[ scene_break ] steffy : and if we hurry , we can introduce the line at the height of hollywood party season . imagine it -- the whole world focused on the oscars , the stars and what they 're wearing as we 're rolling out the after party line . hundreds of millions of people watch the oscars and the after parties , and what are they looking at ? fashion . and i 'll make sure our designs are front and center . donna : it 's very impressive . brooke : you 've turned this around quickly . ( sighs ) nice job . steffy : thank you . katie : yes , really , good work . but i do have one question -- in our last collection , the hollywood glamour line , we had cocktail dresses , so how does this differ from what we 've just done ? [ scene_break ] sandy : it was the -- the night that i had my head shots done at the party after . whip : five years or so ago . yeah , i was there . sandy : and then you left . whip : something happened after i left ? sandy : i was given a drink , um ... tequila , i think . it was drugged . and -- and when i woke up a lot of hours later ... i was really messed up . ( inhales sharply ) whip : who , aggie ? sandy : ( sniffles ) i do n't know . i do n't know . ( laughs ) i went to the hospital , and they took d.n.a . tests , and the police were brought in . whip : just tell me that they caught him , okay ? sandy : ( sniffles ) whip : tell me -- tell me they caught the guy . sandy : no . he 's still out there somewhere . [ scene_break ] stephanie : i think about eric and you and your brother and your sister working so hard to make this company a success , and i 'm really worried that your children are not going to get their due . ridge : my kids have always believed that there 's a legacy here at forrester for them . stephanie : well , there should be , and there would be if it were n't for the logan girls . ridge : all right , please tell me you 're not here to beat up brooke and her sisters . stephanie : i 'm not here to beat up anybody . i 'm here to support you , but you 've got to face the reality . the three of them are running the company . you ca n't deny that . ridge : that 's gon na change . stephanie : oh , really ? before or after they bring the rest of the clan over and take the business over completely ? [ scene_break ] katie : i mean , do you understand what i 'm saying ? as prepared as you are , this seems a little like a retread . steffy : hollywood glamour was a retro look at classic hollywood fashion . but the after party is -- is a piping hot modern collection of dresses designed for the youth market that we 're after . katie : there are rumors circulating everywhere about this daring breakout collection that we suddenly canceled . e - everyone is clamoring to see what we 're gon na do next . i mean , how is it gon na look if we just reload hollywood glamour and pass it off as our brilliant new campaign ? steffy : ( sighs ) brooke : katie has a point . even if it were terrific , people will talk . steffy : they 'll talk about how incredible it is . we 're appealing to a whole new demographic . the print ads , the media -- it 'll all be different . katie : how are you gon na accomplish that ? steffy : i want you to meet someone . madison , could you let in graham ? thank you . graham : taylor . brooke : taylor , what are you doing here ? taylor : well , i was waiting outside for steffy , and he invited me in . brooke : ah . steffy : everyone , i 'd like you to meet graham darros . graham : ( sighs ) brooke : you 're a photographer . donna : and a very good photographer if you 're the same graham darros who did the river reed festival in vancouver . graham : well , thank you . since then , i 've , uh , actually been working a lot in europe , but now that i am back , i would so love to turn your after party campaign into the success i know it can be . katie : how did you hear about it ? graham : well , steffy tracked me down , actually . she sold me on it . i think it 's brilliant . i mean , a fashion house as renowned as forrester just never quite took advantage of the youth market , and i 've been lucky enough to make a career out of promoting that market . anyways , you guys are in your , uh , your meeting . i 'll , uh , i 'll just wait outside for your decision , okay ? ladies . steffy : we ca n't miss with this guy shooting our layouts . everything he touches turns into success . profits , katie -- your husband will love that . katie : great . hope , you 're up . steffy : up for what ? katie : uh , hope has an idea that she would like to pitch for a new collection . hope , the floor is all yours . hope : okay . [ scene_break ] whip : why did n't you tell me ? i would have helped . sandy : i could n't tell you . i could n't -- i could n't even look at you or any man for a long time . whip : i 'm so sorry . sandy : ( sniffles ) whip : okay . i 'm sorry . i ca n't imagine what you must have been feeling . sandy : ( sighs ) whip : ( inhales sharply ) it kills me that i could n't do anything for you . sandy : it 's okay . you know what ? nick has really -- he 's really helping me with this , and the police are on it now . whip : oh , now ? that 's great . ( sighs ) sandy : yeah . they , um , explained to me about budget cuts and , you know , the expense of d.n.a . testing . ( sniffles ) but ... ( sniffles ) i just -- it really got to me , you know , that there 's so many women that are just like me , and they 're waiting for answers , for answers for crimes that should put a guy away for the rest of his life . and i do n't know . i know that the police are gon na turn it around , and they 're gon na process all of those kits , and they 're gon na put those criminals -- whip : aggie , aggie , aggie , listen to me . i need ... sandy : ( sniffles ) whip : ( sighs ) i need for you to talk to me about the party and who was there . [ scene_break ] ridge : look , i refuse to believe that brooke and her sisters want to turn forrester creations into logan creations . brooke is my wife . she wants to see me running this company . stephanie : not sneaking anymore children in , are they ? i mean , we 've got rick ... ( laughs ) and now , for goodness sakes , marcus . ridge : well , marcus is doing a great job . stephanie : uh - huh . ridge : there 's no conspiracy going on here . stephanie : i just do n't want to see taylor 's children passed over . ridge : steffy and thomas are always gon na have a place in this company . who knows ? maybe someday , they 'll be running it . stephanie : i hope so . i see taylor a lot , you know . ridge : well , i imagine you would . you 're living with her . stephanie : she 's doing very well , now that you ask . ridge : i 'm glad . stephanie : of course , on the other hand , i 'm sure she 'd -- well , never mind . ridge : thank you . stephanie : oh , no . i was gon na tell you she 's dating someone . [ scene_break ] hope : well , it 's simple , really , almost too simple . um , a new generation , my generation , going out into the world to make their mark -- college , that first job , so much to live for , so much to dress for . now what kids do n't have -- the only thing they do n't have -- is money , but we still want to look great , you know , dress to kill , be on the forefront of whatever that new fashion trend might be . so where do we spend our money ? well , a chunk of that is on clothes , clothes that not only set us apart , but , yes , make a statement . and what is that statement ? what does my generation stand for ? how does the world view this new fledgling group of young adults ? as hope , hope for the future and , thus , the name of the new line -- clothes that define what we stand for , clothes that give us an identity -- you know , a line so raw , so edgy , so out there . i present to you forrester 's new campaign -- hope for the future . steffy : wait a minute . you 're naming the line after yourself . hope : kind of , but it 's really naming it after a concept , you know , one that defines my generation . steffy : you ca n't be seriously considering this . donna : i think it 's pretty unique . brooke : you have to admit , it is pretty compelling . katie : i love it . hope for the future . hope : oh , well , you 're the one -- katie : we 're going with it . hope : really ? katie : yes , absolutely . steffy : what about hollywood glamour ? katie : well , steffy , what we have here are two really great ideas . one of them is maybe a little stale . the other one is a breath of fresh air , easily marketable . we 'll cancel glamour . steffy : you 're cancelling a successful line . taylor : wait , wait , wait , wait , wait . where 's the hook ? i mean , how can you design an entire line around the word `` hopeful `` ? what -- i mean , what are they gon na be made of , you -- 3-ring binders , paper ? brooke : my husband will come up with the designs , and i 'm sure they 'll be fabulous . katie : and steffy will work closely with hope to market her concept . steffy : is this really a good concept , katie , or is there something more going on here ? [ scene_break ] ridge : whip jones ? stephanie : yeah , they 're seeing quite a bit of each other . it 's nothing serious . i 'm -- i 'm sure he 's not her first preference . ridge : mother , i have way too much going on to worry about taylor 's love life . stephanie : ( laughs ) i bet you do with those three girls undoing all the hard work you and eric have done . ridge : okay , you can stop with that now . stephanie : so you 're going to continue to work here under katie 's shadow ? ridge : i 'm just biding my time . stephanie : are you happy , honey ? ridge : ( sighs ) my kids , uh , that 's what makes me happy -- having steffy and thomas here , watching them develop their talent . steffy came up with a great hollywood glamour line . it was brilliant . now she 's got a sequel to that that i think will be equally as exciting . stephanie : good for her . i got to get back to the office . i have a meeting . ridge : i 'll walk you to your car . come on . stephanie : oh , how nice . thank you very much . sweetheart ... do n't trust anyone . did n't i teach you that a long time ago ? ridge : right . everyone 's out to get me , including my wife . stephanie : yes . ridge : yeah . stephanie : ( chuckles ) [ scene_break ] sandy : whip , you do n't have to take this on , okay ? whip : yeah -- sandy : now the police are on it , and nick has been a godsend , but listen to me . you do n't say a word about this to bridget -- not a word , okay ? i do n't want her to stress out about this , and i know that she will . whip : ( sighs ) okay . it 's been quite a few years , actually , anyway . ( sighs ) what was that photographer 's name ? um ... was it gordon ? no , graham , right ? sandy : graham . yes , graham . whip : right . sandy : i think he 's actually hit it big since then -- graham darros . [ scene_break ] graham : they took a pass on your after party project ? steffy : yeah . look , i 'm -- i 'm so sorry i wasted your time . graham : no , no . you did n't . i 'm just -- i 'm surprised . it was a winner , steff . steffy : well , maybe they 'll want you to shoot hope . ( sighs ) graham : ( sighs ) well , you -- you 're probably not gon na want to hear this , but she 's a beautiful girl . i 'd probably enjoy it . i just -- ( clicks tongue ) i do n't know . i just feel bad for you . steffy : oh , it is so obvious katie has it out for me . i 'd like to put her in her place . maybe i should . [ scene_break ] taylor : brooke ... ( scoffs ) you have got to talk to your sister . hope has zero experience . brooke : maybe that 's what we need -- a new approach . taylor : no , that -- ( scoffs ) is exactly what steffy is qualified to do . look at the success of the -- of the hollywood glamour line . look how great that was . it only makes common business sense that she would be the one to follow it up . brooke : she 'll have other chances to do that , but this is hope 's moment . taylor : your daughter 's moment , you mean . brooke : the decision 's been made . taylor : well , have you thought about how this is going to affect your marriage ? you know why ridge is here . the only reason he is still here after everything he 's been through -- it 's a miracle he did n't leave a long time ago . the only reason he 's here is because of his daughter . this is her legacy , and when he finds out that his daughter has been passed over for yours , he is not going to be happy . brooke : taylor , it did n't happen that way . taylor : i was there , brooke . that 's exactly what happened . brooke : gosh , you do n't know anything about this business . what hope did today was huge , and ridge will see that . taylor : no , ridge is going to be pushed to his ultimate limit . he will walk , brooke , and it wo n't be just from this company . brooke : oh , i see . ( chuckles ) that 's good . yeah , you would really love that , would n't you ? you 've always had this glimmer of hope that you two would get back together . taylor : okay , fine . fine . you know , do n't say you have n't been warned . brooke : you are so transparent , all this so - called advice that you give , when really , you 're just trying to stir up trouble , and this time you 're using our children . how pathetic . taylor : ooh . w - wow . ridge : what 's going on ? taylor : hmm . you want to tell him ? brooke : yes . yes , i do . taylor : okay . brooke : a decision 's been made about the promotional campaign . ridge : well , we 're gon na be going with the hollywood glamour line , right ? brooke : well , we decided to go with something new , actually . um , it 's -- it 's something different . we 're going in a different direction . ridge : what direction is that ? brooke : mm . it 's called hope -- hope for the future . ridge : steffy 's idea ? brooke : no . it was hope 's , actually . ridge : your daughter , our new intern -- you chose her idea over steffy 's ? brooke : uh , okay , i can see you 're not really happy with this , but you know what ? it 's really a great concept , and if you just give me a chance to tell you about it ... ridge ? ridge : logan , i helped steffy with that presentation . she believes in it , and so do i . but you and your sisters went to your teenaged daughter 's idea instead of steffy 's ? what 's going on here ? this -- this time , i 'm afraid you 've gone too far here . i 've had enough . brooke : ridge , wait . ridge : no . this is it . brooke , i 'm done , finished . brooke : what are you saying ? ridge : i 'm telling you it 's over . | stephanie tells ridge that it is all over the street what he has been up to . she is sorry it did n't work . he tells her that thomas is working his tail off and steffy is presenting her new concept . she tells him she is not there to beat up on the logan girls , but the three of them are running the company . ridge vows that wo n't last much longer . steffy introduces the hollywood glamour line .. the afterparty . she 's a little flustered when hope joins them in the meeting . katie questions steffy . they already had the glamour line complete with cocktail dresses , so this would have to be a lot different . katie reminds steffy that after the failed dare line , the public and reporters will be expecting more than an old redo . steffy introduces a new hot photographer and tells the group that this is ca n't miss . everything he touches turns to gold . sandy tells whip that she is pretty ashamed of herself , for taking her feelings out on him . she 's better now , but she 's like him to know what happened . it was the night of the party after her photo shot . whip left , and something happened . slowly she lays out the facts and they have not caught the guy . he is still out there somewhere . | <s>[INST] ridge : you 're worried about me ? come on , mother . stephanie : well , it 's all over the street about your dare campaign . i - i think i know what you were up to . i 'm sorry it did n't work . ridge : yeah , we took one hell of a chance with that , but we came so close . stephanie : what 's your next idea ? ridge : i do n't really know , but we are gon na get this company back . it 's the only reason i stayed on here , that and my kids . stephanie : and how are they ? ridge : thomas is working his tail off , and steffy , uh ... stephanie : and steffy ? ridge : she 's gon na start a new p.r . campaign ... stephanie : ah . ridge : to replace the dare line . stephanie : mm - hmm . ridge : she really needs this . she 's been going through kind of a rough time lately .

[ laughter ] rey : oh , good . you 're here . kyle : sorry about that . rey : i wanted everyone together because now i have a very special surprise for my gorgeous wife . phyllis : just help me understand exactly what you 're thinking here . because your mom has changed her story so many times , but yet , i 'm the one being doubted here . i saved her . i protected your sister . i honored the agreement we had , and yet , i am the one under suspicion here . nick : you lied . you told mom and vick the poker was at the bottom of the lake . phyllis : yes . yes , it was n't the complete truth . i went to the lake , but after calming everyone down , after dealing with the corpse , i knew it was on me to deal with the murder weapon . and i realized maybe , just maybe , i may need that one day to protect myself , legally . because , in this little group , i am the odd man out . no one 's gon na swoop in and save red . and it turns out , i am right because your mother just confessed homicide to you , and yet , i 'm the one being interrogated here . nick : then the poker showed up at the ranch , the one you had . phyllis : how many times have i told you ? i do n't anything about that ! the poker was in a storage unit . someone broke in , they took it , then they did what they did with it ! nick : are you hearing yourself right now ? phyllis : yes , i am hearing myself , and i 'm hearing you , too , and i 'm hearing a lot of accusation towards me , which i do n't deserve . nick : you claimed my dad was guilty when you knew , more than anyone , that he was n't ! we talked about this . i heard you say you wanted dad to rot in jail . phyllis , if you can mastermind this cover - up , you sure as hell can frame him for murder . devon : so now cane feels entitled to go up with you and the kids to visit lily ? that 's not gon na happen . i 'll clear my schedule , though , so i can go with you guys . neil : no , no , no . do n't worry about that . i think it 's best if i just take the kids myself , you know ? lily needs to spend some time with them alone , and when she 's ready for more , then she 'll let us know . devon : sure . neil : hey . devon : hmm ? neil : lily 's not my only priority . i mean , how are things going with you ? devon : i actually got to finally have a sit - down with that songwriter . neil : oh , yeah ! the reclusive genius . devon : right . neil : how 'd you swing that ? devon : ana set it up . neil : really ? devon : yeah . neil : so what do you think ? someone we can work with ? devon : absolutely . neil : your sister has an eye for new talent . devon : yeah , she sure does , and it 's probably because she 's so damn talented herself . earlier today , i caught her singing at the piano . neil : ahh ! lucky man . she 's been hiding a light under that bushel lately , huh ? devon : it got a little dusty in here for me , too . neil : what ? really ? cried some tears ? devon : yeah , it just hit me out of nowhere . neil : hey . there 's no shame in emotion . you know ? all that noise about men being stoic and shut down ... do n't trip on that , do n't fall for it . devon : mm . neil : you know , you think you 're riding it out , but i 'm telling you , man , those tears do n't just dry up and go away . those feelings ... they 'll stay right there . that knot you feel at night when you 're trying to sleep ... or the dust when you hear a song . devon : i know , i ca n't keep dumping all my issues on you guys , though . neil : no , no , come on . you 're not dumping . i love you to tears , man . we all love you . if it 's not us , then talk to your therapist . devon : i know . i 've been doing that , but it 's just ... neil : it 's just a process . i know . so if listening to ana 's music gives you that kind of release , then , my brother , keep listening .

's murder . the kind that was left at the stables for the cops to find . why would i try to trick the cops with the wrong murder weapon ? nick : to cover up your own guilt ? if all the attention is on my dad , then they 're not looking at you or mom or vick . phyllis : i never pretended to give a damn about your father , and i wish he 'd served every day of original sentence for what he did to me . but this is a fact , nick . i did not frame your father . but now that it happened , why are we not letting him take the heat ? he will never be convicted . letting everyone think he is guilty is the only way to keep nikki safe . nick : okay , so you are just worried about my mom . phyllis : i am worried about our family . summer , faith , christian should not see their grandmother rot in prison . come on , you know that victor loves playing the noble protector . let him take the fall . nick : so if he 's not acquitted , then `` oh , well . `` phyllis : you know what , i told you -- i did not frame him . and i need you to trust me on this . but you don't . i mean , you really do not . nick : there 's just been too many lies , phyllis , and not just to me , but to mom and victoria . phyllis : what are you talking about ? nikki and victoria have also lied . they 've lied to you , they lied to the cops , they lied to every single person that i 've lied to , and yet , i 'm the villain . how about you tell me why you cut them the slack that you refuse to cut me ? cane : you know , i racked my brain to try and understand how i could have hurt lily like this again . you know , i want to -- i want to do what is right , you know ? and ... you know , every night , i tell sam how much she misses him and how much she loves him and just how lucky he is to have her in his life . and , you know , with the twins , i mean , they 're coping , but things come up , and when they do , we deal with is as a family because , you know , like , i say to myself in times like these , `` what would lily do ? `` you know ? because she 's my guidepost . but when she 's not with me , i just ... it 's like i make these mistakes , you know , like with victoria , and i self - sabotage , you know ? i prove to myself that i do n't deserve her , and i don't . because she 's in there , and i 'm out here , and i -- i cracked . because when she 's not with me , i 'm not the man that i want to be . kerry : well , this is a new side of you . jack : what , expecting the courtesy of an honest explanation ? kerry : setting a trap for me to walk into . jack : what is going on here ? why are n't you giving me a straight answer ? if you do n't want to see me , for whatever reason , just be mature enough to tell me directly . i 'm a big boy , it wo n't crush me . kerry : what is it you think ? what , that i 'm hiding another man ? jack : i do n't know , are you ? kerry : i am an adult , jack . if i wanted to see another man , i would see him without sneaking around . jack : then where were you yesterday ? and why did n't you want me to know ? arturo : so , i finally get home . it 's like 1 : 00 , 2 : 00 in the morning , pitch- black , and here i am thinking that i finally pulled one over on him , and then he just swooped in and put me in a headlock and made me promise to never be late again .

kerry : [ scoffs ] i happen to think everyone is entitled to privacy , for whatever reason . but you asked me a question , and i am happy to answer . i was in traffic court . jack : come again ? kerry : and not just for an unpaid parking meter . i have a glove compartment full of tickets -- wrong side of the street , no parking after 8 : 00 pm , permit- only ... i keep telling myself , `` kerry , write the damn check , `` but then ... i do n't know , i 'd discover a new compound or we have to tweak a fragrance ... jack : you were in traffic court , and you thought somehow i would think less of you . kerry : just now , you told me to be mature enough to tell the truth . well , i am mature , jack . i 've been taking care of myself for a very long time . i pride myself on my competence . my work requires intense precision . and yet , i 've got this annoying glitch , this weakness . and i admit it , i did n't want you to know . jack : [ chuckles ] i have to admit , i 'm a little relieved that you 're not perfect . kerry : [ scoffs ] jack : you could have told me . kerry : jack ... i like you . so much . you know that by now . and i think we 're doing a really good job of getting to know each other . so , please , do n't take some canceled date or miscommunication as a sign that i 'm not interested because i am . very . jack : so am i . very . kerry : good to know . now , i have a ton of work to do and a frozen yogurt that 's turning into a puddle as we speak , so ... jack : well , i 'll , uh -- i 'll let you get to that . see you soon ? kerry : i think you will . neil : so , we appreciate you being upfront about what 's going on in your head . cane : will you then help me ? will you please help me ? just -- just get lily to talk to me , please . neil : no . not gon na happen . cane : [ sighs ] neil : you have some work to do on your own . whatever demons you got to deal with , you better deal with them . devon : she ca n't help you with those , man . she 's got too much going on for herself . neil : and when lily 's ready , you 'll know . until then , you 're on your own . sink or swim , man , it 's up to you . cane : what about mattie and charlie ? i mean , they do n't know about victoria . is lily gon na tell them ? neil : i do n't know . but she 's their mother . it 's up to her . she may be locked up , but she gets to call the shots now with her kids and with her marriage . rey : thank you for coming . it means a lot . i know it 's not , uh ... i just -- i really appreciate it . sharon : you 're my friend , rey . your happiness means everything to me . rey : even though , for a second there ... sharon : for a second , you 're right , i might have pictured something other than friendship . but that was n't an option . not really . i wish you the best of everything . arturo : i 'm not doing this with you , mia . mia : why not ? we 're all family here , and i thought i was very gracious , not shoving you out the door when you tried to outshine me on my special day . arturo : you and rey are happy and in love . you just said you wanted everyone to know it . so why do you still care what i do now ? mia : because i care about you , arturo . you are part of my heart . you 're part of my family . she 's not the one you want . and you 'll try so hard , and then you 'll realize she 's not the one you love . because i know . it 's not the way i know you can love . arturo : enjoy your night , mia , because i plan to enjoy celebrating my engagement to abby . abby : hi . nick : do i like it that mom and vick kept this secret from me ? no . but i was really hoping that you and i could be honest with each other this time . phyllis : like when you did n't tell me that nikki confessed to you ? nick : i was just protecting my mom . phyllis : so was i . nick : look , i hated it that i had to lie to you . phyllis : but you did it anyway . and that 's okay for you , but i should have just fallen apart and spilled . no . but the motives are different , right ? i mean , you 're the hero , and i 'm the woman that ca n't be trusted . nick : look , mom was a wreck , vick was traumatized . with you , lying is just so easy . phyllis : wait a minute , is that the issue here ? that i gave an epic performance ? i did n't lose my mind . i did n't cry . i did n't quiver . i kept a secret that all of us agreed to keep . the problem is , i know how to keep my mouth shut . nick : you are helping me raise christian . phyllis : no , this is n't good , nick . you should stop . [ sighs ] if you think that because i am so tough that you can talk to me that way , you can't . i was the protector this time . i was the person that stood between your mother and a prison cell . and it worked . i made it happen because i am such a damn - good liar . and if i would have been better , if i would have been nicer and more honest , what , the truth would have come out . but just because i am lying as much as the rest of them , somehow , i am an evil and heartless woman . nick : no . no , no . that is not what i 'm saying . phyllis : oh , no , i am . i am helping you raise christian , but -- oh , no -- i might be tainted . and since this is a concern for you , i 'm gon na give you a heads up . you almost let another heartless woman raise your son . nick : what are you talking about ? phyllis : is n't it funny that you have n't once asked what sharon was doing while everything was going down when you knew she was there that night . why would all of the drama be escaped by her ? it wasn't . she was there . she was there when j.t . died , she was there when we digged the grave , and she 's been lying as much as the rest of us . and when she put on that little performance at your wedding , accusing you of all your lies and all of your deceit , that little saintly dishrag had a secret of her own . next week on `` the young and the restless `` ... show me some skin , fellas . let 's see those abs . arturo : mia , i 'm not gon na let you ruin this for me . mia : what am i ruining , arturo ? you got the girl . arturo : you have your relationship with rey . you guys are happy . let me have mine . nick : i want the truth . every single thing that happened that night . sharon : what are you gon na do with it ? nick : i want to hear what you have to say first , and then we will decide what we 're gon na do next . victor : someone broke in . my granddaughter 's missing , and i want you to find her a.s.a.p . | neil tells cane that lily told him whathappened with victiria and made it clear she only wants to see this time not him . cane tells devon and neil that whenever he is away from lily he is n't the man he wants to be and he asks neil to persude lily to see him so they can talk neil says no and lily will let him know when she is ready to see him . abby accepts arturo 's marriage proposal but when he wants to get married right there she tells him that she wants to wait so her family can be at the wedding . jack tells kyle he is going to break up with kerry because he ca n't trust her but kyle advises him to talk to kerry before he ends their relationship . kerry tells jack that she had to pay about one hundred tickets so she had to go to ciourt and she did n't want to tell him . kerry assuses jack that she really wants a relationship with him and that he can trust her . mia is happy with rey but she tells arturo that he only proposed to abby because he was trying to forget her because he still loves her . nick confronts phyllis about jt 's death and she tells him that she protected nikki and victoria by burying jt and keeping this secret but nick does n't believe that because she kept the fireplace poker . phyllis is angry that nick ca n't cut her some slack so she tells him sharon was also involved and sharon was keeping this secret from him on the day he and sharon almost got married . | <s>[INST] [ previously_on ] nikki : phyllis is one who 's trying to frame your father . question is -- what are we gon na do about it ? nicholas , i have some information that 's gon na throw a wrench into your investigation . jack : if you had n't already eaten , i could bring lunch to you . kerry : sorry , i do n't have time to talk right now . i 'm busy in the lab . uh , another time . call you later , okay ? arturo : i used to just live day by day , but , with you , i can see forever . will you marry me ? billy : what the hell is going on here ? cane : after , uh , billy caught us , he walked out of here and he got straight on the jabot jet , and he went to lakewood to see lily . victoria : he did n't tell her . cane : yeah , he did . neil : okay , so here 's what we 'll do . we 'll hit the road first thing and visit your mom by 2 : 00 . cane : hey , what 's going on ? hey , neil . neil : we 're planning a trip to see lily . cane : oh , that 's cool . we already have one planned . mattie : yeah , but with grandpa 's plan , we can go sooner . charlie : and the whole family can come , all four of us . cane : all right . neil : actually , i 've already checked with your dad . he ca n't make it this time . kyle : this is not the time to leave the guy hanging . abby : i just , um ... [ laughs ] are you serious ? mia : exactly what i was thinking , having arturo propose at my wedding . our wedding . [ chuckles ] arturo : i 'm sorry . father , i know that this is n't usually how this goes . there 's no rule book for these ceremonies . and love , i found that when it comes to matters of the heart , there is , uh , no usual . besides , what 's a bit of spontaneity on an already beautiful occasion ? arturo : thank you . you 're absolutely right . look at this guy . he 's a man in love . arturo : he 's a happy man in love . you know , when we were younger , we never saw a happy marriage . but i 'm looking at one now , and i want that . i never realized how much , but , um ... i guess maybe this was n't the best timing . rey : hey . you 're family . you do what you got to do . arturo : abby ... you changed me . every day is different because of you . something new that i did n't know , but i love it , and i need it . will you change my life even more by marrying me ? abby : [ giggles ] yes ! yes , yes , yes ! [ applause ] phyllis : ooh ! what are you doing ? taking out all your frustrations on the dart board ? tell me all about your stressful day . maybe in the shower ? nick : i know what you did . phyllis : and that would be ? nick : because there are just so many to choose from ? maybe there are . i 'm talking about the body that you buried . arturo : it fits . abby : you were worried ? arturo : no . abby : it 's beautiful . lola : whoa , is that thing real ? arturo : yeah . it has to be . this one 's worth it . kyle : yes , well done , man . arturo : thanks . sharon : how romantic . abby : [ giggles ] rey : well , look at you . you made the leap . so you 're ready to settle down . i never thought i 'd see it happen . arturo : [ sighs ] me either , man . turns out , i just needed to meet the right woman . additional sponsorship phyllis : so , who ratted me out ? nick : that 's your question ? phyllis : considering my name was never supposed to come into play ... nick : there are bigger things to worry about right now . phyllis : not for me . yes . i was present at j.t . 's death . i was involved with his burial . nick : you say that like it 's nothing . phyllis : it 's not nothing . it was never nothing . i did n't kill j.t . nick : i know you didn't . mom did , defending victoria . but you were there . phyllis : after all this time , nikki 's the one who caved . nick : i want to hear it from you . phyllis : what ? the details ? no , you don't . nick : you know , my mom has changed her story so many times . first , she did n't know anything . then she was just trying to save victoria . and now there are three people in the mix . phyllis : wow . nick : i want the whole story , phyllis . phyllis : nikki stopped that bastard the way any mother would . when she and victoria realized that he was dead ... they panicked . so i stepped in . thanks to me , your mother and your sister are not in prison right this very second . mattie : is it because of business meetings ? is that why you ca n't come ? charlie : yeah , maybe you could just do a conference call in the car . mattie : or borrow the h - dub jet . that 'd be okay , right ? charlie : yeah , i mean , mom would really love to see all of us together this time . neil : well , your dad was just up there , and sometimes your mom wants you all to herself . cane : um , do n't you have some physics homework you got to do ? charlie : all right . cane : do your homework . so , uh , what , all of a sudden , you 're the gatekeeper of my wife ? is that what this is ? i needed to go and see lily , and since you lied to the kids , i think you know . neil : hey . lily told me about you and victoria . and for lily 's sake , i got to put up with your garbage behavior time and time again . now , look , i backed lily when she wanted to forgive you , and i back her now when she does n't want to see you . cane : i 'm not gon na let her think i 'm giving up -- neil : shut up ! cane : okay . neil : i need to go before i do something that i 'll regret . mia : it 's a sign ! how powerful the love between rey and me is . i hope you all can feel it . it means you were meant to join us on our special day . sharon : it was a lovely ceremony . it 's clear how much thought went into it . mia : it 's true . in a lot of ways , i 've been planning this is my head a long time . lola : you did n't tell me ! arturo : i did n't tell anyone . lola : well , abby is the right one for you , arturo , or else you would n't have done any of this . kyle : yeah , abby 's awesome . but i expected `` the naked heiress `` is gon na go full - scale bridezilla . abby : oh , for sure , yeah . and i plan on making you wear a velvet purple tux to the ceremony just because i said so . lola : [ giggles ] kyle : i can pull it off . arturo : oh ! abby : sadly , i think that 's true . i 'll have to think of other ways to torture you . kyle : uh , you know your way around that . do n't give her time to plan . double wedding , right here and now . abby : oh ! mia : [ laughs ] you are funny , kyle . arturo : you up for it ? abby : definitely , yeah . uh - huh . [ giggles ] arturo : no , i mean it . i mean , you already said you 'd marry me . how about it ? right here , right now . devon : what 's going on with you ? neil : your cheating brother - in - law , that 's what 's going on with me . devon : so he confessed to you what he did with victoria ? devon : yeah , he told me . he came here looking for absolution , like i assume he just did with you . neil : no , no , no . not me . i heard it from your sister . devon : what do you mean , you heard it from lily ? he went up there and told her after i told him not to go ? he could n't just leave her in peace ? neil : whoa , whoa , wait a minute . cane did go and visit her , but he never got to see her . you know why ? billy abbott . he got there first , and he told her everything . devon : billy -- what does billy abbott have to do with any of this ? i know his connection to victoria , but that 's not his place to go and dump that on lily while she 's in prison . she must be going out of her mind right now . neil : my little girl ... had her freedom taken away , and now this . from the man she thought she could count on . arturo : how about it ? right here , right now . i do n't want to go another day without you as my wife . abby : i love you . i love you so much , and this is nothing that i expected , and i want to spend every day with you , but ... i ca n't get married without my family . arturo : no , you 're right , i 'm sorry . um , you deserve everything you want . the wedding of your dreams . abby : the wedding of our dreams . i mean , you 're finally willing to do it . we got to do it right . [ giggles ] mia : [ laughs ] well , that was a cliffhanger , huh , people ? well , uh , back to the main event . we still have a lovely reception planned for you all . devon hamilton himself wants us to have this evening perfect for us . rey : my wife is being modest . he did this for her because when you turn on the sparkle , no one can resist . mia : aww , well , i 'm a happy woman , and i just want my love to be a happy man . rey : tonight is just the beginning . again . come on . mia : [ giggles ] abby : [ gasps ] uncle jack ! jack : abby ! arturo . arturo : what 's up ? abby : i have some exciting news . actually , we have some exciting news . do you want to tell him . we 're engaged ! jack : when did this happen ? abby : just now . you 're the first to know . jack : congratulations . oh ! and i know you will do right by my niece . arturo : it 's my new mission in life . abby : we have to get back to the wedding party , but i just wanted you to know . jack : yeah , go , go , go . congratulations ! did she just say `` wedding party ? `` kyle : yeah , i know . rey and mia renewed their vows , and arturo proposed to abby . jack : when , during the `` speak now or forever hold your peace `` part ? kyle : he waited until after the vows . jack : well , unorthodox , but everyone seems happy . uh , you know what , a renewal and an engagement at the same time ? a lovely reminder that some relationships actually work out . kyle : and you 'd need a reminder because ... ? jack : i think kerry and i have hit the end of the road . kyle : wait , what happened ? jack : i 'm ready for a woman i can trust . looks like i have n't found her this time , either . phyllis : j.t . tormented your sister . he controlled her . he threatened her . he laid his hands on the mother of his children . you should have heard her that night . everything that was spilling out of her . sometimes , she would just choke back the tears . she would sound numb . so she went upstairs to rest . when i went up later , j.t . was dead . nikki and victoria were falling apart . all the thoughts were just coming so fast . j.t . was after victoria . not nikki . but nikki is the one that took him out . victoria never told anyone about the abuse . so why claim it now , after the fact ? i did n't think that those two could protect themselves , so i had to do it for them . burying the body , cover the crime , make it look like j.t . left town . it was disgusting . it was sickening . but it had to be done for nikki 's sake . and , no , i did not tell you because we promised -- we promised not to tell a soul . now , we were n't together then , but , once we were , i -- i decided the best way to stay loyal to you was to keep protecting your mother and your sister . nick : so you saved them ? phyllis : i had to . i promised . nick : phyllis , that would be a lot easier to believe if you had n't held onto the murder weapon . jack : hey , you do n't have to join me . kyle : one drink and a little information . what exactly did kerry do ? jack : i told you . she said she was stuck in the lab . the lab was closed . kyle : right . i got that much . but i just assume there 's more , since jumping straight to `` i do n't trust her `` is kind of a stretch . jack : here 's the thing . i was n't always upfront and forthright in my relationships in the past , i admit that , but that was in the past . i 'm in a different place now . i 'm not sure i have the patience to be with somebody who still needs to play games . kyle : are you sure that 's what she 's doing ? jack : this is n't the first time i felt like she was hiding something from me . kyle : like what ? jack : i do n't know ! but obviously it 's important enough for her to risk what we have . kyle : mm , maybe it 's a top - secret project at another facility . or she was taking some personal time . jack : that she has to lie about ? kyle : ask her . jack : it 's not that simple . kyle : it is . look , i know you 've been burned , but that does n't mean kerry 's been doing the same thing . at least get some answers before you decide it 's done . [ laughter ] rey : oh , good . you 're here . kyle : sorry about that . rey : i wanted everyone together because now i have a very special surprise for my gorgeous wife . phyllis : just help me understand exactly what you 're thinking here . because your mom has changed her story so many times , but yet , i 'm the one being doubted here . i saved her . i protected your sister . i honored the agreement we had , and yet , i am the one under suspicion here . nick : you lied . you told mom and vick the poker was at the bottom of the lake . phyllis : yes . yes , it was n't the complete truth . i went to the lake , but after calming everyone down , after dealing with the corpse , i knew it was on me to deal with the murder weapon . and i realized maybe , just maybe , i may need that one day to protect myself , legally . because , in this little group , i am the odd man out . no one 's gon na swoop in and save red . and it turns out , i am right because your mother just confessed homicide to you , and yet , i 'm the one being interrogated here . nick : then the poker showed up at the ranch , the one you had . phyllis : how many times have i told you ? i do n't anything about that ! the poker was in a storage unit . someone broke in , they took it , then they did what they did with it ! nick : are you hearing yourself right now ? phyllis : yes , i am hearing myself , and i 'm hearing you , too , and i 'm hearing a lot of accusation towards me , which i do n't deserve . nick : you claimed my dad was guilty when you knew , more than anyone , that he was n't ! we talked about this . i heard you say you wanted dad to rot in jail . phyllis , if you can mastermind this cover - up , you sure as hell can frame him for murder . devon : so now cane feels entitled to go up with you and the kids to visit lily ? that 's not gon na happen . i 'll clear my schedule , though , so i can go with you guys . neil : no , no , no . do n't worry about that . i think it 's best if i just take the kids myself , you know ? lily needs to spend some time with them alone , and when she 's ready for more , then she 'll let us know . devon : sure . neil : hey . devon : hmm ? neil : lily 's not my only priority . i mean , how are things going with you ? devon : i actually got to finally have a sit - down with that songwriter . neil : oh , yeah ! the reclusive genius . devon : right . neil : how 'd you swing that ? devon : ana set it up . neil : really ? devon : yeah . neil : so what do you think ? someone we can work with ? devon : absolutely . neil : your sister has an eye for new talent . devon : yeah , she sure does , and it 's probably because she 's so damn talented herself . earlier today , i caught her singing at the piano . neil : ahh ! lucky man . she 's been hiding a light under that bushel lately , huh ? devon : it got a little dusty in here for me , too . neil : what ? really ? cried some tears ? devon : yeah , it just hit me out of nowhere . neil : hey . there 's no shame in emotion . you know ? all that noise about men being stoic and shut down ... do n't trip on that , do n't fall for it . devon : mm . neil : you know , you think you 're riding it out , but i 'm telling you , man , those tears do n't just dry up and go away . those feelings ... they 'll stay right there . that knot you feel at night when you 're trying to sleep ... or the dust when you hear a song . devon : i know , i ca n't keep dumping all my issues on you guys , though . neil : no , no , come on . you 're not dumping . i love you to tears , man . we all love you . if it 's not us , then talk to your therapist . devon : i know . i 've been doing that , but it 's just ... neil : it 's just a process . i know . so if listening to ana 's music gives you that kind of release , then , my brother , keep listening . [ doorbell rings ] [ knocks on door ] cane : hey . i 'm not gon na let you shut me out of lily 's life . news break phyllis : so , is this all nikki ? did she decide i was the one who was dropping all the weapons around the ranch to frame victor ? nick : she mentioned her theory . phyllis : big shock there . nick : it 's not the first time it occurred to me when i put together the list of all my father 's enemies . phyllis : so i was on that list ? i was an enemy ? i was n't a victim ? not someone who he basically had violated ? that 's fine . i was on the enemy list . that 's fine . you can go ahead and let me in with the other thousand of victor - haters , but somehow , i am the lead suspect here . nick : you are the only one on the list who knew what happened to j.t . phyllis : that 's fair enough . but consider this -- there was never a gun involved at all with j.t . 's murder . the kind that was left at the stables for the cops to find . why would i try to trick the cops with the wrong murder weapon ? nick : to cover up your own guilt ? if all the attention is on my dad , then they 're not looking at you or mom or vick . phyllis : i never pretended to give a damn about your father , and i wish he 'd served every day of original sentence for what he did to me . but this is a fact , nick . i did not frame your father . but now that it happened , why are we not letting him take the heat ? he will never be convicted . letting everyone think he is guilty is the only way to keep nikki safe . nick : okay , so you are just worried about my mom . phyllis : i am worried about our family . summer , faith , christian should not see their grandmother rot in prison . come on , you know that victor loves playing the noble protector . let him take the fall . nick : so if he 's not acquitted , then `` oh , well . `` phyllis : you know what , i told you -- i did not frame him . and i need you to trust me on this . but you don't . i mean , you really do not . nick : there 's just been too many lies , phyllis , and not just to me , but to mom and victoria . phyllis : what are you talking about ? nikki and victoria have also lied . they 've lied to you , they lied to the cops , they lied to every single person that i 've lied to , and yet , i 'm the villain . how about you tell me why you cut them the slack that you refuse to cut me ? cane : you know , i racked my brain to try and understand how i could have hurt lily like this again . you know , i want to -- i want to do what is right , you know ? and ... you know , every night , i tell sam how much she misses him and how much she loves him and just how lucky he is to have her in his life . and , you know , with the twins , i mean , they 're coping , but things come up , and when they do , we deal with is as a family because , you know , like , i say to myself in times like these , `` what would lily do ? `` you know ? because she 's my guidepost . but when she 's not with me , i just ... it 's like i make these mistakes , you know , like with victoria , and i self - sabotage , you know ? i prove to myself that i do n't deserve her , and i don't . because she 's in there , and i 'm out here , and i -- i cracked . because when she 's not with me , i 'm not the man that i want to be . kerry : well , this is a new side of you . jack : what , expecting the courtesy of an honest explanation ? kerry : setting a trap for me to walk into . jack : what is going on here ? why are n't you giving me a straight answer ? if you do n't want to see me , for whatever reason , just be mature enough to tell me directly . i 'm a big boy , it wo n't crush me . kerry : what is it you think ? what , that i 'm hiding another man ? jack : i do n't know , are you ? kerry : i am an adult , jack . if i wanted to see another man , i would see him without sneaking around . jack : then where were you yesterday ? and why did n't you want me to know ? arturo : so , i finally get home . it 's like 1 : 00 , 2 : 00 in the morning , pitch- black , and here i am thinking that i finally pulled one over on him , and then he just swooped in and put me in a headlock and made me promise to never be late again . [ laughter ] rey : and you were always late . arturo : this is true . uh , mia , what can i say that rey already has n't ? you two truly have something special . i mean , look how it made me act , busting in your renewal , making me want that same forever for myself . thank you , for always setting the example for me , brother . even when i was too dumb to get it . i 'm smarter now , and you were right all along . i just hope in a not - too - distant future , you 're the one on the hot seat trying to come up with a toast when you 're the best man at my wedding . [ laughter ] cheers to rey and mia . cheers . cheers ! cheers . to rey and mia . rey : salud . arturo : salud . mia : mm . lola : now it 's arturo 's turn . he was so sure it was never going to happen . i mean , i am serious . he was about constructions and trucks and about being single . kyle : love takes time . like anything good , it 's worth the wait . lola : you 're very right , and when i am done waiting personally , i will let you know . mia : that was so sweet , the way you could n't hold back during my ceremony . arturo : i 'm sorry , mia . i did n't mean to overstep . mia : oh , no , no . the timing was perfect . i mean , of course you had to do it right when rey and i were pledging our eternal love for each other . abby may think it 's all about her , but you and i both know better . jack : we need privacy for this , huh ? kerry : [ scoffs ] i happen to think everyone is entitled to privacy , for whatever reason . but you asked me a question , and i am happy to answer . i was in traffic court . jack : come again ? kerry : and not just for an unpaid parking meter . i have a glove compartment full of tickets -- wrong side of the street , no parking after 8 : 00 pm , permit- only ... i keep telling myself , `` kerry , write the damn check , `` but then ... i do n't know , i 'd discover a new compound or we have to tweak a fragrance ... jack : you were in traffic court , and you thought somehow i would think less of you . kerry : just now , you told me to be mature enough to tell the truth . well , i am mature , jack . i 've been taking care of myself for a very long time . i pride myself on my competence . my work requires intense precision . and yet , i 've got this annoying glitch , this weakness . and i admit it , i did n't want you to know . jack : [ chuckles ] i have to admit , i 'm a little relieved that you 're not perfect . kerry : [ scoffs ] jack : you could have told me . kerry : jack ... i like you . so much . you know that by now . and i think we 're doing a really good job of getting to know each other . so , please , do n't take some canceled date or miscommunication as a sign that i 'm not interested because i am . very . jack : so am i . very . kerry : good to know . now , i have a ton of work to do and a frozen yogurt that 's turning into a puddle as we speak , so ... jack : well , i 'll , uh -- i 'll let you get to that . see you soon ? kerry : i think you will . neil : so , we appreciate you being upfront about what 's going on in your head . cane : will you then help me ? will you please help me ? just -- just get lily to talk to me , please . neil : no . not gon na happen . cane : [ sighs ] neil : you have some work to do on your own . whatever demons you got to deal with , you better deal with them . devon : she ca n't help you with those , man . she 's got too much going on for herself . neil : and when lily 's ready , you 'll know . until then , you 're on your own . sink or swim , man , it 's up to you . cane : what about mattie and charlie ? i mean , they do n't know about victoria . is lily gon na tell them ? neil : i do n't know . but she 's their mother . it 's up to her . she may be locked up , but she gets to call the shots now with her kids and with her marriage . rey : thank you for coming . it means a lot . i know it 's not , uh ... i just -- i really appreciate it . sharon : you 're my friend , rey . your happiness means everything to me . rey : even though , for a second there ... sharon : for a second , you 're right , i might have pictured something other than friendship . but that was n't an option . not really . i wish you the best of everything . arturo : i 'm not doing this with you , mia . mia : why not ? we 're all family here , and i thought i was very gracious , not shoving you out the door when you tried to outshine me on my special day . arturo : you and rey are happy and in love . you just said you wanted everyone to know it . so why do you still care what i do now ? mia : because i care about you , arturo . you are part of my heart . you 're part of my family . she 's not the one you want . and you 'll try so hard , and then you 'll realize she 's not the one you love . because i know . it 's not the way i know you can love . arturo : enjoy your night , mia , because i plan to enjoy celebrating my engagement to abby . abby : hi . nick : do i like it that mom and vick kept this secret from me ? no . but i was really hoping that you and i could be honest with each other this time . phyllis : like when you did n't tell me that nikki confessed to you ? nick : i was just protecting my mom . phyllis : so was i . nick : look , i hated it that i had to lie to you . phyllis : but you did it anyway . and that 's okay for you , but i should have just fallen apart and spilled . no . but the motives are different , right ? i mean , you 're the hero , and i 'm the woman that ca n't be trusted . nick : look , mom was a wreck , vick was traumatized . with you , lying is just so easy . phyllis : wait a minute , is that the issue here ? that i gave an epic performance ? i did n't lose my mind . i did n't cry . i did n't quiver . i kept a secret that all of us agreed to keep . the problem is , i know how to keep my mouth shut . nick : you are helping me raise christian . phyllis : no , this is n't good , nick . you should stop . [ sighs ] if you think that because i am so tough that you can talk to me that way , you can't . i was the protector this time . i was the person that stood between your mother and a prison cell . and it worked . i made it happen because i am such a damn - good liar . and if i would have been better , if i would have been nicer and more honest , what , the truth would have come out . but just because i am lying as much as the rest of them , somehow , i am an evil and heartless woman . nick : no . no , no . that is not what i 'm saying . phyllis : oh , no , i am . i am helping you raise christian , but -- oh , no -- i might be tainted . and since this is a concern for you , i 'm gon na give you a heads up . you almost let another heartless woman raise your son . nick : what are you talking about ? phyllis : is n't it funny that you have n't once asked what sharon was doing while everything was going down when you knew she was there that night . why would all of the drama be escaped by her ? it wasn't . she was there . she was there when j.t . died , she was there when we digged the grave , and she 's been lying as much as the rest of us . and when she put on that little performance at your wedding , accusing you of all your lies and all of your deceit , that little saintly dishrag had a secret of her own . next week on `` the young and the restless `` ... show me some skin , fellas . let 's see those abs . arturo : mia , i 'm not gon na let you ruin this for me . mia : what am i ruining , arturo ? you got the girl . arturo : you have your relationship with rey . you guys are happy . let me have mine . nick : i want the truth . every single thing that happened that night . sharon : what are you gon na do with it ? nick : i want to hear what you have to say first , and then we will decide what we 're gon na do next . victor : someone broke in . my granddaughter 's missing , and i want you to find her a.s.a.p .Summarize.[/INST]neil tells cane that lily told him whathappened with victiria and made it clear she only wants to see this time not him . cane tells devon and neil that whenever he is away from lily he is n't the man he wants to be and he asks neil to persude lily to see him so they can talk neil says no and lily will let him know when she is ready to see him . abby accepts arturo 's marriage proposal but when he wants to get married right there she tells him that she wants to wait so her family can be at the wedding . jack tells kyle he is going to break up with kerry because he ca n't trust her but kyle advises him to talk to kerry before he ends their relationship . kerry tells jack that she had to pay about one hundred tickets so she had to go to ciourt and she did n't want to tell him . kerry assuses jack that she really wants a relationship with him and that he can trust her . mia is happy with rey but she tells arturo that he only proposed to abby because he was trying to forget her because he still loves her . nick confronts phyllis about jt 's death and she tells him that she protected nikki and victoria by burying jt and keeping this secret but nick does n't believe that because she kept the fireplace poker . phyllis is angry that nick ca n't cut her some slack so she tells him sharon was also involved and sharon was keeping this secret from him on the day he and sharon almost got married .</s> | 16,248 |

