[ scene_break ] noah : summer , you absolutely did the right thing . if fen had run , the cops would have caught up with him , and he 'd be even more screwed . summer : yeah , i know . i tried to explain that to him at the police station , but he was so mad , and ... i do n't blame him . i really care about him . noah : i know you do . summer : and now he hates me . noah : i doubt that . summer : no , he said that i betrayed him . i was just trying to help him . why does n't he get that ? noah : you know , i used to wonder the same thing when i was with adriana , and i realized that when you try to help somebody that 's committed a crime , it comes back to bite you . summer : yeah , well , she was nuts and dangerous , so i 'm very glad for your sake that that ended . noah : i mean , it did n't really end . i was just over there getting a cup of coffee and turned around , and she was gone . summer : well , that 's an end , and i 'm glad . noah : well , i did some pretty crazy stuff trying to keep her from getting arrested , and it turned out to be a disaster , but you were smart , summer . you did n't make the same mistake with fen , and he may not realize it right now , but he 's really lucky to have a friend like you . summer : so , are you saying that if you were in my position , you would have done the same thing ? noah : absolutely . [ scene_break ] lauren : is there a card ? michael : nope . i did n't order anything . did you ? lauren : no . you know , your mother was just in town . maybe this is a belated christmas or anniversary gift . michael : gloria takes credit for a lot of things she has nothing to do with . it is very unlike her to send anything without a card . lauren : yeah , that 's very true . so , are you gon na open it ? michael : all right . [ sighs ] it 's a cake . lauren : what ? let me see . michael : `` forget me not . `` lauren : [ sighs ] michael : any idea who sent it ? lauren : yes . carmine .

[ scene_break ] chloe : married ... to adam ... again . i mean , she 's only been divorced from dylan for , what -- five minutes ? chelsea : okay , i did not say that i was marrying adam . i said that he proposed , but it was n't serious . kevin : i do n't get it . did he ask or not ? chloe : [ scoffs ] chelsea : well , yeah , it was just sort of offhanded . chloe : what do you mean , `` offhanded `` ? chelsea : well , i had just gotten the papers finalizing my divorce from dylan , and adam made a comment that now we could get married . but he said it in a sort of nonchalant way , so i questioned him about it , and he said that he was just messing around . kevin : huh . then why are we even talking about it ? chloe : if , hypothetically , he re - popped the question , what would your answer be ? chelsea : truthfully , i do n't know . but i do n't want whatever happens between adam and me to affect my relationship with you . please ... [ connor coos ] chelsea : ... just respect that it 's my life and be there for me as a friend , regardless of what i decide about my future with adam ? chloe : i just want you to be happy . marry him . do n't marry him . we 're still gon na be best friends . chelsea : thank you . all right , i 'm gon na go get a refill . can i get you guys anything ? kevin : no , i 'm good . chloe : i 'm good . we 're good . [ connor coos ] kevin : so , uh , what was that about ? did you -- did you just give your okay for her to remarry ... him ? chloe : listen , he makes my skin crawl , but she 's obviously into him . kevin : so , this does n't bother you ? chloe : no , of course it bothers me , but she 's not gon na hear my objections . i mean , she thinks that he 's a changed man . kevin : the only thing that 's changed about him is , uh ... his winter wardrobe . chloe : you -- do you think that he 's capable of changing ? kevin : a guy like that -- after the things he 's done ? chloe : you 've done things . kevin : [ sighs ] fine . you know , even if that guy does turn over a new leaf , there -- there 's something about him -- the way he looks at you -- chloe : i know . it 's like he wants to eat you for dinner . kevin : yes , with some fava beans and a nice chianti . that 's just what i was going for . chloe : [ chuckles ] listen , if i thought that he would physically hurt someone , i would n't let him near connor or chelsea , but i just do n't believe that he can commit to anyone but himself . but you know what ? that 's -- that 's chelsea 's thing . she 's gon na have to figure that out herself . kevin : hopefully sooner , rather than later . chloe : listen , if they do make it legal , i give it three months . kevin : you never know . there 's more reason for them to make it work . they have a kid now . chloe : yeah . and that kid has me . [ scene_break ] jack : i want you to know i take something like this very seriously . adam : i hoped you would . jack : there are responsibilities here we can not afford to be cavalier about . adam : i completely agree , which is one of the many reasons why i 'm coming to you . i want to make certain that you would protect my family in the event that i was gone . jack : okay , before i agree to anything , i need to know all the facts , and i have a feeling you 're withholding something . what are -- is this really about ? you 're young . you 're healthy . connor 's healthy . you and chelsea are together . what could you possibly have to worry about ? adam : promise me you will protect my family . jack : okay , now you 're starting to scare me . why do you need me to look out for your family ? are you in some kind of trouble ? are you in danger ? adam : no . no . jack : then where is this coming from ? adam : chelsea got me thinking . jack : thinking what ? adam : that connor needs to be protected ... in the event that we 're not there . and under no circumstances do i want chloe raising my son . jack : wait , wait . why would she ? adam : [ sighs ] chelsea has decided that she wants chloe to be my son 's godmother . it 's very important to her , and in light of what has happened with billy and chloe , i understand it , and i told her that i was okay with it . jack : but you 're not okay with it at all . adam : that woman has issues . jack : well , yes , she 's had her moments . adam : i 'm fairly certain that she was the one who was behind this whole paternity lie with the baby . um , so that should give you some inkling of how much she respects me . jack : okay , i can see where that would build some resentment on your part . adam : okay , look , but that issue aside , i do not want , under any circumstances , my son to fall prey to my father , okay ? i do n't want him in his life under any circumstances . now , he would fight chelsea . he 'd fight chloe with all the lawyers in the world and all the money that he took . jack : wait , wait , wait . i - i do n't know where this is going . how do i fit in ? adam : i want you to be my son 's godfather . [ scene_break ] chloe : [ talking baby talk ] [ chuckles ] kevin : hey , so , when you say that the kid has you , what , exactly , do you mean by that ? chloe : chelsea asked me to be connor 's godmother . kevin : wow . really ? chloe : yeah . is n't it amazing ? and i - i told her that i 'm gon na take care of him like he 's my very own . kevin : even though he 's not . chloe : yeah , but that 's what godmothers do . i mean , they love them , and they spoil them , and they take care of them in case the mother is n't capable . kevin : chloe , chelsea 's very capable . chloe : no , i understand that , but , you know , something could happen -- an illness or an accident . kevin : chloe . chloe : look , all i 'm saying is that you ca n't predict the future , and you have to be prepared . what 's wrong with that ? kevin : nothing ... if that 's all it is . chloe : that 's -- that 's all it is . i -- can you please stop making an issue out of this every time it comes up ? please stop worrying about me . chelsea : uh - oh . what 's kevin done now ? chloe : nothing . i was just telling him that you asked me to be connor 's godmother and how seriously i 'm taking it . chelsea : adam and i could n't have made a better choice . we owe you so much . we just wanted to show our appreciation . kevin : godmother . it 's a very important job . chloe : it 's not a job . it 's a commitment -- a commitment for life . and i am gon na be connected to this little guy forever . chelsea : it 's a relief to know that , no matter what happens , our son will always be loved and taken care of . [ scene_break ] lauren : all right , so what did he say ? michael : well , according to our doorman , there has been no delivery for us since before new year 's . lauren : [ sighs ] michael : it must have been a mistake . whoever dropped that cake off left it in front of the wrong apartment . [ sighs ] sweetheart , look , where is this fear coming from ? lauren : [ sighs ] michael : i mean , he ca n't hurt us anymore , especially not by sending us baked goods . this is irrational . lauren : i know it 's ridiculous , but i had a dream . i had a nightmare , michael . michael : all right . and carmine was in it ? lauren : yes . michael : what did he do ? lauren : nothing . michael : what did he say ? lauren : nothing . he -- he was just there . michael : where was he in this dream ? fenmore : where was who ? michael : no one . just an old acquaintance of your mother she ran into . fenmore : are you talking about carmine ? michael : it 's not likely that anyone would run into him . why would you say that ? fenmore : because you 're using that tone you use when you talk about him . lauren : okay , let 's just -- let 's stop discussing him . fenmore : something 's obviously wrong . what -- what -- what happened ? lauren : somebody sent me that cake . fenmore : and why would a cake upset you ? `` forget me not . `` it 's -- it 's not for you . it 's for me .

[ scene_break ] lauren : what are you talking about ? who would send you a cake ? fenmore : it 's not a cake . it 's a message ... from womack . michael : womack -- the convict womack ? fenmore : when the other guys in my block found out whose son i was , they cornered me in the yard . they started beating the crap out of me . lauren : oh , my god . fenmore : yeah , womack came along , and he made them back off . if he had n't , they probably would have killed me . he 's obviously making sure that i do n't forget that . lauren : why did n't you tell us this earlier ? fenmore : honestly , i - i did n't want to worry you . lauren : oh , fen . this could be very serious . michael : wait . so , the message on this cake -- what does that mean ? fenmore : well , it means that i owe him for saving me . he made sure i knew it before i got released . lauren : and this womack -- he 's still behind bars , right ? fenmore : i think so . he did say that he 's getting out soon . lauren : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] alex : you 're walking in dangerous territory ... getting close to noah or anyone else . courtney : okay , well , i do n't need a lecture from you . alex : you sure about that ? courtney : yeah , i know what i 'm doing . alex : listen to me . this is important ... for the both of us , so do n't screw it up ! noah : hey . everything okay ? alex : noah . hi . yeah . i was just telling your friend here that , uh , you know , just to be careful around the park . we 've had a lot of reports of muggings and everything . noah : it 's broad daylight . alex : yeah , well , purse snatchers do n't really care about that . it 's a very wealthy area , so they 're out on the prowl , and a young woman like this ... courtney : okay , i heard you , detective rodriguez , loud and clear . ale it 's chavez . just want to make sure you guys are okay . courtney : mm . alex : see you later . courtney : so , i 'm a woman , and i ca n't take care of myself ? give me a break . you know , it 's , um , a little colder than i thought . you want to go get some coffee ? noah : sure . and then you can tell me what that was really about . [ scene_break ] jack : adam , i 'm -- i 'm -- i 'm flattered that you would think of me that way . i am . adam : just tell me you 'll do it , jack . please . jack : what are you worried is going to happen to you ? adam : just -- just chalk it up to having a son and having a new outlook on life . jack : on one hand , adam , i can count the number of times i have seen you this agitated . in every case , there 's something serious going on . adam : so just tell me that my son will always be protected . jack : as his godfather ? adam , i - i -- there 's only so much i can do , particularly if his grandfather decides to get ugly and litigious . adam : which is exactly why i want to draw up papers and make sure that you 're connor 's legal guardian . i do n't want any ambiguities where the responsibility of connor is involved . i know it 's a lot to ask . jack : [ sighs ] the -- let me get this straight . this -- is this really just about peace of mind , just in case , or are you in some kind of trouble ? if you are , i want to help . adam : i have a family now , okay ? and that -- that 's everything to me , and i 'll do everything within my power to make sure nobody ever takes that away from me , but , if for some reason , i ca n't , that is where you step in . now , of course , chelsea 's always gon na be -- she 's always gon na be connor 's mother . but i need you to have the same legal rights that i would have as a father to protect him . so , jack , if you want to help me , if you really want to help me , you 'll say yes to being his godfather and his guardian . jack : oh , geez . i do n't know . i do n't know what to say . adam : i admire you , jack . there 's no one else i 'd rather have raise my son than you . jack : in that case ... i accept . adam : thank you . jack : hey , i want you to understand something . adam : [ clears throat ] jack : i really admire you -- the way you 've turned your life around . not that long ago , you were in a hospital bed , fighting for your life , having taken a bullet for a man who did nothing but hurt you and undermine you . adam : all that is over . whatever my father wants from me now , i want no part of it . jack : that 's because of you . you set your priorities . you decided to walk away from victor and focus on what is important -- raising connor , building a life for connor with chelsea . i ca n't tell you how happy i am that you two have found each other again . adam : i may have , uh -- i may have kind of asked her to marry me again . jack : `` kind of asked her `` -- how does that work ? adam : [ chuckles ] it was n't a -- it was n't an official proposal , per se , but , uh , it was more like a suggestion -- a trial balloon . jack : so , what did she not really say to your kind - of - sort - of suggestion ? adam : [ chuckles ] she said she 'd consider it . jack : sounds like you two have it all figured out . [ scene_break ] chelsea : i 'm not sure what i would do if adam asked me to marry him for real . chloe : how about you run for the hills ? sorry . force of habit . chelsea : well , i made it clear that i would n't be ready anytime soon . i mean , there 's so many factors to consider . chloe : like what ? chelsea : jabot , for one thing . i mean , i would have to make sure i could strike a good balance between my work life and my married life , and , of course , then there 's connor . chloe : and what about connor ? chelsea : marrying adam would have to be in connor 's best interest . i mean , there 's something to be said about having legal ties , but then things can get really ugly if i were to want to take connor and get out . chloe : but why would you want to get out ? you just said that adam is a changed man . chelsea : he is . he really is . i 'm just -- i 'm just being overly cautious , i guess .

lucas : i 'd like to , yeah . chloe : come on . i mean , i know that you 're insecure , but you have no reason to be . lucas : why , because i have such a great past with the women i choose ? chloe : stop it . your history with women , that had nothing to do with you . lucas : well , i picked them , did n't i ?

you know what i think ? kate : i do n't care what you think . i do n't care what you think . all i know is that you and that woman betrayed my son , and do you really think i 'm just gon na sit by and let that happen ? daniel : kate , kate , kate , this anger , this rage that consumes you , it 's about more than your concern for lucas , 'cause this -- this is about you . kate : oh , really ? daniel : really . kate : now , how do you see that ? daniel : well , what i see is that you 're jealous of your son 's wife , and this jealousy is just eating you alive . bo : so , the last person you saw brady with was melanie . hope : she 's the same girl who betrayed philip with the dimeras . henderson : but miss layton and philip had mended fences . they 're friends again , it would seem . bo : i see . hope : you 're free to go . thank you for your help , henderson . henderson : take care , commissioner , detective . please bring philip home safely . bo : we 'll do our best . hope : at least we know where brady was last seen . bo : yeah , that 's a start . hope : let 's go . you 're driving , right ?

[ both laugh ] brady : not bad , huh ? oh , god , no . melanie : what ? brady : no , do n't even do this to me . no , do n't . it 's dead . battery 's died . um , damn it . get your -- get your phone . do you have your phone ? melanie : yeah . um ... brady : what ? what is it ? oh , it 's dead . melanie : oh , my god . brady : it 's all right . it 's okay . uh , we 'll just have to go to plan `` b. `` melanie : i 'm a bad - luck magnet . brady : no , plan `` b. `` plan `` b. `` melanie : what 's plan `` b , `` brady ? brady : i do n't know what plan `` b `` is , melanie , damn it . you know what ? maybe the police could trace the signal . i mean , we got through for a second , right ? [ sighs ] so , you know , there 's a chance . melanie : why are you bothering with those ? i mean , do n't get me wrong . they 're beautiful , but i do n't think isabella needs them anymore , whoever she is . brady : she 's my mother . owen : time to go . stephanie : but i thought you said we had to stay put . you said you were worried that melanie was looking for us . owen : your friends are n't a problem for us anymore . stephanie : um ... owen , you think we can stop somewhere and get something to eat ? i - i 'm starting to feel pretty weak . owen : we 'll get some food on the way out of town . stephanie : uh , wait . you do n't want to tell your -- your dad bye first ? owen : oh , you do n't want to go , do you ? stephanie : no , that 's not what i 'm saying . owen : well , whatever it is , forget it , stephanie . it 's now or never . you know , i 've done some things in the last couple of days i never thought i could -- to take care of you , to protect you -- but if the answer 's gon na be never , then maybe i need to come up with something to do you more permanent to take care of you . you understand ? kate : yeah , you know , you 're right . i was attracted to you . i was . you definitely satisfied a need . but the more i got to know you , the more i found you ... i do n't know , what 's the word for it ? ah ! disgusting . disgusting . and i have to tell you , of all the men i 've been with , you are definitely the most repulsive . and , daniel , that is really saying a lot . so ... jealous ? i do n't think so . daniel : then i 'm wrong . kate : yes , but you so often are , are n't you ? daniel : yeah . kate : hey , daniel . i know the cancer may come back , and despite the fact that you 're advising me not to interfere in my children 's life , you see , i want to ensure their happiness after i 'm gone . now , is there any way that you can possibly understand something like that ? daniel : no . you want your sons to be fine without you -- you let them live their lives now . let them learn that . chloe : all i 'm saying is that you ca n't trust the memories that you have from that night . you said it yourself . you blacked out . lucas : yeah , i did , and you 're not answering my question . chloe : because there is no answer . i 'm not hiding anything . what ? lucas : you know what ? if you ca n't be honest with me , then ... chloe : what ? go ahead . finish the sentence . lucas : ... maybe we should n't be married right now . chloe : my god , lucas . why are you saying this ? lucas : because , chloe , i do n't want your pity . chloe : my pity ? lucas : yeah , your pity . if you feel that way , maybe you should leave . just leave now . chloe : i do n't understand why you 're being like this . lucas : because i know . i know you . i know how you are . you 're afraid of hurting me , right ? you 're afraid i 'm gon na start drinking again and try to kill myself . is that it ? chloe : lucas , stop it , please . lucas : just answer me . tell me . i mean , if you have something to tell me , tell me now . go ahead , chloe . tell me . i can take it . chloe : okay . i will . melanie : i did n't know you lost your mother . brady : happened a long time ago . i was a baby . i -- i never knew her . my dad used to -- he used to bring me here . we used to put flowers on her grave . we 'd talk to her . he 'd tell me stories about ... how i was born on their wedding day . and he would talk about their last trip to italy together . that was , uh -- that was where she died . melanie : so you do n't visit her anymore ? brady : no , i -- no , i have n't been here in a long time , actually . it 's kind of ironic . that it took this to get me back here . melanie : do n't -- do n't do that to yourself . just because you have n't visited her does n't mean she 's not still in your heart , does n't mean you do n't still think about her . brady : i always felt that she was looking after me and watching over me , protecting me . melanie : i wish i knew what that felt like . um , look , i know i have n't been the most optimistic person here , but , um ... maybe your mom will find a way to watch over us now and help us . brady : yeah , maybe she will . stephanie : owen , i do want to go away with you , i swear . owen : why do n't i believe you anymore , hmm ? stephanie : owen , please . owen : come on , steph . i thought we were gon na go away together . i thought we had a plan . i thought we were gon na leave now together . philip : [ grunting ] [ banging ] stephanie : you 're right , you sick bastard , i 'm not going anywhere with you . kate : [ sighs ] i do n't know . i really do n't know . maybe ... maybe i do need to find another way to look after my children ... to ensure their happiness after i 'm gone . daniel : so you 're going to leave this alone . kate : well , i promised i would . i will . daniel : it 's the right decision . good night . kate : daniel , daniel , daniel . [ chuckles ] you promised me that the two of you would stay away from each other , and you broke your promise . well , now i 'm going to have to break mine . chloe : okay , um ... what maggie was gon na tell you what she knew was ... that i was planning on leaving town without saying goodbye to you or allie . lucas : you were what ? you were gon na leave town ? i do n't understand . why the hell would you do that ? chloe : because i 'm screwed up , okay ? you want to talk about bad history with the opposite sex ? i 'm the worst , all right ? and you deserve better than me . lucas : do n't say that . do n't be like that . chloe : it 's true . that 's the reason that i broke up with you . i told you that , and i meant it . lucas : wait a minute . i love you . i want to be with you . you 're the only person i want to be with . you make me so happy . you -- i have never been happier with anybody . you 're the only person i want . i thought you knew that . bo : okay , that 's good . send two units over and do a sweep . right , keep me posted . the warrant came through to search the dimera mansion . hope : wait a second . what 's this ? melanie 's hospital badge . not something you lose on purpose . bo : nope . hope : maybe there was a struggle and melanie was hoping that someone would find this . bo : meaning she could be around here someplace . hope : yeah , hopefully brady as well . bo : yeah . melanie : ah ! i did n't know i had this in here . you can have half . brady : no . no thanks . you have it . melanie : always the gentleman . brady : not always . melanie : hey . i know she died young , but it sounds to me like she had a wonderful life . she found true love , and she left behind a son i know she 'd be proud of . brady : i do n't know about that . melanie : i do . if i could die in isabella 's shoes , i would be a pretty happy woman . brady : you 're gon na have your chance , melanie -- at love , at everything . i can promise you that . stephanie : no . owen : do n't do that . do not move . what the hell ? do n't move ! philip : hey ! owen : do not move ! mia : i may have to go away . will : how long will you be gone ? mia : maybe for good . stephanie : philip , do n't kill him ! nicole : you just ca n't walk away , especially when it involves sami . sami : i finally have everything i ever wanted . i 'm so happy . | melanie and brady work on getting a signal on one of their phones , but brady 's ingenious device made of melanie 's bra 's under - wire fails when both their phones die . they later have a heart - to - heart about isabella , brady 's mother . phillip tries to send melanie and brady a text message to come rescue him and stephanie . owen and his father prepare to embalm phillip , but stephanie 's gasps send owen 's father scurrying upstairs to see if a new client has come in . owen gets stephanie out of the drawer , saying it 's time to leave . she manages to distract him long enough to crack open phillip 's drawer . later she snatches owen 's gun . he gets it back just as phillip flies out of the drawer . owen holds his gun on the both of them . hope and bo learn from henderson that brady was last seen near the cemetery with melanie . they head over there and find melanie 's hospital badge on the ground . kate confronts daniel and chloe , and threatens to tell lucas of their affair . daniel pulls her aside after she nearly tells , and reminds her that the way to make sure her kids are happy is to let them live their own lives -- without her interference . kate pretends to agree , but secretly decides to tell lucas everything . when lucas demands answers from chloe , she tells him that the night he got drunk , maggie was trying to tell him that chloe was planning to leave town without saying goodbye . she adds that she loves lucas , but does n't think she deserves him . lucas buys her story , and tries to assure her of his love . | <s>[INST] stephanie : [ sobbing ] philip : stephanie , is that you ? stephanie : [ whimpering ] philip : stephanie , it 's me . where are you ? melanie : oh , my god , brady . we 're gon na die in here . brady : melanie , melanie , god , if you say that one more time -- melanie : you 'll what ? you 'll kill me ? good . i 'd rather go fast than rot here in a room of skeletons with little suits on . brady : hey , hey , hey , my god , if we 're gon na get out of here , i need you to stay strong , okay ? no more doom and gloom . melanie : no more doom and gloom . okay , brady , um , we 're in a mausoleum . brady : i know , and we got to keep looking for a way out . melanie : they 're never gon na find us here . they 're never gon na find stephanie or philip . they 're gon na die . we 're gon na die . all four of us -- dead -- and for what ? a little money ? a blood feud ? i should have stayed in france because , compared to salem , my life there was like club med . brady : melanie ! melanie : what ? ! brady : shut up . melanie : we should have just called the cops when we found out stephanie was in the morgue . brady , what have we done ?

kate : [ chuckles ] wow . daniel : kate , it 's not what you 're thinking . kate : you know what i 'm thinking ? it 's not what it looks like ? you know , i have to say i - i am a little disappointed . i 'm a little disappointed that you could n't come up with something better , like , hey , i do n't know , `` damn , we did n't think you 'd come in here and catch us groping each other like a couple of horny teenagers . `` chloe : kate , listen , you have every right to be suspicious of us , but you have to believe us . daniel and i are just friends now . that 's it , okay ? kate : [ laughs ] you know , i have to tell you , as humorless as you are , you really make me laugh sometimes . stephanie : philip , is that really you ? i 'm not dreaming , am i ? philip : it 's no dream . it 's me , steph , and i 'm gon na get you out of here . i 'm gon na take you home . stephanie : philip , where are you exactly ? philip : i smuggled myself into the morgue to get information . stephanie : well , can you get me out , please ? philip : i wish i could , but ... stephanie : but you 're what ? philip : i 'm stuck in a morgue drawer . stephanie : he put you in one , too ? philip : is that where you are ? stephanie : yes . philip : stephanie , has he hurt you ? stephanie : no . no , no , no , no . no , it 's nothing like that . philip : what did he tell you ? stephanie : he just said that he was following orders from the dimeras , but then suddenly he was n't . philip : what does that mean ? stephanie : well , he got this idea in his head that i 'm safer with him , so he said that he 's gon na take me away , far away . philip : son of a bitch . he 's been keeping you here all this time ? stephanie : yes , it 's horrible . i can barely breathe . philip : stephanie , i will find a way out of this . i promise , i 'm going to undo this . kate : [ chuckles ] chloe : daniel was just consoling me . that 's all , okay ? victor was being horrible to me , as usually , and it really upset me . kate : oh , poor , poor sensitive chloe . chloe : that 's all that happened , i swear . kate : you know , maybe i 'm being too cynical . maybe i am . i mean , just because you 're a lying slut does n't mean you do n't have a moment of truth every once in a while , right ? daniel : kate , that is enough . my god , why would you speak to her that way ? kate : why ? really ? [ laughs ] i do n't know . maybe because she took my son 's love and devotion and she made a mockery of it . you think ? chloe : no , i have not done that , all right ? i have been good to lucas , loving to him and his daughter , okay ? i 've been a very faithful wife since the day we were married . kate : just not the day before or the day before that . daniel : okay , stop . kate : or the day before that . hey , lucas , come out here , will you ? ! chloe : kate , please . kate : what ? i think it 's time your husband knows the truth , do n't you ? chloe : the truth is that i love him from the bottom of my heart , and if i were going to be unfaithful , why would i do it here in this hideous mansion with people all around ? kate : you know , i do n't know . i think probably because you 're out of control . you 're incredibly self - absorbed . you think ? lucas ! i do n't think he heard me . daniel : kate , you really need to think this through . kate : what 's there to think about ? you promised me that the two of you would stay away from each other . chloe : we have . kate : you broke the promise , unless of course you think that platonic little grope does n't count . daniel : you just need to calm down and listen to what she -- kate : oh , no . i am calm . i mean , i am so calm i am borderline serene because , you see , i knew about the two of you for a long time , so i 'm kind of used to it . but lucas -- oh , lucas is another story . lucas , come out here , will you ? ! lucas ! bo : victor told me that philip left town . hope : and now it appears that brady has dropped off the face of the earth as well . bo : been trying to reach him . do you have any idea where he is ? lucas : no , i have n't seen him . not since victor kicked him out of the house last night . bo : they had a fight ? lucas : yeah , they did . nothing unusual there . are you worried about brady , too ? hope : why would n't we be ? until this feud ends , we 're all in danger . lucas : guess that 's true . bo : so we were hoping you 'd help us out , you know , let us have a look around . lucas : yeah , go ahead . anything for philip . bo : thanks , man . hope : thank you , lucas . henderson : commissioner brady , detective brady , i assume you have a search warrant . owen : you know , i really wish you had n't canceled your vacation , not on my account . dad ! are you in some sort of trouble , son ? owen : no , dad , i told you . i only have to hide out here a little bit longer , so please go . just take a break . go relax . i ca n't . owen : why ? the body . the one that just came in from university hospital . i 've got to take care of it . philip : hey , it wo n't be much longer now , steph . you hear me ? steph ? steph . steph , you there ? philip : stephanie johnson ... will you do me the honor of being my wife ? stephanie : yes . yes . philip : give me your hand . stephanie : i hear you . philip : i ca n't hear owen . he must be gone . stephanie : i think so . philip : i 'm going to text brady and melanie and let them know to get us the hell out of here , okay ? melanie : i 've screwed up everything . brady : melanie , stop it . melanie : no , you know it 's true , if i had n't been so greedy and so selfish . brady : all right , then let 's get the heck out of here somehow , okay ? and you can start to atone for everything you 've ever done . melanie : that 's the thing . i 'm not gon na get the chance to do that . brady : look at me . look at me . stop . we are gon na find a way out of here , and you 're gon na get a chance to do everything . melanie : that 's very sweet . it 's also a lie because you and i both know that if we die today , i 'm going to hell . chloe : kate , please do n't say anything to lucas . you ca n't . kate : all this begging and crying -- it 's so unbecoming . daniel : kate , you 're upset about philip . you 're not really thinking clearly . kate : oh , no . on the contrary , i think i 'm thinking very clearly -- more clearly than i have in the past few weeks . daniel : you kept this to yourself all this time to protect lucas . you want to tell him now , out of anger , when nothing , nothing happened . kate : your definition of `` nothing `` is considerably different than mine . bo : this is my father 's house , henderson . my wife and i are here visiting family . henderson : i have strict orders from mr. kiriakis , commissioner , not to allow you entry . bo : in that case , um ... we 'll go . but we 're taking you with us . henderson : i beg your pardon . bo : we need to bring you in for questioning . it wo n't take that long . hope : and victor never needs to know . henderson : i 'm sorry , officer brady . hope : it 's for philip , henderson . we know you care about him . bo : and the thing is ... we do n't need a warrant to bring you in for questioning . it 's our prerogative in a case like this . henderson : very well , then . bo : catch you later , lucas . lucas : see ya .

[ door closes ] bo : hey ya , henderson . you want some cheerios ? we have a fresh box here . henderson : i 'm not hungry at the moment . thanks all the same . hope : please have a seat . make yourself comfortable . bo : please , relax . we know victor probably told you not to talk to us about philip , and that 's just fine . hope : and we understand your loyalty to victor . bo : so we 'll ask you a simple question . when was the last time you saw brady black ? brady : it 's all right . just some flowers , melanie . melanie : i thought it was a rat . sorry . just tell me it -- tell me it 's too spooky for rats . tell me there are no rats . brady : there are no rats . melanie : just lots of dead bodies . brady : wait a minute . wait a minute . melanie : what ? brady : maybe ... melanie : `` maybe `` what ? brady : you know what ? melanie : there 's no reception in here , brady . we already -- brady : yeah , yeah , but there may be a way to let the outside world know that we are here . are you , um -- are you wearing a ... melanie : a bra ? yes . brady : i need more wire . melanie : [ laughs ] all right , turn around . stephanie : what 's taking them so long ? philip : maybe they did n't get my text yet . shh ! did you hear that ? stephanie : what ? philip : somebody 's coming . maybe it 's mel and brady . [ laughs ] the only problem was paperwork was iffy off the top . i mean , at first i could n't tell if the deceased was supposed to be cremated or embalmed , but i think i finally figured out that little riddle . come on , son . give the old man a hand . stephanie : [ gasps ] owen , why am i hearing noises ? is someone else here ? chloe : nobody 's keeping anything from you , lucas . we 're all just really edgy right now . lucas : edgy . right . daniel : you look pale , kate . let 's get you some air . kate : no , i 'm fine , really . daniel : well , you know what ? it 's doctor 's orders . kate : all righty , then . daniel : we 'll be back soon .. kate : i 'm not going anywhere with you . daniel : i saved your life . i saved philip 's life . you said you owe me . kate : [ chuckles ] really ? you 're gon na play that card ? daniel : yeah , i 'm gon na play that card . come on , you at least owe me the courtesy of hearing me out . chloe : you need to stop being so paranoid . lucas : you know what ? i 'm gon na lose it if one more person tells me to stop being paranoid . chloe : come on , let 's just go get something to eat . lucas : you know what ? you 're doing it again . chloe : doing what ? lucas : you 're changing the subject , just like you did at java when i saw you and maggie there and i told you guys i was starting to remember what happened the night i was drinking . chloe : i - i do n't remember trying to change the subject . lucas : well , whatever . you were acting nervous and weird . that i know , and you know what ? i thought you 'd be happy that i started to get my memory back of what happened that night , but , no , you 're not . it 's almost like you do n't want me to remember . you and maggie are acting the same way . chloe : that 's not true . lucas : yes , it is true . she 's keeping something from me , chloe , and so are you . bo : so , before victor disowned brady , he came by the mansion looking for philip . henderson : that 's right , but he did n't find him . and if i may , commissioner ... bo : yeah , go ahead . henderson : i do n't think you need to worry about brady . hope : why is that ? henderson : on my way to work this morning , i saw mr. black . he was walking toward the river by the cemetery . hope : was he with anyone ? henderson : actually , yes . melanie layton . melanie : you ruined my bra . brady : [ chuckles ] melanie : so , what is that ? brady : it 's going to be a signal booster . melanie : yeah . no , i knew that . brady : all right . come on , come on . wait a minute . wait a minute . melanie : did it work ? is it working ? did -- brady : oh , my -- oh , my god . i got a signal . i got a signal . melanie : yay ! whoo ! owen : what do you mean is someone here ? of course there 's no one here , dad . you know what it is ? someone probably just came in the funeral parlor . i 'm gon na take a look . owen : it was you , was n't it ? look , i told you to just be quiet . i promise you i 'm not gon na keep you in there that much longer . just ... be quiet , okay ? i 'll get you out soon . stephanie : philip , what are we gon na do ? they 're gon na try to embalm you . philip : if i can just figure out a way out of this drawer . i 'm sure i can take owen in a fight . stephanie : no , owen has a gun . philip : shh ! he 's coming back . owen : all right , stephanie [ sighs ] time to go . chloe : okay , i know what this is . lucas : what is it ? chloe : this is about when you had that dream about me . it must still be bothering you . come on , honey , it was just a dream . i love you with all my heart . you have to believe that . i mean , you do , do n't you ? lucas : i 'd like to , yeah . chloe : come on . i mean , i know that you 're insecure , but you have no reason to be . lucas : why , because i have such a great past with the women i choose ? chloe : stop it . your history with women , that had nothing to do with you . lucas : well , i picked them , did n't i ? chloe : yeah , but this time , it 's gon na be different , all right ? because i 'm not gon na do what they did because i am happy with you -- more than you can imagine . i love you , and we are perfect and relaxed and easy . lucas : and boring and predictable . chloe : no , we 're not . lucas : well , if everything was so perfect , why did you break off the engagement ? i mean , if there 's something i should know , if there 's something that i should hear , do n't you think you should tell me ? i mean , do n't you think you should be the one to tell me right now ? daniel : you promised to let this go . kate : i 'm reconsidering . daniel : well , lucas is a grown - up . he does n't need you interfering . kate : i do n't need you telling me what i should and should n't do with my children . daniel : you know what , kate ? you know what i think ? kate : i do n't care what you think . i do n't care what you think . all i know is that you and that woman betrayed my son , and do you really think i 'm just gon na sit by and let that happen ? daniel : kate , kate , kate , this anger , this rage that consumes you , it 's about more than your concern for lucas , 'cause this -- this is about you . kate : oh , really ? daniel : really . kate : now , how do you see that ?

[ scene_break ] jack : jeez -- erica : no , you have to calm down . jack : calm down ? calm down ? erica , i walked in there -- reggie and danielle half - naked in his bed doing -- about -- erica : what we were about to do ? jack : we 're grownups , ok ? they 're children , they 're children . reggie and danielle are kids . erica : yeah , but you will get a lot better reaction from them if you treat them as if they were grownups . trust me . follow my lead . reggie : hey . erica : uh -- reggie ? your -- your dad and i were just wondering what we should do this year for thanksgiving dinner . what do you think ? you think we should go to the valley inn the way we did last year ? reggie : well , the way i remember it , things got pretty ugly between the stuffing and the pie , but -- erica : well , then maybe we should have a more intimate dinner at my house . i think that would be nice , do n't you , jack ? jack : i 'm fine either way . erica : well , i think it 's probably just a matter of where we feel most comfortable . i mean , there are so many of us , and we seem to keep expanding every year . reggie : wait , wait a minute . is n't there something that you got to say to me ? jack : no , reggie , i think this time i 'm going to let you do the talking . [ scene_break ] jamie : i 'll put it all on the line , babe . i 'll make sure you and baby james are safe and you never have to be afraid of anything . babe : you know , it 's -- it 's funny what i used to think was important . i mean , you grow up with having absolutely nothing , and everything is going wrong . you always think that everything can be fixed by things . you know , like if -- if my clothes were nicer , if my house was fancier . jamie : we always want what we ca n't have . babe : but the thing is , is i got every single thing that i thought that i needed to make me happy . and i was n't . and here i am . i 'm -- i 'm back to my roots . i 'm driving across country in a used car . i 'm staying at roach motels and eating at truck stops . it 's just like how it used to be for me and mama -- always looking over our shoulders making sure some bill collector was n't on our tail , or some dude that she kicked to the curb . jamie : this time it 's a lot bigger than bill collectors . babe : but i 'm happier than should be legal . i 'm happy . and bianca and miranda -- they 're happy . all that leaves is mama . it just does n't feel right , me being this happy , knowing that mama might not be . would n't it be so awesome if right now she 's going to bed and she 's looking across her pillow at her brand- new husband ? your daddy ? what , you think mama and tad decided to wait ? jamie : i think your mom and my dad will get married when hell freezes over . [ scene_break ] tad : well , this should be worth the price of admission . the label switcher has had a change of heart . krystal : i ran into bianca at the boathouse . david : and what did you say to her ? krystal : not what she deserved to hear , and it 's killing me . that girl 's got the biggest heart in the world , and it just breaks mine that she still does n't know about her baby . tad : now your heart is breaking ? david : krystal , it 's not the right time . tad : according to you . krystal : then when ? david : when someone else is convicted of paul cramer 's murder , that 's when . tad : ok , they just -- they just arrested dorian lord . david : so what ? when michael cambias was killed , they arrested me . am i in prison ? tad : it 's a minor oversight . i 'd love to send you to prison anytime . david : when this murder case is as dead as paul cramer is , that 's when we tell bianca . tad : well , supposing we do stick to your little game plan here , doc . how do you intend to explain this to bianca ? david : i do n't have to . i 'm going to make a disturbing discovery . a certain lab tech has screwed up quite a few tests for me in the past . well , it turns out he 's the same lab tech that handled the dna test that you and your father ran on bess . so i figured , better run another test . guess what -- turns out he made a horrible mistake . tad : and , voilà , a man 's reputation is destroyed and bianca never finds out that you 're actually the person that kept her baby from her all this time . you know , if you were n't on a one - way trip to hell , this would definitely clinch it . david : bianca gets miranda back . that 's what 's important , is n't it ? krystal : what about babe 's letters ? j.r. has already gotten his , and adam swears that he 'll hunt babe down like a dog if he finds out that what she said in that letter is true . david : do n't worry about adam . i can handle him . krystal : you did n't see adam . there 's not a box big enough to crate him off in if he finds out that we 've been deceiving him about that grandbaby . i mean , if the fbi and the police do n't catch jamie and babe , the chandlers will . and even if they do n't figure out that ace is j.r. 's , they 're going to be raring to make them pay . tad : no , because they wo n't have the chance . he 's got a plan he has n't let you in on yet . krystal : you got a plan ? tad : oh , yeah , he 's got it all worked out . it involves the possibility we never see our children again ever . krystal : over my dead body ! [ scene_break ] bianca : well , you must have pulled an all - nighter , because there 's just no way you 'd be up this early . maggie : it 's all jonathan 's fault , the loyal fusion employee that he is . he had to get up early for work . he 's all over this holiday enchantment gift set . bianca : well , he 'll be done soon . that 's -- that 's coming out on the 29th . maggie : if you 're having a private moment , you know i can go . bianca : no , stay . stay . actually , i was thinking about us . maggie : you were ? what were you thinking about ? bianca : well , i was thinking about that time you made me jump into the freezing cold water . maggie : i had to do it . you were chicken . i have to be honest with you . i know that you and jonathan have had your problems -- ethan and the shirt . and i know that jonathan has n't been very nice to you . bianca : maggie , whatever problems i 've had with jonathan , they have nothing to do with you . maggie : that 's not true . i had something to do with it . bianca : why do you say that ? maggie : because i told him that i was in love with you . believe me , i was very clear with jonathan . he knows that my feelings are one - sided . bianca : but he still was n't thrilled that -- that you felt that way about me . maggie : it was n't you being another woman . actually , he was really great about that . i think it 's more about him wanting to come first with me . and , of course , he does . i never would have asked him to move into my apartment if i did n't feel that he did . bianca : and what about you ? do you think that you come first for him ? maggie : yes . i mean , that 's what i love most about -- bianca : hey , maggie , i want you to be happy . maggie : i know . i want you to be happy , too . bianca : well , i 'm working on it . maggie : well , then why are you still here ? bianca : where else would i be ? maggie : poland , with lena . bianca : yeah . i know . she asked me the same question the other day . we had a -- a long - distance fight over the phone . maggie : well , it made sense before . you did n't go see her because you wanted to stay here for bess and babe . but what is your excuse this time ? bianca : bess and babe . [ scene_break ] jamie : my dad may be cool with the little white lies , but the big stuff -- i mean , krystal lied to his face the whole time . and , plus , my dad lost a baby , so your mother letting bianca think she lost miranda -- he 's not going to be cool with any of that . babe : but tad does love her an awful lot , right ? i mean , maybe enough to forgive her ? jamie : he loves her . but bianca means a lot to him , and so does the truth . and , i mean , that 's why he ran the dna test to begin with . so when he finds out that krystal switched the results , he 's going to walk away . babe : ok . ok , so say -- say that he does find out . i get that he 's going to be mad and all , but , jamie , you respect the truth , too , right ? and you gave me a chance to explain . you forgave me . why ca n't mom have that , too ? she could -- she could just explain to him . she could tell him that everything that she did , she did it because she loved me . i mean , ca n't tad give mama the exact same break ? jamie : krystal tried to help you , and it turned out to be the worst thing she could have done . i mean , without her help , the truth would have come out sooner and we all would have gone on with our lives . if my dad does n't forgive krystal , she only has herself to blame . [ scene_break ] tad : so is it possible you actually have a conscience , or are you doing this out of selfishness , like everything else ? krystal : now , you know , that 's enough . we all know your opinion on me , tad . i 'm the lowest of the low , and you 're through with me . but you know what ? the last time i checked , nobody 's granted you sainthood either . david : amen to that . tad : oh , wait a minute . this is n't about staking the moral high ground , it 's about our children . and apparently you two think the only way to love your daughter is to make things right for her , no matter what . just damn the consequences . you lie , you cheat , you steal , you destroy people 's lives , and apparently you sleep like a baby through all of it . well , guess what -- aside from the example you set , now there 's a price to pay . nothing is ever going to be ok with jamie and babe again , not at this rate . because kidnapping , no matter whose child it is , is wrong . and personally , i do n't give a damn what your plans are , hayward . at this point , i 'm going to find a way to make things right . [ scene_break ] ryan : now , what part of `` i love you `` do n't you understand ? your health and your happiness are the only things that matter to me now . greenlee : this is so beyond that . ryan : i do n't care , you understand ? if you have a problem , i have a problem . just the same way you stood by me in the hospital . greenlee : that was different . a bullet was your problem . i do n't want to have to wake up dependent on meds every day to feel normal . ryan : would you look at me , please ? if you had a broken ankle , i would make you a splint . if you had low blood sugar , i 'd pump you full of oj . i mean , you take calcium for your bones , you take vitamin e for your skin . if you -- you have to take one more pill to make the rest of you healthy , then just do n't fight it . greenlee : what if it does n't fix me ? ryan : what if it does ? ok , look , we can keep this really simple , ok ? you just go in there and you talk to dr. ashbourne . you tell him the truth . do it -- do it for yourself . do it -- do it for us . [ scene_break ] reggie : all right , this is not even close to what you guys are thinking . erica : oh , i would n't underestimate your father 's imagination if i were you . reggie : ok , all right , this is what happened . we were just hanging out , and then dani got sleepy . danielle : i crashed on the couch . reggie : right . and then i decided , you know , `` do n't make a girl leave in the middle of the night . you know , j would n't approve of that . `` yeah . so then i decided -- no , we decided that she should sleep in on my bed . i -- i did n't want to mess up your sheets or nothing . and then i was going in there to check on her , just to make sure she was sleeping and everything , right when you guys got home . danielle : i barely had a chance to close my eyes . reggie : barely . jack : i see . and i assume you had your father 's permission to crash here . reggie : i mean , j , let 's be serious , ok ? you were n't even supposed to be home till tomorrow . which is besides the point because this is a one - time thing . and dani 's never even been here past 8 : 00 while you were gone . i mean , i -- i swear . lily : do n't swear , reggie . it would be a lie . jack : oh , is that so ? lily : i have pictures . danielle : i 'm going to be grounded till i 'm 20 . jack : sit . lily : see ? this is reggie and dani all kissing in the kitchen . jack : uh - huh . lily : that was on tuesday . and this is reggie and danielle kissing on the couch . that was last night . and here is reggie and danielle kissing in the hallway , a lot . reggie : i 'm a dead man . jack : yeah . my , my , my , you 've -- you 've been busy . oh , very busy . would n't that be nice in a wallet size ? erica : lily , you have a really good eye for composition . reggie : i mean , who knew my moves were being caught on film ? thanks , lily . lily : not every move . just the ones i do n't understand . like this one . danielle : that 's so not my good side . i suppose this is where you pick up the phone and call my dad . jack : no , you know what ? actually , i think i 'm going to let you do that -- with reggie 's help , if he 's up to it . reggie : oh , the chief already hates my guts . i -- i ca n't . lily : i can show him the pictures if it helps . reggie : ok , let me have it . `` sex is bad . just say no . `` jack : reggie , believe it or not , at one time , i was your age . and i know what it 's like to want to do what you were about to do when i walked in this room . and i 'll tell you something else you might not know . it 's ok . what 's not ok is you not being responsible . reggie : i am responsible . i have protection . jack : well -- reggie : you want to see it ? jack : no , no , i do n't want to see , but you better have . look , responsibility is not just about having condoms . you are not responsible when you lie to me , when you lie to derek . you are not responsible when you are macking on dani in your bedroom while your sister 's asleep in hers next door -- or not asleep , as it turns out . i trusted you . i left you in charge . reggie : we cleaned after ourselves , all right ? i was responsible . we cooked dinner . nothing burned down . jack : i got burned because i trusted you . now , is any of this sinking in ? lily : see , dani does n't dress like the hot girls , but she still looks ready for sex . danielle : i am not ! that 's so unfair ! i 'm just going to go now , ok ? thanks for making me the entertainment portion of the program . erica : danielle , i 'd really like it if you would stay . lily , do you mind if i have a word with dani , alone ? lily : sure . erica : what you just said about not being ready for sex -- did you mean that ? danielle : yeah . i mean , no . i -- what difference does it make ? erica : oh , it makes a difference . i was a teenage girl like you . i know what it 's like . danielle : no , i do n't think you do . erica : you 're a virgin , right ? danielle : get out . do i look like i have a big l on my forehead or something ? erica : and reggie does n't know that you 're a virgin , and you 're worried that it 's going to change his feelings about you . you do know that he 's crazy about you , do n't you ? danielle : yeah , i think he really is . erica : it 's so obvious . you trust him ? danielle : yeah . that 's why we were about to -- erica : do something that you were n't really sure that you wanted to do . danielle : i like him so much , i want to show him how much . erica : well , i think that you -- you need to tell him that it would be your first time . danielle : oh , god , no . erica : are you so afraid that he would change his feelings about you if he would know the truth ? danielle : you do n't know what it 's like to be the only girl who does n't -- erica : oh , believe me , you are so far from being the only girl . and reggie is n't going to think anything less of you . he 's not going to think you 're a loser if you tell him that -- that you think so much of yourself that you are not willing to throw away something so special when you 're just not really ready . danielle : that 's not the way people see it . erica : do n't tell me that you care what other people think . i mean , look at you . you are so beautiful , inside and out . you stood up for lily to those -- those awful hot girls . and you stand up for yourself . you be proud that you 're not like them . you make the call about what you do with your body . nobody else . [ scene_break ] reggie : look , dad , it 's not just the physical thing . all right ? i 'm really starting to fall for this girl . and it 's like i feel as though i 'm ready to take this thing to the next level with her . jack : ok . i get that . i do . and i respect your feelings . but here 's the deal , son . if you think you have to do this by sneaking around behind your father 's back , then you are in no way , shape , or form ready to take it to the next level . come here . [ scene_break ] erica : danielle , i know that you and reggie really care about each other . but making love -- i mean , especially the first time -- should n't be to prove something to a man . it should be because it 's something you want , deep down in your heart , without question , without reservation . and if that 's not the way you feel about it , well , then it does n't matter how ready you want to be . you just are n't . it 's that simple . [ scene_break ] jamie : we need to find a place to rest . babe : you know what ? even if you think what mama did was wrong , she never , ever once asked me to keep the lie going . that was my doing . so there 's no way tad can blame her for that . jamie : i know my dad . and after what krystal did , it 's not going to be easy for him to forgive . or forget . [ scene_break ] tad : eventually , they 're going to have to face the consequences . krystal : maybe they will , or maybe it 'll never catch up to them . tad : that 's not the way the world works , krystal . sooner or later , you got to pay the price . david : yeah , well , whatever happens , there 's no way i 'm going to let babe lose her son to j.r . krystal : david 's right . we can not let that happen . tad : why ? ace is j.r. 's baby , too . and i do n't care what he 's done in the past . he deserves to know he 's got a son and that son is alive . and who are you to deny him that ? david : wait a minute , why do you care about j.r. ? he 's not your son ! he 's adam 's and -- that 's what this is about , is n't it ? he 's dixie 's son ! tad : shut up . david : all this self - righteous garbage about doing the right thing -- you do n't believe that any more than i do . there 's only one reason you want that boy here . it 's because he 's dixie 's grandchild . and you 're willing to sacrifice your own son so that you can hold onto her .

[ scene_break ] jamie : my dad may be cool with the little white lies , but the big stuff -- i mean , krystal lied to his face the whole time . and , plus , my dad lost a baby , so your mother letting bianca think she lost miranda -- he 's not going to be cool with any of that . babe : but tad does love her an awful lot , right ? i mean , maybe enough to forgive her ? jamie : he loves her . but bianca means a lot to him , and so does the truth . and , i mean , that 's why he ran the dna test to begin with . so when he finds out that krystal switched the results , he 's going to walk away . babe : ok . ok , so say -- say that he does find out . i get that he 's going to be mad and all , but , jamie , you respect the truth , too , right ? and you gave me a chance to explain . you forgave me . why ca n't mom have that , too ? she could -- she could just explain to him . she could tell him that everything that she did , she did it because she loved me . i mean , ca n't tad give mama the exact same break ? jamie : krystal tried to help you , and it turned out to be the worst thing she could have done . i mean , without her help , the truth would have come out sooner and we all would have gone on with our lives . if my dad does n't forgive krystal , she only has herself to blame .

