[ scene_break ] molly : so , have you gotten used to the idea of your mom working for the jeromes ? i know you hated it when she first told you . tj : yeah . i mean , i was less than supportive when she broke the news , but she does n't know anything about the jeromes or their reputation . and she was so excited about the gig -- you know , working in a swanky art gallery -- i did n't have it in me to give her a hard time . but shawn [ chuckles ] shawn 's a different story . [ scene_break ] jordan : yeah , i dealt drugs , and i got busted . i lost my son for the longest two years of my life . do you really think that i would make that mistake again ? i 'm finally back in thomas ' life . i would n't risk losing him a second time ! shawn : if you really meant that , you 'd run away from the jeromes ' new business as fast and as far as you could . jordan : managing the art gallery has nothing to do with drugs . and i like the job . i do . i need it so i can stay in town and be near thomas . shawn : how do you think tj 's gon na take it when he finds out the real reason you came to live with me ? you blamed that poor boy . you had him thinking it was his fault you sent him away -- said he was acting out , and you could n't handle it . jordan : that was true . shawn : that 's bull ! you blamed it on tj getting in trouble , but it was you . jordan : are you -- are you threatening me ? is that like an ultimatum -- i quit or you tell thomas about me ? [ scene_break ] julian : look , the gallery 's closed , morgan , so get the hell out of here . morgan : no ! you want to hear this . julian : why would i listen to you , huh ? you 're a callow brat who turned on me and ran back to his father , screaming like a little girl . you 've been working with him ever since to take me down . morgan : you 're wrong , okay ? i 'm not the one that 's been working to take you down . ava is . [ scene_break ] ava : why would i know anything about carlos ' problems with aj ? kiki : because you work with carlos . you 've been friends with carlos . well , actually , you 've been friends with carlos for a very long time , but i did n't even know he existed , which was one of your many kept secrets from me . ava : oh , kiki , please . kiki : no . my last thing is that carlos must have been mad at aj -- mad enough to shoot him , right ? and since you and carlos are close , i figured he might have told you why . ava : where is this coming from , hmm ? kiki : to tell you the truth , i 'm trying to help michael . he 's desperate for answers about his father , and as far as he was concerned , carlos and aj did n't even know each other . i was hoping that you could help me shed some light on their relationship . so , please , tell me anything that you know . ava : i do n't know anything . i was n't involved in any of it . i 've just been trying to get my gallery off the ground . i - i have n't even seen carlos in months . kiki : what are n't you telling me ? carlos : you told me ... if i told anyone you sent me to kill aj quartermaine before he realized you killed connie falconeri , sabrina would pay the price . ava : whatever carlos tells the police , i can assure you it will have nothing to do with me . [ scene_break ] anna : hey . you 're not going into the interrogation room . you honestly think your presence in there is gon na help me get the truth out of mr. rivera ? michael : he 's my father . i have a right to know why he was killed . anna : well , yeah , and you will , but not while i 'm taking his confession . come on , michael . just wait here . carlos : well ? i told you i 'm not saying another word until i know how sabrina is . anna : yeah . carlos : how badly was she injured in that car wreck ? anna : i spoke to the hospital . sabrina 's in stable condition . carlos : the baby ? anna : well , the baby 's 15 weeks premature . he 's fighting for his life . carlos : [ crying ] anna : are you okay ? carlos : [ sniffles ] yeah . yeah . let 's do this . [ recorder beeps ] anna : this is commissioner anna devane . it is april 29 , 2014 . i am taking the official statement of carlos rivera in the shooting and subsequent death of alan quartermaine , jr. mr. rivera , you do understand that by making this statement , you waive your right to have an attorney present ? carlos : yes . anna : would you please tell me in your own words how and why you shot mr. quartermaine ? carlos , i want the truth . ava : do you grasp what i 'm saying ? i hope so , for sabrina 's sake . anything less than complete understanding could be fatal . carlos : the truth ? the truth is ... all about sabrina . [ scene_break ] franco : michael will get answers . they just wo n't be the right ones . carly : we know for a fact carlos did n't shoot aj . why the hell is he confessing ? franco : ava must be forcing him . i 'm telling you , when we were in those cells , carlos was terrified that ava was gon na hurt sabrina and the baby . carly : so terrified that he 's willing to go to prison for the rest of his life ? franco : yeah , but to protect the woman that he loves ? come on . i totally get that . [ scene_break ] anna : how is aj 's death about sabrina ? carlos : when sabrina got pregnant , i did n't trust dr. drake to step up and do the right thing . i wanted to make sure that her and her baby were taken care of . working for the jeromes , i barely make enough to live off of . instead of crawling to them and begging for a raise , i decided to make a little money on the side . obviously , i 'm not gon na tell either one of my bosses that . they would n't like that too much . anna : i see . go on . carlos : everybody knows that the quartermaines are the richest family in town , so i decided to do a quick little b & e -- bust in , bust open the safe , grab some cash , whatever else is worth anything , get the hell out of there . i thought the place was empty , but it was n't . aj was there . i could n't get out of there without him seeing my face . i could n't get caught . if i go to jail , how 's that gon na help sabrina ? so i knew i had to shoot him . but i was n't quick enough . tracy quartermaine smashed me on the back of the head . i dropped my gun , and it forced me to run . anna : leaving your gun and aj very much alive . carlos : not for long . anna : you say you killed aj , yet he was shot with julian 's gun in ava 's penthouse . how do you explain that ? [ scene_break ] olivia : duke was here earlier , and we had a talk , and -- and he really helped me work through some things , you know , in my -- in my head and in my heart . sonny : how ? olivia : he explained to me how -- how sometimes he has to hide some things from anna , you know , in their conflicting line of work . sometimes you 're just not gon na be able to tell me everything that 's going on , you know , to protect me . sonny : hey . i would never want to do something that would hurt you . you get it ? olivia : i know , sonny . sonny : okay . olivia : and i know that you 're carrying around some kind of weight right now , some kind of burden . and as much as i want to help you , sonny , if -- if you 're not ready to tell me what that is , even if you never are , that 's okay . okay ? whatever -- whatever weight ... whatever burden ... you just -- you just keep that as long as you need to , because , you know , it 's not worth losing you . [ scene_break ] kiki : i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to come down on you . i told michael i did n't think you had anything to do with it , but i had to ask . ava : okay . well , if that 's the only reason that you came to visit me , i 'm afraid you wasted your time . kiki : actually , there is another reason . were you , uh ... were you looking for this ? ava : oh ! yes , i 'm -- yeah , i - i - i lost it at the quartermaines ' . kiki : yeah . i found it at the quartermaines ' after aj 's service . ava : it must have fallen off in the house . kiki : it was n't in the house . it was in the crypt . what were you doing in there ? [ scene_break ] julian : you 're ratting out my sister , the great love of your life ? alexis : okay . i 'm gon na go . morgan : no , no , no , no , no . do n't leave on my account , alexis , please . i do n't care if you hear about ava 's lies . i 'm not keeping her secrets anymore . she sure as hell is n't keeping yours . julian : [ sighs ] all right . what do you know ? morgan : ava 's been spoonfeeding my dad info on your organization for months . alexis : morgan , i would think -- morgan : she 's been giving him up - to - dates on your planning , all about your resources , where your hits are . she 's been whispering all this in my dad 's ear . she even downloaded your hard drive and personally went and put it in his hands . julian : and you know this how ? morgan : because i was at his office when she gave him your flash drive . julian : really ? morgan : this was all my idea , okay ? i left you to go work for my dad . i convinced her to do the same so that my dad would let us be together . julian : if she 's doing all this for you , why are you squealing on her ? morgan : why ? i 'll tell you why -- 'cause she cheated on me . [ scene_break ] molly : does shawn really have a right to talk ? tj : [ sighs ] molly : i mean , he works for uncle sonny like my mom does . tj : oh , my god ! and your dad works for the jeromes ? gangster 's in your blood ! molly : wow ! very funny ! besides , my dad told me at dinner that he quit working for julian . he did n't want to risk getting involved in anything illegal . tj : uh ... that 's not very encouraging . molly : well , it 's not gon na happen to your mom . i mean , she 's managing an art gallery -- highly respectable . tj : yeah , you 're right . her job 's totally legit . the whole reason she came to town is 'cause she found out shawn was working for sonny . she was so nuts , she wanted to bring me back to maryland . she 's straight as they come . i mean , there 's no way she 'd be anywhere near the jeromes ' bad business . [ scene_break ] jordan : you want to trash me to thomas ? it is n't enough that his father is dead . now you want to turn him against the only parent that he has left . shawn : i do n't want to shatter tj 's illusion about you , but i do n't know what the hell else to do but separate you from the jeromes . jordan : well , they 're not the ones using strong - arm tactics . i 'll tell you that . you know , you 're threatening to hurt thomas so that you can control me . shawn : no , i 'm not ! it would hurt tj more -- much more -- if you got involved with drugs again ! come on , jordan . he 's getting closer to you . he trusts you ! it would destroy him to find out that you 're dealing right under his nose ! jordan : you are the most stubborn man . i told you i am not involved in that . shawn : i do n't believe you . jordan : if you tell my son the truth about me ... i 'll be forced to tell him the truth about you . shawn : what truth are you gon na tell tj about me ? jordan : the truth about how his father really died . shawn : you mean you -- jordan : you know what i mean . [ chuckles ] friendly fire . there was n't anything friendly about what happened between you and tommy . [ scene_break ] carly : why did ava force carlos to confess to aj 's murder ? it 's not to protect sonny . you know she 's protecting herself . franco : well , ava is never selfless . she 's only ever the opposite . carlos told me ava wanted aj dead . that 's why she sent him to the quartermaine mansion . carly : aj had something on ava , but what ? i ca n't do this . i ca n't . i ca n't sit here and try and figure ava out , you know ? my son just found out that someone confessed to his father 's murder , you know ? it 's got to be breaking his heart . franco : well , why do n't you go talk to him ? and i 'll stay here , 'cause it 's probably better for everybody if i do n't get in michael 's face right now . carly : thank you . franco : you 're welcome . carly : mm .

[ knock on door ] carlos : it was aj . i was shocked . for a minute , i thought he was there for me , but he was drunk and rambling about wanting to work for ava and julian . i had to pretend like i did n't know who he was . aj : where 's ava ? ava ! carlos : hey . aj : ava ! carlos : she 's not here , man . who are you ? aj : where 's -- i want to talk to her ! carlos : calm down , man . who are you ? aj : wait a second . i know you . carlos : i do n't think so . come on . aj : no . it 's you . i know who you are . anna : how could he recognize you , though ? you wore a mask when you broke in to the quartermaines ' . carlos : well , yeah , but ... aj : i recognize your voice . carlos : what ? no , you do n't . aj : yeah . yeah , i do . you broke in to my house . carlos : you do n't know me ! aj : you tried to kill me ! carlos : you do n't know what you 're talking about ! aj : i 'm calling the cops ! carlos : i had to stop him . i knew where julian kept his gun , so i ran and got it . aj : you 're gon na go to prison for a long , long time . carlos : the next thing you know ... i shot him . aj : ohh ! carlos : i thought he was dead . i dropped my gun and got the hell out of there . and that 's what went down . i shot aj quartermaine . and that is the truth .

[ scene_break ] ava : i went to the crypt to pay my respects to aj before i left . kiki : that 's a bit odd . ava : why do you say that ? kiki : because you 've never really cared about aj . you dealt with tracy over the whole elq battle . you 've never been friends with aj . ava : so , does that mean that i should n't care that the man is dead ? do you think that i am a completely unfeeling human being ? kiki : mom , mom , relax . i 'm just saying it 's a little weird that you ended up in the crypt after running out from seeing morgan hugging me . ava : yeah , it was silly . i 'm -- i felt so silly . i just went for a walk to cool down , and i ended up at the crypt , and it was just a reminder of how fragile life can be . kiki : right . there 's nothing going on between me and morgan . he was comforting me because i was going through something . ava : more problems with michael ? kiki : no , it 's not about michael , and i really do n't want to get into it right now . morgan was being a friend . and despite all the doubts that i 've had with your relationship with morgan ... he 's crazy about you , mom . when he saw that you were upset , he went running after you . i guess he just did n't think to look for you in that creepy crypt .

[ scene_break ] molly : i hope shawn gets back soon . i want to be here to see his face when you tell him you got in to pcu . he is gon na freak out . tj : yeah . molly : tj .. are you fighting with shawn ? tj : no , no , no . no , shawn 's perfect . it 's just , uh ... i was just wishing my dad was around . he would have lit up with a huge smile and done this goofy victory - yell thing he used to do . molly : i 'm sorry . of course , you would miss him even more at a time like this . tj : i guess it just was n't meant to be . out of all the crazy chaos in afghanistan , he ended up dead from friendly fire -- friendly in more ways than one . shawn was my dad 's best friend , and he shot my dad by mistake . [ scene_break ] shawn : i ca n't believe you 're saying this . jordan : i do n't want to dredge this up any more than you do . shawn : then do n't . jordan : but you 're not leaving me any choice . you 're threatening to ruin my relationship with my son , so back off , okay ? because you rat me out , i 'm gon na do the same thing to you . but on the other hand , you keep quiet about me ... i 'll keep quiet about you . do we have a deal ? shawn : yeah . we have a deal . jordan : good . i 'm glad you 're being reasonable . shawn : jordan , please . just listen to me , okay ? your deal with the jeromes ca n't end good . look , sonny does n't want drugs in his territory , and he 's not gon na take it lying down , and neither will the cops . if you get arrested , you 're gon na lose tj for good this time -- and you could lose your freedom , too . jordan : shawn , do n't worry about me . shawn : i ca n't help it . i do . just think about it . it 's not too late to get out . [ scene_break ] tj : i was really messed up when i first came to live with shawn . you remember . molly : you were angry , which makes total sense . you 'd just lost your father . tj : but i was all over shawn about that . it 's like i just did n't get the whole thing about friendly fire . all i knew was that shawn killed my dad , who was supposed to be his best friend , and i could n't -- i could n't understand why . it took a while , but i finally figured out that shawn was really torn up about what had happened , and i just made things worse . molly : but you did n't really know shawn back then . tj : but i went after him all the time . it must have been like reopening a wound every day . and i ca n't believe i did that , because bottom line is if shawn loves my dad just as much as i did , my dad would be happy to know that i have shawn in my life . but that does n't stop me from missing him like crazy , especially like tonight . [ scene_break ] carlos : and that 's what went down . i shot aj quartermaine . and that is the truth . [ recorder beeps ] michael : it 's one thing to know he killed aj . it 's another to hear him be so matter - of - fact about it , like he 's just telling a story . anna : oh , i 'm sorry , michael . senseless -- cold and senseless . [ scene_break ] olivia : sonny , are we not okay ? sonny : no . we 're okay , olivia . olivia : but you 're turning me down . sonny : just -- it 's -- i 'm not turning you down . it 's been a long day . that 's all . olivia : yeah , well , you do look like you 've been through it . sonny : i just want to go home . i want to take a shower and go to sleep . then tomorrow is another day . olivia : are you sure ? are you sure that 's all it is , is just you 're tired -- nothing else ? sonny : yeah . sure .

[ scene_break ] julian : who did she cheat on you with ? morgan : why do n't you worry a little less about who 's doing ava and a little more about what ava 's doing to you ? julian : fair enough . i suppose if it 's not our daughter 's boyfriend , i could care less who ava 's sleeping with . i suppose that you want something in exchange for exposing ava ? morgan : i do n't want anything from you . julian : [ sighs ] god , i 'm ... sorry . i have to cut this evening short . alexis : julian ... what are you gon na do ? it 's not like you did n't suspect ava of this before . julian : yeah , well , now that i know it for a fact , i need to take care of it . alexis : i let my guard down , and i let you in . do n't make me sorry . julian : i wo n't . alexis : i really hope you mean that . please ... do n't do anything that we 'll both regret .

[ scene_break ] jordan : i made the pickup at the pier . julian : any problems ? jordan : well , it almost did n't happen , but i took care of it . it 's all there . this should prove that i 'm on your side . [ scene_break ] ava : morgan , we ca n't leave things like this . would you call me back ? or better yet , just come over , okay ? i am so , so sorry . i want to be with you . what happened with your father did n't mean anything -- at all . i love you . [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] ava : what is it , kiki ? what did michael say ? kiki : he said carlos rivera confessed . he killed aj . [ scene_break ] anna : oh , michael . i know carlos ' confession does n't really help with aj 's death , but maybe now you 'll get some closure , start to heal , now you know the truth . [ scene_break ] carly : carlos ' entire confession is a lie . i mean , according to him , ava had nothing to do with any of it -- not the break - in , not the shooting , nothing . so , what are we supposed to do now ? do we still go to anna and tell her everything that ava 's done ? franco : no . no . we let ava think that she 's fooled everybody , including us . and you and me -- we poke around . we dig up dirt . and when we find it , we bury ava jerome . [ scene_break ] ava : carlos killed aj ? why ? ! kiki : michael said that aj came here looking for you , but carlos was here , and aj recognized carlos ' voice from the earlier break - in . before aj could call the police , carlos shot him . ava : wow . kiki : geez . ava : did he implicate anybody else ? kiki : no . no . he acted alone . [ scene_break ] sonny : i do n't have time for this right now . alexis : yeah , well , make time . get over here . get over here . you want to know what morgan told julian about you and ava ? sonny : what ? alexis : if it makes you feel any better , he was n't trying to hurt you . he was trying to hurt ava . sonny : why would you say that ? alexis : morgan told julian that ava cheated on him . no , it was n't with silas clay . he would n't do that to sam . and he did n't name the guy that she slept with . poor morgan is very hurt . he 's very upset , very angry , and he wants to get back at ava , so he told julian that ava 's been funneling information to you about his operation , and julian was not happy . he wants to get at ava , and you , my friend , have lost a valuable source . [ scene_break ] [ cell phone rings ] ava : it 's julian . i do n't need to speak with him now , especially not with you here . kiki : mom , you were friends with carlos . what would make him all of a sudden decide to confess ? ava : does it matter ? the fact is aj 's life is over , and carlos took responsibility . it 's sad . it 's worse . it 's -- it 's a terrible , terrible waste . but it 's finished . and now the rest of us can move on with our lives . [ scene_break ] julian : hey , sis . sorry i missed you . hey , listen , i need to see you . there 's something , um , important i need to speak to you about . get back to me right away .
carly and franco hear anna telling nathan that carlos confessed to murdering aj . carly concludes that ava got to carlos . franco tells carly that carlos was terrified that ava would do something to hurt sabrina and her baby . carly knows ava would n't force carlos to confess to protect sonny , so she must be protecting herself . carlos 's story is that he broke into the quartermaine mansion intending to break into the safe and take some cash but aj was there . he says he went to ava 's apartment and let himself in with his key , and then aj showed up , drunk , rambling about wanting a job with the jeromes . he says aj recognized his voice from the break - in , so he got julian 's gun and shot him . franco tells carly that they ca n't tell anna what they know now that carlos has confessed . he says they should let ava think that no one suspects her while they dig up dirt to bury her . kiki goes to ava 's house to ask her about carlos . ava says she does n't know anything . kiki notices that the match to the earring she found is in ava 's apartment . she wonders what ava was doing in the quartermaine crypt where she found it . michael tells kiki that carlos confessed . kiki relays the information to ava . ava acts surprised .

[ scene_break ] jordan : yeah , i dealt drugs , and i got busted . i lost my son for the longest two years of my life . do you really think that i would make that mistake again ? i 'm finally back in thomas ' life . i would n't risk losing him a second time ! shawn : if you really meant that , you 'd run away from the jeromes ' new business as fast and as far as you could . jordan : managing the art gallery has nothing to do with drugs . and i like the job . i do . i need it so i can stay in town and be near thomas . shawn : how do you think tj 's gon na take it when he finds out the real reason you came to live with me ? you blamed that poor boy . you had him thinking it was his fault you sent him away -- said he was acting out , and you could n't handle it . jordan : that was true . shawn : that 's bull ! you blamed it on tj getting in trouble , but it was you . jordan : are you -- are you threatening me ? is that like an ultimatum -- i quit or you tell thomas about me ? [ scene_break ] julian : look , the gallery 's closed , morgan , so get the hell out of here . morgan : no ! you want to hear this . julian : why would i listen to you , huh ? you 're a callow brat who turned on me and ran back to his father , screaming like a little girl . you 've been working with him ever since to take me down . morgan : you 're wrong , okay ? i 'm not the one that 's been working to take you down . ava is . [ scene_break ] ava : why would i know anything about carlos ' problems with aj ? kiki : because you work with carlos . you 've been friends with carlos . well , actually , you 've been friends with carlos for a very long time , but i did n't even know he existed , which was one of your many kept secrets from me . ava : oh , kiki , please . kiki : no . my last thing is that carlos must have been mad at aj -- mad enough to shoot him , right ? and since you and carlos are close , i figured he might have told you why . ava : where is this coming from , hmm ? kiki : to tell you the truth , i 'm trying to help michael . he 's desperate for answers about his father , and as far as he was concerned , carlos and aj did n't even know each other . i was hoping that you could help me shed some light on their relationship . so , please , tell me anything that you know . ava : i do n't know anything . i was n't involved in any of it . i 've just been trying to get my gallery off the ground . i - i have n't even seen carlos in months . kiki : what are n't you telling me ? carlos : you told me ... if i told anyone you sent me to kill aj quartermaine before he realized you killed connie falconeri , sabrina would pay the price . ava : whatever carlos tells the police , i can assure you it will have nothing to do with me . [ scene_break ] anna : hey . you 're not going into the interrogation room . you honestly think your presence in there is gon na help me get the truth out of mr. rivera ? michael : he 's my father . i have a right to know why he was killed . anna : well , yeah , and you will , but not while i 'm taking his confession . come on , michael . just wait here . carlos : well ? i told you i 'm not saying another word until i know how sabrina is . anna : yeah . carlos : how badly was she injured in that car wreck ? anna : i spoke to the hospital . sabrina 's in stable condition . carlos : the baby ? anna : well , the baby 's 15 weeks premature . he 's fighting for his life . carlos : [ crying ] anna : are you okay ? carlos : [ sniffles ] yeah . yeah . let 's do this .

[ scene_break ] franco : michael will get answers . they just wo n't be the right ones . carly : we know for a fact carlos did n't shoot aj . why the hell is he confessing ? franco : ava must be forcing him . i 'm telling you , when we were in those cells , carlos was terrified that ava was gon na hurt sabrina and the baby . carly : so terrified that he 's willing to go to prison for the rest of his life ? franco : yeah , but to protect the woman that he loves ? come on . i totally get that . [ scene_break ] anna : how is aj 's death about sabrina ? carlos : when sabrina got pregnant , i did n't trust dr. drake to step up and do the right thing . i wanted to make sure that her and her baby were taken care of . working for the jeromes , i barely make enough to live off of . instead of crawling to them and begging for a raise , i decided to make a little money on the side . obviously , i 'm not gon na tell either one of my bosses that . they would n't like that too much . anna : i see . go on . carlos : everybody knows that the quartermaines are the richest family in town , so i decided to do a quick little b & e -- bust in , bust open the safe , grab some cash , whatever else is worth anything , get the hell out of there . i thought the place was empty , but it was n't . aj was there . i could n't get out of there without him seeing my face . i could n't get caught . if i go to jail , how 's that gon na help sabrina ? so i knew i had to shoot him . but i was n't quick enough . tracy quartermaine smashed me on the back of the head . i dropped my gun , and it forced me to run . anna : leaving your gun and aj very much alive . carlos : not for long . anna : you say you killed aj , yet he was shot with julian 's gun in ava 's penthouse . how do you explain that ? [ scene_break ] olivia : duke was here earlier , and we had a talk , and -- and he really helped me work through some things , you know , in my -- in my head and in my heart . sonny : how ? olivia : he explained to me how -- how sometimes he has to hide some things from anna , you know , in their conflicting line of work . sometimes you 're just not gon na be able to tell me everything that 's going on , you know , to protect me . sonny : hey . i would never want to do something that would hurt you . you get it ? olivia : i know , sonny . sonny : okay . olivia : and i know that you 're carrying around some kind of weight right now , some kind of burden . and as much as i want to help you , sonny , if -- if you 're not ready to tell me what that is , even if you never are , that 's okay . okay ? whatever -- whatever weight ... whatever burden ... you just -- you just keep that as long as you need to , because , you know , it 's not worth losing you . [ scene_break ] kiki : i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to come down on you . i told michael i did n't think you had anything to do with it , but i had to ask . ava : okay . well , if that 's the only reason that you came to visit me , i 'm afraid you wasted your time . kiki : actually , there is another reason . were you , uh ... were you looking for this ? ava : oh ! yes , i 'm -- yeah , i - i - i lost it at the quartermaines ' . kiki : yeah . i found it at the quartermaines ' after aj 's service . ava : it must have fallen off in the house . kiki : it was n't in the house . it was in the crypt . what were you doing in there ?

[ scene_break ] jordan : you want to trash me to thomas ? it is n't enough that his father is dead . now you want to turn him against the only parent that he has left . shawn : i do n't want to shatter tj 's illusion about you , but i do n't know what the hell else to do but separate you from the jeromes . jordan : well , they 're not the ones using strong - arm tactics . i 'll tell you that . you know , you 're threatening to hurt thomas so that you can control me . shawn : no , i 'm not ! it would hurt tj more -- much more -- if you got involved with drugs again ! come on , jordan . he 's getting closer to you . he trusts you ! it would destroy him to find out that you 're dealing right under his nose ! jordan : you are the most stubborn man . i told you i am not involved in that . shawn : i do n't believe you . jordan : if you tell my son the truth about me ... i 'll be forced to tell him the truth about you . shawn : what truth are you gon na tell tj about me ? jordan : the truth about how his father really died . shawn : you mean you -- jordan : you know what i mean .

[ knock on door ] carlos : it was aj . i was shocked . for a minute , i thought he was there for me , but he was drunk and rambling about wanting to work for ava and julian . i had to pretend like i did n't know who he was . aj : where 's ava ? ava ! carlos : hey . aj : ava ! carlos : she 's not here , man . who are you ? aj : where 's -- i want to talk to her ! carlos : calm down , man . who are you ? aj : wait a second . i know you . carlos : i do n't think so . come on . aj : no . it 's you . i know who you are . anna : how could he recognize you , though ? you wore a mask when you broke in to the quartermaines ' . carlos : well , yeah , but ... aj : i recognize your voice . carlos : what ? no , you do n't . aj : yeah . yeah , i do . you broke in to my house . carlos : you do n't know me ! aj : you tried to kill me ! carlos : you do n't know what you 're talking about ! aj : i 'm calling the cops ! carlos : i had to stop him . i knew where julian kept his gun , so i ran and got it . aj : you 're gon na go to prison for a long , long time . carlos : the next thing you know ... i shot him . aj : ohh ! carlos : i thought he was dead . i dropped my gun and got the hell out of there . and that 's what went down . i shot aj quartermaine . and that is the truth .

[ scene_break ] ava : i went to the crypt to pay my respects to aj before i left . kiki : that 's a bit odd . ava : why do you say that ? kiki : because you 've never really cared about aj . you dealt with tracy over the whole elq battle . you 've never been friends with aj . ava : so , does that mean that i should n't care that the man is dead ? do you think that i am a completely unfeeling human being ? kiki : mom , mom , relax . i 'm just saying it 's a little weird that you ended up in the crypt after running out from seeing morgan hugging me . ava : yeah , it was silly . i 'm -- i felt so silly . i just went for a walk to cool down , and i ended up at the crypt , and it was just a reminder of how fragile life can be . kiki : right . there 's nothing going on between me and morgan . he was comforting me because i was going through something . ava : more problems with michael ? kiki : no , it 's not about michael , and i really do n't want to get into it right now . morgan was being a friend . and despite all the doubts that i 've had with your relationship with morgan ... he 's crazy about you , mom . when he saw that you were upset , he went running after you . i guess he just did n't think to look for you in that creepy crypt . [ scene_break ] julian : well , i am sorry about that , kid , although i ca n't really say that i 'm surprised . i did warn you that you were nothing more than a boy toy to her . alexis : julian , please . julian : what ? the kid obviously knows the truth now , does n't he ? morgan : well , you 're right . i fell for her act . i thought she loved me , and i probably should have known better . ava 's , uh ... said now for months that she 's still in love with silas clay . alexis : wait a minute ! ava cheated with silas ? morgan : no , she did not . it was n't with silas . julian : are you sure it was n't silas ? because he 's going out with our daughter , and if he 's running around -- morgan : it was n't silas , all right ? ! julian : all right . so , then , who was it ? [ scene_break ] olivia : oh , it feels so good to be close to you . the last few days have been hell . sonny , i missed this . sonny : yeah . i missed you , too . olivia : well , you know , my night manager 's gon na be here in a couple minutes . we could just go home . or maybe we could get a room . sonny : [ sighs ] no , i ca n't . [ scene_break ] molly : i hope shawn gets back soon . i want to be here to see his face when you tell him you got in to pcu . he is gon na freak out . tj : yeah . molly : tj .. are you fighting with shawn ? tj : no , no , no . no , shawn 's perfect . it 's just , uh ... i was just wishing my dad was around . he would have lit up with a huge smile and done this goofy victory - yell thing he used to do . molly : i 'm sorry . of course , you would miss him even more at a time like this . tj : i guess it just was n't meant to be . out of all the crazy chaos in afghanistan , he ended up dead from friendly fire -- friendly in more ways than one . shawn was my dad 's best friend , and he shot my dad by mistake . [ scene_break ] shawn : i ca n't believe you 're saying this . jordan : i do n't want to dredge this up any more than you do . shawn : then do n't . jordan : but you 're not leaving me any choice . you 're threatening to ruin my relationship with my son , so back off , okay ? because you rat me out , i 'm gon na do the same thing to you . but on the other hand , you keep quiet about me ... i 'll keep quiet about you . do we have a deal ? shawn : yeah . we have a deal . jordan : good . i 'm glad you 're being reasonable . shawn : jordan , please . just listen to me , okay ? your deal with the jeromes ca n't end good . look , sonny does n't want drugs in his territory , and he 's not gon na take it lying down , and neither will the cops . if you get arrested , you 're gon na lose tj for good this time -- and you could lose your freedom , too . jordan : shawn , do n't worry about me . shawn : i ca n't help it . i do . just think about it . it 's not too late to get out . [ scene_break ] tj : i was really messed up when i first came to live with shawn . you remember . molly : you were angry , which makes total sense . you 'd just lost your father . tj : but i was all over shawn about that . it 's like i just did n't get the whole thing about friendly fire . all i knew was that shawn killed my dad , who was supposed to be his best friend , and i could n't -- i could n't understand why . it took a while , but i finally figured out that shawn was really torn up about what had happened , and i just made things worse . molly : but you did n't really know shawn back then . tj : but i went after him all the time . it must have been like reopening a wound every day . and i ca n't believe i did that , because bottom line is if shawn loves my dad just as much as i did , my dad would be happy to know that i have shawn in my life . but that does n't stop me from missing him like crazy , especially like tonight . [ scene_break ] carlos : and that 's what went down . i shot aj quartermaine . and that is the truth . [ recorder beeps ] michael : it 's one thing to know he killed aj . it 's another to hear him be so matter - of - fact about it , like he 's just telling a story . anna : oh , i 'm sorry , michael . senseless -- cold and senseless . [ scene_break ] olivia : sonny , are we not okay ? sonny : no . we 're okay , olivia . olivia : but you 're turning me down . sonny : just -- it 's -- i 'm not turning you down . it 's been a long day . that 's all . olivia : yeah , well , you do look like you 've been through it . sonny : i just want to go home . i want to take a shower and go to sleep . then tomorrow is another day . olivia : are you sure ? are you sure that 's all it is , is just you 're tired -- nothing else ? sonny : yeah . sure .

[ scene_break ] carly : carlos ' entire confession is a lie . i mean , according to him , ava had nothing to do with any of it -- not the break - in , not the shooting , nothing . so , what are we supposed to do now ? do we still go to anna and tell her everything that ava 's done ? franco : no . no . we let ava think that she 's fooled everybody , including us . and you and me -- we poke around . we dig up dirt . and when we find it , we bury ava jerome .

[ lightly edgy music ] what ? chloe . chloe : well , uh ... he ... he told eric to fire you . nicole : what ? but he did n't fire me . chloe : yeah . because eric could n't bear the idea of making you leave a job that you love . nicole : so he left a job he loved instead . chloe : yeah , i mean , the thing is , eric cares about you and brady . i mean , he just -- he did n't want to interfere with your happiness . nicole : that 's what brady said at the wedding in front of all those people -- you have to do ... everything you can , no matter what or who gets in your way , to be with the person you love . i guess this is ... what he was talking about . chloe : i hope that you do n't hate me for telling you this . nicole : no , i ... i don't . i ... i 'm glad you did . chloe : so ... what are you gon na do now ?

[ soft music ] victor : that bad , huh ? brady : i did n't see you when i came in . victor : obviously not . listen , brady , i know that weddings can bring out all kinds of complicated feelings in people ... especially when they 're interrupted by ... a homicidal maniac . i do n't want to see you lose your hard - won sobriety . especially not over the likes of nicole walker . [ somber music ] chloe : look , the real reason eric left salem is you . he left because of you . nicole : chloe , i do n't know what you 're implying . chloe : i am not implying anything -- i 'm just saying it outright . which ... is hard for me because ... i care about both eric and brady . nicole : brady ? chloe : look , they both confided things in me , things that they were trusting me with not to tell anyone , but i ca n't sit silently by while you 're in the dark about this . and i just do n't wan na keep secrets from you anymore -- not after everything that i put you through . so i feel like i should just tell you the truth . eli : [ laughs ] jeez ! gabi : i 'm so sorry . eli : you 're a lot stronger than you look . gabi : well , you know , maybe i should give my teacher some credit , you know ? [ both chuckling ] [ soft music ] man : [ loudly ] ah - hem !

[ stammers ] i 'm will 's grandmother , but i ... i doubt that i could authorize an exhumation . paul : actually , we were hoping for something else . marlena : oh ? what ? paul : marlena , if you could talk to ben ... you 're the only person with the skills to be able to get through to him . sonny : just get him to explain why he 's saying will 's alive . [ somber music ] male announcer : like sands through the hourglass , so are the `` days of our lives . `` [ soft orchestration ] sonny : marlena , we can only imagine how painful this has been for you , having ben show up like that and crash the wedding and saying that will 's alive . marlena : that was painful . painful for you as well . but i do want to know why ben said what he did about will . paul : well , he said it because he 's insane ... because he 's trying to hurt us . look , will is dead , and he is not coming back . i 'm sorry ... but it 's true . i mean , ben weston is a liar . and he 's only trying to destroy what we have together . sonny : maybe he is ... but if there 's the slightest chance that will 's alive ... paul : then you have to know .

[ pensive music ] chloe : nicole , you are my best friend and we almost lost each other once . and i do n't wan na ruin our friendship by keeping something this ... big from you . nicole : i appreciate that , i do , but i - i already knew that eric left town because of me . he told me . well , he wrote me in a -- in a letter he left . chloe : what exactly did he say ? nicole : well , that things shifted after i forgave him for what happened with daniel . chloe : okay , that much is true . nicole : of course , i thought working together would be a lot easier , but he felt that since we finally put the past in the past ... [ chuckles ] that it was the perfect time for him to leave salem . chloe : oh ... [ sighs ] . wow . okay , we , llthat guy seems to be one of the most unselfish people i 've ever met . when i think about everything that he 's given up -- he gave up his job , his friends , his family -- but most importantly , he gave up you . nicole : what are you talking about ? chloe : oh , my god , you still do n't get it , do you ? nicole : get what ? chloe : eric did n't leave salem because you forgave him . he left because he 's still in love with you . [ soft dramatic music ] nicole : [ sighs ] this is insane . it ca n't be true ! chloe : it is true . eric told me himself . nicole : what ? how did that even come up ? chloe : well , honestly , i kinda sensed something , and so i called him out on it , and he said yeah , he 'd been trying to deny it , but it was no use . nicole : well , i - i - i just do n't believe it . chloe : well , believe it . it was tearing the guy up inside . i told him he 'd have to deal with his feelings eventually . nicole : and this is how he deals with it -- by quitting a job that he loves and leaving a town full of people that love him . it does n't make any sense . chloe : well , it was a little more complicated than that , especially after brady found out . nicole : brady knows eric has feelings for me ? chloe : yeah . nicole : okay , now i definitely do n't believe it . because if brady knew , he would have said something to me . chloe : [ sighs ] well , i 'm sorry , nicole , but it 's true . brady knows everything . gabi : rafe , stop . rafe : no . it 's bad enough you took a shot at raines that coulda killed her . gabi : you know , eli is a trained marksman -- he knew what he was doing . rafe : even marksmen miss . gabi : he saved my life . i have told you over and over that what you need to be doing is thanking him ! rafe : no , i 'm not gon na thank him for taking advantage of you at a time like this . gabi : what are you talking about ? rafe : what -- you 're gon na act like tonight was n't rough on you ? that psychopath coming back into town , crashing the wedding , acting like will 's still alive ? gabi : ben is not gon na get -- rafe : and you had to see chad get married . gabi : they 're not even married yet , rafe ! please ! what ? rafe : they got married like an hour ago . chad : so i need to , uh , talk to you . abigail : okay . chad : it 's kinda serious . abigail : what 's wrong ? chad : um ... well , as happy as i am that , you know , we were able to , uh ... do our vows , um , would you be upset if we cancelled our honeymoon ? abigail : i totally forgot about a honeymoon . chad : well , i didn't . i had this ... amazing trip to australia planned with quite the itinerary , i must say . abigail : mmm . i always wanted to go there . chad : we will . just , uh , just kinda does n't seem right with everything going on right now . abigail : well , as much as i would love being whisked away by you ... i agree . i do n't think we should go . chad : thanks for understanding . abigail : mm - hmm . well , thanks for being the kinda guy who does n't cut out on his friends . i love you for that . [ sighs ] i just feel bad for sonny . you know , i know that we all know that ben 's claims are pretty outrageous , but i just think even mentioning that will is alive is ... chad : yeah . it just does n't seem fair . it 's like their lives are just in limbo now -- sonny , paul , will 's family . abigail : it 's not fair . it 's torture . john : hey . marlena : oh , hey , honey . john : how you two holdin ' up ? sonny : we 're better now ... that marlena agreed to help us out . john : okay . okay , well , fill me in on the latest . paul : sure . do you mind ? marlena : i 'm so sorry you have to go through this . sonny : i feel the same way for you , marlena . marlena : [ softly ] yeah . thanks . you know , you 're right , it is just still so painful ... to think about the way that will died . just ... terrifying and ... so young , so young , his whole life ahead of him . and now you ... [ soft laugh ] you 're getting married . your whole life ahead of you . i ... i should tell you how happy i was when i heard the news that you and paul wanted to share your lives together . sonny : yeah . it 's just that i feel horrible -- i feel so guilty . marlena : guilty ? why ? sonny : 'cause here i am , i -- i 'm in love again . i 'm getting married again . and what 's will up to ? will 's gone . marlena : oh , sonny , please , no , do n't -- sonny : i ca n't help but think about the way i treated him . i was so unfair . i judged him for one mistake ? and i did n't even -- i did n't just judge him , marlena . i abandoned him . he died thinking i was done with him , that i had fall out of love . marlena : no . no , darling , he always knew that you loved him . sonny : i know you 're just saying that to make me feel better . we have no idea what will felt when he died . marlena : i knew my grandson . i understood -- i felt that bond you two shared . so i know that ... will thought ... you would get past it ... that you would end up together . sonny : i would give anything to tell him that i still love him . even though i was upset and hurt when we separated ... will was the love of my life . i need to tell him that , marlena . and i 'm hoping that i get that chance . [ edgy music ] ben : oh , look . the gang 's all here . ben : i 'm sorry ... for bustin ' up your big day , boys . but maybe next time will can crash it . john : no , no , no -- marlena : do n't let him get to you -- that 's what he wants . do n't let him do it . john : hey , hey , hey , hey . doc , you sure you 're up for this ? marlena : [ quietly ] i am up for this . john : all right . i 'll be right outside here . marlena : okay .

[ tense music ] john : hey , hey , hey . all right , all right , just cool down . hope : it 's up to marlena now . [ intense musical sting ] ben : what are you doin ' here ? what ? you wan na scream at me for saying your grandson 's alive ? go ahead . knock yourself out . marlena : i do n't wan na scream at you . [ soft music ] i wan na know why you said what you did about will . ben : i thought i made myself pretty clear about that . marlena : i 'd like to hear it from you , ben . ben : [ sighs ] i came back to tell sonny the good news ... that the real love of his life is alive . marlena : not to break up the wedding ? ben : yeah . i escaped the fricking nuthouse and risked getting caught for that . marlena : well , you got ta admit that your timing makes it look that way , do n't you think ? ben : read into it however you want . marlena : well , you showed up . it was conspicuous timing . the wedding was about to go on . ben : you people act like i 'm a monster ! [ soft , dramatic music ] maybe because of what i did , i am . but when i escaped bayview ... i could have just disappeared . and i didn't . i didn't . instead , i risked everything so people like sonny and you and everyone else that cared about will would know the truth . what do i get for my efforts ? disrespect ? worse than that , i get treated like dirt -- i get attacked , i get shunned and scorned like i rained on your damn parade ! screw that . [ whispers ] screw that . i 'm done ... wasting my energy ... on a bunch ... of ingrates . so i say ... [ screaming ] to hell with all of you ! marlena : uh -- [ dramatic music continues ] chad : we 've been through a lot ... came out the other side . abigail : mm - hmm . stronger than ever . chad : love you so much . more than words ... could ever express . abigail : well , then how 'bout you find another way ? chad : oh ... okay . abigail : uh - huh , uh - huh ... [ poignant music ] victor : i realize you needed a little push to take control of the situation . brady : i should have thought it out more thoroughly . victor : would you rather eric was still here ? working side - by - side with nicole every day , day after day ? maybe even sleeping together -- brady : stop -- don't . don't . do n't do that . victor : no ? which would be worse ... the guilt of his leaving or ... the constant worry that the two of them make a fool of you ? you 'd be made into a cuckold . brady : [ scoffs ] cuckold . what is -- what is with that word ? victor : do n't know what it means , look it up . brady : i know what it means . victor : then get on with it . you made the right choice . live with it -- stop kicking yourself . you won . brady : i 'm glad i won . just wish i was happier about the way i did it . nicole : i can't ... believe that brady knew how eric felt about me . did eric tell him too ? chloe : no . i did that ... accidentally . brady acted like he already knew , but i had my doubts . but then when i said it , the look on his face -- i could tell that he did n't actually know a thing . nicole : it 's hard to believe that ... brady 's known this whole time and did n't do anything . [ lightly edgy music ] what ? chloe . chloe : well , uh ... he ... he told eric to fire you . nicole : what ? but he did n't fire me . chloe : yeah . because eric could n't bear the idea of making you leave a job that you love . nicole : so he left a job he loved instead . chloe : yeah , i mean , the thing is , eric cares about you and brady . i mean , he just -- he did n't want to interfere with your happiness . nicole : that 's what brady said at the wedding in front of all those people -- you have to do ... everything you can , no matter what or who gets in your way , to be with the person you love . i guess this is ... what he was talking about . chloe : i hope that you do n't hate me for telling you this . nicole : no , i ... i don't . i ... i 'm glad you did . chloe : so ... what are you gon na do now ?

[ scene_break ] jesse : why do n't you let me help you with that ? angie : oh , no , it 's fine . i woke hoping the morning sun would be shining in my eyes , and i could see lucy 's face just once before maya takes her . jesse : hey , listen . maybe maya will have a change of heart . she knows she can stay here , make this her home . we can help her . angie : it is n't going to happen , jesse . lucy 's hers , and she needs to be with her mother . we just have to accept that . jesse : whatever happens , you will see lucy one day . angie : you 've been the doubter through all of this . what 's changed ? jesse : watching you , seeing your strength , your dignity . and no matter what happens next , angela , even if you ca n't forgive me for what i 've done , i will always believe in you . always . angie : thanks for having such faith in me . jesse : always . i just wish that there was something i could do to make -- angie : i guess that also means that you have faith in david , too . jesse : just because he can work miracles does n't excuse him for what he does to people in order to make those miracles work . angie : jesse , do n't let them take him away . i mean , i 'm not asking you to forgive his crimes . just let him stay here a little while longer . jesse : you afraid you might need more treatment , and he 's the only one that can give it to you , right ? angie : yes , that 's part of it . jesse : the other part ? angie : there are two more patients he has somewhere . jesse : he 's not gon na give them up , angela . angie : how do you know ? jesse : he does n't have to . angie : i 'd like to talk to him . jesse : see if you can appeal to his good side ? he does n't have one of those . angie : i believe that you 're wrong about that . one of those patients could be his daughter babe , and i would never forgive myself if i did n't at least try to bring her back to her mother . [ scene_break ] maya : how am i gon na do this ? i do n't have a job . i do n't even have a place to go with the baby . colby : my mom actually adopted a baby boy . his name was stuart , after my uncle stuart . he was so cute . we were madly , madly in love with him . maya : so what happened ? colby : we had to give him back . his birth mother wanted him back . it was absolutely miserable . my mother -- i had never seen her that unhappy in my entire life . so if you want to do angie and jesse a favor and you want to leave , do it quickly .

[ scene_break ] liza : so maya wants to keep the baby , but she does n't have a place to stay ? colby : yeah , that 's right . liza : why does n't she just stay with angie and jesse ? colby : the longer she 's around there , the harder it 's gon na get for them . and maya -- she wants to go to school and she wants to get a job . i know that you do n't want to hear this right now , and i totally know you do n't want to deal with it , so -- liza : no , actually , i would . having a baby around the house ? i do n't know about that . colby : what ? so i can tell maya it 's ok ? liza : tell her that it 's ok . i think this 'll be an adventure , huh ? colby : yeah . liza : yeah . colby : we can do baby things . we can go to the park . it will be like a lot -- what 's wrong ? liza : oh , yeah . i was just thinking about angie and jesse . i know how hard it 's gon na be for them .

[ scene_break ] tad : just tell us whether or not babe is alive . david : and why should i do that , tad ? because we 're such good friends ? tad : no . because krystal 's a good woman , and she deserves to know whether or not she 's ever gon na get a chance to see her daughter again , you arrogant son of a bitch . who do you think you are to torture a person like that with false hope ? david : i do n't owe you or anyone else any answers here . tad : maybe not , but what do say i send you back to your cell with a makeover ? answer the question -- david : guard ! brot : what the hell is going on in here ? david : this lovely conversation is over . brot : i think it 's best if the two of you leave . tad : you only got one shot , one last chance to do something righteous in your life . david : why could n't you just be grateful ? if you really cared about the people i 've helped , why could n't you just support me ? why could n't you defend me against ryan and zach when they set me up ? dixie : nobody did this to you . this is your fault . you are responsible for everything that 's happening right now in your life -- just like always .

[ traci sighs ] i keep going back to my last conversation with victor . we were at society having a drink , talking about our lives . all very civilized . and given the fact that we spent most of our lives trying to destroy each other , that was momentous . traci : [ chuckles ] i remember you talking about it . jack : he 'd stepped back from newman because of his illness . a company he had created , spent his whole life building . a company that formed who he was . and he seemed at peace with that decision . traci : i wonder if -- if he did n't help inspire this new attitude you have about jabot . jack : i do n't know . maybe . his ego certainly would n't have allowed him to admit if he was n't up to the task . in his mind , he was j -- he was humoring nikki , giving his full attention to his recovery . but i saw the effect this illness had on him -- lack of concentration . that sharp mind was not that sharp . and i ca n't help but wonder if it was a whole lot worse for victor than he ever let on . when we found out he passed , you know , the suddenness of it all , it -- it made me think -- traci : jack , what ? jack : he was always in such control of his life . what if he decided he did n't want to live a life without that control ? and it made me think of dina . and all she 's going through . and ... how every moment is so precious . nikki : look , we are all on the same page where adam is concerned . but we need to work together to protect victoria , not worry about who is to blame . now , victor is feeling better now that he 's back on the correct dose of medication , but he 's not 100 % yet . i would imagine that we 're all feeling a little fragile after everything that has happened , so let 's at least agree to be kind to one another . billy : look , i 'm sorry i went off on you . i know that adam is your son , and this has been a blow to you . victor : you ca n't begin to imagine . nikki : victor and i know it has n't been easy for you , dealing with adam 's resurrection . victor : even i can see that you have been going through hell lately , billy . [ cellphone rings ] billy : it 's victoria . nikki : [ gasps ] oh ! billy : hey . how are you ? what 's going on ? victoria : i 'm fine . i 'm just still waiting to be arraigned . billy : why ? why is it taking so long ? victoria : i 'm not sure . but my attorney 's all over it . billy : i 'm here with your mom and dad . we 're talking strategy . i 'm gon na come down there and -- victoria : put me on speaker . billy : okay . victoria : mom ? dad ? nikki : yes , we 're here , darling . victoria : hello , sweetheart . i 'm so happy to hear your voice . nikki : we 're just sick about what you 're going through . billy : i 'm trying to convince them to abandon the plan , vick . victoria : i want you to listen , all of you -- i should be out soon . until then , please do n't do anything . billy : i need to find out what 's going on with vick . victor : hold your horses , all right ? she was very explicit about us not doing anything . billy : yeah , i know . but i 'm not just gon na stand here and wait for more information . i mean , why the delayed arraignment ? why has n't she been charged yet ? is she gon na get bail ? victor : we 'll find out soon enough . billy : has it not occurred to you that adam could be behind the scenes making this all more difficult ? i mean , he got michael installed as the new d.a . , which means he 's got leverage over him , right ? nikki : billy . billy , please try to relax . trust that victoria can handle herself . billy : no , it 's adam that i do n't trust . adam : whoever wrote this does not know the meaning of the word `` research . `` just cobble together a bunch of puff pieces from the business rags . `` driven . `` `` admired . `` what -- sounds like a car , not a person . people reading this want to know , who was the real victor newman ? and this is what you tell them . `` competitive . `` wow ! wow . that is so generic . `` legend . `` yeah . yeah , in your own mind . `` ruthless . `` now , that -- that is half true . i mean , that 's what you wanted everybody to think , right , dad ? all the sheeple who supposedly looked up to you ? i mean , fear is the great motivator , after all . but still , you could be ruthless sometimes . but that is n't the whole story . it 's not even close . not even close . young adam : happy birthday , mr . newman . how old are you ? young victor : ohh , how old am i ? [ laughs ] young adam : is it time for cake ? young victor : let me explain that to you after you open this . young adam : what is it ? young victor : well , there 's only one way to find out -- you open it . oh , yeah . now , you do n't want someone to hit you , do you ? right . so , the first thing you learn is to defend yourself , okay ? so whenever someone throws a punch at your face , you go like this -- bah ! do you understand ? so , you throw a punch right now , right here , at my face . do it . do it . bah ! do it again . bah ! young victor : your mom tells me you know a lot about airplanes . what do you know about this one ? young adam : i know what kind of engines it has . young victor : oh , you do ? young adam : br710 , with 14,000 pounds of thrust . young victor : how do you know that ? that 's impressive . what else do you want to know ? young adam : i think i remember meeting you . young victor : yeah , a long time ago . young adam : you gave me boxing gloves . young victor : you remember that ? young adam : and your name . it 's victor . just like mine . young victor : yeah , just like yours . adam : god , how did it go so wrong ? rey : yeah , paul also wondered if i could be objective where adam 's concerned . sharon : can you ? rey : i 'm not gon na rehash what happened between you and me , and why . i 've accepted it . whatever feelings i may have ... part of being a cop is separating your personal life from the job . sharon : in social work , also . although i understand how difficult that can be . but i know how much integrity you have , rey . it 's one of the things i 've always liked about you . listen , victor and adam have always had a complicated relationship . it 's love and resentment and rage all tangled up into one . rey : well , that sounds pretty volatile . sharon : well , it has been , at times . but when i looked into adam 's eyes and i asked him about victor , he swore to me that this is not what he wanted . and i know him , rey . rey : y - you want to believe that you can see into his heart . adam 's just a guy with a -- with a conscience and a soul who 's just been misunderstood . but adam declared war on the entire newman family , and he 's made it very clear that he meant it . the way he went after nick 's son put them both through hell . he turns on the people he loves if they do n't do his bidding , sharon . he tried to implicate chelsea into calvin 's death because she did n't jump at the chance to get back together with him . sharon : okay , and then he chose to drop that custody case . and now he and chelsea are getting along just fine . look , i know that adam can sometimes be very emotional or impulsive , but he reigns himself back in when he realizes he 's gone too far . rey : the facts still paint a very dark picture of the guy . it 's the reason i was worried about you being drawn into adam 's orbit again . i did n't want you to end up like victoria . as collateral damage . it 's what i 've been trying to protect you from all along . i did n't want you to get hurt . i still don't. `` the young and the restless `` will continue . jack : there you go . dina : hmm . jack : you a little cold ? i have just the thing . there we go . if you like , we can stop at that little pie shop further down , pick up some cider and spice cookies . we can take them back to your room . if you want . traci and i were talking earlier about victor . victor newman ? i always thought you and he had a lot in common . both smart , tough , successful in business . difficult relationship with your families . there was a time i thought i could never forgive what victor had done to me , and to our family . one day i realized , i was nurturing all that anger . living on it . feeding from it . letting it become a part of who i was . i 'm telling you , mother , i never felt more liberated than the day i let all that go . you want to go get some cookies ? here . come with me . come on . okay ? young adam : i bet you ca n't read as good as my daddy . young victor : oh , yeah ? you want to bet ? i 'll try . but you know something ? i 'm gon na have to put on my glasses . now , let 's see , here . young victor : now , you stand over there . right there . this is a soccer ball , right ? young adam : yeah . young victor : so when i roll it to you , you kick it back to me . young adam : okay . young victor : okay ? young adam : okay . young victor : okay . good . and again . good . and again . yeah ! young adam : mr. newman , your name is the same as mine . young victor : that 's right . it is . young adam : i never knew anyone else with my name . hope : and you know what , honey ? it 's a wonderful name . a wonderful , strong name , just like the kind of man you 're gon na grow up to be someday . young adam : like daddy ? hope : oh ! yes , darling . just like daddy . adam : ugh . what if -- what if my mom never made you swear to keep it a secret from me ? i mean , what if i knew that you were my dad the whole time growing up ?

[ sighs ] sharon : a part of me knows that you could be right . adam could have felt provoked enough to do something terrible to victor . rey : adam 's made no secret about his intentions to take down every newman in his path . what more proof do you need ? you still think you can change him . you can't . nikki : oh , darling ! victoria : hi , mom . nikki : i 'm so happy to see you . we 've been so worried . victoria : oh ! victor : my sweetheart . oh , my baby . victoria : dad . victor : did they treat you all right , huh ? victoria : like any other guest of the city . billy : i told victoria we have a lot to discuss , like the delayed arraignment . lawyer said she did n't know why . if she did , she was n't telling me . victoria : i think she was just being paranoid . she did n't want to answer any questions in the courtroom in case someone overheard us . billy : vick , it 's not paranoia when somebody 's trying to pin murder on you . victor : billy thinks that adam may have manipulated your case . victoria : for what purpose ? billy : to shake you up . to show how powerful he thinks he is . victoria : well , given that dad is alive , i - i am not in any legal jeopardy . billy : but adam does n't know that . victoria : [ sighs ] that 's true . victor : sweetheart , you may still be in jeopardy . nikki : adam has crossed the line with both you and your father . to a point that i thought would have been unthinkable . he is much more treacherous than we realized . victor : and , billy , you have been lobbying all morning to end this . billy : it gets victoria off the hook . but it does not mean that adam is gon na stop trying to decimate this family . victoria : no , we 're gon na stick to the original plan , and we 're gon na see this through . we have too much at stake to pull the plug before we have adam where we want him . jack : we 've done a lot of walking today . let 's sit right here , okay ? here . it 's okay . there you go . you seem a little warm . i 'm gon na take this off , okay ? you all right ? hey , you know , i have n't told you about my trip to sedona . i was feeling , i do n't know , a little at loose ends , and so i decided to give myself a holiday . take a little time to reflect . what is it they say ? an unexamined life is no life at all . i guess you could say i was , i do n't know , searching for myself . and in the process , i learned something important . about you . for a long time , i -- i think i looked at your life in the lens of a ... [ sighs ] i do n't know . a broken kid . all i could think of was how your actions affected me and the girls and dad . well , while i was away , i started looking at things in a very different way . i tried to -- tried to get a bigger picture of you . who you were . in the context of , you know , the time we lived in . what was expected of you , how few opportunities there were , and ... how at odds all that seemed with who you were , what you wanted to be . here was this young woman with a bright mind who needed more challenges , more responsibilities , and ... i do n't know . i -- i think you were after things women were n't supposed to go after . women were told they could n't go after . but you did . you wanted more . you wanted a bigger , fuller life , and that 's what you went after . for a very long time , i looked at that as a flaw instead of what it is . it was an act of true bravery . i know i judged you . i know i told you more than once that i could never forgive what you did . i do n't know if you can hear me . i do n't know if you even recognize who i am . but i am the one doing the apologizing now . [ sighs ] i never gave you the credit you deserved for the amazing life that you lived . so many incredible accomplishments . you , dina abbott mergeron , in all your ... brash , uncompromising , glass - ceiling - exploding glory . i 'm proud of you , mother . i 'm proud to be your son . and i love you . dina : oh . jackie . jackie . [ chuckling ] i love you , too . yes . oh . oh . billy : you know , adam believes that he murdered you . okay ? and any thought of him having remorse is out the window when he incriminated victoria . victor : yeah , but the evidence he planted is just too neat . that may very well be his undoing . billy : okay , let 's just say you 're right . the police figure out that victoria was framed , and they drop the case . or the jury acquits her because they smell a rat . fine . it does n't matter , because adam is not gon na stop . he is gon na continue to come after victoria . victoria : good . i hope he does . i hope he digs himself a hole so deep that he can never get out of it . i want him to be punished . billy : i 'm not gon na let you risk your life to make that happen , vick . victoria : billy , i feel it in my gut that adam is gon na botch this , big time . we 're just gon na have to pretend that dad is dead for a little bit longer . billy : [ sighs ] nikki : all right , then . for now , we keep the masquerade going . victor : i suggest we wait and watch , see what adam does now that victoria 's out on bail . victoria : billy , are you with us ? adam : letter to all media . you have failed dismally in your feeble attempts to capture the life of victor newman . there is no mention of how cruel or controlling he can be . there 's no mention how the doting patriarch could viciously turn on the people he claimed to love . there 's no mention of what drove him -- how his impoverished mother was forced to choose between her two sons , taking the youngest and putting victor in an orphanage . there 's some clickbait for you . a window into the great man . maybe victor did n't want to choose between his children knowing what that felt like , so he made us compete for his attention , for his love . a place in his empire . but the price of admission was always blind loyalty . and if you challenged him , there were consequences . and i always challenged him . [ scoffs ] that was my default setting . got my office moved to the men 's room just so dad could make a point . [ chuckles ] that one -- that one is funny . but most of them weren't . um ... the slights , the constant put - downs . never - ending maneuvering to stay one step ahead . and [ sighs ] sometimes we got downright mean . you know , wondering if there was ever a way that we would coexist . but we always managed to . until ... it was just one more move in the game for me . i just -- i wanted the upper hand . i did n't want this . i did n't want you gone . or did i ? jack : you know when you 're with mother these days , and you talk about the past or the present or the future , it does n't matter , she does n't get it , she 's barely there ? traci : yeah , she rarely responds to anything anymore . jack : okay , well , victor 's death made me realize once again how quickly things change . and it inspired me to really talk to mother . i mean really talk to her . i shared with her my epiphany -- how i saw her life in a whole new light . i had to say this to her , traci , while she was still here , even if i got nothing back . but ... boy , did i get something back . traci : really ? what ? jack : i told her i understood . that i forgave her . that i admired her . that i loved her . and like a miracle , she said that back to me . traci : she did ? jack : not in a parroting way . i mean , with meaning . she looked me in the eye , and she said , [ voice breaking ] `` jackie , i love you , too . `` traci : oh ! wow . jack : it was so powerful . it would -- and it reminded me what an incredible life she had actually lived . what an amazing , powerful , exceptional woman she was . and it hit me like that . just hit me . this is an incredible story . our story . dad 's story . dina 's story .

'cause we are stronger together . adam : well ? is this what you wanted ? is this really what you 've become now , a man that would kill his own father ?

jack takes his mother to the park and has a long talk with her even though she does n't respond to him and her eyes look vacant as she stares straight ahead at the scenery/ jack tells dina he always resented her because of how her leaving had effected him , his father and his sisters . jack tells dina that he now realizes that she wanted more out of life than woman could have at that time . jack tells dina that he is sorry that he judged her so harshly and that he is proud of all that she accomplished at a time when women were n't allowed to have dreams outside of a home and family and then he tells her he loves her . dina has a brief lucid moment and looks at jack and tells him she loves him too and they hug . jack returns home and tells traci what happened at the park and tells her he wants to write the story of the abbott 's for the sake of their family and asks traci to help him . traci thinks its a great idea and she is thrilled to help jack with his new project . billy is upset with victor and nikki because the plan went wrong and he wants to stop it now but when victoria gets out of jail on bail she tells them they must continue with the plan until they have adam exactly where they want him . adam is feeling guilty and it is eating him up inside he spends the day reading articles about victor on his tablet and remembering the times victor visited him on the farm when he was a little boy . adam records a long letter to the media on his phone telling them about the real victor newman . adam also wonders if things would have been different if his mom had told him victor was his father sooner than she did maybe this would n't have happened . adam looks at himself in the mirror and wonders if his mother wanted him to grow up to be a man who killed his own father . sharon ignores advice from rey to stay away from adam because she could end up getting hurt and she arrives at adam 's door because she feels adam needs her .

[ sighs ] the loving father and grandfather who turned on his own son ... tried to put him down like a rabid dog . run down in the road . and why ? why ? ! why ? billy : you know , i thought the whole point of this charade was to somehow get adam to slip up and confess to attempted murder . but you 're having a hard time accepting the fact that your son wanted you dead , victor . you 're holding onto this illusion that he is a decent person , and that you alone can save him . victor : my son needs help , desperately . billy : [ scoffs ] victor : but i do n't expect you to feel any compassion for him whatsoever . in fact , i know you have none . nikki : neither one of us fault you for that , billy . we 're just asking you to be patient . work with us , not against us . billy : okay , well , let 's start here -- adam is not playing the same kind of chess game that you are -- why ? because he is not playing a game . nikki : okay , this is not helping -- billy : no , you think this is what you do , you dance around in circles . but the rules have changed . the game is dangerous . and victoria is stuck in the middle . so if you 're not gon na protect her , then i will . jack : i 've known victoria since she was a little girl . so has paul . i mean , beneath his professional facade , he 's got to be as shocked by this as we are . traci : okay . [ sighs ] so , if you do n't think it 's pent - up resentment , why in the world would she want her beloved father dead ? jack : victor did the right thing . he -- he put her in charge while he dealt with his illness . traci : mm - hmm . jack : she had everything she wanted . traci : okay , so , m - maybe there was something going on that nobody else knew about but the two of them . jack : what , like embezzlement ? traci : no , no . she 's fabulously wealthy . jack : exactly . [ traci sighs ] i keep going back to my last conversation with victor . we were at society having a drink , talking about our lives . all very civilized . and given the fact that we spent most of our lives trying to destroy each other , that was momentous . traci : [ chuckles ] i remember you talking about it . jack : he 'd stepped back from newman because of his illness . a company he had created , spent his whole life building . a company that formed who he was . and he seemed at peace with that decision . traci : i wonder if -- if he did n't help inspire this new attitude you have about jabot . jack : i do n't know . maybe . his ego certainly would n't have allowed him to admit if he was n't up to the task . in his mind , he was j -- he was humoring nikki , giving his full attention to his recovery . but i saw the effect this illness had on him -- lack of concentration . that sharp mind was not that sharp . and i ca n't help but wonder if it was a whole lot worse for victor than he ever let on . when we found out he passed , you know , the suddenness of it all , it -- it made me think -- traci : jack , what ? jack : he was always in such control of his life . what if he decided he did n't want to live a life without that control ? and it made me think of dina . and all she 's going through . and ... how every moment is so precious . nikki : look , we are all on the same page where adam is concerned . but we need to work together to protect victoria , not worry about who is to blame . now , victor is feeling better now that he 's back on the correct dose of medication , but he 's not 100 % yet . i would imagine that we 're all feeling a little fragile after everything that has happened , so let 's at least agree to be kind to one another . billy : look , i 'm sorry i went off on you . i know that adam is your son , and this has been a blow to you . victor : you ca n't begin to imagine . nikki : victor and i know it has n't been easy for you , dealing with adam 's resurrection . victor : even i can see that you have been going through hell lately , billy . [ cellphone rings ] billy : it 's victoria . nikki : [ gasps ] oh ! billy : hey . how are you ? what 's going on ? victoria : i 'm fine . i 'm just still waiting to be arraigned . billy : why ? why is it taking so long ? victoria : i 'm not sure . but my attorney 's all over it . billy : i 'm here with your mom and dad . we 're talking strategy . i 'm gon na come down there and -- victoria : put me on speaker . billy : okay . victoria : mom ? dad ? nikki : yes , we 're here , darling . victoria : hello , sweetheart . i 'm so happy to hear your voice . nikki : we 're just sick about what you 're going through . billy : i 'm trying to convince them to abandon the plan , vick . victoria : i want you to listen , all of you -- i should be out soon . until then , please do n't do anything . billy : i need to find out what 's going on with vick . victor : hold your horses , all right ? she was very explicit about us not doing anything . billy : yeah , i know . but i 'm not just gon na stand here and wait for more information . i mean , why the delayed arraignment ? why has n't she been charged yet ? is she gon na get bail ? victor : we 'll find out soon enough . billy : has it not occurred to you that adam could be behind the scenes making this all more difficult ? i mean , he got michael installed as the new d.a . , which means he 's got leverage over him , right ? nikki : billy . billy , please try to relax . trust that victoria can handle herself . billy : no , it 's adam that i do n't trust . adam : whoever wrote this does not know the meaning of the word `` research . `` just cobble together a bunch of puff pieces from the business rags . `` driven . `` `` admired . `` what -- sounds like a car , not a person . people reading this want to know , who was the real victor newman ? and this is what you tell them . `` competitive . `` wow ! wow . that is so generic . `` legend . `` yeah . yeah , in your own mind . `` ruthless . `` now , that -- that is half true . i mean , that 's what you wanted everybody to think , right , dad ? all the sheeple who supposedly looked up to you ? i mean , fear is the great motivator , after all . but still , you could be ruthless sometimes . but that is n't the whole story . it 's not even close . not even close . young adam : happy birthday , mr . newman . how old are you ? young victor : ohh , how old am i ? [ laughs ] young adam : is it time for cake ? young victor : let me explain that to you after you open this . young adam : what is it ? young victor : well , there 's only one way to find out -- you open it . oh , yeah . now , you do n't want someone to hit you , do you ? right . so , the first thing you learn is to defend yourself , okay ? so whenever someone throws a punch at your face , you go like this -- bah ! do you understand ? so , you throw a punch right now , right here , at my face . do it . do it . bah ! do it again . bah ! young victor : your mom tells me you know a lot about airplanes . what do you know about this one ? young adam : i know what kind of engines it has . young victor : oh , you do ? young adam : br710 , with 14,000 pounds of thrust . young victor : how do you know that ? that 's impressive . what else do you want to know ? young adam : i think i remember meeting you . young victor : yeah , a long time ago . young adam : you gave me boxing gloves . young victor : you remember that ? young adam : and your name . it 's victor . just like mine . young victor : yeah , just like yours . adam : god , how did it go so wrong ? rey : yeah , paul also wondered if i could be objective where adam 's concerned . sharon : can you ? rey : i 'm not gon na rehash what happened between you and me , and why . i 've accepted it . whatever feelings i may have ... part of being a cop is separating your personal life from the job . sharon : in social work , also . although i understand how difficult that can be . but i know how much integrity you have , rey . it 's one of the things i 've always liked about you . listen , victor and adam have always had a complicated relationship . it 's love and resentment and rage all tangled up into one . rey : well , that sounds pretty volatile . sharon : well , it has been , at times . but when i looked into adam 's eyes and i asked him about victor , he swore to me that this is not what he wanted . and i know him , rey . rey : y - you want to believe that you can see into his heart . adam 's just a guy with a -- with a conscience and a soul who 's just been misunderstood . but adam declared war on the entire newman family , and he 's made it very clear that he meant it . the way he went after nick 's son put them both through hell . he turns on the people he loves if they do n't do his bidding , sharon . he tried to implicate chelsea into calvin 's death because she did n't jump at the chance to get back together with him . sharon : okay , and then he chose to drop that custody case . and now he and chelsea are getting along just fine . look , i know that adam can sometimes be very emotional or impulsive , but he reigns himself back in when he realizes he 's gone too far . rey : the facts still paint a very dark picture of the guy . it 's the reason i was worried about you being drawn into adam 's orbit again . i did n't want you to end up like victoria . as collateral damage . it 's what i 've been trying to protect you from all along . i did n't want you to get hurt . i still don't. `` the young and the restless `` will continue . jack : there you go . dina : hmm . jack : you a little cold ? i have just the thing . there we go . if you like , we can stop at that little pie shop further down , pick up some cider and spice cookies . we can take them back to your room . if you want . traci and i were talking earlier about victor . victor newman ? i always thought you and he had a lot in common . both smart , tough , successful in business . difficult relationship with your families . there was a time i thought i could never forgive what victor had done to me , and to our family . one day i realized , i was nurturing all that anger . living on it . feeding from it . letting it become a part of who i was . i 'm telling you , mother , i never felt more liberated than the day i let all that go . you want to go get some cookies ? here . come with me . come on . okay ? young adam : i bet you ca n't read as good as my daddy . young victor : oh , yeah ? you want to bet ? i 'll try . but you know something ? i 'm gon na have to put on my glasses . now , let 's see , here . young victor : now , you stand over there . right there . this is a soccer ball , right ? young adam : yeah . young victor : so when i roll it to you , you kick it back to me . young adam : okay . young victor : okay ? young adam : okay . young victor : okay . good . and again . good . and again . yeah ! young adam : mr. newman , your name is the same as mine . young victor : that 's right . it is . young adam : i never knew anyone else with my name . hope : and you know what , honey ? it 's a wonderful name . a wonderful , strong name , just like the kind of man you 're gon na grow up to be someday . young adam : like daddy ? hope : oh ! yes , darling . just like daddy . adam : ugh . what if -- what if my mom never made you swear to keep it a secret from me ? i mean , what if i knew that you were my dad the whole time growing up ? [ sighs ] when i was going through those years of trying to figure out who i was ... [ groans ] [ sniffles ] well ... maybe none of this would have happened . [ sighs ] sharon : a part of me knows that you could be right . adam could have felt provoked enough to do something terrible to victor . rey : adam 's made no secret about his intentions to take down every newman in his path . what more proof do you need ? you still think you can change him . you can't . nikki : oh , darling ! victoria : hi , mom . nikki : i 'm so happy to see you . we 've been so worried . victoria : oh ! victor : my sweetheart . oh , my baby . victoria : dad . victor : did they treat you all right , huh ? victoria : like any other guest of the city . billy : i told victoria we have a lot to discuss , like the delayed arraignment . lawyer said she did n't know why . if she did , she was n't telling me . victoria : i think she was just being paranoid . she did n't want to answer any questions in the courtroom in case someone overheard us . billy : vick , it 's not paranoia when somebody 's trying to pin murder on you . victor : billy thinks that adam may have manipulated your case . victoria : for what purpose ? billy : to shake you up . to show how powerful he thinks he is . victoria : well , given that dad is alive , i - i am not in any legal jeopardy . billy : but adam does n't know that . victoria : [ sighs ] that 's true . victor : sweetheart , you may still be in jeopardy . nikki : adam has crossed the line with both you and your father . to a point that i thought would have been unthinkable . he is much more treacherous than we realized . victor : and , billy , you have been lobbying all morning to end this . billy : it gets victoria off the hook . but it does not mean that adam is gon na stop trying to decimate this family . victoria : no , we 're gon na stick to the original plan , and we 're gon na see this through . we have too much at stake to pull the plug before we have adam where we want him . jack : we 've done a lot of walking today . let 's sit right here , okay ? here . it 's okay . there you go . you seem a little warm . i 'm gon na take this off , okay ? you all right ? hey , you know , i have n't told you about my trip to sedona . i was feeling , i do n't know , a little at loose ends , and so i decided to give myself a holiday . take a little time to reflect . what is it they say ? an unexamined life is no life at all . i guess you could say i was , i do n't know , searching for myself . and in the process , i learned something important . about you . for a long time , i -- i think i looked at your life in the lens of a ... [ sighs ] i do n't know . a broken kid . all i could think of was how your actions affected me and the girls and dad . well , while i was away , i started looking at things in a very different way . i tried to -- tried to get a bigger picture of you . who you were . in the context of , you know , the time we lived in . what was expected of you , how few opportunities there were , and ... how at odds all that seemed with who you were , what you wanted to be . here was this young woman with a bright mind who needed more challenges , more responsibilities , and ... i do n't know . i -- i think you were after things women were n't supposed to go after . women were told they could n't go after . but you did . you wanted more . you wanted a bigger , fuller life , and that 's what you went after . for a very long time , i looked at that as a flaw instead of what it is . it was an act of true bravery . i know i judged you . i know i told you more than once that i could never forgive what you did . i do n't know if you can hear me . i do n't know if you even recognize who i am . but i am the one doing the apologizing now . [ sighs ] i never gave you the credit you deserved for the amazing life that you lived . so many incredible accomplishments . you , dina abbott mergeron , in all your ... brash , uncompromising , glass - ceiling - exploding glory . i 'm proud of you , mother . i 'm proud to be your son . and i love you . dina : oh . jackie . jackie . [ chuckling ] i love you , too . yes . oh . oh . billy : you know , adam believes that he murdered you . okay ? and any thought of him having remorse is out the window when he incriminated victoria . victor : yeah , but the evidence he planted is just too neat . that may very well be his undoing . billy : okay , let 's just say you 're right . the police figure out that victoria was framed , and they drop the case . or the jury acquits her because they smell a rat . fine . it does n't matter , because adam is not gon na stop . he is gon na continue to come after victoria . victoria : good . i hope he does . i hope he digs himself a hole so deep that he can never get out of it . i want him to be punished . billy : i 'm not gon na let you risk your life to make that happen , vick . victoria : billy , i feel it in my gut that adam is gon na botch this , big time . we 're just gon na have to pretend that dad is dead for a little bit longer . billy : [ sighs ] nikki : all right , then . for now , we keep the masquerade going . victor : i suggest we wait and watch , see what adam does now that victoria 's out on bail . victoria : billy , are you with us ? adam : letter to all media . you have failed dismally in your feeble attempts to capture the life of victor newman . there is no mention of how cruel or controlling he can be . there 's no mention how the doting patriarch could viciously turn on the people he claimed to love . there 's no mention of what drove him -- how his impoverished mother was forced to choose between her two sons , taking the youngest and putting victor in an orphanage . there 's some clickbait for you . a window into the great man . maybe victor did n't want to choose between his children knowing what that felt like , so he made us compete for his attention , for his love . a place in his empire . but the price of admission was always blind loyalty . and if you challenged him , there were consequences . and i always challenged him . [ scoffs ] that was my default setting . got my office moved to the men 's room just so dad could make a point . [ chuckles ] that one -- that one is funny . but most of them weren't . um ... the slights , the constant put - downs . never - ending maneuvering to stay one step ahead . and [ sighs ] sometimes we got downright mean . you know , wondering if there was ever a way that we would coexist . but we always managed to . until ... it was just one more move in the game for me . i just -- i wanted the upper hand . i did n't want this . i did n't want you gone . or did i ? jack : you know when you 're with mother these days , and you talk about the past or the present or the future , it does n't matter , she does n't get it , she 's barely there ? traci : yeah , she rarely responds to anything anymore . jack : okay , well , victor 's death made me realize once again how quickly things change . and it inspired me to really talk to mother . i mean really talk to her . i shared with her my epiphany -- how i saw her life in a whole new light . i had to say this to her , traci , while she was still here , even if i got nothing back . but ... boy , did i get something back . traci : really ? what ? jack : i told her i understood . that i forgave her . that i admired her . that i loved her . and like a miracle , she said that back to me . traci : she did ? jack : not in a parroting way . i mean , with meaning . she looked me in the eye , and she said , [ voice breaking ] `` jackie , i love you , too . `` traci : oh ! wow . jack : it was so powerful . it would -- and it reminded me what an incredible life she had actually lived . what an amazing , powerful , exceptional woman she was . and it hit me like that . just hit me . this is an incredible story . our story . dad 's story . dina 's story .

