's detectives can put nice roofs over their heads , instead of having to live in freaking hotel rooms forever . and then maybe we 'd be motivated to go out there and find some fricking crime to fight ! frank : what 's going on ? marina : i 'm buying ... we 're ... we 're buying harley 's house , mallet and me . frank : you 're buying it as an investment , right ? i mean , people are going to be renting it from you , right ? marina : as a home , for us to live in together . frank : you better start talking , and you better start talking real fast . marina : okay , now , listen . i think that ... well , we think that we are taking things slowly -- i mean , mostly . nobody wants to rush things . i know that for sure . but ever since we started working on this house , getting it ready and cleaning it up for ... to get ready for us to sell , it 's all we can think about . and then , you guys came over , and we played cards , and we had that stereo dance party , and you guys spilled potato chip crumbs all over the place , and it just felt right ! i mean , it felt like it should be our house , and it should n't go to somebody else , even a family that we like , because ... well , just because . so we really want to do this , and even if we 're the family moving in right now , and it 's just mallet and me and that 's all , i mean , it 's still the right family . but we 're not talking about marriage at all . we are definitely not talking about this . but we both want it so badly , and it means so much to us that we 're taking on second jobs so we can try to scrape up enough money so that we can afford this house ! and i know that we 're going to be tired , and i know it 's just going to mean work , work , work , work , work , and we 're going to have absolutely no life for , like , the longest time , but i just think in the end of the day , it 's really going to be worth it to me , because i get to go home to my house with him .

[ scene_break ] frank : here . marina : what 's this ? frank : around the time your mom and i got divorced , you drew me a picture . it was a picture of your wedding day . it nearly broke my heart . marina : i do n't remember . frank : of course you do n't remember , because you were little . but it was a big wedding . and there was a lot of stick people . and you had really long , red hair that went all the way down to your little stick feet , and your groom was about five feet taller than anybody else around there . i mean , he was even taller than some of the trees . marina : ( laughs ) frank : and his head was bigger than the sun . marina : were you there ? frank : i was standing right next to you , like i said i always would . and here we are . i started saving for your wedding that day . frank : but i told you , mallet and i are n't ... we 're not getting married . frank : no , no , no . i know that . i know that . but when you were talking about the house and all that , in that same picture you drew a little house , and it was a tiny , little house in the background . you said that was going to be my house . i do n't know how your ten - foot husband was going to fit in the door , but ... and you said also that you wanted a party in that house , and that you wanted to have a party every single day in that house . i may not be able to give you everything in that picture , but i can certainly help you get that house . marina : dad ... frank : you take whatever money is in that account , okay ? you should have enough for a pretty good down payment . and you do n't wait for that party . you start that party now . and you start it with a great guy . and that house ... that house is no longer harley 's . it 's yours . marina : thank you . thank you .

[ scene_break ] johnny : ian did come to the house to see claudia . anthony : and you did n't bother to tell me that ? johnny : well , he was a doctor at the hospital . he saw her there and was attracted to her , i suppose . he came back here to hit on her , and came back once more to follow up . anthony : claudia told you that ? johnny : i saw it for myself . anthony : claudia has a terrible temper . as far as i can gather , she was a woman scorned . she and corinthos slept together , and he treated her like a whore . am i right so far ? johnny : okay , but she would n't kill him over that . anthony : why are you defending her ? you think you owe her , since she 's always been protective of you ? i used to worry about claudia 's influence when you were little . i thought she 'd baby you , make you weak . trevor : anthony ? john . you needed to see me ? anthony : yes . you were supposedly keeping an eye on things while i was locked up , so tell me , is there any proof that claudia was behind the shooting of sonny 's brat ? and was johnny involved in it ?

[ scene_break ] trevor : yeah . this time , i think it was claudia 's idea to take sonny out . anthony : it makes sense that she 'd hire some doctor who 's hot for her as the trigger man . johnny : trevor 's undercutting claudia so he can turn you against her , like he did when she was a teenager and you sent her away . anthony : now , you have to remember , with trevor it 's all about gains and losses . so what does he gain by turning me against my daughter ? johnny : trevor ca n't control claudia . it makes her a threat . trevor : your sister is powerless . johnny : she speaks her mind . sees you for the user that you are . trevor : are you saying that i am using anthony right now ? anthony : trevor 's opinion of claudia right on the money . she 's a wild card . johnny : she 's loyal to the family , which is a lot more than we can say about trevor here . he convinced you to send her away years ago . do n't fall for his lies a second time . anthony : johnny ! do n't stretch yourself too thin . you may find there comes a time when you want to protect someone even more than your sister .

[ softly ] gabi . gabi . gabi . gabi , wake up . oh , my god . chad got her too . gabi . gabi . gabi ! marlena : no , you -- you ca n't kill gabi and kate . steve as stefano : why not ? marlena : well ... because gabi is your son 's widow , and kate -- kate was your wife . steve : well , katerina did not marry me for love . i had to blackmail her . i told her i was going to the police with information that she tried to kill daniel jonas . marlena : well , maybe in the beginning , perhaps , but then ... something happened . i - it became real . i was there . i saw it . steve as stefano : nevertheless , katerina betrayed me with ian mccallister because she thought he was going to be the new head of the dimera family . katerina 's loyalty is only to herself . marlena : oh , but to kill her ? steve as stefano : what about poor andre -- why do you think she married him ? that was all about self- preservation , and look what happened to him . marlena : she had nothing to do with that . steve : that woman is my sworn enemy ! marlena : she is my friend , and i forbid you to kill her . according to her daughter , rafe : did you lose him again ? lani : no . eli is there . evan bought a burner phone and made a really long call . rafe : oh , well , he must be talking to orpheus . lani : i would like to confirm that , but i did n't hear a thing . rafe : yeah , well , it 's hard to do when our suspect 's sitting in the middle of town . lani : yeah . the only thing that i can report is that sonny showed up right as i was about to leave . rafe : oh . lani : he might be the one good guy who can get through to evan . rafe : i know . that 's why i sent him there . evan : how 'd you know where to find me ? sonny : i know that you like the coffee at the cafe . evan : the cops sent you , did n't they ? i know i 'm being watched . sonny : yeah . no , please , come on , hey , do n't go ! you know you ca n't go on like this . evan : why not ? david 's my son . mine . i 'm not giving him to rafe or anybody else , and as soon as i get this matter with jordan 's accident settled , he and i are gon na be on our way , so you can just tell rafe or whoever that , you know , david 's in very good hands . sonny : yeah ? is orpheus watching him ? i know he 's your father , and i know that he 's alive . so does rafe . so does all the law enforcement in this country . evan : then you know that david 's grandfather wo n't let anything happen to him . sonny : david 's grandfather is on the top ten most - wanted list . do you really want your son in the middle of a shootout between him and the feds ? evan : my father wo n't let something like that happen . sonny : orpheus wants what 's best for orpheus . evan : that is not true ! he risked everything to go pick up medicine for david . sonny : what kind of medicine ? what 's wrong with david ? steve as stefano : marlena , you are a very loyal person . you 're loyal to people who do n't deserve it , like katerina . she is not the same woman she was when you befriended her . she has n't been for a very long time . marlena : kate and i share a grandson , and we adore him . steve as stefano : well , loyalty is a two - way street . do you think that katerina would stand up for you if she was in your shoes right now ? marlena : i , uh , do n't know . steve as stefano : yes , you do . if she was such a wonderful friend , why did she keep gina 's identity a secret from the police ? why did she lie to roman brady about her affiliation with me ? i 'll tell you why . it 's because you mean nothing to her . she put her own needs first , as she always does . marlena : well , that ... makes sense . steve as stefano : yes . yes , it does , but let me offer you some advice . let go of the past and live in the present . marlena : live in the present ? i do n't know what that means . steve as stefano : we can start right now . [ waltz plays ] may i have this dance ? kate : gabi , wake up ! you have to wake up . gabi : mmm . kate : do you hear me ? gabi ! gabi ! gabi : quit yelling . ah ! oh , my head is killing me . kate : oh , i know , sweetie . come on . gabi : [ groans ] what ... what ... oh , my god ! what happened -- did she faint ? kate , kate , kate . it was chad . it was chad that did this to us . what is wrong with him ? abigail : it 's just so gross . i mean there 's rats in our home ? if it were mice , that would even feel different , but , i mean , rats ? th - they carry diseases , and they bite , and we could all get sick . chad : yes , i 'm well aware of that . abigail : why are you acting so calm right now ? chad : there 's no point in freaking out . abigail : i 'm not freaking out . i -- you know , if you were a little freaked out about it , then maybe i would n't have to be freaking out because i would know that you were gon na do something . chad : i 'm calling the exterminator . abigail : are you ? 'cause you have n't called yet . chad : i will in a second . why do n't you go upstairs and get out of these traveling clothes ? abigail : i have a better idea . why do n't you call someone and seal up those stupid tunnel entrances ? chad : that would be overreacting . abigail : are you saying that i 'm overreacting ? this is ... this is our home . we live here . i do n't want rats or people like your father entering whenever they want . my children live here . chad : they 're my kids too . abigail : i know they 're your kids too . god , why did you say it like that ? chad : like what ? abigail : like that . like you 're , you know , mad at me or something . look , obviously i 'm a little rattled right now about all of this and i mean , even you have to admit that strange stuff has been happening . steve getting in this fight with gabi and giving ... you that ring , which you 're wearing . chad : it 's all i have left from my father . abigail : the man that gave you that is not your father . chad : i know . it 's just a ring , honey . abigail : it 's not just a ring , honey . it 's a symbol , it 's -- it 's -- look , i understand keeping it , but wearing it ? it 's like you 're , i do n't know , marked by him or something . like you 're on his side , and that 's not possible . i mean , you know that , right ? sonny : i have a daughter . i 've been through this before . if david is sick , he has to see a doctor . evan : it 's just a fever . sonny : do you even know how high it is ? come on , evan , or -- evan : you can call me evan . sonny : even before i got to know you , i could tell how much you love that kid . you 've always been good to him . evan : he 's my whole life . i did n't know anything about having a son until i saw him for the first time . i looked into his little face and all of a sudden , i knew why i was here on this earth . sonny : having a child is more than a rush , okay ? he is a responsibility . you need to put david first . you need to do right by him , no matter what that means for you . that is what parenthood is all about , and i am telling you right now i know exactly what orpheus is capable of . evan : he 's not dangerous to david . sonny : you keep saying that , but do you really know him ? level with me right now . can you trust that man with your son ? gabi : i can not believe that chad would do this to me ! kate : okay , well , believe it , because he did the same thing to me . gabi : i mean , i know he hates my guts , he wants me out of the house , out of the company but i never thought he would do something like this ! kate : okay . neither did i . gabi : what the hell is going on with him ? kate : look , when i saw him , steve had just left the ring for him , okay ? a - and he was different . even the words he was saying . it was like it was coming straight out of stefano 's mouth . gabi : what ? kate : and then i find a letter . gabi : what letter ? kate : written by stefano to chad , but before i could read it , chad came back in the room , so i hid it . gabi : okay , and you have this letter ? kate : yes , yes , i saved it . gabi : so why are n't you opening it ? well , can you please read it ? kate : `` my dearest son , i know that i have kept you at a distance since my return , but the time is coming when you must know and understand my plan . until we can meet face - to - face , please believe that i have chosen you as the one who will be by my side as i retake control of my empire '' -- oh , i do n't like the sound of this . gabi : yeah . me neither . abigail : are you gon na answer me ? chad : my father held this family and this business together . abigail : yeah , and he did that while he was doing horrible things to good people . chad : my family 's been pulled apart since he disappeared , and i 'm doing my best to put it back together again . this ring represents his power and his strength . it 's a symbol , and it says that i am meant to carry it on ... and i hope you can understand that . abigail : i am trying to understand . chad : do you remember what it felt like when you found out that your father passed away ? the book that he had finished , right before he passed away . it was coming out soon . i knew it was important to you . that it represented a connection between the two of you . this ring is that for me . there was good with him and i. i know you saw that . abigail : even if your dad is alive and it 's steven brainwashed , he kidnapped marlena and he kidnapped kayla , and he is doing bad things right now , currently , in the present . and i respect that he is your father , and i respect that relationship , but i see him as a threat to us , to our family , to your family and mine . and ... yeah , you 're right . i am freaked out . i 'm freaked out about what is happening in this house . chad : nothing happened to thomas and charlotte while you were away , right ? they 're fine . we 're fine . i do n't want to talk about my father anymore . abigail : okay . chad : i would love to hear about your trip and how jj 's doing and how theo is . you must be really tired . abigail : yeah , i am tired . i 'm pretty beat , actually . look , i did n't mean to fight with you . i 'm sorry , i 'm not trying to be hard on you . i just -- i am tired . i 'm exhausted . i did n't sleep on the plane , and that 's part of it , and i ... i just -- i really missed you . and i missed the kids , and i miss being home . chad : i missed you too . abigail : okay , so ... is thomas still waking up at 5 : 00 a.m. ? chad : to watch the universal kids channel . yeah . abigail : well , he 's almost perfect . chad : yeah . abigail : all right . well , before we are both woken up at 5 : 00 a.m. , the only thing i want to do right now is just go upstairs , take a hot shower , and climb in bed with my loving husband . chad : that sounds excellent . why do n't you go up ? i have some things i need to finish . kate : what the hell do you think stefano 's up to ? gabi : well , we can probably find out if you read the rest of the letter . kate : oh , god . `` i can not stress this enough , my son . as a father , i have learned a hard lesson from the loss of some of your siblings . i know now that my children are the future . andre may be dead and gone . he and i do n't always see eye - to - eye , but we did agree on one thing . the most important thing in life is la famiglia . `` [ sighs ] oh ! i know now that he had read this letter when i first saw chad , because he was standing in front of stefano 's portrait and he was talking to him , and he was wearing the ring . gabi : okay , so you think that chad tried to kill us because he received a letter from `` stefano , `` right ? that 's what you think ? this is life , kate , okay ? not a stephen king novel . kate : you know what ? just listen to me for a second , all right ? he specifically mentions andre , and i know a couple of years ago andre managed to sneak into a hypnosis session that marlena was having with chad . gabi : and how did he do that ? kate : well , you know , i have no idea what the details were , but i do know that he managed to brainwash chad into not wanting to have anything to do with abigail . gabi : oh , that 's right . that 's when he started going after belle . kate : yeah . that 's right , because that 's what andre wanted him to do . and i also know that he planted a trigger word in his brain , and that trigger word was `` la famiglia . `` gabi : oh , and that 's why it 's in the letter . kate : all i know is that the ring and the letter were together and chad was acting different , so i think the reason that he did what he did to us -- because stefano ordered him to do it . [ waltz continues ] steve as stefano : it feels like we 're perfectly in sync . marlena : it does . steve as stefano : this is just like i imagined it would be . everything falling into place , step by step , till there 's nothing between us . not even air . marlena ? marlena , what 's wrong ? what is it ? [ marlena breathing heavily ] sonny : orpheus has a score to settle with people in this town , and that is more important to him than you and david . evan : i do n't know much about that . sonny : because you were n't here when brady was supposed to marry theresa donovan . but your old man was . he had broken out of prison with clyde weston and my cousin xander . and while xander was trying to strangle the bride , your father crashed the wedding , and he held hostages . he actually put a gun to the head of theresa 's sister eve . he shot my cousin jj in cold blood , and if that was n't bad enough , he put kayla and marlena in coffins and tried to burn them alive . so do you see what i mean when i say he has a score to settle with people in this town ? evan : yeah . sonny : i ca n't even believe that you 're his son , because i 've seen you with your son and with my daughter , and i know what you 're like when we 're alone . unless you were just faking that . evan : i wasn't . sonny : then there 's good in you , okay ? so whatever happened between you and jordan -- evan : it was an accident . sonny : oh , okay , okay . being a parent is about putting the needs of your child ahead of your own needs , and i do n't know how to say this , evan , but you come with a lot of baggage . i 'm sorry , but you are not what david needs right now . rafe needs to be raising that child , and deep down , you know it . have you seen rafe lately ? it looks like he has n't slept . he 's been going crazy , since he found out that you took david . he 's a wreck , okay ? and this is not going to end well for you . and if david is sick -- evan : it 's just a virus or something . sonny : how do you know it 's just a virus ? what if this fever spikes , and he needs to go to the er ? do you think orpheus is gon na put your son 's need ahead of his own ? because he is not . your son could be sitting there right now getting sicker and sicker , and you 're doing nothing . are you gon na be able to live with yourself , after that ? as a caricature artist , lani : sonny , hey . thank you so much for what you did for david . sonny : i just hope it turns out okay . orpheus : 17 . 18 . 19 . 20 . ready or not , here i come . hmm . now , where could david be ? huh . hmm . i wonder if i 'll ever find him , unless maybe ... he 's right here ! you 're such a great hide - and - seek player . you 're the best . i think maybe you get that from your granddad . david : yeah . orpheus : i thought i told you to stay away from here . he 's fine . i told you to stay away . evan : i had to see him for myself . how you doing , little buddy ? not so good ? that 's okay . i 'm gon na get you to a doctor , all right ? orpheus : if we go to a doctor , the police 'll have the place surrounded before we even get out . evan : well , it 's too late to worry about that . yeah , okay . hey , you guys can come in now . i got david ! orpheus : are you out of your mind ? evan : actually , i 'm thinking pretty clearly . i love you , little guy . i always will . david : yeah . evan : here you go . rafe : hey , buddy . hey . hey , it 's me . it 's all right . you do n't have to be scared anymore , pal . yeah , i got ya . i got ya . oh , my god . i got you , buddy . abigail : [ laughs ] really ? you have some things to finish ? might i remind you that the love of your life just traveled a very long way to come be with her husband and spend time with you ? chad : i 'll be up there before you 're out of the shower . abigail : really ? this ca n't wait , chad ? chad : the rats . abigail : all right , i can cope with rats for ... the night . jeez , twist your arm . i mean , come on ! kate : it 's all starting to make sense . gabi : okay , then why do n't you walk me through it ? kate : steve manages to brainwash chad and then he orders him to get rid of us , right ? gabi : okay , so if i would n't have walked in when i did , then you -- kate : yeah . i 'd probably be dead right now , and the thing i really do n't understand -- after he knocked you out , why did n't he just finish us off ? gabi : maybe somebody else walked in . kate : maybe , but whatever it was , i 'm getting the feeling that this is only a temporary reprieve . marlena : [ breathing hard ] steve as stefano : what 's wrong , my queen ? marlena : i 'm so sorry . i ca n't do this . i ... uh , i - i think ... if we 're ... having a party , i should go and ... rest . steve as stefano : of course . you and i ... have all the time in the world now . [ dramatic music ] | eli and lani watched evan at the town square . they were getting tired of watching him until he left . they thought he would lead them to david . unfortunately , they ended up losing him . lani called rafe to let him know the bad news . he was n't happy about it at all . sonny went to rafe and told him that orpheus was evan 's father . sonny was under the impression that orpheus was dead . rafe told him about the way clyde met orpheus . he was supposed to get the key for a safety deposit box from jordan . orpheus gave evan the key , and never heard from him again . they believed that orpheus had david with him . they came up with a plan to lure evan out to find david . sonny agreed to meet with evan to get to orpheus and david . chad was prepared to hide kate and gabi 's bodies when abby arrived . chad was n't too thrilled to see her and she noticed . he told her that he was just surprised because she did n't call . they kiss and talk for a little bit before she walked out . chad was ready to hide the bodies . abby saw him by the tunnel doors and wanted to know why he was there . she joked about him stashing his tramps in there . he told her he was looking for his father downstairs . she noticed that he was wearing his father 's ring . he tried to downplay it , but she knew what it meant . he told her how he wanted to keep his family together . he mentioned how jack 's book meant something to her the same way the ring meant something to him . she reminded him how his father kidnapped kayla and marlena . chad did n't want to talk about that anymore . he wanted to hear about her trip . she wanted to go upstairs with him , but he seemed hesitant about it . | <s>[INST] [ suspenseful music ] lani : this is driving me crazy . eli : you ? we 've been here for hours . lani : yeah , and all this creep does is sit on his ass and read the newspaper , and we are not getting any closer to finding david . eli : we 've just got ta be cool . he ca n't sit on his ass forever . ooh , hello . lani : you must be psychic . eli : [ exhales ] finally . chad : now , with these two out of the way , i can help you plan your party to introduce your queen of the night .

'cause you have n't called yet . chad : i will in a second . why do n't you go upstairs and get out of these traveling clothes ? abigail : i have a better idea . why do n't you call someone and seal up those stupid tunnel entrances ? chad : that would be overreacting . abigail : are you saying that i 'm overreacting ? this is ... this is our home . we live here . i do n't want rats or people like your father entering whenever they want . my children live here . chad : they 're my kids too . abigail : i know they 're your kids too . god , why did you say it like that ? chad : like what ? abigail : like that . like you 're , you know , mad at me or something . look , obviously i 'm a little rattled right now about all of this and i mean , even you have to admit that strange stuff has been happening . steve getting in this fight with gabi and giving ... you that ring , which you 're wearing . chad : it 's all i have left from my father . abigail : the man that gave you that is not your father . chad : i know . it 's just a ring , honey . abigail : it 's not just a ring , honey . it 's a symbol , it 's -- it 's -- look , i understand keeping it , but wearing it ? it 's like you 're , i do n't know , marked by him or something . like you 're on his side , and that 's not possible . i mean , you know that , right ? sonny : i have a daughter . i 've been through this before . if david is sick , he has to see a doctor . evan : it 's just a fever . sonny : do you even know how high it is ? come on , evan , or -- evan : you can call me evan . sonny : even before i got to know you , i could tell how much you love that kid . you 've always been good to him . evan : he 's my whole life . i did n't know anything about having a son until i saw him for the first time . i looked into his little face and all of a sudden , i knew why i was here on this earth . sonny : having a child is more than a rush , okay ? he is a responsibility . you need to put david first . you need to do right by him , no matter what that means for you . that is what parenthood is all about , and i am telling you right now i know exactly what orpheus is capable of . evan : he 's not dangerous to david . sonny : you keep saying that , but do you really know him ? level with me right now . can you trust that man with your son ? gabi : i can not believe that chad would do this to me ! kate : okay , well , believe it , because he did the same thing to me . gabi : i mean , i know he hates my guts , he wants me out of the house , out of the company but i never thought he would do something like this ! kate : okay . neither did i . gabi : what the hell is going on with him ? kate : look , when i saw him , steve had just left the ring for him , okay ? a - and he was different . even the words he was saying . it was like it was coming straight out of stefano 's mouth . gabi : what ? kate : and then i find a letter . gabi : what letter ? kate : written by stefano to chad , but before i could read it , chad came back in the room , so i hid it . gabi : okay , and you have this letter ? kate : yes , yes , i saved it . gabi : so why are n't you opening it ? well , can you please read it ? kate : `` my dearest son , i know that i have kept you at a distance since my return , but the time is coming when you must know and understand my plan . until we can meet face - to - face , please believe that i have chosen you as the one who will be by my side as i retake control of my empire '' -- oh , i do n't like the sound of this . gabi : yeah . me neither . abigail : are you gon na answer me ? chad : my father held this family and this business together . abigail : yeah , and he did that while he was doing horrible things to good people . chad : my family 's been pulled apart since he disappeared , and i 'm doing my best to put it back together again . this ring represents his power and his strength . it 's a symbol , and it says that i am meant to carry it on ... and i hope you can understand that . abigail : i am trying to understand . chad : do you remember what it felt like when you found out that your father passed away ? the book that he had finished , right before he passed away . it was coming out soon . i knew it was important to you . that it represented a connection between the two of you . this ring is that for me . there was good with him and i. i know you saw that . abigail : even if your dad is alive and it 's steven brainwashed , he kidnapped marlena and he kidnapped kayla , and he is doing bad things right now , currently , in the present . and i respect that he is your father , and i respect that relationship , but i see him as a threat to us , to our family , to your family and mine . and ... yeah , you 're right . i am freaked out . i 'm freaked out about what is happening in this house . chad : nothing happened to thomas and charlotte while you were away , right ? they 're fine . we 're fine . i do n't want to talk about my father anymore . abigail : okay . chad : i would love to hear about your trip and how jj 's doing and how theo is . you must be really tired . abigail : yeah , i am tired . i 'm pretty beat , actually . look , i did n't mean to fight with you . i 'm sorry , i 'm not trying to be hard on you . i just -- i am tired . i 'm exhausted . i did n't sleep on the plane , and that 's part of it , and i ... i just -- i really missed you . and i missed the kids , and i miss being home . chad : i missed you too . abigail : okay , so ... is thomas still waking up at 5 : 00 a.m. ? chad : to watch the universal kids channel . yeah . abigail : well , he 's almost perfect . chad : yeah . abigail : all right . well , before we are both woken up at 5 : 00 a.m. , the only thing i want to do right now is just go upstairs , take a hot shower , and climb in bed with my loving husband . chad : that sounds excellent . why do n't you go up ? i have some things i need to finish . kate : what the hell do you think stefano 's up to ? gabi : well , we can probably find out if you read the rest of the letter . kate : oh , god . `` i can not stress this enough , my son . as a father , i have learned a hard lesson from the loss of some of your siblings . i know now that my children are the future . andre may be dead and gone . he and i do n't always see eye - to - eye , but we did agree on one thing . the most important thing in life is la famiglia . `` [ sighs ] oh ! i know now that he had read this letter when i first saw chad , because he was standing in front of stefano 's portrait and he was talking to him , and he was wearing the ring . gabi : okay , so you think that chad tried to kill us because he received a letter from `` stefano , `` right ? that 's what you think ? this is life , kate , okay ? not a stephen king novel . kate : you know what ? just listen to me for a second , all right ? he specifically mentions andre , and i know a couple of years ago andre managed to sneak into a hypnosis session that marlena was having with chad . gabi : and how did he do that ? kate : well , you know , i have no idea what the details were , but i do know that he managed to brainwash chad into not wanting to have anything to do with abigail . gabi : oh , that 's right . that 's when he started going after belle . kate : yeah . that 's right , because that 's what andre wanted him to do . and i also know that he planted a trigger word in his brain , and that trigger word was `` la famiglia . `` gabi : oh , and that 's why it 's in the letter . kate : all i know is that the ring and the letter were together and chad was acting different , so i think the reason that he did what he did to us -- because stefano ordered him to do it . [ waltz continues ] steve as stefano : it feels like we 're perfectly in sync . marlena : it does . steve as stefano : this is just like i imagined it would be . everything falling into place , step by step , till there 's nothing between us . not even air . marlena ? marlena , what 's wrong ? what is it ? [ marlena breathing heavily ] sonny : orpheus has a score to settle with people in this town , and that is more important to him than you and david . evan : i do n't know much about that . sonny : because you were n't here when brady was supposed to marry theresa donovan . but your old man was . he had broken out of prison with clyde weston and my cousin xander . and while xander was trying to strangle the bride , your father crashed the wedding , and he held hostages . he actually put a gun to the head of theresa 's sister eve . he shot my cousin jj in cold blood , and if that was n't bad enough , he put kayla and marlena in coffins and tried to burn them alive . so do you see what i mean when i say he has a score to settle with people in this town ? evan : yeah . sonny : i ca n't even believe that you 're his son , because i 've seen you with your son and with my daughter , and i know what you 're like when we 're alone . unless you were just faking that . evan : i wasn't . sonny : then there 's good in you , okay ? so whatever happened between you and jordan -- evan : it was an accident . sonny : oh , okay , okay . being a parent is about putting the needs of your child ahead of your own needs , and i do n't know how to say this , evan , but you come with a lot of baggage . i 'm sorry , but you are not what david needs right now . rafe needs to be raising that child , and deep down , you know it . have you seen rafe lately ? it looks like he has n't slept . he 's been going crazy , since he found out that you took david . he 's a wreck , okay ? and this is not going to end well for you . and if david is sick -- evan : it 's just a virus or something . sonny : how do you know it 's just a virus ? what if this fever spikes , and he needs to go to the er ? do you think orpheus is gon na put your son 's need ahead of his own ? because he is not . your son could be sitting there right now getting sicker and sicker , and you 're doing nothing . are you gon na be able to live with yourself , after that ? as a caricature artist , lani : sonny , hey . thank you so much for what you did for david . sonny : i just hope it turns out okay . orpheus : 17 . 18 . 19 . 20 . ready or not , here i come . hmm . now , where could david be ? huh . hmm . i wonder if i 'll ever find him , unless maybe ... he 's right here ! you 're such a great hide - and - seek player . you 're the best . i think maybe you get that from your granddad . david : yeah . orpheus : i thought i told you to stay away from here . he 's fine . i told you to stay away . evan : i had to see him for myself . how you doing , little buddy ? not so good ? that 's okay . i 'm gon na get you to a doctor , all right ? orpheus : if we go to a doctor , the police 'll have the place surrounded before we even get out . evan : well , it 's too late to worry about that . yeah , okay . hey , you guys can come in now . i got david ! orpheus : are you out of your mind ? evan : actually , i 'm thinking pretty clearly . i love you , little guy . i always will . david : yeah . evan : here you go . rafe : hey , buddy . hey . hey , it 's me . it 's all right . you do n't have to be scared anymore , pal . yeah , i got ya . i got ya . oh , my god . i got you , buddy . abigail : [ laughs ] really ? you have some things to finish ? might i remind you that the love of your life just traveled a very long way to come be with her husband and spend time with you ? chad : i 'll be up there before you 're out of the shower . abigail : really ? this ca n't wait , chad ? chad : the rats . abigail : all right , i can cope with rats for ... the night . jeez , twist your arm . i mean , come on ! kate : it 's all starting to make sense . gabi : okay , then why do n't you walk me through it ? kate : steve manages to brainwash chad and then he orders him to get rid of us , right ? gabi : okay , so if i would n't have walked in when i did , then you -- kate : yeah . i 'd probably be dead right now , and the thing i really do n't understand -- after he knocked you out , why did n't he just finish us off ? gabi : maybe somebody else walked in . kate : maybe , but whatever it was , i 'm getting the feeling that this is only a temporary reprieve . marlena : [ breathing hard ] steve as stefano : what 's wrong , my queen ? marlena : i 'm so sorry . i ca n't do this . i ... uh , i - i think ... if we 're ... having a party , i should go and ... rest . steve as stefano : of course . you and i ... have all the time in the world now .

ashley : what else ? victoria : dad , we 're not talking about brain surgery here . we 're just talking about a meeting to discuss strategy . victor : mm - hmm . in this case , brain surgery may be less mplicated . victoria : why , is there something you know that i do n't ? victor : our fight with jabot has taken an unexpected turn , which means we need to rethink our plans . victoria : fine . why do n't you just tell me what you 're concerned about , and neil and i will take it from there ? victor : i know satine is your baby , but unlike with brash & sassy , this time i 'm gon na be involved , all right ? victoria : what 's going on here ? victor : it is becoming quite clear to me that jabot has no intention of backing down . victoria : did you think that they would ? victor : considering their precarious financial situation , yes , i thought they would . victoria : and your point is ? victor : if they succeed in marketing the tuvia line , we 'd need more product . victoria : so you 're not giving up on satine , are you ? victor : of course not , but i want to expand the product line . victoria : are you serious ? victor : well , think about it for a minute . when we bought satine , they had very limited product . if we now want to compete with jabot , we need to create a variety . victoria : dad , you 're talking about starting from scratch . i mean , research , development , packaging -- it 's a huge amount of work , not to mention the costs . victor : so what ? it 's the best counterattack . victoria : why are you suddenly so worried about jabot ? victor : i 'm not worried about jabot . in fact , if they intend to go up against us , itl l be their undoing , but i 'm in no mood to take a chance , all right ? victoria : fine . victor : let 's go over thisin the morning , but i think i made it clear why i want to be at that meeting . victoria : yeah , i guess you did . victor : something else on your mind ? victoria : yeah , um , i 'm just wondering if i should be reading between the lines here . victor : what do you mean , reading between the lines ? victoria : well , are you trying to send me a message , or what ? victor : a message about what ? victoria : i heard about your offer to nicholas . victor : oh , that . victoria : yeah , that . you want to mentor him to take over the company . that 's kind of a big deal . victor : and that bothers you ? victoria : did you think that it would n't bother me ? i mean , now you want to oversee my division of newman enterprises -- i 'm just wondering what 's going on here , dad , because if you have a problem with my work , you should just tell me . esther : she still has n't moved . what does that mean ? paramedic : ma'am , that 's what we 're here to find out . esther : tell me the truth . is she going to die ? paramedic : she 'll be in good hands . esther : oh , please . you 're looking live at edmonton from our skytracker atop manulife placegood afternoon . i 'm lesley macdonald . coming up at 5 : 30 ... the terrorist alert in the u - s is being boosted again from yellow to orange -- the second - highest level . we 'll explain you why . and lethbridge alderwoman dar heatherington has struck a deal to avoid having a record in the u - s. plus ... local researchers are using mri technology to try to unlock some of the causes of dyslexia in children . those stories and more ... laird : so it 's decided , the cake will be a 3-tier , white chocolate with fresh raspberries . mac : is that everything ?

mac : hey , i like him . billy : he 's a bit intense , is n't he ? mac : he 's an artist , and he really knows his stuff , which is exactly the kind of person we need .

why ? billy : i do n't know . let 's just go . esther : why sns n't i down there ? she had someone downstairs . i should at least have gone down to see if anyone needed anything . jill : oh , stop it , esther , this is n't about you . esther : i can talk to myself if i want to . it 's a free country . if you do n't like it , just go stand over there . god , why did n't she call me down ? i mean , normally , it 's like , `` esther , where the hell are you ? ca n't you see we have company ? `` jill : maybe she did n't want you poisoning her guest with that swill you call coffee . esther : okay , you stay here , i 'm going over there , then . jill : perfect , perfect , perfect . esther : you know , you do n't have to be so mean , jill . mrs. c. could be just -- i - i refuse to think that . i 'm not going there . i refuse . she 's in trouble . jill : i know that . i know that , all right ?

and we all have to go sometime , do n't we ? there are worse ways than keeling over on your own persian carpet . esther : oh , you are incredible . if you have a hangnail , then the whole world has come to an end , but if someone else is dying , well , then that 's just mother nature 's way . you just stay away from me . esther : oh , olivia , what is wrong with her ? i can not believe it . i mean , she -- why is n't she moving ? olivia : well , we -- esther : her heart , is she -- jill : esther , esther , we wo n't learn anything if you do n't shut up , okay ? olivia : we took kay up to radiology for some tests . esther : well , do n't you have any idea what is wrong with her , please ? olivia : i 'd rather not speculate until we can pin something down specifically . esther : well , i -- jill : we appreciate that . esther : oh , come on . i 'd rather have a guess than just not know anything . jill : i told you before , this is not about you . olivia : look , the important thing is you called 9 - 1 - 1 , and she got here quickly . that could make all the difference , so thank you , okay ? you did the right thing . esther : well , of course . i mean , i did n't know what -- jill : you 're welcome , olivia . olivia : i 'll , um , i 'll come back when i have something to report , okay ? esther : oh , doctor , i am begging you , please , do n't let hedidie . please . phyllis : i wish things were n't soomplicated . jack : i know a way to simplify things . you could always come to work at jabot . phyllis : ohh , that ship has sailed , jack . jack : why ?

victor : considering their precarious financial situation , yes , i thought they would . victoria : and your point is ? victor : if they succeed in marketing the tuvia line , we 'd need more product . victoria : so you 're not giving up on satine , are you ? victor : of course not , but i want to expand the product line . victoria : are you serious ? victor : well , think about it for a minute . when we bought satine , they had very limited product . if we now want to compete with jabot , we need to create a variety . victoria : dad , you 're talking about starting from scratch . i mean , research , development , packaging -- it 's a huge amount of work , not to mention the costs . victor : so what ? it 's the best counterattack . victoria : why are you suddenly so worried about jabot ? victor : i 'm not worried about jabot . in fact , if they intend to go up against us , itl l be their undoing , but i 'm in no mood to take a chance , all right ? victoria : fine . victor : let 's go over thisin the morning , but i think i made it clear why i want to be at that meeting . victoria : yeah , i guess you did . victor : something else on your mind ?

victor : a message about what ? victoria : i heard about your offer to nicholas . victor : oh , that . victoria : yeah , that . you want to mentor him to take over the company . that 's kind of a big deal . victor : and that bothers you ? victoria : did you think that it would n't bother me ? i mean , now you want to oversee my division of newman enterprises -- i 'm just wondering what 's going on here , dad , because if you have a problem with my work , you should just tell me . esther : she still has n't moved . what does that mean ? paramedic : ma'am , that 's what we 're here to find out . esther : tell me the truth . is she going to die ? paramedic : she 'll be in good hands . esther : oh , please . you 're looking live at edmonton from our skytracker atop manulife placegood afternoon . i 'm lesley macdonald . coming up at 5 : 30 ... the terrorist alert in the u - s is being boosted again from yellow to orange -- the second - highest level . we 'll explain you why . and lethbridge alderwoman dar heatherington has struck a deal to avoid having a record in the u - s. plus ... local researchers are using mri technology to try to unlock some of the causes of dyslexia in children . those stories and more ... laird : so it 's decided , the cake will be a 3-tier , white chocolate with fresh raspberries . mac : is that everything ?

rafe : nicole ? no , why ? daniel : i just thought maybe ... never mind . it 's -- maybe she 'll tell you . it 's complicated . rafe : yeah . speaking of complicated , um ... daniel : yeah , what is -- what 's going on here ? rafe : well , it 's about you and me and ... gabi . ben : you want to sit ? abigail : sure . ben : i know you do n't feel like talking , but , uh ... can i ask you a question ? it 's kind of personal . abigail : oh , uh , sure . ben : what was it like living in london ? abigail : wow . that -- that is really random . ben : yeah , well , you 're looking at a person who 's never been outside the u.s. , like , not even canada . abigail : oh . ben : london 's near the top of my bucket list . abigail : wait . okay , you 're way too young to have a bucket list . ben : it 's long enough that i need to get on it . abigail : all right , well , uh , what do you want to know about london , besides the fact that you absolutely have to go there ? ben : [ chuckles ] well , i 'm not really interested in the touristy stuff . but when you were there , what were your favorite things to do ? abigail : oh , god , uh ... well , my mom and i would go to the theatre almost every week . it 's not nearly as expensive as it is here . um , with my dad , it was ... the museums -- the tate modern , the v & a. ; i totally sound like a guidebook right now . ben : no . no , no , it 's not like you were doing those things to check them off a list . abigail : no , no , not at all . it 's really great . my dad taught me so much about art and -- and history and shakespeare . i just -- i wish i would 've paid more attention . ben : i heard somewhere that your dad wrote a book . abigail : yeah , he did . he , um ... he wrote a book about his time as a hostage in afghanistan . ben : a hostage ? abigail : yeah . ben : [ scoffs ] abigail : it 's really great that he got a chance to tell his story , you know ? it 's important . and it 's selling really well , which is great , because it means that a lot of people have heard it . ben : yeah . abigail : um ... i do n't know if this is even gon na happen , but a studio is negotiating right now to buy the rights and turn it into a film . ben : [ exhales sharply ] still , that 's awesome ! abigail : yeah . ben : wow . abigail : yeah , my mom is ... is giving all the proceeds to veterans organizations . and it 's just so nice to know that my dad 's legacy is contributing to such an important cause . ben : i bet . your family 's so -- just ... abigail : complicated ? ben : [ chuckles ] every family 's complicated . i was going to say `` accomplished . `` abigail : you know , i do n't know a single thing about your family . ben : [ sighs ] oh , it 's just ... abigail : what ? come on , why do n't you tell me about them ? ben : [ sighs ] ej : listen , i want to know every move my father makes , especially anything that has to do with this upcoming board meeting , okay ? thank you . hey . sami : hey . ej : how you doing ? how did your grandmother take the news about gabi ? sami : oh , not well . she 's upset , obviously . she was so close to gabi . but she knows it 's better than if it had gone to trial . you want to tell me what was going on with that phone call ? ej : i , um -- i just overheard kate having a conversation with my father . sami : [ sighs ] what did she say about me now ? ej : nothing . no , no , no . but , um , i got a feeling this may be a bumpy ride . sami : [ sighs ] sonny : and then nick forced chad into signing a legal agreement stipulating that no one would know gabi hired andrew . will : so how did you find out ? sonny : chad blurted it out . will : so he broke the agreement . sonny : he did n't mean to . and i wanted to tell you so badly , but my dad 's the one that drew up the agreement , and he told me i could n't tell anyone , not even you . will : so you felt like if you told me that you 'd -- sonny : i would be betraying chad and my father . and i swear to you , will , if i thought for one minute this could hurt you by knowing this information , i would 've told you . i never want anything to happen to you . i hope you can forgive me . will : [ chuckles ] of course i do . [ sighs ] so much makes sense now . nick always had this over gabi . whether or not he used it against her ... he always had this control over her ... from the very beginning of their relationship . sonny : yeah . i was angry at gabi for a very long time . but i do know that she felt horrible about what happened to melanie . will : and now she 's admitted it to the police . everyone knows ... and it 's going to get ugly . rafe : you should know that killing nick was n't gabi 's first crime . daniel : okay , you do n't really have to explain this to me . rafe : i do , yeah . you see , gabi got involved in something a while back that was , uh ... it was pretty serious . it was around the time that you and i were helping nicole hide her pregnancy from ej . daniel : uh - huh . rafe : we actually became good friends . daniel : okay . rafe : well ... gabi should 've probably gone to prison for what she did then . daniel : okay , i do n't know why you feel the need to tell me this . rafe : because ... it involved melanie . daniel : what do you mean ? rafe : what i mean is that gabi was responsible for hiring andrew ... the guy that kidnapped melanie . marlena : how are you holding up ? hope : i was his family , and i let him down . marlena : no , you did n't . hope : yes , i did . i was n't there for him , not nearly as much as i should 've been . marlena : you know what ? when tragedy strikes ... we all try to figure out what we could 've one differently ... how maybe one little thing might 've changed ... everything . but that sort of thinking is counterproductive , except when it makes us do things differently in the future . hope : i hope so . marlena : i know so . and it 's the people that do n't have regrets that should really concern us . sami : there is no way i 'm gon na let that woman come between us . ej : hey , i do n't think you need to worry about that . look , what kate wants more than anything else is -- is money , power , and respect . sami : well , good luck to her . ej : i overheard , during this conversation , my father talking about how this upcoming board meeting would be a good opportunity to show who is really in charge at dimera enterprises . sami : you are , ej . stefano had better not try to take that away from you , not after everything that you went through to earn back his trust . ej : i do n't think we need to worry about that . sami : you do n't think ? ej : no . my father and i -- we 're on solid ground . i do n't think he 'd do anything to unsettle that , unless ... sami : unless he is that desperate to get kate back . ben : my family 's boring . abigail : [ chuckles ] you know , somehow i doubt that . ben : we have n't lived in south africa ... and ireland and ... which one did you like the best ? abigail : london . yeah , definitely london , not just because of the city , but because it was also the ... the last place that my whole family was together . ben : hmm . abigail : you did n't really want to ask me about london , though , did you ? ben : what makes you say that ? abigail : because i think that you were doing that to distract me from thinking about everything with nick and gabi . ben : no , no , i just really wanted to -- abigail : ben ... thank you . ben : you 're welcome . but i honestly did want to hear about london . abigail : [ chuckles ] ben : and it was nice to learn a little bit more about you . you 've had a really interesting life . abigail : well , i wish it were a little less interesting , especially the last couple of weeks . ben : i bet . abigail : you know , nick was , uh ... yeah , he was the smartest person i ever knew . and gabi ... [ voice breaking ] she had this beautiful child and ... this bright future ahead of her . it 's just such a waste , you know ? ben : what do you think happened ? abigail : i think that , uh ... one bad decision led to another , and ... it 's crazy how fast everything just spiraled out of control or how easy it is for something like that to happen . ben : abigail , they made a lot of bad choices . abigail : yeah . yeah . ben : hey . look at me . that is not going to happen to you . abigail : what if it already has ? rafe : gabi was desperate to get chad 's attention , and ... chad only had eyes for melanie . daniel : all right , go on . rafe : so ... gabi got this crazy idea to hire andrew to stalk her . um , but as it turns out , andrew was mentally unstable , obviously , and without my sister 's knowledge or consent , he decided to kidnap melanie . and when my sister found out , she -- she did n't say anything . daniel : [ scoffs ] melanie could 've been killed . she almost was . how could gabi -- rafe : i do not know . daniel : well ... i mean , does melanie know about this ? rafe : yeah . gabi told her . daniel : yeah ? when ? rafe : well , not long before melanie left town . um , nick also knew about it . he was using that information to blackmail my sister ... until she shot him . gabi confessed to all of this , which is why it 's all coming out now . daniel : so that 's why melanie was acting so strange when i talked to her on the phone about gabi . i thought she was upset that her -- her great friend was in prison . i mean , why ... why did n't melanie ever tell me what happened ? rafe : well ... melanie agreed to keep quiet about the whole thing . obviously she never forgave my sister for what she 'd done . daniel : oh , of course not . rafe : listen , i - i 'm really sorry . daniel : it 's -- it 's not really your fault . i mean , you must 've been as shocked as i am ... i mean , more , learning all this on top of finding out your little sister shot nick . yeah , well ... i did n't ... i did n't just find out . after gabi told melanie , she ... she told me . and , uh ... i also encouraged gabi not to tell anyone else . sonny : i keep thinking gabi 's gon na come home . will : me too . sonny : you and i talked about having our own place one day , but ... not like this . will : [ scoffs ] no . her not being here , it 's -- it 's strange . sonny : [ sighs ] i keep on thinking , like , `` who 's gon na tell me when the kardashians break up again ? `` will : i think they already did . sonny : see ? will : [ laughs ] sonny : and who 's gon na watch mystery science theater when i 'm up with ari at 2 : 00 a.m. ? will : me . sonny : who 's gon na bake brownies when we get the midnight munchies ? will : you . sonny : [ laughs ] [ sighs ] will : you know , i think i actually miss her yelling at us for leaving the toilet seat up . [ sniffles ] sonny : we really did have a good thing going , did n't we ? will : hey ... we still do . daniel : you 're a cop . how could you advise gabi not to confess what she had done ? rafe : well , i was protecting my little sister . daniel : well , what about my daughter ? she had to deal with all of this on her own . her friend betrayed her , and sh -- and that 's one of the reasons she left town . she said it was because of chad , but i knew -- i knew there was a reason . rafe : well ... daniel : i knew . rafe : you 're right . she was upset with chad . he did not tell her the truth . and she also ... could n't stand the sight of my sister , so ... daniel : and now that gabi 's in prison ... melanie finally decided that she might come visit . i could never really understand why she had stayed away for so long . you know , if -- if you had just told gabi to come forward , take responsibility for what she had done ... my daughter may have never left in the first place . rafe : yeah . yeah , i get that now . listen , i understand that i made a huge mistake . i understand that if gabi would have paid for what she did then , then ... nick would still be alive . listen , daniel , i am sorry , okay ? i am really sorry that i caused you and melanie all this pain . you 've been a great friend to me . listen , i know that this is a lot to ask , okay ? but if you can find it in your heart to forgive me , uh , i 'll ... daniel : i , um ... i - i do n't think i can talk to you about this . i need to speak with my daughter . rafe : well , i understand . sami : i just do n't understand why stefano would try to freeze you out to make kate happy . nothing makes that woman happy . and i do n't understand what he sees in her anyway . do n't ... answer that . she just wants the power of being the lady of the dimera mansion . now that i 'm in her place , it 's making her crazy . ej : i 'm sure it is . sami : she 's gon na do anything to try to stop us from getting married . and now that she has stefano 's ear , she 's trying to undermine your authority at dimera enterprises . [ sighs ] i swear , e -- speak of the devil . ej : whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa . where are you going ? sami : i am going to put that bitch in her place . let 's go ! ben : what are you talking about ? you have n't murdered anyone lately , have you ? abigail : no , but ... ben : [ chuckles ] abigail : i 've definitely made my share of terrible mistakes . ben : really ? then i 'm not sure i should be hanging out with you ... because i have never made a single mistake in my entire life . mm - hmm . abigail : [ laughs ] ben : i 'm kind of perfect . have n't you noticed that ? yeah . [ chuckles ] you think that 's funny ? i 'm serious . abigail , i am a perfect person who always does exactly the right thing at exactly the right time . abigail : really ? ben : it 's a curse . really , yeah . hmm . abigail : sounds awful for you . ben : eh ... wait . you believe me , do n't you ? abigail : yes , of course . i totally believe you . ben : good . well , then trust me when i say this is the right thing to do . daniel : no , melanie , melanie , i just wish you would 've confided in me when you found out . no , of course i understand . yeah , sometimes you just got to ... you got to handle things your own way , that 's all . i 'm just having a hard time wrapping my head around it . yeah . i just ca n't believe gabi would do something like that . look , baby , i am so sorry that you had to go through this . i am . no , it is . you know , it 's hard ... when someone you care about , someone you think you know so well ... just ends up disappointing you . [ cell phone ringing ] rafe : [ sighs ] mama . yeah . yeah , the sentencing 's over . well ... mama , yes , i was just about to call you , actually . the judge accepted the plea . well , it 's , uh , 10 to 20 years , with the possibility of parole . well , no , i told you , this -- mama , this is good news . please , please do n't cry . this is the best that we could 've asked for . no , you ca n't talk to her right now . she 's ... she 's already on the way ... to prison . mama , please , please try not to worry . i promise you that i am gon na check on her . i 'm gon na make sure -- i know that i promised you that i would make sure -- mama ? [ sighs ] way to go . sami : kate , i do n't know what game you 're playing ... kate : [ sighs ] sami : but be prepared to lose , just like you always do . kate : this is exactly why stefano should be running his own company before ej runs it into the ground . when stefano has a problem , he takes care of it , unlike his son ... sami : [ scoffs ] kate : who just goes running to sami . sami : i do n't know what you 're talking about . ej : do you really think that i 'm worried about the likes of you , kate ? kate : why do you think that we 're having this conversation ? why do you think sami 's about to explode ? if you do anything to try to stop our wedding ... kate : i do n't give a damn about your wedding ! sami : really ? then why are you going around telling everyone in salem that ej 's making a mistake marrying me ? kate : why do you care so much about what i say ? sami : [ scoffs ] kate : is that because the two of us know that i 'm right ? you know , from my past experience , and i know stefano would agree , there can be only one mrs. dimera in the mansion . and rest assured ... that wo n't be you . sami : [ scoffs ] | ej overheard kate talking about taking control over dimera enterprises . hope wanted to talk to rafe about gabi 's case . sami thought marlena wanted her to be in prison . hope wanted to talk to rafe about the other crime gabi confessed to . sami explained why she helped gabi . marlena wanted sami to take responsibility for her actions . rafe told hope he would tell daniel what gabi did . marlena kept telling sami that she should take responsibility for what she did , but she refused to because it was nick . sami regretted that nick was pulled out of the river before he died . will was upset that sonny did n't tell him what gabi did to melanie . marlena played the message nick left for sami . sami did n't care if nick was going to change . she was still glad that nick was dead . sami ended up leaving the pub . | <s>[INST] kate : stefano , when are you coming home ? that long ? well , i suppose i could manage . no , no , no , i understand . you have to have all your ducks in a row for that big board meeting . and finally you will show everyone exactly who is boss at dimera enterprises . sonny : here you go , ben . ben : oh , thanks . will : i just filled ben and abigail in on ... [ sniffles ] gabi 's plea bargain . ben : i 'll start unpacking that shipment . will : are you upset that the judge accepted gabi 's deal ? i know julie wanted gabi to go to prison for the rest of her life . abigail : no , i - i would n't want that . but ... nick is still family , and ... you know , gabi is not the friend that i thought she was , especially after i found out what she did to melanie . will : what did she do to melanie ? daniel : [ sighs ] ugh . [ sighs ] jennifer : if i had n't ... told eric the truth , i honestly believe that he would have never found out . daniel : i thought you knew me ... so well . and now i 'm not so sure you know me at all . jordan : rafe , i 'm so sorry . i know how hard it must 've been to have to say good - bye to gabi . rafe : i let her down . jordan : rafe ... rafe : just like i let my sister ari down . jordan : you did n't . rafe : you know , you keep saying that , but you were n't here . you have no idea . hope : sorry to keep you waiting . rafe : oh . hope : i was briefing the mayor . rafe : yeah , so what 'd you want to talk to me about ? hope : gabi 's case . rafe : i thought the case was closed . hope : i 'm afraid there 's still one last issue we need to deal with . sami : mom . marlena : sami . sami : i was just filling grandma in on gabi 's situation . she -- marlena : julie told me that the judge had accepted the plea bargain , that ... gabi is headed off to prison . sami : let me guess ... you think i belong in the cell next to her . rafe : looks like this is gon na take a while , so ... you should probably get going . jordan : oh , i do n't mind staying . rafe : no , i appreciate that , but ... this is something i should -- i should deal with on my own . jordan : okay . rafe : i 'll call you later . jordan : sure . rafe : so ... you were saying ? hope : rafe , there 's something you need to know . when gabi confessed to nick 's murder , she admitted to committing another crime ... against melanie jonas . abigail : gabi hired this guy andrew to pretend to stalk her to get chad 's attention . what she did n't know was that andrew decided on his own to kidnap melanie . will : what ? abigail : yeah , and when gabi found out , she did n't say anything because she was too afraid of getting caught . will , i 'm sorry . i - i thought that you would know this . gabi said it was gon na come out in court . will : i had no idea . abigail : gabi ... [ scoffs ] i mean , if she would have just come forward , then maybe none of this stuff would 've happened and nick could still be alive , and i 'm kicking myself because ... will : for what ? you did n't know . abigail : no , but i - i knew that something was n't right . and if i would 've just paid more attention or maybe just asked a few more questions , then ... i do n't know -- things could be a whole lot different now . sonny : abby ... do n't do that to yourself . we all could 've made different decisions . [ arianna fusses ] will : she must be hungry . we should get her home . sonny : yeah , let 's get out of here . will : [ clears throat ] abigail : okay , well , i 'll talk to you guys soon . will : see you later . abigail : [ sighs ] kate : i ca n't wait to see you too . bye . [ chuckles ] i 'm so glad i ran into you . ej : mm , i 'm sure . since when ? kate : well , i wanted to thank you for getting gabi such a decent plea bargain . ej : i think we can dispense of the pleasantries , do n't you , kate ? why do n't you tell me what it is you 're really up to ? marlena : that was an interesting thing to say . do you think you deserve to be in prison ? sami : no . no , i do n't . but i know how judgmental you 've been about what happened , just like you are about everything . marlena : what happened was you and kate tried to murder nick by throwing him into the river , hoping that he would drown . were you expecting a pat on the back for that ? sami : no . after all , i failed . who knew a dead man would be such a good swimmer ? marlena : oh . sami : mom , i was helping gabi . and i know gabi would say the same thing too . marlena : she does n't blame you or kate . sami : but you do . marlena : i would like to see you take responsibility for your actions . sami : my god ! you want me to turn myself into the police . you think ... i should go to prison . new hershey 's spreads . daniel : okay , melanie , melanie , i hate to lay this on you now when there 's nothing much you can do to help gabi , but ... i know you guys are good friends and ... well , why did n't you just tell me this was a bad time ? i ... no , i can talk to you later . it 's fi -- really ? you want to come visit ? well , if i 'm surprised , it 's because you always come up with a reason not to visit . i -- no , it would be great to see you right now . no ! no , no , no , no . everything 's fine . no , i just -- just , you know , miss my little girl , that 's all . okay . all right , bye . all right , bye , sweetheart . [ sighs ] [ cell phone vibrating ] ben : hey . i heard gabi 's plea bargain was approved . jordan : yeah . ben : how 'd things go with rafe ? jordan : it was a mistake ... going to the courthouse . he needed more space . ben : [ sighs ] he 's not upset with you . it 's the situation . you ca n't take it personally . look , he may need space , but he also needs you . you 've got to keep letting him know that you 're there for him . jordan : yeah , i guess . ben : hey , my shift 's almost done . you want me to come keep you company ? jordan : uh , no , it 's okay . i 'm fine . but thank you for being such a great brother . ben : [ chuckles ] hey , i learned from the best . we 'll talk soon , okay ? jordan : yeah , soon . hope : one of the guys she hired went rogue and kidnapped melanie . she never came forward with any information about that . rafe : right . listen , hope , there 's -- hope : stop . none of this matters now . i consider this case closed . the reason i 'm telling you this is because it was a part of gabi 's confession ... and also because it 's going to become public knowledge very soon . as far as melanie , apparently she found out about it before she left salem ... and decided , for her own reasons , to keep it to herself . rafe : yeah . hope : but there are some people that need to be filled in . rafe : before they read it in the paper . hope : exactly . like maggie and daniel . rafe : yeah . yeah . listen , if it 's all right with you ... i 'd like to be the one that tells daniel . hope : i thought you would . rafe : [ sighs ] well ... thanks . yeah . hope : rafe ? rafe : uh - huh ? hope : it does n't do any good to blame yourself for what happened to gabi . rafe : yeah . right . marlena : no . i do n't want to see you go to prison . sami : then what do you want ? marlena : i want to see you show some regret for what you did to nick fallon ... because it was just about six months after you shot bernardi . sami : to save rafe . you act like you want me to apologize for my whole life . marlena : you know what i want ? i want you to have a wonderful life ... same as you want for your children . and i do n't want to see you end up like kate . sami : oh , well , that makes two of us . marlena : then please show a little remorse for what you 've done . sami : no ... i wo n't ... because we 're talking about nick fallon . frankly , the only regret i have is that he was pulled out of that river before he died . ben : hey . how 's it going ? abigail : it 's , uh ... it 's going . ben : my shift just ended . want to go for a walk ? abigail : you know , i 'm not sure i 'd be such great company right now . ben : well , if you 're not in the mood to talk , it 's okay , but it might be nice to get out and enjoy the day . abigail : yeah , you know what ? um ... yes . let 's go . will : you know , i thought at this point , nothing would surprise me , but ... [ sniffles ] finding out that gabi was involved in melanie 's kidnapping , that ... that threw me . that 's crazy , right ? sonny : will ... uh , there 's something i have to tell you . will : you knew , did n't you ? [ sighs ] i knew it . there was always something about gabi that you did n't like . and what have we been talking about -- no more secrets between us ? you 're my husband . we 're supposed to share everything with each other . sonny : i 'm sorry , will , not this time . kate : i do n't know what you 're talking about . oh ... are you talking about the phone call with your father ? [ scoffs ] were you eavesdropping on me ? ej : no , i could hear your conversation from the other side of the square . kate : oh . well , then why are you suspicious ? we were just catching up . ej : you were having a conversation about dimera enterprises . kate : well , your father always has appreciated my business sense . ej : i had always thought it was , uh ... rather different assets that my father appreciated . kate : you know , i thought you would appreciate that your father and i are getting along . i mean , are n't you the one who pressured me to forgive him ? are n't you the one who told me you had never seen stefano happier than when he was with me , or am i just imagining those conversations ? ej : well , was i imagining when you said you would never forgive him in a million years ? i mean , after what you 've been through , the idea of you two actually ... kate : your father and i are not the kind of people who hold grudges . ej : [ laughs ] right . kate : you should learn from that . marlena : you ca n't mean that . sami : i absolutely do . nick fallon almost got will killed . he tried to take arianna away from her home , her father . and he was trying to do it again . marlena : he was a human being . he had family , and nobody had the right to kill him . sami : he did n't have the right to do what he was doing . do you even have any idea how sick and twisted he was ? marlena : i do . and so did he . he was asking for help . listen to this . nick : hi , uh , marlena . it 's nick fallon . um ... sami : look , i know , okay ? i heard it . nick : julie suggested that i call you . marlena : keep listening . nick : she thought you might be able to recommend somebody for me to see , you know , professionally -- professionally . um ... you know , i just -- i do n't -- i do n't think -- i do n't think i can go on like this . and ... um , i just got to shut it all down , you know ? um , it 's -- it 's time . i know that i 'm hurting people . i know that . and i 'm hurting me . i 'm hurting myself , and ... and i do n't want to do that . and i can -- i can change it . [ sighs ] it feels really good just actually saying that , you know , like -- like -- like , maybe there 's hope . marlena : okay . can you hear the desperation , the torment in his voice ? but there was hope ... because there is always hope . he needed help . he was trying to get it , but he never had the chance . sami : what are you talking about ? he had plenty of chances , and he blew them all . what were the rest of us supposed to do -- just sit around letting him torture us while he figured out that he needed to make a change ? a change that was , by the way , never going to happen . i 'm sorry , mom . no way . i know what you want to hear me say right now , but i 'm not going to . i am glad that monster is dead ... for good this time . [ door slams ] marlena : [ sighs ] daniel : rafe . rafe : yeah , listen , sorry to show up without calling . daniel : no . no worries . it 's great to see you . how 'd it go with gabi this morning ? come on in . rafe : uh ... okay . daniel : hey , look , i , uh -- you know , i left you a message . if you need me to write a letter or if there 's any way i can help -- rafe : no , no , no , thanks . thanks , but , um ... the judge already okayed gabi 's plea agreement . she 's on her way to prison , so ... daniel : i 'm sorry about that . i mean ... i mean , it is the best - case scenario . i mean , gabi -- she was a good kid who just ... got caught up in a terrible situation . rafe : yeah . well , there 's actually something else that i need to talk to you about . daniel : did nicole call you ? rafe : nicole ? no , why ? daniel : i just thought maybe ... never mind . it 's -- maybe she 'll tell you . it 's complicated . rafe : yeah . speaking of complicated , um ... daniel : yeah , what is -- what 's going on here ? rafe : well , it 's about you and me and ... gabi . ben : you want to sit ? abigail : sure . ben : i know you do n't feel like talking , but , uh ... can i ask you a question ? it 's kind of personal . abigail : oh , uh , sure . ben : what was it like living in london ? abigail : wow . that -- that is really random . ben : yeah , well , you 're looking at a person who 's never been outside the u.s. , like , not even canada . abigail : oh . ben : london 's near the top of my bucket list . abigail : wait . okay , you 're way too young to have a bucket list . ben : it 's long enough that i need to get on it . abigail : all right , well , uh , what do you want to know about london , besides the fact that you absolutely have to go there ? ben : [ chuckles ] well , i 'm not really interested in the touristy stuff . but when you were there , what were your favorite things to do ? abigail : oh , god , uh ... well , my mom and i would go to the theatre almost every week . it 's not nearly as expensive as it is here . um , with my dad , it was ... the museums -- the tate modern , the v & a. ; i totally sound like a guidebook right now . ben : no . no , no , it 's not like you were doing those things to check them off a list . abigail : no , no , not at all . it 's really great . my dad taught me so much about art and -- and history and shakespeare . i just -- i wish i would 've paid more attention . ben : i heard somewhere that your dad wrote a book . abigail : yeah , he did . he , um ... he wrote a book about his time as a hostage in afghanistan . ben : a hostage ? abigail : yeah . ben : [ scoffs ] abigail : it 's really great that he got a chance to tell his story , you know ? it 's important . and it 's selling really well , which is great , because it means that a lot of people have heard it . ben : yeah . abigail : um ... i do n't know if this is even gon na happen , but a studio is negotiating right now to buy the rights and turn it into a film . ben : [ exhales sharply ] still , that 's awesome ! abigail : yeah . ben : wow . abigail : yeah , my mom is ... is giving all the proceeds to veterans organizations . and it 's just so nice to know that my dad 's legacy is contributing to such an important cause . ben : i bet . your family 's so -- just ... abigail : complicated ? ben : [ chuckles ] every family 's complicated . i was going to say `` accomplished . `` abigail : you know , i do n't know a single thing about your family . ben : [ sighs ] oh , it 's just ... abigail : what ? come on , why do n't you tell me about them ? ben : [ sighs ] ej : listen , i want to know every move my father makes , especially anything that has to do with this upcoming board meeting , okay ? thank you . hey . sami : hey . ej : how you doing ? how did your grandmother take the news about gabi ? sami : oh , not well . she 's upset , obviously . she was so close to gabi . but she knows it 's better than if it had gone to trial . you want to tell me what was going on with that phone call ? ej : i , um -- i just overheard kate having a conversation with my father . sami : [ sighs ] what did she say about me now ? ej : nothing . no , no , no . but , um , i got a feeling this may be a bumpy ride . sami : [ sighs ] sonny : and then nick forced chad into signing a legal agreement stipulating that no one would know gabi hired andrew . will : so how did you find out ? sonny : chad blurted it out . will : so he broke the agreement . sonny : he did n't mean to . and i wanted to tell you so badly , but my dad 's the one that drew up the agreement , and he told me i could n't tell anyone , not even you . will : so you felt like if you told me that you 'd -- sonny : i would be betraying chad and my father . and i swear to you , will , if i thought for one minute this could hurt you by knowing this information , i would 've told you . i never want anything to happen to you . i hope you can forgive me . will : [ chuckles ] of course i do . [ sighs ] so much makes sense now . nick always had this over gabi . whether or not he used it against her ... he always had this control over her ... from the very beginning of their relationship . sonny : yeah . i was angry at gabi for a very long time . but i do know that she felt horrible about what happened to melanie . will : and now she 's admitted it to the police . everyone knows ... and it 's going to get ugly . rafe : you should know that killing nick was n't gabi 's first crime . daniel : okay , you do n't really have to explain this to me . rafe : i do , yeah . you see , gabi got involved in something a while back that was , uh ... it was pretty serious . it was around the time that you and i were helping nicole hide her pregnancy from ej . daniel : uh - huh . rafe : we actually became good friends . daniel : okay . rafe : well ... gabi should 've probably gone to prison for what she did then . daniel : okay , i do n't know why you feel the need to tell me this . rafe : because ... it involved melanie . daniel : what do you mean ? rafe : what i mean is that gabi was responsible for hiring andrew ... the guy that kidnapped melanie . marlena : how are you holding up ? hope : i was his family , and i let him down . marlena : no , you did n't . hope : yes , i did . i was n't there for him , not nearly as much as i should 've been . marlena : you know what ? when tragedy strikes ... we all try to figure out what we could 've one differently ... how maybe one little thing might 've changed ... everything . but that sort of thinking is counterproductive , except when it makes us do things differently in the future . hope : i hope so . marlena : i know so . and it 's the people that do n't have regrets that should really concern us . sami : there is no way i 'm gon na let that woman come between us . ej : hey , i do n't think you need to worry about that . look , what kate wants more than anything else is -- is money , power , and respect . sami : well , good luck to her . ej : i overheard , during this conversation , my father talking about how this upcoming board meeting would be a good opportunity to show who is really in charge at dimera enterprises . sami : you are , ej . stefano had better not try to take that away from you , not after everything that you went through to earn back his trust . ej : i do n't think we need to worry about that . sami : you do n't think ? ej : no . my father and i -- we 're on solid ground . i do n't think he 'd do anything to unsettle that , unless ... sami : unless he is that desperate to get kate back . ben : my family 's boring . abigail : [ chuckles ] you know , somehow i doubt that . ben : we have n't lived in south africa ... and ireland and ... which one did you like the best ? abigail : london . yeah , definitely london , not just because of the city , but because it was also the ... the last place that my whole family was together . ben : hmm . abigail : you did n't really want to ask me about london , though , did you ? ben : what makes you say that ? abigail : because i think that you were doing that to distract me from thinking about everything with nick and gabi . ben : no , no , i just really wanted to -- abigail : ben ... thank you . ben : you 're welcome . but i honestly did want to hear about london . abigail : [ chuckles ] ben : and it was nice to learn a little bit more about you . you 've had a really interesting life . abigail : well , i wish it were a little less interesting , especially the last couple of weeks . ben : i bet . abigail : you know , nick was , uh ... yeah , he was the smartest person i ever knew . and gabi ... [ voice breaking ] she had this beautiful child and ... this bright future ahead of her . it 's just such a waste , you know ? ben : what do you think happened ? abigail : i think that , uh ... one bad decision led to another , and ... it 's crazy how fast everything just spiraled out of control or how easy it is for something like that to happen . ben : abigail , they made a lot of bad choices . abigail : yeah . yeah . ben : hey . look at me . that is not going to happen to you . abigail : what if it already has ? rafe : gabi was desperate to get chad 's attention , and ... chad only had eyes for melanie . daniel : all right , go on . rafe : so ... gabi got this crazy idea to hire andrew to stalk her . um , but as it turns out , andrew was mentally unstable , obviously , and without my sister 's knowledge or consent , he decided to kidnap melanie . and when my sister found out , she -- she did n't say anything . daniel : [ scoffs ] melanie could 've been killed . she almost was . how could gabi -- rafe : i do not know . daniel : well ... i mean , does melanie know about this ? rafe : yeah . gabi told her . daniel : yeah ? when ? rafe : well , not long before melanie left town . um , nick also knew about it . he was using that information to blackmail my sister ... until she shot him . gabi confessed to all of this , which is why it 's all coming out now . daniel : so that 's why melanie was acting so strange when i talked to her on the phone about gabi . i thought she was upset that her -- her great friend was in prison . i mean , why ... why did n't melanie ever tell me what happened ? rafe : well ... melanie agreed to keep quiet about the whole thing . obviously she never forgave my sister for what she 'd done . daniel : oh , of course not . rafe : listen , i - i 'm really sorry . daniel : it 's -- it 's not really your fault . i mean , you must 've been as shocked as i am ... i mean , more , learning all this on top of finding out your little sister shot nick . yeah , well ... i did n't ... i did n't just find out . after gabi told melanie , she ... she told me . and , uh ... i also encouraged gabi not to tell anyone else . sonny : i keep thinking gabi 's gon na come home . will : me too . sonny : you and i talked about having our own place one day , but ... not like this . will : [ scoffs ] no . her not being here , it 's -- it 's strange . sonny : [ sighs ] i keep on thinking , like , `` who 's gon na tell me when the kardashians break up again ? `` will : i think they already did . sonny : see ? will : [ laughs ] sonny : and who 's gon na watch mystery science theater when i 'm up with ari at 2 : 00 a.m. ? will : me . sonny : who 's gon na bake brownies when we get the midnight munchies ? will : you . sonny : [ laughs ] [ sighs ] will : you know , i think i actually miss her yelling at us for leaving the toilet seat up . [ sniffles ] sonny : we really did have a good thing going , did n't we ? will : hey ... we still do . daniel : you 're a cop . how could you advise gabi not to confess what she had done ? rafe : well , i was protecting my little sister . daniel : well , what about my daughter ? she had to deal with all of this on her own . her friend betrayed her , and sh -- and that 's one of the reasons she left town . she said it was because of chad , but i knew -- i knew there was a reason . rafe : well ... daniel : i knew . rafe : you 're right . she was upset with chad . he did not tell her the truth . and she also ... could n't stand the sight of my sister , so ... daniel : and now that gabi 's in prison ... melanie finally decided that she might come visit . i could never really understand why she had stayed away for so long . you know , if -- if you had just told gabi to come forward , take responsibility for what she had done ... my daughter may have never left in the first place . rafe : yeah . yeah , i get that now . listen , i understand that i made a huge mistake . i understand that if gabi would have paid for what she did then , then ... nick would still be alive . listen , daniel , i am sorry , okay ? i am really sorry that i caused you and melanie all this pain . you 've been a great friend to me . listen , i know that this is a lot to ask , okay ? but if you can find it in your heart to forgive me , uh , i 'll ... daniel : i , um ... i - i do n't think i can talk to you about this . i need to speak with my daughter . rafe : well , i understand . sami : i just do n't understand why stefano would try to freeze you out to make kate happy . nothing makes that woman happy . and i do n't understand what he sees in her anyway . do n't ... answer that . she just wants the power of being the lady of the dimera mansion . now that i 'm in her place , it 's making her crazy . ej : i 'm sure it is . sami : she 's gon na do anything to try to stop us from getting married . and now that she has stefano 's ear , she 's trying to undermine your authority at dimera enterprises . [ sighs ] i swear , e -- speak of the devil . ej : whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa . where are you going ? sami : i am going to put that bitch in her place . let 's go ! ben : what are you talking about ? you have n't murdered anyone lately , have you ? abigail : no , but ... ben : [ chuckles ] abigail : i 've definitely made my share of terrible mistakes . ben : really ? then i 'm not sure i should be hanging out with you ... because i have never made a single mistake in my entire life . mm - hmm . abigail : [ laughs ] ben : i 'm kind of perfect . have n't you noticed that ? yeah . [ chuckles ] you think that 's funny ? i 'm serious . abigail , i am a perfect person who always does exactly the right thing at exactly the right time . abigail : really ? ben : it 's a curse . really , yeah . hmm . abigail : sounds awful for you . ben : eh ... wait . you believe me , do n't you ? abigail : yes , of course . i totally believe you . ben : good . well , then trust me when i say this is the right thing to do . daniel : no , melanie , melanie , i just wish you would 've confided in me when you found out . no , of course i understand . yeah , sometimes you just got to ... you got to handle things your own way , that 's all . i 'm just having a hard time wrapping my head around it . yeah . i just ca n't believe gabi would do something like that . look , baby , i am so sorry that you had to go through this . i am . no , it is . you know , it 's hard ... when someone you care about , someone you think you know so well ... just ends up disappointing you . [ cell phone ringing ] rafe : [ sighs ] mama . yeah . yeah , the sentencing 's over . well ... mama , yes , i was just about to call you , actually . the judge accepted the plea . well , it 's , uh , 10 to 20 years , with the possibility of parole . well , no , i told you , this -- mama , this is good news . please , please do n't cry . this is the best that we could 've asked for . no , you ca n't talk to her right now . she 's ... she 's already on the way ... to prison . mama , please , please try not to worry . i promise you that i am gon na check on her . i 'm gon na make sure -- i know that i promised you that i would make sure -- mama ? [ sighs ] way to go . sami : kate , i do n't know what game you 're playing ... kate : [ sighs ] sami : but be prepared to lose , just like you always do . kate : this is exactly why stefano should be running his own company before ej runs it into the ground . when stefano has a problem , he takes care of it , unlike his son ... sami : [ scoffs ] kate : who just goes running to sami . sami : i do n't know what you 're talking about . ej : do you really think that i 'm worried about the likes of you , kate ? kate : why do you think that we 're having this conversation ? why do you think sami 's about to explode ? if you do anything to try to stop our wedding ... kate : i do n't give a damn about your wedding ! sami : really ? then why are you going around telling everyone in salem that ej 's making a mistake marrying me ? kate : why do you care so much about what i say ? sami : [ scoffs ] kate : is that because the two of us know that i 'm right ? you know , from my past experience , and i know stefano would agree , there can be only one mrs. dimera in the mansion . and rest assured ... that wo n't be you . sami : [ scoffs ]Summarize.[/INST]ej overheard kate talking about taking control over dimera enterprises . hope wanted to talk to rafe about gabi 's case . sami thought marlena wanted her to be in prison . hope wanted to talk to rafe about the other crime gabi confessed to . sami explained why she helped gabi . marlena wanted sami to take responsibility for her actions . rafe told hope he would tell daniel what gabi did . marlena kept telling sami that she should take responsibility for what she did , but she refused to because it was nick . sami regretted that nick was pulled out of the river before he died . will was upset that sonny did n't tell him what gabi did to melanie . marlena played the message nick left for sami . sami did n't care if nick was going to change . she was still glad that nick was dead . sami ended up leaving the pub .</s> | 7,705 |

( scoffs ) easy or popular ones . that 's why we respect you so much , even if you are blonde and gorgeous . hope : ( sighs ) beverly : we also respect you because of how you handle yourself , even when things get really hard , you know , like they are for you right now . hope : ( sighs ) i was so ready to marry liam . and we were so close to making that happen . but then it -- it all just unraveled , and the more i tied to straighten it out , the -- the more complicated things got . so i had to accept what was -- liam 's marriage to steffy , that he was moving on , and -- and i did n't think that i could do that . but thomas did . i mean , that 's -- that 's why he whisked me off to cabo , only we were n't the only ones there . ( laughs ) liam and steffy were there , too . beverly : ( scoffs ) hope : and you know what ? thomas and steffy knew that , and they kept it from us . beverly : yeah . hope : ( sighs ) beverly : they were ... probably just afraid of what would happen if ... you know . hope : i know liam still loves me as much as i love him . but i also know that he loves his wife . ( sighs ) and because of her condition , he 's -- he 's tied to her . my aunt katie thinks that there may be more going on , but i do n't know . i do n't know . i ... all i know is that every day liam is with steffy , the chances of them staying together increases , and i do n't think there 's anything that can change that ... at least , i - i - i do n't see what could . [ scene_break ] dr. montgomery : the headaches ? steffy : they 're pretty much gone . liam : i mean , that 's -- that 's a good sign , right , doc ? steffy : yeah . dr. montgomery : yeah . well , we 'll do the follow - up m.r.i . and see what 's really going on in there , and then we 'll have a better idea of where -- where things stand . [ scene_break ] katie : steffy and liam still are n't home ? bill : nope . katie : and you do n't know where they went ? bill : well , actually , i do . they went to the hospital . katie : really ? why ? bill : liam ordered another m.r.i . for his wife . he wants to make sure steffy makes a full recovery . katie : you must be very proud of him for that . bill : i want this marriage to survive , katie . of course , you know that . katie : yeah , i do . although , until today , do n't realize just how much . you know to know where i 've been ? bill : i was trying to reach you on your cell , but it went to voicemail . katie : you were looking for me . why ? bill : you know why . you saw the folder on alison 's desk , and you just could n't resist , could you ? katie : so how does this work ? i mean , you 're in a hospital in cabo . how did you get the doctor to go along with it ? how much did it cost ? bill : how much did it cost ? i do n't know what you 're talking about , katie . katie : i showed the m.r.i . to my doctor , and she confirmed that there is a blood clot . bill : well , of course she confirmed there 's a blood clot . two other doctors confirmed it . how many confirmations do you need ? katie : what do i need ? the truth . do you even know what that is anymore ? you 've been so busy trying to cover your tracks , but you did n't cover them well enough . the m.r.i . scan that you 're trying to pass off as steffy 's is not hers . bill : for god sake , katie , come on . katie : steffy hit her head on the bathtub last year , and they did an m.r.i . at the hospital . my doctor compared the two of them . guess what ? two different people , two different brains . but you knew that , did n't you ? you manipulated this from the beginning , you and steffy , and i keep asking myself why , but i already know the answer . this is n't so much about keeping hope and liam apart . this is about keeping steffy in the family where you can have her close without raising suspicions . what you 've done to your son , what you 've done to steffy 's family , it 's cruel , and it 's gon na stop tonight . bill : katie . katie ! katie , come on . you 're overreacting . katie : ( sighs )Summarize.[/INST]bill tells justin to stop looking at him like that . he did not exchange wedding vows with him and he did not commit murder . steffy would be devastated if she knew hope was still in the picture with liam . he did what he had to do to keep liam from being sucked in again by hope . once the marriage is back on track , they will have another mri and the clot will be gone and all can dance around the maypole . he suspects liam picked up the mri off of alison 's desk so he 'll go over and retrieve it . hope mopes while looking over pictures and tells beverly that perhaps she was naive and wrong about promoting her view about abstinence . beverly tells he that she thinks it 's sweet and she looks up to her . young ladies respect her for her hard choices . katie quizzes her doctor about steffy 's mri and is relieved when she says there is a blood clot and it could become dislodged if the patient is upset . but the doctor has more findings ; the current brain scan is not steffy 's ; it is from another person . bill calls dr. montgomery . he informs bill that liam has insisted on another mri and they are on their way . bill says that is okay , just do n't let him down . make sure these results say the same thing ; the blood clot has not dissolved yet so steffy is still in danger . katie finds bill at liam 's and says they must talk . she confronts him and tells him that she wants the truth .if he even knows what that is any more . she showed her doctor the mri and found it is not even steffy 's , so once more bill has manipulated things not to keep liam and hope apart but to be sure that steffy stays close within the family . she charges out ; it 's gon na stop tonight . bill follows her down the driveway trying to persuade her that she is over - reacting .</s> | 3,283 |

[ cellphone ringing ] oh . lucas : well , who is it ? chloe : uh , daniel . sorry . daniel , hi . what a surprise . daniel : yeah . i 'm looking for lucas . uh , his cell keeps going to voice mail . is he around ? chloe : oh , yeah . he 's right here . hang on . hey , uh , he wants to talk to you . lucas : hey , daniel , what 's up ? daniel : hey . it 's about philip . victor wants you at the mansion , as soon as you can . lucas : i 'm on my way . thanks for letting me know . chloe : what 's going on ? lucas : victor wants to talk about my brother . come on . let 's go . chloe : y - you know what ? i have a couple things to do first , but i 'll just meet you there . lucas : all right . fine . we will talk later . maggie : sure . chloe : maggie , thank you . maggie : um , i would n't if i were you . chloe : `` would n't `` ? maggie : thank me . it seems that lucas is starting to remember , chloe . it 's just a matter of time before he learns the truth -- that you betrayed him ... with daniel . mia : why would you even say that ? i 'm not going to be seeing will anymore -- says who ? jamie : mia , come on . mia : no , you come on . i am not the same girl i was a year ago . jamie : fine . i get that . mia : and will and i are just getting to know each other . jamie : all right . all right . would you shut up and let me talk ? my lease is up on the apartment . travis and i are leaving town . mia : what ? when did you decide this ? jamie : when he lost his job and could n't get another one -- not in salem , anyway . so either you find yourself a new place to live ... or you move back in with your mother . your choice . chloe : maggie , he ca n't find out about daniel and me . i wo n't let it happen . i mean , i made a promise to god that i 'd give up daniel if lucas lived . maggie : chloe , i know you 've been loyal to lucas since you made this deal with god , but it does n't change what happened before . you cheated on lucas when you were engaged to him . now , if he finds out ... chloe : he 'll leave me . maggie : well , let 's be positive here . it has n't happened yet . chloe : you know , it 's just a matter of time before all this blows up in my face . maggie : no , no , no , no . no , not necessarily . look , the one thing that we know is that kate loves her son . she wants to see him happy . and if he 's happy with you -- and i think that he is -- she 's not gon na risk upsetting lucas , potentially losing him , just so she can tell him what happened . chloe : i hope you 're right . and i really pray that lucas does n't remember . maggie : pray hard . kate : hey , baby . lucas : hey , mom . i 'm so glad you 're back . kate : you know about philip , right ? lucas : yeah . yeah , i do . i 'm sorry you had to come home to that . kate : [ exhales deeply ] lucas : how was london ? how 's billie doing ? kate : well , the , uh , the rehab is intense , but , um , chelsea is with her pretty much around the clock , and the doctors say that she 's going to make a -- make a full recovery . lucas : good . it 's good news . kate : yeah . oh , sweetie .

melanie : you know , the reason i 'm `` doing this `` is because i am a human being . i care about my fellow man . everybody thinks i 'm so shallow and insensitive , and i do n't understand why , because i am not ! if philip and stephanie want to be together , then that 's fine . if he really loves her , who am i to stand in her way , so i 'm trying to do the right thing . shoot me . i 'm kidding . do n't -- do n't shoot me . owen : i understand your motives , but it 's too late . you ca n't help her now . melanie : what do you mean ? owen : it 's over for you two . i hate these glasses ! now , is that box filled in ? is `` cremated `` filled in , or is that just a big , fat ink blot ? ! oh , god . i 'm gon na have to wait till the family contacts me . until such time ... i 'm gon na store this stiff in a drawer . you just wait for owen . philip : [ thinking ] it looks like i finally caught a break . victor : well , what the hell are you doing here ? chloe : mm . hello to you , too . where 's lucas ? victor : the invitation was n't extended to include the village slut . chloe : [ sighs ] i am here to support my husband , and if you do n't like it , you can take it up with him . lucas : there you are . i thought i heard your voice . what are you doing ? where are you going ? chloe : i just need a minute alone . lucas : what did you do ? what did you say to her ? victor : nothing . i just told her she was always welcome in my home . lucas : yeah . kate : i should n't have left salem . chelsea was with billie . i should have waited to go to london . victor : no , you needed to be with billie . it was the right thing to do . kate : oh , god , victor . we have to find philip . we have to find philip before it 's too late . philip : [ grunts ] [ thinking ] think , philip . all you have to do is unzip this thing from the inside and you 're out of here . then you find stephanie . come on . come on . come on , come on , come on . come on . stephanie : [ groaning ] victor : the reason i 've assembled the family , as i 'm sure you 've all assumed , is to discuss the situation with philip . i know you 're all concerned , but i have to ask you to stay calm and to stay out of it . we 're handling the situation internally , which means no police . chloe : um , should n't brady be here ? victor : do you have a question , chloe ? chloe : uh , yeah . i 'm just wondering why brady is n't here . victor : my grandson is dead to me . lucas : what ? why ? victor : well , let 's just say that he made an unfortunate decision , and i ca n't afford any of those -- personal or professional . that 's all i have to say for now . daniel : victor ... i know you 're upset with brady for whatever ... victor : just stay the hell out of this , will you , daniel ?

are you okay ? brady : yeah . yeah . i 'll live , i think . owen : sorry i had to hit you , mr. black , but you stuck your nose where it does n't belong , sir . melanie : he 's got her . he 's got stephanie . he 's probably hiding her in the funeral home . brady : all right , listen . listen , man . why do n't we talk about this , all right ? owen : no more talking . i got to get rid of the two of before anyone sees you . come on . get up . let 's move . brady : take it easy . owen : come on . let 's go . let 's go . move it . melanie : i - i need by pur -- owen : now . this way . lucas : you know what , mom ? he can at least be civil to her . kate : [ sighing ] oh , god . lucas , maybe she provoked him . lucas : she did n't provoke him . come on . chloe 's trying hard with victor -- really hard -- and every time she opens her mouth , he slaps her in the face with another insult and tries to humiliate her . i 'm sick of it . talk to him , all right ? it 's unfair . will : hi . kate : hey ! lucas : there he is . there 's my man . what 's going on , big guy ? will : nothing . lucas : you all right ? will : yeah . did i miss something ? victor : your father will fill you in later on , will . will : about what ?

why is everyone so upset ? lucas : oh , just the usual drama . you know the drill . will : right . lucas : what brings you by ? will : i was just asking mr. kiriakis if i could use his pool , invite some friends over . lucas : friends , huh ? anybody i know ? will : i doubt it . lucas : why would you bring them here ? it must be somebody you want to impress . will : `` impress `` ? lucas : yeah -- impress -- you know , like a girl -- like the girl who was at your baseball game -- that girl . mia : `` go back home and -- `` why would i want to live with my mother ? why would you even suggest that ? jamie : 'cause it 's free . mia : it 's a horrible idea . jamie : either you go there or you 're on your own . mia : thank you , jamie . thank you for being so understanding . it 's really good to know you 're here for me . jamie : mia , come on . it 's not like i can afford to pay your rent for you . i 've got money issues myself . mia : i know that . it 's okay . i just do n't know what i 'm gon na do . jamie : i wish i could help . i 'm really sorry , mia . i 'll see you later , okay ?

melanie : you know , the reason i 'm `` doing this `` is because i am a human being . i care about my fellow man . everybody thinks i 'm so shallow and insensitive , and i do n't understand why , because i am not ! if philip and stephanie want to be together , then that 's fine . if he really loves her , who am i to stand in her way , so i 'm trying to do the right thing . shoot me . i 'm kidding . do n't -- do n't shoot me . owen : i understand your motives , but it 's too late . you ca n't help her now . melanie : what do you mean ? owen : it 's over for you two . i hate these glasses ! now , is that box filled in ? is `` cremated `` filled in , or is that just a big , fat ink blot ? ! oh , god . i 'm gon na have to wait till the family contacts me . until such time ... i 'm gon na store this stiff in a drawer . you just wait for owen . philip : [ thinking ] it looks like i finally caught a break . victor : well , what the hell are you doing here ?

where are you going ? chloe : i just need a minute alone . lucas : what did you do ? what did you say to her ? victor : nothing . i just told her she was always welcome in my home . lucas : yeah . kate : i should n't have left salem . chelsea was with billie . i should have waited to go to london . victor : no , you needed to be with billie . it was the right thing to do . kate : oh , god , victor . we have to find philip . we have to find philip before it 's too late . philip : [ grunts ] [ thinking ] think , philip . all you have to do is unzip this thing from the inside and you 're out of here . then you find stephanie . come on . come on . come on , come on , come on . come on . stephanie : [ groaning ] victor : the reason i 've assembled the family , as i 'm sure you 've all assumed , is to discuss the situation with philip . i know you 're all concerned , but i have to ask you to stay calm and to stay out of it . we 're handling the situation internally , which means no police . chloe : um , should n't brady be here ? victor : do you have a question , chloe ? chloe : uh , yeah . i 'm just wondering why brady is n't here . victor : my grandson is dead to me . lucas : what ? why ? victor : well , let 's just say that he made an unfortunate decision , and i ca n't afford any of those -- personal or professional . that 's all i have to say for now . daniel : victor ... i know you 're upset with brady for whatever ... victor : just stay the hell out of this , will you , daniel ?

the past has a strange way of just popping out of nowhere and just sinking its hooks into us , does n't it ? sam : you know , it 's funny how it happens , though . you do n't even see it coming . t.c . : sammy , what about you and ivy ? i mean , i ca n't imagine ivy living over your garage apartment while grace is gone . sam : you know , to tell you the truth , t.c . , i 'm glad she 's there . you know , kay is still living over at tabitha 's with the baby and jessica is spending so much time with reese these days , i 'd be pretty lonely without her . t.c . : so are you two getting tight ? sam : it 's nothing hot and heavy yet , but , you know , it 's nice when someone really cares about me , puts me first for a change . you know , she 's even getting along with kay lately , which is unbelievable . t.c . : get the hell out of here -- kay ? i ca n't believe she would have anything to do with ivy . sam : not anymore . ivy 's even been giving kay advice . t.c . : so ivy is making some inroads with you . sam : all i can say is you never entirely get your first love out of your system . julian : damn it . eve : we ca n't even look at possible adoptive parents ? julian : well , wait , maybe this will let us in . no . looks like my father 's thought of everything . there 's no way that we can get into the files that could lead us to our son . eve : i knew it was too good to be true . julian : well , do n't despair . i 'll -- i 'll go see that computer hacker again and -- and see if he has any other ideas . eve : thanks for trying . julian : it 's for both of us , eve . eve : well , maybe it 's a good thing that we did n't find our son today . i mean , it 'll give me more time to prepare t.c . for the news . julian : you hoststly think that t.c . will accept the fact that you and i had a relationship before the two of you met , not to mention a son ? eve : i 'll just explain to them that -- that i was very young when our son was conceived and that we both made mistakes , that we both regret them , but that that 's no reason to take it out on our child . and , of course , they will be angry at first , but they 'll get t because they love me d they know that i love them julian : i i know you do , and i know what it feels like to be loved by you . only a fool like the cad i used to be could throw that away . you know , every day , i think about what our lives would be like if i would 've had the courage to stand up to my father when he told us to -- to break apart . eve : well , we 'll never know what it would 've been like . eve : good morning , darling . julian : oh , my beautiful bride . what would you like to do today ? eve : actually , i was thinking maybe we could go back to bed . julian : i know , eve . i know exactly what it would 've been like . fox : look -- talk about paranoid , you two . come on -- ca n't two friends give each other a hug hello ? what 's the -- chad : no , i saw the way whitney rushed into your arms . fox : what -- chad : that was n't just a casual hello . fox : and there 's a perfectly good explanation for that . theresa : well , i want to hear it , especially since we decided to give our relationship a chance . whitney : uh -- so , when did -- when did that happen ? theresa : right before you got here . fofox and i had a -- a real heart - to- heart , and i decided that you guys were right , that it 's time for me to put my feelings behind about ethan and -- and give fox a chance . so , you were telling me all along , you know ? he 's a great guy and i should n't let him slip through my fingers , so i 'm just glad i realized it before it was too late . whitney : yeah . ethan : well , great minds think alike because we 've been worried about sheridan ever since th p put her back in that hospital . gwen : yeah . ethan 's even been making some phone calls -- you know , looking for some kind of legal precedent we can use to help her . luis : yeah , well , so what did you find out ? huh ? can we get her out of there ? ethan : no , there 's -- there 's nothing that we can use so far , but i have one more phone call i 'm waiting on . luis : i mean , you guys agree with me , right ? i mean , it 's absolutely crazy that she 's locked up there . ethan : yeah , but that 's -- that 's the problem , actually . we can all feel as strongly as we want , but as long as sheridan 's doctor and her husband do n't agree -- luis : well , the hell with her husband . all right , sheridan want to divorce antonio and marry me . ethan : luis , that just wo n't cut it . we ca n't go to a judge and -- and say that just because sheridan loves you more than your brother that you should decide her coursofof treatment . luis : all right , well , what if we can prove that antonio does n't have sheridan 's best interests at heart ? gwen : yeah , but he does . there is no way antonio would keep her locked up in there if he did n't think it was the best thing . luis : well , what if you 're wrong ? what if the real reason that antonio has her locked up is to keep her away from me ? beth : antonio , you ca n't keep second - guessing yourself . signing sheridan in here was the right thing to do . antonio : but how do i know that for sure ? beth : well , it 's simple -- she needs help . there 's no question about her mental instability since the kidnapping . antonio : you mean the fact that she still thinks that your baby is hers , right ? beth : come on -- how confused can a person get ? there is no doubt in my mind or the doctor 's . sheridan is in the best place to get the help she so desperately needs . antonio : yeah , but she hates it here , beth . i mean , i see how upset she gets being in here . beth : did n't the doctor say that that 's to be expected of a n new patient ? antonio : yeah , i guess , but you know what ? sheridan 's not his wife . beth : exactly . he 's an objective professional . that 's why you have to trust him . why would he lie to you about something like that ? dr. ackland : ah -- mr . lopez fitzgerald and ms . wallace . oh , i see you brought the little one . beth : yeah . dr. ackland : are the nurses not expressing enough of sheridan 's breast milk ? beth : oh , yes -- no . they are , doctor . it 's just that he seems to have more of an appetite when he 's with sheridan in person . that 's why i brought him to be with her . that 's what i was supposed to do , right ? dr. ackland : absolutely . the act of nursing seemso o calm both the patient and the baby . [ baby fusses ] beth : shh . dr. ackland : follow me , please . beth : it 's ok . it 's ok . do n't go soft on me now , antonio . sheridan 's got to stay locked up long enough for me to marry luis . sheridan : oh , thank god . antonio ! i was so afraid i was going to have to stay here ! they spent the day having their pictures taken in mexico . now time to have their say . paul martin and george bush . can their first meeting patch things up ? report from monterrey . on tonight 's global national with kevin newman . theresa : come on ! why are n't you happy for me ? i mean , i thought that 's why you guys were hugging -- because fox told you our good news . whitney : oh , no . theresa : well -- well , why are n't you guys just happy for us ? i mean , you 've been trying to push us together for what seems like forever . whitney : yeah . you know what ? you 're right . congratulations . fox : thank you . thank you . theresa : you know what ? i -- i think that the timing is incredible . i mean , chad is back . the two of you guys can start over . at the same time , fox and i are falling in love . i mean , i think the timing is just perfect all the way around . fox : i keep telling her i ca n't believe she 's been lele to get ethan out of her head so quickly . theresa : well , ethan did it to himself by refusing to help me fight for custody of little ethan . i mean , his betrayal almost made me give up on love entirely . but then i took another good look at you , and , well , see , i realized how long he 's hung in there , you know , waiting for me to come to my senses , and then suddenly , i just -- i knew who the right man has been for me all along . it 's not ethan , but his half brother fox . so , who says there 's no such thing as love conquering all ? chad : actually , whitney does . theresa : no , she doesn't . come on . i mean , come on , whitney 's a romantic . i mean , she comes from parents who -- who still act like lovebirds after , like , what , who knows how many years of marriage ? [ eve sighs ] whitney : oh , just grow up , all of you , ok ? there 's no such thing as love . chad : whitney . ethan : you do n't really , really think antonio has ulterior motives here . luis : well , i would n't put it past him . he 's been out of his mind ever since he found out about me and sheridan . gwen : yeah , but even so , i mean , you do n't think it 's possible that -- that antonio would commit sheridan solely out of jealousy ? he loves her with all of his heart . i mean , he must think it 's the best thing for her to be in the psychiatric ward for help . luis : well , it 's not . look , sheridan should be at home where i can help her get better , ok , without any pressure . it does n't make any sense for her to be locked up . it 's not like she 's a threat to herself or anyone else . locking her up -- it 's just going to traumatize heanand make her worse ! ethan : but you got to admit she 's been -- she 's been really confused lately . luis : what , you mean thinking that beth 's baby is hers ? gwen : it 's unbelievable , though . you know , the minute sheridan has martin in her arms , he stops fussing and she just turns into this amazing mother . anou know , would swear they were mother and son . there 's -- there 's no way they could be , right ? i mean -- luis : what ? gwenen , what are you talking about ? gwen : i 'm just thinking . i do n't know . what if sheridan is right ? what if she knows something that -- that we all do n't know and that baby really is hers ? is that possible ? ethan : gwen -- come on . gwen : listen -- ethan , sheridan swears up and down that she can feel it . luis : gwen , i wish more than anything that were true , but there 's just no way . gwen : right . she was in the -- kidnappers had her when she gave birth to her baby , right ? luis : right . and i got the call that beth was delivering when i was rescuing sheridan at sea . martin was delivered at home . gwen : you were n't there wh the baby was delivered ? luis : no . no , martin had already made his appearance by the time i got there . gwen : that 's interesting . ethan : all right . what is going on in that mind of yours ? luis : yeah , gwen . what are you thinking ? sheridan : that 's why you 're here , is n't it ? you 're going to make them release me so that i can go home . oh , my baby ! you brought me my baby ! dr. ackland : this is not your baby , sheridan . this s s miss wallace 's baby . she brought him here so you could nurse him . sheridan : of course i 'll nurse him ! he 's my son ! oh . oh . hi . yes . hello . antonio : it 's incredible , is n't it , seeing sheridan with little martin ? it 's almost like he 's her baby . i 'm leslie roberts in the global newsroom . a 9th ontario hospital report patients may have been at risk to unsterilized equipment . this time 100 women who underwent cervix exexaminations at kitcheners grand river hospital . the news comes just hours after the health minister claimed his department audit found no new cases of dirty equipment . the latest on this developing story at 5 : 30 . -- temperatures falling , with a new cold alert now in effect . it will be the coldest night so far this winter . merereologist michael kuss will tell you how cold , and how long we 'll be iththe deep freeze . -- join us for all the news at ng a lightbulb , ca n't you tell ? sam : no , there 's no doubt in my mind -- if david hastings had n't been grace 's first love , they would n't be together ritt now . t.c . : sam , she does n't even remember him or the time they spent together . sam : well , that -- that 's what makes the pull even stronger . i mean , the reind ways toeaeal with our early relationships because we do member them . grace never had that opportunitycause of her amnesia . t.c . : so she never resolved the things that she did with david in her mind . sam : look , it 's hard enough when relationships are cut short by outsiders like with me and ivy . i mean , harder still when you ca n't remember anything . t.c . : sam , it sounds like to me that you 're accepting that grace is gone . sam : look , man , i do n't know if i 'll ever accept that . all i 'm saying is that through this experience , it 's taught me one thing -- that you never completely get over the first person you really fell in love with . t.c . : now , are you talking about david and grace or you and ivy ? sam : maybe both . t.c . : listen , man , i am so glad that i am not in your shoes because i could n't dedeal with this lying down . thank god that i am the only man that eve ever loved . i am her first and her last . julian : can you picture it , eve ?

is it seeing chad again ? i mean , i should have just told you that he was back , but he -- he wanted to surprise you . whitney : yeah , well , he did that , all right . theresa : and what 's wrong with that ? whitney : i do n't know . you know , i do n't really know anything right now . theresa : ok . well , chad got the divorce from latoya , whitney , and he could n't stand not being with you , so he came back to make things right . now , that 's a knight in shining armor . whitney : then why do n't you ride off on his trusty steed in the sunset with him , hon . theresa : i 'm taken , remember ? and we 're talking about you and chad . you know ? he 's madly in love with you , just like he always has been . do n't tell me that you 've fallen out of love with him . whitney : look , theresa , honey , how many times do i have to tell you , i -- i mean , i do n't know what i 'm feeling right now . i 'm just not really sure about it . theresa : well , i do , ok ? you love him , just like you always have . i know he hurt you terribly because of what happened with latoya . but you know what ? men are n't like women . they make mistakes . but you got to learn to forgive them when they 're big enough to admit it and say that they 're sorry . whitney : yeah , but , you know , it 's not that easy . theresa : it is . it is . you just -- you got to let down those defenses that you have long enough to hear what chad 's saying , you know , long enough to remember what you guys had together , and you 'll be back in no time . whitney : you know what ? i 'm not like you , theresa . i ca n't just fall in and out of love at the drop of a hat . i meant what i said -- i do n't believe in love anymore . all it does is hurt people . chad : yo , man , you really did me a solid looking after whitney while i was in l.a . fox : i did n't mind it a bit . chad : thanks again , man . i mean , it 's great about you and theresa . i mean , it sounds like theresa 's finally 86 'd old ethan out of her system . hey , i hate to ask you for another favor after everything you 've done . fox : what 's that ? chad : it 's obvious whitney trusts you . will you help me get her back ? fox : get her back ? no , chad . sorry , man , i -- i ca n't do that . they spent the day having their pictures taken in mexico . now time to have their say . paul martin and george bush . can their first meeting patch things up ?

seems to me like the ball 's in your court . you 're the only one that 's really going to convince her that you 're sincere . chad : i hear what you 're saying . the only problem is she wo n't listen to me . shwiwill to you . at least tell me you 'll back me up . i know theresa will , but it sure would help a lot if you were in my corner , too . i know i can make whitney happy . fox : okok , ad , , ma a all -- - all i want is whitnes s happiness , totoo , you kw ?

ethan : come on , gwen . what are you thinking ? gwen : it 's just a -- you know , it 's a strange timeline , that 's all . you find sheridan , and then right after that beth 's baby is born and no one 's there to witness the birth ? luis : gwen , that 's not true . beth 's doctor was there , her mother was there , not to mention precious . gwen : oh , well , the ' e 's a reliable witness . luis : you know what i 'm saying .