[ scene_break ] carly : oh , gosh ! sorry . i 'm glad i ran into you , because i think we need to talk . todd : yeah , we should talk . let 's talk about how your son is a key witness against my daughter . starr : michael ? what are you doing here ? [ scene_break ] kate : what did connie tell you about the gun ? was it hers ? sonny : just take it easy . kate : no , you have to tell me , sonny , please ! was connie the one who tried to kill anthony zacchara ? [ scene_break ] [ both grunting ] [ gunshot ] johnny : i bet you were n't expecting that , were you ? anthony : oh , god . [ scene_break ] kate : you have to tell me what happened . what did connie say ? sonny : it 's you , right , kate ? kate : it 's me . it 's me . i promise . now please tell me everything she said . sonny : maybe we should -- maybe we should -- wait till the psychiatrist comes , 'cause i do n't want -- kate : no ! you have to tell me ! right now . what happened ? sonny : okay , i was -- i was in -- in the other room with alexis , okay ? and i saw you through the two - way mirror . and i thought that you -- i thought you could see me , right ? that you were , you know , talking to me ? but you were n't . kate : well , sometimes i can see connie in the reflection instead of myself . it 's weird , i know . it 's -- i can see two of me . sonny : you collapsed because you were in so much pain . and i -- i ran in here . it was n't you . kate : it was connie . sonny : i be -- i believe you , you know ? that 's -- kate : you do ? sonny : i did n't -- [ stammering ] i believe you , okay ? i 'm sorry , but i did n't -- you did n't sleep with johnny . i know that . okay ? it was n't you . kate : [ crying ] [ scene_break ] anthony : i 'm going to need help , kid . call somebody fast . johnny : what , bring the police here ? anthony : get steve webber . he patched me up fine last time . and you got him in your pocket . johnny : not anymore . ' sides , even if he was , why would i help you ? you tried to kill me . and now i get to return the favor . [ scene_break ] michael : i was meeting with the a.d.a . to go over my statement before your trial . i heard you did n't make bail . starr : no , they think i 'm a flight risk . my dad has the resources to take me out of the country . michael : well , if he did , you would n't be around to try and kill my father again . anyway , i 'm , uh -- i 'm sorry they 're keeping you here . starr : they let us out sometimes -- to take showers and stuff -- but it 's not exactly freedom . i 'll never know what that 's like again , not after you testify against me . [ scene_break ] carly : i had no idea that michael was the one who witnessed your daugh -- todd : your son has no compassion . carly : michael 's a great kid . or man , i should say . todd : yeah , a great man who 's gon na watch starr fry . carly : he 's not acting out of malice . todd : it does n't matter wh -- my little girl is stuck behind bars . carly : and michael 's trying to protect his father . todd : from who ? i look at my little girl , all i see is me pushing her on the swings . how is she in any way a threat to a mob kingpin ? carly : she had her finger on the trigger , and she was ready to shoot sonny , okay ? michael does n't want that to happen , so he 's intent on testifying . todd : no way . your son is not going to testify against my daughter . [ scene_break ] mcbain : what are we talking about this time ? bribery ? blackmail ? extortion ? take your pick ? téa : [ scoffs ] let 's just say that , if what todd has in mind actually works , the less you know about it , the better . mcbain : all right . look , do n't let him -- do n't let him drag you into anything you 're going to regret . téa : [ scoffs ] after what todd took from me ? i 'll never trust him again . which is why i am still working on formulating a defense for starr . [ grunts ] mcbain : make yourself comfortable . téa : oh , i will . mcbain : for me , the main witness is the kid , right ? téa : yeah . michael corinthos iii . mcbain : heard he bludgeoned his stepmother to death . did a couple months for manslaughter . the whole family tried to cover up . now , look -- if you ca n't find something in there that puts a taint on his testimony , you should give back that online degree you got . téa : [ laughs ] very funny . i 've already looked into this , all right ? i 'm way ahead of you , but , uh -- i ca n't use any of it . mcbain : nothing useful ? téa : no . estrella wo n't let me use any of it . [ groans ] ooh . he , um -- you know , he 's willing to testify against her , but she still wants to protect him when she just tells me that she 's not thinking clearly . mcbain : unless you can -- you can argue , what -- emotional duress ? téa : yeah . in starr 's case it 's actually true , as opposed to her father . oh , god . [ grunts ] mcbain : you okay ? téa : yeah , i 'm okay . this is just the baby 's way of telling me the clock is ticking . i have to get starr acquitted before this one makes its way into the world . mcbain : when 's the big day ? téa : soon . your friend sam and i , looks like we 're in a race for the finish line . mcbain : i guess you are . téa : so , what 's the deal with you two , anyway ? huh ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i just got some great news about dr. keenan . patrick did his surgery , and he 's going to be okay . sam : and you just happened to be here to celebrate the big news together . jason : no , i had to follow up with dr. morucci . sam : how 'd it go ? jason : all tests came back great . no side effects , no symptoms . sam : i 'm glad . molly : that 's really great . sam : yeah . um -- i 'm actually here for my childbirth class , and molly is going to be my coach . molly : unless you want to be there for sam . [ scene_break ] mcbain : no deal . there 's no deal between me and sam . téa : sure . so , walking in and finding a pregnant lady here is just par for the course . mcbain : she 's staying down the hall . téa : and she needed to borrow a cup of sugar . mcbain : something like that . we 'd met before . téa : you told her about your luxury accommodations , and she just had to see for herself , right ? mcbain : we both ended up here by accident . téa : right . so you 're just neighbors ? mcbain : she , uh -- we talked . téa : mm - hmm . mcbain : she 's going through some things . téa : that seemed pretty obvious . of course , you 're going to be the one to fix everything , right ? [ scene_break ] molly : you should be the one at the childbirth class , jason . i 'm only filling in for my mom , anyway . come on . you 're sam 's husband , and -- sam : molly , molly , come on . molly : no ! sam , this is something you guys should be experiencing together as parents . elizabeth : that 's really for sam and jason to decide . sam : come on . we should get going . molly : no ! i mean it , jason . you should be there with sam . you belong together . you can still love this baby , even if it is n't yours . [ scene_break ] patrick : oh , aunt elizabeth was just -- she 's just a friend . and she 's not going to be your new mommy . she was just -- taking care of you when i could n't be with you . emma : were you sick ? patrick : yeah . in a way , i was , but -- but i 'm all -- i 'm all better now . i 'm going to be fine . [ scene_break ] starr : just take me back . michael : starr , i did everything i could to help you . okay ? but you brought this on yourself . starr : i did n't know you could be so cold , michael . michael : can you give us a minute , please ? look , i did n't want this for you , starr . i was hoping you 'd be able to find a way through your grief and begin to heal , but -- starr : but i lied , and you 're pissed , and you want to punish me . michael : no , i 've been lied to before . it hurts . okay ? but i would never try and send somebody to prison for that . starr : that 's what you 're doing to me now . michael : no , you tried to kill my father . you know , and you probably would have pulled it off if i did n't show up when i did . starr : you did show up ! and you told me all of the reasons why i should n't pull the trigger . you explained how you killed your stepmother and how you saw her lying there , so still . i realized what it would be like to kill your dad . i did n't pull the trigger . michael : my dad 's going to testify . do you want me to say he 's lying ? starr : no . michael : you want me to say i did n't see what i actually saw ? i ca n't perjure myself on the stand . i wo n't , no matter how much your father wants me to . starr : my father ? what does he have to do with any of this ? [ scene_break ] carly : michael 's extremely loyal to his family , and he wo n't back down . todd : we 'll see about that . carly : i understand you 're hurting to watch starr go through this . todd : well , then you can understand why i need -- carly : as much as you love your daughter , that 's at least how much i love my son . todd : yeah , i get that . carly : and i 've seen you , and i 've heard from all your ex - wives -- you 're the man that likes to take matters into his own hands . todd : i 'm just somebody that ca n't stay passive when somebody 's trying to hurt my kid . carly : neither can i , so i 'm warning you right now -- you try to do anything to my son , you 're going to have to go through me first . [ scene_break ] anthony : if the cops find me dead in your penthouse , they 'll bring you in for murder . johnny : do n't worry . there 's not going to be anything they can trace back to me . i 'm going to dispose of you like the piece of garbage you are . anthony : i wo n't tell anybody you shot out my tires and killed those kids . i swear to god . johnny : yeah , you 're not going to be alive to tell anybody . besides , i already got somebody taking the rap for that -- your old friend connie . [ scene_break ] sonny : after seeing this connie , after hearing the things she was saying , i know , as a fact , she 's not you . kate : she 's a part of me , sonny . sonny : but nothing that , you know , you 're responsible for , nothing that you can control . she 's a different person , and it scared me . and i 'm sorry , like i said before , that i did n't unders -- i did n't understand sooner . kate : how are you supposed to understand , sonny ? sonny : because i should have known something , you know ? realized that you could have been sick . kate : are you apologizing to me ? after everything i did to you ? sonny : it 's not -- it 's not you . it 's not kate . it 's not the person i love . you would never hurt me like that . kate : sonny , she 's capable of hurting you . she 's capable of hurting many people . sonny : listen to me , okay ? you can beat this , all right ? we 'll get some help . we 'll do whatever we got to do to get you fixed , okay ? kate : i have to know what connie did first . you have to tell me . was the gun mine ? sonny : it was connie 's . kate : [ cries ] [ scene_break ] mcbain : i 'm not trying to fix anything with sam . téa : oh , please . try telling that to someone who does n't know you the way i know you . you have a compulsion to rescue damsels in distress . mcbain : no ! do n't you do that ! téa : blair , evangeline , even me every once in a while . mcbain : you ? you 're gon na admit that , huh ? i thought you made a religion out of your independence . téa : [ sighs ] is n't that how things started between you and natalie ? she was in trouble , you were there for her , and now you have a child together . mcbain : things were different between me and natalie . téa : how does sam fit in ? mcbain : she wanted to talk , and i listened . i -- i 'm not rescuing her . i mean , there was this one bad cop that had a gun to her , but that was one time ! téa : oh ! i love it when you make my point for me . mcbain : no . no points for you . no points ! all right ? look , it was a one - time incident , not to be repeated . téa : mm - hmm . mcbain : i was just trying to help . but to be honest , i -- i think i 'm making things worse for her . [ scene_break ] sam : can i talk to you in private for a second ? i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry about molly . jason : yeah , i guess it 's become public knowledge . sam : she 's my sister , jason . she was wondering why we were separated , and she just assumed that you had abandoned me , so -- jason : what did you tell her ? sam : i told her the truth . i -- i told her that we -- were separated because -- you were n't sure if you could accept the baby . jason : it 's good that you 're turning to your family . sam : everyone 's going to have to find out at some point . your family , too . jason : you want to bring the quartermaines into this ? sam : this baby is still going to be a part of them , jason . your family 's going to wonder why i 'm raising it alone . jason : but you do n't have to . [ scene_break ] anthony : what the hell are you talking about ? why would connie take the rap for something you did ? johnny : because i had a little chance to chat with her at the police station . she 's being held there on assault charges for assaulting her shrink , dr. keenan . and as luck would have it -- i got her alone for a few seconds to chat . kate : [ sniffles ] what are you doing in here ? how did you get in here ? johnny : let 's just say i got a couple friends in the department . kate : oh , you called in a favor to visit ? i ca n't stand the sight of you . johnny : i ca n't blame you . kate : then get out of here ! johnny : thought you should know that i just talked to sonny at kelly 's . kate : oh , yeah ? well , what 'd you say to him , johnny ? have n't you done enough ? your revenge is complete . what else do you want ? johnny : i did my best to convince him that connie is real and that you did n't betray him . kate : why would you do that ? johnny : carly . i want a second chance with her . i -- i want to make things right for everybody involved . kate : what did he say ? did he believe you ? johnny : well , he considered it for a while , but -- you know how prideful the guy is . and , look -- i think , despite everything that 's happened , i do honestly believe he still loves you . now , i may not have a second chance with carly , but i do think it is possible for sonny to forgive you . and that 's all i came to say , kate . connie : wait . johnny : that 's all i got for you , kate . connie : kate ? do n't you recognize me -- your old bed buddy , johnny ? come on , it 's connie ! johnny : there she was , in my face , as always -- connie -- just like she 'd always been . [ scene_break ] todd : relax , mama bear . nobody 's trying to hurt your son . i have a plan -- i have a way to help starr . carly : good . 'cause i 'd hate for things to end up badly between the two of us . todd : did you just threaten me ? carly : no , i just like to tell it like it is . i 'm not someone you should mess with , either . todd : that 's hot . go ahead -- tell me more . carly : [ laughs ] i 'm sure there are plenty of people in this town that would be more than happy to tell you all about my sense . todd : i do n't think you 're capable of hurting a soul . carly : well , you would be wrong . todd : let me rephrase that . i do n't think that you would ever deliberately go out and hurt somebody . that does n't mean that there would n't be collateral damage if you had another goal or a higher purpose . carly : is that what you tell yourself when you do bad things ? todd : [ laughs ] yeah , usually . yeah . [ chuckles ] it is . i mean , not in this last instance , killing victor . i mean , pbht ! what 's the big deal , right ? carly : i 'm just stunned by your lack of remorse . todd : that bastard stole my life . for eight years , he hurt my children , he hurt my wives . i had a good reason to go after victor . that 's what i mean . i do n't -- i do n't think that you would ever go after somebody unless they gave you a good reason . carly : yeah , it 's mainly when i 'm protecting someone i love , and my kids are at the top of that list . todd : see , i respect that . carly : great . so you stay away from michael , and you and i wo n't have a problem . todd : i -- i do n't know . i mean , everybody i 've ever met , at some point , sooner or later , i wind up having a problem with them . carly : [ laughs ] me too . okay . tell me about this plan you have to help starr . todd : oh , i 'm gon na get starr out from under these charges any minute now . carly : how ? did téa come up with something ? todd : no , no , my ex - wife was no help at all . no , i got all the help i need from your ex - husband 's girlfriend . [ scene_break ] johnny : you know , at first , i was n't thrilled to see connie , but it turns out -- i had to hear what she had to say . connie : i got to get out of here . johnny : no , no , i do n't see that happening . connie : why ? johnny : 'cause from what i understand , you 've done a lot of damage . dr. keenan 's in i.c.u . connie : what was i supposed to do ? he was going to have us committed to shadybrook . johnny : yeah , instead , you 're being held here on assault charges . connie : well , i would have been on my way on the airplane if jason had n't grabbed me . johnny : oh , i 'm really sorry that did n't work out for you . connie : look -- can you help me ? can you get me out ? johnny : i do n't see how that 's going to work . connie : come on , j . come on . smart guy like you ? you can think of something . come on , they 're going to have someone come in here and hypnotize me again . johnny : yeah , my advice to you -- cooperate . connie : [ scoffs ] johnny : you and kate could benefit from some therapy . connie : yeah , well , you know what ? she 's whining and moaning that i shot out anthony 's tires , which i most definitely did not do . johnny : maybe you should tell them you did . the idea came to me right away . best one i ever had . [ scene_break ] kate : the gun was mine ? the gun was connie 's ? sonny : kate . you got to be strong here , kate . i got -- i got connie to tell me everything . the night that you walked out on me , and i got shot , she knew you would take me back . kate : she -- she put me in that wedding dress to remind me of the danger . sonny : and she used my vendetta against anthony to set me up . kate : because she knew you 'd go after him . sonny : and she went after him when he was going to the airport . kate : she shot at him . i shot at him . i ca n't -- believe i really did that . sonny : i 'm having a hard time believing it , too . [ scene_break ] johnny : you know , at first , connie was n't really on board with the plan . took a little convincing . connie : what are you talking about ? i did n't take the shot at anthony . why would i say that i did that ? johnny : because sonny is on the fence about kate right now , right ? connie : yeah . johnny : it 's only a matter of time before he forgives her . and then kate is going to blame the whole assault on dr. keenan on you , and kate is going to grow stronger and stronger with sonny 's love and support . connie : yeah , 'cause he 's a freakin ' idiot , and she ca n't get out of her own way . johnny : kate 's going to be cured , right ? and she and sonny , they 're going to live happily ever after , and you ? you 're going to be gone . connie : whoa , i ai n't going nowhere . no one 's getting rid of me that easily . what ? johnny : your plan this entire time was to get kate out of sonny 's life , right ? connie : yeah , okay . so you tell me to confess to something that i did n't do ? johnny : no , listen -- sleeping with me was n't enough of a betrayal . but if sonny thinks that you framed him for murder , that you shot out anthony 's tires , caused that accident , and then you planted the gun , he 's going to be done with kate forever , and you -- you 're going to be free . connie : no . no , because even if alexis can plead that case for insanity , i 'm going to be stuck in shadybrook . johnny : so you stay there for a little while . it 's not prison . you pretend to be cured and you get out . and then you go start a life of your own somewhere . connie : without sonny . johnny : you asked for my help . here it is . huh ? connie : huh ? that could work . johnny : it could . so , all that 's left now is for connie to take my advice . and i got a pretty good feeling she will . [ scene_break ] kate : connie confessed . she tried to destroy you . she shot at anthony 's car . and he slid into oncoming traffic . he forced another car through the guardrail . that little girl and her father ! i killed them . it 's my fault . it 's my fault . [ scene_break ] mcbain : and jason morgan -- that 's the hubby -- he 's sonny corinthos ' business associate , which i guess is a nice way of saying he 's the muscle . i 've also been told he 's lethal , but -- like a lot of people in this town , never convicted of anything . téa : huh ! are you sure it 's a good idea to be hanging out with this lethal guy 's pregnant wife ? mcbain : i do n't really care about him , but i think that he thinks that , um -- my friendship with sam has caused some of his marital problems . téa : well , it 's not your fault he 's jealous , but if his wife insists on stopping by your hotel room all the time , it 's understandable he might feel that way . mcbain : no , it 's complicated . this started long before i came to town . téa : well , judging from the way she reacted when i , uh , congratulated her and her husband on the pregnancy , i 'm guessing the problems have something to do with the kid ? mcbain : like i said , complicated . let 's just leave it at that . [ scene_break ] sam : are you saying that you want to raise this baby together ? jason : sam , i want to . and i 'm -- i 'm sorry , but -- living with franco 's baby is just -- it 's just still too hard for me to accept . sam : and there 's no chance you 're going to change your mind ? jason : i do n't -- i do n't -- i do n't know . i mean , you moved out so fast that we did n't get a chance to talk about anything , about any alternatives . sam : alternatives ? jason : yeah , a way that we could -- we could still be together . sam : are you saying you want to put this baby up for adoption ? jason : i -- i do n't know . i 'm just saying that there 's people out there who would love the baby , who would n't judge the baby , and that 's what this baby deserves . sam : i -- i did , jason . i thought about it for a second . i really did . i thought maybe i could put my own issues with my adoption aside for a second . i thought about being able to give this baby to a family that would be loving and it would be a good solution for everyone . jason : we can still have kids . you know , when you 're ready . sam : when i saw that sonogram , jason -- and i felt my baby move -- and i realized that this baby is a part of me , and when ronnie jammed that gun in my side , it became real . i love this baby . i want this baby . and i can handle it , even if you ca n't . molly : hey . class starts any second . um -- but i 'm okay with leaving if you want to work with sam . sam : no , no , no . it 's just you and me , sis . come on . [ scene_break ] patrick : you know , i -- had a little bit of a hard time trying to figure out what to do without mommy . so i needed a little bit of help from aunt elizabeth , and there 's going to be times that aunt elizabeth is -- is still going to have to watch you or stefani or uncle matt . but i 'm going to be spending a lot more time with you . does that sound good ? emma : yes . patrick : yeah ? and i 'm going to be okay . so , you -- you do n't have to worry about me , okay ? emma : because you took your medicine ? patrick : baby , you 're the only medicine i need . [ scene_break ] anthony : unh ! you surprised me , johnny . i did n't think you had it in you to be so cold and calculated . johnny : oh , come on . it runs in the family . you 're the one who convinced me to use connie in the first place , right ? anthony : agreeing to a little bounce on the bed is one thing , but if kate does what you suggested , she could end up in a looney bin for the rest of her life . johnny : as long as she 's out of my way . [ scene_break ] starr : you saw my dad ? michael : yeah , i ran into him at the metro court . he knows i 'm supposed to testify against you . starr : look , he 's worried about me . whatever he said , he 's just -- michael : he wants me to withdraw my statement . i told him i could n't . starr : how did he react ? michael : he was n't happy . starr : did he threaten you ? michael : well , i -- i told him i was going to do what i have to do . he said he was , too , and he left . starr : i told him to stay out of this . staying out of things is not exactly my dad 's thing . [ scene_break ] todd : if sonny can convince michael not to testify against my daughter , then i wo n't bother going to the cops and explaining to them that it was kate or connie or whatever the hell her name is that shot out anthony zacchara 's tires and killed two innocent people in the process . carly : you sure about this ? todd : yeah . everybody wins . sonny gets to keep his girlfriend out of jail , and starr gets to stay out of prison , too . carly : but sonny 's furious with kate for sleeping with johnny . i do n't know why he 'd care at this point . todd : oh , stop . he 's just a big greek teddy bear . he still loves kate . he 'll forgive her . he 'll do anything to protect her . carly : your granddaughter and her father were killed in that accident . you do n't want to see kate brought to justice ? todd : hope and cole are gone . nothing i do is ever going to bring them back . but i can do everything in my power to help starr . carly : i understand that . todd : and everything is going to go just fine , provided that sonny still wants to help kate . [ scene_break ] sonny : come on , come on . come here . hey , listen to me , okay ? kate : [ crying ] sonny : you just got to relax . we 're going to figure out a way to get through this , okay ? kate : how ? how , sonny ? how are we going to get through this ? what have i done ? sonny : what are we going to do about this ? [ scene_break ] johnny : second i blew out your tires , i peeled off . i did n't know there was another car involved . anthony : you did n't know -- or you did n't want to know ? johnny : i did n't know what i had done until i 'd seen the paper . oh , no . oh , god , no . not a little child . anthony : that little girl and her father , their deaths are on your head . johnny : you think i do n't know that ? ! it 's with me every moment of every day ! everywhere i go , i dream about it ! every time i go to the park -- and i see kids playing -- i see a little girl with her father -- stops my heart . i feel sick . i ca n't bring them back . but i can make amends . and i owe that girl , starr . [ scene_break ] todd : i made a lot of mistakes as a parent . but going after sonny in the courtroom , even though i was convinced that he deserved to die at the time , i gave starr the idea that she should finish what i started . so , this whole mess , this is on me . carly : i understand your need to make this right for her . and your plan just may work if sonny can get past walking in on his girlfriend in bed with another man . what ? todd : think you might ever forgive johnny ? carly : a friend of mine just reminded me that i 'd made my own share of relationship mistakes -- ones that seemed unforgivable at the time . i do n't know . i do n't know . i got to get back to the hotel , so -- todd : you do ? yeah , great . i 'll walk you there . carly : you were going in there . todd : yeah , i was . i was going to get a burger , but i can get room service . i 'm like this with the owner of the hotel . carly : can i share a secret with you ? todd : yeah . carly : the burgers here are way better . todd : okay . carly : okay ? todd : great . thanks for the tip . carly : see you later . todd : carly , um -- carly : hmm ? todd : i 'm glad to hear that -- you would be willing to forgive johnny . i 've done a lot of unforgivable things , and -- hearing that gives a guy like me some hope , too . [ scene_break ] starr : i have a family . not just parents . i have a sister and two brothers and aunts and cousins . i realize now that they 're a part of my life -- such an important part of my life -- and i want that life back . michael : starr , i wish i could help , but it 's out of my hands . starr : there 's so much for me to do -- so much for me to live for -- to fight for . i mean , there 's my music , for one . i can still find a way to honor cole and hope . if i have the chance . michael : maybe you -- well , maybe they 'll go easy on you .

[ chuckles ] it is . i mean , not in this last instance , killing victor . i mean , pbht ! what 's the big deal , right ? carly : i 'm just stunned by your lack of remorse . todd : that bastard stole my life . for eight years , he hurt my children , he hurt my wives . i had a good reason to go after victor . that 's what i mean . i do n't -- i do n't think that you would ever go after somebody unless they gave you a good reason . carly : yeah , it 's mainly when i 'm protecting someone i love , and my kids are at the top of that list . todd : see , i respect that . carly : great . so you stay away from michael , and you and i wo n't have a problem . todd : i -- i do n't know . i mean , everybody i 've ever met , at some point , sooner or later , i wind up having a problem with them . carly : [ laughs ] me too . okay . tell me about this plan you have to help starr . todd : oh , i 'm gon na get starr out from under these charges any minute now . carly : how ? did téa come up with something ? todd : no , no , my ex - wife was no help at all . no , i got all the help i need from your ex - husband 's girlfriend . [ scene_break ] johnny : you know , at first , i was n't thrilled to see connie , but it turns out -- i had to hear what she had to say . connie : i got to get out of here . johnny : no , no , i do n't see that happening . connie : why ? johnny : 'cause from what i understand , you 've done a lot of damage . dr. keenan 's in i.c.u . connie : what was i supposed to do ? he was going to have us committed to shadybrook . johnny : yeah , instead , you 're being held here on assault charges . connie : well , i would have been on my way on the airplane if jason had n't grabbed me . johnny : oh , i 'm really sorry that did n't work out for you . connie : look -- can you help me ? can you get me out ? johnny : i do n't see how that 's going to work . connie : come on , j . come on . smart guy like you ? you can think of something . come on , they 're going to have someone come in here and hypnotize me again . johnny : yeah , my advice to you -- cooperate . connie : [ scoffs ] johnny : you and kate could benefit from some therapy . connie : yeah , well , you know what ? she 's whining and moaning that i shot out anthony 's tires , which i most definitely did not do . johnny : maybe you should tell them you did . the idea came to me right away . best one i ever had . [ scene_break ] kate : the gun was mine ? the gun was connie 's ? sonny : kate . you got to be strong here , kate . i got -- i got connie to tell me everything . the night that you walked out on me , and i got shot , she knew you would take me back . kate : she -- she put me in that wedding dress to remind me of the danger . sonny : and she used my vendetta against anthony to set me up . kate : because she knew you 'd go after him . sonny : and she went after him when he was going to the airport . kate : she shot at him . i shot at him . i ca n't -- believe i really did that . sonny : i 'm having a hard time believing it , too . [ scene_break ] johnny : you know , at first , connie was n't really on board with the plan . took a little convincing . connie : what are you talking about ? i did n't take the shot at anthony . why would i say that i did that ? johnny : because sonny is on the fence about kate right now , right ? connie : yeah . johnny : it 's only a matter of time before he forgives her . and then kate is going to blame the whole assault on dr. keenan on you , and kate is going to grow stronger and stronger with sonny 's love and support . connie : yeah , 'cause he 's a freakin ' idiot , and she ca n't get out of her own way . johnny : kate 's going to be cured , right ? and she and sonny , they 're going to live happily ever after , and you ? you 're going to be gone . connie : whoa , i ai n't going nowhere . no one 's getting rid of me that easily . what ? johnny : your plan this entire time was to get kate out of sonny 's life , right ? connie : yeah , okay . so you tell me to confess to something that i did n't do ? johnny : no , listen -- sleeping with me was n't enough of a betrayal . but if sonny thinks that you framed him for murder , that you shot out anthony 's tires , caused that accident , and then you planted the gun , he 's going to be done with kate forever , and you -- you 're going to be free . connie : no . no , because even if alexis can plead that case for insanity , i 'm going to be stuck in shadybrook . johnny : so you stay there for a little while . it 's not prison . you pretend to be cured and you get out . and then you go start a life of your own somewhere . connie : without sonny . johnny : you asked for my help . here it is . huh ? connie : huh ? that could work . johnny : it could . so , all that 's left now is for connie to take my advice . and i got a pretty good feeling she will . [ scene_break ] kate : connie confessed . she tried to destroy you . she shot at anthony 's car . and he slid into oncoming traffic . he forced another car through the guardrail . that little girl and her father ! i killed them . it 's my fault . it 's my fault .

[ scene_break ] sam : are you saying that you want to raise this baby together ? jason : sam , i want to . and i 'm -- i 'm sorry , but -- living with franco 's baby is just -- it 's just still too hard for me to accept . sam : and there 's no chance you 're going to change your mind ? jason : i do n't -- i do n't -- i do n't know . i mean , you moved out so fast that we did n't get a chance to talk about anything , about any alternatives . sam : alternatives ? jason : yeah , a way that we could -- we could still be together . sam : are you saying you want to put this baby up for adoption ? jason : i -- i do n't know . i 'm just saying that there 's people out there who would love the baby , who would n't judge the baby , and that 's what this baby deserves . sam : i -- i did , jason . i thought about it for a second . i really did . i thought maybe i could put my own issues with my adoption aside for a second . i thought about being able to give this baby to a family that would be loving and it would be a good solution for everyone . jason : we can still have kids . you know , when you 're ready . sam : when i saw that sonogram , jason -- and i felt my baby move -- and i realized that this baby is a part of me , and when ronnie jammed that gun in my side , it became real . i love this baby . i want this baby . and i can handle it , even if you ca n't . molly : hey . class starts any second . um -- but i 'm okay with leaving if you want to work with sam . sam : no , no , no . it 's just you and me , sis . come on .