's trust fund because he is broke .

'cause that 's where she 's gon na be if we do n't find her soon . lulu : okay , you do n't know that . lucas : i need some air . lulu : i 'm so sorry . dante : nah . he 's just scared . lulu : joss called this morning . he had to lie to her . dante : how are you holding up ? lulu : just trying to keep everything going at the house , make sure bobbie 's eating , that lucas is getting enough sleep . dante : who 's taking care of you ? you know , you can -- you can talk to me . lulu : i know . i think that your time is better spent just trying to find my cousin . what am i gon na tell you ? tell you that i 'm scared ? dante : i do n't know . just does n't hurt to know that you 're not alone . i wo n't let you down again . lulu : you did n't let me down . life let me down . i just -- i 'm a little gun- shy . i feel like i 'm losing everybody , and it scares me even more . dante : it 's okay to be scared . just know that you can trust me , and i promise you i will bring carly home . carly : [ muffled ] come on . come on . [ creaking ] heather : i 'll thank you to take your hand off me , sir . victor : i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to startle you . heather : so , coming up behind a woman -- that usually works for you ? i 'll tell you something , pal . i 've taken down men twice your size , so a word to the wise . victor : i 'll consider myself forewarned . heather : who are you ? what are you doing here ? victor : victor cassadine at your service . my great - nephew is master of this island . and you are ? mrs. mcclain : i asked you a question , young man . what are you doing here ? robbing the dead ? franco : rob the dead ? me ? no . w - well ... although for what they charge for a decent funeral ... mrs. mcclain : why are you here ? franco : i 'm digging a grave because i 'm a grave digger . mrs. mcclain : really ? [ scoffs ] well , i 've met all the grave diggers , and you 're not one of them . lucas : hey , it 's me , l - lucas . brad : hi . you okay ? lucas : no . i - i mean , yeah . i 'm fine . it 's just ... brad : your dad ? lucas : no . my sister . uh , the guy the cops had in custody , the guy they think kidnapped her , he escaped . brad : i 'm so sorry . is there anything i can do ? lucas : i could use a hug . any chance you 're free tonight ? brad : uh ... lucas : i mean , we do n't have to . we can just get a drink . felix : after everything you did to spin that lie , inviting your mobbed - up ex- boyfriend into our lives , making a liar out of me , you go and volunteer to tell patrick yourself . sabrina : i had to . felix : yes , you did . but why now ? sabrina : because emma overheard me talking to elizabeth . i had to tell patrick the truth . now he has to tell robin . patrick : i did n't want this . i wanted us to have a fresh start . robin : it 's not your fault . [ sighs ] i guess it 's no one 's fault . sabrina ... thought she was marrying you . it sounds like she still tried to protect you . patrick : you must have some questions . robin : yeah . patrick : okay . what are they ? robin : the woman you were about to marry is having your child . how does that make you feel ? elizabeth : what do you mean ben is n't brad 's son ? that 's exactly what britt told patrick . nikolas : i - i know . and that 's just not accurate . elizabeth : you mean britt lied ? wow , that is so unlike her . okay , so ben is n't brad 's or patrick 's . whose baby is he ? nikolas : i do n't know . elizabeth : new girlfriend wo n't tell you ? nikolas : she does n't know either . elizabeth : what ? ! nikolas : let 's just say it 's from an anonymous donor . elizabeth : [ scoffs ] okay , i do n't understand what that means . nikolas : okay , she procured some sperm from the lab and ... elizabeth : the lab ? why would she need brad to -- oh . that 's why she put brad in charge of running the lab , so that he could get her sperm . and then he covered the whole thing up . nikolas : elizabeth , will you just wait a second ? elizabeth : oh , my god . nikolas , do you have any idea what she 's done ? she -- she works here . she 's an employee . not only did she violate her contract and abuse her privileges , she broke the law . you ca n't just steal someone 's sperm . nikolas : it was n't her idea , okay . it was her mother 's . dr. obrecht : you really should confine the children to the nursery . britt : what do you want , mother ? dr. obrecht : look at me , britta . i 've been mistakenly arrested , imprisoned , exonerated , and freed , and now i 'm running general hospital . i need some stability . britt : get a dog . dr. obrecht : i did see a lovely doberman on the street last week . but no . i need ... a home first . britt : no . dr. obrecht : yes . britt : you ca n't . dr. obrecht : of course i can . britt : you are not moving in here . dr. obrecht : i most certainly am . make room for mutter . elizabeth : pilfering sperm from a lab is not just an ethical breach . it 's a crime . nikolas : i know . i know . will you please just not tell anyone ? elizabeth : nikolas , if britt and her mother are treating the lab like a - a biological atm , then god only know what they can do . and that little boy has a dad who does n't even know he has a son . you of all people should understand that . nikolas : from what i understand , the donors are donating their sperm , right ? elizabeth : no , no . not all of them . some of them are our patients awaiting in- vitro fertilization . and ben has a right to know where he came from . what if he inherits some terrible disease ? he should know where he came from . nikolas : okay , you made your point . thankfully , ben is perfectly healthy aside from an allergy or two . elizabeth : so you 're okay with all this ? nikolas : britt has n't hurt anyone . elizabeth : really ? nikolas : look , if this gets out , ben could wind up in foster care , and come on , he needs his mother . elizabeth : do you really want to get involved with a child whose parentage is this questionable ? have n't you been hurt enough ? nikolas : i guess , but britt 's suffered enough . and with parents like hers , the wsb will just quash the charges . and they scuttled far worse . elizabeth : [ sighs ] nikolas : i 'm sorry . i 've got to go . elizabeth : do n't be mad at me . nikolas : i 'm not mad at you , elizabeth . i just have to go get this prescription filled . elizabeth : here . give it to me . i 'll take it to the front of the line . nikolas : it 's for ben 's allergies . elizabeth : to what ? nikolas : latex , some fruits . elizabeth : does britt have the same allergy ? nikolas : no . why ? elizabeth : well , because some allergies are inherited , and if it did n't come from britt , then maybe it came from ben 's father , whoever that may be . dante : no , look , unfortunately our guy 's 6 feet . uh , thanks . thanks anyways . lulu : was that about carly ? dante : uh , thanks . no , franco . false alarm . lulu : dante falconeri , did you eat strawberry jam for breakfast ? dante : no , ma'am . i used the wrong gloves when i was handling some evidence . lulu : the cream 's not working ? dante : no , it 's working fine . i just have n't had time to get it refilled . lulu : weird thing about this allergy of yours ... lucas : i could meet you at the floating rib . it 'd be just like old times . brad : [ chuckles ] old times ? i 've seen you once . lucas : and you 're still thinking about it . so are we on ? brad : i 'm gon na be with felix . i 'm sorry . lucas : i see . brad : look , i 've -- i 've got to go . i hope everything works out with your sister . i really do . take care . lucas : [ sighs ] lulu : latex , fruits . dante : all right , settle down . it 's humiliating enough without you laughing about it , making it worse . lulu : i was just gon na say that you are now not the only person i know with that allergy . lucas : dante , i 'm sorry , man . i did n't mean to go off on you like that . dante : do n't worry about it . we 're all feeling it a little bit , right ? lucas : so any news ? lulu : lots of calls . nothing solid . you know , i am going to go over to g.h . and get this prescription filled for you . dante : you do n't have to do that . i can do it . i just -- lucas : no , no , no . lulu , you stay here . i 'll do whatever it is . at least i 'll feel useful . lulu : are you sure ? lucas : absolutely . yeah , it 's no problem at all . patrick : i do n't know how i feel . i 've been lied to so many times this past year that i do n't even trust my own instincts . robin : okay , well , you ... you asked me to have another child , and i said no . patrick : you said not yet . which i understand , robin . i get that . you just got home . emma needs you . i need you . it 's too soon . robin : yeah , but that does n't change the fact that you want another child and -- and now you 're having one with someone else . patrick : i 'm sorry . i just ... wanted five minutes where we could just get back to normal , and ... were you looking at this ? victor : and you are ? heather : an employee of mr. cassadine . household staff . victor : really ? then you can show me in . heather : afraid not . i 'm below - stairs , if you know what i mean . and mr. cassadine is very strict . it 's the servants entrance for me . you 'll have to show yourself in . ta - ta . victor : what a strange woman . franco : you have n't seen me here before because i 'm the new grave digger . uh , name 's yorick . fair enough . mrs. mcclain : i was wondering , uh , why are you using your hands instead of a shovel ? franco : well , i 'm -- i 'm -- you know , first day , so i just , uh ... i believe in learning from the ground up . get it ? ground up ? 'cause the ... shovels tomorrow . tomorrow , shovels 101 . mrs. mcclain : what did you do before this ? franco : ice - road trucker . mrs. mcclain : and somehow your hands have no calluses . franco : i wear gloves 'cause it 's cold out there on the icy road . mrs. mcclain : yeah . i 'm getting cold . i think i better go . franco : okay . do n't let me keep you . britt : you are not moving in here . forget about it . dr. obrecht : such a stingy girl . there 's plenty of room for both of us . britt : there 's not enough room for both of us in this town , let alone in this house . it 's bad enough i have to see you at the hospital every day . dr. obrecht : i do n't appreciate this new attitude , britta . if you ca n't do me this favor , perhaps i 'll take my case directly to nikolas . maybe he 'll be generous with me if i let slip that my ungrateful daughter has his sister 's son . carly : come on . come on . come on . oh ! [ panting ] okay , carly . okay . you can cry later . you got to get out of here . all right . heather : yoo - hoo ! i 'm back ! did you miss me ? were you a good girl while i was gone ? felix : i 'll come home with you , and we can tell carlos together . sabrina : no , no , no . you 've got plans . felix : no , brad will understand why i have to cancel . my best friend is about to tell her latin lover the baby she said was his is n't . i would n't miss that for the world . sabrina : [ chuckles ] felix : oh , she 's smiling . sabrina : i do n't know what i would do without you , fee . brad : lucas . lucas : hey . brad : what are you doing here ? lucas : i 'm not a stalker . i 'm just here to fill a prescription for my cousin . brad : i hope that means they found your sister . lucas : [ sighs ] i wish . but no . i 'm just , uh , trying to be useful . brad : ah . lucas : oh , so how was mr. first date ? brad : it was good . lucas : i hope you changed the sheets . brad : ha ha . it was n't that kind of date . we did n't even kiss . lucas : oh , i figured you rounded that base early . brad : when it comes to felix , i used to be a little ... pushy . lucas : and that was a problem ? brad : let 's just say i was edging on a felony one . so now i 've got to do a little ... lucas : penance . brad : i 've got to build a little trust . lucas : well , if you ever get tired of life in the slow lane ... you know where to find me . elizabeth : if britt went through the proper channels , she would have a detailed medical history of ben 's father . she could anticipate problems like this . nikolas : well , she did n't , so she wo n't . elizabeth : yes , but she should . she could just work backwards . nikolas : elizabeth , will you please just drop it ? i do n't want to fight with you about this , and i certainly do n't want to lose our friendship . but it 's britt 's child . it 's her decision . elizabeth : well , i do n't want to lose our friendship over this , either . nikolas : fine . then find a way to get along with her , please . because she 's part of my life now . elizabeth : i still do n't trust her . i just do n't want to see you get hurt . lulu : you are gon na make that worse . dante : oh , i know . so , you were saying before your cousin came back you know someone else that has the same allergy ? lulu : ben westbourne . dante : britt 's baby boy ? lulu : yeah , i was out visiting nikolas . i was watching the baby , and ben had a rash exactly like you get . nikolas says ben has the same allergy . is n't that funny ? britt : you 're not gon na tell nikolas anything . you ca n't . you 're as guilty as i am . dr. obrecht : [ scoffs ] britta , you disappoint me . did you honestly think mutter has n't thought of that ? believe me , if the truth ever comes out , you will pay , not me . i had nothing to do with it . in fact ... i was n't even here . relax . all you have to do is convince your prince to invite your mother to stay here . britt : he wo n't allow it . dr. obrecht : nonsense . just bat those pretty eyelashes you inherited from mutter . he 'll do anything for you . britt : can i help you ? victor : pardon the interruption , ladies . i did knock , but it seems the butler 's otherwise engaged . i 'm victor cassadine , nikolas ' great - uncle . britt : oh , i 'm -- i 'm so sorry . nikolas did n't mention a visitor . victor : yes , well , he did n't know i was coming . it 's a bit of a surprise . and you are ? britt : i 'm britt westbourne . hi . this is my mother . [ sighs ] victor : dr. liesl obrecht . britt : you two know each other ? victor : [ chuckles ] robin : you promised emma a story . patrick : yeah , i will in a second . i mean , were you -- were you looking at this ? victor : you tell anybody about this project ... and you will fail the opportunity to save your friend . robin : i just -- you know , we never got a chance to say goodbye . patrick : i 'm sorry . i know how much he meant to you . robin : yeah . jason will always be in my prayers . patrick : go put her to bed . robin : how much you still mean to me . heather : ta - da ! this is the same kind of knife the police have with your blood and franco 's fingerprints on it . so when they examine your wounds , it 'll all match up . it 's a genius plan . i just have to execute it . nice knowing you , carly . not . carly : feeling 's mutual , bitch . heather : [ gasps ] carly : [ grunts ] felix : again , no updates . what am i supposed to do , call the pcpd myself ? elizabeth : do n't let obrecht catch you checking your phone . you 'll be on bed pans for a year . felix : obrecht can kiss my foot . elizabeth : hey , hey , hey . you 've already been caught once dissing her . you want that to happen again ? felix : i 'm supposed to go help sabrina through a crisis , and before i do that , i want to make sure that carly 's at least closer to being found . elizabeth : okay , i 'm sorry . i forgot that you are friends with carly . felix : we are , and carly 's been missing for weeks . every time the press posts a new update , it 's more bad news , and now suddenly no updates at all . elizabeth : well , do n't jump to the worst case . felix : excuse me . the woman was dating franco , and now she 's vanished . how much worst - case can you get ? elizabeth : carly is resilient , and she 's resourceful , and there are a lot of people looking for her . felix : yeah , and the police appear to have mad zero progress . elizabeth : other than the police , i 'm sure sonny has all of his , you know , guys searching for her . felix : i would search for her myself if i knew it 'd do any good . i mean , i can hold sabrina 's hand and offer moral support through what she 's going through , but what can i do for carly ? elizabeth : you can have a little faith . like i said , the woman is resilient . felix : i know . but this is different . this is franco . victor : how could i not know dr. obrecht ? she and her cohort jerry jacks are rather infamous . and they also did commandeer my family 's island as a base for their exploits . dr. obrecht : you were n't using it . britt : um ... [ clears throat ] um , nikolas will be home any minute . can i offer you something to drink ? dr. obrecht : i 'm sure mr. cassadine has somewhere else to be . victor : tea , thanks . britt : mother ? dr. obrecht : i 'm not thirsty . victor : dear liesl . are you trying to get rid of me ? dr. obrecht : [ scoffs ] [ door opens ] britt : oh , i 'm so glad you 're home . nikolas : why ? everything okay ? is ben all right ? britt : yeah , ben 's fine . it -- my mother 's in there with your great - uncle victor . victor : i must say , you 're still as captivating as ever . dr. obrecht : i thought we agreed to go our separate ways , victor . i gave you information on your family and jason morgan , and you arranged for my freedom . if you need something -- victor : the only thing i need , liesl ... is you . lucas : you know what ? forget i said that . i 'm just dealing with a lot at the moment , and obviously my internal editor is failing . brad : lucas , do n't misunderstand . i - i think you 're great . i - i do . i mean , you 're sexy and nice and interesting and open , and if things were different -- lucas : hey , hey , look , i was just playing . far be it from me to get in the way of the next great gay romance . i 'll see you around . felix : brad . brad : ready to go ? felix : i 'm sorry . i ca n't . sabrina 's in a really bad way . i 'm gon na help her out tonight . brad : of course . if , uh , she needs you -- felix : i mean , i 'm really sorry . i was really looking forward to it . but we 'll do it again soon , okay ? brad : yeah . lucas : [ sighs ] elizabeth : i heard you were in town . lucas : yeah , i just wish the circumstances were better . elizabeth : any word on carly ? lucas : no . unless you count franco giving the cops the slip . elizabeth : franco escaped ? lucas : he 's in the wind , as they say . elizabeth : oh , lord . i 'm sorry . i know this is really scary and frustrating , but you can trust anna and dante . lucas : what choice do i have ? oh , uh , in the meantime , i am trying to help out where i can , and i need to get this refilled for dante . elizabeth : can i see that ? lucas : yeah . dante : what are the odds that me and ben westbourne have the same allergy ? mrs. mcclain : detective ? dante : yes , ma'am . mrs. mcclain : i 'm carol mcclain . the desk sergeant told me to speak to you . dante : yes , ms . mcclain , how can i help you ? mrs. mcclain : uh , i think i can help you . i suppose you 're still looking for this man . dante : we are . you have information ? mrs. mcclain : i 've just seen him . dante : when ? mrs. mcclain : a few minutes ago . dante : where ? franco : oh , mother . if you 've hurt carly , so help me , heather , i will kill you all over again . [ both grunting ] [ creaking ] carly : no ! [ creaking continues ] franco : i 'm gon na find you , heather . i 'm coming , carly . [ siren wailing ] franco : no matter what . [ tires screeching ] carly : see you in court , heather . i 'm gone . heather : the only place you 're going is hell . dante : franco ! damn it . mrs. mcclain : oh , thank you . it was very cold in that cemetery . lulu : we really appreciate you coming in . you may have just saved my cousin 's life . mrs. mcclain : well , i hope your husband gets there in time . lulu : husband ? how did you know that ? mrs. mcclain : married ? [ chuckles ] i 've seen you look at each other . and i saw the photo on the desk . elizabeth : that 's odd . i was just handed another tube of the same stuff . dante 's not allergic to latex , is he ? lucas : yeah . and apparently some fruit . there 's no sign of franco . is that a sheet ? dante : looks like it . log it and bag it . someone left a note . what 's it say ? dante : it says , `` you 're gon na pay for this . `` appears to be written in blood . victor : we were close once . perhaps we can be close again . dr. obrecht : impossible . victor : why ? because of faison ? cesar is no longer here . i 'm here , ready to worship you ... the way you always deserved to be worshipped . dr. obrecht : [ chuckles ] carly : let me go , you witch ! [ creaking ] heather : what have you done ? victor : can you deny the feelings between us ? [ distant crashing ] britt : what was that ? [ electricity crackling ] victor : what did i tell you ? we make the earth move . dr. obrecht : do n't be daft . the entire house shook . did you feel that ? nikolas : yes , it was probably just a little tremor . port charles sits on a fault line . i 'll have someone take a look at it tomorrow . victor : nikolas , how nice to see you . nikolas : great - uncle victor . victor : oh , forget the `` uncle . `` just `` victor `` will be fine . nikolas : been a long time . victor : yes . too long . nikolas : what are you doing here ? victor : business . patrick : no story tonight . she 's out . robin : does emma know ? about sabrina 's pregnancy ? patrick : i did n't tell her . as far as i know , she still thinks that it 's carlos ' . robin : well , i certainly do n't look forward to telling her . emma 's been through a lot lately . but we 'll have to deal with it eventually . we 'll all have to deal with it . britt : you 're leaving ? dr. obrecht : yeah , i , uh , i will make other arrangements . britt : so you -- you do n't want to live here anymore ? dr. obrecht : with the foundation crumbling beneath us ? besides , it 's too crowded , what with all these distant relations . so , britta , your secret is safe ... for now , hmm . sabrina : i 'm sorry that you had to cancel with brad . felix : oh , honey , first rule of felix -- make them laugh , make them cry , make them wait . sabrina : [ chuckles ] felix : oh , she laughed . come on , let 's go deal with this latin lover of yours . brad will just have to find another way to entertain himself . lucas : oh . still here ? brad : i 'm headed home . felix had to cancel . lucas : oh . well , my offer still stands . brad : [ sighs ] lucas : what ? ca n't we just still be friends ? just a friendly drink . brad : sure . why not ? [ both chuckle ] mrs. mcclain : you make a lovely couple . any children ? lulu : no . just the two of us . nikolas : this is for ben 's allergies . elizabeth : to what ? nikolas : latex , some fruits . elizabeth : does britt have the same allergy ? nikolas : no . why ? elizabeth : well , because some allergies are inherited , and if it did n't come from britt , then maybe it came from ben 's father , whoever that may be . oh , my god .
carly frays her ropes on a bolt in the post that she is tied to and frees her hands . britt notices that the wall entrance into the catacombs is open . her mother shows up unexpectedly , so britt asks her if she has been in the tunnels . she says no . obrecht informs britt that she is going to move into wyndemere , or she will tell nikolas that ben is his sister 's son . nikolas reveals to elizabeth that ben is n't brad 's son and that that britt 's mother put her up to procuring random sperm from the lab . he asks her not to tell anyone . he gives her ben 's tube of hydrocortisone for a refill . dante tells lulu and lucas that franco escaped . franco goes to the grave where he buried heather and finds a note written in blood that says he will pay . he ca n't believe heather survived . he concludes that heather has carly . a woman startles him when she arrives to visit her dear , departed harold . he says he is the new gravedigger . she goes to the police station and tells dante that she saw franco in the graveyard . franco runs when he sees the police lights . dante tells the officers to take the bloody sheet and note into evidence .
<s>[INST] felix : [ sighs ] seriously ? nothing new on carly . what is this , a press blackout ? what are the cops doing to find her ? brad : bad time ? felix : oh . no , no , no . i was just looking at some updates . nice flower . brad : for you . to commemorate our first date . i had a really great time . felix : me too . brad : just one regret . felix : the crème brûlée . brad : we did n't get a chance to kiss goodnight . sabrina : felix -- [ gasps ] oh . i 'm so sorry . i did n't realize . i 'm sorry . felix : no , w - what 's up ? sabrina : no , nothing . i , um , no , never mind . felix : sabrina , why are you so upset ? sabrina : because , um ... brad : one mississippi ... two mississippi ... felix : okay , what ? sabrina : patrick knows i 'm not carrying carlos ' baby . patrick : i need to talk to you . robin : okay . should i sit down ? patrick : maybe . [ sighs ] it turns out sabrina 's baby ... it 's mine after all . nikolas : hi . elizabeth : hello . how 's my favorite cassadine ? nikolas : [ chuckles ] elizabeth : hey , where 's cameron ? nikolas : i - i dropped him off at lesley 's . i wanted to talk to you about britt . britt : how did that get opened ? [ creaking ] dante : no one goes home until we get our prisoner back . lulu : is this a bad time ? dante : uh , no . no . what 's going on ? lulu : you remember lucas , my cousin ? dante : yeah . hey , man . been a while . lucas : yeah . lulu : too long . dante : what can i do for you ? lucas : we heard about franco . lulu : is it true that he escaped ? dante : unfortunately , yeah . that freak is on the loose . franco : `` you 're going to pay . `` heather webber ! gah ! you survived ? ! how ? ! i killed you ! i -- heather ! gah ! where are you ? ! [ grunts ] aah ! gah ! elizabeth : i can page her for you . nikolas : no , no . i 'm not -- i 'm not looking for britt . i wanted to talk to you . elizabeth : oh . okay . what about ? nikolas : well , the two of you were , uh ... shall i say somewhat frosty with each other today ? elizabeth : hmm . i thought we were kind of civil , all things considered . nikolas : i do n't know . i was just kind of hoping that you might want to -- elizabeth : might want to , what , be friends ? nikolas : no , no . just give her a chance , elizabeth . come on . elizabeth : oh , nikolas , i have given her multiple chances . remember , we 've worked together in the same place for more than a year . and i still do n't like her . i do n't trust her . she tried to get patrick to believe that she was carrying his baby when it was brad cooper 's the whole time . nikolas : yeah , um ... ben is not brad 's son . brad : 901 mississippi ... sabrina : you know , i should go . um , i interrupted you guys . felix : no , no , no . brad : 903 mississippi ... ah . got it . clearly a private thing , and i get the feeling this is gon na take a while . felix : i 'm sorry . brad : hey , no problem . we 'll pick up some other time . felix : why do n't we have a drink after my shift ends ? i mean , unless you already have plans . brad : i would love to have a drink . felix : okay , then . felix : do n't tell me elizabeth ran her mouth . sabrina : no , she promised that she would n't . felix : then how did patrick find out about the baby ? sabrina : i told him . robin : but she said that it was carlos , that it was her ex . patrick : she lied . carlos lied , and she went along with it . robin : why ? why would she lie ? what , because if you were on the fence , then you might have stayed with her ? patrick : robin , you have to understand something , okay ? family is very important to sabrina . it 's part of the reason her and emma bonded so well , 'cause sabrina lost her mother when she was young , and they had that . so when you came back , as hard as it was on her , she accepted it . robin : okay . patrick : she respected our marriage because she lived through what britt tried to do with her baby by inserting herself into my life . robin : i know . i heard all about what happened at the nurses ' ball . patrick : right , so sabrina did n't want that . she does n't -- she does n't want this baby to come between me and you the way britt 's baby almost came between me and her . britt : hello ? is anyone down there ? dr. obrecht : hello ! britt : damn it , mother . you scared me to death . dr. obrecht : you 're the picture of health . stop exaggerating . britt : what are you doing here ? dr. obrecht : oh , ca n't mutter give her daughter a hello , hmm ? britt : [ chuckles ] let me rephrase that . what do you want ? oh , does it have something to do with what 's going on beneath the house ? were you down there puttering around in your favorite playground ? dante : franco 's almost - daughter kiki jerome passed out in the middle of the station , created a distraction , and franco took off . lucas : did it occur to anybody to put the guy in cuffs ? dante : yeah , he was cuffed to the table in the interrogation room , but kiki gave him a paper clip , and he picked the lock . lucas : so once she got him out of the cuffs and caused a diversion , he got past , what , half a dozen cops ? dante : actually , i - i shot him first . is that okay with you ? lulu : what about kiki ? dante : she 's downstairs in lockup . lucas : i assume you 're gon na throw the book at her . lulu : does she know where franco was headed ? dante : if she does , she 's not saying anything . but we 're gon na keep -- lucas : what else are you guys doing to find my sister ? dante : actually we 're doing lots of stuff . we 've got an a.p.b . out on franco . the entire squad is out scouring the city . no one 's going home until we find franco . lucas : that 's it . lulu : lucas ! dante : look , man , we find franco , we find carly . it 's that simple . lucas : but franco 's gone . and you have no idea where . franco : sweet christmas , you frightened me . mrs. mcclain : pish tosh . nothing to be scared of here . franco : really ? cemetery ... middle of the night ... dead of winter . mrs. mcclain : and plenty of company . in fact , my dearly departed harold is waiting for me . franco : harold . your husband ? mrs. mcclain : mm . his grave is right over there , only a stone 's throw from the one you just dug up . um , do you mind explaining to me what you 're doing here , disturbing the dead ? dr. obrecht : you expect me to tramp around those dismal caves in these shoes ? britta , why would you buy such a thing ? it 's anatomically incorrect . you are teaching my grandson that life is one big bowl of mutant plushies . britt : are you sure you were n't in the catacombs ? dr. obrecht : quite . britt : so if i go down there , i 'm not gon na find a new captive . dr. obrecht : i have a hospital to run . if there 's mischief afoot here tonight , it has nothing to do with me . heather : carly , you lucky girl . i 'm about to send you to your maker . [ gasps ] dante : nobody is giving up , lucas . the pcpd will keep working at this till we bring your sister home . lucas : what , in a box ? 'cause that 's where she 's gon na be if we do n't find her soon . lulu : okay , you do n't know that . lucas : i need some air . lulu : i 'm so sorry . dante : nah . he 's just scared . lulu : joss called this morning . he had to lie to her . dante : how are you holding up ? lulu : just trying to keep everything going at the house , make sure bobbie 's eating , that lucas is getting enough sleep . dante : who 's taking care of you ? you know , you can -- you can talk to me . lulu : i know . i think that your time is better spent just trying to find my cousin . what am i gon na tell you ? tell you that i 'm scared ? dante : i do n't know . just does n't hurt to know that you 're not alone . i wo n't let you down again . lulu : you did n't let me down . life let me down . i just -- i 'm a little gun- shy . i feel like i 'm losing everybody , and it scares me even more . dante : it 's okay to be scared . just know that you can trust me , and i promise you i will bring carly home . carly : [ muffled ] come on . come on . [ creaking ] heather : i 'll thank you to take your hand off me , sir . victor : i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to startle you . heather : so , coming up behind a woman -- that usually works for you ? i 'll tell you something , pal . i 've taken down men twice your size , so a word to the wise . victor : i 'll consider myself forewarned . heather : who are you ? what are you doing here ? victor : victor cassadine at your service . my great - nephew is master of this island . and you are ? mrs. mcclain : i asked you a question , young man . what are you doing here ? robbing the dead ? franco : rob the dead ? me ? no . w - well ... although for what they charge for a decent funeral ... mrs. mcclain : why are you here ? franco : i 'm digging a grave because i 'm a grave digger . mrs. mcclain : really ? [ scoffs ] well , i 've met all the grave diggers , and you 're not one of them . lucas : hey , it 's me , l - lucas . brad : hi . you okay ? lucas : no . i - i mean , yeah . i 'm fine . it 's just ... brad : your dad ? lucas : no . my sister . uh , the guy the cops had in custody , the guy they think kidnapped her , he escaped . brad : i 'm so sorry . is there anything i can do ? lucas : i could use a hug . any chance you 're free tonight ? brad : uh ... lucas : i mean , we do n't have to . we can just get a drink . felix : after everything you did to spin that lie , inviting your mobbed - up ex- boyfriend into our lives , making a liar out of me , you go and volunteer to tell patrick yourself . sabrina : i had to . felix : yes , you did . but why now ? sabrina : because emma overheard me talking to elizabeth . i had to tell patrick the truth . now he has to tell robin . patrick : i did n't want this . i wanted us to have a fresh start . robin : it 's not your fault . [ sighs ] i guess it 's no one 's fault . sabrina ... thought she was marrying you . it sounds like she still tried to protect you . patrick : you must have some questions . robin : yeah . patrick : okay . what are they ? robin : the woman you were about to marry is having your child . how does that make you feel ? elizabeth : what do you mean ben is n't brad 's son ? that 's exactly what britt told patrick . nikolas : i - i know . and that 's just not accurate . elizabeth : you mean britt lied ? wow , that is so unlike her . okay , so ben is n't brad 's or patrick 's . whose baby is he ? nikolas : i do n't know . elizabeth : new girlfriend wo n't tell you ? nikolas : she does n't know either . elizabeth : what ? ! nikolas : let 's just say it 's from an anonymous donor . elizabeth : [ scoffs ] okay , i do n't understand what that means . nikolas : okay , she procured some sperm from the lab and ... elizabeth : the lab ? why would she need brad to -- oh . that 's why she put brad in charge of running the lab , so that he could get her sperm . and then he covered the whole thing up . nikolas : elizabeth , will you just wait a second ? elizabeth : oh , my god . nikolas , do you have any idea what she 's done ? she -- she works here . she 's an employee . not only did she violate her contract and abuse her privileges , she broke the law . you ca n't just steal someone 's sperm . nikolas : it was n't her idea , okay . it was her mother 's . dr. obrecht : you really should confine the children to the nursery . britt : what do you want , mother ? dr. obrecht : look at me , britta . i 've been mistakenly arrested , imprisoned , exonerated , and freed , and now i 'm running general hospital . i need some stability . britt : get a dog . dr. obrecht : i did see a lovely doberman on the street last week . but no . i need ... a home first . britt : no . dr. obrecht : yes . britt : you ca n't . dr. obrecht : of course i can . britt : you are not moving in here . dr. obrecht : i most certainly am . make room for mutter . elizabeth : pilfering sperm from a lab is not just an ethical breach . it 's a crime . nikolas : i know . i know . will you please just not tell anyone ? elizabeth : nikolas , if britt and her mother are treating the lab like a - a biological atm , then god only know what they can do . and that little boy has a dad who does n't even know he has a son . you of all people should understand that . nikolas : from what i understand , the donors are donating their sperm , right ? elizabeth : no , no . not all of them . some of them are our patients awaiting in- vitro fertilization . and ben has a right to know where he came from . what if he inherits some terrible disease ? he should know where he came from . nikolas : okay , you made your point . thankfully , ben is perfectly healthy aside from an allergy or two . elizabeth : so you 're okay with all this ? nikolas : britt has n't hurt anyone . elizabeth : really ? nikolas : look , if this gets out , ben could wind up in foster care , and come on , he needs his mother . elizabeth : do you really want to get involved with a child whose parentage is this questionable ? have n't you been hurt enough ? nikolas : i guess , but britt 's suffered enough . and with parents like hers , the wsb will just quash the charges . and they scuttled far worse . elizabeth : [ sighs ] nikolas : i 'm sorry . i 've got to go . elizabeth : do n't be mad at me . nikolas : i 'm not mad at you , elizabeth . i just have to go get this prescription filled . elizabeth : here . give it to me . i 'll take it to the front of the line . nikolas : it 's for ben 's allergies . elizabeth : to what ? nikolas : latex , some fruits . elizabeth : does britt have the same allergy ? nikolas : no . why ? elizabeth : well , because some allergies are inherited , and if it did n't come from britt , then maybe it came from ben 's father , whoever that may be . dante : no , look , unfortunately our guy 's 6 feet . uh , thanks . thanks anyways . lulu : was that about carly ? dante : uh , thanks . no , franco . false alarm . lulu : dante falconeri , did you eat strawberry jam for breakfast ? dante : no , ma'am . i used the wrong gloves when i was handling some evidence . lulu : the cream 's not working ? dante : no , it 's working fine . i just have n't had time to get it refilled . lulu : weird thing about this allergy of yours ... lucas : i could meet you at the floating rib . it 'd be just like old times . brad : [ chuckles ] old times ? i 've seen you once . lucas : and you 're still thinking about it . so are we on ? brad : i 'm gon na be with felix . i 'm sorry . lucas : i see . brad : look , i 've -- i 've got to go . i hope everything works out with your sister . i really do . take care . lucas : [ sighs ] lulu : latex , fruits . dante : all right , settle down . it 's humiliating enough without you laughing about it , making it worse . lulu : i was just gon na say that you are now not the only person i know with that allergy . lucas : dante , i 'm sorry , man . i did n't mean to go off on you like that . dante : do n't worry about it . we 're all feeling it a little bit , right ? lucas : so any news ? lulu : lots of calls . nothing solid . you know , i am going to go over to g.h . and get this prescription filled for you . dante : you do n't have to do that . i can do it . i just -- lucas : no , no , no . lulu , you stay here . i 'll do whatever it is . at least i 'll feel useful . lulu : are you sure ? lucas : absolutely . yeah , it 's no problem at all . patrick : i do n't know how i feel . i 've been lied to so many times this past year that i do n't even trust my own instincts . robin : okay , well , you ... you asked me to have another child , and i said no . patrick : you said not yet . which i understand , robin . i get that . you just got home . emma needs you . i need you . it 's too soon . robin : yeah , but that does n't change the fact that you want another child and -- and now you 're having one with someone else . patrick : i 'm sorry . i just ... wanted five minutes where we could just get back to normal , and ... were you looking at this ? victor : and you are ? heather : an employee of mr. cassadine . household staff . victor : really ? then you can show me in . heather : afraid not . i 'm below - stairs , if you know what i mean . and mr. cassadine is very strict . it 's the servants entrance for me . you 'll have to show yourself in . ta - ta . victor : what a strange woman . franco : you have n't seen me here before because i 'm the new grave digger . uh , name 's yorick . fair enough . mrs. mcclain : i was wondering , uh , why are you using your hands instead of a shovel ? franco : well , i 'm -- i 'm -- you know , first day , so i just , uh ... i believe in learning from the ground up . get it ? ground up ? 'cause the ... shovels tomorrow . tomorrow , shovels 101 . mrs. mcclain : what did you do before this ? franco : ice - road trucker . mrs. mcclain : and somehow your hands have no calluses . franco : i wear gloves 'cause it 's cold out there on the icy road . mrs. mcclain : yeah . i 'm getting cold . i think i better go . franco : okay . do n't let me keep you . britt : you are not moving in here . forget about it . dr. obrecht : such a stingy girl . there 's plenty of room for both of us . britt : there 's not enough room for both of us in this town , let alone in this house . it 's bad enough i have to see you at the hospital every day . dr. obrecht : i do n't appreciate this new attitude , britta . if you ca n't do me this favor , perhaps i 'll take my case directly to nikolas . maybe he 'll be generous with me if i let slip that my ungrateful daughter has his sister 's son . carly : come on . come on . come on . oh ! [ panting ] okay , carly . okay . you can cry later . you got to get out of here . all right . heather : yoo - hoo ! i 'm back ! did you miss me ? were you a good girl while i was gone ? felix : i 'll come home with you , and we can tell carlos together . sabrina : no , no , no . you 've got plans . felix : no , brad will understand why i have to cancel . my best friend is about to tell her latin lover the baby she said was his is n't . i would n't miss that for the world . sabrina : [ chuckles ] felix : oh , she 's smiling . sabrina : i do n't know what i would do without you , fee . brad : lucas . lucas : hey . brad : what are you doing here ? lucas : i 'm not a stalker . i 'm just here to fill a prescription for my cousin . brad : i hope that means they found your sister . lucas : [ sighs ] i wish . but no . i 'm just , uh , trying to be useful . brad : ah . lucas : oh , so how was mr. first date ? brad : it was good . lucas : i hope you changed the sheets . brad : ha ha . it was n't that kind of date . we did n't even kiss . lucas : oh , i figured you rounded that base early . brad : when it comes to felix , i used to be a little ... pushy . lucas : and that was a problem ? brad : let 's just say i was edging on a felony one . so now i 've got to do a little ... lucas : penance . brad : i 've got to build a little trust . lucas : well , if you ever get tired of life in the slow lane ... you know where to find me . elizabeth : if britt went through the proper channels , she would have a detailed medical history of ben 's father . she could anticipate problems like this . nikolas : well , she did n't , so she wo n't . elizabeth : yes , but she should . she could just work backwards . nikolas : elizabeth , will you please just drop it ? i do n't want to fight with you about this , and i certainly do n't want to lose our friendship . but it 's britt 's child . it 's her decision . elizabeth : well , i do n't want to lose our friendship over this , either . nikolas : fine . then find a way to get along with her , please . because she 's part of my life now . elizabeth : i still do n't trust her . i just do n't want to see you get hurt . lulu : you are gon na make that worse . dante : oh , i know . so , you were saying before your cousin came back you know someone else that has the same allergy ? lulu : ben westbourne . dante : britt 's baby boy ? lulu : yeah , i was out visiting nikolas . i was watching the baby , and ben had a rash exactly like you get . nikolas says ben has the same allergy . is n't that funny ? britt : you 're not gon na tell nikolas anything . you ca n't . you 're as guilty as i am . dr. obrecht : [ scoffs ] britta , you disappoint me . did you honestly think mutter has n't thought of that ? believe me , if the truth ever comes out , you will pay , not me . i had nothing to do with it . in fact ... i was n't even here . relax . all you have to do is convince your prince to invite your mother to stay here . britt : he wo n't allow it . dr. obrecht : nonsense . just bat those pretty eyelashes you inherited from mutter . he 'll do anything for you . britt : can i help you ? victor : pardon the interruption , ladies . i did knock , but it seems the butler 's otherwise engaged . i 'm victor cassadine , nikolas ' great - uncle . britt : oh , i 'm -- i 'm so sorry . nikolas did n't mention a visitor . victor : yes , well , he did n't know i was coming . it 's a bit of a surprise . and you are ? britt : i 'm britt westbourne . hi . this is my mother . [ sighs ] victor : dr. liesl obrecht . britt : you two know each other ? victor : [ chuckles ] robin : you promised emma a story . patrick : yeah , i will in a second . i mean , were you -- were you looking at this ? victor : you tell anybody about this project ... and you will fail the opportunity to save your friend . robin : i just -- you know , we never got a chance to say goodbye . patrick : i 'm sorry . i know how much he meant to you . robin : yeah . jason will always be in my prayers . patrick : go put her to bed . robin : how much you still mean to me . heather : ta - da ! this is the same kind of knife the police have with your blood and franco 's fingerprints on it . so when they examine your wounds , it 'll all match up . it 's a genius plan . i just have to execute it . nice knowing you , carly . not . carly : feeling 's mutual , bitch . heather : [ gasps ] carly : [ grunts ] felix : again , no updates . what am i supposed to do , call the pcpd myself ? elizabeth : do n't let obrecht catch you checking your phone . you 'll be on bed pans for a year . felix : obrecht can kiss my foot . elizabeth : hey , hey , hey . you 've already been caught once dissing her . you want that to happen again ? felix : i 'm supposed to go help sabrina through a crisis , and before i do that , i want to make sure that carly 's at least closer to being found . elizabeth : okay , i 'm sorry . i forgot that you are friends with carly . felix : we are , and carly 's been missing for weeks . every time the press posts a new update , it 's more bad news , and now suddenly no updates at all . elizabeth : well , do n't jump to the worst case . felix : excuse me . the woman was dating franco , and now she 's vanished . how much worst - case can you get ? elizabeth : carly is resilient , and she 's resourceful , and there are a lot of people looking for her . felix : yeah , and the police appear to have mad zero progress . elizabeth : other than the police , i 'm sure sonny has all of his , you know , guys searching for her . felix : i would search for her myself if i knew it 'd do any good . i mean , i can hold sabrina 's hand and offer moral support through what she 's going through , but what can i do for carly ? elizabeth : you can have a little faith . like i said , the woman is resilient . felix : i know . but this is different . this is franco . victor : how could i not know dr. obrecht ? she and her cohort jerry jacks are rather infamous . and they also did commandeer my family 's island as a base for their exploits . dr. obrecht : you were n't using it . britt : um ... [ clears throat ] um , nikolas will be home any minute . can i offer you something to drink ? dr. obrecht : i 'm sure mr. cassadine has somewhere else to be . victor : tea , thanks . britt : mother ? dr. obrecht : i 'm not thirsty . victor : dear liesl . are you trying to get rid of me ? dr. obrecht : [ scoffs ] [ door opens ] britt : oh , i 'm so glad you 're home . nikolas : why ? everything okay ? is ben all right ? britt : yeah , ben 's fine . it -- my mother 's in there with your great - uncle victor . victor : i must say , you 're still as captivating as ever . dr. obrecht : i thought we agreed to go our separate ways , victor . i gave you information on your family and jason morgan , and you arranged for my freedom . if you need something -- victor : the only thing i need , liesl ... is you . lucas : you know what ? forget i said that . i 'm just dealing with a lot at the moment , and obviously my internal editor is failing . brad : lucas , do n't misunderstand . i - i think you 're great . i - i do . i mean , you 're sexy and nice and interesting and open , and if things were different -- lucas : hey , hey , look , i was just playing . far be it from me to get in the way of the next great gay romance . i 'll see you around . felix : brad . brad : ready to go ? felix : i 'm sorry . i ca n't . sabrina 's in a really bad way . i 'm gon na help her out tonight . brad : of course . if , uh , she needs you -- felix : i mean , i 'm really sorry . i was really looking forward to it . but we 'll do it again soon , okay ? brad : yeah . lucas : [ sighs ] elizabeth : i heard you were in town . lucas : yeah , i just wish the circumstances were better . elizabeth : any word on carly ? lucas : no . unless you count franco giving the cops the slip . elizabeth : franco escaped ? lucas : he 's in the wind , as they say . elizabeth : oh , lord . i 'm sorry . i know this is really scary and frustrating , but you can trust anna and dante . lucas : what choice do i have ? oh , uh , in the meantime , i am trying to help out where i can , and i need to get this refilled for dante . elizabeth : can i see that ? lucas : yeah . dante : what are the odds that me and ben westbourne have the same allergy ? mrs. mcclain : detective ? dante : yes , ma'am . mrs. mcclain : i 'm carol mcclain . the desk sergeant told me to speak to you . dante : yes , ms . mcclain , how can i help you ? mrs. mcclain : uh , i think i can help you . i suppose you 're still looking for this man . dante : we are . you have information ? mrs. mcclain : i 've just seen him . dante : when ? mrs. mcclain : a few minutes ago . dante : where ? franco : oh , mother . if you 've hurt carly , so help me , heather , i will kill you all over again .

taylor : sweetheart , you 've been up all night . you 've been pacing the floors . i 'm worried about you . nick : forrester did this . he killed mcgrath . i 'm more certain now than ever . taylor : nick . nick : you do n't want to believe this . i know he was your ex , the father of your children . it 's tough for you . it 's all starting to make sense , though . taylor : because shane was last seen in ridge 's office ? nick : the kid was angry , he was desperate . my guess is he was waiting for the dressmaker in those offices . something happened , and this kid wound up taking a bullet . now , forrester had plans with ashley abbott . he did n't call to cancel , and that 's not like him . i think it 's because he was out in the bay dumping that body . taylor : did you say all of this to ridge last night ? nick : if you would have seen the look in his eyes , you 'd know i 'm right . i 'm going to prove this . and i think i know how . [ scene_break ] ridge : i 'm telling you , mother , nick 's onto me . he knows that shane mcgrath was at our office . stephanie : who told him that ? ridge : phoebe . he ambushed her with a bunch of questions , and it came out . stephanie : he 's spoken to ashley , as well . ridge : yeah , i know , i know . he thinks he 's figured a lot of this out . now , he 's involved ashley . stephanie : well , i 'm not so worried about her . i think i 've convinced her that nick is just a desperate man . what i 'm worried about is you . you need an air- tight alibi . ridge : look , i do n't care how convincing you think you 've been , ashley is suspicious . stephanie : you may be right . this could get out of hand . i 've been thinking that the best thing would be for you to leave town . today .

<s>[INST] taylor : sweetheart , you 've been up all night . you 've been pacing the floors . i 'm worried about you . nick : forrester did this . he killed mcgrath . i 'm more certain now than ever . taylor : nick . nick : you do n't want to believe this . i know he was your ex , the father of your children . it 's tough for you . it 's all starting to make sense , though . taylor : because shane was last seen in ridge 's office ? nick : the kid was angry , he was desperate . my guess is he was waiting for the dressmaker in those offices . something happened , and this kid wound up taking a bullet . now , forrester had plans with ashley abbott . he did n't call to cancel , and that 's not like him . i think it 's because he was out in the bay dumping that body . taylor : did you say all of this to ridge last night ? nick : if you would have seen the look in his eyes , you 'd know i 'm right . i 'm going to prove this . and i think i know how . [ scene_break ] ridge : i 'm telling you , mother , nick 's onto me . he knows that shane mcgrath was at our office . stephanie : who told him that ? ridge : phoebe . he ambushed her with a bunch of questions , and it came out . stephanie : he 's spoken to ashley , as well . ridge : yeah , i know , i know . he thinks he 's figured a lot of this out . now , he 's involved ashley . stephanie : well , i 'm not so worried about her . i think i 've convinced her that nick is just a desperate man . what i 'm worried about is you . you need an air- tight alibi . ridge : look , i do n't care how convincing you think you 've been , ashley is suspicious . stephanie : you may be right . this could get out of hand . i 've been thinking that the best thing would be for you to leave town . today . [ scene_break ] rick : so , nick thinks that ridge killed shane and is framing him for it ? phoebe : it 's crazy . i mean , but nick 's convinced that shane was last seen at forrester originals . i do n't know . i do n't want to talk about it anymore . my dad would never do something like that . i mean , yeah , he has a temper , but -- rick : yes , yes , he does , which i have been on the receiving end a few times . but even i do n't think your father would go that far . although -- phoebe : what ? rick : i 'm just reminded of this whole grant chambers incident . phoebe : grant who ? felicia : come on , you crazy kids . ' fess up . whose idea was it to put that video on the internet without telling me first ? the phone 's been ringing off the hook , and i do n't mean it in a good way . phoebe : what video ? rick : i do n't know what you 're talking about . c.j . : i think i can answer the question that you have . follow me . phoebe : that 's the picture of us singing the other night . madison : yeah , we uploaded the video . there have been like , thousands of hits already . c.j . : pretty great , huh ? rick : guess again . constantine : oh , i 'd hate to be in that dude 's shoes . oh , 5,000 hits ? it has n't even been up 12 hours . [ scene_break ] nick : i am gon na force baker to reopen this investigation . taylor : but you do n't have any hard evidence . nick : why were n't these cops all over forrester ? i 'll tell you why , because mommie dearest led him every step of the way . taylor : you 're really convinced that he and stephanie are in on this together ? nick : when forrester did n't show up for his little date with ashley abbott , she called stephanie . she made some excuse that ridge had some sort of business emergency . so she waited around and went by his office later , and who was there ? stephanie . she now said that he was a business call to sydney . well , i bet if lieutenant baker checks the phone records , i will bet my crown jewels there is no record of a phone call to sydney . taylor : you know what ? she did act very interested to find out what kind of leads you had to clear your name . nick : that 's because she 's up to her designer label in a cover - up . listen , i know that you 're struggling with this . and it might have well been an accident . you know , if you 're pregnant , i 'd really like to be around to raise this child . taylor : i know you did n't do this , but i want you to let me talk to ridge . i need to look in his eyes , and i 'll know if he 's holding anything back . i 'll know that . [ scene_break ] ridge : do you think it 's going to raise more questions if i leave now ? stephanie : not if it 's a business trip . we 're opening the paris boutique . i think it 's perfectly natural if one of the family were to oversee things . ridge : i could take the company jet . stephanie : i think we should move quickly . ridge : nick 's going to smell a rat . stephanie : i 'll handle him . it 's going to be a little more difficult now , but -- ridge : because he 's involved ashley . stephanie : no , taylor . i 'm sure he 's told her about confronting you . if taylor sees you , she 'll know that something is going on , honey . who knows you or reads you better than taylor ? [ scene_break ] c.j . : what 's the problem , bro ? rick : c.j . , look at the insomnia sign . c.j . : what about it ? felicia : pretty prominent , bro , would n't you say ? c.j . : well , now that you mention it . rick : oh , please , c.j . , you know this is just free publicity for your coffee . c.j . : rick , buddy , come on . like i would use my best friend and his girl to promote my coffee ? okay , i 'm busted . look , i saw an opportunity , and i jumped on it . what 's the big deal ? so i get a little free p.r . for the place . you and phoebe are stars , man ! rick : the big deal is ridge still disapproves of my relationship with phoebe , and we 're trying to keep things quiet . felicia : little too late for that . there 's no telling who 's watching that video , even as we speak .

[ sighs ] how can i not be stressed out given what 's going on with jack ? you know , if there 's only one silver lining to this whole thing , it 's that he does n't know what 's happening to our company . 'cause if he did , it would break his heart . let 's go . phyllis : jack ? did you just ... baby , can you hear me ? jack , do it again . if you can hear me , squeeze my hand again . noah : summer , you can not keep blaming yourself because austin was dishonest . if someone is determined to keep the truth from you , that is on them . and as hard as it is , you got to stop dwelling on the past , okay ? there 's no way you could have known on your wedding day how things were gon na turn out . i never thought that i 'd be burying my fiancée or that we 'd be trying to track down the person who killed them both . summer : i still ca n't believe that they have n't found the guy . noah : you know , kevin has some insane theory that jack 's shooting was connected . summer : connected with austin and courtney ? that 's crazy . you know , sometimes i worry about kevin . noah : what if there 's something to it , though ? summer : what ? a connection ? okay , grandpa just got arrested for shooting jack . and who knows what happened there . but grandpa would never kill the people that we love , so what connection could there possibly be ? phyllis : he heard what i said , and he answered me . the patient was conscious ? phyllis : his eyes were n't open , but he squeezed my hand . coma patients sometimes move involuntarily , even blink their eyes , but that 's not the same as cognition . phyllis : you do n't need to tell me what coma patients do , dr . singh . i know what a reflex is . my husband was responding . he was trying to communicate . i asked him to squeeze my hand , and he did . okay , jack , let 's show the doctor , okay , honey ? mr. abbott , if you can hear me , squeeze my hand . phyllis : come on , baby . you can do this . please . kyle : how could you betray my dad like that ? abby : betray him ? kyle , what did i do that was so heinous ? kyle : gabe has taken advantage of a tragedy , okay ? he 's helped himself to victor 's chair , and now that you 've taken the bait , you 're basically benefiting from jack 's being down . chelsea : okay , kyle , you are looking at this in the worst possible light . kyle : am i ? and what other light is there ? chelsea : we are all on the same team here . we all want the company to succeed , including gabe . he is jack 's son , after all . kyle : right . i 'm really not surprised that you 're backing him up . after all , you are sleeping with the guy . chelsea : excuse me ? kyle : you know , it 's actually really nice for you how this has all worked out , is n't it ? you screwed over billy , and yet you still ended up with an abbott . it 's like magic , except , of course , he does n't deserve the name . abby : shut up , kyle . you 're way out of line . kyle : me ? i 'm out of line ? are you -- you 're the one printing out business cards with a job title that , let 's be honest , neither of our fathers would ever have given you . now , how is that serving anyone else 's best interests except your own , abby ?

kyle : because he 's not gone ! he 's still alive ! he 's still breathing ! you know , when he wakes up , you 're gon na regret ever having sided with that lying bastard gabe . nick : i did n't come back to work at my family 's company so i could be a buffer for you and vick . adam : hmm . sort of limits your options , though , does n't it , because abby does n't need a mentor and we 're not hiring any bouncers at the moment . nick : well , i 'll do neil 's old job , and you can keep sitting in that chair until dad beats the charges and takes it back . adam : you keep assuming there 's a place here for you . it 's adorable . nick : abby hired me , and you were okay with it . so stop trying to bait me . look , i came back to make this company work , and you would be wise to work with me , not against me . billy : look , neither of us wants that colossal jerk running the company , but i thought we were gon na bring him down as a team . victoria : i was gon na share whatever information i learned with you . billy : great , so what have you learned ? victoria : well , it turns out he 's a colossal jerk . billy : [ chuckles ] victoria : but i have an idea . i have a good way to soften him up so that he 'll let his guard down , and nick 's on board . billy : nick ? victoria : yeah . nick 's back . he just strolled in a little while ago and announced it . billy : hmm . that 's new . he has n't wanted anything to do with the company in years . victoria : yeah , yeah , yeah . that was then . billy : yeah , and this is war . so what 's the plan ? victoria : nick and i think that the quickest way to make gabe lose focus is to prove how dysfunctional we all are . billy : well , that 's not bad . ashley : okay , so you got me here to take the mri . you do n't have to actually stay here while i take it . stitch : i 'm gon na stay until i 'm sure you 're all right . ashley : okay . suit yourself . stitch : besides , it 'll , uh , it 'll give me a chance to talk to the chief of staff about my future . ashley : what do you mean ? stitch : i heard back from the state medical licensing board . they ruled in my favor . ashley : that 's wonderful ! stitch : i know . i know . i 'm pretty pumped . ashley : yay ! stitch : yeah , i 'm hoping that , you know , now that my name is cleared , they 'll reinstate me in the residency program . ashley : what about the lab ? stitch : well , you know , since my work on hex is done and given the situation at the company these days -- ashley : wait , you do n't mean -- you do n't mean me and abby ? please . stitch : i mean the situation between the two families . ashley : okay . stitch : it 's a tense place to work these days . ashley : yeah , i know . stitch : you know ? besides , you -- you got to know all i 've ever wanted is to be a doctor . ashley : i do know that . i 'm really happy for you . we 're gon na miss , you know ... abby 's gon na miss having you around the lab . that 's for sure . that 's great . victoria : oh , you 're still here . nick : deal with it . victoria : i assume you 're trying to ingratiate yourself . nick : well , i do n't have to . gabe and i go way back , remember ? adam : are we friends now again , nick ? i 'm having trouble keeping track of this . victoria : badmouthing me the whole time , i 'm sure . nick : paranoid much ? billy : well , the timing is kind of convenient , deciding you 're a newman after all . nick : do n't you have a poker game to get to ? adam : okay , tell you what . you kiddies play nice in the sandbox . i 'm gon na go see how jack 's doing . billy : speaking of newfound family loyalty . victoria : i filled billy in on the plan for us to act like we ca n't stand each other . very good job , by the way . i assume that gabriel thinks that we 're not gon na work together smoothly , so we keep that up . we pour on the infighting , and then he 'll think that he can divide and conquer . billy : only we make sure that it comes back to bite him . could n't have happened to a nicer guy . nick : it 's gon na be a challenge , convincing everyone that we 're on his side . victoria : well , we have to get abby to side with him on some issues and make him feel like he has an ally . nick : you think it 's wise to bring her in on this ? billy : yeah , why would n't it be ? nick : well , from what i could tell , abby seems really fired up she got this job . if we tell her what we 're up to , she may think we 're trying to undercut her authority . victoria : so then we do n't tell her . [ door opens ] abby : what 's this ? having a closed - door meeting without your new coo . ? summer : i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to bring you down . i know we 're both still working through all of this . noah : you gon na be okay ? summer : yeah , someday , i hope . noah : come here . i love you . summer : i love you . noah : it 's gon na be okay . summer : okay . thanks . marisa : i , uh , could n't help overhearing . your sister 's husband died ? noah : yeah , murdered by the same person who , uh , took courtney 's life . marisa : here in genoa city ? noah : does n't seem right . i know . marisa : [ sighs ] a serial killer ? noah : yeah . except for that the killings were n't random . [ sighs ] summer 's husband , he wanted to be a filmmaker and he was working on this project , and he found some secret that the killer did n't want exposed , and , uh , we think that courtney found out what that was during her investigation ... 'cause she wound up dead , too . marisa : when did all of this happen ? noah : austin was killed on valentine 's day , and courtney was killed on what was supposed to be our wedding day . marisa : then the killer 's -- the killer 's still out there . noah : there 's been various suspects , yeah . my mom , for one . the police arrested her , and then they decided to let her go once they agreed that she was being set up . and then there was this , um , this disgruntled employee from jabot who died , and they found a bunch of evidence in his motel room . marisa : evidence ? noah : to make it look like he was the killer . but then they finally discovered that the real killer had planted it to set him up . marisa : and this , um , this secret your fiancée discovered , what was it ? noah : no one knows . she died before she had a chance to tell anybody . but it 's big enough that someone 's willing to kill to keep it from getting out . phyllis : unresponsive ? no . i know what i felt . he heard me . doctor , look , i 'm not imagining these things , all right ? maybe later after a little bit of rest ... continue to talk to him and encourage him . phyllis : i have no intention of stopping . thank you . [ door opens ] [ door closes ] phyllis : damn it . i was so sure you were coming out of this . thought you were fighting your way back to me . jack : [ thinking ] you thought right . phyllis : there . you did it again . you squeezed my hand again . i need to get dr . singh in here . i felt it . you did it again . all right . i need to be sure this time . jack , um , if you can hear me , i 'm gon na have to ask you a - a few questions , all right ? squeeze my hand once for yes and twice for no . do you understand ? [ gasps ] that 's a yes . okay . okay . are you in pain ? [ sighs ] two squeezes . no . that 's very good . that 's very good , sweetie . did you hear the doctor when he was talking to you earlier ? yes ? then why -- why did n't you react ? i 'm sorry . that 's not a yes or no question . um ... is it because you want me to only know ? jack : [ thinking ] you 're the only one i can trust . phyllis : you do n't trust anyone else . i get it . all right . you want me to know about the shooting , do n't you ? nikki said that you called her to meet you in the park that night . is that true ? no ? did you take a gun with you ? adam : what are you doing ? [ knock on door ] kyle : i can not believe how selfish everyone is being today . including me . what 's wrong ? summer : nothing . i 'm fine . kyle : summer , i can see you 're upset . one year ago today . summer : it 's my wedding day . kyle : if you 'd rather be alone ... summer : no , no , i 'm ... glad that you 're here . this photo brings back a lot of memories . kyle : the abbotts and the newmans came together for you that day . summer : [ sighs ] yeah , but now they 're fighting again . your dad 's in the hospital . my grandpa 's in jail . just the whole thing is a mess . kyle : yeah , that 's -- that 's why i was upset when i walked in here . i 'm sorry . i just -- i gave abby a ton of grief . summer : how come ? kyle : for being disloyal . bingham gave her this huge promotion , totally undeserved , and now she is team gabe all the way . summer : sounds like you think that was part of his plan . kyle : it 's absolutely part of his plan . i told abby that she was being more newman than abbott , like that 's the worst insult you could ever give anybody . summer : yeah , but , kyle , we -- we 've talked about this . our last names do n't matter . kyle : i know . that 's not who we are . i have to keep reminding myself what you said . you know , when we were pretending to be mcgillicuddy and smith . summer : yeah , but it was all just make - believe in the end . i 've lied to myself before . i saw only what i wanted to see in austin , and ... maybe i 'm just doing the same thing with you . i do n't know . kyle : wait , summer , i 'm not cheating on you or -- summer : no , i 'm not really that a woman is gon na come in between us . i 'm worried that our family will , no matter how hard we try to fight it . billy : we were just discussing gabe , about the only topic we can all agree on . abby : where is he ? i have news for him . victoria : i do n't know . look for a big rock . maybe he slithered under it . chelsea : i know you 're not happy about your big demotion , victoria , but you should be proud of your sister . abby got the transport company to sign a new deal and reduce their rates . abby : since the merger , we have a lot more product to ship , so i told the rep that we 'd like a significant discount since we 're doing more business together . i saved newman - abbott 3 % across the board . victoria : wow . a whole 3 % . are you serious ? that 's all ? nick : abby , um , oil 's at record lows , and diesel 's pretty cheap . if you 'd known what you were doing , you probably could have got that up to at least 5 % . victoria : if not more . billy : yeah , abs , you really ought to do your homework before you negotiate a deal like that . victoria : maybe she did n't have to . how did you persuade him ? did you use your womanly charms ? a smile ? a wink ? abby : you know what ? for your information , victoria , i used my brains to close the deal , and i do n't appreciate the insinuation . chelsea : abby handled the meeting like a pro . she took advantage of an opportunity . victoria : just like gabe . well , maybe he did hire the right person for coo . after all . someone who would stoop as low as he would . noah : [ sighs ] marisa : so , there have been no other leads ? noah : just a bunch of dead ends . i mean , there was some hope a few weeks ago . there was this envelope that , uh , the killer had sent a friend of ours . marisa : did you take it to the police ? noah : yeah , yeah , we got a dna match . and it turned out to be this drug kingpin from south america . but then the fbi , they ran their own test , and suddenly that saliva matched that disgruntled employee that i told you about . so another false lead . but i 'll tell you what . the whole thing 's a little fishy . marisa : and you really thought the dna belonged to a crime lord ? noah : at first , yeah . it 's this guy that 's been on the fbi 's most - wanted list for years . very few people have ever seen him in person . marisa : what 's his name ? noah : marco annicelli . what 's that look ? what -- do you know him ? marisa : yes . phyllis : i was talking to jack , hoping he could hear me . i thought if i asked him some questions , it might make him react . but it never does . adam : you mind , uh , you mind very much if i had a few minutes alone with him ? phyllis : i - i do n't know if that 's a real good idea . adam : hmm . phyllis : but if that 's what jack wants ... adam : of course it is . yeah , phyllis . i understand that , uh , that you 're protective of him . you should be . it 's good . but , uh , there are other people who care about him , too , all right ? i 'm one of them . phyllis : yeah . that 's fine . i 'll be right outside . adam : okay . thank you . [ door closes ] adam : i wonder if she 's right . i wonder if you can hear us . [ sighs ] i wonder if you remember what happened that night , especially after you were shot . jack : [ thinking ] you better believe i do . adam : jack , when i showed up , i , um ... i saw victor there . he was standing over you . you -- you were laying on the ground . he had a gun in his hand . you were unconscious . jack : [ thinking ] shot , but not unconscious . i heard , adam . i heard you make a deal with victor . adam : jack , i did n't know what to do , okay ? victor left , and i thought you were dead , and , um ... i did n't know what to do . and as soon as i realized your heart was still beating , that you were still alive , i called the police . i called 911 . that 's what i did . jack : [ thinking ] that 's not the whole story , adam . i know the rest . i know marco showed up . you two were planning to fake his death and send victor to prison for it . it makes me wonder what else you were up to . were you in on the plot to bring marco here , to replace me so the company could be all yours ? and then what ? you turn on victor and grab the whole empire for yourself ? you can spin whatever story you like ? i know damn well you 're not innocent in all of this . i know who you are . victor 's son , not mine . is this how you repay me for keeping your secret ? by nearly getting me killed ? adam : just get better , okay ? you get better and we 're gon na figure this whole thing out together , all right ? i promise . noah : you know this guy , this criminal ? you know marco ? marisa : no , i - i meant that i know the name . that 's all . noah : why would you know the name of a south american drug lord ? marisa : the boyfriend i mentioned to you , he traveled in the same circles as marco annicelli . noah : your boyfriend ? your boyfriend worked for a drug cartel ? how closely did he work with this guy ? huh ? marisa : not all that close . noah : close enough that he could find out where he is ? marisa , look , i felt like the -- the cops , there was -- there was more to this than the cops were willing to admit . you got to do me a favor . you got to call your boyfriend . you got to call him up . come on ! this is important ! call him ! marisa : i ca n't . noah : what ? ! what do you mean , you ca n't ? why not ? ! marisa : my boyfriend , he 's gone . stitch : that was n't so bad , now was it ? ashley : no , it was n't . i 'm not worried about me right now , though , anyway . i 'm worried about jack right now . phyllis : you 're not the only one . ashley : hey , wait a minute . who let gabe in there ? phyllis : i did . and i think it 's what jack would really want . ashley : if jack knew what gabe was doing to our company , he would n't want anything to do with him . i do n't care what that dna test says . adam : excuse me . ashley : you mean you left abby in control of the company alone already ? phyllis : abby ? ashley : well , yeah . she 's our new chief operating officer . did n't he tell you ? apparently gabe thinks she 's more qualified for the position than me or victoria . phyllis : she has zero experience in operations . why would you do something like that ? adam : phyllis , i 'm not gon na defend my actions to you , okay ? or to anyone . i 've got faith in your daughter , even if her own mother does n't . ashley : having faith in my daughter had nothing to do with your decision , and you know it . i do n't give a damn if you 're an abbott or not . you 're a smug , manipulative weasel . adam : okay . ashley : and look at you . you think you 're such a big shot 'cause you won a corporate war ? you have no idea what you 've stepped into , gabe . because this battle has just begun . stitch : all right , ash , it 's not worth it . let 's -- adam : no , i - i agree . it 's not worth it . um , but here 's some advice for you since we 're all handing out free advice . uh , do n't fight battles you ca n't -- she ignores the boss , she wonders why she does n't get the promotion . phyllis : gabe . adam : unbelievable . phyllis : okay . adam : what ? phyllis : how was the chat with my husband you just had ? adam : you know what , phyllis ? just like you , i think i told him what i thought he needed to hear . billy : come on , vick . do n't be so hard on abby . we all know she 's in way over her head . abby : you , too , billy ? billy : well , abby , you are . i mean , the most responsibility you had at jabot was naming shades of lipstick . chelsea : wow , that is so insulting , billy . victoria : what he 's saying is the truth . billy : all i 'm saying is that when victoria was your age , she was a division head , and your business training has involved what ? dancing around naked to amuse the internet ? abby : what is wrong with you two ? first kyle is a total jerk to me , and now you two ? and you questioning my business ethics ? you , little miss lies - a - lot ? well , we all know why -- because you 're jealous . i stepped into your job , and i did n't screw it up . in fact , i succeeded , and you ca n't handle it . victoria : jealous ? of you ? [ scoffs ] what a joke . billy : really , abby , get over yourself . chelsea : oh , my gosh . let 's all just take a deep breath here and focus on what 's really important -- keeping the company strong while jack 's in the hospital . billy : i 'm just saying what everyone else is thinking . abby , sorry , but you 're a lightweight . you do n't belong in the boardroom . nick : okay , lay off abby . abby : thank you . someone has my back besides chelsea . and as for you two , i 'll have the last laugh . victoria : storming out just proves my point . she 's not cut out for a senior position . billy : i 'm with you on that . nick : all right , that 's enough . it 's gone far enough . kyle : here . summer : thanks . kyle : are you sure you 're okay ? or are you just down on relationships in general today ? summer : maybe . i - i do n't know . kyle : summer , you do know that not everyone who 's together goes through this , right ? summer : it seems like it . just name one couple that you know that is both happy and faithful . kyle : no , 'cause i do n't care about other couples , okay ? i only care about us -- you and me , all right ? and what we have is -- is stronger than our families , okay ? they wo n't come between us . i promise . summer : yeah , you say that now , kyle . kyle : all right , i mean , if -- if you feel like this is hopeless and that we ca n't get past these obstacles and that i ca n't be true to you , i guess we should , um , just break up now . summer : n - no , no , no , no . that 's not -- that 's not what i want . kyle : it 's not ? summer : no ! kyle : good . because i sure as hell do n't want that , either . summer : okay . kyle : [ laughs ] look , do you think that , i do n't know , maybe you can try to trust that we can beat the odds with this ? summer : [ sighs ] i hope so . kyle : but ? summer : but i do n't know . i ca n't help but wonder if you were forced to choose between me or your family , who would you choose ? billy : so , what ? we 're not entitled to our opinions now ? nick : i just think we need to give abby a chance to prove herself . victoria : how much of a chance ? long enough for her to run the company into the ground with her ineptitude ? nick : i know what you 're trying to do . you 're gon na wait to see abby fail so you can swoop in and get your old job back . billy : what gives you the right to weigh in ? you do n't even work here . nick : abby hired me . gabe signed off on it . i have as much right to be here as you do . adam : what the hell 's going on ? chelsea : is n't it obvious ? everyone 's at each other 's throats . you should have seen the way they treated abby just now after she closed the deal with rittinsky and got a rate reduction . adam : really ? how much ? chelsea : 3 % . adam : 3 % ? that 's outstanding . considering the volume of shipping they do for us , it 's gon na save us a lot of money . good job , abby . where is abby ? chelsea : well , these three were so rude and disrespectful that she left . billy : that 's not true . i just said that she needs to stick to what she knows , which is makeup and perfume . nick : and leave the hard stuff like operations to us men . adam : okay , you guys , you 're all acting like children . and for the record , none of you are getting away with this . stitch : hey , there . abby : hi . um , i - i need to see you . i 'm at the underground . stitch : yeah , so am i . abby : hey ! [ laughs ] how did you know i was gon na be here ? you could n't have . ashley : no , actually , we just came from memorial . ben wanted to make sure i got a follow - up mri . abby : oh , my gosh . are -- are you okay ? what 's going on ? ashley : i 'm fine . he 's just being a good friend . i wish we 'd heard something about his residency , though , while we were there . abby : residency ? ashley : i thought you told her . abby : told me what ? stitch : i got the okay from the state medical licensing board to practice again . abby : oh , my gosh ! ben ! stitch : i know . abby : that 's amazing . you 're gon na be a doctor again . stitch : yeah . abby : that 's huge . stitch : yeah , i 'm pretty excited about it . abby : [ laughs ] stitch : i was gon na try to get hired back at the hospital and then tell you , you know , surprise you with the news . ashley : i 'm sorry . i stepped all over your plans . stitch : do n't worry about it . abby : well , i have a surprise , too . it 's actually why i called you here . um , gabe trusted me with a very important meeting today , and i got the contract signed . stitch : yeah , that 's -- that 's great news , abby . abby : yeah , i 'm pretty proud of myself . so i guess we both have something to celebrate . ashley : i 'm ... proud of you , too . i just ... i do n't want to rain on your parade . just watch your back , okay ? i 'm afraid gabe might be setting you up for something . abby : oh , my god . [ chuckles ] is it not remotely possible that anyone in this family thinks that i can succeed ? ca n't anyone just be happy for me ? noah : i know that your boyfriend is gone . he left you up the street and he drove off . marisa : and i want nothing more to do with him , and now you know why . noah : right . marisa : he 's a dangerous man , and i 'm well rid of him . noah : i understand that you 're glad that he 's gone . he was involved with some very dangerous people . but if your boyfriend knows where to find marco , i need to talk to him . look , marisa , if you 're really that scared , you do n't have to call him , okay ? just tell me his name . just give me his name . i will find him myself . come on . phyllis : did you have a nice visit with gabe ? do you trust him ? no . i did n't think so . i have n't been to the office since the shooting . but according to ashley , gabe 's really causing quite an uproar at newman - abbott . sounding like he 's pushing others out , wanting the company for himself . you agree ? i know that you would stop this if you could . why do n't i make a point of it to stop by the office at least once a day , keep an eye on gabe and report back to you ? no ? really ? why ? you think it 's too dangerous ? okay . do you think gabe is lying about what he saw ? victor did n't shoot you in self - defense , did he ? no . i knew it . damn him . ashley : abby , i do want to celebrate with you . i 'm your biggest fan , honey . abby : [ scoffs ] ashley : i am . but look at what 's happening . your uncle jack 's in the hospital . your father 's in jail . gabe is in control and on top , and that 's where he intends to stay . abby : well , at least he thinks i 'm capable of doing more than rubber - stamping ad copy . ashley : so do i . look what 's happening with him . gabe is sweeping all of us out the door . he wants to be the last abbott standing . abby : so what you 're trying to say is that gabe gave me this big job with a lot of responsibility because he expects me to fail ? stitch : okay , look , that 's not what your mom is saying , abby . i know she 's very proud of you . ashley : i am . and i promise you i will not let my feelings for gabe influence how i feel about your performance . is that fair ? stitch : better ? abby : some . ashley : `` some . `` come here . i love you . abby : i love you . ashley : i 'm proud of you . abby : thank you . ashley : enjoy the rest of your day . got to go . stitch : you , too , ash . abby : well , you were quick to jump to her defense . stitch : okay , i was trying to make peace . and for the record , i am thrilled about your big promotion , okay ? kyle : who would i choose ? summer : yeah . me or your family ? kyle : summer , do you really not get what you mean to me ? how happy you make me ? i love you . you hear that ? summer : i love you , too , kyle . kyle : that should tell you everything you need to know , okay ? marisa : i do n't want to talk about my boyfriend . noah : i just need his name . marisa : no . noah : come on . marisa : noah , believe me . there is nothing he can tell you about those deaths . noah : how do you know that , huh ? how ? marisa : besides , the fbi could n't make a connection to marco . you said the dna belonged to someone else . noah : could have been a cover - up . marisa : i know you want justice for courtney . but you have to let the police solve the crime . if this terrible criminal is involved , then it 's all the more reason you should n't be . adam : this really what you guys want , huh ? jack coming back to his company in shambles ? victoria : you gon na keep us prisoner ? adam : no one 's leaving here until we figure out how to work together . billy : well , gee , would you let us out if we all held hands and sang campfire songs ? chelsea : let 's just hear him out . adam : thank you , chelsea . i appreciate it . the first thing we 're gon na do is we 're gon na draft up a new corporate mission statement , okay ? we 're gon na do that together . i want jack , i want victor , and i want the rest of the world to know that this company will be successful as long as we present a united front . phyllis : i need to be certain about what you 're telling me . are you saying victor deliberately drew his gun and tried to kill you ? i need to tell the police . i 'm gon na call paul . no ? why ? why ? why would you say no ? you have got to wake up , jack . you 've got to wake up . you 're the only one who can handle this . please . jack : [ thinking ] i 'm trying , red . but if i ca n't , you 'll have to do it for me . phyllis : [ sobs ] oh , god .

