[ sighs ] i mean , what -- what was i supposed to do ? i could n't let either one of them die . dario : if both only got half a dose , what if ... if neither one of them wakes up ? and now , i help people find discounts , joey : good . so who called ? reporter . wanted me to make a statement about my dad . joey : really ? how 'd he get your number ? jade : who knows ? you know , what my dad did was really messed up . i ca n't just sell his story to some gossip site . i do n't care how much money they offer me , and i ca n't even pay my own rent here , but , i just , i ca n't . joey : do n't worry about the rent . okay ? my parents are cool with it . jade : i do worry . i have nothing . i 'm alone . joey : you 're not alone . you 've got five people living here . i 'm definitely gon na take care of you . jade : will you ? you 're the best , joey . tripp : you 're my ... dad ? steve : i might be . it 's a definite possibility . tripp : i 've been looking to find my -- seriously ? steve : seriously . look , can we , uh , sit down ? talk about it ? tripp : uh , i do n't know , man . we better go . charlie is calling the cops . we 'll wind up in cuffs . steve : do n't worry about him . i 'll handle it . i 'm steve johnson , by the way . tripp : steve johnson . steve : my wife kayla . tripp : hi , kayla . tripp dalton . kayla : nice to meet you . tripp : so are you ... kayla : no , no , no , no . i 'm -- i 'm not your mother . i 'm steve 's wife . tripp : this is , uh ... [ laughs ] steve : it 's a lot to take in , right ? tripp : yeah . i 've actually been on , like , this quest . you know ? trying to tack down my birth parents . steve . i know . kayla and i did n't just show up out of nowhere . you remember raymond ? the guy you contacted about your adoption ? he 's the one who put me on to you . tripp : he told me he had no idea where i should look . steve : he wanted to talk to me first . kayla : and just so you know , steve did n't even know that you existed , until just a little over a year ago . steve : and when i found out , i did try to find you . at that time raymond had some records that said you 'd died as a baby . but then when you reached out to him , he saw your adoption papers , he realized he 'd made a mistake . that 's when he told me i could find you in arizona . tripp : i -- i ca n't believe this . are you sure ? kayla : well , it 's not a certainly . we really need a dna test to know for sure . tripp : i -- i came here trying to get my last paycheck , and i found ... so if kayla 's not my mom , then who is ? and where is she ? jj : deimos kiriakis thinks he can do any damn thing he wants . anytime . paul : she looks so vulnerable . jj : she 's tougher than people think . sometimes . i 've got ta file a police report . paul : uh , if deimos made his usual moves , there wo n't be a shred of evidence he was involved . jj : i know . got ta do it anyway .

'cause i decided to split the antidote . dario : look , if i were you , i probably would have done the same thing . either one of them . chad : sorry . i need a minute . dario : i wish you knew . i wish you knew how much i care . you got ta get through this . you 've got to . 'cause i -- look , i 'm in love with you . abigail : [ sighs ] chad ? [ sighs ] dario ? dario : you do n't know how happy you just made me . deimos : i 'm guessing you think i did something wrong . sonny : do n't even start with me . i know you poisoned abigail and gabi ! deimos : sounds like i had a busy night . sonny : they 're in the hospital right now . they are fighting for their lives ! and that 's all because of you . deimos : right . right . because i 'm evil incarnate . you know what ? i 've got better things to do than listen to this . sonny : no ! you know what ? you 're not walking away from this . you 've gone way too far . i want you to look me in the face right now . i promise you , you will not be leading this family . you do n't think i can make it happen ? just watch me . abigail : did you say ... i made you happy ? dario : [ laughs ] you 're awake !

'cause i decided to split the antidote . dario : look , if i were you , i probably would have done the same thing . either one of them . chad : sorry . i need a minute . dario : i wish you knew . i wish you knew how much i care . you got ta get through this . you 've got to . 'cause i -- look , i 'm in love with you . abigail : [ sighs ] chad ?

[ sniffs ] and over and over again . and i think as we grew ... we grew closer . even the times that i thought that we were at a crossroads and we were gon na separate , we stuck it out , and -- and even that made us closer . but the thing that hurts now is that we were really sure that we were on the right track this time . we were finally even talking about having a family . [ sighs ] [ whispers ] i love you . i always have , and i always will . will : so one day i 'd come in here and she 'd be talking to some guy in like a suit about the bears ' defense . and then , uh , another day i 'd come in , and she 's talking to some pierced girl about grunge bands . i 'm like , `` how does she know what grunge bands are ? she 's supposed to be too old for that . `` anyway ... [ quiet laughter ] will : and also i was like , `` how does she , you know , how does she have so many friends ? `` uh ... [ sniffles ] but she did . and i 've been thinking a lot about that , and i think it 's because she 's always -- my grandmother 's always trying to , um , you know , figure out who you really are . and she never tells you who you should be . i think that 's why i , you know , i told her things i 've never told anyone else and , uh , i think that 's why i 'm gon na miss her for the rest of my life . brady : my dad was a ... was a role model to so many . not like the man did n't make mistakes . he -- he made many mistakes . we all do . i know i - i have . it 's the way in which he handled them . he owned them , he ... he took responsibility for his mistakes . and not a lot of people do that . hardly anybody does that anymore . and he always tried to do what was right . always . i wish i had a little bit of -- more of that in me . but now that he 's gone , i 'm gon na try to live my life in a way in which he would be very proud of . so , uh , from now on i 'm a cubs fan . [ laughter ] brady : i 'll miss you , dad . sami : it 's no secret that , um , things were ... difficult between me and my mom . i never made it easy for her . i never made it easy for her to love me , but she did . because that 's the kind of person she was . she , um , she let me know that no matter what , she would always have her arms open and ... ready for me . anyway ... i just , um ...

wyatt : i mean , you do regret kissing brooke , right ? [ scoffs ] it 's a simple yes or no , dad . bill : no , wyatt . want me to punch you ? it 's not a simple yes or no . brooke and i happen to have a long history , and there 's a lot of emotion there , and ... [ sighs ] when brooke needs me , my instinct is to be there for her , and i was . and , no , i do n't regret that . but , yes , i -- i do regret the kiss , and i regret that it hurt katie . but i do n't wan na be back with brooke . i love katie , and i love our life together . wyatt : i guess what i 'm wondering is what do you do with the regret . where do you put it ? 'cause , like , i have a lot when it comes to sally , and it 's not because of her dying . it 's - it 's -- it 's because of the way i treated her when i knew i was in love with flo . bill : well , maybe you did n't , wyatt . denial is a powerful thing . and you did love sally , too . wyatt : i did . i do . i - i do . it 's just -- it 's hard to believe that time is running out for her . bill : look , whenever it is that sally 's gone , i hope you find comfort in knowing that you did all you could do for her and that you and flo can move into your future together and take every bit of joy and happiness that life has to offer . sally : no . no , no , no , no , no ! dr. escobar : i ca n't believe i hit her . she was about to call wyatt . she was -- oh , my gosh . she was gon na tell him that you 're not dying . she threatened to call in the cops . sally : so hitting her over the head with a candlestick was your best solution ? dr. escobar : i do n't know what came over me . i just -- i wanted to stop her . i did n't wan na hurt her . she 's not dead , is she ? sally : i do n't know . you 're the damn doctor . get over here and check her . oh , come on , flo . please , god . please , please let her be okay . katie : i can put you down for 2 : 00 , but it only has to be 15 minutes because i 've got a 2 : 30 . okay . all right . i will see you then . thank you . donna : hey . katie : hey . donna : throwing yourself into work . katie : well , it 's better than sitting at home feeling sorry for myself . donna : how are you holding up ? katie : i 'm ... okay . i have to be okay for my son . has he noticed that his parents are n't living together ? katie : not yet . but he 's gon na figure it out . he 's smart . he 's intuitive , sensitive . donna : so , um , have you reached out to bill ? katie : no . donna : no . are you -- were you going to ? katie : not right away . [ sighs ] listen . i still love him . of course i do . i ca n't just magically turn off my feelings . i wish i could . i wish i could just forget how hurt i felt when i saw bill kissing brooke , but ... i can't . bill : [ sighs ] have the doctors said how much time sally has left ? wyatt : [ sighs ] yeah . um , she 's already proven them wrong . doctors gave her only about a month , and ... i mean , she 's already surpassed that . bill : well , that woman 's a fighter . even i learned not to underestimate her . wyatt : unfortunately , this is a battle that sally ca n't ultimately win . i mean ... i mean , we 're gon na lose her . it 's just -- it 's only a matter of time . bill : and when that time comes , wyatt , i 'll be here for you , and so will flo . wyatt : thanks , dad . i am grateful for that . you know , i thought -- i thought flo was lost to me , but ... i mean , here we are , defying the odds . and we 're just gon na grab ahold of our future and ride it for all it 's worth . sally : [ exhales ] you 're not saying anything . dr. escobar : i 'm checking her . sally : is she alive ? dr. escobar : she has a pulse . sally : oh , thank god . thank god . dr. escobar : but considering the blow to the head , flo can have a serious head injury -- a concussion at the very least . sally : ohh ! flo . flo , i am so sorry . i 'm so sorry . i never meant for any of this to happen . i never thought a doctor , of all people , was gon na crack you over the head with a candlestick , you idiot . but you were gon na tell wyatt , and she was afraid of that , and we -- ohh -- we ca n't have that happen , and we still can't . dr. escobar : what does that mean ? sally : just means that wyatt still lives here , and eventually he 's gon na come home . and you know what he ca n't find ? her . katie : there 's really no way for me to exaggerate how shocked i was . this was one of the most humiliating moments of my life , and it was caused by my sister and the man i 'm in love with . donna : and quinn . let 's not forget about her part in all this . katie : quinn is vicious . that 's true . but all she did was upload that video . and all shauna did was record it . the blame lies with bill and brooke . and you know what ? if -- [ sighs ] if i keep thinking about it , i 'm gon na get all upset all over again . so i 'm just -- i 'm just focusing on my son . that 's it . donna : okay . that - that 's a good plan for now , okay ? and it 'll take you through the hurt until you can get to a place of forgiveness . katie : well , that might be a very long journey . donna : it 's okay . it takes as long as it takes . just -- [ sighs ] just do n't close your heart , okay ? i really believe that bill is sorry . katie : i believe that , too . i know he 's sorry . i know brooke is sorry . they 've been sorry before for this very same reason , because they 're incapable of keeping their hands and their lips off of each other . donna : [ sighs ] they swear that this moment is never gon na happen again . katie : i know . i know . they 've said that before , too . listen . brooke is my sister . i love her , and we will work through this and come out on the other side of it because that 's just the way things are with us . but bill ... donna : what about him ? katie : i just do n't know if i can ever trust him again . watt : you know , you 've been doing that a lot . bill : yeah , i know , wyatt . i 'm hoping there 's a text from katie . wyatt : you know , i 'm not surprised that katie does n't wan na talk to you . bill : wow . thanks for the support . wyatt : i 'm not trying to bust your chops . bill : well , you could 've fooled me . wyatt : i 'm just saying , how do you think kissing brooke was gon na go over ? bill : well , clearly , wyatt , i was n't thinking , was i ? wyatt : i just -- all i 'm saying is i do n't understand how you could hurt katie like that . bill : she was n't supposed to know , wyatt . wyatt : what ? bill : yeah , that 's not an excuse , all right ? there is no excuse . but the moment that kiss ended , brooke and i knew that that was it . it was n't going anywhere . it was just a moment . right ? a moment that was never gon na happen again . so what would be the point of hurting our significant others , making some kind of dramatic confession for no reason ? it seemed like the right thing at the time . little did we know that shauna and that witch of a mother of yours were already all over it . wyatt : hey . okay . fine . i 'm sorry , all right ? i know how much you hate being away from katie and will . bill : well , i owe katie the space that she needs . it 's the least i can do . wyatt : will does n't know anything ? bill : no , he does n't know anything , and i 'm hoping that katie and i can get this worked out before he realizes that something 's wrong . i 'll tell you one thing . this has certainly given me perspective . now , you say that flo is the love of your life , right ? wyatt : yeah . she is . bill : well , then be vigilant , wyatt , and protect that love with everything you 've got . wyatt : i 'm sorry . are you supporting flo and me ? bill : what are you talking about ? i 've been supportive of you and flo . yeah . flo and i , we did n't get off on the right foot for obvious reasons , but she has stepped up in some remarkable ways . so i 've got to give her some credit . you guys -- it 's been incredible the way that you 've been there for sally . i -- i 'm so impressed , wyatt . you wan na know how to not have any regrets ? wyatt : hmm . bill : if you love flo , protect her and protect your future together . wyatt : it 's -- it 's great advice . i 'll take it . dr. escobar : we need to call 911 . she needs medical attention . sally : then give her some , doctor . oh , my god . look , okay , i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry , all right ?

[ scoffs ] it 's a simple yes or no , dad . bill : no , wyatt . want me to punch you ? it 's not a simple yes or no . brooke and i happen to have a long history , and there 's a lot of emotion there , and ... [ sighs ] when brooke needs me , my instinct is to be there for her , and i was . and , no , i do n't regret that . but , yes , i -- i do regret the kiss , and i regret that it hurt katie . but i do n't wan na be back with brooke . i love katie , and i love our life together . wyatt : i guess what i 'm wondering is what do you do with the regret . where do you put it ? 'cause , like , i have a lot when it comes to sally , and it 's not because of her dying . it 's - it 's -- it 's because of the way i treated her when i knew i was in love with flo . bill : well , maybe you did n't , wyatt . denial is a powerful thing . and you did love sally , too . wyatt : i did . i do . i - i do . it 's just -- it 's hard to believe that time is running out for her . bill : look , whenever it is that sally 's gone , i hope you find comfort in knowing that you did all you could do for her and that you and flo can move into your future together and take every bit of joy and happiness that life has to offer . sally : no . no , no , no , no , no ! dr. escobar : i ca n't believe i hit her . she was about to call wyatt . she was -- oh , my gosh . she was gon na tell him that you 're not dying . she threatened to call in the cops . sally : so hitting her over the head with a candlestick was your best solution ? dr. escobar : i do n't know what came over me . i just -- i wanted to stop her . i did n't wan na hurt her . she 's not dead , is she ? sally : i do n't know . you 're the damn doctor . get over here and check her . oh , come on , flo . please , god . please , please let her be okay . katie : i can put you down for 2 : 00 , but it only has to be 15 minutes because i 've got a 2 : 30 . okay . all right . i will see you then . thank you . donna : hey . katie : hey . donna : throwing yourself into work . katie : well , it 's better than sitting at home feeling sorry for myself . donna : how are you holding up ? katie : i 'm ... okay . i have to be okay for my son . has he noticed that his parents are n't living together ? katie : not yet . but he 's gon na figure it out . he 's smart . he 's intuitive , sensitive . donna : so , um , have you reached out to bill ? katie : no . donna : no . are you -- were you going to ? katie : not right away . [ sighs ] listen . i still love him . of course i do . i ca n't just magically turn off my feelings . i wish i could . i wish i could just forget how hurt i felt when i saw bill kissing brooke , but ... i can't . bill : [ sighs ] have the doctors said how much time sally has left ? wyatt : [ sighs ] yeah . um , she 's already proven them wrong . doctors gave her only about a month , and ... i mean , she 's already surpassed that . bill : well , that woman 's a fighter . even i learned not to underestimate her . wyatt : unfortunately , this is a battle that sally ca n't ultimately win . i mean ... i mean , we 're gon na lose her . it 's just -- it 's only a matter of time . bill : and when that time comes , wyatt , i 'll be here for you , and so will flo . wyatt : thanks , dad . i am grateful for that . you know , i thought -- i thought flo was lost to me , but ... i mean , here we are , defying the odds . and we 're just gon na grab ahold of our future and ride it for all it 's worth . sally : [ exhales ] you 're not saying anything . dr. escobar : i 'm checking her . sally : is she alive ? dr. escobar : she has a pulse . sally : oh , thank god . thank god . dr. escobar : but considering the blow to the head , flo can have a serious head injury -- a concussion at the very least . sally : ohh ! flo . flo , i am so sorry . i 'm so sorry . i never meant for any of this to happen . i never thought a doctor , of all people , was gon na crack you over the head with a candlestick , you idiot . but you were gon na tell wyatt , and she was afraid of that , and we -- ohh -- we ca n't have that happen , and we still can't . dr. escobar : what does that mean ? sally : just means that wyatt still lives here , and eventually he 's gon na come home . and you know what he ca n't find ? her . katie : there 's really no way for me to exaggerate how shocked i was . this was one of the most humiliating moments of my life , and it was caused by my sister and the man i 'm in love with . donna : and quinn . let 's not forget about her part in all this . katie : quinn is vicious . that 's true . but all she did was upload that video . and all shauna did was record it . the blame lies with bill and brooke . and you know what ? if -- [ sighs ] if i keep thinking about it , i 'm gon na get all upset all over again . so i 'm just -- i 'm just focusing on my son . that 's it . donna : okay . that - that 's a good plan for now , okay ? and it 'll take you through the hurt until you can get to a place of forgiveness . katie : well , that might be a very long journey . donna : it 's okay . it takes as long as it takes . just -- [ sighs ] just do n't close your heart , okay ? i really believe that bill is sorry . katie : i believe that , too . i know he 's sorry . i know brooke is sorry . they 've been sorry before for this very same reason , because they 're incapable of keeping their hands and their lips off of each other . donna : [ sighs ] they swear that this moment is never gon na happen again . katie : i know . i know . they 've said that before , too . listen . brooke is my sister . i love her , and we will work through this and come out on the other side of it because that 's just the way things are with us . but bill ... donna : what about him ? katie : i just do n't know if i can ever trust him again . watt : you know , you 've been doing that a lot . bill : yeah , i know , wyatt . i 'm hoping there 's a text from katie . wyatt : you know , i 'm not surprised that katie does n't wan na talk to you . bill : wow . thanks for the support . wyatt : i 'm not trying to bust your chops . bill : well , you could 've fooled me . wyatt : i 'm just saying , how do you think kissing brooke was gon na go over ? bill : well , clearly , wyatt , i was n't thinking , was i ? wyatt : i just -- all i 'm saying is i do n't understand how you could hurt katie like that . bill : she was n't supposed to know , wyatt . wyatt : what ? bill : yeah , that 's not an excuse , all right ? there is no excuse . but the moment that kiss ended , brooke and i knew that that was it . it was n't going anywhere . it was just a moment . right ? a moment that was never gon na happen again . so what would be the point of hurting our significant others , making some kind of dramatic confession for no reason ? it seemed like the right thing at the time . little did we know that shauna and that witch of a mother of yours were already all over it . wyatt : hey . okay . fine . i 'm sorry , all right ? i know how much you hate being away from katie and will . bill : well , i owe katie the space that she needs . it 's the least i can do . wyatt : will does n't know anything ? bill : no , he does n't know anything , and i 'm hoping that katie and i can get this worked out before he realizes that something 's wrong . i 'll tell you one thing . this has certainly given me perspective . now , you say that flo is the love of your life , right ? wyatt : yeah . she is . bill : well , then be vigilant , wyatt , and protect that love with everything you 've got . wyatt : i 'm sorry . are you supporting flo and me ? bill : what are you talking about ? i 've been supportive of you and flo . yeah . flo and i , we did n't get off on the right foot for obvious reasons , but she has stepped up in some remarkable ways . so i 've got to give her some credit . you guys -- it 's been incredible the way that you 've been there for sally . i -- i 'm so impressed , wyatt . you wan na know how to not have any regrets ? wyatt : hmm . bill : if you love flo , protect her and protect your future together . wyatt : it 's -- it 's great advice . i 'll take it . dr. escobar : we need to call 911 . she needs medical attention . sally : then give her some , doctor . oh , my god . look , okay , i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry , all right ? i know you feel guilty for everything that you 've done , and now this , but we ca n't call anyone , okay ? because there 's no way that we can explain any of this without both of us losing everything . whether you like it or not , we 're both in on this together . dr. escobar : why did i ever let you talk me into this insane plan ?

come on . this is a lot more than rumor . this is the stuff of legend , stephanie . we are talking about a modern - day cleopatra , who has already got the roman emperor julius caesar lying at her feet . but she is not content . she wants more . now , the only question is who is going to be her marc anthony . stephanie : well , i can tell you who 's not going to be -- eric . sally : well , of course not . whoever said he was ? stephanie : that 's what massimo implied by calling here . sally : that 's ridiculous . ridiculous . with all the resources massimo has at his command , i 'm sure he 's uncovered who the real culprit is by now . and all i can say about that is , whoever the man is , god help him . nick : no . you 're a notary , too ? is there anything that you do n't do ? well buddy , there 's no getting rid of me now . i 'm officially a marone ! massimo : hear , hear ! nick : all right , the main event . ladies ? come here . whoa , you 're so fast ! do you know what 's going to happen when your daddy signs on that paper right there ?

victor : there are some things you do n't know about adam and what happened to him . things that need to be said . some people think that he and i were enemies . and in some ways , that is true . and i think it was mostly due to the fact that he was very much like me -- full of ambition , drive , sometimes ruthlessness . but he had a big heart when it came to his family . he 'd do anything to fight for you and for connor . in that , he was like me . some people believe in destiny . i do n't , really . life has taught me to write my own story . a man writes his own story , really , based on his experiences . and someone like me and someone like adam , we believe that we determined our future , the course of our life . i believed in that . until this happened . until his life was cut short . i had such plans for you , for your boy , for adam . i wanted you to be happy . with all my resources , all my money , all my planning , all my scheming to give you and adam and your boy a happy life . fate stepped in , cut short his life . and i was n't there when it counted most . if you all wonder who 's to blame for adam 's death ... you 're looking at him . victor : i wanted to control adam 's life . i wanted to make sure that all the pieces fit perfectly and that he would then become a part of the newman family . kevin : sorry . victor : and the newman family business . kevin : i think victor 's about to confess . victor : that 's the tragedy of this . my attempt to control , my attempt to make sure that he did things on my timetable , not his . that 's the mistake i made . i should have been patient . instead -- nikki : victor . do n't do this . victor : no . i was too late . jack : victor . if adam were here right now , do you know what he would say ? `` i understand and i forgive you . `` i believe that because i 've had to accept the same hard - learned lesson as you . we ca n't control the people we love . in fact , the more we love them , the more we have to be willing to let them go . billy : you realize this is the first time we 've been together since jill caught onto us . phyllis : the hell with jill . the hell with her . you 're here , i 'm here . that 's all that matters . victor : i appreciate your words , but the stark truth is that adam would be alive -- jack : if you were n't you , if adam were n't adam , if somehow the stars were aligned differently that night ? victor , what happened at that cabin was an accident . a terrible , tragic accident . no one can bring your son back . no one can make up for those lost opportunities . but i want to comment on something you said earlier . a man does write his own story . adam would be the first to tell you that it 's not too late for you , or anyone else he loved , to write their own . whatever happens tomorrow , whatever mistakes we make , and we are bound to make our share , today 's about adam . you lost a son , and i 'm terribly sorry . i will miss him a great deal . victor : thank you . chelsea : i think i want to say something . nick : are you sure ? chelsea : yeah . connor deserves to know how important his father was to the people in this room , all the people that loved him , flaws and all , and i was one of those people . nick : okay . i mean , nobody expects you to if you 're not okay -- chelsea : adam would . adam would expect me to , and he 'd be right . i owe that to him and to my son . [ sighs ] i 'm gon na tell you about the best man i 've ever known . i 'm gon na tell you about your dad . the first thing i need you to know , maybe the only thing i need you to know is that we 're gon na be okay . it 's gon na be you and me against the world , and there is no one else i would rather have on my team , okay ? [ sighs ] but i 'm really gon na miss your dad . and you 're gon na miss him , too . and i want you to know that it 's okay if you 're sad or angry or frustrated because i 'm feeling those things right now , too . i really am . it 's never easy to lose somebody that you love . especially somebody as amazing as your dad . he was n't perfect , and he made his fair share of mistakes , but he loved us with his whole heart . we were his heart . and he 's ours . [ sniffles ] and he 's gon na be smiling down on you all the time . and he 's gon na be telling you to keep going when you think you ca n't keep going . he 's gon na be teaching you to be kind and to be respectful and to find the joys in life wherever you can because it 's the only life we got , right ? so daddy wants us to live it to the fullest , and that 's what we 're gon na do . daddy fought so hard to be with us , he did . he kept coming back for us . he kept coming back . [ sighs ] and it would have been easier for him to just disappear , but no , he faced the consequences and he earned forgiveness and he picked up the pieces . it did n't happen overnight , and a lot of people did n't think that he could change . [ sighs ] but he proved himself . there was one person in particular he always wanted to prove himself to , and that was your grandpa . your grandpa 's made mistakes , too , but i want you to remember something , connor . when we needed him the most , your grandpa came through for us . i do n't want you to ever forget that because i never will . the last time we were all together , your daddy said some really beautiful things to you . he said that he 's always gon na be there for you , and he 's always gon na teach you all of life 's lessons . and i 'm so sorry that he 's not gon na be here to teach you those lessons . but i 'm gon na be here for those moments , those special moments , and all of the people in this room are gon na be here because they love you so much . and i just want you to remember that last day with daddy when he taught you how to fish . what did he say ? he said the trick was to , um ... [ sighs ] just to cast it out as high and as far as you can and to be brave , right ? is n't that what he said ? so that 's what we 're gon na do , okay ? we 're gon na be brave . just like daddy . i love you so much . hey , sweet boy . hi . billy : this feels good . it feels like genoa city with all its people and all its problems are far , far away . phyllis : yeah . sooner or late , though , we 're gon na have to go back . jack 's gon na wonder where i 've been , and he 's gon na want to tell me all about adam 's memorial . billy : i do n't want to think about any of that right now . i just want to focus on you . and this . especially these . phyllis : billy . we have to think about this . we have to make a choice . and there 's only one option that i see , now that jill knows . billy : do n't say that this is the last time . phyllis : i 'm not saying that . billy : what are you saying ? we should come forward and tell jack ? phyllis : i 'm saying that we have to live two lives -- one in public , for the whole world to see , and one in secret , just for us . nick : you should be so proud of your mommy , bud . i know your daddy would be . sharon : that was so brave . chelsea : thanks , sharon . sharon : i do n't know if i could have done that . nick : how you doing ? chelsea : not great . i 'm tired . actually , would you mind dropping us off ? nick : uh , yeah , sure . chelsea : thank you . nick : come on , bud . chelsea : [ sighs ] jack : nick . thank you for stepping up today for adam . given your history , i know that was n't easy . nick : well , could n't have been any easier , you reaching out to my dad . it means a lot , jack . more than you know . jack : like i said , today 's about adam . you have my phone number . any time you need anything . anywhere . call me . chelsea : thank you , jack . come on , baby . kevin : we should probably give chelsea and connor some time to get settled at home . michael : all right . you know what i 'm thinking ? maybe coffee , something sweet at crimson lights ? kevin : you read my mind . michael : excellent . sharon : sounds good . michael : all right , let 's go . chloe : you know what ? why do n't you go without me and save me a doughnut or something ? kevin : okay . michael : yeah , come on . chloe : so , what stopped you ? well , you were obviously going to confess what you did to adam , and then .... i mean , you did n't -- you 're clearly punishing yourself . there was an added bonus . you could have taken me down with you . victor : i would have taken down nikki , as well . and i ca n't do that . and as for you , everyone believes that you 're innocent . chloe : that 's because i am . victor : i really hope that 's the truth . chloe : well , it is . victor : because if it is n't , i promise you , you 'll wish you lived on another planet . jill : oh , victoria . victoria : [ sighs ] hi . jill : that was pretty rough , huh ? victoria : uh , yeah . i 've had better days . jill : yeah . bet it 's a relief that you 're gon na hop on a plane and go to seattle , though . victoria : actually , we 're really looking forward to it . jill : excuse me ? we ? victoria : oh , billy did n't tell you . well , he 's the one that suggested that we go together . jill : really ? [ chuckles ] why ? victoria : i do n't know . i mean , he said something about some other priority . you know billy . he 's always very vague . jill : mm . yes . i know billy . victoria : cane and i are capable of representing the company without him , i think . and with travis there , we 'll really be able to enjoy the city . there 's apparently this seafood restaurant that has the most amazing dungeness crab and wild salmon ... travis : and the best pinot noir in the pacific northwest . jill : crab and pinot noir . great . thank you . fine . victoria : yeah , it 's the perfect way to celebrate brash & sassy 's success , do n't you think ? jill : yes . yes , good luck . victoria : thank you . jill : good luck . damn . adam : i told you everything 'cause i wanted you to know the truth , jack . and what else ? jack , i wanted you to be happy that i was back . jack : okay . i 'll help you . adam : that 's a good choice . jack : under one condition . you look me in the eye and you swear to me the old adam is dead . all the old grudges , all the dissatisfaction , all the excuses , all the anger -- gone ! if you really feel remorse about delia 's death -- adam : of course i do , jack . jack : then be better . do better . be the man adam newman never had a chance to be . adam : i swear to you , jack . i swear . ashley : you 're really gon na miss him , are n't you , jack ? jack : you have no idea . ashley : jackie , where 's your wife ? i thought she 'd want to be here for you . jack : there is no way phyllis is gon na be here today . ashley : did you ask her to come ? not that you should have to . jack : by asking her , i would be telling her to set her feelings aside , to suppress the anger she feels for victor because it 's inconvenient for me . i have to learn my own lesson . otherwise , all those things i said to victor today -- just words . ashley : and what about you ? what about your feelings and your needs ? i would love it if phyllis , just for a second , could get past her own pain and put you first . billy : you , who 's afraid of nothing and no one , is proposing that we go on living a lie ? phyllis : it 's the only way we can stay together without hurting jack . billy : you think jack would prefer that ? phyllis , i love my brother . but i do n't think we 'd do him any favors by sneaking around . i think we got to come clean . just deal with it like adults . phyllis : i got my kids , you know ? i got summer . she should n't have to deal with any more heartache . your mother finds out , she 's gon na go for blood . billy : okay , your daughter is a very strong person . she 's gon na land on her feet like she always does . i mean , what 's the worst my mother 's gon na do -- she 's gon na fire me from brash & sassy ? that 's fine . we 'll start something bigger and better than anything else out there . phyllis : victoria ? billy : we 're over . phyllis : she still gets to you , and that 's all right . i can deal with that . but you get to her . she cares about you still , very much , billy . billy : so ? phyllis : so , if she finds out about us , she could go crazy . she could scream bloody murder , she could try to alter your custody with your children . i mean , are you ready to lose your kids over this ? billy : victoria would n't do that . phyllis : love makes people do crazy things , billy . just look at the two of us . travis : you must be spent . victoria : ca n't stop picturing my father 's face [ sighs ] when he talked about adam and ... poor chelsea . poor connor . [ sighs ] it feels like it 's all falling apart . travis : how can i help ? victoria : you could pack a bag while i talk to hannah about staying with the kids for a couple of days . you could join me on the flight to seattle . travis : hey , jill does n't want me to go . she 's your boss . i know how much brash & sassy means to you . i do n't want to do anything that might jeopardize your position . victoria : come on , look . jill is the one who created a problem by playing matchmaker . she should have listen to jack and what he said about giving up control . you know we 're proof that it works , right ? travis : we are ? victoria : yeah . look . i left you in mexico . i let you sail off . and you decided to come back . travis : to you . victoria : to me . travis : well , you 're making it awfully hard to say no . victoria : well , there 's a solution to that . just say yes . adam : chelsea lawson newman . will you please marry me again ? chelsea : yes . adam : yes ! yes ! yes ! see , that 's so great ! i mean , we have no , you know , bridesmaids , we have no guests , we have no maid of honor , we have no cake , we do n't have a deejay -- we got nothin ' . chelsea : you and me . that 's all we need . nick : connor insisted he did n't need a nap . chelsea : but then he was probably out before his head hit the pillow , right ? nick : [ sighs ] yeah . that 's how the little man works . i 'm learning . you know , you could follow connor 's lead . maybe go get some rest . chelsea : no . if i sleep , i 'll just dream . about adam and the life we were supposed to have , and then waking up will be like reliving this nightmare all over again . nick : well , you 're gon na have to sleep at some point . chelsea : not yet . nick : you know , chelsea , what you did today -- the way you kept it together , the way you -- the way you talked about connor 's dad ... chelsea : how could he leave us ? how could he leave us ? how could he leave us ? sharon : you , mariah , and i are going to have to hold down the fort for chelsea until she 's ready to get back to work . kevin : i ca n't believe how strong she was today . even victor came close to losing it , and that never happens . sharon : yeah , he was definitely off his game . kevin : do you think he was about to confess to framing adam ? michael : it 's the closest he 's come . kevin : why do you think he did n't ? chloe : you 're asking me , like i know ? kevin : no , i -- well , i saw you walk up to him as we were leaving . i wondered if he said anything . chloe : well , he did n't . i 'm , uh -- i 'm gon na get out of here . i should go check on bella . kevin : okay . i 'll go with you . chloe : no , it 's okay . i 'm good , thanks . i 'll talk to you tomorrow . bye . victor : sweetheart , if you do n't mind , i need some time by myself , okay ? nikki : i understand . this is where you feel closest to adam . victor : this is where we had some of our most bitter encounters . you know , i was hoping that , in time , we would get past all the animosity , work side by side as father and son . nikki : well , you still have a son . and two amazing daughters . and grandchildren who think that you personally hung the moon and the stars . victor : mm . nikki : not to mention a wife who adores you . so you hang on to that . see you later . victor : thank you , baby . thank you . jack : sis , i know you mean well , but phyllis is and has always been a complicated , passionate , and yes , at times , volatile woman . i would n't have it any other way . ashley : but do n't you -- jack : if she could n't be here today or would n't be here today , i 'm all right with that . as long as we 're honest with each other . ashley : okay . jack : okay . jill : it is just me , or does honesty seem to be a one - way street when it comes to jack and phyllis ? ashley : it 's not just you . it really annoys me . he 's always defending phyllis . saying how this whole thing is so much harder on her and how she 's entitled to her anger ... i get it . she is . what victor did to both of them was unconscionable , but does n't she need to get over it just a little bit , if not just for herself , but for jack ? her husband took a big hit today . jill : i know . he really thought of adam as his son . ashley : i know , and she should have been here for him . i understand that she hates victor , but i would love it if she would just love my brother more . sometimes i think that if it was billy -- jill : no , what about billy ? ashley : nothing . never mind . jill : no , no , no . i really want to know . ashley : jill , when it comes to billy , if he 's ever going through some kind of trouble or pain , phyllis has tons of sympathy for him . i would just like it if she shared that sympathy with my brother . that 's all . jill : yep . ashley : excuse me . billy : this whole thing has been insane since we started . phyllis : you think ? billy : and it 's gon na get even crazier if we start to compartmentalize all our feelings . phyllis : we can do it . billy : i do n't want to do that . i do n't want to find little dark corners with you . i want to have you all the time . all of you . phyllis : we do n't always get what we want . billy : but we can . we can have what we want . that 's the point . you just have to say yes . [ cell phone vibrates ] billy : it 's my mother . phyllis : surprise . billy : `` where are you ? call me . `` [ cell phone vibrates ] billy : do n't tell me she texted you , too . phyllis : no , it 's jack . `` sorry we fought . we need to talk . `` [ cell phone rings ] billy : [ sighs ] jill : hello , billy . it 's your mother . good job avoiding me , son . i assume it 's because of the fact you gave your seat away on the plane away to that cowboy bartender travis . that is absolutely unacceptable , billy . this is a business trip . it is not some sightseeing tour . so get over yourself and get to the airport now . jack : hey , i left you a text . it seemed , i do n't know , impersonal . what i need to say , i - i 'd like to say in person . i 'm still at top of the tower . most everyone 's left now , but maybe you could meet me here if you get this . ashley : looks like we 're gon na have to rally around jack and support him 'cause god knows phyllis wo n't be doing it . phyllis : we need to get back to town . billy : and then what ? we keep living a lie ? or do we tell the truth and deal with the consequences ? phyllis : the last thing i want to do is hurt him , billy . billy : the thing is , phyllis , we already have . abby : of course i would love to help cheer up uncle jack , but right now , dad needs me , too . ashley : honey , you 're always toeing that newman - abbott line just like a champ , are n't you ? abby : i just -- i feel like i should be with him , especially since nick and victoria have drifted away from the company . what ? ashley : they did n't exactly drift away , honey . from what i understand , victor pretty much shoved them out the door . do n't get me wrong , i understand he 's going through a lot and i feel for him , but i also know that victor 's gon na be back to his old tricks probably pretty soon . so why do n't you take some of my advice and let your father and your uncle look for support elsewhere . why do n't you go focus on your husband ? abby : this is gon na sound awful , but ... i 'm almost relieved that he did n't come to the service . i just -- i feel like on a day like today , it 's almost easier to go through this alone rather than having to pretend . i 'm so tired of pretending . victoria : well , while cane and i are on the 30th floor giving our presentation , you 'll be free to go sailing on puget sound , you can go hike the cascades . you can relax in one of those little microbreweries if you want . does that sound like fun ? i know -- i know it 's not as romantic as sailing around the world ... but we have to start our adventure somewhere , right ? travis : seattle 's as good a place as any . victoria : so , are you in ? travis : i 'm in . victoria : [ laughs ] great . all right . so , come on . we have things to do . we have to make a list . i have to make a list for the nanny , i have to kiss the kids , again , um ... travis : mm - hmm . victoria : we have to order the car to the airport ... travis : slow down , slow down . take a breath , okay ? first things first . kevin : i should have driven chloe back to chelsea 's . she may not realize it , but today 's an emotional day for her , too . michael : she is lucky to have you . the depth of your understanding is a huge gift . kevin : that 's what friends do . michael : oh , more than friends . i see how her guard goes down around you . you two seem closer than ever . sharon : i thought that was what you wanted . i mean , not that mariah and i sit around discussing you . kevin : but you do , actually , sit around discussing me . sharon : i just thought that was your goal , to get back together with chloe . kevin : it is . in the biggest way . just when i think i 'm making progress , when she , bella , and i feel like a real family , she puts her walls back up . i just wish i knew why . chloe : i 'm sorry i kept you waiting . i told you i 'd be back . jill : have you heard from phyllis ? jack : no . has billy been in touch ? jill : no , i have n't been able to reach him . until now . jack : where were you ? phyllis : i was with billy . chloe : i brought you something . i kept my promise , dee - dee . i told you adam would pay . and now he has . so you can rest easy , baby . justice has finally been done . victor : connor deserves to grow up with his father and mother loving him and protecting him . adam : so you 're doing this for me ? victor : doing this for your son . but when you make up your mind , you 'll have to say goodbye to everything and everyone you know . there 's no turning back . adam : dad . victor : [ sighs ] you know , son ... you and i have hurt each other a lot . but i 've hurt you more . this is for family . chelsea : maybe you were right about that nap . i 'm exhausted . nick : i think it 's a good idea . you know , i can wait around down here just in case connor wakes up . chelsea : no , thank you . you 've done enough . i do n't think we could have gotten through the day without you . nick : you 're tougher than you think . you and connor are gon na make it through this . you know , if things ever seem tougher than usual , i 'm here for you , chelsea . i 'm just a phone call away . chelsea : thank you . adam : knowing that you trust me when i do n't trust myself , you love me , always . knowing that you are ... the best partner anyone could ever ask for . in every sense of the word . i love you today . i will love you tomorrow . now and forever . chelsea : i do n't love you despite your soul , adam . i love you because of it . there 's a reason i 've always supported you . there 's a reason i 've never been able to walk out that door , even though i 've threatened to . you are a good person . you are ... everything i 've ever wanted and everything i - i did n't even know i wanted . [ chuckles , sighs ] i love you , adam newman ... today ... tomorrow ... now and forever . adam : look at us , huh ? chelsea : [ chuckles ] adam : yeah ? almost like we never had them off . beautiful , right ? chelsea : and we never will again . [ sighs softly ] [ sighs ] [ next_on ] dylan : stitch , i need your help . it needs to be off the record . luca : i loved you , summer , and i know you loved me . billy : what do you think i was doing today ? jill : you were sneaking around with phyllis . | at adam 's memorial , victor took responsibility for adam 's death . as victor geared up to make a full confession , nikki urged him to stop . jack interrupted victor 's speech . jack assured victor that adam would forgive him and that adam 's death was an accident . victor was touched and he thanked jack . chelsea 's eulogy to adam was directed at connor . chelsea told connor what a wonderful and brave adam had been . chelsea also said that victor made mistakes , but he came through when she , adam , and connor needed him the most . billy and phyllis met at the abbott cabin and resumed their affair . phyllis proposed that she and billy continue live a double life so they could be together without hurting their families . billy wanted to come clean and openly date phyllis . chloe approached victor to ask why he did n't go through with the confession . victor said he did n't confess because it would 've taken down nikki , too . victor warned chloe that he 'd make her pay if she killed adam . jill was dismayed when victoria told her that billy decided not to go on the trip , and that at billy 's suggestion , victoria was taking travis along instead . victoria and travis went back to her place . | <s>[INST] victor : there are some things you do n't know about adam and what happened to him . things that need to be said . some people think that he and i were enemies . and in some ways , that is true . and i think it was mostly due to the fact that he was very much like me -- full of ambition , drive , sometimes ruthlessness . but he had a big heart when it came to his family . he 'd do anything to fight for you and for connor . in that , he was like me . some people believe in destiny . i do n't , really . life has taught me to write my own story . a man writes his own story , really , based on his experiences . and someone like me and someone like adam , we believe that we determined our future , the course of our life . i believed in that . until this happened . until his life was cut short . i had such plans for you , for your boy , for adam . i wanted you to be happy . with all my resources , all my money , all my planning , all my scheming to give you and adam and your boy a happy life . fate stepped in , cut short his life . and i was n't there when it counted most . if you all wonder who 's to blame for adam 's death ... you 're looking at him . victor : i wanted to control adam 's life . i wanted to make sure that all the pieces fit perfectly and that he would then become a part of the newman family . kevin : sorry . victor : and the newman family business . kevin : i think victor 's about to confess . victor : that 's the tragedy of this . my attempt to control , my attempt to make sure that he did things on my timetable , not his . that 's the mistake i made . i should have been patient . instead -- nikki : victor . do n't do this . victor : no . i was too late . jack : victor . if adam were here right now , do you know what he would say ? `` i understand and i forgive you . `` i believe that because i 've had to accept the same hard - learned lesson as you . we ca n't control the people we love . in fact , the more we love them , the more we have to be willing to let them go . billy : you realize this is the first time we 've been together since jill caught onto us . phyllis : the hell with jill . the hell with her . you 're here , i 'm here . that 's all that matters . victor : i appreciate your words , but the stark truth is that adam would be alive -- jack : if you were n't you , if adam were n't adam , if somehow the stars were aligned differently that night ? victor , what happened at that cabin was an accident . a terrible , tragic accident . no one can bring your son back . no one can make up for those lost opportunities . but i want to comment on something you said earlier . a man does write his own story . adam would be the first to tell you that it 's not too late for you , or anyone else he loved , to write their own . whatever happens tomorrow , whatever mistakes we make , and we are bound to make our share , today 's about adam . you lost a son , and i 'm terribly sorry . i will miss him a great deal . victor : thank you . chelsea : i think i want to say something . nick : are you sure ? chelsea : yeah . connor deserves to know how important his father was to the people in this room , all the people that loved him , flaws and all , and i was one of those people . nick : okay . i mean , nobody expects you to if you 're not okay -- chelsea : adam would . adam would expect me to , and he 'd be right . i owe that to him and to my son . [ sighs ] i 'm gon na tell you about the best man i 've ever known . i 'm gon na tell you about your dad . the first thing i need you to know , maybe the only thing i need you to know is that we 're gon na be okay . it 's gon na be you and me against the world , and there is no one else i would rather have on my team , okay ? [ sighs ] but i 'm really gon na miss your dad . and you 're gon na miss him , too . and i want you to know that it 's okay if you 're sad or angry or frustrated because i 'm feeling those things right now , too . i really am . it 's never easy to lose somebody that you love . especially somebody as amazing as your dad . he was n't perfect , and he made his fair share of mistakes , but he loved us with his whole heart . we were his heart . and he 's ours . [ sniffles ] and he 's gon na be smiling down on you all the time . and he 's gon na be telling you to keep going when you think you ca n't keep going . he 's gon na be teaching you to be kind and to be respectful and to find the joys in life wherever you can because it 's the only life we got , right ? so daddy wants us to live it to the fullest , and that 's what we 're gon na do . daddy fought so hard to be with us , he did . he kept coming back for us . he kept coming back . [ sighs ] and it would have been easier for him to just disappear , but no , he faced the consequences and he earned forgiveness and he picked up the pieces . it did n't happen overnight , and a lot of people did n't think that he could change . [ sighs ] but he proved himself . there was one person in particular he always wanted to prove himself to , and that was your grandpa . your grandpa 's made mistakes , too , but i want you to remember something , connor . when we needed him the most , your grandpa came through for us . i do n't want you to ever forget that because i never will . the last time we were all together , your daddy said some really beautiful things to you . he said that he 's always gon na be there for you , and he 's always gon na teach you all of life 's lessons . and i 'm so sorry that he 's not gon na be here to teach you those lessons . but i 'm gon na be here for those moments , those special moments , and all of the people in this room are gon na be here because they love you so much . and i just want you to remember that last day with daddy when he taught you how to fish . what did he say ? he said the trick was to , um ... [ sighs ] just to cast it out as high and as far as you can and to be brave , right ? is n't that what he said ? so that 's what we 're gon na do , okay ? we 're gon na be brave . just like daddy . i love you so much . hey , sweet boy . hi . billy : this feels good . it feels like genoa city with all its people and all its problems are far , far away . phyllis : yeah . sooner or late , though , we 're gon na have to go back . jack 's gon na wonder where i 've been , and he 's gon na want to tell me all about adam 's memorial . billy : i do n't want to think about any of that right now . i just want to focus on you . and this . especially these . phyllis : billy . we have to think about this . we have to make a choice . and there 's only one option that i see , now that jill knows . billy : do n't say that this is the last time . phyllis : i 'm not saying that . billy : what are you saying ? we should come forward and tell jack ? phyllis : i 'm saying that we have to live two lives -- one in public , for the whole world to see , and one in secret , just for us . nick : you should be so proud of your mommy , bud . i know your daddy would be . sharon : that was so brave . chelsea : thanks , sharon . sharon : i do n't know if i could have done that . nick : how you doing ? chelsea : not great . i 'm tired . actually , would you mind dropping us off ? nick : uh , yeah , sure . chelsea : thank you . nick : come on , bud . chelsea : [ sighs ] jack : nick . thank you for stepping up today for adam . given your history , i know that was n't easy . nick : well , could n't have been any easier , you reaching out to my dad . it means a lot , jack . more than you know . jack : like i said , today 's about adam . you have my phone number . any time you need anything . anywhere . call me . chelsea : thank you , jack . come on , baby . kevin : we should probably give chelsea and connor some time to get settled at home . michael : all right . you know what i 'm thinking ? maybe coffee , something sweet at crimson lights ? kevin : you read my mind . michael : excellent . sharon : sounds good . michael : all right , let 's go . chloe : you know what ? why do n't you go without me and save me a doughnut or something ? kevin : okay . michael : yeah , come on . chloe : so , what stopped you ? well , you were obviously going to confess what you did to adam , and then .... i mean , you did n't -- you 're clearly punishing yourself . there was an added bonus . you could have taken me down with you . victor : i would have taken down nikki , as well . and i ca n't do that . and as for you , everyone believes that you 're innocent . chloe : that 's because i am . victor : i really hope that 's the truth . chloe : well , it is . victor : because if it is n't , i promise you , you 'll wish you lived on another planet . jill : oh , victoria . victoria : [ sighs ] hi . jill : that was pretty rough , huh ? victoria : uh , yeah . i 've had better days . jill : yeah . bet it 's a relief that you 're gon na hop on a plane and go to seattle , though . victoria : actually , we 're really looking forward to it . jill : excuse me ? we ? victoria : oh , billy did n't tell you . well , he 's the one that suggested that we go together . jill : really ? [ chuckles ] why ? victoria : i do n't know . i mean , he said something about some other priority . you know billy . he 's always very vague . jill : mm . yes . i know billy . victoria : cane and i are capable of representing the company without him , i think . and with travis there , we 'll really be able to enjoy the city . there 's apparently this seafood restaurant that has the most amazing dungeness crab and wild salmon ... travis : and the best pinot noir in the pacific northwest . jill : crab and pinot noir . great . thank you . fine . victoria : yeah , it 's the perfect way to celebrate brash & sassy 's success , do n't you think ? jill : yes . yes , good luck . victoria : thank you . jill : good luck . damn . adam : i told you everything 'cause i wanted you to know the truth , jack . and what else ? jack , i wanted you to be happy that i was back . jack : okay . i 'll help you . adam : that 's a good choice . jack : under one condition . you look me in the eye and you swear to me the old adam is dead . all the old grudges , all the dissatisfaction , all the excuses , all the anger -- gone ! if you really feel remorse about delia 's death -- adam : of course i do , jack . jack : then be better . do better . be the man adam newman never had a chance to be . adam : i swear to you , jack . i swear . ashley : you 're really gon na miss him , are n't you , jack ? jack : you have no idea . ashley : jackie , where 's your wife ? i thought she 'd want to be here for you . jack : there is no way phyllis is gon na be here today . ashley : did you ask her to come ? not that you should have to . jack : by asking her , i would be telling her to set her feelings aside , to suppress the anger she feels for victor because it 's inconvenient for me . i have to learn my own lesson . otherwise , all those things i said to victor today -- just words . ashley : and what about you ? what about your feelings and your needs ? i would love it if phyllis , just for a second , could get past her own pain and put you first . billy : you , who 's afraid of nothing and no one , is proposing that we go on living a lie ? phyllis : it 's the only way we can stay together without hurting jack . billy : you think jack would prefer that ? phyllis , i love my brother . but i do n't think we 'd do him any favors by sneaking around . i think we got to come clean . just deal with it like adults . phyllis : i got my kids , you know ? i got summer . she should n't have to deal with any more heartache . your mother finds out , she 's gon na go for blood . billy : okay , your daughter is a very strong person . she 's gon na land on her feet like she always does . i mean , what 's the worst my mother 's gon na do -- she 's gon na fire me from brash & sassy ? that 's fine . we 'll start something bigger and better than anything else out there . phyllis : victoria ? billy : we 're over . phyllis : she still gets to you , and that 's all right . i can deal with that . but you get to her . she cares about you still , very much , billy . billy : so ? phyllis : so , if she finds out about us , she could go crazy . she could scream bloody murder , she could try to alter your custody with your children . i mean , are you ready to lose your kids over this ? billy : victoria would n't do that . phyllis : love makes people do crazy things , billy . just look at the two of us . travis : you must be spent . victoria : ca n't stop picturing my father 's face [ sighs ] when he talked about adam and ... poor chelsea . poor connor . [ sighs ] it feels like it 's all falling apart . travis : how can i help ? victoria : you could pack a bag while i talk to hannah about staying with the kids for a couple of days . you could join me on the flight to seattle . travis : hey , jill does n't want me to go . she 's your boss . i know how much brash & sassy means to you . i do n't want to do anything that might jeopardize your position . victoria : come on , look . jill is the one who created a problem by playing matchmaker . she should have listen to jack and what he said about giving up control . you know we 're proof that it works , right ? travis : we are ? victoria : yeah . look . i left you in mexico . i let you sail off . and you decided to come back . travis : to you . victoria : to me . travis : well , you 're making it awfully hard to say no . victoria : well , there 's a solution to that . just say yes . adam : chelsea lawson newman . will you please marry me again ? chelsea : yes . adam : yes ! yes ! yes ! see , that 's so great ! i mean , we have no , you know , bridesmaids , we have no guests , we have no maid of honor , we have no cake , we do n't have a deejay -- we got nothin ' . chelsea : you and me . that 's all we need . nick : connor insisted he did n't need a nap . chelsea : but then he was probably out before his head hit the pillow , right ? nick : [ sighs ] yeah . that 's how the little man works . i 'm learning . you know , you could follow connor 's lead . maybe go get some rest . chelsea : no . if i sleep , i 'll just dream . about adam and the life we were supposed to have , and then waking up will be like reliving this nightmare all over again . nick : well , you 're gon na have to sleep at some point . chelsea : not yet . nick : you know , chelsea , what you did today -- the way you kept it together , the way you -- the way you talked about connor 's dad ... chelsea : how could he leave us ? how could he leave us ? how could he leave us ? sharon : you , mariah , and i are going to have to hold down the fort for chelsea until she 's ready to get back to work . kevin : i ca n't believe how strong she was today . even victor came close to losing it , and that never happens . sharon : yeah , he was definitely off his game . kevin : do you think he was about to confess to framing adam ? michael : it 's the closest he 's come . kevin : why do you think he did n't ? chloe : you 're asking me , like i know ? kevin : no , i -- well , i saw you walk up to him as we were leaving . i wondered if he said anything . chloe : well , he did n't . i 'm , uh -- i 'm gon na get out of here . i should go check on bella . kevin : okay . i 'll go with you . chloe : no , it 's okay . i 'm good , thanks . i 'll talk to you tomorrow . bye . victor : sweetheart , if you do n't mind , i need some time by myself , okay ? nikki : i understand . this is where you feel closest to adam . victor : this is where we had some of our most bitter encounters . you know , i was hoping that , in time , we would get past all the animosity , work side by side as father and son . nikki : well , you still have a son . and two amazing daughters . and grandchildren who think that you personally hung the moon and the stars . victor : mm . nikki : not to mention a wife who adores you . so you hang on to that . see you later . victor : thank you , baby . thank you . jack : sis , i know you mean well , but phyllis is and has always been a complicated , passionate , and yes , at times , volatile woman . i would n't have it any other way . ashley : but do n't you -- jack : if she could n't be here today or would n't be here today , i 'm all right with that . as long as we 're honest with each other . ashley : okay . jack : okay . jill : it is just me , or does honesty seem to be a one - way street when it comes to jack and phyllis ? ashley : it 's not just you . it really annoys me . he 's always defending phyllis . saying how this whole thing is so much harder on her and how she 's entitled to her anger ... i get it . she is . what victor did to both of them was unconscionable , but does n't she need to get over it just a little bit , if not just for herself , but for jack ? her husband took a big hit today . jill : i know . he really thought of adam as his son . ashley : i know , and she should have been here for him . i understand that she hates victor , but i would love it if she would just love my brother more . sometimes i think that if it was billy -- jill : no , what about billy ? ashley : nothing . never mind . jill : no , no , no . i really want to know . ashley : jill , when it comes to billy , if he 's ever going through some kind of trouble or pain , phyllis has tons of sympathy for him . i would just like it if she shared that sympathy with my brother . that 's all . jill : yep . ashley : excuse me . billy : this whole thing has been insane since we started . phyllis : you think ? billy : and it 's gon na get even crazier if we start to compartmentalize all our feelings . phyllis : we can do it . billy : i do n't want to do that . i do n't want to find little dark corners with you . i want to have you all the time . all of you . phyllis : we do n't always get what we want . billy : but we can . we can have what we want . that 's the point . you just have to say yes . [ cell phone vibrates ] billy : it 's my mother . phyllis : surprise . billy : `` where are you ? call me . `` [ cell phone vibrates ] billy : do n't tell me she texted you , too . phyllis : no , it 's jack . `` sorry we fought . we need to talk . `` [ cell phone rings ] billy : [ sighs ] jill : hello , billy . it 's your mother . good job avoiding me , son . i assume it 's because of the fact you gave your seat away on the plane away to that cowboy bartender travis . that is absolutely unacceptable , billy . this is a business trip . it is not some sightseeing tour . so get over yourself and get to the airport now . jack : hey , i left you a text . it seemed , i do n't know , impersonal . what i need to say , i - i 'd like to say in person . i 'm still at top of the tower . most everyone 's left now , but maybe you could meet me here if you get this . ashley : looks like we 're gon na have to rally around jack and support him 'cause god knows phyllis wo n't be doing it . phyllis : we need to get back to town . billy : and then what ? we keep living a lie ? or do we tell the truth and deal with the consequences ? phyllis : the last thing i want to do is hurt him , billy . billy : the thing is , phyllis , we already have . abby : of course i would love to help cheer up uncle jack , but right now , dad needs me , too . ashley : honey , you 're always toeing that newman - abbott line just like a champ , are n't you ? abby : i just -- i feel like i should be with him , especially since nick and victoria have drifted away from the company . what ? ashley : they did n't exactly drift away , honey . from what i understand , victor pretty much shoved them out the door . do n't get me wrong , i understand he 's going through a lot and i feel for him , but i also know that victor 's gon na be back to his old tricks probably pretty soon . so why do n't you take some of my advice and let your father and your uncle look for support elsewhere . why do n't you go focus on your husband ? abby : this is gon na sound awful , but ... i 'm almost relieved that he did n't come to the service . i just -- i feel like on a day like today , it 's almost easier to go through this alone rather than having to pretend . i 'm so tired of pretending . victoria : well , while cane and i are on the 30th floor giving our presentation , you 'll be free to go sailing on puget sound , you can go hike the cascades . you can relax in one of those little microbreweries if you want . does that sound like fun ? i know -- i know it 's not as romantic as sailing around the world ... but we have to start our adventure somewhere , right ? travis : seattle 's as good a place as any . victoria : so , are you in ? travis : i 'm in . victoria : [ laughs ] great . all right . so , come on . we have things to do . we have to make a list . i have to make a list for the nanny , i have to kiss the kids , again , um ... travis : mm - hmm . victoria : we have to order the car to the airport ... travis : slow down , slow down . take a breath , okay ? first things first . kevin : i should have driven chloe back to chelsea 's . she may not realize it , but today 's an emotional day for her , too . michael : she is lucky to have you . the depth of your understanding is a huge gift . kevin : that 's what friends do . michael : oh , more than friends . i see how her guard goes down around you . you two seem closer than ever . sharon : i thought that was what you wanted . i mean , not that mariah and i sit around discussing you . kevin : but you do , actually , sit around discussing me . sharon : i just thought that was your goal , to get back together with chloe . kevin : it is . in the biggest way . just when i think i 'm making progress , when she , bella , and i feel like a real family , she puts her walls back up . i just wish i knew why . chloe : i 'm sorry i kept you waiting . i told you i 'd be back . jill : have you heard from phyllis ? jack : no . has billy been in touch ? jill : no , i have n't been able to reach him . until now . jack : where were you ? phyllis : i was with billy . chloe : i brought you something . i kept my promise , dee - dee . i told you adam would pay . and now he has . so you can rest easy , baby . justice has finally been done . victor : connor deserves to grow up with his father and mother loving him and protecting him . adam : so you 're doing this for me ? victor : doing this for your son . but when you make up your mind , you 'll have to say goodbye to everything and everyone you know . there 's no turning back . adam : dad . victor : [ sighs ] you know , son ... you and i have hurt each other a lot . but i 've hurt you more . this is for family . chelsea : maybe you were right about that nap . i 'm exhausted . nick : i think it 's a good idea . you know , i can wait around down here just in case connor wakes up . chelsea : no , thank you . you 've done enough . i do n't think we could have gotten through the day without you . nick : you 're tougher than you think . you and connor are gon na make it through this . you know , if things ever seem tougher than usual , i 'm here for you , chelsea . i 'm just a phone call away . chelsea : thank you . adam : knowing that you trust me when i do n't trust myself , you love me , always . knowing that you are ... the best partner anyone could ever ask for . in every sense of the word . i love you today . i will love you tomorrow . now and forever . chelsea : i do n't love you despite your soul , adam . i love you because of it . there 's a reason i 've always supported you . there 's a reason i 've never been able to walk out that door , even though i 've threatened to . you are a good person . you are ... everything i 've ever wanted and everything i - i did n't even know i wanted . [ chuckles , sighs ] i love you , adam newman ... today ... tomorrow ... now and forever . adam : look at us , huh ? chelsea : [ chuckles ] adam : yeah ? almost like we never had them off . beautiful , right ? chelsea : and we never will again . [ sighs softly ] [ sighs ] [ next_on ] dylan : stitch , i need your help . it needs to be off the record . luca : i loved you , summer , and i know you loved me . billy : what do you think i was doing today ? jill : you were sneaking around with phyllis .Summarize.[/INST]at adam 's memorial , victor took responsibility for adam 's death . as victor geared up to make a full confession , nikki urged him to stop . jack interrupted victor 's speech . jack assured victor that adam would forgive him and that adam 's death was an accident . victor was touched and he thanked jack . chelsea 's eulogy to adam was directed at connor . chelsea told connor what a wonderful and brave adam had been . chelsea also said that victor made mistakes , but he came through when she , adam , and connor needed him the most . billy and phyllis met at the abbott cabin and resumed their affair . phyllis proposed that she and billy continue live a double life so they could be together without hurting their families . billy wanted to come clean and openly date phyllis . chloe approached victor to ask why he did n't go through with the confession . victor said he did n't confess because it would 've taken down nikki , too . victor warned chloe that he 'd make her pay if she killed adam . jill was dismayed when victoria told her that billy decided not to go on the trip , and that at billy 's suggestion , victoria was taking travis along instead . victoria and travis went back to her place .</s> | 18,017 |

[ pen scratching ] kate : leaving so soon ? where are you going ? as if i did n't know . [ keys clacking ] daniel : you know , melanie came by to surprise you last night , but you were n't on duty . she was ready to come with me today , but jet lag started to get her down , so she begged off . maxine : oh , that 's too bad . she will be by , though , later , wo n't she ? i ca n't wait to see that little dickens . daniel : oh , she will find you , guaranteed . you seem to be her favorite . maxine : [ chuckles ] nicole : hey , i got your text . what 's up ? daniel : yeah , hey , thanks for coming . i had a cancellation . so , if you have a few minutes , i would like to -- i would like your advice on something . nicole : i 'm sorry . you want my advice ? daniel : uh , yes , i do . nicole : well , howdy . i guess my mama was right . there is a first time for everything . daniel : all right , come on . let 's go . [ knock at door ] melanie : relax . it 's brady . just got to figure out how to talk him into staying here for lunch . melanie : you made it ! [ squealing ] serena : i did . by that shocked look on your face , i thought you did n't recognize me . melanie : oh , it has n't been that long . serena : prague was a while ago . melanie : [ chuckles ] yes . i ca n't believe you 're here ... and in salem . you 're going to love it . i 'm so excited for you . serena : i know , and i ca n't wait for you to show me around , and we can catch up melanie : yes . um , i want to -- i would love to do that . right now i do n't -- serena : no , i - i do n't mean now . i 'm actually in a bit of a rush . i have to get over to university hospital , get some things squared up , but i thought i 'd take the chance that you 'd be here at your dad 's place , and we could do a quick hello . melanie : hi . serena : hi . how have you been ? melanie : good . just , uh -- serena : oh , my god . is that the time ? melanie : yeah , why ? serena : what a dummy . i - i set my watch an hour late when we were landing . melanie : oh , no . serena : i must be the only person who still uses a watch instead of my phone . um , okay , we 'll catch up later ? melanie : yes , yes . serena : okay , i 'll -- i 'll call you . [ chuckles ] bye . melanie : bye . huh . cool . you 're fine . you 're safe . you did it . [ chuckles ] you got away with it . aiden : a bit disconcerting , do n't you think ? a subject as personal as money keeps coming up between us . hope : aiden , please . it does n't matter one way or -- aiden : it 's -- it 's okay . i 'm not suggesting that it 's on you or that you even care one way or the other . hope : i do n't . really , i do n't . aiden : although ... why would n't you think i was -- to the manor born , hmm ? i mean , look how i live , right ? the house , the car , the suits , top - of - the - line everything ... seems obvious , right ? plus , i never open up about anything , so ... [ sighs ] truth is i grew up poorer than poor . hope : i understand . but after law school , you started your practice -- aiden : well , after law school , i worked as a public defender , then an ada , so i never made much money . in fact , it was meredith 's inheritance that carried us through . i mean , to be honest , you know , i never cared much about money . [ taps desk ] but i do care about my son . and i worry how it affected him , you know , losing his mom as a young boy ... the way it happened . so i admit , you know , i tend to overspend on him sometimes , you know , like , uh -- like meredith did ... to make his life as close to the normal as he used to know as i can make it . does that make sense ? hope : it does . aiden : yeah . hope : i 'm sorry i even brought it up . look , the last thing i want to do is waste what little time we have together talking about things that are unimportant . aiden : hmm . now , i could not agree more . so then what shall we talk about ? hope : how about we not talk ... at all ? rafe : listen ... if i could take back what i did , i would ... in a heartbeat , okay ? it was a mistake . it was a mistake that i -- jordan : what was a mistake was you telling me that you loved me . rafe : no , i do love you , jordan . i love you , i will always love -- jordan : no , stop saying that ! unless you came here to hurt me , do not say that . i am staying here in salem because i am building a life for myself . i have made friends . my brother is here . and i have a real chance to move on . rafe : with chad dimera ? with cha -- really ? how many times do i have to warn you about that guy ? jordan : you do n't get to tell me who i can see and who i ca n't see . my life is no longer your concern . rafe : no , it is my concern , because i care about you , and i always will , jordan ! chad : looks like i 'm interrupting something . kate : [ sighs ] how did he ever manage to get magnolias in december ? [ cell phone ringing ] kate : hello , stefano . stefano : buon giorno , katerina . [ chuckles ] daniel : here you go . nicole : thank you . daniel : yeah . okay . so i just figured , with your being a reporter , that you might know about these things -- i do n't know -- that maybe it 's one of your little tricks of the trade . nicole : could be , but you 're going to have to spell it out for me . what are you talking about ? daniel : oh , okay , okay . so say you get a call from a blocked number . how do you find out who made that call ? nicole : why would you care ? daniel : because i just -- i do . i care . nicole : people can block their i.d . if they want to . daniel : okay , i know that , but it -- nicole : but what -- so what are you so worried about ? i mean , is it melanie ? daniel ? daniel : okay , yes . and here 's the thing -- i mean , melanie -- she 's been a little off since she got back . and it 's probably nothing ... nicole : mm - hmm . daniel : but last night when she was out , she got a call at my place , and this person sounded just a little odd . so how would i trace that number ? nicole : with a court order . daniel : that 's great . nicole : i 'm sorry . you have to obey the law unless you 're the nsa , i guess . what did melanie say ? daniel : uh , i do n't know -- just nothing . nicole : so , she 's covering ? daniel : no , i just do n't want to push her , you know ? nicole : why not ? daniel : because i feel like i need to give her her space . nicole : okay , you asked me for my advice , so i 'm going to give it to you . stop respecting melanie 's space , okay ? demand the truth ... or ... treat her like you treat me . [ knock at door ] brady : mel , it 's brady ! melanie : oh . coming ! coming , coming , coming , coming , coming . i 'm coming . hi . brady : hi . i did n't know if you were going to be here or the hospital . melanie : oh , well , i feel like i was here , and i was here . but i 'm ready to go . brady : you have cabin fever , do n't you ? melanie : you have no idea . brady : let 's get out of here . melanie : okay . kate : stefano , let 's keep this short , okay ? the tax authorities are probably tapping this line . you do n't want them to find your hiding place . stefano : [ laughs ] you know , i have always loved how thoughtful you are . kate : get to the point . stefano : you know , i understand that you are trying to buy a telecom company in malaysia . now , would you care for my advice ? kate : so i can listen to it and then do the opposite ? are we still playing that little game ? stefano : [ laughs ] you know , we 've had some fun times , you and me . but everything 's worked out well , has n't it ? how do you like sharing ceo duties with my son ? jordan : rafe and i are finished . he 's leaving . rafe : right . i 'm done . yeah . chad : you know , you sure have a lot of police business to run by jordan these days . rafe : it was personal . chad : hmm . rafe : yeah , just wanted jordan to know that she still has a friend in me . i make a point of always looking out for my friends . chad : [ scoffs ] well , that is a very noble sentiment , rafe . i am sure that jordan appreciates that . are you okay ? jordan : terrific . let 's get out of here . serena : i hope showing me the ropes wo n't be too much work . i mean , you are the head nurse on this unit . maxine : oh , i 'll be fine , honey . and you will be too . mr. burns did the right thing telling me to get you acclimated . so you 're here on a research grant ? serena : yes . i am so thrilled the hospital 's opening its resources to me . maxine : well , if anybody gives you trouble , you come see me . i know how to ... sidestep certain people , bump others out of the way and just roll right over the rest . serena : [ laughs ] maxine : mmm . never thought i 'd say this , but this hospital has some good coffee . would you like some ? serena : sure . nicole : daniel , i - i know you 're thrilled that melanie is back , and you do n't want to get on her case . i get that . i 'm not a parent , obviously , so this may sound presumptuous , but you have got to be hard on her the way you 're always hard on me . i mean , would you let me get away with being evasive and playing games with you ? no . but that is a good thing . you have helped me by being hard on me , more than you know . and when you demand that i am honest with you , therefore , myself , it makes me face up to things . it makes me a better , stronger person . do you get what i 'm saying ? daniel : yeah . yeah , i do . nicole : what if melanie really does need your help ... and she does n't get it because you 're too afraid of hurting her or alienating her by pushing her to be truthful with you or facing head - on whatever it is she is struggling with ? daniel : you know , i had a feeling you were the right person to talk to about this . thanks . nicole : yeah . melanie : a lot of new stores since i was here last . brady : oh , yeah , we got a lot more . oh , that reminds me -- um , i have to get some batteries . will you stay here ? would you -- do you mind if i get them before we eat ? melanie : yeah . no , no , go for it . i 'm going to look around a little bit more . brady : you know , we 're not in europe anymore . we 're not in the land of pickpockets anymore . you do n't have to hold on to this purse so tight . melanie : right .