[ scene_break ] anthony : unh ! you surprised me , johnny . i did n't think you had it in you to be so cold and calculated . johnny : oh , come on . it runs in the family . you 're the one who convinced me to use connie in the first place , right ? anthony : agreeing to a little bounce on the bed is one thing , but if kate does what you suggested , she could end up in a looney bin for the rest of her life . johnny : as long as she 's out of my way . [ scene_break ] starr : you saw my dad ? michael : yeah , i ran into him at the metro court . he knows i 'm supposed to testify against you . starr : look , he 's worried about me . whatever he said , he 's just -- michael : he wants me to withdraw my statement . i told him i could n't . starr : how did he react ? michael : he was n't happy . starr : did he threaten you ? michael : well , i -- i told him i was going to do what i have to do . he said he was , too , and he left . starr : i told him to stay out of this . staying out of things is not exactly my dad 's thing .

'cause his mother is just way too involved in his life . and instead of confronting her , he 's just dishing it out on everybody else . rose : people like you ? dusty : yeah . but i do n't know . but i 'm telling you this , he had the one opportunity to get his mother off his back . and what did he do ? he did n't take it . i mean , did he make it clear -- did he make it clear that you were everything to him ? i mean , whether you were involved in the kidnapping or not , did he make it clear that he loves you no matter what ? no , he did not . why ? because he 's playing both sides of the fence when he should be standing beside you always and telling his mother where she can go . i mean , you know , i love paul . i love him like he 's my brother . but i got ta tell you this . he tries way too hard to prove that he 's not a mama 's boy . rose : do n't you talk like that about paul . i mean it , do n't you -- dusty : tell me that i mean nothing to you , and you 'll never see me again . go ahead . rose : i hate you .

'cause when someone is hurt and confused , they do n't always make the best decisions . molly : i guess we both kind of know about that . mike : i guess we do . i promise you , i 'll never let anything happen to you . molly : what 's wrong ? mike : it 's like i said about being confused . i want you so bad right now . molly : make love to me . mike : if there 's even a chance that you and i are going to get back together , i want it to be because that 's what we both want . all right ? not because you 're scared and upset about something else . molly : i guess you 're right . i guess neither one of us should do anything to confuse the situation anymore . mike : you can take the bed . molly : no . it 's your bed . i 'll take the couch . just get me a blanket and a pillow . mike : are you sure ? molly : can i borrow a t - shirt ? mike : yeah .

[ sighs ] avery : hmm . dylan : what 's wrong ? avery : well , the picture of you and me at the cabin is missing . that must be how adam figured out where you were . but how would we know where the cabin was ? dylan : chelsea knew about it . she must have told him . guess we know where her loyalties are . and why not , now that the truth is out . avery : dylan , she was just trying to protect her son . dylan : you think she 's gon na want to press charges ? avery : well , she ca n't , because legally , you 're still connor 's father . dylan : yeah . not for long . avery : look , i know you 're hurt and angry , and you have every right to be . but you should know , when you were flashing back to afghanistan , chelsea was really scared to death . dylan : she was worried about her son . avery : she was , but she also was n't gon na let anything happen to you . dylan : do you have any other wood screws ? these two are too short . avery : you may not remember what happened at the cabin , but i saw chelsea was really concerned about you . and i know you 're hurt . but i also know you still love her and that little boy . and , dylan , the three of you were happy . you were a family . is n't there still a part of you that wants that ? dylan : just because you and nick got your happily ever after does n't mean the rest of us will . nick : why do you think it 's your fault that i 'm upset ? faith : i was n't nice to avery . nick : and you think that 's the reason she did n't show up to the wedding ? faith : uh - huh . nick : sweetheart , i can promise you that is not the reason that me and avery did n't get married . you had nothing to do with it . faith : i did n't ? nick : not a chance . faith : you 're not mad at me ? nick : not even a little bit , sweetie . faith : i still wish you were n't sad . nick : well ... you know what would make me really happy ? faith : what ? nick : let 's go get some ice cream . faith : yay . can mommy come , too ? sharon : oh , no , why do n't you and daddy go ? faith : please ? nick : you know , i think that 's a great idea . let 's do it . sharon : do you have a jacket in yr backpack ? it 's getting a little cooler in the evenings . okay , good . put that on . you ready ? nick : [ sighs ] yeah . let 's go get happy . sharon : whoo ! faith : my jacket just needs to go on . paul : come in . nikki : um , you -- you said that father martin sent you ? what did he tell you about me ? do you -- do you know why i showed up at the church ? is that why you 're here ? man : i 'm here because you left something at the church . i - i came to return it to you . nikki : oh ! so ... i thought ... you 're -- you 're not ... paul : uh , thank you , uh , for returning this . and , uh , thank father martin , as ll . man : yeah , uh , glad to help . paul : okay . um ... good night . thanks again .

[ paper rustling ] dylan : lock 's fixed . avery : thanks . uh , i was just gon na make myself dinner -- myself -- because i would n't want to make a fuss over you , god forbid , but if you are hungry , i could make enough for two . dylan : you do n't have to babysit me . avery : i 'm making dinner for myself . dylan : but you just got married . you should be having dinner with nick . avery : so , do you want something or not ? dylan : avery , what 's going on ? i know you were late to the wedding because i showed up here -- avery : you showed up a mess . dylan : a - a mess . i know . i 'm -- i 'm sorry . but what -- what happened ? you still got married , did n't you ? sharon : i hate to see you hurting like this . faith : i thought ice cream would make you feel better , daddy . nick : oh , it did , sweetheart . it did . i just -- i think i ate so much that i 'm in so much pain . ohh !

[ liquid pours ] [ glass clinks ] chelsea : we argued . adam : you pleaded with me to stop harassing you about the paternity of your child . i relented . and then you collapsed right where i 'm standing . i rushed you off to the hospital . you want to know what i was thinking the entire time we were on the way to the hospital ? i was thinking about our child , the baby that we lost , and i was praying that would n't happen to you again . little did i know that that was my child that you were carrying . well , here we are . you 're back , both of you . chelsea : we 're not back . you forced us to be here . adam : you should have come here the second that you found out that you were pregnant . chelsea : you made that impossible . adam : i would have been there for the both of you . chelsea : connor and i never would have been a priority for you , adam . adam : you never gave me a chance . you needed to tell me the truth . chelsea : i did ! adam : you -- what ? chelsea : i did tell you . in the hospital after you were shot . when i thought that you were going to die , i told you about the baby , that you were gon na be a father . even though you were unconscious , i - i hoped on some level you could hear me and you would come back to us . and it worked . you woke up . and the first person you called for ... was sharon . paul : you know , nikki , in all the things that you and victor have been through , i ca n't understand why you think this would be the one he could n't handle . i mean , how many women have given up their child for adoption ? nikki : one of those children was victor newman . his mother left him at an orphanage when he was 7 . very few people know what that did to him . paul : [ sighs ] nikki : he felt truly and utterly abandoned and alone . he used to wait for his mother to come back for him . and she never did . he hated her for that . and he never forgave her until she was on her deathbed . if i were to go to him and say that i abandoned my son ... paul : no , no , nikki . this is a completely different situation . nikki : no . paul : it is . nik : i walked away from my child just like victor 's mother . [ voice breaking ] he would see me the way he saw her , and i could n't bear that . paul : no , no , no . sweetheart , come on . let 's not get ahead of ourselves . nikki : [ sniffles ] paul : you know ? we -- we do n't know that anything sister clare has said is true . we just have to wait and find out . nikki : i know . one step at a time . i know . paul : right . and until we find your son , you do n't have to worry about anything else . nikki : [ sighs ] adam : i had no idea . chelsea : and what ? if you had heard me , things would have been different ? adam : we 'll never know now , will we ? chelsea : i know . you almost died . i was with you ... every minute , holding your hand , begging you to wake up and come back to me and our child . and then when you finally did , your first thoughts were of sharon . adam : i 'm sorry . i was drugged . i was confused . chelsea : and at your most vulnerable . [ sniffles ] and she 's the one you called for . adam : she was the last person that i saw before i fell unconscious . chelsea , you should have told me . you should have waited until i was awake and i was clear - headed . chelsea : why , adam ? you think you really would have dropped everything and made me and our child your priority ? adam : yes . chelsea : no . you would have been the same cold - hearted bastard of a father to him that victor 's been to you . adam : so you made a unilateral decision based on how you thought i might behave . chelsea : i was n't just guessing , adam . i know firsthand how you treat people you supposedly love . you promised me over and over that you would change , and you never did . you broke your word and my heart again and again . i was not about to sit back and watch you do the same thing to my child . adam : well , now you 're gon na have to sit back and watch a judge try and figure this thing out . chelsea : [ sniffles ] [ sighs ] nick : it 's amazing how something can die so quickly . i mean , not too long ago , this was alive and beautiful , and now it 's ... sharon : nick ... nick : it 's true . you know , one minute something 's here , and the next it 's gone . summer and avery and ... i ca n't help wondering . sharon : wondering what ? nick : a few months ago , everything in my life was good . actually , it was great . and now it 's all slipping away , and i do n't know how or why . sharon : you have n't lost everything . you still have faith and me . faith : i 'm tired . let 's go home . sharon : of course . let 's go . nick : you know what ? i 'm gon na , uh , stick around here a little while longer . sharon : you sure ? nick : yeah , i 'll just , uh , take a cab home . come here . thank you so much for cheering me up today . faith : good night , daddy . nick : good night . i love you . sharon : let me know if you need anything . nick : okay . thanks .

[ sighs ] avery : hmm . dylan : what 's wrong ? avery : well , the picture of you and me at the cabin is missing . that must be how adam figured out where you were . but how would we know where the cabin was ? dylan : chelsea knew about it . she must have told him . guess we know where her loyalties are . and why not , now that the truth is out . avery : dylan , she was just trying to protect her son . dylan : you think she 's gon na want to press charges ? avery : well , she ca n't , because legally , you 're still connor 's father . dylan : yeah . not for long . avery : look , i know you 're hurt and angry , and you have every right to be . but you should know , when you were flashing back to afghanistan , chelsea was really scared to death . dylan : she was worried about her son . avery : she was , but she also was n't gon na let anything happen to you . dylan : do you have any other wood screws ? these two are too short . avery : you may not remember what happened at the cabin , but i saw chelsea was really concerned about you . and i know you 're hurt . but i also know you still love her and that little boy . and , dylan , the three of you were happy . you were a family . is n't there still a part of you that wants that ? dylan : just because you and nick got your happily ever after does n't mean the rest of us will . nick : why do you think it 's your fault that i 'm upset ? faith : i was n't nice to avery . nick : and you think that 's the reason she did n't show up to the wedding ? faith : uh - huh . nick : sweetheart , i can promise you that is not the reason that me and avery did n't get married . you had nothing to do with it . faith : i did n't ? nick : not a chance . faith : you 're not mad at me ? nick : not even a little bit , sweetie . faith : i still wish you were n't sad . nick : well ... you know what would make me really happy ? faith : what ? nick : let 's go get some ice cream . faith : yay . can mommy come , too ? sharon : oh , no , why do n't you and daddy go ? faith : please ? nick : you know , i think that 's a great idea . let 's do it . sharon : do you have a jacket in yr backpack ? it 's getting a little cooler in the evenings . okay , good . put that on . you ready ? nick : [ sighs ] yeah . let 's go get happy . sharon : whoo ! faith : my jacket just needs to go on . paul : come in . nikki : um , you -- you said that father martin sent you ? what did he tell you about me ? do you -- do you know why i showed up at the church ? is that why you 're here ? man : i 'm here because you left something at the church . i - i came to return it to you . nikki : oh ! so ... i thought ... you 're -- you 're not ... paul : uh , thank you , uh , for returning this . and , uh , thank father martin , as ll . man : yeah , uh , glad to help . paul : okay . um ... good night . thanks again .

[ sniffles ] paul : yeah , what if she does ? nikki : what do you mean ? paul : well , have you thought about what you 're going to do if we do find your son ? nikki : i 've been so focused on finding my child , i have n't really thought about how i would react to it . paul : well , no time like the present . nikki : well , first of all , i would want to make sure he 's all right . paul : beyond that ? nikki : well , in my dream world , he would have been raised by parents who loved him and gave him everything that he needed to grow up and have a good , happy life and be doing something that he feels passionate about and is sharing his life with someone he loves , maybe even has children of his own . paul : and in your dream world , does your son know about you ? nikki : he was told that i gave him up out of love , and when we first meet , he would let me fill in the missing pieces of his life and give him closure . and then once he got used to the idea , maybe even accept me as his mother . paul : oh , nikki . nikki : i know . it 's just a dream . paul : you know , i 'd love for it to work out the way you want . i just do n't want to see you get your hopes up . avery : happily ever after is only in fairy tales . real - life relationships take work . maybe you can make this right . dylan : you know as well as i do , when things get to a certain point ... you ca n't go back . faith : want the last bite , daddy ? nick : nah , you go ahead . sharon : sweetie , could you throw the cups away for us ? faith : sure . sharon : thank you . nick : there you go . you got it . sharon : you know , we really did n't have to come here tonight . nick : that 's all right . faith really likes that ice - cream place down by the playground . sharon : yeah , but this is where you were supposed to get married , and it must not be easy for you to be back here so soon . nick : well , whether i was here or at home , i 'd still be thinking about what happened . or what did n't happen . [ paper rustling ] dylan : lock 's fixed . avery : thanks . uh , i was just gon na make myself dinner -- myself -- because i would n't want to make a fuss over you , god forbid , but if you are hungry , i could make enough for two . dylan : you do n't have to babysit me . avery : i 'm making dinner for myself . dylan : but you just got married . you should be having dinner with nick . avery : so , do you want something or not ? dylan : avery , what 's going on ? i know you were late to the wedding because i showed up here -- avery : you showed up a mess . dylan : a - a mess . i know . i 'm -- i 'm sorry . but what -- what happened ? you still got married , did n't you ? sharon : i hate to see you hurting like this . faith : i thought ice cream would make you feel better , daddy . nick : oh , it did , sweetheart . it did . i just -- i think i ate so much that i 'm in so much pain . ohh !

[ sniffles ] time to go , connor . [ sniffles ] okay , sweet boy . okay , sweet baby . yes . i got you . connor : [ fusses ] chelsea : i got you . yes , i do . i got you . [ sniffles ] dylan : you do n't mean `` not , `` like in `` never . `` you just mean that this was a temporary postponement , right ? avery : i mean like nick and i are finished . dylan : what ? w - why ? because you were late to the wedding ? did you explain that i was the one that held you up , that you were trying to help me , that it was my -- that 's why you broke up . avery : dylan -- dylan : i know coming to town caused a lot of trouble for you and nick , but i thought nick got past all that . avery : you did not cause my breakup , okay ? there were a lot of factors involved . dylan : i 'm sorry . i really wanted this to work out for you . avery : so did i . you know , just there -- there were things that we could n't get past . and , um ... i do n't know . you just ca n't deny the truth . dylan : yeah . the truth . [ sighs ] man , i so wanted to believe in that once - in - a- lifetime love my mom and dad had . after everything that happened to us ... i finally thought i had that with -- with chelsea . avery : yeah , i thought i had it with nick . nick : thank you so much for hanging out with me today . it really helped . faith : and mommy ? nick : yes . and mommy . faith : when you and avery do get married , does that mean you and mommy and me wo n't be able to go out together anymore ? nick : that 's what i wanted to talk to you about . avery and i are n't gon na be getting married . faith : ever ? nick : nope . you know , sometimes when people love each other , it does n't mean that they 're meant to be married . faith : and you 're not mad at me ? nick : oh , sweetheart , not even a little bit . faith : but you 're still sad . nick : yeah , daddy 's a little sad . faith : do n't worry , daddy . mommy and i will cheer you up . nikki : i know that we might find my son and he could not want to have anything to do with me . paul : or he could be a lot more interested in your money than your love . nikki : so stop fantasizing . i get it . but we already know who his father was . who 's to say that he did n't turn out just like him ? paul : well , i think if he were running a modern - day version of the new world commune that we would have found him by now . nikki : he could have inherited some nasty traits . i mean , what if he really is his father 's son ? paul : nikki , i think it 's best not to jump to any conclusions . although i think it 's very prudent to consider all possibilities . nikki : or he could be a saint and thrilled to meet his mother . i would still have to deal with telling victor and the kids about him . paul : well , i think if you wanted them to accept him as your son , they would . nikki : it did n't work out that way for adam . and i would n't want to put them through that again . paul : you know , if we keep pursuing this , you 're not gon na be able to control the outcome . nikki : i know . katherine really wanted me to find my child . paul : that 's because she was certain your marriage was strong enough to survive . nikki : what if she was wrong ? chelsea : sweet dreams , baby . mommy will be right here . what ? adam : i 'm just thinking . chelsea : about how you 're gon na steal my son from me ? adam : about the last time you were here . [ liquid pours ] [ glass clinks ] chelsea : we argued . adam : you pleaded with me to stop harassing you about the paternity of your child . i relented . and then you collapsed right where i 'm standing . i rushed you off to the hospital . you want to know what i was thinking the entire time we were on the way to the hospital ? i was thinking about our child , the baby that we lost , and i was praying that would n't happen to you again . little did i know that that was my child that you were carrying . well , here we are . you 're back , both of you . chelsea : we 're not back . you forced us to be here . adam : you should have come here the second that you found out that you were pregnant . chelsea : you made that impossible . adam : i would have been there for the both of you . chelsea : connor and i never would have been a priority for you , adam . adam : you never gave me a chance . you needed to tell me the truth . chelsea : i did ! adam : you -- what ? chelsea : i did tell you . in the hospital after you were shot . when i thought that you were going to die , i told you about the baby , that you were gon na be a father . even though you were unconscious , i - i hoped on some level you could hear me and you would come back to us . and it worked . you woke up . and the first person you called for ... was sharon . paul : you know , nikki , in all the things that you and victor have been through , i ca n't understand why you think this would be the one he could n't handle . i mean , how many women have given up their child for adoption ? nikki : one of those children was victor newman . his mother left him at an orphanage when he was 7 . very few people know what that did to him . paul : [ sighs ] nikki : he felt truly and utterly abandoned and alone . he used to wait for his mother to come back for him . and she never did . he hated her for that . and he never forgave her until she was on her deathbed . if i were to go to him and say that i abandoned my son ... paul : no , no , nikki . this is a completely different situation . nikki : no . paul : it is . nik : i walked away from my child just like victor 's mother . [ voice breaking ] he would see me the way he saw her , and i could n't bear that . paul : no , no , no . sweetheart , come on . let 's not get ahead of ourselves . nikki : [ sniffles ] paul : you know ? we -- we do n't know that anything sister clare has said is true . we just have to wait and find out . nikki : i know . one step at a time . i know . paul : right . and until we find your son , you do n't have to worry about anything else . nikki : [ sighs ] adam : i had no idea . chelsea : and what ? if you had heard me , things would have been different ? adam : we 'll never know now , will we ? chelsea : i know . you almost died . i was with you ... every minute , holding your hand , begging you to wake up and come back to me and our child . and then when you finally did , your first thoughts were of sharon . adam : i 'm sorry . i was drugged . i was confused . chelsea : and at your most vulnerable . [ sniffles ] and she 's the one you called for . adam : she was the last person that i saw before i fell unconscious . chelsea , you should have told me . you should have waited until i was awake and i was clear - headed . chelsea : why , adam ? you think you really would have dropped everything and made me and our child your priority ? adam : yes . chelsea : no . you would have been the same cold - hearted bastard of a father to him that victor 's been to you . adam : so you made a unilateral decision based on how you thought i might behave . chelsea : i was n't just guessing , adam . i know firsthand how you treat people you supposedly love . you promised me over and over that you would change , and you never did . you broke your word and my heart again and again . i was not about to sit back and watch you do the same thing to my child . adam : well , now you 're gon na have to sit back and watch a judge try and figure this thing out . chelsea : [ sniffles ] [ sighs ] nick : it 's amazing how something can die so quickly . i mean , not too long ago , this was alive and beautiful , and now it 's ... sharon : nick ... nick : it 's true . you know , one minute something 's here , and the next it 's gone . summer and avery and ... i ca n't help wondering . sharon : wondering what ? nick : a few months ago , everything in my life was good . actually , it was great . and now it 's all slipping away , and i do n't know how or why . sharon : you have n't lost everything . you still have faith and me . faith : i 'm tired . let 's go home . sharon : of course . let 's go . nick : you know what ? i 'm gon na , uh , stick around here a little while longer . sharon : you sure ? nick : yeah , i 'll just , uh , take a cab home . come here . thank you so much for cheering me up today . faith : good night , daddy . nick : good night . i love you . sharon : let me know if you need anything . nick : okay . thanks .

[ scene_break ] avery : hey ! summer : hi ! avery : have you seen dylan ? summer : uh , no , not since i 've been here , which has been awhile . avery : ah . well , you know what ? you 're probably a better person to ask this . uh , you 're good at social media , right ? summer : yeah , no , i 'm on it practically all day long . why ? are you interested in getting into it ? avery : the producers of my show want me to . they think it 'll be a good way to generate buzz now that my show got ordered . summer : seriously ? you got the green light ? avery : you are looking at the new host of `` you 're being served . `` i 'm still not crazy about that title . summer : no , that is so awesome ! that is so cool ! my aunt 's gon na be a star ! avery : okay , well [ laughs ] hold on . i do n't know about that . but the pilot got a decent number of views , and they 're looking to attract a larger audience . [ scene_break ] ian : perhaps i could offer some insight . hilary : mmm . [ sighs ] [ moans ] god , do n't stop . [ moaning ] ian : what a pleasant surprise . it 's lovely to see you again , summer . i 've thought of you often . avery : she has n't thought of you at all . and we intend to keep it that way . ian : well , as i said , i was just offering -- summer : insight ? yeah , we know . just like you were gon na offer my grandma before you took advantage of her ? look , you can talk about your stupid path all you want , but i know it 's just a way for you to get money . ian : well , i make a good living because i 'm good at what i do and because i truly care about people , just as i care about you . avery : oh , my god . do n't listen to him , summer . ian : still letting others tell you what to do , i see . such a shame . i could have helped you achieve your full potential . but instead , you find it easy to just stay stuck in place . summer : that 's not true . avery : okay , summer 's life is none of your business , and neither is dylan 's . and you know what ? i do n't want to see your face again . ian : well , that 's gon na be rather difficult since your law partner 's my attorney . [ chuckles ] i mean , i would n't be free now if old leslie had n't worked tirelessly on my defense , but i do n't have to tell you what that 's like . i mean , how many people have you helped get their lives back after being wrongly accused ? avery : you 're not wrongly accused . ian : ah . avery : and you will get what 's coming to you sooner or later . ian : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] nikki : that 's does n't make any sense . and does n't ian making you his beneficiary give you even more incentive to take action against him ? dylan : not if i do n't want the cops coming after me . and ian 's betting that i do n't . nikki : is he right ? dylan : are you asking me if i 'm gon na hurt the guy ? no plans . i just hate that he 's free to walk around until a new trial date is set . nikki : yeah . no kidding . he needs to be locked up , that way he has no power over us . but , you know , i have to say , as awful as it was seeing him again after all these years , a lot of good came out of it . i am a stronger person now , brought my family closer together . even you and nicholas have set aside your differences . dylan : we 're talking , at least . nikki : oh , it 's more than that , and you know it . but i understand your hesitancy . you have this ready - made family thrust on you . dylan : yeah , and that family is ... nikki : [ chuckles ] overwhelming ? dylan : [ chuckles ] and then some . just figuring out how you 're all related takes some doing . nikki : yeah , i hear that . but , uh , it 's better than being an only child , i think . i mean , there 's something to having a lot of people in your corner . when push comes to shove , the newmans always rally around each other . [ scene_break ] victor : instead of helping me protect my son , you implicated me in the mess you created . and now you 've turned my son against me . cassie : i tried to keep your name out of it . i told him this whole `` spooking sharon `` thing was my idea and that i was doing it to extort money out of your family , but he did n't believe me . victor : really ? do you think he 's a fool , hmm ? why 'd you come back ? get a bigger payoff , or what ? cassie : no , it 's not about that . victor : you think i 'm a fool , as well ? cassie : i swear i came back to genoa city to make things right . [ scene_break ] sharon : it 's unbelievable , is n't it , how much she looks like cassie ? and it 's not just her hair or her eyes . it 's even her mannerisms . nick : yeah , dad really outdid himself with this girl . and then playing henry higgins with her , giving her old pictures of the family and telling her stories ? it 's no wonder you thought she was cassie . sharon : it 's a good thing you caught her outside of the ranch house , otherwise victor would have gotten away with this . nick : it just really ticks me off that my dad is trying to turn this around on you , you know , saying he went to these lengths because you got some secret . sharon : he 's right . i do . sharon : after your dad accused me , i got to thinking , and so i asked dr. mead if i had ever mentioned having a secret , and she said that i had . nick : okay . is it a good thing we 're sitting down for this ? sharon : well , the problem is , she does n't have any of the details , and it may be awhile before i have any . nick : has anything come back to you ? sharon : no . and it 's really frustrating because i keep trying to remember . nick : well , do n't push it , sharon . sharon : but what if it 's something important ? what if it 's something that we need to know now and that 's why your dad was trying to get to the bottom of it ? nick : no . no , nothing justifies what my dad has done . sharon : what if he was trying to protect you ? nick : he was not trying to protect me . he was trying to control me and dictate my life the way he always has . now , he 's done some pretty despicable things to make that happen , but him using cassie to try and drive you crazy , it 's -- [ sighs ] sharon : where are you going ? nick : i 'm gon na go handle this once and for all . [ scene_break ] victor : there 's no way to make things right where sharon is concerned , all right ? by her own admission , she has a secret that she 's keeping from nicholas , a secret that would hurt him . cassie : i know . victor : really ? how much do you know ? what are you keeping from me ? cassie : nothing . i would n't do that . victor : really ? you 'd do anything to benefit yourself , would n't you ? cassie : the only way i 'd benefit is by giving you what you want . victor : you were incapable of doing that . cassie : give me another chance . victor : give you another chance to screw up things even more ? cassie : i can help you . with nick , i can try to smooth things over between you two . the fact that i look like cassie has got to count for something , does n't it ? victor : listen to me very carefully . do n't ever approach nicholas again . do n't ever approach anyone in my family again . if i find out that you have , you 'll be in the custody of the portland pd in no time at all . cassie : it wo n't come to that . i can think of better ways to spend the money you paid me than on a defense attorney . victor : good . so we do understand each other . keep it that way . [ scene_break ] [ door closes ] esmerelda : it 's still there . just checking . your phone . you did n't answer when i called earlier . devon : yeah , i was , um , i was in a meeting . but , uh , what you want ? esmerelda : i just bought this fabulous dress , and i thought you should take me to the velvet room so i can be seen in it . devon : velvet room , huh ? esmerelda : mm - hmm . has the best dance floor . we can invite some friends , make a night of it . what do you say ? devon : you know , that sounds like just what i need . [ scene_break ] ian : now , i know you did n't mean that as a threat . but others might not . i mean , i 'd hate to have your words misconstrued , especially in front of witnesses . summer : i did n't hear anything . ian : of course you did n't . but do n't worry . you do n't have to cover for your aunt . as an attorney , she 's well aware of how , uh , statements can be used against someone in a court of law . and miss clark is far too smart to threaten someone in public . dylan , however , is another matter . avery : okay . what are you implying ? ian : i 'm not implying anything . i 'm stating a fact . my son has a habit of losing his temper , and it 's gotten him into trouble . now , there are ways that you can manage those anger issues if dylan would just set aside his pride and ask for help . avery : he already got help , and he certainly does n't need any from you . summer : you know , besides , he has my aunt avery that he can count on . ian : does he ? you 're already a busy lady , you know , with your law practice , and now with this new web series , it 's bound to use up what free time you have left . of course , who can blame you for wanting to do it ? it 's clear you need a refuge . but i doubt that dylan would be as understanding . i mean , who knows how he would react . avery : [ scoffs ] [ scene_break ] dylan : uh , just let me know if ian bothers you . nikki : oh , let 's hope it does n't come to that .

[ scene_break ] devon : you know what we could do ? we could invite abby and tyler to come along . maybe even convince lily and cane to join us . lily could tell us how the youth dance program is doing downtown at the community center . i kicked in some money to help fund the thing and put lily in charge 'cause i figured it would , uh , it would give kids who do n't have access to those kind of programs , you know , a chance to get involved , 'cause god knows i did n't have those opportunities growing up . esmerelda : i 'd love to spend time with lily . we could , uh , swap modeling stories . like that time i had that swimsuit shoot on that island in the middle of nowhere . can you imagine ? no bars , no shopping , no phone service . ugh , i thought i was going to die . [ sighs ] devon : yeah , that sounds tragic . um , you know what ? before we go , i need to talk to the chef . esmerelda : oh , sure . i have to go change anyway . devon : okay . esmerelda : bye . see you later . devon : see you . hey , can i get one more drink ? thanks .

[ scene_break ] avery : leave it up to you to create issues where they do n't exist . you want to know how dylan will respond to my show ? he 'll be happy and supportive . ian : until something drives him off the rails again . summer : you know , my aunt 's already told you . dylan 's gotten help , okay ? ian : a few sessions with a shrink will not wipe out his time in combat . whereas i can offer dylan a real cure . avery : dylan has made it very clear he wants nothing to do with you , which means stop showing up at his place of business . it constitutes harassment , and i will be happy to file that restraining order . ian : whoa . how about that ? it does n't appear that a restraining order will be necessary . dylan does n't seem to mind my presence at all . nikki : no , nicholas . i do n't believe that . your father would never do that . nick : how many times have we said that , only to learn that dad is capable of just about anything ? nikki : anything but use our granddaughter 's memory to torture sharon in a heinous way . nick : the girl confirmed it , and dad did n't deny it . for him , that 's tantamount to an admission of guilt . nikki : i just do n't get this . he did n't seem upset when you brought sharon to the engagement party . nick : that 's because he did n't want to show his hand . mom , he has too much to lose . he invested so much time and effort into this sick plan . nikki : how much time ? nick : mom , the haunting 's been going on for months . nikki : months ? ! oh , my god in heaven . oh , my god ! nick : sharon could never understand why she was n't getting any better . she was doing everything they told her to do . she was on meds . she was in therapy . she worked so hard to get healthy , and not just for her -- for our kids , too . nikki : and your father sabotaged that . nick : i do n't understand how he can do that to my children .

[ scene_break ] avery : well , you just proved my point with that observation . ian : proven what point ? avery : well , the fact that dylan n walk right by you without even flinching . he seems more than capable of controlling his emotions , so you can stop coming in here and trying to provoke him . ian : i come here because i like the coffee and because it 's a good place to meet people . summer : or recruit people . ian : that 's my job . i 'm in the self - help business . men and women who 've lost their way approach me for guidance . like that young man right over there or like you . summer : i lost my way the minute that i started listening to you . and trust me , that wo n't happen again . ian : if you change your mind , you have my card . ladies , lovely seeing you again . avery : ugh . summer : oh , my god . he is such a creep ! i ca n't believe i ever bought into his bull ! dylan : a lot of people bought into it , including your grandmother . he talks a great game . summer : i just wish that everyone would finally see him for who he really is so he can stop ruining lives . dylan : yeah , me , too . avery : i 'm surprised you did n't throw him out of here . dylan : if ian gets a reaction out of me , he 's in control . i 'm not giving him the power .

[ scene_break ] victor : you 're setting yourself up for a fall , son , by investing in sharon again . she 's keeping a secret from you . nick : so you decide to get sharon out of my life for good by playing god , resurrecting cassie from the grave and convincing sharon that she was losing her mind and forcing her to commit herself ? victor : i did n't force her to do a damn thing . nick : directly or indirectly , you are to blame for this . do you have any idea how hard it was for me to explain to faith that her mother was in the hospital and that she might not make it out ? nikki : how could you put that poor child through that ? victor : your children are better off without their mother . nick : you do n't get to decide that ! she is their mother ! you ca n't erase her from their lives , nor from mine ! victor : will you finally wake up ? sharon is manipulating you , son ! she knows you 're vulnerable after avery walked out of your life and the paternity situation with summer ! she latched on to you like a leech ! she took advantage of your feelings ! do n't confuse that with love ! nick : i am not confused about the way i feel about sharon , and i 'm not confused about how i feel about you right now . i will never forgive you for this . victor : son -- nick : i am not your son . i do n't have a father anymore . victor : you have it your way , son . i will always be your father !

[ scene_break ] [ knock on door ] cassie : [ sighs ] what do you want ? victor : i paid you a great deal of money to find out what secret sharon is keeping from my son . you failed to do that . i asked you to leave town , but you returned . and you got caught by nicholas . now , you do n't think i 'm gon na let that go , do you ?

[ chuckles ] i mean , i would n't be free now if old leslie had n't worked tirelessly on my defense , but i do n't have to tell you what that 's like . i mean , how many people have you helped get their lives back after being wrongly accused ? avery : you 're not wrongly accused . ian : ah . avery : and you will get what 's coming to you sooner or later . ian : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] nikki : that 's does n't make any sense . and does n't ian making you his beneficiary give you even more incentive to take action against him ? dylan : not if i do n't want the cops coming after me . and ian 's betting that i do n't . nikki : is he right ? dylan : are you asking me if i 'm gon na hurt the guy ? no plans . i just hate that he 's free to walk around until a new trial date is set . nikki : yeah . no kidding . he needs to be locked up , that way he has no power over us . but , you know , i have to say , as awful as it was seeing him again after all these years , a lot of good came out of it . i am a stronger person now , brought my family closer together . even you and nicholas have set aside your differences . dylan : we 're talking , at least . nikki : oh , it 's more than that , and you know it . but i understand your hesitancy . you have this ready - made family thrust on you . dylan : yeah , and that family is ... nikki : [ chuckles ] overwhelming ? dylan : [ chuckles ] and then some . just figuring out how you 're all related takes some doing . nikki : yeah , i hear that . but , uh , it 's better than being an only child , i think . i mean , there 's something to having a lot of people in your corner . when push comes to shove , the newmans always rally around each other . [ scene_break ] victor : instead of helping me protect my son , you implicated me in the mess you created . and now you 've turned my son against me . cassie : i tried to keep your name out of it . i told him this whole `` spooking sharon `` thing was my idea and that i was doing it to extort money out of your family , but he did n't believe me . victor : really ? do you think he 's a fool , hmm ? why 'd you come back ? get a bigger payoff , or what ? cassie : no , it 's not about that . victor : you think i 'm a fool , as well ? cassie : i swear i came back to genoa city to make things right . [ scene_break ] sharon : it 's unbelievable , is n't it , how much she looks like cassie ? and it 's not just her hair or her eyes . it 's even her mannerisms . nick : yeah , dad really outdid himself with this girl . and then playing henry higgins with her , giving her old pictures of the family and telling her stories ? it 's no wonder you thought she was cassie . sharon : it 's a good thing you caught her outside of the ranch house , otherwise victor would have gotten away with this . nick : it just really ticks me off that my dad is trying to turn this around on you , you know , saying he went to these lengths because you got some secret . sharon : he 's right . i do . sharon : after your dad accused me , i got to thinking , and so i asked dr. mead if i had ever mentioned having a secret , and she said that i had . nick : okay . is it a good thing we 're sitting down for this ? sharon : well , the problem is , she does n't have any of the details , and it may be awhile before i have any . nick : has anything come back to you ? sharon : no . and it 's really frustrating because i keep trying to remember . nick : well , do n't push it , sharon . sharon : but what if it 's something important ? what if it 's something that we need to know now and that 's why your dad was trying to get to the bottom of it ? nick : no . no , nothing justifies what my dad has done . sharon : what if he was trying to protect you ? nick : he was not trying to protect me . he was trying to control me and dictate my life the way he always has . now , he 's done some pretty despicable things to make that happen , but him using cassie to try and drive you crazy , it 's -- [ sighs ] sharon : where are you going ? nick : i 'm gon na go handle this once and for all . [ scene_break ] victor : there 's no way to make things right where sharon is concerned , all right ? by her own admission , she has a secret that she 's keeping from nicholas , a secret that would hurt him . cassie : i know . victor : really ? how much do you know ? what are you keeping from me ? cassie : nothing . i would n't do that . victor : really ? you 'd do anything to benefit yourself , would n't you ? cassie : the only way i 'd benefit is by giving you what you want . victor : you were incapable of doing that . cassie : give me another chance . victor : give you another chance to screw up things even more ? cassie : i can help you . with nick , i can try to smooth things over between you two . the fact that i look like cassie has got to count for something , does n't it ? victor : listen to me very carefully . do n't ever approach nicholas again . do n't ever approach anyone in my family again . if i find out that you have , you 'll be in the custody of the portland pd in no time at all . cassie : it wo n't come to that . i can think of better ways to spend the money you paid me than on a defense attorney . victor : good . so we do understand each other . keep it that way .

[ scene_break ] devon : you know what we could do ? we could invite abby and tyler to come along . maybe even convince lily and cane to join us . lily could tell us how the youth dance program is doing downtown at the community center . i kicked in some money to help fund the thing and put lily in charge 'cause i figured it would , uh , it would give kids who do n't have access to those kind of programs , you know , a chance to get involved , 'cause god knows i did n't have those opportunities growing up . esmerelda : i 'd love to spend time with lily . we could , uh , swap modeling stories . like that time i had that swimsuit shoot on that island in the middle of nowhere . can you imagine ? no bars , no shopping , no phone service . ugh , i thought i was going to die . [ sighs ] devon : yeah , that sounds tragic . um , you know what ? before we go , i need to talk to the chef . esmerelda : oh , sure . i have to go change anyway . devon : okay . esmerelda : bye . see you later . devon : see you . hey , can i get one more drink ? thanks .

[ scene_break ] avery : well , you just proved my point with that observation . ian : proven what point ? avery : well , the fact that dylan n walk right by you without even flinching . he seems more than capable of controlling his emotions , so you can stop coming in here and trying to provoke him . ian : i come here because i like the coffee and because it 's a good place to meet people . summer : or recruit people . ian : that 's my job . i 'm in the self - help business . men and women who 've lost their way approach me for guidance . like that young man right over there or like you . summer : i lost my way the minute that i started listening to you . and trust me , that wo n't happen again . ian : if you change your mind , you have my card . ladies , lovely seeing you again . avery : ugh . summer : oh , my god . he is such a creep ! i ca n't believe i ever bought into his bull ! dylan : a lot of people bought into it , including your grandmother . he talks a great game . summer : i just wish that everyone would finally see him for who he really is so he can stop ruining lives . dylan : yeah , me , too . avery : i 'm surprised you did n't throw him out of here . dylan : if ian gets a reaction out of me , he 's in control . i 'm not giving him the power .

[ scene_break ] victor : you 're setting yourself up for a fall , son , by investing in sharon again . she 's keeping a secret from you . nick : so you decide to get sharon out of my life for good by playing god , resurrecting cassie from the grave and convincing sharon that she was losing her mind and forcing her to commit herself ? victor : i did n't force her to do a damn thing . nick : directly or indirectly , you are to blame for this . do you have any idea how hard it was for me to explain to faith that her mother was in the hospital and that she might not make it out ? nikki : how could you put that poor child through that ? victor : your children are better off without their mother . nick : you do n't get to decide that ! she is their mother ! you ca n't erase her from their lives , nor from mine ! victor : will you finally wake up ? sharon is manipulating you , son ! she knows you 're vulnerable after avery walked out of your life and the paternity situation with summer ! she latched on to you like a leech ! she took advantage of your feelings ! do n't confuse that with love ! nick : i am not confused about the way i feel about sharon , and i 'm not confused about how i feel about you right now . i will never forgive you for this . victor : son -- nick : i am not your son . i do n't have a father anymore . victor : you have it your way , son . i will always be your father !