<s>[INST] chelsea : you did it , abby . you closed the deal with mr. rittinsky . abby : we did it . hooray for us . chelsea : us ? oh , no . oh , no . false modesty does not suit you , abby . you deserve at least 90 % of the credit . abby : well , if you insist . chelsea : i do . i insist . abby : it 's my first signed contract since gabe made me coo . chelsea : thank you . abby : thank you . chelsea : i think this requires a toast . abby : to us and to gabe . chelsea : and to the big rittinsky . abby : [ laughs ] yes . newman - abbott is in good hands . kyle : hey , this looks fun . hey , why do n't you raise a glass to victor while you 're at it ? toast him from getting jack out of the way so we could all rise up through the ranks . abby : kyle , i would never -- kyle : hmm , no , abby , it 's okay . you do n't need to explain . it is very obvious which side of the family 's more important to you . nick : vick and i clashing over business -- it wo n't be the first time , i can tell you that . adam : yeah , i almost do n't mind having you around if you 're gon na be her target instead of me . victoria : [ gasps ] [ sighs ] do n't sneak up on me like that . billy : well , you 're lucky it 's me who caught you and not somebody else . victoria : i was just -- billy : spying . yeah , that 's clear . what 's not clear is why you did n't wait for me . noah : so , uh , at the beginning of each shift , we just try to put the glasses away , check the bar , and -- summer : hey . who 's this ? noah : uh , marisa , this is summer , my sister . and , uh , summer , this is marisa sierras . it 's our newest employee . marisa : nice to meet you , summer . summer : you , too . noah : hey , uh , marisa , would you mind grabbing some more cocktail napkins from the back ? marisa : yeah . noah : thank you . marisa : not a problem . noah : thanks . hey . what 's going on ? summer : [ sighs ] nothing . just wanted to be with a family member who is not obsessed with this whole newman - abbott drama . noah : yeah , i 'm -- i 'm staying out of that , thanks . unfortunately , grandpa has a way of , uh , pulling us back in . summer : yeah . noah : is that why you 're upset ? grandpa got arrested for jack 's shooting ? summer : part of it . today is my first wedding anniversary . noah : right . summer : yeah . noah : i 'm sorry . summer : you know , it was a year ago i was standing next to austin , vowing to spend the rest of my life with him , and today i 'm ... picking up the pieces and he 's gone and ... i - i married a guy that i did n't know completely , and i will never make the same mistake again . phyllis : if you can hear me , you 've got to find a way to show me so we can communicate . jack : [ thinking ] i hear you , red . ashley : hi . stitch : hey . there you are . i was starting to think you were blowing this off . ashley : no , i told you i 'd come in for a follow - up mri . even though i know it 's just gon na confirm what i already know , and that 's that my fatigue and dizziness is due to stress and not the aneurysm . [ sighs ] how can i not be stressed out given what 's going on with jack ? you know , if there 's only one silver lining to this whole thing , it 's that he does n't know what 's happening to our company . 'cause if he did , it would break his heart . let 's go . phyllis : jack ? did you just ... baby , can you hear me ? jack , do it again . if you can hear me , squeeze my hand again . noah : summer , you can not keep blaming yourself because austin was dishonest . if someone is determined to keep the truth from you , that is on them . and as hard as it is , you got to stop dwelling on the past , okay ? there 's no way you could have known on your wedding day how things were gon na turn out . i never thought that i 'd be burying my fiancée or that we 'd be trying to track down the person who killed them both . summer : i still ca n't believe that they have n't found the guy . noah : you know , kevin has some insane theory that jack 's shooting was connected . summer : connected with austin and courtney ? that 's crazy . you know , sometimes i worry about kevin . noah : what if there 's something to it , though ? summer : what ? a connection ? okay , grandpa just got arrested for shooting jack . and who knows what happened there . but grandpa would never kill the people that we love , so what connection could there possibly be ? phyllis : he heard what i said , and he answered me . the patient was conscious ? phyllis : his eyes were n't open , but he squeezed my hand . coma patients sometimes move involuntarily , even blink their eyes , but that 's not the same as cognition . phyllis : you do n't need to tell me what coma patients do , dr . singh . i know what a reflex is . my husband was responding . he was trying to communicate . i asked him to squeeze my hand , and he did . okay , jack , let 's show the doctor , okay , honey ? mr. abbott , if you can hear me , squeeze my hand . phyllis : come on , baby . you can do this . please . kyle : how could you betray my dad like that ? abby : betray him ? kyle , what did i do that was so heinous ? kyle : gabe has taken advantage of a tragedy , okay ? he 's helped himself to victor 's chair , and now that you 've taken the bait , you 're basically benefiting from jack 's being down . chelsea : okay , kyle , you are looking at this in the worst possible light . kyle : am i ? and what other light is there ? chelsea : we are all on the same team here . we all want the company to succeed , including gabe . he is jack 's son , after all . kyle : right . i 'm really not surprised that you 're backing him up . after all , you are sleeping with the guy . chelsea : excuse me ? kyle : you know , it 's actually really nice for you how this has all worked out , is n't it ? you screwed over billy , and yet you still ended up with an abbott . it 's like magic , except , of course , he does n't deserve the name . abby : shut up , kyle . you 're way out of line . kyle : me ? i 'm out of line ? are you -- you 're the one printing out business cards with a job title that , let 's be honest , neither of our fathers would ever have given you . now , how is that serving anyone else 's best interests except your own , abby ? chelsea : would you really prefer victoria be in the position , kyle ? abby : at least i 'm a member of both families . kyle : oh , god . rationalize it however you want . but you 're making a mistake . abby : i 'm stepping up while uncle jack is gone . how is that a mistake ? kyle : because he 's not gone ! he 's still alive ! he 's still breathing ! you know , when he wakes up , you 're gon na regret ever having sided with that lying bastard gabe . nick : i did n't come back to work at my family 's company so i could be a buffer for you and vick . adam : hmm . sort of limits your options , though , does n't it , because abby does n't need a mentor and we 're not hiring any bouncers at the moment . nick : well , i 'll do neil 's old job , and you can keep sitting in that chair until dad beats the charges and takes it back . adam : you keep assuming there 's a place here for you . it 's adorable . nick : abby hired me , and you were okay with it . so stop trying to bait me . look , i came back to make this company work , and you would be wise to work with me , not against me . billy : look , neither of us wants that colossal jerk running the company , but i thought we were gon na bring him down as a team . victoria : i was gon na share whatever information i learned with you . billy : great , so what have you learned ? victoria : well , it turns out he 's a colossal jerk . billy : [ chuckles ] victoria : but i have an idea . i have a good way to soften him up so that he 'll let his guard down , and nick 's on board . billy : nick ? victoria : yeah . nick 's back . he just strolled in a little while ago and announced it . billy : hmm . that 's new . he has n't wanted anything to do with the company in years . victoria : yeah , yeah , yeah . that was then . billy : yeah , and this is war . so what 's the plan ? victoria : nick and i think that the quickest way to make gabe lose focus is to prove how dysfunctional we all are . billy : well , that 's not bad . ashley : okay , so you got me here to take the mri . you do n't have to actually stay here while i take it . stitch : i 'm gon na stay until i 'm sure you 're all right . ashley : okay . suit yourself . stitch : besides , it 'll , uh , it 'll give me a chance to talk to the chief of staff about my future . ashley : what do you mean ? stitch : i heard back from the state medical licensing board . they ruled in my favor . ashley : that 's wonderful ! stitch : i know . i know . i 'm pretty pumped . ashley : yay ! stitch : yeah , i 'm hoping that , you know , now that my name is cleared , they 'll reinstate me in the residency program . ashley : what about the lab ? stitch : well , you know , since my work on hex is done and given the situation at the company these days -- ashley : wait , you do n't mean -- you do n't mean me and abby ? please . stitch : i mean the situation between the two families . ashley : okay . stitch : it 's a tense place to work these days . ashley : yeah , i know . stitch : you know ? besides , you -- you got to know all i 've ever wanted is to be a doctor . ashley : i do know that . i 'm really happy for you . we 're gon na miss , you know ... abby 's gon na miss having you around the lab . that 's for sure . that 's great . victoria : oh , you 're still here . nick : deal with it . victoria : i assume you 're trying to ingratiate yourself . nick : well , i do n't have to . gabe and i go way back , remember ? adam : are we friends now again , nick ? i 'm having trouble keeping track of this . victoria : badmouthing me the whole time , i 'm sure . nick : paranoid much ? billy : well , the timing is kind of convenient , deciding you 're a newman after all . nick : do n't you have a poker game to get to ? adam : okay , tell you what . you kiddies play nice in the sandbox . i 'm gon na go see how jack 's doing . billy : speaking of newfound family loyalty . victoria : i filled billy in on the plan for us to act like we ca n't stand each other . very good job , by the way . i assume that gabriel thinks that we 're not gon na work together smoothly , so we keep that up . we pour on the infighting , and then he 'll think that he can divide and conquer . billy : only we make sure that it comes back to bite him . could n't have happened to a nicer guy . nick : it 's gon na be a challenge , convincing everyone that we 're on his side . victoria : well , we have to get abby to side with him on some issues and make him feel like he has an ally . nick : you think it 's wise to bring her in on this ? billy : yeah , why would n't it be ? nick : well , from what i could tell , abby seems really fired up she got this job . if we tell her what we 're up to , she may think we 're trying to undercut her authority . victoria : so then we do n't tell her . [ door opens ] abby : what 's this ? having a closed - door meeting without your new coo . ? summer : i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to bring you down . i know we 're both still working through all of this . noah : you gon na be okay ? summer : yeah , someday , i hope . noah : come here . i love you . summer : i love you . noah : it 's gon na be okay . summer : okay . thanks . marisa : i , uh , could n't help overhearing . your sister 's husband died ? noah : yeah , murdered by the same person who , uh , took courtney 's life . marisa : here in genoa city ? noah : does n't seem right . i know . marisa : [ sighs ] a serial killer ? noah : yeah . except for that the killings were n't random . [ sighs ] summer 's husband , he wanted to be a filmmaker and he was working on this project , and he found some secret that the killer did n't want exposed , and , uh , we think that courtney found out what that was during her investigation ... 'cause she wound up dead , too . marisa : when did all of this happen ? noah : austin was killed on valentine 's day , and courtney was killed on what was supposed to be our wedding day . marisa : then the killer 's -- the killer 's still out there . noah : there 's been various suspects , yeah . my mom , for one . the police arrested her , and then they decided to let her go once they agreed that she was being set up . and then there was this , um , this disgruntled employee from jabot who died , and they found a bunch of evidence in his motel room . marisa : evidence ? noah : to make it look like he was the killer . but then they finally discovered that the real killer had planted it to set him up . marisa : and this , um , this secret your fiancée discovered , what was it ? noah : no one knows . she died before she had a chance to tell anybody . but it 's big enough that someone 's willing to kill to keep it from getting out . phyllis : unresponsive ? no . i know what i felt . he heard me . doctor , look , i 'm not imagining these things , all right ? maybe later after a little bit of rest ... continue to talk to him and encourage him . phyllis : i have no intention of stopping . thank you . [ door opens ] [ door closes ] phyllis : damn it . i was so sure you were coming out of this . thought you were fighting your way back to me . jack : [ thinking ] you thought right . phyllis : there . you did it again . you squeezed my hand again . i need to get dr . singh in here . i felt it . you did it again . all right . i need to be sure this time . jack , um , if you can hear me , i 'm gon na have to ask you a - a few questions , all right ? squeeze my hand once for yes and twice for no . do you understand ? [ gasps ] that 's a yes . okay . okay . are you in pain ? [ sighs ] two squeezes . no . that 's very good . that 's very good , sweetie . did you hear the doctor when he was talking to you earlier ? yes ? then why -- why did n't you react ? i 'm sorry . that 's not a yes or no question . um ... is it because you want me to only know ? jack : [ thinking ] you 're the only one i can trust . phyllis : you do n't trust anyone else . i get it . all right . you want me to know about the shooting , do n't you ? nikki said that you called her to meet you in the park that night . is that true ? no ? did you take a gun with you ? adam : what are you doing ? [ knock on door ] kyle : i can not believe how selfish everyone is being today . including me . what 's wrong ? summer : nothing . i 'm fine . kyle : summer , i can see you 're upset . one year ago today . summer : it 's my wedding day . kyle : if you 'd rather be alone ... summer : no , no , i 'm ... glad that you 're here . this photo brings back a lot of memories . kyle : the abbotts and the newmans came together for you that day . summer : [ sighs ] yeah , but now they 're fighting again . your dad 's in the hospital . my grandpa 's in jail . just the whole thing is a mess . kyle : yeah , that 's -- that 's why i was upset when i walked in here . i 'm sorry . i just -- i gave abby a ton of grief . summer : how come ? kyle : for being disloyal . bingham gave her this huge promotion , totally undeserved , and now she is team gabe all the way . summer : sounds like you think that was part of his plan . kyle : it 's absolutely part of his plan . i told abby that she was being more newman than abbott , like that 's the worst insult you could ever give anybody . summer : yeah , but , kyle , we -- we 've talked about this . our last names do n't matter . kyle : i know . that 's not who we are . i have to keep reminding myself what you said . you know , when we were pretending to be mcgillicuddy and smith . summer : yeah , but it was all just make - believe in the end . i 've lied to myself before . i saw only what i wanted to see in austin , and ... maybe i 'm just doing the same thing with you . i do n't know . kyle : wait , summer , i 'm not cheating on you or -- summer : no , i 'm not really that a woman is gon na come in between us . i 'm worried that our family will , no matter how hard we try to fight it . billy : we were just discussing gabe , about the only topic we can all agree on . abby : where is he ? i have news for him . victoria : i do n't know . look for a big rock . maybe he slithered under it . chelsea : i know you 're not happy about your big demotion , victoria , but you should be proud of your sister . abby got the transport company to sign a new deal and reduce their rates . abby : since the merger , we have a lot more product to ship , so i told the rep that we 'd like a significant discount since we 're doing more business together . i saved newman - abbott 3 % across the board . victoria : wow . a whole 3 % . are you serious ? that 's all ? nick : abby , um , oil 's at record lows , and diesel 's pretty cheap . if you 'd known what you were doing , you probably could have got that up to at least 5 % . victoria : if not more . billy : yeah , abs , you really ought to do your homework before you negotiate a deal like that . victoria : maybe she did n't have to . how did you persuade him ? did you use your womanly charms ? a smile ? a wink ? abby : you know what ? for your information , victoria , i used my brains to close the deal , and i do n't appreciate the insinuation . chelsea : abby handled the meeting like a pro . she took advantage of an opportunity . victoria : just like gabe . well , maybe he did hire the right person for coo . after all . someone who would stoop as low as he would . noah : [ sighs ] marisa : so , there have been no other leads ? noah : just a bunch of dead ends . i mean , there was some hope a few weeks ago . there was this envelope that , uh , the killer had sent a friend of ours . marisa : did you take it to the police ? noah : yeah , yeah , we got a dna match . and it turned out to be this drug kingpin from south america . but then the fbi , they ran their own test , and suddenly that saliva matched that disgruntled employee that i told you about . so another false lead . but i 'll tell you what . the whole thing 's a little fishy . marisa : and you really thought the dna belonged to a crime lord ? noah : at first , yeah . it 's this guy that 's been on the fbi 's most - wanted list for years . very few people have ever seen him in person . marisa : what 's his name ? noah : marco annicelli . what 's that look ? what -- do you know him ? marisa : yes . phyllis : i was talking to jack , hoping he could hear me . i thought if i asked him some questions , it might make him react . but it never does . adam : you mind , uh , you mind very much if i had a few minutes alone with him ? phyllis : i - i do n't know if that 's a real good idea . adam : hmm . phyllis : but if that 's what jack wants ... adam : of course it is . yeah , phyllis . i understand that , uh , that you 're protective of him . you should be . it 's good . but , uh , there are other people who care about him , too , all right ? i 'm one of them . phyllis : yeah . that 's fine . i 'll be right outside . adam : okay . thank you . [ door closes ] adam : i wonder if she 's right . i wonder if you can hear us . [ sighs ] i wonder if you remember what happened that night , especially after you were shot . jack : [ thinking ] you better believe i do . adam : jack , when i showed up , i , um ... i saw victor there . he was standing over you . you -- you were laying on the ground . he had a gun in his hand . you were unconscious . jack : [ thinking ] shot , but not unconscious . i heard , adam . i heard you make a deal with victor . adam : jack , i did n't know what to do , okay ? victor left , and i thought you were dead , and , um ... i did n't know what to do . and as soon as i realized your heart was still beating , that you were still alive , i called the police . i called 911 . that 's what i did . jack : [ thinking ] that 's not the whole story , adam . i know the rest . i know marco showed up . you two were planning to fake his death and send victor to prison for it . it makes me wonder what else you were up to . were you in on the plot to bring marco here , to replace me so the company could be all yours ? and then what ? you turn on victor and grab the whole empire for yourself ? you can spin whatever story you like ? i know damn well you 're not innocent in all of this . i know who you are . victor 's son , not mine . is this how you repay me for keeping your secret ? by nearly getting me killed ? adam : just get better , okay ? you get better and we 're gon na figure this whole thing out together , all right ? i promise . noah : you know this guy , this criminal ? you know marco ? marisa : no , i - i meant that i know the name . that 's all . noah : why would you know the name of a south american drug lord ? marisa : the boyfriend i mentioned to you , he traveled in the same circles as marco annicelli . noah : your boyfriend ? your boyfriend worked for a drug cartel ? how closely did he work with this guy ? huh ? marisa : not all that close . noah : close enough that he could find out where he is ? marisa , look , i felt like the -- the cops , there was -- there was more to this than the cops were willing to admit . you got to do me a favor . you got to call your boyfriend . you got to call him up . come on ! this is important ! call him ! marisa : i ca n't . noah : what ? ! what do you mean , you ca n't ? why not ? ! marisa : my boyfriend , he 's gone . stitch : that was n't so bad , now was it ? ashley : no , it was n't . i 'm not worried about me right now , though , anyway . i 'm worried about jack right now . phyllis : you 're not the only one . ashley : hey , wait a minute . who let gabe in there ? phyllis : i did . and i think it 's what jack would really want . ashley : if jack knew what gabe was doing to our company , he would n't want anything to do with him . i do n't care what that dna test says . adam : excuse me . ashley : you mean you left abby in control of the company alone already ? phyllis : abby ? ashley : well , yeah . she 's our new chief operating officer . did n't he tell you ? apparently gabe thinks she 's more qualified for the position than me or victoria . phyllis : she has zero experience in operations . why would you do something like that ? adam : phyllis , i 'm not gon na defend my actions to you , okay ? or to anyone . i 've got faith in your daughter , even if her own mother does n't . ashley : having faith in my daughter had nothing to do with your decision , and you know it . i do n't give a damn if you 're an abbott or not . you 're a smug , manipulative weasel . adam : okay . ashley : and look at you . you think you 're such a big shot 'cause you won a corporate war ? you have no idea what you 've stepped into , gabe . because this battle has just begun . stitch : all right , ash , it 's not worth it . let 's -- adam : no , i - i agree . it 's not worth it . um , but here 's some advice for you since we 're all handing out free advice . uh , do n't fight battles you ca n't -- she ignores the boss , she wonders why she does n't get the promotion . phyllis : gabe . adam : unbelievable . phyllis : okay . adam : what ? phyllis : how was the chat with my husband you just had ? adam : you know what , phyllis ? just like you , i think i told him what i thought he needed to hear . billy : come on , vick . do n't be so hard on abby . we all know she 's in way over her head . abby : you , too , billy ? billy : well , abby , you are . i mean , the most responsibility you had at jabot was naming shades of lipstick . chelsea : wow , that is so insulting , billy . victoria : what he 's saying is the truth . billy : all i 'm saying is that when victoria was your age , she was a division head , and your business training has involved what ? dancing around naked to amuse the internet ? abby : what is wrong with you two ? first kyle is a total jerk to me , and now you two ? and you questioning my business ethics ? you , little miss lies - a - lot ? well , we all know why -- because you 're jealous . i stepped into your job , and i did n't screw it up . in fact , i succeeded , and you ca n't handle it . victoria : jealous ? of you ?

sheridan , i know that you were remembering that you still love me . i mean , you went to the gazebo , you went to the wharf . why else would you go to those places ? julian : that 's a good question , luis . why did my sister seem on the brink of choosing you only to choose your brother ? sheridan : i did remember our love . whitney 's song did stir something inside of me . it brought back another time , our time together , and i guess that 's why i went to those places -- to remember us and our love , and i did , luis . i did remember our love . luis : then how could you choose antonio ?

dr. ackland : i know why you hate sheridan so much , why you make her life a living hell . you blame her for your wife katherine 's death . alistair : mind your own business , doctor . dr. ackland : i 'm trying to help , mr . crane . this hatred you have for sheridan over your wife 's death is irrational . it was not your daughter 's fault . alistair : what the hell do you know ? dr. ackland : i researched hospital records . i know that your wife was in fil health before she conceived sheridan . she suffered a decline that began before she was pregnant and continued long after sheridan was born . alistair : yes , sheridan 's birth caused katherine to die a slow and painful death . dr. ackland : no . alistair : i 'd sit by her bed watching her suffer while the sound of sheridan 's laughter echoed down the hall from the nursery . how dare she be happy when her mother was in so much pain ? dr. ackland : no , but it was n't sheridan 's fault . your wife died of kidney failure , not because of your daughter . alistair : mind your own damn business ! dr. ackland : no , you -- you can not blame her for that pain . your wife -- your wife knew the risk she was taking bringing a chd to term in her health and at her age . she was willing to take that risk because she loved you , because she wanted to give you another child . alistair : do n't presume to analyze my wife . katherine was a saint -- a saint , i tell you ! dr. ackland : i believe that . it would take a saint to love a man as sick and twisted as you . you believe that sheridan cost you your happiness , so from virtually the moment she was born you 've been systematically attempting to destroy hers . alistair : you 're getting on my nerves , doctor . dr. ackland : i also learned that sheridan claims to have found a dead body in the living room of the mansion when she was a little girl and that shortly thereafter you had her sent to europe to a boarding school where unscrupulous psychiatrists played tricks with her mind . alistair : look who 's talking . dr. ackland : no , they convinced her -- they convinced her that she had not seen a body , that no one had died , that it was all her imagination . but i do n't believe it . i think she did find a dead body in the house that night , and i think it 's haunted her ever since . alistair : the police conducted a full investigation . nothing was ever found to prove sheridan 's claims . dr. ackland : yeah ! well , you made sure of that , did n't you ? just like you 're using me to make sure that sheridan does not remember her love for luis . you blame sheridan for costing you your happiness with your wife , katherine , but it was not your daughter 's fault . alistair : i 'd worry less about my daughter and more about your family if i were you , doctor . you see , you may not have a family if you do n't shut up and do your job . dr. ackland : just how evil are you , mr . crane ? alistair : would you like to find out ? grace : jessica , i 'm your mother . please let me help . jessica : i do n't want your help . i do n't even want to look at you . so just go away and leave me alone . charity : i agree with the loser . get lost , gracie . reese wants a rubdown , and i 'm going to give it to him . kay : i hate it that you have to see this , miguel . tabitha : oh , you must feel such a sap being suckered in by that girl . sam : grace , what 's going on ? what happened to jessica ? jessica : mom had no right calling you , daddy . she should n't even be here . grace : jessica , i just -- i did n't want to leave with you being so upset . sam : `` leave `` ? david : i 'm going on assignment in italy , and grace is coming with me . we leave tonight . grace : sam , i do n't have to go if you do n't want me to . you know , i could help look after the kids , maria . kay : i do n't want you anywhere near maria . jessica : and i do n't want your help . neither does noah . charity : yeah . get lost . we 're doing just fine without you . sam : i agree with the girls . maybe you should go to italy with david . yeah . we 'll be fine without you . eve : grace , are you sure that this is what you want to do ? leave harmony and go to italy with david ? grace : eve , i took your advice at the blue note . i was going to tell sam that i still love him and i want us to be a family . but then ivy came up and and it was too late . sam 's moved on , and the kids are so angry with me , i think it 's just best that i leave . eve : oh , honey , i am so sorry it 's come to this . grace : i justevever dreamed that i 'd be in love with two men , let alone be torn apart by them . and i 'm sure you did n't , either . eve : no . no , i didn't . you know i love t.c . he 's my husband and we 've built a wonderful life , but -- oh , julian -- i love julian . i realize that i always have . grace : well , one day you 're going to have to choose . eve : well , that 's if liz and whitney or rebecca do n't decide for me . grace : you know , part of me regrets choosing david , but what 's done is done . i just hope you never have to go through what i 'm going through . julian : think about it , eve . think about the wonderful life we could have away from harmony -- no more stress , no more fear . just the two of us -- eve : oh -- julian : living far away together . eve : oh , julian , you have no idea how tempting that sounds . julian : my god , you can . i can make it happen . eve : oh -- yes . julian : yes ? eve : yes , yes . take me away with you , julian . i want to go with you . ivy : i 'm proud of you , david . despite your anger at me at having blackmailed you and your guilt over ruining a perfectly happy marriage -- david : huh . ivy : your performance as grace 's long - lost husband has been nothing short of brilliant . not only did you do what i paid you to do , you 've given john the mother he always wanted and earned grace 's love , as well . so , take the casserole queen to italy and never bring her back . david : i really do love her , you know . ivy : well , then all 's well that ends well . you and grace will be as happy as sam and i . david : from your lips -- grace : kay , could i just once hold my granddaughter before i leave ? kay : no . come on . let 's go home . grace : jessica -- jessica : goodbye , mom . goodbye and good riddance . antonio : listen to that . sheridan : what ? antonio : a little peace and quiet , no more luis hounding you , trying to make you second - guess yourself , you know . you decided to stay with me , and , you know , i could n't be happier , sheridan . sheridan : i still hate that i had to hurt luis . antonio : do n't worry about my brother , ok ? look , luis should be ashamed for what he did , chasing after you , a married woman , leaving beth and her baby . he got exactly what he deserved . now it 's time for luis to move on , ok ? do right about beth if she 'll take him back . he can have a happy life with her and her baby . sheridan : well , beth has always loved luis . i 'm sure she 'll take him back . antonio : well , i hope so for luis ' sake , because he does n't have that option with you anymore . hey , i 'm going to make sure that he does n't bother you , ok ? not ever again . come here . hank : i wish i had more room , but this is it . luis : hey , do n't worry about me , buddy . i 'll just crash out right there on the trusty old couch . hank : pilar , where are you going to stay when the cranes take your house back ? pilar : at the b & b . grace asked me to look after it and the gift shop while she 's in italy with david hastings . hank : she decided to go , after all ? pilar : yeah , it was kind of last minute . hank : i 'm glad you have a place to stay . i just wish it was n't because my brother 's marriage is falling apart . pilar : i know . so many people 's lives are in turmoil -- sam and grace , luis and sheridan , and my theresa and ethan , even miguel and charity , and it 's just all so sad . and sometimes i wonder where it will all end . i mean , how much more do we have to suffer ? hank : god only knows . luis : yeah , i know one thing for sure . now that sheridan has chosen antonio over me , i 'll never be happy again . foununately , it 's charity : excuse us , hot stuff coming through . reese : charity , i think maybe it 's time i left . charit uh - uh . you came here to mess around , and we 're going to mess around . why do n't you just wait for me in my room ? come on . jessica : uh ! i ca n't believe you 're still going to carry on this way right under my nose . charity : well , believe it , jess . you lost . i won . not that reese is mr . right , but he 's ripped and so eager to please . so why do n't you just stop being a sore loser and just get a life ? and some earplugwhwhile you 're at it . but leave us alone . jessica : huh -- sam : well , grace , i guess this is goodbye . grace : sam -- sam : be safe . you , too , david . grace : um -- this is my new cell phone number . promise me you 'll call me if you or -- or the kids ever need me . sam : thanks , but i doubt that 's going to happen . i think we 'll be fine without you . grace : look , sam , i never -- sam : take care . and , grace -- grace : yes ? sam : i hope you find what you 're looking for . [ grace sobs ] david : you ready to go now ? grace : yeah , i 'm ready . tabitha : methinks we were witness to the end of an era just now . things next door will never be the same again . kay : yeah , well , we do n't care , do we ? no . we 're just happy that daddy 's here now . miguel : i 'm going to put maria down for the night . kay : oh , i 'll come with you . you know , she 's hardly ever had both of us with her at bedtime . miguel : well , she will now . kay : hey ! she 's so happy . she 's happy that her dad 's going to be living here now . miguel : time for bed , maria . come on . [ tabitha chuckles ] tabitha : maria 's not the only one that 's happy to have daddy miguel around . kay 's so happy she 's about to burst . tabitha : look , endora . look ! can you say `` bye - bye , gracie `` ? bye - bye , gracie ! [ tabitha chuckles ] tabitha : oh , it 's taken me nearly two decades to succeed . but finally the threat posed to the dark side by the standish sisisters is no more . hmm . and thanks to my wiles and my witchcraft , i have managed to keep blondie from making love to miguel , thus coming into her full powers . and thanks to you , my little mischief maker , charity is now with reese , we are safe , and the once solid bennett bunch has been reduced to a pile of rubble . and that 's just the beginning . oh , yes . we have so many more lives to ravage and ruin . ravage and ruin ravage and ruin we have many more lives to ravage and ruin antonio : our dream 's come true . you and i are together like this . you make me the happiest man in the world , and i 'm going to make sure that every day you 're happy , too . sheridan : i promise to make you happy , too , antonio , you , my husband , the man that i love . luis : you go back to the b & b and get some rest , ok ? do n't worry about me . i 'll be fine . pilar : i know , mijo . i just -- you were so sure that sheridan had remembered she was in love with you and -- luis : sheridan chose antonio . i a n't fight it anymore . hank : you 're really giving up on sheridan ? luis : well , i still think that alistair and dr . ackland had her brainwashed in the psych ward , but there was no one there tonight . she made her choice . she chose antonio , and -- well , i lost her , you know . i lost her for good this time . alistair : good night , dr . ackland . thank you for your help with sheridan . dr. ackland : i hate that i made her forget her love for luis , and i hate you for making me do it . alistair : like i give a damn . the crane secrets are safe . that 's all i care about . now get out ! antonio : i love you so much . sheridan : i love you , too . alistair : driver , take me back to my office . my daughter 's welcome to live a long and happy life with her musclebound dimwitted husband . but if she ever remembers that she 's really in love with luis , that he 's her soul mate after she robbed me of mine -- well , sheridan will join her sainted mother in the crane mausoleum . i 'll put her there myself .
jesssica 's scream of anger towards charity and reese brings the bennett household face to face again . grace tries to talk to jessica , kay , and charity , but they want nothing to do with her and they do n't hold back when telling her so . kay refuses to let grace hold baby maria , and sam takes the side of the girls . grace reaches her decision to go to italy with david . pilar agrees to take over the bed and breakfast for grace .
<s>[INST] tabitha : kay , miguel . how was the hospital benefit ? miguel : charity was there . kay : with reese . tabitha : oh , my . are they still hot and heavy ? kay : animals in the zoo behave better in public . tabitha : oh , i 'm sorry , miguel . i thought going out would take your mind off your troubles . miguel : thanks , tabitha , but nothing 's changed . we 're still losing our house to the cranes -- rebecca 's payback for the role she thinks theresa played in gwen 's baby 's death . tabitha : oh -- that rebecca . huh . she 's used her position as julian 's beastly bride to put your entire family out of work . but she ca n't take your house away , can she ? miguel : well , when theresa thought she was julian 's wife , she used crane money to rebuild it after the fire . tabitha : oh , yes . oh . and how that inferno started is still a mystery . miguel : anyways , rebecca wants the money repaid . and since we 're all out of work and alistair wo n't let sheridan loan luis the money , looks like we 're going to be homeless . kay : oh , no , ok ? do n't worry . you 'll always have a home here with maria and me . right , tabitha ? tabitha : oh -- well , i ca n't see -- kay : how you could live anyplace else . miguel : thanks , but i do n't want to impose . kay : oh , no , it 's no imposition . we insist . tabitha : indeed . i 'd have to be a very stupid witch not to want a nice young man like you moving in . kay : well , i 'm going to go feed maria . miguel : i 'll do it . i mean , i definitely want to be doing my part since i 'm going to be living here . kay : oh , ok . miguel : meme on , maria . you 're hungry , huh ? tabitha : doing your part , huh ? if kay has her way , you 'll be doing her while you 're living here . [ tabitha chuckles ] tabitha : oh , your mama does have quite a way with words , does n't she ? actually , the joke 's on us . with miguel under foot , we 're going to have to be extra careful hiding the fact that we are witches . but at least with miguel here and kay working her wiles on him 24/7 , i think we can safely say that the bod and blondie are finally history -- which is very good moves for our side , i can tell you . [ endora gurgles ] tabitha : what was that ? what did you say ? huh ? yes , i think you are right . yeah . miguel 's life is n't the only one being upheaved in harmony . there seems to be turmoil all over town . and as close as our next - door neighbors . david : grace . guess what just came by messenger . two first - class tickets to rome . we leave tonight . grace : whoa , tonight ? i did n't realize it would be so soon . david : well , i mean , you told me at the blue note there was no reason for you to stay in harmony anymore . grace : well , i know that , but -- grace : it 's just this is so all of a sudden , you know . david : sudden ? grace , the magazine 's been pushing me on this assignment for weeks . i 've held them off because of you . but we have to leave tonight . unless , of course , you 've change your mind again . charity : hey , hottuff . reese : hey . d d have been here sooner , but my parents wanted a play - by - play of the hospital benefit , so -- charity : did you tell them that we made out in front of half the town ? reese : no . charity : and did you tell them that we 're going to pick up where we left off ? reese : are you kidding me ? ooh , i have n't recovered from when they told me about the birds and the bees . if i never see finger puppets again , it 'll be too soon . charity : just shut up and kiss me . reese : hmm . are you sure it 's ok that i 'm here ? charity : relax . we 're alone . no one 's going to bother us . [ door opens and closes ] jessica : you 've got to be kidding ! sheridan : i 'm so sorry that it 's come to this -- again . i never meant to hurt anyone . sam : sheridan , you have n't done anything wrong , ok ? we all care about you very much . that 's why hank and i are here , is to make sure that you can speak freely without pressure from anyone . hank : we 've all been worried about you ever sin y you bolted from the blue note . sheridan : well , i -- i guess it was whitney 's song . it stirred feelings in me that i did n't even know i had . so i -- i left to give myself time to think , to remember things that i had forgotten , and to make sense of them all . pilar : and did you ? sheridan : yes , i did . eve : well , honey , now 's the time to be just completely honest about your feelings . sam : sheridan , what you 've been through tonight has us wondering if you still love antonio or if you remember being in love with luis . sheridan : i realize that . sam : well , sheridan , who do you want to spend the rest of your life with , luis or antonio ? 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 odbye to ordinary mops and buckets jessica : tell me you 're not taking reese up to your room to do god knows what with him right next to my bedroom . charity : well , since you asked , yes . that 's exactly what i 'm going to do . i even bought some oil to give reese a massage . he 's been so stiff lately . jessica : no , charity . i wo n't let you do it . charity : oh , well , since you ask so nicely . come on , reese . jessica : charity , how can you be so mean ? it 's bad enough that you stole reese away from me , but to throw it in my face like this ? ivy : what is going on in here ? charity : so much for being alone tonight . reese : maybe i should go . charity : no . jessica : tell charity she ca n't have reese over to make out with . ivy : charity , perhaps you and reese can find some other place . charity : i 'm sorry , ivy . am i having some kind of a vision ? who 's that man you 're with , and what is it you guys are talking about ? ivy : jessica , i know how upsetting it must be to see reese here with your cousin . maybe you can just turn up the music to drown out the sound of their -- time together . jessica : no ! i want reese to leave ! charity : shut up , jessica . what i do in my room is my business . so just butt out . speaking of butts , get your pretty one up to my room , pronto . [ jessica screams ] david : grace , have you changed your mind again ? do you not want to come with me after all ? grace : david , it 's just -- when i said i would go to italy with you , i never dreamed that it would be tonight . no , i still have so many things to take care of , you know ? i mean , people to say goodbye to . david : look , i do n't want to pressure you , but i can not ignore my job any longer . if i do n't leave tonight , i 'm going to lose this assignment , and frankly , i ca n't afford to . we 've got john 's college to pay for and the home we 'll share one day . grace : a home ? david : yes , grace . this is just the start of our life together , but when we 're not traveling , we need somewhere to come back to , a place for john to visit . i was thinking of litchfield county , connecticut . or the north shore of boston , marblehead -- grace : ok , david , just slow down , all right ? david : i 'm sorry . i -- you know , i 'm just -- i 'm just desperate to start our life together . please , grace . come with me to italy . i mean , john and pilar -- they 'll be here . they can look after the b & b and your gift shop . and what else is there for you here in harmony ? [ jessica screams ] grace : that 's jessica ! tabitha : huh . hear that , endora ? oh , oh ! mommy was right on the money about heartache in harmony . nothing spells anguish like a good loud scream . and it 's coming from right next door ! kay : we heard someone scream . miguel : are you and endora ok ? tabitha : oh , yes , yes , i 'm fine , but i think someone at kay 's house is in distress . miguel : we 'd better go check it out . kay : yeah , yeah . julian : if my sister suddenly realized she 's still in love with luis , father will kill her this time for sure . stay with antonio , poor sheridan . your life depends upon it . sheridan : this is just so hard for me because no matter who z i choose , somebody is going to get hurt , and that is the last thing that i want . pilar : we understand . eve : just tell us who you want to be with . sheridan : well , when i was alone tonight , i -- i had time to think without anyone trying to influence me or pressure me . and i was able to really look deep into my soul . and i came to realize that i love my husband . i want to stay married to antonio . antonio : i knew you still loved me . and i love you , too , my beautiful wife . you do n't know how happy you made me , how glad i am to know that i 'm right in your heart . julian : sheridan chose antonio . that bodes well for her future safety , but something 's not right . i 'm certain sheridan loves luis . pilar : i 'm so sorry , mijo . i mean , based on what sheridan had said , i was so sure that she would be choosing you . luis : yeah . yeah , i was , too . i know that sheridan was remembering that she loved me . she went to all the places that rere special to us -- the gazebo , the wharf . she even told me that she remembered falling in love with me and -- and when i proposed to her it was one of the happiest days of her life . pilar : i know . i heard it . we all heard it . luis : so what happened ? why , if she remembered all those things , did she choose antonio ? alistair : excellent work , doctor . once again , you 've made sheridan forget that she 's in love with luis . dr. ackland : i did what you asked me to , mr . crane , but i 'm not proud of it . alistair : think of it this way . by having sheridan choose to be with antonio , you saved my daughter 's life . ical peel , you with a southpaw swing . great champion he is . who could have imagined singer : you are my passion for life jessica : you 're nothing but a low - class slut . i ca n't believe i ever loved and respected you . charity : are you through with your temper tantrum ? reese and i have things to do . jessica : i hate you , charity . i hate you . ivy : jessica , i know how upsetting it must be to see your cousin making out with a -- a chiseled hunk like reese . reese : thanks , mrs . winthrop . ivy : but reese is every bit as responsible as charity . reese : oh . see ? i told you i should leave . charity : no . jessica : yes ! get out ! get out ! miguel : we heard screaming . grace : what 's going on ? jessica : she is doing it again ! tabitha : doing what , dear ? jessica : charity wants to make out with reese upstairs , and her room is right next to mine . kay : i 'm sorry you had to hear that , miguel . jessica : i ca n't believe how mean charity is , constantly reminding me that she stole reese ! grace : jessica , i 'm -- i 'm sorry you 're upset , but maybe you misunderstood why charity invited reese over . jessica : no , i did n't ! chitity wants to give reese a rubdown -- whatever that 's code for . and you 're taking her side again ! oh -- why is that , mom ? why ca n't you see charity for the selfish slut she really is ? kay : because mom 's a selfish slut , too , jess , leaving daddy and us for david . grace : ok , jessica , let 's just focus on you and your cousin , all right ? let me help make things right between you two . jessica : forget it ! i do n't want your help . grace : jess -- jessica : do n't touch me ! stay away from m you 're just as disgusting as charity . alistair : do n't be so hard on yourself . you did the right thing . dr. ackland : like i had a choice . you would have ruined me if i had n't kept sheridan from remembering that she loves luis . sheridan : father -- dr . ackland , what are you doing ? alistair : shut up and hold still ! you 've caused me enough trouble already ! sheridan : why ? what did i do ? alistair : you lived , sheridan ! you lived and your mother died ! sheridan : oh ! alistair : give her the drug ! sheridan : no ! no , no , no , no , no ! no , no , you stay away from me ! no ! no ! no ! oh ! oh ! alistair : consider yourself lucky , my dear . had we not come upon you wandering the grounds , you could have gone straight to luis and declared your undying love for him . then i would have had to kill you . now you wo n't remember this incident any more than you 'll remember that luis is your heart 's desire . dr. ackland : mr. crane , i 've told you , there 's always a chance that something may jog sheridan 's memory and make her realize she loves luis more than antonio . alistair : and i 've told you to make certain that does n't happen -- or else . dr. ackland : sheridan ? sheridan , listen to me . this is very important . ok , you do n't love luis . you love antonio . sheridan : antonio -- dr . ackland : yes . yes , antonio is your husband . luis is a spoiler . he wants to ruin your happiness . he wants to lead you away from the true love you have with antonio . you ca n't let that happen . you must n't let that happen . you have to stay with antonio , your husband . sheridan : hm dr . ackland : the man that you love . sheridan : yeah . dr. ackland : yes . sheridan : yes , i -- i love antonio . dr. ackland : ok . sheridan : i want to stay married to my husband , not be with luis . oh . alistair : hmm , fear is a great motivator , is n't it , doctor ? you should write a paper on the subject , have it published . dr. ackland : no , you 're the expert on fear tactics , are n't you ? i ca n't imagine the hell it must have been for sheridan and julian growing up in your house , especially sheridan . how you must hate her to treat her the way you do . sheridan : luis , i 'm so sorry . i never meant to hurt you . luis : sheridan , what happened ? sheridan , i know that you were remembering that you still love me . i mean , you went to the gazebo , you went to the wharf . why else would you go to those places ? julian : that 's a good question , luis . why did my sister seem on the brink of choosing you only to choose your brother ? sheridan : i did remember our love . whitney 's song did stir something inside of me . it brought back another time , our time together , and i guess that 's why i went to those places -- to remember us and our love , and i did , luis . i did remember our love . luis : then how could you choose antonio ? sheridan : because our love is in the past . i 'm sorry , luis , but it 's over . it 's finished . luis : no , it 's not . sheridan , please , i saw the look on your face when you heard that song ! sheridan , you love me . i know that you still love me . i know that you remembered ! sheridan : luis , i 'm sorry , but you 're wrong . i love my husband , and i want to be with him . i want to have a family with him . luis : i ca n't believe this is happening . antonio : well , believe it , luis . she chose me , not you . now accept it . you can go ahead and leave . just leave us alone , ok ? it 's decision time . now people have that sense of trust . l litical experience is necessary . but i do n't have the political baggage . this saturday , they learn which one of them got the job . but not before you do . live coverage : conservative leadership convention saturday . sam : listen , guys , just cool it , all right ? luis , maybe it 's best that you do leave . sheridan : please , both of you , listen to sam . fighting is n't going to change anything . antonio : i do n't want to fight , sheridan . i just want luis to leave . sheridan : you know what , luis ? maybe it would be best if you did leave for now . luis : sheridan , i know -- sheridan : please , luis . i did what you wanted . i remembered our love . but i 'm in love with antonio . he is my husband , and i want to be with him . luis : ok . ok . i 'm leaving . antonio : good . and i hope you finally got it this time . sheridan loves me . hank : luis , you can crash at my place . pilar : come on , mijo . [ phone rings ] sam : sam bennett . yeah , what 's -- ok . i 'm on my way . there 's a problem at the house . i got to get there right away . t.c . : well , sam , we 'll come with you . sam : ok . eve : i 've just got to get my bag . i 'll catch up with you outside . t.c . : ok . sheridan : thanks . eve : julian . did you hear what was going on ? julian : yes , yes , but something is n't right . i know that my sister loves luis , and the fact that she chose antonio -- unless my father had something to do with it . eve : oh , you think alistair might be behind this ? julian : well , you remember what he did to us , how i let him scare me into leaving you , and then he stole our baby and has kept him from us to this very day ? he 's capable of anything . god , i do fear for my poor sister . who knows what he 'll do to her next ? dr. ackland : i know why you hate sheridan so much , why you make her life a living hell . you blame her for your wife katherine 's death . alistair : mind your own business , doctor . dr. ackland : i 'm trying to help , mr . crane . this hatred you have for sheridan over your wife 's death is irrational . it was not your daughter 's fault . alistair : what the hell do you know ? dr. ackland : i researched hospital records . i know that your wife was in fil health before she conceived sheridan . she suffered a decline that began before she was pregnant and continued long after sheridan was born . alistair : yes , sheridan 's birth caused katherine to die a slow and painful death . dr. ackland : no . alistair : i 'd sit by her bed watching her suffer while the sound of sheridan 's laughter echoed down the hall from the nursery . how dare she be happy when her mother was in so much pain ? dr. ackland : no , but it was n't sheridan 's fault . your wife died of kidney failure , not because of your daughter . alistair : mind your own damn business ! dr. ackland : no , you -- you can not blame her for that pain . your wife -- your wife knew the risk she was taking bringing a chd to term in her health and at her age . she was willing to take that risk because she loved you , because she wanted to give you another child . alistair : do n't presume to analyze my wife . katherine was a saint -- a saint , i tell you ! dr. ackland : i believe that . it would take a saint to love a man as sick and twisted as you . you believe that sheridan cost you your happiness , so from virtually the moment she was born you 've been systematically attempting to destroy hers . alistair : you 're getting on my nerves , doctor . dr. ackland : i also learned that sheridan claims to have found a dead body in the living room of the mansion when she was a little girl and that shortly thereafter you had her sent to europe to a boarding school where unscrupulous psychiatrists played tricks with her mind . alistair : look who 's talking . dr. ackland : no , they convinced her -- they convinced her that she had not seen a body , that no one had died , that it was all her imagination . but i do n't believe it . i think she did find a dead body in the house that night , and i think it 's haunted her ever since . alistair : the police conducted a full investigation . nothing was ever found to prove sheridan 's claims . dr. ackland : yeah ! well , you made sure of that , did n't you ? just like you 're using me to make sure that sheridan does not remember her love for luis . you blame sheridan for costing you your happiness with your wife , katherine , but it was not your daughter 's fault . alistair : i 'd worry less about my daughter and more about your family if i were you , doctor . you see , you may not have a family if you do n't shut up and do your job . dr. ackland : just how evil are you , mr . crane ? alistair : would you like to find out ? grace : jessica , i 'm your mother . please let me help . jessica : i do n't want your help . i do n't even want to look at you . so just go away and leave me alone . charity : i agree with the loser . get lost , gracie . reese wants a rubdown , and i 'm going to give it to him . kay : i hate it that you have to see this , miguel . tabitha : oh , you must feel such a sap being suckered in by that girl . sam : grace , what 's going on ?

[ scene_break ] delphina : [ as prof. fina ] it 's cool . rex : yeah , the cell phone is definitely one of the coolest inventions ever . prof. fina : no , i meant the temperature . you said it was warm , but it is n't . that would make sense because , well , it 's a polymer , is n't it ? and by that , i mean it 's an aluminum alloy , neither of which are very good conductors . rex : it felt warm . not aluminum or plastic warm , warm like i was touching – [ scene_break ] gigi : it felt warm . rex and gigi : someone 's hand .

[ scene_break ] gigi : are you getting anything ? delphina : no . gigi : you know , when i talked to rex that one time , he said the thing about ' 68 , but he also mentioned vietnam . delphina : yeah , that does n't surprise me . 1968 was the tet offensive . getting drafted was on the mind of every american boy . gigi : do you think -- he could n't get drafted while he 's back in ' 68 , could he ? gigi : delphina , what if we do n't get back to 1968 in time ? if he 's drafted , they 'll send him to vietnam . delphina : look , gigi -- gigi : no , no , no , we studied the vietnam war in high school . almost 60,000 americans died in that war . if we do n't get back there in time , rex could be one of them . [ scene_break ] layla : i knew that adriana paid you off and that dorian doubled it . brody : yeah , and i put every cent of that money into a trust fund for shane 's education . i could n't touch it now if i wanted to , so it 's not about the money . layla : well , then what 's it about ? brody : that boy needs a father . and i said i would be there for him and i 'm a man of my word . layla : that 's new and different . brody : yeah , not a crime . layla : and how do you think rex would feel about that ? [ scene_break ] gigi : oh , god , please tell me you 're seeing something . delphina : well , i am seeing you . gigi : yeah , 'cause i 'm next to you . delphina : no , you 're seeing a ship off . gigi : oh , god , oh , god , it 's true . they 're sending rex to vietnam . delphina : no , no , no , it 's not rex . it 's a porpoise ? gigi : a what ? delphina : oh , a seal . gigi : oh , that 's brody . yeah , he was a navy seal . you must be seeing me saying good - bye to him when he left for afghanistan . delphina : yes , but what i 'm not seeing is why you 're pretending that this seal is shane 's father . [ scene_break ] brody : rex walked out on gigi . he did n't care what happened to her . i was there to pick up the pieces . layla : so you 're a saint . that still does n't make you shane 's father . brody : i 'm his father in every way that counts . i would have been there from the beginning if my mother did n't lie to me about gigi . i take him to his games . i help him with his homework . i put food on the table . he loves me and i love him . it 's working out for both of us . layla : i guess . you were going nowhere fast when we found you . brody : hey , look , lady , i did three tours of duty overseas . that messes with your head . only , now i have a reason to fight through it , shane . so do n't you come in here acting like you know what 's best for me or that boy . you do n't . you and your friend , adriana , you started this , now you stay out of it . layla : all i 'm saying is you 're living a lie , and lies have a nasty way of sneaking up on you . brody : hey , you know what ? tell me something . does you best friend , adriana , does she know what you 're doing ? i thought she wanted me hooked up with gigi so she could get back together with rex . layla : what adriana did was wrong . she lied to rex , and vince lied to me and i felt awful , so i do n't want this happening to anyone else . not rex , and especially not shane . [ scene_break ] bo : [ as asa ] is that what you want ? you want bo to go to canada , olympia ? lindsay : [ as olympia ] tonight . asa : canada is for a bunch of candy - assed hippies who do n't have the backbone to stand up and fight . nigel : [ as chuck sr . ] you tell 'em , boss . chuck : [ as chuck jr. ] we 'll be okay , mrs. b . do n't you worry . asa : those viet cong , they 're not gon na know what hit 'em when our boys get to town . chuck : besides , if we go up to canada , we ca n't never come home . chuck sr . : tell your mother you do n't want to go to canada , bo . you 'd miss her too much . rex : [ as bo ] actually , canada 's a terrific place . olympia : i 'd rather have him exiled to canada rather than get shot to pieces in some rice paddy fighting in a war that we should n't have gotten involved in in the first place . moe : [ as jeremiah ] right on . you tell 'em , lady . [ music blares ] chuck sr . : somebody show this draft dodger the door . jeremiah : hey , make love , not war , brother . jared : [ as clint ] hey , chuck , this here 's a party . dallas : [ as renee ] that 's right , and we 're crashing it . hey , asa . olympia : asa buchanan , you 're a dog , inviting women to my house . renee : oh , we were n't invited . gigi : [ as emma ] but you 're right about one thing . your husband 's a dog . bo : right from the frying pan right into the fire . bo : how much more time do we need before we go to that fence ? delphina : [ as prof. fina ] well , that depends on mother nature . bo : well , that 's just great . i 've got balsom about to be sent to vietnam . i 've got two women from a nevada brothel that are just itching for a fight . and i 'm waiting for my son , clint , to find out that i sent the woman that he loves away .

[ scene_break ] gigi : rex left town before i found out i was pregnant , so i never got a chance to tell him . delphina : mm . gigi : and then i met brody and he kind of fell for me . and any guy who falls for a girl who is pregnant by someone else is pretty special . delphina : yeah , i 'd say one in a million . gigi : yeah , he even wanted to marry me and raise my baby as his own and , you know , i was kind of thinking about it even though -- delphina : even though you 're not in love with him , yeah . gigi : right . and then he left for afghanistan and word came back from his mother that he had been killed over there . she lied to me . delphina : because you were n't good enough for her navy seal . gigi : i do n't blame her , though . i only would have married brody to give shane a father . that 's what i did , i made him shane 's daddy . i mean , what was i going to tell my son ? that his father was a jerk who walked out on him before he was even born ? so i told him his dad was a war hero . i gave him a story to tell the kids at school and it made him happy and that 's all that mattered , until rex showed up .

[ scene_break ] brody : my shift is over . i 'm going home to my son . you should mind your own business . layla : it changes you , being lied to . it makes you rethink everything . all that time vince was being kind to me when my sister was injured , it was all an act . brody : you do n't know that . layla : you 're right , i do n't know because that 's what lies do to you . it makes you doubt everything , even yourself . how do you think shane 's going to feel when he finds out you 're not really his father ? brody : he 's not going to , unless you tell him . [ scene_break ] delphina : so why did n't you tell rex about shane when you met him again ? gigi : because i did n't want to wreck his life . he was engaged to adriana . delphina : dorian 's daughter ? ew , i do n't see that . gigi : neither did i . delphina : yeah . gigi : and there it was , they were engaged so i tried to stay away from him . delphina : hmm . gigi : oh , god , i really did . i tried to stop thinking about him , oh , but i could n't . it got so bad that i stood up at their wedding and made a fool out of myself . delphina : wait , i knew that . gigi : you did ? delphina : yeah , i read about it in `` the sun . `` tell me , did dorian just , like , die ? gigi : no , 'cause she was the one who egged me on . she wanted me to break them up .

[ scene_break ] layla : oh , do n't worry . i promised adriana i 'd keep her secret . she 's convinced that if rex finds out shane 's his son , he 'd divorce her and marry gigi . brody : he probably would if she 'd have him . layla : and you do n't think rex might be a little bit ticked off at gigi for lying to him all these years ? i mean , if i were rex , i would never trust her again . brody : you 've got a point . layla : and you 'd settle for that . if rex walked out on her , you 'd settle for second best . brody : my shift is over , lady . have a good night .

[ scene_break ] gigi : are you getting anything ? delphina : no . gigi : you know , when i talked to rex that one time , he said the thing about ' 68 , but he also mentioned vietnam . delphina : yeah , that does n't surprise me . 1968 was the tet offensive . getting drafted was on the mind of every american boy . gigi : do you think -- he could n't get drafted while he 's back in ' 68 , could he ? gigi : delphina , what if we do n't get back to 1968 in time ? if he 's drafted , they 'll send him to vietnam . delphina : look , gigi -- gigi : no , no , no , we studied the vietnam war in high school . almost 60,000 americans died in that war . if we do n't get back there in time , rex could be one of them .

it was about the time that he lost his wife , lila . and my mother took advantage of edward 's grief . olivia : shocker . steve : fortunately , he figured out it was all about the money , so he had the thing annulled right away . a lot smarter than me , i have to say that . olivia : what 're you talking about ? steve : i 'm the one who let her out . olivia : honey , that was because the doctors told you it was okay . steve , you 're a good man . you 're the best . all i keep thinking about is poor monica . she loses her son and then her father - in - law , one right after the other . steve : at least she has her other son , a.j . olivia : yeah , and what 's the deal with that ?

( laughs ) yeah , i am . i really am . just what we 've been hoping for , huh ? olivia : absolutely . phillip : i tell you what , i think if i keep feeling like this , i 'm going to be out of here before you know it . and then we can start our life together , start raising our daughter together . hey , i think i owe somebody a honeymoon , do n't i ? olivia : oh , well , that sounds like a dream . really . but you know , once you get out of here , you 're going to have to take things slowly . and i have to say , you do seem a little different . more clear . do your doctors know about this ... how you 've made this sudden improvement ? phillip : oh , well , for them it 's just a big mystery , but i know . olivia : you do ? phillip : mm - hmm . it 's you . your love has made me a new man . danny : remember when we went to the beach last year with robbie ? michelle : yeah . danny : and the two of you spent half the day working on that sand castle , made it look just like our house . michelle : yeah . it was some castle , was n't it ? danny : yeah . what happened to it ? michelle : the tide came in and washed it away . danny : because you built it too close to the water . michelle : i never thought robbie would stop crying . danny : but he did stop . because of what you said to him . do you remember what you said to him ? michelle : yes . i told him that next year we 'd build an even bigger sand castle further up the beach , that would be safe . danny : that 's what i tried to do . i tried to do that , michelle . i tried to find a safe spot for us . michelle : what do you mean ? danny : and i wish that i could tell you the same thing that you told robbie , that we 'll get another chance . michelle : okay , you 're starting to scare me now . danny : i built our life too close to the water . and i thought that we 'd be okay , i really did . i really did . but what i have to tell you , it 's enough to wipe us out . michelle : danny , if this is about the election and how they took it from you ... danny : no . no , it 's not . no , no . it started before then , back when ... you remember when i decided to go clean and i wanted to break free of the other families . michelle : and you did . you did . danny : ( sighs ) you remember i told you it was n't going to be that simple ? that you ca n't just break clean away ? it would have left me with nothing , nothing to start over with . michelle : i do n't understand . i ... danny : when i made the decision tbreak up the santos crime family and sell off my mob interests , i did n't exactly give everything up . i made a deal with salerno so that i could continue to receive a cut of some of the business that i gave him , sanitation and construction . michelle : dirty money ? danny : i needed it , michelle . i did . it was the only way i could make fifth street happen , and i really believed -- i really believed -- that construction and sanitation were the lesser of the evils , and they were n't hurting anybody , and that i could really do good with that money . it was the only way i could get fifth street off the ground . michelle : all of fifth street ? all of it is built on mob money ? danny : no , not all of it . you 've got to believe me that i really thought that if i could give back enough to that community -- that community that my family destroyed -- and give them more housing and more jobs , that would justify what i was doing . michelle : oh , god , danny , what have you done ? danny : michelle , i 've done a lot of good . that neighborhood is booming . you know that . you 've seen it . michelle : you are a liar . everything you told me this past year -- everything -- about coming clean and leaving crime behind was a lie . danny : no . just in the beginning , so we could get on our feet , michelle . i had to do it . michelle : for what ? for what ? danny : us . we would have had nothing ... michelle : no . danny : ... if i did n't do it . michelle : liar ! you 're a liar ! ( door slams ) olivia : no , i ca n't take credit for this . you and your doctors must be trying something new . phillip : no . no , it 's you . just between the two of us , i was n't exactly sticking to the program . i was n't taking my medication all the time because the doctors and nurses , i 'd just ... i did n't feel like i could really trust them . but then i realized they 're the only people that i can trust . olivia : oh ? phillip : yeah . if i want to get home to my adoring wife and my kids , my new baby girl , then i have to do everything the doctors tell me to do . yeah , i had like a ... hm . what 's the word i 'm looking for ? olivia : an epiphany ? phillip : an epiphany . i had an epiphany . and rick says that if i keep going like this , i 'll be able to go home in no time . you know , i guess ... i guess all i really needed was to make myself work at it , and i needed a reason to do that . and that 's you . you 're the reason . olivia : well , i 'm just beyond words . phillip : i bet . pretty exciting , huh ? olivia : yeah , it is . still , you know , you do n't want to push it . things are fine at home . emma and i have moved into the house and i seem to be getting along surprisingly well with everyone . phillip : yeah . even with lizzie ? olivia : yes , even with lizzie . so do n't push yourself , all right ? that 's what got you in here in the first place . phillip : oh , i know . ( chuckles ) i 've learned so much in here . olivia : and i want that to continue , i do . i just ... i want you to avoid any stress that might slow down your recovery . phillip : then i guess you 'll just have to make sure you do n't stress me out . frank : of course we would love to have you guys over for dinner . i mean , the girls are old friends . bill : yeah , well , sometimes people would like to forget they 're old friends . frank : yes , i 'm sure the girls would like to forget about their past , but that does n't mean they ca n't be friends . i mean , darci still cares about eden . bill : i 'm sure she does , but what about you , frank . huh ? do you like eden ? frank : yeah . she 's fine , yeah . bill : oh , man . frank : what , are you asking me a loaded question , here ? bill : no , i 'm ... look , i 'm sorry . it 's just ... i love eden s much . i mean , i love the way she 's faced her demons and she 's conquered them . she 's worked so hard to make a new life for herself . frank : well , good for her . she 's lucky to have a guy like you , who acknowledges and appreciates that . bill : see , now that 's another thing right there . everyone says how lucky eden is , but no one ever says how lucky i am to have her . you know ? and she knows that . and i hate that for her . frank : do n't worry about that , bill . it 'll gets easier with time . bill : well , even people like olivia spencer think they have the right to look down on her . frank : olivia ? bill : yeah , i mean , come on , olivia is just as much of an outlaw as eden ever was , so ... frank : funny you should say that . i 've never really pictured olivia as an outlaw . i mean , it 's kind of an interesting image , but ... bill : ( laughs ) frank : to be honest with you , i really do n't put the two girls in the same category . bill : see ? see what i mean ? that 's what i 'm talking about . frank : bill , let me just share a little history with you , here . my family has definitely made its share of mistakes and shame on me if i do n't accept eden for who she is now . you know what i 'm saying ? bill : thank you , frank . i appreciate that . frank : it 's all right . i 've got to get to towers , so i 'll drop off the keys to my daughter . bill : you know , i can take those to marina because i want to swing by and say hi to cassie and tammy anyway , so ... frank : all right . thank you . bill : you got it . frank : bill ? bill : hm ? frank : i meant what i said about eden . bill : thank you , and you 're right . everyone deserves the opportunity to forget about their past . joey : tammy 's always thinking that i 'm not good enough for her . and you know what ? she 's so great that sometimes i start thinking that , too , but tonight was going to be the night where i show her that i could be the guy that she wants , you know ? with the play and the song . like in the movies , you know ? she drags me to all these chick flicks and there 's always this big , hopeless romantic gesture scene . and this was it . this was going to be our scene tonight . lizzie : well , um , the show must go on . joey : what ? lizzie : that 's what sandy told us before the curtain went up tonight : that even if you mess up or you flub up on a line that you have to embrace the unexpected . joey : yeah , well , that might work in the play , but , i mean , how can i sing to a girl who 's not even here ? lizzie : well , you can sing to a girl who is here . just think of it as the dress rehearsal and i 'll be the stand- in . cassie : hey . edmund : oh , hey . cassie : so , did you find tammy ? edmund : yes , i did . i did . and then i lost her again . cassie , there 's something ... joey : hi , everyone . can i have your attention , please ? i had something special prepared for my leading lady tonight , but unfortunately , she had to go . but a friend of mine said i should go ahead and do it anyway . i mean , why not ? practice makes perfect , right , sandy ? sandy : oh , yeah . we know how you love those long rehearsals , lupo . joey : ( laughs ) well , here we go . tammy , this one 's for you . and you can tell everybody this is your song it may be quite simple but now that it 's done i hope you do n't mind i hope you do n't mind that i put down in words how wonderful life is now you 're in the world i sat on the roof and i kicked off the moss well some of these verses well , they got me quite cross but the sun 's been kind while i wrote this song it 's for people like you that keep them turned on so excuse me forgetting but these things i do you see i 've forgotten if they 're green or they 're blue oh , i well , the thing is what i really mean yours are the sweetest eyes i 've ever seen . ( cheers and applause ) olivia : i do n't want to stress you out . how could you even think that knowing that it could risk your recovery ? phillip : is that a rhetorical question ? ( laughing ) i 'm kidding . i 'm kidding . i guess i just feel so good , i 'm a little giddy . olivia : i know . i know that you ca n't wait to get out of here . i do n't want you to come to this prematurely . phillip : no . the sooner the better . the sooner the better . you 're going to need my help at the house . olivia : why would you say that ? phillip : i know my family . i know you 're bound to have problems with alan and alexandra . you should n't have to go in battle alone . no , we 're man and wife . we 're a team . and we 're going to be a team in a way that we 've never been a team before . running the family , running the company . olivia : well , that 's all i ever wanted , you know , the two of us together . but i would never seriously risk your heath to further my own cause . phillip : you 're really something else . always thinking about me . you 've taken such good care of me , olivia . i ca n't wait for the day that i can take care of you . cassie : gosh , i ca n't believe that tammy missed this . edmund : yeah , it 's a shame . joey did a great job . cassie : where is she ? shayne : i think it 's time for my girl to hit the dance floor . marina : you 're up for dancing ? shayne : not me . not tonight . but the sandman can fill in . sandy : are you saying you want me to dance with your girlfriend ? shayne : i 'm saying that i want my girl to have a good time . and you happen to have the stronger legs at the moment . so ... sandy : you mean , you 're not afraid that i might just sweep her off her feet ? shayne : well , i still have the stronger arms . so if you sweep her off her feet , i 'll just knock you off yours . fair enough ? sandy : ow ! fair enough . well put big brother . what do you say , marina ? marina : i really do n't have to dance , shayne . really . shayne : no , baby , go . marina : i 'm fine right here . shayne : will you go ? i 'm tired of watching these amateurs . go , go . give me this . have fun . cassie : tammy would be loving this . where is she ? beth : so tammy 's boyfriend has quite a voice , huh ? lizzie : yeah , and he 's this total baseball stud . and did you see how great he did in the play ? tammy 's so lucky . if i had joey as my boyfriend ... you know what ? i should probably go congratulate him . beth : lizzie . never mind . lizzie : hey there , rock star . oh , my gosh , you told me you were going to sing . i did n't think it was going to be like that . joey : you liked it ? tammy : it was amazing . i was so impressed . joey : thanks . i 'm really glad that you made me go up there and do it . you catch my little thank you wink ? lizzie : is that what that was ? joey : yeah . lizzie : well , if you ever need any more encouragement for your next performance , you know who to call . you did really great . joey : thanks , lizzie . i just wish tammy saw it , you know . lizzie : yeah , that 's too bad . tammy : usually i write what i need to vent and that 's a lot . but tonight ... tonight i had the most perfect night . so perfect that i 'm afraid if i do n't put it down on paper , i 'll forget how it feels forever . from the moment the curtain went up it 's all been so surreal , like i 'm watching someone else living my life a million times better than i ever could . but it was me up on the stage . it was me getting the applause . it was me out on that balcony . danny : look , you have to understand something . all i wanted was to be the father and the husband you and robbie deserved . i wanted to give you a name ... michelle : do n't even say that . danny : ... that you could be proud of . i did n't think it could hurt us . i did n't think it could hurt me . if i did , do you think i would have felt safe enough to run for office ? and then we got caught up with the campaign and i really convinced myself that what i was doing was for the best . i never dreamed that it would make us vulnerable . never . i 'm sorry . i was wrong . ( door closes ) tammy : next on `` guiding light `` ... danny : i got myself into this situation . i 'm going to get myself out of it on my own . it 's my problem . michelle : yeah , like hell it is . olivia : you know what ? maybe you 're right , darling . maybe time away is just what you need . phillip : as long as it 's not time away from you .
philip gets his first electric terapy but has no memory of it . philip says it feels like his mind is resting which should help him figure out what do about olivia . tammy gives edmund the credit for tammy 's performance . a school review is read at the cast party and everyone 's a hit . bill tells olivia he is engaged to eden . outside the party tammy kisses edmund on the lips then runs out of the party and home to write in her journal . joey is upset tammy wo n't hear his song but lizzie encourages him to do it anyway . joey sings `` your song `` by elton john and dedicateds it to tammy . michelle tells danny some kids picked on robbie at his play date . danny tells michelle he used money from salerno to fund fifth street . olivia is shocked that phillip has improved and tried to tell him not to push too hard .