[ sighs ] truth is i grew up poorer than poor . hope : i understand . but after law school , you started your practice -- aiden : well , after law school , i worked as a public defender , then an ada , so i never made much money . in fact , it was meredith 's inheritance that carried us through . i mean , to be honest , you know , i never cared much about money . [ taps desk ] but i do care about my son . and i worry how it affected him , you know , losing his mom as a young boy ... the way it happened . so i admit , you know , i tend to overspend on him sometimes , you know , like , uh -- like meredith did ... to make his life as close to the normal as he used to know as i can make it . does that make sense ? hope : it does . aiden : yeah . hope : i 'm sorry i even brought it up . look , the last thing i want to do is waste what little time we have together talking about things that are unimportant . aiden : hmm . now , i could not agree more . so then what shall we talk about ? hope : how about we not talk ... at all ? rafe : listen ... if i could take back what i did , i would ... in a heartbeat , okay ? it was a mistake . it was a mistake that i -- jordan : what was a mistake was you telling me that you loved me . rafe : no , i do love you , jordan . i love you , i will always love -- jordan : no , stop saying that ! unless you came here to hurt me , do not say that . i am staying here in salem because i am building a life for myself . i have made friends . my brother is here . and i have a real chance to move on . rafe : with chad dimera ? with cha -- really ? how many times do i have to warn you about that guy ? jordan : you do n't get to tell me who i can see and who i ca n't see . my life is no longer your concern . rafe : no , it is my concern , because i care about you , and i always will , jordan ! chad : looks like i 'm interrupting something . kate : [ sighs ] how did he ever manage to get magnolias in december ?

[ scene_break ] krystal : i am the first to admit that david is a lying snake , but annie running sure does lend credence to his claim , does n't it ? julia : uh -- i 'm sorry to interrupt . tad , i need to talk to you . krystal : sounds important . you better go . tad : just excuse me for a second . what is it ? what 's up ? julia : ahem . i did a little more research after we pulled up those dna test results for you and emma . tad : and ? julia : i scored , big . [ scene_break ] dixie : i 'm so sorry i broke down like that . j.r. : do n't apologize . lavery was a complete jerk . he knows where emma is . he all but threw it in our faces . dixie : well , i think i should 've expected him to react like that and to protect her . i mean , she 's just trying to protect the child that she raised . if i were her , i would 've run , too . [ scene_break ] annie : i -- i always expected we would have our children the old - fashioned way , but after we were married , terry told me about some genetic concerns in his family , and he convinced me that we should n't risk passing them on to our children . i did n't really jump onboard at first , but terry was adamant . he really pushed for it , so eventually i agreed . after a ton of research and interviewing a number of fertility specialists , we settled on greg madden . [ scene_break ] tad : why do i get the feeling we should be doing this in a darkened alley ? julia : if i were n't on duty right now , i would insist on it . tad : my god . julia , this looks like annie mcdermott 's entire medical history . julia : ahem -- shh . do n't even think about asking me how i got it . [ scene_break ] dixie : you ca n't expect a mother to be logical or fair when it comes to raising a child . we act on instinct and fierce love . j.r. : fathers do , too . but , still -- dixie : look , you have to imagine how much she loves that little girl . annie has raised emma since she was a baby . she 's just doing what any mother in her position would do -- fighting to hang on to her child . [ scene_break ] annie : terry wanted a daughter so badly . he said he wanted her to look just like me . i know . i ca n't even think about it . to think that he might have created emma for his own twisted -- it 's disgusting . i ca n't believe -- i -- i should 've known with this whole weird -- tad : you could n't possibly have known , ok ? you ca n't blame yourself . annie : but i do , every day . anyway , um , dr. madden said that he could n't guarantee us a girl but that there were certain ways to manipulate acid levels and that can increase your chances of having one , so i did everything he told me to do , and i got pregnant on my first try . my pregnancy and delivery -- the whole experience was a dream . but the best gift was emma -- oh , just this beautiful little girl . [ scene_break ] dixie : my beautiful baby boy . my sunshine . i remember when they placed you in my arms for the first time . it was as if there was a magnetic field that was created in that moment that connected your heart and mine . and i knew then that nothing would ever break that connection . nothing ever will . [ scene_break ] tad : julia , have you seen this ? apparently , annie had a dna test run a year ago on her and emma . [ scene_break ] annie : i did the dna test when terry and i were going through our divorce . i was just so desperate to hold on to emma , and i wanted to sever any ties that terry had to her , so i thought that the results could prove that emma was biologically mine but not biologically his . i never should 've taken that test . [ scene_break ] dixie : that magnetic connection that i felt when i first held you -- that 's what i felt when i saw emma for the first time . [ scene_break ] annie : the first time i saw those dna results , my heart stopped . i -- i could n't believe what i was reading . [ scene_break ] tad : you did it . it 's all right here in black and white . annie and emma are n't a match , which means it 's very possible that that girl is my daughter . [ scene_break ] [ music plays ] bianca : sean ? been a while since we lived under the same roof , but i still remember what you were like when you were trying to worm your way out of the hot seat . it may have worked on barbara , but it never worked on me . so what is going on between you and colby chandler , the real story ? singer : ¯ do you know what you want ¯ sean : we hooked up , but i -- i did n't force anything on her , because she was totally down . there 's no way i got her drunk . she did that all on her own . bianca : so everything that adam said about you seducing her and taking advantage of her -- he made all of that up ? sean : please , if you had asked me a few weeks ago , i would 've said definitely . but then , colby lied about sleeping with your new brother josh , almost had him thrown in prison . ok , now , i would n't be surprised if she told her dad all that bs about me . bianca : but why would she want to get any guy in that much trouble ? sean : because she 's psycho ? look , all i know is this whole disaster has put a major downer on my road trip . i 'm so over pine valley . singer : ¯ everybody 's got someone to love ¯ sean : hey , how about i go back to france with you ? bianca : sorry , bro . i 'm sticking around for a while . and i kind of hoped that you would , too . i mean , you 're one of the main reasons that i came back here . i was hoping that i could get to know both of my brothers a little bit better . i mean , you 're all grown - up now , and there 's a lot that i do n't know about you . sean : here 's all there is to know -- if your bone marrow had been a match for molly , i would n't exist . colby : you do n't exist . singer : ¯ what 's it going to be ? ¯ [ scene_break ] adam : i forgot your cheesy fries . krystal : oh . it 's ok . i 'm not really that hungry anyway . what 's wrong , honey ? you 're all flushed . where have you been all this time ? adam : yeah , where i 've been does n't matter . what matters is what i found out . my baby -- i ca n't call her that anymore , can i ? she is n't my baby , is she ? [ scene_break ] tad : it 's no wonder annie took off -- it makes perfect sense . you know , i hate to admit it , but for the first time in his life , i think hayward was telling the truth . julia : back up a minute , tad . something 's wrong . [ scene_break ] annie : i knew something had to be wrong . it -- it just -- it did n't make sense for emma and me not to be a match . ryan : did you -- did you have another test run ? annie : i wanted to , but i was scared . i was scared that terry would somehow find out what i was doing and try to use the test against me . ryan : well , did he ? did he ever find out ? annie : no , but he might as well have . i did n't win full custody , so i ran with emma . i mean , that judge wanted me to share custody with that monster . anyway , i had heard that dr. madden was living in pine valley , so i came to ask him about him , ask some sort of explanation as to why my dna did n't match my daughter 's . but the doctor was gone before i ever got the chance . ryan : did you ever lose consciousness when you were giving birth to emma ? annie : no . i told you my delivery was perfect . i remember the entire thing . ryan : and you say you saw her immediately after you delivered ? annie : ryan , i held her with the umbilical cord still attached . there is no way that dr. madden could 've switched babies on me . ryan : but there is a way that he could 've someone else 's egg , right ? annie : no . there is n't . emma is 100 % my child , body , blood , and soul . [ scene_break ] dixie : look , just because i sympathize with annie does n't mean that i 'm backing off . if emma turns out to be kate , i 'm going to fight like hell to get her back . j.r. : first , we have to find her . dixie : and we will . wo n't we ? god , tell me that i did n't blow it . j.r. : blow what ? dixie : david told me that i should just take emma and run and i said no way . what if he was right ? what if i lost my best chance at getting my daughter back ? [ scene_break ] annie : you do n't believe me . you want me to give emma to tad and dixie . ryan : i stack up all the evidence , but honestly , none of it matters . because i believe you . i believe you . i believe that emma is yours , body , blood , and soul . and i will not let anyone take her from you . annie : thank you so much . ryan : that does n't mean that we 're not going to have a hell of a fight , though , you know that . especially if tad and dixie find out about that dna test . i mean , tad is a hell of a pi . it 's only a matter of time before he figures it out . annie : well , then we 'll have to make sure he ca n't find us . he -- he ca n't take emma if he ca n't find her . ryan : well , you ca n't run forever and hide forever , annie , but you can prove that emma is not biologically theirs . i mean , that 's the way to go here . we run another dna test -- tad and dixie 's against emma 's . and if there 's no match , you 're home free . [ scene_break ] jonathan : aidan , make them back off . it was bad enough when annie had to worry about losing her daughter to that pervert , terry . now your friends are threatening to take emma away from her ? no . make them back off . aidan : i 'm afraid i ca n't do that , jonathan . jonathan : do n't you tell me that you 're buying into hayward 's lies , too . aidan : i 'm not convinced they are lies . if annie had nothing to hide , then why did she run ? jonathan : she ran because dixie cornered her girl in a playgroup . why are you really doing this ? is it -- what , some sense of loyalty to your -- to your friend ? to your partner ? or somebody put a big chunk of cash in your pocket to terrorize an innocent woman and her child ? di : aidan is not doing this for money , jonathan . he is trying to find emma , because there is a real chance that -- that she is dixie and tad 's daughter . and if she is , then they have a right to be her parents . both of them . [ scene_break ] dixie : maybe if i had listened to david , i might have my little girl in my arms right now . j.r. : i know how bad you want kate back , mom . but trust me , kidnapping is not the best way to make that happen . you were just acquitted of murder . if emma happens to be kate , you 're going to want to have a full life with her . you do n't want to get locked up again for snatching a child . dixie : thank you . if i never see her again -- j.r. : but you will . tad 's working on this , and aidan 's helping him . they 're going to track annie down , and they 're going to get the answers that you need . you just got to trust tad right now . what ? what 's that look for ? dixie : nothing , it 's just the way you 're talking about tad after what he did at the trial . i never thought you 'd say anything good about him again . j.r. : i know , mom . i know how far tad went to save you . i know how far he went to find kate . and after going to the extremes to try to bring my sister home and having it blow up in his face , there 's no way in hell tad 's giving up now . [ scene_break ] tad : what do you mean , something 's wrong ? annie and emma are n't a match . it 's right there . julia : ok . if annie knew that she was n't emma 's biological mother -- if she was adopted , for instance , then she would know that they had no biological relationship . why run a dna test ? tad : you 're right . that does n't make sense . which is par for the course . because it seems like every single time i get a glimmer of hope , something else jumps up and kicks me in the face . julia : no , do n't give up yet . it is still possible that emma is kate . greg madden is involved . anything is possible . but what we need to figure out is why would annie order a dna test at all .

[ scene_break ] dixie : i 'm so sorry i broke down like that . j.r. : do n't apologize . lavery was a complete jerk . he knows where emma is . he all but threw it in our faces . dixie : well , i think i should 've expected him to react like that and to protect her . i mean , she 's just trying to protect the child that she raised . if i were her , i would 've run , too . [ scene_break ] annie : i -- i always expected we would have our children the old - fashioned way , but after we were married , terry told me about some genetic concerns in his family , and he convinced me that we should n't risk passing them on to our children . i did n't really jump onboard at first , but terry was adamant . he really pushed for it , so eventually i agreed . after a ton of research and interviewing a number of fertility specialists , we settled on greg madden . [ scene_break ] tad : why do i get the feeling we should be doing this in a darkened alley ? julia : if i were n't on duty right now , i would insist on it . tad : my god . julia , this looks like annie mcdermott 's entire medical history . julia : ahem -- shh . do n't even think about asking me how i got it . [ scene_break ] dixie : you ca n't expect a mother to be logical or fair when it comes to raising a child . we act on instinct and fierce love . j.r. : fathers do , too . but , still -- dixie : look , you have to imagine how much she loves that little girl . annie has raised emma since she was a baby . she 's just doing what any mother in her position would do -- fighting to hang on to her child . [ scene_break ] annie : terry wanted a daughter so badly . he said he wanted her to look just like me . i know . i ca n't even think about it . to think that he might have created emma for his own twisted -- it 's disgusting . i ca n't believe -- i -- i should 've known with this whole weird -- tad : you could n't possibly have known , ok ? you ca n't blame yourself . annie : but i do , every day . anyway , um , dr. madden said that he could n't guarantee us a girl but that there were certain ways to manipulate acid levels and that can increase your chances of having one , so i did everything he told me to do , and i got pregnant on my first try . my pregnancy and delivery -- the whole experience was a dream . but the best gift was emma -- oh , just this beautiful little girl . [ scene_break ] dixie : my beautiful baby boy . my sunshine . i remember when they placed you in my arms for the first time . it was as if there was a magnetic field that was created in that moment that connected your heart and mine . and i knew then that nothing would ever break that connection . nothing ever will . [ scene_break ] tad : julia , have you seen this ? apparently , annie had a dna test run a year ago on her and emma . [ scene_break ] annie : i did the dna test when terry and i were going through our divorce . i was just so desperate to hold on to emma , and i wanted to sever any ties that terry had to her , so i thought that the results could prove that emma was biologically mine but not biologically his . i never should 've taken that test . [ scene_break ] dixie : that magnetic connection that i felt when i first held you -- that 's what i felt when i saw emma for the first time . [ scene_break ] annie : the first time i saw those dna results , my heart stopped . i -- i could n't believe what i was reading . [ scene_break ] tad : you did it . it 's all right here in black and white . annie and emma are n't a match , which means it 's very possible that that girl is my daughter . [ scene_break ] [ music plays ] bianca : sean ? been a while since we lived under the same roof , but i still remember what you were like when you were trying to worm your way out of the hot seat . it may have worked on barbara , but it never worked on me . so what is going on between you and colby chandler , the real story ? singer : ¯ do you know what you want ¯ sean : we hooked up , but i -- i did n't force anything on her , because she was totally down . there 's no way i got her drunk . she did that all on her own . bianca : so everything that adam said about you seducing her and taking advantage of her -- he made all of that up ? sean : please , if you had asked me a few weeks ago , i would 've said definitely . but then , colby lied about sleeping with your new brother josh , almost had him thrown in prison . ok , now , i would n't be surprised if she told her dad all that bs about me . bianca : but why would she want to get any guy in that much trouble ? sean : because she 's psycho ? look , all i know is this whole disaster has put a major downer on my road trip . i 'm so over pine valley . singer : ¯ everybody 's got someone to love ¯ sean : hey , how about i go back to france with you ? bianca : sorry , bro . i 'm sticking around for a while . and i kind of hoped that you would , too . i mean , you 're one of the main reasons that i came back here . i was hoping that i could get to know both of my brothers a little bit better . i mean , you 're all grown - up now , and there 's a lot that i do n't know about you . sean : here 's all there is to know -- if your bone marrow had been a match for molly , i would n't exist . colby : you do n't exist . singer : ¯ what 's it going to be ? ¯ [ scene_break ] adam : i forgot your cheesy fries . krystal : oh . it 's ok . i 'm not really that hungry anyway . what 's wrong , honey ? you 're all flushed . where have you been all this time ? adam : yeah , where i 've been does n't matter . what matters is what i found out . my baby -- i ca n't call her that anymore , can i ? she is n't my baby , is she ? [ scene_break ] tad : it 's no wonder annie took off -- it makes perfect sense . you know , i hate to admit it , but for the first time in his life , i think hayward was telling the truth . julia : back up a minute , tad . something 's wrong . [ scene_break ] annie : i knew something had to be wrong . it -- it just -- it did n't make sense for emma and me not to be a match . ryan : did you -- did you have another test run ? annie : i wanted to , but i was scared . i was scared that terry would somehow find out what i was doing and try to use the test against me . ryan : well , did he ? did he ever find out ? annie : no , but he might as well have . i did n't win full custody , so i ran with emma . i mean , that judge wanted me to share custody with that monster . anyway , i had heard that dr. madden was living in pine valley , so i came to ask him about him , ask some sort of explanation as to why my dna did n't match my daughter 's . but the doctor was gone before i ever got the chance . ryan : did you ever lose consciousness when you were giving birth to emma ? annie : no . i told you my delivery was perfect . i remember the entire thing . ryan : and you say you saw her immediately after you delivered ? annie : ryan , i held her with the umbilical cord still attached . there is no way that dr. madden could 've switched babies on me . ryan : but there is a way that he could 've someone else 's egg , right ? annie : no . there is n't . emma is 100 % my child , body , blood , and soul . [ scene_break ] dixie : look , just because i sympathize with annie does n't mean that i 'm backing off . if emma turns out to be kate , i 'm going to fight like hell to get her back . j.r. : first , we have to find her . dixie : and we will . wo n't we ? god , tell me that i did n't blow it . j.r. : blow what ? dixie : david told me that i should just take emma and run and i said no way . what if he was right ? what if i lost my best chance at getting my daughter back ? [ scene_break ] annie : you do n't believe me . you want me to give emma to tad and dixie . ryan : i stack up all the evidence , but honestly , none of it matters . because i believe you . i believe you . i believe that emma is yours , body , blood , and soul . and i will not let anyone take her from you . annie : thank you so much . ryan : that does n't mean that we 're not going to have a hell of a fight , though , you know that . especially if tad and dixie find out about that dna test . i mean , tad is a hell of a pi . it 's only a matter of time before he figures it out . annie : well , then we 'll have to make sure he ca n't find us . he -- he ca n't take emma if he ca n't find her . ryan : well , you ca n't run forever and hide forever , annie , but you can prove that emma is not biologically theirs . i mean , that 's the way to go here . we run another dna test -- tad and dixie 's against emma 's . and if there 's no match , you 're home free . [ scene_break ] jonathan : aidan , make them back off . it was bad enough when annie had to worry about losing her daughter to that pervert , terry . now your friends are threatening to take emma away from her ? no . make them back off . aidan : i 'm afraid i ca n't do that , jonathan . jonathan : do n't you tell me that you 're buying into hayward 's lies , too . aidan : i 'm not convinced they are lies . if annie had nothing to hide , then why did she run ? jonathan : she ran because dixie cornered her girl in a playgroup . why are you really doing this ? is it -- what , some sense of loyalty to your -- to your friend ? to your partner ? or somebody put a big chunk of cash in your pocket to terrorize an innocent woman and her child ? di : aidan is not doing this for money , jonathan . he is trying to find emma , because there is a real chance that -- that she is dixie and tad 's daughter . and if she is , then they have a right to be her parents . both of them . [ scene_break ] dixie : maybe if i had listened to david , i might have my little girl in my arms right now . j.r. : i know how bad you want kate back , mom . but trust me , kidnapping is not the best way to make that happen . you were just acquitted of murder . if emma happens to be kate , you 're going to want to have a full life with her . you do n't want to get locked up again for snatching a child . dixie : thank you . if i never see her again -- j.r. : but you will . tad 's working on this , and aidan 's helping him . they 're going to track annie down , and they 're going to get the answers that you need . you just got to trust tad right now . what ? what 's that look for ? dixie : nothing , it 's just the way you 're talking about tad after what he did at the trial . i never thought you 'd say anything good about him again . j.r. : i know , mom . i know how far tad went to save you . i know how far he went to find kate . and after going to the extremes to try to bring my sister home and having it blow up in his face , there 's no way in hell tad 's giving up now . [ scene_break ] tad : what do you mean , something 's wrong ? annie and emma are n't a match . it 's right there . julia : ok . if annie knew that she was n't emma 's biological mother -- if she was adopted , for instance , then she would know that they had no biological relationship . why run a dna test ? tad : you 're right . that does n't make sense . which is par for the course . because it seems like every single time i get a glimmer of hope , something else jumps up and kicks me in the face . julia : no , do n't give up yet . it is still possible that emma is kate . greg madden is involved . anything is possible . but what we need to figure out is why would annie order a dna test at all .

[ robin scoffs ] patrick : no one 's going to know how their life is going to end up at 20 years old . no one would have told me that i was going to be a father . going home to emma is the best part of my day . i could watch her breathe for hours on end . lisa : so you stayed for emma . and you were afraid to tell robin that you were unhappy because you knew she 'd flip out and try and keep you from your daughter . robin : is that a question ? lisa : if your home life is so perfect ... why were you spending so much time with me ? patrick : because we were hanging out . and we used to be friends and i thought we were catching up . but you know what , i was giving you mixed signals . lisa : tell the truth , patrick drake , because you are under oath , or be held in contempt .

[ scene_break ] edmund : slater 's a lying bastard who should be in prison . erica : i did n't realize that trying to steal a man 's wife was a criminal offense these days . edmund : erica , listen to me , slater arranged to have ryan lavery shot . he 's also probably behind the disappearance of the one eyewitness who could nail him for it -- your buddy in vegas at the time , bobby warner . erica : if bobby warner knew that zach was responsible for ryan 's shooting , why did n't he step forward ? edmund : well , because that would 've messed up his little blackmail scam . slater found out about it , had him beat up , put in the hospital , fired him , and god knows what after that . erica : so you think the police have arrested the wrong man ? you think ethan is innocent ? edmund : if you look closely , erica , you 'll find that slater is behind everything ugly that has happened in this town . the man has to pay for what he 's done . erica : tell me , edmund , what exactly are the sentencing guidelines for cuckolding you ? edmund : this was a mistake . erica : no , wait , edmund . that was low , even for me . how can i help ? [ scene_break ] aidan : maggie , you 're about to commit to this guy for the rest of your life . the least you can do is get all the facts you can . i mean , you 're not going to go out and buy a car without getting it checked out by a mechanic first , are you ? i mean , just because it all looks great on the outside and looks all polished and stuff , it might be rotting on the inside . maggie : aidan , you 're talking about cars . we 're people and this is my heart that we are speaking about . aidan : i know , and people that care about want to see you give it to someone that will take care of it . listen , when i heard that jonathan hit you -- maggie : i explained to you about that . aidan : i know . it was just one time , it 'll never happen again . listen , call me old - fashioned , but i was always taught that women should be treasured and protected and that if you 're angry , you know , you punch a wall or you go down to the gym and take it out on some weights and a punching bag or whatever . maggie : and you do n't think that jonathan knows that ? aidan : well , looks like he forgot . listen , anita 's going to be over here in a minute , and she 's going to bring someone with her . please do me a favor -- listen to what she has to say .

[ scene_break ] jonathan : i do n't know where that came from . i thought that was done . ryan : look , it 's just you and me this time , all right ? hey . whatever the answer is , i can hear it . i want to hear it . jonathan : no , ryan , i did n't drug your wife . i will confess this , though -- i do n't like her too much . i think she 's threatened by how close we are . even as half brothers , we have all this history . yeah , i get angry , obviously . angry like that ? no , ryan , no way . ryan : ok . jonathan : that 's it ? `` ok `` ? ryan : hey , listen , somebody pushes my wife into the twilight zone , i ca n't take anything for granted . jonathan : is this going to keep coming back at me ? because i 've admitted to you i have an anger problem . i told you i 'm going to go get help for it . how do you draw a straight line from that to someone slipping drugs to your wife ? ryan : there is no straight line . jonathan : because there 's a huge difference , ryan , between someone who loses it in a bad moment and someone who slowly tortures a woman out of her mind . this person slowly watched greenlee disintegrate a piece at a time . now , i need to know , do you think i 'm that sick ? ryan : i told you that your word was good enough . i just had to hear you say it to me one on one . end of conversation , end of topic . all right , now back to business . listen , what do you think about the motorcycle -- jonathan : no ! that 's not the end of this conversation .

[ scene_break ] jonathan : none of this is over until we find out who was hurting greenlee , because as long as there 's a question , you 're going to -- greenlee is going to think i 'm the one who was spiking her punch . ryan : i told you that your word is good enough , jonathan . jonathan : it obviously was n't if you had to ask me twice . do n't do this to me , ryan . please , man . what matters to you matters to me . or do n't you believe that now , either ? this looks all too familiar . you sound and look like dad . ryan : hey -- that is hitting below the belt . jonathan : remember how many times you swore that it was n't you who left dishes in the sink or the front door open ? he would n't believe you . he 'd make the accusation , he 'd point the finger , and he 'd take the belt off . so what do you want to do right now , ryan ? do you want to take the belt off ? ryan : no . jonathan : because as long as greenlee thinks i 'm suspect number one , i 'm no better off ! there 's not a scrap of evidence against me , but does anyone care ? she 's got you convinced that -- damn it . i 'm sorry . i 'm so sorry . i 'm sorry , ryan . ryan : for what ? jonathan : because i 'm sure somewhere along the way that this is my fault . i mean , i let my insecurities take over , and i treated greenlee like an enemy . i ca n't blame her for hating me . ryan : greenlee is not your enemy , jonathan . jonathan : i should 've been watching out for her . she 's family . she 's married to my best friend . why do i always figure these things out too late ? ryan : hey , it 's not too late . you 're my brother and i love you , and i love greenlee , and i 'm going to figure out who did this to her , and the two of you can put all this stuff behind you . jonathan : i want that , ryan . i 'm not a bad guy , man . i swear .

[ scene_break ] lorraine : what a line to lay on someone , huh ? jonathan got me to tell him exactly how many butterflies in my stomach i thought love was . then he turned it around and , big surprise , that 's exactly how he felt . maggie 's voice : yes . loving someone makes you feel like you can say yes to the world . you know , you can do anything , you can try anything . jonathan : i 've had these feelings that you 're describing . maggie : but you said that you did n't before . jonathan : i -- i did n't know . i did n't know . i mean , i did n't know , i could n't be sure , but i 've had those feelings that you 're describing . it 's just for me , yes , yes , yes . it 's a really hard thing to say . maggie : then who was the girl ? jonathan : you . i 'm starting to have these feelings for you . lorraine : he can really suck you in . one night , we were walking home on this bridge , and i was nervous , but i brought up his temper and the jealousy , and he freaked . he got up on the edge of the bridge and told me to push him off if i was going to leave him . jonathan : why do n't you just push me off the roof right now ? lorraine : someone says they 'd rather die than live without you , it sounds romantic , but it 's not . it 's manipulative and it 's controlling , and it 's really hard to ever trust anyone again . anyway , you needed to know this . the rest is up to you . i have to catch my train back to new york . anita : lorraine , thank you so much for coming . lorraine : i hate to see someone else 's life get screwed up . aidan : i 'll walk you out . lorraine : you know what ? that 's ok , i 'll get a taxi . i think maggie needs you more than i do . if you do decide to end it , be careful . that 's when he can get really ugly .

[ scene_break ] myrtle : of course , i could tell you to follow your heart , but that 's such a tired , old cliché . why do n't you -- why do n't you just follow your gut ? i mean , let 's face it , let 's face it , you are a kane , and you 've got the kane survival stuff in your dna . you know what you have to do ? make yourself happy , and you 'll make miranda happy . bianca : i thought it was n't that simple . myrtle : well , you could wait and see . at least one thing do n't forget -- you are the light of my life , and i ca n't think of a girl in the world who deserves happiness more than you do . [ scene_break ] jonathan : go away . kendall : nope , not until you 've heard me out . jonathan : i 'm going to lose my breakfast . kendall : no , no , no , this is the good part . i 've thought a lot about what 's gone down . i blame you , you blame me . it got ugly . jonathan : oh , now it 's all sunshine and gumballs . kendall : here 's a concept for you -- what if we 're both wrong ? what if we 're actually among the blameless in this whole mess ? it 's been a very wacky , bizarre few months , and i admit -- i admit , i 'm the first one to admit i 've been known to jump the gun . jonathan : interesting choice of words . kendall : well , i get caught up in my own imagination . sometimes i act before i think . you know how that goes , right ? it 's kind of how we met . we started out with a whole lot of potential . jonathan : well , the sex was hot . kendall : yeah , so how about we end this feud ? we are much better off as a team than at each other 's throats . jonathan : i 've already got a woman i 'm very happy with , kendall , but thank you . kendall : no . no , no , no , no . what i meant is if we 'd just stop lobbing grenades at each other , maybe we could find out who drugged greenlee . come on , jonathan , there is something in this for both of us . this is the only way for people to think neither of us did it . jonathan : nice try , kendall . kendall : well , if you have a better idea , i am open to suggestions . jonathan : it would n't involve working with you , but well - played . nice attempt at trying to infiltrate the enemy camp . i give you an a for effort . now get out of my face .

ivy : now you 've seen it with your own eyes . steffy hit aly . it was murder , liam . liam : that 's not true . it was -- it was self - defense . ivy : self - defense against what ? aly was just standing there , doing nothing . what , do i have to play you the video again ? liam : yes . please . ivy : look , just -- [ scoffs ] steffy can claim self - defense all she wants , but this video shows exactly what happened . steffy killed aly , liam , and she does n't even care . steffy : [ gasps ] [ gasps ] [ breathing heavily ] caroline : okay . i have a lot of questions , um , because i - i thought that aly died because she fell and hit her head . thomas : true . caroline : but you just said that steffy hit her with a tire iron . thomas : in self - defense . caroline : okay . and now ivy recorded it , and -- and so ... [ sighs ] okay , i do n't know . i guess that 's good , because the whole confrontation is on video , so ... thomas : video does n't always show the whole story . caroline : what do you mean ? thomas : it 's unclear . it 's subject to interpretation . that 's not true . it 's incredibly damning . caroline : like what ? like -- like ... steffy deliberately killed aly and -- and now ivy is holding this video over steffy 's head ? thomas : you know ivy 's sudden interest to become the new face of forrester ? caroline : wow . thomas : you ca n't tell any of this , especially not to my father . caroline : i -- ridge is gon na want to know if steffy 's in some kind of trouble , and he 's gon na want to be there for her . thomas : i 'll protect my sister , all right ? i 'm not gon na let her get railroaded into paying for something she did n't do . but [ sighs ] caroline , she 's not the only woman i 'm concerned about . i 'm worried about you , too . caroline : why ? thomas : because you 're involved with my father . katie : you know , i actually have been thinking about you a lot lately -- how different your life is . ridge : it is different . i 'm firing on all cylinders , and then i 've got my young , oh , so young , caroline to come home to . katie : [ chuckles ] listen , i - i know that it 's more than just that . it 's not hard for me to understand why you would fall for her . she 's beautiful , and she 's wonderful . and she 's very happy with you . ridge : she told you that ? katie : she 's also been pretty clear about the fact that she wants a family . so , how do you feel about that ? mm . no answer . i guess i know . caroline : ridge is very good to me . thomas : always is in the beginning . caroline : you 're such a cynic when it comes to him . thomas : i know my father , his patterns . i had a front - row seat to it most of my life . he 'll be going along , everything 's so wonderful , and then , well , there 'll be an issue . caroline : oh , and he 'll just -- he 'll just leave ? thomas : maybe he 'll only wish he did . caroline : ridge and i are very happy . thomas : is being with him everything you 'd hoped for ? come on . i trusted you . return the favor . has he given you everything you want ? wyatt : well , i think it 's safe to say that that video rocked liam 's world . i mean , clearly , he 's wondering why he 's only hearing about it now . ivy : well , it 's because steffy 's only about self - preservation . wyatt : but why keep it from him ? i mean , he 's the protector of women . he 's not gon na go to the cops and turn her in . ivy : well , it just proves that she is n't worthy of it . wyatt : no . ivy : that 's what it does . she clearly does n't trust him , which means she does n't know him , because if she did know him , she 'd know she 'd be able to trust him . wyatt : in other words , she does n't know him like you do . ivy : ugh . wyatt , that 's over . wyatt : what ? i 'm just saying -- i 'm just checking . i do n't know . i mean -- ivy : look ... this is n't about me , okay ? it 's about steffy doing something so reprehensible , criminal , and then not accepting responsibility for it . aly 's dead , and it 's like her life just meant nothing but steffy 's does . you know what ? i 'm actually -- i 'm really happy that liam 's now seen that video , 'cause maybe he 'll see steffy in a brand - new light . [ door opens ] steffy : hi . hi . how did it go ? did you see the video ? liam : i did . steffy : okay . it shows that i was defending myself ... right ? why are n't you saying anything ? liam , you 're starting to freak me out . what ? liam : it 's bad , steffy . it 's really bad . katie : you know , if i 'm prying , just tell me and i 'll stop , but ... you know , caroline has mentioned that she really wants to have children someday . ridge : well , you are prying . and caroline 's young . she 's -- it 's -- katie : so , you 're hoping that she 's just gon na grow out of it ? because in my experience , it does n't really work that way . ridge : she could maybe grow out of it . i do n't mean `` grow out of it , `` but just we 're just starting our life together , you know ? we 're gon na have some adventures -- travel and design and do things -- and maybe she does n't want to give up all that right now . katie : why does she have to ? i mean , as a woman , you do n't have to be barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen . there are lots of options for working women . ridge : whose side are you on ? katie : i 'm not on anyone 's side . you know , when we were together , you said that you would be a father to will . ridge : i meant it . katie : and yet i 'm sensing that you 're not real anxious to start a family with caroline , so ... i 'm just wondering why . caroline : who gets everything they want from anyone ? just even to think that that 's possible is just asking for heartbreak . thomas : voice of experience ? caroline : yeah . i mean , look -- i learned a lot of things from my marriage to rick , and , yes , that is -- that is one of them . thomas : so , would you say that you 're getting 99 % of what you want ? 'cause that 's the least of what you deserve . caroline : okay , fine . th - there 's one thing that we just are n't completely in sync on . thomas : what 's that ? caroline : i ca -- no , i ca n't . i ca n't talk to you about those kinds of things . thomas : well , let me make it easy for you . i 'm guessing it has to do with starting a family or , more likely ... not starting one . ivy : liam is so moral and upstanding , you know ? it really makes me wonder how it 's affecting him , seeing steffy hitting aly like that . wyatt : well , i 'm still stuck and why she has n't told him until now . i mean , what does that even say about their relationship -- that she can keep something this big from him ? ivy : no , no , no . it says that she 's a self - serving liar , that 's what . wyatt : okay . well , i guess there 's that . ivy : steffy committed murder . i know it . she knows it . now liam knows it . how can he morally accept that ? wyatt : my brother 's not a saint . you know that . what trumps morality every time is coming to the rescue or the defense of a woman that he loves . ivy : there is no way liam can condone what 's on that video , wyatt . wyatt : that 's what you 're counting on . steffy : i do n't get it . the video looks bad ? how bad ? liam : like ... hard to watch . steffy : yeah , of course it 's hard to watch . it 's awful . and i feel terrible about this . liam : i know . i know you do . but ... in the video , when you haul off with that tire iron -- steffy : liam , it was self - defense ! how many times do i have to tell you that ? ! aly attacked me ! she was trying to re - enact the same night her mother died . she picked up the tire iron , she swung it , and then she grabbed a rock . liam : that 's the thing . there 's no rock . steffy : what ? what do you mean , there 's no rock ? of course there 's a rock . there was a rock in aly 's hand , and she was gon na crush it on my head . liam : not in the video . steffy : how can that be ? liam : i do n't know . i do n't know . but that 's what we have to figure out , okay ? so , whether there was a rock or there was just a tire iron , it does n't look good , steffy , so ... you got to take me through it one more time . what really happened that night ? ridge : [ sighs ] me not wanting to have a family has nothing to do with my feelings for caroline . just -- i just do n't want to start over , you know ? katie : yeah . i get it . but does caroline ? ridge : i was honest with her . katie : and ... she was okay with that ? ridge : she said she was . i mean , i got to take her at her word . katie : sure . it 's just that sometimes people say the things they think you want to hear . ridge : i know that . i know . all i can do is be honest with her , you know ? and i - i told her what she did n't want to hear -- that i did n't want to complicate our life . i just want to ... have this time together and not share it with anybody and just ... live every moment , enjoy every day . caroline : of course i want to have a family one day . thomas : when ? next year ? five years from now ? caroline : i do n't know . whenever it feels right . thomas : do you think it 's ever gon na feel right for my father ? caroline : obviously you do n't . thomas : have you mentioned it to him ? caroline : yeah , we 've talked about it . thomas : and ... ? caroline : and ... ridge is n't ready . thomas : not ready or not interested ? there 's a difference . caroline : ridge just wants to live right now . i mean , he just wants to be in the moment . thomas : mm . well , that sounds great for him . where does that leave you ? wyatt : i kind of feel bad for liam . ivy : [ scoffs ] wyatt : i mean , i - i remember how shocked i was when i first saw that video . ivy : well , i do n't . wyatt : what ? ivy : i do n't feel badly for liam . why should n't he be aware of the kind of woman he 's involved with ? wyatt : [ sighs ] ivy : come on . he thinks steffy walks on water . well , guess what . she 's far from it . she 's a cold - blooded killer . wyatt : okay , do n't you think that 's just a little extreme , ivy ? ivy : wyatt , come on ! you know what 's on the video . wyatt : yes , i do . ivy : she stole a life . she stole aly 's life . and her life just goes on , rewarded with no consequences . if you really want to feel badly about someone in this situation , think about aly . she 's gone . okay , but i have n't forgotten . wyatt : ivy , okay . i - i know . i know . i know . is this how we want to spend our night ? huh ? talking about other people ? ivy : well , i 'm guessing you have different ideas . wyatt : have i told you how sexy you are when you 're angry ? ivy : [ chuckles ] i 'll show you sexy . wyatt : oh , yeah ? ivy : mm - hmm . wyatt : [ chuckles ] steffy : what do you mean `` what really happened ? `` you do n't think i 'm telling the truth ? liam : come on . i 'm not accusing you of anything . but i am a little confused . steffy : i told you everything . liam : [ sighs ] yes . but you did say that it 's coming back gradually . right ? it 's coming back in pieces . so , i do n't know , steffy . maybe if -- if you go over it one more time , then you 'll remember something , some -- some detail that makes all the difference . steffy : i do n't want to do that . i do n't want to relive it again . you do n't -- you do n't know . liam : i know . i know . i know . but it 's important . it 's really important . come on . steffy : okay . okay . [ sighs ] liam : go ahead . steffy : okay , um ... i was in my car . i was driving down pch , and then , out of nowhere , i - i got a flat tire . so , i - i pulled over to change it . and then , out of nowhere , there were these headlights coming towards me . it was aly . aly was driving the car . so , we started to argue , and out of nowhere , she grabbed a tire iron , and -- and she tried to attack me with it . liam : now , when did she pick up the rock ? is that when she picked up the rock ? steffy : yes . yes , yes , that 's when she -- yeah . liam : and what hand was the rock in ? steffy : it was in her right hand . [ voice breaking ] and she -- she had the -- she had the rock , and then she was gon na crush it on top of me , so i -- so i took the tire iron , and i swung it to protect myself . and then she fell , and she hit her head on a rock . [ breathing shakily ] look , i - i do n't -- i do n't have all the bits and pieces , okay ? but ... i would never , ever , ever , ever kill my cousin deliberately . [ crying ] look , if you do n't -- if you do n't want to be with me , i get it . i 'm ... liam : what ? ! are you kidding me ? steffy , i 'm not going anywhere , okay ? i know you , and you defend yourself when you feel threatened . it 's instinctive . steffy : even after seeing the video , you believe me ? liam : of course , i do . steffy : oh , my god . you have no idea how much that means to me . liam : come here . steffy : you have no idea . thomas : you and i were n't together long , but i got a sense of what drives you , your dreams , your ambition . you should have all of that , caroline , instead of -- instead of dimming your light for my father . caroline : uh , that is not how it is at all . thomas : really ? because it seems like you 're doing all the sacrificing while my father lives his moments . ridge forrester does n't want a family . because it 's all about him . i - i 'm not -- i 'm not trying to upset you or put you on the spot . i just know my father . i do n't want to see you hurt . wyatt : i like this . i like you . even if you are a million miles away right now . ivy : no . no . how can you say that after what just happened ? wyatt : oh , you were definitely here for that . ivy : [ chuckles ] wyatt : that -- that is for sure . ivy : i 'm sorry . i just -- i slipped away for a minute there . wyatt : you 're wondering what 's happening with steffy and liam ? ivy : well , my bet is it 's nothing like this . wyatt : oh , yeah . ivy : [ chuckles ] steffy : it means so much that you believe me . liam : well -- [ chuckles ] well , what am i supposed to think ? that you morphed into a cold - blooded killer one night ? that 's absurd , steffy . steffy : no matter what ivy says ? liam : [ sighs ] ivy -- ivy 's not objective right now , and neither is wyatt . they 're -- they 're lashing out at us for being with each other instead of them . steffy : yeah . liam : but we do have this video now . steffy : i should have told you everything as soon as i remembered . ivy has the video now . and you 're right . she can hurt me and get justice for aly at the same time . liam : yeah , well , i 'm not gon na let that happen . i do n't -- i do n't care . i do n't care what the video shows . i know that you 're innocent . and i 'm not gon na let ivy use it as a tool to ruin your life just because she 's mad . but we do have to be realistic . this is a , uh -- this is a very serious problem . steffy : what are we gon na do ? liam : whatever it takes . whatever it takes to make sure nobody ever sees that video . wyatt : nope . no way . that is it . you lost your phone privileges . give me the phone . give me the phone . ivy : wyatt ... wyatt : put it down . there you go . is n't that so much better ? so much lighter , you know ? ivy : [ chuckles ] mm - hmm . wyatt : mm - hmm . lunch meeting ? | ivy tells liam that he has seen it for himself . he has seen the video and it was murder . steffy can cry self defense all she wants , but aly was just standing there doing nothing and steffy tried to kill her . she tried to kill her and does n't even care . liam disagrees . caroline is aghast that thomas is saying the night was videoed by ivy and the interpretation is open for discussion . but he is not going to let his sister get railroaded for something she did not do intentionally . there was a tire iron and steffy used that in her defense . also a rock was involved and aly fell and hit her head on . and is n't it rich that ivy now wants to be the new face of fc . thomas warns caroline to keep this to herself , but especially not to tell his father . and steffy is not the only woman he is worried about . there is caroline too because she is with his father . he 's not cynic but has had a front row seat most of his life with the way his father operates around women . katie tells ridge that she is not surprised that he wants caroline . she is young and beautiful and certainly in love with him . but she knows she wants children so how is ridge going to be with that . he says they are just now starting their life together and maybe she will not want to give up all of that to start a family . katie is not sure she will outgrow that desire . thomas tells caroline that he confided in her , now she can return the favor . is she completely happy with his dad . she tries to skirt around it but he pushes and he finally asks if she wants to start a family and perhaps his dad does n't . he hates to see his dad put her on the spot . he is sure his dad does not want another family and he does not want to see her being hurt because of that . ivy tells wyatt that she is glad that liam has now seen the video as now maybe he will see steffy in a brand new light . she knows steffy committed murder and steffy knows it . she does not think there is any way that liam can condone what he saw . it is criminal and steffy should feel responsible . | <s>[INST] ivy : now you 've seen it with your own eyes . steffy hit aly . it was murder , liam . liam : that 's not true . it was -- it was self - defense . ivy : self - defense against what ? aly was just standing there , doing nothing . what , do i have to play you the video again ? liam : yes . please . ivy : look , just -- [ scoffs ] steffy can claim self - defense all she wants , but this video shows exactly what happened . steffy killed aly , liam , and she does n't even care . steffy : [ gasps ] [ gasps ] [ breathing heavily ] caroline : okay . i have a lot of questions , um , because i - i thought that aly died because she fell and hit her head . thomas : true . caroline : but you just said that steffy hit her with a tire iron . thomas : in self - defense . caroline : okay . and now ivy recorded it , and -- and so ... [ sighs ] okay , i do n't know . i guess that 's good , because the whole confrontation is on video , so ... thomas : video does n't always show the whole story . caroline : what do you mean ? thomas : it 's unclear . it 's subject to interpretation . that 's not true . it 's incredibly damning . caroline : like what ? like -- like ... steffy deliberately killed aly and -- and now ivy is holding this video over steffy 's head ? thomas : you know ivy 's sudden interest to become the new face of forrester ? caroline : wow . thomas : you ca n't tell any of this , especially not to my father . caroline : i -- ridge is gon na want to know if steffy 's in some kind of trouble , and he 's gon na want to be there for her . thomas : i 'll protect my sister , all right ? i 'm not gon na let her get railroaded into paying for something she did n't do . but [ sighs ] caroline , she 's not the only woman i 'm concerned about . i 'm worried about you , too . caroline : why ? thomas : because you 're involved with my father . katie : you know , i actually have been thinking about you a lot lately -- how different your life is . ridge : it is different . i 'm firing on all cylinders , and then i 've got my young , oh , so young , caroline to come home to . katie : [ chuckles ] listen , i - i know that it 's more than just that . it 's not hard for me to understand why you would fall for her . she 's beautiful , and she 's wonderful . and she 's very happy with you . ridge : she told you that ? katie : she 's also been pretty clear about the fact that she wants a family . so , how do you feel about that ? mm . no answer . i guess i know . caroline : ridge is very good to me . thomas : always is in the beginning . caroline : you 're such a cynic when it comes to him . thomas : i know my father , his patterns . i had a front - row seat to it most of my life . he 'll be going along , everything 's so wonderful , and then , well , there 'll be an issue . caroline : oh , and he 'll just -- he 'll just leave ? thomas : maybe he 'll only wish he did . caroline : ridge and i are very happy . thomas : is being with him everything you 'd hoped for ? come on . i trusted you . return the favor . has he given you everything you want ? wyatt : well , i think it 's safe to say that that video rocked liam 's world . i mean , clearly , he 's wondering why he 's only hearing about it now . ivy : well , it 's because steffy 's only about self - preservation . wyatt : but why keep it from him ? i mean , he 's the protector of women . he 's not gon na go to the cops and turn her in . ivy : well , it just proves that she is n't worthy of it . wyatt : no . ivy : that 's what it does . she clearly does n't trust him , which means she does n't know him , because if she did know him , she 'd know she 'd be able to trust him . wyatt : in other words , she does n't know him like you do . ivy : ugh . wyatt , that 's over . wyatt : what ? i 'm just saying -- i 'm just checking . i do n't know . i mean -- ivy : look ... this is n't about me , okay ? it 's about steffy doing something so reprehensible , criminal , and then not accepting responsibility for it . aly 's dead , and it 's like her life just meant nothing but steffy 's does . you know what ? i 'm actually -- i 'm really happy that liam 's now seen that video , 'cause maybe he 'll see steffy in a brand - new light . [ door opens ] steffy : hi . hi . how did it go ? did you see the video ? liam : i did . steffy : okay . it shows that i was defending myself ... right ? why are n't you saying anything ? liam , you 're starting to freak me out . what ? liam : it 's bad , steffy . it 's really bad . katie : you know , if i 'm prying , just tell me and i 'll stop , but ... you know , caroline has mentioned that she really wants to have children someday . ridge : well , you are prying . and caroline 's young . she 's -- it 's -- katie : so , you 're hoping that she 's just gon na grow out of it ? because in my experience , it does n't really work that way . ridge : she could maybe grow out of it . i do n't mean `` grow out of it , `` but just we 're just starting our life together , you know ? we 're gon na have some adventures -- travel and design and do things -- and maybe she does n't want to give up all that right now . katie : why does she have to ? i mean , as a woman , you do n't have to be barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen . there are lots of options for working women . ridge : whose side are you on ? katie : i 'm not on anyone 's side . you know , when we were together , you said that you would be a father to will . ridge : i meant it . katie : and yet i 'm sensing that you 're not real anxious to start a family with caroline , so ... i 'm just wondering why . caroline : who gets everything they want from anyone ? just even to think that that 's possible is just asking for heartbreak . thomas : voice of experience ? caroline : yeah . i mean , look -- i learned a lot of things from my marriage to rick , and , yes , that is -- that is one of them . thomas : so , would you say that you 're getting 99 % of what you want ? 'cause that 's the least of what you deserve . caroline : okay , fine . th - there 's one thing that we just are n't completely in sync on . thomas : what 's that ? caroline : i ca -- no , i ca n't . i ca n't talk to you about those kinds of things . thomas : well , let me make it easy for you . i 'm guessing it has to do with starting a family or , more likely ... not starting one . ivy : liam is so moral and upstanding , you know ? it really makes me wonder how it 's affecting him , seeing steffy hitting aly like that . wyatt : well , i 'm still stuck and why she has n't told him until now . i mean , what does that even say about their relationship -- that she can keep something this big from him ? ivy : no , no , no . it says that she 's a self - serving liar , that 's what . wyatt : okay . well , i guess there 's that . ivy : steffy committed murder . i know it . she knows it . now liam knows it . how can he morally accept that ? wyatt : my brother 's not a saint . you know that . what trumps morality every time is coming to the rescue or the defense of a woman that he loves . ivy : there is no way liam can condone what 's on that video , wyatt . wyatt : that 's what you 're counting on . steffy : i do n't get it . the video looks bad ? how bad ? liam : like ... hard to watch . steffy : yeah , of course it 's hard to watch . it 's awful . and i feel terrible about this . liam : i know . i know you do . but ... in the video , when you haul off with that tire iron -- steffy : liam , it was self - defense ! how many times do i have to tell you that ? ! aly attacked me ! she was trying to re - enact the same night her mother died . she picked up the tire iron , she swung it , and then she grabbed a rock . liam : that 's the thing . there 's no rock . steffy : what ? what do you mean , there 's no rock ? of course there 's a rock . there was a rock in aly 's hand , and she was gon na crush it on my head . liam : not in the video . steffy : how can that be ? liam : i do n't know . i do n't know . but that 's what we have to figure out , okay ? so , whether there was a rock or there was just a tire iron , it does n't look good , steffy , so ... you got to take me through it one more time . what really happened that night ? ridge : [ sighs ] me not wanting to have a family has nothing to do with my feelings for caroline . just -- i just do n't want to start over , you know ? katie : yeah . i get it . but does caroline ? ridge : i was honest with her . katie : and ... she was okay with that ? ridge : she said she was . i mean , i got to take her at her word . katie : sure . it 's just that sometimes people say the things they think you want to hear . ridge : i know that . i know . all i can do is be honest with her , you know ? and i - i told her what she did n't want to hear -- that i did n't want to complicate our life . i just want to ... have this time together and not share it with anybody and just ... live every moment , enjoy every day . caroline : of course i want to have a family one day . thomas : when ? next year ? five years from now ? caroline : i do n't know . whenever it feels right . thomas : do you think it 's ever gon na feel right for my father ? caroline : obviously you do n't . thomas : have you mentioned it to him ? caroline : yeah , we 've talked about it . thomas : and ... ? caroline : and ... ridge is n't ready . thomas : not ready or not interested ? there 's a difference . caroline : ridge just wants to live right now . i mean , he just wants to be in the moment . thomas : mm . well , that sounds great for him . where does that leave you ? wyatt : i kind of feel bad for liam . ivy : [ scoffs ] wyatt : i mean , i - i remember how shocked i was when i first saw that video . ivy : well , i do n't . wyatt : what ? ivy : i do n't feel badly for liam . why should n't he be aware of the kind of woman he 's involved with ? wyatt : [ sighs ] ivy : come on . he thinks steffy walks on water . well , guess what . she 's far from it . she 's a cold - blooded killer . wyatt : okay , do n't you think that 's just a little extreme , ivy ? ivy : wyatt , come on ! you know what 's on the video . wyatt : yes , i do . ivy : she stole a life . she stole aly 's life . and her life just goes on , rewarded with no consequences . if you really want to feel badly about someone in this situation , think about aly . she 's gone . okay , but i have n't forgotten . wyatt : ivy , okay . i - i know . i know . i know . is this how we want to spend our night ? huh ? talking about other people ? ivy : well , i 'm guessing you have different ideas . wyatt : have i told you how sexy you are when you 're angry ? ivy : [ chuckles ] i 'll show you sexy . wyatt : oh , yeah ? ivy : mm - hmm . wyatt : [ chuckles ] steffy : what do you mean `` what really happened ? `` you do n't think i 'm telling the truth ? liam : come on . i 'm not accusing you of anything . but i am a little confused . steffy : i told you everything . liam : [ sighs ] yes . but you did say that it 's coming back gradually . right ? it 's coming back in pieces . so , i do n't know , steffy . maybe if -- if you go over it one more time , then you 'll remember something , some -- some detail that makes all the difference . steffy : i do n't want to do that . i do n't want to relive it again . you do n't -- you do n't know . liam : i know . i know . i know . but it 's important . it 's really important . come on . steffy : okay . okay . [ sighs ] liam : go ahead . steffy : okay , um ... i was in my car . i was driving down pch , and then , out of nowhere , i - i got a flat tire . so , i - i pulled over to change it . and then , out of nowhere , there were these headlights coming towards me . it was aly . aly was driving the car . so , we started to argue , and out of nowhere , she grabbed a tire iron , and -- and she tried to attack me with it . liam : now , when did she pick up the rock ? is that when she picked up the rock ? steffy : yes . yes , yes , that 's when she -- yeah . liam : and what hand was the rock in ? steffy : it was in her right hand . [ voice breaking ] and she -- she had the -- she had the rock , and then she was gon na crush it on top of me , so i -- so i took the tire iron , and i swung it to protect myself . and then she fell , and she hit her head on a rock . [ breathing shakily ] look , i - i do n't -- i do n't have all the bits and pieces , okay ? but ... i would never , ever , ever , ever kill my cousin deliberately . [ crying ] look , if you do n't -- if you do n't want to be with me , i get it . i 'm ... liam : what ? ! are you kidding me ? steffy , i 'm not going anywhere , okay ? i know you , and you defend yourself when you feel threatened . it 's instinctive . steffy : even after seeing the video , you believe me ? liam : of course , i do . steffy : oh , my god . you have no idea how much that means to me . liam : come here . steffy : you have no idea . thomas : you and i were n't together long , but i got a sense of what drives you , your dreams , your ambition . you should have all of that , caroline , instead of -- instead of dimming your light for my father . caroline : uh , that is not how it is at all . thomas : really ? because it seems like you 're doing all the sacrificing while my father lives his moments . ridge forrester does n't want a family . because it 's all about him . i - i 'm not -- i 'm not trying to upset you or put you on the spot . i just know my father . i do n't want to see you hurt . wyatt : i like this . i like you . even if you are a million miles away right now . ivy : no . no . how can you say that after what just happened ? wyatt : oh , you were definitely here for that . ivy : [ chuckles ] wyatt : that -- that is for sure . ivy : i 'm sorry . i just -- i slipped away for a minute there . wyatt : you 're wondering what 's happening with steffy and liam ? ivy : well , my bet is it 's nothing like this . wyatt : oh , yeah . ivy : [ chuckles ] steffy : it means so much that you believe me . liam : well -- [ chuckles ] well , what am i supposed to think ? that you morphed into a cold - blooded killer one night ? that 's absurd , steffy . steffy : no matter what ivy says ? liam : [ sighs ] ivy -- ivy 's not objective right now , and neither is wyatt . they 're -- they 're lashing out at us for being with each other instead of them . steffy : yeah . liam : but we do have this video now . steffy : i should have told you everything as soon as i remembered . ivy has the video now . and you 're right . she can hurt me and get justice for aly at the same time . liam : yeah , well , i 'm not gon na let that happen . i do n't -- i do n't care . i do n't care what the video shows . i know that you 're innocent . and i 'm not gon na let ivy use it as a tool to ruin your life just because she 's mad . but we do have to be realistic . this is a , uh -- this is a very serious problem . steffy : what are we gon na do ? liam : whatever it takes . whatever it takes to make sure nobody ever sees that video . wyatt : nope . no way . that is it . you lost your phone privileges . give me the phone . give me the phone . ivy : wyatt ... wyatt : put it down . there you go . is n't that so much better ? so much lighter , you know ? ivy : [ chuckles ] mm - hmm . wyatt : mm - hmm . lunch meeting ?Summarize.[/INST]ivy tells liam that he has seen it for himself . he has seen the video and it was murder . steffy can cry self defense all she wants , but aly was just standing there doing nothing and steffy tried to kill her . she tried to kill her and does n't even care . liam disagrees . caroline is aghast that thomas is saying the night was videoed by ivy and the interpretation is open for discussion . but he is not going to let his sister get railroaded for something she did not do intentionally . there was a tire iron and steffy used that in her defense . also a rock was involved and aly fell and hit her head on . and is n't it rich that ivy now wants to be the new face of fc . thomas warns caroline to keep this to herself , but especially not to tell his father . and steffy is not the only woman he is worried about . there is caroline too because she is with his father . he 's not cynic but has had a front row seat most of his life with the way his father operates around women . katie tells ridge that she is not surprised that he wants caroline . she is young and beautiful and certainly in love with him . but she knows she wants children so how is ridge going to be with that . he says they are just now starting their life together and maybe she will not want to give up all of that to start a family . katie is not sure she will outgrow that desire . thomas tells caroline that he confided in her , now she can return the favor . is she completely happy with his dad . she tries to skirt around it but he pushes and he finally asks if she wants to start a family and perhaps his dad does n't . he hates to see his dad put her on the spot . he is sure his dad does not want another family and he does not want to see her being hurt because of that . ivy tells wyatt that she is glad that liam has now seen the video as now maybe he will see steffy in a brand new light . she knows steffy committed murder and steffy knows it . she does not think there is any way that liam can condone what he saw . it is criminal and steffy should feel responsible .</s> | 482 |