[ baby cries ] dr. ackland : absolutely . absolutely . it 's possible -- probable -- that she will just sink deeper into this fantasy world and , in a worst - case scenario , will become permanently insane . antonio : no . dr. ackland : yes , those are the facts . now , if you 're willing to take that risk -- antonio : no , no . she 's here because she needs to get better . that 's why i signed her in here again -- because i want her to be well , ok ?

look at me and ethan . then there 's antonio and luis . i mean , from what i understand , those two are about ready to kill each other . chad : i heard about that . but you can hardly blame them . i mean , they 're in love with the same woman . it 's got to be hell . but you and i do n't have to worry about anything like that . gwen : well , it seems like dr . culver 's specialty is women with difficult pregnancies . think i 'll make an appointment for myself . ethan : all right , thanks , anyway . luis : ethan , what 'd they say ? is there a precedent for sheridan 's situation ? ethan : luis , i 'm sorry . it 's what i thought . there 's nothing we can use . we 're just -- we 're just -- legally , we 're up against a brick wall here . as long as antonio wants to keep sheridan as a patient , there 's nothing we can do . luis : damn it . i 'm getting sheridan out of there . all right , there 's no way that i 'm letting her stay in there . beth : ok , give him to me , sheridan . sheridan : sorry , beth , but no . i am his mother . beth : would you tell her that she 's not , that i am martin 's mother . antonio : it 's only right , sheridan . you know it 's true . dr. ackland : if you do not give the child to ms . wallace , i am afraid i will be forced to take him from you . sheranan : no . i wo n't let you take him , all right ? i promised him that i would protect him , and i will . beth : do n't -- do n't -- do n't hurt my baby . dr. ackland : sheridan , please . it 'll be easier for everyone if you just hand over the baby . if you struggle , something could happen to martin . and you do n't want that , do you ? sheridan : no . sheridan : oh , god . no , let me have my baby ! antonio , please , do something ! god ! antonio : i 'm sorry , sheridan . sheridan : no ! antonio : do n't hurt her . dr. ackland : nobody 's going to hurt anybody . but it 's time for you and ms . wallace to leave . sheridan : no . antonio , no , please , do n't leave me here . please , do n't leave me ! tell them that i need to have my baby ! beth : come on , antonio . they know what they 're doing . come on . sheridan : no , they -- no ! give me my baby ! let go of me ! sheridan : no , please ! let me out . please , just let me have my baby ! please , let me out of here ! no ! sheridan : i 'm begging you , if you love me , tell them to let me go . luis : i 'm getting her out of there , no matter what i have to do . kay : get a life , charity . get a brand - new life without myauaughter 's father . gwen : there is something not right about beth , and i 'm going to find out what it is . | fox stands idly by while chad accuses him and whitney of becoming a couple while he was still in l.a. theresa walks up and asks what whitney is doing with her boyfriend . fox and whitney say they are good friends , and a hug is not anything to get so upset about . luis goes to see ethan and gwen to ask for their help in getting sheridan out of the psych ward and back home where she belongs . ethan makes several phone calls to other attorneys for a legal precedent , but there is n't one . gwen begins to have suspicions about beth , since she had her baby at home without reliable witnesses . | <s>[INST] [ knock on door ] t.c . : i did n't think you would show . sam : and leave you to figure out what 's wrong with your snowblower on your own ? [ t.c . chuckles ] sam : do n't think so . anyway , compared to where i 've been today , this is playtime . t.c . : what 's up ? sam : i just came from the psych ward at the hospital . luis and antonio almost killed each other over sheridan being locked up in there . neither one of them can see the other 's side . t.c . : nothing worse than a family feud . you know , i am so glad that everything is great in my house . eve and i -- we could n't be better . julian : oh , no . eve : god , i do n't believe it . our son -- julian : i do n't understand . this disc was supposed to be able to hack through all the adoption agency files . eve : well , maybe we should just try it again . julian : i do n't think that 's going to help . eve : why not ? julian : because this has all the earmarks of my father 's handiwork . eve : you think that alistair knows that we 're searching for our son ? julian : that 's what l looks like . he must 've put some sort of block around the information we need , like a -- a firewall to keep us out . eve : oh . then we 're right back where we 're started . julian : but wait -- maybe he 's just blocked the information on the whereabouts of the babies . if we can pull up the names of the adoptive and foster parents , we still might have a shot of learning our son 's name and where he is . eve : this has got to work . we have to find our son , julian . chad : somebody give me the 411 on what i 'm looking at -- fox : all right . chad : like now . fox : look , chill pill , my friend , all right ? chad : no , no , do n't try to game me , fox . what the hell is my woman doing in your arms ? whitney : wait , chad , listen -- chad : did i mess up so badly in l.a. that you had to rebound with this guy ? is that what 's going on here ? theresa : whitney ? what are you doing with my boyfriend ? beth : are you ok ? [ antonio sighs ] antonio : i 've got a question for you , beth . beth : what ? antonio : do you think i 'm doing the right thing by keeping sheridan in here ? sheridan : somebody please get me out of here . where are you , luis ? gwen : luis . ethan : hey , hey , i got your message . what 's up ? luis : look , i know you and i have n't always seen eye to eye , but i really need your help here . ethan : look , look , luis , if it 's -- if it 's about your sister theresa , i promised gwen that -- luis : no . this has nothing to do with theresa , ok ? this is about sheridan . look , we need to get her out of that psych ward . ethan : i know that , but you -- you ca n't kidnap her the way you did last time . luis : well , ethan , that 's why i came here , ok ? i want to do this legally , but i need to do this now . singer : i would hold the hand of the one who could lead me places and kiss the lips of the one who could sing so sweet and i would fly on the wings of the bird i knew could take me highest breathe in , breathe out you keep me alive you are the fire burning inside of me you are my passion for life t.c . : enough about eve and me . you know , i ca n't imagine life for you without grace . sam : you know , if you would 've told me a year ago -- hell , even last month -- that she 'd be with david right now , i would 've told you you were nuts , that she 'd never put our marriage second to the one she does n't even remember having with him . t.c . : you know what , man ? the past has a strange way of just popping out of nowhere and just sinking its hooks into us , does n't it ? sam : you know , it 's funny how it happens , though . you do n't even see it coming . t.c . : sammy , what about you and ivy ? i mean , i ca n't imagine ivy living over your garage apartment while grace is gone . sam : you know , to tell you the truth , t.c . , i 'm glad she 's there . you know , kay is still living over at tabitha 's with the baby and jessica is spending so much time with reese these days , i 'd be pretty lonely without her . t.c . : so are you two getting tight ? sam : it 's nothing hot and heavy yet , but , you know , it 's nice when someone really cares about me , puts me first for a change . you know , she 's even getting along with kay lately , which is unbelievable . t.c . : get the hell out of here -- kay ? i ca n't believe she would have anything to do with ivy . sam : not anymore . ivy 's even been giving kay advice . t.c . : so ivy is making some inroads with you . sam : all i can say is you never entirely get your first love out of your system . julian : damn it . eve : we ca n't even look at possible adoptive parents ? julian : well , wait , maybe this will let us in . no . looks like my father 's thought of everything . there 's no way that we can get into the files that could lead us to our son . eve : i knew it was too good to be true . julian : well , do n't despair . i 'll -- i 'll go see that computer hacker again and -- and see if he has any other ideas . eve : thanks for trying . julian : it 's for both of us , eve . eve : well , maybe it 's a good thing that we did n't find our son today . i mean , it 'll give me more time to prepare t.c . for the news . julian : you hoststly think that t.c . will accept the fact that you and i had a relationship before the two of you met , not to mention a son ? eve : i 'll just explain to them that -- that i was very young when our son was conceived and that we both made mistakes , that we both regret them , but that that 's no reason to take it out on our child . and , of course , they will be angry at first , but they 'll get t because they love me d they know that i love them julian : i i know you do , and i know what it feels like to be loved by you . only a fool like the cad i used to be could throw that away . you know , every day , i think about what our lives would be like if i would 've had the courage to stand up to my father when he told us to -- to break apart . eve : well , we 'll never know what it would 've been like . eve : good morning , darling . julian : oh , my beautiful bride . what would you like to do today ? eve : actually , i was thinking maybe we could go back to bed . julian : i know , eve . i know exactly what it would 've been like . fox : look -- talk about paranoid , you two . come on -- ca n't two friends give each other a hug hello ? what 's the -- chad : no , i saw the way whitney rushed into your arms . fox : what -- chad : that was n't just a casual hello . fox : and there 's a perfectly good explanation for that . theresa : well , i want to hear it , especially since we decided to give our relationship a chance . whitney : uh -- so , when did -- when did that happen ? theresa : right before you got here . fofox and i had a -- a real heart - to- heart , and i decided that you guys were right , that it 's time for me to put my feelings behind about ethan and -- and give fox a chance . so , you were telling me all along , you know ? he 's a great guy and i should n't let him slip through my fingers , so i 'm just glad i realized it before it was too late . whitney : yeah . ethan : well , great minds think alike because we 've been worried about sheridan ever since th p put her back in that hospital . gwen : yeah . ethan 's even been making some phone calls -- you know , looking for some kind of legal precedent we can use to help her . luis : yeah , well , so what did you find out ? huh ? can we get her out of there ? ethan : no , there 's -- there 's nothing that we can use so far , but i have one more phone call i 'm waiting on . luis : i mean , you guys agree with me , right ? i mean , it 's absolutely crazy that she 's locked up there . ethan : yeah , but that 's -- that 's the problem , actually . we can all feel as strongly as we want , but as long as sheridan 's doctor and her husband do n't agree -- luis : well , the hell with her husband . all right , sheridan want to divorce antonio and marry me . ethan : luis , that just wo n't cut it . we ca n't go to a judge and -- and say that just because sheridan loves you more than your brother that you should decide her coursofof treatment . luis : all right , well , what if we can prove that antonio does n't have sheridan 's best interests at heart ? gwen : yeah , but he does . there is no way antonio would keep her locked up in there if he did n't think it was the best thing . luis : well , what if you 're wrong ? what if the real reason that antonio has her locked up is to keep her away from me ? beth : antonio , you ca n't keep second - guessing yourself . signing sheridan in here was the right thing to do . antonio : but how do i know that for sure ? beth : well , it 's simple -- she needs help . there 's no question about her mental instability since the kidnapping . antonio : you mean the fact that she still thinks that your baby is hers , right ? beth : come on -- how confused can a person get ? there is no doubt in my mind or the doctor 's . sheridan is in the best place to get the help she so desperately needs . antonio : yeah , but she hates it here , beth . i mean , i see how upset she gets being in here . beth : did n't the doctor say that that 's to be expected of a n new patient ? antonio : yeah , i guess , but you know what ? sheridan 's not his wife . beth : exactly . he 's an objective professional . that 's why you have to trust him . why would he lie to you about something like that ? dr. ackland : ah -- mr . lopez fitzgerald and ms . wallace . oh , i see you brought the little one . beth : yeah . dr. ackland : are the nurses not expressing enough of sheridan 's breast milk ? beth : oh , yes -- no . they are , doctor . it 's just that he seems to have more of an appetite when he 's with sheridan in person . that 's why i brought him to be with her . that 's what i was supposed to do , right ? dr. ackland : absolutely . the act of nursing seemso o calm both the patient and the baby . [ baby fusses ] beth : shh . dr. ackland : follow me , please . beth : it 's ok . it 's ok . do n't go soft on me now , antonio . sheridan 's got to stay locked up long enough for me to marry luis . sheridan : oh , thank god . antonio ! i was so afraid i was going to have to stay here ! they spent the day having their pictures taken in mexico . now time to have their say . paul martin and george bush . can their first meeting patch things up ? report from monterrey . on tonight 's global national with kevin newman . theresa : come on ! why are n't you happy for me ? i mean , i thought that 's why you guys were hugging -- because fox told you our good news . whitney : oh , no . theresa : well -- well , why are n't you guys just happy for us ? i mean , you 've been trying to push us together for what seems like forever . whitney : yeah . you know what ? you 're right . congratulations . fox : thank you . thank you . theresa : you know what ? i -- i think that the timing is incredible . i mean , chad is back . the two of you guys can start over . at the same time , fox and i are falling in love . i mean , i think the timing is just perfect all the way around . fox : i keep telling her i ca n't believe she 's been lele to get ethan out of her head so quickly . theresa : well , ethan did it to himself by refusing to help me fight for custody of little ethan . i mean , his betrayal almost made me give up on love entirely . but then i took another good look at you , and , well , see , i realized how long he 's hung in there , you know , waiting for me to come to my senses , and then suddenly , i just -- i knew who the right man has been for me all along . it 's not ethan , but his half brother fox . so , who says there 's no such thing as love conquering all ? chad : actually , whitney does . theresa : no , she doesn't . come on . i mean , come on , whitney 's a romantic . i mean , she comes from parents who -- who still act like lovebirds after , like , what , who knows how many years of marriage ? [ eve sighs ] whitney : oh , just grow up , all of you , ok ? there 's no such thing as love . chad : whitney . ethan : you do n't really , really think antonio has ulterior motives here . luis : well , i would n't put it past him . he 's been out of his mind ever since he found out about me and sheridan . gwen : yeah , but even so , i mean , you do n't think it 's possible that -- that antonio would commit sheridan solely out of jealousy ? he loves her with all of his heart . i mean , he must think it 's the best thing for her to be in the psychiatric ward for help . luis : well , it 's not . look , sheridan should be at home where i can help her get better , ok , without any pressure . it does n't make any sense for her to be locked up . it 's not like she 's a threat to herself or anyone else . locking her up -- it 's just going to traumatize heanand make her worse ! ethan : but you got to admit she 's been -- she 's been really confused lately . luis : what , you mean thinking that beth 's baby is hers ? gwen : it 's unbelievable , though . you know , the minute sheridan has martin in her arms , he stops fussing and she just turns into this amazing mother . anou know , would swear they were mother and son . there 's -- there 's no way they could be , right ? i mean -- luis : what ? gwenen , what are you talking about ? gwen : i 'm just thinking . i do n't know . what if sheridan is right ? what if she knows something that -- that we all do n't know and that baby really is hers ? is that possible ? ethan : gwen -- come on . gwen : listen -- ethan , sheridan swears up and down that she can feel it . luis : gwen , i wish more than anything that were true , but there 's just no way . gwen : right . she was in the -- kidnappers had her when she gave birth to her baby , right ? luis : right . and i got the call that beth was delivering when i was rescuing sheridan at sea . martin was delivered at home . gwen : you were n't there wh the baby was delivered ? luis : no . no , martin had already made his appearance by the time i got there . gwen : that 's interesting . ethan : all right . what is going on in that mind of yours ? luis : yeah , gwen . what are you thinking ? sheridan : that 's why you 're here , is n't it ? you 're going to make them release me so that i can go home . oh , my baby ! you brought me my baby ! dr. ackland : this is not your baby , sheridan . this s s miss wallace 's baby . she brought him here so you could nurse him . sheridan : of course i 'll nurse him ! he 's my son ! oh . oh . hi . yes . hello . antonio : it 's incredible , is n't it , seeing sheridan with little martin ? it 's almost like he 's her baby . i 'm leslie roberts in the global newsroom . a 9th ontario hospital report patients may have been at risk to unsterilized equipment . this time 100 women who underwent cervix exexaminations at kitcheners grand river hospital . the news comes just hours after the health minister claimed his department audit found no new cases of dirty equipment . the latest on this developing story at 5 : 30 . -- temperatures falling , with a new cold alert now in effect . it will be the coldest night so far this winter . merereologist michael kuss will tell you how cold , and how long we 'll be iththe deep freeze . -- join us for all the news at ng a lightbulb , ca n't you tell ? sam : no , there 's no doubt in my mind -- if david hastings had n't been grace 's first love , they would n't be together ritt now . t.c . : sam , she does n't even remember him or the time they spent together . sam : well , that -- that 's what makes the pull even stronger . i mean , the reind ways toeaeal with our early relationships because we do member them . grace never had that opportunitycause of her amnesia . t.c . : so she never resolved the things that she did with david in her mind . sam : look , it 's hard enough when relationships are cut short by outsiders like with me and ivy . i mean , harder still when you ca n't remember anything . t.c . : sam , it sounds like to me that you 're accepting that grace is gone . sam : look , man , i do n't know if i 'll ever accept that . all i 'm saying is that through this experience , it 's taught me one thing -- that you never completely get over the first person you really fell in love with . t.c . : now , are you talking about david and grace or you and ivy ? sam : maybe both . t.c . : listen , man , i am so glad that i am not in your shoes because i could n't dedeal with this lying down . thank god that i am the only man that eve ever loved . i am her first and her last . julian : can you picture it , eve ?

i mean , i have a good feeling that i 'm going to win my doubles match , and simone told me that you know who mighte e coming to my match today . julian : oh , your brother . whitney : yeah , i can hardly wait . i mean , he hardly ever comes to my matches anymore now that he 's studying to become the world 's greatest lawyer . eve : i am just so proud of that kid . julian : well , i 'm proud of -- of all of you . you 're the best family a man could ever have . theresa : what 's wrong ? is it seeing chad again ? i mean , i should have just told you that he was back , but he -- he wanted to surprise you . whitney : yeah , well , he did that , all right . theresa : and what 's wrong with that ? whitney : i do n't know . you know , i do n't really know anything right now . theresa : ok . well , chad got the divorce from latoya , whitney , and he could n't stand not being with you , so he came back to make things right . now , that 's a knight in shining armor . whitney : then why do n't you ride off on his trusty steed in the sunset with him , hon . theresa : i 'm taken , remember ? and we 're talking about you and chad . you know ? he 's madly in love with you , just like he always has been . do n't tell me that you 've fallen out of love with him . whitney : look , theresa , honey , how many times do i have to tell you , i -- i mean , i do n't know what i 'm feeling right now . i 'm just not really sure about it . theresa : well , i do , ok ? you love him , just like you always have . i know he hurt you terribly because of what happened with latoya . but you know what ? men are n't like women . they make mistakes . but you got to learn to forgive them when they 're big enough to admit it and say that they 're sorry . whitney : yeah , but , you know , it 's not that easy . theresa : it is . it is . you just -- you got to let down those defenses that you have long enough to hear what chad 's saying , you know , long enough to remember what you guys had together , and you 'll be back in no time . whitney : you know what ? i 'm not like you , theresa . i ca n't just fall in and out of love at the drop of a hat . i meant what i said -- i do n't believe in love anymore . all it does is hurt people . chad : yo , man , you really did me a solid looking after whitney while i was in l.a . fox : i did n't mind it a bit . chad : thanks again , man . i mean , it 's great about you and theresa . i mean , it sounds like theresa 's finally 86 'd old ethan out of her system . hey , i hate to ask you for another favor after everything you 've done . fox : what 's that ? chad : it 's obvious whitney trusts you . will you help me get her back ? fox : get her back ? no , chad . sorry , man , i -- i ca n't do that . they spent the day having their pictures taken in mexico . now time to have their say . paul martin and george bush . can their first meeting patch things up ?

seems to me like the ball 's in your court . you 're the only one that 's really going to convince her that you 're sincere . chad : i hear what you 're saying . the only problem is she wo n't listen to me . shwiwill to you . at least tell me you 'll back me up . i know theresa will , but it sure would help a lot if you were in my corner , too . i know i can make whitney happy . fox : okok , ad , , ma a all -- - all i want is whitnes s happiness , totoo , you kw ? theresa : whitney , i do n't blame you for being jaded . chad realized that he made a really lousy error in judgment . but he 's willing to do whatever it takes to make it up to you . you know , sometimes we just have to swallow our pride and take a leap on love . that 's what i 'm doing with fox . you told me that he was the perfect guy for me , and -- and now i believe you . you know , he 's got a little too much of that crane cockiness on the outside , but , you know , inside he 's -- he 's kind and sensitive . and is he hot or what ? ethan : come on , gwen . what are you thinking ? gwen : it 's just a -- you know , it 's a strange timeline , that 's all . you find sheridan , and then right after that beth 's baby is born and no one 's there to witness the birth ? luis : gwen , that 's not true . beth 's doctor was there , her mother was there , not to mention precious . gwen : oh , well , the ' e 's a reliable witness . luis : you know what i 'm saying .

[ scene_break ] sonny : can you promise me something ? carly : what ? sonny : that if i tell you what jason and i talked about , you 're not gon na go running to him ? carly : oh , come on , that 's not fair . that 's not -- sonny : i mean -- i mean it . carly : fine . i wo n't go running after him . tell me what 's going on . sonny : jason told me that elizabeth knew who he was for months . carly : oh , thank god . sonny : `` thank god `` -- that 's not the reaction i expected . carly : no , no , do n't get me wrong . i 'm furious . i am . but , sonny , i 'm more relieved . i always knew that elizabeth was wrong for jason . it took him years to figure it out , but he finally realized it , too . but then , elizabeth , she got her hooks into jason all over again , and this time she was n't gon na let go . she insisted she was the only one to accept him for who he is now , that she did n't want the old jason back . the truth is she knew he was jason all along . that little bitch slipped up and showed her true colors ! i mean , she is as selfish and manipulative as they come , and jason sees it . he sees the real elizabeth . and the best part is i did n't have to do anything at all . elizabeth did this all to herself . [ laughs ] sonny : sometimes , the way your mind works kind of scares me . carly : am i wrong ? sonny : no , you 're 100 % right . carly : thank you . sonny : jason , uh , maybe will be able to forgive elizabeth for what she did to him , but he will never forgive her for what she did to sam and danny . so , he does n't know it yet , but he 's done . carly : he came to talk to you about it . sonny : yeah , he just came 'cause he was gon na hit the bag . carly : he could have walked away . he stayed because he wanted to . sonny : no -- carly : and you know what that means ? sonny : no , it means that we just had a conversation . carly : it means coming back to us , sonny . sonny : okay . carly : slowly , but surely , jason 's coming back to us . sonny : listen to me . i 'm advising you not to go to him 'cause he 's gon na get pissed off . so , how was your ... mother / son breakfast with morgan ? carly : that 's a nice segue . sonny : well , i 'm just changing the subject into business that 's ours , which is family . how did it go ? carly : it went okay . sonny : okay . carly : he accused me of hovering . sonny : were you ? carly : a little bit . but we -- it was good . we had a good talk . and morgan is taking his medication because he knows he has to . sonny : okay . mm . carly : he 's getting better .

[ scene_break ] ava : you -- you break my heart . kiki : well ... look at the bright side -- at least i did n't screw your boyfriend . you know , it seems to me that you 've been able to forgive morgan . yes , because the number that you did on him was just as bad , if not worse , than what you did to me . ava : i apologized to morgan for what i 've done . you are my daughter . kiki : so ? when you brought me into this world , you became responsible for taking care of me , for protecting me from anything and anyone that could hurt me ... from people like you . now , if you 'll excuse me , i need to get back to work . ava : i just -- kiki : [ sighs ] ava : i just need to be sure that you 're all right . kiki : i 'm fine . and i 'm no longer your problem . [ sighs ] carly : okay , time 's up . get out of my restaurant and do n't come back . ava : you know what , carly ? i think -- i think maybe if you want sonny to have a chance to see avery anytime soon , you 'll not only let me stay , you 'll volunteer to take my order . morgan : you know what ? you heard my mom , ava . get out . [ scene_break ] sam : patrick 's right . if we stayed together and jason were to suddenly say to me , `` hey , i remember everything . i remember our life together , and i love you `` -- come on , a part of me would want to go back to that . and that 's not -- that 's not fair to patrick . i do n't want to hurt him like that . alexis : you 've made a very mature decision . sam : i do n't know about me , mom . patrick deserves the credit for that . he made me see the truth in this , and we were able to wish each other well . julian : well , what are your plans with jason ? i mean , obviously , you still love him , right ? sam : yes . i mean , yes , of course , i still love him , but that 's not why i told him the truth . jason deserves to make his own choices about his own life . and i do n't even know what that life is or if i fit into it . [ scene_break ] sonny : looks like you could use a drink . jason : [ chuckles ] you know , it 's funny you should say that because , uh ... [ clears throat ] sonny : hm . jason : ... i thought the same thing . i guess , uh , i just felt like hitting something was a better idea . sonny : in a situation like this , you could do both . i - i 'll take a little swig . jason : yeah ? sonny : well , a little bit . jason : okay . sonny : [ grunts ] carly , uh -- here you go -- lied to me more than once . but i got to be fair . i lied to her , too . but we would always find our way back . jason : how ? sonny : we were a lot alike , you know ? we 're just -- we 're both stubborn . we both want what we want . and when we fight , sometimes it can get ugly . and you used to be right in the middle . jason : i 'm glad i do n't remember that . sonny : [ chuckles ] carly and i , we ... we understand each other . we 're loyal to each other . we want what we want , but in the end i forgave her ... because i 'd rather accept what she did than live without her . jason : so , uh , you think that 's what i should do with elizabeth ? [ scene_break ] ava : all right , i 'm gon na go . but , you know , you do n't get to say when i can and can not see kiki . although , it is true that i can say when sonny is able or not able to see avery . carly : if you refuse visitation , you 're in violation of the court order . ava : i 'm not gon na violate anything . morgan : bye , ava . ava : well , morgan , it 's nice to see you out and about . morgan : is that right ? ava : yeah , that 's right . and i do hope that you do n't have to spend any more time in the hospital . i know how heartbreaking it is for any mother to watch her child suffer . morgan : you 're above ground and in one piece , so i guess my meds are working . carly : hey , you okay ? morgan : yeah , mm - hmm . mm - hmm . carly : you sure ? kiki : [ sighs ] well , now that she 's gone , i will clean up this mess and any other evidence she was ever here . [ chuckles ] morgan : here , i 'll help you . carly : you know , why do n't -- why do n't we ta -- morgan : no , no , no , i got it . it got it . carly : okay , i 'm gon na go find your dad . he was up and out early this morning . i need to make sure he stays out of trouble . morgan : okay . carly : um , kiki . i 'm sorry you had to ... go through that . kiki : [ chuckles ] morgan : here . kiki : i can handle this . morgan : no , no . please . humor me . i 've had my mom on my back all morning , so by comparison this is actually kind of fun . kiki : you do realize that your mom is all over you , because she actually cares about you , right ? my mom seems to think that , `` i 'm sorry , and i miss you , `` makes up for a world of pain and betrayal , so ... i win . morgan : yeah , it 's not a contest . kiki : [ chuckles ] damn right it 's not because you 'd lose . morgan : you are correct . and , again , i 'm sorry . kiki : yeah , well , forget about it . i 'm pretending i already have . [ sighs ] so ... [ glass clatters ] kiki : ooh . how are you doing -- really ? morgan : i mean , fine , i guess , for someone who just found out their mental health is in a prescription bottle -- two prescription bottles , actually . kiki : just like millions of other people . you 're not alone . morgan : yeah . i guess that 's the thing that everyone , you know , forgets . they feel like it 's just them . but , you know , all i can do is i can -- i can take my little white and yellow pills and tell myself everything 's fine . kiki : it is n't ? morgan : no , i just -- you know , i feel , like , flattened out . like , it 's like letting the air out of the balloon . it 's hard to explain , really . kiki : you mean like numbed out ? morgan : not numb . it 's like i came back down to earth , and it 's just not as fun as i remembered it to be . [ scene_break ] curtis : i did my part . i did everything you asked of me , and i did it under the radar . hayden : you have . curtis : so , if you want me to continue with my stellar batting average , we 're gon na have to talk about a little bit more time and a lot more money . hayden : fine . do what you need to do . i just want this thing wrapped up . curtis : no worries . once that ballistic report comes back , you 're gon na have all the tangible evidence you need to prove that somebody else tried to kill you in that garage . that is what you want , right -- to prove somebody other than shawn wanted you dead ? [ scene_break ] nikolas : look , what 's done is done , but we need to figure out what we 're gon na do next . elizabeth : no , we -- we are not going to do anything . the conspiracy is over . you can deal with the fallout however you choose , and i 'm sure that means some business maneuver to hang on to elq . nikolas : okay , look , i realize none of that compares to what you 're facing . elizabeth : [ sighs ] jason loved me . nikolas : yeah . elizabeth : i loved him , and i -- our love was real . i should have trusted that . nikolas : mm - hmm . elizabeth : i should have just trusted him . nikolas : yes , you should have . but what you did you did for love . maybe jason will see that . you have jake , a son you both love . he wo n't abandon either one of you . it does n't matter what sam or anyone else says , okay ? what you had , like you said , was real . it mattered . elizabeth : okay . thank you for standing by me through all this craziness . nikolas : you 're welcome . what are friends for , right ? [ sighs ] and remember -- all those people lining up to judge you , they were n't in your shoes . you do n't owe them any explanations . elizabeth : okay . thanks . nikolas : yeah . elizabeth : and , nikolas . yeah ? at some point , jason is gon na be knocking on your door . please be careful . [ door closes ] [ scene_break ] sonny : i could never tell you what to do , and i sure as hell am not gon na start now . jason : huh . i thought the point was i always did what you wanted . sonny : no , you did what you wanted . you chose the life . you chose to work for me . people tried to talk you out of it . you did n't want to -- you did n't want to hear it . i know . i tried . jason : i did n't realize . sonny : i even cut you loose for your own good . you did n't want to hear it 'cause you did n't want anybody making decisions for you , not even me . jason : well , did i ever ask to hear what you think ? sonny : occasionally . jason : i 'm asking . sonny : [ sighs ] i ca n't really be objective because i 'm one of the people that elizabeth left to grieve for seven months . but since you asked me , what i see is she -- she wanted you for herself . she did n't care who suffered -- not your wife , not your son . so , i would n't forgive her . but it 's not up to me . jason : [ clicks tongue ] [ knock on door ] jason : [ sighs ] hey . carly : am i interrupting ? jason : no , no . i was just leaving . sonny : i thought that -- you want to hit the bag one more time , get it all out ? jason : maybe later . there 's something i need to do first . thank you . sonny : all right , anytime . jason : hey . carly : hey . jason : you know , uh , you were right . you really do know me better than i know myself . carly : what was that about ? [ scene_break ] sam : i guess i should just , um , get this out of the way . [ chuckles ] my holiday plans have drastically changed , and i really do n't want to go back to the apartment that i shared with jason , so i was just hoping that danny and i could spend christmas here . alexis : why would you even ask that ? this is your home , too . julian : you and danny are welcome here for as long as you want , sweetheart -- seriously . sam : thank you . alexis : we 're your parents , all right ? sam : mm - hmm . alexis : we will support you no matter what . sam : okay . [ sniffles ] okay , that 's good . um , i was hoping that maybe we can ... make things here really festive and happy when -- when danny wakes up so he can ... alexis : uh , we 'll do that for sure . of course , that 's a great idea . julian : [ sighs ] yeah , i think that 's a great idea . sam : you know , last christmas , patrick and i were at the hospital , and we were watching danny at the -- anyway , there was this mistletoe , and -- [ sighs ] everything seemed great then . i 'm -- i 'm gon na go see if danny is awake , okay ? julian : okay , i 've got to say something before sam gets back . alexis : i already know what it is , but go ahead . julian : okay , yeah , i do n't feel good . i mean , listen , okay , i was n't worried about sam being with patrick . he 's respectable . i liked him . you know , i felt that she was safe with him . but sam being with -- with jason -- i mean , we both know where this is headed , right ? alexis : well , it certainly seems to be . julian : i mean , how many times did he put her in danger ? alexis : i 've lost count . julian : so i do n't like the idea of sam being with jason at all . [ scene_break ] hayden : of course , i want proof that someone besides shawn wanted me dead . that 's why i 'm going broke paying for your services . curtis : you wo n't regret it . hayden : i hope not . now , tell me what you have planned and how much it 's going to cost me because from what you 've implied the only way to get your hands on that gun is to bribe someone . curtis : no . that 's such an unattractive word for such an attractive woman . hayden : how big a bribe are we talking ? [ scene_break ] sonny : can you promise me something ? carly : what ? sonny : that if i tell you what jason and i talked about , you 're not gon na go running to him ? carly : oh , come on , that 's not fair . that 's not -- sonny : i mean -- i mean it . carly : fine . i wo n't go running after him . tell me what 's going on . sonny : jason told me that elizabeth knew who he was for months . carly : oh , thank god . sonny : `` thank god `` -- that 's not the reaction i expected . carly : no , no , do n't get me wrong . i 'm furious . i am . but , sonny , i 'm more relieved . i always knew that elizabeth was wrong for jason . it took him years to figure it out , but he finally realized it , too . but then , elizabeth , she got her hooks into jason all over again , and this time she was n't gon na let go . she insisted she was the only one to accept him for who he is now , that she did n't want the old jason back . the truth is she knew he was jason all along . that little bitch slipped up and showed her true colors ! i mean , she is as selfish and manipulative as they come , and jason sees it . he sees the real elizabeth . and the best part is i did n't have to do anything at all . elizabeth did this all to herself . [ laughs ] sonny : sometimes , the way your mind works kind of scares me . carly : am i wrong ? sonny : no , you 're 100 % right . carly : thank you . sonny : jason , uh , maybe will be able to forgive elizabeth for what she did to him , but he will never forgive her for what she did to sam and danny . so , he does n't know it yet , but he 's done . carly : he came to talk to you about it . sonny : yeah , he just came 'cause he was gon na hit the bag . carly : he could have walked away . he stayed because he wanted to . sonny : no -- carly : and you know what that means ? sonny : no , it means that we just had a conversation . carly : it means coming back to us , sonny . sonny : okay . carly : slowly , but surely , jason 's coming back to us . sonny : listen to me . i 'm advising you not to go to him 'cause he 's gon na get pissed off . so , how was your ... mother / son breakfast with morgan ? carly : that 's a nice segue . sonny : well , i 'm just changing the subject into business that 's ours , which is family . how did it go ? carly : it went okay . sonny : okay . carly : he accused me of hovering . sonny : were you ? carly : a little bit . but we -- it was good . we had a good talk . and morgan is taking his medication because he knows he has to . sonny : okay . mm . carly : he 's getting better .

[ scene_break ] jordan : i 'm sorry . you 're worried about anna ? paul : yes , i would think you would be , as well , given that you two are friends . now , i would think that anna would be missing her granddaughter and her daughter terribly . jordan : and duke . paul : absolutely . yeah . yeah . i know that , uh , anna 's visiting robin , and i - i just hope that , uh , seeing her daughter 's new life wo n't be too hard on her . and how is her trip going ? jordan : i would n't know . i have n't spoken to her . paul : well , a - a - are you saying that anna has n't even texted you since she left town ? i mean , w - when was the last time you guys spoke ? jordan : uh , i really ca n't be too sure . um ... paul : dillon ? dillon : is this a bad time ? jordan : um , not at all . i actually have to get going . um ... paul : yeah , great . great . we 'll pick up this conversation at a later date . jordan : perfect . and , um , i 'm really glad to be able to help you with this case . i 'll have that file on your desk by the morning . paul : i have no doubt . well , this is quite a surprise , and a welcome one . i 'm glad to see you , son . dillon : do n't be . [ scene_break ] franco : we can talk in here . elizabeth : what am i gon na do about jake ? how am i gon na help him ? franco : okay , catch me up , because all i know is that he was hit by a car and that he needed surgery . elizabeth : the surgeons were able to address his internal injuries , but he 's -- he 's got broken bones . he 's gon na need to see an orthopedist . and everybody 's saying his long - term prognosis is good , which is -- which is good , physically , at least . franco : you 're worried about more than his physical condition . elizabeth : [ sighs ] you know about his emotional issues . franco : well , yeah , i mean , i have an idea . elizabeth : okay , so , i was talking to him just now ... franco : yeah , i know . elizabeth : ... and he was saying some really bizarre , disturbing things . clearly , he 's mixing fantasy with -- with these deep , upsetting emotions . franco : well , he 's probably high as a kite , right ? i mean , what kind of drugs do they have him on ? elizabeth : oh , trust me , i 've heard some pretty crazy things from patients who are being medicated like he is . franco : okay . elizabeth : so i know . franco : well , then , why are you so worried ? [ chuckling ] why ? what did he say that freaked you out so much ? elizabeth : jake said he killed sam .

[ scene_break ] anna : so , paul helped carlos escape from robert and me . why is he so important to paul ? andré : well , we know paul was using carlos ' supposed death as a way to control you . anna : which still begs the question why . i mean , at first , i thought it was just a cover - up , because there was the body that was misidentified as carlos , so that he could close the case . and i was the only inconvenient person that could get in the way of the official story holding up . andré : so now you feel differently ? anna : yeah . now i just have the sense that paul has a much larger agenda , and somehow i figure into it . andré : well , perhaps he 's seeking a way to keep you neutralized , so you ca n't go after him for something else he 's done or is doing or plans to do . anna : yeah , that makes sense . uh , he certainly wants me in his pocket . andré : or ... maybe he just wants you , period . [ footsteps approaching ] jordan : andré ! oh , my god , i 'm so sorry i 'm late for our date . something actually came up to -- [ scene_break ] elizabeth : of course , i know jake did n't mean he literally killed sam . franco : okay . uh , medication can do wacky things to a brain . elizabeth : [ sighs ] i think he 's confusing her with the bad guys in his video games , because he said he hates those guys and he hates her , which is kind of freaking me out , because is n't he a little young to be saying stuff like that ? franco : i do n't know why he would say that . jake 's probably really hurt and really angry that you 're no longer with his dad . elizabeth : [ sighs ] franco : right ? and sam 's just the target of that anger . elizabeth : but why -- why is she the target ? why sam ? franco : well , is n't sam kind of the target of your anger ? elizabeth : [ sighs ] well , i thought i was being careful . i - i thought ... i made a point of making sure the boys were n't in the room during painful conversations . but , clearly , i failed . clearly , jake has seen and heard more than any kid his age should . and i 've been so busy being upset over losing jason that i did n't notice what he was picking up about my feelings for sam . franco : okay , elizabeth . elizabeth : his anger for her is from me .

[ chuckles ] i do n't want to owe you . i do n't want to feel obligated to you . and i do n't want to waste another minute thinking about you . [ sets box down ] i just want to pay you off and part ties . paul : dillon , can we just sit and talk about this , please ? dillon : look , we talked about this . i said everything i wanted to say to you in the restaurant that day , okay ? i 'm just here to tie up loose ends . paul : but i do n't care about the damn cufflinks , and neither do you ! dillon : [ sighs ] paul : now , you may think you do n't want to talk , but i got a feeling that you came here , because you do n't want to walk away . and i know that i 'm not going to . i would like to have a relationship with you . flawed as i may be , i 'm the only father that you 've got . and walking away is n't gon na change that . dillon : all right . you can tell me something , then . i asked you a question that day in the restaurant , and you never really answered . paul : i do n't know what you 're talking about . dillon : you came back in my life . you came back in my mom 's life . you acted like you wanted to make amends . you talked about being a father , being a friend , after all these years . you made me believe that you took this job in town so that you could be close to me and close to my mom , but it is obvious that you do n't care about us any more than you ever did . so tell me now -- why did you really come back to port charles ?

[ scene_break ] michael : i 'm still angry with sabrina for lying to me , but not enough to just move on without ever talking to her again . look , i just -- i just need to see her face - to - face . i just need to be with her . that 's the only way i 'll find out if there 's still a chance for us . carly : okay , but i thought the postcard that sabrina sent you made it clear that she was moving on . michael : mom . carly : i 'm sorry , but sabrina chose to go be with her family and have her baby in puerto rico without you . michael : you do n't understand . carly : i do . i understand more than you realize , michael . when i was pregnant with you , i lied about who the father was , so i 'm in no position to judge sabrina . but i just always felt like you guys were consoling each other . you both had been hurt , and you both were alone , and it was great that you guys could be there for each other , but it just does n't seem like it 's a really good foundation for a lasting relationship . i 'm sorry . i mean , that 's -- that 's just how i feel about this . and i think that sabrina figured it out , too . and i think you need to honor her choice , here . sonny : michael , for what it 's worth , i agree with your mother . [ scene_break ] franco : okay , i probably know more than anybody about growing up screwed up . i 'm kind of an expert , so you should listen to me . and , elizabeth , you are not a bad mother . the woman who raised me -- okay , very sweet , very well- intentioned , but she completely lost touch with reality . and i learned early on that whatever feelings i had , whatever i thought , i had to keep them to myself , because i had to prop her up . i could n't do or say anything that might pop the bubble of her delusion , which is not a healthy way for anyone to live their life . and then , when i met my birth mother -- well , everybody knows she 's a lunatic , right ? [ sighs ] so here -- here 's my point , right ? elizabeth : mm . franco : [ sighs ] you are not like either of those mothers . you have a firm grasp of reality , and you clearly love jake a lot . elizabeth : then why did n't i listen to you the other night when you came to me , and you wanted to talk about jake 's drawings ? because you mentioned sam 's name . and my hatred for her made me put you off . franco : yeah , okay , fine . look , you -- you did n't trust me . no surprise there , right ? i think the combination of having me there and somebody mentioning sam kind of pushed you over some kind of an edge . elizabeth : but if i had listened , maybe i would have been home before he ran away . and maybe ... he would n't have been in the street . he would n't have gotten hit by a car , and he would n't be in a hospital room recovering from surgery . but i did n't . it 's like i did n't realize that my feelings were affecting my kid . franco : okay . all right , here 's the thing , okay ? you can either beat yourself up and blame yourself , or you can be there for your son , all right ? and i think we both know what the important thing is for you to do right now . no matter what jake is thinking or feeling , he needs you . i 'm sure , in his way , he probably needs jason , too . i do n't know . but , elizabeth -- hey ! you -- hey ! you 're a mom . cut it out . stop hating yourself . elizabeth : thank you .

[ grunts ] [ siren wailing ] [ scene_break ] michael : are n't you the one who told me repeatedly not to just walk away from sabrina ? carly : you did ? ! sonny : okay , we talked before she sent the postcard . your mom 's right on this . carly : [ sighs ] sonny : you ca n't make sabrina want you to be the baby 's father , michael . carly : okay , michael , you 're a born fixer , and i know you want to fix sabrina , but that 's not love . sonny : no matter how much you want to support sabrina and the baby , she 's made her choice . you got to honor that . [ scene_break ] jordan : so , paul brings me into his office just before i was leaving to come here , which is why i was late to meet andré . anna : what did he want ? jordan : he did a passable job of making it seem like he was , you know , legitimately concerned about a case . but then he blind - sided me with all kinds of questions about you . anna : such as ... ? jordan : when was the last time that we talked ? have i heard from you ? he made it seem like he was worried about you . anna : yeah , he 's not . he just wants to know what i 've been up to . jordan : well , i told him that we have n't talked recently , and i thought that you were off having a good time visiting robin . anna : how did he respond to that ? jordan : he did n't believe it , not for a second . in fact , if we had n't been interrupted , he would have still been grilling me about you . anna : i 'm so sorry . jordan : no , it 's fine . i - i just want you to know you are still very much on his radar . anna : thank you for the heads up . jordan : of course . so , what are you gon na do ? anna : i guess i 'm just gon na get ready for him . [ scene_break ] paul : i truly came back to port charles to make amends with you and your mother . now , i admit that i may have given your mother mistaken impressions of what i wanted our relationship to be , but i - i - i did n't make any promises to her . we were n't married , nor even committed . dillon : you led her on ! paul : that 's her story . those are her feelings . there 's two sides to every story , son . dillon : yeah , well , maybe , but i 'm not interested in hearing your side anymore , okay ? paul : dillon , i know i made mistakes , both when you were an infant and -- and now as an adult . [ sighs ] and the sad thing is , i came back to port charles thinking i at least knew what not to do . and i know i do n't speak of her often , but i miss your sister susan terribly . and your half - brother , pj -- now that he 's in college , i hardly ever speak to him , and i do n't want that to happen with you . i want this time with you , while we have the chance . i have loved seeing you and your passion for movie - making and how you care for people and how they care for you . you and i got to a good place once , and i know we can get there again if you just give me another chance , son . dillon : i 'm sorry , dad . some things are just ... un - fixable . enjoy the cufflinks . paul : [ sighs ] dillon ! wait !

[ scene_break ] jordan : i 'm sorry . you 're worried about anna ? paul : yes , i would think you would be , as well , given that you two are friends . now , i would think that anna would be missing her granddaughter and her daughter terribly . jordan : and duke . paul : absolutely . yeah . yeah . i know that , uh , anna 's visiting robin , and i - i just hope that , uh , seeing her daughter 's new life wo n't be too hard on her . and how is her trip going ? jordan : i would n't know . i have n't spoken to her . paul : well , a - a - are you saying that anna has n't even texted you since she left town ? i mean , w - when was the last time you guys spoke ? jordan : uh , i really ca n't be too sure . um ... paul : dillon ? dillon : is this a bad time ? jordan : um , not at all . i actually have to get going . um ... paul : yeah , great . great . we 'll pick up this conversation at a later date . jordan : perfect . and , um , i 'm really glad to be able to help you with this case . i 'll have that file on your desk by the morning . paul : i have no doubt . well , this is quite a surprise , and a welcome one . i 'm glad to see you , son . dillon : do n't be . [ scene_break ] franco : we can talk in here . elizabeth : what am i gon na do about jake ? how am i gon na help him ? franco : okay , catch me up , because all i know is that he was hit by a car and that he needed surgery . elizabeth : the surgeons were able to address his internal injuries , but he 's -- he 's got broken bones . he 's gon na need to see an orthopedist . and everybody 's saying his long - term prognosis is good , which is -- which is good , physically , at least . franco : you 're worried about more than his physical condition . elizabeth : [ sighs ] you know about his emotional issues . franco : well , yeah , i mean , i have an idea . elizabeth : okay , so , i was talking to him just now ... franco : yeah , i know . elizabeth : ... and he was saying some really bizarre , disturbing things . clearly , he 's mixing fantasy with -- with these deep , upsetting emotions . franco : well , he 's probably high as a kite , right ? i mean , what kind of drugs do they have him on ? elizabeth : oh , trust me , i 've heard some pretty crazy things from patients who are being medicated like he is . franco : okay . elizabeth : so i know . franco : well , then , why are you so worried ?

[ scene_break ] anna : so , paul helped carlos escape from robert and me . why is he so important to paul ? andré : well , we know paul was using carlos ' supposed death as a way to control you . anna : which still begs the question why . i mean , at first , i thought it was just a cover - up , because there was the body that was misidentified as carlos , so that he could close the case . and i was the only inconvenient person that could get in the way of the official story holding up . andré : so now you feel differently ? anna : yeah . now i just have the sense that paul has a much larger agenda , and somehow i figure into it . andré : well , perhaps he 's seeking a way to keep you neutralized , so you ca n't go after him for something else he 's done or is doing or plans to do . anna : yeah , that makes sense . uh , he certainly wants me in his pocket . andré : or ... maybe he just wants you , period .

[ scene_break ] michael : i 'm still angry with sabrina for lying to me , but not enough to just move on without ever talking to her again . look , i just -- i just need to see her face - to - face . i just need to be with her . that 's the only way i 'll find out if there 's still a chance for us . carly : okay , but i thought the postcard that sabrina sent you made it clear that she was moving on . michael : mom . carly : i 'm sorry , but sabrina chose to go be with her family and have her baby in puerto rico without you . michael : you do n't understand . carly : i do . i understand more than you realize , michael . when i was pregnant with you , i lied about who the father was , so i 'm in no position to judge sabrina . but i just always felt like you guys were consoling each other . you both had been hurt , and you both were alone , and it was great that you guys could be there for each other , but it just does n't seem like it 's a really good foundation for a lasting relationship . i 'm sorry . i mean , that 's -- that 's just how i feel about this . and i think that sabrina figured it out , too . and i think you need to honor her choice , here . sonny : michael , for what it 's worth , i agree with your mother . [ scene_break ] franco : okay , i probably know more than anybody about growing up screwed up . i 'm kind of an expert , so you should listen to me . and , elizabeth , you are not a bad mother . the woman who raised me -- okay , very sweet , very well- intentioned , but she completely lost touch with reality . and i learned early on that whatever feelings i had , whatever i thought , i had to keep them to myself , because i had to prop her up . i could n't do or say anything that might pop the bubble of her delusion , which is not a healthy way for anyone to live their life . and then , when i met my birth mother -- well , everybody knows she 's a lunatic , right ? [ sighs ] so here -- here 's my point , right ? elizabeth : mm . franco : [ sighs ] you are not like either of those mothers . you have a firm grasp of reality , and you clearly love jake a lot . elizabeth : then why did n't i listen to you the other night when you came to me , and you wanted to talk about jake 's drawings ? because you mentioned sam 's name . and my hatred for her made me put you off . franco : yeah , okay , fine . look , you -- you did n't trust me . no surprise there , right ? i think the combination of having me there and somebody mentioning sam kind of pushed you over some kind of an edge . elizabeth : but if i had listened , maybe i would have been home before he ran away . and maybe ... he would n't have been in the street . he would n't have gotten hit by a car , and he would n't be in a hospital room recovering from surgery . but i did n't . it 's like i did n't realize that my feelings were affecting my kid . franco : okay . all right , here 's the thing , okay ? you can either beat yourself up and blame yourself , or you can be there for your son , all right ? and i think we both know what the important thing is for you to do right now . no matter what jake is thinking or feeling , he needs you . i 'm sure , in his way , he probably needs jason , too . i do n't know . but , elizabeth -- hey ! you -- hey ! you 're a mom . cut it out . stop hating yourself . elizabeth : thank you .

[ scene_break ] jordan : so , paul brings me into his office just before i was leaving to come here , which is why i was late to meet andré . anna : what did he want ? jordan : he did a passable job of making it seem like he was , you know , legitimately concerned about a case . but then he blind - sided me with all kinds of questions about you . anna : such as ... ? jordan : when was the last time that we talked ? have i heard from you ? he made it seem like he was worried about you . anna : yeah , he 's not . he just wants to know what i 've been up to . jordan : well , i told him that we have n't talked recently , and i thought that you were off having a good time visiting robin . anna : how did he respond to that ? jordan : he did n't believe it , not for a second . in fact , if we had n't been interrupted , he would have still been grilling me about you . anna : i 'm so sorry . jordan : no , it 's fine . i - i just want you to know you are still very much on his radar . anna : thank you for the heads up . jordan : of course . so , what are you gon na do ? anna : i guess i 'm just gon na get ready for him . [ scene_break ] paul : i truly came back to port charles to make amends with you and your mother . now , i admit that i may have given your mother mistaken impressions of what i wanted our relationship to be , but i - i - i did n't make any promises to her . we were n't married , nor even committed . dillon : you led her on ! paul : that 's her story . those are her feelings . there 's two sides to every story , son . dillon : yeah , well , maybe , but i 'm not interested in hearing your side anymore , okay ? paul : dillon , i know i made mistakes , both when you were an infant and -- and now as an adult . [ sighs ] and the sad thing is , i came back to port charles thinking i at least knew what not to do . and i know i do n't speak of her often , but i miss your sister susan terribly . and your half - brother , pj -- now that he 's in college , i hardly ever speak to him , and i do n't want that to happen with you . i want this time with you , while we have the chance . i have loved seeing you and your passion for movie - making and how you care for people and how they care for you . you and i got to a good place once , and i know we can get there again if you just give me another chance , son . dillon : i 'm sorry , dad . some things are just ... un - fixable . enjoy the cufflinks . paul : [ sighs ] dillon ! wait !

[ gasping ] harding : [ grunting ] paul : you okay ? dylan : yeah . i 'm fine . harding : [ grunting continues ] dylan : you wanted this . now talk . why 'd you kill those kids ? who are you working for ? ! harding : [ grunting continues ] jack : if i 'd made the right choice , this scum would be lying in a pool of blood on the floor right now . victor : you 're not a murderer , jack . your conscience would n't allow it . jack : my conscience would have been just fine with it . victor : i will take care of things from here . jack : no . i 'm not finished with him yet . and i 'm not gon na kill you ... yet . i want to hear you confess . marco : you think you have it all figured out , do n't you , jackie ? according to you , i 'm the mastermind of some intricate , diabolical plot against you and half the people in genoa city , right ? phyllis : are you denying that you took jack 's place , using his power and his position ? marco : i 'm not gon na deny anything . i 'm merely setting the record straight . and for the record ... i was n't working alone . abby : how was your salmon ? stitch : it was good . abby : really ? um , i thought that , uh -- stitch : no , it was fine . abby : oh , 'cause -- 'cause you hardly touched it . stitch : i guess i was n't as hungry as i thought i was . abby : not very talkative , either . i 'm not criticizing . i just -- i noticed . stitch : yeah . i 'm sorry . i 'm beat . it was a long day at the hospital . abby : with what ? i mean , can you talk about it ? i would love to hear about your day . stitch : yeah . it was just , you know -- it was just the usual stuff -- rounds , a lot of patients , and ... [ yawns ] abby : right . well , if you 're really tired , we could always go back to our room and turn in . stitch : you know what ? it 's a gorgeous night out there . let 's , uh -- let 's go up to the roof first , have a nightcap . sharon : damn it ! i ca n't see the screen . what is happening ? a shot was fired . you heard that , right ? mariah : you 've got to calm down . you 've got to calm down . kevin : dylan 's okay . dylan 's okay . sharon : thank god . kevin : paul is fine , too . summer : what about harding ? kevin : he 's down . looks like he 's been hit . mariah : how bad is it ? kevin : i ca n't tell , but it does n't look like he 's walking away from this . noah : good . i just hope he goes to jail for the rest of his miserable life . it 's not gon na bring austin and courtney back , but ... at least they 'll get some justice . harding : in the cabin -- [ grunting ] dylan : what ? what ? just say it . who was it ? who hired you ? was it marco ? harding : [ breathing heavily ] paul : that 's right . all right . emts are on their way . dylan : they 'd better hurry . harding ! come on ! stay with us ! harding ! sharon : what 's happening now ? kevin : there 's a blind spot , and i can only pivot the camera so far . noah : but he ca n't get away , though , right ? kevin : i need to see what 's going on . excuse me . mariah : kevin , no . paul and dylan can handle this ! noah : i 'm going with him , okay ? just stay right here . i 'll call you as soon as i know something . mariah : what , only boys can go ? sharon : [ crying ] mariah : hey . hey . we know that dylan is safe , okay ? so just try to relax . take a few breaths . sharon : i 'm not gon na know that for sure until i see dylan myself . mariah : i wish i could be there , too . i mean , this is the guy who terrorized us for months . he 's responsible for austin and courtney 's death . summer : i want to see this through to the end , if only to tell harding how much i hate him . sharon : then let 's go . let 's do this . what are we waiting for ? summer : yeah . sharon : [ groans softly ] [ exhales sharply ] abby : oh , my god . is that harding ? paul : oh , no . you 're gon na have to go downstairs . doc , we could use your help . abby , please . stitch : i 'll be right down . paul : please . stitch : all right . what happened ? dylan : gunshot wound , abdomen . stitch : give me some room . give me some room . dylan : yeah . stitch : [ sighs ] dylan : you okay ? paul : yeah . i 'm all right . i 'm just a little shaky , that 's all . you ? dylan : yeah . fine . i was just getting a little jumpy , you know ? he pointed the gun at you . i felt like i had to do something . it was probably stupid , but -- paul : yeah , it was -- really stupid . but thanks . so ... what happened up here before i arrived ? dylan : right . after you and chris left the restaurant , kevin tapped in to the hotel surveillance system , and he found harding on the roof . and then when i got here , he was on the phone , trying to get his hands on a passport . paul : okay . well , we 'll get ahold of his phone , and , uh , we can see who he was calling . maybe it 'll lead right to annicelli . who knows ? victor : you point all the fingers you want . i would never knowingly hurt my grandchildren by killing those they loved . marco : are you really trying to claim that your hands are clean when everyone in this room knows you 're the one who found me , who brought me here to replace your rival ? victor : you decided to play by your own rules -- rules allowing murder . marco : i did n't kill those kids . phyllis : if you did n't , then who did ? marco : one of genoa city 's finest -- detective mark harding . jack : wait . you 're blaming an officer who got wounded trying to catch you ? phyllis : that is a load of crap . why would an officer of the law get mixed up with someone like you ? marco : a question only a wealthy person would ask . jack : did you know your partner had a dirty cop on the payroll ? victor : absolutely not . marco : being jack abbott was a full - time job . i hired harding to tie up certain loose ends . jack : what do you mean ? what loose ends ? marco : those two young people -- the filmmaker and the policewoman . each stumbled onto the fact that there was more than one jack in town . they had video proof . i hired harding to get rid of the evidence . phyllis : you ordered a hit on my daughter 's husband ? marco : oh , please . i would n't waste my time . no . harding 's the one that eliminated travers , and too bad he did n't get rid of the computer files . so , when officer sloane stumbled onto the video , he silenced her , too . that was his plan , not mine . and all of the cover - ups after , including poor , unfortunate tobias gray -- that was harding , too . no . he did n't consult me . he did what he could to protect my secrets , and he was paid very handsomely for it . victor : those young people are dead because you were careless . marco : no , boss . those people are dead ... because your plan had to be protected at all costs . victor : do n't you lay the blame at my feet . jack : that 's exactly where it belongs . jack : think about it . this would n't be the first time you brought someone into town to wreak havoc on my life and then claim to have no responsibility for the collateral damage . this time you caused three deaths , including your granddaughter 's husband and your grandson 's bride . hell , i would have been the fourth casualty if it had n't been for marisa 's help . marco : oh , i 'm sure marisa gave him plenty of help in lots of areas . jack : you shut up . i accept your claim that marco 's the one that took this to a more violent level . he may not have pulled the trigger , but he did n't give a damn about the lives of any of those people , as long as he kept his secret about his identity . marco : okay , okay ! we 've established that i 'm a big , bad devil . what are we gon na do about it , boys ? what 's next ? you gon na take me into town , take me to the police station ? oh , but then you 'd have to tell them about your part in it . and you 'd have to explain all those bodies you left behind in your wake when you got back to genoa city . marisa : in self - defense . marco : oh , and you 're the witness ? how credible . how many times have you lied since you woke up this morning ? victor : there 's another option . marco : and what is that , vic ? victor : i have a very fitting end in mind for you . dylan : [ breathing heavily ] this is it . this is all they had downstairs . stitch : it 's no use . he 's gone . dylan : [ sighs ] now we 'll never know the whole story . paul : [ sighs ] you know i did n't have a choice . if i did n't shoot , he would have shot you . i was n't about to lose my son . noah : mom . kevin : what are you doing here ? noah : i told you to wait . mariah : we deserve to be a part of this . abby : all we know is that detective harding was shot again . ben . oh , thank god you 're okay ! kevin : which we already knew . summer : okay . well , what 's happening upstairs ? abby : yeah . we saw the ambulance pull up . stitch : detective harding is dead . kevin : h - h - he 's dead ? noah : well , did harding confess before he died ? dylan : he definitely implied involvement . did n't deny killing anybody , but he died before he could tell us why or who he was working with . abby : so , this is really over ? dylan : i believe harding killed austin , courtney , and tobias gray . [ sighs ] look , i got to get to the station and make my statement , okay ? sharon : okay . dylan : i 'll see you at home later . sharon : okay . abby : it kind of freaks me out . stitch : hey , it 'll be okay . like dylan said , it 's over . abby : yeah , it 's just , i mean , he seemed like a normal guy . he kissed me on new year 's eve . stitch : harding kissed you ? abby : it did n't mean anything . nothing came from it . but it 's just creepy to know that i was that close to a murderer . stitch : [ sighs ] abby : are you okay ? stitch : i 'm fine . sharon : i hope you both at least gained some closure . noah : yeah , it helps , having some answers . summer : yeah , some , anyways . mariah : you still have questions . kevin : yes . so , harding was the killer ... which means he probably set up sharon and tobias , too , but none of that explains what marco annicelli had to do with any of this . marco : what are you going to do to me ? victor : i 'm gon na be sending you straight to hell . abby : i 'm free ! there 's no more threats hanging over my head , and i feel like celebrating . but you do n't . i understand . i mean , for me , it was like this weight was lifted , but for you , you feel awful because you could n't save the man . stitch : yeah . i 'm just -- i 'm just glad the killer 's out of commission and you 're safe . abby : me , too . and since i am safe ... i do n't need a bodyguard anymore . we really only moved in together because kevin thought that the drug lord was the murderer , and now that theory is kaput , so ... we do n't need to be holed up in this hotel anymore . stitch : i wo n't miss the bodyguard thing , although the part about being holed up together -- i got to admit , that kind of felt good . abby : yeah . it 's just the thing is , um ... i 'm gon na go home ... to my house ... alone . noah : marisa 's not picking up . it just goes straight to voicemail . i think she should know about harding . summer : i still can not believe that a police detective could have done such horrible things . noah : well , it made it easier for him to frame people , cover his tracks . summer : yeah , but why ? that 's what i do n't get . noah : the same reason we suspected everybody else . austin had something damning enough on his computer that harding was willing to kill for it rather than let it get out . kevin : and the dna mistake and marco annicelli being in town at the time of the murders -- are those just coincidences ? summer : well , clearly , you do n't think so . kevin : you 're right . i do n't . mariah : i thought you were going home . sharon : i 'm just too antsy just thinking about dylan putting his life on the line . mariah : sharon , he 's safe now . sharon : oh , i know , but -- ugh . mariah : what 's wrong ? sharon : nothing . it 's just a little cramp . i had one earlier . i 'm sure it 'll pass . mariah : should you call your doctor ? sharon : um ... you know what ? it 's probably just stress , but , um , you know , maybe you 're right . i 'll just -- i 'll have it checked out . mariah : mom , i can take you to the doctor right now . you can call dylan on the way . sharon : no , no , honey . that 's not necessary . you know , i 'm just being cautious . would you mind putting all these papers away for me in the office ? mariah : yeah , sure . sharon : [ sighs ] paul : you know ... how it goes down . everything happened so fast . i , um -- i could n't assess the situation at first . all i -- all i could see was dylan , the gun . christine : and you thought of ricky . paul : yeah , for a split second , yeah . i mean , you know , same scenario . i reacted instinctively , but instead of shooting my son to save someone else , i shot someone else ... to save my son . you know , if i were too late , i do n't know what i would have done . christine : you were n't too late . dylan 's still here . and maybe saving your other son 's life will give you permission to forgive yourself . [ knock on door ] paul : yeah ? come in . dylan : hey . hey , chris . christine : hi . i heard you had quite a night . dylan : i 'm not gon na apologize for going after harding , a guy who killed three people . christine : we should have listened to you and gotten the warrant . harding would be arrested , and paul would n't have been put in the position he was in . dylan : i get it . you had to play by the rules . christine : um , i 'm gon na return some calls , okay ? paul : okay . thanks . christine : yeah . you 're gon na make a great cop . paul : [ sighs heavily ] dylan : harding may be dead ... but this is far from over . marco : [ groans softly ] victor : shh , shh , shh , shh , shh , shh , shh , shh . death would be too good for you , too easy for you . you 're going back to that hellhole of a prison cell in peru . phyllis : those nightmares you had when you were screaming in spanish -- you seemed so tormented . i 'm sure that 's what you were dreaming of . victor : you take him to my helicopter . that will take you to the airstrip , to my jet . you put him on that jet , and you fly to lima , peru , where my people are waiting for you . if he gives you any trouble , shoot him . no one will miss this scum . marco : i look forward to seeing all of you again soon . i promise you it will happen . phyllis : in the meantime , i hope you start munching on some cockroaches in that dark hellhole of yours for the next 30 years ! marisa : vete al infierno . [ smooches ] victor : get him out of here now . jack : you put your life at risk , trapping marco here . i do n't know how we can ever thank you enough . phyllis : yes . we owe you . marisa : well , i want to see him rot as much as you do . victor : boy . all a little too late , is n't it ? had you told me you were in contact with marco , it would have solved all of this . marisa : i did n't know where marco was then . victor : really ? but you were in contact with him , were n't you ? marisa : it was just a message . i could n't be sure it was him . victor : if you had told me even about the message , we would have found that sob . ! we would n't have been in this trouble ! you lied to me ! do n't ever lie to me . abby : until today ... i needed you , or i thought i needed you , to keep me safe . but i 'm safe now , and i 'm stronger , and ... i told you that i wanted this to be a real relationship . i need to feel like -- like you need me . stitch : i do need you . abby : really ? because when i pushed you on it , you finally opened up to me . you told me how you felt about losing your patient . but then you went back into your cocoon . and you put these walls up that i ca n't break through . and i want you to talk to me . i want you to tell me your deepest thoughts and your deepest feelings . i care about you , ben , and i wish that this could work out . do you know how easy it would be if you just came home with me and you kept taking care of me ? but i am fully capable of functioning on my own . i do n't need you to take care of me . and i feel like it would be better to actually be alone than to feel as alone as i do when i 'm with you sometimes . i guess i 'll go pack . stitch : abby , wait ! marisa : so , you 're gon na put me on the same plane as marco ? is that it ? jack : no . no . he sure as hell is not . you did everything you could to help me get back to phyllis , and i owe you . and you owe me . victor : you 're being naive right now . she can not be trusted . jack : i trust her . if she lied , she lied for good reason . she was victimized by marco , as well . look , if she wants to start her life over , we owe it to her to give her a chance . victor : you do n't reveal any of this . do you understand ? you do n't reveal how you came to town with jack abbott ... or what happened here just now . not a word to anyone . you keep your mouth shut , you 'll bell right . if you do n't ... noah : i mean , it 's possible that harding acted alone and this whole annicelli thing is just a coincidence . kevin : yeah . i do n't like coincidences -- for instance , marisa disappearing at the same time harding gets exposed . noah : marisa had nothing to do with harding . kevin : yeah , if you say so . noah : i ca n't believe you 're still digging . we know for a fact that harding is guilty . mariah : we may never have all of the details , like what was on austin 's computer that harding was so determined to keep secret . but you 're right . i mean , the killer 's finally been caught , and we can get justice for austin and courtney . summer : justice ? that 's not justice . justice would have been if harding had gone on trial . then our questions would have been answered . mariah : maybe . we 'll never know . but the important thing is we 're safe now . we can stop looking over our shoulders . noah : i agree . case closed . dylan : did you get anything off of harding 's phone ? paul : no , afraid not . whoever he called about the passport was using a burner phone . dylan : ah . so , uh , when i confronted harding before you showed up , i asked him who ... paid him to murder those kids . and he said that i had it all wrong , that they were n't hits . he was talking about hush money -- how somebody was paying him to keep secrets . paul : annicelli ? dylan : that would be my guess , which brings us back ... to motive . what secret was harding protecting ? paul : right . well , we 'll go over everything and see what we can find out . dylan : well , i 'd like to help if i can . paul : okay . that , uh ... [ sighs ] you know , why do n't we talk about this later ? it 's been a long night . go home and get some rest . dylan : you first . you 're not even supposed to be here . paul : [ chuckles ] yeah , so chris keeps telling me . you know what ? she was right about something else . you have amazing instincts , and you 're gon na make a terrific cop . and , you know , with all your military experience , i 'll be able to fast - track the process . you 'll get your badge in no time . you know something , dylan ? i , uh ... i ca n't tell you how proud i am that we 're gon na be working side by side . doctor : i 'm sorry for your loss , sharon . but the good news is you 're healthy . there 's no reason why you ca n't try to conceive again . sharon : [ crying ] what 's all this ? dylan : it 's just , uh , my way of saying that i 'm sorry . sharon : what do you mean ? dylan : well , i listened to your voicemail . sharon : dylan , i was scared that -- dylan : i know . i know . i know you were . i know . and then i saw your face earlier , after harding was shot . [ sighs ] sharon , just -- it made me realize that i was n't just putting my life ... in danger , that i could be jeopardizing ... our future ... and our baby 's future . so , i just , you know -- i just want to say that i 'm sorry for that . sharon : um ... dylan ... dylan : no , let me -- just let me finish . i - i never ... shied away from danger . but i just -- you know , i just have so much to lose right now , and i do n't want to risk the one thing that i 've always wanted , and that 's a family of my own . so , i have decided that i 'm not gon na join the force after all . sharon : but you were so passionate about it and about doing something that mattered and doing something that you 've wanted since you were a kid . dylan : yeah , that 's -- that 's right . that 's right . but ... i mean , we are bringing a new life into the world together . i mean , i 'm -- i 'm -- i 'm gon na be a dad . how much more important does it get than that ? stitch : i do n't mean to hurt you or shut you out . it 's just it 's hard for me to talk about myself . i spent most of my life lying about who i was . i could n't afford to open up -- to anyone . abby : well , you managed to open up to victoria and my mom . stitch : it 's different with you . i 'm more protective of you . abby : why ? why ? what 's the worst thing that could happen if you gave me a glimpse of the real ben ? stitch : you could learn something that frightens you and run like hell . i have lost so many people in my life -- my dad , my mom ... who -- who -- who vanished without a word , my sister ... guys i was in the army with that i fought beside . my wife divorced me and took our son to the other side of the planet . today on my lunch break ... i got to video - chat with him . i heard all about his mom 's fabulous new boyfriend . abby : that 's why you were so quiet at dinner . stitch : talking about this stuff brings up a lot of hurt and anger . abby : and you think you 're gon na scare me ? stitch : it scares me . but the thought of losing you when you turned to leave just now -- it terrified me , abby . so , if you just -- if you give me another chance , i will try so hard to let you in . just ... i just got to figure out how to start . abby : i think you just did . summer : kyle called twice . mariah : where is he again ? summer : new york , for a business trip . i think i need to tell him about harding . noah : kevin , give it a rest . come on . kevin : i did n't say anything . noah : i can hear your mind reeling from here . it 's over . just let it be over , please . mariah : excuse me . kevin is the person that suspected harding in the first place , and if he had n't been so tenacious , we might all still be in danger . kevin : i just feel like there 's a piece here that is not fitting . noah : marisa . marisa : hi . noah : where have you been ? ! i 've been so worried about you ! victor : i do n't think it needs saying , but whatever happened here stays amongst ourselves , all right ? jack : what , are you kidding ? victor : no . jack : you really think i 'm gon na let you get away with what you did to me now that the merger 's undone , now that marco 's being punished , now that you basically confessed to all of us what you did ? i have a very important story to tell the authorities about how you damn near eliminated me from the face of the earth ! victor : do n't leave out the other half of the story , jack -- how you killed kelly andrews in her sleep and caused an explosion on board that ship , killing all kinds of crewmembers . jack : okay , okay . you 've been holding that over my head for quite a while now . it 's not gon na work . you and i both know those charges are n't gon na stick . victor : you think about it ! you 're an intelligent man . how do you think some judge in some backwater , sweltering , banana republic country is gon na deal with you ? he 'll look at you and say , `` oh , he 's an american , a yank ... who killed an innocent tourist and a couple of dozen of my countrymen . `` what do you think he 's gon na do ? once you 're extradited , all bets are off . you would be a fool to gamble with your life that way . jack : i 'll take my chances overseas . that means you 're gon na pay for what you did . victor : who are you calling ? jack : who do you think ? paul williams . phyllis : no . no . that is too much of a risk , jack . jack : wait , red . phyllis : we have been separated since our wedding . maybe you can survive sitting in a caribbean jail cell , waiting to stand trial , but i ca n't . i ca n't lose you again . after all of this time we have been separated , we 're finally getting a chance to start our life over again . baby ... what happened to you , what happened to us , is beyond horrible . i do n't know if i 'm ever gon na forgive victor for doing this . but all i want is to live out the promises we made to each other when we said , `` i do . `` so , please , for the love of god , do not throw our future away just to get back at victor . please . abby : i 'm so sorry , ben . stitch : now that jenna knows the truth about my past , she 's loosened up some about me talking to max on the phone . i can video - chat more often . abby : but ... stitch : but still . abby : yeah . it 's not the same as seeing him , holding him in your arms . how could it be ? hey , why do n't we take a trip to australia ? stitch : that 'd be great . abby : shall we go pack ? stitch : what ? i - i - i just got reinstated back at memorial . i mean , we ca n't just drop everything and take off now . abby : no ... but we can make the trip to my house ... together . marisa : where was i ? uh , i was just -- i headed out to -- summer : kyle was shocked to hear about harding . marisa : well , what about harding ? kevin : he 's dead . marisa : dead ? what happened ? noah : paul williams shot him . kevin : of course , it 's possible he was working with marco annicelli , who is still out there . marisa : marco wo n't be a problem anymore . noah : how do you know that ? marisa : i just do . jack : i do n't want to be taken from you , either , but victor nearly destroyed our lives . phyllis : please do not risk this . jack : i ca n't stand the idea of him getting away with this . but it appears victor and i are gon na have to find a way to coexist . phyllis : thank you . thank you . jack : listen , there is one other concern , victor . marco escaped once . who 's to say he wo n't escape again and steal my life one more time ? victor : i 've taken certain measures to make sure that wo n't happen . we 'll be able to identify him . marco : [ groaning softly ] christine : normally when people go on leave , they do n't spend it all at work . paul : i belong here , chris . i 'm sure you can see that . you know , if i had been on the job , maybe -- christine : do n't blame yourself . what happened happened . [ sighs ] but i can see sitting on the sidelines is slowly driving you insane , so if you want to call your doctor and talk about coming back to work on a limited schedule , i 'm not gon na fight you on that -- a schedule that i will make sure conveniently coincides with mine . paul : [ chuckles ] thanks . and thank you for being so supportive of dylan . christine : i meant what i said . i think he 's gon na be a great cop . [ sighs ] and , selfishly speaking , it will be nice to have someone else around here who loves you like i do ... to keep an eye on you . sharon : i do n't want you making any rash decisions , especially tonight . dylan : no . it 's -- it 's the right thing . [ sighs ] just as i 'm sure ... about this . sharon : [ gasps ] dylan : sharon ... i want to marry you . will you be my wife ? [ chuckles ] you 're gon na -- you 're gon na keep me in suspense , huh ? sharon : [ chuckles ] [ chuckles ] dylan : i 'm -- i 'm hoping those are tears of joy and , uh , a `` yes `` ? sharon : [ crying ] yes . yes , yes , yes , yes , i will marry you . dylan : mmm .