( laughter ) edmund : you know , i thought i 'd find juliet out on the balcony . darling , i admire your commitment to character , but your entire fan club is inside . tammy : i just needed a minute to -- i do n't know -- soak it all in . been through a lot of bad times that seemed to last forever . i mean , every once in a while , you get a really great moment and it just flies by . i guess i just wanted to make this one last a little bit longer . edmund : well , you found a perfect place to do it . a star among the stars . your school paper even said so . `` a star is born at springfield high . `` do n't ever sell yourself short . you were spectacular tonight , an earth - treading star that makes the dark heaven light . michelle : well , i finally got him to sleep . needless to say , robbie wo n't be going to brian 's house any time soon . danny ? what is it ? danny : we need to talk . ( sighs ) there 's something i need to tell you , something that i 've tried to keep you away from . but i ca n't do it anymore . michelle : what are you talking about ? danny : the truth . honey , you need to know the truth about me . the inside scoop from oprah 's producers , next `` oprah . `` tammy : this night just keeps getting better . edmund : tammy , we have to talk ... tammy : i have to get back inside . do n't tell mom or anything , okay ? edmund : tammy ... joey : there you are . i 've been looking all over for you . look , stay right there , all right ? do n't go anywhere . i mean it . lizzie : hey , tammy . are you okay ? tammy : what ? yeah . i just have to go . lizzie : where ? tammy : tonight 's just so great , i want to go home and write it all down before i forget about it , you know ? lizzie : yeah ! you know what ? you better hurry up and write it down before you forget it . that 's a great idea . tammy : uh - huh . see you later . lizzie : oh , wait . did n't joey say something about ... tammy : oh . yeah . would you just tell him i had to go ? lizzie : sure , if that 's what you want me to do . okay . shayne : there she is , my cousin tammy . the prettiest juliet ever . lizzie : that 's right , go write in your stupid little journal , tammy . i 'll take care of joey . edmund : all right . all right , i need to tell cassie about this . maybe i should sit tammy down first . maybe i should sit them both down . what the hell just happened here ? lizzie : oh , poor joey . tammy just does n't appreciate you , but i do . joey : lizzie , have you seen tammy ? lizzie : um ... bill : working on a big case , chief ? frank : oh , hey bill . no . my daughter , for the life of her , can not hold onto her keys , so she feels like she lost them here , so i told her i 'd come by and see if i could find them for her and bring them to her . bingo . bill : perfect . you 're a good dad , frank . frank : yes , i am . bill : it 's going to be a little weird , though , when the police chief shows up at a teen party . frank : well , it 's a kind of an after - party for the high school play . it 's at towers . bill : fancy . frank : and what are you doing here ? bill : well , you ever have a conversation with someone , you remember all the stuff you want to say when it 's over ? frank : uh , yeah . that happens every single time i talk to my father , my daughter and my sister . bill : yeah . i thought of a good closing statement , but it looks like my sparring partner 's gone . frank : and that would be eden ? bill : olivia , actually , but it was about eden . frank : well , speaking of which , how 's she doing these days ? bill : she 's good . good , thanks . frank : you know what ? why do n't the two of you join us for dinner ? darci 's taking some cooking classes and she 's looking for some people to experiment on . seriously , just have eden call darci . bill : oh , come on , frank . you really want eden as a dinner guest ? olivia : hello . how are you ? phillip : i 'm good . olivia : yeah ? phillip : i 'm good . olivia : i did n't wake you up , did i ? phillip : no . no , actually ... actually , i was just sitting here thinking about you . hey , you look great . olivia : oh . thanks . so do you . i guess this means you 're feeling better . phillip : yeah . ( laughs ) yeah , i am . i really am . just what we 've been hoping for , huh ? olivia : absolutely . phillip : i tell you what , i think if i keep feeling like this , i 'm going to be out of here before you know it . and then we can start our life together , start raising our daughter together . hey , i think i owe somebody a honeymoon , do n't i ? olivia : oh , well , that sounds like a dream . really . but you know , once you get out of here , you 're going to have to take things slowly . and i have to say , you do seem a little different . more clear . do your doctors know about this ... how you 've made this sudden improvement ? phillip : oh , well , for them it 's just a big mystery , but i know . olivia : you do ? phillip : mm - hmm . it 's you . your love has made me a new man . danny : remember when we went to the beach last year with robbie ? michelle : yeah . danny : and the two of you spent half the day working on that sand castle , made it look just like our house . michelle : yeah . it was some castle , was n't it ? danny : yeah . what happened to it ? michelle : the tide came in and washed it away . danny : because you built it too close to the water . michelle : i never thought robbie would stop crying . danny : but he did stop . because of what you said to him . do you remember what you said to him ? michelle : yes . i told him that next year we 'd build an even bigger sand castle further up the beach , that would be safe . danny : that 's what i tried to do . i tried to do that , michelle . i tried to find a safe spot for us . michelle : what do you mean ? danny : and i wish that i could tell you the same thing that you told robbie , that we 'll get another chance . michelle : okay , you 're starting to scare me now . danny : i built our life too close to the water . and i thought that we 'd be okay , i really did . i really did . but what i have to tell you , it 's enough to wipe us out . michelle : danny , if this is about the election and how they took it from you ... danny : no . no , it 's not . no , no . it started before then , back when ... you remember when i decided to go clean and i wanted to break free of the other families . michelle : and you did . you did . danny : ( sighs ) you remember i told you it was n't going to be that simple ? that you ca n't just break clean away ? it would have left me with nothing , nothing to start over with . michelle : i do n't understand . i ... danny : when i made the decision tbreak up the santos crime family and sell off my mob interests , i did n't exactly give everything up . i made a deal with salerno so that i could continue to receive a cut of some of the business that i gave him , sanitation and construction . michelle : dirty money ? danny : i needed it , michelle . i did . it was the only way i could make fifth street happen , and i really believed -- i really believed -- that construction and sanitation were the lesser of the evils , and they were n't hurting anybody , and that i could really do good with that money . it was the only way i could get fifth street off the ground . michelle : all of fifth street ? all of it is built on mob money ? danny : no , not all of it . you 've got to believe me that i really thought that if i could give back enough to that community -- that community that my family destroyed -- and give them more housing and more jobs , that would justify what i was doing . michelle : oh , god , danny , what have you done ? danny : michelle , i 've done a lot of good . that neighborhood is booming . you know that . you 've seen it . michelle : you are a liar . everything you told me this past year -- everything -- about coming clean and leaving crime behind was a lie . danny : no . just in the beginning , so we could get on our feet , michelle . i had to do it . michelle : for what ? for what ? danny : us . we would have had nothing ... michelle : no . danny : ... if i did n't do it . michelle : liar ! you 're a liar ! ( door slams ) olivia : no , i ca n't take credit for this . you and your doctors must be trying something new . phillip : no . no , it 's you . just between the two of us , i was n't exactly sticking to the program . i was n't taking my medication all the time because the doctors and nurses , i 'd just ... i did n't feel like i could really trust them . but then i realized they 're the only people that i can trust . olivia : oh ? phillip : yeah . if i want to get home to my adoring wife and my kids , my new baby girl , then i have to do everything the doctors tell me to do . yeah , i had like a ... hm . what 's the word i 'm looking for ? olivia : an epiphany ? phillip : an epiphany . i had an epiphany . and rick says that if i keep going like this , i 'll be able to go home in no time . you know , i guess ... i guess all i really needed was to make myself work at it , and i needed a reason to do that . and that 's you . you 're the reason . olivia : well , i 'm just beyond words . phillip : i bet . pretty exciting , huh ? olivia : yeah , it is . still , you know , you do n't want to push it . things are fine at home . emma and i have moved into the house and i seem to be getting along surprisingly well with everyone . phillip : yeah . even with lizzie ? olivia : yes , even with lizzie . so do n't push yourself , all right ? that 's what got you in here in the first place . phillip : oh , i know . ( chuckles ) i 've learned so much in here . olivia : and i want that to continue , i do . i just ... i want you to avoid any stress that might slow down your recovery . phillip : then i guess you 'll just have to make sure you do n't stress me out . frank : of course we would love to have you guys over for dinner . i mean , the girls are old friends . bill : yeah , well , sometimes people would like to forget they 're old friends . frank : yes , i 'm sure the girls would like to forget about their past , but that does n't mean they ca n't be friends . i mean , darci still cares about eden . bill : i 'm sure she does , but what about you , frank . huh ? do you like eden ? frank : yeah . she 's fine , yeah . bill : oh , man . frank : what , are you asking me a loaded question , here ? bill : no , i 'm ... look , i 'm sorry . it 's just ... i love eden s much . i mean , i love the way she 's faced her demons and she 's conquered them . she 's worked so hard to make a new life for herself . frank : well , good for her . she 's lucky to have a guy like you , who acknowledges and appreciates that . bill : see , now that 's another thing right there . everyone says how lucky eden is , but no one ever says how lucky i am to have her . you know ? and she knows that . and i hate that for her . frank : do n't worry about that , bill . it 'll gets easier with time . bill : well , even people like olivia spencer think they have the right to look down on her . frank : olivia ? bill : yeah , i mean , come on , olivia is just as much of an outlaw as eden ever was , so ... frank : funny you should say that . i 've never really pictured olivia as an outlaw . i mean , it 's kind of an interesting image , but ... bill : ( laughs ) frank : to be honest with you , i really do n't put the two girls in the same category . bill : see ? see what i mean ? that 's what i 'm talking about . frank : bill , let me just share a little history with you , here . my family has definitely made its share of mistakes and shame on me if i do n't accept eden for who she is now . you know what i 'm saying ? bill : thank you , frank . i appreciate that . frank : it 's all right . i 've got to get to towers , so i 'll drop off the keys to my daughter . bill : you know , i can take those to marina because i want to swing by and say hi to cassie and tammy anyway , so ... frank : all right . thank you . bill : you got it . frank : bill ? bill : hm ? frank : i meant what i said about eden . bill : thank you , and you 're right . everyone deserves the opportunity to forget about their past . joey : tammy 's always thinking that i 'm not good enough for her . and you know what ? she 's so great that sometimes i start thinking that , too , but tonight was going to be the night where i show her that i could be the guy that she wants , you know ? with the play and the song . like in the movies , you know ? she drags me to all these chick flicks and there 's always this big , hopeless romantic gesture scene . and this was it . this was going to be our scene tonight . lizzie : well , um , the show must go on . joey : what ? lizzie : that 's what sandy told us before the curtain went up tonight : that even if you mess up or you flub up on a line that you have to embrace the unexpected . joey : yeah , well , that might work in the play , but , i mean , how can i sing to a girl who 's not even here ? lizzie : well , you can sing to a girl who is here . just think of it as the dress rehearsal and i 'll be the stand- in . cassie : hey . edmund : oh , hey . cassie : so , did you find tammy ? edmund : yes , i did . i did . and then i lost her again . cassie , there 's something ... joey : hi , everyone . can i have your attention , please ? i had something special prepared for my leading lady tonight , but unfortunately , she had to go . but a friend of mine said i should go ahead and do it anyway . i mean , why not ? practice makes perfect , right , sandy ? sandy : oh , yeah . we know how you love those long rehearsals , lupo . joey : ( laughs ) well , here we go . tammy , this one 's for you . and you can tell everybody this is your song it may be quite simple but now that it 's done i hope you do n't mind i hope you do n't mind that i put down in words how wonderful life is now you 're in the world i sat on the roof and i kicked off the moss well some of these verses well , they got me quite cross but the sun 's been kind while i wrote this song it 's for people like you that keep them turned on so excuse me forgetting but these things i do you see i 've forgotten if they 're green or they 're blue oh , i well , the thing is what i really mean yours are the sweetest eyes i 've ever seen . ( cheers and applause ) olivia : i do n't want to stress you out . how could you even think that knowing that it could risk your recovery ? phillip : is that a rhetorical question ? ( laughing ) i 'm kidding . i 'm kidding . i guess i just feel so good , i 'm a little giddy . olivia : i know . i know that you ca n't wait to get out of here . i do n't want you to come to this prematurely . phillip : no . the sooner the better . the sooner the better . you 're going to need my help at the house . olivia : why would you say that ? phillip : i know my family . i know you 're bound to have problems with alan and alexandra . you should n't have to go in battle alone . no , we 're man and wife . we 're a team . and we 're going to be a team in a way that we 've never been a team before . running the family , running the company . olivia : well , that 's all i ever wanted , you know , the two of us together . but i would never seriously risk your heath to further my own cause . phillip : you 're really something else . always thinking about me . you 've taken such good care of me , olivia . i ca n't wait for the day that i can take care of you . cassie : gosh , i ca n't believe that tammy missed this . edmund : yeah , it 's a shame . joey did a great job . cassie : where is she ? shayne : i think it 's time for my girl to hit the dance floor . marina : you 're up for dancing ? shayne : not me . not tonight . but the sandman can fill in . sandy : are you saying you want me to dance with your girlfriend ? shayne : i 'm saying that i want my girl to have a good time . and you happen to have the stronger legs at the moment . so ... sandy : you mean , you 're not afraid that i might just sweep her off her feet ? shayne : well , i still have the stronger arms . so if you sweep her off her feet , i 'll just knock you off yours . fair enough ? sandy : ow ! fair enough . well put big brother . what do you say , marina ? marina : i really do n't have to dance , shayne . really . shayne : no , baby , go . marina : i 'm fine right here . shayne : will you go ? i 'm tired of watching these amateurs . go , go . give me this . have fun . cassie : tammy would be loving this . where is she ? beth : so tammy 's boyfriend has quite a voice , huh ? lizzie : yeah , and he 's this total baseball stud . and did you see how great he did in the play ? tammy 's so lucky . if i had joey as my boyfriend ... you know what ? i should probably go congratulate him . beth : lizzie . never mind . lizzie : hey there , rock star . oh , my gosh , you told me you were going to sing . i did n't think it was going to be like that . joey : you liked it ? tammy : it was amazing . i was so impressed . joey : thanks . i 'm really glad that you made me go up there and do it . you catch my little thank you wink ? lizzie : is that what that was ? joey : yeah . lizzie : well , if you ever need any more encouragement for your next performance , you know who to call . you did really great . joey : thanks , lizzie . i just wish tammy saw it , you know . lizzie : yeah , that 's too bad . tammy : usually i write what i need to vent and that 's a lot . but tonight ... tonight i had the most perfect night . so perfect that i 'm afraid if i do n't put it down on paper , i 'll forget how it feels forever . from the moment the curtain went up it 's all been so surreal , like i 'm watching someone else living my life a million times better than i ever could . but it was me up on the stage . it was me getting the applause . it was me out on that balcony . danny : look , you have to understand something . all i wanted was to be the father and the husband you and robbie deserved . i wanted to give you a name ... michelle : do n't even say that . danny : ... that you could be proud of . i did n't think it could hurt us . i did n't think it could hurt me . if i did , do you think i would have felt safe enough to run for office ? and then we got caught up with the campaign and i really convinced myself that what i was doing was for the best . i never dreamed that it would make us vulnerable . never . i 'm sorry . i was wrong . ( door closes ) tammy : next on `` guiding light `` ... danny : i got myself into this situation . i 'm going to get myself out of it on my own . it 's my problem . michelle : yeah , like hell it is . olivia : you know what ? maybe you 're right , darling . maybe time away is just what you need . phillip : as long as it 's not time away from you .Summarize.[/INST]philip gets his first electric terapy but has no memory of it . philip says it feels like his mind is resting which should help him figure out what do about olivia . tammy gives edmund the credit for tammy 's performance . a school review is read at the cast party and everyone 's a hit . bill tells olivia he is engaged to eden . outside the party tammy kisses edmund on the lips then runs out of the party and home to write in her journal . joey is upset tammy wo n't hear his song but lizzie encourages him to do it anyway . joey sings `` your song `` by elton john and dedicateds it to tammy . michelle tells danny some kids picked on robbie at his play date . danny tells michelle he used money from salerno to fund fifth street . olivia is shocked that phillip has improved and tried to tell him not to push too hard .</s>

mimi : because he knows you have no scruples . he does n't have to hide anything . bonnie : that 's a fine thing to say , even if it is true . nonetheless , i 'm not gon na question my son like he 's some kind of criminal . mimi : you just do n't want to confront him because you 're afraid to know the truth . billie : steve , something 's wrong . tell me what it is . steve : you know , my body feels like it 's been run over by a mack truck . billie : i can imagine . steve : and i 'm ... i 'm worried about stephanie . billie : well , she 's gon na be okay . she 's gon na be going home soon , right ? steve : she 's okay physically , but i 'm worried that if something happens to her mom , i do n't think she can take it . you know , she acts all tough on the outside , but underneath that , she 's really just a scared little girl looking for her daddy to make everything better . i have n't been able to do a damn thing to help her or her mother . billie : steve , you 've been sick yourself . what can you do from inside a quarantine unit ? steve : i do n't know . maybe nothing . you know , you ought to go home and get some rest . i 'm feeling tired myself . billie : okay . see you later . steve : see you later . nurse : calling it a night ? billie : no , actually , i 'm gon na go get something to eat , but i 'll be back . nurse : okay . shawn d. : to be honest , i actually really have n't thought about us moving in together . willow : look , i did n't mean to put you on the spot . it 's just with what i make at the restaurant , i ca n't afford a place of my own . and i just thought since you and i get along so great and everything -- well , it 'd be really nice to get out of here , have a little bit more space , a real bathtub and a table to eat at . but i understand . it 's not your problem . shawn d. : i 'm not saying that . you have been really cool to let me stay here , and i want to repay the favor , but i just -- willow : but you ca n't have an ex - hooker living in your apartment . your friends and family would n't understand . so , you know what ? let 's just forget i mentioned it . it was a really stupid idea . shawn d. : come on . that 's not it at all . i do n't care what people think . it 's just that we have n't really talked about having any sort of a future together , and i 'm not in a place -- willow : did you just say future together ? shawn d. : yeah . willow : shawn , it 's not like i asked you to marry me or grow old and gray with me . i 'm just looking for a better place to call home or any place to call home 'cause i never exactly had a real one . i just want a place where i can hang pictures on the wall and cook and have friends over and -- oh , god ! how pathetic do i sound ? i did n't mean to manipulate you with my sob story . let 's just forget about this and you find a beautiful place for you and claire -- shawn d. : i am not gon na forget about it , okay ? i want you to have a nice place -- a place that 's not the `` y. `` we 're gon na look for a place together for the both of us and claire . willow : are you sure ? i did n't just guilt you into this ? shawn d. : no , it 's what i want to do . i think it 'll be great . willow : thank you ! thank you so much . you 're not gon na regret this . bonnie : where are you going ? mimi : to work . i 'm late . bonnie : back to the garage at this hour ? mimi : no , my second job . unlike patrick , i have to work for a living . [ telephone rings ] bonnie : [ speaking indistinctly ] hello ? oh , lauren , hello . how 's our little mother doing ? you know , i was just thinking about you . what do you mean there 's a problem ? do n't tell me there 's something wrong with the baby . steve : thanks , hope . hey , i really appreciate this . hope : you do n't have to thank me . actually , bo and i really -- really enjoyed reliving our memories , our adventures . steve : man , this is great stuff . you got a lot of detail in here , did n't you ? hope : believe it or not , this is just the tip of the iceberg . hey , i tell you what -- i 'll keep writing things down as they come to me , and who knows ? maybe something will jog your memory . it might just take one thing -- the right thing , the right moment , just like with stephanie the other day . steve , you remembered she was your daughter . steve : yeah . but i still did n't remember kayla . i 'll never forget the pain in her eyes when i told her i did n't remember her . i do n't know if i ever will , hope , but i do know that i ca n't walk out on the mother of my child if there 's even a chance i can do something to save her . willow : oh , well , look who decided to stroll in . glad you could make it . mimi : not that it 's any of your business , but i happen to have another job . willow : yeah , shawn told me . you 're working at max 's garage , like that 's not desperate . mimi : what ? willow : well , you 'll obviously do anything to get shawn back , but he does n't need max anymore . he 's out of there . mimi : so i 've heard . and for your information , i 'm working at the garage because i need the money and max happened to have an opening . and as for desperate , at least i would never resort to selling my body . willow : good thing 'cause you 'd probably starve . mimi : yeah , and it 's worked out so well for you , willow . willow : well , a couple of weeks ago , i was living on the streets , and now i 'm getting out of the `` y , `` moving on up . mimi : okay , i 'll bite . where are you going , willow ? hopefully somewhere far away . willow : sorry , i 'll still be here in salem , living with your soon - to - be ex- husband . shawn and i are getting a place together . shawn d. : got some good news . e.j . gave me a bonus , so i can start paying you back for the boat now . bo : hey , shawn -- shawn d. : hey , it 's my fault you lost her , dad . i know how much the fancy face means to you . it 's the least i can do . bo : you 're being responsible , and i 'm proud of you , but i think you should concentrate on taking care of your daughter . shawn d. : with the amount of money i 'm gon na be making , i can take care of all my responsibilities , no problem . bo : how much is wells paying you to work on cars ? bonnie : oh , thank god . you about gave me a heart attack . i thought something happened to the baby . what do you mean it still could ? you know what ? just stay there . i 'm on my way . billie : hey . hope : hi . you 're back . billie : yeah . hope : did you see steve ? billie : yeah , i did . i did . he 's pretty tired , but that 's to be expected with everything he 's going through . hope : well , of course . he 's got an awful lot on his mind . billie : yeah . hope : so , did you like it ? billie : like what ? hope : the necklace . billie : i 'm sorry . i do n't know what you 're talking about . he did n't give me a necklace . hope : i 'm sorry . i just naturally assumed since you 'd seen him -- billie : steve got me a necklace ? hope : well , he had me -- yeah . yeah , he did . he wanted you to have something special . i 'm sorry if i ruined the surprise . billie : no , no , no , no , no , do n't worry about it . i promise i wo n't tell him that you told me . i 'm just -- i 'm thrilled that he thought of me . bo : it seems like wells is paying you a hell of a lot to be a mechanic . i mean , there 's got to be more to this than meets the eye . shawn d. : what can i say ? he knows that i 'm really good at what i do . he wants to keep me around . he offered me an incentive . bo : yeah , right . you know what ? i 'll make you a deal . i find out anything about this character , i 'll let you know . you see or hear anything suspicious at all , you let me know . sound fair ? shawn d. : yeah , whatever . i got to go . bo : hold on . couple more things . number one -- you hang on to your money .. you are one lucky dog . the insurance company -- they 're taking care of the fancy face . and number two -- victor asked me to give this to you . he did n't know where you were staying . shawn d. : i already told him . i do n't want anything from him . bo : shawn , he 's your grandfather . he 's trying to make up for what happened . just take a look , see what it is before you make up your mind . shawn d. : i 'll look at it later . bo : all right . shawn d. : i got to go . bo : okay . good talking with you . mimi : you 're lying . there 's no way in hell shawn would ever get an apartment with you . willow : believe whatever you want , but it 's true . he 's got a totally killer job with e.j . wells , and he wants a nice place for us to live , where claire can come visit on the weekends . mimi : claire ? are you kidding me ? i highly doubt that belle will want her child spending any time with someone so morally lacking , to put it kindly . willow : like you should talk about morals . did n't you lie to your own husband for months to keep him from finding out about his kid ? that is way worse than anything i 've ever done . i never purposely hurt anyone i care about . that includes shawn . patrick : hope you like roast beef . hope : i love it . mmm . i did n't realize how hungry i was until i just saw it . this looks great . thank you . patrick : you 're welcome . you know , i want to take care of you , especially since you have n't been doing such a good job of it yourself lately . hope : i 'm doing the best i can in the middle of a family crisis . patrick : i know you are , but you have to realize that 's not your family anymore , and we have a baby to think about here . hope : i think about the baby every minute . and as far as the brady 's no longer being my family , i think of them that way . i always will . that i ca n't help , patrick . patrick : you know , i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to imply that you should stop caring about what happens to them any more than you can stop caring about what happens bo to . i did interrupt something tonight at the pub , did n't i ? hope : no , just reminiscing about old times with steve and kayla , that 's all . i mean , i do n't know . it kind of made me sentimental . patrick : sure there 's not something you want to tell me ? hope : hmm ? no , nothing to tell you . patrick : okay , well , we 're still going away , right ? hope : going away ? patrick : yeah , chicago , remember ? we were gon na get away from salem , just the two of us , spend some time together . you have n't changed your mind , have you ? mimi : let me tell you something about shawn , willow . in case you do n't already know , his heart belongs to one woman -- belle bblack . and it was knowing that deep down that drove me to do what i did , not that , that excuses it . it does n't . i 'm just telling you how it is . whatever power you have over shawn right now wo n't last , especially not once he 's back in claire 's life because then he 'll be back in belle 's life , too . and at that point , it will only be a matter of time before they 're back together . willow : well , we 'll see about that . mimi : yeah , we will . and you know , shawn might be enjoying the nightly acrobatics you 've been treating him to , but he 's way too smart to let you come between him and his daughter . and he 's too in love with belle to give a damn in the end what happens to you . eventually he 'll toss you out on the curb , just like everyone else has . steve : oh , sweetness . you were right . it happened . in the middle of all this craziness , i got my memory back . [ chuckles ] everything . yeah . how we met , how we fell in love , how you saved my life in more ways than one . you know , stephanie was right . she said that when i remembered you ... i 'd remember how much i needed you . and i do . that 's why you got to get well . you got to come back to me . you hear me , baby ? you hear me ? i 'm waiting . mimi : shawn ! hey . willow and i were just talking about you . she 's so excited about you guys getting a place together . i 'm sure belle will be thrilled , too . shawn d. : stay out of it , mimi , okay ? nothing 's definite yet . willow : hi , baby . what a surprise . what are you doing here ? shawn d. : hey , i just wanted to stop by and see if you needed a ride home from work after your shift . willow : thank you . that is so sweet . i would love a ride home . thank you .. shawn d. : you 're welcome . willow : what 's this ? shawn d. : oh , i almost forgot . my dad gave that to me . he said it 's from my grandfather . willow : well , are n't you gon na open it ? shawn d. : i was n't planning on it . willow : maybe it 's something good . you should at least check it out . shawn d. : what the hell . oh , my god . willow : what is it ? shawn d. : it 's a check for $ 10,000 . bonnie : lauren ! hi . oh , baby . pregnancy agrees with you . god , you 're gorgeous . lauren : i 'm fat , and i 'm miserable . bonnie : well , just think about the wonderful thing that you 're doing . not only are you giving this little angel the gift of life . you are giving it the best possible home it could ever hope for -- its loving grandmama . lauren : i 'm doing it for the money . bonnie : well , do n't think i do n't appreciate that . nothing like a little cold , hard cash to make the giving that much more rewarding . lauren : well , i 'm glad you feel that way , bonnie , because i want more -- a lot more . bonnie : why ? you already made a bundle off the surrogacy contract , not to mention the big , fat check you got from me from our little side deal . lauren : well , due to [ clears throat ] unforeseen complications , i 've been forced to quit my job . bonnie : what complications ? lauren : uh , cankles . yeah , my job requires me to stand all day , and i ca n't . therefore , i 'm gon na require you to support me fully for the duration of this pregnancy in a style to which i am very much looking forward to becoming accustomed . steve : you know , now that i got my memory back , i realize how hard that must have been on you . but that 's gon na be all over now , baby , because when you wake up and you walk out of here , i 'm gon na make up for all the lost time . it 's gon na be just like the old days . okay ? hey , you remember when you gave me that pool cue ? [ laughs ] listen to that . i 'm asking you if you remember . what 's up with that ? yeah , but the pool cue -- that was the first time anyone ever gave me anything for no reason . it was n't even my birthday . it showed me that you accepted me for who i really was . that never happened before , not with anyone . yeah , but that was a hell of a pool cue , man . i won a lot of money with that stick . oh -- oh , but the best was when we played for 10 kisses . do you remember that ? remember how everyone cheered when you lost [ laughs ] and how i just happened to lose count when collecting my winnings ? and you said it was the best game you ever lost . i said it was the best game i ever won . sweetness , there 's a lot more kisses where those came from . all you have to do is wake up . you hear me ? come and get those kisses . come on . hope : yes , i told you i will . i 'll go to chicago with you , okay ? patrick : good , i think it 's just what you need . it 's what we both need , you know -- just a little time to rest , relax . so , when do you want to go ? hope : i do n't know . you need an answer now ? patrick : well , yeah . hope , i just feel like if we do n't do it now , we may never get the chance . with the baby coming , the timing may be off . look , it 's just a couple of days . i think i deserve that much . hope , come on . stop putting me off . hope : all right . all right , we 'll go as soon as possible , but ... i do n't want bo to know . [ knock on door ] bo : no way . billie : hi . bo : billie . billie : can i come in ? bo : yeah , is there something wrong ? steve and kay okay ? billie : steve 's fine . kayla 's condition has n't changed , but the one thing i was afraid of that could happen happened . bo : what are you talking about ? billie : he remembered her . he remembered kayla . i heard him tell her . he remembered how much he loved her . he remembered their life together . he called her sweetness and told her that he needed her . bo : so it worked . billie : what worked ? bo : steve asked us to tell him some things that might trigger his memory .. sorry . billie : no . you warned me this was gon na happen . i did n't listen . bo : hey -- billie : okay . bo : sorry . billie : i 'm okay . willow : do you have any idea what this means ? this means we can get an even better place to live , maybe a house . shawn d. : it 's not that much money , willow . besides , i 'm not keeping it . willow : not keeping it ? why not ? shawn d. : because my grandfather thinks he can just buy anyone off for a price , make any problem go away . but not this time . no check is gon na make up for the fact that he knew that claire was mine from almost day one . nothing in the world will ever make that go away . bonnie : lauren , come on . let 's get real here . you 've got a bun in the oven . you 're gon na have swollen ankles . hell , you 're gon na have swollen everything . so why do n't we just talk to your employer and work out some kind of arrangement ? lauren : the only arrangement i 'm interested in is ours . you either cough up the dough so i can get off my feet or you can say goodbye to your grandchild . it 's that simple .. bonnie : will this do ? lauren : that 's a start . patrick : hope , why do you care if bo finds out ? you said yourself he 's going to have to deal with the fact that we are having a baby , that we are going to be spending time together . hope : i know that , and that 's true . but he 's dealing with so much right now . i do n't want to upset him any more than he already is . so , that 's my one stipulation , okay ? you have to promise me that this little trip stays just between us -- no one else . patrick : fine . if that 's what you want , that 's what you get . you have my word . hope : thank you . patrick : all right . so , how soon before you think we can go away ? hope : oh , my god , patrick . we 'll go as soon as i know that kayla 's okay . i 'm not going anywhere while i know she 's fighting for her life . that 's just -- patrick : you know what ? you 're right . i 'm sorry . i just -- i got excited .. look , in the meantime , i 'll make arrangements . i want to make sure everything 's perfect -- only the best . hope : well , do n't go crazy . i do n't want you spending all your money on me , okay ? patrick : do n't worry . i 've got plenty of cash stashed away , and i ca n't think of a better thing to spend it on . what the hell ? hope : what 's wrong ? patrick : i do n't know . my cash -- it 's gone . billie : you know , i knew this could happen . i just -- i just did n't think it was gon na happen so soon , you know ? we were getting so close , getting closer . he just told me that he cared about me . bo : sorry . hey , if it 's any consolation , i just got blown off , too . i mean , hope and i are talking about those memories . i thought -- guess who walks in . she 's probably over at his place now . billie : you know , i thought you guys could work this out . bo : [ exhales sharply ] i thought so , too , but maybe i 've just been kidding myself . billie : oh , come on . i am the one who wrecked your marriage . this is my fault . i 'm surprised you 're still even talking to me . you should hate me . bo : no , come on . i do n't hate you . billie : i hate me . bo : stop it . do n't say things like that . steve : and then there was australia . man , we had to go halfway around the world to rescue our baby girl from that ... looney tune sheila . yeah . well , but we did it . we broke you out of jail , hooked up with bo and hope , and we did it . you know , kayla , nothing could keep you away from your family . do n't give up on us now , now that we 've got so much to look forward to . you know , i 'm thinking of that song that you love so much . yeah . if i had my harp here , i 'd play it for you . i do n't know . i 'm not much of a voice , but i guess it goes something like this . [ humming to the tune of `` the rose `` ] how 's that go ? [ continues humming ] that drowns .... [ continues humming ] just ... remember in the winter far beneath the bitter snows lies the seed that with the sun 's love in the spring becomes the rose kayla ? nick : dune , get ready for the fallonator ! come on ! let 's get jiggy with it ! kayla : i ca n't get through this without you . patrick : i want you to trust that i will be there for you and the baby , no matter what . bo : kind of come full circle . become friends again after all these years ..

<s>[INST] bonnie : oh , i thought i heard someone . hey , baby girl . mimi : hi , mom . bonnie : oh , my goodness . what the heck is all that ? mimi : those are max 's ledgers from the garage . they 're a total mess . bonnie : wow . mimi : is that a new dress ? bonnie : yes , you like ? mimi : i thought you said you were broke . bonnie : please , give me a break . i may not have thousands of dollars just laying around to foot the bill for your car repairs , but i think i can still take advantage of a lousy factory - outlet sale . caroline : how about this ? you tell the truth totally and completely . try it for one week . mimi : no , mom , actually , the dress is really awful . bonnie : excuse me ? mimi : the print is horrendous . the cut is unflattering , and the green in the dress kind of makes your skin look green . bonnie : please do n't hold back . tell me how you really feel . mimi : you said you wanted my honest opinion . bonnie : you 're right . i did . i did . oh . right . this is horrible . it 's just been so long since i had anything new , i just could n't resist . mimi : i still do n't understand where your money is going . bonnie : like i told you , i 'm having a cash - flow problem . business at alice 's has been down , and what little money i have left after i pay all the bills is going towards an investment for the future . mimi : crazy . here you and i are working our tails off , and we 've got nothing . meanwhile , patrick does nothing , and he 's loaded . bonnie : whoa . whoa ! what do you mean patrick has money ? since when ? shawn d. : not bad for an hour 's work , huh ? willow : you made all of this in an hour ? shawn d. : oh , and there is more where that came from . willow : and where is that exactly ? shawn d. : e.j . wells . you were right , willow . it was the perfect place to go looking for a job , and you wo n't believe what i had to do to get that . willow : knock somebody around ? shawn d. : nope . all i had to do was deliver stuff between him and some guy named patrick lockhart . willow : really ? shawn d. : mm - hmm . willow : what kind of stuff were you delivering ? shawn d. : i do n't know . but it was just an envelope today . the way that i look at it is that for 500 bucks a pop , i can afford not to know exactly . my dad said i could n't trust him . but i mean , come on , all right ? this guy e.j . -- he 's an international celebrity . it 's not like he 's gon na be some criminal . he 's paying me for my time . i 'm on call 24 - 7 . willow : well , baby , you are in the money now , and you can take care of your little girl just the way you like . shawn d. : and i can prove to everybody , including belle , that i am worthy of being claire 's father . the first thing i 'm gon na do is i 'm gon na get a place big enough for a nursery . and it 's gon na be nice , and it 's gon na be in a great part of town . willow : that sounds great . i just have one question . is there room in the apartment for me ? billie : steve ... steve : hey . i was n't sure you were coming back . did you get kayla 's folks home all right ? billie : i sure did . and of course i came back . i 'm gon na be here until you get better , which should be soon , right ? the doctors said it should be soon . steve : well , yeah , as soon as they 're sure i 'm not a walking chemical spill . billie : i can not wait to be able to touch you . hey ... what 's the matter ? what 's wrong ? hope : we really did have some great times together , did n't we , the four of us -- you and me and steve and kayla ? bo : mm - hmm . we sure did . hope : seems like just yesterday , like no time has passed at all . yet so much has changed , happened . it hurts to look back . bo : fancy face , it 's not too late for us . we can still get back what we once had . we can . like sands through the hourglass , so are the days of our lives . bo : man . never fails . hope : please , do n't make a scene . no matter what , patrick is going to be a part of my life , always will be . i 'm having his baby . and besides , i do need to speak to him . bo : now ? hope : do you mind , please ? we have some unfinished business . just -- bo : fine , do what you got to do . hope : hey . patrick : hey . hope : hi . patrick : sorry . i did n't mean to interrupt . i 've been looking everywhere for you . you have n't returned my calls . hope : yeah , i know . i 'm sorry . i 've meant to return your calls . i have . i 've just been so busy running back and forth to the hospital . actually , i really need to get back there to see steve . patrick : why do n't i take you ? it 'll give us a chance to talk . hope : oh , patrick , i do n't know . patrick : come on , i promise . it wo n't take that long . i just need a few minutes . hope : all right . let me just tell bo that -- that i 'm leaving . bonnie : answer me , meems . what makes you think patrick 's got money ? mimi : because i saw it . bonnie : saw what ? mimi : this . i saw this . bonnie : holy crap . that 's a hell of a lot of lettuce . mimi : told you . but where do you think he got it ? bonnie : who cares where he got it ? what are you so worried about ? mimi : i 'm worried because bo is still watching his every move . and what if patrick is in some kind of trouble ? bonnie : oh , he 's not . besides , if you 're so concerned , why do n't you just ask him where he got the money ? mimi : i did , but he gave me some lame excuse about investments paying off . bonnie : maybe it 's true . mimi : i know my brother . he was lying to me . maybe you should talk to him . he might tell you what 's going on . bonnie : and why would he do that ? mimi : because he knows you have no scruples . he does n't have to hide anything . bonnie : that 's a fine thing to say , even if it is true . nonetheless , i 'm not gon na question my son like he 's some kind of criminal . mimi : you just do n't want to confront him because you 're afraid to know the truth . billie : steve , something 's wrong . tell me what it is . steve : you know , my body feels like it 's been run over by a mack truck . billie : i can imagine . steve : and i 'm ... i 'm worried about stephanie . billie : well , she 's gon na be okay . she 's gon na be going home soon , right ? steve : she 's okay physically , but i 'm worried that if something happens to her mom , i do n't think she can take it . you know , she acts all tough on the outside , but underneath that , she 's really just a scared little girl looking for her daddy to make everything better . i have n't been able to do a damn thing to help her or her mother . billie : steve , you 've been sick yourself . what can you do from inside a quarantine unit ? steve : i do n't know . maybe nothing . you know , you ought to go home and get some rest . i 'm feeling tired myself . billie : okay . see you later . steve : see you later . nurse : calling it a night ? billie : no , actually , i 'm gon na go get something to eat , but i 'll be back . nurse : okay . shawn d. : to be honest , i actually really have n't thought about us moving in together . willow : look , i did n't mean to put you on the spot . it 's just with what i make at the restaurant , i ca n't afford a place of my own . and i just thought since you and i get along so great and everything -- well , it 'd be really nice to get out of here , have a little bit more space , a real bathtub and a table to eat at . but i understand . it 's not your problem . shawn d. : i 'm not saying that . you have been really cool to let me stay here , and i want to repay the favor , but i just -- willow : but you ca n't have an ex - hooker living in your apartment . your friends and family would n't understand . so , you know what ? let 's just forget i mentioned it . it was a really stupid idea . shawn d. : come on . that 's not it at all . i do n't care what people think . it 's just that we have n't really talked about having any sort of a future together , and i 'm not in a place -- willow : did you just say future together ? shawn d. : yeah . willow : shawn , it 's not like i asked you to marry me or grow old and gray with me . i 'm just looking for a better place to call home or any place to call home 'cause i never exactly had a real one . i just want a place where i can hang pictures on the wall and cook and have friends over and -- oh , god ! how pathetic do i sound ? i did n't mean to manipulate you with my sob story . let 's just forget about this and you find a beautiful place for you and claire -- shawn d. : i am not gon na forget about it , okay ? i want you to have a nice place -- a place that 's not the `` y. `` we 're gon na look for a place together for the both of us and claire . willow : are you sure ? i did n't just guilt you into this ? shawn d. : no , it 's what i want to do . i think it 'll be great . willow : thank you ! thank you so much . you 're not gon na regret this . bonnie : where are you going ? mimi : to work . i 'm late . bonnie : back to the garage at this hour ? mimi : no , my second job . unlike patrick , i have to work for a living . [ telephone rings ] bonnie : [ speaking indistinctly ] hello ? oh , lauren , hello . how 's our little mother doing ? you know , i was just thinking about you . what do you mean there 's a problem ? do n't tell me there 's something wrong with the baby . steve : thanks , hope . hey , i really appreciate this . hope : you do n't have to thank me . actually , bo and i really -- really enjoyed reliving our memories , our adventures . steve : man , this is great stuff . you got a lot of detail in here , did n't you ? hope : believe it or not , this is just the tip of the iceberg . hey , i tell you what -- i 'll keep writing things down as they come to me , and who knows ? maybe something will jog your memory . it might just take one thing -- the right thing , the right moment , just like with stephanie the other day . steve , you remembered she was your daughter . steve : yeah . but i still did n't remember kayla . i 'll never forget the pain in her eyes when i told her i did n't remember her . i do n't know if i ever will , hope , but i do know that i ca n't walk out on the mother of my child if there 's even a chance i can do something to save her . willow : oh , well , look who decided to stroll in . glad you could make it . mimi : not that it 's any of your business , but i happen to have another job . willow : yeah , shawn told me . you 're working at max 's garage , like that 's not desperate . mimi : what ? willow : well , you 'll obviously do anything to get shawn back , but he does n't need max anymore . he 's out of there . mimi : so i 've heard . and for your information , i 'm working at the garage because i need the money and max happened to have an opening . and as for desperate , at least i would never resort to selling my body . willow : good thing 'cause you 'd probably starve . mimi : yeah , and it 's worked out so well for you , willow . willow : well , a couple of weeks ago , i was living on the streets , and now i 'm getting out of the `` y , `` moving on up . mimi : okay , i 'll bite . where are you going , willow ? hopefully somewhere far away . willow : sorry , i 'll still be here in salem , living with your soon - to - be ex- husband . shawn and i are getting a place together . shawn d. : got some good news . e.j . gave me a bonus , so i can start paying you back for the boat now . bo : hey , shawn -- shawn d. : hey , it 's my fault you lost her , dad . i know how much the fancy face means to you . it 's the least i can do . bo : you 're being responsible , and i 'm proud of you , but i think you should concentrate on taking care of your daughter . shawn d. : with the amount of money i 'm gon na be making , i can take care of all my responsibilities , no problem . bo : how much is wells paying you to work on cars ? bonnie : oh , thank god . you about gave me a heart attack . i thought something happened to the baby . what do you mean it still could ? you know what ? just stay there . i 'm on my way . billie : hey . hope : hi . you 're back . billie : yeah . hope : did you see steve ? billie : yeah , i did . i did . he 's pretty tired , but that 's to be expected with everything he 's going through . hope : well , of course . he 's got an awful lot on his mind . billie : yeah . hope : so , did you like it ? billie : like what ? hope : the necklace . billie : i 'm sorry . i do n't know what you 're talking about . he did n't give me a necklace . hope : i 'm sorry . i just naturally assumed since you 'd seen him -- billie : steve got me a necklace ? hope : well , he had me -- yeah . yeah , he did . he wanted you to have something special . i 'm sorry if i ruined the surprise . billie : no , no , no , no , no , do n't worry about it . i promise i wo n't tell him that you told me . i 'm just -- i 'm thrilled that he thought of me . bo : it seems like wells is paying you a hell of a lot to be a mechanic . i mean , there 's got to be more to this than meets the eye . shawn d. : what can i say ? he knows that i 'm really good at what i do . he wants to keep me around . he offered me an incentive . bo : yeah , right . you know what ? i 'll make you a deal . i find out anything about this character , i 'll let you know . you see or hear anything suspicious at all , you let me know . sound fair ? shawn d. : yeah , whatever . i got to go . bo : hold on . couple more things . number one -- you hang on to your money .. you are one lucky dog . the insurance company -- they 're taking care of the fancy face . and number two -- victor asked me to give this to you . he did n't know where you were staying . shawn d. : i already told him . i do n't want anything from him . bo : shawn , he 's your grandfather . he 's trying to make up for what happened . just take a look , see what it is before you make up your mind . shawn d. : i 'll look at it later . bo : all right . shawn d. : i got to go . bo : okay . good talking with you . mimi : you 're lying . there 's no way in hell shawn would ever get an apartment with you . willow : believe whatever you want , but it 's true . he 's got a totally killer job with e.j . wells , and he wants a nice place for us to live , where claire can come visit on the weekends . mimi : claire ? are you kidding me ? i highly doubt that belle will want her child spending any time with someone so morally lacking , to put it kindly . willow : like you should talk about morals . did n't you lie to your own husband for months to keep him from finding out about his kid ? that is way worse than anything i 've ever done . i never purposely hurt anyone i care about . that includes shawn . patrick : hope you like roast beef . hope : i love it . mmm . i did n't realize how hungry i was until i just saw it . this looks great . thank you . patrick : you 're welcome . you know , i want to take care of you , especially since you have n't been doing such a good job of it yourself lately . hope : i 'm doing the best i can in the middle of a family crisis . patrick : i know you are , but you have to realize that 's not your family anymore , and we have a baby to think about here . hope : i think about the baby every minute . and as far as the brady 's no longer being my family , i think of them that way . i always will . that i ca n't help , patrick . patrick : you know , i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to imply that you should stop caring about what happens to them any more than you can stop caring about what happens bo to . i did interrupt something tonight at the pub , did n't i ? hope : no , just reminiscing about old times with steve and kayla , that 's all . i mean , i do n't know . it kind of made me sentimental . patrick : sure there 's not something you want to tell me ? hope : hmm ? no , nothing to tell you . patrick : okay , well , we 're still going away , right ? hope : going away ? patrick : yeah , chicago , remember ? we were gon na get away from salem , just the two of us , spend some time together . you have n't changed your mind , have you ? mimi : let me tell you something about shawn , willow . in case you do n't already know , his heart belongs to one woman -- belle bblack . and it was knowing that deep down that drove me to do what i did , not that , that excuses it . it does n't . i 'm just telling you how it is . whatever power you have over shawn right now wo n't last , especially not once he 's back in claire 's life because then he 'll be back in belle 's life , too . and at that point , it will only be a matter of time before they 're back together . willow : well , we 'll see about that . mimi : yeah , we will . and you know , shawn might be enjoying the nightly acrobatics you 've been treating him to , but he 's way too smart to let you come between him and his daughter . and he 's too in love with belle to give a damn in the end what happens to you . eventually he 'll toss you out on the curb , just like everyone else has . steve : oh , sweetness . you were right . it happened . in the middle of all this craziness , i got my memory back . [ chuckles ] everything . yeah . how we met , how we fell in love , how you saved my life in more ways than one . you know , stephanie was right . she said that when i remembered you ... i 'd remember how much i needed you . and i do . that 's why you got to get well . you got to come back to me . you hear me , baby ? you hear me ? i 'm waiting . mimi : shawn ! hey . willow and i were just talking about you . she 's so excited about you guys getting a place together . i 'm sure belle will be thrilled , too . shawn d. : stay out of it , mimi , okay ? nothing 's definite yet . willow : hi , baby . what a surprise . what are you doing here ? shawn d. : hey , i just wanted to stop by and see if you needed a ride home from work after your shift . willow : thank you . that is so sweet . i would love a ride home . thank you .. shawn d. : you 're welcome . willow : what 's this ? shawn d. : oh , i almost forgot . my dad gave that to me . he said it 's from my grandfather . willow : well , are n't you gon na open it ? shawn d. : i was n't planning on it . willow : maybe it 's something good . you should at least check it out . shawn d. : what the hell . oh , my god . willow : what is it ? shawn d. : it 's a check for $ 10,000 . bonnie : lauren ! hi . oh , baby . pregnancy agrees with you . god , you 're gorgeous . lauren : i 'm fat , and i 'm miserable . bonnie : well , just think about the wonderful thing that you 're doing . not only are you giving this little angel the gift of life . you are giving it the best possible home it could ever hope for -- its loving grandmama . lauren : i 'm doing it for the money . bonnie : well , do n't think i do n't appreciate that . nothing like a little cold , hard cash to make the giving that much more rewarding . lauren : well , i 'm glad you feel that way , bonnie , because i want more -- a lot more . bonnie : why ? you already made a bundle off the surrogacy contract , not to mention the big , fat check you got from me from our little side deal . lauren : well , due to [ clears throat ] unforeseen complications , i 've been forced to quit my job . bonnie : what complications ? lauren : uh , cankles . yeah , my job requires me to stand all day , and i ca n't . therefore , i 'm gon na require you to support me fully for the duration of this pregnancy in a style to which i am very much looking forward to becoming accustomed . steve : you know , now that i got my memory back , i realize how hard that must have been on you . but that 's gon na be all over now , baby , because when you wake up and you walk out of here , i 'm gon na make up for all the lost time . it 's gon na be just like the old days . okay ? hey , you remember when you gave me that pool cue ? [ laughs ] listen to that . i 'm asking you if you remember . what 's up with that ? yeah , but the pool cue -- that was the first time anyone ever gave me anything for no reason . it was n't even my birthday . it showed me that you accepted me for who i really was . that never happened before , not with anyone . yeah , but that was a hell of a pool cue , man . i won a lot of money with that stick . oh -- oh , but the best was when we played for 10 kisses . do you remember that ? remember how everyone cheered when you lost [ laughs ] and how i just happened to lose count when collecting my winnings ? and you said it was the best game you ever lost . i said it was the best game i ever won . sweetness , there 's a lot more kisses where those came from . all you have to do is wake up . you hear me ? come and get those kisses . come on . hope : yes , i told you i will . i 'll go to chicago with you , okay ? patrick : good , i think it 's just what you need . it 's what we both need , you know -- just a little time to rest , relax . so , when do you want to go ? hope : i do n't know . you need an answer now ? patrick : well , yeah . hope , i just feel like if we do n't do it now , we may never get the chance . with the baby coming , the timing may be off . look , it 's just a couple of days . i think i deserve that much . hope , come on . stop putting me off . hope : all right . all right , we 'll go as soon as possible , but ... i do n't want bo to know .

[ scene_break ] lucas : well ? will : well , it 's ... not t. i spoke to him . he did n't send the text message . lucas : you 're sure about that ? he gave you a lot of trouble when you first came out . will : i know , but it 's -- it 's not him . he would n't threaten me with , like , anything like that . so what about the phone ? any -- anything on the phone ? lucas : no , the phone 's a dead end . i told you -- it 's , like , a disposable or something . we ca n't trace it . will : so we just got to -- okay , we just got to work backwards and figure it out . lucas : we got to start with a motive . will : mm - hmm . lucas : are you sure nick did n't send that text ? will : who would do this ? lucas : well , that 's a really good question , because it happened a long time ago , and only a few people know the truth . there 's stefano and ej . will : and there 's mom , and there 's you .

[ gasps ] daniel : thank you . chloe : missing anything important ? daniel : uh , no . no , not really . [ scene_break ] jennifer : i shot myself in the foot because i got so angry because of what chloe planned . hope : you should 've been . jennifer : yeah , i know , but that did n't help me deal well with what actually happened . so i was driving home , and i 'm thinking , `` my gosh , daniel 's right . `` and i lay there all night , thinking i have sunk to chloe 's level . hope : if you think you 're wrong , you should apologize . jennifer : i did . i called the hospital . i left a note saying that i was so sorry . hope : and ? jennifer : nothing . not a word back . [ scene_break ] will : dad , it 's not nick . lucas : and who else has a reason to get you out of the way ? will : i do n't know , but nick is being really great about everything , and he 's totally come around . lucas : i 'll bet he has . sounds like a cover to me , that 's what it sounds like . will : dad , what -- what you 're saying does not make any sense . i 'm sorry , because even if nick wanted to hurt me , he has no idea i shot ej . how would he possibly know that ? [ scene_break ] nick : hey ! i , uh , thought you were working this morning . gabi : i was . what were you listening to ? [ scene_break ] brady : you think i 'm lying ? i do love you . kristen : if you say so . brady : if i say so ? what is wrong with you this morning ? what 's going on ? kristen : you 're holding something back ... about us getting married . brady : kristen , we talked about this . i told you . kristen : i know what you told me . it 's what you have n't told me that i 'm concerned about . you 're keeping something from me . brady : hold on a minute . w - where did -- how did we get from you having a hangover to i 'm in the hot seat all of a sudden ? i mean , that was impressive . how did you do that ? kristen , hey . we talked about this . remember ? if we get married right now , it 's gon na kill any chance of me resurrecting my relationship with my father and marlena . you know that . kristen : that 's not the only reason . brady : you do n't think that 's the only reason ? kristen : you told me it was n't the only reason ? brady : i did ? kristen : yes , you did . brady : no , i did n't . kristen : yes , you did . and when i asked you what was the reason , you said , `` just me . `` that 's what you said . brady : oh ... kristen : unfortunately for you -- brady : no , i was just talking . it did n't mean anything . kristen : i 'm a drunk that actually remembers . brady : hold on a second . kristen : you were putting me off . brady : i was not . i thought it was the booze talking , kristen . come on . oh , come -- look , i want to talk about this some more . i do , but i got to go . i got to get my phone from daniel . i got to go to the office . i do . i got to go . but i want to talk to you about this later . can i see you later , please ? come on . please ? kristen : okay .

[ scene_break ] nick : i 'm just in nerd land . it 's a new speech software . gabi : that sounded just like will . nick : yeah . i guess it kind of did , actually . hey , baby , you do n't -- you do n't look so good . gabi : thanks . i was gon na lay down . that 's why i came up here . nick : mrs. brady sent you up ? gabi : mm - hmm . nick : oh , then you definitely have to lie down . and you did n't sleep last night either . gabi : well , i was -- i do n't know -- i was just thinking about the paternity test . nick : hey . i do n't want you to worry about that , okay ? please . it 's gon na work out for us and our baby . i promise you .

[ scene_break ] jennifer : i just think daniel must still be angry with me . hope : you do n't know that . jennifer : but what other explanation is there ? hope : well , first of all , he does n't have his cell phone . secondly , his child 's sick . he 's probably been up with him all night . jennifer : i know , but there 's a phone at the nurse 's desk . hope : you know what , cuz ? no news is no news . you do n't know what 's going on . are you calling daniel ? jennifer : uh , yes , this is jennifer horton . i left a message last night for dr. jonas . oh ! he just picked them up . okay . no , i already left him one . that 's fine . thank you . uh , daniel just picked his messages up , and he read them . hope : okay . he 's probably still with parker . he 's worried about him . how 's he doing this morning ? jennifer : i do n't know . and even if i called to check , they would n't tell me . i 'm not family . but parker 's okay . that 's not the reason daniel did n't call me , hope . hope : okay , so he 's still upset with you . and you agree he has every right to be , correct ? jennifer : yeah . hope : all right , so maybe you have a little work to do here . you 're okay with that , right ? you do n't have a problem with it . jennifer : no . no . hope : just a little word of advice -- do n't assume daniel 's doing or feeling something ... or someone , for that matter . go , talk to him . find out for yourself , cuz . jennifer : i know . you 're right . and i just want you to live right here on my shoulder , like the smart little angel , and just whisper things in my ear every day , all day . hope : you are so funny . you know what ? this little angel has a `` b `` and `` e `` to solve this morning , so , um ... i 'll have my cell phone on ... jennifer : okay . hope : as usual . and go get 'em , all right ? i 'm rooting for this . jennifer : me too . hope : i love you , cuz . jennifer : love you . hope : mwah . i 'll check with you later . jennifer : okay . hope : thanks for the cookies .

[ scene_break ] nick : stop worrying about the paternity test . you wo n't have to take it . gabi : how can you say that ? you were all for it . nick : i did n't want to make a big thing with sami and will . i think it 's just -- it 's better for now if they think that we 're on will 's side . gabi : well , are n't we ? nick : is that the way it feels to you ? gabi : i think that will 's not gon na be a problem , it 's just his mom is pushing him . nick : or ... it -- it could be sonny . gabi : really ? nick : well , i saw them yesterday at the coffeehouse , and the way they were ... i do n't know . it just -- it feels like it 's possible that sonny 's behind this whole paternity thing . sonny : i 'm gon na be watching you a lot more closely now ... for will 's sake . nick : gabi ? are you okay ? gabi : mm - hmm .

[ scene_break ] jennifer : hello ... again . chloe : yeah , i 'm here . jennifer : is daniel here ? chloe : no . jennifer : how 's parker ? chloe : much better , thank you . but neither one of us wanted to leave him today , obviously , so we 're both spending the day with him . jennifer : yeah , that 's good . i 'm glad you 're doing that . is daniel gon na be back soon ? chloe : i do n't know . do you want to leave him a message ? jennifer : no , i 'll just -- i 'll come back . thank you . chloe : you know what ? stay . um ... there 's something that we should talk about .

[ scene_break ] lucas : you 're really worried about this , are n't you ? will : yeah . lucas : honestly , i do n't think anything 's gon na come of this . it 's just a bunch of empty threats -- that 's all . will : it 's not just a threat , dad . it 's a reminder of what an idiot i can be . i mean , i tried to kill somebody . lucas : so , you know , you tried to kill ej dimera . there 's a whole bunch of us that would want to do that , right ? will : it was a stupid move , and it was irrational . and you ended up paying for it when it should 've been me . lucas : i was not gon na let you go to prison . will : you should -- i ... i should 've . lucas : well , i did n't give you a choice . so , if you want to blame someone , blame me . will : dad , i should 've owned up to what i did ... no matter what you tried to tell me to do . lucas : your mom and i screwed up your life enough . we were n't gon na let you start out with a record too . you did n't deserve this . you 're a good kid . you 're a good man . and you 're gon na be a good dad . will : i want to be . lucas : no , you will be .

[ laughs ] [ scene_break ] kristen : look , i know brady 's keeping something from me . i was pretty sure he was . but now i 'm 100 % sure that he is . stefano : sweetheart , do n't forget what you are keeping from him , huh ? so do n't be like a spoiled wife , all right ? or a hurt wife or even , for that matter , a hurt mistress , okey - dokey ? you have to keep your eye on what you are going to do here , because this is something that you have chosen to do . kristen : i know that . i 'm upset because it means i 'm missing something . i thought that my research was so thorough and i knew everything there was to know about brady . stefano : and so now there 's a mystery , all right ? so bravo , okay ? but do n't get so involved in that that you forget about the prize . kristen : oh , i 'm gon na get it out of him , believe me . then he 's gon na propose , and i 'll probably break his heart before you even get back here . stefano : aha ! so you really were listening , huh ? kristen : unless , of course , you -- maybe you want to watch when it happens . stefano : no , no , no , no . look , you get this over with as soon as possible , okay ? kristen : are you sure you 're ready to come back here ? stefano : why would n't i be ? kristen : because nobody likes you here . you 'll have to run into your ex - wife kate all the time . ugh . stefano : so what ? she 's old news , okay ? as a matter of fact , i do n't even think about her anymore . [ scene_break ] [ kate and rafe laughing ] kate : oh ! both : wow . rafe : oh . okay . so ... i 'm guessing that 's the second mistake . kate : oh , speak for yourself . rafe : really ? kate : really . you know , i can not be held responsible for any of my actions before my second cup of coffee . that 's all i 'm saying . rafe : are you really going with that ? kate : [ scoffs ] rafe : really ? kate : oh , my god . see , you know , this does n't make any sense . this makes no sense whatsoever . we could end up on totally opposite sides of a war . rafe : w - what ? are you talking about gabi and will ? what ? i mean , you said last night , `` no sides . `` what happened to that and ... `` reasonable reasonableness `` ? huh ? kate : i said that , did n't i ? rafe : yeah , you did . kate : oh , god . rafe : yeah . you also said that you were gon na help me with sami . kate : well , you know , we both know the odds of that working out .

lucas met will in the park to talk about the text he received about will shooting ej . lucas thought will should be suspicious of nick . will explained that nick has been great and they were getting along . lucas was n't so sure . lucas also suspected ej of sending the text . will did n't think he did it , but he thought sami might have sent the text . lucas assured will that sami did n't know anything about it . gabi nearly caught nick listening to will and lucas talking . jennifer talked with hope about what happened with daniel . chloe wanted to go out with daniel . jennifer called the hospital again and found out that daniel picked up his messages and read them . kristen was up to her tricks again trying to convince brady to marry her . rafe and kate were surprised to wake up next to each other . lucas and will continued to talk about who sent the text and whether the person had any proof yet . nick planted seeds of doubt in gabi 's head about sonny . they talked about gabi getting the paternity test . nick did n't really want her to take it , but he did n't want to disagree with will right now . nick made it seem like sonny wanted will to get the paternity test . chloe was at daniel 's apartment when jennifer showed up .

[ gasps ] daniel : thank you . chloe : missing anything important ? daniel : uh , no . no , not really . [ scene_break ] jennifer : i shot myself in the foot because i got so angry because of what chloe planned . hope : you should 've been . jennifer : yeah , i know , but that did n't help me deal well with what actually happened . so i was driving home , and i 'm thinking , `` my gosh , daniel 's right . `` and i lay there all night , thinking i have sunk to chloe 's level . hope : if you think you 're wrong , you should apologize . jennifer : i did . i called the hospital . i left a note saying that i was so sorry . hope : and ? jennifer : nothing . not a word back . [ scene_break ] will : dad , it 's not nick . lucas : and who else has a reason to get you out of the way ? will : i do n't know , but nick is being really great about everything , and he 's totally come around . lucas : i 'll bet he has . sounds like a cover to me , that 's what it sounds like . will : dad , what -- what you 're saying does not make any sense . i 'm sorry , because even if nick wanted to hurt me , he has no idea i shot ej . how would he possibly know that ? [ scene_break ] nick : hey ! i , uh , thought you were working this morning . gabi : i was . what were you listening to ?

[ scene_break ] jennifer : i just think daniel must still be angry with me . hope : you do n't know that . jennifer : but what other explanation is there ? hope : well , first of all , he does n't have his cell phone . secondly , his child 's sick . he 's probably been up with him all night . jennifer : i know , but there 's a phone at the nurse 's desk . hope : you know what , cuz ? no news is no news . you do n't know what 's going on . are you calling daniel ? jennifer : uh , yes , this is jennifer horton . i left a message last night for dr. jonas . oh ! he just picked them up . okay . no , i already left him one . that 's fine . thank you . uh , daniel just picked his messages up , and he read them . hope : okay . he 's probably still with parker . he 's worried about him . how 's he doing this morning ? jennifer : i do n't know . and even if i called to check , they would n't tell me . i 'm not family . but parker 's okay . that 's not the reason daniel did n't call me , hope . hope : okay , so he 's still upset with you . and you agree he has every right to be , correct ? jennifer : yeah . hope : all right , so maybe you have a little work to do here . you 're okay with that , right ? you do n't have a problem with it . jennifer : no . no . hope : just a little word of advice -- do n't assume daniel 's doing or feeling something ... or someone , for that matter . go , talk to him . find out for yourself , cuz . jennifer : i know . you 're right . and i just want you to live right here on my shoulder , like the smart little angel , and just whisper things in my ear every day , all day . hope : you are so funny . you know what ? this little angel has a `` b `` and `` e `` to solve this morning , so , um ... i 'll have my cell phone on ... jennifer : okay . hope : as usual . and go get 'em , all right ? i 'm rooting for this . jennifer : me too . hope : i love you , cuz . jennifer : love you . hope : mwah . i 'll check with you later . jennifer : okay . hope : thanks for the cookies .

[ scene_break ] nick : stop worrying about the paternity test . you wo n't have to take it . gabi : how can you say that ? you were all for it . nick : i did n't want to make a big thing with sami and will . i think it 's just -- it 's better for now if they think that we 're on will 's side . gabi : well , are n't we ? nick : is that the way it feels to you ? gabi : i think that will 's not gon na be a problem , it 's just his mom is pushing him . nick : or ... it -- it could be sonny . gabi : really ? nick : well , i saw them yesterday at the coffeehouse , and the way they were ... i do n't know . it just -- it feels like it 's possible that sonny 's behind this whole paternity thing . sonny : i 'm gon na be watching you a lot more closely now ... for will 's sake . nick : gabi ? are you okay ? gabi : mm - hmm .

[ laughs ] [ scene_break ] kristen : look , i know brady 's keeping something from me . i was pretty sure he was . but now i 'm 100 % sure that he is . stefano : sweetheart , do n't forget what you are keeping from him , huh ? so do n't be like a spoiled wife , all right ? or a hurt wife or even , for that matter , a hurt mistress , okey - dokey ? you have to keep your eye on what you are going to do here , because this is something that you have chosen to do . kristen : i know that . i 'm upset because it means i 'm missing something . i thought that my research was so thorough and i knew everything there was to know about brady . stefano : and so now there 's a mystery , all right ? so bravo , okay ? but do n't get so involved in that that you forget about the prize . kristen : oh , i 'm gon na get it out of him , believe me . then he 's gon na propose , and i 'll probably break his heart before you even get back here . stefano : aha ! so you really were listening , huh ? kristen : unless , of course , you -- maybe you want to watch when it happens . stefano : no , no , no , no . look , you get this over with as soon as possible , okay ? kristen : are you sure you 're ready to come back here ? stefano : why would n't i be ? kristen : because nobody likes you here . you 'll have to run into your ex - wife kate all the time . ugh . stefano : so what ? she 's old news , okay ? as a matter of fact , i do n't even think about her anymore .

