give her the chance . agent sloane : a lie now wo n't save her later . let 's hear it . anna : well , as obrecht said , it 's about a year ago that robert and i confronted faison in the stables at wyndemere on spoon island . spencer : emma , relax . where 's your sense of adventure ? emma : i left it at school . spencer : you 've been hanging around that goody - goody cameron for too long . nobody 's ever been hurt breaking a few rules . emma : you 're grounded for it all the time . spencer : look at me now ! i am great ! emma : i 'm not ! i could get in major trouble for cutting school . spencer : do n't worry . if anyone finds out , i 'll take the rap . i 'll throw myself on my sword for you . i 'll say i made you do it . emma : you kind of did . what for ? spencer : because i have to show you something , something that will change everything between us . julian : thank you for coming . i know it was n't an easy decision . alexis : your son made a good case . julian : [ chuckles ] you know , he 's thinking about going back into medicine . maybe he should be a lawyer instead . alexis : did you bring me down here to discuss your son 's career path ? julian : no . i guess you could say it 's what led me to being here . alexis : let me stop you right now . because if you 're angling for representation , you need to look somewhere else . ava is wanted for connie falconeri 's murder , and you 're being held for abetting her escape from the hospital . julian : i swear to you , i did not know -- alexis : i can not defend you . i have told you that i can have nothing to do with you if you are not completely honest with me , so we are wasting each other 's time . julian : yeah , i know what your condition was . i asked you here because i 'm ready to meet it . i 'll tell you everything . vesper : i apologize for keeping you waiting . i understand you 've just opened an account for a safe - deposit box . sam : we did . we actually just got married ! patrick : yeah , there 's a few things we want to stow away in safekeeping , so ... vesper : well , congratulations . that 's wonderful . i 'm happy to help you start off your married life . sam : thank you . vesper : i just need to check your i.d . against the forms you already filled out . sam : honey , you have that ? patrick : right here . there you go . vesper : excellent . patrick : [ clears throat ] vesper : well , everything appears to be in order , mr. and mrs. zackin . patrick : that 's it . sam : yes , that 's us . [ laughs ] vesper : i 'll leave you alone to complete your business . sam : thank you so much . okay . let 's get started . larry : as i have tried to explain to monica , tracy , to my son , to patrick , to hobson , to dobson , to cook 2 , and anybody else who would listen , i 've never met luke spencer . i do n't even know him besides what i 've read in the newspapers . lulu : i find your story hard to believe . larry : oh , really ? are you calling me a liar ? lulu : i 'm saying that you may know more than you 're letting on . larry : well , i do n't see the difference , and i think you 're bloody rude , and i 'm leaving ! lulu : maybe you crossed paths with my father and jerry jacks recently . where did you say you were staying ? larry : in rhossili , in wales . i was in the company of two charming young ladies . and if your father and this jerry what 's - his - name were in the vicinity , it 's news to me . a little help , please ? tracy : lulu , i want to find your father just as much as you do , but it 's obvious this souse is no help . first of all , he left port charles before your parents returned , and second of all , he 's deluded enough to think that two charming women inviting him back to their room is anything but an obvious trap . larry : thank you for that robust defense . lulu : maybe you met my father under other circumstances . i mean , dad uses aliases all the time . if you could just look at this photo . are you sure that you have never met this man ?

[ horse whinnies ] emma : so , why show it to me ? spencer : because i need you to see where it all began . emma : spencer , you 're not making any sense . where what all began ? spencer : the danger to you . the night i heard that man plotting against my uncle sonny . i did n't recognize him , but i recognized his boss , luke spencer . luke : incompetent punk . ca n't wait to wipe that stupid smile off your face .

[ phone beeps ] hope : thanks , gabi . i just got it . gabi : did she just say , `` curse `` ? abigail : what was that ? dario : it 's nothing you should worry about . abigail : well , you seem worried . dario : yeah , i 'll deal with it . abigail : dario , whatever you just heard 's got you shaken up , and , you know , i 'd appreciate it if you told me what it was . dario : when i was living in argentina , i got into a shady business deal and i made some enemies . i did n't know at the time , but they had ties to el fideo . abigail : the mexican drug lord . dario : i cost him a lot of money , and i was able to make it back to the states before he could get to me , but he has n't forgotten . and now he 's heard i 'm being -- i might be deported back to mexico . abigail : so he 's waiting for you so that he can take revenge ? dario : you know , i do n't know , this is all second - hand info , and i am not telling you this to put more pressure -- abigail : okay , but so -- dario : on you , abigail . abigail : when does this all happen ? when are they gon na force you to leave ? dario : i do n't know . it could probably happen at any moment . but , listen . whatever you decide , i will figure it out , and i promise , i will -- i 'll completely understand . okay ? abigail : mm . okay . look , i got to think -- i 'll just -- i 'll let you know . dario : yeah . abigail : soon as i can , okay ? dario : okay . [ dramatic music ] jj : i 'm not getting great reception in here . i 'm gon na go outside and see if i can get ahold of sonny . eli : well , i 've never seen you so quiet . no opinions on the gabi situation ? lani : only that i love hearing two guys argue over how a woman should behave . eli : that 's not what we 're doing . lani : i was here . you wanted to keep gabi away from chad , jj wanted to keep her away from here . it 's tough when they do n't listen , is n't it ? eli : look , we 're just trying to keep her safe . what 's wrong with that ? lani : gabi is gon na do whatever she wants . eli : yeah , that i 've noticed . lani : why did n't you go after her when she left ? eli : because i have a job to do here . i mean , it 's like you said . if she wants to run off and be with chad now that he 's gon na be single , what am i gon na do ? lani : well , that depends . i mean , how serious is your relationship ? eli : not very . lani : but you like her . eli : does it matter ? i mean , she 's in love with another guy . lani : yes , it matters , you dummy . look , if you want something more serious with her , then you got to let her know . eli : are you sure you 're not just saying this because -- lani : she 's jj 's ex and i want her out of the way ? look , that 's not a bad thing . but that 's not why i 'm pushing you towards her . eli : you sure ? lani : i 'm pushing you because you 're a huge pain , okay ? and she 's actually someone who can handle it . eli : thanks . lani : my point is , eli , you could be good together . okay ? but if you wait too long , it might be too late . you going to go find her ? eli : i need to check in with the local authorities . but i 'll see if i can track her down . you know , sometimes you 're not so bad . chloe : [ sighs ] dario : can i get you a bloody mary ? chloe : ugh . are you serious ? i still have a headache from yesterday 's drinking contest . dario : coffee , then ? chloe : ah , espresso . double . por favor . dario : double it is . any word on nicole and holly ? chloe : no , but i did just run into my ex , lucas , though , and he said that i 'm a horrible person who used a baby for selfish reasons . dario : that seems harsh . chloe : nicole hates me for trying to take holly , and it just seems like the whole rest of the world is on her side . dario : i do n't hate you . chloe : [ chuckles ] you do n't know me . dario : i know you well enough . i used to spy on you for deimos . chloe : oh . yeah . are you supposed to get points for that ? dario : well , i 'm saying i probably know you better than what you call your so- called friends . chloe : oh , yeah ? dario : yeah . chloe : what do you know about me ? dario : i 've seen enough of you to know that you 're not a horrible or selfish person . chloe : thank you . that 's really sweet of you to say . dario : yeah . [ laughter ] adrienne : abigail ? abigail : oh , hey , guys . hi . hi , ari . lucas : you okay ? abigail : yeah , i just ... got a lot on my mind . adrienne : your mom told me about you and chad breaking up . is there any possibility that -- abigail : no , no . i filed for divorce this week . adrienne : honey , i 'm so sorry . abigail : no , that 's okay . we 'll talk about it later . okay . hey , ari , where 's your mommy , huh ? arianna : in greece . lucas : oh ! actually it 's -- abigail : greece ? lucas : kind of late . we should get you to school , little one . um , i 'll stop by later so we can talk , okay ? adrienne : oh , talk ? lucas : yeah . adrienne : sure . sure . lucas : okay . abigail , hang in there , okay ? adrienne : so why did it upset you to hear gabi was in greece ? abigail : chad is there too , but he told me he was on a business trip . adrienne : honey ... abigail : i mean , i knew they were gon na get together . that 's why i 'm divorcing him . i just did n't want to share space in his heart anymore . adrienne : and you 're never ready to hear that . especially not so soon . abigail : it hurts . gosh , that really hurts to know that i was right . you know ? gabi : so your business trip , it has something to do with this amulet ? chad : it 's an ancient artifact , and it 's worth a lot of money . gabi : okay , well , i 'm guessing this was n't exactly a legal transaction ? chad : shh . gabi : oh , come on . you can tell me . i 'm the one that got you into the stolen artifact business . you can trust me . chad : i know i can . gabi : [ laughs ] so -- so wait , i 'm guessing from what hope said , you do n't even have it yet . you do have it . oh , it 's beautiful . okay , now tell me about the curse . chad : legend goes that whoever possesses the amulet will be cursed with terrible luck . it 's just a superstition , but it 's enough to spook my entire security team . andre . gabi : andre believes in the curse ? chad : yeah , it 's ridiculous . i tried to tell him that all of the events that have happened since i got the amulet are just a coincidence . gabi : what events ? chad : abigail filed for divorce . the -- the jet , the engine problems . just bad timing . gabi : chad , you need to get rid of that amulet right now . lani : any movement from deimos ? jj : still up in his hotel . all we can do is wait . lani : maybe we should get a hotel ourselves . jj : no , we better stay on the jet so we can move fast if we need to . jj : where did eli go ? lani : to find gabi . he decided that he was n't gon na let her go back to chad without a fight . that 's good , right ? jj : yeah . lani : i know you still worry about her . jj : not because i have feelings for her anymore . i just -- i do n't want to see her get hurt again . why are you smiling like that ? lani : because i just told eli that it 's important to be up front about your feelings , and just now you 're doing that . jj : well , in that case , um , let me be honest about something else . i hate that we 're in this beautiful country with crystal blue water and gorgeous beaches and amazing food and we 're stuck on this plane . lani : i know . it 's depressing . we might as well be on a runway in salem . but i have an idea . jj : i like it when you get ideas . lani : when we first decided to come to greece , i did some research . check this out . jj : all of that is just right outside these windows . lani : mm - hmm , or it can be right here . inside . jj : i think i see where you 're going with this . lani : we are in one of the most beautiful places on the earth . let 's use our imaginations . jj : oh , i can do that . lani : [ laughs ] [ romantic greek music ] lani : [ laughs ] jj : twirl for me . lani : [ laughs ] chloe : mm ! oh ! hot ! dario : you -- chloe : i burned my tongue . dario : you got to let it cool down first . little patience . chloe : oh , well , yeah . that 's good advice for coffee . and life . maybe when i 'm 90 years old , i 'll actually remember to think before i act . dario : yeah . i have that problem too . chloe : it 's just that ... i miss holly so much . just think about the next time that i 'll see her . i remember parker at that age . they just -- they change so fast . they grow up . dario : well , why do n't you bring him here to live with you ? chloe : i would love to , but my life right now , it 's just such a hot mess , and he needs stability . dario : stability . what is that ? chloe : [ laughs ] i do n't know . maybe a job , for starters . dario : well , we could use a singer . you know , we set up the stage right over there . you interested ? chloe : i would n't have to audition or anything -- dario : no ! i 've heard you plenty of times . you 're great . chloe : oh , yeah . the whole stalking thing . dario : well , it 's not stalking if you 're hired to do the job . chloe : oh , whatever . i blame deimos anyway . dario : so that settles it . you 're staying here . you 're my new singer . chloe : uh , i did n't say yes . dario : you were about to . chloe : how do you know that ? dario : 'cause i know you . chloe : okay , yes . i 'll do it . dario : good . chad : do n't tell me you believe in curses . gabi : i do n't know what i believe , okay ? i just do n't think that it 's worth the risk . chad : well , this could potentially be a huge payday , and after that hacking incident , believe me , we need this . gabi : well , sell it , then . get rid of it before you leave greece . chad : it 's not that easy to find a buyer . gabi : deimos wants it . chad : deimos ? gabi : sell it to him . yes . you took his business . he 's across town . give him the bad luck . chad : since when do you believe in superstition ? gabi : oh , come on , you 're gon na tell me you do n't have a little bit of doubt ? you 're not worried just the tiniest bit ? chad : i make my own luck . gabi : what if you 're wrong ? chad : it 's gon na be fine . gabi : you do n't know that . you do n't know that at all . i mean , what if the problems that you were having , the engine trouble , what if that happened when you were up in the air ? what if there 's more ? chad : gabi -- gabi : what ? no . i 'm worried . okay ? what if something were to happen to you ?

