( clears throat ) it 's my new skill , driving people away , even my own son . nick : no , i 'd say you 've gone pro . sharon : okay , well , so much for human decency and understanding . nick : is that what you expected ? sharon : no . i expected to have to pay for my mistakes for all eternity . everyone else can get a break , but sharon has to pay and pay and pay until there 's nothing left . [ scene_break ] noah : look who 's ready to bolt . summer : pretend you 're dad and smuggle me out ? noah : he 'll be here soon enough . summer : what if he 's not ? what if it 's her ? noah : oh , you 're pissed at your mom , kid . that 's fine , but last night -- not the best way to handle it . summer : look , she cheated on dad . she flaunted her boy toy around at her own trial . that woman is disgusting . she is the reason why i got so mad and drove off . phyllis newman is the cause of all misery . noah : summer newman was the one who put the key in the ignition and drove off like a lunatic . summer : ( sighs ) [ scene_break ] adam : hey . chelsea : guess i overslept . adam : hey , you should have called me . i 'd have come up . how do you feel ? chelsea : i 'm a little sore , but it helps , actually . distracts me from the real ache . ( sighs ) i never even met the baby , but somehow , i already miss him . ( sighs ) adam : it 's okay . give it time . the pain will fade . chelsea : it sounds like you 're trying to convince yourself of that , too . adam : ( exhales slowly ) uh ... yeah , i got ta go right now . um , is there anything you want before i leave ? chelsea : now ? adam : yeah , it -- there 's some stuff i have to do . i did n't want to leave while you were asleep , so ... chelsea : you really do n't want to talk about any of this ? adam : talk , chelse ? talking about my feelings is n't exactly ... my strong suit . i do n't -- especially talking before noon about my feelings , so i just -- let 's do a rain check , okay ? we 'll talk later . chelsea : okay , later , but we do need to talk , adam . it was n't just my baby . we can help each other get through this . adam : we will , together . [ scene_break ] chloe : hey . you left before i got up . kevin : that 's the funny thing about coffee . people want it in the morning . chloe : no , really ? i did n't know that . you know what else i 'm clueless about ? whether or not we 're okay . kevin : what , because of yesterday ? chloe : because i ratted out your corpse - moving escapade to michael , a.k.a . the d.a . who grilled you on the witness stand . you know , some people may think that i 'm a crappy wife because of that , but i happen to think that i am loving and just trying to be supportive and scared and a fan of c.y.a . i mean , you 're the husband . what do you say ? kevin : i say , how can one person talk so much without taking a breath ? i say , yeah , we 're okay . chloe : ( chuckles ) kevin : it 's a brand - new day without me being in jail for moving a corpse , so i have wisely decided to obsess about how i 'm gon na get adam to sign off on some of my ideas at the meeting . that guy shoots me down every time i open my mouth , like i 'm supposed to just shut up and write code at his command . chloe : okay , you guys have made it work out so far . it 'll be great . kevin : yeah , it better be . we are in too deep for this to tank . [ scene_break ] jack : should have told me you were coming , junior . i would have had a spread ready for you . adam : i came for tasty information , jack , not arsenic - laced java . how soon are you making your move against newman ? [ scene_break ] victor : i understand . you let me know when you think abbott is making a move , all right ? nikki : nothing ? really ? ( sighs ) well , i 'm sorry , too . thank you . victoria : obviously , it 's just too much trouble for abby to turn on her phone . nikki : is n't she in chicago for `` restless style `` ? victoria : yes , but she 's usually addicted to her phone , and we need her right now . jack usually confides in her . victor : only when he needs her money . nikki : i just do n't understand why jack has n't made his move yet . victoria : well , maybe he does n't think he can pull off this takeover . victor : he was here last night , gloating that he had adam 's shares in his pot . what does billy say ? victoria : i 'm sorry , dad . jack 's not discussing it with him . nikki : so he 's shutting out his own brother ? victor : he 's a show boater . he 's planning all this . he wants the eyes on him -- all the eyes on him when he tries to take me down . nikki : well , every second he waits is good for us . we just have to figure out how to stop him . victor : yeah . [ scene_break ] genevieve : good morning , tucker . beating the s.e.c . agrees with you . i 'm glad you came out on top . tucker : are you sure you were n't waiting to hear the crunch of my bones after you threw me under the bus ? genevieve : ( laughs ) listen , uh , jack really wanted you out of the way , so , you know , i had to comply -- against my better judgment , of course . tucker : that 's a nasty habit , not admitting when you screwed up . you know , if enemies were hundreds , you 'd be flush , baby . genevieve : i 've never been one to try to win a popularity contest . one good friend is all i need . tucker : if you 'd played it straight with me , i 'd have been that guy . genevieve : i think we can still be friends . might just take a little more effort . tucker : good - bye , genevieve . cane : you do know he 's right . you never take responsibility for your actions . there 's always an excuse . it 's always someone else 's fault , which is why anyone who ever helps you will live to regret it . do you know that , mom ? [ scene_break ] sharon : oh , i 'm sorry , i 've just hit my limit on lectures from hypocrites today . nick : noah 's not going back to new york , and he wo n't tell me why . sharon : he 's not sharing any information with me , but something must have happened for him to want to be there than here . nick : maybe he just wants to be around his family . sharon : um , you 're talking about you , not me , because he obviously ca n't stand me right now . nick : look , i 'm not telling you anything you do n't already know . you 're not exactly the most popular woman in genoa city right now . sharon : i do n't really care if you and the rest of the bloodsucking newmans do n't like me , but noah is my son . nick : then be a mother to him . sharon : i 'll make you a deal -- i 'll worry about noah and faith , and you worry about your own daughter , who 's in the hospital right now . it 's a shame she inherited that hit - and - run gene from phyllis . nick : you know , sharon , i do n't even recognize who you are anymore . [ scene_break ] summer : remember when you offered to take me to new york ? let 's go . we could be roommates . how fun would that be ? noah : yeah , you would love the police stations and hospitals in new york . summer : okay , shut up . i just had a bad week , was all . look , i 'm totally ready for the big city . noah : ( chuckles ) i 'm not so sure the big city is ready for you . summer : ( sighs ) noah : besides , i 'm not going back . decided to stick around for awhile . summer : does that mean that i can have your place in new york ? noah : my place is a dirty couch in an east village walk - up that i shared with three other guys . summer : all i know is that i have to get out of this town . noah : well , too bad you 're not 18 . ca n't go anywhere without phyllis or dad . got ta figure out a way to deal , kid . summer : maybe there 's another way . nick : another way to what ? summer : to get out of here . i just -- can we go ? this place is really depressing . nick : yeah , i 've got a couple documents to sign here , but it 's not gon na be some big celebration . there are consequences for this . noah : ( singsong voice ) someone 's getting grounded . nick : hey , it 's not a joke , dude . summer : you sound so weird . i do n't even know what the big deal is . no one got hurt . nick : yeah , no one got hurt . [ scene_break ] chelsea : sorry , adam had to take care of something . kevin : and did n't bother to tell us . well , we 're just his business partners . chelsea : he 'll reschedule ... and explain . kevin : or he 'll just keep jerking us around , mention something about his money or his harvard m.b.a. you know what ? that guy does n't care about tagngrab because it was n't his idea . chelsea : hey ! we 're going through something big right now , okay ? kevin : oh , big ? what , like your husband 's ego ? i do n't know how that guy walks around under that thing . well , i mean , he is a newman , right ? chelsea : ( sniffles ) chloe : hey , are you okay ? chelsea : ( sobbing ) [ scene_break ] adam : it 's not a trick question , jack . when are you making your move against newman -- a move which my shares helped make possible ? jack : and here i took you at your word when you said you no longer wanted to talk about newman or your erstwhile family again . adam : give me an e.t.a . i want to have the popcorn ready when the big show goes down . jack : oh , then you 're just here for the fun . adam : i sold you my shares . i 'm team jack , and my brother and sisters -- that 's an entirely different story . so i hope you do n't get all misty - eyed and keep them on , because there is one single immutable truth -- they have never been , nor will they ever be team jack . jack : have a seat , adam . i think it 's time we catch up . [ scene_break ] nikki : this is exactly why your father has always refused to go public . victoria : ( sighs ) he had no choice , because nick and abby and i filed that lawsuit . nikki : honey , that is not true . this is n't your fault . the blame belongs completely to sharon and tucker for giving jack this opportunity , and it 's partly my fault . i think the minute i walked away from that marriage , jack went looking for some way to best victor again . victoria : jack has hated dad more than he 's ever loved anybody . this is all him , and you 're right . tucker probably went straight to jack right after he got cleared of those charges . nikki : yeah , but for what ? to play second fiddle to jack ? victoria : i do n't know . nikki : i do n't think so . there is something off about this whole thing . victoria : i do n't -- mom , i do n't know , okay ? i can usually see what 's coming . i - i - i do n't know what 's happening now . i - i ca n't tell . i mean , there has to be some way for us to stave off a hostile takeover . could we possibly lose newman enterprises ? victor : yes , we could . [ scene_break ] man : mr. ashby . cane : mm . thank you . `` half past bunny time , possums by the moon , tea and bread and honey , sleep time soon . `` this ends today . [ scene_break ] jack : my welcome mat is getting quite a workout today . i ca n't imagine what 's made me so popular . genevieve : ( laughs ) well , could it be that everyone knows that you 're making a move against newman , and we all want to join your cause ? jack : i think you might be on to something . genevieve : ( laughs ) yeah . i saw adam leaving . so were you able to get junior on board with this plan of yours ? jack : junior and i discussed a number of things . genevieve : oh , boy . i thought we were making some progress , jack . you know ? i really went out on a limb for you regarding tucker . jack : because you 're team jack , right ? genevieve : all the way . jack : today , right now . in the past , not so much . if you think for a moment we 're even close to getting this -- genevieve : i - i do n't think that . i think that we could be , if you would just give me the chance . [ scene_break ] sharon : hi . noah : i 'm gon na get out of your way . sharon : hey , did you find the red shirt ? noah : yeah , yeah , i did . thank you . good news is you do n't have to fold my clothes ever again . sharon : noah , that is not good news . i 've missed so much time with you , and that 's my fault , but every second that we spend arguing , that 's another second that we 're not gon na get back together . i love you and faith so much . you 're my whole world . why do n't you just put your bag back up in your room , and if you want to still go tomorrow -- noah : mom , look , we -- we 've been through all this . we -- we went over it yesterday . i just ...

( voice cracks ) but you and i are here . adam : yes . chelsea : ( sniffles ) adam : yes , we are . ( doorbell rings ) chelsea : ( sighs ) ( sniffling ) summer : hi . i mean -- yeah , i 'm so sorry . um , i was really stupid , and if you want to sue , which i totally get , sue my mom , because she got me all worked up , and i should have never gotten behind the wheel . adam : no , you should n't have . summer : um , yeah , well , if there 's any damage -- of course there 's damage . um , you know , we have insurance , so you could get it fixed , like it never happened . chelsea : like it never happened ? it was a baby , summer , a little boy , and now he 's gone because of you ! cane : now did she give you her name ? and she had long brown hair and glasses , right ? man : yes . cane : okay , and all she did was give you a 20 and this ? all right , did you see how she came in ? she came in through the lobby , through the gym ? man : from upstairs , i think . cane : upstairs ? so she would be staying here . all right . will you do me a favor ? will you get security for me , please ? man : yeah . cane : thank you .

rebecca : yes . yes , i did . she went down like a ton of bricks with no warning whatsoever . sam : and you 're certain there was no one else in the basement ? rebecca : not a soul . julian : but you did n't literally see eve harm liz in any way , did you ? rebecca : no . no , i did n't , but -- but your mistress , the normally cool , calm , and collected doctor , was certainly in a terrible rage . i mean , she was angry like i have never seen her before . julian : listen , eve did nothing to her sister . i 'd stake my life on it . rebecca 's voice : you may have to , pookie . chad : you know what ? you 're right . i was working late tonight -- with valerie . we decided to get some fresh air , take a walk so we could get our second wind back at the office . fox : `` second wind `` ? i 'm sorry , man , i 'm just trying to figure out why that sounds so lame to me . chad : well , you know , if you 're trying to say something , please , just spit it out . fox : well , actually , i was in the middle of saying something . whitney : you know , fox -- fox : it was nothing . you 're right . it was nothing . just wondering if it was working . did you get your second wind ? can you go back to the office and burn the midnight oil ? chad : well , it 's up to valerie . fox : oh , right , valerie is your assistant . whitney : you know what ? even though you gave me your jacket , fox , it 's still freezing . so why do n't we just leave , ok ? fox : yeah , all right . that 's a good idea . valerie : chad , whitney . chad : what 's wrong ? valerie : when i went back to the car to get my coat , i turned on the radio . your aunt liz was rushed to the hospital . whitney : what ? why ? valerie : they did n't say what happened . whitney : well , i got to get over there . fox : all right . mrs. wallace : you are a wicked , wicked girl ! beth : shh ! i ca n't hear . luis : ok , sheridan , i do n't blame you for being upset . but you 're not thinking straight . this woman , ok -- she is not your mother . sheridan : no , luis . i can feel it . it 's not in the words that she says , it 's something that i can feel in my heart . katherine : oh , there 's so much to explain . luis : she does n't even look like pictures i 've seen of katherine crane . pilar : she could 've had plastic surgery . rebecca thought she had . luis : lots of women have face - lifts , but it does n't mean that they 're somebody 's long - lost parent , ok ? pilar : it did with your father . that 's exactly what it meant . katherine : it is true , sheridan . i am your mother . luis : no , you aren't . you forget i ran your fingerprints through the crane database , and they would 've matched up if you were katherine crane . martin : not if the database was constructed after katherine had left . le not if alistair had tampered with it . luis : oh , come on . i even remember when katherine crane died . it was on tv . it was in all the newspapers . mrs. wallace : well , you bet your sweet patooties it was . i remember it like it was yesterday . the governor himself was there , and the president -- the president sent flowers ! luis : now do you believe me ? sheridan , this woman could be just about anyone , ok , but the one person she is n't is your mother . beth : oh , damn it . how much do you need to convince yourself , luis ? singer : you are my passion for life mrs . wallace : i could n't agree with you more , luis . the entire world -- entire world -- saw katherine crane put to rest . beth : they saw a memorial service on the 6 : 00 news . no one saw who was in the casket , and the funeral itself was private . besides , why would mrs . wheeler say she was katherine crane if she were n't ? luis : well , there are a lot of reasons , beth . now , for one , mrs . wheeler could be posing as alistair 's late wife in order to extort money from him -- or maybe julian or sheridan . i mean , really , who knows how a mind like that works ? katherine : i never cared about the money , luis . never . it was the crane fortune that made alistair become the monster he did . i ran away from it all . sheridan : even though it meant leaving me ? luis : do n't believe her , sheridan . it 's nothing but lies . beth : well , what bothers me is that mrs . crane supposedly died right after your father went missing ? is n't that right , luis ? pilar : that 's true . we heard about katherine 's death just days after martin disappeared . i was right when i confronted you earlier , was n't i ? you are katherine crane . with everything that you had , you just had to have more . you stole my husband . you stole my children 's father ! officer : would you care to make a statement ? ethan : as my wife 's attorney , i will speak for her , ok ? gwen : i do n't know what else i can say . i already told you that i stabbed theresa . she asked for it . i really actually should have done it years ago . it would 've saved me a lot of pain and suffering , and i might even still have my firstborn child , sarah . ethan : honey , honey , i 'm begging you , stop , ok ? you do n't know what you 're saying , ok ? gwen : of course i know what i 'm saying , ethan . i do n't have anything to hide . i did n't do anything wrong . theresa is the one who committed all the real crimes against you and me and the family that we would have by now . ethan : look , this is completely off the record , ok ? this is not an official statement . honey , i love you , and i am trying to protect you . honey , do you understand me ? julian : sam ? sam : the results of the test came back . liz had a toxic reaction . eve : toxic ? sam : that 's right . liz was poisoned . he asked me why i brush with sensodyne everyday ? off when ed is abducted on `` las vegas `` at 9 - danny and mike begin a frantic search for their missing boss while the ladies manage the other shenannigans at the hotel . at 10 - it 's zoey busiek wild card . zoey attends a fashion show and witnesses the kidnaping of a famous designer and there is no shortage of suspects . see you next time . t.c . : that proves it . eve tried to kill liz . who else would have access to poison but a doctor ? julian : oh , please , t.c . , you talk as if you were never even married to eve . she would n't try to kill anyone , even her worst enemy . t.c . : you know what , julian ? she blinded me with love , too . now it 's your turn . fox : somebody want to tell us what the hell is oing on here ? whitney : aunt liz was poisoned ? t.c . : yes . in the basement of the church . we were all waiting for luis and sheridan 's wedding to begin , and all of a sudden your mom and aunt liz went downstairs and they had a fight . eve : she just collapsed without warning , honey . whitney : but she 's still alive , right ? sam : barely . julian : you have to believe , whitney , your mother had nothing to do with this . t.c . : like there 's anybody else around here who hates liz . eve : whitney , i know you 're angry with me , but i know you know me better than that . i would never hurt your aunt liz . t.c . : yeah , just like you would never betray your husband and your daughters . sam : look , that 's enough . now , there was a punch bowl on the table near the two of you , right ? eve : yes . yes , there was . sam : did either of you drink from it ? eve : yes . liz took a sip of hers right before she collapsed . sam : ok , i 'm going to call the officer on duty at the church , have him gather up all the information and bring it in for testing . t.c . : there was a lot of people who drank from that punch bowl , and everybody 's fine . seems like the only poison was in liz 's glass . fox : what are you saying ? someone set out to kill just liz ? t.c . : that 's what it looks like . julian : thank god that there was no poison in your glass . sam : rebecca , are you certain there was no one else in the basement with you besides eve and liz ? rebecca : well , excluding me , not a soul . i 'm sorry , eve . i have to tell the truth . whitney : oh , my god . rebecca : well , and just because eve 's an adulteress does n't make her a murderer . julian : thank you for the help , rebecca . t.c . : do n't blame rebecca . the evidence speaks for itself , julian . doctor : chief bennett ? t.c . : come on , man , what is it ? tell me . is she -- sam : liz is holding her own . but we just got some new information . it seems that the poison liz drank is the same poison that was used to try to kill alistair crane . we may have an attempted serial killer on our hands . ethan : honey , listen -- listen , i am going to get you out of this . ok ? you 're not going to be here one minute longer than necessary , you hear me ? gwen : ethan , i 'm not afraid . officer : time to book the suspect . i need to speak to your wife -- excuse me -- client -- later . martin : listen , do n't blame katherine . now , i 'm the one who made the decision for us to leave . nobody forced me . pilar : callate . i admired you . i even felt sorry for you . me , the blindly naive wife who thought she had this wonderful marriage compared to yours with alistair 's . and all the time , you were sleeping with my husband behind my back ! katherine : no , pilar , it was n't that way at all . martin : never , i swear it . pilar : i was too busy with our children -- our five children -- too stupid . all those nights martin went out after dinner , i thought he had gone back to the office at crane industries , but he didn't . he was with you . katherine : no . pilar : oh , my god , i would call and call , and i would never get an answer . and you told me that you were on a business call . business call ! paloma : stop it , mama ! papa would never do the things you accuse him of ! papi , tell me it 's not true . tell me la senora wheeler is not this mrs . katherine crane . martin : yes , paloma , she is . that is who she is . beth : touchdown . luis : would you give me a break ! none of this makes any sense . ok , let 's say it were true and you were mrs . crane and you fell in love with my father . why would n't you just run off into the night ? i mean , really , why go to the trouble to fake your death ? martin : that 's what i 'm saying . we didn't . that was all alistair 's doing . we did n't know what he 'd done until after we 'd gone . katherine : we were going to settle somewhere . martin was going to contact pilar . i was going to try and find a way to contact sheridan and julian and tell them that i 'm still alive . martin : and when we realized that alistair had declared katherine dead , we knew right then that he would n't stand for anyone knowing that his wife had left him . luis : how convenient . so then no one knew that you were really alive . the people who loved you could just wonder and suffer , all for some sordid affair . katherine : no , it was n't like that , luis . i swear to you , pilar , martin and i were never involved , not like that , not until much later . he took me away because if he had n't , alistair was going to kill me . luis : oh , please . martin : no , it 's true , luis . katherine did n't want anyone to know who she was . there were times that i was at the house and i could hear alistair beating the hell out of her . he was cruel and violent , and , pilar , you knew that . luis : so you had to be the knight in shining armor . why not let the cops handle it ? martin : and do what ? what were they going to do against alistair crane ? come on , luis , you know better than that . the only way to get katherine saved was to take her far away . luis : so you left your family instead . why do n't you just admit that you two were lovers ? martin : but we weren't . we were just friends back then . we became closer much later . sheridan : i missed you so much . i cried for you every night , and all this time you were alive and well . why did n't you come back for me ? katherine : i became afraid for your safety , sheridan . later , i learned that al ttair tried to kill you and luis . i would have made it much worse and much more dangerous for you . sheridan : that was then . what about since mexico ? katherine : oh , i have -- i have wanted to tell you the truth so many times . i desperately wanted to take you in my arms and tell you how sorry i am , how much i apologize for all the years that we lost together . i couldn't . so i kept my distance , or at least i tried . i 'm so sorry , my darling . i 'm so sorry . i would have given anything to see you grow up . i ca n't ask for your forgiveness . i know that . but if i could ask that you just please -- please , my love , please try and understand . oh , my god ! oh ! fox : a serial killer in harmony , huh ? sam : looks that way . same m.o . , same poison . rebecca : oh , my goodness . this actually could work . well , i mean , i did poison the wrong person . but i could make them think that eve did it , and then she could go to jail for the rest of her life , or -- or worse . she could fry . julian : but what 's the motive ? i mean , everyone in harmony had a reason to see my father dead . but liz ? rebecca : well , i mean , liz only has one enemy , and that 's eve . oops . sorry . t.c . : you know , it all fits if you ask me . eve hated alistair for keeping her son away from her for all these years . and she also blamed him for whitney falling in love with her half brother . and we all know why she despises liz . because i just asked her to marry me . julian : well , so she was upset . that does n't make her guilty of anything . t.c . : what 's that saying ? `` fool me once , shame on you . fool me twice , shame on me . `` i do n't trust you anymore , eve . and i do n't think anybody else should , either .

chad : sorry ? valerie : it 's ok , i understand . i saw your face when she heard the news . you wanted to reach out and hold her , but you had to watch fox do it instead . chad : look , this is n't something we should be talking about . valerie : it 's ok , chad . when you 're really in love with someone , you ca n't put them behind you overnight . chad : this is n't -- it 's not like that . all right , whitney 's my sister , for crying out loud . valerie : whatever you say . chad : and yes , i care about her . i 'll always care about her . she 's a wonderful person . but that 's it , really . you know , i ca n't believe you would think anything else . let 's just -- let 's just go . valerie : sure . doctor : vitals , alice ?

i mean , you 're not saying that because you 're afraid that i actually did do it , are you ? julian : no , of course not . i know you if t.c . doesn't . you could never poison anyone . eve : i wish my family could believe that . and rebecca with the police -- did you hear her ?

is she all right ? doctor : the assailant 's scalpel grazed some nervesbetween her vertebravert we wo n't know the extent of the damage for a while . ivy : what does that mean ? will theresa live or will she die ? doctor : well , we 've stabilized her for the moment , ma'am , but there 's no way to answer your question . it 's just wait - and - see over the next 24 hours . gwen : theresa 's still alive ? ethan : yes , thank god . gwen : i thought i killed her . i want her dead . ethan : where are you taking her ? nurse : well , she 'll be in recovery for a while , but we 'll let you know if and when we move her to a room . ivy : gwen , do n't say anything else . gwen : she 's not supposed to be alive . she 's supposed to be dead . ethan : no , gwen . please . gwen : ethan , it 's the only way . it 's the only way we 're ever going to get our lives back . she does n't deserve to live . ugh ! i will kill you . ethan : gwen , gwen , come on ! stop it , stop it ! gwen : let go of me ! ethan : look , look , she does n't know what she was doing , ok ? i 'm sorry about that . officer : save it , buddy . we 're taking her now . ethan : well , i 'm coming with you , then . officer : suit yourself . ethan : listen , get ahold of rebecca and tell her what 's going on . ivy : good luck . ethan : yeah , i 'm going to need it . t.c . : sammy , how is she ? sam : they do n't know yet . they 're still trying to statoze her . t.c . : so help me , god , if she dies -- sam : in the meantime , i want to get a clear picture of what happened in the church basement . who was the last person to see liz standing ? eve : i was . as i told you before , we were arguing , and then she just collapsed . and i could see right away that she was having trouble breathing . t.c . : yeah , then you started to go work on her with a knife . sam : that 's enough . now , was anyone else with you in the church basement during this argument ? eve : i do n't think so . rebecca : not when i got there . you see , i was upstairs and i thought i heard a fight going on , so i went down there to see what was going on and -- my goodness . i mean , you never would 've be @ ie ht these two were flesh - and - blood sisters . sam : did you see liz collapse ? rebecca : yes . yes , i did . she went down like a ton of bricks with no warning whatsoever . sam : and you 're certain there was no one else in the basement ? rebecca : not a soul . julian : but you did n't literally see eve harm liz in any way , did you ? rebecca : no . no , i did n't , but -- but your mistress , the normally cool , calm , and collected doctor , was certainly in a terrible rage . i mean , she was angry like i have never seen her before . julian : listen , eve did nothing to her sister . i 'd stake my life on it . rebecca 's voice : you may have to , pookie . chad : you know what ? you 're right . i was working late tonight -- with valerie . we decided to get some fresh air , take a walk so we could get our second wind back at the office . fox : `` second wind `` ? i 'm sorry , man , i 'm just trying to figure out why that sounds so lame to me . chad : well , you know , if you 're trying to say something , please , just spit it out . fox : well , actually , i was in the middle of saying something . whitney : you know , fox -- fox : it was nothing . you 're right . it was nothing . just wondering if it was working . did you get your second wind ? can you go back to the office and burn the midnight oil ? chad : well , it 's up to valerie . fox : oh , right , valerie is your assistant . whitney : you know what ? even though you gave me your jacket , fox , it 's still freezing . so why do n't we just leave , ok ? fox : yeah , all right . that 's a good idea . valerie : chad , whitney . chad : what 's wrong ? valerie : when i went back to the car to get my coat , i turned on the radio . your aunt liz was rushed to the hospital . whitney : what ? why ? valerie : they did n't say what happened . whitney : well , i got to get over there . fox : all right . mrs. wallace : you are a wicked , wicked girl ! beth : shh ! i ca n't hear . luis : ok , sheridan , i do n't blame you for being upset . but you 're not thinking straight . this woman , ok -- she is not your mother . sheridan : no , luis . i can feel it . it 's not in the words that she says , it 's something that i can feel in my heart . katherine : oh , there 's so much to explain . luis : she does n't even look like pictures i 've seen of katherine crane . pilar : she could 've had plastic surgery . rebecca thought she had . luis : lots of women have face - lifts , but it does n't mean that they 're somebody 's long - lost parent , ok ? pilar : it did with your father . that 's exactly what it meant . katherine : it is true , sheridan . i am your mother . luis : no , you aren't . you forget i ran your fingerprints through the crane database , and they would 've matched up if you were katherine crane . martin : not if the database was constructed after katherine had left . le not if alistair had tampered with it . luis : oh , come on . i even remember when katherine crane died . it was on tv . it was in all the newspapers . mrs. wallace : well , you bet your sweet patooties it was . i remember it like it was yesterday . the governor himself was there , and the president -- the president sent flowers ! luis : now do you believe me ? sheridan , this woman could be just about anyone , ok , but the one person she is n't is your mother . beth : oh , damn it . how much do you need to convince yourself , luis ? singer : you are my passion for life mrs . wallace : i could n't agree with you more , luis . the entire world -- entire world -- saw katherine crane put to rest . beth : they saw a memorial service on the 6 : 00 news . no one saw who was in the casket , and the funeral itself was private . besides , why would mrs . wheeler say she was katherine crane if she were n't ? luis : well , there are a lot of reasons , beth . now , for one , mrs . wheeler could be posing as alistair 's late wife in order to extort money from him -- or maybe julian or sheridan . i mean , really , who knows how a mind like that works ? katherine : i never cared about the money , luis . never . it was the crane fortune that made alistair become the monster he did . i ran away from it all . sheridan : even though it meant leaving me ? luis : do n't believe her , sheridan . it 's nothing but lies . beth : well , what bothers me is that mrs . crane supposedly died right after your father went missing ? is n't that right , luis ? pilar : that 's true . we heard about katherine 's death just days after martin disappeared . i was right when i confronted you earlier , was n't i ? you are katherine crane . with everything that you had , you just had to have more . you stole my husband . you stole my children 's father ! officer : would you care to make a statement ? ethan : as my wife 's attorney , i will speak for her , ok ? gwen : i do n't know what else i can say . i already told you that i stabbed theresa . she asked for it . i really actually should have done it years ago . it would 've saved me a lot of pain and suffering , and i might even still have my firstborn child , sarah . ethan : honey , honey , i 'm begging you , stop , ok ? you do n't know what you 're saying , ok ? gwen : of course i know what i 'm saying , ethan . i do n't have anything to hide . i did n't do anything wrong . theresa is the one who committed all the real crimes against you and me and the family that we would have by now . ethan : look , this is completely off the record , ok ? this is not an official statement . honey , i love you , and i am trying to protect you . honey , do you understand me ? julian : sam ? sam : the results of the test came back . liz had a toxic reaction . eve : toxic ? sam : that 's right . liz was poisoned . he asked me why i brush with sensodyne everyday ? off when ed is abducted on `` las vegas `` at 9 - danny and mike begin a frantic search for their missing boss while the ladies manage the other shenannigans at the hotel . at 10 - it 's zoey busiek wild card . zoey attends a fashion show and witnesses the kidnaping of a famous designer and there is no shortage of suspects . see you next time . t.c . : that proves it . eve tried to kill liz . who else would have access to poison but a doctor ? julian : oh , please , t.c . , you talk as if you were never even married to eve . she would n't try to kill anyone , even her worst enemy . t.c . : you know what , julian ? she blinded me with love , too . now it 's your turn . fox : somebody want to tell us what the hell is oing on here ? whitney : aunt liz was poisoned ? t.c . : yes . in the basement of the church . we were all waiting for luis and sheridan 's wedding to begin , and all of a sudden your mom and aunt liz went downstairs and they had a fight . eve : she just collapsed without warning , honey . whitney : but she 's still alive , right ? sam : barely . julian : you have to believe , whitney , your mother had nothing to do with this . t.c . : like there 's anybody else around here who hates liz . eve : whitney , i know you 're angry with me , but i know you know me better than that . i would never hurt your aunt liz . t.c . : yeah , just like you would never betray your husband and your daughters . sam : look , that 's enough . now , there was a punch bowl on the table near the two of you , right ? eve : yes . yes , there was . sam : did either of you drink from it ? eve : yes . liz took a sip of hers right before she collapsed . sam : ok , i 'm going to call the officer on duty at the church , have him gather up all the information and bring it in for testing . t.c . : there was a lot of people who drank from that punch bowl , and everybody 's fine . seems like the only poison was in liz 's glass . fox : what are you saying ? someone set out to kill just liz ? t.c . : that 's what it looks like . julian : thank god that there was no poison in your glass . sam : rebecca , are you certain there was no one else in the basement with you besides eve and liz ? rebecca : well , excluding me , not a soul . i 'm sorry , eve . i have to tell the truth . whitney : oh , my god . rebecca : well , and just because eve 's an adulteress does n't make her a murderer . julian : thank you for the help , rebecca . t.c . : do n't blame rebecca . the evidence speaks for itself , julian . doctor : chief bennett ? t.c . : come on , man , what is it ? tell me . is she -- sam : liz is holding her own . but we just got some new information . it seems that the poison liz drank is the same poison that was used to try to kill alistair crane . we may have an attempted serial killer on our hands . ethan : honey , listen -- listen , i am going to get you out of this . ok ? you 're not going to be here one minute longer than necessary , you hear me ? gwen : ethan , i 'm not afraid . officer : time to book the suspect . i need to speak to your wife -- excuse me -- client -- later . martin : listen , do n't blame katherine . now , i 'm the one who made the decision for us to leave . nobody forced me . pilar : callate . i admired you . i even felt sorry for you . me , the blindly naive wife who thought she had this wonderful marriage compared to yours with alistair 's . and all the time , you were sleeping with my husband behind my back ! katherine : no , pilar , it was n't that way at all . martin : never , i swear it . pilar : i was too busy with our children -- our five children -- too stupid . all those nights martin went out after dinner , i thought he had gone back to the office at crane industries , but he didn't . he was with you . katherine : no . pilar : oh , my god , i would call and call , and i would never get an answer . and you told me that you were on a business call . business call ! paloma : stop it , mama ! papa would never do the things you accuse him of ! papi , tell me it 's not true . tell me la senora wheeler is not this mrs . katherine crane . martin : yes , paloma , she is . that is who she is . beth : touchdown . luis : would you give me a break ! none of this makes any sense . ok , let 's say it were true and you were mrs . crane and you fell in love with my father . why would n't you just run off into the night ? i mean , really , why go to the trouble to fake your death ? martin : that 's what i 'm saying . we didn't . that was all alistair 's doing . we did n't know what he 'd done until after we 'd gone . katherine : we were going to settle somewhere . martin was going to contact pilar . i was going to try and find a way to contact sheridan and julian and tell them that i 'm still alive . martin : and when we realized that alistair had declared katherine dead , we knew right then that he would n't stand for anyone knowing that his wife had left him . luis : how convenient . so then no one knew that you were really alive . the people who loved you could just wonder and suffer , all for some sordid affair . katherine : no , it was n't like that , luis . i swear to you , pilar , martin and i were never involved , not like that , not until much later . he took me away because if he had n't , alistair was going to kill me . luis : oh , please . martin : no , it 's true , luis . katherine did n't want anyone to know who she was . there were times that i was at the house and i could hear alistair beating the hell out of her . he was cruel and violent , and , pilar , you knew that . luis : so you had to be the knight in shining armor . why not let the cops handle it ? martin : and do what ? what were they going to do against alistair crane ? come on , luis , you know better than that . the only way to get katherine saved was to take her far away . luis : so you left your family instead . why do n't you just admit that you two were lovers ? martin : but we weren't . we were just friends back then . we became closer much later . sheridan : i missed you so much . i cried for you every night , and all this time you were alive and well . why did n't you come back for me ? katherine : i became afraid for your safety , sheridan . later , i learned that al ttair tried to kill you and luis . i would have made it much worse and much more dangerous for you . sheridan : that was then . what about since mexico ? katherine : oh , i have -- i have wanted to tell you the truth so many times . i desperately wanted to take you in my arms and tell you how sorry i am , how much i apologize for all the years that we lost together . i couldn't . so i kept my distance , or at least i tried . i 'm so sorry , my darling . i 'm so sorry . i would have given anything to see you grow up . i ca n't ask for your forgiveness . i know that . but if i could ask that you just please -- please , my love , please try and understand . oh , my god ! oh ! fox : a serial killer in harmony , huh ? sam : looks that way . same m.o . , same poison . rebecca : oh , my goodness . this actually could work . well , i mean , i did poison the wrong person . but i could make them think that eve did it , and then she could go to jail for the rest of her life , or -- or worse . she could fry . julian : but what 's the motive ? i mean , everyone in harmony had a reason to see my father dead . but liz ? rebecca : well , i mean , liz only has one enemy , and that 's eve . oops . sorry . t.c . : you know , it all fits if you ask me . eve hated alistair for keeping her son away from her for all these years . and she also blamed him for whitney falling in love with her half brother . and we all know why she despises liz . because i just asked her to marry me . julian : well , so she was upset . that does n't make her guilty of anything . t.c . : what 's that saying ? `` fool me once , shame on you . fool me twice , shame on me . `` i do n't trust you anymore , eve . and i do n't think anybody else should , either . [ phone rings ] rebecca : hello ? whoever it is , i 'm busy . ivy : no , no , no , rebecca , it 's me ! it 's ivy . rebecca : well , i 'll call you back . ivy : no , do n't you dare . look , gwen has been arrested and charged with the attempted murder of theresa right here in the hospital . rebecca : what ? ivy : yeah , she stabbed theresa in the back with a scalpel . rebecca : look , if this is your idea of a sick joke -- ivy : no , i am serious . they took her downtownto to the station house . ethan went with them , but i do n't know what he 's going to be able to do . rebecca : my god , i mean -- so , i hate theresa , too , but why now ? ivy : the d.n.a . test came back on the baby . rebecca : oh , no . please , do n't tell me . ivy : it 's theresa 's with ethan , not gwen 's . rebecca : oh , my god , my poor gwennie . just please tell me she succeeded . please tell me that theresa is dead . ivy : she 's hanging on by a thread , but , no , she 's still alive . rebecca : i got to go . i -- i 've got to go be with gwennie . the baby -- it 's -- it 's theresa 's . gwen stabbed theresa , and they took gwen off to jail . whitney : theresa ? oh , my god , i have to go to her . chad : you know , i should go , too . liz is my aunt just as much as she 's whitney 's . valerie : right . chad : you know , i 'll drop you off at home , ok ? valerie : you want to be there for whitney , do n't you ? chad : sorry ? valerie : it 's ok , i understand . i saw your face when she heard the news . you wanted to reach out and hold her , but you had to watch fox do it instead . chad : look , this is n't something we should be talking about . valerie : it 's ok , chad . when you 're really in love with someone , you ca n't put them behind you overnight . chad : this is n't -- it 's not like that . all right , whitney 's my sister , for crying out loud . valerie : whatever you say . chad : and yes , i care about her . i 'll always care about her . she 's a wonderful person . but that 's it , really . you know , i ca n't believe you would think anything else . let 's just -- let 's just go . valerie : sure . doctor : vitals , alice ?

please do n't die . ethan : i 'm going to get you out of here as soon as i can , i promise you . rebecca : gwen ! gwen ! oh , my god . gwennie -- gwennie , it 's all right , i 'm here for you . i am . ivy told me everything , and theresa deserved to die . ethan : oh , rebecca , come on ! rebecca : no , it is true . they are punishing the wrong person here . i mean , my baby is here ishind bars when she has n't done anything wrong . it is a complete and total travesty of justice . gwen : it 's ok , mother . rebecca : no , it is totally not ok ! gwen : no , but i 'm fine . i know i did the right thing . first theresa killed sarah , and then she killed the baby she was carrying for me , and then she killed my last chance of ever becoming a mother . and i could n't just let her have everything . rebecca : my god , theresa has won . my gwennie is behind bars and now theresa is -- she 's going to have everything . whitney : theresa , honey , please wake up . come on , you really need to wake up , ok ? because your children -- they need you . and i need you , too . fox : what 's the prognosis ? dr. adams : it 's too early to tell . she went into cardiac arrest in the o.r . whitney : no . dr. adams : they managed to stabilize her , but the next 24 hours will tell . whitney : honey , wake up . theresa , wake up . eve : julian , you do n't think that i did this , do you ? i mean , you 're not saying that because you 're afraid that i actually did do it , are you ? julian : no , of course not . i know you if t.c . doesn't . you could never poison anyone . eve : i wish my family could believe that . and rebecca with the police -- did you hear her ?

stephanie : no . thorne : well , he came by spectra to give me hell about trying to lure the jackie - m account . stephanie : did you do that ? thorne : felicia brought nick over to show him what we have to offer . in my book , that 's just good old - fashioned initiative , but dad saw it as another betrayal . stephanie : i 'm sorry . thorne : it 's okay . because it gave us a chance to talk , mother . talked like we 've -- we have n't talked like that since -- ever ? stephanie : did you make any headway ? thorne : i 've got him thinking about some things . but , of course , he thinks i 'm still going to fail . stephanie : well , i 'll have a talk with him about that . thorne : well , it 's going to take more than talking , mother . i have to show him that i have what it takes . and i know just the way to do that . stephanie : what have you got in mind ? thorne : well , it came to me in the middle of the night . and the more i thought about it , the more i realized that this is the ultimate solution . a duel . stephanie : a fashion duel ? thorne : forrester against spectra . a showdown on the runway , mother . it 's the only way that i can prove that i can go toe - to - toe with dad and ridge . stephanie : honey , that 's pretty audacious . thorne : yes . but anything less , they will always look at me as a guy who never measures up . stephanie : oh , honey , that 's not necessarily so . a few respectable seasons -- thorne : i 've been respectable my whole life . i have to do better than that . i am better than that . and i 'm going to prove that to ridge and dad . and mostly , i 'm going to prove it to myself . stephanie : well , it sounds to me as though we 're going to have some very intense times these next few months . thorne : months ? i 'm talking about right now . right now . the spring line preview . stephanie : have you lost your mind ? that 's the day after tomorrow . thorne : we 'll be ready . stephanie : thorne ? thorne : you do n't think i can do it ? stephanie : i 'll root for you 100 % . clarke : i do n't know about this . darla : well , thorne does and so do i . clarke : pitting ourselves against the forrester 's right now , that 's not middle of the night inspiration , that 's temporary insanity . sally : what 's going on with you , bucky ? yesterday , you were all for it . you said we were on the right track . clarke : yes , we are . but you go down that track too fast , you know what happens , you go off the road , you go into a ditch . you 're in the mud . your wheels are spinning . it 's getting all over your freshly washed dungarees . you 're pushing -- sally : all right , all right , all right , all right . please , quit extending your metaphors , will ya ? let 's get back to work . felicia : yes , and have a little faith , please . thank you . amber : maybe after he sees this , he will . with gowns like this behind us , we are gon na kick some major fashion butt . darla : yeah . ridge : that 's the best you can do ? no , i do n't want to compromise . keep looking . no one can seem to find the paux donge . but we have plenty of organza if we 're interested . brooke : i can see that my first order of business is going to be to reorganize some of these departments . we really miss thorne 's expertise . ridge : well , i miss him . i miss having my brother around . brooke : really ? ridge : yeah . it 's been a long time since we could do all the things we used to do . just going and getting a beer after work . catching a lakers game . brooke : you two were good friends . ridge : i 've got other friends , obviously , but no one that knows me like he does . all my secrets , going all the way back to preschool . just ca n't replace somebody like that in your life . brooke : well , have you told him that ? you should . ridge : we 're barely speaking . brooke : well , that 's part of the problem . [ intercom buzzes ] ridge : yeah ? that 's not funny , megan . really ? send him in . speaking of -- your ears must 've been burning . thorne : i can just imagine what you 've been saying about me . brooke : oh , you 'd be surprised . well , i 'm going to leave the two of you alone . unless you think you might need a referee . thorne : we 'll be fine . brooke : i hope so . ridge : so what 's up ? what are you doing here ? thorne : well , i was hoping to get you and dad in on this together , but he 's tied up and i did n't want to wait . ridge : what for ? thorne : to throw down the gauntlet . i have a challenge for you , ridge . one that i hope you 'll accept . if you 're not too afraid . ridge : our two companies going to head - to - head , huh ? thorne : just like the portofino challenge . except this time , i 'll be on the spectra side . ridge : with what ? you and your team have barely had time to sharpen your pencils . thorne : we have the designs . these people have been chomping at the bit to get back on the runway . ideas are flowing . ridge : oh , seriously , thorne , come on . it takes time to hone a team , you know , establish a brand , find out what works . and , of course , you 'd be going up against the masters . thorne : well , we 're ready to take that chance , ridge . ridge : you 'd be committing professional suicide . dragging our family name through the mud . no , not gon na happen . clarke : sophia , as always , you wear it well . sophia : thank you . clarke : take this work of art down to bob . thanks . sophia : okay . clarke : okay . all right , gang , it 's not that i believe we do n't have potential . we do . it just -- to go up to the plate for the first time and hit the ball out of the park ? darla : it 's been done before . sally : well , there 's no reason why spectra couture ca n't be next in line . felicia : i say we go for it . clarke : amber , come on , you 've got to know what preparation it takes to go up against ridge and eric and win . amber : our doing that is about as likely as stephanie asking me to move in with her . clarke : you see ? amber : but she did . sally : what ? felicia : really ? amber : i 'm telling you , folks . this is my week for miracles . i am on a roll . sally : oh , i do n't know . i 'm not too sure about that , honey . you know , it could that you have just been moved from the frying pan into the fire . stephanie : what are you doing here ? brooke : well , good morning to you , too . are we alone ? i understand you have a new houseguest , or should i say prisoner ? stephanie : well , i do n't have her shackled to the wall . she can come and go as she pleases . brooke : except where thomas is concerned . stephanie : i would think this would make you very happy . brooke : i want amber as far away from thomas as you do , but i 'm not sure this is the way to get it done . stephanie : why is it , if i say it 's white , you have to say it 's black ? brooke : do n't you think this tactic of yours is a little extreme ? stephanie : no , not after she scared the holy -- out us yesterday . brooke : what happened yesterday ? stephanie : oh , i see , ridge does n't tell you everything . brooke : amber slept with thomas . i mean , what could be worse than that ? stephanie : duh . brooke : oh , no . stephanie : oh , yes . now do you understand why i have her here ? why we 've got to keep her away from tom ? sally : amber , are you actually telling us that stephanie is suddenly hunky- dory with you and thomas playing hanky - panky ? amber : oh , no . no , she still wants us to break up . yeah . felicia : well , then i do n't understand . i mean , why would you move in there ? amber : because she has promised to keep an open mind . felicia : amber , look , i love my mother . and she really -- she has a lot of terrific qualities . but open - mindedness is definitely not one of them . amber : look , i know you guys have issues but stephanie and i , we have a very special relationship . i mean , clarke , you remember . i mean , when rick and i first broke up , she practically threw me out of the house . and then when we got back together , she hosted my wedding . this is so great , you guys . i mean , this is my chance to show stephanie that thomas and i are the real deal . and when we get her on our side , then everyone 's going to start to come around . we 're going to have ridge and brooke and eric and everyone . it 's going to be great . clarke : yes , yes , it 's going to be so beautiful . everybody 's going to gather around for one big group hug . keep dreaming , sweetheart , huh ? it 's cute . really . stephanie : thank god it was a false alarm . brooke : was there ever any doubt ? i thought that she could n't get pregnant . stephanie : well , actually , this is something else the doctor to us . she is quite capable of conceiving . brooke : she lied ? stephanie : no . no . you know amber , she never gets anything straight . when she lost the baby , the doctors told her that she probably could n't carry another child to full term . she thought that meant she could n't conceive . brooke : does n't mean she would n't try . stephanie : why would she do that , she 'd put her own life at risk ? of course , that 's a situation i would n't want either of them in . that 's another good reason why we 've got to find away to end this relationship . brooke : i 'm just not convinced that this is the way to get that done . stephanie : god forbid you 'd agree with me . brooke : i was on the other end of a similar plan , remember , `` operation break up brooke and ridge ? `` and we 're all aware of how that turned out . stephanie : all right , brooke , do you have a better idea ? brooke : no , i do n't . but maybe if we put our heads together . stephanie : why do i have a queasy feeling about this ? brooke : do you want to stop this romance or do n't you ? stephanie : the things i do for the people i love . i 'm a saint . brooke : so , that mean we 're going to work together on this ? stephanie : okay . thorne : well , it figures . ridge : what figures ? thorne : that you 'd back away from a fight . ridge : oh , give me a break . thorne : no , typical bully . always taking potshots , but when it comes to duking it out on an even playing field , you run the other way . ridge : an even playing field ? thorne , i 've got the advantage here . i 'm just trying to save your hide . thorne : well , i do n't want your protection . ridge : you may not want it , but you sure as hell need it . thorne : go ahead , ridge , keep beating me down and building yourself up . does that make you feel good ? does it make you feel tough ? ridge : now , now , there 's no need to get personal here . it 's all just about business . and the fact that you 're really not ready to run one . thorne : mm . well , prove it . accept my challenge . ridge : maybe i should , just to get you to come to your senses . why not ? you 're on . my company against yours . it 's a shame , too , you probably could have made a good go of it . selling your mediocre designs to cut - rate stores . probably could have made a good living for you and your merry band of misfits . but that would n't satisfy this towering inferiority complex of yours , now would it , thorne ? it 's become like an obsession . you got to go for the gold . duke it out with your big brother . well , go for it . have it your way . a fight to the finish . only , you know what ? you 're the one who 's gon na be finished . | brooke and ridge both feel the loss of thorne 's expertise at forrester . ridge told brooke that amber has moved in with stephanie . amber is adamant that she will convince stephanie that she and thomas are right for each other . brooke suggests that she and stephanie work together to break up amber and thomas . | <s>[INST] ridge : you see what i mean ?

