[ janelle chuckles ] man : doctor -- doctor , it 's my son ! georgie ca n't breathe ! janelle : here , let 's set him on the table . david : right here . lay him down . man : it 's his heart . he has a heart condition . janelle : well , he has a pacemaker ? man : yes , yeah , a pacemaker in his chest , but it 's not working ! i tried to check it over the phone . that 's how we do it . but it did n't work ! janelle : it 's ok . it 's ok . we 'll take care of him . this is going to be cold , georgie . how are you feeling ? edmund : hi . wow . you 're beautiful . come in . mia : thank you . yes , well , it 's a lot easier to dress for a date when it does n't involve horses . edmund : yeah . well , listen , i have some bad news about tonight . mia : oh , god . what ? it does involve horses ? edmund : no , no , no , it does n't . i -- i tried to call you . i 'm going to have to cancel our date . because maddie -- maddie 's sitter called , and they were at a party , and all of a sudden , she started not feeling very well . mia : oh . edmund : yeah . mia : oh , ok . i 'm so sorry . well , do n't give it another thought . is she ok ?

i want your money now ! maddie : what 's he doing , joni ? does he have a gun ? joni : no , it 's ok . it 's ok , ok ? we 're going to be home in a minute . luis : yeah , as soon as you empty your frigging pockets ! or you want me to do that for you ? reggie : will you stop ? cool down . it 's all right ! it 's ok . that 's enough joking around . that 's enough playing around . i hope you guys learned your lesson , walking around the park in the middle of the night . it was n't too smart . you could have ran into some real trouble . maddie : it was a joke ? reggie : yes , it was just a joke , little girl . it was just a joke . what ? oh , you guys was n't scared , were you ? oh . joni : you scared us both half to death , you stupid jerk ! come on , maddie ; let 's go home to daddy . luis : you dissing me in front of people now ? you make yourself look good by making me look bad ? reggie : yo , look , that was the wrong girl to mug . you understand me ? luis : understand this . it 's going to cost you . erica : jackson , you did n't tell me that you were expecting chris . chris , have you been looking for me ? because i meant to call you and tell you that i was coming to see jack . but then i just -- i just completely chris : erica . you know why i 'm here , just like i know why you 're here . erica : well , you -- you could n't know why i 'm here ; because i only decided after we spoke . chris : and here i was thinking you were sleeping with michael cambias , and all along you were fooling around with my good friend jackson . luis : what is wrong with you ? reggie : no , man . what is wrong with you ? that girl goes to my school . look , she goes to my school , all right ? she will go to the cops , and if the cops link the both of us together -- luis : oh , yeah , yeah . reggie : look , the d.a . -- it does n't take much for him to figure out it was you who robbed trey 's crib . luis : well , that 's only going to happen if you start shooting off at your mouth . reggie : i 'm not like that , all right ? luis : huh ? reggie : look , i 'm just saying , do n't you got , like -- like , some relatives or something in , like , san juan that you could -- it might be time for a vacation or something . luis : oh , so you got all the answers now . reggie : no . i 'm just saying it might be smart for you to leave . luis : oh , so you 're smart . since when you get smart ? since you started living with the d.a . reggie , do n't you know the minute he can figure out how , he 's going to have you back in that group home . reggie : oh , no . but not like luis , right ? he going to be sharing some cell with a fat bubba , right ? luis : no , no . see , i know you ai n't saying that . reggie : no , no , no , no , no . i was just joking . where 's your sense of humor at , man ? come on . luis : oh . oh , yeah . i 'll be laughing . erica : chris , you ca n't be serious , barging in here , making this kind of accusation ? chris , i came here to ask jack for a favor . chris : a favor ? erica : yes . chris : i 'm guessing the favor is mutual . erica : chris , i asked jack to help me , to help us get rid of michael cambias , who is trying to come between us , just as you said . he 's been trying to sew these seeds of doubt in your mind , and i 'd hoped that jack would be able to do something legally -- chris : erica , stop it . you 're embarrassing yourself . i caught you . now , just have the guts to admit it . erica : jack ? jack : it 's time to tell chris the truth . mia : poor maddie . except i know from watching colby that whenever she gets a tummy ache , she really makes out like a little bandit . edmund : i think it 's the same way in this house . mia : yeah . edmund : cheers . mia : cheers . you should see the remedies that liza comes up with -- oh -- and even the great adam chandler , practically standing on his head to take her pain away -- and i mean literally standing on his head . edmund : really ? mia : hmm . but , you know , i came up with the quickest remedy . edmund : which is what ? mia : well , i opened aunt mia 's beauty salon and put rollers in her hair . the bigger the rollers , the quicker the tummy ache vanishes . edmund : that really works ? mia : oh , yeah . edmund : we 'll have to try that on maddie when she comes home . listen , i 'm sorry that tonight did n't work out -- maddie : daddy ! daddy ! daddy ! edmund : hi , sweetheart ! hi , baby ! what is it ? maddie : we were mugged . edmund : what ? joni : no , we were n't . actually , we just ran into a few guys from school . they just played a stupid joke on us . maddie : he said he had a gun , but he did n't . joni : i 'm sorry maddie got frightened . it 's just we were n't in actual , real danger . edmund : are you ok now ? maddie : yeah , except for my tummy ache . edmund : ok . i 'll tell you what , sweetheart . why do n't you just put on your p.j.s and then i 'll make it all better for you , ok ? maddie : ok . edmund : ok . mia : oh , do you think that she might like some ginger ale , some crackers for her tummy ? edmund : oh , mia , that would be great . thanks . kitchen . down the hallway , all the way just past the library , ok ? mia : ok . edmund : thanks . joni : i hope you 're not mad . we cut through the park because i thought we would get home quicker . edmund : no , i 'm not blaming you , joni . really , it 's ok . these pretend muggers -- they were n't friends of yours , were they ? joni : no , no . definitely not . [ doorbell rings ] edmund : excuse me . it 's the door . edmund : isabella . isabella : edmund . edmund : entrar . como estas ? isabella : mira , mira . sam left his computer games at the house again . mm - hmm , here . joni . hi . maddie told me you were going to a party ! joni : oh , we did , but maddie did n't feel well , so we kind of went home . edmund : it 's nothing . it 's just a tummy ache . she 's fine . isabella : ok . edmund : listen , joni , here you go . thank you . and my driver will take you home , ok ? joni : ok . good night . i 'll let myself out . edmund : ok . isabella : bye , joni . edmund : yeah , hi . isabella : hey . well , it 's a good thing i came . well , where 's my little one ? i 'm sure my chicken soup will make her tummy ache go away . mia : listen , i 'm really sorry . i think i took a wrong turn at the library . edmund : ok . all right . listen , you just -- you did n't go far enough . it 's down the hall , past the library , all the way down , way , way , way , on the right . mia : oh , gotcha . edmund : all right ? mia : ok , maddie 's ginger ale , coming right up . edmund : thanks . aidan : well , if i were involved in a special assignment or something , you know , i would n't be able to tell you about it . anna : i 've been thinking about you all day because i dreamt about lindsay last night . aidan : my mum ? anna : yeah . i know i 've been a blubbering mass of emotion lately , and that 's probably why , but it really did make me realize that i feel guilty for having neglected you . aidan : you have n't neglected me at all . and you 've just given birth . anna : you were accused for a crime you did n't commit , and i wish that i had been more available to you when you needed me . that 's all . aidan : well , you are here now , and to me , that means a lot . it really does . but , you know , my troubles and everything are behind me now , and for the first time in ages , things are -- things are really starting to go in my direction . anna : good . i 'm very happy for that . but i want you to know that you can count on me . i know leora is my whole life now , but i do still have a set of ears and what 's left of a brain , so if you need anything -- advice , whatever -- i 'll give you what i can , ok ? aidan : yeah . i 'll remember that . anna : ok . right . so i said what i came to say . i 'm going to go . maria : well , please , you know , come by anytime , really . anna : maybe i will more often now that leora 's getting stronger . maria : that 's good to hear . anna : yeah . maria : and how about david ? is he getting used to being a dad ? anna : oh , that 's a good question . i do n't really have an answer for that except i hope so . janelle : b.p . is 110/52 , breathing shallow , heartbeat 's irregular . man : i did n't think he could make it to the hospital . that 's why i brought him here . janelle : look , he 's going to be fine . we 're on it . man : i 'm just saying -- georgie : dad , chill , ok ? janelle : your son could n't be in better hands . dr. hayward is the best cardiologist at p.v.h . , and he 's right here . dr. hayward ? georgie : i feel dizzy . man : georgie , hang in there . janelle : david ? david : all right , look , let 's get him on an e.k.g . , ok ? hook him up to an i.v . it 's going to be ok , sir . we 're going to take good care of your son , ok ? mia : success . edmund : you found it . listen , isabella , this is my friend , mia . and , mia , this is maddie 's grandmother , isabella santos . mia : how do you do ? isabella : you fixed something for maddie . you really did n't need to . mia : oh , i know . i 'm an old hand at tummy aches . i have a niece who 's actually close to maddie 's age . isabella : well , i 'm here now , and i 'm sure maddie 's mother 's on her way . you called maria , did n't you ? edmund : no , isabella . isabella : no ? edmund : no . listen , i -- i 'm sure that maddie 's going to be fine and her tummy is going to be better in no time . isabella : well , even so , i 'm going to call her and let her know . edmund : no , isabella , do n't . isabella : you do n't want maria here , even though her child is sick ? mia : edmund , i think i probably had better go , after all . edmund : no . i 'd rather you stay . there 's really no problem . mia : no , i should go . i -- it 'll probably be best for maddie if her grandma and her daddy took care of her , and i 'll just talk to you later . edmund : ok . i 'll call you in the morning . mia : ok . sure . i 'll show myself out of the doors right over there , and i hope she feels better . it was very nice meeting you . edmund : what do you think you 're doing , isabella ? isabella : i could ask you the same thing . why was that woman here ? edmund : `` that woman `` ? isabella : mm - hmm . edmund : that woman happens to be my date for this evening . isabella : and you had your date taking care of your sick child while maria was a phone call away ? edmund : look , isabella , maria does n't want to be bothered every time maddie sneezes . isabella : you 're wrong . edmund : no , i 'm not wrong . isabella : you 're wrong about -- edmund : listen to me . i 've had this discussion with maddie . i did n't think i 'd have to have it with you . isabella , maria -- maureen -- she does n't remember being a mother or my wife and , more to the point , she does n't want to be . isabella : oh , edmund -- edmund : no . isabella : edmund , that 's not true . edmund : no , that is true . listen , she is moving on with her life , isabella , ok ? and so am i , and that means that sometimes we date other people . isabella : edmund , you have fought so hard , and for you to give up like this -- edmund : i 'm not giving up ! i 'm facing the truth . isabella : maria 's across town in a cheap motel room with a stranger . and just because she does n't remember loving you , that 's all right with you ? well , it 's not for me . i wo n't accept it , not now , not ever . edmund : isabella anna : well , i hope i did n't interrupt too much . aidan : no , no , no , not at all , but , hey , your offer of being a family goes two ways , and i want you to know that you can come to me if you need someone who will listen . anna : yeah . i 'll call next time , though , ok ? aidan : all right . david does n't -- he spends a lot of time in his own world and you ca n't always count on him . anna : maybe you should wait until you 're a father yourself before you say something like that about him . maria : you know , actually -- i think anna 's right . you know , we 're not walking in her shoes . we do n't know what the two of them have been through . aidan : anna , i did n't mean to dump or david or anything . i just want you to know that i do n't want you to feel alone . anna : i do n't feel alone . i have david , and he 's really trying to be a good father . and leora 's life could n't be in better hands . man : you feeling better ? georgie : yeah . i told you so . like always . janelle : you 've had this trouble before ? georgie : just a couple of times . janelle : how long have you had your pacemaker ? man : since he was 4 1/2 . before that , georgie went through a lot of operations . janelle : yeah , but he 's better since he 's had his pacemaker , right ? man : yeah . although -- yeah , he 's been a lot better . georgie : can i go home now ? usually , they just get it going and i take off . david : well , i 'm sorry to tell you this , georgie , but that 's not going to happen tonight . you better go to the hospital first . your heart is n't responding to the pacemaker charge , so we 're going to have to make sure it 's reset . man : well , if you say so , doc , but this never happened before . david : yes . it 's simple procedure , sir . i mean , they can get it done right away and you can be on your way . and you 'll be able to get home in time to do your homework . chris : so , jackson , are you -- are you at least willing to tell the truth ? erica : chris , it 's not what you think . you have to let me speak to you . i have to make you understand . jack : no , erica , no , no . no more lies . chris : i came to you . i asked you to help me . i trusted you , you son of a b -- erica : chris , please listen to me . chris : the two of you -- you make me sick . erica : jackson , would you please leave us alone ? please . chris : you need a minute or two to warm up ? no , no , no , no . you do n't need to practice . you 've got this routine down pat . erica : no , chris , please -- chris : you 're on , ms. kane . so just to keep things moving along , just spare me the part where your daddy walked out on you as a little girl , please . erica : look ; i know you have to hurt me now . i understand that . but please , just give me a chance to explain . after all we 've been through , have n't i earned that right ? nurse : ok , this is n't going to hurt . see ? it 's going to be all ok . david : thank you . hey . i just got off the phone with dr. heineman over at the hospital , and he 's going to take really good care of you . you 're going to be fine . georgie : sure , i am . the vice president has a pacemaker . you know . david : yes , that 's right . he does . you 're a brave kid , georgie . janelle : i will be back in just a minute . janelle : thanks for staying late . david : yeah , well , this is something that you could have handled on your own . frankly , i wish you had . janelle : i know what you 're thinking . david : do n't you always ? janelle : you are looking at the worst aspects of the situation . the fact is that that boy is alive because of his pacemaker . maria : so you seemed pretty happy that anna came by . aidan : yeah . i kind of forgot about that auntie anna that cares for me . maria : well , i know that you spent a lot of your life alone , but you 're not alone anymore . aidan : i know . and what do you say that we skip the dinner and go straight to the romance ? maria : oh , i love that idea . [ knock on door ] maria : oh , my god ! this is like a horrible joke with this door . ha ! isabella : i 'm sorry to interrupt . i can see that you 're busy . maria : isabella , what -- what is it ? isabella : i thought you should know . your daughter is sick . maria : she is ? what 's wrong with her ? isabella : edmund thinks it 's just a stomachache , but i 'm worried because i know when maddie gets a stomachache it 's because she 's upset or frightened . maria : well , edmund did n't call , so i 'm sure it 's not serious . isabella : how serious does it have to be for you to go to her ? maria : no , i just -- it 's not that . i just mean that i do n't feel like i can just go barging over to wildwind if edmund does n't at least give me a call . i do n't live there anymore . isabella : maria , you have responsibilities , and i ca n't help you pretend otherwise anymore . aidan : i 'm sorry . `` help `` ? `` help `` ? with all due respect , all you 've ever done is come around here and make maureen feel guilty . isabella : she does n't need me for that , and i 'm not even thinking about how you 're living . maria : oh , please . can we just -- can we not go through this right now ? please . isabella : i 'm thinking about your children . when i listen to maddie explain to me so calm and serious how mommy is n't mommy anymore and how it 's better for her if we call her maureen , well , no wonder she has a stomachache . children know , maria . maddie can tell her world is falling apart . maria : ok . look , you do n't have to talk me into going . i want to go . i did n't know she was sick . i 'm going to get my stuff and go talk to her . aidan : hey , sure . would you like me to go with you ? maria : no . i 'll be right back . i wo n't be very long . isabella : thank you , maria . you 're doing the right thing . maria : i want to go . see you . aidan : i 'm sorry . you 're not going with her ? isabella : uh - uh . the two of them need some time . and i want to talk to you . chris : god , you 've got nerve . you think you have a right to explain ? you think you 've earned that right ? erica : yes , of course i do . look , jack and i have known each other half our lives , and he 's bianca 's uncle . chris : and more like a brother to you ? erica : no , i was n't going to say that . chris : what more is there to say , erica ? you -- you slipped between the sheets with that guy when you were engaged to me . erica : but you have to know that it was n't an affair . it was not an affair . it was just the one time . i give you -- chris : no , no . you were n't going to say you were going to give me your word of honor , were you , because i do n't think i could be responsible for myself if those words slithered out of your mouth ! erica : i 'm telling you the truth . what happened was n't planned . chris : so what ? like that would make a difference ? erica : i never meant it to happen . neither one of us planned that to happen . jack 's daughter was very , very sick in the hospital , and she was expected to die . and i just -- i just wanted to just help him get through it somehow . chris : yeah , so you did the only thing you know how . you comforted him in the only way you know how . erica : i know you do n't mean that . no , this was my fault . i know that . and even though i did n't mean it , i know that i 've ruined everything that we had . chris : yeah , you did . erica : god , you 're such an incredible man . i really wanted it to work between us . i really did . i 'm so sorry , because i know that we could have been so happy together . i know that . i know that because of all the happiness that we 've already had . chris : how do you think you 're doing ? do you think it 's working ? i mean , you 're amazing . even now you 're playing me , erica . you think you can seduce me and i 'm going to sweep you up in my arms and then we 're going to go back home and i 'm going to make love to you all night long and everything 's going to be forgotten ? not this time . i see you now for who you really are , really . and i 've had it , and i 'm through . erica : chris , please . please , stop it . i swear . i mean what i 'm saying . i love you . i care about you . chris : no , no , no , erica . you -- you only care about what people are going to say , and i ca n't imagine why . because you 've been called every name in the book , and , you know , all of your beauty -- it 's all on the surface , and underneath , it 's only about what you want and how you care . and it 's like i finally get it . i get it now . and as much as it hurts , i have to laugh , because i can see you years from now trotting out the same routine to the boys in the nursing home , and , boy , is it going to be pathetic ! erica : stop it . that is horrible ! chris : you 're still going to be using sex , because you know -- you know no one is ever going to love you for yourself . never . david : hey . janelle : you 're still here . david : yeah , yeah . just keep in touch with dr. heineman , ok ? make sure the kid 's ok ? janelle : of course i will . david : great . janelle : you know , wait . i want to talk to you . david : no . i 'm already signed out . janelle : not about that . i want to know what you 're waiting for , david . leora 's dysrhythmia is not going to right itself . that window is closed . i mean , there 's not going to be another miracle in the o.r . david : do you honestly think that 's what i 'm waiting for ? so i can play god with my own little girl 's life ? janelle : no , i do n't . but i do think that you 're putting her life in danger by waiting to implant the pacemaker . david : all right . you made your opinion known . thank you . janelle : do n't . do n't walk away . look , i just want your opinion . if leora was any other child , not yours , would n't you recommend a pacemaker ? maria : hey . edmund : hi . maria : how 's maddie ? edmund : come in . maria : thanks . is she ok ? edmund : she will be . so isabella 's doing the medical news now ? maria : yeah , yeah . she came by , and -- and , boy , she knows how to push all the right buttons , does n't she ? maddie : mommy , you 're here ! maria : hi ! i am . how are you doing ? how you feeling ? maddie : i feel better already . maria : you do ? oh , my poor baby . janelle : as a doctor , david , what course of action would you take in leora 's case ? david : janelle , she is so weak , ok ? and helpless . her body has been through so much already . janelle : no , that 's a parent talking , hoping that the trouble will just go away , that it wo n't -- david : no , no , no . as a physician , i know that a pacemaker has a better chance of succeeding if the patient 's heart is bigger , if the patient is stronger , and if the immune system develops enough to ward off an infection or rejection . janelle : that 's valid . but if the heart is n't pumping properly , she 's just going to get weaker . her chances are going to decrease . david , how is she doing day to day ? david : i mean , sometimes , it seems like she 's a healthy , normal newborn . other times , it 's as if she 's not there , you know ? like we 're almost losing her . janelle : she 's not going to get better on her own . and that 's what you have to consider . anna : oh , hi . david , hi . david : hi . what are you doing here ? everything 's ok , right ? is leora all right ? anna : yeah , yeah , of course she is . she 's fine . hi , janelle . ah , yes , she 's home with the nurse , and she had such a good day today . i just wanted you to come home and see her . she 's been really rosy and alert , and i do think she 's getting stronger . what is it ? janelle : oh , nothing . the usual . we 're tired and overworked . david : no , that 's not true . some kid came in tonight and he had a pacemaker . janelle : i got to get back to work . you guys should just go home and enjoy that beautiful baby . anna : david , the little boy -- is he all right ? david : yeah , yeah . he 's going to be fine . look , why do n't we go home and talk about it , ok ? anna : yeah . david : ok . aidan : i know -- i know you do n't approve of me , but we both want the same thing for maureen . isabella : oh , i do n't think so . aidan : look , i want her to be happy . do n't you want her to be happy ? isabella : maria was happy , truly happy with her husband and children . now you 're taking her away from that . aidan : maureen does what she wishes to do . i 'm not keeping her from anything . now , i think you should leave . isabella : you 're taking advantage of her because she ca n't remember where she belongs . and you 're wrong if you think i 'm going to let you destroy our family . maria : i mean , you still feel a little bit warm , sweetheart . maddie : you could tell ?

jack : it 's time to tell chris the truth . mia : poor maddie . except i know from watching colby that whenever she gets a tummy ache , she really makes out like a little bandit . edmund : i think it 's the same way in this house . mia : yeah . edmund : cheers . mia : cheers . you should see the remedies that liza comes up with -- oh -- and even the great adam chandler , practically standing on his head to take her pain away -- and i mean literally standing on his head . edmund : really ? mia : hmm . but , you know , i came up with the quickest remedy . edmund : which is what ? mia : well , i opened aunt mia 's beauty salon and put rollers in her hair . the bigger the rollers , the quicker the tummy ache vanishes . edmund : that really works ? mia : oh , yeah . edmund : we 'll have to try that on maddie when she comes home . listen , i 'm sorry that tonight did n't work out -- maddie : daddy ! daddy ! daddy ! edmund : hi , sweetheart ! hi , baby ! what is it ?

anna : yeah . i know i 've been a blubbering mass of emotion lately , and that 's probably why , but it really did make me realize that i feel guilty for having neglected you . aidan : you have n't neglected me at all . and you 've just given birth . anna : you were accused for a crime you did n't commit , and i wish that i had been more available to you when you needed me . that 's all . aidan : well , you are here now , and to me , that means a lot . it really does . but , you know , my troubles and everything are behind me now , and for the first time in ages , things are -- things are really starting to go in my direction . anna : good . i 'm very happy for that . but i want you to know that you can count on me . i know leora is my whole life now , but i do still have a set of ears and what 's left of a brain , so if you need anything -- advice , whatever -- i 'll give you what i can , ok ? aidan : yeah . i 'll remember that . anna : ok . right . so i said what i came to say . i 'm going to go . maria : well , please , you know , come by anytime , really . anna : maybe i will more often now that leora 's getting stronger . maria : that 's good to hear . anna : yeah . maria : and how about david ? is he getting used to being a dad ? anna : oh , that 's a good question . i do n't really have an answer for that except i hope so . janelle : b.p . is 110/52 , breathing shallow , heartbeat 's irregular . man : i did n't think he could make it to the hospital . that 's why i brought him here . janelle : look , he 's going to be fine . we 're on it . man : i 'm just saying -- georgie : dad , chill , ok ? janelle : your son could n't be in better hands . dr. hayward is the best cardiologist at p.v.h . , and he 's right here . dr. hayward ? georgie : i feel dizzy . man : georgie , hang in there . janelle : david ?

isabella : you fixed something for maddie . you really did n't need to . mia : oh , i know . i 'm an old hand at tummy aches . i have a niece who 's actually close to maddie 's age . isabella : well , i 'm here now , and i 'm sure maddie 's mother 's on her way . you called maria , did n't you ? edmund : no , isabella . isabella : no ? edmund : no . listen , i -- i 'm sure that maddie 's going to be fine and her tummy is going to be better in no time . isabella : well , even so , i 'm going to call her and let her know . edmund : no , isabella , do n't . isabella : you do n't want maria here , even though her child is sick ? mia : edmund , i think i probably had better go , after all . edmund : no . i 'd rather you stay . there 's really no problem . mia : no , i should go . i -- it 'll probably be best for maddie if her grandma and her daddy took care of her , and i 'll just talk to you later . edmund : ok . i 'll call you in the morning . mia : ok . sure . i 'll show myself out of the doors right over there , and i hope she feels better . it was very nice meeting you . edmund : what do you think you 're doing , isabella ?

and so am i , and that means that sometimes we date other people . isabella : edmund , you have fought so hard , and for you to give up like this -- edmund : i 'm not giving up ! i 'm facing the truth . isabella : maria 's across town in a cheap motel room with a stranger . and just because she does n't remember loving you , that 's all right with you ? well , it 's not for me . i wo n't accept it , not now , not ever . edmund : isabella anna : well , i hope i did n't interrupt too much . aidan : no , no , no , not at all , but , hey , your offer of being a family goes two ways , and i want you to know that you can come to me if you need someone who will listen . anna : yeah . i 'll call next time , though , ok ? aidan : all right . david does n't -- he spends a lot of time in his own world and you ca n't always count on him . anna : maybe you should wait until you 're a father yourself before you say something like that about him . maria : you know , actually -- i think anna 's right . you know , we 're not walking in her shoes . we do n't know what the two of them have been through . aidan : anna , i did n't mean to dump or david or anything . i just want you to know that i do n't want you to feel alone . anna : i do n't feel alone . i have david , and he 's really trying to be a good father . and leora 's life could n't be in better hands . man : you feeling better ?

man : yeah . although -- yeah , he 's been a lot better . georgie : can i go home now ? usually , they just get it going and i take off . david : well , i 'm sorry to tell you this , georgie , but that 's not going to happen tonight . you better go to the hospital first . your heart is n't responding to the pacemaker charge , so we 're going to have to make sure it 's reset . man : well , if you say so , doc , but this never happened before . david : yes . it 's simple procedure , sir . i mean , they can get it done right away and you can be on your way . and you 'll be able to get home in time to do your homework . chris : so , jackson , are you -- are you at least willing to tell the truth ? erica : chris , it 's not what you think . you have to let me speak to you . i have to make you understand . jack : no , erica , no , no . no more lies . chris : i came to you . i asked you to help me . i trusted you , you son of a b -- erica : chris , please listen to me . chris : the two of you -- you make me sick . erica : jackson , would you please leave us alone ? please . chris : you need a minute or two to warm up ? no , no , no , no . you do n't need to practice . you 've got this routine down pat . erica : no , chris , please -- chris : you 're on , ms. kane . so just to keep things moving along , just spare me the part where your daddy walked out on you as a little girl , please . erica : look ; i know you have to hurt me now . i understand that . but please , just give me a chance to explain . after all we 've been through , have n't i earned that right ? nurse : ok , this is n't going to hurt . see ? it 's going to be all ok . david : thank you . hey . i just got off the phone with dr. heineman over at the hospital , and he 's going to take really good care of you . you 're going to be fine . georgie : sure , i am . the vice president has a pacemaker . you know . david : yes , that 's right . he does . you 're a brave kid , georgie . janelle : i will be back in just a minute . janelle : thanks for staying late . david : yeah , well , this is something that you could have handled on your own . frankly , i wish you had . janelle : i know what you 're thinking . david : do n't you always ? janelle : you are looking at the worst aspects of the situation . the fact is that that boy is alive because of his pacemaker . maria : so you seemed pretty happy that anna came by . aidan : yeah . i kind of forgot about that auntie anna that cares for me . maria : well , i know that you spent a lot of your life alone , but you 're not alone anymore . aidan : i know . and what do you say that we skip the dinner and go straight to the romance ?

what 's wrong with her ? isabella : edmund thinks it 's just a stomachache , but i 'm worried because i know when maddie gets a stomachache it 's because she 's upset or frightened . maria : well , edmund did n't call , so i 'm sure it 's not serious . isabella : how serious does it have to be for you to go to her ? maria : no , i just -- it 's not that . i just mean that i do n't feel like i can just go barging over to wildwind if edmund does n't at least give me a call . i do n't live there anymore . isabella : maria , you have responsibilities , and i ca n't help you pretend otherwise anymore . aidan : i 'm sorry . `` help `` ? `` help `` ? with all due respect , all you 've ever done is come around here and make maureen feel guilty . isabella : she does n't need me for that , and i 'm not even thinking about how you 're living . maria : oh , please . can we just -- can we not go through this right now ? please . isabella : i 'm thinking about your children . when i listen to maddie explain to me so calm and serious how mommy is n't mommy anymore and how it 's better for her if we call her maureen , well , no wonder she has a stomachache . children know , maria . maddie can tell her world is falling apart . maria : ok . look , you do n't have to talk me into going . i want to go . i did n't know she was sick . i 'm going to get my stuff and go talk to her . aidan : hey , sure . would you like me to go with you ? maria : no . i 'll be right back . i wo n't be very long . isabella : thank you , maria . you 're doing the right thing . maria : i want to go . see you . aidan : i 'm sorry . you 're not going with her ? isabella : uh - uh . the two of them need some time . and i want to talk to you . chris : god , you 've got nerve . you think you have a right to explain ? you think you 've earned that right ? erica : yes , of course i do . look , jack and i have known each other half our lives , and he 's bianca 's uncle . chris : and more like a brother to you ? erica : no , i was n't going to say that . chris : what more is there to say , erica ? you -- you slipped between the sheets with that guy when you were engaged to me . erica : but you have to know that it was n't an affair . it was not an affair . it was just the one time . i give you -- chris : no , no . you were n't going to say you were going to give me your word of honor , were you , because i do n't think i could be responsible for myself if those words slithered out of your mouth ! erica : i 'm telling you the truth . what happened was n't planned . chris : so what ? like that would make a difference ? erica : i never meant it to happen . neither one of us planned that to happen . jack 's daughter was very , very sick in the hospital , and she was expected to die . and i just -- i just wanted to just help him get through it somehow . chris : yeah , so you did the only thing you know how . you comforted him in the only way you know how . erica : i know you do n't mean that . no , this was my fault . i know that . and even though i did n't mean it , i know that i 've ruined everything that we had . chris : yeah , you did . erica : god , you 're such an incredible man . i really wanted it to work between us . i really did . i 'm so sorry , because i know that we could have been so happy together . i know that . i know that because of all the happiness that we 've already had . chris : how do you think you 're doing ? do you think it 's working ? i mean , you 're amazing . even now you 're playing me , erica . you think you can seduce me and i 'm going to sweep you up in my arms and then we 're going to go back home and i 'm going to make love to you all night long and everything 's going to be forgotten ? not this time . i see you now for who you really are , really . and i 've had it , and i 'm through . erica : chris , please . please , stop it . i swear . i mean what i 'm saying . i love you . i care about you . chris : no , no , no , erica . you -- you only care about what people are going to say , and i ca n't imagine why . because you 've been called every name in the book , and , you know , all of your beauty -- it 's all on the surface , and underneath , it 's only about what you want and how you care . and it 's like i finally get it . i get it now . and as much as it hurts , i have to laugh , because i can see you years from now trotting out the same routine to the boys in the nursing home , and , boy , is it going to be pathetic ! erica : stop it . that is horrible ! chris : you 're still going to be using sex , because you know -- you know no one is ever going to love you for yourself . never . david : hey . janelle : you 're still here . david : yeah , yeah . just keep in touch with dr. heineman , ok ? make sure the kid 's ok ? janelle : of course i will . david : great . janelle : you know , wait . i want to talk to you . david : no . i 'm already signed out . janelle : not about that . i want to know what you 're waiting for , david . leora 's dysrhythmia is not going to right itself . that window is closed . i mean , there 's not going to be another miracle in the o.r . david : do you honestly think that 's what i 'm waiting for ? so i can play god with my own little girl 's life ? janelle : no , i do n't . but i do think that you 're putting her life in danger by waiting to implant the pacemaker . david : all right . you made your opinion known . thank you . janelle : do n't . do n't walk away . look , i just want your opinion . if leora was any other child , not yours , would n't you recommend a pacemaker ?

david : janelle , she is so weak , ok ? and helpless . her body has been through so much already . janelle : no , that 's a parent talking , hoping that the trouble will just go away , that it wo n't -- david : no , no , no . as a physician , i know that a pacemaker has a better chance of succeeding if the patient 's heart is bigger , if the patient is stronger , and if the immune system develops enough to ward off an infection or rejection . janelle : that 's valid . but if the heart is n't pumping properly , she 's just going to get weaker . her chances are going to decrease . david , how is she doing day to day ? david : i mean , sometimes , it seems like she 's a healthy , normal newborn . other times , it 's as if she 's not there , you know ? like we 're almost losing her . janelle : she 's not going to get better on her own . and that 's what you have to consider . anna : oh , hi . david , hi . david : hi . what are you doing here ?

[ scene_break ] bo : stay on the radio , okay ? if blair made contact once , she could do it again . viki : bo , listen to me . blair was convinced that margaret cochran was the one responsible for todd 's disappearance , and she was out to prove it . bo : yeah , well , from what i can make out , margaret is holding todd in a cabin somewhere . viki : so he really has been her prisoner all this time ? bo : we 're going to do everything we can to find todd and blair , all right ? we 're going to bring them home . viki : i know , i know , but you got to find this margaret cochran , too . she 's very dangerous . she tried to kidnap starr , and she could very well be the one who killed mrs. bigelow , todd 's assistant . bo : and she might be the driver who hit marcie walsh . viki : what ? bo : the make of the car that we traced to margaret fits the description of the car that hit marcie . viki : so it 's more than likely that blair is in the trunk of that car somewhere ? bo : and we 're going to find it , viki . we just have to take it one step at a time . viki : look , i 'm going to call dorian . she needs to know what happened to blair , okay ?

[ scene_break ] dr. kahn : j.r. 's been prepped for the procedure . we should be ready to begin shortly . colby : so , what 's going to happen ? dr. kahn : a bone marrow transplant is similar to a blood infusion . it 'll be fed into j.r. 's central vein through an iv , and then it will migrate into the cavities in j.r. 's long bones that the chemos created . adam : how soon will we know if the transplant worked ? dr. kahn : the next few days are the most critical . j.r. 's been through an intense round of chemo and radiation to decimate the cancerous cells . so his immune system is weakened . once the donor 's marrow has been engrafted , hopefully , it 'll build back up again . i 'll keep you posted as things progress . scott : ok , well , at least now , j.r. has a fighting chance . marissa : god , i 'm almost too afraid to hope . what if the transplant does n't work ? krystal : ok , come on now . you 're not going to help yourself , or j.r. , by thinking that way . tad : yeah , krystal 's right . stay positive . j.r. is going to make it . colby : dad , do you think the donor is still in the hospital ? i -- i wanted -- adam : oh , the donor wishes to remain anonymous . we have to respect that . colby : dad , this person is about to save j.r.

's long bones that the chemos created . adam : how soon will we know if the transplant worked ? dr. kahn : the next few days are the most critical . j.r. 's been through an intense round of chemo and radiation to decimate the cancerous cells . so his immune system is weakened . once the donor 's marrow has been engrafted , hopefully , it 'll build back up again . i 'll keep you posted as things progress . scott : ok , well , at least now , j.r. has a fighting chance . marissa : god , i 'm almost too afraid to hope . what if the transplant does n't work ? krystal : ok , come on now . you 're not going to help yourself , or j.r. , by thinking that way . tad : yeah , krystal 's right . stay positive . j.r. is going to make it . colby : dad , do you think the donor is still in the hospital ? i -- i wanted -- adam : oh , the donor wishes to remain anonymous . we have to respect that . colby : dad , this person is about to save j.r.

'cause hilary would n't want to go or you do n't want her to ? jordan : let 's just say that we 've hit a few speed bumps . lily : like ? jordan : well , she 's jealous , for one . lily : of what ? jordan : what do you think ? or shall i say whom ? `` the young and the restless `` will continue . phyllis : good . you 're alone . jack : i did n't know you were back from your fenmore 's sightseeing tour . phyllis : fact finding . and i 'll fill you in on fenmore 's later . let 's discuss what 's really important . jack : oh , you mean our new supercouple ? maybe you have n't heard . as we speak , she is signing the papers for a bridge loan from the bank of hochman . phyllis : you 're late to the party , jack . that deal is dead . jack : wait , ben said it was a fait accompli . phyllis : yeah , until victoria discovered his under - the - table agreement with cane . jack : and now she 's thumbing her nose at his mountain of money . oh , wonderful . okay . we have to adjust our plan . any ideas ? phyllis : i 'm not so sure if you and i have a plan . you knew that cane was being pulled into this . you did n't even act surprised when i mentioned it just now . jack : so ? phyllis : so , you and cane share the same goal . you both are dying to bring billy down . consider me off the team . billy : so i assume the deal with hochman went well ? victoria : oh , you could say that , actually . billy : okay . he 's gon na loan you the money ? victoria : well , he was about to when i discovered his secret side deal with cane . billy : are you serious ? victoria : is it really any surprise that the man lives up to his sleazy reputation ? billy : so , what ? cane was just gon na sell our secrets to make some quick cash ? victoria : and benjamin was more than happy to pay for it as he slowly sucked the life out of our company . billy : my god , just when i think cane ca n't sink any lower . victoria : they 're a match made in hell . billy : look , i 'm really sorry that did n't work out with hochman . you need to know that he 's nowhere near your league . victoria : i know . thanks . if i never spend another minute thinking about that man , it would be too soon . i 'm just relieved that he did n't worm his way into our company . billy : yeah , me , too . but that does n't fix the cash - flow problem . victoria : no , it 's fixed . billy : what do you mean ? how ? when ? victoria : neil . he gave me the funding that we need to get over the hump . billy : that 's fantastic . i mean , i thought we were gon na have to get this thing fixed with a serious string attached . victoria : no , no strings attached . i mean , just one small one , but it 's not a problem . neil just wants to keep lily employed . billy : great . lily : typical hilary . she has an irrational envy of anything i do or have , including my friendship with you , which started way before she got here . jordan : [ sighs ] you ca n't call it a one - way feud , though . all i 'm saying is you give as good as you get . lily : well , i will take that as a compliment . i 'm sure you 'd feel the same way if someone messed with your family the way that she 's messed with mine . jordan : you 're right about that . lily : that 's why i hated that you were falling for her the way that my dad and devon did . i did n't want to see her trash your life the way that she trashed theirs . jordan : i 'm just being real . neil and devon seem pretty together . lily : yeah , well , in spite of hilary , they 're lucky they got out when they did . but i will never trust that witch , and i sure as hell will never like her . mariah : sorry to disappoint , hilary , but there is nothing festering under the surface between devon and me . if you are still unconvinced , you can have paul williams give me a polygraph live on air . hilary : relax , all right ? stop worrying . nobody cares about your comic - book romance . besides , i have ratings gold all cued up , and i am ready to drop it like it 's hot , hot , hot , hot . mariah : okay , as long as it does n't get us into another lawsuit . are you sure the scoop is legitimate ? hilary : i taped it myself . mariah : how resourceful of you . hilary : okay , look , it is showtime . mariah : greetings , genoa city . i am -- hilary : hello , world . i am hilary curtis . that 's mariah copeland , and this is `` the hilary hour . `` we are preempting our regular features to bring you late- breaking , exclusive news . mariah : so exclusive , in fact , that hilary is the only one who knows what it is . hilary : i could n't bear to spoil the surprise , so my staff is gon na be hit with this bombshell exactly when you are , audience . mariah : i hope it 's soon , because i ca n't take much more of this . the suspense , i mean . dina : oh , ashley , have you got a minute , dear ? ashley : sure . is this about the parker deal ? dina : oh , no , nothing like that . ashley : oh . dina : it just struck me that you working here with me is a gift that i had given up hope of ever getting . ashley : oh . it is something , is n't it ? and that it 's happening here at jabot . dina : i 'm so proud of you and jack , and i know john would be , too . i mean , you 've kept his dream alive and nurtured it into something quite remarkable . ashley : thank you . that 's very sweet of you to say . dina : john had it right . family is the most important thing . so i was really worried about billy and jack . i mean , do you think there 's a chance that they could , uh , get past this rift ? i know billy would love it , and so would i . ashley : so would i . so would traci . but now that billy and phyllis are living together , i think there 's less of a chance than ever . dina : oh , boy . well , i 've only met the woman a few times , and believe me , i do n't care much for her . ashley : believe me , she gets that a lot . dina : i know john would hate it that his two sons were fighting over someone like that . ashley : i agree . i 've told jack the same thing . i 'm just not sure what we can do at this point . dina : well , just call me a cockeyed optimist , because i 'm not giving up that easily . ashley : i like to hear that . dina : well , anything 's possible , my dear . just look at the two of us . [ guitar strumming ] reed : oh , hey . mattie : i was hoping you 'd still be up here . reed : yeah , um , did n't really know what to do or where to go with the way we left things . mattie : i know . i 'm sorry . but you 'll never guess who was at hamilton - winters when i showed up . reed : hopefully not your dad . mattie : your mom . reed : what ? why was she there ? mattie : my grandpa did n't say , but she was super nice to me . she even apologized for what 's happened between our families . reed : that 's amazing . i mean , at least a slight step in the right direction . mattie : yeah . maybe . although i did get the weird feeling that there might be more going on than you or i know about . reed : i - i really do n't want to ask you , but ... do you not want us to hang out anymore ? mattie : it 's not fair . our parents ' mess should n't mean that we ca n't be friends . reed : you literally took the words right out of the lyrics that i was messing around with . mattie : [ chuckles ] reed : if you think that they 're still keeping stuff from us , then we could always follow in their lead . mattie : i see what you 're saying . it 's just i 've never kept secrets from my mom ... or my dad . reed : [ sighs ] i - i mean , i get it . i get that . and it 's one of the great things about you -- your honesty . i was just kind of throwing it out . mattie : you know what ? if they can hide things , so can i . reed : [ chuckles ] [ footsteps approach ] benjamin : white russian , please . make it a double . cane : uh , well , forgive me if i stick to lemonade 'cause i want my head as clear as possible for when we discuss our upcoming business project . benjamin : yeah , we need to talk about that . you also may want to revise that drink order . [ sighs ] hilary : it is genoa city royalty on the rocks again . that 's right . the mega- rich and the super - troubled newmans are once more in the news . mariah : the newmans ? that 's today 's scoop ? hilary : well , the first time it was victor punching wayward son nick , but this time ... it 's a newman that would be voted least likely to melt down in public . only this time , she did . that 's right , brash & sassy fans . it is the normally very calm and poised victoria newman caught on tape being anything but . this shocking exclusive coming up after the break . stay tuned . victoria : you know what i think ? i think we should celebrate with a working lunch . whatever you want . billy : well , that sounds fantastic . it 's not every day you get your company back . victoria : that 's true . now we can pay jack 's obnoxious rent increase , we can relaunch dare . we should be back on track by the holidays . billy : if not before . let 's go . [ cellphone chimes ] victoria : oh , it 's cane . billy : you should do yourself a favor and just block him . victoria : no , he says we should turn on the `` the hilary hour . `` `` you ca n't miss this . `` billy : what 's this pathetic loser trying to pull now ? jack : i think i 've been quite clear about my feelings for brash & sassy . they are a chief competitor , and i want them eliminated . phyllis : even if that is your motivation and sticking it to billy is purely incidental , cane is another story . he 's out for revenge in the worst way , and that is so not what i am after . jack : oh , then it 's a kinder , gentler kind of corporate espionage you 're after . phyllis : unlike the two of you , i am not trying to destroy victoria 's company . i simply do not want billy 's life to be swallowed whole , end of story . jack : may i suggest that to accomplish that you are going to need to get your well - manicured hands a few shades dirtier . [ door opens ] ashley : excuse me . pardon the interruption . i just got a text from abby . we have to turn on `` the hilary hour `` right now . hilary : welcome back . now , we 've all heard the old saying `` never mix business with pleasure . `` now , in this exclusive video footage , we see victoria newman learn this lesson the hard way . victoria : i do n't understand . what does she have on me ? mariah : full disclosure -- my co - host has not previously shared this clip with me , so i have no more idea of what 's coming than any of you . hilary : now , i captured what you are about to see earlier today . for those of you who do n't know , the other man on sight , this male power player with victoria is benjamin hochman , the recently divorced chicago financier and corporate raider who singlehandedly dismantled nationwide department stores . benjamin : this is insane . what the hell is she about to air ? hilary : roll tape . victoria : you know , people warned me about you . yeah , they did . they said you were a pompous ass who could n't be trusted . i should have listened . i do n't know how i could be so stupid , actually . benjamin : you know , stupid would be not taking my help . brash & sassy wo n't survive without it . you paint this rosy picture about your company , but it 's in serious trouble . victoria : oh , we 'll do just fine with you , benjamin . guaranteed . benjamin : please just stop . i - i hate -- i hate how you 've twisted these things up . i care for you . victoria : oh , save it ! i ca n't believe i actually spent the night with you ! it was such a huge mistake ! benjamin : oh , really ? because you certainly seemed to enjoy it at the time . could n't get enough of the hoch . victoria : oh , well , as it is , i ca n't remember most of it . and now , truthfully , i 'm gon na pretend like we never even met . benjamin : well , as you can see , my deal with brash & sassy 's never gon na happen , so i 'm not gon na need your consulting work on a damn thing . hilary : so , any thoughts ? [ chuckles ] well , excuse my speechless co - host . now , tell me , is brash & sassy broke & passé ? who knew that one night of mindless sex could lead to this much hideousness ? well , i 'm sure that some of you did . this is `` the hilary hour . `` i am hilary curtis signing off . ciao . lily : look , it does n't matter how i feel about hilary . anyone who knows the both of you know that you 're way too good for her . jordan : i do n't know about that . lily : yeah . i mean , you 're way too decent and kind and special to be with a viper like her . jordan : special ? come on . lily : yes . you deserve to be with someone who wo n't take you for granted or treat your feelings like they 're nothing . jordan : what if i 've already found that woman , only ... she 's not an option ? [ next_on ] abby : nick moved out . dad gave the place to me . neil : we just gave a bridge loan to victoria newman . devon : you did that without talking to me first ? victoria : how could you ? airing that filthy trash . you 're taking that footage of me offline , and you 're doing it now . | phyllis and billy celebrated her return with a quickie in the jabot elevator . phyllis told jack that she did n't want to be a part of the brash and sassy scheme anymore because she did n't want to hurt billy . jack told phyllis that she 'd have to get her hands dirty if she wanted the plan to succeed . cane apologized to mattie for the way he acted , but he still insisted that she stay away from reed because reed was trouble . mattie dismissed cane 's warning . neil loaned victoria the money to save brash and sassy , on the condition that she give lily her job back . victoria happily agreed . victoria and neil thought about the time they dated . mattie and reed decided to date in secret . jordan asked lily to move to ny with him to find modeling work . lily declined because of her kids . lily told jordan he deserved better than hilary . jordan admitted he had feelings for lily . lily and jordan kissed . dina touched a nerve when she told jack about her talk with billy . dina turned in her new work report and passed off graham 's corrections as her own . dina told ashley she was optimistic that jack would eventually mend fences with billy . despite mariah 's reservations , hilary aired victoria and benjamin 's fight for the world to see , and publicly revealed that brash and sassy had money troubles and that victoria slept with benjamin . victoria and benjamin were upset about their private conversation hitting the airwaves . cane found out benjamin was n't going to hire him . | <s>[INST] dina : good morning . i got your text , jack . oh , i hope i 'm not too late , but i was waylaid en route . ashley : waylaid ? dina : mm - hmm . jack : by what ? dina : well , you two should have warned me about that rather charming young man -- our competition downstairs . [ cellphone chimes ] billy : whoa ! victoria : [ sighing ] oh , my god . neil : vicki , just calm down . victoria : i 'm so angry right now . i just want to -- neil : no , it 's -- it 's gon na be okay . victoria : i want to throw something . neil : no ! no , do n't -- no . please , please . can i have the box ? okay . victoria : [ sighs ] neil : whatever this is about , please do n't take it out on our brand - new office . plus i happen to really like this box . victoria : i 'm sorry . i apologize . neil : it 's okay . hey , come here . victoria : [ sighs ] neil : all right , we 're gon na take a nice , deep breath and regroup . [ exhales deeply ] victoria : [ inhales deeply ] neil : there we go . good . now , that guy upstairs , is that what this is all about ? i mean , why were you two arguing ? victoria : i trusted someone that i should n't have . people warned me , but i did n't listen , and , god , i wish i would have . neil : i understand . we 've all been there . victoria : no , not me . not like this . i mean , i am not on top of my game right now , neil , and i 'm afraid -- i 'm really afraid it 's getting worse . jordan : hey . lily : hey . jordan : billy said that they gave you the news about scaling back on the dare campaign . lily : yeah . and my paychecks along with it . jordan : you okay ? lily : i mean , i 'm disappointed . jordan : you know , billy and victoria -- they 're still crazy about you . it 's not personal . it 's just business . lily : i know . i wish it were personal , though , 'cause then i could fix it easily with , you know , a fruit basket or a spa certificate . jordan : i 've got a better idea . come look for work with me in new york . mariah : okay , well , i guess we will soon find out the winner of the `` how late will hilary be ? `` pool . [ laughter ] as co - host , i 've made myself ineligible . just saying . but i did decide to put in an extra 20 bucks for the cash prize winner ! [ laughter ] okay , guys , um , i did my best , but i am all out of time - wasting activities , so we should probably get this production meeting for `` the hilary hour `` started ... without hilary , who has decided to ignore all of my texts and voicemails . so , item one , on the taping schedule , we 're gon na be going on location for the shoot . hilary : perfect ! everyone is here for the production meeting . okay , here 's the plan , people . we are tossing out today 's entire show . mariah : what ? why ? hilary : because i have exclusive breaking news , and `` the hilary hour `` gets the exclusive . additional sponsorship jack : you 're right , mother . we should have told you which floors and which siblings to steer clear of . ashley : okay , i think that dina can handle a little friendly chitchat with our brother . jack : and i think billy had more in mind than a little chitchat , like maybe whining about his evil big brother ? dina : oh , well , i do n't think he said that . after all , he , uh , did mention a substantial hike in brash & sassy 's rent . jack : i brought to market value a space that includes a state - of - the - art research lab . if they do n't like it , they can move on . maybe they can set up their operation in jill 's garage . dina : oh , for god sakes . do n't you think that 's a rather crass way to talk about your own brother ? jack : mother , very recently , billy changed all the rules on how one treats one 's brother . ashley : let 's not go there , okay ? we 've got other pressing matters to attend to . dina : right you are , dear . and i certainly do n't mean to stir up trouble . ashley : no . no problem . um , dina , jack said that you finished the first half of the parker deal report . and i was wondering if you had a chance to look at it , jack ? jack : indeed i did . before we get into that , though , i would like to -- dina : now , let me stop you right there , because i know exactly what you 're about to say . jack : you do ? dina : i do . back at the hotel , i looked over all my work , and i was mortified to learn that i had made an error in calculation from the top that affected everything after that . i must say , i felt very foolish , so i stayed up late and i went over and fixed every one of those figures before i went to sleep . i want you to delete the one before and use this . and now i 'm off to the next phase of my analysis . unless , of course , i 'm already fired . billy : that was quite the welcome home . no need to wait till closing time . phyllis : were you a good boy when i was on the fenmore 's trip ? billy : positively angelic . too bad jack was n't , though . phyllis : what 's he done now ? billy : dropped a 25 % rent increase on our heads in the hope to get us out of the building . phyllis : could that force you to move ? billy : [ sighs ] you did n't hear this from me . phyllis : of course not . billy : brash & sassy 's in a tougher position than when you left . victoria 's trying to strike up a deal with hochman to get us a bridge loan . phyllis : those two are on the fast track . maybe that date they had the other night was a lot more than just dinner . billy : i do n't know . i just do n't think she has any option . it 's either him or her father . phyllis : she made the right choice . satan himself is better than victor . billy : yeah . [ cellphone chimes ] phyllis : lauren wants to hear about my trip in person . billy : do n't keep her waiting . one of us should keep our job . neil : you know what i think ? i think you 're , uh , i think you 're being a little too hard on yourself . victoria : i should have seen through him in a second . not only did i date the guy , i narrowly escaped making a disastrous business deal with him . neil : well , that means you , uh , got away . victoria : unfortunately , this does n't just affect me . between us ... brash & sassy 's in a lot of trouble right now . neil : what kind of trouble are we talking about ? victoria : the kind of trouble that shuts down companies . our sales figures are down . we have no cash coming in . we do n't have the budget for r & d or the marketing and promotion that we should be doing . and on top of that , we 're short a senior executive , and i do n't have the funds to hire a new one because of the crunch that we 're under . neil : lily told me how cane 's mistakes have impacted the company . victoria : yes , i know , but i 'm the one that 's got to turn this around . and to do that quickly , i need a short - term bridge loan . neil : yeah , that 's what i would do . but you ca n't tell me that hochman is your only option . victoria : yes , i can , because it 's true . the bank turned me down flat , which left me the option of hochman or my dad . when my dad offered me the money , let 's just say that i did n't turn him down very gracefully . neil : you two have a very complicated relationship . victoria : yes , that 's a diplomatic understatement . neil : well , it 's my specialty . victoria : maybe you can help me come up with a crow - eating speech that i will deliver before i tell my father that i 've changed my mind . neil : [ chuckles ] lucky for you , i think there 's one option that you have n't explored yet . mattie : the way my dad acted the other night when he found you at the house with me , totally embarrassing . reed : really , it 's -- it 's okay . mattie : you 're sweet , but it 's so not . reed : how did it get after i left ? mattie : things got so ugly . my dad totally lost it , and i ca n't even believe the things i said to him . reed : i 'm sorry . i really should have tried to reason with him . mattie : no , no , no . you did the right thing by getting out of there . no one can talk to him when he 's like this . ever since my mom kicked him out , he 's been completely irrational . reed : how does your mom feel about us hanging out ? mattie : well , she did n't go ballistic or anything , but she thinks we should take things slow . reed : it 's pretty much what my mom said . she just does n't want things to be complicated . i just wish our parents would handle their issues on their own terms and let us do our own thing , you know ? mattie : i know . i 've just never seen my dad act this way before . now i have no idea what he could do next . cane : [ sighs ] mattie : you need to get out of here quick . reed : what ? mattie : it 's -- it 's my dad . please . it 'll be so much worse if he sees us together . reed : okay , um , good luck . and i 'll -- i 'll be close if you need me . mattie : thanks . cane : [ sighs ] hey . mattie : hi . cane : hey . hey , you have a minute ? mattie : grandpa 's expecting me downstairs . cane : it wo n't take long , all right ? look ... i just want to apologize to you . i overreacted the other day . you know , it 's the first time i 've seen you kissing a boy , and it 's -- it 's kind of tough on a father . i 'm just kind of trying to adjust to the fact that you 're growing into a young woman . mattie : and me dating reed , are you adjusting to that , too ? cane : well , he 's victoria 's son , and , you know , she fired me . mattie : because of what you did ! you did n't give her any choice ! cane : yes . yes , this is true . but you do n't know much about her , and i do n't think you know much about reed , either . mattie : well , that 's not true . cane : and ever since he 's come back to town , victoria 's stressing he 's gon na cause trouble , right , 'cause he 's bad news . mattie : whatever reed might have done , is it worse than what you did ? cane : i 'm just trying to protect you , sweetheart . that 's all i 'm trying to do . mattie : then you should n't have wrecked our family . cane : okay . well , um ... i just wanted to say i 'm sorry . okay . i 'll see you later . [ sighs ] reed : are you okay ? what happened ? mattie : he gave me some stupid reason i 'm not supposed to like you . you 're a trouble - making delinquent who drove your mom crazy because you do n't know how to behave . it 's all so lame . reed : it 's kind of true . jordan : new york is the place to be when it comes to modeling and photography jobs . even better , i still have connections there to help both of us . lily : yeah , but i do n't have any recent experience outside of modeling for brash & sassy . jordan : that 's good enough for a bunch of the modeling agencies that i 'm tight with . one of them 's gon na snap you up for sure . lily : [ sighs ] i do n't know . i mean , that sounds great , but i have kids in high school . i ca n't just leave , you know . i have to be realistic . jordan : i know , i know . i figured . had to ask , though . lily : you 're gon na be moving to new york ? that 's so sad . we just reconnected . i 'm gon na miss you . jordan : right back at you . but do n't worry about it , though . i 'm not leaving tomorrow . gc 's still got a lot going for it . lily : including hilary ? i mean , if you relocate , what 's gon na happen to the two of you ? hilary : make sure this is cued up to roll in at the point that we discussed . and no previews . mariah : what is that ? hilary : oh , it 's -- it 's a flash drive . it 's this teeny , tiny , little , magical box filled with lots and lots of tv . mariah : and what poisonous , nasty surprise does our very own wicked witch have in her teeny , tiny , magical box ? hilary : no , no , no . i want a purely authentic reaction on camera . mariah : hilary , if you 're worried that i 'm not going to be disgusted by whatever it is you 've got on there , trust me , i will be . hilary : hey , do n't worry . it 's not about your mother for a change or your oh- so - special relationship with devon . mariah : why would i worry about devon and me ? there 's nothing lurid going on in our relationship that would appeal to the gossip hounds that you 're trying to attract . hilary : i did n't think there was , either . until now . ashley : no , we would never fire you . do n't be silly . jack : i would never terminate my own mother on her second day . ashley : that 's very bad karma . [ laughter ] dina : agreed . but a voicemail over the weekend would be a lot cleaner , would n't it ? jack : [ chuckles ] well , we are both very impressed that you found your mistake and corrected it so quickly . dina : well , you know , it was n't so long ago that i could buy and sell companies bigger than parker over lunch . [ chuckles ] so , if we 're done , i 'll get to it . and later we 'll get to the trip to the lake with your darling ravi .

'cause hilary would n't want to go or you do n't want her to ? jordan : let 's just say that we 've hit a few speed bumps . lily : like ? jordan : well , she 's jealous , for one . lily : of what ? jordan : what do you think ? or shall i say whom ? `` the young and the restless `` will continue . phyllis : good . you 're alone . jack : i did n't know you were back from your fenmore 's sightseeing tour . phyllis : fact finding . and i 'll fill you in on fenmore 's later . let 's discuss what 's really important . jack : oh , you mean our new supercouple ? maybe you have n't heard . as we speak , she is signing the papers for a bridge loan from the bank of hochman . phyllis : you 're late to the party , jack . that deal is dead . jack : wait , ben said it was a fait accompli . phyllis : yeah , until victoria discovered his under - the - table agreement with cane . jack : and now she 's thumbing her nose at his mountain of money . oh , wonderful . okay . we have to adjust our plan . any ideas ? phyllis : i 'm not so sure if you and i have a plan . you knew that cane was being pulled into this . you did n't even act surprised when i mentioned it just now . jack : so ? phyllis : so , you and cane share the same goal . you both are dying to bring billy down . consider me off the team . billy : so i assume the deal with hochman went well ? victoria : oh , you could say that , actually . billy : okay . he 's gon na loan you the money ? victoria : well , he was about to when i discovered his secret side deal with cane . billy : are you serious ? victoria : is it really any surprise that the man lives up to his sleazy reputation ? billy : so , what ? cane was just gon na sell our secrets to make some quick cash ? victoria : and benjamin was more than happy to pay for it as he slowly sucked the life out of our company . billy : my god , just when i think cane ca n't sink any lower . victoria : they 're a match made in hell . billy : look , i 'm really sorry that did n't work out with hochman . you need to know that he 's nowhere near your league . victoria : i know . thanks . if i never spend another minute thinking about that man , it would be too soon . i 'm just relieved that he did n't worm his way into our company . billy : yeah , me , too . but that does n't fix the cash - flow problem . victoria : no , it 's fixed . billy : what do you mean ? how ? when ? victoria : neil . he gave me the funding that we need to get over the hump . billy : that 's fantastic . i mean , i thought we were gon na have to get this thing fixed with a serious string attached . victoria : no , no strings attached . i mean , just one small one , but it 's not a problem . neil just wants to keep lily employed . billy : great . lily : typical hilary . she has an irrational envy of anything i do or have , including my friendship with you , which started way before she got here . jordan : [ sighs ] you ca n't call it a one - way feud , though . all i 'm saying is you give as good as you get . lily : well , i will take that as a compliment . i 'm sure you 'd feel the same way if someone messed with your family the way that she 's messed with mine . jordan : you 're right about that . lily : that 's why i hated that you were falling for her the way that my dad and devon did . i did n't want to see her trash your life the way that she trashed theirs . jordan : i 'm just being real . neil and devon seem pretty together . lily : yeah , well , in spite of hilary , they 're lucky they got out when they did . but i will never trust that witch , and i sure as hell will never like her . mariah : sorry to disappoint , hilary , but there is nothing festering under the surface between devon and me . if you are still unconvinced , you can have paul williams give me a polygraph live on air . hilary : relax , all right ? stop worrying . nobody cares about your comic - book romance . besides , i have ratings gold all cued up , and i am ready to drop it like it 's hot , hot , hot , hot . mariah : okay , as long as it does n't get us into another lawsuit . are you sure the scoop is legitimate ?

i know billy would love it , and so would i . ashley : so would i . so would traci . but now that billy and phyllis are living together , i think there 's less of a chance than ever . dina : oh , boy . well , i 've only met the woman a few times , and believe me , i do n't care much for her . ashley : believe me , she gets that a lot . dina : i know john would hate it that his two sons were fighting over someone like that . ashley : i agree . i 've told jack the same thing . i 'm just not sure what we can do at this point . dina : well , just call me a cockeyed optimist , because i 'm not giving up that easily . ashley : i like to hear that . dina : well , anything 's possible , my dear . just look at the two of us .