[ cell phone rings ] abby : ben , hey . stitch : hey , where are you ? abby : work . why ? stitch : did you forget we have an appointment with the fertility doctor today ? abby : i 'm sorry . yeah . things have been insane here at work . i mean , i do n't even think i 'll be able to squeeze in lunch . stitch : abby , this is important . if you leave now , you could probably still make it . abby : no , no , that wo n't work . i should probably just cancel . i mean , i 'm right in the middle of something . it 's a big project and , um ... i really -- i ca n't make it . stitch : then we 'll reschedule . fine . abby : ben . stitch : i thought we agreed it 's urgent we make sure there 's no underlying issues with us trying to get pregnant again . abby : we did . um , i will handle it . i will call the doctor and work it out . i 'll talk to you later . [ sighs ] summer : so , that 's how you 're fixing problems with your husband . by lying to him ? nick : do n't worry , dude . i 'm gon na fix this up for you and it 'll be rolling in no time . chelsea : you know , you do n't have to worry about fixing the truck . connor 's got plenty of toys . nick : promise is a promise . chelsea : thanks for coming with us to the park . it 's beautiful , is n't it ? and connor really loves it here . adam and i , we used to bring him all the time , so i feel like he thinks -- nick ? hey , what is it ? tell me what 's wrong . nick : i 'm -- i 'm fine . chelsea : you 're fine ? that 's it ? you 're not gon na tell me what that was about ? you 're upset , nick . nick : we were just , you know , we 're near the playground . i guess i got a little sand in my eye or something . chelsea : that is the lamest excuse i have ever heard . nick : that 's the lamest excuse you 've ever heard ? i mean -- chelsea : yeah . nick : you have n't heard anything yet . i can come up with 50 that are better than that . that commercial where the kids grow up too fast -- i mean , that gets me every time . the one with the dogs ? it 's a crusher . chelsea : okay , you know what ? what happened to , um , straight - talking nick ? the guy that just says how he feels ? is that not you ? nick : [ sighs ] i guess not always , no . chelsea : you know , if you 're gon na be there for connor like you promised adam and you 're gon na be a friend to me , we have to be able to talk . nick : you 're right . chelsea : okay , so ... want to tell me what 's going on ? nick : honestly , it 's this truck . [ chuckles ] noah had one a lot like this when he was about his age . and i guess it just reminded me how much i was looking forward to having another son when christian was born . i made a lot of mistakes with noah , and i was determined not to make them again . i guess it just ... reminds me how much i miss christian . you think i 'm crazy , do n't you ? chelsea : yeah , i think you 're totally out of your mind . no ! what are you talking about ? are you kidding ? it happens to me all the time . the strangest moments . nick : just random ? chelsea : yeah . like this morning when i was getting coffee . i went to my cupboard , i pulled two mugs out . i almost went to pour the second one . nick : adam 's cup . chelsea : and i just froze . nick : yeah , i know . those feelings come back of pain and missing him . it 's like brand new . chelsea : god , it just hurts . it 's like a physical ache inside . everything 's normal for a while , and then bam , you 're back in that moment when you lost him . you relive the pain and the -- the terror and ... nick : and the loss . [ sighs ] i did n't want to tell you what was bothering me 'cause ... i was embarrassed . chelsea : really ? nick : yeah . uh , you know , i 've been going through this a lot longer than you have . christian died a year ago . sage was six months . and i guess i just do n't feel like i should be getting torn up about this in front of you . chelsea : that 's ridiculous . i 'm glad you got over that because if we 're gon na make this work and , you know , you 're gon na be there for connor , we really do have to be able to talk . as far as i 'm concerned , you have absolutely nothing to be embarrassed about , except for the fact that it 's taken you 20 minutes and you still have n't fixed that truck . [ chuckles ] give it . give it to me . let a pro do it . nick : you got a better chance . chelsea : let me show you how it 's done . nick : yeah . chelsea : [ chuckles ] abby : i keep guessing wrong . i think that he wants to break up , and he wants to have a baby . i think that we should work on our marriage before we 're parents , and he schedules me an appointment with a fertility specialist . what do i do ? summer : talk to your husband . abby : i 've tried . he does n't listen . summer : try again . abby : [ sighs ] but ... summer : abby , talk to stitch and do not stop talking and listening until you guys figure out what you 're doing and if you 're doing it together or alone . kevin : whatever you need researched , programmed , or detected , no can do . paul : even for your boss ? kevin : oh . chief , i 'm sorry . i -- paul : look , kevin , there 's something i 've been wanting to talk to you about . um , i heard rumblings last night that you and dylan were involved in , uh , something together . is that true ? kevin : last night ? but -- paul : and the fact that you did n't really answer my question about , uh , the phone call you had with dylan . kevin : well , that 's only because -- paul : begs the question , does this ... thing you 're working on together have anything to do with victor ? kevin : victor ? dylan : yeah . victor newman . i 'm sure you 're familiar with his work . kevin : i am . paul : ironically , it 's the same victor newman that filed a restraining order against dylan . so if dylan is involved in anything that has -- kevin : he 's not . i can absolutely swear to you that that phone call from dylan just now had nothing to do with victor at all . paul : i 'm glad to see that my trust in dylan is justified . [ cell phone rings ] paul : i 'm gon na have to take this , so whatever dylan needs , make sure he gets it . thank you . kevin : but i -- [ sighs ] dylan : hey . is sully okay ? sharon : yeah , he 's fine . i just put him down for his nap . mariah : dylan updated me on the whole situation . a stalker ? that 's insane . do you know who 'd do something like this to you ? sharon : i 'm sure there 's nothing to worry about . the caller hung up the minute dylan got on the phone last night . mariah : and you told him you 're a cop , right ? dylan : i did , yes . sharon : which should take care of that . if i were him , i would go and find someone else who does n't have a detective in the house . mariah : you are being way too mellow about this . i 'm with dylan . stay on the case until the creep is locked up , and i 'll do anything i can to help . dylan : i 'm glad somebody in the family has the right attitude , unlike my wife here , who should be a little more concerned . sharon : well , you worry too much . dylan : yeah , maybe . i 'm gon na head to the station , see what kevin can dig up . you guys make sure the doors and all the windows are locked . sharon : yes , sir . mariah : who would do this to you ? sharon : i know who it is . mariah : what ? who ? sharon : it 's patty , and it 's a disaster . [ laughter ] chelsea : can you get it ? ooh ! oh , right in your lap ! you want to throw it back ? nick : you do it . throw it here . vroooom ! chelsea : whoa ! whoa ! look at the truck coming ! turn him around , turn him around , turn him around . whoo ! oh , my goodness . i do n't get it . how does he keep going ? nick : it 's called being a toddler . chelsea : [ sighs ] true . you know ... if being around him is too much for you ... nick : no . no , actually , it helps . [ sighs ] i guess i 'd like to think that somewhere in heaven , adam 's up there taking care of my little boy . so it 's kind of like we switched places . chelsea : that 's really sweet . nick : you know , christian would be about a year now . who knows ? maybe we would have even had his first birthday here . you and connor would have been here , sully . sometimes when i close my eyes , i can see christian . we 're playing catch in the yard , you know , with the baseball , hitting them grounders , flyballs . my son would have loved baseball . sharon : first there was the gift to faith -- a baby doll without a note . that was a little strange . and then there were the hang - up calls to the house . and if that was n't bad enough , then they started on my cell phone . and that 's when patty revealed herself . mariah : and then she tells you she was the one who sent the doll . you should have known that she would never just drop it . sharon : well , i hoped . but she would n't stop calling and she 's taunting me , mariah , and she ... [ sighs ] mariah : what ? what did she do ? sharon : she reminded me that she knows i was never pregnant . and that 's when dylan picked up the phone . mariah : but she did n't say anything to him . sharon : no . all dylan heard was some breathing . mariah : and that 's how he came to the conclusion that there 's some guy making harassing calls . sharon : but now he 's not going to quit until he finds out where these calls are coming from . mariah : patty 's always been a ticking time bomb . but the good thing is , she 's certifiably nuts , so nobody 's gon na believe -- sharon : that 's the thing that 's really scaring me , mariah . she sounded really lucid this time . mariah : well , to you , but that 's 'cause you know that sully is actually nick 's son . but to anybody else ... sharon : i ca n't just ignore this . i ca n't just hope that patty goes away and that her accusations are dismissed . as soon as dylan finds out that these calls came from where patty 's at , all bets are off ! i ca n't just let this go ! i have to be proactive ! i have to head this off ! mariah : there 's no way for you to do that . sharon : well , you can . mariah : me ? ! sharon : yes . you have a best friend who works down at the station . mariah : you want me to pump kevin for information ? sharon : no , not exactly . just -- just hang out with him , see what you can find out . mariah : [ sighs ] that 's not gon na work . kevin and i -- sharon : you have the perfect reason . you 're worried about me . just go down to the station . you 'll know what kevin finds out the minute he finds it , and then you can text me and let me know if dylan 's getting close . mariah : and what are you gon na do in the meantime ? sharon : i do n't know . i have really nothing to go on except two phone calls from patty . hi , paul . it 's sharon . you know , i was thinking you have n't spent any quality time with your grandson lately . can we get together ? kevin : ah . i know that smell . dylan : yeah . doughnuts from your favorite place . personally , trendy doughnuts are n't my thing . kevin : these are the best doughnuts in the world . dylan : okay , then give me something that i can use and they 're yours . kevin : well , i have n't had much to go on with that number being blocked , but i did have a breakthrough right before you got here and found that the calls to your house are originating from a cell phone . dylan : what 's the num -- what 's the number ? kevin : i do n't have it . dylan : it 's a dead end ? kevin : no , i just need some time . dylan : well , how much time ? kevin : i do n't know how much time ! dylan : okay , one . one . you can have the rest when you give me something . [ computer keys clacking ] stitch : hey . you made it . hey , baby , it 's not too late for the doctor to fill you in . he 's a friend of mine , so i 'll just -- abby : ben , um , wait . uh ... can we talk first ? stitch : sure . what is it ? abby : maybe you should close the door . dylan : you 're getting closer ? kevin : sort of . i breached the cell info trying to triangulate a signal . dylan : okay , i have no idea what that means . kevin : it 's just numbers and coordinates , dylan . each of these hits still has to be cross - checked , and i got other work to do . dylan : what are you talking about ? you -- you ca n't stop . not if this guy 's going after my wife , kevin . mariah : what he said . dylan : hey , mariah . what are you doing here ? did sharon get another call ? mariah : no , no , sharon 's fine . i was just hoping that i could stick around and see if you guys make any progress . dylan : yeah , well , kevin made some headway . we found out the caller 's using a cell phone . mariah : well , that 's a start . dylan : yeah , it 's a good start . but , you know , it 's -- it 's bad enough that i 'm the one looking over kevin 's shoulder , so maybe ... mariah : no , no , no . i promise that i - i wo n't interrupt . i wo n't be a distraction . it 's just knowing that somebody 's out there watching sharon , it 's really scary . kevin : she can stay . i 'm used to mariah hanging around while i 'm working . she wo n't be that much of a distraction . plus she 's worried about her mom . dylan : okay . grab a seat . i 'll get us some coffee . mariah : okay . uh , that was pretty decent of you . i thought you 'd still be mad at me after what i said about chloe at faith 's party . kevin : i ca n't recall . what did you say ? mariah : the thing ab -- [ sighs ] i 'm not falling for that . you know what i said . kevin : something about her being a liar even though you have no idea what she 's lying about . mariah : yeah , that rings a bell . but can we please focus on the stalker thing ? for the record , i 'm still mad at you , but this is more important . kevin : i do n't know if we 're dealing with some harmless loser or someone who might actually be dangerous , but i think the stakes could be pretty high . mariah : the stakes are definitely high . chelsea : you sure you have time for a coffee ? nick : yeah , let 's do it . chelsea : well , look who it is . our matchmaker . nick : yeah , i already told her it was inappropriate , so ... chelsea : okay , well , now it 's my turn . nick : okay . sharon : chelsea . chelsea : just so we 're clear , let me reiterate what nick already told you . suggesting to faith that she try to get us together was wrong on so many levels . sharon : i totally overstepped . chelsea : yeah , you did . sharon : i 'm sorry . you have to know that my heart was in the right place . it was . what can i do to make this right ? nick : i think a promise that you wo n't do it again will be cool with me . how about you ? chelsea : fine . nick : there we go . sharon : you got it ! no more matchmaking . and i will tell faith that was wrong and it was unfair to both of you . nick : all right , we 're good . can i , uh , hold him ? sharon : um ... nick : what 's up ? ! what 's going on , dude ? oh , yeah ! come here ! oh , man ! you got to stop getting so big . look at this guy . he 's a tank . chelsea : [ chuckles ] nick : what 's up ? man , it 's crazy . he reminds me so much of noah when he was this age . sharon : there are some similarities . nick : ba , ba , ba , ba , ba , ba , ba ! sharon : um , so anyway , um , i hear you loud and clear , and i apologize until the end of days , but , um , i just need to know , chelsea , do i still have a job ? chelsea : as long as i can trust you . sharon : okay . you can . nick : all right , well , here you go . sharon : yeah . nick : see you , dude ! see you , bud ! [ cell phone chimes ] nick : you got to let it go . chelsea : i know , i know . it just still bothers me . i feel like sharon does n't recognize that we 're still grieving adam and sage . it 's like now that she has dylan ... nick : actually , i think dylan is the reason why she 's trying to push us together . chelsea : say what ? nick : yeah . look at how things have turned around for her , you know ? all the problems she 's had . her life 's pretty good right now . she 's got a grown daughter that 's a huge part of her life . she 's got a solid marriage with dylan . i mean , she 's got faith , who 's the greatest thing in the world . and then sully 's an awesome little boy . chelsea : so you 're saying that now that she 's happy and carefree ... nick : maybe she 's just trying to spread the joy . chelsea : huh . look at you . i never thought of you as a `` glass half full `` type of guy . nick : eh , well , sometimes . just , you know , trying to cut her some slack . i think sharon just wants everyone to be as happy as she is . paul : oh , i know ! you 're just a smiley little person ! sharon : sully is at such a fun age . we 're having so much fun with him right now . paul : oh , he 's adorable . sharon : [ chuckles ] paul : understandable . yes . sharon : you know , he 's walking and crawling . he 's very speedy , and -- and dylan is just -- he 's overjoyed . you know , everything that sully does dylan thinks he walked on the moon . paul : well , that 's 'cause it 's like that . sharon : [ laughs ] well , i do n't want to keep bragging about myself . i want to hear about you , you and christine . paul : oh , uh , well , she just won a big embezzlement case . i do n't know if you heard , but ... sharon : yeah , that was with the guy who stole $ 2 million from an insurance company ? paul : yeah , just about $ 2 million . and there was evidence to go through . really labor intensive . sharon : i bet you she 's wiped out . paul : oh , yeah . she is . we made a pact , actually , that , uh , maybe after the first snow we 'll fly on out of here to a beach somewhere , maybe sooner if she needs it . sharon : you know , i feel bad asking , but how is patty ? paul : oh , do n't feel badly . no , i - i appreciate your concern . she , um ... [ sighs ] she 's doing as well as could be expected . most of the time she 's in her own world , you know ? sharon : hmm . well , that must be tough on you and your family now that she 's been transferred to that high - security facility . paul : it 's as it should be . patty 's a danger to herself and -- and to , uh , other people , as well . there 's no getting around that . and who knows ? maybe one day she 'll be declared competent . but then she 'd have to stand trial for the murder of dr. anderson , and , well , we 're not exactly wishing for that , either . sharon : understandably . um , have you seen her ? paul : no , not for a while . the doctors told me that i was more of a distraction than a help , and they 're trying a new therapy with her . it 's called art therapy , and they 're hoping that she 's able to express herself more through painting . but she 's pretty unresponsive . i think , i do n't know , it 's like she 's willed herself out of this world . sharon : how sad . paul : there 's really no telling where her mind goes , what she 's feeling , what she 's thinking . [ door opens ] patty , just came to see if you need some more supplies . i can bring you more paints . i 'll be back to check on you . [ door closes ] abby : i need to apologize to you . we 're husband and wife , and at the very least , we owe each other honesty . stitch : [ scoffs ] you think i have n't been honest with you ?

<s>[INST] dylan : come on , are you telling me a blocked caller id 's gon na stop you , kevin ? i need to know who 's calling my house and harassing my wife . kevin : yeah , i get that , dylan , but i am slammed . hold on . dylan : kevin , do n't put me on hol -- sharon : are you getting kevin involved in this ? dylan : yeah , he 's the best . he 's gon na help . sharon : [ sighs ] kevin : sorry about that . i 'm very popular this morning . but like i was saying , i 'm buried with work . dylan : are you kidding me ? we 're talking about my family . kevin : i get that , but -- dylan : kevin , please . i 'll owe you . kevin : maybe , and this is a big blinking neon `` maybe , `` i can spare a few hours later today . dylan : great . great . you get started . i 'll get the warrant from judge ramsey , and i 'll be right there to see what you got . thanks . paul : so , was that dylan ? kevin : yeah , looking for a favor . so i 'll just add it to the quadrillion other things i 'm juggling . paul : right . um , kevin , this sounds like something that , uh , you should fill me in on . dylan : all right , i 'm going in early . sharon : wait ! not until we talk about this . i know you 're worried , but getting people involved at the station ? dylan : stalking is a police matter , sharon . sharon : a couple of phone calls does n't constitute stalking . i think you 're blowing this way out of proportion , honey . dylan : you were terrified after that call last night . sharon : well , that was last night . but since then i 've had a chance to think about it , and maybe it 's not so strange that someone called our home phone first and then my cell phone . you know , both of those numbers are listed on my business card . that caller may have no more connection to me than a piece of paper i dropped somewhere by accident . dylan : i hate to break it to you , but that 's , like , a one in a million chance . okay , if this is a stalker -- sharon : and it might not be . dylan : okay , things could escalate . sharon : or it wo n't . dylan : and it 's not gon na happen . i do n't want my wife feeling unsafe in her own home . that 's it . sharon : i do n't feel unsafe . you make me feel perfectly safe . dylan : well -- mariah : what 's going on ? sharon : nothing ! dylan : your mom has a stalker . mariah : what ? ! well , what are you doing just standing here ? you got to go find that guy and take him down ! abby : when you 're done flagging those sections , that should be it for this morning . you know , if you want to go to campus and check in with your professor , you totally can . what 's so interesting ? summer : it 's just this distribution list that curtis fielding sent us . travis crawford 's name has been added and ... added and ... added . abby : okay , well , that 's no surprise . we knew he was starting today . summer : i 'm glad i 'm just here getting college credits . if i was counting on this place for job security , i would be worried . abby : because of travis ? summer : he will be reporting to grandpa directly . that puts him on the fastest track possible . abby : you do n't like him ? summer : i do n't know . i just have n't decided yet . you ? abby : well , victoria likes him , so that sells it for me . summer : yeah , he 'll be getting aunt vicki 's old office . it 's just , i do n't know , so ...

[ chuckles ] noah had one a lot like this when he was about his age . and i guess it just reminded me how much i was looking forward to having another son when christian was born . i made a lot of mistakes with noah , and i was determined not to make them again . i guess it just ... reminds me how much i miss christian . you think i 'm crazy , do n't you ? chelsea : yeah , i think you 're totally out of your mind . no ! what are you talking about ? are you kidding ? it happens to me all the time . the strangest moments . nick : just random ? chelsea : yeah . like this morning when i was getting coffee . i went to my cupboard , i pulled two mugs out . i almost went to pour the second one . nick : adam 's cup . chelsea : and i just froze . nick : yeah , i know . those feelings come back of pain and missing him . it 's like brand new . chelsea : god , it just hurts . it 's like a physical ache inside . everything 's normal for a while , and then bam , you 're back in that moment when you lost him . you relive the pain and the -- the terror and ... nick : and the loss . [ sighs ] i did n't want to tell you what was bothering me 'cause ... i was embarrassed . chelsea : really ? nick : yeah . uh , you know , i 've been going through this a lot longer than you have . christian died a year ago . sage was six months . and i guess i just do n't feel like i should be getting torn up about this in front of you . chelsea : that 's ridiculous . i 'm glad you got over that because if we 're gon na make this work and , you know , you 're gon na be there for connor , we really do have to be able to talk . as far as i 'm concerned , you have absolutely nothing to be embarrassed about , except for the fact that it 's taken you 20 minutes and you still have n't fixed that truck . [ chuckles ] give it . give it to me . let a pro do it . nick : you got a better chance . chelsea : let me show you how it 's done . nick : yeah . chelsea : [ chuckles ] abby : i keep guessing wrong . i think that he wants to break up , and he wants to have a baby . i think that we should work on our marriage before we 're parents , and he schedules me an appointment with a fertility specialist . what do i do ? summer : talk to your husband . abby : i 've tried . he does n't listen . summer : try again . abby : [ sighs ] but ... summer : abby , talk to stitch and do not stop talking and listening until you guys figure out what you 're doing and if you 're doing it together or alone . kevin : whatever you need researched , programmed , or detected , no can do . paul : even for your boss ? kevin : oh . chief , i 'm sorry . i -- paul : look , kevin , there 's something i 've been wanting to talk to you about . um , i heard rumblings last night that you and dylan were involved in , uh , something together . is that true ? kevin : last night ? but -- paul : and the fact that you did n't really answer my question about , uh , the phone call you had with dylan . kevin : well , that 's only because -- paul : begs the question , does this ... thing you 're working on together have anything to do with victor ? kevin : victor ? dylan : yeah . victor newman . i 'm sure you 're familiar with his work . kevin : i am . paul : ironically , it 's the same victor newman that filed a restraining order against dylan . so if dylan is involved in anything that has -- kevin : he 's not . i can absolutely swear to you that that phone call from dylan just now had nothing to do with victor at all . paul : i 'm glad to see that my trust in dylan is justified . [ cell phone rings ] paul : i 'm gon na have to take this , so whatever dylan needs , make sure he gets it . thank you . kevin : but i -- [ sighs ] dylan : hey . is sully okay ? sharon : yeah , he 's fine . i just put him down for his nap . mariah : dylan updated me on the whole situation . a stalker ? that 's insane . do you know who 'd do something like this to you ? sharon : i 'm sure there 's nothing to worry about . the caller hung up the minute dylan got on the phone last night . mariah : and you told him you 're a cop , right ? dylan : i did , yes . sharon : which should take care of that . if i were him , i would go and find someone else who does n't have a detective in the house . mariah : you are being way too mellow about this . i 'm with dylan . stay on the case until the creep is locked up , and i 'll do anything i can to help . dylan : i 'm glad somebody in the family has the right attitude , unlike my wife here , who should be a little more concerned . sharon : well , you worry too much . dylan : yeah , maybe . i 'm gon na head to the station , see what kevin can dig up . you guys make sure the doors and all the windows are locked . sharon : yes , sir . mariah : who would do this to you ? sharon : i know who it is . mariah : what ? who ? sharon : it 's patty , and it 's a disaster . [ laughter ] chelsea : can you get it ? ooh ! oh , right in your lap ! you want to throw it back ? nick : you do it . throw it here . vroooom ! chelsea : whoa ! whoa ! look at the truck coming ! turn him around , turn him around , turn him around . whoo ! oh , my goodness . i do n't get it . how does he keep going ? nick : it 's called being a toddler . chelsea : [ sighs ] true . you know ... if being around him is too much for you ... nick : no . no , actually , it helps . [ sighs ] i guess i 'd like to think that somewhere in heaven , adam 's up there taking care of my little boy . so it 's kind of like we switched places . chelsea : that 's really sweet . nick : you know , christian would be about a year now . who knows ? maybe we would have even had his first birthday here . you and connor would have been here , sully . sometimes when i close my eyes , i can see christian . we 're playing catch in the yard , you know , with the baseball , hitting them grounders , flyballs . my son would have loved baseball . sharon : first there was the gift to faith -- a baby doll without a note . that was a little strange . and then there were the hang - up calls to the house . and if that was n't bad enough , then they started on my cell phone . and that 's when patty revealed herself . mariah : and then she tells you she was the one who sent the doll . you should have known that she would never just drop it . sharon : well , i hoped . but she would n't stop calling and she 's taunting me , mariah , and she ...

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : what do you mean you found sonny ? did someone shoot him and leave him in the street ? jason : no . we heard a gunshot . so , i ran up to the warehouse to check it out , and i found three armed men holding tj and sonny hostage . i had to do something . elizabeth : you had to do something ? why did n't you call the police ? jason : 'cause there was n't any time to call the police , and , i do n't know , i just reacted , okay ? the kid , tj , was tied to the chair , and sonny was already on the ground . he was bleeding out . elizabeth : so , what did you do ? jason : what did i do ? i killed three men . that 's what i did . elizabeth : how ? did you have a gun ? jason : no , i did n't have a gun , but i took one of theirs eventually . elizabeth : so you were unarmed against three men ? jake , you could have been killed . jason : look , i 'm fine . i did n't get killed . i 'm fine . look at me . i 'm okay , honey . elizabeth : what about tj and sonny ? are they okay ? jason : tj was pretty shaken up , but he 's okay . sonny was bleeding out pretty badly . he 's barely holding on . i did what i could for him while we waited for the ambulance . elizabeth : we ? jason : yeah , like i said , sam was with me . [ scene_break ] sam : patrick . patrick : peace offering ? sam : [ scoffs ] why ? do i need to make one ? patrick : well , it would n't hurt . i tend to react badly when i find out that you could have been shot . sam : i was afraid you would jump to all the wrong conclusions . patrick : did i ? was that not you running alongside sonny 's gurney ? is it just a coincidence that jake 's covered in blood ? sam : no , all of those things happened , but i was never in any danger . patrick : sam , i swear to god , if the next words out of your mouth are `` jake kept me safe , `` my head is gon na explode . sam : [ scoffs ] do you want to hear what actually happened ? or do you just want to be preemptively furious ? patrick : i 'm listening . sam : jake and i were on the pier , and we heard the shooting . and jake told me to stay safe , and i did . patrick : for how long ? sam : long enough that by the time i caught up with him , the shooting was over . patrick : and i 'm gon na assume that jake was involved in the shooting . sam : yes , he -- he was . it was the only way to save sonny and tj . [ scene_break ] julian : you need to get this guy under control . dante : shut up ! okay , you need to ease up . morgan : i 'm not gon na ease up . we know he put dad in the hospital , dante . come on ! dante : we do n't . we have a theory . that 's not the same as proof . morgan : dante , do you not know what 's going on right now ? dad may die , and if he does n't die , he 's never gon na be the same . lulu : what are you talking about ? morgan : patrick said that he has a bullet lodged near his spine , dante . lulu : well , i 'm sure that that is something that patrick can take care of . morgan : he should n't have to take care of that . no one should . dad should be at home celebrating his wedding . and he 's not , and we 're not because of this lying dirt bag ! julian : oh , come on , do n't you think if i had sonny shot , i 'd be as far away as possible ... morgan : it was you ! julian : ... establishing an alibi ? morgan : it was you , okay ! we know that it was him . he 's after dad . it 's our job to protect him . you need to lock this guy up and throw away the key , dante . [ scene_break ] carly : [ sighs ] tj : ms. jacks . carly : hey . tj : i just -- i wanted to say i 'm sorry . carly : for what ? tj : it 's my fault sonny 's hurt . [ scene_break ] michael : everyone 's okay . i know that 's what you care about the most . um , uh , avery 's in her room at the house . [ breathes deeply ] i , uh ... i doubled the guards . i have one right underneath her window . dante 's at the pcpd . he 's trying to figure out who did this , dad . morgan , he went to go let off some steam . [ sniffles ] [ breathes deeply ] krissy -- krissy does n't know , yet . i 'm -- i 'm gon na -- i 'm gon na call her as soon as we get an update . hopefully i can tell her you 're making a full recovery . and , uh , mom , she 's -- she 's right outside . um ... she wants to see you , but she wanted me to come in here first . [ monitor beeping ] michael : [ sighs ] this should n't have happened to you . and i 'm gon na do everything i can ... [ sighs ] ... to make it right . and this probably does n't mean anything to you at this moment , but ... [ sighs ] i love you , dad . [ scene_break ] sam : jake went to tell carly . tj got brought down to the police station to give a statement . i rode in the ambulance with sonny . and when i got here , i would have said something to you , but you were busy saving sonny 's life . i mean , are -- are you still mad at me ? patrick : i just do n't know how many times i 'm gon na have to do this , sam . i love you . i respect what you do . i admire your courage . but it scares the hell out of me that when you hear gunshots , you go running towards them . [ scene_break ] jason : sam called 911 , and she untied tj . i tended to sonny , rolled him over . he was hit pretty bad . there was blood everywhere . something about him was off . he said something that did n't make sense . elizabeth : what do you mean ? jason : he told me that he knew i 'd come . he said that i always do . [ scene_break ] anna : well , as you know , sloane said he would testify that nikolas was complicit in the election tampering . but then when sam and jake confronted nikolas , sloane just denied everything . jordan : but you were so sure that he was gon na hand us nikolas and lomax . why do you think he changed his tune ? anna : i was wrong about sloane . i mean that ... he 's in deeper with nikolas than i thought . [ scene_break ] hayden : wait a second . you did n't actually steal that election , did you ? sloane : oh , yeah . no , he actually did . sorry to burst your bubble , but your benefactor here is not the upstanding citizen he 'd have you believe . hayden : so you both screw over the people of port charles by stealing this election , but nikolas is the one who 's dirty ? how does that work ? nikolas : i 'll tell you . see , ex - commissioner sloane likes to think that he lives on the moral high ground , but in reality , he 's just passing through . i mean , when he first arrived here in port charles , he was a man of justice . but only a few months after that , he sold his principles to mayor lomax . and when that did n't work out , he rented them to me . sloane : i do n't care what you do , your majesty , as long as you pay on time , in full . nikolas : which i have . sloane : up until today . but right now , i have not been duly compensated . nikolas : you confess that we conspired to tamper with a mayoral election . that 's a -- that 's a federal crime , even -- even in a local election , and i 'm supposed to compensate you ? sloane : hey , i took the heat from jake and sam ! nikolas : who are not members of nor have any professional affiliation with any law enforcement . do n't you get it , sloane ? you would n't have had to have lied if you would n't have sold me out to anna in the first place . so , do you think that i should pay you to be a target of some independent fbi / pcpd investigation ? sloane : yes , i do , because this job has cost me anna . [ scene_break ] anna : sloane is certainly not the man i thought he was . jordan : i 'm sorry to hear that . you know , on the bright side , he 's as guilty of election tampering as nikolas and lomax . and i may not be able to get them , at least not right away , but i can get him . [ anna 's flashback ] anna : you knew i was coming to see jordan . sloane : fix it . anna : i ca n't ! sloane : well , then i guess it 's pentonville for both us . we share another secret , anna -- a bigger one . you killed a man in cold blood . [ back to the present ] anna : actually , i do n't think you can . [ scene_break ] morgan : dad is in the er fighting for his life . it is julian 's fault . put this guy away ! julian : i beg your pardon , but i have done nothing wrong , so i will be taking my leave . right , detective ? dante : wrong . [ scene_break ] michael : for months , i 've been trying to hate you . trying to ... trying to be someone else -- someone who is not your son . and then ... i remembered what i knew all along -- that ... [ sighs ] ... that you 'll never give up on me . [ monitor beeping ] michael : that you 'll never give up on me , and that you 'll never stop loving me . and i will never stop loving you . you are my father . and for as long as i live , i will be your son . [ scene_break ] tj : i put sonny in a position to get shot . carly : did you force those men to kidnap you ? tj : no . carly : did you make it look like they forced you to make the call to get sonny to come to the warehouse -- where you masterminded the whole thing ? tj : [ sighs ] no , of course not . carly : then it 's not your fault . tj : but i was the bait . carly : exactly . if they had n't gone after you , they would have gone after someone else close to sonny , someone else he cared enough to come for . what sonny did for you , he would have done for any of his kids . okay ? tj : yeah . michael : [ sighs ] carly : how 's your dad ? michael : he 's , uh -- he 's still unconscious , but i think he knew i was there . carly : i 'm sure he did . [ chuckles ] michael : um ... you should -- should be with him . okay . [ monitor beeping ] carly : oh , sonny . there 's only one thing i want from you on our wedding day is to live . [ scene_break ] jordan : why ca n't i go after sloane ? he confessed to you . anna : well , it 's just my word , you know , and that would n't be enough to convict him . we need proof . jordan : no , your word is enough for me to secure a search warrant . i 'll have my people toss his place , and then , hopefully , we 'll find some collaborating evidence . [ anna 's flashback ] anna : you kept my gun ? you told me to give it to you so you could get rid of it that night . sloane : but i did n't . anna : why not ? sloane : [ scoffs ] insurance . anna : evidence like that is not gon na be hidden where it can easily be found . you know , um , so ... without proof ... the guilty will walk . [ scene_break ] nikolas : let me make sure i understand this correctly . you make a deal with anna to blackmail me into giving up elq . but then you double - cross her by lying to jake and sam . and , now , you want additional compensation , because you think it 's my fault that you ca n't get a date with anna . hayden : what i do n't understand is , you were trying to have a thing with the woman who was out to put you in jail ? what are you , a masochist , or are you just an idiot ? sloane : anna and i were becoming close . we could have had something real , but i got impatient with her and distracted by your money . i put my greed ahead of my future with a woman i was falling in love with . and i 'll regret that for the rest of my life . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : you said sonny was bleeding heavily . i 'm sure he was just incoherent . he probably had no idea what he was saying . jason : no , he knew . i was trying to keep pressure on the wound when the paramedics showed up to take over . and , uh ... he grabbed my shirt , and he pulled me in to him . and he looked at me right in the face , and said to carly i love her . it was like sonny already knew that i 'd be the one to tell carly that he 'd been shot . [ scene_break ] sam : i was n't expecting jake to run toward the gunshot . but once he did , it was just like this instinct took over me . and -- and i went after him in case he needed backup . patrick : that 's what i 'm talking about , sam . that 's what scares me . y - your first instinct is to put your life at risk . and i -- i know that my fear is just selfish , but it comes from a place of wanting to keep you safe , wanting to keep you with me . look , i do n't know . i do n't know . maybe i 'm just gon na have to learn how to live with it . but sometimes , it 's gon na get the best of me . obviously , tonight is one of those nights . i 'm sorry . sam : do n't be . i -- i took a chance . you had a reaction . and we talked about it . and i do n't know about you , but i 'm -- i 'm feeling a little better about this . come on , patrick , is n't this what relationships are about ? are n't you supposed to talk the person you love , tell them how you 're feeling , have them actually hear you ? patrick : did you hear me ? sam : yes , i did . come on . just so you know , i want to keep you with me , too . [ scene_break ] julian : let me pass . dante : you 're staying put . julian : you know you ca n't do that , right ? you have nothing to connect me to sonny 's shooting . dante : you know a witness puts you in the vicinity at the time my father was attacked ? i get to hold you for 48 hours . julian : that 's ridiculous . morgan : no , that 's the law , jackass . julian : you know what , when alexis has me sprung , i 'm gon na school you on the law . morgan : you know what ? you better hope that you stay locked up . okay , that would be smart of you . lulu : morgan , you need to calm down . morgan : no , 'cause if i see you out , i 'm coming after you . julian : yeah , what are you gon na do ? are you gon na pout at me ? are you gon na sulk me to death ? you 're nothing but a petulant brat . morgan : you 're a coward . you 're a coward that could n't look at my dad when you shot him . lulu : enough ! go to the hospital and be with your father . morgan : this ai n't over . julian : yeah , i 'm not even listening anymore , man . dante : tell them i 'm gon na be there as soon as i can , okay . all right , i 'm gon na deal with him , and them i 'm gon na be there . morgan : please deal with him . let me tell you one more thing . bars or no bars , you 're gon na regret what you did to my dad . [ scene_break ] michael : any chance that this charlie guy was acting alone ? tj : he got a call from his boss right before he made me call your father . michael : well , did he mention this boss by name ? tj : no , but your father thought that charlie was working for julian jerome . michael : did charlie confirm this ? tj : i mean , he did n't come outright and say it , but i think something must have gone wrong . because your father kept saying how charlie 's boss bailed on him and left him in a trick bag by not showing up . and that 's when charlie started panicking , and your father got the gun away from him . michael : okay , then what happened ? tj : then he held the gun on charlie and told him to untie me , and that 's when he got shot . michael : did you see the shooter ? tj : no , but i heard the shot , and then i saw you father look down at his chest , man , and it was all red , and he fell to his knees . i mean , he was so hurt . i have no idea how a person can come back from something like that . michael : my father can . he 'll find a way . [ scene_break ] carly : when you asked me to marry you , you said that our first loyalty has always been to each other , and there 's no sense pretending that we 're not in this together for life . and you 're right . you 're my life partner , and i love you . sonny , you need to listen to me . you ... you 're in bad shape , and i need you to fight . and i 'm right here and i 'm not going anywhere , and i am fighting with you . and we are going to get through this the same way we have gotten through everything , and that 's together . [ scene_break ] jordan : anna , you 've never given up this easily . what 's going on ? anna : i 'm just being objective . i can see where this is headed , and it 's not worth it . you know , if you pursue sloane , you are just gon na end up on the top of lomax 's enemies list , and we both know how that ends . jordan : okay , you do have a point , but is n't it worth the risk ? anna : no , not if there 's no reward , and the only certainty we would have is that you would lose your job . i just want to drop it for now . jordan : i will table this investigation , at least until i find another way to go after sloane . anna : i really wish i had thought this through before i got you involved . jordan : you acted in good faith , okay ? and i 'm just sorry that sloane ended up being such a dud . anna : not half as sorry as i am . jordan : look , i feel awful . i feel awful that i pushed you to make a go of it . thank god you did n't listen to me . anna : well ... actually , i did . i -- i did . i gave a great deal of thought to what you said , and you 're right . jordan : but i was n't . anna : no . i do need to take a chance ... just not with sloane . [ scene_break ] hayden : i feel for you . sloane : you do ? hayden : yeah . you squandered your shot at love for money . i mean , you 're practically a tragic figure . nikolas : or just tragic . hayden : oh , come on . do n't tell me you 've never been in that position before . nikolas : [ scoffs ] losing a woman because i told contradictory lies about ballot tampering ? no , not yet . hayden : no , i mean , come on , like having to choose between some terrible obligation and someone you love . i mean , have you no sympathy for him ? nikolas : i have money for him . and we 'll talk about the particulars of that tomorrow . sloane : that 's all i wanted . ms. barnes . hayden : hey . do n't give up on this , um , anna . sloane : if i thought i had a chance , i would n't . hayden : poor guy . nikolas : poor guy ? he -- he would have blackmailed me if i did n't pony up . hayden : well , he was making the best out of a bad situation . nikolas : of his own making . hayden : think of all that he did for you , nikolas -- sacrificing his shot at love out of loyalty for his boss . nikolas : we need to get you some better magazines . hayden : i 'm serious ! does n't that sacrifice mean anything to you ? does love matter to you ? [ scene_break ] jason : sonny was looking right at me . and he was talking to me , but he treated me like a -- like a friend , like somebody he trusted . and that 's ... certainly not how he treated me before . and i felt -- i do n't know , i felt -- i felt responsible . like i was more than obligated to help him , like i -- like i could n't stand to lose him . elizabeth : well , for nurses and -- and paramedics , w - we experience that with trauma patients . you connect with the person . and i 'm sure for you , that -- that feeling was perfectly natural . jason : yeah , well , i can tell you it certainly did n't feel like that . look , i 'm gon na take a shower . you know , i do n't want the boys to see me like this . elizabeth : i know that would upset them . jason : yeah , it would , and , um ... do you mind watching my phone in case the cops call or in case somebody calls about sonny ? elizabeth : yeah , sure . jason : thanks . elizabeth : yeah , and , jake ... this was just a one - time thing , right ? you 're not gon na make a habit of getting involved in shoot outs ? 'cause i do n't know what i 'd do if you 'd been hurt . jason : hey , hey , hey , hey . lucky for both of us , i was n't hurt , i 'm not gon na get hurt , i 'm not going anywhere . okay ? okay . i need a shower . elizabeth : okay . [ scene_break ] sam : i care about my father . i care about sonny . but the mob , the danger , the power struggle , that 's -- that 's the life that i had with -- with jason . and i 'm with you now , and i 'm happy -- in a way i never even thought was possible . patrick : you do n't miss the adrenaline ? sam : [ sighs ] i do n't miss the fear . i do n't miss what carly is going through right now -- loving somebody , sitting by their side , praying that they 're gon na live , and knowing that if they do , nothing is gon na change . everything 's just gon na go back to the way things were . he 's gon na target his enemies before they target him . but i ... [ sighs ] i understand why she stays . i do . i get that she loves him . but ... hey , i love you . i love you -- the brilliant surgeon who saves lives instead of taking them . and this -- this is the life i want -- with you . [ scene_break ] carly : we 're so much alike . i think that 's why we fight the way we do . we 're both stubborn and selfish . and once we make up our minds , no one can change it . but most of all , we 're survivors , and we can survive this . we can survive this . [ sniffles ] [ monitor beeping ] carly : i am gon na get you a new one of these . [ chuckles ] so when we exchange our vows , you 're gon na be ready . 'cause our wedding is not cancelled . it 's just postponed for a little while till you 're up and you 're moving around . and then we 're gon na have even more of a reason to celebrate . you 're gon na tell everybody that you are back . and that 's gon na happen soon . i know it . tj : uh , ms. jacks , would it be okay for me to see him ? carly : oh , yeah . he would really like that . he 's gon na make it . michael : i know he is . carly : but he 's gon na need us . michael : mm - hmm , i 'm not going anywhere . carly : okay . morgan : hey , how 's dad doing ? michael : uh , still no change . carly : where 've you been ? morgan : i went down to the pd to see dante . they got that piece of dirt julian in custody . [ scene_break ] dante : you 've just been implicated in a shooting . i 'm fully authorized to hold you . julian : well , then you 've got to hold olivia , too , right ? i mean -- lulu : that 's ridiculous . julian : i mean , she was down at the docks with me . maybe she took a shot at sonny . lulu : olivia has no motive . julian : oh , really ? she 's sonny 's ex . he cheated on her . lulu : that was ages ago . julian : men like sonny , they never change . you better watch out , lulu . you know , i hope dante here did n't inherit his father 's wandering eye , huh ? [ grunts when dante punches him in the face ] [ scene_break ] nikolas : love is n't for me . hayden : [ scoffs ] yeah , right . nikolas : excuse me ? hayden : you ca n't fool me . i see you . nikolas : really ? hayden : mm - hmm . nikolas : and what do you see ? hayden : i see a man who 's been in love before , a man who 's afraid to go there again . you 've been hurt ... badly . nikolas : so ? who has n't ? hayden : was it me ? did i hurt you ? nikolas : actually it was the other way around . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i hurt him . i kept him away from his family because i wanted him to be with me . jason : hey . elizabeth . why are you crying ? what 's wrong ? elizabeth : i have to tell you something . [ scene_break ] sam : are those were the scans you 've been waiting for ? patrick : yeah . sam : and ? patrick : it 's not good . [ scene_break ] tj : i want to say thank you , not just for saving my life , but for taking me in . i mean , sonny , you 've been with me every single step of the way , man . and , now , it 's my turn to be here for you . i owe you , sonny , and i 'm gon na repay my debt . [ scene_break ] morgan : what is taking so damn long ? mom , dad 's got a bullet in his spine . when are they gon na operate on him ? carly : okay , morgan , your dad needs to get stronger , and then patrick 's gon na decide what he needs to do . morgan : okay , s - so what are we supposed to do in the meantime ? we 're supposed to just sit around , wait for people ? carly : we sit by his side . we stay with him . he needs our strength until he gets his own back . michael : he needs to hear your voice , morgan . carly : yeah . [ monitor beeping ] morgan : dad . i 'm sorry this happened , dad . it 's my fault . i should have gone with you . i should 've protected you . now look at you . look at what julian 's done to you . [ scene_break ] julian : well , that is [ clears throat ] police brutality . you know what ? i 'm gon na sue you . i 'm gon na sue this department . i 'm gon na own all of your asses . yeah ! officer : you okay , detective ? julian : is he okay ? dante : yeah , i 'm good . julian : hey , you know what ? hey , look at this . i 'm the one who was hit , all right ? you all saw it ! dante : take him down to lockup . get him out of here . julian : you all saw it . dante : you piece of garbage , get out of here . get out of here ! lulu : hey , are you okay ? dante : yeah , i 'm fine . that guy just pisses me off . lulu : yeah , well , julian jerome is n't worth losing your job over . dante : yeah , well , you know , i just could n't -- could n't keep a lid on it anymore . lulu : it 's okay , it 's okay . it 's understandable . you 're under a lot of stress with what happened to sonny . dante : yeah , i 've got to go see my father . if something were to happen to him , i do n't know what i 'm gon na do . [ scene_break ] michael : here , let me take this . it 's a mess . carly : okay . what 's that ? michael : [ sighs ] it 's uh -- it 's dad 's wedding vows . [ scene_break ] sam : once those scans came back , i was hoping you were gon na say it was n't as bad as you thought . patrick : i 'm gon na have to go study these . give sonny and his family every option , but by the looks of these , the odds are n't great . sam : patrick , you have to do everything you can to save him . i mean , not just for sonny , but for the family . i know , i told you i am not a part of the mob anymore . but i know how it works . and once retaliation starts , it 's only gon na escalate . [ scene_break ] morgan : i wo n't let this stand , dad . i 'm gon na make this right . julian will pay for what he 's done . and i 'm gon na kill him . [ next_on ] elizabeth ( to jason ) : i 've done something -- something so terrible and so dishonest ... ... it 's going to destroy us . maxie ( to nathan ) : nina 's out of jail ? ric ( to nina & nathan ) : what the hell is going on here ? patrick ( to dante : it 's gon na require surgery , and ... he might not make it . michael ( to carly ) : i 'm not going anywhere , okay ? neither is dad . morgan ( to sonny ) : julian jerome 's a dead man .
everybody is worried about the grim prognosis for sonny as patrick warns them that he may not live with or without surgery and the procedure could have him paralyzed for life . carly wants to assure her sons as well as their father that sonny will be ok and that she will never stop loving him . michael goes back to his `` old role `` of taking care of the family for his dad and confesses to an unconscious sonny that he loves him and deeply regrets his previous behavior of disowning the man whom he will always know as his father . morgan goes to the station and threatens julian when he finds out from dante , lulu and olivia that julian was seen on the docks right when sonny got shot . he makes it clear that he might be capable of taking the law into his own hands when he concludes that julian intended to murder sonny and the cops can not or will not charge him with murder . jake returns to elizabeth and she is very worried finding out that he 's risked his life to save sonny and could have been killed . she is also worried about the secret coming out about jake when nikolas calls her to warn her that sam , jake and sloane as well as hayden may be onto them with that secret as well as his own issue with the mayoral election and taking elq from michael . sloane reveals to nikolas that he regrets what he did and wants to hold nikolas responsible for the fact that it has cost sloane a future with anna .
<s>[INST] nikolas : you need to keep better tabs on jake . he and sam came by hurling accusations . elizabeth : about his past ? nikolas : yes , amongst other things . when hayden told sam that someone else knows who jake really is , they immediately assume that she was referring to me . elizabeth : well , what did you say ? nikolas : what else ? i pinned it on helena . [ scene_break ] [ jason 's flashback ] jason : sonny , can you hear me , buddy ? there you are , all right . sonny : i know you 'd come . [ groans ] you always do . [ scene_break ] carly : patrick , is there an update on sonny ? patrick : this is still preliminary . we have to run more tests . the good news is that sonny 's in better condition than he was when the paramedics brought him in . carly : oh , god . thank god . i mean , that 's a relief . tj : what happened ? is mr. corinthos gon na be okay ? carly : patrick 's just about to tell us . [ scene_break ] anna : hey , jordan . [ knock on door ] anna : hi , i really need to talk to you about -- you all right ? jordan : it 's tj . anna : what happened ? is he all right ? is he hurt ? jordan : no , he 's all right ... no thanks to sonny corinthos . [ scene_break ] lulu : olivia told me that she saw julian at the pier about three hours ago ... dante : wow . lulu : ... right around the time sonny should have been at the wedding . dante : is n't that interesting , julian ? so , it turns out you were near the crime scene after all . morgan : you were there ? [ scene_break ] patrick : as i was explaining , the bullet is lodged perilously close to sonny 's spine . and it 's gon na require surgery . with that , comes substantial risks . carly : well , what kind of risks ? patrick : one wrong move , and sonny could end up paralyzed for life . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : so , what did you tell hayden about helena ? nikolas : i got to go , okay ? elizabeth : all right . nikolas : so , you ready for our al fresco dinner ? hayden : yes , spencer was running me ragged . he -- he basically performed a one - man show re - enacting his first day at school . and , apparently , his outfit was a success . except for a couple of older boys , but he took care of them . nikolas : how ? hayden : i 've been sworn to secrecy . but let 's just say , if the principal finds out , you 'll be his first phone call . nikolas : i 'm looking forward to that . hayden : yeah . nikolas : actually . hayden : uh , by the way , a little heads - up . he 's gon na need some help with his homework . did you know his class is working on family trees ? nikolas : really ? hayden : yes . and he was talking about your -- his great grandmother , my old friend helena . the one who introduced us in europe . nikolas : yeah , yeah , that 's her . hayden : yeah , she sounds like quite the lady . nikolas : quite the something . hayden : i think both of us should help him with his project . i mean , maybe talking about helena will jog my memory . i mean , you seem to be chatty on the subject . were n't you talking about helena when i came in ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : hi , how are you ? jason : i 'm uh ... not good . elizabeth : oh , my god , what is this ? jason : it 's okay . no , it 's okay . relax . elizabeth : is this blood ? jason : it 's not mine . it 's not mine . sonny was shot . elizabeth : how did you end up with his blood all over you ? ! jason : sam and i were the ones that found him . [ scene_break ] anna : what is sonny 's status now ? jordan : as far as i know , he 's still alive . anna : and you ? what about you ? jordan : w - what do you mean ? anna : your son was just taken at gunpoint and used as bait to lure sonny to what was meant to be his death . i would think even you would be rattled . jordan : of course , i 'm rattled . yeah , it 's my fault . anna : how on earth can you be to blame for what happened ? jordan : i set this in motion years ago when i sent tj to live with shawn . and little by little , he got drawn into sonny 's world , and now i ca n't get him out . anna : well , that 's not how i see it . i think you made an honorable choice to join the dea and do some good in the world . and you entrusted shawn with your kid . so if anyone 's to blame , i 'd say it would be him . jordan : that 's not how tj sees it , no . i thought that he would finally , you know , see sonny for what he is . instead , he 's not recognizing him as a criminal with blood on his hands . he recognizes him as some -- i do n't know , some bad - ass super hero that came to his rescue . no , the only person that tj blames in all of this is julian jerome . [ scene_break ] julian : whoa , whoa , whoa ! get your brother off me ! get in line ! dante : you shut your mouth ! you shut your mouth , or i 'll have you for obstruction . morgan : that 's what he said , right , dante ? that he was at the pier , right , when dad got shot ? lulu : olivia saw julian at the docks , near the time that sonny got shot , and that looks suspicious . morgan : oh , you son of a bitch , you 're gon na pay for trying to kill my dad -- you hear me ? ! [ scene_break ] michael : sonny could be paralyzed ? patrick : that 's one potential outcome . carly : but it 's not a certainty . patrick : no , it 's not a certainty . carly : is there any chance for recovery ? patrick : oh , i hope so , but , right now , our priority is getting sonny strong enough for surgery . right now , he 's too weak . carly : what do we do ? patrick : we wait until tomorrow morning , see where we are . carly : can we see him ? patrick : yeah , but only one at a time . you make sure to tell him he 's gon na have to fight for this . michael : okay , uh , you go . carly : no , no , you go and see him . michael : he 'd want to see you . carly : you 're his son . go ahead . michael : all right . carly : patrick . patrick : yeah ? carly : you said paralysis was only one potential outcome . patrick : that 's right . carly : what are the others ? patrick : it 's an evolving situation , carly . carly : you know what i 'm asking . could sonny die ? patrick : yes . [ scene_break ] [ monitor beeping ] anna : so , did julian go after sonny ? jordan : well , julian , he claimed he 's a changed man . but he is n't after sonny because he 's out of the business . anna : well , he also says he was n't behind duke 's murder . but proof or no proof , i know that he ordered the hit . jordan : sure he did . look , i 've already charged julian with his connection to the hijackings , and i just do n't have enough evidence tying him to sonny 's shooting -- not enough to bring a case to ric . anna : if -- if it 's there , you 'll find it . jordan : i have n't forgotten that i 'm supposed to speak to ric about sloane . i 'm just -- i think he 's a little distracted that his brother sonny 's been shot . but i promise i will -- i will arrange for sloane 's immunity deal as soon as possible . anna : actually , that wo n't be necessary . jordan : why not ? anna : sloane betrayed me . [ scene_break ] nikolas : eavesdropping on my calls now ? [ knock on door ] [ door opens ] hayden : look who 's back . nikolas : how can i help you , sloane ? sloane : i require an audience with the prince . we need to discuss what went down here this afternoon . nikolas : if you do n't mind , hayden . sloane : actually , i 'd prefer it if ms. barnes stayed . hayden : well , i do n't have anything to do with whatever you need to talk to him about . sloane : well , even so , you keep him honest . hayden : i have that effect on people . sloane : mm . so , nikolas ... ... are you enjoying your freedom ? nikolas : any reason why i should n't be ? sloane : well , i took the heat from jake and sam . if i had n't lied for you , you 'd be locked up for stealing the mayoral election from felicia scorpio . nikolas : that 's a pretty serious allegation . sloane : it 's a fact , and you know it . you know what you did , prince cassadine , and i know , too . so , let 's just figure out how much it 's worth , hm ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : what do you mean you found sonny ? did someone shoot him and leave him in the street ? jason : no . we heard a gunshot . so , i ran up to the warehouse to check it out , and i found three armed men holding tj and sonny hostage . i had to do something . elizabeth : you had to do something ? why did n't you call the police ? jason : 'cause there was n't any time to call the police , and , i do n't know , i just reacted , okay ? the kid , tj , was tied to the chair , and sonny was already on the ground . he was bleeding out . elizabeth : so , what did you do ? jason : what did i do ? i killed three men . that 's what i did . elizabeth : how ? did you have a gun ? jason : no , i did n't have a gun , but i took one of theirs eventually . elizabeth : so you were unarmed against three men ? jake , you could have been killed . jason : look , i 'm fine . i did n't get killed . i 'm fine . look at me . i 'm okay , honey . elizabeth : what about tj and sonny ? are they okay ? jason : tj was pretty shaken up , but he 's okay . sonny was bleeding out pretty badly . he 's barely holding on . i did what i could for him while we waited for the ambulance . elizabeth : we ? jason : yeah , like i said , sam was with me . [ scene_break ] sam : patrick . patrick : peace offering ? sam : [ scoffs ] why ? do i need to make one ? patrick : well , it would n't hurt . i tend to react badly when i find out that you could have been shot . sam : i was afraid you would jump to all the wrong conclusions . patrick : did i ? was that not you running alongside sonny 's gurney ? is it just a coincidence that jake 's covered in blood ? sam : no , all of those things happened , but i was never in any danger . patrick : sam , i swear to god , if the next words out of your mouth are `` jake kept me safe , `` my head is gon na explode . sam : [ scoffs ] do you want to hear what actually happened ? or do you just want to be preemptively furious ? patrick : i 'm listening . sam : jake and i were on the pier , and we heard the shooting . and jake told me to stay safe , and i did . patrick : for how long ? sam : long enough that by the time i caught up with him , the shooting was over . patrick : and i 'm gon na assume that jake was involved in the shooting . sam : yes , he -- he was . it was the only way to save sonny and tj . [ scene_break ] julian : you need to get this guy under control . dante : shut up ! okay , you need to ease up . morgan : i 'm not gon na ease up . we know he put dad in the hospital , dante . come on ! dante : we do n't . we have a theory . that 's not the same as proof . morgan : dante , do you not know what 's going on right now ? dad may die , and if he does n't die , he 's never gon na be the same . lulu : what are you talking about ? morgan : patrick said that he has a bullet lodged near his spine , dante . lulu : well , i 'm sure that that is something that patrick can take care of . morgan : he should n't have to take care of that . no one should . dad should be at home celebrating his wedding . and he 's not , and we 're not because of this lying dirt bag ! julian : oh , come on , do n't you think if i had sonny shot , i 'd be as far away as possible ... morgan : it was you ! julian : ... establishing an alibi ? morgan : it was you , okay ! we know that it was him . he 's after dad . it 's our job to protect him . you need to lock this guy up and throw away the key , dante . [ scene_break ] carly : [ sighs ] tj : ms. jacks . carly : hey . tj : i just -- i wanted to say i 'm sorry . carly : for what ? tj : it 's my fault sonny 's hurt . [ scene_break ] michael : everyone 's okay . i know that 's what you care about the most . um , uh , avery 's in her room at the house . [ breathes deeply ] i , uh ... i doubled the guards . i have one right underneath her window . dante 's at the pcpd . he 's trying to figure out who did this , dad . morgan , he went to go let off some steam . [ sniffles ] [ breathes deeply ] krissy -- krissy does n't know , yet . i 'm -- i 'm gon na -- i 'm gon na call her as soon as we get an update . hopefully i can tell her you 're making a full recovery . and , uh , mom , she 's -- she 's right outside . um ... she wants to see you , but she wanted me to come in here first . [ monitor beeping ] michael : [ sighs ] this should n't have happened to you . and i 'm gon na do everything i can ... [ sighs ] ... to make it right . and this probably does n't mean anything to you at this moment , but ... [ sighs ] i love you , dad . [ scene_break ] sam : jake went to tell carly . tj got brought down to the police station to give a statement . i rode in the ambulance with sonny . and when i got here , i would have said something to you , but you were busy saving sonny 's life . i mean , are -- are you still mad at me ? patrick : i just do n't know how many times i 'm gon na have to do this , sam . i love you . i respect what you do . i admire your courage . but it scares the hell out of me that when you hear gunshots , you go running towards them . [ scene_break ] jason : sam called 911 , and she untied tj . i tended to sonny , rolled him over . he was hit pretty bad . there was blood everywhere . something about him was off . he said something that did n't make sense . elizabeth : what do you mean ? jason : he told me that he knew i 'd come . he said that i always do . [ scene_break ] anna : well , as you know , sloane said he would testify that nikolas was complicit in the election tampering . but then when sam and jake confronted nikolas , sloane just denied everything . jordan : but you were so sure that he was gon na hand us nikolas and lomax . why do you think he changed his tune ? anna : i was wrong about sloane . i mean that ... he 's in deeper with nikolas than i thought . [ scene_break ] hayden : wait a second . you did n't actually steal that election , did you ? sloane : oh , yeah . no , he actually did . sorry to burst your bubble , but your benefactor here is not the upstanding citizen he 'd have you believe . hayden : so you both screw over the people of port charles by stealing this election , but nikolas is the one who 's dirty ? how does that work ? nikolas : i 'll tell you . see , ex - commissioner sloane likes to think that he lives on the moral high ground , but in reality , he 's just passing through . i mean , when he first arrived here in port charles , he was a man of justice . but only a few months after that , he sold his principles to mayor lomax . and when that did n't work out , he rented them to me . sloane : i do n't care what you do , your majesty , as long as you pay on time , in full . nikolas : which i have . sloane : up until today . but right now , i have not been duly compensated . nikolas : you confess that we conspired to tamper with a mayoral election . that 's a -- that 's a federal crime , even -- even in a local election , and i 'm supposed to compensate you ? sloane : hey , i took the heat from jake and sam ! nikolas : who are not members of nor have any professional affiliation with any law enforcement . do n't you get it , sloane ? you would n't have had to have lied if you would n't have sold me out to anna in the first place . so , do you think that i should pay you to be a target of some independent fbi / pcpd investigation ? sloane : yes , i do , because this job has cost me anna . [ scene_break ] anna : sloane is certainly not the man i thought he was . jordan : i 'm sorry to hear that . you know , on the bright side , he 's as guilty of election tampering as nikolas and lomax . and i may not be able to get them , at least not right away , but i can get him . [ anna 's flashback ] anna : you knew i was coming to see jordan . sloane : fix it . anna : i ca n't ! sloane : well , then i guess it 's pentonville for both us . we share another secret , anna -- a bigger one . you killed a man in cold blood . [ back to the present ] anna : actually , i do n't think you can . [ scene_break ] morgan : dad is in the er fighting for his life . it is julian 's fault . put this guy away ! julian : i beg your pardon , but i have done nothing wrong , so i will be taking my leave . right , detective ? dante : wrong . [ scene_break ] michael : for months , i 've been trying to hate you . trying to ... trying to be someone else -- someone who is not your son . and then ... i remembered what i knew all along -- that ... [ sighs ] ... that you 'll never give up on me . [ monitor beeping ] michael : that you 'll never give up on me , and that you 'll never stop loving me . and i will never stop loving you . you are my father . and for as long as i live , i will be your son . [ scene_break ] tj : i put sonny in a position to get shot . carly : did you force those men to kidnap you ? tj : no . carly : did you make it look like they forced you to make the call to get sonny to come to the warehouse -- where you masterminded the whole thing ? tj : [ sighs ] no , of course not . carly : then it 's not your fault . tj : but i was the bait . carly : exactly . if they had n't gone after you , they would have gone after someone else close to sonny , someone else he cared enough to come for . what sonny did for you , he would have done for any of his kids . okay ? tj : yeah . michael : [ sighs ] carly : how 's your dad ? michael : he 's , uh -- he 's still unconscious , but i think he knew i was there . carly : i 'm sure he did . [ chuckles ] michael : um ... you should -- should be with him . okay . [ monitor beeping ] carly : oh , sonny . there 's only one thing i want from you on our wedding day is to live . [ scene_break ] jordan : why ca n't i go after sloane ? he confessed to you . anna : well , it 's just my word , you know , and that would n't be enough to convict him . we need proof . jordan : no , your word is enough for me to secure a search warrant . i 'll have my people toss his place , and then , hopefully , we 'll find some collaborating evidence . [ anna 's flashback ] anna : you kept my gun ? you told me to give it to you so you could get rid of it that night . sloane : but i did n't . anna : why not ? sloane : [ scoffs ] insurance . anna : evidence like that is not gon na be hidden where it can easily be found . you know , um , so ... without proof ... the guilty will walk . [ scene_break ] nikolas : let me make sure i understand this correctly . you make a deal with anna to blackmail me into giving up elq . but then you double - cross her by lying to jake and sam . and , now , you want additional compensation , because you think it 's my fault that you ca n't get a date with anna . hayden : what i do n't understand is , you were trying to have a thing with the woman who was out to put you in jail ? what are you , a masochist , or are you just an idiot ? sloane : anna and i were becoming close . we could have had something real , but i got impatient with her and distracted by your money . i put my greed ahead of my future with a woman i was falling in love with . and i 'll regret that for the rest of my life . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : you said sonny was bleeding heavily . i 'm sure he was just incoherent . he probably had no idea what he was saying . jason : no , he knew . i was trying to keep pressure on the wound when the paramedics showed up to take over . and , uh ... he grabbed my shirt , and he pulled me in to him . and he looked at me right in the face , and said to carly i love her . it was like sonny already knew that i 'd be the one to tell carly that he 'd been shot . [ scene_break ] sam : i was n't expecting jake to run toward the gunshot . but once he did , it was just like this instinct took over me . and -- and i went after him in case he needed backup . patrick : that 's what i 'm talking about , sam . that 's what scares me . y - your first instinct is to put your life at risk . and i -- i know that my fear is just selfish , but it comes from a place of wanting to keep you safe , wanting to keep you with me . look , i do n't know . i do n't know . maybe i 'm just gon na have to learn how to live with it . but sometimes , it 's gon na get the best of me . obviously , tonight is one of those nights . i 'm sorry . sam : do n't be . i -- i took a chance . you had a reaction . and we talked about it . and i do n't know about you , but i 'm -- i 'm feeling a little better about this . come on , patrick , is n't this what relationships are about ? are n't you supposed to talk the person you love , tell them how you 're feeling , have them actually hear you ? patrick : did you hear me ? sam : yes , i did . come on . just so you know , i want to keep you with me , too . [ scene_break ] julian : let me pass . dante : you 're staying put . julian : you know you ca n't do that , right ? you have nothing to connect me to sonny 's shooting . dante : you know a witness puts you in the vicinity at the time my father was attacked ? i get to hold you for 48 hours . julian : that 's ridiculous . morgan : no , that 's the law , jackass . julian : you know what , when alexis has me sprung , i 'm gon na school you on the law . morgan : you know what ? you better hope that you stay locked up . okay , that would be smart of you . lulu : morgan , you need to calm down . morgan : no , 'cause if i see you out , i 'm coming after you . julian : yeah , what are you gon na do ? are you gon na pout at me ? are you gon na sulk me to death ? you 're nothing but a petulant brat . morgan : you 're a coward . you 're a coward that could n't look at my dad when you shot him . lulu : enough ! go to the hospital and be with your father . morgan : this ai n't over . julian : yeah , i 'm not even listening anymore , man . dante : tell them i 'm gon na be there as soon as i can , okay . all right , i 'm gon na deal with him , and them i 'm gon na be there . morgan : please deal with him . let me tell you one more thing . bars or no bars , you 're gon na regret what you did to my dad . [ scene_break ] michael : any chance that this charlie guy was acting alone ? tj : he got a call from his boss right before he made me call your father . michael : well , did he mention this boss by name ? tj : no , but your father thought that charlie was working for julian jerome . michael : did charlie confirm this ? tj : i mean , he did n't come outright and say it , but i think something must have gone wrong . because your father kept saying how charlie 's boss bailed on him and left him in a trick bag by not showing up . and that 's when charlie started panicking , and your father got the gun away from him . michael : okay , then what happened ? tj : then he held the gun on charlie and told him to untie me , and that 's when he got shot . michael : did you see the shooter ? tj : no , but i heard the shot , and then i saw you father look down at his chest , man , and it was all red , and he fell to his knees . i mean , he was so hurt . i have no idea how a person can come back from something like that . michael : my father can . he 'll find a way . [ scene_break ] carly : when you asked me to marry you , you said that our first loyalty has always been to each other , and there 's no sense pretending that we 're not in this together for life . and you 're right . you 're my life partner , and i love you . sonny , you need to listen to me . you ... you 're in bad shape , and i need you to fight . and i 'm right here and i 'm not going anywhere , and i am fighting with you . and we are going to get through this the same way we have gotten through everything , and that 's together . [ scene_break ] jordan : anna , you 've never given up this easily . what 's going on ? anna : i 'm just being objective . i can see where this is headed , and it 's not worth it . you know , if you pursue sloane , you are just gon na end up on the top of lomax 's enemies list , and we both know how that ends . jordan : okay , you do have a point , but is n't it worth the risk ? anna : no , not if there 's no reward , and the only certainty we would have is that you would lose your job . i just want to drop it for now . jordan : i will table this investigation , at least until i find another way to go after sloane . anna : i really wish i had thought this through before i got you involved . jordan : you acted in good faith , okay ? and i 'm just sorry that sloane ended up being such a dud . anna : not half as sorry as i am . jordan : look , i feel awful . i feel awful that i pushed you to make a go of it . thank god you did n't listen to me . anna : well ... actually , i did . i -- i did . i gave a great deal of thought to what you said , and you 're right . jordan : but i was n't . anna : no . i do need to take a chance ... just not with sloane . [ scene_break ] hayden : i feel for you . sloane : you do ? hayden : yeah . you squandered your shot at love for money . i mean , you 're practically a tragic figure . nikolas : or just tragic . hayden : oh , come on . do n't tell me you 've never been in that position before . nikolas : [ scoffs ] losing a woman because i told contradictory lies about ballot tampering ? no , not yet . hayden : no , i mean , come on , like having to choose between some terrible obligation and someone you love . i mean , have you no sympathy for him ? nikolas : i have money for him . and we 'll talk about the particulars of that tomorrow . sloane : that 's all i wanted . ms. barnes . hayden : hey . do n't give up on this , um , anna . sloane : if i thought i had a chance , i would n't . hayden : poor guy . nikolas : poor guy ? he -- he would have blackmailed me if i did n't pony up . hayden : well , he was making the best out of a bad situation . nikolas : of his own making . hayden : think of all that he did for you , nikolas -- sacrificing his shot at love out of loyalty for his boss . nikolas : we need to get you some better magazines . hayden : i 'm serious ! does n't that sacrifice mean anything to you ? does love matter to you ? [ scene_break ] jason : sonny was looking right at me . and he was talking to me , but he treated me like a -- like a friend , like somebody he trusted . and that 's ... certainly not how he treated me before . and i felt -- i do n't know , i felt -- i felt responsible . like i was more than obligated to help him , like i -- like i could n't stand to lose him . elizabeth : well , for nurses and -- and paramedics , w - we experience that with trauma patients . you connect with the person . and i 'm sure for you , that -- that feeling was perfectly natural . jason : yeah , well , i can tell you it certainly did n't feel like that . look , i 'm gon na take a shower . you know , i do n't want the boys to see me like this . elizabeth : i know that would upset them . jason : yeah , it would , and , um ... do you mind watching my phone in case the cops call or in case somebody calls about sonny ? elizabeth : yeah , sure . jason : thanks . elizabeth : yeah , and , jake ... this was just a one - time thing , right ? you 're not gon na make a habit of getting involved in shoot outs ? 'cause i do n't know what i 'd do if you 'd been hurt . jason : hey , hey , hey , hey . lucky for both of us , i was n't hurt , i 'm not gon na get hurt , i 'm not going anywhere . okay ? okay . i need a shower . elizabeth : okay . [ scene_break ] sam : i care about my father . i care about sonny . but the mob , the danger , the power struggle , that 's -- that 's the life that i had with -- with jason . and i 'm with you now , and i 'm happy -- in a way i never even thought was possible . patrick : you do n't miss the adrenaline ? sam : [ sighs ] i do n't miss the fear . i do n't miss what carly is going through right now -- loving somebody , sitting by their side , praying that they 're gon na live , and knowing that if they do , nothing is gon na change . everything 's just gon na go back to the way things were . he 's gon na target his enemies before they target him . but i ... [ sighs ] i understand why she stays . i do . i get that she loves him . but ... hey , i love you . i love you -- the brilliant surgeon who saves lives instead of taking them . and this -- this is the life i want -- with you . [ scene_break ] carly : we 're so much alike . i think that 's why we fight the way we do . we 're both stubborn and selfish . and once we make up our minds , no one can change it . but most of all , we 're survivors , and we can survive this . we can survive this . [ sniffles ] [ monitor beeping ] carly : i am gon na get you a new one of these . [ chuckles ] so when we exchange our vows , you 're gon na be ready . 'cause our wedding is not cancelled . it 's just postponed for a little while till you 're up and you 're moving around . and then we 're gon na have even more of a reason to celebrate . you 're gon na tell everybody that you are back . and that 's gon na happen soon . i know it . tj : uh , ms. jacks , would it be okay for me to see him ? carly : oh , yeah . he would really like that . he 's gon na make it . michael : i know he is . carly : but he 's gon na need us . michael : mm - hmm , i 'm not going anywhere . carly : okay . morgan : hey , how 's dad doing ? michael : uh , still no change . carly : where 've you been ? morgan : i went down to the pd to see dante . they got that piece of dirt julian in custody .

i -- i hear you were good at it . jj : you heard wrong , man . i gave all that up . bev : marta totally did n't need to talk to me , kyle . kyle : really ? i guess i misunderstood . but at least jj and i got a chance to get to know each other . jj : yeah , you know what -- you know what , we 're gon na take off . bev : thank you . kyle : yeah . anne : so why was eve all worked up about seeing you ? theresa : oh , she wanted something . she always does . that 's the only time i see her . anne : oh , yeah , must run in the family then . theresa : she did say that she would do something for me , but i 'm not really holding my breath . besides , i never got anything i wanted without doing it myself . anne : ohh . so i assume you 're working on those personnel evaluations i gave you ? theresa : this is confidential , anne . anne : oh , yeah , let me see . excuse me -- oh . designer dresses -- like you have one credit card that is n't maxed out . theresa : what -- anne , come on , my shopping cart was full , what are you doing ? anne : i 'm trying to get your attention , theresa . theresa : ohh . anne : theresa ? theresa ? you have no money . brady can not stand the sight of you , and he already said he is n't gon na give you one dime that is n't for that baby . now if you want my opinion -- theresa : i do n't . anne : theresa , him wanting you to work here , this is not about you having your own money , okay . this is about brady doing everything he can to keep you away from him . honey , you 're not gon na seduce yourself back into his life , and there is nothing in your bag of tricks that 's gon na work this time . grow up . john : yeah , before i come over to see the baby , would you mind asking henderson to remove all the fireplace pokers ? brady : that 's funny . i think maggie took care of it already . listen , i do n't like this any more than you do . but i could not leave my infant son with theresa alone in that crappy apartment of hers . it 's not gon na happen . it 's only temporary , too . john : yeah , define temporary . brady : i 'm not gon na let her get her hooks into me , dad . not after what she did to you . and after what she did to melanie , i swear to god , all that woman is to me is someone i share a son with . that 's it . paige : that could work . daphne : brady black ? paige : why not ? daphne : are you kidding me ? that 's insane . paige : well , not him specifically , just someone his age or maybe his dad 's age . daphne : paige ? paige : do n't worry , i 'll find someone , okay ? i know i will . ben : if you 're worried about me blowing up and doing something that 's gon na hurt abigail , it 's never gon na happen . clyde : okay . but i still think you need to talk about what 's working on you ... to someone who wo n't betray you . you know what i mean ? stefano : look , we 've been through all of this before , chad , huh ? i am a grieving father who desperately wants to be with his only surviving son . ah . chad : why did n't you want to be with your only surviving son last year ? while you were busy globe trotting all over the place with your little , beautiful female assistants . stefano : you know , this is getting tedious for me , chad , huh ? i 've answered the same question repeatedly , but you never , never are satisfied . chad : i guess that 's because even though i want to believe you , i just ca n't . abigail : `` i 'm writing to you because as far as i know , you and your mother are bridget 's only known loved ones . she often tells me about the time she spent caring for you as a child when you and your mother were living in ireland was the happiest of her life . she treasures your letters and the pictures she has of you . she never wants to trouble anyone , the poor soul , so i doubt that she 's mentioned in her letters that her health has completely taken a turn for the worse . eve : i am so sorry that that took so long . that 's all right -- i 've got one more person who might work very well for you . eve : nobody 's gon na be able to help me , marlena . i was just so sure that that was my daughter on the phone , so i called her back without even looking but she says , `` no , mom , that was n't me , and it 's never gon na be me because i could care less about you . i never want to see you again , much less talk to you . `` marlena : gosh , i am so sorry about all this . eve : my life without my daughter . how am i gon na go on ? marlena : eve , you 've got ta have faith that the two of you will be able to reconcile . [ phone rings ] marlena : i 'm so sorry . yes ? no , tell her i 'm in session . thanks . eve , i 'm meant to be at a staff meeting in a few minutes , but i can cancel that if you like . eve : no , no , no , no -- do n't do that , you 've been so nice to me already . just go -- go to your meeting . but do you -- do you mind if i just sit here for a minute and pull myself together ? i do n't want anybody to see me like this . marlena : of course you may . eve : thank you . marlena : uh , i 'm just sorry you 're going through all this . eve : you 're so kind . [ fake cries ] okay , okay , okay , okay , okay . let 's see . not it ... ohh , bingo . laura horton 's psychiatric history -- got it . daphne : you could n't be thinking of dating some old guy , can you ? oh , god , no , you could n't be . come on . paige : well , not exactly , no . daphne : this is about getting back at your mom , is n't it ? or jj . i 'm right , are n't i ? how are you gon na do it ? paige : you 'll see . jj : so how well do you know that guy , kyle ? bev : not very well . i mean , he basically supplies everybody now that you and rory are out of business . jj : well , so he gets you weed ? bev : not just weed . not that i 'm into any other stuff in a serious way . why ask me about kyle ? jj : i do n't know . kinda seems like he wants something . bev : from you ? jj : well , that 's not a big deal . unknown man : yeah , jj devereaux is definitely talking to that kid who 's dealing for the second time . but should i keep watching him or not ? ben : i used that app you told me about . the one that would follow abigail 's movements . she told me she was going to talk to her mom . but she went to go see chad dimera . clyde : well , look it , he 's on the hospital board and that 's where she works , so . ben : this did n't have anything to do with work ! i followed her over there , and i heard them talking outside in the garden . she made chad promise to never tell me they slept together . stefano : so if you do n't believe me , why do n't you tell me why you think i chose this moment to come back to salem ? huh ? chad : i do n't think , i know that you are here because of me and abigail . abigail : `` bridget 's keeping her spirits up and fighting back as best she can . she 'd be beside herself if she found out i had written to tell you this . she 's a proud one . but if i was in your place , i 'd want to know . she 'd love to hear your voice , so please ring her if you can . and keep her in your prayers . `` brady : you know , i was n't even gone very long , but you know what ? i missed you every minute . every single minute . yeah . theresa : hey , barb ? do you know why that couple looks so worried ? barb : their kid fell off the slide . he 's getting stitches . they 're a wreck . theresa : i bet . brady : you know something ? you know you have n't even lived here for one day yet ? and you are already the most important guy in my life . did you know that ? barb : they brought the kid in last year because he was running a fever . they were yelling , blaming each other for the kid being sick . now look at them . you never know . theresa : yeah . i guess a scare like that can really bring you closer . amazing . brady : [ cooing ] hi . i know . i know . i know . theresa : yes , yes , absolutely perfect . all right . jennifer : oh !
jennifer was n't thrilled with jj for moving on so fast with bev . jj was tired of worrying about paige . he wanted to have fun . after they talked , jennifer agreed that jj should have fun . eve had a session with marlena . eve tried to pump marlena about laura . marlena would n't take the bait . brady gave theresa the ground rules about their custody agreement . he also let theresa know that he was n't going to support her . ben and abby ran into chad and ben let him that he and abby were moving in together .
<s>[INST] jj : hey , i can meet you in the park in a half an hour . does that work ? bev : i 'm already here . it 'll be good to see you , jj . jj : yeah , it 'll be good to see you too , bev . hey , mom . jennifer : i think i know what you 're doing , jj . come on . this never works . daphne : that 's him ... the guy you 're meeting ? paige : yeah , you get why i wanted you to be here with me ? daphne : i do n't get why you would come here by yourself . he 's way , way too -- paige : i know what he is . that 's exactly why i want to meet him . eve : nothing marlena has on laura horton 's gon na be on the computer . it 's all gon na be in that big file cabinet with a lock . well , frankie better have been right . if laura horton 's illness is hereditary , i just need to know what the symptoms were . [ sighs ] why is theresa never where i need her to be ? [ footsteps approaching ] eve : anne , hi . uh , when is theresa supposed to be at work ? anne : you know the question is n't when , it 's if . eve : what is that supposed to mean ? anne : well , your sister may never show her face here again . eve : well , that does n't work for me , anne , because i need her here now . anne : oh , yeah , why ? brady : look , theresa , there 's really nothing for you to do around here , and it ca n't be too comfortable for you . theresa : everybody around here hating me , you mean ? so what am i supposed to do ? brady : what are you supposed to do ? you have a job . why do n't you go to it ? theresa : you still expect me to work ? brady : i certainly do . theresa : i am sorry , but that is so not going to happen . brady : excuse me ? theresa : look , i - i know that i said i would go back to work , but the idea of being away from tate just kills me . brady , i want to be a full - time mother to him . brady : theresa , whether you work or not , you wo n't be a full - time mother to tate . you ca n't be ... 'cause i have it right here in writing . clyde : wait . you 're sure he 's back in town ? man ... that must mean all the charges were dropped . no . no , forget about it . listen , i handled victor kiriakis , did n't i ? i 'm not gon na have any problem dealing with stefano dimera . stefano : just keep doing what you 're doing . do n't worry about the devereaux girl , all right ? she 'll come around , and so will my son , huh ? ben : i 'm gon na put all my winter stuff in the storage room so you have plenty of space to just unpack tonight . i ca n't wait . abigail : [ chuckles ] ben : [ growls playfully ] abigail : neither can i . ben : [ chuckles ] jennifer : honey , i 'm not telling you not to move on ... but do n't you think this is too fast ? do n't you need some time to recover a little bit ? jj : i ca n't hang around here feeling bad about myself . jennifer : all right , well , i could take some time off . maybe we could go on a little vacation . jj : mom , that 's not gon na help , okay ? jennifer : okay , well , i do n't think that dating a girl like bev is a great idea either . jj : well , i do , 'cause she 's fun and she likes me . you know what else ? she 's actually happy to see me . she 's not constantly telling me what a piece of scum i am . eve : what i want with my little sister is my business , okay ? has she quit her job yet ? anne : no , not yet . eve : well , i know that she has moved into the kiriakis mansion . i just did n't think that meant she was gon na quit her job . anne : why are you so interested in your sister 's work habits ? oh , you 're -- you 're afraid you 're gon na end up supporting her or something . is that it ? eve : [ scoffs ] marlena : oh , hello , eve . eve : hi . marlena : anne . anne : dr. evans . marlena : uh , could i talk to you for just a moment ? eve : oh , absolutely , yes . marlena : thank you . excuse us . anne : okay . marlena : were we not meant to be meeting right now for a consultation ? theresa : i do n't care what that paper says . you ca n't keep me away from my baby . brady : theresa , you 're welcome to stay in this house , but it 's temporary . and you will not encroach on my time with my son . if i 'm spending time with him , i want you to stay away . and i 'm not supporting you . i wo n't do it . i mean , do you have any -- have you made calls to anybody , your parents maybe ? theresa : no . look , i 'm way too proud to ask them for anything . brady : i see , theresa . well , if you quit your job ... what are you gon na do for money ? ben : hey , chad . are n't you gon na say hello ? chad : hello , ben . abigail . daphne : do you know what you 're doing ? paige : yes . and he 's gon na be here any second , so go to another table . i said go . go on . go . [ clears throat ] mark : you 're paige , right , from instant connection ? i 'm mark . paige : uh , hi . mark : you 're even prettier in person . something wrong ? paige : you did n't put your age in your profile . mark : oh . i swear i sent the first pictures i could find . i - i was n't trying to fool anyone . i look older than you thought i would be , right ? paige : oh , no , no , do n't sit down . um , i 'm sorry , but this is n't going to work out . jennifer : does bev know what happened between you and eve ? jj : she knows everything . she also understands that people do stupid stuff , so being with her is -- is like a relief . and you were right when you told me that i was n't gon na be able to fix things with paige , but i ca n't sit around this house feeling like dirt . i just want to have some fun . jennifer : what kind of fun , jj ? jj : i 'm not talking about drugs , mom . but i 'm not a saint either . jennifer : so you think it 's okay to use a girl who 's liked you for a long time ? really ? jj : we 're sort of , like , using each other . we both know that . jennifer : jj ... okay , i am not done talking about this , but i need to get to work , so you 're gon na come with me , and we 're gon na finish this conversation . jj : uh , mom , no , i am sorry ... jennifer : yes . jj : but i am so done with talking about this . i do n't want to run into abigail and aunt kayla and daniel and everybody else who thinks i 'm a screw - up . and if i hang around this house all summer , i will go totally nuts . jennifer : jj -- jj : no , mom , i 'm not just saying that , 'cause sometimes i feel like i am losing my mind . i swear . i feel like i am going totally insane . jennifer : all right , you stop it right there . and do n't you ever say something like that to me ever again . eve : oh , i completely lost track of time . i 'm so sorry , but i - i just have one little , itty - bitty thing that i need to take care of before we talk . um , are you gon na be in your office ? 'cause i 'll meet you there . marlena : that would work for me . i 've got some calls to make anyway . eve : okay , thanks . i 'll -- i 'll be right there . marlena : mm - hmm . eve : you tell little miss theresa donovan to text me the second she gets here . anne : okay . [ hisses ] theresa : brady , i 'm not an executive like you are , okay ? what i make at the hospital -- it 's never gon na be enough . so why slave away for a pittance when i could be spending time with my son ? brady : theresa , working parents -- they manage to raise well - adjusted kids all the time . theresa : wait . you still want me to work 40 hours a week like i was ? brady : what i do n't want is for you to be financially dependent on me . theresa : brady , i hate that job . everybody at the hospital hates my guts . brady : why do you think that is , hmm ? if you do n't like your job , theresa , then go find something else , but do me a favor . do n't quit your job at the hospital before you get another job , because it 's easier to get one when you already have one . theresa : oh , well , thanks for the career tip . brady : no problem . by the way , i 'm sure anne milbauer will give you a glowing reference . theresa : oh , you 're just enjoying this , are n't you ? brady : i want to drum it in your head that this whole living situation is temporary . now , what happens after you leave here , that is completely up to you . have no illusions about that . ben : so , chad , how 's it going ? chad : do you care ? ben : i guess i owe you an apology for the way i was last time we talked . you know what ? i probably made things a lot more tense than they needed to be . chad : do n't worry about it . ben : look ...