thorne : well , it came to me in the middle of the night . and the more i thought about it , the more i realized that this is the ultimate solution . a duel . stephanie : a fashion duel ? thorne : forrester against spectra . a showdown on the runway , mother . it 's the only way that i can prove that i can go toe - to - toe with dad and ridge . stephanie : honey , that 's pretty audacious . thorne : yes . but anything less , they will always look at me as a guy who never measures up . stephanie : oh , honey , that 's not necessarily so . a few respectable seasons -- thorne : i 've been respectable my whole life . i have to do better than that . i am better than that . and i 'm going to prove that to ridge and dad . and mostly , i 'm going to prove it to myself . stephanie : well , it sounds to me as though we 're going to have some very intense times these next few months . thorne : months ? i 'm talking about right now . right now . the spring line preview . stephanie : have you lost your mind ? that 's the day after tomorrow . thorne : we 'll be ready . stephanie : thorne ? thorne : you do n't think i can do it ? stephanie : i 'll root for you 100 % . clarke : i do n't know about this . darla : well , thorne does and so do i . clarke : pitting ourselves against the forrester 's right now , that 's not middle of the night inspiration , that 's temporary insanity . sally : what 's going on with you , bucky ? yesterday , you were all for it . you said we were on the right track . clarke : yes , we are . but you go down that track too fast , you know what happens , you go off the road , you go into a ditch . you 're in the mud . your wheels are spinning . it 's getting all over your freshly washed dungarees . you 're pushing -- sally : all right , all right , all right , all right . please , quit extending your metaphors , will ya ? let 's get back to work . felicia : yes , and have a little faith , please . thank you . amber : maybe after he sees this , he will . with gowns like this behind us , we are gon na kick some major fashion butt . darla : yeah . ridge : that 's the best you can do ? no , i do n't want to compromise . keep looking . no one can seem to find the paux donge . but we have plenty of organza if we 're interested . brooke : i can see that my first order of business is going to be to reorganize some of these departments . we really miss thorne 's expertise . ridge : well , i miss him . i miss having my brother around . brooke : really ? ridge : yeah . it 's been a long time since we could do all the things we used to do . just going and getting a beer after work . catching a lakers game . brooke : you two were good friends . ridge : i 've got other friends , obviously , but no one that knows me like he does . all my secrets , going all the way back to preschool . just ca n't replace somebody like that in your life . brooke : well , have you told him that ? you should . ridge : we 're barely speaking . brooke : well , that 's part of the problem . [ intercom buzzes ] ridge : yeah ? that 's not funny , megan . really ? send him in . speaking of -- your ears must 've been burning . thorne : i can just imagine what you 've been saying about me . brooke : oh , you 'd be surprised . well , i 'm going to leave the two of you alone . unless you think you might need a referee . thorne : we 'll be fine . brooke : i hope so . ridge : so what 's up ? what are you doing here ? thorne : well , i was hoping to get you and dad in on this together , but he 's tied up and i did n't want to wait . ridge : what for ? thorne : to throw down the gauntlet . i have a challenge for you , ridge . one that i hope you 'll accept . if you 're not too afraid . ridge : our two companies going to head - to - head , huh ? thorne : just like the portofino challenge . except this time , i 'll be on the spectra side . ridge : with what ? you and your team have barely had time to sharpen your pencils . thorne : we have the designs . these people have been chomping at the bit to get back on the runway . ideas are flowing . ridge : oh , seriously , thorne , come on . it takes time to hone a team , you know , establish a brand , find out what works . and , of course , you 'd be going up against the masters . thorne : well , we 're ready to take that chance , ridge . ridge : you 'd be committing professional suicide . dragging our family name through the mud . no , not gon na happen . clarke : sophia , as always , you wear it well . sophia : thank you . clarke : take this work of art down to bob . thanks . sophia : okay . clarke : okay . all right , gang , it 's not that i believe we do n't have potential . we do . it just -- to go up to the plate for the first time and hit the ball out of the park ? darla : it 's been done before . sally : well , there 's no reason why spectra couture ca n't be next in line . felicia : i say we go for it . clarke : amber , come on , you 've got to know what preparation it takes to go up against ridge and eric and win . amber : our doing that is about as likely as stephanie asking me to move in with her . clarke : you see ? amber : but she did . sally : what ? felicia : really ? amber : i 'm telling you , folks . this is my week for miracles . i am on a roll . sally : oh , i do n't know . i 'm not too sure about that , honey . you know , it could that you have just been moved from the frying pan into the fire . stephanie : what are you doing here ? brooke : well , good morning to you , too . are we alone ? i understand you have a new houseguest , or should i say prisoner ? stephanie : well , i do n't have her shackled to the wall . she can come and go as she pleases . brooke : except where thomas is concerned . stephanie : i would think this would make you very happy . brooke : i want amber as far away from thomas as you do , but i 'm not sure this is the way to get it done . stephanie : why is it , if i say it 's white , you have to say it 's black ? brooke : do n't you think this tactic of yours is a little extreme ? stephanie : no , not after she scared the holy -- out us yesterday . brooke : what happened yesterday ? stephanie : oh , i see , ridge does n't tell you everything . brooke : amber slept with thomas . i mean , what could be worse than that ? stephanie : duh . brooke : oh , no . stephanie : oh , yes . now do you understand why i have her here ? why we 've got to keep her away from tom ? sally : amber , are you actually telling us that stephanie is suddenly hunky- dory with you and thomas playing hanky - panky ? amber : oh , no . no , she still wants us to break up . yeah . felicia : well , then i do n't understand . i mean , why would you move in there ? amber : because she has promised to keep an open mind . felicia : amber , look , i love my mother . and she really -- she has a lot of terrific qualities . but open - mindedness is definitely not one of them . amber : look , i know you guys have issues but stephanie and i , we have a very special relationship . i mean , clarke , you remember . i mean , when rick and i first broke up , she practically threw me out of the house . and then when we got back together , she hosted my wedding . this is so great , you guys . i mean , this is my chance to show stephanie that thomas and i are the real deal . and when we get her on our side , then everyone 's going to start to come around . we 're going to have ridge and brooke and eric and everyone . it 's going to be great . clarke : yes , yes , it 's going to be so beautiful . everybody 's going to gather around for one big group hug . keep dreaming , sweetheart , huh ? it 's cute . really . stephanie : thank god it was a false alarm . brooke : was there ever any doubt ? i thought that she could n't get pregnant . stephanie : well , actually , this is something else the doctor to us . she is quite capable of conceiving . brooke : she lied ? stephanie : no . no . you know amber , she never gets anything straight . when she lost the baby , the doctors told her that she probably could n't carry another child to full term . she thought that meant she could n't conceive . brooke : does n't mean she would n't try . stephanie : why would she do that , she 'd put her own life at risk ? of course , that 's a situation i would n't want either of them in . that 's another good reason why we 've got to find away to end this relationship . brooke : i 'm just not convinced that this is the way to get that done . stephanie : god forbid you 'd agree with me . brooke : i was on the other end of a similar plan , remember , `` operation break up brooke and ridge ? `` and we 're all aware of how that turned out . stephanie : all right , brooke , do you have a better idea ? brooke : no , i do n't . but maybe if we put our heads together . stephanie : why do i have a queasy feeling about this ? brooke : do you want to stop this romance or do n't you ? stephanie : the things i do for the people i love . i 'm a saint . brooke : so , that mean we 're going to work together on this ? stephanie : okay . thorne : well , it figures . ridge : what figures ? thorne : that you 'd back away from a fight . ridge : oh , give me a break . thorne : no , typical bully . always taking potshots , but when it comes to duking it out on an even playing field , you run the other way . ridge : an even playing field ? thorne , i 've got the advantage here . i 'm just trying to save your hide . thorne : well , i do n't want your protection . ridge : you may not want it , but you sure as hell need it . thorne : go ahead , ridge , keep beating me down and building yourself up . does that make you feel good ? does it make you feel tough ? ridge : now , now , there 's no need to get personal here . it 's all just about business . and the fact that you 're really not ready to run one . thorne : mm . well , prove it . accept my challenge . ridge : maybe i should , just to get you to come to your senses . why not ? you 're on . my company against yours . it 's a shame , too , you probably could have made a good go of it . selling your mediocre designs to cut - rate stores . probably could have made a good living for you and your merry band of misfits . but that would n't satisfy this towering inferiority complex of yours , now would it , thorne ? it 's become like an obsession . you got to go for the gold . duke it out with your big brother . well , go for it . have it your way . a fight to the finish . only , you know what ? you 're the one who 's gon na be finished .Summarize.[/INST]brooke and ridge both feel the loss of thorne 's expertise at forrester . ridge told brooke that amber has moved in with stephanie . amber is adamant that she will convince stephanie that she and thomas are right for each other . brooke suggests that she and stephanie work together to break up amber and thomas .</s> | 540 |
tripp : but i 'm starting to think he might never come around . at least not as long as his mother 's ghost is haunting us . jade : okay , stop . if you changed your mind , just say it . tripp : changed my mind ? jade : about me moving in . you clearly regret making the offer , and that 's why you 're being such a grump about helping me pack . tripp : i do n't regret making the offer , although i thought we finished moving most of your stuff . jade : i found more . tripp : okay . anyway , i 'm -- i 'm glad to have the company . and i told you before , i would never let you be homeless . jade : so you 're still cool with me moving in ? tripp : totally . and for the record , if i had changed my mind , i 'd tell you straight up . jade : good to know . so if it 's not about that , then what 's with the dark and brooding act ? tripp : i -- i ca n't stop thinking about what you said last night , how steve killed my mom to protect someone he loved . jade : did i say that ? tripp : yeah , right after you told me not to give him too much of a hard time about ending her life . so tell me , who was steve protecting ? kate : i 'm not taking it back . chad : excuse me ? kate : well , if you summoned me down here to scold me for pointing out that abigail is moving on , i 'm not taking it back . chad : no , i did n't . i actually summoned you because i just got off the phone with grigor . kate : does he have another artifact for us to sell on the black market ? chad : well , he called about one in particular , and it 's incredibly rare and can be extremely profitable for dimera enterprises . kate : okay , i 'm listening . chad : if we do snag it , it 's gon na really piss deimos off . jennifer : well , good morning . abigail : hi . hi . jennifer : hi ! hi . you look like a woman on a mission . abigail : oh , it 's my first day at my new job . jennifer : how you doing ? are you nervous ? abigail : yeah , hopeful and excited . i just -- i feel like today is really -- it 's the first day of my whole new life on my own . and it 's the first time in a long time i just feel really free . lani : [ chuckles ] same here . i 'll see you soon . bye . would you let commissioner raines know i need to speak with him ? thanks . jj : am i interrupting ? lani : no . just my dad checking in . jj : probably thinks like i do . you should have stayed in the hospital one more day . lani : jj , kayla said the tests showed i was fine . jj : but the fact that you woke up clothes torn and out of it from the drug that guy slipped you -- lani : did you speak with your friend , the one who works narcotics in chicago 's south side ? jj : yeah . i 'm waiting for his call back . lani : okay . well , i 'm sure he has his hands full with this whole halo epidemic taking over the city . jj : and now it 's spread to salem , thanks to creeps like snake , who 's probably using these missing women to either make it or push it . at the very least , we do know that he 's getting them hooked on it . lani : dolly never mentioned drugs . jj : have you talked to her since she met with him ? lani : i tried , but her phone 's been disconnected . so she 's either running scared or -- jj : or snake got to her , which is why i 'm relieved your cover has been blown . lani : we do n't know that for sure . jj : the fact that he has n't called you tells me he knows and he 's lying low . lani : maybe . jj : either way , i 'm a lot more comfortable knowing you wo n't have to deal with that creep again . [ cell phone ringing ] jj : my chicago connection . hey , scottie . what have you got for me ? [ knock at door ] raines : you wanted to see me ? lani : snake called . he wants to meet again , as soon as possible . joey : if tripp knew the truth , that i 'm the one who killed his mom ... steve : joe , joe , you got to stop that . joey : then you two would be bonding over hot dogs , beer , and baseball . steve : and you 'd be in prison . we 've been over this . joey : i 'm already in prison . do n't you get it ? this guilt , it does n't get better . it gets worse ... every day ! i think about what i did every day ! and i think about what it 's doing to you . your own son hates you . you 're being punished because of something that i did . steve : i understand how you feel . but you 've got to let me take that punishment . because what happened to ava is my fault . it 's my fault for letting her back into our lives again . joey : you did n't know how far she would go for revenge . steve : i did n't ? oh , yeah , i did . ha ! i knew she was out of her mind , and i let her back in anyway . i should have done something a long time ago to take care of that situation . you never should have been in that hospital room . if i had done something , you never would have met her . her death is on me . you get that ? joe ... it 's on me . listen to me . you got to let me take it . joey : i ca n't . steve : you got to . look at me . i 'm your dad . i can take it . please ... give it to me . joey : [ cries ] i 'll never forget how you stepped up for me , dad . steve : i know . i 'm just so thankful i was here to do it . who knows ? maybe someday your brother will give me a chance to be there for him too . huh ? lani : one more chance , that 's all i need . raines : are you sure snake does n't suspect you 're a cop ? lani : the fact that he called to meet again -- raines : could mean you 're walking into a trap . lani : true . i am missing a big chunk of what happened , thanks to that drug he slipped me . raines : he could have gone through your phone , your wallet . lani : i was undercover . i left nothing incriminating on me . but i might have said something while i was under the influence . there 's only one way to find out . i have to pursue this . there are too many lives at stake . raines : okay . but you need backup , and deveraux is your best bet . lani : no . i told you last night that there 's no way that jj will be on board with me going back to snake . raines : fine , then i 'll go . lani : wait , you 're gon na be my backup ? raines : so what , you do n't think i know how to do this anymore ? lani : no , i just -- raines : you need to wear a wire . that way , if something goes wrong , you wo n't be at the mercy of that animal . jennifer : okay , have a -- have a great first day . abigail : okay , yeah . well , good or bad , i 'm gon na call it a win for team abby , because i just -- i did it on my own . i went and i got a job and i got my own place and i did n't have any favors from my friends or my family and ... jennifer : i 'm really proud of you . abigail : thank you . thomas : [ laughs ] jennifer : [ laughs ] abigail : got to go , 'cause i got to drop him off at the day care and i just -- i do n't want to be -- ah , late , okay . jennifer : oh , listen , i do n't want to step on your independence at all , but maybe -- maybe i could just have thomas for the morning and get a little grandma time with him . abigail : do n't you need to be at `` the spectator `` ? jennifer : well , not until this afternoon . abigail : oh , well , i -- i did tell chad that i was gon na drop thomas off at the mansion on my lunch break . jennifer : okay , i can do that . abigail : okay . yeah , it would be really nice to get in early , as long as you 're sure . jennifer : i am positive . it -- it 's fine . abigail : okay . jennifer : you go . go . abigail : okay . okay , bye , sweetie . oh , i love you . be good for grandma , okay ? thomas : [ babbles ] abigail : all right . jennifer : okay , have a great day . abigail : okay . jennifer : i love you . abigail : bye . i love you . kate : you certainly seem to have rebounded from last night . chad : yeah , well , i 'm just happy to have something else to focus on . kate : well , i 'm happy that you 're open to our new lucrative source of revenue . i thought abigail might talk you out of it . chad : well , as my wife , she still has a say in the company , but in the end , i call the shots . kate : oh , that 's what i like to hear . chad : yeah . kate : so tell me about this artifact that we 're gon na grab from deimos . chad : okay , so it 's an ancient egyptian amulet that was discovered on the body of pharaoh ramses ii . now , it was believed to have been destroyed when ramses lost power , but deimos had grigor on the hunt for it . kate : ah , before grigor defected . chad : correct . and now deimos has hired somebody else , and grigor believes that they have recently found it . kate : uh - huh , so we 're gon na grab it from him before he delivers it to deimos . chad : yes , and it is worth $ 20 million . kate : i like that number . chad : who would n't ? kate : well , i do n't see any reason not to proceed . chad : there 's one . kate : what 's that ? chad : [ laughs ] it 's cursed . [ eerie music ] kate : [ laughs ] you ca n't be serious . chad : oh , i am . kate : well , i do n't believe in curses . i believe that you make your luck , good or bad . chad : indeed . however , this particular piece has a very interesting past . kate : give me an example . chad : the three englishmen who discovered it all met with very , very violent deaths . kate : ooh , unfortunate coincidence . chad : is it an unfortunate coincidence that several of the family members and distant relatives also met with a very tragic end ? kate : well , perhaps it 's a self - fulfilling prophecy once they found out about the curse . chad : perhaps . however , another descendant , after inexplicably losing his eyesight and attributing it to the curse , buried the amulet 50 years ago in england . kate : well , evidently , it 's been dug up , and we need to intercept it before deimos does . chad : so you 're not -- you 're not the least bit unnerved about the bad energy surrounding this thing , which -- which -- which , for the record , started when the original owners found it ? kate : you mean plagues of frogs and locusts , rivers turning to blood ? no , believe me , it 's gon na take a lot more than that to keep me from a good deal . chad : i 'm not surprised it does n't bother you , but brother andré 's a little bit more superstitious than us , so he might have something to say about it . kate : well , luckily for us , he 's climbing machu picchu , and i do n't think the chances of getting a wireless signal up there are very good , so ... chad : okay , then we move forward . why do n't we get our hands on this little gem ? kate : and turn around dimera fortunes . chad : that 's right . thomas : [ laughs ] jennifer : you 're looking so much like your daddy these days . maybe that 'll help your mama remember how happy she was with him . steve : well ... jennifer : oh , hey there . steve : this is a nice surprise . jennifer : hi ! steve : hi . jennifer : how are you ? hey , buddy , look . it 's your uncle steve . steve : oh . jennifer : say hi . steve : hey , little dude . what 's shakin ' ? you got a little bunny rabbit ? wow , he is so handsome . jennifer : so cute , right ? steve : all the girls are gon na be chasing after you , man . wow . jennifer : yeah , so i heard , uh ... heard you have a new son . thomas : [ laughs ] jennifer : how 's that going ? steve : well , not so good . jade : i 'm telling you , i 'm totally fine . besides , i 'm in the middle of moving . okay , fine . i 'll come in tomorrow . well , i have a full - on liver again . i just wish they would stop asking me to come in for more tests . tripp : maybe they want to see the whole picture . jade : okay , then take pictures , not blood . tripp : you know , i would n't mind getting the whole picture myself when it comes to who steve was protecting when he killed my mom . jade : i just meant he was protecting his family . from what i heard , ava had it out for all of the johnsons , which is why he did n't have a choice . tripp : but that -- that totally contradicts what he told me , that he was -- that he killed her because he was following isa orders . jade : yeah , well , there 's that too . he definitely had more than one reason to smother ava with a pillow . tripp : [ scoffs ] jade : sorry . i did n't mean to blurt it out like that . look , i know you 're trying to figure out this whole parent thing , but maybe you 're better off not knowing . tripp : why would you say that ? jade : because i know firsthand what it feels like to get the whole truth when it comes to parents . and god knows , i would have been better off not knowing . tripp : why ? why , what did you find out ? jade : basically that i was n't planned and they never wanted me . even after i gave my dad part of my liver , he was still ready to toss me aside like yesterday 's garbage . tripp : i 'm sorry . i did n't even realize . jade : all i 'm saying is , maybe you 're better off not knowing all the grisly details . tripp : i just think it 'd be easier to figure out how to feel if i , you know , knew a little more intel . jade : i think you 're asking for trouble . if you 're smart , you 'll stick to steve and kayla 's version of what happened and move on . tripp : i wish it was that easy . jade : well , it 's not like you can ask your mom for her side of the story . besides , the cops believe your dad 's take on what happened , so maybe you should too . tripp : maybe i should .

[ door opens ] abigail : hey . jj : hey . abigail : stan from the av department just dropped this off for you . jj : thank you . abigail : what 's that supposed to do ? jj : it 's a listening device on the same frequency raines just checked out before he left with lani . abigail : i do n't like this , jj . look , if this guy is as dangerous as you guys say he is , then lani 's not the only one that 's in harm 's way . jj : do n't worry about me . abigail : but it 's not like anyone even knows that you 're -- you 're tailing lani . if something happens to you , then what am i gon na do ? jj : i need to make sure lani is safe . besides , you know i 'm on it . so unless something goes wrong , keep that to yourself . abigail : just do n't go trying to be the hero , okay ? jj : it 's my job , sis . [ tense music ] jennifer : hey there . chad : hey . hi ! ping . chad : oh , how 's my boy ? jennifer : just be real quiet . chad : how are you ? jennifer : he 's great . he was perfect , as always . and we had a wonderful time together . chad : where 's -- where 's abby ? i thought she was bringing him . jennifer : she 's at work . chad : work ? jennifer : mm - hmm . first day at the salem pd . tripp : uh , who do i talk to about the details of a murder case ? abigail : oh , it might be me . i 'm not sure . sorry , it 's my first day . you know , what 's -- what 's -- what 's your name and what 's the name of the victim ? tripp : it 's my mother , ava vitali . abigail : wait , are you tripp ? tripp : do i know you ? abigail : oh , i 'm abigail , your cousin , sorry . my dad , jack , he -- he 's your dad , steve 's , brother . tripp : right , abigail . abigail : you know , i heard you were in town . i meant to introduce myself . tripp : yeah , it 's a small town . we would 've met sooner or later . abigail : yeah . well , i 'm glad we finally did . tripp : me too . abigail : so you 're looking for information about your mother 's death . you know what ? just -- will you give me a moment ? i 'll -- i 'll see what i can find out . okay . snake : good to see you , tonya . lani : [ chuckles ] you too . snake : you ready to go to work ? lani : i am . i need to make some money , and i 'm willing to take on as many clients as you 'll give me . snake : ooh , i like your enthusiasm . so will they . all right , girl , let 's get you started , hot stuff . what do you say ? lani : well , i say wait . you said on the phone you would answer my question when i saw you about the last time we met . snake : what about it ? lani : i mean , i woke up on the path outside the square . my clothes were torn . i had scratches and bruises all over my body . snake : now you 're as good as new . lani : but i do n't remember . i mean , last i knew , i was drinking champagne . so ... why did i black out ? [ tense music ] chad : yeah , i was -- i was -- i was really hoping to see abby . jennifer : well , she would have been here if i had n't jumped in , 'cause i just wanted to get some time with my grandson . chad : and i would never begrudge you that , but i got to admit i 'm having a serious problem with the way thomas is being shuttled back and forth right now . jennifer : no , i understand . i do n't like this situation as much as you . and for what it 's worth , i really believe that you and abigail are gon na work things out . chad : i appreciate that , but i 'm not sure there 's much more i can do to convince your daughter that i 'm committed to our marriage . jennifer : chad , please , just be patient . be patient with her . for some reason , she has this -- this need to exert her independence . but i really believe , in the long run , it 's gon na serve her well . chad : hmm , and what about , in this quest for independence , she falls in love with somebody else ? jennifer : like dario hernandez ? chad : yeah , so you know that he 's in love with her . jennifer : yes , she told me about that , but she looks at him as a friend . that 's it , nothing more . really , i believe the two of you are going to end up together . chad : hmm . jennifer : do n't give up on her . chad : i have n't . i have n't . jennifer : i know you 're hurt , and i do n't blame you . but if you just give her the space that she needs , i guarantee you she will come back . abigail : hey , not bad for a first day . tripp : oh , did you find something ? abigail : yeah , i found the case file on ava vitali 's death . tripp : perfect . abigail : so since this is public record , you 're welcome to look at it , especially because you 're a member of the family . but i went ahead and i made a copy for you to take home if you want . tripp : uh ... this -- this is strange . it says that my dad was arrested at the scene of the crime , which was the victim 's hospital bed . well , why -- why was my mom in the hospital ? abigail : well , i actually know the answer to that , but i do n't know if you 're really gon na want to hear it . tripp : it ca n't be worse than what i 've already heard . abigail : my aunt kayla found her at home with a syringe in her arm , and apparently , she was trying to kill herself and she was planning to frame my aunt for the murder . tripp : how -- how did she get to the hospital ? abigail : kayla brought her in . tripp : so your aunt kayla ended up saving my mom 's life ? abigail : yeah . when your mom regained consciousness , she accused my aunt kayla of trying to kill her . tripp : and -- and you 're sure that kayla 's telling the truth . abigail : what reason would she have to lie ? jade : finally . joey : i thought you were moving out this morning . jade : yeah , i just wanted to give you back your key . joey : oh , thanks . jade : sorry it 's taking me so long to get out of here . i had more stuff than i realized . joey : looks like you 're leaving with more than you came with . is n't that claire 's shirt ? jade : she wo n't miss it . and if she does , she knows where to find me . joey : i 'm sure you 'll be hearing from her . jade : do n't be such a boy scout , especially not after i left you the last box of thin mint cookies . top shelf in the back of the coat closet . it 'll be our little secret . joey : jade , i still do n't know if moving in with tripp is a good idea . jade : oh , come on , are you still freaking that i 'm gon na tell him you offed his mom ? joey : would you keep it down ? jade : sorry , it 's just , i mean , i told you i would n't tell him , and i wo n't . joey : okay , fine . jade : even if i did have a little slip earlier , i do n't think tripp suspected anything . joey : you what ? snake : does n't really matter what happened last time we met . you 're here now . you look great . lani : [ chuckles ] i just -- i 'd like to remember , that 's all . i mean , or to at least know why i do n't . snake : well , it must have been the champagne . i mean , you said yourself you 're a lightweight , remember ? you remember that ? lani : i do . but , baby , i only had a few sips . i mean , come on . i wo n't be mad . did you spike it ? snake : you were nervous . i gave you a little something to take the edge off . jj : that 's it , lani . that 's all you need . now go . raines : okay , no , no . we got what we need . now get out of there . snake : and they get a cash bonus if they can get their clients to partake . lani : so what exactly is it ? i 'm -- snake : [ shushing ] lani : candy ? snake : the best kind . the best kind . it 's called halo . there you go . now that you 've had a taste , you 're gon na -- you 're gon na keep coming back for more . so there you go . lani : i have no problem offering it to my clients , but ... i think i 'll keep my wits about me . snake : you 're gon na be missing a great high . lani : [ chuckles ] well , i would n't know since i passed out before i could feel anything . besides , as far as i can see , it makes you forget what you 're doing and where you 've been . snake : yeah . well , some things are better off forgotten , are n't they ? lani : hmm . well , i 'm a girl who likes to make memories . snake : [ sighs ] [ laughs ] you 're not reading me , baby . lani : oh ? snake : it was n't a request . you 're gon na take it whether you want to or not . joey : why are you talking to tripp about this ? how did you slip ? what did you say ? jade : i just said that your dad only killed ava to protect someone he loved . joey : what ? jade : well , it 's partly true . joey : my dad told tripp that he was following orders from the isa . jade : yeah , well , i forgot that part . joey : this is bad . jade : stop panicking . joey : if tripp 's still asking questions , that means that he 's not accepting the official version of what happened . jade : okay , well , even if he does n't accept it , the only people who know the truth love you too much to rat you out . well , i do , anyway . besides , now that i 'm living with tripp , i can make sure he stays in the dark . joey : yeah , if you do n't slip again . jade : okay , stop stressing . i promise , everything 's gon na be fine . [ dramatic music ] [ soft music ] [ knocking ] abigail : is this a bad time ? chad : uh , no . abigail : i just -- i forgot to give my mom mr. bailey . so i thought i 'd run him over on my lunch break . chad : right . um ... how was your first day at the station ? abigail : busy , yeah . in fact , i should probably go . so i 'll just -- i 'll run this upstairs really -- chad : no , i got -- you know , i -- i wanted to apologize about my behavior yesterday . abigail : oh . chad : last night . i 'm -- i 'm -- i 'm sorry . abigail : it 's okay . it 's over , so just forget it . chad : and ... we have to ... figure out a better way to communicate . you know , 'cause whatever this is we 're doing , we need to make something work out for thomas . abigail : yeah . yeah , you 're right , we -- we do . i want to do what 's best for him , for thomas . lani : hold on , okay ? we do n't -- we do n't have to rush anything yet . now , if i 'm gon na be working for you , i really want to get to know you better . so you say all the girls take halo . snake : yeah , you do n't want to be left out , do you ? lani : no . snake : big -- big bread . lani : well , maybe i can meet some of the girls and they can tell me what i 'm missing . [ tense music ] snake : you talk too much . you do n't remember , but ... jj : damn it . snake : you got really quiet ... raines : come on , i told you to get out ! i told you to get out ! snake : when you were on the drug . and i like you better that way . lani : [ grunting ] snake : you ... bitch ! huh ? what is this ? are you a cop ? aleve with direct therapy- steve : so that 's a double mocha latte ? okay . anything else ? do for my beautiful wife ? you know i 'd do anything for you , baby . okay . i love you too . [ suspenseful music ] chad : you 're -- you 're -- you 're right , we need to focus on thomas , but i want -- i want you to know that i am not gon na forget about us and i know -- abigail : chad , i really do n't think -- chad : listen to me , please . i know that you need to figure things out by yourself right now or for yourself . and i fought it at first , but i want you to know that i support you , whatever you need . if you need space and time , i will give it to you . but you have to remember one thing . abigail : what ? chad : i love you with all my heart . there is only you . there will only ever be you . you 're my wife , my best friend , and my partner , and i -- and i hope someday you believe that again . and when you do , i will be right here . and i hope that you give me a chance to make you happy again someday . raines : i need backup at the salem inn now ! hurry up ! jj : damn it , lani ! why could n't you let this go ? snake : ha . lani : let me explain . snake : explain what , that you 're a cop ? lani : no one knows i 'm here . okay , if you 'll just ... snake : shut up ! lani : put the gun down . snake : shut up ! you know what time it is ? it 's time -- it 's time to up the dosage . that 's what time it is . pick it up ! pick it up ! pick it up , man . this is not fun and games with you . do n't get defiant either . last time , you had one . now you 're gon na have three . take 'em . lani : i 'll overdose . snake : that 's the plan . | lani talked to raines about staying on the case to get snake . chad and kate talked about the business deal to get back at deimos . joey told steve that he still thought about killing ava . steve wanted joey to let him take the fall for killing her . tripp wanted to know what jade meant when she said steve killed ava to protect someone he loved . chad told kate that the amulet was cursed , but kate was n't worried . tripp confronted jade about what she said about steve killing ava , but she said he was better off not knowing . jj told abby that lani was still after snake . he said he was tracking her phone so he knew what she was doing . | <s>[INST] tripp : but i 'm starting to think he might never come around . at least not as long as his mother 's ghost is haunting us . jade : okay , stop . if you changed your mind , just say it . tripp : changed my mind ? jade : about me moving in . you clearly regret making the offer , and that 's why you 're being such a grump about helping me pack . tripp : i do n't regret making the offer , although i thought we finished moving most of your stuff . jade : i found more . tripp : okay . anyway , i 'm -- i 'm glad to have the company . and i told you before , i would never let you be homeless . jade : so you 're still cool with me moving in ? tripp : totally . and for the record , if i had changed my mind , i 'd tell you straight up . jade : good to know . so if it 's not about that , then what 's with the dark and brooding act ? tripp : i -- i ca n't stop thinking about what you said last night , how steve killed my mom to protect someone he loved . jade : did i say that ? tripp : yeah , right after you told me not to give him too much of a hard time about ending her life . so tell me , who was steve protecting ? kate : i 'm not taking it back . chad : excuse me ? kate : well , if you summoned me down here to scold me for pointing out that abigail is moving on , i 'm not taking it back . chad : no , i did n't . i actually summoned you because i just got off the phone with grigor . kate : does he have another artifact for us to sell on the black market ? chad : well , he called about one in particular , and it 's incredibly rare and can be extremely profitable for dimera enterprises . kate : okay , i 'm listening . chad : if we do snag it , it 's gon na really piss deimos off . jennifer : well , good morning . abigail : hi . hi . jennifer : hi ! hi . you look like a woman on a mission . abigail : oh , it 's my first day at my new job . jennifer : how you doing ? are you nervous ? abigail : yeah , hopeful and excited . i just -- i feel like today is really -- it 's the first day of my whole new life on my own . and it 's the first time in a long time i just feel really free . lani : [ chuckles ] same here . i 'll see you soon . bye . would you let commissioner raines know i need to speak with him ? thanks . jj : am i interrupting ? lani : no . just my dad checking in . jj : probably thinks like i do . you should have stayed in the hospital one more day . lani : jj , kayla said the tests showed i was fine . jj : but the fact that you woke up clothes torn and out of it from the drug that guy slipped you -- lani : did you speak with your friend , the one who works narcotics in chicago 's south side ? jj : yeah . i 'm waiting for his call back . lani : okay . well , i 'm sure he has his hands full with this whole halo epidemic taking over the city . jj : and now it 's spread to salem , thanks to creeps like snake , who 's probably using these missing women to either make it or push it . at the very least , we do know that he 's getting them hooked on it . lani : dolly never mentioned drugs . jj : have you talked to her since she met with him ? lani : i tried , but her phone 's been disconnected . so she 's either running scared or -- jj : or snake got to her , which is why i 'm relieved your cover has been blown . lani : we do n't know that for sure . jj : the fact that he has n't called you tells me he knows and he 's lying low . lani : maybe . jj : either way , i 'm a lot more comfortable knowing you wo n't have to deal with that creep again . [ cell phone ringing ] jj : my chicago connection . hey , scottie . what have you got for me ? [ knock at door ] raines : you wanted to see me ? lani : snake called . he wants to meet again , as soon as possible . joey : if tripp knew the truth , that i 'm the one who killed his mom ... steve : joe , joe , you got to stop that . joey : then you two would be bonding over hot dogs , beer , and baseball . steve : and you 'd be in prison . we 've been over this . joey : i 'm already in prison . do n't you get it ? this guilt , it does n't get better . it gets worse ... every day ! i think about what i did every day ! and i think about what it 's doing to you . your own son hates you . you 're being punished because of something that i did . steve : i understand how you feel . but you 've got to let me take that punishment . because what happened to ava is my fault . it 's my fault for letting her back into our lives again . joey : you did n't know how far she would go for revenge . steve : i did n't ? oh , yeah , i did . ha ! i knew she was out of her mind , and i let her back in anyway . i should have done something a long time ago to take care of that situation . you never should have been in that hospital room . if i had done something , you never would have met her . her death is on me . you get that ? joe ... it 's on me . listen to me . you got to let me take it . joey : i ca n't . steve : you got to . look at me . i 'm your dad . i can take it . please ... give it to me . joey : [ cries ] i 'll never forget how you stepped up for me , dad . steve : i know . i 'm just so thankful i was here to do it . who knows ? maybe someday your brother will give me a chance to be there for him too . huh ? lani : one more chance , that 's all i need . raines : are you sure snake does n't suspect you 're a cop ? lani : the fact that he called to meet again -- raines : could mean you 're walking into a trap . lani : true . i am missing a big chunk of what happened , thanks to that drug he slipped me . raines : he could have gone through your phone , your wallet . lani : i was undercover . i left nothing incriminating on me . but i might have said something while i was under the influence . there 's only one way to find out . i have to pursue this . there are too many lives at stake . raines : okay . but you need backup , and deveraux is your best bet . lani : no . i told you last night that there 's no way that jj will be on board with me going back to snake . raines : fine , then i 'll go . lani : wait , you 're gon na be my backup ? raines : so what , you do n't think i know how to do this anymore ? lani : no , i just -- raines : you need to wear a wire . that way , if something goes wrong , you wo n't be at the mercy of that animal . jennifer : okay , have a -- have a great first day . abigail : okay , yeah . well , good or bad , i 'm gon na call it a win for team abby , because i just -- i did it on my own . i went and i got a job and i got my own place and i did n't have any favors from my friends or my family and ... jennifer : i 'm really proud of you . abigail : thank you . thomas : [ laughs ] jennifer : [ laughs ] abigail : got to go , 'cause i got to drop him off at the day care and i just -- i do n't want to be -- ah , late , okay . jennifer : oh , listen , i do n't want to step on your independence at all , but maybe -- maybe i could just have thomas for the morning and get a little grandma time with him . abigail : do n't you need to be at `` the spectator `` ? jennifer : well , not until this afternoon . abigail : oh , well , i -- i did tell chad that i was gon na drop thomas off at the mansion on my lunch break . jennifer : okay , i can do that . abigail : okay . yeah , it would be really nice to get in early , as long as you 're sure . jennifer : i am positive . it -- it 's fine . abigail : okay . jennifer : you go . go . abigail : okay . okay , bye , sweetie . oh , i love you . be good for grandma , okay ? thomas : [ babbles ] abigail : all right . jennifer : okay , have a great day . abigail : okay . jennifer : i love you . abigail : bye . i love you . kate : you certainly seem to have rebounded from last night . chad : yeah , well , i 'm just happy to have something else to focus on . kate : well , i 'm happy that you 're open to our new lucrative source of revenue . i thought abigail might talk you out of it . chad : well , as my wife , she still has a say in the company , but in the end , i call the shots . kate : oh , that 's what i like to hear . chad : yeah . kate : so tell me about this artifact that we 're gon na grab from deimos . chad : okay , so it 's an ancient egyptian amulet that was discovered on the body of pharaoh ramses ii . now , it was believed to have been destroyed when ramses lost power , but deimos had grigor on the hunt for it . kate : ah , before grigor defected . chad : correct . and now deimos has hired somebody else , and grigor believes that they have recently found it . kate : uh - huh , so we 're gon na grab it from him before he delivers it to deimos . chad : yes , and it is worth $ 20 million . kate : i like that number . chad : who would n't ? kate : well , i do n't see any reason not to proceed . chad : there 's one . kate : what 's that ? chad : [ laughs ] it 's cursed . [ eerie music ] kate : [ laughs ] you ca n't be serious . chad : oh , i am . kate : well , i do n't believe in curses . i believe that you make your luck , good or bad . chad : indeed . however , this particular piece has a very interesting past . kate : give me an example . chad : the three englishmen who discovered it all met with very , very violent deaths . kate : ooh , unfortunate coincidence . chad : is it an unfortunate coincidence that several of the family members and distant relatives also met with a very tragic end ? kate : well , perhaps it 's a self - fulfilling prophecy once they found out about the curse . chad : perhaps . however , another descendant , after inexplicably losing his eyesight and attributing it to the curse , buried the amulet 50 years ago in england . kate : well , evidently , it 's been dug up , and we need to intercept it before deimos does . chad : so you 're not -- you 're not the least bit unnerved about the bad energy surrounding this thing , which -- which -- which , for the record , started when the original owners found it ? kate : you mean plagues of frogs and locusts , rivers turning to blood ? no , believe me , it 's gon na take a lot more than that to keep me from a good deal . chad : i 'm not surprised it does n't bother you , but brother andré 's a little bit more superstitious than us , so he might have something to say about it . kate : well , luckily for us , he 's climbing machu picchu , and i do n't think the chances of getting a wireless signal up there are very good , so ... chad : okay , then we move forward . why do n't we get our hands on this little gem ? kate : and turn around dimera fortunes . chad : that 's right . thomas : [ laughs ] jennifer : you 're looking so much like your daddy these days . maybe that 'll help your mama remember how happy she was with him . steve : well ... jennifer : oh , hey there . steve : this is a nice surprise . jennifer : hi ! steve : hi . jennifer : how are you ? hey , buddy , look . it 's your uncle steve . steve : oh . jennifer : say hi . steve : hey , little dude . what 's shakin ' ? you got a little bunny rabbit ? wow , he is so handsome . jennifer : so cute , right ? steve : all the girls are gon na be chasing after you , man . wow . jennifer : yeah , so i heard , uh ... heard you have a new son . thomas : [ laughs ] jennifer : how 's that going ? steve : well , not so good . jade : i 'm telling you , i 'm totally fine . besides , i 'm in the middle of moving . okay , fine . i 'll come in tomorrow . well , i have a full - on liver again . i just wish they would stop asking me to come in for more tests . tripp : maybe they want to see the whole picture . jade : okay , then take pictures , not blood . tripp : you know , i would n't mind getting the whole picture myself when it comes to who steve was protecting when he killed my mom . jade : i just meant he was protecting his family . from what i heard , ava had it out for all of the johnsons , which is why he did n't have a choice . tripp : but that -- that totally contradicts what he told me , that he was -- that he killed her because he was following isa orders . jade : yeah , well , there 's that too . he definitely had more than one reason to smother ava with a pillow . tripp : [ scoffs ] jade : sorry . i did n't mean to blurt it out like that . look , i know you 're trying to figure out this whole parent thing , but maybe you 're better off not knowing . tripp : why would you say that ? jade : because i know firsthand what it feels like to get the whole truth when it comes to parents . and god knows , i would have been better off not knowing . tripp : why ? why , what did you find out ? jade : basically that i was n't planned and they never wanted me . even after i gave my dad part of my liver , he was still ready to toss me aside like yesterday 's garbage . tripp : i 'm sorry . i did n't even realize . jade : all i 'm saying is , maybe you 're better off not knowing all the grisly details . tripp : i just think it 'd be easier to figure out how to feel if i , you know , knew a little more intel . jade : i think you 're asking for trouble . if you 're smart , you 'll stick to steve and kayla 's version of what happened and move on . tripp : i wish it was that easy . jade : well , it 's not like you can ask your mom for her side of the story . besides , the cops believe your dad 's take on what happened , so maybe you should too . tripp : maybe i should .

jennifer : like dario hernandez ? chad : yeah , so you know that he 's in love with her . jennifer : yes , she told me about that , but she looks at him as a friend . that 's it , nothing more . really , i believe the two of you are going to end up together . chad : hmm . jennifer : do n't give up on her . chad : i have n't . i have n't . jennifer : i know you 're hurt , and i do n't blame you . but if you just give her the space that she needs , i guarantee you she will come back . abigail : hey , not bad for a first day . tripp : oh , did you find something ?

abigail : well , i actually know the answer to that , but i do n't know if you 're really gon na want to hear it . tripp : it ca n't be worse than what i 've already heard . abigail : my aunt kayla found her at home with a syringe in her arm , and apparently , she was trying to kill herself and she was planning to frame my aunt for the murder . tripp : how -- how did she get to the hospital ? abigail : kayla brought her in . tripp : so your aunt kayla ended up saving my mom 's life ? abigail : yeah . when your mom regained consciousness , she accused my aunt kayla of trying to kill her . tripp : and -- and you 're sure that kayla 's telling the truth . abigail : what reason would she have to lie ?

[ scene_break ] scott : trial 's on . a good samaritan came trotting into the police station to alibi ric lansing . so the theory that ric lansing killed alcazar is just a last - ditch attempt on your client 's lover -- not to be confused with a husband -- to distract everybody from the truth . like his confession , it just makes brenda look all the more guilty . alexis : a thousand witnesses vouching for lansing wo n't restore his credibility as jason 's attorney , and temporary lack of representation is grounds for continuance if there ever was one . scott : well , not when it 's a delay tactic on your part . see , the judge has got a public defender standing by , ready to represent jason . alexis : without even interviewing him ? scott : ah , so what ? even if you gave him months with an attorney , he still would n't say anything because he 's too stupid to let his lawyer help ! alexis : thanks to you , my client is tied to jason , and if he goes to prison due to inept representation , then my client goes down with him and i wo n't let that happen . i will not let my client go to prison for one day for a murder that she did n't commit . now , if you push me , i will be forced to represent jason , as well . scott : so that 's why sonny was talking to you . he wants you to represent jason , never mind the fact that he helped get your sister killed . what is it ? why wo n't you ever turn him down ? why ?

[ chuckles ] that is such an unattractive word . no , i prefer to say that i was ... dealing in a piece with ... questionable provenance . nikolas : and so the real weeping naiad is ... ? ava : in a safe place . nikolas : you had me completely snowed . ava : do n't feel bad . nikolas : we could have been killed . risk your own life , but do n't risk mine . ava : you have no right to criticize . you 're pretending to be dead knowing full well that jason morgan is being blamed for your murder .

[ gasps ] oh , it 's hot . julian : so , um , so what 's going on with your case ? you know , i - i was thinking about it , and i was n't there when you were arrested , but maybe the police mishandled something ? is there any way you and diane can get the arrest null and void based on that ? alexis : they found nothing procedurally improper . julian : okay , so , uh , so what 's diane 's strategy ? i mean , any way she can , uh , she can get an acquittal ? alexis : the da is very confident with their forensic evidence . they have exhibit `` a , `` helena 's dagger , with carlos ' dna and my fingerprints on it . they have motive . carlos was gon na testify against you ; and , of course , they will cite my conflict of interest when i represented carlos . so they have forensic evidence , they have motive , they have everything . and even diane is n't confident that she can get an acquittal . [ sighs ] julian : whoa , whoa , whoa . you all right ? do -- do you need something ? i 'll get it for you . what do you need ? alexis : no , i ... i just need my phone . carlos : the suspense is killing me . what 'd you put in her tea ? julian : nothing ! hey , i ca n't do this . i wo n't do it . carlos : come on , julian . face it . it 's her life or yours . julian : [ sighs ] alexis : all charged . julian : you know , i ca n't , uh , i ca n't stand knowing that i 've lost you . alexis : you lost me when you murdered carlos . julian : i - i - i thought that , you know , carlos ' death could mean that we could go on to living as we were in this home , you know , with our family , holding on to everything that we -- we cherish , especially each other . i mean , i - i - i had no idea this would tear us apart , alexis . it does n't have to . alexis : what kind of future are we gon na have if i 'm in prison ? [ sighs ] julian : okay , look ... you 're -- you 're a really good lawyer , and if you say this -- this case against you is strong , then i believe you . but there 's got to be some sort of reasonable doubt . alexis : no , no , there is n't . they 've got the dagger , and i have no alibi . julian , if you let me take the rap for this , you 're not gon na only lose me , you 're gon na lose your children . they will turn on you . i promise you . you will be dead to them , to lucas and to sam . [ scene_break ] sam : my mother has been arrested ? why did n't molly or kristina call me ? jason : i do n't know , but i 'm sure that they 've got a good reason . sam : my mom is being charged with carlos ' murder . there 's no way that she killed him . jason : you 're right . i mean , your mother 's not a killer , and i do n't think she 's physically capable of killing him . carlos was stabbed to death . sam : okay , so what are you saying ? that my father is ? it 's okay . you -- you can say it , because i 'm -- i 'm thinking the same thing . jason : well , maybe julian needed to shut carlos up 'cause carlos could have flipped on him for duke 's murder . sam : okay , i believe that he would do that , but i ca n't believe that my father would allow my mother to take the fall for him . jason : i 'm sorry . sam : yeah , me , too . he 's probably telling himself that she 's got a better chance of being found not guilty . do -- do you think she knows about this ? do you think she 's covering for him ? jason : i do n't know . i mean , she 's looking at a life sentence . do you think she 'd do that to you and your sisters ? sam : i do n't -- i do n't know , jason . i do n't know . he -- he has got her so twisted up that she has either decided that she would do anything to protect him or he 's framed her . i have -- i have no idea , but either way , i have got to get back . jason : okay , i 'll go with you . sam : no , you ca n't . jason : hey . sam : come on , the last thing i need is for my mother and you to both be locked up . i would lose my mind . please just stay here . jason : s - sam . sam : i know -- i know the police are gon na ask me about you and nikolas when i get back , but they 're not gon na know for sure that i was with you . please , jason , just stay here . nikolas can not ruin our lives . [ scene_break ] nikolas : oh , yeah , i 'm sure you 're real concerned about jason . would it make you feel any better if i told you that i was actually trying to frame hayden for my death and that jason just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time ? ava : you do n't care what happens to an innocent man ? nikolas : jason has n't been innocent since he 's been sonny 's enforcer . and he 's got the best lawyer in the state , maybe one of the best in the country . and she has successfully defended him in plenty of cases , plenty of crimes that he actually committed . she 'll get him acquitted on this , too . ava : you 're just gon na leave , then ? never come back ? nikolas : i will call for spencer when i can . but yes . a couple hours , i 'll be on a charter jet . ava : you -- you have a plan already ? nikolas : you passed out last night , and i made the arrangements . ava : you know , huxley was on that plane with us from port charles . i 'm sure he knows where i live . i 'm sure he knows everything about me . he 's gon na come after me . i - i ca n't afford any more trouble at home . nikolas : give lynch the real statue . ava : i ca n't do that . nikolas : why not ? ava : i - i ha - have my reasons . they 're good ones . nikolas : look , it 's your choice . but if you do n't go home , where are you gon na go ? ava : with you .

'cause i believe in you , too . so whatever it takes to finish this project , i 'm happy to help . gwen : barbara , i can never let you do anything like that . barbara : gwen , you and will are my children . it 's my privilege . adam : thanks , but , you know , to finish the demo and cover any incidentals its kinda close -- probably $ 5,000 . barbara : oh . so $ 10,000 , would that do ? gwen : are you serious -- barbara : of course i am . gwen : oh , barbara , thank you so much -- will : i 'm sorry , this is not a good idea . [ scene_break ] lily : so , what 's going on with adam ? jade : i do n't know . we went out for new year 's eve . and we 've been out a few times since then . but every single time we make a plan , it just -- it seems to get pushed back or cancelled . and it 's not that he is n't sweet about it , he is sweet about it . he just seems so obsessed with making this demo for gwen . lily : maybe he 's a workaholic . jade : maybe . i do n't know , but it just seems different . it seems like his heart 's not into it . and a month ago , i would 've blamed gwen . you know , she 's always had it in for me because of will . but he 's not the type to let people tell him what to think . which makes me think he 's interested in somebody else . lily : maybe you 're thinking too much about it . now , it 's sad to say that most men are n't capable of doing more than one thing at the same time . it 's sad , it 's very sad , but true . maybe this demo thing is all he can handle right now . jade : yeah , it 's just the last time we were together -- is it okay if i talk to you about this kind of stuff ? lily : please . this is great . i love that you would confide in me . faith is treating me like yesterday 's lunch , so i 'm thrilled to talk to you . so , go ahead . feel free . jade : it 's okay to talk about sex ? lily : sure , we 're adults . of course , you can tell me anything . jade : good , because this is really been bothering me and i 've really wanted us to talk about it . adam and i were very intense . and the last time we were together , it was weird . it was like , i do n't know , he looked at me . and it was like he did n't see me . it was as if , i could have been anybody . lily : oh , that must have felt awful . jade : yeah , yeah . so , i stopped him . and i left . lily : good . that was the right thing to do . jade : you know , i 'm not going to let anybody treat me like that . i mean , especially after everything that happened with will . i 'm not going to be anybody 's plan b . lily : now you really sound like your mother . because rose never compromised when it came to love . or anything else , never . yeah , she was -- well , she treated herself like a queen and she expected nothing less from the men in her life . jade : well , she was right . well , thanks for the talk . i do feel a little bit better . and now i have to go . lily : well , you did n't finish your salad . jade : i 'm not hungry . lily : okay , bye . jade : thank you so much . [ scene_break ] will : this was my project , so i hate that i let the budget get out of hand . and you know how much i want to make this happen for you . but i 'm sorry , mom , we ca n't accept your money . barbara : honey , i 'm sorry if i made this sound like a gift . because it 's not . i know you would n't accept that . and also i 'm not trying to connivance a producer of any kind . no , this is a loan . and you can pay me back after gwen signs her first contract . will : well , that can take awhile . gwen 's amazing , but the music industry 's really unpredictable . barbara : i understand that . i 'm willing to take that risk . because i believe in her , too . pay me back when you come into the next phase of your trust . will : well , that 's an idea . but when you gave me the trust , you said this was going to be about me managing my own money . and you were n't going to bail me out or interfere , right , so ? barbara : and investing in your wife 's future is a wonderful way to start . and i applaud you both . and you too , adam . adam : thank you , barbara . we 'd really appreciate it . will : yeah , we do , but i just do n't think that -- adam : what 's your problem ? gwen : will , look , whatever you decide , its okay . i understand . barbara : you know what ? wives like this do n't grow on trees . so , i suggest you do it for your wife , okay ? take the money . gwen : it 's okay . will : okay , mom . we 'll take the money . gwen : you sure ? will : yeah . barbara : okay . $ 10,000 ? adam : yeah , that should do it . barbara : great . i have registered bonds back at my place . my broker is out of town skiing and so i 'll go back and grab them . gwen : well , what is a registered bond ? barbara : it 's a bond that states that anyone who holds it can have it redeemed at face value . i have them back in my safe at the suite . i 'll go grab them , and then i 'm going to stop over at tom and margo 's and drop off a get - well gift . can i meet you there ? will : yeah , sure . barbara : smile . your wife 's career is back on track , okay ? okay . adam : what 's going on ? will : nothing . you got what you wanted , so -- adam : so this demo was all my idea ? will : look , i do n't want to argue with you . adam : what 's your problem ? will : i just accepted $ 10,000 from my mom . adam : yeah , but you can pay back as soon as your trust rolls over , okay ? it 's not like they have to go out and dig ditches . the money 's there , waiting for you . will : yeah , it 's not about the money . adam : then what is it ? will : have you been gone that long ? this is my mom we 're talking about . adam : will , you 're not eleven , anymore . you can handle her . will : i know i can handle her , that 's not the point . adam : then , what 's the point ? will : it 's not a place i want to be in , okay ? owing her that kind of money . i do n't want to be in that situation . adam : suck it up for your wife 's sake . will : i am , that 's why i took the loan . adam : okay , then what are you whining about ? i mean , you got to make nice to your mother for a little a while . big deal . it 's worth it . will : maybe . [ scene_break ] elwood : well , how did you do that ? i mean , how did you steal money from your own mother ? casey : because she has this box that she uses to stash money in for emergencies . and half the time , she forgets it 's even there . so , i thought i could take it and put it back before she knew it was missing . and i was going to tell her about it . i really was . and then my dad got sick and she freaked out , and i could n't . and then she went to get some money for the pharmacy and she noticed that it was missing . and everyone was there . my dad has just got home from the hospital , so -- i mean , i just -- i could n't . now , if i come clean , it 's going to make things even worse . and on top of all that , they just got my grades . elwood : yeah , i mean , i just got a phone call from my dad about mine . so , what are you going to do ? about the money , not the grades . casey : i do n't know . just go back to the dorms and figure something out . elwood : no , no , you ca n't go back to dorms . you know the guys that you owe ? they 've been banging on the door the whole day . i mean , that 's why i 've been trying to reach you . they want their money , like now . and you ca n't go back to the dorms until you have it . i mean , all of it , all right . including this new five grand . casey : yeah , okay , where am i going to get that kind of money ? elwood : hey , that 's your problem , not theirs , all right ? you 're out of control . and it 's not fair to anybody . casey : whatever . then fine , i 'll go home . and i 'll tell my parents i want to stay here for a couple days until my dad gets back on his feet . and then , i 'll figure something out . elwood : hey , just get the money , casey . before something happens . [ scene_break ] emily : i 'm sorry . okay , i did n't mean to scare you . but the truth is , the man that took you . he 's in jail , and he 's going to stay there for a very long time . but he was friends with your uncle craig -- craig : no , no , he was not my friend . he was a business associate . your mother 's exaggerating -- - emily : stay away from him . do n't you talk to him . do n't you look at him . margo : you 're scaring daniel . emily : i am protecting him from your brother . and the fact that you 'd even allow him to come in this house after what he 's done . craig : what i 've done ? i brought flowers . emily : yeah , to a man you put in the hospital . daniel : wait , what ? i thought dad had a heart attack ? margo : you know what ? he did . emily : because your uncle craig gave it to him . and if margo ca n't understand that , then you 're coming home with me . margo : you know what ? i know that your dad wanted to see you the minute he woke up . so , do you want to come and hang out in our room ? emily : no , he 's not staying here with craig . margo : yeah , why do n't you come in here and hang out with us ? oh , oh , and look , your mom brought you the mp3 players . so , let 's go in here and i 'll be in , in just a minute , all right ? you go . you go wait . emily , i promise you , i will not let him out of my sight . emily : i do n't want craig here . margo : well , i 'm sorry . you 're going to have to go now . emily : well , you 're kicking me out ? margo : yes , i am . because i ca n't have all this screaming in my house . it 's too stressful for tom . emily : fine . fine , i 'll call -- i 'll call you in an hour . craig : would you like me to put these in water ? margo : no . craig : she 's upset you . come on , margo . you ca n't listen to emily , you know how unstable she is . margo : oh , yes , yes , she is unstable . craig : exactly . margo : but the fact remains , you sold your shares to the man who kidnapped my stepson . craig : i had nothing to do with that . margo : but you knew that he was ruthless . you knew that he would stoop to anything to get what he wanted . craig : i did n't know that he was going to hurt daniel . i mean , okay , if you need another reason for tom to have a heart attack , i understand that . but the fact is , he had a blockage in an artery . margo : and he was scared to death ! craig : okay , certainly that had something to do with . but the fact remains , i had nothing to do with daniel 's kidnapping -- margo : and when you came to the hospital , you were so very upset . and that kind of surprised me . craig : yeah , i was upset . i was very upset . i 'm very fond of tom . and i was worried about you . margo : yes , i 'm sure you were . but you were guilty , are n't you ? because emily was right . you hired a corporate thug to go after her because she sided with donovan . craig : did i like the fact that my partner betrayed me ? no , i did not . but i sold my half of the business because i could n't work with her anymore . margo : to a man that you knew would hurt her . craig : no , i knew she would n't like him . so , she had a choice . she could 've sold her end of the business . oh , come on , margo , be honest . you do n't care about emily any more than i do . after what she 's done to you . margo : she 's danny 's mother . anything you do to her affects my family . craig : okay , i know that -- margo : and now the man that i love is in there recovering from a heart surgery . craig : look , he 's going to be okay . he 's strong -- margo : craig -- craig : margo , you know that i would do nothing to hurt you . i love you . margo : but you do hurt me . you hurt me , you hurt tom , you hurt danny -- craig : it 's going to be all right if you have a little rest . margo : just go . craig : please , let me do something for you . let me -- i 'll make you a cup of tea or something . margo : tea ? get outta here . [ scene_break ] gwen : hey . i just want you to know that nobody 's made that kind of sacrifice for me before . will : it 's just money . gwen : no , it 's not just money . it 's like crossing a bridge back to your mom . will : it 's not that big of a deal , all right ? i 'm just going to pay her back when we get the trust . gwen : it 's a big deal , and you and i both know it . and i 'm never going to forget it , okay ? will : i should get going . i got to pick up a book before i head over to tom and margo 's . gwen : you want me to pick it up for you ? will : no , no . that 's fine . you guys have work to do . so i 'll see you later . gwen : bye . will : bye . adam : hey , you 're back in the game . gwen : yeah . yeah , thanks to will . adam : yeah . although for a second there , i did n't think he was going to take the money . gwen : but he did . adam : yeah . sure did n't seem too happy about it , though . gwen : well , his relationship with his mom has n't been the easiest thing in the whole world . he probably felt like he was signing himself up for more abuse , but -- but it 's going to be okay . she 's -- she 's mellowed . adam : yeah , that was my impression . gwen : losing jennifer was really hard on her and i know that will has n't gotten over it either . adam : maybe that explains it . gwen : explains what ? adam : well , i just do n't buy that this is all about his mother . gwen : oh , believe me , it is . she put him through hell . adam : yeah , but he 's a grown man , you know , living on his own , married . and it 's not like he has to go out and work for it , it 's already in the pipeline . you know , i envy him . for a lot of reasons . you know , we should get back to work . gwen : you know , if you do n't think it 's about his mom , what do you think it 's about ? adam : who knows . maybe you 're right . maybe he still is a little raw after losing jennifer and johnny . it 's enough to make anyone gun - shy . you know this track list ? we should think about this . i really do n't think that starting with a ballad is such a good idea . gwen : so what do you think he 's afraid of ? adam : ah , i 'm probably wrong . gwen : that 's never stopped you before . what 's he scared of ? adam : losing you . [ scene_break ] meg : this is what he does . he sees things and then comes running to the rescue . only then , you find out that he set the whole thing up so he could play the hero . paul : that 's not true . meg : he 's trying to get me to take him back . only that 's not going to happen so give it up . paul : that 's not what i 'm trying to do . meg : oh , so maybe you 're trying to get me fired . is this some sort of payback ? paul : no . bob : look , we 'll have to do this later , i got called to surgery . meg : i 'm sorry -- how could you do this ? you know how important this job is to me . paul : meg , the last thing i want to do is hurt you . i would do anything to get whole thing to stop . i 've tried everything i can to stop seeing the things that i 'm seeing and nothing 's working . meg : how many times have i told you to see a neurologist ? paul : fine , i 'll see a neurologist ! now , will you help me figure out what it is that i saw ? because whatever 's going to happen to somebody is going to happen in one of these corridors . meg : i 'm sorry , but i do n't have time for a scavenger hunt . i 'm have an important project to run for the hospital and i 'm late as it is . paul : the blood drive . excuse me , do you know where bob hughes is ? nurse # 2 : i believe dr. hughes is in surgery right now , but you can leave a message . paul : no , there 's no time for that . nurse # 2 : you can check here at the desk . paul : where 's the blood drive ? nurse # 2 : it 's right in front of you . [ scene_break ] gwen : will 's not losing me . adam : i 'm not saying it 's logical . it 's just , you know , the more involved you get with your career , the more it probably changes his impression of what he thought married life was going to be . you know , you dropped out of school . you 're out there in the real world making a name for yourself . who knows ? maybe he feels like he ca n't keep up . gwen : well , that 's not true . adam : i 'm not saying it is . but you know ? he did n't seem too upset that he was going to have to pull the plug . when his mother arrived , she practically had to beg him to take the money . just does n't seem like that 's the way someone would act if they 're committed to something . gwen : well , it 's not his dream , it 's mine . and he is committed -- to me . adam : good , there 's no worries . you know , barbara 's coming through with a big stack of bonds to tide us over , so it 's great . jade : will 's mom is giving you money ? adam : yeah , we had a little bit of a budget crisis , so she 's loaning us $ 10,000 . jade : $ 10,000 ? adam : music takes money . jade : oh , are n't you the lucky girl ? adam : play nice . jade : no , really . rich husband , rich mother - in - law -- gwen : we 're paying her back . jade : oh , with what ? the trust fund will 's mom gave him ? adam : gwen and i are in the middle of something . what 's up ? jade : you asked me to come here so we could talk about stuff ? adam : yeah , we do need to talk . so could you meet me at my house in about a half hour ? you know , gwen and i need to finish up something . i need to book another studio session . and it wo n't take long , but i really need to get on it . jade : right . adam : so can we meet later ? jade : yeah , i 'll wait for you outside of your mom 's house . but i do n't feel like freezing to death , so call me if you get tied up . gwen : you know , you did n't have to do that . we could 've talked later . adam : hey , gwen , i just really want to apologize for going over budget , but that was all me , not will . i mean , i was just trying to do what needed to be done to finish the project . and that 's no excuse . it wo n't happen again . gwen : we were all just doing the best we can . adam : yeah , but i 'm supposed to be the pro . so , you know , the demo 's going to smoke , gordon 's going to love you . six months from now , you 're going to be on another planet , i promise . c 'm on , we got to get to work . [ scene_break ] lily : emily . hi . how 's daniel ? i was so relieved he was found . emily : he 's a mess . lily : was he hurt ? emily : no , not physically . but he was definitely traumatized . lily : of course he was . emily : i 'm so sorry . lily : yeah . emily : because of him . lily : who ? emily : craig . craig is the one -- lily : craig ? emily : who had my son kidnapped . did you know that , lily ? lily : what ? craig : hi , lily . will you excuse us for just one -- ? lily : sure . emily : get your hands off of me . craig : keep it up , emily . and i will make sure you really pay . lily : is there a problem ? emily : yeah , you 're looking at him . you stay away from me and you stay away from my son . lily : oh , emily -- what was that about ? craig ? craig : it 's just emily sounding off . lily : she made it sound like you had something to do with daniel 's kidnapping . craig : i do n't know if you 've been reading the financial papers lately , but i just sold my share of `` the intruder . `` lily : yeah , i did read that . craig : the guy that i sold it to , he wanted her shares too and she refused , so , apparently , he kidnapped daniel to try to force her hand . lily : what does this have to do with you ? craig : emily 's trying to destroy me . she sided with dusty when he tried to take johnny away from me . she 's been running around town mouthing off to anyone who 'll listen . my own daughter 's turned against me . lost my son . i 've been shot . i 'm sorry , did you say something ? lily : i was wondering what selling your shares of `` the intruder `` has to do with daniel 's kidnapping . craig : well , apparently , i sold it to a very bad apple . lily : which should be emily 's problem , not yours . did you warn her ? craig : of course i did . i told her he was ruthless and that she should sell out . lily : and she refused ? well , that 's her problem . is that cold ? is that a little cold for me ? maybe i 've been spending to much time on my mother 's knee . but i know -- i know -- in business , once you sign over your shares , that 's it . you 're responsibility is over , done . craig : would you please talk to my sister ? lily : yeah , i will talk to you sister , if i have to . you 're no saint . you might have an agenda here . craig : i did n't tell him to kidnap that child . i did n't tell him anything , i just sold him the shares . lily : knowing it would make emily 's life miserable . craig : her work life . i had no intention of getting anybody hurt , especially an innocent child . and now i 'm persona non grata at my own sister 's house . my whole family 's turned against me . lily : at least you still have some friends . craig : really ? name one . lily : you have me . i do n't always agree with everything that you do , but i am still your friend .