[ knocking continues ] chelsea : coming ! coming ! nick : where 's adam ? hey ! get down here ! where is he ? chelsea : adam 's not home . what 's wrong ? what happened ? nick : sage left that letter for adam . i want to know what was in it . adam : that is not happy to see me . i 'm guessing things did n't go quite as planned with you and the good doctor . call me a liar , hmm ? victor : what plan are you talking about ? adam : i 'm talking about your new best friend who just happens to be the daughter of a judge . but not just any judge , right ? the judge that 's in charge of pardons and paroles . i mean , come on , man . that 's , like , serendipity . you 're impressive . you are -- you are something else the way you 're able to just reel people in , you read them the way that you do . it 's a gift , really . figure out what their weaknesses are , and you just -- you just latch on , right ? i mean , it sucks for you that it did n't work , though . victor : i mean , if you did n't think it worked , then why did you come here , to gloat ? adam : no . no , no , no . not to gloat . i did n't mean to come off that way . i 'm here to put you on notice that whatever you do to try to attempt to get out of here early , i 'm gon na block it . victor : you go ahead and try that . michael : mm . what was that for ? lauren : you married me , baby . michael : i 'm a genius . touché . lauren : you are . i have , uh , very exciting news . michael : i can tell by the way your eyes are sparkling . lauren : yeah . these eyes have been very busy . michael : doing what ? lauren : your law license . michael : oh , my suspended law license . lauren : aha , but suspended is not the same as disbarred . and after a period of time , you can file for reinstatement . i just came from the law library at the gcu , and i 've been digging up records of wisconsin attorneys who got suspended and got their licenses back . and the fascinating thing is the ones that filed successful appeals had very , very similar approaches . michael : all right . let me stop you right there . i love that you went to the trouble . but i already know all this . lauren : then why have n't you done anything about it ? mariah : i know that something 's going on with you . it 's obvious . when i asked if i could move back in , i could tell that you were n't thrilled with the idea , and now i 'm starting to think it 's because you did n't want me to find out what you were hiding . sharon : no . no , no , no , no . that 's not true . mariah : sharon , it 's me . i am on your side . have n't i proven that ? did n't i keep my mouth shut about the miscarriage , even though i thought it was a terrible idea that you were n't telling dylan ? sharon : you said you would never bring that up again . mariah : nobody else is here . the place is n't bugged . why ... wait a second . did sage find out ? sharon : no . no . that 's not it . mariah : sharon , dylan loves you . if it ever came out , he would understand . sharon : it can not come out , okay ? you can never tell him . mariah , promise me . mariah : fine . fine . i promise . but you ca n't keep telling lies . they always come back to bite you , if you have n't figured that out by now . i am really worried about you . if you do n't talk to somebody , i 'm afraid that you 're gon na have another breakdown . did you end up finding a new therapist ? sharon : i 'm -- i 'm looking . mariah : okay . well , then that leaves me or dylan . you know that you can trust him , right ? he loves you like crazy , and he knows what it 's like to come a little unhinged . if you do n't feel like you can talk to me , then please tell me that you 'll try talking to him . sharon : i - i - i ca n't . i ca n't . mariah : why not ? because i ... mariah : sharon . come on ! sharon : it 's sully . mariah : sully ? what about sully ? dylan : i think being around sully helped sage a lot . i mean , i think you -- you explained it the best . it just helped her heal after -- after she lost christian . nikki : yeah . nicholas mentioned that a number of times . i know he was very grateful to you and sharon for sharing your son that way . and it really was very generous of you . dylan : sage was a different person around you , huh , buddy ? she was so peaceful . i think she felt like she could finally let go of things that were holding her back . nikki : yeah . like your poor brother . nicholas has lost so much , more than what most people could bear . dylan : i know . but if it makes you breathe any easier , he seemed better when i saw him earlier . he stopped by . nikki : he did ? he came by for a visit ? dylan : he did . he came by to see faith . you know , it got to the point where it was very hard for him to be around her because he could n't put on a good face anymore and pretend everything was okay . and ... you know , that 's why faith was staying with us . but i will say this . i think it is a good sign that nick wanted to see her . nikki : okay . i hope you 're right . hopefully , he 's ready to move out of that dark place and ... go on with his life . chelsea : that was sage 's private letter to adam . i have no idea what it said . nick : you 're his wife , chelsea . i 'm supposed to believe that he never showed it to you ? chelsea : he never showed it to me , nick . and i never asked . nick : and you never discussed it ? chelsea : no . we did n't discuss it . what ? what happened ? why are you so upset ? nick : it 's just sage 's journal . i would see her writing in it at night . she kept it pretty private . you know , now that she 's gone , i thought that it might make me feel closer to her if i read it . chelsea : oh . uh , well -- well , i hope it did . nick : yeah , it did until i got to the part where adam became a part of her life . what he did -- adam 's capable of a lot of things , but this is unforgivable . dylan : so , you were , uh , starting to tell me about victor . nikki : oh . i should n't . it just upsets me . makes me think about how he 's still manipulating everybody as if he had n't even left home . how is that even possible ? dylan : uh , he 's got a lot of time on his hands . nikki : yeah , and he 's using it to plot revenge , making sure adam lost that job in chicago , selling newman cosmetics right out from underneath victoria , and then sending that prison doctor to sage 's memorial service . dylan : yeah , that was a little strange . nikki : [ scoffs ] she is being so manipulated by victor , and she has no idea . get this . her father is a judge , the kind that makes decisions about paroles and pardons . dylan : ah . victor 's working her to get an early release . nikki : yes , obviously . i - i mean , sending her as his ambassador -- that is such a classic victor move . no matter what the situation is , he must assert his will , control , control , control . i fought with him and fought with him for years about this , and there has been no change . and then i end up doing things i should n't do just out of sheer frustration . dylan : like what ? nikki : last night -- perfect example . i got so rattled talking to this dr. gates woman that i ordered a martini , and i damn near drank it . dylan : but you did n't . nikki : i did n't because jack was there to stop me before i could take a first sip . but it 's just the thought of victor coming home -- it -- it just is so upsetting to me . after i left the club , i went and i bought a little bottle of vodka . and i came here to drink it , but [ sighs ] i guess katherine was looking down on me . she sent me the strength to throw it away . i did n't have any , but sometimes , i 'm not as strong . dylan : do n't be too hard on yourself . i mean , victor is a powerful trigger for you . nikki : you know , no . i do n't -- i do n't like that . i refuse to blame victor for my drinking . it 's not like i can depend on him to help me out with my worst impulses . no . i have to do this for myself , by myself . it 's the only way . victor : you come in here claiming that you have won , bragging about the fact that you went to judge russell gates to tell him that you think i 'm a reprehensible man and that my entire family thinks exactly the way you do . you 're not as confident as you claim you are . you come to here to gauge my reaction . because you 're worried about what i 'll do to you and to all those family members who have shown disloyalty to me , who are responsible for me being in here . adam : no . victor : really ? adam : no . i 'm not worried at all . because i know you 're gon na serve every day of your ten years . i 'm gon na make sure of it . you need to accept your fate , dad . this place , ten years -- hell of a long time . by the time you walk out that door , life will have gone on without you . we will have gone on without you . gone on and flourished , actually . and any relevance that you ever had ? ancient history . victor : keep on thinking that . adam : you know what else i think is you 're at the point in your life , at that age where you need to start thinking about your legacy , right ? what you 're gon na leave behind ? now , you tell me if that 's going as planned . a bunch of dutiful family members just falling in line because of blackmail and threats , forever grateful to you , this version of newman that 's never gon na happen because you overplayed your hand and we all rebelled . it 's killing you , right ? you do n't have that power anymore . you certainly do n't have any power over me . you can try . you can try all day . you sit in your cell , six by eight , try to ruin my day . wasting your time , dad . 'cause i 'm moving on without you . i 'm gon na be just fine . chelsea : what 's adam done ? nick : it 's unbelievable . chelsea : okay , nick , just calm down for two seconds , okay ? tell me . what did sage write in her journal that has you so upset ? nick : you know what ? you tell adam that i was here and i 'm gon na make him pay . chelsea : hold on . nick , just wait two seconds . nick ! just two seconds . mariah : sharon , answer me . what have you done ? what is it about sully that you 're keeping from everyone ? sharon : he 's not our baby . mariah : what ? what ? sharon : he 's not dylan 's , and he 's not mine . mariah : i do n't understand . how can that be ? sharon : the whole time i was at fairview , i was so drugged . i ... i did n't know the difference of what was real and what was n't . and dr. anderson -- she -- she said i could n't have any visitors . she di -- she did n't want anyone to see . mariah : to see what ? what did dr. anderson do ? why would you say that sully is n't yours ? sharon : because he 's nick and sage 's . he 's the baby that they thought they lost . he 's christian . mariah : this nurse stephens who owed dr. anderson . she took nick and sage 's child and told them he died ? sharon : she took the baby that she 'd been caring for and gave him to dr. anderson , who put him in my arms and told me ... mariah : that he was yours , your child with dylan , the one that you supposedly were carrying . and you believed it . so , while you were at fairview , you were never pregnant ? sharon : no . mariah : oh , my god . all of that time . all of those months . sharon , how could you not know ? ! how could you possibly believe ? sharon : i told you . the whole time i was at fairview , whenever i asked dr. anderson a question , she was right there to stab me with another needle . she was brainwashing me . she knew that what i wanted more than anything in my life was to be pregnant , and she just made me believe ... mariah : what you wanted to believe . sharon : yes . yes . the night she put that baby in my arms , it was like the answer to a prayer . it was everything i wanted . mariah : but it was a lie . how long have you known about this ? sharon : i started having nightmares . i started remembering that patty had said some things to me when i was in fairview . so , i went to talk to patty to find out the truth . in the meantime , sage was figuring things out . she had located nurse stephens at memorial . she forced a confession out of her . mariah : sage knew . [ sighs ] sharon : she was on her way to tell nick when she crashed her car . mariah : and you let the secret die with her . oh , my god ! my god , sharon ! how could you do that ? ! sharon : how could i destroy my husband 's happiness and the greatest joy of our lives ? ! michael : you assume that i am desperately unhappy without my law license . lauren : you 're telling me you 're not ? michael : this situation has given me the chance to think about what else i can do . it may very well be there is more to life than being a lawyer . lauren : you know , you thought the worst was going to happen after victor 's trial , that you would be disbarred . but you were n't . and now you have recourse . you can go in front of the state bar and appeal to have your suspension lifted . michael : i could . i 've done it before . i know the drill . but the question is do i want to go through all that again . and lately , i 'm just not so sure . lauren : what 's changed ? you love the law . you 're a brilliant attorney . michael : well , where is it written that i -- well , that 's all i can do ? why ca n't i , you know , be a brilliant something else for a change ? or maybe a brilliant nothing at all ? you know , it has occurred to me that , if i wanted to , i could retire early . we have plenty of money . lauren : [ laughs ] oh , michael . michael : no , it would give us a chance to travel , see new places , try new things while we 're still both young enough to enjoy it . lauren : where is this coming from ? wait a minute . wait a minute . you had the opportunity to take time off after the suspension . but you did n't take it . in fact , you jumped at the chance to work at newman . and that tells me that you are not even remotely ready to step back from your career . michael : is it so far - fetched ? lauren : [ laughs ] yes . actually , it is . you ? retired ? i mean , come on ! maybe in 25 years . and i mean , what about me ? i am ceo of fenmore 's . i could n't even take a safari now if i wanted to . michael : you have a brilliant management team in place . you can ask for a couple of weeks off now and then . you 've earned it , lauren -- the chance to slow down a little , smell the roses . lauren : what if i do n't want to slow down ? i 'm in the fashion industry . that goes at the speed of light . if people thought that i was n't on top of everything ... we 're not talking about me . we 're talking about you . and quite frankly , i 'm not buying any of this . so , you better tell me what 's going on . the truth , michael . dylan : i know how far people go to hold on to a relationship . and i see it at my job every day , even when the relationship is hurting them , the way this relationship is hurting you . nikki : well , i ca n't use that as an excuse . i need to stay sober for myself . dylan : yes , you do , but you have to make changes . i mean , you have to get away from the things that drag you down . nikki : like victor . dylan : i know that you have fought like hell to save your marriage . but there comes a point where you have to admit that you 're in a toxic relationship and it 's probably not gon na change . and i know it 's tough to walk away . and i know victor 's gon na make it tough . you are one of the strongest people that i know . and if anybody can do it , i know that you can do it . you do n't have to give him the power anymore . nikki : thank you , sweetheart . i think i finally know what i need to do . victor : you enjoy antagonizing me , do n't you ? keep it up . see what it gets you . adam : people moving on without you is obviously driving you insane . it feels pretty good from over here , though . victor : see what it gets you . just keep it up . adam : you and your threats . the thing is you do n't intimidate me anymore . i 'm not afraid of you . victor : good . adam : yeah . and i suggest you spend the next ten years of your life in here trying to figure out what it is you did in the name of family to get your family to turn on you quickly . victor : son , i suggest you watch what you say , okay ? guard ! guard : everything okay in here ? victor : kindly get him out of here . adam : you may very well die alone in here , dad . you can blame yourself for that one . victor : i promise you , son , you 'll regret saying what you did . [ exclaims ] michael : having my own practice -- it was wonderful . for me . but i know it was n't always so great for you . the hours were insane . there were times when i practically lived at the office . and i missed out on things that were important to you because i got caught up in my own work . and now -- now is my chance to make all of that up to you . lauren : you know , you 're talking like we never spent any time together , and that could n't be further from the truth . look , my schedule is just as intense . and quite frankly , i think we strike a perfect balance . i mean , who dragged you to the ballet this week ? michael : you did . lauren : mm - hmm . and who insisted that we have dessert at my favorite café after ? michael : that would be me . lauren : i rest my case , counselor . look , spending time with you is very important to me . but so is your happiness . michael : i 'm happiest when i 'm spending time with you . lauren : i know you mean that . but i also know you . and i know you wrestled long and hard as to what to do in victor 's case and your part in bringing that man to justice . michael : i subverted the system . lauren : for a very good reason . michael : yeah , well , the legal authorities do n't think so . lauren : mm , if that were true , they would have disbarred you . instead you got a legal equivalent of a time out -- time to think things through . okay . you thought things through . and now it 's time to get back to what you love doing . michael : you make it sound very easy . lauren : there 's no reason why it ca n't be . honey , this was not the universe giving you this big sign that it 's time to make an enormous change . the law is in your dna . now , please , do us both a favor and go get reinstated . and not just for you . do it for me . do it for us . michael : [ chuckles ] how can i say no to that ? lauren : you ca n't . do you want to go to the infirmary , have dr. gates get a look at that hand ? victor : no . that 's all right . thank you . adam : what the hell was i thinking going up there to visit victor , huh ? i mean , he just gets under my skin , you know ? and i end up saying too much . i said way too much . and the guy -- he gloats , right ? he 's just so sure he 's gon na get out of there . it just pisses me off . chelsea : i 'm really sorry that it did n't go well with victor , but , uh , we 've got a bit of a problem on our hands . nick was just here looking for you . adam : you know , i mean , i 'll call him later . chelsea : he was really upset , babe . adam : okay . i 'll call him now . chelsea : no . i - i think he knows the truth about christian 's paternity . nick : [ smooches ] sharon : [ voice breaking ] i did not do this to nick and sage . i did not set out to steal another woman 's child . i am just as much a victim of dr. anderson and her sick mind as they are . i 've been raising this baby for months , loving him as if he were my own , believing that he were my own , and i 'm the only mother he 's ever known . we have a bond , the kind of bond that only a mother and child share . what was i supposed to do , just hand him back , my child ? ! mariah : nick 's child . nick 's child . he is that baby 's real father , and he 's been suffering over this loss . it has been eating him away ! and you knew ! and you stood by and watched . and you did nothing . adam : okay , so , in this journal , sage wrote about me ? chelsea : evidently . adam : okay . and based on nick 's reaction , it 's not very flattering . adam : you 're kidding . chelsea : i mean , he did n't get into detail , but it 's obvious what must have happened . after sage found out that you switched the paternity results , she must have written about it . and now nick knows , and i 've never seen him so mad , adam . adam : oh , no . chelsea : after everything he 's been through , i think nick is looking for someone to blame . and that person is you . adam : [ sighs ] nick : [ crying ] i miss you . every day . i just wish you would have talked to me about this . you did n't need to carry it around all alone . mariah : how could you do this to nick ? this is why you 've been pushing for him to spend so much time with sully , his son ! did it make you feel less guilty ? did it ease your conscience ? i do n't understand how you could live with yourself . i - i really , really do n't . sharon : well , the truth is gon na come out . because sage wrote it all down in her diary , and i 'm sure that nick has read it all by now . he knows the truth . so , dylan and i [ crying ] are just gon na have to give up the sweet baby boy that we thought -- we thought he was ours . and i will -- i will find a way to live with it . i will . we both will . mariah : well , if you 're right about this , if it 's in sage 's journal , than there is n't much time . you 've got to find dylan . sharon : i do n't know . i do n't know if i can . mariah : you have to ! you have to . he has got to hear this from you . sharon : [ sighs ] victor : i was seven years old , left alone , no father , no mother ! and then i hear that you came back one day to visit your family only to disappear again ! and you fake your own death because you did n't want your success to trickle down to your sons or your wife that you left behind , destitute ! albert : what do you want from me now , christian miller ? money ? i 'm a wealthy man . $ 1 million . $ 2 million ? name your price . i 'll write you a check , and then you can go home ! victor : i want nothing from you ! nothing . i 'm no longer christian miller . i 'm victor newman . i 'm the victor newman . do you understand that ? i 've made my own life . i 'm wealthy beyond your wildest dreams . i 'm respected and known around the world , and perhaps i should thank you for the pain you have caused me , for the cruelty you have done to me . because without that , i would not be the man i am now . and without the pain that i 've carried with me for all my life , i would n't have realized that none of it means anything , no wealth means anything without family . nikki : thank you . i am so sorry to interrupt you guys . lauren : oh , really , you 're not . we 're just having coffee . michael : so , how is everything ? nikki : everything is terrible . michael : oh . i 'm sorry to hear that . nikki : look , i know that you 're not practicing law anymore , but i was hoping you could give me some advice or perhaps a referral . i need somebody top- notch . michael : of course . i 'd be happy to do both . what 's the issue ? nikki : i want a divorce . michael : i 'm ... surprised . i know you and victor have some massive issues to deal with , but ... lauren : it 's just , after you testified against him , you were so full of regret . nikki : oh , though i knew that i had done the right thing , but ... i do n't know . after he was sent away to prison , i just started thinking , `` is the price too steep ? i mean , after all , he is still my husband . `` which i kept saying to myself , like i have said to myself [ voice breaking ] a hundred times . i 'm sorry . this is n't easy . michael : take your time . nikki : so , i , uh , went to see him , praying that he had forgiven me . i - i was desperate to let him know that what i did was for him , that i was trying to help him , that i wanted to intervene before -- before it was too late . lauren : only victor did n't feel that way , right ? nikki : oh , my god . he was so horrible to me . he was so cold and so distant . and that is when he brought up my proxy . he asked me to give it to another board member , which i stupidly did . i had no idea . i found out later that that was his way of punishing victoria . and that 's the only thing he 's interested in doing these days . michael : that sounds so like victor . nikki : it 's like he feels that he 's completely innocent and has done nothing worthy of being locked up . and i can not defend him anymore . you know , i 'm -- i 'm sick of feeling like everything is always my fault . i am sick of running to alcohol to try to deal with it . i just ca n't live this way anymore . lauren : of course you ca n't . and you should n't . michael : listen to me , nikki . i promise you i will do whatever i can to help you . victor : i 've come to say goodbye and i 've said my goodbye . albert : do n't come back . you hear me ? victor : why would i ever come back to see you ? [ crying ] chelsea : if victor hears about this , you know what 's gon na happen . he 's gon na reach out to nick , he 's gon na fan the flames , which is gon na make him even more determined to go after you . adam : that 's just what he does . but let 's -- let 's just slow down for a second , okay ? you said you thought nick was upset because this had to do with christian 's paternity , right ? but did he actually say that ? chelsea : well , no , but what else could it be ? adam : i do n't know . but sage made it very clear she did n't want nick to find out that he was n't christian 's father , right ? she wrote it in the letter . she thanked me for not telling him , so why would she write it in a journal ? that does n't make any sense , babe . she would n't do that , right ? so , whatever this is , it 's something else . sharon : sweetheart ? dylan : what 's wrong ? sharon : i ... i have to tell you something . dylan : okay . what is it ? sharon : it 's about ... dylan : what is it ? sharon : it 's about ... dylan : what ? nick : dylan . dylan : what ? nick : sage kept a journal . i just got finished reading it . you 're not gon na believe this . sharon : nick , wait . please , just stop . nick : no . no . listen to me . sage would not lie , not about this . i need you to listen to me . dylan : okay . go ahead . nick : you need to arrest adam . dylan : on what charge ? nick : murder .

victor : what plan are you talking about ? adam : i 'm talking about your new best friend who just happens to be the daughter of a judge . but not just any judge , right ? the judge that 's in charge of pardons and paroles . i mean , come on , man . that 's , like , serendipity . you 're impressive . you are -- you are something else the way you 're able to just reel people in , you read them the way that you do . it 's a gift , really . figure out what their weaknesses are , and you just -- you just latch on , right ? i mean , it sucks for you that it did n't work , though . victor : i mean , if you did n't think it worked , then why did you come here , to gloat ? adam : no . no , no , no . not to gloat . i did n't mean to come off that way . i 'm here to put you on notice that whatever you do to try to attempt to get out of here early , i 'm gon na block it . victor : you go ahead and try that . michael : mm . what was that for ? lauren : you married me , baby . michael : i 'm a genius . touché . lauren : you are . i have , uh , very exciting news . michael : i can tell by the way your eyes are sparkling . lauren : yeah . these eyes have been very busy . michael : doing what ? lauren : your law license . michael : oh , my suspended law license . lauren : aha , but suspended is not the same as disbarred . and after a period of time , you can file for reinstatement . i just came from the law library at the gcu , and i 've been digging up records of wisconsin attorneys who got suspended and got their licenses back . and the fascinating thing is the ones that filed successful appeals had very , very similar approaches . michael : all right . let me stop you right there . i love that you went to the trouble . but i already know all this . lauren : then why have n't you done anything about it ? mariah : i know that something 's going on with you . it 's obvious . when i asked if i could move back in , i could tell that you were n't thrilled with the idea , and now i 'm starting to think it 's because you did n't want me to find out what you were hiding . sharon : no . no , no , no , no . that 's not true . mariah : sharon , it 's me . i am on your side . have n't i proven that ? did n't i keep my mouth shut about the miscarriage , even though i thought it was a terrible idea that you were n't telling dylan ? sharon : you said you would never bring that up again . mariah : nobody else is here . the place is n't bugged . why ... wait a second . did sage find out ? sharon : no . no . that 's not it . mariah : sharon , dylan loves you . if it ever came out , he would understand . sharon : it can not come out , okay ? you can never tell him . mariah , promise me . mariah : fine . fine . i promise . but you ca n't keep telling lies . they always come back to bite you , if you have n't figured that out by now . i am really worried about you . if you do n't talk to somebody , i 'm afraid that you 're gon na have another breakdown . did you end up finding a new therapist ? sharon : i 'm -- i 'm looking . mariah : okay . well , then that leaves me or dylan . you know that you can trust him , right ? he loves you like crazy , and he knows what it 's like to come a little unhinged . if you do n't feel like you can talk to me , then please tell me that you 'll try talking to him . sharon : i - i - i ca n't . i ca n't . mariah : why not ? because i ... mariah : sharon . come on ! sharon : it 's sully . mariah : sully ? what about sully ? dylan : i think being around sully helped sage a lot . i mean , i think you -- you explained it the best . it just helped her heal after -- after she lost christian . nikki : yeah . nicholas mentioned that a number of times . i know he was very grateful to you and sharon for sharing your son that way . and it really was very generous of you . dylan : sage was a different person around you , huh , buddy ? she was so peaceful . i think she felt like she could finally let go of things that were holding her back . nikki : yeah . like your poor brother . nicholas has lost so much , more than what most people could bear . dylan : i know . but if it makes you breathe any easier , he seemed better when i saw him earlier . he stopped by . nikki : he did ? he came by for a visit ? dylan : he did . he came by to see faith . you know , it got to the point where it was very hard for him to be around her because he could n't put on a good face anymore and pretend everything was okay . and ... you know , that 's why faith was staying with us . but i will say this . i think it is a good sign that nick wanted to see her . nikki : okay . i hope you 're right . hopefully , he 's ready to move out of that dark place and ... go on with his life . chelsea : that was sage 's private letter to adam . i have no idea what it said . nick : you 're his wife , chelsea . i 'm supposed to believe that he never showed it to you ? chelsea : he never showed it to me , nick . and i never asked . nick : and you never discussed it ? chelsea : no . we did n't discuss it . what ? what happened ? why are you so upset ? nick : it 's just sage 's journal . i would see her writing in it at night . she kept it pretty private . you know , now that she 's gone , i thought that it might make me feel closer to her if i read it . chelsea : oh . uh , well -- well , i hope it did . nick : yeah , it did until i got to the part where adam became a part of her life . what he did -- adam 's capable of a lot of things , but this is unforgivable . dylan : so , you were , uh , starting to tell me about victor . nikki : oh . i should n't . it just upsets me . makes me think about how he 's still manipulating everybody as if he had n't even left home . how is that even possible ? dylan : uh , he 's got a lot of time on his hands . nikki : yeah , and he 's using it to plot revenge , making sure adam lost that job in chicago , selling newman cosmetics right out from underneath victoria , and then sending that prison doctor to sage 's memorial service . dylan : yeah , that was a little strange . nikki : [ scoffs ] she is being so manipulated by victor , and she has no idea . get this . her father is a judge , the kind that makes decisions about paroles and pardons . dylan : ah . victor 's working her to get an early release . nikki : yes , obviously . i - i mean , sending her as his ambassador -- that is such a classic victor move . no matter what the situation is , he must assert his will , control , control , control . i fought with him and fought with him for years about this , and there has been no change . and then i end up doing things i should n't do just out of sheer frustration . dylan : like what ? nikki : last night -- perfect example . i got so rattled talking to this dr. gates woman that i ordered a martini , and i damn near drank it . dylan : but you did n't . nikki : i did n't because jack was there to stop me before i could take a first sip . but it 's just the thought of victor coming home -- it -- it just is so upsetting to me . after i left the club , i went and i bought a little bottle of vodka . and i came here to drink it , but [ sighs ] i guess katherine was looking down on me . she sent me the strength to throw it away . i did n't have any , but sometimes , i 'm not as strong . dylan : do n't be too hard on yourself . i mean , victor is a powerful trigger for you . nikki : you know , no . i do n't -- i do n't like that . i refuse to blame victor for my drinking . it 's not like i can depend on him to help me out with my worst impulses . no . i have to do this for myself , by myself . it 's the only way . victor : you come in here claiming that you have won , bragging about the fact that you went to judge russell gates to tell him that you think i 'm a reprehensible man and that my entire family thinks exactly the way you do . you 're not as confident as you claim you are . you come to here to gauge my reaction . because you 're worried about what i 'll do to you and to all those family members who have shown disloyalty to me , who are responsible for me being in here . adam : no . victor : really ? adam : no . i 'm not worried at all . because i know you 're gon na serve every day of your ten years . i 'm gon na make sure of it . you need to accept your fate , dad . this place , ten years -- hell of a long time . by the time you walk out that door , life will have gone on without you . we will have gone on without you . gone on and flourished , actually . and any relevance that you ever had ? ancient history . victor : keep on thinking that . adam : you know what else i think is you 're at the point in your life , at that age where you need to start thinking about your legacy , right ? what you 're gon na leave behind ? now , you tell me if that 's going as planned . a bunch of dutiful family members just falling in line because of blackmail and threats , forever grateful to you , this version of newman that 's never gon na happen because you overplayed your hand and we all rebelled . it 's killing you , right ? you do n't have that power anymore . you certainly do n't have any power over me . you can try . you can try all day . you sit in your cell , six by eight , try to ruin my day . wasting your time , dad . 'cause i 'm moving on without you . i 'm gon na be just fine . chelsea : what 's adam done ? nick : it 's unbelievable . chelsea : okay , nick , just calm down for two seconds , okay ? tell me . what did sage write in her journal that has you so upset ? nick : you know what ? you tell adam that i was here and i 'm gon na make him pay . chelsea : hold on . nick , just wait two seconds . nick ! just two seconds . mariah : sharon , answer me . what have you done ? what is it about sully that you 're keeping from everyone ? sharon : he 's not our baby . mariah : what ? what ? sharon : he 's not dylan 's , and he 's not mine . mariah : i do n't understand . how can that be ? sharon : the whole time i was at fairview , i was so drugged . i ... i did n't know the difference of what was real and what was n't . and dr. anderson -- she -- she said i could n't have any visitors . she di -- she did n't want anyone to see . mariah : to see what ? what did dr. anderson do ? why would you say that sully is n't yours ? sharon : because he 's nick and sage 's . he 's the baby that they thought they lost . he 's christian . mariah : this nurse stephens who owed dr. anderson . she took nick and sage 's child and told them he died ? sharon : she took the baby that she 'd been caring for and gave him to dr. anderson , who put him in my arms and told me ... mariah : that he was yours , your child with dylan , the one that you supposedly were carrying . and you believed it . so , while you were at fairview , you were never pregnant ? sharon : no . mariah : oh , my god . all of that time . all of those months . sharon , how could you not know ? ! how could you possibly believe ? sharon : i told you . the whole time i was at fairview , whenever i asked dr. anderson a question , she was right there to stab me with another needle . she was brainwashing me . she knew that what i wanted more than anything in my life was to be pregnant , and she just made me believe ... mariah : what you wanted to believe . sharon : yes . yes . the night she put that baby in my arms , it was like the answer to a prayer . it was everything i wanted . mariah : but it was a lie . how long have you known about this ? sharon : i started having nightmares . i started remembering that patty had said some things to me when i was in fairview . so , i went to talk to patty to find out the truth . in the meantime , sage was figuring things out . she had located nurse stephens at memorial . she forced a confession out of her . mariah : sage knew . [ sighs ] sharon : she was on her way to tell nick when she crashed her car . mariah : and you let the secret die with her . oh , my god ! my god , sharon ! how could you do that ? ! sharon : how could i destroy my husband 's happiness and the greatest joy of our lives ? ! michael : you assume that i am desperately unhappy without my law license . lauren : you 're telling me you 're not ? michael : this situation has given me the chance to think about what else i can do . it may very well be there is more to life than being a lawyer . lauren : you know , you thought the worst was going to happen after victor 's trial , that you would be disbarred . but you were n't . and now you have recourse . you can go in front of the state bar and appeal to have your suspension lifted . michael : i could . i 've done it before . i know the drill . but the question is do i want to go through all that again . and lately , i 'm just not so sure . lauren : what 's changed ? you love the law . you 're a brilliant attorney . michael : well , where is it written that i -- well , that 's all i can do ? why ca n't i , you know , be a brilliant something else for a change ? or maybe a brilliant nothing at all ? you know , it has occurred to me that , if i wanted to , i could retire early . we have plenty of money . lauren : [ laughs ] oh , michael . michael : no , it would give us a chance to travel , see new places , try new things while we 're still both young enough to enjoy it . lauren : where is this coming from ? wait a minute . wait a minute . you had the opportunity to take time off after the suspension . but you did n't take it . in fact , you jumped at the chance to work at newman . and that tells me that you are not even remotely ready to step back from your career . michael : is it so far - fetched ? lauren : [ laughs ] yes . actually , it is . you ? retired ? i mean , come on ! maybe in 25 years . and i mean , what about me ? i am ceo of fenmore 's . i could n't even take a safari now if i wanted to . michael : you have a brilliant management team in place . you can ask for a couple of weeks off now and then . you 've earned it , lauren -- the chance to slow down a little , smell the roses . lauren : what if i do n't want to slow down ? i 'm in the fashion industry . that goes at the speed of light . if people thought that i was n't on top of everything ... we 're not talking about me . we 're talking about you . and quite frankly , i 'm not buying any of this . so , you better tell me what 's going on . the truth , michael . dylan : i know how far people go to hold on to a relationship . and i see it at my job every day , even when the relationship is hurting them , the way this relationship is hurting you . nikki : well , i ca n't use that as an excuse . i need to stay sober for myself . dylan : yes , you do , but you have to make changes . i mean , you have to get away from the things that drag you down . nikki : like victor . dylan : i know that you have fought like hell to save your marriage . but there comes a point where you have to admit that you 're in a toxic relationship and it 's probably not gon na change . and i know it 's tough to walk away . and i know victor 's gon na make it tough . you are one of the strongest people that i know . and if anybody can do it , i know that you can do it . you do n't have to give him the power anymore . nikki : thank you , sweetheart . i think i finally know what i need to do . victor : you enjoy antagonizing me , do n't you ? keep it up . see what it gets you . adam : people moving on without you is obviously driving you insane . it feels pretty good from over here , though . victor : see what it gets you . just keep it up . adam : you and your threats . the thing is you do n't intimidate me anymore . i 'm not afraid of you . victor : good . adam : yeah . and i suggest you spend the next ten years of your life in here trying to figure out what it is you did in the name of family to get your family to turn on you quickly . victor : son , i suggest you watch what you say , okay ? guard ! guard : everything okay in here ? victor : kindly get him out of here . adam : you may very well die alone in here , dad . you can blame yourself for that one . victor : i promise you , son , you 'll regret saying what you did . [ exclaims ] michael : having my own practice -- it was wonderful . for me . but i know it was n't always so great for you . the hours were insane . there were times when i practically lived at the office . and i missed out on things that were important to you because i got caught up in my own work . and now -- now is my chance to make all of that up to you . lauren : you know , you 're talking like we never spent any time together , and that could n't be further from the truth . look , my schedule is just as intense . and quite frankly , i think we strike a perfect balance . i mean , who dragged you to the ballet this week ? michael : you did . lauren : mm - hmm . and who insisted that we have dessert at my favorite café after ? michael : that would be me . lauren : i rest my case , counselor . look , spending time with you is very important to me . but so is your happiness . michael : i 'm happiest when i 'm spending time with you . lauren : i know you mean that . but i also know you . and i know you wrestled long and hard as to what to do in victor 's case and your part in bringing that man to justice . michael : i subverted the system . lauren : for a very good reason . michael : yeah , well , the legal authorities do n't think so . lauren : mm , if that were true , they would have disbarred you . instead you got a legal equivalent of a time out -- time to think things through . okay . you thought things through . and now it 's time to get back to what you love doing . michael : you make it sound very easy . lauren : there 's no reason why it ca n't be . honey , this was not the universe giving you this big sign that it 's time to make an enormous change . the law is in your dna . now , please , do us both a favor and go get reinstated . and not just for you . do it for me . do it for us . michael : [ chuckles ] how can i say no to that ? lauren : you ca n't . do you want to go to the infirmary , have dr. gates get a look at that hand ? victor : no . that 's all right . thank you . adam : what the hell was i thinking going up there to visit victor , huh ? i mean , he just gets under my skin , you know ? and i end up saying too much . i said way too much . and the guy -- he gloats , right ? he 's just so sure he 's gon na get out of there . it just pisses me off . chelsea : i 'm really sorry that it did n't go well with victor , but , uh , we 've got a bit of a problem on our hands . nick was just here looking for you . adam : you know , i mean , i 'll call him later . chelsea : he was really upset , babe . adam : okay . i 'll call him now . chelsea : no . i - i think he knows the truth about christian 's paternity . nick : [ smooches ] sharon : [ voice breaking ] i did not do this to nick and sage . i did not set out to steal another woman 's child . i am just as much a victim of dr. anderson and her sick mind as they are . i 've been raising this baby for months , loving him as if he were my own , believing that he were my own , and i 'm the only mother he 's ever known . we have a bond , the kind of bond that only a mother and child share . what was i supposed to do , just hand him back , my child ? ! mariah : nick 's child . nick 's child . he is that baby 's real father , and he 's been suffering over this loss . it has been eating him away ! and you knew ! and you stood by and watched . and you did nothing . adam : okay , so , in this journal , sage wrote about me ? chelsea : evidently . adam : okay . and based on nick 's reaction , it 's not very flattering . adam : you 're kidding . chelsea : i mean , he did n't get into detail , but it 's obvious what must have happened . after sage found out that you switched the paternity results , she must have written about it . and now nick knows , and i 've never seen him so mad , adam . adam : oh , no . chelsea : after everything he 's been through , i think nick is looking for someone to blame . and that person is you . adam : [ sighs ] nick : [ crying ] i miss you . every day . i just wish you would have talked to me about this . you did n't need to carry it around all alone . mariah : how could you do this to nick ? this is why you 've been pushing for him to spend so much time with sully , his son ! did it make you feel less guilty ? did it ease your conscience ? i do n't understand how you could live with yourself . i - i really , really do n't . sharon : well , the truth is gon na come out . because sage wrote it all down in her diary , and i 'm sure that nick has read it all by now . he knows the truth . so , dylan and i [ crying ] are just gon na have to give up the sweet baby boy that we thought -- we thought he was ours . and i will -- i will find a way to live with it . i will . we both will . mariah : well , if you 're right about this , if it 's in sage 's journal , than there is n't much time . you 've got to find dylan . sharon : i do n't know . i do n't know if i can . mariah : you have to ! you have to . he has got to hear this from you . sharon : [ sighs ] victor : i was seven years old , left alone , no father , no mother ! and then i hear that you came back one day to visit your family only to disappear again ! and you fake your own death because you did n't want your success to trickle down to your sons or your wife that you left behind , destitute ! albert : what do you want from me now , christian miller ? money ? i 'm a wealthy man . $ 1 million . $ 2 million ? name your price . i 'll write you a check , and then you can go home ! victor : i want nothing from you ! nothing . i 'm no longer christian miller . i 'm victor newman . i 'm the victor newman . do you understand that ? i 've made my own life . i 'm wealthy beyond your wildest dreams . i 'm respected and known around the world , and perhaps i should thank you for the pain you have caused me , for the cruelty you have done to me . because without that , i would not be the man i am now . and without the pain that i 've carried with me for all my life , i would n't have realized that none of it means anything , no wealth means anything without family . nikki : thank you . i am so sorry to interrupt you guys . lauren : oh , really , you 're not . we 're just having coffee . michael : so , how is everything ? nikki : everything is terrible . michael : oh . i 'm sorry to hear that . nikki : look , i know that you 're not practicing law anymore , but i was hoping you could give me some advice or perhaps a referral . i need somebody top- notch . michael : of course . i 'd be happy to do both . what 's the issue ? nikki : i want a divorce . michael : i 'm ... surprised . i know you and victor have some massive issues to deal with , but ... lauren : it 's just , after you testified against him , you were so full of regret . nikki : oh , though i knew that i had done the right thing , but ... i do n't know . after he was sent away to prison , i just started thinking , `` is the price too steep ? i mean , after all , he is still my husband . `` which i kept saying to myself , like i have said to myself [ voice breaking ] a hundred times . i 'm sorry . this is n't easy . michael : take your time . nikki : so , i , uh , went to see him , praying that he had forgiven me . i - i was desperate to let him know that what i did was for him , that i was trying to help him , that i wanted to intervene before -- before it was too late . lauren : only victor did n't feel that way , right ? nikki : oh , my god . he was so horrible to me . he was so cold and so distant . and that is when he brought up my proxy . he asked me to give it to another board member , which i stupidly did . i had no idea . i found out later that that was his way of punishing victoria . and that 's the only thing he 's interested in doing these days . michael : that sounds so like victor . nikki : it 's like he feels that he 's completely innocent and has done nothing worthy of being locked up . and i can not defend him anymore . you know , i 'm -- i 'm sick of feeling like everything is always my fault . i am sick of running to alcohol to try to deal with it . i just ca n't live this way anymore . lauren : of course you ca n't . and you should n't . michael : listen to me , nikki . i promise you i will do whatever i can to help you . victor : i 've come to say goodbye and i 've said my goodbye . albert : do n't come back . you hear me ? victor : why would i ever come back to see you ? [ crying ] chelsea : if victor hears about this , you know what 's gon na happen . he 's gon na reach out to nick , he 's gon na fan the flames , which is gon na make him even more determined to go after you . adam : that 's just what he does . but let 's -- let 's just slow down for a second , okay ? you said you thought nick was upset because this had to do with christian 's paternity , right ? but did he actually say that ? chelsea : well , no , but what else could it be ? adam : i do n't know . but sage made it very clear she did n't want nick to find out that he was n't christian 's father , right ? she wrote it in the letter . she thanked me for not telling him , so why would she write it in a journal ? that does n't make any sense , babe . she would n't do that , right ? so , whatever this is , it 's something else . sharon : sweetheart ? dylan : what 's wrong ? sharon : i ... i have to tell you something . dylan : okay . what is it ? sharon : it 's about ... dylan : what is it ? sharon : it 's about ... dylan : what ? nick : dylan . dylan : what ? nick : sage kept a journal . i just got finished reading it . you 're not gon na believe this . sharon : nick , wait . please , just stop . nick : no . no . listen to me . sage would not lie , not about this . i need you to listen to me . dylan : okay . go ahead . nick : you need to arrest adam . dylan : on what charge ? nick : murder .

[ scene_break ] sam : thank god you had nothing to do with kiefer getting run down . jason : sonny did n't either . if he gave the order , i would have known . sam : well , kristina lied and said that ethan did it so she could protect kiefer because she was afraid that sonny was gon na kill him . jason , i screwed this all up . i was so lost in my hurt over my sister that i was n't there for her so she could have someone to talk to . jason : sam , you have every right to be upset and angry . sam : yeah , but i should have been there for her , so she had someone to talk to , jason . i mean , i know more than anyone that when you are scared , you sometimes lie . it 's just the way it is . and i know it 's gon na sound crazy , but she thought she had to protect him even though kiefer lied and controlled her and terrorized her and threatened her . jason : there 's no way you could have known . it was your sister . you wanted to believe her . sam : you did n't . jason : well , i was just -- i was trying to stay objective . sam : jason , you were listening to her and you were paying attention to her , which means that you were able to help her . and i did n't do that . and now it 's too late . jason : no , it 's not . kristina needs you now more than ever .

[ scene_break ] nikolas : correct me if i 'm wrong , but were n't you the one who decreed that we continue to live here together as a married couple , me knowing that you 're really rachel berlin , you alleging that i tried to have you killed ? you know , trying to keep everything the same . hayden : one night waiting for you to stab me in my sleep was enough to change that . i need full control of elq to protect myself both physically and financially . nikolas : if i sign ... these documents ... basically giving you my entire fortune , who 's to say that you wo n't -- you wo n't call the police right then ? and do n't -- do n't embarrass yourself by saying that you 're giving me your word . hayden : as soon as you sign the documents , i 'll provide a statement about what happened that day at the garage that totally exonerates you . the police would never be able to move forward with the investigation , because any accusation i made against you would be refuted by that document . nikolas : you are blackmailing me into giving you everything that i have ev -- hayden : god . you 're still hurt from that fight with jason . are you sure you should n't call a doctor ? nikolas : oh , you -- you are ... you , honestly -- you are too much . you and your -- and your partner in extortion ... y - you started threatening me yesterday until jason shows up and tries to kill me , then you show up in my bedroom tending my wounds and end up spending the night in my bed . who are you ? hayden : i 'm sorry this has gotten so acrimonious . nikolas : yeah , well , i 'm sorry i did n't realize you were such a greedy manipulator . hayden : you can call me every name in the book . it does n't change the final outcome . it 's time for me to move on . nikolas : good . the sooner the better . hayden : i 'll be leaving wyndemere with your fortune , as you no doubt have realized , or you would n't be so angry . laura : what 's going on here ? oh , my god . what happened ? are you all right ? hayden : nikolas was just saying goodbye ... to a lot of things .

[ scene_break ] sonny : you shot carlos four times ? anna : yeah . i believed i killed him . sonny : and he survived ? anna : yeah . it was a set - up , for god 's sake . he was wearing , like , a bulletproof vest and blood capsules or whatever . sonny : but it does n't sound like carlos would do something that elaborate . anna : yeah , i believe that he was working with kyle sloane , and it was to get leverage against me . but it did n't matter . they did n't have to do that . i fully intended to murder him . sonny : for good reason . anna : you see , coming from you , that 's not reassuring . sonny : what are you talking about ? he goaded you into shooting him . why would you feel guilty ? anna : because i played right into their hands . do n't you see that ? i - i acted like a vigilante , not a cop . i abandoned all my principles , my training , and i just cast myself as judge , jury , and executioner . i did n't trust in the judicial system . i broke the law . sonny : the law did n't give you justice . you -- you took it yourself . i would have done the same thing . anna : right , well , that 's where we 're different because , look , i know the system does n't always work . i get that , but without a system , where does it all end ? what happens 20 years down the line when sabrina and carlos ' kid is all fully grown ? what , it comes after me to shoot me ? no ! i do n't believe in a lawless society . that is why we bring carlos back to the states , and he stands trial . hopefully he will turn on julian , and then -- then you and i will have the ultimate justice . if i have to serve time in prison , that 's just part of the equation . sonny : i get that . there 's no proof of your crime . there was no witnesses . so it 's your word against carlos . you got nothing to worry about . anna : i have no intention of denying it . sonny : but that 's insane . anna : no . it 's not . it 's my decision to make . sonny : it 's not your decision . do -- do -- [ sighs ] you know what the problem is with your story ? that you did n't just shoot carlos in the head ... anna : right . sonny : ... and kill him . anna : therein lies the very reason that i could n't trust you to come after carlos on your own . that 's it right there . sonny : all right , well , we do n't have to agree to work together . we 're about to land . so once we get our hand on carlos ... anna : ... we 'll get justice for duke . [ scene_break ] maxie : i just do n't understand how any woman could have cheated on someone as wonderful as you . nathan : well , clearly , she did n't think of me the same way . maxie : yeah , but you married her so she could get her green card and stay in the country , right ? nathan : yeah . maxie : so you did n't ask for anything in exchange . you were being kind and generous and chivalrous . how could she be so ungrateful ? i mean , all the french - canadians i 've met have been super - cool . hey , by the way , did you say she lived in montréal or quebec city ? nathan : i did n't . why does it matter ? maxie : oh , it does n't . though i do wonder if she kept your last name , because when we 're married , it would be really awkward if there were two -- nathan : maxie , i know what you 're doing , and i need you to stop it now .

[ scene_break ] kate : ah , there you are ! austin : there she is . kate : [ delighted growl ] i am so glad you could meet me for breakfast , baby . austin : mwah . kate : oh . carrie : so are we . kate : wow . i mean , are you okay though ? can you handle this ? austin told me you had a little morning sickness , but i think you look absolutely fabulous . carrie : oh , you told your mom . austin : no , no , no , no , it 's not like -- you got it out of me last night on the phone , and i know you said that you did n't want us telling a lot of people right away , but it 's ... carrie : she 's your mom . austin : yeah . [ laughter ] and i think my mom 's gon na need a little extra time getting used to the idea of being a grandmother again . kate : oh , my god , really ? because i have been waiting forever , for years . i did n't think it was ever gon na happen . austin : oh , but that 's nice , mom , thanks . kate : no , i -- oh , honey , i am so happy , so happy for you . carrie : [ laughs ] thank you . kate : wow , you two have been through so much , so much . now , with this baby coming , you can put it all behind you . [ chuckles ] [ scene_break ] rafe : well , look who it is . roman : agent spencer , to whatever do we owe this honor ? spencer : new assignment . governor 's asked for an objective agency to oversee the investigation into dimera 's murder . rafe : well , well , well . [ chuckles ] we knew the assignment was coming , we just did n't figure it would be isa . spencer : well , stefano 's death had some real international repercussions , given his recent involvement with the cia . roman : well , to be honest , i 'm not sorry to see you take it over . i 've lost enough sleep over this case already . spencer : so , look , officer kent briefed me on the way over , but you boys tell me -- who do you think is our prime suspect ? roman : our gut says ... rafe : ej dimera ... stefano 's son . [ scene_break ] ej : [ sniffles ] william ... did n't hear you come in . will : what 's going on ? ej : `` what 's going on `` ? i expected you here a half an hour ago , william . you 're late . will : i 'm sorry . ej : sorry , sorry -- that 's what you have to say for yourself , is it , `` sorry `` ? will : well , i thought you would call me and tell me not to come in today . ej : why would i do that ? hm ? will : well , do you have to ask ? i mean , your sister died today . i ... know how much she meant -- ej : leave that alone . will : listen , i was here when you got the call , and i know you 're upset and i just -- i expected that -- ej : you expected what , mm ? what ? you thought i was going to just bury myself in grief , did you ? sit alone in the dark ? mourn my loss ? does that sound like something i would do ? will : well , i do n't think anyone would blame you for taking a few days for yourself . i mean , even the mayor gets a day off or two . ej : right , well , if i was just the mayor , then maybe i would be afforded that sort of luxury , but i 'm not just the mayor , william . i 'm also a dimera . [ scene_break ] rafe : well , we did consider the possibility that our suspect was working with someone else , but that theory fell apart . spencer : why is that ? rafe : other suspect 's alibi 's out . spencer : your grandson , will ? roman : yeah . spencer : the press have been playing up his alibi . roman : tabloids , sure . anything to sell a few extra copies . spencer : well , of course , the case is gon na be covered from every angle . you said yourself , stefano 's murder affects almost everyone in this town . roman : does n't mean i have to like it , especially when they exploit my family . will 's private life is nobody 's business . [ scene_break ] ej : here . you 're front page news . will : wow , i did n't ask for this , you know . ej : well , at least nobody thinks you 're a murderer . will : you know all this means is now the police are gon na focus on somebody else , right ? ej : yeah . i 'm counting on that . [ scene_break ] spencer : ej encouraged will to come forward with his alibi . roman : according to what will told us , yeah . spencer : hmm ... if ej had something to hide , you 'd think he 'd want a suspect in custody . rafe : yeah , well , he must 've known his case would n't hold up . spencer : what 've you got on junior ? rafe : junior -- oh . nothing , except stefano drew up a new will recently ... disinheriting junior . spencer : you 're serious ? rafe : oh , yeah . roman : yeah . but he was killed before he could sign it . spencer : any ideas why stefano wanted ej cut off from the family fortune ? [ scene_break ] ej : see , william , if you display any sort of weakness , you become vulnerable . you need to learn to protect yourself . will : what 's your weakness ? your family ? ej : what 's left of it . that was my father 's weakness too , you know . it 's always important to prepare yourself for the next attack . [ scene_break ] spencer : so ej fell out of favor with his father ? roman : yeah , well , actually , the fallout could 've happened both ways . spencer : i 'm listening . rafe : billie reed found out that stefano gave us the tip that helped clear john black of the embezzlement charges . spencer : i remember . roman : yeah , and she fed that information to ej , hoping he would say something to implicate himself in the plot . rafe : but he did n't , of course . spencer : that was the beginning of the end for stefano . rafe : seems so . roman : you see , ej 's plan to bring down john had been in the works for months . i mean , it was pretty much an airtight case , and then stefano shot the hell out of it . rafe : god , that had to have hurt ... to be betrayed by your own father like that , to have him choose his greatest enemy over you . [ scene_break ] ej : my father is gone , william . i have no choice but to take his place at the head of our family , our investments . there can be no doubt as to who is in charge . spencer : he definitely had motive , opportunity . question is , is ej dimera the kind of man to shoot his father in cold blood ? ej : excellent . when you 're finished , do me a favor . print those out and put them to one side for me . will : you want to keep them ? ej : of course . they 're about me . will : yeah , but they 're -- they 're a joke . it 's nothing substantial . they 're just speculating that you might be , i do n't know , taking over your father 's position , stepping into his shoes . ej : were you not listening to a word that i said earlier ? that 's exactly what i 'm doing . will : well , i ... know . i 'm just thinking about ... you know , chad . he 's a dimera too , and if i were him ... ej : what about chad ? he 's made it very clear he wants absolutely nothing to do with the family business . evidently , he thinks it 's beneath him . loyalty , william ... is something that is very important in this world , especially to me . will : i know . ej : do you really ? really ? 'cause it rather seems to me that you have forgotten that i was the person who encouraged you to go forward and clear your name in my father 's murder , and now you sit here and you 're insinuating -- insinuating that somehow i seem to be taking away from chad what 's rightfully his . will : that 's not what i 've been doing at all . i 'm not insinuating that . ej : may i ask you a question ? what do you see when you look at me ? will : um ... ej : do you see some , uh ... heartless bastard , some ... [ sighs ] some chip off the old block who just takes whatever he wants ? that -- is that what you see ? will : no . ej : well , you should , 'cause that 's who i am . that 's who i have to be . [ scene_break ] austin : ma ... i got ta tell you again . i am so sorry about stefano . kate : well , it is what it is , you know ? austin : no , no , no , no , no , no , no , do n't do that . kate : what ? austin : i know that you two were separated , and i also know that you loved him . kate : [ whispers ] yeah . well ... at least he did n't have to see his daughter die , right ? austin : carrie and i , we 're so sad about lexie . kate : i know , i know , the whole situation is tragic , there 's no way around it . anyway , we have good news though , do n't we ? finally , because this baby is going to be a blessing to the whole family . austin : absolutely , absolutely , and it 's what carrie and i have always wanted . i mean ... ma , can you believe it ? i mean , i 'm having a baby ! kate : i know , honey , i know , and you 're going to be a fantastic dad . austin : i hope so . kate : oh , come on , why would you say something like that ? austin : i just -- to be honest , look , i 've made a lot of mistakes in my marriage up to this point . kate : yeah , but you were not making those mistakes alone , and do n't you for one moment ever think that you were . austin : okay . carrie 's done her part too , but ... kate : but -- but what ? austin : but nothing , okay ? it 's like you said . everything is behind us now , and this baby is everything . things are good and they 're gon na stay that way , okay ? [ scene_break ] [ door closes ] rafe : hey . carrie : hi .

[ scene_break ] austin : well , do n't hate me , mom , but we 're gon na have to eat and run . kate : why ? austin : well , we just have a few things to do this morning . kate : well , those few things are just gon na have to wait , because i want to take carrie shopping . carrie : ooh . austin : since when ? kate : since right now . why , is there something wrong with that ? i want to spend a little time with my beautiful daughter - in - law . carrie : oh , kate , not that i do n't appreciate it , but you do n't have to do that . kate : no , i know i do n't , but you 're carrying my grandbaby , you know , so just think about it as i 'm spoiling the both of you from the very start . besides , i am not going to take no for an answer . carrie : well , i know better than to argue with you , so ... [ laughter ] kate : i hope so . well , my handsome son , go off . just stay out of trouble , okay , baby ? austin : i 'll try . bye , love you . carrie : mwah . austin : have fun . carrie : i will . kate : after you .

[ scene_break ] roman : will , what the hell are you doing here ? rafe : i thought you were fired . will : oh , yeah , i was , actually , but then we talked after ej posted my bail , and i 'm back . come on in . roman : how you holding up ? i mean , i saw the papers . headlines had to be rough . will : oh , it 's okay . i do n't care . they can say whatever they want . come on in , come on in . but i guess that 's -- that 's not why you 're here . spencer : no . i 'm agent spencer with the isa . i 've been assigned to oversee the investigation into mr. dimera 's death . i was hoping to check in with the mayor personally . is he home ? ej : he 's right here . uh , agent spencer ? spencer : mr. mayor . ej : i 'm very happy that you 're in charge of this investigation . spencer : you are ? ej : the salem police force have proven themselves to be quite impotent when it comes to finding my father 's killer . i hope you can do a better job . do you have any new leads on the suspect ? rafe : all depends on you , ej . ej : and how is it that i can help you find my father 's killer ? rafe : well , in cases like these , we find it helps to have an open line of communication with the immediate family . ej : i 'm the son of the victim , so i 'd rather hope you would keep me in the loop . rafe : no , right , right , of course , which is ... it 's normal , that people say that , but , from my experience , once , you know , people start talking and then answering the questions , they become ... uncomfortable , they get defensive , they put walls up when they feel like their privacy 's been compromised . ej : i do n't see any wagons circling , detective , and i have absolutely nothing to hide . roman : wow , if stefano could hear you now . a dimera with nothing to hide ? hell has frozen over . ej : if you have a question , i suggest you ask it . rafe : no , great . is it all right if maybe we , uh , sit down ? ej : sure . rafe : oh , god , that -- sorry about that . are you -- you never saw him that night , did you ? ej : no . rafe : you look a little pale , ej . [ stammering ] must be hard to see . so , uh ... is it the blood and gore , or are you truly sorry that he 's gone ? [ scene_break ] daniel : you 're good . you 're really good at this . i see what you 're doing here . nicole : really ? daniel : yeah , you 're turning the tables , accusing me of using sex . nicole : uh - oh , someone 's getting a little worked up , hmm ? it 's funny that i have to actually remind you it was n't sex . it was a kiss . you made that very , very clear . daniel : i made that very clear . yes , i did . nicole : yeah , mm - hmm . it 's funny , a man with your history getting all worked up over a little kiss . daniel : yeah , i did . okay , well , you know what ? a kiss can tell you a lot about a person . nicole : mm - hmm ? daniel : mm - hmm . nicole : okay , then you tell me , in a showdown between the tramp and the manwhore , who 's gon na come out on top ? daniel : wow , did you just call me a manwhore ? nicole : you still have n't answered my question . daniel : [ grunts ] you know , when i think about that kiss , whatever led up to it , whatever caused it to happen , that 's not really what i remember . nicole : no ? well , what do you remember ? daniel : the way it felt after , the heat from your body , and how , for a moment , i forgot to breathe , and the sensation of two people truly connected . yeah , that 's what i remember . nicole : well , now that we 're being honest ... that 's what i remember too .

[ scene_break ] nicole : looks like our cards are on the table . daniel : it appears so . nicole : mm - hmm . well , i 'm no saint , but it turns out , in spite of the white coat , neither are you . daniel : never said i was . nicole : [ laughs ] no . no , but people still see you that way , and i bet that they line up outside your door just to gaze into those eyes while you do everything you can to make them feel better . daniel : i do what i can . nicole : i bet you do . so tell me , doctor , the other day , did we break any doctor - patient rules ? daniel : rules ? nicole : mm - hmm . daniel : huh . well , now , here 's the problem . technically , you 're really not my patient anymore . nicole : oh . daniel : yeah . nicole : then what am i to you ? daniel : well , i think of you more as a , um ... co - conspirator . nicole : a co - conspirator ? daniel : uh - huh . nicole : i like it . daniel : good . [ scene_break ] [ door opens ] spencer : well , you really threw ej for a loop accidentally letting him see those photos . roman : you certainly put him on the defensive . he lost control for a minute . rafe : yeah , i 'm just sorry will was there to see it . roman : yeah , i know . i hate that he 's working for that son of a bitch . rafe : aw , sami ca n't be okay with that , can she ? roman : no , uh - uh , uh - uh . i mean , damn , the kid 's got enough on his plate . he does n't need to be in the middle of this . spencer : whatever this is , we still have no proof whatsoever that ej is the one that murdered stefano . rafe : yeah , well , guilty or not , i just hope that will sees ej for who and what he really is ... before it 's too late .

[ scene_break ] ej : here . you 're front page news . will : wow , i did n't ask for this , you know . ej : well , at least nobody thinks you 're a murderer . will : you know all this means is now the police are gon na focus on somebody else , right ? ej : yeah . i 'm counting on that . [ scene_break ] spencer : ej encouraged will to come forward with his alibi . roman : according to what will told us , yeah . spencer : hmm ... if ej had something to hide , you 'd think he 'd want a suspect in custody . rafe : yeah , well , he must 've known his case would n't hold up . spencer : what 've you got on junior ? rafe : junior -- oh . nothing , except stefano drew up a new will recently ... disinheriting junior . spencer : you 're serious ? rafe : oh , yeah . roman : yeah . but he was killed before he could sign it . spencer : any ideas why stefano wanted ej cut off from the family fortune ? [ scene_break ] ej : see , william , if you display any sort of weakness , you become vulnerable . you need to learn to protect yourself . will : what 's your weakness ? your family ? ej : what 's left of it . that was my father 's weakness too , you know . it 's always important to prepare yourself for the next attack . [ scene_break ] spencer : so ej fell out of favor with his father ? roman : yeah , well , actually , the fallout could 've happened both ways . spencer : i 'm listening . rafe : billie reed found out that stefano gave us the tip that helped clear john black of the embezzlement charges . spencer : i remember . roman : yeah , and she fed that information to ej , hoping he would say something to implicate himself in the plot . rafe : but he did n't , of course . spencer : that was the beginning of the end for stefano . rafe : seems so . roman : you see , ej 's plan to bring down john had been in the works for months . i mean , it was pretty much an airtight case , and then stefano shot the hell out of it . rafe : god , that had to have hurt ... to be betrayed by your own father like that , to have him choose his greatest enemy over you . [ scene_break ] ej : my father is gone , william . i have no choice but to take his place at the head of our family , our investments . there can be no doubt as to who is in charge . spencer : he definitely had motive , opportunity . question is , is ej dimera the kind of man to shoot his father in cold blood ? ej : excellent . when you 're finished , do me a favor . print those out and put them to one side for me . will : you want to keep them ? ej : of course . they 're about me . will : yeah , but they 're -- they 're a joke . it 's nothing substantial . they 're just speculating that you might be , i do n't know , taking over your father 's position , stepping into his shoes . ej : were you not listening to a word that i said earlier ? that 's exactly what i 'm doing . will : well , i ... know . i 'm just thinking about ... you know , chad . he 's a dimera too , and if i were him ... ej : what about chad ? he 's made it very clear he wants absolutely nothing to do with the family business . evidently , he thinks it 's beneath him . loyalty , william ... is something that is very important in this world , especially to me . will : i know . ej : do you really ? really ? 'cause it rather seems to me that you have forgotten that i was the person who encouraged you to go forward and clear your name in my father 's murder , and now you sit here and you 're insinuating -- insinuating that somehow i seem to be taking away from chad what 's rightfully his . will : that 's not what i 've been doing at all . i 'm not insinuating that . ej : may i ask you a question ? what do you see when you look at me ? will : um ... ej : do you see some , uh ... heartless bastard , some ...

[ scene_break ] brooke : you will never convince me that steffy had no part in hope 's getting stuck in the gondola . ridge : come on , logan . brooke : why was it steffy who went to pick up liam that night , the night of the bachelor party , to bring him home ? why ? taylor : maybe hope was n't available . that was the issue between hope and liam . brooke : no , no , hope was at the house ready to surprise liam . she was moving in . taylor : oh , and i 'm sure you think steffy probably knew about that , too . brooke : i have no idea what she knew about it . i just know that she 's been interfering in their relationship for quite some time . i am certain of that . taylor : no , no , what you do n't understand is that steffy and liam have had a very close friendship . he saved her life . they 've been confidants . brooke : oh , i am sure they were more than confidants . ridge : brooke , one thing is clear here -- there 's something between steffy and liam . call it chemistry . call it friendship , whatever you want . but i 'm certain that those two have very real feelings between the two of them . [ scene_break ] hope : you were desperate . your relationship with liam was on the line , so you did whatever you could to keep me from getting to the top of ajax . steffy : so i stopped the gondola ? how in the world could i do that ? liam , ca n't you see how insane this is ? come on . hope : insane , yeah , it is . but that 's exactly what happened . steffy : okay , so i was on the top of the mountain while you were riding the gondola . hope , how could i cause that kind of malfunction while i was with liam ? ! hope : look , liam , i do n't know how she did it . steffy : ( scoffs ) hope : i have no idea , but do n't you find it incredibly strange that at the exact time and place that you were supposed to meet me , steffy shows up with a wedding dress , a minister , a witness , wedding rings and then the gondola stops so i ca n't get to the top ? steffy : oh , come on , hope . gondolas stop all the time . you 're a skier . you should know this . liam , this is a desperate act by a woman who broke your heart and then changed her mind when she realized you and i were engaged . look , i realize that you still care for hope , and i am -- i 'm trying to be reasonable and sensitive , but this is going too far . liam : okay , all right , okay . look , look ... steffy : ( sighs ) liam : i 'm not gon na lie to you . steffy : mm - hmm . liam : i did think that i was up on that mountain to meet hope . i did n't know why she wanted to see me , but after all that time , i figured i owed her that , and it was strange when you walked up . it surprised me . it surprised me even more when you said you wanted to get married right there on the spot . so i am asking you , as my wife , did you know anything about that ? that she was in aspen trying to meet me ? did you -- did you find out somehow ? and if you did -- look at me . is that why you were so insistent that we get married right away ?

[ scene_break ] steffy : liam , what happened on that mountain was impulsive . that 's me . you -- know that . i did n't spend hour thinking about us getting married on top of a -- hope : steffy , you were thinking the whole time . from the second you found out that i was in aspen , you were scheming and manipulating . steffy : excuse me . you 've been manipulating liam the whole time ... hope : ( scoffs ) steffy : playing the virgin bride of hope for the future . liam , look at me . i would never , ever do something like that to you , and you know it . you waited too long for hope . her career was more important than you were . that 's why we got engaged right away . that is why i decided to marry you on top of that mountain . liam : so it had nothing to do with hope , keeping me away from her ? steffy : no . liam : and you had no idea that hope was in aspen looking for me ? steffy : no . liam : and you did not go up that mountain so you could get to me before she did ? steffy : ( sighs ) no . liam : and you had nothing to do with that gondola getting stuck . is that right ? steffy : no . hope : how can you do that ? how can you lie so blatantly to your own husband ? steffy : liam means everything to me . and i 'm gon na give him everything that you would n't . i 'm gon na be a lover , a friend . he 's gon na have true companionship . he will never , ever question my priorities . he will always be first with me , hope . liam , everything i 've done is because i love you . you will always , always be number one in my life .

( sighs ) ( sighs ) i made it bad when i overreacted to you and steffy kissing . but , liam , you made it worse . liam : yeah . i never should have kissed steffy in the first place . hope : i will take my fair share of the blame . i should have been straight with you . i should have told you that i was ready to move in and ready to make love to you . i - i 'll admit that i should n't have taken my ring off , and -- and refused to speak to you . and i should n't have run out of your house like a scared little girl . liam : hey . we 're talking now . hope : i did some really immature , foolish things i made some mistakes the past few days , but , liam , what you did ... i took off my ring , and then you gave it to steffy , and then the very next day , you committed your life to her on top of a mountain , and , liam , that takes stupidity to a whole new level . liam : hope , i do n't ... i do n't think i 'll ever be able to explain it to you . hope : that wedding happened . those vows were said , and i - i do n't know how you did it , liam , but somehow , you did . and maybe it 's a flaw in my character , but i respect marriage . i respect wedding vows and my body and my abstinence , and you may think i 'm a fool for being old - fashioned ... liam : no . hope : but i ca n't change who i am . liam : i do n't want you to change who you are . hope : you made a choice , liam . and as much as it hurts me , i will respect it . i may never love another man as much as i 've loved you , but you 're married to steffy now . your life is with her . so good - bye , liam . and good luck . ( elevator bell dings ) hope : ( sobs ) ( sobs )Summarize.[/INST]as seriously as he is capable , liam asks steffy if she knew hope was in aspen and trapped in the gondola so she could not get to him on the mountain top he 'd like to know if steffy had anything to do with that . she sidesteps the question and reminds liam that they flew to aspen for a romantic getaway . she had no reason to believe that hope would follow them there since no one but bill knew that is where they were headed . she turns to hope and says she was with the man she loved , and that is all that mattered . they were enjoying the moment and falling in love . so this questioning is not fair to either of them . she scoffs at the idea that she could be at the top of the mountain and yet make the gondola stop . she tells liam that she is trying to be reasonable here , but hope is taking this too far in making her responsible for what happened . ridge tells brooke that he does n't believe her conspiracy theory that steffy caused the gondola to stop . that would mean that liam was a fool and he does not believe that is the case . she retorts that it is all about steffy and her seduction . she has this affect on men and ridge needs to realize that . despite the door being closed , taylor interrupts and is dismayed that brooke talked to liam and encouraged hope to talk to him and now she finds out that steffy is in the meeting too . ridge repeats again that he does n't like this . both of his daughters is in love with the same man , and one of them is going to be hurt . he hates what this is doing to them , and he is not going to take sides . brooke says okay , they will just let the chips fall where they may and let the three of them work this out .</s> | 5,752 |

[ exhales sharply ] mia : and anytime nicole saw me , she 'd always remind that i could never tell anyone about giving her my baby . so that meant that i had to lie too . and i hate myself for that , 'cause i lied to people i truly care about . chad : when i found out about my girlfriend being pregnant with my baby , i wanted custody , you know ? okay , i was still in school , but i wanted to raise my kid . but i never got the chance ... because that woman lied to me ... her husband ... the whole damn world . ej : i loved my wife . i love sydney . i thought we had a -- we had a perfect family , really . she made a mockery of that . it was all based on lies . sami : she actually cried ... right by my side ... about grace when she died . she told me she was heartbroken . she said she felt horrible . she was right there with me ... and yet she never , not once ... told me the truth . mia : so she made me lie ... about sleeping with lots of different guys . not one word of it was true . but i had to ... or at least she made me think i did . and it was all so she could keep lying about sydney . ej : and then when she knew the game was up , she tried to leave the country with my daughter . she was actually on an airplane when she was stopped . sami : and now my little girl has been kidnapped all over again . nicole took her . right out from under us , she took her ... because she wanted her . and because of what nicole did , someone else came in and stole sydney . she 's gone . my little girl has been kidnapped , and we do n't know where she is . we do n't know if we 're ever gon na see her again , and it is all because of nicole .

[ scene_break ] brady : nicole did n't realize that she had actually lost the baby until i came into the clinic ... into that room and told her . your honor , her eyes -- i - i do n't believe i 've ever seen pain like that in my life . it was as if the pain cut right through her mind and through her heart . i think , on some level , your honor , she , uh -- she went insane . you see , she loved ej dimera so much , and she cherished that little girl so deeply ... there was a total disconnect . it 's as if she , uh -- she truly thought she gave birth to sydney . whenever she spoke about her , that 's what she believed in her heart . but that 's over now , and the truth is out . and now nicole still suffers . your honor , there 's no sentence that you could hand down today that would be any worse than what she 's feeling right now . and it is my hope that you realize that she 's suffered enough . i only ask that you be kind , please . she deserves mercy . sami : [ scoffs ] judge goldberg : mrs. dimera , if this is n't something you can handle , you may be excused . it will not be held against you if you choose not to testify . nicole : no , i ... i want you to know ... i want everyone to know ... that there 's no excuse for what i did . what i did was terrible , unforgivable , and i hurt so many people . it 's like every choice i made was wrong and disastrous . your honor , giving me the worst sentence you can think of is what i deserve . i know it , and i accept it . and i do n't -- i do n't care if i go to prison for the rest of my life . all -- [ inhales deeply ] all i care about is sydney and bringing her home ... because she is the sweetest , most precious -- [ sobbing ] oh , my god . oh , god , i 'm sorry . i 'm so sorry . [ scene_break ] stephanie : okay , so that 's over -- your melanie - chasing fantasy . so now what ? nathan : depends on you . not that i expect you to want to hang out with me again . i mean , what i did was stupid and -- and rotten and ... you know , if you 're the type of person that gives second chances , then ... hey , you know where to find me . stephanie : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] philip : what kind of favor are we talking about here , mel ? you changing your mind ? you want a big church wedding ? melanie : no . no . no , absolutely not . um ... i was just thinking when we come back from vegas , we 're gon na have to face a lot of people . there are gon na be a lot of explanations they 're gon na want . philip : probably . melanie : so i was hoping maybe we could just ... skip that and honeymoon in europe . philip : that 's your favor ? melanie : mm - hmm . philip : sure , why not ? melanie : that 's not all . when we 're in europe , i want to show you all of the places i lived and partied and got guys to cough up money , 'cause i want you to know all about me -- i mean , the real me . philip : it does n't scare me . melanie : you sure ? there are a lot of places i have to show you . it could take months . philip : it could take years , for all i care . let 's do it .

[ exhales sharply ] mia : and anytime nicole saw me , she 'd always remind that i could never tell anyone about giving her my baby . so that meant that i had to lie too . and i hate myself for that , 'cause i lied to people i truly care about . chad : when i found out about my girlfriend being pregnant with my baby , i wanted custody , you know ? okay , i was still in school , but i wanted to raise my kid . but i never got the chance ... because that woman lied to me ... her husband ... the whole damn world . ej : i loved my wife . i love sydney . i thought we had a -- we had a perfect family , really . she made a mockery of that . it was all based on lies . sami : she actually cried ... right by my side ... about grace when she died . she told me she was heartbroken . she said she felt horrible . she was right there with me ... and yet she never , not once ... told me the truth . mia : so she made me lie ... about sleeping with lots of different guys . not one word of it was true . but i had to ... or at least she made me think i did . and it was all so she could keep lying about sydney . ej : and then when she knew the game was up , she tried to leave the country with my daughter . she was actually on an airplane when she was stopped . sami : and now my little girl has been kidnapped all over again . nicole took her . right out from under us , she took her ... because she wanted her . and because of what nicole did , someone else came in and stole sydney . she 's gone . my little girl has been kidnapped , and we do n't know where she is . we do n't know if we 're ever gon na see her again , and it is all because of nicole .

[ scene_break ] philip : what are you thinking about ? melanie : mm ... that when we make love , it 's like nothing else matters . philip : i do what i can to bring joy to this world .

[ chuckles ] i did some major thinking when i was in that jail cell , and i realized that it was n't even melanie that i was chasing . it was -- it was a fantasy , and i 'm done with that . [ scene_break ] melanie : mm , i could do this all day . philip : me too . hey , i got a great idea . let 's get our honeymoon started early . melanie : no . i have a favor to ask you . [ scene_break ] brady : nicole did n't realize that she had actually lost the baby until i came into the clinic ... into that room and told her . your honor , her eyes -- i - i do n't believe i 've ever seen pain like that in my life . it was as if the pain cut right through her mind and through her heart . i think , on some level , your honor , she , uh -- she went insane . you see , she loved ej dimera so much , and she cherished that little girl so deeply ... there was a total disconnect . it 's as if she , uh -- she truly thought she gave birth to sydney . whenever she spoke about her , that 's what she believed in her heart . but that 's over now , and the truth is out . and now nicole still suffers . your honor , there 's no sentence that you could hand down today that would be any worse than what she 's feeling right now . and it is my hope that you realize that she 's suffered enough . i only ask that you be kind , please . she deserves mercy . sami : [ scoffs ] judge goldberg : mrs. dimera , if this is n't something you can handle , you may be excused . it will not be held against you if you choose not to testify . nicole : no , i ... i want you to know ... i want everyone to know ... that there 's no excuse for what i did . what i did was terrible , unforgivable , and i hurt so many people . it 's like every choice i made was wrong and disastrous . your honor , giving me the worst sentence you can think of is what i deserve . i know it , and i accept it . and i do n't -- i do n't care if i go to prison for the rest of my life . all -- [ inhales deeply ] all i care about is sydney and bringing her home ... because she is the sweetest , most precious -- [ sobbing ] oh , my god . oh , god , i 'm sorry . i 'm so sorry . [ scene_break ] stephanie : okay , so that 's over -- your melanie - chasing fantasy . so now what ? nathan : depends on you . not that i expect you to want to hang out with me again . i mean , what i did was stupid and -- and rotten and ... you know , if you 're the type of person that gives second chances , then ... hey , you know where to find me . stephanie : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] philip : what kind of favor are we talking about here , mel ? you changing your mind ? you want a big church wedding ? melanie : no . no . no , absolutely not . um ... i was just thinking when we come back from vegas , we 're gon na have to face a lot of people . there are gon na be a lot of explanations they 're gon na want . philip : probably . melanie : so i was hoping maybe we could just ... skip that and honeymoon in europe . philip : that 's your favor ? melanie : mm - hmm . philip : sure , why not ? melanie : that 's not all . when we 're in europe , i want to show you all of the places i lived and partied and got guys to cough up money , 'cause i want you to know all about me -- i mean , the real me . philip : it does n't scare me . melanie : you sure ? there are a lot of places i have to show you . it could take months . philip : it could take years , for all i care . let 's do it .