[ scene_break ] carly : if i 'm pregnant , i can wait a little while before i find out . olivia : carly , you told me that your ob / gyn said that you have a potentially dangerous condition . if you 're pregnant , you 're at risk for stroke or an embolism , right ? you ca n't full around with this . carly , this is serious stuff . carly : i know , okay ? i know , but the chances of me being pregnant are slim . olivia : yeah , slim -- slim , not nonexistent . you 've got all the signs and symptoms . you 're fainting all over the place . carly : look , i had a pregnancy scare last year and it freaked me out for about a week . it turned out to be nothing . i 'm not going through that again . olivia : okay , honey , you know what you 're doing , right ? you 're burying your head in the sand and you 're hoping that when you pull it out again , this whole this is going to magically disappear , but it does n't work that way . you 've got to face this and you 've got to deal with it . this is your health we 're talking about and potentially the health of your child , so -- carly : i have a thousand things on my plate . i 'll get around to it . thanks . [ scene_break ] claire : what 's the problem and who are you ? johnny : john zacchara . claire : as in brother of claudia zacchara -- ric : claire , claire , claire , where did you put the dvd ? claire : in the safe as you requested . it was logged in according to walton- bigelow 's standard procedure . johnny : well , it looks like the two of you have a little problem on your hands . let me know if i can help . ric : how can the dvd be gone ? claire : i do n't even know how the safe got open . only the senior partners have a combination . ric : i need for you to get a log on every single person , every visitor , who came into this office today . my life depends on finding that dvd . claire : ric , what in the world is going on ? [ scene_break ] claudia : nothing , i 'm just taking some aspirin for this horrible headache that i have . sonny 's not here , by the way . i can tell him you came by . jason : i 'm actually here to see you . claudia : what ? should i be flattered ? you have n't exactly been real friendly to me lately . jason : ric claims you were working with jerry jacks and ian devlin . claudia : it 's completely ridiculous . i should n't be surprised , though . i mean , come on , we 're talking about a pathological liar -- jason : hold on . he seemed pretty convinced that you were responsible for michael getting shot . claudia : are you kidding me with this ? jason : no , he insisted right here that we play that dvd . claudia : yeah , but there was nothing on the dvd , jason . the dvd was blank . you know what ? i ca n't believe this . i thought that you would be the one person on the planet who would not believe ric 's lie . [ scene_break ] patrick : okay , i just got of the phone with i.p . they 're trying to figure out how your grandmother gained access to the p.a . system . nikolas : we need to double up on security , make sure she has n't tampered with anything else around here . patrick : yeah , now , i know your family has a history of -- nikolas : psychosis ? yeah , i know . patrick : well , i was going to say `` aberrant behavior . `` but do you have any idea why she would target the hospital ? nikolas : i know that she does n't need a reason . she 's doing this because she can . alexis : excuse me . may i have a minute ? i think i know what helena is up to and it 's about rebecca . [ scene_break ] luke : i suppose if i were a typical family man , whatever the hell that is , i would be very happy with a son who led a more productive life than me , who gave more than he took , who had ethics and morality . tracy : sounds like lucky . luke : yes , it does , does n't it ? tracy : so you love your son , but you have nothing in common . luke : i 'm afraid that 's pretty much it . tracy : and then along comes ethan lovett right out of the clear blue sky . luke : i look at ethan and i see a little bit of me there , and all i can think about are the possibilities . tracy : luke , you 're scaring me when you talk like this . luke : why ? you 're the one who threw him at me . tracy : not really . do n't you get that this kid could be pulling the biggest scam of your life on you and you 're looking the other way ? luke : oh , spanky , do n't underestimate me . ethan : there 's no need for the defense . mrs. spencer has already decided that i 'm rotten to the core . tracy : i would be so happy to change my mind if you could prove me wrong . ethan : and how might i do that ? tracy : let 's start with , where are you from and why are you here ? luke : he 's already answered those questions . tracy : his answers are vague . the only slip he 's made is his connection to holly sutton . ethan : you say that like it 's a bad thing . tracy : holly sutton is a known con artist . and if she sent you here , it ca n't be for anything good . ethan : you know , i find this fascinating , mrs. spencer . the only reason you 've turned against me is because i once knew luke 's english rose . [ scene_break ] carly : yeah , i just did n't feel like going to the reopening ceremony , answering a whole bunch of questions about michael . well , the pediatric head injury unit is open , so that 's the most important thing , right ? [ olivia clears throat ] carly : yeah , jax , i 'm still here . no , i 'm good , i 'm good . and you know , we 're really busy . everything 's great here . there is something i have to tell you . i miss you and i love you so much and i ca n't wait for you to come home . okay . see you soon . olivia : okay , i 'm not saying that a lie of omission is always a bad thing . sometimes it 's better than the truth , but , carly , come on . jax has to know about this . carly : he will when he comes home . i 'm not going to give him that kind of information on a cell phone when he 's halfway around the world , especially when i 'm probably not even pregnant . [ scene_break ] claire : you asked me to write up a document stating that in the event of your death , the dvd would go to your brother sonny . ric : it was an insurance policy in more ways than one . claire : what do you mean ? ric : it 's complicated , claire . claire : we 're protected by attorney / client privilege here . and , ric , as your friend , i would never breathe a word . ric : all right , the dvd proves that sonny 's wife claudia is responsible for his son michael 's shooting . claire : wow , that 's explosive information . ric : yeah , look , michael 's in a coma and he 's not expected to recover . sonny would give anything to know the truth . claire : it never occurred to you to go to the police ? ric : i was using the dvd as leverage , okay ? now i need it to save my life . sonny 's half convinced that i 'm the one who put his son michael in a coma . [ scene_break ] claudia : i 'm sorry . i 'm not mad at you . i 'm just mad at myself . jason : for what ? claudia : you know , for getting involved with ric in the first place because it was stupid and incredibly naive . jason : no one would ever call you naive , claudia . claudia : i thought i could use it to my advantage . he was smart and obviously he knew all the players and i was n't exactly in anybody 's good favor . my father hated me . sonny did n't trust me . my brother did n't want anything to do with the organization . so i went through ric . i befriended him . i slept with him . jason : ric worked for your father . you knew this guy was a liar and a manipulator . claudia : i know , but i thought that i could use that to my advantage , work him . turns out , he worked me instead . jason : yeah , you keep saying that . claudia : look , you know better than anybody that ric 's entire life is about his obsession with sonny . you know that . the minute that sonny and i got together , it really hit the fan . ric started pressuring me about keeping that affair going . it was like once i married sonny , it made him want me even more . and then he also was trying to get me to give him all of sonny 's secrets . business secrets , personal secrets , whatever i could get my hands . jason : what was he going to do with it ? claudia : what do you think he was going to do with it ? he was going to give it to the cops and put sonny away for the rest of is life , preferably with you in cell next to him , at which point ric was going to take over the organization . jason : did you give him the information ? claudia : no , i did n't give him the -- of course i did n't give him the information . ric vowed revenge . that 's what this is . he 's putting his crime on me . i 'm not the reason that michael got shot and i 'm not responsible for it , ric is . jason : michael was shot by accident . the intended victim was sonny . claudia : which is why it makes perfect sense that ric ordered the hit . jason : no , no , at the time , you had a lot more reason to want sonny dead than ric . sonny kidnapped johnny . he beat him up . he tried to push your family out of port charles . claudia : right . that 's exactly why ric thinks he can pin it on me , but i had absolutely nothing to do with it . jason : it 's your word against ric 's . claudia : okay , so go on then . go on and find proof . that 's what you 're looking for right ? you 're looking for proof that you can pin this on me . so you go ahead and when you figure out that ric is guilty , then you 'll know that i 'm innocent . jason : you 're trying really hard to convince me right now . claudia : i am . you 're damn right i am , because michael 's lying in a coma because of something that had absolutely nothing to do with him and everything to do with the stupid adults in his life , and ric 's responsible . jason : okay , how do i know you 're not telling me exactly what i want to hear ? [ scene_break ] ric : michael was shot about a year ago in the corinthos / morgan coffee warehouse . the shooter was aiming for sonny , but then the bullet ricocheted and hit michael instead . claire : did they ever catch the shooter ? ric : yes , it was a doctor named ian devlin . he died in an altercation -- and i use that term loosely -- with sonny 's enforcer jason . it was suspected that he was n't acting alone , but it was never proved . claire : until you found him . ric : right , exactly . about a month ago , i found a dvd that jerry jacks sent to sonny 's wife claudia . in it , it reveals a conspiracy about the shooting , that it was all between ian devlin , jerry jacks , and claudia . claire : well , why did n't you tell your brother right away ? ric : it 's not important , okay , claire ? look , i 've never been a choir boy , you know that about me , but there was a substantial reward in it for me at the end . claire : hey , ric , look . i understand . i 'm here to help you , not to judge , okay ? ric : yeah , well , it 's nice , but i think i might be beyond help at this point . claire : okay , let 's take this step by step , okay ? now , how did you become a suspect in the shooting ? ric : well , sonny 's rabid enforcer jason hates my guts , you know ? he fully expects that i 'm the guilty party in this . claire : why did n't you just exonerate yourself by showing sonny this dvd ? ric : i tried , but it was blank and now the copy has been stolen out of the safe . claire , somebody wants me blamed for what happened to michael . [ scene_break ] carly : so how 's it going with the zoning board ? diane : well , they 're being sticky . i 've shown them the architectural renderings and assured them that you and jax are planning on building a house that will fit into the neighborhood both physically and aesthetically . carly : what 's the problem ? diane : the problem is the neighborhood association holds a tremendous amount of sway and is populated by anal retentive boneheads . carly : they do n't like our plans . diane : hence they are pressuring the zoning board to hold up your construction permits . carly : they ca n't do that . diane : they are . [ cell phone rings ] carly : hold on one second . hello ? hey , marty , what 's up ? yes , the convention is that week . they already have the whole ninth floor rented . no , the tile has to be done by then . you should be calling olivia with these questions . okay , thanks . sorry about that . where were we ? diane : the hold up of your construction permit . carly : yeah , make them approve our plans . i do n't understand . diane : all right , well , carly , i can certainly do that , but you do realize that i 'm a criminal litigator . and sending an attorney of my ilk to deal with building permits is a little like taking a private jet to buy a quart of milk . carly : or sending the sharks to fight the minnows . diane : well , yes , that , too . carly : jax and i really need to get into this house , okay ? diane : carly , can i ask what 's the reason for the sudden urgency ? carly ? carly , are you all right ? carly : i 'm fine . i just need to sit down for a minute . diane : please tell me that you are not seriously ill . [ scene_break ] patrick : hey , how are you doing ? robin : i 'm fine . why do you ask ? patrick : well , just with helena taking over the monitors and making those threats , i just thought maybe you might be a -- robin : what , shocked and frightened ? patrick : robin , you 've mentioned some of the terrible things she 's done in the past , and i know you have n't seen her in years and now she 's back , so -- robin : so you 're afraid , what , the postpartum is going make me so fragile ? patrick : that 's not what i said . robin : i 'm getting pretty good at reading between the lines . patrick : i 'm just trying to help here . robin : good . well , then why do n't you start treating me like the strong , capable person you 've always known instead of a basket case ? patrick : you 're right , my mistake . kelly : hey , robin , nothing like a visit from a board member 's criminally insane grandmother to liven things up , right ? robin : well , at least it distracted patrick . kelly : this does n't sound good . robin : i know . kelly , i have a question about recovering from postpartum depression . kelly : ask away . robin : well , dr. brown prescribed me some antidepressants , but i do n't like taking them . and you 're my ob / gyn , so i was hoping maybe you could prescribe me some alternate medication . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : hey . patrick : hey . elizabeth : i saw you talking to robin . is everything okay ? patrick : not even close . everything is always my fault , no matter what i do , no matter what i say . it 's like she 's looking for excuses to jump down my throat . elizabeth : you know that 's just the postpartum depression talking . patrick : elizabeth , she 's defensive about everything and i know why . she feels guilty about cheating on me with that guy in rochester . [ scene_break ] luke : i 'm disappointed in you , wife . if you are jealous because of my creative liaisons with english , that 's fine , but do n't take it out on the joey . tracy : do n't even dream of letting him off the hook . ethan : off what hook ? tracy : how well do you know holly sutton ? ethan : we shared a brief acquaintance while i was at a resort in australia . she was working a mark and i was working the bar . tracy : and when the name `` luke spencer `` came up , what then ? ethan : holly reminisced about some old stories , which i 'll euphemistically refer to as `` colorful , `` since we 're in mixed company . tracy : and she did tell you that he lived in port charles . luke : where are you going with this , wife ? tracy : are n't you curious as to what holly shared with him about you ? ethan : she shared an old poker trick that luke taught her . that 's about it . tracy : and you did n't cook up a con together ? luke : you are fishing without bait . tracy : am i ? or are holly and ethan fishing and you 're taking the bait ? lucky : dad ! helena 's back . [ scene_break ] nikolas : i need to hurry and get back to wyndemere . alexis : do you think helena 's waiting there ? nikolas : she says she 'll be contacting me . that 'd be the natural place to do it . alexis : well , if you need company , i 'm available . nikolas : no , that 's all right . she 's tried to kill you before . i do n't want to put you in danger . alexis : i 'm worried about you putting yourself in danger . nikolas : yeah , well , if i just vanish without a trace or manifest a completely different personality , do me a favor and look into it ? alexis : that 's not the trouble that i 'm talking about . helena has already made her move and it 's rebecca . nikolas : you do n't know that . alexis : nikolas , how else do you explain a woman who looks exactly like emily who just happens to end up in your proximity ? nikolas : you 're saying helena planted rebecca here in port charles ? alexis : yes , that 's exactly what i 'm saying . i do n't know how she did it , what she did -- plastic surgery , voodoo . somehow she put that girl right in your path , told her to act wary anytime anyone mentioned emily 's name , and for her to resist you if you tried to get close to her . nikolas : you think this is a manipulation , or what ? alexis : nikolas , anything this weird and unbelievable has helena 's name written all over it . nikolas : what about the cancer scare rebecca had ? alexis : what about it ? it 's perfect , perfect . ties you emotionally in with the same thing you shared with emily . nikolas : it 's far - fetched , even for helena . alexis : nothing is too far - fetched for helena . nikolas , listen to me . this whole rebecca thing has not made any sense from the beginning . it 's beyond coincidence . and she seems to have an explanation for all of it , none of which gel . you enter helena -- it all makes sense . nikolas : i do n't believe it . alexis : helena 's counting on that , nikolas . she 's counting on you to be so vulnerable that you believe rebecca 's story , but the truth is going to come out . rebecca is working for helena . and trust me , you will know that the minute she stops acting standoffish and starts to get close to you . [ scene_break ] luke : helena returns . how did she mark her territory this time ? lucky : she took over the hospital monitors during the hospital reopening , and she -- and she warned it would be nikolas 's last act of charity . luke : well , she enters with a threat . you 've got to admire her style . tracy : how can you make jokes about this ? luke : what am i supposed to do , run around in a blind panic ? tracy : no , luke , you 're supposed to find out what she wants and how to get rid of her . ethan : who 's helena ? luke : you 'll find out soon enough . lucky : listen , i was told that the quartermaines , they took rebecca back to your house . after all the times helena threatened emily , they 'd try to protect her . tracy : why am i not surprised ? they 're probably giving her the keys to the kingdom even as we speak . luke : hide your piggy bank , popsicle . ethan : why would rebecca be in danger from helena ? luke : it 's helena , and you 'll find out soon enough . as soon as the old lady shows up here , she 's going to regale you with the whole story . ethan : oh , she 's coming here ? luke : she always does . she 's crazy about me . [ ethan laughs ] luke : emphasis on crazy . we have this sick , psychosexual relationship that feeds on titillation , torture , scorpions , and piano wire . lucky : helena kidnapped me . she made everybody believe that i was dead . luke : yeah , she 's a very creative lunatic . you have to admire her imagination . lucky : why do i even bother ? ethan : that guy never gives you a break . luke : we 're going through a rough patch , lucky and i . ethan : why do you put up with this ? luke : i do n't know , maybe because he does n't share our high opinion of me . [ luke laughs ] luke : all right , let 's break out the top hooch . helena cassadine is a woman of refined taste . [ scene_break ] kelly : robin , you 're seeing dr. brown for postpartum depression . if she prescribes antidepressants , it 's her professional opinion that you need them . robin : well , it 's my professional opinion that i do n't . kelly : you 're not in a position to diagnose yourself . robin : kelly , i know there are other options . there 's natural remedies , diet -- kelly : you 're right , there are , but you have a treatment plan and you need to give it time to work . [ pager beeps ] kelly : i 've got to go . matt : hey , do you have time for a consult ? robin : well , that depends . do you actually need my input , or is this a charity request , just some way to keep your crazy sister - in - law busy ? matt : ouch . where did that come from ? robin : i can see it written all over your face . you think i 'm losing my mind . matt : no , robin , but maybe you think you are .

spinelli : i 'm jesting . i 'm sorry . that was terrible . in fact , georgie 's right here , just waiting for her mother . julian : first , i did n't know that there was a plan to kill lansing . he was only supposed to be used as leverage against sonny , period . second ... for the record , when you asked me if i knew where ric was , i was telling you the truth as i knew it at the time . alexis : semantics , really . julian : and , third ... most importantly , i do n't owe you any explanations anymore . ric : i ca n't just call elizabeth up and say , `` hey ! i 'm alive ! `` molly : no ! you need to go see her in person . ric : no , look -- it 's christmas eve . i 'm sure she 's got some plans with her family . hey , besides , i 'm only here 12 hours , and i want to spend it basking in the glow of my beautiful and amazing daughter , okay ? molly : well , your beautiful , amazing daughter thinks that you and elizabeth had something really good going on . she was destroyed when everything happened . she 'll be so happy to see you . ric : she 'll be happy to see me tomorrow or the next day . molly : you really want to wait another 48 hours to see her ?

a little elf made origami mistletoe . jason : mm - hmm . little elf is as talented as his mom . elizabeth : oh . but this little elf is n't nearly tall enough to put that up there by himself . jason : that little elf might have had a little help . patrick : you waiting for your turn to sit on santa 's lap ? sam : oh , no . i 'm good . but please go ahead . i think you should do it . no one will judge you . just do n't ask for a bb gun , because ... both : you 'll shoot your eye out . patrick : yeah . sam : [ chuckles ] patrick : no . you know , i already got my early christmas present when you said that you would forgive me for not telling you what i knew about jason . sam : well , that was a gift for me , too . patrick : that night in the er when i found out that you were held hostage by the gunman , i know that you were standing right in front of me , but i was very worried about you . sam : my life did kind of flash before my eyes . and you happened to be standing right in the center of everyone that i care about . patrick : i 'm happy you 're safe now . sam : yes . i am safe . i 'm just -- i 'm not sure elizabeth is . elizabeth : so , you helped cameron hang that mistletoe ? jason : he talked me into it . elizabeth : really ? jason : hey , he can be very persuasive . he 's like his mother . elizabeth : [ gasps ] jason : [ gasps ] besides , he had a notion emma was gon na come over , so ... elizabeth : oh , geez . my son , the romeo . jason : [ laughs ] yeah . oh , wait a minute . i 'm remembering something from before the accident . elizabeth : you are ?

i thought i would be waiting another six months , at least . spinelli : what transpired ? did the despicable judge just reverse his ridiculous decision ? maxie : yeah , just out of the blue . can you believe it ? spinelli : why ? what led to his enlightenment ? maxie : i have no idea . i mean , i feel like nathan might have had something to do with it . he swears he did n't , but i 'm not completely convinced . dr. obrecht : i was surprised when you asked for my help . you 're aware i sometimes utilize measures you might deem ... underhanded . nathan : i was desperate . i was determined that maxie would spend christmas with her daughter . dr. obrecht : and now she is . nathan : how did you do it ? how did you get judge walters to change his mind ? dr. obrecht : dr. quartermaine ? monica : they said you were looking for me . what do you want , dr. obrecht ? dr. obrecht : i found someone to replace you as chief of cardiology . a stellar candidate presented himself , and it would be in the hospital 's best interest for me to add him to the team . monica : excuse me . are you firing me ? what have i done ? dr. obrecht : it is what you have n't done . monica : what are you talking about ? what have n't i done ? dr. obrecht : let 's just say i motivated monica quartermaine , and she did what was necessary to coax her liebhaber into changing his mind about ms . jones . judge walters : for you , my dear . monica : thank you . judge walters : glad to see you back to your warm and wonderful self . monica : well , now that we have settled our differences , i am . judge walters : monica . there you are . monica : i 'm ... really -- really not in the mood . judge walters : since when ? seems to me like you 're always in the mood . monica : well , not anymore . judge walters : did i do something to offend you ? monica : let 's talk about maxie jones . judge walters : i saw the error of my ways . would you mind telling me why you felt so strongly about ms . jones ' situation ?

[ crying ] and it was so terrible that you had died . i did n't abandon you . ric : molly told me , too . elizabeth : it 's so -- i do n't understand . when detective west -- when he shot you because you escaped , none of that -- it was all staged ? ric : yeah . it was all an elaborate ruse so jerome would continue to think that his frame job worked . so , i went into witness protection . you got lied to . elizabeth : but you 're safe . you 're safe . ric : yeah . well , the past few months , i 've got to tell you , have been the worst months of my entire life .

[ sighs ] monica : well ... i know how devastating losing a child can be ... all too well . judge walters : yeah . maxie jones went through life breaking all the rules , monica , and leaving a wake of destruction behind her . i could n't let that go . i knew it was n't gon na bring kayla back , but i had to teach maxie a lesson . maybe it 'll help make her a better parent . maxie : so , these are from grandma felicia and grandpa mac , and a few of them are from dante and lulu , and then the rest are from me . i bought you so many cute things from this adorable french children 's boutique , and i 'm so glad i bought the stuff , 'cause she seems to have an amazing sense of fashion . spinelli : georgie seems to love donning adorable clothes , just like her mother . she has definite opinions on how she 's dressed .

spinelli : why ? what led to his enlightenment ? maxie : i have no idea . i mean , i feel like nathan might have had something to do with it . he swears he did n't , but i 'm not completely convinced . dr. obrecht : i was surprised when you asked for my help . you 're aware i sometimes utilize measures you might deem ... underhanded . nathan : i was desperate . i was determined that maxie would spend christmas with her daughter . dr. obrecht : and now she is . nathan : how did you do it ? how did you get judge walters to change his mind ? dr. obrecht : dr. quartermaine ? monica : they said you were looking for me . what do you want , dr. obrecht ? dr. obrecht : i found someone to replace you as chief of cardiology . a stellar candidate presented himself , and it would be in the hospital 's best interest for me to add him to the team . monica : excuse me . are you firing me ? what have i done ? dr. obrecht : it is what you have n't done . monica : what are you talking about ? what have n't i done ? dr. obrecht : let 's just say i motivated monica quartermaine , and she did what was necessary to coax her liebhaber into changing his mind about ms . jones . judge walters : for you , my dear . monica : thank you . judge walters : glad to see you back to your warm and wonderful self . monica : well , now that we have settled our differences , i am . judge walters : monica . there you are . monica : i 'm ... really -- really not in the mood . judge walters : since when ?

[ crying ] and it was so terrible that you had died . i did n't abandon you . ric : molly told me , too . elizabeth : it 's so -- i do n't understand . when detective west -- when he shot you because you escaped , none of that -- it was all staged ? ric : yeah . it was all an elaborate ruse so jerome would continue to think that his frame job worked . so , i went into witness protection . you got lied to . elizabeth : but you 're safe . you 're safe . ric : yeah . well , the past few months , i 've got to tell you , have been the worst months of my entire life . [ sighs ] i wrote you a bunch of letters . i even tried to pick up the phone and call you . of course , what did i have to do ? i had to burn the letters , and i had to hang up the phone and just ... i 'm sorry . i just had to stare out the window , and just -- and miss you . elizabeth : i missed you so much , too . i just did n't think missing you would end , that you 'd come back . ric : you know , before my , uh -- before my life fell apart , i remember holding you in my arms . we were in bed , and we were about to start our new relationship . i mean , that 's -- that 's the one thought that stayed in my mind and kept me going through all of it . my feelings have not changed , okay ? and i 'm hoping that , you know , maybe we can go back to where we were -- you know , start again ? alexis : you 're right . since i cut this off , i do n't have any right to confront you .

[ sighs ] monica : well ... i know how devastating losing a child can be ... all too well . judge walters : yeah . maxie jones went through life breaking all the rules , monica , and leaving a wake of destruction behind her . i could n't let that go . i knew it was n't gon na bring kayla back , but i had to teach maxie a lesson . maybe it 'll help make her a better parent . maxie : so , these are from grandma felicia and grandpa mac , and a few of them are from dante and lulu , and then the rest are from me . i bought you so many cute things from this adorable french children 's boutique , and i 'm so glad i bought the stuff , 'cause she seems to have an amazing sense of fashion . spinelli : georgie seems to love donning adorable clothes , just like her mother . she has definite opinions on how she 's dressed .

[ scene_break ] philip : that 's kinda weird . kate : what is ? philip : i never thought i 'd see you two getting along . let alone happy as hell . especially because something really terrible just happened . kate : oh , shh , shh , shh . just keep your voice down . philip : you do know that chloe 's accident could 've been a horrible tragedy , do n't you ? melanie : of course we do . kate : oh , come on , the diva took a dive off the pier . obviously , she thought she was in one of her operas . philip : well , obviously , you do n't give a damn that she almost died . but that would 've been a wish come true for you . you would 've been thrilled if chloe had drowned , would n't you ?

brook lynn : i 'm not trying to break up dante and lulu , and to be honest , i 'm offended that you even suggested it . michael : look , i may not know you very well , brook , but i am an expert on my mom . she was furious at dante and lulu when i got sent to prison -- dante for being the catalyst and lulu for taking a side . and nobody holds a grudge tighter or closer than my mom does . brook lynn : right , so you say . but what i 'm saying is that people can grow and people can change . michael : yeah , well , i heard you on the phone . you were ordering very expensive furniture . and are n't you supposed to be broke ? look , brook , just admit it . my mom hired you to break up dante and lulu , did n't she ? brook lynn : okay , how do i put this one ? um , michael , i know that you just got out of prison . okay , i get that . you have murder charges , you have cover ups , it makes perfect sense to me why you would think that everything was a conspiracy . but just think about this for a second . it 's kind of crazy . it 's really far out , is n't it ? michael : no . it makes perfect sense . my mom is relentless when she 's set on payback . she probably made you an offer you ca n't refuse , and you know what , i do n't know , maybe you have your own reasons for wanting to hurt dante and lulu . lulu : well , i got ta give it to you , brook , no grass grows under your feet . working michael is n't going to further your progress with dante . you still have to get through me . i 'm not budging . [ scene_break ] dante : how is he ? maya : well , he caught a bullet . dead center chest , point blank range . dante : so did i , and i 'm alive . mind you , my mother showed up , called the ambulance . i do n't know how long johnny was lying in the street bleeding . maya : well , there 's extensive internal damage . and despite how successful surgery went , there 's an excellent chance johnny could die . which basically means your father is up the river . not a paddle in sight . [ scene_break ] sonny : you got good news ? diane : oh , i wish i did . johnny zacchara is unconscious . actually , he 's in critical condition . so even if he wanted to back up your story , which i highly doubt , he ai n't talkin ' . claire walsh was thoughtful enough to come forward with a recording which proves pre - meditation -- sonny : it was self defense ! diane : on your part . ahem . there is no indication that john zacchara had any kind of weapon or that he threatened you in any way . so , no , sonny . good news ? no , there 's no good news here . you are looking at an attempted murder charge with a very iffy shot at bail . no pun intended . [ scene_break ] [ sam laughs ] [ gunfire ] jason : you okay ? sam : yeah . looks like lopez and his family found us after all . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : but do n't you worry , i am going to make this work . because being with nikolas and spencer is good for all of you , they 're your family . and i guess wyndemere can be kind of fun . your brothers feel like they 're living in a castle , and nikolas has been extremely gracious with all of us , incredibly forgiving of me . i 'd be the most selfish person in the world to let my discomfort stand in the way of all of this . it may never be my home , but it 's part of your legacy and you should know about it . and now i 'm going to stop rambling and let you take a proper nap . what do you say , hmm ? nikolas : you should see the boys , they 're having a blast . the three of them are taking turns riding nip it all over the place . elizabeth : aww . i 'm sure they 're loving that . nikolas : yeah , they 're getting along like they 've been doing it their whole lives . elizabeth : well , congratulations , it 's called a family . you finally have one . nikolas : yeah . how are you and aiden ? elizabeth : we 're enjoying our leisurely morning . nikolas : good , good , i 'm glad to hear that . elizabeth : yeah , we 're really enjoying ourselves . [ scene_break ] maya : so you were hoping to question johnny ? dante : yeah , i need to get a statement from him as soon as he can make one . maya : well , that might be a while . johnny 's not in good shape . dante : yeah , i heard you . um , unconscious the whole time ? maya : he woke up briefly in the e.r . dante : did he say anything ? maya : i said we 'd fix him up . he wished me luck . dante : anything else ? maya : he had asked me to call your mother , and then changed his mind . dante : all right , well , i wo n't touch that one for obvious reasons . did he talk to anyone else ? maya : ethan . dante : you spent some time with johnny , right ? maya : some . mostly when johnny 's with ethan . i mean , i 'm certainly no authority . dante : well , maybe you have an insight and you just do n't realize it . maya : what are you asking me , exactly ? dante : what does your gut tell you about johnny ? maya : [ sighs ] well , he 's reckless , okay . johnny hates sonny with a blinding passion . and that turns him cold and scary . but he also has a soft side , too . i 've seen him with ethan , olivia , kristina , okay . and despite all the inconvenient mob stuff , i think johnny 's a good guy . olivia : yeah , they do n't come any better . [ sighs ] how is he ? maya : he 's critical . maya : i 'll leave you alone with him . olivia : thank you . dante : thanks for your help . olivia : you just could n't listen , could you ? i know i should have tired harder to get through to him . dante : oh , no , no , you 're not going to blame yourself for this . he chose the path that got him here . olivia : i do n't really want to hear that right now , okay , dante ? [ sighs ] i need you to fight . okay ? you 're gon na get through this . i 'm right here with you . [ scene_break ] sonny : i hate it when you get this defeatist attitude . diane : defeatist ? [ chuckles ] all right , well , let 's go over the facts , shall we ? since that 's actually all i am able to deal with . you have admitted to shooting johnny zacchara and then casually strolling away into the night , leaving the man to die on the sidewalk . now , you claim it was self defense , but there is no evidence to corroborate that , since johnny zacchara was not found with a weapon , and he has tested negative for gunshot residue . then , to tighten the screws just a little more , your favorite federal prosecutor , and mine , claire walsh , has decided to help the authorities by producing additional recording of you saying that you plan to ... wait for it ... plead self defense after shooting johnny in cold blood . sonny : i 've got ta tell you , this time i am innocent . i just got ta find a way to prove it . and it would be nice if my attorney would help me instead of giving me another litany of my sins . diane : oh , believe me . believe me . i plan to defend you to the very best of my abilities . that 's my job . it is also my job to make sure you have a clear perception of where you stand in the eyes of the law . sonny : i understand . get it done . just figure out a way to prove that i 'm telling the truth . call jason . tell him to put spinelli to work . there might be a surveillance tape that has johnny holding a gun . diane : spinelli i can talk to . jason seems to have disappeared . [ scene_break ] [ gunshots ] sam : i guess lopez missed his contraband and went looking . jason : when they found the van , they must have realized we were on foot . sam : well , it could n't have been too hard to do that . [ gunshot ] jason : judging by the amount of gunfire , there 's about 5 or 6 guys . just stay down . jason : see , if they know i 'm armed , it might slow them down enough for us to come up with a plan . sam : jason , we are trapped and outgunned ! i do n't think a plan is going to help right now . jason : we 'll figure something out . [ scene_break ] nikolas : sarah ? hey , it 's nikolas . i 'm good , i 'm good , how are you ? good , that 's good . listen , elizabeth and aiden , they 're great . we got that onesie thing or whatever it is that you sent out , that was great , thank you . the reason i 'm calling is , uh , well , elizabeth finally agreed to bring the boys out to wyndemere and stay for a while . i know , do n't get too excited . she puts up a good front , but she really does n't want to be here . so i was kinda hoping that , i do n't know , that you would give us a graceful out like call your sister and invite her for a visit . yeah , well , is that what i want ? no . i want elizabeth to be happy and that just ca n't happen here . [ scene_break ] brook lynn : so what are you ? the conversation police ? look , lulu , you want me to write this down , 'cause i can leave this posted on your door . michael 's my cousin , too . and i do n't need your permission to talk to him . so if i want to talk to him , i get to talk to him . i 'm not even sure why you 're here , because if you and dante are so in love , then there 's nothing i can do to possibly ruin it , right ? lulu : right . that is my point . brook lynn : well , dante was my friend long before you , and he will be my friend long after you 're gone . lulu : oh , okay , so you missed the part where i said i 'm not going anywhere . brook lynn : no , actually , it 's just that those are the famous words of all of his ex - girlfriends . lulu : wow , brook , you really are such a 2-faced bitch . brook lynn : yeah . anything you want to do about it ? michael : okay , guys , look , you do n't want to fight about dante in kelly 's . let 's just all calm down , okay ? and , brook , why do n't you just do what lulu says and just back off ? brook lynn : i 've thought about it , and my answer is ... no . i 'll see you around , lulu . [ scene_break ] olivia : i knew this day was coming . and i tried and i tried to warn you . and i know you heard me , 'cause you could n't really miss it . i was shouting it so loud from the rafters . but you just did n't care . sonny was determined to kill you , and you were determined to make him try . there was just no way that this was going to end well . for either one of you . and here we are . you just never gave a damn about your own life , johnny . you know , he plays the piano . dante : yep . olivia : yeah . he 's wonderful . a real , a real artist . i 'm not kidding . you should ask him to play for you sometime . it 's just so ... beautiful , it 'll break your heart . that 's the john zacchara that i know . that 's the one that i get to spend time with ; the sensitive artist , expressing his whole life 's pain , fingers to the keyboard . dante : look , mom , i get that you love johnny . and he may be as wonderful as all the things you 're saying he 's wonderful at , but , uh , his life is total chaos , okay ? and once this sonny thing blows over , i guarantee you , within 2 days , he 'll be having a death match with somebody else . you deserve better . olivia : there is no better . [ scene_break ] sonny : what do you mean , jason disappeared ? diane : well , the last time i saw him , jason seemed concerned that sam was going to do something ill advised in an attempt to help him , and my guess is that 's exactly what happened . so now jason is gone off after sam , and sam has disappeared as well . sonny : he 's not answering his cell phone ? diane : and his suv has apparently been abandoned . sonny : it 's not like jason to vanish at this time . diane : okay , well , we do n't have the luxury right now , sonny , of worrying about jason . you have to think about yourself . sonny : i want to talk to dante . diane : no , that 's a bad idea . dante is a cop who hates you . sonny : listen , i know that , but he 's my son . diane : yes ! the son that you shot , point blank in the chest ! does that sound familiar , sonny ? it 's the same scenario that you are now in with johnny ! and we in jurisprudence call that a pattern of behavior . the cops use it all the time to trip up criminals . believe me , detective falconeri is the last person you want to be talking to . [ scene_break ] sam : it was thoughtful of santos to leave the shotgun in the van . jason : yeah , we got ta be ready , but we got ta conserve ammo . sam : yeah , that 's a good idea , since i 'm absolutely no use to anybody at this angle . [ gunshots ] sam : why now ? why now , when this is the one time that i have everything in my life to live for ? jason : we 're going to get through this , i promise you . sam : yeah , but we would n't even be in this mess if it were n't for me trying to get evidence against santos . jason : you were just trying to help me . sam : no , jason , i was trying to keep you with me . [ gunshot ] sam : i told myself the last thing i wanted was to see you locked up again , but this is not what i had in mind . [ scene_break ] patrick : robin , wait . listen to me . i know how much i hurt you -- robin : stop . you have no idea how betrayed i feel right now . do you even remember how this whole thing started ? probably not , because you would n't be doing this right now . well , i 'll tell you . you were relentless . you were determined to tear down every single wall that i had , even though you knew they were there for a very good reason . i did n't even like you . i told you to go away , just leave me alone . but you wore me down and you made me believe that you loved me . patrick : i do love you . robin : just shut up , i 'm talking . you made me believe that my heart had found its home . and so we got married and we had a baby . i was n't supposed to be a placeholder for lisa until she came back . patrick : robin ... i made a mistake , okay . there 's nothing i can do to change that . but one stupid night does n't negate the fact that i love you -- robin : will you stop saying that ? like it helps . like that means anything . like you even know what love means . you 're a liar and a cheat , and the sight of you makes me sick ! steve : all right , that 's enough . that 's enough . you do n't want to do this . you do n't want to do this here , really . robin : i 'm sorry . patrick : robin ... [ scene_break ] lisa : i ca n't believe i 'm in a police station actually lodging a complaint . lucky : well , you must believe you have reason to be concerned . lisa : well , precisely . obviously , it 's embarrassing to admit that i slept with patrick . [ sighs ] i hate clichés . i feel like the old girlfriend who got sucked into the past and had an affair with a now married ex . lucky : yeah , well , they call them clichés for a reason . i mean , you and patrick and robin all work together in a highly stressful environment , and that kind of proximity can lead to this sort of thing if you 're not careful . lisa : well , i mean , if i can offer any sort of justification , it 's that patrick and i were pretty serious back in college . and i moved here , and when we were together again , things just felt familiar . you know , we fell into our old , natural rhythms . and then robin left the country , and nature took its course . and what we did , it was totally wrong . and both patrick and i betrayed robin , and she has every right to be furious . but , in threatening me the way that she did , it seemed too real . so , yeah , i 'm concerned . [ scene_break ] cameron : mom , can i have a pony ? elizabeth : no , baby . cameron : why not ? elizabeth : because we do n't have any place to put a pony . spencer : do n't worry . you can ride nippit whenever you want . cameron : i love it here . i want to stay forever and ever . elizabeth : well , one day at a time , okay ? but we 're having fun , right ? everybody 's bonding -- [ cell phone rings ] elizabeth : hey , it 's my sister . excuse me for a minute . hey , what 's going on ? nikolas : so who 's up for swimming ? all : me ! nikolas : all right , let 's go . let 's go get our trunks on , come on . elizabeth : yeah ? nikolas : let 's go , come on . elizabeth : really , when ? [ scene_break ] dante : can i talk to you for a minute ? look , he 's not going anywhere , neither are we . i just want your attention for a minute . olivia : yeah . dante : [ sighs ] sometimes i look at you , okay , i see this face i 've been looking at my whole life . and my heart gets so full and my throat closes up . getting older is giving me a greater appreciation of who you are , okay . and a deeper awareness of just how lucky i am to have you as my mother . and i know you sacrificed everything for me . olivia : oh , come here . being a mother was not a sacrifice . it was the greatest thing that i will ever do . and i loved every second of it . honey , do n't get me wrong , i love all the praise . but where are we going with this ? dante : you deserve the best of everything . okay ? and i just do n't think you 're going to get it from this guy . olivia : honey , i appreciate the sentiment and where you 're coming from , i really do . but me and johnny , it 's just not your call . okay ? you 're a grown man now . with a life of your own . and it 's time for me to have a life of my own , too . okay , and i get to choose who 's in it . and i choose johnny . now honey , i am really sorry if that makes you unhappy , but you know what , i tried it your way . i did . i pushed him away and i gave him ultimatums . me or the mob , me or sonny , vendetta against sonny . and you know , all that got me was sad and lonely and ... and missing the only man that ever really made me happy . so now it 's not on me to judge john and judge his choices . it 's just on me to love him . dante : well , i guess that 's that . olivia : yeah . dante : better than sonny , i guess . olivia : oh , freakin ' sonny . i guess i got ta know the truth , huh ? did sonny really shoot john unarmed ? dante : honestly , ma , at this point , i have no idea . [ scene_break ] [ gunfire ] sam : what even am i doing ? if putting weight on this ankle is our only way out of here -- oww ! jason : okay , stop . stop . sam . do not try that again . sam : it 's just so frustrating ! jason : i know that it is . but that 's how it is right now . running is out of the question . sam : what are we going to do , wait here and just wait for them to come for us ? jason : yeah . lopez 's guys ca n't shoot forever . they 're going to run out of ammo or -- [ gunshots ] jason : okay . the best strategy is just to stay quiet , let them think that we 're out of ammo or we slipped out the back . and once they come in , we 'll just start picking them off .