chad : i already told you , the middleman never showed up . hope : i know what you told me , chad . chad : i have n't done nothing wrong , hope . now , i know that you came to greece to try to catch me doing something illegal -- hope : no , i came to greece to stop you from doing something illegal . there 's a big difference there . you 're still family to me . chad : then you should trust me . i do n't know what 's worse , andré believing in the curse , or you believing that i 'm a thief . hope : i want what 's best for you . i do n't want to see you become your father , chad . chad : i could never be stefano . hope : never ? chad : mm - hmm . hope : that 's a very , very long time . chad : well , with or without abigail , i know who i am , and what i want . [ dramatic music ] dario : you 'd really consider marrying me to keep me in the country ? abigail : i have not said yes . okay ? i said maybe . i want you to speak to an immigration lawyer . i want you to exhaust every opportunity that you can think of , every strategy , and then , if something does n't pan out , then we can talk . dario : i know what a sacrifice this is for you . but like i said , we 'd only be married in name . i mean , yeah , we 'd have to make it look real for the authorities , but ... abigail : are you sure we can really pull off a fake marriage that fast ? i mean , are they even gon na buy it ? dario : i think we could make it work . you have no idea how much this means to -- abigail : i did not say yes . okay , please , just do n't -- do n't get ahead of yourself . dario : i know . [ phone ringing ] hello ? alberto . hey . yeah , are you still in guadalajara ? no , no , it 's not a rumor . the deportation proceedings have already begun . how did you ... no . please tell me that 's not the truth . chloe : you know , it 's easy to blame me for what happened to nicole and brady . everybody does , but you know what , they need to be held accountable for their stupid decisions . lucas : you forced them to go on the run . chloe : they did n't put holly 's needs first . lucas : and you did ? really ? chloe : yeah . if nicole would have just accepted the court 's decision and let me raise my child -- lucas : it 's not your child ! it 's nicole 's daughter ! come on , you know that . adrienne : hey , hey , hey . guys , guys , guys , guys . i think we should calm down . we 're trying to have a good day , remember ? chloe : you 're counting on this guy to have your back ? trust me , take it from someone who 's been married to him before . only a matter of time before he turns on you too . lucas : oh ... adrienne : it 's all right . jj : if gabi wants to be with chad , there 's not much we can do about it . eli : oh , so you 're okay with her going back to be with him . jj : of course not . eli : then why would you drive her straight to him ? jj : 'cause i 'd rather have her with chad than here with us . gabi is obsessed with getting back at deimos for what he did to her family . eli : can you blame her ? jj : no , but pretty soon , we 're gon na get a call from sonny and paul that deimos is on the move . and i do n't want to worry that gabi is going to go off and jump right into danger . eli : and who 's to say chad 's not putting her in danger right now ? hope : so you followed deimos here to greece ? gabi : well , sonny thinks that he 's trying to find xander and nicole . chad : and the question is , what is he gon na do if he finds them ? hope : and you knew about this ? chad : i ran into sonny , paul , and gabi yesterday . and jj and lani are here ? gabi : yeah . hope : where are they now ? gabi : they 're on sonny 's jet . it 's on the runway a few miles from here . hope : i 'm gon na go see if i can pitch in . i want nicole and holly to come home . do me a favor : text me the address . gabi : okay . hope : you 'd better be telling the truth about the amulet , or the curse is gon na be the least of your problems . [ phone beeps ] hope : thanks , gabi . i just got it . gabi : did she just say , `` curse `` ? abigail : what was that ? dario : it 's nothing you should worry about . abigail : well , you seem worried . dario : yeah , i 'll deal with it . abigail : dario , whatever you just heard 's got you shaken up , and , you know , i 'd appreciate it if you told me what it was . dario : when i was living in argentina , i got into a shady business deal and i made some enemies . i did n't know at the time , but they had ties to el fideo . abigail : the mexican drug lord . dario : i cost him a lot of money , and i was able to make it back to the states before he could get to me , but he has n't forgotten . and now he 's heard i 'm being -- i might be deported back to mexico . abigail : so he 's waiting for you so that he can take revenge ? dario : you know , i do n't know , this is all second - hand info , and i am not telling you this to put more pressure -- abigail : okay , but so -- dario : on you , abigail . abigail : when does this all happen ? when are they gon na force you to leave ? dario : i do n't know . it could probably happen at any moment . but , listen . whatever you decide , i will figure it out , and i promise , i will -- i 'll completely understand . okay ? abigail : mm . okay . look , i got to think -- i 'll just -- i 'll let you know . dario : yeah . abigail : soon as i can , okay ? dario : okay . [ dramatic music ] jj : i 'm not getting great reception in here . i 'm gon na go outside and see if i can get ahold of sonny . eli : well , i 've never seen you so quiet . no opinions on the gabi situation ? lani : only that i love hearing two guys argue over how a woman should behave . eli : that 's not what we 're doing . lani : i was here . you wanted to keep gabi away from chad , jj wanted to keep her away from here . it 's tough when they do n't listen , is n't it ? eli : look , we 're just trying to keep her safe . what 's wrong with that ? lani : gabi is gon na do whatever she wants . eli : yeah , that i 've noticed . lani : why did n't you go after her when she left ? eli : because i have a job to do here . i mean , it 's like you said . if she wants to run off and be with chad now that he 's gon na be single , what am i gon na do ? lani : well , that depends . i mean , how serious is your relationship ? eli : not very . lani : but you like her . eli : does it matter ? i mean , she 's in love with another guy . lani : yes , it matters , you dummy . look , if you want something more serious with her , then you got to let her know . eli : are you sure you 're not just saying this because -- lani : she 's jj 's ex and i want her out of the way ? look , that 's not a bad thing . but that 's not why i 'm pushing you towards her . eli : you sure ? lani : i 'm pushing you because you 're a huge pain , okay ? and she 's actually someone who can handle it . eli : thanks . lani : my point is , eli , you could be good together . okay ? but if you wait too long , it might be too late . you going to go find her ? eli : i need to check in with the local authorities . but i 'll see if i can track her down . you know , sometimes you 're not so bad . chloe : [ sighs ] dario : can i get you a bloody mary ? chloe : ugh . are you serious ? i still have a headache from yesterday 's drinking contest . dario : coffee , then ? chloe : ah , espresso . double . por favor . dario : double it is . any word on nicole and holly ? chloe : no , but i did just run into my ex , lucas , though , and he said that i 'm a horrible person who used a baby for selfish reasons . dario : that seems harsh . chloe : nicole hates me for trying to take holly , and it just seems like the whole rest of the world is on her side . dario : i do n't hate you . chloe : [ chuckles ] you do n't know me . dario : i know you well enough . i used to spy on you for deimos . chloe : oh . yeah . are you supposed to get points for that ? dario : well , i 'm saying i probably know you better than what you call your so- called friends . chloe : oh , yeah ? dario : yeah . chloe : what do you know about me ? dario : i 've seen enough of you to know that you 're not a horrible or selfish person . chloe : thank you . that 's really sweet of you to say . dario : yeah . [ laughter ] adrienne : abigail ? abigail : oh , hey , guys . hi . hi , ari . lucas : you okay ? abigail : yeah , i just ... got a lot on my mind . adrienne : your mom told me about you and chad breaking up . is there any possibility that -- abigail : no , no . i filed for divorce this week . adrienne : honey , i 'm so sorry . abigail : no , that 's okay . we 'll talk about it later . okay . hey , ari , where 's your mommy , huh ? arianna : in greece . lucas : oh ! actually it 's -- abigail : greece ? lucas : kind of late . we should get you to school , little one . um , i 'll stop by later so we can talk , okay ? adrienne : oh , talk ? lucas : yeah . adrienne : sure . sure . lucas : okay . abigail , hang in there , okay ? adrienne : so why did it upset you to hear gabi was in greece ? abigail : chad is there too , but he told me he was on a business trip . adrienne : honey ... abigail : i mean , i knew they were gon na get together . that 's why i 'm divorcing him . i just did n't want to share space in his heart anymore . adrienne : and you 're never ready to hear that . especially not so soon . abigail : it hurts . gosh , that really hurts to know that i was right . you know ? gabi : so your business trip , it has something to do with this amulet ? chad : it 's an ancient artifact , and it 's worth a lot of money . gabi : okay , well , i 'm guessing this was n't exactly a legal transaction ? chad : shh . gabi : oh , come on . you can tell me . i 'm the one that got you into the stolen artifact business . you can trust me . chad : i know i can . gabi : [ laughs ] so -- so wait , i 'm guessing from what hope said , you do n't even have it yet . you do have it . oh , it 's beautiful . okay , now tell me about the curse . chad : legend goes that whoever possesses the amulet will be cursed with terrible luck . it 's just a superstition , but it 's enough to spook my entire security team . andre . gabi : andre believes in the curse ? chad : yeah , it 's ridiculous . i tried to tell him that all of the events that have happened since i got the amulet are just a coincidence . gabi : what events ? chad : abigail filed for divorce . the -- the jet , the engine problems . just bad timing . gabi : chad , you need to get rid of that amulet right now . lani : any movement from deimos ? jj : still up in his hotel . all we can do is wait . lani : maybe we should get a hotel ourselves . jj : no , we better stay on the jet so we can move fast if we need to . jj : where did eli go ? lani : to find gabi . he decided that he was n't gon na let her go back to chad without a fight . that 's good , right ? jj : yeah . lani : i know you still worry about her . jj : not because i have feelings for her anymore . i just -- i do n't want to see her get hurt again . why are you smiling like that ? lani : because i just told eli that it 's important to be up front about your feelings , and just now you 're doing that . jj : well , in that case , um , let me be honest about something else . i hate that we 're in this beautiful country with crystal blue water and gorgeous beaches and amazing food and we 're stuck on this plane . lani : i know . it 's depressing . we might as well be on a runway in salem . but i have an idea . jj : i like it when you get ideas . lani : when we first decided to come to greece , i did some research . check this out . jj : all of that is just right outside these windows . lani : mm - hmm , or it can be right here . inside . jj : i think i see where you 're going with this . lani : we are in one of the most beautiful places on the earth . let 's use our imaginations . jj : oh , i can do that . lani : [ laughs ] [ romantic greek music ] lani : [ laughs ] jj : twirl for me . lani : [ laughs ] chloe : mm ! oh ! hot ! dario : you -- chloe : i burned my tongue . dario : you got to let it cool down first . little patience . chloe : oh , well , yeah . that 's good advice for coffee . and life . maybe when i 'm 90 years old , i 'll actually remember to think before i act . dario : yeah . i have that problem too . chloe : it 's just that ... i miss holly so much . just think about the next time that i 'll see her . i remember parker at that age . they just -- they change so fast . they grow up . dario : well , why do n't you bring him here to live with you ? chloe : i would love to , but my life right now , it 's just such a hot mess , and he needs stability . dario : stability . what is that ? chloe : [ laughs ] i do n't know . maybe a job , for starters . dario : well , we could use a singer . you know , we set up the stage right over there . you interested ? chloe : i would n't have to audition or anything -- dario : no ! i 've heard you plenty of times . you 're great . chloe : oh , yeah . the whole stalking thing . dario : well , it 's not stalking if you 're hired to do the job . chloe : oh , whatever . i blame deimos anyway . dario : so that settles it . you 're staying here . you 're my new singer . chloe : uh , i did n't say yes . dario : you were about to . chloe : how do you know that ? dario : 'cause i know you . chloe : okay , yes . i 'll do it . dario : good . chad : do n't tell me you believe in curses . gabi : i do n't know what i believe , okay ? i just do n't think that it 's worth the risk . chad : well , this could potentially be a huge payday , and after that hacking incident , believe me , we need this . gabi : well , sell it , then . get rid of it before you leave greece . chad : it 's not that easy to find a buyer . gabi : deimos wants it . chad : deimos ? gabi : sell it to him . yes . you took his business . he 's across town . give him the bad luck . chad : since when do you believe in superstition ? gabi : oh , come on , you 're gon na tell me you do n't have a little bit of doubt ? you 're not worried just the tiniest bit ? chad : i make my own luck . gabi : what if you 're wrong ? chad : it 's gon na be fine . gabi : you do n't know that . you do n't know that at all . i mean , what if the problems that you were having , the engine trouble , what if that happened when you were up in the air ? what if there 's more ? chad : gabi -- gabi : what ? no . i 'm worried . okay ? what if something were to happen to you ? [ phone ringing ] gabi : i would ... be -- it would -- chad : this could be a buyer . i have to take this . [ phone ringing ] [ dramatic music ] gabi : [ sighs ] [ shudders ] needles .

like what ? jack : does n't matter anymore . summer : do you see all those calls to and from jack ? it was him ! those two got busy , like , seconds after she dumped billy . lily : the truth is that i ran a red light , and i 'm the reason that hilary is dead . devon : i do n't want lily to have anything to do with gc buzz . lily : i do n't understand . what are you saying ? devon : i 'm saying that you 're fired . lily : devon , you ca n't just fire -- devon : fire you ? yes , i can fire you . lily : what happened to hilary -- devon : what you did to hilary . lily : devon , it was an accident , okay ? and getting rid of me wo n't help us fix this . devon : lily , there 's absolutely nothing for you to fix . okay ? my wife and my child are dead , and you 're responsible for that . and i 'm not gon na come to work , to my place of business and look at your face every single day . you have no rights to this company or my life . you lost those when you ran the red light . lily : devon , we are family , okay ? and getting rid of me does n't change that . i am not going anywhere . i am right here . you have to talk to me . neil : do you remember that you and i are partners in this ? i 'm not letting you cut lily loose . lily , you have a place here . you always will . billy : well , that sounds promising . all right , keep me posted . all right . thanks . thought you left with the others . phyllis : i wanted some one - on - one time to congratulate you on your new venture . billy : well , that sounds nice . although , it 's a little surprising since you were conspiring against me just a few short hours ago . neil : devon . devon : stop it , neil . i really do n't want to hear anything else . neil : stop it ? listen , i do n't know about all this . devon : what does that mean ? neil : what does it mean ? look , you obviously are not listening . every time lily opens her mouth , you 're flat - out shutting her down . devon : mm - hmm . neil : so you 're gon na walk out now ? you 're just gon na run ? i mean , that 's not gon na solve anything . devon : and what 's your deal now ? you 're calling the shots and telling me what to do and who i can fire ? neil : what i 'm talking about right now is the family . devon : you think i 've forgotten that it 's about family ? it 's always been about that . it 's about the two members that were ripped away from me . lily : devon ... i love you . and i hate that seeing my face hurts you so much . and if you want me to go , i 'll go . phyllis : i was n't teaming up against you , billy . billy : oh , no ? that meeting with ashley and kyle , what was that ? yeah , i heard about that . summer told me . phyllis : did she leave out the part that i was sucked into that ? i had no idea what i was walking in on . billy : still does n't explain why summer had to tell me and not you . she also mentioned that kyle and ashley are forming an alliance against me , like some kind of reality tv show . phyllis : yeah , because obviously , uh , summer is more loyal to you than your own girlfriend . i do n't know , maybe she thinks that you and she are a team , since you are so used to keeping each other 's secrets . billy : oh , we 're gon na go there now , huh ? phyllis : no , we 're not . i could n't pull out my phone in front of everyone . i report to lauren . she has some concerns about ... your leadership . billy : and do you share those concerns ? i mean , you were n't exactly enthusiastic about my brick - and - mortar plan . phyllis : yes , i was . i said your idea had merit . billy : [ chuckles ] phyllis : i also have to be seen siding with lauren , with her concerns on this . if people are shopping at jabot boutiques , that is money not being spent on jabot products at fenmore 's . fenmore 's had to take on a partner because the retail market is so volatile . you knew that , and yet you still decided to take all of your r & d funds and toss it at store leases . and not just one flagship store to test it out , but a chain . and , billy , that is scary , okay ? that 's huge . billy : yeah , it is . and it 's exciting . phyllis : see ? that , right there . this risk is still a thrill to you . it 's like you have just ... traded in gambling at cards for gambling with jabot . billy : this is business . it 's not poker . it 's how it works . no risk , no reward . phyllis : but it 's the same high that 's feeding you . look , this is n't some cash or a boat you could lose . if this idea tanks , it could damage jabot , and you are the only one that 's gon na take the heat . you . if that happens , you are giving your enemies exactly what they want . kyle : you 're honestly okay with these jaboutiques ? summer : yes , i am okay with it . i respect our c.e.o . kyle : respect ? uh - huh . that 's cute . you were n't there for his so - called pitch . summer : billy does not need to pitch you anything . he was merely keeping you informed as our boss , as a professional courtesy . it is our job to be supportive and have his back , you know . kyle : wow . summer : what ? kyle : admit it . you 're a fangirl . summer : a fangirl ? kyle : with a borderline obsessive crush , and for that reason alone , you ca n't see that these new stores are a huge risk . summer : as is any new business venture .. you just need to have a little faith . kyle : fair enough . but , come on , that name ? i ca n't even say it with a straight face . summer : okay , well , you do n't need to . you 're not the target demo , and neither is ashley or lauren . i am . kyle : you 're the demo ? summer : yes . i 'm the most desirable consumer there is . billy knows exactly what women like me want . it 's instinct , okay ? he ca n't help himself . and you and the others ca n't see it because you 're busy being haters , which is why i told him about your little secret meeting . kyle : smart . very . since he 's not even your boss . lauren is . so you 're clearly trying to get fired . summer : it is not about a paycheck , kyle , it 's about doing the right thing , and someone needs to have billy 's back . kyle : and that someone is you ? you think billy 's gon na be wowed by your loyalty and dump his girlfriend , aka , your mother ? summer : okay , once billy finds out that my mom slept with jack , he wo n't even be able to run to me fast enough . and i 'm gon na be waiting there with open arms . in fact , billy 's gon na get the ugly truth tonight . additional sponsorship phyllis : this is not judgment . it 's concern . you know that . billy : i know that you love me . i know that you were thrilled when i took over as c.e.o . here . if i remember correctly , you said it was the hottest thing ever . i know that you support me 100 % . but then today ... phyllis : i 'm still excited . i 'm just being pragmatic . billy : is it , because the last few months , it seems like you 've been a little tightly wound . that is not judgment , that is just concern . phyllis : the past few months ? billy : yeah . it 's like you 're a little more stressed than usual . and it 's not all the time , but when this new you shows up , you have this feeling like everything could spin out . phyllis : because it can any second . phyllis : that never bothered you before . phyllis : things have changed . you know ? and , yeah , since hilary , i am more worried . i 'm trying to hold on to what i have . and i love you , and i love your passion and your confidence and the way that you go with your gut . but , yeah , i 'm scared . if this jabot boutique idea just falls flat , i just ... the `` blood abbott `` clause does not protect you or the company from a huge financial hit . billy : i am telling you , i swear to you , this is gon na work . the feasibility study i did on fenmore 's locations , part of that was research for jaboutique . pinpointing the ideal city , the optimal square footage per store , understanding what products women want to purchase in person and the experience that they want to have . is it a risk ? yes . but the win will be huge , and this has nothing to do with gambling . this is about business . taking the opportunity of the market . i do n't need a random rush . i get that with you . the biggest gamble i ever made in my life was going after you , and it pays off every day . phyllis : i am with you . all the way . phyllis : that is just a preview of what you 're gon na get when i get home tonight . phyllis : really ? you 're such a tease . billy : i 'll make it up to you . over and over again . phyllis : what time ? billy : late , and i 'm assuming in order to keep everything on schedule here , i 'm gon na have some late nights . phyllis : that 's no problem . gives me time to plan a surprise or two . then once you get home , we will make the most out of every second , okay ? kyle : tonight 's the night you finally get a piece of billy . i mean , sure , you have no proof that phyllis and my dad actually slept together , and billy does n't actually want a piece of you , but , hey , we 're living in a post - factual society , so get it , girlfriend . summer : all right , my proof is that your dad still wants my mom . kyle : does n't mean he 's acted on it . she left him for his brother . tiny hurdle there . summer : all right , well , the heart wants what it wants . and my mom and jack should be together . i mean , why would n't they ? what my mom has with billy is n't real . kyle : oh , you keep telling yourself that . summer : and my mom and jack have been spending a lot of time together -- on the phone , face to face ... kyle : because of hilary . because billy was n't there when phyllis needed him . summer : exactly . billy got a taste of freedom and he liked it , and my mom does n't know how to be single for two minutes , so she runs back to her loving and attentive ex . kyle : again , does n't mean that there 's proof that the guy that was with phyllis that night was my dad . summer : all right , then i 'll get proof . kyle : [ chuckles ] you have cameras in your place that night ? summer : you know , we are so in sync , it 's amazing . and do n't get excited , it 's in a platonic way . but , yes , cameras are involved . kyle : does one of them double as a time machine , you can go back to the past ? summer : no . but a repeat performance will do . okay , i get my mom , you get your dad in the same place , set the mood , let the sparks fly , all while cameras are rolling , and you 're gon na help me make it happen . kyle : okay . sure . summer : wait , wait , wait . you 're actually saying yes ? kyle : of course . since we 're such good platonic pals . summer : wow . you really do want to get into my good graces , huh ? kyle : i want this to explode in your face . like a singe - off - the - eyebrows kind of explosion . summer : well , you 're gon na be eating your words and praising my genius by the time this is over . kyle : hm . let 's make it happen . nate : cane . cane : hey . nate : i heard from neil about lily 's decision . cane : yeah , well , i could n't stop her going to the police , so , uh ... i do n't know what 's gon na happen now , but it 's not gon na be good . nate : it 's because she did n't tell them the whole truth right away . cane : well , that 's because she did n't know the truth 'cause i did n't tell her , and i 've already told you that . nate : you can keep telling yourself that you were protecting her . cane : well , i was , was n't i ? nate : not by lying . cane : well , you see , it 's my lie , not hers . nate : well , lily 's the one that 's paying for it . cane : hey , you do n't have to tell me that , and before you say `` go to hell , `` you do n't have to because i 'm already there . devon : you can pack your stuff now , or i can have it packed for you and sent to your house . neil : your sister is not going anywhere . no matter what , we 're connected . that 's not changing . your sister is hurting , man ! she 's facing criminal prosecution ! devon : because she committed a crime ! lily : dad , it 's fine . devon 's not gon na listen to you . and you know what , maybe i should go home . because if i end up in prison , i 'll wish i had spent more time with my kids than here . neil : please , lily , do n't talk like that . devon : yeah , no , she 's absolutely right . where lily works next might be a moot point 'cause then you 'll be out of this office and out of my life . neil : i understand your pain , i do , but that does n't give you a free pass to emotionally beat up your sister . lily : devon . i know what i did , okay ? i replay it over and over in my head at night . and by 3 : 00 a.m. , i am so tired that i stop being rational , that i think i can just wish it away . like none of it ever really happened . devon : you know what i do at night ? i wonder what baby names hilary was thinking of . because we never got to tell each other our ideas . so i think of all of that . i think of the names that she would have liked , i think of the ones that she probably would have hated . and then right about at 3 : 00 a.m. , actually , i doze off , and then i wake back up and i forget what happened . completely . and i wonder `` where is hilary ? `` did she go and get a drink of water , or what ? but she 's not there , she 's gone . my bed is empty , like my life is because of you . neil : okay , this is a little too much here . no more . i mean it . devon : it 's fine . it 's fine . neil : no , i mean it . come on . devon : i mean it . i 'm done here .