make you wear a big scarlet `` a `` to the wedding ? jackie : please do n't joke ! nick : you are really upset about this . jackie : nicky , i just found him again -- nick : well , it 's not like your marriage is ending , or anything . he 'll get over it . he 's just making you sweat it out a little bit . jackie : i wish it were that simple . nick : well , it will be . where is he ? jackie : he 's in the study . with deacon . nick : what the hell 's that all about ? jackie : i do n't know . nick : it 's not like they have anything in common . probably just asking him for another chance . jackie : what ? nick : for a job . jackie : oh . nick : ca n't really help but feel sorry for the guy . jackie : well , do n't . the man is trouble , nicky . nick : mother what is this all about ? what , do you think he 's a bad influence ? the old man can handle a small fry like deacon sharpe . as a matter of fact , deacon 's the one you ought to be worried about . jackie : you know what i do n't understand ? why you had to invite him here in the first place . nick : he 's trying to fit in , mother . so cut him a little slack . jackie : i think you 've done enough of that for everybody . i mean , nicky . what were you thinking ? welcoming him into the family ? nick : he 's hope 's father . i want him to be part of her life . jackie : yes , i know . it 's just that you do n't know what he is capable of . i mean , nicky , he could turn her world upside - down . nick : when did you become such a pessimist ? bottom line is i did n't know my father , growing up . and i do n't want that for hope . now i love you , but you 're just going to have to get used to it . you 're going to be seeing a lot more of deacon sharpe . deacon : this is how you treat your family , right ? massimo : i need to know i can trust you . deacon : you could 've just asked . i 've told you , over and over -- massimo : words ! are meaningless . actions are what matter . today 's your lucky day , deacon . because i 'm going to show you how you can prove your loyalty . i 've got job for you -- it 's a very important job . deacon : a job ? massimo : yeah . you did say you 'd do anything to be part of my organization . deacon : that was before you put a gun in my face . yeah . massimo : okay . it 's your one and only chance , deacon . this assignment is one of a very sensitive nature . it is going to require cunning , discretion , and above all , loyalty . it struck me today that maybe you were the right man for the job . but if you 're not interested- deacon : go on , tell me about the assignment . massimo : you tell me . are you in or you out ? deacon : i 'm in . massimo : congratulations , deacon . you 're one of us . jackie : what is it with deacon ? he 's charmed even you . nick : do n't be so hard on the guy , mother . you barely know him . jackie : i know all i need to know . nick : now you sound like eric forrester . jackie : eric forrester ? ! what does eric got to do with this ? nick : well , obviously he 's colored your opinion of deacon . eric was never able to give that man a second chance . i just happen to think this family is a bit more charitable . are n't we mother ? see you . jackie : what could they be doing in there ? ! deacon : a hell of an initiation ceremony you 've got there , massimo . massimo : i trust i made my point . deacon : so what 's this job ? massimo : it concerns my wife . deacon : what about your wife ? massimo : you two are already friends , sort of . deacon : i would n't go that far . massimo : you 'll go further . i want you to get her confidence . i want you to get her to be able to confide in you . and then i want you to come and report back to me . deacon : what the hell do you want me spying on your wife for ? massimo : why do you suppose ? she 's been lying to me . the other night she stayed out all night . claimed she was drunk , too humiliated to come home and face me . deacon : you know , i mean , it could happen . god knows i know i 've done it before . massimo : i have no doubt she was drunk . she seems to be making a habit of it , these days . but there 's more to it . she was n't alone -- and i want you to find out who she was -- deacon : whoa , whoa , whoa . i am not your guy , no . massimo : i suppose i could hire a detective . but i think i 've got the right guy . deacon : massimo , your wife went to bat for me . now you 're asking me just to turn on jackie ? massimo : so much for your unbending loyalty . deacon : wait a second . massimo : no , do n't worry about it . i 'll get someone else . deacon : someone else ? massimo : yeah , listen . i have a lot of associates who would be only too happy to help me out . deacon : you bring me in here . you put a gun to my head . you ca n't just ask me to -- massimo : yes i can ! and i will . deacon : all right , massimo , fine ! i 'll do it . if this is my only way i can prove my loyalty to you then -- i 'm your guy . massimo : good . maybe this is the start of a real profitable association . deacon : all right , who do you think she 's running around with ? massimo : why are you acting as if you do n't already know ? deacon : massimo , how the hell would i know who your wife 's running around with ? massimo : he has n't exactly been subtle . deacon : who ? massimo : eric forrester . deacon : that 's who you think . massimo : well , i do n't have proof , but that 's where you come in . deacon : just out of curiosity -- once i get this proof for you ? what are you going to do with it ? massimo : you leave that to me . deacon : that 's what i 'm afraid of . massimo : no , no no . just remember one thing , all right ? you do n't say one word of this to brooke , dominick , or anyone else . deacon : i got the message . i definitely do n't want to be on your bad side . massimo : good talking with you , deacon . deacon : yeah , same here . hey , thank you so much for everything . okay . jackie , thank you for everything . especially your hospitality . jackie : so , darling , what was all that about ? massimo : what , that ? i just did what everyone asked me to do -- i welcomed him into the family . nick : shirley 's taking her nap ? brooke : shirley ? nick : yeah . seriously , do n't you think hope looks like shirley temple ? oh , come on , you know she does . i was thinking , we were doing all this name- swapping , we might as well change her first name , too . brooke : no ! how about we stick with hope , okay ? nick : okay suit yourself . what 's in the bag ? brooke : a wedding dress . do you like it ? nick : wait a minute . i 'm not supposed to see that , am i ? before the big day ? brooke : only if it 's on me . nick : oh , okay . it 's nice , beautiful . brooke : eric forrester made it for me . nick : i figured there 'd be a forrester infiltrate this wedding somehow . brooke : i do n't have to wear it . nick : do you want to ? brooke : yes . nick : all right , then you should . brooke : does it bother you ? nick : i would tell you if it bothered me . let 's make that a rule , okay ? this 'll be our first rule . if i 'm doing anything that ticks you off , you make sure you tell me . got it ? brooke : got it . nick : good . brooke : where is this coming from ? nick : where 's what coming from ? brooke : this attitude . nick : my mother . i do n't like the way her and the old man are getting along . you know , they 're just not communicating . that 's the key to relationships -- communicating . otherwise , you have all this misunderstanding and hurt feelings underneath of it . they should be happy right now . and they 're not . so you promise me . now , you -- you make sure that if you need to say something to me , or if i 'm doing something , you get it off your chest , okay ? brooke : you sure ? it might be opening pandora 's box . nick : i can handle it . for example , if i 'm ever being annoying -- because i can be annoying sometimes , do you know that ? brooke : you ? nick : mm - hmm . you just let it out , okay ? you just tell me . brooke : oh , i will . nick : promise ? brooke : promise . nick : swear ? brooke : swear . nick : double swear ? brooke : okay , now you 're being annoying . nick : atta girl . where did your head just go now ?

my mother said `` nice . `` no one 's ever used the word `` nice `` to describe my life , or my day , or anything . what is that all about , anyway ? `` nice `` ? brooke : yeah , i know , my life has n't really been nice . it 's been scandalous and shameful , never nice . nick : i got to give you the nod on this one , kid . you 've gone through a lot . brooke : well , i just made wrong decisions . nick : well , now you 're going to start making right ones , right ? brooke : right . thank you . nick : for what ? brooke : for just always being sure about everything . i mean , it does n't seem to drive you crazy the way i 'm always being pulled in opposite directions . you 're always on an even keel . nick : i 'm the captain . that 's my job . brooke : well , thank you for being my captain . deacon : yeah ? jackie : what happened in there ? deacon : you 're not going to believe this . jackie : try me . deacon : well , massimo and i , we had a little heart - to - heart . i do n't really think he believed your story from the other night , jackie . jackie : what ? he confided in you about that ? [ jackie sighs ] is he playing some kind of game ? deacon : yeah , yeah . it 's called `` i , spy . `` jackie : what ? deacon : jackie , he 's hired someone to keep an eye on you . jackie : oh , my god . do you know who ? deacon : yeah . me .Summarize.[/INST]massimo takes the gun away from deacon 's head . he then tells deacon he needs his complete loyalty and offers him a job spying on jackie . he tells deacon that jackie has been lying to him , and that he needs deacon to gain her confidence and find out who she 's seeing . massimo thinks it 's eric forrester . out in the living room , nick and jackie have a conversation about how upset jackie has been . nick tells her that massimo will get over his anger . but he 's still concerned about how weird jackie has been acting . they discuss jackie 's distrust of deacon . nick does n't understand why jackie wo n't give deacon a chance . nick finally leaves . jackie paces the living room trying to figure out what they 're doing in the study . when they finally come out , deacon thanks jackie for a lovely evening and leaves . massimo tells jackie he was welcoming deacon to the family . jackie sneaks out to the garden and calls deacon , who tells her about the job massimo offered him . jackie is dumfounded .</s> | 4,367 |

[ scene_break ] katie : okay . you have my undivided attention . listen , i 'm sorry if i was rude to you before . you have to understand that one of the challenges of being married to bill spencer is that i have at least one person coming to see me every day saying , `` do you know what your husband has done ? `` taylor : no , no , no , no . no , it 's all right . um , i was a little abrupt myself . i was a little annoyed liam was trying to get rid of me . katie : yeah , well , he 's not the most subtle . i think that 's one of the qualities he 's inherited from his father . but you deserve better from me i mean , honestly , i think you 're one of the reasons why bill and i are still together . taylor : i seriously doubt that . katie : no , granted , our therapy session was a complete disaster , but we need a safe place to say some dangerous things , and we aid them , and the world did n't end , so ... taylor : well , the therapeutic relationship did . katie : yeah . and i suppose that 's difficult . i did n't realize that . taylor : well , yeah , i - i guess that sometimes it can be , but , you know , what usually bothers me is if i do n't know if the original issue that the couple came in with was ever resolved . katie : okay . well ... ( sighs ) the bottom line is that bill felt that i betrayed him by telling you what happened with amber . and he has definite abandonment issues . and even though i felt like leaving was the right thing to do at the time , i think i stayed away too long , and i wo n't make that mistake again . he 's a difficult person to figure out sometimes , but we have faced our problems , and we have moved past them . in -- in fact , we just renewed our vows . taylor : yes , yes , yes . i heard about that . katie : i wanted bill to know that i love him unconditionally . i wanted him to hear those words , and i think he did . ( sighs ) what ? taylor : katie , when i came over here , i - i knew i wanted to come and talk to you for the right reasons , and i - i 'm pretty sure that i have . liam was accusing me -- well , that 's -- that 's too strong of a word -- katie : yeah , well , he 's a little rough around the edges . so what ? taylor : i 'm not saying that i 'm blameless in this , because i have known for a while now that steffy has had feelings for your husband . katie : she 's not exactly subtle , so do n't feel bad . i appreciate your concern . taylor : not that i thought -- i did n't think it was harmless , but i had no idea it would come to this . katie : i am not worried about your daughter , okay ? i am choosing to ignore her . taylor : katie , you 're not going to be able to . katie : ( sighs ) taylor : they 're very involved . bill says that he 's in love with her . katie : ( laughs ) this is -- you 're lying . taylor : bill is leaving you for my daughter ! katie : ( gasps ) ( breathing heavily )Summarize.[/INST]bill slyly asks steffy where is his room ; he will need a home office . she likes the sound of that . this will be their home and for now she will keep him in the bathtub over there as her pet alligator . she loves her sword necklace from him and feels like she is more official now .. or at least will be when he ends it with katie . she is anxious and wants to be with him . he tells her they want the same thing , so just give him some time to work it out . she says it is so hard ; she does n't want to wait . she 's with him , but it 's not their real life . this is just a place now for her to wait and hang around for him . katie tells taylor that she wo n't stand here and listen to her badmouthing her husband in front of his son . she knows all about steffy throwing herself at bill and she is not concerned ; she knows who the aggressor is . brooke shows up and liam takes this opportunity to grab taylor and get her out of the room , leaving brooke and katie to talk . katie says she is not going to play into taylor 's hand and listen to her rants . she trusts that she knows bill and he loves her , and steffy will just have to realize that . liam tells dr. hayes that she is not going to say a word now against his father . she muses that she is . she is going to help his father to have the guts to do what he has n't been able to do . he has a sweet little wife at home and a hot little number on the side , so he has no reason to want to change that .</s> | 4,961 |

[ stephanie laughs ] i love you . you 're a survivor , mom . that 's huge . it 's something to be so proud of , not pitied . what you went through made you a better mother . though i would never tell grandma ann that . i would n't give the old bag the satisfaction . stephanie : do n't worry , you wo n't have to . she 's out of my life . no one in the family 's ever going to have to see her or deal with her . brooke : oh , wow . you still make my toes curl . ridge : you know , i 'll be your sex slave any time you want , logan . brooke : yeah ? ridge : mm - hmm . brooke : you keep this pace up , you 'll get a big bonus at christmas . ridge : oh , i thought that was my christmas bonus . brooke : it 's great to be unemployed , is n't it ? we can have so much fun . ridge : i just wish everybody else was having as much fun . brooke : is your dad hanging in there ? ridge : he 's lost a lot of his enthusiasm for starting up a new company . brooke : well , that 's a lot to think about -- to build a company from ground up . ridge : yeah , well , he may not have to , actually . brooke : he 's retiring ? ridge : no . we might get forrester back from nick . brooke : how ? ridge : taylor think it 's a long shot , but it could work . she 's giving nick therapy . brooke : nick in therapy ? ridge : yeah . she feels if he gets into his issues , he may find out and realize that forrester is not going to be as much fun as he thought . brooke : well , of course not . 'cause he wanted to run the company with me . ridge : yeah , but she 's convinced that this therapy could help him . brooke : hmm . well , i certainly hope so . so , then what ? i mean , if it does , he 's just going to give the company back ? ridge : stranger things have happened . look what taylor 's done for my mother . she was n't exactly the therapy type , either . brooke : is stephanie still seeing taylor ? ridge : yeah . confronting all of her mother 's issues and all was just the first step . she 's still pretty angry . brooke : does that upset you ? ridge : well , i guess . that 's why i asked taylor to stop by . i hope you do n't mind . brooke : no , of course not . i know how important your mother is to you . and if she has a problem , we 'll deal with it together . felicia : okay , just give him a kiss for me . stephanie : everything all right ? felicia : yes . she could n't find the clean bibs . not that there are any . stephanie : and i thought this baby changed you . felicia : he has , mother . he 's changed me in so many ways . the way that i look at the world -- everything i do , say , think . he 's part of it . which is why i find your mother 's behavior so frickin ' appalling . if i found out that somebody was abusing my child , i would be a homicidal maniac . and she just blocked it out , ignored it . this is why you told us all she was dead . stephanie : yes . i had to find a way to shut her out . i think i -- i had to find a way to try to control the situation . that 's what taylor says , anyway . she said that 's why i 've tried to control everything else since . your lives , your father 's -- but no more , i hope . i want to make things different . i want to give all of you , every one of you as much space as you need . felicia : not too much space . no , i mean it , i want christmas like last year . i want everyone to be here -- dante included -- exactly like last year . without the dying of cancer part . stephanie : well , that would be good . i promise you . nothing 's going to spoil the holidays . you know what i realized ? just realized ? that i 've spent the last 30 years hoping against hope that my mother would be able to acknowledge what happened . and she couldn't . so , i 'm done hoping . she 's never going to change .

'cause he wanted to run the company with me . ridge : yeah , but she 's convinced that this therapy could help him . brooke : hmm . well , i certainly hope so . so , then what ? i mean , if it does , he 's just going to give the company back ? ridge : stranger things have happened . look what taylor 's done for my mother . she was n't exactly the therapy type , either . brooke : is stephanie still seeing taylor ? ridge : yeah . confronting all of her mother 's issues and all was just the first step . she 's still pretty angry . brooke : does that upset you ? ridge : well , i guess . that 's why i asked taylor to stop by . i hope you do n't mind . brooke : no , of course not . i know how important your mother is to you . and if she has a problem , we 'll deal with it together . felicia : okay , just give him a kiss for me . stephanie : everything all right ? felicia : yes . she could n't find the clean bibs . not that there are any . stephanie : and i thought this baby changed you . felicia : he has , mother . he 's changed me in so many ways . the way that i look at the world -- everything i do , say , think . he 's part of it . which is why i find your mother 's behavior so frickin ' appalling . if i found out that somebody was abusing my child , i would be a homicidal maniac . and she just blocked it out , ignored it . this is why you told us all she was dead . stephanie : yes . i had to find a way to shut her out . i think i -- i had to find a way to try to control the situation . that 's what taylor says , anyway . she said that 's why i 've tried to control everything else since . your lives , your father 's -- but no more , i hope . i want to make things different . i want to give all of you , every one of you as much space as you need . felicia : not too much space . no , i mean it , i want christmas like last year . i want everyone to be here -- dante included -- exactly like last year . without the dying of cancer part . stephanie : well , that would be good . i promise you . nothing 's going to spoil the holidays . you know what i realized ? just realized ? that i 've spent the last 30 years hoping against hope that my mother would be able to acknowledge what happened . and she couldn't . so , i 'm done hoping . she 's never going to change . [ doorbell rings ] i 'll get that . i 'll be right back . stephanie : mother -- ann : hello , stephanie . rachel ray here taylor : what 's going on ? you said you were worried about stephanie ? ridge : yeah , i am . taylor : well , i only have a little bit of time . i 've got to go to a session at the office . brooke : with nick ? taylor : right . brooke : i 'm sorry , but i just ca n't imagine nick in therapy , let alone having an epiphany about giving the company back . taylor : all i can say is , i believe if nick deals with some of his issues , he might be able to find out why he wanted to take forrester so badly in the first place , and he 'll realize he does n't need it . i mean , i 'm not guaranteeing anything , but -- analysis can be a very difficult process . ridge : and it could take a long time , right ? taylor : true . ridge : well , that 's why i asked you to come over . come on in . sit . mother 's been kind of acting like this whole abuse thing is all wrapped up , like it 's all in the past . taylor : well , i can see why you 'd be concerned . brooke : it seems like she 's getting on with her life . taylor : yeah -- the kind of breakthrough stephanie 's made has been great , but this has been a lifetime of anger and pain . that kind of stuff does n't just evaporate overnight . ridge : so , how do we help her with this ? taylor : just be there for her , support her . but really , stephanie 's the one that has to do all the work . i mean , she 's already starting to become aware of when she 's becoming controlling again . but she 's done the most important part , facing her mother and dealing with her . brooke : stephanie 's mother still has n't acknowledged her father 's abuse . taylor : yes , and that 's been very invalidating for her . brooke : okay , well , mother seems to feel like she 's okay , but i know there 's got to be a hell of a lot of anger underneath all that . taylor : yes , and i 'll be working with her on a lot of that . but i really have to be honest with you . unless her mother is willing to reach out to her in some way , stephanie is not going to get a real kind of healing . ann : stephanie , are n't you going to invite us in ? felicia : mom , who is -- stephanie : what do you want ? pamela : go on . go on , mom . ann : i want to talk to you . but i 'd rather not do it here in a doorway . pamela : stephanie , wait -- felicia : mom , i think she wanted to talk to you . stephanie : i do n't care . i do n't want to hear one thing she has to say . felicia : are n't you even curious ? stephanie : no . felicia : mother , i do n't think aunt pam would have brought her here if she was just going to berate you . stephanie : if pam wanted to see me , she should have come alone . [ doorbell rings ] ignore it . they 're going to go away . [ doorbell rings ] do n't you answer that door . felicia , do n't you answer that ! felicia : come in . aunt pam , it 's really good to see you again . pamela : good to see you , too , sweetheart . ann : you -- you must be felicia . i recognize you from the christmas cards stephanie sends pamela . stephanie : you 're not welcome here , mother . i want you to go . pamela : do n't you want to hear what she has to say ? stephanie : no . you know better than this . pamela : it was n't my idea . stephanie : what do you want ? ann : i want to talk to you , civilly , like mature adults . stephanie : what about ? pamela : just give her a chance . we 've come a long way . ann : do you think that was easy for me ? traveling across country in my condition ? i 'm not a well woman . i 'm so tired . i think i need to sit down . felicia : i 'll get you some water . stephanie : pam -- you ambushed me . pamela : you would n't have seen us if i told you we were coming . stephanie : you 're damn right . pamela : i know she 's hurt you . you 're angry , you have every right to be . and mom knows it . she 's been different since you came to chicago . your visit had a real impact on her , steph . stephanie : all right , mother . you have something to say , say it . and then get out . ( announcer ) gentle enough for the tenderest lips . brooke : is there a chance that stephanie 's mother could come around ? ridge : i do n't really remember much about her . taylor : well , from everything i 've heard from stephanie , i seriously doubt it . brooke : she must be pretty cold - hearted to let her own child be abused . ridge : so how do we help her with all this ? taylor : sometimes you can't . sometimes they 're more concerned about their own comfort . i do n't know , i do n't want to make a judgment . maybe she was afraid of her husband , too . brooke : or maybe she was afraid of what people might think . taylor : i guess it 's just clear that she 's still in denial , anyway . ridge : you think it might help if we contacted our grandmother ? i mean , would it make a difference if she heard from her own grandkids what this denial of hers has done to mother and how it 's effected us ? brooke : yeah , but a person ca n't feel guilt unless they feel that they did something wrong . ridge : maybe deep down , she does . maybe we could encourage her to open up some kind of dialogue with our mother . taylor : well , if you decide to do that , just try to do it face to face . i mean , i really wish that stephanie had been able to do that wither father before he died . brooke : so , the next best thing would be for stephanie to confront her mother . taylor : yes , if her mother could acknowledge the abuse she witnessed . but i do n't know about that . it 's been a long time . i do n't know if stephanie 's going to be able to find it in her heart to forgive her . ann : stephanie , please , do n't be so hostile . stephanie : oh , i do n't have the right ? ann : it 's not necessary , darling . i came to visit my daughter . to admire your beautiful home and see your children . so lovely . and so grown up . stephanie : small talk , mother . ann : we ca n't catch up ? have a normal conversation ? stephanie : we never had a normal relationship . ann : we had our problems . stephanie : yes . are you ready to deal with them ? because if you 're not , you 're going to be wasting my time . ann : i 've been thinking a lot about your visit to chicago . i 'm sorry it ended the way it did . the things you said really got to me , stephanie . truthfully , they bothered me , hurt me . the awful things you said about your father . accusing him -- john did so many good things -- stephanie : stop it ! i know what happened , and i 'm not going to be denied . ann : you 're right . i wo n't pretend anymore . it 's true . it 's all true . your father did hit you . i heard it . time and time again . i saw it . i did nothing to stop it . each time it happened , i 'd tell myself it was the last time . and when it happened again , i 'd -- i 'd convince myself i 'd have the strength to step in . but i never did . and i hated myself for it . i could n't look at your bruises , your welts . i should have said something , i should have done something . i was your mother . i should have stopped it . oh , i am so ashamed , stephanie . oh , not of you , not of you , my baby . of myself . my weakness , my failure as a mother . i know i do n't have the right to ask you this , but i 'm begging , please -- can you find it in your heart to forgive me ? forgive me . please .Summarize.[/INST]ridge tells thorne via phone that he 's glad he 's at the house now . with the charges against mcgrath dropped , he 's liable to be dropping by . ridge has a flashback / fantasy of brooke in black teddy which proves to come true as she greets him for real and asks how lucky does he feel ? hungrily he kisses her and says he 's the luckiest guy in the world . he will gladly be her sex slave any time she wants . felicia tells stephanie that it really sucks being separated from dante . stephanie offers for her to fly to italy and she will keep the baby . felicia tells her mother now she really understands her and appreciates her for being a royal pain in the you - know - what . they both vow they do n't ever want to see grandma ann again . the doorbell rings , stephanie answers and there stands ann and pamela . steph slams the door in their face , she wants nothing to do with them . felicia opens it again . steph feels pam ambushed her . ann wants to talk so steph tells her to talk , then get out .</s> | 6,179 |

[ kay remembering ] john : when you came out of that quarry , it 's not what you said when you saw that there was not a stitch of clothes in sight -- kay : well , thanks to your so amusing -- thanks to your so amusing fraternity brothers -- john : now wait a minute , we never did prove that they were the ones that pulled that little prank . kay : do you know if i did n't know you so well , goosey ... john : oh , katherine ... kay : i 'd say you had a hand in that yourself . [ scene_break ] kay : hmm ? yes , i , too , am going to miss your father very , very much . still , i know it 's just a matter of time until we meet again . we 're gon na share a lot of laughs ... together . traci : daddy was always so strong . and he never gave up on any one of us . that 's how i was able to ... go out in the world and find my way . i always knew that daddy was here , holding me up . the greatest gift my father ever gave me ... was teaching me how to believe in myself . [ traci remembering ] traci : thanks for being so understanding , dad . john : have i told you something lately ? it 's awful good having you home again . traci : well , it 's wonderful to be home . especially since i have such a super neat dad . john : super neat , huh ? traci : yeah . super , super neat . john : i love you . [ scene_break ] traci : oh , daddy ... what will i ever do without you ? i love you , daddy . jack : you did great . you did great . jill : it 's impossible for me to stand here and even begin ... to tell you how much your father meant to me . he brought so much to my life . but nothing he ever gave me could compare to when we had billy . when i lost my first son , phillip -- part of me died . you know , i honestly thought that i would never be able to feel joy again . but then john and i found our way back to each other . and he showed me that i could . and , then , miracle of miracles , along came billy . and , trust me , no one was more stunned than your father . [ jill remembering ] john : it 's because of you that we have this wonderful little boy . and i love you . and i love our little child . and do n't you ever , ever forget that . jill : i love you so much . [ scene_break ] jill : no one could replace my first son . but i promise you , i came back to life the day i remarried your father and we had our son . and i have never been more grateful than i am standing here today that we had that child together . because through billy and through all of you ... john will live on . john does live on . jack : my father and i share the same name -- john abbott . from the time i was a very little boy , i knew that name carried a great deal of weight in this town . it was a name people identified with success , with power , with wealth , as dad built jabot from nothing to an industry giant . to the hundreds of people who worked for him over the years , it was a name that implied honesty and fairness . the name was synonymous with kindness , with commitment , with generosity in the homes , the community centers , the churches , the charities he supported for years ... for all the years of his life . to the abbott family ... the name john abbott meant all that ... and one thing more -- absolute , unwavering love . he was the most loyal , loving parent anyone could ever ask for . [ jack remembering ] john : i always dreamed that when it was my time to move on , the company would be in your hands . my son would carry on for me . and knowing that you would be there to tend the garden that i planted ... then i could accept my life coming to an end much , much more and much easier .

[ scene_break ] carly : and what do you think that you are doing ? elizabeth : the dishwasher dropped a tray of glasses , so we 're short . bobbie told me to come down here and borrow some of yours . carly : well , next time ask me before you borrow them . elizabeth : carly ? carly ? are you ok ? elizabeth : you do n't look so good . are you sick ? carly : i 'm fine . just lost my balance . why do n't you just go upstairs ? take those glasses , ok , unless you 've broken them all when you dropped them . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : why do i bother ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : got more glasses , not that carly was gracious about lending them . courtney : well , she probably would 've appreciated being asked first . elizabeth : you know , you 're even starting to sound like her . maybe you 'd better go check on your new best friend because she almost took a header down the stairs . carly : hey . courtney : are you ok ? elizabeth just told me that you nearly fell . carly : i 'm fine . you did n't say anything , did you ? courtney : no , no , no , no . but are you ? i mean , have you found out yet ? carly : um -- uh , no , thanks . courtney : herbal tea . it 's supposed to be good for an inner ear infection , so why do n't i go get you some , ok ? elizabeth : oh , i 'll get it . courtney : do you have a fever ? carly : it 's morning sickness . courtney : you have taken a pregnancy test ? carly : no , i called my doctor , but her office called to reschedule . i 'm taking that as a sign . courtney : carly , you need to find out . i mean , if you are , you got to start taking vitamins and whatever -- carly : i know , i know , i know . but the timing is not great , and i think a part of me just does n't want to know just yet . courtney : did you tell sonny ? carly : yeah , i think he feels the same way . look , it 's what we want most -- really , we do -- but it 's also what we 're most afraid of . courtney : why ? carly : well , anything can go wrong . you know , one slip , i could fall down the stairs -- courtney : hey , so ? this time you 'll be so careful , you 'll look ridiculous . carly : something 's going on in sonny 's business right now . that 's why johnny 's here . and if i 'm pregnant , sonny is going to worry like crazy . courtney : hey , you know what -- for all you know , you could have the stomach flu , right ? carly : right , right . courtney : you do n't need to worry , unless maybe it is a baby , and then the sooner you find out , the sooner you can stop eating pizza and start drinking milk . carly : do you know that you sound just like your brother ? courtney : oh , great . great , there 's another positive , yeah . carly : it is . courtney : when all other attempts at communication fail , sonny and i can sit around and discuss your diet . carly : all right , you are right . i need to go take a pregnancy test and find out if this is for sure . but in the meantime , do n't say anything to anyone -- courtney : oh , i wo n't , i wo n't . carly : anyone , not even my mother . courtney : not a word , i promise . carly : thanks . so -- forget it . i got to go to work . courtney : you know , carly -- she 's just not feeling good . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : carly 's pregnant , is n't she ? [ scene_break ] jason : carly 's pregnant ? sonny : she had a dizzy spell , you know , but she has n't taken a pregnancy test yet . you know how much i want that . jason : yeah . sonny : you know , i want another child with carly more than anything , but the day i find out she could be pregnant , a hit man shows up in town . the timing could not be worse . probably with my name on the contract . we have to shut this guy down . otherwise , i got to send carly and michael away . jason : i know , but she 's going to fight you on this . [ scene_break ] sonny : well , if she fights me , she fights me . i mean , you know what -- she 'll be angry but she 'll be alive , my baby and michael will be alive . i have to protect the people i love . [ scene_break ] faith : i admit there are complications , but why should i pay more just because there 's some extra muscle around ? sam : corinthos has a very capable lieutenant who , out of loyalty , will spend the rest of his life tracking me down . which means , ultimately , i 'll have to take care of him , too , and i want to be paid for morgan in advance . faith : all right . i 'll get the extra money . sam : good . now , half of it has to be in my account , as i specified . i would like -- faith : i know , i know -- half in the account now , half in escrow . it will be . as it happens , my grandmother just passed away . sam : my condolences . [ scene_break ] faith : she left behind a substantial estate , and i am her sole beneficiary . i can afford to pay whatever it takes to get rid of sonny . [ scene_break ] jax : well , yeah , i happen to agree with you on that . you know , i 've always believed that that was true . skye : how do you know she 's a hooker ? coleman : she 's not a hooker , she 's a call girl . cheryl 's very expensive . skye : then how do you know her ? coleman : she worked at my club when she was in college , and a couple of my dancers still stay in touch with her . skye : oh , there 's no way jax would be going out with a hooker . somebody must be setting him up . i 'm going to take care of this right now . coleman : hey , whoa -- hey -- jax : right . skye : hello . cheryl : hi . jax : this is -- this is my ex - wife , skye quartermaine . this is -- skye : not who she says she is . cheryl 's been lying to you . she 's a call girl . [ scene_break ] jax : i know . [ scene_break ] faith : have you been going through my private papers ? ned : well , i know you 're too smart to leave anything where i might find them . faith : huh , you 're absolutely right . [ knock on door ] faith : well , hold that thought . who is it ? man : brett levinton . i 'm catherine flynn 's attorney . faith : i 'll be right with you . ahem . my grandmother was a very wealthy woman . from now on , i wo n't be needing your money . so you 'd better be nice to me or i wo n't have any reason to keep you around . mr. levinton . hey . mr. levinton : brett . faith : how are you ? now , i told your secretary a call would do . you did n't need to come over . brett : i wanted to offer my condolences in person . your grandmother was a very special lady . quite a character . faith : thank you . ned : ned ashton . brett : oh , brett levinton . ned : nice to meet you . [ scene_break ] faith : um , unfortunately , i still have some business matters to attend to . so at the risk of seeming pragmatic , how much am i inheriting ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : so why is it such a big secret ? courtney : what secret ? i mean , as far as i can see , you are either making this up or you 're jumping to conclusions , kind of like you did when you told sonny that jason and i were eloping . elizabeth : i made a logical assumption about carly . she did n't trip on the stairs , she had a dizzy spell . she was so nauseous , she was practically green , and then she refused coffee when that 's all she ever orders . courtney : is this what you do now , elizabeth , now that you ca n't play push- and - pull with jason ? you spy on my family and then make up stories about our personal lives ? elizabeth : come on , spare me the loyal sister act . you know you ca n't stand sonny , especially after he ordered jason to break up with you . courtney : jason and i did n't break up . elizabeth : oh , so you 're still seeing each other secretly ? courtney : look , i did n't push him away . i did n't play games with him , walking out of his life , vowing to never come back . jason and i love each other . you know , it 's sad how some people shut themselves off from that feeling . you know , they just walk around feeling envious and frustrated . they 're really not that much fun to be around . my shift is over . bye . elizabeth : i am so sick of her . i ca n't even ask a simple question without her spinning it into some evil plot . ric : well , what did you ask ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i just asked if carly 's pregnant . excuse me . [ scene_break ] sonny : i probably should 've said no when carly brought up wanting another child , but i did n't because i love her . and now she and the baby are in danger . do you see how it escalates ? i should 've said no for carly 's own good , just like you said no and broke up with courtney for her own good . jason : sonny , you want a baby , too . i know you . and i know it scares you because you 're afraid you 're going to lose it , but that 's no reason not to do something . every day you walk out of this penthouse and take a chance for money and for power . why not take a chance and have this baby that you and carly already love ? sonny : the difference is whose life is at risk . i 'm not in fear for my life . i do n't want to lose carly or another child . jason : then we need to find this guy and eliminate him before -- carly : hey . hey . jason , i 'm really glad you 're here . i 'm supposed to be meeting leticia and michael at the park so leticia could have the rest of the day off . do you think you could go for me instead ? sonny and i have something very important to discuss , and i do n't want michael walking in on it . you could play with him at the park or you could take him to the arcade or something like that . jason : you know i do n't mind , but i 'm doing a job right now . sonny : you know what , i 'm able to handle -- handle it from here . i 'd feel a lot better if michael was with you . you 'd be doing us a big favor . jason : ok . carly : thank you . jason : yeah . carly : leticia said they 'd be near the swings . he knows ? sonny : well , he 's your best friend . [ scene_break ] carly : courtney knows , too . i got a pregnancy test . i thought that we could find out if i 'm pregnant together . [ scene_break ] skye : have you lost your mind ? jax : i do n't think so . skye : look , i know that what happened with brenda really hurt -- jax : skye obviously feels the need to lecture me , so i 'll be up in a minute . cheryl : no problem . skye : brokenhearted , self - destructive , acting out -- believe me , i understand all of those things -- i do -- and i even understand sleeping with inappropriate strangers , but , jax , come on , look at you . you do n't need to hire your dates . [ scene_break ] jax : i want to hire my dates . it 's a simple business transaction , cash for pleasure . there 's no emotion involved . [ scene_break ] faith : my grandmother left me a ring ? this is it ? what about all the money ? brett : she gave it to a foundation for underprivileged children . faith : she told me that i was her only relative and that she would be giving everything to me . brett : well , mrs. flynn changed her mind . faith : and cut me out entirely ? brett : well , no , she gave you that ring , which she valued -- faith : when exactly did she cut me out ? brett : uh , shortly after new year 's . faith : why ? brett : well , your grandmother said she 'd had occasion to reassess your grandfather 's life , the damage that was done to and by the late marco flynn . catherine had come to believe that your grandfather 's money was cursed , that it destroyed her husband , cost her her only child , that it was blood money and you 'd be better off without it . faith : i will contest the will . brett : well , you can try , but it 's ironclad . your grandmother thought you 'd be scarred by this money . she was trying to protect you . ned : ok . i believe faith 's concerns have been answered . mr. levinton , thank you for coming over and explaining all this . brett : i 'm so sorry , again , about your loss . uh , my card , in case she has any other questions . ned : thank you . ahem . seems your grandmother 's death is n't working to your advantage as well as you 'd hoped . i guess you need my money after all . which means you have to continue thinking of ways to be nice to me . [ scene_break ] faith : well , i have n't got much use for nice . but i 'm willing to be bad for you . [ scene_break ] courtney : ok , rosie , come on , lay down . lay down . [ courtney laughs ] courtney : ok . come on , you 're supposed to make me look good for michael . here , shake . michael : jason ! jason : hey . michael : aunt courtney and i are training rosie . do you want to help ? jason : yeah , in a second . you know , i came to stay with you so leticia could have her afternoon off . i 'll get michael home . leticia : all right , i 'll be back by 8 : 00 . jason : max . you know what , you can take off . just call in and see if benny needs you . max : all right . michael : we can still play ? we can still play ? we 'll get to play , right ? courtney : you know , rosie and i , we were just walking and we ran into -- into leticia and michael and max . i can take her and go if you want . michael : no , i 'm supposed to teach rosie how to roll over , remember ? jason : all right , all right , you can work with rosie on training , ok ? just stay where i can see you . michael : ok . come on , rosie . come on , girl . courtney : you know , rosie 's the first dog i ever got to keep . i found a dog once , hanging around the schoolyard , and my mom would n't let me keep her . she sent her to the pound . and one time we were outside a grocery store and these people had a litter of puppies , and i took one home and i kept it in my room for , like , three days before my mom found it . and she took that one to the pound , too . jason : why did n't your mom want you to have a dog ? courtney : well , i guess she just figured it was too much work . i love my mom , you know , but sometimes she gets caught up in what she wants and how she 's going to get it . she does n't make allowances for the good things that do n't cost money , you know ? like the way it feels when you open a door and someone 's waiting for you . [ rosie barks ] jason : rosie pays more attention to michael than she ever did to me . courtney : i think carly and sonny are going to have to get michael a dog . jason : it 's up to sonny , i guess , huh ? courtney : yeah . i guess everything 's up to sonny , right ? who gets to be happy , who does n't ? who gets to be with the person they love -- jason : courtney , stop blaming sonny for my decision . i 'm doing what 's right for you . and i believe , in the end , it 's going to be right for me , too . courtney : well , as long as you 've got it figured out , could you -- could you explain to me how i 'm supposed to stop missing you ? how i 'm just supposed to stop thinking about you , how i 'm supposed to stop hating every minute we 're apart because i know in my heart that it does n't have to be this way ? have you figured out how to stop loving me , jason ? when you go home tonight , you wo n't miss me at all ? god , why -- why are you still doing this ? why do you have to hurt both of us ? [ scene_break ] michael : aunt courtney , what 's wrong ? why are you making her cry ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : you want some coffee or something ? ric : yeah . yeah , sure . you know , that was quite a bomb you dropped about carly . what makes you think that she 's pregnant ? elizabeth : oh , she had a dizzy spell on her way down to the cellar , and then she ordered herbal tea instead of her usual caffeine fix . carly and courtney were doing a bunch of whispering . i do n't see what the big deal is . ric : well , do sonny and carly want to have more children ? elizabeth : well , that 's how they got together in the first place . carly and sonny could n't stand each other until he got her pregnant and forced her to move in with him . ric : really ? elizabeth : mm - hmm . ric : well , if -- if carly is pregnant and she wants to keep it a secret , then i 'm sure it 's because she wants to make sure it 's a viable pregnancy before she makes the announcement . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : yeah . yeah , you 're right . you tend to see carly in a more sympathetic light than i do . i forget sometimes that the two of you are close . [ scene_break ] sonny : it 's time . carly : uh , let 's just give it one more minute just so we can be certain , ok ? sonny : no , i think , you know , we 've -- we 've waited longer than we need to . just check it out . then maybe all our worries are for nothing , you know ? carly : ok . carly : you sure ? ok . carly : it 's positive . sonny : you 're pregnant ? we 're having a baby ? carly : wow . sonny : you ok ? carly : yeah . i have waited for this moment , i have prayed for it , and now that it 's happened , i -- sonny : you do n't want the baby ? carly : of course i want the baby . i love it already . it 's just that -- look , i can see that you 're as scared as you are happy , sonny . i do n't know how to make this easier on you . sonny : no , i 'm just -- i 'm being an idiot , that 's all . you know how i am . i do n't want to -- i 'm afraid to have a child because i 'm afraid to lose it . but you 're pregnant . the baby 's -- the baby 's inside of you . this is not a wish or a hope , this is a fact , so i -- it 's my job to take care -- it 's my job to take care of you and the baby and make sure that this child is loved and wanted and welcome . and if i 'm afraid , it 's stupid , you know ? does n't matter , you know ? the only thing that matters is our baby and you . carly : right . sonny : feeling all right ? carly : yeah . i 'm fine . i got a little dizzy today , though , on the cellar stairs . sonny : ok , sit down . i want you to be careful . i want you to take it easy . lansing can run the club until the baby comes . carly : oh , no . ric is a lawyer , ok , he 's not a manager . it 's my place . i will run it . sonny : i -- i 'm just telling you , i want you to take it easy . carly : sonny , we need to make a deal right now . you can watch everything i eat , you can cook me amazing meals chock full of vegetables and nutrients and vitamins and all that stuff . you can watch how much i eat . you can not turn me into an invalid . i 'm not helpless . i 'm pregnant . ok ? is this a deal ? sonny : i 'm still going to watch you closely . i 'm just going make sure you do n't overtire , you know what i mean ? carly : i promise you i will be careful . sonny : one more condition . carly : what ? sonny : we do n't tell anybody yet . carly : well , courtney and jason already know . sonny : no , that 's fine , but i got -- ahem -- i got a current business situation that needs to be handled before we tell the whole world that we 're expecting another child . what 's wrong ? [ scene_break ] carly : i do n't know , maybe i 'm just -- i think i 'm a little scared , too . you know , we 've waited so long for this baby . i just do n't want anything to go wrong . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : so what 's your secret with carly ? ric : my secret ? elizabeth : how do i keep her from driving me crazy since her club is downstairs and she 's going to be in here all the time ? ric : look , you and i have obviously had vastly different experiences with carly . as far as i know , she 's fiercely loyal to sonny . she -- she 's obviously head - over - heels in love with him . it just -- it strikes me very strange that their marriage started out as a marriage of convenience . elizabeth : yeah , well , i do n't know all the details , but the short version is that she and jason were involved at one time . ric : right . elizabeth : and then she got angry , wound up in bed with sonny . jason was pretty hurt , so he left town for a while . then carly ends up pregnant . she and sonny move in together , they were going to get married , and then she had a fight with a.j . and fell down a flight of stairs and she miscarried . sonny was -- god , he was devastated . ric : i knew you and sonny were friends , but i did n't realize you were so close . elizabeth : well , i happened to be in the e.r . the night that she was brought in with her miscarriage . it was like sonny 's heart had been torn out . you know , that baby meant everything to him . ric : yeah , which would explain why she wants to keep the whole thing a secret . she wants to make sure everything 's ok . elizabeth : yeah , and i can respect that . if she and sonny are expecting , then they should be able to tell the world when they 're ready . [ scene_break ] ric : sure . i 'll just make sure that i 'm extra careful around carly on the stairs . [ scene_break ] courtney : it 's ok , michael . my eyes are just tearing up because of the wind . jason : courtney and i were just talking about something that made her sad . i 'm very sorry for that . i would never want to hurt courtney . she 's a very special person . she deserves to have a great life and to be happy , and i do n't want to take that away from her . michael : take back what you said . jason : buddy , i ca n't . michael : then promise never to say it again . courtney : michael , it 's ok , it 's ok . i know that jason would never deliberately be cruel or hurtful . i know that he 's only looking out for what 's best for me . i 'm just trusting that he 'll realize that what i want is what 's best for me and it 's the only thing that 'll make me happy . michael : i do n't understand . courtney : well , that 's probably good anyway because it 's all grown - up mushy stuff . listen , sweetie , i have to get going , so you 're going to have to say good - bye to rosie , ok ? come here , rosie ! come on , girl ! [ rosie barks ] courtney : come here . yeah . jason : put the leash on . courtney : yeah . she 's feisty , huh ? michael : yeah . courtney : all right , sweetie , i 'll see you soon , ok ? michael : bye , rosie . courtney : give me a kiss . michael : are n't you going to kiss jason , too ? jason : uh , you know what -- courtney : sure . i love you . come on , girl . come on . michael : bye , rosie . [ scene_break ] courtney : bye , michael . [ scene_break ] skye : i always thought you were so fearless . why would you choose to feel nothing ? jax : are n't you supposed to be enjoying this ? skye : suppose i should feel vindicated . i did tell you that brenda would cost you everything , and i was right . but believe it or not , jax , i never really wanted you to get hurt , and i -- i do n't want to see you give up on life . jax : as far as i 'm concerned , i 'm , you know , getting back into life . see , when i was in love , i made a lot of foolish choices . all the things that i regret doing was because i was in love . so i am better off without it . skye : but to give up on love -- that 's giving up on life . even i can see that . jax : you ever consider how much better off you would 've been if i 'd just left you in your shell ? i made you believe in love and it almost destroyed you . i kept telling you that love is the answer . well , i was wrong because it is n't . love is a rare , fleeting thing that leaves your mind clouded , and then it passes . and then it leaves your life in a mess . skye : ok . ok , i get it . you 're cynical now . you do n't give a damn . well , look at me -- i am the expert at playing jaded . i know all the tricks in the world to make yourself believe that you just do n't give a damn , but i 'm telling you this -- there is a place inside of you that , when you 're ready to acknowledge it , it means you 're devastated . jax : perhaps i 've just come to my senses . skye : all right . all right , jax , look , i 'm going to make you a deal here . i 'm going to make you an offer . when you are ready to admit that you 're devastated , that you just want someone to listen to you , i will be there . and , i mean , no strings attached . i wo n't give it any significance beyond the moment . it 'll just -- it 'll just be a nod to what we used to be . jax : look , i appreciate your offer , skye , but i 'm not going to take you up on it . i 'm fine the way i am . jax : now , if you 'll excuse me . skye : where 'd you go ? coleman : i was checking out this museum around the corner . i just do n't get modern art , man , i 'm telling you . waiter : vodka on the rocks ? and something for you ? coleman : no , thank you . so , what happened to jax ? skye : oh . he went upstairs to see that woman cheryl . coleman : i see . well , you know , if you 're done soaking up the ambiance , why do n't we slide on back to jake 's ? maybe we can -- i do n't know -- shoot a game of pool or something . skye : you know , they say the road to hell is paved with good intentions . personally , i think hell is a place you choose to go , and no one 's going to pull you out until you 're ready to leave . [ scene_break ] skye : let 's go find that pool table , shall we ? [ scene_break ] ned : do n't get too comfortable . i have to go home . even though i have a full- time nanny , i want to be there to put kristina down for the night . faith : well , let me ask you this -- is this not one of the more rewarding partnerships you 've been involved in ? ned : it has its perks . faith : hmm . ok , so we 've had a few disagreements , but -- ahem -- you have to admit i have been useful in your campaign against sonny . ned : so what is this leading to ? faith : hmm , the next step . it 's going to be expensive . ned : oh . faith : i need $ 1 million . [ scene_break ] ned : no problem -- provided you tell me what i 'm paying for . because unless i know exactly what this next step is , you 're not going to get one dime from me . not one dime . [ scene_break ] jason : all right , sonny and your mom left for the club . you want some help with this ? michael : ok . jason : yeah , ok . that 's a pretty cool jacket . what do you want to do for dinner ? michael : pizza . jason : pizza ? sonny lets you keep pizza in the freezer ? michael : yeah , but me and mom only get to eat it once a week . can you help me write a letter to ask for a dog ? jason : a dog , huh ? you know , dogs are a lot of work . michael : rosie is n't . jason : well , courtney -- she does a lot to take care of rosie . i mean , sometimes she has to walk her and feed her and play with her when she does n't feel like it . michael : aunt courtney 's nice . jason : yeah . michael : is that why you never want to hurt her and always make her happy ? jason : yeah . [ scene_break ] michael : does that mean you 're in love with aunt courtney ? [ scene_break ] carly : do n't make a big deal or anything , but we do n't want anyone to know . it 's official -- we 're having a baby . courtney : oh , i am so excited ! how do you feel ? carly : oh , i feel great right now . but , you know , i do need to go talk to the bartender . i 'll be back , ok ? courtney : ok . look , i 'm really happy for you . i know that you and carly really wanted this . sonny : yeah . thanks . you seem a little happier today . courtney : yeah , well , i know that jason wo n't come back to me overnight , but he will . we love each other . sonny : courtney , i 'm not -- courtney : look , i do n't want to fight with you , sonny , i really do n't . i just want to be happy for you , ok ? sonny : ok . all right . see you . courtney : bye . [ phone rings ] sonny : hello ? benny . yeah , hey . you working late ? i do n't want you pushing yourself , you know ? i 'm glad you 're back at work . benny : no , no , my doctor 's given me the ok . yeah , jason asked me to check out catherine flynn 's estate . it turns out that catherine inherited a small fortune from her husband and she turned it into a large fortune . sonny : did she leave it all to faith ? benny : well , we wo n't know about that until the will 's in probate , but , you know , faith was her only relative , and i talked to a couple of people who said they heard catherine refer to faith as her sole beneficiary . [ scene_break ] sonny : if faith has got money and she does n't need ned 's , she 's going to come after me her way , which means the potential for violence . [ scene_break ] ric : hey , partner . look -- we 're above our projections so far . and remember that winery i was telling you all about ? we just got a case of their new merlot in , and wait till you taste it . carly : oh . i need to have a clear head when i look at these numbers , so i 'm going to have water . ric : no , no , no , no . here , just take a sip , all right ? you can not pass -- oh , you ca n't pass this up . go ahead . carly : here you are , compliments of the management . sam : thank you . carly : you 're welcome . and whether you like it or you do n't , tell him . here , just leave it on my desk . i 'll look at it later . ric : mm - hmm .