[ yawns ] abby : right . well , if you 're really tired , we could always go back to our room and turn in . stitch : you know what ? it 's a gorgeous night out there . let 's , uh -- let 's go up to the roof first , have a nightcap . sharon : damn it ! i ca n't see the screen . what is happening ? a shot was fired . you heard that , right ? mariah : you 've got to calm down . you 've got to calm down . kevin : dylan 's okay . dylan 's okay . sharon : thank god . kevin : paul is fine , too . summer : what about harding ? kevin : he 's down . looks like he 's been hit . mariah : how bad is it ? kevin : i ca n't tell , but it does n't look like he 's walking away from this . noah : good . i just hope he goes to jail for the rest of his miserable life . it 's not gon na bring austin and courtney back , but ... at least they 'll get some justice . harding : in the cabin -- [ grunting ] dylan : what ? what ? just say it . who was it ? who hired you ? was it marco ? harding : [ breathing heavily ] paul : that 's right . all right . emts are on their way . dylan : they 'd better hurry . harding ! come on ! stay with us ! harding ! sharon : what 's happening now ? kevin : there 's a blind spot , and i can only pivot the camera so far . noah : but he ca n't get away , though , right ? kevin : i need to see what 's going on . excuse me . mariah : kevin , no . paul and dylan can handle this ! noah : i 'm going with him , okay ? just stay right here . i 'll call you as soon as i know something . mariah : what , only boys can go ? sharon : [ crying ] mariah : hey . hey . we know that dylan is safe , okay ? so just try to relax . take a few breaths . sharon : i 'm not gon na know that for sure until i see dylan myself . mariah : i wish i could be there , too . i mean , this is the guy who terrorized us for months . he 's responsible for austin and courtney 's death . summer : i want to see this through to the end , if only to tell harding how much i hate him . sharon : then let 's go . let 's do this . what are we waiting for ? summer : yeah . sharon : [ groans softly ] [ exhales sharply ] abby : oh , my god . is that harding ? paul : oh , no . you 're gon na have to go downstairs . doc , we could use your help . abby , please . stitch : i 'll be right down . paul : please . stitch : all right . what happened ? dylan : gunshot wound , abdomen . stitch : give me some room . give me some room . dylan : yeah . stitch : [ sighs ] dylan : you okay ? paul : yeah . i 'm all right . i 'm just a little shaky , that 's all . you ? dylan : yeah . fine . i was just getting a little jumpy , you know ? he pointed the gun at you . i felt like i had to do something . it was probably stupid , but -- paul : yeah , it was -- really stupid . but thanks . so ... what happened up here before i arrived ? dylan : right . after you and chris left the restaurant , kevin tapped in to the hotel surveillance system , and he found harding on the roof . and then when i got here , he was on the phone , trying to get his hands on a passport . paul : okay . well , we 'll get ahold of his phone , and , uh , we can see who he was calling . maybe it 'll lead right to annicelli . who knows ? victor : you point all the fingers you want . i would never knowingly hurt my grandchildren by killing those they loved . marco : are you really trying to claim that your hands are clean when everyone in this room knows you 're the one who found me , who brought me here to replace your rival ? victor : you decided to play by your own rules -- rules allowing murder . marco : i did n't kill those kids . phyllis : if you did n't , then who did ? marco : one of genoa city 's finest -- detective mark harding . jack : wait . you 're blaming an officer who got wounded trying to catch you ? phyllis : that is a load of crap . why would an officer of the law get mixed up with someone like you ? marco : a question only a wealthy person would ask . jack : did you know your partner had a dirty cop on the payroll ? victor : absolutely not . marco : being jack abbott was a full - time job . i hired harding to tie up certain loose ends . jack : what do you mean ? what loose ends ? marco : those two young people -- the filmmaker and the policewoman . each stumbled onto the fact that there was more than one jack in town . they had video proof . i hired harding to get rid of the evidence . phyllis : you ordered a hit on my daughter 's husband ? marco : oh , please . i would n't waste my time . no . harding 's the one that eliminated travers , and too bad he did n't get rid of the computer files . so , when officer sloane stumbled onto the video , he silenced her , too . that was his plan , not mine . and all of the cover - ups after , including poor , unfortunate tobias gray -- that was harding , too . no . he did n't consult me . he did what he could to protect my secrets , and he was paid very handsomely for it . victor : those young people are dead because you were careless . marco : no , boss . those people are dead ... because your plan had to be protected at all costs . victor : do n't you lay the blame at my feet . jack : that 's exactly where it belongs . jack : think about it . this would n't be the first time you brought someone into town to wreak havoc on my life and then claim to have no responsibility for the collateral damage . this time you caused three deaths , including your granddaughter 's husband and your grandson 's bride . hell , i would have been the fourth casualty if it had n't been for marisa 's help . marco : oh , i 'm sure marisa gave him plenty of help in lots of areas . jack : you shut up . i accept your claim that marco 's the one that took this to a more violent level . he may not have pulled the trigger , but he did n't give a damn about the lives of any of those people , as long as he kept his secret about his identity . marco : okay , okay ! we 've established that i 'm a big , bad devil . what are we gon na do about it , boys ? what 's next ? you gon na take me into town , take me to the police station ? oh , but then you 'd have to tell them about your part in it . and you 'd have to explain all those bodies you left behind in your wake when you got back to genoa city . marisa : in self - defense . marco : oh , and you 're the witness ? how credible . how many times have you lied since you woke up this morning ? victor : there 's another option . marco : and what is that , vic ? victor : i have a very fitting end in mind for you . dylan : [ breathing heavily ] this is it . this is all they had downstairs . stitch : it 's no use . he 's gone . dylan : [ sighs ] now we 'll never know the whole story . paul : [ sighs ] you know i did n't have a choice . if i did n't shoot , he would have shot you . i was n't about to lose my son . noah : mom . kevin : what are you doing here ? noah : i told you to wait . mariah : we deserve to be a part of this . abby : all we know is that detective harding was shot again . ben . oh , thank god you 're okay ! kevin : which we already knew . summer : okay . well , what 's happening upstairs ? abby : yeah . we saw the ambulance pull up . stitch : detective harding is dead . kevin : h - h - he 's dead ? noah : well , did harding confess before he died ? dylan : he definitely implied involvement . did n't deny killing anybody , but he died before he could tell us why or who he was working with . abby : so , this is really over ? dylan : i believe harding killed austin , courtney , and tobias gray . [ sighs ] look , i got to get to the station and make my statement , okay ? sharon : okay . dylan : i 'll see you at home later . sharon : okay . abby : it kind of freaks me out . stitch : hey , it 'll be okay . like dylan said , it 's over . abby : yeah , it 's just , i mean , he seemed like a normal guy . he kissed me on new year 's eve . stitch : harding kissed you ? abby : it did n't mean anything . nothing came from it . but it 's just creepy to know that i was that close to a murderer . stitch : [ sighs ] abby : are you okay ? stitch : i 'm fine . sharon : i hope you both at least gained some closure . noah : yeah , it helps , having some answers . summer : yeah , some , anyways . mariah : you still have questions . kevin : yes . so , harding was the killer ... which means he probably set up sharon and tobias , too , but none of that explains what marco annicelli had to do with any of this . marco : what are you going to do to me ? victor : i 'm gon na be sending you straight to hell . abby : i 'm free ! there 's no more threats hanging over my head , and i feel like celebrating . but you do n't . i understand . i mean , for me , it was like this weight was lifted , but for you , you feel awful because you could n't save the man . stitch : yeah . i 'm just -- i 'm just glad the killer 's out of commission and you 're safe . abby : me , too . and since i am safe ... i do n't need a bodyguard anymore . we really only moved in together because kevin thought that the drug lord was the murderer , and now that theory is kaput , so ... we do n't need to be holed up in this hotel anymore . stitch : i wo n't miss the bodyguard thing , although the part about being holed up together -- i got to admit , that kind of felt good . abby : yeah . it 's just the thing is , um ... i 'm gon na go home ... to my house ... alone . noah : marisa 's not picking up . it just goes straight to voicemail . i think she should know about harding . summer : i still can not believe that a police detective could have done such horrible things . noah : well , it made it easier for him to frame people , cover his tracks . summer : yeah , but why ? that 's what i do n't get . noah : the same reason we suspected everybody else . austin had something damning enough on his computer that harding was willing to kill for it rather than let it get out . kevin : and the dna mistake and marco annicelli being in town at the time of the murders -- are those just coincidences ? summer : well , clearly , you do n't think so . kevin : you 're right . i do n't . mariah : i thought you were going home . sharon : i 'm just too antsy just thinking about dylan putting his life on the line . mariah : sharon , he 's safe now . sharon : oh , i know , but -- ugh . mariah : what 's wrong ? sharon : nothing . it 's just a little cramp . i had one earlier . i 'm sure it 'll pass . mariah : should you call your doctor ? sharon : um ... you know what ? it 's probably just stress , but , um , you know , maybe you 're right . i 'll just -- i 'll have it checked out . mariah : mom , i can take you to the doctor right now . you can call dylan on the way . sharon : no , no , honey . that 's not necessary . you know , i 'm just being cautious . would you mind putting all these papers away for me in the office ? mariah : yeah , sure . sharon : [ sighs ] paul : you know ... how it goes down . everything happened so fast . i , um -- i could n't assess the situation at first . all i -- all i could see was dylan , the gun . christine : and you thought of ricky . paul : yeah , for a split second , yeah . i mean , you know , same scenario . i reacted instinctively , but instead of shooting my son to save someone else , i shot someone else ... to save my son . you know , if i were too late , i do n't know what i would have done . christine : you were n't too late . dylan 's still here . and maybe saving your other son 's life will give you permission to forgive yourself . [ knock on door ] paul : yeah ? come in . dylan : hey . hey , chris . christine : hi . i heard you had quite a night . dylan : i 'm not gon na apologize for going after harding , a guy who killed three people . christine : we should have listened to you and gotten the warrant . harding would be arrested , and paul would n't have been put in the position he was in . dylan : i get it . you had to play by the rules . christine : um , i 'm gon na return some calls , okay ? paul : okay . thanks . christine : yeah . you 're gon na make a great cop . paul : [ sighs heavily ] dylan : harding may be dead ... but this is far from over . marco : [ groans softly ] victor : shh , shh , shh , shh , shh , shh , shh , shh . death would be too good for you , too easy for you . you 're going back to that hellhole of a prison cell in peru . phyllis : those nightmares you had when you were screaming in spanish -- you seemed so tormented . i 'm sure that 's what you were dreaming of . victor : you take him to my helicopter . that will take you to the airstrip , to my jet . you put him on that jet , and you fly to lima , peru , where my people are waiting for you . if he gives you any trouble , shoot him . no one will miss this scum . marco : i look forward to seeing all of you again soon . i promise you it will happen . phyllis : in the meantime , i hope you start munching on some cockroaches in that dark hellhole of yours for the next 30 years ! marisa : vete al infierno . [ smooches ] victor : get him out of here now . jack : you put your life at risk , trapping marco here . i do n't know how we can ever thank you enough . phyllis : yes . we owe you . marisa : well , i want to see him rot as much as you do . victor : boy . all a little too late , is n't it ? had you told me you were in contact with marco , it would have solved all of this . marisa : i did n't know where marco was then . victor : really ? but you were in contact with him , were n't you ? marisa : it was just a message . i could n't be sure it was him . victor : if you had told me even about the message , we would have found that sob . ! we would n't have been in this trouble ! you lied to me ! do n't ever lie to me . abby : until today ... i needed you , or i thought i needed you , to keep me safe . but i 'm safe now , and i 'm stronger , and ... i told you that i wanted this to be a real relationship . i need to feel like -- like you need me . stitch : i do need you . abby : really ? because when i pushed you on it , you finally opened up to me . you told me how you felt about losing your patient . but then you went back into your cocoon . and you put these walls up that i ca n't break through . and i want you to talk to me . i want you to tell me your deepest thoughts and your deepest feelings . i care about you , ben , and i wish that this could work out . do you know how easy it would be if you just came home with me and you kept taking care of me ? but i am fully capable of functioning on my own . i do n't need you to take care of me . and i feel like it would be better to actually be alone than to feel as alone as i do when i 'm with you sometimes . i guess i 'll go pack . stitch : abby , wait ! marisa : so , you 're gon na put me on the same plane as marco ? is that it ? jack : no . no . he sure as hell is not . you did everything you could to help me get back to phyllis , and i owe you . and you owe me . victor : you 're being naive right now . she can not be trusted . jack : i trust her . if she lied , she lied for good reason . she was victimized by marco , as well . look , if she wants to start her life over , we owe it to her to give her a chance . victor : you do n't reveal any of this . do you understand ? you do n't reveal how you came to town with jack abbott ... or what happened here just now . not a word to anyone . you keep your mouth shut , you 'll bell right . if you do n't ... noah : i mean , it 's possible that harding acted alone and this whole annicelli thing is just a coincidence . kevin : yeah . i do n't like coincidences -- for instance , marisa disappearing at the same time harding gets exposed . noah : marisa had nothing to do with harding . kevin : yeah , if you say so . noah : i ca n't believe you 're still digging . we know for a fact that harding is guilty . mariah : we may never have all of the details , like what was on austin 's computer that harding was so determined to keep secret . but you 're right . i mean , the killer 's finally been caught , and we can get justice for austin and courtney . summer : justice ? that 's not justice . justice would have been if harding had gone on trial . then our questions would have been answered . mariah : maybe . we 'll never know . but the important thing is we 're safe now . we can stop looking over our shoulders . noah : i agree . case closed . dylan : did you get anything off of harding 's phone ? paul : no , afraid not . whoever he called about the passport was using a burner phone . dylan : ah . so , uh , when i confronted harding before you showed up , i asked him who ... paid him to murder those kids . and he said that i had it all wrong , that they were n't hits . he was talking about hush money -- how somebody was paying him to keep secrets . paul : annicelli ? dylan : that would be my guess , which brings us back ... to motive . what secret was harding protecting ? paul : right . well , we 'll go over everything and see what we can find out . dylan : well , i 'd like to help if i can . paul : okay . that , uh ... [ sighs ] you know , why do n't we talk about this later ? it 's been a long night . go home and get some rest . dylan : you first . you 're not even supposed to be here . paul : [ chuckles ] yeah , so chris keeps telling me . you know what ? she was right about something else . you have amazing instincts , and you 're gon na make a terrific cop . and , you know , with all your military experience , i 'll be able to fast - track the process . you 'll get your badge in no time . you know something , dylan ? i , uh ... i ca n't tell you how proud i am that we 're gon na be working side by side . doctor : i 'm sorry for your loss , sharon . but the good news is you 're healthy . there 's no reason why you ca n't try to conceive again . sharon : [ crying ] what 's all this ? dylan : it 's just , uh , my way of saying that i 'm sorry . sharon : what do you mean ? dylan : well , i listened to your voicemail . sharon : dylan , i was scared that -- dylan : i know . i know . i know you were . i know . and then i saw your face earlier , after harding was shot . [ sighs ] sharon , just -- it made me realize that i was n't just putting my life ... in danger , that i could be jeopardizing ... our future ... and our baby 's future . so , i just , you know -- i just want to say that i 'm sorry for that . sharon : um ... dylan ... dylan : no , let me -- just let me finish . i - i never ... shied away from danger . but i just -- you know , i just have so much to lose right now , and i do n't want to risk the one thing that i 've always wanted , and that 's a family of my own . so , i have decided that i 'm not gon na join the force after all . sharon : but you were so passionate about it and about doing something that mattered and doing something that you 've wanted since you were a kid . dylan : yeah , that 's -- that 's right . that 's right . but ... i mean , we are bringing a new life into the world together . i mean , i 'm -- i 'm -- i 'm gon na be a dad . how much more important does it get than that ? stitch : i do n't mean to hurt you or shut you out . it 's just it 's hard for me to talk about myself . i spent most of my life lying about who i was . i could n't afford to open up -- to anyone . abby : well , you managed to open up to victoria and my mom . stitch : it 's different with you . i 'm more protective of you . abby : why ? why ? what 's the worst thing that could happen if you gave me a glimpse of the real ben ? stitch : you could learn something that frightens you and run like hell . i have lost so many people in my life -- my dad , my mom ... who -- who -- who vanished without a word , my sister ... guys i was in the army with that i fought beside . my wife divorced me and took our son to the other side of the planet . today on my lunch break ... i got to video - chat with him . i heard all about his mom 's fabulous new boyfriend . abby : that 's why you were so quiet at dinner . stitch : talking about this stuff brings up a lot of hurt and anger . abby : and you think you 're gon na scare me ? stitch : it scares me . but the thought of losing you when you turned to leave just now -- it terrified me , abby . so , if you just -- if you give me another chance , i will try so hard to let you in . just ... i just got to figure out how to start . abby : i think you just did . summer : kyle called twice . mariah : where is he again ? summer : new york , for a business trip . i think i need to tell him about harding . noah : kevin , give it a rest . come on . kevin : i did n't say anything . noah : i can hear your mind reeling from here . it 's over . just let it be over , please . mariah : excuse me . kevin is the person that suspected harding in the first place , and if he had n't been so tenacious , we might all still be in danger . kevin : i just feel like there 's a piece here that is not fitting . noah : marisa . marisa : hi . noah : where have you been ? ! i 've been so worried about you ! victor : i do n't think it needs saying , but whatever happened here stays amongst ourselves , all right ? jack : what , are you kidding ? victor : no . jack : you really think i 'm gon na let you get away with what you did to me now that the merger 's undone , now that marco 's being punished , now that you basically confessed to all of us what you did ? i have a very important story to tell the authorities about how you damn near eliminated me from the face of the earth ! victor : do n't leave out the other half of the story , jack -- how you killed kelly andrews in her sleep and caused an explosion on board that ship , killing all kinds of crewmembers . jack : okay , okay . you 've been holding that over my head for quite a while now . it 's not gon na work . you and i both know those charges are n't gon na stick . victor : you think about it ! you 're an intelligent man . how do you think some judge in some backwater , sweltering , banana republic country is gon na deal with you ? he 'll look at you and say , `` oh , he 's an american , a yank ... who killed an innocent tourist and a couple of dozen of my countrymen . `` what do you think he 's gon na do ? once you 're extradited , all bets are off . you would be a fool to gamble with your life that way . jack : i 'll take my chances overseas . that means you 're gon na pay for what you did . victor : who are you calling ? jack : who do you think ? paul williams . phyllis : no . no . that is too much of a risk , jack . jack : wait , red . phyllis : we have been separated since our wedding . maybe you can survive sitting in a caribbean jail cell , waiting to stand trial , but i ca n't . i ca n't lose you again . after all of this time we have been separated , we 're finally getting a chance to start our life over again . baby ... what happened to you , what happened to us , is beyond horrible . i do n't know if i 'm ever gon na forgive victor for doing this . but all i want is to live out the promises we made to each other when we said , `` i do . `` so , please , for the love of god , do not throw our future away just to get back at victor . please . abby : i 'm so sorry , ben . stitch : now that jenna knows the truth about my past , she 's loosened up some about me talking to max on the phone . i can video - chat more often . abby : but ... stitch : but still . abby : yeah . it 's not the same as seeing him , holding him in your arms . how could it be ? hey , why do n't we take a trip to australia ? stitch : that 'd be great . abby : shall we go pack ? stitch : what ? i - i - i just got reinstated back at memorial . i mean , we ca n't just drop everything and take off now . abby : no ... but we can make the trip to my house ... together . marisa : where was i ? uh , i was just -- i headed out to -- summer : kyle was shocked to hear about harding . marisa : well , what about harding ? kevin : he 's dead . marisa : dead ? what happened ? noah : paul williams shot him . kevin : of course , it 's possible he was working with marco annicelli , who is still out there . marisa : marco wo n't be a problem anymore . noah : how do you know that ? marisa : i just do . jack : i do n't want to be taken from you , either , but victor nearly destroyed our lives . phyllis : please do not risk this . jack : i ca n't stand the idea of him getting away with this . but it appears victor and i are gon na have to find a way to coexist . phyllis : thank you . thank you . jack : listen , there is one other concern , victor . marco escaped once . who 's to say he wo n't escape again and steal my life one more time ? victor : i 've taken certain measures to make sure that wo n't happen . we 'll be able to identify him . marco : [ groaning softly ] christine : normally when people go on leave , they do n't spend it all at work . paul : i belong here , chris . i 'm sure you can see that . you know , if i had been on the job , maybe -- christine : do n't blame yourself . what happened happened . [ sighs ] but i can see sitting on the sidelines is slowly driving you insane , so if you want to call your doctor and talk about coming back to work on a limited schedule , i 'm not gon na fight you on that -- a schedule that i will make sure conveniently coincides with mine . paul : [ chuckles ] thanks . and thank you for being so supportive of dylan . christine : i meant what i said . i think he 's gon na be a great cop . [ sighs ] and , selfishly speaking , it will be nice to have someone else around here who loves you like i do ... to keep an eye on you . sharon : i do n't want you making any rash decisions , especially tonight . dylan : no . it 's -- it 's the right thing . [ sighs ] just as i 'm sure ... about this . sharon : [ gasps ] dylan : sharon ... i want to marry you . will you be my wife ?

gwen : and drugs . devon : neil has a drinking problem . he 's never been into drugs . are you sure it was him ? gwen : yeah . we talked to him . that 's how we found out about the prescription . he claimed to see some reporters and duck out of sight . devon : that seems plausible enough . gwen : yeah , emma and i thought so , too , until her hospital security badge vanished only for neil to conveniently find it in the cushions of the couch that i had already searched . devon : did you confront him about it ? gwen : yeah . and he blew up on me . and i felt really guilty about it until i remembered that addicts will sometimes shift the blame onto someone else so that they 're not found out . devon : yeah , they do . addicts will also rationalize substituting one habit for another sometimes , but ... that does n't make any sense for neil . there has to be another explanation for that . gwen : well , i hope so . but i 'm really worried about him . you know , i think he 's taking this hilary thing a lot harder than anyone thinks . devon : poor guy . neil : they 're talking about devon like he 's a murderer . he 's not a murderer . and you -- you were never supposed to get hurt . you know , you were never supposed to be here for this long like this . and that doctor -- i paid off that doctor on the island . i gave him money . he -- he treated you . he said you were gon na be okay . he was sure that you were gon na be okay . and you 're not . and i do n't understand why . why , hilary ?

cane : we found a witness who saw a woman on a gurney being loaded into a plane . lily : oh , well , that could have been anyone . cane : yeah , but it was a private plane and it was a remote airfield , so it looks like they wanted to stay out of view . lily : well , if hilary was on a gurney , then she must have been hurt . joe : yeah , do you know where she was going ? lily : yeah , and who put her on the plane ? cane : well , we do n't know that yet , but michael and i , uh -- we 're trying to find the pilot , but the good thing is we found the flight log , so we know that the plane was going from virgin gorda to dallas . lily : dallas ? what 's in dallas ? cane : uh , i do n't know , but that 's what paul 's gon na maybe help us figure out . lily : well , i guess the good news is that if hilary was carried off on a gurney , then she must have still been alive . neil : hey . devon : hey , man . neil : hey . it 's good to e you . devon : good to see you , too . neil : you know , i was really worried when i heard you were going back down to the island . devon : yeah . neil : you do realize that they could have thrown you into jail , right ? i 'm surprised you even made it back . devon : i would have stayed there longer if i had to , but once michael and i put together that hilary most likely left the place -- neil : what ? how did you find out about that ? i - i mean , um , what did you find out ? devon : i 'll tell you about that later . i want to talk about you right now . neil : me ? what do you want -- what ? devon : yeah . what 's , uh -- what 's been going on with you ? you do n't -- you do n't seem like yourself lately . neil : yeah , sure i have been . devon : no , you do n't . i - i know i 've been wrapped up in my own stuff to notice , but i can -- i can kind of see it right now . you 're , like , a little nervous and jittery . neil : mm . mm , yeah . of course i am . i mean , everywhere i go , the press has already tried and convicted you , right ? i mean , there 's nothing we can do about it , so ... look , yeah , i am . i 'm -- i 'm on edge . i am -- i am feeling kind of ... devon : yeah , gwen told me . neil : told -- told you what ? devon : um ... dad , did you steal drugs from a medical - supply closet ? neil : she told you that ? devon : are you taking pills instead of drinking ? neil : hey , man . you got the wrong guy , jack , okay ? i did n't steal any drugs from a supply closet . what do you think i am ? you think i 'm a junkie ? i 'm just trying to -- i am -- devon : you 're what ? you 're what ? tell me what 's going on . neil : i do n't know what to say to you . i do n't know why you 're -- why are you asking me this ? devon : 'cause i want an honest answer . that 's all . i just want the truth from you . please . neil : okay . okay . you want the truth ? you want honesty ? then i 'm gon na give it to you . i am gon na tell you the truth here . i 'm responsible for hilary 's disappearance . noah : how much cleaner is it gon na get ? mariah : i 'm a perfectionist . noah : [ scoffs ] okay . since when ? mariah : there . happy ? noah : yeah , actually , i am . but i 'm kind of getting the feeling that you 're not . mariah : does this work for you ? kevin : sure . if you 're gon na get your teeth cleaned . marisa : what 's the matter , if you do n't mind my asking ? mariah : i woke up on the wrong side of the bed , okay ? noah : [ chuckles ] okay , this is a little crabby , even for you . what 's going on ? is it the job ? mariah : no . marisa : money ? mariah : no . noah : kevin ? marisa : kevin who ? noah : there it is . now we know the root of the problem . mariah : there is no problem . there is actually nothing at all . noah : i mean , we have noticed that you two have been doing the , uh , `` will they , wo n't they `` dance for a little while now . marisa : well , did you take my advice last night ? did you stay in the suite ? mariah : yes . we did . and it was ... it was just awful . marisa : oh , no . noah : that bad , huh ? mariah : it was duller than reading a dictionary . i have had better sex in my sleep . noah : okay . did n't need to know that . i get it . marisa : well , wait . does kevin feel the same way ? mariah : no ! that 's what makes this all so horrible . he had a great time . he woke up this morning smiling from ear to ear like i 'd made his life complete . how do i break it to him that i ... marisa : faked it ? mariah : [ sighs ] how can i disappoint him like that ? michael : oh , hard at work , i see . kevin : yeah , well , if i am slacking off , it 's your fault . michael : my fault ? what did i do ? kevin : you only ruined my life , encouraged me to take another risk at love , which i did last night with mariah . michael : oh . and ... ? what happened ? kevin : nothing . at least , not for me . michael : oh , uh . you mean , you could n't ... kevin : of course i could . i just mean there was no ... michael : no what ? kevin : i do n't know . no chemistry . michael : you 're kidding me . kevin : does this look like the face of someone who 's kidding ? i 've gotten more excited writing computer code . michael : well , what about mariah ? what did she think ? kevin : that 's the worst part . she had the time of her life . woke up this morning , she was smiling from ear to ear . it 's like i made her life complete . michael : [ sighs ] how did she react when you told her that , um , you did n't feel the same way ? kevin : i did n't . i lied . michael : you lied ? kevin : what was i supposed to do ? tell her the truth and break her heart ? michael : yeah . anything rather than lead her on . i mean , that 's not fair to her or to you . if this relationship has nowhere to go , you got to be honest with her before you wind up losing everything , including your friendship . kevin : you 're right . i better get this over with . michael : what ? now ? you 're on the clock . kevin : [ scoffs ] i get a lunch break , you know . michael : all right . good luck . kevin : all right . thanks , mike . paul : come in ! hey , michael . i did n't know you were back in the country . michael : i got a lead on hilary 's whereabouts . i need your help tracking it down . it 's a long shot , but it 's all i got right now . lily : uh , joe , would you actually mind giving cane and i a minute to talk ? cane : hey , hey . we do n't need a minute . no privacy needed here . we 're fine . you can stay . lily : i just wanted to explain why joe took charlie to the game . cane : you do n't have to explain . it 's okay . i understand . you were busy and needed some help , and joe was here . he volunteered . i appreciate it . thank you . joe : yeah , i was n't trying to be forward . a pipe busted in the kitchen next to the electrical room , and -- lily : yeah . joe was here . i was in a bind . it just -- it made sense , you know ? cane : of course it made sense . i understand . it 's not a problem . really , it is n't . i 'm grateful . thanks , mate . joe : yeah . cane : cool . joe : of course . any -- anytime . dylan : have a seat . india : what ? here ? i do n't do public scenes . dylan : scenes ? no , no . i just -- i just want to talk . india : for what i charge ? suit yourself , but it 's cash up front . dylan : cash ? i thought you took credit cards . india : the agency does for their cut . me -- cash only . dylan : [ sighs ] india : tell mama your troubles , baby . dylan : [ chuckles ] um , i 'd rather talk about devon hamilton 's bachelor party . india : i do a lot of bachelor parties . dylan : i 'm sure you do . but apparently there was something special about this one . india : even if there was , i have a strict confidentiality policy . dylan : [ sighs ] i 'm sure you heard about devon 's wife , that she 's missing . it 's been all over the news . india : [ chuckles ] watch the news ? why would i do that ? dylan : well , i 'm , uh , just trying to find her , make sure she 's not in danger , so i would appreciate it if you could shed any light on this . [ sighs ] india : i did n't have sex with devon , but i did get paid extra to say that i did , even shot a video that was supposed to convince him that we consummated the ... transaction . dylan : who would want devon to think that he was unfaithful ? india : ask the man who shelled out the big bucks . neil : i am so sorry , son . i - i did a terrible thing . devon : stop blaming yourself . neil : yeah , but i -- devon : please . no , no , no . stop . okay , i get it . i understand that you feel guilty and like you brought this on because you wished bad things to me and hilary when you found out about us , but that does n't mean that you 're responsible for her disappearing . neil : okay , i -- you have no idea -- devon : dad , it does n't work like that , okay ? this is n't your fault . i do n't want to see you tearing yourself up like this . all right ? it kills me to see you doing this to yourself . neil : can you just listen to me for a minute , okay ? i -- the last thing i want to do is cause you any more pain , okay ? devon : great . then tell me the truth . that 's all i want from you . just tell me the real truth . please . neil : the truth . okay . all right . i 'm gon na tell you the truth . marisa : we never should have rushed things with mariah and kevin . maybe if they 'd gone at their own pace , they would -- mariah : we would be 90 years old and celibate . noah : [ sighs ] well , at least now you guys know that there 's no future between you two . mariah : no . i know it . how am i gon na break it to kevin ? what 's gon na happen when i do ? he 's probably gon na stop talking to me , and then i 'm gon na have to move out or he 's gon na kick me out . i just -- i do n't understand why it could n't have been amazing . noah : some things are n't meant to be . mariah : yeah , just once , i wish they were . marisa : do n't we need to do inventory in the back ? noah : no . i did that yesterday . marisa : no , i - i mean the other inventory that you forgot to do . noah : right . oh , yeah . uh , just -- it 's hard to keep track of all the inventories around here . yeah , thank you for reminding me . we should ... do that . kevin : so ... about last night ... india : this session 's over . colin : uh , hope i did n't mess up your date . dylan : no , it was n't a date . colin : hey , it 's none of my business if you want to go and explore india . we -- we just wo n't tell the fiancée . dylan : is that what you said to devon ? threaten to expose a nonexistent affair with a prostitute ? or did you just go straight for the blackmail ? colin : [ sighs ] you know , us guys -- we -- we have this sacred bond . i mean , what happens at the bachelor party -- it stays at the bachelor party . dylan : yeah , except that you 're not like most guys , because most guys do n't blackmail people . so , what happened ? devon not pay up and you -- you kept your word and you told hilary that her new groom was unfaithful ? is that what happened ? something go down ? it get a little out of hand ? colin : somehow , i 'm not seeing a police badge on you . you might want to lay off , pal . dylan : a woman 's missing . nobody 's gon na lay off until she 's found . neil : [ sighs ] all right , um ... i 've been drinking again . uh , not much , but , you know , here and there . devon : dad , one drink is too much , man . neil : i know . i know . i thought i could control it , but obviously i 'm not thinking straight in my life right now . i 'm -- i mean , i - i - i took a drink because i - i had to forget about what was happening with hilary , her disappearance , everything that 's been going on in my life . devon : i get it . i get it . but you know that 's not the way to go about things . neil : yeah . i know . i 'm gon na go to meetings . i am . i 'm gon na go to meetings , and i 'm gon na -- i 'm gon na get sober , and i - i promise i 'll kick it . devon : listen to me , please . know that i will do anything and everything that i can to help you with it . neil : i do n't deserve this from you . devon : what are you talking about ? come on . please stop beating yourself up for me , all right ? let 's not do that . let 's put the past where it belongs , and that 's behind us . right now , we need to focus on getting you better and finding hilary , which i think we 've taken a big step towards . neil : what do you mean ? devon : michael and i have a solid lead . there was a private jet that was seen leaving virgin gorda the same day that hilary disappeared . so i think that she could be closer than we thought . michael : devon is hopeful that someone has transferred hilary to the states for treatment . paul : [ chuckles ] i 'd like to believe that , too , but at this point , that does n't seem like the most logical conclusion . michael : yeah , i know . i just do n't have the heart to tell devon yet . [ telephone rings ] paul : excuse me . chief williams . what ? you 're sure about that ? okay . okay . thanks for following up for me . i owe you one . wow . you 're not gon na believe this . you want a drink or -- or something to eat ? we have , um -- we have olives . and we have pimentos . there 's nothing like a good pimento to start your day . kevin : look , i 'm gon na pass on all that , 'cause we need to talk about what happened , okay . the thing is , when you get right down to it , the sex was -- it was totally not great . mariah : yeah , look , i know that 's how you feel , and i think that that 's really flattering . it 's -- did you say not great ? kevin : and i hate to disappoint you , 'cause i know how great it was for you . mariah : it was n't ! kevin : and i just wish that , for me , it had been but it was n't ? did you say it was n't ? like , you had as bad a time as i had ? mariah : oh , my god . it was awful . kevin : awkward . boring . mariah : a complete snooze - fest . kevin : [ sighs ] mariah : [ sighs ] i have never been so relieved in my life to have not turned somebody on . kevin : tell me about it . mariah : so , can we go back to being friends ? kevin : i can stand that if you can . mariah : i will find a way . kevin : [ chuckles ] ] ] mariah : okay . well , now that we 're friends again , um ... a little bit of advice . that thing that you do with the earlobes . kevin : oh , yeah , yeah . mariah : yeah , yeah . that 's not good . kevin : huh . mariah : no , it 's -- it 's bad . kevin : really ? i - i - i 've never had any complaints before . mariah : yeah , they were probably being polite . kevin : while we 're on the subject of what not to do , that growl thing that you did -- do not do that again . mariah : that was not -- that was not a growl . kevin : that was a growl . you growled . you scared me . mariah : it 's -- it 's not a growl . it 's like -- it 's like a purr . kevin : mm ... tomato , tomahto . colin : listen to me , dick tracy . i do n't know what happened to hilary , but it had nothing to do with me . i have n't crossed any city lines , much less gone to the virgin islands . dylan : then why do i get the feeling you 're not telling me something ? colin : 'cause you 're a guy with a suspicious nose who finds everything suspicious . look , i 'm no saint in this town , but i 'm not into kidnapping . i have a quiet existence . i 'm a - an upstanding citizen of genoa city . dylan : who just made a nation to eor service . colin : oh , well , i like to be a philanthropist . dylan : yeah , who put devon in a , uh , compromising position to get something out of it . colin : if i wanted to get something out of it , do you not think i would have offered up a ransom note by now ? dylan : yeah , but you 're not giving me answers . colin : you 're asking the wrong person the wrong questions . now , you look for someone with an ax to grind or ... someone who does n't want the happy couple to live happily ever after . back to the hilary case . the police are claiming there 's nothing new to report , but perhaps they 're looking in the wrong place . if my interview with husband devon is any indication , this playboy turned grieving newlywed has been investing his sizable fortune in a good acting coach . devon : me loving hilary is not extraordinary . the fact that that amazing woman loves me as much as she does -- that 's remarkable . and the fact that she wants and has chosen to spend the rest of her life with me -- that 's a blessing . and i 'm not going to rest until my beautiful wife is back home with me . lily : so , now that we 're all caught up , why do n't we head home . i know mattie will be excited to see you . cane : i 'd like that . i 'd like some family time . [ smooches ] lily : okay . well , i 'll get our little pirate . joe : yeah . that 's one special kid you have there . it was a lot of fun spending time with him at the game . i really appreciate that . you know , hopefully , we can get back on track with our friendship . cane : we are not friends , and we will never be friends . you understand that ? joe : cane , i said i was sorry . i thought you understood . cane : oh , i understand more than you know . stop moving in on my wife . joe : look , you got it all wrong , cane . cane : you have been after lily since you first saw her , and you are still after her . joe : no . cane : what is it ? you got a taste of her ? is that what it is ? you decided you want some more ? one more time ? is that it ? joe : okay , look , what happened between lily and i -- that was a mistake . it 's over . i swear . okay , she and i put that in the past . i thought you did , too . cane : i may have forgiven her , but i 'm not gon na forgive you . you took advantage of our breakup to go and sleep with my wife . and you know , for that , you know what i should do ? joe : yeah , what ? what ? you want to hit me , cane ? if that makes it all better , then by all means , go ahead . cane : see , joe , i 'd love to . i 'm not going to . that 's gon na make you look like the victim here . you know that , do n't you ? what are you even doing here in the city still ? why are you here ? joe : i 've got business , all right ? is that all right with you ? cane : as long as that business means you 're nowhere near my wife or my kids , yes . lily : i found this little one terrorizing the kitchen staff with his sword . cane : well , let 's go and blow this popsicle stand . come on , mate . let 's go . charlie : thank you , uncle joe , for taking me to my game . joe : yeah , yeah . of course . lily : is everything okay here ? cane : yeah . everything 's great . joe and i settled everything , have n't we , joe ? come on , guys . let 's go . let 's have some family time . noah : i 'm glad we finished that inventory . i hate counting all those lemons and limes . marisa : yeah . now we can get back to work . mariah : it 's okay , guys . it 's safe to come in . kevin : mariah and i are done talking . mariah : and we are back to being friends again . kevin : just friends . mariah : [ laughs ] marisa : you seem happy about that . mariah : we are . kevin : yeah . so happy that we 're gon na go out and celebrate never having sex together again . mariah : never . noah : i think that 's something that we can all celebrate . marisa : yeah . ha - have fun . mariah : see you . noah : can you imagine celebrating never having sex again ? marisa : [ sighs ] well , that is one problem that we do n't have to worry about . noah : no . it 's not . marisa : [ chuckles ] noah : mm , hold on . um , sorry , pal . we 're -- uh , we 're not open . luca : that 's okay . i 'm here to see my wife . hello , marisa . devon : is there any news ? what did paul have to say ? michael : uh , well , he did some digging for us , but what he found -- uh , i do n't know what to make of it . devon : why ? what is it ? michael : the , uh , private plane that we assumed hilary was on -- it landed in dallas from virgin gorda . devon : we already knew that . michael : well , then it took off again , and then , 24 hours later , it returned . devon : well , where the hell did it go in between ? that could be where hilary is . michael : that 's the problem . we do n't know . nobody filed a flight plan . hilary could be anywhere . dylan : neil . neil : oh , dylan . hi . dylan : you all right ? neil : yeah , i - i 'm fine . i 'm fine , considering the situation . um , here . take a seat if you want it . i got to get going . dylan : there 's something you might want to hear first . i had a very interesting , uh , conversation with colin . neil : with colin , huh ? about what ? dylan : uh , about hilary and how you might be involved in her disappearance . [ next_on ] neil : i 've been lying to you . sharon : are you saying i should check myself into a facility ? nick : at least until you get the situation stabilized . ian : i guess i better confess why i 'm really out here . | dylan goes to the police station to discuss sharon and the baby and also to ask paul for help . neil sits beside hilary and tries to get her to wake up . he watches a broadcast of a reporter telling the audience that devon may be covering his tracks in the murder of hilary . neil tells hilary that devon is no murderer . in the park , devon talks to gwen about neil possibly being on drugs . gwen lets him know that she feels that neil took emma 's id card in order to steal drugs from the medicine cabinet at the hospital and told them that he was there to pick up a prescription for sleeping pills . kevin and mariah enter the underground , but they 're preoccupied with their own thoughts . noah and marisa join her . colin watches as charlie comes into the athletic club with joe . colin joins lily and warns her about letting joe get too close and how cane would feel . cane and michael interrupt them and want to know what is going on . charlie lets cane know that joe came to his game . lily asks cane about the new evidence that they found in virgin gorda . dylan lets paul know about his talk with esther and about her telling him that something fishy was going on between devon and colin . paul pulls back the curtain and shows him kevin , who is on the computer in the squad room . dylan and kevin search the computer and find evidence that colin deposited large amounts of money . cane tells lily the news that someone loaded on to an airplane . in the park , devon asks neil what is going on with him . neil stalls in giving him an answer . neil tells devon that he is responsible for hilary 's disappearance . | <s>[INST] dylan : thanks for taking the time to talk . paul : oh , not at all . it 's always good to see you . what 's going on ? how is the , uh , future father of my grandchild ? dylan : i 'm doing great . paul : what about sharon and the baby ? dylan : good . paul : i do n't supposed you have , uh , any new ultrasounds to show me , do you ? dylan : [ chuckles ] no , no . not yet . but i 'm pretty anxious about that . i tell you , there 's -- there 's nothing like seeing that baby on the monitor . it 's a -- it 's just a complete miracle . paul : it is . it 's an amazing miracle . dylan : i 'm sorry . i should n't have -- paul : no , no , no . not at all . i do n't want you censoring yourself . dylan : i know -- i know it still hurts . paul : there will always be a place in my heart for the child i lost , but i do n't want that to get in the way of our new grandchild . dylan : well , i wish i was here for that , but i 'm actually here for something else . paul : okay . what ? dylan : i need your help . paul : sure . whatever i can do . dylan : no , officially , as the chief . paul : and i suppose it 's more complicated than just fixing a parking ticket . dylan : a woman 's life is at stake . neil : can you hear me ? 'cause , damn it , i am doing everything that i can -- everything , and it 's still not working . and i know that i should be taking you to a hospital . i know that , but i ca n't right now . hilary . please . please forgive me . [ sighs ] still no sign of the billionaire 's bride , hilary hamilton , and now the groom has gone mia . as well . so , what is with the vanishing act ? has devon finally decided to get out of dodge ? is he hiding off the grid somewhere ? or has he returned to paradise to cover up his tracks ? now , i 'm not saying he did the dirty deed . in my interview with him , he flashed those puppy - dog eyes at me and had me crying right alongside him . all i 'm saying is that actions speak louder than words . and his actions are saying , `` i 'm guilty . `` and if you watch my show , you know that where there 's smoke , there 's usually the husband . devon : hi . let 's make this brief , if possible , 'cause i 've really been trying to keep a low profile and avoid people 's stares and questions that i have no answers to . gwen : of course . i would n't have asked you here unless i thought it was important . it 's about your dad . things have n't been right . devon : hang on a second . did you just ask me to come here to talk about the two of you ? gwen : no , you did n't let me finish . devon : well , there 's no need to , 'cause i - i do n't have any intention of getting in the middle of your relationship , you know , especially when my wife is missing and i should be looking for her right now . gwen : of course , you should . devon : i 'm glad we agree on that . gwen : devon , wait . devon : yeah ? gwen : i know your mind is on hilary , as it should be , but she 's not the only one in trouble . neil is , too . kevin : here we are . mariah : thank you for , uh , walking me inside . kevin : of course . uh , it 's the least i could do after last night . mariah : [ chuckles ] i guess , uh , noah and marisa are n't here yet . kevin : uh , do you want me to wait around until they get here ? mariah : no . i mean , no , i - i do n't want you to be late for work . kevin : okay . well , uh ... you have a great day . mariah : you , too . [ chuckles ] kevin : bye . noah : hey , mariah . marisa : great morning , huh ? noah : even better night . mariah : are you guys just gon na stand there and make googly eyes at each other or are you gon na actually get to work ? joe : touchdown ! g.c . mustangs win ! lily : what ? you won ? joe : yeah , well , thanks to , uh , aaron rodgers here . little man 's got quite the cannon . lily : oh , my god , honey . i 'm so proud of you . joe : best game since the ' 67 ice bowl . lily : aww , thank you so much for stepping in for me . i really owe you one . joe : yeah . no problem . how 'd the , uh , whole emergency work out ? lily : oh , it was fine . the plumber said that it could have been a lot worse , so it all worked out . joe : well , great on all fronts . i 'm just -- i 'm glad i could help . lily : yeah , thank you . colin : hey , champ . charlie : grandpa , we wo n't the game ! colin : so i heard ! listen , why do n't you take the chauffeur here and go over to that table over there and celebrate with some doughnuts , huh ? lily : [ gasps ] joe : sound good ? charlie : yeah . lily : [ chuckles ] colin : my , my . looks like something straight out of a norman rockwell picture . lily : joe was just helping me out by taking charlie to his football game . that 's it . colin : yeah . how long has cane been away now ? a couple of days and already you 're getting back into your bad habits . lily : okay . [ scoffs ] first of all , it 's nothing like that , and second of all , you should not be talking to me about bad habits . colin : a - as a person who realizes the error of his ways , i 've cleaned up my act . lily : [ laughs ] yeah , right . colin : you do n't see me fawning over some ex - lover here . lily : i 'm not fawning over joe . he 's a friend . colin : i do n't think cane would see it that way . in fact , i do n't think cane would be happy at all . cane : what would n't i be happy at all about ? charlie : [ laughs ] additional sponsorship joe : ah , there you go , sport . charlie : daddy ! cane : come here . come here . i missed you . i missed you , little mate , so much . so , what else have i missed ? charlie : uncle joe came to my game . he taught me how to throw a spiral . cane : uncle joe , huh ? how about that . cane : yeah , anybody could have done it . colin : anyone could have done it , but you did . lily : what are you doing home today ? i did n't know you were coming back . cane : well , uh -- michael : oh , that was my fault . [ chuckles ] i managed to book us on a last- minute flight , rushed this one to the plane figuring he could contact you from there , but there was no wi - fi . sorry . colin : you know , some things are just kind of meant to happen . i mean , like you coming home unexpectedly . surprises -- well , they 're good , right ? cane : nothing like them , dad , huh ? colin : told you he 'd be unhappy . well , i think i got to take off . um , good to have you back . not a moment too soon . and as for you , champ , your next time , how about inviting grandpa to the game ? got it ? good . cane : see you , dad . lily : it was all very happenstance , the way that joe took him to the game . joe : yeah , it 's just , you know , one of those things . cane : sounds like a lot of fun . wish i could have been there . michael : well , i better follow up on that new lead from paul . lily : what new lead ? michael : i 'll let cane tell you about it . um , i 'll call you with any news . cane : thanks , michael . lily : so , uh , michael sounded almost hopeful . what did you two find out ? dylan : i think colin may have had a hand in hilary 's disappearance . okay , i got some information that -- paul : no . hold on a second . just back up . i did n't even know you were looking into this . i mean , last i heard , you promised sharon that you would n't get involved . dylan : yeah , you 're right . you 're right . but sharon and i -- we had a great talk . uh , she changed her mind . she says that i have this need to help others , which i do . i think that runs in the family . paul : even if it could possibly put you in danger ? dylan : well , that 's why i 'm coming to you with the information so you can do all the heavy lifting from here . paul : [ chuckles ] okay . why do n't you tell me what you know ? dylan : okay . this is from esther at this point . paul : esther ? the maid esther ? dylan : yes . just hear me out , okay ? paul : all right . dylan : she saw and heard some things while she was living at chancellor place -- suspicious phone calls , colin whispering into the phone , keeping secrets from jill , and now , most recently , he 's spending large sums of money . paul : okay , well , he could very possibly have access to large sums of money . dylan : no , i - i know , but really , it 's a coincidence ? the phone calls , the keeping secrets , and , all of a sudden , spending large amounts of money at the same time devon and hilary got married and now hilary 's disappeared ? paul : you 're right . colin does have a very significant criminal history , one that does involve kidnapping . dylan : okay , so let 's look at his bank records . paul : i ca n't do that without a warrant . and i do n't think there 's a self- respecting judge who 's gon na sign a warrant based on the hunch of a housekeeper . dylan : okay , so that 's it ? we just leave it at that ? paul : i did n't say that . you know , when potentially there 's a life at stake ... there are ways to circumvent the system . devon : what 's going on with neil ? gwen : well , he and i have been getting close . we 've been spending a lot of time together lately . i did n't know if you knew that or not . devon : yeah , i knew that . and i 'm fine with it . i do n't -- there 's no need for my approval or anything if that 's what you 're getting at . gwen : give me a break , devon . i 'm concerned about him . okay ? he got a prescription for something to help him sleep . devon : lily has told me about this . i know . gwen : well , then you probably know my sister and i found him coming out of a medical - supply closet at the hospital . devon : medical - supply closet , like , with gloves and masks and all that ? gwen : and drugs . devon : neil has a drinking problem . he 's never been into drugs . are you sure it was him ? gwen : yeah . we talked to him . that 's how we found out about the prescription . he claimed to see some reporters and duck out of sight . devon : that seems plausible enough . gwen : yeah , emma and i thought so , too , until her hospital security badge vanished only for neil to conveniently find it in the cushions of the couch that i had already searched . devon : did you confront him about it ? gwen : yeah . and he blew up on me . and i felt really guilty about it until i remembered that addicts will sometimes shift the blame onto someone else so that they 're not found out . devon : yeah , they do . addicts will also rationalize substituting one habit for another sometimes , but ... that does n't make any sense for neil . there has to be another explanation for that . gwen : well , i hope so . but i 'm really worried about him . you know , i think he 's taking this hilary thing a lot harder than anyone thinks . devon : poor guy . neil : they 're talking about devon like he 's a murderer . he 's not a murderer . and you -- you were never supposed to get hurt . you know , you were never supposed to be here for this long like this . and that doctor -- i paid off that doctor on the island . i gave him money . he -- he treated you . he said you were gon na be okay . he was sure that you were gon na be okay . and you 're not . and i do n't understand why . why , hilary ? why are you not okay ? why ? why ? ! just -- come on . give me -- give me something . just -- why do n't you squeeze my hand ? squeeze my hand or open your eyes . do something . let me know that you 're okay . please ! [ cell phone rings ] neil : yeah ? uh , devon , what 's up ? devon : that 's what i 'd like to know . you and i need to talk . neil : yeah . you 're right . we do need to talk . [ keyboard clacking ] dylan : thanks for doing your magic . i know it 's not exactly , like , you know -- kevin : uh , ta , ta , ta , ta . i do n't know what you 're talking about , okay ? dylan : yeah , okay . kevin : but if there 's one thing i 've learned , it 's to always trust esther 's instincts . she knew there was problems with chloe and i before we did . and it 's not exactly like colin is a boy scout or whatever the australian version of that is . so ... let 's see what he 's up to . dylan : right there . there 's his credit - card receipts . kevin : i do n't see anything out of the ordinary . no charges from virgin gorda . dylan : i mean , he 's smart enough to use cash or get somebody else to do his dirty work . let 's check his accounts , his holdings . whoa . dylan : `` whoa `` is right . those are some hefty cash deposits . kevin : from right before devon and hilary 's wedding . dylan : so , is there any large withdrawals ? kevin : uh ... [ keyboard clacking ] kevin : a little bit here , a little bit here . look at that one from the end of july . [ chuckles ] dylan : `` touch of class escorts ? `` kevin : [ laughs ] dylan : what ? kevin : well , at least now we know how he 's spending his time when jill is out of town . dylan : that 's too much information . kevin : mm . dylan : is there any money spent on airline tickets ? [ keyboard clacking ] kevin : uh , i do n't know , but why do n't you take this in case we come up empty- handed on everything else . dylan : thanks a lot . kevin : you never know . you could get ... lucky . let 's see ... charlie : arr ! cane : arr ! ahoy , matey . now , why do n't you go show the pirate kitchen hands what daddy got for you in the caribbean , okay ? and do n't poke anyone in the eye with the sword , all right ? it 'll hurt . charlie : arr ! cane : arr . lily : [ laughs ] charlie : arr ! joe : well , you guys , uh , are so blessed with that little man . you ca n't do any wrong in his eyes . he was talking about you the whole time at the game . he really missed you . cane : yeah . i missed him , too . i wish i was here . but you know , at least the , uh , leg work we did in virgin gorda paid off , so ... lily : how so ? cane : we found a witness who saw a woman on a gurney being loaded into a plane . lily : oh , well , that could have been anyone . cane : yeah , but it was a private plane and it was a remote airfield , so it looks like they wanted to stay out of view . lily : well , if hilary was on a gurney , then she must have been hurt . joe : yeah , do you know where she was going ? lily : yeah , and who put her on the plane ? cane : well , we do n't know that yet , but michael and i , uh -- we 're trying to find the pilot , but the good thing is we found the flight log , so we know that the plane was going from virgin gorda to dallas . lily : dallas ? what 's in dallas ? cane : uh , i do n't know , but that 's what paul 's gon na maybe help us figure out . lily : well , i guess the good news is that if hilary was carried off on a gurney , then she must have still been alive . neil : hey . devon : hey , man . neil : hey . it 's good to e you . devon : good to see you , too . neil : you know , i was really worried when i heard you were going back down to the island . devon : yeah . neil : you do realize that they could have thrown you into jail , right ? i 'm surprised you even made it back . devon : i would have stayed there longer if i had to , but once michael and i put together that hilary most likely left the place -- neil : what ? how did you find out about that ? i - i mean , um , what did you find out ? devon : i 'll tell you about that later . i want to talk about you right now . neil : me ? what do you want -- what ? devon : yeah . what 's , uh -- what 's been going on with you ? you do n't -- you do n't seem like yourself lately . neil : yeah , sure i have been . devon : no , you do n't . i - i know i 've been wrapped up in my own stuff to notice , but i can -- i can kind of see it right now . you 're , like , a little nervous and jittery . neil : mm . mm , yeah . of course i am . i mean , everywhere i go , the press has already tried and convicted you , right ? i mean , there 's nothing we can do about it , so ... look , yeah , i am . i 'm -- i 'm on edge . i am -- i am feeling kind of ... devon : yeah , gwen told me . neil : told -- told you what ? devon : um ... dad , did you steal drugs from a medical - supply closet ? neil : she told you that ? devon : are you taking pills instead of drinking ? neil : hey , man . you got the wrong guy , jack , okay ? i did n't steal any drugs from a supply closet . what do you think i am ? you think i 'm a junkie ? i 'm just trying to -- i am -- devon : you 're what ? you 're what ? tell me what 's going on . neil : i do n't know what to say to you . i do n't know why you 're -- why are you asking me this ? devon : 'cause i want an honest answer . that 's all . i just want the truth from you . please . neil : okay . okay . you want the truth ? you want honesty ? then i 'm gon na give it to you . i am gon na tell you the truth here . i 'm responsible for hilary 's disappearance . noah : how much cleaner is it gon na get ? mariah : i 'm a perfectionist . noah : [ scoffs ] okay . since when ? mariah : there . happy ? noah : yeah , actually , i am . but i 'm kind of getting the feeling that you 're not . mariah : does this work for you ? kevin : sure . if you 're gon na get your teeth cleaned . marisa : what 's the matter , if you do n't mind my asking ? mariah : i woke up on the wrong side of the bed , okay ? noah : [ chuckles ] okay , this is a little crabby , even for you . what 's going on ? is it the job ? mariah : no . marisa : money ? mariah : no . noah : kevin ? marisa : kevin who ? noah : there it is . now we know the root of the problem . mariah : there is no problem . there is actually nothing at all . noah : i mean , we have noticed that you two have been doing the , uh , `` will they , wo n't they `` dance for a little while now . marisa : well , did you take my advice last night ? did you stay in the suite ? mariah : yes . we did . and it was ... it was just awful . marisa : oh , no . noah : that bad , huh ? mariah : it was duller than reading a dictionary . i have had better sex in my sleep . noah : okay . did n't need to know that . i get it . marisa : well , wait . does kevin feel the same way ? mariah : no ! that 's what makes this all so horrible . he had a great time . he woke up this morning smiling from ear to ear like i 'd made his life complete . how do i break it to him that i ... marisa : faked it ? mariah : [ sighs ] how can i disappoint him like that ? michael : oh , hard at work , i see . kevin : yeah , well , if i am slacking off , it 's your fault . michael : my fault ? what did i do ? kevin : you only ruined my life , encouraged me to take another risk at love , which i did last night with mariah . michael : oh . and ... ? what happened ? kevin : nothing . at least , not for me . michael : oh , uh . you mean , you could n't ... kevin : of course i could . i just mean there was no ... michael : no what ? kevin : i do n't know . no chemistry . michael : you 're kidding me . kevin : does this look like the face of someone who 's kidding ? i 've gotten more excited writing computer code . michael : well , what about mariah ? what did she think ? kevin : that 's the worst part . she had the time of her life . woke up this morning , she was smiling from ear to ear . it 's like i made her life complete . michael : [ sighs ] how did she react when you told her that , um , you did n't feel the same way ? kevin : i did n't . i lied . michael : you lied ? kevin : what was i supposed to do ? tell her the truth and break her heart ? michael : yeah . anything rather than lead her on . i mean , that 's not fair to her or to you . if this relationship has nowhere to go , you got to be honest with her before you wind up losing everything , including your friendship . kevin : you 're right . i better get this over with . michael : what ? now ? you 're on the clock . kevin : [ scoffs ] i get a lunch break , you know . michael : all right . good luck . kevin : all right . thanks , mike . paul : come in ! hey , michael . i did n't know you were back in the country . michael : i got a lead on hilary 's whereabouts . i need your help tracking it down . it 's a long shot , but it 's all i got right now . lily : uh , joe , would you actually mind giving cane and i a minute to talk ? cane : hey , hey . we do n't need a minute . no privacy needed here . we 're fine . you can stay . lily : i just wanted to explain why joe took charlie to the game . cane : you do n't have to explain . it 's okay . i understand . you were busy and needed some help , and joe was here . he volunteered . i appreciate it . thank you . joe : yeah , i was n't trying to be forward . a pipe busted in the kitchen next to the electrical room , and -- lily : yeah . joe was here . i was in a bind . it just -- it made sense , you know ? cane : of course it made sense . i understand . it 's not a problem . really , it is n't . i 'm grateful . thanks , mate . joe : yeah . cane : cool . joe : of course . any -- anytime . dylan : have a seat . india : what ? here ? i do n't do public scenes . dylan : scenes ? no , no . i just -- i just want to talk . india : for what i charge ? suit yourself , but it 's cash up front . dylan : cash ? i thought you took credit cards . india : the agency does for their cut . me -- cash only . dylan : [ sighs ] india : tell mama your troubles , baby . dylan : [ chuckles ] um , i 'd rather talk about devon hamilton 's bachelor party . india : i do a lot of bachelor parties . dylan : i 'm sure you do . but apparently there was something special about this one . india : even if there was , i have a strict confidentiality policy . dylan : [ sighs ] i 'm sure you heard about devon 's wife , that she 's missing . it 's been all over the news . india : [ chuckles ] watch the news ? why would i do that ? dylan : well , i 'm , uh , just trying to find her , make sure she 's not in danger , so i would appreciate it if you could shed any light on this . [ sighs ] india : i did n't have sex with devon , but i did get paid extra to say that i did , even shot a video that was supposed to convince him that we consummated the ... transaction . dylan : who would want devon to think that he was unfaithful ? india : ask the man who shelled out the big bucks . neil : i am so sorry , son . i - i did a terrible thing . devon : stop blaming yourself . neil : yeah , but i -- devon : please . no , no , no . stop . okay , i get it . i understand that you feel guilty and like you brought this on because you wished bad things to me and hilary when you found out about us , but that does n't mean that you 're responsible for her disappearing . neil : okay , i -- you have no idea -- devon : dad , it does n't work like that , okay ? this is n't your fault . i do n't want to see you tearing yourself up like this . all right ? it kills me to see you doing this to yourself . neil : can you just listen to me for a minute , okay ? i -- the last thing i want to do is cause you any more pain , okay ? devon : great . then tell me the truth . that 's all i want from you . just tell me the real truth . please . neil : the truth . okay . all right . i 'm gon na tell you the truth . marisa : we never should have rushed things with mariah and kevin . maybe if they 'd gone at their own pace , they would -- mariah : we would be 90 years old and celibate . noah : [ sighs ] well , at least now you guys know that there 's no future between you two . mariah : no . i know it . how am i gon na break it to kevin ? what 's gon na happen when i do ? he 's probably gon na stop talking to me , and then i 'm gon na have to move out or he 's gon na kick me out . i just -- i do n't understand why it could n't have been amazing . noah : some things are n't meant to be . mariah : yeah , just once , i wish they were . marisa : do n't we need to do inventory in the back ? noah : no . i did that yesterday . marisa : no , i - i mean the other inventory that you forgot to do . noah : right . oh , yeah . uh , just -- it 's hard to keep track of all the inventories around here . yeah , thank you for reminding me . we should ... do that . kevin : so ... about last night ... india : this session 's over . colin : uh , hope i did n't mess up your date . dylan : no , it was n't a date . colin : hey , it 's none of my business if you want to go and explore india . we -- we just wo n't tell the fiancée . dylan : is that what you said to devon ? threaten to expose a nonexistent affair with a prostitute ? or did you just go straight for the blackmail ? colin : [ sighs ] you know , us guys -- we -- we have this sacred bond . i mean , what happens at the bachelor party -- it stays at the bachelor party . dylan : yeah , except that you 're not like most guys , because most guys do n't blackmail people . so , what happened ? devon not pay up and you -- you kept your word and you told hilary that her new groom was unfaithful ? is that what happened ? something go down ? it get a little out of hand ? colin : somehow , i 'm not seeing a police badge on you . you might want to lay off , pal . dylan : a woman 's missing . nobody 's gon na lay off until she 's found . neil : [ sighs ] all right , um ... i 've been drinking again . uh , not much , but , you know , here and there . devon : dad , one drink is too much , man . neil : i know . i know . i thought i could control it , but obviously i 'm not thinking straight in my life right now . i 'm -- i mean , i - i - i took a drink because i - i had to forget about what was happening with hilary , her disappearance , everything that 's been going on in my life . devon : i get it . i get it . but you know that 's not the way to go about things . neil : yeah . i know . i 'm gon na go to meetings . i am . i 'm gon na go to meetings , and i 'm gon na -- i 'm gon na get sober , and i - i promise i 'll kick it . devon : listen to me , please . know that i will do anything and everything that i can to help you with it . neil : i do n't deserve this from you . devon : what are you talking about ? come on . please stop beating yourself up for me , all right ? let 's not do that . let 's put the past where it belongs , and that 's behind us . right now , we need to focus on getting you better and finding hilary , which i think we 've taken a big step towards . neil : what do you mean ? devon : michael and i have a solid lead . there was a private jet that was seen leaving virgin gorda the same day that hilary disappeared . so i think that she could be closer than we thought . michael : devon is hopeful that someone has transferred hilary to the states for treatment . paul : [ chuckles ] i 'd like to believe that , too , but at this point , that does n't seem like the most logical conclusion . michael : yeah , i know . i just do n't have the heart to tell devon yet . [ telephone rings ] paul : excuse me . chief williams . what ? you 're sure about that ? okay . okay . thanks for following up for me . i owe you one . wow . you 're not gon na believe this . you want a drink or -- or something to eat ? we have , um -- we have olives . and we have pimentos . there 's nothing like a good pimento to start your day . kevin : look , i 'm gon na pass on all that , 'cause we need to talk about what happened , okay . the thing is , when you get right down to it , the sex was -- it was totally not great . mariah : yeah , look , i know that 's how you feel , and i think that that 's really flattering . it 's -- did you say not great ? kevin : and i hate to disappoint you , 'cause i know how great it was for you . mariah : it was n't ! kevin : and i just wish that , for me , it had been but it was n't ? did you say it was n't ? like , you had as bad a time as i had ? mariah : oh , my god . it was awful . kevin : awkward . boring . mariah : a complete snooze - fest . kevin : [ sighs ] mariah : [ sighs ] i have never been so relieved in my life to have not turned somebody on . kevin : tell me about it . mariah : so , can we go back to being friends ? kevin : i can stand that if you can . mariah : i will find a way . kevin : [ chuckles ] ] ] mariah : okay . well , now that we 're friends again , um ... a little bit of advice . that thing that you do with the earlobes . kevin : oh , yeah , yeah . mariah : yeah , yeah . that 's not good . kevin : huh . mariah : no , it 's -- it 's bad . kevin : really ? i - i - i 've never had any complaints before . mariah : yeah , they were probably being polite . kevin : while we 're on the subject of what not to do , that growl thing that you did -- do not do that again . mariah : that was not -- that was not a growl . kevin : that was a growl . you growled . you scared me . mariah : it 's -- it 's not a growl . it 's like -- it 's like a purr . kevin : mm ... tomato , tomahto . colin : listen to me , dick tracy . i do n't know what happened to hilary , but it had nothing to do with me . i have n't crossed any city lines , much less gone to the virgin islands . dylan : then why do i get the feeling you 're not telling me something ? colin : 'cause you 're a guy with a suspicious nose who finds everything suspicious . look , i 'm no saint in this town , but i 'm not into kidnapping . i have a quiet existence . i 'm a - an upstanding citizen of genoa city . dylan : who just made a nation to eor service . colin : oh , well , i like to be a philanthropist . dylan : yeah , who put devon in a , uh , compromising position to get something out of it . colin : if i wanted to get something out of it , do you not think i would have offered up a ransom note by now ? dylan : yeah , but you 're not giving me answers . colin : you 're asking the wrong person the wrong questions . now , you look for someone with an ax to grind or ... someone who does n't want the happy couple to live happily ever after . back to the hilary case . the police are claiming there 's nothing new to report , but perhaps they 're looking in the wrong place . if my interview with husband devon is any indication , this playboy turned grieving newlywed has been investing his sizable fortune in a good acting coach . devon : me loving hilary is not extraordinary . the fact that that amazing woman loves me as much as she does -- that 's remarkable . and the fact that she wants and has chosen to spend the rest of her life with me -- that 's a blessing . and i 'm not going to rest until my beautiful wife is back home with me . lily : so , now that we 're all caught up , why do n't we head home . i know mattie will be excited to see you . cane : i 'd like that . i 'd like some family time .

[ scene_break ] natalie : when did tess come out ? brody : i 'm not sure exactly . probably right after jessica disappeared from the church . natalie : why did n't anyone tell me ? why did n't mom say something ? brody : we did n't want you to blame yourself . natalie : a little late for that . brody : there 's plenty of blame to go around . natalie : it just would 've been nice to know an hour ago . brody : well , like i said , plenty of blame . look . i need to get over to ford 's . natalie : you really think that she went over there ? brody : i followed them from the airport . they 're at his apartment playing house . natalie : oh , my god , this is unbelievable . all right . look . let 's go . brody : whoa , whoa , whoa . i 'll handle it , okay , and i 'll come right back . you just stay here and you take care of -- take care of liam .

aiden : hey , clyde . i asked your father to join us , because this concerns him too . look , you 've both been clients for a while , but now that has to change . i think it 's best for all concerned if we just cut our ties . right now . abigail : damn it . okay , abby , just ... just calm down . just ... just wait . kayla : thank you . chad : mm - hmm . actually , do you have a minute ?

kate : maybe i 'm not paranoid like other people . maybe i respect clyde 's privacy , which i 've heard people say makes for a healthy relationship . justin : hmm , funny . when i think of you and clyde , `` healthy `` is the last word that comes to mind . kate : okay , okay , look . i can handle myself . in case you 've forgotten , i was married to stefano and to victor , even though that was n't 100 % legal . justin : just because you 're used to swimming in the deep end does n't make it any less dangerous . clyde : seems you 're being a bit rash here , counselor . you 're saying we do n't cut it as clients . i think you 're using a double standard . i 've come to find out you 've represented a whole boatload of scum in your past . aiden : you 're talking about my pro bono work . well , that 's a completely different topic . so let me be blunt here . there are a lot of attorneys who 'd be happy to represent you both . i 'm just not one of them . ben : what the hell ?

chad : i was watching you sleep , and i was just thinking about how perfect you are . abigail : i 'm far from perfect , chad . chad : i messed up everything . and i would do anything to make it up to you , to make sure that you always had the best and that you were always happy , because that is what you do for the woman that you love . abigail : he said that -- he said that he would do whatever he could to make me happy , because that 's what you do for someone you love . kayla : so beautiful . ben : there 's nothing in the world that would mean more to me than if you agreed to put this ring on your finger and marry me . abigail : he said there 's no one in his life that he wants more than me . kayla : that 's so beautiful too . abigail : he said i needed to hear the truth . kayla : funny way to say it . it 's like a confession .

why would silas clay give me a place to stay ? morgan : because he 's a doctor , right ? so that means he probably has pretty nice digs . and , i mean , he is your father , so he 's , like , legally required to help you . kiki : no -- the last time i saw silas , i was a little busy telling franco that he was n't my father . i told him that i would talk to him later , and he 's still waiting . so ... morgan : still , it does n't hurt to ask . kiki : morgan ! i do n't know him ! morgan : okay . i 'm sorry . i do n't know what i 'm thinking . uh , we 'll find another place , all right ?

what if this little party of yours makes him suspicious ? what if he starts asking questions , and -- i do n't know -- puts two and two together ? ava : and comes up with absolutely nothing ? you just got through telling me there is nothing that connects derek wells with julian jerome ! derek : yeah , except my sister , who 's now planning parties with the guy that we 're trying to take down . ava : just give me a little credit , will you ? i 've been dealing with these people for months . derek : yeah , and gotten exactly nowhere . ava : are you serious ? i 'm the reason that morgan met kiki in the first place . me . not you , julian . so i would think twice before you forbid me to do anything ! i 'm the one who made sure they got married ! derek : [ exhales ] kiki : i 'm not exactly eager to start a relationship with silas clay . my whole life , i lived without a father . my mom told me that he was dead , and then one day , poof ! guess what , kiki ? he 's actually alive , and he is a murderer named franco . morgan : yeah , that 's a lot to process . kiki : yeah ! it completely freaked me out . then franco started to grow on me . i do n't know if it was because i was flattered because he cared so much , or maybe i bought into his plan that if he were good , he 'd be able to prove himself to me . i -- [ sighs ] all i know is that i started to see franco for something other than a freak . i saw him as a person . and just when i started to care , i find out that he 's not my father . morgan : kiki , i 'm -- i 'm sorry , okay ? i know this whole situation 's really screwed up . kiki : yeah ... except for one thing . you . [ chuckles ] you really help me keep my sanity through all of this , and without you , i would 've fallen apart . [ sighs ] anyway ... [ sighs ] so the answer is no . i do not want to bond with silas clay . morgan : look , i 'm not -- i 'm not defending the guy . i 'm just saying nothing that happened with franco was his fault . kiki : he still had the bad taste of getting with my mom to begin with , so that does n't really give him any points . morgan : i know you 're mad at your mom , but whatever -- kiki : mad ? mad ? no . mad does n't even begin to describe it . you know how much that hurt me ? someone that i love , someone that i trusted so much , lied to my face about something so important . [ sighs ] you 're right . it 's not silas clay 's fault for the things that my mom did , but that does n't mean that i want to have a relationship with him ! and it 's fine , because i have n't seen him in weeks , so i 'm just gon na keep on doing what i 'm doing , and ... the more space we keep between us , the better . right ? [ knock on door ] kiki : were you expecting someone ? morgan : well , maybe the q 's decided to kick us out early . kiki : well ... i 'll make them go away . sam : [ chuckles ] well , i guess silas has started to deal with the reality that he 's kiki 's father . alexis : well , i - i - i can say for sure that it 's not easy to all of a sudden find out you have an adult child . [ clicks tongue ] but i have to give him credit . he 's a good multi - tasker . he did find time through all of this to ask you out on a date ! sam : yes , he did . and i - i 've got to admit , silas and i -- we did get off to a bad start . and after a while , he -- he started to grow on me . and i do n't know . i - i guess , um , i 've started to see his -- his charm . alexis : you do n't say . sam : but ... we still have our differences . uh , uh , we do . i mean , i do n't know . maybe -- maybe i 've , uh -- i 've put up my defenses or something . something 's changed . i do n't know . maybe it 's that jason 's been gone for over a year now , and i 'm lonely , or -- i do n't know . maybe i 've gone completely insane , and i need to be institutionalized . alexis : [ chuckles ] heather : [ gasps ] finally ! hand over that gorgeous creature . oh , yeah . come to mama . ick ! franco : problem ? heather : i 'll say ! this sandwich was pre - owned ! someone took a bite out of it ! you brought me a used blt ! franco : no , i did n't , heather . i would n't do anything like that to you . heather : well , somebody took a bite out of it . it did n't bite itself ! franco : i did that . heather : you . franco : oh , yeah ! just could n't help myself . heather : well ... i can understand . it is irresistible . well , i do adore you , but ... germs are germs . [ grunts ] yeah ! mmm , mmm ! this is like heaven on earth ! that 's what i 'm talking about . mm - hmm . franco : you know , as much as i 'm enjoying your reunion with your little sandwich , and as much as i would like to give the two of you some privacy , this is my suite , and i 'm afraid i 'm gon na have to ask you to leave . heath : what is your problem ? franco : what is my problem ? you are my problem . you just ruined my life . carly : why would you bring me here , of all places ? i mean , if you wanted to gloat , we could 've just stayed at the restaurant at the metro court . felix : i wanted to put as much distance between you and that sleaze as possible . i mean , if that display does n't convince you that he 's a slime with -- carly : shh ! felix : no , you need to listen to what i 'm -- carly : stop talking ! look ! ava : [ speaking indistinctly ] carly : i wonder what the hell that 's all about . derek : [ speaking indistinctly ] alexis : you are not crazy , and you do not need to be institutionalized . well ... sam : [ chuckles ] alexis : i 'm saying that you 're young , okay ?

silas : i just did my job . on a good day , that means somebody gets to live , and ... today was a very good day . kiki : well , thank you for telling me that . silas : i 'm glad i got to see you . i wanted you to know that when danny got sick ... i could n't focus on anything else . that 's just kind of the way i am . now at he 's better , i can -- [ sighs ] i can think about other parts of my life , and ... i just wanted to reach out and say hello . that 's all . olivia : ava wants to throw a party . sonny : for morgan and kiki . olivia : i do n't care who it 's for ! sonny : but it 's for -- olivia : we 're burying connie tomorrow ! and she comes over here , and she wants to throw a party ? are you kidding me ? sonny : i had the same reaction , you know ? and then i -- i started thinking , you know , she said it 's for morgan , and then , you know , we can think of something positive . i - i think she was right when she started saying that ! olivia : how about ... it 's completely poorly timed , and completely insensitive ! you want to think about something positive , huh ? think about your baby granddaughter . little connie . honey , i just -- i just went to see her . she 's so ... beautiful and feisty ... just like her namesake . sonny : she 's beaut -- i mean ... a - ava was saying the same thing , you know ? it 's like ... how life is , and ... things like that . olivia : right . so , it sounds like you and ava really , um , hit it off , huh ? sonny : it turns out we got a lot in common , or at least a few things . olivia : like what ? ava : you should be thanking me for my genius , instead of trashing my idea to throw a party with sonny . everyone will be completely occupied while you make your move ! derek : you are completely missing the point . you knew how i felt about you making contact with sonny . and you completely ignored what i said . ava : get over it . i 'm not one of your soldiers . we are equal partners in crime . are n't we ? felix : okay , i recognize derek wells , but who 's the woman ? carly : ava jerome . my son 's married to her daughter . felix : is there a reason you 're not saying hello ? carly : yeah -- i ca n't stand her . felix : why not ? carly : because the first time i laid eyes on her , she was kissing franco . heather : excuse me ? how have i ruined your life ? i have n't even left the room ! franco : yeah , i know . that 's kind of the problem . heather : i do n't follow you . franco : [ sighs ] carly heard you in here , and now she thinks i 'm sleeping with you -- well , not you you , but someone , i guess , like you . and since my only other option was to tell her that i was harboring an escaped mental patient , i allowed her to think that that was the truth . heather : fyi , i 'm not escaped . the folks over at the miscavige institute do n't even know i 'm gone ! franco : [ sighs ] great ! thank you ! that makes me feel so much better ! heather : well , it certainly should ! i mean , it saves them the trouble of a statewide manhunt ! franco : whatever . it would 've been a disaster if carly had found you in here , but now she just thinks i 'm a sleaze ! [ sighs ] heather : [ scoffs ] who cares what carly thinks ? franco : i care . heather : why ? franco : because i care about her . heather : you do ? franco : yeah , i do . heather : since when ? franco : since ... i do n't know . i do n't know ! a while . and -- i was starting to hope that eventually ... she would be able to return those feelings . but now that 's just never gon na happen . heather : as far as i 'm concerned ... you dodged yourself a bullet there , baby -- literally . carly : [ quietly ] ava and franco were up to something when first met her , and i have n't trusted her since . look at her . you can tell she 's plotting something . felix : [ quietly ] mm . last time i saw mr. wells , he was in a hospital gown . but now he looks like he stepped off the cover of a gq . and ava 's no slouch , either ! carly : would you stop talking ? ! derek : you should consider your words more carefully , sister , because we 're not gon na be partners in anything unless you start running your ideas past me . ava : what difference does it make now ? we could n't have planned this any better if we tried . derek : and how 's that ? ava : as i was saying ... sonny is out of his mind with grief over the dear departed ... not to mention ... he 's bipolar . derek : what ? ava : mm - hmm ! and he 's on some pretty heavy - duty medication ! but i put it in his mind that maybe he ought to skip it . derek : a bipolar mob boss off his meds . [ chuckles ] well , that 's either a complete disaster or , um ... exactly the opening we need . ava : admit it . i took care of keeping sonny busy the night of the shipment . now , if you 'll excuse me ... i have a party to plan . derek : mm . [ both sigh ] felix : that was too close , girl . [ metal slams ] derek : who 's there ? olivia : so ... are you telling me that you and ava jerome are simpatico ? in what ways ? ava : i did n't mean to compare my loss to yours . sonny : seems like you 've said a lot of things that you do n't mean . ava : well , i have , have n't i ? that 's very unlike me . what i meant when i said i know how you feel ... is that i know what it 's like to go to that very dark place . sonny : ava 's , uh -- ava is , uh -- she 's crazy about morgan . she 's just thrilled that he -- he married her daughter . olivia : really ? sonny : she -- she wants our kids to start married life on the right foot . she wants us to put our grief over connie aside for one night ! we can celebrate , right ... in support of kiki and morgan . i do n't see anything wrong with that ! silas : this is where you can reach me -- either number . and no pressure . i know i 'm a stranger . but i would like to get to know you . and if you ever feel like giving me the chance ... just give me a call , you know ? we could , you know , maybe go get some coffee or ... go to a ball game ? no , maybe not a ball game , but we could -- you know what ? we could do whatever you want to do , okay ? ava : silas . kiki : mom . silas : ava . ava : what -- what are you doing here ? silas : oh , i 'm just talking to my daughter -- you know , the one that you kept from me for so long . kiki : i think the better question is what are you doing here ? ava : i -- well ... sweetheart , i came to see you ! i , uh -- i want to make things up to you if i can . kiki : well , that 's too bad ! ava : will you just hear me out ? kiki : [ sighs ] ava : i was talking to morgan 's father , and we agreed that the two of you should have a - a party ! sort of a -- a wedding reception . since you were married at the courthouse , we could n't celebrate with you . and that 's what we 'd like to offer you -- a chance for your families to show you love and support , and for everyone to get to know each other ! kiki : no , thanks . ava : kiki ... please ! i know that things are difficult between us right now , but ca n't you see that i 'm trying ? ! kiki : i can see that you 're putting on a show , which is what you always do , and i do n't buy it ! ava : what about morgan 's father ? sonny wants the two of you to have a celebration that you deserve ! so what do you say ? morgan ! morgan : kiki , it is just a party . why not say yes ? sam : i am grateful that you are looking out for me , mom . i want you to know that . alexis : it 's not so awful , is it ? sam : no ! i mean , it could be worse . you could be telling me who i can and can not be with . alexis : yeah , that worked out really well , did n't it ? sam : not so well . alexis : i know you 're an adult , and i know you 're perfectly capable of making your own decisions . but i am reserving the right to express my feelings . and if , at any time , i have concerns about silas or anyone else ... you 're gon na hear from me ! sam : okay ! that 's fine ! do n't worry ! i 'm more than aware that silas has his flaws ! i mean ... [ chuckles ] not everyone can be as perfect as ... derek wells . felix : ow ! what was that for ? carly : i saw the texts ! who is jennifer , and why is she sending you pictures of her in her bikini ? felix : uh -- carly : oh , great ! we have an audience here ! is n't that great , felix ? derek : my apologies . i did n't mean to interrupt . carly : mm . derek : are n't you mrs. jacks from the metro court ? carly : yes . do i know you ? derek : yeah . derek wells . i have an office space in your hotel . carly : oh ! of course ! derek : yeah . i 'm , uh -- i 'm sorry . i 've seen you around the hotel , but i 've never introduced myself . carly : oh , you do n't have to apologize ! i mean , i should recognize you . are n't you running the magazine that connie falconeri used to own ? derek : yeah . yeah . it was a -- it was a tragedy , what happened . it 's , um -- it 's a loss . carly : yeah , it was terrible . derek : yeah , i was just thinking about her right now . my , uh -- my art dealer friend was going on and on about these paintings i needed to buy , but , uh , i really was n't in the mood for that . i mean , one of my trusted employees was just , um ... murdered . so i , uh -- i dismissed her for the day . i 'm sure you saw her leave here in a huff . carly : no , we were a little busy . derek : okay . well , uh ... i 'll let you get back to your , uh , conversation . carly : yeah . felix : in case i forget to tell you -- ow . carly : i 'm sorry ! i 'm sorry ! i did n't know what else to do ! felix : no , it was a nice save , but , damn , you got a hard slap ! carly : mm . felix : you think he bought our story ? carly : i do n't care if he did ! he needs to worry if we bought his ! heather : if you ask me ... those brain doctors scooped out your common sense along with that tumor . carly jacks tried to have you killed . she 's dangerous ! franco : if carly did try and have me killed -- and i 'm not saying that she did -- do n't you think i deserved it ? heather : what are you talking about ? franco : i 've done despicable things in my life . i 've done despicable things to carly , to all the people she cares about . i felt like things were shifting in me . carly looked at me like i might be changing . and i started to hope ... that i might have ... a normal life . who knows ? maybe even a normal life with carly . heather : oh , lucky you ! franco : now that 's all over before it even started . never gon na get carly to love me now . heather : well , if it 's any consolation ... i still love you ! morgan : hey , why do n't you give your mom a break , okay ? she 's trying to make things right . ava : i really am . why do n't you just take this for what it is -- a good - faith gesture to celebrate your marriage to morgan . but we ca n't do that without the bride , can we ? so , please . tell me you 'll be there . kiki : can i invite someone ? ava : yes ! of course ! anybody you want ! just tell me who it is , and i 'll make sure they 're on the guest list . wh - who would you like to invite , honey ? kiki : the father of the bride ! um , you do n't have a problem with that , do you , mom , considering you kept us apart for 21 years ? ava : anything you want . it 's your party . kiki : so , what do you say ? will you come ? silas : sure . i 'll be there . alexis : when did i say that derek wells was perfect ? sam : you did n't have to . alexis : i did n't say that he was perfect . sam : but he 's interesting ! alexis : i said he was nice , and he very generously -- sam : i know you said you were n't interested in anyone . i said i was n't , either . look -- i 'm going out on a date with silas ! alexis : you also said that you had lost your mind and that you should be institutionalized . sam : yeah , i did , and maybe i was right . i mean , is n't it always a little crazy to put yourself out there , throw caution to the wind ? but look ! i 'm -- i 'm doing it ! i 'm going out on a date with silas ! maybe you should give derek a chance ! derek : did i hear my name ? felix : do n't tell me you had a problem with mr . hot - o - sexual derek wells . carly : what are you talking about ? felix : do n't knock it ! a man like that could help you erase the picture of franco and his groupie doing paint - by - numbers in the hotel room . you know what i mean ? heather : i do n't suppose you brought seconds . franco : sadly , heather , all the bacon in the world is gone . heather : [ gasps ] do n't even joke about that . franco : you 're right . that 's mean . i 'm sorry . heather : well , i 'd better get going back to the institute before they realize i 'm gone . do n't take this the wrong way , but ... hanging around with a heartsick birthday boy is n't the way i want to get caught . franco : yeah , i do n't blame you . heather : oh , cheer up , frankie . i 'm sure someday soon , you 'll find a woman that 's worthy of you . and she 'll turn that frown into a smile . franco : i do n't know about that . heather : i can tell you one thing . you could sure do a lot better than carly jacks . carly : i 'm finished discussing franco with you . felix : okay ! that sounds like a step in the right direction ! mr . hot - off - the- press sounds like he 'd be more than capable of providing a distraction . carly : and you accuse me of having bad taste in men . there is no way that ava jerome is his art dealer ! derek wells is lying through his teeth ! felix : okay . if it was n't about art , then what was it about ? carly : i do n't know , but i 'm gon na find out ! felix : oh , sounds good to me ! carly : why 's that ? felix : what better way to take your mind off the weasel with an easel than to dig up dirt on derek wells ? alexis : derek ! uh ... we were just talking about you because we were wondering if ... you wanted to come back and visit after you get done with your business . derek : oh . alexis : how 's it going , anyway ? derek : could n't be better ! as a matter of fact , things are going so well ... that i think the thing i 've been working on is gon na go just the way i 'd hoped . olivia : um ... i still think this party 's a bad idea , but i ... do n't feel like fighting you on it right now . sonny : i 'm glad to hear it . olivia : we should probably try to get some rest . we got connie 's funeral first thing in the morning . so , um ... i was thinking that i would go back to my place , if you think you 're gon na be all right . sonny : i 'm fine . olivia : okay . sonny : i appreciate everything that you 've done with this , you know , as far as connie , and -- olivia : right . sonny : 'cause she got killed . olivia : i 'm gon na get going . do n't forget to take your meds . sonny : oh , i wo n't . ava : and i wanted to feel that pain ... because i caused what happened . going to that dark place was ... it 's my penance . i wonder which punishment is worse -- feeling too much of something ... or nothing at all . | shawn tells sonny that julian jerome is in charge of the organization that is trying to muscle in on their territory . sonny says julian jerome is dead and concludes that vince lied to shawn . sonny yells at shawn for letting vince go . olivia says it might not be a coincidence that two people with the last name `` jerome `` recently moved into town . sonny says ava and kiki are n't related to those jeromes . he says ava is throwing a party for morgan and kiki . olivia does n't like the idea of a party or of sonny getting close to ava . on the docks , derek tells ava that sonny wo n't know what happened when they hijack his shipment because nothing connects derek wells with julian jerome . he says he just needs to make sure sonny is n't around when it happens . ava says she has already taken care of that because sonny will be at her party . he says he told her to stay away from sonny . ava says derek is n't her boss . she says she discovered that sonny is bipolar and planted the seed that he does n't need to take his meds . at sonny 's house , he throws away his bottle of lithium after promising olivia that he 'd take them . | <s>[INST] shawn : the guys who have been hitting our shipments , the ones muscling onto our territory -- we know who 's in charge . sonny : who ? shawn : julian jerome . sonny : there 's only one problem with that . julian jerome 's dead ! ava : a quick death was too good for that rat , if you ask me . derek : hmm . well , at least i did n't lose my touch . now that i 've taken care of that annoying piece of business , i need to go check in on my daughter . silas : danny 's doing really well . i 'm -- i 'm gon na take off , okay ? alexis : not so fast , dr. clay ! silas : i 'm sorry . is there a problem ? alexis : well , it 's -- it 's not so much a problem , but a question . sam : mom ! alexis : what deal were you striking when i -- when i just walked in on the two of you ? sam : stop that ! mom -- you do not have to answer that . alexis : sure , he does ! i 'm her mother . sam : what are you talking about ? i am not a teenager anymore . alexis : well , then , maybe you want to answer . sam : fine . um ... it 's just that we -- alexis : just what ? that what ? silas : we were just ... making plans to go out for dinner . [ cash register dings ] [ door opens ] kiki : morgan ! morgan : hi ! where you been ? i missed you . kiki : you do n't even want to know . morgan : and yet i have a feeling you 're gon na go ahead and tell me anyway . kiki : i had a meeting with the wicked witch of the east and west , otherwise known as monica and tracy . morgan : why would you want to do that ? kiki : i did n't want to do it . it was n't up to me . [ chuckles dryly ] they 're voting us off of quartermaine island . morgan : voting us off ? kiki : they 're evicting us , just like they did to my dad -- [ sighs ] ... i mean franco . franco : can i help you ? felix : uh , correct me if i 'm wrong , but is n't that franco ? carly : it is . felix : okay . if he 's out here ... carly : who 's in there ? carly : who 's in your room ? franco : no one 's in my room . felix : we heard a noise . franco : you heard a rat . carly : i do n't have rats in my hotel . franco : you have ghosts -- felix : you 're gon na have to do better than that , unless you want us to open the door and walk in on whoever you 're hiding ! franco : you 're , like , uh , mr . suspicious guy ! anybody ever tell you that ? felix : call me paranoid , but i do n't trust known serial killers . franco : alleged serial killer -- nothing 's ever been proven . in fact , all the charges have been dropped , because i suffer from -- felix : okay , he 's stalling . i 'll control the artiste . you check and see what he 's hiding . [ beep ] morgan : this does n't make any sense . since when did tracy and monica agree on anything ? kiki : well , they did come to a meeting of the minds . 'cause , first , they gave my mom the boot -- which she completely deserved , by the way . and then , as soon as franco was dropped of all of his charges , they kicked him out , too ! i guess they do n't need him or his elq shares anymore . morgan : yeah , well , i - i can see why they would get rid of franco , but what -- kiki : well , guess what ? now it 's time for us to pack up and move out . morgan : but why ? it 's -- it 's not like we 're living in the main house . a couple months ago , this place was nothing but oars and flotation devices . kiki : morgan , do n't you get it ? the only reason the quartermaines let us stay here was because they thought i was one of them and that i was in a position to make demands . but i 'm not a member of their family . franco 's not my dad . silas clay is . alexis : so , you two are going to go out on a date ... with each other . sam : well , uh , that was -- silas : it usually takes two . sam : we were gon na do that . alexis : okay . sam : mm - hmm . alexis : great ! sam : [ chuckles ] silas : great ? alexis : great ! silas : are you sure ? 'cause i had the distinct impression that you did not like me . alexis : oh , i did n't . uh , before you saved danny 's life , i really could n't stand you . you know , that whole thing with rafe , and -- and then in court , when you implied that she was an unfit -- sam : mom ! come on . silas : yeah , i did . and i could n't have been more wrong . i 've seen it firsthand . you are a -- you 're a great mother , sam . truth is , if anyone -- if anyone does n't deserve to be a parent , it 's me . ava : are you serious ? you 're going back to the hospital ? derek : i 'd like to check in on my daughter and grandson , if it 's all the same with you . ava : have you forgotten that your less - than - loyal soldier vince just gave you up to sonny 's goons ? derek : uh ... no , he gave julian jerome up to sonny 's goons -- a man who died two decades ago . ava : except for the fact that he 's standing right in front of me . derek : yes , well , i 've got a new identity , not to mention a new face , to go along with my new life -- derek wells , respectable businessman -- so when we go after sonny ... he wo n't know what hit him . sonny : julian jerome died in a shootout years ago . shawn : are you sure ? sonny : the jeromes controlled most of port charles in the ' 80s along with the mckays . they are long gone . shawn : look , man . i do n't know what to say , man . that 's the name vince gave me . sonny : did it ever occur to you he could be lying ? shawn : the man was scared . he was ready to crack , okay ? look . max and i , we threatened him with the deep fryer -- the whole nine . sonny : okay . shawn : the guy was caving in as soon as the oil started bubbling , man ! i was sure he was telling me the truth ! sonny : did you let him go ? shawn : yeah . sonny : so that 's how you do your job , shawn ? ! by just letting him go when he 's lying to you ! olivia : s - sonny , what 's going on here ? derek : although it really is a shame about vince . i mean , he 's the last person i thought would ever turn on me . no matter . corinthos is still in the dark . there 's no way for my new identity to come to light . i mean , even if he does believe vince 's stories , there 's no record linking derek wells to julian jerome . so when we hijack his shipment , corinthos wo n't know where to look . ava : no one could ever accuse you of a lack of confidence . derek : except there 's one remaining hiccup . i have to make sure that sonny 's nowhere near the action . ava : well , then , you can thank me , brother dear . the night the deal goes down , sonny will be more than occupied at my party . derek : you 're having a party ? ava : yeah ! i 'm throwing it with sonny , actually , to celebrate the union between his son and my daughter . and so , while sonny is toasting the happy couple , you 'll be making off with his shipment . derek : [ sighs , chuckles ] what ... exactly ... did you do ? ava : i went to see sonny . we had a lovely chat . he really is a very interesting man . and something tells me that if he were firing on all cylinders , he would be quite a challenge . so we are fortunate that he 's nearly crippled by grief at the moment . by the way ... you 're welcome . derek : y - yeah , that 's all wonderful , except ... i specifically told you to stay away from sonny . what the hell is wrong with you ? shawn : you know , i 'm - a -- i 'm - a get out of here . sonny : yeah , you do that , shawn ! olivia : [ sighs ] okay . what is that all about ? sonny , why are you so mad at shawn ? sonny : he was supposed to find out about somebody who 's muscling into my territory , and he -- he came up with a name . olivia : and that 's a bad thing ? sonny : yeah , it 's a bad thing when the name turns up to be a dead man . olivia : who ? sonny : julian jerome , which is impossible . olivia : well ... maybe not . sonny : what do you know about it ? olivia : uh , nothing ! i do n't know anything except for ... two people named jerome just moved into this town . and your son 's married to one of them . morgan : what about your dad ? not -- not franco . the real one , silas . kiki : what ? why would silas clay give me a place to stay ? morgan : because he 's a doctor , right ? so that means he probably has pretty nice digs . and , i mean , he is your father , so he 's , like , legally required to help you . kiki : no -- the last time i saw silas , i was a little busy telling franco that he was n't my father . i told him that i would talk to him later , and he 's still waiting . so ... morgan : still , it does n't hurt to ask . kiki : morgan ! i do n't know him ! morgan : okay . i 'm sorry . i do n't know what i 'm thinking . uh , we 'll find another place , all right ? i 'll make sure of it . kiki : okay . morgan : okay ? kiki : that is why i married you . morgan : [ chuckles ] mm . but , i mean , why -- why -- why do n't you try to talk to silas ? i mean , he is your father . do n't you want to get to know him at all ? kiki : to tell you the truth , i do n't . silas : you know , i should 've done this before . i 'm sorry about those things that i said . not only were they completely untrue ... i was in no position to judge . sam : i - i really do n't know what you 're talking about , because you and rafe have made really good progress . i 'm not saying you 're uncle of the year or anything , but your relationship is in a lot better place than when you first met him . silas : the thing is , i did n't know anything about kids ! i mean , what was i supposed to do -- you tell me . sam : i - i - i tried to tell you before ! i mean , it would 've been great if you got to try to know him first before you just showed up unannounced , trying to take custody of him . i mean , get to know him on -- on his terms in some way . silas : all right . great . thank you for that . sam : not that you need my advice anymore , because rafe -- i think he really likes you . i mean , he 's seen what you 've done for danny , and -- [ sighs ] this has nothing to do with rafe ... does it ? this is about kiki . silas : like i said , sam , i got to get going . i 'll call you about that dinner sometime . good night , sam . sam : good night , silas . franco : wait , wait ! carly , you ca n't go in there . felix : why not ? what do n't you want us to find , or who ? oh , you got someone kidnapped in there ! you got them chained to the radiator ! carly : i do n't have radiators . felix : well , she 's chained to something ! she 's bound and gagged and desperately trying to get our attention ! carly : do n't you think you 're going a little overboard ? felix : let me remind you we 're talking about franco -- the man who considers death an art form . you know what ? enough stalling ! open the door ! franco : wait , wait , wait ! i , uh -- there -- there -- [ clears throat ] yeah , there -- there 's , uh -- there 's a - a woman in there . carly : there is ? franco : yeah . felix : and do you have her held against her will ? franco : no , she really , really wants to be there . felix : [ scoffs , laughs ] you 're kidding . he got a hooker in there . carly : no , it 's not a hooker , 'cause he does n't have any money . wow , you did n't waste any time . how long was i gone -- an hour ? felix : [ chuckles ] man works fast . carly : yeah . looks like you worked up an appetite . you went and got a snack , huh ? franco : carly , this is not what it looks like . carly : i do n't care what it looks like ! i do n't give a damn ! i mean , it 's none of my business who you sleep with ! it 's not like you 're gon na have me , at all ! you can stay here in my hotel . i just need a credit card -- one that works . franco : you do n't understand . felix : oh , she understands perfectly . come on , carly . carly : goodbye , franco . felix : i hate to tell you i told you so -- carly : but you 're going to ! felix : yeah , i told you so . sonny : there 's no link ... between ava and kiki as far as the jerome crime family . olivia : w - what do you actually know about ava jerome , other than the fact that she was lying to kiki about who her father was ? sonny : maybe she had good reason . olivia : now you 're defending this woman . you do n't even know her ? sonny : oh , i know her . she was here earlier . she wanted to pay her respects . olivia : oh . so ava jerome showed up here with what -- a plate of cookies and some baked ziti to offer her condolences to you ? sonny : she did n't bring any food . she just -- she ... brought an idea . yeah . olivia : about what ? sonny : she wants to throw a party for morgan and kiki . derek : not only did you go see sonny , you are now planning parties with him . ava : inspired , do n't you think ? derek : not the word i 'd use . and just so we 're clear ... staying away from somebody does n't translate to co - hosting social functions with them . ava : as long as we 're making things clear ... you 're not my boss . derek : this is business , ava . i do n't want you complicating the plan , if you have n't derailed it entirely . ava : if you would stop lecturing me and just let me -- derek : what if you tipped him off ? what if this little party of yours makes him suspicious ? what if he starts asking questions , and -- i do n't know -- puts two and two together ? ava : and comes up with absolutely nothing ? you just got through telling me there is nothing that connects derek wells with julian jerome ! derek : yeah , except my sister , who 's now planning parties with the guy that we 're trying to take down . ava : just give me a little credit , will you ? i 've been dealing with these people for months . derek : yeah , and gotten exactly nowhere . ava : are you serious ? i 'm the reason that morgan met kiki in the first place . me . not you , julian . so i would think twice before you forbid me to do anything ! i 'm the one who made sure they got married ! derek : [ exhales ] kiki : i 'm not exactly eager to start a relationship with silas clay . my whole life , i lived without a father . my mom told me that he was dead , and then one day , poof ! guess what , kiki ? he 's actually alive , and he is a murderer named franco . morgan : yeah , that 's a lot to process . kiki : yeah ! it completely freaked me out . then franco started to grow on me . i do n't know if it was because i was flattered because he cared so much , or maybe i bought into his plan that if he were good , he 'd be able to prove himself to me . i -- [ sighs ] all i know is that i started to see franco for something other than a freak . i saw him as a person . and just when i started to care , i find out that he 's not my father . morgan : kiki , i 'm -- i 'm sorry , okay ? i know this whole situation 's really screwed up . kiki : yeah ... except for one thing . you . [ chuckles ] you really help me keep my sanity through all of this , and without you , i would 've fallen apart . [ sighs ] anyway ... [ sighs ] so the answer is no . i do not want to bond with silas clay . morgan : look , i 'm not -- i 'm not defending the guy . i 'm just saying nothing that happened with franco was his fault . kiki : he still had the bad taste of getting with my mom to begin with , so that does n't really give him any points . morgan : i know you 're mad at your mom , but whatever -- kiki : mad ? mad ? no . mad does n't even begin to describe it . you know how much that hurt me ? someone that i love , someone that i trusted so much , lied to my face about something so important . [ sighs ] you 're right . it 's not silas clay 's fault for the things that my mom did , but that does n't mean that i want to have a relationship with him ! and it 's fine , because i have n't seen him in weeks , so i 'm just gon na keep on doing what i 'm doing , and ... the more space we keep between us , the better . right ? [ knock on door ] kiki : were you expecting someone ? morgan : well , maybe the q 's decided to kick us out early . kiki : well ... i 'll make them go away . sam : [ chuckles ] well , i guess silas has started to deal with the reality that he 's kiki 's father . alexis : well , i - i - i can say for sure that it 's not easy to all of a sudden find out you have an adult child . [ clicks tongue ] but i have to give him credit . he 's a good multi - tasker . he did find time through all of this to ask you out on a date ! sam : yes , he did . and i - i 've got to admit , silas and i -- we did get off to a bad start . and after a while , he -- he started to grow on me . and i do n't know . i - i guess , um , i 've started to see his -- his charm . alexis : you do n't say . sam : but ... we still have our differences . uh , uh , we do . i mean , i do n't know . maybe -- maybe i 've , uh -- i 've put up my defenses or something . something 's changed . i do n't know . maybe it 's that jason 's been gone for over a year now , and i 'm lonely , or -- i do n't know . maybe i 've gone completely insane , and i need to be institutionalized . alexis : [ chuckles ] heather : [ gasps ] finally ! hand over that gorgeous creature . oh , yeah . come to mama . ick ! franco : problem ? heather : i 'll say ! this sandwich was pre - owned ! someone took a bite out of it ! you brought me a used blt ! franco : no , i did n't , heather . i would n't do anything like that to you . heather : well , somebody took a bite out of it . it did n't bite itself ! franco : i did that . heather : you . franco : oh , yeah ! just could n't help myself . heather : well ... i can understand . it is irresistible . well , i do adore you , but ... germs are germs . [ grunts ] yeah ! mmm , mmm ! this is like heaven on earth ! that 's what i 'm talking about . mm - hmm . franco : you know , as much as i 'm enjoying your reunion with your little sandwich , and as much as i would like to give the two of you some privacy , this is my suite , and i 'm afraid i 'm gon na have to ask you to leave . heath : what is your problem ? franco : what is my problem ? you are my problem . you just ruined my life . carly : why would you bring me here , of all places ? i mean , if you wanted to gloat , we could 've just stayed at the restaurant at the metro court . felix : i wanted to put as much distance between you and that sleaze as possible . i mean , if that display does n't convince you that he 's a slime with -- carly : shh ! felix : no , you need to listen to what i 'm -- carly : stop talking ! look ! ava : [ speaking indistinctly ] carly : i wonder what the hell that 's all about . derek : [ speaking indistinctly ] alexis : you are not crazy , and you do not need to be institutionalized . well ... sam : [ chuckles ] alexis : i 'm saying that you 're young , okay ? and -- and you have your whole life ahead of you . and i do n't want to see you spend it alone . sam : let 's not get carried away . silas and i , we agreed to have some -- some dinner at , like , some vague future time ! that 's it ! alexis : well , whatever it is , i 'm glad that you 're putting yourself out there , because you deserve a personal life after everything you 've been through . sam : hmm . so you 're okay with me going out with silas ? alexis : if it makes you happy to go out with silas , i 'm perfectly fine with it . sam : [ groans ] `` but . `` i knew there 'd be a catch ! go ahead ! give it to me . what ? alexis : i just want you to know that i am watching out for you . and silas has n't proven himself totally to me . morgan : it 's pretty late , is n't it , dude ? i mean , kiki and i were just about to hit the sh -- [ clears throat ] [ stammering ] we were gon na go to bed . silas : do n't call me `` dude . `` listen , i apologize for the late hour , and ... i do n't blame you if you do n't want to ... see me . i know your mom did a number on you , telling you that franco was your father , and then ... the two of you had a relationship -- i saw that . and all of a sudden , the news comes out that i 'm your father , and ... that hit me pretty hard . i can only imagine that 's strange as hell for you . kiki : strange does n't even begin to describe it . silas : i can only imagine . anyway , i came by because i thought you 'd like to know that , um ... danny 's gon na be okay . he 's gon na recover . kiki : he 's -- he 's going to be okay ? he 's -- silas : yeah ! you know , he 's , uh -- he 's a tough little guy , you know ? he hung in there , and the transplant 's taking . kiki : oh , my g -- that 's amazing news ! and -- and ... you were the doctor that helped him get through all of that , right ? silas : i just did my job . on a good day , that means somebody gets to live , and ... today was a very good day . kiki : well , thank you for telling me that . silas : i 'm glad i got to see you . i wanted you to know that when danny got sick ... i could n't focus on anything else . that 's just kind of the way i am . now at he 's better , i can -- [ sighs ] i can think about other parts of my life , and ... i just wanted to reach out and say hello . that 's all . olivia : ava wants to throw a party . sonny : for morgan and kiki . olivia : i do n't care who it 's for ! sonny : but it 's for -- olivia : we 're burying connie tomorrow ! and she comes over here , and she wants to throw a party ? are you kidding me ? sonny : i had the same reaction , you know ? and then i -- i started thinking , you know , she said it 's for morgan , and then , you know , we can think of something positive . i - i think she was right when she started saying that ! olivia : how about ... it 's completely poorly timed , and completely insensitive ! you want to think about something positive , huh ? think about your baby granddaughter . little connie . honey , i just -- i just went to see her . she 's so ... beautiful and feisty ... just like her namesake . sonny : she 's beaut -- i mean ... a - ava was saying the same thing , you know ? it 's like ... how life is , and ... things like that . olivia : right . so , it sounds like you and ava really , um , hit it off , huh ? sonny : it turns out we got a lot in common , or at least a few things . olivia : like what ? ava : you should be thanking me for my genius , instead of trashing my idea to throw a party with sonny . everyone will be completely occupied while you make your move ! derek : you are completely missing the point . you knew how i felt about you making contact with sonny . and you completely ignored what i said . ava : get over it . i 'm not one of your soldiers . we are equal partners in crime . are n't we ? felix : okay , i recognize derek wells , but who 's the woman ? carly : ava jerome . my son 's married to her daughter . felix : is there a reason you 're not saying hello ? carly : yeah -- i ca n't stand her . felix : why not ? carly : because the first time i laid eyes on her , she was kissing franco . heather : excuse me ? how have i ruined your life ? i have n't even left the room ! franco : yeah , i know . that 's kind of the problem . heather : i do n't follow you . franco : [ sighs ] carly heard you in here , and now she thinks i 'm sleeping with you -- well , not you you , but someone , i guess , like you . and since my only other option was to tell her that i was harboring an escaped mental patient , i allowed her to think that that was the truth . heather : fyi , i 'm not escaped . the folks over at the miscavige institute do n't even know i 'm gone ! franco : [ sighs ] great ! thank you ! that makes me feel so much better ! heather : well , it certainly should ! i mean , it saves them the trouble of a statewide manhunt ! franco : whatever . it would 've been a disaster if carly had found you in here , but now she just thinks i 'm a sleaze ! [ sighs ] heather : [ scoffs ] who cares what carly thinks ? franco : i care . heather : why ? franco : because i care about her . heather : you do ? franco : yeah , i do . heather : since when ? franco : since ... i do n't know . i do n't know ! a while . and -- i was starting to hope that eventually ... she would be able to return those feelings . but now that 's just never gon na happen . heather : as far as i 'm concerned ... you dodged yourself a bullet there , baby -- literally . carly : [ quietly ] ava and franco were up to something when first met her , and i have n't trusted her since . look at her . you can tell she 's plotting something . felix : [ quietly ] mm . last time i saw mr. wells , he was in a hospital gown . but now he looks like he stepped off the cover of a gq . and ava 's no slouch , either ! carly : would you stop talking ? ! derek : you should consider your words more carefully , sister , because we 're not gon na be partners in anything unless you start running your ideas past me . ava : what difference does it make now ? we could n't have planned this any better if we tried . derek : and how 's that ? ava : as i was saying ... sonny is out of his mind with grief over the dear departed ... not to mention ... he 's bipolar . derek : what ? ava : mm - hmm ! and he 's on some pretty heavy - duty medication ! but i put it in his mind that maybe he ought to skip it . derek : a bipolar mob boss off his meds . [ chuckles ] well , that 's either a complete disaster or , um ... exactly the opening we need . ava : admit it . i took care of keeping sonny busy the night of the shipment . now , if you 'll excuse me ... i have a party to plan . derek : mm . [ both sigh ] felix : that was too close , girl . [ metal slams ] derek : who 's there ? olivia : so ... are you telling me that you and ava jerome are simpatico ? in what ways ? ava : i did n't mean to compare my loss to yours . sonny : seems like you 've said a lot of things that you do n't mean . ava : well , i have , have n't i ? that 's very unlike me . what i meant when i said i know how you feel ... is that i know what it 's like to go to that very dark place . sonny : ava 's , uh -- ava is , uh -- she 's crazy about morgan . she 's just thrilled that he -- he married her daughter . olivia : really ? sonny : she -- she wants our kids to start married life on the right foot . she wants us to put our grief over connie aside for one night ! we can celebrate , right ... in support of kiki and morgan . i do n't see anything wrong with that ! silas : this is where you can reach me -- either number . and no pressure . i know i 'm a stranger . but i would like to get to know you . and if you ever feel like giving me the chance ... just give me a call , you know ? we could , you know , maybe go get some coffee or ... go to a ball game ? no , maybe not a ball game , but we could -- you know what ? we could do whatever you want to do , okay ? ava : silas . kiki : mom . silas : ava . ava : what -- what are you doing here ? silas : oh , i 'm just talking to my daughter -- you know , the one that you kept from me for so long . kiki : i think the better question is what are you doing here ? ava : i -- well ... sweetheart , i came to see you ! i , uh -- i want to make things up to you if i can . kiki : well , that 's too bad ! ava : will you just hear me out ? kiki : [ sighs ] ava : i was talking to morgan 's father , and we agreed that the two of you should have a - a party ! sort of a -- a wedding reception . since you were married at the courthouse , we could n't celebrate with you . and that 's what we 'd like to offer you -- a chance for your families to show you love and support , and for everyone to get to know each other ! kiki : no , thanks . ava : kiki ... please ! i know that things are difficult between us right now , but ca n't you see that i 'm trying ? ! kiki : i can see that you 're putting on a show , which is what you always do , and i do n't buy it ! ava : what about morgan 's father ? sonny wants the two of you to have a celebration that you deserve ! so what do you say ? morgan ! morgan : kiki , it is just a party . why not say yes ? sam : i am grateful that you are looking out for me , mom . i want you to know that . alexis : it 's not so awful , is it ? sam : no ! i mean , it could be worse . you could be telling me who i can and can not be with . alexis : yeah , that worked out really well , did n't it ? sam : not so well . alexis : i know you 're an adult , and i know you 're perfectly capable of making your own decisions . but i am reserving the right to express my feelings . and if , at any time , i have concerns about silas or anyone else ... you 're gon na hear from me ! sam : okay ! that 's fine ! do n't worry ! i 'm more than aware that silas has his flaws ! i mean ... [ chuckles ] not everyone can be as perfect as ... derek wells . felix : ow ! what was that for ? carly : i saw the texts ! who is jennifer , and why is she sending you pictures of her in her bikini ? felix : uh -- carly : oh , great ! we have an audience here ! is n't that great , felix ? derek : my apologies . i did n't mean to interrupt . carly : mm . derek : are n't you mrs. jacks from the metro court ? carly : yes . do i know you ? derek : yeah . derek wells . i have an office space in your hotel . carly : oh ! of course ! derek : yeah . i 'm , uh -- i 'm sorry . i 've seen you around the hotel , but i 've never introduced myself . carly : oh , you do n't have to apologize ! i mean , i should recognize you . are n't you running the magazine that connie falconeri used to own ? derek : yeah . yeah . it was a -- it was a tragedy , what happened . it 's , um -- it 's a loss . carly : yeah , it was terrible . derek : yeah , i was just thinking about her right now . my , uh -- my art dealer friend was going on and on about these paintings i needed to buy , but , uh , i really was n't in the mood for that . i mean , one of my trusted employees was just , um ... murdered . so i , uh -- i dismissed her for the day . i 'm sure you saw her leave here in a huff . carly : no , we were a little busy . derek : okay . well , uh ... i 'll let you get back to your , uh , conversation . carly : yeah . felix : in case i forget to tell you -- ow . carly : i 'm sorry ! i 'm sorry ! i did n't know what else to do ! felix : no , it was a nice save , but , damn , you got a hard slap ! carly : mm . felix : you think he bought our story ? carly : i do n't care if he did ! he needs to worry if we bought his ! heather : if you ask me ... those brain doctors scooped out your common sense along with that tumor . carly jacks tried to have you killed . she 's dangerous ! franco : if carly did try and have me killed -- and i 'm not saying that she did -- do n't you think i deserved it ? heather : what are you talking about ? franco : i 've done despicable things in my life . i 've done despicable things to carly , to all the people she cares about . i felt like things were shifting in me . carly looked at me like i might be changing . and i started to hope ... that i might have ... a normal life . who knows ? maybe even a normal life with carly . heather : oh , lucky you ! franco : now that 's all over before it even started . never gon na get carly to love me now . heather : well , if it 's any consolation ... i still love you ! morgan : hey , why do n't you give your mom a break , okay ? she 's trying to make things right . ava : i really am . why do n't you just take this for what it is -- a good - faith gesture to celebrate your marriage to morgan . but we ca n't do that without the bride , can we ? so , please . tell me you 'll be there . kiki : can i invite someone ? ava : yes ! of course ! anybody you want ! just tell me who it is , and i 'll make sure they 're on the guest list . wh - who would you like to invite , honey ? kiki : the father of the bride ! um , you do n't have a problem with that , do you , mom , considering you kept us apart for 21 years ? ava : anything you want . it 's your party . kiki : so , what do you say ? will you come ? silas : sure . i 'll be there . alexis : when did i say that derek wells was perfect ? sam : you did n't have to . alexis : i did n't say that he was perfect . sam : but he 's interesting ! alexis : i said he was nice , and he very generously -- sam : i know you said you were n't interested in anyone . i said i was n't , either . look -- i 'm going out on a date with silas ! alexis : you also said that you had lost your mind and that you should be institutionalized . sam : yeah , i did , and maybe i was right . i mean , is n't it always a little crazy to put yourself out there , throw caution to the wind ? but look ! i 'm -- i 'm doing it ! i 'm going out on a date with silas ! maybe you should give derek a chance ! derek : did i hear my name ? felix : do n't tell me you had a problem with mr . hot - o - sexual derek wells . carly : what are you talking about ? felix : do n't knock it ! a man like that could help you erase the picture of franco and his groupie doing paint - by - numbers in the hotel room . you know what i mean ? heather : i do n't suppose you brought seconds . franco : sadly , heather , all the bacon in the world is gone . heather : [ gasps ] do n't even joke about that . franco : you 're right . that 's mean . i 'm sorry . heather : well , i 'd better get going back to the institute before they realize i 'm gone . do n't take this the wrong way , but ... hanging around with a heartsick birthday boy is n't the way i want to get caught . franco : yeah , i do n't blame you . heather : oh , cheer up , frankie . i 'm sure someday soon , you 'll find a woman that 's worthy of you . and she 'll turn that frown into a smile . franco : i do n't know about that . heather : i can tell you one thing . you could sure do a lot better than carly jacks . carly : i 'm finished discussing franco with you . felix : okay ! that sounds like a step in the right direction ! mr . hot - off - the- press sounds like he 'd be more than capable of providing a distraction . carly : and you accuse me of having bad taste in men . there is no way that ava jerome is his art dealer ! derek wells is lying through his teeth ! felix : okay . if it was n't about art , then what was it about ? carly : i do n't know , but i 'm gon na find out ! felix : oh , sounds good to me ! carly : why 's that ? felix : what better way to take your mind off the weasel with an easel than to dig up dirt on derek wells ? alexis : derek ! uh ... we were just talking about you because we were wondering if ... you wanted to come back and visit after you get done with your business . derek : oh . alexis : how 's it going , anyway ? derek : could n't be better ! as a matter of fact , things are going so well ... that i think the thing i 've been working on is gon na go just the way i 'd hoped . olivia : um ... i still think this party 's a bad idea , but i ... do n't feel like fighting you on it right now . sonny : i 'm glad to hear it . olivia : we should probably try to get some rest . we got connie 's funeral first thing in the morning . so , um ... i was thinking that i would go back to my place , if you think you 're gon na be all right . sonny : i 'm fine . olivia : okay . sonny : i appreciate everything that you 've done with this , you know , as far as connie , and -- olivia : right . sonny : 'cause she got killed . olivia : i 'm gon na get going . do n't forget to take your meds . sonny : oh , i wo n't . ava : and i wanted to feel that pain ... because i caused what happened . going to that dark place was ... it 's my penance . i wonder which punishment is worse -- feeling too much of something ... or nothing at all .Summarize.[/INST]shawn tells sonny that julian jerome is in charge of the organization that is trying to muscle in on their territory . sonny says julian jerome is dead and concludes that vince lied to shawn . sonny yells at shawn for letting vince go . olivia says it might not be a coincidence that two people with the last name `` jerome `` recently moved into town . sonny says ava and kiki are n't related to those jeromes . he says ava is throwing a party for morgan and kiki . olivia does n't like the idea of a party or of sonny getting close to ava . on the docks , derek tells ava that sonny wo n't know what happened when they hijack his shipment because nothing connects derek wells with julian jerome . he says he just needs to make sure sonny is n't around when it happens . ava says she has already taken care of that because sonny will be at her party . he says he told her to stay away from sonny . ava says derek is n't her boss . she says she discovered that sonny is bipolar and planted the seed that he does n't need to take his meds . at sonny 's house , he throws away his bottle of lithium after promising olivia that he 'd take them .</s> | 11,539 |