[ cell phone rings ] carly : oh , god . aj : what 's the matter ? carly : oh , god . it 's mercedes . hi , mercedes . i 'm so sorry . i 'm -- i 'm so sorry i 'm late . you know , um , something came up -- something that will never , ever come up around me again . elizabeth : i know it 's late , but i would really like to speak with aj if that 's okay . monica : you ca n't . max : what 's going on ? i thought you would have taken lulu home by now . dante : oh , apparently , she 's not going anywhere . lulu : yeah , and apparently , that means neither is he . dante : so , grab a chair , max . it 's about to get real cozy in here . milo : yeah , do n't even think about it , huh ? see , brothers are supposed to have each other 's backs . max : i do have your back , dummy . that 's why i called dante . milo : you could have called and warned me that you 'd actually gone through with ratting me out . if i 'd have known he was gon na storm over here , i might have been able to defend myself . dante : please , you 're lucky all you got was one punch . lulu : oh , okay , caveman . max : he cracked you one , huh ? i figured that 's what the peas were about . milo : edamame . more protein . max : why do you got to bring your mom into this ? why do you have to do any of this at all ? i told you there would be trouble , and look . milo : because of you and your big mouth . max : no , no , no , no , no . do n't blame me . dante is the boss 's son . it 's our ya- bay [ job ] to look out for his best interests . lulu : what about my best interests ? max : i 'm looking out for those , too . dante : actually , we 're all looking out for those -- well , most of us , anyway . milo : all i want is to help lulu , man . dante : milo , if that 's true , then you 'll understand why i need to be with her . lulu : you 're seriously staying ? dante : i seriously am . lulu : fine . have fun with your testosterone - fest , 'cause i 'm out of here . ellie : what i 'm about to tell you is gon na change everything . maxie : no , no , no ! no . ellie : maxie , give it back . maxie : no . let go of the phone . spinelli : el - ellie ? ellie , hello ? maxie : ellie , hang up . hang up . ellie : no . laura : you kissed elizabeth ? nikolas : [ chuckles ] do n't seem so surprised . laura : well , i am surprised , to be honest . i mean , i thought the two of you were over . what happened ? what changed ? nikolas : nothing changed . that 's the point . i feel the same about her as i did the day i left . laura : and how does she feel ? you know , 'cause i was under the impression that she was seeing aj quartermaine . did n't he take her to the nurses ' ball ? nikolas : now , how could you know that when you were halfway around the world , mother ? laura : well [ sighs ] she 's the mother of my grandchildren , and i guess i make it a point to stay abreast of what 's going on in her life . not to mention , it was in the papers . i mean , to me , she and aj looked pretty close . nikolas : they were . but things are different now . elizabeth : is aj not home ? 'cause i thought i saw his car in the front ? monica : oh , no . uh , no . he 's -- he 's home . he 's home . elizabeth : well , then , why ca n't i see him ? monica : i ca n't tell you how wonderful it feels to finally approve of a woman who is sharing your bed . oh , elizabeth is so far above the women you were seeing when you were drinking . aj : um , mom , listen . i - i - i should probably get -- monica : oh , of course . oh , of course . of course . please apologize to elizabeth . i 'm so sorry i interrupted . aj : it 's okay . elizabeth : monica ? monica : hmm ? elizabeth : is everything okay ? monica : oh . oh , yes . y - yes . yes , everything is fine . i - i -- well , i was just upstairs , and , uh -- and aj is asleep ... i think . carly : i 'm going straight home . i 'm gon na take two aspirin and hope whatever disease has taken over me tonight will be gone in the morning . aj : great . you 'll understand if i do n't walk you out , right ? carly : i do n't need you to walk me anywhere . aj : good . okay ! bye ! what ? what 's with the face ? carly : your mom thinks i 'm elizabeth . aj : uh , no offense , but there is no comparison . carly : what if she says something to her ? aj : what , to elizabeth ? carly : yeah . i mean , they both work at the same hospital . i 'm sure they run into each other from time to time . aj : what is she gon na say ? what ? `` oh , hey , have fun sleeping with my son the other night ? `` talk about awkward . carly : you better say nothing . aj : what are you talking about ? i 'm disgusted . i 'm not gon na say a word . carly : cone of silence . aj : cone of silence . i 'm not gon na say a thing . elizabeth : monica , it 's kind of important . it wo n't take long . monica : elizabeth , i just -- i just know that this is the right time . elizabeth : please . if he 's asleep , i promise i 'll leave . let me just run up and check . monica : even if he is awake , he , um -- well , he just seemed really worn - out tonight . elizabeth : oh , that 's all my fault . things we said earlier -- things that i regret -- and i just do n't want to leave it until the morning . like i said , it wo n't take long . monica : well , i - i - i do n't know , really . elizabeth : monica , i highly doubt he 's sound asleep . he 's probably upstairs tossing and turning . monica : well , that 's entirely possible . aj : hey , back for round two ? carly : of misery ? no , thank you . elizabeth is here , and she 's on her way up right now . nikolas : while you were off rescuing lulu , elizabeth and i got close again . laura : well , scotty told me that she practically lived next to your bedside . well , i - i 'm grateful to her for that . i am . nikolas : aj does n't , uh , share your sentiments , apparently . i mean , i 've -- i 've seen spencer react to bad news more maturely . laura : what happened ? nikolas : [ scoffs ] he threw a - a [ chuckles ] jealous rage , showed up at my hospital room beating his chest , warning me to stay away from his woman . laura : he did n't say that . nikolas : yeah . close enough . laura : was elizabeth there ? nikolas : no , but when i told her what happened , she was n't happy about it . she confronted aj and broke up with him . laura : i see . nikolas : [ chuckling ] yeah . paranoia is a powerful thing , apparently . he was so convinced that i was out to steal elizabeth from him , he ended up driving her away himself . laura : but was he ? paranoid ? 'cause you just kind of admitted that you wanted elizabeth . nikolas : i know , but i was n't at that point -- not yet . laura : but you are now . nikolas , i 'm sorry , honey . i wish i could back you up on this one , but i think this -- this is such a bad idea . ellie : oh , i will not ! maxie : do you really think you should be fighting with a pregnant person ? i already had one miscarriage . spinelli . it 's maxie . spinelli : maxie . uh ... what 's going on ? it sounded like the phone made its way through a wood chipper . maxie : it 's really windy outside . probably a poor connection . spinelli : okay , where -- where 's ellie ? maxie : she had to step out . spinelli : in the middle of our conversation ? ellie : [ sighs ] maxie : she told me to tell you she would talk to you later . spinelli : well , i mean , that 's curious , because she said she had news of the utmost importance to relay . maxie : well , i guess it could wait . spinelli : maxie ? maxie : yeah . spinelli : does this have something to do with dante and lulu 's baby ? dante : lulu , please , just give me a chance here , okay ? lulu : milo , thank you so much for letting me stay here . thank you for being so patient and understanding . that was exactly what i needed , and it meant the world to me . thank you so much . milo : lulu , wait up . dante : uh , no . no . you 're not going anywhere . milo : she 's upset . dante : yeah , and i 'll handle it . milo : dante , she does n't want to talk -- dante : you do n't know what she wants ! and she does n't know what she wants , either . keep a leash on your brother , please , max . i 'm going to find my wife . milo : maybe we should go look for lulu . max : and piss off dante even more ? you heard him , milo . he 's got this . milo : i know he thinks that , but lulu -- max : lulu is his wife . milo : well , she 's not feeling it right now . what if she runs away -- for real , this time ? or falls in with bad company ? she could end up on pier 52 -- that place is like a death trap . max : what if you stop worrying , all right ? just relax . dante will find her . dante : coleman , hey . have you seen lulu ? coleman : yeah . by the jukebox . dante : thanks . coleman : you know me , man . no blonde goes unnoticed , brother . dante : you , uh , need a couple quarters ? lulu : what did you do , plant a gps on me ? dante : [ chuckles ] no . i 'm a detective . it 's my job to find things . lulu : oh , awesome . so , now i 'm a thing . dante : that 's not what i meant , and you know it . lulu : do you mind ? i 'm trying to pick out a song . dante : [ chuckles ] lulu : what ? dante : that 's , uh , exactly what you were doing the night we met . maxie : what do you mean ? what does it have to do with the baby ? spinelli : i urged ellie to let it go , but she was convinced that something was amiss and that you were neglecting to be honest about it . maxie : spinelli , i can explain that . spinelli : but was she right ? i - is there something wrong with dante and lulu 's baby and , for whatever reason , you feel responsible ? because , maxie , if that 's the truth , you -- i implore you to tell the parents the truth . i mean , they are , after all , your friends , and they deserve to know . maxie : fine . fine . y - you want to know what ellie needed to tell you ? she hacked into my medical records . spinelli : what ? maxie : yeah . your perfect little girlfriend is a sneak and a thief . she got so wrapped up in this conspiracy , she actually broke the law . spinelli : and ? maxie : and what ? spinelli : well , look , i 'm not condoning her methods , but i 'm curious . did the search prove fruitful ? maxie : oh , yeah . there was plenty of fruit . ellie discovered that there was nothing wrong with this baby . spinelli : [ chuckling ] well , that -- that 's wonderful news . maxie : is n't it . spinelli : i imagine you 're not too happy with ellie . maxie : [ sighs ] well , i was , uh , furious at first , but she knows she messed up , and she was a big enough person to admit it , so , in turn , i 've let it go . spinelli : well , that 's very generous . maxie : yeah , so , um , that 's the really important thing that ellie needed to tell you . i wanted you to hear it directly from her , but since you kept badgering me ... spinelli : you know , i 'd like -- i 'd actually like to hear it from her as well , so when she gets back , could you have her give me a call ? maxie : not a problem , spinelli . bye . ellie : what are you doing ? maxie : what does it look like ? ellie : that was a stall at best , maxie . i 'm telling damian the truth . maxie : not until you hear me out first . ellie : [ sighs ] nikolas : perhaps we should talk about something else . laura : just hear me out , please . nikolas : okay . okay . laura : your relationship with elizabeth was anything but simple . nikolas : understatement . laura : it had huge , huge consequences , practically destroyed your relationship with lucky . you almost lost your own brother . nikolas : mother , i - i - i know that . i know that . i thank god every single day that he 's been so forgiving . laura : and what if he 's not so forgiving the second time around ? nikolas : what if he 's not ? he 's in no position to forgive -- to forgive anything . he 's not married to elizabeth . i mean , he has n't even been back here to visit her in over a year . laura : that does n't mean that he 's indifferent to her . look , she has every right to move on with her life , but if he finds out that she has moved on -- nikolas : i know that . i know that . laura : with you , it 's gon na be incredibly painful for him . and i know that we all think of lucky as a rock . and god knows [ sighs ] we expected far too much of him growing up . nikolas : mother -- laura : but after everything he 's been through , nikolas ... nikolas : i know lucky , okay ? that 's -- that 's why i let elizabeth go . and she -- she went off to be with lucky , who turned around and went to ireland , okay ? he 's there . i 'm here . these -- these are the circumstances . wh - what do you want me to do ? laura : so , because your brother 's not here , it makes it all okay ? nikolas : no . it 's not about that . it 's because aj quartermaine is pursuing elizabeth , okay ? he 's not a good person . of all the quartermaines , he is , by far , the worst . she should not be with him . there . i said it . laura : so , then , why did she leave when you were kissing her ? nikolas : to go see aj but only because she felt that there were some things left unresolved . that 's it . laura : ca n't you see what 's happening here ? look , if she works things out with aj and you continue to pursue her , you are setting yourself up to be a homewrecker all over again . aj : hey . stay here . do n't move . do n't say a word , all right ? carly : [ scoffs ] could this night get any worse ? elizabeth : monica , just give me five minutes , and i promise i 'll get out of your hair . elizabeth : monica , what -- aj : elizabeth , i thought i heard you . monica : oh , well , aj . look who 's here . elizabeth : did i wake you ? aj : uh , no . no . i was , uh , just doing some reading . elizabeth : what happened to your mouth ? aj : um ... it 's -- it 's a long story . you know , let 's -- let 's go in here and talk . elizabeth : okay . aj : okay . i , uh -- i got to be honest . i 'm kind of surprised to see you . elizabeth : i did n't like the way we left things . aj : yeah , me either . elizabeth : and i was hoping that it 's not too late to fix them . monica : i do n't know who you are , but you are not elizabeth webber . after many destructive , disastrous relationships , my son has finally found someone who is good for him . and i am not , under any circumstances , going to let anybody ruin it . monica : carly . this is n't happening . you and aj did n't -- carly : no ! no , we -- we did n't . i mean , this is not at all what it looks like . monica : oh , really ? oh , really ? because what it looks like is you and my son just had wild sex . elizabeth : i 've been thinking about us and what happened and how i treated you and -- aj : elizabeth -- elizabeth : no , please , let me just get this out . aj : okay . elizabeth : i realize now the confrontation you and nikolas had -- i - i kind of overreacted . aj : no . look , you were insulted . i mean , it 's completely -- elizabeth : and obviously , i did n't -- i was n't happy with the way you dealt with things , but i did n't deal with them well , either , and i - i should n't have gone off on you like that , aj . i 'm really sorry . aj : no , please . please , do n't apologize . i mean , look , if anyone overreacted , it was me . i acted like a neanderthal , you know -- marking my territory and then going postal when he answered your phone . elizabeth : well , you did n't know i was gon na be with nikolas . i get it . aj : well , i get that there 's nothing going on between you two . i mean , you guys were friends for years before you , you know , became more than friends , and , uh -- i do n't know . you know , i was an idiot to think that -- that he had any kind of romantic intentions . i 'm sorry . elizabeth : actually , you 're not too far from the truth . nikolas : wow , homewrecker ? laura : that came out a lot worse than i intended it to . nikolas : lucky and elizabeth were engaged . what she and i did was blatant betrayal -- something i own , by the way . but she -- she and aj -- they 're barely dating , if that . he 's -- he 's half the man that lucky is . laura : well , i wo n't argue with you on that . nikolas : he 's never given anyone any reason to trust him , let alone respect him . laura : so , because you feel that way about aj , it 's fair to break up elizabeth 's relationship -- one that she seemed to be happy in until you came back to town ? monica : you are detestable . carly : tell me how you really feel . monica : destroying my son 's life once was n't enough for you ? you had to worm your way back in again ? carly : i want nothing to do with aj 's life . monica : oh , really ? carly : yeah , really . i mean , you might think he 's terrific , and you adore him , and you enable him . and you might think that there 's someone who desires him , and maybe somewhere out there , somebody does . that 's not me , okay ? the thought of aj makes me nauseous . monica : then why did you have sex with him ? ! ellie : talk all you want , but even if i do n't call damian , he 's not gon na be away on quartermaine business forever . the father of your child will come home . maxie : do n't call him that . ellie : why , maxie ? that 's what he is . damian spinelli is the father of your child . you know it . i know it . and damian deserves to know it , too , not to mention dante and lulu . [ cell phone ringing ] ellie : that 's him , is n't it ? think about it , maxie . yes , you can put off this conversation for now , but you ca n't put it off indefinitely . [ ringing continues ] maxie : watch me . [ ringing stops ] ellie : i 'll get back to you as soon as i can . have a great day ! [ beep ] spinelli : [ sighs ] ellie , it -- it 's me . um , look , i know i was supposed to wait for your call , but i - i just wanted you to know that i spoke -- i spoke to maxie , and , um , she told me what happened . i 'm thrilled that everything is copacetic with the baby , but i ca n't -- i ca n't help but wonder ... when you asked me for help getting onto the hospital mainframe , was your intention all along to hack into maxie 's file ? because , if so ... i 'm a bit miffed . as you may recall , i clearly asked you to let that matter lie , and clearly , that was not an option for you , so i think we should discuss why . maxie : you do n't realize what this will do to dante and lulu after everything they 've been through trying to conceive -- to lose the baby now . ellie : they already lost it , maxie , on new year 's eve when you miscarried . and the baby that you 're carrying is n't theirs . maxie : it could be . it should be , and that 's the point . ellie : no . the point is you 're lying . and the supposed parents deserve to know that 's not their baby . maxie : why ruin their dreams when we do n't have to ? ellie : because it is wrong . maxie : dante and lulu want a child , and i 'm gon na give it to them . ellie : maxie , you are supposed to be their friend . maxie : i am . i love them like they were my family . and that 's not easy for me to say . i 'm doing this because i love them . you know , on new year 's eve , when i had that miscarriage , i thought it was over . [ chuckles ] the prospect of having to have the conversation with them -- `` um , i 'm sorry . i know you planned all your hopes and dreams on my uterus , but it seems it 's as messed up as i am . `` no . no . that -- that thought made me sick . and it made me do something colossally stupid . ellie : like sleep with my boyfriend ? maxie : but that mistake turned into a - a blessing , and i saw this perfect solution to a nightmare of a problem . ellie : maxie , look , i understand why your mind would go there . i - i truly do . breaking someone 's heart -- it 's a terrifying prospect , especially when that heart belongs to your best friend , but you have to understand that sometimes the right choices are the toughest ones . dante and lulu deserved to know the truth from the beginning . they still had other embryos . they -- they could have found another surrogate , and they could have been expecting a child right now . maxie : they -- they are expecting . ellie : a biological child . maxie : biology does not matter to dante and lulu . ellie : you are not , honestly , using that as a justification ! maxie : you know , if i have to tell dante and lulu the truth about this child , that means i 'm gon na have to tell spinelli , too . and you need to be honest with yourself . do you want that anymore than i do ? ellie : [ sighs ] milo : that 's it . i 'm going to look for lulu . max : turn around . whoa ! whoa , whoa , whoa . milo : why do you have to tell me what to do all the time ? max : 'cause i 'm older and bigger . milo : i could beat you in an arm wrestle any day of the week . max : oh , yeah ? yeah ? you want to put that to the test , little brother ? at least it 'll keep you from running out the door . milo : what 's so wrong with me looking out for a friend , max ? max : lulu 's not your friend . she 's the girl you 've been crushing on for years , who also happens to be married to the boss 's son . what do you think mr. c 's gon na do , huh , when he finds out you 've been hiding lulu from dante ? milo : nothing good . max : nothing good . so , sit your butt down and relax . here . take the peas . milo : edamame . max : why do you got to keep bringing her up ? lulu : that 's not fair . dante : what 's not fair ? lulu : i do n't remember the night we met , so you could be making this all up . dante : that 's true . guess you got to take my word for it . lulu : [ scoffs ] right here ? dante : right here . i mean , it was called something different back then . it was called jake 's . but that jukebox , four years ago . ask coleman . he was here that night . i was talking with him at the bar when you walked through that door . lulu : coleman . i am so glad you 're here . i am desperate . coleman : i 'm all yours . lulu : yeah ? coleman : yeah . lulu : um , i need you to have another karaoke night as soon as possible . coleman : sure , but , uh , you and the maxettes gon na sing again ? lulu : [ chuckles ] i do n't know . actually , this is about spinelli . coleman : god , was he great or what , huh ? did he send you over here ? lulu : no . coleman : oh . lulu : he wants to marry maxie , and he got her this ring , and she took it even though she 's nowhere near ready to marry him . coleman : ah , and you think if he 's obsessed about singing his heart out to her , he 'll stop obsessing about marrying her . lulu : yes . exactly . how did you know that ? [ chuckles ] coleman : that 's what joints like this are for . it 's all about love and the lack of it . dante : you walked over here to the jukebox . some creepy guy was hitting on you . i chased him off . lulu : are you sure that 's what i wanted ? dante : [ chuckles ] yeah . i 'm sure that 's what you wanted . you were picking out a song for your friend spinelli . dante : so , when 's karaoke night ? lulu : i do n't know . you 'll have to watch for signs . dante : is n't it great , being in the maxettes ? lulu : who are you ? dante : i 'm just the man of your dreams . lulu : [ laughs ] dante : so , who are the maxettes ? lulu : oh , it 's a karaoke thing . dante : who 's max ? lulu : my boyfriend . dante : [ chuckles ] liar . lulu : could be true . dante : you do care a lot about your friends . i like that . lulu : how do you know how i feel about my friends ? dante : well , let 's see . it 's all about spinelli , really , whoever he is . he wants to marry maxie , whoever she is -- wait . maxie and the maxettes , right ? lulu : who are you ? dante : what else ? spinelli gave maxie this amazing ring , which she took , but she does n't know that she wants to marry him , at which point , coleman figured that if he gets obsessed with singing about her , he 's gon na forget about marrying her , which is unlikely , by the way . lulu : i ... do n't know if that would be classified as listening or just plain eavesdropping . dante : that 's a little bit of both , actually . buy you a beer ? lulu : sure . why not ? dante : you , uh , shoot pool ? lulu : a little . now and then . dante : you were trying to get spinelli to stop obsessing over maxie . lulu : maxie -- she 's the one that 's -- dante : she 's pregnant with our baby . you remember that ? lulu : no . i mean , yes , but only because you told me . dante : right . you should , uh -- you should know that you 're really good with your friends -- loving , loyal . it 's kind of weird , actually . lulu : what is ? dante : well , that night , you were trying to help spinelli forget , and here i am trying to help you remember . max : i hate fighting , but you 've got to trust me on this . you know , it 's better if you just stay here and stay out of the way of ... idiot ! elizabeth : nikolas admitted he still has feelings for me . and it did n't end there . aj : where did it end ? elizabeth : we kissed . but i did n't let it go any farther . aj : you mind if i ask why not ? elizabeth : [ chuckles ] i 'm still trying to figure that out myself . partly because of lucky and the fact that i still feel guilty over what happened the last time nikolas and i got together ... and partly because of you . i kind of thought we had a nice thing going . and i would like to see what happens if you do . aj : yeah , i do . very much . look , i - i really appreciate you coming over here . i know that this could not have been easy for you . elizabeth : yeah , well , i figured if we have a chance at anything , we ca n't hide things from each other . carly : this is will go down as the worst mistake of my entire life . monica : it will be in plentiful company , that 's for sure . carly : ugh , i need an exorcism or lobotomy to get rid of the memory and the image in my -- ugh . monica : well , the image of you and my son in my house on my linens -- carly : okay , okay , okay ! enough , enough ! monica : i 'll tell you something . if you have destroyed the relationship with aj and elizabeth , so help me -- carly : what is wrong with you ? do n't you have any compassion for elizabeth ? i mean , at all ? she 's been through hell in her life , and aj -- he 's a walking disaster . monica : anybody is better than you . carly : well , then , you better not say a word . monica : oh , do you think i would be tempted to do otherwise ? this is one secret i would never tell . maxie : you think when spinelli finds out that i 'm carrying his child , that will not have a serious impact on your relationship -- probably not in a good way ? ellie : i 'll take my chances . maxie : for someone who 's so smart about molecules , you are crazy naive . when spinelli finds out i am the mother of his child , that will change everything . ellie : maybe . but maybe not . but , maxie , this is n't about me . it 's about damian 's right to know that that is his baby and dante and lulu 's right to know that it 's not theirs . lulu : so , what ? you 're just bailing on your story ? dante : well , it 's our story , actually . and i did n't think you 'd want to hear it . you want to play ? you 're actually pretty good . lulu : now , that does n't surprise me . move . dante : it really is like that first night all over again . you know , you have n't even told me your name yet . lulu : trixie . dante : nice to meet you , trix . i 'm thor . lulu : no , you 're not . my turn ? dante : yeah , go ahead . lulu : i 'm really angelyne . dante : mm . i 'm really biff -- biff beauregard . lulu : biff beauregard . [ clears throat ] okay . now you 've insulted me . tell me your real name . dante : no , you first . lulu : i 'm lulu . dante : so , lulu , do you , uh ... do you come here often ? lulu : oh , no . you did not just say , `` do you come here often ? `` dante : that 's when your brother ethan showed up and , uh , called me out on my lame line . lulu : i have a brother ethan ? dante : yeah . lulu : well , he was right . dante : [ chuckles ] lulu : it 's a pretty lame line . dante : but it was a damn good time . lulu : trixie . dante : d - did something just happen ? i just -- it looked like you remembered something right now . milo : lulu , there you are . lulu : i ... dante : milo , please , not now . we 're in the middle of something . lulu : yeah , i 'm fine . i - i want to go . i want to go right now . dante : no , no , no , no , no . listen , listen , listen . wait . wait , please . do n't go . all right , now , okay , you remembered something . and do n't tell me you did n't , because i know your face . did you see what happened next ? your other brother lucky , he came in . and he and ethan -- they kicked the crap out of me . [ chuckles ] lulu : you probably deserved it . dante : but is that what you remembered ? milo : maybe you should back off a little . dante : i got the crap kicked out of me . i took a beating with a smile on my face , because i was n't giving up on you . not then and not now . lulu : i have to go . i have to go . let 's go . let 's go . maxie : i know this situation is complicated and messy . ellie : but ? maxie : sorry , the baby just moved . ellie : just -- just right now ? maxie : at first , it was like a flutter , but now it 's [ chuckling ] turned into this full - fledged roll . do you want to feel it ? here . ellie : okay . maxie : did you feel that ? ellie : oh , my god . [ sniffles ] yeah . that 's definite movement . i ca n't imagine what it 's like from the inside . maxie : this baby is real , ellie . i 'm not trying to be mean or deceitful . i ... honestly think that this will work . ellie : not for damian . maxie : yes . yes . even for spinelli . look , i - i know he wants kids , but on his own terms , not with me , not when i 'm not ready , and not when it 's gon na cost dante and lulu everything . they 're his friends , too . ellie : i do n't know , maxie . maxie : i think you do . spinelli will want to be a father , so keeping this quiet is what 's best for everyone -- dante , lulu , spinelli , you , and this baby -- but if you disagree with me , then , please , tell him . [ cell phone ringing ] spinelli : [ sighs ] [ ringing continues ] maxie : it 's him . [ ringing continues ] [ ringing stops ] ellie : damn you , maxie . [ door slams ] maxie : [ sighs ] monica : hold it . you stay right there . get out . and do n't you ever , ever touch my son again . carly : that is a promise i can keep . monica : [ whispering ] get out . elizabeth : i should go . aj : really ? elizabeth : yeah . it 's late , and your mom was not a fan of me showing up like this . aj : well , i 'll tell you what -- i 'm a fan . elizabeth : [ chuckles ] well , yeah ? aj : yeah . um , i - i think it 's really great that -- that this is -- that us , we -- we 're important enough that you 're willing to fight for it . elizabeth : us ? oh , so it 's official ? we get a do - over ? aj : absolutely . i think i 'm just gon na pretend these last 24 hours never happened . nikolas : mother , i - i do n't know what 's fair or what 's not fair anymore . laura : well , you do n't have to figure it all out tonight . nikolas : thank you . laura : [ chuckles ] get some rest , okay ? nikolas : i will . and thank you for all the -- all the groceries . i appreciate it . laura : you 're welcome . i love you , nikolas . nikolas : i love you , too . laura : just one more piece of advice , okay , hon ? nikolas : [ chuckles ] like i could stop you . laura : it is entirely up to elizabeth whether or not she continues to see aj , and the best thing that you can do here is to stay out of it . nikolas : what if i ca n't ? aj : so , we 'll talk soon ? elizabeth : you have my number . aj : um , i 'm gon na take that as a `` yes . `` elizabeth : [ chuckles ] aj : elizabeth , good night . elizabeth : good night . aj : [ sighs ] monica : hello . aj : you scared the crap out of me ! monica : for the first or second time tonight ? aj : so , i guess you know that that was n't elizabeth up there . monica : carly ? aj : i know . monica : aj , what were you thinking ? ! aj : i was n't . i was n't . monica : have you started drinking again ? aj : no . i was ... completely sober . monica : let me tell you one thing . if elizabeth ever finds out about what happened tonight , your little do - over is gon na go right up in smoke . | ellie calls spinelli to tell him that maxie is pregnant with his child . maxie wrestles the phone away from ellie and tells spinelli that ellie had to step out . she tells him that ellie broke the law by hacking into her medical records and stealing the file . she tells ellie that she has to hear her out before she says anything to spinelli . maxie hits the ignore button when spinelli calls ellie back . he leaves a message telling ellie that he will be annoyed if it turns out that she asked him to help her get into the hospital mainframe so she could hack maxie 's file after he had asked her to drop her inquiries . ellie tells maxie that dante and lulu need to know the truth . maxie says ellie is naïve if she does n't think revealing that the baby is genetically maxie and spinelli 's will change her relationship with spinelli . ellie says it is n't about her ; it is about dante , lulu , and spinelli 's right to know the truth . maxie lets ellie feel the baby move . she says she knows spinelli wants children , but not now , not with her , and not at the cost of his dante and lulu 's future . she says that if ellie does n't agree that keeping the secret will be best for everyone , including herself , then she can tell spinelli the truth . spinelli tries to call ellie again , but she ignores the call and leaves the apartment without her phone . | <s>[INST] ellie : damian , i - i need to tell you something of the utmost importance . spinelli : it sounds serious . ellie : it could n't be more serious . dante : if you 're gon na stay here with our good buddy milo , then so am i . lulu : wait , what ? dante : i - i 'm sorry . was i not clear ? lulu : you ca n't do that . you ca n't -- you ca n't stay here . dante : why not ? i - is someone gon na stop me ? 'cause if that 's the plan , you 're gon na need to call in some extra muscle . laura : you know , i really was n't happy that you left the hospital so soon , nikolas , but you do look fantastic . nikolas : thank you . laura : how do -- how do you feel ? nikolas : uh , better -- physically , anyway . laura : uh - huh . nikolas : any news on lulu ? laura : uh , well , we do n't know where she is or who she 's staying with , but we know she 's safe , so ... nikolas : good . good . how 's dante holding up ? laura : keeping busy . nikolas : tearing the town apart looking for your wife will tend to do that to you . laura : yeah , i just hope that when he finds her , he can actually get through to her . are you ... alone here ? nikolas : [ chuckles ] uh , yeah . should i not be ? laura : well , it 's just that i thought that elizabeth was going to help you get settled in . you know , you could have called me . i would have come over and -- nikolas : elizabeth was here . laura : but she 's not here now ? nikolas : no . she left right after i kissed her . monica : uh , e - elizabeth . i ... uh , how did you -- what are you doing here ? carly : your mom was so excited at the idea of elizabeth being in this bed , she 's gon na bring up milk and cookies . aj : okay , you know what ? hey , i will throw us out of the window before that happens . no one can know about this , especially my mother . carly : [ chuckles ] can you imagine the look on her face if she knew it were me in this bed instead of elizabeth ? aj : she 's never gon na find out . [ cell phone rings ] carly : oh , god . aj : what 's the matter ? carly : oh , god . it 's mercedes . hi , mercedes . i 'm so sorry . i 'm -- i 'm so sorry i 'm late . you know , um , something came up -- something that will never , ever come up around me again . elizabeth : i know it 's late , but i would really like to speak with aj if that 's okay . monica : you ca n't . max : what 's going on ? i thought you would have taken lulu home by now . dante : oh , apparently , she 's not going anywhere . lulu : yeah , and apparently , that means neither is he . dante : so , grab a chair , max . it 's about to get real cozy in here . milo : yeah , do n't even think about it , huh ? see , brothers are supposed to have each other 's backs . max : i do have your back , dummy . that 's why i called dante . milo : you could have called and warned me that you 'd actually gone through with ratting me out . if i 'd have known he was gon na storm over here , i might have been able to defend myself . dante : please , you 're lucky all you got was one punch . lulu : oh , okay , caveman . max : he cracked you one , huh ? i figured that 's what the peas were about . milo : edamame . more protein . max : why do you got to bring your mom into this ? why do you have to do any of this at all ? i told you there would be trouble , and look . milo : because of you and your big mouth . max : no , no , no , no , no . do n't blame me . dante is the boss 's son . it 's our ya- bay [ job ] to look out for his best interests . lulu : what about my best interests ? max : i 'm looking out for those , too . dante : actually , we 're all looking out for those -- well , most of us , anyway . milo : all i want is to help lulu , man . dante : milo , if that 's true , then you 'll understand why i need to be with her . lulu : you 're seriously staying ? dante : i seriously am . lulu : fine . have fun with your testosterone - fest , 'cause i 'm out of here . ellie : what i 'm about to tell you is gon na change everything . maxie : no , no , no ! no . ellie : maxie , give it back . maxie : no . let go of the phone . spinelli : el - ellie ? ellie , hello ? maxie : ellie , hang up . hang up . ellie : no . laura : you kissed elizabeth ? nikolas : [ chuckles ] do n't seem so surprised . laura : well , i am surprised , to be honest . i mean , i thought the two of you were over . what happened ? what changed ? nikolas : nothing changed . that 's the point . i feel the same about her as i did the day i left . laura : and how does she feel ? you know , 'cause i was under the impression that she was seeing aj quartermaine . did n't he take her to the nurses ' ball ? nikolas : now , how could you know that when you were halfway around the world , mother ? laura : well [ sighs ] she 's the mother of my grandchildren , and i guess i make it a point to stay abreast of what 's going on in her life . not to mention , it was in the papers . i mean , to me , she and aj looked pretty close . nikolas : they were . but things are different now . elizabeth : is aj not home ? 'cause i thought i saw his car in the front ? monica : oh , no . uh , no . he 's -- he 's home . he 's home . elizabeth : well , then , why ca n't i see him ? monica : i ca n't tell you how wonderful it feels to finally approve of a woman who is sharing your bed . oh , elizabeth is so far above the women you were seeing when you were drinking . aj : um , mom , listen . i - i - i should probably get -- monica : oh , of course . oh , of course . of course . please apologize to elizabeth . i 'm so sorry i interrupted . aj : it 's okay . elizabeth : monica ? monica : hmm ? elizabeth : is everything okay ? monica : oh . oh , yes . y - yes . yes , everything is fine . i - i -- well , i was just upstairs , and , uh -- and aj is asleep ... i think . carly : i 'm going straight home . i 'm gon na take two aspirin and hope whatever disease has taken over me tonight will be gone in the morning . aj : great . you 'll understand if i do n't walk you out , right ? carly : i do n't need you to walk me anywhere . aj : good . okay ! bye ! what ? what 's with the face ? carly : your mom thinks i 'm elizabeth . aj : uh , no offense , but there is no comparison . carly : what if she says something to her ? aj : what , to elizabeth ? carly : yeah . i mean , they both work at the same hospital . i 'm sure they run into each other from time to time . aj : what is she gon na say ? what ? `` oh , hey , have fun sleeping with my son the other night ? `` talk about awkward . carly : you better say nothing . aj : what are you talking about ? i 'm disgusted . i 'm not gon na say a word . carly : cone of silence . aj : cone of silence . i 'm not gon na say a thing . elizabeth : monica , it 's kind of important . it wo n't take long . monica : elizabeth , i just -- i just know that this is the right time . elizabeth : please . if he 's asleep , i promise i 'll leave . let me just run up and check . monica : even if he is awake , he , um -- well , he just seemed really worn - out tonight . elizabeth : oh , that 's all my fault . things we said earlier -- things that i regret -- and i just do n't want to leave it until the morning . like i said , it wo n't take long . monica : well , i - i - i do n't know , really . elizabeth : monica , i highly doubt he 's sound asleep . he 's probably upstairs tossing and turning . monica : well , that 's entirely possible . aj : hey , back for round two ? carly : of misery ? no , thank you . elizabeth is here , and she 's on her way up right now . nikolas : while you were off rescuing lulu , elizabeth and i got close again . laura : well , scotty told me that she practically lived next to your bedside . well , i - i 'm grateful to her for that . i am . nikolas : aj does n't , uh , share your sentiments , apparently . i mean , i 've -- i 've seen spencer react to bad news more maturely . laura : what happened ? nikolas : [ scoffs ] he threw a - a [ chuckles ] jealous rage , showed up at my hospital room beating his chest , warning me to stay away from his woman . laura : he did n't say that . nikolas : yeah . close enough . laura : was elizabeth there ? nikolas : no , but when i told her what happened , she was n't happy about it . she confronted aj and broke up with him . laura : i see . nikolas : [ chuckling ] yeah . paranoia is a powerful thing , apparently . he was so convinced that i was out to steal elizabeth from him , he ended up driving her away himself . laura : but was he ? paranoid ? 'cause you just kind of admitted that you wanted elizabeth . nikolas : i know , but i was n't at that point -- not yet . laura : but you are now . nikolas , i 'm sorry , honey . i wish i could back you up on this one , but i think this -- this is such a bad idea . ellie : oh , i will not ! maxie : do you really think you should be fighting with a pregnant person ? i already had one miscarriage . spinelli . it 's maxie . spinelli : maxie . uh ... what 's going on ? it sounded like the phone made its way through a wood chipper . maxie : it 's really windy outside . probably a poor connection . spinelli : okay , where -- where 's ellie ? maxie : she had to step out . spinelli : in the middle of our conversation ? ellie : [ sighs ] maxie : she told me to tell you she would talk to you later . spinelli : well , i mean , that 's curious , because she said she had news of the utmost importance to relay . maxie : well , i guess it could wait . spinelli : maxie ? maxie : yeah . spinelli : does this have something to do with dante and lulu 's baby ? dante : lulu , please , just give me a chance here , okay ? lulu : milo , thank you so much for letting me stay here . thank you for being so patient and understanding . that was exactly what i needed , and it meant the world to me . thank you so much . milo : lulu , wait up . dante : uh , no . no . you 're not going anywhere . milo : she 's upset . dante : yeah , and i 'll handle it . milo : dante , she does n't want to talk -- dante : you do n't know what she wants ! and she does n't know what she wants , either . keep a leash on your brother , please , max . i 'm going to find my wife . milo : maybe we should go look for lulu . max : and piss off dante even more ? you heard him , milo . he 's got this . milo : i know he thinks that , but lulu -- max : lulu is his wife . milo : well , she 's not feeling it right now . what if she runs away -- for real , this time ? or falls in with bad company ? she could end up on pier 52 -- that place is like a death trap . max : what if you stop worrying , all right ? just relax . dante will find her . dante : coleman , hey . have you seen lulu ? coleman : yeah . by the jukebox . dante : thanks . coleman : you know me , man . no blonde goes unnoticed , brother . dante : you , uh , need a couple quarters ? lulu : what did you do , plant a gps on me ? dante : [ chuckles ] no . i 'm a detective . it 's my job to find things . lulu : oh , awesome . so , now i 'm a thing . dante : that 's not what i meant , and you know it . lulu : do you mind ? i 'm trying to pick out a song . dante : [ chuckles ] lulu : what ? dante : that 's , uh , exactly what you were doing the night we met . maxie : what do you mean ? what does it have to do with the baby ? spinelli : i urged ellie to let it go , but she was convinced that something was amiss and that you were neglecting to be honest about it . maxie : spinelli , i can explain that . spinelli : but was she right ? i - is there something wrong with dante and lulu 's baby and , for whatever reason , you feel responsible ? because , maxie , if that 's the truth , you -- i implore you to tell the parents the truth . i mean , they are , after all , your friends , and they deserve to know . maxie : fine . fine . y - you want to know what ellie needed to tell you ? she hacked into my medical records . spinelli : what ? maxie : yeah . your perfect little girlfriend is a sneak and a thief . she got so wrapped up in this conspiracy , she actually broke the law . spinelli : and ? maxie : and what ? spinelli : well , look , i 'm not condoning her methods , but i 'm curious . did the search prove fruitful ? maxie : oh , yeah . there was plenty of fruit . ellie discovered that there was nothing wrong with this baby . spinelli : [ chuckling ] well , that -- that 's wonderful news . maxie : is n't it . spinelli : i imagine you 're not too happy with ellie . maxie : [ sighs ] well , i was , uh , furious at first , but she knows she messed up , and she was a big enough person to admit it , so , in turn , i 've let it go . spinelli : well , that 's very generous . maxie : yeah , so , um , that 's the really important thing that ellie needed to tell you . i wanted you to hear it directly from her , but since you kept badgering me ... spinelli : you know , i 'd like -- i 'd actually like to hear it from her as well , so when she gets back , could you have her give me a call ? maxie : not a problem , spinelli . bye . ellie : what are you doing ? maxie : what does it look like ? ellie : that was a stall at best , maxie . i 'm telling damian the truth . maxie : not until you hear me out first . ellie : [ sighs ] nikolas : perhaps we should talk about something else . laura : just hear me out , please . nikolas : okay . okay . laura : your relationship with elizabeth was anything but simple . nikolas : understatement . laura : it had huge , huge consequences , practically destroyed your relationship with lucky . you almost lost your own brother . nikolas : mother , i - i - i know that . i know that . i thank god every single day that he 's been so forgiving . laura : and what if he 's not so forgiving the second time around ? nikolas : what if he 's not ? he 's in no position to forgive -- to forgive anything . he 's not married to elizabeth . i mean , he has n't even been back here to visit her in over a year . laura : that does n't mean that he 's indifferent to her . look , she has every right to move on with her life , but if he finds out that she has moved on -- nikolas : i know that . i know that . laura : with you , it 's gon na be incredibly painful for him . and i know that we all think of lucky as a rock . and god knows [ sighs ] we expected far too much of him growing up . nikolas : mother -- laura : but after everything he 's been through , nikolas ... nikolas : i know lucky , okay ? that 's -- that 's why i let elizabeth go . and she -- she went off to be with lucky , who turned around and went to ireland , okay ? he 's there . i 'm here . these -- these are the circumstances . wh - what do you want me to do ? laura : so , because your brother 's not here , it makes it all okay ? nikolas : no . it 's not about that . it 's because aj quartermaine is pursuing elizabeth , okay ? he 's not a good person . of all the quartermaines , he is , by far , the worst . she should not be with him . there . i said it . laura : so , then , why did she leave when you were kissing her ? nikolas : to go see aj but only because she felt that there were some things left unresolved . that 's it . laura : ca n't you see what 's happening here ? look , if she works things out with aj and you continue to pursue her , you are setting yourself up to be a homewrecker all over again . aj : hey . stay here . do n't move . do n't say a word , all right ? carly : [ scoffs ] could this night get any worse ? elizabeth : monica , just give me five minutes , and i promise i 'll get out of your hair . elizabeth : monica , what -- aj : elizabeth , i thought i heard you . monica : oh , well , aj . look who 's here . elizabeth : did i wake you ? aj : uh , no . no . i was , uh , just doing some reading . elizabeth : what happened to your mouth ? aj : um ... it 's -- it 's a long story . you know , let 's -- let 's go in here and talk . elizabeth : okay . aj : okay . i , uh -- i got to be honest . i 'm kind of surprised to see you . elizabeth : i did n't like the way we left things . aj : yeah , me either . elizabeth : and i was hoping that it 's not too late to fix them . monica : i do n't know who you are , but you are not elizabeth webber . after many destructive , disastrous relationships , my son has finally found someone who is good for him . and i am not , under any circumstances , going to let anybody ruin it . monica : carly . this is n't happening . you and aj did n't -- carly : no ! no , we -- we did n't . i mean , this is not at all what it looks like . monica : oh , really ? oh , really ? because what it looks like is you and my son just had wild sex . elizabeth : i 've been thinking about us and what happened and how i treated you and -- aj : elizabeth -- elizabeth : no , please , let me just get this out . aj : okay . elizabeth : i realize now the confrontation you and nikolas had -- i - i kind of overreacted . aj : no . look , you were insulted . i mean , it 's completely -- elizabeth : and obviously , i did n't -- i was n't happy with the way you dealt with things , but i did n't deal with them well , either , and i - i should n't have gone off on you like that , aj . i 'm really sorry . aj : no , please . please , do n't apologize . i mean , look , if anyone overreacted , it was me . i acted like a neanderthal , you know -- marking my territory and then going postal when he answered your phone . elizabeth : well , you did n't know i was gon na be with nikolas . i get it . aj : well , i get that there 's nothing going on between you two . i mean , you guys were friends for years before you , you know , became more than friends , and , uh -- i do n't know . you know , i was an idiot to think that -- that he had any kind of romantic intentions . i 'm sorry . elizabeth : actually , you 're not too far from the truth . nikolas : wow , homewrecker ? laura : that came out a lot worse than i intended it to . nikolas : lucky and elizabeth were engaged . what she and i did was blatant betrayal -- something i own , by the way . but she -- she and aj -- they 're barely dating , if that . he 's -- he 's half the man that lucky is . laura : well , i wo n't argue with you on that . nikolas : he 's never given anyone any reason to trust him , let alone respect him . laura : so , because you feel that way about aj , it 's fair to break up elizabeth 's relationship -- one that she seemed to be happy in until you came back to town ? monica : you are detestable . carly : tell me how you really feel . monica : destroying my son 's life once was n't enough for you ? you had to worm your way back in again ? carly : i want nothing to do with aj 's life . monica : oh , really ? carly : yeah , really . i mean , you might think he 's terrific , and you adore him , and you enable him . and you might think that there 's someone who desires him , and maybe somewhere out there , somebody does . that 's not me , okay ? the thought of aj makes me nauseous . monica : then why did you have sex with him ? ! ellie : talk all you want , but even if i do n't call damian , he 's not gon na be away on quartermaine business forever . the father of your child will come home . maxie : do n't call him that . ellie : why , maxie ? that 's what he is . damian spinelli is the father of your child . you know it . i know it . and damian deserves to know it , too , not to mention dante and lulu . [ cell phone ringing ] ellie : that 's him , is n't it ? think about it , maxie . yes , you can put off this conversation for now , but you ca n't put it off indefinitely . [ ringing continues ] maxie : watch me . [ ringing stops ] ellie : i 'll get back to you as soon as i can . have a great day ! [ beep ] spinelli : [ sighs ] ellie , it -- it 's me . um , look , i know i was supposed to wait for your call , but i - i just wanted you to know that i spoke -- i spoke to maxie , and , um , she told me what happened . i 'm thrilled that everything is copacetic with the baby , but i ca n't -- i ca n't help but wonder ... when you asked me for help getting onto the hospital mainframe , was your intention all along to hack into maxie 's file ? because , if so ... i 'm a bit miffed . as you may recall , i clearly asked you to let that matter lie , and clearly , that was not an option for you , so i think we should discuss why . maxie : you do n't realize what this will do to dante and lulu after everything they 've been through trying to conceive -- to lose the baby now . ellie : they already lost it , maxie , on new year 's eve when you miscarried . and the baby that you 're carrying is n't theirs . maxie : it could be . it should be , and that 's the point . ellie : no . the point is you 're lying . and the supposed parents deserve to know that 's not their baby . maxie : why ruin their dreams when we do n't have to ? ellie : because it is wrong . maxie : dante and lulu want a child , and i 'm gon na give it to them . ellie : maxie , you are supposed to be their friend . maxie : i am . i love them like they were my family . and that 's not easy for me to say . i 'm doing this because i love them . you know , on new year 's eve , when i had that miscarriage , i thought it was over . [ chuckles ] the prospect of having to have the conversation with them -- `` um , i 'm sorry . i know you planned all your hopes and dreams on my uterus , but it seems it 's as messed up as i am . `` no . no . that -- that thought made me sick . and it made me do something colossally stupid . ellie : like sleep with my boyfriend ? maxie : but that mistake turned into a - a blessing , and i saw this perfect solution to a nightmare of a problem . ellie : maxie , look , i understand why your mind would go there . i - i truly do . breaking someone 's heart -- it 's a terrifying prospect , especially when that heart belongs to your best friend , but you have to understand that sometimes the right choices are the toughest ones . dante and lulu deserved to know the truth from the beginning . they still had other embryos . they -- they could have found another surrogate , and they could have been expecting a child right now . maxie : they -- they are expecting . ellie : a biological child . maxie : biology does not matter to dante and lulu . ellie : you are not , honestly , using that as a justification ! maxie : you know , if i have to tell dante and lulu the truth about this child , that means i 'm gon na have to tell spinelli , too . and you need to be honest with yourself . do you want that anymore than i do ? ellie : [ sighs ] milo : that 's it . i 'm going to look for lulu . max : turn around . whoa ! whoa , whoa , whoa . milo : why do you have to tell me what to do all the time ? max : 'cause i 'm older and bigger . milo : i could beat you in an arm wrestle any day of the week . max : oh , yeah ? yeah ? you want to put that to the test , little brother ? at least it 'll keep you from running out the door . milo : what 's so wrong with me looking out for a friend , max ? max : lulu 's not your friend . she 's the girl you 've been crushing on for years , who also happens to be married to the boss 's son . what do you think mr. c 's gon na do , huh , when he finds out you 've been hiding lulu from dante ? milo : nothing good . max : nothing good . so , sit your butt down and relax . here . take the peas . milo : edamame . max : why do you got to keep bringing her up ? lulu : that 's not fair . dante : what 's not fair ? lulu : i do n't remember the night we met , so you could be making this all up . dante : that 's true . guess you got to take my word for it . lulu : [ scoffs ] right here ? dante : right here . i mean , it was called something different back then . it was called jake 's . but that jukebox , four years ago . ask coleman . he was here that night . i was talking with him at the bar when you walked through that door . lulu : coleman . i am so glad you 're here . i am desperate . coleman : i 'm all yours . lulu : yeah ? coleman : yeah . lulu : um , i need you to have another karaoke night as soon as possible . coleman : sure , but , uh , you and the maxettes gon na sing again ? lulu : [ chuckles ] i do n't know . actually , this is about spinelli . coleman : god , was he great or what , huh ? did he send you over here ? lulu : no . coleman : oh . lulu : he wants to marry maxie , and he got her this ring , and she took it even though she 's nowhere near ready to marry him . coleman : ah , and you think if he 's obsessed about singing his heart out to her , he 'll stop obsessing about marrying her . lulu : yes . exactly . how did you know that ? [ chuckles ] coleman : that 's what joints like this are for . it 's all about love and the lack of it . dante : you walked over here to the jukebox . some creepy guy was hitting on you . i chased him off . lulu : are you sure that 's what i wanted ? dante : [ chuckles ] yeah . i 'm sure that 's what you wanted . you were picking out a song for your friend spinelli . dante : so , when 's karaoke night ? lulu : i do n't know . you 'll have to watch for signs . dante : is n't it great , being in the maxettes ? lulu : who are you ? dante : i 'm just the man of your dreams . lulu : [ laughs ] dante : so , who are the maxettes ? lulu : oh , it 's a karaoke thing . dante : who 's max ? lulu : my boyfriend . dante : [ chuckles ] liar . lulu : could be true . dante : you do care a lot about your friends . i like that . lulu : how do you know how i feel about my friends ? dante : well , let 's see . it 's all about spinelli , really , whoever he is . he wants to marry maxie , whoever she is -- wait . maxie and the maxettes , right ? lulu : who are you ? dante : what else ? spinelli gave maxie this amazing ring , which she took , but she does n't know that she wants to marry him , at which point , coleman figured that if he gets obsessed with singing about her , he 's gon na forget about marrying her , which is unlikely , by the way . lulu : i ... do n't know if that would be classified as listening or just plain eavesdropping . dante : that 's a little bit of both , actually . buy you a beer ? lulu : sure . why not ? dante : you , uh , shoot pool ? lulu : a little . now and then . dante : you were trying to get spinelli to stop obsessing over maxie . lulu : maxie -- she 's the one that 's -- dante : she 's pregnant with our baby . you remember that ? lulu : no . i mean , yes , but only because you told me . dante : right . you should , uh -- you should know that you 're really good with your friends -- loving , loyal . it 's kind of weird , actually . lulu : what is ? dante : well , that night , you were trying to help spinelli forget , and here i am trying to help you remember . max : i hate fighting , but you 've got to trust me on this . you know , it 's better if you just stay here and stay out of the way of ... idiot ! elizabeth : nikolas admitted he still has feelings for me . and it did n't end there . aj : where did it end ? elizabeth : we kissed . but i did n't let it go any farther . aj : you mind if i ask why not ? elizabeth : [ chuckles ] i 'm still trying to figure that out myself . partly because of lucky and the fact that i still feel guilty over what happened the last time nikolas and i got together ... and partly because of you . i kind of thought we had a nice thing going . and i would like to see what happens if you do . aj : yeah , i do . very much . look , i - i really appreciate you coming over here . i know that this could not have been easy for you . elizabeth : yeah , well , i figured if we have a chance at anything , we ca n't hide things from each other . carly : this is will go down as the worst mistake of my entire life . monica : it will be in plentiful company , that 's for sure . carly : ugh , i need an exorcism or lobotomy to get rid of the memory and the image in my -- ugh . monica : well , the image of you and my son in my house on my linens -- carly : okay , okay , okay ! enough , enough ! monica : i 'll tell you something . if you have destroyed the relationship with aj and elizabeth , so help me -- carly : what is wrong with you ? do n't you have any compassion for elizabeth ? i mean , at all ? she 's been through hell in her life , and aj -- he 's a walking disaster . monica : anybody is better than you . carly : well , then , you better not say a word . monica : oh , do you think i would be tempted to do otherwise ? this is one secret i would never tell . maxie : you think when spinelli finds out that i 'm carrying his child , that will not have a serious impact on your relationship -- probably not in a good way ? ellie : i 'll take my chances . maxie : for someone who 's so smart about molecules , you are crazy naive . when spinelli finds out i am the mother of his child , that will change everything . ellie : maybe . but maybe not . but , maxie , this is n't about me . it 's about damian 's right to know that that is his baby and dante and lulu 's right to know that it 's not theirs . lulu : so , what ? you 're just bailing on your story ? dante : well , it 's our story , actually . and i did n't think you 'd want to hear it . you want to play ? you 're actually pretty good . lulu : now , that does n't surprise me . move . dante : it really is like that first night all over again . you know , you have n't even told me your name yet . lulu : trixie . dante : nice to meet you , trix . i 'm thor . lulu : no , you 're not . my turn ? dante : yeah , go ahead . lulu : i 'm really angelyne . dante : mm . i 'm really biff -- biff beauregard . lulu : biff beauregard . [ clears throat ] okay . now you 've insulted me . tell me your real name . dante : no , you first . lulu : i 'm lulu . dante : so , lulu , do you , uh ... do you come here often ? lulu : oh , no . you did not just say , `` do you come here often ? `` dante : that 's when your brother ethan showed up and , uh , called me out on my lame line . lulu : i have a brother ethan ? dante : yeah . lulu : well , he was right . dante : [ chuckles ] lulu : it 's a pretty lame line . dante : but it was a damn good time . lulu : trixie . dante : d - did something just happen ? i just -- it looked like you remembered something right now . milo : lulu , there you are . lulu : i ... dante : milo , please , not now . we 're in the middle of something . lulu : yeah , i 'm fine . i - i want to go . i want to go right now . dante : no , no , no , no , no . listen , listen , listen . wait . wait , please . do n't go . all right , now , okay , you remembered something . and do n't tell me you did n't , because i know your face . did you see what happened next ? your other brother lucky , he came in . and he and ethan -- they kicked the crap out of me . [ chuckles ] lulu : you probably deserved it . dante : but is that what you remembered ? milo : maybe you should back off a little . dante : i got the crap kicked out of me . i took a beating with a smile on my face , because i was n't giving up on you . not then and not now . lulu : i have to go . i have to go . let 's go . let 's go . maxie : i know this situation is complicated and messy . ellie : but ? maxie : sorry , the baby just moved . ellie : just -- just right now ? maxie : at first , it was like a flutter , but now it 's [ chuckling ] turned into this full - fledged roll . do you want to feel it ? here . ellie : okay . maxie : did you feel that ? ellie : oh , my god . [ sniffles ] yeah . that 's definite movement . i ca n't imagine what it 's like from the inside . maxie : this baby is real , ellie . i 'm not trying to be mean or deceitful . i ... honestly think that this will work . ellie : not for damian . maxie : yes . yes . even for spinelli . look , i - i know he wants kids , but on his own terms , not with me , not when i 'm not ready , and not when it 's gon na cost dante and lulu everything . they 're his friends , too . ellie : i do n't know , maxie . maxie : i think you do . spinelli will want to be a father , so keeping this quiet is what 's best for everyone -- dante , lulu , spinelli , you , and this baby -- but if you disagree with me , then , please , tell him .

whitney : oh , god , i do n't know how i 'm going to tell my father i 'm pregnant . fox : look , he may get a little upset , ok ? but think of it this way . it 's not like you 're some knocked - up teenager . i mean , you 're a grown woman . you 're in a committed relationship with me , the father of your baby , right ? whitney : yeah , yeah , yeah , you know , i 'm a grown woman . i mean , having a baby is n't the worst thing in the world . right ? fox : well , it 's our baby . we 're pregnant together . whitney : right . t.c . : what ? whitney , you 're pregnant ? liz : t.c . , do n't get crazy now . t.c . : whitney , you 're pregnant by a crane ? damn it . damn it all to hell ! tabitha : oh , that 's a marvelous poison . dreadfully lethal . and so good for rats . beth : well , you know , not all rats have four legs . i know a two - legged rat i 'd like to get rid of . tina : ms. wallace ? beth : hmm ? tina : from alistair crane . i know this is short notice , but you 've been invited to a party tonight at the mansion , black tie , and he does expect you to accept . beth : thank you . well , of course . wild horses would n't keep me away . of all the luck . tabitha : hmm . why on earth would alistair crane be inviting you to a party ? beth : well , who cares , as long as it gets me in the mansion . tabitha : hmm -- so you can get rid of that rat , huh ? beth : what ? tabitha : hmm ? [ tabitha chuckles ] beth : no -- no . no . oh -- the cranes -- they own this cafe . this 'll just give me a chance to get in there and butter up the landlord . you know . will you excuse me ? tabitha : everything 's falling into place , endora . whether by beth 's hand or another 's , your grandfather alistair crane will be poisoned tonight . mm - hmm . pilar : i do n't want to go to alistair 's party . whatever he 's up to , it ca n't be good for any of us . luis : someone should have killed that bastard a long time ago , everything 's he done to this family and this town . pilar : and he killed antonio . that man is evil . god forgive me , but this world would be a better place with him dead . luis : yeah . do n't worry , sheridan , there 's nothing he can do to stop our wedding now , ok ? sheridan : maybe that 's it . maybe father realizes that he ca n't stop us and this party is to congratulate us . eve : so you really think we should go ? julian : yes , i think we have to . whatever the old man has planned , we need to be there and we may be able to stop it . eve : i never knew what hate was till i met alistair . oh , god . just think about what he 's done to us -- broke us up with lies , stole chad from us , made him grow up in poverty without a family . julian : then he encouraged chad to go after whitney , knowing full well they were half brother and sister . could you imagine the tragedy if chad was the father of the baby , not fox ? anyway , pilar , who 's perhaps the saintliest person i know , told luis that god would forgive him if he killed alistair . eve : what do you expect ? he killed her son . i mean , i 'm a doctor , so i took an oath to do no harm . but after what he 's done to us and whitney and chad , to kill him would be like eradicating some disease . julian : it 's all i can do not to kill him myself . chad : i just got a letter from alistair . i 'm fired from crane industries , and i wo n't inherit a dime from him . eve : what ? julian : wait a minute . we 'll see about that . chad : oh , no , hold on a second . it gets better . `` p.s . -- you 're black and you 're a bastard , and that 's two strikes against you in my book . and i will never let your kind inherit the crane legacy . `` racist pig . eve : damn that man to hell ! julian : he should be put down like some rabid animal . alistair : really , katherine ! you could n't kill me with a gun ! now your weapon of choice is a -- a letter opener ! what 's next , you smother me with a fuzzy teddy bear ?

alistair : after i savor a bit of my drink , i 'll tell you all my secret , although some of you may have your suspicions as to why i required your presence . sheridan : stop teasing us like this , father . what do you want ? alistair : mmm . remy martin louis xiii , bottled in 1914 . ah , yes , one sip of this heavenly elixir is to die for . theresa : i am your mother , and you are my little girl . i 'm never going to let you go , no matter what . sam : will you stay with gwen , or will you choose to be with theresa and your baby ? alistair : i 'll tell you why you 're all here . pilar : i know exactly what you 're about to tell us . | each of the guests invited to alistair 's party has a reason to want the man dead , and each manages to find some alone time before going to the party . at the mansion , alistair takes a drink from his glass before going out to greet his arriving guests , and someone takes the opportunity to pour poison into it while he 's out of the room . the guests start to gather at alistair 's estate one by one , each wondering why he called them all together . all except martin and katherine , both of whom have vowed to stop him anyway they can . once they are all assembled , some uninvited guests crash the party , causing a scene , but they are soon quieted as they all watch alistair start to take a sip from his poisoned glass . | <s>[INST] whitney : oh , god , i do n't know how i 'm going to tell my father i 'm pregnant . fox : look , he may get a little upset , ok ?

fox : well , it 's our baby . we 're pregnant together . whitney : right . t.c . : what ? whitney , you 're pregnant ? liz : t.c . , do n't get crazy now . t.c . : whitney , you 're pregnant by a crane ?

beth : well , who cares , as long as it gets me in the mansion . tabitha : hmm -- so you can get rid of that rat , huh ? beth : what ? tabitha : hmm ? [ tabitha chuckles ] beth : no -- no . no . oh -- the cranes -- they own this cafe . this 'll just give me a chance to get in there and butter up the landlord . you know . will you excuse me ? tabitha : everything 's falling into place , endora . whether by beth 's hand or another 's , your grandfather alistair crane will be poisoned tonight . mm - hmm . pilar : i do n't want to go to alistair 's party . whatever he 's up to , it ca n't be good for any of us . luis : someone should have killed that bastard a long time ago , everything 's he done to this family and this town . pilar : and he killed antonio . that man is evil . god forgive me , but this world would be a better place with him dead . luis : yeah . do n't worry , sheridan , there 's nothing he can do to stop our wedding now , ok ? sheridan : maybe that 's it . maybe father realizes that he ca n't stop us and this party is to congratulate us . eve : so you really think we should go ? julian : yes , i think we have to . whatever the old man has planned , we need to be there and we may be able to stop it . eve : i never knew what hate was till i met alistair . oh , god . just think about what he 's done to us -- broke us up with lies , stole chad from us , made him grow up in poverty without a family . julian : then he encouraged chad to go after whitney , knowing full well they were half brother and sister . could you imagine the tragedy if chad was the father of the baby , not fox ? anyway , pilar , who 's perhaps the saintliest person i know , told luis that god would forgive him if he killed alistair . eve : what do you expect ? he killed her son . i mean , i 'm a doctor , so i took an oath to do no harm . but after what he 's done to us and whitney and chad , to kill him would be like eradicating some disease . julian : it 's all i can do not to kill him myself . chad : i just got a letter from alistair . i 'm fired from crane industries , and i wo n't inherit a dime from him . eve : what ? julian : wait a minute . we 'll see about that . chad : oh , no , hold on a second . it gets better . `` p.s . -- you 're black and you 're a bastard , and that 's two strikes against you in my book . and i will never let your kind inherit the crane legacy . `` racist pig . eve : damn that man to hell ! julian : he should be put down like some rabid animal . alistair : really , katherine ! you could n't kill me with a gun ! now your weapon of choice is a -- a letter opener ! what 's next , you smother me with a fuzzy teddy bear ?

luis : no idea . we should get going , though . sheridan : yeah . pilar : yeah , well -- i think i 'm going to go to the nurse and check on the baby and theresa again . sheridan : great . you know what ?

[ phone rings ] fox : one second . hello ? yes . no . what ? oh , really ? well , then you do me a favor . you tell him that i said this is n't over . do you understand me ? hello ? hello ? oh , you got to be kidding me . whitney : well , wait . what 's wrong ? fox : my grandfather just cut me out of his will . he cut me out of his will , which means when he dies i get nothing . and he could n't tell me in person ? he has somebody call me on a cell phone ? whitney : you got to be kidding me . after how hard you 've worked for him . fox : well , i 'm not kidding . yeah , i thought my grandfather would be the one to reinstate me at crane industries . whitney , i 'm a crane , for god 's sake . i 'm the only legitimate heir . that whole thing is mine . and you know something ? just when i think alistair could n't sink any lower , he does something like this . whitney : well , he 's the devil , fox . i mean , look what he 's done to my family , with all his sick secrets . fox : yeah , well , if he had it his way , you know , you 'd be pregnant with chad 's baby right now . you know , i tell you something , i 'm not going to take this lying down . look -- i know we had plans tonight and -- but i got to run an errand . so i 'm going to do that , and then i 'm going to go to the mansion and get the rest of my stuff . whitney : that 's absolutely cool , because that works for me , too , because i have something that i have to do . fox : really ? whitney : and i 'll meet you back at the mansion , and i 'll help you pack your stuff . fox : yeah , well , that 's perfect . see you later . whitney : ok . fox : i 've had it , grandfather . this whole thing ends tonight . whitney : i 'm pregnant with my half brother 's baby because of that evil old man . yeah , alistair crane is going to have to pay . alistair : oh , just a little lower on the left there . fine . tina : mr. crane , out of your whole collection , why did you choose that painting for your living room ? it 's creepy . alistair : you 'll see , my dear . i commissioned that after my wife died . that 's why the veil covers the mother 's face -- to symbolize her separation from her child . but come . let me introduce you to the pleasures of scottish salmon , direct from the queen 's estate at balmorals . [ alistair laughs ] tabitha : oh , quick , my little treasure , turn on the bowl , and then beam it to the boob tube , hmm ? hmm . ooh ! it 's prime time in harmony ! mm - hmm . we really should get a remote for this thing . oh , look , endora . a murderous lot if ever i 've seen one . oh , here comes the rest of the pack . oh , my darling . i just realized -- this is your very first murder . remind me to write it all down in your baby book . now , endora , listen carefully . this is how the family business works . we sow a little pain , a little heartache , and a lot of guilt . and then one fine day our evil seeds burst into flower . just look . one of these solid citizens is about to pay your grandfather back for his deliciously evil ways . oh . the mystery begins . what a surprise for alistair . add a little of what 's in that bottle to alistair 's favorite cocktail , and what do we have ? hmm ? a recipe for murder . alistair : thank you , my dear .