'cause you know how she is . shy and sometimes and it comes off as being aloof . so she 's asked if i would come visit her . bring the boys . you know , in a casual , no pressure sort of way . nikolas : right , right . and with sarah , casually usually means that she tried really hard not to beg . elizabeth : yeah , exactly . nikolas : well , then you should go . elizabeth : well , i ca n't . nikolas : why ? elizabeth : spencer is loving having the boys here , and jake and cameron are having the time of their lives , and you are spending time , quality time with aiden . it would n't be fair to just uproot everyone . nikolas : i know , but you said yourself that sarah 's on the other side of the country , trying to start a new life alone . you know , she 'd never ask you for anything , which means she probably really needs you . besides , after everything that 's been happening here lately , it would probably be good for you to get away for a while . elizabeth : that part does sound tempting . nikolas : then go . elizabeth : you know , i 'd be taking aiden with me . nikolas : yes , i know , and i will miss him . but he needs to get to know his aunt , too . it 's all right , spencer and i will be here when you get back . go on , i insist . go . elizabeth : okay . okay , i 'll go . nikolas : great . great , well , then let me make the arrangements . i will make sure that you and the boys have the best possible experience . elizabeth : you 've been so good to us . nikolas : i 'll miss you . [ scene_break ] lucky : here you go . lisa : thank you . lucky : listen , i have to admit to a certain amount of bias . i 've known robin most of my life , and i have to say , i find her to be an extraordinary human being who shows grace under pressure . however , uh , i know the kind of anger that adultery can set off . and i assume you have no reason to lie . lisa : absolutely none . lucky : so what exactly do you want from the department ? do you want a restraining order , or ... lisa : um ... you know , i thought i wanted that when i came in , but talking to you has kind of served as a cooling off period . i 'm starting to think that legal action might be a bit premature , and it 'll probably exacerbate the situation . not to mention that robin and i need to figure out a way to co- exist in the hospital and things are already pretty tense . i mean , it might be impossible for her to stay x - number of feet away from me . lucky : so you do n't want a restraining order , then ? lisa : no , you know , i 'm going to hold off now . and with any luck , the waters will clear and , uh , no further action will be necessary . at least you know what 's going on in case , god forbid , anything should happen . okay , you know what , thank you so much for your time . i really appreciate it . lucky : that 's what we 're here for . lisa : okay .

[ scene_break ] patrick : robin , please do n't shut down on us . robin : you shut us down , not me . patrick : i made a mistake ... robin : a mistake . a mistake , really ? what you did was so much bigger than that . what happened earlier , me screaming at the top of my lungs , telling everyone at the hospital our personal business ? that was not me . it was like this out of body experience where i could feel it coming . i knew that i had to ride the wave because i could n't stop it . i do n't want to be that person . that 's what your betrayal did to me . i just ... i refuse to act like that . patrick : well , you 're hurt because you 're angry . you hurt because you care . because you 're invested in our marriage , and -- robin : can you please just give me enough courtesy and respect to get out of my face until i finish packing your things ? please . [ scene_break ] sam : did i ever mention that i hate quietly waiting to be killed . jason : what are you talking -- you 're not going to be killed . and neither am i . we 're going to finish this and we 're going to go home . sam : you sound so sure , i almost believe you . jason : look , i do n't like the idea that you tried to take on santos lopez by yourself , but i get that you did it because you love me . but we 're stuck in here because i pulled up the van . sam : do n't do that , jason . do n't blame yourself . let 's just focus on getting out of here safe , okay ? jason : that works for me . sam : good , me , too . [ gunfire ] [ scene_break ] dante : you know , i find myself wanting to believe you . i went to the hospital to question johnny hoping he 'd back you up . that was wishful thinking , but i thought i 'd indulge . then my mother shows up . this quiet , dignified pain , like she knew the drill . like she knew she had to stay strong for johnny . and then i realized it 's because she 'd been there before . at my bedside . when her son was shot , unarmed , point blank . sonny : totally different situation . totally different situation . dante : that 's only in your mind , is it . you just decided to shoot , once again , a guy who could n't defend himself . i 'll never forget the look on your face that day . the coldness in your eyes , the grim resolve . the lack of any emotion whatsoever . all i have to do is think of that day , and i know you could have shot johnny unarmed without even blinking . sonny : you think i did n't learn anything from shooting you ? you 're wrong . i learned one of the biggest lessons of my life . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : spencer , thank you for being such a perfect host . spencer : it was fun . elizabeth : [ laughs ] and once again , i thank you for being a miracle worker . my head is spinning so fast from how you put this all together . nikolas : well , once in a great while , the cassadine fortune is actually a good thing . cameron : when can we come back ? nikolas : well , you can come back any time you want , buddy . but right now you have to be a man and help your mom take care of aunt sarah and aiden . can you do that for me ? cameron : yeah . nikolas : all right . elizabeth : all right , well , we better go before we miss our flight . nikolas : all right . elizabeth : spencer , take the boys out to say good - bye to alfred , okay ? go on , jake , you go with spencer . nikolas : go with your brothers . okay . okay , so off on another travel adventure . this one will be better this time , i promise . elizabeth : i 'll send you pictures every day , if you want . nikolas : yeah , i want you to , that would be great . elizabeth : okay . nikolas : all right , bye . bye . elizabeth : bye , spence . see you soon . nikolas : oh , boy . spencer : i wish they could stay longer . nikolas : yeah , me , too . it would have been nice having them here , would n't it ? well , you 'll find as you get older that sometimes you just have to love with an open hand , you know ? and hope . [ scene_break ] patrick : i 'll do anything you ask me to do . but i 'm not giving up on our marriage . i wo n't do it . you and emma mean the world to me . and you and i love each other . and i firmly believe underneath all the pain and anger , our love is still alive . it 's going to have to take time to nurture and handle with care . robin , listen to me . there 's too much at stake to just let it go . you know , maybe if it was just the two of us , i could give you some time . but we 're a family now , and emma deserves both of us . we can work through this , okay . will you just ... robin , i 'll do whatever it takes . just give me another chance . [ scene_break ] steve : all i 'm saying is , it might be a good idea to take some time off . lisa : okay , i have no intention of running away just because robin felt it necessary to tell the world that i slept with her husband . okay , i do what i do , and i do n't really care much what other people think or if they like it . unless you 're saying that there 's some sort of problem with my work . steve : no . no , of course not . you 're one of my best . but patrick and robin -- lisa : oh , my god . [ scene_break ] sam : jason , how much longer are we going to have to lay low ? jason : i thought they would come in by now . sam : at least we 're together . jason : that 's all that matters . [ scene_break ] sonny : i thought i had good reason for killing you that day . it was the right decision for the business . you had gotten in too far . you knew too much . you were a cop . you were working me , and you were working my family . what i did n't know is that i would end up shooting my own son . and i thank god every day that you survived , even though you hate me . but here 's the lesson that i learned -- it has to be an even playing field . if there 's a man standing in front of you and he 's unarmed , does not mean that he 's a threat . he should not be met with lethal force , and i said i would never do that again . and i did n't do it with johnny . he drew on me , i took my gun out and i shot him to save my own life . now i 'm asking you ... to believe me . not as a cop , but as my son . | michael figures out that carly hired brook lynn to break up dante and lulu . dante asks maya about johnny 's condition and she tells him that johnny might not survive . olivia goes to sit with johnny in the hospital . she tells him that she loves him and wants to be with him no matter what side of the law he is on . she asks dante if he thinks johnny was unarmed when sonny shot him , but dante tells her that he does n't know what to think . dante goes to the police station and tells sonny that they do n't have any evidence that indicates that johnny was armed but sonny sticks to his self - defense story . he tells dante that he learned from his experience with shooting dante that an unarmed opponent does n't need to be met with lethal force . he says he is n't asking dante to believe him as a cop , but as a son . diane tells sonny that he is looking at an attempted murder charge with bail unlikely . diane tells sonny that jason has disappeared so he ca n't help . meanwhile , someone shoots at jason and sam at an old house in the woods . | <s>[INST] brook lynn : i 'm not trying to break up dante and lulu , and to be honest , i 'm offended that you even suggested it . michael : look , i may not know you very well , brook , but i am an expert on my mom . she was furious at dante and lulu when i got sent to prison -- dante for being the catalyst and lulu for taking a side . and nobody holds a grudge tighter or closer than my mom does . brook lynn : right , so you say . but what i 'm saying is that people can grow and people can change . michael : yeah , well , i heard you on the phone . you were ordering very expensive furniture . and are n't you supposed to be broke ? look , brook , just admit it . my mom hired you to break up dante and lulu , did n't she ? brook lynn : okay , how do i put this one ? um , michael , i know that you just got out of prison . okay , i get that . you have murder charges , you have cover ups , it makes perfect sense to me why you would think that everything was a conspiracy . but just think about this for a second . it 's kind of crazy . it 's really far out , is n't it ? michael : no . it makes perfect sense . my mom is relentless when she 's set on payback . she probably made you an offer you ca n't refuse , and you know what , i do n't know , maybe you have your own reasons for wanting to hurt dante and lulu . lulu : well , i got ta give it to you , brook , no grass grows under your feet . working michael is n't going to further your progress with dante . you still have to get through me . i 'm not budging . [ scene_break ] dante : how is he ? maya : well , he caught a bullet . dead center chest , point blank range . dante : so did i , and i 'm alive . mind you , my mother showed up , called the ambulance . i do n't know how long johnny was lying in the street bleeding . maya : well , there 's extensive internal damage . and despite how successful surgery went , there 's an excellent chance johnny could die . which basically means your father is up the river . not a paddle in sight . [ scene_break ] sonny : you got good news ? diane : oh , i wish i did . johnny zacchara is unconscious . actually , he 's in critical condition . so even if he wanted to back up your story , which i highly doubt , he ai n't talkin ' . claire walsh was thoughtful enough to come forward with a recording which proves pre - meditation -- sonny : it was self defense ! diane : on your part . ahem . there is no indication that john zacchara had any kind of weapon or that he threatened you in any way . so , no , sonny . good news ? no , there 's no good news here . you are looking at an attempted murder charge with a very iffy shot at bail . no pun intended . [ scene_break ] [ sam laughs ] [ gunfire ] jason : you okay ? sam : yeah . looks like lopez and his family found us after all . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : but do n't you worry , i am going to make this work . because being with nikolas and spencer is good for all of you , they 're your family . and i guess wyndemere can be kind of fun . your brothers feel like they 're living in a castle , and nikolas has been extremely gracious with all of us , incredibly forgiving of me . i 'd be the most selfish person in the world to let my discomfort stand in the way of all of this . it may never be my home , but it 's part of your legacy and you should know about it . and now i 'm going to stop rambling and let you take a proper nap . what do you say , hmm ? nikolas : you should see the boys , they 're having a blast . the three of them are taking turns riding nip it all over the place . elizabeth : aww . i 'm sure they 're loving that . nikolas : yeah , they 're getting along like they 've been doing it their whole lives . elizabeth : well , congratulations , it 's called a family . you finally have one . nikolas : yeah . how are you and aiden ? elizabeth : we 're enjoying our leisurely morning . nikolas : good , good , i 'm glad to hear that . elizabeth : yeah , we 're really enjoying ourselves . [ scene_break ] maya : so you were hoping to question johnny ? dante : yeah , i need to get a statement from him as soon as he can make one . maya : well , that might be a while . johnny 's not in good shape . dante : yeah , i heard you . um , unconscious the whole time ? maya : he woke up briefly in the e.r . dante : did he say anything ? maya : i said we 'd fix him up . he wished me luck . dante : anything else ? maya : he had asked me to call your mother , and then changed his mind . dante : all right , well , i wo n't touch that one for obvious reasons . did he talk to anyone else ? maya : ethan . dante : you spent some time with johnny , right ? maya : some . mostly when johnny 's with ethan . i mean , i 'm certainly no authority . dante : well , maybe you have an insight and you just do n't realize it . maya : what are you asking me , exactly ? dante : what does your gut tell you about johnny ? maya : [ sighs ] well , he 's reckless , okay . johnny hates sonny with a blinding passion . and that turns him cold and scary . but he also has a soft side , too . i 've seen him with ethan , olivia , kristina , okay . and despite all the inconvenient mob stuff , i think johnny 's a good guy . olivia : yeah , they do n't come any better . [ sighs ] how is he ? maya : he 's critical . maya : i 'll leave you alone with him . olivia : thank you . dante : thanks for your help . olivia : you just could n't listen , could you ? i know i should have tired harder to get through to him . dante : oh , no , no , you 're not going to blame yourself for this . he chose the path that got him here . olivia : i do n't really want to hear that right now , okay , dante ? [ sighs ] i need you to fight . okay ? you 're gon na get through this . i 'm right here with you . [ scene_break ] sonny : i hate it when you get this defeatist attitude . diane : defeatist ? [ chuckles ] all right , well , let 's go over the facts , shall we ? since that 's actually all i am able to deal with . you have admitted to shooting johnny zacchara and then casually strolling away into the night , leaving the man to die on the sidewalk . now , you claim it was self defense , but there is no evidence to corroborate that , since johnny zacchara was not found with a weapon , and he has tested negative for gunshot residue . then , to tighten the screws just a little more , your favorite federal prosecutor , and mine , claire walsh , has decided to help the authorities by producing additional recording of you saying that you plan to ... wait for it ... plead self defense after shooting johnny in cold blood . sonny : i 've got ta tell you , this time i am innocent . i just got ta find a way to prove it . and it would be nice if my attorney would help me instead of giving me another litany of my sins . diane : oh , believe me . believe me . i plan to defend you to the very best of my abilities . that 's my job . it is also my job to make sure you have a clear perception of where you stand in the eyes of the law . sonny : i understand . get it done . just figure out a way to prove that i 'm telling the truth . call jason . tell him to put spinelli to work . there might be a surveillance tape that has johnny holding a gun . diane : spinelli i can talk to . jason seems to have disappeared . [ scene_break ] [ gunshots ] sam : i guess lopez missed his contraband and went looking . jason : when they found the van , they must have realized we were on foot . sam : well , it could n't have been too hard to do that . [ gunshot ] jason : judging by the amount of gunfire , there 's about 5 or 6 guys . just stay down . jason : see , if they know i 'm armed , it might slow them down enough for us to come up with a plan . sam : jason , we are trapped and outgunned ! i do n't think a plan is going to help right now . jason : we 'll figure something out . [ scene_break ] nikolas : sarah ? hey , it 's nikolas . i 'm good , i 'm good , how are you ? good , that 's good . listen , elizabeth and aiden , they 're great . we got that onesie thing or whatever it is that you sent out , that was great , thank you . the reason i 'm calling is , uh , well , elizabeth finally agreed to bring the boys out to wyndemere and stay for a while . i know , do n't get too excited . she puts up a good front , but she really does n't want to be here . so i was kinda hoping that , i do n't know , that you would give us a graceful out like call your sister and invite her for a visit . yeah , well , is that what i want ? no . i want elizabeth to be happy and that just ca n't happen here . [ scene_break ] brook lynn : so what are you ? the conversation police ? look , lulu , you want me to write this down , 'cause i can leave this posted on your door . michael 's my cousin , too . and i do n't need your permission to talk to him . so if i want to talk to him , i get to talk to him . i 'm not even sure why you 're here , because if you and dante are so in love , then there 's nothing i can do to possibly ruin it , right ? lulu : right . that is my point . brook lynn : well , dante was my friend long before you , and he will be my friend long after you 're gone . lulu : oh , okay , so you missed the part where i said i 'm not going anywhere . brook lynn : no , actually , it 's just that those are the famous words of all of his ex - girlfriends . lulu : wow , brook , you really are such a 2-faced bitch . brook lynn : yeah . anything you want to do about it ? michael : okay , guys , look , you do n't want to fight about dante in kelly 's . let 's just all calm down , okay ? and , brook , why do n't you just do what lulu says and just back off ? brook lynn : i 've thought about it , and my answer is ... no . i 'll see you around , lulu . [ scene_break ] olivia : i knew this day was coming . and i tried and i tried to warn you . and i know you heard me , 'cause you could n't really miss it . i was shouting it so loud from the rafters . but you just did n't care . sonny was determined to kill you , and you were determined to make him try . there was just no way that this was going to end well . for either one of you . and here we are . you just never gave a damn about your own life , johnny . you know , he plays the piano . dante : yep . olivia : yeah . he 's wonderful . a real , a real artist . i 'm not kidding . you should ask him to play for you sometime . it 's just so ... beautiful , it 'll break your heart . that 's the john zacchara that i know . that 's the one that i get to spend time with ; the sensitive artist , expressing his whole life 's pain , fingers to the keyboard . dante : look , mom , i get that you love johnny . and he may be as wonderful as all the things you 're saying he 's wonderful at , but , uh , his life is total chaos , okay ? and once this sonny thing blows over , i guarantee you , within 2 days , he 'll be having a death match with somebody else . you deserve better . olivia : there is no better . [ scene_break ] sonny : what do you mean , jason disappeared ? diane : well , the last time i saw him , jason seemed concerned that sam was going to do something ill advised in an attempt to help him , and my guess is that 's exactly what happened . so now jason is gone off after sam , and sam has disappeared as well . sonny : he 's not answering his cell phone ? diane : and his suv has apparently been abandoned . sonny : it 's not like jason to vanish at this time . diane : okay , well , we do n't have the luxury right now , sonny , of worrying about jason . you have to think about yourself . sonny : i want to talk to dante . diane : no , that 's a bad idea . dante is a cop who hates you . sonny : listen , i know that , but he 's my son . diane : yes ! the son that you shot , point blank in the chest ! does that sound familiar , sonny ? it 's the same scenario that you are now in with johnny ! and we in jurisprudence call that a pattern of behavior . the cops use it all the time to trip up criminals . believe me , detective falconeri is the last person you want to be talking to . [ scene_break ] sam : it was thoughtful of santos to leave the shotgun in the van . jason : yeah , we got ta be ready , but we got ta conserve ammo . sam : yeah , that 's a good idea , since i 'm absolutely no use to anybody at this angle . [ gunshots ] sam : why now ? why now , when this is the one time that i have everything in my life to live for ? jason : we 're going to get through this , i promise you . sam : yeah , but we would n't even be in this mess if it were n't for me trying to get evidence against santos . jason : you were just trying to help me . sam : no , jason , i was trying to keep you with me . [ gunshot ] sam : i told myself the last thing i wanted was to see you locked up again , but this is not what i had in mind . [ scene_break ] patrick : robin , wait . listen to me . i know how much i hurt you -- robin : stop . you have no idea how betrayed i feel right now . do you even remember how this whole thing started ? probably not , because you would n't be doing this right now . well , i 'll tell you . you were relentless . you were determined to tear down every single wall that i had , even though you knew they were there for a very good reason . i did n't even like you . i told you to go away , just leave me alone . but you wore me down and you made me believe that you loved me . patrick : i do love you . robin : just shut up , i 'm talking . you made me believe that my heart had found its home . and so we got married and we had a baby . i was n't supposed to be a placeholder for lisa until she came back . patrick : robin ... i made a mistake , okay . there 's nothing i can do to change that . but one stupid night does n't negate the fact that i love you -- robin : will you stop saying that ? like it helps . like that means anything . like you even know what love means . you 're a liar and a cheat , and the sight of you makes me sick ! steve : all right , that 's enough . that 's enough . you do n't want to do this . you do n't want to do this here , really . robin : i 'm sorry . patrick : robin ... [ scene_break ] lisa : i ca n't believe i 'm in a police station actually lodging a complaint . lucky : well , you must believe you have reason to be concerned . lisa : well , precisely . obviously , it 's embarrassing to admit that i slept with patrick . [ sighs ] i hate clichés . i feel like the old girlfriend who got sucked into the past and had an affair with a now married ex . lucky : yeah , well , they call them clichés for a reason . i mean , you and patrick and robin all work together in a highly stressful environment , and that kind of proximity can lead to this sort of thing if you 're not careful . lisa : well , i mean , if i can offer any sort of justification , it 's that patrick and i were pretty serious back in college . and i moved here , and when we were together again , things just felt familiar . you know , we fell into our old , natural rhythms . and then robin left the country , and nature took its course . and what we did , it was totally wrong . and both patrick and i betrayed robin , and she has every right to be furious . but , in threatening me the way that she did , it seemed too real . so , yeah , i 'm concerned . [ scene_break ] cameron : mom , can i have a pony ? elizabeth : no , baby . cameron : why not ? elizabeth : because we do n't have any place to put a pony . spencer : do n't worry . you can ride nippit whenever you want . cameron : i love it here . i want to stay forever and ever . elizabeth : well , one day at a time , okay ? but we 're having fun , right ? everybody 's bonding -- [ cell phone rings ] elizabeth : hey , it 's my sister . excuse me for a minute . hey , what 's going on ? nikolas : so who 's up for swimming ? all : me ! nikolas : all right , let 's go . let 's go get our trunks on , come on . elizabeth : yeah ? nikolas : let 's go , come on . elizabeth : really , when ? [ scene_break ] dante : can i talk to you for a minute ? look , he 's not going anywhere , neither are we . i just want your attention for a minute . olivia : yeah . dante : [ sighs ] sometimes i look at you , okay , i see this face i 've been looking at my whole life . and my heart gets so full and my throat closes up . getting older is giving me a greater appreciation of who you are , okay . and a deeper awareness of just how lucky i am to have you as my mother . and i know you sacrificed everything for me . olivia : oh , come here . being a mother was not a sacrifice . it was the greatest thing that i will ever do . and i loved every second of it . honey , do n't get me wrong , i love all the praise . but where are we going with this ? dante : you deserve the best of everything . okay ? and i just do n't think you 're going to get it from this guy . olivia : honey , i appreciate the sentiment and where you 're coming from , i really do . but me and johnny , it 's just not your call . okay ? you 're a grown man now . with a life of your own . and it 's time for me to have a life of my own , too . okay , and i get to choose who 's in it . and i choose johnny . now honey , i am really sorry if that makes you unhappy , but you know what , i tried it your way . i did . i pushed him away and i gave him ultimatums . me or the mob , me or sonny , vendetta against sonny . and you know , all that got me was sad and lonely and ... and missing the only man that ever really made me happy . so now it 's not on me to judge john and judge his choices . it 's just on me to love him . dante : well , i guess that 's that . olivia : yeah . dante : better than sonny , i guess . olivia : oh , freakin ' sonny . i guess i got ta know the truth , huh ? did sonny really shoot john unarmed ? dante : honestly , ma , at this point , i have no idea . [ scene_break ] [ gunfire ] sam : what even am i doing ? if putting weight on this ankle is our only way out of here -- oww ! jason : okay , stop . stop . sam . do not try that again . sam : it 's just so frustrating ! jason : i know that it is . but that 's how it is right now . running is out of the question . sam : what are we going to do , wait here and just wait for them to come for us ? jason : yeah . lopez 's guys ca n't shoot forever . they 're going to run out of ammo or -- [ gunshots ] jason : okay . the best strategy is just to stay quiet , let them think that we 're out of ammo or we slipped out the back . and once they come in , we 'll just start picking them off . [ scene_break ] nikolas : hey . so the boys are swimming . do n't worry , i made sure they waited an hour after eating before going in . [ elizabeth chuckles ] nikolas : and norma and one of the stable workers , lifeguard certified , are supervising . elizabeth : wow . you really covered all the bases , did n't you ? nikolas : yeah , i just do n't want you to ever have to worry about the kids being safe with me . elizabeth : i do n't , ever . and just so you know , that whole wait an hour before you go swimming thing , it 's an old wives ' tale . nikolas : maybe , but i just figured , why take a chance when your kids are concerned . elizabeth : look at you . who knew you 'd turn out to be such an awesome dad ? i wanted to talk to you about my sister . she did n't just call to say hi . nikolas : is everything okay ? elizabeth : yeah , yeah , she 's good . you know that she 's relocated to northern california . she loves her job , but i guess she 's having a hard time settling in . nikolas : well , how so ? elizabeth : well , outside of work , she 's not making a whole lot of friends . 'cause you know how she is . shy and sometimes and it comes off as being aloof . so she 's asked if i would come visit her . bring the boys . you know , in a casual , no pressure sort of way . nikolas : right , right . and with sarah , casually usually means that she tried really hard not to beg . elizabeth : yeah , exactly . nikolas : well , then you should go . elizabeth : well , i ca n't . nikolas : why ? elizabeth : spencer is loving having the boys here , and jake and cameron are having the time of their lives , and you are spending time , quality time with aiden . it would n't be fair to just uproot everyone . nikolas : i know , but you said yourself that sarah 's on the other side of the country , trying to start a new life alone . you know , she 'd never ask you for anything , which means she probably really needs you . besides , after everything that 's been happening here lately , it would probably be good for you to get away for a while . elizabeth : that part does sound tempting . nikolas : then go . elizabeth : you know , i 'd be taking aiden with me . nikolas : yes , i know , and i will miss him . but he needs to get to know his aunt , too . it 's all right , spencer and i will be here when you get back . go on , i insist . go . elizabeth : okay . okay , i 'll go . nikolas : great . great , well , then let me make the arrangements . i will make sure that you and the boys have the best possible experience . elizabeth : you 've been so good to us . nikolas : i 'll miss you . [ scene_break ] lucky : here you go . lisa : thank you . lucky : listen , i have to admit to a certain amount of bias . i 've known robin most of my life , and i have to say , i find her to be an extraordinary human being who shows grace under pressure . however , uh , i know the kind of anger that adultery can set off . and i assume you have no reason to lie . lisa : absolutely none . lucky : so what exactly do you want from the department ? do you want a restraining order , or ... lisa : um ... you know , i thought i wanted that when i came in , but talking to you has kind of served as a cooling off period . i 'm starting to think that legal action might be a bit premature , and it 'll probably exacerbate the situation . not to mention that robin and i need to figure out a way to co- exist in the hospital and things are already pretty tense . i mean , it might be impossible for her to stay x - number of feet away from me . lucky : so you do n't want a restraining order , then ? lisa : no , you know , i 'm going to hold off now . and with any luck , the waters will clear and , uh , no further action will be necessary . at least you know what 's going on in case , god forbid , anything should happen . okay , you know what , thank you so much for your time . i really appreciate it . lucky : that 's what we 're here for . lisa : okay . [ scene_break ] robin : i 'm not ready for you yet . come back in a couple hours . patrick : what are you doing ? robin : what does it look like i 'm doing ? i 'm packing your things . patrick : robin ... this is our house . i mean , we 're married . robin : really ? that did n't seem to matter to you when you slept with lisa . patrick : i was wrong . and i 'm profoundly sorry . and i know there 's a lot of hurt and anger there , but we can work through this . we do n't have to break up . robin : look , this is the way that i see it -- cheating is just like abuse . if a man hits you once , he will do it again . and i refuse to be the clueless wife letting you cheat on me over and over again . come back in a couple of hours , please .