[ scene_break ] coleman : that lady your ex is with is an a - list call girl . [ scene_break ] jason : anyone here ? sonny : no , they 're all out . let 's hear it . this shooter in town for me ? jason : so far we ca n't get confirmation . i mean , we know this guy 's in town , but no one even knows what he looks like . sonny : who paid the hit man ? jason : it could be anyone -- tagliati , one of the other families -- sonny : faith rosco ? jason : yes , it could be faith , but this guy 's expensive . unless ned is going to bankroll him -- sonny : ned ashton wants me to rot in hell , but he does n't want anything to do with murder . faith 's grandmother just died , all right ? her husband made a lot of money once . maybe she held on to it . have benny check that out . jason : ok . sonny : what about the description of the hit man ? jason : we have nothing on this guy except for his name -- sam . and he works out of los angeles , he gets paid by wire transfer . nobody has seen this guy 's face . [ scene_break ] sonny : so you 're telling me there 's nothing i can do about this , that i have to run and wait and pray that they come to kill me instead of my pregnant wife ? [ scene_break ] sam : corinthos is nearly impossible to get to . the deal 's off . as per the contract , half the fee will be refunded , the other half will cover compensation for this waste of my time . faith : i thought you were supposed to be the best . sam : i am . that 's why i know this job is n't worth it to me . you 've already attacked sonny once before . his people are guarding him 24/7 . it 's going to take a whole lot of extra planning . faith : then i 'll pay for extra planning . how much ? sam : what you 've wired to my account -- i 'll need another identical deposit . faith : why so much , i mean , for one person ? killing sonny corinthos should n't cost double your regular rate . [ scene_break ] sam : if you want sonny corinthos eliminated , it 's going to cost you . [ scene_break ] carly : and what do you think that you are doing ? elizabeth : the dishwasher dropped a tray of glasses , so we 're short . bobbie told me to come down here and borrow some of yours . carly : well , next time ask me before you borrow them . elizabeth : carly ? carly ? are you ok ? elizabeth : you do n't look so good . are you sick ? carly : i 'm fine . just lost my balance . why do n't you just go upstairs ? take those glasses , ok , unless you 've broken them all when you dropped them . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : why do i bother ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : got more glasses , not that carly was gracious about lending them . courtney : well , she probably would 've appreciated being asked first . elizabeth : you know , you 're even starting to sound like her . maybe you 'd better go check on your new best friend because she almost took a header down the stairs . carly : hey . courtney : are you ok ? elizabeth just told me that you nearly fell . carly : i 'm fine . you did n't say anything , did you ? courtney : no , no , no , no . but are you ? i mean , have you found out yet ? carly : um -- uh , no , thanks . courtney : herbal tea . it 's supposed to be good for an inner ear infection , so why do n't i go get you some , ok ? elizabeth : oh , i 'll get it . courtney : do you have a fever ? carly : it 's morning sickness . courtney : you have taken a pregnancy test ? carly : no , i called my doctor , but her office called to reschedule . i 'm taking that as a sign . courtney : carly , you need to find out . i mean , if you are , you got to start taking vitamins and whatever -- carly : i know , i know , i know . but the timing is not great , and i think a part of me just does n't want to know just yet . courtney : did you tell sonny ? carly : yeah , i think he feels the same way . look , it 's what we want most -- really , we do -- but it 's also what we 're most afraid of . courtney : why ? carly : well , anything can go wrong . you know , one slip , i could fall down the stairs -- courtney : hey , so ? this time you 'll be so careful , you 'll look ridiculous . carly : something 's going on in sonny 's business right now . that 's why johnny 's here . and if i 'm pregnant , sonny is going to worry like crazy . courtney : hey , you know what -- for all you know , you could have the stomach flu , right ? carly : right , right . courtney : you do n't need to worry , unless maybe it is a baby , and then the sooner you find out , the sooner you can stop eating pizza and start drinking milk . carly : do you know that you sound just like your brother ? courtney : oh , great . great , there 's another positive , yeah . carly : it is . courtney : when all other attempts at communication fail , sonny and i can sit around and discuss your diet . carly : all right , you are right . i need to go take a pregnancy test and find out if this is for sure . but in the meantime , do n't say anything to anyone -- courtney : oh , i wo n't , i wo n't . carly : anyone , not even my mother . courtney : not a word , i promise . carly : thanks . so -- forget it . i got to go to work . courtney : you know , carly -- she 's just not feeling good . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : carly 's pregnant , is n't she ? [ scene_break ] jason : carly 's pregnant ? sonny : she had a dizzy spell , you know , but she has n't taken a pregnancy test yet . you know how much i want that . jason : yeah . sonny : you know , i want another child with carly more than anything , but the day i find out she could be pregnant , a hit man shows up in town . the timing could not be worse . probably with my name on the contract . we have to shut this guy down . otherwise , i got to send carly and michael away . jason : i know , but she 's going to fight you on this . [ scene_break ] sonny : well , if she fights me , she fights me . i mean , you know what -- she 'll be angry but she 'll be alive , my baby and michael will be alive . i have to protect the people i love . [ scene_break ] faith : i admit there are complications , but why should i pay more just because there 's some extra muscle around ? sam : corinthos has a very capable lieutenant who , out of loyalty , will spend the rest of his life tracking me down . which means , ultimately , i 'll have to take care of him , too , and i want to be paid for morgan in advance . faith : all right . i 'll get the extra money . sam : good . now , half of it has to be in my account , as i specified . i would like -- faith : i know , i know -- half in the account now , half in escrow . it will be . as it happens , my grandmother just passed away . sam : my condolences . [ scene_break ] faith : she left behind a substantial estate , and i am her sole beneficiary . i can afford to pay whatever it takes to get rid of sonny . [ scene_break ] jax : well , yeah , i happen to agree with you on that . you know , i 've always believed that that was true . skye : how do you know she 's a hooker ? coleman : she 's not a hooker , she 's a call girl . cheryl 's very expensive . skye : then how do you know her ? coleman : she worked at my club when she was in college , and a couple of my dancers still stay in touch with her . skye : oh , there 's no way jax would be going out with a hooker . somebody must be setting him up . i 'm going to take care of this right now . coleman : hey , whoa -- hey -- jax : right . skye : hello . cheryl : hi . jax : this is -- this is my ex - wife , skye quartermaine . this is -- skye : not who she says she is . cheryl 's been lying to you . she 's a call girl . [ scene_break ] jax : i know . [ scene_break ] faith : have you been going through my private papers ? ned : well , i know you 're too smart to leave anything where i might find them . faith : huh , you 're absolutely right . [ knock on door ] faith : well , hold that thought . who is it ? man : brett levinton . i 'm catherine flynn 's attorney . faith : i 'll be right with you . ahem . my grandmother was a very wealthy woman . from now on , i wo n't be needing your money . so you 'd better be nice to me or i wo n't have any reason to keep you around . mr. levinton . hey . mr. levinton : brett . faith : how are you ? now , i told your secretary a call would do . you did n't need to come over . brett : i wanted to offer my condolences in person . your grandmother was a very special lady . quite a character . faith : thank you . ned : ned ashton . brett : oh , brett levinton . ned : nice to meet you . [ scene_break ] faith : um , unfortunately , i still have some business matters to attend to . so at the risk of seeming pragmatic , how much am i inheriting ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : so why is it such a big secret ? courtney : what secret ? i mean , as far as i can see , you are either making this up or you 're jumping to conclusions , kind of like you did when you told sonny that jason and i were eloping . elizabeth : i made a logical assumption about carly . she did n't trip on the stairs , she had a dizzy spell . she was so nauseous , she was practically green , and then she refused coffee when that 's all she ever orders . courtney : is this what you do now , elizabeth , now that you ca n't play push- and - pull with jason ? you spy on my family and then make up stories about our personal lives ? elizabeth : come on , spare me the loyal sister act . you know you ca n't stand sonny , especially after he ordered jason to break up with you . courtney : jason and i did n't break up . elizabeth : oh , so you 're still seeing each other secretly ? courtney : look , i did n't push him away . i did n't play games with him , walking out of his life , vowing to never come back . jason and i love each other . you know , it 's sad how some people shut themselves off from that feeling . you know , they just walk around feeling envious and frustrated . they 're really not that much fun to be around . my shift is over . bye . elizabeth : i am so sick of her . i ca n't even ask a simple question without her spinning it into some evil plot . ric : well , what did you ask ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i just asked if carly 's pregnant . excuse me . [ scene_break ] sonny : i probably should 've said no when carly brought up wanting another child , but i did n't because i love her . and now she and the baby are in danger . do you see how it escalates ? i should 've said no for carly 's own good , just like you said no and broke up with courtney for her own good . jason : sonny , you want a baby , too . i know you . and i know it scares you because you 're afraid you 're going to lose it , but that 's no reason not to do something . every day you walk out of this penthouse and take a chance for money and for power . why not take a chance and have this baby that you and carly already love ? sonny : the difference is whose life is at risk . i 'm not in fear for my life . i do n't want to lose carly or another child . jason : then we need to find this guy and eliminate him before -- carly : hey . hey . jason , i 'm really glad you 're here . i 'm supposed to be meeting leticia and michael at the park so leticia could have the rest of the day off . do you think you could go for me instead ? sonny and i have something very important to discuss , and i do n't want michael walking in on it . you could play with him at the park or you could take him to the arcade or something like that . jason : you know i do n't mind , but i 'm doing a job right now . sonny : you know what , i 'm able to handle -- handle it from here . i 'd feel a lot better if michael was with you . you 'd be doing us a big favor . jason : ok . carly : thank you . jason : yeah . carly : leticia said they 'd be near the swings . he knows ? sonny : well , he 's your best friend . [ scene_break ] carly : courtney knows , too . i got a pregnancy test . i thought that we could find out if i 'm pregnant together . [ scene_break ] skye : have you lost your mind ? jax : i do n't think so . skye : look , i know that what happened with brenda really hurt -- jax : skye obviously feels the need to lecture me , so i 'll be up in a minute . cheryl : no problem . skye : brokenhearted , self - destructive , acting out -- believe me , i understand all of those things -- i do -- and i even understand sleeping with inappropriate strangers , but , jax , come on , look at you . you do n't need to hire your dates . [ scene_break ] jax : i want to hire my dates . it 's a simple business transaction , cash for pleasure . there 's no emotion involved . [ scene_break ] faith : my grandmother left me a ring ? this is it ? what about all the money ? brett : she gave it to a foundation for underprivileged children . faith : she told me that i was her only relative and that she would be giving everything to me . brett : well , mrs. flynn changed her mind . faith : and cut me out entirely ? brett : well , no , she gave you that ring , which she valued -- faith : when exactly did she cut me out ? brett : uh , shortly after new year 's . faith : why ? brett : well , your grandmother said she 'd had occasion to reassess your grandfather 's life , the damage that was done to and by the late marco flynn . catherine had come to believe that your grandfather 's money was cursed , that it destroyed her husband , cost her her only child , that it was blood money and you 'd be better off without it . faith : i will contest the will . brett : well , you can try , but it 's ironclad . your grandmother thought you 'd be scarred by this money . she was trying to protect you . ned : ok . i believe faith 's concerns have been answered . mr. levinton , thank you for coming over and explaining all this . brett : i 'm so sorry , again , about your loss . uh , my card , in case she has any other questions . ned : thank you . ahem . seems your grandmother 's death is n't working to your advantage as well as you 'd hoped . i guess you need my money after all . which means you have to continue thinking of ways to be nice to me . [ scene_break ] faith : well , i have n't got much use for nice . but i 'm willing to be bad for you . [ scene_break ] courtney : ok , rosie , come on , lay down . lay down . [ courtney laughs ] courtney : ok . come on , you 're supposed to make me look good for michael . here , shake . michael : jason ! jason : hey . michael : aunt courtney and i are training rosie . do you want to help ? jason : yeah , in a second . you know , i came to stay with you so leticia could have her afternoon off . i 'll get michael home . leticia : all right , i 'll be back by 8 : 00 . jason : max . you know what , you can take off . just call in and see if benny needs you . max : all right . michael : we can still play ? we can still play ? we 'll get to play , right ? courtney : you know , rosie and i , we were just walking and we ran into -- into leticia and michael and max . i can take her and go if you want . michael : no , i 'm supposed to teach rosie how to roll over , remember ? jason : all right , all right , you can work with rosie on training , ok ? just stay where i can see you . michael : ok . come on , rosie . come on , girl . courtney : you know , rosie 's the first dog i ever got to keep . i found a dog once , hanging around the schoolyard , and my mom would n't let me keep her . she sent her to the pound . and one time we were outside a grocery store and these people had a litter of puppies , and i took one home and i kept it in my room for , like , three days before my mom found it . and she took that one to the pound , too . jason : why did n't your mom want you to have a dog ? courtney : well , i guess she just figured it was too much work . i love my mom , you know , but sometimes she gets caught up in what she wants and how she 's going to get it . she does n't make allowances for the good things that do n't cost money , you know ? like the way it feels when you open a door and someone 's waiting for you . [ rosie barks ] jason : rosie pays more attention to michael than she ever did to me . courtney : i think carly and sonny are going to have to get michael a dog . jason : it 's up to sonny , i guess , huh ? courtney : yeah . i guess everything 's up to sonny , right ? who gets to be happy , who does n't ? who gets to be with the person they love -- jason : courtney , stop blaming sonny for my decision . i 'm doing what 's right for you . and i believe , in the end , it 's going to be right for me , too . courtney : well , as long as you 've got it figured out , could you -- could you explain to me how i 'm supposed to stop missing you ? how i 'm just supposed to stop thinking about you , how i 'm supposed to stop hating every minute we 're apart because i know in my heart that it does n't have to be this way ? have you figured out how to stop loving me , jason ? when you go home tonight , you wo n't miss me at all ? god , why -- why are you still doing this ? why do you have to hurt both of us ? [ scene_break ] michael : aunt courtney , what 's wrong ? why are you making her cry ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : you want some coffee or something ? ric : yeah . yeah , sure . you know , that was quite a bomb you dropped about carly . what makes you think that she 's pregnant ? elizabeth : oh , she had a dizzy spell on her way down to the cellar , and then she ordered herbal tea instead of her usual caffeine fix . carly and courtney were doing a bunch of whispering . i do n't see what the big deal is . ric : well , do sonny and carly want to have more children ? elizabeth : well , that 's how they got together in the first place . carly and sonny could n't stand each other until he got her pregnant and forced her to move in with him . ric : really ? elizabeth : mm - hmm . ric : well , if -- if carly is pregnant and she wants to keep it a secret , then i 'm sure it 's because she wants to make sure it 's a viable pregnancy before she makes the announcement . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : yeah . yeah , you 're right . you tend to see carly in a more sympathetic light than i do . i forget sometimes that the two of you are close . [ scene_break ] sonny : it 's time . carly : uh , let 's just give it one more minute just so we can be certain , ok ? sonny : no , i think , you know , we 've -- we 've waited longer than we need to . just check it out . then maybe all our worries are for nothing , you know ? carly : ok . carly : you sure ? ok . carly : it 's positive . sonny : you 're pregnant ? we 're having a baby ? carly : wow . sonny : you ok ? carly : yeah . i have waited for this moment , i have prayed for it , and now that it 's happened , i -- sonny : you do n't want the baby ? carly : of course i want the baby . i love it already . it 's just that -- look , i can see that you 're as scared as you are happy , sonny . i do n't know how to make this easier on you . sonny : no , i 'm just -- i 'm being an idiot , that 's all . you know how i am . i do n't want to -- i 'm afraid to have a child because i 'm afraid to lose it . but you 're pregnant . the baby 's -- the baby 's inside of you . this is not a wish or a hope , this is a fact , so i -- it 's my job to take care -- it 's my job to take care of you and the baby and make sure that this child is loved and wanted and welcome . and if i 'm afraid , it 's stupid , you know ? does n't matter , you know ? the only thing that matters is our baby and you . carly : right . sonny : feeling all right ? carly : yeah . i 'm fine . i got a little dizzy today , though , on the cellar stairs . sonny : ok , sit down . i want you to be careful . i want you to take it easy . lansing can run the club until the baby comes . carly : oh , no . ric is a lawyer , ok , he 's not a manager . it 's my place . i will run it . sonny : i -- i 'm just telling you , i want you to take it easy . carly : sonny , we need to make a deal right now . you can watch everything i eat , you can cook me amazing meals chock full of vegetables and nutrients and vitamins and all that stuff . you can watch how much i eat . you can not turn me into an invalid . i 'm not helpless . i 'm pregnant . ok ? is this a deal ? sonny : i 'm still going to watch you closely . i 'm just going make sure you do n't overtire , you know what i mean ? carly : i promise you i will be careful . sonny : one more condition . carly : what ? sonny : we do n't tell anybody yet . carly : well , courtney and jason already know . sonny : no , that 's fine , but i got -- ahem -- i got a current business situation that needs to be handled before we tell the whole world that we 're expecting another child . what 's wrong ? [ scene_break ] carly : i do n't know , maybe i 'm just -- i think i 'm a little scared , too . you know , we 've waited so long for this baby . i just do n't want anything to go wrong . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : so what 's your secret with carly ? ric : my secret ? elizabeth : how do i keep her from driving me crazy since her club is downstairs and she 's going to be in here all the time ? ric : look , you and i have obviously had vastly different experiences with carly . as far as i know , she 's fiercely loyal to sonny . she -- she 's obviously head - over - heels in love with him . it just -- it strikes me very strange that their marriage started out as a marriage of convenience . elizabeth : yeah , well , i do n't know all the details , but the short version is that she and jason were involved at one time . ric : right . elizabeth : and then she got angry , wound up in bed with sonny . jason was pretty hurt , so he left town for a while . then carly ends up pregnant . she and sonny move in together , they were going to get married , and then she had a fight with a.j . and fell down a flight of stairs and she miscarried . sonny was -- god , he was devastated . ric : i knew you and sonny were friends , but i did n't realize you were so close . elizabeth : well , i happened to be in the e.r . the night that she was brought in with her miscarriage . it was like sonny 's heart had been torn out . you know , that baby meant everything to him . ric : yeah , which would explain why she wants to keep the whole thing a secret . she wants to make sure everything 's ok . elizabeth : yeah , and i can respect that . if she and sonny are expecting , then they should be able to tell the world when they 're ready . [ scene_break ] ric : sure . i 'll just make sure that i 'm extra careful around carly on the stairs . [ scene_break ] courtney : it 's ok , michael . my eyes are just tearing up because of the wind . jason : courtney and i were just talking about something that made her sad . i 'm very sorry for that . i would never want to hurt courtney . she 's a very special person . she deserves to have a great life and to be happy , and i do n't want to take that away from her . michael : take back what you said . jason : buddy , i ca n't . michael : then promise never to say it again . courtney : michael , it 's ok , it 's ok . i know that jason would never deliberately be cruel or hurtful . i know that he 's only looking out for what 's best for me . i 'm just trusting that he 'll realize that what i want is what 's best for me and it 's the only thing that 'll make me happy . michael : i do n't understand . courtney : well , that 's probably good anyway because it 's all grown - up mushy stuff . listen , sweetie , i have to get going , so you 're going to have to say good - bye to rosie , ok ? come here , rosie ! come on , girl ! [ rosie barks ] courtney : come here . yeah . jason : put the leash on . courtney : yeah . she 's feisty , huh ? michael : yeah . courtney : all right , sweetie , i 'll see you soon , ok ? michael : bye , rosie . courtney : give me a kiss . michael : are n't you going to kiss jason , too ? jason : uh , you know what -- courtney : sure . i love you . come on , girl . come on . michael : bye , rosie . [ scene_break ] courtney : bye , michael . [ scene_break ] skye : i always thought you were so fearless . why would you choose to feel nothing ? jax : are n't you supposed to be enjoying this ? skye : suppose i should feel vindicated . i did tell you that brenda would cost you everything , and i was right . but believe it or not , jax , i never really wanted you to get hurt , and i -- i do n't want to see you give up on life . jax : as far as i 'm concerned , i 'm , you know , getting back into life . see , when i was in love , i made a lot of foolish choices . all the things that i regret doing was because i was in love . so i am better off without it . skye : but to give up on love -- that 's giving up on life . even i can see that . jax : you ever consider how much better off you would 've been if i 'd just left you in your shell ? i made you believe in love and it almost destroyed you . i kept telling you that love is the answer . well , i was wrong because it is n't . love is a rare , fleeting thing that leaves your mind clouded , and then it passes . and then it leaves your life in a mess . skye : ok . ok , i get it . you 're cynical now . you do n't give a damn . well , look at me -- i am the expert at playing jaded . i know all the tricks in the world to make yourself believe that you just do n't give a damn , but i 'm telling you this -- there is a place inside of you that , when you 're ready to acknowledge it , it means you 're devastated . jax : perhaps i 've just come to my senses . skye : all right . all right , jax , look , i 'm going to make you a deal here . i 'm going to make you an offer . when you are ready to admit that you 're devastated , that you just want someone to listen to you , i will be there . and , i mean , no strings attached . i wo n't give it any significance beyond the moment . it 'll just -- it 'll just be a nod to what we used to be . jax : look , i appreciate your offer , skye , but i 'm not going to take you up on it . i 'm fine the way i am . jax : now , if you 'll excuse me . skye : where 'd you go ? coleman : i was checking out this museum around the corner . i just do n't get modern art , man , i 'm telling you . waiter : vodka on the rocks ? and something for you ? coleman : no , thank you . so , what happened to jax ? skye : oh . he went upstairs to see that woman cheryl . coleman : i see . well , you know , if you 're done soaking up the ambiance , why do n't we slide on back to jake 's ? maybe we can -- i do n't know -- shoot a game of pool or something . skye : you know , they say the road to hell is paved with good intentions . personally , i think hell is a place you choose to go , and no one 's going to pull you out until you 're ready to leave .

[ scene_break ] maxie : so , back before i knew you were pretending to be ask man landers , i asked spinelli to do some digging for me and find out his real identity . fortunately , spinelli has not had time for that investigation . nathan : oh . so , spinelli still does n't know ? maxie : no , and as long we keep him away from the book signing , he never will , although if we had told him the truth , it probably would n't have been the worst thing in the world . nathan : i know we can trust the guy , but , you know , the more people that know ... maxie : you 're right . we do n't need to involve him . but if we want my plan to work , we got to go now .

[ scene_break ] carly : nelle did cause trouble for my family . sharon : by any chance , was she involved with your son before he died ? carly : no . they barely knew each other . what happened with nelle and my family -- well , actually , it was a misunderstanding . sharon : i 'm sure that 's exactly what she wanted you to think . carly : the misunderstanding was legitimately not her fault . now , how she handled it -- well , that 's a different story . sharon : i just hope nelle never takes anything precious from you or from the people you love the way she did from me and my mine . bobbie : so , sweetheart , i will call you later . carly : yes . bobbie : okay ? carly : yes , okay . bobbie : all right . sharon , it was very good to meet you . take care . sharon : you , too . carly : i want to get back to why you contacted me . i know some of the details that surround your brother 's passing . i know that your parents and the police suspect nelle . sharon : we do , for good reason . carly : okay , you know , nelle is not my favorite person , or , otherwise , i would n't have agreed to meet with you . but she never took anything from me -- i mean , not a post - it , not a paper clip . and she had every opportunity . sharon : did she lie to you ? carly : like a rug . every word our of her mouth to my family was a lie from the second she came to town until ... we discovered why . sharon : that `` legitimate `` misunderstanding you mentioned ? do n't underestimate her , ms. corinthos . the most important thing you need to know about janelle , the place that she is most dangerous , is her talent for deceit -- not just the lies but the way she used little tricks to worm her way in before striking . you need to know what led up to my brother 's death and how janelle was ultimately able to get away with murder .

[ scene_break ] michael : oh . oh , damn it . nelle : what is it ? michael : my grandmother is being honored at the hospital for her many years of service . they 're throwing this little party to celebrate . it 's family only . nelle : oh . okay . well , have a good time . michael : you 're invited . nelle : you mean she told you you could bring a plus - one ? michael : well , she actually mentioned you by name . we do n't have to stay long . nelle : oh , i 'm not going . i mean , you know i would do anything for you , but , invitation or not , putting me in the same room as bobbie spencer feels like a really bad idea . does n't it ? michael : well , i mean , my grandmother would n't want to ruin her own party . nelle : maybe not , but if anything went wrong , i would be the one that would be blamed , no matter whose fault it was , and i do n't want to put you the awkward position of having to defend me to your grandmother and to your mother , because , of course , she 'll take bobbie 's side . so i 'd rather just stop the problem before it starts and just avoid them both , you know ? [ scene_break ] carly : nelle did cause trouble for my family . sharon : by any chance , was she involved with your son before he died ? carly : no . they barely knew each other . what happened with nelle and my family -- well , actually , it was a misunderstanding . sharon : i 'm sure that 's exactly what she wanted you to think . carly : the misunderstanding was legitimately not her fault . now , how she handled it -- well , that 's a different story . sharon : i just hope nelle never takes anything precious from you or from the people you love the way she did from me and my mine . bobbie : so , sweetheart , i will call you later . carly : yes . bobbie : okay ? carly : yes , okay . bobbie : all right . sharon , it was very good to meet you . take care . sharon : you , too . carly : i want to get back to why you contacted me . i know some of the details that surround your brother 's passing . i know that your parents and the police suspect nelle . sharon : we do , for good reason . carly : okay , you know , nelle is not my favorite person , or , otherwise , i would n't have agreed to meet with you . but she never took anything from me -- i mean , not a post - it , not a paper clip . and she had every opportunity . sharon : did she lie to you ? carly : like a rug . every word our of her mouth to my family was a lie from the second she came to town until ... we discovered why . sharon : that `` legitimate `` misunderstanding you mentioned ? do n't underestimate her , ms. corinthos . the most important thing you need to know about janelle , the place that she is most dangerous , is her talent for deceit -- not just the lies but the way she used little tricks to worm her way in before striking . you need to know what led up to my brother 's death and how janelle was ultimately able to get away with murder . [ scene_break ] quinn : we ca n't hold the guests in the lobby forever . we have to start ! where is nathan ? nathan : right here . quinn : oh , thank heaven . maxie : hi , you must be -- quinn : now , look , when the crowd comes in , you 're going to be hidden right over there . and then we 're going to cue you when it 's time for your entrance . and then -- excuse me . what on earth do you think you 're doing ? maxie : i 'm introducing ask man landers . amy : maxie , no ! quinn : look , i do n't know who you think you are , but this is not the plan . maxie : actually , it is now . and i would like to introduce you to all the ask man landers ! fellas ? quinn : what ?

[ sighs ] you need to get a professional in here , you know ? you got to bring in a pro , 'cause i blew it . i blew it , and , you know , maybe i 'm a little edgy right now because , as much as i did n't want to be here , and i did n't want to help you ... i did n't want to let you down , either . anna : you have n't . 'cause cassandra , she 's -- you know , she 's all dramatic , and i - i think that she 'll reach out to you again . finn : what would make you say something like that ? anna : well , because , unlike you , i do n't underestimate your charm . finn : my charm ? have you even met me ? i 'm the opposite of charming ! anna : oh , and the fact that you believe that 's true makes you even more appealing . [ scene_break ] nina : absolutely fascinating . quinn : i do n't understand . who are you , and why are you trying to hijack my event ? maxie : i am a friend of amy and nathan 's , and , as you can see , pr is my life . when my bff amy confided in me about the unveiling of ask man landers -- quinn : which she was not supposed to do ! maxie : um , i think the words you 're looking for are , `` thank you , amy ! thank you so much for convincing your genius friend to rescue my event . `` quinn : my event does not need rescuing ! maxie : but it does need improvement . watch and learn . having five ask man landers work the room , handing out pre - signed copies of the book while mingling with the customers -- that will compounded the mystery of his identity instead of reveal it . quinn : well , that 's really interesting , but i think i 'd rather have -- nina : no , no , no , no , no ! wait , wait , wait , wait . um , young -- young lady , tell us more . maxie : well , everyone will think his or her man of mystery is the real ask man landers , and they 'll be guessing which one is which all over social media . amy : that 's not what was agreed on ! maxie : well , your pal nathan thought it was a good idea . did n't you ? nathan : afraid i did . nina : so do i . amy : [ chuckles ] okay , then . i will leave you to it . nathan : amy , wait . quinn : hold it right there ! i have got 30 seconds to make a decision before the barbarians storm the gates . and as much as i find this young woman 's methods unorthodox and extremely annoying , this idea that trixie -- maxie : maxie . quinn : maxie has ... is quite brilliant , and i think we 're going to go with it ! [ chuckles ] um , you . man : yes , ma'am ? quinn : what do you know about , uh ... car repair , plumbing , and the human heart ? man : i know that if you have patience , and you really listen , that all three of those things can turn out good as new . quinn : [ laughing ] wow . i hope they 're all this good . maxie : see ? ! it 's working ! nathan : yeah , thanks to you . maxie : okay . i 'd better mingle , make sure all the other ask man landers are pulling their weight . nathan : hey . you should go back inside . maxie 's plan 's working . amy : [ sniffles ] great . just great . [ sniffles ] nathan : well , i thought you 'd be pleased . amy : i wish you would have clued me in on the plan , or that there even was a plan . now quinn thinks i blew off our non - disclosure agreement , and i did n't ! nathan : hey , hey , hey , hey . it 's all right . everything 's gon na be okay , all right ? [ scene_break ] sharon : my brother 's death was a shock . i mean , how could it be anything else ? but looking back ... how janelle -- i 'm sorry -- how nelle pulled it off was a sick sort of genius . carly : how do you mean ? sharon : in the beginning , she was so sweet -- unassuming and self - deprecating . carly : i can only imagine . sharon : then she did something so insidious , none of us even realized it was happening . nelle would always have some reason why she and zach could n't make family events . it started with family dinners . they 'd miss one here and there , and then the absences became more frequent . of course , they were two young people in love . carly : so why would n't they want to spend more time alone ? sharon : exactly . after a while , zach started missing family functions , which was unusual , and then family trips , which was unheard of . before we knew it , we were n't seeing him at all . and when they would call or stop by , zach was cool , even defensive . we stopped hearing that great laugh of his . carly : why ? sharon : nelle had begun to convince him that we thought she was n't good enough for him -- that we called her `` trash `` behind his back . of course , none of it was true , but , by then , what could we do ? zach announced that they were getting married , and we could either accept nelle or -- or he 'd cut us out of his life . we did n't know it at the time , but zach had already changed his will , left everything to her . and what do you know ? no sooner was the will signed than she dragged him off to vacation , in maine , of all places ! carly : lots of people vacation in maine . sharon : no , not -- not zach . he was a southern boy through and through . hated cold . was n't all that fond of roughing it , either . his favorite part of any outdoor excursion was the wind - down afterward , sitting around with his feet up . [ voice breaking ] nelle had arranged it so that they would be all alone . and -- and he went along ... because he trusted her . [ crying ] got in that kayak in that icy water and ... carly : hey . you know ... here . there . we do n't have to go through every detail right now . we do n't , you know ? maybe we can talk about this later . when are you leaving ? sharon : um ... i had n't planned on leaving until tomorrow , at the earliest . but i would be -- `` happy `` is n't the right word . i would be willing to meet with you again , to tell you the rest and to answer any questions . carly : i appreciate that . sharon : as painful as it is to stare all this in the face again , i 'm very glad we met . you obviously think that nelle might be up to something . whatever it is , do n't let her get away with it . [ scene_break ] michael : want some coffee ? nelle : coffee . michael : all right . i 'll go . nelle : hey , michael ... about the party -- you know , if you -- if you really want me to go ... michael : oh , no . look , you 're right . we 'd just be asking for trouble if we go . i 'll , um -- i 'll take my grandmother out for a special dinner , and we 'll celebrate one - on - one . cool . nelle : i never meant to suggest that you should n't go . michael : if i show up , it 'll look like i 'm giving in . you know , i want them to think we 're out somewhere having a good time with each other . nelle : [ sighs ] i do n't know , michael . that just feels like one more thing they 're gon na be able to use against me . michael : maybe . maybe they will . but , look , at least they 'll know we 're serious about each other , right ? nelle : if you 're sure . michael : i 'm sure . look , it 'll all work out , all right ? trust me . okay . i 'll be back . nelle : all right .

[ scene_break ] josh : i guess i 'm just feeling like maybe we did n't appreciate the kids while we had them . reva : i think there were several things we did n't appreciate quite enough . josh : that 's true . yes . reva : so what is going on ? did you have a parishioner come to you with some kind of kid problem ? josh : no , no . it 's actually much closer to home than that . it 's will . reva : ah . is he having trouble being here ? josh : i think it 's more than that . he 's got issues . reva : what kind of issues ? josh : well , he 's been acting out a lot with r.j. and with me . but i had an interesting conversation with james , who told me that his fall from the stage was n't an accident . he was pushed . reva : and , what , you think will did it ? josh : yes , i do . reva : what does cassie think about that ? josh : she does n't want to believe it . she still has feelings of guilt about sending will to san cristobel , feeling like she abandoned him , that kind of thing . reva : well , i can understand that . i certainly felt guilty about giving up jonathan . and you know something , he did n't set those fires to have fun . he did it because he felt deserted . he wanted to hurt other people the way he 'd been hurt . josh : but eventually , you ... you called him on it , right ? reva : well , yes , because it was the only thing i could do to try to help him . josh : well , see , that 's kind of what i think this situation is with will , but we wo n't be able to help him until we face the truth about what he 's been doing . reva : well , i 'm sure you 'll figure out a way to help him , because you always do . and you should just be happy that you 're getting to will early enough , which is something i did n't do with jonathan . josh : thanks . i needed that . reva : you 're welcome .

[ scene_break ] josh : i guess i 'm just feeling like maybe we did n't appreciate the kids while we had them . reva : i think there were several things we did n't appreciate quite enough . josh : that 's true . yes . reva : so what is going on ? did you have a parishioner come to you with some kind of kid problem ? josh : no , no . it 's actually much closer to home than that . it 's will . reva : ah . is he having trouble being here ? josh : i think it 's more than that . he 's got issues . reva : what kind of issues ? josh : well , he 's been acting out a lot with r.j. and with me . but i had an interesting conversation with james , who told me that his fall from the stage was n't an accident . he was pushed . reva : and , what , you think will did it ? josh : yes , i do . reva : what does cassie think about that ? josh : she does n't want to believe it . she still has feelings of guilt about sending will to san cristobel , feeling like she abandoned him , that kind of thing . reva : well , i can understand that . i certainly felt guilty about giving up jonathan . and you know something , he did n't set those fires to have fun . he did it because he felt deserted . he wanted to hurt other people the way he 'd been hurt . josh : but eventually , you ... you called him on it , right ? reva : well , yes , because it was the only thing i could do to try to help him . josh : well , see , that 's kind of what i think this situation is with will , but we wo n't be able to help him until we face the truth about what he 's been doing . reva : well , i 'm sure you 'll figure out a way to help him , because you always do . and you should just be happy that you 're getting to will early enough , which is something i did n't do with jonathan . josh : thanks . i needed that . reva : you 're welcome .

[ binder thuds ] diane : everything all right ? dare i ask ? elizabeth : hello , diane . um , how can i help you ? diane : i guess the question is , how can i help you ? did you not call me and ask me to represent ric lansing ? elizabeth : yes . yes , i did . diane : did we not have an appointment an hour ago ? elizabeth : i am so sorry . i was going to cancel it . i ... diane : why would you do that ? elizabeth : because [ sighs ] there is so much evidence stacked up against ric . i just ca n't get involved with his defense . diane : oh . okay . uh , two things . uh , number one , i require 24-hour notice for a cancellation , so i 'm gon na have to charge you . and , number two , have you lost your mind ? alexis : molly and i are at odds over ric 's arrest and inevitable conviction . nikolas : let me guess -- molly does n't think it 's so inevitable ? alexis : of course she thinks he 's innocent . there 's a mountain of evidence against him , but she knows that he has n't done anything wrong . nikolas : i just feel badly for her . i mean , anybody in ric 's corner is in for a rude awakening . i 'm just glad elizabeth saw the light before it was too late . alexis : so , i take it elizabeth is no longer on team ric ? nikolas : no . she realizes that sticking by him would only bring more grief than he 's already caused her . molly : in order for my father to hurt me , he would have to be guilty , and he 's not . tj : i hope that 's true . molly : but ? tj : but my mother lied to me about what she was really up to here . molly : your mother and my father are not the same . tj : you 're right . [ chuckles ] things might turn out better for you and your dad than they did for me and my mom because the problem is , at this point , she ca n't fix anything between us , and she wo n't let me be . molly : what do you mean ? tj : she just tried to get in touch with me a little while ago , saying she was looking for me and had something important to tell me . molly : well , what 's it about ? tj : i do n't know . frankly , i do n't want to hear it . molly : maybe you should give her a chance . tj : [ scoffs ] are you kidding me ? molly : tj , you 've only got one mother . just hear her out . tj : i do n't know . molly : well , i 've only got one father , and i 'm not gon na hang him out to dry . duke : i was under the impression you and i were in this together . anna : we are . duke : your actions indicate otherwise . anna : i do n't have to consult you on official matters . my job is to protect the public . duke : you 're allowed to put your job first , but i have to do otherwise ? i just quit my job 'cause you insisted on it . anna : you work for a mobster . that is hardly the same thing at all . duke : we had an arrangement , anna . i brought you enough evidence to arrest julian jerome and close down his operation . in exchange for that , i cut my ties with sonny . anna : yes , which is as much for your benefit as mine . duke : i 've kept my side of the bargain . you did n't keep yours . why do n't i just walk straight back to sonny now and get my job back ? sonny : deny , deny , deny -- that 's all you know how to do , ric . you do n't have the guts to own up to what you did , even when you 're caught red - handed ? ric : sonny , please , just listen to me , okay ? sonny : i do n't want to listen anymore ! i do n't even know why i showed up here , 'cause i knew you 'd ric : sonny , listen . whether you believe me or not , you got to understand -- you got to realize the danger is still out there . sonny : you know , this -- you actually got me thinking what it would be like to have a real brother ... but i guess that 's never gon na happen , right , ric ? thanks . ric : sonny . sonny : no . ric : no , sonny . sonny : give my regards to johnny zacchara . ric : you 're still in danger . sonny , you got to believe me . sonny : i do n't care ! ric : sonny ! i 'm not your enemy , sonny ! your real enemy is out there ! sonny ! jordan : i ca n't believe it . the pcpd has the wrong guy , and ric lansing is getting played . julian : what do you say we accept ric lansing 's fate , and we move on ? hmm ? jordan : look , do n't get me wrong . i - i want to get back to work more than ever . i just , um -- you know , how ? it 's not like we can pick up where we left off . julian : no , we ca n't . i already told everybody i was out . made assurances to my loved ones , the authorities . now i have no choice but to go back on my word , resume operations , and keep lying . jordan : but , julian -- julian : uh ... [ sighs ] jordan , what is your sudden reluctance to get your hands dirty here ? i mean , you begged me to get into the action here . i mean , you should be chomping at the bit . so why are n't you ? anna : well , you 've done your job . you got the man you came here to get . there 's no reason you ca n't tell your son the truth now . jordan : nothing . i 'm -- this is a lot to digest , okay ? and to be honest , i do n't think revving up right now is -- is a wise move . julian : and i should , uh , care about what you think why ? jordan : because if you do n't have me , you do n't have anybody to run your operation and maintain your little low profile . julian : [ sighs ] jordan : see , my charges were dismissed on a technicality , and that means that the cops are gon na be watching me like a hawk , just waiting for me to mess up , so if i 'm gon na risk my neck for you and your mystery boss , i 'm gon na need a little security . julian : such as ? jordan : a name -- who you 're really working for . brad : well , so much for that . lucas ' mother is standing guard in front of his room . she does n't want him to get `` unduly upset . `` as if i would upset him ... duly or not . all right , i - i am a ray of sunshine , okay ? i walk in a room , and wilted flowers perk up , fruit ripens , widows -- they -- they feel a second chance at love . lucas -- he would have been back on the bench press days ago if i was in there to cheer him up . [ sighs ] what if she stands guard indefinitely ? how the hell am i gon na get lucas back if i ca n't even get in to see him ? britt : do n't you get it ? you 're not going to get lucas back , as much as i 'm not gon na get nikolas back . alexis : i was under the impression that elizabeth was staunchly on ric 's side . nikolas : she was . i stopped by her house , uh , to check on her the morning after ric was arrested . she was trying to arrange for diane to defend him . alexis : mm , and when did that change ? nikolas : when she realized that ric 's prints were all over the gun . alexis : and when did she realize that ? during one of your visits ? nikolas : alexis , it was -- it was right there in the paper . she just had n't read it yet . alexis : until you pointed it out . interesting . nikolas : interesting how ? alexis : well , it 's interesting that it was n't until your informal prosecution of ric that won elizabeth over . it 's also interesting that ric being incarcerated for possibly the rest of his life clears a path for you to get right to elizabeth . diane : you have no business giving up on this man without a fight . elizabeth : diane , they found a gun in his room with his fingerprints all over it , and not only was it the same gun used to shoot lucas , it was the same gun used to shoot the man who shot lucas . diane : elizabeth , there are a million ways that ric 's fingerprints could have wound up on that gun . elizabeth : name one . diane : you put me on retainer , and i 'll name 10 in court , and i 'll give you 12 expert witnesses for each one . that gun and the fingerprints are circumstantial evidence . they in no way prove that ric lansing shot either of those people . elizabeth : it 's very persuasive to me . diane : okay , you answer me this . is ric lansing a stupid man ? elizabeth : you know he 's not . diane : right . then why would he shoot someone , not wipe his fingerprints off the gun , and hide the gun in his own hotel room ? right . circumstantial . elizabeth : i do n't know . i just know that i ca n't get involved . diane : okay , so that 's it , then , right ? yeah , one little piece of non- evidence , and you pull up stakes ? elizabeth : i do n't see why this is any of your -- diane : i 'm just asking you -- elizabeth : this is not about you . diane : no , it 's not . you 're right . and from what i can see , it 's not about ric , either . no , this is all about you . guard : mr. popular .

[ door slams ] duke : hey , sonny . happy coincidence . you 're just the man i wanted to see . i 've got something urgent i need to discuss with you . jordan : you give me the boss 's name , and i have leverage . julian : sorry , jordan . think of me as being under a gag order . talking puts my family at risk . jordan : but we 're on the same side . julian : [ sighs ] i 'm doing you a favor . the less you know , the better . jordan : okay , so , then my safest bet is to stay out of it completely . i mean , i - i wo n't know anything if i do n't go back to work . julian : [ sighs ] fine . i 'll let the man in charge know that you turned me down . although [ chuckles ] i 'm sure that 'll go over about as well as my own attempt to retire . still want out ? jordan : [ sighs ] no . i 'm in . julian : good . now , you 'll have to get everything set up from scratch , but do n't worry . i 'll make sure you get the support you need . jordan : i thought that you were keeping a low profile . julian : i am , so do n't contact me unless it 's absolutely necessary . for all intents and purposes , julian jerome is out of the game . to the world , i quit , and it has to keep looking that way , or everything is gon na come tumbling down again .

's defense . i had a front - row seat for the end of your relationship with him . you put your faith in a.j . , and you felt you got burned . now you feel you 've done exactly the same thing with ric . elizabeth : where do you get off making assumptions about how i feel ? diane : i got ahold of a copy of the police report . i know that you were `` on the scene `` when the police arrested ric . now , it does not take a top - notch , highly in demand defense attorney to put two and two together . you fell for a.j . , and you were disappointed . now you 've fallen for ric , and you think the same thing is gon na happen , so you are protecting yourself from another hurt . elizabeth : can you blame me ? diane : no . but when i clear ric of these charges , will you blame yourself for not standing by him the way you blame yourself for not standing by a.j . ? and we both know you do . you change your mind , i will be at the police station springing my client . i know that ric would feel a lot better if you were there with me . duke : i 'm sorry , sonny . i was n't back five minutes when i heard about the deal that julian cut . sonny : it pissed me off . must be worse for you . duke : anna and i are at complete odds , needless to say . i mean , i left town believing julian was gon na be behind bars for the rest of his remaining days , and i come back and discover that he 's on the streets , free and clear . sonny : do n't sweat it . julian 's gon na get his sooner or later . duke : well , at least his power and his influence must have taken a hit , now that ric is no longer his backer . i mean , that must please you . your true enemy has been crushed . sonny : that 's the thing . ric said he was n't involved with julian -- never was . ric : molly , i ca n't tell you how much ... molly : it 's okay . it sucks when no one believes you . ric : [ chuckles ] yes . yeah , it does . molly : well , now you know at least one person does . and if i have anything to say about it , i 'm only the first . ric : look , sweetheart , i appreciate everything you 're doing for me , but i really do n't want you mixed up in the middle of this . molly : it 's too late . i 'm here . and i 'm not going anywhere . ric : no , honey , you got to understand . the people that are trying to set me up are very powerful , and they are very dangerous . molly : sonny is my uncle . jason was married to sam . i know what we 're up against . i 'm not scared . ric : yeah , well , maybe you should be . i 'm scared enough for all of us . molly : well , then i 'll be scared later when i actually have time , but right now , i need to help you , even if that just means being by your side . ric : that 's more than enough . molly : but i want to do more than that . ric : yeah , i know . i figured you would . molly : do you have representation yet ? ric : uh , i got a court - appointed attorney . i 'm working on trying to get somebody better .