nikki : oh ! jack , i 'm sorry . i ... i should n't have done that . victor : you get a hold of yourself . how the hell did kevin know where to find chloe ? dr. harris : she ignored my orders . she slipped him a note at her fake funeral in genoa city . then she gave him my address in louisiana . victor : and just like that , he showed up at your door ? dr. harris : yes , demanding to stay with us . i did n't know what to do . victor : are you serious ? you just let him in like this ? dr. harris : kevin assured me he only wanted to be with maggie . but he lied . he had a gun , and he tied me up , and they ran off . [ sighs ] i - i finally freed myself , but i have no idea where they went . you -- you have to understand , mr. newman , this is not my fault . i did everything that you told me to do . victor : listen carefully . you find them . you bring them back . you got that ? chloe : should i wake up bella ? kevin : no . let 's let her sleep until we 're ready to roll . hopefully she 'll drift off again once we 're on the road . chloe : [ sighs ] okay . straight to oregon ? kevin : i say we drive till dawn and we sleep when we 're far away . chloe : how long do you think it 's gon na take us to get there ? kevin : couple days . hey . no worries , all right ? all of our family and friends understand why i need to start over someplace new . and everybody thinks you 're gone . nobody is looking for us . so from now on , it 's you , bella , and me . that 's all that matters . we get to portland , we start our new life , happily ever after . chloe : i wish you had n't have said that . nick : [ sighs ] phyllis : hi . victoria : hello . reed : hey . billy : i did n't expect you back so early . i hope you , uh , i hope you do n't mind , but i invited phyllis to spend some time with the kids and i . victoria : oh , how did that go ? billy : it was great . they had a great time . they had a blast . phyllis : billy , you do n't have to do that . you do n't have to be the cheerleader . victoria should know the whole truth . victoria : which is ? phyllis : the kids acted like they were , you know , meeting new people . it definitely was n't love at first sight . billy : oh , come on . you were great . she was great with them . you know , she brought over a video game , which was totally educational . she did her research and picked a good one . it was n't long before we all had a great time together . victoria : how nice . anyway , it 's getting late , so if you do n't mind , i ... phyllis : um , hit the bricks , yes . billy : hold on a second . just before ... i just want to make sure that you 're really -- you 're okay with this . nikki : oh , jack , i am so sorry . i - i hope you can forgive me for ... whatever that was . jack : i believe it 's still called a kiss . nikki : [ sighs ] is it ? it 's been awhile . i - i just was all scrambled mentally because of tonight . jack : do n't make too big a deal of it . it is n't like it has n't happened before . we were married once . nikki : yeah , well , does that mean you go around kissing all of your ex - wives ? jack : no . just you . nikki : hmm . jack : for what it 's worth , in that department , your skills are undiminished . ' nikki : oh , you are still a smooth talker . ohh ! boy . tonight was so not what i expected . jack : yeah , a lot of surprises , huh ? nikki : some of them not good . jack : victor , nicholas ? nikki : you were in the garage . how much did you hear ? jack : i did n't hear much . by the time i got there , nicholas was on his way . nikki : well , i knew that he was very against my performing , but i could n't believe that he would undermine me the way he did . jack : wait a second . nicholas adores you . and unlike his father , he is not willing to put you on display so that it reflects well on him . he wants what 's best for you . and if i was in his position , i might have done the same thing . nikki : oh , jack . jack : no , i mean it . i would have . nikki : you think it would have been better to not have the concert at all ? jack : you hung in there like a champion despite the agonizing pain . your performance was wonderful . the music was brilliant and inspiring . and you and i both know it could have gone another way . and victor should have known that no event , no charity , no fat donation check is worth the risk . nikki : yes , but you see , jack , victor did n't know any of that . i kept that information from him . it -- it was me , not him . i was determined to do it . and i 'm glad that i did , 'cause i got to perform and i got to let the people who have m.s . know that it 's not a death sentence , that you can have a wonderful life with it , and we raised so much money , jack . i feel so great about that . jack : and you should . but what about victor ? you feel great about him now ? chloe : i 'm afraid you just jinxed our chances of building the life that we want . kevin : how ? by saying `` happily ever after `` ? that 's silly . chloe : because those words are for fantasies . they are not real . kevin : chloe , it 's happening right now tonight , so start believing . chloe : you know , i 'm not gon na feel better until you put a thousand miles between us and victor , and that 's still not even enough . kevin : victor is not gon na be an issue . chloe : how can you say that ? kevin : because dr . harris , as far gone as he is , is still lucid enough to not admit how epically he screwed up . chloe : [ sighs ] victor : i paid you an obscene amount of money to do one thing -- to keep chloe hidden . dr. harris : i thought i got rid of kevin . i do n't know how it went wrong . victor : did either of them give you any ideas to where they were going ? dr. harris : they went to get bella , so i assume they 're en route to genoa city . victor : and you 're telling me that now ? does kevin know that i 'm involved ? dr. harris : i never said a word . and maggie would n't tell . she 's -- she 's too frightened of you . victor : what do you mean , maggie ? who the hell is maggie ? dr. harris : my daughter . you brought her back to me . victor : wait a minute . you think chloe is your daughter ? dr. harris : who 's chloe ? look , please , mr. newman , please tell me you will find maggie and bring her straight back to me . victor : i will find them . now , you listen very carefully . you destroy this number that you just called and never contact me again . charlie : where 's dad ? lily : he 's out . given how upset you both were , we thought it might be best if he were n't here when you got back . look , i know you have a lot of questions about your dad and the woman that he worked with . charlie : woman he got pregnant . lily : whatever is on your mind , we can discuss it like adults . mattie : i 'm still shocked he cheated on you . lily : and he 's very sorry about that . charlie : he 's always lecturing us about safe sex . different rules apply for him , i guess . lily : look , i know it seems like a double standard . charlie : what else would you call it ? lily : he 's human , charlie . he makes mistakes like everybody else . mattie : this is n't a mistake . a mistake is something that can be fixed . what he did , that 'll affect us forever . lily : and he 's well aware of that . mattie : do we have to pretend to love this new baby ? will its mother be a part of our lives ? lily : her name is juliet . and her child will be your new little brother or sister . charlie : half . lily : your dad will not abandon his responsibilities toward this child . mattie : what about his responsibilities toward us ... and to you ? cane : [ sighs ] juliet : hi . cane : hmm . juliet : i ca n't pretend we do n't know each other . but i just have no clue what to say to you . cane : well , you could always start by saying that you 're sorry . juliet : look , you know i 'm sorry . cane : yeah ? well , you know what ? tonight lily and i told the kids about your pregnancy , and now my children despise me . juliet : oh , god . i 'm sure they do n't , cane : hmm . juliet : and i never wanted to ruin things with your kids . cane : well , it 's too late for that , is n't it ? juliet : i meant what i said before . i do n't expect anything from you . cane : i will still pay child support , and i will provide whatever is necessary . juliet : yeah , is a father 's love on that list ? because a baby deserves two parents . but that 's your call . i wo n't pressure you . cane : oh , really ? well , that 's a change , is n't it ? because that 's all you 've done since you filed the lawsuit is pressure me . juliet : i 'm sorry you got fired . cane : what did you expect to happen when you falsely accused me of sexual harassment , juliet ? jack : fresh chamomile with wisconsin honey from right here in walworth county . nikki : oh , jack , you 're too good to me . jack : impossible . so , where were we ? nikki : hmm . victor 's motivation . jack : oh , yeah . that . nikki : i had always assumed that he arranged for me to do that concert as an attempt to buy my affection , but i was wrong . he was n't trying to control me or anything like that . he truly wanted to do something good and make me be a part of it . jack : let me ask you something . the jewelry , the couture , your name in lights , even on a big state - of - the - art research facility , why would victor go to those lengths ? nikki : because he 's desperate for me to forgive him . jack : forgive him for what ? what has that jerk done now ? lily : look , as uncomfortable as all of this is , i know that your dad loves you as much as ever . mattie : then why would he do what he did ? lily : he and juliet were celebrating a deal they made in tokyo , and they both got drunk , and neither of them were thinking of the consequences . charlie : that 's another thing . dad 's always telling me , `` do n't drink , `` and , you know , i 'm supposed to follow his rules and he could just do whatever he wants ? lily : he knows what he did was wrong . he knows that . mattie : maybe it was , but this juliet , she sounds like a horrible person . lily : look , before any of this happened , i liked her . i considered her a friend . you know , she took a one - time thing and made it much worse , and she has hurt a lot of people . charlie : how do you know it only happened one time ? lily : because that 's what your father told me , and i believe him . and you should , too . mattie : but we ca n't just pretend that nothing happened . i ca n't , anyway . charlie : yeah . me neither . lily : no one expects you to . i just do n't want this to change your relationship with him . charlie : it already has . lily : look , you two mean more to him than anything . so please , please find a way to forgive him . mattie : have you ? cane : you did n't think your accusations would have repercussions ? juliet : all i could focus on was how unfair it was that i lost my job . i was n't thinking about yours . cane : but you did n't sue for wrongful termination . you sued for sexual harassment , which you know did not happen . juliet : i was taken advantage of and made a scapegoat . i was a valuable team player , and i did excellent work for you and victoria , and you did not appreciate any of it . cane : do n't exaggerate this . do n't exaggerate this , okay ? do n't . juliet : every word i 'm saying is true . promises were made and then ripped away all because billy could n't keep his mouth shut around some hockey players , and that is no exaggeration . cane : well , you know what ? you are right about one thing . he is a massive screw - up , and if victoria does n't catch on fast soon , she wo n't even have a company to run . phyllis : look , you do n't have to put victoria on the spot . let her get some rest . you guys can talk about it tomorrow . billy : i know . we 're leaving . i just want to make sure that you 're cool with phyllis being here . victoria : i never said you had to keep her a secret from the kids . i have no problem that they officially met . reed : [ scoffs ] that 's pretty nice of you , mom . phyllis : yes , i sure agree . thank you . you and billy have terrific kids . victoria : yes , well , if you excuse me , i need to take something for this pounding headache . billy : she okay ? she never gets headaches . what ? was the music turned up too loud ? reed : no . actually , the show was great , and grandma really killed it . but , um ... after , she fell . billy : what ? reed : it was nothing . i mean , she 's -- she 's fine . you can ask her . [ cell phone chimes ] reed : oh , mom , um , is it all right if i go to crimson lights to meet up with a friend ? victoria : yeah , go ahead , honey . reed : all right . phyllis : i 'm gon na be in the car , okay ? good night , victoria . victoria : goodbye . [ door opens ] billy : so this fall you took ? [ door closes ] victoria : yeah , it was just me being a klutz . a little after - show entertainment for the black - tie crowd . embarrassing , but no big deal . billy : and was it a big deal , phyllis being here tonight ? i asked you three times . you can tell me the truth . victoria : i told you , billy , i do n't have a problem with it . billy : seriously ? victoria : [ sighs ] billy . billy : look , i know you 're not phyllis ' biggest fan , victoria . victoria : look , she 's not just a fling to you , all right ? that 's what you keep telling me . she 's gon na be a part of your life , so she has to meet the kids , and she did . i just wish you would have told me so i could have smoothed the way a bit . but you said that everything went great , so it went great . billy : it did . victoria : good . billy : so thank you for being cool with this . before i leave , you -- you sure you 're okay ? is there anything i can do ? victoria : i 'm fine . i just need to get some sleep . good night . billy : okay . victoria : [ sighs ] chloe : okay . i think that 's everything . kevin : well , i guess it 's time to leave . unless you think we need some more snacks before we hit the road . chloe : uh , no , we have water in the cooler . anything else we need , we can just wait till we get out of town . kevin : okay , um , i 'll bring this all out to the car . you go wake bella . chloe : okay . kevin : and then we hit it . okay . [ knock on door ] kevin : who is it ? victor : your worst nightmare . kevin : [ whispers ] hide in the bathroom , quick . uh , victor ? is that you ? hold on , please . hi . oh , this is a surprise . victor : not a moment too soon , i gather . kevin : for what ? oh , um , to say goodbye . yeah , i guess you heard bella and i are leaving town . victor : you were in such a hurry to get out of this dump , you paid with a credit card . makes it easy to follow you . kevin : yeah , we decided to leave genoa city . it 's not a secret . my family knows . paul knows . victor : really ? so everyone knows ? kevin : yeah . there 's so many bad memories here , you know ? ready to erase them all and start fresh with my daughter . victor : oh . how about chloe ? kevin : well , we -- we wo n't forget about her . she 's in our hearts , and , um , regardless of what she did , we 're always gon na have our memories . victor : chloe ! why do n't you come out of there ? or do i have to come get you ? reed : hey . mattie : hi . uh , thanks for coming . you have no idea . reed : what happened ? are you okay ? mattie : no . but having the sane friendly person to talk to will definitely help . reed : got the `` friendly `` covered , but as far as sane goes , i 'm kind of iffy . mattie : sorry for not answering your text messages . i was n't ignoring you . i promise . reed : do n't worry about it . what 's up ? mattie : i found something bad out tonight , major . reed : oh , um ... about my mom firing your dad . 'cause that was -- mattie : justified . that 's not it . they 're connected , but that 's just the start . my family 's become this big , gigantic mess . reed : you texted the right guy . messed up families are kind of my specialty . mattie : [ chuckles ] reed : you should have been at that event tonight . mattie : really ? what was going on ? reed : you first . mattie : no , you . it might make it easier for me . reed : [ sighs ] all right , well , it was just one of those big , fancy , formal fundraisers . i 've been to a few of them like this before , but tonight the whole family was acting bizarre . mattie : your grandma was playing piano . i saw the posters . reed : yeah , and she was amazing . but there was this obvious thing between my grandpa and my uncle nick , then nick just walked out on them , and then my grandpa disappeared and he came back looking like he 'd gone a couple rounds with someone . mattie : victor newman got into a fist fight with his own son ? reed : that 's the thing . i do n't know . and no one would tell me anything . then my grandma bolted from her own party , and i do n't know . there 's more , but my mom would n't explain anything . mattie : that 's the worst , when they treat you like you 're some immature , little kid , like you 're too clueless to realize that they 're being total hypocrites . reed : yeah , `` do as i say , not as i do . `` never get tired of that one . mattie : i know , right ? and they expect us to always tell the truth . no joke , up until a few weeks ago , my dad was my hero . i thought my parents knew some secret other people did n't because they 're still married and in love , not like all the other kids at school with divorced parents , stepbrothers , half- sisters , baby daddies , all weird , crazy , and complicated . oh , i 'm so sorry . that came out so wrong . phyllis : okay , i tell you what . why do n't we forget dessert and just go home ? billy : why ? it 's just my ex - coworkers . i 'm not gon na let them get between us and apple crumble . cane : see , i know that you legally ca n't disclose the terms of your settlement , but my severance package from brash & sassy totaled zero . juliet : that is outrageous . cane : no , actually , that is par for the course . oh , you see , 'cause victoria 's so consumed with trying to win billy back that she 's completely lost her ability to make a rational decision . billy : oh , that 's right , ladies and gentlemen . that 's why cane 's in the position that he 's in -- because of victoria . you know , vicki must not have cc 'd me on the memo , the one that said that you were supposed to cheat on your wife and get a coworker pregnant . nick : hey . have you seen mom ? victoria : no , not since the party . why ? nick : she 's gone again . victoria : what ? nick : yeah , i went out to the ranch to check on her . you know , she never came home from the benefit . she has n't returned any of my calls or messages . victoria : well , maybe she heard what you did . dad told me how you nearly derailed the concert . nick : oh , she found out in the worst possible way . she ran into me and dad at the parking deck . we were fighting . victoria : [ sighs ] god . that 's fantastic . way to go , nick . what the hell were you thinking ? nick : well , i guess dad failed to fill you in on that part of it . victoria : let me guess . you are tired of protecting dad from his secrets . and guess what ? so am i. i told mom she needs to make a choice -- either stay with him or kick him out for good . either way , whatever she chooses , i want to quit this charade . but you trying to destroy the soundboard so that the benefit would get canceled ? i mean , i hope you know that 's totally inexcusable . nick : i was protecting our mother . look , her m.s . has flared up , and she 's in terrible pain , and i ca n't watch her suffer anymore . victoria : then why did n't you just tell dad the truth ? nick : 'cause she did n't want anyone to know ! victoria : well , she played beautifully tonight , so i guess she 's a better judge of her condition than you are . nick : vick , you are so wrong about that . chloe : i ca n't go to jail . i wo n't . victor : if memory serves me , you 're dead , are n't you ? kevin : so dr . harris called you . victor : you know , i thought you were a smart boy . you disappoint me . you actually want to protect her ? kevin : she 's the love of my life , and i want to be with her no matter what . you would do the same thing for nikki . victor : i would n't be so stupid as to leave my trail all over . any tom , dick , and harry can find me . chloe : so what are you gon na do with us ? kevin : he does n't have to do anything . let us go . we have no interest in spilling your secrets to anyone ever . victor : i ca n't take that chance . nikki : what should n't i forgive victor for ? there 's a long list . jack : well , you 've already done it so many times . nikki : that 's right . so enough is enough . jack : you were acting every bit the loving wife tonight . nikki : that 's right , jack . i was acting . i was performing on and off stage . i did n't want to let on to the charity how i really feel about him . jack : okay , this -- this is different . talk to me . what is going on ? what is this really about ? nikki : it 's about what he did to you . jack : to me ? nikki : and i hoped when he went to prison that he would learn something finally , he would realize the horrible things that he did to you and phyllis , but he did n't . and that -- that 's just the last straw for me , and it should have been the end of our marriage . it was n't , but it should have been . jack : you do n't blame yourself for this . nikki : oh , yes , i do , jack . i do very much blame myself , because i 'm the one who 's always giving him the free pass , making up the excuses for him , making sure he gets away with all of his nonsense . i 'm the one who kept believing in the victor newman who gave all the family dinners , told me that he wanted to retire and focus on our marriage . i believed that that man was going to exist . but he never existed because he ca n't be that man . the man who disowned his son tonight , that 's the real victor newman . jack : this is the most clear - eyed , intelligent thing you have said to me in a very long time . and i 'm 100 % behind you . i also want you to know i wo n't hold you to it . nikki : what do you mean ? jack : well , you 've had a very stressful evening and talking in the heat of the moment . i just want you to know if you decide to forgive victor again , i will understand . cane : you know , your defense of marriage , it seems kind of shaky considering your track record . billy : oh , do n't change the subject , man . you 're attacking victoria for her competence in business . yet the only mistake she made was trusting you . juliet : no , cane is right about one thing . she let you get away with murder , unlike the rest of us peons . billy : hold on a second . are you defending the guy that you claim sexually harassed you ? my god , you two are unbelievable . juliet : i worked in that office , too . i know who made the most serious mistakes and who got blamed for them . excuse me . phyllis : i 'll tell you what . let 's grab a seat . billy : no , are you hearing this ? i mean , this is coming from the guy that nearly took down the entire company with his lies . cane : i have made mistakes , okay , and i know that , but this lawsuit would n't have happened if you got the pink slip instead of juliet . billy : maybe that 's true , but you would still have a baby on the way , would n't you ? cane : i own up for my mistakes , billy , okay ? so maybe it 's time that you just start owning up for yours . nick : mom was in agony minutes after she performed in her dressing room . that concert took every ounce of strength she had in her . victoria : she seemed fine when reed and abby and i came by afterwards . nick : do you think i 'm making this up to explain why i tried to stop the concert ? victoria : no , i do not think that . i just think that -- [ sighs ] mom does n't want anyone making her decisions for her . you 're treating her like a child . nick : where are your priorities , vick ? why do n't you care about mom ? victoria : if you would have come to me and consulted with me , then we could have gone to mom together . that 's all i 'm saying . nick : that would n't have mattered ! look , i do n't want to fight about this with you , okay , or mom . dad has driven all of us to this . as far as i 'm concerned , this is on him . victoria : look , nick , i -- [ sighs ] nick : whoa . vick , whoa . are you okay ? what 's wrong ? victoria : [ sighs ] billy : victoria worked night and day to try and control the damage caused by cane to the company . who knows how long it 's gon na take for us to get back what we lost . in cane 's world , victoria 's the villain ? come on . that 's bordering on delusional . phyllis : i feel sorry for him . billy : are you kidding me ? every bit of this he brought on himself . phyllis : hmm . i do n't have an argument for you at all on that , but the thing is , self - inflicted wounds hurt the most . he 's gon na be feeling the burn from betraying his family for a very long time . billy : look , it 's not hype when i say that he nearly destroyed brash & sassy . victoria was determined to fight this lawsuit because she believed cane when he said that he did n't touch juliet . he was lying the whole time . she could have settled , yet she 's putting out fires , and the numbers for the company are going down . cane 's situation , impregnating a coworker when he 's married with two kids , that 's not victoria 's fault . he 's just a ... a guy that needs an enemy . phyllis : meaning you . billy : yeah , it was me for a long time , but it sounds like victoria might have bumped ahead of me . mattie : thanks . sorry . i did n't mean to make your family sound freakish or anything . reed : it 's no big deal . [ sighs ] divorced parents , custody issues , half sibs . welcome to my world . since i was little , i lived with my dad mainly , only seeing my mom and the rest of my family on vacations . a lot of complicated relationships . so growing up , i did n't really expect a fairytale . mattie : but see , i did . i thought it was possible and real . my parents , they were living proof . but i guess that 's just another lie parents tell their kids to keep them happy . jack : i actually thought i could make myself forget that victor had destroyed my life . crazy , huh ? then the day came i had to face the fact i 'm never gon na forgive that bastard ever . he stole my happiness . yeah , i put my life back together somewhat . but at a terrible cost . nikki : does that mean you 've been biding your time , waiting to get revenge ? jack : no , no , no , no , no . that 's pointless . that much i have learned . nikki : well , i know you have n't been happy since you and phyllis broke up . jack : saw right through me , did you ? i 've been putting on quite a show , but even indulging in some mindless , meaningless sex . i somehow thought having my mother in town might change everything . well , clearly that was delusional , too . nikki : well , no , wait a minute . your relationship with your mother is better , but that kind of pain , it 's gon na take time to get over . jack : yeah , and now i find myself obsessing about graham . nikki : no , you 're not obsessing . you are just concerned about your mother , that he 's taking advantage . jack : i 'm trying to protect her . she does n't see it that way . nikki : i applaud you . i think you 're doing the right thing . but at the end of the day , my question is , who 's looking after jack ? victor : how is it that you imagined that i would allow this woman to get away with murdering my son ? kevin : because you 're just as culpable . one move against chloe , and i will tell paul you conspired with harris to get her out of that hospital , bring her back here to frame adam . you 're the one who set off the chain of events that led to adam 's death . victor : i 'll take that chance . kevin : so what are you gon na do ? send us back to dr . harris ? he 's so far over the edge , he thinks that chloe is his daughter , maggie , back from the dead to practice medicine with him . victor . victor : mm - hmm ? kevin : you know me , and you know you can trust me . you and i have the same goal here -- to keep the world from figuring out that chloe mitchell is alive . the police are n't searching for her . i can protect her . victor : how are you gon na do that ? kevin : we 're moving to oregon . she has a new name , a new identity . she will not be discovered . i will see to that . victor : you 're a smart boy . you know that i have as much at stake as the two of you . kevin : and i have zero interest in ruining your life , victor . and i 'm the last person in the world that can judge you . so everything that you have done will stay a secret until the day i die , so long as you back off of chloe . protecting her and protecting my daughter are the only things that i care about . it makes me a better man , and there is nothing i wo n't do to keep us safe and together . phyllis : the best way for cane to get back at victoria is to find a new employer , prove that she made a mistake giving the ax to someone with his smarts and expertise . billy : who also knows brash & sassy 's secrets . phyllis : yeah , and i know that that is a concern for you and victoria . billy : the bitter jag that he 's on ? yeah . he would probably get off revealing all his secrets to the competition . phyllis : and we all know that disgruntled ex - employees are dangerous . just look at juliet . cane : hey . how did things go with the kids ? lily : i tried defending you as best i could , but they 're upset . cane : after all the things i 've tried to teach them about safe sex , responsible drinking , and telling the truth and commitment , they must think i 'm the biggest fraud there is . i do n't know how things are gon na be the same again . lily : they wo n't be . you did n't really think things would magically be okay , did you ? cane : are you talking about between me and the kids or between me and you ? are you trying to tell me that you do n't want to be married to me anymore ? nick : all right . what the heck was that ? victoria : nothing . exhaustion , lack of sleep , dehydration . i do n't know . i 'm fine . i promise . nick : [ sighs ] sorry if i 'm contributing to your stress . victoria : do n't mention it . if i hear from mom , i 'll tell her she needs to call you , okay ? nick : all right . victoria : all right . i 'm fine . nick : you promise ? victoria : yes . nick : all right . i 'll see you . victoria : good night . [ door opens ] [ door closes ] jack : as much as i appreciate your concern , believe me , i can take care of myself . nikki : well , you should n't have to . [ sighs ] i have to tell you , when you whisked me out of there tonight , it was like flipping a switch giving me permission to live the life that i want to live . jack : and what would that be ? nikki : in this instance ? being right here with you . this is exactly what i need . victor : all right , you can go . as long as chloe remains dead in people 's eyes , i will not come after you , okay ? chloe : [ voice breaking ] thank you . kevin : you will not regret this . victor : you better hope i wo n't . kevin : we made it . come on . okay . [ next_on ] mariah : i need an honest answer from you . how do you actually feel about me ? ravi : this is more personal than professional . ashley , this is about your mother . jack : i 'm sorry . dina : you should be . how dare you treat me like this . | victor is on the phone with dr. harris , who lets him know that kevin took chloe and left and he does n't know where they have gone . billy asks victoria if she is certain that she is okay with phyllis being here with him and the children . kevin and chloe are preparing to leave for oregon when kevin tells her that they will be happy ever after . chloe is upset that kevin has jinxed them by saying happily ever after . dr. harris wants his daughter brought back to him but victor tells him that he is talking about chloe . victor demands that dr. harris find kevin and chloe . victoria assures billy that she fine with phyllis being there . at the abbott cabin , jack and nikki kiss but she soon pulls away and apologizes to him for kissing him . at the park , mattie pours out her heart to reed about the things that have been going on at home . reed can sympathize with her because he has faced such things too . cane sits alone at the bar at the athletic club when juliet comes up and apologizes to him for all that is going on . cane tells her that he broke down and told charlie and mattie what happened between them . billy asks victoria if she 's all right after her fall at the party . victoria assures him that she is fine . | <s>[INST] nikki : oh ! jack , i 'm sorry . i ... i should n't have done that . victor : you get a hold of yourself . how the hell did kevin know where to find chloe ? dr. harris : she ignored my orders . she slipped him a note at her fake funeral in genoa city . then she gave him my address in louisiana . victor : and just like that , he showed up at your door ? dr. harris : yes , demanding to stay with us . i did n't know what to do . victor : are you serious ? you just let him in like this ? dr. harris : kevin assured me he only wanted to be with maggie . but he lied . he had a gun , and he tied me up , and they ran off . [ sighs ] i - i finally freed myself , but i have no idea where they went . you -- you have to understand , mr. newman , this is not my fault . i did everything that you told me to do . victor : listen carefully . you find them . you bring them back . you got that ? chloe : should i wake up bella ? kevin : no . let 's let her sleep until we 're ready to roll . hopefully she 'll drift off again once we 're on the road . chloe : [ sighs ] okay . straight to oregon ? kevin : i say we drive till dawn and we sleep when we 're far away . chloe : how long do you think it 's gon na take us to get there ? kevin : couple days . hey . no worries , all right ? all of our family and friends understand why i need to start over someplace new . and everybody thinks you 're gone . nobody is looking for us . so from now on , it 's you , bella , and me . that 's all that matters . we get to portland , we start our new life , happily ever after . chloe : i wish you had n't have said that . nick : [ sighs ] phyllis : hi . victoria : hello . reed : hey . billy : i did n't expect you back so early . i hope you , uh , i hope you do n't mind , but i invited phyllis to spend some time with the kids and i . victoria : oh , how did that go ? billy : it was great . they had a great time . they had a blast . phyllis : billy , you do n't have to do that . you do n't have to be the cheerleader . victoria should know the whole truth . victoria : which is ? phyllis : the kids acted like they were , you know , meeting new people . it definitely was n't love at first sight . billy : oh , come on . you were great . she was great with them . you know , she brought over a video game , which was totally educational . she did her research and picked a good one . it was n't long before we all had a great time together . victoria : how nice . anyway , it 's getting late , so if you do n't mind , i ... phyllis : um , hit the bricks , yes . billy : hold on a second . just before ... i just want to make sure that you 're really -- you 're okay with this . nikki : oh , jack , i am so sorry . i - i hope you can forgive me for ... whatever that was . jack : i believe it 's still called a kiss . nikki : [ sighs ] is it ? it 's been awhile . i - i just was all scrambled mentally because of tonight . jack : do n't make too big a deal of it . it is n't like it has n't happened before . we were married once . nikki : yeah , well , does that mean you go around kissing all of your ex - wives ? jack : no . just you . nikki : hmm . jack : for what it 's worth , in that department , your skills are undiminished . ' nikki : oh , you are still a smooth talker . ohh ! boy . tonight was so not what i expected . jack : yeah , a lot of surprises , huh ? nikki : some of them not good . jack : victor , nicholas ? nikki : you were in the garage . how much did you hear ? jack : i did n't hear much . by the time i got there , nicholas was on his way . nikki : well , i knew that he was very against my performing , but i could n't believe that he would undermine me the way he did . jack : wait a second . nicholas adores you . and unlike his father , he is not willing to put you on display so that it reflects well on him . he wants what 's best for you . and if i was in his position , i might have done the same thing . nikki : oh , jack . jack : no , i mean it . i would have . nikki : you think it would have been better to not have the concert at all ? jack : you hung in there like a champion despite the agonizing pain . your performance was wonderful . the music was brilliant and inspiring . and you and i both know it could have gone another way . and victor should have known that no event , no charity , no fat donation check is worth the risk . nikki : yes , but you see , jack , victor did n't know any of that . i kept that information from him . it -- it was me , not him . i was determined to do it . and i 'm glad that i did , 'cause i got to perform and i got to let the people who have m.s . know that it 's not a death sentence , that you can have a wonderful life with it , and we raised so much money , jack . i feel so great about that . jack : and you should . but what about victor ? you feel great about him now ? chloe : i 'm afraid you just jinxed our chances of building the life that we want . kevin : how ? by saying `` happily ever after `` ? that 's silly . chloe : because those words are for fantasies . they are not real . kevin : chloe , it 's happening right now tonight , so start believing . chloe : you know , i 'm not gon na feel better until you put a thousand miles between us and victor , and that 's still not even enough . kevin : victor is not gon na be an issue . chloe : how can you say that ? kevin : because dr . harris , as far gone as he is , is still lucid enough to not admit how epically he screwed up . chloe : [ sighs ] victor : i paid you an obscene amount of money to do one thing -- to keep chloe hidden . dr. harris : i thought i got rid of kevin . i do n't know how it went wrong . victor : did either of them give you any ideas to where they were going ? dr. harris : they went to get bella , so i assume they 're en route to genoa city . victor : and you 're telling me that now ? does kevin know that i 'm involved ? dr. harris : i never said a word . and maggie would n't tell . she 's -- she 's too frightened of you . victor : what do you mean , maggie ? who the hell is maggie ? dr. harris : my daughter . you brought her back to me . victor : wait a minute . you think chloe is your daughter ? dr. harris : who 's chloe ? look , please , mr. newman , please tell me you will find maggie and bring her straight back to me . victor : i will find them . now , you listen very carefully . you destroy this number that you just called and never contact me again . charlie : where 's dad ? lily : he 's out . given how upset you both were , we thought it might be best if he were n't here when you got back . look , i know you have a lot of questions about your dad and the woman that he worked with . charlie : woman he got pregnant . lily : whatever is on your mind , we can discuss it like adults . mattie : i 'm still shocked he cheated on you . lily : and he 's very sorry about that . charlie : he 's always lecturing us about safe sex . different rules apply for him , i guess . lily : look , i know it seems like a double standard . charlie : what else would you call it ? lily : he 's human , charlie . he makes mistakes like everybody else . mattie : this is n't a mistake . a mistake is something that can be fixed . what he did , that 'll affect us forever . lily : and he 's well aware of that . mattie : do we have to pretend to love this new baby ? will its mother be a part of our lives ? lily : her name is juliet . and her child will be your new little brother or sister . charlie : half . lily : your dad will not abandon his responsibilities toward this child . mattie : what about his responsibilities toward us ... and to you ? cane : [ sighs ] juliet : hi . cane : hmm . juliet : i ca n't pretend we do n't know each other . but i just have no clue what to say to you . cane : well , you could always start by saying that you 're sorry . juliet : look , you know i 'm sorry . cane : yeah ? well , you know what ? tonight lily and i told the kids about your pregnancy , and now my children despise me . juliet : oh , god . i 'm sure they do n't , cane : hmm . juliet : and i never wanted to ruin things with your kids . cane : well , it 's too late for that , is n't it ? juliet : i meant what i said before . i do n't expect anything from you . cane : i will still pay child support , and i will provide whatever is necessary . juliet : yeah , is a father 's love on that list ? because a baby deserves two parents . but that 's your call . i wo n't pressure you . cane : oh , really ? well , that 's a change , is n't it ? because that 's all you 've done since you filed the lawsuit is pressure me . juliet : i 'm sorry you got fired . cane : what did you expect to happen when you falsely accused me of sexual harassment , juliet ? jack : fresh chamomile with wisconsin honey from right here in walworth county . nikki : oh , jack , you 're too good to me . jack : impossible . so , where were we ? nikki : hmm . victor 's motivation . jack : oh , yeah . that . nikki : i had always assumed that he arranged for me to do that concert as an attempt to buy my affection , but i was wrong . he was n't trying to control me or anything like that . he truly wanted to do something good and make me be a part of it . jack : let me ask you something . the jewelry , the couture , your name in lights , even on a big state - of - the - art research facility , why would victor go to those lengths ? nikki : because he 's desperate for me to forgive him . jack : forgive him for what ? what has that jerk done now ? lily : look , as uncomfortable as all of this is , i know that your dad loves you as much as ever . mattie : then why would he do what he did ? lily : he and juliet were celebrating a deal they made in tokyo , and they both got drunk , and neither of them were thinking of the consequences . charlie : that 's another thing . dad 's always telling me , `` do n't drink , `` and , you know , i 'm supposed to follow his rules and he could just do whatever he wants ? lily : he knows what he did was wrong . he knows that . mattie : maybe it was , but this juliet , she sounds like a horrible person . lily : look , before any of this happened , i liked her . i considered her a friend . you know , she took a one - time thing and made it much worse , and she has hurt a lot of people . charlie : how do you know it only happened one time ? lily : because that 's what your father told me , and i believe him . and you should , too . mattie : but we ca n't just pretend that nothing happened . i ca n't , anyway . charlie : yeah . me neither . lily : no one expects you to . i just do n't want this to change your relationship with him . charlie : it already has . lily : look , you two mean more to him than anything . so please , please find a way to forgive him . mattie : have you ? cane : you did n't think your accusations would have repercussions ? juliet : all i could focus on was how unfair it was that i lost my job . i was n't thinking about yours . cane : but you did n't sue for wrongful termination . you sued for sexual harassment , which you know did not happen . juliet : i was taken advantage of and made a scapegoat . i was a valuable team player , and i did excellent work for you and victoria , and you did not appreciate any of it . cane : do n't exaggerate this . do n't exaggerate this , okay ? do n't . juliet : every word i 'm saying is true . promises were made and then ripped away all because billy could n't keep his mouth shut around some hockey players , and that is no exaggeration . cane : well , you know what ? you are right about one thing . he is a massive screw - up , and if victoria does n't catch on fast soon , she wo n't even have a company to run . phyllis : look , you do n't have to put victoria on the spot . let her get some rest . you guys can talk about it tomorrow . billy : i know . we 're leaving . i just want to make sure that you 're cool with phyllis being here . victoria : i never said you had to keep her a secret from the kids . i have no problem that they officially met . reed : [ scoffs ] that 's pretty nice of you , mom . phyllis : yes , i sure agree . thank you . you and billy have terrific kids . victoria : yes , well , if you excuse me , i need to take something for this pounding headache . billy : she okay ? she never gets headaches . what ? was the music turned up too loud ? reed : no . actually , the show was great , and grandma really killed it . but , um ... after , she fell . billy : what ? reed : it was nothing . i mean , she 's -- she 's fine . you can ask her . [ cell phone chimes ] reed : oh , mom , um , is it all right if i go to crimson lights to meet up with a friend ? victoria : yeah , go ahead , honey . reed : all right . phyllis : i 'm gon na be in the car , okay ? good night , victoria . victoria : goodbye . [ door opens ] billy : so this fall you took ? [ door closes ] victoria : yeah , it was just me being a klutz . a little after - show entertainment for the black - tie crowd . embarrassing , but no big deal . billy : and was it a big deal , phyllis being here tonight ? i asked you three times . you can tell me the truth . victoria : i told you , billy , i do n't have a problem with it . billy : seriously ? victoria : [ sighs ] billy . billy : look , i know you 're not phyllis ' biggest fan , victoria . victoria : look , she 's not just a fling to you , all right ? that 's what you keep telling me . she 's gon na be a part of your life , so she has to meet the kids , and she did . i just wish you would have told me so i could have smoothed the way a bit . but you said that everything went great , so it went great . billy : it did . victoria : good . billy : so thank you for being cool with this . before i leave , you -- you sure you 're okay ? is there anything i can do ? victoria : i 'm fine . i just need to get some sleep . good night . billy : okay . victoria : [ sighs ] chloe : okay . i think that 's everything . kevin : well , i guess it 's time to leave . unless you think we need some more snacks before we hit the road . chloe : uh , no , we have water in the cooler . anything else we need , we can just wait till we get out of town . kevin : okay , um , i 'll bring this all out to the car . you go wake bella . chloe : okay . kevin : and then we hit it . okay . [ knock on door ] kevin : who is it ? victor : your worst nightmare . kevin : [ whispers ] hide in the bathroom , quick . uh , victor ? is that you ? hold on , please . hi . oh , this is a surprise . victor : not a moment too soon , i gather . kevin : for what ? oh , um , to say goodbye . yeah , i guess you heard bella and i are leaving town . victor : you were in such a hurry to get out of this dump , you paid with a credit card . makes it easy to follow you . kevin : yeah , we decided to leave genoa city . it 's not a secret . my family knows . paul knows . victor : really ? so everyone knows ? kevin : yeah . there 's so many bad memories here , you know ? ready to erase them all and start fresh with my daughter . victor : oh . how about chloe ? kevin : well , we -- we wo n't forget about her . she 's in our hearts , and , um , regardless of what she did , we 're always gon na have our memories . victor : chloe ! why do n't you come out of there ? or do i have to come get you ? reed : hey . mattie : hi . uh , thanks for coming . you have no idea . reed : what happened ? are you okay ? mattie : no . but having the sane friendly person to talk to will definitely help . reed : got the `` friendly `` covered , but as far as sane goes , i 'm kind of iffy . mattie : sorry for not answering your text messages . i was n't ignoring you . i promise . reed : do n't worry about it . what 's up ? mattie : i found something bad out tonight , major . reed : oh , um ... about my mom firing your dad . 'cause that was -- mattie : justified . that 's not it . they 're connected , but that 's just the start . my family 's become this big , gigantic mess . reed : you texted the right guy . messed up families are kind of my specialty . mattie : [ chuckles ] reed : you should have been at that event tonight . mattie : really ? what was going on ? reed : you first . mattie : no , you . it might make it easier for me . reed : [ sighs ] all right , well , it was just one of those big , fancy , formal fundraisers . i 've been to a few of them like this before , but tonight the whole family was acting bizarre . mattie : your grandma was playing piano . i saw the posters . reed : yeah , and she was amazing . but there was this obvious thing between my grandpa and my uncle nick , then nick just walked out on them , and then my grandpa disappeared and he came back looking like he 'd gone a couple rounds with someone . mattie : victor newman got into a fist fight with his own son ? reed : that 's the thing . i do n't know . and no one would tell me anything . then my grandma bolted from her own party , and i do n't know . there 's more , but my mom would n't explain anything . mattie : that 's the worst , when they treat you like you 're some immature , little kid , like you 're too clueless to realize that they 're being total hypocrites . reed : yeah , `` do as i say , not as i do . `` never get tired of that one . mattie : i know , right ? and they expect us to always tell the truth . no joke , up until a few weeks ago , my dad was my hero . i thought my parents knew some secret other people did n't because they 're still married and in love , not like all the other kids at school with divorced parents , stepbrothers , half- sisters , baby daddies , all weird , crazy , and complicated . oh , i 'm so sorry . that came out so wrong . phyllis : okay , i tell you what . why do n't we forget dessert and just go home ? billy : why ? it 's just my ex - coworkers . i 'm not gon na let them get between us and apple crumble . cane : see , i know that you legally ca n't disclose the terms of your settlement , but my severance package from brash & sassy totaled zero . juliet : that is outrageous . cane : no , actually , that is par for the course . oh , you see , 'cause victoria 's so consumed with trying to win billy back that she 's completely lost her ability to make a rational decision . billy : oh , that 's right , ladies and gentlemen . that 's why cane 's in the position that he 's in -- because of victoria . you know , vicki must not have cc 'd me on the memo , the one that said that you were supposed to cheat on your wife and get a coworker pregnant . nick : hey . have you seen mom ? victoria : no , not since the party . why ? nick : she 's gone again . victoria : what ? nick : yeah , i went out to the ranch to check on her . you know , she never came home from the benefit . she has n't returned any of my calls or messages . victoria : well , maybe she heard what you did . dad told me how you nearly derailed the concert . nick : oh , she found out in the worst possible way . she ran into me and dad at the parking deck . we were fighting . victoria : [ sighs ] god . that 's fantastic . way to go , nick . what the hell were you thinking ? nick : well , i guess dad failed to fill you in on that part of it . victoria : let me guess . you are tired of protecting dad from his secrets . and guess what ? so am i. i told mom she needs to make a choice -- either stay with him or kick him out for good . either way , whatever she chooses , i want to quit this charade . but you trying to destroy the soundboard so that the benefit would get canceled ? i mean , i hope you know that 's totally inexcusable . nick : i was protecting our mother . look , her m.s . has flared up , and she 's in terrible pain , and i ca n't watch her suffer anymore . victoria : then why did n't you just tell dad the truth ? nick : 'cause she did n't want anyone to know ! victoria : well , she played beautifully tonight , so i guess she 's a better judge of her condition than you are . nick : vick , you are so wrong about that . chloe : i ca n't go to jail . i wo n't . victor : if memory serves me , you 're dead , are n't you ? kevin : so dr . harris called you . victor : you know , i thought you were a smart boy . you disappoint me . you actually want to protect her ? kevin : she 's the love of my life , and i want to be with her no matter what . you would do the same thing for nikki . victor : i would n't be so stupid as to leave my trail all over . any tom , dick , and harry can find me . chloe : so what are you gon na do with us ? kevin : he does n't have to do anything . let us go . we have no interest in spilling your secrets to anyone ever . victor : i ca n't take that chance . nikki : what should n't i forgive victor for ? there 's a long list . jack : well , you 've already done it so many times . nikki : that 's right . so enough is enough . jack : you were acting every bit the loving wife tonight . nikki : that 's right , jack . i was acting . i was performing on and off stage . i did n't want to let on to the charity how i really feel about him . jack : okay , this -- this is different . talk to me . what is going on ? what is this really about ? nikki : it 's about what he did to you . jack : to me ? nikki : and i hoped when he went to prison that he would learn something finally , he would realize the horrible things that he did to you and phyllis , but he did n't . and that -- that 's just the last straw for me , and it should have been the end of our marriage . it was n't , but it should have been . jack : you do n't blame yourself for this . nikki : oh , yes , i do , jack . i do very much blame myself , because i 'm the one who 's always giving him the free pass , making up the excuses for him , making sure he gets away with all of his nonsense . i 'm the one who kept believing in the victor newman who gave all the family dinners , told me that he wanted to retire and focus on our marriage . i believed that that man was going to exist . but he never existed because he ca n't be that man . the man who disowned his son tonight , that 's the real victor newman . jack : this is the most clear - eyed , intelligent thing you have said to me in a very long time . and i 'm 100 % behind you . i also want you to know i wo n't hold you to it . nikki : what do you mean ? jack : well , you 've had a very stressful evening and talking in the heat of the moment . i just want you to know if you decide to forgive victor again , i will understand . cane : you know , your defense of marriage , it seems kind of shaky considering your track record . billy : oh , do n't change the subject , man . you 're attacking victoria for her competence in business . yet the only mistake she made was trusting you . juliet : no , cane is right about one thing . she let you get away with murder , unlike the rest of us peons . billy : hold on a second . are you defending the guy that you claim sexually harassed you ? my god , you two are unbelievable . juliet : i worked in that office , too . i know who made the most serious mistakes and who got blamed for them . excuse me . phyllis : i 'll tell you what . let 's grab a seat . billy : no , are you hearing this ? i mean , this is coming from the guy that nearly took down the entire company with his lies . cane : i have made mistakes , okay , and i know that , but this lawsuit would n't have happened if you got the pink slip instead of juliet . billy : maybe that 's true , but you would still have a baby on the way , would n't you ? cane : i own up for my mistakes , billy , okay ? so maybe it 's time that you just start owning up for yours . nick : mom was in agony minutes after she performed in her dressing room . that concert took every ounce of strength she had in her . victoria : she seemed fine when reed and abby and i came by afterwards . nick : do you think i 'm making this up to explain why i tried to stop the concert ? victoria : no , i do not think that . i just think that -- [ sighs ] mom does n't want anyone making her decisions for her . you 're treating her like a child . nick : where are your priorities , vick ? why do n't you care about mom ? victoria : if you would have come to me and consulted with me , then we could have gone to mom together . that 's all i 'm saying . nick : that would n't have mattered ! look , i do n't want to fight about this with you , okay , or mom . dad has driven all of us to this . as far as i 'm concerned , this is on him . victoria : look , nick , i -- [ sighs ] nick : whoa . vick , whoa . are you okay ? what 's wrong ? victoria : [ sighs ] billy : victoria worked night and day to try and control the damage caused by cane to the company . who knows how long it 's gon na take for us to get back what we lost . in cane 's world , victoria 's the villain ? come on . that 's bordering on delusional . phyllis : i feel sorry for him . billy : are you kidding me ? every bit of this he brought on himself . phyllis : hmm . i do n't have an argument for you at all on that , but the thing is , self - inflicted wounds hurt the most . he 's gon na be feeling the burn from betraying his family for a very long time . billy : look , it 's not hype when i say that he nearly destroyed brash & sassy . victoria was determined to fight this lawsuit because she believed cane when he said that he did n't touch juliet . he was lying the whole time . she could have settled , yet she 's putting out fires , and the numbers for the company are going down . cane 's situation , impregnating a coworker when he 's married with two kids , that 's not victoria 's fault . he 's just a ... a guy that needs an enemy . phyllis : meaning you . billy : yeah , it was me for a long time , but it sounds like victoria might have bumped ahead of me . mattie : thanks . sorry . i did n't mean to make your family sound freakish or anything . reed : it 's no big deal . [ sighs ] divorced parents , custody issues , half sibs . welcome to my world . since i was little , i lived with my dad mainly , only seeing my mom and the rest of my family on vacations . a lot of complicated relationships . so growing up , i did n't really expect a fairytale . mattie : but see , i did . i thought it was possible and real . my parents , they were living proof . but i guess that 's just another lie parents tell their kids to keep them happy . jack : i actually thought i could make myself forget that victor had destroyed my life . crazy , huh ? then the day came i had to face the fact i 'm never gon na forgive that bastard ever . he stole my happiness . yeah , i put my life back together somewhat . but at a terrible cost . nikki : does that mean you 've been biding your time , waiting to get revenge ? jack : no , no , no , no , no . that 's pointless . that much i have learned . nikki : well , i know you have n't been happy since you and phyllis broke up . jack : saw right through me , did you ? i 've been putting on quite a show , but even indulging in some mindless , meaningless sex . i somehow thought having my mother in town might change everything . well , clearly that was delusional , too . nikki : well , no , wait a minute . your relationship with your mother is better , but that kind of pain , it 's gon na take time to get over . jack : yeah , and now i find myself obsessing about graham . nikki : no , you 're not obsessing . you are just concerned about your mother , that he 's taking advantage . jack : i 'm trying to protect her . she does n't see it that way . nikki : i applaud you . i think you 're doing the right thing . but at the end of the day , my question is , who 's looking after jack ? victor : how is it that you imagined that i would allow this woman to get away with murdering my son ? kevin : because you 're just as culpable . one move against chloe , and i will tell paul you conspired with harris to get her out of that hospital , bring her back here to frame adam . you 're the one who set off the chain of events that led to adam 's death . victor : i 'll take that chance . kevin : so what are you gon na do ? send us back to dr . harris ? he 's so far over the edge , he thinks that chloe is his daughter , maggie , back from the dead to practice medicine with him . victor . victor : mm - hmm ? kevin : you know me , and you know you can trust me . you and i have the same goal here -- to keep the world from figuring out that chloe mitchell is alive . the police are n't searching for her . i can protect her . victor : how are you gon na do that ? kevin : we 're moving to oregon . she has a new name , a new identity . she will not be discovered . i will see to that . victor : you 're a smart boy . you know that i have as much at stake as the two of you . kevin : and i have zero interest in ruining your life , victor . and i 'm the last person in the world that can judge you . so everything that you have done will stay a secret until the day i die , so long as you back off of chloe . protecting her and protecting my daughter are the only things that i care about . it makes me a better man , and there is nothing i wo n't do to keep us safe and together . phyllis : the best way for cane to get back at victoria is to find a new employer , prove that she made a mistake giving the ax to someone with his smarts and expertise . billy : who also knows brash & sassy 's secrets . phyllis : yeah , and i know that that is a concern for you and victoria . billy : the bitter jag that he 's on ? yeah . he would probably get off revealing all his secrets to the competition . phyllis : and we all know that disgruntled ex - employees are dangerous . just look at juliet . cane : hey . how did things go with the kids ? lily : i tried defending you as best i could , but they 're upset . cane : after all the things i 've tried to teach them about safe sex , responsible drinking , and telling the truth and commitment , they must think i 'm the biggest fraud there is . i do n't know how things are gon na be the same again . lily : they wo n't be . you did n't really think things would magically be okay , did you ? cane : are you talking about between me and the kids or between me and you ? are you trying to tell me that you do n't want to be married to me anymore ? nick : all right . what the heck was that ? victoria : nothing . exhaustion , lack of sleep , dehydration . i do n't know . i 'm fine . i promise . nick : [ sighs ] sorry if i 'm contributing to your stress . victoria : do n't mention it . if i hear from mom , i 'll tell her she needs to call you , okay ? nick : all right . victoria : all right . i 'm fine . nick : you promise ? victoria : yes . nick : all right . i 'll see you . victoria : good night . [ door opens ] [ door closes ] jack : as much as i appreciate your concern , believe me , i can take care of myself . nikki : well , you should n't have to . [ sighs ] i have to tell you , when you whisked me out of there tonight , it was like flipping a switch giving me permission to live the life that i want to live . jack : and what would that be ? nikki : in this instance ? being right here with you . this is exactly what i need . victor : all right , you can go . as long as chloe remains dead in people 's eyes , i will not come after you , okay ? chloe : [ voice breaking ] thank you . kevin : you will not regret this . victor : you better hope i wo n't . kevin : we made it . come on . okay .

[ tabitha sighs ] tabitha : when my timmy died , i felt dead . and then you came along and you brought so much joy into my life , endora . and we have achieved so much mischief in a very short time , have n't we ? we broke up those true lovers , charity and miguel . and -- oh . and she left town , and that saved our bacon . and that poor sap miguel is still out there searching for her , but no luck as yet . now , shall we see what fun is going on next door at the bennett house ? hmm . whitney 's pregnant with her half brother chad 's baby and trying to pass it off as fox 's . most entertaining . ivy : whitney , i am surprised at you . you 're the daughter of a doctor , and you have n't been examined yet ? you know that prenatal care is essential . we have to get you to the hospital tonight , and then the doctor can tell us how long you have been pregnant and we will know for sure who the father is -- my son fox or your half brother chad . tabitha : whitney 's playing `` who 's the daddy ? `` of course , that 's not fooling our ivy because she pulled the same trick with her own son , ethan . speaking of ethan , what is going on with this menage a trois of his ? and , of course , theresa is playing another game . she 's playing `` who 's the baby ? `` ethan : can i get some help here , please ? tabitha : theresa made herself a surrogate mother for gwen and ethan , and , yes , she is pregnant with ethan 's baby , but no one really knows who the mother is . is it theresa or is it gwen ?

that sleazeball who calls himself my father ruined my mother 's life , ruined all of our lives ! i 'll tell you something , the next time i see that man , i 'm going to kill him . tabitha : oh , goody . let 's hope so . now , where are mr . and mrs . wheeler ? oh , yes , that 's right . they moved into the bennett family 's bed - and - breakfast . katherine : oh , sheridan hates me now . and i ca n't tell her i 'm her mother . i ca n't tell her i 'm katherine crane . it puts her in danger with alistair and it could destroy her relationship with luis . tabitha : m. oh , endora , imagine the fireworks if those two couples were in the same room together . oh , you like that idea , do you ? how would you like to see sheridan and luis , martin and katherine , and pilar and that angry little paloma all sitting around the same thanksgiving table together ? endora : da ! tabitha : i 'll take that as a yes . endora : da - da . tabitha : oh , endora ! when our guests arrive , this house will be filled with hatred , pain , and sufferg , just like so many other family thanksgivings all across the country . oh , put on your seatbelt , endora . we are going to host a very bumpy dinner . a thanksgiving from hell . 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 ( female announcer ) women have the talentto play multiple roles . gwen : ethan , theresa ca n't -- we ca n't lose our baby . ethan : it 's all right . rebecca : what , am i the only one around here who can see through theresa 's lies ? i mean , such drama . she probably pricked her own finger to get the blood . gwen : mother , stop it ! ethan : damn it , rebecca . you know , if it were n't for you trying to convince us that she was faking those cramps , we would 've gotten here a lot sooner . if anything happens to theresa or our baby , i wo n't forgive you , you understand ? rebecca : well -- well , wait , that 's what theresa said . ethan : what ? rebecca : `` our baby , `` and -- and that 's what you said before theresa had the procedure . what -- ethan , what is going on there ? have you forgotten to tell us something ? ethan : no , what -- what do you mean ? rebecca : ethan , what the hell is going on between you and theresa ? i mean , that is your child she 's carrying , is n't it , your baby with gwen ? ivy : what is the problem ? do n't you want to have the best possible care for your baby ? whitney : of course i do , ivy . ivy : well , and you do want to know who the real father is , do n't you ? whitney : well , i already know who the real father of my baby is . it 's fox . and i -- and i can prove it . ivy : how ? whitney : well , after the last time chad and i were together , i had my period . ivy : whitney , honey , you can be pregnant and still have your period . fox : ok , you know what , mom ? that 's enough , all right ?

and how could you put whitney at risk like that ? fox : ahem . i did n't put whitney at risk , chad . we used a condom every time , if you must know . chad : oh , really ? obviously not . fox : it was one time , the first time ! we got carried away . what -- i do n't have to explain myself to you ! chad : you would n't have let it happen if you loved whitney ! you 'd have put her first and not your own selfish needs ! whitney : the both of you please stop it right now . chad : you do n't care about whitney . you care about one thing . ivy : ok , enough , chad . chad : but i do care about whitney . no matter who the father is , i 'm going to be there for whitney and the baby . fox : like hell you 're going to be there for her ! whitney : ok , the arguing -- please stop it ! fox : good job . chad : hey , you , too , man . ivy : enough . this stress is n't good for whitney or the baby . that 's why we need to get you to a hospital now . whitney : no ! i am not going to the hospital , ivy . ivy : you need to be examined . whitney : no , no one is going to examine me . tabitha : oh , endora ! oh , this could be such fun ! oh , that nasty beth is dying to come between luis and sheridan . oh , endora , you are such a clever little demon . it 's so much easier for me to visualize my table with these instead of those silly place cards .

[ tabitha sighs ] tabitha : when my timmy died , i felt dead . and then you came along and you brought so much joy into my life , endora . and we have achieved so much mischief in a very short time , have n't we ? we broke up those true lovers , charity and miguel . and -- oh . and she left town , and that saved our bacon . and that poor sap miguel is still out there searching for her , but no luck as yet . now , shall we see what fun is going on next door at the bennett house ? hmm . whitney 's pregnant with her half brother chad 's baby and trying to pass it off as fox 's . most entertaining . ivy : whitney , i am surprised at you . you 're the daughter of a doctor , and you have n't been examined yet ? you know that prenatal care is essential . we have to get you to the hospital tonight , and then the doctor can tell us how long you have been pregnant and we will know for sure who the father is -- my son fox or your half brother chad . tabitha : whitney 's playing `` who 's the daddy ? `` of course , that 's not fooling our ivy because she pulled the same trick with her own son , ethan . speaking of ethan , what is going on with this menage a trois of his ? and , of course , theresa is playing another game . she 's playing `` who 's the baby ? `` ethan : can i get some help here , please ? tabitha : theresa made herself a surrogate mother for gwen and ethan , and , yes , she is pregnant with ethan 's baby , but no one really knows who the mother is . is it theresa or is it gwen ? our ethan 's been a busy boy . oh , i pity poor theresa if gwen finds out that he slept with her . oh ! eve : what happened ? ethan : dr. russell , she 's having cramps . she fainted . i do n't know . gwen : she 's bleeding . eve : it 's a good thing you brought her right in . rebecca : well , what ? gwen : mother , if it was n't for you , we would have been here an hour ago . you said she was faking ! rebecca : well , she probably still is faking . i mean , that little witch could give meryl streep acting lessons . gwen : mother , we saw the blood , ok ? god , dr . russell , please tell me , is my baby going to be ok ? tabitha : oh , dear . oh , i hope the little nipper 's going to be all right . oh , we never wish ill on the unborn , do we , endora ? that 's just not cricket . well , we just have to hope for the best . endora : uh - oh . tabitha : `` uh - oh . `` thank you . shall we tune in to daddy 's mansion , huh , and see what 's going on up there ? there 's always a lot of pain and suffering . that 'll bring a smile to your little face , wo n't it ? thank you . pilar just found out that mr . and mrs . wheeler are really her sainted husband , martin , and the jezebel he ran off with years ago . hmm , the news is all over town , and pilar is not a happy camper . and luis is a little bit angry about it , too . sheridan : luis , you have got to calm down . luis : `` calm down `` ? that sleazeball who calls himself my father ruined my mother 's life , ruined all of our lives ! i 'll tell you something , the next time i see that man , i 'm going to kill him . tabitha : oh , goody . let 's hope so . now , where are mr . and mrs . wheeler ? oh , yes , that 's right . they moved into the bennett family 's bed - and - breakfast . katherine : oh , sheridan hates me now . and i ca n't tell her i 'm her mother . i ca n't tell her i 'm katherine crane . it puts her in danger with alistair and it could destroy her relationship with luis . tabitha : m. oh , endora , imagine the fireworks if those two couples were in the same room together . oh , you like that idea , do you ? how would you like to see sheridan and luis , martin and katherine , and pilar and that angry little paloma all sitting around the same thanksgiving table together ? endora : da ! tabitha : i 'll take that as a yes . endora : da - da . tabitha : oh , endora ! when our guests arrive , this house will be filled with hatred , pain , and sufferg , just like so many other family thanksgivings all across the country . oh , put on your seatbelt , endora . we are going to host a very bumpy dinner . a thanksgiving from hell . 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 ( female announcer ) women have the talentto play multiple roles . gwen : ethan , theresa ca n't -- we ca n't lose our baby . ethan : it 's all right . rebecca : what , am i the only one around here who can see through theresa 's lies ? i mean , such drama . she probably pricked her own finger to get the blood . gwen : mother , stop it ! ethan : damn it , rebecca . you know , if it were n't for you trying to convince us that she was faking those cramps , we would 've gotten here a lot sooner . if anything happens to theresa or our baby , i wo n't forgive you , you understand ? rebecca : well -- well , wait , that 's what theresa said . ethan : what ? rebecca : `` our baby , `` and -- and that 's what you said before theresa had the procedure . what -- ethan , what is going on there ? have you forgotten to tell us something ? ethan : no , what -- what do you mean ? rebecca : ethan , what the hell is going on between you and theresa ? i mean , that is your child she 's carrying , is n't it , your baby with gwen ? ivy : what is the problem ? do n't you want to have the best possible care for your baby ? whitney : of course i do , ivy . ivy : well , and you do want to know who the real father is , do n't you ? whitney : well , i already know who the real father of my baby is . it 's fox . and i -- and i can prove it . ivy : how ? whitney : well , after the last time chad and i were together , i had my period . ivy : whitney , honey , you can be pregnant and still have your period . fox : ok , you know what , mom ? that 's enough , all right ? whitney says the baby 's mine . we 're done . the baby 's mine , ok ? chad : yeah , you could n't wait to move in on her , could you ? whitney : chad , please -- chad : you took advantage of her when she was vulnerable and confused . fox : ok , that 's not what happened . i love her . chad : yeah , you loved her long enough to knock her up in two seconds flat . you know , you are unbelievable . all the woman you 've slept with , and you do n't use a condom . who is that dumb nowadays , anyway ? and how could you put whitney at risk like that ? fox : ahem . i did n't put whitney at risk , chad . we used a condom every time , if you must know . chad : oh , really ? obviously not . fox : it was one time , the first time ! we got carried away . what -- i do n't have to explain myself to you ! chad : you would n't have let it happen if you loved whitney ! you 'd have put her first and not your own selfish needs ! whitney : the both of you please stop it right now . chad : you do n't care about whitney . you care about one thing . ivy : ok , enough , chad . chad : but i do care about whitney . no matter who the father is , i 'm going to be there for whitney and the baby . fox : like hell you 're going to be there for her ! whitney : ok , the arguing -- please stop it ! fox : good job . chad : hey , you , too , man . ivy : enough . this stress is n't good for whitney or the baby . that 's why we need to get you to a hospital now . whitney : no ! i am not going to the hospital , ivy . ivy : you need to be examined . whitney : no , no one is going to examine me . tabitha : oh , endora ! oh , this could be such fun ! oh , that nasty beth is dying to come between luis and sheridan . oh , endora , you are such a clever little demon . it 's so much easier for me to visualize my table with these instead of those silly place cards .

'cause jennifer wants her happily ever after , and that 's not gon na happen if eric finds out that nicole still loves him , got it ? eric : you know , everything that happened with nicole is ancient history . and it is for brady too . i think his forgiveness really helped me move on . kayla : forgiveness is the most powerful gift .

[ knock on door ] scott : pardon the interruption , but your gatekeeper 's away from her post , and i have a ton of ideas i want to run by you , if that 's all right . abby : [ chuckles ] scott ! hi . wonderful to see you , too . yeah , my dad 's in a business meeting , so all those ideas of yours will have to wait . unless you want to run them by me first . scott : pass , but thanks . abby : wait ! not so fast . please . scott : oh , can i help you with something ? abby : actually , yes . thank you so much for asking . yes , here is a list of companies . it 's about a dozen . i need some research done on them . very easy , very basic , but very urgent . scott : of course it is . abby : well , i 'd have my intern do it , but she 's only allowed to work eight hours a day . scott : then you might want to alert the top , uh , business schools about the unpaid labor shortage , 'cause i wo n't be pitching in on that or any of your other little projects . neil : afraid i do not have an appointment . victoria : oh ! oh , neil , it 's so good to see you . neil : it 's good to see you , too . you look great . victoria : thank you . and i mean that . it 's not just because i know the only reason you 're here is because you heard about the lawsuit . neil : lily told me what 's up , and , um , i 've been trying to reassure her . victoria : as any good dad would . neil : thanks . i wanted to check in with you before i blow much more sunshine in that direction . victoria : well , i 'm sure that lily told you that michael baldwin is representing us . neil : yes , and you are in excellent hands . victoria : of course . and at this moment , he 's petitioning the judge to throw out the entire suit . neil : would n't that be nice . victoria : yes , and warranted . michael said that his arguments were well- received yesterday , and he 's cautiously optimistic , and so am i . neil : then for the moment , count me in . especially when the alternative is watching my family get torn to pieces . mattie : dad , are you okay ? cane : yeah , baby . of course i am . mattie : i know something 's wrong . cane : okay . and how do you know that ? mattie : because every time i walk into a room when you and mom are talking , you both immediately change the subject and paint these huge smiles on your face . and i 've never seen anyone stare that intently at a cup of coffee . cane : i 'm just waiting for it to cool down . mattie : dad , it 's empty . cane : hey , um , you never told me about your , uh , evening at the underground . how 'd that go ? mattie : and there it is ! do n't do that , dad ! cane : what am i doing ? mattie : changing the subject . the underground was cool , but we were talking about you . are you and mom really okay ? cane : yeah , baby , we 're okay . mattie : because i think something 's off . you know you can tell me , right ? hilary : juliet , what are you doing here ? juliet : i just checked in . hilary : i thought that leslie told you to keep a low profile until the trial . juliet : she did , but then she called me last night and said to come back . apparently things have accelerated . hilary : as in you might go to court ? juliet : maybe . maybe not . hilary : maybe not ? meaning that you might back out of this ? why ? why did n't you call me ? juliet : i was driving all night . there was n't really any time . but leslie did say we might be in a position to settle ... for a very big check . hilary : that is unacceptable , juliet . you ca n't settle , not now . i wo n't let you . leslie : your honor , despite mr. baldwin 's entreaties to the contrary , i assure you my client 's complaint against brash & sassy is quite legitimate . it 's true at the time of the sexual harassment -- michael : please , your honor . leslie : i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . alleged sexual harassment , my client 's employment by the company was as an independent contractor . however , this , in no way , lessens the crucial role miss juliet helton played in tokyo on behalf of brash & sassy . she was responsible for securing the firm 's partnership with a top asian distributor , pulling it from the jaws of disaster after mr. ashby 's behavior thoroughly botched the deal . miss helton is a highly respected , young businesswoman who , quite logically , hoped her contribution to such a vital international undertaking would lead to an offer of full - time employment . now , it 's correct to say mr. ashby never claimed miss helton 's hypothetical hiring would be his decision , but it was in his power to eradicate any chance of brash & sassy hiring miss helton based on his recommendation or lack thereof to miss newman . thus he was able to manipulate miss helton by promising her his endorsement in exchange for sexual favors . michael : may i remind your honor and opposing counsel that there 's no proof that this alleged quid pro quo was ever offered by mr. ashby or indeed ever existed anywhere except in miss helton 's mind ? judge hazen : and may i remind you , mr. baldwin , that you 've already stated your objections to this case , and i would appreciate you offering the same courtesy to plaintiff 's counsel . leslie : thank you , your honor . once upon a time abby : so was that your childish way of telling me that you quit ? scott : no and no . abby : okay , meaning what ? i do n't have time for riddles . scott : or the skill required to solve them . abby : [ chuckles ] scott : so i 'll clarify . no , i was n't being childish , and no , i have n't quit . abby : so my dad fired you ? or laid you off or , um , put an end to your verbal contract . however he wanted to phrase it to spare your enormous yet oh - so fragile ego . scott : victor is n't overly concerned with sparing anyone 's ego . abby : except maybe his own . and maybe he thought it was better to cut you off now before he had to admit to everyone that he grossly overestimated your sustainability here in the business world . that 's to put it a kind way . scott : if that 's what kindness looks like around here , then yeah , he really messed up bringing me in . abby : okay , let 's play the whole sensitive card . you do n't have the stamina to make it here in corporate life . you 're better for flitting around the globe . scott : flitting ? abby : mm - hmm . scott : someone got a thesaurus for christmas . abby : or hiding behind your keyboard or blogging or whatever you do . that 's your thing , right ? scott : again , your kindness is overwhelming , and i 'd love to just continue yakking with you . but i 'd rather focus on my new promotion that was handed to me by victor . oh , no ! daddy did n't mention that to you ? oh . abby : i guess he did n't find it very newsworthy . scott : then i 'm happy that i can be the one to share it with you that i 'm officially now in charge of newman 's recently acquired digital news company . abby : what are you talking about ? scott : my new job . publisher and editor - in - chief of hashtag . abby : [ sighs ] sharon : here you go . sorry for the wait . sometimes that machine 's a little temperamental . zack : oh , no problem at all . thanks . sharon : oh , you 're abby newman 's friend . zack : well , someday maybe , but right now we 're just business partners . zack . sharon : i thought i recognized you . you two are working on that dating app . how 's it going ? zack : well , i know you were skeptical about the whole thing , but it 's actually coming along nicely . helps when you partner with a newman . sharon : yeah , that can open a lot of doors . zack : but i 've already said too much . abby will be here any minute , and she 's very strict about confidentiality . sharon : did n't you bring the project to her ? zack : ca n't say . sharon : do n't worry . i got you . tessa : what are you doing in genoa city ? what do you want from me ? ! cane : all right , sweetheart , i love you 're concerned , okay , but there 's nothing to worry about . mattie : maybe i should decide that for myself . cane : look at you all grown up , huh ? okay . i 'll tell you . mattie : finally . cane : it 's nothing . it 's nothing . it 's just boring work stuff . mattie : but what kind of stuff ? are your jobs on the line ? cane : no , no , no , sweetie . no , everything 's fine . it 's just , you know , just office politics . you know , who 's the boss of who and ... mattie : whom . but what 's gon na happen ? cane : i do n't know . it 'll blow over . and , uh , everything will be fine , and , you know ... but listen , i want you to promise me that you 're not gon na worry about my work problems , okay ? can you do that for your dad ? mattie : i guess we can make that deal . cane : oh . you 're gon na make a deal with me , huh ? you little operator . mattie : i 'll let you handle whatever 's going on , and i wo n't worry about it . cane : deal . mattie : as long as you take your own advice . cane : which is what ? mattie : the same thing you always tell me when i 'm about to have an academic meltdown . it 's not as bad as it seems , and it 'll look better in the morning . every time i say it , it turns out to be true . cane : i like that . i 'm gon na write that down , and i 'll keep it in my pocket , okay ? come here . come here . oh , baby , it 's gon na be okay . neil : you know , i was talking to lily last night , seeing the massive weight of this lawsuit hanging over her , just waiting to crush her if this thing goes the wrong way , you know ? maybe i was more reassuring than i should have been . a lot of factors go into a lawsuit in a case like this , especially if there 's no evidence . victoria : that 's why i 'm confident we 're gon na win . juliet 's story is absurd . no reasonable person would take her side . and cane would never propose an arrangement like this . it 's just not him . unless there are facts that i do n't have , in which case i 'm sure you would give them to me . right ? neil : i am not withholding any bombshells here . i 've seen cases like this . all you can do is walk in there armed with as much information as possible . the last thing you want is any surprises . victoria : i think it all boils down to this . juliet has some very compelling reasons to want to shake down brash & sassy . she 's disgruntled , she was fired , and she 's in debt , whereas there is no conceivable reason why cane would have done what she proposes he did . it 's that simple , and i think it 's being thrown out of the court as we speak . leslie : in cane ashby 's hotel room , miss helton surrendered her dignity and struck a devil 's deal with brash & sassy and its representative , cane ashby . when she was passed over a short time later for the full - time position of division manager for asia , something highly unusual happened . an entirely new position with lesser title and pay , but still full - time , was created and offered to my client the very same day . quid pro quo in action , your honor . but despite her outstanding job performance , she was still fired for another male superior 's error , just as cane ashby had been planning from the moment he 'd finished with her in that tokyo hotel room . michael : the only actual fact , your honor , in that strikingly creative story ms . shelby just told is that her client , juliet helton , was fired from brash & sassy . everything else , particularly the , uh , personal agenda and motivations ascribed to mr. ashby , is total conjecture . leslie : i maintain mr. ashby 's agenda . the removal of miss helton from the workplace was hardly private . we have a witness prepared to testify who heard mr. ashby tell my client to move back to tokyo . michael : nevertheless , the complaint is sexual harassment . and ms . shelby 's offered no proof that a sexual encounter ever occurred , much less any actionable proposal . leslie : oh , rest assured , mr. baldwin , i fully intend to present admissible evidence that will fully back up my client 's claim . i 'll begin immediately and continue until your honor 's ready to rule . judge hazen : i 'm prepared to rule now , counselors . zack : you really need to pull it together and stop the freak - out . the nice people here are gon na think you have a screw loose . tessa : answer my question . why 'd you follow me here ? zack : oh , save it for an angry ballad , okay ? i had no idea you ended up here , and i really do n't care . tessa : like i believe anything that comes out of your mouth . zack : look at me . i 'm an entirely different person , a respectable , young entrepreneur . a billion - dollar blue - chip company just backed my new project , and i never think about chicago . those years do n't even seem real to me . tessa : maybe for you . but some things are just too horrible to forget . zack : then fake it and move on . i have a real life now , and i do n't want you in it . tessa : and i 'm not in it . so let 's just agree this is the last conversation we 'll ever have . sharon ! hi . how are you ? sharon : i ca n't complain . but are you okay ? tessa : me ? yeah , i 'm great . sharon : really ? because it seemed like you were in a weirdly stressful conversation over there . do you know that guy ? reed : [ sighs ] [ cell phone chimes ] reed : [ sighs ] hey , mattie . um , it 's so cool that you 're here . mattie : hey . [ chuckles ] reed : i wanted to text you , but i did n't have your digits or chat handle or your name . [ chuckles ] mattie : i , uh , do n't give my personal information to strangers . reed : i thought we were friends , or at least becoming . mattie : i agree with the latter part of that sentence . reed : just the second ? mattie : what can i say ? i 'm a cautious girl . reed : that 's good . mattie : with a very strong dad and a jock for a brother . reed : [ chuckles ] okay , um , also good . it 's good to have people looking out for you . mattie : yeah . [ chuckles ] um , what about you ? reed : oh , my little sister practices karate , so i 'm all set . [ both chuckle ] juliet : okay , explain what would be so wrong with a cashier 's check dated this week , no public inquisition required . it 's a win / win . hilary : it 's a lose / lose , and here 's why . first , you will only get a fraction of what you deserve . juliet : i do n't need it to be huge . just enough to help me relocate , pay off my debts , get my life moving forward again . hilary : you do n't need to be a lawyer to know that you 've been used . you 've been taken advantage of in the most demeaning way . you suffered emotionally because of what cane did to you . and you deserve adequate compensation for your pain and your suffering . juliet : [ sighs ] i 'm just so tired of fighting . hilary : do n't , do n't . do n't you do that . i understand that you are tired , but you ca n't give up , okay ? not now , not when you are -- when you are this close . juliet : i 'm not giving up . i want brash & sassy to pay , but i still do n't get what 's so wrong with a settlement . then this would all be over . hilary : a settlement out of court , it 's a victory , yes . you were right , and cane was wrong , so victoria will have to open up her purse strings . juliet : hilary , i know all of that . hilary : but even though you win , not many people will see it that way . they will look at you taking a settlement meaning that you do n't have a case . the company , they just paid you off just to get rid of you . and you know what that makes you ? a shakedown artist . that means that you were just after the money . juliet : that is so unfair ! hilary : and it is untrue . so do you want brash & sassy to get a free pass , or do you want the truth to come out ? juliet : but once i pull the trigger , anything could go public . i ca n't count on any part of my life staying private . my reputation could end up permanently slimed . hilary : i understand that it 's a gamble , but i think that the reward , it justifies the risk . [ cell phone rings ] juliet : it 's leslie . the judge must have ruled . cane : is there any word ? victoria : no , nothing . michael said that they 'd resume the hearing first thing this morning . cane : it 's probably still going on . leslie 's in high attack mode . victoria : yeah , well , that may be true , but she does n't have a case . i predict this whole ordeal ends with a phone call from michael . michael , hey . is the hearing over ? cane : what did the judge say ? michael : he refuses to dismiss the suit . i 'm sorry . we 're going to trial . victoria : michael , how could you let this happen ? cane : [ sighs ] i ca n't believe the judge sided with juliet . michael : he did n't side with her . victoria : or us , obviously . michael : this was n't about taking sides . he 's not allowed to . he 's a judge . this was merely a formality to allow the case to move forward . victoria : yes , well , last night you thought he would throw it out . michael : not many of leslie 's cases are thrown out , and this morning i was reminded why she has this ... incredible ability to captivate judges and juries . she takes facts such that she has , sometimes none at all , and she weaves them into these expertly crafted stories that make them feel however it is she wants them to . she is a spellbinder . cane : juliet 's covered , and we 've got you . michael : if you would care to vent , go ahead . i have developed an incredibly thick skin . but , however , if you 'd let me continue , i was going to say that for this trial , leslie has to show evidence . she has already promised judge hazen she would . cane : how is that even possible ? michael : it is n't . victoria : because juliet 's allegations are all lies . cane : well , that 's not gon na stop her from accusing me of sexual harassment , and in hours , the world 's gon na believe her baseless accusations . michael : cane , cane , let 's focus on what 's gon na destroy this idiotic lawsuit -- no evidence . leslie may be an excellent attorney , but she does n't have magical powers . leslie : that might not be true , michael . if you and victoria want me to , i can make that big , harsh media spotlight on brash & sassy disappear . reed : thanks again for your number . um , i promise i wo n't call you all the time . mattie : wait , you want my number , but you wo n't call ? reed : not all the time . like , i wo n't hound you . i 'm not some stalker or something . mattie : [ chuckles ] okay , um , good to know . reed : so what is this waltzing matilda you put underneath your number ? mattie : it 's my personal handle . reed : oh , cool . does it have a meaning ? mattie : it 's a song . reed : that 's awesome . i do n't think i 've ever heard it . mattie : yeah , it 's australian . my dad 's originally from there . reed : no way . that 's really cool . mattie : my real name is matilda , but i do n't waltz . and heads up -- it 's mattie , never matilda . reed : got it . mattie : what are you doing ? reed : getting ready to learn waltzing matilda . sing it for me . mattie : [ chuckles ] not gon na happen . reed : fine . i 'll just learn it on my own time . maybe i 'll headline the open mic with it . [ laughs ] tessa : yeah , i do know that guy from chicago . uh , it 's the one i told noah about . sharon : the dating - app guy ? he 's the ex - boyfriend who had you so shaken up ? tessa : uh , he was never really my boyfriend . just a face from the past . i saw him , i was a little stunned . but seriously , it 's no big deal . sharon : really ? because noah said it seemed like you were afraid to be in the same city with him , almost as if you would pack your bags and go . tessa : well , noah 's sweet to worry . it 's nice to have someone look out for me . sharon : he 's like that . tessa : noah 's got nothing to be concerned about . scott : [ sighs ] abby : what 's this ? scott : caffé mocha . peace offering . abby : thank you . scott : you changed seats . abby : you know what ? who am i kidding ? do you know the hoops that i had to jump through to get my dad to sign off on my incubator project ? [ scoffs ] and you , you 've been here less than six months , and my dad basically hands you a gift - wrapped digital media company . so he 's made it very clear which child he wants sitting in his chair . oh , wait ! you 're not even his child . scott : abby , the hashtag thing only happened because of you , from your list of top potential media acquisitions . he picked your first choice . abby : is that supposed to make me feel better ? scott : yes ? abby : well , it 's not doing it for me , so can you please just go ? i ca n't even look at you right now . scott : abby , why are you mad at me ? were you hoping that your dad was eyeing digital media for a new place for you ? i mean , how does that even make sense ? abby : i was hoping that i could be involved in another way other than compiling lists like some intern in the research department . i thought maybe he 'd let me decide how i wanted to contribute , from building it from the ground up . scott : with respect , i 've spent my entire career preparing for this . you have zero experience . abby : that could n't be further from the truth . scott : what , then ? [ scoffs ] please tell me you 're not thinking of dredging up your naked heiress days . abby : yeah , i am , and i will . scott : that 's your media experience ? pop - up nakedness ? abby : much like you , scott , my nudity was a tool . scott : ah . abby : i was an activist . i staged protests . i brought awareness to the plight of thousands of animals . and it worked . unless you think suffering only counts when you can speak and walk upright . scott : no , and completely off point . abby : you know what ? go ahead . go ahead . laugh it up with my dad . take tequila shots . but i am going to prove to him my value when i make this company a fortune . scott : probably . but do n't you think the credit should go to the creators and the engineers of these startups , not their landlady ? abby : it 's called teamwork . a brilliant idea mixed with vision and investment . that makes a profitable reality . it sounds a lot more difficult than crossing out semicolons . do n't you think ? scott : fyi -- you 're referring to a copy editor . i 'm a news editor . and i 'm willing to bet that you and a semicolon are n't exactly on speaking terms . abby : [ scoffs ] my incubator is going to dominate your digital media company in success and revenue . semicolon , game on . victoria : so this is when the highway robbery begins . that 's why you 're here , is n't it ? leslie : it 's called negotiating a fair settlement . why put yourselves through the time and expenses of a trial when we can wrap this up cleanly and privately ? cane : you and i worked together at jabot . have you ever seen me behave like this with an employee ever ? leslie : sexual harassment usually takes place behind closed doors . that 's why so many women do n't come forward -- fear of not being believed . victoria : okay , well , i support all women who have the courage to speak up about something like that -- when they 're telling the truth . michael : just to be clear , how much are we talking about here ? victoria : no , michael , please . i already gave juliet a very generous severance package . [ laughs ] you 've got to be kidding . that 's more than she would earn in a decade working here . leslie : maybe next time you 'll have stronger protections in place for the women you employ . cane : leslie , hang on a second . please , please , please . believe me , she 's lying . she 's lying , okay ? i promise you she 's lying . leslie : discuss and get back to me . cane : [ sighs ] victoria : what do we do ? cane : it 's obvious what we do . you need to settle . scott : what a great idea . this is exactly what i needed today . hello ? sharon : what 's your professional stance on weird coincidences ? scott : oh , okay . i was n't expecting that . um , nothing ironclad . in general , i would say the weirder , the fishier . why do you ask ? sharon : well , abby 's new partner for the startup , zack , is the same guy who almost ran noah 's friend tessa out of town . scott : oh . you know , i see your weird coincidence and i raise you one more . abby was just now laying it on pretty thick about how much of the green stuff she was gon na be making from that exact same startup . but you think this guy could be trouble ? abby : i can not tell you how eager i am to launch our online dating app revolution . zack : especially now that we 're cleared for beta testing . abby : yeah , real - world users . how exciting . zack : a limited but very real pool of not - bots . abby : well , i 'm not a robot , and i 'm single . sign me up . it 's okay if i 'm part of the testing pool , yeah ? zack : it 's better than okay . in fact , why do n't we dive in together ? abby : hmm . my , my , my . this guy is definitely a cut above the usual online- dating suspects . [ laughs ] zack : and with one swipe , the concierge will set up your date . leslie : hey , neil . neil : hey , hey , leslie . thank you so much for joining me . you look great . leslie : thank you . your voicemail was a pleasant surprise . neil : yeah ? leslie : you know , i 'll amend . definitely pleasant , not so surprising . given the timing , i 'm sure this is n't a meeting about contributing to one of your foundations . neil : [ chuckles ] you 're funny . well , you know that we 're always accepting contributions , but no . that 's not what this is about . leslie : okay , listen , neil , i understand the allegations concerning your son- in - law are upsetting , but you know i 'm just doing my job , right ? it 's nothing personal . neil : yeah , well , when it comes to my family , it 's always personal . you know what a good relationship i have with cane , right ? and he 's very adamant that these charges are completely false . leslie : i respect your judgment and your commitment to family . but you know i 'm also bound by attorney / client privilege . neil : this i am well aware of . you ca n't talk about it . but i 'm just curious . how did you end up with this case ? leslie : it was a referral from hilary curtis . [ cell phone chimes ] leslie : excuse me . sharon : i only know zack as a customer at crimson lights . and he seemed charming and successful . tessa 's given me no reason to doubt that . she says that they barely know each other and noah 's simply exaggerating about her reaction to seeing him in genoa city for the first time . scott : yeah , but you 're not buying it . sharon : i only know what i saw today . tessa and zack were in what seemed like an intense conversation , though , mind you , i could n't hear them . scott : well , that 's not really much to go on . sharon : well , i also saw him with abby , and she seems -- she feels pretty solid about him . but , i mean , how dangerous can he be ? the guy makes a dating app for a living . scott : wait . abby 's cutting - edge , mega - million - dollar project is a dating app ? [ laughs ] sharon : the only reason why i 'm butting into this is out of concern for my son . if the problem is n't zack , then it 's tessa , and i want to be supportive of my son 's relationship . scott : but you think something 's off with that girl . sharon : it 's a mother 's intuition . scott : a mother with bad vibes about the women her adult son chooses to date . now , why does that sound so familiar ? sharon : i 'm just looking out for my son . please do n't bring lauren into this . scott : all right . abby : so , why not sample our product with the guy who knows it best . that 's what you 're trying to say , right ? zack : that seems like the logical choice . ca n't hurt to find out if the creator of this app is a halfway decent date . abby : okay , then . let 's swipe . [ both laugh ] leslie : thanks for lunch , neil . it 's always good to see you . neil : always good to see you , too . hey . we 'll talk soon , all right ? leslie : yep . neil : bye . hey . how 'd you get in the middle of all this ? hilary : middle of what , neil ? neil : do n't play me . i know that you hooked up leslie with juliet . hilary : so ? neil : so ... when are you gon na stop trying to tear my family apart ? cane : if leslie has no evidence , the judge should 've dismissed the case . michael : all right , listen to me . as i said , she is a spellbinder . leslie will make sure that you guys have another scandal on your hands . cane : all the more reason to settle . victoria : oh , really ? do you think it 's worth that amount right there ? do you ? cane : oh , my god . they 're both out of their minds . michael : all right , of course she 's gon na come out strong . let me talk to leslie . i think i can put a healthy dent in this . victoria : then what , michael ? what about the public 's perception ? this brand is gon na be damaged beyond repair , and i am not gon na let this company become a target for future blackmail from the next employee who gets fired or laid off . i 'm not gon na let that happen . they want to battle ? fine . we 'll fight , and we 'll win . i 'm sorry , cane . i 'm sorry that you and your family are put in the middle of this , but we 're gon na be redeemed . cane : i need to go and be with my family . excuse me . victoria : all right , let 's discuss our options . michael : i can file a motion to expedite discovery , force leslie 's hand . she claims to have a strong case . we 'll force her to present it . victoria : michael , it 's imperative that we keep this very quiet and make as little noise as possible moving forward . michael : i have to say , uh , you sounded a lot like your father just now . victoria : well , if that 's what it takes . [ both laugh ] mattie : wow . you really did just learn waltzing matilda . reed : yeah . mattie : [ chuckles ] reed : actually , i kind of downloaded it , so i guess i cheated . but , uh , do you know all these amazing musicians covered it , like tom waits and johnny cash ? mattie : wilf carter , burl ives . jimmie rogers even had a number - one hit with it in 1959 . reed : yeah , all those guys . you know , the retro theater over by the university 's having a cult film festival if you want to go sometime . charlie : hey , where you been ? i 've been looking all over for you . mattie : oh , um , reed , this is charlie . charlie : what ? what are you doing hanging out with indie poser dude ? mattie : wait , you two know each other ? reed : yeah , i know him ! this is the jerk i caught making out with my ex- girlfriend ! h - how do you know him ? ! charlie : dude , if zoey was your girl , she sure was n't advertising it . mattie : oh , my god . is reed the one that you were talking about at dinner the other night , the one that you almost got into a fight with ? charlie : yeah . and by the way , zoey does n't miss you one bit . reed : like i care . what -- what were you doing having dinner with this sweat sock ? charlie : we do n't have time for this . i got to drop you off at home before practice . reed : what is he doing dropping you off at home ? what -- what am i missing ? mattie : sorry , reed . i , um , i need to go with him . reed : no , you do n't . i could give you a ride . mattie : no , um ... charlie is my twin brother . scott : i admit , i was a little thrown by my mom 's reaction to seeing us together . i felt like i was in high school all over again . sharon : yeah , i think i made noah feel the same way in front of you . scott : must be a mom thing . but if i could just , you know , offer up one piece of advice ? trust your son to make his own decisions . sharon : i think that 's very good advice . scott : [ chuckles ] but back to us and how you made my unscheduled homecoming so much more than i could have ever expected . sharon : well , that 's mutual . you 've made the past few months so much better than i could have ever imagined . scott : hey . sharon : and for that , you deserve a home - cooked dinner . scott : oh . sharon : i 'm pretty sure mariah 's spending the night at devon 's , and faith is with her dad this week . scott : so , apart from newman security , we 'll have the whole place to ourselves ? sharon : if you 're down with that . scott : yeah . entirely . sharon : well , then it looks like we have every direction covered . hilary : juliet and i happen to be friends . she asked me if i knew any good lawyers , and i thought of leslie . neil : hilary , i know you 're really enjoying this , but is this what you really want ? hilary : okay , save the vitriol for your son - in - law . i know that cane might have the perfect - husband routine down cold , but that is so far from the truth . open your eyes , neil . michael : trust me . i will dig up everything i can on miss juliet helton . victoria : i do not care how private or shameful it is . i will do anything to get to the truth , michael . michael : [ chuckles ] i knew there was a reason we always got along so well . oh . there was something else leslie revealed in chambers today that you neglected to tell me . victoria : and what is that ? michael : cane . he almost torched your asian deal . juliet salvaged it ? victoria : michael , i had no idea . this is the first i 'm hearing of it . [ knock on door ] juliet : one second ! | reed and mattie are having a great time talking and he asks her out to a movie , but then charlie arrives and reed is surprised to find out that the guy that took zoey from him is mattie 's brother . abby challenges scott by telling him that his dating app will make more money than his digital magazine . scott accepts her challenge and the battle begins to see which one of their projects can make the most money for the company . scott tries to warn abby not to go out on a date with zach , but she says it is n't a date ; they are just testing the dating app . tessa confronts zach about their past in chicago , and he tells her that he is a legitimate businessman now and she should forget about their past in chicago and get on with her life . tessa decides to take zach 's advice and tells noah she has decided not to leave genoa city . sharon tells scott she thinks tessa and zach share a past , and scott advises her to let her son make his own decisions . sharon invites scott to her house for a home - cooked meal , and he thinks that is a wonderful idea . the judge decides there is enough evidence for juliet 's lawsuit against brash and sassy to go to court . victoria refuses to settle the lawsuit and asks michael to dig up dirt on juliet . cane goes to juliet 's hotel room and tells her they need to talk about the lawsuit . | <s>[INST] [ knock on door ] scott : pardon the interruption , but your gatekeeper 's away from her post , and i have a ton of ideas i want to run by you , if that 's all right . abby : [ chuckles ] scott ! hi . wonderful to see you , too . yeah , my dad 's in a business meeting , so all those ideas of yours will have to wait . unless you want to run them by me first . scott : pass , but thanks . abby : wait ! not so fast . please . scott : oh , can i help you with something ? abby : actually , yes . thank you so much for asking . yes , here is a list of companies . it 's about a dozen . i need some research done on them . very easy , very basic , but very urgent . scott : of course it is . abby : well , i 'd have my intern do it , but she 's only allowed to work eight hours a day . scott : then you might want to alert the top , uh , business schools about the unpaid labor shortage , 'cause i wo n't be pitching in on that or any of your other little projects . neil : afraid i do not have an appointment . victoria : oh ! oh , neil , it 's so good to see you . neil : it 's good to see you , too . you look great . victoria : thank you . and i mean that . it 's not just because i know the only reason you 're here is because you heard about the lawsuit . neil : lily told me what 's up , and , um , i 've been trying to reassure her . victoria : as any good dad would . neil : thanks . i wanted to check in with you before i blow much more sunshine in that direction . victoria : well , i 'm sure that lily told you that michael baldwin is representing us . neil : yes , and you are in excellent hands . victoria : of course . and at this moment , he 's petitioning the judge to throw out the entire suit . neil : would n't that be nice . victoria : yes , and warranted . michael said that his arguments were well- received yesterday , and he 's cautiously optimistic , and so am i . neil : then for the moment , count me in . especially when the alternative is watching my family get torn to pieces . mattie : dad , are you okay ? cane : yeah , baby . of course i am . mattie : i know something 's wrong . cane : okay . and how do you know that ? mattie : because every time i walk into a room when you and mom are talking , you both immediately change the subject and paint these huge smiles on your face . and i 've never seen anyone stare that intently at a cup of coffee . cane : i 'm just waiting for it to cool down . mattie : dad , it 's empty . cane : hey , um , you never told me about your , uh , evening at the underground . how 'd that go ? mattie : and there it is ! do n't do that , dad ! cane : what am i doing ? mattie : changing the subject . the underground was cool , but we were talking about you . are you and mom really okay ? cane : yeah , baby , we 're okay . mattie : because i think something 's off . you know you can tell me , right ? hilary : juliet , what are you doing here ? juliet : i just checked in . hilary : i thought that leslie told you to keep a low profile until the trial . juliet : she did , but then she called me last night and said to come back . apparently things have accelerated . hilary : as in you might go to court ? juliet : maybe . maybe not . hilary : maybe not ? meaning that you might back out of this ? why ? why did n't you call me ? juliet : i was driving all night . there was n't really any time . but leslie did say we might be in a position to settle ... for a very big check . hilary : that is unacceptable , juliet . you ca n't settle , not now . i wo n't let you . leslie : your honor , despite mr. baldwin 's entreaties to the contrary , i assure you my client 's complaint against brash & sassy is quite legitimate . it 's true at the time of the sexual harassment -- michael : please , your honor . leslie : i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . alleged sexual harassment , my client 's employment by the company was as an independent contractor . however , this , in no way , lessens the crucial role miss juliet helton played in tokyo on behalf of brash & sassy . she was responsible for securing the firm 's partnership with a top asian distributor , pulling it from the jaws of disaster after mr. ashby 's behavior thoroughly botched the deal . miss helton is a highly respected , young businesswoman who , quite logically , hoped her contribution to such a vital international undertaking would lead to an offer of full - time employment . now , it 's correct to say mr. ashby never claimed miss helton 's hypothetical hiring would be his decision , but it was in his power to eradicate any chance of brash & sassy hiring miss helton based on his recommendation or lack thereof to miss newman . thus he was able to manipulate miss helton by promising her his endorsement in exchange for sexual favors . michael : may i remind your honor and opposing counsel that there 's no proof that this alleged quid pro quo was ever offered by mr. ashby or indeed ever existed anywhere except in miss helton 's mind ? judge hazen : and may i remind you , mr. baldwin , that you 've already stated your objections to this case , and i would appreciate you offering the same courtesy to plaintiff 's counsel . leslie : thank you , your honor . once upon a time abby : so was that your childish way of telling me that you quit ? scott : no and no . abby : okay , meaning what ? i do n't have time for riddles . scott : or the skill required to solve them . abby : [ chuckles ] scott : so i 'll clarify . no , i was n't being childish , and no , i have n't quit . abby : so my dad fired you ? or laid you off or , um , put an end to your verbal contract . however he wanted to phrase it to spare your enormous yet oh - so fragile ego . scott : victor is n't overly concerned with sparing anyone 's ego . abby : except maybe his own . and maybe he thought it was better to cut you off now before he had to admit to everyone that he grossly overestimated your sustainability here in the business world . that 's to put it a kind way . scott : if that 's what kindness looks like around here , then yeah , he really messed up bringing me in . abby : okay , let 's play the whole sensitive card . you do n't have the stamina to make it here in corporate life . you 're better for flitting around the globe . scott : flitting ? abby : mm - hmm . scott : someone got a thesaurus for christmas . abby : or hiding behind your keyboard or blogging or whatever you do . that 's your thing , right ? scott : again , your kindness is overwhelming , and i 'd love to just continue yakking with you . but i 'd rather focus on my new promotion that was handed to me by victor . oh , no ! daddy did n't mention that to you ? oh . abby : i guess he did n't find it very newsworthy . scott : then i 'm happy that i can be the one to share it with you that i 'm officially now in charge of newman 's recently acquired digital news company . abby : what are you talking about ? scott : my new job . publisher and editor - in - chief of hashtag . abby : [ sighs ] sharon : here you go . sorry for the wait . sometimes that machine 's a little temperamental . zack : oh , no problem at all . thanks . sharon : oh , you 're abby newman 's friend . zack : well , someday maybe , but right now we 're just business partners . zack . sharon : i thought i recognized you . you two are working on that dating app . how 's it going ? zack : well , i know you were skeptical about the whole thing , but it 's actually coming along nicely . helps when you partner with a newman . sharon : yeah , that can open a lot of doors . zack : but i 've already said too much . abby will be here any minute , and she 's very strict about confidentiality . sharon : did n't you bring the project to her ? zack : ca n't say . sharon : do n't worry . i got you . tessa : what are you doing in genoa city ? what do you want from me ? ! cane : all right , sweetheart , i love you 're concerned , okay , but there 's nothing to worry about . mattie : maybe i should decide that for myself . cane : look at you all grown up , huh ? okay . i 'll tell you . mattie : finally . cane : it 's nothing . it 's nothing . it 's just boring work stuff . mattie : but what kind of stuff ? are your jobs on the line ? cane : no , no , no , sweetie . no , everything 's fine . it 's just , you know , just office politics . you know , who 's the boss of who and ... mattie : whom . but what 's gon na happen ? cane : i do n't know . it 'll blow over . and , uh , everything will be fine , and , you know ... but listen , i want you to promise me that you 're not gon na worry about my work problems , okay ? can you do that for your dad ? mattie : i guess we can make that deal . cane : oh . you 're gon na make a deal with me , huh ? you little operator . mattie : i 'll let you handle whatever 's going on , and i wo n't worry about it . cane : deal . mattie : as long as you take your own advice . cane : which is what ? mattie : the same thing you always tell me when i 'm about to have an academic meltdown . it 's not as bad as it seems , and it 'll look better in the morning . every time i say it , it turns out to be true . cane : i like that . i 'm gon na write that down , and i 'll keep it in my pocket , okay ? come here . come here . oh , baby , it 's gon na be okay . neil : you know , i was talking to lily last night , seeing the massive weight of this lawsuit hanging over her , just waiting to crush her if this thing goes the wrong way , you know ? maybe i was more reassuring than i should have been . a lot of factors go into a lawsuit in a case like this , especially if there 's no evidence . victoria : that 's why i 'm confident we 're gon na win . juliet 's story is absurd . no reasonable person would take her side . and cane would never propose an arrangement like this . it 's just not him . unless there are facts that i do n't have , in which case i 'm sure you would give them to me . right ? neil : i am not withholding any bombshells here . i 've seen cases like this . all you can do is walk in there armed with as much information as possible . the last thing you want is any surprises . victoria : i think it all boils down to this . juliet has some very compelling reasons to want to shake down brash & sassy . she 's disgruntled , she was fired , and she 's in debt , whereas there is no conceivable reason why cane would have done what she proposes he did . it 's that simple , and i think it 's being thrown out of the court as we speak . leslie : in cane ashby 's hotel room , miss helton surrendered her dignity and struck a devil 's deal with brash & sassy and its representative , cane ashby . when she was passed over a short time later for the full - time position of division manager for asia , something highly unusual happened . an entirely new position with lesser title and pay , but still full - time , was created and offered to my client the very same day . quid pro quo in action , your honor . but despite her outstanding job performance , she was still fired for another male superior 's error , just as cane ashby had been planning from the moment he 'd finished with her in that tokyo hotel room . michael : the only actual fact , your honor , in that strikingly creative story ms . shelby just told is that her client , juliet helton , was fired from brash & sassy . everything else , particularly the , uh , personal agenda and motivations ascribed to mr. ashby , is total conjecture . leslie : i maintain mr. ashby 's agenda . the removal of miss helton from the workplace was hardly private . we have a witness prepared to testify who heard mr. ashby tell my client to move back to tokyo . michael : nevertheless , the complaint is sexual harassment . and ms . shelby 's offered no proof that a sexual encounter ever occurred , much less any actionable proposal . leslie : oh , rest assured , mr. baldwin , i fully intend to present admissible evidence that will fully back up my client 's claim . i 'll begin immediately and continue until your honor 's ready to rule . judge hazen : i 'm prepared to rule now , counselors . zack : you really need to pull it together and stop the freak - out . the nice people here are gon na think you have a screw loose . tessa : answer my question . why 'd you follow me here ? zack : oh , save it for an angry ballad , okay ? i had no idea you ended up here , and i really do n't care . tessa : like i believe anything that comes out of your mouth . zack : look at me . i 'm an entirely different person , a respectable , young entrepreneur . a billion - dollar blue - chip company just backed my new project , and i never think about chicago . those years do n't even seem real to me . tessa : maybe for you . but some things are just too horrible to forget . zack : then fake it and move on . i have a real life now , and i do n't want you in it . tessa : and i 'm not in it . so let 's just agree this is the last conversation we 'll ever have . sharon ! hi . how are you ? sharon : i ca n't complain . but are you okay ? tessa : me ? yeah , i 'm great . sharon : really ? because it seemed like you were in a weirdly stressful conversation over there . do you know that guy ? reed : [ sighs ] [ cell phone chimes ] reed : [ sighs ] hey , mattie . um , it 's so cool that you 're here . mattie : hey . [ chuckles ] reed : i wanted to text you , but i did n't have your digits or chat handle or your name . [ chuckles ] mattie : i , uh , do n't give my personal information to strangers . reed : i thought we were friends , or at least becoming . mattie : i agree with the latter part of that sentence . reed : just the second ? mattie : what can i say ? i 'm a cautious girl . reed : that 's good . mattie : with a very strong dad and a jock for a brother . reed : [ chuckles ] okay , um , also good . it 's good to have people looking out for you . mattie : yeah . [ chuckles ] um , what about you ? reed : oh , my little sister practices karate , so i 'm all set . [ both chuckle ] juliet : okay , explain what would be so wrong with a cashier 's check dated this week , no public inquisition required . it 's a win / win . hilary : it 's a lose / lose , and here 's why . first , you will only get a fraction of what you deserve . juliet : i do n't need it to be huge . just enough to help me relocate , pay off my debts , get my life moving forward again . hilary : you do n't need to be a lawyer to know that you 've been used . you 've been taken advantage of in the most demeaning way . you suffered emotionally because of what cane did to you . and you deserve adequate compensation for your pain and your suffering . juliet : [ sighs ] i 'm just so tired of fighting . hilary : do n't , do n't . do n't you do that . i understand that you are tired , but you ca n't give up , okay ? not now , not when you are -- when you are this close . juliet : i 'm not giving up . i want brash & sassy to pay , but i still do n't get what 's so wrong with a settlement . then this would all be over . hilary : a settlement out of court , it 's a victory , yes . you were right , and cane was wrong , so victoria will have to open up her purse strings . juliet : hilary , i know all of that . hilary : but even though you win , not many people will see it that way . they will look at you taking a settlement meaning that you do n't have a case . the company , they just paid you off just to get rid of you . and you know what that makes you ? a shakedown artist . that means that you were just after the money . juliet : that is so unfair ! hilary : and it is untrue . so do you want brash & sassy to get a free pass , or do you want the truth to come out ? juliet : but once i pull the trigger , anything could go public . i ca n't count on any part of my life staying private . my reputation could end up permanently slimed . hilary : i understand that it 's a gamble , but i think that the reward , it justifies the risk . [ cell phone rings ] juliet : it 's leslie . the judge must have ruled . cane : is there any word ? victoria : no , nothing . michael said that they 'd resume the hearing first thing this morning . cane : it 's probably still going on . leslie 's in high attack mode . victoria : yeah , well , that may be true , but she does n't have a case . i predict this whole ordeal ends with a phone call from michael . michael , hey . is the hearing over ? cane : what did the judge say ? michael : he refuses to dismiss the suit . i 'm sorry . we 're going to trial . victoria : michael , how could you let this happen ? cane : [ sighs ] i ca n't believe the judge sided with juliet . michael : he did n't side with her . victoria : or us , obviously . michael : this was n't about taking sides . he 's not allowed to . he 's a judge . this was merely a formality to allow the case to move forward . victoria : yes , well , last night you thought he would throw it out . michael : not many of leslie 's cases are thrown out , and this morning i was reminded why she has this ... incredible ability to captivate judges and juries . she takes facts such that she has , sometimes none at all , and she weaves them into these expertly crafted stories that make them feel however it is she wants them to . she is a spellbinder . cane : juliet 's covered , and we 've got you . michael : if you would care to vent , go ahead . i have developed an incredibly thick skin . but , however , if you 'd let me continue , i was going to say that for this trial , leslie has to show evidence . she has already promised judge hazen she would . cane : how is that even possible ? michael : it is n't . victoria : because juliet 's allegations are all lies . cane : well , that 's not gon na stop her from accusing me of sexual harassment , and in hours , the world 's gon na believe her baseless accusations . michael : cane , cane , let 's focus on what 's gon na destroy this idiotic lawsuit -- no evidence . leslie may be an excellent attorney , but she does n't have magical powers . leslie : that might not be true , michael . if you and victoria want me to , i can make that big , harsh media spotlight on brash & sassy disappear . reed : thanks again for your number . um , i promise i wo n't call you all the time . mattie : wait , you want my number , but you wo n't call ? reed : not all the time . like , i wo n't hound you . i 'm not some stalker or something . mattie : [ chuckles ] okay , um , good to know . reed : so what is this waltzing matilda you put underneath your number ? mattie : it 's my personal handle . reed : oh , cool . does it have a meaning ? mattie : it 's a song . reed : that 's awesome . i do n't think i 've ever heard it . mattie : yeah , it 's australian . my dad 's originally from there . reed : no way . that 's really cool . mattie : my real name is matilda , but i do n't waltz . and heads up -- it 's mattie , never matilda . reed : got it . mattie : what are you doing ? reed : getting ready to learn waltzing matilda . sing it for me . mattie : [ chuckles ] not gon na happen . reed : fine . i 'll just learn it on my own time . maybe i 'll headline the open mic with it . [ laughs ] tessa : yeah , i do know that guy from chicago . uh , it 's the one i told noah about . sharon : the dating - app guy ? he 's the ex - boyfriend who had you so shaken up ? tessa : uh , he was never really my boyfriend . just a face from the past . i saw him , i was a little stunned . but seriously , it 's no big deal . sharon : really ? because noah said it seemed like you were afraid to be in the same city with him , almost as if you would pack your bags and go . tessa : well , noah 's sweet to worry . it 's nice to have someone look out for me . sharon : he 's like that . tessa : noah 's got nothing to be concerned about . scott : [ sighs ] abby : what 's this ? scott : caffé mocha . peace offering . abby : thank you . scott : you changed seats . abby : you know what ? who am i kidding ? do you know the hoops that i had to jump through to get my dad to sign off on my incubator project ? [ scoffs ] and you , you 've been here less than six months , and my dad basically hands you a gift - wrapped digital media company . so he 's made it very clear which child he wants sitting in his chair . oh , wait ! you 're not even his child . scott : abby , the hashtag thing only happened because of you , from your list of top potential media acquisitions . he picked your first choice . abby : is that supposed to make me feel better ? scott : yes ? abby : well , it 's not doing it for me , so can you please just go ? i ca n't even look at you right now . scott : abby , why are you mad at me ? were you hoping that your dad was eyeing digital media for a new place for you ? i mean , how does that even make sense ? abby : i was hoping that i could be involved in another way other than compiling lists like some intern in the research department . i thought maybe he 'd let me decide how i wanted to contribute , from building it from the ground up . scott : with respect , i 've spent my entire career preparing for this . you have zero experience . abby : that could n't be further from the truth . scott : what , then ? [ scoffs ] please tell me you 're not thinking of dredging up your naked heiress days . abby : yeah , i am , and i will . scott : that 's your media experience ? pop - up nakedness ? abby : much like you , scott , my nudity was a tool . scott : ah . abby : i was an activist . i staged protests . i brought awareness to the plight of thousands of animals . and it worked . unless you think suffering only counts when you can speak and walk upright . scott : no , and completely off point . abby : you know what ? go ahead . go ahead . laugh it up with my dad . take tequila shots . but i am going to prove to him my value when i make this company a fortune . scott : probably . but do n't you think the credit should go to the creators and the engineers of these startups , not their landlady ? abby : it 's called teamwork . a brilliant idea mixed with vision and investment . that makes a profitable reality . it sounds a lot more difficult than crossing out semicolons . do n't you think ? scott : fyi -- you 're referring to a copy editor . i 'm a news editor . and i 'm willing to bet that you and a semicolon are n't exactly on speaking terms . abby : [ scoffs ] my incubator is going to dominate your digital media company in success and revenue . semicolon , game on . victoria : so this is when the highway robbery begins . that 's why you 're here , is n't it ? leslie : it 's called negotiating a fair settlement . why put yourselves through the time and expenses of a trial when we can wrap this up cleanly and privately ? cane : you and i worked together at jabot . have you ever seen me behave like this with an employee ever ? leslie : sexual harassment usually takes place behind closed doors . that 's why so many women do n't come forward -- fear of not being believed . victoria : okay , well , i support all women who have the courage to speak up about something like that -- when they 're telling the truth . michael : just to be clear , how much are we talking about here ? victoria : no , michael , please . i already gave juliet a very generous severance package . [ laughs ] you 've got to be kidding . that 's more than she would earn in a decade working here . leslie : maybe next time you 'll have stronger protections in place for the women you employ . cane : leslie , hang on a second . please , please , please . believe me , she 's lying . she 's lying , okay ? i promise you she 's lying . leslie : discuss and get back to me . cane : [ sighs ] victoria : what do we do ? cane : it 's obvious what we do . you need to settle . scott : what a great idea . this is exactly what i needed today . hello ? sharon : what 's your professional stance on weird coincidences ? scott : oh , okay . i was n't expecting that . um , nothing ironclad . in general , i would say the weirder , the fishier . why do you ask ? sharon : well , abby 's new partner for the startup , zack , is the same guy who almost ran noah 's friend tessa out of town . scott : oh . you know , i see your weird coincidence and i raise you one more . abby was just now laying it on pretty thick about how much of the green stuff she was gon na be making from that exact same startup . but you think this guy could be trouble ? abby : i can not tell you how eager i am to launch our online dating app revolution . zack : especially now that we 're cleared for beta testing . abby : yeah , real - world users . how exciting . zack : a limited but very real pool of not - bots . abby : well , i 'm not a robot , and i 'm single . sign me up . it 's okay if i 'm part of the testing pool , yeah ? zack : it 's better than okay . in fact , why do n't we dive in together ? abby : hmm . my , my , my . this guy is definitely a cut above the usual online- dating suspects . [ laughs ] zack : and with one swipe , the concierge will set up your date . leslie : hey , neil . neil : hey , hey , leslie . thank you so much for joining me . you look great . leslie : thank you . your voicemail was a pleasant surprise . neil : yeah ? leslie : you know , i 'll amend . definitely pleasant , not so surprising . given the timing , i 'm sure this is n't a meeting about contributing to one of your foundations . neil : [ chuckles ] you 're funny . well , you know that we 're always accepting contributions , but no . that 's not what this is about . leslie : okay , listen , neil , i understand the allegations concerning your son- in - law are upsetting , but you know i 'm just doing my job , right ? it 's nothing personal . neil : yeah , well , when it comes to my family , it 's always personal . you know what a good relationship i have with cane , right ? and he 's very adamant that these charges are completely false . leslie : i respect your judgment and your commitment to family . but you know i 'm also bound by attorney / client privilege . neil : this i am well aware of . you ca n't talk about it . but i 'm just curious . how did you end up with this case ? leslie : it was a referral from hilary curtis . [ cell phone chimes ] leslie : excuse me . sharon : i only know zack as a customer at crimson lights . and he seemed charming and successful . tessa 's given me no reason to doubt that . she says that they barely know each other and noah 's simply exaggerating about her reaction to seeing him in genoa city for the first time . scott : yeah , but you 're not buying it . sharon : i only know what i saw today . tessa and zack were in what seemed like an intense conversation , though , mind you , i could n't hear them . scott : well , that 's not really much to go on . sharon : well , i also saw him with abby , and she seems -- she feels pretty solid about him . but , i mean , how dangerous can he be ? the guy makes a dating app for a living . scott : wait . abby 's cutting - edge , mega - million - dollar project is a dating app ? [ laughs ] sharon : the only reason why i 'm butting into this is out of concern for my son . if the problem is n't zack , then it 's tessa , and i want to be supportive of my son 's relationship . scott : but you think something 's off with that girl . sharon : it 's a mother 's intuition . scott : a mother with bad vibes about the women her adult son chooses to date . now , why does that sound so familiar ? sharon : i 'm just looking out for my son . please do n't bring lauren into this . scott : all right . abby : so , why not sample our product with the guy who knows it best . that 's what you 're trying to say , right ? zack : that seems like the logical choice . ca n't hurt to find out if the creator of this app is a halfway decent date . abby : okay , then . let 's swipe .