your tablet ? jack : i got some business to handle for dark horse . kyle : it 's just -- it 's sad . i mean , it 's great you 've gotten something meaty to chew on , but you know you still need a social life , right ?

phyllis : no . why ? summer : well , i saw him today and , i do n't know , he just seems kind of down lately . i do n't know , i think the whole paternity thing and not finding his dad has really , i do n't know , broken him down a little bit . phyllis : you think so ? summer : yeah , i just wish that there was something that i could do or say . i do n't know , i just think that he really needs someone to lean on right now . with the whole abbott thing going on , i just do n't know what to do . he 's been so good to me and to us . who knows ? maybe he 'll reach out to you . phyllis : well , he knows i 'm there for him . summer : good , i 'm glad . hey , but please do n't mention that i said any of this to you because i know that he 's really sensitive about the whole paternity thing , and i do n't want him to think i was talking behind his back , you know ?

summer : mm , not so joyous - anymore . no , i mean , honestly , i think that they 're just hanging on by a thread . billy 's at work really late , so mom is just at home , worried , and ... i do n't know how to make any of it better , you know ? and it 's not like mom has hilary to talk to anymore . i mean , i can try to talk to her , but you know she 's never gon na open up to me , so ... i do n't know , maybe you want to talk to her . jack : summer , i 'm sorry . your mother does n't want to talk to me about any of these things . she knows how i feel about her getting back together with billy . she 's made her choice . summer : i am telling you , jack , they are not happy anymore . now it 's just about saving face , which , yeah , i mean i guess it makes sense . i mean , she threw away her life with you for billy , and to admit that that was a mistake , she -- jack : she does n't feel that way . summer : okay , well , i am telling you that she was ready to throw her pride aside as soon as billy left the picture . jack : wait , what does that mean ? summer : it 's just ... the way that she looks when she talks about you ... the things that she says ... honestly , i thought that you guys were ready to try again . jack : whatever you thought , whatever i thought , phyllis is back together with billy . she 's made her choice . summer : you love her still . there 's something between you guys . am i right ?

phyllis : no . just me and the tv . come on in . jack : thanks . phyllis : sure . jack : i was n't sure you were gon na let me in after the last time we spoke . phyllis : what ? oh , the rooftop . you think i 'm silly for taking billy back . thank god you and i will always be friends . please , have a seat . jack : thanks . billy : come in . hey . summer : hey . billy : what are you doing here ? summer : well , i slacked off all week , so i 'm running behind on a marketing proposal , and i have to stay late to make up for it . got a little hungry , so i thought i 'd bring you some food , too . billy : just a heads up -- that actually sounds like slacking . summer : all right , fine . i lied . the food is just trojan horse for me to get into the door . there 's something that i really wanted to talk to you about . devon : i know you guys are trying to do this intervention thing where you want to tell me how i 'm supposed to mourn my wife and child , but you already have made yourselves very clear , so you do n't have to do it again . neil : okay , let me make this clear . we 're not here to judge you , man . we 're not here to correct you . nate 's been there . i 've been there . we 're your family . we know what you 're going through . devon : do you really ? nate : yeah , when i lost my girlfriend , i could n't hear anything . no sounds , voices , the world . it 's like i had headphones on and i was drowning everything out . all the stuff people said to me , them trying to help me , and it was the same way in my heart . i did n't want to feel anything . i mean , i even stopped practicing medicine because if i could n't save my own girlfriend , what 's the point ? i was angry . i was bitter . and i was lost . i could have gotten help . i should have gotten help . but i didn't . i just kept piling pain on top of pain , man . neil : listen , man , i -- hey , look at me . look at me . you 're not an angry man . you know ? you 're not built that way . any time you tried to lash out when you were a kid or when you grew up , i could tell how much it hurt you . and it 's happening all over again . you are completely consumed with anger . look at what happened to me . like you , i lost my best friend . i lost my wife , tragically , and i pushed everyone away that loved me . i fell off the wagon . i started drinking . i pushed you and your sister away . i did n't want to feel better . i felt like i did n't deserve to . i do n't want to see what happened to me happen to you . so i 'm gon na ask you -- would hilary want this for you ? lily : you know , sometimes i think maybe i should just let devon fire me because he looks at me and he sees what happened to hilary , and i ca n't blame him for that . but then i think if i do just disappear , he can just pretend like i do n't exist . and we 'll just drift farther and farther apart . but , you know what , maybe it does n't even matter because if i end up in prison , we wo n't see each other anyway . cane : listen , i 'm not gon na let you think like this , okay ? because you love your work , and you 've poured yourself into this business . lily : it 's not about the job . he 's my brother . cane : exactly , he 's your brother , and when you wanted to start this agency , he asked you to do it here at hamilton - winters group , and he ca n't offer you that and just take it away from you . what happened , baby , it was an accident . and he ca n't just punish you for that . this could have happened to anyone . lily : answer me honestly . if hilary were driving and i died , would you forgive her ? cane : but that did n't happen . baby , you 're still here , and i 'm so grateful for that , so ... you ca n't make yourself suffer , okay , for something you regret with your whole heart . you ca n't do to yourself . lily : we both know how you 'd feel . so i ca n't blame devon . i am the reason his wife is gone , and nothing i do will ever make things right with him . i mean , my family has been through so much , and this might be the things that breaks us apart forever . phyllis : so i get out my phone , and i 'm ready to tap out some bitchy text -- half real , and half because i know it 'll make hilary laugh , but then , you know , i realize ... jack : i know . i was thinking about devon earlier , everything he 's facing . you plan your whole life with somebody , and suddenly they 're gone . i do know one thing for sure . you have to let the people you care about know how you feel . phyllis : absolutely . jack : to that end ... i want you to know , next time you feel like tapping out a bitchy text , send it to me . phyllis : [ giggles ] jack : hilary 's not the only person who always got a kick out of your sense of humor . i want you to know , in case you do n't know , i 'm here for you to lean on . phyllis : i 'm always here for you , too , to listen to what you want to say , or not say . jack : thanks . i mean that . phyllis : you know , you have n't said anything about the search for your father . i mean , now that you know it 's not philip chancellor , i mean , what are you thinking ? jack : well , i 'm still thinking it 's someone at the country club . dina 's too fragile to ask right now . i mean , she has her good days , but i do n't want to waste that time dragging her through that , making her feel like a failure because she ca n't tell me what i need to know . phyllis : i mean , there 's got to be other sources . jack : well , i 've got the old country club ledger full of names i do n't recognize and people who probably passed away . i 'm gon na keep trying , though . phyllis : that ca n't be easy , all that uncertainty . not knowing if you 'll ever get the answer you want . jack : dark horse has helped . it 's given me something to focus on . i really appreciate having a new challenge . phyllis : i hear you . you got to stay sharp to take on the world . summer : to jaboutiques . billy : thank you for that . summer : mm - hmm . billy : although , you did n't have to come all the way down here just to prove to me that you like the idea . summer : okay , well , i 'm not sucking up to the c.e.o . , if that 's what you think . i just really liked your idea , and i want to help out any way that i can . billy : [ clears throat ] you are a fenmore 's employee . lauren already thinks that i 'm stepping all over her profits , so you do n't want to go down that road . [ groans ] summer : what 's wrong ? billy : nothing . summer : what , did you pull something ? billy : no , it 's fine . summer : okay , billy , i can see the knots in your shoulders from across the room . i think you need an ergonomic chair or keyboard or something , and maybe not work at your desk for 12 hours a day . billy : all right , i will take that into consideration . summer : here . okay , do n't be such a baby . i 'm not gon na hurt you . billy : you do n't have to do this , you know . summer : okay , i took a shiatsu seminar last year , and the instructor did n't really speak a lot of english , but i think i got the gist . billy : is that a joke ? summer : just be quiet and let me do my thing , okay ? billy : agh ! summer : seriously ? suck it up . billy : you 're good . that 's good . thank you . no , i appreciate it . that was really good . summer : all right . you know , billy , i 'm being serious about the better chair , and maybe even a standing desk . because , you know , jabot can afford it , i think . billy : you really do know what you 're doing , huh ? you were n't lying . summer : no . i was being honest with you . now i think it 's time that you should be honest with me . billy : what the hell was that ? summer : well , it was me kissing you and you letting it happen . neil : now , i know you 've lost a lot , and if you let this anger eat you up , you 're gon na lose even more , and i personally -- i 'm not gon na let that happen . devon : just relax . all right ? i 'm not gon na crawl into a bottle , neil . i 'm not gon na give up on my work . this is n't about me spinning out because of grief . this is about justice . that 's all i want , is justice for my wife and for my child . and if anyone else had been responsible , you 'd have my back , but you do n't , and that 's fine , but what it tells me is that , to you , lily 's comfort supercedes what happened to my wife and kid . lily : hello ? yes . okay . thank you . that was michael . i 'm being arraigned tomorrow . cane : wait a minute , you 're being arraigned ? what are the charges ? i mean , the d.a . is gon na have to show you some leniency , right , and cut you a break . right ? lily : two counts of vehicular homicide -- one for hilary and the unborn baby . cane : no , no , they ca n't do that , baby . you did n't mean to do this . they ca n't do this to you . lily : oh , my god . i could be locked up for 20 years . cane : come here , i got you . lily : oh , my god . cane : i got you , baby . i got you . i got you . come here . i got you . come here . lily : [ sobbing ] jack : working with nick has been inspirational . he 's reinventing himself as a man he wants to be . no hesitation , no apologies . his passion is intoxicating . phyllis : yeah . yeah , that 's definitely what he is . he 's intoxicating . but i am so glad you have this new purpose . you know , what you 're doing to help nick , you know , with dark horse , it 's just like building something from the ground up . i just think that 's very impressive . jack : why not join us ? no , i mean it . step away from fenmore 's , write your own ticket . believe me , nick would take you any way he could get you . phyllis : that 's a bad idea . jack : i know you feel loyal to lauren and to billy , but think about it . really . the situation you 're in now ... phyllis : i 'm fine . jack : is it really fine ? you could speak your mind at dark horse . you 'd be appreciated , valued if you came with us . sometimes what works , what fits for a while , is n't meant to last . sometimes you have to move on , find what you need . phyllis : you 're always looking out for me , are n't you ? jack : i will always be there for you . oh , wait , i -- phyllis : no , what i meant was that billy and i are fine . we 're good . we 're truly good . jack : no , i 'm -- i 'm sorry . i do n't know what came over me . phyllis : no , it 's okay . jack : i 'll show myself out . phyllis : no , no , no . jack . jack : it 's all right . phyllis : it 's all right . [ door slams ] billy : i am sick of this . you got to stop this , all right ? you 're gon na leave me no choice but to go to the your mother . summer : okay , then why wait till next time ? just pick up the phone and tell her right now . billy : is that what you want me to do ? summer : i want to hear what you want . billy : i want you to stop this . i want you to quit with these -- these games . summer : just admit it , billy . you liked it . billy : my god , summer . summer : okay , come on , billy . you 're just hoping that it 'll happen , and you 're just wishing that the timing would be better . maybe when you 're drunk or when you and my mom had a fight ... or when you can say yes and you just do n't feel responsible . billy , i remind you of who you used to be . of who you wish you could be again . billy : the only reason why i have n't told your mother is because i do n't want to be the reason your relationship blows up . summer : whatever you got to tell yourself . billy : i 'm not doing this to protect you . i 'm doing this to protect her . get out . | neil refused to allow devon to fire lily . phyllis was concerned that billy was feeding his gambling habit by making risky business decisions at jabot . billy assured her that jabotique would be a success and that it had nothing to do with gambling . summer told kyle that she was going to expose phyllis and jack 's one night stand tonight and that it would push billy into summer 's arms . kyle agreed to take part in summer 's plot , because he wanted to see the scheme backfire . summer placed a camera in her apartment . summer lied to phyllis and jack about each other , in order to manipulate them into spending time together . jack and phyllis talked about hilary and devon , and they promised to always be there for each other . jack leaned in to kiss phyllis , but she pulled back and told him she was with billy . jack apologized and left . summer kissed billy , but he pushed her away and threatened to tell phyllis if it happened again . summer contended that billy wanted her . billy threw her out of his office . | <s>[INST] [ previously_on ] kyle : you 're looking for a fling . with your mother 's boyfriend , for god only knows what reason . summer : i 'm at the club and so is lauren and ashley and kyle , and it looks like they might be conspiring against you . billy : ladies and gentlemen , jaboutique . jack : it just felt like she was giving me signals . summer : really ? like what ? jack : does n't matter anymore . summer : do you see all those calls to and from jack ? it was him ! those two got busy , like , seconds after she dumped billy . lily : the truth is that i ran a red light , and i 'm the reason that hilary is dead . devon : i do n't want lily to have anything to do with gc buzz . lily : i do n't understand . what are you saying ? devon : i 'm saying that you 're fired . lily : devon , you ca n't just fire -- devon : fire you ? yes , i can fire you . lily : what happened to hilary -- devon : what you did to hilary . lily : devon , it was an accident , okay ? and getting rid of me wo n't help us fix this . devon : lily , there 's absolutely nothing for you to fix . okay ? my wife and my child are dead , and you 're responsible for that . and i 'm not gon na come to work , to my place of business and look at your face every single day . you have no rights to this company or my life . you lost those when you ran the red light . lily : devon , we are family , okay ? and getting rid of me does n't change that . i am not going anywhere . i am right here . you have to talk to me . neil : do you remember that you and i are partners in this ? i 'm not letting you cut lily loose . lily , you have a place here . you always will . billy : well , that sounds promising . all right , keep me posted . all right . thanks . thought you left with the others . phyllis : i wanted some one - on - one time to congratulate you on your new venture . billy : well , that sounds nice . although , it 's a little surprising since you were conspiring against me just a few short hours ago . neil : devon . devon : stop it , neil . i really do n't want to hear anything else . neil : stop it ? listen , i do n't know about all this . devon : what does that mean ? neil : what does it mean ? look , you obviously are not listening . every time lily opens her mouth , you 're flat - out shutting her down . devon : mm - hmm . neil : so you 're gon na walk out now ? you 're just gon na run ? i mean , that 's not gon na solve anything . devon : and what 's your deal now ? you 're calling the shots and telling me what to do and who i can fire ? neil : what i 'm talking about right now is the family . devon : you think i 've forgotten that it 's about family ? it 's always been about that . it 's about the two members that were ripped away from me . lily : devon ... i love you . and i hate that seeing my face hurts you so much . and if you want me to go , i 'll go . phyllis : i was n't teaming up against you , billy . billy : oh , no ? that meeting with ashley and kyle , what was that ? yeah , i heard about that . summer told me . phyllis : did she leave out the part that i was sucked into that ? i had no idea what i was walking in on . billy : still does n't explain why summer had to tell me and not you . she also mentioned that kyle and ashley are forming an alliance against me , like some kind of reality tv show . phyllis : yeah , because obviously , uh , summer is more loyal to you than your own girlfriend . i do n't know , maybe she thinks that you and she are a team , since you are so used to keeping each other 's secrets . billy : oh , we 're gon na go there now , huh ? phyllis : no , we 're not . i could n't pull out my phone in front of everyone . i report to lauren . she has some concerns about ... your leadership . billy : and do you share those concerns ? i mean , you were n't exactly enthusiastic about my brick - and - mortar plan . phyllis : yes , i was . i said your idea had merit . billy : [ chuckles ] phyllis : i also have to be seen siding with lauren , with her concerns on this . if people are shopping at jabot boutiques , that is money not being spent on jabot products at fenmore 's . fenmore 's had to take on a partner because the retail market is so volatile . you knew that , and yet you still decided to take all of your r & d funds and toss it at store leases . and not just one flagship store to test it out , but