molly : then do n't believe it . question it . question everything . how do you know julian is n't lying ? jordan : pardon me for being , um , a little slow . julian : hmm . jordan : but i do n't get it . julian : you 're not paid to get anything . jordan : oh , i 'm not paid at all . see , our business went belly - up when you got arrested and turned ric lansing over to the cops in exchange for your freedom . julian : so it would seem . jordan : you id 'd ric lansing as the kingpin . you gave up all kinds of evidence to prove it . i mean , there 's a massive paper trail . ric : yeah , manufactured -- every bit of it . the whole thing was part of a contingency plan my boss had in place should the need arise , which it did once my son was shot , and anna devane arrested me . anna : can i call you back ? great . thank you . hi . um , it 's nice to see you . how was your trip ? duke : delightful . ireland was surprisingly mild , weather - wise , for this time of year . sean and tiffany are well . they send you their best , as does your namesake , little anna . anna : mm - hmm . duke : she 's a firebrand . she 's fearless and intelligent . she reminds me of you . anna : does she ? duke : yes . although i kind of wonder right now , though , how the fearless and intelligent anna devane could let julian jerome go , unless , of course , i am so sadly mistaken . anna : no , you 're not . duke : why ? anna : because -- i 'm sorry . i - i tried to call you to let you know this was happening . duke : anna , when i left here , he was in custody . he was about to pay for what he 'd done to us . anna : yeah , that was -- that was the plan . duke : well , how could -- what happened ? how could you let him go ? anna : he cut a deal with baldwin . duke : and you could n't scuttle it ? anna : possibly , but i chose not to . duke : why ? anna : [ sighs ] duke : why ? anna : because our investigation revealed a greater danger than julian -- a financier . and julian turned state 's evidence against him . duke : so you gave him immunity ? anna : well , yes . we could n't pass up the chance to get the man he 's working for . it was sonny 's brother , ric lansing . ric : i knew you 'd come to gloat . surprised it took you this long . sonny : been busy , ric . ric : oh , yeah ? too busy to come down and see your only brother behind bars ? sonny : i 'm here now , ric . ric : well , better late than never . sonny : yeah , well , i 've been thinking a lot since you been arrested . remember when you got back in town , i went to your hotel room ? ric : yeah , i recall . sonny : and you said you wanted to put everything behind us ? ric : yeah , i did . and i still do . sonny : you wanted to be friends , brothers , and you wanted to shake my hand . ric : yeah , you did n't . sonny : i did n't want to roll the dice on brotherly love . i wanted to let you just be -- to see what happens . that was a mistake . maybe luke was right . ric : about what ? sonny : about killing you when i had the chance . elizabeth : [ sighs ] britt : what ... the hell ? brad : okay , steady there . last thing you want to do is lose it in front of nikolas . nikolas : you 'll be all right ? elizabeth : yeah , i 'm fine . i was just having a moment . [ sighs ] if it escalates into a full - blown meltdown , i 'll let you know . nikolas : okay . elizabeth : i should get back to work and focus on my -- my job and anything that 's not related to ric . nikolas : i 'm just a call away , all right ? cheer up . elizabeth : thanks . britt : [ sighs ] hi . how are you doing ? uh , how 's spencer ? nikolas : uh ... britt : are you seriously not even gon na talk to me ? nikolas : uh , forgive me . it looked like , uh , bradley and you were scheming . i did n't want to interrupt . brad : sorry . britt : for what ? it 's not your fault . it 's hers . brad : yeah . so what are you gon na do about it ? brad : [ sighs ] all right , listen . i 'm gon na try to sneak past lucas ' overprotective mother and liberate him for a wheel through the solarium . i could use a diversion . come with ? britt : i got work to do . brad : okay . well , you know where to find me . [ sighs ] lock and load . britt : [ sighs deeply ] elizabeth : britt . britt : we 're at work . it 's dr. westbourne . elizabeth : is there something i can do for you ? britt : you can hand me the o'connell file . elizabeth : oh , of course . yes , o'connell . here you go . have a nice day . britt : you do n't waste any time , huh ? elizabeth : thank you . i pride myself on snappy service . britt : already sniffing around nikolas , and ric just got carted off to the pokey . i mean , you 're dropping him quicker than you dropped your loser fixer- upper a.j . quartermaine . you just rebound right back to nikolas . elizabeth : i do n't see how any of this is your business . britt : [ mockingly ] `` boohoo , nikolas . if only i 'd chosen you , i 'd be so happy . but i 'm so sad . `` [ normal voice ] you 're not fooling anyone . you 're not sad . you 're thirsty ... parched . ric : wow . you really want me dead ? sonny : you 've been gunning for me this whole time , ric . you 'd have a better chance against me if you got in bed with somebody who would n't rat you out the first chance he got . julian jerome ? you would trust julian jerome ? ! ric : that 's the most sensible thing that you 've actually said . there is nothing trustworthy about jerome . sonny : it 's too late now to be admitting that you 're on the wrong side of the tracks . ric : will you listen to me , damn it ? ! jerome lied to the police . nothing he said to anna was true . i am not your enemy ! i am being set up . alexis : molly , if the accusations being leveled against your father were just coming from julian , i would be skeptical , but they 're coming from the police , as well . abundant evidence -- physical , financial , other documents all corroborating his involvement . molly : i knew you would n't side with dad . you hate that he and i have bonded . you never wanted that . alexis : molly , i always wanted you to have a good relationship with your father . molly : well , your idea of a good relationship was him on the west coast and me on this one . alexis : that was his choice . molly : he came back , and our relationship will only get better when i prove him innocent , so do us all a favor and stay out of my way . alexis : [ sighs ] tj : hey , mol . are you all right ? molly : i will be when i see my father . the feds are finished questioning him , and he 's back at the pcpd so i 'm on my way to see him ... unless my mother locks me up first . she ca n't stand the idea of my dad and me getting close . tj : i hate to say it , but , uh , i do n't really like it much either . molly : why would you say that ? tj : because i do n't want to see your father hurt you the way my mother hurt me . jordan : i thought you wanted out of the game . julian : yeah . i want nothing more . jordan : then why did n't you name your actual boss ? julian : if i would have turned in my real benefactor , my son 's shooting would have been the start of a bloodbath -- a threat that my boss was more than ready to make good on . so , the only way to save my family was to hand anna a scapegoat . anna : we needed hard evidence to build a case against ric , and julian was in the unique position to be able to provide us with that . otherwise , ric would have just walked . duke : oh , so now julian walks instead . anna : yeah . i know this outcome is less than we hoped . duke : `` less than `` ? need i remind you of everything julian jerome has taken from us ? anna : you do n't need to remind me of a damn thing . duke : then how did this happen ? you had enough evidence to bring julian to justice , and now suddenly , he walks free ? how -- how did that happen ? anna : i would have kept julian and lansing if i could keep both of them , but i could n't . it was one or the other . i made a judgment call . duke : based on what criteria ? anna : that ric posed a potential danger to the people of port charles . duke : julian does n't pose a potential -- major danger to us -- to you , to me ? anna : i am police commissioner ! it is my duty to choose what is best for this city . duke : you made your choice ... and you did n't choose us . elizabeth : dr. westbourne , i have work to do , so if that is all you have to say ... britt : oh , there 's plenty more where that came from . elizabeth : of course there is , but before you waste your breath and my time , please know i have heard it all . britt : oh , i 'm sure i could think of a few new things . elizabeth : nothing you say is going to make things better between you and nikolas . britt : then i guess i have nothing to lose . elizabeth : other than a fistful of hair ? britt : [ scoffs ] elizabeth : my point is , nikolas thinks you are a lying baby thief . snarking at me is not going to make him hate you any less . in fact , nothing will . you could cure cancer and be canonized in the process , and he would still never forgive you . [ footsteps approaching ] elizabeth : [ chuckles ] diane : hello , ladies . [ binder thuds ] diane : everything all right ? dare i ask ? elizabeth : hello , diane . um , how can i help you ? diane : i guess the question is , how can i help you ? did you not call me and ask me to represent ric lansing ? elizabeth : yes . yes , i did . diane : did we not have an appointment an hour ago ? elizabeth : i am so sorry . i was going to cancel it . i ... diane : why would you do that ? elizabeth : because [ sighs ] there is so much evidence stacked up against ric . i just ca n't get involved with his defense . diane : oh . okay . uh , two things . uh , number one , i require 24-hour notice for a cancellation , so i 'm gon na have to charge you . and , number two , have you lost your mind ? alexis : molly and i are at odds over ric 's arrest and inevitable conviction . nikolas : let me guess -- molly does n't think it 's so inevitable ? alexis : of course she thinks he 's innocent . there 's a mountain of evidence against him , but she knows that he has n't done anything wrong . nikolas : i just feel badly for her . i mean , anybody in ric 's corner is in for a rude awakening . i 'm just glad elizabeth saw the light before it was too late . alexis : so , i take it elizabeth is no longer on team ric ? nikolas : no . she realizes that sticking by him would only bring more grief than he 's already caused her . molly : in order for my father to hurt me , he would have to be guilty , and he 's not . tj : i hope that 's true . molly : but ? tj : but my mother lied to me about what she was really up to here . molly : your mother and my father are not the same . tj : you 're right . [ chuckles ] things might turn out better for you and your dad than they did for me and my mom because the problem is , at this point , she ca n't fix anything between us , and she wo n't let me be . molly : what do you mean ? tj : she just tried to get in touch with me a little while ago , saying she was looking for me and had something important to tell me . molly : well , what 's it about ? tj : i do n't know . frankly , i do n't want to hear it . molly : maybe you should give her a chance . tj : [ scoffs ] are you kidding me ? molly : tj , you 've only got one mother . just hear her out . tj : i do n't know . molly : well , i 've only got one father , and i 'm not gon na hang him out to dry . duke : i was under the impression you and i were in this together . anna : we are . duke : your actions indicate otherwise . anna : i do n't have to consult you on official matters . my job is to protect the public . duke : you 're allowed to put your job first , but i have to do otherwise ? i just quit my job 'cause you insisted on it . anna : you work for a mobster . that is hardly the same thing at all . duke : we had an arrangement , anna . i brought you enough evidence to arrest julian jerome and close down his operation . in exchange for that , i cut my ties with sonny . anna : yes , which is as much for your benefit as mine . duke : i 've kept my side of the bargain . you did n't keep yours . why do n't i just walk straight back to sonny now and get my job back ? sonny : deny , deny , deny -- that 's all you know how to do , ric . you do n't have the guts to own up to what you did , even when you 're caught red - handed ? ric : sonny , please , just listen to me , okay ? sonny : i do n't want to listen anymore ! i do n't even know why i showed up here , 'cause i knew you 'd ric : sonny , listen . whether you believe me or not , you got to understand -- you got to realize the danger is still out there . sonny : you know , this -- you actually got me thinking what it would be like to have a real brother ... but i guess that 's never gon na happen , right , ric ? thanks . ric : sonny . sonny : no . ric : no , sonny . sonny : give my regards to johnny zacchara . ric : you 're still in danger . sonny , you got to believe me . sonny : i do n't care ! ric : sonny ! i 'm not your enemy , sonny ! your real enemy is out there ! sonny ! jordan : i ca n't believe it . the pcpd has the wrong guy , and ric lansing is getting played . julian : what do you say we accept ric lansing 's fate , and we move on ? hmm ? jordan : look , do n't get me wrong . i - i want to get back to work more than ever . i just , um -- you know , how ? it 's not like we can pick up where we left off . julian : no , we ca n't . i already told everybody i was out . made assurances to my loved ones , the authorities . now i have no choice but to go back on my word , resume operations , and keep lying . jordan : but , julian -- julian : uh ... [ sighs ] jordan , what is your sudden reluctance to get your hands dirty here ? i mean , you begged me to get into the action here . i mean , you should be chomping at the bit . so why are n't you ? anna : well , you 've done your job . you got the man you came here to get . there 's no reason you ca n't tell your son the truth now . jordan : nothing . i 'm -- this is a lot to digest , okay ? and to be honest , i do n't think revving up right now is -- is a wise move . julian : and i should , uh , care about what you think why ? jordan : because if you do n't have me , you do n't have anybody to run your operation and maintain your little low profile . julian : [ sighs ] jordan : see , my charges were dismissed on a technicality , and that means that the cops are gon na be watching me like a hawk , just waiting for me to mess up , so if i 'm gon na risk my neck for you and your mystery boss , i 'm gon na need a little security . julian : such as ? jordan : a name -- who you 're really working for . brad : well , so much for that . lucas ' mother is standing guard in front of his room . she does n't want him to get `` unduly upset . `` as if i would upset him ... duly or not . all right , i - i am a ray of sunshine , okay ? i walk in a room , and wilted flowers perk up , fruit ripens , widows -- they -- they feel a second chance at love . lucas -- he would have been back on the bench press days ago if i was in there to cheer him up . [ sighs ] what if she stands guard indefinitely ? how the hell am i gon na get lucas back if i ca n't even get in to see him ? britt : do n't you get it ? you 're not going to get lucas back , as much as i 'm not gon na get nikolas back . alexis : i was under the impression that elizabeth was staunchly on ric 's side . nikolas : she was . i stopped by her house , uh , to check on her the morning after ric was arrested . she was trying to arrange for diane to defend him . alexis : mm , and when did that change ? nikolas : when she realized that ric 's prints were all over the gun . alexis : and when did she realize that ? during one of your visits ? nikolas : alexis , it was -- it was right there in the paper . she just had n't read it yet . alexis : until you pointed it out . interesting . nikolas : interesting how ? alexis : well , it 's interesting that it was n't until your informal prosecution of ric that won elizabeth over . it 's also interesting that ric being incarcerated for possibly the rest of his life clears a path for you to get right to elizabeth . diane : you have no business giving up on this man without a fight . elizabeth : diane , they found a gun in his room with his fingerprints all over it , and not only was it the same gun used to shoot lucas , it was the same gun used to shoot the man who shot lucas . diane : elizabeth , there are a million ways that ric 's fingerprints could have wound up on that gun . elizabeth : name one . diane : you put me on retainer , and i 'll name 10 in court , and i 'll give you 12 expert witnesses for each one . that gun and the fingerprints are circumstantial evidence . they in no way prove that ric lansing shot either of those people . elizabeth : it 's very persuasive to me . diane : okay , you answer me this . is ric lansing a stupid man ? elizabeth : you know he 's not . diane : right . then why would he shoot someone , not wipe his fingerprints off the gun , and hide the gun in his own hotel room ? right . circumstantial . elizabeth : i do n't know . i just know that i ca n't get involved . diane : okay , so that 's it , then , right ? yeah , one little piece of non- evidence , and you pull up stakes ? elizabeth : i do n't see why this is any of your -- diane : i 'm just asking you -- elizabeth : this is not about you . diane : no , it 's not . you 're right . and from what i can see , it 's not about ric , either . no , this is all about you . guard : mr. popular . [ keys jingling ] guard : you got another visitor . [ lock clicks , door opens ] ric : molly . molly : dad . how are you doing ? ric : oh , you know , i 'm , uh -- i 'm making do . i 'm sorry you have to see me like this . molly : no , no , dad , forget about me . you should be worried about yourself . ric : listen , molly , okay ? i know that the press and , uh , all these people are saying that i 've done some terrible things and that there 's all this evidence against me , but i swear to you , every bit of it is fabricated . okay , i had nothing to do with -- with lucas being shot , and i definitely am not some kind of a drug dealer . molly : i know . ric : you -- you know ? molly : yeah , of course . dad , it 's okay . you do n't have to try and convince me . i believe you . ric : you think i 'm innocent ? molly : no , i know you 're innocent because i know you . you 're my father , and i 'm behind you 100 % . ric : [ sniffles ] molly : and there 's no way i 'm letting you go through this alone . anna : you ca n't go back to work for sonny . duke : the whole point of collaborating with sonny was to neutralize julian . that has not happened . anna : yes , it has . we 've cut the head off the snake . there is no more operation . there is no more jerome family organization for him to go back to . duke : anna , you do n't believe that any more than i do . anna : no , please . you ca n't do this . look at what you working for sonny does to our relationship . it compromises my job . just think of what this could do to us . duke : why should i , when you 've failed to ? you are no longer in a position to make requests or issue ultimatums . anna : duke , please . [ door slams ] duke : hey , sonny . happy coincidence . you 're just the man i wanted to see . i 've got something urgent i need to discuss with you . jordan : you give me the boss 's name , and i have leverage . julian : sorry , jordan . think of me as being under a gag order . talking puts my family at risk . jordan : but we 're on the same side . julian : [ sighs ] i 'm doing you a favor . the less you know , the better . jordan : okay , so , then my safest bet is to stay out of it completely . i mean , i - i wo n't know anything if i do n't go back to work . julian : [ sighs ] fine . i 'll let the man in charge know that you turned me down . although [ chuckles ] i 'm sure that 'll go over about as well as my own attempt to retire . still want out ? jordan : [ sighs ] no . i 'm in . julian : good . now , you 'll have to get everything set up from scratch , but do n't worry . i 'll make sure you get the support you need . jordan : i thought that you were keeping a low profile . julian : i am , so do n't contact me unless it 's absolutely necessary . for all intents and purposes , julian jerome is out of the game . to the world , i quit , and it has to keep looking that way , or everything is gon na come tumbling down again . [ cell phone rings ] anna : what is it ? jordan : we have a problem . alexis : tell me i 'm wrong . nikolas : well -- alexis : you helped elizabeth wash her hands of ric , and now you 're in a prime position to get her back . nikolas : no , i would n't put it quite like that . alexis : of course you would n't because that would be impolite , and your manners are flawless . nikolas : most people consider that a good thing . alexis : etiquette aside , you told me you wanted to get elizabeth back , did you not ? nikolas : i did . alexis : and ric and elizabeth are now imploding , are they not ? nikolas : they are . alexis : so , what 's standing in your way ? nikolas : as far as i can see , nothing . alexis : what about britt ? brad : tear my head off , why do n't you ? britt : i did n't mean it . brad : i 'm very vulnerable right now , damn it . britt : i 'm sorry . brad : [ sighs ] that 's better . [ sighs ] now , you gon na tell me why you lashed out at me ? britt : i just had it out with elizabeth . brad : [ scoffs ] nurse weepy - mccries - a - lot ? britt : [ chuckles ] brad : please . you could wipe the floor with that bag of twigs . britt : no , no , no . do n't underestimate the teeny - tiny - little - doll thing . she was right about everything she said . brad : like what ? britt : like nikolas thinks i 'm a horrible person who does terrible things , and he 'll never forgive me . brad : no , i know things may look bad now , but forever is a long time . britt : [ sighs ] brad : remember how much felix used to loathe me ? then we got together . britt : and now you 're apart , and felix loathes you again . brad : okay , maybe not the best example . all i 'm saying is , things change . britt : not this time . not for me . you know , what gets me the most is n't that elizabeth was right . it 's that it 's only a matter of time before that sniveling , passive - aggressive little china doll nabs nikolas , and there 's nothing i can do about it . brad : oh , yeah , there is . elizabeth : i do n't understand . how is ric 's legal situation all about me ? diane : do the present circumstances remind you at all of last year when a.j . was on trial for connie 's murder ? elizabeth : i 'd rather not relive past mistakes , thank you . diane : my point exactly . i ran a.j . 's defense . i had a front - row seat for the end of your relationship with him . you put your faith in a.j . , and you felt you got burned . now you feel you 've done exactly the same thing with ric . elizabeth : where do you get off making assumptions about how i feel ? diane : i got ahold of a copy of the police report . i know that you were `` on the scene `` when the police arrested ric . now , it does not take a top - notch , highly in demand defense attorney to put two and two together . you fell for a.j . , and you were disappointed . now you 've fallen for ric , and you think the same thing is gon na happen , so you are protecting yourself from another hurt . elizabeth : can you blame me ? diane : no . but when i clear ric of these charges , will you blame yourself for not standing by him the way you blame yourself for not standing by a.j . ? and we both know you do . you change your mind , i will be at the police station springing my client . i know that ric would feel a lot better if you were there with me . duke : i 'm sorry , sonny . i was n't back five minutes when i heard about the deal that julian cut . sonny : it pissed me off . must be worse for you . duke : anna and i are at complete odds , needless to say . i mean , i left town believing julian was gon na be behind bars for the rest of his remaining days , and i come back and discover that he 's on the streets , free and clear . sonny : do n't sweat it . julian 's gon na get his sooner or later . duke : well , at least his power and his influence must have taken a hit , now that ric is no longer his backer . i mean , that must please you . your true enemy has been crushed . sonny : that 's the thing . ric said he was n't involved with julian -- never was . ric : molly , i ca n't tell you how much ... molly : it 's okay . it sucks when no one believes you . ric : [ chuckles ] yes . yeah , it does . molly : well , now you know at least one person does . and if i have anything to say about it , i 'm only the first . ric : look , sweetheart , i appreciate everything you 're doing for me , but i really do n't want you mixed up in the middle of this . molly : it 's too late . i 'm here . and i 'm not going anywhere . ric : no , honey , you got to understand . the people that are trying to set me up are very powerful , and they are very dangerous . molly : sonny is my uncle . jason was married to sam . i know what we 're up against . i 'm not scared . ric : yeah , well , maybe you should be . i 'm scared enough for all of us . molly : well , then i 'll be scared later when i actually have time , but right now , i need to help you , even if that just means being by your side . ric : that 's more than enough . molly : but i want to do more than that . ric : yeah , i know . i figured you would . molly : do you have representation yet ? ric : uh , i got a court - appointed attorney . i 'm working on trying to get somebody better .

[ doorbell rings ] [ sighs ] [ ringing ] xander : look , i understand you 're upset , but i have more important things on my mind right now . kristen : what ? go find sarah and the baby she stole from me ? xander : try to have some compassion , kristen , sarah is completely devastated over this . kristen : oh , my god , she 's devastated ? why does everyone keep telling me how devastated she is ? xander : because she just found out that the little girl that she has known and loved and seen through cancer is n't her biological child . kristen : yes , it never was . xander : just think about the bond they have . sarah loves that little girl with all her heart , more than you can possibly imagine . kristen : oh , my god . you do n't imagine that i know how strong the bond is between a mother and her child ? xander : i did n't mean that -- kristen : i know what it is to love -- love a child and then lose it , because that 's what happened to me , xander . xander : i was n't saying -- kristen : on the first day she was born , i was told that my baby was dead , and that i would never get to hold her in my arms again , and i never get to see her grow up , and that was a lie . she 's alive . my little girl is alive , and she 's been kept from me because of you ! victor : brady , i do n't know what -- brady : stop , granddad , do n't insult me . do n't insult me . i know that you were working with xander to switch those babies , right ? victor : why would you think that ? brady : 'cause you 're the one that called theresa to convince her to have tate tested as a bone marrow donor for mackenzie , right ? victor : that was the right thing to do . brady : [ laughs ] of course it was , because you knew that they were siblings . you knew that she was mine . victor : i was doing everything possible to save that little girl 's life . brady : except tell the truth . that 's what you do n't do . you do n't tell the truth . victor : brady -- brady : you 've been lying this whole time , and kristen and i have been going through unbearable grief , granddad . it has n't been good , and you 've known the whole time that my daughter was alive and right here in this town . will you do me a favor , please , for once in your miserable life and just be honest with your grandson , please ? victor : fine . i did all those things . and if i had to do them over again , i 'd do exactly the same thing . because i was protecting maggie . julie : you do n't know what happened with sarah . i was sure that jennifer told you , i mean , that 's how i found out . maggie : found out what , julie ? the last time i saw sarah , she was getting married , and she was so happy . julie : and you have n't spoken to anybody since then ? maggie : no , but obviously something is wrong . okay , did she not get married ? julie : oh , honey -- if i 'd known you were in the dark , i nev -- i do n't wan na upset you , maggie . maggie : well , you have , okay ? so just tell me what you know . julie : i 'm sorry , darling , i do n't think it 's my place . maggie : it 's your place . i 'm not letting you out of here until you tell me what 's going on with sarah . feel the clarity of non - drowsy gabi : [ sighs ] putting chad in charge of this company would be a disaster waiting to happen . abigail : gabi , just give it up . gabi : you stay out of it . li : i understand this is a disappointment , mrs . dimera . gabi : no , not a -- no , this is a travesty , okay ? and when this company crashes and burns , you know what ? do n't say i did n't warn you . chad : gabi , it 's time for you to leave , all right , while you still have some dignity . gabi : really ? okay , well , what 's gon na happen with my company , gabichic ? because that company is nothing without me . li : you have built gabichic into a very successful brand . gabi : right , okay , great , so if you go through with this , i am going to exercise my option to disassociate it from dimera . and i 'm gon na move my work somewhere else where it 's appreciated . li : i might as well tell you now , mrs . dimera , that 's not going to happen . we predicted you might attempt something like this , so we preemptively removed you as head of gabichic . julie : people are gon na be very upset with me when they hear i 've opened my big mouth yet again . maggie : well , i promise i wo n't tell them i heard it from you , but please , julie , what went wrong with sarah ?

maggie : wait , wait -- julie : what is wrong at the restaurant ? will : okay , nothing . but i 'm sorry , i had to get you away from maggie . what were you about to tell her ? julie : well , i found out about the baby switch , and i wanted to see if she was okay . i just assumed she knew . will : well , she does n't she does n't know , and she wo n't be okay if she finds out she 's responsible for her grandchild 's death . julie : i did not tell her anything . i just said i was sorry about what happened to sarah . she did n't know what i was referring to . will : okay , well , that -- that 's good . julie : will , she 's not gon na let this go . what do i say to her ? will : you -- you say nothing . you know , why do n't you head home , and i 'll -- let me handle it . julie : you sure ? will : yes , i 'm sure . i 'll just -- you know , i 'll say you had to go to the restaurant . julie : okay . honey , i 'm so sorry about all of this . will : no , it 's okay , it 's gon na be -- it 's gon na work out . julie : okay . will : okay . [ sighs ] gosh , i 'm so sorry , maggie . julie actually had to run to the restaurant because of the crisis . maggie : there 's no crisis , will . will : what do you mean ? maggie : i mean i 'm not stupid . i know you got julie away from here so you could cover for her . i need to know what 's going on . what are you hiding from me ? victor : brady , i know you feel betrayed , but you have to look at this from my perspective . brady : you took my baby . victor : it happened so fast . when that baby died in the hospital , it made me realize that maggie not only caused the death of adrienne , but also of her own grandchild . it would 've destroyed her ... and sarah . i could n't let that happen . brady : so you just decided to play god . and you let it destroy kristen and me , your grandson , instead . kristen : how could you do this to me ? we were partners , allies . how could you hand over my baby to someone else and let me believe that my little girl died ? xander : i 'm sorry for what you went through , kristen , i am , i truly am , but i love sarah . i 'd do anything for her . kristen : oh , and that makes it alright . xander : i 've never loved anyone the way i love her . hey . kristen : hm ? xander : i know you know what i 'm talking about , that all - consuming feeling . i 've seen how far you were willing to go for brady . kristen : okay , do n't you dare put this on me , do n't you dare . xander : i saw sarah 's baby die right in front of me . i knew she 'd be completely heartbroken , i just -- i could n't bring myself to deliver that devastating news to her . kristen : so instead , you switch the babies and let me be the one to get the news ? xander : i 'm sorry . kristen : you 're sorry ? you 're sorry ? my baby is out there with sarah god knows where . xander : i wan na find her just as much as you do . kristen : yeah ? well , i 'll tell you something , when we do find her , i promise you , i will make her pay for stealing my baby . what kind of a person does that ? xander : get off your high horse , kristen . sarah may have taken your baby , but you tried to take hers first . kristen : oh -- sarah : um , bonjour . i -- can i help you ? jeanne marie : ah , american . i live downstairs , and i heard a baby crying . is everything all right ? sarah : uh , yeah , um , it was my baby . she was a little bit fussy earlier , but she 's fine . so there 's nothing to worry about . i really have to get going -- jeanne marie : uh , no -- i know who you are . you may not see them , but your itchy eyes know gabi : you ca n't -- okay , you ca n't remove me from gabichic . that 's my company . i built it . li : look at your contract . you 'll see we 're perfectly within our rights . gabi : i 'm not gon na let you do this to me . li : it 's already done . you were officially out as of this morning . gabi : what ? li : which , by your reaction today , i see we made the right choice . gabi : my reaction ? my reaction ? how would you like me to react ? you are taking away my life 's work . chad : gabi , it 's time to go . abigail : i just -- in these situations , i really like to try to just see the bright side of things , you know , like in this case , for example , you get to go home and have time to just pack your things leisurely , right ? wow . sarah : um , i think you 're mistaken . jeanne marie : surely you remember me , jeanne marie , your neighbor . sarah : jeanne marie ? jeanne marie : i did not see much of you when you first lived here , but i know you are madame dimera . sarah : madame dimera ? jeanne marie : what 's your given name , again ? um , antoinette ? amelie ? sarah : abigail . my name is abigail . jeanne marie : oh , yeah , abigail . [ speaks french ] sarah : yes , i -- it 's good to see you again . jeanne marie : and you -- where is your handsome husband ? sarah : husband ? jeanne marie : who could forget dear charles , huh ? sarah : chad . chad , yeah , he is back in the states . jeanne marie : salem , if i remember . sarah : yes . jeanne marie : you seem a bit lost . i hope you two have not have a quarrel , huh ? kristen : you think you can turn this around on me ? xander : are you really gon na try and pretend i do n't know exactly what you did ? arraigning to have dr . rolf steal sarah 's unborn baby from her womb so you could get it implanted into you . kristen : she wanted an abortion , xander . you were there . i was planning on taking the baby that she did n't want . xander : oh , please , you did n't care about the baby . all you care about is finding a way to trap brady . kristen : okay , that is not true . xander : of course it is ! kristen : no , it 's not ! xander : of course it is . the only reason you did n't go trough with your insane plan is because you found out you were already pregnant . turns out you found a way to pull brady into your web after all , and the poor dolt is stuck there to this day . kristen : stop it . stop it . xander : go on . kristen : just stop it ! brady : you say that you could n't bear to watch maggie suffer , i get that . i do n't like to see maggie suffer , but my question to you is why is it so easy to watch me suffer ? how do you think i felt when i heard that i 'd lost my little girl , hm ? victor : i was n't okay with it , in fact , it damn near killed me , literally . brady : what are you talking about ? victor : the stroke . i 'm convinced it was brought on by the terrible stress of making the decision that i had to make . brady : think it was stress , or do you think it was guilt ? victor : both . i never wanted to hurt you , brady . brady : i do n't believe that anymore . do n't -- do n't claim that you care about me , because i do n't think that you ever did . victor : that 's not true . brady : you know , right after i lost my baby -- or i thought that i had lost my baby -- you know what you did ? do you remember what you did ? you fired my ass . victor : i had to do that . brady : and you replaced me with xander . xander ! who i know that you could n't stand , and you made him ceo of the company . victor : i did n't have a choice . brady : what do you -- you keep saying that . what do you mean you did n't have a choice ? victor : it was the price that he demanded . brady : you -- that -- that was his pr -- his price for doing the baby switch , is that what you 're saying to me ? victor : yes . he had me over a barrel , and he knew it . it was the only way to protect maggie . maggie : you need to tell me what you 're hiding from me , will . you of all people know what it 's like to be in prison . isolated . alone . people on the outside try to protect you from anything upsetting . will : maggie , i -- i -- you 're right -- maggie : you know what , you have a daughter . how would you feel if people lied to you about arianna ? will : i -- i 'd feel terrible . maggie : i know sarah 's a grown woman , but she 's still my little girl . will : i -- i know that , i know . maggie : she was so happy , and she was so hopeful when she was here . she had her wedding dress on , and she was preparing for a life with xander and mickey . and now something is wrong with her , and everyone seems to know about it except for me . will : look , i -- i 'm not sure what julie was telling you -- maggie : okay , you know what , will , look . you went to prison for me . and i will forever be grateful for that . but if you do n't tell me the truth now , i 'll never forgive you . will : o -- okay , okay , okay . i 'll tell you . it 's about xander . allergies with nasal congestion make it feel impossible to breathe . julie : planning on adding breaking and entering to your long list of criminal activities ? why am i not surprised ? maggie : sarah , she was here , and then she left to get married . i could tell how much she loved xander , and how excited she is to be marrying him . will : you know , that must have been a bittersweet moment for you , knowing that you could n't be there . maggie : yeah . yes . so now i know something is wrong , so please , will , what happened ? will : maggie , i 'm sorry that the truth is that ... the wedding never happened . maggie : ohh . why not ? sarah : yes , i 'm sorry to say that my husband and i did have a fight . jeanne marie : [ speaks french ] sarah : yeah , unfortunately , it was a terrible one . jeanne marie : but you are such a beautiful couple . you should not be here alone . sarah : every couple needs their time apart . jeanne marie : tell me , dear girl , what did he do , huh ? kristen : uh ! you will do or say anything to justify what you did . xander : i 'm just pointing out that you 're in no position to judge . kristen : you know what , xander , that we 're being honest now , i do n't think you really loved sarah . you never loved anyone but yourself . xander : that used to be true . i do love sarah . she changed me . kristen : oh , my god . people do n't change . xander : you 've been running around telling everybody that 'll listen that you 've changed for a year ! kristen : no , but that 's different because i became a mother . xander : raising that little girl changed me , too . kristen : oh , god , do n't you dare . do n't you dare act like she 's yours . xander : all i 'm saying is i finally know what it means to be selfless , and it was n't just sarah that i had to look after . i had to spare maggie , too . kristen : maggie . xander : yeah , she had no idea that she just killed her own granddaughter in an accident . kristen : when did you care so much about maggie ? xander : we have a bond . i -- i did n't wan na see her suffer . kristen : oh , come on . the only person that loves maggie and would risk everything would be -- xander : what ? kristen : oh , my god . victor . he put you up to this , and do n't you dare -- do n't you dare deny it . i can see it all over your face . brady : how many times ? how many times are you gon na do this to me ? victor : it was n't about you , brady . brady : never is . never is . you always find a way to put me last , and funny enough , no matter what you do , i always come back to you . i 'm always here . victor : because we 're family . brady : do n't you cite that family crap with me . you know , when you had your stroke , you know where -- i was at the hospital . i came to see you , even though i was so angry with you i did n't wan na have anything to do with you . but i said hell , brady , he 's still your grandfather , so -- victor : and always will be . brady : no , no , i do n't think so , not anymore . victor : you do n't mean that . brady : do you know what my half - brother eric is doing right now ? he 's been up all night , and he is searching for sarah and my baby girl . he 's going through the worst time in his life . he just found out that his girl is gone . but he 's helping me out . you know why he 's doing that ? because he cares about me , grandad , because that 's -- that 's family . victor : maggie is my family , too . brady : does she know what you did ? victor : no , and you ca n't tell her . brady : [ scoffs ] victor : please . brady : no , i -- do n't worry about it . well , it might serve you right if i did , but i have bigger things to do , do n't i ? i have to get my family together , and i need to find my daughter . victor : brady -- brady : no , i 'm done , grandad . i do n't want you contacting me . i do n't want to see your face . we 're not family anymore . you 're dead to me . it 's starting to happen every day . chad : now , that was an excellent decision . li : well , it was n't an easy one . abigail : well , it should 've been . li : she did build a successful company from the ground up , whereas dimera enterprises was handed to you , chad . chad : i 'm not sure i would put it that way . li : i would . by all accounts , you were your father 's favorite . chad : okay , yeah , my -- i 've been fortunate . but through my family 's legacy , i mean , yeah , we 've had a lot of tragedy and missteps , but through it all , i 'm committed to prove that dimera can succeed and i 'm not just gon na create a profit , i 'm gon na do some good in the world . li : noble sentiments . ultimately , the proof will be in the bottom line . we 're with you , chad , but the leash is short . we 'll be watching . chad : i 'll do my best . gabi : this is my store , okay ? i have been locked out , and i 'm gon na get in by whatever means necessary . julie : you have a very broad interpretation of what belongs to you . gabi : oh , you 're talking about my husband 's heart . it still makes me very sick that it 's beating inside of your body . julie : because you ca n't blow it up anymore . i 'm alive , i 'm breathing . i 'm here whether you like it or not . gabi : well , if it were n't for me , you 'd be six feet under . to think i did that out of the kindness of my heart . julie : there 's no kindness in your heart , gabi . you belong in prison and you would be there if you had n't held everybody hostage over an innocent baby 's life . gabi : i saved that baby , just like i saved you , although i really wish i hadn't . julie : yeah , well , we all have regrets . i 'm here , i 'm not going anywhere . i 'm married to the most wonderful husband in the world . i have a family . i have friends that love me . what have you got , gabi ? gabi : shut your mouth . julie : or what ? gon na brain me with that pot metal daisy , sending yourself right back to prison ? i thought not . it 's over , gabi , and you know it . it 's all over . gabi : [ sighs ] will : i 'm sorry to have to tell you this , but right before they were about to get married , sarah changed her mind about xander . maggie : why ? will : i -- i -- maybe she came to her senses , and realized that he has done too many terrible things to commit to spending her entire life with him . maggie : but i thought she loved him enough to put aside all of her reservations she had about him , unless -- will : unless what ? maggie : unless he did something new . something that you 're not telling me . will : look , maggie , i know how you feel , okay ? i -- i went through the same thing when i was locked up . you 're trying to hold onto the outside world as hard as you can , but it 's slipping away . and i know that it 's killing you right now that sarah 's in pain and that you 're here and you ca n't be there for her . maggie : it is , and that 's why you need to tell me what happened . why did my daughter walk away from her wedding ? sarah : the man that i love did something awful . he lied to me . jeanne marie : [ speaks french ] sometimes they do stupid things , but i hope you can find it in your heart to forgive him , huh . sarah : i do n't know . some things are unforgivable . jeanne marie : i 'm very sorry to hear that . well , i will leave you now . sarah : well , thank you for stopping by . jeanne marie : wait . sarah : what ? what is it ? that baby is very young . sarah : yeah . jeanne marie : if i remember , your children were older , and you had two of them . sarah : my older children are with their father . jeanne marie : mm . sarah : this is a new addition to the family . jeanne marie : [ speaks french ] a child is such a gift , huh ? sarah : yeah , she is . jeanne marie : well i hope you can find it -- a way to reconcile because of the baby , huh ? every couple goes through difficult times , but as moliere said , [ speaks french ] to live without loving is to not live , really . ah . [ speaks french ] sarah : [ speaks french ] xander : come on , uncle vic , pick up . pick up ! [ phone rings ] kristen : you and i need to have a word . [ phone ringing ] in this time of social distancing , will : i -- i 'm sorry , maggie , i ca n't tell you more than i already have , and i 'm sorry i came here with such bad news . maggie : all i want is for sarah to be happy . will : i know . she deserves to be , you know , after everything she went through with rex and eric . maggie : and the baby . will : yeah . maggie : okay . [ clears throat ] when you get home , you tell her how much i love her and that she needs to call me or come visit . will : of course , yeah . um , but i just sort of think i get the sense that sarah wants to be alone for the time being . and i 'm sorry , maggie , i got ta go , i -- maggie : will ? will : yes ? maggie : thank you for telling me the news . will : of course . take care . maggie : [ sighs ] xander : sarah , it 's me . look , i know you 're angry , but you have to call me back , please . i wan na help you , sarah . victor : i do n't seem to recall inviting you into my home . kristen : shut the hell up , old man . victor : how dare you talk to me that way . kristen : how dare i ? after what you did to me ? victor : i 'm sure i do n't know what you 're talking about . kristen : xander told me everything . i know it was you . you planned to take my baby and give it to sarah and let brady and me believe that our little girl had died . victor : fine . i did what i had to do to protect maggie . kristen : this was n't about protecting maggie . you hated that i was having brady 's baby from the very beginning . victor : i wo n't deny that . kristen : exactly . you act like your motives were noble . you did n't do this out of love , victor , you did it out of hate . you did everything you could to turn brady against me , and you knew -- you knew that if we were having a baby together , that he would love me forever . victor : he always needed protection against his bad judgment . kristen : i will never forget how angry you were when brady invited me to move in here . and you would 've done anything to break us up , including letting us believe that our baby had died . victor : are you done ranting ? because i have things to do . kristen : [ sighs ] oh , yeah . as a matter of fact , i am done talking about this .

[ speaks french ] sarah : yes , i -- it 's good to see you again . jeanne marie : and you -- where is your handsome husband ? sarah : husband ? jeanne marie : who could forget dear charles , huh ? sarah : chad . chad , yeah , he is back in the states . jeanne marie : salem , if i remember . sarah : yes . jeanne marie : you seem a bit lost . i hope you two have not have a quarrel , huh ? kristen : you think you can turn this around on me ? xander : are you really gon na try and pretend i do n't know exactly what you did ? arraigning to have dr . rolf steal sarah 's unborn baby from her womb so you could get it implanted into you . kristen : she wanted an abortion , xander . you were there . i was planning on taking the baby that she did n't want . xander : oh , please , you did n't care about the baby . all you care about is finding a way to trap brady . kristen : okay , that is not true . xander : of course it is ! kristen : no , it 's not ! xander : of course it is . the only reason you did n't go trough with your insane plan is because you found out you were already pregnant . turns out you found a way to pull brady into your web after all , and the poor dolt is stuck there to this day . kristen : stop it . stop it . xander : go on . kristen : just stop it ! brady : you say that you could n't bear to watch maggie suffer , i get that . i do n't like to see maggie suffer , but my question to you is why is it so easy to watch me suffer ? how do you think i felt when i heard that i 'd lost my little girl , hm ? victor : i was n't okay with it , in fact , it damn near killed me , literally . brady : what are you talking about ? victor : the stroke . i 'm convinced it was brought on by the terrible stress of making the decision that i had to make . brady : think it was stress , or do you think it was guilt ? victor : both . i never wanted to hurt you , brady . brady : i do n't believe that anymore . do n't -- do n't claim that you care about me , because i do n't think that you ever did . victor : that 's not true . brady : you know , right after i lost my baby -- or i thought that i had lost my baby -- you know what you did ? do you remember what you did ? you fired my ass . victor : i had to do that . brady : and you replaced me with xander . xander ! who i know that you could n't stand , and you made him ceo of the company . victor : i did n't have a choice . brady : what do you -- you keep saying that . what do you mean you did n't have a choice ? victor : it was the price that he demanded . brady : you -- that -- that was his pr -- his price for doing the baby switch , is that what you 're saying to me ? victor : yes . he had me over a barrel , and he knew it . it was the only way to protect maggie . maggie : you need to tell me what you 're hiding from me , will . you of all people know what it 's like to be in prison . isolated . alone . people on the outside try to protect you from anything upsetting . will : maggie , i -- i -- you 're right -- maggie : you know what , you have a daughter . how would you feel if people lied to you about arianna ? will : i -- i 'd feel terrible . maggie : i know sarah 's a grown woman , but she 's still my little girl . will : i -- i know that , i know . maggie : she was so happy , and she was so hopeful when she was here . she had her wedding dress on , and she was preparing for a life with xander and mickey . and now something is wrong with her , and everyone seems to know about it except for me . will : look , i -- i 'm not sure what julie was telling you -- maggie : okay , you know what , will , look . you went to prison for me . and i will forever be grateful for that . but if you do n't tell me the truth now , i 'll never forgive you . will : o -- okay , okay , okay . i 'll tell you . it 's about xander . allergies with nasal congestion make it feel impossible to breathe . julie : planning on adding breaking and entering to your long list of criminal activities ? why am i not surprised ? maggie : sarah , she was here , and then she left to get married . i could tell how much she loved xander , and how excited she is to be marrying him . will : you know , that must have been a bittersweet moment for you , knowing that you could n't be there . maggie : yeah . yes . so now i know something is wrong , so please , will , what happened ? will : maggie , i 'm sorry that the truth is that ... the wedding never happened . maggie : ohh . why not ? sarah : yes , i 'm sorry to say that my husband and i did have a fight . jeanne marie : [ speaks french ] sarah : yeah , unfortunately , it was a terrible one . jeanne marie : but you are such a beautiful couple . you should not be here alone . sarah : every couple needs their time apart . jeanne marie : tell me , dear girl , what did he do , huh ? kristen : uh ! you will do or say anything to justify what you did . xander : i 'm just pointing out that you 're in no position to judge . kristen : you know what , xander , that we 're being honest now , i do n't think you really loved sarah . you never loved anyone but yourself . xander : that used to be true . i do love sarah . she changed me . kristen : oh , my god . people do n't change . xander : you 've been running around telling everybody that 'll listen that you 've changed for a year ! kristen : no , but that 's different because i became a mother . xander : raising that little girl changed me , too . kristen : oh , god , do n't you dare . do n't you dare act like she 's yours . xander : all i 'm saying is i finally know what it means to be selfless , and it was n't just sarah that i had to look after . i had to spare maggie , too . kristen : maggie . xander : yeah , she had no idea that she just killed her own granddaughter in an accident . kristen : when did you care so much about maggie ? xander : we have a bond . i -- i did n't wan na see her suffer . kristen : oh , come on . the only person that loves maggie and would risk everything would be -- xander : what ? kristen : oh , my god . victor . he put you up to this , and do n't you dare -- do n't you dare deny it . i can see it all over your face . brady : how many times ? how many times are you gon na do this to me ? victor : it was n't about you , brady . brady : never is . never is . you always find a way to put me last , and funny enough , no matter what you do , i always come back to you . i 'm always here . victor : because we 're family . brady : do n't you cite that family crap with me . you know , when you had your stroke , you know where -- i was at the hospital . i came to see you , even though i was so angry with you i did n't wan na have anything to do with you . but i said hell , brady , he 's still your grandfather , so -- victor : and always will be . brady : no , no , i do n't think so , not anymore . victor : you do n't mean that . brady : do you know what my half - brother eric is doing right now ? he 's been up all night , and he is searching for sarah and my baby girl . he 's going through the worst time in his life . he just found out that his girl is gone . but he 's helping me out . you know why he 's doing that ? because he cares about me , grandad , because that 's -- that 's family . victor : maggie is my family , too . brady : does she know what you did ? victor : no , and you ca n't tell her . brady : [ scoffs ] victor : please . brady : no , i -- do n't worry about it . well , it might serve you right if i did , but i have bigger things to do , do n't i ? i have to get my family together , and i need to find my daughter . victor : brady -- brady : no , i 'm done , grandad . i do n't want you contacting me . i do n't want to see your face . we 're not family anymore . you 're dead to me . it 's starting to happen every day . chad : now , that was an excellent decision . li : well , it was n't an easy one . abigail : well , it should 've been . li : she did build a successful company from the ground up , whereas dimera enterprises was handed to you , chad . chad : i 'm not sure i would put it that way . li : i would . by all accounts , you were your father 's favorite . chad : okay , yeah , my -- i 've been fortunate . but through my family 's legacy , i mean , yeah , we 've had a lot of tragedy and missteps , but through it all , i 'm committed to prove that dimera can succeed and i 'm not just gon na create a profit , i 'm gon na do some good in the world . li : noble sentiments . ultimately , the proof will be in the bottom line . we 're with you , chad , but the leash is short . we 'll be watching . chad : i 'll do my best . gabi : this is my store , okay ? i have been locked out , and i 'm gon na get in by whatever means necessary . julie : you have a very broad interpretation of what belongs to you . gabi : oh , you 're talking about my husband 's heart . it still makes me very sick that it 's beating inside of your body . julie : because you ca n't blow it up anymore . i 'm alive , i 'm breathing . i 'm here whether you like it or not . gabi : well , if it were n't for me , you 'd be six feet under . to think i did that out of the kindness of my heart . julie : there 's no kindness in your heart , gabi . you belong in prison and you would be there if you had n't held everybody hostage over an innocent baby 's life . gabi : i saved that baby , just like i saved you , although i really wish i hadn't . julie : yeah , well , we all have regrets . i 'm here , i 'm not going anywhere . i 'm married to the most wonderful husband in the world . i have a family . i have friends that love me . what have you got , gabi ? gabi : shut your mouth . julie : or what ? gon na brain me with that pot metal daisy , sending yourself right back to prison ? i thought not . it 's over , gabi , and you know it . it 's all over . gabi : [ sighs ] will : i 'm sorry to have to tell you this , but right before they were about to get married , sarah changed her mind about xander . maggie : why ? will : i -- i -- maybe she came to her senses , and realized that he has done too many terrible things to commit to spending her entire life with him . maggie : but i thought she loved him enough to put aside all of her reservations she had about him , unless -- will : unless what ? maggie : unless he did something new . something that you 're not telling me . will : look , maggie , i know how you feel , okay ? i -- i went through the same thing when i was locked up . you 're trying to hold onto the outside world as hard as you can , but it 's slipping away . and i know that it 's killing you right now that sarah 's in pain and that you 're here and you ca n't be there for her . maggie : it is , and that 's why you need to tell me what happened . why did my daughter walk away from her wedding ? sarah : the man that i love did something awful . he lied to me . jeanne marie : [ speaks french ] sometimes they do stupid things , but i hope you can find it in your heart to forgive him , huh . sarah : i do n't know . some things are unforgivable . jeanne marie : i 'm very sorry to hear that . well , i will leave you now . sarah : well , thank you for stopping by . jeanne marie : wait . sarah : what ? what is it ? that baby is very young . sarah : yeah . jeanne marie : if i remember , your children were older , and you had two of them . sarah : my older children are with their father . jeanne marie : mm . sarah : this is a new addition to the family . jeanne marie : [ speaks french ] a child is such a gift , huh ? sarah : yeah , she is . jeanne marie : well i hope you can find it -- a way to reconcile because of the baby , huh ? every couple goes through difficult times , but as moliere said , [ speaks french ] to live without loving is to not live , really . ah .

[ clears throat ] when you get home , you tell her how much i love her and that she needs to call me or come visit . will : of course , yeah . um , but i just sort of think i get the sense that sarah wants to be alone for the time being . and i 'm sorry , maggie , i got ta go , i -- maggie : will ? will : yes ? maggie : thank you for telling me the news . will : of course . take care . maggie : [ sighs ] xander : sarah , it 's me . look , i know you 're angry , but you have to call me back , please . i wan na help you , sarah . victor : i do n't seem to recall inviting you into my home . kristen : shut the hell up , old man . victor : how dare you talk to me that way . kristen : how dare i ? after what you did to me ? victor : i 'm sure i do n't know what you 're talking about . kristen : xander told me everything . i know it was you . you planned to take my baby and give it to sarah and let brady and me believe that our little girl had died . victor : fine . i did what i had to do to protect maggie . kristen : this was n't about protecting maggie . you hated that i was having brady 's baby from the very beginning . victor : i wo n't deny that . kristen : exactly . you act like your motives were noble . you did n't do this out of love , victor , you did it out of hate . you did everything you could to turn brady against me , and you knew -- you knew that if we were having a baby together , that he would love me forever . victor : he always needed protection against his bad judgment . kristen : i will never forget how angry you were when brady invited me to move in here . and you would 've done anything to break us up , including letting us believe that our baby had died . victor : are you done ranting ? because i have things to do . kristen : [ sighs ] oh , yeah . as a matter of fact , i am done talking about this .

kayla : mm . i think i 'll take the fifth . justin : you still want to have lunch with me ? kayla : i do , but i have been concerned about rafe all morning . how did the custody case go ? justin : unfortunately , not the way we wanted . zoey : i 'm sorry , but the judge made her ruling . hope : you could tell her you changed your mind . zoey : i haven't . hope : rafe has always wanted to be a father ... his whole life , so when david came into his life , it was -- it was a dream come true . rafe loves david so much , and david loves him just as much . you see how happy david is when he 's with rafe . zoey , please , i 'm begging you . if you really want what 's best for your nephew , please do n't tear them apart . please . kate : well , allie did n't say anything about partying to me . she just said that she needed money for food and for rent , so i thought , what 's the big deal ? lucas : i can not believe you fell for that . i explicitly told you not to give her any money . i told you that . you 're enabling her , mom . you know that 's what you 're doing , right ? kate : well , i do n't know . i think you 're being too hard on her , really . i mean , she deserves to have a little fun . lucas : `` a little fun `` ? that 's all she does . she has a lot of fun , believe me . she 's a master at having fun . but you -- you of all people , i think that you would want her to straighten her act out , you know , get her act together , because after all , when you were her age , you were working pretty hard , were n't you ? kate : yeah , well , i work hard to have a better life because i had nothing . allie does n't have that problem , so she can afford to be a little adventurous . lucas : why , because she has all that blood money from the dimeras that sami stole ? great . kate : oh , come on . seriously ? i think you 're overreacting . lucas : my daughter could be anywhere in this world right now . i think my level of concern is warranted . kate : [ scoffs ] is sami overreacting as well ? lucas : well , she 's freaking out , yeah . that 's what she does . that 's her thing . and she 's by ej 's side , of course . ej had another setback , so she 's in italy while i 'm here trying to track down my daughter . kate : oh . well , have you tried calling her ? lucas : [ sighs ] that 's a good idea . maybe i should try that . yes , i 've tried . i 've tried texting , calling , email -- everything . she does n't respond to me , okay ? she does n't respond to sami , either . have you heard from her ? kate : nope . not a word . lucas : all right . well , at least you only gave her enough money for food and rent . how far can she get on that ? kate : well , she might be able to get farther than you think . lucas : why ? why would you say that , mom ? kate : well , because i might have given her my credit card . lucas : you did , did n't you ? you gave her your damn credit card . i can not believe you ! you know what ? that 's ... that 's not only great for allie . that 's great for you . you 're gon na love that . when you get that bill and you see that amount that she runs up , you 're gon na have a heart attack . kate : [ stammering ] lucas : oh , wait a minute . wait a minute . that 's all we have to do , do n't we ? if you gave her your credit card , all we have to do is get on the computer and look up the charges and find out exactly where she 's been . thank you . kate : lucas , she 's a grown woman . you have to let her live her life now . lucas : what ? is that coming from you ? because you let your children live their lives and make their own decisions , really ? no , i do n't think so . let 's get on that computer and access those charges . i want to know where my daughter 's been right now . eric : so what makes you think we 're not getting the full story ? nicole : well , i look at allie , and i listen to her , and i hear echoes of sami , a wild child who 's used to getting what she wants and wrapping her wise , kind uncle around her cute little pinky finger . eric : so we should turn her away ? nicole : no , not at all . look , i -- i do n't blame her for not wanting to live with sami . i mean , it 's obvious she is bound and determined to control allie 's life . eric : so you 're okay with letting her stay here ? nicole : honey , she 's your niece . i 'm fine with it if you are . eric : couple of months . it 's a big commitment . nicole : mm . eric : i mean , we do n't have a lot of space . nicole : no , that is true . it 's tight in here , but i think holly would love having allie around . look , we 'll make it work . eric : thank you . you know what ? you 're right . i think it 's gon na work out for the best , and allie , she 'll still be here with sami comes for the wedding . maybe i can help heal their relationship . nicole : i love your optimism , but it is easier said than done , even for you . eric : yeah . nicole : i know firsthand that mother - daughter relationships can be very ... complex . zoey : i appreciate everything that rafe has done for my nephew , but i am going to respect the wishes of my brother . despite the mistakes that he has made , christian is still david 's father . rafe : oh . you 're here already . zoey : i 'm sorry . it 's time . there 's a court - appointed officer outside to make sure that the handoff goes smoothly . rafe : right . well , okay . all right . hey , uh , all right , buddy . listen , uh , when we were talking before about how you were gon na go live with your aunt zoey , right ? david : yeah . rafe : yeah , and um , well , guess what . she 's -- she 's here to pick you -- pick you up now and take you home , okay ? but guess what . you know what i did n't tell you ? she 's got a son , and he 's about the same age as you are , and i hear he 's a great kid , so you guys are gon na -- you 're gon na have a lot of fun together . although , i hear her pancakes are n't as good as mine , so ... david : yeah . rafe : yeah . but you know i 'm gon na call you , and i 'm gon na come visit you as often as i can , 'cause you 're my guy . david : yeah . rafe : yeah , that 's right . you 're my guy . i love you so much . depression . justin : [ sighs ] the look on rafe 's face when i told him he lost custody of david , i might as well have stuck a knife into his heart . kayla : i 'm so sorry . justin : i was sure we had a win . i feel like i let him down . kayla : justin , you did everything you could . justin : well , it does n't make it any easier . kayla : i wish there was a way i could cheer you up . justin : i can think of a few things , but i do n't think we have time during lunch . kayla : no , i do n't think we do , but we can do this . justin : oh . mm . here 's another option . why do n't we set a wedding date ? there are a boatload of nuptials about to take place , and i think we better stake a claim as soon as possible . kayla : okay , let 's do it . justin : okay . small wedding . not too much to plan . why do n't we get married next month ? kayla : july ? justin : what 's wrong ? you already booked that month ? kayla : no , it 's just , um ... justin : oh , right . you and steve were married in july . john : so what do you want to talk about ? kayla ? steve : anything but . john : hold on . what 's happening about you getting her back ? steve : [ sighs ] it 's off the table . john : hey , come on , man . since when do you give up when it comes to the love of your life ? steve : since justin put a ring on her finger . john : he did ? steve : mm - hmm . john : so what are you gon na do about that ? steve : i thought i said i do n't wan na talk about kayla . john : oh , yeah , i 'm sorry , buddy , but you know , i was so damn sure that -- steve : dude . dude ! can we move on ? john : yeah . steve : [ sighs ] john : what the hell you want to talk about ? steve : black patch . i wan na come back to work , if that 's okay . john : are you kidding me , partner ? you are the `` patch `` part of black patch . steve : yes , i am . john : i 'd love to have you back . besides , you ca n't live on reward money forever . steve : reward money ? john : kate paid me a visit . she wants me to convince you and hope to accept the key to the city , and if you do that , they 're gon na throw in some cash . steve : wow . that woman really does n't give up , does she ? john : no , she doesn't . so will you do us all a really big favor and just take the damn key ? eric : [ laughs ] allie : so what 's the verdict ? and just so you know , i make awesome smoothies . eric : how can i say no to that ? allie : so i can stay ? eric : [ laughs ] nicole : welcome to your new home . allie : oh , thank you so much . oh , god , thank you so much , uncle eric . you 're the best . you , too , nicole . i really do n't know why my mom does n't like you . nicole : well , uh , that 's probably because we are two totally different people . allie : yeah , you are so much more chill and ten times more fun . nicole : that 's because i 'm not your mother , which makes it a lot easier to be fun and chill for you . [ both laughing ] and not to mention you are eric 's niece , which makes me love you unconditionally . allie : that is so sweet . thank you , and i promise i will do everything i can to be a good house guest . i will keep my room clean . i 'll water the plants . i 'll do whatever you want me to . eric : listen , i know you 're excited , 'cause nicole and i are , too , but there are gon na be a few conditions while you 're staying here other than just , you know , keeping your room clean and watering the plants . there are some things that are non - negotiable . hope : why do n't i take david for , um ... to pick out some snacks , okay ? for the drive . come here , big guy . oh , my goodness . you got so heavy . rafe : [ sighs ] [ somber music ] [ sniffs ] this is his favorite , okay ? so you -- you read that to him at least twice before he goes to bed every night . okay ? zoey : i know how hard this is . rafe : no , you don't . just -- okay . zoey : rafe , i only live a few hours from here . you can see him whenever you want . rafe : yeah . thank you . zoey : i hope you know that i find no pleasure in this . you are -- you 're a good man . you 're a decent man , and you 've done a terrific job of taking care of him . rafe : yeah . zoey : and if it 's any consolation , i -- i promise you , i 'll be the best mom to david , and i -- i 'll love him like my own son . rafe : i know . zoey : i 'm sorry .

lucas : i can not believe you fell for that . i explicitly told you not to give her any money . i told you that . you 're enabling her , mom . you know that 's what you 're doing , right ? kate : well , i do n't know . i think you 're being too hard on her , really . i mean , she deserves to have a little fun . lucas : `` a little fun `` ? that 's all she does . she has a lot of fun , believe me . she 's a master at having fun . but you -- you of all people , i think that you would want her to straighten her act out , you know , get her act together , because after all , when you were her age , you were working pretty hard , were n't you ? kate : yeah , well , i work hard to have a better life because i had nothing . allie does n't have that problem , so she can afford to be a little adventurous . lucas : why , because she has all that blood money from the dimeras that sami stole ? great . kate : oh , come on . seriously ? i think you 're overreacting . lucas : my daughter could be anywhere in this world right now . i think my level of concern is warranted . kate : [ scoffs ] is sami overreacting as well ? lucas : well , she 's freaking out , yeah . that 's what she does . that 's her thing . and she 's by ej 's side , of course . ej had another setback , so she 's in italy while i 'm here trying to track down my daughter . kate : oh . well , have you tried calling her ? lucas : [ sighs ] that 's a good idea . maybe i should try that . yes , i 've tried . i 've tried texting , calling , email -- everything . she does n't respond to me , okay ? she does n't respond to sami , either . have you heard from her ? kate : nope . not a word . lucas : all right . well , at least you only gave her enough money for food and rent . how far can she get on that ? kate : well , she might be able to get farther than you think . lucas : why ? why would you say that , mom ? kate : well , because i might have given her my credit card . lucas : you did , did n't you ? you gave her your damn credit card . i can not believe you ! you know what ? that 's ... that 's not only great for allie . that 's great for you . you 're gon na love that . when you get that bill and you see that amount that she runs up , you 're gon na have a heart attack . kate : [ stammering ] lucas : oh , wait a minute . wait a minute . that 's all we have to do , do n't we ? if you gave her your credit card , all we have to do is get on the computer and look up the charges and find out exactly where she 's been . thank you . kate : lucas , she 's a grown woman . you have to let her live her life now . lucas : what ? is that coming from you ? because you let your children live their lives and make their own decisions , really ? no , i do n't think so . let 's get on that computer and access those charges . i want to know where my daughter 's been right now . eric : so what makes you think we 're not getting the full story ? nicole : well , i look at allie , and i listen to her , and i hear echoes of sami , a wild child who 's used to getting what she wants and wrapping her wise , kind uncle around her cute little pinky finger . eric : so we should turn her away ? nicole : no , not at all . look , i -- i do n't blame her for not wanting to live with sami . i mean , it 's obvious she is bound and determined to control allie 's life . eric : so you 're okay with letting her stay here ? nicole : honey , she 's your niece . i 'm fine with it if you are . eric : couple of months . it 's a big commitment . nicole : mm . eric : i mean , we do n't have a lot of space . nicole : no , that is true . it 's tight in here , but i think holly would love having allie around . look , we 'll make it work . eric : thank you . you know what ? you 're right . i think it 's gon na work out for the best , and allie , she 'll still be here with sami comes for the wedding . maybe i can help heal their relationship . nicole : i love your optimism , but it is easier said than done , even for you . eric : yeah . nicole : i know firsthand that mother - daughter relationships can be very ... complex . zoey : i appreciate everything that rafe has done for my nephew , but i am going to respect the wishes of my brother . despite the mistakes that he has made , christian is still david 's father . rafe : oh . you 're here already . zoey : i 'm sorry . it 's time . there 's a court - appointed officer outside to make sure that the handoff goes smoothly . rafe : right . well , okay . all right . hey , uh , all right , buddy . listen , uh , when we were talking before about how you were gon na go live with your aunt zoey , right ? david : yeah . rafe : yeah , and um , well , guess what . she 's -- she 's here to pick you -- pick you up now and take you home , okay ? but guess what . you know what i did n't tell you ? she 's got a son , and he 's about the same age as you are , and i hear he 's a great kid , so you guys are gon na -- you 're gon na have a lot of fun together . although , i hear her pancakes are n't as good as mine , so ... david : yeah . rafe : yeah . but you know i 'm gon na call you , and i 'm gon na come visit you as often as i can , 'cause you 're my guy . david : yeah . rafe : yeah , that 's right . you 're my guy . i love you so much . depression . justin : [ sighs ] the look on rafe 's face when i told him he lost custody of david , i might as well have stuck a knife into his heart . kayla : i 'm so sorry . justin : i was sure we had a win . i feel like i let him down . kayla : justin , you did everything you could . justin : well , it does n't make it any easier . kayla : i wish there was a way i could cheer you up . justin : i can think of a few things , but i do n't think we have time during lunch . kayla : no , i do n't think we do , but we can do this . justin : oh . mm . here 's another option . why do n't we set a wedding date ? there are a boatload of nuptials about to take place , and i think we better stake a claim as soon as possible . kayla : okay , let 's do it . justin : okay . small wedding . not too much to plan . why do n't we get married next month ? kayla : july ? justin : what 's wrong ? you already booked that month ? kayla : no , it 's just , um ... justin : oh , right . you and steve were married in july . john : so what do you want to talk about ? kayla ? steve : anything but . john : hold on . what 's happening about you getting her back ? steve : [ sighs ] it 's off the table . john : hey , come on , man . since when do you give up when it comes to the love of your life ? steve : since justin put a ring on her finger . john : he did ? steve : mm - hmm . john : so what are you gon na do about that ? steve : i thought i said i do n't wan na talk about kayla . john : oh , yeah , i 'm sorry , buddy , but you know , i was so damn sure that -- steve : dude . dude ! can we move on ? john : yeah . steve : [ sighs ] john : what the hell you want to talk about ? steve : black patch . i wan na come back to work , if that 's okay . john : are you kidding me , partner ? you are the `` patch `` part of black patch . steve : yes , i am . john : i 'd love to have you back . besides , you ca n't live on reward money forever . steve : reward money ? john : kate paid me a visit . she wants me to convince you and hope to accept the key to the city , and if you do that , they 're gon na throw in some cash . steve : wow . that woman really does n't give up , does she ?