( stammers ) are you forgetting that she seduced your husband away from you ? and after seducing eric , then she went after your son ridge . and then she went after your other son thorne . so why do you think that would stop her from going after your grandson , really ? i do n't know why you ca n't see what 's right in front of you , stephanie . [ scene_break ] jackie : ( sighs ) whip : the vanity line -- well , i - i think it 's -- i think it 's hot . jackie : mm . aggie : `` hot `` might not be the best choice of words . listen , i know i do n't get a vote , but i do n't mind it . jackie : well , i 'm not sure that i like what it says about me -- i mean , true or not -- although , it does have the virtue of implicitly explaining why i can only seem to design clothes that look good on me . whip : okay , well , sleep on it , okay ? 'cause that 's about all the genius that i can muster at this point . ( chuckles ) aggie : where are you off to ? whip : uh , i - i 've got a little family matter that i have to attend to with , uh , with taylor . jackie : well , i encourage a balance between work and home life , so get out of here . whip : thanks . aggie : if you do n't mind me saying so , do n't encourage him too much . [ scene_break ] taylor : stephanie , how can you not remember the rage that she has stirred up inside of you ? she broke up your marriage to eric . and then she went after your sons . i - i can remember times that you were ready to choke her with your bare hands . stephanie : ( sighs ) honey , these are different times . she has what she wants -- ridge . taylor : that 's right now . we do n't know how she 'll feel later . stephanie : you know , sometimes , when people finally get what it is that they really want , it 's a good thing . is whip confident about you ? taylor : what 's that supposed to mean ? stephanie : well , i 'm just trying to understand why ridge would ... question why he would take that photograph . brooke : maybe it 's something to do with you running to ridge a little too often . taylor : ( scoffs ) whip could n't have even taken that picture . brooke : or maybe it 's something to do with you sharing intimate details of your marital life with my husband , and that makes your husband very jealous . stephanie : uh , whip was at the men 's showing , was n't he ? taylor : yes , he was sitting right beside me . stephanie : all evening ?

[ scene_break ] nick : you know , i 've already been a best man once . owen : well , i hear that it 's not very hard to pick up . nick : it was at my mother and father 's wedding , my biological father . owen : massimo . yeah , jackie talks about him sometimes . nick : so i think that disqualifies me from standing up for you . owen : look , i do n't think there are any requirements about it . nick : well , i think there should be , do n't you ? what 's best about being a best man for just anybody ? the first time for me , it was d.n.a . the second time , it would be for a man who ruined my marriage . owen : look , i do n't -- i do n't have any illusions about being forgiven for what happened between bridget and me . but i kind of thought that you and i were okay now . nick : no , no . we 're okay . you kept your promise to love my mother , and all the bad things i thought were gon na happen did n't . as far as the bridget thing goes , i just think we ought to just leave it where it lies right now . so if you want to surprise my mother with this second wedding , i support it . you can actually use my house if you 'd like . owen : well , that 's very generous . thank you . nick : but there 's a game on tonight i want to see , so i wo n't be there . aggie : whip thinks he has a campaign for the new line . nick : you ever heard of anything sappier than two people wanting to redo their wedding vows ? aggie : who ? nick : it 's like saying , `` compliance did n't work the first time , so this time around , we 're gon na do it in front of god and all of these witnesses , and maybe it 'll stick . `` aggie : ( chuckles ) if it makes people feel good about themselves and their relationships , what 's the harm ? we love our little ceremonies and rituals . you know , it 's like you can feel like an ordinary slob in your everyday life , and then love comes along , and it just elevates everything . so ... these people that are renewing their vows , is it anyone we know ?

the point is , if i do n't let paul walk off into the sunset , i could be in danger . diane : how ? isabella : i told you how angry he was . he lost it . and christine actually attacked me . diane : you 're joking . isabella : all because i would n't tell her where paul was . diane : okay , wait a second . so you 're saying that if you do n't set paul free , what , they 'll both go berserk and come after you like freddy krueger ? isabella : you know what ? you would n't be making fun if it was that blonde bitch 's hands around your neck . diane : so you honestly believe that you 're in danger ? isabella : yes , i do , and once christine realizes i 'm not gon na turn paul over to her on a silver platter so they can remarry and crank out babies and live happily ever after ... this is why i need s strategy , a way to protect myself . diane : isabella , i know both those people . one of them is a detective . the other 's an attorney . they deal with the law . there is no way they 're a serious threat ! isabella : fine . do youanant proof ?

jill : the doctor said shshe had a chance . did n't say it was a very good chance . charlotte : oh . i did n't tell you i have n't touched a drop . jill : what ? you 've stayed on the wagon all this time ? charlotte : yes , i have . jill : oh , mother , i am so proud of you . you , uh , you do n't mind if i call you that , do you ? charlotte : oh , no . it 's music to my ears , sweetheart . billy : no , dad , we 've thought about it , and we 've talked about it . mac 's grandma would want us to go ahead . john : billy , you 're talking about the woman as if she 's dead . i mean , give her a chance to recover . billy : dad , i hear you . that 's one way of doing it , but we 've decided to do it our way . that means we 're gon na go ahead . john : billy , billy , always concerned about doing it `` your way . `` have you ever stopped for a moment and considered whether it makes sense or not ? billy : maybe you 're right , dad , but this is how it 's gon na be . no offense . john : ( sighs ) billy : has my mom come ? ? john : she 's in there . billy : great . i want to talk to her . john : just a minute . she 's with someone . billy : yeah , who ? john : the woman she believes is her birth mother . mac : the way you say that , sounds like you do n't believe it . john : i don't . billy : why not ? mom told me it was a for se e thing . john : oh , she thinks it is , but it 's a lie . billy : are you saying this woman is taking advantage on purpose ? john : well , if there 's another explanation , i do n't know what it is . mac : are we going to meet her ? diane : what i say is we should n't even be having this conversation . isabella : why not ? diane : because setting that fire was a crime , isabella , a felony , a prison offense . and what , you want me to give you tips on how to go about it ? isabella : wait , you know what , diane ? you 're just getting all worked up about this . diane : for all i know , even talking about this could be considered a conspiracy . isabella : what , do you think my apartment 's bugged , for god 's sakes ? it 's you and me . talk to me . diane : no . i refuse to discuss this any further . isabella : you know , i do n't know why you 're freaking out like this . diane : when you said you wanted to get even with paul and christine , i did n't realize you were talking violence . you 're scaring me . isabella : give me a break . you think i want your help to murder them and bury the bodies ? diane : how should i know what insane ideas are going through your head ? isabella : no , the truth is i 'm looking for a way to defend myself . i have a right , do n't you think ? michael : you 're kidding me , right ? he 's not moving in ? chris : paul needed a place to stay . paul : since i do n't have a home at the moment , for reasons i 'm sure you 're all too aware -- michael : so tnn this is temporary , right ? you 're not back together . paul : what business is that of yours ? chris : why do n't you just leave ? michael : do n't let him draw you in again . you know he ca n't be trusted . you know -- chris : how dare you talk to me about trust . if any mistakes were made , they were mine for ever believing in you . paul : you know , i 've been waiting a long time to prove what a scum you are to chris , but you 've done it for me . michael : tell it to the wall . paul : you 're not going anywhere , baldwin , not until i 'm finished . lily : you and j.t . broke up ?

[ scene_break ] aggie : wow , that is , uh , some story . oliver : i know . it sounds pretty unbelievable , but i swear it 's the truth . aggie : i - i can kind of see how you might have thought that you were with hope . oliver : i did . i did . i -- honestly , right ? i never even thought for one second . aggie : okay , but what about -- what about brooke ? i mean , the logan women are notorious for sleeping with men that do n't belong to them . in fact , brooke , years ago , slept with her daughter 's husband , so how do you know that she did n't realize it was you and not her husband ? oliver : she -- she did n't know it was me . she did n't even realize what had happened until the next day . brooke adores hope . she 'd never do anything to hurt her like that . she 's -- she 's as devastated as i am .

i 'll build out a new one . katie : wow . you 're really working hard . bill : whatever it takes to get you back . katie : including bestowing me with a vice presidency ? bill : i 'm not gon na lie . sweetens the pot . but it is good business . you are exceptional in the bedroom -- uh , boardroom . you have vision , you have communication skills , people like you . why should n't spencer publications benefit from all that ? katie : well , i 'm very flattered . bill : just keeping it real , girl . katie : and i guess i 'm looking forward to the future . bill : yes . the future . there 's a new era dawning . my family running my company . you and liam by my side . we 're going to accomplish something unprecedented , and not just in the office . at home , too . katie : i do have one reservation about taking this job . bill : say the word . i 'll fix it . katie : well , it mostly has to do with time . i mean , i 'm used to spending my days with will , and that means a lot to me . bill : i already agreed to flex time and reinstating daycare . katie : yes , but do you really mean it ? because i seem to remember somebody saying something about the female employees taking care of their brats and who have no business being at the office in the first place . bill : what kind of jerk said that ? i did n't say that . katie : i think it was you . bill : well , let 's suppose it was me . i changed my mind . katie : i see . so you were ... bill : oh , come on . you gon na make me say it ? katie : come on . come -- think of it as a character - building exercise . bill : [ growls ] all right . uh ... i was wr ... katie : you 're so close . you 're so close . bill : i was ... wrong . katie : oh , that is the sexiest thing you 've ever said to me . bill : it 's the most painful i 've ever said to you . but i 'm gon na take it a little bit further . the truth is , everything you implemented was good for the company . you made the employees feel cared about and valued . and that manifested itself in their work product . katie : bill spencer lives and learns . who would have thought ? rick : do you really think that this is such a good idea ? barging in my office , ordering me around , pushing me ? liam : hey , i was just at pam 's desk . she told me who was in here . you 're the one who started yelling . rick : this is none of your business ! you do n't work here ! liam : are you kidding me ? do you see these two ? these are my people , rick . what -- what happened here ? caroline : he just started berating us . ivy : i accused him of being disrespectful to caroline , which he was , because he was n't letting her speak about her own line . caroline : and that completely set him off and on to ridge and me again . rick : because it 's a little bit hard when you guys are still carrying on . go ahead . explain it to him . explain how it has never stopped ! caroline : that is not what i said ! rick : you said nothing , which is as good as being guilty . you see , liam , your cousin is n't exactly blameless or innocent . liam : yeah , neither are you . how 's the new roommate , by the way ? so , this is -- this is when he started yelling ? ivy : yeah . and then he threatened to fire me if i dared to stand up in defense of caroline . and then he ended up firing her . liam : yeah , well , you 've been making a habit of that lately -- tossing caroline out . rick : why would i want her around , the faithless liar ? liam : hey . cool it . rick : what ? what ? i ca n't -- i ca n't speak the truth about my wife , my cheater wife ? ! liam : do you understand how hypocritical you sound right now ? ! you are living with maya , rick ! you sleep with her every night ! yeah , i get that you 're in pain . hell , i - i even sympathize . but you do n't get to be a bully just because you 're hurt , just because you can . bill : so , because of you , your influence , i , uh , live and learn , become a better man . that 's why i need you so much . katie : so , let me get this straight . i 'm supposed to take you back to make you a nicer person ? bill : well , that 's one reason . i mean , i 've got more . who makes you laugh the way i do ? hmm ? hmm ? katie : no one . bill : mm - hmm . least of all that , uh , mr. uptight dressmaker . katie : ridge could be very funny . bill : really ? oh , yeah . i mean , he just gets them rolling in the aisles . katie : he has a sense of humor . it just might be a little more subtle than yours . bill : okay , you know , i get that . oh , oh , you mean like -- like that string that you wore on your finger for months , your `` engagement ring `` ? that -- that was a good one . katie : okay . bill : hysterical . katie : all right . enough . you can stop now . bill : when you want a real one , you just let me know . katie : you are relentless . bill : it 's part of my considerable charm . katie : let me know when you need help with your self - esteem . bill : what are you talking about ? i am a humbled man . katie : since when ? bill : since you have n't taken me back yet . but you 're thinking about it , are n't you ? [ clicks tongue ] huh ? katie : how about we just take it one day at a time , okay ? can we do that ? bill : for the moment . katie : good . moving on . i think i would like to make daycare my first priority . bill : okay . sounds good to me . and listen , you know , that 's not just good for the employees . it 's good for us , all of us . will can come here . he 'll have kids his own age to play with while you and i are up here expanding his future empire . katie : best of both worlds . bill : [ sighs ] all worlds . katie : i 'm excited about this . it 's -- it 's gon na be fun working with you and liam . bill : yeah . makes me wish that i had , uh , something to offer caroline , get her away from forrester . katie : i do n't know about that . she is going to be a major designer now of two lines . bill : right , with ridge . katie : i know you do n't like him , but he has taken her career to new levels that she could not do on her own . bill : yeah , katie , and destroyed her life in the process . i mean , caroline should be celebrating her life and her successes . instead , she is drowning in guilt and remorse over a minor indiscretion that was n't her fault in the first place . katie : well , minor indiscretions have consequences . sometimes big ones . bill : and sometimes good ones . like getting you away from forrester . and now here we are . katie : yep . here we are . rick : i 'm not gon na stand here and be lectured by you . who the hell do you think you are ? this is my company . liam : is this how you normally manage your staff ? you -- you just ? you what ? you -- you summon the peons and yell at them , intimidate them , threaten their jobs ? or is that special treatment reserved for my cousin and my girlfriend ? rick : i do n't have to explain anything to you , friend . liam : oh , i wish you would , rick , 'cause you sound pretty damn irrational right now . rick : do you know what your cousin did ? betrayal . betrayal . and so , i 'm supposed to handle her with some sort of special care ? everybody 's so concerned about -- about caroline 's fragile feelings . well , what about mine ? i have to see her every day , working with him every single day ! i did n't create this situation , this -- this untenable situation ! she did that all by herself . and now she has to deal with the fallout . or you could leave . which i think is a better solution for all of us . liam : i already told you , rick . i 'm not unsympathetic . you got hurt . it happens . it sucks . we deal with it . it is not an excuse to treat people like crap . if you just fired her , at least that would be clean , but you ... you 're -- you 're breaking her spirit . i mean , you 're making her life a living hell , rick . you 're manipulating her , you 're lying to her , and you 're rubbing your relationship with maya in her face . ivy : because he still loves her . rick : stay out of this or you can follow her out of here ! liam : whoa , whoa , whoa ! rick : do n't you `` whoa , whoa `` me ! i am c.e.o . ! i can fire whoever i damn well please ! liam : oh , god , you love saying that , do n't you ? ! `` i 'm the c.e.o . of this company ! `` well , why do n't you back it up instead of acting like a pissed off , little child ? ! do you think your father would be proud of you right now ? do you think he 'd be proud that he left the future of forrester creations in your hands ? do you think that you are in any way being fair ? because if i know anything about your history with this company , rick , it 's that you of all people should know what it feels like to be treated unfairly . rick : why am i listening to this ? by the way , you touch me again , you will have a fight on your hands . you two , australia and new york are only a flight away . ivy : [ sighs ] rick : you 're officially on notice . now get out of my office , all of you ! liam : okay , fine . you 're on your little power trip . you 're throwing your weight around . you 're trying to intimidate people . but just remember who you 're talking to , rick . these women are not unprotected . caroline is a spencer , and ivy is my girlfriend , and if you disrespect them again , i 'll be in your face again . except next time , i may bring more than a friendly shove . rick : [ chuckles ] well , are n't you your father 's son . liam : when it comes to protecting the people i love from someone like you , oh , yeah . yeah , i am . bill : so , you do n't want to be referred to as liam 's replacement -- check . you do n't want to deal with alison -- check . daycare -- check . i move back in the house -- check . katie : bill . bill : come on , katie . come on . it 's gon na make will so happy . he 'll have his parents living under the same roof . we 'll be working together . a fully functioning family unit . katie : that would make him happy . that 's true . bill : and it 'll make me happy . and you , too . so why are you stalling ? let 's go back to being happy the way we used to be . katie : you make it sound so simple . this is not easy for me to think about taking a leap of faith with you again . bill : i 'll catch you if you stumble . katie : you 're the reason i trip . listen , i ... i believed in us once when we were together , and ... that did n't turn out so great . bill : because of me . katie : we all made mistakes . bill : no . no , the responsibility stops here . you were n't well . you were dealing with your depression . i did n't fully appreciate that . and that 's my fault . katie : you chose brooke . bill : [ sighs ] i know . katie : you left me for her . bill : and that still stings . i get that . i want to make it up to you , and i will make it up to you if you let me . katie : i 'd like to be able to believe in us again ... to trust you . bill : you can . i promise . the water 's fine . liam : i could n't believe it when i heard rick going off like that . i mean , is this -- is this a thing that happens all the time now ? ivy : uh , yeah . he pops every now and again . caroline : i mean , never really that bad . i mean , he gets angry , but today ... [ sighs ] and we -- we both know why . ivy : yeah , because he loves you . caroline : because i hurt him . liam : what is this about , uh , you and ridge still `` connecting `` ? caroline : so what if we are ? i mean , what 's the big deal , seriously ? i mean , rick 's living with maya . he 's posting her stupid face all over stephanie 's wall . liam : caroline , i 'm not judging . i 'm just trying to gauge rick 's state of mind , i mean , how closely the guy needs to be watched . caroline : [ sighs ] he 's -- he 's just ... liam : hurt ? yeah , i know . i got it , i got it . i 'm kind of done caring , though . i mean , it happens , you deal with it . you do n't dehumanize people . you do n't beat them up with your anger . i mean ... he wo n't get away with doing this to you . either of you . liam : [ scoffs ] starting to think eric made a big mistake making rick c.e.o . ivy : mm - hmm . liam : i mean , if he -- if he knew what was going on here , can we , like -- can we call him or ... ? caroline : mnh - mnh . eric is unreachable . and even if he were ... ivy : eric ca n't fire rick for a year , at least . liam : what ? ivy : mm - hmm . caroline : yeah , when rick was conning me into believing that we still had a marriage to save , he was also working eric , making it seem like he was gon na get what he wanted , which was rick and me running the company . liam : even though he intended to be with maya the entire time ? caroline : mm - hmm . ivy : yeah . unfortunately , before that was made clear to everyone , rick was working on convincing eric to sign over full control of forrester , which is why rick now sits there as king of us all . caroline : i do n't want to lose my job , you guys . i really need it . ivy : yeah . neither do i , which is why we just have to hope for some kind of modicum of peace . liam : oh , what ? by just tiptoeing around rick 's moods all the time ? ivy : well , yeah . i mean , if that 's what it takes . liam : how are you supposed to produce under these conditions ? i mean , that -- that is the definition of a hostile work environment . that 's unacceptable . caroline : rick 's the boss . i mean , there 's not much we can do about it . liam : not much you can do . i 'm gon na keep my eye on the guy . caroline : i - i ca n't be here anymore , you guys . ivy : i know . you must be emotionally exhausted . just get out of here , get some rest . caroline : thank you . and thank you for the fierce backup . liam : yeah , anytime . caroline : you 're a good one . liam : you gon na be okay ? caroline : uh , yeah . i 'm gon na be fine . i 'm gon na -- i 'm gon na do what ivy says . i 'm gon na go home and put on comfy clothes , make some popcorn , put on something i can fall asleep to . liam : yeah . caroline : i 'll see you tomorrow . liam : okay .

you 're giving me a free pass ? michael : i 'm giving you an out . lauren : i do n't want an out ! michael : you did n't sign up for this . lauren : the hell i did n't ! in sickness and in health -- those were the vows that i took , and they were n't just words . i meant every single one of them ! michael : neither of us expected this . lauren : but that does n't mean that i walk out on you ! i love you ! cancer does not change that ! michael : no ! no , no ! cancer changes everything ! lauren : it does n't have to ! michael : it will ! and all that love you feel for me will just change to pity , and i wo n't be that ! i will not be that ! i refuse to be that person ! chelsea : the christening gown is my way of showing billy that i fully support him being part of his daughter 's life . anita : admirable but not a bright move . victoria is gon na use that baby to reel him back in , and it 's up to you to keep billy as far away from them as possible . chelsea : absolutely not . i am watching my son grow up without his father . there is no way i 'm keeping billy from his daughter . anita : well , it 's a slippery slope , darlin ' -- one that victoria and billy have slid down before . chelsea : just because they share a child does n't mean they 're getting back together . johnny did n't bring me and billy together . anita : no ! he brought victoria and billy together ! chelsea : billy has made it very clear that everything he shared with her -- it 's in the past . anita : you just keep telling yourself that and maybe you 'll actually start to believe it . chelsea : i 'm not stupid , okay ?

if you would have left him in the woods like i asked you to , that would n't have happened . sage : if i would have left him in the woods , he would have died . i ca n't live with that . can you ? adam : hmm . you know , being locked up in this tomb and pretending to be some old woman 's dead ne'er - do - well grandson -- that 's not my idea of living . sage : the man that you love to mock gave his life saving yours . adam : yeah , and just when i get a chance to take advantage of that and go out in public , you ruin it ! or was that your plan all along ? sage : what the hell is that supposed to mean ? adam : that 's why you were so adamant about coming back with me to genoa city , was n't it ? you wanted to make sure i never got my old life back . nikki : i 'm the reason you and christine are having a baby ? paul : if dylan had n't donated a part of his liver , i would n't be here . nikki : oh . well , that 's very true , but it sounds like you should be thanking him , not me . christine : i agree . paul : well , i know how difficult it was for you to go looking for a son you thought was ian 's . nikki : thank god that turned out not to be true . paul : but you did n't know that -- not when you took the very first step . nikki : i would n't have even begun this journey if it had n't have been for katherine 's letter . she made me more brave than i was . paul : well , i 'm so grateful for giving me a chance to get to know my son ... and a chance to be a father to this baby . nikki : well , i 'm very grateful to you . you never gave up , even when it seemed like there was no hope at all . christine : i 'm just glad everything worked out the way it did . looks like we all got what we wanted . paul : some things are just meant to be . devon : hey . here 's the key . hilary : devon ... devon : it 's gon na be okay , all right ? i 'll meet you in the suite in a few minutes . just go up there when you think it 's safe . okay ? lily : my suspicions were right . nikki : okay . i should let you two get back to celebrating your good news . paul : oh , oh , wait . you never said why you came by . christine : no , you did n't . nikki : oh . well , you have heard about our dylan 's news ? paul : oh , you mean his and avery 's engagement ? nikki : yes , and i 'm thrilled , and i just thought we could have a little party for them -- you know , nothing big , just maybe dinner with family and a few friends . paul : yeah , i think that 's a great idea . christine : that 's very thoughtful of you . paul : mm - hmm . christine : um , you know , i 'm sure there 's something on my desk that needs my attention , so i 'm gon na go . if you need any help with the party , let us know , and i guess we will have our discussion later . nikki : eek . sorry . paul : no , it 's all right . she 's been , uh , really emotional lately . but her offer to help with the party was very sincere . if there is anything we can do ... nikki : actually , there is . i was hoping you would host it with me . sage : you ungrateful -- all i have done since gabriel saved your miserable life is help you ! i sat next to you after all your surgeries . i went to all your physical - therapy sessions . i helped you on my own for hours . i held your hand through all the sweat and all the pain , and this is how you thank me ? ! i do n't even know why i bother with you . adam : yeah , you do . we both do . sage : if anyone 's gon na blow it here , it 's gon na be you . you are putting yourself at risk by talking to chelsea . adam : no . she did n't suspect a thing . sage : but constance will if you keep calling out your wife 's name in your sleep or she sees those photos . adam : i can handle grandma . sage : okay , so fine -- you can explain your dreams , you can explain that , but you can not hide from your nasty disposition . adam : right , yeah , because st. gabriel spread joy and sunshine everywhere he went . sage : gabriel was n't a saint , but he had a big heart , and he never took out his anger on the people that he loved . adam : well , maybe if i led the charmed life he did , i would n't , either . sage : no , he had his fair share of heartache and disappointments . he was devastated when his father died . but it did n't turn him into an insufferable ass ! adam : well , maybe because he never knew what it was like not to be good enough in his father 's eyes ... or what it was like to stand there and watch your son go blind , knowing you could n't do a damn thing about it . sage : except run down a child with your car and take her eyes . adam : damn it ! that is not what happened ! sage : that 's the anger i 'm talking about . adam : yeah , i 'm angry . i 'm angry that i got to sit here and pretend to be somebody else while billy abbott takes over my life . hilary : lily , i - i do n't know what you think is going on -- lily : i talked to you guys about this on thanksgiving , but i feel like dad is struggling , and i was right . there is a reason to be worried . devon : i just saw him not that long ago . he seemed fine . hilary : yeah . i asked him straight out how he was doing , and he said he was okay . lily : well , he 's not . hilary : listen , i know that he went through a rough patch when he first lost his sight , but after malcolm 's visit , he really did turn a corner . devon : maybe you 're overreacting . lily : you know , i do n't think that you would be saying that if you saw him trying to read a children 's book just now . devon : there 's gon na be some bumps in the road , but i think he 's coping as well as could be expected . lily : devon , he said that he 's one drink away from giving in . is that coping to you ? lauren : okay , uh , look ... you 're just too -- you 're overwhelmed , you know ? how could you not be ? you 've just been told you have cancer . michael : mm . you never think it 's gon na happen to you . lauren : it does . together , we 'll fight this . michael : no . this is my fight . lauren : it 's not , michael . come on . michael : you will not pay the price of my illness . lauren : i told you that i would be here in the good and the bad , and , yes , this is bad . this is really bad . but you know what 's worse ? losing you . i am not gon na let that happen . i am gon na fight cancer and anything else , because losing you is not an option . michael : we have to face the realities of the situation . lauren : that 's right . let 's face them head - on . i am ready to kick cancer 's ass . but i ca n't . i ca n't do it alone . you have to do whatever you need to do to beat this . fenmore : beat what ? lauren : aww . look at that face . [ chuckles ] michael : welcome home . welcome home ! lauren : so , did i miss something ? i thought you were flying in tonight . fenmore : i caught an earlier flight . what were you talking about when i walked in ? it sounded pretty intense ? michael : oh , it 's a -- it 's a case i 'm working on . fenmore : hmm . the same one you were working on the last time i was here ? michael : actually , it is . yes . fenmore : it is ? wow . that must be some case . i never heard mom speak so passionately about your work . michael : it is definitely something that i have n't faced before . fenmore : i thought you 'd seen everything . michael : me , too . me , too . i 'm , you know , just not really sure how to help this particular client . it 's -- it 's really tricky , and if i make the wrong move , it could be very devastating for him . fenmore : that 's a lot of pressure . michael : more than you know . lauren : honey , let 's sit down . let 's sit down . so , you got through finals . that 's a good thing . fenmore : oh , yeah . lauren : tell us about frat life , about your love life . fenmore : oh , come on . i 'm not gon na tell you about all that . lauren : come on . tell us ... something . fenmore : i 'm really just ready for a break . lauren : is everything okay ? fenmore : yeah . you know , it 's just a lot of studying , a lot of partying , lots of pressure . lauren : not , uh ... fenmore : oh , no . no , no , no . i 'm finally in a place where i do n't feel like i need to take drugs to cope with all that stress , and there is plenty of it , which is why i 'm looking forward to this ski trip -- you know , no books , no classes . i 'm just gon na kick back . michael : all right . you know what ? i tell you what . i think -- i think you should call your friends , you should head up to canada tomorrow , and you should get an early start on your vacation . lauren : oh , now that 's a great idea . why do n't i call the airline ? fenmore : whoa . what 's going on ? why are you rushing me out of here ? sage : you need to control your anger . you 're not the only person that has a lot riding on this plan . adam : i know what 's at stake , sage , for both of us . sage : that 's not just what i 'm talking about . if the truth of your identity comes out , i could be charged with harboring a fugitive , and it 's gon na kill constance if she finds out that her grandson died saving you . adam : well , you know , spare me the tears . i feel like that old woman 's probably 10 years past her expiration date . sage : you are so heartless ! adam : yes , i know . i 'm a horrible , horrible human being . i 've heard it all before . sage : my god ! if i go to prison because of you -- adam : look , will you relax , sage ? no one 's going to prison , okay ? our trip to genoa city proves that . no one suspected a thing -- sharon , noah , chelsea ... not even my old man . sage : what ? adam : yeah . i had a little run - in with the great one himself . he was rude , abrupt , smug . he was actually the most pleasant he 's ever been to me . i fooled him . chelsea : i 'm not gon na give billy a hard time about his past , especially when i know how hard it is for him to deal with mine . anita : yours ? chelsea : every time i mention adam 's name , it brings him back to the night that delia was killed . all of that pain , all of that anger -- it 's still very fresh for him . but he knows how important it is for me to keep adam 's memory alive for connor 's sake , so he 's trying not to let his feelings for adam come between us . so , i 'm not gon na let his connection to victoria do that , either . anita : there 's just one big difference here -- adam 's dead , and victoria is very much alive . chelsea : oh , my god . mom , he 's not going back to her , okay ? anita : what has happened to you ? you used to be so good at reading people and situations , and now you 're ignoring what 's right in front of your eyes . chelsea : i have a feeling you 're gon na tell me what that is . anita : reality . billy is spending more and more time with victoria and their kids at that storybook house with the picket fence and romping through their backyard with the swing set . chelsea : yes , and then always coming home to me . anita : until one day ... he looks around at you and at adam 's son and your shiny penthouse and he says , `` hmm . i guess the grass was n't greener over here . `` lily : dad has been putting on this act that he 's fine . that 's all it is -- an act . he 's not that far from losing his sobriety . hilary : did something happen to push neil so close to the edge ? lily : i think it 's just the general stress of being blind . and i 'm sure phyllis taking over his job at jabot was n't easy for him . devon : yeah , but do n't forget , that was his decision to step down . lily : yeah , 'cause he thought it was best for jack and the company , and now we have to do what 's best for him . he ca n't stay sober without our support . hilary : is he still in your office ? lily : he was when i left . hilary : i 'm gon na go talk to him . devon : um ... is there anything that i can do ? lily : you can answer me question . why did you invite hilary to come to your private suite ? nikki : i will see if dylan and avery are free on that date , and then we can talk about a guest list . paul : sounds good . christine : hey . you 're still here . nikki : oh , i 'm just leaving . i 'm sorry . i 'll let you know about their availability , paul . paul : okay . nikki : congratulations again . it really is just such wonderful news . paul : it is . a lot of that going around -- for us , for dylan and avery , and you 've got a new granddaughter . nikki : hey , it must be in the water . [ chuckles ] it really is nice , after the hell we went through with ian this summer . paul : i know how much strength and courage it took not to let him get to you . nikki : i could have handled things better . paul : no , i totally disagree . i mean , look at the three of us standing here . we are proof that ian ward did n't get to any of us . fenmore : wow . i 'm barely in the door , and you 're already trying to get rid of me . lauren : oh , no . of course not . michael : of course we are n't . fenmore : then why are you trying to rush me on the slopes ? michael : because you deserve a break . your mother and i both know what a tough year you 've had . fenmore : it 's been interesting . lauren : fen , you 've worked so hard to get your life back on track . fenmore : i 'm not gon na lie . it was n't easy . i get a bad grade , a girl blows me off , i get thrown off a little . but thank god i have not been thrown any major curveballs lately . michael : and we want to keep it that way , so you go . you be with your friends . have fun . hit the slopes . it 'll be a great holiday . fenmore : [ chuckles ] has to be better than last year , right ? that murder charge over my head , being under house arrest -- i ca n't imagine a christmas worse than that . devon : [ sighs ] lily : so , are you gon na answer my question now ? devon : yeah . of course i am . there 's a simple explanation . lily : what is it ? devon : i have no idea what to get gwen for christmas , and i asked hilary if she would sit and brainstorm with me over some gift ideas . lily : well , why did n't you ask me ? devon : because i figured you 'd probably give me a hard time for not knowing her well enough to be able to pick out a gift on my own . lily : and would i be wrong ? devon : is this gon na be another lecture ? lily : no . look , i 'm not trying to annoy you . i care about you . and i want to make sure that you 're with someone who loves you for you and not your money . devon : i appreciate the vote of confidence . lily : you 're a good person , devon , and you always see the good in people . i just want to make sure that you do n't get hurt . devon : i know that , and i appreciate you for it . i 'm not gon na get hurt . i 'm very happy . i 'm as happy as i 've ever been because of this amazing woman in my life . hilary : hi . neil : hi . i bet i can guess who told you i was here . hilary : yeah . i ran in to lily downstairs . neil : yeah ? did you ? did she tell you that i was tempted to drink ? hilary : why did n't you tell me ? neil : okay , hilary . i know that we promised each other that we 'd have an honest and open relationship , but , to be honest , i was totally ashamed that i would even think about taking a drink when alcohol has helped to destroy your family , honey . hilary : neil , what happened to my mom -- neil : was partly my fault . hilary : no . she was the one who gave in to the disease . neil : you have every right to be angry with me . hilary : i 'm angry at myself ... for not being there for you . neil : it 's okay . so , here you are right now . it 's all right . hey ... there 's something that i really want you to do for me . chelsea : he 's still sleeping . anita : well , let 's go wake him up . chelsea : mom . anita : come on ! i want to give him some of this loot ! chelsea : well , i thought you said , `` no peeking . `` anita : well , there 's still plenty for christmas . come on . let 's go wake him up . chelsea : [ laughing ] mom , no . he needs to sleep . anita : well , without him here to distract me , then i 'm gon na have more time to focus on you and billy and what 's going on here . chelsea : you know , i do n't think that 's necessary . anita : i asked you a question , remember ? chelsea : no . anita : you used to be a better liar than that . chelsea : what do you want me to say ? what do you want me to say -- that i 'm scared billy 's gon na go back to her ? anita : you 've always known where billy 's heart lies . chelsea : if he wants to be with victoria , i ca n't stop him . anita : i agree , darling , but you do n't have to build a bridge to get him there . okay . i got to go . [ door opens , closes ] sage : you accuse me of trying to sabotage the plan and you let your father see you ? adam : yeah . we ended up in the same elevator . sage : oh , my god . you were that close to him ? adam : yeah . sage : did you have a conversation with him ? adam : yeah . i mean , we pretty much , you know , picked up where we left off . i spoke . he pretended i was n't there . sage : oh , cue the violins . adam : no , i 'm -- i 'm way past letting the old man affect me . it 's hard to get hurt by somebody you barely knew . sage : well , he 's your father . you must have felt something when you saw him . adam : yeah . yeah . i felt a lot ... none of it good . sage : is n't the ultimate goal for you to get closer to your family again ? adam : yeah , my family ... not victor newman . sage : you gon na be able to pull this off ? adam : what ? sage : gabriel was very devoted to his father . when mr. bingham died -- adam : oh , i see . you do n't think i can fake that kind of devotion . sage : well , considering how you feel about your own father , no . adam : well , you know , i really do n't have a choice , do i ? pretending to be your old pal gabe -- that 's the only way i 'm gon na be able to get my family back . sage : did you ever think that chelsea may have moved on so maybe you should , too ? adam : move on to what , sage ? sage : a new life . you know , do n't just pretend to be gabriel . be him . forget about adam newman and all those people that he left behind . adam : that 's never gon na happen . christine : so , now you and nikki are co - hosting this engagement party together ? paul : well , nikki thought it would be a nice gift from both of dylan 's parents , but if you do n't want me to do it -- christine : no . no . i would never keep you from being involved in your son 's life . paul : well , thank you . christine : you 're welcome . i 'm just glad you do n't have to make up for lost time with this child . paul : you 're not upset that i told nikki about the baby , are you ? i mean , i thought since we had confirmation from the doctor , it did n't matter . christine : i am glad you 're excited . paul : i am excited . you know , it 's not my first kid , but it , uh -- it feels like it . it does . i hope i 'm good at it . christine : what are you talking about ? of course you 're gon na be good at it . paul : and how do you know that ? i 've never done it before . christine : i know you , and i know you are kind and loving and patient . paul : well , i was n't around . i bailed on my first two . christine : oh , come on . you are a good man , and you are going to be a wonderful father . paul : you really think so ? christine : yes , i do . i think this child is so lucky to have you as a dad . paul : mm . i think i 'm the lucky one . neil : hilary , baby , thank you so much for bringing me . hilary : oh , of course . do you want me to come in with you ? neil : oh , i wish you could , but this meeting is for people on the program only , so ... hilary : okay . i 'll see you after , then . neil : okay . is this it ? hilary : mm - hmm . it 's right here . neil : all right . thank you . who 'd like to start ? nikki : i 'm sorry . i really ca n't . it 's okay . you 'll talk when you 're ready . would anyone else like to speak ? neil : yeah . i 'd like to share .

you 're giving me a free pass ? michael : i 'm giving you an out . lauren : i do n't want an out ! michael : you did n't sign up for this . lauren : the hell i did n't ! in sickness and in health -- those were the vows that i took , and they were n't just words . i meant every single one of them ! michael : neither of us expected this . lauren : but that does n't mean that i walk out on you ! i love you ! cancer does not change that ! michael : no ! no , no ! cancer changes everything ! lauren : it does n't have to ! michael : it will ! and all that love you feel for me will just change to pity , and i wo n't be that ! i will not be that ! i refuse to be that person ! chelsea : the christening gown is my way of showing billy that i fully support him being part of his daughter 's life . anita : admirable but not a bright move . victoria is gon na use that baby to reel him back in , and it 's up to you to keep billy as far away from them as possible . chelsea : absolutely not . i am watching my son grow up without his father . there is no way i 'm keeping billy from his daughter . anita : well , it 's a slippery slope , darlin ' -- one that victoria and billy have slid down before . chelsea : just because they share a child does n't mean they 're getting back together . johnny did n't bring me and billy together . anita : no ! he brought victoria and billy together ! chelsea : billy has made it very clear that everything he shared with her -- it 's in the past . anita : you just keep telling yourself that and maybe you 'll actually start to believe it . chelsea : i 'm not stupid , okay ? i know that victoria will never completely be out of his life any more than adam will be out of mine . adam : i have gone through countless surgeries . i have undergone months of physical therapy . i 've given up my home , my family , my life , all so i could have some chance at a meaningful existence , not so you could come in and cozy up next to my ass of a brother . sage : i was n't looking for a hookup . i was looking for lunch . i walked into a club , and he recognized me . adam : oh , great . well , you know what ? if you would have left him in the woods like i asked you to , that would n't have happened . sage : if i would have left him in the woods , he would have died . i ca n't live with that . can you ? adam : hmm . you know , being locked up in this tomb and pretending to be some old woman 's dead ne'er - do - well grandson -- that 's not my idea of living . sage : the man that you love to mock gave his life saving yours . adam : yeah , and just when i get a chance to take advantage of that and go out in public , you ruin it ! or was that your plan all along ? sage : what the hell is that supposed to mean ? adam : that 's why you were so adamant about coming back with me to genoa city , was n't it ? you wanted to make sure i never got my old life back . nikki : i 'm the reason you and christine are having a baby ? paul : if dylan had n't donated a part of his liver , i would n't be here . nikki : oh . well , that 's very true , but it sounds like you should be thanking him , not me . christine : i agree . paul : well , i know how difficult it was for you to go looking for a son you thought was ian 's . nikki : thank god that turned out not to be true . paul : but you did n't know that -- not when you took the very first step . nikki : i would n't have even begun this journey if it had n't have been for katherine 's letter . she made me more brave than i was . paul : well , i 'm so grateful for giving me a chance to get to know my son ... and a chance to be a father to this baby . nikki : well , i 'm very grateful to you . you never gave up , even when it seemed like there was no hope at all . christine : i 'm just glad everything worked out the way it did . looks like we all got what we wanted . paul : some things are just meant to be . devon : hey . here 's the key . hilary : devon ... devon : it 's gon na be okay , all right ? i 'll meet you in the suite in a few minutes . just go up there when you think it 's safe . okay ? lily : my suspicions were right . nikki : okay . i should let you two get back to celebrating your good news . paul : oh , oh , wait . you never said why you came by . christine : no , you did n't . nikki : oh . well , you have heard about our dylan 's news ? paul : oh , you mean his and avery 's engagement ? nikki : yes , and i 'm thrilled , and i just thought we could have a little party for them -- you know , nothing big , just maybe dinner with family and a few friends . paul : yeah , i think that 's a great idea . christine : that 's very thoughtful of you . paul : mm - hmm . christine : um , you know , i 'm sure there 's something on my desk that needs my attention , so i 'm gon na go . if you need any help with the party , let us know , and i guess we will have our discussion later . nikki : eek . sorry . paul : no , it 's all right . she 's been , uh , really emotional lately . but her offer to help with the party was very sincere . if there is anything we can do ... nikki : actually , there is . i was hoping you would host it with me . sage : you ungrateful -- all i have done since gabriel saved your miserable life is help you ! i sat next to you after all your surgeries . i went to all your physical - therapy sessions . i helped you on my own for hours . i held your hand through all the sweat and all the pain , and this is how you thank me ? ! i do n't even know why i bother with you . adam : yeah , you do . we both do . sage : if anyone 's gon na blow it here , it 's gon na be you . you are putting yourself at risk by talking to chelsea . adam : no . she did n't suspect a thing . sage : but constance will if you keep calling out your wife 's name in your sleep or she sees those photos . adam : i can handle grandma . sage : okay , so fine -- you can explain your dreams , you can explain that , but you can not hide from your nasty disposition . adam : right , yeah , because st. gabriel spread joy and sunshine everywhere he went . sage : gabriel was n't a saint , but he had a big heart , and he never took out his anger on the people that he loved . adam : well , maybe if i led the charmed life he did , i would n't , either . sage : no , he had his fair share of heartache and disappointments . he was devastated when his father died . but it did n't turn him into an insufferable ass ! adam : well , maybe because he never knew what it was like not to be good enough in his father 's eyes ... or what it was like to stand there and watch your son go blind , knowing you could n't do a damn thing about it . sage : except run down a child with your car and take her eyes . adam : damn it ! that is not what happened ! sage : that 's the anger i 'm talking about . adam : yeah , i 'm angry . i 'm angry that i got to sit here and pretend to be somebody else while billy abbott takes over my life . hilary : lily , i - i do n't know what you think is going on -- lily : i talked to you guys about this on thanksgiving , but i feel like dad is struggling , and i was right . there is a reason to be worried . devon : i just saw him not that long ago . he seemed fine . hilary : yeah . i asked him straight out how he was doing , and he said he was okay . lily : well , he 's not . hilary : listen , i know that he went through a rough patch when he first lost his sight , but after malcolm 's visit , he really did turn a corner . devon : maybe you 're overreacting . lily : you know , i do n't think that you would be saying that if you saw him trying to read a children 's book just now . devon : there 's gon na be some bumps in the road , but i think he 's coping as well as could be expected . lily : devon , he said that he 's one drink away from giving in . is that coping to you ? lauren : okay , uh , look ... you 're just too -- you 're overwhelmed , you know ? how could you not be ? you 've just been told you have cancer . michael : mm . you never think it 's gon na happen to you . lauren : it does . together , we 'll fight this . michael : no . this is my fight . lauren : it 's not , michael . come on . michael : you will not pay the price of my illness . lauren : i told you that i would be here in the good and the bad , and , yes , this is bad . this is really bad . but you know what 's worse ? losing you . i am not gon na let that happen . i am gon na fight cancer and anything else , because losing you is not an option . michael : we have to face the realities of the situation . lauren : that 's right . let 's face them head - on . i am ready to kick cancer 's ass . but i ca n't . i ca n't do it alone . you have to do whatever you need to do to beat this . fenmore : beat what ? lauren : aww . look at that face . [ chuckles ] michael : welcome home . welcome home ! lauren : so , did i miss something ? i thought you were flying in tonight . fenmore : i caught an earlier flight . what were you talking about when i walked in ? it sounded pretty intense ? michael : oh , it 's a -- it 's a case i 'm working on . fenmore : hmm . the same one you were working on the last time i was here ? michael : actually , it is . yes . fenmore : it is ? wow . that must be some case . i never heard mom speak so passionately about your work . michael : it is definitely something that i have n't faced before . fenmore : i thought you 'd seen everything . michael : me , too . me , too . i 'm , you know , just not really sure how to help this particular client . it 's -- it 's really tricky , and if i make the wrong move , it could be very devastating for him . fenmore : that 's a lot of pressure . michael : more than you know . lauren : honey , let 's sit down . let 's sit down . so , you got through finals . that 's a good thing . fenmore : oh , yeah . lauren : tell us about frat life , about your love life . fenmore : oh , come on . i 'm not gon na tell you about all that . lauren : come on . tell us ... something . fenmore : i 'm really just ready for a break . lauren : is everything okay ? fenmore : yeah . you know , it 's just a lot of studying , a lot of partying , lots of pressure . lauren : not , uh ... fenmore : oh , no . no , no , no . i 'm finally in a place where i do n't feel like i need to take drugs to cope with all that stress , and there is plenty of it , which is why i 'm looking forward to this ski trip -- you know , no books , no classes . i 'm just gon na kick back . michael : all right . you know what ? i tell you what . i think -- i think you should call your friends , you should head up to canada tomorrow , and you should get an early start on your vacation . lauren : oh , now that 's a great idea . why do n't i call the airline ? fenmore : whoa . what 's going on ? why are you rushing me out of here ? sage : you need to control your anger . you 're not the only person that has a lot riding on this plan . adam : i know what 's at stake , sage , for both of us . sage : that 's not just what i 'm talking about . if the truth of your identity comes out , i could be charged with harboring a fugitive , and it 's gon na kill constance if she finds out that her grandson died saving you . adam : well , you know , spare me the tears . i feel like that old woman 's probably 10 years past her expiration date . sage : you are so heartless ! adam : yes , i know . i 'm a horrible , horrible human being . i 've heard it all before . sage : my god ! if i go to prison because of you -- adam : look , will you relax , sage ? no one 's going to prison , okay ? our trip to genoa city proves that . no one suspected a thing -- sharon , noah , chelsea ... not even my old man . sage : what ? adam : yeah . i had a little run - in with the great one himself . he was rude , abrupt , smug . he was actually the most pleasant he 's ever been to me . i fooled him . chelsea : i 'm not gon na give billy a hard time about his past , especially when i know how hard it is for him to deal with mine . anita : yours ? chelsea : every time i mention adam 's name , it brings him back to the night that delia was killed . all of that pain , all of that anger -- it 's still very fresh for him . but he knows how important it is for me to keep adam 's memory alive for connor 's sake , so he 's trying not to let his feelings for adam come between us . so , i 'm not gon na let his connection to victoria do that , either . anita : there 's just one big difference here -- adam 's dead , and victoria is very much alive . chelsea : oh , my god . mom , he 's not going back to her , okay ? anita : what has happened to you ? you used to be so good at reading people and situations , and now you 're ignoring what 's right in front of your eyes . chelsea : i have a feeling you 're gon na tell me what that is . anita : reality . billy is spending more and more time with victoria and their kids at that storybook house with the picket fence and romping through their backyard with the swing set . chelsea : yes , and then always coming home to me . anita : until one day ... he looks around at you and at adam 's son and your shiny penthouse and he says , `` hmm . i guess the grass was n't greener over here . `` lily : dad has been putting on this act that he 's fine . that 's all it is -- an act . he 's not that far from losing his sobriety . hilary : did something happen to push neil so close to the edge ? lily : i think it 's just the general stress of being blind . and i 'm sure phyllis taking over his job at jabot was n't easy for him . devon : yeah , but do n't forget , that was his decision to step down . lily : yeah , 'cause he thought it was best for jack and the company , and now we have to do what 's best for him . he ca n't stay sober without our support . hilary : is he still in your office ? lily : he was when i left . hilary : i 'm gon na go talk to him . devon : um ... is there anything that i can do ? lily : you can answer me question . why did you invite hilary to come to your private suite ? nikki : i will see if dylan and avery are free on that date , and then we can talk about a guest list . paul : sounds good . christine : hey . you 're still here . nikki : oh , i 'm just leaving . i 'm sorry . i 'll let you know about their availability , paul . paul : okay . nikki : congratulations again . it really is just such wonderful news . paul : it is . a lot of that going around -- for us , for dylan and avery , and you 've got a new granddaughter . nikki : hey , it must be in the water . [ chuckles ] it really is nice , after the hell we went through with ian this summer . paul : i know how much strength and courage it took not to let him get to you . nikki : i could have handled things better . paul : no , i totally disagree . i mean , look at the three of us standing here . we are proof that ian ward did n't get to any of us . fenmore : wow . i 'm barely in the door , and you 're already trying to get rid of me . lauren : oh , no . of course not . michael : of course we are n't . fenmore : then why are you trying to rush me on the slopes ? michael : because you deserve a break . your mother and i both know what a tough year you 've had . fenmore : it 's been interesting . lauren : fen , you 've worked so hard to get your life back on track . fenmore : i 'm not gon na lie . it was n't easy . i get a bad grade , a girl blows me off , i get thrown off a little . but thank god i have not been thrown any major curveballs lately . michael : and we want to keep it that way , so you go . you be with your friends . have fun . hit the slopes . it 'll be a great holiday . fenmore : [ chuckles ] has to be better than last year , right ? that murder charge over my head , being under house arrest -- i ca n't imagine a christmas worse than that . devon : [ sighs ] lily : so , are you gon na answer my question now ? devon : yeah . of course i am . there 's a simple explanation . lily : what is it ? devon : i have no idea what to get gwen for christmas , and i asked hilary if she would sit and brainstorm with me over some gift ideas . lily : well , why did n't you ask me ? devon : because i figured you 'd probably give me a hard time for not knowing her well enough to be able to pick out a gift on my own . lily : and would i be wrong ? devon : is this gon na be another lecture ? lily : no . look , i 'm not trying to annoy you . i care about you . and i want to make sure that you 're with someone who loves you for you and not your money . devon : i appreciate the vote of confidence . lily : you 're a good person , devon , and you always see the good in people . i just want to make sure that you do n't get hurt . devon : i know that , and i appreciate you for it . i 'm not gon na get hurt . i 'm very happy . i 'm as happy as i 've ever been because of this amazing woman in my life . hilary : hi . neil : hi . i bet i can guess who told you i was here . hilary : yeah . i ran in to lily downstairs . neil : yeah ? did you ? did she tell you that i was tempted to drink ? hilary : why did n't you tell me ? neil : okay , hilary . i know that we promised each other that we 'd have an honest and open relationship , but , to be honest , i was totally ashamed that i would even think about taking a drink when alcohol has helped to destroy your family , honey . hilary : neil , what happened to my mom -- neil : was partly my fault . hilary : no . she was the one who gave in to the disease . neil : you have every right to be angry with me . hilary : i 'm angry at myself ... for not being there for you . neil : it 's okay . so , here you are right now . it 's all right . hey ... there 's something that i really want you to do for me . chelsea : he 's still sleeping . anita : well , let 's go wake him up . chelsea : mom . anita : come on ! i want to give him some of this loot ! chelsea : well , i thought you said , `` no peeking . `` anita : well , there 's still plenty for christmas . come on . let 's go wake him up . chelsea : [ laughing ] mom , no . he needs to sleep . anita : well , without him here to distract me , then i 'm gon na have more time to focus on you and billy and what 's going on here . chelsea : you know , i do n't think that 's necessary . anita : i asked you a question , remember ? chelsea : no . anita : you used to be a better liar than that . chelsea : what do you want me to say ? what do you want me to say -- that i 'm scared billy 's gon na go back to her ? anita : you 've always known where billy 's heart lies . chelsea : if he wants to be with victoria , i ca n't stop him . anita : i agree , darling , but you do n't have to build a bridge to get him there . okay . i got to go . [ door opens , closes ] sage : you accuse me of trying to sabotage the plan and you let your father see you ? adam : yeah . we ended up in the same elevator . sage : oh , my god . you were that close to him ? adam : yeah . sage : did you have a conversation with him ? adam : yeah . i mean , we pretty much , you know , picked up where we left off . i spoke . he pretended i was n't there . sage : oh , cue the violins . adam : no , i 'm -- i 'm way past letting the old man affect me . it 's hard to get hurt by somebody you barely knew . sage : well , he 's your father . you must have felt something when you saw him . adam : yeah . yeah . i felt a lot ... none of it good . sage : is n't the ultimate goal for you to get closer to your family again ? adam : yeah , my family ... not victor newman . sage : you gon na be able to pull this off ? adam : what ? sage : gabriel was very devoted to his father . when mr. bingham died -- adam : oh , i see . you do n't think i can fake that kind of devotion . sage : well , considering how you feel about your own father , no . adam : well , you know , i really do n't have a choice , do i ? pretending to be your old pal gabe -- that 's the only way i 'm gon na be able to get my family back . sage : did you ever think that chelsea may have moved on so maybe you should , too ? adam : move on to what , sage ? sage : a new life . you know , do n't just pretend to be gabriel . be him . forget about adam newman and all those people that he left behind . adam : that 's never gon na happen . christine : so , now you and nikki are co - hosting this engagement party together ? paul : well , nikki thought it would be a nice gift from both of dylan 's parents , but if you do n't want me to do it -- christine : no . no . i would never keep you from being involved in your son 's life . paul : well , thank you . christine : you 're welcome . i 'm just glad you do n't have to make up for lost time with this child . paul : you 're not upset that i told nikki about the baby , are you ? i mean , i thought since we had confirmation from the doctor , it did n't matter . christine : i am glad you 're excited . paul : i am excited . you know , it 's not my first kid , but it , uh -- it feels like it . it does . i hope i 'm good at it . christine : what are you talking about ? of course you 're gon na be good at it . paul : and how do you know that ? i 've never done it before . christine : i know you , and i know you are kind and loving and patient . paul : well , i was n't around . i bailed on my first two . christine : oh , come on . you are a good man , and you are going to be a wonderful father . paul : you really think so ? christine : yes , i do . i think this child is so lucky to have you as a dad . paul : mm . i think i 'm the lucky one . neil : hilary , baby , thank you so much for bringing me . hilary : oh , of course . do you want me to come in with you ? neil : oh , i wish you could , but this meeting is for people on the program only , so ... hilary : okay . i 'll see you after , then . neil : okay . is this it ? hilary : mm - hmm . it 's right here . neil : all right . thank you . who 'd like to start ? nikki : i 'm sorry . i really ca n't . it 's okay . you 'll talk when you 're ready . would anyone else like to speak ? neil : yeah . i 'd like to share .