[ mrs. wallace guffaws ] mrs. wallace : ok , yeah , right , i know there 's a bright side to this . she could get the electric chair . but , hey -- hey , little marty could be with his real family , you know , with his real mommy , sheridan . oh , and then all of beth 's secrets and lies are buried , buried forever . and then luis and sheridan and marty get to be a family again . oh , get over yourself there , precious . i know you got the hots for luis . who does n't , honey ? just get over it , ok ? tabitha : oh . even that old woman hopes alistair crane will die . oh , darling , wait until the world finds out who poisoned alistair crane . quickly , now , quickly , endora , switch channels . switch channels for me . alistair : i 'm thrilled that you all decided to accept my invitation . julian : get on with it . alistair : wo n't you ever learn patience , julian ? katherine : oh , god , martin , he 's going to do it . he 's going to tell everyone i 'm his wife , that i 'm sheridan 's mother , and it 's going to destroy luis and sheridan 's relationship . alistair : so , let me tell you why i 've asked you all here . t.c . : get your damn hands off of me . crane , you have ruined my life . man : we found these people trespassing , sir . should i call the police ? luis : t.c . , just calm down . what the hell are you doing ? calm down . liz : everyone , everyone , please , just excuse him . he 's just been drinking . alistair : so i see . t.c . : damn you , you bastard . you played us all like puppets . you wrecked our lives . luis : t.c . , you 're not helping . chad : what 's all the noise ? whitney : daddy ? daddy , what did you do ? liz : t.c . , please , just calm down ! t.c . : i want to see you dead ! luis : all right , t.c . , just stop it , all right ? they 're going to arrest you . why do n't you just sit down ? come on . come on . alistair : let him go . he 's no threat to me . liz : thank you . alistair : i do n't recall inviting the hoi polloi . fox : yeah , i did n't know i needed an invitation to come to my own home . chad : me , either . i 'm your grandson , remember ? alistair : well , what i have to say affects you all , so you might as well stay . as a matter of fact , why does n't everyone join me for a drink ? no one ? oh , please , now , do n't make me drink alone . luis : no one wants to drink with you . just cut to the chase . why are we all here ? alistair : after i savor a bit of my drink , i 'll tell you all my secret , although some of you may have your suspicions as to why i required your presence . sheridan : stop teasing us like this , father . what do you want ? alistair : mmm . remy martin louis xiii , bottled in 1914 . ah , yes , one sip of this heavenly elixir is to die for . theresa : i am your mother , and you are my little girl . i 'm never going to let you go , no matter what . sam : will you stay with gwen , or will you choose to be with theresa and your baby ? alistair : i 'll tell you why you 're all here . pilar : i know exactly what you 're about to tell us .Summarize.[/INST]each of the guests invited to alistair 's party has a reason to want the man dead , and each manages to find some alone time before going to the party . at the mansion , alistair takes a drink from his glass before going out to greet his arriving guests , and someone takes the opportunity to pour poison into it while he 's out of the room . the guests start to gather at alistair 's estate one by one , each wondering why he called them all together . all except martin and katherine , both of whom have vowed to stop him anyway they can . once they are all assembled , some uninvited guests crash the party , causing a scene , but they are soon quieted as they all watch alistair start to take a sip from his poisoned glass .</s> | 15,872 |
patrick : eat your breakfast . emma : i ca n't , daddy . i 'm in the zone . patrick : well , the zone can wait . come on , you got to ea it 's the most important meal of the day . emma : why ? patrick : because it 's good for you . emma : if you eat cereal for lunch , does that make it as important as breakfast ? patrick : that 's not really how it works . emma : what about when mommy would make us breakfast for dinner ? patrick : you know -- look who 's here . elizabeth : hi ! good morning . good morning . good morning . [ smooches ] is this your breakfast ? why have n't you touched it ? patrick : yeah . emma : i was in the zone . patrick : come on . you need to fuel up from that zone . let 's go . elizabeth : hello . patrick : hi . how are you ? elizabeth : it 's nice to see you outside of work . patrick : yeah , it 's been a while . how you been ? elizabeth : hmm , i 've been better . did you see this ? olivia : mr. lavery , good morning . duke : ah , good morning to you , too , miss falconeri . olivia : the usual table for two ? duke : no , i 'll be on my own this morning , unfortunately . anna 's has to leave the country unexpectedly . olivia : oh . nothing wrong , i hope . i mean , no offense , but problems sort of have a way of following the two of you . duke : yes , they do . olivia : well , i 'll just keep her in my prayers , just in case . duke : thank you very much . but there 's no need . she 's actually gone for very good reasons . robert 's finally come out of his coma . olivia : [ gasps ] robert : anna , listen . i hope you get this message before your meeting with faison . be careful . and go armed . do not ask this guy any leading questions about robin 'cause he 's gon na clam up on you . okay ? you 're gon na have to do a bit of fancy footwork around this cagey bastard . bye . [ door opens ] robin : if you want your cure , you 're gon na have to wait . jerry : ooh , sounds like someone is a little cranky today . fortunately , i have just the thing . robin : what ? a one - way ticket to my family ? jerry : no , a jet fueled up and waiting . [ baby fussing ] jerry : all you have to do is meet the terms of our agreement . robin : cure you of your polonium poisoning . i know . jerry : in the meantime , i brought you sustenance and , of course , your medication . robin : hope you 're not expecting a tip . jerry : oh , robin . consider yourself lucky you 're getting anything at all after that stunt you pulled yesterday . it was foolish , albeit brave , to clock obrecht and make a run for it . robin : well , it 's not my fault that she 's susceptible to flattery . jerry : well , what can you say ? she 's a mad scientist . all they do is crave validation . robin : so where did the doctor and her bruised ego go ? jerry : oh , that is none of your concern . robin : well , i 'm not concerned . i 'm just curious . the only thing i could get out of her was that she was going to see someone that she loves as much as i love patrick . anna : commissioner anna devane . i 'm here to see cesar faison . it 's a matter of life and death . elizabeth : unh - unh . not since his arraignment . patrick : you went ? elizabeth : only because michael begged me to . patrick : how you doing with all this ? elizabeth : i do n't know . i ca n't even bring myself to go see him in jail . and if i 'm completely honest , i ... i miss him . you know , he used to make me laugh all the time . he was really good with my boys , and it just felt good to have him around . and now that he 's not ... my life feels a little less . patrick : i 'm sorry that i have n't been there for you through this . elizabeth : you 're busy . patrick : no , you 're a dear friend of ours , and i should have made more time , especially because you were so wonderful for both of us after robin died . emma : auntie elizabeth ? elizabeth : mm - hmm ? emma : did daddy tell you what today is ? it 's mommy 's birthday . robin : it just does n't make any sense . why would obrecht leave her grandson here ? jerry : well , she clearly has faith in your abilities as a nurturer . robin : but where could she possibly go that she could n't bring him with her ? jerry : why would you question the motives of a sociopathically disturbed woman ? you wo n't find answers that make sense to you . robin : at least i have this little guy to keep me company . jerry : now , do n't get side - tracked . eat , take your meds , and finish formulating the cure , and you can go back to the family you hold so dear . all right ? ta - da . robin : what 's this ? jerry : it 's your birthday , is n't it ? olivia : day in and day out with no change . you -- you must have thought he was never gon na come back . duke : it 's been a pretty difficult time , especially for anna . you know what i mean ? i have n't actually spoken to her . i 've got a couple of messages from her . but i 'd imagine she 's spending a lot of time with robert . olivia : where 'd you go just now ? duke : nowhere . olivia : okay , i do n't know what 's going on , but it 's obvious there 's something that you 're not entirely happy about . duke : oh , do n't misunderstand me . i 'm very relieved that robert 's doing better . it 's just -- olivia : so why the long face ? duke : i just hope he does n't decide that he wants anna back . robert : i did n't see you standing there . mac : i was being quiet in case you were sleeping . robert : after 12 months , i think i 've had enough . mac : i bet . so who were you talking to ? robert : oh , i was leaving a message for anna . um ... she likes me to check in . but most times she 's too busy to take my call . mac : yeah , what 's going on with her ? she left a message with me last night saying she had to leave . did n't say where , when she was coming back . i mean , just to look after you and check out the transport museum if we had time . robert : hey , that 's anna . mac : maybe . but , robert , we did n't come all this way to see local attractions . we came to see you . robert : of which there are plenty , but as soon as i -- mac : robert we 're here one day , and anna 's already taken off . what happened ? where did anna have to all of a sudden ? one of your former handlers at wsb arranged for your clearance . anna : thank you . the prisoner is a dangerous criminal . i 'd feel safer if i was armed . yes , the clearance for your sidearm has been granted . right this way . bringing in the prisoner . that anna had to leave right after you re - entered the land of the living ? anna : we do n't know about robin . do n't tell mac or patrick or emma -- no one . you understand ? robert : what else ? chasing the bad guys . mac : she 's got a lead on obrecht ? robert : we 're hoping . mac : i guess anna has n't told you about that psycho 's latest stunt . robert : what 's dr. death done this time ? mac : she clocked her daughter and kidnapped her newborn grandson . robert : any leads ? mac : no . obrecht 's trail went cold the minute she boarded the private plane . anna thinks she 's holed up in europe somewhere but , you know , on the other hand , she might have refueled while she was here , and she 'd be on the other side of the planet by now . robert : dragging a baby . poor kid . mac : god only knows what she wants him for . i just hope she has a heart under that ruthless exterior . but i doubt it . you know , more likely she 's gon na use that child as some kind of lab rat . robert : well , here 's hoping there 's an angel out there looking out for the little guy . robin : you say that it 's my birthday , but i honestly have no idea if what you 're saying is true . it could be christmas or a tuesday . i do n't know . jerry : no , really , on this day in history , you were born not far from here across the ionian sea in italy . you were called robin soltini , an unlikely but necessary name so that no one would know that you were the daughter of a hunted wsb double agent . you lived with a woman who you thought was your grandmother . you grew up thinking that your own mother was merely a family friend . your father did n't even know you existed until much later . robin : and if i ever need a biographer , you 'll be my first phone call . but i do n't believe for a second that you give a damn about me . so why are we celebrating my birthday ? what 's in it for you ? elizabeth : of course i know it 's your mommy 's birthday . it 's the first thing i thought about when i woke up this morning . emma : me and daddy , too . i 'm making a card for mommy . and i 'm using the pencils you gave me to make it special and pretty . elizabeth : can i see it ? oh , wow . that is an amazing angel . emma : that 's mommy . elizabeth : i can tell . it looks just like her . emma : and that 's daddy , and that 's me . elizabeth : oh . emma : and mommy can see us because she 's up in heaven . we ca n't see her . i wish we could , but ... we ca n't . read the inside . elizabeth : okay . `` happy birthday , mommy . daddy and i miss you every day . `` olivia : what 's the matter with you ? ! thinking anna 's gon na get back together with robert . duke : they have a complicated history . olivia : so what ? ! they had 20-some - odd years to get back together while you were gone , but did they ? duke : they have a bond -- olivia : no ! no , they did n't . why not ? because anna is in love with you . i 've seen the way she looks at you when she does n't know you 're looking . it 's like her heart is in her eyes . duke : thank you . that 's exactly what i needed to hear today . thank you . olivia : of course , that robert scorpio is pretty -- he 's pretty smoking hot . you know , he 's got that great smile and that sharp style . i mean , the guy is a spy . duke : okay . he 's got a glamorous job . he 's got style . he 's got a great dentist . what of it ? olivia : he 's got the accent , too . it 's like it reaches into my so . duke : i have got an accent , too . olivia : yes , you do , and it 's very adorable . it really is . it 's just not the same . duke : i did n't realize that you knew robbie quite so well . olivia : well , i do n't . not really . duke : but enough . olivia : okay , you caught me . the last time he was in town , i was kind of nursing a gigantic crush on him . when he was investigating you , only you were n't you . you were cesar faison . [ door closes ] faison : anna ... anna , my anna . you came . i 've dreamed of this day . never believed it would happen . but you 're truly here . anna : yes , i 'm here . but not to reminisce . faison : i 'm ready to discuss whatever you like as long as you like . anna : this has to be quick . we do n't have much time . i need to ask you something of great importance . who was wandering around port charles with my face , trying to hijack my life , using my memories . olivia : i honestly do n't know how you survived that . i think i would have lost my marbles . duke : well , if it had n't been for robert , who figured out that the duke lavery who was trying to worm his way into anna 's life actually was faison , then , well , as soon as i see robert and am able to talk to him , i 'm going to ask him how the deuce he caught on . olivia : or i could just tell you . duke : why ? were you there when he figured it out ? olivia : well , i do n't like to toot my own horn , but it was sort of because of me . mac : well , the doctors say you 're doing great , better than expected . i mean , you 're remembering things as far back as the first world war . robert : actually , the crusades . mac : seriously , except for blanking about obrecht , you 're sharp as ever . robert : and do n't you forget it . mac : i 'm sure you know today 's robin 's birthday . robert : of course i know . i do n't forget stuff like that . all of her birthdays ... the ones i did n't attend , all the important dates . hell , i missed her funeral even though -- mac : even though what ? anna : listen , i have to explain something to you . faison : before you say anything more , i must apologize . you know i love you , anna . i 'm so sorry . deceiving you the way i did , masquerading ... as lavery ... anna : i do n't want to relive what you put me through . faison : no , but i was desperate to get near you . i thought i could trick you into loving me . we could have been so happy together , anna . instead , when my little plan went awry , you were hurt , angry , repulsed , and i do n't blame you . can you forgive me ? anna : maybe ... i 'll be able to some day . but that all depends on how you respond to what i have to tell you . faison : well , tell me . you know i 'll do anything to make it up to you . so what is it ? what is it ? tell me . anna : it 's about ... robin . jerry : you see , robin , this little birthday party was like a wake - up call . the sooner you return to work , the sooner you 're gon na see patrick , and from then on , you can celebrate as many birthdays as you want with him . emma : daddy , can we put the card i made into the special memory box for mommy ? elizabeth : you have a special box for memories of mommy ? emma : we do . it 's where daddy keeps mommy 's wedding ring , and he put his in there with it . patrick : hey , remember tj wanted to see your card when you 're done ? why do n't you go show him ? emma : okay . elizabeth : here . emma : tj ! elizabeth : [ chuckles ] so you took your wedding band off . patrick : i did . elizabeth : i wondered when that was gon na happen . i know it was a big decision for you . patrick : yeah . yeah , it was . [ clears throat ] it was time . sabrina has been amazing the last couple months with britt and the baby , and it was n't fair to her , and i wanted to let her know that i 'm ... ready to move on . elizabeth : i heard sabrina 's ex came looking for her . patrick : yeah . elizabeth : come on . it 's the hospital . word gets around . patrick : it had nothing to do with this ... mostly . elizabeth : well , tell me . patrick : [ scoffs ] yes , her ex - boyfriend carlos , who is a -- elizabeth : hottie ? patrick : really ? elizabeth : what ? i told you . word gets around . patrick : yeah , i was gon na say `` jerk . `` did that word get around ? elizabeth : oh . patrick : coincidentally , he mentioned my ring , and it brought the subject to the forefront . elizabeth : mm - hmm . and presumably to sabrina 's attention . patrick : i took the ring off because i love sabrina and i want to have a future with her . and that 's the only reason . elizabeth : how does it feel ? patrick : funny . i thought that it would ... you know , when i took the ring off and put it away , i thought that it would -- i do n't know -- be -- be different , that it would ... help me ... let go of robin . elizabeth : but it does n't . patrick : honestly , i feel like my connection with robin is stronger now than it ever was . jerry : you 've already spent two birthdays without patrick and emma . how many more do you want to spend without them ? robin : take a wild guess . jerry : good . now , we both know that if i die on this island , so do you . robin : yes , i remember every single one of your death threats very clearly . jerry : oh , `` threat `` is such an ugly word . worst - case scenario , i die , you die . best - case scenario , i live , you go free . that 's a pleasant scenario , do n't you think ? robin : no question . jerry : good ! now get back to work . but not after you did your birthday wish . i ca n't imagine what it will be . [ laughs ] [ door closes ] patrick : robin 's been gone the whole time , and i still ca n't bring myself to believe that she 's not coming back . elizabeth : [ clears throat ] patrick -- emma : daddy , look what tj gave me . so we can celebrate mommy 's birthday . you tell me as if i do n't robin : what is it ? patrick : open it and see . robin : two first - class tickets to tokyo ? patrick : that 's right . man , we 're going to tokyo . it does n't stop there . robin : wait , wait , wait . what if i had picked paris or something ? or -- no way . no , you did n't . patrick : and paris . robin : i mean , when are we gon na find time to take three trips ? patrick : it might take us the rest of our lives to do these trips , but we 're gon na do them . robin : i love you . patrick : i love you , too . robin : being here , i mean , you are the best present i could ever have . patrick : happy birthday . emma : i made mommy 's wish for her . you want to know what she wished for ? patrick : yes . emma : mommy wished that she could come home to us . robert : i could n't stick around for my daughter 's funeral . i mean , i just could n't stick around to say goodbye to my little girl . mac : luke read your letter . i think we all understood , you know . i do n't think any of us expected you to show up after seeing -- robert : the charred remains . mac : i 'm sorry . i should n't have brought it up . okay , we do n't have to do this . robert : listen , if i ca n't talk to you about this , who can i talk to ? what that fire and explosion left behind was unrecognizable . i could n't believe that it was robin . but i could n't deny it , either . mac : no father should ever have to see that , robert . robert : i could have been stronger . stronger for ... emma , for patrick , for you , for anna . well ... especially for anna . it bothers me that that was the last chance i had to say goodbye to my little girl . mac : maybe it was n't . olivia : you know how i have these psychic visions sometimes ? okay , there was this one day that `` duke `` walked into the haunted star , only it was n't duke . i did n't see duke like everyone else did . i saw this crazy , scraggly haired , craggy man . duke : you had a vision of faison . olivia : yes ! exactly ! only i did n't know it was faison at the time . all i knew was it sent chills down my spine , you know , like i was looking in the face of everything evil . so needless to say , i was pretty freaked out . so i went and i told lulu . lulu told robbie . robbie came and asked me a whole bunch of questions . and then he hooked me up with elizabeth webber , who it turns out is a really excellent artist . so she drew the face while i described it . duke : like a police sketch . olivia : yes ! exactly ! and the face that i described was faison . and then after that , robbie was off and running . duke : well , i do n't know what to say except i 'm deeply grateful to you . olivia : well , i did n't really do anything . all i did was have a crazy vision . robbie was the one who took the information and ran with it . duke : well , he could n't have done it without your help . olivia : listen , i 'm just grateful that this faison guy is behind bars , and thank god i 'm not gon na be having anymore visions of him . faison : well , i 'm sure robin 's never far from your mind . especially on a beautiful day like today . it 's her birthday . anna : i 'm surprised you know that . faison : how could i not ? the daughter of the woman i love above all . how you must miss her . she must feel so far away . as you have felt to me . anna : to not see her or touch her ... to come to terms with the fact that i 'm never going to be with her again ... faison : anna , please listen to what i have to say . anna : what is it ? faison : robin is alive . daddy , i left it on the counter . patrick : you better go get it . emma : okay , but it better not have any breakfast gunk on it . tj ! elizabeth : you okay ? patrick : just thinking of the last birthday that robin and i spent together of hers . i rented a limo , and i went and picked her up at work and stole her away , which was n't easy , because you know the way she was with work , always so busy . i got her a few airline tickets -- one to tokyo , rio -- elizabeth : and paris . i know . she told me . she 'd never been to tokyo or rio , but for all the years she lived in paris , she just dreamed of sharing it with someone . she wanted to go back but only with you . patrick : i told her that we had our whole lives together to do that . i told her that we had time to make our dreams come true . but the truth is we did n't have the time . elizabeth : patrick you could n't have known that , neither of you . patrick : no , but why did n't i just whisk her away ? why did n't i just take her away right then and there ? we could have changed our lives . she would n't have been in the lab . elizabeth : listen to me . you need to forget about the trips you did n't take and remember the ones you did . you need to think about all the good times , remember how she used to smile and laugh and tell you that she loves you . that needs to stick in your head and your heart . she loved you so much . you can never regret that . robin : i 'm gon na finish jerry 's cure . and i 'm getting out of this godforsaken hellhole . i 'm going home , and i 'm doing it today . mac : we recorded her funeral . robert : you did ? mac : amfar requested it for a tribute they were doing for robin . look , i was n't sure it was the right thing to do at the time . but , robert , the outpouring of love ... was unbelievable . i do n't know if this is something you want to -- robert : play it . mac : you 're sure ? robert : it 's my daughter 's funeral . i want to see some of that ... that ... love that i missed . play it . mac : i was no one 's idea of father material when i took on the responsibility of raising robin . i promised to take care of her . but it was clear from the beginning that she was also taking care of me . robert : [ sighs ] mac : but i had a lot to learn about my niece ... about robin 's capacity for hope and love . and when robin was diagnosed with h.i.v . , i was awed by her courage . robin faced her diagnosis like she faced everything that life threw at her -- with strength and dignity . i 'm gon na tell you something that i always used to say to robin . `` we 're family . we 're scorpios . and there 's nothing we ca n't get through together . `` are you sure you 're okay with this ? robert : yeah . elizabeth : we all know how stubborn she could be . but she was stubborn for a reason . she fought hard for what she believed in , and she fought hard for the people she loved . a few months ago when she thought she might not be here for emma ... she asked if i would step in for her . well , i knew then what i know now ... and that 's robin 's irreplaceable . robert : you are so right about that . anna : 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 . 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 ... 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 . patrick : 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 . 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 . she made me feel that if you had love , anything was possible . robert : you all right ? mac : i 'm sorry . uh ... [ chuckles ] i wanted to do this for you . i did n't realize how hard it would be . i miss her so much . robert : there 's something i got to tell you . duke : i really should try to call anna . today 's gon na be a difficult day for her . well , it 's her daughter robin 's birthday . olivia : oh . oh , i had n't realized . i 'm sorry . that 's so sad . duke : did you know robin ? olivia : not very well . but i knew how much sonny loved her . i mean , everybody did . duke : i had n't seen her since she was a child . she was a great champion of mine . but her mother was reluctant to give me a chance . as far as stepdaughters go , she was the best stepdaughter in the world . we used to do a lot of things together . we cooked together . i taught her to play the bagpipes . olivia : [ laughs ] i bet the neighbors loved that . duke : no . she did . and that 's all that mattered . i treasure those memories . olivia : well , you obviously meant a great deal to her . duke : oh , she meant a great deal to me , too . anna : robin is alive ? ! that 's impossible ! faison : no , it 's not . anna : [ gasps ] faison : i kept her alive ... for you , anna . anna : how did you do that ? how did you keep her alive and hidden from me for all this time when you 've been in prison ? how did you do that ? faison : i have my collaborators outside , of course . anna : who ? ! i want names . who ? faison : jerry jacks ... the late dr. ewan keenan . and the lion 's share of help came from one of my most trusted associates ... dr. liesl obrecht . anna : oh , yes , i 'm familiar with dr. obrecht . she is devoted to you . loyal to a fault . it seems that she would rather die an to break your confidence . faison : yeah , that 's one of her admirable qualities . yes . anna : do you know she tried to kill someone in order to gain your affection ? faison : well , she 's in love with me ! it 's not that i want to make you jealous . she always has been . anna : you must have some attachment to her , given everything she 's done for you . faison : i have never returned her feelings , and i never will . anna : never ? faison : anna ... you 're the only woman in my life . i love you . only you . you feel so close to robin right now , other than the fact that it is her birthday , i think you realize it 's time to let her go . patrick : you 're probably right . when i took my ring off , it was like my whole body knew that something was missing . because i do n't want to let her go . elizabeth : taking the ring off means you 're saying goodbye . that 's what you 're doing . you 're saying goodbye . patrick : [ scoffs ] elizabeth : [ sighs ] i know . uh , i got to go . call me if you need anything , okay ? patrick : thank you . elizabeth : love you . patrick : love you , too . emma : found mommy 's card . patrick : you did ? good . okay . got to get going . got to get you to school . emma : okay , but will you keep my card for me ? until we put it in the memory box together later . patrick : promise . come on . emma : thank you . patrick : you 're welcome . let 's go .

[ smooches ] is this your breakfast ? why have n't you touched it ? patrick : yeah . emma : i was in the zone . patrick : come on . you need to fuel up from that zone . let 's go . elizabeth : hello . patrick : hi . how are you ? elizabeth : it 's nice to see you outside of work . patrick : yeah , it 's been a while . how you been ? elizabeth : hmm , i 've been better . did you see this ? olivia : mr. lavery , good morning . duke : ah , good morning to you , too , miss falconeri . olivia : the usual table for two ? duke : no , i 'll be on my own this morning , unfortunately . anna 's has to leave the country unexpectedly . olivia : oh . nothing wrong , i hope . i mean , no offense , but problems sort of have a way of following the two of you . duke : yes , they do . olivia : well , i 'll just keep her in my prayers , just in case . duke : thank you very much . but there 's no need . she 's actually gone for very good reasons . robert 's finally come out of his coma . olivia : [ gasps ] robert : anna , listen . i hope you get this message before your meeting with faison . be careful . and go armed . do not ask this guy any leading questions about robin 'cause he 's gon na clam up on you . okay ? you 're gon na have to do a bit of fancy footwork around this cagey bastard . bye . [ door opens ] robin : if you want your cure , you 're gon na have to wait . jerry : ooh , sounds like someone is a little cranky today . fortunately , i have just the thing . robin : what ? a one - way ticket to my family ? jerry : no , a jet fueled up and waiting . [ baby fussing ] jerry : all you have to do is meet the terms of our agreement . robin : cure you of your polonium poisoning . i know . jerry : in the meantime , i brought you sustenance and , of course , your medication . robin : hope you 're not expecting a tip . jerry : oh , robin . consider yourself lucky you 're getting anything at all after that stunt you pulled yesterday . it was foolish , albeit brave , to clock obrecht and make a run for it . robin : well , it 's not my fault that she 's susceptible to flattery . jerry : well , what can you say ? she 's a mad scientist . all they do is crave validation . robin : so where did the doctor and her bruised ego go ? jerry : oh , that is none of your concern . robin : well , i 'm not concerned . i 'm just curious . the only thing i could get out of her was that she was going to see someone that she loves as much as i love patrick . anna : commissioner anna devane . i 'm here to see cesar faison . it 's a matter of life and death . elizabeth : unh - unh . not since his arraignment . patrick : you went ? elizabeth : only because michael begged me to . patrick : how you doing with all this ? elizabeth : i do n't know . i ca n't even bring myself to go see him in jail . and if i 'm completely honest , i ... i miss him . you know , he used to make me laugh all the time . he was really good with my boys , and it just felt good to have him around . and now that he 's not ... my life feels a little less . patrick : i 'm sorry that i have n't been there for you through this . elizabeth : you 're busy . patrick : no , you 're a dear friend of ours , and i should have made more time , especially because you were so wonderful for both of us after robin died . emma : auntie elizabeth ? elizabeth : mm - hmm ? emma : did daddy tell you what today is ? it 's mommy 's birthday . robin : it just does n't make any sense . why would obrecht leave her grandson here ? jerry : well , she clearly has faith in your abilities as a nurturer . robin : but where could she possibly go that she could n't bring him with her ? jerry : why would you question the motives of a sociopathically disturbed woman ? you wo n't find answers that make sense to you . robin : at least i have this little guy to keep me company . jerry : now , do n't get side - tracked . eat , take your meds , and finish formulating the cure , and you can go back to the family you hold so dear . all right ? ta - da . robin : what 's this ? jerry : it 's your birthday , is n't it ? olivia : day in and day out with no change . you -- you must have thought he was never gon na come back . duke : it 's been a pretty difficult time , especially for anna . you know what i mean ? i have n't actually spoken to her . i 've got a couple of messages from her . but i 'd imagine she 's spending a lot of time with robert . olivia : where 'd you go just now ? duke : nowhere . olivia : okay , i do n't know what 's going on , but it 's obvious there 's something that you 're not entirely happy about . duke : oh , do n't misunderstand me . i 'm very relieved that robert 's doing better . it 's just -- olivia : so why the long face ? duke : i just hope he does n't decide that he wants anna back . robert : i did n't see you standing there . mac : i was being quiet in case you were sleeping . robert : after 12 months , i think i 've had enough . mac : i bet . so who were you talking to ? robert : oh , i was leaving a message for anna . um ... she likes me to check in . but most times she 's too busy to take my call . mac : yeah , what 's going on with her ? she left a message with me last night saying she had to leave . did n't say where , when she was coming back . i mean , just to look after you and check out the transport museum if we had time . robert : hey , that 's anna . mac : maybe . but , robert , we did n't come all this way to see local attractions . we came to see you . robert : of which there are plenty , but as soon as i -- mac : robert we 're here one day , and anna 's already taken off . what happened ? where did anna have to all of a sudden ? one of your former handlers at wsb arranged for your clearance . anna : thank you . the prisoner is a dangerous criminal . i 'd feel safer if i was armed . yes , the clearance for your sidearm has been granted . right this way . bringing in the prisoner . that anna had to leave right after you re - entered the land of the living ? anna : we do n't know about robin . do n't tell mac or patrick or emma -- no one . you understand ? robert : what else ? chasing the bad guys . mac : she 's got a lead on obrecht ? robert : we 're hoping . mac : i guess anna has n't told you about that psycho 's latest stunt . robert : what 's dr. death done this time ? mac : she clocked her daughter and kidnapped her newborn grandson . robert : any leads ? mac : no . obrecht 's trail went cold the minute she boarded the private plane . anna thinks she 's holed up in europe somewhere but , you know , on the other hand , she might have refueled while she was here , and she 'd be on the other side of the planet by now . robert : dragging a baby . poor kid . mac : god only knows what she wants him for . i just hope she has a heart under that ruthless exterior . but i doubt it . you know , more likely she 's gon na use that child as some kind of lab rat . robert : well , here 's hoping there 's an angel out there looking out for the little guy . robin : you say that it 's my birthday , but i honestly have no idea if what you 're saying is true . it could be christmas or a tuesday . i do n't know . jerry : no , really , on this day in history , you were born not far from here across the ionian sea in italy . you were called robin soltini , an unlikely but necessary name so that no one would know that you were the daughter of a hunted wsb double agent . you lived with a woman who you thought was your grandmother . you grew up thinking that your own mother was merely a family friend . your father did n't even know you existed until much later . robin : and if i ever need a biographer , you 'll be my first phone call . but i do n't believe for a second that you give a damn about me . so why are we celebrating my birthday ? what 's in it for you ? elizabeth : of course i know it 's your mommy 's birthday . it 's the first thing i thought about when i woke up this morning . emma : me and daddy , too . i 'm making a card for mommy . and i 'm using the pencils you gave me to make it special and pretty . elizabeth : can i see it ? oh , wow . that is an amazing angel . emma : that 's mommy . elizabeth : i can tell . it looks just like her . emma : and that 's daddy , and that 's me . elizabeth : oh . emma : and mommy can see us because she 's up in heaven . we ca n't see her . i wish we could , but ... we ca n't . read the inside . elizabeth : okay . `` happy birthday , mommy . daddy and i miss you every day . `` olivia : what 's the matter with you ? ! thinking anna 's gon na get back together with robert . duke : they have a complicated history . olivia : so what ? ! they had 20-some - odd years to get back together while you were gone , but did they ? duke : they have a bond -- olivia : no ! no , they did n't . why not ? because anna is in love with you . i 've seen the way she looks at you when she does n't know you 're looking . it 's like her heart is in her eyes . duke : thank you . that 's exactly what i needed to hear today . thank you . olivia : of course , that robert scorpio is pretty -- he 's pretty smoking hot . you know , he 's got that great smile and that sharp style . i mean , the guy is a spy . duke : okay . he 's got a glamorous job . he 's got style . he 's got a great dentist . what of it ? olivia : he 's got the accent , too . it 's like it reaches into my so . duke : i have got an accent , too . olivia : yes , you do , and it 's very adorable . it really is . it 's just not the same . duke : i did n't realize that you knew robbie quite so well . olivia : well , i do n't . not really . duke : but enough . olivia : okay , you caught me . the last time he was in town , i was kind of nursing a gigantic crush on him . when he was investigating you , only you were n't you . you were cesar faison . [ door closes ] faison : anna ... anna , my anna . you came . i 've dreamed of this day . never believed it would happen . but you 're truly here . anna : yes , i 'm here . but not to reminisce . faison : i 'm ready to discuss whatever you like as long as you like . anna : this has to be quick . we do n't have much time . i need to ask you something of great importance . who was wandering around port charles with my face , trying to hijack my life , using my memories . olivia : i honestly do n't know how you survived that . i think i would have lost my marbles . duke : well , if it had n't been for robert , who figured out that the duke lavery who was trying to worm his way into anna 's life actually was faison , then , well , as soon as i see robert and am able to talk to him , i 'm going to ask him how the deuce he caught on . olivia : or i could just tell you . duke : why ? were you there when he figured it out ? olivia : well , i do n't like to toot my own horn , but it was sort of because of me . mac : well , the doctors say you 're doing great , better than expected . i mean , you 're remembering things as far back as the first world war . robert : actually , the crusades . mac : seriously , except for blanking about obrecht , you 're sharp as ever . robert : and do n't you forget it . mac : i 'm sure you know today 's robin 's birthday . robert : of course i know . i do n't forget stuff like that . all of her birthdays ... the ones i did n't attend , all the important dates . hell , i missed her funeral even though -- mac : even though what ? anna : listen , i have to explain something to you . faison : before you say anything more , i must apologize . you know i love you , anna . i 'm so sorry . deceiving you the way i did , masquerading ... as lavery ... anna : i do n't want to relive what you put me through . faison : no , but i was desperate to get near you . i thought i could trick you into loving me . we could have been so happy together , anna . instead , when my little plan went awry , you were hurt , angry , repulsed , and i do n't blame you . can you forgive me ? anna : maybe ... i 'll be able to some day . but that all depends on how you respond to what i have to tell you . faison : well , tell me . you know i 'll do anything to make it up to you . so what is it ? what is it ? tell me . anna : it 's about ... robin . jerry : you see , robin , this little birthday party was like a wake - up call . the sooner you return to work , the sooner you 're gon na see patrick , and from then on , you can celebrate as many birthdays as you want with him . emma : daddy , can we put the card i made into the special memory box for mommy ? elizabeth : you have a special box for memories of mommy ? emma : we do . it 's where daddy keeps mommy 's wedding ring , and he put his in there with it . patrick : hey , remember tj wanted to see your card when you 're done ? why do n't you go show him ? emma : okay . elizabeth : here . emma : tj ! elizabeth : [ chuckles ] so you took your wedding band off . patrick : i did . elizabeth : i wondered when that was gon na happen . i know it was a big decision for you . patrick : yeah . yeah , it was . [ clears throat ] it was time . sabrina has been amazing the last couple months with britt and the baby , and it was n't fair to her , and i wanted to let her know that i 'm ... ready to move on . elizabeth : i heard sabrina 's ex came looking for her . patrick : yeah . elizabeth : come on . it 's the hospital . word gets around . patrick : it had nothing to do with this ... mostly . elizabeth : well , tell me . patrick : [ scoffs ] yes , her ex - boyfriend carlos , who is a -- elizabeth : hottie ? patrick : really ? elizabeth : what ? i told you . word gets around . patrick : yeah , i was gon na say `` jerk . `` did that word get around ? elizabeth : oh . patrick : coincidentally , he mentioned my ring , and it brought the subject to the forefront . elizabeth : mm - hmm . and presumably to sabrina 's attention . patrick : i took the ring off because i love sabrina and i want to have a future with her . and that 's the only reason . elizabeth : how does it feel ? patrick : funny . i thought that it would ... you know , when i took the ring off and put it away , i thought that it would -- i do n't know -- be -- be different , that it would ... help me ... let go of robin . elizabeth : but it does n't . patrick : honestly , i feel like my connection with robin is stronger now than it ever was . jerry : you 've already spent two birthdays without patrick and emma . how many more do you want to spend without them ? robin : take a wild guess . jerry : good . now , we both know that if i die on this island , so do you . robin : yes , i remember every single one of your death threats very clearly . jerry : oh , `` threat `` is such an ugly word . worst - case scenario , i die , you die . best - case scenario , i live , you go free . that 's a pleasant scenario , do n't you think ? robin : no question . jerry : good ! now get back to work . but not after you did your birthday wish . i ca n't imagine what it will be .

okay , there was this one day that `` duke `` walked into the haunted star , only it was n't duke . i did n't see duke like everyone else did . i saw this crazy , scraggly haired , craggy man . duke : you had a vision of faison . olivia : yes ! exactly ! only i did n't know it was faison at the time . all i knew was it sent chills down my spine , you know , like i was looking in the face of everything evil . so needless to say , i was pretty freaked out . so i went and i told lulu . lulu told robbie . robbie came and asked me a whole bunch of questions . and then he hooked me up with elizabeth webber , who it turns out is a really excellent artist . so she drew the face while i described it . duke : like a police sketch . olivia : yes ! exactly ! and the face that i described was faison . and then after that , robbie was off and running . duke : well , i do n't know what to say except i 'm deeply grateful to you . olivia : well , i did n't really do anything . all i did was have a crazy vision . robbie was the one who took the information and ran with it . duke : well , he could n't have done it without your help . olivia : listen , i 'm just grateful that this faison guy is behind bars , and thank god i 'm not gon na be having anymore visions of him . faison : well , i 'm sure robin 's never far from your mind . especially on a beautiful day like today . it 's her birthday . anna : i 'm surprised you know that . faison : how could i not ? the daughter of the woman i love above all . how you must miss her . she must feel so far away . as you have felt to me . anna : to not see her or touch her ... to come to terms with the fact that i 'm never going to be with her again ... faison : anna , please listen to what i have to say . anna : what is it ? faison : robin is alive . daddy , i left it on the counter . patrick : you better go get it . emma : okay , but it better not have any breakfast gunk on it . tj ! elizabeth : you okay ? patrick : just thinking of the last birthday that robin and i spent together of hers . i rented a limo , and i went and picked her up at work and stole her away , which was n't easy , because you know the way she was with work , always so busy . i got her a few airline tickets -- one to tokyo , rio -- elizabeth : and paris . i know . she told me . she 'd never been to tokyo or rio , but for all the years she lived in paris , she just dreamed of sharing it with someone . she wanted to go back but only with you . patrick : i told her that we had our whole lives together to do that . i told her that we had time to make our dreams come true . but the truth is we did n't have the time . elizabeth : patrick you could n't have known that , neither of you . patrick : no , but why did n't i just whisk her away ? why did n't i just take her away right then and there ? we could have changed our lives . she would n't have been in the lab . elizabeth : listen to me . you need to forget about the trips you did n't take and remember the ones you did . you need to think about all the good times , remember how she used to smile and laugh and tell you that she loves you . that needs to stick in your head and your heart . she loved you so much . you can never regret that . robin : i 'm gon na finish jerry 's cure . and i 'm getting out of this godforsaken hellhole . i 'm going home , and i 'm doing it today . mac : we recorded her funeral . robert : you did ? mac : amfar requested it for a tribute they were doing for robin . look , i was n't sure it was the right thing to do at the time . but , robert , the outpouring of love ... was unbelievable . i do n't know if this is something you want to -- robert : play it . mac : you 're sure ? robert : it 's my daughter 's funeral . i want to see some of that ... that ... love that i missed . play it . mac : i was no one 's idea of father material when i took on the responsibility of raising robin . i promised to take care of her . but it was clear from the beginning that she was also taking care of me . robert : [ sighs ] mac : but i had a lot to learn about my niece ... about robin 's capacity for hope and love . and when robin was diagnosed with h.i.v . , i was awed by her courage . robin faced her diagnosis like she faced everything that life threw at her -- with strength and dignity . i 'm gon na tell you something that i always used to say to robin . `` we 're family . we 're scorpios . and there 's nothing we ca n't get through together . `` are you sure you 're okay with this ? robert : yeah . elizabeth : we all know how stubborn she could be . but she was stubborn for a reason . she fought hard for what she believed in , and she fought hard for the people she loved . a few months ago when she thought she might not be here for emma ... she asked if i would step in for her . well , i knew then what i know now ... and that 's robin 's irreplaceable . robert : you are so right about that . anna : 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 . 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 ... 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 . patrick : 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 . 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 . she made me feel that if you had love , anything was possible . robert : you all right ? mac : i 'm sorry . uh ... [ chuckles ] i wanted to do this for you . i did n't realize how hard it would be . i miss her so much . robert : there 's something i got to tell you . duke : i really should try to call anna . today 's gon na be a difficult day for her . well , it 's her daughter robin 's birthday . olivia : oh . oh , i had n't realized . i 'm sorry . that 's so sad . duke : did you know robin ? olivia : not very well . but i knew how much sonny loved her . i mean , everybody did . duke : i had n't seen her since she was a child . she was a great champion of mine . but her mother was reluctant to give me a chance . as far as stepdaughters go , she was the best stepdaughter in the world . we used to do a lot of things together . we cooked together . i taught her to play the bagpipes . olivia : [ laughs ] i bet the neighbors loved that . duke : no . she did . and that 's all that mattered . i treasure those memories . olivia : well , you obviously meant a great deal to her . duke : oh , she meant a great deal to me , too . anna : robin is alive ? ! that 's impossible ! faison : no , it 's not . anna : [ gasps ] faison : i kept her alive ... for you , anna . anna : how did you do that ? how did you keep her alive and hidden from me for all this time when you 've been in prison ? how did you do that ? faison : i have my collaborators outside , of course . anna : who ? ! i want names . who ? faison : jerry jacks ... the late dr. ewan keenan . and the lion 's share of help came from one of my most trusted associates ... dr. liesl obrecht . anna : oh , yes , i 'm familiar with dr. obrecht . she is devoted to you . loyal to a fault . it seems that she would rather die an to break your confidence . faison : yeah , that 's one of her admirable qualities . yes . anna : do you know she tried to kill someone in order to gain your affection ? faison : well , she 's in love with me ! it 's not that i want to make you jealous . she always has been . anna : you must have some attachment to her , given everything she 's done for you . faison : i have never returned her feelings , and i never will . anna : never ? faison : anna ... you 're the only woman in my life . i love you . only you . you feel so close to robin right now , other than the fact that it is her birthday , i think you realize it 's time to let her go . patrick : you 're probably right . when i took my ring off , it was like my whole body knew that something was missing . because i do n't want to let her go . elizabeth : taking the ring off means you 're saying goodbye . that 's what you 're doing . you 're saying goodbye . patrick : [ scoffs ] elizabeth : [ sighs ] i know . uh , i got to go . call me if you need anything , okay ? patrick : thank you . elizabeth : love you . patrick : love you , too . emma : found mommy 's card . patrick : you did ? good . okay . got to get going . got to get you to school . emma : okay , but will you keep my card for me ? until we put it in the memory box together later . patrick : promise . come on . emma : thank you . patrick : you 're welcome . let 's go .

[ scene_break ] caroline : if hope and liam got back together , and they talked things out , maybe it would be like a fresh start for them . rick : why do you care so much ? caroline : because i like hope . i respect her . she 's got convictions , and she lives by them , even when it hurts . and now her future with liam has been blown up all because of lies and deceptions . rick : mm - hmm . caroline : that 's -- that 's not fair . hope deserves to know the truth , and then she can make her own decision . i know that you love and respect your sister . you owe her this , rick . rick : yeah .

( sighs ) i could n't have done it without you , brooke . and then big bear -- the thought of that kiss being our last ...Summarize.[/INST]taylor tells brooke that her half - hearted apology about slapping her is accepted . taylor says she is actually here to thank brooke for stepping up and helping bill while katie was away . now katie is back and she 's ready to be a mother . taylor says she was happy to help in that . she knows brooke has been going through a bad time with ridge away so she hopes she too can get on with her future . she is still very concerned about katie 's original intentions that brooke and bill come together as a couple and raise will as a family . caroline is about to tell liam what she overheard when the doorbell rings . liam has to get it and it 's hope . both are surprised to see each other . rick tries to convince caroline that liam and hope have moved on so there is no need to tell him about italy and bill having deacon there . he just wants to protect his sister . rick says these are old patterns that keep getting repeated with the same results . hope and liam talk about will and he says it 's good to see her smile again . he has memories of their time in italy . steffy tells bill that he seems a little torn ; less than enthusiastic to see katie . so let 's tell the truth ; she wonders if anything happened between him and brooke . bill gets a bit touchy and denies anything happened or that he was even thinking along those lines .</s> | 567 |

( whispers ) gloria . ( normal voice ) i do n't know who i 'd like to strangle first -- her or bardwell . lauren : well , i suggest we strangle them both at the same time , because you know what really burns me is that if she had just been honest with us from the very beginning , none of this would have happened . michael : yeah , gloria 's allergic to honesty , and it 's no fun unless she 's in charge . my little brother , her henchman ... they both think that their crazy schemes are always gon na work . lauren : ( chuckles ) mm ... until they do n't . i should 've smelled a rat the moment he came into town when he showed up at his brother 's memorial service . william never mentioned anything about jeffrey . he never even mentioned he had a brother , and then this man just -- he just -- just walks into town . lauren : right , with one hell of an agenda .

[ emily sighs ] sonny : he 's not responsible for any of this . emily : my brother saw you through at least four previous breakdowns and he never got you professional help . i 'm sorry , but i have a hard time accepting that . sonny : he does n't believe in telling people how to live their lives . emily : he did n't have any problem telling us that we should give each other up . sonny : have you ever stopped to think how much that cost him ? emily : not as much as it cost you . sonny : i 'm going to be all right . i 'm going to be fine . i 'm going to get through this . and , you know , jason 's been through a lot . look what it 's done to the both of you . emily : sonny , i love jason . i just do n't want him giving you an excuse to back out of treatment . sonny : the decision is n't jason 's . it 's not yours . this is my life . and i have to decide how to live it .

[ sniffles ] so we will always be brothers . nick : man , i do n't have time for this . see , i got to find victoria before she hears about this from some reporter . that is my priority . so show yourself out . adam : well , i 'll make some calls . i can help track her down , all right ? nick : no ! adam : damn it , nick ! my place is here ! okay ? it 's right here with the newmans . all right ? nick : i 'm not gon na let you stick around out of some sense of pity or family unity . adam : nick -- nick : not after what you 've done . roll outta bed and into a new kind of breakfast . jack : thank you . and the authorities ? sharon : well , they arrested the girl who spiked the sangria , but everybody at the party ended up in the emergency room , including me . jack : you know , kyle shared all these details with me , but somehow , hearing it out of your mouth , it hits home . this was a very dangerous situation . sharon : i had a really serious reaction to it . thank god rey was there . and elena . and the paramedics took great care of me . but , anyway , enough of that . how about you ? let 's talk about you . how 's dina ? jack : [ sighs ] dina . sharon : oh . sorry . if you do n't want to -- jack : no , no , no , no . it 's all right . i -- it is heartbreaking watching my mother 's decline . i think in part because she was one of the most vital , dynamic people i 've ever known . and ... i do n't know . watching that light slowly dim is somehow even more painful . sharon : i 'm so sorry . jack : no , i - i 'm glad i have her in my life . i talk to her . i tell her i love her . that feels good . of course , when she recognizes me , or when she can hear what i 'm saying . i -- [ sighs ] i think her illness has caused me to reflect a lot on our relationship . seeing the past through her eyes has given me a new perspective on the family history . sharon : and how do you see things differently now , if you do n't mind me asking ? jack : my father always blamed dina for breaking up the family . i did , too . i 've come to realize maybe it was more complex than that . i think she felt neglected . my father was so busy building jabot , creating an empire , that ... maybe if he had prioritized his marriage more , maybe she would have stayed . sharon : well , it 's hard to say . you know , when marriages split up , there 's always a lot of blame to go around . jack : i do n't have to tell you , i have spent my whole life admiring my father . all that he accomplished . turns out it came at a cost . sharon : what do you mean ? jack : i think i always over - focused on the romantic side of my life . just to prove a point -- you know , my marriage would last because my parents ' didn't . and all i managed to prove was that being a divorce lawyer is very lucrative . sharon : well , i 'll try not to take that personally . jack : [ chuckles ] sharon : but i know what you mean . i 've always defined myself by my relationships , too . and look where that got me . jack : to a beautiful place , talking with one of your favorite ex - husbands ? billy : there 's no way that i could just block something like that out . victoria : maybe this is just your way of coping with it . billy : okay , well , if that 's true , then what you 're saying is , i 'm having some kind of mental break . victoria : i am worried that something 's broken in you , billy . i 'm not a psychiatrist , but i think the first step would be admitting that things are getting worse for you . this anger that you have for adam is totally consuming you . billy : i hate adam . you know that . i 've never been secret about that . victoria : and ? billy : [ sighs ] but i am not gon na try and kill him to avenge delia 's death , okay ? those days are gone . i 'm not someone who could do that . [ gasps ] victoria : you have been struggling ever since adam came back to town . the guilt that you lived with for years [ sighs ] it 's -- it 's -- it 's resurfaced , and it is swallowing you up . but i 'm here . i 'm right here . and i 'm not going anywhere . not without a fight . victoria : since when do you chew gum ? victoria : i just need you to let me in . billy : i do n't know how . victoria : well , start by acknowledging what really happened . victoria : i know it 's hard , but -- billy : no . no , no , no , no , no , no , no ! victoria : you can just get it out in the open , billy . billy : listen . listen to me . i do not know what chloe 's doing to me , okay , but she is wrong . you are wrong . victoria : billy -- billy . no , do n't do it . billy ! billy : aah ! [ groaning ] nick : our father died right there . the most powerful man we 've ever known is lying in a mortuary right now . adam : he was sick . that 's nobody 's fault . nick : [ sighs ] adam : just a few hours ago , he was telling us about all the issue he was having with his treatment . nick : `` issues . `` `` issues . `` yeah , that 's one way to put it . the only issue our father should have been focusing on was himself and getting better . but he could n't do that . because of you . you brought fresh pain to his life every day . you sucked all the energy away from him that he needed to fight this , and to win . you brought chaos and misery to not just him , but to the thing he loved he most , which was his family . adam : if victor really cared about his family as much as he said he did , why did he spend most of his life battling us and trying to control us ? you should know that 's true better than anybody . nick : he was a tough man to please . but make no mistake -- his biggest disappointment in life was you . and i believe with all of my heart that if you had never come back to genoa city , our father would still be alive . but he 's not . he 's gone . but you -- you 're still here . so you did it . you won . why do n't you go grab a bottle of champagne out of dad 's private stock ? just do n't expect anyone to jump in on the celebration . adam : look , you 're grieving . but i am grieving , too . and the idea that -- that dad died because i came back to town is crazy . i did n't even want to come back to genoa city . victor dragged me back here . nick : oh , yeah , adam . you 're a victim . i mean , dad wanted to bring you home , to reunite you with the family , to hand you newman enterprises on a silver platter . must have been so hard for you . adam : no , no . it was much more complicated than that . [ sighs ] god , do -- do you have any idea what it is like to suddenly find out that you are victor newman 's son ? [ stammers ] and to meet siblings you do n't even remember ? and then have all your attempts to get back everything that you lost treated like -- like acts of war . nick : do you expect me to believe this revisionist history ? nick : i was one of your targets , too , adam . just like dad . adam : yeah . and i tried to make amends with him just the other day . you have no idea how much i wish -- i wish that he 'd been willing to reconcile . nick : just spare me the crocodile tears . i was the one who just got my relationship back on track with him . only to lose him again . adam : well , believe it or not , i do know what that 's like . nick : do not compare yourself to me . i 'm not kidding you . get out . it 's your last chance to do it on your own . nick : hey , one more thing . there 's gon na be an autopsy . if i find there was any foul play whatsoever in dad 's death , i 'm gon na destroy the person who 's responsible . victoria : are you all right ? did you hurt yourself ? billy : [ groans ] victoria : what is it ? billy : nothing ! victoria : what do you see ? billy : nothing ! victoria : tell me what you see . billy : stop pressuring me ! just stop ! what do you want me to say ? victoria : you do n't have to say anything , okay ? it 's all right . let 's take a break . let 's get you back up into the bed , and we can relax for a while . come on . can you do that with me ? [ billy gasping ] phyllis : my gosh . what 's going on with you ? i 've been trying to get ahold of you . adam : i ca n't do this right now , phyllis . phyllis : why ? you busy making plans for your newman civil war ? what 's going on ? adam : [ jingling keys ] victor 's dead . oh . i like dark humor . it 's not really funny . it 's a little too morbid for me . adam : it 's not a joke . i just came from the ranch . victor had just got done telling us that his treatment stopped working . and then he ... collapsed and stopped breathing . nate hastings was there and tried to do everything he could , but by the time the ambulance got there , my father was gone . phyllis : oh , my god . that 's not possible . [ glass clattering ] what ? adam : yeah , it was all too real . i -- i saw it happen . phyllis : i mean , you said his treatment was n't really working , and ... was this you ? did you do this ? because you told me that you would n't feel any guilt by mixing his medication . that 's what you said to me , and i thought that was all for show . and -- and this happened , and -- and this was n't supposed to happen . th - this -- adam ... adam , are you realizing you may have gone too far ? this is hal . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . adam : what do you want me to say ? hm ? phyllis : okay . [ sighs ] just wait a second . wait a second . your dad , he was fighting a life - threatening disease . it is -- it is so possible that -- that you tampering with his medication had nothing to do with his death . that is -- adam : what -- what are you doing ? what are you doing ? do n't try and make me feel better . all right ? i do n't want it . save your sympathy for someone who needs it . [ sighs ] [ sighs ] phyllis : listen , adam , you 're putting up a front . but i get it . i know the truth . adam : i did n't want to kill him . even though he tried to kill me . [ sighs ] i just wanted him weak enough where he could n't fight back . and victoria worried enough and distracted so i could swoop in and take control of newman enterprises . phyllis : you just wanted newman enterprises ? why did n't you just take it ? victor offered it to you over and over . adam : because i did n't want a gift from daddy . it would have made me his puppet . i wanted to wrestle control of it from the rest of the family . while they were all preoccupied with his illness , i would dismantle it . phyllis : so you -- you just wanted to be the one to take your father down . that 's it . adam : all of them are at the ranch , grieving together , while i am here in exile like some hideous creature you ca n't even look at . phyllis : they 're at the ranch ? does summer know ? adam : yes . [ cellphone ringing ] summer : it 's mom . do you think she knows ? nick : adam probably told her . just -- just let it go to voicemail , all right ? you got enough going on right now . summer : no , i think i should answer , or else she 'll be worried about me . hello ? phyllis : hey , baby . i just heard . [ sighs ] how are you doing ? summer : um ... it 's pretty difficult , but i 'm h - hanging in there . phyllis : right . i 'm so sorry . uh , do you need me to come there ? i - i -- i 'll be right there . just -- just give me the word . summer : no . um ... no . there -- there 's a lot going on , and everyone 's really upset right now , so no . phyllis : well ... we can meet . we can go to the grand phoenix and -- whatever you want . summer : no , i really ca n't leave , mom . i probably should n't even be talking right now . so i 'll just call you when i can , okay ? i promise . [ crying ] nick : it 's gon na be okay . it 's gon na be okay . phyllis : she does n't sound good . she does n't want to see me . adam : well , just give her some time . phyllis : yeah . right . right . she needs time . [ sighs ] i know how you feel about being in exile . victoria : just sit back . sit back . close your eyes . i want you to remember . think about us , all right ? billy : quick trip to cali , and i 'll be back before you miss me . victoria : think about you and me , and johnny and katie . together and happy . hey . do you remember the night that you proposed to me ? billy : [ whimpers ] victoria : hey , billy . stay with me , billy . billy ! [ billy crying ] do you remember our commitment ceremony ? hey , i need you to focus on what i 'm saying , okay ? billy : i 'm trying . i 'm trying , vick . it 's a battle . victoria : i know . i know it is . billy : this is not happening . victoria : no , what -- billy : it 's not working . victoria : it 's -- it 's going to work . it will , billy . it 's gon na work . because you and i are more powerful than whatever 's going on inside of your head right now . and i know you 've felt isolated . i know that . but you 're not . you 're not . you 're fine . summer : have you heard from aunt vicki yet ? abby : uh ... no . nick : i called and told noah . i did n't want him to hear it from anyone else . it 's gon na take him a while to process it . summer : yeah , my mom knows , too . nick : [ sighs ] word 's starting to get out . i 'm gon na have to tell faith . we absolutely have to find vick . summer : [ crying ] what if we do n't ? you guys , i ca n't imagine turning on the news and finding out that way . nikki : oh , baby . do n't worry . we will find her . summer : i 'm sorry . there 's so much going on . i should be comforting you right now . nikki : we 're all dealing with a lot . nick : we 're gon na handle this the way dad would want us to -- as a family . sharon : i have always defined myself by who i was with , not who i wanted to be . starting with nick . and do n't get me wrong , i 'll always love nick . but when we first got together , my sole ambition in life was to be mrs . nicholas newman . jack : oh , come on . give yourself a little bit of slack . you were very young then . sharon : but it started a pattern . you know , i made my romantic relationships the center of my universe and neglected the other parts of my life . jack : you went back to school . you found meaningful work that helps lots of people . sharon : and then i quit my job out of solidarity with rey . now that relationship 's over , and he 's back on the force . jack : okay . maybe there 's a lesson to be learned there . sharon : [ chuckles ] you know , our breakup really threw me . i thought that he was the safe , dependable man that i wanted to be with . and then adam came back to town . and things got messy . jack : yeah , adam has a way of making things messy . sharon : well , i 'm not blaming adam or rey . i just had a lot of my own , you know , emotional baggage that i need to sort through , and it all kind of collided at the same time . and rey , he tried to be patient , but honestly ... he and i did n't stand a chance . jack : and what about adam ? any interest in rekindling things there ? sharon : maybe , you know , there was briefly , but not anymore . i just -- i - i do n't want adam 's destructive energy in my life . i - i can't . i ca n't allow it . jack : and that 's what brought you here . sharon : i just wanted to clear the decks and start to breathe clean air again . literally . nick : hey , vick , can you call me as soon as you get this ? wherever you are , whatever you 're doing , i just -- i need you to call me . we need to talk . it 's urgent . abby : where could she be ? nick : she left a message with the sitter , told her to hold down the fort . nate : hey , uh , i apologize for being gone so long . how are you all doing ? summer : i have to ask -- is there anything else that you could have done for him ? nick : we do n't mean to put you on the spot . nate : no , it 's okay . i understand you 're upset . i am , too . i promise you , i did everything i could to help your grandfather . summer : [ sobbing ] victoria : you and i , we 've had a very long and winding journey . this is just another curve in the road . we 've been through infidelities and breakups and crushing separations , detours . but we finally found our way back to each other , and we 're headed in the same direction . i 'm not gon na lose you , billy . you know , after j.t . , i just -- i never thought i would be able to trust a man again . or allow myself to be loved . but no matter how hard i pushed you away , you did n't give up on me . you gave me the space that i needed , and you let me move at my own pace . you even agreed to a non - marriage . now it 's my turn to be there for you . you have to trust me , though . and you have to do one other thing , too . jack : so , i commend you for coming all the way out here to reflect and recharge , but i think you 're taking more than your share of the blame for how your relationships turned out . sharon : well , i do n't want to let myself off the hook . you know , if i 'm not gon na be completely honest , what 's the point of reflecting ? jack : okay . you got something there . sharon : you know , the other night at the party , i just -- i found myself being drawn in toward rey , and ... i do n't know if it was just the drugs talking . it was me , and i ended up kissing him . but thank god things did n't go any further . jack : rey seems like a good guy . you sure it would be such a mistake to reconcile with him ? sharon : i need to focus on me for a while . jack : i do n't think you can go wrong there . you 're a good , strong , bright woman . you 're a great mother . and a good friend . sharon : well , i may not have always been the best wife . but i do think that you and i had the best divorce . jack : there should be a prize for that . sharon : you know , there really should be , because that 's hard to pull off . although you and i have always had just a very easy , uncomplicated friendship . jack : i 've always given you most of the credit for that . look , i know we do n't talk often enough , but i am always sure that you will tell me the truth . i am always sure that you will support me . and that feels nice . i 've missed you . sharon : i missed you , too . you know what , i want to be the first one to say this . someone has to . it just feels really good to sit down and chat , just as friends . jack : refreshing , is n't it ? sharon : yes , it really is . jack : we both came here alone . we will both go home alone . and there 's nothing wrong with that . sharon : you know , i came here , i thought i knew what i wanted , but i 'm glad that i found you . jack : here 's to fate . sharon : to fate . victoria : whoever it is that i saw when i first got here , it was n't you . it was n't the man that i love . this person was invented . billy : [ groans ] victoria : maybe a concoction in your mind as -- as a coping mechanism . i do n't know . just something , maybe , that you did to alleviate some of the pressure . this person was created to do the things that you could n't do . that -- that your conscious mind would not let you do . billy : no . no , that is not happening . victoria : no , it is . deep down , you know it is , so you admit it . billy : i can't . victoria : you tried to kill adam . you stole the car . you told him to meet you where delia was hit , and you tried to run him over . phyllis : uh , listen , obviously you want to be alone , so i will go . adam : phyllis . thank you . it 's hard to wrap my head around a world without victor newman . phyllis : for better or worse . adam : i know i fantasized about life without him . but ... [ sighs ] phyllis : but what ? [ sighs ] nick : you know what , i think , uh -- i think we should all eat something . let 's go in the kitchen and see if the cook can cook us up something . abby : no , i - i ca n't even think about food right now . summer : food is the last thing on my mind . nick : i know . but we need to keep our strength up . today was hard . it 's only gon na get harder . nikki : nicholas is right . come on . l - let 's all go . nate : i 'm gon na head out . i 'll check in on you later . nikki : nate . please join us . nate : oh , of course . | the newmans were devastated by victor 's death , but none of them were able to reach victoria and deliver the news to her . adam wanted to be with his family , but nick accused him of causing victor 's death and threw him off the ranch . phyllis tried to be there for adam , but he pushed her away . phyllis reached out to summer and was hurt when summer did n't want to lean on her for support . victoria met with billy , and she helped him have a breakthrough and remember trying to kill adam . jack and sharon happened to end up vacationing at the same hotel . they had a heart to heart about why they 'd left town , and they felt that fate brought them together . | <s>[INST] [ previously_on ] sharon : hi , guys . nick : sharon . hi . sharon : i 'm just traveling solo , destination unknown . just want to get some perspective . jack : something 's missing in my life . i have to figure out what that is and set a new course . chloe : we stopped billy from doing something that could have wrecked a lot of people 's lives . and i 've got him stashed away in a boathouse . adam : i switched the medication in dad 's pocket . the pills are twice as strong now . we have a doctor here and he -- he ca n't get a pulse . please hurry ! nick : come on , dad . nikki : victor ! victor , please . please stay with us . stay with us ! we all love you . victor ! summer : [ sobs quietly ] [ sniffles ] adam : god , it -- it happened so fast . [ sniffles ] how is it possible ? that dad ... is actually dead ? billy : [ breathing heavily ] [ gasps ] hey . how long you been here ? victoria : about an hour . billy : have i been sleeping the whole time ? you should have woke me up . victoria : no , you -- you were awake . billy : i do n't understand . victoria : we talked for a little while , then you fell back asleep . you do n't remember ? i 'm not really surprised about that . i was talking to you , but it was sort of like i was talking to someone entirely different . billy : i do n't know what 's going on . victoria : whatever it is , we 're gon na deal with it . and i 'm not leaving until we do . jack : thank you . i 've done a lot of things in my life , but a sunset horseback ride will be a first . appreciate it . oh , i 'm so -- sharon ? sharon : jack ? wha -- jack : what are you doing here ? sharon : i 'm just on a much - needed vacation . you ? jack : same . i - i came here to relax and reflect and reset . sharon : what are the odds that you and i end up at the same spot in sedona ? jack : i 'd say very small . but maybe this is fate . adam : can i get you s - something ? nick : if my mother needs anything , i 'll take care of it . adam : we 're all in shock . i 'm just trying to help . nick : you can drop the act now , adam . adam : what act are you talking about ? nick : quit pretending like you did n't get exactly what you wanted . adam : [ scoffs ] i didn't . nick : dad 's gone . and it 's your fault . adam : wh - why are you blaming me ? nick : because we all did everything we could to help dad , to make his life easier . all you did was focus on your quest for revenge even though you knew he was fighting for his life . adam : if i had any idea that this was gon na happen -- nick : no , no , no . it is too late for regrets . you do n't belong here . so get out . now . additional sponsorship jack : so , i thought sedona would be a pretty place to relax and reflect and think about my next move . you ? sharon : um ... my plan was to just get in the car and drive . jack : well , if the fates saw fit to bring two old friends together , i guess we should make the most of it . sharon : yeah , i agree . now why do n't you tell me what you 're really doing here . jack : what , we 're gon na get to it right away ? sharon : well , i figured i 'd just save us both some time , you know . i 've got an art - gallery tour at 6 : 00 . jack : i 'm not running away from anything , if that 's what you 're thinking . i 've just been feeling ... unfulfilled lately . i 'm at a place in my life where i accomplished quite a lot , and i should feel content , and i don't . so i thought maybe i have to find something out there , something to explore . i do n't know what that is , but maybe it 's in the red rocks of sedona . sharon : well , if only things were that simple . jack : if only . and you 're gon na tell me you 're just here for the mud baths . sharon : i just ... needed a break from genoa city . jack : anyone in particular ? sharon : men in general . my problems always seem to revolve around them . jack : i 'll try not to take that personally . sharon : oh . [ laughs ] listen , um , i - i have a shuttle that i 've got to catch , um , to town , so ... um ... did you care to join me ? jack : i - i got a date with a horse . sharon : well , i 'm much better company than a horse . jack : heh . well , i -- at the risk of offending my horse , maybe we should just cancel both of our activities and just sit and talk . it 's been a long time . sharon : that sounds wonderful . jack : what better way to begin my fresh start than with an old friend ? victoria : you are the most important person in my life . and i 'm not gon na let anything take me away from you until we figure this out . billy : i 'm so glad you 're here . victoria : [ sighs ] chloe filled me in . it 's quite a story . billy : not everything she said was true . look ... [ sighs ] okay , i - i know that i 've been doing some things lately . waking up in -- in random places with no recollection of how i got there . but for what she said i did ... victoria : she said you tried to kill adam . billy : [ sniffles ] [ gasps ] [ sighs ] i know i 'm not right . which is why i 'm so desperate to have you here . but ... i did n't try to kill adam , vick . victoria : i know you believe that . billy , but what if you 're wrong ? billy : [ sighs ] victoria : and what if you ca n't admit the truth because it 's too hard to accept ? adam : i 'm grieving , just like you . just like all of you . how could you think that this is what i wanted ? nick : really ? you 're gon na deny it ? adam : [ scoffs ] yeah , i 'm not gon na pretend like there was n't friction between me and dad . of course there was . b - but that has always been there . that is the core of our relationship . hell , conflict with victor is what binds this entire family together . nikki : that 's not true . victor 's love is what holds us -- abby : oh ... nikki : [ voice breaks ] ... together . nick : mom ... [ nikki sobbing ] mom , look ... i 'm really sorry i got into this pin front of you . but i need to talk to adam alone . abby , can you and summer take mom upstairs , please ? summer : yeah . yeah . come on , grandma . [ nikki sobbing ] adam : ab - abby . abby , please . okay , look , you have to know that i feel just as bad about this as anybody . abby : what are you doing ? adam : what , s - so everyone 's gon na treat me like i have the plague ? ! okay . okay . par for the course , right ? why should that change now ? huh ? ! nick : you 're making things worse just by being here . adam : i am a part of this family . so you guys can not pretend like i do n't exist . nick : dad 's dead . and he was your connection to this family . well , now he 's gone . adam : well , he was my father , too .