[ phone rings ] james : i knew we needed the lobby phone . good evening . who am i speaking to ? mac : this is commissioner scorpio . we have you surrounded . james : yes , i heard you the first time -- when you yelled it through that dreadful bullhorn . you think that surrounding the building with your men will give you an advantage , but i do n't think so . uh -- you said your name was scorpio . are you a relative of robin 's ? mac : that 's right , she 's my niece . james : really ? well , i just shot her . she 's bleeding to death as we speak . [ scene_break ] patrick : robin 's not picking up . jason : if she 's at the charity event , she 's probably safe in the restaurant . the gunmen took over the lobby . now do you understand why i need answers from alcazar ?

[ scene_break ] maxie : it 's the vault . my boss at the hotel boutique warned me that this high- tech security system can interfere with the cell phone service . i 'm really surprised you guys did n't plan for that . so is this your first time ? three : are you deliberately trying to insult me ? maxie : i 'm just -- i 'm going to keep quiet . three : i 've pulled off a few heists . just nothing this high - profile . this was supposed to be a no - brainer . maxie : what went wrong ? three : you did . you kicked me , remember ? maxie : hey , you ca n't blame me for the vault closing . three : someone must 've pushed the silent alarm . maxie : are you worried ? three : about what ? maxie : well , how can you be so sure that your boss has n't bailed on you by now ? three : oh , i know him . three : he wo n't leave without this briefcase .

[ scene_break ] nikolas : i got it , i got it . sam : max found an unblocked door where they put alan , and i -- i know it leads outside . if you can create a diversion , i can slip out and i can get the cops in here . james : the police are obviously waiting for a hostage negotiator . it 's time for us to buy ourselves some more leverage . lulu : is that what i think it is ? mateo : they 're either going to try to blow the vault or the lobby . lulu : why would they do this ? they 're in here , too . carly : hey , fun one ? did it ever occur to you that if robin dies , everyone in here is going to freak ? that may put a crimp on your crowd control . there 's a first - aid kit behind the desk . why do n't you let me get it for you ? sonny : let sam get the kit . sweet sam ? james : you mean the little one with the bad judgment here ? all right . do n't try anything , darling . carly : what the hell are you doing ? i was trying to create a diversion . sonny : no more diversions . from now on , do not do anything i do n't tell you to do .

charlie : no way . mattie : we ca n't find our pool toys . lily : oh , they 're over here . come over here . me on . devon : [ chuckles ] cane : so , i 'm assuming the money - tossing incident had something to do with hilary ? huh ? hilary : i am just happy that i have you and security and love . neil : but you 're afraid it 's gon na be taken away from you . hilary : yeah , that 's ... part of it . neil : oh , baby . give me your hand . i promise you -- the two of us -- we 're here to stay . you 're my wife . i love you . and i plan to spend every single day keeping you happy for the rest of our lives . whether we go on our honeymoon today , six months from now , a year , it does n't matter . nothing 's gon na change that . you hear me ? hilary : i hope that 's true . neil : what 's that supposed to mean ? devon : so , there was this surprise party for hilary and neil at jabot . cane : were you invited ? devon : not exactly . cane : did you go ? devon : yeah . cane : why would you do this to yourself ? devon : because , cane , i was trying to do the right thing and congratulate my dad on his marriage . cane : [ sighs ] devon : that 's why . and that part went okay . cane : all right , what did n't go okay ? devon : hilary and i got stuck on the elevator together somehow . cane : and ? devon : and neil caught us . cane : what were you doing ? devon : we were n't doing anything . cane : [ exhales deeply ] devon : but we got close . cane : okay . does he suspect anything ? devon : no . uh , he trusts us both , but he 's not a fool . cane : no , he is not . devon : and i 'm afraid if i do n't get things under control , i 'm gon na end up breaking my dad 's heart . cane : okay . so , this explains why you got drunk and started throwing money off the roof . devon : yeah , and i 'm not proud of that . i 'm not proud of what i 've become . even when i was completely deaf , i was about something , you know ? cane : i know . you worked hard . you made your own way . devon : and now i 'm moping around , feeling like , you know , it 's -- i do n't know . i - i need to get it together and accept the fact that my father married the woman that i want , and that 's that . cane : you know it 's okay to be upset . devon : yeah , sure i do , but neil 's been upset before in the past and lonely , and now he 's finally as happy as he deserves to be . cane : so where does that leave you ? devon : with too much time on my hands , obviously . i need to find a new project . cane : have you thought about maybe , you know , getting back into music ? devon : yes , i have . i 'm also looking into some investment opportunities . i just -- anything to put distance between hilary and me . neil : hilary . have i done anything to make you doubt me ? hilary : no . not at all . neil : but you -- you do n't think we 're gon na have a happy life ? hilary : not because of you . because ... neil , you 're right . i am afraid . all of my little - girl dreams are coming true , and i am terrified that i 'm gon na lose them . neil : i understand . tell me about those dreams . hilary : well , um , i 'm living them . i was the perfect bride . neil : oh , yes , you were . hilary : and i married the perfect man . neil : yes , you have . pretty -- pretty close to perfect , i might say . hilary : and since my mom and i -- was little , i , um -- we always used to live in all these tiny , cramped apartments , and i wanted to live in the perfect little house . neil : perfect how ? hilary : big and sunny , and you can walk all the way around because there was nothing attached to it . neil : what else ? hilary : it had an upstairs ... and ... a backyard ... and , a - a swing ... and a lake that i could swim in . neil : hey . where 'd you go just now ? hilary : back to my life back then . neil : when your mom was drinking ? hilary : yeah . but you do n't . and -- well , at least not anymore . and all of this -- you know , all of me wanting everything right now , like the honeymoon ... neil , listen . i ... i do trust you . it 's just this little girl inside of me is ... just so scared that it 's never gon na come true . neil : [ inhales deeply ] [ exhales deeply ] it will happen ... just as soon as work allows . hilary : okay . thank you . uh , speaking of work , i need to check out a reception space for jack . neil : oh . hilary : so , i will see you at home . neil : yeah . hey . before you go ... i promise you you will see all those dreams come true . and you , my dear , are gon na be happy forever ... if i have anything to do with it . and , fortunately , i ... do . hilary : okay . billy : [ sighs ] jack : a new look ? billy : the mono - sock . jack : it 's a fashion statement or a cry for help ? billy : mm , a little from column `` a , `` a little from column `` b. `` i 'm a mess , jack . i need my big brother to straighten me out . jack : what 's her name ? billy : [ sighs ] why does this always have to be about a woman ? jack : because you have lipstick on your shirt , and i 'm pretty sure that 's not victoria 's shade . billy : [ sighs ] what is wrong with me ? i want to be with victoria . we already have a family together . that 's what i want . but then i go and do stupid things like desperate , mindless sex with kelly and ... jack : i assume last night was n't with kelly , since , uh ... billy : you two are together . right . that was indelicate . but last night -- it was just wrong . jack : what was wrong about it ? billy : everything . jack : billy , the situation has changed . your circumstances are different . billy : [ sighs ] jack : you 're separated now . victoria wants a divorce . she 's seeing another man . i know you do n't want to hear this ... billy : do n't say it , jack . jack : ... but she may never want you back again . billy : she will . what ? she will . jack : either way , billy , there 's nothing wrong with what you did last night with ... whoever it was . billy : sure as hell feels wrong . jack : i think it 's okay to get out and get on with your life when what you 're waiting for may never happen . billy : who are we talking about here , jack -- you or me ? chelsea : i do n't know what i want with billy . anita : uh , sex ? chelsea : [ sighs ] anita : [ chuckles ] chelsea : i mean , i have thought about what would happen if our friendship took this turn -- anita : i knew it . chelsea : no , but -- but i never thought that it would actually happen . anita : well , right . chelsea : mom , it 's billy , and it 's way too soon . i mean , i have n't even started to accept the fact that adam 's gone . anita : oh , sweetie . you 're a healthy young woman . chelsea : mom . anita : and i will bet that billy abbott is one of those guys that just kisses you everywhere . right ? chelsea : oh , my god . no details , please . anita : all right . all right . chelsea : la , la , la , la [ cell phone rings ] anita : he 's that good , huh ? chelsea : geez . oh . hey , kevin . what 's up ? uh , no , i have n't checked my e - mail yet . why ? okay . i 'll call you back . anita : what 's going on ? chelsea : uh , kevin 's been looking into ben rayburn -- you know , stitch . he found something strange . anita : why is he sending this stuff to you instead of to billy ? chelsea : well , billy decided he does n't want to dig up any dirt on stitch anymore . he felt that it was pushing victoria away . anita : oh . [ sighs ] chelsea : oh , my god . anita : what does it say ? is ben rayburn one of those doctors that mercy kills his patients ? chelsea : i have no idea who ben rayburn is . look . anita : an obituary ? chelsea : yeah , for a boy killed shortly after his high - school - graduation party . anita : where is chesterfield , missouri ? chelsea : it 's just outside st. louis , but look -- this kid went to the same school -- the same high school as stitch . anita : chesterfield high . chelsea : uh - huh . anita : uh , well , maybe there 's only one high school . chelsea : and he graduated the same year ? and they have the same name ? anita : benjamin rayburn . chelsea : i mean , kevin said that benjamin rayburn died , and , apparently , he was right , but look at this photo . anita : ben rayburn is not ben rayburn . ben rayburn is dead . how ? chelsea : i do n't know , mom . but stitch is definitely not who he says he is . jack : this is not about me . billy : yeah , the fact that you 've moved on with kelly despite how you still feel about phyllis -- that does n't even apply . jack : if there is a woman out there who is right for you who can ease your pain , i say go for it . billy : yes , but victoria -- jack : you are a free man , billy . you have been so focused on victoria and this baby and stitch . maybe it 's time to ease off . let victoria know there are other women in this world . billy : that would send victoria running . jack : if victoria is meant to come back to you , she will . now , clean up your collar , and do n't do anything stupid . billy : [ sighs ] jack : what are you doing here ? austin : i need to talk to you . jack : billy , can you give us a minute alone ? billy : who 's this ? jack : summer 's husband . billy : summer 's what ? summer : why ca n't you at least give austin a chance ? courtney : why ca n't you realize he 's a criminal ? summer : that 's not who he is . courtney : in the eyes of the law , that is exactly who he is . summer : that does not matter . courtney : it matters to me . summer : [ sighs ] courtney , look , you 're just -- you 're not understanding . courtney : [ scoffs ] you 're right . i 'm not . help me . help me understand , summer . summer : okay , austin was in a lot of pain when his mom was taken from him , so , at the time , he just wanted justice and peace of mind over his mom 's death . courtney : so , he abducts your aunt and shoots paul ? summer : yeah , it was stupid . okay ? and he admits that . but shooting paul was an accident . but he took responsibility . he even turned himself in , courtney . look , please -- i love him . courtney : yeah , you 've said that . summer : and you do n't believe me ? courtney : [ sighs ] that 's not what i 'm saying . i 'm just saying that you 're standing here right now , telling me that you love this guy . you post bail for him , you marry him . a few weeks ago , you did n't even know him . summer : okay , sometimes it happens fast . it just happens . courtney : yeah , and sometimes it happens too fast . summer : okay , the way that he feels about his mom is the same way that i feel about my mom . that sense of loss is what bonded us so quickly . courtney : okay , but that 's not a reason to go and marry somebody . summer : no , it 's not , but we had a connection . and just because we got married quickly does n't mean that it 's not real or that it ca n't last . courtney : i 'm just saying it sounds like you 're tying yourself down to a guy that you hardly know , and everything we know about him is pretty bad , summer . summer : courtney , he really is a good guy . courtney : who might go to jail . summer : [ sighs ] courtney : what happens to you then ? summer : please , courtney . okay , do not sound like jack right now . okay , i just need a friend . jack : i 'll explain later . billy : you 'd better . you married summer ? do not hurt that girl . you understand me ? austin : nice to meet you . jack : well , i hope you are here to tell me that you and summer have decided to get an annulment . austin : no . i 'm not . i 'm here to explain something to you -- something that might make you feel a whole lot better . courtney : i am trying to be a friend . part of that is being honest , right ? summer : yeah , i guess so . courtney : and honestly , i do n't give a damn about him . i probably never will , but i care about you . i do n't want you getting hurt , so i 'm gon na do everything i can to protect you . summer : i do n't need protection from austin . courtney : if he goes to jail , which , summer , i think he should , you 're gon na lose him . i do n't want to see you get hurt like that . summer : i 'm not gon na be hurt because he 's gon na come back to me , courtney . courtney : babe , we 're talking years . summer : it 's not gon na be that long . courtney : look , even if he gets out early , he 's not gon na be the same . i 've seen those places . i know what they do to people . summer , he may come back . you might be right , but he 'll be different . he 's not gon na be the same guy that you think you love . summer : [ sighs ] courtney : are you sure you want to be tied to that legally ? summer : i love him , and i am tied to him . and if my husband goes to prison , then i 'm gon na wait for him ... however long it takes . jack : i seriously doubt you have anything to say that 's gon na make me feel better about your marriage to summer . austin : look , i know what i did was ... [ scoffs ] i messed up . it was as stupid as you can get , but my lawyer 's trying to get me off -- or at least a suspended sentence . jack : you really think that 's gon na happen ? austin : the way it looks now ... no . it looks like i 'm gon na do hard time . jack : just the words every father wants to hear from his new son - in - law . austin : look , summer plans to stay with me if i go to prison . jack : i 'm well aware of that . austin : that 's not gon na happen . i want you to know , mr. abbott , that ... if i 'm incarcerated , i 'll divorce her . i 'll let her go . kelly : hey , billy . billy : hey . kelly : what 's the smile for ? billy : oh , i just got a message from victoria wishing me a happy birthday , and i guess i 'm smiling 'cause it was unexpected . kelly : well , that 's nice . happy birthday . billy : thanks . i was just discussing you ... with jack . kelly : i probably do n't want to hear what that was about . anyway , uh , i have work to do . billy : mm . just answer me something , kelly . why did n't you ever mention to me or anyone else that stitch is your brother ? chelsea : could be a coincidence -- i mean , two ben rayburns living in the same area . anita : graduating from the same school the same year ? chelsea : maybe they 're cousins ? anita : no . you are thinking what i 'm thinking . chelsea : ben rayburn the doctor ... anita : mm - hmm . chelsea : ... stole the identity of ben rayburn the dead guy . anita : it 's an old con . chelsea : yep . we 've used it more than once . anita : well , that was -- it used to be a lot easier in the old days before computers came along and ruined everything . chelsea : but why would stitch do this ? anita : well , he 's got something to hide . chelsea : [ exhales deeply ] well , i know billy said he did n't want to be part of this stuff anymore , but i 've got to tell him . anita : unh - unh - unh . are you sure about that ? cane : are you sure you 're not obsessing over hilary 'cause there 's no other woman in your life ? devon : no . hilary is the one . cane : well , she just walked in .

[ sighs ] look , what happened was , we 're both a little lonely and still grieving our losses . chelsea : okay , so first i 'm your chiropractor . now i 'm your therapist ? billy : no , i 'm trying to say that we 've gotten closer , and you 've been great . chelsea : `` great . `` oh , okay . wow . now my life is complete , billy . thanks . billy : how is that an insult ? getting closer to you has meant a lot to me -- and the way you helped me get the lowdown on stitch . chelsea : so , what was last night -- my -- my thank - you gift , my tip for a job well done ? billy : uh , i 'm just trying to say that it makes sense that -- that we would reach out to each other for comfort in a crazy and impulsive moment . chelsea : is that what you told kelly ? billy : [ sighs ] well , this is a similar situation . chelsea : it 's not similar at all , actually , because we 've had sex before . billy : well , since i was drugged the last time , does that count ? chelsea : considering i got pregnant and had johnny , um , yeah , i 'd say it counts . billy : [ sighs ] what -- what do you want me to say , chels ? chelsea : i want you to say that us sleeping together last night was n't just crazy or impulsive . i want you to admit that we 've both thought about it before . billy : last night came out of nowhere . chelsea : what about when you kissed me ? billy : that was months ago , and afterwards , you gave me a shot to the chops . chelsea : then in australia , i kissed you . billy : which we agreed to forget all about . chelsea : well , clearly we did n't , so do n't say that last night just came out of nowhere . billy : fine . it evolved from a kiss to a slap to a kiss to a denial to a roll around under the covers . satisfied ? [ sighs ] look -- look -- look , as enjoyable as this was ... you know i want to get back together with victoria . chelsea : i know . but when you ca n't get what you want ... billy : this has to be a one - time thing . chelsea : of course . billy : [ sighs ] i should go . chelsea : you should . [ door opens ] anita : hello ! chelsea : mom . anita : well , hello . chelsea : i - i was n't expecting you back so early . anita : apparently not . billy : see you , chels . glad i was able to help you ... fix your buzz . anita : `` buzz `` ? i 've heard it called a lot of things , but `` fixing your buzz `` ? chelsea : there 's this buzzing sound -- anita : i knew that there was something brewing between you and billy , you naughty , naughty girl . mommy 's a naughty , naughty girl . chelsea : we did not plan this , mom . it was ... anita : well , you know , when i said that i would babysit for you because you were gon na work last night , i -- hey , can i just have your job ? chelsea : you 're making too much of this , all right ? it just sort of happened . anita : well , make it happen again . i mean , for pete 's sakes , he 's an abbott . i mean , he 's a catch . come on . first a newman , then an abbott . i 'd say your mommy has it going on . chelsea : okay , billy is in love with his wife . this is never gon na happen again , all right ? anita : all right . but , um , do n't you want it to ? jack : so , what was your brother like as a kid ? kelly : uh ... jack : you know what ? you know , forget that . forget it . you do n't have to answer that . i do n't want to put you on the spot . kelly : no , it 's okay . you did n't . jack : if you do n't want to talk about this , we do n't have to talk about it . kelly : we can talk about ben . it 's fine . i just , um -- maybe not right now . i think i really have to get to work . jack : yeah . i have to get to jabot , too , if only to see what i can do to get summer out of this disastrous marriage . kelly : i 'm really sorry that i could n't be more of a help . jack : oh , no , you are a great help . just your being here is a help . kelly : i really do need to go to work . jack : no . but maybe a little bit later . kelly : oh . summer : i did not marry a bad guy . i married a great guy , and if you would take the time to get to know him , then you -- courtney : summer . i was in the apartment . i saw him shoot my boss . summer : it was an accident . austin : summer . courtney : and it was an accident that he kidnapped your aunt ? summer : you do n't even know what happened . you see 10 seconds of someone 's life , and you think that you know them ? courtney : yeah , i do , when they commit half a dozen felonies in those 10 seconds . summer : you 're being really judgmental right now . courtney : i 'm a cop . i have to make split - second judgments every day . summer : i do n't need a cop right now . i just need my friend . austin : okay , you know what ? i get it . why do n't you two just talk alone ? i have other things to deal with , anyway . summer : no , austin , please . austin : summer , it 's fine . okay ? i 'll see you later . summer : [ sighs ] can we just start over ? lily : are you seeing esmerelda again ? did she break your heart this time ? devon : no . i 'm -- i just had a bad day . lily : well , you 're not in some kind of trouble , are you ? devon : not the kind of trouble you 're imagining . i 'm fine . cane : hey , it 's our future olympians . you guys did some awesome splashing . lily : hey , you ready to dry off ? charlie : no way . mattie : we ca n't find our pool toys . lily : oh , they 're over here . come over here . me on . devon : [ chuckles ] cane : so , i 'm assuming the money - tossing incident had something to do with hilary ? huh ? hilary : i am just happy that i have you and security and love . neil : but you 're afraid it 's gon na be taken away from you . hilary : yeah , that 's ... part of it . neil : oh , baby . give me your hand . i promise you -- the two of us -- we 're here to stay . you 're my wife . i love you . and i plan to spend every single day keeping you happy for the rest of our lives . whether we go on our honeymoon today , six months from now , a year , it does n't matter . nothing 's gon na change that . you hear me ? hilary : i hope that 's true . neil : what 's that supposed to mean ? devon : so , there was this surprise party for hilary and neil at jabot . cane : were you invited ? devon : not exactly . cane : did you go ? devon : yeah . cane : why would you do this to yourself ? devon : because , cane , i was trying to do the right thing and congratulate my dad on his marriage . cane : [ sighs ] devon : that 's why . and that part went okay . cane : all right , what did n't go okay ? devon : hilary and i got stuck on the elevator together somehow . cane : and ? devon : and neil caught us . cane : what were you doing ? devon : we were n't doing anything . cane : [ exhales deeply ] devon : but we got close . cane : okay . does he suspect anything ? devon : no . uh , he trusts us both , but he 's not a fool . cane : no , he is not . devon : and i 'm afraid if i do n't get things under control , i 'm gon na end up breaking my dad 's heart . cane : okay . so , this explains why you got drunk and started throwing money off the roof . devon : yeah , and i 'm not proud of that . i 'm not proud of what i 've become . even when i was completely deaf , i was about something , you know ? cane : i know . you worked hard . you made your own way . devon : and now i 'm moping around , feeling like , you know , it 's -- i do n't know . i - i need to get it together and accept the fact that my father married the woman that i want , and that 's that . cane : you know it 's okay to be upset . devon : yeah , sure i do , but neil 's been upset before in the past and lonely , and now he 's finally as happy as he deserves to be . cane : so where does that leave you ? devon : with too much time on my hands , obviously . i need to find a new project . cane : have you thought about maybe , you know , getting back into music ? devon : yes , i have . i 'm also looking into some investment opportunities . i just -- anything to put distance between hilary and me . neil : hilary . have i done anything to make you doubt me ? hilary : no . not at all . neil : but you -- you do n't think we 're gon na have a happy life ? hilary : not because of you . because ... neil , you 're right . i am afraid . all of my little - girl dreams are coming true , and i am terrified that i 'm gon na lose them . neil : i understand . tell me about those dreams . hilary : well , um , i 'm living them . i was the perfect bride . neil : oh , yes , you were . hilary : and i married the perfect man . neil : yes , you have . pretty -- pretty close to perfect , i might say . hilary : and since my mom and i -- was little , i , um -- we always used to live in all these tiny , cramped apartments , and i wanted to live in the perfect little house . neil : perfect how ? hilary : big and sunny , and you can walk all the way around because there was nothing attached to it . neil : what else ? hilary : it had an upstairs ... and ... a backyard ... and , a - a swing ... and a lake that i could swim in . neil : hey . where 'd you go just now ? hilary : back to my life back then . neil : when your mom was drinking ? hilary : yeah . but you do n't . and -- well , at least not anymore . and all of this -- you know , all of me wanting everything right now , like the honeymoon ... neil , listen . i ... i do trust you . it 's just this little girl inside of me is ... just so scared that it 's never gon na come true . neil : [ inhales deeply ] [ exhales deeply ] it will happen ... just as soon as work allows . hilary : okay . thank you . uh , speaking of work , i need to check out a reception space for jack . neil : oh . hilary : so , i will see you at home . neil : yeah . hey . before you go ... i promise you you will see all those dreams come true . and you , my dear , are gon na be happy forever ... if i have anything to do with it . and , fortunately , i ... do . hilary : okay . billy : [ sighs ] jack : a new look ? billy : the mono - sock . jack : it 's a fashion statement or a cry for help ? billy : mm , a little from column `` a , `` a little from column `` b. `` i 'm a mess , jack . i need my big brother to straighten me out . jack : what 's her name ? billy : [ sighs ] why does this always have to be about a woman ? jack : because you have lipstick on your shirt , and i 'm pretty sure that 's not victoria 's shade . billy : [ sighs ] what is wrong with me ? i want to be with victoria . we already have a family together . that 's what i want . but then i go and do stupid things like desperate , mindless sex with kelly and ... jack : i assume last night was n't with kelly , since , uh ... billy : you two are together . right . that was indelicate . but last night -- it was just wrong . jack : what was wrong about it ? billy : everything . jack : billy , the situation has changed . your circumstances are different . billy : [ sighs ] jack : you 're separated now . victoria wants a divorce . she 's seeing another man . i know you do n't want to hear this ... billy : do n't say it , jack . jack : ... but she may never want you back again . billy : she will . what ? she will . jack : either way , billy , there 's nothing wrong with what you did last night with ... whoever it was . billy : sure as hell feels wrong . jack : i think it 's okay to get out and get on with your life when what you 're waiting for may never happen . billy : who are we talking about here , jack -- you or me ? chelsea : i do n't know what i want with billy . anita : uh , sex ? chelsea : [ sighs ] anita : [ chuckles ] chelsea : i mean , i have thought about what would happen if our friendship took this turn -- anita : i knew it . chelsea : no , but -- but i never thought that it would actually happen . anita : well , right . chelsea : mom , it 's billy , and it 's way too soon . i mean , i have n't even started to accept the fact that adam 's gone . anita : oh , sweetie . you 're a healthy young woman . chelsea : mom . anita : and i will bet that billy abbott is one of those guys that just kisses you everywhere . right ? chelsea : oh , my god . no details , please . anita : all right . all right . chelsea : la , la , la , la [ cell phone rings ] anita : he 's that good , huh ? chelsea : geez . oh . hey , kevin . what 's up ? uh , no , i have n't checked my e - mail yet . why ? okay . i 'll call you back . anita : what 's going on ? chelsea : uh , kevin 's been looking into ben rayburn -- you know , stitch . he found something strange . anita : why is he sending this stuff to you instead of to billy ? chelsea : well , billy decided he does n't want to dig up any dirt on stitch anymore . he felt that it was pushing victoria away . anita : oh . [ sighs ] chelsea : oh , my god . anita : what does it say ? is ben rayburn one of those doctors that mercy kills his patients ? chelsea : i have no idea who ben rayburn is . look . anita : an obituary ? chelsea : yeah , for a boy killed shortly after his high - school - graduation party . anita : where is chesterfield , missouri ? chelsea : it 's just outside st. louis , but look -- this kid went to the same school -- the same high school as stitch . anita : chesterfield high . chelsea : uh - huh . anita : uh , well , maybe there 's only one high school . chelsea : and he graduated the same year ? and they have the same name ? anita : benjamin rayburn . chelsea : i mean , kevin said that benjamin rayburn died , and , apparently , he was right , but look at this photo . anita : ben rayburn is not ben rayburn . ben rayburn is dead . how ? chelsea : i do n't know , mom . but stitch is definitely not who he says he is . jack : this is not about me . billy : yeah , the fact that you 've moved on with kelly despite how you still feel about phyllis -- that does n't even apply . jack : if there is a woman out there who is right for you who can ease your pain , i say go for it . billy : yes , but victoria -- jack : you are a free man , billy . you have been so focused on victoria and this baby and stitch . maybe it 's time to ease off . let victoria know there are other women in this world . billy : that would send victoria running . jack : if victoria is meant to come back to you , she will . now , clean up your collar , and do n't do anything stupid . billy : [ sighs ] jack : what are you doing here ? austin : i need to talk to you . jack : billy , can you give us a minute alone ? billy : who 's this ? jack : summer 's husband . billy : summer 's what ? summer : why ca n't you at least give austin a chance ? courtney : why ca n't you realize he 's a criminal ? summer : that 's not who he is . courtney : in the eyes of the law , that is exactly who he is . summer : that does not matter . courtney : it matters to me . summer : [ sighs ] courtney , look , you 're just -- you 're not understanding . courtney : [ scoffs ] you 're right . i 'm not . help me . help me understand , summer . summer : okay , austin was in a lot of pain when his mom was taken from him , so , at the time , he just wanted justice and peace of mind over his mom 's death . courtney : so , he abducts your aunt and shoots paul ? summer : yeah , it was stupid . okay ? and he admits that . but shooting paul was an accident . but he took responsibility . he even turned himself in , courtney . look , please -- i love him . courtney : yeah , you 've said that . summer : and you do n't believe me ? courtney : [ sighs ] that 's not what i 'm saying . i 'm just saying that you 're standing here right now , telling me that you love this guy . you post bail for him , you marry him . a few weeks ago , you did n't even know him . summer : okay , sometimes it happens fast . it just happens . courtney : yeah , and sometimes it happens too fast . summer : okay , the way that he feels about his mom is the same way that i feel about my mom . that sense of loss is what bonded us so quickly . courtney : okay , but that 's not a reason to go and marry somebody . summer : no , it 's not , but we had a connection . and just because we got married quickly does n't mean that it 's not real or that it ca n't last . courtney : i 'm just saying it sounds like you 're tying yourself down to a guy that you hardly know , and everything we know about him is pretty bad , summer . summer : courtney , he really is a good guy . courtney : who might go to jail . summer : [ sighs ] courtney : what happens to you then ? summer : please , courtney . okay , do not sound like jack right now . okay , i just need a friend . jack : i 'll explain later . billy : you 'd better . you married summer ? do not hurt that girl . you understand me ? austin : nice to meet you . jack : well , i hope you are here to tell me that you and summer have decided to get an annulment . austin : no . i 'm not . i 'm here to explain something to you -- something that might make you feel a whole lot better . courtney : i am trying to be a friend . part of that is being honest , right ? summer : yeah , i guess so . courtney : and honestly , i do n't give a damn about him . i probably never will , but i care about you . i do n't want you getting hurt , so i 'm gon na do everything i can to protect you . summer : i do n't need protection from austin . courtney : if he goes to jail , which , summer , i think he should , you 're gon na lose him . i do n't want to see you get hurt like that . summer : i 'm not gon na be hurt because he 's gon na come back to me , courtney . courtney : babe , we 're talking years . summer : it 's not gon na be that long . courtney : look , even if he gets out early , he 's not gon na be the same . i 've seen those places . i know what they do to people . summer , he may come back . you might be right , but he 'll be different . he 's not gon na be the same guy that you think you love . summer : [ sighs ] courtney : are you sure you want to be tied to that legally ? summer : i love him , and i am tied to him . and if my husband goes to prison , then i 'm gon na wait for him ... however long it takes . jack : i seriously doubt you have anything to say that 's gon na make me feel better about your marriage to summer . austin : look , i know what i did was ... [ scoffs ] i messed up . it was as stupid as you can get , but my lawyer 's trying to get me off -- or at least a suspended sentence . jack : you really think that 's gon na happen ? austin : the way it looks now ... no . it looks like i 'm gon na do hard time . jack : just the words every father wants to hear from his new son - in - law . austin : look , summer plans to stay with me if i go to prison . jack : i 'm well aware of that . austin : that 's not gon na happen . i want you to know , mr. abbott , that ... if i 'm incarcerated , i 'll divorce her . i 'll let her go . kelly : hey , billy . billy : hey . kelly : what 's the smile for ? billy : oh , i just got a message from victoria wishing me a happy birthday , and i guess i 'm smiling 'cause it was unexpected . kelly : well , that 's nice . happy birthday . billy : thanks . i was just discussing you ... with jack . kelly : i probably do n't want to hear what that was about . anyway , uh , i have work to do . billy : mm . just answer me something , kelly . why did n't you ever mention to me or anyone else that stitch is your brother ? chelsea : could be a coincidence -- i mean , two ben rayburns living in the same area . anita : graduating from the same school the same year ? chelsea : maybe they 're cousins ? anita : no . you are thinking what i 'm thinking . chelsea : ben rayburn the doctor ... anita : mm - hmm . chelsea : ... stole the identity of ben rayburn the dead guy . anita : it 's an old con . chelsea : yep . we 've used it more than once . anita : well , that was -- it used to be a lot easier in the old days before computers came along and ruined everything . chelsea : but why would stitch do this ? anita : well , he 's got something to hide . chelsea : [ exhales deeply ] well , i know billy said he did n't want to be part of this stuff anymore , but i 've got to tell him . anita : unh - unh - unh . are you sure about that ? cane : are you sure you 're not obsessing over hilary 'cause there 's no other woman in your life ? devon : no . hilary is the one . cane : well , she just walked in .

traci : well , come with me . our family memoir . it 's finished . jack : wow . traci : i was wondering if you would read it before we let anyone else see it , and maybe you could tell me what you think . um , tell me what you think i ought to tweak or add . jack : i would be honored . in fact , i 'm gon na dive into it right now . traci : [ laughing ] oh ! fantastic , because billy and i are gon na go ashley at the airport , and , when i get back , i want your honest opinion . jack : you shall have it . traci : good . now , i know it 's a little daunting , it 's -- well ... but there are no surprises . jack : i know with absolutely certainty ... i will treasure every sentence . traci : okay . jack : preface . the book you 're about to read was a labor of love from start to finish . my brother jack and i worked tirelessly together to put our shared history down in words ... to capture our triumphs and our failures , our pain and our joy , and the part each one of us played in the creation of our family tapestry over three generations . we are the abbotts ... and this is our story . additional sponsorship jack : when his marriage to dina ended , john vowed to be the best father possible ... to provide all the love and stability that jack , ashley , and i needed . in turn , he became our family 's touchstone -- the person we all wanted to make proud . the one whose approval we sought even when we were n't sure we deserved it . john : look at you , you 're -- you looked relaxed , you 're at ease ... this trip has done you a world of good . jack : oh , it did , dad . it really did . john : well , where have you been , and what have you done ? jack : oh , i 've been every place , i 've done every thing . now ... i 'm ready to get back , put my nose to the ol ' grindstone . john : now , jack , i hope that you 've come back with a different outlook . jack : do n't i seem different ? john : yes , i just hope it 's real because i do not want to see you eaten alive by this -- this organization that newman has brought to jabot . jack : so , how is the great man ? john : please , jack . everything around here has been going well . jack : dad , dad , i did n't come back just to create problems . john : well , i certainly hope not . jack : dad , i would n't have come back if i did n't have my head together . and a few ideas about the future . john : i 'm not sure what that means . jack : it means you do n't have to worry about me . john : [ laughs ] jack , the day that i do n't have to worry about you -- well , now , that 's the day they can put me six feet under . jack : dad , i 'm serious . john : so am i . but , you know , somehow , i suspect that there 's something going in that little mind of yours you do n't wish to reveal . while our mother chose to leave genoa city to create a new life for herself , she did return more than once over the years , hoping she and john might find a way to mend the broken pieces of their relationship . dina : i 'd like to think that , jack , but traci 's been anything but warm and friendly to me since i got back here . jack : or maybe you 're just being a little bit paranoid . dina : maybe , but i still think she 's my number - one stumbling block . jack : and you came to me to see if i could help you turn her around . dina : you are a bright boy , jack . jack : okay , i 'll see what i can do . dina : i knew i could count on you . jack : now , look , even if i can turn her around , it does n't mean she 's going to influence dad 's decision . dina : oh , i hope you 're right , jack . you have no idea how badly i want to be mrs . john abbott again . but , more than that , i want to be a mother again . i know that 's what your father would love . but it was n't meant to be . there were too many issues to resolve , too many complicating factors ... too many people who were against the reunion . jill : jack , got a minute ? jack : for you ? no . jack : now , now , now . do n't be a sore loser . jack : what the hell are you talking about ? jill : i 'm talking about your father . jack : and ... ? jill : and i 'm moving my things into his house today . we 're spending the holidays together . jack : you 've got to be kidding me . jill : on the contrary , i 'm very serious . well , the both of us were gon na be alone for the holidays , and that did n't make much sense . not when two people know each other as well as your father and i do . jack : i can not believe my father would go along with a scheme as transparent as this . jill : who said anything about a scheme , jack ? jack : i know you , jill ! i know how you operate . jill : look , as much as i would love to stay and gloat , i do have packing to do . oh , jack , by the way ... if it had n't been for our conversation earlier , i never would have had the nerve to suggest moving in with your father . you really motivated me . thanks , jack . or should i say ... son . regardless of who our father was involved with over the years , one thing never changed -- his devotion to his children . he was the constant guiding force in our lives until his dying day . jack : the night mom left us , you made me promise i would always look out for my sisters . you said , `` jackie boy ... `` this family is the most important thing in the world to me . `` it 's my turn now . i 'm gon na look out for you . and , dad , this family ... is the most important thing in the world to me . and my love for you , dad ... is unwavering ... and undying . dina : you know , son , i -- i 'm aware that my memory will come and go , mostly go . and when it does , jack ... when i become terribly difficult for you to handle ... i just want you to know that i love you now ... [ voice breaking ] and always . always . jack : and i love you . dina : oh ! my boy ... oh , jackie ... jack : you will always be a part of us . a part of me . one could make the case that jabot cosmetics was john abbott 's firstborn . he poured his heart and soul into the family business . despite a tumultuous journey , the company stands strong today -- a testament to our father 's vision and enduring spirit . victor : now , what i really want to tell you is that if you intend to perform over here , you and the loyal few , you 're gon na have to be part of a team , part of a unit . if that does n't meet with your expectations , you and i better talk because , otherwise , there 's gon na be nothing but conflicts and problems . jack : listen , newman -- victor : and -- wait a minute -- that i will not tolerate . jack : if you think i came back here to tear this thing apart ... take it off your mind , okay ? i did not come here to do further damage to a company my father worked his entire life to put together . i am here . i am here to stay . and i guess that means , for the immediate future , anyway , you and i are gon na have to find a way to work together . victor : well , jack ... it 'll more in your hands than in mine . jack : i 'll remember you said that . well , this has been a lovely chat . i got to get back to work . jack : i 'm not gon na let victor newman or anyone else get in the way of jabot 's success . jill : you are so out of control when it comes to victor ! jack : you want to see me out of control , you keep pressing this idea of killing the glow line . jill : oh , is intimidation the only way you can make a point these days ? jack : i do n't like my ideas being sabotaged . jill : oh , excuse me , the rest of us are not allowed to disagree with you . [ glass clinking ] ashley : round 's over ! john : now , listen , you two , we are going to have a constructive discussion , or ashley and i will make the decision ourselves . jill : please tell me you 're not entertaining the idea of raising our ad budget . it is insane , john ! jack : it is equally insane to think we can compete with the newmans without the glow line . a line , by the way , that you voted for ! jill : that was against my better judgment ! besides , i do n't believe in throwing good money after bad , especially after what i 've told you about their plan to cut their prices ! john , we should take our lumps and go home . john : thank you , jill . now , you made your position very clear . jack : it 's a very weak position . we need to move decisively now . john : jack , you 've also made your position very clear . now , if you two do n't mind , i would like to hear from ashley . ashley : i feel ... that we should in no way drop the glow line . jack : there , i rest my case . ashley : however ... i also feel that we should not increase the ad budget . we 're not gon na do anything crazy , jack . you hear me ? nothing crazy . each of us cares deeply about jabot 's success . one family member after another has seen his or her name emblazoned on the c.e.o . office door , but , for some of us , it 's harder to separate our place in the company from our identity as an abbott , and that desire to hold onto control has sometimes come at a steep price . ashley : what is it ? what , you 're evicting me from my own home ? jack : it 's an amendment i had added some time ago to jabot 's corporate bylaws , the rules that govern our little company . it 's a small change but an important one . i had it highlighted there . it 's really only one clause . `` only a blood abbott can hold the title of c.e.o . of jabot . `` ashley : you ca n't do that . jack : it is 100 % legitimate . unlike you , i 'm sorry to remind you . ashley : you son of a bitch ! jack : you 're not taking my job from me , ashley . not ever . after much turmoil , jack has resumed his place at the top , having merged jabot with ashley 's company and working with kyle at his side . something tells me , dad would approve . one can not mention the abbotts without acknowledging the newmans . our families are intertwined in marriages , by children . there are long - standing friendships and , most notoriously , the unparalleled rivalry between jack and victor newman , which has spanned decades . victor : this sheet of paper , it 's the key to your entire future , jack . jack : you 're trading me the company ... for my wife . victor : you 're talking to me , jack abbott . i know that this is what you 've been hoping and praying for since the day that you married nikki . so stop your moral indignation , all right ? it 's too obvious . that is my final proposition , take it or leave . jack : you really surprised me , newman . i figured you 'd offer me a percentage , you know , 5 % , 10 % , possibly 20 % , but the whole company . victor : i can offer you 5 % , 10 % , 20 % , 80 % . i am negotiating with the lives of nikki or my children . this is my final offer . jabot in exchange ... for nikki and the children . i want you to get your things , and i want you to get out ! [ ominous music plays ] jack : victor . victor : [ gasping ] jack : victor ! victor : [ muttering ] jack : god , what you have done to my life . what you have done to my life . i 'm not just talking about a baby now . i 'm talking about my wife . i 'm talking about my family , my sister , my father . i 'm talking jabot . i 'm talking everything you 've done to me and my family . victor : jack , i 'm telling you it was an accident ! the last thing i wanted to happen is for me to be responsible for the loss of your child , you understand that ? jack : all i know is my son is dead ! he 's dead ! because of you . jack : you like this chair ... you want this chair ? jack : have a seat . on me . [ wind blowing ] lately , there are signs these two might be ready to put down their swords . jack : i do n't know why i 'm opening up to you . victor : perhaps it 's time to lay off the scotch . jack : i thought you 'd want to know my deepest , darkest secrets . is n't that you specialty , capitalizing on your enemy 's weaknesses ? victor : [ laughing ] oh ! no , i only do that when i feel threatened , jack . jack : gee , i 'm glad we had this talk . it makes me feel so much better . victor : who would imagine that you and i would ever have this kind of a discussion , huh ? so things are good for you ? jack : yeah , on the surface , i have everything a man could want . whether this is a paradigm shift , or a moment of calm before yet another storm , only time will tell . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . take a look at the many branches of our family tree , and you 'll see a long string of marriages and broken relationships . but our hearts lead us where they may , and when we fall , we fall hard -- even if it was the last thing we expected . nikki : we did talk about getting married , did n't we ? jack : and it slipped your mind , did it ? nikki : things have been so hectic lately . jack : nikki , i get the feeling you 're giving the runaround again . nikki : jack -- jack : i love you , damn it , and i want you to be my wife . i do n't know how many times i 've told you that in the last few weeks , but i 've never meant it more than i do right now . with my dad okay , i could n't be a happier man , except , possibly , if you 'd agree to spend the rest of your life with me . now , if that 's not what you want , you have to tell me . nikki : it is what i want . jack : i ca n't keep coming over here and laying my heart on the line like this -- nikki : jack , yes . i 'm saying yes . jack : yes ? nikki : yes . jack : you mean that ? jack : [ laughs ] yes . i mean it . jack : oh ! nikki : [ giggles ] jack : something happened to me today that brought it all back to the surface . nikki : what happened ? tell me . jack : this woman visited me in the office . nikki : what woman ? jack : name was suzanne cook . nikki : who -- who is that ? a business associate ? jack : i 'd never met her before . she brought a baby with her , nik . this beautiful little boy , a couple of months old . nikki : well , what did she want ? jack : she wanted me to see the baby . nikki : i do n't understand . jack : i did n't , either , at first . it turns out , this little boy was born with a severe heart defect . doctors only gave him a month , maybe two . that is , until a donor came along . and this baby was born prematurely , whose parents had agreed to donate any usable organs that another child might live . and he , uh ... had a heart transplant . nikki : oh , my god . so this ... this baby , this woman 's baby ... jack : he 's alive today because of our son . that little boy , who -- who did n't make it . nikki : oh , jack ... jack : he 's a terrific kid . big , beautiful blue eyes , this perfect little face ... bright , alert . his name was john . nikki : john ? jack : his mother let me hold him in my arms . nikki : oh ... jack : it was amazing . it was like i was holding my own son . if he had lived . this beautiful , precious little baby ... it was somehow part of me . part of us . sometimes , we 're drawn to the same person over and over , because the connection we feel is too deep not to try again . phyllis : well , i was thinking , you know , since we 've gotten over our rough patch and we 're friends again , how about going for a drink ? jack : gee , phyllis , i hate to rain on your parade . we 're not friends again . phyllis : we 're not ? jack : we 're working together . you are contracting your services to jabot . phyllis : yeah , i know that . jack : and that 's what it is . phyllis : well , it could be more . jack : i do n't think so . business and pleasure -- phyllis : so you admit , there 's pleasure . jack : i will admit , it could be a lot of trouble . phyllis : not if we 're careful . jack : that 's exactly what i 'm being right now , very careful . phyllis : oh , come on , jack . how long are you gon na keep up with that hard- nosed attitude ? jack : i think we can relate with each other cordially , but i think we need to limit our relations to professional ones . phyllis : wow . jack abbott , you have changed . you used to be so much fun . [ sighs ] all right . have it your way . you do n't know what you 're missing . bye . jack : [ sighs ] i do know what i 'm missing , phyllis . boy , do i . phyllis : listen , i realize you 're worried . i understand that . but do n't let your imagination go crazy . we should n't stop trying to have a baby because of some vague concern of yours . jack : this is a hell of a lot more than a vague concern . phyllis : i learned my lesson . jack : no , obviously , you haven't . phyllis : i will not be stupid again , jack . jack : what if there are complications ? phyllis : i 'll stop the therapy . jack : come here , sit down . listen to me . listen to me . you have already admitted you were n't conscious for most of what happened , i was . i was there for every terrifying minute of it . i almost lost you ! to go through something like that again , i -- phyllis : you wo n't have to . jack : you do n't know that ! you heard the doctor , there are no guarantees . phyllis : the doctor said he would keep his eye on me . jack : what , 24 hours a day ? what if you were n't in his office when you had your last attack ? what if you were out on your own , in your car somewhere ? there would be a different ending to this story . phyllis : oh , jack , come on , please ! life is full of `` what ifs . `` i mean -- jack : you be blasé about this all you want . i know what i heard the doctor say . if one more minute had passed ... there could be have irreparable damage to your organs . that 's it , kaput . you 'd have been gone , phyllis . phyllis : what are telling me ? what are you saying to me ? jack : i ca n't be part of this . phyllis : i can not believe this . so you just want to throw in the towel because of one setback ? jack : this is not a small setback . and i have you now . i can hold you , i can kiss you , i can spend the rest of my life with you -- jack : no , jack , jack , jack , something is missing ! [ sighs ] we do n't have a baby . we wo n't have a baby ! jack : we have each other . we have each other . that 's enough . that 's enough for me . jack : nicholas sends his greetings . phyllis : i 'm sorry . jack : i expected so much more . phyllis : if i could take this all back -- jack : no , i mean , i thought you could do better than `` i 'm sorry . `` something more original , maybe . phyllis : oh , god , jack . jack : you did n't have anything planned ? a speech , maybe ? i mean , you had months to prepare . phyllis : everything i thought about saying sounds meaningless right now . jack : oh , come on , humor me . now that i know the role i play , maybe i can understand it better . phyllis : the role ... ? jack : the fool , the idiot , the trusting one ... phyllis : no , jack -- jack : and nicholas was the guy , the other guy . come on , you 've had a lot of time with this . what were you going to tell the fool when he finally found out ? phyllis : listen , listen . you are n't a fool , you never were a fool . jack : oh , no , i think i was . i think i played the part pretty damn well . you called , i came running . you cried , i mopped up the tears . you needed a man 's arms around you , and the other guy 's arms were n't available , so the fool stepped up , and you got his . phyllis : if anybody was a fool , it was me . i was a fool . anybody who sleeps with a married man is an idiot . i know you hate me , and i understand that , but , see , we could get past this stuff . people do this . and that -- that ... thing with nicholas , it -=- it just -- it just ... happened , jack . jack : that `` thing . `` that thing with nicholas did n't just happen . see , first , you have to take off your clothes ... phyllis : listen , i never meant to hurt you . jack : you know what , you 're absolutely right . anything you say right now would be meaningless . phyllis : listen , i do n't even know if i 'm the right person to help you through this . but i 'm here . and i 'm staying . unless you want ashley or -- or traci ... jack : no , no , no , no , i -- i do n't want anybody else . look , i -- i know i keep saying this over and over again ... i could n't do this without you , red . jack : as for your question , i 'm doing fine . i 've just been mesmerized by traci 's memoir . traci : and you have n't yet got to my very favorite part , which is the part that speaks to the ties that bind us together forever . let 's see . oh , here it is . jack : okay . traci : there . try that . jack : whether young kids at home , mature adults living on their own , or those who have moved on from this life , our children have blessed us in ways we could n't begin to fathom when they were born . jack : those were your grandfather 's . he gave them to me a long time ago , and it 's time i pass them on to you . he was the best of the abbotts . we all are trying to live up to his legacy , all trying to live to his example . sometimes , we mess that up . but we never stop trying . it is our hope that this next generation of abbotts will understand that there is no greater gift than the bond that they share . whatever obstacles might come their way , whatever issues might tear them apart , there is always a way back to each other -- always -- to a home where they will be accepted and supported . jack : everything we 've done to each other for the last year , it 's wrong . it 's completely wrong . you ca n't wish a brother away . and ... abandoning and hatred and ... barring you , none of it makes any sense . you 're my brother . billy : [ coughs ] jack : you will always be my brother . and i would n't have it any other way . traci , you were so young when mother left us . you ever think about that time ? traci : [ chuckles ] sometimes . but , slowly , there were more days in my life without mother than there were days with her . and , besides , nobody ever talks about a mother who leaves . i mean , this was this unspoken horrible thing that we pretended never happened . and , jack ... it was a different time then . it was a time when nobody thought it was even a little bit off ... that a father call one of his daughters ... `` my beauty . `` jack : i never knew you felt that way . traci : oh , my god , jack ! jack : you know that dad loved you every bit as much as he loved ashley . traci : mm . yes , yes , of course . [ sighs ] i know . it 's just one of those things that you ... carry with you . jack : yes , that abbott clause ... was written to keep phyllis from making a claim on the company , but the darker truth is ... i did n't want to have to compete against you . there was a part of me , a part of me i 'm -- i 'm not at all proud of , that could n't accept the possibility that -- you would outshine me , be a better chief executive than i was . so i secured my position by making sure you could n't compete . that is the truth . and , for that , i am deeply , genuinely sorry . billy : i got to say , that took a hell of a lot of courage to admit . ashley : something our big brother has an abundance of . jack : not always . traci : but always when it counts . here . try that . jack : thus , our story will live on ... not only in these pages , but ... but in our traditions , in our memories , in our hearts . traci : [ laughs ] jack : wow . wow . billy : well , that 's a hell of an accomplishment . ashley : everything was just so exquisite , every single word . traci : oh , thank you so much . you guys are making me cry . jack : well , why should you be any different than the rest of us ? [ laughter ] ashley : happy tears . billy : yeah , no , i just got a little something in my eye , i 'm fine . ashley : me , too . jack : hey . i think we need to celebrate . ashley : yes ! we do . billy : yes . traci : right this very minute ? ashley : yes ! billy : yes , we should . jack : uh , first , though , there 's something i have to do . jack : listen , first , i want to recognize traci for the extraordinary accomplishment that this book is . billy : yes , trace . traci : aww . [ laughter ] jack : uh , working as her researcher was a truly humbling experience , to say the least . ashley : oh , you humble , huh ? jack : yes , believe it or not . [ laughter ] abby : in this one highly specialized instance . kyle : good to know it 's possible . billy : yeah , just do n't get used to it . traci : oh , now , now , you guys ... jack : yeah , okay ... listen , i always knew that writing a book was a major undertaking . i never had any idea how major until i saw the dedication and creativity and sheer number of hours that traci put in to writing this book . [ applause ] traci : thank you , everyone . and a round of applause for the world 's greatest co - writer . billy : yeah ! [ cheering ] jack : listen , seriously , i -- i want to commemorate this moment . writing this book was my idea . you did all the work , but -- [ laughter ] i thought it would be a great thing for future generations , but i personally ...

[ voice breaking ] and always . always . jack : and i love you . dina : oh ! my boy ... oh , jackie ... jack : you will always be a part of us . a part of me . one could make the case that jabot cosmetics was john abbott 's firstborn . he poured his heart and soul into the family business . despite a tumultuous journey , the company stands strong today -- a testament to our father 's vision and enduring spirit . victor : now , what i really want to tell you is that if you intend to perform over here , you and the loyal few , you 're gon na have to be part of a team , part of a unit . if that does n't meet with your expectations , you and i better talk because , otherwise , there 's gon na be nothing but conflicts and problems . jack : listen , newman -- victor : and -- wait a minute -- that i will not tolerate . jack : if you think i came back here to tear this thing apart ... take it off your mind , okay ? i did not come here to do further damage to a company my father worked his entire life to put together . i am here . i am here to stay . and i guess that means , for the immediate future , anyway , you and i are gon na have to find a way to work together . victor : well , jack ... it 'll more in your hands than in mine . jack : i 'll remember you said that . well , this has been a lovely chat . i got to get back to work . jack : i 'm not gon na let victor newman or anyone else get in the way of jabot 's success . jill : you are so out of control when it comes to victor ! jack : you want to see me out of control , you keep pressing this idea of killing the glow line . jill : oh , is intimidation the only way you can make a point these days ? jack : i do n't like my ideas being sabotaged . jill : oh , excuse me , the rest of us are not allowed to disagree with you . [ glass clinking ] ashley : round 's over ! john : now , listen , you two , we are going to have a constructive discussion , or ashley and i will make the decision ourselves . jill : please tell me you 're not entertaining the idea of raising our ad budget . it is insane , john ! jack : it is equally insane to think we can compete with the newmans without the glow line . a line , by the way , that you voted for ! jill : that was against my better judgment ! besides , i do n't believe in throwing good money after bad , especially after what i 've told you about their plan to cut their prices ! john , we should take our lumps and go home . john : thank you , jill . now , you made your position very clear . jack : it 's a very weak position . we need to move decisively now . john : jack , you 've also made your position very clear . now , if you two do n't mind , i would like to hear from ashley . ashley : i feel ... that we should in no way drop the glow line . jack : there , i rest my case . ashley : however ... i also feel that we should not increase the ad budget . we 're not gon na do anything crazy , jack . you hear me ? nothing crazy . each of us cares deeply about jabot 's success . one family member after another has seen his or her name emblazoned on the c.e.o . office door , but , for some of us , it 's harder to separate our place in the company from our identity as an abbott , and that desire to hold onto control has sometimes come at a steep price . ashley : what is it ? what , you 're evicting me from my own home ? jack : it 's an amendment i had added some time ago to jabot 's corporate bylaws , the rules that govern our little company . it 's a small change but an important one . i had it highlighted there . it 's really only one clause . `` only a blood abbott can hold the title of c.e.o . of jabot . `` ashley : you ca n't do that . jack : it is 100 % legitimate . unlike you , i 'm sorry to remind you . ashley : you son of a bitch ! jack : you 're not taking my job from me , ashley . not ever . after much turmoil , jack has resumed his place at the top , having merged jabot with ashley 's company and working with kyle at his side . something tells me , dad would approve . one can not mention the abbotts without acknowledging the newmans . our families are intertwined in marriages , by children . there are long - standing friendships and , most notoriously , the unparalleled rivalry between jack and victor newman , which has spanned decades . victor : this sheet of paper , it 's the key to your entire future , jack . jack : you 're trading me the company ... for my wife . victor : you 're talking to me , jack abbott . i know that this is what you 've been hoping and praying for since the day that you married nikki . so stop your moral indignation , all right ? it 's too obvious . that is my final proposition , take it or leave . jack : you really surprised me , newman . i figured you 'd offer me a percentage , you know , 5 % , 10 % , possibly 20 % , but the whole company . victor : i can offer you 5 % , 10 % , 20 % , 80 % . i am negotiating with the lives of nikki or my children . this is my final offer . jabot in exchange ... for nikki and the children . i want you to get your things , and i want you to get out !

[ sighs ] i know . it 's just one of those things that you ... carry with you . jack : yes , that abbott clause ... was written to keep phyllis from making a claim on the company , but the darker truth is ... i did n't want to have to compete against you . there was a part of me , a part of me i 'm -- i 'm not at all proud of , that could n't accept the possibility that -- you would outshine me , be a better chief executive than i was . so i secured my position by making sure you could n't compete . that is the truth . and , for that , i am deeply , genuinely sorry . billy : i got to say , that took a hell of a lot of courage to admit . ashley : something our big brother has an abundance of . jack : not always . traci : but always when it counts . here . try that . jack : thus , our story will live on ... not only in these pages , but ... but in our traditions , in our memories , in our hearts . traci : [ laughs ] jack : wow . wow . billy : well , that 's a hell of an accomplishment . ashley : everything was just so exquisite , every single word . traci : oh , thank you so much . you guys are making me cry . jack : well , why should you be any different than the rest of us ?

[ scene_break ] todd : i 'm going to kill you now . spencer : now , is that any way to talk to the man who just saved your life ? starr : dad what are you doing ? dad , let go of him ! do you want to go to prison ? you just got out of there . todd : uh -- you know what you ought to do ? mosey on down to the cafeteria , see if you can rustle up some ice cream . starr : no way am i going now . todd : do n't worry about it . i just want to talk to dr. truman alone . spencer : it 's all right , starr . go ahead . nobody 's going to get hurt here . todd : hey ? three scoops , two spoons . starr : fine . spencer : well , if your grip and your appetite 's any indication , i 'd say you were well on your way to a full recovery . todd : i feel wonderful . and i got you to thank for that , doc . spencer : yeah , well , if i had n't been at the prison to support blair , you would be dead by now . todd : yeah . i 'm sorry about that because then you and blair would be living happily ever after now , would n't you ? snowball 's chance of that now . spencer : you know , todd , i never really wanted you dead in the first place . otherwise , you would be . you know , and -- and i did n't have anything to do with that whole crazy , wacky margaret woman 's , you know , plot scheme thing . i mean , that 's just ridiculous , but i can relate to you a whole lot better now , i must say , being falsely accused of a very heinous crime . but it 's baseless . it 'll all go away , and i will continue to live out the life that i started with blair . todd : you really think she 's going to stay with you ? spencer : it 's what 's best for her , and if you really care about her , you 'd do the right thing , my friend . you 'd step aside . [ scene_break ] david : score one for me -- i outsmarted my older brother . i found out that spencer had gone to bangkok , so i went to thailand to figure out what he 'd been doing there . blair : he works for the world medical alliance . he goes there because he works for tsunami relief . david : and margaret cochran just happened to wash up on shore ? blair : david , she 's crazy . we all know that . david : did n't look crazy to me . and i did n't see the baby that paige miller helped spencer deliver . blair : what -- paige -- what ? david : paige helped spencer deliver margaret and todd 's baby right here in llanview -- told me all about it . blair : wait , well -- where 's the baby ? david : i think spencer gave it away . i think that 's why he went to thailand in the first place . blair : come on , it 's -- it 's insane . i mean , you want me to believe that paige miller delivered margaret 's baby ? she saw margaret alive , which could 've saved todd , and did n't say anything ? why ? david : to protect bo . spencer doctored some evidence to make bo look dirty . blair : david , you 're just trying to get away with something . that 's what this is about . david : forget me , blair . spencer is the one you should take a closer look at . blair : well , is there anything that makes spencer look guilty ? i mean , do you have anything ? david : yes , i do -- the formerly dead woman , margaret . blair : who ca n't remember anything . wait a minute -- there 's nothing that ties spencer and margaret , ok ? so as far as i 'm concerned , spencer is still the good friend to me that he 's always been . [ scene_break ] margaret : oh , i ca n't wait for you to meet your daddy . oh , mommy made a mistake . she never should 've trusted that bad man . oh , but do n't you worry , t.j. mommy 's coming . and daddy , too . we 're going to get our sweet little baby back . then we 're going to get spencer .

[ scene_break ] spencer : i 'm sure you can imagine the trauma blair suffered through after margaret disappeared . slowly but surely , though , she managed to pick up the pieces of her life , very bravely , i might add . todd : with a little help from dr. feelgood . spencer : mm - hmm . i wish you 'd been there to see it . blair and i were just getting things together . her life was just getting on track and then it all blows up in her face . todd : oh . spencer : you know , blair needs stability , todd . i can provide that , you ca n't . what she does need from you is closure . you could give her that and help her move on with her life . todd : so you can maintain your grip on her ? whew . yeah , but you know how she works . she has a little relationship problem , a little man problem , she just goes out and puts on her red dress , you know ? looks for a man , catches a man , throws him away , comes back to me . hmm . let 's face it -- you 're not here for her well - being . your relationship with her is a house of cards . i huff and i puff and it comes down , and it 's over for you . it 's already over actually . she 's on to you . [ scene_break ] blair : well , this was a huge waste of time . david : what -- wait . blair ? listen to me . spencer is sick . he is psychotic . he makes margaret look sane . blair : do you have any proof that he 's dr . evil ? david : i do n't have proof . blair : yeah , because there is n't any . it 's just a bunch of hot air , because all you ever do , david , is lie . you 've lied ever since you arrived in llanview . you lie to get women , you lie about money , you lie to cover up a 25-year - old murder . david : yes . but i 'm telling the truth now . blair : why now all of a sudden , huh ? david : to save you , blair . if you ignore me , if you go back to spencer , you 'll be putting your life in the hands of the man who tried to send todd to his death . he 'll turn on you , blair . he will turn on you one day . are you really willing to take that risk ? [ scene_break ] margaret : you never meant to reunite me with todd . you just set him up so that he would die . oh , and stupid fool that i am , i helped you ! i never should 've trusted that spencer . but this is one mistake that i can rectify right now . look , you have to turn this van around and get me back to the llanview p.d . i have urgent business with the police commissioner . [ scene_break ] john : what are you , an idiot ? you actually believe for one minute bo set manning up for a double homicide ? hugh : of course not , but these signatures make bo look guilty and that 's how it 'll play to the press . next thing you know , there 'll be -- there 'll be some special prosecutor setting up shop upstairs and bo will be his only person of interest . bo : i got to admit , that 's the way i read it . hugh : bo headed up an investigation that targeted one man from the start . we never even looked at another suspect . that was part of evangeline 's case -- it 's on record . john : that 's because all the evidence pointed to manning . hugh : yeah , only it was phony . everything we 've got now leading to spencer is either circumstantial or hearsay . we ca n't ignore these signatures because they do n't help the case we want to make . maybe there 's some other sicko out there trying to frame bo or even spencer . bo : i 'm with you on this . you know , we 've got to do this by the book or we 'll compromise the whole investigation . hugh : and make bo look even guiltier . now , whether these documents are spencer 's handiwork or not , we have to find something to discredit them . john : we get margaret to confess . hugh : oh , that 's -- that 's unlikely . john : look , what we need to do right now is we need to be suspicious of any other incriminating evidence truman might 've left around for us to dig up . bo : if we do dig up more evidence , i 'll turn in my badge . [ scene_break ] jessica : antonio , do you know what happened to me when i was little ? antonio : yeah . i do . jessica : how ? antonio : viki and clint talked tess into therapy , starting the integration process . jessica : therapy ? tess would never agree to ther -- [ as young jess ] i told him that i wanted a kitty of my own . and he said that he had kittens back at his house i could play with .

theresa : just -- [ scoffs ] like i said before , i just -- i forgot to delete his -- brady : so just so i 'm clear , you do n't plan on doing coke unless i do it with you . theresa : yeah . brady : mm . theresa : but you know , i 'm game for , like , an eight ball if that 's what you want . brady : if it 's what i want ? theresa : yeah . i mean , whatever , it 's up to you . marlena : nicole , i do n't know what you 're talking about , but more to the point , neither do you . nicole : oh , do n't play dumb with me . i heard you telling eric to do what 's best for him , and it 's so obvious you 're the one pushing him to think he needs to get married in a church . marlena : what ? nicole : you put that stupid idea in his head , did n't you ? eric : nicole ! what in the world are you doing ? ej : i 'm so glad that we 're all under one roof again , father . you know , i have to say , i missed you lurking around the place , never quite knowing who you were listening in on . you know what i miss the most ? your gloomy rhetorical pronouncements . i do hope you wo n't be too disappointed . how 's the blood sugar ? the blood pressure ? right ? is that it ? i do hope that you do n't have a stroke . stefano : it is nice for us to be under one roof together . ej : i 'll tell you what . you can have your drink and sit down , and you can be as gloomy as you want to . you can bring out your entire arsenal of doom and gloom . you will not put one crimp in my wedding . this house is going to be full of laughter and happiness , and there is not a damn thing that you can do about it . stefano : you know something , i have nothing against love and laughter . but i just hope that all of this is not going to blow up in your face . ej : [ sighs ] sami : gabi ?

hope : no . louis : oh , gosh . i 'm -- i 'm so sorry . i thought that was understood . hope : no , no , no . no , actually , it -- it was n't understood . i 'm sorry , i assumed , which i know i should never assume , but i thought you were aware that mr. jennings and i do n't have the best history , do we ? aiden : well ... louis : well , i 'm sure whatever minor issues the two of you have can be resolved , especially since your collaboration , if you will , would have such enormous impact on the school . it 's such help . and especially for the children . aiden : okay , well , with all due respect , father , as much as we both love to do anything we can to help the school , i think in this particular situation , it would be best if maybe just one of us was put in charge . louis : oh , no . no , no , no . i 'm sorry . this is -- this is just -- it 's a two- person job . aiden : two - person job ? louis : oh , yeah , absolutely . i mean , there 's just way too much responsibility for one person to -- [ phone rings ] louis : oh , ' scuse me . sorry . think this is -- oh , well , i am -- i 'm so sorry , i 've got ta go . but i am so excited to tell everyone the good news . hope : no , we did n't agree to anything . why -- he does tha -- he does that all the -- this -- aiden . aiden . aiden : [ sighs ] hmm ?