[ chuckles ] i want to talk about you , and i want you to know that i am here for you . and you start your new job with sonny tomorrow , right ? jj : yeah . jennifer : okay , so just have some fun today , you know . not doing the wrong thing with the wrong people . just have fun . jj : mom , i hear you . jennifer : okay . jj : really . look , i love you . i do n't know what i would do without you . jennifer : i love you too , honey . eve : have you got a name for me ? marlena : well , i do have some ideas for you , but i want to make sure i get the right person , so i have a couple more questions . eve : okay , shoot . marlena : you said that you had done something unforgiveable that involved your daughter . and i 'm wondering , could you talk a little bit more about that ? eve : well , it also involves jennifer and her son . marlena : i see . eve : and it 's -- well , it 's ... it 's just hard to talk about because it 's -- it 's very complicated . marlena : is it uncomfortable talking to me or talking to anybody about it ? marlena : oh , no , no , you -- you are really , really wonderful . it -- it 's just it 's ... it 's hard to talk to anyone who , well , knows jennifer 's family so well -- is close with them . marlena : i see . eve : yes , and i know that you go way back with her family , right ? i mean , you were the one that helped treat jennifer 's mother when she had that breakdown or whatever that was , right ? marlena : i ca n't discuss other people with you . you know that . but i 'm glad to talk to you about what you need , what will help you . why do n't you talk about your feelings just for a moment ? but not about the things that are causing you anxiety . eve : okay . all right . i want my daughter back ... my little girl . and i 'll do whatever it takes ... anything . mark : is there anything i could do to change your mind ? i 'd really like to buy you a drink . paige : i 'm sorry , but i think i wasted your time . mark : yeah . daphne : what happened ? i mean , he 's too old for you , but he did n't look as ancient as he did on his profile . paige : eh , he just was n't right , but thanks for being here . daphne : yeah . he 's not gon na be a problem , is he ? paige : no , no , no , he seems like a nice guy , and he got the message , so ... daphne : okay . what are you doing ? paige : starting all over again . brady : look ... our love and concern for tate is the only thing that we share . i am happy to pay for a nanny that will help both of us . i 'm happy to pay for whatever tate needs . but what i wo n't be doing is giving you money for you to spend on yourself . theresa : oh , my god . you still think of me as some low - life little gold digger , do n't you ? brady : actually , i try not to think of you at all . hayley : i 'm sorry to interrupt . brady : what is it , hayley ? hayley : it 's time for the baby 's bottle . theresa : oh , i 'll -- brady : i will be happy to give it to him . hayley : okay , should i bring him down here , or do you want to go up to the nursery ? theresa : what the hell are you looking at me for ? do whatever you want , like you always do . excuse me . chad : what 's got you in such a good mood ? ben : abigail 's moving in with me today . chad : really ? ben : hmm . abigail : yeah . chad : congratulations . ben : thanks , man . i 'm a lucky guy . abigail : i have to get to work , so ... ben : yeah , okay , sure , sure . abigail : i 'm gon na take off , okay ? ben : i 'll see you later . abigail : bye . ben : bye .

anne : i 'm trying to get your attention , theresa . theresa : ohh . anne : theresa ? theresa ? you have no money . brady can not stand the sight of you , and he already said he is n't gon na give you one dime that is n't for that baby . now if you want my opinion -- theresa : i do n't . anne : theresa , him wanting you to work here , this is not about you having your own money , okay . this is about brady doing everything he can to keep you away from him . honey , you 're not gon na seduce yourself back into his life , and there is nothing in your bag of tricks that 's gon na work this time . grow up . john : yeah , before i come over to see the baby , would you mind asking henderson to remove all the fireplace pokers ? brady : that 's funny . i think maggie took care of it already . listen , i do n't like this any more than you do . but i could not leave my infant son with theresa alone in that crappy apartment of hers . it 's not gon na happen . it 's only temporary , too . john : yeah , define temporary . brady : i 'm not gon na let her get her hooks into me , dad . not after what she did to you . and after what she did to melanie , i swear to god , all that woman is to me is someone i share a son with . that 's it . paige : that could work . daphne : brady black ? paige : why not ? daphne : are you kidding me ? that 's insane . paige : well , not him specifically , just someone his age or maybe his dad 's age . daphne : paige ? paige : do n't worry , i 'll find someone , okay ? i know i will . ben : if you 're worried about me blowing up and doing something that 's gon na hurt abigail , it 's never gon na happen . clyde : okay . but i still think you need to talk about what 's working on you ... to someone who wo n't betray you . you know what i mean ? stefano : look , we 've been through all of this before , chad , huh ? i am a grieving father who desperately wants to be with his only surviving son . ah . chad : why did n't you want to be with your only surviving son last year ? while you were busy globe trotting all over the place with your little , beautiful female assistants . stefano : you know , this is getting tedious for me , chad , huh ? i 've answered the same question repeatedly , but you never , never are satisfied . chad : i guess that 's because even though i want to believe you , i just ca n't . abigail : `` i 'm writing to you because as far as i know , you and your mother are bridget 's only known loved ones . she often tells me about the time she spent caring for you as a child when you and your mother were living in ireland was the happiest of her life . she treasures your letters and the pictures she has of you . she never wants to trouble anyone , the poor soul , so i doubt that she 's mentioned in her letters that her health has completely taken a turn for the worse . eve : i am so sorry that that took so long . that 's all right -- i 've got one more person who might work very well for you . eve : nobody 's gon na be able to help me , marlena . i was just so sure that that was my daughter on the phone , so i called her back without even looking but she says , `` no , mom , that was n't me , and it 's never gon na be me because i could care less about you . i never want to see you again , much less talk to you . `` marlena : gosh , i am so sorry about all this . eve : my life without my daughter . how am i gon na go on ?

[ all cheering ] nick : okay , mom , we 're here to tuck you in . did you do this ? did you take my mom ? nate : it 's not what it looks like . sneaking her out was not my idea . i could lose my medical license over this . i could lose everything . nick : then why do it ? nate : victor . reed : whoever kidnapped her was not the person who was driving the car . victoria : how do you know that ? reed : because it was me . i was driving . victor : i did n't kill j.t . hellstrom . once i 've cleared my name , i will bring your mother back to genoa city . rey : all right ! nobody move ! hands where i can see them ! victor newman , you 're under arrest . nick : [ sighs ] rey : it 's time . we 're ready . [ sniffles , clears throat ] we ready to do this ? christine : [ sighs ] i 'm not convinced this is our best shot . rey : we wo n't know until we take it . christine : well , there are risks involved . rey : there always are with anything worthwhile . and this is very worthwhile . nikki : [ grunts ] [ sighs ] [ grunts ] [ sighs ] [ sighs ] nurse !

[ sighs ] [ door closes ] nikki : [ grunts ] oh ... [ sighs ] christine : here they are . rey : oh , it looks like santa made a late delivery . three world travelers . nick : is this where we get our phone calls ? or arrested instead of just being held on suspicion of , what , some trumped - up b.s . ? victor : where 's my wife ? anything happens to her because of you , you 're in trouble . rey : that is an interesting take , considering you 're the one who removed her from memorial , shoved her in an ambulance , and transferred her to a jet . not a medevac chopper , a private jet that looks nothing like a hospital . you abducted a woman in a fragile condition . those are serious charges . victor : mm - hmm . so you book me now so i can make bail and see my wife , or you release me . rey : you sure that 's my only option ? are -- are we still in that window ? nick : window for what ? christine : police can hold a suspect for 72 hours before charges are filed . that gives them time to investigate the crimes and advise the d.a . 's office for official charges . nate : wait , are -- are you serious ? i have a job . patients . rey : well , this is where i suggest , if you care so much about your patients , you do n't do something that 's gon na get you arrested . we got plenty of time to dig into this , and that 's what we 're gon na do . we 're gon na be meticulous , and go by the book . victor : where 's my wife ? ! rey : rest assured , mr . newman , we do n't lock up victims . your wife is getting the care that she needs , and that 's not on a plane . victoria : [ sighs ] where are you ? we need to talk about this . now . please .

[ groans ] [ sighs ] am i dead ? devon : oh , you look close to it . cane : [ sighs ] did i , uh ... devon : pass out on my couch before midnight ? yep . cane : oh , sam . i 've got to get to sam . devon : the twins had bridgette sleep over . they took care of it . it 's cool . cane : [ scoffs ] i suppose they want to call me mr . role model , huh ? victor : so , you booked us for what ? kidnapping my own wife ? rey : did she sign herself out of the hospital ? request a private jet on an airstrip with a flight plan out of the country , away from her friends , family , and medical supervision ? yeah , no . l - let me be more clear on this . under state law , removing a patient from a hospital without that person 's or hospital 's written consent is classified as kidnapping . victor : mm . rey : even if that person is your wife , who was , at the time , under the legal responsibility of memorial . victor : mm . rey : so unless there 's something you want to get off your chest ... and then , of course , there are your accomplices -- a - a doctor and a business leader . only the classiest of minions for victor newman . you know how to pick 'em . final charges are up to the d.a . , of course . christine : right now , we 're also looking at kidnapping , not to mention conspiracy . those are the big ones . rey : decades behind bars . unless there 's some reason you want us to cut you a break on this . nick : we want our lawyers . now . victor : no , son . do n't worry about it . this ambitious young detective is feeling his oats , right ? so he 's trying to play a game with us . not gon na lower myself . rey : oh , no attorneys ? all right . that -- that -- that works for me . what about you , doc ? these two have rap sheets you would n't believe , but this is new territory for you . nate : i 'm fine . rey : good . then you and i are gon na have a very nice , long chitchat . you 're first . come with me . the hard work you put into lowering your additional sponsorship rey : thank you . do you want a water ? coffee ? i 'm sure you 're hungry after spending all night in lock - up . i could probably find you an energy bar somewhere . nate : we gon na do this or what ? rey : just so we 're clear , i know that you are not the architect of this drama . you 're a doctor . `` first , do no harm , `` and all that . and victor newman , he is , uh , rich and powerful . i could see how it would be easy to get sucked into it . i 'm sure he made you feel like the noble hero by stepping into this drama with his wife , but ... look where you are now . at the gcpd . possibly facing even more jail time . charges . conviction . prison time . you can forget about being a concierge doctor to the rich and powerful . you 're gon na be watching guys get their heads split open in the chow line . nate : i took an oath to look after my patients . rey : cops take an oath , too . that 's why i stopped that plane during taxi . brought your patient back into the hospital where she belongs , and threw your asses in a cell . nate : when it comes to looking after my patient 's health and safety , i will not apologize . where she goes , i go . rey : yeah ? yeah ? o - out of the country with victor newman , who is a person of interest in a murder investigation ? and your patient just had major surgery ? does any of that -- any of it at all -- sound like a good idea to you ? nate : i 'm charged with nikki 's care . victor was worried about her safety . he did n't want her to stay a target of whoever did this to her . so he made the decision to remove her from the hospital and out of harm 's way . now , was i going to let her go without medical supervision ? no , i was not . so if this is where we are , then this is where we are . rey : i do n't want you to be here . you are smart enough to know that . nate : i do . i do . i understand that i am just a pawn . that you are trying to move me around the board and get me to tell you whatever it is that you want to hear about victor . but all i know is that you are keeping me from my patient . the one that you are calling a victim . and , see , the thing is , the only one making her out to be a victim right now is you . devon : hell , it was new year 's eve , and you got drunk along with the rest of the world . so you 're not special in this . cane : yeah , but i 'm a parent . devon : yeah , but you 've been dealing with a lot , man . you have a wife who just spent the holidays behind bars . cane : right . which means that she 's the one who 's suffering , not me . i 'm out here with my job and my kids and my bed , which i did n't sleep in last night . devon : well ... i do n't know what you want me to say to you . you can keep beating yourself up about it , or you can think about why you put yourself through that last night . cane : because i miss lily . and i just wanted to forget abut everything for one night . that 's all . devon : i understand that . of course i do . but , i mean , she 's gon na come back in the fall . cane : it 's january 1st . devon : i know what month it is . but i 'm just saying this because you need to focus on the long haul and think about it . 'cause she 's gon na come back to you . she 's gon na get out . she 's gon na come back . you guys are gon na resume life . pick right back up where you left off . cane : is that what 's gon na happen , is it ? you know , the thing is , when i go and see her , it 's like she 's not the same person anymore , and she just looks at me like i do n't get it . and i don't . i mean , i 'm not living the same life she is . i do n't see what she sees . you know , we used to be a team , but now it 's just like -- i just ... devon : well , you -- you just adjust . cane : [ scoffs ] devon : i 'm serious . you adjust , and you try and fall in love with the person she 's becoming . cane : i 'll always love her . you know that , right ? devon : i do know that , so i do n't see what the problem is . i do n't see why you 're stressing over something that has n't even happened yet . cane : yeah . devon : she 's always gon na be in your life . lily will always be there , regardless of where she 's at . that 's the reality of it . cane : okay . all right . listen . i , uh ... i need to go . thank you . devon : yeah , man . cane : thanks , man . devon : sure , sure . victor : so , this is how you waste taxpayers ' money ? is that it ? by haranguing and badgering and interrogating an upstanding physician ? you 're slipping . but you already know that , do n't you , christine ? christine : i am gon na have the two of you brought back to your cells for now . victor : my goodness ! how very brave of you . christine : it 's just practical . if you two are n't together , you ca n't sync up your cover stories . nick : you know this is ridiculous . we 're not common criminals . christine : nick , there 's nothing common about this . getaway jets are a very newman spin on things . victor : ohh , i see . the getaway jet . christine : officer , if you 'd please escort these gentlemen to their cells ? thank you . victor : all right . victoria : dad ! nick ! christine : wait , wait , wait . victoria : what 's going on ? christine : excuse me . victoria : well , what 's happening ? how -- how long has my father been here ? christine : i 'm really sorry . i just do n't have the time to answer your questions right now . nate : hey . i do n't think ... hastings realizes we 're on his side . you might want to have a discussion with the good doctor . victoria : nate 's been arrested , too ? where 's my mother ? rey : she 's -- victoria : i need to know where my mother is . rey : she 's under a doctor 's care , and safe . victoria : what doctor ? where ? rey : i 'm handling an investigation . & victoria : tell me where my mother is ! or do i have to go to the press to get you to behave like a human being ? rey : your mother 's at memorial , where she should have been all along . victoria : [ sighs ] well , her doctor 's here ? wh - why ? what has he been charged with ? rey : that 's none of your business . victoria : uh , my mother almost died , and for all i know , she still could . what have you done with her ? rey : your mother is under medical care . but nate , nick , and victor were found with her , which basically amounts to kidnapping . but the arrests have not been made public , so what are you doing here ? victoria : i - i came because of reed , my son . rey : what , is -- is he missing ? do you want to file a report ? victoria : no , no , no . i -- he 's just worried about his grandmother , very much so , and i thought maybe he came to see if there 's any news . rey : well , grandma is safe , but grandpa is another story altogether . wait . i have some more questions for you . victoria : arrest me , then . otherwise , i have to tell my family what 's going on . no ? good . uh , sorry . no visitors . protective custody . victoria : that 's my mother in there . nicole newman ? i 'm victoria newman . i just want to see for myself that she 's safe . i have my orders . victoria : so , what are you telling me , that -- that she 's your prisoner ? is that what you 're saying ? mom ! mom , they 're not letting me in to talk to you . are you okay ? ma'am , i 'm gon na have to ask you to leave . nikki : i 'm -- i 'm okay , honey . where is your father ? victoria : he and nick are at the station , and they need help . victoria : you tell your boss that he is not getting away with this . christine : detective rosales is right . your loyalty is misplaced . i do n't think you understand the seriousness of your situation . nate : well , waking up in a jail cell has a way of making things very clear . and one thing that i do know is that this is not about me . it 's about victor newman . christine : okay , well , detective rosales thinks you were along for the ride . upholding your oath . he 's sympathetic . my side is the law . bringing cases . cases i can win . and you were part of that kidnapping . it 's a fact . it happened . so if you have any concern for your well - being -- nate : my concern is for my patients , okay ? and you still have n't told me where she is , or who is looking out for her . now , one professional to another , how is it going to look if something happens to nikki newman -- for the gcpd or the d.a . 's office ? christine : okay , but nikki 's best interests are being seen to . is anyone looking out for yours ? nate : you have your priorities , and i have mine . christine : okay , you -- y - you 're right . you ... you should see nikki . nate : and what 's that mean ? christine : that means you will be brought to your patient to examine her . nate : so , all of a sudden , i 'm not under arrest ? christine : [ stammers ] allowances can be made . i 'll handle things with detective rosales . [ sighs ] w - we 'll be right back , okay ? we 're gon na go check on the victim . let 's go . rey : looks like you and i are making a habit of this . [ sighs ] [ sighs ] nick : [ sighs ] this is cute . and productive . i can see why they recruited you all the way from miami . rey : you know , i thought we were on the same page last night . nick : yet here we are . with me in cuffs . where did we go wrong ? rey : maybe when you helped your father abduct your mother , and watched from an airfield as he taxied to take her out of the country . nick : [ scoffs ] is that what you think happened ? rey : until you tell me otherwise . nick : you want to hear about victor ? rey : [ sighs ] fathers took up a lot of our conversation last night . consider this more of the same . nick : ah , so that 's the angle you 're going with ? life must be rough with a father like mine . look , do i want to charge you as an accessory ? not really . i 'd rather see you as a witness for the prosecution . nick : for kidnapping . gotcha . or are we talking about something more serious ? rey : you tell me . i know what you want . i know what this is about . so let 's just -- let 's just cut to the chase . [ sighs ] i 'm not helping you . rey : [ sighs ] nate : okay . [ sighs ] any dizziness ? nausea ? shortness of breath ? nikki : [ sighs ] nate : okay , good . you are doing great , and your vitals are in their target range . but you 've been through massive trauma and major surgery . now is not the time to play hero and pretend how tough you are , okay ? so if you 're feeling pain , let someone know . do n't push yourself . if i do n't get a chance to speak with your doctor , i want you to know -- nikki : what are you talking about ? you 're my doctor . nate : i 'm , uh -- i 'm facing attempted - kidnapping charges . nikki : oh , that is absolutely ridiculous . christine : we 're here for the sake of the patient , not the conversation . nate : look , i 'll try to get your on - call doctor up to speed , okay ? but in case i do n't speak to him or her , i want you to -- christine : all right , you know what , um , that 's enough . would you mind taking the doctor out in the hallway ? christine : the patient and i need a moment . nate : wait , what ? you 're going to question her , are n't you ? did you not hear what i just said ? my patient needs her rest . nikki : i 'll be fine . thank you , nate . for everything . [ door closes ] nikki : so . who is my doctor accused of supposedly kidnapping ? oh , let me guess . he and my son helped victor with this so - called abduction . christine : serious charges , nikki . i mean , you just know that dr . hastings is the kind of guy who has lived his life trying to do the right thing , and now look at him . he 's in police custody . it 's him and nick who i feel sorry for . victor lives to flout the law , and if he takes someone down with him , then what else is new ? nikki : your case relies on me being the victim of a kidnapping , and that never happened . i begged victor to get me out of here . i left of my own free will . victoria : [ sighs ] mom looked okay . you can tell that she was weak , but she seemed like herself . and dad and nick , they 're in jail , though , with nate . i could n't talk to them . and there was an officer keeping me out of mom 's room . i could n't talk to her , either . meanwhile , i have absolutely no idea where reed is -- billy : hold on . hey . victoria : ... or what he 's doing . billy : slow down . first things first . your mom is fine , right ? and your dad is back in town ? victoria : i think so . uh , yes , but in handcuffs . billy : okay . but he is back ? victoria : [ sighs ] yes . this is what rey wanted all along -- dad in custody . if he could n't get him for murder , he would be happy to lock him up for kidnapping . billy : okay . but the important thing is , your mom is fine . and nick and your dad , they can handle themselves . now , can you tell me what happened with reed ? victoria : i do n't know . he was n't at the station . i do n't know where he is or what he 's doing , and he has not turned himself in yet . billy : sit down . victoria : [ sighs ] billy , come on . billy : no , come on . i need you to help me try and understand what happened , okay ? reed was driving . was he -- was he drinking ? victoria : no . he said no . and i believe him . but charlie ashby was , so reed drove charlie 's car on a suspended license , and then they hit something . billy : they hit a person , vick . victoria : i know , but they panicked . they were just more concerned about not getting busted . they would never have -- have left someone by the side of the road . billy : okay . that 's probably true . and ... [ sighs ] i know this must be eating him alive . i mean , when i told him that your mom was in the e.r . , he ran out of here . victoria : i do n't even think he knew then why mom was in the hospital . god , billy ! i do n't know what to do . i saw rey at the station , and i thought about telling him . i wanted to get in front of this , just for reed 's sake . billy : why did n't you ? victoria : because ! are you serious ? it 's a felony hit - and - run . billy : yes , i know . and he has to accept responsibility for that , and face the consequences . victoria : if i tell rey , i will be ending reed 's life as he knows it . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . billy : [ sighs ] telling reed to lie about this , vick , is not the answer . victoria : this is n't a lie . it 's an inaction . billy : how are you justifying this ? knowing what i went through with delia ? how -- how are you doing that ? victoria : it is n't like that . delia ... we lost her . adam knew what he did , and he never said anything about it . [ sighs ] but reed is completely spinning out . billy : that 's a good thing . he should be spinning out . he 's gon na have to face the consequences of what he 's done . victoria : then let him do it from home in his own room , not jail . billy , please . he 's not even in college yet . with this on top of his suspended license , we 're talking about time -- actual prison time . billy : let 's just -- victoria : and they 're not just gon na throw him in juvie . billy : ... table this for a second , okay , just for now . victoria : i have to talk to cane . billy : whoa . hold on a second . why are you doing that ? victoria : because i want to find out how he 's handling this with charlie . billy : does cane even know ? victoria : well , if he does n't , he 's gon na find out . and if he does know and he kept it from me [ scoffs ] i am gon na give him -- billy : vick , i 'm not gon na defend him , but his wife is in prison because of a car accident . victoria : i have to go talk to him . billy : okay . then i 'm gon na go with you . victoria : oh , billy , please just let me handle this on my own . i do n't need you to hold my hand . billy : i 'm not holding your hand . victoria : i can do this . the babysitter will be here soon , and you can get back to your day . billy : i 'm always here for you , okay , and i 'm always on your side . [ sighs ] nikki : victor came to me on christmas eve . he held my hand , and he willed me to come back to him . read my chart . speak with the medical staff . i was dying . but victor came to me . and as you can see , i 'm still here . when i ... regained ... consciousness , i ... i panicked . because it -- it 's no secret that you 've made it your life 's mission to find something to pin on victor the last few years . christine : that 's not the case . nikki : please , do me the courtesy of letting me speak . since i am the so- called victim here . i know ... that you and the police department are desperate to blame victor for j.t . 's death . and i could n't let my husband be in danger simply because he loves me . because he cared enough to come to me . so i insisted that we leave the country . i told him that we would work everything out together to clear his name , and then we would come home . but instead victor was arrested , and i am -- i am being treated like a prisoner . christine : so you came out of a coma ... and immediately formulated a plan to leave the country ? nikki : i had to . i begged victor to do this for me . for my own peace of mind . it truly was an act of love for him ... to go along with it . christine : [ stammers ] you really think anyone 's gon na believe this ? nikki : put me in front of a judge . let 's see ... who he or she believes . i am nobody 's victim , christine . certainly not my husband 's . and obviously nate and nicholas are innocent , as well . but if you pursue this , i expect that they will sue you for wrongful prosecution , and i will be their lead witness . it 's not worth all that . christine : well , i -- it 's quite a performance . nikki : it 's the truth . christine : i 'll be in touch . nikki : uh , please get that guard away from my door . unless you want people to think i 'm being a prisoner here -- christine : nikki , the guard is here for your safety . it 's a police - department matter . devon . hi . devon : hi . i was told by victoria that my cousin was arrested , and the desk sergeant said i could find him in your custody . and i want to know why he 's with an armed officer . nate : where i work , with my colleagues walking by , seeing me like this . devon : makes no sense at all . nate : it does not . devon : you know i can have gc buzz down here in two minutes ? christine : look , i 'm not gon na pursue charges against dr . hastings . devon : then what 's going on ? christine : i 'll recommend detective rosales release him on his own recognizance . nate : oh . what happened in there ? christine : you got what you wanted . you 're lucky . i 've got to get to work . cane : what makes you even think it 's any of your business if charlie was drinking last week ? victoria : [ slams counter ] good . so you 're not denying it . that 's something , at least . cane : this is none of your business . victoria : if it involves reed , it involves me . cane : okay . all right . so reed was the friend who drove charlie home . is that right ? victoria : oh , please . like you had no idea . cane : no , i do n't have any idea . no , i didn't . okay ? look , charlie 's girlfriend dumped him , all right , so he had a couple of beers , and reed drove him home . i will deal with my son . victoria : you really had no idea ? i mean , do you pay attention to your children at all ? [ sighs ] there was an accident that night . and reed finally confessed . cane : what 'd he confess to ? what , they had a fender - bender ? it 's okay . victoria : it has to do with my mom . that accident nearly cost her her life . cane : [ sighs ] the kids were the ones involved in the hit - and - run . okay . victoria : is this you pretending again that you had no idea ? the same way that you did with the brash & sassy hockey video ? cane : see , this is why i do n't want your son around my kids , okay ? this is why . & first he gets a dui . but that 's not good enough for him , is it ? so what 's he do ? he upgrades to a hit - and - run . and what do you want to do ? you want to come in here and pin this on my family ? is that what 's happening ? victoria : reed would not have been driving if charlie was n't drinking . cane : so he has no free will or common sense , is that right ? victoria : reed wanted to come forward with this . charlie tried to talk him out of it . cane : okay . all right . so i see what 's happening here , all right . this is charlie 's fault . i mean , the kid who was sitting in the passenger seat . is that right ? victoria : charlie wanted to lie and cover things up . i wonder where he got that from ? [ scoffs ] he 's exactly like you , cane . people are managing their type 2 diabetes cane : listen , you and i may have had our differences , but do n't come into my house and trash my son , all right ? victoria : you 're really quite the role model , are n't you ? this whole , uh , mess with juliet , how you practically bankrupted brash & sassy . and do n't think that i did n't hear about what happened after hilary died , how you tried to get lily to cover up the fact that she ran that red light . charlie was in the car then . cane : that 's enough . victoria : how did you do that , anyway ? did you ask charlie to lie for you ? & cane : that 's enough . victoria : no . my son might end up in jail because you do n't have the first clue how to be a parent ! cane : it was your son who got the dui , okay , and you want to come blame me for being a bad parent ? it was my daughter that told the truth when your son tried to sneak into nick 's club on the night it burned down . victoria : she told the truth , and so did lily , but lily 's not here right now , and now those poor children only have you for guidance ! cane : do you ever get sick and tired of being this self - righteous , do you ? i know what you think of me . you 've told me over and over and over . victoria : am i wrong ? ! look at you . cane : ohh . victoria : you 're so weak and cowardly . how many people have you taken down with you almost ? billy , me , the kids , an entire company , and lily . cane : you can leave my wife out of this . victoria : she takes you back time after time , and your marriage is awful . cane : leave my wife out of this . victoria : and here she is in prison . she 's decent and loyal . and when she 's done serving her sentence , she gets to come back to this , to you ? cane : yeah . christine : [ sighs ] so , nick held tough . rey : and nikki went all newman on you . but [ sighs ] letting the doctor go ? christine : oh , he was n't gon na cave . and it became very clear he does n't know anything we don't . rey : always was a long shot . christine : i think all three sensed what we were really after . rey : just one new piece of evidence . one piece linking victor to j.t . 's murder . christine : yeah , i guess it was just too much to hope that victor would implicate himself to save nick from prosecution . rey : i know father / son issues , and those are some serious issues . christine : yeah , and nikki , willing to tell anyone that would listen that leaving the country was her idea . rey : we got nothing . so we pivot . christine : what are you thinking ? rey : squeezing the supporting players was a waste of time . so we just go for it . we bring victor in , and we charge him for hellstrom 's homicide . christine : i need more supporting evidence . rey : we have victor 's gun , we have a shirt with j.t . 's blood on it at the newman stables . christine : [ scoffs ] rey : we have victor on `` gc buzz , `` threatening to kill j.t . christine : okay . yeah , yeah . rey : that is means and motives right there . christine : we do n't have a body . rey : you and i can both cite cases where a body was never recovered , but a guilty verdict was still handed down . christine : without a body , we do n't have a time of death , so we do n't know if victor killed j.t . personally or he arranged a hit . rey : we can still make the arrest without answering those questions . we work with what we have , and then we strengthen the case . christine : oh , my god . it 's such a risk . rey : if you let him walk , we will never see victor newman again . he will be on a jet before that door is shut . it time for action , not caution . we 're not gon na get another shot . victoria : how can you even stand yourself , knowing that your wife deserves so much better than you ? she is so much braver than you are . she is the one who 's in prison right now , while you are just spiraling . i mean , she probably prays every night that you do n't screw up this family the same way you screwed up your marriage over and over again ! cane : look how jealous you are ! you are so jealous . you ca n't stand the fact that lily and i have a real relationship , that we have a marriage that 's worked , and we have a life together . i mean , look at you . how many boyfriends have you had ? how many fiancés and husbands have you had since i 've met you ? how many times has billy run away from you ? and i would even bet that j.t . 's not even dead . he probably went off the grid because he ca n't stand being around you , and just wanted to get away from you . victoria : you do n't know anything about j.t . ! cane : oh , really ? yeah , i do . i know he wanted to make up with you . but he probably did n't come back groveling and begging the way you like it . 'cause you ca n't stand that , can you , 'cause you want a man to have to eat dirt to try and make you happy . victoria : j.t . was a liar . cane : okay . victoria : and you know what i 'm guessing ? i 'm guessing that that 's the kind of man that you admire . cane : yeah , okay . victoria : i wonder what lily is thinking right now ? i wonder if she finally realizes that she could do so much better than you . cane : okay , spin this . spin this however you need to do it , okay ? 'cause deep down inside , you think everyone 's as cold and as empty and as lonely as you are . rey : you 're free to go . [ sighs ] nick : so that 's it ? no apology ? rey : nate 's already been released . nick : so you admit it , then . there 's no kidnapping . rey : we have reassessed the information , and now we move on . nick : where 's my dad ? rey : he 'll be processed shortly . nick : well , then i 'll wait . rey : you made a lot of noise about being here , and now you want to stay ? i do n't think so . nick : is there some reason you want me gone , rey ? rey : are you a lawyer ? a cop ? under arrest ? no . so if you would n't mind ... christine : phew ... rey : you ready to get this over with ? victor : we done here ? i did n't kidnap my wife , but i want to spend time with her immediately , all right ? unless , of course , your outrageous behavior has put her into a tailspin and caused her to have a relapse . christine : nikki made it very clear there was no abduction . victor : and you knew that , did n't you , christine ? victor : so , are we done here ? christine : what you do n't know is there has been a decision made on another outstanding case . victor newman , you 're being charged with the murder of j.t . hellstrom . rey : you have the right to remain silent . anything you say will and can -- victor : save it , young man . rey : ... be used against you in a court of law . you have the right to an attorney . if you can not afford an attorney , one will be provided for you .
at victoria 's house she leaves a message for reed . billy shows up and she tells him about reed 's confession . at the police station nate , nick and victor are in separate cells . they are then all brought before rey and christine . victor demands to be booked or released . he then demands to know where his wife is . rey tells him nikki is getting the care she needs and that what they did was classified as kidnapping . nate is brought into the interrogation room where rey attempts to intimidate him . nate defends himself in that he was caring for his patient and that he knows rey is just trying to get info from him on victor . nick and victor are taken back to their cells as victoria arrives . she demands to know where her mother is and rey tells her she is getting the medical care she needs . he asks what she is doing here and victoria replies that she thought reed may come to the police station asking about his grandmother . christine takes nate to schristian while nick refuses to help rey . meanwhile cane comes to at devon 's . cane tells devon he just needed to forget one night . devon assures him lily will get out of prison and their lives will then resume but cane tells him she 's a different person .
<s>[INST] [ previously_on ] [ loud thud ] reed : [ gasps ] what was that ? ! charlie : i do n't know . glad i got here before you blurted something out . reed : i do n't know how much longer i can live with this secret . cane : yeah , this single - parent thing , it 's like every day , i 'm getting punched in the stomach . it 's like there 's this hole inside me , and i ca n't fill it in . all : happy new year ! [ all cheering ] nick : okay , mom , we 're here to tuck you in . did you do this ? did you take my mom ? nate : it 's not what it looks like . sneaking her out was not my idea . i could lose my medical license over this . i could lose everything . nick : then why do it ? nate : victor . reed : whoever kidnapped her was not the person who was driving the car . victoria : how do you know that ? reed : because it was me . i was driving . victor : i did n't kill j.t . hellstrom . once i 've cleared my name , i will bring your mother back to genoa city . rey : all right ! nobody move ! hands where i can see them ! victor newman , you 're under arrest . nick : [ sighs ] rey : it 's time . we 're ready . [ sniffles , clears throat ] we ready to do this ? christine : [ sighs ] i 'm not convinced this is our best shot . rey : we wo n't know until we take it . christine : well , there are risks involved . rey : there always are with anything worthwhile . and this is very worthwhile . nikki : [ grunts ] [ sighs ] [ grunts ] [ sighs ] [ sighs ] nurse ! [ groans ] do you need medical assistance ? nikki : no . i need my husband . i need my family . the phone that was here before is gone . orders from detective rosales , ma'am . nikki : what , am i a -- a prisoner here ? what is wrong with everybody ? [ sighs ] [ door closes ] nikki : [ grunts ] oh ... [ sighs ] christine : here they are . rey : oh , it looks like santa made a late delivery . three world travelers . nick : is this where we get our phone calls ? or arrested instead of just being held on suspicion of , what , some trumped - up b.s . ? victor : where 's my wife ? anything happens to her because of you , you 're in trouble . rey : that is an interesting take , considering you 're the one who removed her from memorial , shoved her in an ambulance , and transferred her to a jet . not a medevac chopper , a private jet that looks nothing like a hospital . you abducted a woman in a fragile condition . those are serious charges . victor : mm - hmm . so you book me now so i can make bail and see my wife , or you release me . rey : you sure that 's my only option ? are -- are we still in that window ? nick : window for what ? christine : police can hold a suspect for 72 hours before charges are filed . that gives them time to investigate the crimes and advise the d.a . 's office for official charges . nate : wait , are -- are you serious ? i have a job . patients . rey : well , this is where i suggest , if you care so much about your patients , you do n't do something that 's gon na get you arrested . we got plenty of time to dig into this , and that 's what we 're gon na do . we 're gon na be meticulous , and go by the book . victor : where 's my wife ? ! rey : rest assured , mr . newman , we do n't lock up victims . your wife is getting the care that she needs , and that 's not on a plane . victoria : [ sighs ] where are you ? we need to talk about this . now . please . [ doorbell rings ] yeah , come in . it 's open . reed , listen . wherever you are , just -- just stay put and call me , and i will come to you . [ sighs ] thank god . billy : hey . what 's , uh -- what 's going on ? i got here as soon as i could . victoria : i - i need you on kid duty . billy : okay . where 's reed ? victoria : he 's not here . which is the problem . i need to stop him before he does anything stupid . billy : whoa ! hold on a second , here . is there news about your mom ? what 's going on ? victoria : yes . [ sighs ] no . billy : vick -- victoria : reed was driving the car that hit my mother . charlie ashby had been drinking , and he wanted to drive , but he could n't , so reed drove for him , and they did n't say anything until now . reed told me everything last night . but i 'm afraid that he 's gone to the police to confess . billy : hey -- cane : [ sighs ] [ sighs ] [ groans ] [ sniffling ] oh ... [ groans ] [ sighs ] am i dead ? devon : oh , you look close to it . cane : [ sighs ] did i , uh ... devon : pass out on my couch before midnight ? yep . cane : oh , sam . i 've got to get to sam . devon : the twins had bridgette sleep over . they took care of it . it 's cool . cane : [ scoffs ] i suppose they want to call me mr . role model , huh ? victor : so , you booked us for what ? kidnapping my own wife ? rey : did she sign herself out of the hospital ? request a private jet on an airstrip with a flight plan out of the country , away from her friends , family , and medical supervision ? yeah , no . l - let me be more clear on this . under state law , removing a patient from a hospital without that person 's or hospital 's written consent is classified as kidnapping . victor : mm . rey : even if that person is your wife , who was , at the time , under the legal responsibility of memorial . victor : mm . rey : so unless there 's something you want to get off your chest ... and then , of course , there are your accomplices -- a - a doctor and a business leader . only the classiest of minions for victor newman . you know how to pick 'em . final charges are up to the d.a . , of course . christine : right now , we 're also looking at kidnapping , not to mention conspiracy . those are the big ones . rey : decades behind bars . unless there 's some reason you want us to cut you a break on this . nick : we want our lawyers . now . victor : no , son . do n't worry about it . this ambitious young detective is feeling his oats , right ? so he 's trying to play a game with us . not gon na lower myself . rey : oh , no attorneys ? all right . that -- that -- that works for me . what about you , doc ? these two have rap sheets you would n't believe , but this is new territory for you . nate : i 'm fine . rey : good . then you and i are gon na have a very nice , long chitchat . you 're first . come with me . the hard work you put into lowering your additional sponsorship rey : thank you . do you want a water ? coffee ? i 'm sure you 're hungry after spending all night in lock - up . i could probably find you an energy bar somewhere . nate : we gon na do this or what ? rey : just so we 're clear , i know that you are not the architect of this drama . you 're a doctor . `` first , do no harm , `` and all that . and victor newman , he is , uh , rich and powerful . i could see how it would be easy to get sucked into it . i 'm sure he made you feel like the noble hero by stepping into this drama with his wife , but ... look where you are now . at the gcpd . possibly facing even more jail time . charges . conviction . prison time . you can forget about being a concierge doctor to the rich and powerful . you 're gon na be watching guys get their heads split open in the chow line . nate : i took an oath to look after my patients . rey : cops take an oath , too . that 's why i stopped that plane during taxi . brought your patient back into the hospital where she belongs , and threw your asses in a cell . nate : when it comes to looking after my patient 's health and safety , i will not apologize . where she goes , i go . rey : yeah ? yeah ? o - out of the country with victor newman , who is a person of interest in a murder investigation ? and your patient just had major surgery ? does any of that -- any of it at all -- sound like a good idea to you ? nate : i 'm charged with nikki 's care . victor was worried about her safety . he did n't want her to stay a target of whoever did this to her . so he made the decision to remove her from the hospital and out of harm 's way . now , was i going to let her go without medical supervision ? no , i was not . so if this is where we are , then this is where we are . rey : i do n't want you to be here . you are smart enough to know that . nate : i do . i do . i understand that i am just a pawn . that you are trying to move me around the board and get me to tell you whatever it is that you want to hear about victor . but all i know is that you are keeping me from my patient . the one that you are calling a victim . and , see , the thing is , the only one making her out to be a victim right now is you . devon : hell , it was new year 's eve , and you got drunk along with the rest of the world . so you 're not special in this . cane : yeah , but i 'm a parent . devon : yeah , but you 've been dealing with a lot , man . you have a wife who just spent the holidays behind bars . cane : right . which means that she 's the one who 's suffering , not me . i 'm out here with my job and my kids and my bed , which i did n't sleep in last night . devon : well ... i do n't know what you want me to say to you . you can keep beating yourself up about it , or you can think about why you put yourself through that last night . cane : because i miss lily . and i just wanted to forget abut everything for one night . that 's all . devon : i understand that . of course i do . but , i mean , she 's gon na come back in the fall . cane : it 's january 1st . devon : i know what month it is . but i 'm just saying this because you need to focus on the long haul and think about it . 'cause she 's gon na come back to you . she 's gon na get out . she 's gon na come back . you guys are gon na resume life . pick right back up where you left off . cane : is that what 's gon na happen , is it ? you know , the thing is , when i go and see her , it 's like she 's not the same person anymore , and she just looks at me like i do n't get it . and i don't . i mean , i 'm not living the same life she is . i do n't see what she sees . you know , we used to be a team , but now it 's just like -- i just ... devon : well , you -- you just adjust . cane : [ scoffs ] devon : i 'm serious . you adjust , and you try and fall in love with the person she 's becoming . cane : i 'll always love her . you know that , right ? devon : i do know that , so i do n't see what the problem is . i do n't see why you 're stressing over something that has n't even happened yet . cane : yeah . devon : she 's always gon na be in your life . lily will always be there , regardless of where she 's at . that 's the reality of it . cane : okay . all right . listen . i , uh ... i need to go . thank you . devon : yeah , man . cane : thanks , man . devon : sure , sure . victor : so , this is how you waste taxpayers ' money ? is that it ? by haranguing and badgering and interrogating an upstanding physician ? you 're slipping . but you already know that , do n't you , christine ? christine : i am gon na have the two of you brought back to your cells for now . victor : my goodness ! how very brave of you . christine : it 's just practical . if you two are n't together , you ca n't sync up your cover stories . nick : you know this is ridiculous . we 're not common criminals . christine : nick , there 's nothing common about this . getaway jets are a very newman spin on things . victor : ohh , i see . the getaway jet . christine : officer , if you 'd please escort these gentlemen to their cells ? thank you . victor : all right . victoria : dad ! nick ! christine : wait , wait , wait . victoria : what 's going on ? christine : excuse me . victoria : well , what 's happening ? how -- how long has my father been here ? christine : i 'm really sorry . i just do n't have the time to answer your questions right now . nate : hey . i do n't think ... hastings realizes we 're on his side . you might want to have a discussion with the good doctor . victoria : nate 's been arrested , too ? where 's my mother ? rey : she 's -- victoria : i need to know where my mother is . rey : she 's under a doctor 's care , and safe . victoria : what doctor ? where ? rey : i 'm handling an investigation . & victoria : tell me where my mother is ! or do i have to go to the press to get you to behave like a human being ? rey : your mother 's at memorial , where she should have been all along . victoria : [ sighs ] well , her doctor 's here ? wh - why ? what has he been charged with ? rey : that 's none of your business . victoria : uh , my mother almost died , and for all i know , she still could . what have you done with her ? rey : your mother is under medical care . but nate , nick , and victor were found with her , which basically amounts to kidnapping . but the arrests have not been made public , so what are you doing here ? victoria : i - i came because of reed , my son . rey : what , is -- is he missing ? do you want to file a report ? victoria : no , no , no . i -- he 's just worried about his grandmother , very much so , and i thought maybe he came to see if there 's any news . rey : well , grandma is safe , but grandpa is another story altogether . wait . i have some more questions for you . victoria : arrest me , then . otherwise , i have to tell my family what 's going on . no ? good . uh , sorry . no visitors . protective custody . victoria : that 's my mother in there . nicole newman ? i 'm victoria newman . i just want to see for myself that she 's safe . i have my orders . victoria : so , what are you telling me , that -- that she 's your prisoner ? is that what you 're saying ? mom ! mom , they 're not letting me in to talk to you . are you okay ? ma'am , i 'm gon na have to ask you to leave . nikki : i 'm -- i 'm okay , honey . where is your father ? victoria : he and nick are at the station , and they need help . victoria : you tell your boss that he is not getting away with this . christine : detective rosales is right . your loyalty is misplaced . i do n't think you understand the seriousness of your situation . nate : well , waking up in a jail cell has a way of making things very clear . and one thing that i do know is that this is not about me . it 's about victor newman . christine : okay , well , detective rosales thinks you were along for the ride . upholding your oath . he 's sympathetic . my side is the law . bringing cases . cases i can win . and you were part of that kidnapping . it 's a fact . it happened . so if you have any concern for your well - being -- nate : my concern is for my patients , okay ? and you still have n't told me where she is , or who is looking out for her . now , one professional to another , how is it going to look if something happens to nikki newman -- for the gcpd or the d.a . 's office ? christine : okay , but nikki 's best interests are being seen to . is anyone looking out for yours ? nate : you have your priorities , and i have mine . christine : okay , you -- y - you 're right . you ... you should see nikki . nate : and what 's that mean ? christine : that means you will be brought to your patient to examine her . nate : so , all of a sudden , i 'm not under arrest ? christine : [ stammers ] allowances can be made . i 'll handle things with detective rosales . [ sighs ] w - we 'll be right back , okay ? we 're gon na go check on the victim . let 's go . rey : looks like you and i are making a habit of this . [ sighs ] [ sighs ] nick : [ sighs ] this is cute . and productive . i can see why they recruited you all the way from miami . rey : you know , i thought we were on the same page last night . nick : yet here we are . with me in cuffs . where did we go wrong ? rey : maybe when you helped your father abduct your mother , and watched from an airfield as he taxied to take her out of the country . nick : [ scoffs ] is that what you think happened ? rey : until you tell me otherwise . nick : you want to hear about victor ? rey : [ sighs ] fathers took up a lot of our conversation last night . consider this more of the same . nick : ah , so that 's the angle you 're going with ? life must be rough with a father like mine . look , do i want to charge you as an accessory ? not really . i 'd rather see you as a witness for the prosecution . nick : for kidnapping . gotcha . or are we talking about something more serious ? rey : you tell me . i know what you want . i know what this is about . so let 's just -- let 's just cut to the chase . [ sighs ] i 'm not helping you . rey : [ sighs ] nate : okay . [ sighs ] any dizziness ? nausea ? shortness of breath ? nikki : [ sighs ] nate : okay , good . you are doing great , and your vitals are in their target range . but you 've been through massive trauma and major surgery . now is not the time to play hero and pretend how tough you are , okay ? so if you 're feeling pain , let someone know . do n't push yourself . if i do n't get a chance to speak with your doctor , i want you to know -- nikki : what are you talking about ? you 're my doctor . nate : i 'm , uh -- i 'm facing attempted - kidnapping charges . nikki : oh , that is absolutely ridiculous . christine : we 're here for the sake of the patient , not the conversation . nate : look , i 'll try to get your on - call doctor up to speed , okay ? but in case i do n't speak to him or her , i want you to -- christine : all right , you know what , um , that 's enough . would you mind taking the doctor out in the hallway ? christine : the patient and i need a moment . nate : wait , what ? you 're going to question her , are n't you ? did you not hear what i just said ? my patient needs her rest . nikki : i 'll be fine . thank you , nate . for everything . [ door closes ] nikki : so . who is my doctor accused of supposedly kidnapping ? oh , let me guess . he and my son helped victor with this so - called abduction . christine : serious charges , nikki . i mean , you just know that dr . hastings is the kind of guy who has lived his life trying to do the right thing , and now look at him . he 's in police custody . it 's him and nick who i feel sorry for . victor lives to flout the law , and if he takes someone down with him , then what else is new ? nikki : your case relies on me being the victim of a kidnapping , and that never happened . i begged victor to get me out of here . i left of my own free will . victoria : [ sighs ] mom looked okay . you can tell that she was weak , but she seemed like herself . and dad and nick , they 're in jail , though , with nate . i could n't talk to them . and there was an officer keeping me out of mom 's room . i could n't talk to her , either . meanwhile , i have absolutely no idea where reed is -- billy : hold on . hey . victoria : ... or what he 's doing . billy : slow down . first things first . your mom is fine , right ? and your dad is back in town ? victoria : i think so . uh , yes , but in handcuffs . billy : okay . but he is back ? victoria : [ sighs ] yes . this is what rey wanted all along -- dad in custody . if he could n't get him for murder , he would be happy to lock him up for kidnapping . billy : okay . but the important thing is , your mom is fine . and nick and your dad , they can handle themselves . now , can you tell me what happened with reed ? victoria : i do n't know . he was n't at the station . i do n't know where he is or what he 's doing , and he has not turned himself in yet . billy : sit down . victoria : [ sighs ] billy , come on . billy : no , come on . i need you to help me try and understand what happened , okay ? reed was driving . was he -- was he drinking ? victoria : no . he said no . and i believe him . but charlie ashby was , so reed drove charlie 's car on a suspended license , and then they hit something . billy : they hit a person , vick . victoria : i know , but they panicked . they were just more concerned about not getting busted . they would never have -- have left someone by the side of the road . billy : okay . that 's probably true . and ... [ sighs ] i know this must be eating him alive . i mean , when i told him that your mom was in the e.r . , he ran out of here . victoria : i do n't even think he knew then why mom was in the hospital . god , billy ! i do n't know what to do . i saw rey at the station , and i thought about telling him . i wanted to get in front of this , just for reed 's sake . billy : why did n't you ? victoria : because ! are you serious ? it 's a felony hit - and - run . billy : yes , i know . and he has to accept responsibility for that , and face the consequences . victoria : if i tell rey , i will be ending reed 's life as he knows it . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . billy : [ sighs ] telling reed to lie about this , vick , is not the answer . victoria : this is n't a lie . it 's an inaction . billy : how are you justifying this ? knowing what i went through with delia ? how -- how are you doing that ? victoria : it is n't like that . delia ... we lost her . adam knew what he did , and he never said anything about it . [ sighs ] but reed is completely spinning out . billy : that 's a good thing . he should be spinning out . he 's gon na have to face the consequences of what he 's done . victoria : then let him do it from home in his own room , not jail . billy , please . he 's not even in college yet . with this on top of his suspended license , we 're talking about time -- actual prison time . billy : let 's just -- victoria : and they 're not just gon na throw him in juvie . billy : ... table this for a second , okay , just for now . victoria : i have to talk to cane . billy : whoa . hold on a second . why are you doing that ? victoria : because i want to find out how he 's handling this with charlie . billy : does cane even know ? victoria : well , if he does n't , he 's gon na find out . and if he does know and he kept it from me [ scoffs ] i am gon na give him -- billy : vick , i 'm not gon na defend him , but his wife is in prison because of a car accident . victoria : i have to go talk to him . billy : okay . then i 'm gon na go with you . victoria : oh , billy , please just let me handle this on my own . i do n't need you to hold my hand . billy : i 'm not holding your hand . victoria : i can do this . the babysitter will be here soon , and you can get back to your day . billy : i 'm always here for you , okay , and i 'm always on your side . [ sighs ] nikki : victor came to me on christmas eve . he held my hand , and he willed me to come back to him . read my chart . speak with the medical staff . i was dying . but victor came to me . and as you can see , i 'm still here . when i ... regained ... consciousness , i ... i panicked . because it -- it 's no secret that you 've made it your life 's mission to find something to pin on victor the last few years . christine : that 's not the case . nikki : please , do me the courtesy of letting me speak . since i am the so- called victim here . i know ... that you and the police department are desperate to blame victor for j.t . 's death . and i could n't let my husband be in danger simply because he loves me . because he cared enough to come to me . so i insisted that we leave the country . i told him that we would work everything out together to clear his name , and then we would come home . but instead victor was arrested , and i am -- i am being treated like a prisoner . christine : so you came out of a coma ... and immediately formulated a plan to leave the country ? nikki : i had to . i begged victor to do this for me . for my own peace of mind . it truly was an act of love for him ... to go along with it . christine : [ stammers ] you really think anyone 's gon na believe this ? nikki : put me in front of a judge . let 's see ... who he or she believes . i am nobody 's victim , christine . certainly not my husband 's . and obviously nate and nicholas are innocent , as well . but if you pursue this , i expect that they will sue you for wrongful prosecution , and i will be their lead witness . it 's not worth all that . christine : well , i -- it 's quite a performance . nikki : it 's the truth . christine : i 'll be in touch . nikki : uh , please get that guard away from my door . unless you want people to think i 'm being a prisoner here -- christine : nikki , the guard is here for your safety . it 's a police - department matter . devon . hi . devon : hi . i was told by victoria that my cousin was arrested , and the desk sergeant said i could find him in your custody . and i want to know why he 's with an armed officer . nate : where i work , with my colleagues walking by , seeing me like this . devon : makes no sense at all . nate : it does not . devon : you know i can have gc buzz down here in two minutes ? christine : look , i 'm not gon na pursue charges against dr . hastings . devon : then what 's going on ? christine : i 'll recommend detective rosales release him on his own recognizance . nate : oh . what happened in there ? christine : you got what you wanted . you 're lucky . i 've got to get to work . cane : what makes you even think it 's any of your business if charlie was drinking last week ? victoria : [ slams counter ] good . so you 're not denying it . that 's something , at least . cane : this is none of your business . victoria : if it involves reed , it involves me . cane : okay . all right . so reed was the friend who drove charlie home . is that right ? victoria : oh , please . like you had no idea . cane : no , i do n't have any idea . no , i didn't . okay ? look , charlie 's girlfriend dumped him , all right , so he had a couple of beers , and reed drove him home . i will deal with my son . victoria : you really had no idea ? i mean , do you pay attention to your children at all ? [ sighs ] there was an accident that night . and reed finally confessed . cane : what 'd he confess to ? what , they had a fender - bender ? it 's okay . victoria : it has to do with my mom . that accident nearly cost her her life . cane : [ sighs ] the kids were the ones involved in the hit - and - run . okay . victoria : is this you pretending again that you had no idea ? the same way that you did with the brash & sassy hockey video ? cane : see , this is why i do n't want your son around my kids , okay ? this is why . & first he gets a dui . but that 's not good enough for him , is it ? so what 's he do ? he upgrades to a hit - and - run . and what do you want to do ? you want to come in here and pin this on my family ? is that what 's happening ? victoria : reed would not have been driving if charlie was n't drinking . cane : so he has no free will or common sense , is that right ? victoria : reed wanted to come forward with this . charlie tried to talk him out of it . cane : okay . all right . so i see what 's happening here , all right . this is charlie 's fault . i mean , the kid who was sitting in the passenger seat . is that right ? victoria : charlie wanted to lie and cover things up . i wonder where he got that from ? [ scoffs ] he 's exactly like you , cane . people are managing their type 2 diabetes cane : listen , you and i may have had our differences , but do n't come into my house and trash my son , all right ? victoria : you 're really quite the role model , are n't you ? this whole , uh , mess with juliet , how you practically bankrupted brash & sassy . and do n't think that i did n't hear about what happened after hilary died , how you tried to get lily to cover up the fact that she ran that red light . charlie was in the car then . cane : that 's enough . victoria : how did you do that , anyway ? did you ask charlie to lie for you ? & cane : that 's enough . victoria : no . my son might end up in jail because you do n't have the first clue how to be a parent ! cane : it was your son who got the dui , okay , and you want to come blame me for being a bad parent ? it was my daughter that told the truth when your son tried to sneak into nick 's club on the night it burned down . victoria : she told the truth , and so did lily , but lily 's not here right now , and now those poor children only have you for guidance ! cane : do you ever get sick and tired of being this self - righteous , do you ? i know what you think of me . you 've told me over and over and over . victoria : am i wrong ? ! look at you . cane : ohh . victoria : you 're so weak and cowardly . how many people have you taken down with you almost ? billy , me , the kids , an entire company , and lily . cane : you can leave my wife out of this . victoria : she takes you back time after time , and your marriage is awful . cane : leave my wife out of this . victoria : and here she is in prison . she 's decent and loyal . and when she 's done serving her sentence , she gets to come back to this , to you ? cane : yeah . christine : [ sighs ] so , nick held tough . rey : and nikki went all newman on you . but [ sighs ] letting the doctor go ? christine : oh , he was n't gon na cave . and it became very clear he does n't know anything we don't . rey : always was a long shot . christine : i think all three sensed what we were really after . rey : just one new piece of evidence . one piece linking victor to j.t . 's murder . christine : yeah , i guess it was just too much to hope that victor would implicate himself to save nick from prosecution . rey : i know father / son issues , and those are some serious issues . christine : yeah , and nikki , willing to tell anyone that would listen that leaving the country was her idea . rey : we got nothing . so we pivot . christine : what are you thinking ? rey : squeezing the supporting players was a waste of time . so we just go for it . we bring victor in , and we charge him for hellstrom 's homicide . christine : i need more supporting evidence . rey : we have victor 's gun , we have a shirt with j.t . 's blood on it at the newman stables . christine : [ scoffs ] rey : we have victor on `` gc buzz , `` threatening to kill j.t . christine : okay . yeah , yeah . rey : that is means and motives right there . christine : we do n't have a body . rey : you and i can both cite cases where a body was never recovered , but a guilty verdict was still handed down . christine : without a body , we do n't have a time of death , so we do n't know if victor killed j.t . personally or he arranged a hit . rey : we can still make the arrest without answering those questions . we work with what we have , and then we strengthen the case . christine : oh , my god . it 's such a risk . rey : if you let him walk , we will never see victor newman again . he will be on a jet before that door is shut . it time for action , not caution . we 're not gon na get another shot . victoria : how can you even stand yourself , knowing that your wife deserves so much better than you ? she is so much braver than you are . she is the one who 's in prison right now , while you are just spiraling . i mean , she probably prays every night that you do n't screw up this family the same way you screwed up your marriage over and over again ! cane : look how jealous you are ! you are so jealous . you ca n't stand the fact that lily and i have a real relationship , that we have a marriage that 's worked , and we have a life together . i mean , look at you . how many boyfriends have you had ? how many fiancés and husbands have you had since i 've met you ? how many times has billy run away from you ? and i would even bet that j.t . 's not even dead . he probably went off the grid because he ca n't stand being around you , and just wanted to get away from you . victoria : you do n't know anything about j.t . ! cane : oh , really ? yeah , i do . i know he wanted to make up with you . but he probably did n't come back groveling and begging the way you like it . 'cause you ca n't stand that , can you , 'cause you want a man to have to eat dirt to try and make you happy . victoria : j.t . was a liar . cane : okay . victoria : and you know what i 'm guessing ? i 'm guessing that that 's the kind of man that you admire . cane : yeah , okay . victoria : i wonder what lily is thinking right now ? i wonder if she finally realizes that she could do so much better than you . cane : okay , spin this . spin this however you need to do it , okay ? 'cause deep down inside , you think everyone 's as cold and as empty and as lonely as you are . rey : you 're free to go . [ sighs ] nick : so that 's it ? no apology ? rey : nate 's already been released . nick : so you admit it , then . there 's no kidnapping . rey : we have reassessed the information , and now we move on . nick : where 's my dad ? rey : he 'll be processed shortly . nick : well , then i 'll wait . rey : you made a lot of noise about being here , and now you want to stay ? i do n't think so . nick : is there some reason you want me gone , rey ? rey : are you a lawyer ? a cop ? under arrest ? no . so if you would n't mind ... christine : phew ... rey : you ready to get this over with ? victor : we done here ? i did n't kidnap my wife , but i want to spend time with her immediately , all right ? unless , of course , your outrageous behavior has put her into a tailspin and caused her to have a relapse . christine : nikki made it very clear there was no abduction . victor : and you knew that , did n't you , christine ? victor : so , are we done here ? christine : what you do n't know is there has been a decision made on another outstanding case . victor newman , you 're being charged with the murder of j.t . hellstrom . rey : you have the right to remain silent . anything you say will and can -- victor : save it , young man . rey : ... be used against you in a court of law . you have the right to an attorney . if you can not afford an attorney , one will be provided for you .Summarize.[/INST]at victoria 's house she leaves a message for reed . billy shows up and she tells him about reed 's confession . at the police station nate , nick and victor are in separate cells . they are then all brought before rey and christine . victor demands to be booked or released . he then demands to know where his wife is . rey tells him nikki is getting the care she needs and that what they did was classified as kidnapping . nate is brought into the interrogation room where rey attempts to intimidate him . nate defends himself in that he was caring for his patient and that he knows rey is just trying to get info from him on victor . nick and victor are taken back to their cells as victoria arrives . she demands to know where her mother is and rey tells her she is getting the medical care she needs . he asks what she is doing here and victoria replies that she thought reed may come to the police station asking about his grandmother . christine takes nate to schristian while nick refuses to help rey . meanwhile cane comes to at devon 's . cane tells devon he just needed to forget one night . devon assures him lily will get out of prison and their lives will then resume but cane tells him she 's a different person .</s>

[ scene_break ] jax : so how did michael and morgan work out their differences over the video game ? carly : they did n't , actually . when i finally got sick and tired of them glaring at each other or slamming things around , i made them sit down and play pirates dice with me . jax : board game with their mother ? that 's cruel . carly : and if they were rude or slammed the dice or cheated , i added another 15 minutes . jax : really ? carly : yep . i was the referee . only my opinion mattered . no arguments , no instant replays . jax : how did that work out for you ? carly : once they calmed down , it was a lot of fun . it was . we played for 3 hours . and morgan , he went and made popcorn and covered it with butter , just the way michael loves it . and michael , he kept giving hints of strategy to morgan so he could win . and he kept doing it in this jack sparrow voice , and it was , um ... it was hilarious .

eden : oh , i should know . marah : yeah , well , that 's right , you should . because you and tony are so much alike . you used to tell me that you understood him better than i did . eden : no , i understand both of you , and i know that you two should be together . marah : why do you care , eden ? why is this such a big deal to you ? why does it matter so much ? eden : you and tony have something special and i do n't want you two to lose that . marah : why do you care ? eden : because i 'm your friend . marah : well , then believe me when i 'm telling you that i am doing what i have to do , for me . eden : there is no way that you could be clear one day after a breakup . marah : no ? eden : no . do you realize that tony changed for you ? marah : he did the best that he could . eden : no . do you know how difficult it is to become a completely new person ? marah : well , i thought i did , but maybe you understand it in a way that i never could . eden : do n't let a dirt bag like salerno come between you and destroy everything that you guys have worked for . marah : you do n't understand , eden . those photos could not have come between tony and me if there was n't something wrong to begin with . eden : what , like a fatal flaw ? marah : yes . yeah . the violence . look , i 'm not blaming tony . i know that he tried to change . eden : he did change . marah : for now . but that will always be a part of him . eden : a part of his past . marah : tony and i have been through too much for me to be that naive . eden : you love him . do n't lose sight of that . marah : i will probably always love tony but right now i have to think about me , about my life and what is best for it . eden : you know , this is my fault . marah : are you listening to anything that i 'm saying ? eden : yes , i hear you . you 're scared . but if those stupid photos had n't fallen out of my bag . marah : then it would have been something else , eden . okay ? i was fooling myself about tony because i wanted to much to believe . eden : you can believe . this is just your hurt talking . marah : no , eden . this is me being practical . it 's just like ... it 's just like what happened with ben reade . if somebody had been able to see that and catch that sooner ... eden : you can not compare ben to tony . marah : i 'm not . eden : they are not even similar . marah : i am not going to bury my head in the sand . eden : but that is exactly what you 're doing here . look ... marah , do you want to hear the truth ? if bill was n't in the picture , i would make a move on tony myself . marah : why are you telling me this ? eden : because some day someone is going to come along and not care about you , and they 're not going to care about tony 's past , and then what are you going to do , marah ? huh ? reva : christopher . i 'm so sorry i 'm late . christopher : oh , do n't apologize . i was enjoying the sun . everything okay ? reva : yeah . it 's marah , my daughter . she broke up with her boyfriend last night . christopher : we can do this another time . reva : no , she does n't have much use for her mama right now . christopher : so , what 's on your mind , reva ? reva : my tv show , and your suggestion that i act as the reader in the special segments i want to do . christopher : you know as well as i do it was more than a suggestion . reva : i just do n't think i 'm ready for it yet . christopher : reva , will you stop doubting yourself ? and will you stop forgetting the work we did in italy ? reva : in a controlled environment , but to start reaching out to the `` other side `` in front of a live studio audience is a different story . christopher : it does n't matter . you have a gift . it 's with you anywhere . reva : i am more comfortable with it , that 's for sure . christopher : you know what ? i 'm going to prove it to you . reva : where are we going ? ( laughs ) cassie : i have to admit , it 'd be nice to live in a house again . danny : see ? i know what i 'm talking about . cassie : yeah , sometimes . danny : all that land . cassie : and the pond and the stable . i mean , tammy could ride horses anytime she wanted . edmund : think about it , mr . o'neill . life away from the beacon could afford you unspeakable freedoms . jeffrey : yeah , yeah . this is a hotel . edmund : exactly . it 's transient . it 's nothing compared to a real home . jeffrey : something i have n't known in a long time . edmund : exactly . no more children running around with chocolate under their fingers . no more toy cars grinding away on the floor overhead . jeffrey : well , now , that is a good point . edmund : and nobody to call you `` daddy . `` unless , of course , she 's obliged to late at night . you know what , mr . o'neill ? i read about an adults - only condominium complex opening up right downtown . cassie : i 've got to admit , it does sound pretty nice . danny : not just for the kids , but for you , too . cassie : and christmas . i could have christmas there and i could invite the whole family . danny : edmund could play santa . cassie : ( laughs ) no . jeffrey could play santa . he 's the one with the beard . danny : jeffrey ? o'neill ? cassie : yeah . i know he 's a pain in the you- know - what , but he did save my life . danny : well , i have to admit , i was with you until you mentioned o'neill . jeffrey : no . no , no , on second thought , i do n't think that would work for me . edmund : you 're kidding ? jeffrey : i know . i value my privacy too much . edmund : this ? this is what you call privacy ? jeffrey : well , a lot more than that . i mean , that would be like ... more like an episode of `` the young and the restless . `` we 're too old for that . edmund : mr. o'neill , we 're never too old for that . come on . you 're just as old as you feel . think about it . all those nubile women , available , or persuaded , chasing you around the laundry room all day long . it 'd be fantastic . jeffrey : you 've really thought a lot about this , have n't you ? edmund : it 's a thing of beauty , is n't it ? jeffrey : it does have its merits , but no . i think i want to stay right here , thank you . edmund : what about rj ? jeffrey : well , we 're just going to have to teach him that i 'm not his daddy . cassie : so what do you got against jeffrey o'neill ? danny : um , aside from the fact that he 's rude and obnoxious ? cassie : oh , come on . he 's got some good qualities . danny : really ? cassie : does n't he ? danny : like what ? cassie : i do n't know . ( laughs ) come on , i thought you guys were friends . i mean , you play racquetball together . danny : no , that 's called networking . besides , he 's got a vested interest in making sure fifth street is finished . it makes his job easier . cassie : you do n't like prosecutors . danny : i 'm just saying that i have a feeling about him , and i do n't know what it is , but it 's there . cassie : thank you . thanks for talking to me about edmund and the farm . you 've given me a lot to think about . danny : i 'd think about what i said about o'neill , too , if i were you . cassie : well , you 're not me . he saved me from falling off a roof . is n't that good enough for you ? eden : hi . tony : how 'd you know to find me here ? eden : i saw your car outside . i just talked to marah . tony : how is she ? eden : she 's putting on a good front . tony : maybe it 's not a front . maybe it 's exactly where she wants to be . eden : no , that 's not true and you know that . come on . if you would just talk to her . tony : maybe i already did talk . last night . it 's over . eden : no , you two belong together . tony : listen , there 's nothing you can do about this , so just drop it . it 's not your fault , if that 's what you 're worried about . eden : yes , it is my fault . i should have burned those pictures when i ... tony : i 'm the one who 's in the pictures ! okay ? not you . if there 's anyone to blame , it 's me . eden : i know , but she would n't have seen them if it was n't for me . tony : i 'm the problem . i ca n't control my temper . i hurt people . eden : would you stop it ? i 'm not going to let you destroy yourself . listen , i went to the museum and you had these strung all over the place . are you crazy ? tony : she already saw them . who cares ? eden : tony , stop it . i am not going to let you do this . tony : why ? huh ? why ? what do you care , huh ? what , do you feel guilty or something ? is that it ? did you want this to happen ? eden : no . tony : is that it ? did you want marah to see these pictures ? eden : no . tony : tell me , eden . is this ... is this what you want ? edmund : hey . i was ... cassie : hey . edmund : i was just going down to the beach . i told the boys i 'd help them build a sand castle . cassie : mrs. chitwood showed up , everything 's okay ? edmund : yes , everything 's fine . i just was n't expecting you back here so soon . cassie : neither was i . but i wanted to talk to you and i wanted to apologize . edmund : cassie ... cassie : no , you ... you offered to fix up the farm and i was a jerk , and i 'm sorry . edmund : cassie , you really do n't have to do this . it was presumptuous of me to begin with to start nosing around your living arrangements . cassie : you were n't nosing around anything . edmund : yes . yes , i was . the farm is about you and richard , it 's the last place you want ... cassie : would you let me be wrong ? because i am . i 'm wrong . all you did was respond to something i said and i have to tell you that it was ... it was a very sweet gesture . thank you . edmund : well , you 're welcome . and i 'm sorry i phrased things in the way i did and left myself open to certain misinterpretations . cassie : ( laughs ) okay . i can jump to conclusions sometimes . edmund : yes , well , we all have our quirks . cassie : yes , we do . and who knows ? maybe one day , we 'll be ready to take that next step . edmund : right . cassie : right . edmund : who knows ? cassie : so , is it too late ? does the offer still stand ? edmund : wait a minute . you 're seriously considering this . cassie : yeah , but i want two things . i think we should do it together and i want to split the cost . edmund : well , cassie , you do make more money than i do . cassie : yeah , i probably do make more money . but , you know , i do n't know , i think ... i think it 'll be fun . we can go there on the weekends and holidays , you know ? and if you ever need to get away , you can come over . it 'll be great , right ? edmund : are you talking about sort of a time - share arrangement ? cassie : yeah , sort of . ( laughter ) edmund : okay , one question : if i come on the weekends and you 're there , do i have to sleep in the hayloft ? cassie : no . i think we can work something out . reva : christopher , this ... christopher : ssh . reva : what are you doing ?