[ sighs ] molly : is that why you 're here ? does it have something to do with that case ? carly : franco , you 've got to calm down . franco : i will calm down when he explains to me why he had his arms around you . carly : this is a kids ' day camp . franco : sonny , i 'm asking you a question . carly : do n't answer him . okay ? do n't answer him . do n't engage . please . sonny : get your boyfriend away from me . franco : and you -- so much for keeping your distance from sonny . carly : are you for real ? i did n't plan this with sonny . it was a coincidence . we ran into each other . franco : yeah ? he spends a lot of time hanging around kids ' day camps ? that something you do ? carly : no , franco . he 's visiting his nephew . franco : could n't find his nephew , so he needed a hug ? i get that right ? carly : of course not . that 's ... sonny : do i have to stay here for this ? franco : yeah , you do . you 're not going anywhere . carly : enough . before you walked up and saw a friendly hug , i was explaining to sonny how much i care about you . franco : oh , really , 'cause i do n't think sonny got that memo . michael : the , uh , work crews i hired to refurbish the other houses left behind some tools and paint , so first , we need to scrape the walls and put on a fresh coat . morgan : uh - huh , and by `` we `` ... michael : i mean you . morgan : awesome . michael : i think it 's all gon na be worth it once this place is fixed up . morgan : yeah . yeah , nice . you know , it 's a nice house . michael : [ sighs ] you know , since the crash in ' 08 , this whole area 's fallen on some pretty hard times , but with this new project , we 're gon na revitalize it and make it a real neighborhood again . what ? morgan : i do n't know . my brother the c.e.o . michael : yeah . morgan : proud of you , man . and i - i really appreciate you letting me in on it , you know , even if i do have to barter highly specialized labor to crash at a place . michael : yeah . well , i 'm happy to help , and i 'm happy you let me help . morgan : yeah . [ chuckles ] it 's been a hell of a year , huh ? michael : mm . morgan : everything that 's happened with , you know , dad and ava and , uh , the baby -- it 's kind of -- it 's kind of nice to have something to focus on , you know ? michael : yeah , it is .

[ door closes ] morgan : yep , i 'm gon na need it . tracy : look , i have to admit -- as much has i hate being away from you , this was a brilliant idea -- coming back , hat in hand , telling michael and that ignorant slut kiki that they were right about you all along . oh , my god , they ate it up like candy . they are such saps . they have absolutely no idea they 're giving me everything i need to take elq back from michael . i 'm gon na take michael down from the inside .

i 'm so grateful that you helped me with luke the perv , and it was really nice to be able to turn to you for that . morgan : well , i 'm glad to be of assistance -- unless i was n't . kiki : no . i 'm sorry . you were . it 's just unfortunate because now that i do n't have to worry about luke , i 'm worrying about something else . my cousin rafe . rafe : i just want to say i 'm sorry . molly : oh . uh , thank you , but you already said you were sorry about my father . rafe : no . well , i mean , i am sorry about your dad , but that 's not what i -- look , molly , i 'm -- i 'm sorry for the way i acted towards you . okay , and i 'm sorry i ratted you and tj out to your mom when i saw you at the metro court . molly : [ sighs ] okay . rafe : [ sighs ] look , it 's just when i saw you guys together , i - i got so jealous , and it hurt . and i know you did n't mean to , but -- i do n't know . i guess i just thought if i made you hurt , too , it would make me feel better . molly : and did it make you feel better ?

sam : really ? you remember someone bringing in a car that meets that description ? bill : yeah , some -- there was -- somebody brought it in right at the end of april . uh , it was a black sports coupe , and it was scraped all along the passenger side . sam : great , that 's probably the car we 're looking for . do you remember who brought it in , what he or she looked like ? bill : you know , somebody else did the intake and the hand - off . i just remember seeing the car around the shop , so ... sam : well , the employee that did the intake , the hand - off -- are they here ? bill : he 's not here . uh , i 'm the only one here right now , so if you want the customer name , i 'll have to look it up on the computer . sam : yes . yes , please . by all means , look it up on the computer . thank you . thank you . bill : no . sonny : you got a smart mouth , franco . franco : yeah , let me guess . you gon na shut it for me ? sonny : eventually , i probably will , but that 's not the problem i have with you . the problem i have with you is you 've tortured the people that i care about . franco : i had a brain tumor . sonny : oh , i know that -- the medical excuse for saving your ass in court , but you know what ? it still does n't excuse that you made the people that i care about suffer . carly : can we not get into this ? sonny : get him out of my face ! i know you think he 's a saint . but you know what ? he 's the same freak ... that he 's always been . franco : maybe you should watch the way you talk to me . sonny : the only reason you 're still walking around is because she cares about you , and i care about her . franco : oh , everyone knows how much you care about carly , the mother of your children , the woman who 's keeping the secret for you , the woman that knows that you killed aj . we not talking about that ? carly : no . franco : maybe you should stop and think for a second , sonny , because i know your secret , too , so maybe i 'm someone that you should n't mess with . sam : but , bill , come on . you -- you 've helped us out this far . bill : i should n't have done that much . sam : please , just go into the computer and find the person responsible for the damaged car . please ? bill : [ sighs ] patrick : okay , i know how this works . hmm ? what do you want , billy ? you want $ 100 ? bill : put your wallet away , sir . patrick : you want me to write you a check ? bill : you know what ? i do n't know who you 're used to dealing with , but now you 're insulting me . sam : oh , no , we do n't mean to insult you -- we do n't . we 're just a little bit confused ... patrick : pissed off is what we are . sam : ... and frustrated . please , help us out . please ? bill : i 'm sure you understand the value of privacy in business . if i start giving out personal information on my customers , pretty soon , i do n't have a business . sam : no , of course we understand . maybe you would change your mind if you knew that this was a special case . bill : oh , yeah . you know , everybody thinks their case is special . sam : okay , why do n't you hear me out , and then you decide ? the car that we are talking about was involved in an accident , and it ran another car off the road and fled the scene , and we 're hoping that if we find the car , we 'll find the person that was responsible for the accident . bill : this sounds like a matter for the police . are you a cop ? carly : franco , we need to go now . franco : not until i hear from sonny how much he appreciates what i 've done for him -- what i 'm still doing for him . carly : he knows , okay ? sonny : let me -- hey . let me hear it . i want to hear what he 's got to say about this -- franco : i heard a recording of you killing a man , and i have kept my mouth shut about it . in exchange for my discretion , i would appreciate it if you would keep your hands off of my girlfriend . sonny : [ chuckles ] how am i supposed to answer that ? how -- how long do i have to keep putting up with this ? carly : you know , i do n't want to get into a big fight about this . it 's not good for us . sonny : how long are you gon na keep protecting him ? honestly ? franco : is this a private conversation , or do ... carly : you know what ? franco : ... you think i can join in ? carly : you are completely overreacting . franco : i 'm not talking to you . i want to hear it from sonny . michael : please do n't tell me you 're looking for a , uh , pen . tracy : a pen . michael : right , 'cause that 's what everybody says when they get caught snooping . tracy : oh , no , i was n't snooping . michael : they also say that . tracy : no , i , uh , needed a pen to sign these . michael : pen ? tracy : thank you . michael : which are ... ? tracy : my annulment papers from luke spencer . michael : right , and you could n't sign them anywhere else but here on my desk in my office with my pen ? tracy : well , yes , of course , i could , but you wanted proof that i was ... through with luke , and here it is , fresh from my lawyers . michael : you got an annulment that quickly ? tracy : i did because luke married me , uh , under false pretenses , and i 'm a quartermaine . michael : fair enough . tracy : i got an annulment based on fraud ... and all i have to do is sign on the dotted line ... and this hideous mistake of a marriage will be as if it never happened . so , i want you to watch me do this . voilà . done . goodbye , luke spencer , and hello , elq , if you 'll have me . levi : so , what do you think of that ? maxie : well , it looks like elq 's turning all those old , run - down waterfront buildings into high - end apartments , boutiques , and sidewalk cafés . levi : exactly . so , what do you think of elq now ? maxie : well , i think that that 's great . i mean , i love shopping and food . [ chuckles ] ooh , maybe when my lease is up , we could rent one of these apartments . levi : you do n't see what 's wrong with this picture ? maxie : oh , after hanging that poster , i might not get my security deposit back ? i bet mac will help you cover all the nail holes . levi : maxie , this is n't about you getting an apartment in the new waterfront district . maxie : then what is this about ? levi : the waterfront district . maxie : what 's wrong with a brand - new waterfront ? levi : what 's wrong is that when people are paying $ 500 for pairs of shoes and $ 10 for a cappuccino and paying these exorbitant amounts of money in rent , what happens to the little guy ? maxie : what little guy ? levi : the little guy who ca n't afford to live in the neighborhood anymore . maxie : oh . i did n't really think about it like that . levi : maxie , this is what we need to focus on . we need to fight for the little guy who ca n't fight for himself . we need to put a stop to this project . morgan : um , what 's wrong with rafe ? kiki : [ sighs ] he 's in trouble . morgan : what kind of trouble ? kiki : when i saw him at my dad 's , he seemed to be in a bad way . morgan : well , can you be more specific ? like , is he upset about a girl or going on a crime spree ? kiki : uh , a little bit of both . i - i think he -- i mean , he 's not over molly , but it 's -- it 's worse than that . he stole money from sam , and i told him that he should just admit it to her , but ... morgan : well , i - i mean , i hope he listens , 'cause sam 's not gon na judge . i mean , she 's been through some shady moments in her past . she 's not one to , you know , judge anyone 's screw - ups . kiki : i - i know . i - i do n't -- i do n't think he 's afraid to tell her that he stole the money . i think he 's afraid to tell her why . morgan : why ? why did he do it ? kiki : i do n't know . he would n't tell me . but i -- what can be so bad that he would n't be able to tell sam ? sam loves him . she would n't -- she would n't just cut him off because of some stupid mistake . whatever it is , it ca n't be as bad as it seems . molly : yes . i forgive you . rafe : really ? molly : as long as you finally , finally understand and accept that i am with tj , and that 's not gon na change . rafe : yes , yes , i absolutely understand and accept that . okay , and i know i 've said that before , but this time it 's different , molly . you know , the only thing worse than not being able to be your boyfriend has been not having you as a friend . molly : yeah , i miss that , too . rafe : then do you think -- i do n't know -- i 'd -- i 'd really love it if we could go back to that . you know , when we first met , bonding over `` a streetcar named desire . `` molly : when you gave me the flower from the table at kelly 's and called it `` flores para los muertos . `` rafe : `` flowers for the dead . `` sam : no , i 'm -- i 'm not a cop . i 'm a p.i . , and i have been hired to work this case , so any information that you could give me would be a great help . bill : well , you know , i 'd like to help you . i mean that . but i ca n't compromise my customer base , okay ? patrick : [ scoffs ] bill : [ sighs ] look , why do n't you go to the police , get a warrant , and come back ? i 'll give you all the information you need , ready and waiting here for you , once i know everything is on the up - and - up . sam : okay . okay . fair enough . patrick : fair enough , sam ? sam : let 's just go outside , breathe , give nathan a call . see if he can help us . patrick : how long is that gon na take ? sam : i do n't know . it 's his case . he 's gon na want to close this fast . trust me . thank you for your time , bill . patrick : i 'm sorry , sir . i got to talk to you for a second . bill : you know , if you 're gon na offer me money for information again -- patrick : i am sorry that i insulted you . i - i admire your ethics . bill : oh , yeah . do you , now ? patrick : i do , and if you just understood the circumstance , i think you would make a different decision . please , it 's a matter of life and death . bill : a matter of life and death ? patrick : yes . bill : yeah , the accident was in april . it 's almost fourth of july . patrick : i understand that . bill : yeah , well , why is it suddenly a matter of life and death ? sam : hey , patrick , we do n't need to do this right now . we can call nathan . patrick : sam , that 's gon na take too long . sam : maybe an hour . that 's it . patrick : or maybe a day or a week , or maybe it 's not gon na happen . listen , i know that you 're reluctant to give your customers ' private information away -- i do . bill : okay , well , then why do n't you stop asking and listen to the lady ? patrick : because the person that was driving this car -- the car that we 're looking for -- they ran my family off the road . my 8-year - old daughter was in the car . a woman that i care very much for was in the car , also , and she was pregnant with my baby , okay ? because of the accident , she had the baby premature -- four months -- on the side of the road , and the baby died . bill : well , i 'm very sorry for your loss . patrick : the car did n't stop . they did n't call for help . they hit the guardrail , and they kept going , so i think you can understand that i need to find the person who was driving this car . rafe : i 'm really sorry about your dad again . he seemed like a cool guy ... in a terrifying kind of way , though . what made him seem so cool was i could tell he really loved you . molly : thank you . i just -- i ca n't get used to the idea that he 's never coming back . you know , when someone 's gone , they 're gone forever . there 's no way to bring them back . rafe : i 'm gon na go . molly : well , are you sure you do n't want to wait ? rafe : yeah , i 'll -- i 'll talk to sam later . see you later . kiki : i just wish rafe had confided in me . i know we have n't known each other long , but we 're still family . that 's what i 'm here for . morgan : [ chuckles ] kiki : what ? morgan : no , i just -- i think it 's nice that you 're so concerned . kiki : well , it 's nice for me , too . i 'm an only child . morgan : that you know of . kiki : [ chuckles ] really , though , i only grew up with my mom . i did n't have any cousins . i did n't have an uncle or known mob connections . morgan : well , and now your life is an embarrassment of riches . kiki : [ sighs ] my whole life , i just grew up wanting a brother or a sister that i could talk to and confide in . morgan : yeah . it was , you know -- it was great having mikey when i was growing up . even , you know , when we were little , he took care of -- of molly and kristina and me and now joss . go figure why he 's so serious . kiki : [ chuckles ] yeah . he 's pretty serious . morgan : yeah . i - i could talk to him about anything , though . he -- he always had my back . he was the one person that understood all the craziness that came with having sonny and carly corinthos as parents and what it was like to be part of that family , which , weirdly enough , now you and i are sort of family . kiki : um , yeah . i guess . the way we got there was n't exactly conventional , but ... morgan : no . kiki : i am really glad to have you back in my life . morgan : well , never really left it . kiki : [ chuckles ] it 's nice to be a part of your family , too . morgan : [ chuckles ] well , since you are a part of my family , then you wo n't mind helping me with this . michael : well , i 'm no lawyer , but everything seems to be in order . tracy : michael , by all means , have your lawyers review them . uh , i 'm sure they 'll find it 's completely aboveboard . michael : i - i do n't have any doubts . [ inhales deeply ] so [ exhales deeply ] in that case , welcome back to elq . tracy : [ exhales deeply ] thank you , michael . michael : yeah . tracy : i think this is gon na be the start of a very productive relationship . i ca n't wait to start work . michael : yeah , i 'm sure elq will be all the better for your return . tracy : thank you for saying that . i will make sure of it . um , by the way , when i was looking for the pen , i could n't help but notice this waterfront project . it looks exciting . would you mind if i took a look at it ? sonny : you -- you think i owe you something for your silence ? franco : i would appreciate it if you would show me a little appreciation . sonny : you above ground ? you walking around ? no broken ribs . your -- your lungs are breathing in , you know , air instead of water . you 're welcome . franco : as much as i would like to thank you for not killing me , i 'm pretty sure the only reason you 're doing that is because of carly . sonny : you got a problem with -- with my -- you know , me and my ex - wife , you know , the mother of my children , that 's fine by me . i 'll just -- i 'll just dump your sorry ass in the trunk of a car and watch that machine squeeze you into , like , a -- it 's like a little cube . carly : no , you wo n't . you -- you need to trust me . franco : i do trust you , carly . carly : [ scoffs ] franco : i just need to hear from him that he 's gon na keep his distance from you . sonny : or else what , franco ? franco : maybe i wo n't remain silent . sonny : okay , so , as you can see , your threats -- they do n't really do anything to me , so whatever you want to hear , forget it . franco : do n't say i did n't warn you . carly : franco ? franco ! sonny : [ exhales deeply ] rafe : flores para los muertos . flowers for the dead .

[ chuckles ] morgan : yeah , it 's not just for free rent . it 's a good cause , too . kiki : it 's a great cause . what is that cause , again ? morgan : uh , urban renewal . i do n't know . [ both chuckle ] kiki : yeah , awesome cause . morgan : what project has mikey gotten us into right now ? levi : that 's what we 'd like to know . we read about your so - called revitalization project in the paper , and we 're here to shut it down . carly : i am sorry about that . i really am . sonny : i do n't need an apology . i just need you to keep a leash on your boyfriend . carly : you can not take what franco said seriously . sonny : why are you even with that psycho ? after everything he 's done , carly ? carly : he 's changed , sonny . sonny : changed ? carly : yes . sonny : yeah , he 's changed . i do n't see he 's changed . carly : he 's upset . sonny : he 's upset ? carly : yeah . sonny : because why ? 'cause he caught me hugging you ? carly : you know what ? i do n't want to have that conversation with you . you both bring out the worst in each other , and for that reason alone , i am going to keep you guys as far apart as possible . sonny : okay , where do you think he 's going right now ? to the cops ? carly : no . no . come on . trust me , all right ? franco 's not gon na tell anyone that you shot aj . michael : franco . michael : hello , michael . before you call security , i just need a minute of your time . | levi tells maxie that the elq waterfront renovation project is an example of corporate greed pushing out the little guy and that they should fight for the little guy . michael takes morgan to bobbie 's former brownstone and says that his brother can live there rent - free , but he will have to renovate it himself . morgan is happy to have something to focus on besides sonny , ava , and the baby . kiki stops by after michael leaves and tells morgan that she wants in on his deal . she reveals that rafe is in trouble and that she is worried about him . rafe apologizes to molly for all the hurtful things he did to her and tj out of jealousy . she forgives him . sam takes a sample of the paint on the guard rail to find out if anyone tried to match it at a local car repair shop . they find the shop but bill , the owner , does n't want to give out client information . patrick pleads his case . bill allows sam to retrieve the information from his computer . sam is shocked by what she finds . rafe goes to the crash site and places flowers by the guardrail for the dead baby . | <s>[INST] maxie : [ sighs ] i 'm never gon na be able to stop thinking about georgie , and i do n't know how i 'm gon na make it through the next six months . levi : you 'll make it . maxie : how ? levi : remember when we first met ? you did n't think you were gon na make it then , either . but i got you focused on helping others , and it ended up helping you . maxie : yeah . and that was amazing . but how could we do something like that in port charles ? levi : the answer is right here . maxie : what is it ? what 's the answer ? levi : this article about elq . tracy : [ chuckles ] great news . i 'm in michael 's office , and he is nowhere to be found . michael : [ exhales deeply ] remember this place ? morgan : uh , yeah , vaguely . grandma bobbie 's brownstone . michael : yeah . what do you think ? morgan : uh , i think maybe you should have hired a cleaning crew . michael : oh , i did . morgan : oh , okay . well , uh , where are they ? because they suck . oh . okay . michael : no , i figured all those years in military school might have taught you something about maintaining an orderly space . morgan : uh - huh . michael : so , if you do n't mind sharing , uh , your renovation duties with a few spiders ... morgan : all right , well , i guess i 'm gon na start upstairs , then , because i do n't want to find any eight - legged guests in my bed . michael : well , uh , the upstairs is all set -- new sheets and everything . morgan : oh , perfect . then i 'm definitely gon na start upstairs . michael : the big problem is , uh , down here . i - i know -- i know it looks bad . morgan : yeah . you know , this just is n't what i signed up for , mikey . thanks , though . i 'll see you , all right ? you really fell for that , dude ? come on . i 'm -- you do n't think i 'm -- i 'm that big of a jerk , do you ? michael : uh , well -- morgan : okay . you know what ? do n't answer that , please . michael : [ chuckles ] so , you 're okay with this ? morgan : yes . you 're giving me a place free of rent , man . even if it is a little dingy , you know , it 's a lot better than living with mom and franco . carly : look , i am with franco , but i 'm -- but i 'm here if you ever need me . sonny : i know . it 's just like , right now , it 's like i 've never needed anybody more , you know ? carly : [ sighs ] franco : what the hell is going on here ? what are you doing ? what -- what are you doing ? [ knock on door ] molly : [ sighs ] [ sniffles ] rafe : uh , molly . i - i did n't know you 'd be here . molly : uh , yeah . i 'm staying with sam . rafe : oh , okay . i 'm -- i 'm really sorry about your dad . molly : thank you . rafe : molly , can i come in ? look , i - i really need to talk to sam . if i do n't tell her what 's been going on , i think i 'll go nuts . molly : uh , i 'm sorry . sam 's not here . rafe : oh . well , d - do you know where she is ? molly : uh , yeah , actually , i think she just went to go meet patrick to work on his case . sam : we do n't know how badly the other car was damaged , but chances are he or she would want to cover their tracks . i 'm sure they would know that the police would be looking for a car with damage on it . patrick : so they 're gon na go get it fixed quick , right ? sam : yes , so i 'm thinking that we go to every local body shop and car- detailing place and see if we ca n't find that maybe somebody is looking for paint like this . i mean , i think it 's a long shot . it 's not gon na be easy , but it may lead us to the person who caused the accident that killed your little boy . patrick : i do n't care if it 's a long shot . if this leads us to the person that ran me off the road , i 'm gon na search from here to niagara falls . sam : well , i say we find the garage -- we 'll find our killer . patrick : there 's at least 30 body shops within port charles and surrounding area . how are we supposed to find the one where the guy took the car ? sam : i realize it 's a long list , but based on these tire marks , i think that we 're looking for a sports car and a custom shop . patrick : okay , so , still , how many of those are there ? sam : wait a minute . this is a back road . patrick : yeah , a car has n't passed us the whole time we 've been here . sam : okay , so most likely , the only people traveling these roads are gon na be locals . i say whoever caused this accident probably lives within a 10-mile radius . patrick : okay , so a custom body shop within 10 miles from here ? sam : yeah . okay . that would ... be only three . patrick : what are we waiting for ? rafe : so , sam 's with dr. drake ? molly : uh , yeah . i think so . the police hit a dead end in their investigation , and sam is gon na help patrick figure out who ran him and sabrina off the road . rafe : yeah . uh , she told me . molly : i still ca n't believe someone would swerve into their lane , cause them to crash , and then just drive away . who would do something like that ? rafe : i know , right ? [ sighs ] molly : is that why you 're here ? does it have something to do with that case ? carly : franco , you 've got to calm down . franco : i will calm down when he explains to me why he had his arms around you . carly : this is a kids ' day camp . franco : sonny , i 'm asking you a question . carly : do n't answer him . okay ? do n't answer him . do n't engage . please . sonny : get your boyfriend away from me . franco : and you -- so much for keeping your distance from sonny . carly : are you for real ? i did n't plan this with sonny . it was a coincidence . we ran into each other . franco : yeah ? he spends a lot of time hanging around kids ' day camps ? that something you do ? carly : no , franco . he 's visiting his nephew . franco : could n't find his nephew , so he needed a hug ? i get that right ? carly : of course not . that 's ... sonny : do i have to stay here for this ? franco : yeah , you do . you 're not going anywhere . carly : enough . before you walked up and saw a friendly hug , i was explaining to sonny how much i care about you . franco : oh , really , 'cause i do n't think sonny got that memo . michael : the , uh , work crews i hired to refurbish the other houses left behind some tools and paint , so first , we need to scrape the walls and put on a fresh coat . morgan : uh - huh , and by `` we `` ... michael : i mean you . morgan : awesome . michael : i think it 's all gon na be worth it once this place is fixed up . morgan : yeah . yeah , nice . you know , it 's a nice house . michael : [ sighs ] you know , since the crash in ' 08 , this whole area 's fallen on some pretty hard times , but with this new project , we 're gon na revitalize it and make it a real neighborhood again . what ? morgan : i do n't know . my brother the c.e.o . michael : yeah . morgan : proud of you , man . and i - i really appreciate you letting me in on it , you know , even if i do have to barter highly specialized labor to crash at a place . michael : yeah . well , i 'm happy to help , and i 'm happy you let me help . morgan : yeah . [ chuckles ] it 's been a hell of a year , huh ? michael : mm . morgan : everything that 's happened with , you know , dad and ava and , uh , the baby -- it 's kind of -- it 's kind of nice to have something to focus on , you know ? michael : yeah , it is . [ sighs ] so , if you 're all set here ... morgan : yeah . michael : ... i 'm gon na head back to the office . morgan : yeah . yeah , i should probably get to work , too , so while you 're pushing papers behind your desk , i 'll be here , beautifying the world . michael : right . good luck . [ door closes ] morgan : yep , i 'm gon na need it . tracy : look , i have to admit -- as much has i hate being away from you , this was a brilliant idea -- coming back , hat in hand , telling michael and that ignorant slut kiki that they were right about you all along . oh , my god , they ate it up like candy . they are such saps . they have absolutely no idea they 're giving me everything i need to take elq back from michael . i 'm gon na take michael down from the inside . [ computer beeps ] tracy : ugh ! i have to make michael look so incompetent that those traitors who replaced me with him will change their tune and vote me back in as elq 's c.e.o . i just -- to find the right weapon . [ computer beeps ] tracy : ugh ! i ca n't get into michael 's computer without the password . i 'll have that , uh , geek in i.t . , mitty -- smitty -- that 's it . i 'll have him work on it . it 's gon na take some time , though . [ computer beeps ] tracy : ugh . `` waterfront revitalization project . `` what have we here ? levi : what is elq , anyway ? these corporations who hide behind their abbreviated names . they hide behind letters so that no one figures out who they really are or what they 're up to . they 're so far removed from actual people , they do n't -- they do n't even sound human . maxie : [ chuckles ] elq happens to be very human . levi : maxie , corporations are not people . maxie : levi , any idiot knows that . elq was started by one person , though -- edward louis quartermaine . and he was a good person . levi : for a greedy capitalist ? maxie : i 'm sorry -- did you know edward quartermaine ? levi : did you ? maxie : yes . well , not super well , but i happen to know that he was a good man . in fact , one of his last acts on earth was completely unselfish . levi : what ? he donated a big amount to charity ? maxie : there was a donation , but it was n't money . a few years ago , there was this psycho who poisoned port charles ' water supply , and they found a cure , but they could only make a little bit of it at a time . levi : let me guess -- mr. elq was first in line ? maxie : as a matter of fact , he was . levi : surprise , surprise . maxie : but he did n't take it for himself . he gave it to robin 's daughter , emma . it 's because of that `` greedy capitalist 's `` unselfishness that that little girl 's alive today . levi : still , maxie , one good deed does not -- maxie : levi , he saved a child 's life , okay ? one that happens to be very important to me . what else do you want ? i 'm not saying that edward quartermaine was perfect , because he was n't , but he did n't try to hurt people who were less powerful than him . levi : okay , maybe he did n't , but can you say the same for the fat cat who 's running elq now ? here . look at this . [ knock on door ] kiki : michael ? hello ? morgan : kiki ? kiki : hey . i thought michael was gon na be here . morgan : oh , yeah . he -- he just left . you can catch him at the office , if you -- if you want to go there . kiki : um , no . actually , i just wanted to check out the brownstone . heard about your sweet deal -- free housing [ chuckles ] if you fix up the place . [ scraper scratching ] morgan : yeah . you jealous ? kiki : uh , yeah , actually . morgan : yeah , i 'm sure you 're all about bunking down with the spiders and centipedes after scraping paint all day . [ scratching stops ] morgan : are you serious ? kiki : i was serious enough to ask if i could get in on it . yeah , i 'm kind of home - challenged these days . morgan : but i thought -- i thought you were living with your dad . kiki : i was , but now my dad has his not - so - dead wife living there with him and rafe . it 's -- it 's a little crowded . morgan : right . why do n't you move in with mikey ? kiki : oh , we just do n't think that 's the best idea for our relationship right now . morgan : and living with your ex - husband is ? rafe : why would you think i know anything about dr. drake 's case ? molly : i do n't know . just a guess . you said you had something important to talk to sam about . rafe : no , i - it 's about something else , not that . molly : oh . okay . well , uh , i 'm not sure when sam will be back , so ... rafe : i guess i 'll just talk to her later , then . molly : do you want to wait for her ? rafe : uh , no , that -- that 's okay . i should probably get going . molly : okay . i 'll tell sam you stopped by . rafe : thanks . actually , molly , i have something to say to you . sam : hey . bill : hey . what can i do for you folks ? this week , we got a special on lube / oil filters -- only $ 24.95 . sam : thank you so much , uh -- uh , bill . that 's a -- that 's a - a very nice offer , but my friend and i were hoping you could help us out with something else . we 're looking for a car that was brought in here for a paint job , maybe some retouching . bill : well , we get a lot of those , ma'am . sam : okay . uh , this would have happened somewhere around april 24th . bill : do you have a make and model ? sam : i 'm not sure exactly , but , based on the size of the tires , which you can see right here , i would say that it 's probably a sports car , and all the damage was done on the passenger side . uh , it was probably either a scrape or -- patrick : probably a black car -- black exterior . bill : actually , i do remember something like that . tracy : luke , you have to stop calling me . which part of `` i want nothing to do with you `` do you not get ? it is over , done , finito . go and womanize and -- and leave me alone . do n't want to hear it . michael and kiki were right about you all along . i 'm so glad i finally wised up . i am finally back in the bosom of my family where i belong , and i will never let you get in the way of me and the people i love . [ sighs ] michael : that was luke ? tracy : [ sighs ] you mean the man who will not take no for an answer ? yes . i do n't know what 's wrong with him . he ca n't stop hurting me . but i kicked him to the curb ... again . michael : well , that 's -- that 's great , tracy . i 'm proud of you . now , that 's out of the way . what are you doing behind my desk ? kiki : living with my ex ... uh , husband , yeah . michael mentioned that . morgan : what 'd he say ? kiki : that the arrangement might be a bit awkward . morgan : what 'd you say ? kiki : i said that he 's the only corinthos brother for me . no offense . morgan : oh , come on . please . it 's not like i would ever try to get between you ...

morgan : seriously . seriously , if there was one good thing that came out of all this craziness with our families and stuff , it 's that , you know , you and i are friends again , which , actually , i - i kind of missed . kiki : i know . me , too . morgan : yeah , we have a - a real friendship . we can confide in each other about our problems . kiki : right ? i 'm so grateful that you helped me with luke the perv , and it was really nice to be able to turn to you for that . morgan : well , i 'm glad to be of assistance -- unless i was n't . kiki : no . i 'm sorry . you were . it 's just unfortunate because now that i do n't have to worry about luke , i 'm worrying about something else . my cousin rafe . rafe : i just want to say i 'm sorry . molly : oh . uh , thank you , but you already said you were sorry about my father . rafe : no . well , i mean , i am sorry about your dad , but that 's not what i -- look , molly , i 'm -- i 'm sorry for the way i acted towards you . okay , and i 'm sorry i ratted you and tj out to your mom when i saw you at the metro court . molly : [ sighs ] okay . rafe : [ sighs ] look , it 's just when i saw you guys together , i - i got so jealous , and it hurt . and i know you did n't mean to , but -- i do n't know . i guess i just thought if i made you hurt , too , it would make me feel better . molly : and did it make you feel better ? rafe : not even close . no , i felt so much worse . i know everyone gets jealous , but not everyone does what i did . and i do n't know why -- i do n't know why i do a lot of the things i do . molly : thank you for saying that , rafe . that was really brave . rafe : [ sighs ] well , then it 's the first brave thing i 've done in awhile . molly : i doubt that . rafe : look , the thing is , i 'm not just sorry about ratting you out . i 'm sorry about all of it , molly -- all the jealous crap i 've pulled . you know , when you came into my life , it was just -- it was so screwed up . i mean , i watched my mom die in front of me . i had no one . i mean , you -- you made it so much better . and i loved you for that . at least , i thought i did . and i guess just seeing you do all the stuff with tj , i kept wishing you were doing it with me . molly : i remember . rafe : and instead of letting you go , i acted stupid and messed things up for you two , which was completely wrong . i know i do n't deserve it , molly , but ... can you ever forgive me ? sam : really ? you remember someone bringing in a car that meets that description ? bill : yeah , some -- there was -- somebody brought it in right at the end of april . uh , it was a black sports coupe , and it was scraped all along the passenger side . sam : great , that 's probably the car we 're looking for . do you remember who brought it in , what he or she looked like ? bill : you know , somebody else did the intake and the hand - off . i just remember seeing the car around the shop , so ... sam : well , the employee that did the intake , the hand - off -- are they here ? bill : he 's not here . uh , i 'm the only one here right now , so if you want the customer name , i 'll have to look it up on the computer . sam : yes . yes , please . by all means , look it up on the computer . thank you . thank you . bill : no . sonny : you got a smart mouth , franco . franco : yeah , let me guess . you gon na shut it for me ? sonny : eventually , i probably will , but that 's not the problem i have with you . the problem i have with you is you 've tortured the people that i care about . franco : i had a brain tumor . sonny : oh , i know that -- the medical excuse for saving your ass in court , but you know what ? it still does n't excuse that you made the people that i care about suffer . carly : can we not get into this ? sonny : get him out of my face ! i know you think he 's a saint . but you know what ? he 's the same freak ... that he 's always been . franco : maybe you should watch the way you talk to me . sonny : the only reason you 're still walking around is because she cares about you , and i care about her . franco : oh , everyone knows how much you care about carly , the mother of your children , the woman who 's keeping the secret for you , the woman that knows that you killed aj . we not talking about that ? carly : no . franco : maybe you should stop and think for a second , sonny , because i know your secret , too , so maybe i 'm someone that you should n't mess with . sam : but , bill , come on . you -- you 've helped us out this far . bill : i should n't have done that much . sam : please , just go into the computer and find the person responsible for the damaged car . please ? bill : [ sighs ] patrick : okay , i know how this works . hmm ? what do you want , billy ? you want $ 100 ? bill : put your wallet away , sir . patrick : you want me to write you a check ? bill : you know what ? i do n't know who you 're used to dealing with , but now you 're insulting me . sam : oh , no , we do n't mean to insult you -- we do n't . we 're just a little bit confused ... patrick : pissed off is what we are . sam : ... and frustrated . please , help us out . please ? bill : i 'm sure you understand the value of privacy in business . if i start giving out personal information on my customers , pretty soon , i do n't have a business . sam : no , of course we understand . maybe you would change your mind if you knew that this was a special case . bill : oh , yeah . you know , everybody thinks their case is special . sam : okay , why do n't you hear me out , and then you decide ? the car that we are talking about was involved in an accident , and it ran another car off the road and fled the scene , and we 're hoping that if we find the car , we 'll find the person that was responsible for the accident . bill : this sounds like a matter for the police . are you a cop ? carly : franco , we need to go now . franco : not until i hear from sonny how much he appreciates what i 've done for him -- what i 'm still doing for him . carly : he knows , okay ? sonny : let me -- hey . let me hear it . i want to hear what he 's got to say about this -- franco : i heard a recording of you killing a man , and i have kept my mouth shut about it . in exchange for my discretion , i would appreciate it if you would keep your hands off of my girlfriend . sonny : [ chuckles ] how am i supposed to answer that ? how -- how long do i have to keep putting up with this ? carly : you know , i do n't want to get into a big fight about this . it 's not good for us . sonny : how long are you gon na keep protecting him ? honestly ? franco : is this a private conversation , or do ... carly : you know what ? franco : ... you think i can join in ? carly : you are completely overreacting . franco : i 'm not talking to you . i want to hear it from sonny . michael : please do n't tell me you 're looking for a , uh , pen . tracy : a pen . michael : right , 'cause that 's what everybody says when they get caught snooping . tracy : oh , no , i was n't snooping . michael : they also say that . tracy : no , i , uh , needed a pen to sign these . michael : pen ? tracy : thank you . michael : which are ... ? tracy : my annulment papers from luke spencer . michael : right , and you could n't sign them anywhere else but here on my desk in my office with my pen ? tracy : well , yes , of course , i could , but you wanted proof that i was ... through with luke , and here it is , fresh from my lawyers . michael : you got an annulment that quickly ? tracy : i did because luke married me , uh , under false pretenses , and i 'm a quartermaine . michael : fair enough . tracy : i got an annulment based on fraud ... and all i have to do is sign on the dotted line ... and this hideous mistake of a marriage will be as if it never happened . so , i want you to watch me do this . voilà . done . goodbye , luke spencer , and hello , elq , if you 'll have me . levi : so , what do you think of that ? maxie : well , it looks like elq 's turning all those old , run - down waterfront buildings into high - end apartments , boutiques , and sidewalk cafés . levi : exactly . so , what do you think of elq now ? maxie : well , i think that that 's great . i mean , i love shopping and food . [ chuckles ] ooh , maybe when my lease is up , we could rent one of these apartments . levi : you do n't see what 's wrong with this picture ? maxie : oh , after hanging that poster , i might not get my security deposit back ? i bet mac will help you cover all the nail holes . levi : maxie , this is n't about you getting an apartment in the new waterfront district . maxie : then what is this about ? levi : the waterfront district . maxie : what 's wrong with a brand - new waterfront ? levi : what 's wrong is that when people are paying $ 500 for pairs of shoes and $ 10 for a cappuccino and paying these exorbitant amounts of money in rent , what happens to the little guy ? maxie : what little guy ? levi : the little guy who ca n't afford to live in the neighborhood anymore . maxie : oh . i did n't really think about it like that . levi : maxie , this is what we need to focus on . we need to fight for the little guy who ca n't fight for himself . we need to put a stop to this project . morgan : um , what 's wrong with rafe ? kiki : [ sighs ] he 's in trouble . morgan : what kind of trouble ? kiki : when i saw him at my dad 's , he seemed to be in a bad way . morgan : well , can you be more specific ? like , is he upset about a girl or going on a crime spree ? kiki : uh , a little bit of both . i - i think he -- i mean , he 's not over molly , but it 's -- it 's worse than that . he stole money from sam , and i told him that he should just admit it to her , but ... morgan : well , i - i mean , i hope he listens , 'cause sam 's not gon na judge . i mean , she 's been through some shady moments in her past . she 's not one to , you know , judge anyone 's screw - ups . kiki : i - i know . i - i do n't -- i do n't think he 's afraid to tell her that he stole the money . i think he 's afraid to tell her why . morgan : why ? why did he do it ? kiki : i do n't know . he would n't tell me . but i -- what can be so bad that he would n't be able to tell sam ? sam loves him . she would n't -- she would n't just cut him off because of some stupid mistake . whatever it is , it ca n't be as bad as it seems . molly : yes . i forgive you . rafe : really ? molly : as long as you finally , finally understand and accept that i am with tj , and that 's not gon na change . rafe : yes , yes , i absolutely understand and accept that . okay , and i know i 've said that before , but this time it 's different , molly . you know , the only thing worse than not being able to be your boyfriend has been not having you as a friend . molly : yeah , i miss that , too . rafe : then do you think -- i do n't know -- i 'd -- i 'd really love it if we could go back to that . you know , when we first met , bonding over `` a streetcar named desire . `` molly : when you gave me the flower from the table at kelly 's and called it `` flores para los muertos . `` rafe : `` flowers for the dead . `` sam : no , i 'm -- i 'm not a cop . i 'm a p.i . , and i have been hired to work this case , so any information that you could give me would be a great help . bill : well , you know , i 'd like to help you . i mean that . but i ca n't compromise my customer base , okay ? patrick : [ scoffs ] bill : [ sighs ] look , why do n't you go to the police , get a warrant , and come back ? i 'll give you all the information you need , ready and waiting here for you , once i know everything is on the up - and - up . sam : okay . okay . fair enough . patrick : fair enough , sam ? sam : let 's just go outside , breathe , give nathan a call . see if he can help us . patrick : how long is that gon na take ? sam : i do n't know . it 's his case . he 's gon na want to close this fast . trust me . thank you for your time , bill . patrick : i 'm sorry , sir . i got to talk to you for a second . bill : you know , if you 're gon na offer me money for information again -- patrick : i am sorry that i insulted you . i - i admire your ethics . bill : oh , yeah . do you , now ? patrick : i do , and if you just understood the circumstance , i think you would make a different decision . please , it 's a matter of life and death . bill : a matter of life and death ? patrick : yes . bill : yeah , the accident was in april . it 's almost fourth of july . patrick : i understand that . bill : yeah , well , why is it suddenly a matter of life and death ? sam : hey , patrick , we do n't need to do this right now . we can call nathan . patrick : sam , that 's gon na take too long . sam : maybe an hour . that 's it . patrick : or maybe a day or a week , or maybe it 's not gon na happen . listen , i know that you 're reluctant to give your customers ' private information away -- i do . bill : okay , well , then why do n't you stop asking and listen to the lady ? patrick : because the person that was driving this car -- the car that we 're looking for -- they ran my family off the road . my 8-year - old daughter was in the car . a woman that i care very much for was in the car , also , and she was pregnant with my baby , okay ? because of the accident , she had the baby premature -- four months -- on the side of the road , and the baby died . bill : well , i 'm very sorry for your loss . patrick : the car did n't stop . they did n't call for help . they hit the guardrail , and they kept going , so i think you can understand that i need to find the person who was driving this car . rafe : i 'm really sorry about your dad again . he seemed like a cool guy ... in a terrifying kind of way , though . what made him seem so cool was i could tell he really loved you . molly : thank you . i just -- i ca n't get used to the idea that he 's never coming back . you know , when someone 's gone , they 're gone forever . there 's no way to bring them back . rafe : i 'm gon na go . molly : well , are you sure you do n't want to wait ? rafe : yeah , i 'll -- i 'll talk to sam later . see you later . kiki : i just wish rafe had confided in me . i know we have n't known each other long , but we 're still family . that 's what i 'm here for . morgan : [ chuckles ] kiki : what ? morgan : no , i just -- i think it 's nice that you 're so concerned . kiki : well , it 's nice for me , too . i 'm an only child . morgan : that you know of . kiki : [ chuckles ] really , though , i only grew up with my mom . i did n't have any cousins . i did n't have an uncle or known mob connections . morgan : well , and now your life is an embarrassment of riches . kiki : [ sighs ] my whole life , i just grew up wanting a brother or a sister that i could talk to and confide in . morgan : yeah . it was , you know -- it was great having mikey when i was growing up . even , you know , when we were little , he took care of -- of molly and kristina and me and now joss . go figure why he 's so serious . kiki : [ chuckles ] yeah . he 's pretty serious . morgan : yeah . i - i could talk to him about anything , though . he -- he always had my back . he was the one person that understood all the craziness that came with having sonny and carly corinthos as parents and what it was like to be part of that family , which , weirdly enough , now you and i are sort of family . kiki : um , yeah . i guess . the way we got there was n't exactly conventional , but ... morgan : no . kiki : i am really glad to have you back in my life . morgan : well , never really left it . kiki : [ chuckles ] it 's nice to be a part of your family , too . morgan : [ chuckles ] well , since you are a part of my family , then you wo n't mind helping me with this . michael : well , i 'm no lawyer , but everything seems to be in order . tracy : michael , by all means , have your lawyers review them . uh , i 'm sure they 'll find it 's completely aboveboard . michael : i - i do n't have any doubts .

i apologize . but you 're lecturing me about -- about life and love like i 'm a naive fool ! i know damn well that a good relationship is not the only thing that can make a person happy , but when two people make each other miserable ... victor : nicole and i are not miserable ! brady : well , you just snipe at each other and argue all the time . victor : we have our arguments , yes -- like any other couple . we disagree on a lot of things and we argue , but we always make up . brady : i 've never seen that . victor : has it ever occurred to you that we may do it in private ? brady : you 're right . you 're right . okay , fine . how lame of me not to think of that . victor : excuse me . brady : granddad , listen to me . i know this conversation is making you uncomfortable , but i keep wondering -- how did it all go downhill so fast ? you told me you were getting married , and you were so in love . victor : things change . brady : that fast ? if i did n't know you better , i 'd say you hated nicole . you treat your own wife like she 's less important than henderson . victor : i can count on henderson . brady : all right , bear with me . let me go out on a limb here . is it the age thing ? is that where the problem is ? i mean , hey , maybe you could get into a younger groove , maybe do some of the things that nicole likes to -- victor : you do n't know what the hell you 're talking about . brady : you 're right . i 've never been married . i do n't know what i 'm talking about , but maybe you could just cut her some slack . victor : i 'm letting her manage the blue note with you , are n't i ? brady : yes , and that 's going to get her out of the house , and it 's going to give you a chance to miss her , and it may be just the thing you need to get your relationship back on track . victor : i 'm not going to hold my breath . nicole : hi . victor : where have you been ?

i 've had a hard life , but i only have one regret in my life , and that is of all the women in the world that could have been my son 's mother , i get stuck with you . i need a genie or something . i need a genie to just give me one wish . if i had one wish , sami , i 'd wish you were never will 's mother . cassie : i 've been told that i make guys really happy . man : you sust hold on to that thought , gorgeous . i 'll be right back . man : ahem . hello ! who the hell are you ?

i 've had a hard life , but i only have one regret in my life , and that is of all the women in the world that could have been my son 's mother , i get stuck with you . i need a genie or something . i need a genie to just give me one wish . if i had one wish , sami , i 'd wish you were never will 's mother . cassie : i 've been told that i make guys really happy . man : you sust hold on to that thought , gorgeous . i 'll be right back . man : ahem . hello ! who the hell are you ?

mariah : i ca n't . it 's like a train wreck . i ca n't look away . sharon : you 're overreacting . you know , it was n't that big of a deal . mariah : i faceplanted on national television , sharon . sharon : so ? it 's like chloe said . you know , if that 's your worst crime , i think you 're doing pretty good . mariah : my god . this is just out there for eternity , for the whole world to see . talk about karmic payback . sharon : if you 're suggesting that you deserved this -- mariah : did n't i ?

[ sighs ] chelsea : it was very sweet of you to come . i appreciate it , nick , but the damage is done . you should take your sweet , sleeping , little angel and head home . nick : nope . no way . chelsea : [ sighs ] nick : who are you ? the chelsea newman i know is not a quitter . chelsea : [ scoffs ] you did not just go there . nick : pretty sure i just did . chelsea : i worked my butt off on this line . i worked late nights , i worked early mornings , i - i spent time that i want to spend with my son on the line . i needed today to be perfect . and you know what ? i 'm gon na tell you something . i could have accepted it if -- if , you know , the critics did n't like it or if people did n't buy it . i have to accept that , because that 's real life . but this ? i mean , this is how it ends ? i 'm like a joke ! i 'm a joke on the internet ! i 'm like -- i 'm like a cat on a bike or a -- or a dog singing the macarena ! nick : okay , hold up . i think cats on bikes are cool . chelsea : [ chuckles ] nick : if a dog was singing the macarena , that 'd be pretty cool , too . see that ? see what happened to your face ? your lips , they kind of did one of these , and when -- you 're also forgetting the golden rule of the universe . there 's no such thing as bad publicity . chelsea : if that is the golden rule , then we 're in serious trouble . nick : look , okay , people are laughing right now . but they 're gon na remember your name . chelsea 2.0 . then they 're gon na go to your website , then they 're gon na see how amazingly talented you are . heck , when it 's all said and done , you might end up thanking mariah for falling on her face . chelsea : really ? and i should pay her a commission or something ? nick : now you 're talking . chelsea : thank you . nick : i did n't do anything . chelsea : yeah . you did . faith : daddy and i made them . mariah : oh , well , i 'm guessing this one is yours . faith : how do you know ? mariah : because it is adorable and , no offense , but your dad 's decorating skills needs some work . sharon : i 've been telling him that for years . mariah : [ laughs ] faith : have it . it 'll make you feel better . mariah : oh , no , no , no . i 'm -- i 'm not hungry right now . i 'm gon na save it for later . faith : you know it 's bad when she does n't want a cookie . sharon : mm - hmm . mariah : okay , guys , i 'm right here . thank you . sharon : i hope you brought your homework along with those cookies , because you have a book report that you need to work on and finish before you go back to your dad 's tonight . faith : actually , i was thinking maybe i 'd stay here tonight . sharon : oh , we would love that . okay , well , i 'll just call your dad and clear it . and in the meantime , why do n't you get started on the homework ? faith : okay . [ both laugh ] faith : i love you , mariah . i 'm sorry you fell over and embarrassed yourself on tv . mariah : i love you , too , kid . oh , my god . she kills me . sharon : she 's so sweet . mariah : i wish i could be more like faith . she 's always so happy . sharon : she 's a child . mariah : eh , i was never that cheerful . shocking , i know . but it must be nice to be able to look on the bright side . sharon : you know , you 've got to stop beating yourself up . accidents happen . mariah : but i wish they would stop happening to me . but i got to say i 'm not totally blameless . sharon : of course , you are . mariah : no . [ scoffs ] if i had n't tried so hard to stick it to hilary , to prove that i could fill her shoes ... maybe i should have learned to walk in them first . sharon : i think you 're overreacting . everyone 's gon na forget all about this . they probably already have . mariah : wrong . face it . your daughter is a meme . kevin : hey . how 's mariah ? is she hurt ? she 's not answering my calls . chloe : oh , i 'm fine . thanks for asking . kevin : sorry . hi . chloe : hi . kevin : but we watched the show . we saw that fall . it was horrible . summer : yeah , but she really stuck the landing . kevin : summer , it 's not funny ! chloe : well , it 's a little funny . you got to admit . abby : do you want to grab another coffee ? summer : yes . you read my mind . kevin : why am i the only one who cares about what happened ? chloe : we care , kevin . you 're just borderline obsessed . kevin : i 'm not ! she 's my friend ! i 'm concerned ! chloe : she 's fine , i think . look , she did n't break anything . she did n't bust a tooth . we did n't have to call the ambulance , so just take it down a few notches . kevin : how is she ? chloe : she 's mariah . she handled it with as much dignity and sarcasm as she can muster . she 's fine . [ sighs ] wish i could say the same for myself . hilary : do n't worry , devon . i forgive you . devon : for what ? hilary : for trying to replace me with mariah . as misguided as it was , you did teach me a lesson . you are the money . i am the talent . devon : is that what you think ? hilary : you know , that 's just it . see , i am the talent . [ scoffs ] mariah is not . i 'm sorry . i just -- i keep thinking about tonight 's show . it was cringeworthy , for her and for gc buzz . but at least now we 're on the same page . devon : are we on the same page , hon ? hilary : yeah . we want everything to get back to normal . devon : no . hilary : what do you mean , no ? devon : i mean no to everything that you 're saying . normal is never gon na be you twisting interviews around like you did with dylan mcavoy and turning his words into something completely opposite of what he wanted to say . we ca n't have that . hilary : i understand , okay ? everything by the book this time . devon : no , you wo n't . hilary : devon , take a breath , all right ? everybody saw the slap on my wrist . you made your point . so , if you admit that you were wrong , maybe -- just maybe -- i 'll come back . devon : [ chuckles ] lily : unh , unh , unh . no more work . it 's time for your treatment . cane : i 've already had my treatments . plus i have to get these reports done now . lily : well , that was not a request . it was doctor 's orders . cane : well . hello , dr. ashby . lily : oh , yeah . cane : yeah ? lily : that 's me . cane : see , i did n't know that you made house calls . lily : well , only for my most special patients . now , i may need you to open wide , 'cause i have to take your temperature . cane : [ muffled ] you know what ? i was feeling a little feverish . lily : shh ! be a good boy or you 're not gon na get your lollipop . [ both laugh ] lily : so , are you enjoying your therapy sessions with whatever her name is ? cane : you know , actually , right now i have absolutely no idea who you 're talking about . lily : mm - hmm . just remember who really takes care of you . cane : i wo n't forget it . trust me . lily : oh , just as i thought . you 're running a fever . cane : and what do you think we should do about this fever , dr. ashby ? lily : well , did n't you say something about muscle stimulation ? cane : yeah , i did . abby : [ laughs ] summer : i ca n't stop watching this ! abby : it 's so brutal and so painful and so hilarious . summer : exactly . does that make us bad people for laughing at mariah ? abby : you 're right . summer : and hey , okay , she did n't get hurt . there was no damage . she did n't hurt other people . and , you know , she kind of looked amazing doing it . abby : hey , yeah . if you 're gon na bite it , you might as well look good doing it . summer : exactly . so maybe we should n't feel so terrible when we 're watching it and laughing at mariah . abby : yeah , it 's definitely not the meanest thing i 've done . summer : no , it 's not . i am the well aware of the meanest thing that you 've ever done . abby : yeah . okay , but still , we should n't be using someone else 's misfortune as our amusement , okay ? we 're above that . summer : okay , okay , just hear me out . if it was you or me trying to walk down the runway and we fell so hard that we cracked the floor , how many times do you think mariah would be watching that ? exactly . okay ? so just one more time . abby : just once . summer : okay . oh ! abby : [ laughs ] summer : she falls hard , man ! kevin : thanks . hey , i 'm sorry . i guess i was a little bit focused on mariah before . chloe : it 's fine . kevin : no , it 's not . i did n't stop to think about what this could mean for you . chloe : hint -- nothing good . kevin : so talk to me . chloe : [ sighs ] today was a really big day for us . finally a chance to position the brand , to go big . kevin : one little tumble on tv is n't gon na change all that . chloe : well , maybe not for chelsea because she has friends and resources up to here , but not me . people are finally starting to look at me like a normal person , a businesswoman , even , not just `` that crazy chick who ran that dude down . `` kevin : people do n't say that about you . chloe : well , they might not be saying it , but they 're thinking it . kevin : i do n't . chloe : maybe you 're a touch crazy yourself . kevin : you have no idea how special you are , do you ? you are so funny , smart , interesting , and you are so sexy . chloe : i really like where you 're going with this . kevin : i really am sorry i was so focused on mariah before . chloe : it 's traumatizing for her . kevin : still , it 's not an excuse . you know , you may not have friends up to here , but you got me , and i 'm not going anywhere . chelsea : still sleeping ? nick : man , i wish i could sleep that hard . chelsea : thanks for the pep talk . nick : anytime . chelsea : [ sighs ] i never realized . were you always this much of a `` glass half full `` type of guy ? nick : you know , lately i 've just been realizing how incredibly blessed i am . you know , i know it 's easier to remain optimistic if things keep working out for you . chelsea : so even with all of the trials and all of the tribulations you 've experienced over the past year , you 're still an optimist ? nick : and my glass just keeps getting fuller .

you wanted this so badly . it 's yours . summer : okay , well , she got back up and she spoke . coherently , even . so that must mean that she is n't hurt . kevin : maybe . or maybe she 's in shock . abby : okay , back up . mariah was hosting `` gc buzz . `` like ... mariah , mariah ?

mariah was really working hard to make something of herself . summer : yeah , well , she , uh , she did that kind of . kevin : what does that mean ? abby : well , she 's become an instant internet sensation . i mean , she definitely made something of herself . kevin : no . summer : yeah . oh , yeah . kevin : [ sighs ] sharon : would you stop looking at that thing ? mariah : i ca n't . it 's like a train wreck . i ca n't look away . sharon : you 're overreacting . you know , it was n't that big of a deal . mariah : i faceplanted on national television , sharon . sharon : so ? it 's like chloe said . you know , if that 's your worst crime , i think you 're doing pretty good . mariah : my god . this is just out there for eternity , for the whole world to see . talk about karmic payback . sharon : if you 're suggesting that you deserved this -- mariah : did n't i ? i went from glorified gofer to tv host just like that . i had no experience , no training . sharon : neither did hilary ! mariah : yeah . and look where that got her -- her own husband fired her . the job is jinxed . sharon : are you actually gon na sit here and give hilary the satisfaction of being right ?

[ sighs ] chelsea : it was very sweet of you to come . i appreciate it , nick , but the damage is done . you should take your sweet , sleeping , little angel and head home . nick : nope . no way . chelsea : [ sighs ] nick : who are you ? the chelsea newman i know is not a quitter . chelsea : [ scoffs ] you did not just go there . nick : pretty sure i just did . chelsea : i worked my butt off on this line . i worked late nights , i worked early mornings , i - i spent time that i want to spend with my son on the line . i needed today to be perfect . and you know what ? i 'm gon na tell you something . i could have accepted it if -- if , you know , the critics did n't like it or if people did n't buy it . i have to accept that , because that 's real life . but this ? i mean , this is how it ends ? i 'm like a joke ! i 'm a joke on the internet ! i 'm like -- i 'm like a cat on a bike or a -- or a dog singing the macarena ! nick : okay , hold up . i think cats on bikes are cool . chelsea : [ chuckles ] nick : if a dog was singing the macarena , that 'd be pretty cool , too . see that ? see what happened to your face ? your lips , they kind of did one of these , and when -- you 're also forgetting the golden rule of the universe . there 's no such thing as bad publicity . chelsea : if that is the golden rule , then we 're in serious trouble . nick : look , okay , people are laughing right now . but they 're gon na remember your name . chelsea 2.0 . then they 're gon na go to your website , then they 're gon na see how amazingly talented you are . heck , when it 's all said and done , you might end up thanking mariah for falling on her face . chelsea : really ? and i should pay her a commission or something ? nick : now you 're talking . chelsea : thank you . nick : i did n't do anything . chelsea : yeah . you did . faith : daddy and i made them . mariah : oh , well , i 'm guessing this one is yours . faith : how do you know ? mariah : because it is adorable and , no offense , but your dad 's decorating skills needs some work . sharon : i 've been telling him that for years . mariah : [ laughs ] faith : have it . it 'll make you feel better . mariah : oh , no , no , no . i 'm -- i 'm not hungry right now . i 'm gon na save it for later . faith : you know it 's bad when she does n't want a cookie . sharon : mm - hmm . mariah : okay , guys , i 'm right here . thank you . sharon : i hope you brought your homework along with those cookies , because you have a book report that you need to work on and finish before you go back to your dad 's tonight . faith : actually , i was thinking maybe i 'd stay here tonight . sharon : oh , we would love that . okay , well , i 'll just call your dad and clear it . and in the meantime , why do n't you get started on the homework ? faith : okay . [ both laugh ] faith : i love you , mariah . i 'm sorry you fell over and embarrassed yourself on tv . mariah : i love you , too , kid . oh , my god . she kills me . sharon : she 's so sweet . mariah : i wish i could be more like faith . she 's always so happy . sharon : she 's a child . mariah : eh , i was never that cheerful . shocking , i know . but it must be nice to be able to look on the bright side . sharon : you know , you 've got to stop beating yourself up . accidents happen . mariah : but i wish they would stop happening to me . but i got to say i 'm not totally blameless . sharon : of course , you are . mariah : no . [ scoffs ] if i had n't tried so hard to stick it to hilary , to prove that i could fill her shoes ... maybe i should have learned to walk in them first . sharon : i think you 're overreacting . everyone 's gon na forget all about this . they probably already have . mariah : wrong . face it . your daughter is a meme . kevin : hey . how 's mariah ? is she hurt ? she 's not answering my calls . chloe : oh , i 'm fine . thanks for asking . kevin : sorry . hi . chloe : hi . kevin : but we watched the show . we saw that fall . it was horrible . summer : yeah , but she really stuck the landing . kevin : summer , it 's not funny ! chloe : well , it 's a little funny . you got to admit . abby : do you want to grab another coffee ? summer : yes . you read my mind . kevin : why am i the only one who cares about what happened ? chloe : we care , kevin . you 're just borderline obsessed . kevin : i 'm not ! she 's my friend ! i 'm concerned ! chloe : she 's fine , i think . look , she did n't break anything . she did n't bust a tooth . we did n't have to call the ambulance , so just take it down a few notches . kevin : how is she ? chloe : she 's mariah . she handled it with as much dignity and sarcasm as she can muster . she 's fine .

[ scene_break ] lulu : spinelli is my best friend , and i would never want to do anything to hurt him , but that 's exactly what i would be doing if i decide to date logan . carly : spinelli 's going to be hurt no matter who you date . he wants to be me than just friends with you . lulu : he -- yeah , he 's kind , he 's nice , and he would lay down in front of a bus for me . carly : no chemistry ? lulu : none at all . carly : well , you kind of have to be attracted to the guy you 're dating . lulu : and i am attracted to logan , even though everyone is telling me to stay away from him . carly : and that 's part of the appeal . lulu : no , no , no , no , it 's more than that . carly : you told me he was a jerk . lulu : yes , he can be -- at least , to most people . but logan has n't had the best life , for a lot of reasons , mainly because his dad bailed on him before he was born . so he has a serious problem trusting people , and he shuts himself off and builds up these walls to protect himself from getting hurt again . and -- i do n't know -- every now and then , i get a glimpse of who logan really is , and there is something about that person that i just ca n't seem to stay away from . and that 's the problem , that spinelli has not seen that side of logan , so he thinks that i 'm just going to get hurt . carly : do you consider spinelli a good judge of character ? lulu : well , he worships jason . he pretty much thinks that ric is corrupt scum . he has a lot of respect for sonny -- even though he 's scared to death of him -- and he worships you . carly : the kid 's got great instincts . lulu : hmm . yeah . carly : it does n't mean you have to follow them . lulu : so , what , you think that i should date logan ? carly : i think you should do whatever you want to do . but if you 're wrong about logan , i hope spinelli will come through for you regardless . that 's what a true friend does . [ scene_break ] jason : if you want to be lulu 's friend , you need to stick by her no matter what . spinelli : right . she 's -- she 's making a massively huge mistake giving herself to the unworthy one . jason : okay , how -- how do you know it 's a mistake ? spinelli : because i have proof that logan hayes is the reigning king of scum . he was caught -- he was caught putting the moves on the bad blond one just moments after leaving the fair one 's side . jason : this is what i 'm talking about here , okay ? part of being a friend is knowing when to give advice and when just to let it go . spinelli : oh -- jason : because there are people who you can tell over and over again and warn them , and they 're not going to listen to you . spinelli : you 're talking about the valkyrie -- carly ? jason : i am -- yeah , carly , for example , okay ? she 's done the craziest , most self - destructive things . i knew they were going to hurt her , but carly is the type of person who needs to figure it out for herself . and now -- you know , maybe lulu is the same way . all you can do is just be there to pick her up when she falls . spinelli : you know , i just wish there was a way that i could -- that i could spare her the inevitable pain of this negative situation . you know , some way that i could -- that i could show her that she deserves someone so much better than the simian one , you know , someone that 'll worship the ground that she walks on , you know , and hold her in the highest regard . jason : look , no matter what happens , lulu knows that she can trust you . spinelli : `` trust . `` great . that does n't make a heart beat faster , okay ? have you ever heard of a -- of a poet or a rock star writing an aria about trust ? i mean , come on , trust is the -- is the also - ran of interpersonal bond . jason : trust is essential . there 's no relationship that can survive without it .

[ scene_break ] epiphany : i think you should go and lay down , and wait for patrick to examine you . noah : see ? i think i 'm getting good at this -- that even people who know that i 'm impersonating eli love still ca n't tell the difference . you thought i was him , right ? epiphany : no . uh - uh . i think that you need to get your head examined before you actually start to believe that you are a rock star . noah : i 'm thinking of calling myself `` dr. love . `` what do you think ? epiphany : you know what i think ? i think that you need to be able to do more than talk when you get up on that stage . i think that you should be able to perform . noah : what , did you get up on the wrong side of the bed ? patrick : you have no idea . robin : the labs are back on eli . noah : i did n't order any labs , honey . patrick : i did . robin : okay , well , maybe if you would put `` junior `` after `` drake , `` the staff would know who to deliver them to . patrick : there 's only two drakes in the hospital . if it 's not my father , it 's me . it 's really not that hard to figure out . robin : well , why should i have to waste my time trying to figure it out ? it would just take you five seconds to put `` junior `` on there , and then there would n't be any confusion at all . noah : come on , this is so petty , even for you guys . what 's going on ? patrick : yeah , ask her -- she 's the one picking fights for no reason . robin : oh . you 're a jerk . is that a good enough reason ? [ scene_break ] kate : call annie and tell her the cover reshoot is on for thursday . yes , clarice , as in two days from now . and then call jacques and tell him he 'll have his revised mockups -- as soon as the local constable realizes i 'm no longer a menace to society . mac : i 'm impressed . i never thought you 'd make it through the night in lockup . kate : well , it 's not the five - star accommodations i 'm used to , but i found ways to make do . mac : so i see . kate : so , since you brought me out from that dreadful cell , may i assume that my attorney managed to straighten this whole mess out ? sonny : your lawyer could n't get anything done , so i had diane handle it , and she 's going to get you released -- kate : thank god . sonny : into my custody . mac : you 're free to go . kate : oh , under no circumstances am i going anywhere with that man .

[ lulu sighs ] carly : what you think you may want is the exact opposite of what you need , and you 're never going to know until you put yourself out there . lulu : even if it hurts the person that you care about the most ? carly : you ca n't help who you 're attracted to . okay , sometimes -- sometimes you want to be with the guy that drives you crazy . the guy who makes you blush without even trying . the man who is impossible to get close to , but when you do , it 's one of the best feelings in the whole world . and then there 's that time that you just want to be with the guy who is there for you no matter what . you call him at 3 : 00 a.m. , he 's there at 3 : 05 . and he 's not asking you what you did wrong , he just wants to make sure you 're okay . i do n't know which guy that you need to be with . but what i do know is you need both of them in your life . lulu : you just described sonny and jason , did n't you ? carly : yeah , i did . lulu : so where does that leave jax ? [ scene_break ] diane : ric is recalling sam to the stand . now , i 'm going to assume that her anger is even intensified because it has become public knowledge that you slept with elizabeth spencer , so my advice is to prepare yourself . sam could do some real damage today . [ scene_break ] spinelli : uh , fair samantha ? um , we 're too late . sam : for what ? spinelli : to offer stone cold some words of encouragement before the proceedings begin . see , the law - abiding ones have already closed the door -- sam : yeah , i 'm -- i 'm not here to give jason any words of encouragement -- ric has actually called me back to the stand . spinelli : look , i -- i know you 're still angry at stone cold for keeping baby jake 's true parentage a secret , but , honestly , he -- he never meant to hurt you . sam : yeah , well , i really do n't care what he meant to do . spinelli : look , he -- and he only went along with the lie to spare you further pain . look , i -- deep down , i know you understand that -- just like i know you would never take an opportunity like this to purposely hurt jason . sam : do n't be so sure . [ scene_break ] jax : no need to take this personally . irina : i will have you as many times as i want until your brother arrives . jax : what happened to fair play ? i thought i get to choose my punishment . irina : you thought wrong . jax : oh ! irina : i make the rules . wait outside . if mr. jacks tries to leave , see to it that he never walks again . jax : you 're not afraid to be left alone with me ? irina : if anyone should be afraid , it 's you . i do n't think you understand your position -- or carly 's . what do you suppose is worse -- two motherless children , or a childless mother ? morgan and michael -- what a pity it would be if one or both should meet with a terrible accident while crossing the street . jax : you would actually kill innocent children ? irina : i 'd do anything to get back at someone i hate . the question is , what will you do to save someone you love ? [ scene_break ] carly : jax is the kind of man every woman dreams of finding . he 's gorgeous , he 's rich , he 's confident , he 's independent , and he loves me for me , no matter how self - destructive i get -- which can be pretty bad . and to top it all off , he loves my kids , he adores my kids . i could n't ask for anything more -- except for him to be here right now . that would be great . lulu : oh , you have n't heard from jax ? carly : no , thanks to jerry . but i 'm not going to get angry , because that would be counterproductive . i 'm going to sit here and i 'm going to remind myself of how much i love him . you know how hard it is to find a man like jax ? women wait forever for a jax to come along . lulu : right , right . well , no , i -- i get why you love him now , but , you know , how was it in the beginning ? how did you know that he was the one ? carly : well , i think it took a while for me to figure that out . but what made the difference was the way jax looks at me -- like i 'm the only person in the room . lulu : i know that look . i 'm getting that right now . carly : okay . [ lulu sighs ] carly : everybody wants to find that person that makes them see rainbows and stars , okay ? but we need more . if spinelli is half the friend to you that jason is to me , you hold on to him for dear life .