[ gasps ] victoria : you have been struggling ever since adam came back to town . the guilt that you lived with for years [ sighs ] it 's -- it 's -- it 's resurfaced , and it is swallowing you up . but i 'm here . i 'm right here . and i 'm not going anywhere . not without a fight . victoria : since when do you chew gum ? victoria : i just need you to let me in . billy : i do n't know how . victoria : well , start by acknowledging what really happened . victoria : i know it 's hard , but -- billy : no . no , no , no , no , no , no , no ! victoria : you can just get it out in the open , billy . billy : listen . listen to me . i do not know what chloe 's doing to me , okay , but she is wrong . you are wrong . victoria : billy -- billy . no , do n't do it . billy ! billy : aah ! [ groaning ] nick : our father died right there . the most powerful man we 've ever known is lying in a mortuary right now . adam : he was sick . that 's nobody 's fault . nick : [ sighs ] adam : just a few hours ago , he was telling us about all the issue he was having with his treatment . nick : `` issues . `` `` issues . `` yeah , that 's one way to put it . the only issue our father should have been focusing on was himself and getting better . but he could n't do that . because of you . you brought fresh pain to his life every day . you sucked all the energy away from him that he needed to fight this , and to win . you brought chaos and misery to not just him , but to the thing he loved he most , which was his family . adam : if victor really cared about his family as much as he said he did , why did he spend most of his life battling us and trying to control us ? you should know that 's true better than anybody . nick : he was a tough man to please . but make no mistake -- his biggest disappointment in life was you . and i believe with all of my heart that if you had never come back to genoa city , our father would still be alive . but he 's not . he 's gone . but you -- you 're still here . so you did it . you won . why do n't you go grab a bottle of champagne out of dad 's private stock ? just do n't expect anyone to jump in on the celebration . adam : look , you 're grieving . but i am grieving , too . and the idea that -- that dad died because i came back to town is crazy . i did n't even want to come back to genoa city . victor dragged me back here . nick : oh , yeah , adam . you 're a victim . i mean , dad wanted to bring you home , to reunite you with the family , to hand you newman enterprises on a silver platter . must have been so hard for you . adam : no , no . it was much more complicated than that . [ sighs ] god , do -- do you have any idea what it is like to suddenly find out that you are victor newman 's son ? [ stammers ] and to meet siblings you do n't even remember ? and then have all your attempts to get back everything that you lost treated like -- like acts of war . nick : do you expect me to believe this revisionist history ? nick : i was one of your targets , too , adam . just like dad . adam : yeah . and i tried to make amends with him just the other day . you have no idea how much i wish -- i wish that he 'd been willing to reconcile . nick : just spare me the crocodile tears . i was the one who just got my relationship back on track with him . only to lose him again . adam : well , believe it or not , i do know what that 's like . nick : do not compare yourself to me . i 'm not kidding you . get out . it 's your last chance to do it on your own . nick : hey , one more thing . there 's gon na be an autopsy . if i find there was any foul play whatsoever in dad 's death , i 'm gon na destroy the person who 's responsible . victoria : are you all right ? did you hurt yourself ? billy : [ groans ] victoria : what is it ? billy : nothing ! victoria : what do you see ? billy : nothing ! victoria : tell me what you see . billy : stop pressuring me ! just stop ! what do you want me to say ? victoria : you do n't have to say anything , okay ? it 's all right . let 's take a break . let 's get you back up into the bed , and we can relax for a while . come on . can you do that with me ? [ billy gasping ] phyllis : my gosh . what 's going on with you ? i 've been trying to get ahold of you . adam : i ca n't do this right now , phyllis . phyllis : why ? you busy making plans for your newman civil war ? what 's going on ? adam : [ jingling keys ] victor 's dead . oh . i like dark humor . it 's not really funny . it 's a little too morbid for me . adam : it 's not a joke . i just came from the ranch . victor had just got done telling us that his treatment stopped working . and then he ... collapsed and stopped breathing . nate hastings was there and tried to do everything he could , but by the time the ambulance got there , my father was gone . phyllis : oh , my god . that 's not possible . [ glass clattering ] what ? adam : yeah , it was all too real . i -- i saw it happen . phyllis : i mean , you said his treatment was n't really working , and ... was this you ? did you do this ? because you told me that you would n't feel any guilt by mixing his medication . that 's what you said to me , and i thought that was all for show . and -- and this happened , and -- and this was n't supposed to happen . th - this -- adam ... adam , are you realizing you may have gone too far ? this is hal . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . adam : what do you want me to say ? hm ? phyllis : okay . [ sighs ] just wait a second . wait a second . your dad , he was fighting a life - threatening disease . it is -- it is so possible that -- that you tampering with his medication had nothing to do with his death . that is -- adam : what -- what are you doing ? what are you doing ? do n't try and make me feel better . all right ? i do n't want it . save your sympathy for someone who needs it . [ sighs ] [ sighs ] phyllis : listen , adam , you 're putting up a front . but i get it . i know the truth . adam : i did n't want to kill him . even though he tried to kill me . [ sighs ] i just wanted him weak enough where he could n't fight back . and victoria worried enough and distracted so i could swoop in and take control of newman enterprises . phyllis : you just wanted newman enterprises ? why did n't you just take it ? victor offered it to you over and over . adam : because i did n't want a gift from daddy . it would have made me his puppet . i wanted to wrestle control of it from the rest of the family . while they were all preoccupied with his illness , i would dismantle it . phyllis : so you -- you just wanted to be the one to take your father down . that 's it . adam : all of them are at the ranch , grieving together , while i am here in exile like some hideous creature you ca n't even look at . phyllis : they 're at the ranch ? does summer know ? adam : yes . [ cellphone ringing ] summer : it 's mom . do you think she knows ? nick : adam probably told her . just -- just let it go to voicemail , all right ? you got enough going on right now . summer : no , i think i should answer , or else she 'll be worried about me . hello ? phyllis : hey , baby . i just heard . [ sighs ] how are you doing ? summer : um ... it 's pretty difficult , but i 'm h - hanging in there . phyllis : right . i 'm so sorry . uh , do you need me to come there ? i - i -- i 'll be right there . just -- just give me the word . summer : no . um ... no . there -- there 's a lot going on , and everyone 's really upset right now , so no . phyllis : well ... we can meet . we can go to the grand phoenix and -- whatever you want . summer : no , i really ca n't leave , mom . i probably should n't even be talking right now . so i 'll just call you when i can , okay ? i promise . [ crying ] nick : it 's gon na be okay . it 's gon na be okay . phyllis : she does n't sound good . she does n't want to see me . adam : well , just give her some time . phyllis : yeah . right . right . she needs time . [ sighs ] i know how you feel about being in exile . victoria : just sit back . sit back . close your eyes . i want you to remember . think about us , all right ? billy : quick trip to cali , and i 'll be back before you miss me . victoria : think about you and me , and johnny and katie . together and happy . hey . do you remember the night that you proposed to me ? billy : [ whimpers ] victoria : hey , billy . stay with me , billy . billy ! [ billy crying ] do you remember our commitment ceremony ? hey , i need you to focus on what i 'm saying , okay ? billy : i 'm trying . i 'm trying , vick . it 's a battle . victoria : i know . i know it is . billy : this is not happening . victoria : no , what -- billy : it 's not working . victoria : it 's -- it 's going to work . it will , billy . it 's gon na work . because you and i are more powerful than whatever 's going on inside of your head right now . and i know you 've felt isolated . i know that . but you 're not . you 're not . you 're fine . summer : have you heard from aunt vicki yet ? abby : uh ... no . nick : i called and told noah . i did n't want him to hear it from anyone else . it 's gon na take him a while to process it . summer : yeah , my mom knows , too . nick : [ sighs ] word 's starting to get out . i 'm gon na have to tell faith . we absolutely have to find vick . summer : [ crying ] what if we do n't ? you guys , i ca n't imagine turning on the news and finding out that way . nikki : oh , baby . do n't worry . we will find her . summer : i 'm sorry . there 's so much going on . i should be comforting you right now . nikki : we 're all dealing with a lot . nick : we 're gon na handle this the way dad would want us to -- as a family . sharon : i have always defined myself by who i was with , not who i wanted to be . starting with nick . and do n't get me wrong , i 'll always love nick . but when we first got together , my sole ambition in life was to be mrs . nicholas newman . jack : oh , come on . give yourself a little bit of slack . you were very young then . sharon : but it started a pattern . you know , i made my romantic relationships the center of my universe and neglected the other parts of my life . jack : you went back to school . you found meaningful work that helps lots of people . sharon : and then i quit my job out of solidarity with rey . now that relationship 's over , and he 's back on the force . jack : okay . maybe there 's a lesson to be learned there . sharon : [ chuckles ] you know , our breakup really threw me . i thought that he was the safe , dependable man that i wanted to be with . and then adam came back to town . and things got messy . jack : yeah , adam has a way of making things messy . sharon : well , i 'm not blaming adam or rey . i just had a lot of my own , you know , emotional baggage that i need to sort through , and it all kind of collided at the same time . and rey , he tried to be patient , but honestly ... he and i did n't stand a chance . jack : and what about adam ? any interest in rekindling things there ? sharon : maybe , you know , there was briefly , but not anymore . i just -- i - i do n't want adam 's destructive energy in my life . i - i can't . i ca n't allow it . jack : and that 's what brought you here . sharon : i just wanted to clear the decks and start to breathe clean air again . literally . nick : hey , vick , can you call me as soon as you get this ? wherever you are , whatever you 're doing , i just -- i need you to call me . we need to talk . it 's urgent . abby : where could she be ? nick : she left a message with the sitter , told her to hold down the fort . nate : hey , uh , i apologize for being gone so long . how are you all doing ? summer : i have to ask -- is there anything else that you could have done for him ? nick : we do n't mean to put you on the spot . nate : no , it 's okay . i understand you 're upset . i am , too . i promise you , i did everything i could to help your grandfather . summer : [ sobbing ] victoria : you and i , we 've had a very long and winding journey . this is just another curve in the road . we 've been through infidelities and breakups and crushing separations , detours . but we finally found our way back to each other , and we 're headed in the same direction . i 'm not gon na lose you , billy . you know , after j.t . , i just -- i never thought i would be able to trust a man again . or allow myself to be loved . but no matter how hard i pushed you away , you did n't give up on me . you gave me the space that i needed , and you let me move at my own pace . you even agreed to a non - marriage . now it 's my turn to be there for you . you have to trust me , though . and you have to do one other thing , too . jack : so , i commend you for coming all the way out here to reflect and recharge , but i think you 're taking more than your share of the blame for how your relationships turned out . sharon : well , i do n't want to let myself off the hook . you know , if i 'm not gon na be completely honest , what 's the point of reflecting ? jack : okay . you got something there . sharon : you know , the other night at the party , i just -- i found myself being drawn in toward rey , and ... i do n't know if it was just the drugs talking . it was me , and i ended up kissing him . but thank god things did n't go any further . jack : rey seems like a good guy . you sure it would be such a mistake to reconcile with him ? sharon : i need to focus on me for a while . jack : i do n't think you can go wrong there . you 're a good , strong , bright woman . you 're a great mother . and a good friend . sharon : well , i may not have always been the best wife . but i do think that you and i had the best divorce . jack : there should be a prize for that . sharon : you know , there really should be , because that 's hard to pull off . although you and i have always had just a very easy , uncomplicated friendship . jack : i 've always given you most of the credit for that . look , i know we do n't talk often enough , but i am always sure that you will tell me the truth . i am always sure that you will support me . and that feels nice . i 've missed you . sharon : i missed you , too . you know what , i want to be the first one to say this . someone has to . it just feels really good to sit down and chat , just as friends . jack : refreshing , is n't it ? sharon : yes , it really is . jack : we both came here alone . we will both go home alone . and there 's nothing wrong with that . sharon : you know , i came here , i thought i knew what i wanted , but i 'm glad that i found you . jack : here 's to fate . sharon : to fate . victoria : whoever it is that i saw when i first got here , it was n't you . it was n't the man that i love . this person was invented . billy : [ groans ] victoria : maybe a concoction in your mind as -- as a coping mechanism . i do n't know . just something , maybe , that you did to alleviate some of the pressure . this person was created to do the things that you could n't do . that -- that your conscious mind would not let you do . billy : no . no , that is not happening . victoria : no , it is . deep down , you know it is , so you admit it . billy : i can't . victoria : you tried to kill adam . you stole the car . you told him to meet you where delia was hit , and you tried to run him over . phyllis : uh , listen , obviously you want to be alone , so i will go . adam : phyllis . thank you . it 's hard to wrap my head around a world without victor newman . phyllis : for better or worse . adam : i know i fantasized about life without him . but ... [ sighs ] phyllis : but what ? [ sighs ] nick : you know what , i think , uh -- i think we should all eat something . let 's go in the kitchen and see if the cook can cook us up something . abby : no , i - i ca n't even think about food right now . summer : food is the last thing on my mind . nick : i know . but we need to keep our strength up . today was hard . it 's only gon na get harder . nikki : nicholas is right . come on . l - let 's all go . nate : i 'm gon na head out . i 'll check in on you later . nikki : nate . please join us . nate : oh , of course .Summarize.[/INST]the newmans were devastated by victor 's death , but none of them were able to reach victoria and deliver the news to her . adam wanted to be with his family , but nick accused him of causing victor 's death and threw him off the ranch . phyllis tried to be there for adam , but he pushed her away . phyllis reached out to summer and was hurt when summer did n't want to lean on her for support . victoria met with billy , and she helped him have a breakthrough and remember trying to kill adam . jack and sharon happened to end up vacationing at the same hotel . they had a heart to heart about why they 'd left town , and they felt that fate brought them together .</s> | 18,077 |

[ scene_break ] sonny : i do n't know what 's happened to you in your life , griffin , what kind of demons or trouble you 've had to deal with . that 's between you and your maker . but i got to -- i got to , uh , deal with my life , my family . this is the best way i know how . griffin : look , i understand that . sonny : okay , let me just say this about -- let 's talk about julian , who he is , what he 's done , and the -- and the threat he poses . first of all ... put a hit on your father . killed carlos , and he put a knife -- he put a knife to alexis ' throat . a woman ! if i did n't show up , he would 've -- he would 've -- he would 've killed her . so , that -- that pretty much tells me he does n't value life . he does n't respect innocence . griffin : look , i do n't excuse julian for anything he 's done . sonny : he would -- he would -- i know . i know that . nobody does , right ? he would go after an innocent child and a woman just as quick as he -- he 'd come after me . as a matter of fact , he did come after me . out in public a couple days ago , he says to me , `` i 'm taking you down . you 're gon na be in the ground . `` what am i supposed to do ? go and just be in the garage while his hit men come and ambush me like they did duke ? use harsh language ? when am i gon na be able to stop turning the other cheek and defend myself ? ! griffin : you sound like you 're trying to convince yourself of something , sonny , and you 're having doubts . sonny : no , i just got to do the right thing . [ sighs ] griffin : let me tell you what i learned about this statue when i was in the seminary . the sacred heart is about love . w - w - we ca n't walk on water , turn water into wine like jesus , but that 's not our purpose . what we can do is love like jesus , forgive like jesus , offer up all injustice to god the father , the way his son did on the last day of his earthly life . sonny : jesus is divine . i 'm human . i 'm way past the point of redemption . griffin : hey , i do n't know what you did in your past . but i know what you 're planning to do today , and it 's wrong . you have a chance to make things right , for you , for carly , for everyone who loves you . will you ?

[ sighs ] i 'm sorry to hear that . carly : he 's angry . he 's humiliated . i mean , he was doing so well , and now it 's like his bipolar is n't in check at all . jason : is he taking his meds ? carly : he swears he is . he does . and he was doing so well for so long . and i 'm trying not to hover , because he gets really mad at me when i do , but these past few weeks , it 's been really bad . he 's sleeping all day . he 's home all the time . he 's missing shifts at work . but then he 's waking up , and he 's really focused on something new . jason : well , sometimes it takes a while for these meds to balance . you and i both know how long that process can take , but ... they work . look at sonny . carly : i know . i hear you , okay ? it 's just , he 's my baby , you know ? he 's my baby boy , and i just feel like i 'm not doing enough for him . jason : you 're a good mom . you do enough for all of your kids . you 're always there to support them , even when they might not want it . carly : [ laughs ] most of the time . you 're right . i mean , it 's all gon na be fine , right ? it 's all gon na work out . thank you .

[ sighs ] you must think that i 'm the worst person in the world . dillon : no , i think that you 're human , and i think that you 're finally being honest with yourself . kiki : it almost feels like my relationship with morgan , it 's a crutch for both of us . dillon : how so ? kiki : morgan leans on me to get him through the day without ever having to deal with any of his own issues , and then here i am doing backflips trying to make everything right for him . i mean , i 'm losing sight of who i am and -- and what i need .

[ scene_break ] sonny : i do n't know what 's happened to you in your life , griffin , what kind of demons or trouble you 've had to deal with . that 's between you and your maker . but i got to -- i got to , uh , deal with my life , my family . this is the best way i know how . griffin : look , i understand that . sonny : okay , let me just say this about -- let 's talk about julian , who he is , what he 's done , and the -- and the threat he poses . first of all ... put a hit on your father . killed carlos , and he put a knife -- he put a knife to alexis ' throat . a woman ! if i did n't show up , he would 've -- he would 've -- he would 've killed her . so , that -- that pretty much tells me he does n't value life . he does n't respect innocence . griffin : look , i do n't excuse julian for anything he 's done . sonny : he would -- he would -- i know . i know that . nobody does , right ? he would go after an innocent child and a woman just as quick as he -- he 'd come after me . as a matter of fact , he did come after me . out in public a couple days ago , he says to me , `` i 'm taking you down . you 're gon na be in the ground . `` what am i supposed to do ? go and just be in the garage while his hit men come and ambush me like they did duke ? use harsh language ? when am i gon na be able to stop turning the other cheek and defend myself ? ! griffin : you sound like you 're trying to convince yourself of something , sonny , and you 're having doubts . sonny : no , i just got to do the right thing . [ sighs ] griffin : let me tell you what i learned about this statue when i was in the seminary . the sacred heart is about love . w - w - we ca n't walk on water , turn water into wine like jesus , but that 's not our purpose . what we can do is love like jesus , forgive like jesus , offer up all injustice to god the father , the way his son did on the last day of his earthly life . sonny : jesus is divine . i 'm human . i 'm way past the point of redemption . griffin : hey , i do n't know what you did in your past . but i know what you 're planning to do today , and it 's wrong . you have a chance to make things right , for you , for carly , for everyone who loves you . will you ?

[ sighs ] i 'm sorry to hear that . carly : he 's angry . he 's humiliated . i mean , he was doing so well , and now it 's like his bipolar is n't in check at all . jason : is he taking his meds ? carly : he swears he is . he does . and he was doing so well for so long . and i 'm trying not to hover , because he gets really mad at me when i do , but these past few weeks , it 's been really bad . he 's sleeping all day . he 's home all the time . he 's missing shifts at work . but then he 's waking up , and he 's really focused on something new . jason : well , sometimes it takes a while for these meds to balance . you and i both know how long that process can take , but ... they work . look at sonny . carly : i know . i hear you , okay ? it 's just , he 's my baby , you know ? he 's my baby boy , and i just feel like i 'm not doing enough for him . jason : you 're a good mom . you do enough for all of your kids . you 're always there to support them , even when they might not want it . carly : [ laughs ] most of the time . you 're right . i mean , it 's all gon na be fine , right ? it 's all gon na work out . thank you .

[ chuckles ] ... things were great . i really thought that we were gon na be okay . and then almost overnight ... morgan changed . dillon : so , that 's what you 've been dealing with the last couple of weeks ? kiki : i love morgan . i do . i always will . but the love that i feel now ... it 's not strong enough to build a life on . [ sighs ] you must think that i 'm the worst person in the world . dillon : no , i think that you 're human , and i think that you 're finally being honest with yourself . kiki : it almost feels like my relationship with morgan , it 's a crutch for both of us . dillon : how so ? kiki : morgan leans on me to get him through the day without ever having to deal with any of his own issues , and then here i am doing backflips trying to make everything right for him . i mean , i 'm losing sight of who i am and -- and what i need . [ sighs ] maybe that 's ... that 's the bigger problem here . i made morgan think that he 's the one for me . and maybe he 's not .

[ scene_break ] dillon : if morgan 's not the one for you , does that mean someone else is ? kiki ... are you talking about me ? kiki : yes . but it 's not fair . i - i 've been giving you such mixed signals , and i 've been wanting to get closer to you , and then i 've been pushing you away . dillon : kiki , i 'm a big boy , okay ? i can take it . kiki : are you sure ? because all i know is that i can not make a choice and stick to it . first i was with morgan . then i was with michael . then i was with morgan again . and then when -- when morgan was in the hospital , i started to get close to you . and then i ditched you for morgan . then here i am thinking about you again . i keep bouncing around from guy to guy when all i want to do is the right thing . dillon : kiki . stop , okay ? please . listen to me . i did what i thought was the right thing to do , okay ? i got back into the friend zone . i gave you and morgan your space . but i never got you out of my system . not ever .

erica : any word on madison ? brot : nothing yet , but i 'm sure the apb is still in effect . angie : well , madison did n't have any cash . no credit cards , no bank card . that should make it easier . brot : i know she 's still in the area . at least , i 'm sure she is . i 'll be sure to keep you guys posted . erica : ok . thank you . i just hope that madison 's father has n't gotten to her already . angie : he was down at the police station , and he gave every indication of being nothing but concerned about madison . he insisted she 's very unstable , delusional . erica : well , her bruises are very real . angie : well , there 's no proof that they were at her father 's hand . erica : i do n't agree with you . her reaction -- madison is terrified of him . everything she has said is consistent with a victim of abuse , both mental and physical . angie : i understand your concern , erica . but i know her . you do n't . what she did to my son , my husband , randi . erica : does that mean you wo n't help her ? [ scene_break ] madison : thank you for helping me get out of there before my father could find me . randi : you can stay here until you decide what exactly it is you 're going to do , like start a new life . madison : somewhere else . you did n't tell frankie ? randi : i left a message that i was staying with a friend who needed some help . madison : you hate me . i framed you , threw myself at frankie , and blackmailed your family . why are you helping me ?

it 's a good thing you 're getting your feelings out , because you have a big decision to make and you need to know why you 're making it . abigail : well , if you think i 'm getting my life together , why do n't you check back with me when i find out if i 'm carrying chad 's baby ? kayla : and what if it 's ben 's baby ? are you gon na be happy with that ? chad : do n't do that . stop harping on abigail and me . i mean it . stefano : [ chuckles ] i was just speaking the truth . chad : here 's the truth . abigail hates my guts . stefano : you know , samantha felt the same way about elvis . okay ? that kind of passionate hatred , it 's often a cover for a whole other kind of passion . brady : if you 're telling yourself that eric 's having second thoughts about dumping you , then you 're even more delusional than i thought , because he hates you . serena : that does n't mean that i stopped caring about him . brady : serena , find someone else to care about and stay away from my brother . i think i made that perfectly clear back at the apartment , did n't i ? serena : oh , yeah , you did , perfectly clear . brady : but you 're not the kind of girl to give up easy , are ya ? serena : i 'm a journalist . that 's how we are . brady : what 's this i hear about you getting a job around here ? serena : it 's a grant , actually . brady : grant ? is it from the hospital ?

[ laughs ] that they were meant for each other , you understand ? their time ran out . is that what you want for yourself , huh ? huh ? and abigail , hmm ? jj : agent watts , please . hey , i just got back from seeing kyle . he had me deliver a package to a guy he said was his brother , and that guy gave me an envelope . it 's drug money . what do i do with it ? okay , so i 'm gon na give the package to kyle like i 'm supposed to . but you and i have to meet , 'cause you need to tell me what to do next . okay , good . mom ? jennifer : jj , what have you gotten yourself into now ? eric : i get a little worried when you start talking about destroying someone . nicole : i know how to handle serena , okay . but you and i are the only two people who know what we did -- almost did . and we 're not gon na say anything to anyone , right ? eric : right . nicole : things will be fine .

[ sighs ] yes , i hooked up with a bad guy , and that -- that is on me . but i still had to get those diamonds , or else xander was going to kill eric to get them . and i warned you to stay the hell away from xander , but you 're too pigheaded and/or stupid to listen . nicole : okay , you better calm down , or you might miss the one chance i was gon na give you to save your ass . serena : i ca n't wait to hear this . nicole : you 've made eric 's life a living hell long enough . i 'm sure even you can see that . so why do n't you just stay away ... from eric , me , daniel , brady , everyone ? i 'm sure you can handle it . i mean , are n't you getting sick of getting told off ? now , listen , if you do that , i promise i will do something for you . eric : come on , why should you be worried about me ? brady : because i know you . i can tell that you 're struggling with something really big , and you 're not talking to anybody about it . eric : i 'll be okay . i 'll be okay . brady : great . i feel so much better now , eric . eric : yeah , well , what do you want me to say ? brady : how many times when i was struggling did you come to me and say , `` brady , there is n't anything i would n't do for you `` ? eric : yeah , well , did you take me up on it ? brady : no . no , i did n't . that 's because i was an idiot . you 're supposed to be the rational , wise brother . eric : yeah , well , everybody knows that . brady : yeah . eric : you 're right . there is something going on . brady : see , i knew it . eric : listen , you have to ... brady : i knew it . eric : give me your word that it 'll absolutely stay between us . you get used to the lingering kyle : so everything went okay with the buy ? that 's good . good . good . listen , i got to go . paige : hi . kyle : hi . you look -- you look amazing . paige : thanks . kyle : listen , i got to fire off one text , and then you and i are gon na have some fun . paige : sounds good . kyle : all right . jennifer : i can not believe that paige would take up with a drug dealer , jj . jj : yeah , she would n't have before . then she found out what i did , and now she does n't care what happens to her . jennifer : well , that 's horrible . but that is up to paige and -- and eve , her mother , who should be looking out for this destructive behavior . jj : eve ? mom , are you kidding me ? eve does n't have a clue , and paige does n't want to see that . jennifer : okay , but , honey , you have to understand , whatever paige does and whoever she is involved with , that is up to her . she is not your concern , not anymore . jj : okay , so i 'm just supposed to sit back and do nothing while she hangs out with a guy that can get her hooked on drugs or worse ? jennifer : no , jj . jj : i 'm just supposed to say , `` hey , it 's not my problem `` ? jennifer : i 'm just saying if this guy is as bad as you say he is paige will eventually see right through him . she will come to her senses . she will . jj : eventually is n't good enough , mom . and what if she does n't ? jennifer : honey , i know that you are trying to be responsible . i know that you 're trying to be brave . and i know you are trying to undo what has been done , and i love you for that . but you have to do this because it 's -- it 's right and it 's noble and it 's important . it ca n't be about paige . [ cell phone ringing ] abigail : well , i hope you know that your son makes me very happy too . clyde : i 'm glad to hear that . ben probably told you he had a pretty hard go of it growing up because of me . abigail : yes . yeah , he 's told me . clyde : i was afraid he might never be happy . but now , you know , he 's got a good job . he 's going to college , but mainly , he 's got you . and i 'm hoping that this is the start of a lifetime of happiness for the two of you . kayla : mr. weston , hi . clyde : dr. brady . kayla : hi . i hear -- i hear that you just went on a tour of the hospital . clyde : i did , yeah . abigail : mr. weston , i have to get back to work now , but it was really nice to see you again . clyde : good to see you . abigail : kayla . kayla : so i also hear through the grapevine that you are maybe gon na give a sizable donation to the hospital . clyde : well , you heard right . the hospital can pretty much count on me doing exactly that . kayla : well , that 's very generous of you . clyde : well , it took me a while to learn , but you do reap what you sow .

[ scoffs ] serena : whoa . you are scared to death , are n't you ? what you so afraid of , nicole ? eric : answer my question . brady : nothing you tell me will leave this room , okay ? it 'll stay between us . i promise . eric : it 's nicole . i 've fallen in love with her again . | eric told nicole that serena possibly knew what happened between them . nicole did n't want to believe that she knew anything . serena tried to get brady to help her find out the truth , but he did n't tell her . paige warned jennifer that jj was with a drug dealer . jennifer appreciated the help . kyle wanted jj to deliver something for him . brady threatened to keep serena from getting her grant if she did n't leave the situation with eric and nicole alone . nicole wondered if eric let something slip that serena picked up on . eric denied it . eric noticed her ring and was visibly disappointed . nicole was determined to keep serena out of her business . serena did n't care for brady 's threat and was convinced someone else is the reason why he 's upset . clyde went to the hospital to check up on abby . kayla was n't sure if abby had feelings for chad . stefano believed that chad and abby were meant for each other . jennifer overheard jj talking about having drug money . | <s>[INST] eric : i 'm telling you , serena knows something , or at least she thinks she 's onto something . nicole : about us in the crawl space ? that 's not possible . eric : i did n't think so either . nicole : she saw us together , but she did n't act suspicious about anything . eric : she said she ran into you after that . nicole : she did . i accused her of stalking me , and then we got in a big fight , but -- eric : yeah , but were you right about that ? was she following us ? nicole : well , even if she was , she did n't act like she overheard us talking about anything or what we were talking about . eric : the only thing she told me is she was tipped off by something that you said . nicole : what ? oh , my god , what -- what could i have said ? brady : if you think i 'm gon na stand here and chitchat with you , forget about it . serena : i heard you . you told daniel that you think eric did something wrong and that he 's troubled by something . but eric 's a good person . what could he have done ? paige : do n't get me wrong , i do n't care even one little bit . but if i were you , i 'd be dead straight worried about jj and his new friend , the drug dealer . jennifer : now , paige , if you mean rory -- paige : rory ? no . this guy makes rory look like an amateur . jj : dude , what -- what are you , paranoid ? paige and i are done . i 've told you that . i could n't care less what she does . now , you recruited me , and now you do n't trust me ? all right , forget it . i 've had enough of this crap . kyle : so i guess i 'll see you around . have a nice life . clyde : miss milbauer ? anne : oh , mr. weston . how nice to see you . clyde : well , thank you . it 's nice to see you too . in fact , i 've been looking for you . anne : mr. burns said you requested a tour of the hospital . clyde : well , the girl in your office said you were down here , and i hope it 's not a bad time , but you 're probably taking a well - deserved break . anne : oh , come on , i do n't mind hard work , mr. weston . and i would do just about anything for the hospital charity 's biggest donor . abigail : [ sighs ] [ knock on door ] kayla : hi , doll . abigail : hi . kayla : how are you doing ? abigail : i 'm great . yeah , it 's aside from being pregnant and not knowing if the baby 's father is the man i love or the guy i despise . stefano : oh , i miss him terribly . [ chuckles ] and samantha does n't even want me to see my grandchildren . chad : do you blame her ? stefano : hey , come on . she 's obviously not in her right mind . she 's bereft without elvis . chad : right . yeah , she 's doing it out of grief , not because she remembers all the stuff that you did to her . stefano : listen , she and elvis fought like tigers , you know ? but in the end , ha ha , they could n't live without each other . in that way ... they were like you and abigail . brady : do you make it a practice to eavesdrop on people 's private conversations ? hmm ? serena : no . but i heard what you said , and because we both care about eric , and i 've noticed something 's been bothering him lately , and you noticed the same thing . brady : serena , maybe what 's bothering him is the fact that the guy who tried to kill him and nicole is still out there . you want to help my brother out ? why do n't you help by helping the police put xander behind bars , hmm ? serena : i told them everything i know . brady : yeah , i 'm sure you have . serena : i know you love your brother , and i know it 's hard to believe , but i do too . brady : oh , you know , serena , save it . we 're gon na get some things straight right now . nicole : no . no , we are okay . eric : and how do you know ? nicole : serena told you she heard me say something , which is not possible . i 've had my guard up with that bitch since i first laid eyes on her . eric : all right , then what did you two talk about ? nicole : well , after i told her what i think of her little diamond - smuggling operation with xander , i walked her through how i would ruin her career . that 's probably why she came to you . [ gasps ] she 's trying to get something on me . she 's fishing . eric : listen , just -- i hope that 's it . she seemed pretty sure about herself . nicole : ha . `` seemed . `` `` seemed `` being the operative word here , right ? she saw us together . she wanted you to believe that she knows something that she could n't possibly know . she wanted you to buy her act so that you would say something that would clue her in . oh , eric . you did n't do that , did you ? jennifer : how do you know what you just told me ? paige : i ca n't -- i ca n't say . i 'm really sorry . i just thought you should know . jennifer : yeah , that -- that my son is hanging out with a drug dealer . yes , his mother should know this ... as much as i wish it was n't true . paige : talk to jj , okay ? jennifer : oh , i 'm gon na talk to jj . but when you saw them together , what were they saying ? paige : no , i ca n't . it 's none of my business . okay ? jennifer : yeah . after everything that happened , you -- you told me this . you do n't know how much i appreciate that . jj : suit yourself . kyle : hey , deveraux . where do you think you 're going ? jj : i thought that -- kyle : sit down . come on , that was just me being careful . you get that , right ? jj : you know i used to do what you do , so how about you stop testing me and we get down to business ? kyle : all right . have you still got that list of your regular customers ? jj : yeah . so ? kyle : so maybe i can buy that list from you , and then maybe we can find some other opportunities to work on together . jj : maybe . kyle : i need you to do something for me . jj : like , when ? kyle : like , now . i 'm kind of booked up with appointments today . i want you to drop off something with my brother . jj : you got a brother ? kyle : yeah , i come from a very large family . you get my drift , right ? jj : all right , you did n't tell me i was gon na be an errand boy . kyle : no , you 're not an errand boy . consider this a favor , a mutual showing of good faith . jj : how so ? kyle : i 'm trusting you with merchandise , and you 're showing me you 're really ready to go back to work by delivering this now . my man . i 'll be in touch . clyde : you see , i 'm thinking of making another donation to the hospital . anne : yes , i heard a rumor about that . i hope you know how much your generosity is appreciated . clyde : well , that 's good to hear . but i do have some questions i need answered . anne : i will do my best . clyde : now , i had a personal interest in that other charity that i helped get off the ground ... anne : mm - hmm . clyde : 'cause , well , that was my daughter 's idea . anne : oh , yes , i know , and what a lovely person ... clyde : jordan . anne : jordan is . what a loss to the hospital , you know , and i assume that you 're worried about what 's happening with the fund now that she 's moved away . but i can assure you , mr. weston , i have gotten deeply involved , and the fund is doing wonderful things for a whole lot of needy people . clyde : i 'm so relieved to hear that . anne : yeah , i mean , i -- jordan 's partner on the project , abigail deveraux , not exactly the brightest bulb in the circuit , you know . clyde : before you go any further ... anne : yeah . clyde : it might interest you to know ... anne : tell me . clyde : that abigail deveraux is living with my son ... anne : mm - hmm . clyde : and someday may just be my daughter - in - law . abigail : aunt kayla , i 'm sorry . i - i did n't mean to snap at you . i know that you 're just trying to help . kayla : you know , baby , when you showed up at my office , it was -- it was obvious that you were blindsided by this pregnancy . and i think now that it 's sunken in that it 's really happening , you 're -- you 're angry . abigail : yeah , i 'm ... well , mostly at myself . kayla : well , you know what ? it 's a good thing you 're getting your feelings out , because you have a big decision to make and you need to know why you 're making it . abigail : well , if you think i 'm getting my life together , why do n't you check back with me when i find out if i 'm carrying chad 's baby ? kayla : and what if it 's ben 's baby ? are you gon na be happy with that ? chad : do n't do that . stop harping on abigail and me . i mean it . stefano : [ chuckles ] i was just speaking the truth . chad : here 's the truth . abigail hates my guts . stefano : you know , samantha felt the same way about elvis . okay ? that kind of passionate hatred , it 's often a cover for a whole other kind of passion . brady : if you 're telling yourself that eric 's having second thoughts about dumping you , then you 're even more delusional than i thought , because he hates you . serena : that does n't mean that i stopped caring about him . brady : serena , find someone else to care about and stay away from my brother . i think i made that perfectly clear back at the apartment , did n't i ? serena : oh , yeah , you did , perfectly clear . brady : but you 're not the kind of girl to give up easy , are ya ? serena : i 'm a journalist . that 's how we are . brady : what 's this i hear about you getting a job around here ? serena : it 's a grant , actually . brady : grant ? is it from the hospital ? 'cause i 'm actually on the board of directors here . and if you think i 'm not gon na step in and make sure you do n't get that grant , then you do n't know me very well . eric : nicole , i swear i did n't say anything that serena could latch on to . nicole : are you sure ? eric : yes , i 'm sure . she pumped me about that night , but i kept turning it back on her and xander ... and how they made that night happen . i did n't say anything about what happened between us . nicole : oh , eric . you are such a great guy . but when it comes to lying , you suck . it just does n't come out naturally , and i 'm sure serena knows that . eric : okay , wait . you were n't there . whatever serena thinks she 's onto , it did not come from me . nicole : well , it did n't come from me either , okay ? no matter what she told you . oh . she 's got to be bluffing . she wanted one of us to say something she could use . eric : well , that 's not going to happen . we 're gon na stick together -- nicole : what ? eric : your ring . nicole : yeah . eric : you and daniel are engaged ? nicole : yes . we are . i do n't know if you 've ever eric : you did n't say anything . nicole : i did n't know . daniel sprung it on me today . that 's -- that 's why i wanted you to stay , so i could tell you . eric : you 're happy about it ? nicole : eric ... you know i am . look , i know we came really close to making love that night , but we talked about this . it meant something different to me than it did to you . eric : i just -- i thought if we did n't die , then , you know , it could be a new beginning for us . nicole : i was terrified , and saying good - bye , it -- eric : i should have married you when i had the chance . nicole : it would n't have worked out . i 'm not your type . [ chuckles ] eric : [ chuckles ] yeah , well , i disagree . but i am happy for you and daniel . and i hope serena does n't ruin this for you . nicole : nothing is gon na ruin this . and if serena tries , i swear to god i will destroy that bitch . serena : i hate to disappoint you , but the hospital does n't have anything to do with the grant offer i got . it comes from the university , so there 's nothing you can do about it . brady : do n't be too sure . i 'm a kiriakis . there 's always something i can do . serena : i wish you would just believe that i still love eric and i want what 's best for him . brady : hmm . is that why you planted those diamonds on my brother and had him mule them out of africa for you , hmm ? serena : you know , even if that were true , then that would mean that i owe eric big - time . and if he 's troubled about something , which you said he was , then i 'm worried about him . brady : what makes you think the very thing that is troubling him is n't you , hmm ? serena : because like you said , he dumped me . he wants nothing to do with me . so whatever 's bothering him , it 's recent . it 's somebody else 's doing . anne : um , you know , i - i was not -- i 'm sorry . i was not trying to say that abigail deveraux was stupid . you know , i think she 's just young and inexperienced . in fact , since i 've taken over the fund - raising and the distribution of the funds , she has been like a right arm to me , you know , very capable . clyde : so glad you feel that way . anne : yeah . okay , so , well , did you want to take that tour now ? clyde : i have got a few questions first . anne : ask away . clyde : you know , i 'm thinking about turning my attention to a different department here at the hospital . anne : oh . clyde : prenatal care . abigail : of course i 'd be happy if the baby is ben 's . how could you even say that ? kayla : i just want you to be honest with me . but more importantly , i want you to be honest with yourself . abigail : i do n't know what you mean . kayla : it 's just that when you talk about chad , i just sense something , and i -- abigail : what ? what ? what exactly are you sensing ? are you sensing how much i hate him or how much i despise him ? i mean , are -- are you -- maybe are you sensing how much it would ruin my life if he is the father of my baby ? kayla : what i sense is that your feelings for chad are unresolved . chad : it 's too late to play cupid . abigail 's living with another guy . stefano : and samantha was married to rafael hernandez . you know , she and elvis caused each other so much pain , and by the time that they finally accepted it ... [ laughs ] that they were meant for each other , you understand ? their time ran out . is that what you want for yourself , huh ? huh ? and abigail , hmm ? jj : agent watts , please . hey , i just got back from seeing kyle . he had me deliver a package to a guy he said was his brother , and that guy gave me an envelope . it 's drug money . what do i do with it ? okay , so i 'm gon na give the package to kyle like i 'm supposed to . but you and i have to meet , 'cause you need to tell me what to do next . okay , good . mom ? jennifer : jj , what have you gotten yourself into now ? eric : i get a little worried when you start talking about destroying someone . nicole : i know how to handle serena , okay . but you and i are the only two people who know what we did -- almost did . and we 're not gon na say anything to anyone , right ? eric : right . nicole : things will be fine . [ chuckles ] eric : i hope so ... because the person who has the most to lose is you . i care about you , and i always will . congratulations . nicole : thank you . okay , serena ... you 're next . anne : prenatal care . clyde : right . anne : oh , it 's interesting . clyde : my late wife , god rest her soul , she was carrying a child when she passed . anne : oh . clyde : our son died with her . anne : oh , and there were complications during pregnancy ... clyde : oh , no , no , no . anne : that caused her death . clyde : no , she was a passenger in a pickup truck , and the driver lost control of the vehicle , and it smashed into a tree . anne : i 'm so sorry . you know , i 'm -- i 'm still not quite making the connection to the prenatal care . clyde : well , you see , she was on her way ... anne : mm - hmm . clyde : to get one of those tests that you give women who want to know if the baby 's okay . anne : oh , yeah . clyde : but for some reason , they made her wait until she was far enough along so it was safe for the baby . anne : oh , yeah , it must have been and amniocentesis . clyde : i do n't know . it was n't really important to me back then , but she really wanted that test , you know ... anne : yeah . clyde : to make sure that the baby was healthy . so i was thinking that maybe i could honor her memory by donating money so women who ca n't afford those tests could get them . anne : that 's lovely , really , and very generous . clyde : i 'd like to see that department when you show me around . anne : absolutely . we can , in fact , go on the tour right now . clyde : great . anne : yeah ? clyde : yeah . anne : okay , great . mr. weston . clyde : mm - hmm . chad : i 'd be a little more choked up by your concern about abigail and me missing out on our true happiness if i did n't really know it was about you and what you 're missing out on . yeah ? the property that abigail stands to inherit . stefano : you 're wrong , son . it is about wanting you to be with the woman that you love . and i will do everything , everything to help you make that happen . kayla : you know , you are my only concern . and i know this pregnancy was a shock . and i also know that you are going through a really difficult time . abigail : yes . yes , i am . you could say that . kayla : that 's why i said i want you to be honest with your feelings . abigail : i am . kayla : when we do this paternity test , i just want you to be prepared that you may not get the results that you 're looking for . abigail : well , i -- i 'm gon na find out the truth , and then maybe i can wake up from this nightmare .

[ door closes ] wyatt : yeah , liam . what -- how you doing ? liam : oh , let 's see . before or after your mother paid me a little visit the other night ? wyatt : what ? liam : yeah . imagine my shock . open the door , there stands quinn . wyatt : wait , she came here ? ! liam : yeah . bigger shock -- i let her go . wyatt : what ? ! why ? ! a - after everything she did to you ? ! why ? ! liam : i do n't know , dude . i do n't know . maybe 'cause she 's your mom , or maybe ... maybe 'cause i was so angry , i did n't know what i would do . wyatt : does dad know ? liam : yeah . but like i told him , i 'm not thinking about quinn right now . my focus is on steffy . steffy : quinn showed up at liam 's , and he just let her leave ? bill : apparently he thought he might kill her . but that 's not why i 'm here . steffy : why are you here ? bill : wyatt told me you got one of these , as well . steffy : what do you think ? bill : what i think , what i hope , is that every time you look at this tattoo , it will remind you who you 're married to and that wyatt always has to come first . steffy : you 're not very subtle . bill : ever known me to be ? steffy : no . no , you always call things the way you see them . bill : and the way i see this is a beautiful , young woman who married my son , made vows , and is suddenly confronted with something she never anticipated . steffy : [ sighs ] you understand . bill : you thought liam was out of your life , only to have him reappear right after you and wyatt we d . i can only imagine how conflicted you feel . steffy : [ sighs ] bill : but , steffy ? you and wyatt are married . your commitment is to each other . your commitment is to wyatt and only wyatt . you ca n't think about liam . wyatt : okay , we 've been through all this , bro . steffy is my wife , and i have repeatedly asked you to respect that . liam : we both know it 's not that simple . wyatt : for you , maybe not . but for steffy ? she really has moved on , liam . liam : okay , what are you saying right now ? are -- are you saying that steffy does n't care about me anymore ? wyatt : no . no . i would never say that . but as her husband -- liam : okay , can we not do the `` lay down the law `` thing right now ? wyatt : no ! no ! because i realize how much damage my mother caused you , and i feel bad about it ! and i hate that it happened to you , all right ? ! but , in time , if you let yourself , you can get past all this . you 'll -- you 'll find someone else ! you 'll -- you 'll -- you could create an amazing life with them . it will happen , bro . but only if -- if you stop hanging on to something that never will . caroline : i 'm gon na say this again . the decision should have been ridge 's and mine . katie : if or when you tell thomas that he has a son ? caroline : there is so much more at stake here than you even realize , katie . katie : i can see the guilt eating away at you . how long did you think it would go on like this ? watching thomas every day interacting with his son and not saying anything ? caroline : we may have told him eventually . or not . but it was our decision , and to be backed into a corner like this ... katie : i understand that you 're upset . i understand that you 're scared . you 're worried about your family . but i have seen thomas with douglas . he 's in love with that boy . and yes , finding out that he 's the father is going to be a shock and there probably will be fallout , but in the long run , this is best for everyone . for you , for ridge , for thomas ... and for his son . thomas : my child . douglas is my child ? ridge : no . douglas is my child . from your night with caroline . a night that never should have happened . steffy : [ voice breaking ] you make it sound so easy . bill : no , i - i know it 's not easy for you or for liam . you married his brother , who i know you love . steffy : of course i do . you have to understand how ha -- bill : i do understand . more than you know . i was at your wedding to wyatt . i saw how happy you both were , how committed he is to you . this ... is a symbol of that commitment , that you 're going to work at your marriage , give it your all . now , i know you take that very seriously . i hope that you do . because one thing i can not have , steffy , are my two sons battling each other for you . liam : you just have all the answers , do n't you ? wyatt : wh -- [ sighs ] hardly . i - i 'm just trying to bring a little perspective to all this . liam : yeah , wyatt . your perspective . obviously i see things differently . wyatt : well , because you ca n't let it go ! liam : i will not let it go ! steffy and i were robbed ! wyatt : wow . is that how you think she feels about all this ? liam : [ sighs ] wyatt : because it seems to me is she 's very happy being married to me . liam : you know my history with steffy . you know how powerful that history is . wyatt : was ! was , liam . like i keep saying , you ca n't just turn back the clock . things are different now . steffy is my wife . we 've pledged our lives together . and she 's made it very clear how she feels . liam : fyi -- it 's gon na take more than a tattoo to get me to back off . steffy and i -- steffy and i had a future together . your mother took that future from me and gave it to you . wyatt : wait . hold on a second . are you saying that i was in on that with her or what ? liam : i 'm not -- no . i 'm not -- i 'm past that , all right ? i 'm past that . but she did give you a very real advantage by removing me from the equation . so what am i supposed to do , wyatt ? i 'm doing the only thing i can . i 'm fighting back for the woman i love . caroline : i should be in there with ridge . i mean , he should n't be having to do this alone , facing thomas and seeing him , seeing how hurt and betrayed he is . if you had just stayed out of this , katie . if you would have just stayed out of it ! katie : i 'm not the enemy here , caroline . i had no idea that a simple conversation with dr . wolin at a restaurant would lead to this . and i 'm not judging . but i can see that you 're struggling . and as a mother , i know that there is a natural draw to the father of your child . not that i would say that you want to be with thomas instead of ridge . i would never say that . but you now have a connection to thomas ... because of douglas . ridge : i know , do n't i ? i know . thomas : [ sighs deeply ] ridge : it 's a lot , hmm ? but there 's a few things we got to get clear from the very beginning . thomas : look , i get it . douglas is my son . ridge : no , he 's not your son . he 's my son . thomas : i - i 'm sorry . you just said that the night that i spent with caroline -- ridge : the night you spent with caroline , the night that never should have happened , the night you betrayed me . thomas : i know you love douglas , and i know how much that little boy means to you . but he is your grandson . not your son . douglas is mine . caroline : do we really need to do this right now ? katie : i 'm sorry . i know how difficult this must be for you . caroline : ridge and thomas have had a strained relationship for years . i mean , there 's been tension for a long time . katie : and you think that thomas is gon na freak out ... caroline : yeah ! katie : ... when he finds out that you 've been keeping the truth from him ? caroline : how could he not , katie ? katie : i 'm sure that ridge will handle it as sensitively as possible . caroline : i do n't even know how he 's gon na find the words . i ... katie : at least there wo n't be any more secrets about douglas or about thomas and what happened that night . caroline : that night was a mistake , and it should have never happened ! katie : how did it happen ? because i know that you and ridge love each other and you were loyal to him . caroline : [ voice breaking ] ridge and douglas mean absolutely everything to me . and if this goes badly , if this goes badly , katie , my whole life falls apart . thomas : douglas -- he 's my son . no , he 's -- he 's your grandson . ridge : no , that 's where you 're wrong . but look around you . look at this great opportunity you have here . and i will support you 100 % . thomas : just -- just not as a father to your son . ridge : we understand each other . thomas : are you serious ? no , we do n't understand each other at all ! you expect me to give up my flesh -- ridge : what i expect , thomas , is for you to put douglas ' welfare , the welfare of this family , above your own . if this scandal comes out , dad has to fire me , steffy , caroline , fire you for what you did to her . and rick would take over . and this family as we know it would cease to exist . well , i 'm not gon na allow that to happen . and i 'm not gon na allow you or anyone else to destroy my family with caroline . so how about now , thomas ?

wyatt : no ! no ! because i realize how much damage my mother caused you , and i feel bad about it ! and i hate that it happened to you , all right ? ! but , in time , if you let yourself , you can get past all this . you 'll -- you 'll find someone else ! you 'll -- you 'll -- you could create an amazing life with them . it will happen , bro . but only if -- if you stop hanging on to something that never will . caroline : i 'm gon na say this again . the decision should have been ridge 's and mine . katie : if or when you tell thomas that he has a son ? caroline : there is so much more at stake here than you even realize , katie . katie : i can see the guilt eating away at you . how long did you think it would go on like this ? watching thomas every day interacting with his son and not saying anything ? caroline : we may have told him eventually . or not . but it was our decision , and to be backed into a corner like this ... katie : i understand that you 're upset . i understand that you 're scared . you 're worried about your family . but i have seen thomas with douglas . he 's in love with that boy . and yes , finding out that he 's the father is going to be a shock and there probably will be fallout , but in the long run , this is best for everyone . for you , for ridge , for thomas ... and for his son . thomas : my child . douglas is my child ? ridge : no . douglas is my child . from your night with caroline . a night that never should have happened . steffy : [ voice breaking ] you make it sound so easy . bill : no , i - i know it 's not easy for you or for liam . you married his brother , who i know you love . steffy : of course i do . you have to understand how ha -- bill : i do understand . more than you know . i was at your wedding to wyatt . i saw how happy you both were , how committed he is to you . this ... is a symbol of that commitment , that you 're going to work at your marriage , give it your all . now , i know you take that very seriously . i hope that you do . because one thing i can not have , steffy , are my two sons battling each other for you . liam : you just have all the answers , do n't you ? wyatt : wh -- [ sighs ] hardly . i - i 'm just trying to bring a little perspective to all this . liam : yeah , wyatt . your perspective . obviously i see things differently . wyatt : well , because you ca n't let it go ! liam : i will not let it go ! steffy and i were robbed ! wyatt : wow . is that how you think she feels about all this ? liam : [ sighs ] wyatt : because it seems to me is she 's very happy being married to me . liam : you know my history with steffy . you know how powerful that history is . wyatt : was ! was , liam . like i keep saying , you ca n't just turn back the clock . things are different now . steffy is my wife . we 've pledged our lives together . and she 's made it very clear how she feels . liam : fyi -- it 's gon na take more than a tattoo to get me to back off . steffy and i -- steffy and i had a future together . your mother took that future from me and gave it to you . wyatt : wait . hold on a second . are you saying that i was in on that with her or what ? liam : i 'm not -- no . i 'm not -- i 'm past that , all right ? i 'm past that . but she did give you a very real advantage by removing me from the equation . so what am i supposed to do , wyatt ? i 'm doing the only thing i can . i 'm fighting back for the woman i love . caroline : i should be in there with ridge . i mean , he should n't be having to do this alone , facing thomas and seeing him , seeing how hurt and betrayed he is . if you had just stayed out of this , katie . if you would have just stayed out of it ! katie : i 'm not the enemy here , caroline . i had no idea that a simple conversation with dr . wolin at a restaurant would lead to this . and i 'm not judging . but i can see that you 're struggling . and as a mother , i know that there is a natural draw to the father of your child . not that i would say that you want to be with thomas instead of ridge . i would never say that . but you now have a connection to thomas ... because of douglas . ridge : i know , do n't i ? i know . thomas : [ sighs deeply ] ridge : it 's a lot , hmm ? but there 's a few things we got to get clear from the very beginning . thomas : look , i get it . douglas is my son . ridge : no , he 's not your son . he 's my son . thomas : i - i 'm sorry . you just said that the night that i spent with caroline -- ridge : the night you spent with caroline , the night that never should have happened , the night you betrayed me . thomas : i know you love douglas , and i know how much that little boy means to you . but he is your grandson . not your son . douglas is mine . caroline : do we really need to do this right now ? katie : i 'm sorry . i know how difficult this must be for you . caroline : ridge and thomas have had a strained relationship for years . i mean , there 's been tension for a long time . katie : and you think that thomas is gon na freak out ... caroline : yeah ! katie : ... when he finds out that you 've been keeping the truth from him ? caroline : how could he not , katie ? katie : i 'm sure that ridge will handle it as sensitively as possible . caroline : i do n't even know how he 's gon na find the words . i ... katie : at least there wo n't be any more secrets about douglas or about thomas and what happened that night . caroline : that night was a mistake , and it should have never happened ! katie : how did it happen ? because i know that you and ridge love each other and you were loyal to him . caroline : [ voice breaking ] ridge and douglas mean absolutely everything to me . and if this goes badly , if this goes badly , katie , my whole life falls apart . thomas : douglas -- he 's my son . no , he 's -- he 's your grandson . ridge : no , that 's where you 're wrong . but look around you . look at this great opportunity you have here . and i will support you 100 % . thomas : just -- just not as a father to your son . ridge : we understand each other . thomas : are you serious ? no , we do n't understand each other at all ! you expect me to give up my flesh -- ridge : what i expect , thomas , is for you to put douglas ' welfare , the welfare of this family , above your own . if this scandal comes out , dad has to fire me , steffy , caroline , fire you for what you did to her . and rick would take over . and this family as we know it would cease to exist . well , i 'm not gon na allow that to happen . and i 'm not gon na allow you or anyone else to destroy my family with caroline . so how about now , thomas ? do we understand each other now ? [ seagulls calling ] liam : will you marry me , steffy ? liam : [ sighs ] steffy : you okay ? liam : i almost lost myself . i do n't want to lose you . steffy : i honestly do n't know how you controlled yourself . liam : me , either . steffy : quinn just showing up like this and saying those things ? it 's crazy . liam : yeah , well , you know . [ chuckles ] that 's quinn . but i do n't -- i really do n't want to talk about her . i 'd rather talk about you and me . so , the last time you were here , you , um ... [ sighs ] yeah . there was a part of me that was hoping you maybe had it removed or something . steffy : liam , please . liam : i know . no . i know . you took vows . you committed yourself to wyatt . i ... i know . but it was under false pretenses . quinn -- quinn ripped my life away from me and -- and replaced it with this ... bizarre fantasy of hers . and yet -- and yet the whole time , steffy , the whole time , i could feel ... the gravity of you pulling me in . and now i 'm home , and you 're married to my brother , and you know i ca n't accept that . you know i ca n't , not -- not when i know you that love me just as much as you ever have . i feel it every time i 'm with you . leave wyatt . get the tattoo removed . and come home to me . caroline : so i take you , ridge forrester , to have and to hold , to be my husband . thomas : caroline , we made love . caroline : no , no , no , no , no , no , no , no , no , no , no ! i just wanted to have a child , and now i have one growing inside of me , and i want it . ridge : caroline , i 'm gon na love that kid with everything that i have . thomas is not gon na be part of that life . he 's not gon na be anywhere near that kid . thomas : why am i just now learning about this ? ridge : i was n't gon na tell you at all . because , to you , it was a terrible mistake , the biggest mistake of your life . but i was there when he was born . i cut his cord , held him , loved him , and named him . he 's my son . completely my son . thomas : no . no . no , no , he 's not . ridge : i know him as my son ! the family , caroline , the whole world knows him as my son ! thomas : and to hell with what i know now ? ridge : if you truly changed like you say you 've changed , you 'll understand this is the only way . thomas : what way ? what exactly are you saying ? ridge : douglas is my son , caroline is his mother , and those are the only parents he 's ever gon na know . and i will care for him . i will love him , i will protect him , the same way that i cared for you , protected you . that 's how it 's gon na be . do we understand each other ?Summarize.[/INST]thomas faces ridge and says he can not believe it that douglas is his son . katie tells caroline that she can not possibly think douglas will go through his entire life and not know he is thomas 's son . wyatt drops in on wyatt and is absolutely shocked that quinn had been there and liam just let her go . he says yeah , but his focus is not on quinn but on steffy . bill drops in on steffy and looks at her tattoo ring and reminds her that means wyatt is # 1 and should always be . she says he is not subtle . he says she finds herself married to one son and then the other son re - appears , but she took vows and she has a commitment to wyatt and only wyatt . she says he makes it sound so easy but it is not . he says he knows but she needs to give it her all . he can not stand to see his two sons battle it out over her . wyatt reminds liam that steffy has moved on . yes she still cares for liam . and he hates what happened to liam by his mother but in time he can get past all of this and make a new life with someone else . but only if he stops hanging on to something that can not be . caroline tells katie there is so much more at stake here than she is realizing , but it was her and ridge 's decision and they are being backed into a corner . katie says still it is the best decision to tell thomas and douglas . ridge tells thomas that no , douglas is his child . that night should have never happened . liam tells wyatt that he can not let it go ; he and steffy were robbed . wyatt says steffy is his wife and they can not turn back the clock now . liam says it will take more than a tattoo ring for him to back off . he is fighting for the woman he loves . katie tells caroline that she is not judging and she had no idea talking to the doctor at the restaurant would lead to this . she now has a connection to thomas because of douglas ; she needs to think about that . she knows how difficult this is for her . and at least there will not be any more secrets . caroline says that night never should have happened and now her whole life is ruined .</s> | 405 |

hope : well , i do n't think ciara thinks or feels that it ended well , and since you left , almost immediately after you were done berating her , you did n't hear that she was n't the one who found the earring . it was theo . sami : theo ? hope : yeah , he gave it to her as a present . sami : okay , well , either way , she was hiding the earring in her backpack , she had it , and she was totally stonewalling me . hope : all you had to do was just wait until i got back . she 's a child , sami . sami : hope , you 're right , okay ? i was thinking about the earring , i was thinking about having to explain it to ej , i was upset , i was wrong . hope : i mean , you were also careless about a $ 30,000 earring ? my god . when did you lose that , anyway ? sami : it does n't matter now . i mean , the point is theo or ciara , whoever found it , they found it , and that 's the most important thing , right ? the point is i got it back . hope : no , no , the point is where theo found it . he picked it up by walker falls , right across the river from big rock . sonny : so now we know that we have to be very careful around ej . if lucas did n't show up , i would 've told him everything . gabi : well , thank god he did . sonny : but if ej did find out , i would remind him that i kept my mouth shut about the video of sami and bernardi . gabi : sami was trying to save rafe , sonny . sonny : gabi , you said nick was gon na rape you . you did n't mean to kill him . gabi : [ sighs ] okay , you need to understand , okay , that at the river , when we were putting nick 's body into the water , he opened his eyes , okay ? and not only that , but he reached out and grabbed sami 's arm and tried to pull her in with him . sonny : he was a peach of a guy to the very end , all right ? but you three are very lucky . gabi : [ scoffs ] lucky . sonny : yeah , you 're lucky that no one saw you . people hike up there all the time . gabi : well , i mean , there was this one guy , a bird watcher , but we do n't think he knows anything . sonny : what do you mean you do n't thin gabi : well , he acted like he did n't know anything , and we saw him the next day at the horton town square and he was just real friendly . sonny : okay , well , if he saw you dump nick 's body , i doubt he 'd be real friendly . gabi : too friendly . weird friendly . sonny : and you 're sure it was the same guy ? gabi : positive . i mean , he 's got this english accent and he says hello in a very strange way . `` greetings . `` and -- and it was like he was looking for us . sonny : i think you 're being a little paranoid , all right ? i 'm sure this is just a big coincidence . gabi : okay . will : all right . who 's ready for some photos ? gabi : let 's just hope it 's not a mug shot . sami : well , that does n't make sense . what was theo doing down by walker falls ? hope : well , abe took him for a hike . he did n't tell abe what he found . he just gave it to ciara . so i do n't know , i guess the question is what were you doing wearing $ 30,000 earrings in a secluded place by the river ? sami : well , i was n't . i mean , i did n't . i must have lost it in town somewhere and someone else took it there . hope : so they were lost ... twice ? huh . someone finds an obscenely expensive piece of jewelry and drops it by the river ? sami : well , give me another explanation that makes sense . 3q septic system breakdowns affect over 1 million homes a year , eric : you want to talk to me ? nicole : yes , i just had a meeting with my producer , and even though he is sleazy , he did make a really good point about putting you on camera . eric : and we 've already been over this . the church does not want me to give any interviews . nicole : what ? that 's like saying they do n't want you to clear your name . you have to get out there and defend yourself or people are gon na wonder why you 're keeping quiet . eric : yeah , well , i ca n't control what people think . facts are what matter . nicole : if you do n't think public perception is important , then you are being naive . you have a tool to clear your name , and you 're letting your pals at the church take it from your hands . eric : that 's not how it works . nicole : oh , really ? then what is it they 're giving you in return ? eric : they 're giving me a chance to get back what really matters to me . my job . my vocation . my life . daniel : all right , let me ask you this . say we do identify what was in eric brady 's blood -- which is clearly a pretty sophisticated poison -- what is the next step in trying to connect it to whoever concocted it ? what i 'm asking is how do we find this son of a bitch ? chyka : i 'm packing now . of course , i should steer clear of the states . kristen dimera would insist , in fact . but she 's nowhere to be found and your offer is too lucrative to pass up . i 'll be on the next flight . sami : hope , i think you need to talk to the person who found my earring in the first place because i do n't know what else to say . hope : honey , we 're family . this is n't like it 's official . just talking , that 's all . although i would say that if a witness tried to sell me this story , i would n't buy it for a second . all of my instincts are telling me there 's a lot more to the story than you are sharing with me . ej : okay , samantha gene brady , what the hell have you been doing down here ? jordan : nothing 's going on . i - i dropped off ari 's presents and that dumb , little tree . rafe : well , it 's not a dumb tree . it is little , yes , but i like it . jordan : and now i 've done that , i 've seen your castle , so now i should go . rafe : seriously ?