a chain . and , billy , that is scary , okay ? that 's huge . billy : yeah , it is . and it 's exciting . phyllis : see ? that , right there . this risk is still a thrill to you . it 's like you have just ... traded in gambling at cards for gambling with jabot . billy : this is business . it 's not poker . it 's how it works . no risk , no reward . phyllis : but it 's the same high that 's feeding you . look , this is n't some cash or a boat you could lose . if this idea tanks , it could damage jabot , and you are the only one that 's gon na take the heat . you . if that happens , you are giving your enemies exactly what they want . kyle : you 're honestly okay with these jaboutiques ? summer : yes , i am okay with it . i respect our c.e.o . kyle : respect ? uh - huh . that 's cute . you were n't there for his so - called pitch . summer : billy does not need to pitch you anything . he was merely keeping you informed as our boss , as a professional courtesy . it is our job to be supportive and have his back , you know . kyle : wow . summer : what ? kyle : admit it . you 're a fangirl . summer : a fangirl ? kyle : with a borderline obsessive crush , and for that reason alone , you ca n't see that these new stores are a huge risk . summer : as is any new business venture .. you just need to have a little faith . kyle : fair enough . but , come on , that name ? i ca n't even say it with a straight face . summer : okay , well , you do n't need to . you 're not the target demo , and neither is ashley or lauren . i am . kyle : you 're the demo ? summer : yes . i 'm the most desirable consumer there is . billy knows exactly what women like me want . it 's instinct , okay ? he ca n't help himself . and you and the others ca n't see it because you 're busy being haters , which is why i told him about your little secret meeting . kyle : smart . very . since he 's not even your boss . lauren is . so you 're clearly trying to get fired . summer : it is not about a paycheck , kyle , it 's about doing the right thing , and someone needs to have billy 's back . kyle : and that someone is you ? you think billy 's gon na be wowed by your loyalty and dump his girlfriend , aka , your mother ? summer : okay , once billy finds out that my mom slept with jack , he wo n't even be able to run to me fast enough . and i 'm gon na be waiting there with open arms . in fact , billy 's gon na get the ugly truth tonight . additional sponsorship phyllis : this is not judgment . it 's concern . you know that . billy : i know that you love me . i know that you were thrilled when i took over as c.e.o . here . if i remember correctly , you said it was the hottest thing ever . i know that you support me 100 % . but then today ... phyllis : i 'm still excited . i 'm just being pragmatic . billy : is it , because the last few months , it seems like you 've been a little tightly wound . that is not judgment , that is just concern . phyllis : the past few months ? billy : yeah . it 's like you 're a little more stressed than usual . and it 's not all the time , but when this new you shows up , you have this feeling like everything could spin out . phyllis : because it can any second . phyllis : that never bothered you before . phyllis : things have changed . you know ? and , yeah , since hilary , i am more worried . i 'm trying to hold on to what i have . and i love you , and i love your passion and your confidence and the way that you go with your gut . but , yeah , i 'm scared . if this jabot boutique idea just falls flat , i just ... the `` blood abbott `` clause does not protect you or the company from a huge financial hit . billy : i am telling you , i swear to you , this is gon na work . the feasibility study i did on fenmore 's locations , part of that was research for jaboutique . pinpointing the ideal city , the optimal square footage per store , understanding what products women want to purchase in person and the experience that they want to have . is it a risk ? yes . but the win will be huge , and this has nothing to do with gambling . this is about business . taking the opportunity of the market . i do n't need a random rush . i get that with you . the biggest gamble i ever made in my life was going after you , and it pays off every day . phyllis : i am with you . all the way . phyllis : that is just a preview of what you 're gon na get when i get home tonight . phyllis : really ? you 're such a tease . billy : i 'll make it up to you . over and over again . phyllis : what time ? billy : late , and i 'm assuming in order to keep everything on schedule here , i 'm gon na have some late nights . phyllis : that 's no problem . gives me time to plan a surprise or two . then once you get home , we will make the most out of every second , okay ? kyle : tonight 's the night you finally get a piece of billy . i mean , sure , you have no proof that phyllis and my dad actually slept together , and billy does n't actually want a piece of you , but , hey , we 're living in a post - factual society , so get it , girlfriend . summer : all right , my proof is that your dad still wants my mom . kyle : does n't mean he 's acted on it . she left him for his brother . tiny hurdle there . summer : all right , well , the heart wants what it wants . and my mom and jack should be together . i mean , why would n't they ? what my mom has with billy is n't real . kyle : oh , you keep telling yourself that . summer : and my mom and jack have been spending a lot of time together -- on the phone , face to face ... kyle : because of hilary . because billy was n't there when phyllis needed him . summer : exactly . billy got a taste of freedom and he liked it , and my mom does n't know how to be single for two minutes , so she runs back to her loving and attentive ex . kyle : again , does n't mean that there 's proof that the guy that was with phyllis that night was my dad . summer : all right , then i 'll get proof . kyle : [ chuckles ] you have cameras in your place that night ? summer : you know , we are so in sync , it 's amazing . and do n't get excited , it 's in a platonic way . but , yes , cameras are involved . kyle : does one of them double as a time machine , you can go back to the past ? summer : no . but a repeat performance will do . okay , i get my mom , you get your dad in the same place , set the mood , let the sparks fly , all while cameras are rolling , and you 're gon na help me make it happen . kyle : okay . sure . summer : wait , wait , wait . you 're actually saying yes ? kyle : of course . since we 're such good platonic pals . summer : wow . you really do want to get into my good graces , huh ? kyle : i want this to explode in your face . like a singe - off - the - eyebrows kind of explosion . summer : well , you 're gon na be eating your words and praising my genius by the time this is over . kyle : hm . let 's make it happen . nate : cane . cane : hey . nate : i heard from neil about lily 's decision . cane : yeah , well , i could n't stop her going to the police , so , uh ... i do n't know what 's gon na happen now , but it 's not gon na be good . nate : it 's because she did n't tell them the whole truth right away . cane : well , that 's because she did n't know the truth 'cause i did n't tell her , and i 've already told you that . nate : you can keep telling yourself that you were protecting her . cane : well , i was , was n't i ? nate : not by lying . cane : well , you see , it 's my lie , not hers . nate : well , lily 's the one that 's paying for it . cane : hey , you do n't have to tell me that , and before you say `` go to hell , `` you do n't have to because i 'm already there . devon : you can pack your stuff now , or i can have it packed for you and sent to your house . neil : your sister is not going anywhere . no matter what , we 're connected . that 's not changing . your sister is hurting , man ! she 's facing criminal prosecution ! devon : because she committed a crime ! lily : dad , it 's fine . devon 's not gon na listen to you . and you know what , maybe i should go home . because if i end up in prison , i 'll wish i had spent more time with my kids than here . neil : please , lily , do n't talk like that . devon : yeah , no , she 's absolutely right . where lily works next might be a moot point 'cause then you 'll be out of this office and out of my life . neil : i understand your pain , i do , but that does n't give you a free pass to emotionally beat up your sister . lily : devon . i know what i did , okay ? i replay it over and over in my head at night . and by 3 : 00 a.m. , i am so tired that i stop being rational , that i think i can just wish it away . like none of it ever really happened . devon : you know what i do at night ? i wonder what baby names hilary was thinking of . because we never got to tell each other our ideas . so i think of all of that . i think of the names that she would have liked , i think of the ones that she probably would have hated . and then right about at 3 : 00 a.m. , actually , i doze off , and then i wake back up and i forget what happened . completely . and i wonder `` where is hilary ? `` did she go and get a drink of water , or what ? but she 's not there , she 's gone . my bed is empty , like my life is because of you . neil : okay , this is a little too much here . no more . i mean it . devon : it 's fine . it 's fine . neil : no , i mean it . come on . devon : i mean it . i 'm done here . [ door slams ] lily : [ sniffles ] cane : you see , ever since charlie told me what happened , i 've been living this nightmare because it 's my job as a man to keep my family safe . i mean , anyone can run chancellor , but , you know , looking after lily and the kids , that 's up to me . my instincts kick in , and ... it does n't matter if it 's moral , only if it works . and , you see , i know that you being this upstanding , righteous doctor would n't understand that . nate : i do n't understand what it 's like to lie to my family and to people i care about . but that other stuff , i hear you . i know what it 's like to think that i 'm the only one that can solve the problem , that it 's up to me play god . just -- it never works out that way , and when you realize that , it 's when the fear kicks in . cane , there 's this blind panic that you ca n't control the future . it 's coming at you like a freight train . but you ca n't let the fear take over . lily needs you way too much . you need to be her rock . cane : i will always be her rock . that is never gon na change . kyle : that your date for the evening ? your tablet ? jack : i got some business to handle for dark horse . kyle : it 's just -- it 's sad . i mean , it 's great you 've gotten something meaty to chew on , but you know you still need a social life , right ? jack : i have that . kyle : really ? because , for months , it was about getting jabot back , then finding your father , and now nick 's company . my whole life , you 've had this live - work balance , and by live , i mean women . now , not so much . unless there 's someone ... jack : there is someone . i was interested , she unfortunately was not . kyle : you sure about that ? jack : very sure . kyle : well , the right person 's out there for you . anyway , i 'll let you get back to work . phyllis : oh , hey , honey . i thought you had plans tonight . summer : no , um , i do . i was just making some last - minute hair tweaks . um , what about you ? are you alone since billy 's probably working late ? phyllis : well , i just saw him . he has quite a bit on his plate . summer : mm . phyllis : and about billy ... do n't you worry about calling him with secret updates , okay ? i 'll keep him in the loop about every little detail , okay ? summer : well , i just knew that you had a lot on your plate with lauren and the others , and i was just doing you a favor by keeping billy in the loop , so ... phyllis : well ... summer : i knew you 'd want me to have his back . phyllis : okay . looking after him is my job . summer : all right . gotcha . well , i am out of here . phyllis : all right . summer : oh , um , one more thing . did you talk to jack today ? phyllis : no . why ? summer : well , i saw him today and , i do n't know , he just seems kind of down lately . i do n't know , i think the whole paternity thing and not finding his dad has really , i do n't know , broken him down a little bit . phyllis : you think so ? summer : yeah , i just wish that there was something that i could do or say . i do n't know , i just think that he really needs someone to lean on right now . with the whole abbott thing going on , i just do n't know what to do . he 's been so good to me and to us . who knows ? maybe he 'll reach out to you . phyllis : well , he knows i 'm there for him . summer : good , i 'm glad . hey , but please do n't mention that i said any of this to you because i know that he 's really sensitive about the whole paternity thing , and i do n't want him to think i was talking behind his back , you know ? phyllis : nope . not a word . i will do what i can . thank you for letting me know . summer : yeah . my pleasure . phyllis : okay . summer : bye . phyllis : bye . summer : jack . please tell me that this is not how you are spending your evening . jack : funny , kyle had the same reaction . summer : mm , i guess he 's right about some things . jack : have a seat . so , what do you have going on this evening ? summer : honestly , um , anything to be away from home . jack : what 's wrong there ? summer : just some weird vibes . jack : between you and your mom ? summer : mm , no , between mom and billy . just a lot of weird tension . jack : what happened to their joyous reconciliation ? summer : mm , not so joyous - anymore . no , i mean , honestly , i think that they 're just hanging on by a thread . billy 's at work really late , so mom is just at home , worried , and ... i do n't know how to make any of it better , you know ? and it 's not like mom has hilary to talk to anymore . i mean , i can try to talk to her , but you know she 's never gon na open up to me , so ... i do n't know , maybe you want to talk to her . jack : summer , i 'm sorry . your mother does n't want to talk to me about any of these things . she knows how i feel about her getting back together with billy . she 's made her choice . summer : i am telling you , jack , they are not happy anymore . now it 's just about saving face , which , yeah , i mean i guess it makes sense . i mean , she threw away her life with you for billy , and to admit that that was a mistake , she -- jack : she does n't feel that way . summer : okay , well , i am telling you that she was ready to throw her pride aside as soon as billy left the picture . jack : wait , what does that mean ? summer : it 's just ... the way that she looks when she talks about you ... the things that she says ... honestly , i thought that you guys were ready to try again . jack : whatever you thought , whatever i thought , phyllis is back together with billy . she 's made her choice . summer : you love her still . there 's something between you guys . am i right ? go with that feeling , jack . this thing with billy , it 's just gon na drag my mom down . so be her lifeboat . pull her back from the abyss . before it 's too late . cane : hey . so , uh , what did he say ? lily : i can't . not yet . cane : okay . but , uh , you told him confessed , right ? i mean , that had to make a difference . lily : no , he thinks the only way that hilary can have justice is if i 'm punished . cane : that 's what he said ? lily : that , and so much more . [ voice breaking ] he hates me . and i think even if i am punished , it wo n't be enough for him . [ sniffles ] [ sighs deeply ] neil : devon , he 's absolutely full of rage , you know ? i mean , it 's a continuous flow . sometimes he 's fired up , sometimes he 's icy cold . you know , i know you said to let him grieve in his own way , but i am watching him spiral into a dark , vicious world . i mean , nate , this is n't the man that i know . nate : you feel like you need to do something now . neil : [ sighs ] will you help me ? nate : whatever you need . [ knocks on door ] devon : okay , we 're not doing this right now . neil : hey , come on . wait , no , hold on . nate and i are n't leaving until you hear us out . devon : lily is a grown woman , neil . she committed a crime , she can deal with the consequences . neil : listen to me . we 're here for you . we 're here to save you from yourself . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . phyllis : jack ! hi . jack : bad time ? phyllis : no . just me and the tv . come on in . jack : thanks . phyllis : sure . jack : i was n't sure you were gon na let me in after the last time we spoke . phyllis : what ? oh , the rooftop . you think i 'm silly for taking billy back . thank god you and i will always be friends . please , have a seat . jack : thanks . billy : come in . hey . summer : hey . billy : what are you doing here ? summer : well , i slacked off all week , so i 'm running behind on a marketing proposal , and i have to stay late to make up for it . got a little hungry , so i thought i 'd bring you some food , too . billy : just a heads up -- that actually sounds like slacking . summer : all right , fine . i lied . the food is just trojan horse for me to get into the door . there 's something that i really wanted to talk to you about . devon : i know you guys are trying to do this intervention thing where you want to tell me how i 'm supposed to mourn my wife and child , but you already have made yourselves very clear , so you do n't have to do it again . neil : okay , let me make this clear . we 're not here to judge you , man . we 're not here to correct you . nate 's been there . i 've been there . we 're your family . we know what you 're going through . devon : do you really ? nate : yeah , when i lost my girlfriend , i could n't hear anything . no sounds , voices , the world . it 's like i had headphones on and i was drowning everything out . all the stuff people said to me , them trying to help me , and it was the same way in my heart . i did n't want to feel anything . i mean , i even stopped practicing medicine because if i could n't save my own girlfriend , what 's the point ? i was angry . i was bitter . and i was lost . i could have gotten help . i should have gotten help . but i didn't . i just kept piling pain on top of pain , man . neil : listen , man , i -- hey , look at me . look at me . you 're not an angry man . you know ? you 're not built that way . any time you tried to lash out when you were a kid or when you grew up , i could tell how much it hurt you . and it 's happening all over again . you are completely consumed with anger . look at what happened to me . like you , i lost my best friend . i lost my wife , tragically , and i pushed everyone away that loved me . i fell off the wagon . i started drinking . i pushed you and your sister away . i did n't want to feel better . i felt like i did n't deserve to . i do n't want to see what happened to me happen to you . so i 'm gon na ask you -- would hilary want this for you ? lily : you know , sometimes i think maybe i should just let devon fire me because he looks at me and he sees what happened to hilary , and i ca n't blame him for that . but then i think if i do just disappear , he can just pretend like i do n't exist . and we 'll just drift farther and farther apart . but , you know what , maybe it does n't even matter because if i end up in prison , we wo n't see each other anyway . cane : listen , i 'm not gon na let you think like this , okay ? because you love your work , and you 've poured yourself into this business . lily : it 's not about the job . he 's my brother . cane : exactly , he 's your brother , and when you wanted to start this agency , he asked you to do it here at hamilton - winters group , and he ca n't offer you that and just take it away from you . what happened , baby , it was an accident . and he ca n't just punish you for that . this could have happened to anyone . lily : answer me honestly . if hilary were driving and i died , would you forgive her ? cane : but that did n't happen . baby , you 're still here , and i 'm so grateful for that , so ... you ca n't make yourself suffer , okay , for something you regret with your whole heart . you ca n't do to yourself . lily : we both know how you 'd feel . so i ca n't blame devon . i am the reason his wife is gone , and nothing i do will ever make things right with him . i mean , my family has been through so much , and this might be the things that breaks us apart forever . phyllis : so i get out my phone , and i 'm ready to tap out some bitchy text -- half real , and half because i know it 'll make hilary laugh , but then , you know , i realize ... jack : i know . i was thinking about devon earlier , everything he 's facing . you plan your whole life with somebody , and suddenly they 're gone . i do know one thing for sure . you have to let the people you care about know how you feel . phyllis : absolutely . jack : to that end ... i want you to know , next time you feel like tapping out a bitchy text , send it to me . phyllis : [ giggles ] jack : hilary 's not the only person who always got a kick out of your sense of humor . i want you to know , in case you do n't know , i 'm here for you to lean on . phyllis : i 'm always here for you , too , to listen to what you want to say , or not say . jack : thanks . i mean that . phyllis : you know , you have n't said anything about the search for your father . i mean , now that you know it 's not philip chancellor , i mean , what are you thinking ? jack : well , i 'm still thinking it 's someone at the country club . dina 's too fragile to ask right now . i mean , she has her good days , but i do n't want to waste that time dragging her through that , making her feel like a failure because she ca n't tell me what i need to know . phyllis : i mean , there 's got to be other sources . jack : well , i 've got the old country club ledger full of names i do n't recognize and people who probably passed away . i 'm gon na keep trying , though . phyllis : that ca n't be easy , all that uncertainty . not knowing if you 'll ever get the answer you want . jack : dark horse has helped . it 's given me something to focus on . i really appreciate having a new challenge . phyllis : i hear you . you got to stay sharp to take on the world . summer : to jaboutiques . billy : thank you for that . summer : mm - hmm . billy : although , you did n't have to come all the way down here just to prove to me that you like the idea . summer : okay , well , i 'm not sucking up to the c.e.o . , if that 's what you think . i just really liked your idea , and i want to help out any way that i can . billy : [ clears throat ] you are a fenmore 's employee . lauren already thinks that i 'm stepping all over her profits , so you do n't want to go down that road . [ groans ] summer : what 's wrong ? billy : nothing . summer : what , did you pull something ? billy : no , it 's fine . summer : okay , billy , i can see the knots in your shoulders from across the room . i think you need an ergonomic chair or keyboard or something , and maybe not work at your desk for 12 hours a day . billy : all right , i will take that into consideration . summer : here . okay , do n't be such a baby . i 'm not gon na hurt you . billy : you do n't have to do this , you know . summer : okay , i took a shiatsu seminar last year , and the instructor did n't really speak a lot of english , but i think i got the gist . billy : is that a joke ? summer : just be quiet and let me do my thing , okay ? billy : agh ! summer : seriously ? suck it up . billy : you 're good . that 's good . thank you . no , i appreciate it . that was really good . summer : all right . you know , billy , i 'm being serious about the better chair , and maybe even a standing desk . because , you know , jabot can afford it , i think . billy : you really do know what you 're doing , huh ? you were n't lying . summer : no . i was being honest with you . now i think it 's time that you should be honest with me . billy : what the hell was that ? summer : well , it was me kissing you and you letting it happen . neil : now , i know you 've lost a lot , and if you let this anger eat you up , you 're gon na lose even more , and i personally -- i 'm not gon na let that happen . devon : just relax . all right ? i 'm not gon na crawl into a bottle , neil . i 'm not gon na give up on my work . this is n't about me spinning out because of grief . this is about justice . that 's all i want , is justice for my wife and for my child . and if anyone else had been responsible , you 'd have my back , but you do n't , and that 's fine , but what it tells me is that , to you , lily 's comfort supercedes what happened to my wife and kid . lily : hello ? yes . okay . thank you . that was michael . i 'm being arraigned tomorrow . cane : wait a minute , you 're being arraigned ? what are the charges ? i mean , the d.a . is gon na have to show you some leniency , right , and cut you a break . right ? lily : two counts of vehicular homicide -- one for hilary and the unborn baby . cane : no , no , they ca n't do that , baby . you did n't mean to do this . they ca n't do this to you . lily : oh , my god . i could be locked up for 20 years . cane : come here , i got you . lily : oh , my god . cane : i got you , baby . i got you . i got you . come here . i got you . come here . lily : [ sobbing ] jack : working with nick has been inspirational . he 's reinventing himself as a man he wants to be . no hesitation , no apologies . his passion is intoxicating . phyllis : yeah . yeah , that 's definitely what he is . he 's intoxicating . but i am so glad you have this new purpose . you know , what you 're doing to help nick , you know , with dark horse , it 's just like building something from the ground up . i just think that 's very impressive . jack : why not join us ? no , i mean it . step away from fenmore 's , write your own ticket . believe me , nick would take you any way he could get you . phyllis : that 's a bad idea . jack : i know you feel loyal to lauren and to billy , but think about it . really . the situation you 're in now ... phyllis : i 'm fine . jack : is it really fine ? you could speak your mind at dark horse . you 'd be appreciated , valued if you came with us . sometimes what works , what fits for a while , is n't meant to last . sometimes you have to move on , find what you need . phyllis : you 're always looking out for me , are n't you ? jack : i will always be there for you . oh , wait , i -- phyllis : no , what i meant was that billy and i are fine . we 're good . we 're truly good . jack : no , i 'm -- i 'm sorry . i do n't know what came over me . phyllis : no , it 's okay . jack : i 'll show myself out . phyllis : no , no , no . jack . jack : it 's all right . phyllis : it 's all right .

victoria : with dad in jail , it 's been so chaotic here . the media wo n't let up . the business pages are nailing newman . and the department heads are bombarding me with questions . i 'm sorry , but i do n't have the answers . nikki : listen to me . i know you can handle this , okay ? you just stay strong , keep your focus , let the world know that even though victor has fallen , the company will not . victoria : yeah , well , we both know it wo n't be that easy . and i keep expecting adam to show up and stake his claim . victor : getting ahead of yourself ? nikki : victor . victoria : you made bail . victor : you probably wish i had n't . steal this company right out from under me , right ? get out of the chair . i have work to do . phyllis : i want you to convince victor to trust you and then brilliantly , masterfully blow the case . i want you to use every legal skill you got to make sure victor newman never sees another blue sky again the rest of his loathsome life . michael : you know what you 're asking me to do , right ? basically give up my career . you 're asking me to betray everything i believe in . phyllis : just settle down . you have been his lawyer before . i am asking you to do that again , but this time , he gets what he deserves . jack : that is not the way to handle the situation with victor . phyllis : on the contrary , jack . it 's the only way . sarah : so , dr. whistler needs to examine you . it wo n't take long . you 're safe , max . there 's nothing to be afraid of . max : okay . sarah : okay . dylan : uh , excuse me , ma'am . detective mcavoy , gcpd . i got the call about max rayburn . sarah : sarah fox , child protective services . dylan : nice to meet you . so , what 's , uh -- what 's the situation ? sarah : well , max told his homeroom teacher his dad 's been mistreating him . that triggered the call to my office . dylan : [ sighs ] sarah : the doctor will examine the boy for any signs of physical abuse or injury , and based on what he finds , we 'll determine our next steps . dylan : okay . um , i understand that this is proper procedure . but i know max 's father , dr. ben rayburn . i mean , we 're friends . we go way back . and i know -- i know that he would never hurt his son . so this whole thing has to be a big misunderstanding . sarah : i hope you 're right , detective . but you can never really know what 's going on inside another person 's home . abby : maybe max 's teacher misunderstood whatever it was he said . stitch : it does n't matter . her takeaway was that i 'm a danger to my kid . and so she 's obligated to report it . so , now the social workers have him , and i do n't know when or if i 'm gon na get him back . nick : sage , come on . sage : nick , answer me . do you want this baby ? i mean , you keep telling me that we should n't get our hopes up and that this adoption process could fall through at the last moment . is that because that 's what you hope will happen ? nick : of course not . sage : then why did you want her to look at the ultrasound ? and why did you ask her if she was sure she did n't want it when she gave you this photo ? nick : sage , giving up her baby has to be the hardest thing she 's ever had to do in her life . i mean , she 's giving us this amazing gift . and i want her to know that we -- we appreciate it and that we 're sensitive to what she 's going through . sage : okay , but being sensitive to that is different than encouraging her to connect with the child . if you keep doing that , if she keeps looking at this baby , then she might become attached to it and she might want it . and ... i want this baby . [ voice breaking ] i want it . i want it , too . healthy choice believes nick : i did not mean to upset you . i know how much you want this baby . i want it , too . sage : you sure ? nick : yes . we 're in this together , 100 % . sage : i 'm sorry that i doubted you . [ chuckles ] nick : i guess i accept your apology . sage : [ laughs ] now , you know , i told you i 'd be strong enough to handle this process , and i am . okay ? i really am . it 's just -- [ sighs ] it was an emotional day , you know ? nick : yeah . sage : i mean , we saw this little one . nick : he 's pretty cute . sage : [ chuckles ] and we heard his heart beating . we 're just so close to having our little boy again . nick : let 's go home . [ door opens ] oh . hey , shawn . what are you still doing here ? shawn : i forgot my purse . i -- there it is . nick : oh . here we go . shawn : thanks . nick : sure . shawn : so , why are you still here ? everything okay ? sage : oh , yeah , yeah . we were just talking . you know , we 're just really excited about the baby , and we 're so appreciative of what you 're doing for us . hey . can we show you ? you want to have a bite with us ? shawn : you might be shocked by this , but i am a little hungry . sage : [ chuckles ] nick : uh , let 's -- let 's go . sage : after you . abby : okay , babe . do n't panic . you did nothing wrong . we will get this all straightened out soon enough . just stay calm . can you do that for me ? [ cell phone rings ] stitch : mac , thank god . w - what 's going with max ? dylan : hey , i 'm at memorial right now . the social worker assigned to his case brought him by here to get him checked out . stitch : okay . any idea who ? dylan : from what i heard , a dr. whistler . does that sound right ? stitch : pediatrics . he 's good . that 's something , at least . dylan : okay , well , i - i 'm sticking close . i 'm doing everything i can to help , buddy . stitch : but this may be out of your hands , out of my hands , too . dylan : well , you know how the system works . once a kid 's in , they have to act as if the claim is true until proven otherwise . it 's just to protect the kid . stitch : right , right . i understand , but it does n't make this any less of nightmare . dylan : i get it . did you hire the attorney yet ? stitch : no , i - i barely had time to tell abby . dylan : okay , stitch , i 'm telling you right now , you need to hire an attorney . phyllis : michael is the only one we can trust . he 's the only person who 's gon na make sure victor pays for what he 's done . jack : red , christine -- phyllis : i know what you 're gon na say . that we need to trust christine . we need to put our faith in her . and you know what ? i have about zero confidence in her ability to make these charges stick . she plays everything by the book , and that ai n't gon na work this time . we have to have somebody who 's as down and dirty as victor is . michael : oh . oh , and naturally , i 'm the first person to come to mind because i have no problem acting in bad faith , you know , oh , possibly causing a mistrial , jeopardizing my legal license , and all the while leaving myself open to a massive lawsuit . no , it 's just another day at the mines for good old michael . jack : listen to your friend . phyllis : victor , if we do not stand up to him , will use his money and power and connections to get this case against him dropped . even if christine were competent enough , she would never stand a chance . [ cell phone vibrates ] jack : victor made bail . a million bucks . phyllis : what am -- what am i saying here ? i - i mean , it 's already happening , michael . get in there . stop him . michael : no , no , no . not doing it . victoria : well , someone needed to be in charge while you were in jail -- dealing with the press and the day - to - day operations . victor : this is the closest you will ever get to running this company . i 'm not in the habit of rewarding traitors . nikki : victor , this is your fault , not victoria 's , so do n't go turning it around on her . victor : she fed me to the wolves . nikki : when paul showed up , what was she supposed to do ? victor : what do you think she was supposed to have done ? been loyal to her father . victoria : oh , sure . yeah . i was just supposed to ignore your immoral behavior . i was just supposed to bury evidence and become a part of your conspiracy . perfect idea , dad . i love you , but i hate what you 've done . and i do n't want to cover for your lies anymore . you hurt people -- jack , phyllis , ben . victor : will you stop it ! i hurt jack and phyllis ? ! those two obnoxious people ? are you serious ? ! you knifed me in the back . that 's what you did . you 're every bit as traitorous and deceitful as your brother adam , god help you . nikki : how dare you compare our daughter to him ? victor : there 's the door . get out . i got work to do . nikki : not for long . victor : what are you talking about ? you do n't even know what you 're talking about . victoria : actually , she does know what she 's talking about . victor : what ? victoria : i 'm gathering the board of directors . we 're gon na hold a vote to have you thrown out of newman . sage : i 'm surprised you wanted to come here instead of the athletic club . shawn : i 've never been there . i like this place . nick : oh , yeah . best hot chocolate in town . sage : [ laughs ] well , next time , we 'll go there , and you 'll like it . it 's got this great restaurant and spa and all these fun children activities like swimming and peewee basketball and arts and crafts . shawn : i bet the baby will really enjoy that when he 's old enough . sage : yeah . definitely . but the favorite place will definitely be the ranch . shawn : ranch ? sage : mm - hmm . oh , um , nick 's family lives on a ranch , and they have , um , horses and ducks and ponds and trees and ... shawn : man , that sounds fantastic . nothing like where i grew up . nick : uh , you know what ? why do n't we order ? sage : yeah . shawn : i need to make a pit stop first . excuse me . sage : hey , why did n't you chime in , talk up the ranch a little bit ? nick : i just feel like we should ease off a little . i mean , we do n't need to give her the hard sell . shawn already picked us . sage : oh , hard sell ? really ? i 'm just giving her the highlights of the things we can give this child that she ca n't , you know , so if she ever changes her mind , she 'll remember this conversation and realize what a mistake it would be to walk away . victor : after we almost collapse , i restructure the company , i put more family members on the board of directors , and this is the thanks i get ? victoria : [ sighs ] victor : you two are turning my own flesh and blood against me ? victoria : i 'm doing what 's best for newman enterprises . i 'm looking out for the interests of this company . if there 's a unanimous vote -- victor : i will not and can not be removed as the head of this company ! you got it ? ! nikki : victor , listen to me . the company is already suffering because of your arrest . victor : you do n't know what the hell you 're talking about . get out ! nikki : you have to accept what everybody else knows . you 're not in any condition to be running this company now or the future because you will be in prison . victor : you are traitors . that 's all you are ! phyllis : i thought you were my friend . i thought i could count on you . michael : not like this . phyllis : so , you 're okay with victor being acquitted ? jack : michael did not say that , and you know that . michael : i am thoroughly disgusted with victor . i believe he should be punished as severely as the judicial system and current social mores will allow . phyllis : oh , really ? then what 's the hang - up ? because this is about justice . is n't that what you were sworn to do ? jack : there are limits . michael : i have to operate within the statutes , you know . phyllis : victor wo n't . he will use the law however he wants unless we stand up to him , unless we have somebody as smart and cagey