[ kate sighs ] kate : see , i do n't -- i do n't think you understand . it is one thing to be arrested for reckless driving -- you can spin that , turn it into an amusing story at cocktail parties -- my brush with the law or some such -- but sonny is -- he 's unspinnable . leaving here with him will cause the wrong kind of scandal -- no offense . sonny : no , none taken . and just to prove to you that i 'm not offended , i 'm going to fix this for you . [ scene_break ] patrick : it 's not my fault that you were n't in the mood this morning . robin : it 's not my fault that sex is the only way you know how to communicate . patrick : okay , time - out , robin . where -- where is this coming from ? i mean , did i look too long at one of the scrub nurses in surgery yesterday ? or did i miss one of those crucial girlie days that are made up to make men look like insensitive pigs when we forget it ? robin : oh , that would make it so easy for you , right -- just wine and dine me , smooth everything over ? patrick : you know what ? right now i 'll take any excuse to explain your behavior . robin : i ca n't believe you 're blaming this on me right now . patrick : well , it 's not my fault . so if you 're looking for an excuse , it 's not going to happen . i do n't even know what you think i did . robin : of course you do n't -- men never do . patrick : wow , that 's a pretty sweeping generalization , do n't you think ? almost sexist , i would say . tell me again why i got into a committed relationship . noah : you 're asking the wrong guy . eli love is not qualified , and neither is his impersonator . i think you 're on your own . [ scene_break ] judge : may i remind you , ms. mccall , you 're still under oath . sam : i understand . diane : how much does sam know about your and sonny 's business ? jason : enough . ric : ms. mccall , would you refresh the jury 's memory as to how you know the defendant ? sam : jason and i were in a relationship for the past three years . ric : and in that time , you lived with jason morgan . is that correct ? sam : i did . ric : in your previous testimony , you told the court that the defendant , jason morgan , often kept guns in the house and used them to shoot people . diane : objection , your honor . the witness has already established that the defendant has a license for every weapon in question and has only used them in self - defense . judge : sustained . mr. lansing , if you have no new ground to cover , i 'll have to excuse the witness . ric : your honor , in my experience , many witnesses often remember vital information only after they have left the courtroom . diane : oh -- ric : now , it is impossible for ms. mccall to remember every single detail that she ever saw or every word that she ever heard in the course of a three - year relationship . but now that some time has passed , the witness may be better able to recall the events leading up to lorenzo alcazar 's murder . diane : objection -- prejudicial . judge : mr. lansing , we 've been over this before , several times . ric : yes -- yes , your honor , i 'm sorry . the events -- the events leading up to the disappearance of lorenzo alcazar . judge : i 'll allow it , but keep it brief . ric : we 've already established that the defendant owns guns and has shot people -- some even in your own presence . is that correct ? sam : yes . ric : have you ever heard or seen jason morgan actively plan to kill anyone ? ric : we 've become very desensitized to murder in our society . we read about it in the paper every day . it 's been glorified in the movies and in television -- diane : objection -- objection ! the prosecution is addressing the jury . judge : stop waxing eloquent and find a question , mr. lansing . ric : ms. mccall , have you ever heard the defendant , jason morgan , make arrangements to kill anyone at all ? sam : no , i have n't . ric : you can take your time , ms. mccall . we are after the truth here , no matter how long it takes . sam : no , i do n't need any more time . i have never heard jason morgan make arrangements to kill anyone . ric : really ? are you sure ? diane : objection . judge : sustained . move it along , mr. lansing . ric : so you never heard the defendant , jason morgan , make any arrangements to kill anybody , but you have , in fact , been in jason morgan 's presence when he 's taken a life . is that correct ? sam : yes , and i have even shot people myself in self - defense -- like jason did . and it 's terrible knowing that your actions destroyed another person 's life -- whether you did it to protect them or not . diane : your honor ? i -- i fail to see how ms. mccall 's testimony in this case is relevant . may we please move it along ? judge : mr. lansing , do you have any further questions for this witness that actually pertain to this case ? ric : no , your honor , i do not . judge : ms. miller ? diane : no questions , your honor . judge : you may step down . diane : you owe her for that .

[ scene_break ] diane : ric is recalling sam to the stand . now , i 'm going to assume that her anger is even intensified because it has become public knowledge that you slept with elizabeth spencer , so my advice is to prepare yourself . sam could do some real damage today .

[ scene_break ] jax : no need to take this personally . irina : i will have you as many times as i want until your brother arrives . jax : what happened to fair play ? i thought i get to choose my punishment . irina : you thought wrong . jax : oh ! irina : i make the rules . wait outside . if mr. jacks tries to leave , see to it that he never walks again . jax : you 're not afraid to be left alone with me ? irina : if anyone should be afraid , it 's you . i do n't think you understand your position -- or carly 's . what do you suppose is worse -- two motherless children , or a childless mother ? morgan and michael -- what a pity it would be if one or both should meet with a terrible accident while crossing the street . jax : you would actually kill innocent children ? irina : i 'd do anything to get back at someone i hate . the question is , what will you do to save someone you love ? [ scene_break ] carly : jax is the kind of man every woman dreams of finding . he 's gorgeous , he 's rich , he 's confident , he 's independent , and he loves me for me , no matter how self - destructive i get -- which can be pretty bad . and to top it all off , he loves my kids , he adores my kids . i could n't ask for anything more -- except for him to be here right now . that would be great . lulu : oh , you have n't heard from jax ? carly : no , thanks to jerry . but i 'm not going to get angry , because that would be counterproductive . i 'm going to sit here and i 'm going to remind myself of how much i love him . you know how hard it is to find a man like jax ? women wait forever for a jax to come along . lulu : right , right . well , no , i -- i get why you love him now , but , you know , how was it in the beginning ? how did you know that he was the one ? carly : well , i think it took a while for me to figure that out . but what made the difference was the way jax looks at me -- like i 'm the only person in the room . lulu : i know that look . i 'm getting that right now . carly : okay . [ lulu sighs ] carly : everybody wants to find that person that makes them see rainbows and stars , okay ? but we need more . if spinelli is half the friend to you that jason is to me , you hold on to him for dear life . [ scene_break ] mac : what 's the problem now ? kate : i have been told by one of your more genteel employees that there is a horde of reporters just waiting for my release outside . mac : and ? kate : and if i walk out that door next to a man with his reputation , what 's left of mine will be obliterated . mac : the judge released you into sonny 's custody , so the only way you get to leave here is with sonny . kate : okay . fine . then i 'll just wait here -- until my lawyer can come up with a more palatable solution . mac : you know , you have reduced three of my best female officers to tears , and my men have spent the better part of the morning ignoring their jobs to handle your personal errands . now , i ca n't have my entire force distracted while your lawyer petitions the judge for a more palatable solution . so you either leave with sonny , or you 're going to go back into solitary with no phone , no visitors , and absolutely no special treatment . kate : that 's a little extreme , do n't you think ? mac : well , it 's your choice . [ kate sighs ] kate : see , i do n't -- i do n't think you understand . it is one thing to be arrested for reckless driving -- you can spin that , turn it into an amusing story at cocktail parties -- my brush with the law or some such -- but sonny is -- he 's unspinnable . leaving here with him will cause the wrong kind of scandal -- no offense . sonny : no , none taken . and just to prove to you that i 'm not offended , i 'm going to fix this for you .

i can take care of myself . but kelly and phoebe are children , and they need their dad . so go . be the father that you and i never had . sally : what do i know about hope 's marriage ? um ... i mean , the same as you , i 'm guessing , assuming you 've been talking to steffy . thomas : i 've heard some from her , some from hope . sally : losing a child has to be extremely difficult on a relationship . thomas : no doubt . sally : so why are you asking about it ?

[ sighs ] i 've always loved hope . it does n't take away from what we had . but i 'm seeing them now , and how amazing they are together ... and it works . and i 'm realizing that , yeah , i 'm in love with her . and ... she 's the one woman i never truly got over . brooke : if not sally , then who ? do you know ? ridge : [ sighs ] you know what , my -- my sweet , lovely wife ? sometimes it 's better not to , um ... brooke : right . yes . the less we involve ourselves in our children 's love lives , the better . ridge : mm - hmm . i wish somebody told that to your mother once upon a time . ridge : wow . brooke : [ chuckles ] thomas will be okay . ridge : yeah . and so will hope . brooke : i know . hope : look , i realize you want to stay in l.a. because you 're worried about me . but everyone is worried about me , and i ca n't take it anymore . th - the looks of pity and concern . i realize they 're with good intent , but it is just a constant reminder of my failure . and -- and those worried looks , it just reinforces my doubts , you know ? that ... maybe if i had stayed awake that -- liam : okay . okay , okay . let -- all right . hope : [ sighs ] liam : let 's run this out . okay . let 's say you 're right . that you could have kept beth alive by not passing out . i do n't think that 's true . but i believe you that you do . [ inhales ] so now what ? how -- how do we move forward ? how do i help you recover ? how do i -- how do i help you forgive yourself ? hope : i do n't know . liam : i do n't know , either . i do n't know , either . but i 'm gon na guess that the right answer is not you pushing me away . i should be caring for you . i should be -- i should be holding you . i should be loving you . hope : and i want that , too . i want to move on and to live life and to be like the way we were , but i -- i do n't know . my body is still in mourning . i 'm not ready yet . and ... i 'm not sure i 'll ever be able to get over what happened . liam : you 're not supposed to get over it . our daughter died . that 's not something you get over . that 's not how this works . hope : [ sobs , sighs ] liam : but you should be able to let me in . you should let me be the husband that you need me to be , the husband that i -- that i promised you i would be when we said our vows . hope , y - you -- you 've ...

sally : mission accomplished , mr . forrester . thomas : what 's that ? sally : major employee morale boost right there . you saw their smiles when they walked out of here , bursting with pride to work on this line . thomas : i 'm bursting a bit myself . getting back into hope for the future will be therapeutic to say the least . sally : you 're thinking it will be for hope , too ? thomas : yeah , should be . getting back to work more . sally : well , you 're a good friend . she 's lucky to have you in her life . thomas : well , it goes both ways . i 've been leaning on her a lot lately . can i talk to you about something ? sally : yeah . anything . thomas : you sure ? it 's just that , uh , well , we have history , and i , uh ... sally : did me wrong ? thomas : yeah . sally : yeah . well ... lucky for you , i got over that . what 's going on ? thomas : well , i tried talking to my dad about this and , uh , heh , that did n't go well . um ... there 's a lot going on inside of me . sally : well , yeah . i mean , i can only imagine all the feelings that you 're processing . thomas : yeah . sally : look , this stays between us , okay ?

like , sharing a meal . hope : followed by ... ? liam : [ snorts ] yeah . well , yeah , it 's been a while . and it 's possible that would help us reconnect , but that 's not -- that 's not the point of this . hope : just ... not yet . i -- i want -- i want to reconnect with you in that way , to be with you and to feel you , i just -- i ca n't risk it . okay , and it 's not just not wanting to get pregnant again or losing beth . it 's -- it 's also because i feel guilty about keeping you away -- liam : okay . okay , okay , okay . that -- see , that , you got to stop . you got to stop acting like -- like you 're the one keeping me from my daughters . that 's not -- that 's not what 's happening . hope : hey , steffy and the girls are your family . and now they are thousands of miles away from you . liam : because of a business trip . it 's a business trip steffy 's on . hope : [ scoffs ] steffy took that trip to create distance between me and the girls , and you know that 's true , liam . especially with phoebe . and i do n't blame her . she wanted to do what she thought was best for me . but it 's not helping . okay ? if anything , it makes me feel worse about keeping you away from the girls . i mean ... when is the last time you held your daughter ? liam : kelly 's fine . she 's fine . she 's in steffy 's care . you 're -- you 're the one who 's suffering , hope . you 're the one who needs help . hope : stop . go be with them , liam . please . they 're your family . brooke : it is understandable that you 'd feel that way about thomas . what he 's been through is -- is horrific , with caroline . it has changed his life forever . ridge : his life , yes . his -- his life as a parent . not his romantic life . brooke : yeah , that was a shock , to find out they were n't a couple . what do you think happened ? they were so good together . ridge : well , sometimes people get interested in other people . brooke : you think it was another woman ? ridge : [ sighs ] brooke : maybe somebody he was involved with before . sally ? ridge : yeah -- yeah , you know , i 'm pretty sure it is another woman . but , uh ... i 'd be willing to bet it 's not sally . hope : go be with your girls . okay ? i know you miss them . liam : hope , kelly is safe and cared for . beli -- believe me , if there were an actual need for me to be in paris , i would be on the next flight . there isn't . hope : but you do n't have to stay her out of obligation for me . look , i 'm an adult , okay ? i can take care of myself . but kelly and phoebe are children , and they need their dad . so go . be the father that you and i never had . sally : what do i know about hope 's marriage ? um ... i mean , the same as you , i 'm guessing , assuming you 've been talking to steffy . thomas : i 've heard some from her , some from hope . sally : losing a child has to be extremely difficult on a relationship . thomas : no doubt . sally : so why are you asking about it ? thomas : i want to know your take . sally : [ sighs ] okay . um ... did you hear hope took off her ring and insisted that liam go back to steffy and the girls ? thomas : yeah . she feels guilty . sally : yeah , tremendous guilt . thomas : [ sighs ] do you think they can work this out ? sally : from what i see , it feels more and more like maybe hope is n't ready to . thomas : wait , what do you mean ? sally : [ sighs ] thomas : you can tell me . i 'll explain it in a minute . sally : i am under the impression that ... [ sighs ] ... they have n't exactly been together lately . intimately . thomas : oh . sally : minute 's up . explain . thomas : okay , well , you know hope and i used to be together . sally : yes . yes . you had proposed to her . but that was a long time ago . thomas : right . sally : wait a second . are you telling me ... ? thomas : uh , look , i - i was just ... i 've been spending time with her and douglas lately , and douglas adores her . and -- and she 's talking to him about caroline , and about beth , and ... i do n't know . it just -- it started making sense to me . sally : are you falling for her ? thomas : well , does it count as falling if ... sally : if you never really got over her ? seriously ? ! thomas : well , yeah . i mean ... [ sighs ] i 've always loved hope . it does n't take away from what we had . but i 'm seeing them now , and how amazing they are together ... and it works . and i 'm realizing that , yeah , i 'm in love with her . and ... she 's the one woman i never truly got over . brooke : if not sally , then who ? do you know ? ridge : [ sighs ] you know what , my -- my sweet , lovely wife ? sometimes it 's better not to , um ... brooke : right . yes . the less we involve ourselves in our children 's love lives , the better . ridge : mm - hmm . i wish somebody told that to your mother once upon a time . ridge : wow . brooke : [ chuckles ] thomas will be okay . ridge : yeah . and so will hope . brooke : i know . hope : look , i realize you want to stay in l.a. because you 're worried about me . but everyone is worried about me , and i ca n't take it anymore . th - the looks of pity and concern . i realize they 're with good intent , but it is just a constant reminder of my failure . and -- and those worried looks , it just reinforces my doubts , you know ? that ... maybe if i had stayed awake that -- liam : okay . okay , okay . let -- all right . hope : [ sighs ] liam : let 's run this out . okay . let 's say you 're right . that you could have kept beth alive by not passing out . i do n't think that 's true . but i believe you that you do . [ inhales ] so now what ? how -- how do we move forward ? how do i help you recover ? how do i -- how do i help you forgive yourself ? hope : i do n't know . liam : i do n't know , either . i do n't know , either . but i 'm gon na guess that the right answer is not you pushing me away . i should be caring for you . i should be -- i should be holding you . i should be loving you . hope : and i want that , too . i want to move on and to live life and to be like the way we were , but i -- i do n't know . my body is still in mourning . i 'm not ready yet . and ... i 'm not sure i 'll ever be able to get over what happened . liam : you 're not supposed to get over it . our daughter died . that 's not something you get over . that 's not how this works . hope : [ sobs , sighs ] liam : but you should be able to let me in . you should let me be the husband that you need me to be , the husband that i -- that i promised you i would be when we said our vows . hope , y - you -- you 've ...

[ chuckles ] hey , and listen , uh , i 'm sorry about giving you a hard time about your girlfriend in front of molly . i just want to know who this woman is , that 's all . jordan : i thought we were on the same page here . we see each other in secret , or we do n't see each other at all . i mean , if thomas knew what you were up to with me , he would cut you off just like he cut me off , and that can not happen . tj : i just do n't get it . what , shawn ? are you embarrassed to say who she is or something ? shawn : [ chuckles ] no , not at all . tj : what ? is it a fling ? shawn : no , no , ma i care about her too much for that . tj : then what 's the story , man ? look , if she 's important to you , then she 's important to me . [ chuckles ] why wo n't you tell me who you 're seeing , man ? shawn : tj , look , okay , i feel like i 'm sneaking around and keeping this secret from you , and it is n't right . and , uh ... you know , i would n't want you to do that to me , so i 'm not gon na keep doing it to y . so , i 'm just gon na trust that you 'll understand . tj : what 's going on , man ? who you been seeing ? shawn : your mother . jordan : it 's important for me to know who i 'm working for , considering i 'm taking all the risks . i need to know who 's calling the shots . and when i asked julian who he 's answering to , he just , you know , shuts me down with this patronizing excuse that , uh , i do n't need to know the boss 's identity . so i 'm appealing to you , woman to woman . ava : julian 's not being patronizing . believe me . you do n't want anything to do with the man who gives the orders . jordan : and why not ? ava : because it could put your son in danger . he uses our children against us , jordan , and no amount of amulets will protect them from him . julian : you got to help me out here , buddy . how am i gon na convince your grandma to take me back ? i mean , i ca n't exactly quit the business because , well , my boss has the management skills of idi amin . if i walk , he shoots someone i love or he burns their house down , with you almost in it , and that is never gon na happen to you . you understand me ? never , never , never , never . [ chuckles ] danny : i 'm not . julian : good . all right . i 'm never gon na let you into this crazy , sick world i live in . he made me hurt your aunt molly 's father , which i did n't like at all . [ sighs ] i 'll tell you something . molly was right . ric lansing is an innocent man . he is . [ door opens ] alexis : hi . ned : hey . alexis : i s you 're eating for two . what ? are you pregnant ? ned : [ laughs ] of course not . i 'm not even married . alexis : o oh , i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to besmirch your honor . ned : apology accepted . no , the food is actually olivia 's . um , she could barely touch it 'cause she 's so nervous and worried about dante and lulu . alexis : oh , yeah , i heard about that . any news ? ned : no . no . alexis : must be awful for her , huh ? ned : yeah , it 's killing her to think that they may be in danger . and i wish there was something more i could do other than just encourage her to eat her food and tell her to lean on her faith in order to get her through all this . alexis : i did n't know the two of you knew each other that well . ned : well , we 're spending a little time together . casually . we 've gone to a movie and had a couple meals . alexis : oh . yeah . so , you 're datingish . ned : no . no . no , um , olivia 's not ready for that . you know , the blow - up with sonny is pretty recent . so we 're just hanging out as friends . alexis : yeah . ned : [ clears throat ] alexis : so , you want to go out with me ? nathan : this has got to work . maxie : you can do it . i know you can . actually , you probably could have used a paperclip to get us out of those handcuffs on the fourth of july . not that i 'm complaining . that was a pleasant handcuff situation . this , not so much . nathan : i can feel it click , but i ca n't get it to turn . maxie : focus . nathan : i 'm working on it . maxie : i know , but we really need to get out of here . nathan : i know . [ handcuff clicks ] maxie : was that a click ? did i just hear a click ? nathan : i think so . maxie : is it working ? nathan : yeah . maxie : oh , my god ! i 'm free ! nathan : all right , all right , get me unlocked . maxie : okay . [ door buzzes , opens ] what is going on in here ? what the hell happened ? nathan : had to get your attention somehow . we want to talk to who 's in charge . maxie : we want to know what happened to our friends . where are dante and lulu ? nathan : you ca n't keep us here forever . yeah , that 's above my pay grade . my job is to make sure you stay put . maxie : uh , hello , it 's not like we can go anywhere . [ door buzzes , unlocks ] just keep it down . maxie : nice work . nathan : all right , now hurry up and get me out of these . maxie : okay . nathan : tilt it down . tilt it down . you 'll feel it slide into place . maxie : i think i got it . okay . nathan : okay , now -- now turn it to release the locking mechanism . maxie : no , it does n't want to move . nathan : it just takes a little bit more force . get some leverage . maxie : okay . oh ! no ! i broke it . nathan : it 's all right , it 's all right . check around . maybe there 's another paperclip . maxie : [ sighs ] no . no , i have a better idea . nathan : really ? please dazzle me with your creativity . i ca n't wait to hear about your innovations in lock -- maxie : i 'm gon na go get help . tj : so you and my mom are ... wait . wait , wait . it does n't make sense , because you two are constantly getting your fight on . shawn : well , somewhere along the line , that changed . tj : [ sighs ] i mean it , shawn . you 're kidding , right ? shawn : would i kid about the fact that i 'm with your mom ? tj : good point . ow . shawn : you know , something happened with your mom and me , and all of that anger turned into something else . all of a sudden , we realized that we care about each other . you know that whole thing about there 's a thin line between rage and -- tj : yeah , i get it . look , at risk of stating the obvious , my mom works for the jeromes , and you work for sonny . does n't anybody have a problem with this , particularly sonny ? does he know you 're spending personal time with the enemy ? shawn : look , sonny knows about the situation , and he trusts me , and it 's not a problem . tj : is n't this a problem for you , shawn ? you 're cool being all close and cozy with a drug trafficker ? jordan : ava , what happened ? what did the boss do to you ? ava : forget it . forget i said anything . jordan : no , no , i know that he went after julian 's son , lucas . i mean , is -- is he doing the same thing to you ? is he threatening kiki ? ava : yeah . he is . it 's my own fault . he called here one day , and i tried to make some power move . i waded in right where i did n't belong . i thought i 'd be better served by making his acquaintance and staying in the dark . jordan : yeah , well , i mean , that 's what i was thinking , too . ava : do n't do it . do n't make the same mistake i did . you 'll be as sorry as i am now . jordan : if you regret it this much and your daughter 's life is in danger , why you letting our boss get away with it ? ava : i do n't have any choice . he 's in charge . jordan : he does n't have to be . you and i could team up and try to put a stop to it . ava , we could take him out . julian : molly . molly : what the hell are you doing here ? julian : uh , you 're okay , buddy . go play with the pins . your mother let me come over and play with danny only because she was sure you were n't gon na be here . you were supposed to be a friend 's house . molly : yeah , i was n't feeling well . and seeing you definitely is n't helping . julian : i 'm sorry that you feel that way , but can we not , you know -- molly : you know , i was right about you all along . you made this huge deal about quitting the mob , mr. clean cut , do no wrong . and the whole time , you were the same criminal you 've always been . you put my whole family in danger . at least my mom figured it out , but too bad it was n't before our house blew up . julian : listen , i am very sorry that you had to go through all that . molly : save it . what about telling the police my father was some big mobster ? you sorry about that , too ? julian : yes , i am . i am sorry you got hurt , molly . molly : hurt ? my father is dead . julian : i promise you , i never wanted that to happen . molly : yeah , that 's easy to say , as if `` sorry `` makes a damn bit of difference . julian : molly , i never wanted you to suffer . you are alexis ' daughter , sam 's sister . you 're danny 's aunt . i care about this family as if it were my own . molly : yeah , that 's easy , too . julian : it 's the truth . everyone that alexis loves is very important to me . molly : if you mean any of that , if we 're really so near and dear to you , then tell me the truth . tell me you know my father was an innocent man . ned : you want us to go out ? but i thought you were taken by the publisher / drug dealing julian jerome , who could have my legs broken if he und out i was going out with his girl . alexis : we split up . it 's over . ned : well , i know you told me that before , so it 's really over . alexis : yes , it 's really , really over . because i ca n't be with him if he does what he does . i mean , obviously he 's danny 's grandfather , so we are gon na run into each other from time to time . ned : and i take it today was one of those times . alexis : yeah , yeah . but luckily i had a court date , so i was able to leave , and then the judge dismissed the case , so here i am . ned : trying to avoid going home . alexis : exactly . but serendipitously , i run into you . and -- and interestingly enough , i - i was just telling sam that i need to find a new man in my life -- a nice , new man . so , um ... i was thinking maybe it could be you . dante : what are you doing ? what are you doing ? ! stavros : say goodbye to the detective , lulu . you wo n't be seeing him for a while . for the next nine months , you will be with me , and then we will have a family ! lulu : the hell i will ! no , you ca n't do this ! dante : lulu , you tell him ! tell him what maxie had to go through to get impregnated with our -- our embryo ! lulu : yeah , he 's right , he 's right ! our surrogate -- our surrogate 's body had to be prepared to accept the embryo ! she had to take hormones for weeks ! stavros : what ? lulu : so much for doing your research . my mother always said that you had no idea how a woman 's body worked . stavros : i do n't believe you . lulu : i only have two embryos in the whole world . one is in port charles , the one that i created with dante , and the other one is right there . you want to really want to try it only to have the pregnancy fail ? do you really want to take that chance ? stavros : we are in a renowned clinic with some of the finest doctors in the world . i will consult with them . but all that will do is delay the inevitable ! you will have my child ! that dream brought me back from the brink of death ! you are my ice princess . i will have you . and i will be back to see this through . [ door buzzes ] lulu : this is insane . [ door closes ] dante : what if -- what if he is lying ? what if this is just some grotesque way of trying to torment us ? lulu : i would be eternally grateful , but it does n't even matter . he is still as fixated on me as he was before . he 's -- he 's gon na take me away from you . ned : i 'm not a new man . i 'm an old man . well , i 'm not that old . but i am your old man , or i was . alexis : we do have a long and checkered past , an emphasis on the `` checkered `` part . but through it all , we have remained friends . that 's nice , right ? and we really had some spectacular times . ned : yes . i remember vividly the time you did the 50-yard dash down the aisle and out the church while i stood at the altar in front of what felt like half the town of port charles . alexis : yeah , well , thanks for bringing that up . and -- and i 'm sorry . i really am so sorry . and i do n't blame you if you 're still holding a grudge . ned : i am . a little . but in retrospect , i understand . fear of being a quartermaine is a pretty good excuse to run out of a church and flag down a semi . alexis : well , that was n't really the reason i ran -- ned : do you really want to rehash that particular chapter of our lives while you 're asking me out on a date ? alexis : no . ned : good . because it 's in the past . alexis . alexis : ned . ned : i 've always considered you one of the most ... challenging women i have ever met in my life . alexis : i take that as a `` yes . `` so , you want to give it another go ? ned : sure . if you want to use me to help you get over yet another gangster that you were seeing , why not ? molly : danny 's down for his nap . he should n't be listening anyway . julian : [ sighs ] look , molly , i wish i could make you understand . molly : no , julian , you 're the one who does n't understand . my father left me this . i keep it with me all the time so i will never stop fighting for him . sam is your daughter . how would you feel if she left you a letter like this ? `` it does n't matter what they say about me , because the best thing just happened to me . you came down here to me , and you told me you believe in me . you believe i 'm not the man they 're saying i am . that means everything to me . i made a lot of mistakes in my life , honey , b the biggest one was leaving you . staying away from you for so long , and still you believe in me . `` julian : your father obviously loved you very much . i can only hope that sam one day feels the same way about me . molly : you say you consider my family yours . then step up for us . prove yourself to sam . show your grandson what you 're made of . make things right . julian : it was never my intention to hurt you . molly : my father is gone . he died because you put him behind bars . please . please just tell me he was innocent . ca n't you at least give me that ? jordan : we bring julian in , and then we neutralize this bastard . ava : you 're talking mighty big for someone new to the organization jordan : i 'm not that new . come on . have n't i proven my worth ? i took the rap for julian when he blew away mickey diamond . he would have gone down for murder if it had n't been for me . ava : that 's true . jordan : our employer , whoever he is , he 's an obstacle . he needs to be removed . ava : if only it were that easy . jordan : you and your brother are living in fear because of this guy , and that 's bad for productivity . it 's especially bad for that baby that you 're carrying . let 's make it safe for our kids , ava . tell me who the boss is , and i will bring him down . tj : you know , you sure had a problem with my mom 's career choice before . what ? did that all vanish when you two started having sleepovers ? shawn : hey . look , of course i hate that jordan works in the drug trade . tj : but you 're just so crazy about her , it does n't matter ? shawn : you know , there 's a whole lot about your mother that you do n't give her enough credit for , okay ? besides , look , i 'm hoping i can persuade her to quit that business . tj : like that 's gon na happen . so this is why you were so squirrelly about telling me , because you knew i 'd freak . shawn : your mom did n't want you to know because she was afraid you were gon na write me off like you did her , okay ? you would n't have either of us in your life , you know . come on , man , this is your first year in college , and that 's a very vulnerable time . and we would n't want you to go through it alone . tj : then why even tell me the truth at all ? shawn : because i had to take the chance of you being upset with me , okay , tj ? you 're a grown man , and you deserve to know . i 'm just hoping your mom was wrong , man , and you wo n't let this come between us . so , what 's it gon na be ? i mean , can you accept this ? can you keep me in your life ? maxie : you stay here . i will go find a phone and call the police . nathan : maxie , no . we will find another lock pick . i 'm gon na come with you . maxie : even if you could get out of the shackles , you 're hurt , and you can barely move . we would get caught in two seconds . nathan : i 'm not gon na let you do this alone . maxie : i 'm the one that is responsible for getting us caught up in this mess . i will get us out of it . nathan : it 's not safe ! maxie : nathan , please , okay ? you 're not gon na win this argument . maxie : it 's my turn to do something good for you . nathan : maxie , do n't do this , okay ? we 'll figure something else out . maxie : no , there 's no time . and if we do n't work fast , the guard 's gon na notice that the door 's open . nathan : you got to close the door behind you . maxie : you want me to lock you in here ? nathan : i do n't want any of this stuff , but since you 're so determined to go , then we have to -- maxie : right , right , okay , okay . i 'm gon na go , and i will lock you in here . i 'm really sorry about that part . but i think that this is our best bet . nathan : just promise me you 'll be safe , okay ? promise you 'll come back to me . maxie : i promise . i 'm coming back to you . the coast is clear . it 's now or never . nathan : maxie . [ door closes ] nathan : stay safe . lulu : maybe stavros is lying . maybe he did n't take one of my eggs and fertilize it . it is such a disgusting idea , i ca n't even bear to think about it , much less have his child implanted in my body . dante : whether that bastard was lying or not , i swear to you , lulu , i will do whatever i have to do . but stavros will never hurt you ever again . molly : tell me the truth about my dad . please , it would mean everything to me . julian : molly , ric lansing -- [ door opens ] alexis : uh , molly , i did n't know that you would be back so early . molly : well , here i am , with your boyfriend . alexis : it 's not my -- we 're not seeing each other , molly . i told you that . molly : he 's still here , is n't he ? still a part of our lives , making himself at home in the place where we live , watching danny all by himself . julian : who 's napping . alexis : he happens to be danny 's grandfather . he has a right to be here . and he 's certainly not gon na do anything to hurt him . molly : and there you go defending him . you know , it sounds to me like it 's only a matter of time before the two of you are back together . julian : i hope molly 's right about that . alexis : you really need to let this go so that i can let this go and move on . julian : ca n't possibly be that easy . alexis : it 's not . i do have to go . i 'm meeting someone . julian : hmm . you have a date , do you ? alexis : i do . it 's really over between us , julian . shawn : tj , i 'll never forgive myself if i let my feelings for your mother come between us , man . i love you . tj : look , you know i do n't accept what my mother does for a living . you know that . but i 'm not gon na kick you out of my life for being involved with her , all right ? you 're way too important for me to let that happen . shawn : thank you , tj . i appreciate it . tj : i 'm just glad you let me know . shawn : [ chuckles ] me , too . tj : and another thing . shawn : yeah ? tj : you look all right in that sweater , man . not better than me . shawn : i appreciate that . i 'll take that . thank you . thank you . jordan : come on , ava . our boss is a scourge and a sociopath . we 're fighting sonny corinthos on one side and dodging the cops on the other . come on . something 's got to give . you have a lot to lose . ava : do n't i , though ? jordan : look , know you 're worried about kiki , and she 's a grown woman , but you have this baby to consider . tell me who our boss is , and i -- and i can begin to get things rolling to get rid of him . ava : i do like the sound of that . but it would be a major move , and i ca n't make a decision like that on the spur of the moment . jordan : come on , ava . we got to move fast here . if you could just tell me his name , then i can -- i can begin to just put things in motion at least while he 's -- ava : [ moans ] oh ! ohh ! oh ! ohh !

[ doorbell rings ] alexis : you know who that is right now ? that is big , mean diane , who 's gon na try to psych me out 'cause she likes to do that . she likes to play these kind of games . i kind of like to play those games , too , but you do n't tell anybody i said that , all right ? okay . ned : how about that blt ? olivia : oh . no , i just saw a documentary on what they do to the pigs . i ca n't eat bacon anymore . ned : olivia , you got to eat something . olivia : ned , how am i supposed to eat when my son and my daughter - in - law are in such terrible danger ? stavros : what i hold in my hand is a miracle of modern science . our child . yours and mine . all that 's left to do is implant it right there . then nine months from now , dearest lulu ... you will have our child . nathan : it 's okay . you do n't have to give me an answer to how you feel about me right now . i know the circumstances are less than ideal . maxie : you could say that . [ chuckles ] nathan : we should -- we should probably try and focus on getting out of here . maxie : yeah . probably should . nathan : [ sighs ] well , let 's get to it . maxie : i hate to break it to you , but you 're breathing funny . nathan : you do n't like how i breathe ? maxie : well , you 're trying to hide it , but it 's hurting when you breathe . what if one of those goons broke your ribs ? nathan : i 'm fine . besides , we do n't know what victor cassadine 's planning to do next . maxie : okay , well , seeing as how he 's from the crazy , creepy side of the cassadine family , i think that we need to get out of here sooner rather than later . nathan : we better get to it . maxie : what ? what is it ? nathan : nothing . i 'm fine . maxie : just be careful . nathan : there 's got to be something that we can use to pick these cuffs . maxie : remember the last time we were handcuffed together ? we were stuck that way until we got ahold of an actual key . nathan : how could i forget ? maxie : it 's probably an inappropriate time to bring it up , but that whole situation was my fault . you and the corinthos brothers gave me every opportunity to get out of it , and i acted like a stubborn brat , so i 'm sorry . nathan : do n't be . i actually had fun that night , despite the circumstances . maxie : me , too . was even a little disappointed when levi found the key . nathan : you 're not the only one , but tells me it 's gon na be a little harder to get unlocked this time . maxie : we just need to be a little creative . i 'm good at that . nathan : i 'm not surprised . maxie : well , usually i focus my creativity on , uh , accessories or finding trends . i totally saw that whole high - low hemline coming , by the way . now i 'll just have to be unconventional in my approaches to unlocking shackles . nathan : [ sighs ] the sooner , the better . we got to find dante and lulu . dante : keep your hands off of her . stavros : our own little bundle of joy , lulu . your egg , my sperm , our child .

[ sighs ] ned : olivia , i 've seen you wear that cross around your neck fore . do you know what that tells me ? that you have faith . if there was ever a time to lean on that faith , it 's now . have faith . olivia : you 're right . alexis : please do n't do this . i - i told you last night , i ca n't see you anymore . julian : i 'm not here to ask you come back to me . as much as i want to . i , um , texted sam earlier about , uh , seeing danny , and she said it would be fine . alexis : well , sam did n't mention that to me , and she 's not here . julian : so [ clears throat ] you 're gon na need some proof , huh ? here 's o exchange . look . see ? sam thought she 'd be home by now . so you gon na let me in ? oh , come on . i bought danny a monsters inc . bowling set . ca n't wait to try it out with him . alexis : okay . just -- but just for a minute , because molly -- molly is at a friend 's house doing homework , and she 's gon na be back after dinner , and i do n't want her to see you here , because then she 'll hate me and he 'll start feeling badly about her father again . julian : i understand . hey , danny ! how 's my boy , huh ? ooh , my word ! can you believe how big he 's getting ? you are . alexis : all right , so i 'm -- i 'm just gon na get my stuff and go to court . julian : no . stay . shawn : i 'd rather hear about your classes , tj would n't you , molly ? tj : [ laughs ] come on , shawn . give it up . you really think i was n't gon na tell molly all those nights you were awol ? shawn : how do you know i was n't working those nights ? tj : oh , yeah , running every night for a few weeks straight ? nah . you 're definitely seeing someone . and it must be serious . but for some reason , you 're keeping this on the d.l . is n't it time you told us who the lucky lady is ? ava : i get anxious when the guards do n't call ahead and let me know who 's coming up . that 's all . i guess my protective instincts are on high alert these days . jordan : well , that makes sense . how you feeling ? ava : fine . i feel just fine . are you here to see julian ? i 'm sorry . he 's out . but i 'd be more than happy to tell him you came by . jordan : actually , i came to , uh , see you . i came to , uh , to give you this . ava : oh . well , how sweet of you to bring me a gift . [ chuckles ] jordan : it 's for the baby . ava : oh . how clever . jordan : yeah , it 's , uh -- they 're charms to , uh , protect the baby . see , uh , this one here is a hamsa hand and , uh , a chinese knotted string and italian horn . ava : a horseshoe , too . jordan : yeah . ava : even a little angel . jordan : you pin it next to the crib to , uh , keep your baby safe . i had one for thomas , and , well , look at him . turned out to be a fine man , in college . you know , it 's never a bad thing to have an extra layer of protection . ava : is n't that the truth ? but why would you bring me anything ? what is it you want ? julian : why rush off ? we can spend some time with our grandson , right ? ca n't we at least do that ? alexis : i do n't really think that 's a good idea . because i 'm really making an effort here to move on , and -- and this is not helping . julian : alexis , it does n't have to be like this . alexis : no , you made your choice , and i 'm making mine . julian : i guess i should be grateful that you let me see danny at all . right , buddy ? alexis : you know what , julian ? i hate the business . i do n't hate you . and even though you are involved with the mob , i know that you would die first before you would let anything happen to your grandson . julian : you got that right . [ door opens ] ava : what 's going on ? we 're not close . as a matter of fact , you pretty much tricked me into hiring you at the gallery . jordan : yeah . yeah , i did . um ... i just wanted to get my foot in the door so that i could convince your brother that i 'd be good for his drug trade . i mean , you know how easily women can be underestimated in this business . ava : julian says you 're quite a powerhouse , quickly becoming indispensable to us . he certainly trusts you . jordan : not enough to at least give me the name of our boss . tj : come on , man , molly 's dying to know who she is . [ cell phone rings ] molly : oh , hey , do n't put this on me . you 're the one who 's dying to know . shawn : oh , one sec . i got to take -- i got to take this call . tj : you 're not getting out of this ! oh , man . molly : maybe you should back off . tj : i will if you come and check out my dorm room . molly : i 'm supposed to go to a study group at carson 's . tj : come on , molly . the classes just started . molly : ap history is gon na be really tough . mr. tinney already h a quiz planned for friday . but i think i 'm gon na skip carson 's anyway . tj : and go to my room ? molly : and go home . i 'm not feeling so hot . tj : really ? you do look a little flushed . hmm . and you 're a little hot . in more ways than one . [ both laugh ] tj : but really , you want me to drive you home ? molly : no , i 'll be okay . i know you want to stay and keep interrogating shawn . tj : i kinda do . but will , uh , you take a rain check on the rm - room tour ? molly : absolutely . tj : okay . molly : just do n't invite any of those college girls over instead . tj : never . come here . get out of here . text me when you get home , okay ? molly : okay . i love you . tj : [ sighs ] olivia : [ inhales deeply ] ned : [ clears throat ] olivia : i should probably go . i , uh , i left rocco with sonny , and god help us all if that man tries to change a diaper , so ... ned : wait , um ... olivia : what ? ned : eat one fry . one delicious fry . for me . olivia : for you ? ned : [ laughs ] thank you . now , would it kill you to take one for the road ? olivia : thank you for being such a good friend to me . ned : of course . lulu : putting that embryo into me is n't gon na give you a child . there 's something wrong with me . ca n't carry a baby to term . dante : that 's right . we would n't even have a child if someone did n't carry him for us . lulu : that 's why we needed a surrogate . so your plan is n't gon na work . stavros : [ chuckles ] nathan : [ groans ] damn it . maxie : is that too far to reach ? nathan : did n't we agree we were gon na have to be creative here ? [ sighs ] [ grunting ] come on . come on . maxie : you did it ! you -- you knocked down the tray . that 's great . now -- well , now what do we do ? nathan : the file . see the file ? paperclip . maxie : i got it . i got it ! yes ! we got the paperclip ! what do we need it for ? nathan : it 's not a paperclip . it 's a handcuff key . lulu : i know that embryo is precious to you , but if you put it inside of me , i 'll just lose it . our child will die . stavros : brava . excellent attempt at manipulating me , but you failed . lulu : this is n't manipulation . this is the most painful truth in my life . i ca n't carry my own baby . dante : that 's right . all the doctors said so . stavros : since my recovery , i have been doing my research on you . you recently had a minor surgery to correct your female problem . you are a whole woman and capable of having my child . lulu : it 's not gon na happen . dante : lulu 's always been a whole woman . you 've just never been man enough to have her 'cause you 're a freak . stavros : call me what you will . but i will have a baby with your wife . you will have my child , lulu . so let 's get started , shall we ? ! shawn : so , how 's it look ? tj : great , man . [ chuckles ] hey , and listen , uh , i 'm sorry about giving you a hard time about your girlfriend in front of molly . i just want to know who this woman is , that 's all . jordan : i thought we were on the same page here . we see each other in secret , or we do n't see each other at all . i mean , if thomas knew what you were up to with me , he would cut you off just like he cut me off , and that can not happen . tj : i just do n't get it . what , shawn ? are you embarrassed to say who she is or something ? shawn : [ chuckles ] no , not at all . tj : what ? is it a fling ? shawn : no , no , ma i care about her too much for that . tj : then what 's the story , man ? look , if she 's important to you , then she 's important to me . [ chuckles ] why wo n't you tell me who you 're seeing , man ? shawn : tj , look , okay , i feel like i 'm sneaking around and keeping this secret from you , and it is n't right . and , uh ... you know , i would n't want you to do that to me , so i 'm not gon na keep doing it to y . so , i 'm just gon na trust that you 'll understand . tj : what 's going on , man ? who you been seeing ? shawn : your mother . jordan : it 's important for me to know who i 'm working for , considering i 'm taking all the risks . i need to know who 's calling the shots . and when i asked julian who he 's answering to , he just , you know , shuts me down with this patronizing excuse that , uh , i do n't need to know the boss 's identity . so i 'm appealing to you , woman to woman . ava : julian 's not being patronizing . believe me . you do n't want anything to do with the man who gives the orders . jordan : and why not ? ava : because it could put your son in danger . he uses our children against us , jordan , and no amount of amulets will protect them from him . julian : you got to help me out here , buddy . how am i gon na convince your grandma to take me back ? i mean , i ca n't exactly quit the business because , well , my boss has the management skills of idi amin . if i walk , he shoots someone i love or he burns their house down , with you almost in it , and that is never gon na happen to you . you understand me ? never , never , never , never . [ chuckles ] danny : i 'm not . julian : good . all right . i 'm never gon na let you into this crazy , sick world i live in . he made me hurt your aunt molly 's father , which i did n't like at all . [ sighs ] i 'll tell you something . molly was right . ric lansing is an innocent man . he is . [ door opens ] alexis : hi . ned : hey . alexis : i s you 're eating for two . what ? are you pregnant ? ned : [ laughs ] of course not . i 'm not even married . alexis : o oh , i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to besmirch your honor . ned : apology accepted . no , the food is actually olivia 's . um , she could barely touch it 'cause she 's so nervous and worried about dante and lulu . alexis : oh , yeah , i heard about that . any news ? ned : no . no . alexis : must be awful for her , huh ? ned : yeah , it 's killing her to think that they may be in danger . and i wish there was something more i could do other than just encourage her to eat her food and tell her to lean on her faith in order to get her through all this . alexis : i did n't know the two of you knew each other that well . ned : well , we 're spending a little time together . casually . we 've gone to a movie and had a couple meals . alexis : oh . yeah . so , you 're datingish . ned : no . no . no , um , olivia 's not ready for that . you know , the blow - up with sonny is pretty recent . so we 're just hanging out as friends . alexis : yeah . ned : [ clears throat ] alexis : so , you want to go out with me ? nathan : this has got to work . maxie : you can do it . i know you can . actually , you probably could have used a paperclip to get us out of those handcuffs on the fourth of july . not that i 'm complaining . that was a pleasant handcuff situation . this , not so much . nathan : i can feel it click , but i ca n't get it to turn . maxie : focus . nathan : i 'm working on it . maxie : i know , but we really need to get out of here . nathan : i know . [ handcuff clicks ] maxie : was that a click ? did i just hear a click ? nathan : i think so . maxie : is it working ? nathan : yeah . maxie : oh , my god ! i 'm free ! nathan : all right , all right , get me unlocked . maxie : okay . [ door buzzes , opens ] what is going on in here ? what the hell happened ? nathan : had to get your attention somehow . we want to talk to who 's in charge . maxie : we want to know what happened to our friends . where are dante and lulu ? nathan : you ca n't keep us here forever . yeah , that 's above my pay grade . my job is to make sure you stay put . maxie : uh , hello , it 's not like we can go anywhere . [ door buzzes , unlocks ] just keep it down . maxie : nice work . nathan : all right , now hurry up and get me out of these . maxie : okay . nathan : tilt it down . tilt it down . you 'll feel it slide into place . maxie : i think i got it . okay . nathan : okay , now -- now turn it to release the locking mechanism . maxie : no , it does n't want to move . nathan : it just takes a little bit more force . get some leverage . maxie : okay . oh ! no ! i broke it . nathan : it 's all right , it 's all right . check around . maybe there 's another paperclip . maxie : [ sighs ] no . no , i have a better idea . nathan : really ? please dazzle me with your creativity . i ca n't wait to hear about your innovations in lock -- maxie : i 'm gon na go get help . tj : so you and my mom are ... wait . wait , wait . it does n't make sense , because you two are constantly getting your fight on . shawn : well , somewhere along the line , that changed . tj : [ sighs ] i mean it , shawn . you 're kidding , right ? shawn : would i kid about the fact that i 'm with your mom ? tj : good point . ow . shawn : you know , something happened with your mom and me , and all of that anger turned into something else . all of a sudden , we realized that we care about each other . you know that whole thing about there 's a thin line between rage and -- tj : yeah , i get it . look , at risk of stating the obvious , my mom works for the jeromes , and you work for sonny . does n't anybody have a problem with this , particularly sonny ? does he know you 're spending personal time with the enemy ? shawn : look , sonny knows about the situation , and he trusts me , and it 's not a problem . tj : is n't this a problem for you , shawn ? you 're cool being all close and cozy with a drug trafficker ? jordan : ava , what happened ? what did the boss do to you ? ava : forget it . forget i said anything . jordan : no , no , i know that he went after julian 's son , lucas . i mean , is -- is he doing the same thing to you ? is he threatening kiki ? ava : yeah . he is . it 's my own fault . he called here one day , and i tried to make some power move . i waded in right where i did n't belong . i thought i 'd be better served by making his acquaintance and staying in the dark . jordan : yeah , well , i mean , that 's what i was thinking , too . ava : do n't do it . do n't make the same mistake i did . you 'll be as sorry as i am now . jordan : if you regret it this much and your daughter 's life is in danger , why you letting our boss get away with it ? ava : i do n't have any choice . he 's in charge . jordan : he does n't have to be . you and i could team up and try to put a stop to it . ava , we could take him out . julian : molly . molly : what the hell are you doing here ? julian : uh , you 're okay , buddy . go play with the pins . your mother let me come over and play with danny only because she was sure you were n't gon na be here . you were supposed to be a friend 's house . molly : yeah , i was n't feeling well . and seeing you definitely is n't helping . julian : i 'm sorry that you feel that way , but can we not , you know -- molly : you know , i was right about you all along . you made this huge deal about quitting the mob , mr. clean cut , do no wrong . and the whole time , you were the same criminal you 've always been . you put my whole family in danger . at least my mom figured it out , but too bad it was n't before our house blew up . julian : listen , i am very sorry that you had to go through all that . molly : save it . what about telling the police my father was some big mobster ? you sorry about that , too ? julian : yes , i am . i am sorry you got hurt , molly . molly : hurt ? my father is dead . julian : i promise you , i never wanted that to happen . molly : yeah , that 's easy to say , as if `` sorry `` makes a damn bit of difference . julian : molly , i never wanted you to suffer . you are alexis ' daughter , sam 's sister . you 're danny 's aunt . i care about this family as if it were my own . molly : yeah , that 's easy , too . julian : it 's the truth . everyone that alexis loves is very important to me . molly : if you mean any of that , if we 're really so near and dear to you , then tell me the truth . tell me you know my father was an innocent man . ned : you want us to go out ? but i thought you were taken by the publisher / drug dealing julian jerome , who could have my legs broken if he und out i was going out with his girl . alexis : we split up . it 's over . ned : well , i know you told me that before , so it 's really over . alexis : yes , it 's really , really over . because i ca n't be with him if he does what he does . i mean , obviously he 's danny 's grandfather , so we are gon na run into each other from time to time . ned : and i take it today was one of those times . alexis : yeah , yeah . but luckily i had a court date , so i was able to leave , and then the judge dismissed the case , so here i am . ned : trying to avoid going home . alexis : exactly . but serendipitously , i run into you . and -- and interestingly enough , i - i was just telling sam that i need to find a new man in my life -- a nice , new man . so , um ... i was thinking maybe it could be you . dante : what are you doing ? what are you doing ? ! stavros : say goodbye to the detective , lulu . you wo n't be seeing him for a while . for the next nine months , you will be with me , and then we will have a family ! lulu : the hell i will ! no , you ca n't do this ! dante : lulu , you tell him ! tell him what maxie had to go through to get impregnated with our -- our embryo ! lulu : yeah , he 's right , he 's right ! our surrogate -- our surrogate 's body had to be prepared to accept the embryo ! she had to take hormones for weeks ! stavros : what ? lulu : so much for doing your research . my mother always said that you had no idea how a woman 's body worked . stavros : i do n't believe you . lulu : i only have two embryos in the whole world . one is in port charles , the one that i created with dante , and the other one is right there . you want to really want to try it only to have the pregnancy fail ? do you really want to take that chance ? stavros : we are in a renowned clinic with some of the finest doctors in the world . i will consult with them . but all that will do is delay the inevitable ! you will have my child ! that dream brought me back from the brink of death ! you are my ice princess . i will have you . and i will be back to see this through . [ door buzzes ] lulu : this is insane . [ door closes ] dante : what if -- what if he is lying ? what if this is just some grotesque way of trying to torment us ? lulu : i would be eternally grateful , but it does n't even matter . he is still as fixated on me as he was before . he 's -- he 's gon na take me away from you . ned : i 'm not a new man . i 'm an old man . well , i 'm not that old . but i am your old man , or i was . alexis : we do have a long and checkered past , an emphasis on the `` checkered `` part . but through it all , we have remained friends . that 's nice , right ? and we really had some spectacular times . ned : yes . i remember vividly the time you did the 50-yard dash down the aisle and out the church while i stood at the altar in front of what felt like half the town of port charles . alexis : yeah , well , thanks for bringing that up . and -- and i 'm sorry . i really am so sorry . and i do n't blame you if you 're still holding a grudge . ned : i am . a little . but in retrospect , i understand . fear of being a quartermaine is a pretty good excuse to run out of a church and flag down a semi . alexis : well , that was n't really the reason i ran -- ned : do you really want to rehash that particular chapter of our lives while you 're asking me out on a date ? alexis : no . ned : good . because it 's in the past . alexis . alexis : ned . ned : i 've always considered you one of the most ... challenging women i have ever met in my life . alexis : i take that as a `` yes . `` so , you want to give it another go ? ned : sure . if you want to use me to help you get over yet another gangster that you were seeing , why not ? molly : danny 's down for his nap . he should n't be listening anyway . julian : [ sighs ] look , molly , i wish i could make you understand . molly : no , julian , you 're the one who does n't understand . my father left me this . i keep it with me all the time so i will never stop fighting for him . sam is your daughter . how would you feel if she left you a letter like this ? `` it does n't matter what they say about me , because the best thing just happened to me . you came down here to me , and you told me you believe in me . you believe i 'm not the man they 're saying i am . that means everything to me . i made a lot of mistakes in my life , honey , b the biggest one was leaving you . staying away from you for so long , and still you believe in me . `` julian : your father obviously loved you very much . i can only hope that sam one day feels the same way about me . molly : you say you consider my family yours . then step up for us . prove yourself to sam . show your grandson what you 're made of . make things right . julian : it was never my intention to hurt you . molly : my father is gone . he died because you put him behind bars . please . please just tell me he was innocent . ca n't you at least give me that ? jordan : we bring julian in , and then we neutralize this bastard . ava : you 're talking mighty big for someone new to the organization jordan : i 'm not that new . come on . have n't i proven my worth ? i took the rap for julian when he blew away mickey diamond . he would have gone down for murder if it had n't been for me . ava : that 's true . jordan : our employer , whoever he is , he 's an obstacle . he needs to be removed . ava : if only it were that easy . jordan : you and your brother are living in fear because of this guy , and that 's bad for productivity . it 's especially bad for that baby that you 're carrying . let 's make it safe for our kids , ava . tell me who the boss is , and i will bring him down . tj : you know , you sure had a problem with my mom 's career choice before . what ? did that all vanish when you two started having sleepovers ? shawn : hey . look , of course i hate that jordan works in the drug trade . tj : but you 're just so crazy about her , it does n't matter ? shawn : you know , there 's a whole lot about your mother that you do n't give her enough credit for , okay ? besides , look , i 'm hoping i can persuade her to quit that business . tj : like that 's gon na happen . so this is why you were so squirrelly about telling me , because you knew i 'd freak . shawn : your mom did n't want you to know because she was afraid you were gon na write me off like you did her , okay ? you would n't have either of us in your life , you know . come on , man , this is your first year in college , and that 's a very vulnerable time . and we would n't want you to go through it alone . tj : then why even tell me the truth at all ? shawn : because i had to take the chance of you being upset with me , okay , tj ? you 're a grown man , and you deserve to know . i 'm just hoping your mom was wrong , man , and you wo n't let this come between us . so , what 's it gon na be ? i mean , can you accept this ? can you keep me in your life ? maxie : you stay here . i will go find a phone and call the police . nathan : maxie , no . we will find another lock pick . i 'm gon na come with you . maxie : even if you could get out of the shackles , you 're hurt , and you can barely move . we would get caught in two seconds . nathan : i 'm not gon na let you do this alone . maxie : i 'm the one that is responsible for getting us caught up in this mess . i will get us out of it . nathan : it 's not safe ! maxie : nathan , please , okay ? you 're not gon na win this argument . maxie : it 's my turn to do something good for you . nathan : maxie , do n't do this , okay ? we 'll figure something else out . maxie : no , there 's no time . and if we do n't work fast , the guard 's gon na notice that the door 's open . nathan : you got to close the door behind you . maxie : you want me to lock you in here ? nathan : i do n't want any of this stuff , but since you 're so determined to go , then we have to -- maxie : right , right , okay , okay . i 'm gon na go , and i will lock you in here . i 'm really sorry about that part . but i think that this is our best bet . nathan : just promise me you 'll be safe , okay ?