[ scene_break ] nikolas : did n't realize you knew much about jake doe . laura : oh , well , news of helena 's stunts just seem to find a way of reaching me . elizabeth : [ chuckles ] laura : yeah . elizabeth , i feel awful about what your friend is going through , that he has absolutely no memory of his past ? no -- no friends ? no family ? i mean , come on , you guys . you got ta figure that somebody out there is looking for him . somebody who really loves him , really misses him . [ scene_break ] jason : sam , hey . sam : hi . jason : how you doing ? everything okay ? sam : yeah . yeah , yeah . everything 's fine . i ... actually came to pick up patrick , but he 's stuck in surgery . jason : ah . sam : what are you doing here ? is there another development with hayden ? no , actually . i 'm -- i 'm -- what did you say ? a development with hayden ? what do you mean ? what happened with hayden ? sam : oh , i assumed elizabeth would have told you . jason : no , she has n't talked about hayden in weeks . sam : okay , come with me . um , patrick told me that there was an increase in hayden 's vitals . they thought that she was gon na regain consciousness , but she went back to the way things were before . jason : oh . [ sighs ] i guess elizabeth did n't tell me because she did n't want me to get my hopes up . [ scene_break ] laura : the key to finding out who jake doe is may lie in ... helena 's motive for choosing him to begin with . i mean , how did he catch her eye ? what was it about jake that made him so valuable to her ? [ scene_break ] carly : so ... who gave josslyn the donor kidney ? lucas : sorry , i do n't really have any answers for you yet . josslyn obviously received a healthy compatible kidney that saved her life , but she did n't receive it from elizabeth and jason 's son . carly : i know that , but how can you unravel this for me ? lucas : well , there 's not much that i can easily do right now , but brad can do plenty . [ scene_break ] [ water runs in the shower ] [ scene_break ] carly : brad cooper ? lucas : yes , brad cooper , my fiancé . there may be some tests that he can run to narrow down the search parameters for the donor . carly : okay , well , he blackmailed his way into the lab manager position . that does n't really instill a lot of confidence . lucas : oh , but he 's okay for your baby brother to marry ? carly : you 're good for him , okay ? we 're talking about josslyn . you know what i mean . lucas : i do know what you mean , but brad 's changed a lot . i trust him with my life , carly . [ scene_break ] felix : see something you like , cooper ? brad : felix . felix : oh ! what the hell ? ! excuse me ? excuse me . the shower was obviously ocupado , yet there you were . what is it with you and creeping ? brad : [ scoffs ] i was n't creeping . felix : tell it to the judge ... or your fiancé . brad : [ sighs ] i swear , i was n't coming on to you . it w - was an accident . please do n't tell lucas . felix : [ sighs ] do n't get your jock in a knot . last thing i want is word of this tawdry ... encounter to get out , and donny sheldon getting the wrong idea . brad : there is no wrong idea to get , all right ? [ locker door opens ] brad : i was distracted , i - in my own world . felix : really ? what had you wandering blindly into another man 's ablutions ? brad : the fact that i 'm a liar of lies , lying to my fiancé . felix : [ sighs ] you did allude to some deep , dark secret you 've been keeping . but managed to wriggle out of confiding in me that time . no time like the present , cooper . tell me what you 're hiding from lucas . [ scene_break ] carly : okay , you trust brad . i trust you . bring him in on our investigation , but please promise me you 're gon na keep a close eye on him . lucas : absolutely . carly : [ sighs ] what if these you 're talking about do n't help ? we may never find out who saved josslyn 's life . [ scene_break ] sam : if you 're not here about hayden , then why are you here ? jason : i 'm , uh , i 'm here to give carly moral support . sam : oh , this is about josslyn ? i heard she passed her cancer screening with flying colors . jason : she did . josslyn is still cancer - free . look , i do n't think i should be the one to tell you this . sam : tell me what ? are you kidding me ? tell me , please . jason : josslyn did not get her kidney from jake . sam : [ scoffs ] what do you mean ? of course , she did . jason : no , there was a mistake . actually , there was a cover - up , really -- sam : no , there was no mistake . josslyn is alive because jake could n't survive . luke spencer killed him . jason : no , actually , he did n't . that 's not true . luke saved him . [ scene_break ] michael : so lucky and ethan -- they 're okay , though , right ? luke : would i be standing here talking to you if they were n't ? michael : does my mom know about this ? luke : i do n't know . are the two of you speaking again ? michael : [ sighs ] so -- so lucky and ethan were grabbed ... luke : [ coughs ] michael : ... just because frank smith wanted another shot at revenge ? luke : no , there was a little more to it than that . [ scene_break ] sabrina : all that pain elizabeth felt for so long , that hole in her heart where her son should have been . she carried that for nothing . tracy : i do n't think she 's thinking about that now that she 's got little jake back . sabrina : well , i would n't let my son out of sight , now that 's for sure . [ huffs ] i would hold my family close , and woe to anyone who tried to get between us again . [ scene_break ] laura : there must be something about jake doe that is personal to helena or maybe personal to one of her enemies . elizabeth : well , i do n't know about that , but jake has decided to move forward with his life , instead of spending his days wondering who he was before helena got her hands on him . laura : has he ? hmm ? elizabeth : oh , y - you know what ? i - i just remembered . jake 's blood work is probably done , so i 've got ta get to the hospital . come on , honey . it 's time to go . nikolas : you can -- you can take the book with you . spencer wo n't mind . jake : thanks . nikolas : yeah . laura : bye - bye , sweetie . nice to see you again . jake : bye . laura : [ chuckles ] and good luck with the tests . i 'm sure you know what 's right for him . elizabeth : of course . come on . laura : elizabeth seems troubled . is that so surprising ? nikolas : her world 's been turned upside down . well , yeah , i 'm sure that that 's a part of it , but what about the other part ? has to have something to do with the fact that you two are keeping a secret . do n't you think ? [ scene_break ] michael : little -- little jake ? jason 's son is alive ? luke : a helena cassadine special . she made sure everybody thought the kid was dead , and then she carried him off to cassadine island . michael : all this -- all this time ? it 's been years . luke : five years . michael : well , what about nikolas ? no matter what he 'd done with elq , there 's no way he could 've known his grandmother took -- took little jake . luke : i do n't think nikolas knew anything about it . the old crone 's got a few moves of her own , you know ? michael : [ sighs ] does my mom know ? luke : [ scoffs ] michael , i do n't know what your mother knows . lucky and i delivered jake to elizabeth , and ever since then , i 've been dealing with the scorched earth that was my relationship with tracy . just how fast the information has traveled about jake being alive and who has heard the news , i have no idea . michael : oh , i have to tell her . my grandmother knew so many people , i do n't ... wait . hold on . if -- if ... if jake 's alive , then how can josslyn be ? [ scene_break ] carly : thank you . thank you for trying . lucas : yeah , i just wish i could have offered you some real answers , but , listen , we 're not done , okay ? do n't lose hope . josslyn 's happy . she 's healthy . that 's all that matters . carly : she is . she is , and i 'm not . thanks . lucas : oh , my god . hold on . what is ... carly : [ laughs ] lucas : is that what i think it is ? carly : yeah . um ... sonny proposed a couple days ago , and , um , it was before the josslyn and jake thing happened . lucas : oh , my god . congratulations ! carly : thank you . lucas : i had no idea you guys were even thinking about getting married . carly : ah , neither did i. i was just as surprised about this ring as -- as you were about brad 's song and dance proposal at the nurses ' ball . lucas : [ chuckles ] carly : yeah . so ... well , yeah . we 're gon na get married for the fifth time , and mom 's head 's gon na explode . lucas : well , please thank sonny for his impeccable timing . there is not a day that goes by that mom does n't harass brad and me about all sorts of things related to the wedding , like venue , flowers , caterer , so ... carly : better you than me . lucas : oh , trust me , whenever she gets used to the idea that you guys are getting married again , she 's gon na be all over you guys , trying to help you `` organize `` your ceremony . carly : we can save everybody a lot of trouble and just have a double wedding . [ scene_break ] [ cell phone rings ] brad : ugh . my would - be mother - in - law wants to take lucas and me cake tasting . felix : ah , sounds so sweet . brad : no , buttercream is sweet . red velvet is sweet . i am the exact opposite . felix : ah , savory ? umami . brad : you are not helping . felix : look , man , i ca n't help you if you do n't tell me what 's going on . what is this lie you 're telling lucas ? brad : i ca n't say . and believe me , you do n't really wan na know . felix : okay , probably true , but the way it 's eating you , it 's my duty as a friend to hear you whether i wan na know or not . brad : why did i propose ? why did lucas accept ? and why the hell did i tell you i was hiding something ? felix : okay , look , look at it this way . confiding in you eased the pressure a bit and likely save you from barging in on someone else 's shower , say epiphany . imagine going to your wedding with broken kneecaps . brad : [ sighs ] felix : talk to me , brad . you can trust me . brad : [ sighs ] fine . do n't say i did n't warn you . [ scene_break ] tracy : when luke ... broke our engagement , i washed our hands of him . i ... had convinced myself that he ... thought of me as a bottomless bank account . sabrina : but now you know that he loved you the whole time . tracy : i do know that he loved me the whole time . he poured his heart out . he admitted his mistakes . he apologized sincerely , and he topped it off , asking me to marry him again . sabrina : i did n't see a ring on that finger . tracy : [ sighs ] sabrina : still thinking about it ? tracy : no . the thinking is over . luke and i are over . [ scene_break ] luke : the source of josslyn 's kidney transplant is still a mystery , but the important thing is she 's doing okay and against all odds , so is jake . michael : thank you . on behalf of my mom , my grandmother , everyone in jason 's family who loved jake , thank you for bringing him home . luke : michael , i 've left a lot of wreckage in my wake . recovering one little boy is not going to nearly begin to balance the scales . michael : well ... i can still be grateful . luke : [ sighs ] well , lucky deserves most of the credit anyway . michael : well , lucky 's not here . you are , and ... luke : do you have to be so damn gracious ? do n't you wan na take a shot at me for the way i 've treated tracy ? michael : that 's not why i 'm here . luke : no ? michael : no , i ... i came to ask your permission . luke : to do what ? michael : to tear down your family 's old home . [ scene_break ] nikolas : elizabeth and i are n't keeping any secrets . laura : do n't lie to me , nikolas . nikolas : why would i ? laura : i do n't know why . maybe because you need to protect elizabeth or protect yourself . or because you do n't want me to feel disappointed . look , i 'm sure you think that your motives make sense , but i need you to explain it to me . nikolas : just trying to enjoy her son 's return . laura : [ laughs ] yes , it 's a miracle , is n't it ? but miracles kind of run in that family , do n't they ? i mean , given that little jake 's biological father is just as alive as he is . [ scene_break ] sam : that is impossible . jake died over five years ago . jason : i 'm telling you that that child is alive and well and back home . [ telephone ringing in distance ] jason : i got to spend some time with him . he 's -- he 's a good kid , you know ? he 's ... he 's resilient . he 's handling an impossible situation a lot better than the adults around him . sam : uh ... you 're wrong . this is a trick . jason : it 's not a trick . it 's the same boy . he looks just like his pictures . he 's just five years older . elizabeth has her son back . sam : elizabeth 's son ? jake , that 's ... jason 's -- oh , my god . danny 's big brother is alive .

[ scene_break ] lucas : brad and me and you and sonny in a double wedding . carly : mm - hmm . it could be fun . lucas : yeah ... okay . carly : [ laughs ] lucas : listen , my wedding , double or not , is still such an abstract idea , it 's hard to really even take seriously . like , every time we talk about the wedding , brad gets all vague . you know , supposedly we 're moving full steam ahead , but then ... i do n't know . i still just feel like he 's holding something back from me . [ scene_break ] brad : well ? am i making this out to be bigger than it is ? felix : no , i think you got a pretty good handle on the mess you 're in . brad : [ sighs ] i knew it . i knew i should 've put a stop to this wedding . felix : you 're the one who started when you proposed to lucas . i mean , what were you thinking ? brad : [ scoffs ] it was the nurses ' ball . we were all dressed up and then drinking . come on . you saw lucas in his tux . okay . there was a stage and music , and i just got ... swept up in the whole romance of it all . felix : okay , correct me if i 'm wrong , but lucas gave you a chance to back out . brad : [ scoffs ] i do n't want to back out . okay , i ... i wan na spend the rest of my life with lucas . i just was n't thinking about the ramifications of proposing . like ... the actual wedding . felix : well , you better start thinking about the ramifications of keeping quiet . brad : what do you mean ? felix : you have to go directly to lucas and tell him the truth . brad : i ca n't do that . felix : you have to . [ scoffs ] trust me . holding on to secrets never keeps two people together .

[ scene_break ] sabrina : you heard from luke ? tracy : i saw him , and i spoke to him . it 's surprising how much confusion could get cleared up when somebody finally tells the truth . sabrina : so luke told you the truth . tracy : it turns out that he and ... laura ... did not ... reunite . luke 's sons were being held hostage and ... one of the kidnapper 's demands was that she break up our engagement . sabrina : why ? tracy : apparently , luke broke some woman 's heart , surprise , surprise , and she wanted closure . sabrina : so she kidnapped luke 's sons ? tracy : the details are so convoluted , it does n't matter . what does matter is that luke did n't wan na lie to me , and he regrets having done it . sabrina : you must be so relieved . tracy : i am glad to know that luke values me , but ... too much has happened to pick up where we left off . sabrina : what do you mean ? luke has changed radically over the last year , and even more so after the most recent event . sabrina : how ? tracy : five years ago , luke thought he killed a child in a traffic accident . it was actually elizabeth webber 's son jake . jake is alive , and luke was able to finally bring him home to his mother .

[ sighs ] i guess elizabeth did n't tell me because she did n't want me to get my hopes up . [ scene_break ] laura : the key to finding out who jake doe is may lie in ... helena 's motive for choosing him to begin with . i mean , how did he catch her eye ? what was it about jake that made him so valuable to her ? [ scene_break ] carly : so ... who gave josslyn the donor kidney ? lucas : sorry , i do n't really have any answers for you yet . josslyn obviously received a healthy compatible kidney that saved her life , but she did n't receive it from elizabeth and jason 's son . carly : i know that , but how can you unravel this for me ? lucas : well , there 's not much that i can easily do right now , but brad can do plenty . [ scene_break ] [ water runs in the shower ] [ scene_break ] carly : brad cooper ? lucas : yes , brad cooper , my fiancé . there may be some tests that he can run to narrow down the search parameters for the donor . carly : okay , well , he blackmailed his way into the lab manager position . that does n't really instill a lot of confidence . lucas : oh , but he 's okay for your baby brother to marry ? carly : you 're good for him , okay ? we 're talking about josslyn . you know what i mean . lucas : i do know what you mean , but brad 's changed a lot . i trust him with my life , carly .

[ locker door opens ] brad : i was distracted , i - in my own world . felix : really ? what had you wandering blindly into another man 's ablutions ? brad : the fact that i 'm a liar of lies , lying to my fiancé . felix : [ sighs ] you did allude to some deep , dark secret you 've been keeping . but managed to wriggle out of confiding in me that time . no time like the present , cooper . tell me what you 're hiding from lucas .

[ scene_break ] bill : so , why is it always me who 's supposed to take the high road ? why do n't you hold everybody to the same standard ? would you had been so forgiving if rick had fired shots at you instead of caroline ? maybe you would 've seen things a little differently . katie : oh , i am so tired of you using caroline to justify your actions . from what i 've seen , that girl can take care of herself . and do you really think that she 's going to be okay with what you 've done on her behalf ? bill : absolutely ! katie : oh , god ! you make me crazy ! yes , i hold you to a high standard , because i love you ! i expect a lot from you ! i expect you to do the right thing , and sometimes that 's hard . sometimes that means walking away from something . and maybe somebody gets the scoop first . and maybe we make a little less money . but you stand behind it because it 's the right thing to do . and holding up maya to public ridicule will never be right , bill . never .

[ sighs ] i came back . phyllis : why ? to see kelly ? jack : 'cause i was worried about you . [ breathing heavily ] i 'm sorry i hurt you . phyllis : [ crying ] which time ? sorry . i do n't know why i said that . i 'm sorry . jack : it 's because it 's true . ever since you came back , i 've been trying to protect you , trying to keep you from harm , but i 've done exactly the opposite . this whole stupid plan to ... cause you to have an irrational outburst . [ breathing heavily ] i should have known it was a bad idea . it was wrong . i was wrong . phyllis : what are you saying ? are you saying you believe me ? you believe i 'm not crazy ? victor : listen , you two , stop talking , okay ? jack , i know you 're not saying everything . jack : [ breathing heavily ] dylan : they said the building 's too unstable . the head of operations has called it to halt until they can reinforce what 's left of the building . nick : it 's my building . i 'm not leaving here . dylan : i 'm just saying that 's not a good option . nick : my parents are in here , dylan ! i got to find them . dylan : i understand that , but if we keep digging , we 're putting a lot of lives at risk , including our own . nick : i do n't care . dylan : yes , you do . think about your kids . [ crumbling ] come on . come on , man . we got to get out of here . let rescue do their job . nick , come on ! nick : come on . devon : i ca n't tell if she 's breathing . come on , baby . come on . come on . baby . she 's alive . stay with me . stay with me . hey .

[ voice breaking ] my god , i 'm so sorry . i 'm -- you 're right . [ sniffles ] i did need you . i 'm scared . i 'm scared . [ sighs ] practically out on your feet . i 'm who should be taking care of you . michael : no . we need to take care of each other . listen . i just got word from paul . the weather service is predicting a break in the storm , so they 're prepping a search helicopter to be ready as soon as its safe . lauren : okay , what else did he say ? michael : their plane went down in an isolated area . but there are smart people on that plane . they will know that their best chance is to stay exactly where they are , right ? jill : devon , we are in the middle of nowhere , okay ? you ca n't just go trudging off in your designer loafers . devon : i really need everyone to be on board with me on this . jill : no , it 's crazy ! cane : listen , guys . we need to get together our warmest clothes . we need some supplies . jill : you 're not serious about this . devon : we 're not just gon na wait and hope . cane : jill , i think he might be right . jill : what ? you 're gon na let him risk his life ? cane : it does n't have to be him . it could be any one of us . neil : this is absolutely unbelievable . everybody arguing . why do n't you just put it to a vote ? devon : no , we do n't need to put it to a vote . cane , you have a wife and kids . i 'm not gon na let you take the risk . i 'm younger and stronger than colin , and , you know , you just got your eyesight back . i 'm not gon na risk you losing it again . cane : all right , listen . i agree with him on this . devon : i make the most sense . jill : no , it makes no sense ! devon : jill , please . jill : i 'm gon na just say what everybody is thinking . you and hilary are in love , and it came at a great cost to all of us ! devon : and i need to get her help . jill : and you 're not going to , and you know it . you 're just determined to do this as some sort of a penance . listen , this would be suicide , okay ? and i 'm not going to pretend to be on board with it . no matter how i feel about you and hilary . we 're in the middle of nowhere . we do n't know what direction to go in . colin : not so . my dear . [ chuckles ] i found a map . avery : thanks for making the coffee . first responders have been at it all night . sharon : well , it was good to feel like i was doing something useful . avery : that 's a pretty nasty cut that you have . i did n't -- it was so crazy last night , i did n't ask you how you got it . sharon : um ... it was icy and um ... you know , it was just one of those things . a little accident . it 's not as bad as it looks . avery : what did you mean before ? sharon : excuse me ? avery : you said that was some dream that i was having . dylan ! oh , my god . dylan : hey . we had to stop digging while the reinforced what was left of the building . it was getting too dangerous . avery : did you find nikki or victor ? nick : they 're trapped along with everybody else . in what condition , we have no way of knowing . sharon : i know how hard this must be . nick : what are you doing here ? where 's faith ? sharon : she 's with a sitter . i did n't want to bring her out in this again . nick : what happened to your head ? dylan : the roads were terrible last night , and sharon wanted to get faith to the club , so -- sharon : and i -- i lost control of the car . i skidded off the road . nick : every agency in town was telling you to stay off the roads . our city is like a disaster area . why would you bring faith out into this ? sharon : i called you . i left you a message . nick : did you ever stop to consider how dangerous that might be ? you risked our daughter 's life , sharon . dylan : why do n't you let her talk instead of jumping down her throat ? abby : what , you think i 'm the motive ? where 's that coming from ? mariah : i saw you with your tongue down austin 's throat last night . abby : you were loopy on drugged punch . mariah : i was not hallucinating . abby : we were all out of our minds . mariah : i do n't hear you denying it , abby . abby : me and austin -- that 's ridiculous . and the whole night is a vague case after fen 's stupid prank with the punch . at a certain point , none of us can be held accountable for our actions . for all i know , i could have kissed you . mariah : you 're not my type . abby : the point is , is if i did kiss austin ... well , you 've kissed him , too . mariah : no , no , no . that was different . abby : what ? what ? you were n't yourself ? mariah : it happened once . and it really bugged you , did n't it ? abby : what ? that you kissed austin ? well , yeah , because of summer . mariah : something tells me this is not the first time that you 've locked lips with her husband . austin did n't look surprised or like he minded at all . in fact , he was just as into it as you were . abby : i think you 've been reading way too much of that weird fan fiction . mariah : that 's it . that 's the reason why you invited all of us up here for valentine 's day . so you and austin could be alone right under his wife 's nose . abby : seriously ? the lines between reality and fanfic have really started to blur . mariah : oh , my god . it never made sense why you would throw this party and come solo . you do n't strike me as the type of girl who would go long without a man , even if it is a married one . abby : you do n't know what you 're talking about . mariah : fine . maybe somebody else saw you and austin last night . why do n't i go ask them ? abby : no . mariah : so it 's true . you and austin . the party , making out , all of it . abby : yes . mariah : oh , my god . look at you . abby newman , putting the `` ho `` in `` home wrecker . `` abby : have some respect , mariah . the man 's dead . mariah : and you have been sitting here holding his wife 's hand , comforting her in her time of need , becoming her new best friend ! abby : she 's my niece . mariah : way to keep it in the family . abby : it 's called compassion , mariah . mariah : i think summer would have a very , very different word for it . abby : really ? well , you 're gon na get all moralistic on me after everything you did to me ? everything you did to sharon ? i know that you would like nothing more than to go blab this to everyone . to go be gossip girl . you know what ? i do n't care . i 've been trotted out to the press for a lot worse than this , but think about summer . [ sniffles ] think about what you 're handing to the police . it 's motive , it 's -- it 's -- it 's the perfect motive . summer killed austin because he was cheating on her . mariah : or it 's the perfect motive for you to have killed him . because he would n't leave her . kevin : what did any of us have to gain from austin 's death ? that 's the question we need to be asking . fenmore : oh , my god . we are wasting time , okay ? the simplest explanation is usually the right one . kevin : there is nothing simple about this , fen ! somebody 's dead ! summer 's husband ! a guy we all knew , bludgeoned to death ! he was here , now he 's gone . we do n't know how , we do n't know why . you know , the simplest explanation does n't mean being simple - minded , ignoring facts , not asking important questions . courtney : why do n't we all just take a breath ? kevin : i 'll tell you what , the person who would n't want to figure this out is the person who stuffed him in that armoire . fenmore : is that an accusation ? kevin : i 'm just saying that maybe the simplest explanation has to do with the guy who drugged the punch ! summer : okay , you know , just stop it , both of you ! please ! noah : you 're at each other 's throats . knock it off . you 're family . you 're scared , you 're mad . you 're wondering how the hell we got stuck in this situation . i get it . we all feel the same way . but we need to keep our heads . [ cell phone beeps ] courtney : phone service has been restored . they 're clearing the roads . they know we 're here . they 're going to be sending help . we need to be proactive and take control of the situation . noah : we can not be seen fighting with each other . courtney : our lives and our futures depend on us all being on the same page . before i call the station , i need to know ... are we ? lauren : these are the times when we have to really stick together . i 'm so sorry . michael : for being mean to a cancer victim ? lauren : [ laughs ] yes . we 're taking it out on you . michael : it was about your sister . i knew that . lauren : i ca n't believe this is happening , you know ? i just keep asking myself `` why ? `` michael : you know , katherine used to call jill , among other things , a tough broad . lauren : [ chuckles ] that 's right . she 's a fighter , all right . michael : yeah . lauren : i think i have some scars to prove it . michael : you and a whole lot of other people . lauren : yeah . she has that survivor instinct , you know ? she does n't quit . she always finds a way , and god help anybody who gets in her way or gives up on her watch . michael : your sister is definitely someone you would like to have with you in a crisis . they all are . everybody on that plane . it 's a very capable group . sweetheart , listen to me . there are some things that you just ca n't control . and you can drive yourself crazy wondering why . it does n't do any good . i 'll tell you what we can do . we can pray and hope for the best . but we have to be prepared for the worst . lauren : [ sighs ] jack : what is it you think i 'm not saying , victor ? victor : just talk to me about adam , jack . jack : i said his name . who knows why ? victor : you said more than his name . you kept on rambling on and on . what is it about adam and his death you 're not telling me ? jack ? jack : [ breathing heavily ] sharon : we had lost power at the house , we were running out of firewood . faith was getting scared . i thought it would be better and safer to ride out the storm at the club . dylan : and she had a fender bender , like dozens of other people . sharon : i called you . did n't you get my message ? nick : it 's a matter of judgment . dylan : well , maybe if you were worried about putting her snow tires back on the car instead of figuring out ways to take faith from her . avery : that 's not fair . dylan : no , you know what 's not fair is that nick is gon na take something like this and twist it around . nick : why are you suddenly so involved ? dylan : i saw her car abandoned by the side of the road , so i went to sharon 's house to check on her and faith , who 's fine , by the way , but sharon was about to go back out into the storm and try to get the car by herself . avery : why ? dylan : so nick would n't find out . because of this exact reaction . sharon : yes , i knew that you would be concerned . dylan : sharon , you did exactly what you were supposed to do to protect faith . and , actually , i told sharon she was n't giving you the benefit of the doubt , but she was so upset and afraid that i decided that i was going to tell you i was driving the car . avery : wait . you would have done that ? you would have lied ? dylan : after what 's been done to sharon ? yes . nikki : is that true , jack ? do you know something about adam ? jack : [ breathing heavily ] victor : give him that . we do n't know what 's gon na happen to us . victor : oh , sweetheart , please do n't . nikki : he has a right to know . jack : adam is ... adam -- adam is -- [ rumbling ] phyllis : did you hear that ? nikki : oh , my god . phyllis : hello ? nikki : hello ! victor : hello ! jack : hello ! how many of you are there ? nikki : oh , my god . victor : four of us ! one person needs immediate medical attention . all right . listen , we 're gon na bring you out one at a time . nice and slow , okay ? victor : all right . nikki : okay . all right . nikki : thank god . courtney : chief , you 're cutting out . i said there was an accident . chief ? line went dead . kevin : before you could mention that we have a dead body on our hands . courtney : squad car 's gon na be coming . noah : okay . there 's no going back now . we have to get our story straight . mariah : austin slipped and fell . it 's not rocket science . courtney : yeah , but it 's forensic science . and the most basic type of police work . if this story 's gon na hold up , it ca n't just be logical and consistent . kevin : it 's how we tell it . austin was concerned about the amount of snow falling , that the roof could n't support it . abby : he became obsessed with it . it was like a phobia . mariah : the snow ? abby : with the roof caving in . it 's like something from his childhood . kevin : that 's too much information . mariah : stupid . i figured you for a better liar , abby . courtney : look , just answer their questions . volunteer nothing . you understand ? kevin : yeah , if we say more than that , we start to look guilty . mariah : people start running their mouths . noah : okay , let 's just focus , okay ? is there a ladder on the property ? abby : in the storage shed . noah : okay . so , i went to help austin get the ladder . i 'm gon na keep it really simple . i 'm gon na say it was just the two of us out there . and nobody else was around when austin fell . you do n't know anything about how it happened . colin : all right . near as i can tell , we are back here with this hill to the left and there 's a roadway . cane : that 's about eight miles from there to there , you think ? colin : probably 10 . jill : yeah , assuming he 's headed in the right direction . devon : i got this , guys . i 'll be fine . jill : hey . devon : yeah ? hey . jill : you be careful . you take care of yourself . and do n't forget there 's no shame in coming back to us . devon : there 's too much at stake , okay ? colin : listen . devon : yeah . colin : all this -- this snow is going to make keeping your bearings tricky . keep the hill to your left always . cane : this is about all i could find , okay ? devon : thank you . cane : good luck . devon : thanks . i 'll see you guys soon . cane : all right . lily : hey . do n't do anything stupid , okay ? like dying . devon : nobody 's gon na die . we 'll be fine . just please take care of her . okay ? noah : the story 's clean . simple . courtney : there 's very little room to mix up details 'cause noah was the only one who went outside with austin to go get a ladder . noah : and i did n't even really see him fall . courtney : nobody knows exactly what happened . kevin : which is the truth . most convincing lies usually contain some truth . courtney : so just tell them what you were really doing last night . summer : even the part about drinking the drugged punch ? courtney : we were all partying . it 's gon na work to our favor that all the details are a little fuzzy . kevin : hey . are you remembering something ? fenmore : no , i 'm not . i 'm just trying to remember . i 'm gon na -- i 'm gon na bury this , and i 'll go get the ladder to set this up . nick : is that true ? sharon : i have realized i could n't lie about who was driving the car . i could n't put dylan in that position . nick : do you really believe i would have used this to take faith away from you ? sharon : nick , i 'm at your mercy . you get to decide if and when i see our daughter . being with faith is now a privilege , not a right , and i 'm constantly walking on eggshells worried that i 'm going to lose that privilege . nick : i do n't want you to live like that . make you feel like i 'm watching every move you make . i do n't want to live like that . sharon , you did nothing wrong . i 'm sorry . i 'm just exhausted . i 've been digging in concrete and metal all night trying to find my parents . i do n't know if they 're alive . sharon : i know this is n't your fault . nick : i feel terrible that i made you question yourself like that . i 'm sorry . mom ! nikki : oh , son ! avery : phyllis . sharon : avery , i just -- i want to say i 'm sorry that dylan got caught up in my mess . avery : he 's a compassionate man . sharon : will you thank him for me ? avery : sure . oh , my god . nikki : they want to check us out here to see if we need to go to the hospital , but i 'm fine . avery : you ? phyllis : i 'm fine . i 'm fine . considering the circumstances . it 's jack who needed medical attention . his heart stopped . avery : oh , my god . phyllis : yeah . he made it through . it was absolutely awful . he was in stable condition when helped arrived thanks to victor . nick : dad ? what happened ? nikki : he gave jack cpr . he saved his life . nick : dad saved jack 's life ? victor : okay , nikki and phyllis are safely out . jack : good . victor : now we go out one at a time , all right ? jack : got it . go ahead . victor : no , you go first . jack : no way . victor : jack , you go first . you need medical attention . jack : get out of here . you saved my life . again , as you so quickly pointed out . i 'm not going to spend the rest of my life hearing i got out of here first . victor : jack , come to your senses now ! [ rumbling ] jack : go ! devon : i 'm gon na spend the rest of my life trying to make this up to you . hey , baby . hey . i love you . you 'll make it through this , okay ? i 'm gon na take off just for a little while . i 'm gon na go find out . and then we 're gon na get you into a hospital , get you nice and warm , okay ? hilary : devon . promise me you 'll come back . devon : i promise . i promise . let me get the map , guys . colin : yeah , it was right -- what the ... ? it 's gone . devon : so is neil . summer : how am i supposed to hold it together ? noah : you do n't have to . okay ? you lost your husband . kevin : he died in a tragic accident and it was this terrible , random thing . courtney : you do n't have to try and hide what you 're feeling . summer : okay . noah : you can do this . summer : yeah . i can . i will . courtney : there is one question that the police are gon na ask us that we all need to think about . courtney : when was the last time we saw austin alive ? abby : you 're like the perfect husband . [ chuckles ] austin : thanks , i think ? abby : it 's so annoying . i just -- i mean that it 's really sweet how you created christmas for summer when you thought you guys might not be together . austin : oh . she deserved it . and she needs something to help her get through that rough patch . abby : wow . [ laughs ] just , um , that has n't been my experience with men . do you have a brother ? [ both chuckle ] austin : i 'm sorry . actually , i really am . um ... you deserve someone who treats you how you deserve to be treated . fenmore : hey . kevin : what 's the matter ? fenmore : austin . summer : what ? noah : fen , what about him ? what is it ? fenmore : his body is not there . he 's gone . avery : i 'd like to talk about what happened with sharon . dylan : uh , sure . later ? avery : when ? dylan : when we know everybody 's safe and sound ? dylan : here you go . nikki : thank you . phyllis : thanks .

[ chuckles ] i found a map . avery : thanks for making the coffee . first responders have been at it all night . sharon : well , it was good to feel like i was doing something useful . avery : that 's a pretty nasty cut that you have . i did n't -- it was so crazy last night , i did n't ask you how you got it . sharon : um ... it was icy and um ... you know , it was just one of those things . a little accident . it 's not as bad as it looks . avery : what did you mean before ? sharon : excuse me ? avery : you said that was some dream that i was having . dylan ! oh , my god . dylan : hey . we had to stop digging while the reinforced what was left of the building . it was getting too dangerous . avery : did you find nikki or victor ? nick : they 're trapped along with everybody else . in what condition , we have no way of knowing . sharon : i know how hard this must be . nick : what are you doing here ? where 's faith ? sharon : she 's with a sitter . i did n't want to bring her out in this again . nick : what happened to your head ? dylan : the roads were terrible last night , and sharon wanted to get faith to the club , so -- sharon : and i -- i lost control of the car . i skidded off the road . nick : every agency in town was telling you to stay off the roads . our city is like a disaster area . why would you bring faith out into this ? sharon : i called you . i left you a message . nick : did you ever stop to consider how dangerous that might be ? you risked our daughter 's life , sharon . dylan : why do n't you let her talk instead of jumping down her throat ? abby : what , you think i 'm the motive ? where 's that coming from ? mariah : i saw you with your tongue down austin 's throat last night . abby : you were loopy on drugged punch . mariah : i was not hallucinating . abby : we were all out of our minds . mariah : i do n't hear you denying it , abby . abby : me and austin -- that 's ridiculous . and the whole night is a vague case after fen 's stupid prank with the punch . at a certain point , none of us can be held accountable for our actions . for all i know , i could have kissed you . mariah : you 're not my type . abby : the point is , is if i did kiss austin ... well , you 've kissed him , too . mariah : no , no , no . that was different . abby : what ? what ? you were n't yourself ? mariah : it happened once . and it really bugged you , did n't it ? abby : what ? that you kissed austin ? well , yeah , because of summer . mariah : something tells me this is not the first time that you 've locked lips with her husband . austin did n't look surprised or like he minded at all . in fact , he was just as into it as you were . abby : i think you 've been reading way too much of that weird fan fiction . mariah : that 's it . that 's the reason why you invited all of us up here for valentine 's day . so you and austin could be alone right under his wife 's nose . abby : seriously ? the lines between reality and fanfic have really started to blur . mariah : oh , my god . it never made sense why you would throw this party and come solo . you do n't strike me as the type of girl who would go long without a man , even if it is a married one . abby : you do n't know what you 're talking about . mariah : fine . maybe somebody else saw you and austin last night . why do n't i go ask them ? abby : no . mariah : so it 's true . you and austin . the party , making out , all of it . abby : yes . mariah : oh , my god . look at you . abby newman , putting the `` ho `` in `` home wrecker . `` abby : have some respect , mariah . the man 's dead . mariah : and you have been sitting here holding his wife 's hand , comforting her in her time of need , becoming her new best friend ! abby : she 's my niece . mariah : way to keep it in the family . abby : it 's called compassion , mariah . mariah : i think summer would have a very , very different word for it . abby : really ? well , you 're gon na get all moralistic on me after everything you did to me ? everything you did to sharon ? i know that you would like nothing more than to go blab this to everyone . to go be gossip girl . you know what ? i do n't care . i 've been trotted out to the press for a lot worse than this , but think about summer . [ sniffles ] think about what you 're handing to the police . it 's motive , it 's -- it 's -- it 's the perfect motive . summer killed austin because he was cheating on her . mariah : or it 's the perfect motive for you to have killed him . because he would n't leave her . kevin : what did any of us have to gain from austin 's death ? that 's the question we need to be asking . fenmore : oh , my god . we are wasting time , okay ? the simplest explanation is usually the right one . kevin : there is nothing simple about this , fen ! somebody 's dead ! summer 's husband ! a guy we all knew , bludgeoned to death ! he was here , now he 's gone . we do n't know how , we do n't know why . you know , the simplest explanation does n't mean being simple - minded , ignoring facts , not asking important questions . courtney : why do n't we all just take a breath ? kevin : i 'll tell you what , the person who would n't want to figure this out is the person who stuffed him in that armoire . fenmore : is that an accusation ? kevin : i 'm just saying that maybe the simplest explanation has to do with the guy who drugged the punch ! summer : okay , you know , just stop it , both of you ! please ! noah : you 're at each other 's throats . knock it off . you 're family . you 're scared , you 're mad . you 're wondering how the hell we got stuck in this situation . i get it . we all feel the same way . but we need to keep our heads . [ cell phone beeps ] courtney : phone service has been restored . they 're clearing the roads . they know we 're here . they 're going to be sending help . we need to be proactive and take control of the situation . noah : we can not be seen fighting with each other . courtney : our lives and our futures depend on us all being on the same page . before i call the station , i need to know ... are we ? lauren : these are the times when we have to really stick together . i 'm so sorry . michael : for being mean to a cancer victim ? lauren : [ laughs ] yes . we 're taking it out on you . michael : it was about your sister . i knew that . lauren : i ca n't believe this is happening , you know ? i just keep asking myself `` why ? `` michael : you know , katherine used to call jill , among other things , a tough broad . lauren : [ chuckles ] that 's right . she 's a fighter , all right . michael : yeah . lauren : i think i have some scars to prove it . michael : you and a whole lot of other people . lauren : yeah . she has that survivor instinct , you know ? she does n't quit . she always finds a way , and god help anybody who gets in her way or gives up on her watch . michael : your sister is definitely someone you would like to have with you in a crisis . they all are . everybody on that plane . it 's a very capable group . sweetheart , listen to me . there are some things that you just ca n't control . and you can drive yourself crazy wondering why . it does n't do any good . i 'll tell you what we can do . we can pray and hope for the best . but we have to be prepared for the worst . lauren : [ sighs ] jack : what is it you think i 'm not saying , victor ? victor : just talk to me about adam , jack . jack : i said his name . who knows why ? victor : you said more than his name . you kept on rambling on and on . what is it about adam and his death you 're not telling me ? jack ? jack : [ breathing heavily ] sharon : we had lost power at the house , we were running out of firewood . faith was getting scared . i thought it would be better and safer to ride out the storm at the club . dylan : and she had a fender bender , like dozens of other people . sharon : i called you . did n't you get my message ? nick : it 's a matter of judgment . dylan : well , maybe if you were worried about putting her snow tires back on the car instead of figuring out ways to take faith from her . avery : that 's not fair . dylan : no , you know what 's not fair is that nick is gon na take something like this and twist it around . nick : why are you suddenly so involved ? dylan : i saw her car abandoned by the side of the road , so i went to sharon 's house to check on her and faith , who 's fine , by the way , but sharon was about to go back out into the storm and try to get the car by herself . avery : why ? dylan : so nick would n't find out . because of this exact reaction . sharon : yes , i knew that you would be concerned . dylan : sharon , you did exactly what you were supposed to do to protect faith . and , actually , i told sharon she was n't giving you the benefit of the doubt , but she was so upset and afraid that i decided that i was going to tell you i was driving the car . avery : wait . you would have done that ? you would have lied ? dylan : after what 's been done to sharon ? yes . nikki : is that true , jack ? do you know something about adam ? jack : [ breathing heavily ] victor : give him that . we do n't know what 's gon na happen to us . victor : oh , sweetheart , please do n't . nikki : he has a right to know . jack : adam is ... adam -- adam is -- [ rumbling ] phyllis : did you hear that ? nikki : oh , my god . phyllis : hello ? nikki : hello ! victor : hello ! jack : hello ! how many of you are there ? nikki : oh , my god . victor : four of us ! one person needs immediate medical attention . all right . listen , we 're gon na bring you out one at a time . nice and slow , okay ? victor : all right . nikki : okay . all right . nikki : thank god . courtney : chief , you 're cutting out . i said there was an accident . chief ? line went dead . kevin : before you could mention that we have a dead body on our hands . courtney : squad car 's gon na be coming . noah : okay . there 's no going back now . we have to get our story straight . mariah : austin slipped and fell . it 's not rocket science . courtney : yeah , but it 's forensic science . and the most basic type of police work . if this story 's gon na hold up , it ca n't just be logical and consistent . kevin : it 's how we tell it . austin was concerned about the amount of snow falling , that the roof could n't support it . abby : he became obsessed with it . it was like a phobia . mariah : the snow ? abby : with the roof caving in . it 's like something from his childhood . kevin : that 's too much information . mariah : stupid . i figured you for a better liar , abby . courtney : look , just answer their questions . volunteer nothing . you understand ? kevin : yeah , if we say more than that , we start to look guilty . mariah : people start running their mouths . noah : okay , let 's just focus , okay ? is there a ladder on the property ? abby : in the storage shed . noah : okay . so , i went to help austin get the ladder . i 'm gon na keep it really simple . i 'm gon na say it was just the two of us out there . and nobody else was around when austin fell . you do n't know anything about how it happened . colin : all right . near as i can tell , we are back here with this hill to the left and there 's a roadway . cane : that 's about eight miles from there to there , you think ? colin : probably 10 . jill : yeah , assuming he 's headed in the right direction . devon : i got this , guys . i 'll be fine . jill : hey . devon : yeah ? hey . jill : you be careful . you take care of yourself . and do n't forget there 's no shame in coming back to us . devon : there 's too much at stake , okay ? colin : listen . devon : yeah . colin : all this -- this snow is going to make keeping your bearings tricky . keep the hill to your left always . cane : this is about all i could find , okay ? devon : thank you . cane : good luck . devon : thanks . i 'll see you guys soon . cane : all right . lily : hey . do n't do anything stupid , okay ? like dying . devon : nobody 's gon na die . we 'll be fine . just please take care of her . okay ? noah : the story 's clean . simple . courtney : there 's very little room to mix up details 'cause noah was the only one who went outside with austin to go get a ladder . noah : and i did n't even really see him fall . courtney : nobody knows exactly what happened . kevin : which is the truth . most convincing lies usually contain some truth . courtney : so just tell them what you were really doing last night . summer : even the part about drinking the drugged punch ? courtney : we were all partying . it 's gon na work to our favor that all the details are a little fuzzy . kevin : hey . are you remembering something ? fenmore : no , i 'm not . i 'm just trying to remember . i 'm gon na -- i 'm gon na bury this , and i 'll go get the ladder to set this up . nick : is that true ? sharon : i have realized i could n't lie about who was driving the car . i could n't put dylan in that position . nick : do you really believe i would have used this to take faith away from you ? sharon : nick , i 'm at your mercy . you get to decide if and when i see our daughter . being with faith is now a privilege , not a right , and i 'm constantly walking on eggshells worried that i 'm going to lose that privilege . nick : i do n't want you to live like that . make you feel like i 'm watching every move you make . i do n't want to live like that . sharon , you did nothing wrong . i 'm sorry . i 'm just exhausted . i 've been digging in concrete and metal all night trying to find my parents . i do n't know if they 're alive . sharon : i know this is n't your fault . nick : i feel terrible that i made you question yourself like that . i 'm sorry . mom ! nikki : oh , son ! avery : phyllis . sharon : avery , i just -- i want to say i 'm sorry that dylan got caught up in my mess . avery : he 's a compassionate man . sharon : will you thank him for me ? avery : sure . oh , my god . nikki : they want to check us out here to see if we need to go to the hospital , but i 'm fine . avery : you ? phyllis : i 'm fine . i 'm fine . considering the circumstances . it 's jack who needed medical attention . his heart stopped . avery : oh , my god . phyllis : yeah . he made it through . it was absolutely awful . he was in stable condition when helped arrived thanks to victor . nick : dad ? what happened ? nikki : he gave jack cpr . he saved his life . nick : dad saved jack 's life ? victor : okay , nikki and phyllis are safely out . jack : good . victor : now we go out one at a time , all right ? jack : got it . go ahead . victor : no , you go first . jack : no way . victor : jack , you go first . you need medical attention . jack : get out of here . you saved my life . again , as you so quickly pointed out . i 'm not going to spend the rest of my life hearing i got out of here first . victor : jack , come to your senses now ! [ rumbling ] jack : go ! devon : i 'm gon na spend the rest of my life trying to make this up to you . hey , baby . hey . i love you . you 'll make it through this , okay ? i 'm gon na take off just for a little while . i 'm gon na go find out . and then we 're gon na get you into a hospital , get you nice and warm , okay ? hilary : devon . promise me you 'll come back . devon : i promise . i promise . let me get the map , guys . colin : yeah , it was right -- what the ... ? it 's gone . devon : so is neil . summer : how am i supposed to hold it together ? noah : you do n't have to . okay ? you lost your husband . kevin : he died in a tragic accident and it was this terrible , random thing . courtney : you do n't have to try and hide what you 're feeling . summer : okay . noah : you can do this . summer : yeah . i can . i will . courtney : there is one question that the police are gon na ask us that we all need to think about . courtney : when was the last time we saw austin alive ? abby : you 're like the perfect husband .

[ chuckles ] hope : move slower than you think you should . i think , really , that 's just it . just take a pause and a breath between each pose , and that way the photographer can really capture that moment . okay . let 's , uh , look at these accessories . ivy : yes . wyatt : mm - hmm . liam : seem to be getting ... along . wyatt : [ chuckles ] yeah . of course . i mean , you know , no one wants the show to be more of a success than hope . liam : true . wyatt : and they 'll be great together . just like the two of you are . you and ivy . liam : down , boy . wyatt : what ? what ? you do n't agree ? liam : [ scoffs ] i agree . i think ivy 's terrific . wyatt : terrific ? terrific is a fall - away jump shot from the three - point line . you do n't want to let that one get away . liam : like i did with hope ? wyatt : okay , i 'm just saying if you find yourself in a -- how should i put this ? -- a romantic ambiance -- that 's french for ambiance -- take advantage of it , okay ? hmm ? hope : okay . we should get to dam square . wyatt : yeah , that 's right . show time . are you ready for this ?

eric : he went with her to amsterdam -- the four of them . taylor : [ chuckles ] well , they must all get along . eric : i hope so . they have a lot of work to do . hope : this looks fabulous . liam : was that -- was that antoine from the observer i just saw ?

[ cellphone chimes ] [ doorbell rings ] abby : oh , do you have something better to you ? summer : do you ? i mean , 'cause , my iced tea could use a little more ice . thank you . abby : oh . jack : okay , uh ... we are here to discuss the abbott exchange / jabot merger and the introduction of the new company . abby , i 'm glad you 're here , as a board member and a loyal daughter . abby : well , i think this is a fantastic idea , and i would love to offer any insight or support that i can . jack : summer is here as part of the marketing and influencer team . we are counting on them big time when it comes to our social - media rollout . ashley : yeah , jack told me all about your growing online presence . i ca n't wait to hear your ideas . theo : i have to say , i was intrigued by your call . devon : well , uh , aside from what happened at kyle and lola 's party , i , uh -- i got to say that i 've been impressed with your instincts and your knowledge of the music industry . so , with ana gone , i 'd like to offer you a full - time role at lp . theo : wow . um ... i 'm flattered . you know i love the music industry . devon : but ? theo : but [ sighs ] i see myself as more of an image builder . for musical artists , but also for other creatives -- influencers , business moguls . anyone who needs to be shaped or reinvented for public consumption . devon : okay . so you turning me down ? theo : no , i -- i was gon na suggest i might be a better fit at power communications . devon : at power communications ? in what capacity ? theo : i know you recently put mariah in charge , however ... devon : however what ? you can say what 's on your mind . summer : so , i was thinking that we could send our top influences to the brick- and - mortar stores to , you know , interact with customers and then demonstrate our new product lines , and maybe even live - stream it . jack : i like it . i like it . it 's great . abby : and during each live stream , we can tease the announcement of the new company . ashley : that 's fantastic . that 's how you attract more followers and create anticipation . nice -- billy : sorry i 'm late . jack : we , uh , waited as long as we could , and then we had to get started . ashley : is everything okay ? billy : yeah . it 's fine . i 'm just not sure what the point of this meeting is . i think it 's a little too early to be discussing social - media strategy . the merger has n't even gone through yet . ashley : but it is going to go through . billy : which is why we need to pump the brakes and rethink this . ashley : okay , i do n't understand why you 're still doubting something that is going to be demonstratively good for jabot . billy : actually , ashley , i 'm not doubting that it makes business sense . i 'm doubting you . summer : um , why do n't i just meet you back at the office ? abby : i need to check on some things in the kitchen , so , um ... summer : okay . abby : yeah . ashley : so it does n't matter to you that this is what our father would want ? billy : oh , really ? with the dad card already ? look , our dad cared about our family , but he was a shrewd businessman , and he would n't tolerate somebody that betrayed him . unlike jack , i 'm finding it difficult to ignore that . jack : no one 's ignoring anything . a lot has happened since -- billy : jack , she tried to burn our company to the ground and take us with it . ashley : you 're taking this too personally . billy : 'cause it 's only a matter of time before you turn your back on us and stab us again . you expect us to believe that you come into town and you 're a different person ? i do n't buy it . people do n't change , ashley . jack : okay . what 's really going on here ? additional sponsorship billy : i do n't trust her , jack . and you should n't , either . ashley : billy , everything that happened back then at jabot , it was a very complex situation . you know that . billy : so you 're gon na make excuses for yourself now , ashley ? is that what you 're doing ? ashley : no , i 'm not . i did some things that i regret . i 'm trying to make it right . billy : well , some things ca n't be fixed . ashley : you know , i am not the only one sitting at this table that made mistakes , am i ? as i recall , billy , you decided to shred the patent documents . billy : you 're so typical . you just turn it back around on me . ashley : that 's not what i 'm doing . jack : let 's all take a deep breath -- billy : do not patronize me , jack ! jack : no one 's patronizing you . i am suggesting that perhaps there is more here than meets the eye . could your reaction have something to do with what we discussed the other day ? billy : i told you that in confidence . i 'll just add you to the list of people that i ca n't trust . ashley : what is going on with him ? is he gambling again ? jack : no . [ sighs ] i -- look , i need to respect his wishes and not discuss it any more . ashley : okay . whatever it is , though , you 've got to fix it , because this merger could be so beneficial not just to the company , but to our family . billy has the power to put the whole thing in jeopardy . jack : okay . i will talk to billy . theo : i like mariah . she 's smart and enthusiastic . but she 's still green . kind of like ana . devon : you saying that i made a mistake by hiring her ? theo : no . well , i mean , maybe for that particular job . look , this is n't personal . but the fact is , mariah was talk - show host before you put her in that position , and she 's still learning the pr business . now , from what i can tell , she 's done good by a handful of clients , but tessa gets most of her attention , and she 's content on letting a lot of things coast on cruise control . now , i can name a dozen ways i would have grown power in the same amount of time . and i do n't play favorites . devon : okay . well , i 'm gon na stop you right there , theo . i get that you 're hungry . but there is something that you need to know about me if we 're gon na work together . summer : hey . phyllis : hey . i did n't expect you back so soon . summer : yeah , i know . the meeting was cut short after it went off the rails . phyllis : oooh ! [ sighs ] trouble at jabot ? ohh . summer : mm . no , i would n't know , because i left before i could find out . but , actually , i do have a question for you . so , as soon as the meeting started , i got this text from theo , and i do n't know if he was really busy , or if this was just a not - so - subtle message . phyllis : why do you care ? you said you broke up with him yesterday . summer : well , yeah , i mean , i thought that things were over . we got into a fight over the girl that he brought to the reception . phyllis : oh , yeah . the one who could be your little sister ? summer : mm - hmm . phyllis : what 's up with her ? what are the details ? summer : uh , so , she used to party with kyle and theo back in new york , and theo decided to bring her to kyle 's reception to piss him off , which was a crappy move . but then i got to talking to her , and she 's actually kind of nice , so it changed my perspective on why they were even there , and ... i do n't know . i figured that i should at least give theo a chance to explain himself . phyllis : sounds like you 're just making up an excuse to see theo again . summer : mom , i 'm not d -- phyllis : i do n't care what you do . it 's your life . but if you want to see him again , you do it on your terms . you understand that ? sharon : what happened to make you come over here like this ? did chelsea turn you down again ? adam : you know that i tried to reclaim my family when i first came back here , but that is not happening . okay ? they 're gone . sharon : so you just ran over here and proposed to me ? adam : chasing chelsea was a mistake . she does n't see me the way you do . you know me in a way that no one else does . it is the same way that i know you , sharon . sharon : you do n't know me anymore . adam : [ scoffs ] that is not true . the way we connect , it is deep . and it 's undeniable . and no matter how many times you try to reassure rey , you could n't stay away . sharon : i hurt someone that i really , really loved because of you . adam : because you had some misguided idea that being with him was the right thing to do . it looked good to other people . but your heart and your mind , they were with me . why are you -- are you so afraid to admit that ? sharon : [ sighs ] maybe ... i 'm afraid of you . adam : no , you 're afraid of your feelings . but you do n't have to be anymore . you and rey , you 're finished . and i do n't want to waste time inching towards each other out of the fear of what other people might think . i do n't give a damn about that . okay ? i 'm here because we belong together . i need you . and you need me , too . the only difference is , i 'm not ashamed to admit it . sharon : you do n't know what it was like for me in the years that you were gone . my life fell apart . i - i made mistakes , i -- i drove people away . i - i had gotten to a low point that i did n't know if i was gon na come back from it or not . adam : i do n't judge you , sharon , for the things that you 've done . i actually understand you more because of them . sharon : [ sighs ] i tried to take the bad things that happened to me and turn them into something positive . and you know what ? that worked . it really did . it gave me new purpose . it made me a better mother , which is what 's most important to me . adam : yeah . as it should be . there 's nothing -- nothing on this earth that is more important than being a parent . sharon : i have tried my best to give faith a safe and stable environment . you know , that 's part of the reason why this breakup with rey is just killing me . you know , i asked him to move in too soon , and i just -- i hate that i did that to her . you know , i - i -- i may not be a mother that she can be proud of , but i 'm not going to be one that she 's ashamed of . adam : sharon , sometimes relationships do n't work out . nobody 's to blame . you 're being too hard on yourself . sharon : no , i 'm not . when you came back into town , i just started backsliding , making mistakes . i just -- i do n't want that to get any worse . that 's why i 'm drawing a line in the sane . i -- i ca n't just throw away everything that i 've worked so hard for the last few years on a -- on a whim . and i refuse to put my life back into chaos . adam : sharon , i admire the mother that you are to faith . and i 'm sure that you were a wonderful mother to christian , too . is that the time period that you were referring to , when you were told that he was your baby ? okay , i hate the idea that you felt like you had to make amends for something that was n't your fault . sharon : well , when i found out the baby was sage 's , i lied . adam : i would have done the same thing . okay ? i hate the idea that you had to go through that alone . i wish that i would have been here to comfort you and help you . that 's what i 'm trying to do . i want to move forward and start a new life . together . sharon : words . right ? they 're so easy to say . but the truth is just so much more complicated . adam : [ scoffs ] you and i are n't complicated , sharon . the other night , when we were together , that is as simple as it gets . sharon : the other night was a mistake . victoria : i 'm surprised that billy 's not with you . he said that he had a jabot meeting . jack : oh , he was there , all right . victoria : oh , no . what happened ? jack : he was on edge from the moment he got there . went into attack mode against ashley , and -- you know , it was mostly about his not sleeping . these nightmares he 's having about delia , and his obsession with adam . [ sighs ] victoria : he told you ? jack : yeah . and what did i do with it ? i mentioned it in front of ashley , and he felt totally betrayed . victoria : well , he has been trying to cover this whole thing up . jack : it 's obvious he 's struggling . victoria : that 's why we left kyle and lola 's wedding last night . the thought of never being able to walk delia down the aisle was really too much for him . jack : that makes sense . and , of course , i 'm telling him how great it is to see your child get married . victoria : no , jack . it 's not your fault . & it 's just one more thing in a long line of incidents . showing up at the chancellor house without knowing how he got there . finding words scribbled on the wall in delia 's handwriting . [ sighs ] look , i 'm glad he told you . and , honestly , it 's nice for me to have someone else to confide in . jack : billy said that you and sharon tried to talk him into seeing a therapist . victoria : yeah , we did . he went to one session . but he says he does n't see the point in going back . jack : well , if it 's not the right person , he can find the right person . victoria : i honestly do n't think that the therapist is the problem . i 'm worried . i 'm worried that billy does n't want to get better . jack : i 'm not sure i understand that . victoria : i just think that , on some subconscious level , billy wants to keep having these nightmares about delia because it makes him feel closer to her . phyllis : [ sighs ] well , you 're the last person i expected to get a text from . billy : i figured my day could n't get any worse , so why not ? phyllis : thank you . uh , summer told me there was some drama at the jabot meeting . she did n't give me specifics . billy : i do n't think jack should trust ashley , that 's all . phyllis : oh , you 're not gon na get an argument from me . i mean , ashley is as cutthroat as they come when it comes to business , even with her family . but you 're an even match for her , are n't you , billy ? you can be pretty ruthless when it comes to revenge . i know from personal experience . billy : you 're not gon na forgive me for what happened with summer . i understand that . the investment money i gave you notwithstanding . phyllis : no amount of money can ever buy that . so ... why did you want to see me ? what do you want ? devon : now , i know that running a business does require making some difficult decisions , and sometimes removing people when they do n't work out . and it 's true , i 've had some tough conversations with ana at one point . but i 've always treated her the way i would treat anybody else , and that 's with honesty and respect . so , if you 'd like to approach mariah about working under her , that 's cool . you can do that . but down - talking her to me is not the way you 're gon na get what you want . theo : look , i - i 'm sorry if that 's the way it came off . i - i meant no disrespect to you or her . devon : okay . well , i appreciate that . and i 'll leave it up to you two . theo : okay . uh ... thanks again for the job offer , and for giving me a chance to prove myself . devon : for sure . i am curious , though , man -- you got a lot of stuff going on with your agency and your freelance work , so why are you interested in power ? theo : because i can envision its true potential . i 'm seeing a place where i can integrate all the different entities i 'm involved with . expand power 's breadth and reach . i also have some personal reasons for staying in genoa city , so , if possible , i 'd like to make my base here . jack : billy , it 's me . uh , i was way out of line , bringing up our private conversation in front of ashley . give me a call , will you ? hello . celeste : hi . oh ! jack : i hope this will do . i asked for a table with a view . celeste : oh , this -- this will do . jack : the bride and groom get to have a honeymoon . seems to me the least the parents could do is have a little rest and relaxation . celeste : i am so glad you convinced me to come . if i had missed lola 's wedding , i would -- i would have regretted it every day of my life . jack : apparently your ex - husband felt the same way . celeste : oh , i 'm so , so sorry about that . i apologize . jack : no , no , no . there 's nothing to apologize for . at least he waited till after the ceremony to let lola know he was there . celeste : well , i think that he knew better than to spoil her day -- or , at least , her brothers , like , helped him see the light . jack : i imagine rey can be very convincing . celeste : yes , but unfortunately he was n't convincing enough to keep adrian from taking another run at me . jack : oh ? did he -- celeste : he asked me to take him back again . oh , yeah . he did . and , um ... i mean , i - i shut him down before he could get all the words out of his mouth . i -- i have to admit that seeing lola and kyle together has really helped me realize that i deserve a man who treats me as well as he treats her . jack : i agree . you do . celeste : i am so embarrassed that i was even tempted to let that man back into my life . jack : nothing to be embarrassed about . you two have a lot of history . he 's the father of your children . celeste : still . jack : i appreciate that you 're willing to give him a second chance ... to set things right . forgiveness is often the hardest choice . celeste : how did you get so wise ? jack : i 've taken a few trips around the sun . celeste : yeah . well , i think sometimes it 's easier to forgive a family member than it is to forgive a romantic partner . jack : let 's see ... kerry ... phyllis ... i think i 'll stop there . what do you say we agree to just agree ? celeste : [ chuckles ] sharon : i allowed myself to fall into old patterns with you because i do care about you . okay ? adam : wow . well , thank you for admitting it . sharon : you know , all this talk about moving forward , though -- you 're not ready to do that . you 're still fixated on the past . old slights and settling scores . adam : well , while you keep trying to deny our past . you are lumping me in with the rest of your exes because you refuse to acknowledge that our love was unique . it was powerful . sharon : it was really passionate . and deep . adam : so you have been thinking about our time together just as much as i have . sharon : [ sighs ] what we had was just too explosive to sustain . you know , maybe it just -- it flamed out 'cause it ran its course . adam : well , we can get it back . adam : sharon , i have lost so much . okay ? i 've lost years of my life , my children , every relationship that i have ever had . except for you . i keep coming back to you because you are the only one that i can see a different future with . and i think that if i got you back , i could ... [ sighs ] i could let everything else go . sharon : is this some kind of twisted ultimatum ? if i take you back , then you 'll stop hurting all the people that i love ? adam : no , that 's not what this is , sharon . sharon : you 're manipulating me to get the answer that you want . adam : you found me , sharon . yes , victor asked for your help because he knew that you had the best chance of getting through to me , and you agreed because you knew he was right . and you wanted to feel this again , what is happening right here in front of you . all you have to do is let yourself have it . let 's see , aleve is proven better on pain `` the young and the restless `` will continue . at havertys , we know a mattress is more jack : yeah , i got pulled back into a relationship with phyllis more than once . celeste : what finally ended it for good ? jack : she slept with my brother . celeste : oh ! tsss ... that 'll do it . [ sucks teeth ] i have a little familiarity with that situation . i 'm just hoping that someday arturo and rey will be able to get past it . jack : oh , with them they will . because they 're brothers . celeste : it 's so hard to know [ chuckles ] you know , whether to give your family space and when to smother them . and i let -- i -- i think i learned my lesson . so i 'm gon na leave and go back to miami as soon as lola and kyle -- jack : oh , no , no . celeste : yeah . ... come back from their honeymoon . jack : i hate to think you 're leaving town so soon . celeste : it 's not gon na be easy to leave lola and rey . it 's just that hovering also does n't work for our family , so ... and arturo and mia , they 're gon na have a baby soon , and they 'll -- they 'll definitely need my help . theo : uh , hey , there . should n't you be working ? mariah : should n't you ? theo : oh , i 'm always working . mariah : same . theo : listen , i , uh , heard that power is losing the real world renegades to another firm . i wish i would have known . they 're friends . i could have helped you keep them as clients . mariah : we decided that it would n't be a good fit . but if you have any other clients that you 'd like to send my way , i 'd be happy to look at them . theo : i might . you know , i - i really admire what you 're doing over there . mariah : except for the one client that i lost . theo : oh , that 's no biggie . you 're doing great things . and i was thinking , i would love to work more closely together . mariah : really . theo : i was just talking to devon about it . mariah : are n't you an eager little helper . sharon : i do n't know what to say . adam : whatever 's in your heart . forget about all the rules that you have imposed on yourself , and what other people are going to say . sharon : you are the man who loved me and protected me during one of the worst times of my life -- the darkest . but you 're also the man who lied to me and cause me a lot of pain . and why would i throw myself back into that ? adam : [ sighs ] look , i 'm not going to pretend that i am someone i 'm not . i am the same guy , with the same flaws . but that is what has always worked between us , sharon . that we accept each other and we -- we love each other and we fight for each other with the same intensity . sharon : okay . do n't pretend that some of the terrible things that you 've done and continue to do are just a personality quirk that i 'm supposed to put up with . adam : okay , look , i 'm not -- i 'm not trying to pressure you into anything . okay ? i 'm just asking you to think about what i said . be honest with yourself . and you 'll have your answer . billy : i want to know what 's going on with adam . phyllis : w - well , my first answer is , `` i do n't know . `` my second is , `` why would i tell you ? `` billy : because he royally screwed you over on that hotel deal . publicly humiliated you . you do n't work for him anymore . and an enemy of your enemy is a friend . phyllis : uh , well , we had a misunderstanding , adam and i . uh ... a falling out . it 's business . i have my big - girl pants on . billy : yeah , but he 's dangerous , phyllis . on a much larger scale than some business deal , okay ? he destroys everybody that he comes in contact with . and when you join forces with that , you become complicit . phyllis : so many people in this town have done so many horrible things . so why is it that adam and i are the only ones who get labeled and judged ? billy : all right . okay . so you 're just gon na sit here and defend adam ? phyllis : no , i 'm not defending him . i 'm not defending him . it 's just a double standard . i mean , kyle screws my daughter over , yet he sashays through his wedding . and -- and nick impersonates j.t . for months to terrorize victor , which i do n't have a huge problem with , and it 's `` no harm , no foul `` for him . and then chelsea comes into town , and everybody forgets that she defrauded fenmore 's and she put sharon in the hospital . her husband dies , and nick drops everything . makes sure that she 's staying right with him , even though she dumped him and left town . i mean , there are skid marks on the road from her leaving . billy : chelsea 's not gon na be at nick 's for much longer , considering the fortune that calvin left her . phyllis : what ? wait a second . her husband suspiciously dies and leaves her everything ? wow ! this is rich . this is just like chelsea . and , of course , there 's no investigation . billy : why would there be one ? he died of natural causes . but congratulations on your ability to hold a grudge . phyllis : a grudge ? am i holding a grudge ? you called me here because of adam , right ? billy : do n't ever compare those two . adam killed my daughter . he stole her life from her . and he continues to wreak havoc on every single person that he comes in contact with . and he has never , ever been held accountable for his actions . and it 's long overdue . phyllis : i feel like this conversation took a turn . that was n't a threat , was it ? billy : consider it a warning , phyllis . get on the right side of this . or you may end up collateral damage . sharon : i do n't want anything to do with you . i thought that i was really clear . adam : but you do n't have to hide who you really are . sharon : and i refuse to put my life back into chaos . adam : all you have to do is let yourself have it . mariah : how exactly do you think we should work together ? theo : open a line of communication , see what happens . let me help you in ways that make sense . like , you know , a call to my friends , that would have taken two seconds . mariah : okay . i mean , this is a big company , and i could use some backup every now and then . theo : well , i am here and at your service . mariah : thank you . running this company is a lot . and , to be fair , the only experience i have before this is hosting a tv show . theo : well , you are great at certain things . and my expertise can help fill in the gaps . mariah : yeah , i could see that . theo : i can fortify us in areas where you 're weak . i can step in when you 're not quite up to the task . you know , i feel i can take this company to new heights . mariah : so that 's what you said to devon . theo : uh ... uh , maybe something like that . mariah : you know , i 'm wondering how you have the time . running around trying to steal other people 's jobs , ruin their marriages . it seems like you should be focusing a little bit on your own business . theo : my business . mariah : yeah . your -- your little agency . theo : sure . mariah : it would be a shame if power came in and decided to get into the agency business , as well , stealing all your clients so we could service all of their needs under one roof , making you obsolete . thanks for the idea . you were a big help . theo : yeah , i did not see that coming . this could be fun . mariah : he 's all yours . summer : wow . looks like you 're losing your touch . phyllis : hey , adam . hey ! it looks like i may get the money to buy my 20 % stake in the grand phoenix . adam : really ? phyllis : mm - hmm . adam : it has only been a few hours . phyllis : i 'm resourceful . you know that . adam : you are going through a lot of trouble to get a minority stake in abby 's hotel . you realize you 're not gon na have any real power , right ? phyllis : this is just the beginning . you see , abby is naive and inexperienced . it 's not gon na be long until i take over and squeeze her out . phyllis : hey , chelsea . it 's phyllis . i 'd like to talk to you about something that might be mutually beneficial . call me back . summer : all right . so , are people starting to see through that signature charm of yours after the stunt that you pulled at the wedding ? theo : okay , it was n't a stunt . it was a gift to kyle . summer : okay , well , i do n't think that he really appreciated having you bring some blonde that you guys used to party with to his reception . theo : then he missed the point . zoe was there to let him know she was doing well , and that she does n't hold any grudges . summer : hmm . theo : i did it so that kyle could stop beating himself up over it . and stop beating me up , too . literally and figuratively . summer : you know , i warned him that you might pull something . theo : heh ... of course you did . and i knew you 'd tell him that 's why we make such a good team . summer : okay , no . no . we are not on a team anymore . we are on opposite sides now . theo : are we ? summer : mm - hmm . theo : you took me to that bachelorette party for a reason . because you get bored as easily as i do . and because , secretly , deep down in the recesses of your mind , you wanted some kind of revenge against kyle and lola . summer : no , i told you that you had to behave . theo : i did exactly what you wanted me to . summer : no . theo : maybe you ca n't admit it to yourself , but i knew what you needed , and i got it for you . and it was very satisfying . summer : okay , well , now you 're sounding crazy . theo : it feels good to blow things up . does n't it ? victor : i just overheard phyllis tell adam that once she has a stake in the grand phoenix , she will boot you out and take over herself . abby : well , that 's -- that 's not unexpected . but i would like to see her try . victor : do n't take her lightly . abby : dad , i 'm not . but she is underestimating me . look , i have structured the hotel deal very carefully . it will be impossible for her to get a majority stake . victor : mm - hmm . if you say so . but let me ask you something -- why would you want to work with someone you know is trying to undermine you ? abby : because she 'll be good at the job . and i will enjoy the hell out of being her boss , watching her try to out - maneuver me , and squashing her every attempt . dad [ laughs ] this is right out of your playbook . i 'm surprised you 're not on board . victor : let me tell you something , sweetheart . if you are bringing her in to prove a point to me , do n't do that . she 's a dangerous lady . she 's toxic . she almost managed to send nikki and victoria to prison for years to come to save her own skin . abby : i understand . thank you for telling me what she 's planning . victor : [ sighs ] now , why do i feel i 'm not getting through to you ? abby : you have . you have given me a lot to think about . | devon offers theo a job running lp but he turns it down because he wants to run powers communications but devon does n't like that he is talking badly about mariah saying that she is too green and he could do the job much better . devon tells theo that he can offer to help mariah and be her second in command but only if she offers him the job . theo offers his help to mariah but she figures out he is after her job and tell him that she has decided to take his company from him since he does n't seem to want it anymore . billy gets in an argument with ashley and jack because he thinks ashley will stab jabot and the family in the back the first time she does n't get her way . phyllis tells summer if she wants theo back she should make sure it on her terms and tells her to be smart and not let him manipulate her . jack and victoria are worried about billy and victoria tells jack that she thinks billy does n't want to get rid of his nightmares because it makes him feel closer to delia . jack and celeste have lunch and talk about their family and their failed romantic relationships . victor overhears phyllis telling adam that she plans to squeeze abby out of the hotel and become the sole owner . victor advises abby to find another partner in the hotel because phyllis is toxic . abby thanks victor for telling her what phyllis is planning and insists that she can handle it . abby tells victor that he has given her a lot to think about and she will consider getting another partner . adam and sharon have a very long talk in the park where he tries to persuade her to get married and after being left alone to think sharon goes to adam 's place to give him an answer to his proposal . theo tells summer he is getting revenge on kyle for her because he only married her to save lola . theo also tells summer that is the reason that he brought zoe to the wedding he thinks summer likes having him on her side after hearing all of this summer gives theo a kiss . | <s>[INST] [ previously_on ] adam : marry me . sharon : what ? devon : how would you like to run power communications ? mariah : you 're actually serious ? devon : i first heard about this guy when he was in music back in new york . i made it my job to keep tabs on talented people . abby : if you have some sort of ownership stake in the enterprise -- let 's say 20 % -- i 'll know our interests are aligned . billy : why did you drop nick 's custody case and file a petition for adam ? michael : stay out of this . billy : i smell a rat , michael . michael : watch it . you may find yourself the cheese . [ billy sighs ] victoria : hey . are you on your way to pick up johnny from day camp ? because they called and said that no one had come to get him . billy : i 'm prepping for this stupid jabot merger meeting , and i totally got distracted . can you just call them and tell them that i 'm on the way ? victoria : well , it 's really unlike you to forget . are you -- are you still thinking about delia ? billy : no . i lost -- i lost track of time . victoria : like you did last night after kyle and lola 's wedding ? billy : i told you why i had feelings about that , okay ? i 'm -- i 'm fine . victoria : billy , i can see that you 're not . i mean , are you still having the nightmares ? billy : all right ... victoria : any incidents like what happened at the chancellor house ? billy : no , victoria . victoria : i just want to help you . i want to be able to give you some relief . maybe you need to go back to the therapist . billy : that is not gon na help , so just please stop , all right ? look , you 're right -- i am having trouble sleeping . and it 's putting me on edge . and i 've got to get to this meeting , and i 've got to go pick up johnny , so -- victoria : i 'll -- i 'll go pick up johnny . billy : okay . thank you . sharon : marry you ? on what planet -- [ sighs ] why -- why are you doing this ? adam : you know why . sharon : no , i really don't . i - i -- i do n't want anything to do with you . i thought that i was really , really clear . adam : okay , i heard what you said . but those are just words . sharon : then you 're not listening to the words . adam : sharon , i 'm hearing what 's in your heart . everything else is just noise . the things that you said after rey found us together , they were a defense mechanism . because you want to see yourself as the good girl that dates the cop . but you do n't have to hide who you really are and what you want . sharon : i know who i am . what makes you so sure that i want you ? [ cellphone chimes ] [ doorbell rings ] abby : oh , do you have something better to you ? summer : do you ? i mean , 'cause , my iced tea could use a little more ice . thank you . abby : oh . jack : okay , uh ... we are here to discuss the abbott exchange / jabot merger and the introduction of the new company . abby , i 'm glad you 're here , as a board member and a loyal daughter . abby : well , i think this is a fantastic idea , and i would love to offer any insight or support that i can . jack : summer is here as part of the marketing and influencer team . we are counting on them big time when it comes to our social - media rollout . ashley : yeah , jack told me all about your growing online presence . i ca n't wait to hear your ideas . theo : i have to say , i was intrigued by your call . devon : well , uh , aside from what happened at kyle and lola 's party , i , uh -- i got to say that i 've been impressed with your instincts and your knowledge of the music industry . so , with ana gone , i 'd like to offer you a full - time role at lp . theo : wow . um ... i 'm flattered . you know i love the music industry . devon : but ? theo : but [ sighs ] i see myself as more of an image builder . for musical artists , but also for other creatives -- influencers , business moguls . anyone who needs to be shaped or reinvented for public consumption . devon : okay . so you turning me down ? theo : no , i -- i was gon na suggest i might be a better fit at power communications . devon : at power communications ? in what capacity ? theo : i know you recently put mariah in charge , however ... devon : however what ? you can say what 's on your mind . summer : so , i was thinking that we could send our top influences to the brick- and - mortar stores to , you know , interact with customers and then demonstrate our new product lines , and maybe even live - stream it . jack : i like it . i like it . it 's great . abby : and during each live stream , we can tease the announcement of the new company . ashley : that 's fantastic . that 's how you attract more followers and create anticipation . nice -- billy : sorry i 'm late . jack : we , uh , waited as long as we could , and then we had to get started . ashley : is everything okay ? billy : yeah . it 's fine . i 'm just not sure what the point of this meeting is . i think it 's a little too early to be discussing social - media strategy . the merger has n't even gone through yet . ashley : but it is going to go through . billy : which is why we need to pump the brakes and rethink this . ashley : okay , i do n't understand why you 're still doubting something that is going to be demonstratively good for jabot . billy : actually , ashley , i 'm not doubting that it makes business sense . i 'm doubting you . summer : um , why do n't i just meet you back at the office ? abby : i need to check on some things in the kitchen , so , um ... summer : okay . abby : yeah . ashley : so it does n't matter to you that this is what our father would want ? billy : oh , really ? with the dad card already ? look , our dad cared about our family , but he was a shrewd businessman , and he would n't tolerate somebody that betrayed him . unlike jack , i 'm finding it difficult to ignore that . jack : no one 's ignoring anything . a lot has happened since -- billy : jack , she tried to burn our company to the ground and take us with it . ashley : you 're taking this too personally . billy : 'cause it 's only a matter of time before you turn your back on us and stab us again . you expect us to believe that you come into town and you 're a different person ? i do n't buy it . people do n't change , ashley . jack : okay . what 's really going on here ? additional sponsorship billy : i do n't trust her , jack . and you should n't , either . ashley : billy , everything that happened back then at jabot , it was a very complex situation . you know that . billy : so you 're gon na make excuses for yourself now , ashley ? is that what you 're doing ? ashley : no , i 'm not . i did some things that i regret . i 'm trying to make it right . billy : well , some things ca n't be fixed . ashley : you know , i am not the only one sitting at this table that made mistakes , am i ? as i recall , billy , you decided to shred the patent documents . billy : you 're so typical . you just turn it back around on me . ashley : that 's not what i 'm doing . jack : let 's all take a deep breath -- billy : do not patronize me , jack ! jack : no one 's patronizing you . i am suggesting that perhaps there is more here than meets the eye . could your reaction have something to do with what we discussed the other day ? billy : i told you that in confidence . i 'll just add you to the list of people that i ca n't trust . ashley : what is going on with him ? is he gambling again ? jack : no . [ sighs ] i -- look , i need to respect his wishes and not discuss it any more . ashley : okay . whatever it is , though , you 've got to fix it , because this merger could be so beneficial not just to the company , but to our family . billy has the power to put the whole thing in jeopardy . jack : okay . i will talk to billy . theo : i like mariah . she 's smart and enthusiastic . but she 's still green . kind of like ana . devon : you saying that i made a mistake by hiring her ? theo : no . well , i mean , maybe for that particular job . look , this is n't personal . but the fact is , mariah was talk - show host before you put her in that position , and she 's still learning the pr business . now , from what i can tell , she 's done good by a handful of clients , but tessa gets most of her attention , and she 's content on letting a lot of things coast on cruise control . now , i can name a dozen ways i would have grown power in the same amount of time . and i do n't play favorites . devon : okay . well , i 'm gon na stop you right there , theo . i get that you 're hungry . but there is something that you need to know about me if we 're gon na work together . summer : hey . phyllis : hey . i did n't expect you back so soon . summer : yeah , i know . the meeting was cut short after it went off the rails . phyllis : oooh ! [ sighs ] trouble at jabot ? ohh . summer : mm . no , i would n't know , because i left before i could find out . but , actually , i do have a question for you . so , as soon as the meeting started , i got this text from theo , and i do n't know if he was really busy , or if this was just a not - so - subtle message . phyllis : why do you care ? you said you broke up with him yesterday . summer : well , yeah , i mean , i thought that things were over . we got into a fight over the girl that he brought to the reception . phyllis : oh , yeah . the one who could be your little sister ? summer : mm - hmm . phyllis : what 's up with her ? what are the details ? summer : uh , so , she used to party with kyle and theo back in new york , and theo decided to bring her to kyle 's reception to piss him off , which was a crappy move . but then i got to talking to her , and she 's actually kind of nice , so it changed my perspective on why they were even there , and ... i do n't know . i figured that i should at least give theo a chance to explain himself . phyllis : sounds like you 're just making up an excuse to see theo again . summer : mom , i 'm not d -- phyllis : i do n't care what you do . it 's your life . but if you want to see him again , you do it on your terms . you understand that ? sharon : what happened to make you come over here like this ? did chelsea turn you down again ? adam : you know that i tried to reclaim my family when i first came back here , but that is not happening . okay ? they 're gone . sharon : so you just ran over here and proposed to me ? adam : chasing chelsea was a mistake . she does n't see me the way you do . you know me in a way that no one else does . it is the same way that i know you , sharon . sharon : you do n't know me anymore . adam : [ scoffs ] that is not true . the way we connect , it is deep . and it 's undeniable . and no matter how many times you try to reassure rey , you could n't stay away . sharon : i hurt someone that i really , really loved because of you . adam : because you had some misguided idea that being with him was the right thing to do . it looked good to other people . but your heart and your mind , they were with me . why are you -- are you so afraid to admit that ? sharon : [ sighs ] maybe ... i 'm afraid of you . adam : no , you 're afraid of your feelings . but you do n't have to be anymore . you and rey , you 're finished . and i do n't want to waste time inching towards each other out of the fear of what other people might think . i do n't give a damn about that . okay ? i 'm here because we belong together . i need you . and you need me , too . the only difference is , i 'm not ashamed to admit it . sharon : you do n't know what it was like for me in the years that you were gone . my life fell apart . i - i made mistakes , i -- i drove people away . i - i had gotten to a low point that i did n't know if i was gon na come back from it or not . adam : i do n't judge you , sharon , for the things that you 've done . i actually understand you more because of them . sharon : [ sighs ] i tried to take the bad things that happened to me and turn them into something positive . and you know what ? that worked . it really did . it gave me new purpose . it made me a better mother , which is what 's most important to me . adam : yeah . as it should be . there 's nothing -- nothing on this earth that is more important than being a parent . sharon : i have tried my best to give faith a safe and stable environment . you know , that 's part of the reason why this breakup with rey is just killing me . you know , i asked him to move in too soon , and i just -- i hate that i did that to her . you know , i - i -- i may not be a mother that she can be proud of , but i 'm not going to be one that she 's ashamed of . adam : sharon , sometimes relationships do n't work out . nobody 's to blame . you 're being too hard on yourself . sharon : no , i 'm not . when you came back into town , i just started backsliding , making mistakes . i just -- i do n't want that to get any worse . that 's why i 'm drawing a line in the sane . i -- i ca n't just throw away everything that i 've worked so hard for the last few years on a -- on a whim . and i refuse to put my life back into chaos . adam : sharon , i admire the mother that you are to faith . and i 'm sure that you were a wonderful mother to christian , too . is that the time period that you were referring to , when you were told that he was your baby ? okay , i hate the idea that you felt like you had to make amends for something that was n't your fault . sharon : well , when i found out the baby was sage 's , i lied . adam : i would have done the same thing . okay ? i hate the idea that you had to go through that alone . i wish that i would have been here to comfort you and help you . that 's what i 'm trying to do . i want to move forward and start a new life . together . sharon : words . right ? they 're so easy to say . but the truth is just so much more complicated . adam : [ scoffs ] you and i are n't complicated , sharon . the other night , when we were together , that is as simple as it gets . sharon : the other night was a mistake . victoria : i 'm surprised that billy 's not with you . he said that he had a jabot meeting . jack : oh , he was there , all right . victoria : oh , no . what happened ? jack : he was on edge from the moment he got there . went into attack mode against ashley , and -- you know , it was mostly about his not sleeping . these nightmares he 's having about delia , and his obsession with adam . [ sighs ] victoria : he told you ? jack : yeah . and what did i do with it ? i mentioned it in front of ashley , and he felt totally betrayed . victoria : well , he has been trying to cover this whole thing up . jack : it 's obvious he 's struggling . victoria : that 's why we left kyle and lola 's wedding last night . the thought of never being able to walk delia down the aisle was really too much for him . jack : that makes sense . and , of course , i 'm telling him how great it is to see your child get married . victoria : no , jack . it 's not your fault . & it 's just one more thing in a long line of incidents . showing up at the chancellor house without knowing how he got there . finding words scribbled on the wall in delia 's handwriting . [ sighs ] look , i 'm glad he told you . and , honestly , it 's nice for me to have someone else to confide in . jack : billy said that you and sharon tried to talk him into seeing a therapist . victoria : yeah , we did . he went to one session . but he says he does n't see the point in going back . jack : well , if it 's not the right person , he can find the right person . victoria : i honestly do n't think that the therapist is the problem . i 'm worried . i 'm worried that billy does n't want to get better . jack : i 'm not sure i understand that . victoria : i just think that , on some subconscious level , billy wants to keep having these nightmares about delia because it makes him feel closer to her . phyllis : [ sighs ] well , you 're the last person i expected to get a text from . billy : i figured my day could n't get any worse , so why not ? phyllis : thank you . uh , summer told me there was some drama at the jabot meeting . she did n't give me specifics . billy : i do n't think jack should trust ashley , that 's all . phyllis : oh , you 're not gon na get an argument from me . i mean , ashley is as cutthroat as they come when it comes to business , even with her family . but you 're an even match for her , are n't you , billy ? you can be pretty ruthless when it comes to revenge . i know from personal experience . billy : you 're not gon na forgive me for what happened with summer . i understand that . the investment money i gave you notwithstanding . phyllis : no amount of money can ever buy that . so ... why did you want to see me ? what do you want ? devon : now , i know that running a business does require making some difficult decisions , and sometimes removing people when they do n't work out . and it 's true , i 've had some tough conversations with ana at one point . but i 've always treated her the way i would treat anybody else , and that 's with honesty and respect . so , if you 'd like to approach mariah about working under her , that 's cool . you can do that . but down - talking her to me is not the way you 're gon na get what you want . theo : look , i - i 'm sorry if that 's the way it came off . i - i meant no disrespect to you or her . devon : okay . well , i appreciate that . and i 'll leave it up to you two . theo : okay . uh ... thanks again for the job offer , and for giving me a chance to prove myself . devon : for sure . i am curious , though , man -- you got a lot of stuff going on with your agency and your freelance work , so why are you interested in power ? theo : because i can envision its true potential . i 'm seeing a place where i can integrate all the different entities i 'm involved with . expand power 's breadth and reach . i also have some personal reasons for staying in genoa city , so , if possible , i 'd like to make my base here . jack : billy , it 's me . uh , i was way out of line , bringing up our private conversation in front of ashley . give me a call , will you ? hello . celeste : hi . oh ! jack : i hope this will do . i asked for a table with a view . celeste : oh , this -- this will do . jack : the bride and groom get to have a honeymoon . seems to me the least the parents could do is have a little rest and relaxation . celeste : i am so glad you convinced me to come . if i had missed lola 's wedding , i would -- i would have regretted it every day of my life . jack : apparently your ex - husband felt the same way . celeste : oh , i 'm so , so sorry about that . i apologize . jack : no , no , no . there 's nothing to apologize for . at least he waited till after the ceremony to let lola know he was there . celeste : well , i think that he knew better than to spoil her day -- or , at least , her brothers , like , helped him see the light . jack : i imagine rey can be very convincing . celeste : yes , but unfortunately he was n't convincing enough to keep adrian from taking another run at me . jack : oh ? did he -- celeste : he asked me to take him back again . oh , yeah . he did . and , um ... i mean , i - i shut him down before he could get all the words out of his mouth . i -- i have to admit that seeing lola and kyle together has really helped me realize that i deserve a man who treats me as well as he treats her . jack : i agree . you do . celeste : i am so embarrassed that i was even tempted to let that man back into my life . jack : nothing to be embarrassed about . you two have a lot of history . he 's the father of your children . celeste : still . jack : i appreciate that you 're willing to give him a second chance ... to set things right . forgiveness is often the hardest choice . celeste : how did you get so wise ? jack : i 've taken a few trips around the sun . celeste : yeah . well , i think sometimes it 's easier to forgive a family member than it is to forgive a romantic partner . jack : let 's see ... kerry ... phyllis ... i think i 'll stop there . what do you say we agree to just agree ? celeste : [ chuckles ] sharon : i allowed myself to fall into old patterns with you because i do care about you . okay ? adam : wow . well , thank you for admitting it . sharon : you know , all this talk about moving forward , though -- you 're not ready to do that . you 're still fixated on the past . old slights and settling scores . adam : well , while you keep trying to deny our past . you are lumping me in with the rest of your exes because you refuse to acknowledge that our love was unique . it was powerful . sharon : it was really passionate . and deep . adam : so you have been thinking about our time together just as much as i have . sharon : [ sighs ] what we had was just too explosive to sustain . you know , maybe it just -- it flamed out 'cause it ran its course . adam : well , we can get it back . adam : sharon , i have lost so much . okay ? i 've lost years of my life , my children , every relationship that i have ever had . except for you . i keep coming back to you because you are the only one that i can see a different future with . and i think that if i got you back , i could ... [ sighs ] i could let everything else go . sharon : is this some kind of twisted ultimatum ? if i take you back , then you 'll stop hurting all the people that i love ? adam : no , that 's not what this is , sharon . sharon : you 're manipulating me to get the answer that you want . adam : you found me , sharon . yes , victor asked for your help because he knew that you had the best chance of getting through to me , and you agreed because you knew he was right . and you wanted to feel this again , what is happening right here in front of you . all you have to do is let yourself have it . let 's see , aleve is proven better on pain `` the young and the restless `` will continue . at havertys , we know a mattress is more jack : yeah , i got pulled back into a relationship with phyllis more than once . celeste : what finally ended it for good ? jack : she slept with my brother . celeste : oh ! tsss ... that 'll do it . [ sucks teeth ] i have a little familiarity with that situation . i 'm just hoping that someday arturo and rey will be able to get past it . jack : oh , with them they will . because they 're brothers . celeste : it 's so hard to know [ chuckles ] you know , whether to give your family space and when to smother them . and i let -- i -- i think i learned my lesson . so i 'm gon na leave and go back to miami as soon as lola and kyle -- jack : oh , no , no . celeste : yeah . ... come back from their honeymoon . jack : i hate to think you 're leaving town so soon . celeste : it 's not gon na be easy to leave lola and rey . it 's just that hovering also does n't work for our family , so ... and arturo and mia , they 're gon na have a baby soon , and they 'll -- they 'll definitely need my help . theo : uh , hey , there . should n't you be working ? mariah : should n't you ? theo : oh , i 'm always working . mariah : same . theo : listen , i , uh , heard that power is losing the real world renegades to another firm . i wish i would have known . they 're friends . i could have helped you keep them as clients . mariah : we decided that it would n't be a good fit . but if you have any other clients that you 'd like to send my way , i 'd be happy to look at them . theo : i might . you know , i - i really admire what you 're doing over there . mariah : except for the one client that i lost . theo : oh , that 's no biggie . you 're doing great things . and i was thinking , i would love to work more closely together . mariah : really . theo : i was just talking to devon about it . mariah : are n't you an eager little helper . sharon : i do n't know what to say . adam : whatever 's in your heart . forget about all the rules that you have imposed on yourself , and what other people are going to say . sharon : you are the man who loved me and protected me during one of the worst times of my life -- the darkest . but you 're also the man who lied to me and cause me a lot of pain . and why would i throw myself back into that ? adam : [ sighs ] look , i 'm not going to pretend that i am someone i 'm not . i am the same guy , with the same flaws . but that is what has always worked between us , sharon . that we accept each other and we -- we love each other and we fight for each other with the same intensity . sharon : okay . do n't pretend that some of the terrible things that you 've done and continue to do are just a personality quirk that i 'm supposed to put up with . adam : okay , look , i 'm not -- i 'm not trying to pressure you into anything . okay ? i 'm just asking you to think about what i said . be honest with yourself . and you 'll have your answer . billy : i want to know what 's going on with adam . phyllis : w - well , my first answer is , `` i do n't know . `` my second is , `` why would i tell you ? `` billy : because he royally screwed you over on that hotel deal . publicly humiliated you . you do n't work for him anymore . and an enemy of your enemy is a friend . phyllis : uh , well , we had a misunderstanding , adam and i . uh ... a falling out . it 's business . i have my big - girl pants on . billy : yeah , but he 's dangerous , phyllis . on a much larger scale than some business deal , okay ? he destroys everybody that he comes in contact with . and when you join forces with that , you become complicit . phyllis : so many people in this town have done so many horrible things . so why is it that adam and i are the only ones who get labeled and judged ? billy : all right . okay . so you 're just gon na sit here and defend adam ? phyllis : no , i 'm not defending him . i 'm not defending him . it 's just a double standard . i mean , kyle screws my daughter over , yet he sashays through his wedding . and -- and nick impersonates j.t . for months to terrorize victor , which i do n't have a huge problem with , and it 's `` no harm , no foul `` for him . and then chelsea comes into town , and everybody forgets that she defrauded fenmore 's and she put sharon in the hospital . her husband dies , and nick drops everything . makes sure that she 's staying right with him , even though she dumped him and left town . i mean , there are skid marks on the road from her leaving . billy : chelsea 's not gon na be at nick 's for much longer , considering the fortune that calvin left her . phyllis : what ? wait a second . her husband suspiciously dies and leaves her everything ? wow ! this is rich . this is just like chelsea . and , of course , there 's no investigation . billy : why would there be one ? he died of natural causes . but congratulations on your ability to hold a grudge . phyllis : a grudge ? am i holding a grudge ? you called me here because of adam , right ? billy : do n't ever compare those two . adam killed my daughter . he stole her life from her . and he continues to wreak havoc on every single person that he comes in contact with . and he has never , ever been held accountable for his actions . and it 's long overdue . phyllis : i feel like this conversation took a turn . that was n't a threat , was it ? billy : consider it a warning , phyllis . get on the right side of this . or you may end up collateral damage . sharon : i do n't want anything to do with you . i thought that i was really clear . adam : but you do n't have to hide who you really are . sharon : and i refuse to put my life back into chaos . adam : all you have to do is let yourself have it . mariah : how exactly do you think we should work together ? theo : open a line of communication , see what happens . let me help you in ways that make sense . like , you know , a call to my friends , that would have taken two seconds . mariah : okay . i mean , this is a big company , and i could use some backup every now and then . theo : well , i am here and at your service . mariah : thank you . running this company is a lot . and , to be fair , the only experience i have before this is hosting a tv show . theo : well , you are great at certain things . and my expertise can help fill in the gaps . mariah : yeah , i could see that . theo : i can fortify us in areas where you 're weak . i can step in when you 're not quite up to the task . you know , i feel i can take this company to new heights . mariah : so that 's what you said to devon . theo : uh ... uh , maybe something like that . mariah : you know , i 'm wondering how you have the time . running around trying to steal other people 's jobs , ruin their marriages . it seems like you should be focusing a little bit on your own business . theo : my business . mariah : yeah . your -- your little agency . theo : sure . mariah : it would be a shame if power came in and decided to get into the agency business , as well , stealing all your clients so we could service all of their needs under one roof , making you obsolete . thanks for the idea . you were a big help . theo : yeah , i did not see that coming . this could be fun . mariah : he 's all yours . summer : wow . looks like you 're losing your touch . phyllis : hey , adam . hey ! it looks like i may get the money to buy my 20 % stake in the grand phoenix . adam : really ? phyllis : mm - hmm . adam : it has only been a few hours . phyllis : i 'm resourceful . you know that . adam : you are going through a lot of trouble to get a minority stake in abby 's hotel . you realize you 're not gon na have any real power , right ? phyllis : this is just the beginning . you see , abby is naive and inexperienced . it 's not gon na be long until i take over and squeeze her out . phyllis : hey , chelsea . it 's phyllis . i 'd like to talk to you about something that might be mutually beneficial . call me back . summer : all right . so , are people starting to see through that signature charm of yours after the stunt that you pulled at the wedding ? theo : okay , it was n't a stunt . it was a gift to kyle . summer : okay , well , i do n't think that he really appreciated having you bring some blonde that you guys used to party with to his reception . theo : then he missed the point . zoe was there to let him know she was doing well , and that she does n't hold any grudges . summer : hmm . theo : i did it so that kyle could stop beating himself up over it . and stop beating me up , too . literally and figuratively . summer : you know , i warned him that you might pull something . theo : heh ... of course you did . and i knew you 'd tell him that 's why we make such a good team . summer : okay , no . no . we are not on a team anymore . we are on opposite sides now . theo : are we ? summer : mm - hmm . theo : you took me to that bachelorette party for a reason . because you get bored as easily as i do . and because , secretly , deep down in the recesses of your mind , you wanted some kind of revenge against kyle and lola . summer : no , i told you that you had to behave . theo : i did exactly what you wanted me to . summer : no . theo : maybe you ca n't admit it to yourself , but i knew what you needed , and i got it for you . and it was very satisfying . summer : okay , well , now you 're sounding crazy . theo : it feels good to blow things up . does n't it ? victor : i just overheard phyllis tell adam that once she has a stake in the grand phoenix , she will boot you out and take over herself . abby : well , that 's -- that 's not unexpected . but i would like to see her try . victor : do n't take her lightly . abby : dad , i 'm not . but she is underestimating me . look , i have structured the hotel deal very carefully . it will be impossible for her to get a majority stake . victor : mm - hmm . if you say so . but let me ask you something -- why would you want to work with someone you know is trying to undermine you ? abby : because she 'll be good at the job . and i will enjoy the hell out of being her boss , watching her try to out - maneuver me , and squashing her every attempt . dad [ laughs ] this is right out of your playbook . i 'm surprised you 're not on board . victor : let me tell you something , sweetheart . if you are bringing her in to prove a point to me , do n't do that . she 's a dangerous lady . she 's toxic . she almost managed to send nikki and victoria to prison for years to come to save her own skin . abby : i understand . thank you for telling me what she 's planning . victor : [ sighs ] now , why do i feel i 'm not getting through to you ? abby : you have . you have given me a lot to think about .Summarize.[/INST]devon offers theo a job running lp but he turns it down because he wants to run powers communications but devon does n't like that he is talking badly about mariah saying that she is too green and he could do the job much better . devon tells theo that he can offer to help mariah and be her second in command but only if she offers him the job . theo offers his help to mariah but she figures out he is after her job and tell him that she has decided to take his company from him since he does n't seem to want it anymore . billy gets in an argument with ashley and jack because he thinks ashley will stab jabot and the family in the back the first time she does n't get her way . phyllis tells summer if she wants theo back she should make sure it on her terms and tells her to be smart and not let him manipulate her . jack and victoria are worried about billy and victoria tells jack that she thinks billy does n't want to get rid of his nightmares because it makes him feel closer to delia . jack and celeste have lunch and talk about their family and their failed romantic relationships . victor overhears phyllis telling adam that she plans to squeeze abby out of the hotel and become the sole owner . victor advises abby to find another partner in the hotel because phyllis is toxic . abby thanks victor for telling her what phyllis is planning and insists that she can handle it . abby tells victor that he has given her a lot to think about and she will consider getting another partner . adam and sharon have a very long talk in the park where he tries to persuade her to get married and after being left alone to think sharon goes to adam 's place to give him an answer to his proposal . theo tells summer he is getting revenge on kyle for her because he only married her to save lola . theo also tells summer that is the reason that he brought zoe to the wedding he thinks summer likes having him on her side after hearing all of this summer gives theo a kiss .</s> | 17,872 |