[ doorbell rings ] sami : harold , i got it . i 'm right here , okay ? hope : hey , hi . sami : aunt hope , hi . hope : hi . sami : uh , where 's ciara ? hope : abe 's watching her for a little bit . i thought we ought to talk . sami : i 'm so sorry , i 'm in the middle of some business -- hope : this wo n't take long . it 's about the earring . sami : is n't it all 's well that ends well ? hope : well , i do n't think ciara thinks or feels that it ended well , and since you left , almost immediately after you were done berating her , you did n't hear that she was n't the one who found the earring . it was theo . sami : theo ? hope : yeah , he gave it to her as a present . sami : okay , well , either way , she was hiding the earring in her backpack , she had it , and she was totally stonewalling me . hope : all you had to do was just wait until i got back . she 's a child , sami . sami : hope , you 're right , okay ? i was thinking about the earring , i was thinking about having to explain it to ej , i was upset , i was wrong . hope : i mean , you were also careless about a $ 30,000 earring ? my god . when did you lose that , anyway ? sami : it does n't matter now . i mean , the point is theo or ciara , whoever found it , they found it , and that 's the most important thing , right ? the point is i got it back . hope : no , no , the point is where theo found it . he picked it up by walker falls , right across the river from big rock . sonny : so now we know that we have to be very careful around ej . if lucas did n't show up , i would 've told him everything . gabi : well , thank god he did . sonny : but if ej did find out , i would remind him that i kept my mouth shut about the video of sami and bernardi . gabi : sami was trying to save rafe , sonny . sonny : gabi , you said nick was gon na rape you . you did n't mean to kill him . gabi : [ sighs ] okay , you need to understand , okay , that at the river , when we were putting nick 's body into the water , he opened his eyes , okay ? and not only that , but he reached out and grabbed sami 's arm and tried to pull her in with him . sonny : he was a peach of a guy to the very end , all right ? but you three are very lucky . gabi : [ scoffs ] lucky . sonny : yeah , you 're lucky that no one saw you . people hike up there all the time . gabi : well , i mean , there was this one guy , a bird watcher , but we do n't think he knows anything . sonny : what do you mean you do n't thin gabi : well , he acted like he did n't know anything , and we saw him the next day at the horton town square and he was just real friendly . sonny : okay , well , if he saw you dump nick 's body , i doubt he 'd be real friendly . gabi : too friendly . weird friendly . sonny : and you 're sure it was the same guy ? gabi : positive . i mean , he 's got this english accent and he says hello in a very strange way . `` greetings . `` and -- and it was like he was looking for us . sonny : i think you 're being a little paranoid , all right ? i 'm sure this is just a big coincidence . gabi : okay . will : all right . who 's ready for some photos ? gabi : let 's just hope it 's not a mug shot . sami : well , that does n't make sense . what was theo doing down by walker falls ? hope : well , abe took him for a hike . he did n't tell abe what he found . he just gave it to ciara . so i do n't know , i guess the question is what were you doing wearing $ 30,000 earrings in a secluded place by the river ? sami : well , i was n't . i mean , i did n't . i must have lost it in town somewhere and someone else took it there . hope : so they were lost ... twice ? huh . someone finds an obscenely expensive piece of jewelry and drops it by the river ? sami : well , give me another explanation that makes sense . 3q septic system breakdowns affect over 1 million homes a year , eric : you want to talk to me ? nicole : yes , i just had a meeting with my producer , and even though he is sleazy , he did make a really good point about putting you on camera . eric : and we 've already been over this . the church does not want me to give any interviews . nicole : what ? that 's like saying they do n't want you to clear your name . you have to get out there and defend yourself or people are gon na wonder why you 're keeping quiet . eric : yeah , well , i ca n't control what people think . facts are what matter . nicole : if you do n't think public perception is important , then you are being naive . you have a tool to clear your name , and you 're letting your pals at the church take it from your hands . eric : that 's not how it works . nicole : oh , really ? then what is it they 're giving you in return ? eric : they 're giving me a chance to get back what really matters to me . my job . my vocation . my life . daniel : all right , let me ask you this . say we do identify what was in eric brady 's blood -- which is clearly a pretty sophisticated poison -- what is the next step in trying to connect it to whoever concocted it ? what i 'm asking is how do we find this son of a bitch ? chyka : i 'm packing now . of course , i should steer clear of the states . kristen dimera would insist , in fact . but she 's nowhere to be found and your offer is too lucrative to pass up . i 'll be on the next flight . sami : hope , i think you need to talk to the person who found my earring in the first place because i do n't know what else to say . hope : honey , we 're family . this is n't like it 's official . just talking , that 's all . although i would say that if a witness tried to sell me this story , i would n't buy it for a second . all of my instincts are telling me there 's a lot more to the story than you are sharing with me . ej : okay , samantha gene brady , what the hell have you been doing down here ? jordan : nothing 's going on . i - i dropped off ari 's presents and that dumb , little tree . rafe : well , it 's not a dumb tree . it is little , yes , but i like it . jordan : and now i 've done that , i 've seen your castle , so now i should go . rafe : seriously ?

jordan : no . rafe : it was a joke . it 's a joke . [ stammering ] you get it ? jordan : okay , what i was going to say is ... rafe , it 's the holidays . you have friends , family that you want to spend time with , and maybe i should give you some space until , you know , after new year 's . rafe : wait , wait , hold on a second . do n't you get it ? huh ? i do n't want space . i want to be with you . eric : nicole , i know you 're trying to help me , but there are limits . father matt 's been great to me . we 've been meeting on a regular basis , helping me deal with the suspension , and i 'm not gon na go against his wishes . nicole : look , this is n't just making your heart break , but also your mother 's and your sister 's -- eric : nicole , i know that . i also know that i 'm exhausted , and we can have this debate at another time . nicole : [ sighs ] eric : by the way , i meant what i said . i 'm happy for both you and daniel . lucas : it is beginning to look a lot like christmas . i 'm gon na go get a number , a ticket thing . i 'll be right back . will : okay . my gosh , these things are so cheesy . but i like 'em . sonny : i do n't know . elves make me nervous . i do n't trust 'em . they do have really nice shoes . look at them . will : i guess so . sonny : yeah . will : hello . hi . say hi to great - grandma . kate : [ gasps ] coal in your stocking , coal in your stocking . she looks so adorable . will : i know . lucas : you know what , the line 's not that bad this year , and i think -- actually , i think that is santa claus . look at that guy . will : [ chuckles ] great . ok , come on . kate : so ... all is quiet on the western front . gabi : huh ? kate : that means i talked to sami , she said everything 's fine , which means we have nothing to worry about . sami : hope , look , i 'm sorry . okay ? i understand that you are still angry for the way that i treated ciara and ... and i apologize again for that . but that does n't make me a suspect . right ? and , i mean , put yourself in my shoes . let 's say you had something that meant so much to you that uncle bo had given you . if you lost it , would n't you go a little crazy too ? that does n't make me guilty of anything . hope : i never said it did . sami : oh -- well , you -- hope : i 'm so sorry . i think we 're both overreacting a little bit today . holidays can do that to us , ca n't it ? all the shopping and wrapping . sami : [ laughs ] it can get crazy , yes . and maybe for you , you 're just , you know , all keyed up knowing uncle bo is coming home soon . he 's not coming back ? hope : i ca n't really get into that , but no , he 's -- he 's not coming back . and i do n't know how i 'm gon na tell ciara about that . sami : oh , my god , i 'm -- now i feel really horrible . i 'm s -- i 'm so sorry . that poor kid . ej : needle in a bloody haystack would be easier than this . i do n't even know what i 'm looking for .

eve : meaning if your father 's abuse scarred you so much that you ca n't accept my apology for unintentionally leaving you at his mercy , then how is it that you can accept t.c . into your bed night after night ? liz : oh , please . one has nothing to do with the other . rebecca : now , how am i going to get eve alone so i can poison her ? ah ! eve : exactly , liz . rebecca : excuse me . excuse me . father lonigan is about to begin the ceremony , so why do n't we go upstairs and have a seat , ok ?

'cause you 're tough . you never quit , vick , not ever . that 's why i know you 're not gon na just keep lying there like this , 'cause it 's not who you are . and if you do stay like this , i 'm gon na invite elliot to come see you . which may not be a bad thing . he might hook you up with some free underwear or something . this is n't who you are . show me how tough you are . wake up . you can do it . i know you can . just show me .

[ scene_break ] jana : ( sighs ) you 're awfully quiet . are you mad at me ? phyllis : no . i 'm not mad . i just need to be alone . jana : look , i know it 's hard to hear bad things about the people you care about . trust me , kevin has to go through that all the time with me . phyllis : jack is a very complicated man , that 's all . jana : i - i do n't mean to focus on him , but i was seeing kevin at the time and ... i remember how upset gloria was about the will being changed . phyllis : there is no proof that jack was behind that . jana : believe what you want , but he hated her and he had everything to gain . phyllis : like what ? he does n't need money . jana : so he did n't want gloria to have it either . that would mean she 'd be a part of his life , a part of his family . that would 've driven him crazy . he 'd do anything to prevent that from happening . phyllis : um , you know what ? i - i need to -- to , um ... use the ladies room . excuse me . phyllis : hey , um ... excuse me ? can i see the chaplain ? just for a second . [ scene_break ] nick : so you know who i was thinking about ? elliot robinson . i know , i know , if you were awake , you 'd hit me and tell me how much you hated the guy , but you got ta admit , with the glasses and the lisp , dude was quite a catch . i heard he 's in ladies ' underwear now . selling 'em , not -- not wearing 'em . i think . anyway , you know why i brought him up ? do you remember the time we rode our bikes up to mason lake ? yeah , we -- we were riding up there and i was way ahead of you two , because ... well , 'cause i was awesome . and you guys crashed your bikes . yeah , elliot busted his leg , and you sprained your ankle and fractured your wrist . and you walked up to me , it must 've been like a mile , in pain . 'cause you 're tough . you never quit , vick , not ever . that 's why i know you 're not gon na just keep lying there like this , 'cause it 's not who you are . and if you do stay like this , i 'm gon na invite elliot to come see you . which may not be a bad thing . he might hook you up with some free underwear or something . this is n't who you are . show me how tough you are . wake up . you can do it . i know you can . just show me .

[ scene_break ] victor : i guess i 've come here because i need help . i 've made a lot of money in my life , but i do have my limitations . and now more than anything i 'm trying to save my daughter 's life . and i 'm trying to find those who are responsible for the disaster that caused her to be unconscious . i wan na do anything possible to save her life . i guess i need some help . that 's why i 'm here . so ... ( exhales ) i 'm not the most humble of men . victor : but when something like this happens to your own child ... and you ca n't do anything about it ... you appeal to a higher power . [ scene_break ] chaplain : i 'm glad you called . phyllis : yeah . chaplain : a tragedy of this magnitude can be difficult to process alone . phyllis : yeah , it 's -- it 's interesting . you really find out what someone 's capable of in times of stress . chaplain : was your husband trapped for an extended period of time ? phyllis : well , he felt like it was a long time , definitely . jack was trapped for a very long time . he did n't think he was gon na make it . chaplain : an experience like that can change a person , make them reevaluate their life , their relationships , their goals . phyllis : yeah . it 's ironic because john went through the same thing . chaplain : how do you mean ? phyllis : well , you know , he was here and he was reevaluating his life , obviously . i mean , he was married to gloria , and everybody thought he was madly in love , but ... you know , when the will came out , he cut her -- he cut her out completely . chaplain : i do n't see how that 's relevant to this situation . phyllis : well , i 'm -- i 'm just saying that , um , that john would be very , very proud of his son jack . [ scene_break ] jack : you have got to be kidding me ! no . look , i 'll -- i 'll talk to you later , okay ? that was my lawyer . apparently , the tests they ran on fisher 's hair were not as specific as the detective wanted us to think . the only thing that 's been proved conclusively is it came from a dog with yellow hair . sharon : so it was n't a dna . test ? jack : no , they have no evidence at all that that hair came from my dog . sharon : wow . they have completely misrepresented the evidence . jack : yeah . meantime , i have been outed publicly as a suspect in a homicide without any evidence .

[ dramatic music ] kate : well , it turns out that , um , xander was only the muscle . he has a partner in crime . oh ! oh ! oh ! sonny : okay , so , we just established a new tradition . will : you know , i happen to think that walking arm in arm across the threshold is much more romantic anyway . but -- but seriously . i totally could 've carried you . you know that , right ?

[ suspenseful music ] kate : everything . wow . clearly , you have inherited your father 's appetite . is that why you have your eye on his company ? i mean , i assume that 's why nicole , you know , was hired at dimera enterprises , right ? kristen : yeah , well , unfortunately , stefan just fired nicole , without cause . ted : wait , please wait . if you want to go after your brother , please , do n't let us stop you . kate : there is nothing that ted and i would like to see more than for stefan to go down , absolutely , you do n't have to worry about us , because we would keep your secret . we would never let anyone know you 're alive . kristen : well -- well , right . [ laughs ] pew ! ted : oh . kristen : just having a little fun . you know , i do appreciate the vote of confidence , but i am afraid your stay here has already been overextended . thanks to some apparent , clearly misplaced affection for ted , hope brady has been snooping around for answers . and despite your assurance , cynical me , i just do n't trust the two of you to keep your mouths shut . i had counted on xander killing you both , but unfortunately , he did n't have the nerve to shoot you , but guess what !

[ laughs ] i knew it ! you lied to me ! xander : i was famished . kristen : mm - hmm . you expect me to believe that all this food was for you ? the patron saint of 3 % body fat ? you obviously were going to bring it to ted and kate after we agreed to let them starve to death . xander : that was before i talked to sarah . and she explained how painful it would be in gruesome detail . kristen : oh , my god . you ... you 're telling me you allowed your little bed buddy to talk you out of it ? xander : she is a highly respected physician . kristen : i do n't believe this . you took a shot at eric , ended up putting a bullet into marlena , but sarah horton gets into your head , and now you 're losing your edge .

[ dramatic music ] kate : well , it turns out that , um , xander was only the muscle . he has a partner in crime . oh ! oh ! oh ! sonny : okay , so , we just established a new tradition . will : you know , i happen to think that walking arm in arm across the threshold is much more romantic anyway . but -- but seriously . i totally could 've carried you . you know that , right ? 'cause i 'm fully recovered , i 'm feeling strong , i 'm full of energy . i 'm just so happy to be out of that hospital bed . sonny : i am so grateful to have you home . but even though you are full of energy , you have to take it easy , okay ? kayla gave me strict instructions not to let you push yourself too hard . will : fine , then i 'll let you wait on me hand and foot . sonny , bring me my slippers . and where 's my breakfast ? i require my headphones and my laptop . sonny : well , i will get you that anytime , okay ? will : oh , speaking of my laptop , i can not wait to get back to work at the `` spectator . `` what ? oh , what 's that look ? sonny : no , no , nothing . it 's just , um , you know i support you 100 % in your career , right ? like , you know that . will : yeah . oh , you 're sort of in career limbo right now . i 'm sorry . that was inconsiderate of me to bring up work . sonny : no , it was n't inconsiderate at all . no , not at all , not at all . okay , i - i mean , i do wish i had a clue of what my next step would be career - wise , um , but i do n't know , i just , i do n't know what i 'm gon na do . [ dramatic music ] gabi : okay , i have my answer . stefan : no , gabi . wait . gabi : what ? stefan : you 're right . there is something ... more between us . and yes , it started as -- as just physical attraction , but , somehow , someway ... yeah , yeah , i 've developed feelings for you . and so now , i 'm willing to take a chance and be real with you , be a real couple and ...

[ chuckles ] yeah . i realized that , uh , i may still have some use for them . xander : and you 're sure that 's a good idea ? they may not have the whole truth , but they definitely have enough of the picture to hurt us . kristen : do n't worry . i am certain , from this moment on , ted and kate will be choosing their words very carefully . mmm . hope : who 's -- who 's this partner ? okay , look , i know . i 'm no longer a cop , but i have been working with eli on this . he 'll get you both police protection . but you need to tell me who xander 's working for . kate : [ sighs ] well , let 's just say that it 's not a coincidence that you found us in the tunnels underneath this house of horrors . ted : 'cause xander 's partner is a dimera . i 'm just a normal person tripp : yeah , and my next step was to set up an internet ad , which i really did n't want to do . so i 'm pretty relieved to have friends living here . jj : we 're relieved to have a place to stay . haley : yeah , especially with all the media attention i 've attracted . who knows how many landlords feel the same way jj 's did . tripp : yeah , i 'm just glad it all worked out . jj : me too . tripp : well , look , i better get going . you guys know where everything is . i 'm gon na go shower off this lunch rush . jj : sure you 're okay with living here ? haley : i do n't care where we are , jj , as long as i 've got you .

did you have to go and get involved with yet another gangster ? tracy : i did n't know he was a gangster . monica : oh , of course ! yes . exactly . because -- wait for it . he lied to you . why do you hang on to such a ridiculous thing ? oh . do n't tell me that you and joseph are going steady . tracy : monica , stop being so petty ! he gave it to me to remember . monica : what ? remember ? remember all the disastrous relationships that you have had ? have n't you learned anything , tracy ? get rid of that and get rid of him . tracy : that is exactly what i went over to his motel to do . monica : you know that god created overnight delivery for a reason . tracy : i needed to see his face ! i wanted to know that he understood that it was over . monica : ah , yes . and let me guess . you walked in , and there was instant connection , and you were drawn to him , and you knew that you understood him above anybody else , and stop me any time . tracy : sit on a tack , monica . monica : and then you had sex . did n't you ? you willingly went to bed with a murderer and a rapist . kristina : put the gun down , and we can work out a deal . no one has to know about this , especially my father . joe jr. : see , i want him to know . i want him to grieve for you and blame himself , because sonny is absolutely to blame . kristina : [ sobs ] joe jr. : you ca n't do what he 's done -- you ca n't build a fortune on the backs of other people , steal their inheritance , destroy their lives , and expect to live happily ever after ! kristina : you do n't have to kill me to take my money . joe jr. : it 's ok -- it 's -- it 's okay . kristina : i 'll get it for you . joe jr. : i give you credit , kristina . you 're a brave girl . you kept fighting to the very end . kristina : [ crying ] joe jr. : close your eyes . trey : dad ?

connie : go on . tell him , baby . go on . johnny and i had so much fun giving you your birthday present , that , um , we 've been hooking up ever since . carly : johnny ? you need to stop this and tell us all that she 's making this up . carly : i mean it , johnny . this has gone on long enough . will you just tell us that she 's lying ? sonny : t - that 's what connie does . she lies . she wants me away from kate . so you want me away from kate so bad that you 're telling me you 're sleeping with johnny , which is not true . connie : i had to sit quiet for months while kate was bleating her love for you , okay ? i needed a little fun time with johnny to keep going every day . sonny : kate would have known if she was losing time . she would have talked to a therapist . connie : oh , dr. keenan ? yeah , he was a little busy , sonny . olivia : i told you she was connie . dante : yeah , i should have believed you . olivia : until right now , i was n't sure i believed me . maxie : oh , that explains the tequila shots and pupu platters . lulu : and the desperate desire to get a stripper . sonny : you could n't have . michael : starr , you okay ? connie : in the beginning , i did n't have a lot of time , so i did a little quickie here and there . but the more i did it , the stronger i got . so kate can keep her therapy , sonny . because johnny 's the only thing i need to put kate to sleep for good . sam : oh , you are good , elizabeth . i was a grifter for years . i really worked on my technique . but i 've got nothing on you . elizabeth : i deeply regret what i did . elizabeth : it 's not too late to stop the divorce . sam : i was holding on to those papers until the night of that bachelorette party . i practically threw them in jason 's face because of what you said . elizabeth : i know ! sam : what are you talking about ?

johnny : no , i 'm not . carly : so this is all true , huh ? johnny : carly , please just -- carly : no , that 's what you said . you said every single word out of connie 's mouth was true . so you 've been sleeping with this skank since april , going behind my back . that 's what you 've been doing ? johnny : yeah . carly : son of a bitch . johnny : carly . sonny : looks like you 're on your own , connie . joe jr. : trey , you ca n't . trey : dad , you 're bleeding . we have to get you to a hospital . joe jr. : no , listen to me , kid ! i 'm not going down for this . trey : no , dad , i told you . do n't worry . we 're gon na make up an excuse , okay . all that matters right now -- joe jr. : i said no ! trey : no , dad ! joe jr. : no ! trey : dad ! kristina : trey , no ! do n't follow him ! please just , trey , let him go ! tracy : what are you gon na do if i do n't stop seeing joseph , evict me again ? monica : i 'm going to tell edward everything . tracy : no , monica . you ca n't do that . daddy has n't been well . monica : just my point . i do n't want to see him blindsided when your gangster boyfriend gets ambushed on the front lawn . tracy : remember all those nice things i said at the hospital ? i take every one of them back . monica : tracy , do you think i want to tell edward that you are cavorting with a criminal , another gangster , no less ? tracy : `` cavorting `` ? monica : well , whatever word you want to take . i ca n't wait to hear you tell him about your sexual chemistry with joseph and how you jeopardizing the family and the family 's name does n't mean anything to you , because you 're getting a great roll in the hay . i wonder how long it 's gon na take to break edward 's heart . tracy : daddy ca n't know this . monica : well , then get that man out of your life before it brings this family down . connie : oh , come on . sonny : connie 's bluffing . there 's no way she 's been sleeping with johnny since april because i 've watched kate . i 've seen her progress . it 's all a lie . alexis : but the marriage certificate is n't . it 's legal , as much as i wish it were n't . sonny : she was not in her right state of mind . johnny was taking advantage of her , right ? alexis : i get that , but he 's the only one that has the power to have her committed right now , and i 'm quite certain she knew that when she married him , right ? connie : yeah , trust me . there are many other reasons , aside from johnny 's performance between the sheets . and on any flat surfaces , really . but i have to admit , being legally protected from involuntary commitment from sonny was a major incentive . i mean , johnny and me , we 're just , um , we 're a match made in heaven . shawn : is that why johnny boy hightailed it out of here to catch up with carly ? sonny : what about olivia ? olivia : me ? sonny : you 're a blood relative . connie : are you kidding me ? she 's got a standing reservation in the loony bin . olivia : i 'm not crazy . i 'm not crazy . steve : olivia knew she was connie before anyone else did . sonny : alexis , can she have her committed ? alexis : it 's possible she could be made kate 's guardian ad litem , but having max and milo drag her out of here involuntarily is not gon na sit well with any judge . connie : i could have told you that . sonny : let -- dante : all right , thank you . thanks for letting me know . lulu : is something wrong , aside from the obvious ? dante : there 's a report of shots fired at my father 's warehouse . kristina : [ voice wavering ] i thought he just wanted a r - ransom . i - i could n't believe it when he pulled out the gun . just tried to say anything to distract him . he just kept saying he was doing it for you . trey : i had no idea that he was gon na do this , that he -- that he might actually -- kristina : [ crying ] trey : i 'm so sorry . lulu : there 's gunfire at sonny 's warehouse ? dante : yeah . i got to check it out , but i ca n't exactly leave in the middle of this mess . sonny : -- attention for a little bit . i thank you for coming , first of all . i know that it was n't , you know , uh , what i expected or hoped for , but i think the best thing is for everybody to just go ahead and leave . alexis : you sure that 's a good idea ? sonny : i want to be with her alone . connie : i do n't want to be alone with you . sonny : i do n't care what you want to do , okay ? can we -- can you get the guests out of here ? max : okay , folks thanks for coming tonight . have a good night . dante : hey , look , i know you 're upset . sonny : i need you to go , okay ? i got to speak to her privately . max : all right , thanks a lot , guys . dante : all right . alexis : do n't do anything actionable in a court of law , please . [ sighs ] milo : guys , that means you , too . spinelli : milo , i 'm not sure i 've introduced my date . this is ellie . ellie : pleased to meet you . milo : pleasure . sonny : now , milo . milo : come on . seriously . maxie , privacy . maxie : yeah , yeah . connie : later , sonny boy . on second thought , how 'bout never ? sonny : no , how 'bout you come over here . connie : ah . sonny : you 're not going anywhere . carly : [ sighs ] johnny : carly , listen to me . i never meant to hurt you . carly : i do n't care what you meant , okay ! you told everybody out there that you 're sleeping with connie . johnny : just listen to me -- carly : i do n't believe you , johnny . i know the kind of man you are . and i know that you would never do this to me again . there 's more to this . something else is going on , johnny . you have to tell me what it is . connie : let go of me , sonny . johnny , i need your help ! sonny : johnny 's not here . it 's just the two of us . connie : so ? so now what ? what are you gon na do , huh ? sonny : listen to me . kate -- connie : get -- i 'm connie , okay ? sonny : okay . okay . okay . okay . kate , i know you 're in there and you 're stronger than she is , okay ? just fight . all you got to do is fight . i will do anything i can to help you -- because i love you . just -- just come back to me . just come back to me . kristina : y - your father was gon na kill me . trey : i 'm so sorry . i 'm so sorry , kristina . i had no idea he was gon na do that . kristina : if you had n't gotten here -- trey : but i did . kristina : [ crying ] trey : i did get here . it 's gon na be okay . okay ? it 's gon na be okay . tracy : monica , you 're right . you 're right . it 's not fair of me to expose daddy to the kind of danger that 's associated with joe scully jr . monica : well , you can forget fair . i just want to know what you 're going to do about it . tracy : i 'm gon na do the only thing i can do . i 'm gon na cut off all ties with him . monica : i 'm sorry , tracy . tracy : it 's my own fault . monica : well , you were willing to take a chance . it 's been an awfully long time since a man swept me off my feet . tracy : wow . was that an attempt at empathy ? monica : do n't get excited . and do n't sign me up for online dating , please . tracy : you have my word . monica : but please do me a favor and send that going - steady charm back , registered mail . tracy : i am on my way to the post office . monica : thank you . tracy : [ sighs ] [ gasps ] oh ! oh , my god , joseph . joe jr. : tracy . please help me . sam : jason . jason : do you have a minute ? sam : yeah . sure . come on in . um -- elizabeth was just here , and she -- she told me the truth . jason : a - about what ? sam : well , the same thing that she told you , that she tricked me into believing that you wanted to be with her so i would give you a divorce . jason : th -- and that 's all ? sam : why ? what else is there ? | elizabeth goes to alexis 's house and admits to sam that she lied when she said that she and jason were together . she reveals that jason told her that they would never be together . sam said she was holding on to her divorce papers , but gave them to him last night after hearing lulu and elizabeth talking . sam says she knows ; jason told her a little while ago when she went to his apartment to convince him that sam was in a relationship with john mcbain . she says she could n't lie anymore so she told jason that she tricked her into serving the divorce papers and made up the relationship between sam and john . elizabeth says that sam will soon see everything jason has done to make things right for her . she says sam will get back everything she lost . jason shows john mcbain the dna results showing that tea 's baby is biologically sam 's . mcbain does n't look forward to breaking the news to tea . he says tea is a lawyer ; she is going to want irrefutable proof . jason concludes that they will have to get sam 's permission to exhume the baby 's body . john says that was only true when they thought he was sam 's baby ; now they need tea 's permission . john goes to tea 's house . jason goes to alexis 's house to see sam . sam tells him that elizabeth was just there and admitted to tricking her into divorcing him . he asks her if that is all elizabeth said . | <s>[INST] connie : i ca n't marry you , sonny , because i 'm already married . sonny : whatever 's going on here , we 're gon na fix it . connie : there 's nothing to fix . your honor , if i marry sonny , i 'm committing bigamy . is n't that right ? judge newcomb : if you are indeed already married , yes . sonny : you 're not married . connie : i am married . to him . carly : she 's lost her mind again . right ? sonny : what the hell are you talking about ? you 're married to johnny ? trey : there 's got to be something in here that 'll lead me to kristina . joe jr. : i 'm sorry , kristina . kristina : [ sobs ] joe jr. : i 'm sorry you have to die , but the -- but the -- but the payoff is just too good to resist . you understand . finally , sonny loses , and i win . kristina : you do n't want to kill me . it 's only gon na make things worse for you . you 're gon na either end in the pine barrens or in prison . joe jr. : i do n't think so . kristina : but w - why risk it ? you do n't have to kill me to get my money . just leave me alive . i can get it for you . you and trey could have everything you could ever want . monica : you said you were gon na give that back . tracy : monica , have you ever considered wearing a bell ? monica : you also said you were gon na have nothing to do with joe scully jr. or have you already forgotten that part ? tracy : well , that 's what i said , and i meant it . i want him and this -- out of my sight and off my mind . monica : then why do you still have it ? elizabeth : i wanted you to think that jason and i were together . but we 're not . sam : i do n't know what you 're doing . i do n't know if you feel guilty or if you do n't want anyone to know that you were coming on to jason when he was technically still a married man , but i saw you kissing him on his birthday , elizabeth . it was quite a private party you threw him . elizabeth : yes , we kissed , but then he pulled away . and he told me that we will never have a future . he will never be with me . which means , divorce or not , he will always belong with you . sam : what , you want me to believe this ? that -- that you , what , you 're suddenly gon na walk away ? elizabeth : he will always be in my heart . sam , please . you need to hear this , and i 'm not leaving until you do . can i come in ? sam : yeah . of course . elizabeth : i manipulated you into getting a divorce so that i could have jason all to myself . mcbain : you 're confident in these results ? i wo n't put this in motion if there 's any doubts . i mean , tea does n't deserve that . sam does n't deserve that . jason : call the lab if you want . the baby in llanview is a dna match . sam 's son is alive . mcbain : that 's good . also means we got a problem . jason : tea . mcbain : oh , man . this is gon na hurt . tea loves that little boy . jason : i just -- i just want sam to have her son back . mcbain : so do i . so how do we tell tea that the child she loves was never hers ? sonny : how can you be married to johnny ? connie : were you always this stupid ? pay attention to me , okay ? we filled out the forms . we filed the paperwork . we are legally we d . sonny : right . carly : this is crazy . i mean , she 's obviously having another breakdown or an episode or something . sonny : just give me a sec . why would you marry johnny when you hate him ? connie : well , kate hates johnny . but lucky for everybody , she checked out of the bridal suite , right ? sonny : checked out ? connie : that 's right . she stood you up at the altar , sonny , literally . i 'm not kate . i 'm connie . do you want to put the doggy inside ? mcbain : tea 's a lawyer . she 's gon na want proof . jason : we got a dna test right here . mcbain : she 's gon na say , `` you know , you got a lot of goofy dna tests going on up there . `` you know , first you have a negative result . now suddenly you have a positive match . jason : run a test in an independent lab . let 's do that . mcbain : i 'm convinced , all right ? i 'm convinced . but then again , i 'm not the mother about to have her child that she 's raised for the last four months taken away from me . we got to do this one by the book , you know , and unfortunately that means we 're gon na have to get evidence that the baby that is buried in the grave is tea 's son . jason : we need to get sam 's permission to exhume the body . mcbain : that was only true when we thought sam was the baby 's mother . sam : elizabeth , i heard you with lulu at kate 's bachelorette party . first there was this thing where jason came on to you and you stopped him because you did n't want to get in between us . elizabeth : we only kissed twice . the first time was the 4th of july , on the bridge . it was right after jason saw you kissing john mcbain . jason kissed me , but then he stopped and he apologized , and that should have been the end of it . sam : i know , but it was n't . elizabeth : and the second time , it was his birthday , and , yes , i kissed him , but he stopped me again then . and then i overheard you telling kristina -- sam : you were eavesdropping on us ? elizabeth : just like you were doing with me and lulu . i told lulu exactly what i wanted you to hear . how your marriage was over and how jason had moved on with me . it was all a lie , sam . tracy : things between me and joseph are complicated . monica : really ? seems awfully simple to me . all you had to do was return that silly little thing and just wash your hands of him . tracy : is everything always so black and white with you ? monica : well , were n't gino soleito and anthony zacchara bad enough , tracy ? did you have to go and get involved with yet another gangster ? tracy : i did n't know he was a gangster . monica : oh , of course ! yes . exactly . because -- wait for it . he lied to you . why do you hang on to such a ridiculous thing ? oh . do n't tell me that you and joseph are going steady . tracy : monica , stop being so petty ! he gave it to me to remember . monica : what ? remember ? remember all the disastrous relationships that you have had ? have n't you learned anything , tracy ? get rid of that and get rid of him . tracy : that is exactly what i went over to his motel to do . monica : you know that god created overnight delivery for a reason . tracy : i needed to see his face ! i wanted to know that he understood that it was over . monica : ah , yes . and let me guess . you walked in , and there was instant connection , and you were drawn to him , and you knew that you understood him above anybody else , and stop me any time . tracy : sit on a tack , monica . monica : and then you had sex . did n't you ? you willingly went to bed with a murderer and a rapist . kristina : put the gun down , and we can work out a deal . no one has to know about this , especially my father . joe jr. : see , i want him to know . i want him to grieve for you and blame himself , because sonny is absolutely to blame . kristina : [ sobs ] joe jr. : you ca n't do what he 's done -- you ca n't build a fortune on the backs of other people , steal their inheritance , destroy their lives , and expect to live happily ever after ! kristina : you do n't have to kill me to take my money . joe jr. : it 's ok -- it 's -- it 's okay . kristina : i 'll get it for you . joe jr. : i give you credit , kristina . you 're a brave girl . you kept fighting to the very end . kristina : [ crying ] joe jr. : close your eyes . trey : dad ? kristina : trey ! trey : dad , what are you doing ? ! joe jr. : son , h - how did you find me ? trey : the motel room . you left a note there . kristina : trey , stop him ! he 's gon na kill me ! joe jr. : i 'm sorry , kid . this is the only way . trey : no , no . w - why ? w - what ? joe jr. : she dies , you inherit everything that sonny corinthos took from you . trey : no , dad , that 's crazy . she has no control -- kristina : i tried to tell him ! joe jr. : you 're both wrong ! i know a few things that you do n't . now , i did n't want to get you involved in this , kid . but do n't worry . it 'll be over in a few seconds . trey : no , no , dad . you want to kill kristina , you 're gon na have to shoot me first . kristina : [ crying ] sonny : kate was integrated . connie : oh , you mean dr. keenan ? what a great shrink he turned out to be , huh ? sonny : she recovered all her memories , and she does n't need you anymore . connie : no , you have it backwards . i do n't need kate anymore . see , i do n't have to hide anymore , sonny , like i 've been hiding for months , only coming out on certain occasions -- with certain people -- like johnny . sonny : what are you talking about ? connie : go on . tell him , baby . go on . johnny and i had so much fun giving you your birthday present , that , um , we 've been hooking up ever since . carly : johnny ? you need to stop this and tell us all that she 's making this up . carly : i mean it , johnny . this has gone on long enough . will you just tell us that she 's lying ? sonny : t - that 's what connie does . she lies . she wants me away from kate . so you want me away from kate so bad that you 're telling me you 're sleeping with johnny , which is not true . connie : i had to sit quiet for months while kate was bleating her love for you , okay ? i needed a little fun time with johnny to keep going every day . sonny : kate would have known if she was losing time . she would have talked to a therapist . connie : oh , dr. keenan ? yeah , he was a little busy , sonny . olivia : i told you she was connie . dante : yeah , i should have believed you . olivia : until right now , i was n't sure i believed me . maxie : oh , that explains the tequila shots and pupu platters . lulu : and the desperate desire to get a stripper . sonny : you could n't have . michael : starr , you okay ? connie : in the beginning , i did n't have a lot of time , so i did a little quickie here and there . but the more i did it , the stronger i got . so kate can keep her therapy , sonny . because johnny 's the only thing i need to put kate to sleep for good . sam : oh , you are good , elizabeth . i was a grifter for years . i really worked on my technique . but i 've got nothing on you . elizabeth : i deeply regret what i did . elizabeth : it 's not too late to stop the divorce . sam : i was holding on to those papers until the night of that bachelorette party . i practically threw them in jason 's face because of what you said . elizabeth : i know ! sam : what are you talking about ? how do you know ? elizabeth : jason told me . i went to see him a little while ago . [ sighs ] i went to see him to convince him -- that you were in a relationship with john mcbain . [ sighs ] mcbain : we need the mother 's permission to exhume the grave , which means i need to go back to llanview and face tea . i need to take this dna test and explain to her how i showed up at her house under false pretense and took a sample of her child that she thought was hers . jason : you want me to go with you ? mcbain : you worried i 'll let her make a run for it ? jason : no , i 'm just saying she might handle it a little better if it 's coming from a stranger . you can be there so she can lean on you . i can be the bad guy . mcbain : why should you do that ? this is not your fault . it 's not tea 's fault . i guess manning can explain to her from his jail cell someday . no , i just want to do this . i just want to get it done with as little damage as possible . jason : she 's about to find out her child died . there 's no way to lessen that damage . mcbain : i know . tea 's my friend . i 'll do it . you should be the one to give sam the good news . joe jr. : enough , son . now get out of the way . trey : no . no , dad . i already told you . if you 're gon na kill kristina , you 're gon na have to shoot me first . joe jr. : do n't you understand ? i 'm doing this for you . i 'm giving you everything that you did n't have when you were growing up . trey : what are you talking about , dad ? i had everything . joe jr. : i could never give you what you deserved , your birthright . trey : dad , i do n't care about what sonny stole from us ! joe jr. : it 's not just about sonny ! all those years that i had to be both parents to you because you did n't have a mom . she left you for dead . everything bad that 's happened to you , to us , happened because of sonny and that woman ! trey : kristina has nothing to do with that ! joe jr. : she 's her father 's child , son ! kristina : [ crying ] joe jr. : kate never cared what happened to you , but sonny will care what happens to kristina . and to lose her on the day he marries kate -- is poetic justice . now , son -- get out of my way ! starr : if that 's connie , she 's the one that 's responsible for killing cole and hope . connie : -- that stupid smile on you face , and then i get the hell out of the bed , and i go see johnny , and we do it in his car or his desk in his office . and you know after he got shot -- sonny : shut up ! connie : -- in the hospital . dante : okay , okay . just -- sonny : no , no , i 'm fine . lulu : connie 's been around for months . how could he not notice ? spinelli : this is a dark day . for connie to vanquish kate and make her presence known at the altar in front of her erstwhile groom 's family and friends . this -- this is a disaster . come on . ellie : it is the most extraordinary wedding i have ever been to . spinelli : um , [ chuckles ] perhaps i should explain . the bride suffers from a very rare -- ellie : dissociative identity disorder , also known as d.i.d . spinelli : d - did you come across that in your studies ? ellie : well , it was in a chapter in one of my textbooks , but i have to admit , i 've gleaned most of my knowledge from daytime television . spinelli : it is a surprising font of information . sonny : fine , connie . you 've been here for months , skipping out of my bed , banging johnny . still does n't explain to me how you got married . carly : she did n't ! she 's lying ! connie : tell her , johnny .

monica : i 'm going to tell edward everything . tracy : no , monica . you ca n't do that . daddy has n't been well . monica : just my point . i do n't want to see him blindsided when your gangster boyfriend gets ambushed on the front lawn . tracy : remember all those nice things i said at the hospital ? i take every one of them back . monica : tracy , do you think i want to tell edward that you are cavorting with a criminal , another gangster , no less ? tracy : `` cavorting `` ? monica : well , whatever word you want to take . i ca n't wait to hear you tell him about your sexual chemistry with joseph and how you jeopardizing the family and the family 's name does n't mean anything to you , because you 're getting a great roll in the hay . i wonder how long it 's gon na take to break edward 's heart . tracy : daddy ca n't know this . monica : well , then get that man out of your life before it brings this family down . connie : oh , come on . sonny : connie 's bluffing . there 's no way she 's been sleeping with johnny since april because i 've watched kate . i 've seen her progress . it 's all a lie . alexis : but the marriage certificate is n't . it 's legal , as much as i wish it were n't . sonny : she was not in her right state of mind . johnny was taking advantage of her , right ? alexis : i get that , but he 's the only one that has the power to have her committed right now , and i 'm quite certain she knew that when she married him , right ? connie : yeah , trust me . there are many other reasons , aside from johnny 's performance between the sheets . and on any flat surfaces , really . but i have to admit , being legally protected from involuntary commitment from sonny was a major incentive . i mean , johnny and me , we 're just , um , we 're a match made in heaven . shawn : is that why johnny boy hightailed it out of here to catch up with carly ? sonny : what about olivia ? olivia : me ? sonny : you 're a blood relative . connie : are you kidding me ? she 's got a standing reservation in the loony bin . olivia : i 'm not crazy . i 'm not crazy . steve : olivia knew she was connie before anyone else did . sonny : alexis , can she have her committed ? alexis : it 's possible she could be made kate 's guardian ad litem , but having max and milo drag her out of here involuntarily is not gon na sit well with any judge . connie : i could have told you that . sonny : let -- dante : all right , thank you . thanks for letting me know . lulu : is something wrong , aside from the obvious ? dante : there 's a report of shots fired at my father 's warehouse . kristina : [ voice wavering ] i thought he just wanted a r - ransom . i - i could n't believe it when he pulled out the gun . just tried to say anything to distract him . he just kept saying he was doing it for you . trey : i had no idea that he was gon na do this , that he -- that he might actually -- kristina : [ crying ] trey : i 'm so sorry . lulu : there 's gunfire at sonny 's warehouse ?