kelly : no . there really is n't . sharon : kelly , i know that we do n't know each other that well , but i just have to say something . i 've seen what you 've brought to jack 's life , and i 'm thrilled that you helped him find happiness again . kelly : well , i hope i have ... because jack has brought more to my life than ... i ever thought possible . jack : i 'm just hoping to have a chance to get to know the mother of the woman i love . maureen : oh . well , then , you will . let 's sit and talk . jack : maureen , it seems that your visit was going to be a great opportunity to heal some old wounds . unfortunately ... maureen : oh . my -- my visit has upset kelly . jack : i 'm afraid so . maureen : sorry about that . i really , really did n't want that to happen . jack : well , i do n't want kelly to be hurt , and i thought if you could help me understand a few things ... maureen : what things ? jack : well , like why you chose now to come and visit . maureen : my part - time job ended , and i took advantage of that off time to come make up for lost time with my kids . jack : and that lost time was triggered by what -- by the death of your husband ? maureen : some . y -- what -- what -- do -- do you have kids , jack ? jack : i do . maureen : okay . so -- so , maybe you 'll understand this . you know , you do the best you can for your kids , and , at the same time , you try to create your own life for yourself . and sometimes those two roads do not actually come close to each other . i can tell by the look on your face that you understand , so -- oh , i am so sorry . i have n't offered you a drink . jack : no , thank you . maureen , i know this is a difficult subject , but ... kelly still has a lot of questions , and i was hoping that perhaps you could give her the answers she needs . maureen : i wish i could help kelly make sense of what happened to her dad , to our whole family . jack : why ca n't you ? maureen : i mean , h - h - how was i supposed to deal with my husband being killed by one of my children ? it was horrible ! it was a terrible , terrible tragedy . i worked very hard to put that behind me , and so has ben . jack : and so has kelly . maureen : i know that . do you think i do n't know that ? jack : when you mentioned that , though , kelly is almost an afterthought . maureen : kelly is my firstborn . she 's my baby girl . and the minute she was born , every thought about her was how to protect her and -- kelly 's a strong girl . she pulled herself through the loss of her son . and look at the life that she has made for herself here , hmm ? jack : but what happened to her -- maureen : is past . you know , what kelly can do best now is concentrate on all the good things she has in front of her , and you can help her do that , jack . jack : i can promise you i 'll do everything i can to help kelly . maureen : thank you , jack . jack : and i hope we will have a chance to talk again before you leave town . maureen : i look forward to it . thank you . jack : thank you . maureen : oh . oh . this is a nice surprise . uh , please . nikki : thank you . maureen : what a nice visit . nikki : um ... i just wanted to make sure that you understood why i used an assumed name when we met . i - i just wanted to explain that . maureen : oh , there 's no -- i totally understood when we talked earlier , really , and from now on , anytime our paths crossed , i will call you by your god - given name , nikki . nikki : oh , i was n't under the -- how long are you planning on staying in genoa city ? maureen : i - i do n't know . i - i know we do n't know each other all that well , but ... a - are you -- are you -- are you all right ? nikki : well , i 'm not sure i know what you mean . maureen : why -- why -- why are you so nervous ? stitch : maybe it would have been better to meet at jabot , you know ? abby : and miss this sunshine ? who knows if we 're in for another polar vortex this winter ? okay . so , what are the updates -- updates on the renovation ? stitch : well , it 's taken longer than expected to outfit the lab to ashley 's specifications , you know , but it should be ready anytime . abby : wait . were those the contractors ' words -- `` anytime `` ? stitch : exact quote . it 's frustrating . ashley wants me to start testing the fragrance right away , and i 'm anxious to get to work . abby : all right . well , maybe i can call the contractor and give them a managerial push . stitch : suddenly , i feel for the guy . abby : as you should . [ chuckles ] my mom 's concerned ? stitch : about the scent . she thinks it 's not quite right . that 's why she wants me to keep playing with it . abby : that 's why she wants me in on all the testing . stitch : whoa , whoa , whoa . you , in my lab ? abby : yes . i will be wherever i need to be to offer my opinion while this product is being developed . consider us partners . stitch : if that 's what ashley wants , fine . abby : you know what ? do you think i am thrilled to be hanging out with you and all of your chemicals ? no , i 'm not . stitch : okay . just keep your nose in the fragrance and out of my business and it should n't be a problem . abby : fantastic . stitch : fantastic . chelsea : well , it 's been real bumping into everybody like this . billy : yeah . i ca n't believe the timing . chelsea : it was n't your fault victoria walked in when she did . [ sighs ] are you okay ? billy : yeah , i am . chelsea : but did it change -- billy : no . it did n't change my desire to want to figure out what this is . chelsea : it 's weird , though -- i mean , the fact that we 're actually doing this . billy : getting to know each other better , or ... ? chelsea : i mean , hello . billy , after i had your child , we started off with zero trust . billy : and then jumped in to being friends ... chelsea : with benefits . billy : great benefits . chelsea : so , now what ? billy : dating . chelsea : in public ? billy : chels , no more pretending to be something that we 're not -- the boundaries , the pressure . let 's just see where this goes . neil : this is the best decision for you , hilary . hilary : whether i like it or not ? neil : okay . i 'm gon na call lily , and i 'm gon na ask her to come back and pick me up , and that 's gon na give you some time alone to get your things together , okay ? hilary : neil , it 's gorgeous . neil : i know it 's unexpected . hilary : you 're pretty confident , are n't you ? neil : well , i believe in preparing for success . hilary , i wanted to find a ring as unique as you are . it had to have fire , strength , definitely elegance . and -- oh , yeah -- it had to be gorgeous . hilary : [ chuckles ] i love it , neil . i love you . hilary : neil , i wo n't go . i ca n't . i will never , never leave you . i 'll never leave you . neil : hilary ... no . do n't fight me on this . hilary : i am fighting you , neil . we exchanged vows that we would stand by each other for better or worse . i made a promise to you that we would get through this , and that is exactly what we are doing . neil : hilary , we 're not getting through this . hilary : you are not -- you are not -- gon na push me away . we 'll get through this . now i do n't want to hear another word about us ending our marriage . [ knock on door ] jack : hey ! hope you do n't mind my dropping by . i wanted to see how neil 's doing . hilary : perfect timing , jack . i am about to head to the office . neil ... neil : yeah ? hilary : ... i 'll be back in a few hours . where will you be ? neil : i 'm gon na be right here . hilary : okay . bye , jack . jack : bye . despite what your wife just said , i sense that i 've come at a bad time . neil : i was trying to let hilary go . sharon : you know i was once married to jack . kelly : yes . you told me . sharon : and we 've managed to remain friends , despite that . kelly : well , that 's one of the things i love about jack -- his loyalty to the women who have obviously been important to him . sharon : are you talking about phyllis now ? not to speak ill of the ill , but i am so delighted that jack is dating a woman like you . kelly : [ chuckles ] thank you . i heard there was quite a history between you and phyllis . sharon : yeah . my dealings with phyllis have been pretty historical . kelly : [ chuckles ] you know , i was wondering , um ... you know what ? never mind . i 'm sorry . sharon : no , it 's fine . ask me . kelly : after phyllis moved on from nick and was committed to jack , did the two of you ever get to a decent place ? what were things like between you before the accident ? sharon : things were never good between us . but ... i do n't really remember where we left things . kelly : i 'm so sorry . i 've made you uncomfortable . sharon : no , you did n't . kelly : well , back to wedding plans , then ? sharon : mm - hmm . kelly : okay . nick : all right . what do you guys want for dinner ? faith : is it true ? ! is it true , daddy ? ! noah , do you think it 's true ? noah : why are n't you denying it ? nick : no comment . noah : look , the way i see it , you got two options . you either spill the beans or you spend the next several hours being badgered by ... faith : daddy , please tell me ! please , please , please , please , please , please , please ! nick : okay ! okay ! okay ! your mom is gon na be so mad at me . we were supposed to tell you together . i 'm in trouble , and we 're not even married yet . noah : not married ... yet ? nick : it 's true . your mother and i are engaged . faith : yes ! this is the best news ever ! noah : congratulations , dad . nick : oh , thanks , guys . thank you . faith : and you know what else ? nick : what ? faith : since you and mommy are getting married , i wo n't be a love child anymore . billy : i 'm gon na go check on johnny and give him a kiss goodbye . chelsea : all right . meet you downstairs ? billy : sounds good . victoria : i bet you could barely wait for the ink to dry on my divorce papers . chelsea : okay , i really do n't feel like fighting with you , victoria . victoria : well , neither do i , but i 'm just calling it like i see it , and what i see is a woman who moves really fast . chelsea : you ca n't have it both ways , you know . you do n't want billy for yourself , but you do n't want someone else to have him , either . victoria : no , not someone like you . chelsea : you made your single bed . now sleep in it . stitch : all right . you 'll get a firm date on when we can get in the lab ? abby : yeah , you do that . victoria : you know , i find it fascinating that for months you 've just been pretending to help billy save our marriage . chelsea : i was trying to help . abby : um , excuse me . victoria : yeah . help yourself to my husband . chelsea : after you dumped him ! victoria : while we were still married . chelsea : while you were sleeping with stitch . abby : okay , unless you guys want to land on the cover of the gc buzz , you need to cool it . do n't you have a dress to go sew or something ? chelsea : or something . abby : no need to thank me , sis . i am always here for you . victoria : really , sis ? because from where i was sitting right here , it looks like you were flirting with ben . nick : so , how are you with this , really ? noah : i 'm happy for you guys . nick : well , i know you had some doubts . nick : i just -- i wanted to make sure that mom was stable enough for you guys to be in a relationship again . nick : well , what a difference a year makes , huh ? noah : yeah . she was a mess back then , you know ? she was always worried about you and avery getting married and doing reckless things like running red lights . nick : oh , yeah . i forgot about that traffic violation . we came across that a few months ago . noah : did it spook her ? nick : well , she thought it was what she was trying to remember and she was afraid to tell me . noah : was it ? nick : i do n't know , and i do n't care . i mean , sharon and i are not worried about that secret anymore . we are together now , and nothing is gon na break us apart . sharon : oh , hilary , hey . i have good news . hilary : hey . sharon : are you okay ? what 's wrong ? is it neil ? is he all right ? hilary : just a rough day . sharon : well , if you need a friend to talk to , i 'm here . i 'm ready to listen . neil : i mean , you do agree with me , do n't you , jack , that it would be best for hilary to leave me ? jack : i 'll be honest with you -- i am blown away that you would even consider the possibility . neil : well , let me tell you why . i 'm thinking about my wife . jack : i realize you think this is a noble effort on your part , but i also know how good you and hilary are together , unless -- neil : unless what ? jack : unless your wife has given you some reason to think she does n't want to be here . neil : well , let me count the ways . i mean , she 's devoted . she 's determined . she 's encouraging . she 's loving . come on . jack : and you told her to go away ? neil : she -- she refuses to leave . jack : okay . so , this is not about hilary . neil : no , of course it is , jack . i 'm trying to -- jack : you 're trying to tell me this is about your wife . this is about you and your fears and your frustrations . neil : why would a beautiful woman want to be with a man like me ? i ca n't even see , jack . jack : because she 's crazy about you , neil . neil : [ sighs ] i ca n't let her stay . jack : so , which is worse -- believing that hilary is staying out of pity or forcing a woman away who loves you , who may love you every bit as deeply as you love her ? nikki : i know you -- you said that you would keep this between just us , but -- maureen : oh . i 'm just some woman you met in a bar . yeah , i understand . nikki : can i really trust you , maureen ? maureen : i swear on my soul , you got nothing to worry about . anything that 's said between us stays between you and me . nikki : well , thank you . thank you . i mean ... the tabloids -- you know , they just jump at any little thing . maureen : oh , like drinking ? nikki : that is a prime example of something being overblown . just because i need a break from the pressures of being mrs. victor newman from time to time ... maureen : that must be so hard . i mean , to be watched like that all the time ? and i bet it 's awfully lonely , too . nikki : yeah , it -- it can be . maureen : yeah . i know what it feels like to be alone , especially when my kids lived further away . but not there 's gon na be a baby , and there 's nothing better than a baby . nikki : that 's so true . maureen : you just got to keep focused on the positive things in life . so , sure , you must have something else terrific going on in your life right now . nikki : well , uh , my son nicholas is engaged . maureen : perfect ! perfect ! that 's a wonderful thing to celebrate . let us toast our kids ' good fortune . nikki : no . maureen : oh , my god . i 'm so sorry . oh , i - i - i totally forgot that you do n't really drink . faith : noah , come see the card i 'm making for the wedding ! noah : okay , kiddo ! i 'll be right there ! well , if nothing else , your impending marriage has made that little girl very , very happy . nick : i know how she feels . noah : all right ! let 's see what you got ! hilary : thanks for offering a shoulder to lean on , sharon , but i 'll be fine . sharon : are you sure ? hilary : yeah . neil and i will get through this . but , hey , you said that you had good news . sharon : yeah . nick and i are getting remarried . hilary : oh , my god ! congratulations ! sharon : thank you . yeah , i , um ... get to spend the rest of my life with the man i love . jack : neil , i remember the pain and anger and frustration of someone telling me i would never walk again . neil : how did you get through it ? jack : by fighting to get through it , with the help and care and courage of my loved ones . neil : [ sighs ] jack , this is -- this is so difficult ! jack : it is . it 's very difficult . but i hope this is the last time you will even contemplate divorce . neil , you should be embracing your wife 's support , not pushing it away . neil : you 're right . i went about this all wrong , did n't i ? billy : about our first date -- i was thinking i might go more traditional -- bring you a corsage or something . chelsea : [ laughing ] oh . or not . billy : and then i could ask your mother for permission beforehand . chelsea : oh , god , no . definitely do n't do that . billy : you 're putting the kibosh on all my ideas here . chelsea : i 'm only putting the kibosh on the lame ones , so no more of those , please . billy : no more lame ideas ? i do n't think i can guarantee that . chelsea : i 'm really looking forward to this , billy . billy : yeah . me too . look at what we 've made out of a rotten beginning . imagine what we could do with a great one . abby : there is zero , zip , zilch happening between me and stitch . do you really think i would hit on him ? victoria : i am sorry , abby . i do n't know what 's wrong with me . i guess it 's just the hormones . abby : i think you 're freaking out a little bit because of this whole billy- chelsea thing , but , trust me , you have nothing to worry about . chelsea can not compete with you . victoria : i do n't know about that , but seeing them together has definitely stiffened my resolve to get over billy . abby : keep an open mind . i do n't buy that you 're completely over him . victoria : abby , we 're divorced . abby : despite the divorce . and i really hope that you do n't go back to stitch just because he 's available . victoria : i can tell you right now that 's definitely never going to happen . kelly : i got your text . what 's up ? stitch : i was leaving mom 's earlier , and jack showed up to see her . kelly : ohh . i wish he had n't done that . but i 'm sure he meant well . stitch : i 'm sure he 's trying to look out for you , but i wish he would n't get involved in this by stirring things up with mom . maureen : nikki , i 'm so sorry for suggesting you have a cocktail . would you like a soda ? some iced tea ? a lemonade , maybe ? nikki : well , one drink ca n't hurt . maureen : thatagirl . cheers . nikki : cheers . [ next_on ] victor : you have nothing to report to me ? dr. cutler : actually , i do . austin : i ca n't live like this , summer . summer : i had no idea that you were so unhappy . sharon : i ca n't hide it anymore . i have to tell you my secret . | at the athletic club , jack gives kelly a single rose and a kiss . jack asks if she 's see her mom yet . kelly admits she 's been avoiding her . stitch visits maureen to see how long she is staying in town . maureen says she 'd like to stay until after the baby is born . at the rooftop pool , victoria finds billy and chelsea kissing . victoria makes the remark , `` look who is back in town . `` at the newman ranch , nick tries to get sharon to agree to a quickie wedding at city hall , but she insists on a big wedding with everyone present . nikki arrives just as sharon is leaving . she offers her congratulations to sharon . nikki asks nick about his engagement to sharon . neil tells hilary that he wants a divorce and they both know the reason why . neil thinks that hilary deserves better than he can give her . he wants to set her free , so she can find someone who can see . neil insists to hilary that she leave him . jack offers kelly help with her mother . he reminds kelly of how she bounces back after all the things that have gone wrong in her life and it makes him wonder if she would do that to him . kelly lets jack know that maureen sided with stitch after he murdered their father . sharon interrupts jack and kelly to tell them about her and nick 's engagement and to ask kelly 's help in planning the wedding reception . maureen and stitch discuss her staying in town for a while . stitch is starting to leave and when he opens the door , jack is standing there . at the rooftop pool , stitch interrupts victoria , billy , and chelsea . | <s>[INST] kelly : pretty . jack : i could n't agree more . i 'm kind of surprised to find you alone . i thought you might be with your mom . kelly : why ? jack : she is staying upstairs here . kelly : i have n't seen her . i 've been busy . jack : you have n't called her ? kelly : extremely busy . okay . i have n't been that busy . but she is the one who showed up unannounced . i mean , maybe i 'll run in to her , but i 'm not gon na seek her out . jack : i realize things have been difficult with you and maureen , but you 're gon na have to deal with her sometime . kelly : i am dealing ... from a distance . jack : i told you i would be glad to go with you to have a face - to - face , intimate , honest conversation with her . kelly : jack , maybe i do n't want you facing her face , either . jack : why not ? kelly : because , my love , whither my mother goes , trouble follows . maureen : hey ! stitch : hey , ma . maureen : it 's nice that you live so close , you can visit . stitch : well , i - i have a work thing . i ca n't stay long . maureen : oh . so , why 'd you come ? stitch : [ sighs ] yesterday when i told you you did n't have to stick around , you said you were planning on staying for a while . maureen : i 'd like to stay for the birth of the baby . stitch : i think there 's another reason . maureen : of course there is , honey . billy : hey , victoria . victoria : hi , billy . [ sighing ] oh . well , look who 's back in town . nick : so , how soon ? sharon : well , just as soon as we can organize a wedding . nick : what do we need to organize ? you could throw on a dress , i 'll put on a suit , we 'll head on down to city hall , and lock this thing down . i 'll even drive . sharon : oh , gee . that 's a nice offer . but , nick , i think we should put a little more effort into it than that . nick : we can stop for flowers on the way . sharon : nick , stop . just because i want to throw this together quickly does n't mean that i want a quickie wedding . you know what i mean ? nick : i 'm gon na pretend to . sharon : i think that we should do this in front of people who matter to us . i mean , there 's no reason why we should hide our relationship in some dark corner of city hall , right ? nick : you 're right . sharon : okay . so , then , there are a few things to organize , but it will be painless , i promise . we need a venue , we need invitations , and a cake . nick : okay , just as long as you can tear yourself away from wedding planning so we can have dinner with our children this evening . sharon : i will be back in plenty of time to tell the kids . nick : okay , and then after dinner , what 's for dessert ? [ knock on door ] sharon : i 'll get that on the way out . nick : okay . nikki : hi , sharon . how are you ? sharon : i 'm fabulous , thank you . come on in . nick 's right here . nikki : thank you . sharon : i have to go . i 'll see you guys later . nikki : okay . nick : bye . nikki : hi , darling . nick : hey , mom . what 's going on ? nikki : oh , nothing . just have n't had a chance to speak to you privately since i heard about your engagement . nick : well , what is there left to say , except `` congratulations `` ? hilary : a divorce ? neil , why ? this -- is this about lily ? like , did she say something ? neil : why would you say that ? hilary : she was just here , and you were n't talking about this before she left . neil : hilary , this has nothing to do with my daughter . there are facts here that i ca n't ignore . hilary : facts ? neil : you and i both know that this is n't gon na work out . and we both know why . hilary : you think i do n't love you ? because i do . neil : i know . i know you do . i know that . hilary : okay . so , then , you do n't love me anymore ? neil : how can you say that ? hilary : you want to divorce me . hilary : it 's because i love you that i 'm willing to let you go , hilary . hilary : this is about your eyes , is n't it ? neil : listen , you did n't sign up for a life like this . hilary : i signed up for a life with you . neil : yes , but not with me like this . you deserve so much better . hilary : what about what you deserve , neil ? what about being certain that we would get through this together ? neil : all right . that was before , when i thought that i was actually gon na get my vision back . [ sighs ] this could be permanent . hilary , i -- now , right now , this is n't the kind of life that you should be living . hilary : this is the life that i wanted ! neil : that you wanted ? hilary : this is the life that i want -- being married to you , neil , loving you , living with you . neil : yeah , right -- looking after me . hilary : do you think i mind that ? neil : hilary , you should be having an exciting and vibrant life . hilary : we still can ! neil : with someone who is young and vital . hilary : like you . neil : no ! someone who can see ! someone who can see you -- someone who can see you for the beautiful lady that you are . hilary : you think that 's all i want -- to be seen ? who do you think i am ? neil : i think that you 're a very beautiful , generous , loving wife . i 'm not gon na think less of you if you walk out of this door and leave this marriage . hilary : i would think less of me ! neil : all right . all right . hilary : so , we 're okay ? neil : what do you want most ? hilary : i want to make you happy . neil : and what would make me happy is seeing you happy , seeing you free ... hilary : no . neil : ... to find happiness with someone else . hilary : i ca n't ! neil : make me happy ! i want you to leave me . jack : you are staring at that rose like it 's gon na bite you . kelly : that 's because i suspect it 's operating under an assumed name . jack : like `` tulip `` ? kelly : like ploy to get me to open up about my mother . jack : see , i thought you were so crazy about me , you might do that on your own . kelly : tsk , tsk , tsk . sneaky . jack : let me help . kelly : you ca n't . my mother and i will never get along . jack : you said that about your brother . kelly : that 's different . my mother and i were never close to begin with . jack : come on . she 's trying . she 's reaching out . kelly : that was an act . she 's ... jack : go ahead . finish that . kelly : i will never trust her . what are you thinking ? jack : i am just thinking how amazing it is that you bounce so well . kelly : i beg your pardon ? jack : well , life 's taken more than a few swipes at you . you lost your father , lost your son , lost your marriage , and still you fought back . kelly : bounced . jack : and then there 's that other thing about you that 's both admirable and maybe a little scary . kelly : which is ? jack : you walk away . kelly : i do not . jack : you walked away from your ex - husband ... kelly : well , jack , that was mutual . jack : ... and your brother ... kelly : that was justifiable , given what he did . jack : ... and billy ... kelly : that was a moment in time . that was nothing lasting . jack : ... and now your mother . i ca n't help but wonder if we run in to a bump if you 'll find it easy to walk away from me . kelly : what can i do ? jack : let me in . kelly : [ sighs ] okay . look , even before i went away to boarding school , my mother was distant from me . jack : and not with ben ? kelly : no . just me . and the way that she acted after my father died , it was -- it was disappointing . jack : you mean the way she sided with ben after your father was killed ? kelly : my father was her husband . he gave her a wonderful life . he had two children with her . jack : everyone grieves differently . kelly : this is different . this is -- it was like she did n't miss him , like ... i pored over pictures of him after he died . i wanted to be surrounded by his things . jack : just to feel close to him ? kelly : yes , and she could n't care less about his shirts or his voicemails or his side of the bed . she did n't miss him . he did n't matter . do you understand ? i can not be disappointed by that woman one more time in my life , okay ? it just upsets me far too much . sharon : kelly ! just the person i was looking for . hi , jack . jack : wow ! you look happy ! sharon : i am . i wanted to look into booking an event for the club . kelly : oh . jack : what 's the occasion ? sharon : my wedding reception . kelly : ohh ! jack : you and nick ? sharon : we 're tying the knot again . kelly : wow ! well , best wishes to the bride ! sharon : thank you . jack : fantastic . good for you . after everything you and nick have been through , the love you two have -- it lasts . sharon : mm - hmm . stitch : i told you i have everything under control . maureen : i believe you . stitch : then why are you staying ? maureen : i told you -- i want to spend time with you and kelly . stitch : really ? you 're gon na stick to that story ? maureen : look , i 'd like to stay long enough to at least catch a glimpse of the business lives my kids have created . and you 're gon na have a baby ! stitch : [ scoffs ] maybe . maureen : and -- and kelly is making this life with a wonderful man . i 'd really like to mend fences with kelly . stitch : that could take some work . maureen : we 'll see how it goes . i feel so bad that the past has come back to hurt you now . stitch : do n't worry . that 's on me . maureen : [ sighs ] honey , i -- all our lives changed that day . stitch : all we can do is try to move forward the best we can . look , i - i got to go . maureen : okay . have a good day . stitch : all right . jack : hello , stitch . maureen : oh . uh , are -- are you here to see me ? jack : yes , i am . stitch : you later , ma . maureen : okay . please , yes . is kelly gon na join us ? jack : no . actually , i 've got a few things i need to say to you myself . chelsea : we were just -- billy : it 's okay , chels . we do n't have to explain anything to victoria . i signed papers to that effect . victoria : billy 's right . we 're free to do whatever we want with our personal lives now . billy : oh , by the way , johnny was really excited about gym class today . he kept yelling , `` free play ! `` all the way over in the car . victoria : oh , yeah . i completely forgot . that -- that 's after gym class . i guess i 'll have to figure out something to do with myself until then . stitch : [ sighs ] nick : well , you accepted the news so easily , i thought maybe you were just trying to keep the peace , as usual . nikki : well , darling , you know i will always have reservations about sharon . nick : mom . nikki : but she has been a lot better lately . she 's making you happy , and she 's been a good mother . nick : thank you for noticing . nikki : well , i have noticed that , and i know from personal experience how difficult it can be when you feel that things are slipping away in your life . nick : mom ? nikki : i ... really hope that the two of you stay as happy as you are right now . nick : we will . what about your happiness ? nikki : i 'm fine . nick : well , you seem a little preoccupied , jittery . is -- i mean , what 's going on ? nikki : there is nothing going on with me ! i wish you and everybody would just back off ! stitch : well , hi , everyone . abby : you 're early . stitch : you 're late . abby : well , and i 'm here , so that 's all that matters , right ? and look -- everyone else is here , too . billy : what could you and stitch possibly have to be meeting about ? abby : business . billy : jabot ? stitch : ashley hired me as her new chemist . billy : you 're the new chemist ? stitch : oh , jack did n't tell you yet ? billy : i have n't seen my brother lately . i guess i need to check my e - mails . chelsea : congratulations . abby : i 'm still getting used to the idea of our new employee , but , uncle billy , you 're just gon na have to get used to it . you and stitch will be roaming the same halls . victoria : abby , have you heard that nick and sharon are getting remarried ? abby : nick called , but i got busy . did you talk to him ? victoria : um , yeah . actually , we had a very long conversation . abby : and what did he say ? victoria : that , despite all of his ups and downs with sharon , that he 's never stopped loving her or stopped wanting to have a real family together . nick : sorry . i did n't mean to upset you . nikki : no , no . i 'm sorry . i should n't have snapped at you . i 've just been on edge lately with that madman loose and dealing with the press , and your father is constantly checking on me . nick : well , i hate seeing the toll this is taking on you , mom . nikki : what is it they say ? it 'll only make me stronger . nick : i have no doubt . nikki : well ... uh - oh . who 's here ? nick : there they are . faith : grandma ! nikki : no way ! hey ! how are you , sweetheart ? it 's so good to see you . ohh . noah : how are you ? nikki : well , i 'm fine now that i 've seen you . but , unfortunately , i have to go . i 'm so sorry . i 'll see you soon , though , okay ? noah : okay . love you . nikki : love you , too . you be good . faith : bye , grandma ! nikki : okay . nick : thanks for coming by . love you . nikki : bye - bye . nick : all right ! how was school ? faith : peyton invited me to dinner . can i go ? nick : sorry . no . we 're having a family dinner tonight . noah : too bad , kid . sorry . nick : you included . noah : i have plans . nick : not anymore . faith : but peyton 's having movie night with hot dogs and popcorn . nick : yeah , i understand , kiddo , but this dinner 's kind of important . noah : is something wrong ? nick : no . everything 's fine . faith : so , it 's a good dinner ? nick : it 's the best kind of dinner . noah : what 's really going on , dad ? nick : you know , let 's -- let 's wait for your mom . faith : mommy 's bringing us something ? nick : i just do n't want to ruin the surprise , okay ? faith : is it a puppy ? nick : it 's not a puppy . faith : is it something better ? nick : just -- noah : are you and mom getting married ? sharon : so , just a small reception -- our family and our closest friends . kelly : sure . how much lead time ? sharon : do you think you can get us in ? is there any space available ? kelly : maybe in one of our smaller private dining rooms . sharon : oh , yeah ! that 's perfect ! kelly : okay , great ! um , have you given any thought to the menu that you might like ? sharon : i really have n't even gotten to that yet . kelly : you know what ? let me e - mail you some of our menus , along with information on our other vendors . sharon : like florists ? kelly : yes . yes . we have someone make these just gorgeous arrangements . sharon : oh , that 's great ! kelly : yes . sharon : but is there anything better than a single rose from someone who loves you ? kelly : no . there really is n't . sharon : kelly , i know that we do n't know each other that well , but i just have to say something . i 've seen what you 've brought to jack 's life , and i 'm thrilled that you helped him find happiness again . kelly : well , i hope i have ... because jack has brought more to my life than ... i ever thought possible . jack : i 'm just hoping to have a chance to get to know the mother of the woman i love . maureen : oh . well , then , you will . let 's sit and talk . jack : maureen , it seems that your visit was going to be a great opportunity to heal some old wounds . unfortunately ... maureen : oh . my -- my visit has upset kelly . jack : i 'm afraid so . maureen : sorry about that . i really , really did n't want that to happen . jack : well , i do n't want kelly to be hurt , and i thought if you could help me understand a few things ... maureen : what things ? jack : well , like why you chose now to come and visit . maureen : my part - time job ended , and i took advantage of that off time to come make up for lost time with my kids . jack : and that lost time was triggered by what -- by the death of your husband ? maureen : some . y -- what -- what -- do -- do you have kids , jack ? jack : i do . maureen : okay . so -- so , maybe you 'll understand this . you know , you do the best you can for your kids , and , at the same time , you try to create your own life for yourself . and sometimes those two roads do not actually come close to each other . i can tell by the look on your face that you understand , so -- oh , i am so sorry . i have n't offered you a drink . jack : no , thank you . maureen , i know this is a difficult subject , but ... kelly still has a lot of questions , and i was hoping that perhaps you could give her the answers she needs . maureen : i wish i could help kelly make sense of what happened to her dad , to our whole family . jack : why ca n't you ? maureen : i mean , h - h - how was i supposed to deal with my husband being killed by one of my children ? it was horrible ! it was a terrible , terrible tragedy . i worked very hard to put that behind me , and so has ben . jack : and so has kelly . maureen : i know that . do you think i do n't know that ? jack : when you mentioned that , though , kelly is almost an afterthought . maureen : kelly is my firstborn . she 's my baby girl . and the minute she was born , every thought about her was how to protect her and -- kelly 's a strong girl . she pulled herself through the loss of her son . and look at the life that she has made for herself here , hmm ? jack : but what happened to her -- maureen : is past . you know , what kelly can do best now is concentrate on all the good things she has in front of her , and you can help her do that , jack . jack : i can promise you i 'll do everything i can to help kelly . maureen : thank you , jack . jack : and i hope we will have a chance to talk again before you leave town . maureen : i look forward to it . thank you . jack : thank you . maureen : oh . oh . this is a nice surprise . uh , please . nikki : thank you . maureen : what a nice visit . nikki : um ... i just wanted to make sure that you understood why i used an assumed name when we met . i - i just wanted to explain that . maureen : oh , there 's no -- i totally understood when we talked earlier , really , and from now on , anytime our paths crossed , i will call you by your god - given name , nikki . nikki : oh , i was n't under the -- how long are you planning on staying in genoa city ?

stitch : maybe it would have been better to meet at jabot , you know ? abby : and miss this sunshine ? who knows if we 're in for another polar vortex this winter ? okay . so , what are the updates -- updates on the renovation ? stitch : well , it 's taken longer than expected to outfit the lab to ashley 's specifications , you know , but it should be ready anytime . abby : wait . were those the contractors ' words -- `` anytime `` ? stitch : exact quote . it 's frustrating . ashley wants me to start testing the fragrance right away , and i 'm anxious to get to work . abby : all right . well , maybe i can call the contractor and give them a managerial push . stitch : suddenly , i feel for the guy . abby : as you should . [ chuckles ] my mom 's concerned ? stitch : about the scent . she thinks it 's not quite right . that 's why she wants me to keep playing with it . abby : that 's why she wants me in on all the testing . stitch : whoa , whoa , whoa . you , in my lab ? abby : yes . i will be wherever i need to be to offer my opinion while this product is being developed . consider us partners . stitch : if that 's what ashley wants , fine . abby : you know what ? do you think i am thrilled to be hanging out with you and all of your chemicals ? no , i 'm not . stitch : okay . just keep your nose in the fragrance and out of my business and it should n't be a problem . abby : fantastic . stitch : fantastic . chelsea : well , it 's been real bumping into everybody like this . billy : yeah . i ca n't believe the timing . chelsea : it was n't your fault victoria walked in when she did . [ sighs ] are you okay ? billy : yeah , i am . chelsea : but did it change -- billy : no . it did n't change my desire to want to figure out what this is . chelsea : it 's weird , though -- i mean , the fact that we 're actually doing this . billy : getting to know each other better , or ... ? chelsea : i mean , hello . billy , after i had your child , we started off with zero trust . billy : and then jumped in to being friends ... chelsea : with benefits . billy : great benefits . chelsea : so , now what ? billy : dating . chelsea : in public ? billy : chels , no more pretending to be something that we 're not -- the boundaries , the pressure . let 's just see where this goes . neil : this is the best decision for you , hilary . hilary : whether i like it or not ? neil : okay . i 'm gon na call lily , and i 'm gon na ask her to come back and pick me up , and that 's gon na give you some time alone to get your things together , okay ? hilary : neil , it 's gorgeous . neil : i know it 's unexpected . hilary : you 're pretty confident , are n't you ? neil : well , i believe in preparing for success . hilary , i wanted to find a ring as unique as you are . it had to have fire , strength , definitely elegance . and -- oh , yeah -- it had to be gorgeous . hilary : [ chuckles ] i love it , neil . i love you . hilary : neil , i wo n't go . i ca n't . i will never , never leave you . i 'll never leave you . neil : hilary ... no . do n't fight me on this . hilary : i am fighting you , neil . we exchanged vows that we would stand by each other for better or worse . i made a promise to you that we would get through this , and that is exactly what we are doing . neil : hilary , we 're not getting through this . hilary : you are not -- you are not -- gon na push me away . we 'll get through this . now i do n't want to hear another word about us ending our marriage .

neil : i 'm gon na be right here . hilary : okay . bye , jack . jack : bye . despite what your wife just said , i sense that i 've come at a bad time . neil : i was trying to let hilary go . sharon : you know i was once married to jack . kelly : yes . you told me . sharon : and we 've managed to remain friends , despite that . kelly : well , that 's one of the things i love about jack -- his loyalty to the women who have obviously been important to him . sharon : are you talking about phyllis now ? not to speak ill of the ill , but i am so delighted that jack is dating a woman like you . kelly : [ chuckles ] thank you . i heard there was quite a history between you and phyllis . sharon : yeah . my dealings with phyllis have been pretty historical . kelly : [ chuckles ] you know , i was wondering , um ... you know what ? never mind . i 'm sorry . sharon : no , it 's fine . ask me . kelly : after phyllis moved on from nick and was committed to jack , did the two of you ever get to a decent place ? what were things like between you before the accident ? sharon : things were never good between us . but ... i do n't really remember where we left things . kelly : i 'm so sorry . i 've made you uncomfortable . sharon : no , you did n't . kelly : well , back to wedding plans , then ?

nick : it 's true . your mother and i are engaged . faith : yes ! this is the best news ever ! noah : congratulations , dad . nick : oh , thanks , guys . thank you . faith : and you know what else ? nick : what ? faith : since you and mommy are getting married , i wo n't be a love child anymore . billy : i 'm gon na go check on johnny and give him a kiss goodbye . chelsea : all right . meet you downstairs ? billy : sounds good . victoria : i bet you could barely wait for the ink to dry on my divorce papers . chelsea : okay , i really do n't feel like fighting with you , victoria . victoria : well , neither do i , but i 'm just calling it like i see it , and what i see is a woman who moves really fast . chelsea : you ca n't have it both ways , you know . you do n't want billy for yourself , but you do n't want someone else to have him , either . victoria : no , not someone like you . chelsea : you made your single bed . now sleep in it . stitch : all right . you 'll get a firm date on when we can get in the lab ? abby : yeah , you do that . victoria : you know , i find it fascinating that for months you 've just been pretending to help billy save our marriage . chelsea : i was trying to help . abby : um , excuse me . victoria : yeah . help yourself to my husband . chelsea : after you dumped him ! victoria : while we were still married . chelsea : while you were sleeping with stitch . abby : okay , unless you guys want to land on the cover of the gc buzz , you need to cool it . do n't you have a dress to go sew or something ? chelsea : or something . abby : no need to thank me , sis . i am always here for you . victoria : really , sis ? because from where i was sitting right here , it looks like you were flirting with ben . nick : so , how are you with this , really ? noah : i 'm happy for you guys . nick : well , i know you had some doubts . nick : i just -- i wanted to make sure that mom was stable enough for you guys to be in a relationship again . nick : well , what a difference a year makes , huh ? noah : yeah . she was a mess back then , you know ? she was always worried about you and avery getting married and doing reckless things like running red lights . nick : oh , yeah . i forgot about that traffic violation . we came across that a few months ago . noah : did it spook her ? nick : well , she thought it was what she was trying to remember and she was afraid to tell me . noah : was it ? nick : i do n't know , and i do n't care . i mean , sharon and i are not worried about that secret anymore . we are together now , and nothing is gon na break us apart . sharon : oh , hilary , hey . i have good news . hilary : hey . sharon : are you okay ? what 's wrong ? is it neil ? is he all right ? hilary : just a rough day . sharon : well , if you need a friend to talk to , i 'm here . i 'm ready to listen . neil : i mean , you do agree with me , do n't you , jack , that it would be best for hilary to leave me ? jack : i 'll be honest with you -- i am blown away that you would even consider the possibility . neil : well , let me tell you why . i 'm thinking about my wife . jack : i realize you think this is a noble effort on your part , but i also know how good you and hilary are together , unless -- neil : unless what ? jack : unless your wife has given you some reason to think she does n't want to be here . neil : well , let me count the ways . i mean , she 's devoted . she 's determined . she 's encouraging . she 's loving . come on . jack : and you told her to go away ? neil : she -- she refuses to leave . jack : okay . so , this is not about hilary . neil : no , of course it is , jack . i 'm trying to -- jack : you 're trying to tell me this is about your wife . this is about you and your fears and your frustrations . neil : why would a beautiful woman want to be with a man like me ? i ca n't even see , jack . jack : because she 's crazy about you , neil . neil : [ sighs ] i ca n't let her stay . jack : so , which is worse -- believing that hilary is staying out of pity or forcing a woman away who loves you , who may love you every bit as deeply as you love her ? nikki : i know you -- you said that you would keep this between just us , but -- maureen : oh . i 'm just some woman you met in a bar . yeah , i understand . nikki : can i really trust you , maureen ? maureen : i swear on my soul , you got nothing to worry about . anything that 's said between us stays between you and me . nikki : well , thank you . thank you . i mean ... the tabloids -- you know , they just jump at any little thing . maureen : oh , like drinking ? nikki : that is a prime example of something being overblown . just because i need a break from the pressures of being mrs. victor newman from time to time ... maureen : that must be so hard . i mean , to be watched like that all the time ? and i bet it 's awfully lonely , too . nikki : yeah , it -- it can be . maureen : yeah . i know what it feels like to be alone , especially when my kids lived further away . but not there 's gon na be a baby , and there 's nothing better than a baby . nikki : that 's so true . maureen : you just got to keep focused on the positive things in life . so , sure , you must have something else terrific going on in your life right now . nikki : well , uh , my son nicholas is engaged . maureen : perfect ! perfect ! that 's a wonderful thing to celebrate . let us toast our kids ' good fortune . nikki : no . maureen : oh , my god . i 'm so sorry . oh , i - i - i totally forgot that you do n't really drink . faith : noah , come see the card i 'm making for the wedding ! noah : okay , kiddo ! i 'll be right there ! well , if nothing else , your impending marriage has made that little girl very , very happy . nick : i know how she feels . noah : all right ! let 's see what you got ! hilary : thanks for offering a shoulder to lean on , sharon , but i 'll be fine . sharon : are you sure ? hilary : yeah . neil and i will get through this . but , hey , you said that you had good news . sharon : yeah . nick and i are getting remarried . hilary : oh , my god ! congratulations ! sharon : thank you . yeah , i , um ... get to spend the rest of my life with the man i love . jack : neil , i remember the pain and anger and frustration of someone telling me i would never walk again . neil : how did you get through it ? jack : by fighting to get through it , with the help and care and courage of my loved ones . neil : [ sighs ] jack , this is -- this is so difficult ! jack : it is . it 's very difficult . but i hope this is the last time you will even contemplate divorce . neil , you should be embracing your wife 's support , not pushing it away . neil : you 're right . i went about this all wrong , did n't i ?

[ scene_break ] morgan : whoa . okay . what -- what did i do ? kiki : [ scoffs ] is that a serious question ? morgan : yeah . kiki : well , i never liked the idea of drugging michael -- not when you brought it up and not when we were doing it . especially not when our little sister was hurt . morgan : what are you talking about ? she was n't hurt . kiki : oh , you 're right . she only could have been hurt when michael , who we drugged , knocked over her stroller . and you know what the best part is ? it did n't even work . avery 's back with michael . morgan : okay , and that 's my fault ? kiki : it was a -- it was a stupid plan . morgan : yeah . that you went along with , kiki . kiki : because you talked me into it . morgan : you know what ? i was open to any and all suggestions . if you had a better idea , you should have spoke up . and thanks to my stupid plan , we were able to get avery back . kiki : yeah , for all of two seconds , before we were almost sent to prison ! morgan : are you in prison ? are you in prison ? are you locked up ? no , you 're not . kiki : you 're right -- i 'm not . because sonny traded avery for our freedom . okay ? sonny dropped the custody suit so michael would drop the charges against us . now we 're never gon na get avery back , and michael 's gon na have her forever . [ scene_break ] michael : anna could have carlos , but it just has n't made it to the news yet . sabrina : yeah , but it 's not like she ran out of here 20 minutes ago . it 's been hours . and anna knew that she did n't have a lot of time . she was headed straight for the pier . michael : maybe carlos managed to escape . sabrina : maybe . michael : [ sighs ] but then anna would have set up a manhunt , and that would have definitely been picked up by local affiliates , if not national . sabrina : sounds like you know a lot about this . michael : yeah . yeah , i 've been around a few arrests in my life . sabrina : and now you 're in charge of a conglomerate like elq . michael : [ chuckles ] you think i missed my calling ? sabrina : i 'm sure you would have made a very effective mob boss . michael : mm . sabrina : but i 'm glad that you went a different direction . michael : yeah , me too . you 're still worried . look , um ... being out of the loop is the worst part , okay , but i 'm sure you 're gon na hear something soon . sabrina : it just does n't feel right , michael . michael : waiting for word never does . your instinct is always to go to the darkest place . sabrina : but what if my instinct is right ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : it was nothing but a stroke of bad luck . shawn was trying to hit jake and got hayden instead . anna : is she gon na make it ? elizabeth : we do n't know . she 's in surgery now . in fact , i 've got to get back to the hospital and see how it 's going . sloane : i 'll check in with my people , as well . thank you very much for the update . elizabeth : of course . anna , i am so sorry about duke . so sorry . anna : thank you . [ scene_break ] jake : i held the gun , but i did n't fire it , so the cops had to let me go . sam : okay , well , i just do n't understand why you 're letting everyone , including sonny , think that you are the one that murdered duke . you 're making yourself a target . jake : and now hayden paid the price . sam : come on , i do n't want you to blame yourself . jake : it 's too late for that . sam : no , i want you to understand that you did not kill duke , so why wo n't you allow yourself to be publicly exonerated ?

[ scene_break ] alexis : it is unconscionable for the hospital to make that kind of mistake . you do not just cremate a baby when the parents want him buried . julian : the mother . i had no say . alexis : either way . it 's wrong , and i 'll sue . it 's a lawsuit i can win . julian : to what end , alexis ? i ... mean , right now , i have more money than i even know what to do with . alexis : it 's the principle . it 's wrong . julian : okay . you may be right , but it 's not gon na bring my son back . and , honestly , that 's the only outcome that i want right now , so let 's just ... [ breathes deeply ] alexis : i 'm sorry . i know that i keep saying that . i - i do n't know what else to say . julian : [ clears throat ] do you know that they gave me this at the hospital ? [ chuckles ] alexis : it 's really small . julian : it 's amazing , is n't it , that something this small could actually fit around somebody 's wrist ? this is the only thing i have left of him . this is the only thing i have left of my son .

[ scene_break ] olivia : [ sighs ] no matter how i feel about julian jerome , i just ... i hate that i 'm causing him this kind of pain . dante : he took it pretty bad , huh ? olivia : can you blame him ? dante : no . but i ca n't blame you , either . you do some drastic stuff when you 're looking after your kid . olivia : i know . and i know ... i know what i 'm asking you , honey . i - i know that i 'm putting you in a terrible position . that 's why i lied to you . you 're an officer of the law , for god sakes . what i 'm doing here is blatantly illegal , but i 'm ... i 'm begging you , dante . i 'm begging you to have my back on this . please . please do n't tell julian the truth . [ scene_break ] morgan : tell me i 'm wrong . tell me you did n't kiss me . kiki : you know that i did . morgan : okay , then . kiki : it was just another huge mistake . morgan : why ? because michael got jealous ? or maybe that 's the part you liked . kiki : [ scoffs ] excuse me ? morgan : you know what , kiki ? you admitted that you still had feelings for the guy . kiki : no , that is not true . you asked me if i still had feelings for him , and i told you that would be hard , considering the way that he 's treated me . morgan : uh - huh , and that 's not exactly an answer , it is ? kiki : oh , my god ! morgan : so , what is it ? it 's like he had some hold on you . he always has -- even when we were married . kiki : oh , please , yes , let 's talk about that so - called marriage and how you lied to me the entire time . morgan : you know what ? and you still could n't get him out of your mind . so , what is it ? is it because he thinks he 's better than everyone else ?

[ scene_break ] sam : in a way , i can actually sympathize with hayden because you , my friend , are not an easy mark . jake : ha . why do you say that ? [ clears throat ] sam : why ? well , i do n't know . hayden said it herself at the garage that you did n't fully ever buy her story . jake : i tried . it 's not because i did n't want to . let me put it this way . sam : what ? jake : as angry as i was to find out that hayden played me , i was mostly just relieved . sam : i bet you were . jake : so , since you obviously have some expertise in this sort of thing ... sam : yeah . jake : ... what do you think ? do you think , uh ... do you think she 's lying to me ? sam : no . i do n't . because it 's not like she asked you for money . she was willing to give up the information for free . jake : it 's ironic . the woman who lied to me might be the only person to tell me who i really am .

[ scene_break ] anna : jake ? elizabeth : i know he was called in for questioning , and he 's the top suspect in duke 's murder , but -- sloane : we ca n't comment on an ongoing investigation . elizabeth : i - i know . i totally get that . but just because everybody thinks jake did it does n't give sonny the right to kill him . sloane : what ? anna : what ? what , did something happened ? elizabeth : you do n't know ? anna : no . elizabeth : shawn butler tried to shoot jake today , but someone else wound up taking the bullet .

[ scene_break ] morgan : whoa . okay . what -- what did i do ? kiki : [ scoffs ] is that a serious question ? morgan : yeah . kiki : well , i never liked the idea of drugging michael -- not when you brought it up and not when we were doing it . especially not when our little sister was hurt . morgan : what are you talking about ? she was n't hurt . kiki : oh , you 're right . she only could have been hurt when michael , who we drugged , knocked over her stroller . and you know what the best part is ? it did n't even work . avery 's back with michael . morgan : okay , and that 's my fault ? kiki : it was a -- it was a stupid plan . morgan : yeah . that you went along with , kiki . kiki : because you talked me into it . morgan : you know what ? i was open to any and all suggestions . if you had a better idea , you should have spoke up . and thanks to my stupid plan , we were able to get avery back . kiki : yeah , for all of two seconds , before we were almost sent to prison ! morgan : are you in prison ? are you in prison ? are you locked up ? no , you 're not . kiki : you 're right -- i 'm not . because sonny traded avery for our freedom . okay ? sonny dropped the custody suit so michael would drop the charges against us . now we 're never gon na get avery back , and michael 's gon na have her forever . [ scene_break ] michael : anna could have carlos , but it just has n't made it to the news yet . sabrina : yeah , but it 's not like she ran out of here 20 minutes ago . it 's been hours . and anna knew that she did n't have a lot of time . she was headed straight for the pier . michael : maybe carlos managed to escape . sabrina : maybe . michael : [ sighs ] but then anna would have set up a manhunt , and that would have definitely been picked up by local affiliates , if not national . sabrina : sounds like you know a lot about this . michael : yeah . yeah , i 've been around a few arrests in my life . sabrina : and now you 're in charge of a conglomerate like elq . michael : [ chuckles ] you think i missed my calling ? sabrina : i 'm sure you would have made a very effective mob boss . michael : mm . sabrina : but i 'm glad that you went a different direction . michael : yeah , me too . you 're still worried . look , um ... being out of the loop is the worst part , okay , but i 'm sure you 're gon na hear something soon . sabrina : it just does n't feel right , michael . michael : waiting for word never does . your instinct is always to go to the darkest place . sabrina : but what if my instinct is right ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : it was nothing but a stroke of bad luck . shawn was trying to hit jake and got hayden instead . anna : is she gon na make it ? elizabeth : we do n't know . she 's in surgery now . in fact , i 've got to get back to the hospital and see how it 's going . sloane : i 'll check in with my people , as well . thank you very much for the update . elizabeth : of course . anna , i am so sorry about duke . so sorry . anna : thank you .