[ rosanna laughs ] craig : the sky 's falling ? what ? rosanna : you . she was saying i should be careful about you . craig : margo -- of course you told her that 's absurd . `` no , no , no . craig treats me like a queen , with all the reverence and deference that one normally reserves for newborn babies and fine art . `` [ rosanna chuckles ] rosanna : i -- i did n't really put it that way . craig : did you tell her we 're together ? rosanna : well , you know , it was margo being margo . i really did n't think it was appropriate to say anything . craig : so you did n't confirm or deny ? rosanna : well , no . i just did n't want to push the issue , see ? craig : yeah . o -- okay . so so much for being honest and , uh , going public . unless you , uh -- unless you just were honest . rosanna : craig , i just do n't know if now is the right time . craig : do you have cab fare ? rosanna : what ? craig : do you ? rosanna : yes , i 'm sure i do . why ? craig : margo , would you please give my congratulations to -- to my sister ? margo : where are you going ? craig : i , uh -- just ca n't stay here . rosanna : i 'm so sorry , margo . i 'm sorry . brad : she 's not picking up her phone . henry : uh , well , she -- she probably just turned it off and forgot to turn it back on again . i do that all the time . i 'm sure she 'll be here soon . brad : really ? you 're sure ? then where is she ? margo : there 's still no word from katie ? brad : no . i want to know exactly where you left her and exactly what did she say . margo : all right . just calm down , brad . brad : no . why the hell did n't you bring her back here like you said you would ? [ scene_break ] katie : what now ? hello . who are you ? boy : you know . katie : my son . you 're my little boy . or at least you will be a few years from now . let me look at you . you 're so handsome . i can hardly wait to meet the baby version . that 's why i got to get up to that window and get out of here . you want to show me how to do that ? boy : you 're the one who shows me how to do things . you 're my mommy . katie : that 's right . i 'm gon na show you how to do a lot of fun things , like swim and climb a tree and ride a bike . boy : wo n't i be scared ? katie : maybe at first . but i 'll be there , and so you 'll want to do it for me , just like i want to figure out how we can climb up to that window and get out of here for you . i just have to figure out how . you 're such a smart boy . [ scene_break ] henry : uh , i was hoping , uh -- i think i made a mistake . brad : what mistake ? margo : henry , what did you do ? henry : uh , instead of getting a baby gift , a got a gift certificate to the spa at the hotel . i thought she was gon na make a reservation and come right here , but i -- i think she just decided to go -- go to the spa there and then . brad : why did n't you say that in the first place ? i could just -- i just give a call over there right now . henry : no , no , no , no . do n't do that . you 'll interrupt her -- her mud bath , her facial , whatever . she 'll get all worried . i 'll -- i 'll go get her there myself . come on . margo : w -- wait a minute . what if she 's not there ? henry : where else would she be ? margo : why do n't i go with you ? henry : no , no , no , no , no , no . she 'll be so disappointed if she found out that we had a big surprise party and she missed it . let -- let me go . brad : okay , okay , okay . jack and janet -- you know , they 're late . they 're not here anyway . so okay , why do n't you go get katie . you 'll get back , and then they 'll be here , and then we can still have the party . henry : that 's what i 'm talking about , all right ? ! so do n't cut that cake until i 'm back with the guest of honor . [ scene_break ] craig : we do n't have to come all the way in here to end it . you could have just left me in the car , and i could drive away . rosanna : is that what you think i want , really -- for this to be over ? craig : yes ! after your conversation with margo , yes . unless you just need to deny us in public . rosanna : i apologized for that ! craig : that 's not good enough ! sorry , it 's not . you 're ashamed of this . rosanna : i just did n't want to make an issue out of it with margo . i mean , she was so adamant about your bad - boy status . craig : and it never occurred to you to just stand up -- to just stand up for what we have ? rosanna : why does it matter so much what i did n't say to margo ? ! craig : because it matters to you ! you have one conversation with my sister , and suddenly , you 're looking at me differently . the -- the big question here is why is what margo thinks so important to you ? rosanna : i do n't care about what margo thinks . this is not about what margo thinks . this is about -- about what i think . wow , okay , you know what ? you want honesty . here you go . i 'm gon na give you a little honesty . you know the nightmares i 've been having . they 're about you . craig : you told me you did n't remember them . rosanna : oh , i remember them very well . trust me . i 'm in a car -- sound familiar ? -- driving along . and i look in the rearview mirror , and guess who i see in the -- in the car behind me ? and i 'm driving really fast , and then i pull over , and i -- i crash . i wake up , and i 'm in a cold sweat . craig : that 's grim . rosanna : yeah . yeah .

antonio : he 's dead . looks like he ate his gun . the commissioner 's down there now . daniel : suicide . well , that makes his confession a lot more powerful in court . looks like mcbain 's headed for a long stretch in statesville -- or worse . river : hey . hey , take it easy . no one 's going to know we 're underage . adriana : ok . viki : todd , i 'm -- i 'm very sorry . i -- i was looking for something in the pantry . what 's up ? todd : starr 's in trouble . viki : why ? what 's wrong ? todd : i do n't know , really . she 's been sending me messages that she 's afraid of something . and frankly , she does n't look so hot , either . viki : what do you mean , she does n't look so hot ? have you seen her ? todd , you are violating a court order if you see starr . i mean , how did you even manage that ? todd : ha . well , dorian had a bunch of workers over at her place , and i just threw on some overalls and a cap and nobody looked twice . viki : yeah , right . what if you 'd been caught ? do you ever think ? do n't you realize that this is exactly what has been poisoning your relationship with blair ? i do n't know how you ever expect to fix things with her if you keep on acting like this ! todd : i 'm not really into being lectured right now . viki : my god , you -- and you changed your face ! why ca n't you change the way you act ! when is it going to sink in that other people have feelings and they matter ? are you even listening to me ? daniel : i hope everybody knows that i do n't like seeing john mcbain go down for this , but the facts are the facts . antonio : i think we need to look in john 's theory that -- daniel : we do n't work for john mcbain . we work for the people of llantano county . antonio : yes , i understand that , but i think -- daniel : and officer phillips ' suicide lends a hell of a lot of credence to his story . john thought he can get away with murder . not in my town . antonio : i can use a cup of coffee . would you like a cup ? daniel : no , thank you , detective . antonio : what is wrong with colson ? he 's a lot worse than usual . officer : i have no idea . antonio : good luck . shannon : you know , i was at rooster 's 420 in new york . you know the club . and so me and my friends went to clay mines . i think it 's somewhere in the east village . i do n't know , but they both had really great bands . rex : rooster 's 420 got closed down . too much 420 . been down for months . you sure you 've been there ? shannon : yeah , sure . i mean it was a while back . but this place has got a totally great atmosphere . i love it -- rex : rex . shannon : shannon . rex : actually , this place is just the beginning for me . i 'm planning on opening up a whole string of clubs here , new york , philly , la - la land . shannon : yeah ? viki : i need an answer . todd : fine . maybe it was wrong to go see starr . viki : `` maybe `` ? no , not `` maybe . `` it was wrong . you screwed up , and if you want visitation rights , you can not screw up ! todd : i want more than visitation rights . i want my children back . viki : great , fine . then why do n't you start behaving like a responsible adult ? todd : ok ! viki : oh , for god sakes , i know that you love your children , i know it 's very hard to be separated , but you absolutely have to play by the rules ! what is starr so afraid of ? todd : i do n't know . says she 's afraid of the dark . she says she hears voices . she thinks somebody 's following her . viki : is she serious ? todd : sure , she 's serious . and who knows if blair had a clue ? you know , she trusts you , so would you please go see her and make sure she 's ok ? viki : well , of course i will . i 'll see her first thing tomorrow . todd : all right , thank you . i appreciate it . i 'm sorry i busted in here like this . it 's just -- viki : yeah , right . todd : all right , i 'll go . viki : wait a minute . i 'm going to go see starr , and i 'm going to do whatever i can for her . you know that , ok ? you have to promise me something in return . you have to promise me that you will stay away from starr and blair . you have to give her a little space ! todd : yeah , so she can go right after kevin ? viki : oh , todd , do n't do that ! my god , do n't you know that you have put blair through hell over and over again ? give her some time to sort it out , for god 's sakes . and stop being so stupidly jealous of kevin ! she 's not involved with him . get that through your head ! todd : all right ! take it easy ! [ viki sighs ] todd : viki , i 'm sorry . i did n't -- i did n't mean to get you all riled up like that . viki : yeah , right , ok , ok , forget it . todd : fine . she 's not going after kevin -- yet . viki : `` yet `` ? todd : `` yet . `` i will stay away from starr . please go see her for me . viki : i 'm going to . i told you i would . todd : ok . take it easy . take care of yourself . i 'm starting to get worried about you . viki : i thought you were upstairs . do n't tell me you heard all that . blair : yeah . viki : oh . blair : i heard . and i do know that starr is very scared . but i do n't know if it 's something that i 'm doing . am i destroying my little girl 's life because of who i am ? jessica : hey . antonio : hey . jessica : how 's john ? antonio : yeah , he 's fine , except all this damned evidence keeps piling up . you know , this whole idea of -- that haver 's responsible for everything that 's happened is a good theory , but i 'll tell you what -- it 's a hell of a thing to prove . jessica : i was thinking while you were gone , and -- well , haver 's an expert at hypnosis . antonio : yes , honey , we know that . jessica : yeah . well , i was thinking that maybe haver hypnotized the person who really shot him . sorry . you probably already thought of that and i 'm just being nosy . guess you did n't learn the lesson . antonio : no , you 're not being nosy . you 're being smart , and it 's in your journalistic genes . jessica : yeah , i guess so . what ? antonio : do you remember when haver did hypnosis on you ? jessica : well , i did n't at first , but after you let that doctor come in and take whatever haver did away -- antonio : so you remember what he said , what he did ? jessica : well , pretty much , yeah . antonio : i tell you what , honey , why do n't you tell me , ok ? any details . anything you can remember . blair : it 's just getting worse . i know that starr 's afraid to go into her room , and sometimes she wo n't go in there because she thinks there 's somebody bad in there . and then when she does go in , i mean , there 's coins and beads and stuff like that to ward off , like evil spirits . viki : talismans ? blair : no . at first , i thought maybe she was just afraid of todd . i mean , now she 's asking for his help , so none of that even makes sense . viki : well , neither does blaming yourself . look , you and todd and i are all agreed on one thing -- she needs help , and she 's going to get it , ok ? blair : oh , viki , i just do n't how could i let all this happen ? viki : well , that 's not your fault . blair : no , i 'm talking about the rape . you know , it does n't take a doctor to figure that out . i mean if there 's -- it did n't happen -- if the doctors were right , the tumor just made me misint -- you know , i do n't even want to go there . i 'm not even going to go there . viki : you may have to someday , you know blair : well , you know what ? someday i will , but not today . the way todd just -- you know , he thinks that i wanted rough sex that i was asking for it . you know , why in the world would i want to have rough sex with a man who lies to me over and over again ? shannon : hey , adriana . are n't you a little bit young to be in here ? river : hey , relax . and , you , whoever you are , we 're not here to drink . we 're here for midnight logic . shannon : so are you going to introduce me , or you think he 's too hot ? adriana : river carpenter , shannon mcbain . shannon : hi . river : hey . shannon : nice outfit , river . river : thanks . rex : ok , listen up and listen right . midnight logic is back and ultra violet is where they 're at . now , they 've got a new voice , but that same great sound , so please give it up for midnight logic ! [ cheers and applause ] riley : tonight is for flash . we love you , we miss you , and we ca n't wait till you 're back here with us . oh , you can bless me and tell me that i 'm good but just arrest me and charge me with the truth oh , when you guard me and keep me from my home but when you leave me tell me that i 'm loved sideways in all directions i can see it in my own reflection sideways in all directions natalie : rex , forget about her , please . i 'm telling you , she 's poison , i promise you . do n't give me that . i can see it all over your face . rex : well , you 've really got it in for jen tonight . natalie : i 'm telling you . i mean it . she gives me any trouble tonight , i 've had it . rex : what 's eating you ? all right , come on . you said that somebody 's in jail . not todd manning again ? really . natalie : no , it 's john mcbain , and he 's being set up to take the fall for killing stephen haver . rex : did he ? natalie : i told you , he was innocent ! rex : ok , ok . viki : you know , you and todd have been together and apart so many times over the past decade , i ca n't even keep count . blair : yeah . you and me both . viki : you hurt him terribly ; he hurts you terribly . something always draws you back together again . blair : oh , well , please , do n't say that it 's love , because what todd and i share is very destructive . and i do n't want him to destroy my children . viki : ok . did he really sound like he wanted to destroy starr when he was here just now ? blair : no . viki : no , of course not . blair , he 's changed his whole life for you -- blair : oh , yeah , he changed . he changed for me . he became a whole different person for me so that i would fall in love with him , and it was all a lie ! viki : yeah , but what would you have done if you knew it was todd ? blair : i would have run . i would have run as far away from this as possible . viki : earlier , you said you would have been very happy that he was alive . blair : i did not say that , viki i said an impost -- i mean , not todd -- it was an imposter ! viki : ok . [ blair sighs ] viki : but you still have n't answered my question . blair : what ? viki : do you think maybe inside you knew that it was todd all along ? that you still loved him and you still wanted him ? maybe ? blair : i do n't understand why you keep wanting to talk about all of this . viki : because it goes to the heart of what happened on new year 's eve . the thing is if you did somehow , deep inside you somewhere know that walker was todd and that you loved him , but you could n't accept it , well , then accusing him of rape would be the absolute perfect way to destroy your relationship . blair : no , no , no , no , no , no , no , no , no , no ! no , viki . no . viki : blair , i 'm not saying it 's your fault , ok ? i know it is not your fault . you had a medical condition that caused you to distort things . all i 'm suggesting is that maybe -- blair : is that i knew that walker was todd . i heard you . viki : is it possible ? blair : no , viki , no , and i am never going to accept that . viki : well , because if you did , you 'd have to admit that maybe you were wrong about what happened that night . blair : no . no . i -- i do n't know ! i do n't know ! viki : ok . then that 's -- that 's where you have to start . john : i do n't know . once haver gets them in that state of mind , they seem to do whatever he says . evangeline : but john , to set up his own execution ? john : you had to know haver -- one big , final dramatic gesture . evangeline : and he gets to bring you down with him . john : tough sell to a jury ? evangeline : to anyone . but if we can find some proof that haver hypnotized this police officer -- john : well , if there is any , i 'm sure bo or antonio will find it . evangeline : i hope so . guard ? look , i 'm sorry you have to stay here overnight . i 'm going to arrange for bail in the morning . john : no , do n't worry . i mean , actually , this place ai n't much worse than the hotel i 'm staying at . evangeline : then you should move . john : i 'm going to think about that . evangeline : ok . hang in there , ok ? john : i will . evangeline : see you in the morning . john : see you in the morning . i look forward to it . river : man , they really pulled it out tonight . adriana : yeah , there were great . shannon : you know , they could go places . river : yeah , everybody said that with flash gone and everything , they would n't do anything , but obviously not . shannon : no , they were great . very matchbox twenty - ish kind of -- river : i do n't -- i can see it , kind of , but i 'm more into smashing pumpkins and dishwalla and whatnot right now . shannon : the foo fighters -- you like the foo fighters , right ? river : well , yeah , totally . you ever heard ogrgreen velvet dream ? shannon : i have all their c.d.s . river : you 're kidding me . shannon : uh - uh . river : wow , that 's cool . officer : we 're heading out with two squad cars now . daniel : good . first , they 're to confine everybody on the premises and check for underage drinkers . then they 'll serve the warrants for the building code violations . officer : you got it . daniel : well , i guess you can kiss ultra violet goodbye , rex . jen : excuse me . hey , three drafts for the band . natalie : are you sure they 're for the band and not for you ? jen : excuse me ? natalie : so how many times have you been to the hospital for alcohol poisoning , jen ? jen : what is your problem ? natalie : you ! you 're my problem ! natalie : you know i am so sick and tired of watching you ruin everybody 's life ! jen : oh , here we go -- `` stay away from riley `` ? natalie : grow up ! jen : you know i 'm sick of listening to you . buzz off ! natalie : what ? you ca n't handle the truth ? oh -- oops ! did i get you all wet ?

viki : no , i do n't . i really do n't think he 's the same person . i think he has the same demons , and he always will have , but this is not the same man who raped marty saybrooke and who wanted to destroy his own life . this is a man who knows what love is and wants to hang on to it . blair : i got to go . thank you . viki : uh | todd arrives at viki 's house , and viki and todd argue about todd seeing starr . he tells viki that he is worried about starr , and asks viki to visit starr to see if she can help . blair comes back downstairs after todd leaves , and she and viki continue to talk about her relationship with todd , as well as starr 's issues . after blair leaves , viki nearly collapses . john agrees to allow evangeline to defend him , and the two discuss his case . antonio talks to jessica about being hypnotized . daniel prepares to raid ultraviolet , unaware that riley is playing there . natalie and jen finally come to blows at ultraviolet , and as rex is trying to break up the fight , the cops raid the place . todd meets with an employee from buchannon enterprises . after a drink , todd begins to flirt with her , and she starts talking about b.e . | <s>[INST] r.j. : my , my , do n't you look forlorn . lindsay : my life is a mess . r.j. : ok , i guess that means you expect to tell your problems to your friendly neighborhood bartender . well , go on . it usually begins with `` there was a man -- `` lindsay : `` a man , `` that 's right . there was a man . and what do i do ?

[ gasps ] hi ! caroline : actually , will gets to see his dad all the time . but , of course , it 's not the same as having both parents living together as a family . do n't you agree ? rick : all right . bye . maya : how 's eric ? rick : he 's starting to feel a little better . maya : well , i 'm sure being home helped . rick : yeah , it was the right call . maya : even if it was quinn 's . rick : yeah , that 's before when she thought that she was his wife , but she 's not , and she does n't get to make that call , not -- not regarding my father , not that ridge has that power of attorney . but enough about quinn . nicole and zende will be here any minute . i know we 've been talking about this for a while . just with everything going on with dad , it 's been -- pfft -- it 's crazy . maya : hey , hey , it 's okay . it 's happening now . nicole : hey , sorry we 're late . zende : so , what did we miss ? maya : bodies break , bodies heal . eric 's is healing . and we 're all hanging on to that . rick : yeah . you see , that 's why i married this beautiful soul . she 's not even just an amazing wife . she 's an amazing mother . maya : yeah . something that i would never have known if it were n't for you , nicole . i know that we have said this many , many times , but i wo n't stop saying it . i could never thank you , both of you , enough for the joy of lizzy in our lives . thomas : every situation 's different , i guess . caroline : that 's true . but if a child could have both parents -- thomas : that 's something douglas is never gon na have to worry about . we 're always gon na be there for him . caroline : of course . but if we could be there for him and be living together as a family , that 's even better , right ? thomas : i think your mommy 's trying to make a point . caroline : i said some things the other day that i think might have thrown you . but now that you 've had a chance to think about them ... i mean , is it really so difficult to imagine what was n't possible before ? and not just imagine it but -- but make it happen . i really want you and me to be a family with douglas . but i need to hear you say you want it , too . [ douglas coos ] [ douglas babbling ] wyatt : i know that you 're upset . but tell me that you 're sticking it out , despite me having to go to my mother . steffy : come on . you had to know that this was gon na happen . my grandfather is at quinn 's mercy again , and my family -- they 're devastated . wyatt : this is n't about your family , steffy ! this is about us ! you and me ! and whether we can -- we can stick it out with everything that 's been thrown at us ! steffy : i 've tried ! we 've both tried ! wyatt : so , what ? are you done trying now ? is that it ? well , i 'm not ! i wo n't stop trying until you tell me that it 's pointless ! does n't that mean anything to you ? steffy : of course it means something to me ! god , i hate where we are right now , but i just -- i honestly -- i ca n't see us moving forward because your mom is such a huge factor ! can you just tell me that -- that your mom is gon na leave town , is gon na leave my granddad , and just tear up those papers ? if you tell me that , then -- then we have a chance . wyatt : and what if i ca n't ? we do n't ? steffy , i got to know right here , right now . sasha : oh . i 'm interrupting . i 'll -- i 'll come back . thomas : no , no , no , it 's okay . dougie boy and i , we 're just catching up . were n't we , big guy ? [ growls ] caroline : yeah , you know what ? um , we should probably get going anyway . i 'm sure you and sasha have work to talk about . and it is almost douglas ' nap time . thomas : oh , come on . we were just about to throw back a couple of brews and watch a game . were n't we ? [ chomping ] sasha : you really are so cute with him . thomas : thank you . caroline : all right . thomas : okay . back to your mommy . caroline : [ gasps ] thomas : hey , you take good care of your mommy , okay ? caroline : oh , yes , he always does . thomas : all right . caroline : oh , yes . think about , um , what i said . thomas : [ clears throat ] yeah . caroline : bye . see you , sasha . sasha : see you . thomas : what ? sasha : nothing . just ... you 're just adorable with him , and you 're a really awesome dad . [ both whispering ] nicole : okay . is it just me or is there something going on here ? rick : what do you mean ? nicole : i do n't know exactly . you invite zende and me out to eat , which is nice , but , um ... you know , never mind . i 'm being -- i do n't know what i 'm being . let 's , um , just forget it . it 's fine . rick : i know you said you wanted to wait till after you ate , but ... why do n't you tell them ? maya : i do n't think i can . zende : tell us what ? nicole : is everything okay ? wyatt : i know you know this , but i have -- i have always tried to respect your wishes and protect you with every chance that i got . do i -- do i wish that my mother had n't have gotten involved with eric ? yeah . do i wish that ridge had n't lied about having power of attorney so that i did n't have to go to my mother ? yes ! but can you just -- just for a second allow that my mother really is different now that she 's been with eric . steffy : she 's not -- she 's not different . she says that she 's changed , but my grandfather almost died because that woman 's in his life . wyatt : god , it was a brain hemorrhage , steffy ! it was a medical condition ! she was n't even in the room when he collapsed ! you and your family were ! [ sighs ] steffy : oh , my god . i ca n't -- i ca n't believe what -- wyatt : that 's not what i -- i did n't -- steffy : yeah , you did . you said it . wyatt : [ sighs ] i just -- i hate that we 're doing this right now ! i hate that this is happening ! like , i hate that my mother is just hanging over my head all the time and our relationship ! we 're newlyweds ! this is supposed to be the happiest time of our lives right now , and instead ever since we exchanged vows , i 've been dealing with ... you -- you just -- you moved back in again . steffy : [ voice breaking ] because i finally completely believed that your mom was out of my life , out of my family 's life ! wyatt : yeah , well , that 's not gon na happen , so ... where do we stand ? this where you want to be ? you want us to be with our -- our home , our life ? thomas : i want to be the kind of father that my grandfather is . my dad , too , but we 're still working on our issues . sasha : ah . you mean between you and caroline . like the night douglas was conceived ? thomas : even now when i - i look back to the events that led up to that night , i was trying to win back her heart . and the fact that anybody would -- would think that i 'm capable of taking advantage of anyone like that , let alone -- let alone caroline , it makes me sick . sasha : well , yeah . i mean , you said you did n't -- you had no signs that she was impaired . you did n't know she 'd been taking pills . thomas : how -- how could i ? how could anyone know that ? she was distraught . she 'd -- she 'd been drinking , and i came over and ... we drank a lot . sasha : yeah , i know . and i also know the kind of guy you are . yeah , you 're a playboy . whatever . but you respect women too much to ever cross the line that way . and that 's what makes this even harder . having to end things between you and me . nicole : it 's not lizzy , right ? she 's okay ? maya : oh , no , no . she 's okay . she 's happy and healthy . rick : growing bigger every day . maya : yeah , in fact , we still marvel at how much joy she 's brought into our lives already . zende : i 'm pretty sure that 's what nicole had in mind when she agreed to be your surrogate . rick : one day lizzy 's gon na know what a loving thing her auntie did for her . maya : you gave us the greatest gift imaginable , honey . we feel so blessed . to ask you for anything else feels ... but we just want to know if it 's an option , you know , now -- now that rick and lizzy and i are a family . nicole : what option ? maya : to give lizzy a little brother or sister . rick : we know it sounds crazy . maya : and we probably do n't even have the right to ask . rick : but you 've brought so much joy to our lives . maya : would you consider doing it again ? steffy : you already know the answer . it 's why i married you . of course i want to be with you . i want to be in this house with you . if i did n't , this would n't be so hard . wyatt : all because of my mother . steffy : your mom is living in my grandfather 's house . and now she has power of attorney . it 's like she has complete control . and you may think this is the right thing telling her , but you have no idea what kind of damage she could do . wyatt : she is n't even thinking about that , steffy . she just wants to be with her husband and help him through this crisis ! steffy : yes , yes ! this is a crisis ! this is a medical crisis for my grandfather ! this is a crisis for the company ! this is a crisis for my family ! i mean , us forresters have never experienced anything like this before . her presence is toxic ! her -- her past is toxic ! she 's dangerous , and you know all of this , and yet you still told her ! and that just tells me that ... that your mom is always gon na be in our lives . look , this -- this is n't easy for me . but i ca n't put up with this any longer . [ birds chirping ] thomas : you 're ending things ? sasha : um ... yeah . you know , i mean , it 's not like there 's much to end . [ chuckles ] you know , we were just hanging out , having a few laughs , enjoying each other . it 's not like we were hot and heavy or anything . [ clears throat ] but , you know , even if we were , i could never get in the way of a father and his child , especially when i know what it 's like to grow up without a dad . yeah , so , um , that 's it . you 'll -- you 'll get back together with caroline and you 'll sort everything out and things will be the way they were meant to be . thomas : hey . what about you ? sasha : i 'll -- i 'll be fine ! [ voice breaking ] yeah , i 'll -- i 'll bounce back . i 'll be okay . like i said , we were just , you know , hanging out . we were n't anything . i mean , yeah , i 'd be lying if i said i did n't think we could have been something special , but ... your son needs you . and you need him . so go . go be a father to your son . make a family for him . maya : i 'm sure this seems like it 's coming out of nowhere , but it -- it really is n't . rick : yeah , we 've been thinking about having another child for a while , giving lizzy a little brother or sister . maya : not that we want you to feel pressure in any way , but you know the joy of having a sibling , someone to play with . rick : yeah . and having them gang up on your parents with your auntie . maya : and that way we know that lizzy will never be alone and that she 'll always have family . and you know the bond between a brother or sister , sisters when they become best friends like we are . so we just want to know how you feel . rick : yeah , we want to know how zende feels about it , too , given everything that happened last time . maya : we know that being our surrogate caused issues in your relationship , i mean , issues that you 've worked through , but if there is any worry at all , tell us , because there are other options that we can pursue . rick : and before we go down that road , we thought we would ask . maya : but if you say no , we 'll never raise it again . rick : we know it 's a lot to ask . as a parent , though , you just want to give your child the best life possible . maya : lizzy 's a miracle , and it 's a miracle that we would n't have had if it were n't for you , nicole . so if there 's any way that you would be willing to give lizzy a little brother or sister ... just think about it ? that 's all we 're asking . wyatt : do n't do that . do n't paint our marriage into a corner . steffy : quinn did that . every time she defied my warnings to stay away from me and my family , she would just come -- come back over and over and over . wyatt : i know that ! that 's why i tried to get her to stop ! because i knew that if i did n't , we would be right here in this exact position , standing here ! steffy , i love you . i just -- i feel like we 're being pulled apart here through no fault of our own . steffy : i know . i know . [ sighs ] we 've had so many incredible experiences . and i 'm always gon na cherish that . but we need to be real . we need -- we need ... god , we need to be honest with ourselves . i mean , i do n't know if we would have been married if it were n't for your mom and her manipulations . wyatt : yeah , okay . yes . it was a manipulation . she manipulated us into getting to the altar , but at the end of the day , it was our feelings for each other that got us through it . you even said yourself . you would n't have said those vows if you did n't love me . steffy : of course , i love you ! i am always , always gon na love you . and maybe we might have wound up together , but we 're never gon na know because of quinn . there 's so many things -- so many things we 're never gon na know because of quinn , and i want to believe things are gon na be different , but i know her , and i know she 's not gon na change . and i know you . and if you 're honest with yourself , you know she 's not gon na change , too . we have held on for so long , and i have honored you and you 've honored me . we 've honored our marriage . i do n't see any other way . i 'm sorry . [ sighs ] wyatt : steffy , do n't . do n't walk out on me . s - steff -- [ door closes ] steffy : [ inhales deeply ] | wyatt is exasperated with steffy . she says now that quinn knows she is the poa and not her dad that she will be more involved in the company and their lives than before . he says he will fight to his last breath for their marriage ; the question is will she or is she ready to walk away ? caroline sits and watches thomas hold and play with douglas . she says it is working out only temporarily of course that she is staying with her uncle bill . he gets to see his son , will , all the time , but it is not like living together as a family . as they talk she keeps steering it back to that she would really like them to be a family with douglas . sasha is about to go in the door when she hears this and ducks back out . caroline tells thomas that she needs to hear him say that he wants that too . wyatt tells steffy that he needs to hear her say that she will stick their marriage out . when she brings it up again about her family he rails at her this is not about her family . it is about the two of them and if they can stick it out with all that has been thrown at them . she says they have tried . he says he will not stop trying until she tells him it is pointless . she says she does not like where it is right now but quinn is such a huge factor that she can not see her leaving town right now . if she does or tears up the papers then they have a chance . he says he has to know right now . nicole and zende join rick and maya at the outdoor restaurant . they have been mulling over asking nicole an important question but eric 's circumstances kept them all busy and they had not gotten together . wyatt laments to steffy that he has always tried to respect her wishes and protect her every chance that he got . and he wishes his mom had not gotten involved with eric or that ridge had n't lied so he was forced to tell his mom . but ca n't steffy just allow that his mom is really different now . steffy says she is not different . her grandfather almost died because of that woman . he barks again that it was a brain hemorrhage , a medical condition and quinn was not even in the room when it happened . eric 's family was ! she takes umbrage to that . he says he does not like this at all . they are newlyweds and should be enjoying themselves and now she has just moved back in and look how divided they are . quinn is still in their lives and probably always will be . | <s>[INST] wyatt : you know i love you . steffy : of course . it 's never been about that . wyatt : so then , why -- why ca n't it only be about that ? steffy : how can we do that when your mom 's more involved in our lives than ever ? wyatt : [ sighs ] steffy : especially now she knows that my grandfather 's power of attorney is hers and not my dad 's . wyatt : [ sighs ] i had to tell her , steffy . steffy : even if it cost you and me everything ? wyatt : hey , i will fight till my last breath for us , for our marriage . the question is , will you ? or will you walk away ? thomas : [ smooching ] caroline : so did i tell you that our son has started solid foods ? thomas : ooh . solid foods like a t - bone steak , huh ? caroline : you sound like uncle bill . next thing i know , he 's gon na be offering douglas a cigar and brandy after dinner .

[ sighs ] we 've had so many incredible experiences . and i 'm always gon na cherish that . but we need to be real . we need -- we need ... god , we need to be honest with ourselves . i mean , i do n't know if we would have been married if it were n't for your mom and her manipulations . wyatt : yeah , okay . yes . it was a manipulation . she manipulated us into getting to the altar , but at the end of the day , it was our feelings for each other that got us through it . you even said yourself . you would n't have said those vows if you did n't love me . steffy : of course , i love you ! i am always , always gon na love you . and maybe we might have wound up together , but we 're never gon na know because of quinn . there 's so many things -- so many things we 're never gon na know because of quinn , and i want to believe things are gon na be different , but i know her , and i know she 's not gon na change . and i know you . and if you 're honest with yourself , you know she 's not gon na change , too . we have held on for so long , and i have honored you and you 've honored me . we 've honored our marriage . i do n't see any other way . i 'm sorry . [ sighs ] wyatt : steffy , do n't . do n't walk out on me . s - steff -- [ door closes ] steffy : [ inhales deeply ]Summarize.[/INST]wyatt is exasperated with steffy . she says now that quinn knows she is the poa and not her dad that she will be more involved in the company and their lives than before . he says he will fight to his last breath for their marriage ; the question is will she or is she ready to walk away ? caroline sits and watches thomas hold and play with douglas . she says it is working out only temporarily of course that she is staying with her uncle bill . he gets to see his son , will , all the time , but it is not like living together as a family . as they talk she keeps steering it back to that she would really like them to be a family with douglas . sasha is about to go in the door when she hears this and ducks back out . caroline tells thomas that she needs to hear him say that he wants that too . wyatt tells steffy that he needs to hear her say that she will stick their marriage out . when she brings it up again about her family he rails at her this is not about her family . it is about the two of them and if they can stick it out with all that has been thrown at them . she says they have tried . he says he will not stop trying until she tells him it is pointless . she says she does not like where it is right now but quinn is such a huge factor that she can not see her leaving town right now . if she does or tears up the papers then they have a chance . he says he has to know right now . nicole and zende join rick and maya at the outdoor restaurant . they have been mulling over asking nicole an important question but eric 's circumstances kept them all busy and they had not gotten together . wyatt laments to steffy that he has always tried to respect her wishes and protect her every chance that he got . and he wishes his mom had not gotten involved with eric or that ridge had n't lied so he was forced to tell his mom . but ca n't steffy just allow that his mom is really different now . steffy says she is not different . her grandfather almost died because of that woman . he barks again that it was a brain hemorrhage , a medical condition and quinn was not even in the room when it happened . eric 's family was ! she takes umbrage to that . he says he does not like this at all . they are newlyweds and should be enjoying themselves and now she has just moved back in and look how divided they are . quinn is still in their lives and probably always will be .</s> | 5,631 |
kristen : nicole , how nice to see you . nicole : well , i got ta tell you , cupcake , i 'm not sure if it 's gon na be so nice . [ scene_break ] marlena : brady , i do n't like talking about the foolish decisions that kristen got me to make . i think , someday , you 'll feel the same way . brady : do n't start with that . i 've had enough of that today , please . marlena : i ca n't stop . i think , one day , you and i will pay a terrible price . brady : so more scare tactics , right ? marlena : what does that mean ? brady : eric does n't want me to be with kristen , so he boots me off the advisory board . dad does n't want me to be with kristen , so he -- he takes off to pay me back . and you do n't want me to be with kristen , so you 're going to prophesize doom . marlena : you think that your father left to punish you ? brady : you both want me to fall in line , because it 's obviously impossible that the two of you can accept the fact that kristen makes me happy . marlena : happy enough to be without everybody else in your life ? brady : it 's like every relative of mine has lined up to take a number to tell me off . [ cell phone rings ] marlena : oh , brady -- brady : oh . looks like eric is ready for round two . hey , father . eric : i need you to come back to the rectory . there 's one more thing we need to settle .

[ scene_break ] daniel : you want to move in here . chloe : yeah , it makes sense , does n't it ? i mean , we want parker to get to know his daddy , and know that he 's part of a family . the two of us moving in here is the best way to make that happen . [ scene_break ] kristen : well , come in . nicole : i want to talk about brady . kristen : well , i 'm sure you do . everybody 's got an opinion . nicole : i love brady , but when it comes to women , he 's sadly stupid . kristen : wait a second . you 're right . was n't he once involved with you ? nicole : oh , gosh . yeah , you may be able to fool him , but not me . kristen : really ? nicole : 'cause we both know you 're a phony bitch . kristen : ooh . well , i guess it takes one to know one , right ? [ scene_break ] brady : so you 've seen the error of your ways , and you want to beg me to come back and chair the board ? eric : no . brady : is it about going after that one lost sheep ? eric : before i can replace you , we need a formal letter of resignation . i need to get a replacement . we have no time to waste on our fund - raising . brady : i would n't worry about the fund - raising , eric . even though kristen and i are persona non grata lately , dimera and titan are still going to support the school and the church . eric : thank you . brady : it 's got to be thrilling for you , huh ? i mean , you 're going to have all this money rolling in without the unpleasantness of having to see me on an ongoing basis . eric : you know , you seem to be enjoying this . 'cause i 'm not . brady : i 'm not enjoying it , either . but like i told marlena earlier , i 'm not going to fall apart . i do n't care what anybody thinks . and i 'm going to live my life my way . eric : or the kristen dimera way . [ scene_break ] kristen : you just called me a phony bitch . i 'm going to have to rethink my entire existence . nicole : well , maybe you should think about brady . because of you , he lost john , and marlena , who is like a mother to him , his sister , his brother -- kristen : i know , i know . it 's -- it 's horrible . i never wanted it to happen . nicole : and you do n't plan things , either , do you ? you do n't roll over anyone who gets between you and what you want , and brady is your soul mate , and coincidentally , the perfect means to hurt john and marlena . kristen : oh . thankfully , he does n't think that 's what i 'm doing . nicole : oh , my god . because it 's too painful for him to face what a fool he 's been . i mean , my god , he 's even had to develop self - induced amnesia . kristen : i do n't know what that means . nicole : yeah , you know , okay . let me just back up a little bit here , okay . do you know how i know what you did to get marlena away from john ? that secret little room where you tried to kill her , you stole susan 's baby , and my favorite one , bringing roman back from the dead -- do you know ? that is how i know everything . because brady told me . kristen : okay , well , i know there was a time when he was n't my biggest fan . nicole : well , now he has to pretend to forget so he can do this with you . kristen : no , he has n't forgotten anything . he just knows that i 'm a different person now . nicole : just like i know there 's zero calories in vodka . kristen : and i 've never denied that i 've made mistakes . nicole : neither did stalin . kristen : okay , when it comes to mistakes , it seems that maybe you 're the past master there , though , right ? [ scene_break ] hope : do you think daniel sees that chloe 's out to get him ? okay , what is it that you 're not telling me ? jennifer : you know what , hope , daniel has so many incredible qualities . he 's a master surgeon . he does the best imitation of scooby - doo . he 's so incredibly sweet to his mom -- hope : he is . jennifer : yeah , but you know what ? he does n't see some women for who they are . look at nicole . she had him coming and going . hope : oh , yeah . there 's definitely a breed of women out there who really know how to work that sir galahad streak in men . jennifer : right , yes . and nicole is not even the mother of his son . so i think that i would be really stupid to underestimate chloe . [ scene_break ] daniel : hey , how about a little building time with your blocks , huh ? what do you say ? 'cause mommy and i , know what we 're going to do ? we are going to have a little -- a little chat . okay ? there you go . okay , you 're -- you 're kind of scaring me here , because what you said about moving in here , the way you said it , you said it like as if it were actually possible or realistic . chloe : i think it is . daniel : no , it 's not . we are divorced . we are no longer married . look , i am in love with jennifer . this is not some kind of scenario that calls for me to have a roommate , and certainly not you . chloe : i was n't thinking about myself . i 'm thinking about parker . if we all live under the same roof , he 'll know what it 's like to be part of a family . i 'm sorry if you think i have some ulterior motive , but that 's all i meant . [ scene_break ] eric : i am so glad you came to see me . marlena : me too . tell me , how was it with brady ? eric : not great . marlena : yeah . i was afraid of that . i guess i was just hoping -- eric : hoping what ? about accepting his resignation ? marlena : no . hoping that he has not isolated himself from so much of our family . he 's so -- he 's so defensive around me , and now -- eric : well , he 's defensive with me too . very , that `` i do n't need anyone anymore . `` marlena : yeah . it 's just all a mess , is n't it ? eric : mom , i just hope you understand , i ca n't keep him and kristen on the board . we 're a catholic church . marlena : i know , i - i do . i do understand . i - i think this just might be a gradual wake - up call for brady . you know , having lost madison , i do n't want him losing any more . eric : mom , how much have you lost in all this ? i mean , as vulnerable as brady was , a very unpriestly part of me just wanted to deck brady for what he has done to you . marlena : oh , sweetie . i ca n't blame brady . so much of this is already my own fault . [ scene_break ] kristen : it does seem a little hypocritical . i mean , that you would come in here and say , `` oh , do n't hurt poor brady , `` when , did n't you dump poor brady for ej ? and then did n't you also dump eric for lucas , so you could get your hands all over kate roberts ' money ? but nothing compares to you jumping into the marital bed with victor kiriakis . really ? really ? nicole : okay , i was awful . i was bad . but i have and always will be a loyal friend to brady . kristen : i believe you , nicole . i do . i think you 're here because you 're concerned about him . i also think you 're here because you 're bored , 'cause your life is so empty . so , clearly , you have a past . i have a past . but there 's one big difference . nicole : and what 's that ? kristen : my past is my past . see , i 've changed . was n't that you , wandering around horton square , knowing that your baby had died ? nicole : do n't go there . kristen : did n't you set the whole thing up so that jennifer had to take the blame for it ? nicole : i am warning you , kristen , do n't -- kristen : it seems to me that you are still that woman that thinks that little , innocent babies are just a means to an end . nicole : you bitch . kristen : ooh . now you just made another serious mistake . nicole : oh , did i ? kristen : mm - hmm . you should never , ever raise your hand to a dimera unless you 're willing to pay the consequences , nicole . nicole : oh , i 'm trembling . kristen : you know what ? i think i 've been pretty tolerant of you , and you know why ? i know you care about brady . but you are so completely insignificant to me that you 're not even worth the energy it takes to react . i 'm going to let go of your arm , and you 're going to walk out of here , if you know what 's good for you . nicole : i never know what 's good for me . you vicious bitch . kristen : [ gasps ] [ both struggling ] brady : nicole ! nicole , damn it ! nicole , get off her . what the hell are you doing ? kristen : she 's not on her meds . nicole : oh , not on my meds ? you can call me every name in the book , but do n't you ever , ever say i would never love my babies , ever . brady : all right , come on . neutral corners , out here . nicole , get your butt out here . nicole : god , she 's a bitch . brady : what are you doing ? nicole : you 're sleeping with a stone cold bitch . brady : hey , listen ! you do something like that again and our friendship is done . do you understand me ? nicole : yeah , what 's losing a friend compared to losing your mother , your father , your brother ? brady : nicole , i 'm not going to listen to this right now . nicole : no , come on . she is not worth it . and in your heart , brady , you know she 's not . brady : you are wrong . you are all wrong about her . kristen : brady , what am i doing to you ? [ scene_break ] eric : how is this your fault ? marlena : i tried to help brady see the truth about kristen . and i ended up losing john . eric : mom . what on earth are you talking about ? [ scene_break ] jennifer : so after being married to jack for so many years , who i loved with my whole heart , it is kind of nice to be with someone who 's not so complicated . hope : yeah . i can see that . jennifer : and that being said , really , the only time i 've ever seen daniel bitter is -- is when he talks about not being able to watch melanie grow up , and he feels guilty for this horrible man that was her father . hope : and here 's chloe on his doorstep . jennifer : yeah . and i 'm trying to be fair , i -- hope : oh , yes , fair . way , way too fair , cuz . jennifer : and i know that , from chloe 's point of view , it would be better for her son for them to be back together . hope : oh , yeah . it would kind of work out really nicely for her too , do n't you think ? jennifer : you do n't like her , do you ? hope : i -- i do n't think she 's evil . i just think she 's weak . and a whole lot of people have been hurt by that weakness . jennifer : but at the same time , i think she 's very strong for her son . she told me the whole story , the whole thing that happened with daniel , and you know what ? it was wrong , and it was very unfair . and if i were her ? hope : mm - hmm ? jennifer : i would want daniel back too . i understand -- hope : stop , stop , stop , stop , stop , stop , stop , stop . that 's it , no . i will not let you talk yourself into this . no , you 're not talking like that . [ scene_break ] daniel : we need to talk about something that we have n't really addressed since you came back . please . chloe : [ sighs ] daniel : the fact that parker is my son , i could not hope for better news . but we need to clear the air about the two of us . chloe : wait , did you hear something about me ? daniel : there 's more ? chloe : no , you know everything . daniel : now , see , i 'm not quite so sure about that . because i happen to know that you did n't get back with philip when you left salem , or anyone else . and now , you 're talking about moving in here as if that were the next logical step . chloe : for parker . daniel : but we 're not talking about parker . we are talking about us . now , i want you to be honest . honest . deep down , is there any part of you that wishes that we could get back together ? chloe : of course , there is . [ scene_break ] brady : i 'm sick of people piling on when it comes to kristen , all right ? i mean , i do n't even talk to most of my family right now , nicole , so it would n't be a big , big deal if i did n't speak to you either , okay ? and that 's what 's gon na happen if you pull a stunt like this again . nicole : oh , my god . oh , my god . so -- so eric , your brother , he 's just -- he 's nothing to you now . brady : no , no , listen . priest or no priest , he has no right to -- to judge me . nicole : so you 're doing the woman who tried to kill his mother ? okay , wait . all right , all right , all right . brady : what ? nicole : wait . you know me and my big mouth . i 'm sorry . but this is n't about me and kristen . this is about you . and i came here to tell her what this is doing to your family . you should see eric . it 's killing him , and i know it 's killing you . brady , please , trust me . she does n't care about you . she only cares about herself . brady : you 're wrong . you 're wrong . [ scene_break ] kristen : i tried to keep it together , it 's just -- she was certifiable . brady : no , she 's upset . kristen : well , she came in here and attacked me . brady : you know , kristen , she 's been through a lot . i think you should cut her some slack . kristen : are you defending her ? kristen : nicole came in here , and she physically attacked me , and you want me to cut her slack ? brady : you know , kristen , listen . this has n't been the best day for me . you know , i 've spent the last week running around , defending you 24/7 . most of my interpersonal relationships in this town are very , very strained as a result of my relationship with you . kristen : i 'm aware of that . brady : but that woman out there in the hallway , nicole , she did just lose a baby . as a matter of fact , it 's her second one in a short amount of time . i was there for the first one , and i 've never seen anyone in so much pain and agony in my life . so if she gave you a hard time just now , i think you should just , you know , get over it . just let it go . and another thing , knowing you , i saw your face when i came into this room , and i heard what nicole was saying , and i 'm pretty sure that you gave as good as you got . kristen : so i was just supposed to stand there and take it ? that 's not who i am , and it never will be . now , i 'm aware that nicole is clearly a basket case , but she does n't deserve your protection or your sympathy , brady . i think you just need to steer clear of her from now on . what is that look for ? brady : you 're jealous , are n't you ? kristen : why do you keep asking me if i 'm jealous of people ? i 'm not jealous of chloe , and i 'm not jealous of nicole . why would i be jealous of the most unstable person in salem ? brady : good question . why are you ? [ scene_break ] marlena : john thinks i went too far in trying to show brady the truth about kristen . eric : okay , and after he found out , he put brady in the hospital , and you went too far ? marlena : i know , i know . but he thinks that . eric : sorry . marlena : i did n't come here for a shoulder to cry on . eric : well , you are welcome to . marlena : i 'm going to let you get back to work . eric : let me walk you out . marlena : okay . nicole : oh , hi . i 'm sorry , i did n't mean to interrupt . marlena : not at all . i was just leaving . nicole : nice to see you . marlena : yeah . eric : i 'm going to walk her out . nicole : okay . hmm . so it sounds like kristen is the hot topic of the day . but it seems like you 're giving up the fight , marlena . perhaps it 's time to bring in the reserves . so you want the truth about kristen to come out , huh ? but you are too good and noble to realize , doc , that sometimes , it takes a lie ... to get at the truth . `` brady black , ceo of titan industries . `` `` kristen blake dimera , vp of dimera enterprises . `` aw . lovers and competitors .