sam : because if he were to confide in anyone , it would be you . jason : has heather made any attempt to contact you ? steve : not since the last time she called me from ferncliff during the pathogen scare . jason : she 's fixated on you . it would just , you know , make sense that she would try to get in touch with you . steve : well , come on in . feel free to search the place . look , i already told the police they have my full cooperation . the same goes for you . i mean , anyone who can find my mother and return her to ferncliff is doing me a favor . jason : i 'm sorry . i just -- i had to check . steve : why ? what 's happened ? jason : i - i ca n't get into that . steve : is this about the baby ? look , i 'm the reason you know about tea delgado . and the fact is , she had a baby on the same night in the same approximate location as sam , and you seem to think that my mother made a switch . jason : okay . it 's -- it 's confirmed . steve : how is that possible ? jason : the dna test . the baby ms . delgado took back to llanview is sam 's . steve : does ms . delgado know about this ? jason : john mcbain went to tell her , but your mother was already there . steve : in llanview ? jason : she convinced ms . delgado to hire her as a nanny . now the baby 's gone -- and so is heather . mcbain : webber was using her cousin susan moore 's name as an alias . tea needed childcare , and heather -- `` susan `` -- she had references . anna : yeah , but heather 's used a forger before . i 'm not surprised she 'd go back to doing it again . mcbain : now heather 's taken the baby , and she 's disappeared , all right ? llanview police are looking everywhere . they 're searching . they 're in the train stations , they 're at the airports , but they got nothing . so i was thinking maybe she came back here . maybe she came to someplace she 'd know . maybe she 's been seen in port charles . anna : no , nothing . nothing so far . god , that poor woman -- tea . she must be out of her mind . there 's nothing more terrifying than thinking your child is in danger . mcbain : she blames herself . she thinks she should have seen through heather . anna : i know how she feels . duke : oh , robin -- you were such an engaging child . always so bright , so inquisitive . ' course , you were the center of your mother 's life . heather webber is responsible for all of this , that despicable woman . she gave your mother hope that you were alive . she checked herself in here , hoping that she would find you . so typical of anna . put herself at risk . broke my heart when i saw her on the monitor just before she opened the door of the decoy 's room . the look of joy on her face when she thought she was gon na find you . and the horrible loss and devastation when she realized it was just a mistake . i wanted to throw open the door and show you to her . but i ca n't . i ca n't do that . not yet . anna : i have now what i think is a personal vendetta against heather . that 's why i purposefully removed myself from the search for her , because the last thing i want is for that psycho bitch to get off on a technicality . mcbain : but how do you really feel ? anna : [ chuckles ] how i feel is , i wish i had my old job , where i could terminate with extreme prejudice . mcbain : i understand the impulse . anna : and now she 's abducted a child . mcbain : yeah , looks that way . anna : but i 'm missing something . why did she go to llanview ? i mean , is this , uh -- random , or did she take this particular child for a reason ? i mean , what is the connection between tea delgado and heather ? carly : okay , i -- todd : breakfast is served . carly : wow . this is so nice , but i have to get home to josslyn . todd : joss is fine . she 's had cereal with a cut up banana . she 's on her way to preschool . carly : you talked to my nanny ? todd : are you kidding ? mercedes is my new b.f.f . carly : well , that 's great . i mean , honestly , thank you , but i have to get going . todd : carly , i went to all the trouble of calling room service . we 've got scrambled eggs -- firm but not dry -- extra - crispy bacon . we 've got wheat toast , seasonal fruit , perfectly ripe . we 've got juice , no pulp , and half caf , half decaf . carly : you really have to work on your stalking issues , you know ? todd : oh , no , i 've completely dealt with those . now i 'm just very observant . carly : thank you . todd : you 're welcome . carly : i 'm just not really hungry after finding out your boyfriend 's been cheating on you for months . todd : okay , this is a perfectly good meal . can we not ruin it by talking about that worm ? carly : i ca n't help it . i ca n't stop thinking that there 's just something else that johnny 's not telling me . duke : i miss our talks , robin . you were so perceptive as a child . although sometimes you used to worry me . i thought you could see right through me when i was n't being entirely honest . well , i never intended any malice . i had the same motive then as i have now . your mother -- i promise you , i will reunite you with anna . but not now . it has to be carefully orchestrated . dr. obrecht : it 's getting late . duke : i know . i wanted to tell her my plans , even though i know she ca n't hear me . dr. obrecht : blame the americans -- those incompetents at ferncliff . she has been rendered comatose thanks to their negligence . duke : well , yes , but to be entirely fair , the psychiatrist was an australian , although a total incompetent . dr. obrecht : to have exposed her to such a punishing dose of electroshock , the results are not surprising . unfortunately , they may be irreversible . duke : that 's why she must remain here . she 's in no condition to be reunited with her mother . anna : does tea have any idea why she was targeted by heather ? you know , did she take this child for a particular reason ? mcbain : heather and tea crossed paths the night of the storm last june , all right ? not far from heather 's preferred base of operations on route 59 . anna : the shack ? mcbain : the shack , right . the same time tea , she 's giving birth to her child at a bus stop at the side of the road -- anna : oh , god . mcbain : but the baby 's not breathing , so todd runs off with the baby , searching for some help . anna : and heather would have been there because she was burying anthony zacchara 's body . mcbain : manning finds his way to the shack , and there , someone performs infant cpr . anna : heather ? oh . well , that would explain the connection between heather and todd . mcbain : part of it , anyway . anna : but what happened that night that would give heather such a hold over todd manning ? todd : johnny cheated on you because that 's who he is . he 's a spineless coward . he only married connie to get back at sonny . that should tell you exactly who johnny zacchara is . carly : can we not go there ? todd : what ? johnny and connie are perfect for one another . names are all rhymey , and they have their own particular misery that i hope they inflict on one another for the rest of their lives . carly : everyone 's thinking that johnny took advantage of kate 's mental illness . todd : okay . he did 'cause he 's a dirtbag , and you can do better . carly : the marriage makes sense from connie 's perspective . she has to marry johnny so sonny ca n't throw her into shadybrook , but why johnny ? todd : you are a beautiful , sexy , rich woman . did i say that you were beautiful ? you 're beautiful . you own your own business . you have so much going for you . you can do better than johnny zacchara . much better . steve : i mean , i wish i could say that the child will be okay , but with my mother , there 's no telling . does sam know ? jason : i was about to tell her . then i got a call about heather kidnapping the baby . steve : so sam does n't know her son is still alive . jason : i just did n't think it was fair to tell sam right now when all she can do is worry and be afraid . sam : you 're really disappointing me , spinelli . you would lie to me , your partner ? spinelli : look , i can not withhold what i do not know , and since jason has not made me privy to this hypothetical important information , there 's nothing that i can tell you . sam : i do n't believe you . i think your first loyalty is to jason . spinelli : no , that is not true . i -- i am loyal to you both , as evidenced by my continued efforts to help you get past your differences and reunite ! sam : okay . well , it would help to know what 's going on with jason . spinelli : okay . well , you said yourself that he came over here with the intention of addressing the subject , right ? sam : yes , but we were interrupted because kristina was in trouble . spinelli : oh , is she okay ? sam : yes , she 's fine . stop trying to change the subject . spinelli : well , forgive me , but you brought it up . i -- sam : focus , spinelli , please ! help me figure out what jason was trying to tell me last night ! spinelli : i do n't have psychic powers . i ca n't tell you with any certainty . sam : okay , well , listen . he got a phone call , and then he left with no explanation . was he calling you ? were you on the other end ? spinelli : no , no . he was definitely not . i was at the observatory with my -- she 's a friend . we were stargazing -- or , she was . i was more admiring her profile . sam : okay , i think it 's really great that you -- spinelli : i 'm not implying that we 're in a relationship ! it 's just a first date . sam : well , jason got a phone call , and he left . where did he go ? spinelli : i have no idea . but i 'm sure that once he 's taken care of what he needs to take care of , he 'll talk to you . i 'll be at the office , okay ? sam : you are not going anywhere . spinelli : i 'm afraid i can be of no further help . sam : you have n't been of any help , anyway . i know you , spinelli ! you 're being all dodgy . you know something , and you 've got to tell me . maxie : why would i care what you and spinelli do in the dark ? ellie : well , just to clarify , we did , indeed , observe venus on display in the night sky . we did n't , however , have sexual relations . maxie : good . great ! i 'm , um -- sorry if i 'm being intrusive . ellie : no , the fault is mine . unfortunately , interpersonal skills are not really my strong point . i 'm a whiz in the lab , you know , but it 's easy to tell a ribose from a 2-deoxyribose . maxie : sure . do it all the time . ellie : but people and what they say or what they do n't say but they imply without words , it 's all very hard for me to decipher , so forgive me if i 've got this wrong , but it does seem like you 're concerned with the possibility of damian and i having intercourse last night , which just seems odd , considering the fact that you 're married to that guy who 's in jail -- the wrench murderer . maxie : oh , i would n't call him the wrench murderer . there was only one wrench . and besides , it was like a one - time thing . he had a plea bargain . he 's only in prison for like five years . ellie : oh , that 's got to be a great relief . maxie : seriously . when you consider he could have gotten like 20 to life . ellie : ooh . maxie : but that 's not the point . that is not the point . the point is , i 'm very married . um -- spinelli 's just important to me . he 's been hurt in the past , and i do n't want that to happen again . spinelli : i do n't know anything -- not a thing . i 'm a blank slate , a tabula rasa . now , if you 'll excuse me , i -- sam : no , i wo n't . you 've got that guilty look about you . spinelli : well , i confess , i did have three doughnuts for breakfast , which is far above my allotted carb count . sam : wait a minute . is this about that case that you were working on ? spinelli : what case ? sam : the baby case . i went in jason 's , and you were on the phone , and i asked you about it , and you got all squirrely with me . spinelli : are you calling me a rodent ? sam : you were on the phone with jason that day , were n't you ? what baby were you talking about ? duke : no change ? dr. obrecht : i 'm sorry . duke : i know you miss your mother , robin . i know how much she misses you . be such a comfort if i could bring you both together , but -- i ca n't do that . i ca n't do that yet . it 's time for -- a different reunion . anna : so why is todd under heather 's thumb ? you said you might know -- but that , however it fell out , somebody 's gon na get badly hurt . mcbain : yeah . that 's an understatement . anna : well , i -- all i know now is that todd met heather in the woods . and now she 's run off with tea 's baby . am i right ? mcbain : the baby is n't tea 's son . he 's sam morgan 's . steve : you 've got to tell sam . jason : i ca n't tell sam yet . steve : it 's one thing withholding the information while you 're still investigating , but you know the truth now . jason : the truth is that sam 's child was kidnapped by a woman who hates her . and i do n't want to put sam through that . it 's better to wait . i 'll tell sam about her son when he 's safe . spinelli : i 'm sorry . i really ca n't discuss this . it 's confidential , but if you would like to confide in me about other things , like your misunderstanding with elizabeth , then i 'd be happy -- sam : it was n't really a misunderstanding . she lied . she wanted me to think there was more going on between her and jason . spinelli : that makes sense . but why would she confess that to you ? sam : yeah , i do n't know , spinelli . i thought it was weird , too . she kept saying that she could n't lie to another mother , which did n't make any sense because -- i 'm not a mother . spinelli : you -- sam , you most certainly are . okay , los -- losing a child does n't change the fact that -- that you carried him , you bore him , you loved him . you will always be his mother . sam : thank you for that . spinelli : well , it 's true . sam : okay . well , it 's not answering my question . spinelli : i 'm afraid only jason can do that . sam : spinelli , when i mentioned that to jason , all he could say is that -- `` is that all elizabeth said ? `` spinelli : perhaps he was afraid that harsh words were spoken ? sam : or perhaps jason and elizabeth are keeping something from me . it 's a secret , and you know what it is . spinelli : yeah , it 's -- it 's an emotional time , you know , with the strain of the pathogen and what 's going on with you . you know , i think everyone 's just a little -- a little fuzzy and -- sam : listen to me ! enough , spinelli ! i know you 're keeping something from me , and you need to tell me before i hurt you ! ellie : i would never hurt damian . he 's wonderful . maxie : yeah , he is . ellie : but i think it 's really nice that you still care . most former girlfriends would n't . maxie : i would n't consider myself a former girlfriend . it 's a little more complex than that . you see -- ellie : i know . damian explained . maxie : he did ? yeah , he was madly in love with you , and you married someone else . you wanted to stay friends , but he could n't help but pine for you . he finally made the decision to distance himself , and he 's just recently begun dating . maxie : spinelli told you all of that ? ellie : he 's so honest . it 's one of the things i like best about damian . actually , there 's a lot i like about him . maxie : well , just be careful . you do n't want to become the rebound girl . ellie : oh , no . i 'm in no hurry . if anything , i hope we take our time . and perhaps a real relationship will develop . he 's one of the only people who can really follow my train of thought . maxie : well , what about you ? do you understand all the things that come out of spinelli 's mouth ? you know , when he starts talking about ruling the internet and particle physics and string theory , hmm ? do you understand that ? ellie : yeah , most of it . his computer skills are epic , though . way beyond mine . maxie : yeah , way beyond anyone 's . did spinelli tell you about that time he lost his mojo and i helped him find it ? ellie : yeah . he is so grateful for you . i just do n't think he wants to be intrusive , you know ? or cause any friction between you and the wrench murderer . maxie : i told you , he 's not the wrench murderer . it 's more like the wrench manslaughterer . ellie : even so , i 'm sure you miss him so much . maxie : well , at some -- yes . you 're right . i do miss my husband a lot . ellie : well , this works great , then . maxie : you 've lost me . ellie : well , if damian and i are in a relationship , then you do n't have to worry about him pining after you . and without the added pressure of his unrequited feelings for you , you guys can go back to being friends again , which is exactly what you wanted , right ? anna : sam 's baby is alive and being passed off as tea 's ? how ? do you know this for a fact ? mcbain : yeah . i did the swab on little victor . anna : tea gave you permission to do that ? mcbain : no , i did n't want to say anything till i had proof . anna : okay . dna test was obtained illegally , then . mcbain : it was n't meant to hold up in court . but it 's definitive . sam morgan is that little boy 's mother . anna : do you know how the switch occurred ? mcbain : think so . manning went searching in the woods with a baby , the one we talked about earlier . at the same time , sam found her way to the woods . she went to the shack . she 's just given birth , right ? and she 's -- she 's suffering from shock and blood loss , all right ? so she puts her baby down , and she passes out . anna : and heather 's there . because she 's dealing with anthony 's body . mcbain : yes . at that point , webber and manning conspire to switch the babies . anna : wow . well , my money 's on heather . i bet it was her idea . mcbain : manning 's no better . you know what ? he had already killed tea 's husband . and there 's no way he wanted to tell her the truth that the baby did n't make it . anna : what kind of monster takes a child from his own mother ? duke : anna devane is a stubborn woman . mm . we clashed from the first time we met . dr. obrecht : why is that ? duke : well , let 's just say we were from opposite sides . but that did n't stop us . nothing could , for a time . dr. obrecht : what happened ? duke : circumstances -- tore us apart . but now those circumstances do n't exist , so -- i can go back to her . carly : i have done better . i had jax . i mean , how is that for a joke ? i stalled that divorce for close to a year , came up with tons of excuses , and then i sign away my marriage with jax for johnny zacchara . god , i feel like such an idiot . todd : why ? you just made a gesture in good faith . carly : and jason knew . jason knew that being with johnny was a bad idea . todd : jason , jason , jason , jason , jason -- carly : jason always knows when i 'm not trusting my own instincts . he knows when i 'm lying to myself , and he told me that being with johnny was wrong and that i should dump him . you know what else is really great about jason ? todd : no , tell me . carly : he does n't tell me , `` i told you so . `` todd : that 's -- okay . why are you mad at me ? i 'm not the guy you should be mad at here . carly : you 're right . i 'm mad at myself . todd : which is ridiculous . johnny cheated on you . johnny lied to your face . you want to be mad at somebody , be mad at johnny . do n't be mad at me . and do n't be mad at yourself . carly : you 're right . you 're right , because you 've been so wonderful and kind to me , and i 've taken advantage of you long enough . i need to go home and get dressed and go to work so i can spend my day not trying to , like , burst into tears the whole time or throw something at somebody , and -- todd : why do n't you call in sick ? call in sick . carly : call in sick ? just not go ? todd : you 're the boss . you can do that . come on . i 'll put some popcorn in the microwave . we 'll throw a movie on . carly : with you ? todd : yeah , with me . carly : you have a paper to run . todd : okay , do n't tell anybody , but they can actually survive the whole day there without me . popcorn and a b - movie with a beautiful blond . i 'm not stupid . i 'm not gon na give that up . carly : [ chuckles ] i do n't feel very beautiful right now . todd : trust me -- you 're a knockout . so what do you want ? you want western ? you want zombies ? what do you -- oh , here -- immediately . come on . `` my boyfriend was an alien . `` carly : [ laughs ] todd : it 's perfect . carly : does it really say that ? todd : not only says that , that 's what we 're gon na watch . here . i 'll start the popcorn . carly : okay . todd -- todd : yes ? carly : thank you . todd : you 're welcome . it 's all gon na be okay . anna : okay , i 'm heather , and i disappear . why do i go to the trouble of kidnapping a child ? unless there 's something -- that she wants from that particular child . truthfully , i 'm -- kind of too afraid to find out what . steve : this is my mother we 're talking about , jason . even if you found her , there 's no guarantee this baby 's gon na be okay . jason : i understand that . steve : the least she could do is sell him to the highest bidder . she 's done it before . jason : heather 's resources are limited . there 's only so far that she can run . and now that she 's kidnapped a child , that 's a federal crime , and the feds are gon na be after her , too . steve : which will only make her more dangerous . jason : which is exactly why sam ca n't know about any of this . sam : talk ! spinelli : would you actually incur bodily harm to your friend and business partner ? sam : people have been lying to me for weeks ! if you do n't tell me what 's going on , i just may snap ! spinelli : okay , i have to tell you , though -- my pugilistic skills have improved . jason 's been training me . or , it was actually just once , and i was felled by a wayward punch , and -- sam : i can take you , spinelli ! you know it , and i know it ! so you better tell me what 's going on before you lose -- spinelli : okay , you 've broken me ! i - i surrender . i surrender . sam : so you admit it ? you know what 's going on ? spinelli : i - i know -- i know that there is the possibility of something . it was a theory that was disproved . it just turned out to be a mistake . mcbain : hey , anna , we got to do everything we can to find this kid , all right ? after that -- heather can go to hell , for all i care . anna : tea does n't know the child is n't hers ? mcbain : after we found out that the baby was missing and that the psychopath that she had hired did it -- i did n't think it was the right time to tell her . anna : oh , god , that poor woman . she 's probably terrified that some harm 's gon na come to that little boy or that she 's never gon na see him again . and then if we 're lucky enough to find him , give him back to her , and then tell her that -- he 's not hers ? that is so cruel . she 'll lose him all over again . duke : your mother was shattered by your death . it was all so real for her , but i promise -- i 'm gon na mend her broken heart . and very soon , your mother and everyone will know that you 're alive . but not just yet . it 's got to be our secret . dr. obrecht : the car is waiting . duke : please take care of : we 'll do our best . i 'm sorry -- but i have to ask -- what about luke spencer ? he seemed quite devoted to ms . devane . duke : i 'm not concerned by him . i know anna 's heart . i 'm the man she loves . anna : is bo buchanan still commissioner at llanview ? mcbain : he is . anna : okay , i need you to tell him that he has our full cooperation . why do n't i just call him ? mcbain : i suggest you also send a squad car out to what 's left of that shack in the woods . anna : maybe i 'll bring heather 's son in . i do n't think steve is covering for her in any way , but -- i just think that -- um -- maybe steve , uh -- you know , i just think maybe he knows more than he realizes , maybe . mcbain : when was the last time you slept ? anna : i do n't know . i have officially moved past my professional detachment to heather . she is now making another mother 's life misery , and i am gon na make damn sure she pays for it . after she lied to me about robin -- well , that 's weird . mcbain : hey . hey . anna : oh , god . mcbain : you okay ? anna : yeah . just weird . mcbain : when 's the last time you had something to eat ? anna : [ breathes deeply ] i do n't know . yesterday , i think ? mcbain : yesterday ? [ scoffs ] anna : yeah . mcbain : hey , go home . anna : no , i 'm okay , i 'm okay . mcbain : you 're not okay . you go home , all right ? get a couple hours sleep , all right ? you have a sandwich , you get a shower . you got to stay sharp , you know ? you may be gunning for heather webber , but she 's gunning for you , too . steve : hey , look -- i do n't know where you and sam are -- i do n't know if you 're separated or what -- but you , of all people , know her better than anyone else . and do you really think she 'd want you to protect her right now ? i mean , what if something awful happens ? do n't you think she deserves to know that her son survived and that he had a few good months with a woman who made sure he was loved ? sam needs to know the truth . sam : i 'm sorry , spinelli . did i hurt you ? spinelli : i may have tweaked -- no , i - i 'm fine . it is remarkable -- you are small in stature but unquestionably fierce . sam : i 'm just -- i 'm really frustrated . i did n't mean to take it out on you , though . spinelli : i counsel calm and patience . sam : i just do n't understand how whatever this is could be a mistake . jason obviously came here to tell me something . spinelli : you -- you must ask him these questions , okay ? let him tell you , if there is , in fact , anything to tell . sam : but do n't you think that i would be able to help ? i mean , i have the right to know what 's going on ? this is about me , right ? spinelli : yeah , you -- you make a valid point . i mean -- and you -- you are concerned . no doubt about it . um -- but you 'll have to ask jason about it ! sam : spinelli ! spinelli ! [ sighs ] maxie : you dating spinelli does n't actually solve anything . ellie : well , damian told me you two ca n't be friends until you 're both in new relationships . you 're already married , and damian and i are on the cusp of something wonderful . maxie : wonderful ? was that your word or spinelli 's ? ellie : i can just feel it . the pheromones are everywhere . you know , i was reading a study comparing humans and moths -- maxie : okay , i do n't care about moths or pheromones . and being friends with damian is the last thing that i want . [ scratching ] ellie : i 'm sorry you do n't want to be friends with damian . i know he 'll be really disappointed . maxie : he will ? ellie : of course . he was counting on resuming your friendship once he settled in to a relationship of his own . you 're really important to him . maxie : he 's important to me . really -- spinelli : ellie . ellie : i was n't sure you 'd be able to make it . spinelli : are you kidding ? i 've been looking forward -- maxie : hi , spinelli . spinelli : maxie , uh -- if i might ask -- what 's going on ? maxie : oh ! um -- just girl talk . you know . spinelli : oh . great . maxie : uh , what are you doing here , damian ? spinelli : uh -- taking ellie to lunch . ellie : yeah ! we 're going to picnic on that cliff overlooking the lake . spinelli : yeah . ellie : and if we 're lucky , maybe we 'll even see some peregrine falcons . spinelli : oh , a most thrilling prospect . [ both laugh ] maxie : are you doing okay ? you seem a little stressed . spinelli : it actually has been a bit of a stressful morning , but -- nothing a picnic ca n't cure , so -- shall we ? ellie : yeah . maxie , it was really nice getting to know you better . maybe we could do `` girl talk `` again ? maxie : yeah , sure . [ elevator bell dings ] anna : who are you ? i asked you a question -- who are you ? that 's not possible . duke ? carly : i ca n't believe we watched that whole movie . todd : you kidding ? you loved it . i saw your face when the girl threw her boyfriend into the volcano . carly : oh , that was my favorite part . todd : you want to know my favorite part ? the girl riding off into the sunset with her new reporter boyfriend . carly : really ? todd : yeah . no ? well , maybe not today . but tomorrow . carly : i should go . todd : you do n't want to see `` space aliens from outer space 6 `` or whatever 's next ? carly : i should get home to josslyn . i mean , i do want to spend some mommy time with her , and i need to shower and -- todd : you know , the thing is , whoever designed this hotel did a great job . there 's a shower in every suite . there 's one -- i 'll scrub your back . scrub your front . carly : [ laughs ] you do n't have to flirt with me , you know . i 'm feeling better . todd : you will feel better . and -- after a while , you -- you wo n't think about that jerk at all . carly : unfortunately , i still love that jerk . steve : hey , liv , it 's me again . i 'm just leaving you another message . i worry about you with my mother out there somewhere . [ knock on door ] steve : call me when you can . let me know you 're okay , okay ? i love you . forecast -- plenty of -- todd : do n't you worry , carly . your heart 's not broken . you 're just momentarily humiliated . that 's all . [ knock on door ] todd : well , look who could n't stay away . mcbain : i know what you did . sam : hey , jason . i - it 's me . i 'm at my mom 's -- [ knock on door ] sam : i was just thinking that we probably need to finish that conversation that we started . jason : yeah , we do . [ breathes deeply ] sam : you said that whatever you had to tell me was important , and then we got interrupted . so -- jason : that 's -- that 's why i 'm here . you need to sit down . sam : okay . it 's that bad . jason : [ breathes deeply ] it 's about your son . your son is alive . | in a hospital room in switzerland , duke lavery tells robin that he never meant to hurt her or her mother . he tells the doctor that he ca n't reunite robin with anna while she is comatose . he takes an old picture of anna out of his pocket and says it is time for a different kind of reunion . as he heads out with his plane ticket in hand , the doctor tells him that luke spencer seemed devoted to anna . duke says anna loves him so he is n't worried about luke . anna instructs an officer to search for joe scully . john mcbain goes to her office and tells her that heather webber took off with tea 's baby after having used her dead cousin , susan moore 's identity to get a job as tea 's nanny . he tells her about the baby switch with sam morgan 's baby . he says tea does n't know that victor is n't hers . anna concludes that tea will be devastated all over again when the child is returned to her only to find out that he is not her child . anna asks john to tell llanview police commissioner , bo buchanan , that he has their full cooperation . john suggests checking out the shack in the woods . she says she might bring in heather 's son because he might know more than the thinks he does . jason goes to steve 's apartment and asks him if his mother has been there . he says he has n't heard from her . jason tells him that a dna test confirmed that the baby that tea delgado has is sam 's child and that heather took him . steve tells jason that he needs to tell sam all of that . jason thinks it is better to wait until the baby is safe . steve says there is no guarantee that they baby will be ok . he says his mother has sold babies in the past . he says sam needs to know the truth so she can have comfort in knowing that her child survived and was with a woman who loved him . sam asks spinelli what important information jason was going to tell her last night before they were interrupted . he tells her that he does n't know . she collars him and tells him that if he does n't spill , she will hurt him . he admits that they were working on a theory , but that it did n't pan out . she releases him . he runs away . sam calls jason and says they need to finish the conversation that they started . she answers a knock on the door and finds jason on the other side holding his phone to his ear and saying yeah , they do . he comes in and tells her that she needs to sit down . when she does , he tells her that her son is alive . steve calls olivia and leaves a message that he worries about her with his mother being out there . he answers a knock on the door and finds heather standing there with a baby in her arms . anna goes home and finds that someone has tampered with the door . she goes in with her gun drawn and finds duke inside . she says it is impossible . | <s>[INST] [ monitors beeping ] duke : i know you wo n't believe me , but -- i never wanted to hurt you or your mother . robin -- you , of all people -- you know how much i love anna . anna : i need you to check the hospitals , the pharmacies , clinics -- just i want to check to see if there 's been any break - ins because -- officer : got it . anna : maybe supplies missing . obviously , he 's getting medical attention from someone . officer : okay . anna : hi . you here to volunteer for the search for scully ? if so , i accept . thank you . come in . mcbain : unless you want him brought back bludgeoned . otherwise , i got an update on your other missing person -- heather webber . [ knock on door ] steve : all right , all right ! i 'm coming ! jason . i ca n't think of any other reason you 'd want to see me unless this is about my mother . jason : has she been here ? todd : hey . did you find heather ? how hard is it to find one lone crazy lady ? uh , i 'll call you back . carly : [ sighs ] i had the strangest dream . [ breathes deeply ] except it was n't a dream , huh ? really happened . maxie : this is n't stalking , exactly . i 'm just a concerned friend . i mean , spinelli is so naive . just because a person seems smart and funny and interesting does n't mean they are all those things . [ sighs ] ellie : maxie ? maxie : oh , hey ! uh , allie , right ? ellie : it 's `` ellie , `` with an `` e `` -- damian 's date from the wedding . maxie : right . i 'm sorry . so , uh , did you enjoy yourself ? ellie : well , it was certainly unorthodox . when the bride revealed she was really an alternate personality and had already married someone else , i was riveted . maxie : it was kind of a disaster . ellie : are you kidding ? it was one of the best dates of my life . maxie : really ? even with no reception after ? i mean , spinelli must have taken you home pretty early . ellie : actually , damian and i spent the night together . spinelli : oh ! hey . whoa ! sorry for the delay . i was in the shower when you called . sam : thanks for coming . spinelli : yeah , sure . what 's the reason for the urgent summons ? sam : jason 's keeping something from me , and i think you know what it is . in here , the oven , cookies . maxie : you and spinelli slept together on the first date ? ellie : i did not mean that the way it sounded . damian and i spent the evening at the observatory . maxie : that 's a relief . ellie : i 'm a member of the port charles astronomers club . we had a spectacular view of venus . right now , it 's only 4 degrees north of the moon , so , with clear skies -- maxie : of venus . ellie : well , in addition to the whole , ever - changing panorama of the night sky . but that 's not what you meant by that . uh , i take it you 're relieved that damian and i did n't have intercourse ? spinelli : you know , while jason is the truest of friends and mentors , he 's not overly communicative , so , i mean , there 's plenty he chooses not to share . sam : such as ? spinelli : [ choking ] could i trouble you for a glass of water ? i am really dehydrated after a long night of -- sam : spinelli , it 's obvious you 're stalling ! spinelli : no , no ! i assure you , i am legitimately parched . i had an evening full of diverting conversation at the observatory -- sam : can you please just tell me what 's going on with jason ? spinelli : look , you assume me to be in a position of knowledge that i do not have . sam : okay . well , then help me figure it out . spinelli : well , i 've been a little distracted as of late , so i may have missed some details here and there , so maybe you could enlighten me as to the nature of your concern ? sam : okay . jason came over , and he said that he had something important to tell me , and then it did n't have anything to do with the lies that elizabeth said about the two of them being together . spinelli : i was n't aware that elizabeth had spoken untruths . sam : oh , yeah , she tried to manipulate me into going through with the divorce . spinelli : how did you learn of this deception ? sam : 'cause she came here herself and gave a full confession . that 's really not the point , though . spinelli : yeah , but it is encouraging that jason 's heart has not been captured by another . sam : getting a little off - topic here . spinelli : oh , i disagree ! i mean , it seems that you and jason are having a bit of a thaw , and that -- sam : whatever jason came to say , he did n't say it , and i think you know what it is ! spinelli : why would i ? sam : because if he were to confide in anyone , it would be you . jason : has heather made any attempt to contact you ? steve : not since the last time she called me from ferncliff during the pathogen scare . jason : she 's fixated on you . it would just , you know , make sense that she would try to get in touch with you . steve : well , come on in . feel free to search the place . look , i already told the police they have my full cooperation . the same goes for you . i mean , anyone who can find my mother and return her to ferncliff is doing me a favor . jason : i 'm sorry . i just -- i had to check . steve : why ? what 's happened ? jason : i - i ca n't get into that . steve : is this about the baby ? look , i 'm the reason you know about tea delgado . and the fact is , she had a baby on the same night in the same approximate location as sam , and you seem to think that my mother made a switch . jason : okay . it 's -- it 's confirmed . steve : how is that possible ? jason : the dna test . the baby ms . delgado took back to llanview is sam 's . steve : does ms . delgado know about this ? jason : john mcbain went to tell her , but your mother was already there . steve : in llanview ? jason : she convinced ms . delgado to hire her as a nanny . now the baby 's gone -- and so is heather . mcbain : webber was using her cousin susan moore 's name as an alias . tea needed childcare , and heather -- `` susan `` -- she had references . anna : yeah , but heather 's used a forger before . i 'm not surprised she 'd go back to doing it again . mcbain : now heather 's taken the baby , and she 's disappeared , all right ? llanview police are looking everywhere . they 're searching . they 're in the train stations , they 're at the airports , but they got nothing . so i was thinking maybe she came back here . maybe she came to someplace she 'd know . maybe she 's been seen in port charles . anna : no , nothing . nothing so far . god , that poor woman -- tea . she must be out of her mind . there 's nothing more terrifying than thinking your child is in danger . mcbain : she blames herself . she thinks she should have seen through heather . anna : i know how she feels . duke : oh , robin -- you were such an engaging child . always so bright , so inquisitive . ' course , you were the center of your mother 's life . heather webber is responsible for all of this , that despicable woman . she gave your mother hope that you were alive . she checked herself in here , hoping that she would find you . so typical of anna . put herself at risk . broke my heart when i saw her on the monitor just before she opened the door of the decoy 's room . the look of joy on her face when she thought she was gon na find you . and the horrible loss and devastation when she realized it was just a mistake . i wanted to throw open the door and show you to her . but i ca n't . i ca n't do that . not yet . anna : i have now what i think is a personal vendetta against heather . that 's why i purposefully removed myself from the search for her , because the last thing i want is for that psycho bitch to get off on a technicality . mcbain : but how do you really feel ? anna : [ chuckles ] how i feel is , i wish i had my old job , where i could terminate with extreme prejudice . mcbain : i understand the impulse . anna : and now she 's abducted a child . mcbain : yeah , looks that way . anna : but i 'm missing something . why did she go to llanview ? i mean , is this , uh -- random , or did she take this particular child for a reason ? i mean , what is the connection between tea delgado and heather ? carly : okay , i -- todd : breakfast is served . carly : wow . this is so nice , but i have to get home to josslyn . todd : joss is fine . she 's had cereal with a cut up banana . she 's on her way to preschool . carly : you talked to my nanny ? todd : are you kidding ? mercedes is my new b.f.f . carly : well , that 's great . i mean , honestly , thank you , but i have to get going . todd : carly , i went to all the trouble of calling room service . we 've got scrambled eggs -- firm but not dry -- extra - crispy bacon . we 've got wheat toast , seasonal fruit , perfectly ripe . we 've got juice , no pulp , and half caf , half decaf . carly : you really have to work on your stalking issues , you know ? todd : oh , no , i 've completely dealt with those . now i 'm just very observant . carly : thank you . todd : you 're welcome . carly : i 'm just not really hungry after finding out your boyfriend 's been cheating on you for months . todd : okay , this is a perfectly good meal . can we not ruin it by talking about that worm ? carly : i ca n't help it . i ca n't stop thinking that there 's just something else that johnny 's not telling me . duke : i miss our talks , robin . you were so perceptive as a child . although sometimes you used to worry me . i thought you could see right through me when i was n't being entirely honest . well , i never intended any malice . i had the same motive then as i have now . your mother -- i promise you , i will reunite you with anna . but not now . it has to be carefully orchestrated . dr. obrecht : it 's getting late . duke : i know . i wanted to tell her my plans , even though i know she ca n't hear me . dr. obrecht : blame the americans -- those incompetents at ferncliff . she has been rendered comatose thanks to their negligence . duke : well , yes , but to be entirely fair , the psychiatrist was an australian , although a total incompetent . dr. obrecht : to have exposed her to such a punishing dose of electroshock , the results are not surprising . unfortunately , they may be irreversible . duke : that 's why she must remain here . she 's in no condition to be reunited with her mother . anna : does tea have any idea why she was targeted by heather ? you know , did she take this child for a particular reason ? mcbain : heather and tea crossed paths the night of the storm last june , all right ? not far from heather 's preferred base of operations on route 59 . anna : the shack ? mcbain : the shack , right . the same time tea , she 's giving birth to her child at a bus stop at the side of the road -- anna : oh , god . mcbain : but the baby 's not breathing , so todd runs off with the baby , searching for some help . anna : and heather would have been there because she was burying anthony zacchara 's body . mcbain : manning finds his way to the shack , and there , someone performs infant cpr . anna : heather ? oh . well , that would explain the connection between heather and todd . mcbain : part of it , anyway . anna : but what happened that night that would give heather such a hold over todd manning ? todd : johnny cheated on you because that 's who he is . he 's a spineless coward . he only married connie to get back at sonny . that should tell you exactly who johnny zacchara is . carly : can we not go there ? todd : what ? johnny and connie are perfect for one another . names are all rhymey , and they have their own particular misery that i hope they inflict on one another for the rest of their lives . carly : everyone 's thinking that johnny took advantage of kate 's mental illness . todd : okay . he did 'cause he 's a dirtbag , and you can do better . carly : the marriage makes sense from connie 's perspective . she has to marry johnny so sonny ca n't throw her into shadybrook , but why johnny ? todd : you are a beautiful , sexy , rich woman . did i say that you were beautiful ? you 're beautiful . you own your own business . you have so much going for you . you can do better than johnny zacchara . much better . steve : i mean , i wish i could say that the child will be okay , but with my mother , there 's no telling . does sam know ? jason : i was about to tell her . then i got a call about heather kidnapping the baby . steve : so sam does n't know her son is still alive . jason : i just did n't think it was fair to tell sam right now when all she can do is worry and be afraid . sam : you 're really disappointing me , spinelli . you would lie to me , your partner ? spinelli : look , i can not withhold what i do not know , and since jason has not made me privy to this hypothetical important information , there 's nothing that i can tell you . sam : i do n't believe you . i think your first loyalty is to jason . spinelli : no , that is not true . i -- i am loyal to you both , as evidenced by my continued efforts to help you get past your differences and reunite ! sam : okay . well , it would help to know what 's going on with jason . spinelli : okay . well , you said yourself that he came over here with the intention of addressing the subject , right ? sam : yes , but we were interrupted because kristina was in trouble . spinelli : oh , is she okay ? sam : yes , she 's fine . stop trying to change the subject . spinelli : well , forgive me , but you brought it up . i -- sam : focus , spinelli , please ! help me figure out what jason was trying to tell me last night ! spinelli : i do n't have psychic powers . i ca n't tell you with any certainty . sam : okay , well , listen . he got a phone call , and then he left with no explanation . was he calling you ? were you on the other end ? spinelli : no , no . he was definitely not . i was at the observatory with my -- she 's a friend . we were stargazing -- or , she was . i was more admiring her profile . sam : okay , i think it 's really great that you -- spinelli : i 'm not implying that we 're in a relationship ! it 's just a first date . sam : well , jason got a phone call , and he left . where did he go ? spinelli : i have no idea . but i 'm sure that once he 's taken care of what he needs to take care of , he 'll talk to you . i 'll be at the office , okay ? sam : you are not going anywhere . spinelli : i 'm afraid i can be of no further help . sam : you have n't been of any help , anyway . i know you , spinelli ! you 're being all dodgy . you know something , and you 've got to tell me . maxie : why would i care what you and spinelli do in the dark ? ellie : well , just to clarify , we did , indeed , observe venus on display in the night sky . we did n't , however , have sexual relations . maxie : good . great ! i 'm , um -- sorry if i 'm being intrusive . ellie : no , the fault is mine . unfortunately , interpersonal skills are not really my strong point . i 'm a whiz in the lab , you know , but it 's easy to tell a ribose from a 2-deoxyribose . maxie : sure . do it all the time . ellie : but people and what they say or what they do n't say but they imply without words , it 's all very hard for me to decipher , so forgive me if i 've got this wrong , but it does seem like you 're concerned with the possibility of damian and i having intercourse last night , which just seems odd , considering the fact that you 're married to that guy who 's in jail -- the wrench murderer . maxie : oh , i would n't call him the wrench murderer . there was only one wrench . and besides , it was like a one - time thing . he had a plea bargain . he 's only in prison for like five years . ellie : oh , that 's got to be a great relief . maxie : seriously . when you consider he could have gotten like 20 to life . ellie : ooh . maxie : but that 's not the point . that is not the point . the point is , i 'm very married . um -- spinelli 's just important to me . he 's been hurt in the past , and i do n't want that to happen again . spinelli : i do n't know anything -- not a thing . i 'm a blank slate , a tabula rasa . now , if you 'll excuse me , i -- sam : no , i wo n't . you 've got that guilty look about you . spinelli : well , i confess , i did have three doughnuts for breakfast , which is far above my allotted carb count . sam : wait a minute . is this about that case that you were working on ? spinelli : what case ? sam : the baby case . i went in jason 's , and you were on the phone , and i asked you about it , and you got all squirrely with me . spinelli : are you calling me a rodent ? sam : you were on the phone with jason that day , were n't you ? what baby were you talking about ? duke : no change ? dr. obrecht : i 'm sorry . duke : i know you miss your mother , robin . i know how much she misses you . be such a comfort if i could bring you both together , but -- i ca n't do that . i ca n't do that yet . it 's time for -- a different reunion . anna : so why is todd under heather 's thumb ? you said you might know -- but that , however it fell out , somebody 's gon na get badly hurt . mcbain : yeah . that 's an understatement . anna : well , i -- all i know now is that todd met heather in the woods . and now she 's run off with tea 's baby . am i right ? mcbain : the baby is n't tea 's son . he 's sam morgan 's . steve : you 've got to tell sam . jason : i ca n't tell sam yet . steve : it 's one thing withholding the information while you 're still investigating , but you know the truth now . jason : the truth is that sam 's child was kidnapped by a woman who hates her . and i do n't want to put sam through that . it 's better to wait . i 'll tell sam about her son when he 's safe . spinelli : i 'm sorry . i really ca n't discuss this . it 's confidential , but if you would like to confide in me about other things , like your misunderstanding with elizabeth , then i 'd be happy -- sam : it was n't really a misunderstanding . she lied . she wanted me to think there was more going on between her and jason . spinelli : that makes sense . but why would she confess that to you ? sam : yeah , i do n't know , spinelli . i thought it was weird , too . she kept saying that she could n't lie to another mother , which did n't make any sense because -- i 'm not a mother . spinelli : you -- sam , you most certainly are . okay , los -- losing a child does n't change the fact that -- that you carried him , you bore him , you loved him . you will always be his mother . sam : thank you for that . spinelli : well , it 's true . sam : okay . well , it 's not answering my question . spinelli : i 'm afraid only jason can do that . sam : spinelli , when i mentioned that to jason , all he could say is that -- `` is that all elizabeth said ? `` spinelli : perhaps he was afraid that harsh words were spoken ? sam : or perhaps jason and elizabeth are keeping something from me . it 's a secret , and you know what it is . spinelli : yeah , it 's -- it 's an emotional time , you know , with the strain of the pathogen and what 's going on with you . you know , i think everyone 's just a little -- a little fuzzy and -- sam : listen to me ! enough , spinelli ! i know you 're keeping something from me , and you need to tell me before i hurt you ! ellie : i would never hurt damian . he 's wonderful . maxie : yeah , he is . ellie : but i think it 's really nice that you still care . most former girlfriends would n't . maxie : i would n't consider myself a former girlfriend . it 's a little more complex than that . you see -- ellie : i know . damian explained . maxie : he did ? yeah , he was madly in love with you , and you married someone else . you wanted to stay friends , but he could n't help but pine for you . he finally made the decision to distance himself , and he 's just recently begun dating . maxie : spinelli told you all of that ? ellie : he 's so honest . it 's one of the things i like best about damian . actually , there 's a lot i like about him . maxie : well , just be careful . you do n't want to become the rebound girl . ellie : oh , no . i 'm in no hurry . if anything , i hope we take our time . and perhaps a real relationship will develop . he 's one of the only people who can really follow my train of thought . maxie : well , what about you ? do you understand all the things that come out of spinelli 's mouth ? you know , when he starts talking about ruling the internet and particle physics and string theory , hmm ? do you understand that ? ellie : yeah , most of it . his computer skills are epic , though . way beyond mine . maxie : yeah , way beyond anyone 's . did spinelli tell you about that time he lost his mojo and i helped him find it ? ellie : yeah . he is so grateful for you . i just do n't think he wants to be intrusive , you know ? or cause any friction between you and the wrench murderer . maxie : i told you , he 's not the wrench murderer . it 's more like the wrench manslaughterer . ellie : even so , i 'm sure you miss him so much . maxie : well , at some -- yes . you 're right . i do miss my husband a lot . ellie : well , this works great , then . maxie : you 've lost me . ellie : well , if damian and i are in a relationship , then you do n't have to worry about him pining after you . and without the added pressure of his unrequited feelings for you , you guys can go back to being friends again , which is exactly what you wanted , right ? anna : sam 's baby is alive and being passed off as tea 's ? how ? do you know this for a fact ? mcbain : yeah . i did the swab on little victor . anna : tea gave you permission to do that ? mcbain : no , i did n't want to say anything till i had proof . anna : okay . dna test was obtained illegally , then . mcbain : it was n't meant to hold up in court . but it 's definitive . sam morgan is that little boy 's mother . anna : do you know how the switch occurred ? mcbain : think so . manning went searching in the woods with a baby , the one we talked about earlier . at the same time , sam found her way to the woods . she went to the shack . she 's just given birth , right ? and she 's -- she 's suffering from shock and blood loss , all right ? so she puts her baby down , and she passes out . anna : and heather 's there . because she 's dealing with anthony 's body . mcbain : yes . at that point , webber and manning conspire to switch the babies . anna : wow . well , my money 's on heather . i bet it was her idea . mcbain : manning 's no better . you know what ? he had already killed tea 's husband . and there 's no way he wanted to tell her the truth that the baby did n't make it . anna : what kind of monster takes a child from his own mother ? duke : anna devane is a stubborn woman . mm . we clashed from the first time we met . dr. obrecht : why is that ? duke : well , let 's just say we were from opposite sides . but that did n't stop us . nothing could , for a time . dr. obrecht : what happened ? duke : circumstances -- tore us apart . but now those circumstances do n't exist , so -- i can go back to her . carly : i have done better . i had jax . i mean , how is that for a joke ? i stalled that divorce for close to a year , came up with tons of excuses , and then i sign away my marriage with jax for johnny zacchara . god , i feel like such an idiot . todd : why ? you just made a gesture in good faith . carly : and jason knew . jason knew that being with johnny was a bad idea . todd : jason , jason , jason , jason , jason -- carly : jason always knows when i 'm not trusting my own instincts . he knows when i 'm lying to myself , and he told me that being with johnny was wrong and that i should dump him . you know what else is really great about jason ? todd : no , tell me . carly : he does n't tell me , `` i told you so . `` todd : that 's -- okay . why are you mad at me ? i 'm not the guy you should be mad at here . carly : you 're right . i 'm mad at myself . todd : which is ridiculous . johnny cheated on you . johnny lied to your face . you want to be mad at somebody , be mad at johnny . do n't be mad at me . and do n't be mad at yourself . carly : you 're right . you 're right , because you 've been so wonderful and kind to me , and i 've taken advantage of you long enough . i need to go home and get dressed and go to work so i can spend my day not trying to , like , burst into tears the whole time or throw something at somebody , and -- todd : why do n't you call in sick ? call in sick . carly : call in sick ? just not go ? todd : you 're the boss . you can do that . come on . i 'll put some popcorn in the microwave . we 'll throw a movie on . carly : with you ? todd : yeah , with me . carly : you have a paper to run . todd : okay , do n't tell anybody , but they can actually survive the whole day there without me . popcorn and a b - movie with a beautiful blond . i 'm not stupid . i 'm not gon na give that up . carly : [ chuckles ] i do n't feel very beautiful right now . todd : trust me -- you 're a knockout . so what do you want ? you want western ? you want zombies ? what do you -- oh , here -- immediately . come on . `` my boyfriend was an alien . `` carly : [ laughs ] todd : it 's perfect . carly : does it really say that ? todd : not only says that , that 's what we 're gon na watch . here . i 'll start the popcorn . carly : okay . todd -- todd : yes ? carly : thank you . todd : you 're welcome . it 's all gon na be okay . anna : okay , i 'm heather , and i disappear . why do i go to the trouble of kidnapping a child ? unless there 's something -- that she wants from that particular child . truthfully , i 'm -- kind of too afraid to find out what . steve : this is my mother we 're talking about , jason . even if you found her , there 's no guarantee this baby 's gon na be okay . jason : i understand that . steve : the least she could do is sell him to the highest bidder . she 's done it before . jason : heather 's resources are limited . there 's only so far that she can run . and now that she 's kidnapped a child , that 's a federal crime , and the feds are gon na be after her , too . steve : which will only make her more dangerous . jason : which is exactly why sam ca n't know about any of this . sam : talk ! spinelli : would you actually incur bodily harm to your friend and business partner ? sam : people have been lying to me for weeks ! if you do n't tell me what 's going on , i just may snap ! spinelli : okay , i have to tell you , though -- my pugilistic skills have improved . jason 's been training me . or , it was actually just once , and i was felled by a wayward punch , and -- sam : i can take you , spinelli ! you know it , and i know it ! so you better tell me what 's going on before you lose -- spinelli : okay , you 've broken me ! i - i surrender . i surrender . sam : so you admit it ? you know what 's going on ? spinelli : i - i know -- i know that there is the possibility of something . it was a theory that was disproved . it just turned out to be a mistake . mcbain : hey , anna , we got to do everything we can to find this kid , all right ? after that -- heather can go to hell , for all i care . anna : tea does n't know the child is n't hers ? mcbain : after we found out that the baby was missing and that the psychopath that she had hired did it -- i did n't think it was the right time to tell her . anna : oh , god , that poor woman . she 's probably terrified that some harm 's gon na come to that little boy or that she 's never gon na see him again . and then if we 're lucky enough to find him , give him back to her , and then tell her that -- he 's not hers ?

matt : you asked spinelli because you thought that would make me jealous . maxie : spinelli is my friend . matt : who is in love with you . anyone can see that . maxie : so you are jealous ? matt : i 'm exhausted , because a relationship is supposed to be a two - way street . there 's supposed to be give and take . all i do -- i give . that 's it . maxie : i give back all the time . matt : it 's all about you , maxie . the article was even all about you -- `` the woman behind the man . `` maxie : i did that for you . i was trying to get you exposure that you ca n't get in some dry medical journal , okay ?

ethan : no . no . even you would n't kill your own daughter . luke : do n't count on it . there 's not a sentimental bone in this bitch 's body . helena : oh , on the contrary . now , what could be more sympathetic , more sentimental than my waiting decades to take your son the same way you took mine ?

[ chuckles ] perfect symmetry ... do n't you think ? luke : [ chuckles ] i 'm not seeing it . ethan loves your daughter . laura hated your sons . helena : that insipid woman . she was their downfall , just as irina will be ethan 's . cassandra : no , i wo n't have any part of your sick and twisted plan . helena : oh , my poor child . you were not just a part of the plan . it is your whole reason for being . mac : maxie has n't come home from the benefit ? spinelli : like i said , um , my best guess is that she 's off somewhere attempting ... mac : spinelli , this is important . maxie needs to be told . spinelli : well , i - i 'd be happy to convey a message . mac : no , you ca n't . uh , she has to hear this from me . her cousin robin is dead . spinelli : what ? dr. robin is gone ? maxie : i made a mistake , okay ? i 'm sorry . matt : you 're -- you 're sorry ? elizabeth is raising two kids on her own , and you got her suspended . maxie : it 's not like she 'll be living on the streets , okay ? there 's plenty of people that can help her . matt : i 'm not feeling the apology yet . maxie : you know what , matt ? it was your fault . you 're the one that was spending all that time with her . matt : we 're co - workers , okay ? at least we were , until someone decided to go to monica and tell her that elizabeth was taking pills from the hospital ... maxie : you are more than just co - workers with her , okay ? you spent all that time with her , and you flirted with her . you told her all about your research . you took her out to dinner . you practically chased after her . matt : you really -- you really want to get into this right now ? maxie : i got jealous , matt , okay ? any self - respecting girlfriend -- matt : that 's it ! that 's it ! i 'm done . i 'm -- maxie : are you okay ? matt : oh , my god .

what are you talking -- maxie : shh ! um , the point is that elizabeth did not deserve to be suspended , and you should give her her job back and give her a raise . all better . jason : i do . i do . i appreciate everything robin 's done for me . patrick : if you want to repay robin , make your life worth saving . we go in an hour . a nurse will be in to prep you . sam : well , this is it . by the end of the night , this will all be behind us . monica : uh , maybe we should ask dr. morucci to do -- sam : patrick is here , and he 's the best . he should do it . patrick : yeah . why would i need another surgeon ?

matt : you asked spinelli because you thought that would make me jealous . maxie : spinelli is my friend . matt : who is in love with you . anyone can see that . maxie : so you are jealous ? matt : i 'm exhausted , because a relationship is supposed to be a two - way street . there 's supposed to be give and take . all i do -- i give . that 's it . maxie : i give back all the time . matt : it 's all about you , maxie . the article was even all about you -- `` the woman behind the man . `` maxie : i did that for you . i was trying to get you exposure that you ca n't get in some dry medical journal , okay ?

ethan : no . no . even you would n't kill your own daughter . luke : do n't count on it . there 's not a sentimental bone in this bitch 's body . helena : oh , on the contrary . now , what could be more sympathetic , more sentimental than my waiting decades to take your son the same way you took mine ? however , if irina refuses to cooperate -- ethan : no ! no , do n't do it ! kill me with a knife , a gun , a corkscrew -- i do n't care . just , please , do n't hurt her . helena : a lovesick fool , just like his father . think about it . think about killing ethan , shooting him , as the lesser of two evils . now , i 'm sure his death will be quick , and then you 'll have your freedom and the life you 've always craved . ethan : cassandra , do it . it 's your only chance . cassandra : all right . helena : wise choice . hand my daughter the gun . cassandra : goodbye , mother ! cassandra : [ gasping ] helena : [ chuckles ] it was a test . i suspected you would fail . cassandra : blanks ?

[ scene_break ] natalie : [ breathing deeply ] see ? see , i 'm fine . i 'm fine . it was probably just something i ate or did n't . you know , i 'm not due for several weeks . it 's probably just braxton - hicks , like you told jessica , so stop trying to scare me , okay ? look , i know that you want to ruin things for me and john , but you need to understand something : this was never planned . brody and i did n't set out to sleep together , and john will understand that , and i would have told him forever ago if it were n't for jessica ! marty : well , so in other words , you did n't trust him to keep your secret . there 's no way out of this . you 're a lying , lying cheat , and john deserves better than you . natalie : wha -- you , marty , really ? it 's over , marty . time to move on , okay ? ooh ! oooh ! marty : all right , 5 minutes apart . it 's official . you are in labor . natalie : you 're wrong ! marty : no ! and if the contractions come hard and fast like this , it 's not good especially since you 're early . this baby at best is gon na come premature , which could mean complications , unless , of course , we can get you to a hospital . natalie : you 're not going anywhere . [ scene_break ] jessica : please tell me the baby 's all right ? brody : hey , the baby 's fine . viki : oh , well , that 's wonderful . clint : doctor , just tell us . what 's going on ? viki : is this because of the hepatitis `` c `` ? vivian : luckily no , but the sonogram confirmed that jessica has a condition called placenta accreta . clint : what 's that ? vivian : well , what it means is that the placenta has difficulty separating from the uterine wall . clint : okay , so what do you do ? how do you fix that ? vivian : my recommendation is an immediate c - section . clint : okay , great , let 's do it . viki : clint , this is jessie and brody 's decision . brody : so the c - section , that will prevent any more complications ? jessica and the baby will be okay ? vivian : given the underlying condition , i 'm afraid there is no guarantee . in fact , there are serious risks . [ scene_break ] john : uh , bo , you know , your personal life is none of my business . i 'd like to help -- bo : i know , i know , but i 'm just looking for a little objectivity right now . i ran it by balsom . now , he thinks that maybe inez slipped something into my beer to knock me out so that she could claim that we 'd had sex . i do n't think we did . john : okay . so the question is , why would she do that ? bo : hmm . [ scene_break ] dani : um , well , she mostly made it seem like it was my dad . inez : your mother suggested that your father -- her husband killed eddie ? dani : there was evidence . his cufflink was found at the scene . but she also named james as a suspect , d.a . buchanan because her hair was found there , and she would have motive because of the kidnapping . she even suggested marty saybrooke . inez : the psychiatrist ? dani : yeah . she and my dad , they have a lot of history , mostly bad . anyway , she made it seem like there was a bunch of other suspects and that the police , you know , they rushed to judgment when they arrested nate . inez : well , let 's just hope that they agree and the judge lets it go . [ scene_break ] téa : yeah , my money 's on inez . i mean , come on . she had obvious motive , protecting her family . the murder weapon was found in her apartment . and the kid 's not talking 'cause he wants to protect his mom . it 's actually kind of sweet . todd : no . it 's pathetic . throwing his life away for a woman who should have gotten a restraining order out on eddie the second he rolled into town . téa : a restraining order ? the todd i know shoots first and lawyers up later . todd : well , now that i have you , i ... i sue first . téa : mmm . in that case , i 'll be doubling my fee effective immediately . todd : you know what ? this is not very funny because if this kid goes to jail , i 'm gon na have two daughters sitting around crying about their jailbirds , so you better talk to the judge , make sure that inez goes down . téa : i 'm here to defend nate , not prosecute his mother . todd : and if your motion is denied and the case goes to trial ? téa : then i 'll say something . you know , it 's actually kind of sweet . he 's trying to defend , you know , protect his mom . todd : a woman who would throw him under the bus like this ? well , what kind of a mother would let her son take the rap for her ? [ scene_break ] woman : sorry i was late . i heard delgado 's motion to dismiss was impressive . nora : oh , it was pure theatrics . she 's not gon na get away with it on my watch . woman : you 've got something against nate salinger ? nora : no , not a thing . his mother i 'm not so fond of , but hey , last i checked , murder was still a crime in the commonwealth . [ scene_break ] inez : dani , would you mind if i had a moment with nate just for a sec ? dani : oh , yeah , sure . i 'm sorry . inez : do n't be sorry . no , we 're really happy you 're here , and we 're very grateful to your mom . dani : well , she nailed it . i just want this over . nate : me , too . inez : we have to talk . [ scene_break ] bo : to be honest ? i have no idea why inez would drug me and claim that we had sex . john : you want me to look into this ? would n't have to be official . or am i not reading you right ? are we talking about a criminal investigation ? [ scene_break ] inez : we 'll talk later . téa : i have no idea why inez would allow her son to sacrifice himself for her . except it 's still early . maybe she 's hoping it wo n't come to that . todd : so you think she 's banking on the judge throwing out the case ? téa : well , who is n't ? i do n't want to have to go to the judge with my suspicions ? dani : what suspicions ? [ scene_break ] dorian : you have a suspicious mind . echo : well , i have to in order to survive around here . dorian : and you 've been misinformed . viki and i do absolutely nothing together , let alone plot against you . echo : please , dorian , you and viki have been thick as thieves since i hit town . she put you up to that little stunt on christmas , did n't she ? but now it 's going to cost you . and for what ? charlie and i are closer than ever now . [ scene_break ] jessica : so what are the risks ? vivian : right now my concern is what happens if we do n't section you . say we wait and we let you go to term . if your placenta tears during labor , you could hemorrhage , and if i ca n't stop the bleeding , then we need to do a hysterectomy . brody : we got to do the c - section . you ca n't go through that . jessica : but it 's too early . the baby will be really premature . vivian : yes . jessica : well , is n't that dangerous ? vivian : there are risks associated with premature births . the baby may not be ready to be born . [ scene_break ] natalie : see , i 'm fine . just braxton - hicks , like i said . marty : right . natalie : please , marty , you 're not a o.b . you 're not even a good shrink . marty : fine . have it your way . just be careful driving . natalie : like you care about me . marty : i care about the baby . natalie : i 'll , uh , i 'll come back for you as soon as i tell john the truth . natalie : [ shivers ] oh . oh ! i think my water just broke . [ scene_break ] dani : i know you named a lot of people , but do you actually know who killed eddie ? téa : no . that 's not even the point , okay ? i 'm just trying to defend nate . bailiff : all rise . court is back in session . judge : be seated . in the matter of the commonwealth vs. nathaniel salinger , i 've made a decision . i 'm inclined to grant ms. delgado 's motion to dismiss . nora : your honor , if we may , we have a very solid case against nathaniel salinger . judge : and evidence against a half dozen other suspects . ms. delgado 's point was well taken . we ca n't rush to judgment , certainly not with this case . i recommend your office go back to the officers in charge and narrow down your list . the murderer is out there . once you can prove beyond a reasonable doubt that your suspect is guilty , come back to me and i 'll be more than happy to sentence him or her . until then , case dismissed . nate : your honor , wait . [ scene_break ] bo : ah , no . i think we 're getting a little ahead of ourselves here , john , talking about criminal investigation . and plus you got enough on your mind right now . natalie 's about to have a baby . john : hey , we got a couple weeks . bo : well , where is she anyway ? i thought she 'd be here for her sister . [ scene_break ] [ natalie moaning ] marty : yep . your water broke . natalie : okay , i 'm in labor . it does n't matter . i 've got a long time before this baby 's gon na pop out . what are you doing ? [ scene_break ] vivian : when a baby is born prematurely , there are always risks . if the baby 's lungs are n't strong enough to allow the baby to breathe independently -- brody : is n't there some way you can test to see if the lungs are ready ? i mean , ca n't you somehow test the baby ? vivian : in the womb , generally speaking , yes , but given jessica 's condition , it might make things worse . jessica : okay . well , how about we just wait a little longer ? you know , i 'll stay here , and i 'll promise not to move , and i know that you can give me something for the pain -- vivian : so you 're still cramping ? jessica : well , it 's just a little twinge , and i know that you can stop it ... brody : jessica . jessica : just a little while longer so the baby 's lungs can develop . vivian : jessica , you have a beautiful little girl at home and my first responsibility is to make sure that her mom is okay . my recommendation stays the same : we do a c - section now . but i need your consent . jessica : no . i 'm not gon na put the baby at risk . brody : i can not lose you . vivian : i 'll give you a few minutes . clint : uh , dr. wright ? vivian : yes ? clint : why is this happening ? she did n't have this problem with bree . vivian : it would appear that the placenta accreta was brought on by some scarring in jessica 's abdomen . according to her medical chart , it 's probably from the gunshot wound . charlie : oh , my god . [ scene_break ] echo : yeah , you and viki and your little santa suit might have kept me away from chuckles on christmas eve , but we were right back together again on new year 's . like i said , we 're closer than ever now . we 're not just parents . we 're grandparents . and now he 's gon na help me with my little problem . dorian : your lack of style , morals , integrity ? echo : ha ha ! no . my drinking problem . which reminds me , i should get going because i am meeting him at his aa meeting at the church . and you ca n't do anything about it . it 's exclusive . for drunks only . dorian : oh , this is a new low even for you -- exploiting a man 's drinking problem . echo : this coming from the very same woman who forced a bottle of booze down charlie 's throat . huh ! write the check , dorian , and leave charlie to me . [ scene_break ] viki : why do n't we give jessie and brody a little privacy so they can talk this over , hmm ? clint : what 's there to talk about ? viki : clint , it is their decision . they will do what is best . sweetheart ? come on . clint : banks , this is your fault ! you 're the one who shot her , and if anything happens to my daughter or my grandchild -- viki : okay , you stop it ! stop it .

[ scene_break ] viki : the shooting was an accident . clint : an accident . he went there with a gun . viki : yes , to get rid of mitch , not jessica , and as far as that goes , it was dorian 's fault . she bought the gun . she made him do it . clint : yeah , we all wanted mitch dead for killing jared , but to botch it the way he did and then shoot jessica -- viki : that was dorian , too . she grabbed his arm . clint : and what the hell was he doing with dorian ? viki : oh , you 're a fine one to talk . clint : how can you defend her when our daughter is in there losing her baby ? viki : she 's not losing her baby ! charlie : will you stop it , both of you ! okay , clint is right , i never should have gone after mitch . it is my fault , and i will be sorry about this for the rest of my life . clint : and you should be . viki : stop it . charlie : okay , i should n't be here . viki : what ? no . charlie , do n't ! oh ! well , was n't that productive ? clint : why the hell are you mad at me ? you should be mad at charlie . viki : he deserves your respect and your compassion . clint : it 'll be a cold day in hell . viki : our daughter is in there agonizing over something that has no good solution , and all you can do is take your frustration out on my husband ? you owe him an apology !

[ scene_break ] jessica : charlie , could you just raise the bed up a little bit ? viki : no . the doctor told you to lie still . jessica : mom , i am lying still which is why i 'm not in a car headed home . natalie 's at home . she 's resting . why ca n't i rest with her ? viki : because natalie did n't have contractions . look , i know you 're a grown woman and an experienced mother , but as your mother , i 'm asking you to please lie still until the doctor comes back with test results . jessica : mom , i feel fine . charlie : what , no more cramps ? jessica : well , they 're not as often and they 're not nearly as severe . i hardly notice them . viki : okay , that means the `` lying still `` is working . charlie : your mother 's right . jessica : so you guys are ganging up on me ? viki : yah . ha ha . thank you , sweetheart . [ jessica sighs ] [ scene_break ] dorian : echo , what a surprise . come in . echo : thank you . dorian : and here i thought you were spending all your time flinging yourself at charlie banks . echo : for you . dorian : and what 's that ? echo : it 's what you owe me , and i want a check now or i 'm shipping your mayoral ass to the hoosegow ... your honor . [ scene_break ] clint : jesse . viki : oh . clint : i am so sorry . i had no idea that you were in the hospital , honey . i was out of town on business . jessica : dad , it 's okay . i am fine . brody thinks it 's a false alarm . i 'm sure he 's right . and i feel fine , okay ? there was no reason for you to rush back on my account . it 's okay . clint : you 're my girl . nothing more important than that . you ought to know that by now . vivian : hey , brody , i got the results of jessica 's tests . brody : oh , she 's been feeling much better . vivian : i 'm glad she 's feeling more comfortable . brody : yeah , so everything 's fine , right ? it 's nothing . vivian : i wish that were true . i 'm sorry , brody . [ scene_break ] natalie : [ exhales deeply ] i am not gon na let you ruin things for me and john just so you can tell him that i tried to intentionally hurt him because i did n't , and i 'm going to explain that to him . oh . oh ! ooh ! marty : natalie , you can lie all you want , but you are in labor . [ scene_break ] dorian : excuse me , you expect me to pay you ... echo : $ 8,389.22 . dorian : ha ! for what ? echo : damages accrued on christmas eve . i mean , it 's all itemized . all the receipts are attached . let 's see , there was the dry cleaning bill . my boots were destroyed . they had to be replaced . there was the manicurist , the chiropractor , the masseuse , and do you realize i had to go to a hair stylist to have all of my highlights totally redone . and i have n't even added the $ 10,000 you owe me for the photo shoot . dorian : what photo shoot ? you did n't take a single picture . echo : well , of course i did n't because you locked me on the roof ! i nearly froze to death ! dorian : i did nothing of the sort ! i left you out there on the roof while i went downstairs and freshened my makeup , and the next thing i knew , you were coming down the chimney , destroying it . shall i present you with the bills to repair the flue ? the mason 's bill alone -- echo : save it , dorian ! you and viki worked up this little scheme to keep me out of the way . [ scene_break ] charlie : well , why do n't we grab a cup of coffee and let clint have a little time with jessica . viki : oh , okay . jessica : hey , dr. wright . vivian : hi , jessica . jessica : hi . so did you get my test results ? i mean , i know i 'm not in labor . i feel so much better . i feel great . so -- viki : jessie , honey , why do n't you let the doctor tell you what she found out . vivian : well , you 're right , you 're not in labor , although you are two centimeters dilated . jessica : why ? i mean , i 'm not having the baby , at least not yet , and i feel so much better . brody , tell her . i mean , i look better , do n't i ? okay , now it 's your turn to tell me that everything 's going to be okay . [ scene_break ] natalie : [ breathing deeply ] see ? see , i 'm fine . i 'm fine . it was probably just something i ate or did n't . you know , i 'm not due for several weeks . it 's probably just braxton - hicks , like you told jessica , so stop trying to scare me , okay ? look , i know that you want to ruin things for me and john , but you need to understand something : this was never planned . brody and i did n't set out to sleep together , and john will understand that , and i would have told him forever ago if it were n't for jessica ! marty : well , so in other words , you did n't trust him to keep your secret . there 's no way out of this . you 're a lying , lying cheat , and john deserves better than you . natalie : wha -- you , marty , really ? it 's over , marty . time to move on , okay ? ooh ! oooh ! marty : all right , 5 minutes apart . it 's official . you are in labor . natalie : you 're wrong ! marty : no ! and if the contractions come hard and fast like this , it 's not good especially since you 're early . this baby at best is gon na come premature , which could mean complications , unless , of course , we can get you to a hospital . natalie : you 're not going anywhere . [ scene_break ] jessica : please tell me the baby 's all right ? brody : hey , the baby 's fine . viki : oh , well , that 's wonderful . clint : doctor , just tell us . what 's going on ? viki : is this because of the hepatitis `` c `` ? vivian : luckily no , but the sonogram confirmed that jessica has a condition called placenta accreta . clint : what 's that ? vivian : well , what it means is that the placenta has difficulty separating from the uterine wall . clint : okay , so what do you do ? how do you fix that ? vivian : my recommendation is an immediate c - section . clint : okay , great , let 's do it . viki : clint , this is jessie and brody 's decision . brody : so the c - section , that will prevent any more complications ? jessica and the baby will be okay ? vivian : given the underlying condition , i 'm afraid there is no guarantee . in fact , there are serious risks . [ scene_break ] john : uh , bo , you know , your personal life is none of my business . i 'd like to help -- bo : i know , i know , but i 'm just looking for a little objectivity right now . i ran it by balsom . now , he thinks that maybe inez slipped something into my beer to knock me out so that she could claim that we 'd had sex . i do n't think we did . john : okay . so the question is , why would she do that ? bo : hmm . [ scene_break ] dani : um , well , she mostly made it seem like it was my dad . inez : your mother suggested that your father -- her husband killed eddie ? dani : there was evidence . his cufflink was found at the scene . but she also named james as a suspect , d.a . buchanan because her hair was found there , and she would have motive because of the kidnapping . she even suggested marty saybrooke . inez : the psychiatrist ? dani : yeah . she and my dad , they have a lot of history , mostly bad . anyway , she made it seem like there was a bunch of other suspects and that the police , you know , they rushed to judgment when they arrested nate . inez : well , let 's just hope that they agree and the judge lets it go . [ scene_break ] téa : yeah , my money 's on inez . i mean , come on . she had obvious motive , protecting her family . the murder weapon was found in her apartment . and the kid 's not talking 'cause he wants to protect his mom . it 's actually kind of sweet . todd : no . it 's pathetic . throwing his life away for a woman who should have gotten a restraining order out on eddie the second he rolled into town . téa : a restraining order ? the todd i know shoots first and lawyers up later . todd : well , now that i have you , i ... i sue first . téa : mmm . in that case , i 'll be doubling my fee effective immediately . todd : you know what ? this is not very funny because if this kid goes to jail , i 'm gon na have two daughters sitting around crying about their jailbirds , so you better talk to the judge , make sure that inez goes down . téa : i 'm here to defend nate , not prosecute his mother . todd : and if your motion is denied and the case goes to trial ? téa : then i 'll say something . you know , it 's actually kind of sweet . he 's trying to defend , you know , protect his mom . todd : a woman who would throw him under the bus like this ? well , what kind of a mother would let her son take the rap for her ? [ scene_break ] woman : sorry i was late . i heard delgado 's motion to dismiss was impressive . nora : oh , it was pure theatrics . she 's not gon na get away with it on my watch . woman : you 've got something against nate salinger ? nora : no , not a thing . his mother i 'm not so fond of , but hey , last i checked , murder was still a crime in the commonwealth . [ scene_break ] inez : dani , would you mind if i had a moment with nate just for a sec ? dani : oh , yeah , sure . i 'm sorry . inez : do n't be sorry . no , we 're really happy you 're here , and we 're very grateful to your mom . dani : well , she nailed it . i just want this over . nate : me , too . inez : we have to talk . [ scene_break ] bo : to be honest ? i have no idea why inez would drug me and claim that we had sex . john : you want me to look into this ? would n't have to be official . or am i not reading you right ? are we talking about a criminal investigation ? [ scene_break ] inez : we 'll talk later . téa : i have no idea why inez would allow her son to sacrifice himself for her . except it 's still early . maybe she 's hoping it wo n't come to that . todd : so you think she 's banking on the judge throwing out the case ? téa : well , who is n't ? i do n't want to have to go to the judge with my suspicions ? dani : what suspicions ? [ scene_break ] dorian : you have a suspicious mind . echo : well , i have to in order to survive around here . dorian : and you 've been misinformed . viki and i do absolutely nothing together , let alone plot against you . echo : please , dorian , you and viki have been thick as thieves since i hit town . she put you up to that little stunt on christmas , did n't she ? but now it 's going to cost you . and for what ? charlie and i are closer than ever now . [ scene_break ] jessica : so what are the risks ? vivian : right now my concern is what happens if we do n't section you . say we wait and we let you go to term . if your placenta tears during labor , you could hemorrhage , and if i ca n't stop the bleeding , then we need to do a hysterectomy . brody : we got to do the c - section . you ca n't go through that . jessica : but it 's too early . the baby will be really premature . vivian : yes . jessica : well , is n't that dangerous ? vivian : there are risks associated with premature births . the baby may not be ready to be born . [ scene_break ] natalie : see , i 'm fine . just braxton - hicks , like i said . marty : right . natalie : please , marty , you 're not a o.b . you 're not even a good shrink . marty : fine . have it your way . just be careful driving . natalie : like you care about me . marty : i care about the baby . natalie : i 'll , uh , i 'll come back for you as soon as i tell john the truth . natalie : [ shivers ] oh . oh ! i think my water just broke . [ scene_break ] dani : i know you named a lot of people , but do you actually know who killed eddie ? téa : no . that 's not even the point , okay ? i 'm just trying to defend nate . bailiff : all rise . court is back in session . judge : be seated . in the matter of the commonwealth vs. nathaniel salinger , i 've made a decision . i 'm inclined to grant ms. delgado 's motion to dismiss . nora : your honor , if we may , we have a very solid case against nathaniel salinger . judge : and evidence against a half dozen other suspects . ms. delgado 's point was well taken . we ca n't rush to judgment , certainly not with this case . i recommend your office go back to the officers in charge and narrow down your list . the murderer is out there . once you can prove beyond a reasonable doubt that your suspect is guilty , come back to me and i 'll be more than happy to sentence him or her . until then , case dismissed . nate : your honor , wait . [ scene_break ] bo : ah , no . i think we 're getting a little ahead of ourselves here , john , talking about criminal investigation . and plus you got enough on your mind right now . natalie 's about to have a baby . john : hey , we got a couple weeks . bo : well , where is she anyway ? i thought she 'd be here for her sister . [ scene_break ] [ natalie moaning ] marty : yep . your water broke . natalie : okay , i 'm in labor . it does n't matter . i 've got a long time before this baby 's gon na pop out . what are you doing ? [ scene_break ] vivian : when a baby is born prematurely , there are always risks . if the baby 's lungs are n't strong enough to allow the baby to breathe independently -- brody : is n't there some way you can test to see if the lungs are ready ? i mean , ca n't you somehow test the baby ? vivian : in the womb , generally speaking , yes , but given jessica 's condition , it might make things worse . jessica : okay . well , how about we just wait a little longer ? you know , i 'll stay here , and i 'll promise not to move , and i know that you can give me something for the pain -- vivian : so you 're still cramping ? jessica : well , it 's just a little twinge , and i know that you can stop it ... brody : jessica . jessica : just a little while longer so the baby 's lungs can develop . vivian : jessica , you have a beautiful little girl at home and my first responsibility is to make sure that her mom is okay . my recommendation stays the same : we do a c - section now . but i need your consent . jessica : no . i 'm not gon na put the baby at risk . brody : i can not lose you . vivian : i 'll give you a few minutes . clint : uh , dr. wright ? vivian : yes ? clint : why is this happening ? she did n't have this problem with bree . vivian : it would appear that the placenta accreta was brought on by some scarring in jessica 's abdomen . according to her medical chart , it 's probably from the gunshot wound . charlie : oh , my god . [ scene_break ] echo : yeah , you and viki and your little santa suit might have kept me away from chuckles on christmas eve , but we were right back together again on new year 's . like i said , we 're closer than ever now . we 're not just parents . we 're grandparents . and now he 's gon na help me with my little problem . dorian : your lack of style , morals , integrity ? echo : ha ha ! no . my drinking problem . which reminds me , i should get going because i am meeting him at his aa meeting at the church . and you ca n't do anything about it . it 's exclusive . for drunks only . dorian : oh , this is a new low even for you -- exploiting a man 's drinking problem . echo : this coming from the very same woman who forced a bottle of booze down charlie 's throat . huh ! write the check , dorian , and leave charlie to me . [ scene_break ] viki : why do n't we give jessie and brody a little privacy so they can talk this over , hmm ? clint : what 's there to talk about ? viki : clint , it is their decision . they will do what is best . sweetheart ? come on . clint : banks , this is your fault ! you 're the one who shot her , and if anything happens to my daughter or my grandchild -- viki : okay , you stop it ! stop it . [ scene_break ] marty : yeah , well , you ca n't drive , not in your condition . i 'm sure as hell not putting a shotgun in your hands . natalie : okay . that 's fine . just drive me to the hospital , okay ? marty : ha ha ! `` drive you to the hospital . `` that sounds strangely familiar to me . looks like the tables have turned , huh , natalie ? what if i walk out of here and leave you just like you were planning to leave me ? [ scene_break ] dorian : i want you to put a stop on check number 1075 immediately . it 's made out to echo disavoy . e - c - h - o . yes , that 's perfect . thank you . thank you so very much . ah ! i need a drink . dorian : [ sighs ] or perhaps do ... do i need a meeting ? perhaps as mayor i owe my constituents personally looking into alcoholics anonymous . an ounce of prevention . [ scene_break ] viki : the shooting was an accident . clint : an accident . he went there with a gun . viki : yes , to get rid of mitch , not jessica , and as far as that goes , it was dorian 's fault . she bought the gun . she made him do it . clint : yeah , we all wanted mitch dead for killing jared , but to botch it the way he did and then shoot jessica -- viki : that was dorian , too . she grabbed his arm . clint : and what the hell was he doing with dorian ? viki : oh , you 're a fine one to talk . clint : how can you defend her when our daughter is in there losing her baby ? viki : she 's not losing her baby ! charlie : will you stop it , both of you ! okay , clint is right , i never should have gone after mitch . it is my fault , and i will be sorry about this for the rest of my life . clint : and you should be . viki : stop it . charlie : okay , i should n't be here . viki : what ? no . charlie , do n't ! oh ! well , was n't that productive ? clint : why the hell are you mad at me ? you should be mad at charlie . viki : he deserves your respect and your compassion . clint : it 'll be a cold day in hell . viki : our daughter is in there agonizing over something that has no good solution , and all you can do is take your frustration out on my husband ? you owe him an apology ! [ scene_break ] brody : jessica , jessica , i know it 's rough , but you have to try to stay calm for the baby 's sake . jessica : i ca n't put this baby at risk . brody : but we do n't know if it 's a risk . i mean , they do all kinds of things with preemies . jessica : brody ... i wo n't be able to forgive myself , okay ? i ca n't lose another child . after everything that i 've been through , after everything that we 've been through , not knowing whether this baby is yours , i -- i ca n't risk its life . i just ca n't . [ scene_break ] marty : well , what a shame . you 're not gon na be able to tell john that the baby is brody 's and not his . natalie : you would n't . marty : oh , yes , i would . natalie : fine . i 'll walk . marty : you 're not going anywhere . your water broke . you 're susceptible to infection . you 'd be putting the baby at risk . natalie : okay , then just give me my phone and i can call for an ambulance and -- marty : oh , this -- wait . oh , let me see . oh , this phone right here ? [ crash ] natalie : what are you doing ? marty : evening the score ! now take off your coat ... and your boots . natalie : marty . marty , please , you can not leave me here . marty : watch me . [ scene_break ] bo : nah , forget i said anything , john . just give my best to natalie when she gets here . hey , i did n't mean to bend your ear . john : hey , wait a second . wait a second , bo . let 's think about this . if there 's something bothering you , there 's a reason . bo : well , yeah , there 's a reason . it looks like i cheated on my wife . john : exactly . now , look , this might not mean anything ... does n't the timing of this seem a tad convenient ? her son being arraigned for murder ? bo : yeah , it occurred to me . john : when did this happen ? bo : the night that eddie ford was shot . [ scene_break ] inez : what are you doing ? téa : sit down , nate , please . judge : you have something to say , mr. salinger ? nate : yes , your honor . i did it . i 'm guilty . dani : what are you doing ? inez : nathaniel -- téa : your honor , i need a moment to confer with my client . nate : no , that 's okay , your honor . i know what i 'm doing . judge : are you sure , young man ? everyone else sit down . you 're prepared to enter a guilty plea ? nate : yes , your honor . i killed eddie ford . judge : ms. buchanan , do the people want to weigh in ? nora : uh , no . judge : in which case the charges stand . todd : are you gon na say something ? dani : mom , please stop this . téa : your honor , permission to approach the bench . judge : denied . téa : i believe i have relevant information , okay ? judge : we 'll discuss it at sentencing . bailiff : all rise . court is adjourned . dani : what was that ? huh ? it was over . you were gon na go home . nate , why would you plead guilty to something you did n't do ? [ scene_break ] john : inez would be at the top of any suspect list : she had motive , she wanted to protect her kids . how long do you think you were out ? bo : all night . john : say she drugged you . that give her enough time to get over to the motel , shoot eddie , and make it back ? bo : yeah , but what about our witness ? okay , he id 'd nate , saw him leave eddie 's room . john : i 'm not saying he was n't there . the question is did he pull the trigger . we recovered the gun at the apartment they share . bo : so now inez has gone from being a liar to a murderer . i do n't even want to think about this , john , but thank you . i appreciate it . john : yeah . [ scene_break ] echo : oh , charlie , i 'm so glad you 're still here . i thought maybe you might have left . charlie : why , what 's wrong ? echo : i just had the worst run - in with dorian . she got me so upset , look what i did . i ran to the nearest liquor store i could find . i almost drank the whole thing on the way over in the car , but i did n't , and i wo n't . at least i do n't think i will . maybe just a swig , you know . nobody said i had to do this cold turkey . charlie : no . whoa , whoa , no . we 're gon na get rid of this , and then you are gon na go into that meeting and tell them what happened . echo : thank you , charlie . i do n't think i would have been strong enough to do that on my own . [ charlie sighs ] echo : what 's wrong ? charlie : well , it -- it 's jessica . she 's having the baby . it 's too early . echo : well , she 's at the hospital , right ? i 'm sure the baby 's gon na be fine . charlie : no . there 's a problem because ... because of me , okay ? because about a year ago i let dorian talk me into trying to shoot someone , someone who deserved it , but still i missed ... and i shot jessica . echo : oh . charlie : and now she 's got some kind of a scar tissue and she might lose the baby ... or she could bleed to death . echo : no , no , charlie . there must be something that they can do . charlie : yeah . they 're talking to the doctors . and then of course clint , he just tore into me and said it was my fault , and viki , she tried to defend me , but you could see it in her eyes that she blames me , too , because she has to . if i had n't picked up that stupid gun , then her child , her grandchild , they 'd all be all right . echo : charlie , listen to me . you can not pay any attention to anything that clint says because he 's a liar and he 's a user . charlie : yeah , i know , but you know , i just started to feel like , i mean , i know that nothing can bring back jared , but now , with rex in my life , shane , i kind of started to feel like i had a second chance , but i swear , if something happens to jessica or the baby ... echo : no , no , no . we 're gon na get through this . promise you .