chelsea : uh ... like i 'm free ? nick : i mean , you get to do whatever you want , whenever you want , whatever it is that makes you happy . chelsea : yeah . like when i was first designing . you know , taking my love of fashion and turning it into a successful business ... i mean , not that i can ever do that again , but ... nick : why not ? chelsea : is n't it obvious ? i burned way too many bridges . plus , with chloe gone , it 's just -- it would never be the same . nick : well , there 's no rush , right ? you take your time , kick around some ideas . i 'm excited to see what kind of choices a windfall like this can open up for you . and the ones that you get to leave behind forever . chelsea : yeah , oh , i 'm never going back to that life -- conning people , feeling ashamed all the time ... no way . billy : you better stop what the hell you 're doing . mariah : here i come to save the day . kyle : thanks . have a seat . mariah : wow . you look great . were you up all night sewing bridesmaids ' dresses . kyle : mm . mariah : is that why you needed to vent ?

kyle : wish i were . mariah : i mean , i knew celeste left town suddenly , but i had no idea why . kyle : yeah , and after he made me sound like a loser with celeste , theo even managed to get inside lola 's head with that stuff . then he had the gall to come to me and offer to throw a bachelor party . mariah : wow . what a tool . kyle : has it down to a science . mariah : why do you think he 's acting this way ? kyle : theo ca n't stand the fact that his party buddy found something better to do with his life , and , trust me , i have zero interest in the kind of bachelor party he 'd cook up . [ sighs ] i 'm about ready to elope , swear to god . if i thought i could convince lola , we would -- mariah : okay , hey . whoa , whoa , whoa . i 'm just gon na stop you right there because , first of all , nobody is eloping , so you might as well get that out of your head . kyle : [ chuckles ] mariah : second , it kind of just seems like theo has a case of arrested development . and he only has as much power as you give him . so there 's no way that he 's gon na get in between you and lola because what you have is too strong . kyle : [ sighs ] mariah : kyle ! seriously , you are about to marry the love of your life . do not let this joker get to you . kyle : it 's not just theo . phyllis said something about what i did to get what i wanted , what i put summer through ... mariah : you know what , just forget about snowflake and her witch of a mother . kyle , you deserve this . you deserve to be happy . theo : this hotel launch is gon na be lit , and i 've created buzz like you would n't believe . now , we 've got 27 a - listers confirmed so far , and it 's building on itself . people are clamoring for an invite . that ticket 's a tough one to get , and we 're gon na keep it that way . now , this is our social media traffic . now , the hotel is trending a little more each day . now , we are timing our tweets and press releases so we peak the day of the launch party . i 've also integrated a number of corporate tie - ins to help with name recognition . it 's gon na be a monster as soon as the doors open . phyllis : this is impressive . theo : i 'm glad you 're pleased . phyllis : um , you 're very , very good . you have some incredible resources , and you know exactly what to do with them . theo : well , i 've had to learn whatever i can whenever i can . stay hungry , right ? phyllis : you 're quoting me now . theo : i particularly liked that interview you did when you were c.e.o . of jabot . the guy from the finance rag ? phyllis : oh ! theo : you really tore him a new one . phyllis : yeah . you 've done your homework . theo : well , your story fascinates me because we 're so alike . phyllis : are we ?

billy : i 'm not playing , man . did you break into our house yourself ? adam : wait a minute , you and victoria had a break - in ? billy : or you paid somebody to do it . you got some poor bastard to do your dirty work ? just like your daddy , right ? adam : okay , i think we should be talking about the lack of security at victoria 's , okay ? if you ca n't provide appropriative protection for a child ... billy : you 're a piece of crap , adam . do you hear me ? adam : whatever your problem is -- billy : stay away from me , and leave me alone ! adam : i do n't know what you 're ranting about , but you need to leave , okay ? billy : you put delia 's doll on my pillow . what kind of sick mind does that ? adam : wait a minute , wait minute . what ? billy : after everything you did to her , you 're gon na torment me , too ? adam : okay , look . billy , no . no , i would never , for any reason , do something like that to you , okay ? billy : then who did ? adam : i swear to you , i would never disrespect her memory in that way . billy : who did it , then ? adam : i do n't know what is going on , okay , or who is doing it , but i swear to you , it has nothing to do with me , okay ? billy : then who ? adam : but , right now , i need you to leave because i 'm having my first visitation with christian today . right here . so if you do n't mind ... billy : enjoy your time with your son , adam . treasure every moment you have together . mariah : listen . you ca n't blame yourself for what happened with summer . she knew that you were in love with lola , and she married you anyway . she took full advantage of that situation , and it worked for her . kyle : until it didn't . mariah : do n't kid yourself . kyle , summer will forever be the heroine of her own melodrama , who had surgery to save lola 's life . kyle : [ sighs ] mariah : it does n't matter what crummy thing she does in the future . she will always be able to play that card . you know i 'm right . god help us all . kyle : okay , okay . you 've got a point . mariah : do you think that any of us would be better off if you had stayed in a loveless marriage with that twit ? kyle : no . mariah : exactly . look , you are a different person since lola has come into your life . you make different choices . and it 's been really amazing watching you grow as a person . and , yes , sometimes it 's also been funny as hell . kyle : oh , yeah ? [ chuckles ] mariah : yeah . so , you know what , if your party bro ca n't accept that and accept you , he was never really your friend in the first place . kyle : mm . `` thanks , mom . `` mariah : anytime . kyle : what would i do without you to rush in at a moment 's notice and peel me off the ceiling ? mariah : i do n't know . but i do have an idea . kyle : uh - oh . mariah : [ chuckles ] kyle : what ? mariah : i am gon na throw you a bachelor party . and one that you will actually enjoy . kyle : [ scoffs ] nick : we should celebrate . chelsea : i like that idea . what do you have in mind ? [ cellphone rings ] ah , somebody 's got lousy timing . nick : adam , of course . he can leave a message . chelsea : well , you should get it . it could be important . nick : oh , i doubt it . i do n't think even adam can ruin my mood today . what do you want ? adam : this is a courtesy call to inform you of the judge 's decision . nick : what decision ? adam : well , victoria has been in flagrant violation of the court order granting me visitation , coming up with all kinds of bogus excuses to keep me from seeing my son while allowing you unlimited access . so my new lawyer went to his honor , who was n't , uh , happy about his ruling be subverted . nick : yeah , i heard michael was planning to petition the court . adam : done and won . i assume you 'll be hearing about it shortly . and i just wanted to give you a heads up that i will be with christian later . nick : today ? adam : just so there 's no awkwardness if we should happen to run into each other . and i just wanted to give you a fair warning . i will be telling him the truth , that i am his real father . nick : no , adam . you better not say a word to him about that , i 'm serious . adam ! adam ! chelsea : what -- nick : hey , monique . it 's nick . listen , i know , uh , christian 's supposed to see adam later today . you call me before that happens , all right ? it 's urgent . chelsea : what happened ? what did adam say ? nick : the judge is ordering victoria to let adam see christian today . chelsea : oh , no ... nick : i just got to track down monique before she takes him to wherever it is they 're going . chelsea : okay . all right . well , i 'll go with you . nick : no , i got to -- chelsea : no . nick : no , i got to -- chelsea : if the judge is getting involved , it means he 's monitoring the situation very closely . you do n't want to be seen as interfering . adam could use it against you . just let me go . i 'll be a buffer ! nick : i need to deal with this on my own . chelsea : you are playing right into his hands , nick . nick : look , just sit tight , all right ? i just need to get ahold of monique , and we 're gon na be fine . chelsea : [ sighs ] `` the young and the restless `` will continue . kyle : you 'd do that , throw me a bachelor party ? mariah : i offered , did n't i ? kyle : why would you even want to ? mariah : well , because , duh ! who better than an actual friend of yours rather than some immature lowlife who just wants to relive the past ? this is about sending you off into your fabulous future with the woman that you love . you have to do it up right ! you know what , in fact , i 'm gon na handle her bachelorette party , too . no ! no ! wait ! oh , my god , i just had it ! what about one big giant co - ed night ? because this is america ! we can do whatever we want , so who cares ? kyle : i love it . mariah : yes !

[ sighs ] do you think adam would do something like that ? chelsea : no way , absolutely not . adam is capable of a lot of things , but he would never do that . i promise , he was sick over delia . that is a line he would never cross . billy : yeah , that 's what he said . chelsea : well , maybe , this one time , you should take what he says at face value . billy : look , i lived through it with you , with adam going to the lengths that he did to try and get you back . so i feel like i should warn you . just because you 've changed , chelsea , it does n't mean he has . adam : hey , buddy . you know , i am so glad that we get to hang out today , christian . it is a real treat for me . and i want you to have just as much fun , okay ? i , um ... i brought some stuff for us to play with . what do you think about this ? monique : it 's okay , christian , go ahead and play . i 'll be right here watching , okay ? christian : okay . adam : you know , i have n't kicked a ball around in a while , but when i was your age , i used to love to play . ready ? all right . i was about your age when my dad taught me how to play . although , i did n't know he was my dad at the time . oh ! nice kick ! oh ! look at that ! that 's a goal ! nice job ! that was great . mariah : so , the format i just described -- does that -- that work for you ? kyle : are you kidding ? it 's perfect . lola will think so , too . mariah : great ! then that part is settled . kyle : it 's a lot to pull off , not much time before the wedding . how can i help ? mariah : i think you can just sit back and look pretty . no , please , let me take care of everything , and all you need to do is , uh , show up with your bride - to- be and have an amazing time . kyle : i 'm never gon na be able to thank you enough . mariah : no , you 're not . but , luckily , i am happy to do it . kyle : [ chuckles ] i ca n't wait to tell lola . mariah : oh ! please give her my best . kyle : yes . see ya . mariah : bye . theo : enough about kyle . phyllis : agreed . theo : question about the hotel . phyllis : mm - hmm . theo : once it opens , you 'll be making all this money for adam , but not for yourself , which i think is a shame . you 're the one with the vision for the place . phyllis : it is a shame . if you hear an `` amen ! `` from me , do n't be surprised . yes , why should adam reap all the rewards of my hard work ?

it 's all good . kyle : none of this is good . theo : okay , you do n't have to get so worked up about it . what went down back east ... that was then , this is now . you 're moving on , i get it . kyle : i wish you did . theo : okay , listen , kyle , to each his own . i 'm cool with that . i just want to throw you the bachelor party you deserve . kyle : what part of `` forget it , i 'm not interested , `` are you having trouble with ? i do n't -- phyllis : hey , kyle ! look at you ! you must be busy , making plans for the big day -- excited , oblivious of everyone you 've left in your wake . kyle : you 're behind the times , phyllis . phyllis : am i , kyle ? kyle : summer and i worked through things . we 're good . friends and colleagues . phyllis : mm . friends and colleagues . my goodness . yeah , well , you were not there when i was , picking up the pieces , having my daughter cry inconsolably in my arms . i saw firsthand what you did to her . yeah , you may have moved on from your disaster of a marriage , but my daughter is shattered . she may never be the same again . kyle : you 're selling her short . summer is an amazingly resilient person . phyllis : [ scoffs ] yes , she is . and she is moving on not because she wants to but because she has no choice , and she is determined and strong in ways you will never be . phyllis : you , with me . now . theo : you heard the lady . chelsea : it 's finally sinking in that this is real . i mean , that 's a lot more money than i 've seen in a very long time . nick : how 's it feel ? chelsea : uh ... like i 'm free ? nick : i mean , you get to do whatever you want , whenever you want , whatever it is that makes you happy . chelsea : yeah . like when i was first designing . you know , taking my love of fashion and turning it into a successful business ... i mean , not that i can ever do that again , but ... nick : why not ? chelsea : is n't it obvious ? i burned way too many bridges . plus , with chloe gone , it 's just -- it would never be the same . nick : well , there 's no rush , right ? you take your time , kick around some ideas . i 'm excited to see what kind of choices a windfall like this can open up for you . and the ones that you get to leave behind forever . chelsea : yeah , oh , i 'm never going back to that life -- conning people , feeling ashamed all the time ... no way . billy : you better stop what the hell you 're doing . mariah : here i come to save the day . kyle : thanks . have a seat . mariah : wow . you look great . were you up all night sewing bridesmaids ' dresses . kyle : mm . mariah : is that why you needed to vent ? kyle : mm . it 's theo . mariah : your friend from new york . kyle : so - called . he made a point of bad - mouthing me to celeste , filling her head with ... stories about how wild things were in new york . now she 's back in miami after telling lola she 's gon na skip our wedding . mariah : are you kidding ? kyle : wish i were . mariah : i mean , i knew celeste left town suddenly , but i had no idea why . kyle : yeah , and after he made me sound like a loser with celeste , theo even managed to get inside lola 's head with that stuff . then he had the gall to come to me and offer to throw a bachelor party . mariah : wow . what a tool . kyle : has it down to a science . mariah : why do you think he 's acting this way ? kyle : theo ca n't stand the fact that his party buddy found something better to do with his life , and , trust me , i have zero interest in the kind of bachelor party he 'd cook up . [ sighs ] i 'm about ready to elope , swear to god . if i thought i could convince lola , we would -- mariah : okay , hey . whoa , whoa , whoa . i 'm just gon na stop you right there because , first of all , nobody is eloping , so you might as well get that out of your head . kyle : [ chuckles ] mariah : second , it kind of just seems like theo has a case of arrested development . and he only has as much power as you give him . so there 's no way that he 's gon na get in between you and lola because what you have is too strong . kyle : [ sighs ] mariah : kyle ! seriously , you are about to marry the love of your life . do not let this joker get to you . kyle : it 's not just theo . phyllis said something about what i did to get what i wanted , what i put summer through ... mariah : you know what , just forget about snowflake and her witch of a mother . kyle , you deserve this . you deserve to be happy . theo : this hotel launch is gon na be lit , and i 've created buzz like you would n't believe . now , we 've got 27 a - listers confirmed so far , and it 's building on itself . people are clamoring for an invite . that ticket 's a tough one to get , and we 're gon na keep it that way . now , this is our social media traffic . now , the hotel is trending a little more each day . now , we are timing our tweets and press releases so we peak the day of the launch party . i 've also integrated a number of corporate tie - ins to help with name recognition . it 's gon na be a monster as soon as the doors open . phyllis : this is impressive . theo : i 'm glad you 're pleased . phyllis : um , you 're very , very good . you have some incredible resources , and you know exactly what to do with them . theo : well , i 've had to learn whatever i can whenever i can . stay hungry , right ? phyllis : you 're quoting me now . theo : i particularly liked that interview you did when you were c.e.o . of jabot . the guy from the finance rag ? phyllis : oh ! theo : you really tore him a new one . phyllis : yeah . you 've done your homework . theo : well , your story fascinates me because we 're so alike . phyllis : are we ? theo : we were n't handed success at birth . we 've had to earn it . work for everything we 've got . not like kyle and the rest of the elite . phyllis : right . well , listen , theo , as long as you help me make the grand phoenix the star of the digital media universe -- you know , keep people coming in , keep it in the forefront of social media , make money ... i 'm good . now , my daughter ... that 's a different story all together . adam : i have no idea what you 're talking about , billy . billy : i know it was you , you bastard . adam : okay , excuse me ? billy : i 'm not playing , man . did you break into our house yourself ? adam : wait a minute , you and victoria had a break - in ? billy : or you paid somebody to do it . you got some poor bastard to do your dirty work ? just like your daddy , right ? adam : okay , i think we should be talking about the lack of security at victoria 's , okay ? if you ca n't provide appropriative protection for a child ... billy : you 're a piece of crap , adam . do you hear me ? adam : whatever your problem is -- billy : stay away from me , and leave me alone ! adam : i do n't know what you 're ranting about , but you need to leave , okay ? billy : you put delia 's doll on my pillow . what kind of sick mind does that ? adam : wait a minute , wait minute . what ? billy : after everything you did to her , you 're gon na torment me , too ? adam : okay , look . billy , no . no , i would never , for any reason , do something like that to you , okay ? billy : then who did ? adam : i swear to you , i would never disrespect her memory in that way . billy : who did it , then ? adam : i do n't know what is going on , okay , or who is doing it , but i swear to you , it has nothing to do with me , okay ? billy : then who ? adam : but , right now , i need you to leave because i 'm having my first visitation with christian today . right here . so if you do n't mind ... billy : enjoy your time with your son , adam . treasure every moment you have together . mariah : listen . you ca n't blame yourself for what happened with summer . she knew that you were in love with lola , and she married you anyway . she took full advantage of that situation , and it worked for her . kyle : until it didn't . mariah : do n't kid yourself . kyle , summer will forever be the heroine of her own melodrama , who had surgery to save lola 's life . kyle : [ sighs ] mariah : it does n't matter what crummy thing she does in the future . she will always be able to play that card . you know i 'm right . god help us all . kyle : okay , okay . you 've got a point . mariah : do you think that any of us would be better off if you had stayed in a loveless marriage with that twit ? kyle : no . mariah : exactly . look , you are a different person since lola has come into your life . you make different choices . and it 's been really amazing watching you grow as a person . and , yes , sometimes it 's also been funny as hell . kyle : oh , yeah ? [ chuckles ] mariah : yeah . so , you know what , if your party bro ca n't accept that and accept you , he was never really your friend in the first place . kyle : mm . `` thanks , mom . `` mariah : anytime . kyle : what would i do without you to rush in at a moment 's notice and peel me off the ceiling ? mariah : i do n't know . but i do have an idea . kyle : uh - oh . mariah : [ chuckles ] kyle : what ? mariah : i am gon na throw you a bachelor party . and one that you will actually enjoy . kyle : [ scoffs ] nick : we should celebrate . chelsea : i like that idea . what do you have in mind ? [ cellphone rings ] ah , somebody 's got lousy timing . nick : adam , of course . he can leave a message . chelsea : well , you should get it . it could be important . nick : oh , i doubt it . i do n't think even adam can ruin my mood today . what do you want ? adam : this is a courtesy call to inform you of the judge 's decision . nick : what decision ? adam : well , victoria has been in flagrant violation of the court order granting me visitation , coming up with all kinds of bogus excuses to keep me from seeing my son while allowing you unlimited access . so my new lawyer went to his honor , who was n't , uh , happy about his ruling be subverted . nick : yeah , i heard michael was planning to petition the court . adam : done and won . i assume you 'll be hearing about it shortly . and i just wanted to give you a heads up that i will be with christian later . nick : today ? adam : just so there 's no awkwardness if we should happen to run into each other . and i just wanted to give you a fair warning . i will be telling him the truth , that i am his real father . nick : no , adam . you better not say a word to him about that , i 'm serious . adam ! adam ! chelsea : what -- nick : hey , monique . it 's nick . listen , i know , uh , christian 's supposed to see adam later today . you call me before that happens , all right ? it 's urgent . chelsea : what happened ? what did adam say ? nick : the judge is ordering victoria to let adam see christian today . chelsea : oh , no ... nick : i just got to track down monique before she takes him to wherever it is they 're going . chelsea : okay . all right . well , i 'll go with you . nick : no , i got to -- chelsea : no . nick : no , i got to -- chelsea : if the judge is getting involved , it means he 's monitoring the situation very closely . you do n't want to be seen as interfering . adam could use it against you . just let me go . i 'll be a buffer ! nick : i need to deal with this on my own . chelsea : you are playing right into his hands , nick . nick : look , just sit tight , all right ? i just need to get ahold of monique , and we 're gon na be fine . chelsea : [ sighs ] `` the young and the restless `` will continue . kyle : you 'd do that , throw me a bachelor party ? mariah : i offered , did n't i ? kyle : why would you even want to ? mariah : well , because , duh ! who better than an actual friend of yours rather than some immature lowlife who just wants to relive the past ? this is about sending you off into your fabulous future with the woman that you love . you have to do it up right ! you know what , in fact , i 'm gon na handle her bachelorette party , too . no ! no ! wait ! oh , my god , i just had it ! what about one big giant co - ed night ? because this is america ! we can do whatever we want , so who cares ? kyle : i love it . mariah : yes !

[ sighs ] it 's like that story you tell about yourself because you do n't want to deal with the truth of who you really are . michael : nick , i know how this looks . i -- nick : the day of the hearing , you dropped me as a client , and now i know why . what my little boy is facing today is because of you . adam is about to tell him that he is his father . that he is ! so i hope you 're proud of yourself . michael : i 'm sorry . nick : oh , right ... michael : the outcome would not have been any better if i had gone on with the court and my conflict of interest would come out in the middle of trial . nick : no , your only conflict was you being in league with adam . you filed that motion on his behalf . did you honestly think i was n't gon na hear that ? seriously ? he 's getting a court - mandated visit with my son today because of you . i ought to sue your ass into oblivion . michael : i urged you to get other representation . nick : delaying things would not have mattered , and you know that . just like you knew he was gon na try and use that video against me , to undermine me . what i do n't know is why . i thought we were friends . michael : look , the simple fact is that -- nick : what -- what is it , michael ? were you coerced ? michael : no . nick : then how did he get to you ? the only thing i can come up with , the only reason why you would betray me is that he must have something serious to hold over you . michael : i 've got an appointment . nick : what he is about to do to an innocent child , to my son , is on you . billy : so , how are you really doing with adam being back ? chelsea : it 's been ... complicated . billy : i would imagine that 's an understatement . chelsea : mm - hmm . adam thought that we could just pick up where we left off . but i made it very clear to him , too much time has passed . i mean , things have changed . i 've changed . billy : i 'm sure he did n't like that . chelsea : i just think adam is still dealing with so much , you know ? i mean , victor drags him back here with all these expectations , expecting him to play this one particular role . i mean , i do n't even think adam knows what he wants . billy : except for nick 's kid . chelsea : well , get this -- adam actually offered me a deal . he said he would stop fighting for custody of christian if connor and i move back in with him . billy : do n't tell me you 're considering that . chelsea : of course not . but then adam said it was just a test . but i feel like there was more to it . i feel like he was hoping i would do it , and we could go back to the life we once had planned . billy : just not on the run from the law this time . chelsea : yeah . adam 's picking up from where things were three years ago , and for connor , and for me , our lives moved on . i mean , it took so much love and time and patience to help my son get over the loss of his dad , and now finally -- finally -- he 's happy connor , you know , and he 's thriving . billy : i 'm really happy to hear that . chelsea : yeah . calvin was really wonderful with him . he was , you know , the father figure connor really needed , and i just got through telling connor about calvin , and now i 'm supposed to tell him that his dad 's alive ? i just -- i do n't know if i should . billy : i hear what you 're saying . i agree . you 're trying to do what 's right for connor . and you ca n't assume that adam is doing the same thing because we both know what he 's capable of and how far he 'll go . even when there 's a child involved . chelsea : billy ... what 's going on ? billy : what do you mean ? chelsea : you forget how well i know you . something is weighing you down . spill . billy : just adam being back in town has really stirred things up in me with , you know , my memories of delia and ... i 'm having these really vivid , uh , you know , different kind of dreams , and it 's getting to a point where i do n't want to go to sleep . chelsea : oh , that 's awful . i 'm so sorry . billy : yesterday , i figured , you know , i should probably take a nap , went to pull back the sheets , and , uh , delia 's doll was sitting there on my pillow . i do n't know how it got there . i do n't know who did it , but i have a pretty good idea . [ sighs ] do you think adam would do something like that ? chelsea : no way , absolutely not . adam is capable of a lot of things , but he would never do that . i promise , he was sick over delia . that is a line he would never cross . billy : yeah , that 's what he said . chelsea : well , maybe , this one time , you should take what he says at face value . billy : look , i lived through it with you , with adam going to the lengths that he did to try and get you back . so i feel like i should warn you . just because you 've changed , chelsea , it does n't mean he has . adam : hey , buddy . you know , i am so glad that we get to hang out today , christian . it is a real treat for me . and i want you to have just as much fun , okay ? i , um ... i brought some stuff for us to play with . what do you think about this ? monique : it 's okay , christian , go ahead and play . i 'll be right here watching , okay ? christian : okay . adam : you know , i have n't kicked a ball around in a while , but when i was your age , i used to love to play . ready ? all right . i was about your age when my dad taught me how to play . although , i did n't know he was my dad at the time . oh ! nice kick ! oh ! look at that ! that 's a goal ! nice job ! that was great . mariah : so , the format i just described -- does that -- that work for you ? kyle : are you kidding ? it 's perfect . lola will think so , too . mariah : great ! then that part is settled . kyle : it 's a lot to pull off , not much time before the wedding . how can i help ? mariah : i think you can just sit back and look pretty . no , please , let me take care of everything , and all you need to do is , uh , show up with your bride - to- be and have an amazing time . kyle : i 'm never gon na be able to thank you enough . mariah : no , you 're not . but , luckily , i am happy to do it . kyle : [ chuckles ] i ca n't wait to tell lola . mariah : oh ! please give her my best . kyle : yes . see ya . mariah : bye . theo : enough about kyle . phyllis : agreed . theo : question about the hotel . phyllis : mm - hmm . theo : once it opens , you 'll be making all this money for adam , but not for yourself , which i think is a shame . you 're the one with the vision for the place . phyllis : it is a shame . if you hear an `` amen ! `` from me , do n't be surprised . yes , why should adam reap all the rewards of my hard work ?

because i hear my son . i mean , what else do you call me being willing to pay for her relocation ? i 've already had her place all packed up for her ! liam : you owe her more than that . bill : no , i do n't ! and i 'm not giving her another year . liam : what do you expect me to do right now ? honest question . really . i mean , looking at me , knowing how passionately i feel about righting this wrong ... what do you expect me to do ? bill : well , that 's easy . think . remember who you are . a spencer . we 're loyal to each other above all else . liam : even when it goes against everything i believe in ? no , that 's what you wish i would do . i 'm asking you -- what do you expect ? bill : family loyalty . nothing more important . that 's what i expect . liam : i do n't agree with that . i never have . so maybe you do n't know your son very well . [ sighs ] this is exhausting . i do n't want to be here , dad . i do n't ' want to be at war with you . i thought we were past this . bill : we should be past it , liam ! are you kidding me ? with everything i 've done to compromise ? i do n't want to be at war with you , either ! but you have got to stop putting so much focus on spectra 's legacy and start tending to your own . sky will benefit our family for generations to come ! you should be proud of that . embrace her ! liam : sorry . i 'm not gon na stand by and let you decimate the tiniest little shred of hope these people have left . i mean ... you already wrecked sally 's confidence , right ? you destroyed her love life , you torched her building , and now you want to take what 's left ? that 's not fair . you know that 's not fair . so , yeah , i 'll be in the building today with that ... motley crew , standing up for what 's right . bill : there 's nothing you can do to stop it , liam . the explosives are already in place . liam : well , then , i guess you 're gon na have to blow me up , too . justin : hey , hey , hey ! had to stop off to get these , baby ! you get any word from alex yet ? he should be done with the final preparations , right ? then the next step is ka - bloom ! groundbreaking ceremony , baby ! come on , dollar bill . man , you should be happier . this is your big moment and all . bill : oh , i 'd like to be able to enjoy it , but roadblocks keep getting put in my way . justin : yeah , but not anymore . bill : do n't be so sure . justin : what , is there something you 're not telling me ? bill : liam had the brilliant idea of convincing the spectras to stage a sit- in . justin : in there ? with demolition about to begin ? bill : and my bleeding - heart son is taking part . steffy : i love my husband . and i respect the man that he is . he is kind and he is generous and he roots for the underdog . i mean , those are wonderful qualities , and i really cherish that about him . but sally ? he has done way too much . what , he 's taking part in a sit - in ? i mean , it 's -- it 's his idea , no less . like , and knowing how i feel , knowing that he 's putting himself in harm 's way , and for what ? for what , her ? for sally spectra ? darlita : eventually they 're gon na try to make us leave . what do we do ? shirley : we hold our ground for as long as we can . sally : stand firm . shirley : if they try to carry us out , so be it . let the whole world watch . sally : and maybe i 'm naive , but i 'm hoping it wo n't come to that with liam involved . saul : is he ? should n't he be here by now ? shirley : saul 's right . check your phone . sally : nothing . darlita : liam would n't just ... abandon us , right ? sally : he 'll be here ! liam : hey . sally : see ? look ! there he is . shirley : thank god . what 's going on outside ? saul : did you see the demo crew ? darlita : did they say anything ? sally : what are they doing ? liam : uh , just checking explosives , i think . they actually tried to stop me from coming in here , but i blew them off . sally : did you talk to bill ? liam : yeah . i told him what we 're doing . shirley : he knows you 're involved ? liam : oh , yeah . sally : well , that 's it , then . i mean , he does n't care about us , but there 's no way he 's gon na blow this building up with liam inside . justin : [ sighs ] so liam was n't bluffing . the crew said he ran inside . what do you want to do ?

liam , i 'm not gon na let you do it . a sit - in at spectra is way too dangerous . bill is demoing the building today . liam : not if i 'm in there with them . bill : so we 're good ? the explosives have been loaded , and the building has been pre - weakened . my boys are at an early lunch . when i get back , we 'll do a final check , make sure that the structures and the whole parcel is clear . bill : and then you 'll be ready to do the implosion ? well , technically , it 's called an `` explosive demolition , `` but yes . when you give the go - ahead , the building will come down . now , based on the neighboring lots , we 'll have your building fall on the east side of your property , right there . bill : this is great , alex . when i give the word , i want you to demo that building so hard there will be nothing left but dust and memories . the vision is finally becoming a reality . you 're going up , sky , and nothing 's going to stop you .

[ door opens ] we 'll start over here and then we 'll come over to the -- what are you doing in here ? who are you ? sally : name 's on the building . look , you need to get out of here , now . we 're demolishing the buildings in this structure today , if you somehow did n't see our setup outside . sally : cool . looking forward to the show . excuse me ? sally : we 're not leaving . liam : dad , i understand how much this project means to you . i do n't agree with it , but i understand it . fine . okay . build your skyscraper . build one the likes of which the world has never seen , with your name on top so big and bright , they 'll be able to see it from santa monica . fine ! just give it a year . give sally that much . this is make - or - break time for spectra , and a year is nothing for you . bill : then you have n't listened to a word i said about all the moving parts involved in a build of this magnitude . liam , come on . i have been more than generous . i told you , i will relocate sally anywhere she wants to go , within reason . do you have any idea what kind of cash outlay we 're talking about ? sally could never do that on her own . liam : you 're missing the point again . this is not just about money for her . this is about family legacy , and i know you understand that ! bill : [ sighs ] liam : do n't you ? sally should get to relaunch spectra fashions in the place where it all began . you want to right the wrong ? this is how you right the wrong . bill : touching , but if i was in the sentimentality business , i would put out a line of greeting cards . sally can design anywhere , but that location belongs to sky . liam : you 're really not budging on this , are you ? bill : i have budged , liam ! i 'll tell you what -- i 'm gon na sweeten the pot for you against my better judgment , but out of respect for you . we will give her all of our support . we will get behind her new line . i will have jarrett write a glowing article about spectra fashions being the comeback story of the year . we 'll do whatever we can . how about that ? liam : yeah , until you and wyatt shoot it down with your majority vote . bill : i 'll put it writing . we 'll have it notarized . you can stamp it on your forehead . liam : [ laughs ] that 's almost funny . bill : i 'm not laughing , liam ! the subject is closed . sky is going to take her place on the l.a. skyline overlooking all of los angeles from that location . liam : [ sighs ] well , i tried . i tried . i thought i could reason with you . i thought i could appeal to your better nature on behalf of someone that you 've wrong so egregiously as a matter of fact that you would literally be in prison if anybody found out about it . but okay , fine , you do n't care . all you care about is your vanity project , not an ounce of compassion for any of these people . so , okay , do what you got to do . demolish the building . just know you 're gon na have to take me down with it . bill : what does that mean ? liam : it means the spectras are staging a sit - in , and i will be joining them . bill : [ laughs ] you do n't seem to be getting this . the explosives are set . we are going to blow up this building . you ca n't be here . darlita : we 're having a sit - down . saul : sit - in . sally : either way , we 're not leaving . shirley : hell , no ! we wo n't go ! darlita : we 've even got supplies . bottled water , frozen dinners ... shirley : you got frozen food ? darlita : it 'll take some time to thaw out . it 'll last longer . look , we 've got a job to do . mr. spencer wants this building off the face of the earth by end of day . sally : okay , well , i ca n't control what mr . spencer wants , only how i react to it . this building is my legacy , so if you want to tear it down , i 'm going down with it . knock yourself out . but we are not going anywhere . wyatt : liam 's staging a sit - in ? steffy : he 's participating in it . like the spectras are some great humanitarian cause . wyatt : [ sighs ] steffy : look , i love my husband , i want to support him , but in this case ... he is going way too far . bill : [ laughs ] a sit - in ? really ? liam : that 's correct . bill : you gon na tattoo a peace sign on your ass while you 're at it ? i mean , come on , liam ! what , are you living in a time warp ? liam : uh , dad , peaceful protests happen all the time , in case you have n't noticed . it 's what people of conscience do when they 're being oppressed . bill : `` people of conscience ? `` uh , that would be sally and her motley crew , and -- let me guess . hmm . i 'm the oppressor . liam : yeah . bill : [ chuckles ] liam : you bully them . you 're bigger and stronger and more ruthless than they 'll ever be . and they had the misfortune of getting in your way , and you have literally arranged to have their dreams implode , and sally does n't have the means to fight you back . she 's 100 % at your mercy , and you 've never shown her any . so ... that 's what oppression is . bill : that 's what business is , son . and i have n't always been king of the mountain , liam . there were sharks trying to eat me alive , take what i was building , and i can promise you i did n't have anybody there to fight my battles . and you better believe that nobody damn well showed me any mercy . but that is what i 'm willing to do for sally . and why ? because i hear my son . i mean , what else do you call me being willing to pay for her relocation ? i 've already had her place all packed up for her ! liam : you owe her more than that . bill : no , i do n't ! and i 'm not giving her another year . liam : what do you expect me to do right now ? honest question . really . i mean , looking at me , knowing how passionately i feel about righting this wrong ... what do you expect me to do ? bill : well , that 's easy . think . remember who you are . a spencer . we 're loyal to each other above all else . liam : even when it goes against everything i believe in ? no , that 's what you wish i would do . i 'm asking you -- what do you expect ? bill : family loyalty . nothing more important . that 's what i expect . liam : i do n't agree with that . i never have . so maybe you do n't know your son very well . [ sighs ] this is exhausting . i do n't want to be here , dad . i do n't ' want to be at war with you . i thought we were past this . bill : we should be past it , liam ! are you kidding me ? with everything i 've done to compromise ? i do n't want to be at war with you , either ! but you have got to stop putting so much focus on spectra 's legacy and start tending to your own . sky will benefit our family for generations to come ! you should be proud of that . embrace her ! liam : sorry . i 'm not gon na stand by and let you decimate the tiniest little shred of hope these people have left . i mean ... you already wrecked sally 's confidence , right ? you destroyed her love life , you torched her building , and now you want to take what 's left ? that 's not fair . you know that 's not fair . so , yeah , i 'll be in the building today with that ... motley crew , standing up for what 's right . bill : there 's nothing you can do to stop it , liam . the explosives are already in place . liam : well , then , i guess you 're gon na have to blow me up , too . justin : hey , hey , hey ! had to stop off to get these , baby ! you get any word from alex yet ? he should be done with the final preparations , right ? then the next step is ka - bloom ! groundbreaking ceremony , baby ! come on , dollar bill . man , you should be happier . this is your big moment and all . bill : oh , i 'd like to be able to enjoy it , but roadblocks keep getting put in my way . justin : yeah , but not anymore . bill : do n't be so sure . justin : what , is there something you 're not telling me ? bill : liam had the brilliant idea of convincing the spectras to stage a sit- in . justin : in there ? with demolition about to begin ? bill : and my bleeding - heart son is taking part . steffy : i love my husband . and i respect the man that he is . he is kind and he is generous and he roots for the underdog . i mean , those are wonderful qualities , and i really cherish that about him . but sally ? he has done way too much . what , he 's taking part in a sit - in ? i mean , it 's -- it 's his idea , no less . like , and knowing how i feel , knowing that he 's putting himself in harm 's way , and for what ? for what , her ? for sally spectra ? darlita : eventually they 're gon na try to make us leave . what do we do ? shirley : we hold our ground for as long as we can . sally : stand firm . shirley : if they try to carry us out , so be it . let the whole world watch . sally : and maybe i 'm naive , but i 'm hoping it wo n't come to that with liam involved . saul : is he ? should n't he be here by now ? shirley : saul 's right . check your phone . sally : nothing . darlita : liam would n't just ... abandon us , right ? sally : he 'll be here ! liam : hey . sally : see ? look ! there he is . shirley : thank god . what 's going on outside ? saul : did you see the demo crew ? darlita : did they say anything ? sally : what are they doing ? liam : uh , just checking explosives , i think . they actually tried to stop me from coming in here , but i blew them off . sally : did you talk to bill ? liam : yeah . i told him what we 're doing . shirley : he knows you 're involved ? liam : oh , yeah . sally : well , that 's it , then . i mean , he does n't care about us , but there 's no way he 's gon na blow this building up with liam inside . justin : [ sighs ] so liam was n't bluffing . the crew said he ran inside . what do you want to do ?