as he is . jack : you are setting up michael to be disbarred . you say he 's your friend ? how can you ask him to do something like this ? phyllis : victor used our lives as a plaything . he did not care about us . and i 'm pretty sure he felt justified with what he did , and he 's do it again in a heartbeat . if you do n't believe me , ask him . ask him if he even had a shred of remorse for what he put us through . now , michael , you are in a position to punish him for it . and you 're talking about ethics ? jack : there are a lot of people here , a lot of ears . now , take a deep breath . phyllis : i am breathing . michael : look . i love you , phyllis . i support you and jack . i wish i could help you , but you are asking too much of me . now , if you 'll excuse me , i 'm gon na go see what dr. rayburn and abby want . hey . abby : hi . i hope you do n't mind that we tracked you down , but we needed to see you right away . michael : i assume you need a lawyer . stitch : i - i 'm scared , michael . i could lose my son . will you please help me ? michael : okay , okay . let 's -- let 's grab a seat and start from the beginning . jack : i know you are desperate to see that victor is punished . you got no business pressuring michael to do that . phyllis : well , he obviously is not gon na cooperate , so we need to think of plan `` b , `` okay ? whatever works . jack : no . you need to stop thinking this way . phyllis : do n't tell me to back off . it makes me feel like you do n't give a damn what happens to victor . jack : i am insulted that you would even suggest that . furthermore , i have had it with your reckless attitude . phyllis : well , you 're not the only one who 's had it . jack : wait , wait , wait , wait . we 're not going anywhere until we talk this through . stitch : hi , there . hi . i 'm -- i 'm ben rayburn . this is my wife , abby . i understand my son , max , is here . i 'd like to see him . sarah : i 'm afraid that wo n't be possible . michael : uh , michael baldwin , dr. rayburn 's attorney . sarah : sarah fox . i believe we 've met , though it 's been a while . michael : parker vs. parker . sarah : good memory . michael : mm - hmm . [ both chuckle ] stitch : okay , look , i understand that i ca n't see max at the moment , but i am greatly concerned about his welfare . surely you can give me some information . his physical exam -- the results from it , assuming it 's been completed . sarah : the exam is over . stitch : and whistler did n't find anything , did he ? because i 've never , would never lay a hand on my son . you -- you -- you 've got to believe me . sarah : you might want to explain to your client how this works . michael : oh , i think dr. rayburn just wants you to hear his side of the story . dylan : hey , max . i 'm not sure you remember me . i 'm a friend of you dad 's . my name is dylan . i 'm a detective , and i - i came to see how you 're doing . max : i did n't know this was all gon na happen . dylan : uh , i 'm sure you did n't . i 'm glad to hear your exam went okay . no bruises or anything too scary . max : when can i get out of here ? dylan : well , that i 'm not really sure about because there 's a lot of questions that still need to be answered . max : am i in trouble ? dylan : you 're not . but your dad might be . max : maybe he deserves it . dylan : [ sighs ] i know that you 've had a few , uh , rough months , right ? with your mom passing , coming to a different country with your dad , his new wife , and now a baby 's on the way . i mean , that 's a lot of change in a short amount of time . and , yeah , your dad -- your dad -- he may not be perfect , but he 's doing everything he can to make things work . and i know he 's doing that because i know that he loves you . but there are some people who are questioning that . and they 're wondering if you are n't safe with him . max : what are they gon na do ? dylan : well , if , uh -- if they think you ca n't go home with him , they 're gon na have to find a new place for you to live . it 's called foster care . max : you mean i 'd have to go live with strangers . dylan : the social worker , uh , the people at your school , the doctors , the police -- we 're all worried about you on account of what you told your teacher . i mean , this is a very serious situation . is there something you want to tell me ? phyllis : i do n't want to hear anything you have to say . jack : listen to me . i am trying to keep you out of trouble . look at yourself . you are consumed with revenge . you are only gon na hurt yourself and all of the people you care about . i love you too much to let that happen . phyllis : if victor weasels out of this , it 'll kill me , jack . jack : our testimony and the mile - high stack of evidence is all the ammunition we need . your story , my story , the story of everyone else that victor 's deceit affected -- he 's not going to skate this time . this whole town is sick with what he 's done . his own family 's turned on him . if he 's alone , he is not going to escape justice . phyllis : you make me want to believe that . jack : do believe that . things have changed for us . we 're going to get justice . he ca n't control us anymore . and he certainly ca n't hurt us . phyllis : okay . we 'll try it your way . jack : good . phyllis : okay . victor : thank you for coming by so promptly . can i get you some coffee or something stronger , maybe ? elise : what i 'd like is for you to get to the point . you summoned me here . i think we both know why . victor : i was happy to hear that you were ... assigned to be the judge in my case . i think we both understand what that means . elise : i think you 're blackmailing me . again . victor : mm . elise : i think you 're going to keep holding our indiscretion from many years ago over my head . victor : now , do n't you think it is best if indiscretions remain discreet ? elise : and whenever your family needs to get out of some kind of trouble , you 're just going to ... threaten me with something that happened decades ago . and i just fall into line . victor : now , you realize , of course , that your family has benefited from my silence . so , i think you understand what i 'm expecting of you . elise : yes , victor . i know exactly what i have to do . victor : good . all right . thank you for coming by . [ door opens ] victoria : even if we vote to oust him , it 's only gon na be symbolic . because you know he 's just gon na defy us and keep running things anyway . nikki : temporarily , perhaps . but he 's going to stand trial , and even though he thinks he 's gon na get off scot - free , i do n't see that happening , not this time . victoria : oh , really ? then what is judge moxley doing here ? i bet he 's meeting with her downstairs . nikki : [ sighs ] victoria : he 's working an angle , mom . i know it . nikki : look , whether he 's convicted or not , he is finally going to suffer the consequences of his actions , which means stepping down from c.e.o . and that also means you stick to your plan to step up and run things . victoria : [ sighs ] i know that . i do n't know how i 'm gon na run the company while battling dad and possibly adam , not to mention planning a wedding and getting married ... not without some backup , anyway . nick : we 're walking a fine line with shawn . i think you should just chill out a little bit so you do n't come across as manipulative . sage : re -- [ cell phone rings ] nick : sorry . look , this is vick . i got to take this . hey , what 's going on ? victoria : hi . i 'm with mom at the top of the tower . can you join us ? nick : uh , now ? victoria : yes , now , nick . please . it 's really important . nick : uh ... okay . yeah . i 'm on my way . look , i am so sorry . something 's come up with mom and my sister , so i got to take off . sage : that 's all right . shawn and i will be just fine . nick : good . i 'll see you at home ? sage : yeah . [ smooches ] nick : it was great to see you , shawn . shawn : you , too , nick . nikki : you see ? you pick up the phone , call your brother , he drops whatever he 's doing , and he 's on his way to meet us . victoria : yeah , well -- nikki : everything is going to be fine . victoria : nick does n't know what i 'm about to ask him . once he finds out , then we 'll see how helpful he 's gon na be . stitch : max 's mother kept us out of touch for a long time . we 've only recently reconnected . sarah : i am aware of the family history . stitch : then you 're aware of how traumatic this has been for my son . look , we 've been doing everything we can to help max adjust , but he 's really been struggling , acting out . sarah : trouble at school , poor grades , getting into fights -- all classic indications that there 's trouble at home . michael : well , what are the specific claims against my client ? sarah : max 's teacher reported that he was extremely emotional , yelling , in tears , said his dad hates him , thinks he 's , quote , `` nothing but a problem , `` has a really bad temper that he 's always taking out on max . stitch : max had gotten into another fight at the playground today , which led to an argument . i 'd also just found out that my sister 's death was n't a suicide , that she had been killed , murdered . i was reeling from that , and i raised my voice , said some things i wish i had n't trying to make him understand . abby : it 's true . i was there . i saw the whole thing . michael : it does n't appear the child was ever in any real danger . sarah : i 'm afraid i 'm gon na need more than that to close my investigation . dylan : hey . can you all come in here for a minute ? sarah : detective , this is not a good idea . dr. rayburn should n't -- dylan : max wants to clear everything up . come on in . stitch : max , buddy . dylan : go ahead , max . max : when i talked to my teacher , i exaggerated . i made things sound worse than they really were . sage : [ clears throat ] i think i 'm gon na have the reuben with an extra pickle . what about you ? shawn : i 'm dying for another one of those doughnuts i got earlier . sage : [ laughs ] oh , i remember those cravings . when i was pregnant , i wanted jelly doughnuts all the time . shawn : really ? same thing ? sage : yes ! all the time . shawn : they 're the best , right ? sage : yes . but , of course , you know , i realized i could n't have them all the time . i mean , when you 're pregnant , you have to make healthy choices because you 're eating for two . shawn : i know it 's important to eat right . i 'm not living on doughnuts . i 'm eating plenty of good things , and i 'm exercising and taking my vitamins . so , you do n't need to come down on me , 'cause i 'm not gon na do anything to hurt the baby . nick : i 'm okay . i 'm assuming this has something to do with dad . nikki : yeah , well , he made bail , went straight to his office , and proceeded to say some very obnoxious things to your sister before he kicked both of us out . nick : and is any of this supposed to surprise me ? victoria : nick , dad is living in some bizarre alternative reality . he thinks he 's gon na be running newman indefinitely , despite the fact that he 's probably going to be going to prison , which means i have the battle on my hands of keeping the company afloat . nick : okay . i think i know where this is going , and as much as i sympathize with what you 're up against -- victoria : oh , my goodness . i ca n't believe you 're turning me down . nick : vick , i need to focus on my own family right now , okay ? with everything that 's been going on with dad and -- and noah , i just have n't had time to tell either one of you this , but sage and i are adopting a baby . in fact , we 've already met the birth mother . nikki : what ? i had no idea you were considering that . victoria : i did n't realize that , either . nick : yeah , well , we 've tried to keep it quiet . and in all honesty , i did not know it was gon na be moving this fast . nikki : well , honey , i - i think it 's wonderful that you want to adopt . nick : i think i hear a `` but `` coming . nikki : do you think that sage is ready ? nick : sage needs this . so do i . victoria : okay . i understand that . but i need you , too . nick : vick -- victoria : look , i know the timing is lousy , but newman is in crisis . please just consider coming back to help . victor : that board can vote all day long . they are not gon na remove me , all right ? you better not walk into that meeting hoping to get rid of me . it 's not gon na happen . phyllis : what 's it feel like to lose control of everything you care about ? victor : an arrest will not affect me a lot . it 's not gon na bring me to my knees , as i 'm sure you were hoping . if i were you , i 'd worry about your husband . wait until the details of his sordid actions come out . jack : oh . that 's right . that 's why we 're here -- to tell you the good news . victor : what are you talking about ? jack : i went to christine . i made a full confession -- told her all about kelly , all about what happened on the boat . amazing thing -- turns out not one member of that crew died . they all escaped . but then , you knew all that , because you paid them all to disappear -- your effort to keep me in line , your effort to make me think that all their blood was on my hands . well , you know what ? the truth is out now . there will be no charges against me . phyllis : unlike yourself . jack : no , you will be rotting in a cell , paying for your sins for the next 30 or so years . victor : do n't count on it , jack . max : when dad got mad , i was upset . so i said that stuff to my teacher because i was angry , not because it was true . dad 's never hurt me . i 'm really sorry . stitch : hey , i 'm -- i 'm sorry , too , son . i really wish i could start this whole day over again . michael : in light of everything we 've heard , along with the total lack of physical evidence of abuse , i do n't see why the child should n't be released to his father . sarah : you know i ca n't do that without a judge 's approval . for now , dr. rayburn 's son needs to remain with me . let 's go , max . max : dad -- stitch : everything 's gon na be fine , buddy . okay ? hey . sarah : dr. rayburn ... stitch : just give me a second , please ? hey . hey , you , uh , need to go with sarah here . and she 's gon na ask you a couple more questions . that 's it . and i 'm gon na come and pick you up , all right ? it 's all gon na work out , all right , champ ? if i thought something bad was gon na happen to you , there 's no way i 'd let you go with her . 'cause i 'm never gon na let anybody hurt you . i 'm always gon na protect you . you know that , right ? come here . sarah : i ca n't allow that . stitch : hey . i love you . max : i love you , too . stitch : [ crying ] victoria : look , if everyone is united against him , then he wo n't hold all of the power the way that he used to . i 'm just trying to think ahead and get together a good team for when he goes to prison . nick : if he goes to prison . nikki : look , one way or another , he needs to be forced to step down . he 's -- he 's lost all perspective . in his mind , preserving his legacy at newman is -- is more important than paying for what he 's done . victoria : which is why he was trying to get rid of jack by unleashing marco on everyone . nick : you know , there 's another solution . what if we all just step back and let the company consume dad ? victoria : no , nick . nick : just hear me out . if you ask dad right now what the most important thing to him in the world is , of course he 's gon na say his family . but if none of us are around and he 's truly alone at the top , maybe he 'll realize what he 's thrown away , like an addict finally hitting rock bottom . victor : i do n't intend to see the inside of a cell for very long . phyllis : i know that you 're working very , very hard to get these charges dropped against you , and even if you succeed at that , you are still a loser . because your entire family -- they are through with you ... victor : let me ask you something . phyllis : ... they know what you 're capable of , and they want nothing to do with you , ever . victor : who are you two to judge me ? you have more skeletons in your closet than you can shake a fist at . i can hear them rattle . phyllis : oh . victor : you have dirt on your hands . yet you 're free to roam around , as i will be . jack : you keep telling yourself that . we 'll see you in court . victor : good . do n't come back ! victoria : that is an interesting theory , nick . nick : so , you do n't agree ? nikki : well , hello , elise . elise : nikki . i hope i 'm not interrupting . nikki : oh , not at all . we were just , um -- elise : discussing your family 's legal problems . first adam , then noah , and now victor . nikki : well , it is a difficult time , but i have faith that everything will turn out the way it should . elise : well , sometimes , at times like this , the best we can do is just have faith . right now , i have tremendous faith that everything will turn out exactly the way it 's supposed to . excuse me . phyllis : victor seems quite adamant that he 's not gon na be doing any time . jack : that is the great man 's ego talking . let 's focus on what we decided -- trusting the system to give us justice . phyllis : was that judge moxley ? jack : yeah . walking away from the newman table . phyllis : what were you saying about faith in the judicial system ? sage : you did n't have to order that salad for my benefit . it 's okay to overindulge once in a while . i did n't mean to lecture you . shawn : you did n't say anything wrong . i guess i 'm just kind of touchy . sage : you should be . i did n't mean to overstep . i just -- i just want what 's best for you and the baby . 