[ scene_break ] alexis : it is unconscionable for the hospital to make that kind of mistake . you do not just cremate a baby when the parents want him buried . julian : the mother . i had no say . alexis : either way . it 's wrong , and i 'll sue . it 's a lawsuit i can win . julian : to what end , alexis ? i ... mean , right now , i have more money than i even know what to do with . alexis : it 's the principle . it 's wrong . julian : okay . you may be right , but it 's not gon na bring my son back . and , honestly , that 's the only outcome that i want right now , so let 's just ... [ breathes deeply ] alexis : i 'm sorry . i know that i keep saying that . i - i do n't know what else to say . julian : [ clears throat ] do you know that they gave me this at the hospital ? [ chuckles ] alexis : it 's really small . julian : it 's amazing , is n't it , that something this small could actually fit around somebody 's wrist ? this is the only thing i have left of him . this is the only thing i have left of my son .

this is not chump change . no , ma'am . we can more than get by on what i make . and if everything pans out with my music and your singing , we 'll be making tons of money . whitney : yeah , well , money 's nice , but it 's hard to put a price on the change of seasons we have here in new england , leaves turning in the autumn , the magic of winter 's first snowfall . chad : baby , we can have seasons . as soon as i prove myself and make more money , we can buy that place up in tahoe , and that , with our beach pad in malibu , baby , we will have more weather than you will know what to do with . imagine , long walks on the beach , watching the sun set , waves crashing against the shores . whitney : we have waves here , too , and the best seafood on earth . come on . do n't even tell me that you 've had a better lobster than what you 've had here . chad : ok . all right , i 've never had a lobster until i moved here . whitney : you see ? see what i 'm saying ? chad : whitney , this is n't about lobsters or leaves or how much houses cost . at least , it should n't be . it 's about the two of us and whether we 're going to be together , have a future . i mean , you say to me you love me more than anything else , and i say right back i love you with all of my heart . wawant you to be with me , whitney , for keeps . and you can do that . just say yes . just say you 'll come to l.a. with me . mrs. wallace : no , please ! help me ! help me ! help me , please ! please . she 's going to kill me before my head hits the pillow . or she maybe even use the pillow to -- to kill me . no , please -- please , you got to save me . save me . oh , please , saints and angels in heaven , please let this woman deliver me from my demon seed of a daughter ! beth : it 's terrible to be both insane and incontinent . but she is my mother , and it 's up to me to take care of her . mrs. wallace : no ! no . beth : i love her more than i can say , but -- mrs . wallace : agh ! beth : sometimes , she just needs tough love . mrs. wallace : no . beth : now , you shut up . i 'm taking you to your room . mrs. wallace : no , please , if you do n't stop r , r , i 'm going to be toe - tagged before sunup ! nurse : not so fast ! now , nobody 's going anywhere until i know the meaning of all this ! who is this sheridan person ? and why do you want to kill her ? antonio : luis , what 's wrong ? why are you raising your voice to theresa like that ? theresa : well , luis is just upset that there is someone out there trying to hurt sheridan . right , luis ? luis : yeah , that 's right . just the thought that someone 's trying to burn sheridan alive makes me sick . and it 's making me angry . it 's making me damn angry ! antonio : i hear you . luis : and now that theresa and little ethan are here , too , they 're exposed to the threat , and just the thought that they could get caught in the crossfire 's making me nuts , all right ? antonio : well , it 's up to us to protect them . we have to look after our loved ones . luis : yeah , that 's right , we do . luis : i 'm just going to dim the lights so we 're not such easy targets from outside , all right ? antonio : that 's a good idea . luis : i 've got an officer posted at the gate , but someone could breach security , you know ? it 's just better safe than sorry . sheridan : i hate that this is happening . i hate even more that you 've all been dragged into this because of me . antonio : sheridan , it 's not your fault that someone is out there trying to hurt you . and like i said , they 're going to have to come through me first . you are my wife , and you 're carrying my baby . and i 'm going to stay by your side until we find the scum that 's trying to hurt you . sheridan : excuse me . antonio : hey , younonow what ? it 's been a long night . you 're pregnant , i 'm sure you 're tired , and you need to go to bed now , ok ? sheridan : but luis -- and theresa are here . antonio : no arguments , ok , mrs . lopez fitzgerald ? i 'm your husband , and i say go to bed now . so come on . come on . sheridan : good night , everyone . luis : tonio , where do you think you 're going ? antonio : to bed with my wife . luis : no , you 're not . whitney : this is a huge , huge decision . i stst have n't made up my mind yet . but i 'm not saying no . chad : you 're not saying yes , either . whitney : baby , i need more time . this is huge for me . i mean , the idea of picking up my life , moving across country 3,000 miles away from everything that i 've ever known . and if i do this , there will be no chance of me ever reconciling with my father . he 'll see me moving away as a slap in the face and my disrespecting him totally . chad : you tolde e that there 's no chance of you making up with your father as it is , that once t.c . russell makes up his mind , there 's no going back . remember ? whitney : i know , i know , but maybe i was wrong . chad : or maybe you moving out to l.a. with me will actually help your chances of patching things up with your father . whitney : ok , how do you figure that ? chad : well , like they say , absence makes the heart grow fonder . maybe if he misses you enough , he 'll soften up about us being a couple . whitney : i do n't know about that . but i do really love you and i want to be with you , but i dot t know if i can just -- just pick up and leave my folks . and what about you ? what about your parents ? you came to harmony to find your real parents , and you have n't done that yet . chad : whitney , i gave up . i told you that . whitney : but maybe you should n't have . maybe you should be trying harder is what you should be doing . chad : whatorore can i do ? whitney : stay here in harmony and find your real mother and father . and i 'll help you . julian : well , i know it 's rather far - fetched , but do you think that -- that chad harris could be our son ? eve : julian , i 'm not going to lie to you . i thought the same thing for a while . julian : you did ? eve : i was all but convinced of it . julian : that chad was the very baby that you thought was stolen from the hospital ? eve : oh . oh , my sweet darling . oh . oh , you are such a beautiful boy . yes , you are . and you 're all right . oh , my baby is fine . oh . eve : julian ? is that you ? who are you ? [ knocking on glass ] eve : who are you ? what are you doing ? stop it ! no ! please , somebody ! help , he 's taking my baby ! no ! my baby ! myababy ! no ! julian : imagine having our son , a baby conceived in love , back with us again . nothing could give me greater joy than to be father to our son . eve : julian -- julian , chad 's not our son . julian : how do you know for certain ? eve : i gave a paternity test . julian : you did ? when ? eve : it was a while ago . he asked me to do it . and between my curiosity and feeling sorry for him , i could n't refuse . remember , he only came here because he thought that he might have been born in harmony . julian : oh , right , there was something about some old newspaper clipping that he found that -- eve : that led him to orville . julian : oh . the old coot with the blasted bird statue . i shudder to think of the mayhem that ensued . i mean , the two of us searching the town dump for that bird that supposedly held the pictures of us making love . eve : well , the point is that chad never learned anything from orville . julian : or from your friend -- crystal . she was mistaken for sheridan and killed before she could tell chad what she knew about his parents . eve : it was right after that that i ran chad 's d.n.a . against everyone who had been a patient in the hospital -- including you and i . it came back no match . he 's not our son . you look so sad , julian . julian : oh -- indeed . i know it 's most likely that our son died at birth , as the hospital said . oh , if he were alive -- if the vision you had was true -- i mean , if he had been spirited away from the hospital that night to be raised somewhere else by someone else -- oh , how i would love to meet him , to get to know him , to be close to a part of you . eve : really ? julian : really . i did n't tell you this before , but when you first told me that you thought our baby had been stolen from the hospital , i -- i was deeply affected , so much so that i -- i tried to learn the truth . i hired a private detective to find our son . eve : you did ? well , what did he find out ? did he find our baby ? t.c . : liz , what is it ? what 's happened to eve ? liz : now , t.c . , i think it 's best if you stay calm and do n't get overly excited until we know all the facts . t.c . : damn it , liz , what happened to eve ? liz : ok . apparently , ththere 's been an accident . t.c . : oh , my god . eve 's been in an accident ? liz : a car wreck . t.c . : no . god , no , not eve ! so , it was called cattle point . of the nation , and subsequentlyne of th here . your cruise director , ron singer : you are my passion for life antonio : what do you mean , i ca n't go to bed with my wife ? luis : i meant -- i meant that you ca n't go to sleep until we get another officer posted at the gate . now , i just want to make sure that whoever 's after sheridan does n't get another chance to hurt her again , all right ? now , i ca n't stay here all night , so you got to stay up and guard this place till backup gets here , all right ? antonio : all right , sure . whatever it takes to protect my wife and baby . theresa : i 'll keep you company . antonio : ok , sounds great , theresa . and i 'll visit just as soon as i tuck sheridann , n , ok ? sheridan : good night , theresa , luis . luis : damn it ! i ca n't take this any longer . antonio is in there snuggling with sheridan , thinking that he 's got a future with her , thinking that the baby that she 's carrying is his ? theresa : luis , luis , i know that you are frustrated , but i 'm sure this will all be over soon . luis : yeah ? because people have been saying that for months now and nothing has changed ! now , i ought to just go in there . i 'm -- theresa : no , no , no , no , no ! please do n't upset sheridan now , not in the state that she is in ! luis : what is that supposed to mean ? theresa : earlier , sheridan was talking about disappearing , you know , dropping off the face of the earth . luis : what ? theresa : she thought it would be better for you and antonio if she was n't around anymore -- you know , constantly coming between you and our brother . she thought if she left , you guys would just get over her and move on with your lives . luis : oh , my god . she ca n't do that . she ca n't just leave . theresa : i know . just calm down , because i think that i talked her out of it , but i 'm still worried about the stress that she 's feeling , you know ? we need to be gentle with her now , you know , not put any more pressure on her about forcing things with antonio . luis : i could kick myself for not seeing this . but i 've got to find a way to let her know that i ca n't live without her . theresa : wait ! luis : what -- theresa : and people say that i 'm impulsive ? luis : what ? theresa : luis ! you ca n't go to sheridan now , ok ? antonio may be clueless about a lot of things that go on around here , but even he would become suspicious of you barging in to their bedroom . and besides , you would be putting more pressure on sheridan , which is the last thing that she needs . luis : all right . but there 's going to be a lot less pressure on her if she realizes that leaving harmony is not the answer . i got to find a way in to see her . all right , i got an idea . all right , listen -- when antonio comes out here , you just keep him occupied , all right ? theresa : why ? what are you up to ? luis : just do as i say , ok ? theresa : all right . luis : oh , good , you 're here . look , i 'm just going to head out to my cruiser now that you are and radio headquarters on a secure channel . i just want to get a couple of more officers out here patrolling the grounds . it 's a big place , you know ? i think it 's too big for just one guard to cover at the main gate . hey -- thanks for helping me out , ok ? theresa : well , you know me -- anything for true love , and that 's what you and sheridan have . luis : yeah . nurse : who is sheridan and why are you trying to kill her ? beth : you 're taking my mother 's ramblings way too seriously . if -- if she were any flakier , her picture would be on a box of cereal . mrs. wallace : oh , i heard that , missy ! my mind is as sharp as the ax that beth tried to kill me with once , and now -nonow she is after sheridan crane ! nurse : the sheridan crane ? mrs. wallace : yes , the one and only ! see , bethie has been after her for months -- months ! but of course , she failed as she does at everything else , but it 's only made her more determined , and now -- now that sheridan is pregnant , she could end up killing her baby , too ! i have tried to tell her she 's going to go straight to hell if she does it , but will she listen to me ? no ! she wo n't even listen to the angel that came to try and warn her ! beth : angels , axes , assassination plots -- i told you my mother is off of her rocker . mrs. wallace : oh . you are the one who is a few cards short of a full deck , missy ! she hired an ape to take care of me ! beth : precious is an orangutan , mother , highly trained like a seeing - eye dog . now , enough of these nutty notes and all your crazy talk . i 'm taking you to bed . mrs. wallace : oh , no . no . beth : she 'll -- she 'll have forgotten all about this nonsense by in the morning . mrs. wallace : nonsense , huh ? look , look -- no , no ! see , i told you she was up to no good ! no ! nurse : this could drop an elephant at 40 paces . beth : ok , give -- give me that . that 's mine ! nurse : you -- you stole this from the hospital , did n't you ? beth : no . nurse : do n't bother lying . i w w you leaving the drug supply closet . that 's why i followed you ! beth : ok , you need -- you need to go ! nurse : do n't bother denying it . you are trying to kill sheridan crane ! beth : you 're as wacked as my mother . now , get out ! nurse : if you do n't admit what you 're up to , i 'm going to the police . mrs. wallace : good luck trying to get her to tell the truth ! she 's a walking loony tune ! beth : all right ! all right , it 's true ! yeah , i 'm crazy , crazy to get revenge on sheridan . she ruined my life , ruined it ! i hate sheridan crane with a passion , and , yes , i want her dead ! dead , dead , dead ! h @ t.c . : eve was in a car accident ? where is she ? i got to go help her ! liz : t.c . ! t.c . , calm down . now , apparently , eve is physically ok . t.c . : well , how do you know that ? liz : i was just talking to a mechanic . he said that eve was in an accident and her car is at his shop being repaired . now , he called to find out ifif you wanted a dent repaired while he was at it . t.c . : well , why did n't eve call me herself ? i mean , i can go and help her . liz : i really ca n't say , t.c . t.c . : well , i got to find her . did the mechanic say where she is ? liz : yes . he said that she 's at the long ridge diner waiting while he fixed it . he did n't have the number to the diner handy , so he found eve 's home number in the car and that 's why he called here looking for her . t.c . : i got to go . i mean , liz , she 's out there by herself . i got to help her . liz : oh , i ca n't wait to see t.c . 's face when he realizes that his precious wife is not alone , but with the one man that he 'd just as soon kill rather than look at -- julian crane . julian : i 'm sorry , eve , but the detective i hired failed to find our son . eve : oh . julian : i even dared to confront father about it . i asked him point - blank if your memory was true , that my baby had n't died , in fact , it lived , it was kidnapped from the hospital as you helplessly looked on , and he swore that he knew nothing about it . eve : wow . we both know how trustworthy alistair is . you know , he would do anything to keep a black crane from cropping up and tainting your family 's blue blood . julian : even so , even though we both would love it if our son was still alive -- i mean , god knows i would -- i honestly do n't think thate e is . eve : please do n't say that . julian : i put a lot into trying to find our son when you first told me of your memory . the man i hired was given unlimited resources and could n't find a thing . if our son is still alive , it 's as if he 's vanished off the face of the earth . i honestly do n't know what else to do or where to look . chad : how are you going to help me find my parents , huh ? things with orville did n't work out . that singer crystal -- she died before she got a chance to tell me what she knew . even the d.n.a . test your mother ran at the hospital was a bust . what more can i do that i have n't done already ? whitney : i do n't know , but i 'm sure if we really think , we can come up with something that could really -- chad : thank you , but , no , thank you . i 've had enough of hanging out in harmony trying to find my parents . i need to move on with my life , and i 've got a real shot of doing this with this deal in l.a. all i got to do is pack my bags and i could be gone tomorrow . the only thing holding me back is you . so , please , make me the happiest man on the planet -- say you 'll come with me . it 's the chance of a lifetime for both of us . say you 'll do it , whit . please say yes to our future together . theresa 's voice : i hope luis is n't making a mistake sneaking into sheridan 's room . if she gets scared and screams , antonio would rush to her rescue , and when the dust settled , i 'd be down one brother . antonio : theresa , you see anything outside ? theresa : oh . no . nothing . i 'm just glad that you stayed up to keep guard until more police get here . antonio : well , nothing 's more important to me than protecting my family . you know , i was gone such a long time . it 's nice to be back , you know ? be able to look after you and little ethan , especially sheridan . she 's the love of my life . i do n't know what i 'd do if anything ever happened to her . theresa : well , i am sure nothing bad will happen as long as you 're here . antonio : well , you got that right because if anyone ever tried to lay a hand on her , i 'd kill them .

liz : uh -- no , t.c . it 's -- it 's not whitney . t.c . : then who is it ? liz : just give me a minute and i 'll tell you . listen , i 'm sorry to keep you waiting , but i 'm sure that dr . russell would want everything fixed . rusty : fine . i 'll take care of it . liz : yes , and thank you very much for calling . t.c . : liz , what is broken that eve would want fixed ? liz : now , t.c . , i do n't want to upset you , but i really think that you should sit down . t.c . : no , i do n't want to sit down . i want to know what 's going on with my wife . eve : really ? so chad reminds you of a crane ? julian : yes . i mean , not the way he looks , of course , but the way he acts , his whole -- you know , his whole demeanor . eve : well , i do n't see it , julian . i do n't think he 's like a crane at all . he 's honest and he 's decent and he 's even noble at times . julian : oh , well , he 's also driven and ambitious , and i do n't think he lets anything get in the way of what he wants , and that , my dear eve , is a true mark of a crane . besides , there 's something that 's familiar about him . maybe that 's why t.c . hates chad so much -- because chad reminds him of me . eve : maybe . julian : i could n't thi of anyone t.c . would hate more than a younger version of me . oh , my god . eve : what ? julian : it could n't be . do you know that fog - induced vision that you had that our baby did n't die , it was stolen from the hospital ? i know it 's totally insane , but -- well , could chad harris be our son ? chad : say yes . say you will move to l.a. with me . whitney : baby , i love you more than anything on this earth . and i 'm sure living out there with you would be so wonderful -- chad : no , it 'll be incredible . i mean , l.a. is off the hook . there 's no snow . no bitter cold winters like here in harmony . and all the weird stuff that happens out there happens in the movies , not real life . whitney : yeah ? chad : i mean , l.a . does n't have houses that get sucked into hell or asteroids taking direct aim out of nowhere , demons popping up everywhere . whitney : no , but they have earthquakes and mudslides and something they call the fire season . chad : yeah , but all that stuff happens naturally , not like the supernatural stuff that happens around here . whitney : ok , still , it 's going to be very expensive living in california . chad : did you see the contract they 're offering me ? this is not chump change . no , ma'am . we can more than get by on what i make . and if everything pans out with my music and your singing , we 'll be making tons of money . whitney : yeah , well , money 's nice , but it 's hard to put a price on the change of seasons we have here in new england , leaves turning in the autumn , the magic of winter 's first snowfall . chad : baby , we can have seasons . as soon as i prove myself and make more money , we can buy that place up in tahoe , and that , with our beach pad in malibu , baby , we will have more weather than you will know what to do with . imagine , long walks on the beach , watching the sun set , waves crashing against the shores . whitney : we have waves here , too , and the best seafood on earth . come on . do n't even tell me that you 've had a better lobster than what you 've had here . chad : ok . all right , i 've never had a lobster until i moved here . whitney : you see ? see what i 'm saying ? chad : whitney , this is n't about lobsters or leaves or how much houses cost . at least , it should n't be . it 's about the two of us and whether we 're going to be together , have a future . i mean , you say to me you love me more than anything else , and i say right back i love you with all of my heart . wawant you to be with me , whitney , for keeps . and you can do that . just say yes . just say you 'll come to l.a. with me . mrs. wallace : no , please ! help me ! help me ! help me , please ! please . she 's going to kill me before my head hits the pillow . or she maybe even use the pillow to -- to kill me . no , please -- please , you got to save me . save me . oh , please , saints and angels in heaven , please let this woman deliver me from my demon seed of a daughter ! beth : it 's terrible to be both insane and incontinent . but she is my mother , and it 's up to me to take care of her . mrs. wallace : no ! no . beth : i love her more than i can say , but -- mrs . wallace : agh ! beth : sometimes , she just needs tough love . mrs. wallace : no . beth : now , you shut up . i 'm taking you to your room . mrs. wallace : no , please , if you do n't stop r , r , i 'm going to be toe - tagged before sunup ! nurse : not so fast ! now , nobody 's going anywhere until i know the meaning of all this ! who is this sheridan person ? and why do you want to kill her ? antonio : luis , what 's wrong ? why are you raising your voice to theresa like that ? theresa : well , luis is just upset that there is someone out there trying to hurt sheridan . right , luis ? luis : yeah , that 's right . just the thought that someone 's trying to burn sheridan alive makes me sick . and it 's making me angry . it 's making me damn angry ! antonio : i hear you . luis : and now that theresa and little ethan are here , too , they 're exposed to the threat , and just the thought that they could get caught in the crossfire 's making me nuts , all right ? antonio : well , it 's up to us to protect them . we have to look after our loved ones . luis : yeah , that 's right , we do . luis : i 'm just going to dim the lights so we 're not such easy targets from outside , all right ? antonio : that 's a good idea . luis : i 've got an officer posted at the gate , but someone could breach security , you know ? it 's just better safe than sorry . sheridan : i hate that this is happening . i hate even more that you 've all been dragged into this because of me . antonio : sheridan , it 's not your fault that someone is out there trying to hurt you . and like i said , they 're going to have to come through me first . you are my wife , and you 're carrying my baby . and i 'm going to stay by your side until we find the scum that 's trying to hurt you . sheridan : excuse me . antonio : hey , younonow what ? it 's been a long night . you 're pregnant , i 'm sure you 're tired , and you need to go to bed now , ok ? sheridan : but luis -- and theresa are here . antonio : no arguments , ok , mrs . lopez fitzgerald ? i 'm your husband , and i say go to bed now . so come on . come on . sheridan : good night , everyone . luis : tonio , where do you think you 're going ? antonio : to bed with my wife . luis : no , you 're not . whitney : this is a huge , huge decision . i stst have n't made up my mind yet . but i 'm not saying no . chad : you 're not saying yes , either . whitney : baby , i need more time . this is huge for me . i mean , the idea of picking up my life , moving across country 3,000 miles away from everything that i 've ever known . and if i do this , there will be no chance of me ever reconciling with my father . he 'll see me moving away as a slap in the face and my disrespecting him totally . chad : you tolde e that there 's no chance of you making up with your father as it is , that once t.c . russell makes up his mind , there 's no going back . remember ? whitney : i know , i know , but maybe i was wrong . chad : or maybe you moving out to l.a. with me will actually help your chances of patching things up with your father . whitney : ok , how do you figure that ? chad : well , like they say , absence makes the heart grow fonder . maybe if he misses you enough , he 'll soften up about us being a couple . whitney : i do n't know about that . but i do really love you and i want to be with you , but i dot t know if i can just -- just pick up and leave my folks . and what about you ? what about your parents ? you came to harmony to find your real parents , and you have n't done that yet . chad : whitney , i gave up . i told you that . whitney : but maybe you should n't have . maybe you should be trying harder is what you should be doing . chad : whatorore can i do ? whitney : stay here in harmony and find your real mother and father . and i 'll help you . julian : well , i know it 's rather far - fetched , but do you think that -- that chad harris could be our son ? eve : julian , i 'm not going to lie to you . i thought the same thing for a while . julian : you did ? eve : i was all but convinced of it . julian : that chad was the very baby that you thought was stolen from the hospital ? eve : oh . oh , my sweet darling . oh . oh , you are such a beautiful boy . yes , you are . and you 're all right . oh , my baby is fine . oh . eve : julian ? is that you ? who are you ? [ knocking on glass ] eve : who are you ? what are you doing ? stop it ! no ! please , somebody ! help , he 's taking my baby ! no ! my baby ! myababy ! no ! julian : imagine having our son , a baby conceived in love , back with us again . nothing could give me greater joy than to be father to our son . eve : julian -- julian , chad 's not our son . julian : how do you know for certain ? eve : i gave a paternity test . julian : you did ? when ? eve : it was a while ago . he asked me to do it . and between my curiosity and feeling sorry for him , i could n't refuse . remember , he only came here because he thought that he might have been born in harmony . julian : oh , right , there was something about some old newspaper clipping that he found that -- eve : that led him to orville . julian : oh . the old coot with the blasted bird statue . i shudder to think of the mayhem that ensued . i mean , the two of us searching the town dump for that bird that supposedly held the pictures of us making love . eve : well , the point is that chad never learned anything from orville . julian : or from your friend -- crystal . she was mistaken for sheridan and killed before she could tell chad what she knew about his parents . eve : it was right after that that i ran chad 's d.n.a . against everyone who had been a patient in the hospital -- including you and i . it came back no match . he 's not our son . you look so sad , julian . julian : oh -- indeed . i know it 's most likely that our son died at birth , as the hospital said . oh , if he were alive -- if the vision you had was true -- i mean , if he had been spirited away from the hospital that night to be raised somewhere else by someone else -- oh , how i would love to meet him , to get to know him , to be close to a part of you . eve : really ? julian : really . i did n't tell you this before , but when you first told me that you thought our baby had been stolen from the hospital , i -- i was deeply affected , so much so that i -- i tried to learn the truth . i hired a private detective to find our son . eve : you did ? well , what did he find out ? did he find our baby ? t.c . : liz , what is it ? what 's happened to eve ? liz : now , t.c . , i think it 's best if you stay calm and do n't get overly excited until we know all the facts . t.c . : damn it , liz , what happened to eve ? liz : ok . apparently , ththere 's been an accident . t.c . : oh , my god . eve 's been in an accident ? liz : a car wreck . t.c . : no . god , no , not eve ! so , it was called cattle point . of the nation , and subsequentlyne of th here . your cruise director , ron singer : you are my passion for life antonio : what do you mean , i ca n't go to bed with my wife ? luis : i meant -- i meant that you ca n't go to sleep until we get another officer posted at the gate . now , i just want to make sure that whoever 's after sheridan does n't get another chance to hurt her again , all right ? now , i ca n't stay here all night , so you got to stay up and guard this place till backup gets here , all right ? antonio : all right , sure . whatever it takes to protect my wife and baby . theresa : i 'll keep you company . antonio : ok , sounds great , theresa . and i 'll visit just as soon as i tuck sheridann , n , ok ? sheridan : good night , theresa , luis . luis : damn it ! i ca n't take this any longer . antonio is in there snuggling with sheridan , thinking that he 's got a future with her , thinking that the baby that she 's carrying is his ? theresa : luis , luis , i know that you are frustrated , but i 'm sure this will all be over soon . luis : yeah ? because people have been saying that for months now and nothing has changed ! now , i ought to just go in there . i 'm -- theresa : no , no , no , no , no ! please do n't upset sheridan now , not in the state that she is in ! luis : what is that supposed to mean ? theresa : earlier , sheridan was talking about disappearing , you know , dropping off the face of the earth . luis : what ? theresa : she thought it would be better for you and antonio if she was n't around anymore -- you know , constantly coming between you and our brother . she thought if she left , you guys would just get over her and move on with your lives . luis : oh , my god . she ca n't do that . she ca n't just leave . theresa : i know . just calm down , because i think that i talked her out of it , but i 'm still worried about the stress that she 's feeling , you know ? we need to be gentle with her now , you know , not put any more pressure on her about forcing things with antonio . luis : i could kick myself for not seeing this . but i 've got to find a way to let her know that i ca n't live without her . theresa : wait ! luis : what -- theresa : and people say that i 'm impulsive ? luis : what ? theresa : luis ! you ca n't go to sheridan now , ok ? antonio may be clueless about a lot of things that go on around here , but even he would become suspicious of you barging in to their bedroom . and besides , you would be putting more pressure on sheridan , which is the last thing that she needs . luis : all right . but there 's going to be a lot less pressure on her if she realizes that leaving harmony is not the answer . i got to find a way in to see her . all right , i got an idea . all right , listen -- when antonio comes out here , you just keep him occupied , all right ? theresa : why ? what are you up to ? luis : just do as i say , ok ? theresa : all right . luis : oh , good , you 're here . look , i 'm just going to head out to my cruiser now that you are and radio headquarters on a secure channel . i just want to get a couple of more officers out here patrolling the grounds . it 's a big place , you know ? i think it 's too big for just one guard to cover at the main gate . hey -- thanks for helping me out , ok ? theresa : well , you know me -- anything for true love , and that 's what you and sheridan have . luis : yeah . nurse : who is sheridan and why are you trying to kill her ? beth : you 're taking my mother 's ramblings way too seriously . if -- if she were any flakier , her picture would be on a box of cereal . mrs. wallace : oh , i heard that , missy ! my mind is as sharp as the ax that beth tried to kill me with once , and now -nonow she is after sheridan crane ! nurse : the sheridan crane ? mrs. wallace : yes , the one and only ! see , bethie has been after her for months -- months ! but of course , she failed as she does at everything else , but it 's only made her more determined , and now -- now that sheridan is pregnant , she could end up killing her baby , too ! i have tried to tell her she 's going to go straight to hell if she does it , but will she listen to me ? no ! she wo n't even listen to the angel that came to try and warn her ! beth : angels , axes , assassination plots -- i told you my mother is off of her rocker . mrs. wallace : oh . you are the one who is a few cards short of a full deck , missy ! she hired an ape to take care of me ! beth : precious is an orangutan , mother , highly trained like a seeing - eye dog . now , enough of these nutty notes and all your crazy talk . i 'm taking you to bed . mrs. wallace : oh , no . no . beth : she 'll -- she 'll have forgotten all about this nonsense by in the morning . mrs. wallace : nonsense , huh ? look , look -- no , no ! see , i told you she was up to no good ! no ! nurse : this could drop an elephant at 40 paces . beth : ok , give -- give me that . that 's mine ! nurse : you -- you stole this from the hospital , did n't you ? beth : no . nurse : do n't bother lying . i w w you leaving the drug supply closet . that 's why i followed you ! beth : ok , you need -- you need to go ! nurse : do n't bother denying it . you are trying to kill sheridan crane ! beth : you 're as wacked as my mother . now , get out ! nurse : if you do n't admit what you 're up to , i 'm going to the police . mrs. wallace : good luck trying to get her to tell the truth ! she 's a walking loony tune ! beth : all right ! all right , it 's true ! yeah , i 'm crazy , crazy to get revenge on sheridan . she ruined my life , ruined it ! i hate sheridan crane with a passion , and , yes , i want her dead ! dead , dead , dead ! h @ t.c . : eve was in a car accident ? where is she ? i got to go help her ! liz : t.c . ! t.c . , calm down . now , apparently , eve is physically ok . t.c . : well , how do you know that ? liz : i was just talking to a mechanic . he said that eve was in an accident and her car is at his shop being repaired . now , he called to find out ifif you wanted a dent repaired while he was at it . t.c . : well , why did n't eve call me herself ? i mean , i can go and help her . liz : i really ca n't say , t.c . t.c . : well , i got to find her . did the mechanic say where she is ? liz : yes . he said that she 's at the long ridge diner waiting while he fixed it . he did n't have the number to the diner handy , so he found eve 's home number in the car and that 's why he called here looking for her . t.c . : i got to go . i mean , liz , she 's out there by herself . i got to help her . liz : oh , i ca n't wait to see t.c . 's face when he realizes that his precious wife is not alone , but with the one man that he 'd just as soon kill rather than look at -- julian crane . julian : i 'm sorry , eve , but the detective i hired failed to find our son . eve : oh . julian : i even dared to confront father about it . i asked him point - blank if your memory was true , that my baby had n't died , in fact , it lived , it was kidnapped from the hospital as you helplessly looked on , and he swore that he knew nothing about it . eve : wow . we both know how trustworthy alistair is . you know , he would do anything to keep a black crane from cropping up and tainting your family 's blue blood . julian : even so , even though we both would love it if our son was still alive -- i mean , god knows i would -- i honestly do n't think thate e is . eve : please do n't say that . julian : i put a lot into trying to find our son when you first told me of your memory . the man i hired was given unlimited resources and could n't find a thing . if our son is still alive , it 's as if he 's vanished off the face of the earth . i honestly do n't know what else to do or where to look . chad : how are you going to help me find my parents , huh ? things with orville did n't work out . that singer crystal -- she died before she got a chance to tell me what she knew . even the d.n.a . test your mother ran at the hospital was a bust . what more can i do that i have n't done already ? whitney : i do n't know , but i 'm sure if we really think , we can come up with something that could really -- chad : thank you , but , no , thank you . i 've had enough of hanging out in harmony trying to find my parents . i need to move on with my life , and i 've got a real shot of doing this with this deal in l.a. all i got to do is pack my bags and i could be gone tomorrow . the only thing holding me back is you . so , please , make me the happiest man on the planet -- say you 'll come with me . it 's the chance of a lifetime for both of us . say you 'll do it , whit . please say yes to our future together . theresa 's voice : i hope luis is n't making a mistake sneaking into sheridan 's room . if she gets scared and screams , antonio would rush to her rescue , and when the dust settled , i 'd be down one brother . antonio : theresa , you see anything outside ? theresa : oh . no . nothing . i 'm just glad that you stayed up to keep guard until more police get here . antonio : well , nothing 's more important to me than protecting my family . you know , i was gone such a long time . it 's nice to be back , you know ? be able to look after you and little ethan , especially sheridan . she 's the love of my life . i do n't know what i 'd do if anything ever happened to her . theresa : well , i am sure nothing bad will happen as long as you 're here . antonio : well , you got that right because if anyone ever tried to lay a hand on her , i 'd kill them .