i 'm gon na talk to him , and i will get us out of this . all right ? hope : oh , perfect . after all , you are the one who got us into this . aiden : what ? brady : you know , it 's not a good idea for me to drink and talk about cocaine at the same time . bad idea . theresa : okay , well , you do n't have to decide right now . brady : no , i already did . i already made up my mind . i do n't -- i do n't -- i do n't want the stuff , i do n't need it . it 's a bad combination , cocaine and me . theresa : it 's fine , i wo n't mention it again . brady : okay . all right . i actually do -- i have to go , though , i got a lot of work to do , so ... theresa : hey , brady , wait . brady : yeah ? [ clears throat ] theresa : are you mad at me ? eric : i ca n't believe you were making such a scene out there . nicole : what was i supposed to do ? just sit there with my hands folded while she poisons you against me ? eric : but i was n't even there . nicole : well , check your messages . she left you a long voicemail . she 's doing everything to keep us from getting married . eric : but she does n't know anything about that . nicole : bull . she said she supports your decision 100 % . marlena : i was talking about a decision to turn down a job . nicole : then why did n't you say so ? marlena : because i never got a chance . you were talking about getting married ? you 're concerned about not getting married in church ? is that because you 're divorced ? eric : mom , this is a private matter . nicole : yeah . so for once in your life , butt out . sami : gabi , are you okay ? gabi : sami ? is that you ? sami : oh , yeah , it 's me . just let me in , okay ? gabi : uh , yeah , i will be right there . just go out my bedroom window . just go . nick : okay . gabi : go . okay , hi . sami : hey . what took you so long to answer the door ? are you okay ? gabi : yeah , i was just changing out of my bridesmaid 's dress . yeah . sami : i came here 'cause i -- uh , thanks . i wanted to bring will and sonny their wedding gift so it was here when they -- got home . [ scoffs ] i do n't believe it . i was living with pain -- all over . aiden : how in god 's name did i get us into this , hmm ? hope : father louis would n't think we 're these fundraising geniuses if you had n't written that big check . aiden : so now i 'm the bad guy for giving money to the school . hope : for showboating . aiden : showboating . hope : showboating . you ca n't blame him for wanting us to work together again . he thinks we made financial history off of lemon meringue pies . he would n't be putting this amount of pressure on us if you had n't cooked the books . aiden : you know what , detective brady ? hope : what ? aiden : you 're absolutely right . brady : i 'm not mad . theresa : yeah , but we were having such a great time , and now all of a sudden you 're leaving . i just -- i feel like i messed everything up by talking about coke . brady : that 's not -- that 's not why i 'm leaving . okay ? no , honestly , i really -- i just have some things i got ta do . that 's all . theresa : okay , but i just want you to know that -- i mean , that drugs are n't really a big deal for me , okay ? i 'm just really sorry that i brought it up , and i mean , it wo n't happen again . i do n't even like coke . brady : mm . well , you 're lucky . theresa : but hey , i do like you . so i just want to make sure that this wo n't get in the way of us getting to know each other better . brady : [ sighs ] it wo n't . everything 's cool , okay ? theresa : well , thanks for not being mad . you 'll call me later ? brady : yeah . i 'll call you later . marlena : i know you two need your privacy . eric : mom . i 'm sorry for the misunderstanding . marlena : that 's all right . i understand now why nicole was so upset . if you need to talk to me , you know where to find me . and whatever you do will be the right thing . eric : [ sighs ] nicole : `` i understand now why nicole was so upset `` ? [ groans ] strangle that woman . [ sighs ] eric : we have a lot of problems to work through . i mean , starting with the statement that you made that you could strangle my mother to death . nicole : oh , for -- eric : and not to mention that you were screaming at her in public and i 'm just gon na shrug off the fact -- what is that term that you always use ? `` dead wrong `` ? nicole : okay . i 'm wrong a lot . i fly off the handle a lot . but when your mother found out that we were having problems getting married , she was n't exactly heartbroken . eric : you do n't know that . you know , and if you had n't flown off the handle , we would be talking about us , not about her . nicole : i did n't know you did n't tell her . you told daniel , you told that priest . eric : i talked to them because i needed their guidance . nicole : what you need is something other than guidance . and let me tell you , i am not thrilled that the man i want to marry comes in a room and just like that comes down on his mommy 's side . eric : okay . nicole : i 'm sorry . i screwed up . i 'm unhappy , and i 'm hurt , and i 'm scared to death that i 'm gon na lose you . but that does n't matter , does it ? all that matters is what i did wrong . so why do n't you give me my penance and go talk to some priest to tell you what to do next ? [ sighs ] eric : nicole , i know that this is hard . i do n't want you to doubt for a moment that i love you . nicole : i do n't doubt you love me . just not enough to marry me . sami : i just ca n't believe it . gabi : i can explain . sami : i mean , i know they just got married , but seriously , he ca n't even put away his shoe ? will is such a slob . i apologize for my son . gabi : i thought , two gay men , of course they 're gon na be nice and tidy , but no , it 's -- no . sami : yeah . oh , hey , where 's arianna ? gabi : oh , she 's , um -- she 's sleeping . sami : oh . gabi : she 's asleep . sami : well , actually , that 's great , you know , uh , that gives us a chance to talk . gabi : about what ? sami : well , i mean , i saw you at the wedding , and i know you are so happy for will and sonny , of course you are , but i was thinking you might be a little lonely too , you know ? these last few months have been so weird . gabi : it 's okay , i -- thank you for caring . i 'm fine , sami . sami : are you sure ? gabi : positive . sami : okay , well , listen , if you ever need someone to lean on , please come to me or kate or , you know -- well , one of us . you know , i just do n't want you turning to an outsider for support . gabi : that 's code , is n't it , sami ? `` an outsider , `` you mean nick ? sami : [ sighs ] stefano : [ muttering ] ej : look , i know you would like this wedding to blow up in my face , father , but sorry . i 'm afraid it 's gon na be perfect . stefano : [ chuckles ] like the first time . mm . ej : ah , look , samantha and i have got a lot stronger through our adversity . why are you bringing up the first time , anyway ? are you feeling a little left out of love at the moment ? your dinner with kate ? are you feeling a little , maybe , out of the loop , a little bereft , a little on the sidelines , possibly ? stefano : eh , i get the point . ej : so ... share the joy . father , share the joy . samantha and i have never been in this place before . the children are about to be part of a real family with two full - time parents . be happy for me . [ glasses clink ] ej : thank you . stefano : you paint such a pretty picture . ej : look , you know , all joking aside , i would like you to be at the wedding , because i want you to see how pretty this picture is going to be . this is going to be truly the happiest day of my life . stefano : elvis , you 're absolutely right . everything will be fine . ej : i told you . stefano : mm . as long as samantha does n't find out that you have been banging abigail deveraux . hope : [ laughs ] did you just say i was right ? aiden : yup . yup , it 's all my fault . so i 'm gon na talk to father louis , and i will come clean about that check . hope : great . perfect . thank you . aiden : okay . but i do think it 's better for everyone involved if i chair the committee . and i 'll convince father louis that i do n't need you , which is true . hope : [ laughs ] really ? aiden : yeah , no , look , i 'm not trying to offend you here . hope : oh , you never have to try . aiden : no , i just know i can do this . hope : uh - huh . i mean , look , i have the time on my hands , i have the drive ... hope : yeah . aiden : and i 'm gon na be honest with you , i want to raise more money for st. luke 's than anyone else ever has . hope : even if it means more of your own money . aiden : well , if that 's what it takes , so be it . hope : wow . boy , oh , boy . you define competitive . aiden : oh . detective brady , you have no idea . i will see you around . hope : not if i see you first . eric : i know you 're hurt . i 'm sorry . i really am . nicole , the problem that we face ... i really hope that we can face it together . but my faith -- my faith is just -- it 's who i am . nicole : it 's not your faith that i have a problem with . it 's your church . eric : they 're one and the same to me . nicole : really ? even though it turned its back on you when kristen tried to ruin your life ? eric : that 's not the way i see it , nicole . when i was in africa , i was ... i was lost . the church is what helped me find my way back . listen , i do n't think that i can pick and choose parts of the church that i will or will not follow . nicole : i get that this is n't easy for you either . but you need to understand there 's a limit . we ca n't sleep together until we 're married . your decision , and i accepted it . but now we ca n't get married ? [ chuckles ] i 'm sorry , but i 'm not the platonic type . we know what the church says , so here 's what i say . if we ca n't be a couple in every way , then we are done . gabi : look , i do n't want another lecture about nick . sami : okay , i was n't going to lecture you . you already know how i feel about the horrible things that nick did to you . gabi : what horrible things , exactly , are you talking about ? him not arresting us for trying to kill him ? sami : well , right , because he decided he 'd rather have us blackmailed and tortured instead . gabi : okay , like , making a ton of money for kate or having you hire me as a model even though ej said it was a fantastic idea . that 's a strange way to torture and blackmail people who tried to kill you . sami : first of all , we were n't trying to kill him . if you 'll recall , we were trying to get rid of a dead body so that that baby sleeping in the next room would have a mother . so that you would n't spend the rest of your life making license plates in an orange jumpsuit . gabi , do you remember why you hit him on the head with that rock ? gabi : i 'm so glad that you 're not lecturing me and that i can call you any time i want so that you can tell me how wrong i am about everything i do . sami : look , i 'm sorry , but you are wrong about nick . and the fact that you would even consider making small talk with him is absolutely crazy . gabi : know what , you 're repeating yourself , so i will too . as long as you 're with ej dimera , you are the last person in the world to say anything about nick . stefano : [ groans ] ej : what the hell are you talking about , father ? stefano : what i am talking about is your little piece on the side . ej : one , i would never ever be unfaithful to samantha , and two , abigail deveraux is a lovely girl . stefano : oh , absolutely , a lovely young woman that you were scared to death that you knocked her up . [ laughs ] you certainly dodged a bullet there . let 's keep our fingers crossed , all right , that samantha never stumbles on your tumble in the hay . [ chuckles ] now , you know better than anyone what a name she 's got , right ? [ chuckles ] aiden : well , the court made a very wise choice assigning this case to you . marlena : what we originally read as being closed off was just fear . once he got past that he began to open up . aiden : mm . well , i 'm sure you 're the one who got him past that . opened him up . marlena : well , i 've attached my card to the file . it 's a new email address , so if you need anything , you can find me . aiden : okay . uh , dr. evans . marlena : hm ? aiden : i was wondering , are you taking on any new patients ? marlena : oh . wow , i 've got a pretty heavy case load . you know what , if you refer somebody , i could make some room . aiden : great . good to know . hope : [ typing ] brady : fancy seeing you here . hope : hey , hi . i do n't know why , i get more work done here than at the station . brady : ah . are you working -- if you 're working , i can go -- hope : no , no , no . hey , look . just finished . have a seat . brady : thanks . i , um ... i wanted to talk to you about something . someone , actually . hope : shoot . brady : it 's about your niece theresa . hope : theresa ? what about her ? brady : i 've been seeing a lot of her , hope . and i heard about some problems that she had in l.a. , and i was wondering if those problems had anything to do with drugs . hope : well , i 'm not sure i feel comfortable talking about theresa 's legal problems . brady : legal problems . i 'll take that as a yes . hope : brady , if you 're worried about her past , then you should probably ask her yourself . but if you 're asking me if i think it 's a good idea you hang out with her , then -- [ phone rings ] hope : i 'm sorry . it 'll just take a second . brady : oh , no , hope , actually , um , take your call . it 's okay . hope : brady -- brady : i 'll see you later . thank you . [ phone ringing ] hope : brady , just -- it will take one -- [ sighs ] detective brady . eric : i feel like i 'm on top of all of our other problems . i 'm just not very good at this man , woman stuff , and i feel i was a better seminarian than your boyfriend . your feelings , they take me by surprise , and they should n't . nicole : amen to that . you should n't have done it , eric . you should n't have given me hope when there was n't any . eric : i do n't know that that 's true . nicole : you know the church 's rules . you knew i was married . god knows i 'm not annulment material . you had to have seen this coming . eric : okay , nicole , i want -- nicole : oh , my gosh , this is worse than having to hide my feelings from you when we worked together at the rectory . at least then i knew there was absolutely no hope . but now that i have the chance to be with the man i love , just to have it ripped away from me , that is way too much . i respect your dilemma . i really do . but you need to respect mine . man , i ca n't live like this . i 'll give you some time to think about it , but not forever . okay ? actually , not that long at all . sami : ej is nothing like that little creep . gabi : i 've heard your list of nick 's sins , and they 're absolutely nothing compared to ej . in case you 've forgotten , you should probably ask my brother . he had a swell time in the dimera mansion dungeon . or , sorry , guest room . right ? oh , now you 're gon na say that he 's changed , right ? and you did n't listen to anybody who told you he could n't , and i 'm not gon na listen to you about nick . sami : [ sighs ] uh , listen , gabi , i am just worried about you . if you let nick back into your life , i 'm afraid he 's going to hurt you again . gabi : i never said that we were getting back together . either way , the point is that it 's my decision , sami . all right ? now , i 'd like for you to go . i 'm exhausted , and i want a nap while arianna 's still sleeping . sami : [ sighs ] god , help me . nick : thank you . ej : you son of a bitch . you had me followed . stefano : i only want you to know that i am here to help you with samantha , just as i know you are going to help me with katerina . ej : if i help you with kate ... then nobody ever finds out about abigail , correct ? and no one else knows . stefano : no , no , no . it is just you , me , and abigail . dr. garcia is very loyal to me , okay ? she 'll do anything i ask her to do . ej : no , no , no , wait , wait , wait a minute . did she lie to me ? is abigail pregnant ? aiden : [ sighs ] hope : marlena . marlena . hey ! hey ! [ chuckles ] marlena , are you ignoring me ? marlena : of course not . hope : oh , i was calling your name . you seemed like you were worlds away . marlena : oh , well , maybe i was . hope : yeah ? about what ? marlena : eric and nicole . hope : eric and nicole . oh , what could you possibly have to worry about there ? marlena : mm . between us , i had a run - in with nicole today . and she -- she blew up at me , over a complete misunderstanding . hope : meaning she was dead wrong . marlena : well , no , that 's kind of not the point , but i -- i do think perhaps she 's hiding something . louis : nicole . nice to see you . nicole : right . louis : father matt and i miss you at the rectory . nicole : yes , well , i 'm sure you 'll find some other fallen woman to file for you . louis : nicole -- nicole : no , seriously , i know that you talked to eric , and i know you told him it was wrong for him to marry me , so excuse me if i do n't want to wax nostalgic about my good ol ' rectory days . louis : i hope you know this is not about judging you . nicole : well , it sure as hell feels like it . theresa : [ sighs ] you know , i just -- i want you to know that drugs have never really been a big deal for me . i mean , i do n't even like coke . [ giggles ] freaking love it . oh , mr. black . you sounded so cool and collected , but i saw your face . i saw it in your eyes when i started talking about coke . it wo n't be long before you crack . and when you do , i have you right where i want you . [ sighs ] eric : i did n't expect to see you here . brady : i did n't expect to see you either . had a lot of great memories around here , huh ? eric : yeah , i still like to come here and pray . brady : well , have at it . pray away . eric : hey , you do n't have to go . brady : i have a question for you , actually . you know i 've been seeing your cousin theresa , right ? eric : yeah , kinda figured that when i saw you together at sonny 's club . brady : what do you think of it ? honestly . eric : [ sighs ] i think as much as i love her , she has some serious problems , problems that you -- brady : problems that i -- i might have in common with her ? eric : i do n't think seeing her is a good idea for you right now . brady : no , um ... i think you 're right . stefano : [ chuckles ] no , no , no , no . there is nothing for you to worry about , because abigail is not pregnant . and dr. garcia -- well , she wo n't say a word to anyone . ej : [ hyperventilating ] just do me a favor , can we just change the subject , please ? all right ? abigail just wants this put behind her just as much as i do . stefano : have you learned nothing , my son ? hmm ? when it comes to women , nothing is certain . sami : what 's going on ? stefano : ah . ej : we were , um ... just -- just -- just talking . stefano : yes . [ chuckles ] sami : really ? seems more than that . you were tense . stefano : oh . sami : stefano and ej , you both looked kind of tense to me . and you did n't even hear me come in , so obviously it 's more -- what 's going on ? stefano : we were just discussing your fiancé 's big secret . across america , people are taking charge of gabi : i thought you 'd left . nick : well , i thought it 'd be a little awkward walking around with -- with one shoe . gabi : oh , right , sorry . nick : [ laughs ] gabi : here . here . nick : thank you . gabi : so , um ... so you heard everything that sami said . nick : i did . but more importantly , i heard everything that you said . and it meant the world to me . [ baby cries ] gabi : uh ... [ sighs ] nick : i guess we 'll -- we 'll have to wait for that nap . gabi : yeah . nick : some other time . gabi : [ chuckles ] nick : i 'll , uh ... see you soon . gabi : yeah . soon . nick : okay . sami : you tell your father that we do n't have secrets . stefano : [ chuckles ] every marriage has secrets , my dear . keeps things from getting ... dull . sami : uh , i 'm pretty sure we 're never gon na have to worry about being dull . [ sami and ej giggle ] ej : no , father 's just being provocative , as usual . i do have a little secret , but i can assure you it 's the good kind . sami : oh , really ? is it about our wedding ? ej : [ chuckles ] stefano : you could say that . ej : [ sighs ] what are you doing back , anyway ? i thought you had errands to run . sami : oh , i do . yes , i dropped off will and sonny 's wedding gifts , but then i forgot the stupid school permission form that lucas signed for allie , so i 'm back . but anyway , i have to get going again . [ smooches ] oh , um , in case there are surprises happening , i do like emeralds . [ door closes ] ej : father ... she can never find out about what happened with abigail . it would absolutely destroy her . stefano : [ sighs ] i dare say it would . brady : thanks for the advice . eric : brady ... [ sighs ] let theresa down gently . she may act tough , but she 's -- she 's pretty vulnerable . brady : right . eric : it 's just that she may have a hard time hearing you do n't want to see her anymore . brady : who said i 'm gon na stop seeing her ? hope : what do you think she 's hiding ? marlena : i 'm not sure . you know , i thought she had let chyka escape , but then when i spoke to him , he said not . there is something . there 's something she 's hiding , she is just so ... she 's so concerned , she 's so guilty . nicole : oh , my god . oh , my god . yes . these are the files on eric . okay . and the drug cocktails . this -- this is it . [ shredder whirring ] nicole : maybe this is god 's way of punishing me for everything i did to keep eric . but there 's nothing i can do about it now . the evidence is gone , and no one knows i had it . | nicole told marlena that she was marrying eric . while gabi and nick were making out , sami showed up . nicole accused marlena of convincing eric to get married in a church . eric showed up while they were arguing . ej told stefano that there was nothing he ( stefano ) could do to stop his wedding to sami . sami noticed a shoe in the apartment . eric and nicole argued over her accusation . hope blamed aiden for why they had to work together again . sami thought the shoe was will 's . gabi was nervous . sami wanted gabi to turn to her or kate for support . sami did n't want her going to an outsider for help . gabi figured out that sami did n't want her turning to nick . when ej told stefano that his wedding was going to be perfect , stefano told him as long as sami did n't find out that he slept with abby . ej was horrified . | <s>[INST] brady : i had a different dealer . and i had never heard of cane . how is his stuff ? any good ? theresa : best stuff in the state . at least that 's what they say . brady : no kidding ? theresa : you know , i 'm not sure that he 'd remember me , but i can make a call if you want . brady : yeah ? theresa : if you 're interested . whatever , it 's up to you . brady : how much were you planning on getting ? louis : so i do n't know how you did it , but that bake sale managed to raise almost twice as much money as we thought possible . hope : i 'm very happy to help . louis : you did a terrific job . and , uh ... i know this is asking a lot , but i would like you to take over the annual fundraiser at the school . in fact , put you in charge of all of st. luke 's fundraising . hope : that 's very flattering , but honestly i 'm not sure i have the time . louis : well , i know you 're busy . and , uh ... and i do n't mean to pressure you , but , you know , if you look at everything that your nephew eric did to put that school up and running , i mean , it would really , really mean a lot to him if you kept it going . hope : [ sighs ] okay . maybe i could manage it . i mean , i suppose i do have two free afternoons . and one day off on the weekends . louis : so that means you 'll do it ? hope : yes , i 'll do it . louis : oh , that 's great . hope : but one stipulation , please . louis : of course . hope : there 's someone i just ca n't work with , so if i could recommend someone , i -- louis : oh , look , there 's your partner now . marlena : i know you 've got a difficult decision to make , but whatever you do , it will be exactly right for you , and i will support you 100 % . bye , eric . nicole . nicole : i knew it . i knew you would come between eric and me . if you think it 's gon na work you 've got another thing coming , you bitch . marlena : what are you talking about ? nicole : you 're such a damn phony , pretending you 're fine with eric and me . you just do n't stop , do you ? you 're trying to poison him against me , you 're trying to get me out of his life . marlena : oh , for heaven 's sake -- nicole : well , i 've got news for you -- marlena : i think you need to lower your voice a little bit . nicole : it did n't work before ; it is certainly not gon na work now . eric and i are getting married whether you like it or not . ej : it is important because i 'm marrying the love of my life . i mean , everything has to be perfect . do you hear me ? nothing can go wrong . thank you . stefano : ahh ... well , looks like you have high hopes for your wedding to samantha . ej : very high , yes . stefano : my hope is that you will not end up being disappointed . [ knock on door ] gabi : ignore it , they 'll go away . nick : okay . sami : gabi , are you home ? where 's my key ? gabi : it 's sami . nick : it 's okay , like you said , she 'll go away . gabi : no , no , no . you do n't understand , she has a key . theresa : well , i was n't thinking about getting any coke at all . like i said before , i can take it or leave it . brady : take it or leave it , yeah , that 's what you said . theresa : look , i only got the idea because you found my dealer 's name in my contact list . brady : just in case you decided not to leave it , right ? theresa : just -- [ scoffs ] like i said before , i just -- i forgot to delete his -- brady : so just so i 'm clear , you do n't plan on doing coke unless i do it with you . theresa : yeah . brady : mm . theresa : but you know , i 'm game for , like , an eight ball if that 's what you want . brady : if it 's what i want ? theresa : yeah . i mean , whatever , it 's up to you . marlena : nicole , i do n't know what you 're talking about , but more to the point , neither do you . nicole : oh , do n't play dumb with me . i heard you telling eric to do what 's best for him , and it 's so obvious you 're the one pushing him to think he needs to get married in a church . marlena : what ? nicole : you put that stupid idea in his head , did n't you ? eric : nicole ! what in the world are you doing ? ej : i 'm so glad that we 're all under one roof again , father . you know , i have to say , i missed you lurking around the place , never quite knowing who you were listening in on . you know what i miss the most ? your gloomy rhetorical pronouncements . i do hope you wo n't be too disappointed . how 's the blood sugar ? the blood pressure ? right ? is that it ? i do hope that you do n't have a stroke . stefano : it is nice for us to be under one roof together . ej : i 'll tell you what . you can have your drink and sit down , and you can be as gloomy as you want to . you can bring out your entire arsenal of doom and gloom . you will not put one crimp in my wedding . this house is going to be full of laughter and happiness , and there is not a damn thing that you can do about it . stefano : you know something , i have nothing against love and laughter . but i just hope that all of this is not going to blow up in your face . ej : [ sighs ] sami : gabi ? hey , gabi , it 's sami . can you hear me ? but the chain is on , so she must be home . wonder what she 's doing . louis : aiden , thank you so much for joining us . hope : could i talk to you for a minute , just privately ? louis : so fortunate you came . aiden : fortunate ? why ? what 's going on ? louis : well , i was just telling hope that i would like the two of you to team up for our annual fundraising . hope : no , actually , i 'm sorry , um , father , you never said anything about teaming up with anyone . that is , you never mentioned anything about aiden jennings as a partner . louis : oh , i - i did n't ? hope : no . louis : oh , gosh . i 'm -- i 'm so sorry . i thought that was understood . hope : no , no , no . no , actually , it -- it was n't understood . i 'm sorry , i assumed , which i know i should never assume , but i thought you were aware that mr. jennings and i do n't have the best history , do we ? aiden : well ... louis : well , i 'm sure whatever minor issues the two of you have can be resolved , especially since your collaboration , if you will , would have such enormous impact on the school . it 's such help . and especially for the children . aiden : okay , well , with all due respect , father , as much as we both love to do anything we can to help the school , i think in this particular situation , it would be best if maybe just one of us was put in charge . louis : oh , no . no , no , no . i 'm sorry . this is -- this is just -- it 's a two- person job . aiden : two - person job ? louis : oh , yeah , absolutely . i mean , there 's just way too much responsibility for one person to -- [ phone rings ] louis : oh , ' scuse me . sorry . think this is -- oh , well , i am -- i 'm so sorry , i 've got ta go . but i am so excited to tell everyone the good news . hope : no , we did n't agree to anything . why -- he does tha -- he does that all the -- this -- aiden . aiden . aiden : [ sighs ] hmm ? hope : this is serious . well , the bake sale was only a couple of days . this committee , it 's all year . and one of us is definitely gon na end up killing the other one , and it 's just not good for the kids . aiden : no . i was thinking of the kids . all right , look , you leave this to me , okay ? i 'm gon na talk to him , and i will get us out of this . all right ? hope : oh , perfect . after all , you are the one who got us into this . aiden : what ? brady : you know , it 's not a good idea for me to drink and talk about cocaine at the same time . bad idea . theresa : okay , well , you do n't have to decide right now . brady : no , i already did . i already made up my mind . i do n't -- i do n't -- i do n't want the stuff , i do n't need it . it 's a bad combination , cocaine and me . theresa : it 's fine , i wo n't mention it again . brady : okay . all right . i actually do -- i have to go , though , i got a lot of work to do , so ... theresa : hey , brady , wait . brady : yeah ? [ clears throat ] theresa : are you mad at me ? eric : i ca n't believe you were making such a scene out there . nicole : what was i supposed to do ? just sit there with my hands folded while she poisons you against me ? eric : but i was n't even there . nicole : well , check your messages . she left you a long voicemail . she 's doing everything to keep us from getting married . eric : but she does n't know anything about that . nicole : bull . she said she supports your decision 100 % . marlena : i was talking about a decision to turn down a job . nicole : then why did n't you say so ? marlena : because i never got a chance . you were talking about getting married ? you 're concerned about not getting married in church ? is that because you 're divorced ? eric : mom , this is a private matter . nicole : yeah . so for once in your life , butt out . sami : gabi , are you okay ? gabi : sami ? is that you ? sami : oh , yeah , it 's me . just let me in , okay ? gabi : uh , yeah , i will be right there . just go out my bedroom window . just go . nick : okay . gabi : go . okay , hi . sami : hey . what took you so long to answer the door ? are you okay ? gabi : yeah , i was just changing out of my bridesmaid 's dress . yeah . sami : i came here 'cause i -- uh , thanks . i wanted to bring will and sonny their wedding gift so it was here when they -- got home . [ scoffs ] i do n't believe it . i was living with pain -- all over . aiden : how in god 's name did i get us into this , hmm ? hope : father louis would n't think we 're these fundraising geniuses if you had n't written that big check . aiden : so now i 'm the bad guy for giving money to the school . hope : for showboating . aiden : showboating . hope : showboating . you ca n't blame him for wanting us to work together again . he thinks we made financial history off of lemon meringue pies . he would n't be putting this amount of pressure on us if you had n't cooked the books . aiden : you know what , detective brady ? hope : what ? aiden : you 're absolutely right . brady : i 'm not mad . theresa : yeah , but we were having such a great time , and now all of a sudden you 're leaving . i just -- i feel like i messed everything up by talking about coke . brady : that 's not -- that 's not why i 'm leaving . okay ? no , honestly , i really -- i just have some things i got ta do . that 's all . theresa : okay , but i just want you to know that -- i mean , that drugs are n't really a big deal for me , okay ? i 'm just really sorry that i brought it up , and i mean , it wo n't happen again . i do n't even like coke . brady : mm . well , you 're lucky . theresa : but hey , i do like you . so i just want to make sure that this wo n't get in the way of us getting to know each other better . brady : [ sighs ] it wo n't . everything 's cool , okay ? theresa : well , thanks for not being mad . you 'll call me later ? brady : yeah . i 'll call you later . marlena : i know you two need your privacy . eric : mom . i 'm sorry for the misunderstanding . marlena : that 's all right . i understand now why nicole was so upset . if you need to talk to me , you know where to find me . and whatever you do will be the right thing . eric : [ sighs ] nicole : `` i understand now why nicole was so upset `` ? [ groans ] strangle that woman . [ sighs ] eric : we have a lot of problems to work through . i mean , starting with the statement that you made that you could strangle my mother to death . nicole : oh , for -- eric : and not to mention that you were screaming at her in public and i 'm just gon na shrug off the fact -- what is that term that you always use ? `` dead wrong `` ? nicole : okay . i 'm wrong a lot . i fly off the handle a lot . but when your mother found out that we were having problems getting married , she was n't exactly heartbroken . eric : you do n't know that . you know , and if you had n't flown off the handle , we would be talking about us , not about her . nicole : i did n't know you did n't tell her . you told daniel , you told that priest . eric : i talked to them because i needed their guidance . nicole : what you need is something other than guidance . and let me tell you , i am not thrilled that the man i want to marry comes in a room and just like that comes down on his mommy 's side . eric : okay . nicole : i 'm sorry . i screwed up . i 'm unhappy , and i 'm hurt , and i 'm scared to death that i 'm gon na lose you . but that does n't matter , does it ? all that matters is what i did wrong . so why do n't you give me my penance and go talk to some priest to tell you what to do next ? [ sighs ] eric : nicole , i know that this is hard . i do n't want you to doubt for a moment that i love you . nicole : i do n't doubt you love me . just not enough to marry me . sami : i just ca n't believe it . gabi : i can explain . sami : i mean , i know they just got married , but seriously , he ca n't even put away his shoe ? will is such a slob . i apologize for my son . gabi : i thought , two gay men , of course they 're gon na be nice and tidy , but no , it 's -- no . sami : yeah . oh , hey , where 's arianna ? gabi : oh , she 's , um -- she 's sleeping . sami : oh . gabi : she 's asleep . sami : well , actually , that 's great , you know , uh , that gives us a chance to talk . gabi : about what ? sami : well , i mean , i saw you at the wedding , and i know you are so happy for will and sonny , of course you are , but i was thinking you might be a little lonely too , you know ? these last few months have been so weird . gabi : it 's okay , i -- thank you for caring . i 'm fine , sami . sami : are you sure ? gabi : positive . sami : okay , well , listen , if you ever need someone to lean on , please come to me or kate or , you know -- well , one of us . you know , i just do n't want you turning to an outsider for support . gabi : that 's code , is n't it , sami ? `` an outsider , `` you mean nick ? sami : [ sighs ] stefano : [ muttering ] ej : look , i know you would like this wedding to blow up in my face , father , but sorry . i 'm afraid it 's gon na be perfect . stefano : [ chuckles ] like the first time . mm . ej : ah , look , samantha and i have got a lot stronger through our adversity . why are you bringing up the first time , anyway ? are you feeling a little left out of love at the moment ? your dinner with kate ? are you feeling a little , maybe , out of the loop , a little bereft , a little on the sidelines , possibly ? stefano : eh , i get the point . ej : so ... share the joy . father , share the joy . samantha and i have never been in this place before . the children are about to be part of a real family with two full - time parents . be happy for me . [ glasses clink ] ej : thank you . stefano : you paint such a pretty picture . ej : look , you know , all joking aside , i would like you to be at the wedding , because i want you to see how pretty this picture is going to be . this is going to be truly the happiest day of my life . stefano : elvis , you 're absolutely right . everything will be fine . ej : i told you . stefano : mm . as long as samantha does n't find out that you have been banging abigail deveraux . hope : [ laughs ] did you just say i was right ? aiden : yup . yup , it 's all my fault . so i 'm gon na talk to father louis , and i will come clean about that check . hope : great . perfect . thank you . aiden : okay . but i do think it 's better for everyone involved if i chair the committee . and i 'll convince father louis that i do n't need you , which is true . hope : [ laughs ] really ? aiden : yeah , no , look , i 'm not trying to offend you here . hope : oh , you never have to try . aiden : no , i just know i can do this . hope : uh - huh . i mean , look , i have the time on my hands , i have the drive ... hope : yeah . aiden : and i 'm gon na be honest with you , i want to raise more money for st. luke 's than anyone else ever has . hope : even if it means more of your own money . aiden : well , if that 's what it takes , so be it . hope : wow . boy , oh , boy . you define competitive . aiden : oh . detective brady , you have no idea . i will see you around . hope : not if i see you first . eric : i know you 're hurt . i 'm sorry . i really am . nicole , the problem that we face ... i really hope that we can face it together . but my faith -- my faith is just -- it 's who i am . nicole : it 's not your faith that i have a problem with . it 's your church . eric : they 're one and the same to me . nicole : really ? even though it turned its back on you when kristen tried to ruin your life ? eric : that 's not the way i see it , nicole . when i was in africa , i was ... i was lost . the church is what helped me find my way back . listen , i do n't think that i can pick and choose parts of the church that i will or will not follow . nicole : i get that this is n't easy for you either . but you need to understand there 's a limit . we ca n't sleep together until we 're married . your decision , and i accepted it . but now we ca n't get married ? [ chuckles ] i 'm sorry , but i 'm not the platonic type . we know what the church says , so here 's what i say . if we ca n't be a couple in every way , then we are done . gabi : look , i do n't want another lecture about nick . sami : okay , i was n't going to lecture you . you already know how i feel about the horrible things that nick did to you . gabi : what horrible things , exactly , are you talking about ? him not arresting us for trying to kill him ? sami : well , right , because he decided he 'd rather have us blackmailed and tortured instead . gabi : okay , like , making a ton of money for kate or having you hire me as a model even though ej said it was a fantastic idea . that 's a strange way to torture and blackmail people who tried to kill you . sami : first of all , we were n't trying to kill him . if you 'll recall , we were trying to get rid of a dead body so that that baby sleeping in the next room would have a mother . so that you would n't spend the rest of your life making license plates in an orange jumpsuit . gabi , do you remember why you hit him on the head with that rock ? gabi : i 'm so glad that you 're not lecturing me and that i can call you any time i want so that you can tell me how wrong i am about everything i do . sami : look , i 'm sorry , but you are wrong about nick . and the fact that you would even consider making small talk with him is absolutely crazy . gabi : know what , you 're repeating yourself , so i will too . as long as you 're with ej dimera , you are the last person in the world to say anything about nick . stefano : [ groans ] ej : what the hell are you talking about , father ? stefano : what i am talking about is your little piece on the side . ej : one , i would never ever be unfaithful to samantha , and two , abigail deveraux is a lovely girl . stefano : oh , absolutely , a lovely young woman that you were scared to death that you knocked her up . [ laughs ] you certainly dodged a bullet there . let 's keep our fingers crossed , all right , that samantha never stumbles on your tumble in the hay . [ chuckles ] now , you know better than anyone what a name she 's got , right ? [ chuckles ] aiden : well , the court made a very wise choice assigning this case to you . marlena : what we originally read as being closed off was just fear . once he got past that he began to open up . aiden : mm . well , i 'm sure you 're the one who got him past that . opened him up . marlena : well , i 've attached my card to the file . it 's a new email address , so if you need anything , you can find me . aiden : okay . uh , dr. evans . marlena : hm ? aiden : i was wondering , are you taking on any new patients ? marlena : oh . wow , i 've got a pretty heavy case load . you know what , if you refer somebody , i could make some room . aiden : great . good to know . hope : [ typing ] brady : fancy seeing you here . hope : hey , hi . i do n't know why , i get more work done here than at the station . brady : ah . are you working -- if you 're working , i can go -- hope : no , no , no . hey , look . just finished . have a seat . brady : thanks . i , um ... i wanted to talk to you about something . someone , actually . hope : shoot . brady : it 's about your niece theresa . hope : theresa ? what about her ? brady : i 've been seeing a lot of her , hope . and i heard about some problems that she had in l.a. , and i was wondering if those problems had anything to do with drugs . hope : well , i 'm not sure i feel comfortable talking about theresa 's legal problems . brady : legal problems . i 'll take that as a yes . hope : brady , if you 're worried about her past , then you should probably ask her yourself . but if you 're asking me if i think it 's a good idea you hang out with her , then -- [ phone rings ] hope : i 'm sorry . it 'll just take a second . brady : oh , no , hope , actually , um , take your call . it 's okay . hope : brady -- brady : i 'll see you later . thank you . [ phone ringing ] hope : brady , just -- it will take one -- [ sighs ] detective brady . eric : i feel like i 'm on top of all of our other problems . i 'm just not very good at this man , woman stuff , and i feel i was a better seminarian than your boyfriend . your feelings , they take me by surprise , and they should n't . nicole : amen to that . you should n't have done it , eric . you should n't have given me hope when there was n't any . eric : i do n't know that that 's true . nicole : you know the church 's rules . you knew i was married . god knows i 'm not annulment material . you had to have seen this coming . eric : okay , nicole , i want -- nicole : oh , my gosh , this is worse than having to hide my feelings from you when we worked together at the rectory . at least then i knew there was absolutely no hope . but now that i have the chance to be with the man i love , just to have it ripped away from me , that is way too much . i respect your dilemma . i really do . but you need to respect mine . man , i ca n't live like this . i 'll give you some time to think about it , but not forever . okay ? actually , not that long at all . sami : ej is nothing like that little creep . gabi : i 've heard your list of nick 's sins , and they 're absolutely nothing compared to ej . in case you 've forgotten , you should probably ask my brother . he had a swell time in the dimera mansion dungeon . or , sorry , guest room . right ? oh , now you 're gon na say that he 's changed , right ? and you did n't listen to anybody who told you he could n't , and i 'm not gon na listen to you about nick . sami : [ sighs ] uh , listen , gabi , i am just worried about you . if you let nick back into your life , i 'm afraid he 's going to hurt you again . gabi : i never said that we were getting back together . either way , the point is that it 's my decision , sami . all right ? now , i 'd like for you to go . i 'm exhausted , and i want a nap while arianna 's still sleeping . sami : [ sighs ] god , help me . nick : thank you . ej : you son of a bitch . you had me followed . stefano : i only want you to know that i am here to help you with samantha , just as i know you are going to help me with katerina . ej : if i help you with kate ... then nobody ever finds out about abigail , correct ? and no one else knows . stefano : no , no , no . it is just you , me , and abigail . dr. garcia is very loyal to me , okay ? she 'll do anything i ask her to do . ej : no , no , no , wait , wait , wait a minute . did she lie to me ? is abigail pregnant ? aiden : [ sighs ] hope : marlena . marlena . hey ! hey ! [ chuckles ] marlena , are you ignoring me ? marlena : of course not . hope : oh , i was calling your name . you seemed like you were worlds away . marlena : oh , well , maybe i was . hope : yeah ? about what ? marlena : eric and nicole . hope : eric and nicole . oh , what could you possibly have to worry about there ? marlena : mm . between us , i had a run - in with nicole today . and she -- she blew up at me , over a complete misunderstanding . hope : meaning she was dead wrong . marlena : well , no , that 's kind of not the point , but i -- i do think perhaps she 's hiding something . louis : nicole . nice to see you . nicole : right . louis : father matt and i miss you at the rectory . nicole : yes , well , i 'm sure you 'll find some other fallen woman to file for you . louis : nicole -- nicole : no , seriously , i know that you talked to eric , and i know you told him it was wrong for him to marry me , so excuse me if i do n't want to wax nostalgic about my good ol ' rectory days . louis : i hope you know this is not about judging you . nicole : well , it sure as hell feels like it . theresa : [ sighs ] you know , i just -- i want you to know that drugs have never really been a big deal for me . i mean , i do n't even like coke . [ giggles ] freaking love it . oh , mr. black . you sounded so cool and collected , but i saw your face . i saw it in your eyes when i started talking about coke . it wo n't be long before you crack . and when you do , i have you right where i want you . [ sighs ] eric : i did n't expect to see you here . brady : i did n't expect to see you either . had a lot of great memories around here , huh ? eric : yeah , i still like to come here and pray . brady : well , have at it . pray away . eric : hey , you do n't have to go . brady : i have a question for you , actually . you know i 've been seeing your cousin theresa , right ? eric : yeah , kinda figured that when i saw you together at sonny 's club . brady : what do you think of it ? honestly . eric : [ sighs ] i think as much as i love her , she has some serious problems , problems that you -- brady : problems that i -- i might have in common with her ? eric : i do n't think seeing her is a good idea for you right now . brady : no , um ... i think you 're right . stefano : [ chuckles ] no , no , no , no . there is nothing for you to worry about , because abigail is not pregnant . and dr. garcia -- well , she wo n't say a word to anyone . ej : [ hyperventilating ] just do me a favor , can we just change the subject , please ? all right ? abigail just wants this put behind her just as much as i do . stefano : have you learned nothing , my son ? hmm ? when it comes to women , nothing is certain . sami : what 's going on ? stefano : ah . ej : we were , um ... just -- just -- just talking . stefano : yes . [ chuckles ] sami : really ? seems more than that . you were tense . stefano : oh . sami : stefano and ej , you both looked kind of tense to me . and you did n't even hear me come in , so obviously it 's more -- what 's going on ? stefano : we were just discussing your fiancé 's big secret . across america , people are taking charge of gabi : i thought you 'd left . nick : well , i thought it 'd be a little awkward walking around with -- with one shoe . gabi : oh , right , sorry . nick : [ laughs ] gabi : here . here . nick : thank you . gabi : so , um ... so you heard everything that sami said . nick : i did . but more importantly , i heard everything that you said . and it meant the world to me . [ baby cries ] gabi : uh ... [ sighs ] nick : i guess we 'll -- we 'll have to wait for that nap . gabi : yeah . nick : some other time . gabi : [ chuckles ] nick : i 'll , uh ... see you soon . gabi : yeah . soon . nick : okay . sami : you tell your father that we do n't have secrets . stefano : [ chuckles ] every marriage has secrets , my dear . keeps things from getting ... dull . sami : uh , i 'm pretty sure we 're never gon na have to worry about being dull . [ sami and ej giggle ] ej : no , father 's just being provocative , as usual . i do have a little secret , but i can assure you it 's the good kind . sami : oh , really ? is it about our wedding ? ej : [ chuckles ] stefano : you could say that . ej : [ sighs ] what are you doing back , anyway ? i thought you had errands to run . sami : oh , i do . yes , i dropped off will and sonny 's wedding gifts , but then i forgot the stupid school permission form that lucas signed for allie , so i 'm back . but anyway , i have to get going again . [ smooches ] oh , um , in case there are surprises happening , i do like emeralds .

's going . carrie : it 's so sad . i have to admit , rafe , i still feel incredibly guilty about the fact that i had a hand in you losing your job at the force . i mean , if you had n't been giving me information about john , we would n't be wondering if we could pay rent and stay afloat . rafe : carrie ... i do not regret what i did . okay ? john 's family . what ? carrie : sometimes i wish that austin could have been more like you . [ both laugh ] that he could have acted with his heart , and that he would have been by my side a little bit more . rafe : i 'm sure he was . carrie : ever since john 's case , austin and i have been on opposite sides of everything . and we worked so hard to get where we are today . i never thought that ...

[ scene_break ] ej : of course , the topic of today 's debate is the economy , but you know , i really feel that it 's my duty to remind the voters that the job of mayor of salem comes with exacting moral standards . lexie : is my brother seriously going to lecture us on morals ? ej : standards that your current mayor has not always been able to live up to in his personal life . there has been marital indiscretion . and whilst these personal failings do not in and of themselves disqualify him from the position , these are certainly factors that voters should be considering when they 're deciding who to trust with the future of their city . abe : i would like to respond to my opponent 's last statement , if i may . moderator : of course , mr. mayor . abe : thank you . unlike my opponent , i do not think it 's necessary to sully the integrity of this process or this office by resorting to personal attacks . in light of mr. dimera 's last statement , i would like to point out the following -- the word `` indiscretions `` does not begin to describe the many past activities of mr. dimera , both personal and professional . and if mr. dimera would like to pursue this matter further , i would be very happy to provide details .

[ both chuckle ] yeah , i figure i could do a hell of a lot worse . [ scene_break ] sami : no ! no , will , i have no idea why you are mad at me . will : so ... typical . even when you demand that i tell you the truth ... you refuse to be honest yourself . sami : god , i do n't even know what 's happened to you . i mean , i think about all the things that we have been through . all the things that you have managed to forgive me for . and it 's never been like this . will : that 's because this is different . sami : obviously . and i do n't understand why . i do n't understand how we have managed to work through so many ... so many fights ... so many dark times , and ... and the last couple years have been so amazing . we have been so close . and your love and your support mean -- they mean so much to me . and i just want that back , will . i just want you back . will : stop ! why is that my fault ? you say that you can count on me , mom . why ca n't i count on you ? huh ? why do i always feel like i 'm the adult in this relationship ? sami : i am not blaming you . okay ? i know better than anyone the mistakes that i have made . will : mistakes ? mom , you 've made messes . messes that i am tired of cleaning up . look , you want to know why i 'm so angry with you ? it 's because you keep destroying the only real family that i have ever had . [ scene_break ] moderator : i 'd like to introduce our incumbent mayor , mr. abraham carver . [ cheers and applause ] abe : thank you . moderator : and his opponent , running for office for the first time , mr. ej dimera . [ cheers and applause ] moderator : today 's topics will be jobs and the local economy . and since both candidates have waived opening statements , we 'll get right to the first question . mr. dimera , there 's been a lot of talk about using local salem university as a means to bolster the town 's sagging economy . in what way would you use the university to those ends ? mr. dimera . ej : thank you , uh -- thank you for the question . um ... the , uh -- the university is , as you all know , a vital part of salem 's ... economic engine . it provides many jobs locally , and , in fact , could provide many more . and , logically , i think the thing to do would be to create a commission to , uh , work out how best to do that . thank you . moderator : mr . carver , would you like to respond ? abe : yes , thank you . today 's economy demands quick and decisive action . we do n't have time for commissions and studies . we need to expand the university right now . that brings jobs and construction to build the new campus buildings . and to fill those buildings , the university needs to increase enrollment , bringing students and professors to our town , which will help local businesses and grow our tax base . now , we should also immediately enact incentives to keep those students here in salem after they graduate ... so they can become the job creators and the home owners of tomorrow . [ cheers and applause ] [ scene_break ] rafe : i 'm trying to get an address for this julia woman off her phone number . carrie : great . rafe : yeah , i may have to stake out her place . carrie : i feel so bad for mrs. carlyle . to suddenly think that you do n't know your husband , or that you might not even have a marriage . rafe : yeah . well , let 's hope she 's wrong . carrie : yeah , let 's hope she 's wrong . oh , jeez , is this what you expected , rafe , when you took this job ? runaway cats and husbands ? rafe : well , adultery cases are usually what keeps p.i . 's going . carrie : it 's so sad . i have to admit , rafe , i still feel incredibly guilty about the fact that i had a hand in you losing your job at the force . i mean , if you had n't been giving me information about john , we would n't be wondering if we could pay rent and stay afloat . rafe : carrie ... i do not regret what i did . okay ? john 's family . what ? carrie : sometimes i wish that austin could have been more like you . [ both laugh ] that he could have acted with his heart , and that he would have been by my side a little bit more . rafe : i 'm sure he was . carrie : ever since john 's case , austin and i have been on opposite sides of everything . and we worked so hard to get where we are today . i never thought that ... [ sighs ] rafe : what ? carrie : i just feel so incredibly sad ... and lonely . rafe : hey ... you 're not alone . [ scene_break ] sami : i love you . i love you and your brother and your sisters . i love you more than i love my own life . will : you 're a liar , mom ! you 're -- you 're lying to me ! you do n't -- you do n't care about us . and you definitely do n't love me . the only person you care about is yourself ! what you have done is gon na tear our family apart . sami : i do n't know what you 're talking about . will : oh , stop it , mom ! i saw you ! i know what you did ! sami : what ? will : i know what you did ! i saw you having sex with ej ! last night was amazing . sami : will , no , okay . i do n't know what you think you saw ... will : stop lying to me . mom , you always lie to me . while the whole town was out searching for your son , you were having sex with ej . and that 's why we could n't find you , mom . and when i finally did ... oh , my god , it makes me sick . sami : no , will . no , it 's not what you think . it did n't -- will : oh , really , mom ? 'cause i know what i saw . you betrayed our family ! and you betrayed rafe ! do you know what you are ? sami : will ... will : you 're a whore . mom , you are nothing but a whore !

[ scene_break ] rafe : i understand what you 're going through . i do . because sami and i , we used to be such a united front , always . when we were holed up in that safe house ... it was literally us against the world . carrie : that 's a great feeling . rafe : yeah . carrie : knowing someone has your back . rafe : yeah . aside from the someone trying to kill us part , it was ... carrie : oh , well , you know what i meant . rafe : i do . carrie : it just -- it makes you feel like you can do anything . rafe : it does . it does , it -- i got ta tell you , that 's what 's so frustrating right now , because i feel like sami and i are ... just , we 're worlds apart , and i have no idea why . carrie : i 'm sorry to hear that . rafe : yeah . i used to be able to look into her eyes , and i would know exactly what she was thinking . not anymore . uh - uh . i ca n't even believe i 'm saying this , but part of me thinks maybe i 'm better off not knowing . [ scene_break ] sami : will , you listen to me . i did n't know what i was doing . i was -- i was lost in my grief . i thought that johnny was dead . i thought i was never gon na see my little boy again . will : so naturally your first instinct was to have sex with ej . sami : no ! okay ? no . it was n't like that at all . it was n't -- it 's not like i wanted him , okay ? i was heartbroken , and i was devastated , and i was -- i was just trying to ... i do n't know , numb the pain . not have any of it be real . i ca n't even begin to explain to you what it feels like to think that you have lost your child . will : you 're making excuses , mom . stop making excuses . sami : i am not doing that . will , i know what i did is unforgivable . will : mm - hmm . sami : i have felt the guilt and the regret with every breath i take since the moment that it happened . i will never forgive myself . i will never stop torturing myself for what i have done . will : am i supposed to feel sorry for you after what you did to my family , and -- and after what you did to rafe ? sami : will ... you 're not gon na tell him , are you ? will : you know , part of me would -- would love ... to tell him . to see him leave you , you know ? see him walk out that door and never look back . sami : please do n't make this thing worse than it already is . will : lucky for you i love my brother and i love my sisters . and i do n't want them to lose out on the family that i always wanted . on the family that you were never able to give me . so it 's your lucky day . i 'm not gon na say anything for now . sami : thank you . will : but just in case i have n't made myself completely clear , i hate you . and i always will . and i want you out of my life for good . we were skipping stones and now i 'm letting go . sami : no , no . i am not gon na let you get rid of me that easily . i am your mother , and i love you , and i will always be a part of your life . will : how can you say that ? you 've never been there for me . you were too busy chasing after some guy who did n't love you to even care about how i was doing . sami : i do love you . will , i love you so much . will : really ? do you even know ... what is happening to me ? sami : no . no , i do n't because you wo n't talk to me . because -- because you have been shutting me out . but that does n't have to happen anymore . now that everything is out in the open , we can talk about things . i can be there for you . i can make it different this time if you will just please give me one more chance , will , i swear to god , i will -- will : too late , mom . too late . and thanks to ej , i never have to live under this roof again and listen to your lies every day . sami : if you know what ej and i did , then why are you working for him ? you must hate him too . will : i do . i went to him , and i told him what i saw , but he surprised me . i was looking for a way to get out of salem so i 'd never have to see you again . but he gave me a way to stay here and -- and start my life over . sami : he turned you against me . will : no . you did that all on your own . [ scene_break ] ej : of course , the topic of today 's debate is the economy , but you know , i really feel that it 's my duty to remind the voters that the job of mayor of salem comes with exacting moral standards . lexie : is my brother seriously going to lecture us on morals ? ej : standards that your current mayor has not always been able to live up to in his personal life . there has been marital indiscretion . and whilst these personal failings do not in and of themselves disqualify him from the position , these are certainly factors that voters should be considering when they 're deciding who to trust with the future of their city . abe : i would like to respond to my opponent 's last statement , if i may . moderator : of course , mr. mayor . abe : thank you . unlike my opponent , i do not think it 's necessary to sully the integrity of this process or this office by resorting to personal attacks . in light of mr. dimera 's last statement , i would like to point out the following -- the word `` indiscretions `` does not begin to describe the many past activities of mr. dimera , both personal and professional . and if mr. dimera would like to pursue this matter further , i would be very happy to provide details . [ scene_break ] rafe : oh , hey , i think i got a lead on julia . carrie : really ? what is it ? rafe : last name is percy . got an address . carrie : [ gasps ] rafe : i 'm going to check this out . carrie : uh , wait . do you mind if i go with you ? i know i 'm not a trained p.i . , but i really want to help , and i have nothing else to do here . rafe : i would be more than happy to have you along . [ scene_break ] will : you should know better than anyone the hatred and the disgust that i feel for you right now . sami : what ? will : carrying around a terrible secret ? knowing what a despicable person your own mother is ? you know firsthand what that does to somebody , right ? sami : no . will : [ derisive laugh ] sami : no , will , what you think is happening here is not what 's happening . will : what ... history repeating itself ? it seems that way to me . sami : what happened with me and ej is nothing like what my mother did . it is n't like it at all ! will : yeah , you 're right ! because it was worse ! at least grandma loved john ! what you and ej did ... it was disgusting ! it was filthy . sami : will , i 'm so sorry . i 'm so sorry for what -- will : do n't ! sami : what i 've done to you . i did n't mean to -- will : just stop , okay ? you always said that what grandma did ruined your life by tearing apart your family . and you just did the same thing , and you ruined mine ! sami : no . no . will : yes , mom ! congratulations . congratulations . you 've become what you always hated about your own mother . sami : no , i 'm not gon na let -- no ! will : do n't touch me !

[ scene_break ] nicole : listen , i still think you have a chance of pulling out a win . okay , yeah , so what , we started a little rocky , but you really pulled through strong . ej : no , i know i did fine . i 'm just trying to figure out how abe managed to get those questions . [ cell phone rings ] nicole : it 's the research department . the results for the first internet polls are coming through . [ scene_break ] jennifer : [ gasps ] 67 % of the voting public feels you won the debate . [ women cheering , laughing ] lexie : abe , i knew that you could do it . [ laughter ] jennifer : whoo - hoo ! yay ! [ scene_break ] rafe : wow . carrie : i 'm so not cut out for this line of work . when mr. carlyle showed up at julia 's office , i felt like someone punched me in the stomach . i thought for sure that they were having an affair . rafe : my god , i wish i could see the look on mrs. carlyle 's face when she finds out that julia percy is the surprise - party planner for her 30th- anniversary party . carrie : oh , it 's so romantic , but probably ca n't be a surprise anymore . rafe : yeah , well , it 's still the best present she 's ever got . carrie : oh , god , ed is still so in love with her , even after 30 years . i 'm so glad things worked out like this . rafe : right ? you know , we did something really important today . we did n't put away a drug dealer or anything like that , but we saved a marriage . feels pretty fantastic . carrie : and you know what , aside from the missing cats , this was our first real job . we actually got paid ! rafe : oh , my god , we did ! we got paid ! carrie : that 's so -- well done . rafe : we did it .

[ scene_break ] finn : clearly , this is n't a good time . hayden : how perceptive . finn : yes . i hope they find your husband , and that he 's all right . hayden : wait . you came all this way . you might as well tell me why . finn : may i ? i came to give you this . hayden : the check i gave you ? finn : i ca n't accept that . hayden : okay . well , i should probably insist that you keep this , but , as it happens , i 'm strapped for cash at the moment , and god only knows the condition of my husband 's finances , so ... thank you . finn : yeah , thank you for the gesture . you know , you could have just mailed this to me or simply just ripped it up , but you took the launch all the way out here to hand it to me in person . why ? finn : yes . `` why , `` indeed . uh , i wanted to see you . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : nikolas is a really good friend of mine . we 've known each other since we were kids , and ever since hayden entered his life i 've been very concerned . jordan : why , exactly ? elizabeth : well , she 's been nothing but a con and a fraud ever since she came to port charles . she married nikolas under false pretenses when she lied about her identity . i 'm sure you 're heard by now . jordan : yes , that she 's rachel berlin , the daughter of the ponzi guy . the word 's all around town . elizabeth : well , all this time , she 's been evading the feds , but her past is finally catching up with her , which gives hayden a motive to kill nikolas . [ scene_break ] nathan : [ clears throat ] maxie : we 're just really glad that you 're here . [ laughs ] nathan and i are eager to get him out of this place . nathan : uh - huh .

[ scene_break ] carly : are you honestly accusing dr. finn of poisoning my brother by injecting a surgical muscle relaxant into his neck ? dr. obrecht : why not ? carly : is she kidding ? dr. obrecht : whoever did this is obviously comfortable acting outside the confines of the law . carly : oh , we all know someone like that , do n't we ? dr. obrecht : indeed . it reminds me of the evening two interlopers came snooping around the records room . carly : [ scoffs ] oh . dr. obrecht : who were they ? oh , yes ! you and dr. finn . carly : oh , yes ! because we all know that sneaking a peek at medical records is a gateway to attempted murder ! you poisoned duke lavery . dr. obrecht : i did no such thing ! it 's not my fault he drank from anna devane 's glass . carly : okay , you know what ? i do n't care . i do n't care . this does n't make sense to me . lucas did n't have an enemy in the world . i mean , he was n't even supposed to be here yesterday . he was supposed to be getting married at the nurses ' ball . what ? what is that ? monica : uh , carly , we 're beginning to think that this might not be an isolated incident . in the past couple of weeks , two other patients have died under rather suspicious circumstances . granted , they were both elderly , but they did have unexpected and sudden heart attacks . carly : old people die all the time , a - and people have heart attacks out of the blue , monica . dr. obrecht : both patients were also under dr. finn 's care . monica : [ groans ] carly : okay . if i believed for one second that dr. finn was going around killing his patients , which , by the way , i do n't , it does n't make any sense to me why he or anyone else would want to kill lucas . dr. obrecht : perhaps your brother was n't the intended target . [ scene_break ] jordan : are you saying that nikolas found out who hayden was , then threatened to end the marriage , and that 's why she wanted to kill him ? elizabeth : [ sighs ] if only it were that simple . jordan : okay , then , what was hayden 's alleged motive ? elizabeth : hayden denies having any involvement in her father 's crimes . she says she was n't in it , she never saw the billions of dollars that he stole . in fact , she was supposedly left destitute . jordan : `` supposedly `` ? elizabeth : she 's been lying this whole time . jordan : okay , are you saying that [ sighs ] hayden knew about her father 's activities ? elizabeth : i ca n't say for certain that she was involved in the ponzi scheme , but i do know for a fact that she profited for it . jordan : how so ? elizabeth : [ sighs ] raymond berlin 's assets were confiscated by the government , except hayden was able to take care of some very valuable diamonds . and they were registered ... they 're traceable . and if they end up on the market , they 'll lead straight back to her . jordan : how do you even know this ? elizabeth : nikolas found the diamonds . he sold one , and when hayden found out , she was furious . jordan : okay , uh , this is a very interesting ... wrinkle , and it does give hayden a motive . but i 'm curious -- why are you involved ? [ scene_break ] hayden : okay , so why did you want to see me ? finn : i owe you an apology . hayden : you do ? finn : yes , i -- [ sighs ] you sound surprised . hayden : i 'm just not used to being on the receiving end of an apology . finn : you ... told me you did n't know anything about your father 's illegal activities , and i should have taken your word for it . you 're not responsible for what he did . hayden : thank you . finn : mm . i acted like a jerk . hayden : kind of . finn : okay . and i did n't want to leave things like that . i also realized i did n't answer your question . hayden : what question ? finn : you had asked me about the foundation . it was set up to fight a disease that was killing a lot of people . hayden : including someone who was very important to you . finn : my wife . hayden : oh . i 'm so sorry . finn : today would have been her birthday , and that 's why i needed to come out and give you that . she would n't have wanted me to keep it . knowing her , she would 've preferred i make a more altruistic gesture in order to honor her memory . hayden : well , that 's very gracious of you to tell me . i 'm sorry . i - i did n't mean to upset you . finn : not upset me , but , um ... i should , uh , go . hayden : no let me at least get you a glass of water . that 's what i -- finn : no , i do n't really need a glass of water . hayden : please , i , um -- finn : [ grunts as he falls down clutching his chest ] [ scene_break ] dr. obrecht : whoever attacked lucas did so in your mother 's room while she was a patient . carly : okay , you 're now trying to tell me that whoever did this was trying to kill my mother ? dr. obrecht : if it 's any consolation , i do n't think it was personal . from all appearances , it would seem the attacker was trying to dispatch your mother using the same method as he did the others . monica : or she . dr. obrecht : as he did the others . carly : hey , even if this is true , you do n't have any actual proof that dr. finn is responsible . monica : we have no reason to suspect dr. finn . dr. obrecht : that is where you 're wrong . i spoke to one of his higher - ups at his former place of employment . it seems he left under suspicious circumstances . carly : which were ? dr. obrecht : uh , on that subject , the doctor was frustratingly vague . carly : s - so , really , you do n't have anything on dr. finn . dr. obrecht : i did learn that there was a rumor of drug addiction . monica : oh , this is preposterous . dr. finn has a sterling reputation . he was never , ever involved with drugs . carly : [ sighs ] monica . monica : and now , if you will excuse me , i 'm gon na go talk to my son . ah . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i 'm involved for a couple of reasons . i 'm not gon na deny that i despise hayden . jordan : well , i gathered that . elizabeth : but whether or not ... nikolas is still alive , i want her away from that family , especially spencer . jordan : fair enough . elizabeth : and the other thing i - is i know the police are convinced that jason morgan had something to do with nikolas ' disappearance -- jordan : jason has not been arrested yet . elizabeth : well , are you looking at any other suspects ? jordan : we 're looking for the truth . elizabeth : [ sighs ] jason and i have a son together , but nikolas has been my closest friend . at times , he 's been my only friend , and i just want whoever hurt him to pay . jordan : even if that means it 's jason morgan ? elizabeth : jason did n't do this , and that 's why i wanted you to know every last detail about hayden barnes , rachel berlin -- whatever her name is . jordan : look , i appreciate you telling me all of this , and while hayden does have motive , she has neither means nor opportunity . elizabeth : what do you mean ? jordan : hayden has an alibi for the time of nikolas ' disappearance . jason does n't . [ scene_break ] monica : i heard what happened at wyndemere . is there any sign of nikolas ? jason : hm . sam : um , not as far as we know yet . monica : well , have you seen lucas ? sam : i have . i just came from the icu . it 's -- it 's really hard seeing him like that , not being able to move or talk . monica : i know , sam . please ... we are doing everything we can for him . sam : i know you are , and i thank you so much for that . i 'm gon na touch base with my sisters . um , i 'll be back . monica : okay . jason : okay . so , i brought sam to visit with lucas ... monica : [ sighs ] jason : ... but i need to talk to you about danny .

[ scene_break ] griffin : i 'm not sure what advice i can give you without more specific knowledge on the situation . given that it 's important enough to keep from maxie , i 'm not sure i 'm the person you want to share it with . nathan : see , but you 're exactly the person that i want to share it with . you 're a priest . griffin : are you catholic ? nathan : uh , no . so , i guess it 's not an official confession , but ... i was hoping i could count on your discretion . i needed to tell someone . griffin : well , you have n't really told me -- nathan : i needed to at least admit out loud that i was carrying this around with me . you wo n't tell maxie , will you ? maxie : okay , i got the paperwork started . we can get you out of here as soon as father griffin / dr. munro gives us the okay . griffin : nathan is fit as a fiddle . i will , uh , let admitting know that you 're officially being released . nathan : thanks . maxie : thanks . oh , my gosh , okay , so , um , i was n't sure what you were gon na want to wear on the day you got released from the hospital , so i brought you a lot of options . nathan : ah [ clears throat ] maxie : [ sighs ] nathan : i think that , uh , sweatpants are gon na be the way to go . maxie : okay . and it 's okay if you want to change in front of me . nathan : i think that might distract the both of us . maxie : mm , that 's a good point . nathan : mm . maxie : in fact ...

[ sighs ] i feel better already . i feel like 100 bucks . nothing that 15 minutes across choppy waters wo n't cure .

[ sighs ] i feel better already . i feel like 100 bucks . nothing that 15 minutes across choppy waters wo n't cure .

[ scene_break ] jason : [ sighs ] so , what do you think ? sam : i think it 's typical for sonny to set us up at the safe house with no questions asked . jason : [ sighs ] actually , i found this place originally . sam : really ? jason : it 's quiet -- yeah -- no neighbors . then , we bought it through a holding company that sonny had . cops never traced it back to him , and if i remember correctly , it 's always fully stocked . sam : all right , i think we should review everything we already know . jason : look at you . sam : what ? jason : eager to get to work . sam : i am eager to prove that you 're innocent , so we can pick our son up from your mother 's , although , i 'm sure he 's having a pretty good time , because he loves that pup ... py -- i 'm sorry . i know that 's a sore subject . jason : no , it 's fine . it 's fine . taking the puppy to the quartermaines was a perfect solution . jake loves the dog . danny loves the dog . it 's -- [ sighs ] sam : what ? jason : i 've got to call elizabeth . i was supposed to see jake tonight . that 's not gon na happen clearly .

[ scene_break ] hayden : commissioner , what can i do for you ? jordan : i 'm sorry to show up unannounced . i just -- i have a few more questions for you . hayden : well , i 've already told you everything i know about nikolas ' disappearance . jordan : actually , i 'm not here about your husband 's disappearance . hayden : no ? oh . okay , then , why ? jordan : well , i have reason to believe that may be lying to , or , well , at the very least , withholding evidence from the federal government . hayden : excuse me ? what would i be hiding ? jordan : well , it seems that you might be in possession of several diamonds of significant value , and those gems have been registered . and they can be traced back to your father , raymond berlin . hayden : trust me -- i am not in possession of any diamonds . look , i 've already told the feds that i did not knowingly benefit from any money my father bilked from his clients , nor did i retain any of his property . jordan : i 'm aware that 's been your story . hayden : it 's the truth , but if you do n't believe me , feel free to call the fbi . jordan : oh , no , that wo n't be necessary . they 're already here .

[ scene_break ] daniel : melanie ... trust me , please . i am happier than i have been in a very long time . i 've got a daughter ... who i love ... and tomorrow i am gon na have a new wife ... whom i adore . melanie : okay . daniel : okay ? melanie : okay . i just -- i really hope ... daniel : what ? melanie : that chloe does n't hurt you . daniel : she wo n't . it 's not gon na happen . philip : damn right . no way can chloe blow this . she just ca n't . [ scene_break ] chloe : i just do n't know what to do to stop carly . i mean , she 's so strong and -- and so confident , and daniel trusts her , and bo trusts her . vivian : oh , i know . she 's a formidable adversary , but she does have her weaknesses , her demons . chloe : like what ? vivian : well , for one thing , she has claustrophobia . just a little bit of stress , and , well , she does n't deal with that very well . chloe : you mean ... like the story about how you buried her alive ? vivian : oh , ancient history -- nobody cares about that . no , i was thinking about the time when i got her to take a specific elevator . she was trapped , and , well , it was just moments before she was dissolved into a puddle . chloe : so that 's what you think i should do -- just get her into an elevator ? vivian : ah , well , it 's a start . i assume you have your mobile with you . chloe : uh , yes , i do . vivian : okay . then i want you to put this number ... into your phone . chloe : whose number is it ? vivian : let 's just say it 's someone who will help you give carly exactly what she deserves . [ scene_break ] nicole : [ scoffs ] amazing . you are still hung up on thinking that i 'm the one who attacked you and that you 're gon na get me for framing arianna -- wow . ej : i know you , nikki . i know you very well . nicole : yeah , well , i know you too , and you are dead wrong about me . ej : am i ? so tell me something -- how is it that you always seem to be right in the thick of all these mugging stories ? nicole : i 'm a reporter now . ej : [ laughing ] sorry . still kind of funny to me . i thought you were still in love with brady . nicole : yeah , so ? he loves ari . ej : right . well , when has a man being in love with another woman ever stopped you ? see , the way i see it , this is very simple for you . you commit a crime ... then you set her up to take the fall . nicole : hey , i was with brady when roman was attacked . the police cleared me . ej : yes , and i 've been thinking about that too . see , the way i remember things , when i was attacked , there was definitely an accomplice . nicole : yeah , yeah , yeah . and it was probably me . ej : probably . nicole : yeah . there 's only one problem with that , sherlock . whoever 's doing this is a serial mugger -- always uses the same m.o . i have a solid alibi when brady was attacked too . and if you 're right about arianna , then she 's my alibi when justin was attacked . but you know what ? i 'll check and get back to you about the dates . well , who knows ? you know what ? maybe i 'll end up saving arianna after all . but it 'll be for her sake ... not yours ... genius . [ footsteps departing ] nicole : [ grunts angrily ] ej ! i am not gon na let you ruin this for me -- no way . [ scene_break ] daniel : okay , well , the details are still in flux , but i 'll call you first thing in the morning and , uh , let you know . melanie : how many people are gon na be there ? daniel : oh , just some -- some family , close friends . brady 's gon na be my best man , and here 's the kicker . philip , i 'm hoping you 'll walk chloe down the aisle . philip : hmm ? melanie : hmm . i 'll bet he can do that without falling , right ? philip : [ chuckles ] yeah . i mean , yeah , if that 's what chloe wants . daniel : it 's what we both want . it makes sense , right ? considering how close you and chloe are . philip : well , sure . sure . daniel : great . all right , well , you know what ? i got to run . uh , i 'll call you in the morning , okay ? melanie : okay . bye . philip : congratulations . daniel : thanks , man . thank you . philip : hey , you 're not upset with me that i think they should get married , are you ? do n't be upset . melanie : no , no . i 'm -- i 'm glad , i 'm glad . i just ... maybe daniel 's right . chloe 's a little insecure . maybe getting married will help her out . philip : but ? melanie : mm . i just wish i knew what was bugging me , you know ? uh , it 's -- it 's not that it 's happening so fast , not ... really . i just -- i ca n't shake this feeling that she 's gon na break his heart . philip : why would she do that ? i mean , she is nuts . daniel is everything to her , okay ? melanie : yeah , for now . [ scene_break ] chloe : you wo n't tell me whose number this is ? vivian : the man 's name is irrelevant . it 's probably an alias anyway . just think of him as a valuable contact . chloe : so he 's the one who 's gon na be helping me , not you . vivian : ahh . yes , but you see , i 'm still a partner , a silent one . chloe : okay . vivian : oh ... excellent . chloe : okay , so i 'm gon na call this man , and then what happens ? vivian : [ sighs ] your only job is to see that carly gets into the exact elevator at the exact time , and he will take care of the rest . chloe : so i get her into an elevator , and ... will you stop being so damn cryptic ? i 'm not stupid , vivian . i 'm gon na trick carly to get into some elevator , and then what ? how is that gon na keep her away from daniel ?

[ scene_break ] nicole : [ sighs ] damn it . if arianna gave me brady 's check the night justin was attacked , then this whole frame - up was for nothing . please tell me she got the dates wrong .

[ scene_break ] chloe : well , if you are not interested in daniel , then what are you doing here ? why are you always poking your nose in our business ? what the hell do you want from me ? carly : what i want -- all i want is for you to tell daniel the truth . daniel : hey . carly : hi . um ... about what i did earlier , i was -- i was intrusive , and i had no right to weigh in . daniel : is this an apology ? carly : yeah , if you 'll accept it . what goes on between you and chloe should stay between you and chloe . daniel : good . thank you . carly : you 're your own man , and you 're a good man . and if you still want to have an early wedding with chloe , then so be it . daniel : that 's still what i want . carly : great . so when do you tell the bride - to - be ? daniel : i already told her . [ scene_break ] vivian : chloe ... surely i do n't need to spell out all the details . chloe : vivian , you keep talking in all these vague generalities . i need something concrete . vivian : you came to me ... right ? surely you know that i 'm not a lightweight when it comes to making things happen . chloe : yeah , but what things ? look , i have to make sure that carly ca n't -- she 's out to ruin my life , and i have to stop her . while locking her in some elevator , yeah , it 'll make her miserable , but what else ? what else could it p -- oh . o - oh , that . that man is n't just gon na stall the elevator , is he ? vivian : no . he 's going to do what needs to be done .

[ scene_break ] vivian : chloe ... we have a mutual enemy . carly manning hurt me terribly . now she 's trying to hurt you . am i right ? carly : i 'm sorry . i ca n't hurt daniel again by keeping another secret from him . so you have a choice . you decide how you want him to find out -- from you or from me . chloe : i do n't have a choice . she 'll ruin everything . vivian : mm - hmm . that 's what she lives for -- hurting others , taking away the people you love . but you leave the details to me . she 's not going to win this time .

[ door opens ] brady : yeah , i 'll be -- i 'll be right there . [ scene_break ] nicole : so i am arianna 's alibi -- wow . [ chuckles ] that is weird . ej : is n't it ? nicole : hmm . ej : it seems that at about the time justin was being attacked , she was giving you a check of some description from brady . i have n't quite established yet whether it 's , uh , blackmail , services rendered . nicole : hey , you son of a bitch , that -- ej : the point being ... she remembers giving it to you . i 'm quite sure brady will remember writing it . so now all i need you to do is just corroborate that you received it . nicole : yeah . i 'll do anything i can to help . ej : good . so happy to hear that . i will also do anything i can to help , which not only means getting her off ... but also means finding out who it was that attacked me ... and finding out who set her up . see , i think that person 's you , nikki . and i think you are going back to prison . [ scene_break ] daniel : melanie ... trust me , please . i am happier than i have been in a very long time . i 've got a daughter ... who i love ... and tomorrow i am gon na have a new wife ... whom i adore . melanie : okay . daniel : okay ? melanie : okay . i just -- i really hope ... daniel : what ? melanie : that chloe does n't hurt you . daniel : she wo n't . it 's not gon na happen . philip : damn right . no way can chloe blow this . she just ca n't . [ scene_break ] chloe : i just do n't know what to do to stop carly . i mean , she 's so strong and -- and so confident , and daniel trusts her , and bo trusts her . vivian : oh , i know . she 's a formidable adversary , but she does have her weaknesses , her demons . chloe : like what ? vivian : well , for one thing , she has claustrophobia . just a little bit of stress , and , well , she does n't deal with that very well . chloe : you mean ... like the story about how you buried her alive ? vivian : oh , ancient history -- nobody cares about that . no , i was thinking about the time when i got her to take a specific elevator . she was trapped , and , well , it was just moments before she was dissolved into a puddle . chloe : so that 's what you think i should do -- just get her into an elevator ? vivian : ah , well , it 's a start . i assume you have your mobile with you . chloe : uh , yes , i do . vivian : okay . then i want you to put this number ... into your phone . chloe : whose number is it ? vivian : let 's just say it 's someone who will help you give carly exactly what she deserves . [ scene_break ] nicole : [ scoffs ] amazing . you are still hung up on thinking that i 'm the one who attacked you and that you 're gon na get me for framing arianna -- wow . ej : i know you , nikki . i know you very well . nicole : yeah , well , i know you too , and you are dead wrong about me . ej : am i ? so tell me something -- how is it that you always seem to be right in the thick of all these mugging stories ? nicole : i 'm a reporter now . ej : [ laughing ] sorry . still kind of funny to me . i thought you were still in love with brady . nicole : yeah , so ? he loves ari . ej : right . well , when has a man being in love with another woman ever stopped you ? see , the way i see it , this is very simple for you . you commit a crime ... then you set her up to take the fall . nicole : hey , i was with brady when roman was attacked . the police cleared me . ej : yes , and i 've been thinking about that too . see , the way i remember things , when i was attacked , there was definitely an accomplice . nicole : yeah , yeah , yeah . and it was probably me . ej : probably . nicole : yeah . there 's only one problem with that , sherlock . whoever 's doing this is a serial mugger -- always uses the same m.o . i have a solid alibi when brady was attacked too . and if you 're right about arianna , then she 's my alibi when justin was attacked . but you know what ? i 'll check and get back to you about the dates . well , who knows ? you know what ? maybe i 'll end up saving arianna after all . but it 'll be for her sake ... not yours ... genius . [ footsteps departing ] nicole : [ grunts angrily ] ej ! i am not gon na let you ruin this for me -- no way . [ scene_break ] daniel : okay , well , the details are still in flux , but i 'll call you first thing in the morning and , uh , let you know . melanie : how many people are gon na be there ? daniel : oh , just some -- some family , close friends . brady 's gon na be my best man , and here 's the kicker . philip , i 'm hoping you 'll walk chloe down the aisle . philip : hmm ? melanie : hmm . i 'll bet he can do that without falling , right ? philip : [ chuckles ] yeah . i mean , yeah , if that 's what chloe wants . daniel : it 's what we both want . it makes sense , right ? considering how close you and chloe are . philip : well , sure . sure . daniel : great . all right , well , you know what ? i got to run . uh , i 'll call you in the morning , okay ? melanie : okay . bye . philip : congratulations . daniel : thanks , man . thank you . philip : hey , you 're not upset with me that i think they should get married , are you ? do n't be upset . melanie : no , no . i 'm -- i 'm glad , i 'm glad . i just ... maybe daniel 's right . chloe 's a little insecure . maybe getting married will help her out . philip : but ? melanie : mm . i just wish i knew what was bugging me , you know ? uh , it 's -- it 's not that it 's happening so fast , not ... really . i just -- i ca n't shake this feeling that she 's gon na break his heart . philip : why would she do that ? i mean , she is nuts . daniel is everything to her , okay ? melanie : yeah , for now . [ scene_break ] chloe : you wo n't tell me whose number this is ? vivian : the man 's name is irrelevant . it 's probably an alias anyway . just think of him as a valuable contact . chloe : so he 's the one who 's gon na be helping me , not you . vivian : ahh . yes , but you see , i 'm still a partner , a silent one . chloe : okay . vivian : oh ... excellent . chloe : okay , so i 'm gon na call this man , and then what happens ? vivian : [ sighs ] your only job is to see that carly gets into the exact elevator at the exact time , and he will take care of the rest . chloe : so i get her into an elevator , and ... will you stop being so damn cryptic ? i 'm not stupid , vivian . i 'm gon na trick carly to get into some elevator , and then what ? how is that gon na keep her away from daniel ?

[ scene_break ] nicole : [ sighs ] damn it . if arianna gave me brady 's check the night justin was attacked , then this whole frame - up was for nothing . please tell me she got the dates wrong .

jax : i would be happy to give you and abby a job at the hotel , or perhaps in my corporate offices . carly : i already offered michael and abby a job at the hotel . they turned me down . jax : yes , but that was before edward came into the picture , right ? carly : hmm . well , sounds great . working for you , michael would be away from the quartermaines and away from sonny 's business . it 's a perfect solution . except i do n't trust you anymore . [ scene_break ] jason : i 'm not being very helpful , am i ? abby : actually , you defined what i 've been struggling with . i care about michael . i want him to have a good life . even if i 'm not in it . jason : at this point , michael will tell anyone who will listen that you 're the best thing in his life . abby : did you love someone when you were michael 's age ? jason : if i did , i do n't remember . abby : which proves my point . jason : no , i was a special circumstance . but i definitely remember the first time i fell in love , and she changed my life . abby : but you 're not together . jason : no . abby : can i ask why ? i mean , i do n't mean to pry . but i would really like to know . jason : it 's kind of ironic . we broke up over michael .

[ scene_break ] jax : i love your kids . i 've always wanted the best for michael and morgan and it 's totally unfair to imply otherwise . carly : i 'm not implying . i 'm saying it straight out . i do n't trust you . and i have every reason not to . you lied to my face . you tried to get permanent sole custody of josslyn . you showed up in this house to take her away and never bring her back , jax . tonight you set it up so i could walk into your hotel room and see brenda holding my daughter just so i could freak out . and i did n't freak out , by the way . so i 'm sorry , now you 're offering michael a job when you have n't talked to him in two months ? i 'm a little concerned . jax : i 'm trying to help , ok ? that 's it . carly : no , you 're not . you 're trying to look good in family court by offering my son a job . jax : look , i know the quartermaines very well . edward is a manipulator . he will make your life miserable . working for sonny 's out of the question . so working for me , that 's the perfect middle ground . carly : and totally self serving and you know it . michael : oh , stop , stop , stop , both of you . look , jax , as far as the job goes , thanks , but no thanks . if you really want to help me out , you 'll agree to joint custody of josslyn . [ scene_break ] jason : how much do you know about what happened when michael was a baby ? abby : he 's told me a little bit . his biological father was a screw - up , i guess . his mom fell in love with sonny , and sonny was able to get michael away from the quartermaines so that he could adopt him . and obviously you played a really big part in that , but i do n't know any details . jason : well , that screw - up was my brother . half - brother , aj . abby : is michael like him at all ? jason : no . no , not at all . abby : well , then , you and your brother are n't very much alike , either . because michael 's like you . jason : aj got carly pregnant when she was with somebody else . and then when she was ready to have michael , aj and the other guy wanted to take michael away from carly so carly lied and said that i was the dad . and i went along with it . abby : and your girlfriend did n't like that , hence the break - up . jason : it 's a little more complicated than that , but i lied . and i took my brother 's son , and losing her was one of the consequences . abby : why 'd you do it ? jason : because i really thought i was saving michael . i mean , the reason aj was the way he was from all this pressure that the quartermaines put on him . and i did n't want that for michael . i did n't want him lying or feeling like he had to please everybody or feeling like he was never good enough like aj felt . abby : so why do n't you stop michael from going to elq ? jason : because michael 's not a kid anymore . and i think he can handle himself . and you know what , he might like elq and maybe he can be what edward needs him to be . but if he 's not , i have faith in him that he can walk away . abby : the way you talk about your brother , i mean , it sounds like you regret what happened . jason : i regret how it ended . abby : well , maybe you sending michael back to edward is your way of apologizing . you know , of showing that you 're sorry that you ever took him in the first place . [ scene_break ] jax : look , michael , i know how much you love your little sister . but do you really want her growing up the way you did ? surrounded by the violence ? michael : the worst thing that happened to me growing up was the custody fight between my mom and my dad . i would have nightmares . thinking about standing in on the trial , having to choose one person over the other , and it made me sick . which is why i was always trying to get you and dad back together , 'cause i did n't want to choose who i wanted to live with . jax : well , i 'm sure your mother hated putting you through that , but she did it to keep you safe , which is what i 'm trying to do for josslyn right now . michael : you put josslyn through a custody fight and you 'll be hurting her a lot more than sharing her with my mom . jax : when she 's old enough , i 'll explain it to her . michael : it 'll be too late . josslyn needs my mom now , like kristina needed my dad when she was little . but you know what , he was n't there for her and she 's still paying the price for that . do n't do that to josslyn . just be a good dad . give her a stable home instead of constantly trying to take her mother away from her . jax : i 'm not taking her away from carly . she can see her whenever she wants , michael . michael : josslyn deserves better than that . so you 're going to shuffle her around all the time like i was for years . she does n't need you attacking my mom and trying to say how bad of a mother she is when she 's not . jax : that 's not what i 'm trying to do . michael : yeah , it is . yeah , it is . and you know it 's not true , but you 're going to say it no matter who gets hurt , just so you win . look , you 're always saying how much better you are than my dad . but my dad and my mom were able to work out a compromise . they put their own problems aside and they put their kids first . when are you going to do that with josslyn ? jax : that 's what i 'm doing right now , michael . everything i 'm doing right now is for josslyn . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : why ca n't i show the court this test ? what 's wrong with this one ? lucky : the results are suspect because you submitted the samples . see , for all the court knows , you could have submitted nikolas ' dna and claimed it was mine . elizabeth : i would never do that ! lucky : i know that , but the court does n't . you know , i 'm just explaining the legalities of it . elizabeth : ok , well then why ca n't i just explain to the judge that helena tampered with the first two tests ? lucky : you can explain it , but it does n't prove anything . we do n't have any proof . elizabeth : aiden is my son , too . [ sighs ] really ? i mean , really ? i could end up in court over this ? lucky : listen , i do n't think it 's going to come to that , ok ? i know nikolas , and he cares about aiden . he 's going to do what 's right for him . so i 'm going to go over there , ok ? i 'm going to go over there and i 'm going to talk to him .

[ scene_break ] dante : look , i know you ca n't tell me anything , even if you do know something about this friend of a friend . lupe : a lot of people come through here . dante : what if i were to ask you for some advice ? but it 's about my girl . lupe : the girl in the yankees jersey . dante : yeah . i 'm trying to reach out to her , but she 's distant , you can say . lupe : if this girl is cheating on you , she 's a fool . dante : thank you . but no , it 's nothing like that . i mean , i 'd be the fool if i let her go . i mean , she 's wonderful . she 's smart and funny and beautiful and not as tough as she thinks she is , which is kind of why i 'm concerned about her . but i do n't want to come across like i 'm controlling her . i just want to help her , support her . lupe : but you are n't with her now . so she must have run away . dante : she 's looking for something that is n't there . she 's got these ideas ; these illusions that she can fix all her family 's problems . i mean , she quit her job . she started this new business that she borrowed money from a relative to pay for , which is never a good idea . and then , on top of that , she refused to go to france with me . lupe : are you sure there is n't another man ? dante : hmm , i 'm positive . she left for other reasons . lupe : keep telling yourself that . dante : hey , she may even find what she 's looking for . but i 'm worried about , if she does find it , it 's going to break her heart . and i want to make sure that does n't happen to her . i want her to know just how much i love her . lupe : if i could answer that question , i would n't be here . if you 'll excuse me . dante : yeah , yeah , of course . lupe : what ? javier : i have a job for you upstairs . [ scene_break ] carly : i think i made a really big mistake . jason : ok , what do you need me to do ? carly : i do n't need you to fix anything . i do n't need you to cover anything up . i just , i need a second opinion . jason : great . what ? carly : obviously i 'm not happy that michael 's going to be spending his summer at elq . jason : yeah , i know , you told me that . carly : so i told that to michael , too . i just wanted michael to understand that edward could be biased , and if family history comes up , that edward may slant the story and make edward sound good and me sound bad and that i just do n't think that michael should be working at elq . jason : ok , so far i 'm not hearing anything too terrible . carly : then jax showed up , ok ? jason : right . carly : jax heard that michael was going to be working at elq , he offered to put abby and michael to work for him . jason : yeah , but i do n't see michael working for jax when he 's trying to take josslyn away . carly : i know , that 's what michael said and i did n't do anything to stop it . jason : so where is the mistake ? carly : if michael went to work for jax , the worst thing that could happen is jax will bring it up in a custody hearing saying that he 's still a great stepfather , providing employment for his ex - con stepson . that 's it . jason : yeah , but i do n't see the judge giving jax custody just because he hired michael . carly : so it does n't matter either way . if michael works for elq , he 's around edward all the time . that 's a disaster . jason : it 's just a summer job , carly . it 's a couple months . carly : that 's what michael keeps saying ! it 's only a couple of months , mom , it 's not a big deal . michael spending time with edward is a really big deal . not to mention edward wants to give michael the world , and that 's not good for michael right now . and you know this ! jason : so are you asking me to talk michael out of it ? i ca n't . edward is michael 's great grandfather . it 's not up to me or to you to decide if michael works for him . carly : i do n't get it . you used to hate the quartermaines . you said yourself that the quartermaines were poison for michael . jason : maybe i was wrong .

[ scene_break ] jason : how much do you know about what happened when michael was a baby ? abby : he 's told me a little bit . his biological father was a screw - up , i guess . his mom fell in love with sonny , and sonny was able to get michael away from the quartermaines so that he could adopt him . and obviously you played a really big part in that , but i do n't know any details . jason : well , that screw - up was my brother . half - brother , aj . abby : is michael like him at all ? jason : no . no , not at all . abby : well , then , you and your brother are n't very much alike , either . because michael 's like you . jason : aj got carly pregnant when she was with somebody else . and then when she was ready to have michael , aj and the other guy wanted to take michael away from carly so carly lied and said that i was the dad . and i went along with it . abby : and your girlfriend did n't like that , hence the break - up . jason : it 's a little more complicated than that , but i lied . and i took my brother 's son , and losing her was one of the consequences . abby : why 'd you do it ? jason : because i really thought i was saving michael . i mean , the reason aj was the way he was from all this pressure that the quartermaines put on him . and i did n't want that for michael . i did n't want him lying or feeling like he had to please everybody or feeling like he was never good enough like aj felt . abby : so why do n't you stop michael from going to elq ? jason : because michael 's not a kid anymore . and i think he can handle himself . and you know what , he might like elq and maybe he can be what edward needs him to be . but if he 's not , i have faith in him that he can walk away . abby : the way you talk about your brother , i mean , it sounds like you regret what happened . jason : i regret how it ended . abby : well , maybe you sending michael back to edward is your way of apologizing . you know , of showing that you 're sorry that you ever took him in the first place . [ scene_break ] jax : look , michael , i know how much you love your little sister . but do you really want her growing up the way you did ? surrounded by the violence ? michael : the worst thing that happened to me growing up was the custody fight between my mom and my dad . i would have nightmares . thinking about standing in on the trial , having to choose one person over the other , and it made me sick . which is why i was always trying to get you and dad back together , 'cause i did n't want to choose who i wanted to live with . jax : well , i 'm sure your mother hated putting you through that , but she did it to keep you safe , which is what i 'm trying to do for josslyn right now . michael : you put josslyn through a custody fight and you 'll be hurting her a lot more than sharing her with my mom . jax : when she 's old enough , i 'll explain it to her . michael : it 'll be too late . josslyn needs my mom now , like kristina needed my dad when she was little . but you know what , he was n't there for her and she 's still paying the price for that . do n't do that to josslyn . just be a good dad . give her a stable home instead of constantly trying to take her mother away from her . jax : i 'm not taking her away from carly . she can see her whenever she wants , michael . michael : josslyn deserves better than that . so you 're going to shuffle her around all the time like i was for years . she does n't need you attacking my mom and trying to say how bad of a mother she is when she 's not . jax : that 's not what i 'm trying to do . michael : yeah , it is . yeah , it is . and you know it 's not true , but you 're going to say it no matter who gets hurt , just so you win . look , you 're always saying how much better you are than my dad . but my dad and my mom were able to work out a compromise . they put their own problems aside and they put their kids first . when are you going to do that with josslyn ? jax : that 's what i 'm doing right now , michael . everything i 'm doing right now is for josslyn . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : why ca n't i show the court this test ? what 's wrong with this one ? lucky : the results are suspect because you submitted the samples . see , for all the court knows , you could have submitted nikolas ' dna and claimed it was mine . elizabeth : i would never do that ! lucky : i know that , but the court does n't . you know , i 'm just explaining the legalities of it . elizabeth : ok , well then why ca n't i just explain to the judge that helena tampered with the first two tests ? lucky : you can explain it , but it does n't prove anything . we do n't have any proof . elizabeth : aiden is my son , too . [ sighs ] really ? i mean , really ? i could end up in court over this ? lucky : listen , i do n't think it 's going to come to that , ok ? i know nikolas , and he cares about aiden . he 's going to do what 's right for him . so i 'm going to go over there , ok ? i 'm going to go over there and i 'm going to talk to him .

[ scene_break ] carly : i think i made a really big mistake . jason : ok , what do you need me to do ? carly : i do n't need you to fix anything . i do n't need you to cover anything up . i just , i need a second opinion . jason : great . what ? carly : obviously i 'm not happy that michael 's going to be spending his summer at elq . jason : yeah , i know , you told me that . carly : so i told that to michael , too . i just wanted michael to understand that edward could be biased , and if family history comes up , that edward may slant the story and make edward sound good and me sound bad and that i just do n't think that michael should be working at elq . jason : ok , so far i 'm not hearing anything too terrible . carly : then jax showed up , ok ? jason : right . carly : jax heard that michael was going to be working at elq , he offered to put abby and michael to work for him . jason : yeah , but i do n't see michael working for jax when he 's trying to take josslyn away . carly : i know , that 's what michael said and i did n't do anything to stop it . jason : so where is the mistake ? carly : if michael went to work for jax , the worst thing that could happen is jax will bring it up in a custody hearing saying that he 's still a great stepfather , providing employment for his ex - con stepson . that 's it . jason : yeah , but i do n't see the judge giving jax custody just because he hired michael . carly : so it does n't matter either way . if michael works for elq , he 's around edward all the time . that 's a disaster . jason : it 's just a summer job , carly . it 's a couple months . carly : that 's what michael keeps saying ! it 's only a couple of months , mom , it 's not a big deal . michael spending time with edward is a really big deal . not to mention edward wants to give michael the world , and that 's not good for michael right now . and you know this ! jason : so are you asking me to talk michael out of it ? i ca n't . edward is michael 's great grandfather . it 's not up to me or to you to decide if michael works for him . carly : i do n't get it . you used to hate the quartermaines . you said yourself that the quartermaines were poison for michael . jason : maybe i was wrong .

[ scene_break ] jax : the fact that you 're defending sonny , knowing the kind of man he is and the threat he poses to the kids really says a lot about who you are , carly . now that you 've trashed everything , i hope you 're happy . carly : i 'm not the one who lied , jax . i 'm not the one who snuck around and did everything i possibly could to make sure the father of my boys went to prison . that was you . you are the one who made it impossible for me to trust you . jax : oh , but you trust sonny , the man who 's a threat to his own children ? he shot his own son point - blank . sonny : i did n't know he was my son , but you did . i would n't have shot dante if i had known the truth . of course , you knew the truth , and you did it for your own stupid reasons . hope it was worth it , jax . jax : i did what i had to do to protect my family . and it seems like i 'm the only one who ever cared about them . carly : you put michael at risk . you put my son at risk , jax . and now you 're telling me that you did it to protect our family ? that 's not true . it 's another lie . jax : oh , it does n't really matter now , does it , carly ? 'cause clearly our family and our baby girl mean as little as our vows . so go ahead and do whatever you want , because i do n't care . go ahead and sleep with sonny . [ door opens ] sonny : you know he 's expecting you to chase after him . [ door shuts ] sonny : i appreciate you still have my back . i know that i 've caused you and jax a lot of trouble . carly : you loved every minute of this . sonny : well , yeah . i got to admit . but look , you know , jax and i do n't mix very well , and the fact that he tried to get me arrested does n't surprise me . at least he 's consistent . carly : he 's consistently lied to me , that 's for sure . sonny : i always thought you deserved better . i mean , he thinks he 's god 's gift , and that you should be grateful to have him , and if he knew you the way i know you , he should be on his hands and knees begging for forgiveness -- carly : you 'd never , ever do that . ever . sonny : no , no . i would n't .

[ scene_break ] dante : okay . i have no problem going after sonny , as long as it 's done by the book . but you and your department have been trying to nail him for years with no results . i do n't want to be part of any personal vendetta . mac : personal vendetta ? dante : you try to bully michael into a confession , getting him to testify against his father ? to me -- that crosses a line , in my book , especially when we 've already established a pretty solid case against sonny . mac : you should know michael came into the station earlier and offered a full confession . he said he killed claudia to protect his mother and sister . we both know , dante , that he was trying to protect his father . so i sent him home and kept it off the record . dante : okay . michael does things like that to try and impress sonny . he probably thinks that if he saves sonny , he 'll get some credibility . mac : and how sad is that , huh ? trying to prove yourself to your father by trying to commit perjury ? there 's no personal vendetta here , all right ? i 'm not trying to persecute sonny 's family . i just want to bring him to justice . and i could use a good cop like you on my team , as long as you play by my rules . dante : i need your word that me being sonny 's son does n't factor into our work . mac : you got it . [ scene_break ] jax : the fact that you 're defending sonny , knowing the kind of man he is and the threat he poses to the kids really says a lot about who you are , carly . now that you 've trashed everything , i hope you 're happy . carly : i 'm not the one who lied , jax . i 'm not the one who snuck around and did everything i possibly could to make sure the father of my boys went to prison . that was you . you are the one who made it impossible for me to trust you . jax : oh , but you trust sonny , the man who 's a threat to his own children ? he shot his own son point - blank . sonny : i did n't know he was my son , but you did . i would n't have shot dante if i had known the truth . of course , you knew the truth , and you did it for your own stupid reasons . hope it was worth it , jax . jax : i did what i had to do to protect my family . and it seems like i 'm the only one who ever cared about them . carly : you put michael at risk . you put my son at risk , jax . and now you 're telling me that you did it to protect our family ? that 's not true . it 's another lie . jax : oh , it does n't really matter now , does it , carly ? 'cause clearly our family and our baby girl mean as little as our vows . so go ahead and do whatever you want , because i do n't care . go ahead and sleep with sonny . [ door opens ] sonny : you know he 's expecting you to chase after him . [ door shuts ] sonny : i appreciate you still have my back . i know that i 've caused you and jax a lot of trouble . carly : you loved every minute of this . sonny : well , yeah . i got to admit . but look , you know , jax and i do n't mix very well , and the fact that he tried to get me arrested does n't surprise me . at least he 's consistent . carly : he 's consistently lied to me , that 's for sure . sonny : i always thought you deserved better . i mean , he thinks he 's god 's gift , and that you should be grateful to have him , and if he knew you the way i know you , he should be on his hands and knees begging for forgiveness -- carly : you 'd never , ever do that . ever . sonny : no , no . i would n't . [ carly sighs ] carly : i need to see how this plays out , you know . i 've worked way too hard to build what i have for jax to throw it away . [ scene_break ] dante : hey . look at those flowers . you really went all out . lulu : mmm . not me . boris . dante : who 's boris ? what , i have a secret admirer named boris ? lulu : no . he is a freelance photographer that sends flowers to suck up and get more assignments . but kate 's not in port charles , so she wo n't be needing them . dante : holy sh -- wow . happy valentine 's day to me . you look smokin ' hot in that . lulu : thank you . well , i was n't planning on debuting this dress at the hospital , but given the circumstances , we 'll just have to make do . dante : oh . you look beautiful . [ lulu laughs ] dante : my , uh , my attire does n't really measure up at all .

[ scene_break ] mac : guess it was only a matter of time . diane : i am not the mood tonight , commissioner , so i 'm going to give you one opportunity to make this go away now . mac : i have every right to question sam . i 'm in the middle of a murder investigation . diane : and i was in the middle of a valentine 's day celebration with my sexy , flexy soul mate . but business is business , and i 'm here now , so if you can not show me just cause why you need to detain my client -- pay .

[ scene_break ] sonny : okay . listen . i really am sorry . i know , bottom line , you love jax . carly : you 're not sorry . i 'm sorry . jax is a wonderful , kind , generous man . he 's also josslyn 's father . i just ca n't believe he lied to me about this . sonny : i get it . and if he thinks that you 're back with me , he 's probably gone for good because basically , it 's no competition . but if that 's not what you want , you might want to -- what ? i mean , you might want to reconsider -- carly : you really love that jax thinks this is all about you , do n't you ? sonny : he does n't appreciate your strength and your passion , and i just want to see you spread your wings again . carly : you want to see jax lose everything because you 're pissed off and you 're mad because he wanted to put you in prison . and now , you get to rescue me from jax , right ? sonny : when have you ever needed rescuing , especially where jax is concerned ? look , i want you to flatten him . but in the end , you 're going to do what you want to do , like always .

'cause i should have never trusted julian , 'cause he 's a lying piece of garbage . but i tell you what -- julian had that witness killed . and he 's gon na do anything he can to keep carlos from turning state 's witness and send his ass to prison .

[ scene_break ] dr. obrecht : from where i sit , this patient 's death was entirely preventable . it was the result of gross negligence on your part . and i have no doubt the autopsy will confirm my hypothesis . carly : what was that about ? finn : nothing . carly : is she still mad about what happened in the record room ? finn : something different entirely . carly : oh , my god . obrecht is gunning for you . finn : you think ? carly : yeah . i mean , she does n't care if she 's unpopular , but she ca n't stand being wrong . my son told me that obrecht 's neurologist flubbed tracy 's original diagnosis . and obrecht backed him . then you show up . you saved tracy 's life , which makes obrecht look even worse . finn : you 've given this more thought than i have . carly : well , i was there , remember , the day that she showed up , and she chewed you out for missing that lecture . the day that you had that sudden `` drop in blood sugar . `` you know , when you had that `` insulin injection `` thing . finn : i remember asking you to respect my privacy . and you agreed . and then i would think that me helping you tonight would count for something . carly : it does . it counts for a lot . finn : even though we came up empty . carly : we did n't come up empty . our expedition was very successful . see , i got the records from the day of josslyn 's transplant .

[ scene_break ] sonny : you know what ? thank you for talking to michael . i do n't want him anywhere near carlos . jason : yeah , i get that . sonny : i assume you know that the witness who saw carlos kill lavery is dead . jason : yeah , i know . sonny : how 'd you know ? jason : i was with sam at the hospital . her mother discovered the witness . apparently he od 'd in a garage . sonny : let me tell you -- julian jerome had that witness killed . he was followed , held long enough . shot him up . when the drugs kicked in , and he was helpless , they put his prints on the needle , left the needle in his arm . jason : [ scoffs ] i 'm -- i 'm sorry , but how do you know that ? sonny : because it happened to me once . that needle went into my -- [ slapping arm ] my arm . i started feeling relaxed . it was terrifying . like i was drowning inside my own body . jason : you really think jerome 's responsible ? sonny : julian had duke murdered , and he 's been covering his ass ever since . first he tells me that you killed him 'cause you were trying to impress him . then he tells me where you 're at , right , so i can have somebody kill you . and i know what you 're gon na say . that 's my mistake . i take full responsibility . 'cause i should have never trusted julian , 'cause he 's a lying piece of garbage . but i tell you what -- julian had that witness killed . and he 's gon na do anything he can to keep carlos from turning state 's witness and send his ass to prison . [ scene_break ] paul : i sympathize with your situation , mr. rivera . i am well aware of sonny corinthos ' lust for vengeance . but there 's nothing i can do to secure your release . you rejected the plea deal , so you have no other choice but to stand trial . carlos : all right . on the way back to my cell tonight , where i 'm gon na be waiting for one of sonny 's people to come kill me , i just might get the urge to tell one of those cops out there about the skeleton in your closet , da hornsby . 'cause i think a lot of people in this town would be very interested to know the true circumstances around kyle sloane 's death . paul : while i ca n't do anything to get you released , i can have you transferred to another facility . once there , i can request extra security be added to your cellblock . now , what do you feel about that ? carlos : you do n't think sonny corinthos could find me wherever i 'm locked up ? he 's a very powerful man with a lot of friends on both sides of the cell doors . paul : your location will be kept secret . corinthos will have no idea how to find you . there . i will have this filed immediately . you will be transferred within the hour . carlos : i 'm supposed to be satisfied with that ? sit -- sitting shackled on a long car ride to god knows where , just hoping that one of sonny 's people do n't find me ? paul : i realize the solution is n't perfect . but that 's all i can do . [ scene_break ] finn : this is good . nice work , carly . but i think , given the circumstance , it 's better we pretend that i do n't know anything about it . carly : about what ? finn : [ chuckles ] look , if you have any questions about what hospital staff might hypothetically be involved in an organ transplant , i 'd be happy to talk you through it . carly : thank you . i - i 'm probably gon na need to take you up on that . dr. obrecht : you 'll be happy to hear that mr. ellis ' family has denied my request for an autopsy , citing religious reasons . you may think this gets you off the hook , but let me assure you , i have every intention of reporting this to the new chief . you may be chummy with dr. quartermaine , but we 'll see who 's at fault when this is brought up at m & m . finn : good . i 'm completely baffled by what caused mr. ellis ' death , and i would welcome a full hospital inquiry . dr. obrecht : we 'll see . carly : was that about the old man you were talking to ? finn : yes . carly : he died ? i 'm so sorry . finn : i appreciate your sympathy . i do . but , uh ... sometimes patients die . sometimes patients die , and we just ca n't save them all . carly : does n't mean their deaths do n't affect you . are you okay ? finn : i 'm fine . i think i need to get back to work . carly : okay . thank you for your help . finn : any time . [ scene_break ] dante : the me 's waiting on further tests , but as of now , hale garrett died of an accidental drug overdose . uh , alexis davis was brought in for questioning , but we had nothing on her so we had to let her go . jordan : alexis davis ? dante : she 's the one who found the guy with a needle in his arm . jordan : okay . well , it 's pretty clear that alexis is defending carlos to stop him from flipping on julian , but i ca n't see her committing a murder . dante : so , just so you know , anna was at the hospital when the witness was brought in . alexis and julian were there , too . she had a uniform detain alexis . the -- the idea was that we put the pressure on alexis , and julian would be forced to confess . but that did n't all pan out . jordan : yeah , i did get a message from anna , so thank you for the heads up on that . you know , anna is -- she 's overly invested in this case , to say the least . but , i mean , she 's right . this od , it 's too convenient . dante : yeah . i got , uh , word out to some witnesses . waiting to hear back from them , from the metro court . and , uh , i got a text message from jenkins about a half an hour ago that the security footage was now at the pd . jordan : can you do me a favor ? i know it 's late , but can you head to the station now and see if it gives us anything ? dante : uh , yeah . no problem . i 'll , uh -- i 'll head over now . jordan : thank you , dante . and i 'll , uh -- i 'll keep you posted if i hear anything . dante : okay . see you . [ sighs ] lulu : you have to go ? dante : yep .