'cause that little boy inside you right now -- he means so much to me . you have no idea . dylan : you 'll have max back in no time . stitch : [ sighs ] yeah , i know , but ... dylan : but ... what ? what are you worried about ? stitch : this is what i 've wanted for a long time -- max in my life . now he 's in my life , and it 's -- it 's a mess . it 's a total mess . dylan : yeah . it 's gon na take some time . stitch : [ chuckles ] it 's not like it 's gon na get any easier with a baby on the way . it 's times like these i start thinking of my dad . i mean , i 'm -- i 'm sure he started out wanting to be a good father , too , but -- what ? did he just -- did he just get overwhelmed by it all ? dylan : just stop . stop , okay ? do n't ever compare yourself to your old man . you 're a hundred times the father he ever was . i mean , look -- look how you handled the situation today . you did n't lose your temper . you let ms . fox do her job . and max knows that he 's loved and he 's protected . that 's what being a dad is right there . max made a mistake today , but he -- he knows he 's lucky to have you . stitch : it 's gon na take a lot of work to make things right with my kid . dylan : yeah , it is . but you 're gon na do it . and you 're gon na succeed at it . because that 's who you are . michael : with any luck , max will be home for dinner . abby : it wo n't really be over . michael : what do you mean ? abby : child protective services has a file on ben now . does that mean that we 're gon na have a social worker coming after us every time max does n't get his way ? is this what our life looks like now ? michael , [ sighs ] ben and i are having a baby . michael : i know . abby : no . i do n't think you do . i realize that max is just a kid . but if he keeps up like this , i 'm afraid he 's gon na ruin things for our family . phyllis : no wonder victor was so smug in his office . judge moxley probably left just before we got there , working on the details of the agreement to set him free . jack : victor 's obviously got something on judge moxley or her husband . phyllis : still got that faith in the system ? [ cell phone chimes ] nick : what is that ? elise : good afternoon . i 'd like to thank you all for coming to this hastily arranged press conference . i 'm going to make an announcement regarding the upcoming victor newman trial . many years ago , i had a brief affair . and i regret my actions . and i deeply regret the pain that i 've caused not only my husband but my children , having just broken the news to them a short while ago . and you may wonder why i 'm coming forward after all this time . you see , i have an ethical obligation to do so because the man i was having an affair with is victor newman . therefore , i must recuse myself from his case . [ camera shutters clicking ] victor : [ slams laptop ] [ next_on ] neil : i am warning you , son . sure seems like the old hilary to me . jack : apparently a lot has been going on behind my back . summer : natalie was in touch with billy behind our backs . | dylan gets max to admit to the social worker that he exaggerated the truth to his teacher , because he was mad at stitch who never hurt him . the social worker takes max with her until the case is officially closed , but abby worries that max 's false allegations will always hurt the family she and stitch are trying to build together . victoria asks nick to come back to work for newman enterprises once the board votes to oust victor as ceo . nick thinks the best thing to do is for the family to quit the company and see if victor enjoys running the family company without his family . nick tries to persuade sage not to pressure shawn because he fears that she might decide to give her baby to another couple . judge moxley is tired of being blackmailed by victor and nikki every time their family is in trouble with the law , so she holds a press conference to tell everyone she must recuse herself from victor 's case , because they had an affair many years ago . | <s>[INST] victoria : with dad in jail , it 's been so chaotic here . the media wo n't let up . the business pages are nailing newman . and the department heads are bombarding me with questions . i 'm sorry , but i do n't have the answers . nikki : listen to me . i know you can handle this , okay ? you just stay strong , keep your focus , let the world know that even though victor has fallen , the company will not . victoria : yeah , well , we both know it wo n't be that easy . and i keep expecting adam to show up and stake his claim . victor : getting ahead of yourself ? nikki : victor . victoria : you made bail . victor : you probably wish i had n't . steal this company right out from under me , right ? get out of the chair . i have work to do . phyllis : i want you to convince victor to trust you and then brilliantly , masterfully blow the case . i want you to use every legal skill you got to make sure victor newman never sees another blue sky again the rest of his loathsome life . michael : you know what you 're asking me to do , right ? basically give up my career . you 're asking me to betray everything i believe in . phyllis : just settle down . you have been his lawyer before . i am asking you to do that again , but this time , he gets what he deserves . jack : that is not the way to handle the situation with victor . phyllis : on the contrary , jack . it 's the only way . sarah : so , dr. whistler needs to examine you . it wo n't take long . you 're safe , max . there 's nothing to be afraid of . max : okay . sarah : okay . dylan : uh , excuse me , ma'am . detective mcavoy , gcpd . i got the call about max rayburn . sarah : sarah fox , child protective services . dylan : nice to meet you . so , what 's , uh -- what 's the situation ? sarah : well , max told his homeroom teacher his dad 's been mistreating him . that triggered the call to my office . dylan : [ sighs ] sarah : the doctor will examine the boy for any signs of physical abuse or injury , and based on what he finds , we 'll determine our next steps . dylan : okay . um , i understand that this is proper procedure . but i know max 's father , dr. ben rayburn . i mean , we 're friends . we go way back . and i know -- i know that he would never hurt his son . so this whole thing has to be a big misunderstanding . sarah : i hope you 're right , detective . but you can never really know what 's going on inside another person 's home . abby : maybe max 's teacher misunderstood whatever it was he said . stitch : it does n't matter . her takeaway was that i 'm a danger to my kid . and so she 's obligated to report it . so , now the social workers have him , and i do n't know when or if i 'm gon na get him back . nick : sage , come on . sage : nick , answer me . do you want this baby ? i mean , you keep telling me that we should n't get our hopes up and that this adoption process could fall through at the last moment . is that because that 's what you hope will happen ? nick : of course not . sage : then why did you want her to look at the ultrasound ? and why did you ask her if she was sure she did n't want it when she gave you this photo ? nick : sage , giving up her baby has to be the hardest thing she 's ever had to do in her life . i mean , she 's giving us this amazing gift . and i want her to know that we -- we appreciate it and that we 're sensitive to what she 's going through . sage : okay , but being sensitive to that is different than encouraging her to connect with the child . if you keep doing that , if she keeps looking at this baby , then she might become attached to it and she might want it . and ... i want this baby . [ voice breaking ] i want it . i want it , too . healthy choice believes nick : i did not mean to upset you . i know how much you want this baby . i want it , too . sage : you sure ? nick : yes . we 're in this together , 100 % . sage : i 'm sorry that i doubted you . [ chuckles ] nick : i guess i accept your apology . sage : [ laughs ] now , you know , i told you i 'd be strong enough to handle this process , and i am . okay ? i really am . it 's just -- [ sighs ] it was an emotional day , you know ? nick : yeah . sage : i mean , we saw this little one . nick : he 's pretty cute . sage : [ chuckles ] and we heard his heart beating . we 're just so close to having our little boy again . nick : let 's go home . [ door opens ] oh . hey , shawn . what are you still doing here ? shawn : i forgot my purse . i -- there it is . nick : oh . here we go . shawn : thanks . nick : sure . shawn : so , why are you still here ? everything okay ? sage : oh , yeah , yeah . we were just talking . you know , we 're just really excited about the baby , and we 're so appreciative of what you 're doing for us . hey . can we show you ? you want to have a bite with us ? shawn : you might be shocked by this , but i am a little hungry . sage : [ chuckles ] nick : uh , let 's -- let 's go . sage : after you . abby : okay , babe . do n't panic . you did nothing wrong . we will get this all straightened out soon enough . just stay calm . can you do that for me ? [ cell phone rings ] stitch : mac , thank god . w - what 's going with max ? dylan : hey , i 'm at memorial right now . the social worker assigned to his case brought him by here to get him checked out . stitch : okay . any idea who ? dylan : from what i heard , a dr. whistler . does that sound right ? stitch : pediatrics . he 's good . that 's something , at least . dylan : okay , well , i - i 'm sticking close . i 'm doing everything i can to help , buddy . stitch : but this may be out of your hands , out of my hands , too . dylan : well , you know how the system works . once a kid 's in , they have to act as if the claim is true until proven otherwise . it 's just to protect the kid . stitch : right , right . i understand , but it does n't make this any less of nightmare . dylan : i get it . did you hire the attorney yet ? stitch : no , i - i barely had time to tell abby . dylan : okay , stitch , i 'm telling you right now , you need to hire an attorney . phyllis : michael is the only one we can trust . he 's the only person who 's gon na make sure victor pays for what he 's done . jack : red , christine -- phyllis : i know what you 're gon na say . that we need to trust christine . we need to put our faith in her . and you know what ? i have about zero confidence in her ability to make these charges stick . she plays everything by the book , and that ai n't gon na work this time . we have to have somebody who 's as down and dirty as victor is . michael : oh . oh , and naturally , i 'm the first person to come to mind because i have no problem acting in bad faith , you know , oh , possibly causing a mistrial , jeopardizing my legal license , and all the while leaving myself open to a massive lawsuit . no , it 's just another day at the mines for good old michael . jack : listen to your friend . phyllis : victor , if we do not stand up to him , will use his money and power and connections to get this case against him dropped . even if christine were competent enough , she would never stand a chance . [ cell phone vibrates ] jack : victor made bail . a million bucks . phyllis : what am -- what am i saying here ? i - i mean , it 's already happening , michael . get in there . stop him . michael : no , no , no . not doing it . victoria : well , someone needed to be in charge while you were in jail -- dealing with the press and the day - to - day operations . victor : this is the closest you will ever get to running this company . i 'm not in the habit of rewarding traitors . nikki : victor , this is your fault , not victoria 's , so do n't go turning it around on her . victor : she fed me to the wolves . nikki : when paul showed up , what was she supposed to do ? victor : what do you think she was supposed to have done ? been loyal to her father . victoria : oh , sure . yeah . i was just supposed to ignore your immoral behavior . i was just supposed to bury evidence and become a part of your conspiracy . perfect idea , dad . i love you , but i hate what you 've done . and i do n't want to cover for your lies anymore . you hurt people -- jack , phyllis , ben . victor : will you stop it ! i hurt jack and phyllis ? ! those two obnoxious people ? are you serious ? ! you knifed me in the back . that 's what you did . you 're every bit as traitorous and deceitful as your brother adam , god help you . nikki : how dare you compare our daughter to him ? victor : there 's the door . get out . i got work to do . nikki : not for long . victor : what are you talking about ? you do n't even know what you 're talking about . victoria : actually , she does know what she 's talking about . victor : what ? victoria : i 'm gathering the board of directors . we 're gon na hold a vote to have you thrown out of newman . sage : i 'm surprised you wanted to come here instead of the athletic club . shawn : i 've never been there . i like this place . nick : oh , yeah . best hot chocolate in town . sage : [ laughs ] well , next time , we 'll go there , and you 'll like it . it 's got this great restaurant and spa and all these fun children activities like swimming and peewee basketball and arts and crafts . shawn : i bet the baby will really enjoy that when he 's old enough . sage : yeah . definitely . but the favorite place will definitely be the ranch . shawn : ranch ? sage : mm - hmm . oh , um , nick 's family lives on a ranch , and they have , um , horses and ducks and ponds and trees and ... shawn : man , that sounds fantastic . nothing like where i grew up . nick : uh , you know what ? why do n't we order ? sage : yeah . shawn : i need to make a pit stop first . excuse me . sage : hey , why did n't you chime in , talk up the ranch a little bit ? nick : i just feel like we should ease off a little . i mean , we do n't need to give her the hard sell . shawn already picked us . sage : oh , hard sell ? really ? i 'm just giving her the highlights of the things we can give this child that she ca n't , you know , so if she ever changes her mind , she 'll remember this conversation and realize what a mistake it would be to walk away . victor : after we almost collapse , i restructure the company , i put more family members on the board of directors , and this is the thanks i get ? victoria : [ sighs ] victor : you two are turning my own flesh and blood against me ? victoria : i 'm doing what 's best for newman enterprises . i 'm looking out for the interests of this company . if there 's a unanimous vote -- victor : i will not and can not be removed as the head of this company ! you got it ? ! nikki : victor , listen to me . the company is already suffering because of your arrest . victor : you do n't know what the hell you 're talking about . get out ! nikki : you have to accept what everybody else knows . you 're not in any condition to be running this company now or the future because you will be in prison . victor : you are traitors . that 's all you are ! phyllis : i thought you were my friend . i thought i could count on you . michael : not like this . phyllis : so , you 're okay with victor being acquitted ? jack : michael did not say that , and you know that . michael : i am thoroughly disgusted with victor . i believe he should be punished as severely as the judicial system and current social mores will allow . phyllis : oh , really ? then what 's the hang - up ? because this is about justice . is n't that what you were sworn to do ? jack : there are limits . michael : i have to operate within the statutes , you know . phyllis : victor wo n't . he will use the law however he wants unless we stand up to him , unless we have somebody as smart and cagey as he is . jack : you are setting up michael to be disbarred . you say he 's your friend ? how can you ask him to do something like this ? phyllis : victor used our lives as a plaything . he did not care about us . and i 'm pretty sure he felt justified with what he did , and he 's do it again in a heartbeat . if you do n't believe me , ask him . ask him if he even had a shred of remorse for what he put us through . now , michael , you are in a position to punish him for it . and you 're talking about ethics ? jack : there are a lot of people here , a lot of ears . now , take a deep breath . phyllis : i am breathing . michael : look . i love you , phyllis . i support you and jack . i wish i could help you , but you are asking too much of me . now , if you 'll excuse me , i 'm gon na go see what dr. rayburn and abby want . hey . abby : hi . i hope you do n't mind that we tracked you down , but we needed to see you right away . michael : i assume you need a lawyer . stitch : i - i 'm scared , michael . i could lose my son . will you please help me ? michael : okay , okay . let 's -- let 's grab a seat and start from the beginning . jack : i know you are desperate to see that victor is punished . you got no business pressuring michael to do that . phyllis : well , he obviously is not gon na cooperate , so we need to think of plan `` b , `` okay ? whatever works . jack : no . you need to stop thinking this way . phyllis : do n't tell me to back off . it makes me feel like you do n't give a damn what happens to victor . jack : i am insulted that you would even suggest that . furthermore , i have had it with your reckless attitude . phyllis : well , you 're not the only one who 's had it . jack : wait , wait , wait , wait . we 're not going anywhere until we talk this through . stitch : hi , there . hi . i 'm -- i 'm ben rayburn . this is my wife , abby . i understand my son , max , is here . i 'd like to see him . sarah : i 'm afraid that wo n't be possible . michael : uh , michael baldwin , dr. rayburn 's attorney . sarah : sarah fox . i believe we 've met , though it 's been a while . michael : parker vs. parker . sarah : good memory . michael : mm - hmm . [ both chuckle ] stitch : okay , look , i understand that i ca n't see max at the moment , but i am greatly concerned about his welfare . surely you can give me some information . his physical exam -- the results from it , assuming it 's been completed . sarah : the exam is over . stitch : and whistler did n't find anything , did he ? because i 've never , would never lay a hand on my son . you -- you -- you 've got to believe me . sarah : you might want to explain to your client how this works . michael : oh , i think dr. rayburn just wants you to hear his side of the story . dylan : hey , max . i 'm not sure you remember me . i 'm a friend of you dad 's . my name is dylan . i 'm a detective , and i - i came to see how you 're doing . max : i did n't know this was all gon na happen . dylan : uh , i 'm sure you did n't . i 'm glad to hear your exam went okay . no bruises or anything too scary . max : when can i get out of here ? dylan : well , that i 'm not really sure about because there 's a lot of questions that still need to be answered . max : am i in trouble ? dylan : you 're not . but your dad might be . max : maybe he deserves it . dylan : [ sighs ] i know that you 've had a few , uh , rough months , right ? with your mom passing , coming to a different country with your dad , his new wife , and now a baby 's on the way . i mean , that 's a lot of change in a short amount of time . and , yeah , your dad -- your dad -- he may not be perfect , but he 's doing everything he can to make things work . and i know he 's doing that because i know that he loves you . but there are some people who are questioning that . and they 're wondering if you are n't safe with him . max : what are they gon na do ? dylan : well , if , uh -- if they think you ca n't go home with him , they 're gon na have to find a new place for you to live . it 's called foster care . max : you mean i 'd have to go live with strangers . dylan : the social worker , uh , the people at your school , the doctors , the police -- we 're all worried about you on account of what you told your teacher . i mean , this is a very serious situation . is there something you want to tell me ? phyllis : i do n't want to hear anything you have to say . jack : listen to me . i am trying to keep you out of trouble . look at yourself . you are consumed with revenge . you are only gon na hurt yourself and all of the people you care about . i love you too much to let that happen . phyllis : if victor weasels out of this , it 'll kill me , jack . jack : our testimony and the mile - high stack of evidence is all the ammunition we need . your story , my story , the story of everyone else that victor 's deceit affected -- he 's not going to skate this time . this whole town is sick with what he 's done . his own family 's turned on him . if he 's alone , he is not going to escape justice . phyllis : you make me want to believe that . jack : do believe that . things have changed for us . we 're going to get