[ scene_break ] chloe : look , i -- i know that probably freaked you out , but you 're right . we have to be totally honest with each other . daniel : yeah , i think we do . chloe : see , it took me a long time to realize that it was n't that i slept with philip . it 's that i lied about it over and over . i do n't think i 've ever been that unhappy in my life . and i know that you sensed something was wrong , as hard as i tried to act normal . daniel : i could tell that something was -- was different . chloe : of course , you did . and all the terrible things i did after i lost you , it 's -- well , it 's 'cause i lost myself . so of course i lost you . i remember living in this apartment , and waking up with you next to me every day , and it 's the first time in my life i really felt like i was at home . and you 're right . i - i have n't been with philip , or any other man , since i left salem . but that 's because i live to be a good mother to parker . and no other man , and no other life , could possibly touch what i had then . so of course i want that back . i think about it every day . i do n't think that you even remember it . daniel : yes . yes , i do . [ scene_break ] kristen : i 'm not jealous of nicole or anybody else , okay ? i can tell that she 's out of control , and it 's because she does n't like the idea of you being with anybody when she 's so alone . i 'm convinced of it . brady : so your solution is to tell me to turn my back on her ? i do n't think either one of us likes to take direct orders , kristen . kristen : you know what ? i admit it . i was upset , okay ? and my words did n't come out right . she 's in trouble . i do n't want her using you . brady : kristen , i can take care of myself . i always have . kristen : i know . brady , you know what ? honey , let 's not do this , okay ? i know you 're having a really rough day . john 's leaving town , right ? brady : yeah , i 'm going to miss all the great times we have together . kristen : well , i am worried about you . i know what being with me is doing to you . brady : well , like i just told nicole in the hallway , everyone is wrong about you . they 're all wrong . and you 're right . we should n't let other people get between us . kristen : i know . we ca n't . brady : well , as much as i 'd like to stay here and cement this little detente , i have a company to run . kristen : [ laughs ] i have a company to run too . we can detente later , right ? guess what . i think you need to have this . brady : i think so too . kristen : all right . you keep it , and if you get here before i 'm home , then just make yourself comfortable . brady : that sounds like a good plan . you know what ? i wonder who 's going to get on my case next . kristen : ouch . [ scene_break ] nicole : i noticed brady 's resignation on the desk , and getting his signature could n't have been fun . eric : well , we did n't have another fight . he 's just all , `` nothing matters but kristen . `` nicole : that really had to hurt a lot . eric : it 's tough . i mean , he 's so delusional about what -- it 's just tearing the whole family apart . nicole : can i ask you something ? do you need a similar letter signed by kristen ? eric : yeah , i have to have her resignation in writing before i can replace her . nicole : well , why do n't you let me handle that ? eric : if you do n't mind . i mean , 'cause i really just do n't want to see this child of god for a very , very long time . nicole : consider it done . eric : you know what ? i 'm really sorry . i just -- i need to get an aspirin . nicole : okay . i 'll track her down and get this back as soon as i can . eric : okay , thanks . nicole : sure . but before kristen and i go for round two , there 's someplace i have to stop first .

[ scene_break ] eric : so you think kristen engineered all of this ? hope : she 's been causing problems for your mom and john ever since she got back to salem . eric : i just find it very hard to believe , knowing what they know , that she could succeed . you know what ? apparently , it was n't just kristen . my mom implied that she did something that really bothered john . but she would n't tell me what it was . [ scene_break ] kristen : so is john really gone ? i mean , seriously ? marlena : yes , he is . kristen : oh . marlena : so now , maybe you 'll stop torturing brady . kristen : torturing him ? why would i want to torture somebody i love ? marlena : oh , you do n't love him . kristen : do n't be so sure about that . i do love him . and i 'm hoping we 're going to be together for a very , very long time . [ scene_break ] nicole : yes . okay . daniel : nicole . nicole : hi . um -- what are you doing here ? daniel : i was about to ask you the same thing . nicole : well , i 'm -- i 'm just waiting for brady , that 's all . daniel : really ? nicole : what , you do n't believe me ? daniel : well , uh , i guess i do n't . because it 's real clear there 's something you 're not telling me . | nicole showed up at kristen 's place to talk about brady . they ended up getting verbal jabs in on each other . chloe thought it would be a great idea for her and parker to move in with daniel . daniel did n't think it was realistic for her to move in with him . chloe used parker as an excuse to move in with daniel . nicole and kristen continued to argue and were about to come to blows when brady showed up . brady threatened to end his friendship with nicole if she did n't leave kristen alone . kristen eavesdropped on their conversation . jennifer and hope talked about daniel and chloe at the hospital . daniel asked chloe if there was a part of her that wanted him back . chloe admitted that a part of her wanted him back . nicole warned brady that kristen did n't care about him . brady walked away and went back to kristen . | <s>[INST] kristen : nicole , how nice to see you . nicole : well , i got ta tell you , cupcake , i 'm not sure if it 's gon na be so nice .

[ cell phone rings ] marlena : oh , brady -- brady : oh . looks like eric is ready for round two . hey , father . eric : i need you to come back to the rectory . there 's one more thing we need to settle .

[ scene_break ] daniel : you want to move in here . chloe : yeah , it makes sense , does n't it ? i mean , we want parker to get to know his daddy , and know that he 's part of a family . the two of us moving in here is the best way to make that happen . [ scene_break ] kristen : well , come in . nicole : i want to talk about brady . kristen : well , i 'm sure you do . everybody 's got an opinion . nicole : i love brady , but when it comes to women , he 's sadly stupid . kristen : wait a second . you 're right . was n't he once involved with you ? nicole : oh , gosh . yeah , you may be able to fool him , but not me . kristen : really ? nicole : 'cause we both know you 're a phony bitch . kristen : ooh . well , i guess it takes one to know one , right ? [ scene_break ] brady : so you 've seen the error of your ways , and you want to beg me to come back and chair the board ? eric : no . brady : is it about going after that one lost sheep ? eric : before i can replace you , we need a formal letter of resignation . i need to get a replacement . we have no time to waste on our fund - raising . brady : i would n't worry about the fund - raising , eric . even though kristen and i are persona non grata lately , dimera and titan are still going to support the school and the church . eric : thank you . brady : it 's got to be thrilling for you , huh ? i mean , you 're going to have all this money rolling in without the unpleasantness of having to see me on an ongoing basis . eric : you know , you seem to be enjoying this . 'cause i 'm not . brady : i 'm not enjoying it , either . but like i told marlena earlier , i 'm not going to fall apart . i do n't care what anybody thinks . and i 'm going to live my life my way . eric : or the kristen dimera way . [ scene_break ] kristen : you just called me a phony bitch . i 'm going to have to rethink my entire existence . nicole : well , maybe you should think about brady . because of you , he lost john , and marlena , who is like a mother to him , his sister , his brother -- kristen : i know , i know . it 's -- it 's horrible . i never wanted it to happen . nicole : and you do n't plan things , either , do you ? you do n't roll over anyone who gets between you and what you want , and brady is your soul mate , and coincidentally , the perfect means to hurt john and marlena . kristen : oh . thankfully , he does n't think that 's what i 'm doing . nicole : oh , my god . because it 's too painful for him to face what a fool he 's been . i mean , my god , he 's even had to develop self - induced amnesia . kristen : i do n't know what that means . nicole : yeah , you know , okay . let me just back up a little bit here , okay . do you know how i know what you did to get marlena away from john ? that secret little room where you tried to kill her , you stole susan 's baby , and my favorite one , bringing roman back from the dead -- do you know ? that is how i know everything . because brady told me . kristen : okay , well , i know there was a time when he was n't my biggest fan . nicole : well , now he has to pretend to forget so he can do this with you . kristen : no , he has n't forgotten anything . he just knows that i 'm a different person now . nicole : just like i know there 's zero calories in vodka . kristen : and i 've never denied that i 've made mistakes . nicole : neither did stalin . kristen : okay , when it comes to mistakes , it seems that maybe you 're the past master there , though , right ? [ scene_break ] hope : do you think daniel sees that chloe 's out to get him ? okay , what is it that you 're not telling me ? jennifer : you know what , hope , daniel has so many incredible qualities . he 's a master surgeon . he does the best imitation of scooby - doo . he 's so incredibly sweet to his mom -- hope : he is . jennifer : yeah , but you know what ? he does n't see some women for who they are . look at nicole . she had him coming and going . hope : oh , yeah . there 's definitely a breed of women out there who really know how to work that sir galahad streak in men . jennifer : right , yes . and nicole is not even the mother of his son . so i think that i would be really stupid to underestimate chloe . [ scene_break ] daniel : hey , how about a little building time with your blocks , huh ? what do you say ? 'cause mommy and i , know what we 're going to do ? we are going to have a little -- a little chat . okay ? there you go . okay , you 're -- you 're kind of scaring me here , because what you said about moving in here , the way you said it , you said it like as if it were actually possible or realistic . chloe : i think it is . daniel : no , it 's not . we are divorced . we are no longer married . look , i am in love with jennifer . this is not some kind of scenario that calls for me to have a roommate , and certainly not you . chloe : i was n't thinking about myself . i 'm thinking about parker . if we all live under the same roof , he 'll know what it 's like to be part of a family . i 'm sorry if you think i have some ulterior motive , but that 's all i meant . [ scene_break ] eric : i am so glad you came to see me . marlena : me too . tell me , how was it with brady ? eric : not great . marlena : yeah . i was afraid of that . i guess i was just hoping -- eric : hoping what ? about accepting his resignation ? marlena : no . hoping that he has not isolated himself from so much of our family . he 's so -- he 's so defensive around me , and now -- eric : well , he 's defensive with me too . very , that `` i do n't need anyone anymore . `` marlena : yeah . it 's just all a mess , is n't it ? eric : mom , i just hope you understand , i ca n't keep him and kristen on the board . we 're a catholic church . marlena : i know , i - i do . i do understand . i - i think this just might be a gradual wake - up call for brady . you know , having lost madison , i do n't want him losing any more . eric : mom , how much have you lost in all this ? i mean , as vulnerable as brady was , a very unpriestly part of me just wanted to deck brady for what he has done to you . marlena : oh , sweetie . i ca n't blame brady . so much of this is already my own fault . [ scene_break ] kristen : it does seem a little hypocritical . i mean , that you would come in here and say , `` oh , do n't hurt poor brady , `` when , did n't you dump poor brady for ej ? and then did n't you also dump eric for lucas , so you could get your hands all over kate roberts ' money ? but nothing compares to you jumping into the marital bed with victor kiriakis . really ? really ? nicole : okay , i was awful . i was bad . but i have and always will be a loyal friend to brady . kristen : i believe you , nicole . i do . i think you 're here because you 're concerned about him . i also think you 're here because you 're bored , 'cause your life is so empty . so , clearly , you have a past . i have a past . but there 's one big difference . nicole : and what 's that ? kristen : my past is my past . see , i 've changed . was n't that you , wandering around horton square , knowing that your baby had died ? nicole : do n't go there . kristen : did n't you set the whole thing up so that jennifer had to take the blame for it ? nicole : i am warning you , kristen , do n't -- kristen : it seems to me that you are still that woman that thinks that little , innocent babies are just a means to an end . nicole : you bitch . kristen : ooh . now you just made another serious mistake . nicole : oh , did i ? kristen : mm - hmm . you should never , ever raise your hand to a dimera unless you 're willing to pay the consequences , nicole . nicole : oh , i 'm trembling . kristen : you know what ? i think i 've been pretty tolerant of you , and you know why ? i know you care about brady . but you are so completely insignificant to me that you 're not even worth the energy it takes to react . i 'm going to let go of your arm , and you 're going to walk out of here , if you know what 's good for you . nicole : i never know what 's good for me . you vicious bitch . kristen : [ gasps ] [ both struggling ] brady : nicole ! nicole , damn it ! nicole , get off her . what the hell are you doing ? kristen : she 's not on her meds . nicole : oh , not on my meds ? you can call me every name in the book , but do n't you ever , ever say i would never love my babies , ever . brady : all right , come on . neutral corners , out here . nicole , get your butt out here . nicole : god , she 's a bitch . brady : what are you doing ? nicole : you 're sleeping with a stone cold bitch . brady : hey , listen ! you do something like that again and our friendship is done . do you understand me ? nicole : yeah , what 's losing a friend compared to losing your mother , your father , your brother ? brady : nicole , i 'm not going to listen to this right now . nicole : no , come on . she is not worth it . and in your heart , brady , you know she 's not . brady : you are wrong . you are all wrong about her . kristen : brady , what am i doing to you ? [ scene_break ] eric : how is this your fault ? marlena : i tried to help brady see the truth about kristen . and i ended up losing john . eric : mom . what on earth are you talking about ? [ scene_break ] jennifer : so after being married to jack for so many years , who i loved with my whole heart , it is kind of nice to be with someone who 's not so complicated . hope : yeah . i can see that . jennifer : and that being said , really , the only time i 've ever seen daniel bitter is -- is when he talks about not being able to watch melanie grow up , and he feels guilty for this horrible man that was her father . hope : and here 's chloe on his doorstep . jennifer : yeah . and i 'm trying to be fair , i -- hope : oh , yes , fair . way , way too fair , cuz . jennifer : and i know that , from chloe 's point of view , it would be better for her son for them to be back together . hope : oh , yeah . it would kind of work out really nicely for her too , do n't you think ? jennifer : you do n't like her , do you ? hope : i -- i do n't think she 's evil . i just think she 's weak . and a whole lot of people have been hurt by that weakness . jennifer : but at the same time , i think she 's very strong for her son . she told me the whole story , the whole thing that happened with daniel , and you know what ? it was wrong , and it was very unfair . and if i were her ? hope : mm - hmm ? jennifer : i would want daniel back too . i understand -- hope : stop , stop , stop , stop , stop , stop , stop , stop . that 's it , no . i will not let you talk yourself into this . no , you 're not talking like that . [ scene_break ] daniel : we need to talk about something that we have n't really addressed since you came back . please . chloe : [ sighs ] daniel : the fact that parker is my son , i could not hope for better news . but we need to clear the air about the two of us . chloe : wait , did you hear something about me ? daniel : there 's more ? chloe : no , you know everything . daniel : now , see , i 'm not quite so sure about that . because i happen to know that you did n't get back with philip when you left salem , or anyone else . and now , you 're talking about moving in here as if that were the next logical step . chloe : for parker . daniel : but we 're not talking about parker . we are talking about us . now , i want you to be honest . honest . deep down , is there any part of you that wishes that we could get back together ? chloe : of course , there is . [ scene_break ] brady : i 'm sick of people piling on when it comes to kristen , all right ? i mean , i do n't even talk to most of my family right now , nicole , so it would n't be a big , big deal if i did n't speak to you either , okay ? and that 's what 's gon na happen if you pull a stunt like this again . nicole : oh , my god . oh , my god . so -- so eric , your brother , he 's just -- he 's nothing to you now . brady : no , no , listen . priest or no priest , he has no right to -- to judge me . nicole : so you 're doing the woman who tried to kill his mother ? okay , wait . all right , all right , all right . brady : what ? nicole : wait . you know me and my big mouth . i 'm sorry . but this is n't about me and kristen . this is about you . and i came here to tell her what this is doing to your family . you should see eric . it 's killing him , and i know it 's killing you . brady , please , trust me . she does n't care about you . she only cares about herself . brady : you 're wrong . you 're wrong . [ scene_break ] kristen : i tried to keep it together , it 's just -- she was certifiable . brady : no , she 's upset . kristen : well , she came in here and attacked me . brady : you know , kristen , she 's been through a lot . i think you should cut her some slack . kristen : are you defending her ? kristen : nicole came in here , and she physically attacked me , and you want me to cut her slack ? brady : you know , kristen , listen . this has n't been the best day for me . you know , i 've spent the last week running around , defending you 24/7 . most of my interpersonal relationships in this town are very , very strained as a result of my relationship with you . kristen : i 'm aware of that . brady : but that woman out there in the hallway , nicole , she did just lose a baby . as a matter of fact , it 's her second one in a short amount of time . i was there for the first one , and i 've never seen anyone in so much pain and agony in my life . so if she gave you a hard time just now , i think you should just , you know , get over it . just let it go . and another thing , knowing you , i saw your face when i came into this room , and i heard what nicole was saying , and i 'm pretty sure that you gave as good as you got . kristen : so i was just supposed to stand there and take it ? that 's not who i am , and it never will be . now , i 'm aware that nicole is clearly a basket case , but she does n't deserve your protection or your sympathy , brady . i think you just need to steer clear of her from now on . what is that look for ? brady : you 're jealous , are n't you ? kristen : why do you keep asking me if i 'm jealous of people ? i 'm not jealous of chloe , and i 'm not jealous of nicole . why would i be jealous of the most unstable person in salem ? brady : good question . why are you ? [ scene_break ] marlena : john thinks i went too far in trying to show brady the truth about kristen . eric : okay , and after he found out , he put brady in the hospital , and you went too far ? marlena : i know , i know . but he thinks that . eric : sorry . marlena : i did n't come here for a shoulder to cry on . eric : well , you are welcome to . marlena : i 'm going to let you get back to work . eric : let me walk you out . marlena : okay . nicole : oh , hi . i 'm sorry , i did n't mean to interrupt . marlena : not at all . i was just leaving . nicole : nice to see you . marlena : yeah . eric : i 'm going to walk her out . nicole : okay . hmm . so it sounds like kristen is the hot topic of the day . but it seems like you 're giving up the fight , marlena . perhaps it 's time to bring in the reserves . so you want the truth about kristen to come out , huh ? but you are too good and noble to realize , doc , that sometimes , it takes a lie ... to get at the truth . `` brady black , ceo of titan industries . `` `` kristen blake dimera , vp of dimera enterprises . `` aw . lovers and competitors .

[ scene_break ] chloe : look , i -- i know that probably freaked you out , but you 're right . we have to be totally honest with each other . daniel : yeah , i think we do . chloe : see , it took me a long time to realize that it was n't that i slept with philip . it 's that i lied about it over and over . i do n't think i 've ever been that unhappy in my life . and i know that you sensed something was wrong , as hard as i tried to act normal . daniel : i could tell that something was -- was different . chloe : of course , you did . and all the terrible things i did after i lost you , it 's -- well , it 's 'cause i lost myself . so of course i lost you . i remember living in this apartment , and waking up with you next to me every day , and it 's the first time in my life i really felt like i was at home . and you 're right . i - i have n't been with philip , or any other man , since i left salem . but that 's because i live to be a good mother to parker . and no other man , and no other life , could possibly touch what i had then . so of course i want that back . i think about it every day . i do n't think that you even remember it . daniel : yes . yes , i do . [ scene_break ] kristen : i 'm not jealous of nicole or anybody else , okay ? i can tell that she 's out of control , and it 's because she does n't like the idea of you being with anybody when she 's so alone . i 'm convinced of it . brady : so your solution is to tell me to turn my back on her ? i do n't think either one of us likes to take direct orders , kristen . kristen : you know what ? i admit it . i was upset , okay ? and my words did n't come out right . she 's in trouble . i do n't want her using you . brady : kristen , i can take care of myself . i always have . kristen : i know . brady , you know what ? honey , let 's not do this , okay ? i know you 're having a really rough day . john 's leaving town , right ? brady : yeah , i 'm going to miss all the great times we have together . kristen : well , i am worried about you . i know what being with me is doing to you . brady : well , like i just told nicole in the hallway , everyone is wrong about you . they 're all wrong . and you 're right . we should n't let other people get between us . kristen : i know . we ca n't . brady : well , as much as i 'd like to stay here and cement this little detente , i have a company to run . kristen : [ laughs ] i have a company to run too . we can detente later , right ? guess what . i think you need to have this . brady : i think so too . kristen : all right . you keep it , and if you get here before i 'm home , then just make yourself comfortable . brady : that sounds like a good plan . you know what ? i wonder who 's going to get on my case next . kristen : ouch . [ scene_break ] nicole : i noticed brady 's resignation on the desk , and getting his signature could n't have been fun . eric : well , we did n't have another fight . he 's just all , `` nothing matters but kristen . `` nicole : that really had to hurt a lot . eric : it 's tough . i mean , he 's so delusional about what -- it 's just tearing the whole family apart . nicole : can i ask you something ? do you need a similar letter signed by kristen ? eric : yeah , i have to have her resignation in writing before i can replace her . nicole : well , why do n't you let me handle that ? eric : if you do n't mind . i mean , 'cause i really just do n't want to see this child of god for a very , very long time . nicole : consider it done . eric : you know what ? i 'm really sorry . i just -- i need to get an aspirin . nicole : okay . i 'll track her down and get this back as soon as i can . eric : okay , thanks . nicole : sure . but before kristen and i go for round two , there 's someplace i have to stop first .

[ scene_break ] tracy : luke , i have much too much respect for you to dismiss your theory out of hand . but if you 're right , and ethan does n't want to know if you 're his father , then you have to respect him and let him go . if , on the other hand , i 'm right , and he 's part of the big scam , then you really have to let him go . luke , either way , it 's the same solution . i 'm going to leave you to work it out . hello , lucky . lucky : hello , tracy . luke : hey , cowboy . lucky : dulling the pain of your big loss . luke : what are you talking about ? lucky : instead of drowning yourself with booze , you should be celebrating . whatever ethan took you for was a small price to pay to get rid of him . luke : what do you mean `` get rid of him `` ? lucky : i just saw him on the pier , and he said he was going back to australia .

[ scene_break ] valerie : you son of a bitch . you purposely played that footage . you wanted lulu to know that dante and i slept together . dillon : why would i do that when i could have told lulu the truth at any time ? valerie : you wanted to keep your hands clean . you had to make it look like an accident instead of having the decency to keep your damn mouth shut ! or the courage -- dillon : well , lulu deserves to know that her husband is a faithless bastard , okay ? valerie : or the courage to tell her face - to - face , in private . instead , you blindsided lulu . you humiliated the woman that you claim you love . you imploded her marriage in the middle of a crowded room ?

[ sniffles ] [ crying ] you tore me to bits . but that did n't make me stop caring about you . [ scene_break ] nathan : maxie , come on . this is not about me keeping something from you , okay ? this is about me being a loyal friend to dante . maxie : no . this about keeping your girlfriend , the woman you 're supposed to love , trust , and respect , in the dark . you know , if you had opened up to me , i might not necessarily have run and told lulu . we could have figured something out together . nathan : like what ? maxie : like a way to convince dante to come clean to lulu before all of this happened , before so much time went by , before it was past the point of no return for lulu . we could have fixed this together , but instead , you chose dante over me . nathan : maxie , come on . i was in an impossible situation . if anybody can understand that , it 's you . maxie : [ scoffs ] [ scene_break ] valerie : i promised dante i 'd keep it a secret because i knew how much he wanted to save his marriage . but i started feeling sorry for myself . and i stupidly confided in you . worst mistake i ever made . dillon : the only one to blame for this is dante . valerie : wrong ! you 're to blame for taking advantage . you threatened to tell lulu every chance you got . you were dying for the truth to come out . but you knew it could fall back on you . you knew lulu could hate you for ripping her family apart . so you figured out some sneaky way to get what you wanted . now stop insulting my intelligence , and admit it ! own up to what you did ! dillon : fine ! i did it .

[ sighs ] from where i see it , jake and elizabeth seem happy . jake does n't seem to mind his situation , and elizabeth does n't . sam : i know , i just -- i put myself in that position , and i do n't think i could marry someone that i did n't know anything about their past . i would always be waiting for that knock on the door because everything would be changing . patrick : well , you do n't have to worry about that . sam : why ? patrick : because there ai n't gon na be a knock on your door .

[ scene_break ] dante : the last thing i ever wanted to do was to hurt you . lulu : yeah , you keep saying that . these last few months must have been torture -- spending all that time with your fingers crossed , hoping that valerie would n't tell me . why did n't she tell me ? she could have had you all to herself . dante : i guess she did n't want to hurt you , either . lulu : oh , wow . that is so great ! that is wonderful . you two were on the same wavelength -- one hot summer night , forbidden sex , and then both shared how much you care about me . that 's why you called her that morning . you had to get your story straight . you had to let her know that i knew about the kiss and nothing more . the two of you whispering behind my back , keeping this secret , tied together by it so that every time you looked at her , every time she handed you a file , you saw yourselves together in our bed . dante : it was -- lulu : in my bed . in that bed ... i honestly believed that we were closer and loved each other more than two people could possibly love each other . and all those nights , valerie was there with us , taking up all that space , diminishing you , diminishing us . how could you do this to us ? dante : 'cause i thought that my marriage was over . i thought that you were in a hotel room with dillon . lulu : do n't you dare blame me for this . dante : i 'm not blaming you . i 'm not blaming you . believe me , i hate myself for this . and i hate that i had a reaction to a lie that you told . i hate that i -- i saw a messed up bed and some clothes all over the place and ... dante : i love you so much , lulu , i do n't know what to do with myself . i -- i -- the thought of you betraying me was killing me . lulu : do n't you tell me that this was revenge sex . that is a coward 's excuse . another woman came along and she needed you , and she wanted you and obviously , dante , you wanted her , too . so you made up a reason to cheat on me . that is the long and the short of it , is n't it ? [ scene_break ] valerie : how could you do this ? setting up lulu to find out in front of all those people ? you 're disgusting . dillon : oh , come on . can you honestly tell me you did n't want lulu to find out ? that you did n't want their marriage to implode ? valerie : no . i did everything i could these past few months to make sure that did n't happen . dillon : but in your heart of hearts , you 're telling me you did n't want dante to come running to you for comfort ... valerie : no ! dante : ... when he broke up with lulu ? i did n't want any of that !

[ carly lies unconscious inside her wrecked car . ] | after the video has revealed to everyone that dante has cheated on lulu with valerie and covered it up , she is distraught , infuriated and tells her husband she will never trust him again . he protests he intended to come clean to her although , unfortunately the truth came out before he had a chance to do so . valerie knows that dillon engineered this whole event and it was no `` unintended mix - up `` of the video where she revealed to him that she slept with dante being played instead of the video of his screen - play . she knows he wanted to end dante and lulu 's marriage and did not care if he publicly humiliated and blind - sided lulu , the woman he says he loves . maxie is equally devastated to find out her best friend 's `` perfect `` marriage is not what she thought . she is not happy to find out that nathan knew dante 's secret yet did not trust her enough to tell her . she goes out to find lulu and the two of them leave together without their men . kiki is drinking and tells morgan she can not trust him . he tells her he 's tried and failed to reach out to her , apologize and be her friend and he can not do any more . she gets in her car before he can prevent her from leaving and she drives drunk in the dark . meanwhile , carly has gotten the startling revelation that it appears that jake is really jason . she gathers a dna sample and finds a doctor she knows to have him run a dna test to prove whether her theory is correct that jake is really jason morgan . it does not take long for the doctor to confirm that it 's been proven that they are a match and the very same person . at that point , she knows she has to find jake before he marries elizabeth . she knows how many lives this is going to profoundly affect when he is unaware he 's married to sam and she 's going to marry patrick . while sam and patrick are still completely unaware that jake is jason , they find that both of their respective kids might have `` premonitions `` beyond what adults know , and it 's not just due to halloween costumes or candy . right at the same point , jake has a déjà vu as he finds himself on the same bridge he knows he 's been on before with elizabeth . carly rushes in her car in the dark to find jake , completely distracted and lost in thought with what she 's just discovered . kiki is also on the road drinking , listening to loud music and distracted . their two cars accidentally collide . | <s>[INST] kiki : so where were you anyway ? darby : he was with me . you forgot this . kiki : holy crap . you two were having sex . that 's where you were . morgan : well , you know what ? you did n't want anything to do with me , so i figured why the hell not ? [ scene_break ] valerie : how did an intern 's behind - the - scenes footage get switched with your sizzle reel ? dillon : i do n't know . andy must have confused them . valerie : no . andy clearly said that you took the flash drive with his footage and put it in a drawer , which implies that it was nowhere near the drive for your sizzle reel . so someone chose to switch it with what we were supposed to see . and i just ca n't picture andy doing something like that on purpose . so that leaves you . [ scene_break ] maxie : that was the secret that you were keeping ? you knew that dante slept with valerie ? nathan : yeah , i did . [ scene_break ] dante : lulu , stop . please . we have to talk about this , okay ? lulu : [ sobbing ] how dare you ? how the hell dare you ? get away from me ! dante : no . lulu : get away from me !

[ scene_break ] carly : dr. sheinberg , thank you so much for meeting me this late . dr. sheinberg : anything for you , mrs. corinthos . i owe you . you said something on the phone about needing a dna test . carly : yes . and it 's strictly confidential . dr. sheinberg : of course . the same way you are with me when i need a room at your fine establishment . is that why you need it now ? after hours ? carly : yes , and time is of the essence . dr. sheinberg : well , i can get started analyzing the sample immediately . what are you trying to find out ? carly : whether the person who drank from this bottle is the same person in this photo . [ scene_break ] maxie : how long have you known that dante slept with valerie ? nathan : i do n't -- a while . since shortly after it happened , all right ? look , dante needed somebody to talk about it , and i swore that i would never repeat it , which is why i could n't tell you , because you would be compelled to tell lulu . maxie : um , yeah ! nathan : come on , max . i had to keep quiet , all right ? this was not my secret to tell . maxie : no . we are supposed to be partners . why did n't you trust me enough to talk to me about this ? [ scene_break ] lulu : [ sobbing ] what will it take for you to leave me alone ? dante : there 's nothing you could say or do to make that happen . lulu : i do n't want you here , dante . dante : i 'm not going anywhere , okay ? i love you . and i want us to work through this . lulu : are you delusional ? or are you just so incredibly arrogant that you think you can just wave this off ? you cheated on me and then you lied about it for months . why ? so you could just watch me make a fool of myself every living day ? dante : no . lulu : every time i told you that i loved you . every time , i insisted that you would never , that you could never lie to me , that you could never hurt me . you made me believe that you were the perfect man , that you were the perfect husband , that life was n't perfect but our marriage was . oh , my god . dante , we were gon na have another baby . i was supposed to start hormone treatment tomorrow ! dante : all right , i still want that . i - i want our family . lulu : no , you do n't . dante : yes , i do . lulu : no , you do n't . you tried to talk me out of it . or is that -- is that why you were suddenly reluctant ? you knew what you had done , and you knew if i ever found out , things would be over between us . well , guess what ? you were right . [ scene_break ] valerie : you son of a bitch . you purposely played that footage . you wanted lulu to know that dante and i slept together . dillon : why would i do that when i could have told lulu the truth at any time ? valerie : you wanted to keep your hands clean . you had to make it look like an accident instead of having the decency to keep your damn mouth shut ! or the courage -- dillon : well , lulu deserves to know that her husband is a faithless bastard , okay ? valerie : or the courage to tell her face - to - face , in private . instead , you blindsided lulu . you humiliated the woman that you claim you love . you imploded her marriage in the middle of a crowded room ?

[ chuckles ] morgan : let me be clear . there is no `` in between `` . we 're over -- for good . [ scene_break ] dr. sheinberg : i was able to get a viable sample from the bottle -- enough for comparison . carly : oh , that 's great . okay , so how long is it gon na take ? dr. sheinberg : i 've already started the analysis . you did come to the right place . i have the latest technology here . i can have your results faster than anywhere else in port charles . however , i still need a sample from the person in that computer image in order to make the comparison . carly : well , his dna should be in the criminal database . i mean , he was arrested several times when he was alive . at least we thought he was -- look , it 's really complicated . very complicated . but you do have access to that database ? dr. sheinberg : yes , i often work with the pcpd . can you tell me who you think this person is ? it 'll stay between us . carly : jason morgan .

[ sniffles ] [ crying ] you tore me to bits . but that did n't make me stop caring about you . [ scene_break ] nathan : maxie , come on . this is not about me keeping something from you , okay ? this is about me being a loyal friend to dante . maxie : no . this about keeping your girlfriend , the woman you 're supposed to love , trust , and respect , in the dark . you know , if you had opened up to me , i might not necessarily have run and told lulu . we could have figured something out together . nathan : like what ? maxie : like a way to convince dante to come clean to lulu before all of this happened , before so much time went by , before it was past the point of no return for lulu . we could have fixed this together , but instead , you chose dante over me . nathan : maxie , come on . i was in an impossible situation . if anybody can understand that , it 's you . maxie : [ scoffs ] [ scene_break ] valerie : i promised dante i 'd keep it a secret because i knew how much he wanted to save his marriage . but i started feeling sorry for myself . and i stupidly confided in you . worst mistake i ever made . dillon : the only one to blame for this is dante . valerie : wrong ! you 're to blame for taking advantage . you threatened to tell lulu every chance you got . you were dying for the truth to come out . but you knew it could fall back on you . you knew lulu could hate you for ripping her family apart . so you figured out some sneaky way to get what you wanted . now stop insulting my intelligence , and admit it ! own up to what you did ! dillon : fine ! i did it .

[ scene_break ] erica : i so rarely even discuss that time of my life . i mean , i was very young , and the pregnancy was a big mistake , and it was a very private decision and a very difficult one . greg : and i 'm sure it was also very difficult for some people to understand . erica : yes , exactly . later i made another choice , and that choice was bianca . and so maybe -- maybe after a while , greenlee will feel free to make all sorts of choices . greg : greenlee is still capable of making those decisions . erica : but for now , greg , please , please respect her father 's wishes . please do n't broach the topic of ryan 's baby with her . greg : all right . you have my word . greenlee wo n't hear about it from me .

[ scene_break ] josh : look , babe , have you considered there might be other ways to help jamie ? babe : sex with some guy to make jamie suffer and dump me ? it was n't exactly my first choice . who do you think i am ? josh : i think you 're desperate . babe : and you 're right . josh : jamie will hate you . babe : it 'll be horrible , but he 'll recover , as does everyone when they get their heart broken . he 'll move on . josh : you sure you want him to do that ? babe : without me ? god , no , but i have to . josh : there 's that `` have to `` stuff again . babe : do you realize i am a burden with enough baggage that i could open my own line ? i have a son who i love so dearly that 's trapped with this ex that wo n't stop bringing it down on jamie . it 's enough for one person to bear . i just need to suck it up and do the deed and make jamie crazy for his own good . josh : you 're a trip . babe : so is that a yes ? will you do it ? josh : hell , no . this reeks of trouble , and i am so out of it . babe : maybe you 're right . maybe i am crazy . do you think we could just forget i even said any of this ? it 's a little embarrassing , kind of stupid . and i -- i better get back to work . there 's a lot of empty glasses .

[ line trilling ] gabi : i 'm sorry , okay ? i 'm really -- i 'm really sorry . you did the right thing to take care of jj . i was an idiot to be focused on kristen 's shares . it 's just chad , you know , he 's all smug and smirky , and i hate to lose , especially to him . i ca n't lose , eli , okay . eli : babe , i know how much this deal means to you , but there is more to life than business , money , and power . gabi : i know . i know ; i do , and ... why i need you , okay , to keep me grounded , to remind me of what 's important . you saved kristen and jj too . that is a lot of stress . what can i do ? what can i do to help you relax ? maybe something like this . or this . [ phone buzzing ] kristen : it 's me , gabi . i understand that you 're interested in my dimera stock . let 's talk . and so it begins , our first step into getting back eli and brady . brady : kristen must 've returned to the convent where the nuns nursed her back to health when she fell from that window in italy . it would make sense that she went there for refuge while she was grieving the loss of our baby . julie : well , according to what eli said , she 's there for more than refuge . she has become a nun . brady : a nun ? julie : i 'm sorry . i do n't have any details . i 'm sorry . i really have to get back to jj . brady : i understand . thank you for giving me the information . julie : you wo n't say anything to -- brady : i wo n't say anything to anybody about jj . you have my word . julie : thank you . thank you . brady : you 're welcome . jj : i screwed up . i let you down . i wanted kristen to pay for what she did to you . i failed . haley : i did n't want you to get revenge , jj . i told you . i want you to find peace . jj : how do i do that ? i do n't know how to do that . haley : you let go . just let go of the anger , the pain , the drugs . jj : what 's the point ? haley : living , jj . living . help people the way you helped me . save lives the way you saved mine . jj , you 're my hero , and you 're gon na make -- you 're gon na make a huge difference in the lives of so many people , just like you did with me . but first you got to get off the drugs and get on with your life . will you do that for me ? jj : [ crying ] for you . i 'll do it for you . hope : john , i finished the salad for dinner . um , i know marlena 's not a fan of radishes , so i put them on the side for her . oh . where is she ? | kristen and lani wanted to make a plan to get their revenge when the returned to salem . marlena talked to brady about losing a child . she knew brady was having trouble dealing with his baby dying . julie talked to eli about jj trying to kill kristen . he explained what happened when they went out to get kristen . chad went to gabi and told her that eli was n't going to get the shares . gabi thought she was going to get the shares . they went back and forth about who deserved the shares . she was determined to get chad out of her life and the company . eli showed up while gabi and chad were arguing . chad left the room . she told him how chad had trouble getting the shares . eli told her that he ran into a problem as well . gina told john that rolf pushed jennifer off the balcony and not eve . john did n't think that rolf would get away with murder . gina said he almost did because she resisted to believe abby . she thought it was her fault that rolf got away . john assured her that it was n't her fault . gabi wanted to know what went wrong with the plan . eli told her that he ran into lani . he told her that she was at the convent . gabi wanted to know if he had feelings for her , but he did n't . jj woke up and saw julie in the room . he did n't want the rest of the family to see him like that . jj told julie that kristen and lani were trying to be nuns . lani told kristen that they could offer what they wanted . chad told kate that he had was going to get kristen 's shares . he wanted to know if kate was the one who was leaked the information . she denied doing it . gina pretended to be upset that abby was able to figure out what happened to jennifer . john hugged her to make her feel better . marlena showed up just as they were hugging . | <s>[INST] hope : hey . john : hey . hope : you would not believe the day i 've had . john : well , then you just better put your feet up and tell me all about it . hope : i could use a glass of wine first . i picked us up a nice bottle of pinot grigio . john : all right . hope : three glasses ? john : i do n't think so . doc 's gon na be working late at the office , so it looksike it 's just the two of us . hope : oh , that 's a shame .

[ chuckling blissfully ] brady : i 'm sure you think i 'm crazy to get involved with kristen again . i do n't blame you . you think i would 've learned my lesson the first time , right . maybe the second time . marlena : crazy is n't a word that i use , and you both had the promise of a child . brady : and now the loss of one has torn us apart . i am tired of feeling sorry for myself , so i 'm not gon na do that anymore . i 'm gon na get out of your hair , okay . marlena : you know , i have got all night if you want to talk . brady : i 'm good . marlena : ooh , i love you so much . brady : i love you too . marlena : i 'm gon na be meeting john for dinner . would you like to join us ?

and it 's all my fault . john : no , no , no , it 's not your fault . hope : john , yes , it is , it is . i was so worried about jennifer reliving that moment on the balcony that i resisted . john , i resisted reopening the case . rolf was -- what am i talking about -- is free to make another attempt on jennifer 's life , all because i refused to believe abigail and what she was saying . i failed . john : hey , stop it . look at me . hope , look at me . you 're anything but a failure . you are a thorough investigator , you 're hard , but you 're fair , and you are one of the most amazing women i have ever met . hope : do you really mean that ?

eli : i do n't know . i gave up trying to figure out lani a long time ago . hell , maybe she decided that she 'd do something right 'cause she ruined my life . gabi : okay , okay , so you -- so you saw lani . you did love her , so did any of those feelings -- eli : no , nothing , all right . it was just a shock . that 's it . gabi : i can understand how you could n't make the deal with kristen . eli : actually , it was n't because of lani . it was because of jj . jj : where am i ? julie : university hospital . eli brought you back . darling , please let me call your parents . jj : no , no , no . i do n't want to upset my mom . i do n't want her to see me like this . julie : eli told me what happened . were you really trying to kill kristen ?

well , after everything those two have done , i 'm sure they want redemption , but i hardly think they 're qualified to be brides of christ . kristen : we are not without a certain amount of power . i mean , that stock , dimera stock , that gabi sent eli to get from me is still very much mine , and i can still do with it as i please . lani : gabi is so power hungry . you know , ruling dimera might be the one thing that she wants more than punishing me for killing stefan . you know what we can do ? we can give gabi your shares in exchange for her taking out julie 's pacemaker . we could even sign some document that says we wo n't say anything about what she did to julie . you are a genius . kristen : oh , i know . but that stock is gon na stay right where it is , with me . kate : hey . what can i get you ?

( ( brad ) ) that and more tomorrow morning on n - b - c six news today . john : hey , sweetheart . i was n't expecting you till a little later . marlena : i see that . what 's going on ? hope : it was discovered that it was rolf who pushed jennifer off the balcony and framed eve . john : and being the great cop that hope is , she 's feeling a little guilty about letting people down and not getting on top of the truth sooner . marlena : well , now that you know that eve is cleared , you can focus on trying to find and arrest rolf . hope : well , rafe is on the case , and he 's the best . marlena : he is the best . hope : yeah . marlena : so is my husband . i 'd like some time alone with him . would you mind ? hope : oh , no , not at all . of course . i 'll get the salad ready for dinner . john : okay , sweetheart , i know what you 're gon na say . marlena : okay . why do n't you let me say it . kate : okay , why are you looking at me like that ? chad : did you tell my father that i lied to him ? kate : why would i do that ? chad : i 'm not sure , but you were the only one i told besides abby . kate : you know , this is exactly the reason i got out of the corporate world . this is it . it 's this paranoia , this backstabbing . do n't you dare start up those conspiracy theories about me and your father . do n't do that , okay , because i have n't been in touch with him , and i do n't want to be in touch with him . chad : then how 'd he find out ? lani : kristen , you just said that your shares give us leverage over gabi . kristen : mm - hmm . lani : i thought you wanted to help me . kristen : oh , but i do , absolutely . it 's just that that stock is my golden key to finally making dimera mine , and it is long overdue . when i came back to salem , and i saw gabi and stefan running my family 's company , it was like a kick to the gut . lani : yeah , well , i 'm sure chad feels the same way . kristen : yeah , well , he has more right to the company than gabi ever will , but he had his shot , and for so long , my father favored his sons , but now it 's my turn . lani : that 's great , kristen . it really is ; you deserve it . kristen : lani , it 's great for us . just because i do n't want to give up my shares to help you solve your problem , it does n't mean i wo n't help you . lani : meaning ? kristen : meaning we can still dangle that stock underneath that little bitch 's nose , and she 's gon na get a good whiff of that power , and when she lets her guard down , we 'll be right there for the kill . jj : i know that lani is n't your favorite person , but if she had n't have talked me down , i would 've shot kristen dead . julie : no . no , jj . that 's not you . that 's the drugs . and you must swear to me you will never , never try something like that again . jj : [ softly ] yeah . yeah , i -- i won't . hey , i get it . i should 've ... i should 've gotten it a lot sooner , but killing kristen wo n't bring haley back . [ groans ] julie : honey , what is it ? what 's happening ? jj : withdrawal . julie : you 're not alone , you know . jj , do you hear me ? you are gon na get all the help , all the support you need , starting right now . why do n't i go and get someone for you to talk to . jj . jj , you are safe here . you 're safe , darling . everything 's going to be okay . [ jj groans ] gabi : jj 's on drugs ? he tried to shoot kristen ? eli : thankfully , it ended without bloodshed . gabi : wow . no wonder kristen was n't in the mood to make a business deal . i understand why she turned you down . eli : actually , i never made the offer . gabi : why the hell not ? get ready for the insurance - themed experience gabi : those shares were ours for the taking , okay ? we had first access , and you did n't even make an attempt to get them . eli : i sort of had my hands full . gabi : oh , have you heard of multitasking ? eli : did you hear anything i just said ? jj almost shot kristen . okay , she was on her knees with a gun pointed at her head . he was a drugged - out mess . hell , i had to get him out of there before he was arrested for attempted murder . gabi : well , could n't you have done that and make the deal with kristen ? eli : are you for real ? gabi : do you have any idea how important those shares are to me ? eli : more important than jj 's life ? julie : marlena , i -- oh . brady : hi . julie : hi , brady . i was hoping to catch your mother . brady : oh , she left for the day . i was just using her office to handle some business calls . julie : okay . i wo n't disturb you . brady : julie , you look upset . is everything okay ? julie : no , it 's nothing . brady : that look on your lovely face tells me something different . is it doug ? julie : no . it 's jj . i really ca n't even talk about it . brady : hold on . did he od ? julie : you know about his problem ? brady : i know all about his problem , yeah . is he okay ? julie : well , he did n't overdose , but he is in terrible shape , and he does n't want anybody in the family to know . he swore eli to secrecy . brady : eli brought him in ? julie : all the way from italy . brady : italy ? why was jj in italy ? julie : he was with kristen . [ all speaking italian ] giorgio : ciao . kristen : ciao . [ sighs ] mm . well , as much as giorgio knew his way around my trigger points , i , um ... thought i 'd feel a lot better . lani : what 's going on ? kristen : if i have not love , i am nothing . and as much as i want it all , i mean , control of dimera is meaningless without brady by my side . lani : kristen , then go to him . talk to brady . kristen : it 's just i 'm not entirely sure how things stand with brady . you know , i have done terrible things to the people he loves , and he only gave me a second chance because of our child , and without a child , i mean , i do n't think he could really love me . marlena : this is not the first time i have walked in on you like this . john : i know , doc . she was feeling a little bad . marlena : mm - hmm . and you 're a friend of hers and want to be there to hold her hand and make sure she has a soft place to fall , and she 's now depending upon that . john : i -- it 's not like i can just ignore her . marlena : look , you 're not doing her any favors . hope needs to make it a life for herself again . she needs to move out and find a man , not find a man . what i know is , i want my man back . john : oh , come on , doc . you have me . marlena : no . it 's like there are three of us in this marriage , and we ca n't go on like this . john : okay . so you 're saying ? marlena : she needs to move out . we did n't have to stop the movie . john : you know , sweetheart , it 's christmas . do you think maybe this can wait until after the holidays ? marlena : i 'm not talking about throwing her out onto the street . look , doug and julie would be beyond thrilled to have her there . i mean , what could be better for a horton family member to be at the horton family home at christmas ? john : that 's a good point . i think you 're right . marlena : thank you . i 'll go out and get something to eat , and i will leave you to talk to hope . [ keys jingle ] [ door clicks open , closes ] brady : kristen 's in italy ? where ? did eli see her ? julie : now i 've put my foot in it . brady : julie , julie , julie , please , please . please talk to me . i need to know what 's going on . julie : okay . eli was in italy because gabi sent him there to track down kristen . it was something about buying dimera shares . anyway , he walks in , and there 's jj holding a gun on kristen , ready to get revenge for the death of haley . brady : is kristen okay ? julie : yes . eli got jj out of there . she was fine when they left the convent . brady : convent ? lani : you are an amazing woman . so you screwed up the past , but you are strong and courageous and compassionate , and together we are stronger than we have ever been , and we can do whatever we put our hearts and minds to . kristen : we can , ca n't we ? i just want you to know , lani , it has been a very long time since i 've had a true friend . lani : vengeance is mine , saith the lord . if it is good enough for him , it is good enough for us . kristen : i know exactly what we 're gon na do . gabi : of course i care about jj , but i do n't know , could n't you have asked lani to keep an eye on him while you talked to kristen about the deal ? eli : i was n't about to ask lani to do me any type of favors . besides , lani and kristen were on their way to take their final vows . gabi : hold on , kristen is becoming a nun too ? okay , you did n't think to mention that sooner ? that 's kind of a big detail to leave out . eli : well , damn , boss . my bad , all right . you know what , if you do n't like the way i handle things , get you a new errand boy . gabi : eli . eli : no , you know what , i 'm done . i 'm sleeping in the guest room . gabi : no . eli , wait , please . i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry ; please do n't go . kate : stefano always finds out . it 's his superpower , and apparently he still has it . besides , it would n't be too hard to find out that you did n't meet with kristen . chad : so nothing to do with you ? kate : nothing to do with me . chad : i have a chance to redeem myself , and that 's exactly what i 'm gon na do , so i am going to call the convent and track down kristen . [ cell phone ringing ] abby , what 's up ? okay , slow -- oh , my god , are you serious ? when i rent a car , i never compromise . chad : i 'm on it . kate : what 's wrong ? chad : turns out rolf was the one that pushed jennifer off the balcony . kate : rolf ? are you sure about that ? chad : yeah , the video was doctored to make it look like it was eve , but it was crazy old wilhelm . i hope that does n't mean my father was involved . kate : really ? i mean , do you seriously think your father would be involved in jennifer 's fall ? chad : i -- i hope he 's not . i have to find out , one way or another . kate : i better give stefano a heads - up . [ line trilling ] gabi : i 'm sorry , okay ? i 'm really -- i 'm really sorry . you did the right thing to take care of jj . i was an idiot to be focused on kristen 's shares . it 's just chad , you know , he 's all smug and smirky , and i hate to lose , especially to him . i ca n't lose , eli , okay . eli : babe , i know how much this deal means to you , but there is more to life than business , money , and power . gabi : i know . i know ; i do , and ... why i need you , okay , to keep me grounded , to remind me of what 's important . you saved kristen and jj too . that is a lot of stress . what can i do ? what can i do to help you relax ? maybe something like this . or this . [ phone buzzing ] kristen : it 's me , gabi . i understand that you 're interested in my dimera stock . let 's talk . and so it begins , our first step into getting back eli and brady . brady : kristen must 've returned to the convent where the nuns nursed her back to health when she fell from that window in italy . it would make sense that she went there for refuge while she was grieving the loss of our baby . julie : well , according to what eli said , she 's there for more than refuge . she has become a nun . brady : a nun ? julie : i 'm sorry . i do n't have any details . i 'm sorry . i really have to get back to jj . brady : i understand . thank you for giving me the information . julie : you wo n't say anything to -- brady : i wo n't say anything to anybody about jj . you have my word . julie : thank you . thank you . brady : you 're welcome . jj : i screwed up . i let you down . i wanted kristen to pay for what she did to you . i failed . haley : i did n't want you to get revenge , jj . i told you . i want you to find peace . jj : how do i do that ? i do n't know how to do that . haley : you let go . just let go of the anger , the pain , the drugs . jj : what 's the point ? haley : living , jj . living . help people the way you helped me . save lives the way you saved mine . jj , you 're my hero , and you 're gon na make -- you 're gon na make a huge difference in the lives of so many people , just like you did with me . but first you got to get off the drugs and get on with your life . will you do that for me ? jj : [ crying ] for you . i 'll do it for you . hope : john , i finished the salad for dinner . um , i know marlena 's not a fan of radishes , so i put them on the side for her . oh . where is she ?Summarize.[/INST]kristen and lani wanted to make a plan to get their revenge when the returned to salem . marlena talked to brady about losing a child . she knew brady was having trouble dealing with his baby dying . julie talked to eli about jj trying to kill kristen . he explained what happened when they went out to get kristen . chad went to gabi and told her that eli was n't going to get the shares . gabi thought she was going to get the shares . they went back and forth about who deserved the shares . she was determined to get chad out of her life and the company . eli showed up while gabi and chad were arguing . chad left the room . she told him how chad had trouble getting the shares . eli told her that he ran into a problem as well . gina told john that rolf pushed jennifer off the balcony and not eve . john did n't think that rolf would get away with murder . gina said he almost did because she resisted to believe abby . she thought it was her fault that rolf got away . john assured her that it was n't her fault . gabi wanted to know what went wrong with the plan . eli told her that he ran into lani . he told her that she was at the convent . gabi wanted to know if he had feelings for her , but he did n't . jj woke up and saw julie in the room . he did n't want the rest of the family to see him like that . jj told julie that kristen and lani were trying to be nuns . lani told kristen that they could offer what they wanted . chad told kate that he had was going to get kristen 's shares . he wanted to know if kate was the one who was leaked the information . she denied doing it . gina pretended to be upset that abby was able to figure out what happened to jennifer . john hugged her to make her feel better . marlena showed up just as they were hugging .</s> | 9,286 |

[ laughs ] [ cell phone rings ] nicole : oh . hey , miles . wait a minute . i have bad reception . hang on . okay , go ahead . no . no , no , no . i 'll send it to you later . daniel : here they are . nicole : ah , you got the toys . daniel : yeah . nicole : whoo . daniel : oh , look at this thing . nicole : hmm ? daniel : looks like a bloody zombie from hell . nicole : oh , creepy . daniel : yeah . nicole : that 's for little parker ? daniel : yeah , you know what ? i suppose i should go through these . what do you think ? nicole : it is probably a good -- daniel : eh , yeah . nicole : what the hell is that ? caroline : robert could spin a yarn . he was irish , of course , you know -- a touch of blarney . and james could have finished every sentence , 'cause he 'd heard it all before . but he would laugh . and that laugh would just fill the pub . then one day ... robert came in alone , and then he sat at the bar . and shawn set up their special drink , and i was just about to ask , `` where 's james ? `` and then james came in with some people and ... and sat at a table ... and not a word to robert ... like he did n't even know him . and these people -- they were calling him jimmy . we never called him jimmy . he was james , you know ? and robert ... was sitting at the bar and never turned around . and he poured james ' beer ... and then he poured his own . and then he just ... the beer just sat . and robert sat ... looking at it . then it hit me . that was james ' family . then i knew for the first time for sure that they were gay . me -- i never cared . but it never occurred to me ... what it cost them . i do n't know which one of them broke my heart most . but in the end , i knew who the real loser was . it was that family ... 'cause jimmy -- he did n't laugh . he barely spoke . their son , brother , was a stranger to them . so , when will and sonny came to me , i knew that they were nervous . [ chuckles ] but i said to myself , `` hallelujah ! this is a world where we can really know who our precious boys are , and they can really love each other and be who they are . `` congratulations , will ... and sonny . i wish you a lifetime of laughter ... and finishing each other 's sentences . [ laughter ] caroline : if you live long enough , that might come in handy . [ laughter ] [ applause ] justin : one day when sonny was about three years old , i found him on a second- story window ledge . there was a dragon kite stuck in a tree outside his window , and he wanted it , so he was climbing outside and just going for it . [ laughter ] justin : most kids , you struggle to get them to eat their vegetables or do their homework . our struggle was to teach sonny to sometimes just show a little caution . [ laughter ] justin : be careful . he had no fear ... and we had no idea when he was three what a gift that would be for him in his life . sonny came out to his mother and me when he was 15 years old . and like most parents , i was n't surprised when i thought about it . but i was in awe ... of his strength , his certainty . and he told us that he had struggled for a while , but that he knew who he was . it was that fearlessness , that fearlessness that saw him through . i was in awe of that then , and i still am . sonny can handle anything on his own ... but his mother and i are so glad that now he does n't have to , because he 's found a partner in will , someone who will give him a reason to want to come home at night , someone who loves him and supports him and will make sure that no matter what life sends their way ... he will be by his side . nicole : this is a disaster . i mean , how does she even keep track of her money ? daniel : i do n't know . why do n't you ask her ? i 'm sure she 'd love that . nicole : [ chuckles ] look at this . these are tallies . it 's like -- daniel : what ? nicole : it 's like hieroglyphics ... daniel : yeah . nicole : on an ibis . daniel : [ laughs ] nicole : you know what i 'm talking about ? daniel : [ laughs ] i do . nicole : and that looks like snoopy . daniel : snoopy right there . yeah , well , you know , you 're preaching to the choir , 'cause i have secretly considered trying to take this from her and straighten it out , but i do love the fact that she still talks to me , so ... nicole : oh , my god , she 's -- daniel : yeah , do n't go any further . we 're done , done . nicole : done . daniel : done . so let 's drop these off at my place , and we will finally get a bite to eat . nicole : sounds good . daniel : your drum ? nicole : give me the drum . daniel : carry on . let 's go . [ hitting drum ] oh , my gosh , that girl . i 'll tell you what -- you get out out line ... nicole : yeah . daniel : boom . nicole : oh ! daniel : did i hit you ? i did n't hit you . i did not hit you . nicole : you know what ? let me get the door . [ laughter ] daniel : get out of here . nicole : [ laughs ] daniel : oh , my god , i 'm so sorry . lucas : well , you just heard from justin how it was a ... relatively smooth process when sonny came out to his family . and the truth is , it was the exact same way for will when he came out to his family . [ laughter ] lucas : right ? drama - free ! [ laughter ] lucas : no arguments at all . i mean , sami and i are both rational people . we never fight . we never argue . and we always see eye to eye , when it comes to our children especially . [ laughter ] lucas : that laughter -- i 'm very grateful for that . it 's our saving grace in our family . um ... will -- he , uh -- he had it tough growing up . and although i ca n't , uh , fully speak for sami -- i know better -- but today maybe we both can agree that ... our son , will , was , uh ... the best thing we could have ever asked for . he was a better son than we both deserved . and when he came out to us ... sami had a moment . sonny came along , and , uh , their relationship blossomed , and then it was my turn to have a moment . [ light laughter ] lucas : i guess i just thought that deep down my son was going through , uh , some sort of state of confusion and that he would figure things out . but it turns out that i was the one who was confused . i am really sorry for the way i reacted , and i 'm so sorry for the way i treated you , sonny . it 's not the kind of life that i envisioned for my son when he was growing up ... but it is better than anything i could have ever asked for . growing up with two crazy parents like us , despite everything we put you through , you still managed to find the love and happiness that you deserve . and i am just so proud to call you my son . [ applause ] sonny : you know , uh , most people never have to think about why it is that you could even get married ... but we did . and we looked back , and we did some research , and we learned a lot . and abigail and jj were nice enough to help us find photos of people and moments that got us here today . and we would love for all of you to take a look at these photos , after the ceremony , at the reception ... because we owe them ... just like we owe all of you . will : we 're so grateful that you all could and would be here . we could n't imagine this day without each and every one of you . thank you . marlena : let 's make this official . [ laughter ] nicole : oh . daniel : what ? nicole : sonny and will walking down the aisle . [ laughs ] daniel : oh , they look so happy . nicole : yeah . daniel : look at that . nicole : ooh . that 's the kind of grin i 'm gon na have . oh , i ca n't wait to start planning my wedding . daniel : so you have to choose between nicole and the church ? eric : i guess that 's what it comes down to . nicole : the victor wedding i did n't have much to do with , but this is the first wedding that i actually feel like is mine ... and eric 's too , of course . and ... wow . you are awfully quiet . what 's going on ? daniel : uh ... marlena : sonny . sonny : i love a good adventure . that 's been my life . and what my dad said is kind of true . i 've been out on the edge my entire life . i 've been to every continent on this earth , and if someone would have asked me a couple years ago , i would have said that would be my life ... until i met you . you 're my anchor . you 're my anchor that does n't weigh me down ... but gives me something to hold on to ... a reason to make a home . our life together is the greatest adventure of my life . i love you so much . and i ca n't wait to spend the rest of my life with you and arianna . will : i ca n't say that i grew up with the same hunger for adventure that you did . i wanted to escape sometimes , and i did some pretty messed - up things to make that happen . but beside that , i never really thought about my future very much . it felt like my own skin was a coat that was too heavy . and even when i came out , it was n't as though the coat suddenly fit . it was more like i finally understood why it never would . i did n't believe i 'd ever find any kind of love , let alone the love that i 've found with you . e.m. forster once described love as `` two imperfect souls coming together to create something close to perfection . `` that 's how i 've felt since the day that i met you , even if i 'm the one who brings more of the imperfection into the equation . sonny : that 's not true . will : i respect you . i admire you . i adore you . but most of all ... sonny ... i love you . marlena : may we have the rings , please ? will : [ chuckles ] sonny : i , jackson , take you , will ... will : to be my lawfully wedded husband . sonny : i promise to love and honor you through good times and bad ... will : in sickness and health ... sonny : for richer or poorer ... will : for as long as we both shall live . sonny : as i give you this ring ... will : so i give you my heart . marlena : may the love you share ... be the bond that brings you strength and comfort ... and joy ... all the days of your lives . it is my very great honor to pronounce you ... jackson steven kiriakis ... and william robert horton ... husbands for life . [ cheers and applause ] [ arianna cooing ] [ indistinct chatter ] lucas : i 'll take this little girl . will : yeah , come on . sami : okay . i am so , so proud of you . will : why ? i got lucky . sami : what ? you are a terrific person . that 's why you got such a great partner , that beautiful baby . despite everything -- will : okay , hold on . hold on . let me just -- sami : no , no . will : can i -- sami : oh , my god . do not try to make this okay for your father and me . this is your day . you do n't have to do that . it is your day for me to tell you how lucky we are to have such an incredible son who , despite everything -- will : okay , let me just say one thing , just 'cause it is my day and everything . sami : fire away . will : if there was one thing that you and dad taught me , it 's how much family matters , and that it 's worth fighting for . sami : well , i know you have the scars to prove it . will : [ chuckles ] sami : i know you have spent way too much time in your life already worrying about me and taking care of me , which is why i am so glad that now you have someone in your life ... who 'll be taking care of you . will : mom . sami : [ sniffles ] victor : caroline , i want a copy of that speech of yours . caroline : oh , well ... maggie : it was beautiful . caroline : oh . well , i was so nervous , i ca n't even remember what i was saying . victor : oh , you . i 've seen you wrangle that st. patty 's day crowd down at the pub . i ca n't imagine this bunch would faze you . caroline : oh , well , thank you so much for letting us use your beautiful home . victor : oh , i 'm more than happy to open the house to family , regardless of what that meant . well , it 's a day of tolerance and acceptance , i was told . ciara : i love that bag . theresa : what ? ciara : your purse is to die for . where did you get it ? theresa : a really nice boy gave it to me . ciara : he must be really into you . theresa : i think he is . ciara : remember you promised to teach me how to get boys to do whatever i want ? theresa : sure , but let 's , uh ... let 's get you into middle school first , okay ? [ chuckles ] eric : you did beautifully . marlena : thank you . that is high praise coming from you . where 's nicole ? eric : she had to work . but she 'd be happy to know that she would have been welcome . marlena : of course . daniel : nothing 's wrong . nothing -- except i 'm hungry . all right , let 's go , come on . nicole : all right , yep , that was pretty smooth . i give it an 85 ... but i know you , jonas . come on , something 's up . what are n't you telling me ? daniel : i 'm telling you , let 's move it , legs . come on .