rick : oh , that 's all right . i got it , i got it . michelle : okay . since when do n't you accept help from your little sister ? you got today 's duty roster there . who are you looking for ? are you ... you 're looking for dad . rick : yeah , but ... michelle , i was hoping that you would n't be here today . michelle : rick , i can handle myself with dad , okay ? rick : i 'm ... i 'm going to talk to dad today , michelle , and this is the last place that we need to be . michelle : what are you going to do ? rick : i 'm asking dad to leave the hospital . ed : now you shut your mouth ! michelle : no , i wo n't , because i want to know the truth , and i want to hear you say it ! ed : i did n't do anything . michelle : oh , dad , say it ... ed : i did nothing ! michelle : tell me ... ed : you are not talking about me . this is not me ! _ michelle : please , tell me , dad ! _ ed : i did nothing ! rick : she told me that you slapped her in the face and that she 's worried about you . ed : so just leave it be . rick : are you drinking ? frank : you know , i came by to get a cup of coffee , but it looks like you could really use one . marina : you should have seen him . i mean , he was practically sprinting . marah : he walked across the room , mom . it was amazing . i mean , you should let shayne tell you himself . marina : or better yet he can show you . shayne : it was just a few steps . really , it was no big deal . marina : yes , it was . come on , you got to show your mom , shayne . reva : your cheerleading team here has been telling me all about your morning . shayne : all lies . reva : oh , i do n't think so . and you know what ? seeing as i missed it the first time you walked , i intend to be in a front - row seat for it this time . marina : yeah , you heard the woman . come on , you got to show her . shayne : no , i 'm tired . i ... really , this is ... i do n't want to overdo it this time . marina : get your cute butt out of that chair and take a few steps for your mom . shayne : i said i 'm tired , okay ? i do n't have to perform on cue ! marina : shayne ... shayne : i just ... i just mean there 's only so much i can do in one day , you know ? ( sighs ) and seriously , anyway , it 's like watching paint dry , you know ? i 'm a million times faster on my wheels . marina : yeah , right now . i mean , pretty soon , though , you 're going to be running circles around that wheelchair , you know ? and you 're going to run around the bases before long . shayne : right . you know what ? i forgot something in my room . marina : he 's okay . i just ... i pushed him a little bit hard this morning . reva : all in good time . just baby steps . marina : yeah . reva : baby steps . ( knock on door ) marah : i 'll get it . oh , hi . shayne will be happy to see you . he 's a little overwhelmed by female energy right now . he 's in his room . sandy : well , shayne is n't the only family member i came to check up on . marah : as you can tell , i am perfectly fine . sandy : we have n't spoken since new year 's eve . marah : sorry . sandy : i 'm starting to think you 're avoiding me . marah : no , i 've just ... i 've been busy , really . sandy : yeah , real busy . i saw you , marah , coming out of jeffrey o'neill 's room . you , uh , spent the night with him , did n't you ? eden : what ? tony : what do you mean , what ? did you do it ? you did n't . eden : no . i have n't had a chance to make the keys yet . just give me a break , tony , all right ? tony : okay , eden , you know what ? get on it , please . make the copies ; you get them to me and your job is done . you want me to help bill , right ? eden : i do n't think bill needs your help . tony : all right , well , you know what ? there 's only one way for us to find out for sure . eden : i am going to prove to you that bill 's clean . tony : eden , bill is not the only one on the line here now . if you do n't do this , i 'm telling you right now , i will . you understand ? eden : you know , maybe it is time for us to cut our losses and fill bill and danny in . tony : well , you know what ? for all we know that 's exactly what our mystery guy wants . we handle this ourselves . eden : and you do n't know that . we might be playing right into his hands . tony : oh , you know what ? just ... you call me when you have it . eden : yeah , but i still do n't ... ( phone clicks ) tony : hey . danny : hey , you . i did n't know you were stopping by . tony : i have to make an appointment now ? danny : ( laughs ) yeah , right . tony : so how 's the campaign going ? you know , after all those years of perfecting your scowl , having to give it all up for smiling , handshaking ... danny : no , i 'm keeping the scowl in reserve just for you . it 's ... campaign 's going great . i mean , i 'm booked solid . i 'm getting tired of the sound of my own voice . tony : that 's good . campaign manager -- how 's he working out ? danny : bill ? he 's ... great . he 's doing a great job . we 're working really well together . why ? tony : you trust him , danny ? eden : ( gasps ) how long have you been standing there ? bill : long enough . long enough to know that i need you right here , right now . frank : you okay ? you look beat . ed : no , it 's just , you know , between the clinic and the hospital , it 's ... frank : i can imagine . marina 's told me that you 've been really great with shayne . it 's really tough , seeing a young kid go through something like that . ed : yeah . frank : how 's michelle doing ? i have n't seen her in ages . i mean , i really miss her . ed : she 's busy , like just about everybody else . frank : yeah , i can imagine , with danny 's campaign . that 's ... that 's pretty exciting . it 's got to be kind of weird for you , though . i mean , danny versus ross ? i mean , that 's ... a race like that could split a whole town up . look , ed , i know danny 's come a long way , but i really wish he was n't doing this , because in the long run , i do n't think it 'd be good for springfield . and anyway , i guess i should n't be saying that to his father - in- law . i 'm sorry . ed : oh , it 's ... i thought the same thing myself a couple of times . you know , i will take another cup of coffee , but if you do n't mind , could i have it to go ? frank : yeah , you got it , buddy . michelle : rick , you 're really going to ask dad to take a leave from the hospital ? rick : i mean , hopefully , i can help him come to the right decision , michelle . i mean , i 'm not suggesting anything permanent . just for now , this is the best thing for everybody . michelle : because of what happened between dad and me ? rick : michelle , he 's completely out of control . i mean , not only did he mess up shayne 's meds , but there was a drowning victim that got ... wheeled into the er and ... and he completely and totally froze . michelle : a drowning victim ? rick : this woman was in terrible shape . loc , hypertensive . but you know dad . i mean , michelle , he 's handled a million cases like this in the past without blinking . but this time , he just ... it was ... he just stood there and he was like ... michelle : it was like he saw a ghost . rick : ... staring right through this person . i have seen him go through so many things in the past , michelle , but i have never seen him like this , ever . michelle : i know , i know . he needs help . rick : yeah , he needs help . and we 're going to do everything we can help him , michelle . but if he wants to screw up his life , there 's not a damn thing we can do to stop him . but i 'll be damned if i 'm going to stand here and watch him hurt somebody . it 's not going to happen . i 'm asking him to leave the hospital . michelle : okay , okay . do what you have to do . rick : you 're not going to fight me on this ? boy , you 're usually the first person to come to his defense . i 'm just surprised , that 's all . michelle : yeah , me , too , about a lot of things . marah : are you stalking me now , sandy ? sandy : get over yourself , marah . i was picking up my equipment the morning after the new year 's eve party . the storage room 's on jeffrey 's floor , and lucky me , i caught your exit . do n't tell me you 're working on another contract . it was a little too early for that . marah : this is so ridiculous . how can you even ask me about this ? sandy : family looks out for one another . > from where i 'm sitting , you 're in trouble . marah : sandy ... sandy : this guy 's a creep . i 'm not going to stand by and watch him ... marah : ... you are my brother , okay , not my keeper . i can take care of myself . sandy : that 's not what it looked like . marah : well , what it looked like and what it was are two completely different things , neither of which are your business . sandy : i 'm making it my business . look , whatever happened , marah , you can tell me . i mean , did he ... get you drunk ? force himself on you ? marah : okay , you know , you want details ? i 'll give you details . i 'll tell you every last thing that happened . sandy : i do n't need you to draw me a picture . i think i can get it . marah : oh , i do n't think so . sandy , you see , i went over there with one thing on my mind . i wanted him . and he was unbelievable . sandy : that 's enough for me ... marah : no , you asked ; now you have to listen . he was sweet and caring and gentle . sandy : i 'm out of here . marah : he was a perfect gentleman . he let me down easy and he let me fall asleep in his arms . sandy : so , you and he , you guys did n't ... marah : no , no , we did n't . but it was still one of the best nights of my life . sandy : how 's that ? marah : because he was honest and respectful , which is more than i can say for some people . sandy : okay , maybe i deserved that one , but that does n't mean that jeffrey o'neill 's the guy for you . marah : you know what ? sandy : he 's a ... marah : sandy ? do n't ruin my memories of that night , okay ? sandy : marah ... marah : leave it alone . it 's all i 've got . now , if you want to see shayne , he 's in his room along with mom . danny : why would n't i trust bill ? tony : well , i mean for starters , he 's not blood . danny : yeah . true . okay , i trust him about as much i trust anyone who is n't family . but last time i checked , family was n't available . why ? has it changed ? are you looking to replace him ? tony : no , danny , the only thing i know about politics is that i do n't belong . danny : you could learn . i did . tony : i do n't ... no offense . listen , i 'm not no good at making posters , man . danny : well , a campaign manager does a lot more than make posters . tony : that 's exactly why i had to ask the question . danny : okay . bill 's great . he 's doing a terrific job . in fact , when i win this election ... when i win this election , i 'm going to owe a large part of that to him . but if truth be told , if it really were up to me , i 'd much rather you were watching my back , yeah . tony : oh , come on , that 's one thing you do know . you know i 've always got your back , all right ? danny : right . a lot of things are different now . i do miss having you around . i do . there are things that i could only tell you , that only you could understand . do n't you have a ranch be taking care of , cowboy ? tony : wait a second . hold on . you 're kicking me out ? danny : or whatever it is you do ? tony : you 're kicking me out ? something i said ? is that it ? danny : no . i got a meeting . that 's all . tony : all right . suit yourself . that 's fine . but you know what ? listen , danny , maybe this is best , you know ? maybe i can do more for you on the outside than i can on the inside . now , listen , just because i 'm not by your side does n't mean i do n't watch your back . night and day . okay ? bill : you know the one thing sexier than seeing you in one of my shirts is seeing you out of it . eden : oh , and think about all the money i 've wasted on lingerie . did n't you say something about going to work ? bill : yeah , well , you know what they say : all work and no play ... eden : oh . ( laughter ) eden : really ? cassie : so what is it , a cooper family requirement that each one of you hold down at least two jobs ? ( laughs ) harley : ha , ha , ha . good morning to you , too . cassie : good morning . harley : what ? cassie : what do you mean , what ? it 's morning . a cup of coffee . harley : oh , i 'm sorry . did they run out in that fancy hotel that you own ? cassie : wow , you 're cranky . i like your dad 's coffee better than mine . is that a crime ? harley : no . and it 's totally fine . you 're going to have to help yourself , because lynn 's in the back and i got to go . cassie : no , you ca n't go . harley : no , i have to , remember ? cooper family -- i have to get to that second job . cassie : you are going nowhere , my friend . shayne : whatever it is you 're looking for , you 're not going to find anything . what ... i ca n't even find anything in this room myself . help me ... marina : score . do not doubt the organizational skills of marina cooper . marah : what is it ? marina : inspiration . i know my pep talks are maybe getting a little tired , so i thought you could do some good from hearing it from someone objective , and the sports page does not lie . okay . `` there 's no doubt that we will be hearing great things from this young man shayne lewis , very great things indeed . he is going to surprise us all . `` you see ? there it is , right there in black and white , after your first game last summer . shayne : yeah , and it was a long time ago . it was before my accident . marah : not that long ago . marina : yeah , i mean you have been through a lot , but you 're still the same person now that you were then , you know ? and it 's only a matter of time . jeffrey : hello ? anybody here ? shayne ? marah : oh , yeah ... i 'll go see who that is . hi . jeffrey : hi . i was looking ... looking for shayne . marah : yeah , i got that . he 's ... he 's in his room with marina and my mother and sandy . jeffrey : oh . well , good news travels fast . i heard he 's made some amazing progress . marah : what 's that ? jeffrey : oh , well , it 's something for him ... something for shayne . marah : wow , that 's really sweet of you . jeffrey : well , it 's just , you know , a couple of out - of - print baseball books , kind of a congratulations - for - getting - better type of gift , type of thing . but maybe it 's ... maybe it 's too soon . marah : for what ? jeffrey : for baseball . marah : no . you know , i do n't think so . we 've been talking about it and you know , it 's not good to give up on something you care about . you want to bring it to him ? you 're not coming ? jeffrey : no . why do n't ... why do n't you give it to him , okay ? i 've got to get going . marah : you just got here . you do n't want to give the present to shayne ? jeffrey : marah , marah , marah . i did n't know you were going to be here , okay ? your car 's not out front , so ... marah : well , it 's in the shop . so you 're just ... you 're going to leave ? it 's really that difficult for you to be around me ? jeffrey : sometimes , yeah . i really did n't come over here to try to make things even more awkward between us . i just came by to give shayne these books , so ... marah : ah , and you 've done that . jeffrey : yes , i have . so ... i got to get going . tell shayne i 'm happy for him . marah : i miss you . jeffrey : i miss you , too . but that 's the way it 's got to be . marah : and why is that , again ? i ca n't seem to remember . jeffrey : well , i have to remember for both of us , then . we 'll always have that night . but that 's all we can have . marah : and i still do n't get a say in that ? so that 's it ? we just go our separate ways , no looking back ? and you can do that ? no looking back ? all right . well , i guess things are n't going to change , so ... thank you for shayne 's present . jeffrey : marah ... marah : shh . cassie : okay , see , now is n't this better than going to the stupid office ? harley : well , you can tell that my client that 's waiting . cassie : oh , is it a big case ? harley : no , not that big . cassie : good . then you can take a little break . i never get to talk to you , you know . you and blake , you guys are always so busy . harley : well , what about you and your best friend olivia ? cassie : wow , you 're jealous . i like it . harley : shut up . cassie : ( laughs ) harley : talk . what ? cassie : oh . i do n't know . harley : okay , i 'm listening . cassie : all right . gosh , i feel so loved by you . harley : that 's a good thing to talk about . how is edmund ? cassie : he 's great . he 's wonderful . harley : well , okay . cassie : okay ? harley : i 'm happy for you . you seem happy . and if you 're happy , i 'm happy for you . cassie : why does everyone keep saying that ? harley : what ? cassie : why would n't i be happy ? i mean , edmund is incredibly wonderful . i mean , i know that 's hard to believe , but ... harley : well , maybe you 're just the perfect woman to bring out his wonderfulness . cassie : maybe i am . i told him i loved him . harley : hopefully that 's because you do . cassie : how could i not ? edmund 's incredible . harley : and wonderful . cassie : you know , he 's gone through a lot for us to be together . he 's worked really hard . i 've made him work very hard , you know ? i need to love him . i do . i 'm not one of those people who can go into a relationship and be half . you know , it 's all or nothing . i just ... that 's what i have to be . so ... harley : i know , i know . and i 'm glad that you 've moved on really , because i did n't think that you would after richard . cassie : richard 's gone , and he 's not coming back . harley : no , but ... cassie : i will never love anyone ... harley : of course not -- the way that you would love him . but there are different kinds of love . there are . cassie : and edmund and i have found a different kind of love . and i do n't care what anyone thinks ; we belong together , so ... bill : come on , come on . it 's shower time . eden : you know what will happen if i go in there . bill : i do n't . but i 'm hoping that maybe ... eden : you will never leave this apartment . bill : well , i do n't see the problem with that . eden : oh , you will not get your work done for danny , and danny will lose the election , and it will be because you took a shower with me . so , if you think about it , i 'm saving the election . bill : well , look at you . putting the election before everything else . maybe you 're the one who should be in politics , huh ? eden : i 'm in too deep . it 's you , not the election , that comes first . you know that , right ? bill : you okay ? eden : yeah , i 'm great . now you go take that shower , okay ? bill : yeah . you do n't want to come in ? eden : go . rick : dad ? ed : oh , geez . do not sneak up on people . rick : well , you 're a hard person to find , dad . ed : hey . rick : what ? ed : i got something for you . rick : dad , i told you i did n't need this . ed : i needed you to have that . that 's my blood alcohol test , and it came back clean , so you can call off the intervention . i got to go . rick : whoa , whoa . wait a minute . ed : you have your proof . rick : michelle and ... ed : you have your proof . what else do you need from me ? rick : michelle and i believed you when you said you were n't drinking , dad . we knew that you were n't drinking . we do n't need a piece of paper . ed : well , you have it anyway . rick : i 'm glad you 're not drinking , dad . but clearly something 's wrong . look , dad , dad , dad . i 'm not here to attack you . i 'm just ... i 'm very concerned about you . i 'm very , very worried about you , and so is michelle . ed : i know you 're just trying to help . and what i need you to do is to stop trying . rick : i ca n't stop caring . look , look , you said to us that you were overtired . i mean , michelle and i , we heard that , even if we heard it a little bit late , okay ? ed : i 'm trying to get a lot more rest these days . rick : that 's not enough , dad . it 's not enough . ed : what ? rick : pick a vacation , dad . you need a vacation . we got hawaii , great britain , ireland . you 're long overdue . ed : rick ... rick : dad , please . take holly . take holly . you know how long it 's been since you 've had yourself a good time ? ed : i know what you 're trying to do . and , you know , you do n't have to send me halfway around the world to do it . you 're trying to get me out of the hospital , the sooner the better . rick : you ca n't keep on going on like this . you ca n't . ed : like what ? rick : like what ? you 're screwing up , dad . you 're screwing up big time . ed : all right , look , what ... what i did to michelle , i will find a way ... rick : what you did to michelle is not going to happen again . we both know that , right ? what happens to michelle , what happens to any member of this family , stays within this family . but what happens here in this hospital is a different story . if i had n't stepped in when you were working on that woman , she would have died . ed : and i thank you for that . rick : you have a choice here , dad , okay ? you take a break , or you throw away everything that you 've worked so hard for , permanently . ed : having me back home is n't all it 's cracked up to be is it , son ? rick : you have to resolve this thing , dad , and get your confidence back . however you do that is up to you . but you 're not going to do it here . ed : do you think that i would stay here if i thought that i were actually a risk to my patients ? rick : well , sometimes when you 're as close as you are to these things , you ca n't see it . ed : but i do see this . i mean , i made a couple mistakes . no one got hurt . and it 's not going to happen again . rick : you ca n't guarantee that , can you , dad ? ed : if i had to , i could walk out of here in two seconds , yes . i have a few things on my mind . who the hell does n't ? but not enough to justify some kind of leave that would , i mean , let all these people around here , give them an excuse to doubt me . rick : one fatality . one fatality in your condition and you 're through as a doctor . you 're through . ed : well , the answer is no . rick : do n't make me do this the hard way , dad . do n't . ed : you 'd go to the board ? rick : if i have to . hey , dad , you 're the one who taught me everything about medicine . patients come first , right ? it does n't have to be this way . it does n't . ed : no , it does n't . see , i ... rick : what ? what were you going to say ? ed : just be careful , rick . i do n't forgive easily . rick : you know what 's funny , dad ? you do n't sound anything like the man who taught me everything . ed : you do n't sound much like my son , either . harley : well , this has been great , really . but i do got to get ... cassie : i know . i 'm sorry i 've gone on and on and on . harley : no , no , no , you did n't , really . no , really . you 're my friend . i love you . and , of course , you know , i will listen if you need to talk . you would listen if i needed to talk . cassie : i would . and do you ? i mean , is everything okay ? harley : everything is just fine . it really is . work 's good . the kids are good . gus is good . life could not be better . cassie : i guess we both have everything we could ever want . bill : okay , well , do n't wait up . i got to take care of some campaign business . then i 've got to do a little something with ... over at lewis . so , unfortunately , nighttime is the only time i have to catch up . eden : oh , and i thought that time was just for me . bill : oh . i 'll make it up to you . i will . eden : you do n't have to make up for anything . but if you insist , you wake me . bill : all right . okay . eden : and the award for girlfriend of the year ... did you forget ... tony : well ? well ? eden , come on . come on . eden : you know , bill could have seen you . tony : i just did . listen , did you get it ? come on . eden : yeah . and i have n't felt this low in a long time . so thanks , tony . tony : you think i want this ? do you ? eden : yeah , i think that if bill does n't turn out clean , you 'll be just fine . tony : well , you know what ? that 's where you 're wrong , eden . bill is tied to danny . if he goes down , so does danny . if bill comes out clean , maybe this whole thing amounts to absolutely nothing , all right ? or maybe it 's our mystery man 's idea of some damn prank , but we need to find out . you did exactly ... exactly what had to be done , eden . look at me . that 's what i like about you . in my book , that 's the difference between you and marah . you do n't go around drawing imaginary lines between right and wrong . you did what you had to do . eden : yeah , and marah knows the difference between right and wrong and i do n't . and thanks for the compliment . jeffrey : hi , sandy . how are you doing ? i hear shayne 's doing a lot better . sandy : yeah , he 's great . your interest in my family is really , really touching . jeffrey : you do n't seem too happy about that . sandy : yeah , i think you care a little too much . jeffrey : how 's that ? sandy : well , you 're going all out to get to know my family . showing up at the family dinners , the hospital , playing the good samaritan . while all the while , you 're really just waiting to make your move . jeffrey : my move ? sandy : yeah , your move . taking advantage of a girl half your age , sleeping with her when she 's already having a bad time . jeffrey : and how would you know about that ? sandy : because i do . not from marah , though . she 's covering for you . mr. o'neill , do n't mess with my family . jeffrey : your family ? sandy : yeah . jeffrey : you 're a big family man now , is that right ? sandy : yeah ! they need me to protect them from creeps like you . jeffrey : okay . sandy : i 'll simplify it for you ... jeffrey : please . sandy : ... jeffrey . jeffrey : please do . sandy : you hurt marah , you answer to me . jeffrey : so is that it ? what , is that all you got , kid ? sandy : yeah . i can back it up . jeffrey : yeah . i understand this is a confusing time for , what with your new family and all the rest that 's going on , and you probably need to lash out at something or someone . but i can assure you , you 've chosen the wrong guy . sandy : no , no , no . i 've got the right guy . jeffrey : okay , you want to play with the big boys ? sandy : yes . jeffrey : well , maybe i should give you some advice first , okay ? sandy : you know what you can do with your advice ? jeffrey : now , the advice is this . listen up . come here . the advice is you should go easy on the threats , okay ? because they do n't really accomplish much of anything , okay , except for showing your opponent how vulnerable you are . you 're going to do something ? you should just do it , kid ; you know that ? sandy : okay . jeffrey : okay ? sandy : mm - hmm . jeffrey : now , what did you accomplish just now , hmm ? besides giving me a little bit of information ? you love marah . it 's killing you because you ca n't have her . and neither can i . shayne : these are great . why did n't he stick around so i could say thanks to him ? marah : you know , jeffrey was probably busy . what ... what happened to sandy ? reva : he had something to do . he did n't say what . marina : actually , i 've got to get out of here , too . i have a class . marah : yeah , i am going to get going , too . and maybe tomorrow or later we can go for a little stroll in the park . shayne : can i have a little breathing room , please ? i 'm not superman . marina : oh , you are to me . marah : bye , squirt . marina : bye . shayne : bye . reva : well , it looks like it 's just you and me , kid . so what do you want to do ? let me kick your butt in one of those video games ? board game ? your choice . maybe you want to try a little exercise ? shayne : it 's nice , really nice of you , but i 'm a little tired , so i 'd rather just go to bed . reva : have i told you recently how incredibly proud i 've been of you since the accident ? every day , watching you since you woke up , facing the world uphill ; every day making your father and me so incredibly proud of you . i 've never seen anyone face adversity with such determination and maturity . it made me feel in awe . shayne : mom , what 's this about ? reva : i 've been watching you today , and something 's changed . and there 's just one word that comes to mind : quitter . tony : it 's not what i ... eden , you 're twisting my words , okay ? eden : i do n't think so . your meaning was pretty clear . when there 's a dirty job to do that requires no scruples and even less loyalty , i 'm you 're go - to girl , as opposed to marah . tony : i thought it was a compliment , eden . you 're a realist and i ... eden : oh ! tony : okay , okay . eden : just stay away . tony : okay , all right . eden : i just slept with bill here . he is who i 'm with , okay ? got it ? tony : fine . i got it . i 'm making an observation . that 's all , all right ? i do n't want to cause you any trouble . eden , i do n't . eden : yeah , like the trouble i caused you with marah ? you would have been riding off into the sunset with marah if it was n't for me sleeping with you . tony : you 're wrong . that 's where you 're wrong , eden . okay , marah and i broke up for many other reasons . none of them had to do with ... we ... we broke up because i had to . now can we please get back to work ? because with any luck , we 'll prove that bill is clean and that our mystery man is just playing games . so can we go back to work , please ? eden : fine . but there is another possibility . tony : okay , yeah , what 's that ? eden : just because bill is clean does n't mean danny is . tony : no , danny 's clean . i 'd stake my life on it . salerno : danny . danny : vinnie salerno . cassie : next on guiding light ... billy : i figure i 've failed you just about the worst way a brother can fail a brother . reva : you can reboot your whole life . how many people would love to have the chance to do that ? | eden makes a copy of bill 's key to the lewis office so she and tony can check out the claims of the mysterious person who insists bill is dirty . tony , questions danny about bill 's qualities and danny misinterprets , thinking tony wants to take bill 's place on the campaign and he is disappointed when tony sets him straight . later , tony expresses confidence that danny is clean as a whistle , danny receives a visitor to his office : vinnie salerno . reva 's at the museum when shayne is pushed by marina to work harder now that he can actually walk , and shayne surprisingly hesitates , not wanting to push too hard , too soon . sandy arrives and asks marah about her relationship with jeffrey , and she denies that there is one . jeffrey arrives on the heels of that and sandy observes their closeness figuring out marah was lying . sandy follows jeffrey when he leaves and confronts him outside company , putting jeffrey on notice not to hurt marah . jeffrey surprises sandy by telling him he cares for her but can never have her much like sandy . back at the museum , reva 's seen enough of shayne 's odd behavior during the day to call him on it by day 's end : is he a quitter ? rick tells michelle he 's going to try to convince ed to step back from his hospital duties , at least until whatever it is that 's obviously eating at him passes . michelle ca n't reveal what she knows but reluctantly endorses rick 's plan . it backfires when ed reacts in anger , and demands to know if rick intends to go over his head . rick says he just might . it ends contentiously between the two men , neither comfortable with how fast things are spinning out of control . | <s>[INST] rick : oh , that 's all right . i got it , i got it . michelle : okay . since when do n't you accept help from your little sister ? you got today 's duty roster there . who are you looking for ? are you ... you 're looking for dad . rick : yeah , but ... michelle , i was hoping that you would n't be here today . michelle : rick , i can handle myself with dad , okay ? rick : i 'm ... i 'm going to talk to dad today , michelle , and this is the last place that we need to be . michelle : what are you going to do ? rick : i 'm asking dad to leave the hospital . ed : now you shut your mouth ! michelle : no , i wo n't , because i want to know the truth , and i want to hear you say it ! ed : i did n't do anything . michelle : oh , dad , say it ... ed : i did nothing ! michelle : tell me ... ed : you are not talking about me . this is not me ! _ michelle : please , tell me , dad ! _ ed : i did nothing ! rick : she told me that you slapped her in the face and that she 's worried about you . ed : so just leave it be . rick : are you drinking ? frank : you know , i came by to get a cup of coffee , but it looks like you could really use one . marina : you should have seen him . i mean , he was practically sprinting . marah : he walked across the room , mom . it was amazing . i mean , you should let shayne tell you himself . marina : or better yet he can show you . shayne : it was just a few steps . really , it was no big deal . marina : yes , it was . come on , you got to show your mom , shayne . reva : your cheerleading team here has been telling me all about your morning . shayne : all lies . reva : oh , i do n't think so . and you know what ? seeing as i missed it the first time you walked , i intend to be in a front - row seat for it this time . marina : yeah , you heard the woman . come on , you got to show her . shayne : no , i 'm tired . i ... really , this is ... i do n't want to overdo it this time . marina : get your cute butt out of that chair and take a few steps for your mom . shayne : i said i 'm tired , okay ? i do n't have to perform on cue ! marina : shayne ... shayne : i just ... i just mean there 's only so much i can do in one day , you know ? ( sighs ) and seriously , anyway , it 's like watching paint dry , you know ? i 'm a million times faster on my wheels . marina : yeah , right now . i mean , pretty soon , though , you 're going to be running circles around that wheelchair , you know ? and you 're going to run around the bases before long . shayne : right . you know what ? i forgot something in my room . marina : he 's okay . i just ... i pushed him a little bit hard this morning . reva : all in good time . just baby steps . marina : yeah . reva : baby steps . ( knock on door ) marah : i 'll get it . oh , hi . shayne will be happy to see you . he 's a little overwhelmed by female energy right now . he 's in his room . sandy : well , shayne is n't the only family member i came to check up on . marah : as you can tell , i am perfectly fine . sandy : we have n't spoken since new year 's eve . marah : sorry . sandy : i 'm starting to think you 're avoiding me . marah : no , i 've just ... i 've been busy , really . sandy : yeah , real busy . i saw you , marah , coming out of jeffrey o'neill 's room . you , uh , spent the night with him , did n't you ? eden : what ? tony : what do you mean , what ? did you do it ? you did n't . eden : no . i have n't had a chance to make the keys yet . just give me a break , tony , all right ? tony : okay , eden , you know what ? get on it , please . make the copies ; you get them to me and your job is done . you want me to help bill , right ? eden : i do n't think bill needs your help . tony : all right , well , you know what ? there 's only one way for us to find out for sure . eden : i am going to prove to you that bill 's clean . tony : eden , bill is not the only one on the line here now . if you do n't do this , i 'm telling you right now , i will . you understand ? eden : you know , maybe it is time for us to cut our losses and fill bill and danny in . tony : well , you know what ? for all we know that 's exactly what our mystery guy wants . we handle this ourselves . eden : and you do n't know that . we might be playing right into his hands . tony : oh , you know what ? just ... you call me when you have it . eden : yeah , but i still do n't ... ( phone clicks ) tony : hey . danny : hey , you . i did n't know you were stopping by . tony : i have to make an appointment now ? danny : ( laughs ) yeah , right . tony : so how 's the campaign going ? you know , after all those years of perfecting your scowl , having to give it all up for smiling , handshaking ... danny : no , i 'm keeping the scowl in reserve just for you . it 's ... campaign 's going great . i mean , i 'm booked solid . i 'm getting tired of the sound of my own voice . tony : that 's good . campaign manager -- how 's he working out ? danny : bill ? he 's ... great . he 's doing a great job . we 're working really well together . why ? tony : you trust him , danny ? eden : ( gasps ) how long have you been standing there ? bill : long enough . long enough to know that i need you right here , right now . frank : you okay ? you look beat . ed : no , it 's just , you know , between the clinic and the hospital , it 's ... frank : i can imagine . marina 's told me that you 've been really great with shayne . it 's really tough , seeing a young kid go through something like that . ed : yeah . frank : how 's michelle doing ? i have n't seen her in ages . i mean , i really miss her . ed : she 's busy , like just about everybody else . frank : yeah , i can imagine , with danny 's campaign . that 's ... that 's pretty exciting . it 's got to be kind of weird for you , though . i mean , danny versus ross ? i mean , that 's ... a race like that could split a whole town up . look , ed , i know danny 's come a long way , but i really wish he was n't doing this , because in the long run , i do n't think it 'd be good for springfield . and anyway , i guess i should n't be saying that to his father - in- law . i 'm sorry . ed : oh , it 's ... i thought the same thing myself a couple of times . you know , i will take another cup of coffee , but if you do n't mind , could i have it to go ? frank : yeah , you got it , buddy . michelle : rick , you 're really going to ask dad to take a leave from the hospital ? rick : i mean , hopefully , i can help him come to the right decision , michelle . i mean , i 'm not suggesting anything permanent . just for now , this is the best thing for everybody . michelle : because of what happened between dad and me ? rick : michelle , he 's completely out of control . i mean , not only did he mess up shayne 's meds , but there was a drowning victim that got ... wheeled into the er and ... and he completely and totally froze . michelle : a drowning victim ? rick : this woman was in terrible shape . loc , hypertensive . but you know dad . i mean , michelle , he 's handled a million cases like this in the past without blinking . but this time , he just ... it was ... he just stood there and he was like ... michelle : it was like he saw a ghost . rick : ... staring right through this person . i have seen him go through so many things in the past , michelle , but i have never seen him like this , ever . michelle : i know , i know . he needs help . rick : yeah , he needs help . and we 're going to do everything we can help him , michelle . but if he wants to screw up his life , there 's not a damn thing we can do to stop him . but i 'll be damned if i 'm going to stand here and watch him hurt somebody . it 's not going to happen . i 'm asking him to leave the hospital . michelle : okay , okay . do what you have to do . rick : you 're not going to fight me on this ? boy , you 're usually the first person to come to his defense . i 'm just surprised , that 's all . michelle : yeah , me , too , about a lot of things . marah : are you stalking me now , sandy ? sandy : get over yourself , marah . i was picking up my equipment the morning after the new year 's eve party . the storage room 's on jeffrey 's floor , and lucky me , i caught your exit . do n't tell me you 're working on another contract . it was a little too early for that . marah : this is so ridiculous . how can you even ask me about this ? sandy : family looks out for one another . > from where i 'm sitting , you 're in trouble . marah : sandy ... sandy : this guy 's a creep . i 'm not going to stand by and watch him ... marah : ... you are my brother , okay , not my keeper . i can take care of myself . sandy : that 's not what it looked like . marah : well , what it looked like and what it was are two completely different things , neither of which are your business . sandy : i 'm making it my business . look , whatever happened , marah , you can tell me . i mean , did he ... get you drunk ? force himself on you ? marah : okay , you know , you want details ? i 'll give you details . i 'll tell you every last thing that happened . sandy : i do n't need you to draw me a picture . i think i can get it . marah : oh , i do n't think so . sandy , you see , i went over there with one thing on my mind . i wanted him . and he was unbelievable . sandy : that 's enough for me ... marah : no , you asked ; now you have to listen . he was sweet and caring and gentle . sandy : i 'm out of here . marah : he was a perfect gentleman . he let me down easy and he let me fall asleep in his arms . sandy : so , you and he , you guys did n't ... marah : no , no , we did n't . but it was still one of the best nights of my life . sandy : how 's that ? marah : because he was honest and respectful , which is more than i can say for some people . sandy : okay , maybe i deserved that one , but that does n't mean that jeffrey o'neill 's the guy for you . marah : you know what ? sandy : he 's a ... marah : sandy ? do n't ruin my memories of that night , okay ? sandy : marah ... marah : leave it alone . it 's all i 've got . now , if you want to see shayne , he 's in his room along with mom . danny : why would n't i trust bill ? tony : well , i mean for starters , he 's not blood . danny : yeah . true . okay , i trust him about as much i trust anyone who is n't family . but last time i checked , family was n't available . why ? has it changed ? are you looking to replace him ? tony : no , danny , the only thing i know about politics is that i do n't belong . danny : you could learn . i did . tony : i do n't ... no offense . listen , i 'm not no good at making posters , man . danny : well , a campaign manager does a lot more than make posters . tony : that 's exactly why i had to ask the question . danny : okay . bill 's great . he 's doing a terrific job . in fact , when i win this election ... when i win this election , i 'm going to owe a large part of that to him . but if truth be told , if it really were up to me , i 'd much rather you were watching my back , yeah . tony : oh , come on , that 's one thing you do know . you know i 've always got your back , all right ? danny : right . a lot of things are different now . i do miss having you around . i do . there are things that i could only tell you , that only you could understand . do n't you have a ranch be taking care of , cowboy ? tony : wait a second . hold on . you 're kicking me out ? danny : or whatever it is you do ? tony : you 're kicking me out ? something i said ? is that it ? danny : no . i got a meeting . that 's all . tony : all right . suit yourself . that 's fine . but you know what ? listen , danny , maybe this is best , you know ? maybe i can do more for you on the outside than i can on the inside . now , listen , just because i 'm not by your side does n't mean i do n't watch your back . night and day . okay ? bill : you know the one thing sexier than seeing you in one of my shirts is seeing you out of it . eden : oh , and think about all the money i 've wasted on lingerie . did n't you say something about going to work ? bill : yeah , well , you know what they say : all work and no play ... eden : oh . ( laughter ) eden : really ? cassie : so what is it , a cooper family requirement that each one of you hold down at least two jobs ? ( laughs ) harley : ha , ha , ha . good morning to you , too . cassie : good morning . harley : what ? cassie : what do you mean , what ? it 's morning . a cup of coffee . harley : oh , i 'm sorry . did they run out in that fancy hotel that you own ? cassie : wow , you 're cranky . i like your dad 's coffee better than mine . is that a crime ? harley : no . and it 's totally fine . you 're going to have to help yourself , because lynn 's in the back and i got to go . cassie : no , you ca n't go . harley : no , i have to , remember ? cooper family -- i have to get to that second job . cassie : you are going nowhere , my friend . shayne : whatever it is you 're looking for , you 're not going to find anything . what ... i ca n't even find anything in this room myself . help me ... marina : score . do not doubt the organizational skills of marina cooper . marah : what is it ? marina : inspiration . i know my pep talks are maybe getting a little tired , so i thought you could do some good from hearing it from someone objective , and the sports page does not lie . okay . `` there 's no doubt that we will be hearing great things from this young man shayne lewis , very great things indeed . he is going to surprise us all . `` you see ? there it is , right there in black and white , after your first game last summer . shayne : yeah , and it was a long time ago . it was before my accident . marah : not that long ago . marina : yeah , i mean you have been through a lot , but you 're still the same person now that you were then , you know ? and it 's only a matter of time . jeffrey : hello ? anybody here ? shayne ? marah : oh , yeah ... i 'll go see who that is . hi . jeffrey : hi . i was looking ... looking for shayne . marah : yeah , i got that . he 's ... he 's in his room with marina and my mother and sandy . jeffrey : oh . well , good news travels fast . i heard he 's made some amazing progress . marah : what 's that ? jeffrey : oh , well , it 's something for him ... something for shayne . marah : wow , that 's really sweet of you . jeffrey : well , it 's just , you know , a couple of out - of - print baseball books , kind of a congratulations - for - getting - better type of gift , type of thing . but maybe it 's ... maybe it 's too soon . marah : for what ? jeffrey : for baseball . marah : no . you know , i do n't think so . we 've been talking about it and you know , it 's not good to give up on something you care about . you want to bring it to him ? you 're not coming ? jeffrey : no . why do n't ... why do n't you give it to him , okay ? i 've got to get going . marah : you just got here . you do n't want to give the present to shayne ? jeffrey : marah , marah , marah . i did n't know you were going to be here , okay ? your car 's not out front , so ... marah : well , it 's in the shop . so you 're just ... you 're going to leave ? it 's really that difficult for you to be around me ? jeffrey : sometimes , yeah . i really did n't come over here to try to make things even more awkward between us . i just came by to give shayne these books , so ... marah : ah , and you 've done that . jeffrey : yes , i have . so ... i got to get going . tell shayne i 'm happy for him . marah : i miss you . jeffrey : i miss you , too . but that 's the way it 's got to be . marah : and why is that , again ? i ca n't seem to remember . jeffrey : well , i have to remember for both of us , then . we 'll always have that night . but that 's all we can have . marah : and i still do n't get a say in that ? so that 's it ? we just go our separate ways , no looking back ? and you can do that ? no looking back ? all right . well , i guess things are n't going to change , so ... thank you for shayne 's present . jeffrey : marah ... marah : shh . cassie : okay , see , now is n't this better than going to the stupid office ? harley : well , you can tell that my client that 's waiting . cassie : oh , is it a big case ? harley : no , not that big . cassie : good . then you can take a little break . i never get to talk to you , you know . you and blake , you guys are always so busy . harley : well , what about you and your best friend olivia ? cassie : wow , you 're jealous . i like it . harley : shut up . cassie : ( laughs ) harley : talk . what ? cassie : oh . i do n't know . harley : okay , i 'm listening . cassie : all right . gosh , i feel so loved by you . harley : that 's a good thing to talk about . how is edmund ? cassie : he 's great . he 's wonderful . harley : well , okay . cassie : okay ? harley : i 'm happy for you . you seem happy . and if you 're happy , i 'm happy for you . cassie : why does everyone keep saying that ? harley : what ? cassie : why would n't i be happy ? i mean , edmund is incredibly wonderful . i mean , i know that 's hard to believe , but ... harley : well , maybe you 're just the perfect woman to bring out his wonderfulness . cassie : maybe i am . i told him i loved him . harley : hopefully that 's because you do . cassie : how could i not ? edmund 's incredible . harley : and wonderful . cassie : you know , he 's gone through a lot for us to be together . he 's worked really hard . i 've made him work very hard , you know ? i need to love him . i do . i 'm not one of those people who can go into a relationship and be half . you know , it 's all or nothing . i just ... that 's what i have to be . so ... harley : i know , i know . and i 'm glad that you 've moved on really , because i did n't think that you would after richard . cassie : richard 's gone , and he 's not coming back . harley : no , but ... cassie : i will never love anyone ... harley : of course not -- the way that you would love him . but there are different kinds of love . there are . cassie : and edmund and i have found a different kind of love . and i do n't care what anyone thinks ; we belong together , so ... bill : come on , come on . it 's shower time . eden : you know what will happen if i go in there . bill : i do n't . but i 'm hoping that maybe ... eden : you will never leave this apartment . bill : well , i do n't see the problem with that . eden : oh , you will not get your work done for danny , and danny will lose the election , and it will be because you took a shower with me . so , if you think about it , i 'm saving the election . bill : well , look at you . putting the election before everything else . maybe you 're the one who should be in politics , huh ? eden : i 'm in too deep . it 's you , not the election , that comes first . you know that , right ? bill : you okay ? eden : yeah , i 'm great . now you go take that shower , okay ? bill : yeah . you do n't want to come in ? eden : go . rick : dad ? ed : oh , geez . do not sneak up on people . rick : well , you 're a hard person to find , dad . ed : hey . rick : what ? ed : i got something for you . rick : dad , i told you i did n't need this . ed : i needed you to have that . that 's my blood alcohol test , and it came back clean , so you can call off the intervention . i got to go . rick : whoa , whoa . wait a minute . ed : you have your proof . rick : michelle and ... ed : you have your proof . what else do you need from me ? rick : michelle and i believed you when you said you were n't drinking , dad . we knew that you were n't drinking . we do n't need a piece of paper . ed : well , you have it anyway . rick : i 'm glad you 're not drinking , dad . but clearly something 's wrong . look , dad , dad , dad . i 'm not here to attack you . i 'm just ... i 'm very concerned about you . i 'm very , very worried about you , and so is michelle . ed : i know you 're just trying to help . and what i need you to do is to stop trying . rick : i ca n't stop caring . look , look , you said to us that you were overtired . i mean , michelle and i , we heard that , even if we heard it a little bit late , okay ? ed : i 'm trying to get a lot more rest these days . rick : that 's not enough , dad . it 's not enough . ed : what ? rick : pick a vacation , dad . you need a vacation . we got hawaii , great britain , ireland . you 're long overdue . ed : rick ... rick : dad , please . take holly . take holly . you know how long it 's been since you 've had yourself a good time ? ed : i know what you 're trying to do . and , you know , you do n't have to send me halfway around the world to do it . you 're trying to get me out of the hospital , the sooner the better . rick : you ca n't keep on going on like this . you ca n't . ed : like what ? rick : like what ? you 're screwing up , dad . you 're screwing up big time . ed : all right , look , what ... what i did to michelle , i will find a way ... rick : what you did to michelle is not going to happen again . we both know that , right ? what happens to michelle , what happens to any member of this family , stays within this family . but what happens here in this hospital is a different story . if i had n't stepped in when you were working on that woman , she would have died . ed : and i thank you for that . rick : you have a choice here , dad , okay ? you take a break , or you throw away everything that you 've worked so hard for , permanently . ed : having me back home is n't all it 's cracked up to be is it , son ? rick : you have to resolve this thing , dad , and get your confidence back . however you do that is up to you . but you 're not going to do it here . ed : do you think that i would stay here if i thought that i were actually a risk to my patients ? rick : well , sometimes when you 're as close as you are to these things , you ca n't see it . ed : but i do see this . i mean , i made a couple mistakes . no one got hurt . and it 's not going to happen again . rick : you ca n't guarantee that , can you , dad ? ed : if i had to , i could walk out of here in two seconds , yes . i have a few things on my mind . who the hell does n't ? but not enough to justify some kind of leave that would , i mean , let all these people around here , give them an excuse to doubt me . rick : one fatality . one fatality in your condition and you 're through as a doctor . you 're through . ed : well , the answer is no . rick : do n't make me do this the hard way , dad . do n't . ed : you 'd go to the board ? rick : if i have to . hey , dad , you 're the one who taught me everything about medicine . patients come first , right ? it does n't have to be this way . it does n't . ed : no , it does n't . see , i ... rick : what ? what were you going to say ? ed : just be careful , rick . i do n't forgive easily . rick : you know what 's funny , dad ? you do n't sound anything like the man who taught me everything . ed : you do n't sound much like my son , either . harley : well , this has been great , really . but i do got to get ... cassie : i know . i 'm sorry i 've gone on and on and on . harley : no , no , no , you did n't , really . no , really . you 're my friend . i love you . and , of course , you know , i will listen if you need to talk . you would listen if i needed to talk . cassie : i would . and do you ? i mean , is everything okay ? harley : everything is just fine . it really is . work 's good . the kids are good . gus is good . life could not be better . cassie : i guess we both have everything we could ever want . bill : okay , well , do n't wait up . i got to take care of some campaign business . then i 've got to do a little something with ... over at lewis . so , unfortunately , nighttime is the only time i have to catch up . eden : oh , and i thought that time was just for me . bill : oh . i 'll make it up to you . i will . eden : you do n't have to make up for anything . but if you insist , you wake me . bill : all right . okay . eden : and the award for girlfriend of the year ... did you forget ... tony : well ? well ? eden , come on . come on . eden : you know , bill could have seen you . tony : i just did . listen , did you get it ? come on . eden : yeah . and i have n't felt this low in a long time . so thanks , tony . tony : you think i want this ? do you ? eden : yeah , i think that if bill does n't turn out clean , you 'll be just fine . tony : well , you know what ? that 's where you 're wrong , eden . bill is tied to danny . if he goes down , so does danny . if bill comes out clean , maybe this whole thing amounts to absolutely nothing , all right ? or maybe it 's our mystery man 's idea of some damn prank , but we need to find out . you did exactly ... exactly what had to be done , eden . look at me . that 's what i like about you . in my book , that 's the difference between you and marah . you do n't go around drawing imaginary lines between right and wrong . you did what you had to do . eden : yeah , and marah knows the difference between right and wrong and i do n't . and thanks for the compliment . jeffrey : hi , sandy . how are you doing ? i hear shayne 's doing a lot better . sandy : yeah , he 's great . your interest in my family is really , really touching . jeffrey : you do n't seem too happy about that . sandy : yeah , i think you care a little too much . jeffrey : how 's that ? sandy : well , you 're going all out to get to know my family . showing up at the family dinners , the hospital , playing the good samaritan . while all the while , you 're really just waiting to make your move . jeffrey : my move ? sandy : yeah , your move . taking advantage of a girl half your age , sleeping with her when she 's already having a bad time . jeffrey : and how would you know about that ? sandy : because i do . not from marah , though . she 's covering for you . mr. o'neill , do n't mess with my family . jeffrey : your family ? sandy : yeah . jeffrey : you 're a big family man now , is that right ? sandy : yeah ! they need me to protect them from creeps like you . jeffrey : okay . sandy : i 'll simplify it for you ... jeffrey : please . sandy : ... jeffrey . jeffrey : please do . sandy : you hurt marah , you answer to me . jeffrey : so is that it ? what , is that all you got , kid ? sandy : yeah . i can back it up . jeffrey : yeah . i understand this is a confusing time for , what with your new family and all the rest that 's going on , and you probably need to lash out at something or someone . but i can assure you , you 've chosen the wrong guy . sandy : no , no , no . i 've got the right guy . jeffrey : okay , you want to play with the big boys ? sandy : yes . jeffrey : well , maybe i should give you some advice first , okay ? sandy : you know what you can do with your advice ? jeffrey : now , the advice is this . listen up . come here . the advice is you should go easy on the threats , okay ? because they do n't really accomplish much of anything , okay , except for showing your opponent how vulnerable you are . you 're going to do something ? you should just do it , kid ; you know that ? sandy : okay . jeffrey : okay ? sandy : mm - hmm . jeffrey : now , what did you accomplish just now , hmm ? besides giving me a little bit of information ? you love marah . it 's killing you because you ca n't have her . and neither can i . shayne : these are great . why did n't he stick around so i could say thanks to him ? marah : you know , jeffrey was probably busy . what ... what happened to sandy ? reva : he had something to do . he did n't say what . marina : actually , i 've got to get out of here , too . i have a class . marah : yeah , i am going to get going , too . and maybe tomorrow or later we can go for a little stroll in the park . shayne : can i have a little breathing room , please ? i 'm not superman . marina : oh , you are to me . marah : bye , squirt . marina : bye . shayne : bye . reva : well , it looks like it 's just you and me , kid . so what do you want to do ? let me kick your butt in one of those video games ? board game ? your choice . maybe you want to try a little exercise ? shayne : it 's nice , really nice of you , but i 'm a little tired , so i 'd rather just go to bed . reva : have i told you recently how incredibly proud i 've been of you since the accident ? every day , watching you since you woke up , facing the world uphill ; every day making your father and me so incredibly proud of you . i 've never seen anyone face adversity with such determination and maturity . it made me feel in awe . shayne : mom , what 's this about ? reva : i 've been watching you today , and something 's changed . and there 's just one word that comes to mind : quitter . tony : it 's not what i ... eden , you 're twisting my words , okay ? eden : i do n't think so . your meaning was pretty clear . when there 's a dirty job to do that requires no scruples and even less loyalty , i 'm you 're go - to girl , as opposed to marah . tony : i thought it was a compliment , eden . you 're a realist and i ... eden : oh ! tony : okay , okay . eden : just stay away . tony : okay , all right . eden : i just slept with bill here . he is who i 'm with , okay ? got it ? tony : fine . i got it . i 'm making an observation . that 's all , all right ? i do n't want to cause you any trouble . eden , i do n't . eden : yeah , like the trouble i caused you with marah ? you would have been riding off into the sunset with marah if it was n't for me sleeping with you . tony : you 're wrong . that 's where you 're wrong , eden . okay , marah and i broke up for many other reasons . none of them had to do with ... we ... we broke up because i had to . now can we please get back to work ? because with any luck , we 'll prove that bill is clean and that our mystery man is just playing games . so can we go back to work , please ? eden : fine . but there is another possibility . tony : okay , yeah , what 's that ? eden : just because bill is clean does n't mean danny is . tony : no , danny 's clean . i 'd stake my life on it . salerno : danny . danny : vinnie salerno . cassie : next on guiding light ... billy : i figure i 've failed you just about the worst way a brother can fail a brother . reva : you can reboot your whole life . how many people would love to have the chance to do that ?Summarize.[/INST]eden makes a copy of bill 's key to the lewis office so she and tony can check out the claims of the mysterious person who insists bill is dirty . tony , questions danny about bill 's qualities and danny misinterprets , thinking tony wants to take bill 's place on the campaign and he is disappointed when tony sets him straight . later , tony expresses confidence that danny is clean as a whistle , danny receives a visitor to his office : vinnie salerno . reva 's at the museum when shayne is pushed by marina to work harder now that he can actually walk , and shayne surprisingly hesitates , not wanting to push too hard , too soon . sandy arrives and asks marah about her relationship with jeffrey , and she denies that there is one . jeffrey arrives on the heels of that and sandy observes their closeness figuring out marah was lying . sandy follows jeffrey when he leaves and confronts him outside company , putting jeffrey on notice not to hurt marah . jeffrey surprises sandy by telling him he cares for her but can never have her much like sandy . back at the museum , reva 's seen enough of shayne 's odd behavior during the day to call him on it by day 's end : is he a quitter ? rick tells michelle he 's going to try to convince ed to step back from his hospital duties , at least until whatever it is that 's obviously eating at him passes . michelle ca n't reveal what she knows but reluctantly endorses rick 's plan . it backfires when ed reacts in anger , and demands to know if rick intends to go over his head . rick says he just might . it ends contentiously between the two men , neither comfortable with how fast things are spinning out of control .</s> | 12,368 |

[ sighs ] anyway , um , i apologize for overstepping . it was unprofessional . it wo n't happen again . [ cell phone vibrates ] nick : excuse me . dr. anderson : sure . nick : it 's sharon . i should take this . dr. anderson : okay . nick : hey , uh , what 's up ? sharon : hey , it 's me . can you come over and talk right now ? it 's about faith . adam : this is our only chance to extricate ourselves from the santoris and their shady business dealings . chelsea : like nothing victor does is shady ? adam : okay , illegal business dealings then , okay ? you say what you want about victor , but -- chelsea : i will . adam : but newman is a legitimate corporation , sweetheart . chelsea : right , and the santoris are threatening to jeopardize that , so you just need them out . adam : yeah , i do . and i 'm this close . right here . i 've already laid all the groundwork with luca . now with my father out of town -- chelsea : which you orchestrated . adam : it 's the perfect window . chelsea : okay . okay . you 're right . maybe this is a completely smart con . [ sighs ] adam : so what 's the problem ? chelsea : i do n't know . i have a really bad feeling about it , the same bad feeling i had when victor sent you on that business trip . do you remember how that turned out , adam , when you got kidnapped ? adam : yeah , no , it 's not ringing a bell , sweetheart . chelsea : stop . this is n't funny . please . i - i think you should call it off . adam : i ca n't . chelsea : why ca n't you ? adam : because we may not have this opportunity again , all right ? besides , this is completely different . i 'm not in any danger at all . chelsea : um , okay . you 're not being serious right now , are you ? i mean , the santoris did n't get to where they are by being pushovers . you know that , right ? adam : yeah , i understand that , but luca 's not his father . he 's ambitious , yeah , but he 's also impatient . chelsea : well , maybe he 's smarter than you 're giving him credit for . maybe he 's conning you the way you think you 're conning him . adam : [ chuckles ] um , no . no way . no . chelsea : adam . adam : i 'm serious . chelsea : you do n't know that . adam : i do know that . i 've been around him , okay ? i can see it in his eyes , the hunger , the thirst that he has to best his father . you know what it 's like ? it 's like looking at myself in the mirror when i was younger . chelsea : when you were younger . adam : hold on a second . what 's that supposed to mean ? chelsea : pfft . i 'm just wondering if your desire to prove yourself to your father is blinding you still . adam : okay , well , i do n't know , you know , what else to say to you except that , sweetheart , you 're gon na have to trust me , okay ? chelsea : when are you gon na start trusting me ? adam : i do trust you , babe . i trust your instincts . you know that . chelsea : yet you refuse to follow them ever . adam : look ... everything 's gon na be okay , all right ? all right ? this will be over soon . just trust me . chelsea : [ sighs ] luca : i know what i 'm doing . marisa : and so do the newmans . luca , you ca n't trust them . luca : not `` them . `` adam . marisa : he went along so easily with this plan of attack . it was too simple . luca : that 's because we 're the same . ca n't you see that ? both suffocated by controlling fathers who will never step aside unless we make them . this is our chance , marisa , to get out from under their thumbs , to -- to make names for ourselves on our own merit . marisa : i understand . luca : do you ? marisa : yes . and i also understand where this all could lead . i do n't want anything ... [ sighs ] luca : you do n't want anything to happen to me . marisa : yes . yes , that 's -- that 's exactly it . i do n't want anything bad to happen . billy : you were there . in my hospital room . right ? i 'm sorry . it 's a little -- it 's a little foggy still , but abby mentioned that you came by to visit . noah : oh , uh -- billy : after i woke up . noah : yeah , i did . yeah . yeah . i was there . billy : but you did n't come in the room . what 's wrong ? i do n't rate a visit from you ? noah : no , man . no , no . it 's not like that at all . i , uh , i wanted to come and check on you . i , uh , i - i ran into my grandfather outside , and he needed to see me . billy : a directive from grandpa victor , huh ? did he need you to shine his riding boots ? victoria : do you see what i mean about his sense of humor ? billy : back in full force , baby . noah : [ chuckles ] [ cell phone rings ] billy : excuse me for a second . noah : yeah . billy : jack . what 's up ? victoria : what 's the matter with you ? noah : what do you mean ? victoria : sit down . you seem a little tense . noah : [ scoffs ] well , grandpa has that effect on me . [ sighs ] victoria : ah , i see . you 're upset about what happened with marisa . noah : upset ? you think ? not to mention what he did to that -- the internet girl just because he wanted to steal a business deal out from under billy , right ? the man thinks he can do anything he wants . victoria : because usually he can . noah : not this time . victoria : do n't go down that same dark road that billy went down . it never ends up where you think it will . noah : so i 'm just supposed to forget what he did ? victoria : [ sighs ] no , you do n't have to forget . just do n't let it take you over , either . noah : easy for you to say . victoria : actually , it 's not . you do n't know how many times i 've railed at the all - powerful victor newman . but i 've learned from the past , and thankfully , so has billy . [ sighs ] i mean , my god , his need to get back at my father almost got him killed . noah : that 's not what almost killed billy . [ knock on door ] chelsea : all right ! what ? ! marisa : i need to speak to adam . chelsea : he 's not home . marisa : [ sighs ] he already left ? chelsea : yeah . did n't luca ? marisa : yeah , i just thought maybe adam would be running late . chelsea : what 's wrong ? marisa : you tell me . chelsea : w - what is that supposed to mean ? marisa : this plan they 're cooking up . adam and luca bringing down their fathers -- is it legitimate ? chelsea : why would n't it be ? marisa : i do n't know . maybe 'cause adam 's a known liar and a fake . chelsea : okay , slow down . do not be coming into my home badmouthing my husband . marisa : i apologize . i should not have said that about adam . i 'm just scared . okay , i have this pit in my stomach that this is all a setup . if luca 's about to be double - crossed , i need to know . chelsea : why ? i mean , would it really be that horrible ? with luca out of the picture , you can finally be free . marisa : luca 's my husband . chelsea : yes . i mean , but let 's be honest . everybody knows the real person you 're in love with is noah . noah : victoria , it was n't billy 's hate for grandpa that got him into trouble . [ sighs ] i do n't know . it was his need to salvage his family 's company . you know , that 's why he wanted in on that deal so bad . it 's why he went back to gambling -- to get the up - front money . victoria : okay . technically , that 's true . noah : and who put him in that position in the first place , hmm ? grandpa . the man almost brought the abbotts to the brink of collapse . victoria : it 's a lot more complicated than that . noah : i do n't think so . victoria : look , you ca n't pin this all on grandpa . billy was battling some of his own demons . noah : all of them bearing the name victor newman . victoria : that 's not true . noah : look , however we got here , i - i feel awful that i did n't get to spend more time with billy in the hospital . and in the name of what ? so i can sit at the knee of an egomaniac who explains away everything -- everything -- in the name of family ? victoria : i feel like we 're back to marisa again and how dad -- noah : kidnapped . abducted . shanghaied . any of those work . victoria : i am not condoning what he did . he was scared . noah : victor newman is n't afraid of anything . victoria : except when it comes to his children and his grandchildren . look , despite that they 've been through and maybe because of it , he loves adam . he was n't gon na risk losing him . noah : certainly not for marisa . victoria : not for anyone . sage : excuse me . is anyone out there ? if someone 's out there , will you please open the door ? hello ! excu -- thank you . uh , i need to make a phone call . i need to call my husband . it 's an emergency . i caught you making an unauthorized phone call . you think you get more privileges after that ? sage : i know , okay ? i 'm sorry . it was a lapse in judgment . it 's not gon na happen again . are you married ? can you please talk to me like a human being ? i made a mistake , okay ? it happens . i am beg -- do you want me to beg ? i would like to make a phone call ! we do n't even have to tell dr. anderson it happened ! it 's not gon na hurt anybody ! do n't walk away from me ! sir , i need a phone call ! now you 've left me no choice . nick : hey . where 's faith ? is she okay ? sharon : oh , she 's -- yeah . upstairs drawing . she 's fine . nick : oh . all right . on the phone , you made it sound like -- sharon : yeah , sorry . i did n't mean to scare you , but , um , there is something we need to talk about . it 's important . nick : okay . sharon : so , faith asked me if she could move in with me and dylan full time . nick : she asked you that ? um , okay . i 'm gon na go talk to her . sharon : no , wait . nick . i think it 's important that we talk first . sit down . [ sighs ] you know , it would n't be the worst thing in the world . that way you could focus on sage 's treatment full time . nick : i want to be with my daughter . sharon : no , i know . nick : look , we have an arrangement in place . if we change it , it 's just gon na disturb her routine , and i do n't want to do that . sharon : no , only for a few days maybe . you know faith . she 's adjusted to far worse before . nick : where is this coming from ? sharon : it 's really bothering faith what sage is going through . nick : okay , well , that 's on you , sharon . sharon : what ? i 'm sorry ? nick : yes . you did not need to go into such detail about sage . she is fine , or at least she will be very soon . sharon : did her doctor tell you that ? nick : i know my wife . sharon : i know our daughter . she just wants the facts so she can be prepared , and that 's all i tried to give her . nick : well , what am i doing ? spoon - feeding her rainbows and sunshine ? sharon : you said it , not me . sage attacked dr. anderson . and then she got arrested . now she 's committed . nick : yeah , i was there . sharon : okay , well , she has serious problems , nick . nick : she 's working through them . sharon : good . i would want nothing more than for sage to get better and come home . but in the meantime , this is affecting faith , and not in a good way . nick : that is because you scared her . sharon : i was trying to be honest with her . do you want our daughter to mistrust us ? nick : no , of course i do n't . sharon : okay , well , telling her that sage is gon na be home any minute is the same as lying . nick : it 's not a lie . nick : sharon , you just do n't understand . sharon : i do . you 're hoping for the best with sage , as you should . we all are . nick : no , no , that 's not what i 'm -- sharon : and luckily she is in very good hands . dr. anderson is really skilled at what she does . i 'm living proof . nick : hey , there she is . come here , beautiful . faith : hey , daddy . nick : hi . [ sighs ] so , mommy says there 's something we should talk about . is it true ? would you rather live here with sharon and dylan ? faith : are you mad ? nick : no , no , sweetheart . of course , i 'm not mad . you have every right to feel the way you want to feel . i know things have been a little confusing lately , you know . you , uh , you just got used to living with sage , and suddenly she 's gone . sharon : but not forever . nick : no . no way . she just needs a little time to go and get better . and i do wish you felt like you could come and talk to me about it , though . sharon : sweetie , why do n't you tell your dad what you said to me about why you want to live here full time ? nick : hey . it 's okay . faith : but i do n't want to make you sad . nick : no , no . the only thing that will make me sad is if you 're sad . i just want you happy and safe . and if that means you got to live here with sharon and dylan , well , then i want that for you . faith : really ? nick : would i lie to you ? faith : i love you , daddy . nick : i love you . sage : no ! you do n't want to do this ! please ! oh ! god ! [ groans ] oh , this is a big mistake . this is a big mistake . no . dr. anderson : hey . hey , what 's -- what 's happening ? mrs. newman tried to make a call from your office . dr. anderson : do you know to whom ? her husband , but i caught her before it went through . dr. anderson : how can you be sure ? look , i do n't have to tell you how an incident like this would reflect poorly on all of us . if she 'd reached him , she would n't have been begging for more phone privileges . dr. anderson : to call her husband back . she 's desperate . even put her hands on me . i had to sedate her . dr. anderson : oh , gosh . that poor woman . she simply ca n't get over the loss of her child . i really hope i can help her move forward . it 's for the best , for her and the father . adam : so , uh , yeah . this is everything that you 're gon na need to bring my father to his knees . this is everything ? adam : far as i know , yeah . all right . you 're up . we appreciate your cooperation , mr. santori . luca : on one condition . marisa sierras ' name is kept out of any incriminating evidence . understood . for the record ? luca : also understood . [ clears throat ] my father has an entire network of illegal businesses hidden behind his legitimate corporation . he 's partnered with the lowest of the low -- arms dealers , corrupt government officials , the list goes on . chelsea : marisa , i know what true love looks like . and it is not you and luca . admit it . you thought you left that whole life behind . you thought you left him behind until suddenly he just shows up here . marisa : well , romances get rekindled all the time . chelsea : no . you 're with him for some reason . maybe , like , say , your child ? marisa : what ? chelsea : i would n't put it past luca to use the daughter you left behind as blackmail . something that noah would never do , by the way . also another reason you probably love him . marisa : look , i am not someone that life just happens to , okay ? i am in control . i chose to leave my daughter with her adopted parents even after luca brought me to her . just like i 'm choosing to stay with him now . i am choosing . chelsea : okay . all right , so you 're not with him for the child , but you 're with him for some other reason . marisa : you 're -- you 're wrong . chelsea : whatever it is , whatever is tying you to luca , it ends today . this is your chance at a fresh start with noah . marisa : it 's not that simple . it never will be . please , chelsea . i need to know where adam is springing the trap on luca . i need to stop this before all hell breaks loose . victoria : look , you have to find a way to forgive your grandfather for both of your sakes . he loves you so much . noah : in his own special way ? victoria : no , he does . trust me . even through all of our battles -- and there have been a few -- i 've always known that he 's operating from a place of concern . he wants what 's best for us , even though we ca n't always agree on what that is . noah : do n't you ever just wish he 'd stop trying to control everything ? victoria : he ca n't help it . he 's victor newman . he came from nothing . he had to fight tooth and nail to get where he is , and he has to continue to fight to stay there , to give us everything that he has . and it might be easy for you to say that you do n't want it , that you did n't ask for it , but he 's the one who had to make these tough choices . noah : you do n't know what choices -- victoria : but i do . i do . i almost lost billy because he could n't let go of the anger that he had for adam and for my father . i do n't want to see the same thing happen to you , noah . it 's such a colossal waste . billy : sorry about that . apparently jack wants me to hit the ground running . he just gave me a to - do list the size of everest . noah : going back to work back at jabot ? that 's great , billy . billy : yeah . marisa : where is luca ? adam : luca is in with the fbi . marisa : oh , god . adam : whoa . where you going ? marisa : stopping him . adam : stopping him from doing something that we both agreed that we would do ? marisa : no , no , no . if -- if you 're playing him , you have no idea of the consequences . he knows things . adam : knows things like what ? about who ? things about you ? listen , you do n't have anything to worry about , okay ? it 's no one 's intention to throw you under the bus . marisa : i 'm not talking about me , damn it ! adam : good ? who ... you talking about ? luca : [ sighs ] adam : how 'd that feel ? luca : good . adam : yeah ? luca : very good . adam : all right . luca : you ? adam : good . good , you know . not a moment of hesitation . it felt great . luca : it was easier than i thought , actually . very simple , in fact . adam : hmm . do you want to know why it was -- why it was so simple ? luca : yeah , because i could n't wait to unburden myself . adam : yeah , that and also -- uh - oh -- that guy is not really an fbi agent . he works here at newman in security -- about 10 years now , i would guess , roughly , give or take . luca : excuse me ? adam : yeah . his name is steve , steve from security . lives up on chippewa lane , wife -- beautiful wife -- two kids . hockey players . i hear it 's an expensive sport . both good skaters , though . you know , i 'm surprised that you did n't ask him to see his badge , though . luca : no , no , no , no . but the documents you gave him -- adam : the documents i gave him , they were just pieces of paper i found laying around , had `` confidential `` stamped on them . you know , that 's amazing , is n't it , how official a little stamp `` confidential `` can make -- make something look ? i mean , it 's comical , really [ chuckling ] if you think about it . that stamp cost me 2 bucks . $ 2 . what a return on your investment , huh ? luca : all these weeks , the planning , the fights with victor , the documents you fed me . you set me up . adam : hmm . how does that feel ? dr. anderson : poor sage . i heard you attacked an orderly . sage : no . i did not attack him . i just ... i wanted to talk to nick , tell him something . dr. anderson : tell him what ? sage , you have to confide in me . otherwise i ca n't help you . look , there 's nothing to be afraid of . you can tell me everything . nick : it 's gon na be pretty quiet around the house . sharon : yeah , for a while , but i think it 's for the best for faith . till sage comes home -- then things will get back to normal . nick : [ sighs ] sharon : can i get you something ? you want a beer ? nick : what time is it ? oh , this could be from sage . sage : nick , i think i found something on dr. anderson . i do n't know what it means , but i -- oh ! sharon : what 's wrong ? sharon : hi , dylan . i 'm sure you 're busy in geneva tracking down leads for adam 's kidnapper , so i 'll just leave you a message here . um , i 'm sure something will come up and you 'll be home soon . i just wanted to let you know that things are good here . um , sully took a three - hour nap today , so i hope i 'm not in for a terrible night , especially since faith is here . nick and i talked about it , and we 've decided that faith is going to stay here full time until sage is back from fairview . it was faith who brought it up , but nick was very good about it and he made her feel comfortable about our decision . i just feel really bad for him , dylan , because he 's under so much stress . but i guess this is my way of telling you that we 're going to be a family of four here for a while . but i 'm sure sage will be back here soon . how could she not be , right ? she has such great care . dr. anderson : nick . what are you doing here ? nick : uh , i wanted to see sage . dr. anderson : visiting hours are over , unfortunately . nick : well , i could n't stop thinking about what happened earlier , the things you said about my wife . i need to be realistic about the woman sage is now . dr. anderson : as opposed to the woman she used to be . nick : i need to come to terms with this . with all of it . noah : billy , you all right ? can i call somebody ? billy : no , no , no . victoria : are you sure ? billy : yes , i 'm fine . i 'm fine . victoria : maybe coming here was too much . you 're just out of the hospital . we should hold off on the lunches for now . billy : no , you 're gon na deprive me of my favorite salad after weeks of hospital food ? i do n't think so . victoria : to keep you healthy , yes . noah : billy , did the doctors say anything about , i do n't know , uh , lasting side effects from the accident ? billy : you mean besides the limp and the on - and - off blindness ? victoria : billy . billy : i 'm kidding . look , you guys , stop staring at me like i 'm about to keel over . i 'm back in fighting form . i 'm looking forward to a happy and healthy future . victoria : i better be in it . billy : you 're in it . now , can we stop talking about the accident ? victoria : i will . billy : good . victoria : as soon as we find out who hit you . billy : we will in time . i have a feeling that the karmic hammer is about to drop . hard . luca : i got to hand it to you . i did n't see that coming . adam : i know , right ? i know . that 's the best part , actually . well , for me , it 's the best part . for you , it 's probably , you know , terrible . luca : yeah . so , what are you gon na do with the information ? go to the feds ? adam : absolutely . absolutely . that 's my plan , of course . you know , if you wanted to play ball , maybe we could work something else out . luca : you mean if i leave the company . adam : hmm . luca : that 's what you want . adam : and the country , actually . i want you to talk to your pops , all right ? i want you to nullify this deal that you made with newman like it never happened . i want you to get your happy ass on a jet plane , and i want you to go back to europe . luca : you expect me to abandon marisa and turn my back on the life i 've started here ? adam : whoa , hold on a second . this is something that you brought on yourself , is n't it ? if you would have just accepted the initial offer that my father gave you , none of this would have happened . but you had to gloat , right ? you had to try to intimidate us . you had to use newman as a front . so this is what happens , all right ? we 're done . luca : okay . if i refuse ? adam : well , then your father goes to prison . father goes to prison , and it 's probably only a matter of time before you end up in a cell right next to him , right ? let me ask you a question . you know your father . how do you think he 's gon na respond when he finds out that this is n't just something that we found out , you 're the one that ratted him out ? how do you think he 's gon na react to that ?

[ sighs ] adam : so what 's the problem ? chelsea : i do n't know . i have a really bad feeling about it , the same bad feeling i had when victor sent you on that business trip . do you remember how that turned out , adam , when you got kidnapped ? adam : yeah , no , it 's not ringing a bell , sweetheart . chelsea : stop . this is n't funny . please . i - i think you should call it off . adam : i ca n't . chelsea : why ca n't you ? adam : because we may not have this opportunity again , all right ? besides , this is completely different . i 'm not in any danger at all . chelsea : um , okay . you 're not being serious right now , are you ? i mean , the santoris did n't get to where they are by being pushovers . you know that , right ? adam : yeah , i understand that , but luca 's not his father . he 's ambitious , yeah , but he 's also impatient . chelsea : well , maybe he 's smarter than you 're giving him credit for . maybe he 's conning you the way you think you 're conning him . adam : [ chuckles ] um , no . no way . no . chelsea : adam . adam : i 'm serious . chelsea : you do n't know that . adam : i do know that . i 've been around him , okay ? i can see it in his eyes , the hunger , the thirst that he has to best his father . you know what it 's like ? it 's like looking at myself in the mirror when i was younger . chelsea : when you were younger . adam : hold on a second . what 's that supposed to mean ? chelsea : pfft . i 'm just wondering if your desire to prove yourself to your father is blinding you still . adam : okay , well , i do n't know , you know , what else to say to you except that , sweetheart , you 're gon na have to trust me , okay ? chelsea : when are you gon na start trusting me ? adam : i do trust you , babe . i trust your instincts . you know that . chelsea : yet you refuse to follow them ever . adam : look ... everything 's gon na be okay , all right ? all right ? this will be over soon . just trust me . chelsea : [ sighs ] luca : i know what i 'm doing . marisa : and so do the newmans . luca , you ca n't trust them . luca : not `` them . `` adam . marisa : he went along so easily with this plan of attack . it was too simple . luca : that 's because we 're the same . ca n't you see that ? both suffocated by controlling fathers who will never step aside unless we make them . this is our chance , marisa , to get out from under their thumbs , to -- to make names for ourselves on our own merit . marisa : i understand . luca : do you ? marisa : yes . and i also understand where this all could lead . i do n't want anything ... [ sighs ] luca : you do n't want anything to happen to me . marisa : yes . yes , that 's -- that 's exactly it . i do n't want anything bad to happen . billy : you were there . in my hospital room . right ? i 'm sorry . it 's a little -- it 's a little foggy still , but abby mentioned that you came by to visit . noah : oh , uh -- billy : after i woke up . noah : yeah , i did . yeah . yeah . i was there . billy : but you did n't come in the room . what 's wrong ? i do n't rate a visit from you ? noah : no , man . no , no . it 's not like that at all . i , uh , i wanted to come and check on you . i , uh , i - i ran into my grandfather outside , and he needed to see me . billy : a directive from grandpa victor , huh ? did he need you to shine his riding boots ? victoria : do you see what i mean about his sense of humor ? billy : back in full force , baby . noah : [ chuckles ] [ cell phone rings ] billy : excuse me for a second . noah : yeah . billy : jack . what 's up ? victoria : what 's the matter with you ? noah : what do you mean ? victoria : sit down . you seem a little tense . noah : [ scoffs ] well , grandpa has that effect on me . [ sighs ] victoria : ah , i see . you 're upset about what happened with marisa . noah : upset ? you think ? not to mention what he did to that -- the internet girl just because he wanted to steal a business deal out from under billy , right ? the man thinks he can do anything he wants . victoria : because usually he can . noah : not this time . victoria : do n't go down that same dark road that billy went down . it never ends up where you think it will . noah : so i 'm just supposed to forget what he did ? victoria : [ sighs ] no , you do n't have to forget . just do n't let it take you over , either . noah : easy for you to say . victoria : actually , it 's not . you do n't know how many times i 've railed at the all - powerful victor newman . but i 've learned from the past , and thankfully , so has billy .

[ knock on door ] chelsea : all right ! what ? ! marisa : i need to speak to adam . chelsea : he 's not home . marisa : [ sighs ] he already left ? chelsea : yeah . did n't luca ? marisa : yeah , i just thought maybe adam would be running late . chelsea : what 's wrong ? marisa : you tell me . chelsea : w - what is that supposed to mean ? marisa : this plan they 're cooking up . adam and luca bringing down their fathers -- is it legitimate ? chelsea : why would n't it be ? marisa : i do n't know . maybe 'cause adam 's a known liar and a fake . chelsea : okay , slow down . do not be coming into my home badmouthing my husband . marisa : i apologize . i should not have said that about adam . i 'm just scared . okay , i have this pit in my stomach that this is all a setup . if luca 's about to be double - crossed , i need to know . chelsea : why ? i mean , would it really be that horrible ? with luca out of the picture , you can finally be free . marisa : luca 's my husband . chelsea : yes . i mean , but let 's be honest . everybody knows the real person you 're in love with is noah . noah : victoria , it was n't billy 's hate for grandpa that got him into trouble . [ sighs ] i do n't know . it was his need to salvage his family 's company . you know , that 's why he wanted in on that deal so bad . it 's why he went back to gambling -- to get the up - front money . victoria : okay . technically , that 's true . noah : and who put him in that position in the first place , hmm ? grandpa . the man almost brought the abbotts to the brink of collapse . victoria : it 's a lot more complicated than that . noah : i do n't think so . victoria : look , you ca n't pin this all on grandpa . billy was battling some of his own demons . noah : all of them bearing the name victor newman . victoria : that 's not true . noah : look , however we got here , i - i feel awful that i did n't get to spend more time with billy in the hospital . and in the name of what ? so i can sit at the knee of an egomaniac who explains away everything -- everything -- in the name of family ? victoria : i feel like we 're back to marisa again and how dad -- noah : kidnapped . abducted . shanghaied . any of those work . victoria : i am not condoning what he did . he was scared . noah : victor newman is n't afraid of anything . victoria : except when it comes to his children and his grandchildren . look , despite that they 've been through and maybe because of it , he loves adam . he was n't gon na risk losing him . noah : certainly not for marisa . victoria : not for anyone . sage : excuse me . is anyone out there ? if someone 's out there , will you please open the door ? hello ! excu -- thank you . uh , i need to make a phone call . i need to call my husband . it 's an emergency . i caught you making an unauthorized phone call . you think you get more privileges after that ? sage : i know , okay ? i 'm sorry . it was a lapse in judgment . it 's not gon na happen again . are you married ? can you please talk to me like a human being ? i made a mistake , okay ? it happens . i am beg -- do you want me to beg ? i would like to make a phone call ! we do n't even have to tell dr. anderson it happened ! it 's not gon na hurt anybody ! do n't walk away from me ! sir , i need a phone call ! now you 've left me no choice . nick : hey . where 's faith ? is she okay ? sharon : oh , she 's -- yeah . upstairs drawing . she 's fine . nick : oh . all right . on the phone , you made it sound like -- sharon : yeah , sorry . i did n't mean to scare you , but , um , there is something we need to talk about . it 's important . nick : okay . sharon : so , faith asked me if she could move in with me and dylan full time . nick : she asked you that ? um , okay . i 'm gon na go talk to her . sharon : no , wait . nick . i think it 's important that we talk first . sit down . [ sighs ] you know , it would n't be the worst thing in the world . that way you could focus on sage 's treatment full time . nick : i want to be with my daughter . sharon : no , i know . nick : look , we have an arrangement in place . if we change it , it 's just gon na disturb her routine , and i do n't want to do that . sharon : no , only for a few days maybe . you know faith . she 's adjusted to far worse before . nick : where is this coming from ? sharon : it 's really bothering faith what sage is going through . nick : okay , well , that 's on you , sharon . sharon : what ? i 'm sorry ? nick : yes . you did not need to go into such detail about sage . she is fine , or at least she will be very soon . sharon : did her doctor tell you that ? nick : i know my wife . sharon : i know our daughter . she just wants the facts so she can be prepared , and that 's all i tried to give her . nick : well , what am i doing ? spoon - feeding her rainbows and sunshine ? sharon : you said it , not me . sage attacked dr. anderson . and then she got arrested . now she 's committed . nick : yeah , i was there . sharon : okay , well , she has serious problems , nick . nick : she 's working through them . sharon : good . i would want nothing more than for sage to get better and come home . but in the meantime , this is affecting faith , and not in a good way . nick : that is because you scared her . sharon : i was trying to be honest with her . do you want our daughter to mistrust us ? nick : no , of course i do n't . sharon : okay , well , telling her that sage is gon na be home any minute is the same as lying . nick : it 's not a lie . nick : sharon , you just do n't understand . sharon : i do . you 're hoping for the best with sage , as you should . we all are . nick : no , no , that 's not what i 'm -- sharon : and luckily she is in very good hands . dr. anderson is really skilled at what she does . i 'm living proof . nick : hey , there she is . come here , beautiful . faith : hey , daddy . nick : hi . [ sighs ] so , mommy says there 's something we should talk about . is it true ? would you rather live here with sharon and dylan ? faith : are you mad ? nick : no , no , sweetheart . of course , i 'm not mad . you have every right to feel the way you want to feel . i know things have been a little confusing lately , you know . you , uh , you just got used to living with sage , and suddenly she 's gone . sharon : but not forever . nick : no . no way . she just needs a little time to go and get better . and i do wish you felt like you could come and talk to me about it , though . sharon : sweetie , why do n't you tell your dad what you said to me about why you want to live here full time ? nick : hey . it 's okay . faith : but i do n't want to make you sad . nick : no , no . the only thing that will make me sad is if you 're sad . i just want you happy and safe . and if that means you got to live here with sharon and dylan , well , then i want that for you . faith : really ? nick : would i lie to you ? faith : i love you , daddy . nick : i love you . sage : no ! you do n't want to do this ! please ! oh ! god ! [ groans ] oh , this is a big mistake . this is a big mistake . no . dr. anderson : hey . hey , what 's -- what 's happening ? mrs. newman tried to make a call from your office . dr. anderson : do you know to whom ? her husband , but i caught her before it went through . dr. anderson : how can you be sure ? look , i do n't have to tell you how an incident like this would reflect poorly on all of us . if she 'd reached him , she would n't have been begging for more phone privileges . dr. anderson : to call her husband back . she 's desperate . even put her hands on me . i had to sedate her . dr. anderson : oh , gosh . that poor woman . she simply ca n't get over the loss of her child . i really hope i can help her move forward . it 's for the best , for her and the father . adam : so , uh , yeah . this is everything that you 're gon na need to bring my father to his knees . this is everything ? adam : far as i know , yeah . all right . you 're up . we appreciate your cooperation , mr. santori . luca : on one condition . marisa sierras ' name is kept out of any incriminating evidence . understood . for the record ? luca : also understood . [ clears throat ] my father has an entire network of illegal businesses hidden behind his legitimate corporation . he 's partnered with the lowest of the low -- arms dealers , corrupt government officials , the list goes on . chelsea : marisa , i know what true love looks like . and it is not you and luca . admit it . you thought you left that whole life behind . you thought you left him behind until suddenly he just shows up here . marisa : well , romances get rekindled all the time . chelsea : no . you 're with him for some reason . maybe , like , say , your child ? marisa : what ? chelsea : i would n't put it past luca to use the daughter you left behind as blackmail . something that noah would never do , by the way . also another reason you probably love him . marisa : look , i am not someone that life just happens to , okay ? i am in control . i chose to leave my daughter with her adopted parents even after luca brought me to her . just like i 'm choosing to stay with him now . i am choosing . chelsea : okay . all right , so you 're not with him for the child , but you 're with him for some other reason . marisa : you 're -- you 're wrong . chelsea : whatever it is , whatever is tying you to luca , it ends today . this is your chance at a fresh start with noah . marisa : it 's not that simple . it never will be . please , chelsea . i need to know where adam is springing the trap on luca . i need to stop this before all hell breaks loose . victoria : look , you have to find a way to forgive your grandfather for both of your sakes . he loves you so much . noah : in his own special way ? victoria : no , he does . trust me . even through all of our battles -- and there have been a few -- i 've always known that he 's operating from a place of concern . he wants what 's best for us , even though we ca n't always agree on what that is . noah : do n't you ever just wish he 'd stop trying to control everything ? victoria : he ca n't help it . he 's victor newman . he came from nothing . he had to fight tooth and nail to get where he is , and he has to continue to fight to stay there , to give us everything that he has . and it might be easy for you to say that you do n't want it , that you did n't ask for it , but he 's the one who had to make these tough choices . noah : you do n't know what choices -- victoria : but i do . i do . i almost lost billy because he could n't let go of the anger that he had for adam and for my father . i do n't want to see the same thing happen to you , noah . it 's such a colossal waste . billy : sorry about that . apparently jack wants me to hit the ground running . he just gave me a to - do list the size of everest . noah : going back to work back at jabot ? that 's great , billy . billy : yeah . marisa : where is luca ? adam : luca is in with the fbi . marisa : oh , god . adam : whoa . where you going ? marisa : stopping him . adam : stopping him from doing something that we both agreed that we would do ? marisa : no , no , no . if -- if you 're playing him , you have no idea of the consequences . he knows things . adam : knows things like what ? about who ? things about you ? listen , you do n't have anything to worry about , okay ? it 's no one 's intention to throw you under the bus . marisa : i 'm not talking about me , damn it ! adam : good ? who ... you talking about ? luca : [ sighs ] adam : how 'd that feel ? luca : good . adam : yeah ? luca : very good . adam : all right . luca : you ? adam : good . good , you know . not a moment of hesitation . it felt great . luca : it was easier than i thought , actually . very simple , in fact . adam : hmm . do you want to know why it was -- why it was so simple ? luca : yeah , because i could n't wait to unburden myself . adam : yeah , that and also -- uh - oh -- that guy is not really an fbi agent . he works here at newman in security -- about 10 years now , i would guess , roughly , give or take . luca : excuse me ? adam : yeah . his name is steve , steve from security . lives up on chippewa lane , wife -- beautiful wife -- two kids . hockey players . i hear it 's an expensive sport . both good skaters , though . you know , i 'm surprised that you did n't ask him to see his badge , though . luca : no , no , no , no . but the documents you gave him -- adam : the documents i gave him , they were just pieces of paper i found laying around , had `` confidential `` stamped on them . you know , that 's amazing , is n't it , how official a little stamp `` confidential `` can make -- make something look ? i mean , it 's comical , really [ chuckling ] if you think about it . that stamp cost me 2 bucks . $ 2 . what a return on your investment , huh ? luca : all these weeks , the planning , the fights with victor , the documents you fed me . you set me up . adam : hmm . how does that feel ? dr. anderson : poor sage . i heard you attacked an orderly . sage : no . i did not attack him . i just ... i wanted to talk to nick , tell him something . dr. anderson : tell him what ? sage , you have to confide in me . otherwise i ca n't help you . look , there 's nothing to be afraid of . you can tell me everything . nick : it 's gon na be pretty quiet around the house . sharon : yeah , for a while , but i think it 's for the best for faith . till sage comes home -- then things will get back to normal . nick : [ sighs ] sharon : can i get you something ? you want a beer ? nick : what time is it ? oh , this could be from sage . sage : nick , i think i found something on dr. anderson . i do n't know what it means , but i -- oh ! sharon : what 's wrong ? sharon : hi , dylan . i 'm sure you 're busy in geneva tracking down leads for adam 's kidnapper , so i 'll just leave you a message here . um , i 'm sure something will come up and you 'll be home soon . i just wanted to let you know that things are good here . um , sully took a three - hour nap today , so i hope i 'm not in for a terrible night , especially since faith is here . nick and i talked about it , and we 've decided that faith is going to stay here full time until sage is back from fairview . it was faith who brought it up , but nick was very good about it and he made her feel comfortable about our decision . i just feel really bad for him , dylan , because he 's under so much stress . but i guess this is my way of telling you that we 're going to be a family of four here for a while . but i 'm sure sage will be back here soon . how could she not be , right ? she has such great care . dr. anderson : nick . what are you doing here ? nick : uh , i wanted to see sage . dr. anderson : visiting hours are over , unfortunately . nick : well , i could n't stop thinking about what happened earlier , the things you said about my wife . i need to be realistic about the woman sage is now . dr. anderson : as opposed to the woman she used to be . nick : i need to come to terms with this . with all of it . noah : billy , you all right ? can i call somebody ? billy : no , no , no . victoria : are you sure ? billy : yes , i 'm fine . i 'm fine . victoria : maybe coming here was too much . you 're just out of the hospital . we should hold off on the lunches for now . billy : no , you 're gon na deprive me of my favorite salad after weeks of hospital food ?

dante : michael is in a cellblock with some of the worst lowlifes you can think of -- thieves , dealers , killers . the only lesson he 's learning is how to survive by any means necessary . you wan na help him turn his life around , why do n't you get him out of there , put him back in school , surround him with people who can teach him to do something other than watch his back ? judge carroll : people like his father ? sonny corinthos lived like he was above the law for years . his children were taught the rules do n't apply . my job , detective , is to clear up that misconception . dante : michael should n't be held responsible for the mistakes the adults in his life are making . judge carroll : michael is paying for taking a woman 's life . dante : yeah , a woman who kidnapped his mother at gunpoint and almost ran off with his baby sister . judge carroll : i 'm aware of the circumstances , detective . that 's why michael was charged with involuntary manslaughter and not murder . dante : your honor , i do n't think you 're thinkin ' about how much -- judge carroll : i assure you that i never hand down a sentence without thinking long and hard about whether the punishment fits the crime . your brother 's case was no exception . michael confessed to killing claudia . i gave him 5 years with parole after 2 . now , in my book , that is the very definition of lenient . dante : your honor , i 'm trying -- judge carroll : my decision stands , detective . [ scene_break ] jason : was it dante again ? michael : lulu . wanted to make sure i know how bad dante feels about how everything 's played out . jason : you know it 's not your job to make dante and lulu feel better for what they did , right ? michael : i know . lulu 's worried about what 'll happen if dante keeps pushing to get me released . she 's afraid he might cross the line and lose his badge or get fed up and leave the force . i mean , hell , either way , dad 's happy . dante 's not a cop anymore , he can take over the organization . we 'd both get cut out . [ scene_break ] sonny : get your hands off my daughter . kristina : johnny does n't take orders from you , and neither do i . sonny : kristina , i do n't know what lies johnny 's feedin ' you now , but this is not right . johnny : i 'm the liar ? that 's rich , sonny , after all the whitewashing of the truth that you 've done . well , that 's over now . the truth 's out . kristina sees you for the selfish , abusive bastard that you are . sonny : you 're takin ' this way too far . let go of my daughter 's hand . now . [ scene_break ] lulu : hey . got a minute ? carly : sure . for you , of course . what 's up ? lulu : i went to pentonville to see michael , thought you might want an update . carly : oh . how is he ? lulu : he 's good . he 's better than i expected . i mean , when dante told me what happened last night , i thought maybe he 'd be a little shaken up . carly : what do you mean , `` what happened last night `` ? what happened to michael ? lulu : no , another inmate . i thought that you knew . carly : knew what ? lulu : a guy named carter was killed , and dante said that he had been giving michael trouble , and apparently jason took care of him . no one can prove it . carly : okay , why am i just hearing about this now ? lulu : the only reason that dante knows is because he was there when the warden pulled jason out to question him . they were threatening him with solitary for the rest of his sentence , but michael says everything is fine , and jason 's back in his cell . he just ca n't have visitors for a while . i know that this is a lot to take in right now . honestly , though , michael seems fine . carly : he 's not fine , lulu . he wo n't be fine till he 's out of prison . [ scene_break ] dante : this is an 18-year - old kid we 're talkin ' about here , a good kid who will be turned into a hardened criminal by the time he gets out . please , i mean , your honor , michael has already lost a year of life because of sonny and claudia 's power struggle . her death should not cost him 2 more . judge carroll : if michael had come forth and confessed the night it happened , things would be different . dante : you act like he had a choice . judge carroll : there 's always a choice , detective . dante : not when you 're sonny corinthos ' kid . by the time michael had realized what he 'd done , the cover - up was already set in place . jason and sonny swooped in , got rid of the evidence , made sure everyone had their stories straight . okay , that 's just a day at the office for those 2 guys , but not for michael . what happened at the cabin that night weighed on him for months . judge carroll : therein lies the problem . months passed , and michael remained silent . his one halfhearted attempt at confession was not sufficient proof of his remorse . dante : because sonny was pressuring him to keep the secret . i can tell you from personal experience that man is very difficult to refuse . i was working undercover . my job was to take sonny down , and i can tell you the longer i was on the job , the harder it got to tell the difference between sonny the cold- blooded killer and sonny the good father , and i 'm an experienced cop . we 're talkin ' about a kid , his teenage son , who just wants to make his father happy . judge carroll : now , perhaps now you can see why i thought it necessary to remove michael from under sonny 's influence . dante : unlike sonny , michael has a conscience . despite what everyone in his life was telling him to do , which was to keep his mouth shut , he wanted to take responsibility for his actions , which he did . judge carroll : after you forced his hand . dante : you need to understand the strength it took for michael to go up against sonny , a man he grew up idolizing , and tell the truth at all . michael did the right thing . i 'm asking you to do the same thing and show him a little compassion . [ scene_break ] michael : maybe lulu 's right to worry . i mean , dante did go to jail for tryin ' to get morgan off the witness stand at dad 's trial . who knows how far he 'll go to get me released ? even if it 's only to clear his conscience . jason : look , i 'm all for dante usin ' any pull he has to get you out of here . do not mistake his guilt for loyalty , because when it comes down to helping you or his badge , he 's gon na make the same decision every single time . nothing is more important to him than being a cop . michael : yeah , but dante lied in court about how he got shot . i mean , he swore under oath that the gun went off by accident , right ? jason : mm - hmm . michael : so if he cares about being a cop so much , why would he risk his job to protect dad ? jason : because i think he was actually protecting the case he built against sonny for killing claudia . now , see , your dad may wan na believe it was something more , that some switch flipped in dante when he heard that sonny was his father . but if anything , i think it actually made dante wan na prove the opposite , that the badge that he carries makes him a better man than sonny . michael : yeah , whether dante 's a cop or not , dad 'll still want him in his life . jason : you 're right about that . family is very important to your father . all the lies , all the betrayal of dante , it does n't matter , because once sonny found out that dante was his son , he loved him . michael : yeah , dad always trusted dante more than he trusted me . at least , with the business . i mean , he was grooming dante to take over , jason , a guy he 's only known for 3 months . i did n't get it before , but i get it now . i mean , even then , dad had this connection to dante . jason : you know your father loves you . michael : yeah . jason : i mean , you 're as much his son as dante and morgan , michael . michael : ah , you see what the difference is dad sees dante as a man . to him , i am just a kid who he needs to protect . [ scene_break ] sonny : are you gon na come at me through my daughter , exploiting her fears by makin ' me look like some kind of monster ? puttin ' your hands all over her ? that goes way beyond disrespect . kristina : johnny 's not doing anything wrong . sonny : johnny , johnny , do me a favor . let go of that hand . johnny : okay , but it is a public street , sonny , so i can hold her hand if i want . hell , i can do a lot more than that . sonny : she 's 17 . johnny : which is the legal age of consent in the state of new york . however far we take this does not concern you . sonny : car 's out there , okay ? just wait for me . kristina : i 'm not leaving johnny . sonny : i want you to go in the car right now . kristina : no ! i 'm sick and tired of you trying to run my life . why ca n't you just let me be happy ? sonny : with him ? ! kristina : at least i know johnny would never hurt me . sonny : johnny is using you , sweetheart . he wants me to suffer . he could care less if he hurts you . you think that 's a decent guy ? you should be with -- you deserve somebody better . let me take you home , please . [ scene_break ] maya : how did you pay for this ? ethan : you know , i do all right . maya : oh , is that why you 're ripping off the quartermaines ? ethan : well , see , i bought this place with profits from a big win , all right , and i sunk pretty much every dime into it . i was hoping my luck would hold , but i wanted a little insurance , you know ? maya : hmm . here 's a thought . do n't live above your means . ethan : oh , come on . where 's the fun in that ? i mean , we get one shot at this life , right ? why not make it as sweet as possible ? maya : hmm . ethan : you want some wine ? maya : got any red ? ethan : i 'll go check . maya : something wrong with that bottle ? [ scene_break ] dante : sonny 's a compelling force . for michael to go up against him like that took guts . i know grown men who would n't dare defy sonny 's wishes . imagine how tough it was for his own son to go up against him in open court , no less . judge carroll : the fact is that michael committed a crime , several if the continued cover - up is taken into consideration . now , he needs to learn there are consequences to his actions . dante : he just got the crap beat out of him by some sick freak who found his way into his cell . how 's that for consequences ? judge carroll : i appreciate your outrage , detective falconeri , but i suggest you direct it somewhere else . i 'm only trying to help michael . dante : yeah , by letting him rot . he 's young , vulnerable , the kind of kid that prison 'll destroy . where 's the justice in that ? judge carroll : i never said it was a perfect system . prison is full of sad stories and bad choices , but the law is the law . dante : the law 's supposed to help people , not inflict wounds so deep that they never have any chance of healing . judge carroll : what would you have me do , detective falconeri ? you 've already pointed out how compelling sonny corinthos is . if i release him , he 'll run back to his father and a life of crime , and where would be the justice in that ? [ scene_break ] sonny : i 'm sure johnny understands you , right , he knows , you know , what you 're going ' through , how you feel . but it 's an act . do n't buy into it . kristina : johnny understands me better than anyone . he had to watch his sister go through the same thing that i went through ... sonny : same thing that you went -- kristina : because of you . sonny : oh , really ? the same thing you went through ? i never raised a hand to claudia . johnny : no , you just beat her down emotionally until she finally broke , made her feel so bad about herself she eventually got desperate and crazy . sonny : your sister was crazy before i ever married her . you wan na blame somebody , blame your family tree . your dad was as crazy as it comes . kristina : do you even hear yourself ? claudia 's dead , and you 're still degrading her . sonny : johnny -- johnny knows that you 're vulnerable , and he 's using what happened with kiefer to make it look like that 's what i did to his sister , honey . johnny : i did n't make her think anything . she 's seen your temper firsthand . sonny : johnny is playing you , okay ? this is not a game . you 're dealing with a dangerous man . you should n't be anywhere near him . kristina : you act like you 're so much better than johnny , but you 're not . he 's a gangster , and so are you . he 's obsessed with money and power , and guess what . so are you . there 's one huge difference , dad . johnny knows how to treat a woman . sonny : you 're a teenage girl . he 's a grown man . this is sick . he should know better . johnny : in the eyes of the state of new york , we 're both consenting adults . kristina : i wan na be with johnny , and if you do n't like it , too bad . sonny : this is n't over . kristina : told you it 'd work . [ scene_break ] michael : so dad wants me to start taking correspondence classes , finish up my credits early so i can start college as soon as i 'm out of prison . jason : it 's not a bad idea . you should be learnin ' other things than just , you know , self - defense . michael : yeah , well , books are n't gon na keep me safe in here . jason : yeah , there 's more to prison than learning how to defend yourself , michael . i mean , bein ' stuck in a place like this can make you dead inside . i do n't want to see that happen to you . michael : what if it already has ? jason : two years may seem like a long time , but it 's not . you 're gon na have a life after this , i promise you , so that 's what you got ta focus on . when things get tough in here , you got ta focus on what comes next . michael : i 'm a convicted killer , jason . no college is gon na want me , no matter how much money dad throws at them . i would n't even go , anyways , if i got in . the reason you go to college is to figure out what you wan na do with your life . hell , i already know what i wan na do . my place is with you and dad in the business . jason : you can choose anything you want . why would you choose that lifestyle for yourself ? michael : it 's the world i grew up in . it 's the world i know . hell , with a murder conviction hangin ' over my head , it 's all i 'm good for . jason : are you really , seriously willing to risk being sent back to this hellhole for the rest of your life ? [ scene_break ] dante : you sent michael to prison so he would learn to respect the law and see that no one , not even the great sonny corinthos is above it . judge carroll : your point ? dante : sonny did everything he could to beat the system -- obstructing justice , tampering with evidence , conspiracy to cover it up . you suspend michael 's sentence , he 'll see that it 's okay to trust the system . he 'll see that telling the truth , doing the right thing , no matter what the cost , pays off in the end . he knows the difference between right and wrong , good and bad . i mean , if the point of all of this was to see justice served , would n't it be justice to give this kid a better chance at life instead of destroying him completely ? is n't that the real lesson you wanted for him ? judge carroll : if i did release michael , there would need to be certain restrictions in place . dante : your honor , whatever you want . i mean , electronic monitoring , daily therapy , whatever you want , i guarantee you it 'll happen . [ scene_break ] kristina : oh , when you mentioned the age of consent , i thought my dad was going to burst a blood vessel . johnny : yeah , the last thing a father wants to hear from his little girl is talk about sex . hey , look , i 'm sorry if i overstepped any sort of boundaries that you -- kristina : why are you apologizing ? i told you to play along and make it convincing . johnny : right , but it 's not right if it makes you uncomfortable . you 've been through enough these past few months . i do n't need to add to it . kristina : looking my dad in the face and calling him on his crap felt really good , like i was finally taking control of my life . johnny : you sure this is the way to do that ? kristina : you saw the look on my dad 's face . are you honestly going to tell me it was n't worth it ? johnny : it 's always nice to see sonny squirm . kristina : so what 's the problem ? johnny : you heard your father , and i agree with him . you are much too young to be hangin ' out with me . kristina : but we 're only pretending to be involved , remember ? johnny : yes . kristina : no feelings . no real contact . it pretty much eliminates any chance of getting hurt . johnny : but it puts you in the middle of me and sonny , and that 's a nasty , dangerous place to be , kristina . kristina : if the state of new york recognizes the fact that i 'm mature enough to make my own decisions , should n't you ? johnny : this was a one - time thing , okay ? it ca n't happen again .