justice . he ca n't control us anymore . and he certainly ca n't hurt us . phyllis : okay . we 'll try it your way . jack : good . phyllis : okay . victor : thank you for coming by so promptly . can i get you some coffee or something stronger , maybe ? elise : what i 'd like is for you to get to the point . you summoned me here . i think we both know why . victor : i was happy to hear that you were ... assigned to be the judge in my case . i think we both understand what that means . elise : i think you 're blackmailing me . again . victor : mm . elise : i think you 're going to keep holding our indiscretion from many years ago over my head . victor : now , do n't you think it is best if indiscretions remain discreet ? elise : and whenever your family needs to get out of some kind of trouble , you 're just going to ... threaten me with something that happened decades ago . and i just fall into line . victor : now , you realize , of course , that your family has benefited from my silence . so , i think you understand what i 'm expecting of you . elise : yes , victor . i know exactly what i have to do . victor : good . all right . thank you for coming by . [ door opens ] victoria : even if we vote to oust him , it 's only gon na be symbolic . because you know he 's just gon na defy us and keep running things anyway . nikki : temporarily , perhaps . but he 's going to stand trial , and even though he thinks he 's gon na get off scot - free , i do n't see that happening , not this time . victoria : oh , really ? then what is judge moxley doing here ? i bet he 's meeting with her downstairs . nikki : [ sighs ] victoria : he 's working an angle , mom . i know it . nikki : look , whether he 's convicted or not , he is finally going to suffer the consequences of his actions , which means stepping down from c.e.o . and that also means you stick to your plan to step up and run things . victoria : [ sighs ] i know that . i do n't know how i 'm gon na run the company while battling dad and possibly adam , not to mention planning a wedding and getting married ... not without some backup , anyway . nick : we 're walking a fine line with shawn . i think you should just chill out a little bit so you do n't come across as manipulative . sage : re -- [ cell phone rings ] nick : sorry . look , this is vick . i got to take this . hey , what 's going on ? victoria : hi . i 'm with mom at the top of the tower . can you join us ? nick : uh , now ? victoria : yes , now , nick . please . it 's really important . nick : uh ... okay . yeah . i 'm on my way . look , i am so sorry . something 's come up with mom and my sister , so i got to take off . sage : that 's all right . shawn and i will be just fine . nick : good . i 'll see you at home ? sage : yeah . [ smooches ] nick : it was great to see you , shawn . shawn : you , too , nick . nikki : you see ? you pick up the phone , call your brother , he drops whatever he 's doing , and he 's on his way to meet us . victoria : yeah , well -- nikki : everything is going to be fine . victoria : nick does n't know what i 'm about to ask him . once he finds out , then we 'll see how helpful he 's gon na be . stitch : max 's mother kept us out of touch for a long time . we 've only recently reconnected . sarah : i am aware of the family history . stitch : then you 're aware of how traumatic this has been for my son . look , we 've been doing everything we can to help max adjust , but he 's really been struggling , acting out . sarah : trouble at school , poor grades , getting into fights -- all classic indications that there 's trouble at home . michael : well , what are the specific claims against my client ? sarah : max 's teacher reported that he was extremely emotional , yelling , in tears , said his dad hates him , thinks he 's , quote , `` nothing but a problem , `` has a really bad temper that he 's always taking out on max . stitch : max had gotten into another fight at the playground today , which led to an argument . i 'd also just found out that my sister 's death was n't a suicide , that she had been killed , murdered . i was reeling from that , and i raised my voice , said some things i wish i had n't trying to make him understand . abby : it 's true . i was there . i saw the whole thing . michael : it does n't appear the child was ever in any real danger . sarah : i 'm afraid i 'm gon na need more than that to close my investigation . dylan : hey . can you all come in here for a minute ? sarah : detective , this is not a good idea . dr. rayburn should n't -- dylan : max wants to clear everything up . come on in . stitch : max , buddy . dylan : go ahead , max . max : when i talked to my teacher , i exaggerated . i made things sound worse than they really were . sage : [ clears throat ] i think i 'm gon na have the reuben with an extra pickle . what about you ? shawn : i 'm dying for another one of those doughnuts i got earlier . sage : [ laughs ] oh , i remember those cravings . when i was pregnant , i wanted jelly doughnuts all the time . shawn : really ? same thing ? sage : yes ! all the time . shawn : they 're the best , right ? sage : yes . but , of course , you know , i realized i could n't have them all the time . i mean , when you 're pregnant , you have to make healthy choices because you 're eating for two . shawn : i know it 's important to eat right . i 'm not living on doughnuts . i 'm eating plenty of good things , and i 'm exercising and taking my vitamins . so , you do n't need to come down on me , 'cause i 'm not gon na do anything to hurt the baby . nick : i 'm okay . i 'm assuming this has something to do with dad . nikki : yeah , well , he made bail , went straight to his office , and proceeded to say some very obnoxious things to your sister before he kicked both of us out . nick : and is any of this supposed to surprise me ? victoria : nick , dad is living in some bizarre alternative reality . he thinks he 's gon na be running newman indefinitely , despite the fact that he 's probably going to be going to prison , which means i have the battle on my hands of keeping the company afloat . nick : okay . i think i know where this is going , and as much as i sympathize with what you 're up against -- victoria : oh , my goodness . i ca n't believe you 're turning me down . nick : vick , i need to focus on my own family right now , okay ? with everything that 's been going on with dad and -- and noah , i just have n't had time to tell either one of you this , but sage and i are adopting a baby . in fact , we 've already met the birth mother . nikki : what ? i had no idea you were considering that . victoria : i did n't realize that , either . nick : yeah , well , we 've tried to keep it quiet . and in all honesty , i did not know it was gon na be moving this fast . nikki : well , honey , i - i think it 's wonderful that you want to adopt . nick : i think i hear a `` but `` coming . nikki : do you think that sage is ready ? nick : sage needs this . so do i . victoria : okay . i understand that . but i need you , too . nick : vick -- victoria : look , i know the timing is lousy , but newman is in crisis . please just consider coming back to help . victor : that board can vote all day long . they are not gon na remove me , all right ? you better not walk into that meeting hoping to get rid of me . it 's not gon na happen . phyllis : what 's it feel like to lose control of everything you care about ? victor : an arrest will not affect me a lot . it 's not gon na bring me to my knees , as i 'm sure you were hoping . if i were you , i 'd worry about your husband . wait until the details of his sordid actions come out . jack : oh . that 's right . that 's why we 're here -- to tell you the good news . victor : what are you talking about ? jack : i went to christine . i made a full confession -- told her all about kelly , all about what happened on the boat . amazing thing -- turns out not one member of that crew died . they all escaped . but then , you knew all that , because you paid them all to disappear -- your effort to keep me in line , your effort to make me think that all their blood was on my hands . well , you know what ? the truth is out now . there will be no charges against me . phyllis : unlike yourself . jack : no , you will be rotting in a cell , paying for your sins for the next 30 or so years . victor : do n't count on it , jack . max : when dad got mad , i was upset . so i said that stuff to my teacher because i was angry , not because it was true . dad 's never hurt me . i 'm really sorry . stitch : hey , i 'm -- i 'm sorry , too , son . i really wish i could start this whole day over again . michael : in light of everything we 've heard , along with the total lack of physical evidence of abuse , i do n't see why the child should n't be released to his father . sarah : you know i ca n't do that without a judge 's approval . for now , dr. rayburn 's son needs to remain with me . let 's go , max . max : dad -- stitch : everything 's gon na be fine , buddy . okay ? hey . sarah : dr. rayburn ... stitch : just give me a second , please ? hey . hey , you , uh , need to go with sarah here . and she 's gon na ask you a couple more questions . that 's it . and i 'm gon na come and pick you up , all right ? it 's all gon na work out , all right , champ ? if i thought something bad was gon na happen to you , there 's no way i 'd let you go with her . 'cause i 'm never gon na let anybody hurt you . i 'm always gon na protect you . you know that , right ? come here . sarah : i ca n't allow that . stitch : hey . i love you . max : i love you , too . stitch : [ crying ] victoria : look , if everyone is united against him , then he wo n't hold all of the power the way that he used to . i 'm just trying to think ahead and get together a good team for when he goes to prison . nick : if he goes to prison . nikki : look , one way or another , he needs to be forced to step down . he 's -- he 's lost all perspective . in his mind , preserving his legacy at newman is -- is more important than paying for what he 's done . victoria : which is why he was trying to get rid of jack by unleashing marco on everyone . nick : you know , there 's another solution . what if we all just step back and let the company consume dad ? victoria : no , nick . nick : just hear me out . if you ask dad right now what the most important thing to him in the world is , of course he 's gon na say his family . but if none of us are around and he 's truly alone at the top , maybe he 'll realize what he 's thrown away , like an addict finally hitting rock bottom . victor : i do n't intend to see the inside of a cell for very long . phyllis : i know that you 're working very , very hard to get these charges dropped against you , and even if you succeed at that , you are still a loser . because your entire family -- they are through with you ... victor : let me ask you something . phyllis : ... they know what you 're capable of , and they want nothing to do with you , ever . victor : who are you two to judge me ? you have more skeletons in your closet than you can shake a fist at . i can hear them rattle . phyllis : oh . victor : you have dirt on your hands . yet you 're free to roam around , as i will be . jack : you keep telling yourself that . we 'll see you in court . victor : good . do n't come back ! victoria : that is an interesting theory , nick . nick : so , you do n't agree ? nikki : well , hello , elise . elise : nikki . i hope i 'm not interrupting . nikki : oh , not at all . we were just , um -- elise : discussing your family 's legal problems . first adam , then noah , and now victor . nikki : well , it is a difficult time , but i have faith that everything will turn out the way it should . elise : well , sometimes , at times like this , the best we can do is just have faith . right now , i have tremendous faith that everything will turn out exactly the way it 's supposed to . excuse me . phyllis : victor seems quite adamant that he 's not gon na be doing any time . jack : that is the great man 's ego talking . let 's focus on what we decided -- trusting the system to give us justice . phyllis : was that judge moxley ? jack : yeah . walking away from the newman table . phyllis : what were you saying about faith in the judicial system ? sage : you did n't have to order that salad for my benefit . it 's okay to overindulge once in a while . i did n't mean to lecture you . shawn : you did n't say anything wrong . i guess i 'm just kind of touchy . sage : you should be . i did n't mean to overstep . i just -- i just want what 's best for you and the baby . 'cause that little boy inside you right now -- he means so much to me . you have no idea . dylan : you 'll have max back in no time . stitch : [ sighs ] yeah , i know , but ... dylan : but ... what ? what are you worried about ? stitch : this is what i 've wanted for a long time -- max in my life . now he 's in my life , and it 's -- it 's a mess . it 's a total mess . dylan : yeah . it 's gon na take some time . stitch : [ chuckles ] it 's not like it 's gon na get any easier with a baby on the way . it 's times like these i start thinking of my dad . i mean , i 'm -- i 'm sure he started out wanting to be a good father , too , but -- what ? did he just -- did he just get overwhelmed by it all ? dylan : just stop . stop , okay ? do n't ever compare yourself to your old man . you 're a hundred times the father he ever was . i mean , look -- look how you handled the situation today . you did n't lose your temper . you let ms . fox do her job . and max knows that he 's loved and he 's protected . that 's what being a dad is right there . max made a mistake today , but he -- he knows he 's lucky to have you . stitch : it 's gon na take a lot of work to make things right with my kid . dylan : yeah , it is . but you 're gon na do it . and you 're gon na succeed at it . because that 's who you are . michael : with any luck , max will be home for dinner . abby : it wo n't really be over . michael : what do you mean ? abby : child protective services has a file on ben now . does that mean that we 're gon na have a social worker coming after us every time max does n't get his way ? is this what our life looks like now ? michael , [ sighs ] ben and i are having a baby . michael : i know . abby : no . i do n't think you do . i realize that max is just a kid . but if he keeps up like this , i 'm afraid he 's gon na ruin things for our family . phyllis : no wonder victor was so smug in his office . judge moxley probably left just before we got there , working on the details of the agreement to set him free . jack : victor 's obviously got something on judge moxley or her husband . phyllis : still got that faith in the system ? [ cell phone chimes ] nick : what is that ? elise : good afternoon . i 'd like to thank you all for coming to this hastily arranged press conference . i 'm going to make an announcement regarding the upcoming victor newman trial . many years ago , i had a brief affair . and i regret my actions . and i deeply regret the pain that i 've caused not only my husband but my children , having just broken the news to them a short while ago . and you may wonder why i 'm coming forward after all this time . you see , i have an ethical obligation to do so because the man i was having an affair with is victor newman . therefore , i must recuse myself from his case . [ camera shutters clicking ] victor : [ slams laptop ] [ next_on ] neil : i am warning you , son . sure seems like the old hilary to me . jack : apparently a lot has been going on behind my back . summer : natalie was in touch with billy behind our backs .Summarize.[/INST]dylan gets max to admit to the social worker that he exaggerated the truth to his teacher , because he was mad at stitch who never hurt him . the social worker takes max with her until the case is officially closed , but abby worries that max 's false allegations will always hurt the family she and stitch are trying to build together . victoria asks nick to come back to work for newman enterprises once the board votes to oust victor as ceo . nick thinks the best thing to do is for the family to quit the company and see if victor enjoys running the family company without his family . nick tries to persuade sage not to pressure shawn because he fears that she might decide to give her baby to another couple . judge moxley is tired of being blackmailed by victor and nikki every time their family is in trouble with the law , so she holds a press conference to tell everyone she must recuse herself from victor 's case , because they had an affair many years ago .</s> | 1,569 |
nash : you know what ? the other day , she said , `` i love you , mommy , `` which is kind of weird because she was talking to me , but she said it , i swear . jessica : she 's amazing . i miss her so much . nash : yeah . well , i just talked to dr. harrison and word is that you are going to be home soon , and then you 'll be able to hear her say those magical words yourself . that was supposed to be good news -- what 's the matter ? jessica : i do n't want to go home .

[ scene_break ] cristian : this is crazy . i 'm not swearing on my mom 's life . jessica : because you ca n't . because if you were n't jealous you would have no problem saying it . i mean , they 're just words , cris . go ahead , say them . i was right . you are jealous . and the only reason that a person gets jealous is when they want something for themselves or someone . cristian : do n't put words in my mouth , jess . i never said anything like that . jessica : i did n't have to . your silence told me everything i need to know . well , i better go get ready for the prom . see you later .

[ scene_break ] clint : viki , i 'm at the point now where i do n't know what 's best for jessica . i mean , do we let her continue to try and re - create what she 's lost and actually treat her like a teenager who 's going to a prom ? if we do that , how long does this go on ? i mean , next year at this time are we gon na put her in college , have her sleep in the dorm ? viki : and what about bree ? she misses her mother so much . when is jessica going to be the responsible adult that she needs to be ? clint : i have all those same questions , and i do n't think any of them are gon na be resolved tonight . viki : well , that 's not necessarily true . they actually might . see , marty feels that this night is somehow critical for jessica . clint : well , it 's certainly important to her . viki : yeah . here 's my problem . if this prom does not turn out to be everything that jessica hoped for , what 's going to happen to her ? is she going to be stuck in the past forever because of that ?

[ scene_break ] cristian : this is crazy . i 'm not swearing on my mom 's life . jessica : because you ca n't . because if you were n't jealous you would have no problem saying it . i mean , they 're just words , cris . go ahead , say them . i was right . you are jealous . and the only reason that a person gets jealous is when they want something for themselves or someone . cristian : do n't put words in my mouth , jess . i never said anything like that . jessica : i did n't have to . your silence told me everything i need to know . well , i better go get ready for the prom . see you later .