[ nick sighs ] have you seen your father since ? nick : you know what , why bother ? i have my own ways of handling things with my father . victoria : thank you very much . and have a safe trip back to new york . oh , hi , mom . nikki : hi . victoria : you having dinner ? nikki : no , i just had a massage up at the spa . i did n't expect to see you here . victoria : oh , i just had a business meeting . i negotiated a discounted rate with one of our key suppliers . which is a relief , considering the financial strain that my company is under right now . nikki : well , i hope that does n't mean you 're going back to the office for another late night . victoria : no , no . i 'm headed home to check on the kids . and then i have a date . nikki : oh ! really ? with whom ? victoria : well , you do n't know him . i do n't really know him , either . i mean , not really . but the one time that we went out , apparently we hit it off . nikki : you 're not sure ? jack : ben ! benjamin : jack . are you stalking me ? jack : i do n't know . should i be ? benjamin : oh , i thought you might be trying to find out if i 've been seeing any more of victoria newman . jack : well , i certainly hope so , or those lovely flowers i sent her with your name attached would be a waste . benjamin : that was you ? jack : well , yeah . i thought i made it abundantly clear i would love to see you and victoria get closer . if it benefits me . benjamin : well , what if i told you that i honestly like victoria , and i 'm not looking to exploit her to sink my teeth into her company ? jack : then i would tell you every man has his price .

ashley : it 's been a while . but i am looking forward to going with you there tomorrow . ravi : me too . ashley : good . ravi : and since the lipstick project is the only thing standing in our way , i will pull an all - nighter if necessary . ashley : that 's not necessary . we are way ahead of our benchmarks . ravi : oh , yeah ?

tessa : sorry . i just do n't really feel up to the underground . noah : yeah , well , you know , tonight was your first recording session . it 's a big deal . you should celebrate . tessa : noah , i practically tanked the session . mariah : yeah , but you 're forgetting how happy devon was with the last take . noah : yes . you nailed it . tessa : ugh ! where 's my charger ? i 'd swear i put it in here . mariah : you can borrow mine if you want . tessa : oh , thank you . mariah : are you expecting a call or something ? tessa : oh , i guess i just , uh ... hate to be without it . scott : are you okay ? sharon : crystal 's the one who 's in trouble . that 's why she called me . i gave my statements to the detectives , but -- scott : okay , okay . okay . just -- just tell me what happened after you got here , okay ? sharon : crystal was going to leave with me so that i could take her someplace safe , but then this scary guy shows up and drags her out of here . he must have been waiting for her the whole time . scott : you should n't have come here alone . what if that guy had gotten violent ? sharon : i did n't even know if i would find her . by the time i got to this room to confirm that crystal was here -- christine : i 've heard what you 've done , sharon . i just wish i knew what you were thinking . additional sponsorship scott : sharon reacted in the moment . she was just trying to help . christine : check in with the detectives . help them do the door - to - door . thank you . gosh ! sharon : where is paul ? why is the district attorney -- christine : paul is away on assignment . i heard what went down . sharon , what were you thinking , getting mixed up in something like this ? sharon : someone needed my help , christine . there was n't time to consult paul or find any other options . christine : how long does it take to dial someone 's phone number ? sharon : a young girl called me , frightened and helpless . she said no police . i did my best to help her . christine : and now she 's gone , right ? you could 've been hurt . you could 've been kidnapped . sharon : it did n't work out . and as frustrated and infuriated i am by that , i would n't hesitate to do it again . christine : sharon , this is n't for you to handle . sharon : i have had intermittent contact with this girl . i 've built a relationship with her . paul has even encouraged it . christine : yes , when you were taking her phone calls at the crisis center , not going out -- [ sighs ] has crystal given you any information we can use ? sharon : paul told me you 're concerned about a sex - trafficking ring that 's expanding . christine : right , that could be coming to genoa city . did she say something about that ? sharon : what more do you need , christine ? find crystal and you could blow the whole thing wide open . noah : i need to get to the underground . are you sure i ca n't convince you for just a , i do n't know , mini - celebration ? tessa : maybe after my next session . hopefully it 'll go better than this one . noah : listen , when devon sends you a mix of that song , you 're gon na feel differently . you 're just too close to it right now to realize how good you did . tessa : [ scoffs ] maybe . noah : all right . well , uh ... what are you two gon na do tonight ?

victoria : if i know one thing about my evening with this guy , it 's that i was n't quite myself . nikki : really ? what do you mean ? victoria : i do n't know . it 's hard to describe . the truth of the matter is i have n't felt like myself in a while . nikki : mm , like how long of a while ? victoria : too long . maybe it 's work . maybe it 's the stress just spilling into the rest of my life . but this first date was ... it was ... [ sighs ] nikki : i do n't need to hear details . victoria : it was just nice . having a man be attracted to me . it 's been a while , you know ? and i guess i had a little too much to drink , and i opened up to him about ... things . life ... billy . nikki : really ? victoria : yes . i know . i know . [ giggles ] but it did n't scare him away . and he even sent me some beautiful flowers the next day . nikki : you could never scare anybody away . and the flowers -- nice touch . victoria : the conversation that i had with him is still a bit fuzzy . but the fact that i was able to open up to him ... and that i felt safe with him makes me think that maybe ... i do n't know . maybe there 's something there . maybe we should give it a try . you know , in a casual way . nikki : yeah . victoria : might bring some balance to my life . that sort of thing . nikki : so , what is this guy 's name ? victoria : benjamin hochman . he 's from chicago . nikki : benjamin hochman ... why does that seem familiar to me ? victoria : i 'm sure dad has mentioned his name before . nikki : is he in investments ? victoria : among other things . he 's very successful . and he 's very attractive , which is not a bad thing . nikki : well , good . that 's nice . what -- what are your plans for tonight ? victoria : tonight ? i do n't know . we 're just gon na , you know , go out to dinner and have some drinks and forget about work for a while , that sort of thing . nikki : good . victoria : yeah . nikki : you need to relax . victoria : i do . you know what , i think i might even buy a new dress . but if i 'm gon na do that , i better get a move on , 'cause it 's getting late , is n't it ? yes , it is . okay , mom . i got to go . nikki : all right . be careful . victoria : thank you . i love you . nikki : i love you . jack : ben , ben , ben , do n't talk like there 's nothing in this for you . benjamin : it seems to me jabot benefits if brash & sassy suffers . and they are your direct competitor . jack : and you 've had lots of practice buying distressed companies , breaking them up , selling them in pieces , making lots of money . have at it . benjamin : there is no confirmation that victoria 's company is in distress . however , acquisitions is a profitable game if played well . jack : and no one 's better at that game than you . benjamin : oh , flattery 's gon na get you nowhere on this one , jack . i mean , there are a ton of other companies out there to make a buck off of . but there 's only one victoria newman . jack : wow . that almost sounds noble . or is it smitten ? ben , you and i both know the day will come when a lovely , beguiling creature will come along and distract you . and then you will want to go after brash & sassy . benjamin : perhaps . jack : i 'm just trying to accelerate your time table so that it lines up with mine . benjamin : [ sighs ] hypothetically ... what 's in it for me ? jack : i 'm glad you asked that . i would like to hire you as an outside consultant . someone who can feed me business information about brash & sassy . benjamin : like what ? jack : like upcoming product launches , costs , vulnerabilities . benjamin : and you think i 'm gon na be able to get that in - depth information from victoria during , what , pillow talk ? jack : no . pillow -- talk is cheap . and unverifiable . no , i want inside intelligence that has documentation . benjamin : [ laughs ] how am i gon na do that ? jack : that 's up to you . benjamin : all right , jack . i 'm intrigued . but it 's gon na take a lot more than a paycheck for me to supply you with that kind of ... consultation . jack : well , i thought somehow the , uh , ancillary benefits were evident . maybe , uh , you need further clarification . you would get a powerful friend and ally moving forward , one who never forgets a favor . i thought you 'd see things my way . dean : i assume you have more properties you want to bid on for the club expansion ? nick : actually , dean , i wanted to meet with you because i 'm letting you go . dean : [ scoffs ] what ? why would you ... ? nick : there 's a number of reasons . dean : look what i 've done for your portfolio , nick . the strong returns of the last year . why would you want to change ? nick : it 's important to me that i take more personal control over the direction of my finances . dean : look , i know you 're disappointed with the losing bids for those other properties -- nick : it really has nothing to do with that , dean . all right ? you 've done an amazing job over the years with the newman accounts , and you 're gon na be so busy dealing with the rest of my family , you wo n't even know i 'm gone . dean : [ sighs ] nick -- nick : look , with this new venture i 'm taking on , i think another firm will give the independence i 'm looking for . really , dean , it 's nothing personal . but my mind 's made up . victor : so , explain this to me . what happens after the couple has coupled ? abby : well , they continue to receive date suggestions . they 'll get links to different movies , concerts , restaurants . victor : how do you monetize this ? zack : well , the free - level entry is ad - supported to get people in the door . abby : and then we offer lots of incentives for them to upgrade to subscription level . zack : from there , couples can book dates , overnights , even entire vacations . abby : yeah , giving us referral fees from different flights , hotels , excursions . victor : let me ask you . an obvious question . is it so difficult for people these days to meet each other and talk to each other and create a relationship ? abby : uh ... victor : how 's the target demo ever going to forge a lasting relationship if all they do is hunch over some cellphone and type messages ? abby : [ laughs ] well , dad , we live in an age where everything happens at warp speed . your generation had an actual 9 : 00-to-5 : 00 workday , while we 're expected to answer e - mails and work through the night 24/7 . so you had time to pick up the phone and actually plan a date . victor : mm . well , remember those explanations when the press asks you questions , okay ? abby : you were testing me ? victor : well , now , let me ask you this -- there are a lot of people that you wo n't reach with your app . how are you gon na convince them ? abby : well , i -- i 'll just tell them what i just told you . consider it done . victor : i think you backed a winner . and i 'm very proud of you for not taking no for an answer . abby : thank you . victor : and , zack , i think you have a future , as well . zack : thank you , sir . victor : yeah . abby : um -- oh . actually , zack and i need to get going . we are supposed to meet mom . i love you , dad . victor : bye , sweetheart . abby : mwah ! victor : thank you . zack , a moment , please . i understand that you are ... getting closer with abby . zack : your daughter , she 's amazing . victor : just remember that i am very protective of her . all right ? you have a good day . chelsea : you see anything you like ? victoria : uh , yes . a few things . thank you for inviting me over here to do this privately . chelsea : oh , yeah . of course . victoria : i appreciate it . chelsea : but you do know fenmore 's has a wider selection of my designs , right ? victoria : oh , yeah . i know . i just prefer to stay away from that store now that they 're a part of jabot . chelsea : oh . the rivalry 's gotten that intense , huh ? victoria : it 's all jack 's doing . what do you think about this one ? chelsea : uh , well , it depends . what 's the occasion ? victoria : i have a date . chelsea : good for you . victoria : yeah . well , you know , it 's a little nerve - racking , actually . chelsea : first one in a long time ? victoria : [ sighs ] yeah . chelsea : um , okay . well , is it the kind of date where you 're like , `` hands off , `` or is it the kind of date where you 're like , `` touch me now `` ? victoria : you know , i 'm just sort of trying to nudge myself out of my own comfort zone . chelsea : clothing - wise or otherwise ? victoria : both . i just -- i kind of took a hit . um , you know , um ... uh ... confidence - wise ... when i finally realized that billy and i are n't getting back together , and ... chelsea : because he 's with phyllis . victoria : yes , exactly . and now i 'm gon na date this businessman who , um ... i mean , i did n't think that he was my type , but maybe he is my type . i do n't know . chelsea : okay . okay . well , i think i might have just the dress for you , then . how about this number ? victoria : i 'm -- i should try that on . chelsea : yes . you can use my bedroom if you want . victoria : oh , thank you . i will . chelsea : of course . that 'll look great on you . victoria : it 's sexy . chelsea : [ laughs ] it is . as are you . victoria : heh . thanks . [ doorbell rings ] chelsea : oh , excuse me one second . oh , hi . nick : hi . chelsea : this is a ... coincidence . nick : oh , yeah ? why ? some other guy who adores you drop by tonight ? chelsea : no , because your sister victoria is here . nick : oh , yeah ? chelsea : yeah . she 's upstairs trying on a dress . nick : okay . i wonder how she 's gon na take the news when she finds out i moved all my money from the family bank . chelsea : why did you that ? nick : freedom , baby . [ clicks tongue ] freedom . sharon : it was a dark car , a four - door sedan . christine : and that 's all you remember about the pimp 's car ? all right , officer . that 'll be it . thank you . scott : thank you . sharon : how soon do you expect there 'll be any action in this case ? christine : we have to be really cautious and not rush things . sharon : should n't a sex - trafficking ring be a priority ? scott : yeah , is n't there a task force assigned to this ? christine : yeah , one i formed with the other d.a . 's and the feds . you know , surveilling big players that move into the state . now , sharon , i 've gone over paul 's reports about your interactions with this young lady , with your communication , even finding her at this cash - only motel . it does n't necessarily add up to a sex ring . scott : yeah , but it could be . christine : well , we have no evidence to substantiate that . what happened here tonight could be local prostitution , which is handled by the gcpd . sharon : but if crystal wants out and they wo n't let her -- christine : i need concrete details and leads . now , i will direct the police to follow up on this so we can find out what this could be . but in the meantime , let 's not get ahead of ourselves . let 's focus on what we have first . abby : you would not believe dad 's reaction to the app . he actually said he was proud of me . ashley : well , honey , he 's told you that before . more than once . abby : i know , but this was different . i could see it on his face . ashley : oh . well , you 've worked so hard chasing his approval . you have it . so now just sit back and enjoy the rewards , please . abby : well , i am very grateful to you for actually encouraging me to go through with my incubator . ashley : whatever i can do to help . abby : i know tonight is , um , supposed to be the four of us , but i was thinking maybe you and me , tomorrow night , just the two of us ? i want to take you to dinner as a thank - you . ashley : uh , actually , i 'm going to the abbott cabin . with , um ... ravi . abby : ahhh . [ ashley laughs ] okay . okay . finally showing more than just a professional interest ? ashley : you know , uh , well , i have n't been to the cabin in a long time , and i thought i could use some rest and relaxation . abby : uh - huh . and ravi . ashley : well , he 's always , you know , chained to that computer screen , so ... abby : huh . zack : ready to head out ? ashley : yeah . definitely . abby : yeah . ravi : you know , i ca n't say enough good things about the app . zack : well , coming from a tech genius like you , that 's high praise . thanks . ravi : where 'd you learn to code ? michigan ? carnegie mellon ? zack : yeah , more like the school of hard knocks . ravi : hm . abby : so , um , where should we go ? ashley : uh , what about the underground ? you guys have a cool new app , and i 'm sure you 'll have a lot of potential clients there , right ? abby : hmm . mom , you 're so hip and with it these days . ashley : oh , please . abby : what 's changed ? ashley : shall we ? abby : thank you . chelsea : honestly , it 's perfect . victoria : thank you . [ sighs ] now , back to dean . you know , he 's handled our accounts for years , and he has done a really good job , nick . nick : that was then . this is now . i do n't want all my money in the same bank where my dad is a major shareholder and on the board of directors . chelsea : makes sense to me . victoria : to a point . i heard about the club membership . nick : separate issue . victoria : i ca n't help but feel that this is an escalation . and it 's an unnecessary one . do you really feel like dad is gon na have some sway over the returns on your investments ? nick : look , it 's just a matter of principle , all right ? if i want to be my own man , [ voice fading , distorting ] it 's got to be all the way . and , you know , this does n't have to be an issue between us , vick . it 's just something i decided to do . victoria : okay . [ sighs ] look , i 'm not gon na waste my time trying to change your mind , because that 's not gon na happen . and i have got to get going . i have a date . nick : yeah , uh , i heard about that . the dress -- victoria : is for my date , not my brother . chelsea , i 'll send you the check . and thank you . this dress is perfect for tonight . chelsea : good . have a great night ! victoria : okay , i will . thanks again . chelsea : victoria works so hard . it 's nice to see her take a break from brash & sassy for a second and have some fun . sharon : [ sighs ] i ca n't stop thinking about crystal . scott : you , uh -- you built a connection with her . sharon : i know what it 's like to feel that alone and that helpless . scott : you talking about your own sexual assault ? sharon : [ sighs ] i just keep trying to imagine where crystal is right now , what she 's feeling . is she worried that there 's no end in sight to this ? or ... if there is one , it could be a horrible one . scott : hey . hey . you got through it . sharon : you never completely do get through it . that 's the problem . i mean , how many sleepless nights did you spend when you were kidnapped , wondering if you were ever gon na be rescued ? scott : too many . sharon : okay . i 'm gon na make some coffee . scott : hey . paul and christine are gon na do everything they can . sharon : but i 'm not gon na walk away from this , scott . [ door opens ] i 've got to let that poor girl know that she 's not alone . mariah : hey . what 's wrong ? scott : [ sighs ] sharon : there 's a situation with the girl i told you about from the crisis center . she is in terrible trouble . tessa : what girl ? `` the young and the restless `` will continue . nikki : excellent suggestion , dining on the roof . jack : i think you 'll find i 'm full of wonderful ideas . nikki : [ laughs ] jack : or maybe not . nikki : no , i 'm laughing at myself . after all the trouble we went to to get away , alone , and have private time , here we are in public . not a soul recognizes us for us to scandalize . jack : it 's still early . my mother could still pop up and scold me for spending time with you . nikki : ohh , dear . how are things going with dina ? jack : on the upswing , i think . i just gave her a project at jabot . nikki : she asked ? jack : ashley 's idea . nikki : really ? i thought that ashley was determined to spend as little time near dina as possible . jack : well , ashley was the one who posited the idea that mother was perhaps a little depressed not having mergeron to keep her busy , so this was my remedy . and , no , ashley did n't expect that . nikki : hmm . you think that 's the right approach ? jack : i am a little nervous about it . she comes with so much experience , though . it could be best for everyone . nikki : well , they say that risk brings rewards . jack : you thinking of taking a risk yourself ? nikki : actually , i 'm thinking about victoria . she has a date with a guy who could or could not be her type . jack : a blind date ? nikki : no , they 've been out once before , and apparently it went well . in fact , you may have even heard of this guy -- benjamin hochman ? victoria : oh , thanks . bottoms up ! benjamin : oh , wow . you look dazzling . victoria : thank you . benjamin : you know , this , uh ... this is a little bit different than what i had planned for us tonight . when i got your text , i , uh , expected ... victoria : something more established -- like top of the tower ? benjamin : yeah , that seems more your style . victoria : yeah . i just , you know ... this place is fun , and i felt like having some fun tonight . do n't you ? benjamin : yeah , i 'm with you . [ sighs ] ah . although it looks like you 've already got a head start . victoria : oh , no , no . this is just sparkling water . i have to be sharp for work tomorrow . besides , i do n't need to drink to have a good time . benjamin : mm . are you sure you have n't had anything ? you seem so ... up . victoria : well , maybe i was just looking forward to our date . i do n't do things like this often enough . benjamin : ah , me either . well , like you , i 'm working all the time . [ both chuckle ] although i would love to see you in your element as c.e.o . maybe i could get a private tour of brash & sassy sometime . victoria : do you really want to talk about work ? benjamin : all right . you pick the topic . victoria : [ sighs ] okay . well , i opened up to you , apparently , about my personal life , so ... maybe it 's your turn . benjamin : what ? [ scoffs ] you think i have deep , dark secrets to share ? [ laughs ] i wish . no , the biggest thing in my life going on right now is this nasty custody battle that i 'm having with my ex . victoria : i 'm sorry . that 's brutal . benjamin : you ca n't really want to hear about that . victoria : you know what ? you 're right . i don't . [ benjamin laughs ] to hell with talking . let 's dance .

[ slow music playing ] abby : i do n't know what 's going on with victoria . her moods keep morphing . i ca n't keep up . ashley : what do you mean ? abby : well , one minute , she 's crying on my shoulder , the next , she 's telling me to mind my own business . a few days ago , she was miserable . and now look at her . she 's the life of the party . she 's so volatile and unpredictable . ashley : well , there 's nothing wrong with having a good time , obviously , but i just hope she knows what she 's doing with that guy . ravi : i second that . hochman 's an ass . ashley : mm - hmm . abby : well , victoria does know how to take care of herself . ashley : usually . i just hope tonight 's not the exception .

[ nick sighs ] have you seen your father since ? nick : you know what , why bother ? i have my own ways of handling things with my father . victoria : thank you very much . and have a safe trip back to new york . oh , hi , mom . nikki : hi . victoria : you having dinner ? nikki : no , i just had a massage up at the spa . i did n't expect to see you here . victoria : oh , i just had a business meeting . i negotiated a discounted rate with one of our key suppliers . which is a relief , considering the financial strain that my company is under right now . nikki : well , i hope that does n't mean you 're going back to the office for another late night . victoria : no , no . i 'm headed home to check on the kids . and then i have a date . nikki : oh ! really ? with whom ? victoria : well , you do n't know him . i do n't really know him , either . i mean , not really . but the one time that we went out , apparently we hit it off . nikki : you 're not sure ? jack : ben ! benjamin : jack . are you stalking me ? jack : i do n't know . should i be ? benjamin : oh , i thought you might be trying to find out if i 've been seeing any more of victoria newman . jack : well , i certainly hope so , or those lovely flowers i sent her with your name attached would be a waste . benjamin : that was you ? jack : well , yeah . i thought i made it abundantly clear i would love to see you and victoria get closer . if it benefits me . benjamin : well , what if i told you that i honestly like victoria , and i 'm not looking to exploit her to sink my teeth into her company ? jack : then i would tell you every man has his price . [ keys clacking ] [ laptop chimes ] ashley : oh . is this the projection you 've been working on ? ravi : uh ... yeah . along with something else . ashley : mm . okay , what am i looking at ? ravi : that 's the abbott cabin . well , it 's a satellite image . i thought you 'd enjoy it . ashley : that is so cool ! i 've never seen it from this perspective before . wait . come here a second . this is a little silly , but ... right here , ravi , this is the exact spot where i fell off of a makeshift tire swing when i was little , and i hurt -- i hurt this wrist right here . right there . right there . ravi : when were you there last ? ashley : it 's been a while . but i am looking forward to going with you there tomorrow . ravi : me too . ashley : good . ravi : and since the lipstick project is the only thing standing in our way , i will pull an all - nighter if necessary . ashley : that 's not necessary . we are way ahead of our benchmarks . ravi : oh , yeah ?

tessa : sorry . i just do n't really feel up to the underground . noah : yeah , well , you know , tonight was your first recording session . it 's a big deal . you should celebrate . tessa : noah , i practically tanked the session . mariah : yeah , but you 're forgetting how happy devon was with the last take . noah : yes . you nailed it . tessa : ugh ! where 's my charger ? i 'd swear i put it in here . mariah : you can borrow mine if you want . tessa : oh , thank you . mariah : are you expecting a call or something ? tessa : oh , i guess i just , uh ... hate to be without it . scott : are you okay ? sharon : crystal 's the one who 's in trouble . that 's why she called me . i gave my statements to the detectives , but -- scott : okay , okay . okay . just -- just tell me what happened after you got here , okay ? sharon : crystal was going to leave with me so that i could take her someplace safe , but then this scary guy shows up and drags her out of here . he must have been waiting for her the whole time . scott : you should n't have come here alone . what if that guy had gotten violent ? sharon : i did n't even know if i would find her . by the time i got to this room to confirm that crystal was here -- christine : i 've heard what you 've done , sharon . i just wish i knew what you were thinking . additional sponsorship scott : sharon reacted in the moment . she was just trying to help . christine : check in with the detectives . help them do the door - to - door . thank you . gosh ! sharon : where is paul ? why is the district attorney -- christine : paul is away on assignment . i heard what went down . sharon , what were you thinking , getting mixed up in something like this ? sharon : someone needed my help , christine . there was n't time to consult paul or find any other options . christine : how long does it take to dial someone 's phone number ? sharon : a young girl called me , frightened and helpless . she said no police . i did my best to help her . christine : and now she 's gone , right ? you could 've been hurt . you could 've been kidnapped . sharon : it did n't work out . and as frustrated and infuriated i am by that , i would n't hesitate to do it again . christine : sharon , this is n't for you to handle . sharon : i have had intermittent contact with this girl . i 've built a relationship with her . paul has even encouraged it . christine : yes , when you were taking her phone calls at the crisis center , not going out -- [ sighs ] has crystal given you any information we can use ? sharon : paul told me you 're concerned about a sex - trafficking ring that 's expanding . christine : right , that could be coming to genoa city . did she say something about that ? sharon : what more do you need , christine ? find crystal and you could blow the whole thing wide open . noah : i need to get to the underground . are you sure i ca n't convince you for just a , i do n't know , mini - celebration ? tessa : maybe after my next session . hopefully it 'll go better than this one . noah : listen , when devon sends you a mix of that song , you 're gon na feel differently . you 're just too close to it right now to realize how good you did . tessa : [ scoffs ] maybe . noah : all right . well , uh ... what are you two gon na do tonight ? mariah : um , probably just call it a night , right ? tessa : well , actually , i would n't mind hanging out for a while . i need to unwind , and i do n't really feel like doing it by myself . mariah : yeah . yeah , sure . that sounds great . noah : i 'm proud of you . tessa : hey , it was all you tonight . you 're the reason i got a halfway - decent take of that song . noah : you still seem ... i do n't know . tessa : i - i know . distracted . i just ... i keep replaying in my mind all the things that i could have done ... should have done . i promise it 's not you . okay ? victoria : if i know one thing about my evening with this guy , it 's that i was n't quite myself . nikki : really ? what do you mean ? victoria : i do n't know . it 's hard to describe . the truth of the matter is i have n't felt like myself in a while . nikki : mm , like how long of a while ? victoria : too long . maybe it 's work . maybe it 's the stress just spilling into the rest of my life . but this first date was ... it was ... [ sighs ] nikki : i do n't need to hear details . victoria : it was just nice . having a man be attracted to me . it 's been a while , you know ? and i guess i had a little too much to drink , and i opened up to him about ... things . life ... billy . nikki : really ? victoria : yes . i know . i know . [ giggles ] but it did n't scare him away . and he even sent me some beautiful flowers the next day . nikki : you could never scare anybody away . and the flowers -- nice touch . victoria : the conversation that i had with him is still a bit fuzzy . but the fact that i was able to open up to him ... and that i felt safe with him makes me think that maybe ... i do n't know . maybe there 's something there . maybe we should give it a try . you know , in a casual way . nikki : yeah . victoria : might bring some balance to my life . that sort of thing . nikki : so , what is this guy 's name ? victoria : benjamin hochman . he 's from chicago . nikki : benjamin hochman ... why does that seem familiar to me ? victoria : i 'm sure dad has mentioned his name before . nikki : is he in investments ? victoria : among other things . he 's very successful . and he 's very attractive , which is not a bad thing . nikki : well , good . that 's nice . what -- what are your plans for tonight ? victoria : tonight ? i do n't know . we 're just gon na , you know , go out to dinner and have some drinks and forget about work for a while , that sort of thing . nikki : good . victoria : yeah . nikki : you need to relax . victoria : i do . you know what , i think i might even buy a new dress . but if i 'm gon na do that , i better get a move on , 'cause it 's getting late , is n't it ? yes , it is . okay , mom . i got to go . nikki : all right . be careful . victoria : thank you . i love you . nikki : i love you . jack : ben , ben , ben , do n't talk like there 's nothing in this for you . benjamin : it seems to me jabot benefits if brash & sassy suffers . and they are your direct competitor . jack : and you 've had lots of practice buying distressed companies , breaking them up , selling them in pieces , making lots of money . have at it . benjamin : there is no confirmation that victoria 's company is in distress . however , acquisitions is a profitable game if played well . jack : and no one 's better at that game than you . benjamin : oh , flattery 's gon na get you nowhere on this one , jack . i mean , there are a ton of other companies out there to make a buck off of . but there 's only one victoria newman . jack : wow . that almost sounds noble . or is it smitten ? ben , you and i both know the day will come when a lovely , beguiling creature will come along and distract you . and then you will want to go after brash & sassy . benjamin : perhaps . jack : i 'm just trying to accelerate your time table so that it lines up with mine . benjamin : [ sighs ] hypothetically ... what 's in it for me ? jack : i 'm glad you asked that . i would like to hire you as an outside consultant . someone who can feed me business information about brash & sassy . benjamin : like what ? jack : like upcoming product launches , costs , vulnerabilities . benjamin : and you think i 'm gon na be able to get that in - depth information from victoria during , what , pillow talk ? jack : no . pillow -- talk is cheap . and unverifiable . no , i want inside intelligence that has documentation . benjamin : [ laughs ] how am i gon na do that ? jack : that 's up to you . benjamin : all right , jack . i 'm intrigued . but it 's gon na take a lot more than a paycheck for me to supply you with that kind of ... consultation . jack : well , i thought somehow the , uh , ancillary benefits were evident . maybe , uh , you need further clarification . you would get a powerful friend and ally moving forward , one who never forgets a favor . i thought you 'd see things my way . dean : i assume you have more properties you want to bid on for the club expansion ? nick : actually , dean , i wanted to meet with you because i 'm letting you go . dean : [ scoffs ] what ? why would you ... ? nick : there 's a number of reasons . dean : look what i 've done for your portfolio , nick . the strong returns of the last year . why would you want to change ? nick : it 's important to me that i take more personal control over the direction of my finances . dean : look , i know you 're disappointed with the losing bids for those other properties -- nick : it really has nothing to do with that , dean . all right ? you 've done an amazing job over the years with the newman accounts , and you 're gon na be so busy dealing with the rest of my family , you wo n't even know i 'm gone . dean : [ sighs ] nick -- nick : look , with this new venture i 'm taking on , i think another firm will give the independence i 'm looking for . really , dean , it 's nothing personal . but my mind 's made up . victor : so , explain this to me . what happens after the couple has coupled ? abby : well , they continue to receive date suggestions . they 'll get links to different movies , concerts , restaurants . victor : how do you monetize this ? zack : well , the free - level entry is ad - supported to get people in the door . abby : and then we offer lots of incentives for them to upgrade to subscription level . zack : from there , couples can book dates , overnights , even entire vacations . abby : yeah , giving us referral fees from different flights , hotels , excursions . victor : let me ask you . an obvious question . is it so difficult for people these days to meet each other and talk to each other and create a relationship ? abby : uh ... victor : how 's the target demo ever going to forge a lasting relationship if all they do is hunch over some cellphone and type messages ? abby : [ laughs ] well , dad , we live in an age where everything happens at warp speed . your generation had an actual 9 : 00-to-5 : 00 workday , while we 're expected to answer e - mails and work through the night 24/7 . so you had time to pick up the phone and actually plan a date . victor : mm . well , remember those explanations when the press asks you questions , okay ? abby : you were testing me ? victor : well , now , let me ask you this -- there are a lot of people that you wo n't reach with your app . how are you gon na convince them ? abby : well , i -- i 'll just tell them what i just told you . consider it done . victor : i think you backed a winner . and i 'm very proud of you for not taking no for an answer . abby : thank you . victor : and , zack , i think you have a future , as well . zack : thank you , sir . victor : yeah . abby : um -- oh . actually , zack and i need to get going . we are supposed to meet mom . i love you , dad . victor : bye , sweetheart . abby : mwah ! victor : thank you . zack , a moment , please . i understand that you are ... getting closer with abby . zack : your daughter , she 's amazing . victor : just remember that i am very protective of her . all right ? you have a good day . chelsea : you see anything you like ? victoria : uh , yes . a few things . thank you for inviting me over here to do this privately . chelsea : oh , yeah . of course . victoria : i appreciate it . chelsea : but you do know fenmore 's has a wider selection of my designs , right ? victoria : oh , yeah . i know . i just prefer to stay away from that store now that they 're a part of jabot . chelsea : oh . the rivalry 's gotten that intense , huh ? victoria : it 's all jack 's doing . what do you think about this one ? chelsea : uh , well , it depends . what 's the occasion ? victoria : i have a date . chelsea : good for you . victoria : yeah . well , you know , it 's a little nerve - racking , actually . chelsea : first one in a long time ? victoria : [ sighs ] yeah . chelsea : um , okay . well , is it the kind of date where you 're like , `` hands off , `` or is it the kind of date where you 're like , `` touch me now `` ? victoria : you know , i 'm just sort of trying to nudge myself out of my own comfort zone . chelsea : clothing - wise or otherwise ? victoria : both . i just -- i kind of took a hit . um , you know , um ... uh ... confidence - wise ... when i finally realized that billy and i are n't getting back together , and ... chelsea : because he 's with phyllis . victoria : yes , exactly . and now i 'm gon na date this businessman who , um ... i mean , i did n't think that he was my type , but maybe he is my type . i do n't know . chelsea : okay . okay . well , i think i might have just the dress for you , then . how about this number ? victoria : i 'm -- i should try that on . chelsea : yes . you can use my bedroom if you want . victoria : oh , thank you . i will . chelsea : of course . that 'll look great on you . victoria : it 's sexy . chelsea : [ laughs ] it is . as are you . victoria : heh . thanks . [ doorbell rings ] chelsea : oh , excuse me one second . oh , hi . nick : hi . chelsea : this is a ... coincidence . nick : oh , yeah ? why ? some other guy who adores you drop by tonight ? chelsea : no , because your sister victoria is here . nick : oh , yeah ? chelsea : yeah . she 's upstairs trying on a dress . nick : okay . i wonder how she 's gon na take the news when she finds out i moved all my money from the family bank . chelsea : why did you that ? nick : freedom , baby . [ clicks tongue ] freedom . sharon : it was a dark car , a four - door sedan . christine : and that 's all you remember about the pimp 's car ? all right , officer . that 'll be it . thank you . scott : thank you . sharon : how soon do you expect there 'll be any action in this case ? christine : we have to be really cautious and not rush things . sharon : should n't a sex - trafficking ring be a priority ? scott : yeah , is n't there a task force assigned to this ? christine : yeah , one i formed with the other d.a . 's and the feds . you know , surveilling big players that move into the state . now , sharon , i 've gone over paul 's reports about your interactions with this young lady , with your communication , even finding her at this cash - only motel . it does n't necessarily add up to a sex ring . scott : yeah , but it could be . christine : well , we have no evidence to substantiate that . what happened here tonight could be local prostitution , which is handled by the gcpd . sharon : but if crystal wants out and they wo n't let her -- christine : i need concrete details and leads . now , i will direct the police to follow up on this so we can find out what this could be . but in the meantime , let 's not get ahead of ourselves . let 's focus on what we have first . abby : you would not believe dad 's reaction to the app . he actually said he was proud of me . ashley : well , honey , he 's told you that before . more than once . abby : i know , but this was different . i could see it on his face . ashley : oh . well , you 've worked so hard chasing his approval . you have it . so now just sit back and enjoy the rewards , please . abby : well , i am very grateful to you for actually encouraging me to go through with my incubator . ashley : whatever i can do to help . abby : i know tonight is , um , supposed to be the four of us , but i was thinking maybe you and me , tomorrow night , just the two of us ? i want to take you to dinner as a thank - you . ashley : uh , actually , i 'm going to the abbott cabin . with , um ... ravi . abby : ahhh .

[ babe sighs ] david : babe , i have no doubt whatsoever that you believe that this is true . but sometimes , when the only place to go is pain , our mind -- well , it works to protect us . it creates a logic that -- that will help soften the pain . that 's what happened to you in llanview , babe . now , i know that you want to believe that your baby 's alive . of course you do . babe : i want my father to believe me and my mama . i do n't need my head to be shrunk . david : i lived it , too , babe . after leora died , i thought i saw her , too , everywhere . but the reality was that , well , she was just a phantom of something i could never have again . babe : no . my baby is not a phantom , david . he is alive . he is flesh and blood ! david : but he 's not yours . babe , please let this go . the longer you try to hold on to this , the more difficult it is going to be for you to face reality . do you understand that ? babe : yeah . yeah , i understand just fine . i understand that you two are n't going to help me , so i 'll find somebody who will . david : wait , wait , wait . krystal : babe , do n't go . do n't . david : you ca n't just rush off and claim some baby as your own . babe : it 's not some baby , david ! this is my little boy , and i remember him , even the little dimple in his cheek . david : sweetheart , you only saw your baby for a few brief moments . babe : have you forgotten your baby 's face ? would you remember leora if you saw her again , david , even after all of this time , her tiny little lips and her seashell ears ? david : of course i would . but that does n't make it possible for either of us . krystal : honey , there is nothing we want more than for your baby to be alive , but -- babe : but , what , you think i 'm loony ? david : all right . look , if you 're so certain about this , why did n't you confront buchanan ? babe : and tell him what ? that his little boy is mine ? yeah , that would go over real well . you two love me and you do n't even believe me . he would have me shut down so fast . krystal : she has a point . babe : the one thing i learned in the chandler house is that the truth does n't always work . you have to have a plan and it has to be foolproof . krystal : yeah , but remember , remember that not everybody is as twisted as the chandlers . babe : but i saw kevin with my little boy , ok ? and if he loves my baby anywhere as much as j.r. loves bess , the second that i get anywhere near him , he 's going to shut me down . krystal : so what are you going to do ? david : we 're not really having this conversation , are we ? babe : i do n't know what i 'm going to do , mama . last time , when i pulled that whole pregnancy bit on j.r. , you got mad at me because i did n't have a plan . well , this time , i 'm going to have one , and it 's going to be a doozy . krystal : that 's one word for it if it means you having to stay here with j.r . babe : i just need time to figure everything out , just to find a way to get my little boy back . now are you in or are you out ?

[ scene_break ] david : we 've got to talk babe down before she goes too far . krystal : hang on a second . j.r. does n't need to hear this . david : he 'd probably be on the phone to oak haven telling them to get her room ready . krystal : what if she 's right ? david : she 's not . babe is about to return miranda to bianca . she 's going to lose the baby that she 's been caring for as her own , probably lose her best friend and other people that she cares about . i mean , this story about her son is her way to cope with her pain , her fear . krystal , her baby died that night . krystal : what if he did n't ? david : oh , come on . not you , too ! krystal , look , i need you with me on this , all right , because when babe comes crashing back to reality , she 's going to need the two of us to help her through it . krystal : but it 's possible , david . you got to admit it , a lot of what she says makes sense ! david : like what ? what , that a man crashed a chopper on purpose ? what , stole a baby ? well , tell me , how did he orchestrate that storm , huh ? or the flash flood that trapped them there ? krystal , come on . she needs us planted on terra firma , not joining her in la - la land . krystal : you 're not fooling me , david . all this big talk . you 're afraid . david : of what ? krystal : of getting your hopes up . david : that 's ridiculous . krystal : is it ? think about it , david . give yourself the luxury for just a minute . what if it 's real ? what if our grandchild is alive ? what kind of miracle would that be ? [ scene_break ] babe : i 've got the best fairy tale ever for you , peanut . hmm . ok . once upon a time , there was a prince and a princess , and they were soul mates . and their mommies -- their mommies were best friends . but the night that they were born , an evil troll came and he stole the little boy away . but he told the mommies that the little boy was dead . but what nobody knew was that he had taken the little boy and he 'd hidden him in the woods all for himself . but do n't you worry , my pretty princess , this story has a very happy ending . [ scene_break ] maria : i just know what kind of men edmund and zach are . aidan : so then you do n't know anything incriminating about zach ? maria : all i know is that he is impulsive and stubborn and always right , which is just like edmund , and that means trouble because edmund -- i love edmund , but that does n't mean i want something bad to happen to zach . aidan : maybe they 'll call it a draw . maria : no , you heard edmund . he 's not going to stop ! he 's totally obsessed with this ! he 's not going to stop until there 's nothing left but scraps of zach ! aidan : from what i 've seen of zach , i think he can take care of himself . maria : aidan , please , all i 'm asking you is if there has to be an investigation , can you do it ? you 've seen what this is doing to edmund . please , i just want it to stop before -- before someone gets hurt . [ scene_break ] zach : what i 've read about cambias , they 're more of a curse than a family . best left buried . ethan : in a landfill ? look , i did n't come here for your opinion . i came here for your help . zach : i ca n't help you with this . ethan : then i guess i wasted my time . michael : hmm . you 'd better not let them do to him what they did to me . look at this , look at this . look at what this town did to me . they turned me into a scapegoat . ethan is next , i 'm telling you . zach : he 'll get by . michael : oh , yeah ? he even says his name is cambias , they 'll go after his blood . yep . good old dad . certainly did a number on me . and you -- you helped him . yep . you flipped a switch the day you deserted me , left me to drown in the muck of being the cambias heir . but you know what ? i loved you so much , i was willing to do it . i wanted to do it for you . i do n't know , i guess i was wanting to sacrifice myself so you could be free . of course , it did n't exactly turn out that way , did it ? father killed my spirit , they killed me , left me in the dump . but i just hope that does n't happen to you . protect yourself , brother . and please , do n't turn your back on me .

[ scene_break ] schuyler : well , given all this , i 'm sure you 'd want to transfer out of my class . starr : wait , what ? no . schuyler : no , really ? starr : this is the only ap class , and even though you did embarrass me in front of everyone , i -- you seem like a pretty okay teacher . schuyler : oh , well , i -- i hope i turn out more than pretty okay . starr : no , i was just -- i was just kidding , but i 'm sure you will . schuyler : thank you . so from now on , you and me ? student / teacher . starr : you schuyler : okay ? starr : got it . schuyler : hey , and this little connection that we have , we 're going to check it at the door . deal ? starr : yes , deal . but before we do that , i have something to say about your mother . [ scene_break ] john : maybe i was a little over the top about manning . blair : thank you . but i was dead on about you and marty . john : no , you 're not . marty 's in trouble . she 's not in control . she 's shutting everyone out , even cole . know where she is right now ? she 's with some -- some guy , some stranger in a hotel room right down the hallway . she does n't want my help , and that concerns me . but it 's not because i want to be with her , but because what she 's doing is dangerous and i 'm scared for her . and i 'm worried about cole . and the only thing i wanted through all this is you . blair : i want you , too , john . look , what we have , it just -- it really -- it really works , and i know i 'm -- all of this is me . it 's me , worrying because -- because i ca n't have what i always want , and i want [ scene_break ] rex : this might make me sound like a total wimp . and i 'm okay with that . please do n't leave me alone here with shane . gigi : i ca n't help that i have to go to work . rex : okay , i 'm the last person he wants to see right now . gigi : no , that would be me , and i ca n't look him in the eyes right now , either . besides , i think he 'll be more comfortable talking to a guy about this stuff . rex : okay , but he just saw this stuff happen between me and his mom . gigi : do n't worry . i 've covered the basics . and , uh , you 're his dad , and this is a man thing . honey , i 'm leaving for work now . it will be fine , just fine .

[ scene_break ] viki : your love for starr , that 's what turned your life around . you stopped thinking about yourself for once and you started thinking about what was right for her . so if you 'll go back to that , i think you 'll know what to do next . oh . todd , if you were really gone , i would miss you . you know that . [ phone ringing ] starr : hey , this is starr . i must be busy right now , so leave a message . [ phone beeps ] [ next_on ] shane : it 's called sex . i get it . matthew : i 've never seen that before in my life . marty : i 'm not the mother you grew up with , the mother you loved , the mother who loved you . wes : hey , as long as you 're all right . | right after starr and dr. joplin 's son know each other , vow to keep their secrets from the others , and remain as teacher and student , tea is on the warpath to make certain nobody can implicate todd for intending to kidnap starr 's baby . she calls him . and she warns todd that they better find janet the nurse before anybody else does . right then , janet comes out of nowhere to reveal that she 's an old friend and `` business associate `` of renee 's . she informs renee that she needs to hide and needs renee 's help . renee agrees to hide janet . a joint falls out of matthew 's pocket . nora informs bo . they know they must talk to their son . yet it is actually cole who might be ready to smoke marijuana . blair and john both realize that he may not be over marty nor she over todd . viki goes to visit todd in an attempt to encourage him to redeem himself and know that people still love him . | <s>[INST] gigi : work . i ca n't be late . why do i do this to myself ? rex : well , you did n't do it yourself . gigi : very funny . i 'm serious , though . the new owner is coming in today . where the hell is my shirt ?

[ scene_break ] bo : buchanan . nora : bo , it 's nora . we got a big problem . talia : so , janet ketring did book a flight . where to ? antonio : vegas . but she never got on the flight . talia : okay . which means she booked another flight or made other travel plans . antonio : or she never left llanview . [ scene_break ] renee : lee halpern . i mean -- i 'm sorry . you said janet , right ? i thought you were dead . janet : sometimes i wish i was . renee : where have you been all these years ? janet : i do n't have time to go into that right now . renee : all right . you said you needed my help . janet : yes . i 'm sorry , renee , i did n't know where else to go . renee : what kind of help do you need ? janet : i need you to hide me . [ scene_break ] téa : we need to find this janet ketring . if she makes a statement about your crazy plan , you 're toast . todd : she 's off somewhere , rolling around in all the money i gave her . téa : money is n't the only thing that motivates people , todd . todd : pretty close . actually , you know , she had her own legal problems . i do n't think she 'd give up her cushy life to risk going to jail . téa : even if nora offered her a deal ? todd : no . you know , mcbain made her sweat on a couple different occasions . she did n't give me up then . i think she 's going to keep her mouth shut . téa : even if she does , we still have a dead person with a story to tell . dr. joplin . [ scene_break ] starr : are you serious ? you 're dr. joplin 's son ? schuyler : i 'm so sorry . i had no idea you were in my class . if they had just given me an attendance sheet , i would 've recognized your name . not that i -- starr : no , i 'm the one -- i 'm the one who caused your mother 's death . [ scene_break ] asher : hey . your friends gone ? cole : yeah . asher : i had a feeling they would n't be down with this . cole : look , langston and markko are cool , right ? they just do n't need to know all my business , all right ? asher : tell me about it , man . look , i talked to my friend . he hooked me up . cole : those look serious . asher : you said you wanted to check out for awhile , these will do it for you . [ scene_break ] john : what the hell were you doing with manning ? blair : what were you doing with marty ? john : as you know , cole called me and i promised i 'd find her . she did n't come home last night . blair : you know , john , i -- no , no . john : what ? blair : what are we doing to each other ? [ scene_break ] todd : no , joplin ai n't talking . téa : everyone leaves a trail , even dead people . todd : she did n't say anything . téa : i would n't be so sure . dr. joplin was a respected obstetrician . she agreed to tell starr her baby died . she conspired to kidnapping . do n't you think maybe she -- if i were her , i would want to get that off my chest . todd : no . no , if she told someone , then she 'd have to explain why she went along with my plan . téa : right . because you were threatening to expose her for covering up for her son , who stole drugs from the hospital . but this is a woman with a conscience . she committed suicide after she realized that she missed the diagnosis of starr 's baby . do n't you think she confided in someone ? a psychiatrist , a priest -- i do n't know . todd : no , no , no . téa : why not ? todd : you do n't know -- you ca n't know to what lengths a parent will go to protect their child . [ scene_break ] schuyler : starr , you 're not in any way responsible for my mother 's death . starr : when we found out how hope died , my aunt dorian freaked out at your mom . she said horrible things to her . she tried to get her fired . schuyler : that 's not it . that 's not it . my mother was a great doctor , but she missed something that she should n't have . starr : no . my blood was incompatible with my baby 's father 's blood . and it 's very unusual in first babies , so schuyler : i know . she made an assumption , and she was wrong . if she had not done that , she could have saved your baby . now , i know my mother , and that thought would have been intolerable to her . starr : she did the best that she could . it was a very messed up situation . schuyler : you really -- you do n't blame her , do you ? starr : no . schuyler : well , i do n't blame you for my mother 's death . and you need to know that , okay ? if anything , i 'm the one to blame . [ scene_break ] cole : look , i do n't know , man . asher : come on man , with the problems you got -- your mom , your baby . you 'll feel like you 're flying right over them . like you 're free . cole : how much ? [ scene_break ] bo : well , what 's wrong ? is matthew sick ? is he hurt ? nora : no , no . it 's nothing like that . bo : hey , nora , hold on one second , okay ? i got the other line . do n't go anywhere . can i call you right back ? nora : do you have to ? bo : well , the mayor is on the other line . nora : i 'm coming down to the station . bo : all right , good . renee : hide from whom ? [ door opening ] nora : hi . renee : hi . nora : is matthew still upstairs in his room ? renee : i think so . are you all right ? nora : what ? yeah . fine . you ? renee : uh , yes . yes , yes . i 'm just anxious about asa 's will . nora : oh honey , it 's going to be okay . it 'll be fine . renee : yes . nora : okay . bye . renee : bye . lee . darling , you have to tell me , what is going on here ? janet : up until the night the police found marty saybrooke living with him , i worked for todd manning . [ scene_break ] téa : her son 's name is schuyler joplin . todd : yeah , i know . who would hang a name like that on a kid ? no wonder he was a drug user . [ téa laughs ] téa : were he and his mother close ? todd : i have no idea . she and i were n't exactly chummy . téa : and yet , she risked her practice to cover for him . todd : sure , would n't you ? téa : do you think maybe she got sick of covering for him ? that maybe she spilled the beans in an effort to get him to quit ? todd : no , no , no . he was already off the stuff . he 's a teacher or something , i do n't know . and she would never out him for something he was doing when he was on drugs . téa : i wonder if she kept a diary . if she did , i need to get my hands on it . todd : good luck with that . téa : i wo n't need it . todd : where are you going now ? téa : to find out what the prosecution knows . [ knocking at door ] téa : talk to you later . i hope that 's not blair . i do n't like blair -- todd : what do you want ? [ scene_break ] john : you tell me . what are we doing ? blair : come on . this is game playing . john : that 's not what 's happening . blair : well , from where i stand , it feels that way to me . john : meaning what ? blair : new year 's eve . it really started out great . you know , i really thought that you were happy with me in your life . john : and i meant everything i said . blair : yeah , well , then the wind changed and you just sailed back to marty again . john : that 's not what happened . cole was worried , and you told me to go . blair : yeah . and you told me that you were coming back , but you did n't . you know -- you know the christmas gift that you gave me ? what if we had gone on it , and we were down on that beautiful island alone together , and cole had called ? would you have gotten on the next flight back to come rescue marty again ? you know , forget it . i already know the answer . [ scene_break ] gigi : rex , please give that to me . rex : what , this ? gigi : do n't be a jerk . rex : are you calling the father of your son a jerk ? gigi : you 're going to make me late for work . and we need the money . rex : no . see , now i 'm feeling pretty flush . see , someone got someone to book puddle of mudd into my club . it is a huge hot spot again . gigi : rex . i guess i have a little bit of time . just a little . [ scene_break ] john : let 's get one thing straight . i would n't have planned the trip if i did n't want to go away with you . blair : well , you 're not the vacationing type . john : exactly . blair : so do you really want to go away with me , or are you just running away from your feelings for marty ? john : oh , what would you like to hear , blair ? blair : i just want you to be honest with me , john . john : i am being honest with you . i was worried about marty . i was worried about cole . you know , i vaguely remember having a conversation with you where we said we were n't going to make ridiculous demands of one another . blair : i just do n't want to be involved with a man -- another man who 's obsessed with marty saybrooke , okay ? john : i get it now . blair : get what ? john : all this stuff you 're throwing at me . it 's so you do n't have to admit to yourself that you ca n't get the bastard out of your system . [ scene_break ] todd : well , what do you want ? viki : if you 're asking why i 'm here , it 's because of téa . téa : i have work to do . thank you . viki : how are you ? todd : i 've never been better . viki : okay . i did n't come here to listen to sarcasm . todd : what did you come here for ? viki : my god , you tried to kill yourself ? todd : téa 's got a big mouth . viki : it 's a good thing she does . todd : there 's nothing like trying to commit suicide to bring all the haters to your side again . viki : todd . todd . it 's really not funny . you tried to kill yourself . personally , i would just as soon you did n't finish the job . [ scene_break ] renee : you worked for todd manning ? janet : not in the beginning . i was hired by lee ramsey to be his housekeeper . renee : lee ? oh my god , the former police commissioner ? janet : yes . and then he was murdered , and that 's when todd hired me . renee : so you were the one who was helping todd take care of marty saybrooke . janet : yes . renee : i see . and did you have any idea of what was going on there ? janet : renee , no . i was just trying to take care of her . i had no idea she had a son . i had no idea she had so many people here who loved her . i had no idea the last person she wanted to see in her life was todd manning . i did n't know . and now the police want to question me . renee : yes , i 'm sure that they would . darling , come on . let 's sit down here . lee , you and i have to be very straight with one another . you know that you were on a slippery slope with the law a good number of times . janet : yes , i know . renee : all right . are you in trouble with the law right now ? janet : no . renee : all right then . janet : who are you calling ? renee : my stepson , bo buchanan . [ scene_break ] bo : i just got off the phone with the mayor . talia : is he still on the warpath ? bo : oh , yeah . you know , after six months of telling us to back off manning , now he 's gunning for a conviction on the kidnapping charge . antonio : well , at least we 're on the same side . talia : maybe that 's why we got the court order to release todd manning 's phone records . bo : anything on janet ketring ? antonio : no indication that she fled jurisdiction . talia : yeah , we 've had no luck in finding her yet . antonio : yeah , but we 're still on it . bo : ah , good . nora : hi , have you got a minute ? bo : yeah , come on in . bo : why nora , where did you get that ? nora : i found it . at home . bo : oh , man . you know , i thought cole had more sense than that . nora : that 's not cole 's . that 's matthew 's . [ scene_break ] janet : no . renee , no . you ca n't call the police . renee : why not ? if anybody can help , it would be bo or nora hanen , the district attorney . janet : no , no , no no no . please , just stop . renee : just a moment . just a moment . you just told me that you were not involved in anything illegal . janet : okay , i know . i know . but maybe i heard one or two things , and if i talk to the police , or if i talk to the d.a . , todd will have me killed . renee : why have n't you left town ? janet : i tried to . but the minute they caught todd , they wanted to talk to me . renee : darling , i 'm afraid i ca n't keep you here . it 's breaking the law , and i ca n't think of one good reason to do that . janet : i can . [ scene_break ] bo : matthew ? no . come on , that 's impossible . nora : it fell out of his backpack . bo : have you talked to him about this ? nora : no . no , i wanted to talk to you first . what do you think we should to about this ? bo : i 'll tell you what we 're going to do about it . we 're going to ground him for life . there 's no more cell phone , none of these video games . i ca n't believe this . nora : well , bo , now i know you 're angry . bo : you know , we 've talked a hundred times about drugs . he knows better . what 's he thinking ? nora : well , he 's a teenager . he 's not really good at that . bo : well he better get good at it , and fast , because he 's in big trouble . where is he now ? nora : he 's at home , having some cocoa . bo : what -- like a little stoner . nora : oh , now , bo . he 's not a criminal . bo : well , he should n't act like one . nora : well , maybe this was just -- you know , he might 've just been curious about this . bo : i do n't care what he is . nora : all right , you know what ? if you value the relationship that you have with your son , then you should sit down and talk about this rationally . [ scene_break ] starr : i do n't get it , how can you blame yourself for your mother 's death ? schuyler : oh , let 's just say i let her down in a pretty significant way . starr : but , still schuyler : anyway , i 'm your teacher . we do n't need to be talking about this . starr : it 's okay . look , i know how you feel . i used to blame myself for things that my father did all the time . i used to think it was my fault . i thought maybe if i did n't choose to be with cole , things would be different . but sooner or later , you just realize that they just are who they are . schuyler : you 're very wise for your age . for any age , actually . my mother , she was very focused . very concentrated . even when she had huge problems in her life . but those last few months , she started to forget things . she started to get upset over nothing . and i just could n't figure it out . starr : when she told us how my baby died , she said that she had a lot on her mind . schuyler : i wish i knew why . [ scene_break ] téa : find out everything you can about dr. leah joplin . friends , colleagues , where she went to church , where she got her hair done . i want it all .