[ scene_break ] johnny : oh . well , that was very rude of me . i 'm sorry to barge in and break up your date . maya : it 's not a date . johnny : that 's good . so you 're not gon na mind when i pull him away for a second . huh ? give us a minute . we got some business to discuss . ethan : can it wait till after we 've finished here ? johnny : you heard the lady . it 's not a date . it 's not a date , right ? ethan : do n't rush off . maya : you know what ? ethan : do n't let him scare you . maya : i should actually get going . i 'm gon na put this in the laundry so the stain does n't set . see you . ethan : all right , well , i guess i 'll see you around . okay . maya : uh - huh . bye . johnny : so she honestly believes this is your place ? ethan : hey , man . it could be someday , you know , if this job keeps paying as well as you say . johnny : yeah . do n't get ahead of yourself there , turbo . this partnership may not last as long as we had initially anticipated . sonny 's gon na be gunnin ' for me with everything he 's got . ethan : yeah , how is that different than any other day ? johnny : because i gave in to my worst impulse . remember kristina 's plan about us pretending to date so she could rebel against her father ? ethan : yeah . no , i remember you told me you turned her down . johnny : i -- sonny walked up , and kristina and i were talking . she grabbed my hand , and i did n't fight it . i made it innocent enough , trust me , but i did paint a pretty graphic picture , let sonny believe that i 'm sleepin ' with his little daughter . ethan : all right , johnny , we have to move now , because if sonny 's got a rocket launcher , which i 'm sure he does , we 're toast , okay ? johnny : i get it , and i know that it was wrong , and i told kristina that after sonny left , but i do n't know . at the moment , if you could have seen that look on sonny 's face , it made it almost too good to pass up .

[ scene_break ] claire : the longer you keep me waiting , the higher franco 's body count grows , so if you have information , you have to share it with me now . jason : why would i do that ? claire : all right , mr. morgan . allow me to lay it out for you . i 'm the one who made it possible for you to be here with michael , protect him , share a cell . my footwork saved you the trouble of knocking off a liquor store . that should garner goodwill . so how 'bout it , mr. morgan ? i scratched your back . time to return the favor . jason : i 'll help you put franco away , but you got ta get michael out of here first . [ scene_break ] carly : are you okay with lulu coming here to visit ? i mean , i know how she can be when it comes to dante , and it ca n't be easy listening to her go on about dante and build him up about what a great brother he is when he 's the reason you 're in here . so you just say the word , and i 'll tell her she ca n't come back . michael : dante just feels guilty . that 's why he and lulu come here , just to make themselves feel better . i know , but seeing them does n't bother me . i mean , it does n't bother me at all . i mean , i take any excuse to get out of my cell . but i do kind of feel bad for lulu , though . carly : why ? michael : because she fell for dante 's act . so she thinks he 's this perfect guy . he 's got her trusting him just the way that dad trusted him , and look how that turned out . i -- i have a feeling it 's gon na be worse for lulu . i think she 's ridin ' for a fall , mom , a big one . carly : she is . they both are . [ scene_break ] lulu : so the table , the floor . dante : kitchen counter , the elevator . i think the fire escape might be pretty fun , too . lulu : oh , wow . that is quite a list . dante : well , i figured it 's about time we christened every inch of this place . lulu : we 're off to a pretty good start . dante : well , do n't be slackin ' off on the job . there 's a lot more work to do . lulu : i 'm so proud of you . dante : i do n't think my mother would be proud if she knew what we just used that table for . lulu : no , i 'm serious . you were determined to save michael from sonny and from prison , and you did n't stop until you got him released . dante : how did you know ? lulu : well , i would love to take credit for that smile , but you were wearing it when you walked in . so what happened ? dante : i talked to judge carroll , convinced him that michael would learn a lot more in school than he would in a prison cell . lulu : well , you are an amazing brother , and michael is very lucky to have you . dante : let 's hope michael hopes so , because there 's a catch . judge carroll does n't want michael around anyone who 's associated with the business , so that 's sonny and jason . lulu : well , carly already cut sonny out of morgan 's life , so i 'm sure she wo n't have a problem doing that with michael , and jason 's still in prison . they 're not letting jason out , too , are they ? dante : no . it was n't part of the deal i made . lulu : what is the deal that you made ? dante : the judge suspended michael 's sentence , and i agreed to take responsibility for him , which means he 's movin ' in here with me .

[ scene_break ] alexis : i do n't think she 's doing this . i do n't , because you know she 's in therapy . sonny : it only took johnny a few minutes to convince kristina that i 'm no better than kiefer . all he did is get on the witness stand and gave the performance of a lifetime . everybody felt sorry for claudia . if he can do that , then he could persuade a teenage girl to have sex with him . alexis : no . no , you see , because if she were doing this , i would know about it , because i am watching her now like a hawk . i am on her like white rice . she would n't do this . would she ? oh , god . oh , my god . what is she thinking , and what is he thinking ? why would he take advantage of her ? he knows exactly what she 's been going through . sonny : he could justify hurting anyone if it means gettin ' back at me . now he wants revenge , so he 's gon na use our teenage daughter to do it . alexis : okay , how do you know exactly that they 're doing it ? sonny : how do i know ? because he threw it in my face . alexis : he 'd say -- sonny : he said , last time he checked , 17 was the age of consent . alexis : but he would say anything to provoke you . i do n't wan na know what he said . i do n't care . what did she say ? i want her exact words . sonny : okay . `` i 'm stayin ' with johnny . if you do n't like it , too bad . `` alexis : so she 's punishing herself because she knows what kiefer did was wrong , but she does n't know where to place the blame . sonny : johnny has convinced her that he understands . if he takes advantage of my daughter , he wo n't be livin ' too long . alexis : you know what ? do n't do that again . sonny : okay , wait a minute . if johnny is havin ' sex with our daughter , he 's dead . | kristina and johnny pretend to be a couple to annoy sonny . ethan invites maya to johnny 's apartment and pretends it is his place . johnny comes home and plays along . when maya leaves , he tells ethan about what happened with sonny and kristina . ethan concludes that they will have to move fast , before sonny comes after johnny . sonny summons olivia to his office and tells her that johnny is screwing kristina and therefore she needs to understand that johnny has to die . he summons alexis to his office and tells her about seeing johnny and kristina together . she wonders why he did n't drag her away from johnny . he says that would have proven her case that he is abusive . he tells her that johnny point out that kristina is a consenting adult . alexis refuses to believe that johnny and kristina are having sex . sonny says that if johnny is having sex with kristina , he is dead . kristina goes to johnny 's apartment and asks him what he is doing friday . he tells her he wo n't be pretending to be her boyfriend because that was a one - shot deal . she picks up a half - empty wine glass from the table and sprawls on his sofa . olivia comes in as johnny is leaning over to take the wine from kristina . | <s>[INST] dante : michael is in a cellblock with some of the worst lowlifes you can think of -- thieves , dealers , killers . the only lesson he 's learning is how to survive by any means necessary . you wan na help him turn his life around , why do n't you get him out of there , put him back in school , surround him with people who can teach him to do something other than watch his back ? judge carroll : people like his father ? sonny corinthos lived like he was above the law for years . his children were taught the rules do n't apply . my job , detective , is to clear up that misconception . dante : michael should n't be held responsible for the mistakes the adults in his life are making . judge carroll : michael is paying for taking a woman 's life . dante : yeah , a woman who kidnapped his mother at gunpoint and almost ran off with his baby sister . judge carroll : i 'm aware of the circumstances , detective . that 's why michael was charged with involuntary manslaughter and not murder . dante : your honor , i do n't think you 're thinkin ' about how much -- judge carroll : i assure you that i never hand down a sentence without thinking long and hard about whether the punishment fits the crime . your brother 's case was no exception . michael confessed to killing claudia . i gave him 5 years with parole after 2 . now , in my book , that is the very definition of lenient . dante : your honor , i 'm trying -- judge carroll : my decision stands , detective . [ scene_break ] jason : was it dante again ? michael : lulu . wanted to make sure i know how bad dante feels about how everything 's played out . jason : you know it 's not your job to make dante and lulu feel better for what they did , right ? michael : i know . lulu 's worried about what 'll happen if dante keeps pushing to get me released . she 's afraid he might cross the line and lose his badge or get fed up and leave the force . i mean , hell , either way , dad 's happy . dante 's not a cop anymore , he can take over the organization . we 'd both get cut out . [ scene_break ] sonny : get your hands off my daughter . kristina : johnny does n't take orders from you , and neither do i . sonny : kristina , i do n't know what lies johnny 's feedin ' you now , but this is not right . johnny : i 'm the liar ? that 's rich , sonny , after all the whitewashing of the truth that you 've done . well , that 's over now . the truth 's out . kristina sees you for the selfish , abusive bastard that you are . sonny : you 're takin ' this way too far . let go of my daughter 's hand . now . [ scene_break ] lulu : hey . got a minute ? carly : sure . for you , of course . what 's up ? lulu : i went to pentonville to see michael , thought you might want an update . carly : oh . how is he ? lulu : he 's good . he 's better than i expected . i mean , when dante told me what happened last night , i thought maybe he 'd be a little shaken up . carly : what do you mean , `` what happened last night `` ? what happened to michael ? lulu : no , another inmate . i thought that you knew . carly : knew what ? lulu : a guy named carter was killed , and dante said that he had been giving michael trouble , and apparently jason took care of him . no one can prove it . carly : okay , why am i just hearing about this now ? lulu : the only reason that dante knows is because he was there when the warden pulled jason out to question him . they were threatening him with solitary for the rest of his sentence , but michael says everything is fine , and jason 's back in his cell . he just ca n't have visitors for a while . i know that this is a lot to take in right now . honestly , though , michael seems fine . carly : he 's not fine , lulu . he wo n't be fine till he 's out of prison . [ scene_break ] dante : this is an 18-year - old kid we 're talkin ' about here , a good kid who will be turned into a hardened criminal by the time he gets out . please , i mean , your honor , michael has already lost a year of life because of sonny and claudia 's power struggle . her death should not cost him 2 more . judge carroll : if michael had come forth and confessed the night it happened , things would be different . dante : you act like he had a choice . judge carroll : there 's always a choice , detective . dante : not when you 're sonny corinthos ' kid . by the time michael had realized what he 'd done , the cover - up was already set in place . jason and sonny swooped in , got rid of the evidence , made sure everyone had their stories straight . okay , that 's just a day at the office for those 2 guys , but not for michael . what happened at the cabin that night weighed on him for months . judge carroll : therein lies the problem . months passed , and michael remained silent . his one halfhearted attempt at confession was not sufficient proof of his remorse . dante : because sonny was pressuring him to keep the secret . i can tell you from personal experience that man is very difficult to refuse . i was working undercover . my job was to take sonny down , and i can tell you the longer i was on the job , the harder it got to tell the difference between sonny the cold- blooded killer and sonny the good father , and i 'm an experienced cop . we 're talkin ' about a kid , his teenage son , who just wants to make his father happy . judge carroll : now , perhaps now you can see why i thought it necessary to remove michael from under sonny 's influence . dante : unlike sonny , michael has a conscience . despite what everyone in his life was telling him to do , which was to keep his mouth shut , he wanted to take responsibility for his actions , which he did . judge carroll : after you forced his hand . dante : you need to understand the strength it took for michael to go up against sonny , a man he grew up idolizing , and tell the truth at all . michael did the right thing . i 'm asking you to do the same thing and show him a little compassion . [ scene_break ] michael : maybe lulu 's right to worry . i mean , dante did go to jail for tryin ' to get morgan off the witness stand at dad 's trial . who knows how far he 'll go to get me released ? even if it 's only to clear his conscience . jason : look , i 'm all for dante usin ' any pull he has to get you out of here . do not mistake his guilt for loyalty , because when it comes down to helping you or his badge , he 's gon na make the same decision every single time . nothing is more important to him than being a cop . michael : yeah , but dante lied in court about how he got shot . i mean , he swore under oath that the gun went off by accident , right ? jason : mm - hmm . michael : so if he cares about being a cop so much , why would he risk his job to protect dad ? jason : because i think he was actually protecting the case he built against sonny for killing claudia . now , see , your dad may wan na believe it was something more , that some switch flipped in dante when he heard that sonny was his father . but if anything , i think it actually made dante wan na prove the opposite , that the badge that he carries makes him a better man than sonny . michael : yeah , whether dante 's a cop or not , dad 'll still want him in his life . jason : you 're right about that . family is very important to your father . all the lies , all the betrayal of dante , it does n't matter , because once sonny found out that dante was his son , he loved him . michael : yeah , dad always trusted dante more than he trusted me . at least , with the business . i mean , he was grooming dante to take over , jason , a guy he 's only known for 3 months . i did n't get it before , but i get it now . i mean , even then , dad had this connection to dante . jason : you know your father loves you . michael : yeah . jason : i mean , you 're as much his son as dante and morgan , michael . michael : ah , you see what the difference is dad sees dante as a man . to him , i am just a kid who he needs to protect . [ scene_break ] sonny : are you gon na come at me through my daughter , exploiting her fears by makin ' me look like some kind of monster ? puttin ' your hands all over her ? that goes way beyond disrespect . kristina : johnny 's not doing anything wrong . sonny : johnny , johnny , do me a favor . let go of that hand . johnny : okay , but it is a public street , sonny , so i can hold her hand if i want . hell , i can do a lot more than that . sonny : she 's 17 . johnny : which is the legal age of consent in the state of new york . however far we take this does not concern you . sonny : car 's out there , okay ? just wait for me . kristina : i 'm not leaving johnny . sonny : i want you to go in the car right now . kristina : no ! i 'm sick and tired of you trying to run my life . why ca n't you just let me be happy ? sonny : with him ? ! kristina : at least i know johnny would never hurt me . sonny : johnny is using you , sweetheart . he wants me to suffer . he could care less if he hurts you . you think that 's a decent guy ? you should be with -- you deserve somebody better . let me take you home , please . [ scene_break ] maya : how did you pay for this ? ethan : you know , i do all right . maya : oh , is that why you 're ripping off the quartermaines ? ethan : well , see , i bought this place with profits from a big win , all right , and i sunk pretty much every dime into it . i was hoping my luck would hold , but i wanted a little insurance , you know ? maya : hmm . here 's a thought . do n't live above your means . ethan : oh , come on . where 's the fun in that ? i mean , we get one shot at this life , right ? why not make it as sweet as possible ? maya : hmm . ethan : you want some wine ? maya : got any red ? ethan : i 'll go check . maya : something wrong with that bottle ? [ scene_break ] dante : sonny 's a compelling force . for michael to go up against him like that took guts . i know grown men who would n't dare defy sonny 's wishes . imagine how tough it was for his own son to go up against him in open court , no less . judge carroll : the fact is that michael committed a crime , several if the continued cover - up is taken into consideration . now , he needs to learn there are consequences to his actions . dante : he just got the crap beat out of him by some sick freak who found his way into his cell . how 's that for consequences ? judge carroll : i appreciate your outrage , detective falconeri , but i suggest you direct it somewhere else . i 'm only trying to help michael . dante : yeah , by letting him rot . he 's young , vulnerable , the kind of kid that prison 'll destroy . where 's the justice in that ? judge carroll : i never said it was a perfect system . prison is full of sad stories and bad choices , but the law is the law . dante : the law 's supposed to help people , not inflict wounds so deep that they never have any chance of healing . judge carroll : what would you have me do , detective falconeri ? you 've already pointed out how compelling sonny corinthos is . if i release him , he 'll run back to his father and a life of crime , and where would be the justice in that ? [ scene_break ] sonny : i 'm sure johnny understands you , right , he knows , you know , what you 're going ' through , how you feel . but it 's an act . do n't buy into it . kristina : johnny understands me better than anyone . he had to watch his sister go through the same thing that i went through ... sonny : same thing that you went -- kristina : because of you . sonny : oh , really ? the same thing you went through ? i never raised a hand to claudia . johnny : no , you just beat her down emotionally until she finally broke , made her feel so bad about herself she eventually got desperate and crazy . sonny : your sister was crazy before i ever married her . you wan na blame somebody , blame your family tree . your dad was as crazy as it comes . kristina : do you even hear yourself ? claudia 's dead , and you 're still degrading her . sonny : johnny -- johnny knows that you 're vulnerable , and he 's using what happened with kiefer to make it look like that 's what i did to his sister , honey . johnny : i did n't make her think anything . she 's seen your temper firsthand . sonny : johnny is playing you , okay ? this is not a game . you 're dealing with a dangerous man . you should n't be anywhere near him . kristina : you act like you 're so much better than johnny , but you 're not . he 's a gangster , and so are you . he 's obsessed with money and power , and guess what . so are you . there 's one huge difference , dad . johnny knows how to treat a woman . sonny : you 're a teenage girl . he 's a grown man . this is sick . he should know better . johnny : in the eyes of the state of new york , we 're both consenting adults . kristina : i wan na be with johnny , and if you do n't like it , too bad . sonny : this is n't over . kristina : told you it 'd work .

[ scene_break ] dante : you sent michael to prison so he would learn to respect the law and see that no one , not even the great sonny corinthos is above it . judge carroll : your point ? dante : sonny did everything he could to beat the system -- obstructing justice , tampering with evidence , conspiracy to cover it up . you suspend michael 's sentence , he 'll see that it 's okay to trust the system . he 'll see that telling the truth , doing the right thing , no matter what the cost , pays off in the end . he knows the difference between right and wrong , good and bad . i mean , if the point of all of this was to see justice served , would n't it be justice to give this kid a better chance at life instead of destroying him completely ? is n't that the real lesson you wanted for him ? judge carroll : if i did release michael , there would need to be certain restrictions in place . dante : your honor , whatever you want . i mean , electronic monitoring , daily therapy , whatever you want , i guarantee you it 'll happen .

[ scene_break ] jason : i got an update on the balkan . he 's targeting luke . sonny : how did luke get involved ? jason : actually , it has nothing to do with brenda at all . lucky 's actually working undercover in ireland trying to find out the balkan 's identity . i guess interpol recruited him because he looks like this guy ronan o'reilly , who works for the balkan . but lucky got himself in a tight spot and luke got involved . sonny : did they find out who the balkan is ? jason : no . but luke said he 's gon na pass on any information . sonny : we need to talk about brenda . jason : was she okay when you went back ? sonny : i went to see her and , uh -- there 's something going on with her . and i thought i could help ... but then i realized that i 'm the one doing this to her .

[ clears throat ] actually , she 's ... nicole and daniel 's child . maggie , she 's your granddaughter . maggie : [ gasps ] nicole : daniel ! oh ! i know this is a dream . or maybe i 'm just crazy . i think a lot of people would bet on crazy , but ... i 'm gon na go with a dream . oh , i wish i could dream about you every night when i go to sleep . so i ... i guess you know we have a baby . daniel : i do . nicole : oh , wow . daniel , i just remembered . when i dreamed about you before , that 's what you were trying to tell me . when you said you would always be with me , you were trying to tell me about our little girl . daniel : holly . nicole : yes ! daniel : yes . nicole : oh , god , to hear you say that , that 's amazing ! i never thought i 'd hear you -- do you like it ? do you like her name ? daniel : it 's terrific . it suits her to a t . nicole : yeah . you know , you need to be more specific , mister . you know , you -- you said that i should move on and you 'd always be with me , but you never mentioned anything about holly . because if you did , i could have saved myself a lot of trouble . daniel : hey , do n't worry . do not worry . everything is gon na be just fine . nicole : that 's easy for you to say . chloe has lawyered up , and she is suing for custody . and look at me . i 'm barely out of handcuffs . that 's really gon na go over well in the courts , right ? and plus , chloe 's just gon na flash that smile of hers and tell the judge what a wonderful job she 's done raising parker . and then the judge is just gon na give her holly -- daniel : okay , nicole ? nicole , hey . i trust you . i trust in you . because i know you . you are gon na do whatever it takes to get our little girl back . and you will . steve : that 's it . i agree with rafe . not cool for shane to keep us waiting . rafe : exactly . it 's been over an hour . steve : i think i better go try to track him down . shane : do n't bother . i 'm here . sorry to keep you waiting , but i 've been working round the clock , and i think you 'll agree it was worth it . marlena : oh , it 's so good to see you . rafe : finally . steve : glad you could make it , governor . kayla : what have you got ? shane : good news , i think . you know that surveillance we had on those two houses stefano owns ? well , it 's just paid off . [ dramatic music ] nicole : daniel , i know you want me to be strong and have faith and all that , but this is ... this is bad . i stabbed a guy -- in public , with witnesses . it 's like i 'm old - school nicole again . i mean , do you see what i 've become without you here to ground me ? i could go on trial for murder if this guy dies . daniel : hey , no one is saying it 's not serious , but you -- you have been in tight spots before . you 'll get through this . nicole : i wish i knew how . daniel : you love holly . you want to be with her , raise her , be a mother to our little girl . that 's your motivation . you will fight , and you will win . nicole : i do love her . and i want to be there for her , always , and watch her grow up . but , daniel , you were supposed to be here to help . daniel : you will do great without me . i know you . you have so much love inside of you , so much strength . and do n't forget , i will always be looking out for you . nicole : i know . i know . that means so much to me . daniel : i will also be looking out for our little girl and watching her grow up , beautiful , kind , funny -- like her mom . nicole : no . i want her to be like you , not me . daniel : okay , how about if -- if she 's like both of us , hmm ? but mostly ... like holly , like herself . nicole : that sounds perfect . daniel : okay . nicole : oh , daniel , i wish you could be here with me all the time and not just in my dreams . [ sobs ] daniel : you remember this , okay ? my heart will always be with you ... and also with our daughter . [ door clatters ] nicole : brady . brady : you okay ? nicole : yeah . yeah . brady : you 've been crying . nicole : i know . but it was just , uh ... it was just a dream . brady : well , hey , i got some news that might cheer you up . dna results came back , and holly is definitely yours and daniel 's , proof positive . now , justin is ready to go to court . you ready for a fight ? [ soft music ] nicole : [ sighs ] chloe : and nicole had pretty much come to terms with the idea that she could never conceive . but every time she talked about not being able to have a child , i just saw such sadness in her eyes that one day , i just made a suggestion . maggie : in vitro , and you would be the surrogate . chloe : right . convincing daniel was a whole other thing . victor : i 'll bet it was . maggie : no . he knew how much nicole wanted to be a mom . and he 'd do anything to make her happy . chloe : yeah . so we went ahead , and we did it , but it did n't work . we were all really disappointed , but i guess we should n't have been . the odds are never very high that it works . anyway , they said that i could try again anytime that i felt like i was ready , and i was planning on trying again when they were on their honeymoon in february , but then ... victor : daniel died . chloe : yeah . nicole was so heartbroken that we never talked about a baby again . then when i saw her again in may , she just -- she looked so sad and alone , and i - i got the idea that maybe i could help keep a part of him alive for her . maggie : for all of us . deimos : yeah , but you see , the problem is that chloe kept the whole thing secret , even after she came to realize that she was indeed carrying nicole and daniel 's child . chloe : you know , i do n't regret for one minute keeping this a secret . the idea of you being anywhere near holly or parker is revolting . you are nothing but an evil -- victor : chloe , nobody cares what you think about deimos . seriously . you dare to judge him or anyone else after the kind of life you 've led ? maggie : victor ! victor : you had no right keeping that secret ! maggie : victor ! chloe : you know how much i value your opinion , victor . victor : you were nothing but an incubator . you are not the child 's mother ! chloe : wrong . i carried this beautiful girl . i love her like she 's my own . victor : oh , you do n't love anyone . you 're incapable . maggie : victor , stop ! chloe : that is not true . i 'm a damn good mother , victor . parker is a happy , well - adjusted little boy because of me . deimos : oh , you know what ? that 's so touching , chloe , but now that we have indisputable proof that holly is not your child , i 'm sorry , but i 'm not all that moved by your love for her , and i 'm sure as hell no one else is either ... chloe : just shut the hell up , okay ? deimos : especially considering the fact that her real mother is alive and well , ready to give her heart and soul to her daughter , this woman 's granddaughter , who , in spite of all your pathetic protestations to the contrary , is not your child ! chloe : i brought her into this world . deimos : all right , well , now it 's time for you give her up ! chloe : the hell i will . i 'm suing for full custody . [ dramatic music ] shane : the agents in place thought i was nuts . i had them glued to those two houses stefano dimera owns . i 'm sorry , i should say the houses rudolfo owns . and paul was a godsend . he helped me go through all the security cameras in the area . and i 'm talking hours and hours of tape . rafe : okay , but what did you get ? is there anything that we can use ? shane : well , how does a couple of dozen photographs of the man we think might be stefano dimera sound ? rafe : um , well , that sounds great , if it 's him and if we can prove it , because that 's the only way we can get a search warrant . steve : hey , hey , hold on , buddy . just wait till you see the isa 's facial recognition program . kayla : well , do we have to go somewhere to see it ? shane : nope , it 's all right here . it 's an isa program . it 's highly classified but pretty neat all the same . you want to take a look ? steve : okay . finally gon na see if the phoenix really did rise from the ashes ... one more time . shane : all right , ready ? here we go . brady : hey . hey , you 're not gon na go to -- go to pieces on me , are you ? i mean , this is good news . nicole : i know . i know . it 's ... it 's just that this is , uh ... wow , this is overwhelming . when chloe admitted that holly was mine , it 's not that i did n't believe her , because i did . but i was just thinking how many times i came close to being a mother and i failed . i just got used to it . i did n't trust that it could be true . i was waiting for the other shoe to drop , like it always did . [ laughs softly ] but dna , absolute proof -- i mean not just for the whole world but for me -- i mean , i did n't realize how much i needed to hear that . brady : now you understand why deimos and i did n't tell you right away , because if -- if i told you that holly was yours and then the dna came back another way -- nicole : i know , okay ? i know you only did that because you cared . i get that now , brady . i do . and it was because of you -- especially you . you knew . you knew that it would tear me apart if i thought holly was mine and then to have her taken away from me . and i 'm sorry . i 'm ... i am so sorry that i was angry with you at first . brady : stop . no , no , no . there 's no need to apologize to me . i get it . i do . nicole : i am so grateful . i am ... i am so grateful now , especially for this amazing gift that daniel and i have been given . it 's a miracle . it is such a miracle . brady : it 's a total miracle . i love it . it is . yes . nicole : so where 's holly now ? brady : she 's with chloe , nicole . chloe 's legally her mother . until we get that birth certificate declared null and void , that 's the way it is . nicole : i am so furious with chloe for taking matters into her own hands and getting impregnated with my child without my knowledge . but if she had n't , holly would n't be alive , and that 's all that matters now . brady : justin is ready to sue for custody . nicole : so you mean until the courts go through god knows how many pages and hearings and testimonies , holly 's gon na be with chloe ? brady : sorry . yeah . nicole : [ sighs ] that ca n't happen , brady . it ca n't . i need to be with her . i need to be with my baby ! [ crying ] victor : chloe , for once in your life , try not to be an idiot . maggie : victor ! victor : you do n't have a leg to stand on . dna , remember ? you are not the mother ! chloe : i 'm daniel 's ex - wife . victor : what the hell has that got to do with anything ? chloe : i 'm the mother of his son , who 's holly 's half brother . oh , and on her birth certificate , where it says `` mother , `` they put `` chloe lane . `` add that to the fact that nicole is being charged with attempted murder , i think the court will see things my way . deimos : are you really willing to go through all of this just so that i ca n't be near holly ? chloe : or parker or me . deimos : even if that means that your best friend , nicole , the mother of this child , will be legally forced to stay away from her as well ? chloe : as long as you 're hanging around . maybe you should make that fresh start you tried to sell me on . victor : oh , you stupid twit . your case will be tossed in a heartbeat . secretly having someone else 's child implanted in you -- chloe : there was nothing secret . i had daniel and nicole 's written permission to try anytime . i 've done nothing wrong . ma'am , i 'm heading back to the station now . remember , do n't leave town . victor : `` do n't leave town . `` oh - ho - ho ! now , that 's not the kind of advice police give to somebody who has n't done anything wrong . of course , you do n't care about the courts . chloe : i 'm so glad i 'm being lectured on morals by you two . victor : you do n't have a snowball 's chance in hell , woman . why do n't you just figure out what 's right and then do it for a change ? oh , no . no , no , no . you 'd rather play mother of all mothers , protecting a baby that 's not even yours just so you can stick it to deimos . maggie : victor , be quiet . chloe , i 'd like a moment with you ... and my granddaughter . chloe : maggie , i know this came out of the blue , and i thank you for shutting victor down , but there 's a reason why i -- maggie : no , no , no . never mind all that now . first things first . may i ... may i hold holly ? chloe : yeah , of course . here you go , grandma . here . maggie : hi ! chloe : got her ? maggie : well , hello . [ speaking indistinctly ] how are you ? oh , you 're so tiny . chloe : take her out of that . maggie : there you go . chloe : yeah . maggie : and you 're so perfect . chloe : let 's take that off . maggie : oh , yes . i can see daniel 's eyes . you are just amazing . yes , you are . chloe : yeah , she is , is n't she ? maggie : here you go . hi ! chloe : i would give anything for daniel to be able to see her even for just a minute . maggie : well , you 'd have plenty of company . i miss him every day . but when i hold this little one and see that chin and those eyes ... [ holly fussing ] maggie : why are you doing this , chloe ? why are keeping holly to yourself ? i just do n't -- it does n't make any sense to me . chloe : i thought i was being clear . it 's not about me keeping her for myself . it 's about keeping her away from deimos . that man is evil . there 's no other way to put it . maggie : you think he would hurt her ? chloe : well , maybe not physically or directly , but people -- people get hurt in the deimos sphere of influence . and even if she managed to avoid that at first , there 's no way that holly 's not gon na be poisoned by who he is , what he is , his anger , his lack of morals . maggie : [ shushing ] chloe : there 's no way that i 'm gon na let a child that i brought into this world be anywhere near that . come on , maggie , you of all people should understand me . you know what deimos is like . you were paralyzed because of him . do you really want him raising your granddaughter ? maggie : i 've made peace with deimos . and it 's easy to see how much he loves nicole . but that 's not what 's important here . chloe ... a child should be brought up by its mother . chloe : maggie , normally i would agree with you , but in this instance , no . deimos is dangerous , and as long as nicole is with him , i 'm keeping this baby . deimos : i ca n't believe that twisted bitch . [ exhales sharply ] i really need to stay calm . victor : you certainly do . you know , i can understand your having dark thoughts about that minx . she is still at the top of her game when it comes to making men unhappy . deimos : believe me , i 'm doing my best to be patient . victor : just keep at it . in the end , you 'll win . remember , daniel is my godson , so i 've got a stake in this . deimos : i 'll take whatever help i can get . victor : then we both have the same goal . that child will be raised a kiriakis . nicole : i 'm not gon na let this get to me , brady . i - i 'm not , okay ? seriously . i mean , i ... i have the facts on my side . brady : dna does n't lie . nicole : bingo . holly is mine , not chloe 's . and any judge in his right mind would see that and give me my baby . brady : look at you , being all rational and calm . it 's great . nicole : daniel would want that . brady : yes , he would . so good for you . nicole : good for me . brady : good for you . nicole : oh . i 'm lucky . i 'm lucky to have someone looking out for me .

[ dramatic music ] shane : the agents in place thought i was nuts . i had them glued to those two houses stefano dimera owns . i 'm sorry , i should say the houses rudolfo owns . and paul was a godsend . he helped me go through all the security cameras in the area . and i 'm talking hours and hours of tape . rafe : okay , but what did you get ? is there anything that we can use ? shane : well , how does a couple of dozen photographs of the man we think might be stefano dimera sound ? rafe : um , well , that sounds great , if it 's him and if we can prove it , because that 's the only way we can get a search warrant . steve : hey , hey , hold on , buddy . just wait till you see the isa 's facial recognition program . kayla : well , do we have to go somewhere to see it ? shane : nope , it 's all right here . it 's an isa program . it 's highly classified but pretty neat all the same . you want to take a look ? steve : okay . finally gon na see if the phoenix really did rise from the ashes ... one more time . shane : all right , ready ? here we go . brady : hey . hey , you 're not gon na go to -- go to pieces on me , are you ? i mean , this is good news . nicole : i know . i know . it 's ... it 's just that this is , uh ... wow , this is overwhelming . when chloe admitted that holly was mine , it 's not that i did n't believe her , because i did . but i was just thinking how many times i came close to being a mother and i failed . i just got used to it . i did n't trust that it could be true . i was waiting for the other shoe to drop , like it always did . [ laughs softly ] but dna , absolute proof -- i mean not just for the whole world but for me -- i mean , i did n't realize how much i needed to hear that . brady : now you understand why deimos and i did n't tell you right away , because if -- if i told you that holly was yours and then the dna came back another way -- nicole : i know , okay ? i know you only did that because you cared . i get that now , brady . i do . and it was because of you -- especially you . you knew . you knew that it would tear me apart if i thought holly was mine and then to have her taken away from me . and i 'm sorry . i 'm ... i am so sorry that i was angry with you at first . brady : stop . no , no , no . there 's no need to apologize to me . i get it . i do . nicole : i am so grateful . i am ... i am so grateful now , especially for this amazing gift that daniel and i have been given . it 's a miracle . it is such a miracle . brady : it 's a total miracle . i love it . it is . yes . nicole : so where 's holly now ? brady : she 's with chloe , nicole . chloe 's legally her mother . until we get that birth certificate declared null and void , that 's the way it is . nicole : i am so furious with chloe for taking matters into her own hands and getting impregnated with my child without my knowledge . but if she had n't , holly would n't be alive , and that 's all that matters now . brady : justin is ready to sue for custody . nicole : so you mean until the courts go through god knows how many pages and hearings and testimonies , holly 's gon na be with chloe ? brady : sorry . yeah . nicole : [ sighs ] that ca n't happen , brady . it ca n't . i need to be with her . i need to be with my baby ! [ crying ] victor : chloe , for once in your life , try not to be an idiot . maggie : victor ! victor : you do n't have a leg to stand on . dna , remember ? you are not the mother ! chloe : i 'm daniel 's ex - wife . victor : what the hell has that got to do with anything ? chloe : i 'm the mother of his son , who 's holly 's half brother . oh , and on her birth certificate , where it says `` mother , `` they put `` chloe lane . `` add that to the fact that nicole is being charged with attempted murder , i think the court will see things my way . deimos : are you really willing to go through all of this just so that i ca n't be near holly ? chloe : or parker or me . deimos : even if that means that your best friend , nicole , the mother of this child , will be legally forced to stay away from her as well ? chloe : as long as you 're hanging around . maybe you should make that fresh start you tried to sell me on . victor : oh , you stupid twit . your case will be tossed in a heartbeat . secretly having someone else 's child implanted in you -- chloe : there was nothing secret . i had daniel and nicole 's written permission to try anytime . i 've done nothing wrong . ma'am , i 'm heading back to the station now . remember , do n't leave town . victor : `` do n't leave town . `` oh - ho - ho ! now , that 's not the kind of advice police give to somebody who has n't done anything wrong . of course , you do n't care about the courts . chloe : i 'm so glad i 'm being lectured on morals by you two . victor : you do n't have a snowball 's chance in hell , woman . why do n't you just figure out what 's right and then do it for a change ? oh , no . no , no , no . you 'd rather play mother of all mothers , protecting a baby that 's not even yours just so you can stick it to deimos . maggie : victor , be quiet . chloe , i 'd like a moment with you ... and my granddaughter . chloe : maggie , i know this came out of the blue , and i thank you for shutting victor down , but there 's a reason why i -- maggie : no , no , no . never mind all that now . first things first . may i ... may i hold holly ? chloe : yeah , of course . here you go , grandma . here . maggie : hi ! chloe : got her ? maggie : well , hello . [ speaking indistinctly ] how are you ? oh , you 're so tiny . chloe : take her out of that . maggie : there you go . chloe : yeah . maggie : and you 're so perfect . chloe : let 's take that off . maggie : oh , yes . i can see daniel 's eyes . you are just amazing . yes , you are . chloe : yeah , she is , is n't she ? maggie : here you go . hi ! chloe : i would give anything for daniel to be able to see her even for just a minute . maggie : well , you 'd have plenty of company . i miss him every day . but when i hold this little one and see that chin and those eyes ... [ holly fussing ] maggie : why are you doing this , chloe ? why are keeping holly to yourself ? i just do n't -- it does n't make any sense to me . chloe : i thought i was being clear . it 's not about me keeping her for myself . it 's about keeping her away from deimos . that man is evil . there 's no other way to put it . maggie : you think he would hurt her ? chloe : well , maybe not physically or directly , but people -- people get hurt in the deimos sphere of influence . and even if she managed to avoid that at first , there 's no way that holly 's not gon na be poisoned by who he is , what he is , his anger , his lack of morals . maggie : [ shushing ] chloe : there 's no way that i 'm gon na let a child that i brought into this world be anywhere near that . come on , maggie , you of all people should understand me . you know what deimos is like . you were paralyzed because of him . do you really want him raising your granddaughter ? maggie : i 've made peace with deimos . and it 's easy to see how much he loves nicole . but that 's not what 's important here . chloe ... a child should be brought up by its mother . chloe : maggie , normally i would agree with you , but in this instance , no . deimos is dangerous , and as long as nicole is with him , i 'm keeping this baby . deimos : i ca n't believe that twisted bitch . [ exhales sharply ] i really need to stay calm . victor : you certainly do . you know , i can understand your having dark thoughts about that minx . she is still at the top of her game when it comes to making men unhappy . deimos : believe me , i 'm doing my best to be patient . victor : just keep at it . in the end , you 'll win . remember , daniel is my godson , so i 've got a stake in this . deimos : i 'll take whatever help i can get . victor : then we both have the same goal . that child will be raised a kiriakis . nicole : i 'm not gon na let this get to me , brady . i - i 'm not , okay ? seriously . i mean , i ... i have the facts on my side . brady : dna does n't lie . nicole : bingo . holly is mine , not chloe 's . and any judge in his right mind would see that and give me my baby . brady : look at you , being all rational and calm . it 's great . nicole : daniel would want that . brady : yes , he would . so good for you . nicole : good for me . brady : good for you . nicole : oh . i 'm lucky . i 'm lucky to have someone looking out for me .

devon : all right . here we go . neil : [ slurring ] hey . hey ! i did n't need any help ! devon : okay . neil : i did n't need a ride ! oh . devon : i was n't gon na let you drive in your condition . neil : yeah , well , you did n't take me to where i needed to go . you know , i needed -- i needed to go to the police station . devon : no , no . all right , i know you 're upset about what happened . neil : oh , yeah . i -- i am . i 'm angry and i 'm upset . you would be upset , too , if you did what i did . devon : just sit down and i 'll make you a cup of coffee , all right ? neil : no ! devon : hey , hey , hey . neil : i do n't want any coffee , and i 'm not gon na sit down . you hear me ? i -- i need to go to the police station . devon : you need to sober up before you do anything . neil : i got to make a confession . hilary : a confession to what ? christine : what do you mean there 's not gon na be a trial ? paul : chris -- christine : of course there is . phyllis is guilty and i 'm gon na prove it . no , she 's not gon na get away with it , not this time . kelly is going to tell a jury what she 's already reported . kelly : i ca n't . [ clears throat ] christine : why not ? kelly : i lied . paul : about what ? kelly : everything . switching the hotel rooms , phyllis poisoning me , sleeping with jack that night the underground collapsed . everything . paul : why ? kelly : i was just so desperate to hang onto jack . so i made it all up , hoping that he would ... turn against phyllis and to me . phyllis : oh , my god . christine : i do n't believe you . you were n't lying before . why are you changing your story ? paul : is somebody threatening you ? abby : i know that you would like nothing more than to go blab this to everyone . to go be gossip girl . and you know what ? i do n't care . i 've been trotted out to the press for a lot worse than this , but think about summer . think about what you 're handing to the police . it 's motive , it 's -- it 's -- it 's the perfect motive . summer killed austin because he was cheating on her . mariah : or it 's the perfect motive for you to have killed him , because he would n't leave her . summer : you slept with my husband ! [ door opens ] mariah : reliving the good memories ? abby : memories , but not the good ones . mariah : well , i 'm sure you could pay someone with your millions to take all the bad ones away and fill your head with sunshine and daffodils . abby : oh , god , mariah , i do n't want to do this tonight . what are you doing here ? mariah : i could ask you the same question . abby : this is my family 's cabin . mariah : leave it to the disgustingly rich to have places to have their disgusting affairs with other people 's husbands . abby : it 's none of your business why i 'm here . mariah : i know exactly why you 're here . abby : and why is that ? mariah : you 're returning to the scene of the crime . summer : can you believe abby ? `` i 'll do everything i can to make it up to you . `` she slept with my husband ! how does she think she can make that up to me ? kyle : why do n't i get us some coffee ? summer : god , i just hate that i let her get to me like this . kyle : well , then , stop it . look , you have every right to be angry at abby , but you ca n't let it consume you . it 's not healthy , summer . summer : yeah , that 's really easy for you to say . you did n't just find out that your dead husband was having an af ... fair . kyle : what 's wrong ? christine : so that has to be it . you 're saying phyllis is innocent because you 're being intimidated . paul : if someone is pressuring you to change your story , that is a felony . christine : i 'll prosecute whoever 's threatening you . kelly : no , n - no one is forcing me to do anything . i have been lying and i ca n't do it anymore . christine : there has to be more to it . paul : kelly , you really need to think about what you 're saying right now , because you could be opening yourself up to criminal charges . christine : and then i would prosecute you to the fullest extent of the law . kelly : i know what i 'm doing . christine : someone got to you and convinced you that this was a good idea , but whoever it was , they were not thinking about your best interest . you have to look out for yourself ! kelly : i am . christine : oh , damn it . you ca n't do this ! kelly : no , i have to ! do n't you understand ? i can not live like this . i hate the person that i have become . i 'm this desperate , pathetic woman willing to do anything to hang onto him ? i 'm disgusted by myself . i am ashamed of what i have done and who i have become , and the only way to truly make things right is to tell the truth . i have to tell you everything . i have to tell you what i did . jack : kelly , stop ! not another word . neil : it 's you ! it 's my wife , the cheater ! what are you doing here ? hilary : i just came to pack up my things . devon : well , you should have called neil before just showing up here . neil : oh , yeah . you should have called . devon : hey , hey . let 's sit down . let 's sit down . come on . hilary : yeah , well , i thought you guys would want me gone as soon as possible . i was just trying to make it easy for everyone . devon : yeah . 'cause you care so much about neil and me . hilary : i 'll just get the rest of my things and go . devon : great . neil : no . i 'm going . i 'm going to jail . hilary : what do you mean you 're going to jail ? neil : i do n't -- i do n't want to go -- devon : neil 's life is no longer any of your business . hilary : legally , i 'm still his wife . so if neil 's in trouble with the police , i could be affected . devon : just as self - serving as ever . hilary : what did you do ? devon : he married a woman whose lies border on sociopathic is what he did . hilary : yeah , you can keep thinking that , but fooling the two of you -- that was just easy . devon : just take what you came for and get out . please . i 'll have someone send the rest of your stuff . actually , hang on a second . leave your key . hilary : not until you tell me what 's going on . mariah : yeah , i got the text . abby got it , too . we 're here at the cabin together . [ chuckling ] oh , yeah . it 's going wonderful . we 're talking about boys , braiding each other 's hair . all right . i 'll see you soon . kevin , noah , and courtney got the same text from summer asking them to meet her here , so they 're pulling up now . abby : i wonder why summer would want to see all of us . mariah : maybe she thought of some heinous way to punish you for sleeping with her husband . a good tar and feathering , my guess . abby : mariah , what are you doing here ? you never did say . mariah : i forgot my scarf . abby : you drove all the way up here to pick up a scarf ? mariah : see , that 's just like you one - percenters . you leave things here , there , discard them altogether . real people have to hold onto their belongings because you ca n't just go to fenmore 's and buy another one . abby : are you following me ? mariah : are you doing something worth following ? abby : probably not . and not that i owe you an explanation , but i feel terrible about what i did to summer , so i came up here to apologize to her . mariah : how 'd that go ? abby : she slapped me and tore out . mariah : wow , i did n't think snowflake had it in her . way to go . abby : but something must have happened for her to come all the way back here .

[ sighs ] i k -- i killed a baby . [ sighs ] kelly : jack , i know what i 'm doing . jack : if you did , you would not be talking to paul and christine without a lawyer . christine : confessing to something you did n't do is a serious crime . kelly : i 'm telling the truth . jack : kelly . christine : you 're lying ! i do n't know why you are suddenly willing to take the fall for phyllis . i 'm not gon na allow it . paul : chris ... i need a word with you in private . christine : i am not gon na let phyllis get away with this . i know she 's behind it . paul : look , i did n't want you to push up phyllis ' trial , but i know why you did it . you wanted to focus on something other than ... what happened . christine : that 's not why . paul : yes , it is , and i understand . i do , chris . but you ca n't let your emotions cloud your judgment . christine : my judgment is not being clouded . something is not right here . kelly : i just want the truth to come out . jack : so do i . you have to be careful what you say to the police ! kelly : you do n't have to worry about what happens to me , jack . i just want you to know why i did what i did . phyllis : because you 're a lunatic . kelly : no . everything i did , everything that i am doing now ... i did because i love you , jack . jack : kelly . kelly : no , no , i know you do n't love me that you used to , but you did once . you loved me . and you brought such happiness to my life . and i will always be grateful to you for that . it 's really important for you to know the person who did those things is not the person that you fell in love with . i changed because you broke up with me . phyllis : so you made it look like i 'm the one who tried to kill you ? you want to make that a reality ? ! phyllis : jack , let go of me . jack : not till you calm down . phyllis : i am calm . i lost a year of my life . when i woke up from that coma , i needed my fiancé more than ever . and he needed me , and he wanted me . kelly : i know that ! i knew the minute that you walked into the church that i could n't compete with you for a place in jack 's life . it was written all over his face ! phyllis : yeah , but you tried to get me out of the way . and tried to convince him i was a jealous psycho who tried to kill you ? kelly : i 'm sorry . phyllis : `` i 'm sorry `` ? `` i 'm sorry `` ? after everything you did to me -- you see , i 'm gon na make you pay . because you 're a crazy bitch . jack : phyllis . kelly : no , it 's okay . she 's right . i should be punished for what i did , and if it 's any consolation , i 'm already in my own personal hell . phyllis : and i hope you stay there . because i 'm gon na tell you something . if you do n't think that is enough , i am going to make sure that you rot in jail . do you hear me ? jack : phyllis . phyllis : you will be locked up for days in that jail ! jack : stop it ! phyllis : why are you defending her ? ! kelly : jack -- jack : kelly ! christine : oh , my god . jack : kelly ? paul : what happened ? christine : can we get some water ? jack : i do n't know . she just passed out . kelly ? kelly ? kelly . noah : it 's funny how kyle went after abby considering how he felt about what she did to summer . kevin : what ? you do n't believe what he said about all us needing to stick together ? noah : i do n't believe anything kyle says . courtney : yeah , but he 's done a pretty good job taking care of summer these past couple days . noah : i think it 's weird that he showed up right before austin turned up dead . summer : he came to tell me about austin and abby 's affair . noah : that 's what he said . summer : i do n't think that kyle is the one that we should be suspicious of . i 'm sure that he 's out there right now trying to get abby to admit that she 's the one that sent those messages . courtney : no , whoever 's responsible for these messages is trying to control us through fear . abby does n't fit that profile . summer : she slept with my husband ! courtney : which makes her dishonest and selfish . but not pathological . mariah : i happen to agree with detective blondie . abby 's a cheater , but she 's not devious . kevin : so that leaves all of us and our possible mystery watcher . noah : well , let 's not forget about fen . i mean , i still think it 's kind of convenient he took off right after austin was found dead . kevin : he did n't want to miss his classes . look , he 's just getting his life back together . mariah : i 'm sorry , was drugging us part of his rehab ? summer : fen did n't mean to hurt anybody . i know him . mariah : you also thought you knew austin . kevin : mariah . mariah : no , i 'm not trying to be mean . i 'm just saying that summer is the worst judge of men ever . summer : you could n't even get a guy who was willing to cheat on his wife to do it with you . mariah : if i wanted your husband , i could have had him . summer : yeah , that 's why he was sleeping with abby and not you , right ? mariah : i was n't married to him . summer : no , you were n't . you were just lost in some plato sphere fantasy about you and austin . kevin : hey , it 's not that kind of fan fiction . summer : no , you 're the one that 's probably sending those messages , trying to scare us into keeping quiet ! mariah : i 'm sorry , are you pointing the finger at me ? noah : everybody just take it easy , okay ? mariah : no , she ca n't accuse me like that . for all we know , she 's the one sending the messages . she 's involved in some post - murder crackup . summer : shut up ! mariah : or maybe she 's just trying to get back at all of us for knowing about austin and abby 's fair and keeping it a secret . summer : you -- kevin : okay , okay ! stop it ! noah : stop , stop , stop ! kyle : you should n't have driven off like that . abby : why 'd you come after me ? if you 're here to tell me what a cheap tramp i am , do n't bother . i already got the message when summer slapped me . kyle : she has ever right to be upset , cuz . abby : i know . but i ca n't be in the line of fire for the rest of my life because i made one mistake . kyle : look , you and austin hooking up -- those things happen . summer 's young . she 's ... all wrapped up in this . it 's still fresh to her . abby : i hate what i did to summer . once it started , i tried to stop , but i ca n't . i could n't . i - i 'm a horrible person . kyle : it 's like you said , abs , you made a mistake . i know you did n't mean to hurt summer . abby : i really did n't . kyle : you were just in too deep , and when austin died ... you were at a total loss . you did n't know what to do with all that grief and anger . that 's why you wrote those messages . abby : what ? kyle : it 's okay . you can tell me . abby : i did n't do it . you saw the shade of lipstick on the mirror . would that be anything i would ever be associated with ? but summer does n't believe me , so she sent you here to get me to confess . kyle : no , this was all my idea . abby : i can not believe that you would manipulate me this way . kyle : come on . look , i -- [ sighs ] i 'm just looking for answers , okay ? we all are . abby : and you all think that i wrote those messages ? you all probably think that i killed austin , too . it would n't surprise me if summer was with the police right now , pointing the finger at me . the mistress with a motive . well , you know what ? maybe i 'll go to paul myself and tell him exactly what happened . kyle : oh , come on , abby . no one 's going to the cops . we all need to just stick to our story . abby : from what i saw at the cabin , it looks like every man and woman for herself . kyle : abby . [ sighs ] summer : let me at her ! mariah : i know you slapped abby . why do n't you try that with me and see what happens ? ! noah : mariah , knock it off ! kevin : all right , both of you , stop it ! listen , this is exactly what that mystery message sender wants . if we 're at each other 's throats , we 're never gon na get to the bottom of this . courtney : this whole thing has gotten out of control . i think it 's time we go to the police . kevin : no . mariah : are you crazy ? ! noah : courtney , we ca n't do that . kevin : if we go to the police , we will lose our jobs , and we could all be brought up on charges . courtney : you think i do n't know that ? kevin : then why would you even suggest it ? courtney : because we 're in over our heads . the person doing this is dangerous . if we do n't get help , one of us might end up hurt or worse . noah : courtney , i appreciate your opinion , okay , but it 's too late to go back . mariah : i am not going to jail to protect this spoiled brat . summer : i never asked for your help . mariah : if i could turn you in now , i would . kevin : all right , everybody , shut up ! just think for a minute . all right , whoever did this had to know if we went to the cops , we would be screwed . and courtney is right . whoever this is is messed up and pathological , but they know exactly what they 're doing . none of this has been random , starting with the way we all reacted to that drug in the punch . courtney : i was thinking the same thing . noah : what are you saying , kevin ? do you think that somebody else besides fen put something in our drink ? kevin : well , fen did n't expect all of us to pass out . and while we were unconscious , austin is murdered . his body disappears , then he shows up dead in a car . now these messages . mariah : wait , what are you saying ? kevin : somebody 's been watching us . and plotting this for a really long time . summer : who would want to kill austin ? [ thud ] courtney : noah ! noah : hey ! somebody was here . kelly : oh . thank you . phyllis : why are you not arresting her and dropping the charges against me ? courtney : because this all seems a little too convenient . phyllis : oh , okay . are you -- are you thinking or implying that i had something to do with this ? christine : there has to be more to kelly 's confession than some sudden attack of conscience . phyllis : why ? because i could n't possibly be the innocent one . christine : oh , well , finally we agree on something . phyllis : you can not come after me for something i did n't do . victor : christine , with all due respect -- first of all , my deepest sympathies for having lost the baby , okay ? but i think phyllis is right in saying that being a da does not give you the right to make your own rules . courtney : i 'm not so sure this is any of your business . victor : i beg to differ with you . you 're a publicly elected official . i 'm a concerned citizen . i just heard what ms . andrews had to say , and i 'm surprised that you 're not willing to act on it . phyllis : that 's a good question , victor . victor : and i think , given your history with phyllis , there 's a hint of impropriety . christine : no , something is definitely not right here . victor : yes , i think you should clear phyllis of all charges . kelly : they 're right . you should clear phyllis of the charges and arrest me . paul : [ sighs ] kelly andrews , you are under arrest for filing a false police report . you have a right to remain silent . if you choose not to express that right , anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law . victor : well , i think justice has been served . jack : was it ? phyllis : jack . jack : kelly did n't have a crisis of conscience . how did you get her to confess ? hilary : what does neil mean by he killed a baby ? devon : he does n't know what he 's saying . he 's drunk , okay ? hilary : that 's not the kind of thing that you just make up . devon : well , you 've said a lot of things that you do n't mean . hilary : you 're hiding something . devon : can you just take the money i gave you and what you came for and go ? hilary : not until you tell me what 's going on . devon : i 've told you ! he 's drunk . i do n't know what else to say . hilary : i 'll find out on my own . we both know what i 'm capable of . devon : it was n't his fault . hilary : what was n't ? just tell me , devon . i 'm gon na find out anyway . devon : he accepted a ride from nikki , thinking that she was taking him home , but when he found out they were going to an aa meeting , he grabbed the wheel , trying to force her to pull over the car , and when he did , the car swerved and hit christine , who had just walked into the street . hilary : oh , my god . neil is the reason why christine lost her baby ? devon : and it 's killing him knowing that he 's responsible , but it was an accident . that 's it . hilary : devon , i 'm so sorry . anything ? courtney : did you see anything ? kevin : yeah , a bunch of footprints . noah : yeah , i did n't , too , but they could have been abby 's or kyle 's . kevin : or the person who 's been watching us . if they 're trying to plot their next move , it makes sense they 'd be keeping tabs on us . mariah : how do you know that he is not a she ? kevin : i do n't . we do n't know anything about this mystery stalker . noah : well , including if we even have one . kevin : look , somebody was out there . summer : okay , you know what ? i 'm really freaked out . i do think we need to go to the police . mariah : we just went over this ! you 're the reason we did n't go to the police . summer : because i thought i killed austin . i do n't think that anymore . mariah : oh , great ! well , by all means , let 's race in our expensive cars straight to the police station . oh , wait . i do n't have an expensive car . maybe i can borrow the one that you bought for austin , or was that abby ? i forget . summer : if you do n't shut your mouth -- mariah : what ? you gon na kill me , summer ? kevin : we 're not doing this . noah : stop it ! both of you ! courtney : wait , summer , what did you mean that you do n't think you killed austin ? summer : i remember more of what happened the night that he was killed . i remember that we got into an argument , i picked up the bookend , like i said , but i dropped it . there was no blood on it , and he was standing right in front of me , looking at me , without a scratch on him . it 's like i 've said all along . summer did n't kill austin . she could n't have . courtney : working under that assumption strengthens kevin 's theory . whoever 's sending these messages is the real killer . summer : i really do think we need to go to the police . mariah : can somebody please explain to her that she is not the only person affected by this . kevin : hi , listen , if it comes out that we covered up a murder , we could all be in serious trouble . noah : i 'm just starting to think that if we keep on lying , it might get worse for us . mariah : not if nobody finds out . courtney : yeah , but somebody is gon na find out , and we ca n't cover this up forever . the police are n't gon na stop looking until they find the truth . noah : it 's getting out of hand . and if there is somebody out there that wants to hurt us , we 're not really equipped to handle it . maybe we should go to the police . kevin : the hell we should ! devon : why are you acting like you care ? hilary : old habits . devon : i told you what you want to know , so can you leave now ? hilary : all i know is that neil is responsible for killing christine williams ' baby , but what did nikki tell the police ? i mean , can neil be prosecuted ? devon : you do n't have to worry about any of that . hilary : if christine brings a civil suit against neil , i could be held liable , and if it 's a criminal case , well , i could be held as a character witness . so ... what are we gon na do ? devon : we are n't gon na do anything . if neil needs his family , his family will be there for him , and that does n't include you . paul : this is paul williams . i 'm with kelly andrews . she is making a formal statement on the events surrounding her poisoning . go ahead . you can start when you 're ready . kelly : jack and i , uh ... we -- we started dating when phyllis was in a coma . i fell in love with him , and ... i thought he fell in love with me . no , he did . he did . and then , uh ... [ sighs ] ... phyllis woke up . and he broke up with me . and they got engaged . and i was just trying to make him see that he made a mistake . so i -- [ sighs ] i just arranged it so phyllis would -- would miss the big new year 's eve celebration at the club . and then i invited phyllis for tea . and when she was n't looking , i slipped some antifreeze into my tea . and i went and i erased all of the security footage so nobody would know that i had poisoned myself . paul : [ sighs ] kelly : phyllis never tried to harm me . okay ? it was me . it was all me . that 's the truth . jack : what did you offer kelly in exchange for her confession ? phyllis : jack , what difference does it make ? victor : jack ... one would think that you 'd be happy that phyllis has been cleared of all charges . jack : believe me , i am . victor : but what ? victor : but what if kelly changes her mind ? victor : do n't you worry about that . victor : you seem awfully sure of yourself . victor : was n't it obvious to everyone that ms . andrews was more than happy to unburden herself of all the guilt she had carried around ? one would actually feel some sympathy for her , if one were so inclined . phyllis : yeah , we do n't . jack : what is in this for kelly ? victor : listen to me . phyllis has been cleared of all charges . is n't that enough ? phyllis : yes , absolutely . victor : i suggest you focus on that , jack . phyllis : why are n't you happier about this ? jack : i love you . phyllis : i know that . jack : and i am happy kelly told the truth . phyllis : then what 's wrong ? jack : i know what victor is capable of . and kelly -- phyllis : is where she deserves to be . jack : i hate what she did to you . i hate it . but she 's been through so much -- so much of it because of me . phyllis : jack . you are a kind and compassionate man . jack : too kind for my own good , huh ? phyllis : it adds a nice balance to the relationship . jack : so just forget it and move on , right ? phyllis : hey . kelly is out of our lives . we 're together . it 's time to move on . jack : have i mentioned i love you ? paul : it 's all been recorded . we 're gon na have to drop the charges against phyllis . chris . [ door slams ] paul : [ sighs ] [ door opens ] [ door closes ] kelly : i did what you wanted . you had better keep up your end of the deal . victor : you will get what you want . and more . mariah : well , we 're screwed . kevin : are you always this negative ? mariah : no . i 'm positive . once they go to the cops and tell them that we knew austin was murdered and tried to cover it up , they 're gon na throw us into the nicest jail in genoa city . how 's that for positive ? kevin : we should have gone with them . mariah : they were n't gon na listen to us . kevin : [ sighs ] probably not . but i still think we 're safer if we stick together . summer : why are we stopping here , noah ? i thought we were going right to the police station ? noah : look , i just want to make sure that this is what we all want to do . courtney : i just think at this point we do n't really have a choi -- summer : oh , my god ! oh , my god ! oh ! noah : call 911 right now ! summer : is she -- is she dead ? noah : hold on , hold on . summer : oh , my god ! oh , my god ! abby ?