[ scene_break ] andré : mmm . is everything all right ? jordan : um , no . the witness that was gon na testify that they saw carlos rivera kill duke lavery died today . possibly murder . andré : that 's horrible news . i 'm sure anna was counting on that witness to testify against carlos . i am allowed to mention her name , right ? jordan : [ chuckles ] yes , of course . andré : okay . jordan : i understand . look , i 'm -- i 'm worried about anna , too . andré : but at the moment , i am more worried about you . jordan : mm , i like the sound of that . andré : is it me or is there something else on your mind ? jordan : i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . um ... i do n't think i 'm gon na be very good company tonight . andré : yeah . jordan : i should get back to the station . andré : [ sighs ] i understand . jordan : hey , look . i do n't want to kick you out . you can , you know , hang out for a bit . get some sleep . andré : nah , you know what ? i 'm suddenly feeling energized . think i 'll head into work and catch up on work . jordan : hm . it 's not -- not quite the , uh -- the ending that i had in mind . andré : well , that makes two of us . but there will be other nights . jordan : yes , there will . mm . i better stop . andré : hm ? jordan : got to stop .

i would n't be so sure about that , uh - uh . not , of course , unless it involves dismembering sheridan like one of her blondie dolls . let me tell you something -- charlie may be unconscious now , but she 's going to come to , and when she does , she 's going to head right out after sheridan . and you know why ? because she 's nuts and hellbent on killing sheridan , thanks to you . beth : i can handle charlie . mrs. wallace : oh , she 's going to take a lot more than handling . and you -- you are going to get caught in yet another lie ! beth : no , i won't . mrs. wallace : yes , you will . and just wait , wait , wt till charlie finds out that you are pregnant . beth : oh . mrs. wallace : oh , yeah , right . duh . i do n't think she 's going to like the idea of you being preggers with a man 's baby . i think she 's going to see that as a betrayal , not take it too kindly . beth : ok , i know what i 'm doing , mother . mrs. wallace : yeah , but do you know what charlie is going to do ?

antonio : yeah , something that 's adding a lot of pressure to you . i know that you and luis have something that you want to tell me , but every time you get ready to tell me , something comes up , it does n't end up happening . that makes me worry about you , sheridan . it 's just putting way too much pressure on you , and it has to end . i 'm just hoping that when you and luis tell me whatever it is you need to that it 'll take that pressure off of you . i just do n't want to see you in pain like this . i 'll get you something to drink . hank , do you want some coffee ?

beth : i -- i did n't want you to know . mrs. wallace : sure you didn't . beth : i know what kind of pressure you 're under , and i did n't want to add to it , what , with sheridan being pregnant , possibly with your baby . the last thing that i ever wanted was for you to find out that -- that i was carrying your child . luis : my child ?

[ sighs , chuckles ] it just kind of makes me emotional . it 's stupid . valerie : i ... i think that 's really sweet . johnny : ah , thanks . valerie : there is a special feeling during the holiday times , and a lot of people get emotional about it . johnny : thank you . all right , anyway , i got to go . there 's something i got to take care of before i get back to the concert . valerie : anything i can help with ? johnny : you know , valerie , maybe you can .

sharon : i do n't remember dr. anderson mentioning a nurse being there for sully 's delivery . dylan : makes sense that she would have some kind of help . sharon : but that 's just it . i do n't think she worked at fairview . her scrubs were a different color , and she wore this badge . dylan : do you remember anything else ? sharon : it may have had a gc memorial logo on it . [ gasps ] dylan : what ? what is it ? sharon : this might sound weird , but i 've got the feeling that they had some sort of connection . dylan : this nurse could be the one person who can tell us what was going on in dr. anderson 's head . shawn : i do n't want him to go . please . nick : david just needs to go for tests . they 're gon na make sure he 's okay . sage : it 's a standard procedure , shawn . it 's gon na be all right . shawn : do n't take him , please . nurse stephens : babies born early could have minor complications . we just want to make sure he 's healthy . nurse stephens : there were ... complications . sage : what do you mean , complications ? what do you mean , complications ? no . sage : [ gasps ] nick : hey , you okay ? nurse stephens : as soon as the blood tests are done , you can see your son . shawn : no . i wo n't . once i sign the adoption papers , i 'll never see him again . so sorry i was late , but i have some follow - up questions . jack : and we 'd love to answer them . we 'll be right with you , okay ? excuse us . okay , we are pulling the plug . this pass key launch is ended . phyllis : we ca n't . the site is live . jack : we are in damage control right now . we are not moving forward until you straighten things out with victoria . billy : jack , does it look like she 's open to working things out with me right now ? jack : she just told the world jabot is guilty of the worst kind of theft . phyllis : no , you know what the worst kind of theft is ? when someone steals your husband and puts a psycho drug dealer in his place . jack : you 're not helping . phyllis : pass key is ours , and we are not gon na let victoria 's tantrum stop us . billy : i agree . best case -- it adds to the buzz . jack : so that 's the kind of publicity jabot can look forward to ? tabloid sensationalism ? billy : whatever sells the product , jack . jack : you better start taking this seriously . find victoria . apologize . and if you love her , as i believe you do , work it out ! not just for the company -- for yourself , for your future , for your family . victoria : oh . good . you 're here . michael : all right , stop right there . if you plan on lecturing me about betraying your father 's trust , i want you to know that at this very moment , the bar association is getting me disbarred , so if you 'd like to lay anything on top of that -- insults , comments about my character or the lack thereof -- you lay it on me now ! victoria : michael ! what if i offered you a half a million dollars to come back to newman ? victor : i wondered how long it would take you to show your face . ian : [ chuckles ] i bet you wish you 'd killed me when you had the chance . nick : look , they just have to give david some tests to make sure he 's healthy . that 's what we want , right ? it 's what we all want . shawn : yeah . nick : attagirl . shawn : wait . i love you , david . [ sobs ] nick : hey , hey , hey . he 's gon na be okay . everything 's gon na be okay . shawn : you 're his family now . i 'll be nothing to him . nobody . sage : shawn . shawn : [ sniffles ] sage : shawn . look at me . you know what ? this does n't have to be goodbye . shawn : you 'll send pictures ? let me friend him online ? it 'll just be harder . [ sobs ] sage : how about a new agreement ? you can be a part of david 's life . he 'll always know that you brought him into the world . how about an open adoption ? what do you say ? sharon : i always assumed that dr. anderson was using me , treating me to play out her obsession with nick , but what if i was a target , too ? dylan : okay , let 's not go there yet , okay ? the nurse is a great step . let 's just take it one step at a time . sharon : [ sighs ] i - i trusted her with everything . if this was some crazy revenge scheme -- dylan : hold on , hold on . let 's not get worked up . sharon : one step at a time . dylan : one step -- yes . and i think our next step is to find the nurse . sharon : how ? i do n't even know her name . dylan : do you remember her face ? sharon : absolutely . dylan : okay . then we 're gon na check all the personnel files at the hospital , see what we can come up with . sharon : i 'm afraid of what we 're gon na find . dylan : hey , we get this nurse , we get some answers , and your nightmares are gon na be over for good . billy : you want to apologize for what ? being brilliant ? jack : before tonight , there was talk of actual peace between newman and jabot . you just blew that out of the water with this launch . billy : phyllis and i just saved jabot . we 're no longer just cosmetics . we 're a world player now , and you want to put the brakes on because why ? victoria 's feelings are hurt ? jack : put pass key aside and revenge and newman . this is about you and the woman you love . phyllis : and maybe a little bit about her not suing the hell out of jabot . jack : yeah , fine . you want to hand this to the lawyers ? billy , talk to victoria . work this out . can you do that ? billy : i got a better idea . double scotch on the rocks , please . jack : no . phyllis : billy . billy : it 's too late . jack : too late ? is it too late for your kids to hope to have a home where their mother and father live under the same roof ? billy : i 'm just being realistic , jack . jabot won , all right ? that 's a good thing . nothing 's gon na make it better for victoria . phyllis : how about we table this discussion , gentlemen ? hello ! i know you 're busy , but about those questions ? jack : we are just finishing up . i promise you we will get back to you . billy : wow . look at that . see ? little buzz keeps them coming back for more . maybe i should get slapped a little bit more . jack : you start taking this seriously . billy ! do not bring down jabot 's name with another bender . do not crash outside . do not make an ass of yourself . you have done quite enough damage tonight already . ian : sorry there was n't a basket of muffins waiting for you , but , uh , i could procure one for you if you 'd like . [ chuckles ] victor : get out . ian : ohh , victor , is that any way to speak to someone with whom you 've shared so much ? how is nikki ? victor : do n't ever mention her name again . ian : oh . those flashing eyes . that temper . god , i missed that . but that 's exactly a thing to get you in trouble around here . you know , i have some pull around here , victor . victor : hmm . ian : yeah , the boys consider me to be a paragon of respectability and power . [ chuckles ] you can think of me as a kind of , um , magical mystery tour guide . [ chuckles ] victor : what do you want ? ian : it 's not what i want . it 's what i can do for you . you 're gon na need protection . now , i know you think you can take care of yourself . i saw your cell mate in solitary with that beautiful shiner you gave him . but surely you realize there are bigger and tougher guys in here than poor bobby . you 're gon na have to accept the fact you 're no longer master of the universe , victor . all your wealth and power you had on the outside just makes you a bigger target here in the inside . if you 're gon na survive ... you need me . [ both chuckle ] shawn : i could get to know david , spend time with him ? sage : you gave birth to a beautiful boy . you trusted us to raise him . we all love him . why not share ? shawn : wow . i do n't know what to say . sage : will you think about it ? shawn : yeah . nick : we 'll let you get some rest . sage : it 's gon na be all right , shawn . trust me . [ door closes ] nick : i just want to make sure i heard what i thought i heard in there . open adoption ? so , shawn 's gon na be a part of david 's life ? sage : yeah . nick : are you sure about that ? sage : i 'm sure . nick : okay , i - i mean , okay , but if -- if you 're offering that in , like , the heat of the moment , i need to know , because that 's not something you can take back . it 'd be extremely cruel . sage : i think what would be more cruel is if shawn signs adoption papers and has to walk away from the son that she loves . nick : i know you 've been concerned she might change her mind . sage : nick , this is -- this is a good solution . nick : how did you get to this ? i mean , we have n't even talked about it . sage : did you see the nurse who took david away ? nick : no . sage : that 's the same nurse that told us about christian . remember ? well , she mentioned the word complication to shawn , and that 's the same word that she said to us . and i just thought there is no way in hell that i could take a baby away from another mother . sharon : instant access to the hospital personnel files . that mcavoy charm works every time . dylan : this time the badge did the work . official police business . sharon : i thought the case was closed , though . dylan : well , uh , until i get some answers , i consider it open . any luck ? sharon : not so far . wait . that 's her . dylan : which one ? sharon : no . right there . dylan : are you sure ? sharon : positive . let 's go talk to her . dylan : okay , hold on . hold on . chances are she 'll speak to me more freely without you being present . sharon : yeah , you 're right . okay , you do that mcavoy charm thing you do . dylan : um , excuse me , ma'am ? hi . detective mcavoy , gcpd . i 'd like to ask you some questions . jack : i think we need to get billy out of here before he says another word to the press . phyllis : i will get him in a cab . he 'll listen to me . jack : okay , i think you should take the lead . i will support you all the way . let 's go . lois : jack abbott , you are going to answer my questions ! jack : i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry it 's taken so long for you to talk with us . how can i help you ? lois : ms. newman 's allegations are very serious . are there any truth to them ? jack : no , this is not the abbott - newman feud rearing its ugly head for another round . no , victoria and i are deeply committed to peace between the companies and the families . what you witnessed was victoria 's very emotional response to her father 's incarceration . phyllis : whatever conflict our families may have in the business world , the abbotts feel that the newman family is justified . we are committed to working everything out amicably . lois : she called your brother a liar and a thief . jack : did she ? it 's lois , is n't it ? lois : yes , lois . jack : lois , let 's -- let 's talk . what you saw was victoria in a very difficult moment in her life . she 's under a lot of pressure right now . billy : perfect timing . phyllis : [ sighs ] billy : what do you say we grab a bottle and light this town on fire ? phyllis : how about you just turn it in for the night ? grab a computer and see how pass key changes the world and our bank accounts . billy : there 's plenty of time for that . tonight i 'm celebrating . phyllis : everybody knows what happens when you celebrate , billy . billy : hmm ? no , i mean , i - i got a ride home . i do n't plan on running into anybody that 's gon na want to punch me or that i 'm gon na want to punch . it 's all good . so why do n't you join me ? tonight 's about us . phyllis : i will pass . we will celebrate , but tonight i need to stay with my husband . i think he needs me . billy : [ fake snores ] so boring . well , if you change your mind , you know where to find me . jack : i have feuded with her father for years , but victoria and i are in a very good place right now . michael : this is some salary . i ca n't wait to hear the job description . victoria : you would be a consultant . your first requirement would be loyalty -- not to my father , obviously . to me . michael : why would you hire a man who just tried to pull something over on your father and then ask for his loyalty ? there 's got to be a punchline in there somewhere . victoria : you know , the way i see it , michael , you owe me and the company . i want to go after the abbotts . michael : oh . right . as in phyllis abbott , my friend and co - conspirator against your father ? no , that 's ridiculous . victoria : michael , wait a second . just wait a second , will you ? i 'm not sure if you 're aware of this , but jabot just launched a groundbreaking internet- security program . it 's a multi - billion - dollar idea that was stolen from newman . michael : pass key . my brother 's been excited about this project for a long time . victoria : yes , yes ! my father acquired it legally . billy stole it . phyllis helped him . fraud , corporate espionage , and theft . i want to sue jabot . i want to sue every abbott that comes in my sight . michael : i have a feeling that there 's only one abbott that could get you this worked up . victoria : okay , michael , do you want the job or not ? look , phyllis did n't do you any favors . the abbotts left you out to dry . michael : so this is my revenge ? victoria : it 's a chance for you to right a wrong . michael : i 'm about to be disbarred ! victoria : i do n't care about that , michael . you 're the most brilliant legal mind that we have in this state . i do n't care if you ca n't practice law . you can advise newman attorneys . michael : hmm . all right , for kicks and giggles , what other proof do you have ? victoria : i have a lot of dots , okay ? it 's your job to connect them . michael : okay , if i were to accept your very generous offer , my first task would be to advise you to consider what you 're starting . victoria : they started it . michael : jabot may have committed illegal activities , and if they have , charges could be brought . but , victoria , do you really want to send somebody else you care about to prison ? victoria : michael , no , i do n't want the father of my children to go to prison , but i would n't hesitate threatening him to get what 's rightfully mine . michael : hmm . there are other people involved in this , including my own brother . victoria : i would never force you to go after kevin . but he might have information that we can use , and you would be the person to get that from him . and then there 's summer . she knew that billy was secretly communicating with natalie . michael : and now we 're dragging phyllis ' daughter into this ? victoria : she dragged her daughter into the middle of this when she teamed up to steal pass key with billy . michael : you know , i need to get one thing clear . this was billy 's originally . this was billy 's project , correct ? victoria : no ! you 're not correct . he did n't have the capital for it . he lost the deal . he practically died trying to get the money for this deal ! he swore to me that he would n't pursue it ! he put a ring on my finger ! he vowed that he was gon na be a new man ! he 's been lying to me , michael . michael : this sounds like a vendetta . victoria : well , what if it is ? michael : a very personal one . look , you know what ? free advice . court is the last resort . the best way to resolve this is talking . victoria : it 's too late for that . michael : no , no , no ! you sit down , face to face ! you look at the facts ! you work it out ! you find a settlement ! look , diplomacy first , victoria . victoria : he 's just gon na lie to me again , michael . michael : [ sighs ] before you throw a lot of money at lawyers to go into battle for something you can not win , just think . think about it . we 'll talk soon . victoria : [ sighs ] i know what you would do in this situation . you would have already launched a full - scale attack . i 'm not you , dad . i always dreamed that i 'd run this company differently . no more wars , no more hurting people that i care about . victor : i do n't need you for anything . ian : [ chuckles ] sticks and stones , victor . sticks and stones . let -- let me explain it to you in terms that you 'll understand , all right ? there 's a food chain in here . and you -- you 're way down there somewhere with the earthworms and the woodlice . me ? i 'm king kong . [ chuckles ] go figure , right ? i mean , the people in here , they look up to me . so my advice to you would be show some respect . i see . you need time to think , huh ? [ chuckles ] victor : my advice to you ... do n't bother me . i wo n't bother you , okay ? ian : well , that 's not exactly how it works , victor . victor : listen to me . listen carefully . i do n't give a damn how you think it works . it is how i work . now , you stay the hell away from me . understand that ? otherwise you 're gon na have big problems . i assure you . ian : huh . victor : you no good son of a bitch . ian : well , you do n't have any family in here . you have no company in here , no friends . you 're all alone ! you 're all alone ! nick : yeah , this open - adoption thing -- it sounds amazing . sage : [ sighs ] nick : it may not be easy . we 're gon na have a lot of stuff to figure out . sage : i do n't even know where to start , but i know we can do it together . nick : we can do it . sharon : hi , guys . sage : hey , sharon . what are you doing here ? sharon : um , how 's the baby ? nick : he 's , uh , he 's tiny , but he 's strong , breathing on his own . everything 's green lights . sharon : that 's so good to hear . and , again , if i did anything that may have led shawn to changing her mind , i am so sorry . sage : it 's okay . sharon , it does n't matter anymore because the adoption is happening . sharon : that 's the best news ! sage : it 's not how we planned it , but i 'm gon na be a mom . nick : yeah , you are . dylan : you heard about dr. sandy anderson ? nurse stephens : of course . it 's so tragic . a patient attacked her out of the blue , was n't it ? dylan : yeah , we 're trying to find out . uh , the patient 's name is patty williams . she suffered a psychotic break . nurse stephens : poor woman . dylan : yeah , so what i 'm trying to determine is if the break happened before she killed dr. anderson or it was a result of the attack . nurse stephens : you think the patient might have been sane when she stabbed the doctor ? dylan : i 'm looking into the possibility that ms . williams may have acted on a motive . and actually , i was hoping that you can clear some of those things up for me . nurse stephens : me ? dylan : yeah . nurse stephens : i 'm not sure how i can help . i - i did n't know the patient . i did n't work at fairview . dylan : then why were you there the night sharon mcavoy went into labor ? nurse stephens : dr. anderson called to alert the hospital when her patient went into labor , but it happened so quickly , she made the delivery herself . dylan : hmm . then why were you at fairview that night ? nurse stephens : i 'm a neonatal nurse . she asked me to examine the child . dylan : oh , okay . is that standard procedure ? nurse stephens : uh , standard procedure typically means transferring mother and child to a hospital , but this was a unique situation . dylan : did you notice anything out of the ordinary while you were there ? nurse stephens : not that i can recall . dylan : did you know dr. anderson well ? nurse stephens : i just happened to pick up the ward phone that night . dylan : did she say or do anything that seemed suspicious to you ? nurse stephens : she was a consummate professional , concerned only with her patients ' welfare . dylan : did she ever mention the name nicholas newman ? nurse stephens : i 'm curious , detective mcavoy . how is the birth of one patient 's baby related to another patient stabbing the doctor ? dylan : uh , like i said , i 'm just trying to find answers wherever i can . nurse stephens : it 's reassuring to know our police force is so dedicated . though i assume your dedication springs from something more ? the amateur detective in me ca n't help wondering if you 're related to sharon mcavoy . dylan : yeah , she 's my wife . nurse stephens : this must be a very personal case for you , detective . dylan : uh , yeah , it is . it is . so if there 's anything that you can remember at all , it would be a great help . nurse stephens : i remember examining your little boy . he was perfect . you should consider yourself very lucky to have brought home such a healthy , beautiful baby . some parents are n't that fortunate . excuse me . nick : you know , i think i 'm gon na go try and find , like , a pudding cup for shawn or something . sage : oh , sweet . nick : okay . sharon : that baby is so lucky to have you and nick as parents . sage : we 're the lucky ones . um , i 'm gon na go check on david and see how long those tests are gon na take , so ... sharon : oh , wait , sage . i 'm curious what you said before . so , the adoption 's on but not as planned ? sage : well , sharon , you know , we 've grown to love shawn , and this decision 's really hard for her , so we decided to make it an open adoption . sharon : so shawn will be able to have a relationship with david ? sage : yeah . i mean , there will be parameters , of course , but she 'll definitely be a part of his life . sharon : wow . what a gift , getting to watch her son grow up . i ca n't help wondering how things might have been different if i 'd gotten to be a second mom to cassie when she was young . sage : well , shawn 's not going to be a second mom . i 'll be the only one that david calls `` mom . `` jack : the best thing you can do right now is download pass key for yourself . make sure that all the data you have is not hacked by the competition . ahh ! jack abbott ! [ laughs ] jack : [ sighs ] phyllis : you 're a master . jack : with everyone except my brother , it seems . phyllis : yeah , he said that he had some celebrating to do . although it seemed like he was more in mourning . jack : because tonight 's about more than pass key and beating victor . phyllis : it was about losing victoria . i do n't want to lose you . jack : i love you . phyllis : and i 'm in pain . and i know that . and wanting victor 's head on a platter with all the blood and guts and destruction -- jack : no one has ever accused you of half measures . phyllis : i thought it was gon na feel a little bit better , you know ? [ sighs ] you know , do n't get me wrong . it feels pretty amazing , but launching pass key and beating victor at his own game and knowing that he 's finally behind bars , you know , none of it matters if i do n't have you . jack : i 'm here , red . phyllis : the things i said about wanting to blow victor 's empire to pieces and leaving him in the rubble , i 'd give all that up if that 's what you want . billy : `` pass key will change the cyber playing field forever . we look forward to great things from jabot and billy abbott . `` yes ! [ knock on door ] [ imitates crowd cheering ] billy : [ sighs ] i knew you could n't stay away , partner . victoria : may i come in ? billy : yeah . yeah . yeah , yeah . come in . victoria : oh . just you and your tablet . i thought the abbotts would be partying all night long . billy : well , you know me . i like to celebrate alone . would you like some champagne ? victoria : no , thank you . billy : it 's great to see you . i mean , it takes a big person to admit when they 're wrong , so it 's ... i accept your apology . victoria : i did n't come here to apologize . shawn : so , this open - adoption thing , it 's for real ? nick : absolutely . shawn : how would it work ? nick : honestly , i have no idea . but we 'll make it work . i think we have to have one rule , though . and that is we all do our best and love david and do what is best for him . shawn : i wonder if it gets weird . nick : well , the good thing for us is weird is my specialty . shawn : [ chuckles ] nick : you know , it may not be easy . it 's definitely uncharted territory . but i think we all can work together and give david the kind of life we want for him . how do you like the idea ? shawn : i think it 's cool . i mean ... i knew it would be hard to give him up , but then when i saw him and he 's so tiny and fighting so hard ... i just wanted to hold him , protect him . nick : well , now , you know , you get to be a part of his life , watch him grow up , make sure he 's okay . shawn : yeah . nick : i just do n't want you to think that we 're forcing this on you . shawn : we have a deal . you 're adopting david . you guys have been so great . i 'd never want to hurt you . nick : well , forget about us . what do you want , shawn ? jack : your fire is one of the things i love most about you . it 's just sometimes it gets so hot , i worry . phyllis : well , maybe you should talk to the person who stands too close , like michael . jack : i feel bad about what happened with michael , but , you know , he walked into this eyes wide open . i know you feel bad , too . but i also know you have the biggest heart of anyone i know and the most passion , the greatest courage , and it 's what makes you you and what makes us ... phyllis : unbeatable ? jack : yeah . something like that . i can not tell you how much it means to me that you 're putting this vendetta behind you . phyllis : i do n't want what happened to victoria and billy to happen to us . it 's taken me a long time to get here , but i 'm here with you . this is where i want to be the rest of my life . ian : easy . victor wants to be left alone . make sure he is . like it or not , i 'm gon na protect you . billy : so , did you come all the way over here to slap the other side of my face ? victoria : i want to suggest a compromise . billy : you could have picked up the phone for that . victoria : i know that , but face to face is better . billy : i agree , when it 's your beautiful face . victoria : i think that newman and jabot should share ownership of pass key . they should split the profits down the middle . it 's in line with your original offer . billy : in line ? it 's actually exactly what i offered , and you rejected it . victoria : i changed my mind . billy : well , it 's just kind of confusing because what happened to `` war `` ? victoria : i made a commitment to stop this feud between our families , billy . billy : that 's funny , because the slap kind of felt like `` bring it on . `` victoria : i was angry , okay ? i needed some time to think about it . billy : hmm . victoria : that 's not what i want . i want peace . billy : i think i know what you want . i agree 100 % . victoria : good . good , good , good . so , then you know that a co - venture would be a very prudent move . billy : yes . co - venture -- very prudent move , bringing in the abbotts and the newmans together , especially a certain newman and a certain abbott . victoria : somehow i do n't think we 're on the same page right now . billy : i think we 're on the same page . we 're talking about a merger , right ? dylan : okay , thanks for the information . sharon : hi . hey . so , what did the nurse say ? dylan : uh , nurse stephens confirmed that she was at fairview that night to check on sully . sharon : and ? dylan : there 's nothing more than that . she said dr. anderson was perfectly professional and everything was above board . sharon : the feeling i get when i remember her , that `` hairs on the back of my neck `` feeling , maybe she 's lying . dylan : i mean , she seemed pretty straightforward . and i checked on her work record . she 's a star . sharon : so was dr. anderson . and look how she turned out . sage : oh , my gosh ! i just saw david . he 's doing so well . he 's gon na be out of the incubator tomorrow . i ca n't wait to hold him and smell his little baby skin and kiss his little fingers and ... nick : that 's great news . sage : what 's wrong ? nick : uh ... sage : did you talk to shawn ? is -- is she asking questions about the open adoption or something ? nick : she did n't say a whole lot . sage : okay , well , she probably does n't know what questions to ask . i mean , it 's new for all of us . what ? nick : [ sighs ] i do n't want to say it . [ chuckles ] sage : then do n't say it . nick : i think shawn might be changing her mind . sage : no . that 's not possible because i offered a perfect solution . i 'm just gon na talk to her about it . nick : no , listen , she -- she did n't say one way or the other . sage : okay , good , because then that means there 's hope . so i 'm just gon na clarify with her and explain everything , and she 's -- nick : no . do n't do that . sage : why ? nick : because the more we push , the greater the chance is we push her away . sage : how do you know that ? nick : just give her time , sage . it does n't matter how much we love that baby . there 's only so much we can do . it 's still shawn 's decision . phyllis : i 'm so sorry . i 'm sorry that i spun out of control over victor . i ... i would never do anything to hurt this family . i would n't . i - i just -- i get so worked up sometimes , you know ? jack : i know that . and no one would blame you after everything that victor put you through . phyllis : put us through . now what ? jack : now we look ahead . phyllis : pass key ? jack : i fear the damage from pass key has already been done , unless billy can find a way to get through to victoria . victoria : oh ! what are you doing ? billy : working on my co - venture with you . hey , if you ask me , i think it 's going pretty well . victoria : i came by to make a business proposal , clean and simple . that 's all . billy : i do n't want to do clean . let 's not do clean . victoria : god , you 're drunk . of course ! of course you 're drunk ! yes , you 're drunk . billy : i 'm the man that i said i was gon na be , victoria . i 'm successful , the top of my game . you should read what they 're saying about me . it 's pretty impressive . victoria : all i see is the same , old billy . maybe you ought to sleep this off . billy : let me ask you a question . are you mad because i 'm a success or are you mad because i beat your daddy ? victoria : i do n't even know why i bothered coming by . billy : vick -- victoria : see you in court ! billy : vick ! victoria : [ sighs ] dad . you 're out . i 'm so glad to see you . victor : are you forgetting that you lead the charge to put me inside those prison walls ? victoria : i 'm so sorry . can you please forgive me ? i 've missed you every single day . my life is such a wreck without you in it . the company 's a disaster . i 'm so sorry , dad . i would do anything to make it up to you . please say you 'll forgive me . please . victor : [ muffled groan ] [ breathing heavily ] [ groaning ] [ breathing heavily ] [ groaning ] [ weak groan ] [ next_on ] jack : maybe the best way to calm the waters is to help them find some way to get back together . phyllis : that 's a terrible idea . victoria : flowers for newman 's funeral ? could you please get them out of here ? billy : not until you hear me out . nikki : you do n't know ? somebody tried to kill your father . | sharon and dylan talked to the nurse that helped steal baby christian . she tells dylan that dr. anderson called her to check on baby sully 's condition after he was born at fairview . sharon is still suspicious that the nurse is n't telling them something about the night baby sully was born . | <s>[INST] sharon : i do n't remember dr. anderson mentioning a nurse being there for sully 's delivery . dylan : makes sense that she would have some kind of help . sharon : but that 's just it . i do n't think she worked at fairview . her scrubs were a different color , and she wore this badge . dylan : do you remember anything else ? sharon : it may have had a gc memorial logo on it . [ gasps ] dylan : what ? what is it ? sharon : this might sound weird , but i 've got the feeling that they had some sort of connection . dylan : this nurse could be the one person who can tell us what was going on in dr. anderson 's head . shawn : i do n't want him to go . please . nick : david just needs to go for tests . they 're gon na make sure he 's okay . sage : it 's a standard procedure , shawn . it 's gon na be all right . shawn : do n't take him , please . nurse stephens : babies born early could have minor complications . we just want to make sure he 's healthy . nurse stephens : there were ... complications . sage : what do you mean , complications ? what do you mean , complications ? no . sage : [ gasps ] nick : hey , you okay ? nurse stephens : as soon as the blood tests are done , you can see your son . shawn : no . i wo n't . once i sign the adoption papers , i 'll never see him again . so sorry i was late , but i have some follow - up questions . jack : and we 'd love to answer them . we 'll be right with you , okay ? excuse us . okay , we are pulling the plug . this pass key launch is ended . phyllis : we ca n't . the site is live . jack : we are in damage control right now . we are not moving forward until you straighten things out with victoria . billy : jack , does it look like she 's open to working things out with me right now ? jack : she just told the world jabot is guilty of the worst kind of theft . phyllis : no , you know what the worst kind of theft is ? when someone steals your husband and puts a psycho drug dealer in his place . jack : you 're not helping . phyllis : pass key is ours , and we are not gon na let victoria 's tantrum stop us . billy : i agree . best case -- it adds to the buzz . jack : so that 's the kind of publicity jabot can look forward to ? tabloid sensationalism ? billy : whatever sells the product , jack . jack : you better start taking this seriously . find victoria . apologize . and if you love her , as i believe you do , work it out ! not just for the company -- for yourself , for your future , for your family . victoria : oh . good . you 're here . michael : all right , stop right there . if you plan on lecturing me about betraying your father 's trust , i want you to know that at this very moment , the bar association is getting me disbarred , so if you 'd like to lay anything on top of that -- insults , comments about my character or the lack thereof -- you lay it on me now ! victoria : michael ! what if i offered you a half a million dollars to come back to newman ? victor : i wondered how long it would take you to show your face . ian : [ chuckles ] i bet you wish you 'd killed me when you had the chance . nick : look , they just have to give david some tests to make sure he 's healthy . that 's what we want , right ? it 's what we all want . shawn : yeah . nick : attagirl . shawn : wait . i love you , david . [ sobs ] nick : hey , hey , hey . he 's gon na be okay . everything 's gon na be okay . shawn : you 're his family now . i 'll be nothing to him . nobody . sage : shawn . shawn : [ sniffles ] sage : shawn . look at me . you know what ? this does n't have to be goodbye . shawn : you 'll send pictures ? let me friend him online ? it 'll just be harder . [ sobs ] sage : how about a new agreement ? you can be a part of david 's life . he 'll always know that you brought him into the world . how about an open adoption ? what do you say ? sharon : i always assumed that dr. anderson was using me , treating me to play out her obsession with nick , but what if i was a target , too ? dylan : okay , let 's not go there yet , okay ? the nurse is a great step . let 's just take it one step at a time . sharon : [ sighs ] i - i trusted her with everything . if this was some crazy revenge scheme -- dylan : hold on , hold on . let 's not get worked up . sharon : one step at a time . dylan : one step -- yes . and i think our next step is to find the nurse . sharon : how ? i do n't even know her name . dylan : do you remember her face ? sharon : absolutely . dylan : okay . then we 're gon na check all the personnel files at the hospital , see what we can come up with . sharon : i 'm afraid of what we 're gon na find . dylan : hey , we get this nurse , we get some answers , and your nightmares are gon na be over for good . billy : you want to apologize for what ? being brilliant ? jack : before tonight , there was talk of actual peace between newman and jabot . you just blew that out of the water with this launch . billy : phyllis and i just saved jabot . we 're no longer just cosmetics . we 're a world player now , and you want to put the brakes on because why ? victoria 's feelings are hurt ? jack : put pass key aside and revenge and newman . this is about you and the woman you love . phyllis : and maybe a little bit about her not suing the hell out of jabot . jack : yeah , fine . you want to hand this to the lawyers ? billy , talk to victoria . work this out . can you do that ? billy : i got a better idea . double scotch on the rocks , please . jack : no . phyllis : billy . billy : it 's too late . jack : too late ? is it too late for your kids to hope to have a home where their mother and father live under the same roof ? billy : i 'm just being realistic , jack . jabot won , all right ? that 's a good thing . nothing 's gon na make it better for victoria . phyllis : how about we table this discussion , gentlemen ? hello ! i know you 're busy , but about those questions ? jack : we are just finishing up . i promise you we will get back to you . billy : wow . look at that . see ? little buzz keeps them coming back for more . maybe i should get slapped a little bit more . jack : you start taking this seriously . billy ! do not bring down jabot 's name with another bender . do not crash outside . do not make an ass of yourself . you have done quite enough damage tonight already . ian : sorry there was n't a basket of muffins waiting for you , but , uh , i could procure one for you if you 'd like . [ chuckles ] victor : get out . ian : ohh , victor , is that any way to speak to someone with whom you 've shared so much ? how is nikki ? victor : do n't ever mention her name again . ian : oh . those flashing eyes . that temper . god , i missed that . but that 's exactly a thing to get you in trouble around here . you know , i have some pull around here , victor . victor : hmm . ian : yeah , the boys consider me to be a paragon of respectability and power . [ chuckles ] you can think of me as a kind of , um , magical mystery tour guide . [ chuckles ] victor : what do you want ? ian : it 's not what i want . it 's what i can do for you . you 're gon na need protection . now , i know you think you can take care of yourself . i saw your cell mate in solitary with that beautiful shiner you gave him . but surely you realize there are bigger and tougher guys in here than poor bobby . you 're gon na have to accept the fact you 're no longer master of the universe , victor . all your wealth and power you had on the outside just makes you a bigger target here in the inside . if you 're gon na survive ... you need me . [ both chuckle ] shawn : i could get to know david , spend time with him ? sage : you gave birth to a beautiful boy . you trusted us to raise him . we all love him . why not share ? shawn : wow . i do n't know what to say . sage : will you think about it ? shawn : yeah . nick : we 'll let you get some rest . sage : it 's gon na be all right , shawn . trust me . [ door closes ] nick : i just want to make sure i heard what i thought i heard in there . open adoption ? so , shawn 's gon na be a part of david 's life ? sage : yeah . nick : are you sure about that ? sage : i 'm sure . nick : okay , i - i mean , okay , but if -- if you 're offering that in , like , the heat of the moment , i need to know , because that 's not something you can take back . it 'd be extremely cruel . sage : i think what would be more cruel is if shawn signs adoption papers and has to walk away from the son that she loves . nick : i know you 've been concerned she might change her mind . sage : nick , this is -- this is a good solution . nick : how did you get to this ? i mean , we have n't even talked about it . sage : did you see the nurse who took david away ? nick : no . sage : that 's the same nurse that told us about christian . remember ? well , she mentioned the word complication to shawn , and that 's the same word that she said to us . and i just thought there is no way in hell that i could take a baby away from another mother . sharon : instant access to the hospital personnel files . that mcavoy charm works every time . dylan : this time the badge did the work . official police business . sharon : i thought the case was closed , though . dylan : well , uh , until i get some answers , i consider it open . any luck ? sharon : not so far . wait . that 's her . dylan : which one ? sharon : no . right there . dylan : are you sure ? sharon : positive . let 's go talk to her . dylan : okay , hold on . hold on . chances are she 'll speak to me more freely without you being present . sharon : yeah , you 're right . okay , you do that mcavoy charm thing you do . dylan : um , excuse me , ma'am ? hi . detective mcavoy , gcpd . i 'd like to ask you some questions . jack : i think we need to get billy out of here before he says another word to the press . phyllis : i will get him in a cab . he 'll listen to me . jack : okay , i think you should take the lead . i will support you all the way . let 's go . lois : jack abbott , you are going to answer my questions ! jack : i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry it 's taken so long for you to talk with us . how can i help you ? lois : ms. newman 's allegations are very serious . are there any truth to them ? jack : no , this is not the abbott - newman feud rearing its ugly head for another round . no , victoria and i are deeply committed to peace between the companies and the families . what you witnessed was victoria 's very emotional response to her father 's incarceration . phyllis : whatever conflict our families may have in the business world , the abbotts feel that the newman family is justified . we are committed to working everything out amicably . lois : she called your brother a liar and a thief . jack : did she ? it 's lois , is n't it ? lois : yes , lois . jack : lois , let 's -- let 's talk . what you saw was victoria in a very difficult moment in her life . she 's under a lot of pressure right now . billy : perfect timing . phyllis : [ sighs ] billy : what do you say we grab a bottle and light this town on fire ? phyllis : how about you just turn it in for the night ? grab a computer and see how pass key changes the world and our bank accounts . billy : there 's plenty of time for that . tonight i 'm celebrating . phyllis : everybody knows what happens when you celebrate , billy . billy : hmm ? no , i mean , i - i got a ride home . i do n't plan on running into anybody that 's gon na want to punch me or that i 'm gon na want to punch . it 's all good . so why do n't you join me ? tonight 's about us . phyllis : i will pass . we will celebrate , but tonight i need to stay with my husband . i think he needs me . billy : [ fake snores ] so boring . well , if you change your mind , you know where to find me . jack : i have feuded with her father for years , but victoria and i are in a very good place right now . michael : this is some salary . i ca n't wait to hear the job description . victoria : you would be a consultant . your first requirement would be loyalty -- not to my father , obviously . to me . michael : why would you hire a man who just tried to pull something over on your father and then ask for his loyalty ? there 's got to be a punchline in there somewhere . victoria : you know , the way i see it , michael , you owe me and the company . i want to go after the abbotts . michael : oh . right . as in phyllis abbott , my friend and co - conspirator against your father ? no , that 's ridiculous . victoria : michael , wait a second . just wait a second , will you ? i 'm not sure if you 're aware of this , but jabot just launched a groundbreaking internet- security program . it 's a multi - billion - dollar idea that was stolen from newman . michael : pass key . my brother 's been excited about this project for a long time . victoria : yes , yes ! my father acquired it legally . billy stole it . phyllis helped him . fraud , corporate espionage , and theft . i want to sue jabot . i want to sue every abbott that comes in my sight . michael : i have a feeling that there 's only one abbott that could get you this worked up . victoria : okay , michael , do you want the job or not ? look , phyllis did n't do you any favors . the abbotts left you out to dry . michael : so this is my revenge ? victoria : it 's a chance for you to right a wrong . michael : i 'm about to be disbarred ! victoria : i do n't care about that , michael . you 're the most brilliant legal mind that we have in this state . i do n't care if you ca n't practice law . you can advise newman attorneys . michael : hmm . all right , for kicks and giggles , what other proof do you have ? victoria : i have a lot of dots , okay ? it 's your job to connect them . michael : okay , if i were to accept your very generous offer , my first task would be to advise you to consider what you 're starting . victoria : they started it . michael : jabot may have committed illegal activities , and if they have , charges could be brought . but , victoria , do you really want to send somebody else you care about to prison ? victoria : michael , no , i do n't want the father of my children to go to prison , but i would n't hesitate threatening him to get what 's rightfully mine . michael : hmm . there are other people involved in this , including my own brother . victoria : i would never force you to go after kevin . but he might have information that we can use , and you would be the person to get that from him . and then there 's summer . she knew that billy was secretly communicating with natalie . michael : and now we 're dragging phyllis ' daughter into this ? victoria : she dragged her daughter into the middle of this when she teamed up to steal pass key with billy . michael : you know , i need to get one thing clear . this was billy 's originally . this was billy 's project , correct ? victoria : no ! you 're not correct . he did n't have the capital for it . he lost the deal . he practically died trying to get the money for this deal ! he swore to me that he would n't pursue it ! he put a ring on my finger ! he vowed that he was gon na be a new man ! he 's been lying to me , michael . michael : this sounds like a vendetta . victoria : well , what if it is ? michael : a very personal one . look , you know what ? free advice . court is the last resort . the best way to resolve this is talking . victoria : it 's too late for that . michael : no , no , no ! you sit down , face to face ! you look at the facts ! you work it out ! you find a settlement ! look , diplomacy first , victoria . victoria : he 's just gon na lie to me again , michael . michael : [ sighs ] before you throw a lot of money at lawyers to go into battle for something you can not win , just think . think about it . we 'll talk soon . victoria : [ sighs ] i know what you would do in this situation . you would have already launched a full - scale attack . i 'm not you , dad . i always dreamed that i 'd run this company differently . no more wars , no more hurting people that i care about . victor : i do n't need you for anything . ian : [ chuckles ] sticks and stones , victor . sticks and stones . let -- let me explain it to you in terms that you 'll understand , all right ? there 's a food chain in here . and you -- you 're way down there somewhere with the earthworms and the woodlice . me ? i 'm king kong . [ chuckles ] go figure , right ? i mean , the people in here , they look up to me . so my advice to you would be show some respect . i see . you need time to think , huh ? [ chuckles ] victor : my advice to you ... do n't bother me . i wo n't bother you , okay ? ian : well , that 's not exactly how it works , victor . victor : listen to me . listen carefully . i do n't give a damn how you think it works . it is how i work . now , you stay the hell away from me . understand that ? otherwise you 're gon na have big problems . i assure you . ian : huh . victor : you no good son of a bitch . ian : well , you do n't have any family in here . you have no company in here , no friends . you 're all alone ! you 're all alone ! nick : yeah , this open - adoption thing -- it sounds amazing . sage : [ sighs ] nick : it may not be easy . we 're gon na have a lot of stuff to figure out . sage : i do n't even know where to start , but i know we can do it together . nick : we can do it . sharon : hi , guys . sage : hey , sharon . what are you doing here ? sharon : um , how 's the baby ? nick : he 's , uh , he 's tiny , but he 's strong , breathing on his own . everything 's green lights . sharon : that 's so good to hear . and , again , if i did anything that may have led shawn to changing her mind , i am so sorry . sage : it 's okay . sharon , it does n't matter anymore because the adoption is happening . sharon : that 's the best news ! sage : it 's not how we planned it , but i 'm gon na be a mom . nick : yeah , you are . dylan : you heard about dr. sandy anderson ? nurse stephens : of course . it 's so tragic . a patient attacked her out of the blue , was n't it ? dylan : yeah , we 're trying to find out . uh , the patient 's name is patty williams . she suffered a psychotic break . nurse stephens : poor woman . dylan : yeah , so what i 'm trying to determine is if the break happened before she killed dr. anderson or it was a result of the attack . nurse stephens : you think the patient might have been sane when she stabbed the doctor ? dylan : i 'm looking into the possibility that ms . williams may have acted on a motive . and actually , i was hoping that you can clear some of those things up for me . nurse stephens : me ? dylan : yeah . nurse stephens : i 'm not sure how i can help . i - i did n't know the patient . i did n't work at fairview . dylan : then why were you there the night sharon mcavoy went into labor ? nurse stephens : dr. anderson called to alert the hospital when her patient went into labor , but it happened so quickly , she made the delivery herself . dylan : hmm . then why were you at fairview that night ? nurse stephens : i 'm a neonatal nurse . she asked me to examine the child . dylan : oh , okay . is that standard procedure ? nurse stephens : uh , standard procedure typically means transferring mother and child to a hospital , but this was a unique situation . dylan : did you notice anything out of the ordinary while you were there ? nurse stephens : not that i can recall . dylan : did you know dr. anderson well ? nurse stephens : i just happened to pick up the ward phone that night . dylan : did she say or do anything that seemed suspicious to you ? nurse stephens : she was a consummate professional , concerned only with her patients ' welfare . dylan : did she ever mention the name nicholas newman ? nurse stephens : i 'm curious , detective mcavoy . how is the birth of one patient 's baby related to another patient stabbing the doctor ? dylan : uh , like i said , i 'm just trying to find answers wherever i can . nurse stephens : it 's reassuring to know our police force is so dedicated . though i assume your dedication springs from something more ? the amateur detective in me ca n't help wondering if you 're related to sharon mcavoy . dylan : yeah , she 's my wife . nurse stephens : this must be a very personal case for you , detective . dylan : uh , yeah , it is . it is . so if there 's anything that you can remember at all , it would be a great help . nurse stephens : i remember examining your little boy . he was perfect . you should consider yourself very lucky to have brought home such a healthy , beautiful baby . some parents are n't that fortunate . excuse me . nick : you know , i think i 'm gon na go try and find , like , a pudding cup for shawn or something . sage : oh , sweet . nick : okay . sharon : that baby is so lucky to have you and nick as parents . sage : we 're the lucky ones . um , i 'm gon na go check on david and see how long those tests are gon na take , so ... sharon : oh , wait , sage . i 'm curious what you said before . so , the adoption 's on but not as planned ? sage : well , sharon , you know , we 've grown to love shawn , and this decision 's really hard for her , so we decided to make it an open adoption . sharon : so shawn will be able to have a relationship with david ? sage : yeah . i mean , there will be parameters , of course , but she 'll definitely be a part of his life . sharon : wow . what a gift , getting to watch her son grow up . i ca n't help wondering how things might have been different if i 'd gotten to be a second mom to cassie when she was young . sage : well , shawn 's not going to be a second mom . i 'll be the only one that david calls `` mom . `` jack : the best thing you can do right now is download pass key for yourself . make sure that all the data you have is not hacked by the competition . ahh ! jack abbott ! [ laughs ] jack : [ sighs ] phyllis : you 're a master . jack : with everyone except my brother , it seems . phyllis : yeah , he said that he had some celebrating to do . although it seemed like he was more in mourning . jack : because tonight 's about more than pass key and beating victor . phyllis : it was about losing victoria . i do n't want to lose you . jack : i love you . phyllis : and i 'm in pain . and i know that . and wanting victor 's head on a platter with all the blood and guts and destruction -- jack : no one has ever accused you of half measures . phyllis : i thought it was gon na feel a little bit better , you know ? [ sighs ] you know , do n't get me wrong . it feels pretty amazing , but launching pass key and beating victor at his own game and knowing that he 's finally behind bars , you know , none of it matters if i do n't have you . jack : i 'm here , red . phyllis : the things i said about wanting to blow victor 's empire to pieces and leaving him in the rubble , i 'd give all that up if that 's what you want . billy : `` pass key will change the cyber playing field forever . we look forward to great things from jabot and billy abbott . `` yes ! [ knock on door ] [ imitates crowd cheering ] billy : [ sighs ] i knew you could n't stay away , partner . victoria : may i come in ? billy : yeah . yeah . yeah , yeah . come in . victoria : oh . just you and your tablet . i thought the abbotts would be partying all night long . billy : well , you know me . i like to celebrate alone . would you like some champagne ? victoria : no , thank you . billy : it 's great to see you . i mean , it takes a big person to admit when they 're wrong , so it 's ... i accept your apology . victoria : i did n't come here to apologize . shawn : so , this open - adoption thing , it 's for real ? nick : absolutely . shawn : how would it work ? nick : honestly , i have no idea . but we 'll make it work . i think we have to have one rule , though . and that is we all do our best and love david and do what is best for him . shawn : i wonder if it gets weird . nick : well , the good thing for us is weird is my specialty . shawn : [ chuckles ] nick : you know , it may not be easy . it 's definitely uncharted territory . but i think we all can work together and give david the kind of life we want for him . how do you like the idea ? shawn : i think it 's cool . i mean ... i knew it would be hard to give him up , but then when i saw him and he 's so tiny and fighting so hard ... i just wanted to hold him , protect him . nick : well , now , you know , you get to be a part of his life , watch him grow up , make sure he 's okay . shawn : yeah . nick : i just do n't want you to think that we 're forcing this on you . shawn : we have a deal . you 're adopting david . you guys have been so great . i 'd never want to hurt you . nick : well , forget about us . what do you want , shawn ? jack : your fire is one of the things i love most about you . it 's just sometimes it gets so hot , i worry . phyllis : well , maybe you should talk to the person who stands too close , like michael . jack : i feel bad about what happened with michael , but , you know , he walked into this eyes wide open . i know you feel bad , too . but i also know you have the biggest heart of anyone i know and the most passion , the greatest courage , and it 's what makes you you and what makes us ... phyllis : unbeatable ? jack : yeah . something like that . i can not tell you how much it means to me that you 're putting this vendetta behind you . phyllis : i do n't want what happened to victoria and billy to happen to us . it 's taken me a long time to get here , but i 'm here with you . this is where i want to be the rest of my life . ian : easy . victor wants to be left alone . make sure he is . like it or not , i 'm gon na protect you . billy : so , did you come all the way over here to slap the other side of my face ? victoria : i want to suggest a compromise . billy : you could have picked up the phone for that . victoria : i know that , but face to face is better . billy : i agree , when it 's your beautiful face . victoria : i think that newman and jabot should share ownership of pass key . they should split the profits down the middle . it 's in line with your original offer . billy : in line ? it 's actually exactly what i offered , and you rejected it . victoria : i changed my mind . billy : well , it 's just kind of confusing because what happened to `` war `` ? victoria : i made a commitment to stop this feud between our families , billy . billy : that 's funny , because the slap kind of felt like `` bring it on . `` victoria : i was angry , okay ? i needed some time to think about it . billy : hmm . victoria : that 's not what i want . i want peace . billy : i think i know what you want . i agree 100 % . victoria : good . good , good , good . so , then you know that a co - venture would be a very prudent move . billy : yes . co - venture -- very prudent move , bringing in the abbotts and the newmans together , especially a certain newman and a certain abbott . victoria : somehow i do n't think we 're on the same page right now . billy : i think we 're on the same page . we 're talking about a merger , right ? dylan : okay , thanks for the information . sharon : hi . hey . so , what did the nurse say ? dylan : uh , nurse stephens confirmed that she was at fairview that night to check on sully . sharon : and ? dylan : there 's nothing more than that . she said dr. anderson was perfectly professional and everything was above board . sharon : the feeling i get when i remember her , that `` hairs on the back of my neck `` feeling , maybe she 's lying . dylan : i mean , she seemed pretty straightforward . and i checked on her work record . she 's a star . sharon : so was dr. anderson . and look how she turned out . sage : oh , my gosh ! i just saw david . he 's doing so well . he 's gon na be out of the incubator tomorrow . i ca n't wait to hold him and smell his little baby skin and kiss his little fingers and ... nick : that 's great news . sage : what 's wrong ? nick : uh ... sage : did you talk to shawn ? is -- is she asking questions about the open adoption or something ? nick : she did n't say a whole lot . sage : okay , well , she probably does n't know what questions to ask . i mean , it 's new for all of us . what ? nick : [ sighs ] i do n't want to say it . [ chuckles ] sage : then do n't say it . nick : i think shawn might be changing her mind . sage : no . that 's not possible because i offered a perfect solution . i 'm just gon na talk to her about it . nick : no , listen , she -- she did n't say one way or the other . sage : okay , good , because then that means there 's hope . so i 'm just gon na clarify with her and explain everything , and she 's -- nick : no . do n't do that . sage : why ? nick : because the more we push , the greater the chance is we push her away . sage : how do you know that ? nick : just give her time , sage . it does n't matter how much we love that baby . there 's only so much we can do . it 's still shawn 's decision . phyllis : i 'm so sorry . i 'm sorry that i spun out of control over victor . i ... i would never do anything to hurt this family . i would n't . i - i just -- i get so worked up sometimes , you know ? jack : i know that . and no one would blame you after everything that victor put you through . phyllis : put us through . now what ? jack : now we look ahead . phyllis : pass key ? jack : i fear the damage from pass key has already been done , unless billy can find a way to get through to victoria . victoria : oh ! what are you doing ? billy : working on my co - venture with you . hey , if you ask me , i think it 's going pretty well . victoria : i came by to make a business proposal , clean and simple . that 's all . billy : i do n't want to do clean . let 's not do clean . victoria : god , you 're drunk . of course ! of course you 're drunk ! yes , you 're drunk . billy : i 'm the man that i said i was gon na be , victoria . i 'm successful , the top of my game . you should read what they 're saying about me . it 's pretty impressive . victoria : all i see is the same , old billy . maybe you ought to sleep this off . billy : let me ask you a question . are you mad because i 'm a success or are you mad because i beat your daddy ? victoria : i do n't even know why i bothered coming by . billy : vick -- victoria : see you in court ! billy : vick ! victoria : [ sighs ] dad . you 're out . i 'm so glad to see you . victor : are you forgetting that you lead the charge to put me inside those prison walls ? victoria : i 'm so sorry . can you please forgive me ? i 've missed you every single day . my life is such a wreck without you in it . the company 's a disaster . i 'm so sorry , dad . i would do anything to make it up to you . please say you 'll forgive me . please . victor : [ muffled groan ] [ breathing heavily ] [ groaning ] [ breathing heavily ] [ groaning ] [ weak groan ] [ next_on ] jack : maybe the best way to calm the waters is to help them find some way to get back together . phyllis : that 's a terrible idea . victoria : flowers for newman 's funeral ? could you please get them out of here ? billy : not until you hear me out . nikki : you do n't know ? somebody tried to kill your father .Summarize.[/INST]sharon and dylan talked to the nurse that helped steal baby christian . she tells dylan that dr. anderson called her to check on baby sully 's condition after he was born at fairview . sharon is still suspicious that the nurse is n't telling them something about the night baby sully was born .</s> | 16,786 |
lucky : i can explain everything . karen : clearly there 's been some mistake . go away now and do n't come back . lucky : listen , i ca n't do that , ma'am . i 'm sorry , but my kidnapped child is in here . i 'm very sorry about your baby . i can only imagine what you and his mother must be feeling . but pablo is my son , not yours . lucky : i wonder if you can really imagine , ok ? i 'd like you to just try . ask yourself , how would you feel if your newborn was taken ? that someone took him leaving nothing behind . no clues , no ransom note . to know that the child you carried for 9 months and got to hold only is just ... gone , just vanished without a trace . ok ? and now suppose that you found him ? would you be able to walk away ? epiphany : i 'm sorry to call you back in like this , but , uh , she insisted on talking to you . elizabeth : who is that ? epiphany : i do n't know . she asked for you by name . elizabeth : thank you . epiphany : yeah . elizabeth : excuse me . hi . i 'm elizabeth webber . do we know each other ? marny : marny babcock . i believe you were my mother 's nurse . elizabeth : babcock ... no , i 'm sorry , i do n't -- marny : shirley smith -- you did care for her ? elizabeth : oh , yeah . yeah , i did care for shirley as a nurse and a friend . she was an exceptional woman . i 'm really sorry for -- marny : do n't waste your sympathy . i barely saw my mother when she was alive . i 'm certainly not going to pretend to be grief - stricken now that she 's dead . brook lynn : excuse me . i have a question . why the sudden hurry ? carly : hurry ? you 've been in town for months cashing my checks , producing zero results . brook lynn : yes , because dante is in a relationship . you did n't tell me that , and it complicates things . carly : i 'm sick of the excuses . i 'm the one with the money , which means i call the shots , and i say we go now . lulu and michael will be here having a family dinner with me . your way to dante will be clear . you make it happen . you get dante into bed with evidence to prove it , or you are on the next bus to bensonhurst . brook lynn : right , because you got this all figured out . did you think about this ? what if dante 's not seducible ? what if he 's completely faithful to lulu ? sonny : brenda ? marny : i 've been hugely inconvenienced . elizabeth : inconvenienced by your mother 's death ? marny : yes . everything falls on me because my brother is worthless . i had to cut short a very important business meeting to detour to this ... burg to clear my mother 's paperwork and to collect her no doubt meager belongings . but this hospital is treating them like they 're the holy grail . elizabeth : i 'm sorry , i 'm having a really hard time following . what is the nature of your problem , and how may i help you ? marny : do you people talk to each other ? i was told that the hospital would n't release my mother 's property until i 'd spoken to you . elizabeth : oh . of course . i know what this is about . your mom was working on a new jewelry collection when she passed , and i took if for safekeeping , but of course you should have it . marny : you 're joking , right ? i 've gone to all this trouble to end up with my mother 's awful jewelry ? she sent me a piece . big clunky monstrosity of a necklace . are you sure that mother did n't have a touch of dementia , because she would have to be delusional to think that -- elizabeth : excuse me . your mother was an exceptional , amazing person . she was the most loving and inspirational woman i have ever met . who cares whether her jewelry was nice or not ? it was an expression of her heart and her spirit , which happened to be huge , by the way . i 've taken care of a lot of patients , and i 've never seen anyone face imminent death with such courage and grace and humor . so how dare you speak of her with such contempt . marny : you would have to understand how -- elizabeth : no , you need to understand that when i met your mom , i was going through a really hard time , and she 's the only person who got me through it . and will forever be grateful for her guidance and her wisdom . yes , i know she was n't perfect , but that does not justify this self - absorbed reaction to her death . lucky : feel free to call the pcpd . i 'm sure they 'll verify my identity . karen : i believe you 're a cop . what i do n't believe is that pablo is your kidnapped son . he would n't just ... lucky : your son bobby arranged the adoption , did n't he ? karen : yes . but i 've seen the paperwork . everything is legal . bobby 's very thorough that way . lucky : listen , i 'm not saying that anything malicious happened here . ok ? i think that maybe bobby was deceived as well . i mean , obviously he would never arrange for you to adopt a kidnapped child . so , whoever gave aiden to bobby must have lied to him . karen : it would have to be that way , if any of this is true . lucky : well , it is . and i 'm so sorry . you see , aiden was just born , and someone took him from the nursery , away from his -- his father and mother . away from his brothers . his real family . i can tell you 're a good person , and i know that you would be a wonderful , wonderful mother , and you would give aiden an incredible life . but ... you 're not his real mom . and she did n't give him away . so , please ... give us back our child . brook lynn : i 'm not making excuses . i 'm just telling you how it is . i 've come on to dante , subtle but unmistakable , and he does n't bite . he 's devoted to lulu , all right ? and she does n't leave him alone , not for one second . it 's not 'cause he wants her to , so for him she 's the only woman in the world . carly : have you always been this insecure ? brook lynn : i 'm not insecure , carly , i 'm being realistic . you know , you sit here in your fancy hotel issuing demands and ultimatums , but i 'm the one down there in the trenches . i see them every single day , up close and personal , and i 'm telling you , your plan 's not gon na work . carly : do you like the way you 're living ? trendy apartment , fancy clothes , money in your pocket . brook lynn : yeah , of course i do . why would n't i ? carly : if you want to keep it , you 'll make this plan work . brook lynn : how ? how do you want me to do that ? carly : god , think ! you 're a beautiful woman . dante is a man . use your sexuality . it 's all about proximity , and you live right across the hall from the guy thanks to me . you plant yourself on his lap and we 'll see how faithful he is to lulu . brook lynn : dante is not a cheater . carly : hell . he 's his father 's son , and no one 's more devoted to the woman of the moment than sonny , until the next one comes along . dante will love being pursued . tell him he 's brilliant . tell him he 's sexy . tell him he 's an amazing cop . i do n't care how you do it . you get him into bed and do n't forget the pictures . olivia : what pictures ? johnny : jason back in pentonville ? dante : signed , sealed , and delivered . look , i came back because i have time to listen to you now . i do want to hear your side of the story , john . if you have proof that someone else , namely sonny , killed lopez , i want to hear it . johnny : i 'm not saying anything . you 're just gon na end up using it to strengthen sonny 's defense . and i called my lawyers . they 're gon na get me out of here . dante : man , you 're all wrong about me . johnny : i 'm not surprised to hear you say that . you 've been sucked so far up into the sonny vortex that you ca n't even see it . you 're so completely invested in believing that sonny is this good guy , as opposed to the amoral s.o.b . that he really is . [ foghorn sounds ] sonny : what are you doing , claire ? claire : what do you mean ? sonny : no , it 's just that you looked like somebody i used to know . i just did n't recognize you 'cause i -- you know , you dressing like you 're dressed right there ... claire : what ? what ? i ca n't , uh , dress casual on occasion ? sonny : it was n't a criticism . you 're a beautiful woman , and , you know ... you 've loosened up , relaxed a bit . it 's almost human . claire : oh . sonny : i mean compared to the -- like your business suit armor . claire : right , right , right . cleaning up . sonny : yeah . yeah . so what are you doing here ? you hoping to run into me ? running into you n claire : you know , i really hate to puncture that big fat ego of yours , but , um , the idea of running into you never crossed my mind . no , i really like coming to the docks . fresh air . after a long day at work , it really clears my head . but it seems the weather 's kind of turning , right , and it 's a little bit cold ? sonny : yeah , yeah , it looks like it 's gon na rain . claire : well , then , i think i 'm gon na head home . sonny : wait , wait , wait , wait . sonny : why do n't you come over to my place , have a glass of wine . it 'll warm you up . claire : i do n't think so . sonny : what are you afraid of ? to be alone with me without your armor ? claire : you know , you 're not nearly as irresistible as you think . sonny : then what 's the problem ? claire : ok . dante : i came to port charles with one goal -- to take down sonny corinthos . that did n't change when he turned out to be my father . if you have real proof to give me that sonny killed tomas lopez , i will run with it . johnny : i 'm sorry , i 'm just not buying it . look , dante , in all seriousness , when you came to port charles , you were still the intrepid detective , dedicated to your mission to infiltrate the corinthos organization and bring it down from the inside out . and , man , you played your cards right . you got jason 's attention and you got access . but that 's where it all went downhill . you got snowed by sonny . he started laying it on , that sonny charm , like sonny does . and you started thinking to yourself , hey , maybe he is n't such a bad guy . he 's good with his kids . he loves his kids . and when it turned out that you were one of his kids , hell , you have n't had any objectivity since . dante : well , i can see that this conversation is n't going to go anywhere . if you decide you want to talk , i 'm willing to listen . carly : what makes you think you have a right to join in on my personal conversations ? olivia : yeah , sorry , it 's a leftover reflex from when we used to be friends . carly : well , since it 's business related , i 'll let you know . i wanted to take pictures of brook lynn while she 's on stage singing so we can put it on the website . olivia : i do n't know . it looked like a pretty heated conversation . why would you be fighting about something so innocuous ? carly : because she 's shy and it bugs me . and sorry i was over the top with it , but i 'm a little freaked out about johnny being arrested here in my restaurant . olivia : johnny was arrested ? carly : oh , i would think you 'd be the first person he 'd call . olivia : what are the charges ? carly : dante said something about johnny killing another mobster . what ? brook lynn : i 'm just surprised about johnny . you think he 's doing ok ? carly : ok , johnny 's not for you to worry about . stop stalling and go have sex with dante . marny : you 're completely out of line . i want to speak to your superiors . elizabeth : well , i 'm sorry , but this is personal , between you and me , about a woman you should have a little more respect for . marny : that 's easy for you to say . shirley was n't your mother . she did n't abandon you and your family to run off with her first love and chase her dreams . what about us ? what about the kids that she brought into this world who did n't ask to be here , the husband that she swore to love forever ? elizabeth : she made the best choice she could at the time . marny : yeah , that 's what she said . it 's a copout , and not a very convincing one at that . elizabeth : would you rather she 'd stayed , resenting all of you and being miserable for the rest of her life ? you know , she felt a lot of guilt over leaving you . marny : she talked about us ? elizabeth : she had a lot of regrets . have n't you ever made a mistake and just did the best you could to pick up the pieces and try to get on with your life ? marny , do yourself a favor . put the bad part of the past behind you . take the jewelry . throw it in the back of the closet for now if you want , but i promise you , one day you 'll be glad you did . epiphany . this is shirley smith 's daughter marny . epiphany : oh . pleased to meet you . we thought very highly of mrs . smith around here . is there anything i can do to help ? marny : i 'd like my mother 's jewelry . epiphany : well , let 's see what we can do about that . follow me . marny : thank you . nikolas : hey . ready to face the boys about aiden ? elizabeth : yeah . nikolas : ok , let 's go . lucky : elizabeth and i fell in love when we were teenagers . and there was never anyone else for me . not really . not in a way that matters . it has n't been easy . there have been many ups and downs , splits and reconciliations . but over the years , elizabeth and i managed to create a family . yeah , that -- that pull was very strong for both of us . anyway , we were at the point where we were ready to give it another try . you know , remarry , the whole nine yards . but it did n't work . we did n't feel the same way about each other , and she , uh , she turned to my brother and had an affair . karen : oh , i 'm sorry . that must have been painful for you . lucky : it was . laid me flat . but then , we found out that she was pregnant , and it could have easily been my brother 's kid . but we got a miracle . aiden turned out to be mine . see , that 's his name . aiden . he was 7 pounds , 6 ounces , and 21 inches at birth . you know , i could see before ... how much he 's growing . you know , his parents missed all that . elizabeth and i will never get those moments back . i understand that . that 's just -- that 's just the way it is . but , see ... we just do n't want to lose any more . ok ? and , karen , listen to me . i understand none of this , none of this is your fault . but i 'm begging you , please , let me take my son home . aiden , then you 're pablo . lucky : these first days in the world must be confusing , huh ? no one can even settle on a name . your parents name you aiden , then you 're pablo . and i 'll be no other newborn 's logged in as many travel miles as you . that 's all gon na settle now . and you 're gon na find out how loved you are . and we 're a motley crew , but at our core , we 're not so bad . you could do a lot worse for family . which reminds me , i probably should warn you , there is a scary branch . it 's your dad 's side , called the cassadines . you got a grandmother that 's straight out of hell , kiddo . but the other side , the spencers , which also includes your dad , well , we try to balance things out a bit . it usually works out ok . flight attendant : you have a beautiful baby . lucky : oh . yeah . i think so , too . dante : you 're here . lulu : not for long . dante : well , then come here and give me a kiss . mmm . lulu : mmm . dante : where are you going ? going to see kate ? lulu : no . carly wants to have dinner with me and michael and she called family time , so i feel like i got ta go . dante : well , that 's good . i mean , she 's reaching out , right ? lulu : how was your day ? dante : uh , well , i arrested john zacchara today . lulu : for what ? dante : evidence suggests that he murdered a guy named tomas lopez . lulu : lopez like the brothers ? the ones that put the bomb in his car ? dante : yeah , those would be the ones . lulu : but ... i do n't know , johnny 's reckless , and if it were sonny , i could see that . but i do n't know , something about this just does n't seem right . dante : yeah . well , he says that sonny framed him . lulu : that i buy . dante : would you buy that i 've been on an integrity decline ever since i found out sonny was my father ? johnny : hey . any chance you 're here to post bail ? olivia : you need me to ? johnny : no . no , my lawyers are taking care of it . olivia : what are you doing here , john ? johnny : i am appearing by special request . i got an escort and everything . he actually looked a lot like your son . olivia : i 'm glad you 're so amused by all of this . you want to tell me what happened ? johnny : i was framed for tomas lopez 's murder . i got ta hand it to sonny . he did a pretty smart job . because if the cops do n't have a tight enough case , then , well , tomas ' brother santos will come after me for revenge . for sonny it 's no muss , no fuss . olivia : so killing tomas ' looks like retaliation for the car bomb . johnny : see what a good moll you 'd make ? olivia : do you think this is funny , john ? let me tell you what 's happening here . i believe that sonny framed you . but you know what ? his frame is working , 'cause you 've been running around like a freakin ' loaded weapon for months , and any person in this town would believe you 'd go off half - cocked and kill somebody . so , basically , you 're orchestrating your own downfall , and sonny walks off smelling like a rose . and that just does n't make a lot of sense to me . claire : i , uh , have to give you points for timing . sonny : it would have been a shame to get caught in the rain and ruin that pretty dress . especially since you wore it just for me . how about a toast ? claire : to ? sonny : taking off that armor . both of us . tonight i 'm going to be a perfect gentleman , and you do n't have to lecture me about alleged criminal activities . claire : well , i 'm not dressed for it , anyway . sonny : that 's what i 'm talking about . claire : you know , um , i 'm , uh , actually dying of curiosity . sonny : about what ? claire : well , you know , over at the , uh , the docks , when you thought i was a mysterious someone else , i thought i heard you call out a name . i could n't quite hear it . sonny : brenda . claire : right . who 's brenda ? o a lucky : it kind of surprised me how easily the lie came out . i mean , i did n't even stop to think . i just ... said i was your father . figured it was the best way to get through to karen . and i wanted something immediate in her face , something tangible that , you know , there were people that you belonged to . and it worked . it worked . oh , the flight attendant ? yeah , that 's , uh , that 's another story . i guess i could have explained that i 'm not really your dad , but what 's the point , right ? i mean , what does it matter if a stranger thinks that you 're mine ? you almost were . and i know i made a lot of noise about how it 's best that nikolas turned out to be your father . and in a lot of ways it is . your mother and i , we just needed to be done . but i spent a lot of years wanting to create a life with her . so just between you and me , deep down ... i think in some way , i 'll always wish that you 'd been mine . johnny : you 're getting yourself all worked up . olivia : well , does that bother you ? really , that i would be upset that now you 've been car - bombed and framed and arrested ? johnny , it does not have to be like this . johnny : i do n't want to have this fight with you right now , please . you should not be so worried about me , by the way . you should be more worried about dante . olivia : what does that mean ? johnny : do you remember before we knew he was in town , when he was just a picture in a frame and you would go on and on about him , you 'd talk about him , brag about him ? i mean , i thought he was just a fireman . i mean , you knew what he did , and he was a man of integrity , dedicated to the badge and the oath . olivia : and so what ? johnny : so he 's not that guy anymore . sonny has compromised dante six ways from sunday , and dante does n't even see it . and that is the only thing that is between dante and a really , really hard fall . guys like him , upholders of the law , they do n't land too well when they realize that they have been corrupted by the very thing that they 've been fighting against . and when dante realizes that , when he finally snaps out of this state of denial that he 's in , when he realizes that he 's so far gone , it will destroy him . judge carroll : so how you doing , officer ? desk sergeant : just fine , judge carroll . how can i help you today ? judge carroll : i was in the neighborhood , thought i 'd save the department some time , pick up the medical records in the mcmillan case . desk sergeant : right away . judge carroll : whoa , easy ! olivia : sorry . sorry . judge carroll : oh , for pity 's sake . what the hell are you doing in here ? sonny : i finally have you here . you 're not carrying your briefcase like a chastity belt . i do n't want to waste this rare opportunity talking about other women . claire : well , i told you , i 'm not offended . i 'm curious . i mean , there was something different in your voice . maybe something urgent . something hopeful ? sonny : no -- look , you 're reading way too much into a case of mistaken identity . claire : ok . well , you know me . i 'm a research demon , so , your life is pretty well documented . so if i were to do a search with your name and brenda 's name ... sonny : fine . fine , fine . her name 's brenda barrett . we were involved a long time ago . claire : serious ? sonny : we almost married . claire : what stopped you ? sonny : i , uh , left her ... at the altar . dante : you know , johnny 's convinced that because of my relation to sonny , i 'm too compromised to do my job . i thing he 's wrong . lulu : well , i do n't know . i mean , you are conflicted when it comes to sonny . dante : you really think so ? lulu : dante , i 've seen it all the time . i mean , on one hand you 're a cop who knows sonny for who and what he is , but on the other hand , you 're a guy who 's always wanted to know your father . dante : yeah , but i would never break the law -- again -- to protect sonny . lulu : i agree , and that 's , i think , where johnny and i differ . i think that you 'll always land on the right side of the line , no matter how hard it is to get there . dante : you know , it 's moments like this where i really wonder where i 'd be without you . lulu : well , you 'd be very lost and very confused . dante : absolutely . lulu : ohh ... i could call carly and cancel . dante : no , you should go . it 'll be good . lulu : will you wait for me ?

i 'd like you to just try . ask yourself , how would you feel if your newborn was taken ? that someone took him leaving nothing behind . no clues , no ransom note . to know that the child you carried for 9 months and got to hold only is just ... gone , just vanished without a trace . ok ? and now suppose that you found him ? would you be able to walk away ? epiphany : i 'm sorry to call you back in like this , but , uh , she insisted on talking to you . elizabeth : who is that ? epiphany : i do n't know . she asked for you by name . elizabeth : thank you . epiphany : yeah . elizabeth : excuse me . hi . i 'm elizabeth webber . do we know each other ? marny : marny babcock . i believe you were my mother 's nurse . elizabeth : babcock ... no , i 'm sorry , i do n't -- marny : shirley smith -- you did care for her ? elizabeth : oh , yeah . yeah , i did care for shirley as a nurse and a friend . she was an exceptional woman . i 'm really sorry for -- marny : do n't waste your sympathy . i barely saw my mother when she was alive . i 'm certainly not going to pretend to be grief - stricken now that she 's dead . brook lynn : excuse me . i have a question . why the sudden hurry ? carly : hurry ? you 've been in town for months cashing my checks , producing zero results . brook lynn : yes , because dante is in a relationship . you did n't tell me that , and it complicates things . carly : i 'm sick of the excuses . i 'm the one with the money , which means i call the shots , and i say we go now . lulu and michael will be here having a family dinner with me . your way to dante will be clear . you make it happen . you get dante into bed with evidence to prove it , or you are on the next bus to bensonhurst . brook lynn : right , because you got this all figured out . did you think about this ? what if dante 's not seducible ? what if he 's completely faithful to lulu ? sonny : brenda ? marny : i 've been hugely inconvenienced . elizabeth : inconvenienced by your mother 's death ? marny : yes . everything falls on me because my brother is worthless . i had to cut short a very important business meeting to detour to this ... burg to clear my mother 's paperwork and to collect her no doubt meager belongings . but this hospital is treating them like they 're the holy grail . elizabeth : i 'm sorry , i 'm having a really hard time following . what is the nature of your problem , and how may i help you ? marny : do you people talk to each other ? i was told that the hospital would n't release my mother 's property until i 'd spoken to you . elizabeth : oh . of course . i know what this is about . your mom was working on a new jewelry collection when she passed , and i took if for safekeeping , but of course you should have it . marny : you 're joking , right ? i 've gone to all this trouble to end up with my mother 's awful jewelry ? she sent me a piece . big clunky monstrosity of a necklace . are you sure that mother did n't have a touch of dementia , because she would have to be delusional to think that -- elizabeth : excuse me . your mother was an exceptional , amazing person . she was the most loving and inspirational woman i have ever met . who cares whether her jewelry was nice or not ? it was an expression of her heart and her spirit , which happened to be huge , by the way . i 've taken care of a lot of patients , and i 've never seen anyone face imminent death with such courage and grace and humor . so how dare you speak of her with such contempt . marny : you would have to understand how -- elizabeth : no , you need to understand that when i met your mom , i was going through a really hard time , and she 's the only person who got me through it . and will forever be grateful for her guidance and her wisdom . yes , i know she was n't perfect , but that does not justify this self - absorbed reaction to her death . lucky : feel free to call the pcpd . i 'm sure they 'll verify my identity . karen : i believe you 're a cop . what i do n't believe is that pablo is your kidnapped son . he would n't just ... lucky : your son bobby arranged the adoption , did n't he ? karen : yes . but i 've seen the paperwork . everything is legal . bobby 's very thorough that way . lucky : listen , i 'm not saying that anything malicious happened here . ok ? i think that maybe bobby was deceived as well . i mean , obviously he would never arrange for you to adopt a kidnapped child . so , whoever gave aiden to bobby must have lied to him . karen : it would have to be that way , if any of this is true . lucky : well , it is . and i 'm so sorry . you see , aiden was just born , and someone took him from the nursery , away from his -- his father and mother . away from his brothers . his real family . i can tell you 're a good person , and i know that you would be a wonderful , wonderful mother , and you would give aiden an incredible life . but ... you 're not his real mom . and she did n't give him away . so , please ... give us back our child . brook lynn : i 'm not making excuses . i 'm just telling you how it is . i 've come on to dante , subtle but unmistakable , and he does n't bite . he 's devoted to lulu , all right ? and she does n't leave him alone , not for one second . it 's not 'cause he wants her to , so for him she 's the only woman in the world . carly : have you always been this insecure ? brook lynn : i 'm not insecure , carly , i 'm being realistic . you know , you sit here in your fancy hotel issuing demands and ultimatums , but i 'm the one down there in the trenches . i see them every single day , up close and personal , and i 'm telling you , your plan 's not gon na work . carly : do you like the way you 're living ? trendy apartment , fancy clothes , money in your pocket . brook lynn : yeah , of course i do . why would n't i ? carly : if you want to keep it , you 'll make this plan work . brook lynn : how ? how do you want me to do that ? carly : god , think ! you 're a beautiful woman . dante is a man . use your sexuality . it 's all about proximity , and you live right across the hall from the guy thanks to me . you plant yourself on his lap and we 'll see how faithful he is to lulu . brook lynn : dante is not a cheater . carly : hell . he 's his father 's son , and no one 's more devoted to the woman of the moment than sonny , until the next one comes along . dante will love being pursued . tell him he 's brilliant . tell him he 's sexy . tell him he 's an amazing cop . i do n't care how you do it . you get him into bed and do n't forget the pictures . olivia : what pictures ? johnny : jason back in pentonville ? dante : signed , sealed , and delivered . look , i came back because i have time to listen to you now . i do want to hear your side of the story , john . if you have proof that someone else , namely sonny , killed lopez , i want to hear it . johnny : i 'm not saying anything . you 're just gon na end up using it to strengthen sonny 's defense . and i called my lawyers . they 're gon na get me out of here . dante : man , you 're all wrong about me . johnny : i 'm not surprised to hear you say that . you 've been sucked so far up into the sonny vortex that you ca n't even see it . you 're so completely invested in believing that sonny is this good guy , as opposed to the amoral s.o.b . that he really is . [ foghorn sounds ] sonny : what are you doing , claire ? claire : what do you mean ? sonny : no , it 's just that you looked like somebody i used to know . i just did n't recognize you 'cause i -- you know , you dressing like you 're dressed right there ... claire : what ? what ? i ca n't , uh , dress casual on occasion ? sonny : it was n't a criticism . you 're a beautiful woman , and , you know ... you 've loosened up , relaxed a bit . it 's almost human . claire : oh . sonny : i mean compared to the -- like your business suit armor . claire : right , right , right . cleaning up . sonny : yeah . yeah . so what are you doing here ? you hoping to run into me ? running into you n claire : you know , i really hate to puncture that big fat ego of yours , but , um , the idea of running into you never crossed my mind . no , i really like coming to the docks . fresh air . after a long day at work , it really clears my head . but it seems the weather 's kind of turning , right , and it 's a little bit cold ? sonny : yeah , yeah , it looks like it 's gon na rain . claire : well , then , i think i 'm gon na head home . sonny : wait , wait , wait , wait . sonny : why do n't you come over to my place , have a glass of wine . it 'll warm you up . claire : i do n't think so . sonny : what are you afraid of ? to be alone with me without your armor ? claire : you know , you 're not nearly as irresistible as you think . sonny : then what 's the problem ? claire : ok . dante : i came to port charles with one goal -- to take down sonny corinthos . that did n't change when he turned out to be my father . if you have real proof to give me that sonny killed tomas lopez , i will run with it . johnny : i 'm sorry , i 'm just not buying it . look , dante , in all seriousness , when you came to port charles , you were still the intrepid detective , dedicated to your mission to infiltrate the corinthos organization and bring it down from the inside out . and , man , you played your cards right . you got jason 's attention and you got access . but that 's where it all went downhill . you got snowed by sonny . he started laying it on , that sonny charm , like sonny does . and you started thinking to yourself , hey , maybe he is n't such a bad guy . he 's good with his kids . he loves his kids . and when it turned out that you were one of his kids , hell , you have n't had any objectivity since . dante : well , i can see that this conversation is n't going to go anywhere . if you decide you want to talk , i 'm willing to listen . carly : what makes you think you have a right to join in on my personal conversations ? olivia : yeah , sorry , it 's a leftover reflex from when we used to be friends . carly : well , since it 's business related , i 'll let you know . i wanted to take pictures of brook lynn while she 's on stage singing so we can put it on the website . olivia : i do n't know . it looked like a pretty heated conversation . why would you be fighting about something so innocuous ? carly : because she 's shy and it bugs me . and sorry i was over the top with it , but i 'm a little freaked out about johnny being arrested here in my restaurant . olivia : johnny was arrested ? carly : oh , i would think you 'd be the first person he 'd call . olivia : what are the charges ? carly : dante said something about johnny killing another mobster . what ? brook lynn : i 'm just surprised about johnny . you think he 's doing ok ? carly : ok , johnny 's not for you to worry about . stop stalling and go have sex with dante . marny : you 're completely out of line . i want to speak to your superiors . elizabeth : well , i 'm sorry , but this is personal , between you and me , about a woman you should have a little more respect for . marny : that 's easy for you to say . shirley was n't your mother . she did n't abandon you and your family to run off with her first love and chase her dreams . what about us ? what about the kids that she brought into this world who did n't ask to be here , the husband that she swore to love forever ? elizabeth : she made the best choice she could at the time . marny : yeah , that 's what she said . it 's a copout , and not a very convincing one at that . elizabeth : would you rather she 'd stayed , resenting all of you and being miserable for the rest of her life ? you know , she felt a lot of guilt over leaving you . marny : she talked about us ? elizabeth : she had a lot of regrets . have n't you ever made a mistake and just did the best you could to pick up the pieces and try to get on with your life ? marny , do yourself a favor . put the bad part of the past behind you . take the jewelry . throw it in the back of the closet for now if you want , but i promise you , one day you 'll be glad you did . epiphany . this is shirley smith 's daughter marny . epiphany : oh . pleased to meet you . we thought very highly of mrs . smith around here . is there anything i can do to help ? marny : i 'd like my mother 's jewelry . epiphany : well , let 's see what we can do about that . follow me . marny : thank you . nikolas : hey . ready to face the boys about aiden ? elizabeth : yeah . nikolas : ok , let 's go . lucky : elizabeth and i fell in love when we were teenagers . and there was never anyone else for me . not really . not in a way that matters . it has n't been easy . there have been many ups and downs , splits and reconciliations . but over the years , elizabeth and i managed to create a family . yeah , that -- that pull was very strong for both of us . anyway , we were at the point where we were ready to give it another try . you know , remarry , the whole nine yards . but it did n't work . we did n't feel the same way about each other , and she , uh , she turned to my brother and had an affair . karen : oh , i 'm sorry . that must have been painful for you . lucky : it was . laid me flat . but then , we found out that she was pregnant , and it could have easily been my brother 's kid . but we got a miracle . aiden turned out to be mine . see , that 's his name . aiden . he was 7 pounds , 6 ounces , and 21 inches at birth . you know , i could see before ... how much he 's growing . you know , his parents missed all that . elizabeth and i will never get those moments back . i understand that . that 's just -- that 's just the way it is . but , see ... we just do n't want to lose any more . ok ? and , karen , listen to me . i understand none of this , none of this is your fault . but i 'm begging you , please , let me take my son home . aiden , then you 're pablo . lucky : these first days in the world must be confusing , huh ? no one can even settle on a name . your parents name you aiden , then you 're pablo . and i 'll be no other newborn 's logged in as many travel miles as you . that 's all gon na settle now . and you 're gon na find out how loved you are . and we 're a motley crew , but at our core , we 're not so bad . you could do a lot worse for family . which reminds me , i probably should warn you , there is a scary branch . it 's your dad 's side , called the cassadines . you got a grandmother that 's straight out of hell , kiddo . but the other side , the spencers , which also includes your dad , well , we try to balance things out a bit . it usually works out ok . flight attendant : you have a beautiful baby . lucky : oh . yeah . i think so , too . dante : you 're here . lulu : not for long . dante : well , then come here and give me a kiss . mmm . lulu : mmm . dante : where are you going ? going to see kate ? lulu : no . carly wants to have dinner with me and michael and she called family time , so i feel like i got ta go . dante : well , that 's good . i mean , she 's reaching out , right ? lulu : how was your day ? dante : uh , well , i arrested john zacchara today . lulu : for what ? dante : evidence suggests that he murdered a guy named tomas lopez . lulu : lopez like the brothers ? the ones that put the bomb in his car ? dante : yeah , those would be the ones . lulu : but ... i do n't know , johnny 's reckless , and if it were sonny , i could see that . but i do n't know , something about this just does n't seem right . dante : yeah . well , he says that sonny framed him . lulu : that i buy . dante : would you buy that i 've been on an integrity decline ever since i found out sonny was my father ? johnny : hey . any chance you 're here to post bail ? olivia : you need me to ? johnny : no . no , my lawyers are taking care of it . olivia : what are you doing here , john ? johnny : i am appearing by special request . i got an escort and everything . he actually looked a lot like your son . olivia : i 'm glad you 're so amused by all of this . you want to tell me what happened ? johnny : i was framed for tomas lopez 's murder . i got ta hand it to sonny . he did a pretty smart job . because if the cops do n't have a tight enough case , then , well , tomas ' brother santos will come after me for revenge . for sonny it 's no muss , no fuss . olivia : so killing tomas ' looks like retaliation for the car bomb . johnny : see what a good moll you 'd make ? olivia : do you think this is funny , john ? let me tell you what 's happening here . i believe that sonny framed you . but you know what ? his frame is working , 'cause you 've been running around like a freakin ' loaded weapon for months , and any person in this town would believe you 'd go off half - cocked and kill somebody . so , basically , you 're orchestrating your own downfall , and sonny walks off smelling like a rose . and that just does n't make a lot of sense to me . claire : i , uh , have to give you points for timing . sonny : it would have been a shame to get caught in the rain and ruin that pretty dress . especially since you wore it just for me . how about a toast ? claire : to ? sonny : taking off that armor . both of us . tonight i 'm going to be a perfect gentleman , and you do n't have to lecture me about alleged criminal activities . claire : well , i 'm not dressed for it , anyway . sonny : that 's what i 'm talking about . claire : you know , um , i 'm , uh , actually dying of curiosity . sonny : about what ? claire : well , you know , over at the , uh , the docks , when you thought i was a mysterious someone else , i thought i heard you call out a name . i could n't quite hear it . sonny : brenda . claire : right . who 's brenda ? o a lucky : it kind of surprised me how easily the lie came out . i mean , i did n't even stop to think . i just ... said i was your father . figured it was the best way to get through to karen . and i wanted something immediate in her face , something tangible that , you know , there were people that you belonged to . and it worked . it worked . oh , the flight attendant ? yeah , that 's , uh , that 's another story . i guess i could have explained that i 'm not really your dad , but what 's the point , right ? i mean , what does it matter if a stranger thinks that you 're mine ? you almost were . and i know i made a lot of noise about how it 's best that nikolas turned out to be your father . and in a lot of ways it is . your mother and i , we just needed to be done . but i spent a lot of years wanting to create a life with her . so just between you and me , deep down ... i think in some way , i 'll always wish that you 'd been mine . johnny : you 're getting yourself all worked up . olivia : well , does that bother you ? really , that i would be upset that now you 've been car - bombed and framed and arrested ? johnny , it does not have to be like this . johnny : i do n't want to have this fight with you right now , please . you should not be so worried about me , by the way . you should be more worried about dante . olivia : what does that mean ? johnny : do you remember before we knew he was in town , when he was just a picture in a frame and you would go on and on about him , you 'd talk about him , brag about him ? i mean , i thought he was just a fireman . i mean , you knew what he did , and he was a man of integrity , dedicated to the badge and the oath . olivia : and so what ? johnny : so he 's not that guy anymore . sonny has compromised dante six ways from sunday , and dante does n't even see it . and that is the only thing that is between dante and a really , really hard fall . guys like him , upholders of the law , they do n't land too well when they realize that they have been corrupted by the very thing that they 've been fighting against . and when dante realizes that , when he finally snaps out of this state of denial that he 's in , when he realizes that he 's so far gone , it will destroy him . judge carroll : so how you doing , officer ? desk sergeant : just fine , judge carroll . how can i help you today ? judge carroll : i was in the neighborhood , thought i 'd save the department some time , pick up the medical records in the mcmillan case . desk sergeant : right away . judge carroll : whoa , easy ! olivia : sorry . sorry . judge carroll : oh , for pity 's sake . what the hell are you doing in here ? sonny : i finally have you here . you 're not carrying your briefcase like a chastity belt . i do n't want to waste this rare opportunity talking about other women . claire : well , i told you , i 'm not offended . i 'm curious . i mean , there was something different in your voice . maybe something urgent . something hopeful ? sonny : no -- look , you 're reading way too much into a case of mistaken identity . claire : ok . well , you know me . i 'm a research demon , so , your life is pretty well documented . so if i were to do a search with your name and brenda 's name ... sonny : fine . fine , fine . her name 's brenda barrett . we were involved a long time ago . claire : serious ? sonny : we almost married . claire : what stopped you ? sonny : i , uh , left her ... at the altar . dante : you know , johnny 's convinced that because of my relation to sonny , i 'm too compromised to do my job . i thing he 's wrong . lulu : well , i do n't know . i mean , you are conflicted when it comes to sonny . dante : you really think so ? lulu : dante , i 've seen it all the time . i mean , on one hand you 're a cop who knows sonny for who and what he is , but on the other hand , you 're a guy who 's always wanted to know your father . dante : yeah , but i would never break the law -- again -- to protect sonny . lulu : i agree , and that 's , i think , where johnny and i differ . i think that you 'll always land on the right side of the line , no matter how hard it is to get there . dante : you know , it 's moments like this where i really wonder where i 'd be without you . lulu : well , you 'd be very lost and very confused . dante : absolutely . lulu : ohh ... i could call carly and cancel . dante : no , you should go . it 'll be good . lulu : will you wait for me ?

evangeline : thank you , your honor . mr. buchanan , we 've established that mrs. buchanan was unfaithful , but you have had at least one adulterous relationship yourself , have n't you ? kevin : yes . evangeline : you cheated on your wife with her cousin blair cramer , is n't that correct ? kevin : we were together one time . evangeline : once is all it takes . and it was only when you learned that your wife was pregnant that you went back with her , right ? kevin : no , that 's not true . i loved kelly . evangeline : is n't sleeping with your wife 's cousin an odd way of showing it ? mr. emerson : objection , your honor . evangeline : withdrawn . on the night of july 15 , you did n't spend the night at home . where were you , mr. buchanan ? kevin : in jail . evangeline : on what charge ? kevin : d.u.i . evangeline : let the record note that mr. buchanan 's blood alcohol level measured .14 on a breathalyzer test that night . judge : so noted . kevin : your honor , you should know that i was grateful that the police officer pulled me over before anyone was hurt , and it will never happen again . judge : your apology is noted . continue . evangeline : thank you , your honor . on the night of august 10 , you had dinner with a jillian masters , correct ? kevin : i do n't remember the date , but , yes , we had dinner . evangeline : well , on this particular evening , ms. masters was seen accompanying you back to your residence , but she did n't leave until the following morning . does that jog your memory at all ? kevin : ms. masters and i are friends . she had a little too much to drink . she decided to stay the night . evangeline : do you spend most of your evenings drinking to excess ? mr. emerson : objection , your honor . judge : overruled . answer the question . kevin : no , i do not . i said ms. masters drank too much . evangeline : so , earlier on that same date , before you spent the night with ms. masters -- who drank too much all by herself -- you showed up at your wife 's residence and announced that you had succeeded in getting the court date moved up . is that correct ? kevin : i thought she should know right away . evangeline : but as a c.e.o . of a major corporation , you knew that it was her attorney 's job to inform her that the court date had changed . am i right ? kevin : i suppose . evangeline : so , what was the real purpose of your visit , mr. buchanan ? was it to intimidate your wife or was it to gloat ? mr. emerson : objection . judge : overruled . i 'd like to hear the answer . kevin : i went there hoping for a chance to see my son . kelly : such a lie . evangeline : i see . so -- so is that why you showed up at mrs. buchanan 's residence this morning unannounced ? or were you going behind my back again , this time trying to pressure your wife into signing custody of her son over to you ? kevin : i just wanted to spare kelly this ordeal . i was worried about her . evangeline : i 'm sure you were , mr. buchanan . i 'm so sure . nothing further , your honor . kevin : she has n't been well , your honor . and with her family 's history of mental illness , i just -- dorian : excuse me ! and what about your family ? your mother has been certifiably insane for years ! judge : order in the court ! dorian : furthermore , she has so many multiple personalities -- mr. emerson : your honor -- kevin : are you really going to let this go on ? dorian : she murdered her own father ! judge : order ! john : correct me if i 'm wrong . this acting thing is kind of like just telling a big lie , do n't you think , r.j. ? r.j. : well , i suppose it is . but i 'll just stick to the business that i know . john : which one is that ? r.j. : see , this is what passes for humor with you boys down at the police station , right ? gary : you would make a really good bad guy . john : typecast already . well , good luck with your movie . gary : thank you . john : call me if you have any problems . lindsay : thank you again . john : hmm . lindsay : well -- john : yeah , it 's mcbain . i got something else i want you to do for me . lindsay : will you excuse us for just one second ? what was that all about ? r.j. : he 's having trouble with evangeline . i guess he blames me . lindsay : it sounded like he was accusing you or suspects you of something . r.j. : he 's a cop . he hates me as a matter of course . he ca n't pass up a chance to take a shot at me , ok ? let 's just get these things downstairs ? natalie : no , i am not backing out . paul : ok , good , because you are an important part of this plan . rex : yeah . listen , we should go over it once more before you have to be in court . i 'm going to leave here in a few , head over to the gallery , make sure everything 's on schedule . now , the trucks are supposed to leave there with the paintings in about 45 minutes . natalie : right . and then i wait on route 17 by the car . when the truck passes by , i wave them down , see if they 'll help me . paul : right . ok . then you and i jump out , grab the paintings . now , the guards are in on this , right ? so there 's no fights . rex : right . then i hand the art over to our boss , who sells the art to private collectors . the insurance company pays off the gallery , and we get 10,000 each . paul : which is pathetic compared to what the insurance is going to be . rex : take it or leave it . natalie : all right , paul , we better go . paul : all right . rex : listen , i 'll meet you out on route 17 in 45 , ok ? call me if you 're running late . natalie : hi . uh -- we 're heading out . paul : yeah . see you . john : oh , natalie , you got a minute ? david : now , i ca n't be certain , but i think three hours should be sufficient . woman : fine . that 'll be $ 1,500 . david : i have 12 . woman : 1,200 ?

paul : no . mr. emerson : is n't it true that your sister almost smothered you to death by burying you alive in a landfill , and that she did so while under the influence of a sedative ? paul : no . i think i would have remembered something like that . evangeline : your honor , i object to this line of questioning . mrs. buchanan was never charged with any such crime . judge : objection sustained . move on , mr. emerson . mr. emerson : no further questions , your honor . paul : look , i was there when kelly first found out she was pregnant . i was also there when she held ace for the very first time . kelly -- all she cares out is being a mom . evangeline : would you say that your sister is a good mother ?

you 're going to be fine . the judge is going to see how much you love ace , and that 'll be that . you 'll have him forever . kelly : you really think so ? paul : i would n't say it if i did n't mean it . listen , i know sometimes that you can get all twisted up and stuff , but you always seem to step up and do what you have to . good luck . kelly : thanks . rex : hey , you look good . natalie : thanks . what is that for ? paul : natalie , what do you think we 're going to do , use water pistols ? these guards are going to be using the real thing . natalie : i thought these guards were in on it . i thought all you had to do was unload the truck . what 's going on ?

you mean a handful of tranquilizers . kelly : no ! evangeline : objection . mr. emerson : i 'll rephrase . mrs. buchanan , how long have you been on this medication ? kelly : i do n't know , exactly . mr. emerson : oh , you said you take it `` every once in a while . `` could you be more specific ?

we got a tip about a van carrying millions of dollars worth of art that was going to get robbed right along this roadway . natalie : so what ? john : so i find you and the peanut gallery hiding here , paul with a concealed weapon . you want to tell me what 's really going on ? mr. emerson : answer the question , mrs. buchanan . why are you under the care of a psychiatrist ? kelly : is there something wrong with that ? mr. emerson : is it because you 're a drug addict ? evangeline : objection ! mr. emerson : is it because you 're overwhelmed by the guilt from your lies , from your adultery , from trying to murder your own brother and then cover it up ? evangeline : objection , your honor ! mr. emerson : is it because you were popping pills while your baby was being kidnapped out of his bed ? kelly : how dare you ! judge : mr. emerson ! mr. emerson : is it because you 're not fit to care for a houseplant , let alone a child ?

kevin : i do n't remember the date , but , yes , we had dinner . evangeline : well , on this particular evening , ms. masters was seen accompanying you back to your residence , but she did n't leave until the following morning . does that jog your memory at all ? kevin : ms. masters and i are friends . she had a little too much to drink . she decided to stay the night . evangeline : do you spend most of your evenings drinking to excess ? mr. emerson : objection , your honor . judge : overruled . answer the question . kevin : no , i do not . i said ms. masters drank too much . evangeline : so , earlier on that same date , before you spent the night with ms. masters -- who drank too much all by herself -- you showed up at your wife 's residence and announced that you had succeeded in getting the court date moved up . is that correct ? kevin : i thought she should know right away . evangeline : but as a c.e.o . of a major corporation , you knew that it was her attorney 's job to inform her that the court date had changed . am i right ? kevin : i suppose . evangeline : so , what was the real purpose of your visit , mr. buchanan ? was it to intimidate your wife or was it to gloat ? mr. emerson : objection . judge : overruled . i 'd like to hear the answer . kevin : i went there hoping for a chance to see my son . kelly : such a lie . evangeline : i see . so -- so is that why you showed up at mrs. buchanan 's residence this morning unannounced ? or were you going behind my back again , this time trying to pressure your wife into signing custody of her son over to you ? kevin : i just wanted to spare kelly this ordeal . i was worried about her . evangeline : i 'm sure you were , mr. buchanan . i 'm so sure . nothing further , your honor . kevin : she has n't been well , your honor . and with her family 's history of mental illness , i just -- dorian : excuse me ! and what about your family ? your mother has been certifiably insane for years ! judge : order in the court ! dorian : furthermore , she has so many multiple personalities -- mr. emerson : your honor -- kevin : are you really going to let this go on ? dorian : she murdered her own father ! judge : order ! john : correct me if i 'm wrong . this acting thing is kind of like just telling a big lie , do n't you think , r.j. ? r.j. : well , i suppose it is . but i 'll just stick to the business that i know . john : which one is that ? r.j. : see , this is what passes for humor with you boys down at the police station , right ? gary : you would make a really good bad guy . john : typecast already . well , good luck with your movie . gary : thank you . john : call me if you have any problems . lindsay : thank you again . john : hmm . lindsay : well -- john : yeah , it 's mcbain . i got something else i want you to do for me . lindsay : will you excuse us for just one second ? what was that all about ? r.j. : he 's having trouble with evangeline . i guess he blames me . lindsay : it sounded like he was accusing you or suspects you of something . r.j. : he 's a cop . he hates me as a matter of course . he ca n't pass up a chance to take a shot at me , ok ? let 's just get these things downstairs ? natalie : no , i am not backing out . paul : ok , good , because you are an important part of this plan . rex : yeah . listen , we should go over it once more before you have to be in court . i 'm going to leave here in a few , head over to the gallery , make sure everything 's on schedule . now , the trucks are supposed to leave there with the paintings in about 45 minutes . natalie : right . and then i wait on route 17 by the car . when the truck passes by , i wave them down , see if they 'll help me . paul : right . ok . then you and i jump out , grab the paintings . now , the guards are in on this , right ? so there 's no fights . rex : right . then i hand the art over to our boss , who sells the art to private collectors . the insurance company pays off the gallery , and we get 10,000 each . paul : which is pathetic compared to what the insurance is going to be . rex : take it or leave it . natalie : all right , paul , we better go . paul : all right . rex : listen , i 'll meet you out on route 17 in 45 , ok ? call me if you 're running late . natalie : hi . uh -- we 're heading out . paul : yeah . see you . john : oh , natalie , you got a minute ? david : now , i ca n't be certain , but i think three hours should be sufficient . woman : fine . that 'll be $ 1,500 . david : i have 12 . woman : 1,200 ?

paul : natalie , what do you think we 're going to do , use water pistols ? these guards are going to be using the real thing . natalie : i thought these guards were in on it . i thought all you had to do was unload the truck . what 's going on ?

we got a tip about a van carrying millions of dollars worth of art that was going to get robbed right along this roadway . natalie : so what ? john : so i find you and the peanut gallery hiding here , paul with a concealed weapon . you want to tell me what 's really going on ? mr. emerson : answer the question , mrs. buchanan . why are you under the care of a psychiatrist ? kelly : is there something wrong with that ? mr. emerson : is it because you 're a drug addict ? evangeline : objection ! mr. emerson : is it because you 're overwhelmed by the guilt from your lies , from your adultery , from trying to murder your own brother and then cover it up ? evangeline : objection , your honor ! mr. emerson : is it because you were popping pills while your baby was being kidnapped out of his bed ? kelly : how dare you ! judge : mr. emerson ! mr. emerson : is it because you 're not fit to care for a houseplant , let alone a child ?