[ scene_break ] talia : a woman fitting janet ketring 's description checked into the skyllan motel on november 13th . téa : may i ? talia : sorry , no . téa : i 'm entitled to see every piece of evidence that comes through this office . it 's called discovery . antonio : actually , if i remember correctly , you 're only entitled to information the district attorney has in relation to the case . no access without subpoena . téa : ah . you 'll be seeing a lot of those . antonio : good . good , so then why are you snooping around ? you getting nervous ? téa : why are you hedging ? afraid you still have nothing ? [ scene_break ] todd : relax , i 'm not going to off myself . viki : good , i 'm relieved to hear that . todd : but i do n't know why you care . you wrote me off . viki : yes . but , it does n't necessarily mean that i want you dead . i just got sick of trying to convince myself that , deep down inside , you were good . todd : and now you 're sure i 'm not . viki : pretty much , yeah . you crossed a line that i never imagined you 'd cross . you hurt your own children , especially starr . and it was n't an accident , you did it deliberately . you knowingly hurt starr . i can not fathom how you could do that . todd : is this your idea of a pep talk ? viki : you are finally going to have to take responsibility for your actions . todd : ah , yes . so i can redeem myself . so i can change . i already tried that with marty . viki : oh , come on . todd : i was a better man with her . viki : a better man . you lied to a woman who has amnesia . you did n't tell her she has a son . you planned to steal your daughter 's child . that makes you a better man ? todd : that 's not what i meant . viki : no , of course not . because you bend reality to fit your warped perspective . this time , though , you hit a dead end . and i suspect that 's why you tried to kill yourself . you have to stop lying to yourself and everyone else . look , i 'm your sister , and i know that behind all these flip remarks , you really are in despair . and the good news is that once you hit bottom , there 's nowhere to go but up . so i 'd like to believe that there is still hope for you . [ scene_break ] blair : i 'll tell you why i went to see todd . because he 's the father of my children . and he pulls a stupid stunt by jumping off a roof to kill himself , and i wanted to make sure he did n't do that again . [ scene_break ] todd : most of the people i know would like to see me dead , um , including the woman that i 'm in love with . my three children wo n't or are not allowed to see me . i 'm looking at 25 years to life in prison . so i -- you 're going to have to tell me where i can find this hope because i ca n't seem to find any . viki : well , you might try to go back to a time in your life when you were at your lowest and then remember that what brought you back was a glimmer of hope . todd : i 'm sorry . i ca n't remember a time like that . viki : i can . [ scene_break ] john : and you 're still in love with him . [ phone ringing ] blair : you better get it . could be marty . john : it could be . cole : hey , john , it 's cole . just calling to see if you found out where my mom is , if she still has n't come home . look , i -- i 'm kind of freaking out and i do n't know what to do . blair : i never said that i was in love with todd . i did n't . i may not be completely over him but i 'm certainly not in love with him , john . i ca n't throw our complete history out the window . if i did that , i would negate my children , and they 're half him . i -- i could never love a man who has caused that much pain to starr , and i certainly could never love a man who thinks love is some sick thing that he did to marty . but i can tell you this . i 'm not going to sit around waiting for a man who leaves me over and over again to go chase after another woman . [ scene_break ] nora : you know , maybe this was a one - time thing . bo : that does not make it okay . nora : oh , i know that , but you ca n't just go and accuse your child without listening to him first . do you remember that -- do you remember when he -- when he took bobby decker 's baseball card , you know ? and we went to him and we said , you know , we know you took it . just hand it over . bo : yeah , and he lied . he said he did n't take it . nora : exactly . bo : that was a baseball card . this is marijuana . nora : if we put him on the defensive about this , the conversation ends there . bo : oh , i can make him talk . nora : oh , my god , bo , he 's not a suspect or a prisoner . he 's your son . he 's our child who we love more than anything else in this world . look , come on , how about we go calmly and sit him down and talk rationally ? bo : okay . nora : let 's go talk to the stoner . come on , you -- what , i -- come on .

and he must have not known the crew 's timeline . i was lucky . hope : thomas , i was in hell . i thought i was going to lose everything . thomas : i 'm sorry . i just -- i wanted you to see -- hope : what ? the real you ? how much you care ? thomas : look , i 've made a lot of mistakes , but i 'm not a bad person . sometimes i go too far , but it 's only 'cause i love you so much . shauna : do you really think that there 's anything brooke could say about thomas that you 'd wan na hear ? ridge : no , probably not . shauna : i 'm really sorry that things are so difficult for you right now . i think your commitment to thomas is really beautiful , though . thomas : that did n't come out right . look , i 'm not trying to make you uncomfortable . i just ... i 'm trying to tell you how i feel . and i did n't know how you felt about me . but the way you reacted when you saw me ... hope : i would never want anything bad to happen to you , for douglas to mourn the loss of another parent ? i was horrified by what i did even though it was an accident . thomas : i was n't trying to torture you . i just -- i wanted you to see that good people sometimes do bad things . hope : so you did this to teach me a lesson ? thomas : i did this so you could understand how i felt when i did n't tell the truth about beth . the guilt that i felt , and i - i - i knew that i should 've -- how should i have reacted ? i should have told the truth . right ? but then i thought about how it would have affected other people and then i - i - i felt paralyzed . hope : like the words would n't come out . thomas : yes . yes , and now you can see how someone would do that -- even someone like you . [ knock on door ] brooke : honey ? i put douglas to bed . oh , my god . thomas ? thomas : yes , brooke . i 'm alive . ridge : i do n't think i 'd ever deny that my son 's made mistakes . shauna : and you have n't turned your back on him . ridge : i can't . shauna : you 're a devoted father . i admire that . ridge : well , brooke feels i should n't be defending him . shauna : well , i feel it 's one of your most attractive qualities . ridge : oh , thank you . shauna : you 're welcome . ridge : and this may sound weird , but ... brooke and i -- we 're on the same page with this . we -- we both defend our kids till the end . shauna : mm - hmm . ridge : that was never the problem . shauna : and the situation with thomas is different ? ridge : i do n't know . maybe it 's me . maybe i 'm different , you know ? 'cause my kids said , `` you always put brooke first . always , before our mom , even before us sometimes , `` and i do n't know . maybe i never really saw it that way , but -- but now ... um ... shauna : brooke forced you to choose . ridge : i 'm trying to think when this started . it was ... this -- this whole thing with douglas . brooke said it 'd be a good idea for him to live with hope and liam for a while . it 's temporary , and i thought that was a good idea . but hope and brooke -- they never thought of this as temporary , ever . why -- why would thomas sign those papers ? why did n't he come to me ? shauna : i do n't know . i 'm sure if there 's a way to undo it , you 'll fix it . you 're kind of magical like that . ridge : [ laughs ] oh . okay . well ... magic or not , thomas is not gon na lose custody of his little boy . thomas : you never thought you 'd see me again , huh , brooke ? hope : it 's okay , mom . thomas is fine . brooke : how ? thomas : how am i alive ? brooke : you fell in the acid , and hope was looking for you . we thought you had ... thomas : been melted away ? dissolved by the acid ? well , i would 've been if it had been acid . brooke : but it wasn't . hope : no . thomas : it was a high - powered cleaning solution . i heard some of the crew guys talking about it when i got out of there , but apparently , i did n't miss the real stuff by too much . brooke : [ gasps ] thank god . i ca n't believe this . i am so relieved . thomas : you really mean that ? brooke : yes . yes , i mean that , thomas . i know that we have n't had the best relationship for some years , but i do n't wish any harm to come to you . thomas : you thought i was dead . brooke : and it broke my heart imagining what your father would feel if he were to find out . thomas : you were with him . why did n't you tell him ? brooke : well , i was going to . thomas : but you kept it a secret . hope : oh , she was afraid for me , thomas . brooke : hope had so much guilt . you had to know what this was doing to her . where were you if you were n't hurt ? you did n't want hope to ... to think that you were dead ? thomas : hope knows i did that to , uh , to prove a point . brooke : [ gasps ] thomas : sometimes people make terrible choices , decisions that -- that they regret . they keep secrets instead of telling the truth , and i know all about how that feels . and now so do you . brooke : we were n't gon na keep this a secret . i mean , i was going to tell ridge . thomas : you should do that . you should tell him everything . i mean , unless you 'd rather him hear it from me first . okay , look , brooke , you deserve the opportunity to tell him your side of the story . you thought that hope was responsible for my death , and so you were protecting her . and he 'll understand that . i mean , that 's exactly what he 's been doing for me . i also hope that you 'll understand more why i kept the secret about beth . the secret really changed things ... for all of us . brooke : well , i think that you should go with me , thomas . your dad really wanted to see you . thomas : i 'll be there soon . hope : i 'll be fine ... mom . brooke : honey . hope : no , it 's okay , really . brooke : i 'll be back soon . thomas : your , uh ... your mom thought i was ... threatening her , but i wasn't . please tell me that ... you -- you 're starting to see me differently now . it was in this small little village- shauna : thomas and douglas are gon na be okay . you 're gon na help them get through this . ridge : i urged thomas over and over again not to sign those papers . so did steffy . shauna : well , when you figure it out , i 'm sure you 'll fix it . ridge : i will use my magic . why not ? shauna : [ chuckles ] yes , you will . and if it gets too stressful and lonely , then i 'll use some of my magic . i am really good at pep talks and backrubs . ridge : [ chuckles ] well , if , uh , if i ever need a ... pep talk , i 'll know who to ask . shauna : okay , well , good . i - i do n't wan na get in the middle of anything . i just want you to know that i am here for you . ridge : i know that . thank you . shauna : and if you do want a backrub , you know where to find me .

eric : you were just over at spectra ? brooke : i went there to talk to thorne . stephanie : did you congratulate him on how well they 're doing ? brooke : no . there 's a problem . eric : what kind of a problem ? brooke : nobody 's picking up the new spectra couture line . despite all the positive publicity . eric : well , if that 's true , i 'm sure it 's just temporary . once nick announces that jackie m is going to carry the line , the others will follow suit . brooke : if nick were picking it up . but he is n't . stephanie : did he say that ? brooke : yes . stephanie : did he tell you why ? eric : i 'm going to go over and talk to him . brooke : no , somebody already did . stephanie : who ? brooke : ridge . before he left for europe . he told nick if he were going to carry the new spectra couture line , he was going to pull forrester from every jackie m boutique . stephanie : what nick : first sally , and brooke , now you . i should just put a revolving door in here . thorne : well this is important , so i 'll get right to the point . i want to discuss our brother 's ultimatum . and why you 're letting ridge jack you around . maitre d ' : follow me , please . watch your step . miss ramirez . caitlin : you remembered my name . maitre d ' : from your first time here with mr. forrester . caitlin : a lot 's happened since then . maitre d ' : apparently , all of it good . i will send your waiter right over . caitlin : he 's right , you know . it is all good . and it 'll be even better a month from now . when you 're back home and we 're more in love than ever . rick : so , you hungry ?

rick : no , no . it 's just -- do you remember the first time i brought you here ? caitlin : are you kidding ? i remember every moment . seriously , what we were going to eat . what i was wearing . what you were wearing . i had never been to a place like this before . not that it really mattered where we were . because after the first few moments , the only thing i saw was you . it 's still that way . umm -- this is where you 're supposed to say it 's like that for you , too . it is like that for you , is n't it , rick ? waiter : good evening . welcome to cafe russe . my name is greg . can i get you started with something to drink ? or would you like to hear tonight 's specials first ? eric : forrester is not pulling out of jackie m , and for ridge to strong - arm nick into thinking we are -- stephanie : eric . eric , just call nick and tell him that ridge was not authorized to say something like that . brooke : i would n't do that . ridge is adamant about this . if you reverse his decision -- eric : his decision ? it 's not his decision to make . not by himself , anyway . i 'm the ceo of this company . brooke : eric , i know that . but i 've spoken to him on the phone . he has some very solid reasons for doing this . stephanie : all well and good , but he has no right to issue any kind of an ultimatum on our behalf . eric : it 's not the way we do business . stephanie : i hope the press has n't found out about this . eric : or thorne . does he know ? stephanie : is that why you went over to see him ? to deliver the `` good news ? `` oh , god , you 're so thoughtless . nick : first of all , nobody dictates my decisions . thorne : well , that did n't stop our brother from threatening to -- nick : i know what he was threatening . even though we do n't know each other that well . i understand what 's at stake for you and for spectra . thorne : but ? nick : there 's an exclusivity clause in the contract between jackie m and forrester . i checked with the attorneys , and i hate attorneys , so this is n't some figment of forrester 's imagination . now , if i challenge this contract , that means i have legal battles for months . that means forrester could try to use his connections to try to -- thorne : pressure you into buckling ? nick : but i do n't buckle . i do n't walk away from fights . legal or otherwise . the issue here is risk . if i take on spectra , i risk losing forrester that 's a proven winner . now mind you , i know nothing about dresses . i 'm like a seaman in a desert storm . but i know business , and that 's not smart business . and this boils down to business . thorne : for you . but for ridge , it 's personal . he 's trying to strike back at me through you . he 's using you , nick . nick : so you 're threatening me now , too ? thorne : no , that 's ridge 's style . i 'm here to help you . nick : help me ? thorne : to get out from under ridge 's thumb , nick . i know that 's not the way you like to do business . ridge calling the shots . hell , you did n't like it when he was here at marrone . nick : this is a shipping company . we 're talking about fashion . his turf . thorne : well , it sounds like to me he wants to make jackie m his turf . look , i grew up with this guy , okay . i know him . nick , if you let him get away with this , he will come back again and again demanding more each time . do n't give him more power . give him competition , and give yourself more leverage for the next he comes in here and starts threatening your business . you can throw him out . nick : there 's not going to be a next time . thorne : well , if you think that , then you do n't know ridge . nick : but i know what he 's doing . he 's not trying to run my business , thorne . he 's trying to run you out of business . that 's his goal . thorne : and he 's using you to do it . that does n't bother you ? nick : not particularly . thorne : look , nick , you 've stood up to him before . nick : i do n't hold grudges . thorne : maybe not . but you do recognize the tactics . it 'd be one thing , nick , if he was really trying to help my father 's company , but this vendetta is purely personal . nick : i know that . thorne : and you 're okay with that ? his chief weapon against us ? nick : i 'm nobody 's weapon . thorne : but without you and your cooperation , he 'd get nowhere , nick . all you have to do is -- nick : what ? no , go on , tell me , what ? stand up to him and strike a blow for victims everywhere ? now that might work for your team rallying around the cause . it 's a good cause . thorne : well , if you feel -- nick : let me finish ! i like what you 're doing . i like what you 've done for your sister . given her some identity in this family , got out of ridge 's shadow . i understand that you 're counting on me signing on with your team . thorne : we 're natural allies . nick : i know that . the deck 's stacked against us . our backs have been against the wall . thorne : we can change that , nick . if we work together , we can change that . we can change that for a lot of people . caitlin : so , i was thinking , while you 're away we can e - mail pictures to each other . and i 've already figured out the time difference between here and milan . and it 'll be a little tricky coordinating calls , but we 'll get the hang of it , right ? rick ? rick : oh , i 'm sorry . what ? caitlin : oh , no , i 'm sorry . for rattling on like that . it 's just -- i really wish you were n't going . rick : caitlin , i have to go , it 's business . i want to go . it 's just , you know , my dad 's really counting on me and i do n't want to disappoint him or forrester . and if i 'm constantly worrying about keeping in touch with you -- i just think maybe we could be a little more realistic about this , do n't you ? nick : i 'm not interested in refereeing some grudge match between you and the queen dressmaker . besides , that 's not who you should be talking to , anyway . thorne : look , if you mean ridge -- nick : i do n't . i mean , your parents , or brooke . thorne : i have talked to her . nick : well then you know she 's not as gung - ho with this as her husband . thorne : she 's not . nick : still , she 'll back him probably . thorne : actually , nick , i may have gotten through to her . nick : that so ? so you got your parents . you got brooke . thorne : uh - huh . which means that i would have the majority shareholders on my side . which means that ridge would have no choice but to back down . nick : well , there you go . looks to me like your problems are solved . thorne : but still , it would n't need to come to that , nick , would it ? nick : thorne , i like your company . i like underdogs . i like the whole `` rah , rah `` spirit , plus i kind of got the hots for your sister . but i have made my position perfectly clear here , have n't i ? thorne : yes , you have . nick : however , if you were to convince forrester to stay in -- thorne : you 'd carry our line ? nick : you bet . you make nice dresses . thorne : that 's all i need to hear , nick . thank you . thank you . brooke : must you always think the worst of me ? i stopped by spectra to explain to thorne -- stephanie : why his brother is still attacking him for no apparent reason ? brooke : ridge is not attacking anybody . he 's just trying to protect forrester . eric : protect forrester from what ? brooke : for starters , from sharing shelf space with lower - quality brands that 's going to reflect badly on forrester . stephanie : oh , like spectra couture by thorne forrester . brooke : yes , stephanie . like spectra couture by thorne forrester . ridge is concerned that the public is going to get confused by the labels . that spectra is going to be some kind of subsidiary of forrester creations . and just think what that would do to marketing . eric : not to mention sales . brooke : so you agree . eric : i agree that ridge has a point , i do . but i disagree completely with his tactics . that he would take such a hard line about this . especially knowing what it will do to his brother . stephanie : well thorne was feeling so positive about everything after the competition . eric : we all were . or so i thought . stephanie : you think this has affected ridge in some way ? eric : what ? that thorne was able to hold his own against him ? stephanie : did he say anything to you ? are his feelings hurt in some way ? brooke , could you please answer me . brooke : yes . but this is n't about the showing . this is about -- ridge overheard what you said to thorne . eric : what i said to thorne ? brooke : after the showing . how he 's -- stephanie : oh , he heard you say thorne 's `` our only son . `` eric : ridge was n't supposed to hear that . but thorne needed to hear that . for so many reasons . especially then . stephanie : brooke , it does n't mean that we love ridge any less . brooke : yes , i know that . but you have to understand that ridge is hurting over this . he did n't want to admit it , even to me . so make no mistake , he needs his parents ' support right now just as much as his brother does . thorne : oh great , you 're still here . i just came from seeing nick . mother , dad , i 'm going to need your support like never before . caitlin : you do n't think i 'm being realistic ? rick : i think you 're doing what a lot of girls your age would be doing in this situation . you 've got everything planned out . how we 're going to call and e - mail . but what happens when i ca n't call you because i 'm in a meeting ? or you ca n't get in touch with me because i 'm at a showing with -- i guess what i 'm trying to say , caitlin , is that -- caitlin : you wo n't be putting your life on hold while you 're away . rick : and i do n't want you to , either . i want you to feel free to do you own thing , okay ? i want you to go to dances . i want you to hang out with your friends . the thought of you sitting at home , waiting by the phone to hear from me , that 's not what i want for you , caitlin . yet , here i am with all these adult responsibilities , and here you are -- a teenager . i just do n't want you to miss out on all the things you should be enjoying in your life right now , because you 're too wrapped up in mine . which is n't even mine , it belongs to forrester international now . and it will for the foreseeable future . but you -- you 've got school and your job and your family . i know how much your parents mean to you . finding samantha was a miracle . and almost as soon as you did , you got wrapped up in `` ingenue . `` we started seeing each other -- you did n't get to spend any time with your family , caitlin . that 's my fault . that 's not what i want for you . oh , caitlin . do n't cry . you do n't understand . caitlin : yes , i do . rick : it 's not that i 've stopped caring . it 's just -- i lost so much of my life tied down with amber . and i do not want that to happen to you . caitlin : i get it , rick . you do n't have to say it anymore . rick : i 'm sorry . i do n't want to hurt you . i never meant to hurt you . but -- caitlin : we have to face reality . i get that , too . i 'm sorry , i ca n't talk about this anymore . rick : caitlin , wait . caitlin : good - bye , rick . eric : you need our support ? thorne : i 've already asked brooke for hers . did you tell them what 's going on ? can you believe this ? what ridge is doing ? shutting me out like this ? after everything i 've accomplished so far . you know , i do n't get it . i mean , what possible reason does he have to put up this kind of roadblock ? i mean , other than the obvious . eric : so you went over and you saw nick ? thorne : yes , i thought i might be able to change his mind . stephanie : did you ? thorne : well , he 's in a very difficult situation , mother . courtesy of our brother . eric : so , ridge 's ultimatum had a big effect ? thorne : well , how can it not ? he threatened to pull forrester out of jackie m . stephanie : the rest of the couture houses will follow . thorne : exactly , mother . for fear of being tainted by the inferior spectra couture by thorne forrester . eric : there 's nothing inferior about your line , or the man who put it on the map . thorne : only we 're not on the map , yet . and we 're not gon na be , dad , if we do n't get a shot at the high - end boutiques . now , if everyone finds out why jackie m is not carrying our line , we 're finished . it 's over . that 's why i went to nick . to try to convince him to reconsider . brooke : has he ? thorne : he said that he would carry spectra couture if forrester gave him the green light . but the only way that is to happen -- stephanie : is if we give you our absolute support on this . thorne : which means going up against ridge . overriding him . which you three can do . and not to cause more conflict in this family , but to put an end to it once and for all . to tell ridge , `` it 's over . `` because that 's what we all want , is n't it ? brooke , look , i know he 's your husband . and i know that you love and support him . but i honestly believe in your heart , you do n't support this . not when you know how much harm it can cause . how much harm it 's already caused . dad , i know it 's not easy standing up to ridge . especially when he 's used to getting everything that he wants . but i did it . i stood up to him , and now -- eric : and now , it 's our turn . thorne : mom , i know you 're not comfortable making this decision without ridge being here . but i need to know your answer now . i need to know that what you said is really true . that you meant it . that the favoritism between me and my brother is over . can you do that , dad ? can you give me my chance to prove myself fair and square ? will you do that , dad ? for me ? | brooke told stephanie and eric that ridge overheard them refer to thorne as their only son . dominick agreed that jackie m. would carry the spectra designs if thorne could convince forrester not to pull their business . thorne went to see eric and stephanie and begged for them to finally put all the favoritism they 've shown to ridge in the past , and support him by allowing jackie m. to carry the spectra designs . | <s>[INST] eric : you were just over at spectra ?

stephanie : is that why you went over to see him ? to deliver the `` good news ? `` oh , god , you 're so thoughtless . nick : first of all , nobody dictates my decisions . thorne : well , that did n't stop our brother from threatening to -- nick : i know what he was threatening . even though we do n't know each other that well . i understand what 's at stake for you and for spectra . thorne : but ? nick : there 's an exclusivity clause in the contract between jackie m and forrester . i checked with the attorneys , and i hate attorneys , so this is n't some figment of forrester 's imagination . now , if i challenge this contract , that means i have legal battles for months . that means forrester could try to use his connections to try to -- thorne : pressure you into buckling ? nick : but i do n't buckle . i do n't walk away from fights . legal or otherwise . the issue here is risk . if i take on spectra , i risk losing forrester that 's a proven winner . now mind you , i know nothing about dresses . i 'm like a seaman in a desert storm . but i know business , and that 's not smart business . and this boils down to business . thorne : for you . but for ridge , it 's personal . he 's trying to strike back at me through you . he 's using you , nick . nick : so you 're threatening me now , too ? thorne : no , that 's ridge 's style . i 'm here to help you . nick : help me ? thorne : to get out from under ridge 's thumb , nick . i know that 's not the way you like to do business . ridge calling the shots . hell , you did n't like it when he was here at marrone . nick : this is a shipping company . we 're talking about fashion . his turf . thorne : well , it sounds like to me he wants to make jackie m his turf . look , i grew up with this guy , okay . i know him . nick , if you let him get away with this , he will come back again and again demanding more each time . do n't give him more power . give him competition , and give yourself more leverage for the next he comes in here and starts threatening your business . you can throw him out . nick : there 's not going to be a next time . thorne : well , if you think that , then you do n't know ridge . nick : but i know what he 's doing . he 's not trying to run my business , thorne . he 's trying to run you out of business . that 's his goal . thorne : and he 's using you to do it . that does n't bother you ? nick : not particularly . thorne : look , nick , you 've stood up to him before . nick : i do n't hold grudges . thorne : maybe not . but you do recognize the tactics . it 'd be one thing , nick , if he was really trying to help my father 's company , but this vendetta is purely personal . nick : i know that . thorne : and you 're okay with that ? his chief weapon against us ? nick : i 'm nobody 's weapon . thorne : but without you and your cooperation , he 'd get nowhere , nick . all you have to do is -- nick : what ? no , go on , tell me , what ? stand up to him and strike a blow for victims everywhere ? now that might work for your team rallying around the cause . it 's a good cause . thorne : well , if you feel -- nick : let me finish ! i like what you 're doing . i like what you 've done for your sister . given her some identity in this family , got out of ridge 's shadow . i understand that you 're counting on me signing on with your team . thorne : we 're natural allies . nick : i know that . the deck 's stacked against us . our backs have been against the wall . thorne : we can change that , nick . if we work together , we can change that . we can change that for a lot of people . caitlin : so , i was thinking , while you 're away we can e - mail pictures to each other . and i 've already figured out the time difference between here and milan . and it 'll be a little tricky coordinating calls , but we 'll get the hang of it , right ? rick ? rick : oh , i 'm sorry . what ? caitlin : oh , no , i 'm sorry . for rattling on like that . it 's just -- i really wish you were n't going . rick : caitlin , i have to go , it 's business . i want to go . it 's just , you know , my dad 's really counting on me and i do n't want to disappoint him or forrester . and if i 'm constantly worrying about keeping in touch with you -- i just think maybe we could be a little more realistic about this , do n't you ? nick : i 'm not interested in refereeing some grudge match between you and the queen dressmaker . besides , that 's not who you should be talking to , anyway . thorne : look , if you mean ridge -- nick : i do n't . i mean , your parents , or brooke . thorne : i have talked to her . nick : well then you know she 's not as gung - ho with this as her husband . thorne : she 's not . nick : still , she 'll back him probably . thorne : actually , nick , i may have gotten through to her . nick : that so ? so you got your parents . you got brooke . thorne : uh - huh . which means that i would have the majority shareholders on my side . which means that ridge would have no choice but to back down . nick : well , there you go . looks to me like your problems are solved . thorne : but still , it would n't need to come to that , nick , would it ? nick : thorne , i like your company . i like underdogs . i like the whole `` rah , rah `` spirit , plus i kind of got the hots for your sister . but i have made my position perfectly clear here , have n't i ? thorne : yes , you have . nick : however , if you were to convince forrester to stay in -- thorne : you 'd carry our line ? nick : you bet . you make nice dresses . thorne : that 's all i need to hear , nick . thank you . thank you . brooke : must you always think the worst of me ? i stopped by spectra to explain to thorne -- stephanie : why his brother is still attacking him for no apparent reason ? brooke : ridge is not attacking anybody . he 's just trying to protect forrester . eric : protect forrester from what ? brooke : for starters , from sharing shelf space with lower - quality brands that 's going to reflect badly on forrester . stephanie : oh , like spectra couture by thorne forrester . brooke : yes , stephanie . like spectra couture by thorne forrester . ridge is concerned that the public is going to get confused by the labels . that spectra is going to be some kind of subsidiary of forrester creations . and just think what that would do to marketing . eric : not to mention sales . brooke : so you agree . eric : i agree that ridge has a point , i do . but i disagree completely with his tactics . that he would take such a hard line about this . especially knowing what it will do to his brother . stephanie : well thorne was feeling so positive about everything after the competition . eric : we all were . or so i thought . stephanie : you think this has affected ridge in some way ? eric : what ? that thorne was able to hold his own against him ? stephanie : did he say anything to you ? are his feelings hurt in some way ? brooke , could you please answer me . brooke : yes . but this is n't about the showing . this is about -- ridge overheard what you said to thorne . eric : what i said to thorne ? brooke : after the showing . how he 's -- stephanie : oh , he heard you say thorne 's `` our only son . `` eric : ridge was n't supposed to hear that . but thorne needed to hear that . for so many reasons . especially then . stephanie : brooke , it does n't mean that we love ridge any less . brooke : yes , i know that . but you have to understand that ridge is hurting over this . he did n't want to admit it , even to me . so make no mistake , he needs his parents ' support right now just as much as his brother does . thorne : oh great , you 're still here . i just came from seeing nick . mother , dad , i 'm going to need your support like never before . caitlin : you do n't think i 'm being realistic ? rick : i think you 're doing what a lot of girls your age would be doing in this situation . you 've got everything planned out . how we 're going to call and e - mail . but what happens when i ca n't call you because i 'm in a meeting ? or you ca n't get in touch with me because i 'm at a showing with -- i guess what i 'm trying to say , caitlin , is that -- caitlin : you wo n't be putting your life on hold while you 're away . rick : and i do n't want you to , either . i want you to feel free to do you own thing , okay ? i want you to go to dances . i want you to hang out with your friends . the thought of you sitting at home , waiting by the phone to hear from me , that 's not what i want for you , caitlin . yet , here i am with all these adult responsibilities , and here you are -- a teenager . i just do n't want you to miss out on all the things you should be enjoying in your life right now , because you 're too wrapped up in mine . which is n't even mine , it belongs to forrester international now . and it will for the foreseeable future . but you -- you 've got school and your job and your family . i know how much your parents mean to you . finding samantha was a miracle . and almost as soon as you did , you got wrapped up in `` ingenue . `` we started seeing each other -- you did n't get to spend any time with your family , caitlin . that 's my fault . that 's not what i want for you . oh , caitlin . do n't cry . you do n't understand . caitlin : yes , i do . rick : it 's not that i 've stopped caring . it 's just -- i lost so much of my life tied down with amber . and i do not want that to happen to you . caitlin : i get it , rick . you do n't have to say it anymore . rick : i 'm sorry . i do n't want to hurt you . i never meant to hurt you . but -- caitlin : we have to face reality . i get that , too . i 'm sorry , i ca n't talk about this anymore . rick : caitlin , wait . caitlin : good - bye , rick . eric : you need our support ? thorne : i 've already asked brooke for hers . did you tell them what 's going on ? can you believe this ? what ridge is doing ? shutting me out like this ? after everything i 've accomplished so far . you know , i do n't get it . i mean , what possible reason does he have to put up this kind of roadblock ? i mean , other than the obvious . eric : so you went over and you saw nick ? thorne : yes , i thought i might be able to change his mind . stephanie : did you ? thorne : well , he 's in a very difficult situation , mother . courtesy of our brother . eric : so , ridge 's ultimatum had a big effect ? thorne : well , how can it not ? he threatened to pull forrester out of jackie m . stephanie : the rest of the couture houses will follow . thorne : exactly , mother . for fear of being tainted by the inferior spectra couture by thorne forrester . eric : there 's nothing inferior about your line , or the man who put it on the map . thorne : only we 're not on the map , yet . and we 're not gon na be , dad , if we do n't get a shot at the high - end boutiques . now , if everyone finds out why jackie m is not carrying our line , we 're finished . it 's over . that 's why i went to nick . to try to convince him to reconsider . brooke : has he ? thorne : he said that he would carry spectra couture if forrester gave him the green light . but the only way that is to happen -- stephanie : is if we give you our absolute support on this . thorne : which means going up against ridge . overriding him . which you three can do . and not to cause more conflict in this family , but to put an end to it once and for all . to tell ridge , `` it 's over . `` because that 's what we all want , is n't it ? brooke , look , i know he 's your husband . and i know that you love and support him . but i honestly believe in your heart , you do n't support this . not when you know how much harm it can cause . how much harm it 's already caused . dad , i know it 's not easy standing up to ridge . especially when he 's used to getting everything that he wants . but i did it . i stood up to him , and now -- eric : and now , it 's our turn . thorne : mom , i know you 're not comfortable making this decision without ridge being here . but i need to know your answer now . i need to know that what you said is really true . that you meant it . that the favoritism between me and my brother is over . can you do that , dad ? can you give me my chance to prove myself fair and square ? will you do that , dad ? for me ?Summarize.[/INST]brooke told stephanie and eric that ridge overheard them refer to thorne as their only son . dominick agreed that jackie m. would carry the spectra designs if thorne could convince forrester not to pull their business . thorne went to see eric and stephanie and begged for them to finally put all the favoritism they 've shown to ridge in the past , and support him by allowing jackie m. to carry the spectra designs .</s> | 5,933 |

[ door opens and shuts ] spinelli : it appears the divine one tried to foster accord between the betrayer and mr. sir . jason : that does n't make any sense . spinelli : oh . perhaps the jackal can offer some insight , for it 's been a pleasure and certainly a privilege to witness the divine one 's angelic nature first - hand . jason : yeah , but brenda 's been saying all along that she does n't want anything to do with sonny . why would she want to get in the middle of dante and sonny ?

( sighs ) jack : well , that was far less painful than i expected . kay : well , if it 's as good as it looks on paper . jack : it is . jabot will definitely benefit from this . kay : i 'm sure you did your homework . jack : well , nice to know you still have faith in me . kay : ( chuckles ) oh , jack , you 're still not gon na get in on the stock offering . jack : qué ser * -- it was n't meant to be . kay : ( chuckles ) i 'm so glad you understand . well , i really must run . i 've got another appointment . i 'll call you later on . ( telephone rings ) phyllis : ( sighs ) ( ring ) phyllis : hello , this is nicholas newman 's office . this is connie , his assistant . can i help you ? all right , well , i 'm -- i 'm sorry . you said you were patty 's nurse ? what -- what has she done now ? i 'm sorry . she wants to see nick ? no . no . that 's never gon na happen . thank you . nick : hey . what was that ? phyllis : nothing . i 'll handle it . ( sighs ) nick : okay . phyllis : okay . i 'm out . chance : ( groans ) nina : i thought you might like some snacks . chance : ( sighs ) a mixed fruit plate ? you used to make that for me when i was a kid . nina : yeah , well , do n't get used to it . i 've got better things to do than to cut up your fruit . chloe : you know , i hope that we did n't make you feel uncomfortable when you walked in on us , because you know we were not doing anything untoward or anything like that . chance : ( mouthing words ) nina : he needs his rest . chloe : and he is . and if he needs anything , i am here to help him . in fact , i 'm giving him a sponge bath later . chance : uh , so i see you , uh , you made a , uh , cream cheese and olive and tomato sandwich . it 's still my favorite . nina : yeah . ( sighs ) chance : thank you . nina : do you need anything else ? chance : no , i think i 'm good . nina : okay . chance : okay . thanks . chloe : ( chuckles ) ( scoffs ) oh . ( sighs ) well , thank you for being the sensible one . i know that sometimes my mouth runs a little bit faster than my brain . chance : chloe , that 's what i like about you . chloe : ( sighs ) chance : you do n't censor yourself . but i was trying to keep my mom 's head from exploding . chloe : too much ? chance : a sponge bath ? chloe : what ? i like sponge baths . ( laughs ) lily : so i think i 'm gon na make this for thanksgiving . it 's pink lady pie . it 's marshmallows , heavy cream , frozen raspberries and vanilla wafers . cane : are you trying to fatten me up ? lily : yes . cane : ( chuckles ) lily : hey , what time is it ? cane : uh , it 's early , but , uh , mac should be meeting with emily soon . lily : ( sighs ) i just -- i have this feeling like it 's meant to be , you know ? cane : mm - hmm . lily : and if dr . peterson files her report today , then mac can start her estrogen shots , and she could be pregnant in two weeks , and then we could have our baby 40 weeks from then . cane : i know . i know . but just one step at a time , my love , okay ? lily : do you want to know if it 's a boy or a girl ? cane : all i care about is that the baby 's gon na be healthy and the mom is gon na be healthy . lily : well , i want to know how to decorate the nursery , 'cause i do n't want any of that yellow or green stuff . cane : ( chuckles ) lily : i want either pink or blue . cane : uh , all right . okay . but we still have some time to paint the nursery . lily : i know . i know . cane : listen , um , i do n't want any of this to stress you out for your chemo sessions . you know that , right ? lily : cane ... cane : mm - hmm . lily : i 'm not stressed ... cane : mm - hmm . lily : okay ? i 'm just -- i 'm really excited . cane : so am i. i am excited to say good - bye to my old life and to start this wonderful new life with you . mm . i love you . lily : i love you . ( doorbell rings ) cane : you hold that thought . lily : okay . cane : ( sighs ) phillip : hey . cane : hey . phillip : how are you ? cane : i 'm good . what 's going on ? phillip : how you doing ? lily : good . billy : hey , come on . come on . i did n't say that lily and cane do n't deserve a kid . can we just -- why do n't we just sit down here , and we can discuss it rationally ? mac : ( sighs ) i ca n't -- there 's too much between us . i ca n't just pretend to be detached . it hurts . billy : it hurts me , too . so why are we doing this to each other ? mac : because you want to control me . billy : i do n't want to control you . i just want you to consider my feelings . mac : i 'm being honest with you , billy . and as hard as this is , it 's not gon na stop me from going through with it . i 'm committed to being a surrogate for lily and cane . how many times have you said `` that 's a deal - breaker `` ? billy : i do n't know . let 's just sit down and discuss it rationally . mac : there 's nothing to discuss . your attitude is a deal - breaker for me . billy : i 'm not just losing the woman i love , okay ? i 'm losing my best friend . mac : well , maybe someday , we can be friends again . billy : you know what ? this whole thing is nuts . this is crazy . this -- this -- this -- this entire thing could be moot . y - you said so yourself . you have n't even gone through the entire evaluation . what if they find out that you 're not a good candidate for surrogacy , huh ? then we 've broken up for nothing , for something that 's not even real . mac : i want to do this . it 's given me a purpose . i 'm doing something valuable , and you want to stand in the way of that . that 's as real as it gets . billy : mac , you have empathy for everyone you meet , okay ? why do n't you just put up with me for a little bit , okay ? so -- so we can talk about this rationally ? i - i know i 'm hardheaded , okay ? i know that . but you 're the only one that can get through to me . so if you want me to change , fine . good . sit down here ... ( pats chair ) and help me change . ( door opens ) mac : bye , billy . billy : come on . kay : well , neil , i could n't agree with you more . well , the more subdued jack is , the less i trust him . oh , by the way , now a mutual friend of ours in new york says he 's very busy nosing around about the stock offerings . mm - hmm . well , you stay alert . just -- you know , heads - up . mm - hmm . nina : ( sighs ) kay : well , hello , dear . nina : ( groans ) that girl -- that she - wolf , she 's driving me insane . kay : uh , you mean chloe ? nina : who else ? kay : well , i 've gotten close to her this past year , and ... nina : ( sighs ) kay : um , beneath that exterior of hers -- nina : she delights in torturing me . she has no respect . kay : unlike the deference with which you treated jill ? nina : i am so sick of that comparison . after jill hid her son away at boarding school for so long , she had no idea who he was or what could make him -- kay : happy ? hmm ? nina : i know . i just heard myself . kay : ( chuckles ) nina : none of us knew who phillip was or what he needed . kay : ( sighs ) nina : and chance is a grown man . i ca n't presume to know what he wants or needs , either . kay : he has to make his own choices . and , um , anything otherwise , you 'll be begging for trouble . nina : i just want to see my son happy . kay : you know , chance is recovering , and , um , uh , your family is reunited , and , uh , well , uh , a thousand miles apart from where we were last year . nina , now come on . come on , sweetheart . you have to stop fretting . you got ta start enjoying . phillip : i did n't mean to chase lily away . cane : yeah , that 's okay . she 's getting ready to go out . so , uh , how 's chance ? phillip : better . cane : good . phillip : yeah , thanks . hey , uh , i got a call from quinn . the pub 's been vandalized . cane : do they know who did it ? was it the duffers ? phillip : yeah , damn cattle rustlers . one of the guys got knifed in prison . cane : and now they 're all worked up , huh ? phillip : yeah , 'cause they blame you for breaking up the organization and putting them away in the first place . i 'm afraid if they find out where i am , they 're coming for you . cane : ( sighs ) i will handle this . phillip : no , buddy . no , you wo n't . we had a deal . you did a favor for me with my family , and i was supposed to cover for you . cane : that 's right , and i blew my end of the deal , and you 're off the hook . phillip : if i go back , i can protect you . cane : we will go back together , and we 'll put an end to this once and for all , okay ? phillip : no , wait a minute . man , you got a wife . you got a wife in chemo . she needs you . you 're not going anywhere . cane : now you want to talk about timing ? we just got a surrogate for the baby . phillip : that 's great . you ca n't leave now . cane : you know what ? maybe this will just blow over by itself , you know ? phillip : i would n't be able to forgive myself if something happened to quinn or the lads . do me a favor , all right ? do n't tell anybody this . cane : okay . did you tell your family ? what do they say ? phillip : i do n't want to worry them . cane : all right , listen , phillip , you got ta tell your family about this . phillip : cane , look , my mother , mrs. chancellor , they 're so fond of you . you 're part of the family now . cane : mm - hmm . phillip : okay ? if they think that i 'm going back for you , all that progress is gon na be lost . cane : all right , listen , okay ? this is really noble of you , all right ? but -- phillip : no `` buts . `` no `` buts , `` man . no , there 's no sense of us both causing them pain . i 'm pulling rank here , okay ? it 's my family , my decision , my rules . you 're staying here , i 'm leaving -- that 's the way it is . you got ta respect that . cane : okay , i respect that , but i 'm not very happy about it . but if it 's what you want ... phillip : all right , and good luck with the baby . cane : ( sighs ) nick : was n't he involved in that money laundering scheme in the ' 90s ? yeah , that 's what i thought . i 'm not doing business with this guy . okay , i 'll talk to you later . hey , jack . i still do n't have an answer for you yet . jack : take all the time you need . i thought i would drop by a few figures on how this stock deal could play out . even if chancellor 's initial public offering tanks -- and i 'm not saying it will . i 'm saying anything 's possible -- newman will enjoy tax write - offs without investing a dime . nick : and the catch ? jack : there is no catch . nick , i told you what i 'm after . i want my family to have a strong influence in jabot . i would think you of all people would understand that , just as i understand the high you get sitting at that desk running newman . both of us were born and bred to run our family businesses . nick : ( sighs ) jack , i ca n't just make this decision on a whim . jack : sure . i think you 'll find it plays out to your advantage . take your time . have you run any of this by phyllis ? nick : it 's not exactly her area of expertise . jack : then she thought it was a good idea . good for her . i do n't think `` red `` would steer you wrong , nick . phyllis : thank you . hello , patty . patty : is it time for my medication ? phyllis : ( sighs ) you called my husband . patty : no . phyllis : yes , you called my husband . you called him . the nurse said it was important . you had something to tell him . so tell me . patty : ( sighs ) i - i , um , i had the nurse call diane 's husband . phyllis : i ca n't believe you 're still playing this game after i warned you . patty : okay , it 's my turn to hand out warnings . nicholas needs to know that diane is trying to steal jack from me . phyllis : okay , enough . enough , enough , enough ! you know that nicholas is not married to diane , and you would n't even know my husband if you were still living in the past like your shrink says . patty : i know everything . it was you . you tried to seduce jack . i saw you . i saw you two having sex . cane : oh , he took off . uh , he may be heading back to australia . lily : i thought he was sticking around . what about his family ? cane : hopefully , he 'll be back . lily : hmm . oh . well , we should be hearing from mac any minute now . cane : mm . so ... lily : ( chuckles ) cane : what would you like to do to take your mind off all of this , huh ? lily : mm . cane : would you like to watch a movie ? lily : uh , do we have `` three men and a baby `` ? cane : no . lily : ( chuckles ) cane : we have `` rosemary 's baby . `` lily : ( laughs ) cane : ( chuckles ) lily : you 're funny . okay , well , you know what ? i have a better idea . how about i research car seats until it 's time to go to the hospital ? cane : okay . lily : okay ? cane : sure . lily : ( chuckles ) cane : ( sighs ) emily : have you considered what we talked about before ? mac : you have reservations about my going forward with the surrogacy . emily : yeah , strong reservations . mac : because i broke up with billy . emily : your desire to help lily and cane is commendable , but to sacrifice your happiness for thi -- mac : honestly -- honestly , the breakup would have happened either way . emily : have you thought about what it will be like carrying this baby for nine months and then putting it in its mother 's arms ? mac : that is exactly why i want to do this . i told you what my life was like before i came to genoa city . it was rough . and then meeting my bio dad , and being surrounded by a family that loves me , that i can count on -- it changed everything . and lily and cane are gon na love this baby , and they 're gon na give it a home and a family . emily : you could provide that yourself . why not with this child ? mac : because it would n't be mine . it would be lily and cane 's . emily : ( sighs ) mac : so you 're gon na let me do this ? emily : i need to put my notes in order , and , um , i 'll e - mail the results to the hospital later . billy : ( sighs ) kay : well ... ( chuckles ) you coming in or out ? billy : uh , there 's people in there i do n't need to see right now . kay : oh , well , you 're gon na let those people chase you away ? you 're certainly not the billy abbott that i know . billy : ( chuckles ) well , here . kay : thank you . billy : i do n't want people eavesdropping on the bomb that i 'm about to drop . kay : oh , dear god , billy , what have you done now ? billy : it 's mac . kay : really ? billy : she 's got this crazy idea that she wants to carry lily and cane 's baby . kay : she wants to be a surrogate ? billy : yeah , i mean , she wants to have the shots and -- and -- and the implant , and then bing , bam , boom , spit out the kid and hand it right off . kay : a - are you telling me that -- that -- that lily and cane are planning a family and -- while she 's undergoing chemotherapy ? is that what you 're telling me ? billy : yeah . it 's crazy , huh ? uh , lily has this big scare , and -- and she just gets out of the hospital , and now she and mac are gon na knit bootees ? kay : well , i will assume that you 've talked to mac about this . billy : i talked to her . i 've talked to her . but she does n't understand how bad of an idea this is , okay ? i mean , she 's going to come to family dinners , and there 's gon na be lily and cane feeding split peas to this kid that she carried . kay : that 's her altruistic streak , billy . billy : no , there 's nothing wrong with -- nothing , nothing wrong with warm and fuzzy , okay ? but she has no idea what this is gon na do to her day in and day out , week in , week out . kay : she 's capable . she is so capable of great sacrifice . you know that . billy : grandma , nobody is doubting how big she loves . she loves deeper and better than anybody i know , okay ? but if lily and cane , they want to get a surrogate , that 's fine . go for it . but they need to get somebody who 's not connected to them . kay : wait a minute . wait a minute . now that -- that 's why she was crying the other night . i mean , the two of you had a falling - out ? billy : yeah , we had a falling - out . kay : i see . so now you would like grandmother to plead your case to her , hmm ? billy : it 's not about pleading my case . somebody , someone she trusts , needs to talk some sense into her before she makes a mistake that she ca n't undo . kay : mistake for whom , billy ? billy : ( scoffs ) ahh , well . you know , i thought you 'd see it my way . but , um ... chance : `` if a man offers to buy you a drink , and you 're not interested in him , do you say , ' no thank you , ' or do you take the free drink and give him a bogus number ? `` chloe : why ? chance : well , this is a test for `` damsel or vixen . `` chloe : oh , well , i am definitely not a `` damsel . `` did you see the way that your mom reacted ? she wanted to rip off my head when she came in here . so , yeah , i 'd say not `` damselesque . `` chance : you or my mom ? chloe : and look at the way that billy freaked out when he came in here . i mean , i think our being together just annoys the world . chance : ( sighs ) is that what you 're trying to do ? you trying to annoy billy ? chloe : no . is that what you 're doing ? chance : chloe , i -- chloe : trying to blow off your mom ? chance : no . i do n't give a damn about what anyone else thinks , all right ? whether they 're pro or con . chloe : okay . chance : okay . chloe : well , then you pass your test with flying colors . chance : ahh . this was your test , though . chloe : ( gasps ) it was my test ? chance : it was your test . chloe : oh . nina : perfect timing . i was just gon na call you . phillip : why ? is there something wrong with chance ? nina : no . no , he 's fine . he ca n't wait to get out of that bed . i may have to sit on him to keep him there . phillip : uh , yeah , i 'd like to see that . nina : ( chuckles ) phillip : ( chuckles ) nina : i thought when he 's up and about that i would plan a dinner at the athletic club , something family - ish and positive . phillip : `` positive `` ? nina : uh , something that katherine said -- she said i should enjoy my family while they 're together , so that 's what i 'm doing . phillip : i ca n't . i wo n't be able to make it . nina : i have n't even set the date yet . phillip : i 've got ta get back to australia tonight . nina : you ca n't be serious . how could you do this to our son ? he just got out of the hospital . you promised you would stick around ! phillip : nina , i 'm sorry , but there 's unfinished business back home . nina : `` home . `` oh , you call that `` home . `` your son and your family are here . you know , i learned a long time ago how to live without you . but damn you for coming back just so -- just so chance could lose his father again . chance : delia and i are just going downstairs . it 's not like we 're going on recon for a week . chloe : no . i just want you to have everything within reach . have you seen that child crawl lately ? i mean , she 's all over the place . it 's like she wants everything at once . chance : where are you going , by the way ? chloe : well , i wanted to get you a treat , 'cause i heard that someone just loves the fruit tarts over at crimson lights . chance : ( groans ) chloe : oh . oh , crap . crap , that 's my bad . that 's where you got stabbed . i - i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to cause , like , post - traumatic stress or anything . chance : no , it 's -- it 's fine . okay ? it 's just a gut reaction . look , i just would hate if something were to happen to you , and i - it just makes me want to go with you . chloe : that is very sweet . but believe me , i 'll be okay , and i will come back in one piece . kay : oh , hi , darling . have a seat . mac : okay . kay : uh , tea ? mac : no , i got ta -- i got ta head out soon . i got a big day . kay : well , that 's what , uh , i would like to talk to you about . ( clears throat ) mackenzie , i understand that , uh , you 're going to carry a - a baby for lily and cane . mac : who told you ? kay : well , i -- does it matter ? i think i 'm capable of deciding about this kind of gift . mac : you think it 's a gift , too ? kay : ( chuckles ) it 's the truest act of kindness i can imagine . mac : well , if everything goes well today , i start my hormone shots soon , and i could be pregnant in a couple weeks . kay : well , you ca n't imagine what it 's like to carry a child until you actually do it . when i was pregnant -- uh , not with your father , but it was another time -- knowing that i was going to give that child up , i - i could n't help but fall in love with that child . mac : well , this is different , because i 'm a gestational surrogate . it 's not my child . i 'm just carrying it . kay : mm - hmm . mm - hmm , mm - hmm . but having to give up that child was far worse than i expected . i never forgot her , even after all these years . and , mackenzie , i still feel that loss today . mac : are you trying to talk me out of this ? kay : no . no , darling , it 's your decision . i simply do n't want you to underestimate the impact it 's going to have on you , if you go through with it . ( cell phone beeps ) mac : my evaluation is done . i got ta go . nick : so you really think buying up chancellor stock will help reunite your family ? jack , you could blow every penny , and it might not happen . jack : it 's worth the risk if there 's a chance we can bring us all back together . nick : well , i 'd hate to see you disappointed after everything you 've been through . i know you 've lost so much . jack : you 're right . but you know what ? it is n't just billy and ashley that i lost . there was a time i thought of you and phyllis as my extended family . i think you know i love your children as if they were my own . losing `` restless style `` was bad enough . the fact that i lost our friendship -- well , i 'm hoping one day , we can rebuild that . nick : well , you have to admit , this is interesting timing . jack : why ? because you stepped up at newman ? nick , you 're doing well enough here . you do n't need me blowing smoke . i offered you a business deal . it 's your decision . one thing i do n't question -- you will make that decision with integrity . i 've said this before -- you 're not the man your father is . you 're one of the good guys . you 're someone people can count on . i just hope the day comes soon that you can count on me , too . patty : ahh . all gone . ( sighs ) ( door closes ) phyllis : your time travel games are n't working on me . they 're not . you know i 'm not diane . you know i 'm phyllis . patty : i do n't know anyone named phyllis . i know a diane . that witch tried to take jack from me , and that 's why she had to be punished . and that 's why i had no choice with the baby . thank you .

yeah , that 's what i thought . i 'm not doing business with this guy . okay , i 'll talk to you later . hey , jack . i still do n't have an answer for you yet . jack : take all the time you need . i thought i would drop by a few figures on how this stock deal could play out . even if chancellor 's initial public offering tanks -- and i 'm not saying it will . i 'm saying anything 's possible -- newman will enjoy tax write - offs without investing a dime . nick : and the catch ? jack : there is no catch . nick , i told you what i 'm after . i want my family to have a strong influence in jabot . i would think you of all people would understand that , just as i understand the high you get sitting at that desk running newman . both of us were born and bred to run our family businesses . nick : ( sighs ) jack , i ca n't just make this decision on a whim . jack : sure . i think you 'll find it plays out to your advantage . take your time . have you run any of this by phyllis ? nick : it 's not exactly her area of expertise . jack : then she thought it was a good idea . good for her . i do n't think `` red `` would steer you wrong , nick . phyllis : thank you . hello , patty . patty : is it time for my medication ?

mac : you have reservations about my going forward with the surrogacy . emily : yeah , strong reservations . mac : because i broke up with billy . emily : your desire to help lily and cane is commendable , but to sacrifice your happiness for thi -- mac : honestly -- honestly , the breakup would have happened either way . emily : have you thought about what it will be like carrying this baby for nine months and then putting it in its mother 's arms ? mac : that is exactly why i want to do this . i told you what my life was like before i came to genoa city . it was rough . and then meeting my bio dad , and being surrounded by a family that loves me , that i can count on -- it changed everything . and lily and cane are gon na love this baby , and they 're gon na give it a home and a family . emily : you could provide that yourself . why not with this child ? mac : because it would n't be mine . it would be lily and cane 's . emily : ( sighs ) mac : so you 're gon na let me do this ? emily : i need to put my notes in order , and , um , i 'll e - mail the results to the hospital later . billy : ( sighs ) kay : well ...

billy : it 's mac . kay : really ? billy : she 's got this crazy idea that she wants to carry lily and cane 's baby . kay : she wants to be a surrogate ? billy : yeah , i mean , she wants to have the shots and -- and -- and the implant , and then bing , bam , boom , spit out the kid and hand it right off . kay : a - are you telling me that -- that -- that lily and cane are planning a family and -- while she 's undergoing chemotherapy ? is that what you 're telling me ? billy : yeah . it 's crazy , huh ? uh , lily has this big scare , and -- and she just gets out of the hospital , and now she and mac are gon na knit bootees ? kay : well , i will assume that you 've talked to mac about this . billy : i talked to her . i 've talked to her . but she does n't understand how bad of an idea this is , okay ? i mean , she 's going to come to family dinners , and there 's gon na be lily and cane feeding split peas to this kid that she carried . kay : that 's her altruistic streak , billy . billy : no , there 's nothing wrong with -- nothing , nothing wrong with warm and fuzzy , okay ? but she has no idea what this is gon na do to her day in and day out , week in , week out . kay : she 's capable . she is so capable of great sacrifice . you know that . billy : grandma , nobody is doubting how big she loves . she loves deeper and better than anybody i know , okay ? but if lily and cane , they want to get a surrogate , that 's fine . go for it . but they need to get somebody who 's not connected to them . kay : wait a minute . wait a minute . now that -- that 's why she was crying the other night . i mean , the two of you had a falling - out ? billy : yeah , we had a falling - out . kay : i see . so now you would like grandmother to plead your case to her , hmm ? billy : it 's not about pleading my case . somebody , someone she trusts , needs to talk some sense into her before she makes a mistake that she ca n't undo . kay : mistake for whom , billy ? billy : ( scoffs ) ahh , well . you know , i thought you 'd see it my way . but , um ... chance : `` if a man offers to buy you a drink , and you 're not interested in him , do you say , ' no thank you , ' or do you take the free drink and give him a bogus number ?

( sighs ) we were so lucky to find a cash buyer for that place . ridge : look , dad , about that buyer -- eric : look , now we just have to concentrate on selling the big bear cabin . damn it . i hate having to get rid of that place . we 've all loved it so much , and you kids have spent so much time up there . i had hoped that we would be able to keep it in the family for generations to come . ridge : well , like i said , we ca n't afford to be too sentimental right now . eric : no , you 're right . you 're right . you 're right . it has to be done . ridge : look , we 'll buy it back once this new line 's a hit and we -- we get back on top again . eric : that 's right . we 'll work around the clock if we have to . we 're gon na win this battle , ridge . we 're gon na win it . we 're gon na win it the forrester way -- with diligence and with talent . nobody 's gon na get their hands on this company -- not the bank , and certainly not bill spencer .