[ clears throat ] christine : why not ? kelly : i lied . paul : about what ? kelly : everything . switching the hotel rooms , phyllis poisoning me , sleeping with jack that night the underground collapsed . everything . paul : why ? kelly : i was just so desperate to hang onto jack . so i made it all up , hoping that he would ... turn against phyllis and to me . phyllis : oh , my god . christine : i do n't believe you . you were n't lying before . why are you changing your story ? paul : is somebody threatening you ? abby : i know that you would like nothing more than to go blab this to everyone . to go be gossip girl . and you know what ? i do n't care . i 've been trotted out to the press for a lot worse than this , but think about summer . think about what you 're handing to the police . it 's motive , it 's -- it 's -- it 's the perfect motive . summer killed austin because he was cheating on her . mariah : or it 's the perfect motive for you to have killed him , because he would n't leave her . summer : you slept with my husband !

you want to make that a reality ? ! phyllis : jack , let go of me . jack : not till you calm down . phyllis : i am calm . i lost a year of my life . when i woke up from that coma , i needed my fiancé more than ever . and he needed me , and he wanted me . kelly : i know that ! i knew the minute that you walked into the church that i could n't compete with you for a place in jack 's life . it was written all over his face ! phyllis : yeah , but you tried to get me out of the way . and tried to convince him i was a jealous psycho who tried to kill you ?

you do n't believe what he said about all us needing to stick together ? noah : i do n't believe anything kyle says . courtney : yeah , but he 's done a pretty good job taking care of summer these past couple days . noah : i think it 's weird that he showed up right before austin turned up dead . summer : he came to tell me about austin and abby 's affair . noah : that 's what he said . summer : i do n't think that kyle is the one that we should be suspicious of . i 'm sure that he 's out there right now trying to get abby to admit that she 's the one that sent those messages . courtney : no , whoever 's responsible for these messages is trying to control us through fear . abby does n't fit that profile . summer : she slept with my husband ! courtney : which makes her dishonest and selfish . but not pathological . mariah : i happen to agree with detective blondie . abby 's a cheater , but she 's not devious . kevin : so that leaves all of us and our possible mystery watcher . noah : well , let 's not forget about fen . i mean , i still think it 's kind of convenient he took off right after austin was found dead . kevin : he did n't want to miss his classes . look , he 's just getting his life back together . mariah : i 'm sorry , was drugging us part of his rehab ? summer : fen did n't mean to hurt anybody . i know him . mariah : you also thought you knew austin . kevin : mariah . mariah : no , i 'm not trying to be mean . i 'm just saying that summer is the worst judge of men ever . summer : you could n't even get a guy who was willing to cheat on his wife to do it with you . mariah : if i wanted your husband , i could have had him . summer : yeah , that 's why he was sleeping with abby and not you , right ? mariah : i was n't married to him . summer : no , you were n't . you were just lost in some plato sphere fantasy about you and austin . kevin : hey , it 's not that kind of fan fiction . summer : no , you 're the one that 's probably sending those messages , trying to scare us into keeping quiet ! mariah : i 'm sorry , are you pointing the finger at me ? noah : everybody just take it easy , okay ? mariah : no , she ca n't accuse me like that . for all we know , she 's the one sending the messages . she 's involved in some post - murder crackup . summer : shut up ! mariah : or maybe she 's just trying to get back at all of us for knowing about austin and abby 's fair and keeping it a secret . summer : you -- kevin : okay , okay ! stop it ! noah : stop , stop , stop ! kyle : you should n't have driven off like that . abby : why 'd you come after me ? if you 're here to tell me what a cheap tramp i am , do n't bother . i already got the message when summer slapped me . kyle : she has ever right to be upset , cuz . abby : i know . but i ca n't be in the line of fire for the rest of my life because i made one mistake . kyle : look , you and austin hooking up -- those things happen . summer 's young . she 's ... all wrapped up in this . it 's still fresh to her . abby : i hate what i did to summer . once it started , i tried to stop , but i ca n't . i could n't . i - i 'm a horrible person . kyle : it 's like you said , abs , you made a mistake . i know you did n't mean to hurt summer . abby : i really did n't . kyle : you were just in too deep , and when austin died ... you were at a total loss . you did n't know what to do with all that grief and anger . that 's why you wrote those messages . abby : what ? kyle : it 's okay . you can tell me . abby : i did n't do it . you saw the shade of lipstick on the mirror . would that be anything i would ever be associated with ? but summer does n't believe me , so she sent you here to get me to confess . kyle : no , this was all my idea . abby : i can not believe that you would manipulate me this way . kyle : come on . look , i -- [ sighs ] i 'm just looking for answers , okay ? we all are . abby : and you all think that i wrote those messages ? you all probably think that i killed austin , too . it would n't surprise me if summer was with the police right now , pointing the finger at me . the mistress with a motive . well , you know what ? maybe i 'll go to paul myself and tell him exactly what happened . kyle : oh , come on , abby . no one 's going to the cops . we all need to just stick to our story . abby : from what i saw at the cabin , it looks like every man and woman for herself . kyle : abby . [ sighs ] summer : let me at her ! mariah : i know you slapped abby . why do n't you try that with me and see what happens ? ! noah : mariah , knock it off ! kevin : all right , both of you , stop it ! listen , this is exactly what that mystery message sender wants . if we 're at each other 's throats , we 're never gon na get to the bottom of this . courtney : this whole thing has gotten out of control . i think it 's time we go to the police . kevin : no . mariah : are you crazy ? ! noah : courtney , we ca n't do that . kevin : if we go to the police , we will lose our jobs , and we could all be brought up on charges . courtney : you think i do n't know that ? kevin : then why would you even suggest it ? courtney : because we 're in over our heads . the person doing this is dangerous . if we do n't get help , one of us might end up hurt or worse . noah : courtney , i appreciate your opinion , okay , but it 's too late to go back . mariah : i am not going to jail to protect this spoiled brat . summer : i never asked for your help . mariah : if i could turn you in now , i would . kevin : all right , everybody , shut up ! just think for a minute . all right , whoever did this had to know if we went to the cops , we would be screwed . and courtney is right . whoever this is is messed up and pathological , but they know exactly what they 're doing . none of this has been random , starting with the way we all reacted to that drug in the punch . courtney : i was thinking the same thing . noah : what are you saying , kevin ? do you think that somebody else besides fen put something in our drink ? kevin : well , fen did n't expect all of us to pass out . and while we were unconscious , austin is murdered . his body disappears , then he shows up dead in a car . now these messages . mariah : wait , what are you saying ? kevin : somebody 's been watching us . and plotting this for a really long time . summer : who would want to kill austin ? [ thud ] courtney : noah ! noah : hey ! somebody was here . kelly : oh . thank you . phyllis : why are you not arresting her and dropping the charges against me ? courtney : because this all seems a little too convenient . phyllis : oh , okay . are you -- are you thinking or implying that i had something to do with this ? christine : there has to be more to kelly 's confession than some sudden attack of conscience . phyllis : why ? because i could n't possibly be the innocent one . christine : oh , well , finally we agree on something . phyllis : you can not come after me for something i did n't do . victor : christine , with all due respect -- first of all , my deepest sympathies for having lost the baby , okay ? but i think phyllis is right in saying that being a da does not give you the right to make your own rules . courtney : i 'm not so sure this is any of your business . victor : i beg to differ with you . you 're a publicly elected official . i 'm a concerned citizen . i just heard what ms . andrews had to say , and i 'm surprised that you 're not willing to act on it . phyllis : that 's a good question , victor . victor : and i think , given your history with phyllis , there 's a hint of impropriety . christine : no , something is definitely not right here . victor : yes , i think you should clear phyllis of all charges . kelly : they 're right . you should clear phyllis of the charges and arrest me . paul : [ sighs ] kelly andrews , you are under arrest for filing a false police report . you have a right to remain silent . if you choose not to express that right , anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law . victor : well , i think justice has been served . jack : was it ? phyllis : jack . jack : kelly did n't have a crisis of conscience . how did you get her to confess ? hilary : what does neil mean by he killed a baby ? devon : he does n't know what he 's saying . he 's drunk , okay ? hilary : that 's not the kind of thing that you just make up . devon : well , you 've said a lot of things that you do n't mean . hilary : you 're hiding something . devon : can you just take the money i gave you and what you came for and go ? hilary : not until you tell me what 's going on . devon : i 've told you ! he 's drunk . i do n't know what else to say . hilary : i 'll find out on my own . we both know what i 'm capable of . devon : it was n't his fault . hilary : what was n't ? just tell me , devon . i 'm gon na find out anyway . devon : he accepted a ride from nikki , thinking that she was taking him home , but when he found out they were going to an aa meeting , he grabbed the wheel , trying to force her to pull over the car , and when he did , the car swerved and hit christine , who had just walked into the street . hilary : oh , my god . neil is the reason why christine lost her baby ? devon : and it 's killing him knowing that he 's responsible , but it was an accident . that 's it . hilary : devon , i 'm so sorry . anything ? courtney : did you see anything ? kevin : yeah , a bunch of footprints . noah : yeah , i did n't , too , but they could have been abby 's or kyle 's . kevin : or the person who 's been watching us . if they 're trying to plot their next move , it makes sense they 'd be keeping tabs on us . mariah : how do you know that he is not a she ? kevin : i do n't . we do n't know anything about this mystery stalker . noah : well , including if we even have one . kevin : look , somebody was out there . summer : okay , you know what ? i 'm really freaked out . i do think we need to go to the police . mariah : we just went over this ! you 're the reason we did n't go to the police . summer : because i thought i killed austin . i do n't think that anymore . mariah : oh , great ! well , by all means , let 's race in our expensive cars straight to the police station . oh , wait . i do n't have an expensive car . maybe i can borrow the one that you bought for austin , or was that abby ? i forget . summer : if you do n't shut your mouth -- mariah : what ? you gon na kill me , summer ? kevin : we 're not doing this . noah : stop it ! both of you ! courtney : wait , summer , what did you mean that you do n't think you killed austin ? summer : i remember more of what happened the night that he was killed . i remember that we got into an argument , i picked up the bookend , like i said , but i dropped it . there was no blood on it , and he was standing right in front of me , looking at me , without a scratch on him . it 's like i 've said all along . summer did n't kill austin . she could n't have . courtney : working under that assumption strengthens kevin 's theory . whoever 's sending these messages is the real killer . summer : i really do think we need to go to the police . mariah : can somebody please explain to her that she is not the only person affected by this . kevin : hi , listen , if it comes out that we covered up a murder , we could all be in serious trouble . noah : i 'm just starting to think that if we keep on lying , it might get worse for us . mariah : not if nobody finds out . courtney : yeah , but somebody is gon na find out , and we ca n't cover this up forever . the police are n't gon na stop looking until they find the truth . noah : it 's getting out of hand . and if there is somebody out there that wants to hurt us , we 're not really equipped to handle it . maybe we should go to the police . kevin : the hell we should ! devon : why are you acting like you care ? hilary : old habits . devon : i told you what you want to know , so can you leave now ? hilary : all i know is that neil is responsible for killing christine williams ' baby , but what did nikki tell the police ? i mean , can neil be prosecuted ? devon : you do n't have to worry about any of that . hilary : if christine brings a civil suit against neil , i could be held liable , and if it 's a criminal case , well , i could be held as a character witness . so ... what are we gon na do ? devon : we are n't gon na do anything . if neil needs his family , his family will be there for him , and that does n't include you . paul : this is paul williams . i 'm with kelly andrews . she is making a formal statement on the events surrounding her poisoning . go ahead . you can start when you 're ready . kelly : jack and i , uh ... we -- we started dating when phyllis was in a coma . i fell in love with him , and ... i thought he fell in love with me . no , he did . he did . and then , uh ... [ sighs ] ... phyllis woke up . and he broke up with me . and they got engaged . and i was just trying to make him see that he made a mistake . so i -- [ sighs ] i just arranged it so phyllis would -- would miss the big new year 's eve celebration at the club . and then i invited phyllis for tea . and when she was n't looking , i slipped some antifreeze into my tea . and i went and i erased all of the security footage so nobody would know that i had poisoned myself . paul : [ sighs ] kelly : phyllis never tried to harm me . okay ? it was me . it was all me . that 's the truth . jack : what did you offer kelly in exchange for her confession ? phyllis : jack , what difference does it make ? victor : jack ... one would think that you 'd be happy that phyllis has been cleared of all charges . jack : believe me , i am . victor : but what ? victor : but what if kelly changes her mind ? victor : do n't you worry about that . victor : you seem awfully sure of yourself . victor : was n't it obvious to everyone that ms . andrews was more than happy to unburden herself of all the guilt she had carried around ? one would actually feel some sympathy for her , if one were so inclined . phyllis : yeah , we do n't . jack : what is in this for kelly ? victor : listen to me . phyllis has been cleared of all charges . is n't that enough ? phyllis : yes , absolutely . victor : i suggest you focus on that , jack . phyllis : why are n't you happier about this ? jack : i love you . phyllis : i know that . jack : and i am happy kelly told the truth . phyllis : then what 's wrong ? jack : i know what victor is capable of . and kelly -- phyllis : is where she deserves to be . jack : i hate what she did to you . i hate it . but she 's been through so much -- so much of it because of me . phyllis : jack . you are a kind and compassionate man . jack : too kind for my own good , huh ? phyllis : it adds a nice balance to the relationship . jack : so just forget it and move on , right ? phyllis : hey . kelly is out of our lives . we 're together . it 's time to move on . jack : have i mentioned i love you ? paul : it 's all been recorded . we 're gon na have to drop the charges against phyllis . chris . [ door slams ] paul : [ sighs ] [ door opens ] [ door closes ] kelly : i did what you wanted . you had better keep up your end of the deal . victor : you will get what you want . and more . mariah : well , we 're screwed . kevin : are you always this negative ? mariah : no . i 'm positive . once they go to the cops and tell them that we knew austin was murdered and tried to cover it up , they 're gon na throw us into the nicest jail in genoa city . how 's that for positive ? kevin : we should have gone with them . mariah : they were n't gon na listen to us . kevin : [ sighs ] probably not . but i still think we 're safer if we stick together . summer : why are we stopping here , noah ? i thought we were going right to the police station ? noah : look , i just want to make sure that this is what we all want to do . courtney : i just think at this point we do n't really have a choi -- summer : oh , my god ! oh , my god ! oh ! noah : call 911 right now ! summer : is she -- is she dead ? noah : hold on , hold on . summer : oh , my god ! oh , my god ! abby ? [ next_on ] sharon : are you starting to heal ? nick : are you asking me if i 've started to forgive you yet ? avery : no , i ca n't do it ! kyle : is abby okay ? where is she ? noah : the bigger question right now is where were you ?Summarize.[/INST]kelly provides a sworn statement to paul telling the police that she poisoned herself in order to make jack realize that phyllis is n't the same woman he once loved . the charges against phyllis are dropped which makes christine angry , because now she ca n't use work as an excuse not to deal with the loss of her and paul 's daughter . jack feels guilty that kelly is suffering because of him and he is determined to find out how victor got kelly to confess her crime . victor goes to the police station and kelly tells him that she did as he asked , so he better keep his end of their deal . victor tells kelly she will get everything she wants and more so she should n't worry .</s> | 16,614 |

[ scene_break ] nicole : so ej and sami have called a truce . which means ej will probably ask me to leave and i wo n't be able to see the children anymore . brady : so what exactly do you want me to do about that ? nicole : maybe you could talk to sami and convince her that i should still be a part of their lives . brady : you 're -- you 're kidding me , right ? nicole : you know how much i love them and i would do anything for them . brady : oh , i know . i know . i 'm very aware of that . that has n't slipped my mind . although it seems to have slipped yours that you threw me out of your life so you could be with sydney . nicole : i did n't have a choice . brady : yes , you did have a choice ! and you chose wrong . and now you 're alone . that 's exactly what you deserve . [ scene_break ] chloe : please , daniel , do n't make me leave . i love you . all i 've ever wanted was your love . just please give me another chance . daniel : you know , chloe , if you told me about philip from the start , then , you know , maybe . maybe i could have . but when i think about how you lied -- you lied night after night and you schemed . you schemed to keep me in the dark . now , how am i supposed to forgive that ? chloe : i hated lying to you ! i swear , if we just move past this , i swear to god i will never lie to you for the rest of my life . daniel : i do n't -- i ca n't . you know , i ca n't . i ca n't believe you . honey , i wo n't . i 'll never believe you again . melanie : good . thank god for that . [ scene_break ] sami : [ scoffs ] rafael : sami , of course i do not think that you are stupid or naive . a little too trusting perhaps . sami : i do n't trust him , okay ? at all . but ... we do n't have a choice . we just have to hope that he is gon na honor his end of the deal . and what we should worry about are the people around him . rafael : like who ? nicole ? sami : well , normally , yeah . but , i mean , if she 's staying away from my kids now , then , no , i do n't think she 's a threat . rafael : well , so who then ? stefano ? sami : we both know how susceptible ej is to his father . sure , i think ej wants to honor the deal now , but he 's gon na get confident . he 'd break that deal in a second . especially with stefano egging him on . rafael : you 're right . so what we need to do is neutralize stefano . [ scene_break ] stefano : so ... you want to eliminate rafael ? ej : posthaste . stefano : well , i think i have the perfect solution . ej : it 's funny . i thought you might say that . stefano : one that is even more destructive and effective ... than his death .

[ scene_break ] sami : look , i just think we have to be really careful with stefano and ej . we just sit back , keep an eye on them . rafael : you 're right . you 're right . so what i 'm gon na do is quietly keep building my case against them , and in the meantime , keep the peace . sami : i just want to go home with my kids . all i want is to be with them . rafael : and that 's what you 're gon na have . i 'm not gon na left stefano or anyone else ruin that . good ?

[ scene_break ] melanie : but , maggie , sometimes daniel can be a little too forgiving . maggie : melanie , listen to me . it 's one thing to -- to , um , look out for someone that you love . but when you start trying to control their lives -- melanie : i know . i know . you 're right . i know . really , who am i to be meddling in someone else 's love life when mine is a complete disaster ? maggie : well , no more lectures from me . how is -- have you talked to nathan and have you told him about the baby ? melanie : no , no . i do n't want to . you ca n't tell him anything . please ? maggie : of course not . but , melanie , why do n't you want him to know ? melanie : because nathan wants us to be together now that we 're free . maggie : and you do n't want that , i take it ? melanie : uh . i do n't know what i want . i 'm a complete mess . and besides , now that i 'm pregnant , i 'm kind of the last thing he needs right now . maggie : i do n't think he 'd see it that way . melanie : i do . besides , i just want to focus on this baby . he or she is the most important thing in my life now . maggie : of course . i understand . i want you to know how proud i am of you for being so strong .

[ scene_break ] sami : look , you did n't see him in the chapel , the way that he looked , the look in his eye , the way he was talking about his deal with god and wanting to make that truce . rafael : okay , fine . all i am saying is that he has fooled you before with those same eyes . sami : hear me out . we have talked about how he really does love his kids , right ? i think he 's really scared about johnny and i think he really means it that he wants to have a truce . he believes in that deal he made with god . rafael : well , i just do n't want to see you trust him based on the look in his eyes . i think -- [ scoffs ] sami : have you not been listening ? are you serious ? you think i 'm that stupid ? or is it just that you think i 'm naive ? rafael : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] ej : father , i 'm not in love with samantha ... any ... more . stefano : i see . so getting rid of rafael , that has nothing to do with eliminating the competition ? ej : no . i 'm never going to pursue samantha again . the only thing that i feel in her presence is disgust . stefano : then why would you let her back in the children 's life , huh ? i mean , you get rid of her , you get rid of hernandez . ej : because in light of things that have happened ... i realize the children need a mother and nicole 's hardly a substitute . stefano : [ chuckles ] no argument there . ej : okay , so come on . look . i let samantha spend some time with the children . i keep a close eye on her . stefano : and rafael ? ej : he was n't part of the bargain . my children do n't need another father . so for my children 's sake , he has to be removed from samantha 's life for good . [ scene_break ] nicole : so ej and sami have called a truce . which means ej will probably ask me to leave and i wo n't be able to see the children anymore . brady : so what exactly do you want me to do about that ? nicole : maybe you could talk to sami and convince her that i should still be a part of their lives . brady : you 're -- you 're kidding me , right ? nicole : you know how much i love them and i would do anything for them . brady : oh , i know . i know . i 'm very aware of that . that has n't slipped my mind . although it seems to have slipped yours that you threw me out of your life so you could be with sydney . nicole : i did n't have a choice . brady : yes , you did have a choice ! and you chose wrong . and now you 're alone . that 's exactly what you deserve . [ scene_break ] chloe : please , daniel , do n't make me leave . i love you . all i 've ever wanted was your love . just please give me another chance . daniel : you know , chloe , if you told me about philip from the start , then , you know , maybe . maybe i could have . but when i think about how you lied -- you lied night after night and you schemed . you schemed to keep me in the dark . now , how am i supposed to forgive that ? chloe : i hated lying to you ! i swear , if we just move past this , i swear to god i will never lie to you for the rest of my life . daniel : i do n't -- i ca n't . you know , i ca n't . i ca n't believe you . honey , i wo n't . i 'll never believe you again . melanie : good . thank god for that . [ scene_break ] sami : [ scoffs ] rafael : sami , of course i do not think that you are stupid or naive . a little too trusting perhaps . sami : i do n't trust him , okay ? at all . but ... we do n't have a choice . we just have to hope that he is gon na honor his end of the deal . and what we should worry about are the people around him . rafael : like who ? nicole ? sami : well , normally , yeah . but , i mean , if she 's staying away from my kids now , then , no , i do n't think she 's a threat . rafael : well , so who then ? stefano ? sami : we both know how susceptible ej is to his father . sure , i think ej wants to honor the deal now , but he 's gon na get confident . he 'd break that deal in a second . especially with stefano egging him on . rafael : you 're right . so what we need to do is neutralize stefano . [ scene_break ] stefano : so ... you want to eliminate rafael ? ej : posthaste . stefano : well , i think i have the perfect solution . ej : it 's funny . i thought you might say that . stefano : one that is even more destructive and effective ... than his death .

[ scene_break ] sami : look , i just think we have to be really careful with stefano and ej . we just sit back , keep an eye on them . rafael : you 're right . you 're right . so what i 'm gon na do is quietly keep building my case against them , and in the meantime , keep the peace . sami : i just want to go home with my kids . all i want is to be with them . rafael : and that 's what you 're gon na have . i 'm not gon na left stefano or anyone else ruin that . good ?

[ chuckles ] ugh , i could kill helena cassadine . that woman has caused so much pain . she let everyone believe that little jake was dead . that whole family grieved . jason : yeah . sam : i mean , especially jason . it went so deep , he could not even express it . and now ... little jake is here and jason is never gon na -- jason : you 're right . he 's here . he 's alive . he is here . and now jake and danny -- they get to grow up as brothers , and that means a lot . that 's pretty amazing . sam : you know what ? you -- you are absolutely right . i need to focus on the good and stop dwelling on what ca n't be changed . jason : what happened happened . all you can do is move on . you know , something else happened at elizabeth 's that i want to run by you . sam : oh , yeah , wh -- uh , what 's up ? jason : well , michael came to visit , and , uh , i told him about the nikolas and hayden connection . sam : oh . really ? what 'd he have to say about that ? jason : he brought up a good point -- if hayden knows who i really am , um ... maybe nikolas does , too . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : laura , please do n't tell jason who he is . he likes being the person he is . he 's happy with me and my boys . laura : it was n't seeing jason that led me to this decision . it was seeing monica , his mother . i watched her walk out of here elated that her grandson is alive , but she does n't know that her own son is . elizabeth , does n't that mean anything to you ? look , you believed that little jake was dead for many , many years . you mourned him . you know about that ache that never , ever goes away . and the feeling you had when you found out that he was alive -- do n't you want that for monica , too ? elizabeth : it is n't the same thing . laura : it is exactly the same thing ! elizabeth : [ sighs ] laura : we are all the same . we are all mothers . we all love our sons more than anything else in the world . elizabeth : and that is exactly why you have to stay quiet -- for your sons .

[ scene_break ] sam : nikolas swore that he had no idea who you really are . jason : i think the elq takeover proves that your cousin can keep a secret . sam : okay , true . jason : and it would explain why hayden was able to , uh , [ chuckles ] know my true identity . no one else could . she was living with your cousin . sam : wait a minute . when hayden was shot -- when you went after shawn -- she said that someone else knows the truth about who you are . jason : yeah . could have been nikolas . it would explain why hayden insisted whatever she had to say would affect you , too . i mean [ clears throat ] maybe she wanted to let you know what your cousin had done . sam : hayden did seem convinced that knowing who you are would matter to me , but i ca n't imagine nikolas knowing and keeping quiet about it this whole time . jason : look , i get it . i get it . he 's your family . you want to give him the benefit of the doubt . sam : no , you know what ? i just -- i was afraid of this . i ca n't -- i ca n't believe it . but maybe storming the gates of elq is just the tip of the iceberg . maybe nikolas has become a true cassadine , and he 's taken to plundering people 's lives and not just the quartermaine family business . jason : i 'm sorry that i 'm going down this road , but i think we have to . sam : [ sighs ] yes , we do . but if it is true , how do we get nikolas to admit it ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : nikolas and lucky both know that jake is really jason . everybody would be furious with them for hiding that . laura : [ scoffs ] well , that 's hardly the point . elizabeth : and especially nikolas . he 's known this for months . and right now , sam 's already mad at him for taking elq away from the quartermaines . now , she 's going to get past that , but she would never forgive him for keeping her husband away from her . do you really want nikolas to lose his -- his cousin and alexis , the entire family ? you realize everybody is going to turn against him . are you willing to make your son a pariah ? laura : you know , i think that 's a chance that i 'm willing to take . i believe my son would understand , and i think he 'd forgive me . elizabeth : well , even if he does , what good is it gon na do either of you if nikolas is in prison ? [ scene_break ] nikolas : so , what is this , uh , oh - so - creative plan of yours ? michael : maybe i 'm taking a page out of your book -- exploiting my enemy 's weakness . now , in my -- my family 's case , we mistakenly placed our trust in you . we did n't think that you would violate emily 's memory by raiding our company . and now you assume that you are securely in charge , and there 's nothing my family can use against you . nikolas : well , nothing that you could use as leverage in business . michael : are you sure about that , nikolas ? everyone has secrets . everyone . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : there 's someone else who knows the truth about jason . her name is hayden barnes . she was blackmailing nikolas , threatened to tell . she tried to make good on her threat , but moments before she told jason the truth , she got shot in the head . laura : my god . are you -- are you saying ... elizabeth : i think nikolas was responsible . laura : no . no , nikolas did n't have someone shot . he 's not capable of that . elizabeth : i - it took me a while to put it all together . but the shooting was blamed on one of sonny 's enforcers , shawn butler . it was seen as a failed attempt to kill jason , of all people . everyone just thinks the bullet went astray and accidentally hit hayden . laura : did nikolas ever say that he wanted this girl -- hayden -- dead ? elizabeth : no . no . he would n't want me implicated in the murder . anyway , after hayden got shot , i - i do n't want to say that i was relieved , but i - i could n't believe how things unfolded . nikolas was so committed to keeping jason 's identity a secret . he even had hayden move into wyndemere with him . and then the day of the shooting , this -- it was like this change came over him , and he -- he actually told hayden t - to go ahead and t - tell jason the truth . laura : [ sighs ] elizabeth : he was so -- he was so calm . and he kept reassuring me over and over again that it was all gon na work out . of course , i did n't believe him , because i did n't know how far he would go to keep hayden quiet . laura : is she dead ? elizabeth : no . no , she 's in a coma . i did n't want to think about nikolas ordering hayden shot until her condition changed . her vitals started to improve , and it looked like she might be waking up , so i -- i told nikolas this , and he -- he said that if hayden comes to , he 'll take care of it . the look in his eyes and the sound in his voice -- it was just so cold and flat . laura , i do n't -- i do n't want to believe this is true , but it all adds up . i think nikolas was behind the shooting . and this is why the truth about jason can never come out . [ scene_break ] nikolas : you 're better off admitting your failure and moving on . michael : i did n't fail . you illegally grabbed my family 's stock . nikolas : you only have yourself to blame , michael , for losing elq . i mean , if -- if you had n't spitefully taken sonny 's daughter away from him , i do n't know , maybe lucy coe would have never used her tie - breaking vote against you . michael : i 've already addressed the sonny situation . avery is back with her father . you add that to the fact that my track record as ceo is more profitable than yours , and then when we have another vote , i 'm sure lucy will actually change her mind . so enjoy your time behind my desk while you can because pretty soon , you 're gon na be out in the cold with the rest of the cassadines . [ scene_break ] sam : i know nikolas . i know that confronting him wo n't work . if he knows the truth about you , he will take it to his grave . jason : [ clears throat ] do you have any idea why my identity would be so important to him ? i mean , why would n't he just come out and tell me what he knows ? sam : no , i - i ca n't imagine why he would want to mess with someone 's life like this . jason : look , i -- i 've told you that i 'm okay with not having a past . i mean , i 'm -- i 'm content . what i have with elizabeth and her boys , it 's -- it 's pretty great . it 's amazing . i love this woman . but when michael tells me that nikolas might know who i am , i - i do n't know . something seizes me up . i get really worked up , and i -- i want to know who i am . [ scene_break ] nina : um , all right , so , you 're telling me that -- that silas , uh , was hiding ava , and he took that baby 's bone marrow so he could save her life ? franco : yeah . silas did n't want anyone to know that ava was alive , because then he 'd get in trouble for helping her escape , and then he saw avery at the hospital , and he just grabbed her . nina : he 's a son of a bitch . he kidnapped that baby , and he 's trying to pin it on me . [ scene_break ] ava : silas said he 's gon na tell kiki about us when she gets back from her trip , which means he 's not gon na do nothing about nothing tonight . morgan : oh , i 'll make sure of that . ava : you 'll have time to head him off at the pass without going postal on silas . morgan , you have got to calm down . morgan : calm -- how can you be calm ? ava : 'cause i 'm gon na figure out a way to stop this from happening without confronting silas . so you go . you go home and -- and let me work on figuring out a way to make this right by tomorrow . just promise me -- you cross your heart and hope to die -- you will not see silas tonight . morgan : okay . ava : swear it . morgan : i swear . ava : good . now go home . i have to put my thinking cap on , and that 's not very pretty . morgan : sorry , denise . ca n't keep that promise . [ scene_break ] ava : oh , pick up , silas , please . [ ringing ] silas : you 've reached dr. silas clay . if this is a patient emergency , call -- ava : damn it . oh , no , no , no , no , no , no , no . he is not gon na do this to me . who gives a damn about the affair ? if he tells kiki who i really am , i 'm going to prison . my life will be over . [ scene_break ] nina : lying bastard . he 's a liar . he took the baby . do you know , when i thought i took her , when i thought i took avery , i went right to him ? i went to him , and i told him everything that happened . he sat there , and he just listened to me , but he took the baby . he took the baby the entire time , right ? franco : yeah . nina : oh , my god . he 's a dirtbag . he is a dirtbag . i can not believe this . i ca n't believe that i -- i sat there and i talked to him and -- and i trusted him , and he went off and he said all this gratuitous , lovely stuff to me , but it was all a lie . he did n't give a damn about me . he 's trying to pin this on me . do you know he 's trying to pin this on me ? he 's -- i - it 's -- he 's trying to take me down for a crime that i did n't commit . that 's what he 's trying to do . he 's -- he 's trying to take away my life again . he 's trying to take away my life . i 'm as worthless to him now as i ever was , and he once again has chosen ava over me ! once again ! franco : he 's a hypocrite . a total hypocrite . nina : he 's not gon na get away with it . do you know that ? he 's not gon na get away with it this time . franco : no , he wo n't . wait , wait , wait , where are you going ? nina ! man : franco ! oh , you 're back ! fancy a game of `` chutes and ladders `` ? i 've been practicing . franco : i do n't have time right now . man : oh , sure there 's time . franco : no , there is n't . my friend -- i have to get -- man : y - you have time , no . we could play `` chutes and ladders `` and work our way up to `` battleship . `` franco : look over here ! nina ! [ scene_break ] jason : let 's stay focused on the task at hand -- getting nikolas out of elq and michael back in there where he belongs . sam : yeah , but if nikolas does have the knowledge about you , we can take him down in a heartbeat . we just need proof . but the only one who can do that is hayden barnes , and she 's still in a coma . jason : yeah . [ scene_break ] nikolas : as entertaining as all of your hypotheticals have been , i need to find my mother . michael : well , i actually know where she is . nikolas : could have said that to begin with . where is she ? michael : elizabeth 's . my grandmother and i were leaving while she was arriving . i 'm assuming she was there to see little jake , but when we left , she was talking to jake doe . [ scene_break ] laura : if your theory were right , the police would have already found out about this , because the bullet that hit hayden would n't match the one that 's in shawn butler 's gun . elizabeth : the investigation never got that far . shawn butler pled guilty so he could n't be used to implicate sonny . he was taken off to prison days after hayden got shot , and i 'm willing to bet that shawn 's misspent bullet is somewhere in that garage . and the bullet they took out of hayden 's head has been filed as evidence . if the truth about jason comes out , they will reopen the investigation . laura : i do n't see why . elizabeth : because sam and jason were witnesses , and they knew that hayden was on the verge of telling them something right before she got shot . and if the police figure out that she was actually the intended target , how long is it gon na take them to trace it back to nikolas ? laura : and if that were to happen and if the police were to question you , would you implicate my son ? elizabeth : it does n't have to come to that , laura . i love your son . i 'm trying to protect him , and i want you to protect him . laura : stop , please . [ groans ] oh , my god . you know -- wait a minute , wait a minute . you want the truth about jason to stay buried . do n't you think that maybe that 's coloring your judgment ? maybe nikolas is really innocent , and how do you think he would feel if he knew that you thought that he would actually have somebody shot ? elizabeth : i do n't believe he is innocent , and i do n't think you do , either . i 've had obviously a long time to think about this -- longer than you -- and i have realized that it is better for everyone , laura , especially nikolas , if jason stays jake . i 'm gon na go check on my boys . i need you to think about this , because this is n't a case of right and wrong . the wrong was already done long before we ever got involved . it 's about doing the best we can for the people we love , okay ? laura : [ sighs ] oh . [ crying ] oh . elizabeth : i just got all the boys down . did you have enough time to think ? laura : yeah , i did . i 'm gon na go talk to nikolas . i 'm gon na ask him what really happened with hayden barnes . elizabeth : no , you ca n't . nikolas does n't realize that i 've figured it out . laura : i can not assume that my son is guilty without at least giving him a chance to defend himself . elizabeth : are you really going to put him in this position ? where he either has to lie to his mother or admit to your face that he had a woman shot ? [ scene_break ] jason : do you think , uh , there 's another place that nikolas might keep sensitive documents , besides the wyndemere safe ? i mean , maybe a safe - deposit box ? something ? sam : um , i do n't know , but i can definitely check it out . patrick : sam . sam : oh . patrick : hi . sam : you caught me . it 's just a snack . i 'm -- i 'm still gon na want dinner . [ chuckles ] patrick : it 's quite all right . sorry -- - sorry i was late . it took a little bit longer than i expected . sam : oh , that 's okay . jake was waiting with me . patrick : hey . jason : i actually wanted to talk to you about hayden . has her condition changed ? patrick : well , uh , funny you should ask . your timing is right - on . i just left her room . she 's waking up . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : laura , i know it 's not a perfect solution , but the alternative will hurt so many people , especially nikolas . you ca n't tell him what i 've told you . just leave it alone , okay ? please . [ knock on door ] elizabeth : nikolas . nikolas : hi . elizabeth : come in . nikolas : mother , here you are . michael quartermaine told me you might still be here . laura : yeah . yeah . uh , we had an awful lot to catch up on . nikolas : guess so . elizabeth , i - i need to speak to my mother about jason . i did n't get a chance to tell you that she overheard us . elizabeth : yeah . uh , yeah , i - i know all about it . laura : actually , that 's what we were discussing -- jason . elizabeth : [ inhales sharply ] [ scene_break ] michael : morgan ? morgan : hey . michael : hi . morgan : what 's up , man ? michael : everything okay ? morgan : yeah . yeah , yeah , no , i 'm -- i 'm fine . i just -- i need a drink , that 's all . michael : did something happen ? morgan : no , nothing for you to worry about . michael : well , guess what ? i 'm worried . so ... what 's going on ? morgan : nothing . i 'm -- i 'm -- i 'm fine . michael : all right , um , look , there 's somewhere i got to -- i got to be . morgan : okay , that 's -- go . michael : [ sighs ] morgan , the whole point of having a truce is that we can start talking to each other again . so if you need me , you have my -- my cell phone number , right ? morgan : mm - hmm . right . michael : all right . morgan : michael . why do you still care about me when all i am is an ass to you ? michael : i - i 'm your big brother . it 's my job . call me . morgan : okay . excuse me . i need a double tequila -- anything . as soon as you can , please .

[ scene_break ] laura : i hope you do n't mind . jason : no , not at all . i - i completely understand . it 's okay . i 've got stuff to do anyway today , so hey .

[ scene_break ] michael : looking for your mother , nikolas ? you know , for someone who prides himself on taking care of his family , it certainly did n't stop you from messing with mine . [ scene_break ] morgan : silas took off like a bat out of hell . did n't say one word to me , which i guess is a good thing , but what about you ? did you convince him to keep his mouth shut ? ava : [ inhales sharply ] i do n't think so . morgan : that 's bad . that 's really , really bad , denise . ava : i tried like hell , but silas -- he seems determined to tell kiki everything .

[ scene_break ] ava : what are we gon na do ? morgan : you know what ? silas clay 's a hypocrite 'cause he cheated on his wife . he was married to nina , cheated on her with ava , got her pregnant , so i do n't know where the hell he gets the stones to act all righteous and moral towards us . ava : morgan , we need to focus on coming up with a plan to stop him . morgan : silas is judging us . you got to be kidding me . yet he was mixing it up in bed just like we were , except he was married and his wife was pregnant .

[ laughs ] you did that to protect me . listen ... ... no one ... [ voice breaking ] ... no one has ever tried to do that for me . no one 's ever , ever , um , tried to protect me or help me . i mean , silas just threw me away for ava , and my mom , you know , she just threw me away , so -- franco : it 's over now . all of that 's over . you 're okay . and i 'm here , and the first thing that we 're gon na do together is get you out of here . [ scene_break ] michael : how 's it going over there at my great - grandfather 's company ? nikolas : [ chuckles ] it 's -- it 's going quite well , actually . michael : really ? that 's -- oh . because i saw that the , uh , the stock took a nosedive this week , despite all that press you did about guiding elq with a steady hand and increasing profits . now , it would seem that the shareholders hold no more confidence in your leadership than the quartermaines . nikolas : m - michael , come on . you know as well as i do the stock prices tend to fluctuate , especially when there 's a takeover . i can assure you , the company is thriving with me in charge . within a matter of weeks , the shares will be above and beyond what they were before i took over . michael : within a matter of weeks , you could be gone . [ scene_break ] sam : elizabeth seemed a little hesitant about letting little jake and danny meet , but i guess -- i guess i just made a bigger deal about it than it was supposed to be . patrick : she mentioned that , and she did n't mean to make you feel that way . but i think it was what we were talking about , you know ? a lot 's happened in a short amount of time , and she 's just being cautious . sam : wow . so jason 's sons are gon na be able to be in each other 's lives . thank you . patrick : yes . sam : thank you . patrick : of course . sam : i love you . patrick : i love you , too . as much as i hate to pull myself away from you , i 've got a couple patients . sam : no ! mm . patrick : but i 'm not gon na be that long -- like 45 minutes , so if you want to stick around , we can go grab dinner after . sam : oh , yeah , i 'll stick around . patrick : yeah ? sam : mm - hmm . patrick : okay , perfect . i will see you in a little bit . bye . sam : bye . [ sighs ] jason : hey . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : laura , i do n't know what nikolas told you , but you must have misunderstood . laura : i overheard nikolas when he was talking to you at wyndemere . elizabeth : what ? laura : when i took little jake into the kitchen to get a cookie , he had dropped his toy , so i came back to pick it up . elizabeth : then you must have heard us out of context . laura : no . please do n't do this . after you left , i confronted nikolas , and he admitted to me that jake is jason . elizabeth : oh . oh , um ... he did n't tell me that you had spoken with him . laura : maybe he did n't want to upset you . now , listen , he made a very compelling argument about why i should keep this secret , but i am struggling with this . i - i do n't know what to do with this knowledge that you and my son are keeping from jason who he really is . elizabeth : laura , i - i have good reason for keeping quiet . i do . laura : look , i know that you love jason . he 's little jake 's father , and , of course , you want him in your life . elizabeth : he was just here . y - you were with him and you -- you did n't say anything , so d - does that mean you 're gon na keep it to yourself ? you can just pretend like you never heard nikolas and me . laura : no , honey . no . i have decided that i have to tell the truth about jason . [ scene_break ] michael : did you really think i 'd let you have elq without a fight ? it 's my great - grandfather 's legacy . he wanted it to remain under family control . now , you , see , you are nothing but an opportunist who took advantage of luke 's psychotic break . you obtained that stock through -- through blackmail , coercion , or , you know , outright theft . nikolas : o - okay . but none of that can be proven . [ chuckling ] michael , no matter how many ways you run the numbers , i have the largest block of shares , regardless of how i acquired them . there 's nothing you can do to change that . michael : taking you down has nothing to do with shares or numbers . i 'm thinking of something a little more creative to get you to surrender elq . [ scene_break ] jason : i just -- i wanted to talk to patrick about hayden . hopefully there 's an update in her condition . sam : oh , y - you know what ? um , he 's on his rounds but will be done in like 45 minutes . i was gon na wait . you 're more than welcome to wait with me . jason : yeah ? sam : yeah . we can sit over there . jason : sounds good to me . sam : okay . jason : um . [ clears throat ] hmm . you know , i - i was at elizabeth 's when , uh , patrick came by , and he pitched introducing danny to his big brother . sam : yeah , about that -- are you sure elizabeth is okay with the whole idea ? i could have sworn i heard a tone in her voice , and i just was -- jason : no , no , no . look , look , look -- i - i think that , uh -- i think elizabeth is just being a good mother . that kid has been through a lot , and she 's trying to protect him . and maybe she 's being a little bit overprotective . i do n't think she wants him to leave the house . sam : yeah . [ chuckles ] ugh , i could kill helena cassadine . that woman has caused so much pain . she let everyone believe that little jake was dead . that whole family grieved . jason : yeah . sam : i mean , especially jason . it went so deep , he could not even express it . and now ... little jake is here and jason is never gon na -- jason : you 're right . he 's here . he 's alive . he is here . and now jake and danny -- they get to grow up as brothers , and that means a lot . that 's pretty amazing . sam : you know what ? you -- you are absolutely right . i need to focus on the good and stop dwelling on what ca n't be changed . jason : what happened happened . all you can do is move on . you know , something else happened at elizabeth 's that i want to run by you . sam : oh , yeah , wh -- uh , what 's up ? jason : well , michael came to visit , and , uh , i told him about the nikolas and hayden connection . sam : oh . really ? what 'd he have to say about that ? jason : he brought up a good point -- if hayden knows who i really am , um ... maybe nikolas does , too .

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : nikolas and lucky both know that jake is really jason . everybody would be furious with them for hiding that . laura : [ scoffs ] well , that 's hardly the point . elizabeth : and especially nikolas . he 's known this for months . and right now , sam 's already mad at him for taking elq away from the quartermaines . now , she 's going to get past that , but she would never forgive him for keeping her husband away from her . do you really want nikolas to lose his -- his cousin and alexis , the entire family ? you realize everybody is going to turn against him . are you willing to make your son a pariah ? laura : you know , i think that 's a chance that i 'm willing to take . i believe my son would understand , and i think he 'd forgive me . elizabeth : well , even if he does , what good is it gon na do either of you if nikolas is in prison ? [ scene_break ] nikolas : so , what is this , uh , oh - so - creative plan of yours ? michael : maybe i 'm taking a page out of your book -- exploiting my enemy 's weakness . now , in my -- my family 's case , we mistakenly placed our trust in you . we did n't think that you would violate emily 's memory by raiding our company . and now you assume that you are securely in charge , and there 's nothing my family can use against you . nikolas : well , nothing that you could use as leverage in business . michael : are you sure about that , nikolas ? everyone has secrets . everyone . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : there 's someone else who knows the truth about jason . her name is hayden barnes . she was blackmailing nikolas , threatened to tell . she tried to make good on her threat , but moments before she told jason the truth , she got shot in the head . laura : my god . are you -- are you saying ... elizabeth : i think nikolas was responsible . laura : no . no , nikolas did n't have someone shot . he 's not capable of that . elizabeth : i - it took me a while to put it all together . but the shooting was blamed on one of sonny 's enforcers , shawn butler . it was seen as a failed attempt to kill jason , of all people . everyone just thinks the bullet went astray and accidentally hit hayden . laura : did nikolas ever say that he wanted this girl -- hayden -- dead ? elizabeth : no . no . he would n't want me implicated in the murder . anyway , after hayden got shot , i - i do n't want to say that i was relieved , but i - i could n't believe how things unfolded . nikolas was so committed to keeping jason 's identity a secret . he even had hayden move into wyndemere with him . and then the day of the shooting , this -- it was like this change came over him , and he -- he actually told hayden t - to go ahead and t - tell jason the truth . laura : [ sighs ] elizabeth : he was so -- he was so calm . and he kept reassuring me over and over again that it was all gon na work out . of course , i did n't believe him , because i did n't know how far he would go to keep hayden quiet . laura : is she dead ? elizabeth : no . no , she 's in a coma . i did n't want to think about nikolas ordering hayden shot until her condition changed . her vitals started to improve , and it looked like she might be waking up , so i -- i told nikolas this , and he -- he said that if hayden comes to , he 'll take care of it . the look in his eyes and the sound in his voice -- it was just so cold and flat . laura , i do n't -- i do n't want to believe this is true , but it all adds up . i think nikolas was behind the shooting . and this is why the truth about jason can never come out . [ scene_break ] nikolas : you 're better off admitting your failure and moving on . michael : i did n't fail . you illegally grabbed my family 's stock . nikolas : you only have yourself to blame , michael , for losing elq . i mean , if -- if you had n't spitefully taken sonny 's daughter away from him , i do n't know , maybe lucy coe would have never used her tie - breaking vote against you . michael : i 've already addressed the sonny situation . avery is back with her father . you add that to the fact that my track record as ceo is more profitable than yours , and then when we have another vote , i 'm sure lucy will actually change her mind . so enjoy your time behind my desk while you can because pretty soon , you 're gon na be out in the cold with the rest of the cassadines . [ scene_break ] sam : i know nikolas . i know that confronting him wo n't work . if he knows the truth about you , he will take it to his grave . jason : [ clears throat ] do you have any idea why my identity would be so important to him ? i mean , why would n't he just come out and tell me what he knows ? sam : no , i - i ca n't imagine why he would want to mess with someone 's life like this . jason : look , i -- i 've told you that i 'm okay with not having a past . i mean , i 'm -- i 'm content . what i have with elizabeth and her boys , it 's -- it 's pretty great . it 's amazing . i love this woman . but when michael tells me that nikolas might know who i am , i - i do n't know . something seizes me up . i get really worked up , and i -- i want to know who i am . [ scene_break ] nina : um , all right , so , you 're telling me that -- that silas , uh , was hiding ava , and he took that baby 's bone marrow so he could save her life ? franco : yeah . silas did n't want anyone to know that ava was alive , because then he 'd get in trouble for helping her escape , and then he saw avery at the hospital , and he just grabbed her . nina : he 's a son of a bitch . he kidnapped that baby , and he 's trying to pin it on me . [ scene_break ] ava : silas said he 's gon na tell kiki about us when she gets back from her trip , which means he 's not gon na do nothing about nothing tonight . morgan : oh , i 'll make sure of that . ava : you 'll have time to head him off at the pass without going postal on silas . morgan , you have got to calm down . morgan : calm -- how can you be calm ? ava : 'cause i 'm gon na figure out a way to stop this from happening without confronting silas . so you go . you go home and -- and let me work on figuring out a way to make this right by tomorrow . just promise me -- you cross your heart and hope to die -- you will not see silas tonight . morgan : okay . ava : swear it . morgan : i swear . ava : good . now go home . i have to put my thinking cap on , and that 's not very pretty . morgan : sorry , denise . ca n't keep that promise .

[ scene_break ] nina : lying bastard . he 's a liar . he took the baby . do you know , when i thought i took her , when i thought i took avery , i went right to him ? i went to him , and i told him everything that happened . he sat there , and he just listened to me , but he took the baby . he took the baby the entire time , right ? franco : yeah . nina : oh , my god . he 's a dirtbag . he is a dirtbag . i can not believe this . i ca n't believe that i -- i sat there and i talked to him and -- and i trusted him , and he went off and he said all this gratuitous , lovely stuff to me , but it was all a lie . he did n't give a damn about me . he 's trying to pin this on me . do you know he 's trying to pin this on me ? he 's -- i - it 's -- he 's trying to take me down for a crime that i did n't commit . that 's what he 's trying to do . he 's -- he 's trying to take away my life again . he 's trying to take away my life . i 'm as worthless to him now as i ever was , and he once again has chosen ava over me ! once again ! franco : he 's a hypocrite . a total hypocrite . nina : he 's not gon na get away with it . do you know that ? he 's not gon na get away with it this time . franco : no , he wo n't . wait , wait , wait , where are you going ? nina ! man : franco ! oh , you 're back ! fancy a game of `` chutes and ladders `` ? i 've been practicing . franco : i do n't have time right now . man : oh , sure there 's time . franco : no , there is n't . my friend -- i have to get -- man : y - you have time , no . we could play `` chutes and ladders `` and work our way up to `` battleship . `` franco : look over here ! nina ! [ scene_break ] jason : let 's stay focused on the task at hand -- getting nikolas out of elq and michael back in there where he belongs . sam : yeah , but if nikolas does have the knowledge about you , we can take him down in a heartbeat . we just need proof . but the only one who can do that is hayden barnes , and she 's still in a coma . jason : yeah . [ scene_break ] nikolas : as entertaining as all of your hypotheticals have been , i need to find my mother . michael : well , i actually know where she is . nikolas : could have said that to begin with . where is she ? michael : elizabeth 's . my grandmother and i were leaving while she was arriving . i 'm assuming she was there to see little jake , but when we left , she was talking to jake doe . [ scene_break ] laura : if your theory were right , the police would have already found out about this , because the bullet that hit hayden would n't match the one that 's in shawn butler 's gun . elizabeth : the investigation never got that far . shawn butler pled guilty so he could n't be used to implicate sonny . he was taken off to prison days after hayden got shot , and i 'm willing to bet that shawn 's misspent bullet is somewhere in that garage . and the bullet they took out of hayden 's head has been filed as evidence . if the truth about jason comes out , they will reopen the investigation . laura : i do n't see why . elizabeth : because sam and jason were witnesses , and they knew that hayden was on the verge of telling them something right before she got shot . and if the police figure out that she was actually the intended target , how long is it gon na take them to trace it back to nikolas ? laura : and if that were to happen and if the police were to question you , would you implicate my son ? elizabeth : it does n't have to come to that , laura . i love your son . i 'm trying to protect him , and i want you to protect him . laura : stop , please . [ groans ] oh , my god . you know -- wait a minute , wait a minute . you want the truth about jason to stay buried . do n't you think that maybe that 's coloring your judgment ? maybe nikolas is really innocent , and how do you think he would feel if he knew that you thought that he would actually have somebody shot ? elizabeth : i do n't believe he is innocent , and i do n't think you do , either . i 've had obviously a long time to think about this -- longer than you -- and i have realized that it is better for everyone , laura , especially nikolas , if jason stays jake . i 'm gon na go check on my boys . i need you to think about this , because this is n't a case of right and wrong . the wrong was already done long before we ever got involved . it 's about doing the best we can for the people we love , okay ? laura : [ sighs ] oh .

[ scene_break ] jason : do you think , uh , there 's another place that nikolas might keep sensitive documents , besides the wyndemere safe ? i mean , maybe a safe - deposit box ? something ? sam : um , i do n't know , but i can definitely check it out . patrick : sam . sam : oh . patrick : hi . sam : you caught me . it 's just a snack . i 'm -- i 'm still gon na want dinner .

[ sighs ] what thomas was doing to hope . it -- it just looked like she was in trouble . liam : she was in trouble . brooke : i know . but hope says -- liam : we got to stop giving this guy the benefit of the doubt . the fact of the matter is , thomas was not safe to be around . i mean , is -- i - is he even unconscious right now ? or is he just doing whatever he can not to face the music ? hope : liam , i think the doctor would be able to tell that . liam : the doctor does n't know who he 's dealing with . we do . shauna : i hope you never have to sit at a dirty table in a windowless jail and wonder if your only child will ever see the light of day again . quinn : i do n't foresee that happening . shauna : you think i did ? quinn : are you saying that you thought she would get away with it ? shauna : quinn , i am so ashamed to come begging . i have nobody else to turn to . do you have any idea what that 's like ? you 're a forrester . you 're the only one in that family that knows the real flo . quinn : do i ? i mean , come on , shauna . i have been in some tough spots in my life , but ... to steal another woman 's baby and try and sell it ? shauna : that 's not what flo did . at all . flo : could there be some mistake ? the only visitor i 'd have is my mom , and she already came . det . sanchez : thank you , deputy . i wo n't be too long here . thought you 'd make bail . flo : well , she likes to talk like she has money . it 's a little trick you learn in vegas . det . sanchez : you learn a lot about bluffing in my business , too . flo : well , you wo n't have to deal with that with me . det . sanchez : i 'm glad . a little cooperation could do us both a world of good . shauna : i never laid eyes on this dr . buckingham . but flo was a victim . just like eric 's granddaughter was . quinn : you got to stop right there . i have been trying to withhold judgment . i need details . i need specifics . what you and flo knew , and when . det . sanchez : ms. fulton , we still do n't have an attorney on record for you . your mother insisted we could n't question you without one . flo : she wants to protect me . but i 'm not a minor . i 'm an adult . i am fine with a court - appointed attorney . and in the meantime , you can question me about whatever you want . a lawyer being here is not gon na change my answers . hope : should we do something about this ? brooke : no . there 's no love lost between those two , that 's for sure . but i do n't see the difference of him standing in there or standing out here . hope : well , i mean -- brooke : oh , what did the doctor say ? ridge : he 's gon na tell me when he has news , good or bad . where 's liam ? brooke : he 's in with thomas . ridge : and you thought that was a good idea ? liam : i wonder how many broken bones you have . i bet radiology is still counting .

[ quinn sighs ] i mean , even you said that , quinn . and i 'm not trying to make excuses . i 'm sorry . i thought i did what was best for my daughter . can you honestly say that you would n't have done the same thing ? [ recorder beeps ] det . sanchez : detective alex sanchez interviewing florence fulton . can you tell me , at what point did you realize that what reese buckingham was asking of you was n't just an innocent favor ? flo : when i saw the birth certificate . well , i mean , it was -- it was really official - looking , and it said that i - i gave birth at some medical center in las vegas on some date , and was cared for by some doctor that i 'd never met . i mean , it was all lies , obviously . the same lie i 'd been telling , only it was , uh , right there , all detailed in black and white . and there were some other , um -- there were some other papers that he had there , too . i do n't remember how many . det . sanchez : did dr . buckingham tell you where he got the forged documents from ? flo : he said it was better if i did n't know . and at the time , i was so shocked because i had just gotten the story out of him about where the baby really came from , and ...

[ scene_break ] carly : lorenzo , when i got up and walked across to the swings during the ceremony , i mean , did you see a little boy playing there that -- that i could 've mistaken for michael ? lorenzo : i had a pretty clear view . no one was there . carly : you know , it was probably just one of those memories that feels so real that you feel like you could touch it . you know , he played on those swings a thousand times , and i 'm sure that just being here made him seem real for me in my mind . lorenzo : it 's not so bad , is it ? [ scene_break ] reese : at least nine men are dead , all from the sandoval crime family -- just like the men who attacked you at kelly 's . here 's the clincher -- jason , who would seem to have the strongest motive for wanting revenge , was at the metro court restaurant when six of them were slaughtered . did you know anything about that ? sam : no , i have no idea what you 're talking about . reese : that 's some coincidence . prepare yourself , because jason will not walk away from this one . [ scene_break ] ric : sonny ? we need to talk to you about the murders of multiple members of the sandoval family . john : you could n't have come up with a better tribute to michael . you just took yourself and your enforcer out of the equation for good . hey , genius ? pay attention . you did n't just wipe out the sandoval family . you killed innocent people , including your own sister . [ scene_break ] steven : excellent . nice work , guys . bring her right on through to trauma -- one . elizabeth : okay , i 'll call another doctor . steven : it 's fine , liz . elizabeth : no , steven -- steven : no , i got it , i got it ! elizabeth : you can not work on her ! monica : uh , anybody need me for a consult ? steven : yeah , doctor . rachel adair was just brought in on a stretcher . she 's got a gunshot wound , and it looks like it 's critical . she and i have a personal history , so i ca n't be the one to treat her . monica : okay , fine , i will handle it . steven : trauma room one . monica : yeah . steven : come here , come here . okay , that was completely unnecessary , not to mention the last thing i needed ! elizabeth : what is your problem ? steven : do you think that i need the chief of staff 's wife to know that i have a personal history with rachel ? elizabeth : okay , i was n't trying to put you on the spot . i was just trying to keep you from making a potential mistake , steven . steven : yeah , i know . i know that . it 's just that it 's -- it 's complicated ! elizabeth : what 's the deal ? i do n't understand . rachel seems to be a really nice girl , and you keep acting like your history is some deep , shameful secret . [ pager beeps ] [ steven sighs ] steven : it 's the pcpd . oh , got to go to a crime scene . look , i 'm sorry about all this . can you do me a favor and stick around , keep close by , and let me know what happens with rachel ? elizabeth : mm - hmm . sure .

[ scene_break ] ric : lansing . john : so was murdering your sister part of the plan ? seems a little cold even for you , sonny . ric : apparently , you were misinformed , durant . courtney matthews was , indeed , at the metro court restaurant , but according to the officers at the scene , she was not hurt . another woman , unfortunately , was hit -- dr. rachel adair . she 's been taken to general hospital . she 's in critical condition . john : well , well , well . are n't i impressed ? such sibling solidarity . are you officially on sonny 's payroll now , or just risking your job as d.a . to cover for your brother in an act of altruism ? ric : i resent the implication , durant . see , unlike you , i 'm trying to collect facts ; i 'm not leaping to conclusions . if i find out that sonny had anything to do with this , i will prosecute him -- with a smile on my face . [ scene_break ] reese : can i speak to you alone , carly ? lorenzo : i wo n't be far . reese : oh , mr. alcazar ? you would n't happen to know anything about multiple hits against the sandoval crime family today , would you ? lorenzo : not a thing . reese : you know , somehow i knew you were going to say that . lorenzo : anything else ? reese : not at this moment . so the sandovals have been wiped out during your playground dedication . could you tell me again how -- how this ceremony was not a prearranged alibi for sonny while he eliminated his rivals ? carly : i do n't know anything about this . reese : are you happy that your son 's memory was exploited in this way , carly ? carly : you do not know what you 're talking about . reese : yeah , i know sonny did this . and i tried to help , but why should he listen to me ? i 'm just a fed , just another enemy . you know , you might have had some influence . you might have been able to save sonny from himself . why the hell did n't you ? [ scene_break ] ric : wait a minute ; i thought you were going to take kristina home . alexis : i wanted to make sure that i was n't giving in to my paranoia about sonny . you did n't look surprised at all when you got that phone call , did you ? you knew this was going to happen .

[ scene_break ] sam : courtney . hey . i heard you were at the hotel when those guys were shot . courtney : yeah . great timing , huh ? sam : are you okay ? courtney : this is n't my blood . it 's -- it 's rachel adair 's . do you know her ? sam : no , i do n't think so . courtney : yeah , she 's a doctor . she works here . she had just joined me and jax for lunch when the gunmen opened fire . correction -- when sonny 's gunmen opened fire . sam , they killed a table full of people just like that , in the middle of the afternoon at a public restaurant . people died . people got hurt having lunch , and jason knew about it . god , he probably planned the whole thing . obviously , it does n't bother you . you have the stomach for it . well , you know what ? i 'm not like you . i 'm not . jason expects me to cover for him once again , and -- sam : no , no , no , jason was at that restaurant because of you . we were at the playground dedication and we had every intention of staying there , but carly told him that you were at the metro court and he took off after you to save you . jason knew what he was getting himself into . he knew that he could be blamed for the shooting , but he went after you anyway . courtney : what am i supposed to say to that ? sam : i do n't know , courtney . nothing , i guess . [ scene_break ] alan : have you seen monica ? elizabeth : she 's with the gsw from the hotel shooting . alan : okay . as soon as monica 's available , please tell her to call me or come to the office . tracy : oh , my darling , you do n't have to bother monica . she 's busy saving lives . would you excuse us ? let 's not bother her with domestic trivia . step right in there , my office , would you , please ? if you are even thinking of telling monica that you were the one that hit ric and alexis ' car , i will personally have you lobotomized . alan : do you have any idea what 's going on in this town ? there is complete chaos . sonny killed god knows how many people in the middle of a restaurant , and i 'm sure he was ably assisted by my son jason . tracy : what does that have to do with you ? alan : jason 's the perfect assassin . he has no conscience , he has no remorse , and that is not going to be me . tracy : oh . you 're the one that 's going to lose your medical license and go to prison instead . great idea ! [ scene_break ] jax : i hope i 'm not sticking my nose into where it does n't belong , but -- elizabeth : i 'll let you know if you are . jax : okay . i was just wondering why steven refused to treat rachel . elizabeth : breach of ethics . they were romantically involved a few years ago . jax : rachel and steven ? elizabeth : mm - hmm . jax : well , that certainly makes sense . [ scene_break ] officer : ms. matthews ? i need to ask a few follow - up questions regarding the shooting . [ scene_break ] steven : let me guess -- you 're being held for questioning . no answer ? what , is this is because you 're a stone - cold pro , right ? okay , i just got to wonder , why were you even here ? are n't you supposed to be out in some nice , public , open space when the hit goes down surrounded by fine , upstanding citizens ? what happened ? what happened ? did something go wrong to make you lose your legendary cool ? was it the death of michael corinthos ? is that what happened ? because anyone could understand that , the way that little guy died ! jason : you better shut up about michael . [ scene_break ] a.j . : come on , michael . just hang in there , okay ? you ca n't -- you ca n't die . i 've worked so hard to get you back . it was n't easy . took a lot of arranging and some coordinating and dealing with psychos like faith rosco . not that you were ever in trouble . you were n't , not even for a minute . not until the plane crashed . even that turned out to be a blessing in disguise . you saved my life . look , i know you 're sick and you should probably be in the hospital , but if i take you , you might get recognized . and then the authorities would get involved and they would notify sonny and your mom , and they 'd put on this -- this big show about wanting you back . and even if they do n't -- not -- not like i do . not like i do , michael . you 're where you belong . you 're with your father . we 're going to have the time of our lives , you and me . sky 's the limit . that 's why you got to hang in there , okay , just a little longer . i got a helicopter coming to pick us up . they 're going to take us home . i have a doctor there . he 's waiting , he 's going to fix you up , make you as good as new . everything -- everything 's going to work out . this time . this -- this one time . for the first time in my whole stinking , miserable life , things have to work out .

[ scene_break ] courtney : i intended to go to the playground dedication after i went to lunch with jax , but when we got to the hotel , we found out that the restaurant was booked for a private party . jax owns the metro court , so we sat down anyway , and rachel joined us shortly after that . officer : what about jason morgan ? had you arranged to meet him there ? courtney : yes . jax : you never mentioned that . courtney : i know , and i feel really silly about it , jax . it 's just i 've been a little jealous lately because you 've been paying so much attention to rachel . so i asked jason to come by the restaurant and pick me up for the ceremony . it was a petty and juvenile move , and i deeply regret it . but the fact remains jason was at the restaurant to meet me . [ scene_break ] carly : i can not tell you how sick i am of having the same argument with you . why ca n't you ever hear me ? sonny and i were married for a very long time . it may not have been easy , but there was a lot of love and it was real . is any of this getting through to you ? no , i guess not . okay , you want to make sonny your perpetual target ? fine , i guess i ca n't do anything to stop you . but do n't you think for one second that i 'm going to thank you or that i believe you 're doing it in my name , because you 're not . you 're not trying to protect me , dad . this is all about you and your professional interests . john : you could n't be more wrong , carly . i 'm just trying to save my daughter 's life and the life of my remaining grandson , and i am not going to stop until i 've accomplished that goal . now , if you hate me for that , i 'm genuinely sorry about it . so be it . sonny : you okay ? carly : i hope you know what you 're doing . sonny : i do . carly : really ? sonny : yeah . carly : then what the hell is going on right now ? why did jason run off ? why did courtney nearly get shot and killed ? if whatever you 're supposed to be doing right now is supposed to make our family safer , you tell me , why are the people that i love more at risk than ever ? sonny : hey , hey [ scene_break ] alexis : you knew that sonny was going to wage war on a mob rival today . you knew that they might retaliate . you knew that he was a sitting duck . and yet you brought my daughter here anyway . ric : it was a public ceremony , alexis , all right ? there were three city council members that were present . kristina was n't in any danger . alexis : who do you think you 're talking to ? her father , your brother , is a target , as is anyone and everyone around him . she could 've been sitting on his lap today and been shot . and there was nothing he could do about it . and you did n't care . all you cared about was scoring a point with your brother . ric : i resent that . i brought kristina here because sonny wanted her here and because i thought that i would abide by the custody agreement that -- alexis : making my daughter a target is not part of any agreement ! ric : will you take a step back just for a second and look at this thing objectively ? i had no ulterior motive other than offering him an olive branch so that you could retain primary custody of kristina . alexis : given what happened today , primary custody is not nearly good enough . [ scene_break ] jax : look , i figured out that there was something wrong with you and rachel , but i did n't realize that she made you feel so insecure you had to pay me back by calling jason . courtney : no , no , no , jax , i was being ridiculous . please do n't remind me . jax : well , it 's just not like you . i mean , you know , you really have n't been yourself since rachel 's been around . it 's like you 're afraid of her . and you refuse to tell me why . monica : we 're about to take rachel to o.r . she needs surgery . courtney : well , is she going to live ? monica : well , her condition is critical , but i 'm hopeful . courtney : may i see her ? monica : i do n't see why not . courtney : thank you .

[ scene_break ] woman : the new structure will triple the capacity of the play area , while eliminating hazards posed by the present outdated equipment . woman : construction begins tomorrow on the new play structure , which is scheduled to be completed by early summer . so when you see children swinging and laughing , enjoying their day and just being kids , think of michael . thank you .

[ scene_break ] alexis : okay , you obviously have to leave , and i 'm going to take her home where she 's safe . ric : yeah , good . alexis : you 'll keep me informed ? ric : i will . come on . sonny : hey . what ? you going to -- you going to leave without letting me kiss my daughter goodbye ? alexis : here you go . bobbie : how about i take morgan over there for a last ride on the swings ? carly : yeah , i think that 'd be great . thanks . bobbie : okay . come on . let 's go for a ride on the swings . carly : here , give him this . bobbie : oh . thank you . good idea . lorenzo : carly . carly : hey . lorenzo : how you holding up ? carly : okay . i saw you during the ceremony across the park there . you did n't come join us . lorenzo : on a good day , there 's tension between me and sonny . i did n't want to spoil the dedication for you . carly : that 's very considerate , lorenzo , but you 're important to me and you have every right to be here . lorenzo : well , thanks for the sentiment . why did you get up and walk to the swings in the middle of the ceremony ? carly : oh . it 's -- it 's crazy . i thought i saw michael . it was so real , and for an instant , i just thought this whole thing was a mistake and my little boy had come home . [ scene_break ] jax : courtney ? courtney , talk to me . courtney : jax . jax : oh , thank god . i thought i 'd lost you . courtney : my god . jax : are you hurt ? courtney : what happened ? jax : you 're bleeding . courtney : what happened ? jax : you 're bleeding . courtney : no . no , it 's -- it 's not mine . oh , my god . jax : want me to help you up ? courtney : i 'm okay . jax : come on . there . courtney : oh , my god . rachel . the last thing i remember is you grabbing me and throwing me to the floor . what -- ofc . murphy : all right , who wants to go first ? jax : um -- the elevator opened , a couple of men stepped off , and they opened fire . ofc . murphy : is that what you saw ? courtney : i had my back to the elevator . the first i knew anything was wrong was when jax threw me on the ground . ofc . murphy : what are you doing here ? jax : well , is n't that obvious ? he ordered the shooting . he was here to make sure it got done . ofc . murphy : did you witness mr. morgan firing a weapon at anyone ? jax : no . i hit my head . i must have blacked out . ofc . murphy : you did n't answer my question . jason : i -- i came to get courtney . they 're dedicating a park in her nephew 's honor . ofc . murphy : that true ? courtney : i was supposed to go to the ceremony , but i got delayed . paramedic : officer murphy , we 're transporting the patient out of here . courtney : her name 's rachel adair . look , she does n't have anyone . i 'd like to ride with her . jax : wait a minute , maybe you should see a doctor . are we free to go ? ofc . murphy : yeah . i 'll be in touch . hey . you , with me . come on . logan , what you got ? ids . ofc . logan : armando sandoval , val diamond , and associates . ofc . murphy : is n't that a coincidence ? the guys who hit kelly 's the other night -- they worked for sandoval , right ? did you order this massacre as payback for what happened to sam ? [ scene_break ] carly : lorenzo , when i got up and walked across to the swings during the ceremony , i mean , did you see a little boy playing there that -- that i could 've mistaken for michael ? lorenzo : i had a pretty clear view . no one was there . carly : you know , it was probably just one of those memories that feels so real that you feel like you could touch it . you know , he played on those swings a thousand times , and i 'm sure that just being here made him seem real for me in my mind . lorenzo : it 's not so bad , is it ? [ scene_break ] reese : at least nine men are dead , all from the sandoval crime family -- just like the men who attacked you at kelly 's . here 's the clincher -- jason , who would seem to have the strongest motive for wanting revenge , was at the metro court restaurant when six of them were slaughtered . did you know anything about that ? sam : no , i have no idea what you 're talking about . reese : that 's some coincidence . prepare yourself , because jason will not walk away from this one . [ scene_break ] ric : sonny ? we need to talk to you about the murders of multiple members of the sandoval family . john : you could n't have come up with a better tribute to michael . you just took yourself and your enforcer out of the equation for good . hey , genius ? pay attention . you did n't just wipe out the sandoval family . you killed innocent people , including your own sister . [ scene_break ] steven : excellent . nice work , guys . bring her right on through to trauma -- one . elizabeth : okay , i 'll call another doctor . steven : it 's fine , liz . elizabeth : no , steven -- steven : no , i got it , i got it ! elizabeth : you can not work on her ! monica : uh , anybody need me for a consult ? steven : yeah , doctor . rachel adair was just brought in on a stretcher . she 's got a gunshot wound , and it looks like it 's critical . she and i have a personal history , so i ca n't be the one to treat her . monica : okay , fine , i will handle it . steven : trauma room one . monica : yeah . steven : come here , come here . okay , that was completely unnecessary , not to mention the last thing i needed ! elizabeth : what is your problem ? steven : do you think that i need the chief of staff 's wife to know that i have a personal history with rachel ? elizabeth : okay , i was n't trying to put you on the spot . i was just trying to keep you from making a potential mistake , steven . steven : yeah , i know . i know that . it 's just that it 's -- it 's complicated ! elizabeth : what 's the deal ? i do n't understand . rachel seems to be a really nice girl , and you keep acting like your history is some deep , shameful secret . [ pager beeps ] [ steven sighs ] steven : it 's the pcpd . oh , got to go to a crime scene . look , i 'm sorry about all this . can you do me a favor and stick around , keep close by , and let me know what happens with rachel ? elizabeth : mm - hmm . sure . [ scene_break ] jax : when i came to and i saw you lying there covered in blood , i thought i 'd lost you . i love you , courtney . i ca n't imagine what my life would be like without you . courtney : i love you , too , jax . [ scene_break ] ric : lansing . john : so was murdering your sister part of the plan ? seems a little cold even for you , sonny . ric : apparently , you were misinformed , durant . courtney matthews was , indeed , at the metro court restaurant , but according to the officers at the scene , she was not hurt . another woman , unfortunately , was hit -- dr. rachel adair . she 's been taken to general hospital . she 's in critical condition . john : well , well , well . are n't i impressed ? such sibling solidarity . are you officially on sonny 's payroll now , or just risking your job as d.a . to cover for your brother in an act of altruism ? ric : i resent the implication , durant . see , unlike you , i 'm trying to collect facts ; i 'm not leaping to conclusions . if i find out that sonny had anything to do with this , i will prosecute him -- with a smile on my face . [ scene_break ] reese : can i speak to you alone , carly ? lorenzo : i wo n't be far . reese : oh , mr. alcazar ? you would n't happen to know anything about multiple hits against the sandoval crime family today , would you ? lorenzo : not a thing . reese : you know , somehow i knew you were going to say that . lorenzo : anything else ? reese : not at this moment . so the sandovals have been wiped out during your playground dedication . could you tell me again how -- how this ceremony was not a prearranged alibi for sonny while he eliminated his rivals ? carly : i do n't know anything about this . reese : are you happy that your son 's memory was exploited in this way , carly ? carly : you do not know what you 're talking about . reese : yeah , i know sonny did this . and i tried to help , but why should he listen to me ? i 'm just a fed , just another enemy . you know , you might have had some influence . you might have been able to save sonny from himself . why the hell did n't you ? [ scene_break ] ric : wait a minute ; i thought you were going to take kristina home . alexis : i wanted to make sure that i was n't giving in to my paranoia about sonny . you did n't look surprised at all when you got that phone call , did you ? you knew this was going to happen . [ scene_break ] sonny : you want to question me , i 'm not going to say anything unless my attorney 's present . [ scene_break ] john : sonny 's men just opened fire at the metro court hotel , where jasper jacks just happened to be having lunch with courtney , your best friend , his own sister . she could 've been killed . is this hitting close enough to home for you yet , carly ? sonny 's finally crossed the line . you know it . now , for yourself , for morgan , and in honor of michael , walk away . [ scene_break ] sam : courtney . hey . i heard you were at the hotel when those guys were shot . courtney : yeah . great timing , huh ? sam : are you okay ? courtney : this is n't my blood . it 's -- it 's rachel adair 's . do you know her ? sam : no , i do n't think so . courtney : yeah , she 's a doctor . she works here . she had just joined me and jax for lunch when the gunmen opened fire . correction -- when sonny 's gunmen opened fire . sam , they killed a table full of people just like that , in the middle of the afternoon at a public restaurant . people died . people got hurt having lunch , and jason knew about it . god , he probably planned the whole thing . obviously , it does n't bother you . you have the stomach for it . well , you know what ? i 'm not like you . i 'm not . jason expects me to cover for him once again , and -- sam : no , no , no , jason was at that restaurant because of you . we were at the playground dedication and we had every intention of staying there , but carly told him that you were at the metro court and he took off after you to save you . jason knew what he was getting himself into . he knew that he could be blamed for the shooting , but he went after you anyway . courtney : what am i supposed to say to that ? sam : i do n't know , courtney . nothing , i guess . [ scene_break ] alan : have you seen monica ? elizabeth : she 's with the gsw from the hotel shooting . alan : okay . as soon as monica 's available , please tell her to call me or come to the office . tracy : oh , my darling , you do n't have to bother monica . she 's busy saving lives . would you excuse us ? let 's not bother her with domestic trivia . step right in there , my office , would you , please ? if you are even thinking of telling monica that you were the one that hit ric and alexis ' car , i will personally have you lobotomized . alan : do you have any idea what 's going on in this town ? there is complete chaos . sonny killed god knows how many people in the middle of a restaurant , and i 'm sure he was ably assisted by my son jason . tracy : what does that have to do with you ? alan : jason 's the perfect assassin . he has no conscience , he has no remorse , and that is not going to be me . tracy : oh . you 're the one that 's going to lose your medical license and go to prison instead . great idea ! [ scene_break ] jax : i hope i 'm not sticking my nose into where it does n't belong , but -- elizabeth : i 'll let you know if you are . jax : okay . i was just wondering why steven refused to treat rachel . elizabeth : breach of ethics . they were romantically involved a few years ago . jax : rachel and steven ? elizabeth : mm - hmm . jax : well , that certainly makes sense . [ scene_break ] officer : ms. matthews ? i need to ask a few follow - up questions regarding the shooting . [ scene_break ] steven : let me guess -- you 're being held for questioning . no answer ? what , is this is because you 're a stone - cold pro , right ? okay , i just got to wonder , why were you even here ? are n't you supposed to be out in some nice , public , open space when the hit goes down surrounded by fine , upstanding citizens ? what happened ? what happened ? did something go wrong to make you lose your legendary cool ? was it the death of michael corinthos ? is that what happened ? because anyone could understand that , the way that little guy died ! jason : you better shut up about michael . [ scene_break ] a.j . : come on , michael . just hang in there , okay ? you ca n't -- you ca n't die . i 've worked so hard to get you back . it was n't easy . took a lot of arranging and some coordinating and dealing with psychos like faith rosco . not that you were ever in trouble . you were n't , not even for a minute . not until the plane crashed . even that turned out to be a blessing in disguise . you saved my life . look , i know you 're sick and you should probably be in the hospital , but if i take you , you might get recognized . and then the authorities would get involved and they would notify sonny and your mom , and they 'd put on this -- this big show about wanting you back . and even if they do n't -- not -- not like i do . not like i do , michael . you 're where you belong . you 're with your father . we 're going to have the time of our lives , you and me . sky 's the limit . that 's why you got to hang in there , okay , just a little longer . i got a helicopter coming to pick us up . they 're going to take us home . i have a doctor there . he 's waiting , he 's going to fix you up , make you as good as new . everything -- everything 's going to work out . this time . this -- this one time . for the first time in my whole stinking , miserable life , things have to work out . [ scene_break ] steven : hey . reese : hey . steven : okay , officers respond , come off the elevator with the paramedics to find six members of the sandoval crime family dead at the table . jason morgan is at another table , applying first aid to another gunshot victim , dr. rachel adair . reese : any witness statements ? steven : jasper jacks said that two men just came in and opened fire . everyone dove for cover . he hit his head . that 's all he remembers . reese : so did jax mention seeing jason in the restaurant when the shooting started ? steven : well , he never saw jason arrive , but he also said he never saw jason with a gun . reese : yeah , of course not . do you have a reason to be here ? jason : i told officer murphy i came to get courtney for the playground dedication . reese : did ms. matthews corroborate ? ofc . murphy : she did n't contradict it . she did n't elaborate , either . reese : did you test morgan for gunpowder residue ? steven : yeah , those tests came back negative . reese : okay , i tell you what -- i 'm going to send an officer down to general hospital to take a statement from courtney . if it matches yours , you 're free to go . if it does n't , murphy , arrest him on charges of murder . [ scene_break ] tracy : you were driving drunk . you left the scene of an accident . if you confess now , you will be throwing away the rest of your life . alan : ric and alexis could have been killed . tracy : they were n't ! it does n't matter ! and nary a serious injury between the two of them . and may i add that they are not out there demanding justice . good god , alan , know when to leave well enough alone . monica : elizabeth said you wanted to see me . what are you doing here ? tracy : alan and i were discussing whether or not we should , um , donate to michael 's memorial playground . i personally think it 's a good idea . alan , however , does n't want to support anything having to do with sonny . care to weigh in ? monica : well , actually , i think it 's a nonissue . i ca n't imagine sonny or carly allowing us to do anything . tracy : good point . monica : and why are you interested in michael ? you did n't pay any attention to him when he was alive . tracy : contrary to public opinion , i am capable of feeling compassion . my brother alan loves michael . i love my brother alan . whether you believe it or not . monica : she 's kidding , right ? alan : what do you mean ? monica : come on , alan . i 've been a quartermaine most of my life . when tracy starts preaching family solidarity and sisterly devotion , you know there 's trouble . alan : look , if you want something to worry about , worry about your precious jason . apparently , he killed several mobsters today right in the middle of a restaurant . [ scene_break ] courtney : i intended to go to the playground dedication after i went to lunch with jax , but when we got to the hotel , we found out that the restaurant was booked for a private party . jax owns the metro court , so we sat down anyway , and rachel joined us shortly after that . officer : what about jason morgan ? had you arranged to meet him there ? courtney : yes . jax : you never mentioned that . courtney : i know , and i feel really silly about it , jax . it 's just i 've been a little jealous lately because you 've been paying so much attention to rachel . so i asked jason to come by the restaurant and pick me up for the ceremony . it was a petty and juvenile move , and i deeply regret it . but the fact remains jason was at the restaurant to meet me . [ scene_break ] carly : i can not tell you how sick i am of having the same argument with you . why ca n't you ever hear me ? sonny and i were married for a very long time . it may not have been easy , but there was a lot of love and it was real . is any of this getting through to you ? no , i guess not . okay , you want to make sonny your perpetual target ? fine , i guess i ca n't do anything to stop you . but do n't you think for one second that i 'm going to thank you or that i believe you 're doing it in my name , because you 're not . you 're not trying to protect me , dad . this is all about you and your professional interests . john : you could n't be more wrong , carly . i 'm just trying to save my daughter 's life and the life of my remaining grandson , and i am not going to stop until i 've accomplished that goal . now , if you hate me for that , i 'm genuinely sorry about it . so be it . sonny : you okay ? carly : i hope you know what you 're doing . sonny : i do . carly : really ? sonny : yeah . carly : then what the hell is going on right now ? why did jason run off ? why did courtney nearly get shot and killed ? if whatever you 're supposed to be doing right now is supposed to make our family safer , you tell me , why are the people that i love more at risk than ever ? sonny : hey , hey [ scene_break ] alexis : you knew that sonny was going to wage war on a mob rival today . you knew that they might retaliate . you knew that he was a sitting duck . and yet you brought my daughter here anyway . ric : it was a public ceremony , alexis , all right ? there were three city council members that were present . kristina was n't in any danger . alexis : who do you think you 're talking to ? her father , your brother , is a target , as is anyone and everyone around him . she could 've been sitting on his lap today and been shot . and there was nothing he could do about it . and you did n't care . all you cared about was scoring a point with your brother . ric : i resent that . i brought kristina here because sonny wanted her here and because i thought that i would abide by the custody agreement that -- alexis : making my daughter a target is not part of any agreement ! ric : will you take a step back just for a second and look at this thing objectively ? i had no ulterior motive other than offering him an olive branch so that you could retain primary custody of kristina . alexis : given what happened today , primary custody is not nearly good enough . [ scene_break ] jax : look , i figured out that there was something wrong with you and rachel , but i did n't realize that she made you feel so insecure you had to pay me back by calling jason . courtney : no , no , no , jax , i was being ridiculous . please do n't remind me . jax : well , it 's just not like you . i mean , you know , you really have n't been yourself since rachel 's been around . it 's like you 're afraid of her . and you refuse to tell me why . monica : we 're about to take rachel to o.r . she needs surgery . courtney : well , is she going to live ? monica : well , her condition is critical , but i 'm hopeful . courtney : may i see her ? monica : i do n't see why not . courtney : thank you . [ scene_break ] lorenzo : you seem preoccupied . did reese say something to upset you ? carly : well , she said something that hit home . i wanted this day to be special . i wanted it to be a gift for michael , not a cover for a mob war . lorenzo : well , i never thought i 'd be in a position of defending sonny , but from a professional standpoint , it 's a brilliant tactical move . if he gets away with it , you , morgan , and kristina will be a lot safer . carly : okay , you know , i get why , i get why he would do it . but i hate what 's going to happen now . you know , my father is like this mad dog , and he is going to go after sonny because his life 's goal is to put him in prison . he 's going to use this for all its worth , and -- i 'm not doing this . i 'm not going there . i need to focus on my life . i need to rebuild a future for my son , for my -- [ phone rings ] lorenzo : excuse me . yes ? where are you ? i 'll be there right away . i 'm sorry , i have to go . carly : sounds urgent . lorenzo : it 's just something i need to take care of . i 'll call you .