[ laughter ] lucas : that laughter -- i 'm very grateful for that . it 's our saving grace in our family . um ... will -- he , uh -- he had it tough growing up . and although i ca n't , uh , fully speak for sami -- i know better -- but today maybe we both can agree that ... our son , will , was , uh ... the best thing we could have ever asked for . he was a better son than we both deserved . and when he came out to us ... sami had a moment . sonny came along , and , uh , their relationship blossomed , and then it was my turn to have a moment . [ light laughter ] lucas : i guess i just thought that deep down my son was going through , uh , some sort of state of confusion and that he would figure things out . but it turns out that i was the one who was confused . i am really sorry for the way i reacted , and i 'm so sorry for the way i treated you , sonny . it 's not the kind of life that i envisioned for my son when he was growing up ... but it is better than anything i could have ever asked for . growing up with two crazy parents like us , despite everything we put you through , you still managed to find the love and happiness that you deserve . and i am just so proud to call you my son . [ applause ] sonny : you know , uh , most people never have to think about why it is that you could even get married ... but we did . and we looked back , and we did some research , and we learned a lot . and abigail and jj were nice enough to help us find photos of people and moments that got us here today . and we would love for all of you to take a look at these photos , after the ceremony , at the reception ... because we owe them ... just like we owe all of you . will : we 're so grateful that you all could and would be here . we could n't imagine this day without each and every one of you . thank you . marlena : let 's make this official .

[ beeps ] stitch : hey , it 's me . uh ... wanted to catch you , but you 're probably tied up with your big presentation . it 's just , today 's been -- turned out to be , uh ... you know what ? forget it . uh , i 'll just catch you when you get home . hope you 're out there , conquering the world . victor : i want to believe you . because everything i hold dear is at stake . ashley : you do n't think it 's me . because you would never tell me that you thought i was responsible if you did . i see what you 're doing . you 're hoping that maybe you 're gon na trip me up , and i 'm gon na admit to something , but it 's not gon na happen because i do n't know anything . victor : someone who 's close to me , someone who is in my circle is responsible for this paragon project . if i find out who it is , they will regret the day they were born . ashley : you ca n't tell me that you accept that i 'm telling the truth ? i mean , is this really what we 've come to ? nikki : what 's going on here ? ashley : victor 's just proving why this merger will never work . because clearly , we do n't trust each other , our families do n't trust each other , and without trust , you have nothing . lily : hey , devon . devon : hey . oh , just so you know , everything 's -- there 's nothing to worry about . hilary and i finalized the menu . lily : no . look , do n't worry about that . i want to know what happened upstairs . are you okay ? devon : yeah . no , i 'm fine . that was , um -- you caught me at a bad moment , and i needed to talk to hilary . everything 's cool . lily : okay . i know you , and i can tell something 's going on , so do n't say , `` nothing . `` what 's happening ? devon : i just -- i 've had a lot of things on my mind over the last few days . lily : like what ? i mean , why are you suddenly freaking out about the wedding ? devon : i did n't come down here to get interrogated , okay ? lily : look , i 'm not trying to interrogate you , but i 'm your sister , and i 'm concerned . and the more you dodge me , the more i 'm just gon na assume the worst , so just tell me what 's going on . i mean , are you having second thoughts about marrying hilary ? devon : no . i want to marry her more than anything . lily : but ... ? devon , talk to me . i can tell that you need to talk to somebody , so please , tell me . devon : there was a , um ... there was this girl at my bachelor party . lily : no , you did n't . you did n't . devon : i 'm torn up about what happened that night . cane : i got your text . you okay ? what do you need ? hilary : you know what i really need ? i need you to be honest with me , cane . what really happened at that bachelor party ? cane : why are you asking me about that ? hilary : because ever since that night , devon , he 's -- he has n't been himself . he 's ... cane : well , i do n't know what i can tell you . you know , i left early , right after the -- the girls got there . hilary : `` girls `` ? as in -- cane : look , do n't worry . it was colin . you know , keeping it classy , as usual . but devon was not into it . he made it very clear that you are the only girl he wants . okay ? hilary : that 's nice to hear . cane : lily mentioned to me earlier that there 's some tension with you and devon . weddings are emotional . he will settle down , and everything will go back to normal once you go on your honeymoon . hilary : okay . cane : okay ? [ cell phone rings ] cane : excuse me one sec . hello ? hey . sure . hilary : neil . neil : hey . i overheard what cane said about devon . do you mind if i shed some light on that subject ? neil : i realize offering you advice about my son is a little , uh ... awkward . i just wanted you to know ... i agree with cane . this is devon 's first marriage . his whole life is gon na change . this young man is gon na be very unsettled , no matter how crazy he is about his lady . but that does n't mean there 's anything for you to worry about . hilary : it 's funny . that 's almost exactly what devon said earlier . and i 'm not worried . i just ... think i have a touch of nervous bride syndrome . but if you 'll excuse me , i have some things to do . devon : i do n't remember a whole lot from that night . i know that i was having champagne . and then cane and michael left . me behind with colin and these other two girls . and then ... i remember one of the girls sitting on my lap , and she started unbuttoning my shirt . and ... then she led me into the bedroom . and the next thing that i remember is waking up in bed with her . i know what you 're thinking . lily : no . look ... i have no right to judge . people make mistakes . devon : yeah , i just do n't know how i led myself to make this one . it 's not like i was interested in having one last fling . i love hilary more than anything . lily : well , have you thought -- i mean , what if -- what if the hooker drugged you and made it seem like you guys slept together so she could get paid ? devon : i thought about that , but there 's no proof that i did n't have sex with her . and the more i 'm talking about it out loud with you , i 'm starting to think maybe i should tell her the truth and pray that she can understand . ashley : hi . great minds think alike . what 's the matter ? stitch : you know that patient i told you about ? ashley : the vet ? stitch : yeah . he died . ashley : i 'm so sorry . stitch : and all that stuff i said about coming full circle and doing what i was meant to be doing , that was a load of crap . after what happened today ... i 'm questioning whether i should be a doctor at all . victoria : i got to admit , that story you told about dad when he was first starting out and he worked hard and persevered , it hit me right here . abby : hey , who does n't love a good rags - to - riches story ? you know , i got to say , since my promotion , all the big moments that i 've had , this has been my favorite -- and not just because i was fabulous , if i do say so myself . but we were fantastic together . victoria : we were . [ laughs ] we make a great team . you know , you really proved yourself , abby . abby : thank you . victor : no . thank you . abby : well , i can not wait to tell dad how awesome we were . victoria : oh , yeah . once he hears about this , he 's gon na have us team up together all the time . abby : you know , maybe , on second thought , we should downplay it . just a little . [ both laugh ] nikki : what on earth did i just walk in on ? victor : the abbotts resent me . there 's nothing new about that . let 's not talk about that , okay ? let us ... focus on us . nikki : what about us ? victor : there 's something i think you and i should talk about . nikki : i know you want me to move back home . you do n't even have to answer . i -- i know that that 's it . and i would like to . i just ca n't yet . i 'm sorry . i have to wait a little longer . victor : okay . nikki : it does n't mean that i do n't love you . i just need a little more time apart . that 's all . victor : nikki -- nikki : i do n't want you pressuring me or manipulating me into changing my mind . is that understood ? victor : you have made yourself very clear about our living arrangement . but that 's not why i asked you to come here . nikki : it is n't ? victor : i just want to discuss our donation to the home rehab foundation , you know , and i want you to determine the amount that you want to donate , because those people helped you a lot . nikki : oh , victor that 's wonderful . that 's a fantastic idea . thank you so much . now i feel a little sheepish after what i said . victor : you do n't need to feel sheepish at all . i understand why you would jump to those conclusions , all right ? nikki : thank you . victor : i want you to come back home . it 's damn lonely without you , okay ? i do n't like it . nikki : darling , i 'm sorry . i wish i could give you a timeline , but i ca n't . victor : i know . i understand . nikki : i just need to be able to trust myself to know that i wo n't slip and wo n't start drinking again , and i just do n't know how long that takes . victor : do n't let it take too long . i miss you . nikki : and i miss you . more than you know . victoria : is something wrong ? abby : uh , no , um ... it was ben . he left me a message . he sounded kind of upset . victoria : oh . uh ... why do n't i just go downstairs and order our lunch and then give you some time to make your call ? abby : no , um , you do n't need to leave . victoria : well , you 're gon na call him back , are n't you ? abby : no . um ... i do n't think so . he did n't even tell me what was bothering him . he told me not to worry about it , not that i 'm shocked . victoria : what does that mean ? abby : when you and ben were together , did you guys talk a lot -- like , deep , meaningful conversations ? victoria : yeah . abby : oh . victoria : well , i mean , you know , i was pregnant , and ... there was a lot of heavy stuff going on . abby : well , did he ever talk about himself ? victoria : sometimes . he was in a lot of pain over his son . you know , his ex- wife , jenna , was basically shutting him out of max 's life . abby : did he talk about his time in the army ? victoria : not so much . although i know it was fairly intense for him . the survivor 's guilt and all that . abby : basically ... i do n't know . he just -- he wo n't open up to me about anything . i do n't know if he thinks i 'm too young or supercilious . i - i do n't know , and i do n't tend to ask . victoria : why do you think that is ? abby : truthfully ? maybe i 'm not up to hearing it . stitch : you know , when i was patching people up in the field , shorthanded half the time , i -- i basically felt useless . today reminded me of that ... how helpless you feel . ashley : look , i can see that this is bringing up all sorts of painful memories for you , but you told me yourself that this man needed treatment six months ago . i mean , he was too far gone . you ca n't blame yourself . stitch : yeah , but i do , ashley . i keep asking myself over and over again what i could 've done differently , what i should 've done better . james -- james , he -- he did n't trust doctors . but he trusted me . and what did he get for it ? ashley : you were compassionate . that 's what he got . you were with him every step of the way . and maybe you do n't think that matters , but i can see that it does . it matters to me , and it matters to every other person that 's gon na be lucky enough to have you treat them in the future . stitch : if you say so . ashley : i do say so . and you know what ? you ask abby later , and she 's gon na say so , too . stitch : no . she wo n't . because i 'm not telling her any of this . i ca n't talk to her the way i talk to you . devon : i do n't want to start our marriage off with lies and secrets , you know ? lily : no , i -- i get it . i understand . and i really respect you for wanting to tell her the truth . but you 'd also be taking a huge risk . look at cane and me . i tell him i have one night stand , and boom -- our marriage is over , and he tried to take the kids away from me . devon : you guys are in a much better place now , right ? lily : well , yeah . i mean , we 're not at each other 's throats over the kids anymore , but he could n't get over the fact that i slept with joe . and i knew that he was gon na find out eventually , and i thought it would be better if it came from me . but your situation is different . devon : how is it different ? lily : because you might not even have had sex with this girl , and you 're never gon na see her again . devon : and i 'm hoping that if i explain that to hilary , she 'll understand it . and after she 's done being pissed at me , she 'll find a way to put it behind her . i do n't -- i mean ... lily : i mean , she might react that way , or ... she might not be able to get the image of you and this girl out of her head . devon : well , you 're not making this any easier for me . lily : well , i 'm just trying to give you all the angles before you make a decision on whether or not you want to tell hilary . hilary : tell me what ? okay , come on . it ca n't be that bad . devon : no , baby , it 's the , um ... the food that you picked for the reception . it 's rumaki . it 's liver , right ? i do n't know if i told you -- i 'm -- i 'm not a fan of liver at all . hilary : okay . is that all ? because i think we can come to a compromise with that . devon : yes , baby , that 's -- that 's all it is is the food . victoria : i 'm really not sure what that means , abby . are n't you interested in having a deeper relationship with ben ? abby : yeah . it -- it 's not that . i want more . i just ... i do n't know if i can be the woman that he needs . when i got his voicemail today and i heard his voice , it sounded almost like he did n't know if i could handle what was going on . and then it made me wonder -- i do n't know -- maybe i ca n't . maybe i 'm out of my depth with him . does that make any sense ? victoria : yeah , it does . i think you 're just scared . abby : i 'm terrified . i love him , and i do n't want to lose him . victoria : okay . there is only one way to get past this . abby : face it head - on ? victoria : that 's right . you have to be brave , all right ? i 'm gon na wrap things up here . you get in the limo , go home . you need to go and be with ben . you need to show him that you can be the woman that he needs . stitch : i started to leave abby a message , thinking i should tell her what happened , but i -- i stopped myself . ashley : why ? stitch : ever since we got together , i -- i 've been the one looking out for her . ashley : okay . so ... what does that mean ? you just -- you 're afraid to be vulnerable with her ? i mean , it 's not easy to rely on her , i guess , when times are rough ? stitch : yeah , it 's kind of weird . plus , she 's been so excited about her new job , i did n't -- i did n't want to burden her with my issues . ashley : you could never be a burden . not to anyone . nikki : i know you 're busy . i 'll let you get back to your work . and we can talk tomorrow . the details about the donation . victor : okay . nikki : i 'll see you then . see you tomorrow . victor : bonnie , um ... yes , just , uh , forget about the dinner , okay ? and the floral arrangements . mrs. newman is not coming home tonight . yeah . hilary : what the hell is this ? is that devon with a hooker from his bachelor party ? devon : what was that for ? hilary : did you think that i would n't find out ? huh ? this wedding is off ! cane : neil ? is everything okay ? neil : it will be . [ next_on ] jack : marisa is not the enemy . phyllis : are you sure about that ? abby : i 'm back . what 'd i miss ? adam : you said that you would think about you , me , and connor settling down here in paris and starting over . let 's make a decision . chelsea : i have . | stitch tries to save his patient , james , but fails . the vet dies anyway . stitch , very upset about this , tries to call abby but gets her voicemail . ashley meets up with him and they talk . stitch admits that he ca n't talk to abby like he can talk to ashley . victor asks nikki to come to his office . she fears that he will ask her to come home and she is n't ready . victor says he understands but she should n't take too long . when nikki leaves , victor calls to cancel the arrangements he made for nikki 's homecoming . devon stresses about his bachelor party and snaps at lily and hilary when they ask for his help with wedding plans . hilary questions cane about what happened at the party , but cane knows nothing . devon opens up to lily . neil tells nikki that he is done thinking about revenge but fantasizes about showing hilary the video of devon and the prostitute . victoria and abby agree that they make a good team . abby is upset that she and ben do n't talk about important things . victoria urges her to go home and be the woman ben needs . | <s>[INST] devon : hey , cane , have you seen colin ? i 'm trying to get in touch with him . cane : no , i do n't know where he is . i assume he 's probably out having fun with that cash he won from the other night , you know ? so that means he 's probably causing some unsuspecting soul some trouble . devon : sounds like him . that 's what he 's best at . cane : okay . what has he done now ? neil : i have this real feeling that you two can make it work , as long as you 're honest with each other . and i 'm assuming that you two are honest with each other . suspicious minds and lies ... they are a killer , and they will rip love apart . lily : hilary . hey . [ chuckles ] do you agree that the chairs should be here and the flower arrangements for the ceremony should be over there ? hilary : yes . absolutely , yeah . great suggestion . lily : okay . good . i know i 'm throwing a lot at you , but we only have today to finalize the arrangements , so ... hilary : no , no . i really appreciate all of your help . i do . and i know that my wedding , it 's -- it 's gon na be perfect . neil : hilary and i , we were stuck in an elevator . and , yes , yes , i was a perfect gentleman . nikki : mm - hmm . so you said when you first got out . but i have to wonder . neil : what do you have to wonder about ? all we did was talk . nikki : yeah , about mistrust and suspicion . sounds pretty disconcerting to me . neil : it was n't like that . not at all . there was nothing sinister about it . all we did was clear the air . and , yeah , we need to do some more , but , nikki , i 'm telling you right now , as sure as i 'm sitting here , i am not -- i 'm not gon na lose it over that wedding . nikki : i really hope you mean that . neil : do n't you worry about it . honestly , i 'm fine . but i can see in your eyes that you 're not . talk to me . what 's wrong ? nikki : [ sighs ] it 's victor . what he expects of me . neil , i 'm telling you , it 's about to make me want to take a drink .

'cause , you know , we ca n't just have some random song come on . this is gon na be a song that we remember for the rest of our lives . devon : stop ! just -- i - i ca n't handle this right now . devon : i 'm sorry . i 'm just -- lily : you 're upset about something , obviously . hilary : uh , lily , can you just give us a second ? lily : yeah . sure . devon : [ clears throat ] hilary : okay . what 's going on ? huh ? because you have n't been yourself ever since the bachelor party . are you getting cold feet ? is it something i did ? devon : no , no . no , no , no , no , no . it 's nothing that you did . hilary : okay . well , then what is it ? can you just explain it to me , devon ? devon : honestly , baby , i -- i 've , um ... i have n't got caught up on sleep . you know ? and -- and there was the blackout , 'cause of the storm , and you getting stuck in the elevator with neil . which i know you 're fine , but still -- it 's -- it was weird and random . and , uh ... i 've been really stressed out with all the planning . hilary : why ? devon : well , giving the woman of my dreams the wedding she deserves is a lot of pressure . hilary : okay . well , if we 're both there , and we say `` i do , `` that will be everything that i need . devon : okay . hilary : okay ? devon : okay . then there 's nothing to worry about . hilary : all right . devon : all right . cane : hey . lily : hi . cane : you okay ? lily : uh ... yeah . no , devon had a minor freak - out , but hilary 's dealing with it , so ... cane : i 'm sure he 'll be fine . lily : well , since we have a minute , i just -- i wanted to say thank you -- again . cane : what for ? lily : for changing your mind about full custody . cane : yeah , well , you know ... it was the right thing to do for the kids . you know , we may not be together anymore , but , you know ... we 're still a family . a different kind of family , but we 'll make it work . lily : yeah . i mean , the fact that we can be in the same room and still be civil , that 's a big step . cane : yeah , it is . lily : so , you ... coming to the wedding ? cane : i was planning on it . you know , i want to be there and support devon , you know . lily : good . i think , after everything he and hilary have been through , it 's important for him to have people there who love and support him . cane : yeah . nikki : i envy your strength , the stand you 've taken . god , i would give anything to go home to the mansion , have everything be normal . neil : you 're really fearful that you 're gon na fall back on old habits . nikki : well , yeah . starting with caving and moving right back in because i know that 's what victor wants . neil : no , no , no . forget what victor wants . what about what you want ? that 's the only question that matters here . nikki : well , i love him . and i want to have a life with him . but not yet . i -- i -- i 'm just not ready to do that yet . neil : okay . then tell him that . say it . do n't let him guilt you into coming home to the ranch until you are sure that you 're ready , not a second before . because if you do , you 're gon na slip right off that wagon . nikki : so just lay down the law to the great victor newman , huh ? neil : exactly . you tell him how it 's gon na be . and do n't worry how he 's gon na react when he does n't get the answer that he 's looking for . victor : i should n't have to remind you of how you betrayed me before . ashley : you 're talking about what my family did to you after the merger . victor : not only your family . you accused me of embezzling funds . ashley : i never felt right about that , and i tried to rectify it as soon as i could . victor : were you trying to rectify it because you were afraid it would blow up in your face ? i mean , you 're talking about creating bridges between the two of us for the sake of abby , but i think you 've chosen me as the enemy , have n't you ? ashley : well , clearly , that 's your interpretation . victor : ashley , was i hallucinating when you came to my jail cell and pumped me about information about that tragic incident with your brother in the park ? you used family history , did n't you ? ashley : oh , please . how many times have you done that to me and everybody else you know , all in the name of protecting your family and your company ? i 'm not gon na argue with you about this , because it 's pointless . victor : you 're not gon na win it . ashley : do i wish the abbotts still had control of jabot ? absolutely , i do . do i hate the fact that this feud between you and my brother escalated to the point that he was in the hospital , fighting for his life ? absolutely , i do . but i 'm not planning some vindictive assault against you . i would n't do that . now , do you believe me or not ? abby : hey , you . stitch : hey . i 'm glad you picked up . abby : it 's abby . well , not really . it 's the cheap electronic version . but leave me a message , and i will get back to you in person .

[ cell phone rings ] cane : excuse me one sec . hello ? hey . sure . hilary : neil . neil : hey . i overheard what cane said about devon . do you mind if i shed some light on that subject ? neil : i realize offering you advice about my son is a little , uh ... awkward . i just wanted you to know ... i agree with cane . this is devon 's first marriage . his whole life is gon na change . this young man is gon na be very unsettled , no matter how crazy he is about his lady . but that does n't mean there 's anything for you to worry about . hilary : it 's funny . that 's almost exactly what devon said earlier . and i 'm not worried . i just ... think i have a touch of nervous bride syndrome . but if you 'll excuse me , i have some things to do . devon : i do n't remember a whole lot from that night . i know that i was having champagne . and then cane and michael left . me behind with colin and these other two girls . and then ... i remember one of the girls sitting on my lap , and she started unbuttoning my shirt . and ... then she led me into the bedroom . and the next thing that i remember is waking up in bed with her . i know what you 're thinking . lily : no . look ... i have no right to judge . people make mistakes . devon : yeah , i just do n't know how i led myself to make this one . it 's not like i was interested in having one last fling . i love hilary more than anything . lily : well , have you thought -- i mean , what if -- what if the hooker drugged you and made it seem like you guys slept together so she could get paid ? devon : i thought about that , but there 's no proof that i did n't have sex with her . and the more i 'm talking about it out loud with you , i 'm starting to think maybe i should tell her the truth and pray that she can understand . ashley : hi . great minds think alike . what 's the matter ? stitch : you know that patient i told you about ? ashley : the vet ? stitch : yeah . he died . ashley : i 'm so sorry . stitch : and all that stuff i said about coming full circle and doing what i was meant to be doing , that was a load of crap . after what happened today ... i 'm questioning whether i should be a doctor at all . victoria : i got to admit , that story you told about dad when he was first starting out and he worked hard and persevered , it hit me right here . abby : hey , who does n't love a good rags - to - riches story ? you know , i got to say , since my promotion , all the big moments that i 've had , this has been my favorite -- and not just because i was fabulous , if i do say so myself . but we were fantastic together . victoria : we were . [ laughs ] we make a great team . you know , you really proved yourself , abby . abby : thank you . victor : no . thank you . abby : well , i can not wait to tell dad how awesome we were . victoria : oh , yeah . once he hears about this , he 's gon na have us team up together all the time . abby : you know , maybe , on second thought , we should downplay it . just a little . [ both laugh ] nikki : what on earth did i just walk in on ? victor : the abbotts resent me . there 's nothing new about that . let 's not talk about that , okay ? let us ... focus on us . nikki : what about us ?

victor : you have made yourself very clear about our living arrangement . but that 's not why i asked you to come here . nikki : it is n't ? victor : i just want to discuss our donation to the home rehab foundation , you know , and i want you to determine the amount that you want to donate , because those people helped you a lot . nikki : oh , victor that 's wonderful . that 's a fantastic idea . thank you so much . now i feel a little sheepish after what i said . victor : you do n't need to feel sheepish at all . i understand why you would jump to those conclusions , all right ? nikki : thank you . victor : i want you to come back home . it 's damn lonely without you , okay ? i do n't like it . nikki : darling , i 'm sorry . i wish i could give you a timeline , but i ca n't . victor : i know . i understand . nikki : i just need to be able to trust myself to know that i wo n't slip and wo n't start drinking again , and i just do n't know how long that takes . victor : do n't let it take too long . i miss you . nikki : and i miss you . more than you know . victoria : is something wrong ? abby : uh , no , um ... it was ben . he left me a message . he sounded kind of upset . victoria : oh . uh ... why do n't i just go downstairs and order our lunch and then give you some time to make your call ? abby : no , um , you do n't need to leave . victoria : well , you 're gon na call him back , are n't you ? abby : no . um ... i do n't think so . he did n't even tell me what was bothering him . he told me not to worry about it , not that i 'm shocked . victoria : what does that mean ? abby : when you and ben were together , did you guys talk a lot -- like , deep , meaningful conversations ? victoria : yeah . abby : oh . victoria : well , i mean , you know , i was pregnant , and ... there was a lot of heavy stuff going on . abby : well , did he ever talk about himself ? victoria : sometimes . he was in a lot of pain over his son . you know , his ex- wife , jenna , was basically shutting him out of max 's life . abby : did he talk about his time in the army ? victoria : not so much . although i know it was fairly intense for him . the survivor 's guilt and all that . abby : basically ... i do n't know . he just -- he wo n't open up to me about anything . i do n't know if he thinks i 'm too young or supercilious . i - i do n't know , and i do n't tend to ask . victoria : why do you think that is ? abby : truthfully ? maybe i 'm not up to hearing it . stitch : you know , when i was patching people up in the field , shorthanded half the time , i -- i basically felt useless . today reminded me of that ... how helpless you feel . ashley : look , i can see that this is bringing up all sorts of painful memories for you , but you told me yourself that this man needed treatment six months ago . i mean , he was too far gone . you ca n't blame yourself . stitch : yeah , but i do , ashley . i keep asking myself over and over again what i could 've done differently , what i should 've done better . james -- james , he -- he did n't trust doctors . but he trusted me . and what did he get for it ? ashley : you were compassionate . that 's what he got . you were with him every step of the way . and maybe you do n't think that matters , but i can see that it does . it matters to me , and it matters to every other person that 's gon na be lucky enough to have you treat them in the future . stitch : if you say so . ashley : i do say so . and you know what ? you ask abby later , and she 's gon na say so , too . stitch : no . she wo n't . because i 'm not telling her any of this . i ca n't talk to her the way i talk to you . devon : i do n't want to start our marriage off with lies and secrets , you know ? lily : no , i -- i get it . i understand . and i really respect you for wanting to tell her the truth . but you 'd also be taking a huge risk . look at cane and me . i tell him i have one night stand , and boom -- our marriage is over , and he tried to take the kids away from me . devon : you guys are in a much better place now , right ? lily : well , yeah . i mean , we 're not at each other 's throats over the kids anymore , but he could n't get over the fact that i slept with joe . and i knew that he was gon na find out eventually , and i thought it would be better if it came from me . but your situation is different . devon : how is it different ? lily : because you might not even have had sex with this girl , and you 're never gon na see her again . devon : and i 'm hoping that if i explain that to hilary , she 'll understand it . and after she 's done being pissed at me , she 'll find a way to put it behind her . i do n't -- i mean ... lily : i mean , she might react that way , or ... she might not be able to get the image of you and this girl out of her head . devon : well , you 're not making this any easier for me . lily : well , i 'm just trying to give you all the angles before you make a decision on whether or not you want to tell hilary . hilary : tell me what ? okay , come on . it ca n't be that bad . devon : no , baby , it 's the , um ... the food that you picked for the reception . it 's rumaki . it 's liver , right ? i do n't know if i told you -- i 'm -- i 'm not a fan of liver at all . hilary : okay . is that all ?

abby : yeah . it -- it 's not that . i want more . i just ... i do n't know if i can be the woman that he needs . when i got his voicemail today and i heard his voice , it sounded almost like he did n't know if i could handle what was going on . and then it made me wonder -- i do n't know -- maybe i ca n't . maybe i 'm out of my depth with him . does that make any sense ? victoria : yeah , it does . i think you 're just scared . abby : i 'm terrified . i love him , and i do n't want to lose him . victoria : okay . there is only one way to get past this . abby : face it head - on ? victoria : that 's right . you have to be brave , all right ? i 'm gon na wrap things up here . you get in the limo , go home . you need to go and be with ben . you need to show him that you can be the woman that he needs . stitch : i started to leave abby a message , thinking i should tell her what happened , but i -- i stopped myself . ashley : why ? stitch : ever since we got together , i -- i 've been the one looking out for her . ashley : okay . so ... what does that mean ? you just -- you 're afraid to be vulnerable with her ? i mean , it 's not easy to rely on her , i guess , when times are rough ? stitch : yeah , it 's kind of weird . plus , she 's been so excited about her new job , i did n't -- i did n't want to burden her with my issues . ashley : you could never be a burden . not to anyone . nikki : i know you 're busy . i 'll let you get back to your work . and we can talk tomorrow . the details about the donation . victor : okay . nikki : i 'll see you then . see you tomorrow . victor : bonnie , um ... yes , just , uh , forget about the dinner , okay ?

[ telephone rings ] jax : you know , most women would find it , uh , a private jet ride and dinner in a restaurant of your choice quite exciting and -- dare i say it ? -- romantic . carly : come on . i do n't like being the afterthought . and the point of your trip is for you to do kate 's work . and what is she so busy with that she ca n't take the meeting herself ? jax : i do n't know ! and it does n't matter . why ca n't you just come with me ? we can get a hotel room -- carly : we have children , jax , remember them ? children . jax : and they have a great nanny . we can tuck them in and we can be back before breakfast , carly . carly : after what michael went through , i do n't want to be away from him . and after what we just went through , i do n't want to be away from you . so , you call kate and you tell her to reschedule , or she can take her meeting herself . that you have plans with me , remember ? your wife . jax : i love you , carly . and i 've told you every way i know how . but do n't give me ultimatums . i do n't like them , and it gives you no way out . carly : it 's not an ultimatum . it 's called a choice , jax . jax : yeah , well , you have a choice , too . now , you can try to manipulate me into undermining kate , or you can have a great evening and come with me . so what 's it gon na be ? are you coming or not ? carly : not . jax : not . okay , fine . [ scene_break ] kate : michael , sometimes you think you know things as facts , and it turns out they 're not really true at all . like when you thought you needed to protect your mother and morgan , and you decided to buy a gun . michael : i 'm sorry . kate : okay , michael . i did n't say it so you 'd apologize again , all right ? you 've already done that , and i believe you . i accept it . michael : but it was stupid . kate : well , the instinct to protect your family is a good one . we all want to protect the family that we love , the people that we care about . but i think that we can both agree that you kind of went about it in the wrong way , right ? lying to everyone , including your parents , especially your parents . hiding a gun . michael : i should -- i know i should n't have left you . i know i should have called 911 . but i looked down and saw all this blood on my hands . i got scared . kate : i know , michael . i know . it 's okay , all right ? it 's okay to be scared . michael , you 're just a boy . like it or not , there are rules for kids that are different from adults , all right ? you ca n't drink . you ca n't drive . you ca n't vote . you ca n't own a gun . but there is a bright side to everything , i promise you . because you know what ? in the past , your dad 's job may have included violence , but that 's all gon na change . and you get to be a part of that change . [ scene_break ] alexis : the dead guy was i.d . 'd as a randall compton . his last address was in martha 's vineyard , and we have reason to believe that he had connections to ric 's girlfriend , marianna . sonny : well , that 's probably who you need to speak to . alexis : no , she 's gone . she left town . in a hurry , i might add . sonny : i do n't know any of these people . i mean , talk to ric , because i 'm sure ric knows everything , right ? alexis : typically , when a dead body is involved , you are , too . sonny : alexis , i do n't know randall whatever , and it 's been , you know , a long time since i 've been to martha 's vineyard . anything that has to do with ric really does n't interest me , so ... alexis : compton was killed by a blow to his head , which could have been caused by debris from the explosion . sonny : it 's still not my problem . alexis : however , kate was shot nearby , and the shooter was never found , so is it possible that you got to him first and had him taken out ? sonny : shh . i got to say -- there 's something i got ta tell you , okay ? alexis : if this is a confession , you need to call a lawyer . sonny : no , this is -- this is not something i would be telling the d.a . the only reason i 'm telling you is because you are the mother of one of my children . [ scene_break ] trevor : do n't lose sight of the big picture . unless you go after sonny , he 's going to take it as a sign of weakness . claudia : i think trevor 's got his own agenda . smells like self preservation . trevor : oh , claudia , there is one person in this room with an agenda , and that is you . claudia : you are hot for my brother to kill sonny before sonny can kill you . johnny : now that you own the alcazar piers , you figure sonny 's gon na try to take you out . makes sense to me . claudia : that would be my plan . johnny : one way out , trevor . sell me the piers . i 'll be happy to relieve you of that responsibility . trevor : [ laughs ] unless you really want to talk business , talk is cheap . you know , you 'd better have a plan . because if you do nothing , you 're dead . claudia : john . do n't worry . sonny will be dead in an hour . [ scene_break ] jason : you can never leave this business , not completely . spinelli : have you tried ? jason : twice . once i got pulled back in . once i came back on my own . i got commitments , spinelli , i ca n't get out of . spinelli : said commitments need not impede you from achieving familial harmony with elizabeth and your progeny . jason : okay , i mean , you know , trevor taking over the piers should have upset the balance of power , but things are calm right now . spinelli : that 's exactly what i 'm saying . jason : i do n't know . i do n't know . maybe . it might be -- it might be possible to make some changes . spinelli : change is a natural state of being , okay ? permanence -- permanence is an illusion . the cosmos are forever in flux . jason : what are you saying ? spinelli : your first concern , first and foremost , will always be that of the safety of elizabeth and her offspring . but , i mean , you have more than proven yourself to the task by your righteous job of protecting mr. corinthos ' children . why not apply those same skills to your own family ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : jason deserves to be happy . robin : and so do you . okay , so do i . but honestly , if the right man came along and wanted to be involved in my life and the child 's life , in a heartbeat . elizabeth : okay , so what about patrick ? robin : patrick does n't know what he wants . and the baby and i are not going to be a test case for him to help him figure that out . elizabeth : well , at least you know that patrick 's job is not gon na put the baby in any danger . you 're probably the only other person that gets it . you and jason ultimately broke up because of the violence , right ? robin : it was more about how our lives were just going in different directions . and then there was carly . of course , you know , where there 's jason , there 's always carly . elizabeth : i know , i know . well , she 's not really the problem . if it were just me , i would have been with jason forever ago , but i -- i just do n't want to put my kids in danger . robin : well , it 's your call . and if i can tell you anything from my own childhood , my mom and my dad were always in danger , and what i remember and what i 'm grateful for is the love . [ scene_break ] johnny : are you sure this hit wo n't be traced back to us ? claudia : no , john , it 's gon na look exactly like what it is -- a third - party hit . and we 'll be mortified that such a thing could happen when we all just declared peace . but we need airtight alibis . something even jason morgan 's gon na have to buy . johnny : okay , i 'm gon na meet with luke spencer about the haunted star budget . claudia : i 'm not sure that 's a great idea . johnny : luke and sonny are great friends . they 're old friends . he 's the perfect person for me to be sitting with when sonny dies . claudia : yeah , unless luke figures out that you 're using him . this is risky , johnny . taking sonny out is a huge risk . you need to keep your hands clean . [ scene_break ] alexis : obviously , this sounds important . alexis : just say it , all right ? because when you do this , it makes me really nervous . sonny : i do n't -- i do n't want you to , you know , look , i do n't want you acting on this information in a formal capacity . i would not tell the d.a . this . i would n't -- alexis : okay , you can trust me as our daughter 's mother . sonny : michael shot kate . alexis : on purpose ? sonny : no , no . it was an accident . he -- for whatever reason , he felt that he had to protect carly and morgan , and after emily and leticia were murdered , he bought a gun off some punk . alexis : he bought a gun ? sonny : yes , he bought a gun . alexis : he 's 12 . sonny : well , i mean ... alexis : he 's 12 . he bought a gun , and he had it in the house with his little brother . man . oh .

[ scene_break ] johnny : you 're trying to force me into a war , trevor . what 's in it for you ? trevor : john , this truce that you brokered with sonny , it does nothing but give him more time to plan your murder . claudia : sweet . trevor 's worried about you . trevor : for god 's sake , john . the only way that you can stay alive is a pre- emptive strike . kill sonny or he is gon na kill you . [ telephone rings ] johnny : [ scoffs ] sonny could have killed me when he had the chance . not that i enjoy being locked up , beaten , and starved , but if he wanted me dead , i 'd already be that way . so your warning ? kinda pointless . claudia : yeah . ian : hello , gorgeous . claudia : where are you ? ian : i 'm right where you want me . claudia : any sign of our friend ? ian : corinthos should arrive within the hour . claudia : call me when it 's done . ian : will do . [ scene_break ] max : i do n't like this , mr. c. you need a couple of guards around you just as a precaution . sonny : max , tonight is legitimate business . michael and kate are going to be there . so what do you want ? max : okay , look . i 'll be in the background . i 'll keep my distance . you wo n't even know -- sonny : max , i appreciate your concern . it 's very nice . but you know what i want you to do ? take the night off .

'cause tonight i got important plans with my son . [ scene_break ] spinelli : it is a most auspicious sign that stone cold could return home , you know , find elizabeth waiting and -- and greet her with no fear of danger for her person . if you do n't mind me saying so . jason : when has that ever stopped you ? spinelli : well , i just -- if you could look at the lady of your heart today and not fear for her safety , what 's to say that that same thing could n't happen tomorrow or the next day ? jason : okay , what are you -- what are you gettin ' at ? spinelli : i 'm just simply commenting on the ebb in mob hostility . would n't the master agree that said ebb might continue , considering , you know , john zacchara and mr. corinthos are keeping their hostilities at bay , which would allow stone cold 's work to become a little less cold and that new - found warmth would potentially allow , you know , fair elizabeth and her progeny , namely the young jake , to walk in the sunlight with you ? [ scene_break ] robin : honestly , you 're an inspiration to me . really , every time i try to doubt myself about raising this child without a father , i look at you , and i see how you do it , and i know that it just does n't have to be a disaster . elizabeth : well , no one ever knows what kind of parent they 're going to be until it actually happens . and then you just do the best you can and you pray . a lot . but sometimes you do want more . robin : is that a general longing or specific to one person ? elizabeth : okay , um , between you and me ... i want to be with jason . robin : jason , um , he was my -- i mean , my rock after stone died . he taught me how to love again . i am the first person to admit how special he is . i also know how much his heart broke when he lost michael , and honestly , i have had to live with that . that he lost michael because of me . elizabeth : but you wanted to keep this baby a secret from patrick . robin : i was working from a different perspective . a perspective that i did not have with jason and michael . but now i 'm -- i 'm really glad that patrick knows . elizabeth : those things have a way of coming out eventually . robin : jason was a terrific father with a great capacity to love a child . elizabeth : i know . when jason and i first became friends , he had just given up custody of michael , and i thought lucky was dead . that was our common ground . it was a safe place for grieving for a person you lost . and i -- i would tell myself at least he knows that michael is safe and alive . but now i realize his situation was so much harder because he had to make a huge sacrifice because he thought that was best for this little boy that he loved . robin : i guess that 's why i 'm meddling . i 've just always hoped that jason would get a chance to be a father to a child or children that need him . [ scene_break ] carly : when did kate howard 's place in you life become more important than mine ? jax : do n't put words in my mouth . carly : i 'm not . we had dinner plans , and now you 're telling me that if i want to have dinner with you , i have to fly to houston because kate ca n't be bothered to take her own meeting ? jax : no , kate had plans when this came up . carly : so did you . dinner with me , remember ? [ telephone rings ] jax : you know , most women would find it , uh , a private jet ride and dinner in a restaurant of your choice quite exciting and -- dare i say it ? -- romantic . carly : come on . i do n't like being the afterthought . and the point of your trip is for you to do kate 's work . and what is she so busy with that she ca n't take the meeting herself ? jax : i do n't know ! and it does n't matter . why ca n't you just come with me ? we can get a hotel room -- carly : we have children , jax , remember them ? children . jax : and they have a great nanny . we can tuck them in and we can be back before breakfast , carly . carly : after what michael went through , i do n't want to be away from him . and after what we just went through , i do n't want to be away from you . so , you call kate and you tell her to reschedule , or she can take her meeting herself . that you have plans with me , remember ? your wife . jax : i love you , carly . and i 've told you every way i know how . but do n't give me ultimatums . i do n't like them , and it gives you no way out . carly : it 's not an ultimatum . it 's called a choice , jax . jax : yeah , well , you have a choice , too . now , you can try to manipulate me into undermining kate , or you can have a great evening and come with me . so what 's it gon na be ? are you coming or not ? carly : not . jax : not . okay , fine . [ scene_break ] kate : michael , sometimes you think you know things as facts , and it turns out they 're not really true at all . like when you thought you needed to protect your mother and morgan , and you decided to buy a gun . michael : i 'm sorry . kate : okay , michael . i did n't say it so you 'd apologize again , all right ? you 've already done that , and i believe you . i accept it . michael : but it was stupid . kate : well , the instinct to protect your family is a good one . we all want to protect the family that we love , the people that we care about . but i think that we can both agree that you kind of went about it in the wrong way , right ? lying to everyone , including your parents , especially your parents . hiding a gun . michael : i should -- i know i should n't have left you . i know i should have called 911 . but i looked down and saw all this blood on my hands . i got scared . kate : i know , michael . i know . it 's okay , all right ? it 's okay to be scared . michael , you 're just a boy . like it or not , there are rules for kids that are different from adults , all right ? you ca n't drink . you ca n't drive . you ca n't vote . you ca n't own a gun . but there is a bright side to everything , i promise you . because you know what ? in the past , your dad 's job may have included violence , but that 's all gon na change . and you get to be a part of that change . [ scene_break ] alexis : the dead guy was i.d . 'd as a randall compton . his last address was in martha 's vineyard , and we have reason to believe that he had connections to ric 's girlfriend , marianna . sonny : well , that 's probably who you need to speak to . alexis : no , she 's gone . she left town . in a hurry , i might add . sonny : i do n't know any of these people . i mean , talk to ric , because i 'm sure ric knows everything , right ? alexis : typically , when a dead body is involved , you are , too . sonny : alexis , i do n't know randall whatever , and it 's been , you know , a long time since i 've been to martha 's vineyard . anything that has to do with ric really does n't interest me , so ... alexis : compton was killed by a blow to his head , which could have been caused by debris from the explosion . sonny : it 's still not my problem . alexis : however , kate was shot nearby , and the shooter was never found , so is it possible that you got to him first and had him taken out ? sonny : shh . i got to say -- there 's something i got ta tell you , okay ? alexis : if this is a confession , you need to call a lawyer . sonny : no , this is -- this is not something i would be telling the d.a . the only reason i 'm telling you is because you are the mother of one of my children . [ scene_break ] trevor : do n't lose sight of the big picture . unless you go after sonny , he 's going to take it as a sign of weakness . claudia : i think trevor 's got his own agenda . smells like self preservation . trevor : oh , claudia , there is one person in this room with an agenda , and that is you . claudia : you are hot for my brother to kill sonny before sonny can kill you . johnny : now that you own the alcazar piers , you figure sonny 's gon na try to take you out . makes sense to me . claudia : that would be my plan . johnny : one way out , trevor . sell me the piers . i 'll be happy to relieve you of that responsibility . trevor : [ laughs ] unless you really want to talk business , talk is cheap . you know , you 'd better have a plan . because if you do nothing , you 're dead . claudia : john . do n't worry . sonny will be dead in an hour . [ scene_break ] jason : you can never leave this business , not completely . spinelli : have you tried ? jason : twice . once i got pulled back in . once i came back on my own . i got commitments , spinelli , i ca n't get out of . spinelli : said commitments need not impede you from achieving familial harmony with elizabeth and your progeny . jason : okay , i mean , you know , trevor taking over the piers should have upset the balance of power , but things are calm right now . spinelli : that 's exactly what i 'm saying . jason : i do n't know . i do n't know . maybe . it might be -- it might be possible to make some changes . spinelli : change is a natural state of being , okay ? permanence -- permanence is an illusion . the cosmos are forever in flux . jason : what are you saying ? spinelli : your first concern , first and foremost , will always be that of the safety of elizabeth and her offspring . but , i mean , you have more than proven yourself to the task by your righteous job of protecting mr. corinthos ' children . why not apply those same skills to your own family ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : jason deserves to be happy . robin : and so do you . okay , so do i . but honestly , if the right man came along and wanted to be involved in my life and the child 's life , in a heartbeat . elizabeth : okay , so what about patrick ? robin : patrick does n't know what he wants . and the baby and i are not going to be a test case for him to help him figure that out . elizabeth : well , at least you know that patrick 's job is not gon na put the baby in any danger . you 're probably the only other person that gets it . you and jason ultimately broke up because of the violence , right ? robin : it was more about how our lives were just going in different directions . and then there was carly . of course , you know , where there 's jason , there 's always carly . elizabeth : i know , i know . well , she 's not really the problem . if it were just me , i would have been with jason forever ago , but i -- i just do n't want to put my kids in danger . robin : well , it 's your call . and if i can tell you anything from my own childhood , my mom and my dad were always in danger , and what i remember and what i 'm grateful for is the love . [ scene_break ] johnny : are you sure this hit wo n't be traced back to us ? claudia : no , john , it 's gon na look exactly like what it is -- a third - party hit . and we 'll be mortified that such a thing could happen when we all just declared peace . but we need airtight alibis . something even jason morgan 's gon na have to buy . johnny : okay , i 'm gon na meet with luke spencer about the haunted star budget . claudia : i 'm not sure that 's a great idea . johnny : luke and sonny are great friends . they 're old friends . he 's the perfect person for me to be sitting with when sonny dies . claudia : yeah , unless luke figures out that you 're using him . this is risky , johnny . taking sonny out is a huge risk . you need to keep your hands clean . [ scene_break ] alexis : obviously , this sounds important . alexis : just say it , all right ? because when you do this , it makes me really nervous . sonny : i do n't -- i do n't want you to , you know , look , i do n't want you acting on this information in a formal capacity . i would not tell the d.a . this . i would n't -- alexis : okay , you can trust me as our daughter 's mother . sonny : michael shot kate . alexis : on purpose ? sonny : no , no . it was an accident . he -- for whatever reason , he felt that he had to protect carly and morgan , and after emily and leticia were murdered , he bought a gun off some punk . alexis : he bought a gun ? sonny : yes , he bought a gun . alexis : he 's 12 . sonny : well , i mean ... alexis : he 's 12 . he bought a gun , and he had it in the house with his little brother . man . oh .

[ scene_break ] alexis : i do n't want you to lie to me about this any more , okay ? because it has too much of a profound effect on our daughter . sonny : i 'm not saying i 'm getting out of the business , 'cause you and i both know that if i tried that , it would be like committing suicide . but i am concentrating on my legitimate holdings . alexis : what is the point of that ? it 's just a cover for the mob . sonny : no , it 's not just a cover for the mob because i want -- i want my kids to , you know , to not have lives that are tainted , you know ? i want them -- i fell into this . they do n't have to . i want them to inherit something that is n't soaked in blood . alexis : and you -- you just came to this conclusion now because of michael and kate ? sonny : they 're growing up . i got ta make changes , you know . i do n't want kristina or morgan to have to go through what -- what michael did . i 'm -- i 'm -- i know it 's hard for you to believe me , but i 'm making peace . i 'm going to try to show them a different way . they 're actually -- kate and michael are meeting me at the warehouse because i got a coffee shipment coming in . it 's just coffee , trust me . i want michael , you know , to see what his dad does for a living . and i ca n't do that standing here answering questions about , you know , a dead man that i 've never met , so ... alexis : okay , go . sonny : okay . alexis : yeah . sonny . um , have a good time with your son .