[ groans ] jason : hey . hey . it 's okay . it 's okay . i 'm right here . there you go . i 'm right here . are you okay ? w - w - what happened ? sam : my baby . my baby . jason : i know you had the baby . how 'd you get here ? sam : i was trying to find help , but i was so afraid . i got dizzy . i could barely carry him . where 's my baby , jason ? jason : sam , it 's okay . sam : where 's my baby ? ! jason : just -- sam : please . please . jason : it 's okay . it 's okay . olivia : no need to get defensive , heather . all i 'm saying is you told me you went to kelly 's for a blt . i happen to know what time they close . heather : and if you 'd let me speak , i was going to say that i went to kelly 's and found it closed , so i decided to grab a drink at the floating rib . olivia : the floating rib ? heather : yeah , i looked up and saw the sign . it reminded me of the original floating rib , where my cousin susan used to work back in the day . susan moore ? jason morgan 's biological mother . and , of course , franco 's , too . olivia : i read the whole story -- the whole horrible thing in the press . heather : what 's so horrible about it ? olivia : that sam morgan had to find out that that sick freak franco is the father of her child instead -- heather : do n't you ever say that about franco ! kate : how does todd manning know about connie ? sonny : he overheard you and alexis at the pcpd . you were telling alexis that , you know , connie 's the one who caused the accident , so , of course , he 's gon na come to me , right ? and he 's gon na tell me what he heard , and he 's gon na say that , you know , how much damage he can do if he spreads the word . kate : todd manning ? the publisher todd manning ? sonny : yes . kate : sonny , he is very successful . he owns shares in many media outlets . he 's a very powerful man . sonny : todd manning is not gon na print a word about you . kate : did you threaten him ? sonny : we threatened each other . it went back and forth , and you know what ? then we made an agreement . kate : an agreement ? sonny , the girl in the car was his granddaughter , and i am the reason that she 's dead . why has n't he plastered my face on the cover of every paper he owns ? why is n't he screaming for justice ? sonny : can you take it easy , okay ? we made a trade . he keeps his mouth shut about you and i let his daughter off the hook for trying to kill me . todd : i know -- what i took from you when i killed victor . téa : do you really want to bring this up right now ? todd : and there is n't anything in this world that i would n't do to make things up to you . téa : sometimes i think there is n't anything you would n't do , period . liking the sound of -- why are you saying this ? todd : just give me a second , all right ? this is n't easy for me . téa : todd , listen . my baby could have died tonight , okay ? i would have had to go on without victor and without our son . so , no , you ca n't change the past , but you have changed the future . [ cell phone ringing ] téa : [ chuckles ] todd : there 's -- there 's more . there 's something i need -- téa : what is it ? go ahead . tell me . what is it that you need to tell me ? [ ringing continues ] todd : that 's probably starr . she does n't know what happened to you . and i - i should -- téa : yeah , you should probably take it . todd : right ? i should . hey , shorty . starr : dad ! finally ! did you find téa ? todd : i did . turns out she had a really good reason for missing your hearing . look , are you at the hotel ? starr : yes , i 'm here . todd : there 's something that i need to sort out with téa , but you stay put , okay ? i 'm gon na come meet you there as soon as i figure out how to get there from the hospital . starr : the hospital ? what happened ? todd : téa had her baby . jason : it 's okay . i just need to know how you got here . you were at the motel . how 'd you get here ? sam : the baby . john came to help me and he was gon na take us to the hospital and he went to get the car and he never came back . why did n't he come back for us ? jason , i needed to get help so i went out -- i went out to the road and i saw a light . i saw a light , jason , and i came here . jason : where 's the baby , sam ? sam : i do n't know . i was so dizzy . i was afraid i was gon na drop him . gosh , i got to get him . jason , i got to get him . jason : sam ! sam ! sam , where did you leave the baby ? sam : out there . out there . i left him out there . i do n't know . it looks like a cradle . jason : okay , okay , okay . you stay here . i 'll bring him to you , okay ? sam : okay . jason : please , god . i 'm sorry . jason : and they were right . as soon as i held you -- i know i could have loved you . sam : jason , is everything okay ? jason : h - how am i gon na tell your mother you 're gone ? starr : dad , you 're kidding me ! téa had her baby ? is it a boy or a girl ? no , no , no . you know what ? do n't -- do n't tell me . i want to see when i get there . dad , are téa and her baby okay ? todd : uh , yeah , starr , look , it 's been a really long night for everybody . why do n't you just stay put at the hotel ? you come see téa tomorrow . starr : okay . i 'm on my way . téa had her baby , that 's why she did n't make it to the hearing . michael : i know . i heard . congratulations . starr : i have a little cousin . a little boy or a girl -- i do n't even know what it is . it just does n't even matter . i 'm just -- i 'm so relieved and so happy . what ? michael : you said you 're happy . starr : i got to go . thank you . sonny : the reason i made this deal with manning was so that no one would ever have to know . kate : all right , well , now that his daughter 's free , why should he stop protecting his granddaughter 's killer ? sonny : he may be arrogant , but he 's not stupid . he knows i got more resources than he does . plus , he does n't want to punish you . kate : why ? sonny : i guess he has relatives that have the same illness that you have -- d.i.d . and he 's watched them suffer for years and the worst part was how they would blame themselves for things they ca n't control . kate : so , you -- you made this deal with todd manning . sonny : right . kate : right . you got michael to recant his testimony . sonny : mm - hmm . kate : and you made charges against starr go away . did you do all that -- did you do that for me ? elizabeth : promise me you 're gon na stay in bed , okay ? ewen : yeah . elizabeth : i already found you on the floor once before . i do n't need a repeat performance . ewen : you 're the one who found me ? elizabeth : yeah , and apparently just in time . you lost a lot of blood . in fact , we did n't know if you were gon na make it . ewen : guess that makes us even , right ? i saved you . now you saved me . elizabeth : but i had help . dr. wurth was there to get you to the e.r . ewen : i 'll have to thank her . elizabeth : actually , you ca n't . ewen : why not ? elizabeth : dr. wurth is dead . ewen : oh , my god . what happened to her ? olivia : heather , let go of me ! that hurts ! what the hell ? ! heather : do n't you dare insult franco . anybody who ca n't see the caliber of his genius is an idiot and a philistine . olivia : or a lot of them are also dead . heather : you know , i 've tried to be nice because , for some reason , steven lars finds you -- appealing . and what do i get in return ? interrogations , accusations . olivia : i asked you where you disappeared to in the middle of the night . that is a very reasonable question . heather : you call a man i admire crazy . that 's a very serious word to throw around . olivia : if the shoe fits . heather : dr. wurth called me crazy . look at her now . every day i try to be nice to you people . [ chuckles ] and look what it gets me . you doubt my integrity . you call me names . you meddle in my relationship with steven lars . of course , eventually , you learn , just like sam morgan did . olivia : what are you talking about ? heather : sam morgan tried to sour my relationship with my son . but she paid for it . olivia : what is that supposed to mean ? téa : all i know is that he is alive and he 's beautiful . [ laughs ] thanks to your father , believe it or not . after everything todd 's taken from us , now he 's given us this . maybe it 's a sign that we can all start to heal . yeah , i 'll tell him , honey . yo the quiero tambien . okay . good night , sweetheart . [ smooches ] [ receiver clicks ] téa : [ sighs ] todd : spreading the news already , huh ? téa : i had to tell dani that she has a new baby brother . she thanks you for saving his life , by the way . how 's starr ? todd : great . she 's happy . she 's really happy about the baby . téa : something 's still on your mind . what is it you wanted to tell me before she called ? jason : no , this ca n't happen to sam . not again . [ sniffles ] sam : jason ? what 's going on ? do you have the baby ? kate : ca n't believe you 're doing all this for me . after everything i did to you , everything that 's happened -- sonny : i 'm not without blame . when this went down , i called you every name in the book . kate : [ laughs ] sonny : i cut -- you know , i cut you out of my life . i ended it . kate : yeah , that was before you realized i was telling the truth about connie . sonny : but , you know , it probably would have been easy -- it was just easier for me to believe that you -- you know how i am . when you betray me -- [ clicks tongue ] done , you know ? kate : yeah . yeah , i 'm well aware of that . [ clicks tongue ] sonny : [ laughs ] it was n't you that betrayed me with johnny , though , 'cause that was your illness . it was connie . and now you 're sick , you know ? and you 're going through so much that i do n't think you need a murder charge on top of that . elizabeth : apparently dr. wurth left a note claiming she was responsible for the death of one of steven 's patients in memphis . that 's how he was cleared . ewen : so , because her actions led to your brother 's arrest , maggie felt so guilty she took her own life ? elizabeth : i guess . that does n't make a whole lot of sense to me . ewen : depends on what else was going on in her life . maybe there were things none of us knew about that were causing her pain or despair . she could have been struggling with depression and hiding it or had an undiagnosed mood disorder and this pushed her over the edge . elizabeth : i did n't know maggie well , but she did n't strike me as the type of person to take someone else 's life , let alone her own . heather : my , my , olivia . your suspicious nature is beginning to border on paranoia . olivia : no , no , no . you said -- you said that sam morgan pissed you off and then she paid for it . heather : does n't mean i made her pay for it . olivia : so who then ? heather : karma . i 'm sure you 've heard of it . sam walks around town like she 's better than everybody else . olivia : wait , wait . are we talking about the same sam morgan here ? heather : and then she conveniently forgets to bring a letter to steven lars from me that 's very , very important . so what happens to her ? scandal . front page news . now everybody knows why her husband left her -- because of a tropical tryst she had with franco . olivia : a tryst ? ! that sick bastard raped her ! heather : we 'll have to take the slut 's word for that . it is a convenient claim considering franco 's dead . olivia : where do you even get these ideas from ? heather : i have a very good sense of people . and beyond that , i let the powers that be deal with other people 's transgressions . i 'm just saying that those who mess with me get messed with in return . epiphany : here he is in one beautiful piece , as promised . steve : i 'm happy to report this guy nabbed an a - minus on his exam . he almost had a perfect score , but he was slightly underweight . téa : is that maybe he was born and not crying ? epiphany : well , you know , getting born is hard work , so sometimes babies take a little nap right afterwards . steve : pediatrics could n't find a reason for it , either . i mean , he 's strong , he 's perfectly healthy , but sometimes things like this happen when a baby 's early . téa : except my baby was right on time . todd : he 's good now , though , right ? that 's what 's matters . steve : that 's right . listen , enjoy your first night as mother and son , okay ? téa : thank you . epiphany : congratulations . téa : thank you . [ sighs ] okay . we 're alone again . tell me what it is you wanted to tell me . [ footsteps approaching ] starr : hi ! hi ! hi ! i came as soon as i could . téa : estrella ! [ smooches ] starr : [ gasps ] is this my little cousin ? téa : meet my stubborn , beautiful little boy . nothing would stop him from making his entrance . starr : he 's so sweet . téa : and lucky -- lucky your father found us . todd 's the one who delivered him . sam : jason , i want to hold my baby . no , no , no , no , no . do n't put him down . i want to hold my son ! i want to hold my son . jason : i just need to talk to you first . sam : talk about what , jason ? he 's a newborn . he 's cold . he 's got to be held . jason , please . jason : sam , i 'm sorry . sam : sorry about what ? no . no ! i want to see my baby ! let go of me ! jason : sam , he 's gone . sam : he 's not gone , jason ! stop it ! jason : sam ! sam ! sam ! sam : give me my baby ! jason : your baby died . sam : no ! no ! no ! stop ! no . ewen : oh . that was so good . elizabeth : you want me to turn around so you can lick the bowl ? ewen : tell me , how does a nice girl like you manage to score butter pecan in a hospital at this ungodly hour ? elizabeth : i have a little pull down in the cafeteria . ewen : [ chuckles ] elizabeth , as delicious as this was , and as much as i enjoy your company , i want you to know -- elizabeth : yes ? ewen : -- i still owe you that dessert . [ both laugh ] no , i mean it . i made a promise and this hardly lets me off the hook . [ chuckles ] as soon as i get out of here , i hope we can pick up where we left off . elizabeth : i 'd like that . ewen : [ chuckles ] olivia : heather , steven trusted me to keep an eye on you while he was at work , so when -- heather : you did n't go to steven lars about this . steve : olivia ? ! i got your m -- heather : about me ? apparently there 's been a terrible misunderstanding and olivia completely overreacted . you look exhausted , honey . how was work today ? steve : you know , the usual -- heather : let me help you with this . steve : -- e.r . drama -- broken bones , swallowed spoons . one lady came in with a baby she gave birth to on the side of the road at a bus stop . olivia : was the baby okay ? steve : he will be . the couple got help from some good samaritan who lived in the woods . heather : angels come in time of need , at least to good people . starr : and this woman just happened to be there in a shack in the middle of the woods ? téa : yep . i have no idea who she was . all that matters is that she and your father were able to save this little guy . starr : mm . well , that 's the thing about dad . he always comes through . [ chuckles ] téa : apparently todd has something he wants to tell me , but he ca n't seem to spit it out . todd : i 'm really happy for you . téa : you sure that 's all ? todd : is n't that enough ? come on , starr . let 's leave delgado to be happy . téa : buena noches , estrella . starr : good night , sweet little boy . téa : todd . i -- todd : do n't . just -- good night . you okay ? starr : yeah , no , i 'm -- i 'm so happy for téa . it 's just looking at that baby reminds me of -- reminds me of hope . todd : yeah . i know . i miss her , too . starr : so , tell me . todd : tell you what ? starr : tell me what you know about who really caused cole and hope 's death . sonny : you just , you know -- you got to focus on getting better so we can move forward and try to undo whatever damage that 's been done . kate : there 's no undoing the damage that i did to that poor girl . starr : michael says you know who really shot out anthony zacchara 's tires and that it was n't sonny , and that you used that as leverage to get sonny to drop the charges against me ? todd : i did . starr : all right , then . who was it ? sonny : what happened to starr manning 's family that night was an accident . kate : yes , it was an accident that she thinks you caused , sonny . what 's to stop her from coming after you again ? todd : telling you is n't gon na change anything . starr : well , if you do n't tell me , then i 'm gon na have to start asking around , starting with sonny . todd : no . no . i do n't want you anywhere near that gangster . starr : tell me . do n't you think our family has had enough secrets and lies ? todd : it was n't sonny who caused the accident . it was his girlfriend , kate howard . sonny : let me do the worrying for both of us . kate : no , you 've worried enough . you 've suffered enough for what i 've done . i 'm not gon na have you carrying her grief and her anger . sonny : starr manning can think whichever she wants . she can not touch us . mr. corinthos , you 'll have to leave now . sonny : you all right ? kate : i 'm really glad you came by . sonny : yeah . bye . kate : [ sighs ] connie : well , you did n't think you 're gon na get rid of me that easily , did you , kate ? starr : kate shot out anthony zacchara 's tires ? todd : shh . stop . it 's not even as simple as that . kate was not in her right mind when she did it . téa : oh , you are so handsome . but i still ca n't figure out who you look like . mm . [ baby coos ] téa : ohh . sam : no ! no , i do n't believe you . why would you say that ? why would you lie to me ? jason : i do n't know what happened . sam : what do you mean , `` what happened , `` jason ? nothing happened . i want to see him . i want to see him . i want to see my son right now . i want to see him . let me hold him . i 'll show you . i will show you . he 's fine . jason , please . jason : i 'm gon na bring him to you . sam : okay . i want to hold him . i want to hold him . give me my son . jason : no , just -- sam : what ? jason -- this is n't my baby . | elizabeth visits ewen in the hospital . he asks her what happened . she tells him he was hurt and needed surgery . he remembers that connie hit him and tells him that he has to warn everybody that connie is dangerous . elizabeth says the truth about kate and connie already came out and that kate was arrested for attacking him and then subsequently transferred to shadybrook . ewen says they have to understand that kate did n't attack him ; connie did , and that is n't the only thing she has done . elizabeth wonders what else kate has done . he tells her that it was n't kate , it was connie , and he ca n't discuss it with her . he says he needs to talk to kate . elizabeth says he is in no condition to leave . she tells him that she found him just in time and that he almost did n't make it . he says they are even now that they have each saved each other . she tells him that dr. wurth helped her to get him to the e.r . he says he will have to thank her . elizabeth tells him that dr. wurth is dead of an apparent suicide . he concludes that maggie must have had something going on in her life that no one knew about . he asks elizabeth if they can continue dating when he is released . she says she 'd like that . sonny visits kate at shadybrook . she tells him that she had a dream about shooting out anthony 's tires and that even though she has no memory of the event , the dream was so vivid that she woke up screaming . he tells her that she has to accept that she has an illness and that connie was responsible . she tells him that connie 's hands are her hands and that she is responsible for anything that connie did with them and will have to pay . sonny says she wo n't because only he and alexis heard connie 's confession and the police do n't know about it . she says she ca n't let todd and starr keep going after sonny for what she did . he tells her that todd knows it was connie and has chosen not to pursue the matter . kate wants to know how todd knew . sonny explains that todd heard kate and alexis talking and then came to him with the information . kate says todd is going to smear her in the media . sonny tells her that he and todd made a deal that todd will keep quiet in exchange for sonny letting his daughter off the hook for trying to kill him . kate says that since starr is free now , todd has no reason to keep his end of the deal . sonny tells him that todd does n't want to punish her because he has relatives that have d.i.d . starr runs into michael at the metro court . he asks her if she is going to ask her father who really killed cole and hope . she says her father has n't said anything about it and wonders why he would keep that from her . michael suggests that todd 's deal with sonny was todd 's silence in exchange for starr 's freedom . he tells her that he never wanted to see her go to prison ; he just did n't want her to try to kill his dad again . she tells him that she would n't have tried to kill him again even if he were guilty because she has been able to figure things out and has determined that she would n't have been honoring cole and hope if she threw her own life away on revenge . he tells her that if that is true , then he is glad he perjured himself . | <s>[INST] [ monitor beeping ] elizabeth : ewen ? ewen : huh ? elizabeth : hey . ewen : hey . elizabeth : do you know where you are ? ewen : wherever it is , i sure like the view . elizabeth : sounds like someone 's feeling better . ewen : what happened ? why am i -- elizabeth : you were hurt . you needed surgery . dr. drake performed the procedure , but he said you 're gon na be fine . ewen : my god . connie . kate . elizabeth : okay , you need to lay back down . everything 's gon na be okay . ewen : you do n't understand . i have to warn people , okay ? connie 's dangerous .

kate howard is suffering from d.i.d . she has an alternate personality -- connie . elizabeth : we know about connie , too . it all came out . kate is in shadybrook right now . ewen : she is ? elizabeth : the police arrested her when she attacked you . apparently she had a breakdown while she was in custody and they transferred her to shadybrook . ewen : well , they need to understand that kate did n't attack me . connie did . that 's not the only thing she 's done . sonny : what upset you so -- kate : it was nothing , sonny . it was just a bad dream . they should not have bothered you . sonny : okay , what was the dream about ? and do n't tell me that you do n't know 'cause i can see in your eyes that you do . kate : i dreamed that i was shooting anthony 's car . sonny : right . kate : and [ sighs ] i heard the sound of the tires blow and the screeching that they made as he skidded off the road . and i heard the crash . and i heard the screaming of -- [ crying ] of them . sonny : hey , hey . it was just a dream . kate : no , it 's not a dream , sonny . i have no memory of that night , but in my dream , it was so vivid , you know ? and i woke up and it was -- it was me . i was the one that was screaming . sonny : maybe it 's better that you do n't remember . kate : it does n't matter if i remember , sonny , because connie does , right ? she told you . she said that i killed that man and his -- his girl . sonny : that was not -- listen . that was n't you , okay ? you have an illness . you got to accept that connie 's a different person . she was the one who was driving the car . she 's the one who caused that accident . she 's the one who shot out anthony 's tires . kate : sonny , do you see this hand ? look at my hand . this is connie 's hand . these are connie 's fingers . they pulled the trigger . i pulled the trigger . i put so many horrible things into motion that night . and when i get out of here , i 'm gon na have to pay for them . sonny : no , you wo n't . michael : what did your dad say to you about the charges being dropped ? starr : i have n't found out anything more since this afternoon . all i know is that my dad leveraged yours into changing his story about me trying shoot him . have you heard any more from sonny ? michael : no . no . i just thought it was important that i go along with the deal , say i made a mistake when i gave my statement . starr : yeah , you mean perjured yourself . michael : only it turns , you know , it all worked out . at least now you know that my father did n't cause the accident . starr : but it does n't make sense . if my dad knows who killed cole and hope , why would n't he tell me ? what possible reason could he have not to ? michael : maybe it was part of the deal . you know , his silence for your freedom . steve : the paramedics were right . your baby is in excellent condition . could n't be healthier if he had been born here in the hospital . téa : could you take him to see a pediatrician ? i mean , i 'm sorry . it 's not that i do n't believe you . it 's just that when my baby was born , he did n't cry . he was barely breathing . steve : he was n't ? téa : no . steve : because his lungs are perfectly fine . téa : no , no , he was -- he was silent . he had to take him to get help . steve : and did you find any ? or did you pull this miracle off by yourself ? olivia : steve . hey . honey , it 's me . i am so sorry to be leaving this on your voicemail . it 's your mother . she 's missing . i - i do n't know where she is . i looked everywhere . god only knows where she went . heather : life is cruel and sometimes unfair . but god has checks and balances for that sort of thing . he puts the right person at the right time in the right place to even out the scales . todd : i thought i heard -- i had hoped that i had heard tea 's baby crying . heather : that really would be a miracle . todd : i went outside to check and i found her kid . she left her baby in a planters box . heather : i just have to worry that no one else muddies the water . todd : i - i 'm not solely responsible for everything that 's happened with this baby . i - i did have some help . téa : yeah , todd found this woman in the woods who helped revive the baby . i was so afraid -- that i was gon na lose him . i had this terrible feeling that he was gone . jason : sam ? sam , can you hear me ? heather : good . someone to bear witness . steve : epiphany , could you set up some tests in pediatrics ? epiphany : right away . steve : thanks . he 's one lucky guy . whew . whoever that woman was did some pretty quick thinking . téa : [ laughs ] yes , i 'm very grateful to her . but he 's the one who got him to her in time . he 's the reason i 'm holding my son in my arms right now . good morning ! wow . michael : look , my dad knows what you lost . so do i . we never wanted to make you suffer . we just did n't want you to try and kill him again . and now you have no reason to , so -- starr : michael -- would you believe me if i told you that i would n't try to kill your dad again ? even if he were guilty . michael : i 'm not too sure about that one . starr : no , i really figured it out . what you were trying to tell me on that road that night , what you 've been trying to tell me all along . i am alive . and i would n't be honoring cole and hope by trashing myself or by living on hatred . cole and hope would n't want that for me . michael : okay , well , if you mean that , i do n't mind perjuring myself . starr : not that my dad was going to bet my freedom on your compassion or whatever . he was going to blackmail your dad no matter what . michael : i 'm surprised that worked . usually when somebody pushes my dad , he just pushes back harder . starr : okay , so , why -- why not this time ? michael : i 'm not positive , but i think my dad is trying to protect whoever really did cause that accident . starr : okay , then . who does your dad care so much about that he would go so far to protect ? kate : i have to pay for what i 've done . sonny : the police do n't know that connie is the one who went after anthony . they did n't hear her confess . it was only alexis and i who heard it . after you came back from what you went through and connie went away , the cops brought you straight here . kate : what about starr , sonny ? she ca n't go around thinking that you killed her boyfriend and daughter . she needs to know the truth and you deserve to be exonerated . sonny : do n't worry about it . kate : do n't worry about it ? sonny , she almost killed you over it already . sonny : her grief pushed her over the edge . i know what that 's about because i 've been there , you know ? the pain is so bad that you ca n't think , you ca n't eat , you ca n't do anything , and you do something desperate and if you 're lucky , there 's no lasting damage . starr is lucky . as a matter of fact , i saw her today . i saw her in the -- in the courtroom , yeah . she 's fine . she 's not coming after me . kate : what about her father ? he tried to shoot you , and i understand he has no better nature at all . sonny : i do n't want you wasting time thinking about -- kate : i do n't want him targeting you , sonny , for what i did . do n't you see ? i do n't want him coming after you . sonny : todd manning knows that connie was responsible for what happened . that 's the end of it . elizabeth : what do you mean ? what else has kate done ? ewen : it 's not kate . elizabeth : connie . what has connie done ? ewen : i 'm not really at liberty to discuss it , okay ? i need to speak directly to kate . elizabeth : no , you 're not going anywhere . ewen : kate needs help , okay ? she 's in a fragile state . elizabeth : well , right now , she 's a lot better off than you are . i 'm sorry , but your patients are gon na have to deal without you for awhile . olivia : oh , god ! heather ! what the hell ? ! where have you been ? heather : i was craving a blt . i went to kelly 's . geez . hope you do n't mind i borrowed your car . olivia : i honestly -- i do n't know what bothers me more -- the fact that you just took off without telling me where you were going -- heather : did n't want to disturb you . olivia : -- that you took my car -- heather : i thought i 'd be right back . i was only going to kelly 's . olivia : -- or that kelly 's has been closed for hours . heather : are you calling me a liar ? téa : i know this sounds crazy , but i 'm afraid if i take my eyes off of him -- i 'm scared he 'll -- no . the worst is over . he survived . steve : a little separation anxiety is natural , especially under the circumstances of your son 's birth . epiphany : okay , we 're gon na take this little one and we 're gon na put him through his paces . téa : okay . please be careful . epiphany : it 's okay . i 've had plenty of practice with babies , huh ? yeah . steve : you 'll have him back real soon . téa : okay . steve : in the meantime , you need to get some rest , 'cause under the circumstances , it looks like you 're not gon na be getting any for the next 18 years . téa : thank you . you came through . [ laughs ] i still ca n't believe it . i ca n't believe my baby 's alive -- [ sighs ] -- thanks to you . [ laughs ] todd : téa thinks that the baby she 's holding is her own . heather : maybe it should be . todd : what does that mean ? heather : well , sam and her husband are n't together anymore . he did n't want to raise a child that was n't his . if i had to guess , i 'd say that sam was here to abandon her own child . todd : i know a little something about that . heather : and the woman out there , she already loves him . todd : but it 's not her kid . heather : do n't you see ? it really is a miracle . they 're both getting a second chance . todd : delgado -- there 's something i need to tell you . jason : sam ! sam ! sam : jason ! [ groans ] jason : hey . hey . it 's okay . it 's okay . i 'm right here . there you go . i 'm right here . are you okay ? w - w - what happened ? sam : my baby . my baby . jason : i know you had the baby . how 'd you get here ? sam : i was trying to find help , but i was so afraid . i got dizzy . i could barely carry him . where 's my baby , jason ? jason : sam , it 's okay . sam : where 's my baby ? ! jason : just -- sam : please . please . jason : it 's okay . it 's okay . olivia : no need to get defensive , heather . all i 'm saying is you told me you went to kelly 's for a blt . i happen to know what time they close . heather : and if you 'd let me speak , i was going to say that i went to kelly 's and found it closed , so i decided to grab a drink at the floating rib . olivia : the floating rib ? heather : yeah , i looked up and saw the sign . it reminded me of the original floating rib , where my cousin susan used to work back in the day . susan moore ? jason morgan 's biological mother . and , of course , franco 's , too . olivia : i read the whole story -- the whole horrible thing in the press . heather : what 's so horrible about it ? olivia : that sam morgan had to find out that that sick freak franco is the father of her child instead -- heather : do n't you ever say that about franco ! kate : how does todd manning know about connie ? sonny : he overheard you and alexis at the pcpd . you were telling alexis that , you know , connie 's the one who caused the accident , so , of course , he 's gon na come to me , right ? and he 's gon na tell me what he heard , and he 's gon na say that , you know , how much damage he can do if he spreads the word . kate : todd manning ? the publisher todd manning ? sonny : yes . kate : sonny , he is very successful . he owns shares in many media outlets . he 's a very powerful man . sonny : todd manning is not gon na print a word about you . kate : did you threaten him ? sonny : we threatened each other . it went back and forth , and you know what ? then we made an agreement . kate : an agreement ? sonny , the girl in the car was his granddaughter , and i am the reason that she 's dead . why has n't he plastered my face on the cover of every paper he owns ? why is n't he screaming for justice ? sonny : can you take it easy , okay ? we made a trade . he keeps his mouth shut about you and i let his daughter off the hook for trying to kill me . todd : i know -- what i took from you when i killed victor . téa : do you really want to bring this up right now ? todd : and there is n't anything in this world that i would n't do to make things up to you . téa : sometimes i think there is n't anything you would n't do , period . liking the sound of -- why are you saying this ? todd : just give me a second , all right ? this is n't easy for me . téa : todd , listen . my baby could have died tonight , okay ? i would have had to go on without victor and without our son . so , no , you ca n't change the past , but you have changed the future . [ cell phone ringing ] téa : [ chuckles ] todd : there 's -- there 's more . there 's something i need -- téa : what is it ? go ahead . tell me . what is it that you need to tell me ? [ ringing continues ] todd : that 's probably starr . she does n't know what happened to you . and i - i should -- téa : yeah , you should probably take it . todd : right ? i should . hey , shorty . starr : dad ! finally ! did you find téa ? todd : i did . turns out she had a really good reason for missing your hearing . look , are you at the hotel ? starr : yes , i 'm here . todd : there 's something that i need to sort out with téa , but you stay put , okay ? i 'm gon na come meet you there as soon as i figure out how to get there from the hospital . starr : the hospital ? what happened ? todd : téa had her baby . jason : it 's okay . i just need to know how you got here . you were at the motel . how 'd you get here ? sam : the baby . john came to help me and he was gon na take us to the hospital and he went to get the car and he never came back . why did n't he come back for us ? jason , i needed to get help so i went out -- i went out to the road and i saw a light . i saw a light , jason , and i came here . jason : where 's the baby , sam ? sam : i do n't know . i was so dizzy . i was afraid i was gon na drop him . gosh , i got to get him . jason , i got to get him . jason : sam ! sam ! sam , where did you leave the baby ? sam : out there . out there . i left him out there . i do n't know . it looks like a cradle . jason : okay , okay , okay . you stay here . i 'll bring him to you , okay ? sam : okay . jason : please , god . i 'm sorry . jason : and they were right . as soon as i held you -- i know i could have loved you . sam : jason , is everything okay ? jason : h - how am i gon na tell your mother you 're gone ? starr : dad , you 're kidding me ! téa had her baby ? is it a boy or a girl ? no , no , no . you know what ? do n't -- do n't tell me . i want to see when i get there . dad , are téa and her baby okay ? todd : uh , yeah , starr , look , it 's been a really long night for everybody . why do n't you just stay put at the hotel ? you come see téa tomorrow . starr : okay . i 'm on my way . téa had her baby , that 's why she did n't make it to the hearing . michael : i know . i heard . congratulations . starr : i have a little cousin . a little boy or a girl -- i do n't even know what it is . it just does n't even matter . i 'm just -- i 'm so relieved and so happy . what ? michael : you said you 're happy . starr : i got to go . thank you . sonny : the reason i made this deal with manning was so that no one would ever have to know . kate : all right , well , now that his daughter 's free , why should he stop protecting his granddaughter 's killer ? sonny : he may be arrogant , but he 's not stupid . he knows i got more resources than he does . plus , he does n't want to punish you . kate : why ? sonny : i guess he has relatives that have the same illness that you have -- d.i.d . and he 's watched them suffer for years and the worst part was how they would blame themselves for things they ca n't control . kate : so , you -- you made this deal with todd manning . sonny : right . kate : right . you got michael to recant his testimony . sonny : mm - hmm . kate : and you made charges against starr go away . did you do all that -- did you do that for me ? elizabeth : promise me you 're gon na stay in bed , okay ? ewen : yeah . elizabeth : i already found you on the floor once before . i do n't need a repeat performance . ewen : you 're the one who found me ? elizabeth : yeah , and apparently just in time . you lost a lot of blood . in fact , we did n't know if you were gon na make it . ewen : guess that makes us even , right ? i saved you . now you saved me . elizabeth : but i had help . dr. wurth was there to get you to the e.r . ewen : i 'll have to thank her . elizabeth : actually , you ca n't . ewen : why not ? elizabeth : dr. wurth is dead . ewen : oh , my god . what happened to her ? olivia : heather , let go of me ! that hurts ! what the hell ? ! heather : do n't you dare insult franco . anybody who ca n't see the caliber of his genius is an idiot and a philistine . olivia : or a lot of them are also dead . heather : you know , i 've tried to be nice because , for some reason , steven lars finds you -- appealing . and what do i get in return ? interrogations , accusations . olivia : i asked you where you disappeared to in the middle of the night . that is a very reasonable question . heather : you call a man i admire crazy . that 's a very serious word to throw around . olivia : if the shoe fits . heather : dr. wurth called me crazy . look at her now . every day i try to be nice to you people . [ chuckles ] and look what it gets me . you doubt my integrity . you call me names . you meddle in my relationship with steven lars . of course , eventually , you learn , just like sam morgan did . olivia : what are you talking about ? heather : sam morgan tried to sour my relationship with my son . but she paid for it . olivia : what is that supposed to mean ? téa : all i know is that he is alive and he 's beautiful . [ laughs ] thanks to your father , believe it or not . after everything todd 's taken from us , now he 's given us this . maybe it 's a sign that we can all start to heal . yeah , i 'll tell him , honey . yo the quiero tambien . okay . good night , sweetheart . [ smooches ] [ receiver clicks ] téa : [ sighs ] todd : spreading the news already , huh ? téa : i had to tell dani that she has a new baby brother . she thanks you for saving his life , by the way . how 's starr ? todd : great . she 's happy . she 's really happy about the baby . téa : something 's still on your mind . what is it you wanted to tell me before she called ? jason : no , this ca n't happen to sam . not again . [ sniffles ] sam : jason ? what 's going on ? do you have the baby ? kate : ca n't believe you 're doing all this for me . after everything i did to you , everything that 's happened -- sonny : i 'm not without blame . when this went down , i called you every name in the book . kate : [ laughs ] sonny : i cut -- you know , i cut you out of my life . i ended it . kate : yeah , that was before you realized i was telling the truth about connie . sonny : but , you know , it probably would have been easy -- it was just easier for me to believe that you -- you know how i am . when you betray me -- [ clicks tongue ] done , you know ? kate : yeah . yeah , i 'm well aware of that . [ clicks tongue ] sonny : [ laughs ] it was n't you that betrayed me with johnny , though , 'cause that was your illness . it was connie . and now you 're sick , you know ? and you 're going through so much that i do n't think you need a murder charge on top of that . elizabeth : apparently dr. wurth left a note claiming she was responsible for the death of one of steven 's patients in memphis . that 's how he was cleared . ewen : so , because her actions led to your brother 's arrest , maggie felt so guilty she took her own life ? elizabeth : i guess . that does n't make a whole lot of sense to me . ewen : depends on what else was going on in her life . maybe there were things none of us knew about that were causing her pain or despair . she could have been struggling with depression and hiding it or had an undiagnosed mood disorder and this pushed her over the edge . elizabeth : i did n't know maggie well , but she did n't strike me as the type of person to take someone else 's life , let alone her own . heather : my , my , olivia . your suspicious nature is beginning to border on paranoia . olivia : no , no , no . you said -- you said that sam morgan pissed you off and then she paid for it . heather : does n't mean i made her pay for it . olivia : so who then ? heather : karma . i 'm sure you 've heard of it . sam walks around town like she 's better than everybody else . olivia : wait , wait . are we talking about the same sam morgan here ? heather : and then she conveniently forgets to bring a letter to steven lars from me that 's very , very important . so what happens to her ? scandal . front page news . now everybody knows why her husband left her -- because of a tropical tryst she had with franco . olivia : a tryst ? ! that sick bastard raped her ! heather : we 'll have to take the slut 's word for that . it is a convenient claim considering franco 's dead . olivia : where do you even get these ideas from ? heather : i have a very good sense of people . and beyond that , i let the powers that be deal with other people 's transgressions . i 'm just saying that those who mess with me get messed with in return . epiphany : here he is in one beautiful piece , as promised . steve : i 'm happy to report this guy nabbed an a - minus on his exam . he almost had a perfect score , but he was slightly underweight . téa : is that maybe he was born and not crying ? epiphany : well , you know , getting born is hard work , so sometimes babies take a little nap right afterwards . steve : pediatrics could n't find a reason for it , either . i mean , he 's strong , he 's perfectly healthy , but sometimes things like this happen when a baby 's early . téa : except my baby was right on time . todd : he 's good now , though , right ? that 's what 's matters . steve : that 's right . listen , enjoy your first night as mother and son , okay ? téa : thank you . epiphany : congratulations . téa : thank you . [ sighs ] okay . we 're alone again . tell me what it is you wanted to tell me . [ footsteps approaching ] starr : hi ! hi ! hi ! i came as soon as i could . téa : estrella ! [ smooches ] starr : [ gasps ] is this my little cousin ? téa : meet my stubborn , beautiful little boy . nothing would stop him from making his entrance . starr : he 's so sweet . téa : and lucky -- lucky your father found us . todd 's the one who delivered him . sam : jason , i want to hold my baby . no , no , no , no , no . do n't put him down . i want to hold my son ! i want to hold my son . jason : i just need to talk to you first . sam : talk about what , jason ? he 's a newborn . he 's cold . he 's got to be held . jason , please . jason : sam , i 'm sorry . sam : sorry about what ? no . no ! i want to see my baby ! let go of me ! jason : sam , he 's gone . sam : he 's not gone , jason ! stop it ! jason : sam ! sam ! sam ! sam : give me my baby ! jason : your baby died . sam : no ! no ! no ! stop ! no . ewen : oh . that was so good . elizabeth : you want me to turn around so you can lick the bowl ? ewen : tell me , how does a nice girl like you manage to score butter pecan in a hospital at this ungodly hour ? elizabeth : i have a little pull down in the cafeteria . ewen : [ chuckles ] elizabeth , as delicious as this was , and as much as i enjoy your company , i want you to know -- elizabeth : yes ? ewen : -- i still owe you that dessert . [ both laugh ] no , i mean it . i made a promise and this hardly lets me off the hook . [ chuckles ] as soon as i get out of here , i hope we can pick up where we left off . elizabeth : i 'd like that . ewen : [ chuckles ] olivia : heather , steven trusted me to keep an eye on you while he was at work , so when -- heather : you did n't go to steven lars about this . steve : olivia ? ! i got your m -- heather : about me ? apparently there 's been a terrible misunderstanding and olivia completely overreacted . you look exhausted , honey . how was work today ? steve : you know , the usual -- heather : let me help you with this . steve : -- e.r . drama -- broken bones , swallowed spoons . one lady came in with a baby she gave birth to on the side of the road at a bus stop . olivia : was the baby okay ? steve : he will be . the couple got help from some good samaritan who lived in the woods . heather : angels come in time of need , at least to good people . starr : and this woman just happened to be there in a shack in the middle of the woods ? téa : yep . i have no idea who she was . all that matters is that she and your father were able to save this little guy . starr : mm . well , that 's the thing about dad . he always comes through . [ chuckles ] téa : apparently todd has something he wants to tell me , but he ca n't seem to spit it out . todd : i 'm really happy for you . téa : you sure that 's all ? todd : is n't that enough ? come on , starr . let 's leave delgado to be happy . téa : buena noches , estrella . starr : good night , sweet little boy . téa : todd . i -- todd : do n't . just -- good night . you okay ? starr : yeah , no , i 'm -- i 'm so happy for téa . it 's just looking at that baby reminds me of -- reminds me of hope . todd : yeah . i know . i miss her , too . starr : so , tell me . todd : tell you what ? starr : tell me what you know about who really caused cole and hope 's death . sonny : you just , you know -- you got to focus on getting better so we can move forward and try to undo whatever damage that 's been done . kate : there 's no undoing the damage that i did to that poor girl . starr : michael says you know who really shot out anthony zacchara 's tires and that it was n't sonny , and that you used that as leverage to get sonny to drop the charges against me ? todd : i did . starr : all right , then . who was it ? sonny : what happened to starr manning 's family that night was an accident . kate : yes , it was an accident that she thinks you caused , sonny . what 's to stop her from coming after you again ? todd : telling you is n't gon na change anything . starr : well , if you do n't tell me , then i 'm gon na have to start asking around , starting with sonny . todd : no . no . i do n't want you anywhere near that gangster . starr : tell me . do n't you think our family has had enough secrets and lies ? todd : it was n't sonny who caused the accident . it was his girlfriend , kate howard . sonny : let me do the worrying for both of us . kate : no , you 've worried enough . you 've suffered enough for what i 've done . i 'm not gon na have you carrying her grief and her anger . sonny : starr manning can think whichever she wants . she can not touch us . mr. corinthos , you 'll have to leave now . sonny : you all right ? kate : i 'm really glad you came by . sonny : yeah . bye . kate : [ sighs ] connie : well , you did n't think you 're gon na get rid of me that easily , did you , kate ? starr : kate shot out anthony zacchara 's tires ? todd : shh . stop . it 's not even as simple as that . kate was not in her right mind when she did it . téa : oh , you are so handsome . but i still ca n't figure out who you look like . mm . [ baby coos ] téa : ohh . sam : no ! no , i do n't believe you . why would you say that ? why would you lie to me ? jason : i do n't know what happened . sam : what do you mean , `` what happened , `` jason ? nothing happened . i want to see him . i want to see him . i want to see my son right now . i want to see him . let me hold him . i 'll show you . i will show you . he 's fine . jason , please . jason : i 'm gon na bring him to you . sam : okay . i want to hold him . i want to hold him . give me my son . jason : no , just -- sam : what ? jason -- this is n't my baby .Summarize.[/INST]elizabeth visits ewen in the hospital . he asks her what happened . she tells him he was hurt and needed surgery . he remembers that connie hit him and tells him that he has to warn everybody that connie is dangerous . elizabeth says the truth about kate and connie already came out and that kate was arrested for attacking him and then subsequently transferred to shadybrook . ewen says they have to understand that kate did n't attack him ; connie did , and that is n't the only thing she has done . elizabeth wonders what else kate has done . he tells her that it was n't kate , it was connie , and he ca n't discuss it with her . he says he needs to talk to kate . elizabeth says he is in no condition to leave . she tells him that she found him just in time and that he almost did n't make it . he says they are even now that they have each saved each other . she tells him that dr. wurth helped her to get him to the e.r . he says he will have to thank her . elizabeth tells him that dr. wurth is dead of an apparent suicide . he concludes that maggie must have had something going on in her life that no one knew about . he asks elizabeth if they can continue dating when he is released . she says she 'd like that . sonny visits kate at shadybrook . she tells him that she had a dream about shooting out anthony 's tires and that even though she has no memory of the event , the dream was so vivid that she woke up screaming . he tells her that she has to accept that she has an illness and that connie was responsible . she tells him that connie 's hands are her hands and that she is responsible for anything that connie did with them and will have to pay . sonny says she wo n't because only he and alexis heard connie 's confession and the police do n't know about it . she says she ca n't let todd and starr keep going after sonny for what she did . he tells her that todd knows it was connie and has chosen not to pursue the matter . kate wants to know how todd knew . sonny explains that todd heard kate and alexis talking and then came to him with the information . kate says todd is going to smear her in the media . sonny tells her that he and todd made a deal that todd will keep quiet in exchange for sonny letting his daughter off the hook for trying to kill him . kate says that since starr is free now , todd has no reason to keep his end of the deal . sonny tells him that todd does n't want to punish her because he has relatives that have d.i.d . starr runs into michael at the metro court . he asks her if she is going to ask her father who really killed cole and hope . she says her father has n't said anything about it and wonders why he would keep that from her . michael suggests that todd 's deal with sonny was todd 's silence in exchange for starr 's freedom . he tells her that he never wanted to see her go to prison ; he just did n't want her to try to kill his dad again . she tells him that she would n't have tried to kill him again even if he were guilty because she has been able to figure things out and has determined that she would n't have been honoring cole and hope if she threw her own life away on revenge . he tells her that if that is true , then he is glad he perjured himself .</s> | 10,662 |

[ dramatic music ] joey : i feel like such a loser ... being jealous of my own brother . being jealous of anyone . steve : come on , joe . you 're human , are n't you ? we all feel jealous at times . competitive ... want what the other guy has . believe me , i 've felt it plenty in my life . joey : still , it seems so petty . i mean , i 'm grateful to have an older brother . i really am . tripp and i have been ... getting along great . and ... he 's cool . he 's easy to talk to . steve : i 'm sure he feels the same way about you . joey : there 's only so close tripp and i can be . you know that . steve : [ sighs ] joe , i ... i do n't think that necessarily has to get in the way . joey : i killed his mom . of course that gets in the way ! even if he does n't know , hell , i know ! steve : of course you do . and you 're right -- how could it not get in the way ? it was a stupid thing to say . joey : even if tripp never knows the truth ... i have a feeling i 'm not done paying for killing ava . kayla : um ... i respect your decision . i understand . scott : i 'm so sorry that it had to come to this , kayla .

[ sighs ] i saw him too ... telling you to forgive yourself . telling me to forgive you . eric : and then we kissed . nicole : oh , my god . oh , my god , i thought -- i thought you ... were daniel . i thought ... i thought i was kissing daniel . eric : when i told you i had done something bad ... i do n't think i was talking about deimos . i was talking about ... kissing my brother 's girlfriend . so the question is ... do we tell brady ? [ somber music ] brady : i 'm actually glad that i went to a meeting today . jennifer : i know , me too . it always makes me feel calm , no matter how my day 's going . brady : exactly . and i 've been swamped at titan , and the fallout of sonny 's arrest . it 's been nuts . jennifer : and that 's the thing -- when everything gets crazy , you need to make sure you go to the meetings . brady : that 's right . and i know things have been ... crazy for you . i 'm aware of that and i know all about it . jennifer : you know all about what ? brady : ran into dario today . jennifer : oh . lucky you . brady : hmm . yeah , he had some interesting news to share about he and abigail being married . what -- what is that all about ? jennifer : i do n't wan na talk about it , please . brady : so you do n't approve , i assume ? jennifer : that is an understatement , but abigail 's a grown woman . she can make her own choices . brady : speaking of choices , it was interesting . you were in the meeting talking about ... a guy that you had recently been seeing , and , for whatever reason , you two had to break up because you had decided it was n't going to happen . you were talking about my brother eric , were n't you ? [ soft instrumentation ] nicole : i do n't wan na lie to brady . but if i do tell him , i know it 'll hurt him terribly . even if it meant nothing . eric : right . nicole : but not telling him -- i went through that with daniel ... never admitting that you and i ... held each other the way we did when ... when we were in danger , when we were ... trying to keep each other alive . and then ... i did n't tell daniel , and i regretted that deeply . eric : me too . and i do n't want him thinking that baby -- nicole : you know what , we do n't need to talk about that . the point is brady needs to know that we kissed that night , because i do not want history to repeat itself . dario : thank you for ... sticking up for me with your mom earlier . it means a lot to me that you believe in me .

[ suspenseful music ] tripp : what are you not telling me , jade ? | jade got upset with joey when she told him about her grandmother dying . he told her she should go see her mother . jade reminded him what she did for him and realized he was n't worth it . tripp talked to kayla about his career when scott ( a chairman at the hospital ) wanted to talk to her . nicole met with eric because she remembered something . she remembered that he said he did a bad thing . eric remembered that too . he wondered if he killed deimos . they went over what happened that night . brady found out that dario and abby were married . brady warned dario not to hurt abby . jennifer warned abby about getting out of the marriage . dario walked in and heard them talking . he assured jennifer that he would n't hurt abby . scott told kayla that another one of her patients died because of her negligence . he told her that she was on paid leave until further notice . | <s>[INST] dario : missed you this morning . abigail : oh . you were ... you were sleeping , and i did n't wan na wake you up . dario : right . well ... i was gon na go for a run , but i could always make time for a quick breakfast with my ... beautiful bride . abigail : ah ! what are you ... doing ? sorry . dario : i thought we agreed to keep up appearances . abigail : i know , but no one 's even looking . dario : okay . jennifer : [ indistinct ] dario : hey . good morning , jennifer . jennifer : dario . will you be joining us for breakfast ? dario : no . no , i 'm actually gon na go for a run . i 'll see you later .

[ soft music ] jade : thanks again for meeting me here . eric : it 's not a problem . jade : i just kinda felt self - conscious as the horton center . it 's kinda formal , you know ? eric : i understand . jade : it 's much better here . it 's more casual . eric : definitely . so ... what 's going on ? jade : i 've just been ... kinda stuck in my head since the last time we talked . eric : about joey . jade : yeah . and how i should n't make him or any other man the center of my universe . and ... i think you might be right about that . [ edgy music ] abigail : mom , we have been over this , okay ? i 'm helping out a friend . if i did n't marry dario , he 'd be on his way to mexico where he 's got a price on his head . i 'm not gon na do that . [ sighs ] what ? jennifer : i mean , jj just got out from under a charge of murdering deimos kiriakis , and now you are perpetuating a fraud on the u.s. government . [ scoffs ] abigail : i do n't really see the analogy between my situation -- jennifer : there 's -- there 's none , there 's no analogy . but do n't you think that you deserve some joy after everything that you have been through ? and you just keep putting yourself out there like this . abigail : mom , i 'm -- jennifer : no , i 'm not gon na stop . i can see it in your eyes . i can see the sadness , and that is what 's breaking my heart . can you please ... reconsider this arrangement with dario ? before it 's too late , before something goes horribly wrong . kayla : i do n't understand what you mean , after seeing what i do . tripp : i - i just , uh ... you 're so smart and so kind , and being a doctor takes a lot of study and dedication , and i 'm just not sure i could ever measure up , you know ? steve : tripp , listen . you know , it 's understandable that you 're feeling a little unsure of yourself , but i ca n't tell you how many times she 's told me that you really do have what it takes . tripp : she 's kind of prejudiced , though , right ? me being family and all . kayla : no . i am not being prejudiced , not in the least . i am being absolutely objective when i say that you are smart and you 're quick and you empathize with the patients . that is n't something that can be taught . it 's a gift . steve : listen ... you do n't have to make a decision right now , okay ? why do n't you just look over the study guides and think a little bit more about what you wan na do . kayla : you know what ? i 'm right here . so if you have any questions or you wan na talk about it ... okay ? steve : son ... you really should listen to kayla , okay ? 'cause if she says you 've got what it takes ... pretty damn sure you 've got what it takes . okay ? 'cause in my experience , she 's never wrong about anything . [ kayla giggles ] [ soft music ] jade : this thing is , i 'm still in love with joey , but we 've been broken up for months , and i just do n't see myself getting out of the friend zone with him . so ... i 've decided it 's time to move on . eric : i think that 's very wise . but just because you made up in your mind to let go , that does n't mean your heart is ready to let go yet . jade : right . ca n't just turn off your feelings , can you ? eric : no . not in my experience . jade : so what do i do ? eric : you find a way to put that energy into a new focus . jade : you know , i actually think i know what that focus might be . eric : yeah ? what 's that ? jade : my mom called last night and she told me that my grandmother passed away . eric : jade , i 'm so sorry . jade : thanks . she was really old and she had been sick for months , so ... it was n't really a surprise . but nana ... she was a force of nature . i really looked up to her . she never judged me . or anyone else , for that matter . kinda like you in that way . my mom is ... a whole other story . but she did call me and ask if i 'd spend the rest of the summer with her . help clean out nana 's cottage . eric : it sounds like she wants to spend some time with you . jade : yeah . i guess after everything that 's happened , she 's realizing how important family really is . eric : i think you should take a chance . you should go for it . jade : really ? eric : yeah , you know , just because people make it more challenging , that does n't mean we should stop trying to love them . nicole : the horton center is a strong supporter for those in need , and i am more than happy to fulfill my community service with such a wonderful organization . uh , yes ... eric brady is my supervisor . no , there 's no issues . why ? have you heard otherwise ? [ exhales ] well , we were engaged , but that was a long time ago . i assure you , mrs. simmons , that my past with mr. brady has no bearing on the work that i do at the center , which is very important to me because ... i want to prove to judge thorpe that i am responsible enough to raise my daughter . yes , yes , of course . you can stop by any time . thank you . [ soft music ] nicole : where did you go ? eric : i think i did something bad . [ phone rings ] eric : nicole . i did n't think i 'd hear from you . nicole : i need to see you right now . [ phone beeps ] joey : hey , i got your text . i 'm so sorry about your grandma . jade : thanks . that 's actually part of the reason i need to talk to you . my mother wants me to go spend the summer with her ... help get my grandmother 's stuff in order . joey : oh . right . jade : but joey ... truth is , i would much rather stay here with you . and i would ... if i thought that there was even a sliver ... of hope for us . joey : i 'll always care about you , jade . what we had before ... it 's over . [ somber music ] think you should go and be with your mom . jade : you know what , joey ? i have been loyal to you ... and i 've loved you since day one , and what do i get in return ? dumped on the side of the road like trash . i even overlooked the fact that you killed someone in cold blood . you murdered tripp 's mother , and i kept my mouth shut -- does n't that count for something ? your brother would have destroyed you by now if he knew the truth -- but i kept your dirty little secret . maybe i was wrong about you . maybe you 're the one who 's not worth it . [ somber music ] steve : so ... just think about what kayla said . because , like i said , she ... kayla : i am not always right . no one is . but i 'll tell you something . i am right about this : you are smart , and you 're good with people . okay ? but whatever you decide to do career - wise , your father and i are behind you a hundred percent . steve : that 's right . tripp : thank you , that -- that means a lot . steve : i got ta go help joe fix his icemaker at the loft , but i just wan na tell you ... makes me really happy that you two are getting closer . see you later . kayla : so , uh , you still gon na do rounds with me ? tripp : yeah , yeah , i am . i wan na see how mr. chancellor 's doing after his surgery . kayla : great ! well , i think that he 's first up , so shall we ? scott : dr. brady . kayla : oh , hi , scott . scott : i was looking for you . kayla : yeah . have you met my stepson tripp ? scott : no . kayla : this is scott mitchell -- he 's chairman of the hospital board . both : nice to meet you . kayla : what can i do for you ? scott : well , before you go see your patients today ... we need to talk . abigail : there 's nothing to reconsider , mom . it 's done . jennifer : not necessarily . i can help you , honey . abigail : you know what i need from you , mom ? i need your support . and you already promised that you would give it to me . jennifer : yes , i did . but i can not support you when i know that you 're hurting . abigail : i can take care of myself , mom . jennifer : yes , i know you can . but what concerns me is that you have not really thought about this . i mean , you married a man to help him out . is dario hernandez really worth the trouble ? [ soft music ] dario : yeah , no , i want the full honeymoon package . i 'll pay and do whatever it takes to give my bride the very best of everything . okay . yeah , make sure i get an updated itinerary in my email by the end of the day . great . [ phone beeps ] morning , brady . brady : how you doing ? dario : great . brady : i , uh ... sorry , i overheard -- i had n't realized you 'd gotten married . who 's the lucky girl ? dario : abigail deveraux . [ dramatic music ] nicole : eric . there you are . eric : hey , what 's going on ? are you okay ? nicole : yeah , um ... i remember something about that night . eric : what ? what is it ? nicole : i remember you saying you ... you did a bad thing . eric , did you hear me ? i said -- oh , my god , you remember , do n't you ? eric : of course i do . it haunts me ! what if the `` bad thing `` i did was sticking a knife into deimos ' heart ? [ dramatic musical buildup ] nicole : okay , we were under the influence of halo that night . eric : i had plenty of reasons to kill deimos . he was responsible for xander kidnapping you and me . he hurt people i loved . nicole : i know , but from what i remember , you did n't even know deimos was at the party . eric : maybe i learned he was there when you were in the bathroom . [ edgy music ] nicole : yeah . when i splashed water on my face ... but why ? eric : just talk this through . we had a toast ... and then we were in my room . [ edgy music ] nicole : then we imagined daniel ... talked about forgiveness , and then ... [ gasps ] then i , uh ... i gave daniel a kiss good - bye . [ breathing hard ] [ murmurs ] i , uh ... i need to go ... splash some water on my face . [ edgy music continues ] brady : hold on a second . you 're married to abigail ? as in chad 's wife ? dario : uh , chad 's ex . look , man , i do n't know what kinda game you 're playing , but if something happens to her -- dario : abigail and i are in love . brady : oh . dario : so you need to mind your own business . speaking of businesses , should n't you be bothering some other people since the ceo of titan just got arrested for murder ? brady : if anything happens to jennifer 's daughter ... you 're gon na answer to me . [ soft dramatic music ] abigail : i ca n't believe you 'd even ask me that . jennifer : is that an unfair question ? you know the gdr has been involved in illegal activity -- abigail : yeah , but mom , that 's eduardo . that was eduardo . he 's the one who broke the law . it was n't dario -- dario 's not his father , mom . jennifer : abigail -- abigail : he 's a very decent and kind man who 's always been there for me , and i know he would never do anything to hurt me . dario : abigail 's right . i 'll never do anything ... to hurt your daughter , jennifer . that -- that is a promise . jennifer : i really hope you mean that . dario : i do n't make promises lightly . jennifer : i need to go . i 'm late for a meeting . [ edgy music ] steve : there we go . just a little adjustment , she 's good as new . should have plenty of ice in no time . [ somber music ] you okay , son ? joey : oh , yeah . yeah . i was just , uh ... i was just going over my fall schedule before you got here and ... i have to admit , i 'm not feeling too inspired to ... finish school . steve : well , you feel like you 're not gon na do well or ... you 're worried you 'll flunk out ? what ? what 's goin ' on with you ? joey : just not feeling it , i guess . steve : okay . you got ta finish school whether you 're feeling it or not . education is important . it 's very important . you know that . it 's not something you can just walk away from because you 're not inspired or whatever . you got ta make it your business to get inspired . do you understand me ? joey : yeah , i do . and i 'm trying . but i have no idea what i wan na do with my life . steve : well , that 's okay . you 're still young . you got plenty of time to figure that out . joey : tons of people my age already know what they wan na do . like tripp . steve : hey ... no one is comparing you to tripp . or to anyone else . joey : i know , but obviously , tripp wants to be a doctor , you know ? he 's shadowing mom . she 's really invested in his future . and that 's fine . i 'm happy for him . but he has a goal . he has ... a direction . steve : are you feeling jealous ? that it ? joey : i guess maybe i am . i 'm not confident like tripp . sometimes i ... wish i were more like him . scott : kayla , we reviewed your cases of the past two months , and we 've found another error in your notations ... unfortunately . kayla : who was the patient ? scott : warren sherman . you were treating him for emphysema . kayla : that 's right . scott : you prescribed morphine . kayla : it 's part of the protocol . scott : well , your dosage was well over the standard and may have contributed ... to mr. sherman 's death . so the review board has launched a full investigation and , uh , until we have some answers ... seth burns and i have to suspend you . we have no choice . we 'll put you on paid leave . [ dramatic music ] joey : i feel like such a loser ... being jealous of my own brother . being jealous of anyone . steve : come on , joe . you 're human , are n't you ? we all feel jealous at times . competitive ... want what the other guy has . believe me , i 've felt it plenty in my life . joey : still , it seems so petty . i mean , i 'm grateful to have an older brother . i really am . tripp and i have been ... getting along great . and ... he 's cool . he 's easy to talk to . steve : i 'm sure he feels the same way about you . joey : there 's only so close tripp and i can be . you know that . steve : [ sighs ] joe , i ... i do n't think that necessarily has to get in the way . joey : i killed his mom . of course that gets in the way ! even if he does n't know , hell , i know ! steve : of course you do . and you 're right -- how could it not get in the way ? it was a stupid thing to say . joey : even if tripp never knows the truth ... i have a feeling i 'm not done paying for killing ava . kayla : um ... i respect your decision . i understand . scott : i 'm so sorry that it had to come to this , kayla . [ sighs ] i 'll be in touch regarding scheduling your formal interview with the review board . kayla : and i 'll arrange for someone to take over my duties as , uh , the chief of staff . scott : appreciate that . tripp . [ dark music ] tripp : kayla , i 'm -- i 'm so sorry . kayla : yeah . me , too . [ tense music ] nicole : [ whispering ] you know , um ... you said something ... about maybe ... having something to drink and that you did n't wan na go down that road again . eric : right . and then i started talking about daniel . i told you that i saw him , that i thought he was here , but obviously , i was hallucinating . nicole : i guess i was so high that just the suggestion of him being here ... [ sighs ] i saw him too ... telling you to forgive yourself . telling me to forgive you . eric : and then we kissed . nicole : oh , my god . oh , my god , i thought -- i thought you ... were daniel . i thought ... i thought i was kissing daniel . eric : when i told you i had done something bad ... i do n't think i was talking about deimos . i was talking about ... kissing my brother 's girlfriend . so the question is ... do we tell brady ? [ somber music ] brady : i 'm actually glad that i went to a meeting today . jennifer : i know , me too . it always makes me feel calm , no matter how my day 's going . brady : exactly . and i 've been swamped at titan , and the fallout of sonny 's arrest . it 's been nuts . jennifer : and that 's the thing -- when everything gets crazy , you need to make sure you go to the meetings . brady : that 's right . and i know things have been ... crazy for you . i 'm aware of that and i know all about it . jennifer : you know all about what ? brady : ran into dario today . jennifer : oh . lucky you . brady : hmm . yeah , he had some interesting news to share about he and abigail being married . what -- what is that all about ? jennifer : i do n't wan na talk about it , please . brady : so you do n't approve , i assume ? jennifer : that is an understatement , but abigail 's a grown woman . she can make her own choices . brady : speaking of choices , it was interesting . you were in the meeting talking about ... a guy that you had recently been seeing , and , for whatever reason , you two had to break up because you had decided it was n't going to happen . you were talking about my brother eric , were n't you ? [ soft instrumentation ] nicole : i do n't wan na lie to brady . but if i do tell him , i know it 'll hurt him terribly . even if it meant nothing . eric : right . nicole : but not telling him -- i went through that with daniel ... never admitting that you and i ... held each other the way we did when ... when we were in danger , when we were ... trying to keep each other alive . and then ... i did n't tell daniel , and i regretted that deeply . eric : me too . and i do n't want him thinking that baby -- nicole : you know what , we do n't need to talk about that . the point is brady needs to know that we kissed that night , because i do not want history to repeat itself . dario : thank you for ... sticking up for me with your mom earlier . it means a lot to me that you believe in me . [ soft piano ] abigail : yeah , actually , um ... i did n't wan na say anything to her earlier because i think she 's got a lot to deal with and i did n't want to worry her . but , um ... i got ta be honest , dario . [ sighs ] dario : okay . abigail : i 'm having some serious doubts about all of this . [ somber music ] steve : joe ... i know you 're still hurting over what happened with ava . and i know ... you 'll always carry the weight of that . but with time , it will get easier . i promise you that . and it 's good you 're still going to counseling . keep doing that . and you know you 've always got me and your mom to lean on . you know that , right ? joey : yeah , i know . i 'm grateful for that . steve : is there something else goin ' on ? joey : yeah . it 's jade . [ somber instrumentals ] she 's ... leaving . steve : she 's leaving town ? well ... that 's good . i mean , i think she could , uh , benefit from some distance . joey : yeah , yeah , i think she could too . but , uh ... i 'm gon na miss her . i 'm hungry . steve : well , go make yourself something to eat . joey : you want anything ? steve : no , no . no , thanks . [ phone rings ] [ ringing ] [ line ringing ] [ beep ] steve : hey , sweetness . how ya doing ? kayla : not good . steve : what 's going on ? kayla : i ... i 'm being , uh , suspended from the hospital , and , um , and they 're going to investigate me . steve : okay , you stay put . i 'll be right there . kayla : [ whispers ] okay . [ phone beeps ] [ heavy sigh ] [ emotional music ] brady : i talked to my brother recently about you , you know . he was ... pretty disappointed with the way in which things worked out . i think he was hoping that they would , i mean ... jennifer : yeah . i - i -- me too . i just ... i do n't think ... being in a relationship is in the cards for me anymore . brady : how can you even say something like that ? that 's crazy ! jennifer : brady , i have been so lucky . i had -- i had one ... great love in my life , and that was jack . and he gave me two beautiful , somewhat challenging , always amazing children , and i ... am so grateful . i 've had a full life . brady : your life 's not over yet , though . you 're young . there 's so much more to do . do n't ya think you might be able to give eric another chance ? eric : brady was upset just hearing that . nicole : that you and i woke up together -- i know . eric : and we assured him that nothing ... nothing happened . nicole : now we 're gon na tell him that something did ? even though it was just a kiss ? i mean , thank god we did n't -- it was -- it was just a kiss . eric : just a kiss . [ edgy music ] nicole : but still ... he 's ... very sensitive to even the thought of my betraying him . i have to tell him we kissed . [ soft music ] dario : what are you worried about , abigail ? abigail : look , i - i know what we are doing is not exactly on the up and up . committing fraud is a very serious offense . but i have made a choice to help you because you 've been a very good friend to me , very caring and very honest . you 've always been very upfront with me about your intentions and your actions . dario : and i ca n't tell you how grateful i am for your help . and i promise that your faith in me will be rewarded . i 'm not gon na ... betray your trust or make you regret all that you 've done for me . abigail : i hope not . [ soft music ] abigail : i 've got ta go run a few errands . dario : ' kay . i 'm gon na head to the shower . i 'll text you when i head over to the club . abigail : sounds good .

[ clink ] jake : that 'll work . sam : yes , at least the truth came out before nikolas could cause too much damage to michael . jake : ahh . well , uh , i do n't think nikolas is gon na be able to run from this . sam : what do you mean ? jake : he could be charged with corporate espionage . sam : based on the evidence we gathered ? jake : no . [ clears throat ] based on the fact that rosalie martinez is down at the pcpd , spilling her guts as we speak . [ scene_break ] dante : did you talk to lulu ? valerie : i did . there 's something i need to tell you . dante : okay . is everything all right ? lulu : we have to keep this secret from everyone , especially dante . dillon : it 's our secret . valerie : everything 's fine . dante : really ? [ chuckles ] 'cause you do n't -- you do n't seem all that fine to me . what is it ? tell me . [ scene_break ] lulu : another quartermaine disaster . well , this is why we always understood each other . the only family more dysfunctional and disaster - prone than yours is mine . dillon : i just hope we did n't blow anything for your parents . if valerie heard more than you think she did ... you said she 's close to dante . she might say something to him , which would be a whole new nightmare since the kidnappers said no cops . lulu : valerie did n't hear anything . [ sighs ] no one , my husband included , has any idea that our parents are n't really back together ... dillon : [ sighs ] lulu : ... that they 're just doing whatever it takes to save my brother 's life . [ scene_break ] jennifer : if you want your precious lucky back , you 're going to have to spend one night with me . luke : you ca n't be serious . jennifer : [ scoffs ] does it sound like i 'm joking ? making some good - natured dig based on our history together ? no , luke , i 'm tired of this decades - old song and dance between us . i 'm more than willing to return you your son . all i 'm asking is that the two of us finally consummate the marriage that fate so cruelly kept us from having . laura : you 're a vile woman , jennifer . you know that ? jennifer : you know , you have no negotiation power in this , honey . this has nothing to do with you . laura : [ scoffs ] excuse me ? you 've got my son . you used me to get luke here . you bet i have a seat at that negotiating table . luke : jennifer , you need help . you 've always been a tad ... shall we say unhinged ? but this is full - blown delusion . jennifer : i 'm not delusional . i 'm practical . i mean , you 're really making this sound as if this is some sort of unheard of transaction . i mean , really , have either one of you ever seen that movie `` indecent proposal `` ? with robert redford and that actress ... the one that ... she looks like jackie templeton . anyway , in that movie , mr. redford offers jackie a million dollars to sleep with her . now i , on the other hand , am offering you something invaluable . i 'm offering you your son ! you play ball with me , and we can both get lucky . [ scene_break ] dillon : hang in there , lulu . your parents are legendary for a reason . they can handle whatever comes up . lulu : i hope you 're right . dillon : lest you forget , i was your dad 's accomplice for a while . i do n't go around sidekicking for just anyone . before you know it , your brother will be back safe and sound . lulu : and then all the lies can stop . [ scene_break ] dante : did something happen with you and lulu when you went to talk to her ? valerie : we talked , and i told her maxie tried to warn me off you after seeing the photo of us in the news . dante : right , and she said she had no idea that she confronted you . valerie : you 're right . she had no idea . she apologized for maxie . dante : yeah , i kinda thought she would do that . [ sighs ] valerie : and just in case , i told her maxie had the wrong idea and there 's nothing to worry about . dante : good . so things are better between the two of you ? [ telephone ringing ] valerie : sure . dante : [ sighs ] all right , so what are n't you telling me ? [ scene_break ] michael : what are you doing here , nikolas ? unless you 're here to explain how this has all been a mistake ? that you have n't been taking advantage of your history with my family with emily to make a run at elq . nikolas : oh , i had n't planned on revealing my intentions until i secured a majority , but after sam confronted me at the metro court , i realized rosalie had been compromised . tracy : uh - huh , yes . even as we speak , she 's making a full disclosure to police . we agreed not to press charges if she told us everything she did on your behalf . michael : how long do you think this will last , nikolas ? your shares will be useless once you 're indicted for corporate espionage . and get your feet off my desk . nikolas : [ chuckles ] let the lawyers deal with the busywork , michael . we have more pressing matters to discuss . tracy : okay , how about you give us back the shares , and maybe the judge will go easy on you ? nikolas : [ sighs ] in addition to the shares originally controlled by tracy , alice , skye , her daughter , and ned ... i 've just secured brook lynn 's shares as well . tracy : `` secured `` ? you mean blackmailed and stole . i do n't know what you have over my granddaughter , but she was devastated when i spoke to her . nikolas : i regret hurting brook lynn . i do . tracy : [ laughs ] yeah . i can see the remorse rolling off you in waves . nikolas : oh , brook lynn and i were once very ... mmm . close . but the end game is , i control half of this company , so you 're going to have to deal with me whether you like it or not . [ scene_break ] sam : nikolas is family , so i ca n't be happy that he 's gon na lose , but he brought this on himself . i mean , the quartermaines were his in - laws , and they trusted him , and he completely violated that trust . not to mention that he broke the law . jake : well ... those laws do n't directly lead to a prosecution . it really depends on what rosalie is going to give up in her statement . sam : i 'm actually shocked that you actually got her to talk . [ chuckles ] i mean , she 's an experienced con . i 'm sure this is n't the first time things have gone wrong for her . jake : yeah , well ... [ clears throat ] i might 've had a little strategic maneuver of my own . sam : did you now ? jake : yes , i did . sam : [ laughs ] jake : see , i led her to believe that nina clay recorded the entire conversation when rosalie bought the shares . sam : really ? 'cause nina never mentioned anything about a recording to me . jake : that 's because she did n't record anything . this is really a taylor swift album . sam : um , i 'm sorry . that was n't a part of the plan . did you just say taylor swift ? jake : in my defense , cameron uploaded it to -- to the device . but it -- in -- it -- it 's a -- it 's a pretty -- pretty good album . do n't -- do n't hate on miss -- miss taylor swift . t - swizzle . sam : t - swizzle ? ! jake : [ laughs ] sam : who are you ? jake : um ... sam : [ laughs ] wait , wait , wait . what would you have done if rosalie actually pressed `` play `` on that thing ? jake : well , i might 've started with a two - step ... sam : [ laughs ] jake : gone into the cadillac , something like this ... sam : no . no . jake : and the right back into the shopping cart . sam : do n't go there . stop ! jake : just like this . sam : that 's too much . [ laughs ] jake : and that 's probably as far as i could 've gone . [ laughs ] patrick : this looks like fun . sam : hey ! patrick : hi . sam : [ laughs ] this is a nice surprise . patrick : yeah . sam : mmm . patrick : what 's so funny ? jake : uh ... well ... you kind of had to be there , i guess . elizabeth : and where is `` there , `` exactly ? 'cause last i knew , you guys were on -- oh , opposite sides . jake : uh , well , actually ... no . sam was spying on elq , but as it turns out , we were working towards the same goal the entire time . sam : wait a minute . how did you know i was investigating elq ? elizabeth : patrick mentioned something . patrick : yeah ... i did . sam : oh . patrick : it kinda just came up . sam : did he now ? really ? patrick : but no harm , no foul , right ? sam : mm - hmm . patrick : because it 's out in the open . jake just said that you guys are working towards the same goal , trying to find the same person at elq . sam : [ inhales deeply ] patrick : not just my fault . sam : hence the drinks . we actually were able to figure out who was trying to take over the company , and you will never guess who it was . [ scene_break ] tracy : how can you do this to a family you were once a member of ? nikolas : [ sighs deeply ] tracy : what would emily say ? nikolas : do n't throw her in my face . you hated emily . you treated her like crap . tracy : i was hard on emily . emily was hard on me . that 's the quartermaine way . nikolas : she was better than all of you . you refused to accept her into your family , when all she gave you was understanding and acceptance . tracy : and do you think she would understand you becoming a blackmailer and a thief ? so much for the soulful prince . just like i always thought -- you 're just an average cassadine . nikolas : you all brought this on yourselves . the childish squabbling between the quartermaines , the constant turnover in ceos . that 's exactly why this company is vulnerable . tracy : on the contrary . the company is doing better than ever , thanks to michael . he 's been doing a really good job . nikolas : [ laughs ] really ? then why am i standing here with 50 % of your company ? tracy : not through any canny business negotiation . let 's see , 15.5 % was ransom paid for luke . 16.5 % luke swindled out of skye . ned was blackmailed , and then you had rosalie buy those shares from a madwoman , . and you extorted brook lynn 's shares from her . so i 'd say that those are not really ... [ clicks tongue ] business transactions . they 're felonies . nikolas : none of that can be proved . the way i see it , elq needs me to bring it back up to the standards edward held it to . tracy : do n't you dare mention my father 's name . michael : if you think you 're gon na take my great - grandfather 's legacy , you are in for a rude awakening . [ scene_break ] lulu : i ca n't believe how much damage nikolas has done to your family 's company . dillon : i 'm glad i decided against handing over that half a percent of elq to him . that would 've been the nail in the coffin . lulu : i just ca n't believe that he stood here right in front of me and tried to trick you into giving him control of elq . all that talk about letting you be independent from the quartermaines was a bunch of bull . and i encouraged you to take the deal . i 'm so sorry . dillon : hey , you had no idea . lulu : well , at least he only has 50 % of the voting stock . at most , he can deadlock your family . dillon : yeah , unless it comes down to a tiebreaker . lucy : yoo - hoo ! oh ! yoo - hoo ! quartermaines ? quartermaines , where are you ? alice said i should show myself into the study , which is no problem because i used to live here , briefly , but i lived ... here . dillon : [ lowered voice ] lulu , i got ta call you back . lulu : is everything okay ? dillon : oh , yeah . bye . lulu : okay , bye . [ knock on door ] lulu : maxie , hi . maxie : hi . are you alone ? lulu : uh ... yeah . uh , rocco -- he 's asleep , and dante 's at work . maxie : oh , good , because i was in the city getting my hair cut , and i picked up a special batch of baked by clarissa 's . they even have our names on them . lulu : uh , what do you want ? maxie : excusez - moi ? lulu : cupcakes are to you what bridge closures are to mayor lomax . you definitely want something . maxie : okay , fine . uh , i - i maybe stuck my nose into your business and made matters worse . lulu : you mean when you tore valerie 's head off about that stupid headline in the press ? maxie : so you 've heard . [ chuckles ] let me guess . did dante go off about me ? lulu : uh , i actually have n't spoken to dante yet . but valerie -- she had a few things to say . maxie : ugh . [ scene_break ] valerie : dante , seriously , everything 's fine . consider the air cleared . dante : she did n't give you a hard time about that article , right ? valerie : no , nothing like that . she said she appreciated me coming to her and that she believed me . dante : right . that 's why i told you . we 're good . valerie : yep . [ telephone ringing ] dante : what 's bothering you ? valerie : [ sighs ] what makes you so sure something 's bothering me ? maybe i 'm just moody . dante : no , what you are is a terrible liar . what is going on ? what is it ? was there something about you and me ? what ? valerie : no , it has to do with lulu and dillon . [ scene_break ] lucy : it is so good to see you ! you look so good . you really -- dillon , you look great . dillon : it 's -- it 's good to see you , too . lucy : okay , i got your mother 's message . she called and said -- thank you -- that she needed my services right away . so of course , i marched over here pronto . but what i take this to mean is that luke has finally come to his senses and the engagement with tracy is back on , which , frankly , i find very surprising . why would she take that dumb - dumb back ? like , right ? so easily ? groveling . i bet it was groveling . and jewelry . you know , turquoise for me , right now , is very important . it 's kinda spiritual . and diamonds . if i could get diamonds and groveling , then i probably would do -- dillon : no . that 's actually not the case . lucy : it 's not ? dillon : no . my mother and luke are not engaged . in fact , luke and laura actually left town together . [ scene_break ] luke : jennifer , that sham engagement of ours was back in the carter administration . now i do n't know if anybody 's ever explained this to you before , but when you do n't see anyone or talk to them for decades , it indicates that the relationship is over . it 's over , jennifer ! move on ! jennifer : i have moved on , luke . give me more credit than that . but i will tell you , in the last 10 years or so , i started cataloguing my relationships . you know , my first marriage to bogs ended in disaster . then i was pen pals with this inmate named whitey parrish . that ... was weird . wait , was that his name ? whitey parrish ? who knows ? anyway , another dead . and i was even swindled by a guy in wales who claimed to be a lord . laura : you really know how to pick 'em , do n't you , jennifer ? jennifer : you know , despite your judgey tone , laura , i agree with you . the disaster that is my personal life is my own doing . i spent my first act letting daddy set up dates with me , and i spent the next act seeking out the unattainable . well , after years of therapy , i finally got to the root of why i ca n't let someone else into my heart . and that is because i never got closure with my first love . ahab never got to conquer his white whale . you 're my white whale , luke , and i can not move on with my life until i land you , even if it 's for just one night . [ scene_break ] patrick : why would -- why would nikolas be trying to take over elq ? i mean , that does n't make a lot of sense to me . he 's got a ton going on with the fire , spencer 's injury , not to mention his grandmother . sam : well , this is partly helena 's doing . apparently , she and victor had been siphoning funds from the cassadine fortune , and nikolas needs a new source of income to ensure the future of spencer . patrick : the guy 's got enough money , does n't he ? sam : [ sighs deeply ] jake : you do n't sound convinced . sam : well , i just -- i do n't think it 's just about the money . i mean , you should 've seen the look in his eye . it was like he wants to be in charge again . jake : okay , i 'm officially lost now . elizabeth : well , he had a very painful , very public breakup with dr. obrecht 's daughter , britt westbourne . sam : yeah . i mean , she basically lied to him the entire time they were in the relationship . jake : so , what , you lose your sense of right and wrong when you get screwed over ? patrick : i - i do n't know . i just do n't buy it . i spend a lot of time with him . he has n't -- he has n't shown anything to me about this . what about you ? does he ... any indication ? elizabeth : mm , mnh - mnh . no , nothing . sam : he kept everyone he was close to in the dark about this . i would say that it is the biggest guilty secret ever . i would be pissed right now if i was n't so upset . you think you know someone , and it turns out that they are keeping something so huge from you . [ scene_break ] nikolas : well , i can understand ... [ sighs ] how this all might be , uh , disappointing to you , michael . michael : no , disappointing is when you lose a game fair and square . but you , you -- you stacked the deck . you got those shares illegally . nikolas : business is business . i sincerely hope that we can learn to be allies . tracy : why would any of us align ourselves with you ? nikolas : because there 's nothing you can do to keep me from taking control of this company and making it mine . michael : the hell there is n't . we may be deadlocked , but the family does have a secret weapon -- lucy coe . [ scene_break ] lucy : i 'm sorry that , uh , things did n't work out for your mother . actually , i 'm gon na tell you something between us . do n't tell her , but i always , um , i - i think of tracy as being luke 's best relationship because she always somehow kept him in line without domesticating him , and she never really guilted him , and she was definitely his very best sparring partner . dillon : lucy , the reason i -- lucy : you know , but i still ca n't figure this out . it 's very surprising that he would still be dwelling on the grand affair with laura . i mean , i thought that was a long time ago in the past , but ... i guess it 's kinda like in the past -- me and scott . me and ... doc . me and duke . dillon : lucy , the reason my mother called you over here had nothing to do with her broken engagement to luke . lucy : oh ... okay . what does it have to do with ? dillon : the fate of elq rests in your hands . [ scene_break ] dante : dillon ? what has he got to do with anything ? valerie : forget i said anything . i should let you get back to work . dante : well , i - i ca n't . i ca n't . i ca n't . you ca n't say something like that and just leave me hanging . what is it ? valerie : it 's probably nothing , okay ? dante : what is nothing ? [ police radio chatter ] valerie : [ huffs ] when i got to your place , i saw lulu and dillon ... hugging . dante : well , uh ... they 're old friends . so what ? valerie : exactly . so what ? dante : okay . wait , val . please , valerie okay ? it ca n't just be that . [ puts file down ] otherwise you would n't have said anything . the more you dodge , the kind of weirder i 'm starting to feel about all this . so why do n't you just tell me what it is ? valerie : i heard them say something about keeping a big secret from everyone ... you in particular . [ scene_break ] lulu : valerie came over to clear the air . she said that she took the job at the pcpd , because the work interests her , that she and dante are just friends , and she totally respects our marriage . maxie : and you believe her ? lulu : she has n't given me a reason not to . she seemed really up - front about it . maxie : okay . all right , fine . she 's your family , so you kind of have to believe her . but i am more than willing to be the bad guy in this situation if you need me to be . lulu : i know . maxie : you know i always have your back no matter what . lulu : i do know that , and i appreciate it . maxie : see ? you are worried about this . lulu : no , i have something way more important to worry about than whether valerie is playing work wife with my husband or not . maxie : uh , hello ? what could be more important than the status of your marriage ? [ scene_break ] laura : this is so sick . luke : jennifer , look , i do n't care if i 'm your white whale , your winged platypus , or your grandma 's bloomers . jennifer : why are you making me sound like i 'm some sort of unstable person ? i may have made your life hell , but i was never a loon . i 'm being pragmatic . i know what my heart needs to lead a healthy life . i have what you need . it 's a win - win situation . laura : except for luke 's bride - to - be . jennifer : oh , god ! all of a sudden , you care about tracy 's feelings ! oh ! you ca n't stand the woman . what is this to you ? laura : uh , well , let 's see . how about the fact that what you 're proposing here is no `` indecent proposal . `` this is rape . jennifer : excuse you ? did you just call me a rapist ? laura : i am calling out the situation for what it is . you know , this movie that you like , `` indecent proposal `` ? that was a little bit more of a business transaction , sort of , uh , along the same lines of prostitution . jennifer : ohh . you mean like dear old barbara jean . laura : this is not a financial deal . you are using our son and threatening his life to ... force luke to sleep with you , and that is coercion . and in some states , jennifer , that 's considered rape . jennifer : you know , laura ? i guess you and i are just never really going to agree on how to label this . but even if we did , quite frankly , i 'm really ... [ chuckles ] i 'm surprised by your attitude . i am . because after all , would n't it kind of be poetic justice for luke to experience the hell he put you through ? [ scene_break ] dante : i do n't get it . what kind of secret could lulu and dillon be keeping from me ? [ telephone ringing ] valerie : i do n't know . that 's all i heard . i was n't trying to eavesdrop . i just wanted to get out of there , but before i could leave , lulu saw me . dante : how did she react ? valerie : she seemed a little freaked out . but she was probably just surprised that she and dillon were n't alone . dante : well , that does n't really sound like her . valerie : like i said before , it was probably nothing . i just ... misheard or whatever . i doubt there 's anything that you need to worry about . dante : yeah . you 're probably right . [ scene_break ] maxie : what is up ? besides the possibility that valerie is getting too friendly with dante . lulu : you know , i was talking about the haunted star . i just have to make sure that we stay in the black . maxie : business is booming . that place practically runs itself . what 's really going on ? lulu : just leave it alone , please ? maxie : nobody on the planet would buy that lame evasion , especially not me , your best friend . something is upsetting you . rocco is asleep , and we have cupcakes . lay it on me . lulu : are you sure that you 're not just bored , now that everything is good with you and nathan ? i think maybe you 're looking for some excitement . maxie : my life is plenty exciting , thank you very much . and i do n't know why you 're dragging this out when we both know you 're gon na tell me what 's going on . lulu : i am trying to tell you , but you 're not listening . there 's no big secret . maxie : is it because you think i wo n't understand ? you know you can tell me anything , lulu . i have your back . lulu : dillon and i ca n't tell anyone , okay ? not even dante . maxie : dillon ? hold up . is something going on between you and dillon ? lulu : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] dillon : nikolas has commandeered a large amount of elq 's voting stock . he 's going to be making some big moves soon . lucy : hmm . that 's interesting . very surprising . what does this have to do with me ? dillon : at the moment , he 's only been able to amass 50 % . the rest is firmly secured within the family . so whatever play nikolas makes , it will come down to a tie . [ scene_break ] tracy : did n't you know that my late brother gave lucy coe a small stake in the company in their divorce ? michael : but it only comes into play when it 's deadlocked , and since lucy 's a friend of the family ... sorry , but you are nothing but a lame duck to this board . nikolas : [ chuckles ] even a lame duck can cause a hell of a lot of annoyance . all i have to do is wear down just one of your family members . and eventually , they will break rank and realize the incredible financial opportunity i 'm offering them . [ drawer opens ] michael : well ... [ sighs ] i am not gon na let that happen . nikolas : edward 's will . michael : part of it . check out section `` t , `` clause 7 . to prevent any quartermaine from taking sole control , my great - grandfather created a loophole . if any individual or tlc obtains more than one - third of the company , a majority of the board have the option of stripping that person of their voting rights . so you , yes , would own part of this company , but in name only . all the financial drain but none of the influence . actually , you know , right now , i 'm gon na call an emergency shareholders meeting and for the sole purpose of voting you out . tracy : michael , how quartermaine of you . michael : just admit it , nikolas . you lost . [ scene_break ] jake : thank you , sir . sam : thank you . jake : so sam and i were just toasting to a job well done . well done . [ clink ] sam : thank you . kind of eases the pain of figuring out that nikolas is a true cassadine after all . patrick : yeah , i 'm sorry . that 's got ta be tough to hear that your cousin 's that underhanded . sam : i guess you never know what someone 's capable of , or what will push them to abandon their moral compass . jake : wow . [ clears throat ] light conversations . so , uh , what brings you guys here , huh ? sam : [ sighs ] oh . patrick : uh , we had just finished up a tough surgery that was touch and go for a little while there , so , uh , decided to come down and celebrate . the patient made it through . we pulled together as a team . sam : well , i like the sound of that . i think it 's a great reason to celebrate , and ... you should take me up on that dinner offer . we 're all here . we should probably take advantage of it . jake : yeah . yeah . dinner 's on me . elizabeth : no . uh , you do n't have to do that . [ chuckles ] jake : oh , absolutely . i just got my big bonus check . i should spend it on something worthwhile . i mean , uh , what 's life -- is it worth living if you do n't celebrate , huh ? sam : that is so true . i agree . [ chuckles ] jake : so dinner ? tonight ? the four of us ? on me ? yeah ? sam : sounds good , yeah . [ scene_break ] michael : yeah , we 're voting now . uh , thank you again . tracy : okay . dillon and lucy are on their way . nikolas : excuse me , but should you even be here ? you 're no longer a member of the board . tracy : monica is on vacation with her boyfriend the judge . i did reach her by phone , and she granted me her proxy for this vote . she also said that emily would be ashamed of you , and i should kick your ass out of the boardroom . michael : and maya just faxed me over her proxy . nikolas : is any of this really necessary ? i mean , i 'm willing to play nice ... for now . tracy : no , actually , you 're hoping to use our differences to scoop up all the voting pie . not gon na happen . dillon : i guess you were n't all that interested in my film career . nikolas : on the contrary . our deal would 've benefited us both . and since when are you interested in the day - to - day workings of elq ? dillon : since i 'm a quartermaine , and it pisses me off to see someone who was married to my cousin emily trying to raid the family company . could you do this if my grandfather was still alive , nikolas ? could you look him in the face and betray him like this ? michael : yeah , how about we , uh , we get started , huh ? sooner we get this settled , the better . i hereby call this meeting of the board to order . we are here to vote on whether nikolas cassadine , who obtained his voting stock through duplicity and arguably illegal methods , should be stripped of his voting power on this board . tracy : i take it we know how you are going to vote . nikolas : what the hell ? nay . tracy : on monica 's behalf , aye . dillon : aye . michael : aye . and along with maya 's vote of aye , that brings us to 50 % . a deadlock . well , lucy , if you 'll do the honors in settling this issue ... how do you vote ? lucy : nay . [ scene_break ] dante : hey . rosalie finished writing up her statement . valerie : bad ? dante : yeah . i mean , i 'd say you should start looking for a new place to live . nikolas is pretty heavily involved in this stuff . i better go tell lulu that her brother could be looking at a bit of trouble . valerie : are you gon na talk to lulu about dillon ? dante : yeah , i think i have to . [ huffs ] valerie : is there anything i can do ? dante : yeah , you can , uh , type up this chicken scratch , if you want to , make it a little more legible . guess rosalie really was in the medical field after all . valerie : i 'm on it . dante : thanks . valerie : dante . i really ca n't say for sure what i saw when i walked in on lulu and dillon . and the last thing i wan na do is cause a problem for you two . dante : i know that . appreciate you telling me . [ scene_break ] lulu : me and dillon ? that 's crazy . maxie : well , i would 've thought so , but with the way you 're acting , i 'm on to something . lulu : see , maxie , part of being a best friend is knowing when to back off . and trust me , this is one of those times . i need you to accept that i have to keep this to myself . maxie : keep what ? lulu : this is how you can have my back . [ plate clinks ] maxie : okay . fine . but if you change your mind , i am here for you . just say the word . lulu : [ whispers ] thank you . [ scene_break ] luke : hey , watch it , miss smith . jennifer : oh , come on ! it 's not like what i 'm saying is n't already a matter of public record . you , luke spencer , forced yourself on laura at the campus disco during the carter administration days , as you 're so fond of saying . come on , laura . is n't there just a little , teeny , tiny part of you that really wishes luke knew what that felt like ? laura : no . jennifer : no ? laura : no . i do n't believe in bloodlust or vengeance . you know , jennifer , i - i know that this is probably gon na sound a little bit strange to you , but i do n't derive pleasure from someone else 's pain . yeah , i know . it might be a little bit hard to grasp . but that is how we are different . so , please , i do n't want you to go vigilante on luke in my name . jennifer : okay . [ laughs ] that was just a fringe benefit . if you do n't see the poetic justice of it , that 's on you . but you are awfully quiet over here , mister . what 's the matter ? digging this up just ... [ whispers ] a little too much for you ?