( sobbing ) christopher : reva . reva , wait . reva . you can be very proud . you helped to bring louise some peace . reva : why do i feel so empty inside , like i 've just done something horribly wrong . christopher : you 're overwhelmed . that 's normal at the beginning . reva : i do n't think i 'll ever understand this . christopher : i wish i had answers . all i can tell you is this : what you have is rare and very special . i just hope that you can reach out and use it to help other people . but that is not for me to decide . tony : tell me , eden , is this what you want ? huh ? huh ? eden : this is what i wanted , but not like this . i wanted you to want me , but you ... you 're in love with marah and i 'm with bill . tony : funny , i do n't see bill here . eden : i used to choose what 's bad for me , but i do n't anymore . tony : i did n't ask what was good for you . i asked you what you want . eden : i want you to be with the woman you love . and that 's marah . because if you guys ca n't make it together , then ... tony : then what ? then what ? if we ca n't make it together , then what ? tell me . what ? danny : you 're a hard man to find , tony . then again , maybe i was following the wrong scent . cassie : so , did you have fun playing in the water ? mrs. chitwood sure is cool , is n't she ? rj : so is uncle edmund . edmund : hey , thanks for the endorsement , springfield kid . hey , the springfield kid and i played horsey before he went down to the swimming pool . cassie : wow , horsey . that sounds like fun . edmund : that 's right . hey , what about i take you to a real farm someday and i teach you how to ride a real horse ? be good ? all right . you know , i think that ... bellhop : mrs. winslow ? cassie : yeah ? bellhop : this arrived this morning for mr . o'neill . cassie : wow , that sure looks beat up . bellhop : yeah , that 's why i thought you should see it . cassie : okay , thanks . thank you . oh , my goodness . jeffrey : did you lose something ? cassie : uh ... i hope you have insurance . jeffrey : oh , great . you 're opening my mail now . cassie : no , i 'm not . jeffrey : well , i would n't be surprised . you know , the guide book only gave this dump two stars after all , and after everything else that you 've done ... cassie : excuse me . jeffrey : what ? cassie : i did not open your mail . the package broke , okay ? jeffrey : rj , that does n't belong to you , and i 'm sure your mother has taught you ... well , then again , maybe she has n't . edmund : as usual , mr . o'neill , you 're way out of line . jeffrey : rj , give that to me , please . rj , i 'm asking nicely . i said , give it to me , you little ... cassie : hey ! what is your problem ? marah : hey , mom . reva : hi , honey . marah : how was your meeting with professor langham ? reva : it was eye - opening . and intense . marah : is that good ? reva : i hope so . i 'm not sure . marah : okay . reva : chris conducted this experiment and it scared me a little bit , and it also kind of excited me . gave me a glimpse of my possibilities . marah : so that is good . reva : i do n't know . how are you ? marah : i 'm hanging in there . reva : so , did your visitor make things better or worse ? marah : eden was just trying to be a friend . reva : lucky you . marah : you heard her . she wants me to go back to the museum . reva : to tony ? why would she want to do that ? marah : because she 's grateful for everything that we 've done for her . because we stuck by her when she was in a time of need . she 's just trying to return the favor . reva : what are you not telling me ? marah : eden said that she might go after tony if bill were n't in the picture . reva : bingo . marah : but she also said that she would never do that to me . reva : i still do n't trust her . marah : mom , do n't go reading into this , okay ? reva : sweetheart , every time i see that girl , i get a very clear picture of her dealing a deck of cards , trying to put one over on someone . marah : eden is not putting one over on me . reva : you talk a good game . but if you 're going to let eden deal from the bottom of the deck , you better be sure that you do n't care whether or not you win or lose . danny : what the hell was that ? tony : just back off , danny . danny : back off ? why ? so you can screw up your life ? tony : too late . danny : what do you mean , `` too late ? `` what do you mean ? tony : take a look for yourself , compliments of don salerno . danny : salerno ? tony .

reva : i can postpone it . marah : go . reva : okay . but i 'm going to come back just as soon as we 're finished . marah : i 'm sorry about that . eden : it 's okay . she was just being protective . marah : well , i do n't need protecting right now . eden : well , you 're lucky you even have a mother . now if we could just get her to get you to move back into the museum . marah : you know , this is where i belong . i need somewhere where i can concentrate and focus on my work . eden : look , i am the last person to stop you from following your dreams , but that 's not what this is about . marah : that 's not for you to say . eden : you know , it is those damn photos . i should have just ripped them up when i had a chance . marah : that would n't have mattered . eden : they are fake , marah . marah : no , they 're not , eden . tony admitted to me that he was with that girl . eden : yeah . but that was after you guys broke up . marah : yeah . and when he realized that she was setting him up , he went crazy . eden : he told you ? marah : no . no , tony does n't remember hurting the girl . tony , he got drunk and the whole thing is just a big blur to him . eden : yeah , but that was before . he thought he had lost you . marah : oh . oh , and people just do crazy things ? eden : oh , i should know . marah : yeah , well , that 's right , you should . because you and tony are so much alike . you used to tell me that you understood him better than i did . eden : no , i understand both of you , and i know that you two should be together . marah : why do you care , eden ? why is this such a big deal to you ? why does it matter so much ? eden : you and tony have something special and i do n't want you two to lose that . marah : why do you care ? eden : because i 'm your friend . marah : well , then believe me when i 'm telling you that i am doing what i have to do , for me . eden : there is no way that you could be clear one day after a breakup . marah : no ? eden : no . do you realize that tony changed for you ? marah : he did the best that he could . eden : no . do you know how difficult it is to become a completely new person ? marah : well , i thought i did , but maybe you understand it in a way that i never could . eden : do n't let a dirt bag like salerno come between you and destroy everything that you guys have worked for . marah : you do n't understand , eden . those photos could not have come between tony and me if there was n't something wrong to begin with . eden : what , like a fatal flaw ? marah : yes . yeah . the violence . look , i 'm not blaming tony . i know that he tried to change . eden : he did change . marah : for now . but that will always be a part of him . eden : a part of his past . marah : tony and i have been through too much for me to be that naive . eden : you love him . do n't lose sight of that . marah : i will probably always love tony but right now i have to think about me , about my life and what is best for it . eden : you know , this is my fault . marah : are you listening to anything that i 'm saying ? eden : yes , i hear you . you 're scared . but if those stupid photos had n't fallen out of my bag . marah : then it would have been something else , eden . okay ? i was fooling myself about tony because i wanted to much to believe . eden : you can believe . this is just your hurt talking . marah : no , eden . this is me being practical . it 's just like ... it 's just like what happened with ben reade . if somebody had been able to see that and catch that sooner ... eden : you can not compare ben to tony . marah : i 'm not . eden : they are not even similar . marah : i am not going to bury my head in the sand . eden : but that is exactly what you 're doing here . look ... marah , do you want to hear the truth ? if bill was n't in the picture , i would make a move on tony myself . marah : why are you telling me this ? eden : because some day someone is going to come along and not care about you , and they 're not going to care about tony 's past , and then what are you going to do , marah ? huh ? reva : christopher . i 'm so sorry i 'm late . christopher : oh , do n't apologize . i was enjoying the sun . everything okay ? reva : yeah . it 's marah , my daughter . she broke up with her boyfriend last night . christopher : we can do this another time . reva : no , she does n't have much use for her mama right now . christopher : so , what 's on your mind , reva ? reva : my tv show , and your suggestion that i act as the reader in the special segments i want to do . christopher : you know as well as i do it was more than a suggestion . reva : i just do n't think i 'm ready for it yet . christopher : reva , will you stop doubting yourself ? and will you stop forgetting the work we did in italy ? reva : in a controlled environment , but to start reaching out to the `` other side `` in front of a live studio audience is a different story . christopher : it does n't matter . you have a gift . it 's with you anywhere . reva : i am more comfortable with it , that 's for sure . christopher : you know what ? i 'm going to prove it to you . reva : where are we going ? ( laughs ) cassie : i have to admit , it 'd be nice to live in a house again . danny : see ? i know what i 'm talking about . cassie : yeah , sometimes . danny : all that land . cassie : and the pond and the stable . i mean , tammy could ride horses anytime she wanted . edmund : think about it , mr . o'neill . life away from the beacon could afford you unspeakable freedoms . jeffrey : yeah , yeah . this is a hotel . edmund : exactly . it 's transient . it 's nothing compared to a real home . jeffrey : something i have n't known in a long time . edmund : exactly . no more children running around with chocolate under their fingers . no more toy cars grinding away on the floor overhead . jeffrey : well , now , that is a good point . edmund : and nobody to call you `` daddy . `` unless , of course , she 's obliged to late at night . you know what , mr . o'neill ? i read about an adults - only condominium complex opening up right downtown . cassie : i 've got to admit , it does sound pretty nice . danny : not just for the kids , but for you , too . cassie : and christmas . i could have christmas there and i could invite the whole family . danny : edmund could play santa . cassie : ( laughs ) no . jeffrey could play santa . he 's the one with the beard . danny : jeffrey ? o'neill ? cassie : yeah . i know he 's a pain in the you- know - what , but he did save my life . danny : well , i have to admit , i was with you until you mentioned o'neill . jeffrey : no . no , no , on second thought , i do n't think that would work for me . edmund : you 're kidding ? jeffrey : i know . i value my privacy too much . edmund : this ? this is what you call privacy ? jeffrey : well , a lot more than that . i mean , that would be like ... more like an episode of `` the young and the restless . `` we 're too old for that . edmund : mr. o'neill , we 're never too old for that . come on . you 're just as old as you feel . think about it . all those nubile women , available , or persuaded , chasing you around the laundry room all day long . it 'd be fantastic . jeffrey : you 've really thought a lot about this , have n't you ? edmund : it 's a thing of beauty , is n't it ? jeffrey : it does have its merits , but no . i think i want to stay right here , thank you . edmund : what about rj ? jeffrey : well , we 're just going to have to teach him that i 'm not his daddy . cassie : so what do you got against jeffrey o'neill ? danny : um , aside from the fact that he 's rude and obnoxious ? cassie : oh , come on . he 's got some good qualities . danny : really ? cassie : does n't he ? danny : like what ? cassie : i do n't know . ( laughs ) come on , i thought you guys were friends . i mean , you play racquetball together . danny : no , that 's called networking . besides , he 's got a vested interest in making sure fifth street is finished . it makes his job easier . cassie : you do n't like prosecutors . danny : i 'm just saying that i have a feeling about him , and i do n't know what it is , but it 's there . cassie : thank you . thanks for talking to me about edmund and the farm . you 've given me a lot to think about . danny : i 'd think about what i said about o'neill , too , if i were you . cassie : well , you 're not me . he saved me from falling off a roof . is n't that good enough for you ? eden : hi . tony : how 'd you know to find me here ? eden : i saw your car outside . i just talked to marah . tony : how is she ? eden : she 's putting on a good front . tony : maybe it 's not a front . maybe it 's exactly where she wants to be . eden : no , that 's not true and you know that . come on . if you would just talk to her . tony : maybe i already did talk . last night . it 's over . eden : no , you two belong together . tony : listen , there 's nothing you can do about this , so just drop it . it 's not your fault , if that 's what you 're worried about . eden : yes , it is my fault . i should have burned those pictures when i ... tony : i 'm the one who 's in the pictures ! okay ? not you . if there 's anyone to blame , it 's me . eden : i know , but she would n't have seen them if it was n't for me . tony : i 'm the problem . i ca n't control my temper . i hurt people . eden : would you stop it ? i 'm not going to let you destroy yourself . listen , i went to the museum and you had these strung all over the place . are you crazy ? tony : she already saw them . who cares ? eden : tony , stop it . i am not going to let you do this . tony : why ? huh ? why ? what do you care , huh ? what , do you feel guilty or something ? is that it ? did you want this to happen ? eden : no . tony : is that it ? did you want marah to see these pictures ? eden : no . tony : tell me , eden . is this ... is this what you want ? edmund : hey . i was ... cassie : hey . edmund : i was just going down to the beach . i told the boys i 'd help them build a sand castle . cassie : mrs. chitwood showed up , everything 's okay ? edmund : yes , everything 's fine . i just was n't expecting you back here so soon . cassie : neither was i . but i wanted to talk to you and i wanted to apologize . edmund : cassie ... cassie : no , you ... you offered to fix up the farm and i was a jerk , and i 'm sorry . edmund : cassie , you really do n't have to do this . it was presumptuous of me to begin with to start nosing around your living arrangements . cassie : you were n't nosing around anything . edmund : yes . yes , i was . the farm is about you and richard , it 's the last place you want ... cassie : would you let me be wrong ? because i am . i 'm wrong . all you did was respond to something i said and i have to tell you that it was ... it was a very sweet gesture . thank you . edmund : well , you 're welcome . and i 'm sorry i phrased things in the way i did and left myself open to certain misinterpretations . cassie : ( laughs ) okay . i can jump to conclusions sometimes . edmund : yes , well , we all have our quirks . cassie : yes , we do . and who knows ? maybe one day , we 'll be ready to take that next step . edmund : right . cassie : right . edmund : who knows ? cassie : so , is it too late ? does the offer still stand ? edmund : wait a minute . you 're seriously considering this . cassie : yeah , but i want two things . i think we should do it together and i want to split the cost . edmund : well , cassie , you do make more money than i do . cassie : yeah , i probably do make more money . but , you know , i do n't know , i think ... i think it 'll be fun . we can go there on the weekends and holidays , you know ? and if you ever need to get away , you can come over . it 'll be great , right ? edmund : are you talking about sort of a time - share arrangement ? cassie : yeah , sort of .

[ scene_break ] simone : why should we follow you anywhere ? we tried that . you promised us -- [ italian accent ] answers to all of our questions -- [ normal voice ] and what have we learned ? nothing . man : you did n't learn `` nothing . `` what did you see in that club ? jessica : hmm . loads of freaks ? man : and these so - called freaks all had one thing in common -- the symbol . you learned there are others in this world that are aware of the symbol . paloma : si , si , si , si , si . but what about the paintings ? why is this symbol in all the stolen paintings ? man : we have much room to teach you all about the symbol . but if you wish to learn , you will learn at our pace , a pace that can not be rushed or else all will be lost . [ scene_break ] man : whitney ? can you find the strength within yourself to do what must be done ? whitney : if god demands that either chad or myself must die , then i would gladly give my life so that chad may live . man : then come . let us go to the lord 's house and pray , pray for forgiveness , pray that you can accept the end of your life , for tonight , sister whitney , you will die . [ scene_break ] noah : hey . fancy : my head is killing me . noah : let me take a look . you got a big old nasty bump there . fancy : oh , great . luis : you know , not that it 's any of my business , but i thought you two broke up , and what are you doing together here in rome ? fancy : we have broken up . we 're not here together -- far from it . noah : oh , look , fancy , do n't be like that . fancy : get away from me , noah ! i never want to see you again after what you 've done ! noah : fancy , you -- fancy : you 're -- you 're history . you do n't exist ! you 're not there . where was i ? luis , thank you for carrying me out of the catacombs . if it were n't for you , i 'd be dead . luis : no problem . fancy : it was a big deal to me . oh , you 're bleeding . luis : no , i 'm -- i 'm fine . i 'm ok . fancy : no , do n't be silly . luis : no -- fancy : come here , sit . here . noah : hey , i 'm bleeding , too . fancy : good ! i hope it hurts like hell . luis , do n't move . i 'll be right back . i 'm going to wet this down . luis : ok . luis : hey , what 'd you do to her ? noah : it 's a long story -- a very long story . luis : you ok ? noah : no , man , i 've messed up -- big , big mess - up . i mean , this is the worst fix i 've ever been in . luis : look , come on , man . it ca n't be worse than that time you were cornered by old man grussman 's prize bull , huh ? noah : are you ever going to let me forget that ? luis : uh -- no ! no . [ noah and luis chuckle ] chad : ok , what happened ? luis : oh . noah : uh -- i was in junior high and i had this huge crush on jean flanagan . luis : yeah , `` huge `` is right . she was , like , a foot taller than he was at the time . noah : hey , do n't rub it in , all right ? [ laughter ] noah : anyways , i went to luis for some advice , you know ? i needed to know how to impress her , and luis -- you know , because he was like a big brother to me at the time -- he said , `` take her some flowers . `` but , you know , i did n't have a paper route at the time . i did n't have a dime to my name , but i did know that there were a ton of flowers up in old man grussman 's field . luis : yeah , so romeo here decides he 's going to climb the fence . he goes out into the field and he starts picking flowers . unbeknownst to him , there was the biggest , nastiest bull on the other side of the field . noah : but this is not ferdinand the bull , all right ? luis : well , maybe it was ferdinand . well , he did n't like you picking his flowers . [ noah chuckles ] noah : so about 20 tons of bull comes running at me from the other side of the field and i do n't even see him until he 's about 10 feet away , right , and i take off like carl lewis right into the corner of the fence . i 'm stuck . the fence is made of barbed - wire and i is n't going anywhere , all right ? now , check this out -- the bull , it stops and it starts pawing at the ground . it 's , like , out of a cartoon or something . [ chad laughs ] chad : so -- so how 'd you get out of it ? i mean -- noah : this one here . he -- luis : saw the whole thing . luckily , i was driving by and -- he 's right . it was totally out of a cartoon . there was a tree , it was on the other side of the fence . i climbed up the tree , i shimmied out the branch , and i reached down and i grabbed him right before that damn bull charged . noah : yeah , that was close . luis : yeah , it was . noah : no wildflowers , no -- not even you can save me from the mess i 'm in with fancy . [ scene_break ] theresa : so what do you think that paloma has gotten herself involved in ? i mean , searching for stolen paintings ? what do you think this is about ? jerry : i ca n't say , ma'am . if you do n't wish to send your brother after her , i can dispatch crane security in rome to detain paloma and protect her . theresa : yeah , yeah . you know what ? i think actually that would be best . now , you 've got to tell them to be very , very careful because you have no idea what a young girl can get herself involved in . jerry : three young girls -- your sister , simone russell , and jessica bennett . theresa : wait -- uh -- jessica bennett is there ? well , why ? jerry : apparently , she was a last - minute addition to the trip . shall i have them picked up ? theresa : yes . no ! no . no . no , this is what i want you to do -- ok . um -- yeah , i want you to print out those screens and then i want you to alert crane security in rome and you tell them that i 'm going to be arriving shortly to personally oversee this situation . jerry : but why , mrs. crane ? we can take care of it . there 's no reason for you to go to rome . you could be putting yourself in danger . theresa : ok , you know what ? i 'm not going to be in any danger . jerry : ma'am , you know there are dozens , maybe hundreds of crane employees who are only loyal to your husband . they view you with -- how shall i put this ? resentment ? what if someone 's trying to lure you to rome to hurt you ? this whole thing could be a trap . you should n't be alone -- you need protection . theresa : jerry , i 'm not going to be alone . i 'm going to have a very strong and capable man with me in rome . [ scene_break ] gwen : hmm . ethan : hmm . gwen : this is heaven -- just the two of us , no distractions . ethan : no mr. collier , no demands that you work late . gwen : no theresa . oh . oh . and just as i 'm sure that mr. collier will have me work late , i know that somehow theresa 's going to appear tomorrow like an evil spirit trying to ruin things . [ scene_break ] chad : we have to save whitney . all right ? noah : yeah -- yeah . now , are you sure that that was whitney that you saw down there ? it -- it really did n't look like her . chad : yeah , i know , i know . i do n't know why she wore a disguise , but that was whitney . noah : are you sure that who you saw down there was whitney ? chad : look , when you love a woman as much as i love whitney , you recognize her no matter where you are . noah : all right . so what are we going to do ? chad : i do n't know , but i 'm going to find whitney even if i die trying . whitney : oh , heavenly father , i have sinned . i love my own brother and i ca n't stop , no matter what i do . just the thought of him tempts me from your righteous path and he loves me , too . the only way to stop the sin is if one of us dies , and that person has to be me . i have to die for our sins . man : i will honor your request , whitney . death will come as soon as you finish your prayer . [ scene_break ] luis : ouch . fancy : keep still , you big baby . it 's just water . luis : so what happened between you and noah anyway ? fancy : i do n't want to go into it . luis : all right . i just hope you 're not throwing away a good thing over some little misunderstanding . noah 's one of the greatest guys that i know . fancy : hmm . then you must have one rotten set of friends . luis : ouch . fancy : i did n't touch you . luis : no , i was talking about the -- never mind . fancy : so , have you spoken to sheridan since you got here ? luis : no , actually , i have n't . but i know as soon as i find marty and bring him back to sheridan , she 's going to divorce chris and come back to me -- ah . fancy : good luck with that . luis : thanks . fancy : you know , maybe if she knew we had been kissing , she 'd get jealous . that could help . [ luis chuckles ] luis : oh , not sheridan . no . she would understand . fancy : any more cuts ? luis : yeah , a -- a few . [ grunts ] fancy : i want -- luis : ah ! fancy : i want aunt sheridan to be happy . she 's -- she 's been through so much , she deserves that . and i know she 's always loved you . luis : yeah . well , then pray that i find marty because he 's the key to me winning her back . fancy : are you sure that beth 's here in rome with marty ? luis : yeah . the question is where . [ scene_break ] beth : [ whispering ] let 's go to the café . step up . there we go . ok . sit right there . want to sit up here ? ok . ooh , he 's a big boy . ok , now , after we get our drinks , i 'll take you back to the fountain . would you like that ? yeah ? i know what else you might like . strawberry gelato . [ beth chuckles ] man : buona sera , signora . beth : oh , buona sera . my son just does n't want to go to sleep tonight , so i 'm hoping that a lemonade and a small strawberry gelato might do the trick . man : and for you ? beth : uh , just a caffe americano , please . man : ok . and your name , please ? beth : oh , i 'm beth and this is my son marty . man : va bene . [ scene_break ] ethan : gwen , please , do n't . gwen : honey -- ethan : do n't -- gwen : if you 're going to tell me not to worry about theresa , i 'm going to scream . you know , every time you tell me that she 's come to her senses , she hits us with another bomb . ethan : well , we 're married . and there 's nothing she can do to change it . gwen : well , honey , that never stops her from trying . and listen , i try really hard not to let it get to me , but it 's -- it 's pretty much impossible . [ ethan sighs ] gwen : because every single day , she does something new to try to get close to you . it 's driving me crazy . this whole thing is juvenile and is so tiresome . ethan : i think one day she 'll just give up . gwen : honey , she 's never , ever going to give up . i 'm going to have to live the rest of my life wondering what sick little plan she 's going to come up with next . theresa : ethan -- ethan : oh , god ! gwen : oh , my god ! theresa : uh -- listen -- um -- i need your help . it 's an emergency . paloma , simone , and jessica -- they 're -- they 're in terrible danger and i need you to come with me right now ! we got to go to rome , and we got to save them ! [ scene_break ] paloma : what do you mean , `` all will be lost `` ? do you think we 're stupid ? you ca n't make these weird comments and expect us -- man : will you come with us or not ? we will not teach you your next lesson on the street . simone : ok . we -- we will come with you if it is the only way to learn about the symbol , its link to the missing paintings , and -- and to my missing sister . man : good . simone : wait a minute -- what are those for ? man : we can not reveal where we are taking you . jessica : [ moans ] simone : ok , so we 're supposed to just let you blindfold us ? how stupid do you think we are ? man : wear the blindfolds , or you 'll never learn what you want to know . paloma : simone , i think we have to do what they say . jessica : oh , i ca n't believe what i let you two get me into . simone : this better not be the last sight i see of the world , or i 'm going to be really , really mad . [ scene_break ] fancy : how did you keep your body in such great shape when you were held prisoner ? luis : uh -- did a lot of isometrics . it 's about the only exercise you can do while you 're tied up . fancy : that 's not what rebecca says . luis : i do n't even want to know what that means . chad : look , luis , i 'm not going to stick around here all night when whitney 's out there somewhere . i 'm going to go look for her . luis : you 're going to go back to the catacombs ? all right , i 'm going with you then . fancy : uh - uh - uh - uh . you should n't go anywhere for a while . you need rest . you 're still recuperating from months of imprisonment . luis : i 'll be fine . chad : no , that 's ok , luis . i 'm not going back to the catacombs just yet . maybe whitney made it out of there and made it up here . i can find her on my own . luis : well , i do n't think that 's such a good idea . chad : come on , luis , it 's ok . if i need you guys , i 'll leave word at the hotel , or i 'll call . you 're here to find beth and marty , remember ? luis : yeah . all right . all right , be careful then . fancy : good luck , chad . chad : thank you . noah : so , luis , one little kiss and you got your clothes coming off , huh ? fancy : that 's funny , coming from you . luis : all right , hey , how about we not fight , ok ? fancy : i do n't care enough to fight . in fact , i do n't care at all . luis : all right , can i just clear the air here a little ? i really did think that i was kissing sheridan when i kissed you earlier , ok ? noah : eh , do n't worry about it , luis . at least you did n't kiss me , huh ? fancy : hmm . that 's the first time one of my kisses confused someone . noah : i would n't say that . fancy : no one 's talking to you . noah : look , fancy , it 's getting late , all right ? let me walk you back to the hotel . we can talk -- fancy : no , no ! get away from me ! i will go back to the hotel when i am good and ready -- and with someone i like and can trust . right now , i 'm going to go to that café over there and get luis some coffee . he 's been a real hero tonight . luis : you got it bad , huh ? noah : yeah . god , i love her . i hate her , but i love her . luis : well , if there 's anything that i can do to help you two get back together , you just let me know , ok ? noah : yeah , thanks . but , you know , i really need to take care of this one on my own . but hey , let me help you find beth and marty , you know ? after all those things you 've done for me over the years , i really owe it to you . luis : well , i might just take you up on that . i 'm not going to be able to sleep until i find beth , and i know she 's in this damn city somewhere .

whitney gives herself up to die in order to save chad , while he worries about where she is and whether she made it out of the tunnel before the second cave- in . the nun tells him that she 's already dead , but he refuses to believe it . his protestations to the contrary , she has been stabbed by `` god `` , apparently . fancy dresses luis ' wounds , then heads to a cafe for a coffee , while luis and noah stay where they are and discuss their lost loves . in the cafe , fancy hears beth talking and recognizes the voice , but she was referring to the new england accent . she and beth strike up a friendly conversation , while the two men wait for her .

[ scene_break ] jerry : nothing seems to have changed . there 's still a high alert with regards to your sister paloma . theresa : i just do n't understand what kind of danger she could get herself into in an art school . jerry : well , so far , she has n't shown up at any art school . theresa : ok . uh -- and -- and luis ? jerry : well , one moment . oh , good news , ma'am . theresa : what ? jerry : your brother 's been located . theresa : oh , thank you , god . jerry : would you like him contacted about your sister ? theresa : yes . um -- no . no . no , no . as you know , he 's -- he 's trying to -- he 's trying to find his son marty . jerry : yes , ma'am , and also beth wallace , mr. crane 's other daughter , the illegitimate one . theresa : and did you know where beth is ? i mean , because alistair does . jerry : no , ma'am . so many parts of the organization operate under a veil of secrecy . theresa : yeah . you do n't have to tell me that . jerry : apparently , luis has been seen in the company of chad harris , julian crane 's son . theresa : so luis must be trying to help chad find whitney . so , no , i ca n't send luis to go find paloma . can you go back to the screen about paloma , please ? yeah . are you sure that she has not attended an art school with her friend simone russell ? jerry : no , ma'am , but there is something here about art . theresa : well , at least she was n't lying to me about that . jerry : oh . mrs. crane , this does n't sound good at all . apparently your sister and ms. russell are trying to track down some stolen paintings ? theresa : stolen paintings ? jerry : i 'm sorry to be the one to tell you this , but it seems your sister has been lying to you . her trip to rome was in pursuit of these stolen paintings , and the crane european security office is very concerned about her . they think she 's gotten in way over her head . that 's why they signaled `` grave danger `` to us . [ scene_break ] simone : why should we follow you anywhere ? we tried that . you promised us -- [ italian accent ] answers to all of our questions -- [ normal voice ] and what have we learned ? nothing . man : you did n't learn `` nothing . `` what did you see in that club ? jessica : hmm . loads of freaks ? man : and these so - called freaks all had one thing in common -- the symbol . you learned there are others in this world that are aware of the symbol . paloma : si , si , si , si , si . but what about the paintings ? why is this symbol in all the stolen paintings ? man : we have much room to teach you all about the symbol . but if you wish to learn , you will learn at our pace , a pace that can not be rushed or else all will be lost . [ scene_break ] man : whitney ? can you find the strength within yourself to do what must be done ? whitney : if god demands that either chad or myself must die , then i would gladly give my life so that chad may live . man : then come . let us go to the lord 's house and pray , pray for forgiveness , pray that you can accept the end of your life , for tonight , sister whitney , you will die .

[ noah and luis chuckle ] chad : ok , what happened ? luis : oh . noah : uh -- i was in junior high and i had this huge crush on jean flanagan . luis : yeah , `` huge `` is right . she was , like , a foot taller than he was at the time . noah : hey , do n't rub it in , all right ? [ laughter ] noah : anyways , i went to luis for some advice , you know ? i needed to know how to impress her , and luis -- you know , because he was like a big brother to me at the time -- he said , `` take her some flowers . `` but , you know , i did n't have a paper route at the time . i did n't have a dime to my name , but i did know that there were a ton of flowers up in old man grussman 's field . luis : yeah , so romeo here decides he 's going to climb the fence . he goes out into the field and he starts picking flowers . unbeknownst to him , there was the biggest , nastiest bull on the other side of the field . noah : but this is not ferdinand the bull , all right ? luis : well , maybe it was ferdinand . well , he did n't like you picking his flowers . [ noah chuckles ] noah : so about 20 tons of bull comes running at me from the other side of the field and i do n't even see him until he 's about 10 feet away , right , and i take off like carl lewis right into the corner of the fence . i 'm stuck . the fence is made of barbed - wire and i is n't going anywhere , all right ? now , check this out -- the bull , it stops and it starts pawing at the ground . it 's , like , out of a cartoon or something . [ chad laughs ] chad : so -- so how 'd you get out of it ? i mean -- noah : this one here . he -- luis : saw the whole thing . luckily , i was driving by and -- he 's right . it was totally out of a cartoon . there was a tree , it was on the other side of the fence . i climbed up the tree , i shimmied out the branch , and i reached down and i grabbed him right before that damn bull charged . noah : yeah , that was close . luis : yeah , it was . noah : no wildflowers , no -- not even you can save me from the mess i 'm in with fancy . [ scene_break ] theresa : so what do you think that paloma has gotten herself involved in ? i mean , searching for stolen paintings ? what do you think this is about ? jerry : i ca n't say , ma'am . if you do n't wish to send your brother after her , i can dispatch crane security in rome to detain paloma and protect her . theresa : yeah , yeah . you know what ? i think actually that would be best . now , you 've got to tell them to be very , very careful because you have no idea what a young girl can get herself involved in . jerry : three young girls -- your sister , simone russell , and jessica bennett . theresa : wait -- uh -- jessica bennett is there ? well , why ? jerry : apparently , she was a last - minute addition to the trip . shall i have them picked up ? theresa : yes . no ! no . no . no , this is what i want you to do -- ok . um -- yeah , i want you to print out those screens and then i want you to alert crane security in rome and you tell them that i 'm going to be arriving shortly to personally oversee this situation . jerry : but why , mrs. crane ? we can take care of it . there 's no reason for you to go to rome . you could be putting yourself in danger . theresa : ok , you know what ? i 'm not going to be in any danger . jerry : ma'am , you know there are dozens , maybe hundreds of crane employees who are only loyal to your husband . they view you with -- how shall i put this ? resentment ? what if someone 's trying to lure you to rome to hurt you ? this whole thing could be a trap . you should n't be alone -- you need protection . theresa : jerry , i 'm not going to be alone . i 'm going to have a very strong and capable man with me in rome . [ scene_break ] gwen : hmm . ethan : hmm . gwen : this is heaven -- just the two of us , no distractions . ethan : no mr. collier , no demands that you work late . gwen : no theresa . oh . oh . and just as i 'm sure that mr. collier will have me work late , i know that somehow theresa 's going to appear tomorrow like an evil spirit trying to ruin things . [ scene_break ] chad : we have to save whitney . all right ? noah : yeah -- yeah . now , are you sure that that was whitney that you saw down there ? it -- it really did n't look like her . chad : yeah , i know , i know . i do n't know why she wore a disguise , but that was whitney . noah : are you sure that who you saw down there was whitney ? chad : look , when you love a woman as much as i love whitney , you recognize her no matter where you are . noah : all right . so what are we going to do ? chad : i do n't know , but i 'm going to find whitney even if i die trying . whitney : oh , heavenly father , i have sinned . i love my own brother and i ca n't stop , no matter what i do . just the thought of him tempts me from your righteous path and he loves me , too . the only way to stop the sin is if one of us dies , and that person has to be me . i have to die for our sins . man : i will honor your request , whitney . death will come as soon as you finish your prayer . [ scene_break ] luis : ouch . fancy : keep still , you big baby . it 's just water . luis : so what happened between you and noah anyway ? fancy : i do n't want to go into it . luis : all right . i just hope you 're not throwing away a good thing over some little misunderstanding . noah 's one of the greatest guys that i know . fancy : hmm . then you must have one rotten set of friends . luis : ouch . fancy : i did n't touch you . luis : no , i was talking about the -- never mind . fancy : so , have you spoken to sheridan since you got here ? luis : no , actually , i have n't . but i know as soon as i find marty and bring him back to sheridan , she 's going to divorce chris and come back to me -- ah . fancy : good luck with that . luis : thanks . fancy : you know , maybe if she knew we had been kissing , she 'd get jealous . that could help . [ luis chuckles ] luis : oh , not sheridan . no . she would understand . fancy : any more cuts ? luis : yeah , a -- a few . [ grunts ] fancy : i want -- luis : ah ! fancy : i want aunt sheridan to be happy . she 's -- she 's been through so much , she deserves that . and i know she 's always loved you . luis : yeah . well , then pray that i find marty because he 's the key to me winning her back . fancy : are you sure that beth 's here in rome with marty ? luis : yeah . the question is where . [ scene_break ] beth : [ whispering ] let 's go to the café . step up . there we go . ok . sit right there . want to sit up here ? ok . ooh , he 's a big boy . ok , now , after we get our drinks , i 'll take you back to the fountain . would you like that ? yeah ? i know what else you might like . strawberry gelato . [ beth chuckles ] man : buona sera , signora . beth : oh , buona sera . my son just does n't want to go to sleep tonight , so i 'm hoping that a lemonade and a small strawberry gelato might do the trick . man : and for you ? beth : uh , just a caffe americano , please . man : ok . and your name , please ? beth : oh , i 'm beth and this is my son marty . man : va bene . [ scene_break ] ethan : gwen , please , do n't . gwen : honey -- ethan : do n't -- gwen : if you 're going to tell me not to worry about theresa , i 'm going to scream . you know , every time you tell me that she 's come to her senses , she hits us with another bomb . ethan : well , we 're married . and there 's nothing she can do to change it . gwen : well , honey , that never stops her from trying . and listen , i try really hard not to let it get to me , but it 's -- it 's pretty much impossible . [ ethan sighs ] gwen : because every single day , she does something new to try to get close to you . it 's driving me crazy . this whole thing is juvenile and is so tiresome . ethan : i think one day she 'll just give up . gwen : honey , she 's never , ever going to give up . i 'm going to have to live the rest of my life wondering what sick little plan she 's going to come up with next . theresa : ethan -- ethan : oh , god ! gwen : oh , my god ! theresa : uh -- listen -- um -- i need your help . it 's an emergency . paloma , simone , and jessica -- they 're -- they 're in terrible danger and i need you to come with me right now ! we got to go to rome , and we got to save them ! [ scene_break ] paloma : what do you mean , `` all will be lost `` ? do you think we 're stupid ? you ca n't make these weird comments and expect us -- man : will you come with us or not ? we will not teach you your next lesson on the street . simone : ok . we -- we will come with you if it is the only way to learn about the symbol , its link to the missing paintings , and -- and to my missing sister . man : good . simone : wait a minute -- what are those for ? man : we can not reveal where we are taking you . jessica : [ moans ] simone : ok , so we 're supposed to just let you blindfold us ? how stupid do you think we are ? man : wear the blindfolds , or you 'll never learn what you want to know . paloma : simone , i think we have to do what they say . jessica : oh , i ca n't believe what i let you two get me into . simone : this better not be the last sight i see of the world , or i 'm going to be really , really mad . [ scene_break ] fancy : how did you keep your body in such great shape when you were held prisoner ? luis : uh -- did a lot of isometrics . it 's about the only exercise you can do while you 're tied up . fancy : that 's not what rebecca says . luis : i do n't even want to know what that means . chad : look , luis , i 'm not going to stick around here all night when whitney 's out there somewhere . i 'm going to go look for her . luis : you 're going to go back to the catacombs ? all right , i 'm going with you then . fancy : uh - uh - uh - uh . you should n't go anywhere for a while . you need rest . you 're still recuperating from months of imprisonment . luis : i 'll be fine . chad : no , that 's ok , luis . i 'm not going back to the catacombs just yet . maybe whitney made it out of there and made it up here . i can find her on my own . luis : well , i do n't think that 's such a good idea . chad : come on , luis , it 's ok . if i need you guys , i 'll leave word at the hotel , or i 'll call . you 're here to find beth and marty , remember ? luis : yeah . all right . all right , be careful then . fancy : good luck , chad . chad : thank you . noah : so , luis , one little kiss and you got your clothes coming off , huh ? fancy : that 's funny , coming from you . luis : all right , hey , how about we not fight , ok ? fancy : i do n't care enough to fight . in fact , i do n't care at all . luis : all right , can i just clear the air here a little ? i really did think that i was kissing sheridan when i kissed you earlier , ok ? noah : eh , do n't worry about it , luis . at least you did n't kiss me , huh ? fancy : hmm . that 's the first time one of my kisses confused someone . noah : i would n't say that . fancy : no one 's talking to you . noah : look , fancy , it 's getting late , all right ? let me walk you back to the hotel . we can talk -- fancy : no , no ! get away from me ! i will go back to the hotel when i am good and ready -- and with someone i like and can trust . right now , i 'm going to go to that café over there and get luis some coffee . he 's been a real hero tonight . luis : you got it bad , huh ? noah : yeah . god , i love her . i hate her , but i love her . luis : well , if there 's anything that i can do to help you two get back together , you just let me know , ok ? noah : yeah , thanks . but , you know , i really need to take care of this one on my own . but hey , let me help you find beth and marty , you know ? after all those things you 've done for me over the years , i really owe it to you . luis : well , i might just take you up on that . i 'm not going to be able to sleep until i find beth , and i know she 's in this damn city somewhere .

's night manager , have her give me tonight 's take and bring it down here to the gym . adriana : oh . did he say why ? daryl : no , but i 'm sure it was n't to give you a heart attack . i 'm really sorry . adriana : it -- it 's ok , it 's ok . i 'm sorry , ok ? i 'm sorry i freaked out like that . i 've just been a little jumpy ever since -- never mind . daryl : what ? what 's going on ? adriana : nothing . it 's ok , really . daryl : ok , but if you ever want to talk , i 'm around . adriana : thanks . i 'm going to go inside and try to find rex . daryl : i 'll go with you .

[ scene_break ] jessica : what kind of person kidnaps a little girl , and video - tapes all the sick things that he does to them so the whole world can see ? 5-year - old girls ca n't defend themselves . and then they blame themselves . but it was n't my fault . and it was n't my parents ' fault . it was your fault . yours ! god , look at me . look at me ! i watched the tape . and i saw the police reports . we were people . rose and emily and lauren and tess and jessica -- we were children . we were just growing and learning and trying to discover the world around us . but we never should have discovered this . now , looking at you , i can only imagine the pain that you 're in . trapped in a body that 's slowing dying . well , that 's nothing compared to what you 're going to feel when you 're burning in hell . there 's nothing else for me here . i said what i came to say . ahem . viki : hey . you were very , very , very brave . jessica : when i looked at him , i remembered being at the bar . i was a little girl , and i just wanted to go home . and then i remember being led to the house . but i do n't remember the things that he did to me , other than what i saw on the tape . why do n't i remember ? viki : baby , it 's really enough for today . jessica : no . viki : please , let 's go home . jessica : no . not yet . if facing norman leeds is not going to bring back the memories , then maybe something else will . i want to go to the bar where it all started . would you take me there ? [ scene_break ] daryl : i 'll catch you all later . rex : ok , before you get all upset , i think -- adriana : too late . rex : it 's a bet , that 's all . it does n't mean i do n't like the guy just because i put some -- adriana : oh -- `` the guy `` happens to be my cousin . whether or not you like him is completely irrelevant . rex : adriana ? adriana , you 're missing the point . adriana : no , no , the point is you 're betting on him losing , on being completely humiliated . rex : whoa . talk about putting a spin on things . where does `` humiliation `` come into any of this ? i 'm betting on a guy losing a fight because it 's the right thing to do . cris hurt his hand in his last bout , so it seems kind of obvious -- adriana : wait , wait , wait . what 's this about `` the right thing `` ? why bet at all ? rex : why do you think ? why do people bet , adriana ? ok , multiple choice -- a , for their health , b , to feel good about themselves , c , for -- adriana : ok , i get it -- for the money . rex : right . it is , and since , as you put it before , i 'm not exactly loaded down with trust funds -- adriana : well , what about all the money you 're getting from claudia reston ? rex : shh . adriana : sorry . i mean , is n't that enough ? is n't it helping ? rex : no , it is n't . i mean , yeah , it pays the rent . but if i ever want to take you on vacation or cover you in bling , i -- adriana : oh , you think this is so amusing , do n't you ? rex : well , why is n't it ? i 'm not starting a war , i 'm making a bet , ok ? everything has been so serious and depressing lately , can you blame me for wanting to cut loose a little , huh ? get the adrenaline flowing ? adriana : you know what ? i take back what i said about how you 've matured . rex : i have . i 've turned over a new leaf . it does n't mean i 've stopped being rex balsom . look , i got to go make this bet before the fight starts . adriana : go , hurry . you do n't want to miss your big chance . rex : come on , it 's not personal . it 's like in vegas . just because i bet red and even does n't mean i have no respect for black and odd . do n't be mad . please ? i 'll be back . [ scene_break ] evangeline : go . go get ready for your match . cristian : i have plenty of time . evangeline : cristian , i 'll be fine . cristian : would you stop worrying about distracting me ? i told you -- i 'll be more distracted if i do n't know what 's going on with you . evangeline : ok . i 'll tell you what 's going on with me . i 'm going to go back in that courtroom and i 'm going to show everybody in this town that i am still the best damn defense attorney they will ever see . cristian : close your eyes . evangeline : and the point of that would be ? cristian : just do it . ok . now , for this moment , i want you to forget that when you open your eyes , you ca n't see . and i want you to put yourself in a courtroom , and i want you to try to remember what it 's like to feel that jury hanging on your every word . remember that rush ? evangeline : yeah . cristian : the one you get when you nail a witness on the stand , when you get them to crack ? and then -- then when you walk back to the defense table and you slowly sit down , poised and confident and in complete control of the situation ? you remember that feeling ? well , that feeling has nothing to do with being able to see . it 's all about what 's going on in here and what 's going on in here . and that is what 's going to put you back on top in the courtroom again . evangeline : i do n't know how you do it . you always know exactly what to say to lift my spirits . vincent : vega ? it 's two minutes to fight time . you need to start getting warm . cristian : i 'm going to win this . i 'm going to win it for you . all right . vincent : see you after the match ? layla : one can always hope . evangeline : i heard that , layla . layla : what ? what did you hear ? evangeline : i heard it in your voice -- you and vincent . do you have any idea what you 're doing ? layla : ok . you can play protective big sister later , but now you need to play supportive girlfriend . [ scene_break ] nash : after all that , you 're telling me no ? claudia : there 's no way i can get my hands on this kind of money without going to daddy , and he would never allow it , not after everything you pulled the last time . nash : the only mistake i made after everything i pulled was not bringing your dad down and leaving him bankrupt . claudia : what happened to the new - and - improved nash who felt terrible about stealing from me and my family when we were together ? nash : i feel terrible about taking stuff from you , but all bets were off when your daddy threatened my daughter . claudia : yeah , you know , you keep claiming that , but i have yet to see any proof . nash : you want proof ? claudia : yeah . nash : i 'll show you some proof . here you go -- black and white . i found that in my daughter 's crib while she was sleeping . that is why i got to get your daddy 's resources away from him -- so he will never be able to hurt me or any of my family ever again . that 's honest . are you in or out ? [ scene_break ] jessica : do you think that antonio was hurt that i did n't insist that he -- viki : sweetheart , honey ? it was his idea . he really thought it would be better if it was just you and your father and me . viki : darling , what is it ? jessica : i remember something . young jessica : can you help me ? can you take me home ? jessica : god . i 'm so close . i remember being in this bar , but everything that happened after norman leeds took me into that room , i just -- does n't exist . it seems that way , anyway . viki : sweetheart , your integration therapy has only just started . you really can not try and force anything right now . clint : hello , rose . rose : you 're -- you 're back ? jessica : are you the girl that helped us find norman leeds ' house ? wait , please , please . listen , my name 's jessica . i was a victim of him , too . rose : well , i do n't know what you 're talking about . jessica : yes , you do . i saw him . i saw norman leeds . [ scene_break ] antonio : did she make herself clear ? i spent the last 24 hours worried sick that she would n't make it through this day . that the abuse you heaped on her and the atrocities you committed would weaken her and make tess stronger , but they did n't . she overcame tess . she overcame watching the tape and she overcame you . and now -- and now she knows what i 've known all along -- that she has the ability to beat the sickness you left in place of her innocence 20 years ago , you -- you have no more power over her , norman . so now you 're going to have to deal with me . [ scene_break ] jessica : we did n't do anything wrong . it was norman leeds -- he did this to us . god , he took away a piece of our childhood . rose , he does n't have to take away our future . we have to stop living in shame . we have to stop pretending that we 're ok because we 're not . but we will be . oh . we will be . you have to try to talk to someone , ok ? your father or a doctor or some friends . i know how scary this is . you just have to stop hiding . rose : i 'll try . jessica : ok . rose : thank you .

jessica has tried everything and yet she ca n't remember the things that everyone expects her to . she goes to see leeds and he just lies there unconscious . he has little effect on her . she then goes to the bar and meets rose . she gives the woman a pep talk and leaves . she feels the memories trying to return but they do n't . she can hear her child voice in her head but that is all . antonio leaves jessica with her parents and goes to see leeds . he tells the man that jessica is over him and able to get back to her life now . the man flatlines . the nurses try to revive him but he dies what seems to be a peaceful death . antonio knows this man will never have peace even in death . adriana is on her way to the fight . she catches daryl following her and freaks out . he tells he was just making a delivery to rex . she calms down and they go to the fight together . while the fight is taking place , daryl turns to adriana and remarks that the fighter ' floats like a butterfly ' . adriana turns to him in horror . he is confused by her look . claudia arrives . nash pitches his idea but she ca n't get that kind of money now . she is scared of getting ripped off again . nash shows her the note her dad left him . she worries that he could be making this up . she decides to give him the money if he proves her father sent the note . later , she smiles over getting nash back from tess ! cristian is fighting . he is doing a great job of holding his own . he takes a hit and the ref starts counting . daryl sees that rex might have known what he was doing when me placed his bet on the other guy . cristian gets up though and starts fighting again . the crowd loves him . soon he takes another hit and sends him to the mat again .

[ scene_break ] jessica : what kind of person kidnaps a little girl , and video - tapes all the sick things that he does to them so the whole world can see ? 5-year - old girls ca n't defend themselves . and then they blame themselves . but it was n't my fault . and it was n't my parents ' fault . it was your fault . yours ! god , look at me . look at me ! i watched the tape . and i saw the police reports . we were people . rose and emily and lauren and tess and jessica -- we were children . we were just growing and learning and trying to discover the world around us . but we never should have discovered this . now , looking at you , i can only imagine the pain that you 're in . trapped in a body that 's slowing dying . well , that 's nothing compared to what you 're going to feel when you 're burning in hell . there 's nothing else for me here . i said what i came to say . ahem . viki : hey . you were very , very , very brave . jessica : when i looked at him , i remembered being at the bar . i was a little girl , and i just wanted to go home . and then i remember being led to the house . but i do n't remember the things that he did to me , other than what i saw on the tape . why do n't i remember ? viki : baby , it 's really enough for today . jessica : no . viki : please , let 's go home . jessica : no . not yet . if facing norman leeds is not going to bring back the memories , then maybe something else will . i want to go to the bar where it all started . would you take me there ? [ scene_break ] daryl : i 'll catch you all later . rex : ok , before you get all upset , i think -- adriana : too late . rex : it 's a bet , that 's all . it does n't mean i do n't like the guy just because i put some -- adriana : oh -- `` the guy `` happens to be my cousin . whether or not you like him is completely irrelevant . rex : adriana ? adriana , you 're missing the point . adriana : no , no , the point is you 're betting on him losing , on being completely humiliated . rex : whoa . talk about putting a spin on things . where does `` humiliation `` come into any of this ? i 'm betting on a guy losing a fight because it 's the right thing to do . cris hurt his hand in his last bout , so it seems kind of obvious -- adriana : wait , wait , wait . what 's this about `` the right thing `` ? why bet at all ? rex : why do you think ? why do people bet , adriana ? ok , multiple choice -- a , for their health , b , to feel good about themselves , c , for -- adriana : ok , i get it -- for the money . rex : right . it is , and since , as you put it before , i 'm not exactly loaded down with trust funds -- adriana : well , what about all the money you 're getting from claudia reston ? rex : shh . adriana : sorry . i mean , is n't that enough ? is n't it helping ? rex : no , it is n't . i mean , yeah , it pays the rent . but if i ever want to take you on vacation or cover you in bling , i -- adriana : oh , you think this is so amusing , do n't you ? rex : well , why is n't it ? i 'm not starting a war , i 'm making a bet , ok ? everything has been so serious and depressing lately , can you blame me for wanting to cut loose a little , huh ? get the adrenaline flowing ? adriana : you know what ? i take back what i said about how you 've matured . rex : i have . i 've turned over a new leaf . it does n't mean i 've stopped being rex balsom . look , i got to go make this bet before the fight starts . adriana : go , hurry . you do n't want to miss your big chance . rex : come on , it 's not personal . it 's like in vegas . just because i bet red and even does n't mean i have no respect for black and odd . do n't be mad . please ? i 'll be back . [ scene_break ] evangeline : go . go get ready for your match . cristian : i have plenty of time . evangeline : cristian , i 'll be fine . cristian : would you stop worrying about distracting me ? i told you -- i 'll be more distracted if i do n't know what 's going on with you . evangeline : ok . i 'll tell you what 's going on with me . i 'm going to go back in that courtroom and i 'm going to show everybody in this town that i am still the best damn defense attorney they will ever see . cristian : close your eyes . evangeline : and the point of that would be ? cristian : just do it . ok . now , for this moment , i want you to forget that when you open your eyes , you ca n't see . and i want you to put yourself in a courtroom , and i want you to try to remember what it 's like to feel that jury hanging on your every word . remember that rush ? evangeline : yeah . cristian : the one you get when you nail a witness on the stand , when you get them to crack ? and then -- then when you walk back to the defense table and you slowly sit down , poised and confident and in complete control of the situation ? you remember that feeling ? well , that feeling has nothing to do with being able to see . it 's all about what 's going on in here and what 's going on in here . and that is what 's going to put you back on top in the courtroom again . evangeline : i do n't know how you do it . you always know exactly what to say to lift my spirits . vincent : vega ? it 's two minutes to fight time . you need to start getting warm . cristian : i 'm going to win this . i 'm going to win it for you . all right . vincent : see you after the match ? layla : one can always hope . evangeline : i heard that , layla . layla : what ? what did you hear ? evangeline : i heard it in your voice -- you and vincent . do you have any idea what you 're doing ? layla : ok . you can play protective big sister later , but now you need to play supportive girlfriend . [ scene_break ] nash : after all that , you 're telling me no ? claudia : there 's no way i can get my hands on this kind of money without going to daddy , and he would never allow it , not after everything you pulled the last time . nash : the only mistake i made after everything i pulled was not bringing your dad down and leaving him bankrupt . claudia : what happened to the new - and - improved nash who felt terrible about stealing from me and my family when we were together ? nash : i feel terrible about taking stuff from you , but all bets were off when your daddy threatened my daughter . claudia : yeah , you know , you keep claiming that , but i have yet to see any proof . nash : you want proof ? claudia : yeah . nash : i 'll show you some proof . here you go -- black and white . i found that in my daughter 's crib while she was sleeping . that is why i got to get your daddy 's resources away from him -- so he will never be able to hurt me or any of my family ever again . that 's honest . are you in or out ? [ scene_break ] jessica : do you think that antonio was hurt that i did n't insist that he -- viki : sweetheart , honey ? it was his idea . he really thought it would be better if it was just you and your father and me . viki : darling , what is it ? jessica : i remember something . young jessica : can you help me ? can you take me home ? jessica : god . i 'm so close . i remember being in this bar , but everything that happened after norman leeds took me into that room , i just -- does n't exist . it seems that way , anyway . viki : sweetheart , your integration therapy has only just started . you really can not try and force anything right now . clint : hello , rose . rose : you 're -- you 're back ? jessica : are you the girl that helped us find norman leeds ' house ? wait , please , please . listen , my name 's jessica . i was a victim of him , too . rose : well , i do n't know what you 're talking about . jessica : yes , you do . i saw him . i saw norman leeds . [ scene_break ] antonio : did she make herself clear ? i spent the last 24 hours worried sick that she would n't make it through this day . that the abuse you heaped on her and the atrocities you committed would weaken her and make tess stronger , but they did n't . she overcame tess . she overcame watching the tape and she overcame you . and now -- and now she knows what i 've known all along -- that she has the ability to beat the sickness you left in place of her innocence 20 years ago , you -- you have no more power over her , norman . so now you 're going to have to deal with me . [ scene_break ] jessica : we did n't do anything wrong . it was norman leeds -- he did this to us . god , he took away a piece of our childhood . rose , he does n't have to take away our future . we have to stop living in shame . we have to stop pretending that we 're ok because we 're not . but we will be . oh . we will be . you have to try to talk to someone , ok ? your father or a doctor or some friends . i know how scary this is . you just have to stop hiding . rose : i 'll try . jessica : ok . rose : thank you .

[ scene_break ] theresa : got to get out of here . i 've got to get to ethan . fancy : your being with ethan is what got you here in the first place . do you ever learn from your mistakes ? theresa : it was n't a mistake to have ethan sent to your family 's cabin . you know , if we had n't , he would be dead right now . fancy : all you and noah did was prolong the inevitable . theresa : he deserves a chance to live , fancy . he should n't have his life terminated like some lab rat who 's outlived its usefulness . noah : easy , theresa . look , that 's not what gwen was doing . fancy : thank god at least one of you is rational . for the last time , theresa , gwen is ethan 's wife . she loves him just as much as you do . theresa : no , no , she does n't . see , gwen knows the truth , that ethan only married her because she was pregnant . he stayed with her out of guilt and obligation . but he does n't really love her , fancy . so gwen decided that if she ca n't have him , she 's going to kill him so no one else can . alistair : well , well , well . what do we have here ? fancy : oh , grampy . noah : as if this night could n't get any worse . alistair : feeling 's mutual , noah . now , this is the last place i 'd ever expect to find my granddaughter and wife . theresa : alistair , listen , about the money that i used for the ambulance -- alistair : oh , that 's the least of my concerns right now , theresa . theresa : then you 're not angry ? alistair : no , no , no , not at all . it took a lot of guts to do what you did . your willingness to give up and risk your life and liberty for the man you love -- it 's incredibly sexy . it really excites me , theresa . i can hardly wait to get you home so you can show me some of that latino spirit that you love to lavish on ethan . [ scene_break ] gwen : eve , i do n't understand why you 're asking me this right now . i mean , i thought you agreed that it was right to follow through with ethan 's wishes . eve : oh , honey , i do . it 's just after all this mess with theresa and noah , i just want to be certain that you are still sure . gwen : eve , the last thing in the world i want to do is take my husband off life support . but it is what i intend to do because it 's what he wanted me to do . eve : i 'll go to the lab and see if the latest test results are in , make sure they 've put a rush on it . gwen : ok . thank you . gwen : honey , i do n't know what theresa said to you up at the cabin . but she probably told you that she 's the one who loves you more than anything in the world . but that is not true . ethan , i love you . i love you with my whole heart and my whole soul and with everything that i am . and i am so sorry that i could n't protect you from her . she cost me so much precious time with you . she 's in jail now where she belongs . and it 's you and me , honey . it 's you and me till the end . theresa : you disgust me . alistair : what else is new ? you should be on your knees thanking me for forgiving you . theresa : i 'd rather spend the rest of my life rotting in jail . alistair : well , you will , unless you adjust that attitude of yours . i could leave you here , theresa . and i could divorce you on the grounds of emotional adultery and abandonment . theresa : be my guest . alistair : oh , god , theresa , you do n't really -- you do n't mean that . you know you do n't mean that . not you , who has tried to hard to avoid the financial fate of your mother and father . not you , who would do just about anything to make sure that your children get the kind of life you 've always aspired to but have never had . theresa : you do n't know me at all , alistair . alistair : oh , yes , i do . you want to get out of here so badly you can taste it . theresa : to be with my children and ethan , yes , not you . alistair : oh , ethan . what new strategy have you come up this time to keep him alive ? and how are you going to stop the woman who 's married to him from pulling the proverbial plug ? as far as we know , theresa , lover boy has drawn his last breath . theresa : no , wait , please . alistair : i thought you might change your mind . theresa : you did n't really come here to bail me out , right ? i mean , you came to get fancy and just gloat over my being locked up in here , is that correct ? alistair : wrong again , theresa . i 've already paid your bail . you 're free to go . fancy : i ca n't believe you bailed her out after what she 's done . my god , grandfather , she tried to murder you not once but twice . that 's why ethan is dying . you ca n't possibly want her back after this . alistair : fancy , i married theresa because she 's a challenge to me , she excites me . i just hope that little ethan has half the fire that she has . because with the crane genes and my upbringing , he will be the scion of the fortune for the crane family . theresa : leave my son out of your sick plans for the future , alistair . alistair : he is the future of my family , theresa . theresa : we 're not going to talk about this right now . alistair : well , of course not . you 've got other things on your mind . fancy : ahem . what about me , grampy ? you 're not going to keep me in here , are you ? alistair : no , princess , i 've paid your bail , too . you 're free to go . fancy : what about noah ? what he did is n't nearly as bad as theresa . please bail him out , too . alistair : let me think about that for a minute . no .

[ judge pounds gavel ] judge : court is back in session . mr. lansing , you may continue . ric : thank you , your honor . before i continue , i would like to acknowledge the fact that though this seems highly irregular , there is a purpose . that is why we are here . as mr. durant so aptly and passionately expressed in his final summation , we are here because we value justice . we 're also here because we need to uncover the truth . my co - counsel for the prosecution has made much of the fact that mr. corinthos here has confessed , when the fact is that fully 40 % of all defendants charges in criminal proceedings initially confess and then later recant , and then many of those are found innocent , but i digress . people confess for many different reasons . some confess because they are pressured by the police or because they feel guilty for hating someone or wishing them ill will . others confess for the reasons that mr. corinthos did -- to protect someone else . in this case , it was mr. corinthos ' son michael . when michael corinthos was subpoenaed , he was in the throes of a posttraumatic stress . the child could not speak and he had difficulty distinguishing between dreams and reality . the boy had been traumatized for months . so mr. corinthos confessed -- to protect his child from further anguish . i 'm sure those of you who are parents would 've done the very same thing . a case built on questionable confession and no corroborating evidence should be withdrawn . this particular case went forward because john durant was so eager to prosecute . he was willing to imply that his own daughter , carly corinthos , had killed a.j . quartermaine to draw mr. corinthos out and pressure him to confess . this has not been a murder trial . this has been an exercise in intimidation on the part of a man who simply just does n't like his ex - son - in- law . he 's so determined to keep sonny corinthos away from his daughter that he was willing to put his own grandson on the witness stand and badger him and bully him to the point where he would incriminate his own father . but it did n't work . little michael corinthos stood up . stood up for his father , and he stood up to john durant . you all have that opportunity now . you have the opportunity to uphold the law , to show that this case has not been proven , and to acquit sonny corinthos with a verdict of not guilty . ric : thank you . judge : is the defense prepared to give its closing arguments ? justus : d.a . lansing 's statement is complete , your honor . the defense rests .

[ judge pounds gavel ] judge : court is back in session . mr. lansing , you may continue . ric : thank you , your honor . before i continue , i would like to acknowledge the fact that though this seems highly irregular , there is a purpose . that is why we are here . as mr. durant so aptly and passionately expressed in his final summation , we are here because we value justice . we 're also here because we need to uncover the truth . my co - counsel for the prosecution has made much of the fact that mr. corinthos here has confessed , when the fact is that fully 40 % of all defendants charges in criminal proceedings initially confess and then later recant , and then many of those are found innocent , but i digress . people confess for many different reasons . some confess because they are pressured by the police or because they feel guilty for hating someone or wishing them ill will . others confess for the reasons that mr. corinthos did -- to protect someone else . in this case , it was mr. corinthos ' son michael . when michael corinthos was subpoenaed , he was in the throes of a posttraumatic stress . the child could not speak and he had difficulty distinguishing between dreams and reality . the boy had been traumatized for months . so mr. corinthos confessed -- to protect his child from further anguish . i 'm sure those of you who are parents would 've done the very same thing . a case built on questionable confession and no corroborating evidence should be withdrawn . this particular case went forward because john durant was so eager to prosecute . he was willing to imply that his own daughter , carly corinthos , had killed a.j . quartermaine to draw mr. corinthos out and pressure him to confess . this has not been a murder trial . this has been an exercise in intimidation on the part of a man who simply just does n't like his ex - son - in- law . he 's so determined to keep sonny corinthos away from his daughter that he was willing to put his own grandson on the witness stand and badger him and bully him to the point where he would incriminate his own father . but it did n't work . little michael corinthos stood up . stood up for his father , and he stood up to john durant . you all have that opportunity now . you have the opportunity to uphold the law , to show that this case has not been proven , and to acquit sonny corinthos with a verdict of not guilty . ric : thank you . judge : is the defense prepared to give its closing arguments ? justus : d.a . lansing 's statement is complete , your honor . the defense rests .

[ scene_break ] nikolas : when spencer was born , i was ... quick to hand him off to the help , 'cause i felt like i was gon na do something wrong or i was gon na fail him in some way . so i provided him with a steady stream of tutors and nannies , thus dooming him to the same lonely existence that i had to endure during my life . i made a conscious effort not to do that with aiden . i tried to be a real father to him . and spencer deserves that , too . lucky : what does that mean ? what do you plan on doing ? nikolas : i 'm leaving here . for good . i 'm gon na go , get a fresh new start . there 's just too many memories for me here , man . elizabeth : where are you going ? nikolas : i 'm going to go to zurich for now , i guess . um , i made arrangements for norma to stay on as aiden 's nanny , if you like . i 've paid her through the year , so it 's -- you can ... elizabeth : that 's very generous of you . nikolas : i just did n't want everyone in aiden 's life that he 's come to rely on to suddenly disappear all at once . elizabeth : i know things are complicated , but i want you to stay a part of aiden 's life . nikolas : i -- lucky : no , i do , too . i mean -- but i understand if that 's asking too much right now . nikolas : [ sighs ] aiden is n't the only reason why i 'm leaving . emily 's death had a profound effect on my life . in the years since , all i 've done is try and find a ... a substitute for her . you know , someone who could get me back to that place where i 'm ... truly happy . and all i wound up doing was hurting the people i love the most . lucky : it does n't mean you have to leave , nikolas . i mean , that 's in the past . nikolas : no . i used to take comfort in knowing that i could still feel her around me . and now it 's all just a reminder of what i can never have again . elizabeth : you do n't know that . nikolas : what emily and i had , elizabeth ... nothing will ever compare to that . nothing .

( sighs ) nick : hey . victoria : so , you know , it really was n't that long ago that you and i were talking about buying beauty of nature and running it together . nick : that was never all that realistic . dad wo n't t it go . victoria : well , he already did . nick : temporarily . he is determined to get beauty of nature for rick , and for your sake , i hope he does . victoria : for my sake ? nick : yes , vick . it 's never a good idea for family members to be competing against each other in business . it 's too easy for things to get ugly . victoria : oh , well , i do n't think that things could get really any uglier than they are between dad and me right now . nick : i 'm not so sure about that . victoria : well , that 's not a reason for me to give this up . nick : ( sighs ) look , vick , i know how much beauty of nature means to you . you took it when it was a virtual unknown and turned it into a worldwide success , but , vick , you can do that with any other company . you owning beauty of nature -- it just means that you 're gon na be locked in bate with dad until the day he dies . is that what you want ? victoria : i told you that it is n't . nick : then why have n't you backed off ? victoria : i really think you need to sit down and ask yourself why you 're really doing this . tucker : scotch , neat .

[ dramatic music ] victor : thank you very much . well , my man down at the station says it 's a done deal . eduardo hernandez was arrested . and here 's the kicker . he was arrested by his son . deimos : rafe ?