[ previously_on ] jack : this is the address of the cabin . if you leave right now , you and kyle can spend part of valentine 's day together . kyle : i love lola . summer : she broke up with you , kyle . kyle : we had an argument . it 's just wrong , summer . summer : how can it wrong when it feels so right ? phyllis : what happened to victor 's court date ? nick : they could n't start the trial because mom confessed to killing j.t . mia : arturo ... rey : what did you say ? rey : you want him ? you got him ! rey : i love you . sharon : i love you , too . sharon : it 's an old phone bill . rey : it says you called 911 the night of april 13th , the night j.t . died . sharon : i do n't know what -- rey : on your phone bill . it says you called 911 . sharon : no ! i would remember if i -- okay , well , it was just for a few seconds , so it must have been a misdial . rey : no , nobody confuses calling 911 and a normal call . besides , it 's not like you hung up and called another number right away . sharon : well , then it was a pocket - dial . i 'm sure that that must happen all the time , and it was months ago , so obviously i ca n't recall that far back . rey : april 13th -- the night of victoria 's party , the night nikki says j.t . died . sharon : it was an accident , rey , one that i do n't even remember . rey : take your time . just -- just try . sharon : why are you changing the subject ? maybe you think coming over tonight and saying what you said was a mistake ? but we need to work this out , rey . you and i ... where we go from here . nick : and everything at dark horse ? jack : under control . we 've had enough movement lately . we can afford to sit tight for a while . no major acquisitions until your life calms down . how 's nikki ? nick : i could n't even tell you . michael 's been the only one who 's been able to see her at this point . jack : please tell me christine sees through this . she 's only holding nikki to make victor sweat . nick : i do n't know what christine 's thinking . i know my dad is hoping that the charges against my mom will get dropped soon . jack : you need to take a break , my friend . get out tonight , and just take it easy . nick : it 's just gon na be a quiet night at home . jack : okay . suit yourself . keep me posted on nikki ? nick : will do . phyllis : you 're right . nick : i do n't know what i 'm right about . phyllis : i heard you on the phone just now . yes , we 're staying in , but it 's not gon na be a quiet , brooding night in front of the fireplace . nick : do i brood ? phyllis : well , you are extremely sexy while doing so , but tonight is game night . nick : [ chuckles ] well , i 'm guessing we 're not talking backgammon . jack : wow . kerry : yeah ? jack : you look ... kerry : happy valentine 's day . arturo : what is wrong with you ? seriously ? shouting my name during sex with my brother ? mia : i -- i did n't shout . it just came out . arturo : oh , my god . mia , everything was okay . everything was okay , and you just had to ruin it . why ca n't you just be happy ? it 's always drama and chaos with you . rey and i were finally okay . he had just agreed to be the best man at my wedding . mia : that 's what really matters here . not my marriage , no . it 's all about your royal wedding . and that 's what started all of this , by the way . that ridiculous photo shoot with abby . arturo : what are you even talking about ? mia : i saw the magazine spread . you 're in a designer suit looking all ... it was in my head when rey and i were ... arturo : so -- so you had to picture me while you were having sex with your husband ? mia : do n't be disgusting . arturo : you need to fix this . now . find rey and apologize . mia : do n't you think i 've tried that ? he 's not at the station , and he wo n't answer my phone calls . arturo : [ sighs ] you really did it this time , mia . mia : i know that ! rey warned me i was out of chances . he might not ever forgive me for this . kyle : mm , i told you this is n't gon na happen , summer . lola ! you came ! lola : yeah ! i did . i came here to tell you that breaking up was a mistake . kyle : it -- it was , but we can get through this . lola : i saw you , kyle ! okay ? i saw you with her ! all over each other . i was right all along . sex is the only thing that matters to you . additional sponsorship mariah : do me a favor . do n't tell anyone that i 'm about to really , really enjoy tonight . tessa : your secret 's safe with me . mariah : [ chuckles ] tessa : [ clears throat ] mariah : you 're thinking . tessa : something people do . mariah : no , this is different . you take , like , a deep breath . it 's like a silent sigh . you 're thinking about nikki 's confession . tessa : no . no , i 'm not . i 'm thinking about my beautiful girlfriend and our beautiful night , not this horrible j.t . -- mariah : sharon is safe . you 're safe . tessa : hey , i was not just thinking about myself , okay ? mariah : i know that you 're not just thinking about yourself . but i 'm thinking about you . and i 'm thinking about sharon . you know , i talked to her earlier , and she seemed ... calm . okay , she didn't . she was putting her affairs in order , but i -- i swear , i -- i really do n't think nikki has implicated anybody but herself . and you forget -- i know the newmans . they know how to keep a secret . sharon : maybe we should n't do this now . any of it . you 're upset about mia . rey : no , i am talking about you , not her . sharon : suddenly , this has become some kind of an interrogation . you know , you 're focusing on work because the personal side of your life is too complex and painful right now . so maybe we should just both take some time . rey : no , no , no , no . it 's all tied together . i am a cop , this is my case , and you are the woman that i can not get out of my head . maybe this 99 call , maybe the smoke detector went off , or you were worried when mariah had passed out . sharon : honestly , rey , i think it 's just like i said . it was a pocket - dial . or maybe mariah got ahold of my phone . rey : well , did you set your phone down someplace ? sharon : how would i remember that ? rey : when did mariah pass out ? before or after the phone call ? sharon : i was n't checking the time . maybe you have that written down in your notes at the office . rey : if victoria had picked up your phone when j.t . showed up while the rest of you were in the kitchen ... then j.t . could have cut off her call . but it would n't make sense for victoria to leave that out of her statement . nikki did n't mention anything about a 911 call , either , in her confession . sharon : you 're really calling that a confession ? rey : why would n't i ? sharon : i just did n't think you would take anything nikki said seriously . rey : yeah , she 's got some holes in her story . but she 's not the only one . kyle : nothing happened . right before you came in , i told summer there was no way . summer : oh , yeah , like lola 's gon na believe me . she saw what she saw . kyle : are you seriously doing this to me right now ? after all that about being my friend . lola : you know , you ca n't help yourself . i 'm standing right here , it 's still all about summer to you . you told me that there was nothing between you , that you wanted nothing . but that 's not true , right ? obviously . summer : obviously . kyle : shut it ! lola : you gaslighted me , kyle , okay ? i knew it was there , the two of you . i would say it , and you would deny it , but still , you made me feel like i was paranoid and insecure and that i was n't being fair to you . the whole drive up here , i was planning my apology to tell you that breaking up was a mistake . but , meanwhile , you two were climbing all over each other . you know , thank god that i did n't have sex with you . kerry : oh , wow ! jack : wow . kerry : oh , this was a wonderful idea . i would have just spent the whole night in the lab otherwise , and i 've missed too many moments because of work . jack : oh , i get that . it 's okay to work hard . you got to remember to play hard , too . kerry : i do n't suppose kyle and lola will be here tonight . jack : actually , kyle had plans of his own for lola , but they 've hit a bit of a rough patch . kerry : oh , no . jack : not to worry . they 're having a valentine 's day reunion . lola 's on her way there to surprise him right now . as we speak , they 're probably making up . kerry : [ giggles ] jack : come on . summer : um , excuse me . kyle : you 're leaving . now . lola : do n't bother . i never should have come . kyle : but you did because you did n't want to be apart . so at least ... let me explain . summer : oh , yeah , no , this should be good . take off your coat , stay a while . kyle : why are you still talking ? please . you came all this way . if you want to go after i explain , i understand . i wo n't stop you . but please , just hear me out . okay . thank you . i know it looks like i brought summer up here after you turned me down . lola : i know you didn't . kyle : you do ? that 's good . that 's great . lola : your father told me that you came to the cabin alone . kyle : i was . i came up here ... to wallow . feeling sorry for myself . lola : well , then you must have made a call . kyle : no . summer : no , he did n't need to call me , not after this . kyle : what ? no ! i did not give that to summer . summer : whatever you need to say , that 's fine . kyle : if you had come up here two minutes earlier , it was purely platonic this whole time . lola : and how long was that , exactly ? summer : well , let 's see , enough time for a sleigh ride , oh , and ice skating . and do n't forget the champagne , kyle . kyle : it was not like that . i made those plans for you . for us . i want to be with you . summer was just keeping me company . lola : with her tongue . kyle : that was an accident . summer : oh , yeah , no , that 's right . he tripped , lips first . kyle : i had too much to drink . summer : not so much that you did n't know where my face was . kyle : it was n't about sex . i was n't even thinking in those terms because that was never gon na happen with her . and i 'm not making excuses here , but we broke up . so even if summer and i -- it does n't matter because i wouldn't . look , you 're the only one i want to be with . i mean it , lola . please . summer : oh , my god , please do not tell me that you bought that load of crap . mia : i ca n't find you , and you wo n't answer my phone calls , but i 'm going to the club , rey , as planned . i 'm sorry . i love you . what i said , it did n't mean anything , i swear . come be with me . let me take this right . rey : i know you , sharon . you are smart and conscientious . if you called 911 that night -- sharon : i do n't remember , rey , okay ? and if i did make that call , then it was an accident . i told you earlier at the station , i do n't have any new information about that night . rey : this is new information , and i need to follow it up . sharon : [ sighs ] this just does n't make sense . why this urgency ? you came here tonight to talk about your feelings and about us , but maybe i was wrong . maybe you came here preying upon my emotions so that you could get to what your real obsession is about , and that 's this case . so was that just some kind of a trick before ? because , if it was ... rey : you do n't believe that , not for one second . sharon : oh , okay . yeah . now , tell me what i think and what i feel and what i 'm holding back . you know what , you and i do n't know each other as we as we thought we did . and tonight proves that . you came into town making friends and doing favors , saying you worked in financial services , when , really , it was all about the case . you used your charms and your smiles and your friendships just to get information out of people . what makes tonight any different ? rey : this case and what i feel for you are both real , and neither one is gon na go away if we just ignore it . sharon : i -- i 'm sorry i ca n't tell you what you want to hear , but i just feel like -- i feel like you came in here tonight and just turned everything upside - down . rey : earlier , sharon , you said if i had something specific to ask you about that night , i could . now i am asking you , but you do n't want to hear it . tell me why . nick : you smell good . phyllis : how good ? nick : too good . phyllis : mm - hmm . nick : new perfume ? phyllis : one of kerry 's new fragrances . if you play your cards right , that 's all i 'm gon na be wearing by the end of the night . kyle : can you just get out already ? summer : he is so smooth . it 's like an art form with him . you know , i 'm gon na let you in on a little secret -- you and i have something in common . i wanted kyle to be my first , too . lola : that 's none of your business . summer : we were just so hot for each other back then , i guess it never really went away . kyle : summer has an agenda . lola : the same agenda she had when she walked in , but you did n't tell her to leave because there 's something about this that you enjoy , that you love . kyle : was i supposed to kick her because the woman that dumped me might get mad ? lola : you know what , i hate this drama . i do n't have time for this in my life , and i do n't have time for her . i have a job and priorities and ... you want something that i ca n't give you . and i 'm not talking about sex . i do n't need all this drama the way that you do . kyle : look , then why do you make so much of it ? always telling me it 's over then making me beg to get you back ? it does n't have to be this hard , lola ! lola : you 're right . i always take you back . well , guess what ? you are here , she 's here . and i 'm gone . this time , for good . summer : good for you , standing up for yourself . kyle : how could you do this to me ? phyllis : i got a stack of questions right here , okay ? you have to answer something about our past . it 's like our own little quiz show . nick : okay . phyllis : mm - hmm . nick : and if i get one right ? phyllis : you take off one thing that i 'm wearing . nick : and if i get one wrong , `` hypothetically ? `` phyllis : i take off one thing you 're wearing . nick : so it 's win - win ? phyllis : mm - hmm . nick : all right , well , let 's go , speed this up . i got stuff to do . phyllis : okay . what was the name of summer 's favorite stuffed animal ? nick : mr . ears , next question . all right . ooh , i mean , so many options . where should i start ? i mean , i could come up here to one of these sexy earrings . or we could just start going down south here , maybe hit one of these more big- ticket items . phyllis : time limit 's up . nick : you never said there was a time limit . phyllis : well , i 'm saying it now . nick : that 's changing the rules . phyllis : look , if you do n't want to play ... nick : no , no , no . i take it back . i want to play . phyllis : good , because we 're just getting started . kerry : hello , mia . jack : happy valentine 's day . mia : hi ! nice to see you both of you . kerry : is rey around ? i 'd love to say hi . mia : you 'd think on valentine 's day the station would n't be busy , but here i am , waiting . jack : well , arturo and abby should be here soon . if you 'd like to join us while you wait for rey ... mia : how nice of you . i -- i might just do that . but , no , you two enjoy . kerry : okay . mia : another , please ! abby : this is great , but i hate to say it , next year might be very different . mariah : because you 'll be married ? abby : because the restaurant will be open , and tessa might not have the night off . arturo : you 're part of the crew ? tessa : yes , and i ca n't wait . i finally found the perfect stylish - yet- wo n't - break - my - feet shoe that goes with the uniforms . abby : attention to detail . i love it . [ giggles ] arturo : congrats . you might get sick of lola 's cooking , though . abby : oh . tessa : uh , never . i know that for sure . [ laughter ] arturo : hey , it is our first and last valentine 's day before we are an old married couple . so how about you and i spend some alone time together ? abby : well , we just got here . is something wrong ? no , no , i am not running away because of her . if she still has an issue , then she can slink off into the night . we are staying put . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . rey : nikki confessed . she brought new information to the table . victor gave us nothing . the women at victor 's house , you all basically said the same thing , although , victoria 's story kept changing . so i have to talk to you about that night again . other officers and assistant das will do the same thing later on . sharon : you 're handing me over to strangers ? rey : i have to now that i am personally involved . sharon : that just sounds so ... cold . clinical . rey : i 'm in love with you , sharon . sharon : you 're in love with me ? rey : you had to know . even before i got here . sharon : i just never let myself think in those terms . rey : [ sighs ] sharon : and then , when the words came out , for both of us ... you know , i know that it 's a risk and it 's scary and we did n't actually resolve anything , but ... in that one moment , everything felt ... right . and then i came back in the room , and everything had changed , again , because of a phone bill . and i 'm sorry i ca n't give you the answers you want about that phone call , but my head is spinning right now . the man i love loves me , and it 's just -- it 's a lot . rey : let 's just ... let 's just go over it one more time . maybe i can help you remember more from that night . sharon : all right . i 'll go over it again one more time , for you , and then we -- we need to talk . we really need to get back to the reason you came here . rey : we will , just this one last time , and then it 'll be done . jack : wait , wait , wait , wait . you 're serious ? kerry : oh , no , yeah , i mean it . miko texted me today . jack : the landscape architect from the resort in bora bora is texting you ? kerry : mm - hmm , yeah , we hit it off . anyway , she 's flying to paris to meet with that hotel developer you talked to at the swim - up bar ... jack : girard ? kerry : [ laughs ] jack : this is fantastic . is this romance or business , the meeting ? kerry : oh , god , romance . pure romance . she is smitten . jack : boy , you two really did hit it off , did n't you ? kerry : well , you know , she was very serious about her work , and then ... her face would just light up whenever girard was around . i guess i could relate . jack : who knew 2019 would begin so well ? 2018 -- [ sighs ] ashley left , my mother slipping further and further away , so much loss and pain and ... and then you . kerry : mm , and you . i was so rude to you when i got to town . jack : you were kind of tough , yeah . kerry : i was ... dismissive . i just knew i had to be empowered in my career in a way i 'd never been before . jack : but phyllis got to you first . kerry : she was very convincing . jack : yeah , no argument there . as a board member , if not the c.e.o . of the company , i want to tell you , i 'm very happy that you are working for a company my father founded . kerry : you know , when i first moved to town , the plan was supposed to be to dedicate myself to my work . my personal life was something i would just worry about later . even down to freezing my eggs . i think it was just a way to distance myself from the here and now . jack ... the here and now is so much better than i ever thought it could be . jack : you 're so good at it all . really , i mean , when you 're in the lab , you 're there 100 % . when you 're with me , it 's 100 % . it took me a long time to strike that balance . with you , it just seems so easy . okay , this is the right time to do it . kerry : jack ... jack : you might not even like it . go ahead . just know that it is n't about the bling to me . when you wear this , i want you to always think `` jack gave this to me , and he obviously adores me . `` kerry : [ gasps ] i will . i will think that . abby : that is what my uncle jack looks like happy . arturo : yeah . abby : now that i think about it , it 's been a while since i 've seen him like that . abby : okay , you can not watch mia all night . arturo : i 'm sorry . it 's a reflex . i ca n't relax when she 's around . she can go off at any second . abby : well , is n't babysitting the toddler supposed to be rey 's job ? where is he ? arturo : not here . for a reason . abby : what does that mean ? arturo : rey and mia had a fight . abby : what about ? arturo : that would be me . kyle : that really is how you have fun , is n't it ? blowing up my personal life . summer : okay , she dumped you , kyle . that 's why you were here pouting , and i saved you from your misery . this is the kind of thank - you that i get ? kyle : lola came to see me , to be with me , and you just could n't let that happen . summer : oh , yeah , no , i 'm sorry that i did n't just vanish in a puff of smoke when she came in peeking through the window like a creeper ! kyle : once she came in , you could have backed me up . summer : okay , and you could have treated me like a human being with feelings . kyle : you do n't have feelings , summer ! not real ones . you have -- i do n't know -- impulses , urges , fun , flirty , jealousy , snark . that 's your emotional range . that 's where i meet you . and it 's normally not the worst . [ sighs ] you know , you make me laugh . you annoy the hell out of me . and when you walked in this cabin , you knew i had nothing to offer you . summer : yeah , and then i kissed you , and you kissed me back . kyle : [ sighs ] summer : because we are not friends , kyle , we are a couple that has been more off than on , and the on is still there , it 's just waiting . kyle : you 're delusional . summer : no , kyle , you want me , and not just because you 've been sad and sexless for months . you want me because it 's me . lola can see it . you 're just the only one who ca n't admit it . phyllis : what ? how did you get that ? nick : your first gaming avatar ? i mean , come on . it was the original warrior princess with the fiery red hair . pretty good game , awesome avatar . and you 're stalling . phyllis : [ clears throat ] nick : mmm . i mean , i am killing it at this game . look at you . phyllis : well , i was n't really wearing much , anyway . nick : that was your choice , and i appreciate it . thank you . phyllis : hmm . nick : you did that on purpose . phyllis : yes , i did . okay . who was on the cover of the first issue of restless style we edited ? do you forfeit ? nick : no , just -- it 's a ridiculous question , and i just -- give me a second . phyllis : okay , timer 's on . nick : no , no , no , no . you 're pressuring me , just -- phyllis : tick , tock , tick , tock ... nick : stop , stop , stop . no , i got it . phyllis : bing ! ruby aldridge . nick : ruby aldridge . ugh ! how 'd i forget that ? phyllis : okay . let me help you out here . mmm , mmm , mmm . [ gasps ] look at you . okay . double or nothing ? nick : uh - huh . kerry : jack , look at how it catches the light . jack : i 'm glad you like it . do you want more wine ? kerry : oh , yeah , let 's try the leconte ' 83 . jack : we could have that sent to our room . kerry : upstairs ? jack : according the reservation . kerry : oh , my , when did you -- jack : i always have something up my sleeve , you know that . kerry : yes , you do . jack : so ? kerry : yes , lead the way . jack : well , we 're not going there right away . i have another surprise . kerry : of course you do . jack : come along . mariah : it 's strange seeing mia not move . or talk in any way . tessa : well , rey is probably a little busy after nikki 's confession . after that night in the car , nikki was as scary as anyone i 'd ever seen . i -- i never thought she would go to the cops . out of all the ones to crack , i thought -- i thought it would be sharon . sharon : mariah made margaritas . rey : how many did you have ? sharon : not as many as mariah . rey : was nikki drinking that night ? sharon : she was sober . you know that . rey : she was drunk at the jabot christmas party . sharon : that 's only because she was terrified that you were going to arrest victor . rey : was she worried about anything that night at victoria 's ? sharon : no . none of us were . look , it was all my idea to just get victoria 's mind off of j.t . it was purposely intended to be a night of fun . nothing serious was allowed . rey : until j.t . showed up . sharon : but we did n't know that until later . rey : nikki did . she 's saying now that when she went upstairs to victoria 's room , she found j.t . there . sharon : i do n't -- i 've never heard that until now . rey : did you see nikki go upstairs ? sharon : i did n't -- i really do n't know . that was a long time ago . rey : when did victoria say that j.t . had been abusing her ? sharon : that night , before she went upstairs . rey : that night . sharon : it was a blur . rey : you said it was supposed to be a fun night , but that would be serious , upsetting stuff , especially to victoria 's mom . sharon : it -- yeah , it was . it was -- it was awful , but we just did n't get into it . victoria was tired . rey : and nikki went upstairs to check on her , after knowing what that bastard had put her through , and then she found j.t . in her room . maybe somebody called 911 . sharon : that 's not what happened . rey : you knew j.t . was there . you saw him , did n't you ? kyle : whatever used to be there for us ... summer : used to be ? kyle : it does n't matter . summer : yeah , of course it does . kyle : when you said it was more than sex -- what exactly do you think we have ? you 're not capable of being a friend , so why the hell would i want anything more with you ? i let you in , your response is to stab me in the back . it 's not like that with lola . summer : yeah , no , right , of course not , because it 's all singing squirrels and bunny rabbits because of her innocence and purity . she 's just so perfect , kyle . kyle : i do n't need perfect ! she loved me ! she never once tried to hurt me . it 's all you do . it 's all you know . summer : [ scoffs ] [ door closes ] phyllis : this is it , folks . for the whole shebang ! ready ? nick : shebang it is . let 's go . phyllis : what was the name of the bar in new mexico where we had our first wedding ? nick : that 's a good question . phyllis : are you kidding me ? our place ! our bar ! our first wedding ! nick : yeah , no , no , no . i got it . i got it . i 'm just -- i 'm thinking . phyllis : [ clears throat ] [ sighs ] nick : okay . could it be , um ... pepe 's roadhouse ? phyllis : where -- where did you get that ? when did you do that ? nick : i heard the place was closing down . and this beaut could n't just end up on a trash heap somewhere . happy valentine 's day . phyllis : yes , it is . happy , happy valentines ' day . abby : is -- is she trying to get rey to divorce her ? is that what 's happening here ? how could she think that he 'd want to spend tonight with her after she admitted she still thinks about you ? arturo : i do n't think she meant to tell him . abby : have you met mia ? of course she did . she plans everything out , and then just pretends like she gets caught up in the moment . no , she knows how much trouble she causes , and she loves it . arturo : which is why we are going to ignore her , all right ? we 're going to keep our distance , and -- oh , god . abby : [ scoffs ] you and i ... are gon na have a little chat . rey : you saw him , sharon , did n't you ? just tell me . all of it . sharon : i -- i never said that -- rey : who are you covering for ? nikki 's already confessed , so it could n't have been her . she could n't have buried that body alone , so it had to be somebody younger and stronger . victor was in the icu that night , so it could n't have been him . sharon : why are you doing this ? rey : earlier , you asked me if others had been arrested . you assumed there would have been others . who ? nick ? sharon : what ? no ! rey : yes . he 's young , strong . he would do anything for his mother . you were about to marry him , so of course you 'd keep his secret , even after the break- up because the two of you share children . and a romance can fall apart , but not if a child is involved . that makes it unbreakable , sharon . sharon : i know you do n't trust nick , i know that , but how much of this is about him , and how much of this is about us ? rey : he ca n't protect you , sharon , if he goes down for this . so if you know something , you need to tell me now . i can mitigate , sharon . i do n't know , maybe get a deal . maybe it wo n't even have to get that far . so tell me about the 911 call . you know j.t . was at the house . you had just heard how dangerous he could be . sharon : please do n't do this . rey : i need to know , sharon . did j.t . threaten nikki ? did you hear him threaten nikki ? -did nikki threaten j.t . ? did she take off after him when he left ? did she have a weapon with her when she left ? nikki never left . neither did j.t . sharon : it was self - defense . we had no choice ! | it is a romantic valentine 's day for some genoa city couples but some couples get their hearts broken . mariah and tessa spend a rromantic date night at the athletic club as do jack and kerry . kery tells jack that she has decided that her romantic life is just as important as her work . nick and phyllis spend a cozy night at home playing a game of strip trivia . lolafinally bursts into the cabin after seeing summer kiss kyle and she tells him that she knew that sex is the only thing that mattered to him . kyle explains that summer showed up at the cabin by surprise and he was there alone wallowing in his misery because she ( lola ) had broken up with him . kyle tells lola that summer kissed him twice and both times he told her he did n't want a romantic relationship with her . summer lies and tells lola that kyle gave her the invitation to the cabin after they were broken up and she met him their later . lola believes summer and storms out of the cabin . kyle makes it clear to summer he does n't even want to be her friend anymore because all she does is hurt people . rey questions sharon about the 911 call the night of jt 's death and tells him it was a misdial then she tries to distract him by talking about the next step in their relationship . rey tells sharon that even thoughhe is in love with he must do his job and take her in fr questioning by the d.a . or the assistant d.a .. rey thinks nick helped nikki bury the body but whe nsharon does n't say a word he continues with his rapid fire questions untill sharon blurts out that nikki acted in self defense and they had no other choice . abby tells mia they have to talk after arturo tells abby mia said his name while making love to rey and that is why mia and rey had an arguement . | <s>[INST] [ previously_on ] jack : this is the address of the cabin . if you leave right now , you and kyle can spend part of valentine 's day together . kyle : i love lola . summer : she broke up with you , kyle . kyle : we had an argument . it 's just wrong , summer . summer : how can it wrong when it feels so right ? phyllis : what happened to victor 's court date ? nick : they could n't start the trial because mom confessed to killing j.t . mia : arturo ... rey : what did you say ? rey : you want him ? you got him ! rey : i love you . sharon : i love you , too . sharon : it 's an old phone bill . rey : it says you called 911 the night of april 13th , the night j.t . died . sharon : i do n't know what -- rey : on your phone bill . it says you called 911 . sharon : no ! i would remember if i -- okay , well , it was just for a few seconds , so it must have been a misdial . rey : no , nobody confuses calling 911 and a normal call . besides , it 's not like you hung up and called another number right away . sharon : well , then it was a pocket - dial . i 'm sure that that must happen all the time , and it was months ago , so obviously i ca n't recall that far back . rey : april 13th -- the night of victoria 's party , the night nikki says j.t . died . sharon : it was an accident , rey , one that i do n't even remember . rey : take your time . just -- just try . sharon : why are you changing the subject ? maybe you think coming over tonight and saying what you said was a mistake ? but we need to work this out , rey . you and i ... where we go from here . nick : and everything at dark horse ? jack : under control . we 've had enough movement lately . we can afford to sit tight for a while . no major acquisitions until your life calms down . how 's nikki ? nick : i could n't even tell you . michael 's been the only one who 's been able to see her at this point . jack : please tell me christine sees through this . she 's only holding nikki to make victor sweat . nick : i do n't know what christine 's thinking . i know my dad is hoping that the charges against my mom will get dropped soon . jack : you need to take a break , my friend . get out tonight , and just take it easy . nick : it 's just gon na be a quiet night at home . jack : okay . suit yourself . keep me posted on nikki ? nick : will do . phyllis : you 're right . nick : i do n't know what i 'm right about . phyllis : i heard you on the phone just now . yes , we 're staying in , but it 's not gon na be a quiet , brooding night in front of the fireplace . nick : do i brood ? phyllis : well , you are extremely sexy while doing so , but tonight is game night . nick : [ chuckles ] well , i 'm guessing we 're not talking backgammon . jack : wow . kerry : yeah ? jack : you look ... kerry : happy valentine 's day . arturo : what is wrong with you ? seriously ? shouting my name during sex with my brother ? mia : i -- i did n't shout . it just came out . arturo : oh , my god . mia , everything was okay . everything was okay , and you just had to ruin it . why ca n't you just be happy ? it 's always drama and chaos with you . rey and i were finally okay . he had just agreed to be the best man at my wedding . mia : that 's what really matters here . not my marriage , no . it 's all about your royal wedding . and that 's what started all of this , by the way . that ridiculous photo shoot with abby . arturo : what are you even talking about ? mia : i saw the magazine spread . you 're in a designer suit looking all ... it was in my head when rey and i were ... arturo : so -- so you had to picture me while you were having sex with your husband ? mia : do n't be disgusting . arturo : you need to fix this . now . find rey and apologize . mia : do n't you think i 've tried that ? he 's not at the station , and he wo n't answer my phone calls . arturo : [ sighs ] you really did it this time , mia . mia : i know that ! rey warned me i was out of chances . he might not ever forgive me for this . kyle : mm , i told you this is n't gon na happen , summer . lola ! you came ! lola : yeah ! i did . i came here to tell you that breaking up was a mistake . kyle : it -- it was , but we can get through this . lola : i saw you , kyle ! okay ? i saw you with her ! all over each other . i was right all along . sex is the only thing that matters to you . additional sponsorship mariah : do me a favor . do n't tell anyone that i 'm about to really , really enjoy tonight . tessa : your secret 's safe with me . mariah : [ chuckles ] tessa : [ clears throat ] mariah : you 're thinking . tessa : something people do . mariah : no , this is different . you take , like , a deep breath . it 's like a silent sigh . you 're thinking about nikki 's confession . tessa : no . no , i 'm not . i 'm thinking about my beautiful girlfriend and our beautiful night , not this horrible j.t . -- mariah : sharon is safe . you 're safe . tessa : hey , i was not just thinking about myself , okay ? mariah : i know that you 're not just thinking about yourself . but i 'm thinking about you . and i 'm thinking about sharon . you know , i talked to her earlier , and she seemed ... calm . okay , she didn't . she was putting her affairs in order , but i -- i swear , i -- i really do n't think nikki has implicated anybody but herself . and you forget -- i know the newmans . they know how to keep a secret . sharon : maybe we should n't do this now . any of it . you 're upset about mia . rey : no , i am talking about you , not her . sharon : suddenly , this has become some kind of an interrogation . you know , you 're focusing on work because the personal side of your life is too complex and painful right now . so maybe we should just both take some time . rey : no , no , no , no . it 's all tied together . i am a cop , this is my case , and you are the woman that i can not get out of my head . maybe this 99 call , maybe the smoke detector went off , or you were worried when mariah had passed out . sharon : honestly , rey , i think it 's just like i said . it was a pocket - dial . or maybe mariah got ahold of my phone . rey : well , did you set your phone down someplace ? sharon : how would i remember that ? rey : when did mariah pass out ? before or after the phone call ? sharon : i was n't checking the time . maybe you have that written down in your notes at the office . rey : if victoria had picked up your phone when j.t . showed up while the rest of you were in the kitchen ... then j.t . could have cut off her call . but it would n't make sense for victoria to leave that out of her statement . nikki did n't mention anything about a 911 call , either , in her confession . sharon : you 're really calling that a confession ? rey : why would n't i ? sharon : i just did n't think you would take anything nikki said seriously . rey : yeah , she 's got some holes in her story . but she 's not the only one . kyle : nothing happened . right before you came in , i told summer there was no way . summer : oh , yeah , like lola 's gon na believe me . she saw what she saw . kyle : are you seriously doing this to me right now ? after all that about being my friend . lola : you know , you ca n't help yourself . i 'm standing right here , it 's still all about summer to you . you told me that there was nothing between you , that you wanted nothing . but that 's not true , right ? obviously . summer : obviously . kyle : shut it ! lola : you gaslighted me , kyle , okay ? i knew it was there , the two of you . i would say it , and you would deny it , but still , you made me feel like i was paranoid and insecure and that i was n't being fair to you . the whole drive up here , i was planning my apology to tell you that breaking up was a mistake . but , meanwhile , you two were climbing all over each other . you know , thank god that i did n't have sex with you . kerry : oh , wow ! jack : wow . kerry : oh , this was a wonderful idea . i would have just spent the whole night in the lab otherwise , and i 've missed too many moments because of work . jack : oh , i get that . it 's okay to work hard . you got to remember to play hard , too . kerry : i do n't suppose kyle and lola will be here tonight . jack : actually , kyle had plans of his own for lola , but they 've hit a bit of a rough patch . kerry : oh , no . jack : not to worry . they 're having a valentine 's day reunion . lola 's on her way there to surprise him right now . as we speak , they 're probably making up . kerry : [ giggles ] jack : come on . summer : um , excuse me . kyle : you 're leaving . now . lola : do n't bother . i never should have come . kyle : but you did because you did n't want to be apart . so at least ... let me explain . summer : oh , yeah , no , this should be good . take off your coat , stay a while . kyle : why are you still talking ? please . you came all this way . if you want to go after i explain , i understand . i wo n't stop you . but please , just hear me out . okay . thank you . i know it looks like i brought summer up here after you turned me down . lola : i know you didn't . kyle : you do ? that 's good . that 's great . lola : your father told me that you came to the cabin alone . kyle : i was . i came up here ... to wallow . feeling sorry for myself . lola : well , then you must have made a call . kyle : no . summer : no , he did n't need to call me , not after this . kyle : what ? no ! i did not give that to summer . summer : whatever you need to say , that 's fine . kyle : if you had come up here two minutes earlier , it was purely platonic this whole time . lola : and how long was that , exactly ? summer : well , let 's see , enough time for a sleigh ride , oh , and ice skating . and do n't forget the champagne , kyle . kyle : it was not like that . i made those plans for you . for us . i want to be with you . summer was just keeping me company . lola : with her tongue . kyle : that was an accident . summer : oh , yeah , no , that 's right . he tripped , lips first . kyle : i had too much to drink . summer : not so much that you did n't know where my face was . kyle : it was n't about sex . i was n't even thinking in those terms because that was never gon na happen with her . and i 'm not making excuses here , but we broke up . so even if summer and i -- it does n't matter because i wouldn't . look , you 're the only one i want to be with . i mean it , lola . please . summer : oh , my god , please do not tell me that you bought that load of crap . mia : i ca n't find you , and you wo n't answer my phone calls , but i 'm going to the club , rey , as planned . i 'm sorry . i love you . what i said , it did n't mean anything , i swear . come be with me . let me take this right . rey : i know you , sharon . you are smart and conscientious . if you called 911 that night -- sharon : i do n't remember , rey , okay ? and if i did make that call , then it was an accident . i told you earlier at the station , i do n't have any new information about that night . rey : this is new information , and i need to follow it up . sharon : [ sighs ] this just does n't make sense . why this urgency ? you came here tonight to talk about your feelings and about us , but maybe i was wrong . maybe you came here preying upon my emotions so that you could get to what your real obsession is about , and that 's this case . so was that just some kind of a trick before ? because , if it was ... rey : you do n't believe that , not for one second . sharon : oh , okay . yeah . now , tell me what i think and what i feel and what i 'm holding back . you know what , you and i do n't know each other as we as we thought we did . and tonight proves that . you came into town making friends and doing favors , saying you worked in financial services , when , really , it was all about the case . you used your charms and your smiles and your friendships just to get information out of people . what makes tonight any different ? rey : this case and what i feel for you are both real , and neither one is gon na go away if we just ignore it . sharon : i -- i 'm sorry i ca n't tell you what you want to hear , but i just feel like -- i feel like you came in here tonight and just turned everything upside - down . rey : earlier , sharon , you said if i had something specific to ask you about that night , i could . now i am asking you , but you do n't want to hear it . tell me why . nick : you smell good . phyllis : how good ? nick : too good . phyllis : mm - hmm . nick : new perfume ? phyllis : one of kerry 's new fragrances . if you play your cards right , that 's all i 'm gon na be wearing by the end of the night . kyle : can you just get out already ? summer : he is so smooth . it 's like an art form with him . you know , i 'm gon na let you in on a little secret -- you and i have something in common . i wanted kyle to be my first , too . lola : that 's none of your business . summer : we were just so hot for each other back then , i guess it never really went away . kyle : summer has an agenda . lola : the same agenda she had when she walked in , but you did n't tell her to leave because there 's something about this that you enjoy , that you love . kyle : was i supposed to kick her because the woman that dumped me might get mad ? lola : you know what , i hate this drama . i do n't have time for this in my life , and i do n't have time for her . i have a job and priorities and ... you want something that i ca n't give you . and i 'm not talking about sex . i do n't need all this drama the way that you do . kyle : look , then why do you make so much of it ? always telling me it 's over then making me beg to get you back ? it does n't have to be this hard , lola ! lola : you 're right . i always take you back . well , guess what ? you are here , she 's here . and i 'm gone . this time , for good . summer : good for you , standing up for yourself . kyle : how could you do this to me ? phyllis : i got a stack of questions right here , okay ? you have to answer something about our past . it 's like our own little quiz show . nick : okay . phyllis : mm - hmm . nick : and if i get one right ? phyllis : you take off one thing that i 'm wearing . nick : and if i get one wrong , `` hypothetically ? `` phyllis : i take off one thing you 're wearing . nick : so it 's win - win ? phyllis : mm - hmm . nick : all right , well , let 's go , speed this up . i got stuff to do . phyllis : okay . what was the name of summer 's favorite stuffed animal ? nick : mr . ears , next question . all right . ooh , i mean , so many options . where should i start ? i mean , i could come up here to one of these sexy earrings . or we could just start going down south here , maybe hit one of these more big- ticket items . phyllis : time limit 's up . nick : you never said there was a time limit . phyllis : well , i 'm saying it now . nick : that 's changing the rules . phyllis : look , if you do n't want to play ... nick : no , no , no . i take it back . i want to play . phyllis : good , because we 're just getting started . kerry : hello , mia . jack : happy valentine 's day . mia : hi ! nice to see you both of you . kerry : is rey around ? i 'd love to say hi . mia : you 'd think on valentine 's day the station would n't be busy , but here i am , waiting . jack : well , arturo and abby should be here soon . if you 'd like to join us while you wait for rey ... mia : how nice of you . i -- i might just do that . but , no , you two enjoy . kerry : okay . mia : another , please ! abby : this is great , but i hate to say it , next year might be very different . mariah : because you 'll be married ? abby : because the restaurant will be open , and tessa might not have the night off . arturo : you 're part of the crew ? tessa : yes , and i ca n't wait . i finally found the perfect stylish - yet- wo n't - break - my - feet shoe that goes with the uniforms . abby : attention to detail . i love it . [ giggles ] arturo : congrats . you might get sick of lola 's cooking , though . abby : oh . tessa : uh , never . i know that for sure . [ laughter ] arturo : hey , it is our first and last valentine 's day before we are an old married couple . so how about you and i spend some alone time together ? abby : well , we just got here . is something wrong ? no , no , i am not running away because of her . if she still has an issue , then she can slink off into the night . we are staying put . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . rey : nikki confessed . she brought new information to the table . victor gave us nothing . the women at victor 's house , you all basically said the same thing , although , victoria 's story kept changing . so i have to talk to you about that night again . other officers and assistant das will do the same thing later on . sharon : you 're handing me over to strangers ? rey : i have to now that i am personally involved . sharon : that just sounds so ... cold . clinical . rey : i 'm in love with you , sharon . sharon : you 're in love with me ? rey : you had to know . even before i got here . sharon : i just never let myself think in those terms . rey : [ sighs ] sharon : and then , when the words came out , for both of us ... you know , i know that it 's a risk and it 's scary and we did n't actually resolve anything , but ... in that one moment , everything felt ... right . and then i came back in the room , and everything had changed , again , because of a phone bill . and i 'm sorry i ca n't give you the answers you want about that phone call , but my head is spinning right now . the man i love loves me , and it 's just -- it 's a lot . rey : let 's just ... let 's just go over it one more time . maybe i can help you remember more from that night . sharon : all right . i 'll go over it again one more time , for you , and then we -- we need to talk . we really need to get back to the reason you came here . rey : we will , just this one last time , and then it 'll be done . jack : wait , wait , wait , wait . you 're serious ? kerry : oh , no , yeah , i mean it . miko texted me today . jack : the landscape architect from the resort in bora bora is texting you ? kerry : mm - hmm , yeah , we hit it off . anyway , she 's flying to paris to meet with that hotel developer you talked to at the swim - up bar ... jack : girard ? kerry : [ laughs ] jack : this is fantastic . is this romance or business , the meeting ? kerry : oh , god , romance . pure romance . she is smitten . jack : boy , you two really did hit it off , did n't you ? kerry : well , you know , she was very serious about her work , and then ... her face would just light up whenever girard was around . i guess i could relate . jack : who knew 2019 would begin so well ? 2018 -- [ sighs ] ashley left , my mother slipping further and further away , so much loss and pain and ... and then you . kerry : mm , and you . i was so rude to you when i got to town . jack : you were kind of tough , yeah . kerry : i was ... dismissive . i just knew i had to be empowered in my career in a way i 'd never been before . jack : but phyllis got to you first . kerry : she was very convincing . jack : yeah , no argument there . as a board member , if not the c.e.o . of the company , i want to tell you , i 'm very happy that you are working for a company my father founded . kerry : you know , when i first moved to town , the plan was supposed to be to dedicate myself to my work . my personal life was something i would just worry about later . even down to freezing my eggs . i think it was just a way to distance myself from the here and now . jack ... the here and now is so much better than i ever thought it could be . jack : you 're so good at it all . really , i mean , when you 're in the lab , you 're there 100 % . when you 're with me , it 's 100 % . it took me a long time to strike that balance . with you , it just seems so easy . okay , this is the right time to do it . kerry : jack ... jack : you might not even like it . go ahead . just know that it is n't about the bling to me . when you wear this , i want you to always think `` jack gave this to me , and he obviously adores me . `` kerry : [ gasps ] i will . i will think that . abby : that is what my uncle jack looks like happy . arturo : yeah . abby : now that i think about it , it 's been a while since i 've seen him like that . abby : okay , you can not watch mia all night . arturo : i 'm sorry . it 's a reflex . i ca n't relax when she 's around . she can go off at any second . abby : well , is n't babysitting the toddler supposed to be rey 's job ? where is he ? arturo : not here . for a reason . abby : what does that mean ? arturo : rey and mia had a fight . abby : what about ? arturo : that would be me . kyle : that really is how you have fun , is n't it ? blowing up my personal life . summer : okay , she dumped you , kyle . that 's why you were here pouting , and i saved you from your misery . this is the kind of thank - you that i get ? kyle : lola came to see me , to be with me , and you just could n't let that happen . summer : oh , yeah , no , i 'm sorry that i did n't just vanish in a puff of smoke when she came in peeking through the window like a creeper ! kyle : once she came in , you could have backed me up . summer : okay , and you could have treated me like a human being with feelings . kyle : you do n't have feelings , summer ! not real ones . you have -- i do n't know -- impulses , urges , fun , flirty , jealousy , snark . that 's your emotional range . that 's where i meet you . and it 's normally not the worst . [ sighs ] you know , you make me laugh . you annoy the hell out of me . and when you walked in this cabin , you knew i had nothing to offer you . summer : yeah , and then i kissed you , and you kissed me back . kyle : [ sighs ] summer : because we are not friends , kyle , we are a couple that has been more off than on , and the on is still there , it 's just waiting . kyle : you 're delusional . summer : no , kyle , you want me , and not just because you 've been sad and sexless for months . you want me because it 's me . lola can see it . you 're just the only one who ca n't admit it . phyllis : what ? how did you get that ? nick : your first gaming avatar ? i mean , come on . it was the original warrior princess with the fiery red hair . pretty good game , awesome avatar . and you 're stalling . phyllis : [ clears throat ] nick : mmm . i mean , i am killing it at this game . look at you . phyllis : well , i was n't really wearing much , anyway . nick : that was your choice , and i appreciate it . thank you . phyllis : hmm . nick : you did that on purpose . phyllis : yes , i did . okay . who was on the cover of the first issue of restless style we edited ? do you forfeit ? nick : no , just -- it 's a ridiculous question , and i just -- give me a second . phyllis : okay , timer 's on . nick : no , no , no , no . you 're pressuring me , just -- phyllis : tick , tock , tick , tock ... nick : stop , stop , stop . no , i got it . phyllis : bing ! ruby aldridge . nick : ruby aldridge . ugh ! how 'd i forget that ? phyllis : okay . let me help you out here . mmm , mmm , mmm . [ gasps ] look at you . okay . double or nothing ? nick : uh - huh . kerry : jack , look at how it catches the light . jack : i 'm glad you like it . do you want more wine ? kerry : oh , yeah , let 's try the leconte ' 83 . jack : we could have that sent to our room . kerry : upstairs ? jack : according the reservation . kerry : oh , my , when did you -- jack : i always have something up my sleeve , you know that . kerry : yes , you do . jack : so ? kerry : yes , lead the way . jack : well , we 're not going there right away . i have another surprise . kerry : of course you do . jack : come along . mariah : it 's strange seeing mia not move . or talk in any way . tessa : well , rey is probably a little busy after nikki 's confession . after that night in the car , nikki was as scary as anyone i 'd ever seen . i -- i never thought she would go to the cops . out of all the ones to crack , i thought -- i thought it would be sharon . sharon : mariah made margaritas . rey : how many did you have ? sharon : not as many as mariah . rey : was nikki drinking that night ? sharon : she was sober . you know that . rey : she was drunk at the jabot christmas party . sharon : that 's only because she was terrified that you were going to arrest victor . rey : was she worried about anything that night at victoria 's ? sharon : no . none of us were . look , it was all my idea to just get victoria 's mind off of j.t . it was purposely intended to be a night of fun . nothing serious was allowed . rey : until j.t . showed up . sharon : but we did n't know that until later . rey : nikki did . she 's saying now that when she went upstairs to victoria 's room , she found j.t . there . sharon : i do n't -- i 've never heard that until now . rey : did you see nikki go upstairs ? sharon : i did n't -- i really do n't know . that was a long time ago . rey : when did victoria say that j.t . had been abusing her ? sharon : that night , before she went upstairs . rey : that night . sharon : it was a blur . rey : you said it was supposed to be a fun night , but that would be serious , upsetting stuff , especially to victoria 's mom . sharon : it -- yeah , it was . it was -- it was awful , but we just did n't get into it . victoria was tired . rey : and nikki went upstairs to check on her , after knowing what that bastard had put her through , and then she found j.t . in her room . maybe somebody called 911 . sharon : that 's not what happened . rey : you knew j.t . was there . you saw him , did n't you ? kyle : whatever used to be there for us ... summer : used to be ? kyle : it does n't matter . summer : yeah , of course it does . kyle : when you said it was more than sex -- what exactly do you think we have ?

monica : lulu , you are forbidden to see logan hayes . lulu : really ? monica : yeah . lulu : and -- and how do you plan on enforcing that arbitrary rule ? alice : well , until further notice , you 're under house arrest . maxie : are you ok ? you 've been kind of quiet . coop : i guess being the ping - pong ball between sonny and d.a . lansing is starting to get to me . maxie : well , you seemed to be handling it ok before logan got shot . is that why you 're upset -- because that loser took a bullet ? oh -- ok , reality check . logan knew you were joining the force , and he knew working for sonny would put you guys on opposite sides , but he did n't care . coop : you 're saying logan deserves to be shot because he was going after a job ? maxie : no , i 'm saying logan deserves to face the consequences of his actions . and you should n't get upset over an inevitable confrontation that just happened sooner instead of later . coop : yeah , well , easy to say . maxie : i know you consider logan a friend , and i know you guys went through some hellish stuff in iraq , but have you asked yourself -- if the roles were reversed , would logan be as concerned about you as you are about him ? because if you 're honest , you wo n't like the answer . carly : you look tired . jason : yeah , well , i have n't been getting much sleep lately . carly : i ca n't stand the thought of you being in here , away from everyone you love . i really ca n't stand the thought that your pathetic excuse for a rlfriend has n't even been here once to see you . jason : actually , carly , sam -- carly : i 'm sorry , ok , but has she lifted one finger to support you , jason , has she ? has she been here at all since you got the ok that you could have visitors ? no , of course not . it 's time that you end that pathetic excuse of a relationship . jason : it 's already done , carly . it 's done . nikolas : location shoot ?

sam : why ? because jason and elizabeth have something that does n't come close to what she has with lucky . tracy : of course , it was my brilliant idea to get lulu tangled up with logan in the first place . of course , who could predict that he would actually turn out to be scott 's son ? are you hearing this ? luke 's daughter and scott 's son . it has to be stopped . of course , it 's all about the approach . i know my spitfire stepdaughter , and the more i try to keep her away , the more attracted she 's going to be -- not that she 's attracted . but give her time , and who knows ? oh , god , luke is going to kill me -- his precious daughter . oh -- and i -- i 'm helpless . if i were n't locked up in this nut farm , i could be more proactive . i could think of ways to -- to manipulate logan . alan , i 've been going on and on -- alan ! -- and i have not heard one single piece of irritatingly cerent insight . what is wrong with you ? alan : i do n't know -- i do n't feel myself . i -- i mean , i do n't feel like i 'm really here . tracy : what do you want ? scott : thank you . i 'm just checking that you 're where you belong . tracy : well , why do n't you make yourself useful , instead of lurking , and keep your son away from my stepdaughter ? scott : again -- not my son . tracy : oh , scott , even you ca n't be that dense . unless you want them together . scott : why would i want that ? tracy : because as soon as luke finds out that your son is messing with his daughter , he 'll come back in a flash . lulu : ok . let me try and understand this . you guys are taking me prisoner ? edward : well , why do n't you look at the bright side . there are worse places to be confined -- you can ask tracy . lulu : and you 're onboard with this ? monica : it 's for your own good . lulu : i hate it when people say that . really , who died and lefyou guys judge and jury of what 's right for me ? and in case it has slipped your minds , i am 18 -- an adult free to do what i want no matter who disapproves . edward : listen , as long as your father remains at large with laura , and your stepmother is in the loony bin talking to her dead brother , you have been entrusted to our care and discretion . monica : translation -- that means you need supervision . edward : mm - hmm . some rules to live by . alice : like fresh air and exercise . edward : do n't you see , dear ? you -- you are our last chance to get this whole parenting thing right . alice : mm - hmm . monica : as i 'm sure you know , we 've made a few mistakes in that area . hopefully , we 've learned from them . lulu : so i 'm some kind of experiment ? edward : no , you are a beautiful , intelligent , and all - too - vulnerable youngoman . alice : in other words , you 're easy pickings , sweetheart . edward : especially for a louse like logan . lulu : you do n't even know logan . monica : neither do you , lulu . edward : and we aim to keep it that way . lulu : you guys do n't give me any credit , do you ? edward : of course we did -- until you went missing and then spent the night in that reprobate 's apartment . lulu : not for the reasons that you think . monica : well , ok , then . enlighten us as to why you felt it necessary to spend the night at logan 's apartment . edward : and do n't bother telling us that you were `` just talking . `` jeez . coop : i do n't want to get in a big argument over logan , all right ? i 've got to go . maxie : you 're going to go check on him , are n't you ? coop : it 's the least i can do , do n't you think , considering i am the one who shot him ? maxie : or you just want to make sure that cody did n't frag him . coop : this is n't a joke . all right , cody is mad at the world and everyone in it . maxie : seems to me like cody is just mad at logan . coop : listen -- there is something going on with cody . i ca n't quite put my finger on it , but it 's more than posttraumatic stress . so if you see him around , just steer clear . maxie : you do n't have to worry about me . i 'm a big girl . coop : more importantly , you 're my girl , all right , and i do n't want anything to happen to you . maxie : oh , just shut up and kiss me . maxie : if you 're looking for coop , he just left . cody : i waited to talk to you . carly : that 's all you 're going to say ? jason : what do you -- what do you want me to say ? carly : details -- what happened ? jason : sam and i got to a place where we lost trust , and there was nowhere else to go from there . carly : that 's typically vague . something had to happen to push you into ending things with her . jason : it was sam 's decision , carly . carly : it was sam 's decision ? you 're stuck in prison on murder charges . not only could n't she be bothered to come visit you , she deserts you when you need her ? jason : why do you even care ? you never liked sam , you wanted us to break up , and now we have . carly : i wanted you to break up with her , ok ? that 's exactly what she deserves . whatever . it -- it 's over , and that 's all that matters . hopefully , sam will leave town so she does n't screw someone else 's life up . nikolas : i do n't understand . did jason break up with you so he could pursue elizabeth ? because i find it hard to believe that she would initiate it . sam : of course . i forgot . you must be a charter member ofhe saint elizabeth fan club . nikolas : elizabeth married lucky -- it was her choice -- and they have a family together . sam : no , what they have together is a lie . and for the record , i ended things with jason . nikolas : all right , fine . i was just trying to get where you 're driving this . sam : oh , nikolas , you 're a pretty observant guy . there has been a cycle that 's been put into place here . you see , elizabeth always seems to get herself into these rilous situations , and there jason is to ride in in his trusty suit of armor . you see , this is where jason lives , and elizabeth knows that , and she exploited it every single chance that she got . lucky seemed to be pretty clueless about it -- until last night . nikolas : what happened last night ? sam : oh , he came here and he was wondering why his wife has a pull toward jason . nikolas : you did n't tell him that they slept together ? sam : no , of course not , because i am not going to be the bad guy . nikolas : well , could you please just bottom - line this for me ? sam : all right . bottom line is i did n't say absolutely anything about the two of them sleeping together . but your brother is not stupid , he 's going to figure it out , and i 'm just asking you to be prepared . nikolas : ok , thanks for the warning . but i have to ask why you suddenly care what happens to my brother . sam : well , i know what it feels like when the truth comes out , and i know that lucky is going to be hit with this like a ton of bricks . and i think it 'll be nice if he has someone on his side , because i also know what it feels like when you don't .

[ logan grimaces ] coop : well , you 've got to admit cody 's got good reason to hate you . logan : i thought you were the one person who understood . you know what can happen out there . besides , i thought you believed me when i told you it was an accident . coop : yeah , well , i do , all right ? but whether you meant for it to happen or not , it did . so , one way or another , you 're going to have to deal with the person that you damaged most . maxie : logan came into town looking for his deadbeat dad and he got reacquainted with coop . cody : coop got elected logan 's official crutch when we were in iraq . logan talks big , but he 's lacking when it comes to follow through . maxie : oh , if that 's true , he definitely picked the wrong line of work . cody : what does he do ? maxie : he weaseled his way into sonny corinthos ' organization -- means he 's a criminal . cody : and coop 's going to become a cop ? does logan not see the conflict of interest there ? maxie : logan only cares about what logan wants . i told coop not to trust him , but he wo n't listen to me . cody : and how does the blond fit in ? maxie : lulu spencer , the local tramp ? cody : ah -- sounds personal . what did she do -- snake your guy ? maxie : well , `` my guy `` at the time was her brother , and lulu could n't wait to start badmouthing me , calling me a home - wrecking slut . ok , fine -- her brother was married at the time , but so was my sister . that did n't stop miss lulu from getting pregnant and blowing my sister 's relationship to hell . cody : lulu has a kid ? maxie : no , of course not . a child would cramp lulu 's style -- she had an abortion -- but do n't even get me started . as far as i 'm concerned , lulu and logan deserve each other . cody : nobody deserves that coward . maxie : so , was it logan that got you hooked ? cody : what ? maxie : well , you 're obviously addicted to something . cody : do n't judge me , little girl . you were n't there . you do n't know what it was like . maxie : chill out , ok ? i 'm the last person to judge anyone . i just volunteer at a hospital , so i know the signs . ok , so i told you everything i know about logan . you should return the favor and tell me what awful thing he did in iraq . cody : i might , but you 'll have to give me something first . tracy : what better way to flush luke out than to let his daughter fall prey to your son ? scott : first of all , the kid 's not my son . and if he was my son , do you think luke 's nonexistent parental urges would tear him away from laura ? look how long you 've been rotting in here and he has n't looked back -- has he ? tracy : luke knows i can take care of myself , lulu ca n't -- and do n't ever underestimate his love of his daughter . and thanks to you and your probably illegal courtroom machinations , lulu is now more vulnerable than ever . and while we 're on the subject -- for all your professed love of laura , you do n't give a damn about her daughter . scott : i do give a damn about her daughter . tracy : then prove it -- keep your son from ruining her life ! scott : you know , tracy , you got to be the most selfish girl on this planet . tracy : what ? scott : this cockamamie plan of yours to back me into the corner -- that 's all you care about . you -- you do n't care about your own stepdaughter . it -- it 's just about you . it 's always just about you , tracy -- you . tracy : oh , you are the most thickheaded fool ! orderly : are you about to have another fit ? tracy : i 'm going to show you a fit if you do n't get me dr . winters in here right now . go ! will you say something ? alan : i think i know what 's wrong . tracy : beyond being dead ? alan : i 'm fading -- because of you . logan : cody got lulu curious about what happened overseas . i would n't answer any of her questions , and you ca n't , either . here . coop : you are lulu are starting , what , a friendship ? maybe she 's got the right to know . logan : no -- no way , coop . not a word . i do n't want you scaring the girl off . coop : it 's your call , but i think you ought to reconsider . lulu 's got a lot of people that care about her -- like your boss and jason morgan . if she ends up hurt because of you , you wo n't have to worry about cody anymore -- you 'll already be dead . [ knock on door ] lulu : logan , it 's lulu . can i come in ? elizabeth : i do n't even know where you 're getting your ideas , but i love your brother . why would i leave him for jason ? nikolas : elizabeth , we both know what happened last summer , ok ? and do n't worry , i have no intentions of telling lucky that you slept with jason , and i 'm certainly not passing judgment . i know that being married to one person does n't preclude falling in love with another . i know because it happened to me . i had myon because of my affair with courtney . i just -- i really regret the way i hurt emily and myself , and i just do n't want to see that happen to you and lucky . jason : i do n't need you to warn me about elizabeth . carly : somebody has to . all she has to do is bat her eyes and play the helpless act , and you jump in and you try and save her . and that 's all it ever is , ok -- you saving her perfect little life , she can run back to her safe place with lucky . well , i guess you 're right . i do n't have to worry about elizabeth . she 's never going to be the woman for you , ok , never . she 's too mousy and she 's pathetic . she 's never going to be able to make a commitment to you , and then she 'd have to drag those kids along , so you should be just fine . jason : ok , what is it exactly that you want , why are you here ? carly : i 'm here to see you . jason : no . you 're here because there 's something going on in your personal life -- that 's the only time you start digging into my personal life -- so what 's the problem ? tell me . carly : i miss my husband . sam : what are you doing here ? amelia : we need to go over ideas for the location shoot -- it 's coming up sooner than you think . sam : i wish you would 've called first , because i have a full day of packing if i want to get into my new apartment . amelia : `` new apartment `` ? sam : yeah , what did you expect , for me to go camp out on set ? amelia : i assumed you 'd be moving in with your mother . sam : whatever . look , i will call when i 'm finished -- maybe i 'll stop by if i have time . amelia : it would really help production if you could speed up this celebration of independence . you could always ask lucky to help . sam : and what 's that supposed to mean ? amelia : i know how you think . you could n't have a child with jason , so you did n't flinch when you saw his son with elizabeth being stolen . now you think elizabeth has stolen your man . how long before you decide to steal hers ? amelia : what , no self - righteous indignation , no heartfelt denials ? i just accused you of callously going after another woman 's husband -- then again , that 's old territory for you -- except lucky 's far from rich . that could end up being problematic for him once you decide you 're bored . sam : oh , no . no , that 's fin because , look , i 'm making plenty of money , and lucky is a good catch . actually , he 's hot and loyal , and he does carry a gun , and he deserves somebody way better in his life , since elizabeth basically trashed him for jason . amelia : and you 're somebody way better ? sam : compared to elizabeth , yeah , damn straight i am . it 's not like lucky has n't strayed before . why would n't he want to take a walk on the wild side ? amelia : it 's almost frightening the way you manage to justify anything you do . sam : you are so transparent , i ca n't believe it 's taken me this long to see through you ! that comment was designed to goad me ! well , guess what -- it 's not going to work . i do n't want lucky , and even if i did , i would n't have any qualm about going after him . i do n't care what you or anyone else thinks . now , get out ! amelia : hmm . have it your way . sam : you better get used to that . amelia : mm - hmm . carly : i asked alexis to help me trick jerry into telling us where he sent jax . jason : ok , see , i should n't have to tell you this over and over again -- stay away from jerry . do n't try to trick him , it 's only going to set him off . carly : ok . jason : say it like you mean it -- better yet , just mean it for once . carly : i promise i wo n't do anything dangerous or reckless . jason : ok , that 's convincing . carly : you have to understand the position i 'm in , ok ? jerry sent jax out of town so he would n't be caught in the middle of the animosity between us , so giving jerry the cold shoulder is n't going to work . and besides , he could prove to be useful and helpful . jason : and how -- how is that ? carly : jerry might be able to get you out of here . jason : what , did he tell you that ? carly : no , i made it a condition of liking him . jason : ok , there is nothing that jerry can do for me . if he 's telling you any different , he 's working you . carly : you do n't know that . he has all kinds of seedy connections with gangsters , russians , government officials . you do n't know what he can do . jason : fine , no plans , carly , not with jerry , ok ? carly : i 'm not listening to you , i 'm not . i would make a deal with the devil if it meant getting you out of here and back home where you belong . i 'm going to do what it takes to get you out of here , and you know what ? there 's nothing you can do about it -- guard ? guard ? jason : ok , but you always tell me that you want to help me , but you never listen to what i say , carly . carly : you will be thanking me , ok , you 'll be thanking me . jason : no , i 'm not going to be thanking you for a -- carly ! elizabeth : i 'm not going to lie and say things are wonderful between me and lucky , and it 's not just a reaction to the strain of jake 's kidnapping . i 'm pretty upset with him for arresting jason for -- for his heinous crime of rescuing our son . nikolas : he jumped bail . elizabeth : oh , come on , nikolas . nikolas : i 'm not saying i would 've reacted the same way as lucky , but you know how he is about his job . he takes it pretty seriously . elizabeth : i do n't think he was motivated by his sense of duty , i think it was jealousy . nikolas : i can kind of understand that . i mean , jason seems to always be around in critical moments , elizabeth , when lucky ca n't be . i think it 's -- it 's understandable to be a little off balance . elizabeth : i love him . i love our family . but i 'm not going to abandon jason . nikolas : what if lucky ca n't accept that and asks you to choose ? [ phone rings ] nikolas : nikolas cassadine . lainey : hi , it 's lainey . are you back in town ? nikolas : yes , have been for a couple of days . lainey : could you possibly come up to shadybrook right away ? tracy quartermaine has been asking -- well , make that demanding to see you . lulu : you do n't have to cover with me . logan : what are you talking about ? lulu : i know that i walked in on a fight . logan : oh , what are you -- you know what ? you 're right . coop and i -- we were arguing -- about you . lulu : uh - huh ? and how does that happen ? logan : well , coop was being coop . you know , he was wanting to make sure that i was treating you like a gentleman , and i told him that i was trying my best -- how am i doing ? lulu : hmm -- you need to work on your technique . logan : maybe your standards are too high . food -- thank you . lulu : yeah , well , you need to eat . logan : i appreciate it , but i really did n't expect to see you back here . lulu : yeah , i got into a fight with my stepfamily . logan : ooh . so i 'm an act of defiance ? lulu : mostly . logan : what 's the rest ? lulu : i want to know what happened with you and cody in iraq . alan : i definitely know what 's wrong now -- i am fading . tracy : you 've been very quiet . what are you trying to pull ? alan : nothing -- that 's just it . i do n't have the drive to give you a hard time or to make jokes at your expense . tracy : why not ? alan : well , i 'm going to give you my best guess -- because i think that you are doing something that i , in my official capacity as your conscience , approve of . tracy : i 'm slipping . alan : do n't minimize it . you 're trying to help lulu , and you 're doing it for no other reason except you do n't want her to get hurt . now , you 're making my job easier and i appreciate it , but you know what i 'm going to do , tracy ? i 'm going to take the rest of the day off . tracy : no , you 've got it all wrong . the only reason that i 'm helping lulu is to win points with luke , because he 's off god knows where with the sainted laura , and i need all the points i can get . so , you see , i 'm still as self- obsessed as ever . alan : do n't kid a kidder . tracy , i 'm proud of you . tracy : ew ! alan : oh , you never could take a compliment . however , i do think that you will say , think , or do something that is so unconscionable that i will be back here in a new york minute . but for right now , i need a break . tracy : i do n't want you to take a break . alan : tracy , do n't be afraid of your own company . just remember , you have nothing to fear but fear itself . [ tracy laughs ] alan : lookt dillon . tracy : oh , thank you , alan , for bringing that up . and while we 're on the subject , i would like to mention that he has not so much as written his poor , incarcerated mother a post card . picked up the phone -- ha ! forget it . not a sound , not a word -- nothing . you do n't think i pushed him away for good , do you ? alan ? alan ? jason : what do you want ? amelia : since you 've been forced to conduct your personal life long distance , i thought you might like an update . sam gave lucky quite an earful last night . jason : she did n't tell him i 'm jake 's father ? amelia : no , not yet , but sam 's hurt , angrier than i have ever seen her . i think that it 's only a matter of time before she rips elizabeth 's life apart with the truth , so i suggest you make a preemptive strike . claim your child and turn sam in for aiding and abetting his kidnapping . carly : good -- you 're packing . sam : good -- now you 've seen it . get out . carly : i 'm not going anywhere . i know how you operate , i 'm going to make sure you do n't take anything that does n't belong to you . god knows you have n't paid for one thing since you darkened jason 's doorstep . so i 'm going to sit right here , and you can give me the key when you leave . sam : i am not going to take this , not one minute longer . today we 're taking the fresh taste of oscar mayer ahhh ... we 're all adults here . let 's talk about the list . tracy : all right , alan , this is n't funny -- show yourself ! alan , if this means i 'm getting better -- which does n't mean that there was anything wrong with me in the first place -- i do n't think i like it , i feel rejected . ok , fine -- sit out there in the ethers , make yourself comfortable , but not too comfortable , because the first reprehensible thing i do , i will get you back . nikolas : tracy ? am i interrupting ? tracy : no . ahem . i 'm not delusional . and you need to pay very close attention to what i 'm about to say . lulu 's in trouble . logan : well , i ca n't explain to you what it was like over there , it was war . war . you know , you -- you live in your clothes . you 're thirsty all the time , but drinking water does n't help because it 's always warm . you 're too tired to cook , and evything you swallow tastes like sand anyways . you do n't need to speak the language because all the communication you need is in the eyes of the people that you see , in their faces . you know , they first hope that you 're going to bring a better way of life to them , and then complete and total fear as they 're running for their lives , carrying their wounded or dead kids in their arms . you pass by burnt bodies and the smell -- it gets inside your head , it does n't ever leave . you relive the horrors of the day night after night after night . there does n't -- there does n't ever seem to be an end to it , you know , and sometimes there is n't even when you get back home . war changes you , lulu , at the core , fundamentally forever , you -- you know ? because it ai n't like you can go sit on the shrink 's ouch and talk it out . that 's why i -- i ca n't be mad at a guy like cody . man , the guy snapped , and it could 've easily been me -- and maybe it still is . you know , maybe it -- maybe the craziness is just kind of waiting inside of me , you know , to jump and take me down when i least expect it . lulu : i 'm -- i 'm sorry i brought it up . i 'm -- i 'm sorry you went through it . i did n't know . i -- i do n't think anyone could . jason : does n't your show get tanked if sam goes to jail ? amelia : maybe it 's for the best . it might be time for sam to finally have to pay for something she 's done . jason : you know what ? just take your agenda somewhere else . ok , i 'm not -- i 'm not turning sam in , i 'm not saying anything about jake , and if it happens to come out some other way -- like from you -- it 's not going to be good . amelia : i could almo take that as a threat . i 'm surprised . i thought you were smart , but you are a fool to be sitting here cooling your ts in prison , falling all over yourself to protect sam after the way she has used you . sam : you know what , carly ? something good has actually come out of breaking up with jason -- i can finally tell you exactly how i feel about you . you walk around this town all high and mighty like you own it , but you know what ? you have never even deserved one single man you ever had . sonny finally got wise to you and dumped your sorry butt . and one day , jason will get fed up with all the pathetic self - entitled intrusions into his life and do the same . i 'm actually surprised that jax has n't run screaming yet , but you know what ? the relationship is still new , give it some time . but you know what ? maybe -- maybe he is fed up with you . has it ever occurred to you that your husband could be staying away on purpose ? carly : you know what ? as usual , you have the facts all wrong . you 're the one leaving here a loser . you lost jax , you lost sonny , and now you lost jason , but they 're all three still in my life . you 're the footnote . so hit the road , sam . do n't come back . sam : i do n't have a problem with that . but before i go -- [ next_on ] tracy : disaster is looming . stop your sister . sonny : we got business to take care of . max : logan hayes ? ric : you 're being subpoenaed to testify against jason morgan . carly : i 'm going to make you pay . jason : leave sam alone . amelia : or what ? | sam gives nikolas the heads up that elizabeth might possibly leave lucky for jason . he then goes to see liz and make sure her marriage is safe . carly visits jason and gives jason a lecture on staying away from elizabeth . when scott visits tracy , she asks him to keep his son , logan , away from lulu . again , he denies paternity , and she realizes that he might want them to stay together to bait luke into returning . the quartermaines decide to restrict lulu to the manor . however , she gets two hours free after blackmailing alice . logan makes cooper promise to not tell lulu about his history with cody while maxie gives cody her take on all the local gossip related to lulu . amelia wonders how long it 'll take sam to try and steal lucky . tracy 's unselfishness in trying to help lulu makes alan , aka , her conscience , able to fade and take a break . as a result , nikolas answers her summons for a visit in time to hear her begging alan to return . she warns him that lulu is in trouble . carly stands over sam while she packs . when sam gets enough of her catty , but true , remarks , she slaps carly . amelia visits jason to urge him to claim his son and reveal sam 's role in the kidnapping . | <s>[INST] monica : hello . lulu : hi -- bye , i got to run . edward : no , no , no . you 're not leaving this house with that pilfered food . my hard - earned money is not available to help that no - good logan hayes . lulu : not a problem . oh -- ok , ok , what 's going on ? monica : lulu , you are forbidden to see logan hayes . lulu : really ? monica : yeah . lulu : and -- and how do you plan on enforcing that arbitrary rule ? alice : well , until further notice , you 're under house arrest . maxie : are you ok ? you 've been kind of quiet . coop : i guess being the ping - pong ball between sonny and d.a . lansing is starting to get to me . maxie : well , you seemed to be handling it ok before logan got shot . is that why you 're upset -- because that loser took a bullet ? oh -- ok , reality check . logan knew you were joining the force , and he knew working for sonny would put you guys on opposite sides , but he did n't care . coop : you 're saying logan deserves to be shot because he was going after a job ? maxie : no , i 'm saying logan deserves to face the consequences of his actions . and you should n't get upset over an inevitable confrontation that just happened sooner instead of later . coop : yeah , well , easy to say . maxie : i know you consider logan a friend , and i know you guys went through some hellish stuff in iraq , but have you asked yourself -- if the roles were reversed , would logan be as concerned about you as you are about him ? because if you 're honest , you wo n't like the answer . carly : you look tired . jason : yeah , well , i have n't been getting much sleep lately . carly : i ca n't stand the thought of you being in here , away from everyone you love . i really ca n't stand the thought that your pathetic excuse for a rlfriend has n't even been here once to see you . jason : actually , carly , sam -- carly : i 'm sorry , ok , but has she lifted one finger to support you , jason , has she ? has she been here at all since you got the ok that you could have visitors ? no , of course not . it 's time that you end that pathetic excuse of a relationship . jason : it 's already done , carly . it 's done . nikolas : location shoot ? sam : uh , moving out . jason and i are finished , but that 's not why i called you over here . you need to make yourself available for lucky . nikolas : why ? what 's going on ? sam : well , your brother is in for a big fall , i think . jason 's back on the market , and -- i do n't know -- elizabeth might decide that she wants to go shopping . nikolas : if you 're implying that -- that elizabeth would leave lucky for jason , i think that 's a little crazy . sam : do n't be so sure . nikolas : why -- why would she ? sam : why ? because jason and elizabeth have something that does n't come close to what she has with lucky . tracy : of course , it was my brilliant idea to get lulu tangled up with logan in the first place . of course , who could predict that he would actually turn out to be scott 's son ? are you hearing this ? luke 's daughter and scott 's son . it has to be stopped . of course , it 's all about the approach . i know my spitfire stepdaughter , and the more i try to keep her away , the more attracted she 's going to be -- not that she 's attracted . but give her time , and who knows ? oh , god , luke is going to kill me -- his precious daughter . oh -- and i -- i 'm helpless . if i were n't locked up in this nut farm , i could be more proactive . i could think of ways to -- to manipulate logan . alan , i 've been going on and on -- alan ! -- and i have not heard one single piece of irritatingly cerent insight . what is wrong with you ? alan : i do n't know -- i do n't feel myself . i -- i mean , i do n't feel like i 'm really here . tracy : what do you want ? scott : thank you . i 'm just checking that you 're where you belong . tracy : well , why do n't you make yourself useful , instead of lurking , and keep your son away from my stepdaughter ? scott : again -- not my son . tracy : oh , scott , even you ca n't be that dense . unless you want them together . scott : why would i want that ? tracy : because as soon as luke finds out that your son is messing with his daughter , he 'll come back in a flash . lulu : ok . let me try and understand this . you guys are taking me prisoner ? edward : well , why do n't you look at the bright side . there are worse places to be confined -- you can ask tracy . lulu : and you 're onboard with this ? monica : it 's for your own good . lulu : i hate it when people say that . really , who died and lefyou guys judge and jury of what 's right for me ? and in case it has slipped your minds , i am 18 -- an adult free to do what i want no matter who disapproves . edward : listen , as long as your father remains at large with laura , and your stepmother is in the loony bin talking to her dead brother , you have been entrusted to our care and discretion . monica : translation -- that means you need supervision . edward : mm - hmm . some rules to live by . alice : like fresh air and exercise . edward : do n't you see , dear ? you -- you are our last chance to get this whole parenting thing right . alice : mm - hmm . monica : as i 'm sure you know , we 've made a few mistakes in that area . hopefully , we 've learned from them . lulu : so i 'm some kind of experiment ? edward : no , you are a beautiful , intelligent , and all - too - vulnerable youngoman . alice : in other words , you 're easy pickings , sweetheart . edward : especially for a louse like logan . lulu : you do n't even know logan . monica : neither do you , lulu . edward : and we aim to keep it that way . lulu : you guys do n't give me any credit , do you ? edward : of course we did -- until you went missing and then spent the night in that reprobate 's apartment . lulu : not for the reasons that you think . monica : well , ok , then . enlighten us as to why you felt it necessary to spend the night at logan 's apartment . edward : and do n't bother telling us that you were `` just talking . `` jeez . coop : i do n't want to get in a big argument over logan , all right ? i 've got to go . maxie : you 're going to go check on him , are n't you ? coop : it 's the least i can do , do n't you think , considering i am the one who shot him ? maxie : or you just want to make sure that cody did n't frag him . coop : this is n't a joke . all right , cody is mad at the world and everyone in it . maxie : seems to me like cody is just mad at logan . coop : listen -- there is something going on with cody . i ca n't quite put my finger on it , but it 's more than posttraumatic stress . so if you see him around , just steer clear . maxie : you do n't have to worry about me . i 'm a big girl . coop : more importantly , you 're my girl , all right , and i do n't want anything to happen to you . maxie : oh , just shut up and kiss me . maxie : if you 're looking for coop , he just left . cody : i waited to talk to you . carly : that 's all you 're going to say ? jason : what do you -- what do you want me to say ? carly : details -- what happened ? jason : sam and i got to a place where we lost trust , and there was nowhere else to go from there . carly : that 's typically vague . something had to happen to push you into ending things with her . jason : it was sam 's decision , carly . carly : it was sam 's decision ? you 're stuck in prison on murder charges . not only could n't she be bothered to come visit you , she deserts you when you need her ? jason : why do you even care ? you never liked sam , you wanted us to break up , and now we have . carly : i wanted you to break up with her , ok ? that 's exactly what she deserves . whatever . it -- it 's over , and that 's all that matters . hopefully , sam will leave town so she does n't screw someone else 's life up . nikolas : i do n't understand . did jason break up with you so he could pursue elizabeth ? because i find it hard to believe that she would initiate it . sam : of course . i forgot . you must be a charter member ofhe saint elizabeth fan club . nikolas : elizabeth married lucky -- it was her choice -- and they have a family together . sam : no , what they have together is a lie . and for the record , i ended things with jason . nikolas : all right , fine . i was just trying to get where you 're driving this . sam : oh , nikolas , you 're a pretty observant guy . there has been a cycle that 's been put into place here . you see , elizabeth always seems to get herself into these rilous situations , and there jason is to ride in in his trusty suit of armor . you see , this is where jason lives , and elizabeth knows that , and she exploited it every single chance that she got . lucky seemed to be pretty clueless about it -- until last night . nikolas : what happened last night ? sam : oh , he came here and he was wondering why his wife has a pull toward jason . nikolas : you did n't tell him that they slept together ? sam : no , of course not , because i am not going to be the bad guy . nikolas : well , could you please just bottom - line this for me ? sam : all right . bottom line is i did n't say absolutely anything about the two of them sleeping together . but your brother is not stupid , he 's going to figure it out , and i 'm just asking you to be prepared . nikolas : ok , thanks for the warning . but i have to ask why you suddenly care what happens to my brother . sam : well , i know what it feels like when the truth comes out , and i know that lucky is going to be hit with this like a ton of bricks . and i think it 'll be nice if he has someone on his side , because i also know what it feels like when you don't . ( man ) resolve presents : new multi - fabric cleaner . carly : i knew sam was going to turn on you , i knew she was going to do this . jason : i got to take responsibility for my part . carly : when are you going to stop protecting that woman ? she 's never been good enough for you , ok ? she came into this town a user , and it 's only gotten worse -- first jax , then sonny , now you . jason , she 's sponged off you for years . then you try to let her go so she wo n't get shot again or -- or killed , and what does she do ? she runs off and she sleeps with ric -- your worst enemy and her mother 's husband -- jason : ok , carly , that 's enough , please ? carly : no , i 'm not done . because then she worms her way back into your life -- how , i do n't know -- to do what , to make you feel guilty for every crappy thing that 's ever happened to her ? and then for her grand finale , she dumps you exactly when she could actually come in handy ? i say good riddance . she 's never going to find a man like you ever again , and when that fact finally seeps into her tiny little brain , it 's going to be too late . you 're going to move on to a wonderful woman who is deserving -- no . jason , no . jason : do n't -- you know what ? do n't even start with me . carly : you are the walking wounded , ok , and i 'm your best friend , so i 'm going to tell you this -- put up a wall . as soon as elizabeth finds out , she is going to come after you like her life depends on it . nikolas : hey . elizabeth : hey . nikolas : you -- you got a minute ? elizabeth : yeah . is spencer ok ? you look worried . nikolas : no , no , no , he 's -- he 's great -- best kid that ever lived . elizabeth : spoken like a true dad . nikolas : jake 's a close second , though . elizabeth : oh , thanks . nikolas : and i remember all the gratitude and joy i felt when we got spencer back from colleen , so i know what it means to you to have jake back . elizabeth : yeah , thanks to jason . nikolas : yeah , can -- can i talk to you over here ? elizabeth : sure . nikolas : ahem . ok , first off , i just -- i -- i owe you and lucky an apology . i was so convinced that jerry was the one that kidnapped jake , i just -- i -- i took off without even thinking . elizabeth : no , that 's ok . you had good reason to suspect him . nikolas : it really did n't have anything to do with reason . i just let my hatred cloud my judgment , and i should 've been here to support you and lucky when you were going through what i 'm sure was hell . elizabeth : it was -- it was pretty rough . i mean , for a minute , i did n't even think like we were ever going to make it through intact , but we managed . nikolas : things are good now ? elizabeth : i mean , they 're not perfect . but jake is home , that 's all that matters . the rest will fall into place . nikolas : right . and , i mean , you 're obviously grateful to jason , right ? elizabeth : oh , yeah , of course . nikolas : grateful enough to leave lucky for him ? lulu : logan just needed a friend . edward : mm - hmm -- all night . nica : why , because he was drunk ? alice : or was he o.d . 'ing on drugs ? lulu : no ! god ! you guys think the worst automatically about everyone . edward : that 's because , my dear , we have done the worst , and we 've had the worst done to us , and we are trying to spare you that fate . lulu : noyou 're blowing this way out of proportion -- i do n't even like logan that much . edward : oh , really ? well , until you can be a little more convincing , you are restricted to this house and these grounds . lulu : well , i have things to do , errands to run . monica : ok , fine . we 'll drive you wherever you want to go . edward : alice ? you 're in charge . if lulu gets past you , there will be very serious consequences to pay . alice : yes , sir . lulu : oh , i can not believe this . alice : well , it 's the quartermaine way of saying they care . lulu : yeah -- about themselves . edward and monica are just paranoid that something bad will happen to me , and then my dad or tracy is going to go off . alice : be honest with yourself . do you really think mr . luke wants you hanging out with scotty baldwin 's little boy ? lulu : i do n't even know log -- ok , that 's beside the point . the point is nobody should be policing me around . you 're not going to go along with this , are you ? alice : well , you heard my orders . lulu : and you started caring when ? alice : look , i care about your father , and i know this is what he 'd want me to do . lulu : how about a trade ? alice : what do you got ? lulu : well , if you give me a get - out - of - jail - free card , i wo n't tell anyone what you do in the boathouse . [ alice drops purse ] alice : you know about that ? lulu : well , so does dillon , but he 's gone . you know , i 'd really hate to bust you , but if you force my hand -- alice : that 's blackmail . that 's -- lulu : think of it as a fair exchange . alice : ok -- you got two hours . logan : thanks a lot , pal -- first , you shoot me , and then you forget to warn me that psycho cody is in town . coop : hey , we are in `` his `` town , all right , and i shot to wound you . it could 've been a lot worse -- one of the other cops could 've made you or shot to kill . logan : hey , i could still end up dead , all right ? the guy spooked me , man . cody 's got a major screw loose , dude . coop : yeah , well , i tried talking him into leaving you alone . logan : that 'll work . [ logan grimaces ] coop : well , you 've got to admit cody 's got good reason to hate you . logan : i thought you were the one person who understood . you know what can happen out there . besides , i thought you believed me when i told you it was an accident . coop : yeah , well , i do , all right ? but whether you meant for it to happen or not , it did . so , one way or another , you 're going to have to deal with the person that you damaged most . maxie : logan came into town looking for his deadbeat dad and he got reacquainted with coop . cody : coop got elected logan 's official crutch when we were in iraq . logan talks big , but he 's lacking when it comes to follow through . maxie : oh , if that 's true , he definitely picked the wrong line of work . cody : what does he do ? maxie : he weaseled his way into sonny corinthos ' organization -- means he 's a criminal . cody : and coop 's going to become a cop ? does logan not see the conflict of interest there ? maxie : logan only cares about what logan wants . i told coop not to trust him , but he wo n't listen to me . cody : and how does the blond fit in ? maxie : lulu spencer , the local tramp ? cody : ah -- sounds personal . what did she do -- snake your guy ? maxie : well , `` my guy `` at the time was her brother , and lulu could n't wait to start badmouthing me , calling me a home - wrecking slut . ok , fine -- her brother was married at the time , but so was my sister . that did n't stop miss lulu from getting pregnant and blowing my sister 's relationship to hell . cody : lulu has a kid ? maxie : no , of course not . a child would cramp lulu 's style -- she had an abortion -- but do n't even get me started . as far as i 'm concerned , lulu and logan deserve each other . cody : nobody deserves that coward . maxie : so , was it logan that got you hooked ? cody : what ? maxie : well , you 're obviously addicted to something . cody : do n't judge me , little girl . you were n't there . you do n't know what it was like . maxie : chill out , ok ? i 'm the last person to judge anyone . i just volunteer at a hospital , so i know the signs . ok , so i told you everything i know about logan . you should return the favor and tell me what awful thing he did in iraq . cody : i might , but you 'll have to give me something first . tracy : what better way to flush luke out than to let his daughter fall prey to your son ? scott : first of all , the kid 's not my son . and if he was my son , do you think luke 's nonexistent parental urges would tear him away from laura ? look how long you 've been rotting in here and he has n't looked back -- has he ? tracy : luke knows i can take care of myself , lulu ca n't -- and do n't ever underestimate his love of his daughter . and thanks to you and your probably illegal courtroom machinations , lulu is now more vulnerable than ever . and while we 're on the subject -- for all your professed love of laura , you do n't give a damn about her daughter . scott : i do give a damn about her daughter . tracy : then prove it -- keep your son from ruining her life ! scott : you know , tracy , you got to be the most selfish girl on this planet . tracy : what ? scott : this cockamamie plan of yours to back me into the corner -- that 's all you care about . you -- you do n't care about your own stepdaughter . it -- it 's just about you . it 's always just about you , tracy -- you . tracy : oh , you are the most thickheaded fool ! orderly : are you about to have another fit ? tracy : i 'm going to show you a fit if you do n't get me dr . winters in here right now . go ! will you say something ? alan : i think i know what 's wrong . tracy : beyond being dead ? alan : i 'm fading -- because of you . logan : cody got lulu curious about what happened overseas . i would n't answer any of her questions , and you ca n't , either . here . coop : you are lulu are starting , what , a friendship ? maybe she 's got the right to know . logan : no -- no way , coop . not a word . i do n't want you scaring the girl off . coop : it 's your call , but i think you ought to reconsider . lulu 's got a lot of people that care about her -- like your boss and jason morgan . if she ends up hurt because of you , you wo n't have to worry about cody anymore -- you 'll already be dead . [ knock on door ] lulu : logan , it 's lulu . can i come in ? elizabeth : i do n't even know where you 're getting your ideas , but i love your brother . why would i leave him for jason ? nikolas : elizabeth , we both know what happened last summer , ok ? and do n't worry , i have no intentions of telling lucky that you slept with jason , and i 'm certainly not passing judgment . i know that being married to one person does n't preclude falling in love with another . i know because it happened to me . i had myon because of my affair with courtney . i just -- i really regret the way i hurt emily and myself , and i just do n't want to see that happen to you and lucky . jason : i do n't need you to warn me about elizabeth . carly : somebody has to . all she has to do is bat her eyes and play the helpless act , and you jump in and you try and save her . and that 's all it ever is , ok -- you saving her perfect little life , she can run back to her safe place with lucky . well , i guess you 're right . i do n't have to worry about elizabeth . she 's never going to be the woman for you , ok , never . she 's too mousy and she 's pathetic . she 's never going to be able to make a commitment to you , and then she 'd have to drag those kids along , so you should be just fine . jason : ok , what is it exactly that you want , why are you here ? carly : i 'm here to see you . jason : no . you 're here because there 's something going on in your personal life -- that 's the only time you start digging into my personal life -- so what 's the problem ? tell me . carly : i miss my husband . sam : what are you doing here ? amelia : we need to go over ideas for the location shoot -- it 's coming up sooner than you think . sam : i wish you would 've called first , because i have a full day of packing if i want to get into my new apartment . amelia : `` new apartment `` ? sam : yeah , what did you expect , for me to go camp out on set ? amelia : i assumed you 'd be moving in with your mother . sam : whatever . look , i will call when i 'm finished -- maybe i 'll stop by if i have time . amelia : it would really help production if you could speed up this celebration of independence . you could always ask lucky to help . sam : and what 's that supposed to mean ? amelia : i know how you think . you could n't have a child with jason , so you did n't flinch when you saw his son with elizabeth being stolen . now you think elizabeth has stolen your man . how long before you decide to steal hers ? amelia : what , no self - righteous indignation , no heartfelt denials ? i just accused you of callously going after another woman 's husband -- then again , that 's old territory for you -- except lucky 's far from rich . that could end up being problematic for him once you decide you 're bored . sam : oh , no . no , that 's fin because , look , i 'm making plenty of money , and lucky is a good catch . actually , he 's hot and loyal , and he does carry a gun , and he deserves somebody way better in his life , since elizabeth basically trashed him for jason . amelia : and you 're somebody way better ? sam : compared to elizabeth , yeah , damn straight i am . it 's not like lucky has n't strayed before . why would n't he want to take a walk on the wild side ? amelia : it 's almost frightening the way you manage to justify anything you do . sam : you are so transparent , i ca n't believe it 's taken me this long to see through you ! that comment was designed to goad me ! well , guess what -- it 's not going to work . i do n't want lucky , and even if i did , i would n't have any qualm about going after him . i do n't care what you or anyone else thinks . now , get out ! amelia : hmm . have it your way . sam : you better get used to that . amelia : mm - hmm . carly : i asked alexis to help me trick jerry into telling us where he sent jax . jason : ok , see , i should n't have to tell you this over and over again -- stay away from jerry . do n't try to trick him , it 's only going to set him off . carly : ok . jason : say it like you mean it -- better yet , just mean it for once . carly : i promise i wo n't do anything dangerous or reckless . jason : ok , that 's convincing . carly : you have to understand the position i 'm in , ok ? jerry sent jax out of town so he would n't be caught in the middle of the animosity between us , so giving jerry the cold shoulder is n't going to work . and besides , he could prove to be useful and helpful . jason : and how -- how is that ? carly : jerry might be able to get you out of here . jason : what , did he tell you that ? carly : no , i made it a condition of liking him . jason : ok , there is nothing that jerry can do for me . if he 's telling you any different , he 's working you . carly : you do n't know that . he has all kinds of seedy connections with gangsters , russians , government officials . you do n't know what he can do . jason : fine , no plans , carly , not with jerry , ok ? carly : i 'm not listening to you , i 'm not . i would make a deal with the devil if it meant getting you out of here and back home where you belong . i 'm going to do what it takes to get you out of here , and you know what ? there 's nothing you can do about it -- guard ? guard ? jason : ok , but you always tell me that you want to help me , but you never listen to what i say , carly . carly : you will be thanking me , ok , you 'll be thanking me . jason : no , i 'm not going to be thanking you for a -- carly ! elizabeth : i 'm not going to lie and say things are wonderful between me and lucky , and it 's not just a reaction to the strain of jake 's kidnapping . i 'm pretty upset with him for arresting jason for -- for his heinous crime of rescuing our son . nikolas : he jumped bail . elizabeth : oh , come on , nikolas . nikolas : i 'm not saying i would 've reacted the same way as lucky , but you know how he is about his job . he takes it pretty seriously . elizabeth : i do n't think he was motivated by his sense of duty , i think it was jealousy . nikolas : i can kind of understand that . i mean , jason seems to always be around in critical moments , elizabeth , when lucky ca n't be . i think it 's -- it 's understandable to be a little off balance . elizabeth : i love him . i love our family . but i 'm not going to abandon jason . nikolas : what if lucky ca n't accept that and asks you to choose ?