[ scene_break ] tracy : nikolas does not have a majority . michael : yeah , maybe not , but he does control half of elq , which means we 're gon na have to deal with him sooner or later . nikolas : looks like sooner . it appears we all have some business to discuss .

[ scene_break ] dante : did something happen with you and lulu when you went to talk to her ? valerie : we talked , and i told her maxie tried to warn me off you after seeing the photo of us in the news . dante : right , and she said she had no idea that she confronted you . valerie : you 're right . she had no idea . she apologized for maxie . dante : yeah , i kinda thought she would do that .

[ scene_break ] sam : nikolas is family , so i ca n't be happy that he 's gon na lose , but he brought this on himself . i mean , the quartermaines were his in - laws , and they trusted him , and he completely violated that trust . not to mention that he broke the law . jake : well ... those laws do n't directly lead to a prosecution . it really depends on what rosalie is going to give up in her statement . sam : i 'm actually shocked that you actually got her to talk . [ chuckles ] i mean , she 's an experienced con . i 'm sure this is n't the first time things have gone wrong for her . jake : yeah , well ... [ clears throat ] i might 've had a little strategic maneuver of my own . sam : did you now ? jake : yes , i did . sam : [ laughs ] jake : see , i led her to believe that nina clay recorded the entire conversation when rosalie bought the shares . sam : really ? 'cause nina never mentioned anything about a recording to me . jake : that 's because she did n't record anything . this is really a taylor swift album . sam : um , i 'm sorry . that was n't a part of the plan . did you just say taylor swift ? jake : in my defense , cameron uploaded it to -- to the device . but it -- in -- it -- it 's a -- it 's a pretty -- pretty good album . do n't -- do n't hate on miss -- miss taylor swift . t - swizzle . sam : t - swizzle ? ! jake : [ laughs ] sam : who are you ? jake : um ... sam : [ laughs ] wait , wait , wait . what would you have done if rosalie actually pressed `` play `` on that thing ? jake : well , i might 've started with a two - step ... sam : [ laughs ] jake : gone into the cadillac , something like this ... sam : no . no . jake : and the right back into the shopping cart . sam : do n't go there . stop ! jake : just like this . sam : that 's too much .

'cause last i knew , you guys were on -- oh , opposite sides . jake : uh , well , actually ... no . sam was spying on elq , but as it turns out , we were working towards the same goal the entire time . sam : wait a minute . how did you know i was investigating elq ? elizabeth : patrick mentioned something . patrick : yeah ... i did . sam : oh . patrick : it kinda just came up . sam : did he now ? really ? patrick : but no harm , no foul , right ? sam : mm - hmm . patrick : because it 's out in the open . jake just said that you guys are working towards the same goal , trying to find the same person at elq . sam : [ inhales deeply ] patrick : not just my fault . sam : hence the drinks . we actually were able to figure out who was trying to take over the company , and you will never guess who it was . [ scene_break ] tracy : how can you do this to a family you were once a member of ? nikolas : [ sighs deeply ] tracy : what would emily say ? nikolas : do n't throw her in my face . you hated emily . you treated her like crap . tracy : i was hard on emily . emily was hard on me . that 's the quartermaine way . nikolas : she was better than all of you . you refused to accept her into your family , when all she gave you was understanding and acceptance . tracy : and do you think she would understand you becoming a blackmailer and a thief ? so much for the soulful prince . just like i always thought -- you 're just an average cassadine . nikolas : you all brought this on yourselves . the childish squabbling between the quartermaines , the constant turnover in ceos . that 's exactly why this company is vulnerable . tracy : on the contrary . the company is doing better than ever , thanks to michael . he 's been doing a really good job . nikolas : [ laughs ] really ? then why am i standing here with 50 % of your company ? tracy : not through any canny business negotiation . let 's see , 15.5 % was ransom paid for luke . 16.5 % luke swindled out of skye . ned was blackmailed , and then you had rosalie buy those shares from a madwoman , . and you extorted brook lynn 's shares from her . so i 'd say that those are not really ... [ clicks tongue ] business transactions . they 're felonies . nikolas : none of that can be proved . the way i see it , elq needs me to bring it back up to the standards edward held it to . tracy : do n't you dare mention my father 's name . michael : if you think you 're gon na take my great - grandfather 's legacy , you are in for a rude awakening . [ scene_break ] lulu : i ca n't believe how much damage nikolas has done to your family 's company . dillon : i 'm glad i decided against handing over that half a percent of elq to him . that would 've been the nail in the coffin . lulu : i just ca n't believe that he stood here right in front of me and tried to trick you into giving him control of elq . all that talk about letting you be independent from the quartermaines was a bunch of bull . and i encouraged you to take the deal . i 'm so sorry . dillon : hey , you had no idea . lulu : well , at least he only has 50 % of the voting stock . at most , he can deadlock your family . dillon : yeah , unless it comes down to a tiebreaker . lucy : yoo - hoo ! oh ! yoo - hoo ! quartermaines ? quartermaines , where are you ? alice said i should show myself into the study , which is no problem because i used to live here , briefly , but i lived ... here . dillon : [ lowered voice ] lulu , i got ta call you back . lulu : is everything okay ? dillon : oh , yeah . bye . lulu : okay , bye . [ knock on door ] lulu : maxie , hi . maxie : hi . are you alone ? lulu : uh ... yeah . uh , rocco -- he 's asleep , and dante 's at work . maxie : oh , good , because i was in the city getting my hair cut , and i picked up a special batch of baked by clarissa 's . they even have our names on them . lulu : uh , what do you want ? maxie : excusez - moi ? lulu : cupcakes are to you what bridge closures are to mayor lomax . you definitely want something . maxie : okay , fine . uh , i - i maybe stuck my nose into your business and made matters worse . lulu : you mean when you tore valerie 's head off about that stupid headline in the press ? maxie : so you 've heard . [ chuckles ] let me guess . did dante go off about me ? lulu : uh , i actually have n't spoken to dante yet . but valerie -- she had a few things to say . maxie : ugh . [ scene_break ] valerie : dante , seriously , everything 's fine . consider the air cleared . dante : she did n't give you a hard time about that article , right ? valerie : no , nothing like that . she said she appreciated me coming to her and that she believed me . dante : right . that 's why i told you . we 're good . valerie : yep . [ telephone ringing ] dante : what 's bothering you ? valerie : [ sighs ] what makes you so sure something 's bothering me ? maybe i 'm just moody . dante : no , what you are is a terrible liar . what is going on ? what is it ? was there something about you and me ? what ? valerie : no , it has to do with lulu and dillon . [ scene_break ] lucy : it is so good to see you ! you look so good . you really -- dillon , you look great . dillon : it 's -- it 's good to see you , too . lucy : okay , i got your mother 's message . she called and said -- thank you -- that she needed my services right away . so of course , i marched over here pronto . but what i take this to mean is that luke has finally come to his senses and the engagement with tracy is back on , which , frankly , i find very surprising . why would she take that dumb - dumb back ? like , right ? so easily ? groveling . i bet it was groveling . and jewelry . you know , turquoise for me , right now , is very important . it 's kinda spiritual . and diamonds . if i could get diamonds and groveling , then i probably would do -- dillon : no . that 's actually not the case . lucy : it 's not ? dillon : no . my mother and luke are not engaged . in fact , luke and laura actually left town together . [ scene_break ] luke : jennifer , that sham engagement of ours was back in the carter administration . now i do n't know if anybody 's ever explained this to you before , but when you do n't see anyone or talk to them for decades , it indicates that the relationship is over . it 's over , jennifer ! move on ! jennifer : i have moved on , luke . give me more credit than that . but i will tell you , in the last 10 years or so , i started cataloguing my relationships . you know , my first marriage to bogs ended in disaster . then i was pen pals with this inmate named whitey parrish . that ... was weird . wait , was that his name ? whitey parrish ? who knows ? anyway , another dead . and i was even swindled by a guy in wales who claimed to be a lord . laura : you really know how to pick 'em , do n't you , jennifer ? jennifer : you know , despite your judgey tone , laura , i agree with you . the disaster that is my personal life is my own doing . i spent my first act letting daddy set up dates with me , and i spent the next act seeking out the unattainable . well , after years of therapy , i finally got to the root of why i ca n't let someone else into my heart . and that is because i never got closure with my first love . ahab never got to conquer his white whale . you 're my white whale , luke , and i can not move on with my life until i land you , even if it 's for just one night . [ scene_break ] patrick : why would -- why would nikolas be trying to take over elq ? i mean , that does n't make a lot of sense to me . he 's got a ton going on with the fire , spencer 's injury , not to mention his grandmother . sam : well , this is partly helena 's doing . apparently , she and victor had been siphoning funds from the cassadine fortune , and nikolas needs a new source of income to ensure the future of spencer . patrick : the guy 's got enough money , does n't he ? sam : [ sighs deeply ] jake : you do n't sound convinced . sam : well , i just -- i do n't think it 's just about the money . i mean , you should 've seen the look in his eye . it was like he wants to be in charge again . jake : okay , i 'm officially lost now . elizabeth : well , he had a very painful , very public breakup with dr. obrecht 's daughter , britt westbourne . sam : yeah . i mean , she basically lied to him the entire time they were in the relationship . jake : so , what , you lose your sense of right and wrong when you get screwed over ? patrick : i - i do n't know . i just do n't buy it . i spend a lot of time with him . he has n't -- he has n't shown anything to me about this . what about you ? does he ... any indication ? elizabeth : mm , mnh - mnh . no , nothing . sam : he kept everyone he was close to in the dark about this . i would say that it is the biggest guilty secret ever . i would be pissed right now if i was n't so upset . you think you know someone , and it turns out that they are keeping something so huge from you . [ scene_break ] nikolas : well , i can understand ... [ sighs ] how this all might be , uh , disappointing to you , michael . michael : no , disappointing is when you lose a game fair and square . but you , you -- you stacked the deck . you got those shares illegally . nikolas : business is business . i sincerely hope that we can learn to be allies . tracy : why would any of us align ourselves with you ? nikolas : because there 's nothing you can do to keep me from taking control of this company and making it mine . michael : the hell there is n't . we may be deadlocked , but the family does have a secret weapon -- lucy coe . [ scene_break ] lucy : i 'm sorry that , uh , things did n't work out for your mother . actually , i 'm gon na tell you something between us . do n't tell her , but i always , um , i - i think of tracy as being luke 's best relationship because she always somehow kept him in line without domesticating him , and she never really guilted him , and she was definitely his very best sparring partner . dillon : lucy , the reason i -- lucy : you know , but i still ca n't figure this out . it 's very surprising that he would still be dwelling on the grand affair with laura . i mean , i thought that was a long time ago in the past , but ... i guess it 's kinda like in the past -- me and scott . me and ... doc . me and duke . dillon : lucy , the reason my mother called you over here had nothing to do with her broken engagement to luke . lucy : oh ... okay . what does it have to do with ? dillon : the fate of elq rests in your hands . [ scene_break ] dante : dillon ? what has he got to do with anything ? valerie : forget i said anything . i should let you get back to work . dante : well , i - i ca n't . i ca n't . i ca n't . you ca n't say something like that and just leave me hanging . what is it ? valerie : it 's probably nothing , okay ? dante : what is nothing ? [ police radio chatter ] valerie : [ huffs ] when i got to your place , i saw lulu and dillon ... hugging . dante : well , uh ... they 're old friends . so what ? valerie : exactly . so what ? dante : okay . wait , val . please , valerie okay ? it ca n't just be that . [ puts file down ] otherwise you would n't have said anything . the more you dodge , the kind of weirder i 'm starting to feel about all this . so why do n't you just tell me what it is ? valerie : i heard them say something about keeping a big secret from everyone ... you in particular . [ scene_break ] lulu : valerie came over to clear the air . she said that she took the job at the pcpd , because the work interests her , that she and dante are just friends , and she totally respects our marriage . maxie : and you believe her ? lulu : she has n't given me a reason not to . she seemed really up - front about it . maxie : okay . all right , fine . she 's your family , so you kind of have to believe her . but i am more than willing to be the bad guy in this situation if you need me to be . lulu : i know . maxie : you know i always have your back no matter what . lulu : i do know that , and i appreciate it . maxie : see ? you are worried about this . lulu : no , i have something way more important to worry about than whether valerie is playing work wife with my husband or not . maxie : uh , hello ? what could be more important than the status of your marriage ? [ scene_break ] laura : this is so sick . luke : jennifer , look , i do n't care if i 'm your white whale , your winged platypus , or your grandma 's bloomers . jennifer : why are you making me sound like i 'm some sort of unstable person ? i may have made your life hell , but i was never a loon . i 'm being pragmatic . i know what my heart needs to lead a healthy life . i have what you need . it 's a win - win situation . laura : except for luke 's bride - to - be . jennifer : oh , god ! all of a sudden , you care about tracy 's feelings ! oh ! you ca n't stand the woman . what is this to you ? laura : uh , well , let 's see . how about the fact that what you 're proposing here is no `` indecent proposal . `` this is rape . jennifer : excuse you ? did you just call me a rapist ? laura : i am calling out the situation for what it is . you know , this movie that you like , `` indecent proposal `` ? that was a little bit more of a business transaction , sort of , uh , along the same lines of prostitution . jennifer : ohh . you mean like dear old barbara jean . laura : this is not a financial deal . you are using our son and threatening his life to ... force luke to sleep with you , and that is coercion . and in some states , jennifer , that 's considered rape . jennifer : you know , laura ? i guess you and i are just never really going to agree on how to label this . but even if we did , quite frankly , i 'm really ... [ chuckles ] i 'm surprised by your attitude . i am . because after all , would n't it kind of be poetic justice for luke to experience the hell he put you through ? [ scene_break ] dante : i do n't get it . what kind of secret could lulu and dillon be keeping from me ? [ telephone ringing ] valerie : i do n't know . that 's all i heard . i was n't trying to eavesdrop . i just wanted to get out of there , but before i could leave , lulu saw me . dante : how did she react ? valerie : she seemed a little freaked out . but she was probably just surprised that she and dillon were n't alone . dante : well , that does n't really sound like her . valerie : like i said before , it was probably nothing . i just ... misheard or whatever . i doubt there 's anything that you need to worry about . dante : yeah . you 're probably right . [ scene_break ] maxie : what is up ? besides the possibility that valerie is getting too friendly with dante . lulu : you know , i was talking about the haunted star . i just have to make sure that we stay in the black . maxie : business is booming . that place practically runs itself . what 's really going on ? lulu : just leave it alone , please ? maxie : nobody on the planet would buy that lame evasion , especially not me , your best friend . something is upsetting you . rocco is asleep , and we have cupcakes . lay it on me . lulu : are you sure that you 're not just bored , now that everything is good with you and nathan ? i think maybe you 're looking for some excitement . maxie : my life is plenty exciting , thank you very much . and i do n't know why you 're dragging this out when we both know you 're gon na tell me what 's going on . lulu : i am trying to tell you , but you 're not listening . there 's no big secret . maxie : is it because you think i wo n't understand ? you know you can tell me anything , lulu . i have your back . lulu : dillon and i ca n't tell anyone , okay ? not even dante . maxie : dillon ? hold up . is something going on between you and dillon ? lulu : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] dillon : nikolas has commandeered a large amount of elq 's voting stock . he 's going to be making some big moves soon . lucy : hmm . that 's interesting . very surprising . what does this have to do with me ? dillon : at the moment , he 's only been able to amass 50 % . the rest is firmly secured within the family . so whatever play nikolas makes , it will come down to a tie . [ scene_break ] tracy : did n't you know that my late brother gave lucy coe a small stake in the company in their divorce ? michael : but it only comes into play when it 's deadlocked , and since lucy 's a friend of the family ... sorry , but you are nothing but a lame duck to this board . nikolas : [ chuckles ] even a lame duck can cause a hell of a lot of annoyance . all i have to do is wear down just one of your family members . and eventually , they will break rank and realize the incredible financial opportunity i 'm offering them . [ drawer opens ] michael : well ... [ sighs ] i am not gon na let that happen . nikolas : edward 's will . michael : part of it . check out section `` t , `` clause 7 . to prevent any quartermaine from taking sole control , my great - grandfather created a loophole . if any individual or tlc obtains more than one - third of the company , a majority of the board have the option of stripping that person of their voting rights . so you , yes , would own part of this company , but in name only . all the financial drain but none of the influence . actually , you know , right now , i 'm gon na call an emergency shareholders meeting and for the sole purpose of voting you out . tracy : michael , how quartermaine of you . michael : just admit it , nikolas . you lost .

[ both laugh ] sasha : okay . okay . quinn : before they take me away , please , i - i -- i need to apologize . to all of you . wyatt . there 's only one good thing that -- that came out of all of this , and that 's -- that 's the pain that i wake up with every morning , the emptiness ... it 's gone . wyatt : what -- what pain ? quinn : being me . feeling like i 'm not a good person . i have been a hard , bitter person ever since i can remember . and the only way that i was able to survive that is -- is to shut off my feelings and not care about anybody but myself . and later , my son . till now . s - spending that time with you , a man with no memory , i did n't have to hide who i was anymore . i - i -- i could show you my feelings . i can let you see who i really am . and i - i know it started out as a deception . and i feel so badly about that . but i do n't regret how it turned out . if you press charges , and i go to jail , i - i totally understand . but it does n't change the way i feel . and i want you to know -- i - i want you all to know ... how my time with liam has changed me . 'cause it healed all my old wounds . and it filled me with so much hope of what is still to come . liam : take her away . [ police radio chatter ] [ car door opens ] liam : no , quinn wanted my help . wyatt : she did n't hurt you , did she ? threaten you ? steffy : no , no . no , quinn wanted my help . she wanted me to try to convince you guys to forgive her . i do n't know . she 's -- she 's delusional . wyatt : [ sighs ] she 's used to it , because i always forgave her . but now , how ? how can i do that ? after what she did to you ? liam : well , she 's about to pay for it . [ sighs ] but she 's your mom , you know ? she 's your mom , and she 's your mother - in - law . so i know this is n't easy for either of you . forgive her if you want , you know , if it feels right . but ... boy , i 'm glad i do n't have to . [ indistinct conversations ] lt . baker : oh , ms . fuller . good to see you . have a seat . thank you . we 'll take over from here . now , if you 'd care to wait for your lawyer -- quinn : no . there 's no need to wait . if liam wants me in jail , so be it . caroline : zende ! did you hear ? zende : about nicole ? yeah , yeah . uh , i was just with her . caroline : oh , at the hospital ? zende : no , at -- at forrester , before she took off with rick and maya . you know , i do n't need to be there , you know , interfering with the moment . caroline : mm , that 's what sasha was saying . zende : sasha . is she here ? she texted me . caroline : yes . she 's , uh -- she 's down at the pool waiting to surprise you . zende : [ chuckles ] caroline : you did n't hear that from me . zende : it 's okay . i 'll act surprised . caroline : are you sure that 's what you want to be doing , though -- you know , hanging poolside with sasha ? i mean , i know that you and nicole are n't together anymore , but it might be nice if she had some support . zende : she 's got support . caroline : yeah , but ... rick and maya are the parents , so they 're kind of gon na be more focused on the baby . how wonderful would it be if nicole had someone that was just focused solely on her ? or you can , you know , go swimming with sasha . i mean , she 's sexy and hot . i totally get it . she 's probably the distraction that you 've been needing . although , there is something more meaningful you could be doing with your time . think about it . [ heartbeat on monitor ] dr. farrell : it 's a good thing you came in when you did . these contractions are getting closer . nicole : mm - hmm . actually -- yep , here we go .

[ sighs ] i do n't know what the hell is going on around here . quinn : i just wanted steffy 's help because i knew that she would know how i feel about you ! i love you ! i do . do n't let them take me away from you , please . please . liam : [ groans ] edwards : and then how did you get out of the closet ? quinn : was n't hard to push the door open . the lock was basically useless anyway . lt . baker : is there anything else you 'd like to add ? quinn : yeah . i took care of liam . i kept him safe . and if the state thinks that it 's worth it to send me to jail , if liam does , then fine . i hope it does n't turn out that way . lt . baker : thank you . quinn : can you love me ? liam : [ chuckles ] of course i love you . quinn : your eyes are so gentle . sasha : grab you a beer ? zende : no . no , thanks . it 's kind of early , you know . besides , i 'm -- i , uh -- i 'm not in the mood . sasha : i 'm assuming you heard about nicole ? zende : big day . sasha : yeah , for rick and maya . it 's so crazy . she 's giving birth to your cousin right now . how messed up is that ?

[ gigi sighs ] gigi : it 's great just to be able to call him again . schuyler : you guys are talking a lot ? gigi : constantly . although , i ca n't call him when he 's sleeping . schuyler : well , yeah , because he 's sleeping with stacy . gigi : and that 's all they 're doing , sleeping . he 's never laid a finger on her . schuyler : he told you that ? gigi : he did n't have to . schuyler : okay , did you ever worry that they might have hooked up ? gigi : okay , just because you worry about something , it does n't mean that it 'll happen . schuyler : yeah , but what about that time that we , like , found them together ? gigi : rex said that did n't mean anything . schuyler : is that all he said ? gigi : what else would he say ? schuyler : did rex absolutely deny sleeping with stacy ?

[ scene_break ] bo : i think that about covers everything , except -- brody : what ? bo : why do you want to be a cop ? brody : like you said , this is close to being in the service . bo : and you like that ? brody : i was proud to serve my country . but it was more than that . every day , we saw people in harm 's way , and i felt like i had a chance to do something about that , to make a difference in people 's lives . i thought maybe i could do the same thing here . bo : you already have . when jessica was missing , you made a difference in her life , and her whole family 's .

[ scene_break ] bo : how does jessica feel about you being a cop ? brody : it 's what i want , to be worthy of her . that 's why i did n't want her to call you . any job i ca n't get on my own is n't worth having . bo : what about this job ?

[ scene_break ] jessica : hey . what did you get up to this morning after i left you ? brody : i went over to the police station . jessica : you did ? brody : i started filling out the application . there are all these questions about whether you had a record or a history of mental problems . it just seemed like a waste of time . jessica : so you did n't fill out the application . brody : i was n't going to . and then i ran into your uncle bo . we had a good talk . jessica : and ? brody : i decided to give it a shot . jessica : oh , brody , that 's so great . brody : i hope so . it 's all up to your uncle bo now . [ scene_break ] gigi : you really ca n't be around stacy ? rex : being around her is okay . except for wanting to strangle her . almost showering with her , that 's a different story . gigi : `` almost `` ? rex : i got out of it . then she -- kissed me . i swear , i wanted to knock her down . gigi : but we ca n't let her know the truth until we find that blood . rex : so that 's what we 're going to do , right now . gigi : how ? rex : stacy gave me an idea .

[ scene_break ] stacy : and that 's just a preview . rex : wow , and when do i get the whole show ? stacy : maybe after our date tonight if you 're lucky . rex : i hope so . and you were right . i do feel weird about gigi . but i know who i want . that 's never going to change . stacy : well , i will be counting the minutes till tonight . [ scene_break ] gigi : do n't worry . the only person rex is playing is stacy . schuyler : yeah . are you sure ? gigi : i told you , he believed everything i said about her . [ gigi sighs ] gigi : it 's great just to be able to call him again . schuyler : you guys are talking a lot ? gigi : constantly . although , i ca n't call him when he 's sleeping . schuyler : well , yeah , because he 's sleeping with stacy . gigi : and that 's all they 're doing , sleeping . he 's never laid a finger on her . schuyler : he told you that ? gigi : he did n't have to . schuyler : okay , did you ever worry that they might have hooked up ? gigi : okay , just because you worry about something , it does n't mean that it 'll happen . schuyler : yeah , but what about that time that we , like , found them together ? gigi : rex said that did n't mean anything . schuyler : is that all he said ? gigi : what else would he say ? schuyler : did rex absolutely deny sleeping with stacy ? [ scene_break ] justice : mr. manning , mrs. mcbain , i 'll need the consent form . blair : well , where is it ? todd : what are you looking at me for ? i do n't have it . blair : i gave it to you . todd : no , you did n't . blair : yes , i did . i gave it to you , todd . todd : yeah , okay , i guess you did . justice : ah , yes . aha . well . well , everything appears to be in good order . we can proceed . [ scene_break ] brody : and then before we go back to base , we do a final perimeter sweep . bo : looks like you 're ahead of the game in terms of experience . brody : so i guess that means it 's time to talk about this stuff with rex . bo : i 'm familiar with everything that happened last fall . brody : not last fall . the past few months . everything with him and gigi . bo : mm - hmm . i know a little something about that , and i know that it has nothing to do with your ability to be a good cop . brody : but he 's your friend . bo : you know , as commissioner of police , my responsibility is to my officers , the department , the public at large . as long as you do n't interfere with that , your private life is really none of my business . brody : i want you to know , i never meant to screw up rex 's life . [ bo chuckles ] bo : you know , he has a way of creating enough trouble himself , believe me . brody : what do you mean ? bo : balsom -- lately , nobody seems to know where his head 's at . at least , not me . [ scene_break ] gigi : why are you saying this ? you know how hard it is for me to deal with stacy living with rex . schuyler : yeah , i know . gigi : i 'm happy again , so why do you want to make me feel bad ? schuyler : i do n't , i do n't . believe me , that 's the last thing i want to do . gigi : then leave it alone . schuyler : ca n't . not with you . gigi : what does that mean ? [ schuyler sighs ] schuyler : you and me , we 're friends , right ? gigi : you put me on to stacy , we 're friends for life . schuyler : okay , well , i have a rule with friends ever since i got clean . nothing but total honestly . gigi : good rule . schuyler : except when it means maybe telling them something that they do n't want to hear . gigi : like what ? what do you want to tell me that i do n't want to hear ? schuyler : it 's about rex and stacy . rex : hey . what about rex and stacy ? [ scene_break ] stacy : rex ? rex : i think we 've waited long enough . [ scene_break ] john : no way i finish this operation in a month . judge runyon : do n't sell yourself short -- john : it 'll take that long just to train cole . judge runyon : then you 'd better start today . john : you 're kidding me . judge runyon : i 'm not signing off on an open - ended fishing expedition for you and mr. thornhart . you have one month , or thornhart serves his sentence . do n't look so disappointed . everyone knows john mcbain knows how to get results . just get them a little faster . justice : we are gathered here today in the presence of these witnesses to join starr manning and cole thornhart in matrimony which is commended to be honorable among men . and therefore , is not to be entered into unadvisedly or lightly , but reverently , discreetly , advisedly , and solemnly . into this estate these two persons present now come to be joined . if any person can show just cause why they may not be joined together , let them speak now or forever hold their peace . now -- todd : wait a minute . i have something to say . if i can just say this one thing , and then i 'll shut up . i 've always maintained that i do n't think this marriage is a very good idea , and i still do n't . of course , i do n't think any marriage is a good idea . and i should know , i 've seen enough of them . but , maybe i 'm wrong , you know ? there 's a first time for everything . maybe this is it . maybe this is going to work out between the two of you . i hope it does , i really do . because the last thing i want for you , starr , is to end up like me . and i 'm going to do my damnedest from here on out to make sure that does n't happen . yeah , that 's it . justice : anyone else ? let 's continue . [ scene_break ] bo : i think that about covers everything , except -- brody : what ? bo : why do you want to be a cop ? brody : like you said , this is close to being in the service . bo : and you like that ? brody : i was proud to serve my country . but it was more than that . every day , we saw people in harm 's way , and i felt like i had a chance to do something about that , to make a difference in people 's lives . i thought maybe i could do the same thing here . bo : you already have . when jessica was missing , you made a difference in her life , and her whole family 's . [ scene_break ] jessica : what does stacy have over rex and gigi now ? natalie : rex kind of wants me to keep quiet about that . but anyway , i just -- i want to apologize for all the crap that i said about brody . jessica : oh , it 's okay . you thought that -- natalie : no , jessica , i was wrong , okay ? brody 's a good man . [ scene_break ] bo : how does jessica feel about you being a cop ? brody : it 's what i want , to be worthy of her . that 's why i did n't want her to call you . any job i ca n't get on my own is n't worth having . bo : what about this job ? [ scene_break ] jessica : thank you for saying that about brody . i know you were just worried about me . i know you just want me to be happy . natalie : oh , god , jess , that 's all i want . i just feel like all i ever do is screw things up for you , you know ? i tried to break you and brody up . i did n't tell you about the baby . jessica : no , you did n't think i was stable enough to hear the truth , and you were right . natalie : i just -- i want you to know that all of the wrong things that i have done , it 's -- it 's because i wanted to do right by you . jessica : i know . can you do me a favor ? natalie : name it . jessica : do n't ever stop . [ scene_break ] gigi : i 'm so happy to see you . rex : were you guys talking about stacy and me ? gigi : oh , schuyler just wanted to know what was going on . rex : is that why you 're here ? gigi : he wanted to make sure i was okay . rex : why would n't you be okay ? gigi : he still thought that you were with stacy . schuyler : yeah , look , gigi set me straight , though . it 's a good thing she talked to you before things went too far , you know -- with stacy . rex : gigi says you 've been a good friend . schuyler : yeah , well , it 's not like it 's hard . rex : i did n't make it any easier . gigi also told me that you were the one who figured out stacy could n't be the donor and that there was nothing going on between the two of you . schuyler : no , no , there was n't . rex : i owe you . i 'm sorry for everything i said . schuyler : well , you know , stacy was playing you . it probably was n't easy to keep a clear head . rex : still is n't . gigi : why , what 'd she do now ? schuyler : hey , you know what ? i should go . gigi : oh , sorry . stacy 's probably the last thing you want to hear about . schuyler : no , no , no , i got to go to work . i 'll see you later , gigi . rex . rex : take care . gigi : bye . rex : i 've got to find that blood . gigi : still no luck ? rex : i did n't have a chance . gigi : what happened ? i told you i can take it . rex : i do n't know if i can . one more minute with stacy -- i 'm afraid of what i 'll do to her . [ scene_break ] john : thanks for letting me use the office , bo . bo : no problem . how 'd it go with runyon ? did he give you the green light ? john : but that 's it . bo : really ? well , it sounds like you got a job to do , then . john : already on it . [ scene_break ] justice : who supports this couple in marriage ? todd : that 'd be me . justice : dear family and friends , starr and cole have invited you here today to witness and celebrate this public declaration of the private commitment they 've already made to one another . you know the happiness they found together . and now you are witnesses to the pledges they make for the mutual service of their common life . they will need your support and friendship in the future , as well as they do on this day . do you offer your support and blessing for this couple and wish them the best of lives together ? all : we do . dorian : we do . justice : it 's time for the vows . are you ready ? [ scene_break ] jessica : hey . what did you get up to this morning after i left you ? brody : i went over to the police station . jessica : you did ? brody : i started filling out the application . there are all these questions about whether you had a record or a history of mental problems . it just seemed like a waste of time . jessica : so you did n't fill out the application . brody : i was n't going to . and then i ran into your uncle bo . we had a good talk . jessica : and ? brody : i decided to give it a shot . jessica : oh , brody , that 's so great . brody : i hope so . it 's all up to your uncle bo now . [ scene_break ] gigi : you really ca n't be around stacy ? rex : being around her is okay . except for wanting to strangle her . almost showering with her , that 's a different story . gigi : `` almost `` ? rex : i got out of it . then she -- kissed me . i swear , i wanted to knock her down . gigi : but we ca n't let her know the truth until we find that blood . rex : so that 's what we 're going to do , right now . gigi : how ? rex : stacy gave me an idea . [ scene_break ] starr : i , starr manning , take you , cole thornhart , to be my husband . to have and to hold , from this day forward , for better , for worse , for richer , poorer , through sickness and in health , to love and to cherish , until death do us part . cole : i , cole thornhart , take you , starr manning , to be my wife . to have and to hold from this day forward , for better , for worse , for richer , for poorer , in sickness and in health , to love and to cherish , till death do us part . justice : do you have rings that you wish to exchange ? starr and cole : yes , we do . justice : cole , will you give your ring to starr and repeat these words . i give you this ring as a reminder of the promises we exchanged today . cole : i give you this ring as a reminder of the promises we exchanged today . justice : starr , will you give your ring to cole ? starr : i give you this ring as a reminder of the promises we exchanged today . justice : starr and cole , you have exchanged your promises and given and received rings in my presence . therefore , according to the laws of the commonwealth of pennsylvania , i hereby pronounce you -- addie : john mcbain .Summarize.[/INST]starr and cole 's wedding is underway . it appears awkward . but nobody prevents it from going through until john comes through the door . john has been talking to the judge who sentenced cole and has convinced him to let cole go undercover in order to bust the drug dealer . but he tells john that they have a one month deadline . gigi and rex are ready to get back together . but he still knows he must make stacy believe that he 's `` with `` her . schuyler has his reservations that rex is faithful to gigi when he remembers stacy informing him that she and rex slept together . natalie admits to jessica that she was wrong to judge brody harshly and knows that he is the man for her sister . meanwhile , brody goes to the police station ready to give up on applying for a job when it asks if he 's ever been convicted for a felony or hospitalized for psychiatric disorders . but bo finds him and tells him he 'd like to give him a chance .</s> | 14,348 |

gus : women , they 're hard to trust . olivia : try being one . gus : maybe that 's my problem . i should never have trusted her , ever . frank : you bastard ! harley : god . the mallet was right , that drying room could double as a sauna . lena : god knows i tried to warn you , did n't any . harley : thank you for reminding me . lena : i never in all the history of this joint have ever heard anybody turning down a desk job for the drying room . lena : lena , there are all kinds of torture . lena : listen to me . there are windows in there . there 's a coffee machine . and the air is n't full of lint and steam . harley : what do you care what i do ? you would n't even talk to me when i got here . lena : because i need to get by in this place , too ? you got that ? you understand that . harley : meaning what ? lena : if you have an in with the big guy , that makes things smoother for me . i deserve a good ride here . i 've been here a long time . and if you 'd just take a pass on a job like this , it hurts me , you get that ?

edmund : i 'm going to get coffee . be gone when i get back . cassie : is the baby okay ? dr. sedwick : the baby 's perfectly fine . cassie : thank god . dinah : what about the mom ? dr. sedwick : i think that you 've been under quite a bit of stress lately , dinah . you 've just got to relax more . cassie : is that it ?

cassie : i know . and you did the right thing . i 'm going to let you get dressed . dinah : cassie , wait . i ca n't do this . make you worry for no reason . cassie : but there 's nothing to worry about . dr. sedwick says everything is fine . dinah : there never was because there was n't a problem tonight . edmund made me fake it . coming up on `` guiding light `` ... frank : you go ahead and walk away . i will find who killed phillip . gus : you can ask me right now . she 's in a cell and her name is harley cooper . harley : why do you want me to work here ? and do n't give me that crap about me being reliable . you have no idea who i am anymore . mallet : i remember who you used to be . dinah : edmund wanted to get you back so desperately he made this all up . cassie : i do n't believe this . dinah ... dinah : you ca n't tell him i told you . cassie : get out of the way . dinah : if you go out there and go off on edmund , he 's going to know i told you . imagine the tension that would cause between the three of us . look , it 's not worth it . besides , edmund meant well in his own way . cassie : really ? dinah : he did it because he loves you . it 's a little icky to use a baby as a tool to get you back , but we both know that edmund is extreme at times . cassie : why are you telling me this ? dinah : i have lost two babies myself and i would n't want you to go through that kind of fear again . cassie : thank you . dinah : so we 'll keep this between us ? cassie : finish getting dressed . where 's edmund ? jeffrey : he went to get a coffee . how 's the baby ? cassie : fine . fine . jeffrey : all right . listen , i think i 'll go then unless you need me for something else . cassie : no , i 'm okay . thank you . thank you for tonight . i really had fun . jeffrey : okay . see you later . cassie : bye . edmund : hey , there you are . what did the doctor say ? is it serious ? cassie ? cassie , come on , you have to tell me . cassie : the baby 's fine . edmund : oh , thank god . thank god , i was so worried there was something wrong with our baby . gus : let go of me , frank . frank : stop trashing my sister . gus : i believe facts . i 'm a cop at the end of the day . get off me ! frank : i believe in harley . gus : stop dreaming . olivia : he has a point . frank : do me a favor , stay out of this . gus : think what you want to think , frank , i 'm done . i 'm walking away . she put a lot of effort into pushing me away , that 's it . i 'm out , okay ? frank : that 's fine by me . you walk away but i will find who killed phillip . gus : you can ask me , she 's in a cell at vailsburg and her name is harley cooper . frank : is she really ? mallet : and these are the intake files i want arranged chronologically instead of alphabetically . it will speed up processing . harley : fine . mallet : any questions ? harley : yeah . why do you want me to work here ? and do n't give me that crap about me being reliable . you have no idea who i am anymore . mallet : i remember who you used to be . i mean , you know , you always had super neat handwriting , you were always great with details and people like that are in short supply in this place . harley : i 'll bet . mallet : the you 're not buying anything i 'm telling you , how come you 're not still in the basement slinging cheer ? harley : let 's just say i rethought my position . mallet : hey , does your dad still have that bike ? harley : my dad ? yeah , he still has it . mallet : and how are frank and eleni ? harley : divorced . actually , eleni lives in california . mallet : wow , with marina ? harley : no , we have her . i mean my father and frank have her . mallet : along with the boys ? harley : with my boys , uh - huh . you know what ? can we not pretend you did n't read my file ? you know everything you need to know . mallet : about the shooting . not about your life . what were the names of your boys again ? harley : zach and jude . they 're sweet . i think they 're smart . and cute , obviously . and everyday i wonder how that happened . mallet : wow . that 's so weird that you have these kids that i do n't even know . harley : i know . no , it 's not weird . you were n't around , remember ? let 's just bag this little chat . mallet : come on , harley . it 's just ... harley : i do n't want to think about my life out there . i do n't want to be reminded of what it used to be or how is it now . i just want to do my job and do my time , okay ? do n't you have work that you have to do , warden ? danny : michelle , i want you to be happy . that 's all i ever wanted . that has never changed . michelle : yeah , well , marrying tony would change things , you know . danny : that 's true . hey , you deserve whatever you want . fit 's tony , then it 's tony . michelle : you know , tony is a really good guy . danny : must be that santos charm . michelle : and he makes me happy . danny : then marry him , michelle . marry him . look , i 'm really sorry that i kissed you before . michelle : you are ? danny : uh - huh . yeah . obviously it was n't fair to any of us : you , me , tony , marina . not when things are going to change . michelle : yeah , well i guess we should just consider it a good - bye kiss , then , right ? dinah : well , you 're too late . i 'm already dressed . jeffrey : what happened here tonight , dinah ? dinah : actually , the baby got a good clean bill of health . i 'm very relieved . jeffrey : well , that 's the press release . now how about the real stories ? as a matter of fact , why do n't you back it up as to how you got pregnant in the first place and why ? dinah : because i finally found something i 'm good at , something that i can do good with . jeffrey : that 's a nice sound bite but somehow the idea of dinah marler carrying cassie winslow 's child does n't quite strike me as the kind selfless act that you make it out to be . dinah : i must have an ulterior dark motive , is that it ? jeffrey : yeah that 's it . dinah : why is it so hard for you to believe that i 've turned a coroner my life ? jeffrey : because i know you , dinah . and i know for a fact you do n't want cassie and edmund together so why would you carry their child ? dinah : you must have a theory . why do n't you run it by me . jeffrey : you know what you did was illegal , right ? dinah : edmund and i have a signed agreement . jeffrey : you did n't inform cassie . dinah : we tried to reach her , but she was unavailable . jeffrey : oh , here we go . well , you 've got a comeback for everything . dinah : it 's called the truth . jeffrey : here 's the truth . if you hurt cassie in any way , shape or form i will make your life more hellish than the most difficult delivery ever . dinah : you do n't have to worry about me . edmund : tonight 's been a wakeup call for me , cassie . cassie : yeah , for me , too . edmund : i just ca n't take for granted that our baby is going to be fine for the next eight months . cassie : yeah . you never know what issues might pop up . edmund : exactly . that 's why it 's so critical for us to be there for the baby . together . it really is our solemn duty . cassie , if you think about it , it 's why i 'm sorry , i just ca n't sign the separation papers . cassie : yeah . the baby needs the best of both of us , right ? edmund : exactly . and that 's us together . i 'm glad you understand that . so i 'll keep you abreast of my schedule and i hope you 'll do the same for me . the closer we keep tabs on one another , the better , i think . for baby , anyway . cassie : stop it . edmund : sorry ? cassie : stop it . how could you do this to me ? danny : you 're still here ? michelle : yup . yeah , i was just sitting here thinking . is robbie awake ? danny : no . no . he 's out cold . he 's starting to sleep now the way you do : with his left arm sticking straight out . michelle : that 's my boy . danny : so what were you thinking about ? michelle : just how i 'm going to break it to tony that we 're not going to get married tomorrow night . danny : well , michelle , you do n't have to break it to him . not if you can get married . michelle : i thought you said the judge ... danny : i know , it 's postponed until next week , but there could be a way around it . michelle : oh , yeah ? how ? danny : well , if you really want to marry tony tomorrow , you and i can hop on a plane to vegas , get a quickie divorce , you can be back by first thing tomorrow so you can marry tony . michelle : that is crazy ! danny : but efficient . michelle : i would never make you go through all that trouble . danny : it 's not trouble . and , look , to be honest i would rather get this over with myself ... rind ianawr w ysveomn . we 're due . michelle : okay . yeah . great then . danny : so , is that what we want to do ? do a divorce vegas style ? it would be an adventure . michelle : great . let 's do it . tony : hey , marina . hi , this is tony santos and i am checking in tomorrow . i need a favor . i need a bottle of champagne on ice in my bedroom , a lot of chocolate because she ... well , she loves chocolate . can you do that for me ? all right . you 're the man . thank you . marina : chocolate and champagne ? count me . tony : ( laughs ) maybe next time there , scooter . this time around it 's me and michelle on the beach in sunny hawaii . marina : but is n't tomorrow ... tony : it 's the hearing but tomorrow it 's final we 're eloping , getting this over with . marina : whoa , drastic . tony : romantic would be the word . remember , i told you that i would do anything to hang on to michelle , did n't i ? well , this is it . marina : well , there 's no rush danny and michelle are getting their divorce , okay ? they 're done . tony : well , i 'll tell you what , marina , you believe that , okay . marina : i believe in danny . tony : you do , huh ? then you ask him why he was kissing michelle tonight . olivia : frank does n't understand how hard you fought for harley . gus : i do n't blame him . he loves his sister . olivia : so do you . gus : i do n't blame harley , either , for killing phillip . olivia : well , it 's a dirty job , but somebody had to do it . gus : phillip did a lot of horrible things to people . i ... it 's like he would n't give up , you know ? he just kept asking for it and asking for it . olivia : you think ? gus : i that what we should do is what you said . all this misery that he created and left us all in , we should get past it , we should move on . olivia : yeah , it 's a fat chance . gus : you said it . you said we should ... olivia : i know what i said . it 's a good idea in theory but it just shows you how malignant phillip was . he 's been dead for so many months and everybody who had contact with him is still down in this muck he left behind . gus : it 's good that you 're not bitter . olivia : you can joke all you want but your life is n't exactly humming along , is it ? gus : you think that was phillip 's fault ? olivia : it 's all phillip 's fault . do n't you understand ? he set all of this in motion , even harley and bill , this fling or whatever it was that they had . they would never have been together except they tried to bring down phillip . it 's like it 's his parting gift from the grave , you know ? if he were alive he would be laughing his head off . but he 's not . he 's dead and he deserves to be dead . i 'm sorry it did n't happen sooner . harley : ( sighs ) well , well , well . once a liar , always a liar . cassie : this was a setup . edmund : what ? cassie : there 's nothing wrong with dinah . she does n't have a hang nail , much less a headache or any abdominal pain . edmund : cassie , how could you think that ? cassie : you knew a good scare about the baby would bring me to the hospital where you 'd be . edmund : cassie , what has dinah been saying ? cassie : dinah did n't say anything to me , edmund , except how relieved she is that the baby is fine . i came up with this on my own . edmund : why do you think i 'd do something so ... cassie : manipulative . you panicked when i did n't come to your room so you hit on this as a way to keep me close by . edmund : actually , that 's not the way it happened at all . although it would have been nice that you told me you were n't coming to my room . cassie : i left you a message . edmund : i never got a message . cassie : i did n't come by your room because i was n't ready yet . edmund : it 's all right , cassie . cassie : edmund ... edmund : it 's all right . i 'm sorry . i love you . i love you and i do n't want to pressure you anymore . cassie : if you love me , then i want you to tell me the truth . look at me and tell me the truth . did you set this up ? edmund : cassie , i brought dinah here unnecessarily . but it was because i overreacted and i was worried that there was something wrong with the baby . i 'm sure you can understand . cassie : yeah . i understand everything perfectly . marina : you saw danny kissing michelle ? tony : i did . a couple hours ago and i know how it happened . they got caught up in the past , it 's not real , but i will not sit around and wait for them to get back what they had . now , i may be setting myself up for a fall , i do n't care . but i will fight for her until the day i die . marina : and i will fight for danny , but in the end it all comes down to whether you trust the person you love . if you do n't , there is nothing worth fighting for . ( cell phone rings ) marina : hello ? danny : it 's danny . look , i 'm really sorry i wo n't be able to make the movie . this thing i need to take care of looks like it 's going to be most of the night . we still on for tomorrow if that 's okay with you ? marina : sounds good . are you okay ? danny : yeah , yeah , i 'm fine . i 'll call you in the morning . did you call tony ? michelle : no , i 'm going to wait until we get to vegas . if i talk to him now he 's going to want to come with us and i think it 's should something we should do ourselves . danny : we 'll be back before anyone flows we 're gone . michelle : so you nervous about flying since the whole incident on sebastian 's island ? danny : not until you mentioned it , thank you very much . michelle : i 'd be white knuckling it all the way to nevada if $ i were you . danny : no , wow you wouldn't . remember the trip we took to vancouver with the tray crazy turbulence . it did n't bother you one bit . michelle : that turned out to be a great trip , did n't it ? mallet : i 'll get back to you . problem ? harley : question . do opportunity parolee and the inmate files in separate sections ? mallet : yeah , if you think it will work . use your judgment . harley : okay . something else ? harley : yeah . sorry to keep bugging you , i 'm just still a little disoriented , that 's all . mallet : that 's understandable . harley : it 's weird enough to be yanked out of my life , taken away from all the people that i love , my family , forced to learn to live behind these walls , and then to top it all off , the ex- husband shows up . how did that happen , anyway ? mallet : it 's like i told you , i was assigned here . harley : really ? not according to this . you were n't just assigned here . you requested this position . so you answer one more question for me : did you put in for this job so that you could be close to me ? gus : you had every right to hate phillip 's guts . olivia : i did n't just hate him . i despised him . but not enough to pull the trigger myself . harley apparently did n't have a problem with which that , which makes her my hero . but anyway , it 's over , case is closed . gus : right . olivia : take care of that lip . ( phone beeps ) gus : `` the spaulding house is the right place to find what you 're looking for . `` csie : i think we should get you home and you need to rest . dinah : okay . um ... on the way home i want to make sure that we pick up a pint of chocolate mint ice cream and some pringles . i 'm into this sweet / salty thing . cassie : fine . dr. sedwick : good , you 're still here . i want to talk to you about these test results . cassie : wait a minute , you said everything was okay with the baby . dr. sedwick : with the baby , yes . but i 'm afraid there 's a problem with you , dinah . [ next_on ] harley : my ex - husband just happens to show up to run the prison where i 'm sent ? uh - uh . i am sorry . i do not believe this is a coincidence . mallet : then what do you call it ? cassie : i went for a ride with jeffrey . nothing happened . and i was n't running away . edmund : you did . and you ran not because you stopped loving me . you ran because you still do . | cassie arrives at the hospital and finds that dinah is perfectly fine . dinah secretly informs cassie that edmund set the whole thing up . cassie confronts him , and he apologizes . when they are about to leave the hospital , the doctor tells dinah that there is a problem with one of her tests . danny and michelle learn that their divorce judge has come down with a medical ailment . danny offers to fly to vegas with michelle for a quickie divorce , so she can get married the next day . they get on a plane together . tony tells marina that he saw danny kissing michelle . gus makes it seem as if he truly believes harley is guilty . he wants to get olivia 's perspective . frank overhears his words and punches him . gus gets a text message telling him to investigate the spaulding mansion . jeffrey threatens dinah , telling her that he will hurt her if she hurts cassie . | <s>[INST] cassie : can you please go faster ? can you go around this guy , jeffrey ? jeffrey : cassie , if i arrive any faster , you 'll arrive at the hospital but you 'll be the patient . do me a favor , call edmund back and see if he can make it more clear as to what exactly is wrong with dinah . cassie : his phone is off . they must already be at the hospital . why did i go out tonight ? why did i go out tonight jumping around in a bar with your band like i 'm a teenager ? jeffrey : you needed to do that . cassie : i was selfish and wrong and it was stupid . can you please hurry up , jeffrey ? my baby 's life could be at stake . dinah : i do n't mean to be a buzz kill but i do n't think this whole thing is going to work . edmund : it 's going to work . nothing is more important than cassie to her children . she 's going to be here , now lie down . dinah : hey , i 'm not a dog . i do want to help you but i 'm getting a little tired of this give , give , give . it 's got to be a two - way street , edmund . edmund : dinah , if you do in this for me , i will be in your corner 100 % . dinah : you know what ? i 'm going to hold you to that because i need you . i really need you to be on my side on this . the thing i need most now are good friends . that and immediate medical care because i am not feeling so well . in fact , i 'm feeling awful . tony : so , robbie asleep ? michelle : they went right out . of course , i 'm going to be up all night packing for this trip . tony : no , no . come here . look , i do n't care if you and i get up in the morning , get on a plane with nothing but a credit card and a toothbrush . we 're getting married , right ? we 're getting married . michelle : you 're so excited . it 's cute . it really is . tony : i am . what do you mean cute babe ? what 's that ? michelle : it 's incredible . i 'm really lucky to have you , you know that ?

olivia : i am now . no , i 'm not following you . gus : we did n't have a great talk , then i show up here and you show up here . olivia : you 're paranoid , you know that . not everything is a conspiracy . i 'm here because i 'm hungry . lighten up on the caffeine . you scared me . gus : you 're not wrong . i 've been on edge . olivia : it shows . gus : it 's not my plan to let my life go down the toilet . olivia : it happens when you lose the person you love . gus : yeah . olivia : you 've got to focus on something else , you know ? something else that matters to you . gus i wish i could but i do n't think there is anything . olivia : there is . there 's always something . i understand how devastated you were . you were so sure that harley was innocent . gus : i 'm not as sure as you think . mallet : go , bring her in . harley : i 'd rather spend a month in solitary than work in your office . mallet : you 've been assigned . harley : i should be on kitchen detail . lena : screw that . this is the cushiest job in the place go . for it . harley : now how many times do i have to say forget it ?

mallet : yes ? harley : one more question . tide or cheer ? edmund : where is cassie ? she should have been here by now . dinah : edmund , does this not bother a bit that you 're using this child to get her back . i know it 's kind of giving me the creeps . making me feel like i 'm tempting fate . edmund : of course it bothers me , dinah . if it brings cassie back , so be it . besides , it 's in the child 's best interest as well . dinah : how do you figure ? edmund : the most important thing for any child is to be raised by two people who love one another and want to be together . dinah : that would be wonderful , granted . cassie : hi . so what 's ... what 's happening ? has she seen dr . sedwick ? edmund : she 's on her way . cassie : okay . how are you feeling ? dinah : i ... edmund : her head hurts and she was having abdominal pain . i hope i did the right thing to have her checked out , cassie . cassie : you did the right thing . edmund : i did n't want to alarm you . i thought you 'd like to know . cassie : it 's fine , edmund . it 's okay . so you 're having abdominal pain . is it cramping , pressure , do you feel dizzy , dinah ? dinah : i think a little of all three . tony : all you 've got to do is pack your bags tonight , wake up in the morning and that 's it . i 've got everything else taken care of . really , i do . i 've even got a justice of the peace lined up who will marry us tomorrow night at sunset . michelle : wow . okay , you work really fast . tony : i am excited . i am . i ca n't wait to be your husband . i 'm sorry . michelle : so we 're going to have a wedding on the beach . tony : that 's right . michelle : at sunset ?

tony : all i want is you . i do n't care about anything else . okay , look , i 'm going to go and let you say good - bye to robbie and i 'll see you in a bit . get ready to pack your bags , we 're getting married . michelle : let me guess , you forgot to tell me that you love me . oh , danny , sorry . i thought that you were ... danny : tony . yeah , i figured . the . michelle : i 'm glad it 's you , though . i have something that i want to tell you . danny : okay . michelle : tony and i are going to elope tomorrow night . danny : no , you 're not . you can't . michelle : why ca n't tony and i get married ? danny : because i just got a call from the family court clerk and our judge was admitted to cedars to want for an emergency appendectomy . yeah . so family court is not going to be back in session until next week and you will not be marrying anyone tomorrow . michelle : okay . danny : it 's one of those things , michelle , what can we do ? michelle : yeah . yeah . danny : look , i 'm sorry if it screws up your plans . michelle : well , tony wo n't be very happy . danny : well , you can get married next week when the divorce is finalized and court 's back in session . michelle : right . right . danny : i 'm sorry . i am . i 'm really sorry if this gets in the way of you getting what you want . i mean , obviously i should not have postponed the hearing last week if i had just left it alone then you 'd be free right now . michelle : and is that what you want , danny ? do you want me to be free ? olivia : wow . so you think harley filled philip ? gus : i used to think it was impossible but then towards the end of the trial ... olivia : just that it 's quite a change in outlook . gus : i know everybody who 's accused of a crime defenses a good defense . but i turned myself inside out for that girl . i manufactured a witness and i risked tampering , disbarment , you name it just to keep her out of prison and look for the thanks i get . olivia : she sleeps with my husband . gus : i love her . i should always love her . but i should do what you said , focus on moving forward but it 's difficult after what she did to me . olivia : and to phillip , too , right ? gus : women , they 're hard to trust . olivia : try being one . gus : maybe that 's my problem . i should never have trusted her , ever . frank : you bastard ! harley : god . the mallet was right , that drying room could double as a sauna . lena : god knows i tried to warn you , did n't any . harley : thank you for reminding me . lena : i never in all the history of this joint have ever heard anybody turning down a desk job for the drying room . lena : lena , there are all kinds of torture . lena : listen to me . there are windows in there . there 's a coffee machine . and the air is n't full of lint and steam . harley : what do you care what i do ? you would n't even talk to me when i got here . lena : because i need to get by in this place , too ? you got that ? you understand that . harley : meaning what ? lena : if you have an in with the big guy , that makes things smoother for me . i deserve a good ride here . i 've been here a long time . and if you 'd just take a pass on a job like this , it hurts me , you get that ? it 's like a slap in the face and nobody likes it . i 've got to tell you , you think the drying room is hot , honey ? oh , boy , just wait until july and august . guard : is there a problem here ? harley : yes . would you tell warden i 'm unhappy with my work detail and i 'll take his ... the transfer to his office , please ? i help you ; you help me , right ? lena : right . that is how it works . good . good . jeffrey : you made the whole thing up , did n't you ? edmund : you do n't belong here . jeffrey : you would do anything to get cassie back . literally anything . edmund : i used to be very much like you , mr . o'neill : single , ambitious with no responsifility to anything or anyone except myself and my own needs . but i 'm about to be a father . and you do n't know what that means . it changes one 's priorities . jeffrey : we 'll see how much it 's changed , wo n't we ? edmund : i 'm going to get coffee . be gone when i get back . cassie : is the baby okay ? dr. sedwick : the baby 's perfectly fine . cassie : thank god . dinah : what about the mom ? dr. sedwick : i think that you 've been under quite a bit of stress lately , dinah . you 've just got to relax more . cassie : is that it ? that 's it for now . i 'm waiting for some lab tests to come back . you can go ahead and get dressed . cassie : thank you . thanks , dr . sedwick . dinah : well , i 'm sorry that i had to make you rush for nothing . cassie : no . no , i 'm glad you did and i 'm really glad that you 're okay . i am . dinah : me , too . cassie : i think it 's great that you came here . dinah : i do n't want anything to happen to this baby , okay ? cassie : i know . and you did the right thing . i 'm going to let you get dressed . dinah : cassie , wait . i ca n't do this . make you worry for no reason . cassie : but there 's nothing to worry about . dr. sedwick says everything is fine . dinah : there never was because there was n't a problem tonight . edmund made me fake it . coming up on `` guiding light `` ... frank : you go ahead and walk away . i will find who killed phillip . gus : you can ask me right now . she 's in a cell and her name is harley cooper . harley : why do you want me to work here ? and do n't give me that crap about me being reliable . you have no idea who i am anymore . mallet : i remember who you used to be . dinah : edmund wanted to get you back so desperately he made this all up . cassie : i do n't believe this . dinah ... dinah : you ca n't tell him i told you . cassie : get out of the way . dinah : if you go out there and go off on edmund , he 's going to know i told you . imagine the tension that would cause between the three of us . look , it 's not worth it . besides , edmund meant well in his own way . cassie : really ? dinah : he did it because he loves you . it 's a little icky to use a baby as a tool to get you back , but we both know that edmund is extreme at times . cassie : why are you telling me this ? dinah : i have lost two babies myself and i would n't want you to go through that kind of fear again . cassie : thank you . dinah : so we 'll keep this between us ? cassie : finish getting dressed . where 's edmund ? jeffrey : he went to get a coffee . how 's the baby ? cassie : fine . fine . jeffrey : all right . listen , i think i 'll go then unless you need me for something else . cassie : no , i 'm okay . thank you . thank you for tonight . i really had fun . jeffrey : okay . see you later . cassie : bye . edmund : hey , there you are . what did the doctor say ? is it serious ? cassie ? cassie , come on , you have to tell me . cassie : the baby 's fine . edmund : oh , thank god . thank god , i was so worried there was something wrong with our baby . gus : let go of me , frank . frank : stop trashing my sister . gus : i believe facts . i 'm a cop at the end of the day . get off me ! frank : i believe in harley . gus : stop dreaming . olivia : he has a point . frank : do me a favor , stay out of this . gus : think what you want to think , frank , i 'm done . i 'm walking away . she put a lot of effort into pushing me away , that 's it . i 'm out , okay ? frank : that 's fine by me . you walk away but i will find who killed phillip . gus : you can ask me , she 's in a cell at vailsburg and her name is harley cooper . frank : is she really ? mallet : and these are the intake files i want arranged chronologically instead of alphabetically . it will speed up processing . harley : fine . mallet : any questions ? harley : yeah . why do you want me to work here ? and do n't give me that crap about me being reliable . you have no idea who i am anymore . mallet : i remember who you used to be . i mean , you know , you always had super neat handwriting , you were always great with details and people like that are in short supply in this place . harley : i 'll bet . mallet : the you 're not buying anything i 'm telling you , how come you 're not still in the basement slinging cheer ? harley : let 's just say i rethought my position . mallet : hey , does your dad still have that bike ? harley : my dad ? yeah , he still has it . mallet : and how are frank and eleni ? harley : divorced . actually , eleni lives in california . mallet : wow , with marina ?

harley : zach and jude . they 're sweet . i think they 're smart . and cute , obviously . and everyday i wonder how that happened . mallet : wow . that 's so weird that you have these kids that i do n't even know . harley : i know . no , it 's not weird . you were n't around , remember ? let 's just bag this little chat . mallet : come on , harley . it 's just ... harley : i do n't want to think about my life out there . i do n't want to be reminded of what it used to be or how is it now . i just want to do my job and do my time , okay ? do n't you have work that you have to do , warden ? danny : michelle , i want you to be happy . that 's all i ever wanted . that has never changed . michelle : yeah , well , marrying tony would change things , you know . danny : that 's true . hey , you deserve whatever you want . fit 's tony , then it 's tony . michelle : you know , tony is a really good guy . danny : must be that santos charm . michelle : and he makes me happy . danny : then marry him , michelle . marry him . look , i 'm really sorry that i kissed you before . michelle : you are ? danny : uh - huh . yeah . obviously it was n't fair to any of us : you , me , tony , marina . not when things are going to change . michelle : yeah , well i guess we should just consider it a good - bye kiss , then , right ? dinah : well , you 're too late . i 'm already dressed . jeffrey : what happened here tonight , dinah ? dinah : actually , the baby got a good clean bill of health . i 'm very relieved . jeffrey : well , that 's the press release . now how about the real stories ? as a matter of fact , why do n't you back it up as to how you got pregnant in the first place and why ? dinah : because i finally found something i 'm good at , something that i can do good with . jeffrey : that 's a nice sound bite but somehow the idea of dinah marler carrying cassie winslow 's child does n't quite strike me as the kind selfless act that you make it out to be . dinah : i must have an ulterior dark motive , is that it ? jeffrey : yeah that 's it . dinah : why is it so hard for you to believe that i 've turned a coroner my life ? jeffrey : because i know you , dinah . and i know for a fact you do n't want cassie and edmund together so why would you carry their child ? dinah : you must have a theory . why do n't you run it by me . jeffrey : you know what you did was illegal , right ? dinah : edmund and i have a signed agreement . jeffrey : you did n't inform cassie . dinah : we tried to reach her , but she was unavailable . jeffrey : oh , here we go . well , you 've got a comeback for everything . dinah : it 's called the truth . jeffrey : here 's the truth . if you hurt cassie in any way , shape or form i will make your life more hellish than the most difficult delivery ever . dinah : you do n't have to worry about me . edmund : tonight 's been a wakeup call for me , cassie . cassie : yeah , for me , too . edmund : i just ca n't take for granted that our baby is going to be fine for the next eight months . cassie : yeah . you never know what issues might pop up . edmund : exactly . that 's why it 's so critical for us to be there for the baby . together . it really is our solemn duty . cassie , if you think about it , it 's why i 'm sorry , i just ca n't sign the separation papers . cassie : yeah . the baby needs the best of both of us , right ? edmund : exactly . and that 's us together . i 'm glad you understand that . so i 'll keep you abreast of my schedule and i hope you 'll do the same for me . the closer we keep tabs on one another , the better , i think . for baby , anyway . cassie : stop it . edmund : sorry ? cassie : stop it . how could you do this to me ? danny : you 're still here ? michelle : yup . yeah , i was just sitting here thinking . is robbie awake ? danny : no . no . he 's out cold . he 's starting to sleep now the way you do : with his left arm sticking straight out . michelle : that 's my boy . danny : so what were you thinking about ? michelle : just how i 'm going to break it to tony that we 're not going to get married tomorrow night . danny : well , michelle , you do n't have to break it to him . not if you can get married . michelle : i thought you said the judge ... danny : i know , it 's postponed until next week , but there could be a way around it . michelle : oh , yeah ? how ? danny : well , if you really want to marry tony tomorrow , you and i can hop on a plane to vegas , get a quickie divorce , you can be back by first thing tomorrow so you can marry tony . michelle : that is crazy ! danny : but efficient . michelle : i would never make you go through all that trouble . danny : it 's not trouble . and , look , to be honest i would rather get this over with myself ... rind ianawr w ysveomn . we 're due . michelle : okay . yeah . great then . danny : so , is that what we want to do ? do a divorce vegas style ? it would be an adventure . michelle : great . let 's do it . tony : hey , marina . hi , this is tony santos and i am checking in tomorrow . i need a favor . i need a bottle of champagne on ice in my bedroom , a lot of chocolate because she ... well , she loves chocolate . can you do that for me ? all right . you 're the man . thank you . marina : chocolate and champagne ? count me . tony : ( laughs ) maybe next time there , scooter . this time around it 's me and michelle on the beach in sunny hawaii . marina : but is n't tomorrow ... tony : it 's the hearing but tomorrow it 's final we 're eloping , getting this over with . marina : whoa , drastic . tony : romantic would be the word . remember , i told you that i would do anything to hang on to michelle , did n't i ? well , this is it . marina : well , there 's no rush danny and michelle are getting their divorce , okay ? they 're done . tony : well , i 'll tell you what , marina , you believe that , okay . marina : i believe in danny . tony : you do , huh ? then you ask him why he was kissing michelle tonight . olivia : frank does n't understand how hard you fought for harley . gus : i do n't blame him . he loves his sister . olivia : so do you . gus : i do n't blame harley , either , for killing phillip . olivia : well , it 's a dirty job , but somebody had to do it . gus : phillip did a lot of horrible things to people . i ... it 's like he would n't give up , you know ? he just kept asking for it and asking for it . olivia : you think ? gus : i that what we should do is what you said . all this misery that he created and left us all in , we should get past it , we should move on . olivia : yeah , it 's a fat chance . gus : you said it . you said we should ... olivia : i know what i said . it 's a good idea in theory but it just shows you how malignant phillip was . he 's been dead for so many months and everybody who had contact with him is still down in this muck he left behind . gus : it 's good that you 're not bitter . olivia : you can joke all you want but your life is n't exactly humming along , is it ? gus : you think that was phillip 's fault ? olivia : it 's all phillip 's fault . do n't you understand ? he set all of this in motion , even harley and bill , this fling or whatever it was that they had . they would never have been together except they tried to bring down phillip . it 's like it 's his parting gift from the grave , you know ? if he were alive he would be laughing his head off . but he 's not . he 's dead and he deserves to be dead . i 'm sorry it did n't happen sooner . harley : ( sighs ) well , well , well . once a liar , always a liar . cassie : this was a setup . edmund : what ? cassie : there 's nothing wrong with dinah . she does n't have a hang nail , much less a headache or any abdominal pain . edmund : cassie , how could you think that ? cassie : you knew a good scare about the baby would bring me to the hospital where you 'd be . edmund : cassie , what has dinah been saying ? cassie : dinah did n't say anything to me , edmund , except how relieved she is that the baby is fine . i came up with this on my own . edmund : why do you think i 'd do something so ... cassie : manipulative . you panicked when i did n't come to your room so you hit on this as a way to keep me close by . edmund : actually , that 's not the way it happened at all . although it would have been nice that you told me you were n't coming to my room . cassie : i left you a message . edmund : i never got a message . cassie : i did n't come by your room because i was n't ready yet . edmund : it 's all right , cassie . cassie : edmund ... edmund : it 's all right . i 'm sorry . i love you . i love you and i do n't want to pressure you anymore . cassie : if you love me , then i want you to tell me the truth . look at me and tell me the truth . did you set this up ? edmund : cassie , i brought dinah here unnecessarily . but it was because i overreacted and i was worried that there was something wrong with the baby . i 'm sure you can understand . cassie : yeah . i understand everything perfectly . marina : you saw danny kissing michelle ? tony : i did . a couple hours ago and i know how it happened . they got caught up in the past , it 's not real , but i will not sit around and wait for them to get back what they had . now , i may be setting myself up for a fall , i do n't care . but i will fight for her until the day i die . marina : and i will fight for danny , but in the end it all comes down to whether you trust the person you love . if you do n't , there is nothing worth fighting for . ( cell phone rings ) marina : hello ? danny : it 's danny . look , i 'm really sorry i wo n't be able to make the movie . this thing i need to take care of looks like it 's going to be most of the night . we still on for tomorrow if that 's okay with you ? marina : sounds good . are you okay ? danny : yeah , yeah , i 'm fine . i 'll call you in the morning . did you call tony ? michelle : no , i 'm going to wait until we get to vegas . if i talk to him now he 's going to want to come with us and i think it 's should something we should do ourselves . danny : we 'll be back before anyone flows we 're gone . michelle : so you nervous about flying since the whole incident on sebastian 's island ? danny : not until you mentioned it , thank you very much . michelle : i 'd be white knuckling it all the way to nevada if $ i were you . danny : no , wow you wouldn't . remember the trip we took to vancouver with the tray crazy turbulence . it did n't bother you one bit . michelle : that turned out to be a great trip , did n't it ? mallet : i 'll get back to you . problem ? harley : question . do opportunity parolee and the inmate files in separate sections ? mallet : yeah , if you think it will work . use your judgment . harley : okay . something else ? harley : yeah . sorry to keep bugging you , i 'm just still a little disoriented , that 's all . mallet : that 's understandable . harley : it 's weird enough to be yanked out of my life , taken away from all the people that i love , my family , forced to learn to live behind these walls , and then to top it all off , the ex- husband shows up . how did that happen , anyway ? mallet : it 's like i told you , i was assigned here . harley : really ? not according to this . you were n't just assigned here . you requested this position . so you answer one more question for me : did you put in for this job so that you could be close to me ? gus : you had every right to hate phillip 's guts . olivia : i did n't just hate him . i despised him . but not enough to pull the trigger myself . harley apparently did n't have a problem with which that , which makes her my hero . but anyway , it 's over , case is closed . gus : right . olivia : take care of that lip .

brooke : how 's my nephew ? katie : he is great . he 's spending the day with bill , which makes him very happy . brooke : bill 's a good dad . katie : he is . he 's been incredible lately . brooke : just to will ? katie : subtle . it 's really subtle . brooke : well , i 'm curious how you and bill are getting along . katie : we are , um , fine . we 're friendly . brooke : fine . friendly . katie : mm - hmm . yep . brooke : oh , katie . you know how i feel . i really think you should give bill another chance . i think that he 's changed . katie : well , i 'd like to believe that , too . the question is -- can he be trusted ? bill : well , so far , you have n't given me any incentive . i raise your allowance in return for what ? will : no , that 's not how it works . i 've already earned the bump . bill : oh , really ? you think so ? will : i deserve the raised based on having earned it . you do n't need incentive . i earned the raise based on doing a good job . bill : excellent . never accept a run - around . and you 're right . you have been doing a pretty good job on your chores , so ... a raise it is . will : yes ! bill : [ chuckles ] and a dance , too ! are you ready for your sleepover ? will : pretty much , but i thought i 'd hang out with you a while longer . bill : i like the sound of that . come here . we do n't even have to negotiate it . [ chuckles ] shauna : i still ca n't believe this is really happening . quinn : eric and i are so excited to have you stay with us . and it 's a little selfish on my part because i get to have my best friend stay under my roof ! shauna : oh , wait until we tell flo ! she should be here any minute . although , she 's not super - excited about leaving wyatt , according to her text . quinn : [ gasps ] they were together ? shauna : apparently . quinn : oh , nothing would make me happier if those two got back together . shauna : i know . me , too . quinn : [ giggles ] [ knocks on door ] it 's open ! flo : wow ! quinn ... oh , my god , your house is amazing . quinn : oh , i 'm glad you think so . [ giggles ] shauna : you 're never gon na believe this . flo : is everything okay ? you said it was important . shauna : oh , everything 's way more than okay . quinn : mm - hmm . shauna : are you ready ? we 're moving out of that dreary apartment . flo : what are you talking about ? shauna : you and i are gon na be living here at the forrester estate . quinn : [ giggles ] justin : thank you for the loan . bill : you 're welcome . justin : [ chuckles ] bill : and that ought to tell you something . i do n't let just anybody drive the ferrari , do i ? justin : yeah , yeah . i know , i know , and i appreciate it . it made quite the impression on emma . bill : yeah ? how was the birthday ? justin : oh , man , it was great . got me all nostalgic . wow , they grow up fast . bill : [ chuckles ] tell me about it . justin : [ chuckles ] you know what , man , let me get out of here . i 'm interrupting father - son time . will : it 's okay . i got a sleepover tonight . justin : oh ! will : you can keep dad company . bill : well , that 's not a bad idea . why do n't we hang out ? we can have a drink or two . justin : that sounds good . yeah . bill : nice . hey , uh , go finish getting packed for your sleepover . brady and his mom are gon na be here any second . will : okay . justin : [ chuckles ] bill : what a kid , huh ? justin : yeah . bill : i still ca n't believe i made something that good . justin : well , you did have help . speaking of katie , how is progress on that front ? bill : uh , you mean since she turned me down flat on my marriage proposal ? justin : yeah , but be patient , all right ? give katie the time she needs and do n't give up on working on getting your family back together . katie : i just ca n't stop thinking about bill and shauna at il giardino . i mean , i went there because i was thinking about reconsidering his proposal ... brooke : and you said you saw them at the bar together . katie : and they seemed close . i mean , she 's a beautiful woman . brooke : there 's lots of beautiful women in l.a . katie : i know , you 're proving my point . brooke : the beautiful woman that bill proposed to and wants to spend the rest of his life with is you . katie : still ... bill and shauna have a past . so before i even consider a future with bill , she and i need to talk . shauna : look at her , as blown away as i was . quinn : nobody is more excited than i am , and even though this is all my idea , eric is totally on board . shauna : yeah , he 's actually the one that extended the invitation . quinn : i do n't want you to go back to vegas and disappear from my life again . i -- you do want to stay in l.a. , do n't you ? flo : yeah , sure , i mean , i really like it here , and a lot of great things have happened since i 've been here , but ... i just -- i don't ... shauna : that 's my daughter , doing what she does , overthinking . quinn : mm . shauna : don't . just thank quinn for her generous invitation and say yes ! quinn : you will stay , wo n't you ? ( dana ) it 's very difficult for the family bill : you know what i miss most about being with katie ? justin : what ? bill : the little things . you know , giving her a little nudge on her waist to move her out of the way when we we were maneuvering through the kitchen , rubbing her feet at the end of a long day , sharing drinks together , rehashing what happened that day , putting will to bed , stuff like that . justin : i thought i would never hear you pay homage to domestic bliss . bill : well , that 's the thing , justin . it was bliss . i just did n't know it . i mean , i pontificate about the importance of family , and what did i do ? i treated mine with disrespect and contempt . well , that will never happen again , i promise you that . justin : you know , i believe you . bill : would n't blame you if you didn't . katie , either . justin : just let time do its thing . eventually , she 'll see the difference in you just as i do . bill : patience is n't exactly one of my best virtues . you know that as well as anybody . but katie deserves to put me through my paces . no doubt about it . and i have to earn her trust . she has to see that i 've changed . i just wish i could figure out how to make her believe it . brooke : what does shauna have to do with your decision to go back to bill ? katie : well , she 's one of us now , at least by extension , being flo 's mother ... brooke : so , what are you getting at ? katie : bill seemed serious about wanting to put our family back together . brooke : but maybe you 're not feeling the same thing ? katie : well , it does n't really matter if i am or if i 'm not because i have to be smart about this . whatever decision i make , it does n't just affect me . it affects our son . positively or negatively . i ca n't even consider any kind of reconciliation if there 's any doubt in my mind . brooke : i think that 's smart . but where does shauna fit in ? katie : shauna seems very excited about flo 's new position in the family , and she always seems very eager to please . so i 'm hoping that she can help me with my situation with bill . shauna : say yes , baby . quinn : please do ! the two of us both want you here so much . flo : are you sure eric really does n't mind ? quinn : okay , my husband is about two things -- family and whatever makes me happy . flo : [ laughs ] that is really so kind of you both , to open up your house to us ... quinn : well , look , i love you both so much . it 's been so fantastic having you here in l.a. , and i want you close to me . i want you close to wyatt . you know , nothing would make me happier than ... the two of you getting back together . shauna : mm . flo : actually , he , um ... he asked me out . apparently , he and sally are n't doing so well , and she moved out . quinn : oh ! i heard . shauna : oh ! hmm , permanently ? flo : i do n't know , i -- i guess so , but , um , he wants to go out on a date so that we can , i do n't know , see how things could be between us . quinn : [ squeals ] that 's my boy . shauna : oh , baby , that 's wonderful . quinn : look , and , hopefully , it is just the start . i want you and wyatt to find love again . i want you both to experience the kind of life that i 've been living here in l.a. [ sighs ] i ca n't even tell you how my life has changed since i became part of the forrester family . and you 're a logan now . you guys have worked so hard . you have struggled to make ends meet . you deserve a better life , and if i can be a part of that -- just -- just say that you 're gon na stay ! flo : yes . yes ! yes , yes . quinn : [ squeals ] oh , my gosh , it 's gon na be so much fun ! flo : thank you so much . quinn : oh , that 's so great . okay , i 'm gon na hire a moving company , i 'm gon na get you out of that apartment . flo : we do n't have that much , so ... quinn : well , that 's all the better because then you can move in right away . i 'm -- i 'm gon na go to the den . i 'm gon na go see if eric is off his conference call , and i 'm just gon na tell him the good news ! okay ! flo : thank you so much . shauna : so much !

[ chuckles ] [ cellphone chimes ] oh ! all right , they 're here . let 's go . i 'll walk you out , come on . will : bye , justin . justin : all right , see you later , little man . all right . oh , dollar dad . wow . brooke : would you like something ? shauna : oh , no thanks . i 'm good . you both have been so wonderful , the way you 've accepted flo into your family . katie : well , she 's storm 's daughter , so she 's precious to us . shauna : oh , well , that she is . she is a good kid . oh , before i forget , quinn and eric invited flo and me to stay at the forrester estate . brooke : oh ! wow . katie : yeah , did n't -- did n't quite see that coming . [ laughs ] shauna : that was quinn . she 's so sweet . considering how far we go back , and we used to be really close . she really wanted us to have a soft landing in l.a. with all the recent family developments . anyway , i thought you should know because i guess we 'll be neighbors . katie : great . i 'm happy for you . shauna : thank you . so , what did you want to see me about ? katie : um ... bill wants to put our family back together again . shauna : i think that 's wonderful . brooke : i keep telling her the same thing . katie : well , it could be wonderful , or not . bill and i have on this roller coaster ride a few times before , and there are reasons why it did n't work out . shauna : okay . what does that have to do with me ? katie : i saw you at il giardino with bill , and i 'm just wondering if there 's anything going on between the two of you . shauna : between bill and me ? [ scoffs ] no . not at all , i swear . i ran into him , he was having a few drinks . he was disappointed that you did n't accept his proposal , and so i sat down and had a drink with him , and we just reminisced , talked a little bit , but that was it , i swear . there is nothing between us . katie : well , if you are seeing him , it 's okay . i mean , i 'm not gon na get mad . he has permission to see whomever he chooses , but i -- i just do n't want to be blindsided by it later on . shauna : understood . katie : i just want to be able to trust you . shauna : you can , 100 % . katie : good , and i 'm -- i 'm also hoping that you can help me out with something . um , a favor ? shauna : sure . after how you treated flo and me , of course . katie : well , you may not feel that way after you hear what it is , and if you do n't want to do it , that 's fine . i wo n't hold it against you , but , um ... i 'm hoping you can help me out . we call it the mother standard of care . justin : yeah , will is an amazing kid . bill : [ chuckles ] yeah , i think so . justin : yeah , he 's not only hella smart , he 's got a good heart . perfect mix between you and katie . bill : yeah , you know , i love that kid so much , sometimes it actually hurts . justin : yeah , you did good there . bill : i ca n't take much of the credit . justin : mm . okay , look , do n't do the modest thing . it does n't , uh , look good on you , okay ? just accept the props . bill : all right . thank you . justin : yeah . you 're welcome . bill : [ chuckles ] justin : you know , i really hope things work out and you get your family back . bill : [ sighs ] i 'm willing to put in the time and the effort to get katie back again . i just want to know that i have a shot . justin : i know she did n't accept your marriage proposal , but , uh , i mean , she is being receptive to you , right ? bill : i think so . but it 's hard to tell with katie . i mean , she can be so guarded . justin : yeah , that 's probably because she 's protecting herself . bill : i understand that . i mean , i really do . and like i said , i 'm gon na walk the walk . i mean , i 'm the one who broke the faith . but just because i laid down my sword does n't mean that i 've been stripped of all my pride . so if katie ca n't get past the way i hurt her -- and if she ca n't , it ' my fault -- but i 'm gon na have to move on with my life . i just really hope it does n't come to that . shauna : what 's this about ? katie : i have issues with bill -- trust issues . brooke : katie has good reasoning for questioning bill in the past , but i think that he 's changed . katie : well , i really hope that he has , but , um , i 've been burned more than a few times . bill has lied , he 's been with other women , he left me . so i would be a fool not to be wary , and not just for myself . for my son , as well . i mean , will wants his family back together more than anything else in the world , but he 's also grown comfortable with our current situation , and i am not gon na disrupt his life and get his hopes up for something that 's not gon na last . shauna : mm - hmm . i totally get it . i just do n't know where i fit into this . brooke : yeah , i 'm curious about that myself . katie : will is at his dad 's tonight , but he 's going to a sleepover , so bill will be alone . you and bill have a history . even though it was in the past , i saw the two of you together , the easy way you interact . shauna : [ sighs ] nothing happened between us , i swear i 'm not lying . katie : no , no , no . i -- i believe you . i believe you , but it could have . you know , all the elements were there . i could see it . bill likes you . it was one of the things that caught my attention in the first place . bill says he wants a future with me , but for how long ?

[ laughs ] shauna : that was quinn . she 's so sweet . considering how far we go back , and we used to be really close . she really wanted us to have a soft landing in l.a. with all the recent family developments . anyway , i thought you should know because i guess we 'll be neighbors . katie : great . i 'm happy for you . shauna : thank you . so , what did you want to see me about ? katie : um ... bill wants to put our family back together again . shauna : i think that 's wonderful . brooke : i keep telling her the same thing . katie : well , it could be wonderful , or not . bill and i have on this roller coaster ride a few times before , and there are reasons why it did n't work out . shauna : okay . what does that have to do with me ? katie : i saw you at il giardino with bill , and i 'm just wondering if there 's anything going on between the two of you . shauna : between bill and me ? [ scoffs ] no . not at all , i swear . i ran into him , he was having a few drinks . he was disappointed that you did n't accept his proposal , and so i sat down and had a drink with him , and we just reminisced , talked a little bit , but that was it , i swear . there is nothing between us . katie : well , if you are seeing him , it 's okay . i mean , i 'm not gon na get mad . he has permission to see whomever he chooses , but i -- i just do n't want to be blindsided by it later on . shauna : understood . katie : i just want to be able to trust you . shauna : you can , 100 % . katie : good , and i 'm -- i 'm also hoping that you can help me out with something . um , a favor ? shauna : sure . after how you treated flo and me , of course . katie : well , you may not feel that way after you hear what it is , and if you do n't want to do it , that 's fine . i wo n't hold it against you , but , um ... i 'm hoping you can help me out . we call it the mother standard of care . justin : yeah , will is an amazing kid . bill : [ chuckles ] yeah , i think so . justin : yeah , he 's not only hella smart , he 's got a good heart . perfect mix between you and katie . bill : yeah , you know , i love that kid so much , sometimes it actually hurts . justin : yeah , you did good there . bill : i ca n't take much of the credit . justin : mm . okay , look , do n't do the modest thing . it does n't , uh , look good on you , okay ? just accept the props . bill : all right . thank you . justin : yeah . you 're welcome . bill : [ chuckles ] justin : you know , i really hope things work out and you get your family back . bill : [ sighs ] i 'm willing to put in the time and the effort to get katie back again . i just want to know that i have a shot . justin : i know she did n't accept your marriage proposal , but , uh , i mean , she is being receptive to you , right ? bill : i think so . but it 's hard to tell with katie . i mean , she can be so guarded . justin : yeah , that 's probably because she 's protecting herself . bill : i understand that . i mean , i really do . and like i said , i 'm gon na walk the walk . i mean , i 'm the one who broke the faith . but just because i laid down my sword does n't mean that i 've been stripped of all my pride . so if katie ca n't get past the way i hurt her -- and if she ca n't , it ' my fault -- but i 'm gon na have to move on with my life . i just really hope it does n't come to that . shauna : what 's this about ? katie : i have issues with bill -- trust issues . brooke : katie has good reasoning for questioning bill in the past , but i think that he 's changed . katie : well , i really hope that he has , but , um , i 've been burned more than a few times . bill has lied , he 's been with other women , he left me . so i would be a fool not to be wary , and not just for myself . for my son , as well . i mean , will wants his family back together more than anything else in the world , but he 's also grown comfortable with our current situation , and i am not gon na disrupt his life and get his hopes up for something that 's not gon na last . shauna : mm - hmm . i totally get it . i just do n't know where i fit into this . brooke : yeah , i 'm curious about that myself . katie : will is at his dad 's tonight , but he 's going to a sleepover , so bill will be alone . you and bill have a history . even though it was in the past , i saw the two of you together , the easy way you interact . shauna : [ sighs ] nothing happened between us , i swear i 'm not lying . katie : no , no , no . i -- i believe you . i believe you , but it could have . you know , all the elements were there . i could see it . bill likes you . it was one of the things that caught my attention in the first place . bill says he wants a future with me , but for how long ? until he gets restless , until another woman comes along ? i need to be sure of his commitment . i am not gon na put my son through the agony of losing his family all over again . and i have a plan , but i need your help . shauna : what is it you want me to do ?