[ chuckles ] mm . kayla : we will find a way . we will . and there 's enough evidence to prove that ava was insane , not to mention evil . steve : you 're right . we 'll find a way . we just have to keep at it . ava already used our joe to hurt this family . i 'll be damned if i let her use my other son . not gon na happen . joey : no , i do n't -- [ sighs ] i do n't want to talk about ava . tripp : sort of sounds like you agree with your parents . joey : yeah , pretty much . i mean , i did n't know her long , but ... tripp : but what ? joey : she lied about everything , man . she was a freak . she kidnapped my mom , almost starved her to death . she bashed her over the head , gave her some big concussion . my mom used to faint . she used to just faint , man , out of the blue . she had to have an operation 'cause her brain was bleeding . ava was messed up . tripp : i hear you , man . but ... [ sighs ] just -- i 'm just saying , put yourself in my shoes . because the only fact that counts for me is that my father killed my mother . that 's reason enough for me to never even talk to him again . joey : that would break his heart . tripp : yeah , well , too bad . he earned that when he smothered her to death . joey : tripp , do n't go . tripp , you ca n't go , okay ? [ sighs ] look ... you do n't know what happened to your mother . tripp : what are you talking about ? joey : you need to know the truth . stay , okay ? and i 'll tell you ... what really happened .
steve and kayla are unable to find tripp as he 's away watching the recordings of ava he got from angelo while joey wants to tell tripp the truth that he killed ava but they refuse . tripp eventually comes home to the loft and continues arguing with steve about ava . rafe and hope watch the docks hoping to catch deimos but end up seeing eduardo making an illegal deal for stolen us treasury bonds forcing rafe to arrest his own father . deimos informs victor of how he knew hope bugged the mansion so he staged phone calls and set her up to take down his enemy in eduardo .
<s>[INST] rafe : deimos ? [ line rings ] eduardo : yeah , it 's hernandez , and i 'm wondering where the hell you are . well , get here ! steve : i do n't have a clue where he is . i looked everywhere i could think of , and i came up with nothing . joey : tripp said he was running some errands . he did n't say anything about being out all night . steve : and half of the next day . kayla : well , i called the hospital , and he has n't been admitted . steve : yeah , there 's no plane ticket for a tripp dalton . and there 's no telling about trains and buses , though . kayla : we 're gon na find him , steve . steve : i blew it . i found a son i did n't know i had . all i wanted to do was get to know him and make him welcome in this family . and then -- joey : and then you confessed to something you did n't do . you got to tell him the truth , dad . he needs to know that i 'm the one who killed ava . ava : my precious baby boy . i honestly think my whole life has been building to this . i ca n't wait for you to be born . i 'm going to love you so much . one thing , though , honey , you need to know . there are people out there who are going to say they love you ... when they do n't . they just want to get close to you so they can hurt you . trust your mom on this . she knows . but not to worry . i 'll be there to help you . it 's so exciting . once you 're born , people are gon na see how much i can love . i 'm gon na give you this recording on your 21st birthday . wo n't that be something ? to know how much i loved you before you were even born ? tripp : [ sniffles ] deimos : excellent . [ chuckles ] i could n't be happier . victor : well , look who 's smiling . what , you got a hot lead on nicole ? deimos : no . but i will find her . that 's if the cops do n't beat me to it . victor : well , then why the smile ? deimos : i 've decided to focus on titan for now . and if all goes well , we could see the end of one of our biggest rivals . kate : [ sighs ] eddie , i ca n't wait here forever . if we 're gon na talk , we 're gon na have to be in the same room . gabi : hey , what was -- what was that about ? are you maybe giving my dad another chance ? because that would be great . kate : well , yeah , maybe , but , uh , looks like i might have been stood up . eduardo : whoa . man , i am running very late , so let me see what you got . these accidentally fell into my hands . cool , huh ? eduardo : u.s . bearer bonds . untraceable , good as cash . eduardo : perfect . it 's a clean hundred mil . i can put that to very , very good use . as for you ... these look and feel like the real thing . they got perfect numbers . they got perfect letter sequencing . you can get any loan you want over there with these . those eastern european banks , you know , they 're desperate . they 'll -- they 'll take any american corporate bonds as collateral . that 's what i 'm counting on . eduardo : yeah . so here you go . it was good doing business with you . i assume you realize i never want to see you again , so enjoy your very extended vacation . [ chuckles ] i 'm on a plane in two hours . eduardo : excellent . [ dramatic music ] rafe : hey . eduardo : yeah . got to say , i 'm surprised to see you here . rafe : mm - hmm . eduardo : i was just , uh , picking up a delivery from a colleague . this guy has been holding some really sensitive papers for me for a long time , decade , maybe -- two , maybe two . from back when i was sent to the middle east and -- rafe : stop . just stop . eduardo : sorry ? rafe : i saw everything . [ scoffs ] you 've got $ 100 million worth of t - bonds in there . no , just do n't make it worse by lying to my face . eduardo : i do n't know what you think you saw , but come on , man . rafe : i recorded everything . eduardo : you recorded that ? rafe : yeah . eduardo : what the hell are you doing , man ? you been following me ? rafe : no , i 'm not following you . for god 's sake . [ scoffs ] i got a tip that deimos kiriakis was gon na be down here , and i was hoping to catch him doing something illegal . eduardo : so deimos must have gotten the word about this . he must have gotten a tip that i was having this meeting , so he used you . incredible -- he used you to set me up . rafe : that 's what you 're going with ? that 's what you 're going with right now ? that 's your story ? you 're gon na blame deimos kiriakis for this ? eduardo : what ? hey , man , this is obviously a setup . you know , that man is our enemy , not just mine . okay , what -- hey . this is just business . rafe : uh - huh . is dario involved in this ? eduardo : no ! rafe : hmm ? does he know about it ? eduardo : he knows nothing about this . he knows nothing whatsoever . i need you to do me a solid here , son . you know , i mean ... just this once . just -- you just got to look the other way . i mean , we can both erase the last half hour . maybe we can -- we can forget this ever happened , man . you know , hey . we can donate these bonds to charity . whatever you think . whatever you think would be best . rafe : right . eduardo : you -- you got my back , right ? rafe : yeah , yeah . [ muttering ] `` you can always just forget about it , just , like -- why do n't you just pretend that it did n't happen ? `` eduardo : just this one thing , man . rafe : forget about the oath that i took or my integrity ... or the fact that i told you not to do anything stupid . i ca n't . i ca n't do it . [ dramatic music ] eduardo : [ sighs ] well , then i guess you better do your -- your duty . [ handcuffs rattling ] rafe : eduardo hernandez ... you have the right to remain silent . anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law . you have the right to an attorney . if you ca n't afford one , one will be appointed for you . steve : you listen to me , joe . this is about your life , your freedom . so you get that idea out of your head . tripp can never know what really happened with ava . are we clear ? joey : yeah , i guess . kayla : no , no , this is -- steve : you guess ? kayla : this is not , `` i guess , `` joey . this is , `` yes , i understand . i will never tell tripp , ever . `` do you got that ? joey : no ! i do n't understand . steve : joe , man , listen .

'cause you care ? steve : yeah , we care . you 're my son . now , i know you do n't trust me right now . i know it 's hard for you to believe that i had a valid reason for doing what i did . tripp : murder my mother ? yeah , kind of hard , `` dad . `` kayla : steve did n't want to do what he did . joey : he had no choice . steve : tripp , i understand why you 're angry . i know it 's gon na take some time to deal with all this . but i want you to know i 'm gon na work hard to gain your trust . i want to make things right between us . tripp : you all act like it 's so important for me to be a part of your precious little family ... such loving , caring people . well , the problem with that is , i know who you really are . [ suspenseful music ] victor : hope planted a bug in this house ? deimos : yes , she did , some time ago . thankfully , i knew it from the start , so i was able to turn it to our advantage . victor : how ? deimos : i staged a few phone conversations , knowing that she was listening . then i sent her off to catch me doing something horribly illegal . the only thing is , she wo n't find me there doing the big bad no - no . it 'll be eduardo hernandez . victor : oh , really ? boy , would i love to be there to see the look on his face when he finds out he 's been set up . deimos : hmm . priceless , i 'm sure . victor : [ laughs ] dario : yeah -- yeah , i 'm on it . gabi , come on . let 's go . gabi : what 's going on ? dario : dad 's been arrested . come on . gabi : what ? dario : come on ! kate : go , go , go . gabi : okay . come on dad ! tripp : what 's the matter ? hmm ? nothing to say ? no big promises , love , affection , deep family bonds , huh ? kayla : i think we 're all just a little thrown by all this , that you -- you know who we really are -- tripp : liars . steve : what have we lied about ? tripp : about who my mother really was . you see , i 've had a chance to work things out . i sat and watched these over and over . steve : what are those ? tripp : my mother -- talking to me before i was born . kayla : where on earth would you get something like that ? tripp : my mom 's cousin gave them to me . it shows the real ava vitali . surprise -- she 's not the worst person in the world , totally unstable . steve : tripp , listen to me -- tripp : no ! i do n't want to hear any more lies from you or anybody else ! my mother was a loving , caring ...

[ scene_break ] aj : tracy , please , do n't tell elizabeth i slept with carly . tracy : too bad . i think elizabeth needs to know you and carly engaged in some steamy hate sex . elizabeth : have a nice life , aj . aj : elizabeth , wait . wait . please . please , please , listen to me . listen to me . elizabeth , please . you ca n't just play that and walk out . elizabeth : do n't act like i 'm doing something wrong . you 're the one who hopped into bed with carly . aj : it -- it was n't like that . where did you even get that recording ? elizabeth : [ chuckling ] whoa , wait a minute . that 's what you 're concerned with ? not what you did but how you got caught ? ! aj : never mind . you know what ? i know exactly where you got it .

[ scene_break ] franco : i know who tried to kill me . more than that , they know i know . so , believe me , no one will be trying to kill me again anytime soon . ava : sounds like you have it all figured out . enlighten me , franco . who tried to have you killed ? [ scene_break ] luke : l'chaim . tracy : why is it always one step forward , three steps back with you ? luke : i have a better question -- why are you such a downer ? we should be celebrating . tracy : celebrating ? ! you collapse on my floor , i rush you to the hospital , the doctor tells you you have been exposed to a toxic substance . what 's to celebrate ? luke : may i remind you that this is not my first ride on the toxic rodeo ? tracy : oh , that is comforting . you 've been poisoned before . luke : a lot of things were supposed to kill me , and they did n't . tracy : because you did n't stand around getting snookered . luke : may i remind you that whatever it is that 's taken root in my gut is yet to be identified ? tracy : it does n't make it any less real or dangerous . luke : lacking any kind of diagnosis or treatment , i plan to enjoy myself until the doctors figure out just how they 're gon na flush my system . tracy : i do n't think that 's gon na be very easy . man : um -- delivery for luke spencer . luke : spanky , you should n't have . tracy : i did n't . who did ? man : uh , they do n't tell us . tracy : `` get well soon ? `` luke : i told you not to tell anybody about this . tracy : really , luke ? i did n't tell anybody . luke : well , somebody found out . tracy : well , there 's probably a card in here somewhere . luke : yes ? man : um , it 's , uh -- it 's customary that , uh , you leave a tip . luke : you want a tip ? man : yeah . luke : never rub another man 's rhubarb -- unless , of course , you 're planning to make cobbler .

[ scene_break ] franco : why focus on my failed assassination ? there are so many other , happier subjects we could focus on . ava : many people would consider your death , however it came about , to be a very happy subject . franco : now , you 're just saying that 'cause you 're an art dealer , and the stock went right up as soon as my `` supposed death `` occurred . but do n't worry . i 'm still hanging in the most respected modern - art galleries in the world , and i have a feeling my work will continue to appreciate . in fact , i 've got a mind - blowing idea . i 'm cogitating a series based on what you said -- you know , the whole my head on a platter -- ava : cogitate this 1 - - you nearly died a couple of nights ago . who do you think tried to kill you ? carly : you think i hired someone to try and take you out ? franco : carly , you hate my guts . i had a party . sonny was there . he pointed a gun at me , and you said exactly these words -- you said , `` go ahead . end his miserable life . `` carly : yeah . i said that . i meant it . franco : then all of a sudden , the bullets start flying , and i could have died , which is exactly what you wanted , is n't it , carly ? carly : that 's an interesting story . franco : you get an `` a `` for effort . franco : ava , that 's need - to - know information . ava : come on , franco . thrill me with your legendary powers . who shot at you , and how did they manage to get away ? i hear the police are no closer to making an arrest . franco : well , the police lack imagination . ava : which you have in spades . what did artforum say ? `` on par with rothko . `` franco : oh , comparisons are so bourgeois . i think that every artist has his own unique , intrinsic qualities . ava : there 's unique , and then there 's you . nobody sees the world quite the way you do . franco : you did , once . or at least you pretended to . ava : i enjoyed the off - kilter way you looked at almost everything -- until it got dangerous . i bet you like it that someone tried to kill you . in some perverse way , i imagine you 're -- pleased . franco : that is so cute ! look at you trying to work me . you know , you used to be so much better at it . ava : i 'm trying to get an answer , and you do n't have one to give . you have no idea who tried to kill you . franco : no , i did n't say that . i just -- i do n't think it 's any of [ chuckling ] your business . ava : oh . how very wrong you are . [ scene_break ] aj : i ca n't believe that nikolas played that for you . elizabeth : it is n't nikolas ' fault that you had hate sex with carly and then lied about it . aj : it 's his fault that you know about it . wait , wait . he -- he gave you the recording , did n't he ? he did that so he could pry you away from me and have you for himself . elizabeth : i am not some thing that you can just have . aj : you tell that to nikolas , because he 's been holding that recording over my head . he promised me that you would never hear that . so much for saint nikolas . elizabeth : actually , he did n't break his promise . the recording was heard by mistake . aj : oh , yeah , right . i 'm sure he was deeply distressed , right ? `` whoopsie ! did n't mean for you to hear that one . hey , but since you did , what do you say we go motor over to my island and play ' hide the scepter ? ' `` elizabeth : [ chuckling ] god , are you listening to yourself ? so spiteful and no matter what you do , it 's not your fault . you really are the same selfish , self - absorbed mama 's boy you 've always been . aj : okay , that 's not fair . elizabeth : you know what ? a real man would own up to what he did and not try to deflect blame on nikolas . nikolas did n't get naked with carly . you did . [ scene_break ] nikolas : so , what happened with shawn ? alexis : he 's at the police station . he 's turning himself in . nikolas : for what ? alexis : i 'm not at liberty to say , for legal reasons . nikolas : well , i saw the news earlier . the police brought sonny in for questioning in connection with a shooting at the metro court , and we both know he never gets his hands dirty . alexis : there 's no proof that he was involved in any of this . nikolas : there never is . alexis , you assured me that shawn was n't taking jason 's place in sonny 's organization , did n't you ? well , i think he did . i think he 's now sonny 's enforcer , which probably means he 's the one who shot olivia . [ scene_break ] carly : so many people want franco dead , but someone picked the exact place , the exact time , and the exact mo as i did . what are the odds of that ? shawn : look , all i care is that you , and i were n't to blame for getting olivia shot . carly : oh , thank god . god . shawn : all this time , i 've been walking around with her blood on my hands , my soul . but i did n't shoot olivia . i did n't put her in the hospital , and neither did you . carly : no . [ chuckles ] we no longer have targets on our backs . sonny has no reason to want us dead anymore . [ scene_break ] olivia : you were definitely in the middle of something . sort of felt like i was interrupting something just by , uh , waking up . was i ?

[ scene_break ] franco : if you are so concerned with my welfare , why did you try and gut me with a letter opener ? ava : would you like an apology ? franco : yes , i would . and i 'd like for you to mean it . ava : i spent kiki 's whole life protecting her from you . when she 'd ask about her father , i 'd give vague answers -- that he was not a good guy and that he died . franco : did you ever show her my work ? ava : what if she 'd loved it -- especially the early stuff before you got all morbid and twisted ? franco : do n't knock morbid and twisted . it 's paid the bills . [ sighs ] ava : i was afraid i 'd break -- that i 'd give in and tell kiki that her father was a -- talented , visionary artist . and then i 'd have to tell her the rest -- that for all your gifts , for all your genius , you 're a monster . franco : you do n't need to call me that , you know ? and you do n't need to protect kiki from me anymore . ava : i 'm trying to get there . it 's just gon na take me a long time to adjust . and in the meantime , i 'm pretty concerned about our takeover of elq . franco : oh , right , the takeover . ava : because who knows what happens to your shares if you die ? maybe they get watered down . maybe the get redistributed among the family . either way , i do n't want to find out . my financial security depends upon your survival . franco : oh , well , hey , then pay off your mortgage and go buy yourself something sexy and italian and red , because i 'm not going anywhere . [ scene_break ] alexis : i want to tell you . i just -- i do n't know how to say it . nikolas : fine . fine . i 'll say it for you . you tell me if i get anything wrong , all right ? shawn 's not the man you wanted him to be . part of you knew it all along . you just turned a blind eye . now you ca n't deny it and do n't know if you can stay with him . [ scene_break ] shawn : look , i 'll get sonny up to speed and get things patched up . carly : i 'll go with you . shawn : no , no . bad -- bad idea , okay ? i 'll probably find sonny at the hospital with olivia , and it 'll be easier for me to talk to him if you 're not there . carly : [ chuckles ] shawn : i 'll -- i 'll fix it , carly , okay ? carly : you just tell him i want to talk to him . shawn : and i 'll make sure he 's ready to listen . carly : thank you . shawn : no . thanks to the other shooter . carly : yeah , the other person who wanted franco dead . shawn : hey . go home , okay ? give joss a kiss and do n't think about franco any more tonight , okay ? [ scene_break ] aj : i 'm sorry you 're upset . i really am , but if you just let me explain , please . elizabeth : oh , please , god , no . i - i - i can tell the story myself . `` i was weak and helpless , and carly preyed on me . it was just a one - time thing . `` aj : it was just once . elizabeth : `` carly means nothing to me . `` aj : she means less than nothing . elizabeth : listen to me , aj . whatever was between us , i honestly , honestly thought it meant more than just some one - time roll in the hay with carly . aj : elizabeth , you mean everything to me . my future is with you , not with carly . elizabeth : speaking of carly , there 's the slut now . [ scene_break ] luke : why would franco send me a dvd ? tracy : well , this was the scene of his coming - out party , and from what i hear , videos were part of the fun . luke : well , yeah , but how would he know that i should `` get well soon `` ? tracy : he is a master of mind games . he exploits people 's weaknesses . luke : i met the man once for about 10 minutes . he does n't know me . tracy : who else would go to all the trouble ? besides , have n't you already killed all your other t - tormentors ? helena : hello , luke . miss me ? [ scene_break ] franco : i like being needed by you . i always did . you used to be a lot nicer about it , though . ava : i did n't need you back then . franco : yeah , you did . [ chuckles ] i was a superstar . being with me -- had cachet . ava : people were lining up to exploit you . i was n't one of them . i saw something amazing in you -- something so dazzling i could n't see the darkness underneath . franco : you saw the darkness . you liked it . you still do . ava : what do you think kiki will think of your dark side ? how much are you willing to tell her , to show her ? franco : i 'll tell her the truth . you know , no one 's all bad . ava : well -- if you 're gon na convince kiki of that , you 're gon na need me to vouch for you . franco : how are you gon na do that ? you two are n't even speaking . ava : i love my daughter . and she loves me . we 'll get past whatever difficulties we 're having . franco : yeah , you hope . ava : if you think you can win kiki over on your own , fine . go for it . see how far you get working at cross purposes with her mother . franco : did you just refer to yourself in the third person ? ava : [ sighs ] or -- franco : you did , did n't you ? ava : we can work together . franco : [ laughs ] finally , the point . do n't get me wrong -- you were always terrific at the buildup . you were a great negotiator . ava : no negotiation . we either do this my way or not at all . franco : okay . what are we doing ? what is it we 're doing here ? ava : i have the perfect means of disarming kiki . you and i are getting back together . [ scene_break ] nikolas : leave shawn now . alexis : no . nikolas : yeah . make -- make a clean break . whatever good you see in him does n't change the reality of what he 's chosen to do . if you do n't end it now , you 're gon na end up just like sam . alexis : sam and i are in very different places in our lives . nikolas : [ chuckling ] no . not -- not really , alexis . she loved jason , accepted what he did , the risks that he took , including the fact that he killed people on sonny 's orders , as if that somehow absolves him of blame . alexis : well , not absolve . maybe mitigate the blame a little bit -- for jason and shawn . nikolas : even if shawn does n't end up dead like jason , he 's still a criminal and a killer by choice . that goes against everything you believe in . alexis : you know , it 's too bad that you did n't pursue a legal career , because that was a really persuasive argument . nikolas : look , shawn trades in violence , you know ? and violence ca n't be managed or contained . all you have to do is look at sonny . look at how his business has affected his children , right ? i mean , morgan 's the only one that 's come out relatively unscathed . you want to take that risk with molly ? alexis : no . no , of course , i do n't . nikolas : yeah . alexis : but , truly , who am i to judge ? i mean , i ran over kristina 's abuser and left him there to die . nikolas : alexis , you were driving your severely beaten daughter to the hospital . your car struck kiefer by accident . there was no intent there . it 's a far cry from being a paid killer . alexis : thank you for that . and i know . i know you 're right . nikolas : but -- alexis : but it does n't change the fact that i love the guy .

[ scene_break ] helena : it 's remarkable . do n't you agree ? that something so -- so insignificant , so tacky , could be so deadly . tracy : your earring ? helena : on its own , it 's -- merely a -- well , a vulgar affectation , but when laced with a toxin , it becomes the cause of your ruin . all i needed was one quiet moment to make the exchange . while you were mercifully unconscious , my men replaced your earring with the one you 're wearing , and voilá . well , the dose was n't strong enough to kill you where you stood , but it will and soon . death delayed is death , all the same . you may have killed me , luke , but i killed you , too . [ scene_break ] olivia : i do n't know what you 're talking about . i 've been unconscious for days . connie : because you put yourself in the path of a bullet that was meant for sonny . olivia : whoa , whoa . just to be clear , here , i ran out there to warn sonny . i had no intention of -- of taking a bullet for the guy . connie : but still , liv , you did n't put your life on the line because you felt some obligation to dante 's father . you did it because you have feelings for sonny . [ scene_break ] sonny : it 's a huge relief , knowing that you 're not responsible for getting olivia shot . shawn : okay , well , not just me , you know ? carly 's innocent , as well . sonny : she still lied to you . she lied to me . she almost brought us all down . shawn : right . all right , look . she ca n't help it . come on . you know , look . she felt her kids were threatened . sonny : right . shawn : you know , when carly feels , she acts . you know , without jason to keep her in line -- i 'm just saying -- you know , just a period of adjustment . sonny : she 's still not clear on this . shawn : well , neither am i . you know , i 'm -- i 'm glad olivia 's gon na be okay , but this whole thing , man -- [ sighs ] it cost me .

[ chuckling ] so , what -- what was i -- what was i supposed to do ? i mean , she confronted me about it right there . i had to confirm that it was real , right ? alexis : so , elizabeth has the phone , and she 's going to confront aj . nikolas : yes , that appears to be the case . alexis : [ sighs ] so , do you think this clears a path for you and elizabeth ? nikolas : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] carly : okay , this has been fun , but you guys seem like you have a lot to do and a lot to talk about . elizabeth : wait a minute , carly . i am not through with you . yes , aj , i do remember that night , and i remember the phone call , and when i hung up , i felt bad , too . that 's why i went to your house to apologize . but now it all makes sense . your mother was reluctant to let me in . she said you were sleeping , but now i realize she was covering for you , was n't she ? you were upstairs with carly . aj : i thought you were through with me . i thought we were over . i swear to you , i had no idea that you were downstairs . elizabeth : okay , but then when you did come downstairs , and we talked , and we made up , carly was still in your bed ? carly : no , no . no , i was not . i was dressed , trying to get out of there . elizabeth : why did n't you just tell me the truth ? why did n't you come clean ? aj : i did n't want to hurt you -- our chances . i -- i was right . i mean , can you honestly tell me that if i told you what had happened , that we 'd still be together ? elizabeth : are we together now ? aj : i guess i have my answer . you 're dumping me again .

[ scene_break ] franco : why focus on my failed assassination ? there are so many other , happier subjects we could focus on . ava : many people would consider your death , however it came about , to be a very happy subject . franco : now , you 're just saying that 'cause you 're an art dealer , and the stock went right up as soon as my `` supposed death `` occurred . but do n't worry . i 'm still hanging in the most respected modern - art galleries in the world , and i have a feeling my work will continue to appreciate . in fact , i 've got a mind - blowing idea . i 'm cogitating a series based on what you said -- you know , the whole my head on a platter -- ava : cogitate this 1 - - you nearly died a couple of nights ago . who do you think tried to kill you ? carly : you think i hired someone to try and take you out ? franco : carly , you hate my guts . i had a party . sonny was there . he pointed a gun at me , and you said exactly these words -- you said , `` go ahead . end his miserable life . `` carly : yeah . i said that . i meant it . franco : then all of a sudden , the bullets start flying , and i could have died , which is exactly what you wanted , is n't it , carly ? carly : that 's an interesting story . franco : you get an `` a `` for effort . franco : ava , that 's need - to - know information . ava : come on , franco . thrill me with your legendary powers . who shot at you , and how did they manage to get away ? i hear the police are no closer to making an arrest . franco : well , the police lack imagination . ava : which you have in spades . what did artforum say ? `` on par with rothko . `` franco : oh , comparisons are so bourgeois . i think that every artist has his own unique , intrinsic qualities . ava : there 's unique , and then there 's you . nobody sees the world quite the way you do . franco : you did , once . or at least you pretended to . ava : i enjoyed the off - kilter way you looked at almost everything -- until it got dangerous . i bet you like it that someone tried to kill you . in some perverse way , i imagine you 're -- pleased . franco : that is so cute ! look at you trying to work me . you know , you used to be so much better at it . ava : i 'm trying to get an answer , and you do n't have one to give . you have no idea who tried to kill you . franco : no , i did n't say that . i just -- i do n't think it 's any of [ chuckling ] your business . ava : oh . how very wrong you are .

[ scene_break ] nikolas : so , what happened with shawn ? alexis : he 's at the police station . he 's turning himself in . nikolas : for what ? alexis : i 'm not at liberty to say , for legal reasons . nikolas : well , i saw the news earlier . the police brought sonny in for questioning in connection with a shooting at the metro court , and we both know he never gets his hands dirty . alexis : there 's no proof that he was involved in any of this . nikolas : there never is . alexis , you assured me that shawn was n't taking jason 's place in sonny 's organization , did n't you ? well , i think he did . i think he 's now sonny 's enforcer , which probably means he 's the one who shot olivia . [ scene_break ] carly : so many people want franco dead , but someone picked the exact place , the exact time , and the exact mo as i did . what are the odds of that ? shawn : look , all i care is that you , and i were n't to blame for getting olivia shot . carly : oh , thank god . god . shawn : all this time , i 've been walking around with her blood on my hands , my soul . but i did n't shoot olivia . i did n't put her in the hospital , and neither did you . carly : no .

[ scene_break ] franco : if you are so concerned with my welfare , why did you try and gut me with a letter opener ? ava : would you like an apology ? franco : yes , i would . and i 'd like for you to mean it . ava : i spent kiki 's whole life protecting her from you . when she 'd ask about her father , i 'd give vague answers -- that he was not a good guy and that he died . franco : did you ever show her my work ? ava : what if she 'd loved it -- especially the early stuff before you got all morbid and twisted ? franco : do n't knock morbid and twisted . it 's paid the bills . [ sighs ] ava : i was afraid i 'd break -- that i 'd give in and tell kiki that her father was a -- talented , visionary artist . and then i 'd have to tell her the rest -- that for all your gifts , for all your genius , you 're a monster . franco : you do n't need to call me that , you know ? and you do n't need to protect kiki from me anymore . ava : i 'm trying to get there . it 's just gon na take me a long time to adjust . and in the meantime , i 'm pretty concerned about our takeover of elq . franco : oh , right , the takeover . ava : because who knows what happens to your shares if you die ? maybe they get watered down . maybe the get redistributed among the family . either way , i do n't want to find out . my financial security depends upon your survival . franco : oh , well , hey , then pay off your mortgage and go buy yourself something sexy and italian and red , because i 'm not going anywhere . [ scene_break ] alexis : i want to tell you . i just -- i do n't know how to say it . nikolas : fine . fine . i 'll say it for you . you tell me if i get anything wrong , all right ? shawn 's not the man you wanted him to be . part of you knew it all along . you just turned a blind eye . now you ca n't deny it and do n't know if you can stay with him . [ scene_break ] shawn : look , i 'll get sonny up to speed and get things patched up . carly : i 'll go with you . shawn : no , no . bad -- bad idea , okay ? i 'll probably find sonny at the hospital with olivia , and it 'll be easier for me to talk to him if you 're not there . carly : [ chuckles ] shawn : i 'll -- i 'll fix it , carly , okay ? carly : you just tell him i want to talk to him . shawn : and i 'll make sure he 's ready to listen . carly : thank you . shawn : no . thanks to the other shooter . carly : yeah , the other person who wanted franco dead . shawn : hey . go home , okay ? give joss a kiss and do n't think about franco any more tonight , okay ?

[ chuckles ] i was a superstar . being with me -- had cachet . ava : people were lining up to exploit you . i was n't one of them . i saw something amazing in you -- something so dazzling i could n't see the darkness underneath . franco : you saw the darkness . you liked it . you still do . ava : what do you think kiki will think of your dark side ? how much are you willing to tell her , to show her ? franco : i 'll tell her the truth . you know , no one 's all bad . ava : well -- if you 're gon na convince kiki of that , you 're gon na need me to vouch for you . franco : how are you gon na do that ? you two are n't even speaking . ava : i love my daughter . and she loves me . we 'll get past whatever difficulties we 're having . franco : yeah , you hope . ava : if you think you can win kiki over on your own , fine . go for it . see how far you get working at cross purposes with her mother . franco : did you just refer to yourself in the third person ? ava : [ sighs ] or -- franco : you did , did n't you ? ava : we can work together . franco : [ laughs ] finally , the point . do n't get me wrong -- you were always terrific at the buildup . you were a great negotiator . ava : no negotiation . we either do this my way or not at all . franco : okay . what are we doing ? what is it we 're doing here ? ava : i have the perfect means of disarming kiki . you and i are getting back together . [ scene_break ] nikolas : leave shawn now . alexis : no . nikolas : yeah . make -- make a clean break . whatever good you see in him does n't change the reality of what he 's chosen to do . if you do n't end it now , you 're gon na end up just like sam . alexis : sam and i are in very different places in our lives . nikolas : [ chuckling ] no . not -- not really , alexis . she loved jason , accepted what he did , the risks that he took , including the fact that he killed people on sonny 's orders , as if that somehow absolves him of blame . alexis : well , not absolve . maybe mitigate the blame a little bit -- for jason and shawn . nikolas : even if shawn does n't end up dead like jason , he 's still a criminal and a killer by choice . that goes against everything you believe in . alexis : you know , it 's too bad that you did n't pursue a legal career , because that was a really persuasive argument . nikolas : look , shawn trades in violence , you know ? and violence ca n't be managed or contained . all you have to do is look at sonny . look at how his business has affected his children , right ? i mean , morgan 's the only one that 's come out relatively unscathed . you want to take that risk with molly ? alexis : no . no , of course , i do n't . nikolas : yeah . alexis : but , truly , who am i to judge ? i mean , i ran over kristina 's abuser and left him there to die . nikolas : alexis , you were driving your severely beaten daughter to the hospital . your car struck kiefer by accident . there was no intent there . it 's a far cry from being a paid killer . alexis : thank you for that . and i know . i know you 're right . nikolas : but -- alexis : but it does n't change the fact that i love the guy .

[ scene_break ] hope : [ sighs ] kayla : no answer ? hope : no . kayla : well , maybe belle is in class or in the library or something . hope : or with philip . kayla : come on . do n't go there . you gave belle the benefit of the doubt when you did n't tell shawn . hope : i did that for shawn . kayla : and because you believed that belle was n't gon na let this happen again . that 's what you said . hope : i ca n't believe that she slept with philip . she betrayed shawn . kayla : listen , we are pulled in different directions in our life . you know that . hope : i know . i know . kayla : well , things happen , and belle and philip have a history . hope : shawn and belle have a history , as well . kayla : she said she made a mistake and she regrets it . hope : which still leaves me with a big , fat secret , and i hate it . keeping secrets from bo and shawn -- it terrifies me . you know your brother . kayla : well , i think you have to have faith that belle is gon na come to her senses . hope : god , i hope you 're right . i hope she does and steers clear of philip . kayla : you know , maybe you should just relax , because -- you know what ? -- shawn is a match any day of the week for philip . hope : i do n't think he believes that right now . philip certainly throws money around -- and a lot of it . kayla : i think you have to trust that he can stand up for himself . hope : poor shawn . he never gets a break . kayla : well , that 's all gon na change now . look , he 's been accepted into the police academy . no . come on , now . come on . he is bo 's son . he 's roman 's nephew . there is no way he is not gon na be put back in the police department . once he 's a cop again , he and belle can get married . they can get their own house , have a little privacy , and -- who knows ? -- maybe another baby . hope : you sold me , and i hope you 're right . kayla : yeah , besides , there is no way that philip could keep shawn from being a cop . [ scene_break ] hope : hey . bo : hey . somebody did . that anonymous letter slamming shawn did its job . the board 's not letting him continue . bo : the board gave shawn the boot based on what was in that letter . hope : a letter that someone was too cowardly to sign their name to . bo : yeah , but the contents ca n't be denied . but shawn 's gon na get another shot at the beginning of the year if he does n't blow it first . kayla : how could he do that ? bo : by not taking responsibility for what was in that letter . see , he blames philip for all the bad things that are happening to him , including the letter . he was about to go after philip . i had to talk him down . kayla : well , um , hope will have to give you the same pep talk i gave her . i got to get to work . i 'll be in touch . bo : okay . later , sis . fancy face , our biggest problem here is that shawn thinks philip 's targeting him . hope : maybe he is . bo : what do you mean by that ? hope : i need to tell you something , but before i tell you , i need for you to promise me that you 're not gon na go off the handle . bo : this does not sound good . hope : it 's not good . just please promise me that we 're gon na talk it over before you go crazy . bo : how can i promise you anything if i do n't know what it is ? hope : then i ca n't tell you . bo : [ sighs ] okay . i promise . hope : belle slept with philip . bo : she what ? [ scene_break ] belle : philip , your ego is amazing . i do n't belong to you . philip : you belong with me . belle : no , i do n't . shawn is the man that i want to be with . philip : we made love . belle : because at that moment , i needed someone 's arms around me . i had just buried my father . philip : that 's what people in love do , belle . they comfort each other . they go to the person that makes them feel safe . whatever this is , it 's not friendship . shawn d. : hey , belle . [ scene_break ] bo : belle slept with philip ? it 's – i do n't believe this . hope : you mean you do n't want to believe it . neither did i . bo : how long have you known ? hope : not very long . bo : how long ? hope : maybe -- i do n't know -- barely 24 hours , maybe a little bit longer . brady , wait . bo : i told shawn not to go after philip even if he did write that damn letter , and now you tell me this ? hell , i 'll go after him myself . hope : bo , wait ! calm down . bo : shawn was right . philip 's doing everything he can to make him look pathetic . he 's got to know about this . hope : and then what ? what 's gon na happen ? huh ? shawn nearly took his head off when he found out philip was alone with her . how do you think he 's gon na react when he finds out he slept with her ? [ scene_break ] belle : hey , honey . how was your day ? how did your meeting with the commander go ? philip : i 'm out of here . shawn d. : what 's the rush , buddy ? do n't you want to stick around , hear how my meeting went ? this is my future we 're talking about here , except i do n't have one -- not with the academy , anyways -- because somebody wrote an anonymous letter saying that i do n't have what it takes . belle : oh , shawn . philip : tough break . shawn d. : so , why 'd you do it ? to get belle back ? philip : if i wanted to kill your chances at the academy , i would have written a big , fat check and told them to cut me a favor . i do n't do anonymous . shawn d. : do n't play me for a fool . i know you wrote that letter . philip : you do n't know jack about anything . belle : that 's it . you 're going . shawn , do n't . shawn d. : i tried to just let it go , but philip played dirty and not let me get goaded into going after him , but it 's obvious he 's not gon na stop unless i stop him myself . belle : would you stop it ? philip did n't write that letter . i did . [ scene_break ] lucas : i do n't know how to let you go . i ca n't . i do n't know how to do it .

[ sighs ] dante : so there was no gun at the scene ? ronnie : not so much as a water pistol . the only thing on that sidewalk was the man who was shot point - blank and left to bleed to death . dante : so you lied to me .

[ scene_break ] ronnie : come on . let 's go . dante : i just want a minute . why put me through that whole song and dance about wanting a truce with johnny for michael 's sake ? sonny : because it 's the truth . dante : nah , the truth is you shot at an unarmed man . sonny : johnny had a gun . he pointed it at me . i should be dead . dante : well , then why are n't you ? ronnie : well , have n't you heard ? sonny 's the fastest gun in the west . johnny got the drop on him , but quick draw corinthos , he ended up on top . sonny : do n't listen to -- you heard me call my lawyer , right ? i knew the cops were gon na come knockin ' at the door . why would i lie about the gun if the lie could be easily disproved ? i 'm not stupid , dante . ronnie : no . no , but you 're arrogant , okay ? because you thought you could shoot anybody you want and get away with it , just like you have a hundred times before . sonny : shut up ! i 'm telling you the truth , okay ? and you believe me , and you have every right to do that . ronnie : let 's go . dante : wait .

[ scene_break ] ethan : you know it 's no secret that sonny and johnny wanted each other dead . lucky : johnny usually carries a gun , right ? ethan : well , yeah . he 'd be a fool not to . i mean , he gets shot at on a daily basis now . you ca n't blame the man for wanting to shoot back . but he never makes a point of waving it around . lucky : well , they did n't find his gun at the scene . that 's why i 'm asking . ethan : well , i guess sonny caught johnny unarmed . lucky : you really think that sonny just walked up in broad daylight and shot him ? ethan : you think it 's beneath sonny to be that gutless to shoot an unarmed man ? recent history proves otherwise . lucky : you talkin ' about dante ? ethan : and yours truly . he put a gun in my face when he thought i beat kristina . okay ? and he would have pulled the trigger if dante had n't shown up . lucky : i know sonny 's capable of it . i just do n't think he 's that stupid or sloppy . look , this is the way this plays out , okay ? sonny tried to execute johnny on a public street where there could have been any number of witnesses . then he just walked away without any attempt to cover his tracks . ethan : why should he cover his tracks ? sonny 's been getting away with murder for god knows how long . why should this time be any different ? [ scene_break ] ronnie : justice delayed is justice denied . dante : well , you mirandized him , right ? ronnie : yeah , of course . dante : yeah , so anything he says 'll be used against him . sonny : and johnny was at the hospital ? he was still breathing when you found him ? ronnie : yeah , barely . sonny : you think if i wanted him dead , i would have walked away and not finished the job ? dante : oh , that 's got ta be a first . you 're actually using your efficiency as a killer as your defense ? sonny : i did n't want johnny dead . i wanted to make peace , dante . ronnie : give this man the nobel prize . sonny : you know how it is in this business , right ? if i want to get rid of somebody , all i got ta do is make them disappear . dante : like you did with claudia . sonny : after michael killed her in self - defense . dante : yeah , but you 're not a panicked teenager , and johnny did n't kidnap anybody or steal a baby . he was just walking down the street . sonny : dante , hear me out . you came at me with both feet , right , after claudia died 'cause of the cover - up . you said the best thing to do is to come forward and let the facts speak for themself . that 's what i 'm doing right now , and i hope justice works out this time . dante : i 'm done listening to your lies . ronnie : we 're done here . enough with this guy . sonny : i 'm tellin ' the truth , dante . i can count on you to believe it .

[ scene_break ] ethan : wait , maya . why are n't you in surgery ? is johnny -- maya : he 's still in the o.r . my job was just to get him prepped . he 's in good hands with dr. webber . ethan : okay , good . thank you . i know you did everything you could . maya : well , some of that credit goes to you . the only reason i was able to help johnny was because you helped me during my crisis of confidence .

[ scene_break ] ronnie : well , if that 's not premeditation , i do n't know what is . claire : and there 's plenty more where that came from . diane : your only problem is it 's inadmissible . claire : good luck with that argument , because i made that recording when i was with sonny at his invitation . he knows i 'm a federal prosecutor , and on numerous occasions -- and i quote -- he was willing to take the risk . so sonny 's own words will convince a judge and jury that he shot john zacchara with malice aforethought , which makes johnny 's shooting attempted murder .

( sobbing ) christopher : so , lizzie , anything you want to talk about ? how about what happened to your friend shayne ? that must have been devastating news for you . i know how important he is to you . you must be pretty upset . christopher : really ? well , i was under the impression that you had some pretty strong feelings for shayne , so if you 're worried about him or upset or concerned , that 'd be a good place for us to start . okay . i get it . not in the mood for talking today , huh ? well , that 's okay with me . we can sit here just as long as you like . i 've got all the time in the world . it 's a good tactic , you know , lizzie , the old silent treatment , let the therapist do all the talking , all the work . but you should know something : i 'm a really patient guy . i 've had all kinds of patients sitting across from me , people who are criers , people who are yellers . some of my patients go on and on about everything under the sun except what 's really bothering them . i 've treated them all , so you know , there 's really nothing you can come up with that has n't been tried before by somebody else . nothing . lizzie : do n't be so sure . because i 'm not like everyone else . you ca n't just throw me in one of your little handy nutcase files . you ca n't just throw me on your list of loonies that you 've treated . christopher : is that how you see yourself , lizzie ? as a nutcase ? a loony ? lizzie : i do n't know . you 're the professional . is that how you see me , dr . langham ? see , two can play with your `` answer a question with a question `` game , okay ? christopher : lizzie , understand this : there is nothing you can say that i have n't heard before , nothing you can do that has n't been done before . lizzie : really ? you think so ? what about that , doc ? lizzie : well ? christopher : yeah , i 've seen that , too , lizzie . lizzie : i hate you . do you know that ? because i really do . christopher : well , that 's all right . you can hate me , i do n't care . but it 's not going to stop me from being your doctor ; you should know that . no matter what you do to me -- you can bite me , kick me , yell at me -- i 'm not going anywhere . lizzie : you know , you really do n't get it , do you ? i do n't want to be in here with you , at all . i want to be out on a date , like my mom . i want to be with my friends . i want to go to the mall , maybe get my teeth done at the dentist 's , maybe get my eyes checked , anywhere but being here , bored to death with you ! christopher : really ? you do n't look bored . you look angry . lizzie : oh , shut up ! please ! christopher : all right , all right , i 'll shut up . just tell me one thing , lizzie : are you ever not angry ? is there ever anything that makes you happy ? lizzie : hating you . that really , really makes me happy . christopher : well , great . we 're making progress . we 've established that the only time that you 're happy is when you hate something . lizzie , do you think it 's possible that you do n't even know what it is to be happy ? maybe we can talk about that in our next session . lizzie : no . there wo n't be a next session . you 're fired ! beth : you know , call me crazy , but when you said `` dress up , `` i thought you meant ballet , an opera , something at towers . what was i thinking ? jeffrey : you know , i did think about all those things . as a matter of fact -- careful -- i was on my way to get tickets to a concert when i looked up at the sky and i realized what a magnificent evening this was going to be , and i could n't imagine spending it indoors . beth : ah . and did it ever occur to you what it might be like wearing four - inch heels on a dock ? jeffrey : well , you know , it never really occurs to me what it 's like to wear four - inch heels in any situation . well , except for that one time in college . beth : ( laughs ) jeffrey : but you know what ? i have just the solution . here . there we are . next . this must be what they mean by `` head over heels . `` phillip : hey . what 's up ? what 's the big mystery ? rick : hey . got some great news , buddy boy . phillip : what ? rick : old ricky still has it . phillip : still has ... rick : i 'm pregnant . i 'm pregnant . ( laughs ) phillip : congratulations ! rick , that 's great . rick : well , i 'm not pregnant , i 'm just overweight . my wife 's pregnant . phillip : oh , that is so ... i 'm so happy for you . rick : thank you . phillip : you deserve it . rick : well , my wife certainly deserves it , right ? phillip : hey . rick : what ? phillip : think about it : we 're going to have toddlers at the same time . you know what this means ? rick : two exhausted dads ? phillip : no ! this means our kids are going to grow up together ! it means we 're going to be a couple of middle - aged dads and we 're going to have company for all the things that we would n't want to do by ourselves . for the birthday parties and for the preschool traumas and for taking a walk in the park . this is so great ! rick , this is ... i 'm so happy for you . i am so happy for you . a baby is the best fresh start that you can possibly get , particularly -- particularly -- at our age . we 're finally grown up . we have some idea what we 're supposed to be doing now . we can make smarter choices than we 've made in the past . rick : whoa , whoa . phillip : we can ... rick : whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa . are you okay ? phillip : huh ? rick : you 're frantic , man . you 're crazy . you 're all over the place . phillip : am i okay ? rick : yes , are you okay ? phillip : well , i do n't know , rick , let me think about it for a second . no , i 'm not okay . i 'm having a baby with a woman that i 'm no longer involved with , despite the fact that she 's going to have this child at any second . she 's terrified of my teenage daughter because she thinks she has serious psychological problems and is threatening her , and you know what ? she 's probably right . she does . she 's ... she 's falling apart in front of my eyes , and she 's my daughter and i love her and i do n't know what to do . i 'm ... i 'm ... i 'm useless ! i 'm a complete failure and i have no idea what i did as a father wrong to make my daughter this way . no idea . but then again , there 's so much to choose from . rick : is there anything i can do ? is there anything i can do for you ? i mean , to help you ? phillip : i do n't think there 's anything that anybody can do to help , rick . oh , god . i 'm sorry , man . i do n't want to ruin this happy moment for you . i 'm sorry . rick : well , that 's okay . happy moments for me , they come and go . phillip : here . go , take that . take that . and give me this . go back to work , because i 'm fine . really , i 'm having ... i 'm fine . i 'm so happy for you . congratulations . ( dramatic music ) ( alarm bell ringing ) ( breathing heavily ) ( pounding on door ) phillip : can anybody hear me ? can anybody hear me ? lizzie : i do n't want to do this anymore , okay ? i 'm bored with it . your work is done here . thank you very much . christopher : sorry , it 's not that simple . you did n't hire me ; you do n't get to fire me . lizzie : oh , and i have nothing to say about it ? christopher : you have a lot to say about it , but i think you should say it to me . and like i said , i will wait here until you 're ready . i am in this for the long haul . lizzie : or else what ? you 're just going to send me off ? you 're going to ship me off to some funny farm ? christopher : do you think i 'm threatening you , lizzie ? lizzie : damn right , you 're threatening me . okay ? just because i wo n't keep seeing you , because i wo n't talk to you , you 're just going to send me away ? no . i 'm not crazy , okay ? i know what 's going on here . christopher : do you always think that people are threatening you when they do n't do exactly what you want ? lizzie : oh , do n't do that . that 's not going to work . christopher : do n't do what ? lizzie : try and twist my words and get into my head ! it 's not going to work . christopher : lizzie , nobody can get inside your head unless you 're willing to share that space . lizzie : well , let me tell you one thing : what i think and what i feel , that 's my business . and i will never , ever sit here like some kind of fruitcake and spill my guts to you . christopher : okay , let me tell you one thing : sometimes it feels good to let somebody else in and share that stuff . it makes us feel better to know that our feelings are not as bad or as weird as we think they are . lizzie : oh , it 's bad . christopher : it 's not . it maybe scary to you or embarrassing , but it 's not bad . lizzie : sorry , our time 's up . jeffrey : you know , i have to admit in all honesty and in all modesty , i have prepared quite a remarkable , extravagant feast here for you , and all of it is based on grandma irene 's secret recipes . beth : really ? i 'm touched that you went to so much trouble . jeffrey : here are the appetizers . beth : ( laughs ) jeffrey : and for the main course -- drum roll , please -- we have grandma 's famous and favorite tuna fish sandwiches . a real feast for kings -- or queens , as the case may be . beth : hm . prepared with your grandma 's secret recipe , huh ? jeffrey : that 's right . beth : which is ? jeffrey : which is a secret . i ca n't tell you . it 's a secret . beth : oh . ( scoffs ) jeffrey : okay , i 'll tell you . beth : i should write this down . jeffrey : grandma 's secret is mayonnaise . that 's right . she takes the can of tuna , she opens the can of tuna , she removes the contents and she chops it up very finely and then she mixes in the mayonnaise . beth : and then comes the secret part , right ? what is it ? anchovies , onions , celery ? jeffrey : no , no . it 's just mayonnaise . that 's the secret . beth : the secret ? jeffrey : yeah . beth : ( laughs ) that 's not a secret . ( laughs ) jeffrey : well , i 'll tell you what , maybe she put some ... she put some pickles just around the outside of the dish . no , actually , maybe she puts it inside of the sandwich . maybe that 's the secret . maybe i got it wrong . anyway , it is a feast for kings , or queens . beth : well , well , well . your grandmother taught you all that . she must have been something . jeffrey : yeah . she still is . she 's still alive -- alive and kicking -- and still driving a car , as a matter of fact , which i 'm not too happy about . but if you play your cards right , i 'm going to convince her to bake you some of her special famous secret cookies . yes . now , dig in . beth : okay . i 'll have a chip first , i think . so , here i am , sitting on a dock in a silk dress having tuna fish and chips for dinner . jeffrey : that 's right . and you 're having fun , too , right ? beth : yes , i am . jeffrey : yes , you are . see ? see what happens if you just let life come to you and just `` take it as it comes `` , as they saying goes ? beth : i have to tell you something . jeffrey : what ? beth : after our date , i was pretty sure you would n't call . we were having a wonderful time and then i went into that all- too - familiar guilty - mother routine , and i was pretty sure i turned you off for good . jeffrey : no , hardly . i just figured , you know , you needed some time . you needed some time and i have tremendous confidence in your potential to take life as it comes , beth . beth : hm . so that 's why you had me get all dressed up in a fancy dress , so that you could see how i would react when you shifted plans on me . jeffrey : no , i just wanted to see you get all dressed up in a fancy dress . because i was wondering what a challenge it would be to get you out of it . beth : and what about my totally special tuna sandwich ? jeffrey : oh , that . well , grandma assures me that it will keep . josh : shayne . there 's something i have to tell you . but first , i want to ... just want to tell you how much i love you . i want to tell you that i have loved you from the first moment i laid eyes on you . you were , like , this perfect gift to us . and every day of your life has been a blessing to me . you know you can look at all those pictures we 've been taking over the years , but they would never show what it was like for me inside , what i was feeling inside , watching you grow from a beautiful baby to a terrific boy and into the gentle and wonderful man that you 've become . i 'm proud to be your father . it 's been a joy to be your dad , son . when i think about all those times that you put your hand in mine and we 'd go for walks together . every single day of your life has been a joy and that 's an amazing thing , is n't it ? but i 've always felt love from you , shayne , and trust . i know you 've always trusted that i would protect you , but this time i did n't . i hurt you . i do n't think i 'll ever be able to forgive myself for that . shayne , i caused the accident . it was ... it was me . it was entirely my fault . no , it was . ( sobs ) see , first , i pushed you into going to that meeting , you know , and i would n't accept any reason for you not to be there , and then the guy showed up early and i sort of panicked . ( sobbing ) i thought you were n't going to make it , and all the while , i did n't know it , but you were on your way there because that 's who you are . but see , i ... ( sobbing ) ... i did n't trust you . and so i came after you . i was driving the car that hit you . and i would give anything , i would give everything if i could turn back the clock and change that decision that i made to go after you like that . i wish ... i wish it was me in this bed right now and not you , son . but i want to make you a promise . i will be with you every step of the way and we will make you whole again . i taught you how to walk once before , a long time ago , and i taught you how to talk , and i will spend every moment of my life teaching you those things again . i promise . i love you , son . i 'm sorry . i 'm so sorry . shayne : next , on `` guiding light . `` marah : i know you would never hurt me again , tony . i know that . tony : you do n't know anything , marah , because i already did something to hurt you . josh : maybe i should just move out of the house .

[ scene_break ] blair : well , i probably have more history with todd manning than anyone in this room . i have been married to him more than once , and we actually have two children . but our problems have always started because of his acts of rage and his acts of violence . and i have encouraged him over the years to seek help . psychiatric help . but he always refuses . although , i -- i never saw him turn his dark side on his children , until now . and now i know that he 's never going to change , and that 's why i felt i actually needed to say something . judge : thank you , mrs. manning . judge : you have anything to say , mr. manning ? todd : yes , i do . so when i found my only daughter -- who is a child , as you can plainly see -- being taken advantage of by cole thornhart , i did what i think any decent father would do . i went a little nuts . yeah , i 'll admit that . and i did go after him . but i just do n't know what else -- i mean , when you walk in a room and you discover that some sexual deviant is trying to rape your daughter , i do n't know what else you would do . and i do n't know if you 're a father or not , but i -- i ask you , what decent father would not go after his teenage daughter , if she has run away from home ? and after all that , my wife -- i come home , and my wife says , `` i 'm not going to allow you to see your children , starr and jack , anymore . `` so i did what , again , i think a good father does , and i -- and i took the one child on whom she has no claim . now , you know , i 'm guilty of a lot of things in my life , but , you know , i -- if i 've done anything wrong in this case , it 's not because i do n't care enough . it 's because , i think , i care too much . i just -- i beg you not to take my son from me . judge : ms. rios , i 'd like to speak with you and state 's counsel , and then i will make a ruling .

[ scene_break ] blair : well , i probably have more history with todd manning than anyone in this room . i have been married to him more than once , and we actually have two children . but our problems have always started because of his acts of rage and his acts of violence . and i have encouraged him over the years to seek help . psychiatric help . but he always refuses . although , i -- i never saw him turn his dark side on his children , until now . and now i know that he 's never going to change , and that 's why i felt i actually needed to say something . judge : thank you , mrs. manning . judge : you have anything to say , mr. manning ? todd : yes , i do . so when i found my only daughter -- who is a child , as you can plainly see -- being taken advantage of by cole thornhart , i did what i think any decent father would do . i went a little nuts . yeah , i 'll admit that . and i did go after him . but i just do n't know what else -- i mean , when you walk in a room and you discover that some sexual deviant is trying to rape your daughter , i do n't know what else you would do . and i do n't know if you 're a father or not , but i -- i ask you , what decent father would not go after his teenage daughter , if she has run away from home ? and after all that , my wife -- i come home , and my wife says , `` i 'm not going to allow you to see your children , starr and jack , anymore . `` so i did what , again , i think a good father does , and i -- and i took the one child on whom she has no claim . now , you know , i 'm guilty of a lot of things in my life , but , you know , i -- if i 've done anything wrong in this case , it 's not because i do n't care enough . it 's because , i think , i care too much . i just -- i beg you not to take my son from me . judge : ms. rios , i 'd like to speak with you and state 's counsel , and then i will make a ruling .

[ scene_break ] theresa : can you believe that ? judge reilly would n't take a bribe to push back my brothers ' court dates ? ethan : it can only mean one thing . julian 's blackmailing the guy , and given judge reilly 's past , there 's probably not enough money that you can offer him to make him change his mind . theresa : ethan , i 'm head of this empire , there has to be something that i can do . ethan : you know , you 're right . i mean , you 've got the whole crane machine at your disposal . we can -- we can fight this . we can fight this . we 're going to fight julian together . theresa : yes , together . together we can do anything . [ scene_break ] kay : i 'm not a fool , julian , ok ? with enough money and power , anything 's possible . i mean , look at ivy . look at what she did to my parents . and look at alistair , what he did to you and dr. russell and chad and whitney . julian : well , dear , you 're rationalizing , you 're making excuses for miguel because you still love him , but you know what you saw the night of your bridal shower -- the two of them making love . kay : how do you know it was them and not imposters ? you -- you were n't there . you -- you do n't know what simone and i saw . julian : well , i know enough to believe my own eyes . kay : what are you saying ? julian : i 'm saying that i saw miguel and charity kissing here at the hospital last night .

[ scene_break ] fancy : you want to be my partner ? sam : look , only if you 're comfortable with it . you know , i 'd be bending the rules here for reasons i 'd rather not get into right now . partnering you with luis could give him cover in case word gets out that he 's trying to prove his innocence . fancy : how so ? sam : first of all , you 're a crane , so the media would really watch what they report . secondly , luis is charged with raping you , and as a victim you 'd be the last person to let him off the hook unless luis ' evidence is genuine . luis : oh , there 's another reason , and it 's a big one . it 's a fact that i did n't attack you on that stakeout with burt . sam : luis is right . there 's someone else out there who violated you at least once . if you want to find out who this is , i advise you to partner up with luis . luis : thanks , sam . paloma : plus , when luis finds the first attacker , i bet he can prove whoever it is came back to the mansion to attack you . fancy : i guess . luis : fancy , your instincts were right the first time . i did n't have anything to do with either attack . now , please , help me clear my name , and miguel 's for hurting your brother . fancy : fox . luis : yeah . come on , fancy , let 's be a team . sam : well , fancy , you think you could do this ? you think you could be partners with luis ?

theresa and ethan moved closer to forming the family they 've always wanted to be , with kisses and smiles all around . theresa kept trying to tell him little ethan is really his son , but something kept interrupting every time . at the end of the show , it seemed she was finally going to get to say the words .... maybe . jared is bound to get theresa back , and tried to enlist the aid of chad and whitney , but whit made it clear her friend is with the man she 's loved for years and there 's no hope left for jared . he just does n't want to hear that , tho . in trying to explain why his quest is hopeless , whitney let it slip that both kids are ethan 's , but she quickly covered up her slip of the tongue .

[ scene_break ] paloma : did i miss something ? you defended luis , even after his dna matched your attacker 's , and you refused to press charges against him . it was your mother who forced chief bennett into arresting him and now you think he 's guilty ? fancy : it 's just that being attacked was so horrible , and i keep thinking about when we found luis in that ski mask . he said he does n't remember what happened that night . so what if he does n't remember attacking me ? paloma : my brother could n't remember something he did n't do . fancy : are you saying i attacked him ? paloma : what ? no , no . fancy : well , that 's what aunt sheridan thinks happened . paloma : excuse me ? fancy : she said she would n't be surprised if i forced luis to have sex with me . paloma : you ca n't be serious . fancy : aunt sheridan thinks i 'm bad for luis , and maybe she 's right . if i had n't gone undercover at that strip club to help him , we would n't have been forced to make that porno tape . luis almost lost his job over it and now he 's being charged with rape because of me . paloma : you are n't bad for luis ; he loves you . damn that bastard who did this . making you doubt yourself and luis . fancy : being attacked the way i was is tearing my life apart , and i do n't know how to put it back together . paloma : well , the first thing you have to do is believe that my brother could never violate you .

he 's going to propose . maya : well , if that 's true , then you do n't have anything to worry about , because it 's all about to come out tonight . i am the woman rick deserves , brooke . i love him . i support him . i am the woman you 've wanted for your son . brooke : [ sighs ] if you really believed that ... then you would tell him . you owe it to rick . you owe it to yourself . it would be the right thing to do . would n't it be better to have a proposal from a man who knew you and accepted you and loved you for all that you are ? please just tell him ... before he pulls out that ring ... before he asks you to be his wife . ridge : well , you got a trip to plan , do n't you ? hey , logan . did you hear about this ? brooke : what ? ridge : rick is planning a trip up to big bear to propose to maya , the new forrester matriarch . rick : mom supports maya and me . in fact , she 's happy that i finally have a woman that i can trust . ridge : are you happy , logan ? because if you 're not , this would be the time to say something . maya : thank you so much for being here , nick . nick : of course ! i was surprised to get your text . i have n't heard from you in ages . maya : i 'm terrible . i know . nick : you 've been busy . i 'm not offended . maya : well , i needed to call you . no one understands like you do . nick : what 's going on ? maya : when did you tell chris -- i mean , how far in to your relationship ? nick : third date , when it became clear we were taking things to the next level . your guy does n't know ? maya : not yet . nick : do n't you live together ? it 's okay . there 's no -- there 's no mandatory timeline . maya : okay . well , i 've given myself one . if he proposes , i want to tell him . nick : that 's a good idea . maya : his mother knows , and she 's pressuring me to tell him sooner . nick : that 's not for her to decide . maya : she just has me all confused , you know ? i - i think the proposal 's gon na come soon , like ... tonight . nick : wow . okay . are you ready for that ? maya : yeah . i want to spend the rest of my life with rick . nick : but you 're nervous . maya : i 'm terrified . wyatt : so , rick does n't even know about this secret ? nicole : no . but she 's telling him soon . wyatt : what , you think he 'll be angry about it ? nicole : it could seriously change things . i would n't be surprised if he leaves her over it . wyatt : wow ! that -- wow . that sounds like a big secret . nicole : it 's huge -- megahuge . nothing at forrester will be the same . wyatt : oh . that 's what i overheard . nicole : overheard ? wyatt : [ sighs ] the other day at the office , i , uh -- i overheard you and maya talking , and i thought it was about rick , and it 's none of my business , so i did n't say anything . i just backed away . but , obviously , i should n't have . i mean , this is about you and maya , and i can see how it 's affecting you , and i got to be honest -- i do n't want to back away again . i mean , if you need to tell someone , you can tell me , and i can see it 's weighing on you . i think -- i think maybe it 'll make you feel better to tell me . and i wo n't judge you for anything that maya has done because you two are two completely different women . nicole : mm . yes . [ chuckles ] we certainly are . wyatt : so , this is -- this is what you almost told me the other night on the jet , right ? nicole : yeah . wyatt : if you want me to say something , i can -- nicole : no , you ca n't . you ca n't say anything -- not to a soul , okay ? if word got out at forrester -- wyatt : hey , okay . no one at forrester will hear it from me . nicole : you know , maya and i were just talking about you finding out -- how it should n't make any difference to you , the kind of guy that you are . wyatt : well , i just -- i just hope that the only difference is that by telling me ... it gives you peace . that 's all i care about . nicole : her ... real name was myron . wyatt : what ? nicole : she 's my brother . or she was . maya 's transgender . ridge : so , are you really gon na let your son propose without knowing everything about maya 's past ? brooke : no . no . of course not . he needs to be told . but i 'm giving maya a chance to do that . i just spoke with her , and she 's going to tell him the truth -- before he proposes . and if she does n't , she 'll have to answer to me . maya : i knew this day would come , and i 'm actually relieved . i think rick knowing this final piece of me will be a good thing . i know it will . and i believe he 'll understand . nick : do you want me to be there when you tell him ? maya : i think we need to be alone when he proposes . [ chuckles ] nick : but is that a good idea , being alone ? maya : oh . i - i appreciate you worrying , but i 'll be fine . rick 's not like that . he would never hurt me . rick : hello , hello ! maya : hey , you ! rick : [ chuckles ] [ smooches ] maya : rick , i - i want you to meet nick . he 's the first person that i got to know when i moved to l.a . rick : well , it 's nice to meet you , nick . nick : likewise . i have to tell you , you 're a lucky guy . rick : do n't i know it ? so , i just have a few things to wrap up , and then we can go , if you 're ready . maya : i am more than ready . rick : maya and i -- we , uh [ chuckles ] we have big plans -- a night we 'll remember for the rest of our lives . nicole : you understand now why i 've been freaking out ? okay . you 're speechless . i should n't have told you . wyatt : no , no , no , no , no . no . i 'm just -- um ... thank you for trusting me with this . nicole : i 'm worried about how rick will react . will he walk away from her since he 's the c.e.o . of forrester creations ? wyatt : it 'll definitely make headlines . nicole : and at first , i thought that she should tell , that he had to know . wyatt : right . nicole : but the more i thought about it ... she 's so happy , living the dream . wyatt : mm - hmm . nicole : and it could all go away if rick finds out . and then there 's us . and i like where we 've been heading . does this change things for you , knowing about maya , knowing that she and i could get kicked out of forrester creations ? wyatt : no . i 'm shocked , but ... nicole : yeah , i can tell your head is spinning . wyatt : a little bit . no , more like a lot -- like the `` exorcist `` head - spin thing . nicole : [ chuckles ] oh , my god . i ca n't believe that you are able to make me laugh right now . wyatt : [ laughs ] [ cell phone chimes ] nicole : but do n't tell anyone , please . shoot . will you be mad if i bail ?

tina reappears to see sara and cristian . sara wants to believe and trust her mother . but cristian is very guarded and demands to know why she abandoned her daughter . dorian is ready to take over b.e . and make it cramer enterprises . she offers gigi a good paying job that will enable her to provide for her son , if gigi is willing to help her with something . but gigi washes her hands of dorian and is ready to look for another job . natalie asks clint , bo and nora if they might consider dropping the charges against jared if she can tell them whom asa 's rightful heir really is . clint says no way . but bo and nora consider that maybe it 's not cost effective to keep jared locked up when the person they should really go after is dorian . viki goes to see charlie and tells him she can never forgive or trust him again . but it sounds like she really wishes she could . david goes to see dorian and obviously has a trick up his sleeve .
<s>[INST] clint : i do n't think i heard you correctly . natalie : i said that i 'm offering a deal . let jared go for real . no strings , no charges , no revenge down the road . you just let him walk away , and i 'll tell you who grandpa 's other son is . clint : you know who my brother is ? and you kept it from me ? you kept it from the family ? natalie : that 's the deal . clint : i guess it was n't enough , that you knew about jared and how he was lying to the family , to the shareholders , to you . and how those lies would keep the buchanans from having their legacy . what 's the matter with you , natalie ? nash is dead . your sister no longer has a husband , and h children no longer he a father . and on top of all that , now you 're blackmailing me ? natalie : well , if grandpa were alive , he 'd be really proud of me . so that 's the deal , okay ? it 's a one - time offer , non - negotiable . take it or leave it . [ scene_break ] charlie : you okay ? viki : well , i 've been better . how are you ? charlie : they 're discharging me . viki : yes , i actually heard that . i assumed that since you were leaving , you know , going home , that you would be able to talk . charlie : do i need to sit down for this ? charlie : yeah , i guess so . viki : i did n't come here to lecture you , charlie . but i think we need to talk .

[ scene_break ] tj : hey . shawn : hey . tj : no comment on my getup ? i mean , it 's all for nothing , anyways . i just got a text saying the prom 's been canceled . shawn : what ? why ? tj : well , it was supposed to be at the metro court , and there was a shooting there last night . [ scene_break ] tracy : what the hell are you doing ? ! [ scene_break ] kiki : ahoy , captain . morgan : finally . why did n't you call me sooner ? kiki : like i said in my text messages , i could n't talk , and my crazy family insisted that i spend the night , and trust me , they have enough room . morgan : oh , swanky , huh ? kiki : yeah . and they 're falling all over themselves , because there 's some sort of civil war with their company , and both sides want my shares . morgan : well , i thought you were just gon na get the money from them , then book . kiki : that 's what i thought , and then i had a better idea .

[ scene_break ] franco : you must be alice . i 've heard a lot about you . i 'm franco -- franco quartermaine . [ door closes ] franco : perhaps you just do n't know who i am . alice : i know who you are . you 're an insane artist who 's also a serial killer . franco : none of that 's been proven . alice : oh , so , you 're innocent ? franco : i 'm not a serial killer . what i am is a quartermaine , and this is my family home , and i 'd like to come in and speak with my aunt tracy . alice : she 's out . franco : you do work for the quartermaines -- i 'm right about that ? alice : i do , and they told me not to let you in here . franco : wow . you are very strong . i am a quartermaine . you work for the quartermaines . ergo , you work for me . alice : i 'm still not letting you in here . franco : okay . you have a great resolve , and i appreciate that . perhaps my perspective bears further explanation . let me ask you something . have my aunt tracy or my lumbering brother aj explained to you that my controlling shares of elq make me vital to their future and , therefore , vital to your future ? alice : dr. q. owns this house . all those other people -- they just live here . franco : because they 're quartermaines , like me . let me tell you something . the quartermaines can not afford to ruffle my feathers . by extension , you can not afford to ruffle my feathers . you either let me in , or you can start looking through the `` want `` ads . [ scene_break ] michael : franco was at the house ? aj : hey , believe me , i wanted to throw him out on his psycho ass , but there 's nothing we can do about it . i mean , tracy and i -- we ca n't stand being in the same room with him , but , you know , look , we need his shares . michael : yeah , right . it 's , uh -- it 's business . aj : hey , listen , michael , franco is really important to elq 's future and so is his daughter . she , uh -- she came by the house yesterday , as well . michael : lauren ? aj : yeah . michael : after all this time we spent looking for her , she just knocks on the door ? aj : well , you know , her mother told her what was going on . she knows all about the stocks . she has n't decided whether or not she 's gon na support me or tracy . it 's a stalemate . michael : but what does it matter ? i mean , franco controls more shares than his daughter does . aj : well , it matters because he might decide he wants to vote with her . you know , and she might be able to be the person that wins over franco , and you may be the guy to win over lauren . michael : me ? aj : think about it . you 're about the same age . i mean , maybe you could talk to her and convince her that we 're the ones to back . she 's still at the house . why do n't you , uh , head over there ? maybe you can kind of make nice . michael : okay . uh , i 'll introduce myself to lauren . aj : uh , but she does n't go by `` lauren . `` michael : what does she go by ? [ scene_break ] morgan : seriously , kiki ? you want to move in with your rich relatives ? kiki : uh , yeah . have you seen this place , morgan ? no , you have n't , and you need to because they have a mudroom , which is -- i do n't even know what a mudroom is , but they have a butler 's pantry and servants and a -- and a boathouse , and they have closets that are bigger than my mom 's apartment in manhattan . and i 'm hoping that there 's a bowling alley around here somewhere . morgan : but what about our plan ? i mean , i thought we were gon na get a place together . kiki : you can come and live here with me . we can have our own room , our own suite , even , and it wo n't cost us a dime , which is good because we do n't have one . morgan : well , our luck will change . are you -- are you sure that your family 's okay with me moving in with them , though ? kiki : [ sighs ] yes , captain , i 'm sure . they need to stay on my good side , because they want my shares . i 'm telling you -- this is the perfect solution . there is no downside . [ sighs ] i think i spoke too soon . [ scene_break ] luke : what does it look like i 'm doing ? tracy : offhand , i 'd say you 're breaking two laws . you 're tampering with a crime scene , and you 're stealing your niece 's alcohol . luke : [ sighs ] my minibar did n't get restocked today , so i 'm just being proactive . what brings you here ? you hoping to see the bloodstains on the flagstone ? it 's out there , the crime scene , actually . tracy : no , luke , i 'm looking for you . i went to your hotel room . you were n't there , so i came to the nearest bar . luke : ah . tracy : i take it your phone is out of order . luke : no , my phone is working fine . tracy : really ? because you promised me that you would call me as soon as the test results were in . luke : no , actually , you demanded i call you , and then you hung up on me . tracy : well , either that lab is exceedingly slow , or you are avoiding me . [ scene_break ] tj : they say the shooting happened right outside the restaurant terrace . is n't that crazy ? shawn : yeah , that 's terrible . tj : police said the gunman must have been aiming towards this crazy artist named franco . ms. falconeri got in the way . she 's in pretty bad shape , i guess . they still have n't found the shooter yet .

[ scene_break ] shawn : i 'm sorry . i 'm a little distracted . i was at the hospital before with alexis . tj : is she okay ? shawn : yeah . but little danny 's sick . it could be , uh -- it could be serious . tj : what 's wrong with him ? shawn : i do n't know . they were still waiting for his test results the last time i spoke with alexis . tj : [ sighing ] aw , man . this has to be awful for sam and molly , 'cause i know she 's crazy about her little nephew . she must be so upset . i got to go see her .

[ scene_break ] tracy : so , what happened ? did the doctor call or not ? luke : no , the doctor did n't call . tracy : oh , i get it . we 're playing the semantic game . luke : i did not speak to the doctor , but his office called to say that the test results were back in . tracy : why are you hiding it from me ? is it bad ? luke , whatever it is , we will get through it together . what 's wrong with you ? luke : i do n't know .