alan ? alan ? jason : what do you want ? amelia : since you 've been forced to conduct your personal life long distance , i thought you might like an update . sam gave lucky quite an earful last night . jason : she did n't tell him i 'm jake 's father ? amelia : no , not yet , but sam 's hurt , angrier than i have ever seen her . i think that it 's only a matter of time before she rips elizabeth 's life apart with the truth , so i suggest you make a preemptive strike . claim your child and turn sam in for aiding and abetting his kidnapping . carly : good -- you 're packing . sam : good -- now you 've seen it . get out . carly : i 'm not going anywhere . i know how you operate , i 'm going to make sure you do n't take anything that does n't belong to you . god knows you have n't paid for one thing since you darkened jason 's doorstep . so i 'm going to sit right here , and you can give me the key when you leave . sam : i am not going to take this , not one minute longer . today we 're taking the fresh taste of oscar mayer ahhh ... we 're all adults here . let 's talk about the list . tracy : all right , alan , this is n't funny -- show yourself ! alan , if this means i 'm getting better -- which does n't mean that there was anything wrong with me in the first place -- i do n't think i like it , i feel rejected . ok , fine -- sit out there in the ethers , make yourself comfortable , but not too comfortable , because the first reprehensible thing i do , i will get you back . nikolas : tracy ?

[ scene_break ] justus : what 'd you find out ? ric : well , faith 's injuries are n't life - threatening , but she has been transferred to the hospital under guard . sonny : probably exactly what she wanted . justus : are you implying faith knifed herself ? sonny : faith rosco is a card - carrying psychopath who 's very capable of inflicting a flesh wound if it keeps her out of g.p . and gets her transferred someplace where a chance to escape . justus : i 'm going to get out of here , make sure my client does n't meet with another unfortunate accident while she 's being hospitalized . alexis : i have no personal fondness for faith , but she is a human being . do you have any ability to comprehend that at all ? sonny : when someone targets me and my family ? absolutely not . alexis : you 're a monster . sonny : congratulations , ric . your work 's finally paying off . she 's starting to spout your philosophy . ric : alexis thinks for herself . it might 've taken her a while , but she finally recognized you for the thug that you are .

[ scene_break ] ric : so , what , did you think that alexis was so blinded by passion with you still that she was -- she never regained her senses ? huh ? that you 'd be able to just string her along like you do every other woman in your life until you no longer have any use for her ? sonny : is that why you 're pursuing alexis -- because i took her to bed ? ric : no . sonny : you could n't steal carly or my children , so you decided to settle for some sex i had one night ? that 's pretty pathetic even for you , ric . well , hey , you know what ? let me give you some advice . let me give you some advice here . unless you really want alexis , leave it alone , because you 're not going to get a reaction out of me . i 'm not going to lash out in some rage or lose my cool and start attacking you . i 'm not going to get so stupid that i get so distracted , you know , that i make some fatal business error that gives you the opportunity to send me to prison . alexis and i are over . i have no feelings for her at all , ric . ric : yeah , well , she does n't have any feelings for you , either -- at least not the warm and fuzzy kind . who can blame her ? you 're a threat to everything that alexis cares about . sonny : since when ? [ scene_break ] courtney : i thought to myself , he 's not going to get very far without his passport , so i thoughtfully and graciously called the airport and asked them to hold your plane until i could get it to you . imagine my surprise , jax , when they told me that you not only had n't filed a flight plan , but your plane was in the hangar for maintenance . jax : you asked them to hold my plane for me ? courtney : oh , come on -- jax : that 's very sweet of you . courtney : will you just admit that this whole thing was a ploy to get me into bed ? jax : you 're right . you 're right , i 'm busted . i just -- i wanted to help things along . courtney : help ? help . right . jax : what was i supposed to do ? i mean , i , you know , begged you to -- to take the money so we can end this stupid bet , but you refused to . courtney : do you know what the most annoying thing is about you ? jax : no . what ? what ? what is it ? courtney : how you can do something completely self - serving and still claim that you had noble motives . jax : you know , what 's really annoying about you is that you can not stand up for what you want . now , i know damn well that you were n't faking those kisses ; that you want me as much as i want you , but you 're afraid -- you 're just afraid to act , are n't you ? you 're a little chicken . courtney : what ? no . uh - uh . sorry . jax : yeah . chicken . courtney : no , your vanity wo n't let you admit to the simple fact that i am immune to your overrated charm , jax . i am . i am . and -- and i refuse to call off the bet because i 'm in no danger of losing , ok ? jax : mm - hmm . courtney : my foundation will get your $ 10 million , and after the bet 's over , maybe -- just maybe , if you beg -- i 'll consider going out with you . jax : by the time i win the bet , you will be begging me to make love to you . [ scene_break ] lorenzo : you 're pretty slick yourself . you 've managed to spring the perfect trap . lois : the word `` trap `` implies nefarious intent . unlike certain people , i am upfront about my goals and straightforward in my methods . lorenzo : `` certain people `` being me . you mind sharing this evil agenda of how you 're convinced that i 'm working ? lois : well , i ca n't give you specifics because it 's your plan , not mine . but i certainly know when i 'm on the receiving end of a con job . lorenzo : you 're overthinking it , lois . you 're a beautiful , fascinating woman whose company i happen to enjoy . it does n't get any more diabolical or any deeper than that . lois : there you go again -- purposely taking our conversation off track with compliments of my looks and implications that i am different from any other woman on the planet . but you 're not altogether wrong , you know . lorenzo : mm - hmm . lois : because unlike people you 're probably used to , i 'm not buying what you 're selling . there 's an issue on the table in the form of your niece 's contract . either sign it , or go home and tell her she 's out of the group and , therefore , no longer welcome at l & b . lorenzo : done . lois : great . well , that concludes our business for today . alice will see you out . lorenzo : oh , i 'll leave , but you wo n't be rid of me . you just made sure of that . lois : come again ? lorenzo : sage is a minor . as her legal guardian , i 'll have to visit l & b to supervise her activities -- often . which means that you and i will be seeing more of each other than ever .

's murder is going to get your daughter back , then you are sadly mistaken . sonny : reese was assigned to the kidnapping . her job was to find the kids . carly : she 's an f.b.i . agent . you 're on opposite sides of the law , but you decided to trust her . sonny : we needed her , carly . i gave her confidential information about my business and my contacts so she would have a list of suspects . now , at any point , she could have used that information against me , and she didn't . i guess the case , you know , was getting a little personal for her . carly : i noticed . sonny : ok , yeah , well , diyou also know that reese lost a child of her own and she 's determined to save mine ? carly : so when michael , morgan , and kristina were back , her job was to build a case against you , right ? sonny : ok . withholding the evidence that she had on me could have cost reese her job , ok ? she told durant that the information was not conclusive . carly : because she started caring about you . sonny : she cares about michael , carly . now , she got through to michael when no one else could . i mean , you got to admit tha she knows something about this trauma stuff -- what to say , what not to say . i mean , you know -- carly : he still needs his family . sonny : we are here , but she 's been able to calm him down when we couldn't . that 's not about her , you know , her job or some personal agenda . she 's putting aside her own pain to help my son . that matters to me . carly : so you 're really getting serious about her , are n't you ? sonny : you know what ? what does that have to do with anything ? carly : no . it doesn't . you 're not a naive man , sonny . if you trust her , then i 'll accept that . sonny : you did n't before . carly : our marriage is over . we 're both moving on , doing different things , you know ? i 've got my life , you 've got yours . you and i are the parents of two beautiful kids . that 's it . reese : i am not going to fall for sonny . we come from completely different lives . i do n't want to get involved with him . it just -- it would n't work . sam : ok , but this is not about what you want , ok ?

she 's probably down in the wine cellar right now picking out some priceless bottle of wine so she can celebrate the occasion . my father 's not dead , helena . do you hear me ? he 's not dead ! you know what ? my father 's going to be dancing on your grave while you 're rotting six feet under ! elizabeth : ok , this is n't going to solve anything . you can not fight vionce with violence . the spencer - cassadine feud has gone on long enoug and it 's got to stop ! lucky : no , no , helena has to pay for what she did . elizabeth : ok , fine , we 'll just figure out another way . i mean , the woman has committed a crime . we 'll just have her arrested . lucky : oh , and now when has helena ever been convicted for whatever she 's done in life ? elizabeth : ok , look , i do n't have the answers , but i do know that seeking revenge is n't it , lucky . do you remember how you and your brother vowed to end the cycle of hatred between your families ? lucky , your father is lying in a hospital bed right now because of the spencer - cassadine feud . and that 's exactly where you should be -- in the hospital with your dad , because he needs you . lucky : ok , all right . no , wait -- thank you , i 'm sorry . you know what ? you 're right . you 're right , elizabeth . elizabeth : now can we get out of here , because this place gives me the creeps when it 's empty . come on , let 's go . lucky : all right . nikolas : you knew me for years before you even met connor . you just -- you need to remember that and listen to your heart , that 's all . emily : you 're trying to make sense of this , nikolas , but you ca n't , ok ? i can't . it 's too twisted . nikolas : hey , look , we just -- we need to start somewhere , emily . emily : i 'm sorry -- i ca n't do this with you . whenever i look at you , i see connor . whenever you touch me , it 's connor 's hands i feel , and when you look at me , you can see that i see connor ! nikolas : no , no , no , it 's not true . that 's not true . emily : you ca n't help it . nikolas : listen , you 're my wife . i love you , forever . nothing will ever change that . you 've been a victim of a crime , and you just -- you just need to heal , ok ?

skye : oh , yeah , that , or i was temporarily insane . luke : hmm . skye : oh , look , i know why we 're doing it . we 're flushing helena out of hiding , we 're getting nikolas out of prison , but must it all be accomplished with a kevlar vest , phony blood , and a bogus gunshot wound ? luke : this particular plot demanded a certain dramatic flair . skye : oh , for god 's sake luke . oh , luke , luke ! tracy : oh , please , it 's only me . of all the convoluted schemes . skye : please , we 've been over that . luke : look , you two , helena is not going to show up and risk getting caught or , hopefully , killed without providing her with some incentive . tracy : helena believes that i siphoned off her money . she 's not the kind of woman to laugh it off when somebody crosses her . correction -- she 'll kill you first , then she 'll laugh that off . luke : would you calm down and relax . tracy : oh , you 're right . i do get edgy when i 'm waiting for my throat to be cut ! luke : i 'm mber one on her hit list . she 's not coming after you until she 's sure i 'm dead . elizabeth : hey . ok , so lucky wanted me to tell you that the bait was laid and hopefully helena heard us and bought it . luke : cool . you know the plan . elizabeth : yeah , i 'll just be working at the nurses ' desk . skye : and i 'll be reading the newspaper in the waiting area . tracy : oh -- i 'll be decoding my nancy drew ring . luke : could you decode in a wheelchair and try and blend in with the geriatric patients ? tracy : that 's funny ! luke : hmm . everybody keep a lookout for a sweet , unassuming nun . skye : a nun ? luke : yeah , she 's got a perverse sense of disguise . skye : and if she decides to wear something entirely different ? luke : well , then i 'd watch for a tall , thin woman in $ 1,200 shoes or an effete man with nail polish and a magnum . skye : yeah , luke . this plan is absolutely foolproof . luke : make yourself useful . tracy : oh , i 'm not going anywhere . helena would just as soon shoot me as look at me . luke : not until i 'm dead . i told you . tracy : you told me that i could n't survive without you as my bodyguard , so now 's your chance to walk the walk . protect me , already . elizabeth : no sign of helena . lucky : yeah . here comes emily . emily : hey . elizabeth : hey . so did you see nikolas , and did you tell him ? emily : yeah . lucky : ahem . hey . emily : hey , what 's going on ? does this have anything to do with luke being shot ? lucky : no , no , no , dad 's ok . he was wearing a bulletproof vest when he got shot . elizabeth : we 're setting a trap for helena . lucky : yeah , we 're hoping that she 's going to show up and finish the job . ric : we have substantial enough evidence against carly without michael 's testimony . alexis : the last thing that i want to do is put that little boy through amy more pain . but maybe testifying will help him . ric : against his own mother ? alexis : i saw him . he 's terrified . that 's a horrible secret for a little boy to keep . judge hunter : d.a . lansing , please come in . john : i understand ric called the judge to get a subpoena in the a.j . quartermaine murder case ? alexis : word travels fast . john : who 's it for ? alexis : michael . he was in the room when carly killed a.j . he 's an eyewitness . john : oh , my god . alexis : sonny 's keeping him in the compound . john : yeah , i 'm sure . i 'm sure he 's doing whatever he can to protect him . michael 's been through enough already . alexis : s , he has . i thought this was the only way , but now i 'm not so sure . john : are you kidding ? this is perfect . sonny : ahem . there 's something i have to say . reese : oh , sonny , if i 've gotten too personal -- sonny : no , no , no , no -- reese : or crossed the line in any way . sonny : no , just -- i just want to thank you . reese : i 'm just doing my job . sonny : no , you 've done more than that , you know . i got to be honest with you . i -- i thought you were here to take me down , you know ? and you 've pretty much proven that that 's not the case , ok ? and you went above and beyond , you know , as far as the kids and trying to find the kids and all that stuff , and even after found out michael was alive , you could have walked away , case closed , right ? reese : michael is traumatized . sonny : yeah , but that 's what i 'm trying to say . you care . reese : i do . sonny : you know how to handle him , ok ? what to say , what to do . i thank god you 're here because i 've got to tell you you 've been the only one who 's been able to connect with my son . and , you know , i mean , i do n't really think he could have gotten through this without you . and that means a lot to me . reese : thank you . sonny : so , you know -- your life is all about the decisions you make . john : look , we have to keep moving forward . alexis : by having your own grandson incriminate his own mother ? john : michael is going to have to testify against carly in a courtroom full of people . sonny will never let that happen . that is why this is perfect . alexis : and you 're sure of that ? you 're sure that he 's going to confess to spare carly and michael ? john : yeah . you 'd better hope for the same thing because if sonny does confess , you retain custody of kristina . huh ? alexis : you make it sound awfully simple . john : well , you got to admit , it 's effective . sonny will do whatever he can to protect his children , even if it means going to prison . alexis : he 'll do anything he can but change his lifestyle . so if he goes to prison , my daughter 's safe , so that 's what i want . that 's why i 'm justifying this . i do n't think i can do it . john : you 're not going -- you do n't have to fabricate any evidence . michael has already said what he saw . the court knows about it . all we have to do is sit right back , let the events unfold . sonny walks into that courtroom , confesses , and we both get our daughters back . jason : hey . carly : hi . jason : i was just putting michael to bed . you want to go up and say good night ? carly : yeah . thanks . jason : yeah ? you -- are you ok ? carly : not really . jason : michael -- he 's going to let you back in . it 's just going to take some time . carly : no , i know . it 's not that . jason : ok , then what is it ? carly : sonny and i were talking about reese , and he admitted that he has feelings for her . i do n't know , i guess i just thought it was one of those passing things , you know , whenever sonny throws on the charm and the woman buys it , and 20 minutes later he loses interest . jason : well , you know , this could turn out to be the same thing . carly : no , jason , you should 've heard him . he was going on and on about how great reese is , how she 's really connected with michael . i 'm just so glad he stopped before telling me how hot she is . jason : look , look , sonny went through hell when michael was kidnapped . carly : we all did . jason : yeah , you 're right . you 're right , we all did . but to sonny , reese helped him through . carly : god , please do n't tell -- i do n't want you to be telling this to me , too . jason : ok , tell me you did n't tell him that it was wrong to trust her . carly : no , i did n't , i didn't . i said all the right things . i did . i said that , you know , we 're divorced and we 're moving on , and i -- i just want him to be happy . jason : are n't you happy ? carly : i do n't know what is wrong with me , jason . i wanted the divorce , i agreed to it , but i just can't . i do n't know why it hurts so much to hear him talk about caring for another woman . jason : well , because sonny and you have loved each other for a long time . it just does n't disappear overnight . carly : no , i know . the divorce is just paper . you know , i mean , we 've just -- we 've shared so many things and we have so many memories and we 're in each other 's lives , and it 's not just because he 's the father of my children . i just -- i do n't want to lose that . you know , i do n't -- you know , i 'm just selfish . i mean , that 's really the problem here . jason : well , sometimes you are , carly . carly : uh -- well , i did n't really need for you to agree with me . jason : well , listen . it 's ok . it 's ok to have mixed feelings about sonny moving on . carly : i 'm moving on . it 's just i do n't want sonny to move on . i do n't want him to be happy with reese or any other woman . i want reese to turn out to be a liar and a snake so that sonny will come to me and say , well , `` what the hell was i thinking ? `` i just -- i want him to realize that i -- that no one can take my place . jason : is that what you think about sonny ? that no one will ever take his place ? carly : god , i hope not . you know what ? i just do n't want to dwell on this anymore because i got to really focuon the person that really needs me . my son . i just -- elizabeth : hey . tracy : you owe me , luke spencer . you are the one that got me into this hideous mess . luke : where 's your sense of adventure ? tracy : it does n't include knives and guns ! luke : tracy , calm down . just relax and trust me . tracy : ooh ! trust you ? now i know i 'm in trouble . luke : i thought you were the quartermaine with all the spunk . you 're gutsy , you 're strong , you 're capable of pulling off the most nefarious scheme . tracy : i 'd like to live to scheme again . you , on the other hand , love to flirt with death . you are an adrenaline junkie . luke : and proud of it . when i get my hands on helena , i 'm going to snap her neck . tracy : bravo . luke : but i 'll tell you , i hate to admit this , but i 'm going to miss her when she 's gone . tracy : have you been stealing medication off the nurse 's cart again ? luke : she gets me all fired up . she makes me feel alive . tracy : you need a new hobby . luke : no , what i 'm going to need is a new playmate , someone to spar with . what about you , spunky ? u want to give me a whirl ? tracy : do n't even think about it . luke : wrong room , doctor . helena : killing you is really getting to be a chore . jason : just try and get some sleep , ok ? i 'll come over tomorrow and we 'll toss a ball around . carly : you 're settling into your life now , with all the things that you like to do and the people that you love . and i 'm going to be with you here , sweetheart . because the truth is going to come out . i did n't kill a.j . , and i would never do anything that would take me away from you . sonny : ok , good . max : ok . hi . sam : sonny . look , i 'm probably out of line with this , so please feel free to tell me to stop , shut up , whatever , that i 'm wrong , whenever you feel like it , ok ? sonny : what 's wrong ? sam : it reese , ok ? sonny : right . sam : in my opinion , i think that she has gone way past being an f.b.i . agent . it 's not just a job to her anymore , all right ? you matter to her , michael matters to her , and i do n't think she would do anything to take you away from your son . and i do n't think that she is looking for a reason to send you to prison anymore . sonny : sam , for the record , it is none of your business , all right ? but you did n't have to tell me because i already know . helena : i 'm here to reclaim the money you stole from me . tracy : that luke stole from you to -- to get you out of hiding ! helena : details are irrelevant . tracy : he did it without my cooperation . in fact , i warned him not to do it ! helena : too bad he did n't listen . tracy : look , i do n't want the money . helena : take your hand off the gun , luke . luke : what gun ? helena : no , do n't play me for a fool . you 'd never remain silent this long unless you were trying to trick me . now stop trying to nurse your grievances and put both hands up where i can see them . luke : no problem . helena : call the bank . ask them to wire a transfer to this account . emily : oh , my god . helena : yes , my dear . it is i , the granny from hell . [ gun cocks ] helena : do n't even think it , luke . luke : what happened to my crack team of lookouts ? helena : they 're following a woman dressed as a nun . really , luke , did you think i would be that predictable ? tracy : can we just get this over with ? helena : i 've changed my mind . i want cash . tracy : oh , come on , helena ! where am i going to get that kind of cash on a moment 's -- notice . helena : well , take your time . nikolas ' unsuitable bride will accompany me for insurance . she 'll be released when i get the money . luke : let her go . shs got nothing to do with this . tracy will get your cash . helena : did n't i tell you not to play me for a fool ? now , we 're going to walk out of this hospital . tracy : helena , luke is right . i will get the cash . just give me 24 hours . give me 12 hours . helena : oh , you are so tiresome . i 'll be in touch . tracy : ooh ! guard : hey . guard : stop ! helena : keep moving . though , it 'd give me a distinct pleasure to use this gun . out of the elevator , or i 'll shoot her . elizabeth : oh , god . reese : is michael still awake ? jason : i put him to bed . reese : is it too late to say good night ? carly : he 's already asleep . ric : sonny , i 'm sorry . this is one of the hardest things i 've ever had to do . i do n't liket , but it 's my job . sonny : just tell me what it is , ric . ric : it 's a subpoena calling michael to testify . reese : for what ? ric : we have reason to believe that michael saw carly kill a.j .

's murder is going to get your daughter back , then you are sadly mistaken . sonny : reese was assigned to the kidnapping . her job was to find the kids . carly : she 's an f.b.i . agent . you 're on opposite sides of the law , but you decided to trust her . sonny : we needed her , carly . i gave her confidential information about my business and my contacts so she would have a list of suspects . now , at any point , she could have used that information against me , and she didn't . i guess the case , you know , was getting a little personal for her . carly : i noticed . sonny : ok , yeah , well , diyou also know that reese lost a child of her own and she 's determined to save mine ? carly : so when michael , morgan , and kristina were back , her job was to build a case against you , right ? sonny : ok . withholding the evidence that she had on me could have cost reese her job , ok ? she told durant that the information was not conclusive . carly : because she started caring about you . sonny : she cares about michael , carly . now , she got through to michael when no one else could . i mean , you got to admit tha she knows something about this trauma stuff -- what to say , what not to say . i mean , you know -- carly : he still needs his family . sonny : we are here , but she 's been able to calm him down when we couldn't . that 's not about her , you know , her job or some personal agenda . she 's putting aside her own pain to help my son . that matters to me . carly : so you 're really getting serious about her , are n't you ? sonny : you know what ? what does that have to do with anything ? carly : no . it doesn't . you 're not a naive man , sonny . if you trust her , then i 'll accept that . sonny : you did n't before . carly : our marriage is over . we 're both moving on , doing different things , you know ?

elizabeth : ok , look , i do n't have the answers , but i do know that seeking revenge is n't it , lucky . do you remember how you and your brother vowed to end the cycle of hatred between your families ?

luke : well , then i 'd watch for a tall , thin woman in $ 1,200 shoes or an effete man with nail polish and a magnum . skye : yeah , luke . this plan is absolutely foolproof . luke : make yourself useful . tracy : oh , i 'm not going anywhere . helena would just as soon shoot me as look at me . luke : not until i 'm dead . i told you . tracy : you told me that i could n't survive without you as my bodyguard , so now 's your chance to walk the walk . protect me , already . elizabeth : no sign of helena . lucky : yeah . here comes emily . emily : hey . elizabeth : hey . so did you see nikolas , and did you tell him ? emily : yeah . lucky : ahem . hey . emily : hey , what 's going on ? does this have anything to do with luke being shot ? lucky : no , no , no , dad 's ok . he was wearing a bulletproof vest when he got shot . elizabeth : we 're setting a trap for helena . lucky : yeah , we 're hoping that she 's going to show up and finish the job . ric : we have substantial enough evidence against carly without michael 's testimony . alexis : the last thing that i want to do is put that little boy through amy more pain . but maybe testifying will help him . ric : against his own mother ? alexis : i saw him . he 's terrified . that 's a horrible secret for a little boy to keep . judge hunter : d.a . lansing , please come in . john : i understand ric called the judge to get a subpoena in the a.j . quartermaine murder case ? alexis : word travels fast . john : who 's it for ? alexis : michael . he was in the room when carly killed a.j . he 's an eyewitness . john : oh , my god . alexis : sonny 's keeping him in the compound . john : yeah , i 'm sure . i 'm sure he 's doing whatever he can to protect him . michael 's been through enough already . alexis : s , he has . i thought this was the only way , but now i 'm not so sure . john : are you kidding ? this is perfect . sonny : ahem . there 's something i have to say . reese : oh , sonny , if i 've gotten too personal -- sonny : no , no , no , no -- reese : or crossed the line in any way . sonny : no , just -- i just want to thank you . reese : i 'm just doing my job . sonny : no , you 've done more than that , you know . i got to be honest with you . i -- i thought you were here to take me down , you know ? and you 've pretty much proven that that 's not the case , ok ? and you went above and beyond , you know , as far as the kids and trying to find the kids and all that stuff , and even after found out michael was alive , you could have walked away , case closed , right ? reese : michael is traumatized . sonny : yeah , but that 's what i 'm trying to say . you care . reese : i do . sonny : you know how to handle him , ok ? what to say , what to do . i thank god you 're here because i 've got to tell you you 've been the only one who 's been able to connect with my son . and , you know , i mean , i do n't really think he could have gotten through this without you . and that means a lot to me . reese : thank you . sonny : so , you know -- your life is all about the decisions you make . john : look , we have to keep moving forward . alexis : by having your own grandson incriminate his own mother ? john : michael is going to have to testify against carly in a courtroom full of people . sonny will never let that happen . that is why this is perfect . alexis : and you 're sure of that ? you 're sure that he 's going to confess to spare carly and michael ? john : yeah . you 'd better hope for the same thing because if sonny does confess , you retain custody of kristina . huh ? alexis : you make it sound awfully simple . john : well , you got to admit , it 's effective . sonny will do whatever he can to protect his children , even if it means going to prison . alexis : he 'll do anything he can but change his lifestyle . so if he goes to prison , my daughter 's safe , so that 's what i want . that 's why i 'm justifying this . i do n't think i can do it . john : you 're not going -- you do n't have to fabricate any evidence . michael has already said what he saw . the court knows about it . all we have to do is sit right back , let the events unfold . sonny walks into that courtroom , confesses , and we both get our daughters back . jason : hey . carly : hi . jason : i was just putting michael to bed . you want to go up and say good night ? carly : yeah . thanks . jason : yeah ? you -- are you ok ? carly : not really . jason : michael -- he 's going to let you back in . it 's just going to take some time . carly : no , i know . it 's not that . jason : ok , then what is it ? carly : sonny and i were talking about reese , and he admitted that he has feelings for her . i do n't know , i guess i just thought it was one of those passing things , you know , whenever sonny throws on the charm and the woman buys it , and 20 minutes later he loses interest . jason : well , you know , this could turn out to be the same thing . carly : no , jason , you should 've heard him . he was going on and on about how great reese is , how she 's really connected with michael . i 'm just so glad he stopped before telling me how hot she is . jason : look , look , sonny went through hell when michael was kidnapped . carly : we all did . jason : yeah , you 're right . you 're right , we all did . but to sonny , reese helped him through . carly : god , please do n't tell -- i do n't want you to be telling this to me , too . jason : ok , tell me you did n't tell him that it was wrong to trust her . carly : no , i did n't , i didn't . i said all the right things . i did . i said that , you know , we 're divorced and we 're moving on , and i -- i just want him to be happy . jason : are n't you happy ? carly : i do n't know what is wrong with me , jason . i wanted the divorce , i agreed to it , but i just can't . i do n't know why it hurts so much to hear him talk about caring for another woman . jason : well , because sonny and you have loved each other for a long time . it just does n't disappear overnight . carly : no , i know . the divorce is just paper . you know , i mean , we 've just -- we 've shared so many things and we have so many memories and we 're in each other 's lives , and it 's not just because he 's the father of my children . i just -- i do n't want to lose that . you know , i do n't -- you know , i 'm just selfish . i mean , that 's really the problem here . jason : well , sometimes you are , carly . carly : uh -- well , i did n't really need for you to agree with me . jason : well , listen . it 's ok . it 's ok to have mixed feelings about sonny moving on . carly : i 'm moving on . it 's just i do n't want sonny to move on . i do n't want him to be happy with reese or any other woman . i want reese to turn out to be a liar and a snake so that sonny will come to me and say , well , `` what the hell was i thinking ? `` i just -- i want him to realize that i -- that no one can take my place . jason : is that what you think about sonny ? that no one will ever take his place ? carly : god , i hope not . you know what ? i just do n't want to dwell on this anymore because i got to really focuon the person that really needs me . my son . i just -- elizabeth : hey . tracy : you owe me , luke spencer . you are the one that got me into this hideous mess . luke : where 's your sense of adventure ? tracy : it does n't include knives and guns ! luke : tracy , calm down . just relax and trust me . tracy : ooh ! trust you ? now i know i 'm in trouble . luke : i thought you were the quartermaine with all the spunk . you 're gutsy , you 're strong , you 're capable of pulling off the most nefarious scheme . tracy : i 'd like to live to scheme again . you , on the other hand , love to flirt with death . you are an adrenaline junkie . luke : and proud of it . when i get my hands on helena , i 'm going to snap her neck . tracy : bravo . luke : but i 'll tell you , i hate to admit this , but i 'm going to miss her when she 's gone . tracy : have you been stealing medication off the nurse 's cart again ? luke : she gets me all fired up . she makes me feel alive . tracy : you need a new hobby . luke : no , what i 'm going to need is a new playmate , someone to spar with . what about you , spunky ? u want to give me a whirl ? tracy : do n't even think about it . luke : wrong room , doctor . helena : killing you is really getting to be a chore . jason : just try and get some sleep , ok ? i 'll come over tomorrow and we 'll toss a ball around . carly : you 're settling into your life now , with all the things that you like to do and the people that you love . and i 'm going to be with you here , sweetheart . because the truth is going to come out . i did n't kill a.j . , and i would never do anything that would take me away from you . sonny : ok , good . max : ok . hi . sam : sonny . look , i 'm probably out of line with this , so please feel free to tell me to stop , shut up , whatever , that i 'm wrong , whenever you feel like it , ok ? sonny : what 's wrong ? sam : it reese , ok ? sonny : right . sam : in my opinion , i think that she has gone way past being an f.b.i . agent . it 's not just a job to her anymore , all right ? you matter to her , michael matters to her , and i do n't think she would do anything to take you away from your son . and i do n't think that she is looking for a reason to send you to prison anymore . sonny : sam , for the record , it is none of your business , all right ? but you did n't have to tell me because i already know . helena : i 'm here to reclaim the money you stole from me . tracy : that luke stole from you to -- to get you out of hiding ! helena : details are irrelevant . tracy : he did it without my cooperation . in fact , i warned him not to do it ! helena : too bad he did n't listen . tracy : look , i do n't want the money . helena : take your hand off the gun , luke . luke : what gun ? helena : no , do n't play me for a fool . you 'd never remain silent this long unless you were trying to trick me . now stop trying to nurse your grievances and put both hands up where i can see them . luke : no problem . helena : call the bank . ask them to wire a transfer to this account . emily : oh , my god . helena : yes , my dear . it is i , the granny from hell .

[ scene_break ] lulu : you 're not helping your case by trying to turn this around on my father . in fact , it proves that you 're a liar , because i know my dad . and , yes , he has flaws and -- and he may not be a prize father , but he loved my mother more than life , more than i have ever seen or imagined another person loving someone . so if you have something specific to offer that you can back up with proof , you can shut your mouth about my dad . scott : well , that 's some impassioned speech there . lulu : yeah , well , my dad inspires love and loyalty . can you say the same ? scott : i could once . you know what ? listening to you defend the people that you love -- you remind me so much of your mother . and to hurt you -- that would be like hurting her , and i ca n't do that . lulu : like i thought , you have nothing . so do me another favor and do n't talk to me about my mother , either .

[ scene_break ] shawn d. : hon , you have no idea how bad i want to do this right now , but i - i -- it 's probably inappropriate at work . actually , i have a lot of paperwork i have to do . mimi : oh , well , i hate to burst your bubble , but that 's not really what i was shooting for . but i will take a rain check . shawn d. : okay . well , that sounds good . listen -- i am so sorry about what happened yesterday at the hospital . i - i do n't what to say . belle and i -- we were so relieved that the baby was okay , and -- mimi : you already explained . shawn d. : i know i did . i just -- i feel like i have to explain again . i should have never let things go as far as they did . you know that i 'm totally committed to you , right ? mimi : i believe you , okay ? and commitment can get you through a hell of a lot . but it does n't really mean anything if there 's no love . shawn d. : i love you . you know that , right ? mimi : i know you love me . but i 'm just afraid that you love belle more and you always will . shawn d. : hon ... you were the one for me . i would not have married you if i felt otherwise , and i hope you would n't have married me if you felt differently . all i want -- all i want -- the most important thing to me is to have a good marriage , and all we have to do is believe in each other . mimi : i trust you . i just ... absolutely do not trust belle , not after all the things that she wrote in her diary , all the things that she said to you , and now she 's pregnant with your baby . the next time she gets all emotional and throws herself at you , what are you gon na do , shawn ? shawn d. : you know , if philip had been there , she would have gone to him , but she was all alone with this news and she had nobody to lean on . i -- what i love about you ... is how different you are , and you 're spontaneous and you 're fun . mimi : i used to be those things . shawn d. : no , you still are . come here . come here . with everything that you have been through in your life and the way you are now , you inspire me . you know that , right ? mimi : you inspire me . shawn d. : i love you and i want you to be secure in our relationship , so just tell me , 'cause i 'll do it -- anything to make you feel more secure about us and our future . mimi : actually , now that you mention it ... there is something you can do .. [ scene_break ] marlena : oh , thank you . belle : so , we do n't really know how it happened . all we know is that my egg got fertilized with shawn 's sperm and mimi 's egg got fertilized with philip 's . marlena : i just find that so hard to believe . salem university has one of the finest infertility teams in the country . is dr. jaynes still in charge ? belle : yeah , he was our doctor . and the kiriakis foundation is sponsoring his research , so now philip 's suing him . marlena : but they have so many safeguards in place . it 's almost impossible for this to happen . belle : i know . you know , philip actually is saying that maybe it was n't an accident . john : what do you mean ? belle : i do n't know . maybe he thinks i did it . john : now , why would he say that ? belle : dad , he was so angry when he found out about the mix - up , that he actually asked mimi 's surrogate and me to have an abortion . i mean , i could n't do that . so then he got all angry that i would n't and he ran off and wrecked max 's race car . he could have killed himself . john : let me ask you something , baby . does philip think that you want to be pregnant with shawn 's baby ? belle : he does . i know it 's awful , but i am happy that things turned out this way . oh , what ? you know how i feel . you know how i 've always felt about shawn . john : yeah , yeah , yeah , but listen -- i thought you and philip were working this marriage out . belle : we are trying to make our marriage work . but , mom , you remember what you said to me when we were at the hospital , when claire was sick ? marlena : oh , belle , you ca n't -- you ca n't think about that . i was n't myself . i was so ill then . it was the amnesia . belle : okay , all right , well , even so , you saw how much i still love shawn , and you were right . i do love him . and i realized just how much when i found out i was pregnant with his baby . we are gon na be connected for the rest of our lives , just like you and dad when i was born . and i really think ... i really think that this is a sign that shawn and i are meant to be together . [ scene_break ] e.j . : i heard you say your contractor wo n't complete the apartment renovations . why do n't you let me help ? i 've flipped a few houses in my time . i 'd be happy to offer you some of my expertise . we would really speed things along . carrie : well , that 's very sweet of you , e.j . , but do n't you already have two full - time careers ? are n't you a little busy ? e.j . : you 've all been extremely kind to me since i came to salem , and if i can find a way to repay you , i 'm very happy to be able to . carrie : but you 're like this international celebrity . we do n't want you painting our bathroom . sami : oh , come on , carrie . he 's offering to help . you should take him up on it . lucas : yeah , will is coming back from camp soon and i 'd hate for him to be in a hotel when he starts school . e.j . : okay , well , sounds like we have a plan . lucas : i guess you just convinced me . it did n't take that much , but you convinced me . you sure you know what you 're doing , right ? e.j . : i do . lucas : okay , well , good . let 's go check out the apartment , see if you can help . e.j . : okay . lucas : thank you . we 'll be back , all right ? sami : i 'll show you all out . e.j . , thank you .

[ scene_break ] marlena : belle , i can understand how you might think that being pregnant with shawn 's child is a sign that you 're meant to be together . but it 's not . it 's a mistake . it was an accident . honey , shawn is married . he 's with somebody else now . belle : he does n't love her the way he loves me . john : baby , i know what it 's like to see the person you love with somebody else . but the fact is , shawn made it very clear to you , did n't he ? he loves mimi . his life is with her , not you . marlena : you need to listen to your father , belle . and baby or no baby .... you 've got to find some way to come to terms with this . shawn is no longer yours to love , not anymore . you have to move on . john : with a husband who loves you -- that beautiful baby little girl and another one on the way here . belle : i know . marlena : oh , belle . belle , we 're just trying to help you . belle : i know . i just -- i think the hardest part about all of this is .... i have just missed having you both here . marlena : i 'm so sorry . i 'm so sorry . belle : do n't be . it 's not your fault . it 's mine . i have made a mess of everything . but , you know , i think about the fact that you were married to roman . you had a family with him , with carrie and eric and sami , and then you and dad and brady and i -- we were a family , too , and we were happy . and i know that you 're gon na try and tell me not to do what you did , but you ca n't honestly say that it was a mistake , can you ? john : no , of course not . belle : 'cause i know you 're my parents and you 're trying to tell me what you think that i need to hear , but shawn was my high - school sweetheart . and then he broke my heart and i tried to move on with philip . but how am i supposed to do that when i am pregnant with shawn 's baby ? [ scene_break ] e.j . : actually , it 's really not that bad . i mean , the bedroom caught the worst of it 'cause that was where the fire started . lucas : the rest is mostly just smoke damage . e.j . : [ sighs ] it 's gon na take some time and a little bit of elbow grease , but i ca n't think of any reason why we could n't have you back in here by tonight . lucas : tonight ? really ? that 'd be nice . carrie : okay , i just called the building - supply company and ordered the things we 'll need . e.j . : well , good . lucas : so we 'll just get started . e.j . : yeah , no time like the present . lucas : yeah , i 'm gon na -- i 'm gon na get that light fixture in the bedroom . i 'll be back , okay ? are you gon na be all right ? carrie : yeah . um , e.j . e.j . : yes ? carrie : i have a question for you . why are you really doing this ?

[ scene_break ] marlena : belle , it is going to be difficult to know that you 're carrying shawn 's child . but that was an accident . it is n't like what happened with daddy and me . this baby was n't created out of an act of love . so you need to focus on saving your marriage to philip . belle : that 's what shawn keeps saying . [ sighs ] well , thank you for talking this out with me . it helped . marlena : i hope so . belle : i know what i need to do now , so i need to go . marlena : belle ... we love you so much . oh , honey . belle : i love you , too . and it 's so good to see you guys back together . marlena : [ laughs ] john : yes , it is . we 're always here for you , baby . call me . belle : definitely . john : bye . whoa .

[ scene_break ] e.j . : the real reason ? i 'm offering to help you because i 'm your friend . carrie : i do n't mean to sound paranoid . it 's just most people would n't go this far out of their way unless they had an ulterior motive . and you 've already rescued me once , and i do n't really know you that well , and i feel extremely indebted . e.j . : carrie , i do n't think it 's any secret that , um , i 've grown very close to your sister , and i do n't wish to see her get hurt . that 's really what this is about . whatever happened ... last night up on the roof with austin , that 's between us . it goes no further . to be quite honest , i 'd rather forget about it . and assuming this is n't gon na happen again , i do n't see any reason why samantha needs to know about it . carrie : it definitely wo n't happen again . e.j . : okay . carrie : thanks , e.j . um ... you really are a good friend and -- well , i better meet the building - supply truck downstairs . [ scene_break ] lucas : guess we 'll be needing a new light fixture . this one 's a goner . e.j . : thank god for that . it 's pretty unimaginative . lucas : yeah , well , it came with the apartment . listen , thanks for your help . i appreciate it . you 're right . it 's not gon na take that long at all , so it 's good . the sooner we get out of sami and austin 's apartment , the better . e.j . : you know , i do n't mean to pry , but , i mean , i know that you and austin are a little bit competitive in the business arena , but i thought that as brothers you guys were close . you seem ... on edge a little . lucas : well , it 's kind of complicated , you know . my relationship with my brother is a little rough around the edges , mostly because of sami . but if you do n't mind , i 'd really rather not talk about my brother . i 'm happy . i 'm with carrie now . things are really looking up , you know . despite a few setbacks , like this apartment catching on fire and lexie telling her that she might not be able to ever have children , we 're happy . we 're happy about our future . excuse me ..

[ scene_break ] lucas : right , 'cause it was so cramped . is there another reason why ? carrie : well , i lived in that apartment for a long time , you know , including the first time that i fell in love with austin . and it 's difficult being around him 24/7 . it brings up a lot of memories . lucas : i see . carrie : but ... you and i are married and we 're supposed to be on our honeymoon . we 've kind of had a rough start , you know ? but i just want to concentrate on you and our life together . lucas : that 's what i 'm talking about . carrie : [ laughs ] lucas : as soon as we get this apartment done , it 's you , me , and our honeymoon . carrie : good . [ scene_break ] sami : hey , oh , sorry , you two . i did n't mean to interrupt . well , i kind of did , actually , 'cause we have really good news . we 've decided to move up the wedding . carrie : what ? lucas : well , that 's great . that 's really great . what made you change your mind ? sami : actually , it was austin 's idea . lucas : wow , that 's great , is n't it , carrie ? carrie : yeah , it is . [ scene_break ] mimi : you sound like you still do n't want to do this . shawn d. : no , if you want me to talk to uncle mickey , i will . mimi : i do , and i do n't understand why you 're acting like it 's such a crazy idea . shawn d. : no , it 's not that . i 'm just wondering ... what it is that you 're really afraid of . mimi : what do you think i 'm afraid of ? i 'm afraid that belle 's going to try to use this baby as an excuse to wind up in your bed -- excuse me -- our bed and kick me out of it .. shawn d. : well , that 's not gon na happen . mimi : i just would feel better if we did this . shawn d. : all right , i will talk to uncle mickey . what do you want me to ask him to do for us ? because philip and belle are gon na want to have visitation . mimi : and you 're gon na want them for philip and belle 's baby . i know . shawn d. : well , they live right across the hall . we 're gon na see them every day . mimi : do you plan on living across the hall from them forever ? because i sure do n't . i mean , heck , we could wind up living in different states . shawn d. : and you would like it if that happened , would n't you ? mimi : yeah , i would , but you 'd hate it . shawn d. : could you blame me ? mimi : no , no . that 's why we need a custody arrangement in place and a visitation schedule from the beginning so we set some ground rules before we make any big decisions about the future . [ scene_break ] belle : uh , you want to tell me what 's going on here ? marlena : it is about us . john : okay . what 's wrong ? marlena : when i was away , i had a lot of time to think about us . took me some time to realize that i 'm not -- i 'm not the same strong woman that i always thought i was . john : of course you are . listen , what happened between you and alex , it was n't your fault , none of it . marlena : no , alex ... alex abused me . and i let that happen . and then there was what stefano did to me , and then tony . i always turned to you ... or roman for help , to be rescued . i leaned way too much on you . john : yeah , well , you see , that 's what love and marriage is all about . i mean , it 's partners who depend upon each other . i mean , i do the same with you . marlena : but i ca n't be strong for you unless i 'm strong for myself . i have to stand on my own two feet . john : so what are you getting at ? marlena : i need us to separate . [ scene_break ] carrie : well , i 'm really happy for you guys . but is n't it a little sudden ? i thought you wanted to have a big wedding , sami ? sami : well , i think we can have a sudden big wedding . and i already spoke to father jansen and he already has the date available that you guys requested , so we can use that , right ? austin : yeah . carrie : but you wo n't be able to send out invitations , and eric wo n't be able to be there and john and marlena and i 'm really bummed about eric , but he understands , and he 's flying all over the world . he 'll be okay with it . austin : so , i guess there 's no reason for us to wait after all . is there ?

[ scene_break ] belle : i ca n't believe you 're plotting behind my back like this . mimi : we 're not plotting anything . all i want is to have an attorney check into some kind of custody agreement , a visitation schedule , you know , for shawn to see the baby that you 're having together -- belle : yeah , i heard all of this . mimi : are n't you and philip planning to do the same thing ? belle : yeah , i guess , but do n't you think we should be discussing this together , the four of us ? mimi : i 'm sure we will , but right now , i 'm discussing it with my husband first because it 's about our marriage . and quite frankly , belle , i do n't trust you anymore , not after what happened last night . belle : well , you do n't have anything to worry about . it wo n't happen again . i 've come to say goodbye to shawn .

[ scene_break ] [ knock on door ] abby : is this a bad time ? shawn d. : um , actually , yeah . yeah , it is kind of a bad time , but that 's all right . i heard that there was some news last night . abby : you mean about my dad . shawn d. : yeah , yeah . how is he doing ? abby : well , he 's doing great . his fever broke , and lexie said he can go into remission if the drugs keep working , so ... shawn d. : that 's great . abby : yeah . shawn d. : wow , i 'm glad to hear it . what brings you down to the garage ? abby : i need a job . shawn d. : do n't tell me you want to become a race car driver , too ? abby : no , i was thinking more like office work . you know , i was here the other day with chelsea , and it looks like you need some help on filing your papers . shawn d. : i do n't know what you 're talking about . this is all exactly where it 's supposed to be . actually , this is a mess , but it 's all paperwork for the patent . abby : well , i do n't know anything about engines , but i do type 60 words a minute and i make great coffee . shawn d. : really ? that -- i 'm sold . that sounds good to me , but i have to talk to max first . um , he actually stepped out for a minute , but he 'll be back pretty soon . can you hang out ? abby : yeah , sure . hey , mimi . mimi : hi . abby : you know , i 'm gon na go wait in the garage . [ scene_break ] shawn d. : hey . mimi : hey . shawn d. : i was n't expecting to see you down here this morning . what brings you here ? mimi : i woke up and you were gone . shawn d. : yeah , well , i had to get to work . i -- i -- [ scene_break ] austin : samantha , have you found that prospectus yet ? sami : no , i 'm still looking . and i know it was sitting right here last night before carrie and lucas moved in with us . austin : so what now ? they 're responsible for papers missing ? they slept on the desk , inside drawers ? sami : no , no , of course not , but they are the competition . austin : they would n't steal from us . sami : that 's debatable . austin : be honest . when you say our competition , this is more about carrie than it is about lucas . it 's more about her being under the same roof with me . sami : no , actually , it 's not , austin . it just upsets me that you invited them to move in with us without checking with me first . we 're supposed to be making these decisions together , remember ? austin : i know . i know , i 'm sorry . sami : i would have said yes . austin : no , i understand . i understand . everything 's a little tight right now . we ca n't kick them out . you know , their apartment is still in bad shape because of the fire . we just have to learn to , i do n't know , find a way to cohabit a little while longer . [ scene_break ] lucas : not to worry , all right ? guys , we 're moving out . sami : [ clears throat ] how much did you overhear ? we were just talking between us . we did n't mean for you to hear what we said . lucas : it 's fine . it has nothing to do with what you said . it 's time for us to go . carrie : yeah . [ scene_break ] like sands through the hourglass , so are the days of our lives . [ scene_break ] austin : you do n't have to leave . lucas : i think it 's for the best . sami : where will you stay ? lucas : well , we 're not too sure . we 'll have to find a hotel or something .. austin : well , come on . that 's ridiculous . we told you , you could stay here as long you needed a place . lucas : yeah , i know . i know , but the contractor 's giving us the runaround . you know , he 's taking forever . he does n't return our calls a lot , and he has n't painted yet . we have n't seen samples . it 's gon na take forever . he said originally it was gon na take a couple days , but it 's probably gon na be a couple weeks . we ca n't impose anymore . austin : that 's okay . carrie : it 's not okay . we heard you , austin . we 're getting on your nerves . sami : hold everything . that is not what i said , carrie . carrie : well , you know , this is a small apartment , and it 's your office space , too . it 's too much . it 's not like we 're poor . we 'll find a place , and you 've both been extremely generous . do n't worry about us . lucas : thank you . [ knock on door ] e.j . : pardon me . sorry , the door was open . i could n't help hearing about your dilemma and i have a proposal -- one i think you might like . [ scene_break ] marlena : [ laughs ] belle : so , how are you ? marlena : gosh , i 'm -- i 'm -- i 'm doing better . john : yeah , we 're fine . the question is , how are you ? belle : well , a lot 's changed since you 've been gone . john : claire is n't sick , is she ? belle : no , she 's fine . we 're all fine , healthwise . well , philip had an accident , but , um ... marlena : what is it , belle ? belle : i 'm pregnant . john : oh , that 's great , baby . marlena : wow . wow , philip must be thrilled , huh ? belle : yeah , well , that 's the thing . um , philip 's not the father . shawn is . [ scene_break ] shawn d. : hon , you have no idea how bad i want to do this right now , but i - i -- it 's probably inappropriate at work . actually , i have a lot of paperwork i have to do . mimi : oh , well , i hate to burst your bubble , but that 's not really what i was shooting for . but i will take a rain check . shawn d. : okay . well , that sounds good . listen -- i am so sorry about what happened yesterday at the hospital . i - i do n't what to say . belle and i -- we were so relieved that the baby was okay , and -- mimi : you already explained . shawn d. : i know i did . i just -- i feel like i have to explain again . i should have never let things go as far as they did . you know that i 'm totally committed to you , right ? mimi : i believe you , okay ? and commitment can get you through a hell of a lot . but it does n't really mean anything if there 's no love . shawn d. : i love you . you know that , right ? mimi : i know you love me . but i 'm just afraid that you love belle more and you always will . shawn d. : hon ... you were the one for me . i would not have married you if i felt otherwise , and i hope you would n't have married me if you felt differently . all i want -- all i want -- the most important thing to me is to have a good marriage , and all we have to do is believe in each other . mimi : i trust you . i just ... absolutely do not trust belle , not after all the things that she wrote in her diary , all the things that she said to you , and now she 's pregnant with your baby . the next time she gets all emotional and throws herself at you , what are you gon na do , shawn ? shawn d. : you know , if philip had been there , she would have gone to him , but she was all alone with this news and she had nobody to lean on . i -- what i love about you ... is how different you are , and you 're spontaneous and you 're fun . mimi : i used to be those things . shawn d. : no , you still are . come here . come here . with everything that you have been through in your life and the way you are now , you inspire me . you know that , right ? mimi : you inspire me . shawn d. : i love you and i want you to be secure in our relationship , so just tell me , 'cause i 'll do it -- anything to make you feel more secure about us and our future . mimi : actually , now that you mention it ... there is something you can do .. [ scene_break ] marlena : oh , thank you . belle : so , we do n't really know how it happened . all we know is that my egg got fertilized with shawn 's sperm and mimi 's egg got fertilized with philip 's . marlena : i just find that so hard to believe . salem university has one of the finest infertility teams in the country . is dr. jaynes still in charge ? belle : yeah , he was our doctor . and the kiriakis foundation is sponsoring his research , so now philip 's suing him . marlena : but they have so many safeguards in place . it 's almost impossible for this to happen . belle : i know . you know , philip actually is saying that maybe it was n't an accident . john : what do you mean ? belle : i do n't know . maybe he thinks i did it . john : now , why would he say that ? belle : dad , he was so angry when he found out about the mix - up , that he actually asked mimi 's surrogate and me to have an abortion . i mean , i could n't do that . so then he got all angry that i would n't and he ran off and wrecked max 's race car . he could have killed himself . john : let me ask you something , baby . does philip think that you want to be pregnant with shawn 's baby ? belle : he does . i know it 's awful , but i am happy that things turned out this way . oh , what ? you know how i feel . you know how i 've always felt about shawn . john : yeah , yeah , yeah , but listen -- i thought you and philip were working this marriage out . belle : we are trying to make our marriage work . but , mom , you remember what you said to me when we were at the hospital , when claire was sick ? marlena : oh , belle , you ca n't -- you ca n't think about that . i was n't myself . i was so ill then . it was the amnesia . belle : okay , all right , well , even so , you saw how much i still love shawn , and you were right . i do love him . and i realized just how much when i found out i was pregnant with his baby . we are gon na be connected for the rest of our lives , just like you and dad when i was born . and i really think ... i really think that this is a sign that shawn and i are meant to be together . [ scene_break ] e.j . : i heard you say your contractor wo n't complete the apartment renovations . why do n't you let me help ? i 've flipped a few houses in my time . i 'd be happy to offer you some of my expertise . we would really speed things along . carrie : well , that 's very sweet of you , e.j . , but do n't you already have two full - time careers ? are n't you a little busy ? e.j . : you 've all been extremely kind to me since i came to salem , and if i can find a way to repay you , i 'm very happy to be able to . carrie : but you 're like this international celebrity . we do n't want you painting our bathroom . sami : oh , come on , carrie . he 's offering to help . you should take him up on it . lucas : yeah , will is coming back from camp soon and i 'd hate for him to be in a hotel when he starts school . e.j . : okay , well , sounds like we have a plan . lucas : i guess you just convinced me . it did n't take that much , but you convinced me . you sure you know what you 're doing , right ? e.j . : i do . lucas : okay , well , good . let 's go check out the apartment , see if you can help . e.j . : okay . lucas : thank you . we 'll be back , all right ? sami : i 'll show you all out . e.j . , thank you . [ grunts ] thank god they 're gone . see ? now carrie and lucas have a place to stay . they will be out of our hair . austin : yeah , i guess so . sami : what do you mean , austin ? it sounds like you 're almost disappointed that they 're leaving . [ scene_break ] mimi : i know you ca n't do anything about it , but , obviously , i 'm having a really hard time with belle being pregnant with your baby . shawn d. : well , it 's a tough situation for all of us , not to mention how the kids are gon na deal with this when they get older . we just have to make the best out of a really tough situation . mimi : i want to do more than that . shawn d. : what do you mean ? mimi : i do n't want this to drag on and on , shawn . i do n't want to wait and see how everything works out , when god knows what belle 's hormones are gon na tell her to do next . shawn d. : okay . mimi : i want a court to decide in advance what the custody arrangements will be for both babies . shawn d. : are you serious ? mimi : yes , i 'm serious . i need peace of mind that belle is not going to try to use this baby to get you back . [ scene_break ] marlena : belle , i can understand how you might think that being pregnant with shawn 's child is a sign that you 're meant to be together . but it 's not . it 's a mistake . it was an accident . honey , shawn is married . he 's with somebody else now . belle : he does n't love her the way he loves me . john : baby , i know what it 's like to see the person you love with somebody else . but the fact is , shawn made it very clear to you , did n't he ? he loves mimi . his life is with her , not you . marlena : you need to listen to your father , belle . and baby or no baby .... you 've got to find some way to come to terms with this . shawn is no longer yours to love , not anymore . you have to move on . john : with a husband who loves you -- that beautiful baby little girl and another one on the way here . belle : i know . marlena : oh , belle . belle , we 're just trying to help you . belle : i know . i just -- i think the hardest part about all of this is .... i have just missed having you both here . marlena : i 'm so sorry . i 'm so sorry . belle : do n't be . it 's not your fault . it 's mine . i have made a mess of everything . but , you know , i think about the fact that you were married to roman . you had a family with him , with carrie and eric and sami , and then you and dad and brady and i -- we were a family , too , and we were happy . and i know that you 're gon na try and tell me not to do what you did , but you ca n't honestly say that it was a mistake , can you ? john : no , of course not . belle : 'cause i know you 're my parents and you 're trying to tell me what you think that i need to hear , but shawn was my high - school sweetheart . and then he broke my heart and i tried to move on with philip . but how am i supposed to do that when i am pregnant with shawn 's baby ? [ scene_break ] e.j . : actually , it 's really not that bad . i mean , the bedroom caught the worst of it 'cause that was where the fire started . lucas : the rest is mostly just smoke damage . e.j . : [ sighs ] it 's gon na take some time and a little bit of elbow grease , but i ca n't think of any reason why we could n't have you back in here by tonight . lucas : tonight ? really ? that 'd be nice . carrie : okay , i just called the building - supply company and ordered the things we 'll need . e.j . : well , good . lucas : so we 'll just get started . e.j . : yeah , no time like the present . lucas : yeah , i 'm gon na -- i 'm gon na get that light fixture in the bedroom . i 'll be back , okay ? are you gon na be all right ? carrie : yeah . um , e.j . e.j . : yes ? carrie : i have a question for you . why are you really doing this ? [ scene_break ] austin : no . no , i 'm not disappointed by them moving out . sami : are you sure ? austin : yeah . i 'm sure . that 's just the way i get . i get more time with my fiance . sami : austin , you are the best . i love you so much . thank you so much for making last night so special for me and my ring and ... we really are gon na get married this time , though , right ? austin : you know what ? i know you wanted to move the wedding up and i wanted to wait because of work and everything . but i think we should do it . i think it 's perfect timing ... now . sami : oh , my god . do you mean -- austin : yeah , yeah . we should get married as soon as possible . sami : [ laughs ] austin . [ scene_break ] marlena : belle , it is going to be difficult to know that you 're carrying shawn 's child . but that was an accident . it is n't like what happened with daddy and me . this baby was n't created out of an act of love . so you need to focus on saving your marriage to philip . belle : that 's what shawn keeps saying . [ sighs ] well , thank you for talking this out with me . it helped . marlena : i hope so . belle : i know what i need to do now , so i need to go . marlena : belle ... we love you so much . oh , honey . belle : i love you , too . and it 's so good to see you guys back together . marlena : [ laughs ] john : yes , it is . we 're always here for you , baby . call me . belle : definitely . john : bye . whoa . [ scene_break ] marlena : mmm . oh . poor belle . hope we helped her some . john : oh , she 'll be all right . she 's a good kid -- smart , takes right after her mother , who i love so much . what is it , hmm ? hmm ? marlena : [ chuckles ] i do n't know how to say it . john : say what ? come on , i know you . all the looks -- the happy one , the sad one ... and the one when ... something 's on your mind . and this one 's about us , is n't it ? [ scene_break ] e.j . : the real reason ? i 'm offering to help you because i 'm your friend . carrie : i do n't mean to sound paranoid . it 's just most people would n't go this far out of their way unless they had an ulterior motive . and you 've already rescued me once , and i do n't really know you that well , and i feel extremely indebted . e.j . : carrie , i do n't think it 's any secret that , um , i 've grown very close to your sister , and i do n't wish to see her get hurt . that 's really what this is about . whatever happened ... last night up on the roof with austin , that 's between us . it goes no further . to be quite honest , i 'd rather forget about it . and assuming this is n't gon na happen again , i do n't see any reason why samantha needs to know about it . carrie : it definitely wo n't happen again . e.j . : okay . carrie : thanks , e.j . um ... you really are a good friend and -- well , i better meet the building - supply truck downstairs . [ scene_break ] lucas : guess we 'll be needing a new light fixture . this one 's a goner . e.j . : thank god for that . it 's pretty unimaginative . lucas : yeah , well , it came with the apartment . listen , thanks for your help . i appreciate it . you 're right . it 's not gon na take that long at all , so it 's good . the sooner we get out of sami and austin 's apartment , the better . e.j . : you know , i do n't mean to pry , but , i mean , i know that you and austin are a little bit competitive in the business arena , but i thought that as brothers you guys were close . you seem ... on edge a little . lucas : well , it 's kind of complicated , you know . my relationship with my brother is a little rough around the edges , mostly because of sami . but if you do n't mind , i 'd really rather not talk about my brother . i 'm happy . i 'm with carrie now . things are really looking up , you know . despite a few setbacks , like this apartment catching on fire and lexie telling her that she might not be able to ever have children , we 're happy . we 're happy about our future . excuse me .. [ scene_break ] sami : oh , austin , this is so incredible . you really mean it , though , right ? you really want to get married . austin : only if you 're okay with it . sami : okay with it ? are you kidding me ? i 'm -- oh , my god . austin : what 's wrong ? sami : well , there 's so much to do . i have to start planning . austin : well , you know , it 's up to you . it 's -- it 's -- sami : are you kidding me ? if there 's anyone who can plan a wedding in 24 hours or less , it would be -- yeah , i guess i 've had a lot of practice , huh ? austin : [ laughs ] sami : austin , this time it 's gon na be for real , is n't it ? we 're gon na get married . we 're gon na go on a beautiful honeymoon . and you and i -- we 're gon na live happily ever after . austin : yeah . sami : lists , lists . oh , my gosh , there is so much i have to do . okay , let 's start with the caterer . and then i have to make sure the church is available . flowers . austin : sami , sami . calm down , calm down . everything is gon na get done . everything 's gon na get done . sami : and carrie and lucas . we have to check with them , make sure they 're available . austin : we will tell them later . right now , they 're trying to get their apartment back together . sami : this is really important . what if they 've already planned to go on their honeymoon and then they 're not here for that date ? we have to make sure they 're -- and they 're gon na want to hear our good news . [ scene_break ] e.j . : look , if you do n't mind , actually , i have to run off to max 's garage for a meeting . lucas : oh , okay . that 's okay , no problem . thank you for all your help . we appreciate it . we 'd still be waiting on that contractor if it was n't for you . e.j . : it was my pleasure . i 'll be back later to help you guys finish up . lucas : thanks again . carrie : thanks , e.j . thank you . well , this is great . i felt bad when he offered at first , but , um ... i do n't think i could have stayed another night in sami and austin 's apartment . [ scene_break ] lucas : right , 'cause it was so cramped . is there another reason why ? carrie : well , i lived in that apartment for a long time , you know , including the first time that i fell in love with austin . and it 's difficult being around him 24/7 . it brings up a lot of memories . lucas : i see . carrie : but ... you and i are married and we 're supposed to be on our honeymoon . we 've kind of had a rough start , you know ? but i just want to concentrate on you and our life together . lucas : that 's what i 'm talking about . carrie : [ laughs ] lucas : as soon as we get this apartment done , it 's you , me , and our honeymoon . carrie : good . [ scene_break ] sami : hey , oh , sorry , you two . i did n't mean to interrupt . well , i kind of did , actually , 'cause we have really good news . we 've decided to move up the wedding . carrie : what ? lucas : well , that 's great . that 's really great . what made you change your mind ? sami : actually , it was austin 's idea . lucas : wow , that 's great , is n't it , carrie ? carrie : yeah , it is . [ scene_break ] mimi : you sound like you still do n't want to do this . shawn d. : no , if you want me to talk to uncle mickey , i will . mimi : i do , and i do n't understand why you 're acting like it 's such a crazy idea . shawn d. : no , it 's not that . i 'm just wondering ... what it is that you 're really afraid of . mimi : what do you think i 'm afraid of ? i 'm afraid that belle 's going to try to use this baby as an excuse to wind up in your bed -- excuse me -- our bed and kick me out of it .. shawn d. : well , that 's not gon na happen . mimi : i just would feel better if we did this . shawn d. : all right , i will talk to uncle mickey . what do you want me to ask him to do for us ? because philip and belle are gon na want to have visitation . mimi : and you 're gon na want them for philip and belle 's baby . i know . shawn d. : well , they live right across the hall . we 're gon na see them every day . mimi : do you plan on living across the hall from them forever ? because i sure do n't . i mean , heck , we could wind up living in different states . shawn d. : and you would like it if that happened , would n't you ? mimi : yeah , i would , but you 'd hate it . shawn d. : could you blame me ? mimi : no , no . that 's why we need a custody arrangement in place and a visitation schedule from the beginning so we set some ground rules before we make any big decisions about the future . [ scene_break ] belle : uh , you want to tell me what 's going on here ? marlena : it is about us . john : okay . what 's wrong ? marlena : when i was away , i had a lot of time to think about us . took me some time to realize that i 'm not -- i 'm not the same strong woman that i always thought i was . john : of course you are . listen , what happened between you and alex , it was n't your fault , none of it . marlena : no , alex ... alex abused me . and i let that happen . and then there was what stefano did to me , and then tony . i always turned to you ... or roman for help , to be rescued . i leaned way too much on you . john : yeah , well , you see , that 's what love and marriage is all about . i mean , it 's partners who depend upon each other . i mean , i do the same with you . marlena : but i ca n't be strong for you unless i 'm strong for myself . i have to stand on my own two feet . john : so what are you getting at ? marlena : i need us to separate . [ scene_break ] carrie : well , i 'm really happy for you guys . but is n't it a little sudden ? i thought you wanted to have a big wedding , sami ? sami : well , i think we can have a sudden big wedding . and i already spoke to father jansen and he already has the date available that you guys requested , so we can use that , right ? austin : yeah . carrie : but you wo n't be able to send out invitations , and eric wo n't be able to be there and john and marlena and i 'm really bummed about eric , but he understands , and he 's flying all over the world . he 'll be okay with it . austin : so , i guess there 's no reason for us to wait after all . is there ? [ scene_break ] e.j . : excuse me . hi , oh , you 're abby , right ? abby : uh , y - yeah . um , i 'm abby . e.j . : is max around ? abby : you know what ? he just stepped out . i 'm actually waiting for him . e.j . : we were supposed to get together to discuss the salem grand prix . well , now i 'm glad he 's running late . abby : why ? e.j . : well , it 'll give you and i a chance to get to know each other .

[ scene_break ] ( dialing phone ) dr. campbell : all right , thanks for calling . gloria : well ? jack : what did the lab say ? dr. campbell : well , first , so that you have an understanding of the full picture , you know that i ordered a complete blood work up on john . i also ran a battery of neurological tests . we ordered a c.t . scan and an m.r.i . on john 's skull . gloria : yeah , yeah , yeah , doctor , you said that . you said that . dr. campbell : i only added the radiological component after we found out about the fight . that 's because any injury to the head could affect the brain causing disorganized thinking -- even personality changes like we 've seen in john . gloria : but , dr. campbell , the fight was ... dr. campbell : i know , the fight came after we discovered the symptoms in john , and possibly because of the symptoms . but given the environment that john 's in , it 's not out of the question that he could 've received a blow or a head injury from some other source . jack : so what are we looking at here ? dr. campbell : well , first of all , there 's no indication alzheimer 's or dementia from any of the neurological tests . gloria : oh , thank god for that . dr. campbell : there 's also no evidence of any other kind of brain trauma . so i think that we can rule that out as a potential cause of john 's behavioral aberrations . jack : but something caused this . this was n't just stress . dr. campbell : well , john 's on several medications that can have negative interactions when combined . now from the dosages that i saw in the prison and the lab report that i just received , i think it 's possible that that could be the culprit . jack : it could be as simple as the wrong mix of medications ? dr. campbell : that 's the way it looks right now , yeah . gloria : but you still are n't certain ? dr. campbell : well , we ca n't be certain until we adjust the dosages . and then monitor john 's behavior for a couple of days . gloria : and then that should fix the problem ? that 'll be all right ? and he wo n't think that i 'm dina , or ask jack to go chasing after her ? dr. campbell : bad prescription interactions can be very dangerous , even fatal . but i think we 've caught this in time , so i 'm optimistic that john should make a full recovery . gloria : oh , doctor , thank you . thank you so much ! you have no idea what this means to us ! jack : thank you , doctor , for being so meticulous . dr. campbell : well , john 's been a patient of mine for many years . i 'm just glad that we could pinpoint something this early . now i just have to coordinate our efforts with the prison pharmacist . and then make sure that i 'm right .

[ sighs ] i know . chloe : my little valentine 's girl . lily : you know , as contentious as everything had been between us in that cabin , when it came time to finally bring delia into the world , we all banded together . cane : and here we are doing it again to honor her memory . she 'd be proud . lily : i think that i 'll be a night to remember . nick : it 's not too late , is it ? sharon : uh , no . i was just sitting here thinking about ... nick : adam ? you can say it . we 've all been thinking about what happened . sharon : is that what you came here to talk about ? nick : he 's at the heart of it , i guess . sharon : the heart of what ? nick : what my dad did . sharon : oh , no . what happened now ? nick : you 're never gon na believe it . he 's gone too far this time . victoria : i did n't find any sign of him . you ? stitch : i spoke with security and the charge nurse . no one 's seen billy . victoria : well , his clothes are missing , which means he did n't sneak down to the cafeteria . stitch : yeah , i 'd say he 's long gone by now . victoria : and in no condition to be running around . billy : i want answers , victor . victor : come in . billy : what did you say to upset victoria ? victor : what are you talking about ? billy : the whole hospital heard you go two going at it . victor : do you think you might have heard things ? you know , effects of the concussion . nikki : billy , what are you doing here ? victoria said you would n't be out of the hospital till tomorrow . billy : i could n't wait that long . nikki : but , honey , you 've had a major car accident . you ca n't be up walking around like this . come on . i 'm gon na drive you back to the hospital . billy : i am not going anywhere -- not until i get what i came for . lily : wait until you see this . i think it 's going to be the highlight of the night . cane : it is a rare collectible . kelly : yes , she 's over 100 years old , she has her own certificates and papers of authenticity . chloe : she ? lily : yes . delia would have loved this . ladies and gentlemen , i give you ... the snow queen . chloe : wow ! oh , wow , she 's so beautiful . lily : yeah . chloe : you 're right . oh , you 're right . delia would have loved her . delia would have loved to have that doll . lily : yeah , and we 're gon na auction it off , and all the proceeds will go to the delia project . kelly : i would love to see it up close . is there any way to take the case off her ? lily : no . actually , you need a digital code to open it , and only the winner will receive that . cane : yeah , but kate logan spencer from spencer publications already put in a very big bid . kelly : yes , plus a sizable at - large contribution . cane : uh - huh . chloe : guys , this is so thoughtful . thank you . i know that tomorrow night -- it 's gon na be an amazing event . kelly : it really is . we have this whole fairy - tale theme going on , in addition to a little performance that some of the kids are putting on . cane : mattie and charlie ca n't wait . they 're excited . lily : and i know i 'm prejudiced , but they 're gon na steal the show . [ chuckles ] chloe : just like delia did at her performance . cane : are you okay ? chloe : yeah , i 'm just , uh , i 'm exhausted . [ chuckles ] it 's been such a long day , so , you know , i just ca n't wait . tomorrow night is gon na be great , and i 'll see you guys then . [ footsteps depart ] cane : [ sighs ] lily : why did i say that ? why did i say that ? i did n't mean to upset -- why did i say that ? kelly : no , no , no , no . you got to know that this whole thing is gon na upset her . if this was for my son , it would upset me , too . even more the reason that we have to just make sure that this benefit goes off without a hitch , which brings up a little issue . adam newman bought a table . lily : oh , great . kelly : yeah , especially since we know that chloe does n't want adam 's blood money anywhere around this place . [ cell phone rings ] cane : it 's the florist . uh , let me take this , make sure there 's no problems with the order . kelly : okay . cane : hello ? lily : how about a coffee break ? kelly : um ... lily : yeah . yes . kelly : yes . lily : [ chuckles ] you know , i just want to say that you 've been doing a really great job , and i think that you deserve a reward , so how about a blind date ? kelly : uh ... seriously ? lily : [ chuckling ] i 'm sorry . i hope i 'm not too forward . i just -- the people i have in mind -- they 're both -- they 're gorgeous , they 're smart . it 'd be fun . yeah ? kelly : well , that 's a good place to start . it 's just , um ... lily : what ? kelly : can -- can i think about it ? lily : of course . sure . kelly : [ chuckles ] lily : oh , look at this . it 's -- this is what mattie and charlie are gon na be wearing in their performance . kelly : [ gasps ] lily : are n't they so cute ? [ both laugh ] kelly : so cute ! lily : i know . colin : i can hardly wait to see my grandkids wearing those outfits . [ scene_break ] victoria : he obviously is n't thinking straight . otherwise , he would never put his health at risk like this . stitch : why do n't you make a few calls ? billy 's got a brother , right ? maybe he 's heard from him . i 'll do some more checking around . [ cell phone rings ] kelly : [ sighs ] why are you calling me ? what do you want ? stitch : have you seen billy ? kelly : no , not since i left him at the hospital . stitch : kelly , i need to know if he 's there with you . kelly : you mean in bed with me ? stitch : just answer the question . kelly : no , ben . i 'm not having sex with another woman 's husband . stitch : billy left the hospital . we ca n't find him . kelly : he left without a doctor 's release ? stitch : just let me know if you hear from him , okay ? kelly : of course . victoria : i just left a message for jack , but it hit me where billy might be . he was asking me earlier about my argument with my father . stitch : you think he might be over there ? victoria : if he figured it out . stitch : figured what out ? victoria : i do n't have time to explain . if billy knows what my dad did , he 'll try to kill him . victor : do you know what he 's babbling about ? nikki : no , but i would like to . what is it that you want , billy ? [ cell phone ringing ] victor : are n't you going to answer that ? nikki : no . i do n't care . whoever it is can wait . billy : vicki told me you two were going off about summer and the drugs . nikki : wait a minute . you had an argument with victoria ? billy : oh , no . no . it was more like a screaming match -- right outside my hospital room . but it was n't about summer , was it ? victor : why do doubt your own wife ? billy : because i know when she 's feeding me a line of bull . she was protecting me from something -- something about you and adam . i heard his name , victor . i know you were yelling about him . nick : oh , my god , victor . i ca n't believe that you did this . billy : [ coughing ] victor : billy boy , there 's no sense in getting upset about an argument i had with my daughter , all right ? i think you should get back to the hospital now . billy : i am not going anywhere ! you tell me , damn it ! you tell me about adam ! nikki : victor , tell him . either you tell him , or i will . victor : you will do no such thing . nikki : he 's gon na find out , either from you or me or jack and victoria . billy : jack already knows about this ? victor : he knows nothing . billy : this is about delia , is n't it ? that 's why you do n't want to say anything . what could be so terrible that i do n't already know about my little girl ? sharon : victor knew that adam committed the hit - and - run ? nick : yeah , and he was holding it over adam 's head so he could gain access to connor . sharon : well , i 'm sure in victor 's mind , he felt he was just protecting his grandson . nick : dad 's protection just makes things worse . i mean , look at what he 's doing with me . like , i need protecting from you ? how are you gon na hurt me ? i just -- i mean , i am so fed up with this , but i have no idea what to do about it . sharon : well , there 's nothing to do . he 's never gon na change . nick : you 'd think i would have learned that by now . sharon : you 're the one that told me not me not to let victor get to me . nick : yep . i just need to figure out how to take my own advice . faith : mommy ! daddy ! i 'm scared of the phantasm ! nick : of the what ? faith : the ghost who wrote the word in my game . sharon : faith 's a little bit confused . faith : if i did n't write it and you did n't write it , then who did ? nick : what is she talking about ? sharon : faith and i were playing this word game , and i had to step away for a few minutes . when i came back , i noticed the cards spelled `` phantasm . `` naturally , i was surprised that faith would come up with something so sophisticated . nick : but she says she did n't . sharon : no , that 's just it . i - i completely forgot i had put it there earlier . nick : you forgot ? sharon : yeah , just , you know , with , um , you know , this thing with adam and -- and everything that 's going on right now . i just -- i guess my mind was elsewhere . nick : huh . sharon : i 'm sorry it scared you , sweetie . there 's nothing to worry about . there 's no phantasm . nick : you know what ? i got a word for you , baby girl . v - a - l - e - n - t - i - n - e . do you know what that spells ? faith : valentine . nick : valentine ! you got it ! and if you 're gon na be my valentine tomorrow night at the big party , you better get some sleep . [ smooches ] lots of it . faith : who 's gon na be mommy 's valentine ? sharon : well , mommy does n't need one . i 'm lucky enough to have a whole lot of love in my life . lily : if you think that you 're going anywhere near my children , think again . colin : you 'd keep a grandpa away from his grandkids ? lily : there is no way in hell that i 'm giving you a chance to kidnap them again . so get out of my face and get out of our lives . cane : you heard what she said , dad . leave , or i 'll throw you out . colin : okay . cane : okay ? colin : i 'll go . but since my beautiful wife is on the board of the delia project , expect to see me at the fundraiser tomorrow night , checkbook in hand . lily : we do n't want your money . colin : but think of the good it 'll bring all those needy kids ... and maybe mend a fence or two . lily : oh , so you can lull us into a false sense of security and then make your move ? that 's not happening . i 'm sorry . cane : sweetheart , can i , uh , talk to my dad in privacy for a minute , please ? there 's a couple things we need to talk about . lily : fine , as long it 's the last conversation you ever have . anita : honey , you have got to stop hoping for something that 's never gon na happen . yes , you have had the rug pulled out from under you , but what did i teach you to do when that happens ? chelsea : steal a new rug ? anita : you pull yourself up by your bootstraps , whether they 're dirty , old cowboy boots or louboutins , and you dust yourself off , and you start over again . chelsea : mom , this is n't some minor situation that did n't work out the way i had planned . my husband is missing . anita : your husband is dead . chelsea : have they found a body ? anita : no . chelsea : no . exactly . and until they do , i 'm not giving up on him . anita : all right . fine . but you got to stop moping around . get back to work . go to the design studio and whip me up a new , hot , sexy dress . chelsea : no . i do n't think i can face chloe right now . [ sighs ] anita : it 's not like you ran over her little girl . chelsea : but the man she warned me about did , and i married him anyway . how are we supposed to get past that ? anita : we got past our troubles , did n't we ? you forgave me for everything i did . i think chloe can forgive you for ignoring her advice . chelsea : even if chloe forgives me , i 'm not sure i can forgive myself . anita : for what ? chelsea : ignoring the signs that adam was hiding something ... for loving him . for still loving him but hating him at the same time . how am i supposed to resolve this , mom ? it 's like i ca n't even confront adam . i ca n't even spit on his grave if i wanted to . what am i supposed to do ? i do n't know where to put all of this anger . i do n't know where to put all this hurt . victor : there 's no sense in you getting yourself all worked up , all right ? so , we can get you back to memorial hospital , or show yourself out . victoria : [ sighs ] thank god . why would you leave the hospital ? you can barely stand . why would you take that chance ? billy : did you really think i was gon na sit in bed and ignore the fact that you 're hiding something from me ? something about adam and your father and delia . victoria : what have you told him ? billy : nothing . they have n't told me anything , including your mother , who 's supposedly in on the secret , as well . nikki : i found out yesterday . billy : even my brother knows about this . everyone but me , the one person that it would probably affect the most . please , vick , i deserve to know . victoria : he 's right . you 're right . i 'll tell you everything [ scene_break ] nick : okay . after about the fifth `` i ca n't fall asleep `` protest from faith [ snaps fingers ] out like a light . sharon : thanks . nick : should i be concerned about all this ? sharon : about what ? nick : i mean , the other night , the trash cans somehow get knocked over , and it spooks faith . now this . sharon : um , no . she 'll be okay . nick : maybe , but you got to admit -- it 's all a little weird . sharon : i already explained . i 'm the one who wrote the word `` phantasm . `` nick : there 's nothing else going on ? sharon : i told you . nick : i know . but why do you seem more freaked out about this than faith ? sharon , you got to tell me . what 's got you so upset ? sharon : i 'm afraid . nick : of what ? sharon : that my meds have stopped working . anita : maybe you should take a kickboxing class or tae kwon do . beat someone else up instead of yourself . [ knock on door ] anita : who 's that ? chelsea : maybe it 's someone else who 's come to tell me what to do with my life . lily . hi . lily : hi ! may i come in ? chelsea : please . save me from my mother . anita : oh , that 's the thanks i get for trying to help ? lily : [ chuckles ] chelsea : so , um , what , uh , what brings you by ? lily : uh , it 's kind of an awkward errand . um , it 's about adam . chelsea : adam ? lily : yeah , he bought a table for the delia project benefit tomorrow night . anita : i would n't worry about him showing up if i were you . lily : uh , no , but chloe just refuses to have him attached to the event in any way . anita : aside from his money ? lily : actually , she returned his donation , so -- chelsea : so , um , i do n't -- you 're just gon na let the foundation go under ? lily : no . devon is putting his own money in . chelsea : oh . um , yeah , i guess i ca n't blame chloe for not wanting him involved . lily : look , i 'm sorry , but it would just make things so much easier on chloe if you 'd just take the check back . and like your mom said , he wo n't be needing a table anyway . anita : well , maybe he wo n't , but chelsea will . chloe : we are just so excited about this auction tomorrow , and it was all i could do to keep a smile on my face , and i 'm just gon na be worse tomorrow . why are they even having the event on her birthday ? kevin : they probably thought that the tie - in would boost donations . chloe : [ sighs ] you know , the day after delia turned 7 , she already knew what she was gon na do when she turned 8 . kevin : yeah , i know . she wanted a grown - up tea party . chloe : in england , because that 's where they invented tea . kevin : [ chuckles ] chloe : at least that 's what delia believed . and we were gon na invite the queen and her family and have scones and scrumpets . kevin : `` skrumpets . `` that 's how she used to say it . i love that . chloe : except there are n't gon na be any scrumpets tomorrow , and i 'm gon na be stuck in that room with her name plastered everywhere and listening to speeches about how she did n't die in vain ... that thanks to her foundation , kids are now gon na have the chance to do things -- things that delia will never do again . [ voice breaking ] i ca n't do it , kevin . i ca n't go to that benefit . victor : okay . tell him . then i 'll tell my side of the story , okay ? victoria : the reason that dad and i were arguing earlier is because i found out ... that he knew that adam was the driver who killed dee dee . he knew , and he did n't say anything , 'cause he wanted to hold it over adam 's head and because he wanted to use it for his own benefit . billy : of course he did . but that 's textbook victor , right ? actually , you know , i take that back . you did one better this time , did n't you ? blackmailing your own son . using the death of an innocent , little girl as a bargaining chip . you reached new lows this time , victor . not even i thought you could be this twisted . victor : you 're wrong , billy boy . all of you are wrong . i kept this a secret in order to help my family . victoria : help us ? nikki : that 's how he sees it . victor : you 're damn right that 's how i see it ! i know my motive ! victoria : yeah , your motive . your motive was to keep your grandson from adam . victor : you bet ! that 's exactly what my motive was . you all know what a sick man he was . he left his poor daughter to die by the roadside . he ran her over and drove away ! no child would have been safe with him ! victoria : that is not for you to decide ! victor : why the hell not ? ! billy : because you are not god ! you can not play with our lives ! you knew adam 's secret , and that makes you just as guilty as he is . victor : listen to me , you hypocrite . i 'm sick and tired of all of your self- righteous bs ! who left the little girl in the car by herself ? ! who allowed her to go play by the roadside by herself at night ? ! who ? ! you ! you look at yourself ! billy : you son of a bitch . victor : what ? ! victoria : oh , god . billy . billy : [ grunting ] victoria : billy ... billy , are you okay ? victoria : billy , are you okay ? are you all right ? is it your ribs ? nikki : i 'm calling 911 . billy : no ! do n't ! i 'm fine . victoria : no , you 're not ! you 're not fine ! why did n't you just tell him about adam when you knew ? victor : and then what ? none of this would have happened ? are you kidding me ? if he had found out that adam had killed his daughter , he would have killed adam ! and then what ? he would have gone to the penitentiary for the rest of his life , and you and johnny would have visited him behind a glass partition ! is that what you want ? ! victoria : this is not about stopping billy . are you kidding me ? this was you -- you wanting to get your hands on connor . that 's all . and delia was just your pawn . you claimed that you loved her as your own grandchild , but that 's not true . you did n't care about her , because she was n't your own flesh and blood . you did n't care . victor : do n't you put words in my mouth . victoria : fine ! i am done . i quit . i quit . i quit you , i quit my job . i quit . victor : then quit ! and good luck to you ! i 'm still your father . victoria : no , no you 're not , not anymore . you 're not . billy : let 's get out of here . victor : now get the hell out of here ! victoria : i should have left years ago ! victor : out ! you 'll come back ! you always do ! colin : that 's a nice doll . i think she gets a bit stuffy in there . cane : what do you want ? why are you really here ? colin : to make peace . is that so hard to believe ? cane : coming from you , yes , 'cause i do n't believe a word that comes out of your mouth . colin : if my savvy , astute wife can give me a second chance , i mean , why ca n't you ? cane : [ scoffs ] you know , frankly i 'm starting to have second thoughts about this whole reconciliation thing with jill . you know , it would n't surprise me right now , as we speak , she 's off talking to someone about unloading a new husband . colin : [ chuckles ] on the contrary . she 's crazy about me . i feel the same way about her . i promised tomorrow night to be on my best behavior at the function . cane : you better be . colin : delia was my wife 's granddaughter . i would never do anything to spoil or desecrate the memory of that beautiful child . cane : 'cause if you do , i swear to you -- no , i swear to god , i will make you pay . if you do anything , i will make you pay , dad , and that 's a promise you can trust . okay ? chelsea : that 's it , mom . enough . i can speak for myself . anita : of course , you can . but lately you have n't been making a whole lot of sense , so mama is going to speak for you . yes , chelsea would be honored to attend the benefit . chelsea : chelsea has no intention of going . lily : okay , whatever you think is best . anita : are you going to embarrass the charity by having a big , old , empty table right smack in the middle of the ballroom ? chelsea : adam already mentioned he was gon na donate his table to the delia project volunteers , because we were gon na be out of the country , remember ? anita : well , fine . then let the riffraff have their seats as long as you 're beside them . lily , honey , thank you so much for dropping by . we 're not gon na keep you , though , okay ? and , uh , chelsea is going to see you tomorrow night . lily : okay . anita : okay . lily : whatever is best -- whatever you decide is fine . anita : thank you . lily : okay . bye . anita : what is the matter with you ? this is a chance for you to start distancing yourself from this man that killed this little girl . no more of this guilt - by - association bunk . you are gon na march into that ballroom with your head held high and show the world that you are not responsible for your husband 's actions . chelsea : mom , i -- anita : yes , and i know that you still love adam , but he is not coming back , dead or alive . so , you better make damn sure that you are not dragged down by his crime . [ scene_break ] kevin : hey , you remember last valentine 's day , what delia was doing before her birthday party ? chloe : [ chuckles ] yeah , she was passing out valentines to all the sick kids at the hospital . kevin : yeah . she said she knew what it was like to be stuck in there for a holiday , how sad and lonely it was , and she did n't want any other kid to have to go through that , especially on a day that was all about love . chloe : she was always thinking about other people . [ chuckles ] how does one so selfless come from me and billy ? kevin : selfless and fearless . she put on her gown and her mask , and she had this big smile on her face , and she never lost it -- not even when she dealing with the kids that were , you know , in really bad shape . she just -- she faced it head - on , 'cause she had a job to do -- making sure that no kid was left behind . [ inhales , exhales raggedly ] chloe : i 'm not as brave as her . kevin : that is not true . it 's not true . a mother lion like you -- you would have walked through fire for her . and going to this benefit tomorrow , chloe , it 's just another version of that . chloe : how am i gon na watch these kids perform , knowing that that was dee 's dream ? kevin : look , it 's incredibly sad and unfair that that dream is never gon na become a reality , but now we get to pass it on to others , and i know that she would love that . she would love that . nick : all right , what makes you think your meds are not working anymore ? sharon : lately , i 've just been a little confused , disoriented . nick : are we talking about this game that you were playing with faith , or is it more serious ? are you seeing cassie again ? sharon : you know what ? i should n't have said anything . i do n't want you to worry . nick : too late for that . sharon : well , there 's really no reason to . i 'm -- you know , i 'm seeing my psychiatrist later this week , and i 'm sure that i 'll just get my dosage adjusted or a new prescription entirely that 'll fix everything . nick : okay . well , why do n't you get someone to watch faith and then let me go with you to your appointment ? i really think you could use some company , and , honestly , sharon , i will do anything you need . you just have to ask . stitch : what are you doing here ? kelly : what do you think ? i 'm here to see if you found billy yet . stitch : victoria seemed to have an idea where he might have taken off to , so crisis averted . no need for you to stick around . kelly : what is that , your passive - aggressive way of telling me to get lost ? stitch : [ scoffs ] the less you show your face , the better . if i figured out you and billy had a one - night stand , someone else might , too -- someone his wife . kelly : why are you so invested in this ? stitch : has it ever occurred to you that i might actually be worried about you ? victoria : hey , look who i found . stitch : ah ! [ chuckles ] hey , what were you thinking , jumping ship ? huh ? do n't tell me you 're afraid of a few needles . billy : yeah , you found me out . kelly : i 'm so glad you 're okay . ben called me and -- and told me that you were missing . i thought maybe you went to group . stitch : all right . hey , no more insubordination . let 's , uh , let 's get you back in bed . i 'm gon na check you out . victoria : it was really sweet of you to come by . you 're a good friend . and after what happened today , billy 's gon na need one more than ever . [ scene_break ] victor : [ exhales deeply ] nikki : you have nothing to say ? nothing , after losing your daughter ? victor : i have nothing to say . we 've been through this with our daughter before . she 'll come back . nikki : i do n't know that she will this time . did you see her face ? she 's devastated . victor : this is all jack abbott 's doing . nikki : how so ? victor : that sob told victoria and nicholas the whole story . nikki : oh , my god , victor ! open your eyes ! it 's not jack ! it 's you ! it 's all you ! [ scene_break ] sharon : i appreciate your offer , nick , but you 're the one who came over here because you needed some help , so what can i do for you ? nick : you already did . my dad really got to me today , and ... i needed to talk to you . you 're the only one who understands . sharon : and i always will . nick : okay , so , if i go , are you gon na be okay here ? sharon : now i am . no more phantasm . nick : we 're phantasm free . sharon : yeah . nick : all right . you know what ? tomorrow night , there 's really no sense in us taking separate cars to the benefit . why do n't we all go together ? sharon : i 'd like that . nikki : you need to take responsibility for this , victor . admit that you were wrong ... and you might even have a prayer of winning the kids back . victor : you mind your own business , okay ? nikki : this is my business ! victoria : he can have his damn company and his grandson connor . he 's not coming near our family ever again . [ scene_break ] billy : you really mean that ? victoria : i know how believably painful losing delia has been for you ... and for dad . i ca n't even call him that anymore . for him to keep adam 's crime a secret is completely unforgivable . billy : i just ca n't believe he tried to justify it . [ scoffs ] wait a minute . what am i saying ? of course he would . [ chuckles ] victoria : hey , do n't talk about him anymore , okay ? it 's just you and me and johnny . now maybe your healing can finally begin . chloe : you know something ? i hate you . kevin : you hate me ? chloe : yeah , because all i want to do is crawl into a hole and feel sorry for myself and curse the world for the rest of my life , and you are just forcing me to be a better person . kevin : and that 's a bad thing ? chloe : yes , because i do n't want to be a better person . kevin : not even for delia ? chloe : see , you have to go ahead and say something like that .

[ cell phone ringing ] victor : are n't you going to answer that ? nikki : no . i do n't care . whoever it is can wait . billy : vicki told me you two were going off about summer and the drugs . nikki : wait a minute . you had an argument with victoria ? billy : oh , no . no . it was more like a screaming match -- right outside my hospital room . but it was n't about summer , was it ? victor : why do doubt your own wife ? billy : because i know when she 's feeding me a line of bull . she was protecting me from something -- something about you and adam . i heard his name , victor . i know you were yelling about him . nick : oh , my god , victor . i ca n't believe that you did this . billy : [ coughing ] victor : billy boy , there 's no sense in getting upset about an argument i had with my daughter , all right ? i think you should get back to the hospital now . billy : i am not going anywhere ! you tell me , damn it ! you tell me about adam ! nikki : victor , tell him . either you tell him , or i will . victor : you will do no such thing . nikki : he 's gon na find out , either from you or me or jack and victoria . billy : jack already knows about this ? victor : he knows nothing . billy : this is about delia , is n't it ? that 's why you do n't want to say anything . what could be so terrible that i do n't already know about my little girl ? sharon : victor knew that adam committed the hit - and - run ? nick : yeah , and he was holding it over adam 's head so he could gain access to connor . sharon : well , i 'm sure in victor 's mind , he felt he was just protecting his grandson . nick : dad 's protection just makes things worse . i mean , look at what he 's doing with me . like , i need protecting from you ? how are you gon na hurt me ? i just -- i mean , i am so fed up with this , but i have no idea what to do about it . sharon : well , there 's nothing to do . he 's never gon na change . nick : you 'd think i would have learned that by now . sharon : you 're the one that told me not me not to let victor get to me . nick : yep . i just need to figure out how to take my own advice . faith : mommy ! daddy ! i 'm scared of the phantasm ! nick : of the what ? faith : the ghost who wrote the word in my game . sharon : faith 's a little bit confused . faith : if i did n't write it and you did n't write it , then who did ? nick : what is she talking about ? sharon : faith and i were playing this word game , and i had to step away for a few minutes . when i came back , i noticed the cards spelled `` phantasm . `` naturally , i was surprised that faith would come up with something so sophisticated . nick : but she says she did n't . sharon : no , that 's just it . i - i completely forgot i had put it there earlier . nick : you forgot ? sharon : yeah , just , you know , with , um , you know , this thing with adam and -- and everything that 's going on right now . i just -- i guess my mind was elsewhere . nick : huh . sharon : i 'm sorry it scared you , sweetie . there 's nothing to worry about . there 's no phantasm . nick : you know what ? i got a word for you , baby girl . v - a - l - e - n - t - i - n - e . do you know what that spells ? faith : valentine . nick : valentine ! you got it ! and if you 're gon na be my valentine tomorrow night at the big party , you better get some sleep . [ smooches ] lots of it . faith : who 's gon na be mommy 's valentine ? sharon : well , mommy does n't need one . i 'm lucky enough to have a whole lot of love in my life . lily : if you think that you 're going anywhere near my children , think again . colin : you 'd keep a grandpa away from his grandkids ? lily : there is no way in hell that i 'm giving you a chance to kidnap them again . so get out of my face and get out of our lives . cane : you heard what she said , dad . leave , or i 'll throw you out . colin : okay . cane : okay ? colin : i 'll go . but since my beautiful wife is on the board of the delia project , expect to see me at the fundraiser tomorrow night , checkbook in hand . lily : we do n't want your money . colin : but think of the good it 'll bring all those needy kids ... and maybe mend a fence or two . lily : oh , so you can lull us into a false sense of security and then make your move ? that 's not happening . i 'm sorry . cane : sweetheart , can i , uh , talk to my dad in privacy for a minute , please ? there 's a couple things we need to talk about . lily : fine , as long it 's the last conversation you ever have . anita : honey , you have got to stop hoping for something that 's never gon na happen . yes , you have had the rug pulled out from under you , but what did i teach you to do when that happens ? chelsea : steal a new rug ? anita : you pull yourself up by your bootstraps , whether they 're dirty , old cowboy boots or louboutins , and you dust yourself off , and you start over again . chelsea : mom , this is n't some minor situation that did n't work out the way i had planned . my husband is missing . anita : your husband is dead . chelsea : have they found a body ? anita : no . chelsea : no . exactly . and until they do , i 'm not giving up on him . anita : all right . fine . but you got to stop moping around . get back to work . go to the design studio and whip me up a new , hot , sexy dress . chelsea : no . i do n't think i can face chloe right now . [ sighs ] anita : it 's not like you ran over her little girl . chelsea : but the man she warned me about did , and i married him anyway . how are we supposed to get past that ? anita : we got past our troubles , did n't we ? you forgave me for everything i did . i think chloe can forgive you for ignoring her advice . chelsea : even if chloe forgives me , i 'm not sure i can forgive myself . anita : for what ? chelsea : ignoring the signs that adam was hiding something ... for loving him . for still loving him but hating him at the same time . how am i supposed to resolve this , mom ? it 's like i ca n't even confront adam . i ca n't even spit on his grave if i wanted to . what am i supposed to do ? i do n't know where to put all of this anger . i do n't know where to put all this hurt . victor : there 's no sense in you getting yourself all worked up , all right ? so , we can get you back to memorial hospital , or show yourself out . victoria : [ sighs ] thank god . why would you leave the hospital ? you can barely stand . why would you take that chance ? billy : did you really think i was gon na sit in bed and ignore the fact that you 're hiding something from me ? something about adam and your father and delia . victoria : what have you told him ? billy : nothing . they have n't told me anything , including your mother , who 's supposedly in on the secret , as well . nikki : i found out yesterday . billy : even my brother knows about this . everyone but me , the one person that it would probably affect the most . please , vick , i deserve to know . victoria : he 's right . you 're right . i 'll tell you everything [ scene_break ] nick : okay . after about the fifth `` i ca n't fall asleep `` protest from faith [ snaps fingers ] out like a light . sharon : thanks . nick : should i be concerned about all this ? sharon : about what ? nick : i mean , the other night , the trash cans somehow get knocked over , and it spooks faith . now this . sharon : um , no . she 'll be okay . nick : maybe , but you got to admit -- it 's all a little weird . sharon : i already explained . i 'm the one who wrote the word `` phantasm . `` nick : there 's nothing else going on ? sharon : i told you . nick : i know . but why do you seem more freaked out about this than faith ? sharon , you got to tell me . what 's got you so upset ? sharon : i 'm afraid . nick : of what ? sharon : that my meds have stopped working . anita : maybe you should take a kickboxing class or tae kwon do . beat someone else up instead of yourself . [ knock on door ] anita : who 's that ? chelsea : maybe it 's someone else who 's come to tell me what to do with my life . lily . hi . lily : hi ! may i come in ? chelsea : please . save me from my mother . anita : oh , that 's the thanks i get for trying to help ? lily : [ chuckles ] chelsea : so , um , what , uh , what brings you by ? lily : uh , it 's kind of an awkward errand . um , it 's about adam . chelsea : adam ? lily : yeah , he bought a table for the delia project benefit tomorrow night . anita : i would n't worry about him showing up if i were you . lily : uh , no , but chloe just refuses to have him attached to the event in any way . anita : aside from his money ? lily : actually , she returned his donation , so -- chelsea : so , um , i do n't -- you 're just gon na let the foundation go under ? lily : no . devon is putting his own money in . chelsea : oh . um , yeah , i guess i ca n't blame chloe for not wanting him involved . lily : look , i 'm sorry , but it would just make things so much easier on chloe if you 'd just take the check back . and like your mom said , he wo n't be needing a table anyway . anita : well , maybe he wo n't , but chelsea will . chloe : we are just so excited about this auction tomorrow , and it was all i could do to keep a smile on my face , and i 'm just gon na be worse tomorrow . why are they even having the event on her birthday ? kevin : they probably thought that the tie - in would boost donations . chloe : [ sighs ] you know , the day after delia turned 7 , she already knew what she was gon na do when she turned 8 . kevin : yeah , i know . she wanted a grown - up tea party . chloe : in england , because that 's where they invented tea . kevin : [ chuckles ] chloe : at least that 's what delia believed . and we were gon na invite the queen and her family and have scones and scrumpets . kevin : `` skrumpets . `` that 's how she used to say it . i love that . chloe : except there are n't gon na be any scrumpets tomorrow , and i 'm gon na be stuck in that room with her name plastered everywhere and listening to speeches about how she did n't die in vain ... that thanks to her foundation , kids are now gon na have the chance to do things -- things that delia will never do again . [ voice breaking ] i ca n't do it , kevin . i ca n't go to that benefit . victor : okay . tell him . then i 'll tell my side of the story , okay ? victoria : the reason that dad and i were arguing earlier is because i found out ... that he knew that adam was the driver who killed dee dee . he knew , and he did n't say anything , 'cause he wanted to hold it over adam 's head and because he wanted to use it for his own benefit . billy : of course he did . but that 's textbook victor , right ? actually , you know , i take that back . you did one better this time , did n't you ? blackmailing your own son . using the death of an innocent , little girl as a bargaining chip . you reached new lows this time , victor . not even i thought you could be this twisted . victor : you 're wrong , billy boy . all of you are wrong . i kept this a secret in order to help my family . victoria : help us ? nikki : that 's how he sees it . victor : you 're damn right that 's how i see it ! i know my motive ! victoria : yeah , your motive . your motive was to keep your grandson from adam . victor : you bet ! that 's exactly what my motive was . you all know what a sick man he was . he left his poor daughter to die by the roadside . he ran her over and drove away ! no child would have been safe with him ! victoria : that is not for you to decide ! victor : why the hell not ? ! billy : because you are not god ! you can not play with our lives ! you knew adam 's secret , and that makes you just as guilty as he is . victor : listen to me , you hypocrite . i 'm sick and tired of all of your self- righteous bs ! who left the little girl in the car by herself ? ! who allowed her to go play by the roadside by herself at night ? ! who ? ! you ! you look at yourself ! billy : you son of a bitch . victor : what ? ! victoria : oh , god . billy . billy : [ grunting ] victoria : billy ... billy , are you okay ? victoria : billy , are you okay ? are you all right ? is it your ribs ? nikki : i 'm calling 911 . billy : no ! do n't ! i 'm fine . victoria : no , you 're not ! you 're not fine ! why did n't you just tell him about adam when you knew ? victor : and then what ? none of this would have happened ? are you kidding me ? if he had found out that adam had killed his daughter , he would have killed adam ! and then what ? he would have gone to the penitentiary for the rest of his life , and you and johnny would have visited him behind a glass partition ! is that what you want ? ! victoria : this is not about stopping billy . are you kidding me ? this was you -- you wanting to get your hands on connor . that 's all . and delia was just your pawn . you claimed that you loved her as your own grandchild , but that 's not true . you did n't care about her , because she was n't your own flesh and blood . you did n't care . victor : do n't you put words in my mouth . victoria : fine ! i am done . i quit . i quit . i quit you , i quit my job . i quit . victor : then quit ! and good luck to you ! i 'm still your father . victoria : no , no you 're not , not anymore . you 're not . billy : let 's get out of here . victor : now get the hell out of here ! victoria : i should have left years ago ! victor : out ! you 'll come back ! you always do ! colin : that 's a nice doll . i think she gets a bit stuffy in there . cane : what do you want ? why are you really here ? colin : to make peace . is that so hard to believe ? cane : coming from you , yes , 'cause i do n't believe a word that comes out of your mouth . colin : if my savvy , astute wife can give me a second chance , i mean , why ca n't you ? cane : [ scoffs ] you know , frankly i 'm starting to have second thoughts about this whole reconciliation thing with jill . you know , it would n't surprise me right now , as we speak , she 's off talking to someone about unloading a new husband . colin : [ chuckles ] on the contrary . she 's crazy about me . i feel the same way about her . i promised tomorrow night to be on my best behavior at the function . cane : you better be . colin : delia was my wife 's granddaughter . i would never do anything to spoil or desecrate the memory of that beautiful child . cane : 'cause if you do , i swear to you -- no , i swear to god , i will make you pay . if you do anything , i will make you pay , dad , and that 's a promise you can trust . okay ? chelsea : that 's it , mom . enough . i can speak for myself . anita : of course , you can . but lately you have n't been making a whole lot of sense , so mama is going to speak for you . yes , chelsea would be honored to attend the benefit . chelsea : chelsea has no intention of going . lily : okay , whatever you think is best . anita : are you going to embarrass the charity by having a big , old , empty table right smack in the middle of the ballroom ? chelsea : adam already mentioned he was gon na donate his table to the delia project volunteers , because we were gon na be out of the country , remember ? anita : well , fine . then let the riffraff have their seats as long as you 're beside them . lily , honey , thank you so much for dropping by . we 're not gon na keep you , though , okay ? and , uh , chelsea is going to see you tomorrow night . lily : okay . anita : okay . lily : whatever is best -- whatever you decide is fine . anita : thank you . lily : okay . bye . anita : what is the matter with you ? this is a chance for you to start distancing yourself from this man that killed this little girl . no more of this guilt - by - association bunk . you are gon na march into that ballroom with your head held high and show the world that you are not responsible for your husband 's actions . chelsea : mom , i -- anita : yes , and i know that you still love adam , but he is not coming back , dead or alive . so , you better make damn sure that you are not dragged down by his crime . [ scene_break ] kevin : hey , you remember last valentine 's day , what delia was doing before her birthday party ? chloe : [ chuckles ] yeah , she was passing out valentines to all the sick kids at the hospital . kevin : yeah . she said she knew what it was like to be stuck in there for a holiday , how sad and lonely it was , and she did n't want any other kid to have to go through that , especially on a day that was all about love . chloe : she was always thinking about other people . [ chuckles ] how does one so selfless come from me and billy ? kevin : selfless and fearless . she put on her gown and her mask , and she had this big smile on her face , and she never lost it -- not even when she dealing with the kids that were , you know , in really bad shape . she just -- she faced it head - on , 'cause she had a job to do -- making sure that no kid was left behind . [ inhales , exhales raggedly ] chloe : i 'm not as brave as her . kevin : that is not true . it 's not true . a mother lion like you -- you would have walked through fire for her . and going to this benefit tomorrow , chloe , it 's just another version of that . chloe : how am i gon na watch these kids perform , knowing that that was dee 's dream ? kevin : look , it 's incredibly sad and unfair that that dream is never gon na become a reality , but now we get to pass it on to others , and i know that she would love that . she would love that . nick : all right , what makes you think your meds are not working anymore ? sharon : lately , i 've just been a little confused , disoriented . nick : are we talking about this game that you were playing with faith , or is it more serious ? are you seeing cassie again ? sharon : you know what ? i should n't have said anything . i do n't want you to worry . nick : too late for that . sharon : well , there 's really no reason to . i 'm -- you know , i 'm seeing my psychiatrist later this week , and i 'm sure that i 'll just get my dosage adjusted or a new prescription entirely that 'll fix everything . nick : okay . well , why do n't you get someone to watch faith and then let me go with you to your appointment ? i really think you could use some company , and , honestly , sharon , i will do anything you need . you just have to ask . stitch : what are you doing here ? kelly : what do you think ? i 'm here to see if you found billy yet . stitch : victoria seemed to have an idea where he might have taken off to , so crisis averted . no need for you to stick around . kelly : what is that , your passive - aggressive way of telling me to get lost ? stitch : [ scoffs ] the less you show your face , the better . if i figured out you and billy had a one - night stand , someone else might , too -- someone his wife . kelly : why are you so invested in this ? stitch : has it ever occurred to you that i might actually be worried about you ? victoria : hey , look who i found . stitch : ah !

[ scene_break ] jason : i did n't realize you were in so much pain . lulu : you do n't have to sugarcoat it . i 'm a lot stronger than i look right now , so why do n't you just say what you really mean ? you did n't know that i lost my virginity based on a lie , and hit the jackpot and wound up pregnant . and then i decided to have an abortion , rather than live with the consequences of my actions . and now , you 're stuck with me in the middle of nowhere . and i just had a major meltdown , and you 're trying to figure out how to keep me in once piece long enough so that we can go to oakfield and you can find spinelli so that you can get your life back on track . jason : do you ever stop to breathe ? just breathe . ok , look , finding spinelli will be a lot easier with you , but if you 're not up for it , i 'll take -- lulu : do n't you dare -- dare feel sorry for me right now . [ scene_break ] nikolas : colleen , i -- i think i deserve an explanation . i mean , why are you leaving now , instead of after new year 's ? colleen : your son is a very sensitive boy . spencer 's in tune with emotions , his own and other people 's . and as hard as i might try , i know myself . i wo n't be able to hide how sad i am to be leaving him . and since the very last thing i want is to cause that sweet little baby any distress , i -- i think a clean break is best . unless you disagree . nikolas : um -- emily -- emily : yeah ? nikolas : what do you think ? emily : i think colleen has a point , you know ? spencer will probably pick up on how she 's feeling . nikolas : i know , but the holidays are coming and all , and -- emily : yeah , you know what ? i 'm here . between me , you , and alfred , we 'll definitely manage . nikolas : ok , ok . in that case , leave whenever you like , i suppose . colleen : i 'll pack my things . thank you both for being so understanding . nikolas : i -- i still say the timing could have been better . emily : look , nikolas , if colleen 's mood could affect spencer , then it really is for the best . do n't worry . i will happily give you and alfred all the help you need . [ scene_break ] robin : i ca n't believe you agree with patrick . sonny : you do n't think patrick has insight into what drives you ? robin : yeah , about most things , but not about this . see , doctors have a very unfortunate habit of having to label everything . thank you . sonny : yes . robin : like it 's a disease , right ? so i do n't understand why i would have survivor 's guilt when i know perfectly well that stone died because his illness progressed to aids before the drug cocktails were available to him . sonny : but see , you 're talking about what you know in your head . a lot of times , it has nothing to do with what 's going on in your heart . you had a life . you have a life . you have a career . stone did n't . robin : but i do n't feel guilty about being a doctor . sonny : how about being in love with patrick ? [ scene_break ] patrick : once again , you seem to have forgotten the pecking order around here . epiphany : is that so ? patrick : yes , that 's so . epiphany : well , why do n't you remind me ? patrick : my pleasure . i 'm a surgeon ; you 're a nurse . epiphany : which means what ? i 'm supposed to bow down before your god - like presence ? patrick : which means you 're supposed to treat me with some modicum of respect . commenting on my personal life is completely inappropriate . epiphany : let me tell you a little something about on - campus relationships . folks start out floating on air . stealing time in supply closets . then things go south , and those same people start slamming around , barking orders , and running the staff off their feet . patrick : what 's your point ? epiphany : if you and dr. scorpio do n't want comments made about your romance , then do n't play it out in the middle of a hospital for everyone to see . that , surgeon drake , is inappropriate . patrick : in case you 've forgotten , mr. owens is in 712 . noah : i have n't seen epiphany ticked off like that in a while . what 'd you say to her ? patrick : do n't start with me right now . noah : well , let me guess . it has something to do with robin .

[ scene_break ] jason : you always so defensive ? lulu : probably . more so since the abortion , i guess . ahem -- i told my mom about it , finally . after putting it off forever . jason : were you afraid she 'd be mad ? lulu : hmm . yeah , i was afraid she would hate me , that she would be so disappointed that she would n't look at me the same way again . but i was wrong . my mom was wonderful . she could n't have been more supportive . and it felt like this huge weight had been lifted off me , until she went back into herself again . and then , now i have all these questions and doubts , like what if i had just kept my mouth shut ? what if the pressure of finding out about the abortion and having to comfort me made her lose her grip on reality that much sooner ? and then the biggest question of all -- huh -- what if i had done things differently ? like never having slept with dillon in the first place . jason : you can drive yourself crazy with `` what ifs . `` it 's not going to change what happened . lulu : you sound really sure . do n't you ever have any doubts or regret anything that you 've done ? jason : all the time . lulu : what have you done that you 're sorry for ? i mean , really sorry for . not just inconvenienced . not that you 're sorry that spinelli got away or that you 're stuck here with me . i mean , what do you wish that you had done differently , or not done at all . jason : well , that 's the thing -- i do n't -- i do n't wish -- i never saw the point of making things up , then being sad when they did n't happen . lulu : ok , well , that says something fairly interesting about you , but it still does n't answer my question . jason : i want sam to be exonerated . lulu : i 'm not asking about sam ; i 'm asking about you . i mean , you should hear the way the quartermaines talk about you -- mr . confident . if you screw up , it just rolls right off your back . jason : is that what you think ? lulu : well , i -- i would n't know . i 'm just telling you what i 've heard . but if i were to guess , i would say that if anything goes wrong in your world , you 'd probably improvise plan b . and you 've never crashed and burned , so you do n't know how it feels and that 's why you ca n't empathize with me . jason : i do n't know about -- about empathy , but i broke up with sam because i was afraid . lulu : of what ? jason : of watching her die because she loved me . so i walked away . everything that 's happened since has been a direct result of my decision to leave her . so yeah , i understand -- i understand regret . lulu : so how do you get past it and move on ? [ scene_break ] sonny : i -- i know what it feels like to blame yourself for living when someone you love dies . on the one hand , it drives you . you want to be worthy of that person , so you set goals , you strive to achieve them . on the other hand , you feel like you -- like you dodged a bullet , got away with something , you know ? you start feeling like you do n't deserve your own life . so , you start sabotaging the things you worked so hard to achieve . robin : i would never do that . i would never waste the life that i 've been given . sonny : well , after stone died , you were carrying a heavy burden . right ? i mean , it 's -- look , it 's not up to you to live your life as a memorial to stone . i mean , he would n't want that and he would n't want you to beat yourself up because you 're falling in love again . robin : oh . what makes you think that i love patrick ? sonny : oh , i do n't know -- maybe you 've mentioned it once or twice , or -- robin : well , maybe i was wrong . maybe i was just caught up in the moment and i did n't really -- sonny : and there 's always the way you look at patrick . right ? you brighten up when people mention his name . and you -- you defend him , and you praise him . robin : sorry i asked . sonny : but you did , and i 'm not done yet . i -- i know you 're in love with patrick , you know why ? because you 're struggling with this . and you 're feeling guilty when you never did before . 11 years now . can you imagine ? stone 's been dead 11 years , and you 're still hanging on to this . you 're starting to let go , right ? and it terrifies you . [ scene_break ] noah : you know , i -- i know i 'm not your first choice as a confidant , but if you got something on your chest , i 'm here and i actually do care about you , patrick . patrick : you know about stone cates ? noah : yeah . robin 's first love , right ? he died from aids ? patrick : yeah . how am i supposed to compete with that ? i mean , you know , there 's a reason why juliet killed herself . she could live till she was 105 . no man will ever compare to the love she had and lost when she was 14 . and that 's -- that 's robin . stone is permanently enshrined in her memory . perfect and tragic . the minute that memory is threatened , the minute she feels anything real or lasting with me , she freaks out like she 's being unfaithful to the guy . i mean , no disrespect , but he 's been dead for 10 years . noah : maybe you should , you know , see it from her perspective . i mean , she fell in love with this guy , stone , right ? and what happened ? he died . now she 's falling in love again . why do n't you connect the dots ? [ scene_break ] nikolas : it 's just that colleen is spencer 's primary caregiver . and he knows her touch and voice better than anyone 's , do n't you ? emily : except yours . nikolas : i just -- i hope that her sudden disappearance does n't upset him too much . emily : well , of course spencer 's going miss colleen but , i mean , the constants in his life will remain -- you , lucky , lulu , alfred , his routines . nikolas : you . emily : definitely me . you 're going to be just fine , are n't you , sweetheart ? nikolas : yeah . emily : huh ? nikolas : you 're right , you 're right . i 'm glad it worked out this way , because i really did n't have the heart to let her go just before christmas . but i also -- i was n't comfortable with having her stick around after just giving her her notice , because you know how people -- they get careless and weird and -- emily : yeah . nikolas : this is the best solution for everyone , is n't it ? [ emily chuckles ] [ scene_break ] colleen : how 's it going ? oh , do n't worry . you wo n't have to endure captivity much longer . i 'll bet you 're hungry . you know , i almost brought you a last meal , but i decided it was kinder to let things be . from what i 've read , death by dehydration is painful enough . why draw it out ? you 'll be interested to know that i resigned tonight . yeah . effective immediately . i 'll be long gone by the time you draw your last breath . fitting , do n't you think ? the wicked witch ends up a forgotten corpse in a deserted parapet tower . the only thing missing are flying monkeys . oh , you look upset ! well , i ca n't say i blame you . it must be galling to realize how completely you underestimated me . if it makes you feel any better , you 're not the only one . emily , alfred , even nikolas -- none of them gave me the credit or respect i deserve . but that 's ok . they do n't matter anymore . only spencer does . and i 'll always be grateful to you for bringing him to me . i really do adore that child . helena : hmm -- colleen : bye . [ scene_break ] noah : nobody knows better than you how i fell apart completely when your mother died . and even now , it still feels like my loss . though , for the record , i know you lost her , too . patrick : well , let 's not worry about that right now . noah : maybe it was because she died on my table under my hands . i 'll never know for sure . i -- i just would have spiraled out , i think , anyway . just she was that central to my life . anyway , the point is that -- that even now , years later , thinking about feeling that and risking that devastating loss again -- it just -- it just stops me in my tracks . and robin is actively in a relationship with you feeling love again . and she 's taking risks . patrick : so it 's the potential of loss that 's got her all freaked out . noah : yeah , sometimes fear can be pretty debilitating . and it 's often easier just to blow off the thing that 's causing the fear .

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : do you believe in heaven ? jason : uh -- i believe , you know , the good in someone , the love -- it keeps going . elizabeth : well , maybe you 'll find comfort in knowing that alan is in a beautiful place -- with lila -- smiling down upon us when they 're proud of us , and shaking their head in disapproval when they 're not . jason : what 's wrong ? elizabeth : nothing . jason : the -- the baby kicked , did n't it ? elizabeth : mm - hmm . jason : uh -- sorry . i should n't just do that . elizabeth : no , it 's okay . jason : are you sure ? elizabeth : yeah . jason : oh -- elizabeth : huh . jason : that was a strong one . elizabeth : i know . jason : what -- what do you think , boy or girl ? elizabeth : i just want a happy , healthy baby . [ blank ] elizabeth : i should go . i told lucky that i 'd get to the quartermaines ' early so i can spend some time with emily . jason : yeah . yeah , thank you -- thanks for coming by . elizabeth : you 're welcome . [ scene_break ] sonny : you ready to go , buddy ? michael : i guess . i do n't know what i should feel . i talked to jax about it . sonny : yeah ? michael : yeah , he -- he says it 's all right if i 'm sad and it 's okay if i 'm not . sonny : well , that 's good advice . michael : mostly , i feel really sad about the quartermaines . they 're the ones that are feeling really bad . sonny : mm - hmm . carly : that means you have empathy . michael : what 's that ? carly : well , it means you 're a compassionate person -- that you put yourself in other people 's shoes and you can understand how they 're feeling . that 's a very special quality , and not everybody has it . hey -- do you know that you give me something to be proud of every single day ? michael : i do now . sonny : we better get going . [ michael sighs ] michael : i 'm kind of nervous . sonny : you know what , buddy ? that 's normal -- everybody gets nervous -- but you got your mom and i , do n't you ? carly : that 's right . sonny : let 's go . carly : let 's get out of here , come on . sonny : come on . [ scene_break ] bobbie : after we 're all able to get past today , i say we get together and we start planning the upcoming nuptials . lesley : wonderful idea -- focus on something positive . luke : uh - oh . the women have that `` somebody 's going to throw a bouquet `` look in their eyes . [ laughter ] luke : if i were you , i 'd elope . bobbie : no way , jos ' ! this is going to be a major spencer family production . lucky : mom will be here in spirit . i mean , she is -- she 's in this house -- she is this house . lesley : i just realized something . this is the first time that we 've all been here together since we lost laura . lulu : no , mom is not lost . she 's part of us and she 's part of everything that we do , and when we 're all together , she 's here with us . luke : well said , gumdrop . lucky : hey , we better get going . luke : uh -- nikolas ? nikolas : yeah ? luke : have you heard anything from or about helena ? nikolas : disappeared off the face of the earth once again . luke : that 's never a good sign . if she resurfaces and she gives you any grief , i want you to call me . nikolas : wait a minute . let me make sure i understand you -- are you offering to help me ? luke : yeah , i am . i owe you . last november , you were amazing -- handling laura , taking care of lulu , lucky -- and even me . i wo n't forget it . nikolas : all right , then . all right .

[ scene_break ] jax : hey -- are you okay ? alexis : yeah . i do n't know whether it 's emotional or physical . i ca n't tell if it 's just the fact that i 'm at a funeral or it 's the smell of those flowers that are making me a little nauseous . jax : you know , when someone dies , we get hit in the face with our own mortality . alexis : some of us more than others . [ doorbell rings ] jax : cancer 's no match for you . if you do n't know that , i do . michael : i 'm really sorry about grandpa alan . monica : oh , thank you . thank you , michael . and i ca n't tell you how pleased i am that you are here right now . thank you for coming . michael : you 're welcome . sonny : very sorry . carly : we 're very sorry . monica : thank you . please -- dr. russell . russell : losing a spouse is one of the most difficult things we ever have to do . yours is compounded by literally trying to save alan 's life . remember , his heart failed him , not you . epiphany : i 'm so sorry , dr. quartermaine . monica : me , too . thank you . thank you , epiphany . russell : yeah . monica : please ' noah : i -- i admired alan so much , as a doctor and a man . he 'll be really missed . if there 's anything i can do -- monica : thank you . thank you , noah . robin : tracy , mr. quartermaine , i am so sorry . edward : but , you know , alan had a very special place in his heart for you , young lady . robin : the feeling was very mutual . patrick : yeah , i wish i knew him longer . edward : well , thank you both for coming . if you want , you can go on in . robin : thank you . tracy : oh , the order 's wrong . edward : what ? tracy : the drinking needs to come before the service . [ doorbell rings ] tracy : i do n't -- i do n't think i 'm going to make it . i need something to bolster me . not another step . there is no way i 'm going to allow the two people that are responsible for my brother 's death to crash his memorial service . [ organ plays ] skye : i respect the fact that you 're grieving , tracy , but i have every right to be here and i 'm not leaving . edward : this is outrageous . now , i would n't have expected anything from you , but i had a slim hope that maybe you had n't sunk to his level . tracy : `` lie down with dogs , `` as they say . lorenzo : maybe we should go . skye : i loved alan , and he loved me . he forgave me for my part in what happened . tracy : well , that was very generous of him . unfortunately , he was on his deathbed at the time , thanks to you . and , thanks to you , he 's no longer here to defend you , so get out ! ned : what 's going on ? we can hear you all the way inside . edward : interlopers . tracy : oh -- murderers ! skye : family ! tracy : not this one -- not then , not now , not ever . dillon : mom , i know it 's a terrible day and i know you 're upset , but alan considered skye one of his daughters . ned : you may not like it , but he 'd want her to be here . edward : mm - hmm -- because of skye and this miscreant , alan is not here to defend himself , and i want you out now . skye : you 're going to have to throw me out . tracy : oh , that can be arranged . skye : you lay a hand on me and i swear you 'll regret it . edward : you claim to love alan , and you come here uninvited and disrupt his memorial service . how does that show your love ? ned : listen to me , skye did n't come here to cause trouble . i know she came here to pay her respects , so let 's just be big enough and let her . tracy : oh , she can mourn alan all she wants , just not here . [ alice sighs ] alice : clam up , people . today is about mr. alan 's life and the people he loved . now , can any of you honestly deny skye was one of them ? tracy : well , let 's put it to a vote . looks like a tie -- where 's monica ? ned : probably jumping out of the nearest window . edward : i 'll go find her . ned : no ! you wo n't . you 're going to leave her in peace . she 's in agony , and none of us are helping . [ scene_break ] monica : jason -- oh , thank god you 're here . oh , i do n't know how i 'm going to get through this day . oh . jason : you can make it . is there anything i can do for you ? monica : you 're here -- it 's already done . you know , i was thinking , i -- i 'm a doctor and i have to deal with death on a daily basis . and i 've had to find a way to distance myself , to find some emotional detachment so i can handle all of that . just make it about science or whatever . you 'd think , with all of my experience and all of my training , that -- that a death of a loved one would just -- would be a little easier . it is n't . monica : did you know -- no , actually , i bet you did n't know this . this was your father 's favorite chair . it just fit him like a comfortable shoe . he would come in here when he had to be alone , to think , to read , to pout -- lot of pout . sometimes in the middle of the night , i would come down here and he 'd be sound asleep . and i did n't have the heart to wake him , so -- so i would just cover him up , give him a little kiss , and turn off the light . and now this chair is just as empty as this house is and not half as empty as my heart . [ somber music plays ] jason : sadness is in me . it 's in me , too . [ scene_break ] [ doorbell rings ] ned : mother , you have got to try to get yourself under control . tracy : do n't you tell me what to do . you do n't live here anymore , you 're barely a part of this family , and you definitely do n't know what 's been going on . ned : i did n't resign from the quartermaines -- that 's not how it works . the fact remains i am your son , i love you , and i know you 're in a lot of pain , which is why i am trying to convince you that you need to try and grow from this experience instead of staying entrenched in your positions that serve no one , least of all you . tracy : do n't ! no more lectures . i 'll start screaming and i wo n't be able to stop . luke : i do n't do lectures . tracy : oh . luke : how are you holding up ? tracy : not good . i 'm sick and i 'm sad and i 'm so angry , i do n't know what to do with it . i want to just start smashing things , but everybody keeps reminding me today is n't about me . luke : well , then who the hell is it about ? alan 's out of the equation . memorials are about the people who are left behind , and it 's about your grief , and anything you feel , you should express . you want to yell , you want to scream , you want to throw rocks through somebody 's window -- whatever , i 'm available . [ tracy sighs ] [ scene_break ] edward : so how 's emily doing ? lucky : hey . elizabeth : as well as she can . nikolas just went to sit with her , which is good . edward : good . well , you let this child be a reminder that life and death go hand in hand , and one generation takes the place of the next . you better take care of this beautiful young woman because she 's carrying your immortality . lucky : i plan on it . [ scene_break ] lulu : hey . did you get my message ? dillon : yeah . it 's been crazy around here , but i looked at the letter that alan wrote to luke . you 're not going to believe who he fingered as the murderer . tracy : hey , nick and nora , this is neither the time and place , especially in front of your father . go inside . you , stay here . go ! dillon : uh -- [ organ stops ] tracy : now , listen to me . if you keep digging into rick webber 's death , it is going to rear its ugly head and bite you on the butt when you least expect it -- look at me . if you have ever listened to me in your life , listen now . [ doorbell rings ] tracy : let it go . [ scene_break ] luke : ah . all right , nobody wants you here . scott : says who -- somebody 's husband ? bobbie : hey , you two , do n't you dare start -- not today . edward : now , this day is unpleasant enough and it has n't even started yet . bobbie : scott , why do n't you come and sit with me . you two can fight another time . come on . let 's go .

[ organ stops ] [ scene_break ] ned : thank you all for being here . it 's a motley crew , but we 've all come together in unity for one purpose , and that is to honor alan quartermaine and find a way to say goodbye . ned : alan was a complicated man . he did n't fit easily into categories . he was a man with many virtues , and also many flaws . i guess that made him human . at the hospital , he was a compassionate doctor , a respected chief of staff , and a big showoff at the nurses ' ball . and at home -- [ ned sighs ] ned : he was an exasperating brother , a cantankerous and rebellious son , a three - ways father -- frustrated , adopted , surrogate . and he was a grandfather . was n't as involved as he would 've liked . and he was a husband who drove his wife to distraction -- and i 'm being kind . he was a man who wore a lot of hats . a lot of egos and emotions he would juggle . but alan was a master , because there was one thing that he could do better than anybody and that he understood better than anybody , and that was the complexities of love . [ scene_break ] tracy : thank you for taking over the ceremony . you did a beautiful job . none of us could 've done it . can i tell you what i miss most about alan ? he and i could fight like cats and dogs , say the most horrific things to each other , and in the morning we 'd have breakfast like nothing happened . my big brother knew me and accepted me without question or reservation . i do not know where i will ever find that kind of a gift again . ned : hmm . maybe where you least expect it . come here , mother .