summer : austin 's out on bail . you ca n't just walk in here -- harding : can you step aside , please ? summer : no . austin : summer , it will be all right . just get leslie to straighten things out . summer : no , this is wrong . sharon : noah and courtney went to the station to find out what 's going on . nick : that 's good . harding : we know what 's going on . he shot a cop , he thought he 'd get away with it , he wo n't . jack : on what charge is austin being re - arrested ? harding : like i said , he violated the terms of his bail . nick : committing what crime ? harding : fraud . nick : what kind of fraud ? summer : that 's not true . sharon : how is that possible ? harding : well , considering that we 're in a church and you 're dressed for a wedding , i 'm guessing you did . summer : jack , please , do something . harding : oh , he already did . mr. abbott 's the one who tipped off the d.a . about this bogus wedding and how it 's just a sham so that you do n't have to testify against your new supposed husband . jack : but -- but i thought -- harding : well , you thought we were gon na drag your daughter out of here . nick : what ? ! jack : i talked to christine on the phone . harding : it 's all been taken care of . there will be no charges against summer . summer : yeah , and there should be no charges against austin either . harding : mr. abbott , this is your lucky day . you wanted your daughter away from this punk . you 're getting your wish . now , if you 'll step aside ... mariah : hello ? [ knock at door ] mariah : you do n't look surprised to see me . victor : i 'm not . mariah : are you having me watched ? victor : nicholas told me that he 'd given you the key to his house . this house is on my property , so i 'm obviously aware that you 're here . mariah : what do you want ? victor : what do i want ? to talk to my son . mariah : nobody else is here . victor : well , i 'll wait him until he comes back . mariah : great . knock yourself out . victor : hold it just one minute , will you ? while i 'm waiting , you and i should discuss a few things . neil : you want to answer why you keep dancing around like this ? cane : i did n't know that 's what i was doing . neil : yeah , that 's exactly what you 're doing when it comes to discussions about my wife . you keep vacillating . one minute , you 're supporting my choices , the next you 're questioning them . cane : listen , that is not my intention . neil : i 'm your father - in - law . we 're family . if you 've got something to say , just come out and say it . cane : are you sure this is what hilary really wants ? neil : i just told you . hilary 's dream is to have a house like this . cane : i 'm not talking about the house . hilary : please . do n't go . devon : why not ? hilary : genoa city 's your home . you belong here . devon : okay . are these your clothes or not ? hilary : no . tell me why you 're really going . devon : 'cause there 's got to be more to life than this . that 's why . hilary : how can you say that when you have so much ? devon : why does it always come back to the money ? hilary : that 's not what i 'm talking about . devon : i can afford to go and see the world , so why not do that ? hilary : globetrotting and slacking off -- that 's your goal in life ? devon : well , why not ? i mean , really . nothing and no one is tying me down here . hilary : it 's so sudden . you 're taking off so soon . you 're making this huge decision . why ? devon : i just have to go . hilary : be honest . okay , if it has nothing to do with me , then just tell me -- devon : all right , fine . it has everything to do with you . hilary : but you just said that -- devon : i know what i said . you want me to be honest . this is me being honest . hilary : [ sighs ] devon : why do n't you be honest with me now too and tell me why you really want me to stay ? neil : what exactly is it that you think that my wife wants that i 'm not giving to her ? cane : look , you move too fast , you get too settled -- neil : if hilary and i did n't want to settle down , we 'd be living together instead of being married . cane : do you think that hilary 's ready for this kind of responsibility ? neil : [ scoffs ] what are you saying ? cane : well , you might be , but is she ? i mean , she has a career she wants to pursue . neil : do you really think that i 'm gon na lock her away in this house and throw away the key ? cane : no , i 'm not saying that . i just do n't understand why you have this need to move so fast . neil : you think that i 'm overcompensating because hilary 's younger than i am . cane : no , i 'm not saying that . i 'm not saying that . neil : okay , because this house -- it is n't about me . it 's about hilary 's longing for stability , for a place that 's not mine or hers but ours . cane : but then why did n't you feel the need to include her in selecting the house ? neil : because it 's my gift to her . not just a house -- a home . a home that she 's never had before . and as much as this house is gon na make her happy , man , it 's gon na make me happier to be able to give it to her . cane : so , you 're assuming that this is what she wants without discussing it with her ? neil : i appreciate the advice , but i really did n't ask you for it . cane : all right , listen , i do n't mean to intrude . i really do n't , okay ? neil : and for the record , i know exactly what i 'm doing here . i have chosen hilary to be my wife . there is everything right with planning for our future together . lily : wow . i swear there 's no escaping her . when i 'm not seeing hilary , i 'm hearing about her . neil : okay , have you seen hilary in the club anywhere ? lily : no , i have n't seen her , not since she left with devon . hilary : i want you to stay because a lot of people here -- they depend on you . devon : people ? plural ? hilary : yes . devon : like who ? hilary : like ... devon : you must be talking about the club . but do n't worry , 'cause i 'm very confident that the club will thrive in my absence , and i think that lily and cane will do just fine without me being here . hilary : i 'm not talking about the club . devon : okay . who are you talking about , then ? hilary : your family . you know , your father , for one . your sister , your nieces , your nephews , your baby brother moses . devon : that 's a long list . and someone 's missing . hilary : you know , when i did all that research on neil 's family , i read about you , about how you got into all of this trouble when you were a teenager . devon : and then neil and dru took me in . my dad is good at that -- making a home and making you feel wanted . hilary : you have a life now full of a long list of people ... who love you . devon : i 'm not leaving forever . hilary : really ? it 's just gon na be like a few weeks ? devon : it 's gon na be for however long it takes to get over you . hilary : do n't say that . devon : because right now , it is killing me to know that you chose the wrong guy . hilary : do n't . devon : and it 's killing me that i feel the way i do about my father 's wife . hilary : please , devon . devon : and it 's killing me to stand in this room with you right now knowing that you have feelings for me , too . hilary : [ sighs ] devon : why am i gon na stay here ... and torture myself when nothing 's gon na change ? hilary : maybe ... maybe it will . victor : i 'd like you to answer some questions . mariah : what do you want to know ? victor : how did you come to share a house with my son and with sharon when not too long ago you tried to gaslight her ? mariah : sharon took an interest in me . victor : oh , yeah ? then she invited you to be a house guest ? mariah : the place that i was staying -- let 's just say my circumstances changed . victor : uh - huh . and nicholas approved of this ? mariah : i was surprised , but nick did n't completely hate the idea of me moving in here . victor : really ? mariah : it 's funny how things work sometimes . i got a job and a sweet setup . sharon got nick . and you ... oh , that 's right . you never did get that secret that you were looking for -- the one that sharon was hiding from nick , the one that was gon na hurt him ? victor : yes , and i tried to get you to unearth it . paid you a lot of money to do that , but you did n't . mariah : things work out that way sometimes . hey , the last time that i ran in to you ... victor : mm - hmm ? mariah : ... you said something about paying me if i was still useful to you . victor : did i do that ? mariah : and now , here i am . i 'm getting closer to sharon . i 'm living under her roof . i might be in a position to finish the job you initially hired me for . harding : hands behind your back , travers . austin : summer , i 'll be fine . summer : no . jack : this -- this is n't necessary , detective . harding : you do n't want to interfere , mr. abbott . jack : this is a mistake that i set in motion . i was an overactive parent trying to keep his daughter a child , and i overcompensated . look , this is not fraud . there is no false pretense here . these two are getting married because they love each other . summer : yes , we do . austin : it 's the truth . jack : the only reason for this marriage is to commit themselves to each other before his trial and eventual incarceration . harding : come on . you know how many times i 've seen this before ? jack : seen what , exactly ? harding : this . a father who ticked off his daughter something fierce and now will say anything he has to get back on her good side . nick : jack is telling the truth . summer and austin just swore their love to each other . i was a witness . sharon : so was i . kelly : i was , too . faith : me , too . jack : obviously we 're getting nowhere with the detective . go ahead . do what you have to do . take him in . sharon : nick , you ca n't let him do this . you have to stop him . summer : jack , what are you saying ? jack : i 'm just saying it 's up to the detective . if he wants to end up with egg on his face , that 's his business . harding : what for ? righteous arrest ? jack : it is not a righteous arrest . there is no fraud here . when you get to the station house , the d.a . will confirm you have no cause to revoke his bail . nick : we can get the d.a . on the phone right now . jack : or you can make it real easy on yourself and walk out alone and allow us to finish blessing this marriage . it 's your choice . harding : [ chuckles ] well , it looks like i 'm not gon na be taking travers in . summer : oh ! harding : not yet . you folks have a nice day . summer : thank you , everybody , for speaking up . sharon : we were only speaking the truth . anyone with eyes can see how much you love austin . austin : thanks . not just for putting the brakes on that detective , but for being here for summer . i know how much it means to her . jack : i love my daughter . i want her to always know i 'm there for her , no matter what . that way she 'll know where to turn when you break her heart . kelly : jack , maybe we should go . faith : is there wedding cake ? summer : [ chuckles ] i 'm afraid not . nick : come on . let 's get you some cake on the way home . summer : um , thank you for being here . and you , too , jack . i feel really lucky . you know , not every girl gets to walk down the aisle on the arms of two men who love her as much as you guys do . victor : i really do n't want to be in league with you again , mariah . last time we tried that , you nearly cost me my relationship with my son . mariah : i did n't want to work with you again , anyway . victor : all right . mariah : i got a good thing going here . why mess it up ? victor : yeah . however , if some information comes your way , you know ... mariah : that 's probably not going to happen . victor : uh - huh . mariah : so i guess if you want to unearth sharon 's dangerous secret , you 're gon na have to wait for that phyllis chick to come out of her coma . victor : yeah . you think you 're a very smart girl , do n't you ? interesting . let me ask you something . what does ian ward think about your living arrangements ? i know you 're associating with that degenerate . mariah : you do n't ian the way that i know him . victor : [ chuckling ] thank god i do n't . mariah : he is a good man . i would have left town owing sharon a fortune if he had n't convinced me to stay . victor : oh , my goodness . that warms the cockles of my heart . mariah : ian wants what 's best for me . victor : oh . mariah : he completely approves of my relationship with sharon , and he thinks that me staying here is a great idea . victor : wow . he does , does he ? cane : where did hilary and devon go ? lily : uh , well , somehow , the laundry room misplaced her clothes after she slipped into the pool . neil : is that a fact ? 'cause i know the word `` slipped `` is inaccurate . i 'm guessing that `` misplaced `` is as well . cane : and ... ? lily : and they went to go look for the clothes themselves . neil : right , see ? now , devon -- he 's the only helpful one in the family . matter of fact , i 'm happy that she was busy , because i did n't want her to see these pictures of the house and ruin my surprise . cane : um , i 'm gon na let you guys talk . i have some things i have to deal with . neil : okay . cane : all right ? i 'll talk to you later . lily : what house ? neil : do you really want to know ? lily : well , since you 're gon na be living in it with her , no , i do n't . neil : lily , your resentment towards hilary -- it casts a dark cloud over our lives . i wish it was n't this way . i miss my daughter . lily : dad , i miss you , too . and i wish it did n't have to be this way , either , but i am not gon na change my opinion of her . neil : breaks my heart that you and hilary ca n't be close . lily : how can we be when i know that she 's gon na break your heart even worse ? devon : hilary , are you saying that you 're ready to admit that you made a mistake ? hilary : no . i 'm saying that your infatuation will wear off . devon : you really think it 's that easy ? hilary : you 'll get over this , devon , especially since there was n't a `` this `` to get over . devon : hilary . hilary : i got to get out of here . devon : listen , you admit it . you admit it -- that you have feelings for me . hilary : had , devon . past tense . devon : and what about right now ? you do n't feel a damn thing for me ? hilary : i 'm married to your father . devon : that 's not an answer , though . hilary : okay , i ca n't breathe in her devon : hilary , do you have feelings for me or not ? hilary : i got to get out of here . neil : i 'm sorry . i ca n't do this with you , lily . lily : what ? you ca n't even talk to me anymore ? neil : no , i ca n't stand here and listen to you continue to bash the person i love . i got to go . lily : okay , wait . dad , stop . stop . since we both miss each other , why do n't we just try to have a nice father / daughter conversation ? and i promise i wo n't mention you - know - who if you do n't mention her name . neil : that 's not ideal . you 're asking me not to talk about a big part of my life . lily : dad , come on . neil : i 'll try . it 's a start . [ sighs ] all right , um ... oh . how are my babies , the twins , doing in day camp ? lily : they 're good . you know mattie is swimming like a fish and charlie 's doing really well in baseball . neil : see ? that 's because they take after me . that 's good news . lily : [ chuckles ] yeah , it 's good . neil : okay . there 's another family issue that i - i need to discuss with you . lily : yeah , whatever -- what is it ? neil : i 'm very concerned about devon . do you know what 's going on with him ? [ clatters ] devon : hello ? hilary : okay . devon : i 'm sorry . hilary : no . it -- it 's fine . it 's me . devon : no , i - i started it , so ... hilary : we both did . you 're right , devon . i was -- i was wrong to tell you not to go , okay ? you need to go . you need to leave before ... jack : she 's not worried . she 's in love . no , i 'm the one who 's sick with worry about what summer 's doing . kelly : and in spite of that , you gave her your blessing . jack : i walked in , and i saw her on nick 's arm , and i - i -- all of these emotions flooded through me at once . kelly : [ chuckles ] none of which , i 'm sure , was a burning desire to see her get married . jack : not a one , and yet i aided and abetted . i walked her right into the arms of the man who kidnapped her aunt and shot the chief of police . kelly : [ laughs ] yes . jack : a man who , in all likelihood , will spend the best years of summer 's life in prison , and ... and what does that look mean ? kelly : i am just so proud of you . jack : proud of the idiotic things i did today ? it 's a long list topped by my almost getting my daughter arrested . kelly : oh , yes . that was stellar . go move , sir . jack : thank you . so , tell me , miss andrews , of all your choices , which of my bonehead moves swelled you with pride ? kelly : the fact that , despite all of your worrying , you gave your daughter the thing that she needed the most today . jack : fright , panic , alarm ? kelly : your unconditional love . jack : one of the hardest things i 've ever done -- watching the two of them plan a future they probably will never live while every cell in my body wanted to let that detective take him off to the slammer . kelly : yeah , but you stood beside summer . you fought for her husband with her . and in doing so , you fought for her -- you know , for her happiness -- making you , mr. abbott , the best dad ever . jack : mm . kelly : hmm . jack : i 'm proud of you , too . kelly : me ? jack : you gave me great advice and you stood by me when i needed it the most . kelly : oh . [ chuckles ] well , you made all of the decisions . so , congratulations , jack . and not just for the wedding . jack : you 're talking about the other thing that happened today . kelly : uh , yeah . jack : it was a little more than a year ago i found out that summer was my daughter . today ... today , i became her father . faith : grandpa ! victor : hi , sweetheart . there you are . my goodness , how nice to see you . faith : you missed me being a flower girl at summer 's wedding . victor : you were a flower girl ? at what wedding ? nick : uh , faith , why do n't you go upstairs and , uh , change your clothes , okay ? faith : okay . mariah , here 's cake for you . share with grandpa , okay ? mariah : uh , yeah . sure , if he wants . sharon : victor , what are you doing here ? victor : i 'm here to talk to nicholas . what wedding was she a flower girl at ? nick : you know what ? faith is gon na be down here any minute . let 's go outside and talk . victor : all right . sharon : are you all right ? mariah : yes . everything 's cool . sharon : well , after the way victor used you , it could n't have been very pleasant to see him again . mariah : oh , please . i 'm not scared of mr. newman . but , uh , heads up -- he 's still interested in that secret that you were keeping . sharon : hmm . well , that makes two of us , and something happened today that made me feel like i 'm getting a lot closer . victor : how could jack abbott have allowed summer to marry that punk ? why did n't you stop it ? nick : i did n't have the right to , dad . i 'm not trying to control my children 's lives , just like i ca n't decide who they fall in love with . victor : son , this has nothing to do with love . you 're talking about a criminal who shot paul williams , for heaven 's sake , who just got out of the hospital . nick : yeah , i know , but it 's done . now , do you want to keep arguing about it or do you want to tell me why you 're here ? victor : i ca n't believe what the hell is going on . anyway , i 'm here because i wanted to know from you if you 'd learned anything ... from mariah about ian ward . nick : not much , but it 's obvious ian and mariah have some kind of relationship . victor : oh , yeah . she just tells me that ian ward is rather happy about her new living arrangements . nick : why would ian care ? victor : i do n't know . i guess he has a vested interest in mariah getting close to sharon . mariah : what do you remember ? sharon : well , nothing concrete . it was just a series of confusing thoughts and images . mariah : what about ? sharon : well , i had this vague feeling brought on by a tube of lipstick , of all things . mariah : that 's random . sharon : yeah . and so was the other one . at summer 's wedding , just seeing her standing there with jack and nick brought on another one . mariah : another ... what ? what kind of feeling ? sharon : i know this does n't make any sense , but i felt guilt . summer : hey , husband . austin : hi , wife . i just spoke with leslie . summer : and they ca n't re - arrest you ? austin : right . detective harding 's just blowing smoke . they ca n't revoke my bail . but how did you know that ? did you get it from a higher power ? summer : [ chuckles ] no , noah texted me , and courtney basically told him the same thing . i 'm just really relieved . austin : yeah . me , too . but summer , we both know i 'm on borrowed time . summer : that 's ... actually what i was praying about . somehow , some way that you 'll stay free . that a judge will understand the circumstances and realize that you 're more important to society when you are n't behind bars . austin : that would take a miracle . summer : yeah , and we 've come to the right place . austin : [ chuckles ] summer : i 'm actually waiting on another miracle that has n't happened yet . you know , today , the part where we exchanged vows -- that was so amazing . and it was great having jack and nick here . it 's just ... someone was missing . jack : alas , there was no wedding cake to be found , so i found these cookies in the vending mach -- [ sniffs ] oh . kelly : yeah . jack : that particular perfume was -- kelly : right . named for phyllis . i know . i -- it does n't bother me . i - i 'm sure you 've been thinking about her a little bit more than usual today . jack : she should have been here for our daughter 's big day . though , frankly , if she were here , their probably would n't have been any wedding . [ chuckles ] kelly : what , you think she would have stopped it ? jack : let 's just say phyllis went to great extremes to make sure that summer stayed away from the wrong guy in the past . kelly : well , it -- it would have made sense if she was as concerned as -- as you 've been , but summer is an adult . jack : summer 's making a big mistake . kelly : adults make mistakes . you know , that 's how we learn . you just have to hope that you do n't get so far off that you ca n't get back . devon : i wish things did n't have to be this way . hilary : there is n't any other way . hey . just , um ... came to find my clothes . cane : did you find them ? hilary : um ... cane : or did you find something else ? i know what 's going on between you and devon . neil : devon showed up at the celebration that jack had for me and hilary -- lily : and how 'bout those cubs ? neil : all right , would you just listen to me for a second ? let me tell you this . devon showed up at that celebration -- he was half drunk . he 'd been drinking during the day . lily : is there a problem with that ? neil : well , it is when you add to it that he was overly emotional . i mean , do you think that his breakup with esmerelda was harder than we think ? lily : maybe . cane said that he has been acting a little different lately . neil : what do we do about this ? lily : well , it did occur to me when i saw devon talking to abby , who is single , that maybe he just needs the right woman . and i think maybe i can help steer him in the right direction . devon : forget it , lily . lily : what would one date hurt ? devon : i do n't want you going to that much trouble for me , especially when i 'm not gon na be here to enjoy it . i told you that i 'm leaving town . lily : well , i did n't think you were being serious . devon : i 'm very serious . i think the sooner that i get out of genoa city , the better . neil : hey . i know what 's going on , son . and i think leaving town right now -- that would be a bad idea . hilary : there 's nothing going on between devon and me . okay . maybe there was something that we needed to get out of our systems , but now that we have -- ne , seriously -- cane : i 'm not asking for explanations , and i do n't want excuses . all i want is honesty . if you have romantic feelings for devon , you have to let neil go . hilary : i love neil , cane . and there 's -- there 's no issue with devon . he 's going away . cane : whether he is in the next room or a million miles away , you will not be happy with neil if your heart belongs to his son . jack : i 'm sure i could rustle us up a glass of milk to go with the cookies . kelly : no . i do n't need milk . jack : i do n't need milk , either . you know what i do need ? i have pictures of everyone in my life in this room , and i do n't have a good picture of you . kelly : oh , jack , no . jack : say `` cookie . `` kelly : [ laughs ] can i at least go touch up my makeup ? jack : nope . oh . got it . kelly : [ laughs ] eating . jack : perfect . this will remind me of you when you 're not around . kelly : oh , were you planning to forget me ? jack : never . kelly : or get rid of me ? jack : not a chance . mariah : why would you feel guilty ? sharon : you know , my psychiatrist probably would n't want me to self - analyze . mariah : right . sorry . sharon : i really think it was just as simple as me seeing phyllis ' daughter getting married and happy and there with family while phyllis ca n't be , so ... guilt . nick : why would ian want mariah to be close to sharon ? victor : he suggested that he had information that would be important to her family . i thought it had to do with dylan mcavoy 's paternity , but it may be about something else . nick : what else could it be ? victor : i have no clue . as soon as i find out , i 'll let you know . neil : you know , it sounds like you 're not satisfied with your life at the moment . devon : i 'm not at all . lily : because of the inheritance ? devon : mainly . neil : so what is it ? are you feeling like you have no direction ? devon : yeah . neil : you know , you had a very similar situation last year when tucker left town . remember that ? and you considered leaving town then , too . devon : i remember that . that 's true . neil : this is classic , you know , because packing up and leaving town -- that 's exactly what we call , in the program , pulling a geographic . lily : what is that ? neil : it 's when you physically move somewhere else to make a fresh start . all you 're doing with that is running from your problems . you 're running away from -- from people and obligations . it does n't work . you know , you ca n't just run away and avoid the problem . devon : sometimes facing the problem and staying does n't fix it , either . lily : look , devon , dad is right . you know , even if you move away , you 're still not gon na be happy . neil : yeah . lily : and you 're gon na leave a lot of people here unhappy . neil : yeah , you should listen to her , because whatever you 're going through , whatever you 're facing right now , you can and you will get through it . devon : i really do n't think it 's that easy . neil : do you or do you not have unfinished business here ? devon : i absolutely have unfinished business here . neil : good . then be a man , face it , and finish your business .

[ chuckles ] summer : i think that my mom would be really glad that her daughter found someone special to love . and if that is n't enough for her to come back to us , then i do n't know what is . jack : i am loving getting to know you . kelly : that goes both ways . and there 's still so much for us to ... learn about each other . jack : yeah . and i want to take the time to do that .

[ knock at door ] mariah : you do n't look surprised to see me . victor : i 'm not . mariah : are you having me watched ? victor : nicholas told me that he 'd given you the key to his house . this house is on my property , so i 'm obviously aware that you 're here . mariah : what do you want ? victor : what do i want ? to talk to my son . mariah : nobody else is here . victor : well , i 'll wait him until he comes back . mariah : great . knock yourself out . victor : hold it just one minute , will you ? while i 'm waiting , you and i should discuss a few things . neil : you want to answer why you keep dancing around like this ? cane : i did n't know that 's what i was doing . neil : yeah , that 's exactly what you 're doing when it comes to discussions about my wife . you keep vacillating . one minute , you 're supporting my choices , the next you 're questioning them . cane : listen , that is not my intention . neil : i 'm your father - in - law . we 're family . if you 've got something to say , just come out and say it . cane : are you sure this is what hilary really wants ? neil : i just told you . hilary 's dream is to have a house like this . cane : i 'm not talking about the house . hilary : please . do n't go . devon : why not ? hilary : genoa city 's your home . you belong here . devon : okay . are these your clothes or not ? hilary : no . tell me why you 're really going . devon : 'cause there 's got to be more to life than this . that 's why . hilary : how can you say that when you have so much ? devon : why does it always come back to the money ? hilary : that 's not what i 'm talking about . devon : i can afford to go and see the world , so why not do that ? hilary : globetrotting and slacking off -- that 's your goal in life ? devon : well , why not ? i mean , really . nothing and no one is tying me down here . hilary : it 's so sudden . you 're taking off so soon . you 're making this huge decision . why ? devon : i just have to go . hilary : be honest . okay , if it has nothing to do with me , then just tell me -- devon : all right , fine . it has everything to do with you . hilary : but you just said that -- devon : i know what i said . you want me to be honest . this is me being honest . hilary : [ sighs ] devon : why do n't you be honest with me now too and tell me why you really want me to stay ? neil : what exactly is it that you think that my wife wants that i 'm not giving to her ? cane : look , you move too fast , you get too settled -- neil : if hilary and i did n't want to settle down , we 'd be living together instead of being married . cane : do you think that hilary 's ready for this kind of responsibility ? neil : [ scoffs ] what are you saying ? cane : well , you might be , but is she ? i mean , she has a career she wants to pursue . neil : do you really think that i 'm gon na lock her away in this house and throw away the key ? cane : no , i 'm not saying that . i just do n't understand why you have this need to move so fast . neil : you think that i 'm overcompensating because hilary 's younger than i am . cane : no , i 'm not saying that . i 'm not saying that . neil : okay , because this house -- it is n't about me . it 's about hilary 's longing for stability , for a place that 's not mine or hers but ours . cane : but then why did n't you feel the need to include her in selecting the house ? neil : because it 's my gift to her . not just a house -- a home . a home that she 's never had before . and as much as this house is gon na make her happy , man , it 's gon na make me happier to be able to give it to her . cane : so , you 're assuming that this is what she wants without discussing it with her ? neil : i appreciate the advice , but i really did n't ask you for it . cane : all right , listen , i do n't mean to intrude . i really do n't , okay ? neil : and for the record , i know exactly what i 'm doing here . i have chosen hilary to be my wife . there is everything right with planning for our future together . lily : wow . i swear there 's no escaping her . when i 'm not seeing hilary , i 'm hearing about her . neil : okay , have you seen hilary in the club anywhere ? lily : no , i have n't seen her , not since she left with devon . hilary : i want you to stay because a lot of people here -- they depend on you . devon : people ? plural ? hilary : yes . devon : like who ? hilary : like ... devon : you must be talking about the club . but do n't worry , 'cause i 'm very confident that the club will thrive in my absence , and i think that lily and cane will do just fine without me being here . hilary : i 'm not talking about the club . devon : okay . who are you talking about , then ? hilary : your family . you know , your father , for one . your sister , your nieces , your nephews , your baby brother moses . devon : that 's a long list . and someone 's missing . hilary : you know , when i did all that research on neil 's family , i read about you , about how you got into all of this trouble when you were a teenager . devon : and then neil and dru took me in . my dad is good at that -- making a home and making you feel wanted . hilary : you have a life now full of a long list of people ... who love you . devon : i 'm not leaving forever . hilary : really ? it 's just gon na be like a few weeks ? devon : it 's gon na be for however long it takes to get over you . hilary : do n't say that . devon : because right now , it is killing me to know that you chose the wrong guy . hilary : do n't . devon : and it 's killing me that i feel the way i do about my father 's wife . hilary : please , devon . devon : and it 's killing me to stand in this room with you right now knowing that you have feelings for me , too . hilary : [ sighs ] devon : why am i gon na stay here ... and torture myself when nothing 's gon na change ? hilary : maybe ... maybe it will . victor : i 'd like you to answer some questions . mariah : what do you want to know ? victor : how did you come to share a house with my son and with sharon when not too long ago you tried to gaslight her ? mariah : sharon took an interest in me . victor : oh , yeah ? then she invited you to be a house guest ? mariah : the place that i was staying -- let 's just say my circumstances changed . victor : uh - huh . and nicholas approved of this ? mariah : i was surprised , but nick did n't completely hate the idea of me moving in here . victor : really ? mariah : it 's funny how things work sometimes . i got a job and a sweet setup . sharon got nick . and you ... oh , that 's right . you never did get that secret that you were looking for -- the one that sharon was hiding from nick , the one that was gon na hurt him ? victor : yes , and i tried to get you to unearth it . paid you a lot of money to do that , but you did n't . mariah : things work out that way sometimes . hey , the last time that i ran in to you ... victor : mm - hmm ? mariah : ... you said something about paying me if i was still useful to you . victor : did i do that ? mariah : and now , here i am . i 'm getting closer to sharon . i 'm living under her roof . i might be in a position to finish the job you initially hired me for . harding : hands behind your back , travers . austin : summer , i 'll be fine . summer : no . jack : this -- this is n't necessary , detective . harding : you do n't want to interfere , mr. abbott . jack : this is a mistake that i set in motion . i was an overactive parent trying to keep his daughter a child , and i overcompensated . look , this is not fraud . there is no false pretense here . these two are getting married because they love each other . summer : yes , we do . austin : it 's the truth . jack : the only reason for this marriage is to commit themselves to each other before his trial and eventual incarceration . harding : come on . you know how many times i 've seen this before ? jack : seen what , exactly ? harding : this . a father who ticked off his daughter something fierce and now will say anything he has to get back on her good side . nick : jack is telling the truth . summer and austin just swore their love to each other . i was a witness . sharon : so was i . kelly : i was , too . faith : me , too . jack : obviously we 're getting nowhere with the detective . go ahead . do what you have to do . take him in . sharon : nick , you ca n't let him do this . you have to stop him . summer : jack , what are you saying ? jack : i 'm just saying it 's up to the detective . if he wants to end up with egg on his face , that 's his business . harding : what for ? righteous arrest ? jack : it is not a righteous arrest . there is no fraud here . when you get to the station house , the d.a . will confirm you have no cause to revoke his bail . nick : we can get the d.a . on the phone right now . jack : or you can make it real easy on yourself and walk out alone and allow us to finish blessing this marriage . it 's your choice . harding : [ chuckles ] well , it looks like i 'm not gon na be taking travers in . summer : oh ! harding : not yet . you folks have a nice day . summer : thank you , everybody , for speaking up . sharon : we were only speaking the truth . anyone with eyes can see how much you love austin . austin : thanks . not just for putting the brakes on that detective , but for being here for summer . i know how much it means to her . jack : i love my daughter . i want her to always know i 'm there for her , no matter what . that way she 'll know where to turn when you break her heart . kelly : jack , maybe we should go . faith : is there wedding cake ? summer : [ chuckles ] i 'm afraid not . nick : come on . let 's get you some cake on the way home . summer : um , thank you for being here . and you , too , jack . i feel really lucky . you know , not every girl gets to walk down the aisle on the arms of two men who love her as much as you guys do . victor : i really do n't want to be in league with you again , mariah . last time we tried that , you nearly cost me my relationship with my son . mariah : i did n't want to work with you again , anyway . victor : all right . mariah : i got a good thing going here . why mess it up ? victor : yeah . however , if some information comes your way , you know ... mariah : that 's probably not going to happen . victor : uh - huh . mariah : so i guess if you want to unearth sharon 's dangerous secret , you 're gon na have to wait for that phyllis chick to come out of her coma . victor : yeah . you think you 're a very smart girl , do n't you ? interesting . let me ask you something . what does ian ward think about your living arrangements ? i know you 're associating with that degenerate . mariah : you do n't ian the way that i know him . victor : [ chuckling ] thank god i do n't . mariah : he is a good man . i would have left town owing sharon a fortune if he had n't convinced me to stay . victor : oh , my goodness . that warms the cockles of my heart . mariah : ian wants what 's best for me . victor : oh . mariah : he completely approves of my relationship with sharon , and he thinks that me staying here is a great idea . victor : wow . he does , does he ? cane : where did hilary and devon go ? lily : uh , well , somehow , the laundry room misplaced her clothes after she slipped into the pool . neil : is that a fact ? 'cause i know the word `` slipped `` is inaccurate . i 'm guessing that `` misplaced `` is as well . cane : and ... ? lily : and they went to go look for the clothes themselves . neil : right , see ? now , devon -- he 's the only helpful one in the family . matter of fact , i 'm happy that she was busy , because i did n't want her to see these pictures of the house and ruin my surprise . cane : um , i 'm gon na let you guys talk . i have some things i have to deal with . neil : okay . cane : all right ? i 'll talk to you later . lily : what house ? neil : do you really want to know ? lily : well , since you 're gon na be living in it with her , no , i do n't . neil : lily , your resentment towards hilary -- it casts a dark cloud over our lives . i wish it was n't this way . i miss my daughter . lily : dad , i miss you , too . and i wish it did n't have to be this way , either , but i am not gon na change my opinion of her . neil : breaks my heart that you and hilary ca n't be close . lily : how can we be when i know that she 's gon na break your heart even worse ? devon : hilary , are you saying that you 're ready to admit that you made a mistake ? hilary : no . i 'm saying that your infatuation will wear off . devon : you really think it 's that easy ? hilary : you 'll get over this , devon , especially since there was n't a `` this `` to get over . devon : hilary . hilary : i got to get out of here . devon : listen , you admit it . you admit it -- that you have feelings for me . hilary : had , devon . past tense . devon : and what about right now ? you do n't feel a damn thing for me ? hilary : i 'm married to your father . devon : that 's not an answer , though . hilary : okay , i ca n't breathe in her devon : hilary , do you have feelings for me or not ? hilary : i got to get out of here . neil : i 'm sorry . i ca n't do this with you , lily . lily : what ? you ca n't even talk to me anymore ? neil : no , i ca n't stand here and listen to you continue to bash the person i love . i got to go . lily : okay , wait . dad , stop . stop . since we both miss each other , why do n't we just try to have a nice father / daughter conversation ? and i promise i wo n't mention you - know - who if you do n't mention her name . neil : that 's not ideal . you 're asking me not to talk about a big part of my life . lily : dad , come on . neil : i 'll try . it 's a start . [ sighs ] all right , um ... oh . how are my babies , the twins , doing in day camp ? lily : they 're good . you know mattie is swimming like a fish and charlie 's doing really well in baseball . neil : see ? that 's because they take after me . that 's good news . lily : [ chuckles ] yeah , it 's good . neil : okay . there 's another family issue that i - i need to discuss with you . lily : yeah , whatever -- what is it ? neil : i 'm very concerned about devon . do you know what 's going on with him ? [ clatters ] devon : hello ? hilary : okay . devon : i 'm sorry . hilary : no . it -- it 's fine . it 's me . devon : no , i - i started it , so ... hilary : we both did . you 're right , devon . i was -- i was wrong to tell you not to go , okay ? you need to go . you need to leave before ... jack : she 's not worried . she 's in love . no , i 'm the one who 's sick with worry about what summer 's doing . kelly : and in spite of that , you gave her your blessing . jack : i walked in , and i saw her on nick 's arm , and i - i -- all of these emotions flooded through me at once . kelly : [ chuckles ] none of which , i 'm sure , was a burning desire to see her get married . jack : not a one , and yet i aided and abetted . i walked her right into the arms of the man who kidnapped her aunt and shot the chief of police . kelly : [ laughs ] yes . jack : a man who , in all likelihood , will spend the best years of summer 's life in prison , and ... and what does that look mean ? kelly : i am just so proud of you . jack : proud of the idiotic things i did today ? it 's a long list topped by my almost getting my daughter arrested . kelly : oh , yes . that was stellar . go move , sir . jack : thank you . so , tell me , miss andrews , of all your choices , which of my bonehead moves swelled you with pride ? kelly : the fact that , despite all of your worrying , you gave your daughter the thing that she needed the most today . jack : fright , panic , alarm ? kelly : your unconditional love . jack : one of the hardest things i 've ever done -- watching the two of them plan a future they probably will never live while every cell in my body wanted to let that detective take him off to the slammer . kelly : yeah , but you stood beside summer . you fought for her husband with her . and in doing so , you fought for her -- you know , for her happiness -- making you , mr. abbott , the best dad ever . jack : mm . kelly : hmm . jack : i 'm proud of you , too . kelly : me ? jack : you gave me great advice and you stood by me when i needed it the most . kelly : oh . [ chuckles ] well , you made all of the decisions . so , congratulations , jack . and not just for the wedding . jack : you 're talking about the other thing that happened today . kelly : uh , yeah . jack : it was a little more than a year ago i found out that summer was my daughter . today ... today , i became her father . faith : grandpa ! victor : hi , sweetheart . there you are . my goodness , how nice to see you . faith : you missed me being a flower girl at summer 's wedding . victor : you were a flower girl ? at what wedding ? nick : uh , faith , why do n't you go upstairs and , uh , change your clothes , okay ? faith : okay . mariah , here 's cake for you . share with grandpa , okay ? mariah : uh , yeah . sure , if he wants . sharon : victor , what are you doing here ? victor : i 'm here to talk to nicholas . what wedding was she a flower girl at ? nick : you know what ? faith is gon na be down here any minute . let 's go outside and talk . victor : all right . sharon : are you all right ? mariah : yes . everything 's cool . sharon : well , after the way victor used you , it could n't have been very pleasant to see him again . mariah : oh , please . i 'm not scared of mr. newman . but , uh , heads up -- he 's still interested in that secret that you were keeping . sharon : hmm . well , that makes two of us , and something happened today that made me feel like i 'm getting a lot closer . victor : how could jack abbott have allowed summer to marry that punk ? why did n't you stop it ? nick : i did n't have the right to , dad . i 'm not trying to control my children 's lives , just like i ca n't decide who they fall in love with . victor : son , this has nothing to do with love . you 're talking about a criminal who shot paul williams , for heaven 's sake , who just got out of the hospital . nick : yeah , i know , but it 's done . now , do you want to keep arguing about it or do you want to tell me why you 're here ? victor : i ca n't believe what the hell is going on . anyway , i 'm here because i wanted to know from you if you 'd learned anything ... from mariah about ian ward . nick : not much , but it 's obvious ian and mariah have some kind of relationship . victor : oh , yeah . she just tells me that ian ward is rather happy about her new living arrangements . nick : why would ian care ? victor : i do n't know . i guess he has a vested interest in mariah getting close to sharon . mariah : what do you remember ? sharon : well , nothing concrete . it was just a series of confusing thoughts and images . mariah : what about ? sharon : well , i had this vague feeling brought on by a tube of lipstick , of all things . mariah : that 's random . sharon : yeah . and so was the other one . at summer 's wedding , just seeing her standing there with jack and nick brought on another one . mariah : another ... what ? what kind of feeling ? sharon : i know this does n't make any sense , but i felt guilt . summer : hey , husband . austin : hi , wife . i just spoke with leslie . summer : and they ca n't re - arrest you ? austin : right . detective harding 's just blowing smoke . they ca n't revoke my bail . but how did you know that ? did you get it from a higher power ? summer : [ chuckles ] no , noah texted me , and courtney basically told him the same thing . i 'm just really relieved . austin : yeah . me , too . but summer , we both know i 'm on borrowed time . summer : that 's ... actually what i was praying about . somehow , some way that you 'll stay free . that a judge will understand the circumstances and realize that you 're more important to society when you are n't behind bars . austin : that would take a miracle . summer : yeah , and we 've come to the right place . austin : [ chuckles ] summer : i 'm actually waiting on another miracle that has n't happened yet . you know , today , the part where we exchanged vows -- that was so amazing . and it was great having jack and nick here . it 's just ... someone was missing . jack : alas , there was no wedding cake to be found , so i found these cookies in the vending mach -- [ sniffs ] oh . kelly : yeah . jack : that particular perfume was -- kelly : right . named for phyllis . i know . i -- it does n't bother me . i - i 'm sure you 've been thinking about her a little bit more than usual today . jack : she should have been here for our daughter 's big day . though , frankly , if she were here , their probably would n't have been any wedding . [ chuckles ] kelly : what , you think she would have stopped it ? jack : let 's just say phyllis went to great extremes to make sure that summer stayed away from the wrong guy in the past . kelly : well , it -- it would have made sense if she was as concerned as -- as you 've been , but summer is an adult . jack : summer 's making a big mistake . kelly : adults make mistakes . you know , that 's how we learn . you just have to hope that you do n't get so far off that you ca n't get back . devon : i wish things did n't have to be this way . hilary : there is n't any other way . hey . just , um ... came to find my clothes . cane : did you find them ? hilary : um ... cane : or did you find something else ? i know what 's going on between you and devon . neil : devon showed up at the celebration that jack had for me and hilary -- lily : and how 'bout those cubs ? neil : all right , would you just listen to me for a second ? let me tell you this . devon showed up at that celebration -- he was half drunk . he 'd been drinking during the day . lily : is there a problem with that ? neil : well , it is when you add to it that he was overly emotional . i mean , do you think that his breakup with esmerelda was harder than we think ? lily : maybe . cane said that he has been acting a little different lately . neil : what do we do about this ? lily : well , it did occur to me when i saw devon talking to abby , who is single , that maybe he just needs the right woman . and i think maybe i can help steer him in the right direction . devon : forget it , lily . lily : what would one date hurt ? devon : i do n't want you going to that much trouble for me , especially when i 'm not gon na be here to enjoy it . i told you that i 'm leaving town . lily : well , i did n't think you were being serious . devon : i 'm very serious . i think the sooner that i get out of genoa city , the better . neil : hey . i know what 's going on , son . and i think leaving town right now -- that would be a bad idea . hilary : there 's nothing going on between devon and me . okay . maybe there was something that we needed to get out of our systems , but now that we have -- ne , seriously -- cane : i 'm not asking for explanations , and i do n't want excuses . all i want is honesty . if you have romantic feelings for devon , you have to let neil go . hilary : i love neil , cane . and there 's -- there 's no issue with devon . he 's going away . cane : whether he is in the next room or a million miles away , you will not be happy with neil if your heart belongs to his son . jack : i 'm sure i could rustle us up a glass of milk to go with the cookies . kelly : no . i do n't need milk . jack : i do n't need milk , either . you know what i do need ? i have pictures of everyone in my life in this room , and i do n't have a good picture of you . kelly : oh , jack , no . jack : say `` cookie . `` kelly : [ laughs ] can i at least go touch up my makeup ?

jack : you got some nerve showing up here claiming to give a damn about phyllis . victor : i 'm merely here to say hello . jack : you 're not welcome here , especially not now . phyllis : it 's okay , jack . i 'd like to see victor . nick : that 's what i like -- a highly paid executive doing her own filing . victoria : losing her files is more like it . i ca n't seem to keep track of anything today . nick : like the way we all lost track of dad after he took off on his last trip ? victoria : well , do n't look at me . i do n't have his itinerary . nick : are you kidding me ? dad left you in charge , and he did n't tell you where he was going ? victoria : victor newman , international man of mystery . nick : well , i left him a message , too , thinking he 'd be back by now , but from what i 'm hearing , he has n't shown up here ? victoria : not that i know of . nick : and no idea when he 's coming back ? victoria : connie said he 'll be home today , but until i see it with my own eyes , it 's just a rumor . what do you want from him ? nick : actually -- victoria : ah , never mind . i think i can guess . sharon : what you reading ? noah : it 's , uh , fenmore 's ad . [ chuckles ] big sale coming up . sharon : why is that funny ? noah : [ chuckles ] they 're having a psychic come and do palm readings and something like that . madame isadora . they left her number . look , i get that it 's a publicity stunt , but what does it have to do with selling dresses ? `` i see in my crystal ball that you 're gon na max out your fenmore charge card . `` sharon : i made you a sandwich . but there 's leftover meatloaf if you want . noah : ooh . i did n't come here to eat . i came here to see how you 're doing . sharon : okay , you want me to just throw away the sandwich ? noah : uh , no . i 'll take it . sharon : [ chuckles ] noah : thank you . so , how are you doing ? sharon : i 'm fine . noah : really ? sharon : yeah , really . why would you ask ? noah : because when phyllis crashed the wedding and everybody was staring at her , i was looking right at you , and you were so pale , i thought you were gon na pass out . so , what was going on in your mind ? lauren : waiting for someone ? michael : you have never looked more beautiful thank you do right now . lauren : [ chuckles ] well , it 's amazing what a little timeout in the middle of a very busy day can do for a girl . michael : come here , you . lauren : maybe -- [ chuckles ] it 's too bad we have that meeting . michael : we 'd be right back upstairs . lauren : all right . then how about afterward ? michael : make it a quick meeting . lauren : and a very ... very slow afternoon . maureen : nikki ! i did n't know you were staying here . nikki : oh . actually , i 'm not . um , i 'm headed to a meeting for a charity event . it 's gon na be in the suite . maureen : oh . i thought we were friends . you do n't have to try to pull the wool over my eyes , you know . i - i can probably kind of guess what you 're doing here . paul : hey , there . thought i 'd check in . dylan : oh , thanks . paul : how 's it going ? dylan : well , when i agreed to this phony murder charge , i had no idea how hard it would be spending all these nights in this cell . paul : ian 's taken the bait . it 's all gon na be worth it . dylan : yeah , says the guy who can walk out of here and go home to his wife ! paul : look , i know it 's a difficult situation -- dylan : no , i 'm going nuts in here , paul ! you got to get me out . paul : listen , you were booked and denied bail . if someone from the media were to see you , dylan -- dylan : no , no , no . they wo n't . i 'll take every -- paul : the answer is no . our plan would be blown out of the water , ian would disappear forever , and where would that leave you ? dylan : stuck in here .

[ glasses clink ] nick : how can you even say that to me ? you know how much i want to marry sharon . vick , you came to my wedding . i thought you were behind us . victoria : i was trying to be supportive , nick . i know how much you love the woman , all right ? but look at you . you 're a mess . sharon has made you a mess , and this is not the first time . look at everything she 's done to our family . nick : no , stop . we 're not going there . victoria : and even if dad uncovers the secret and it turns out to be nothing , sharon is still going to screw up . do you really want to sign up for that ? i really do n't want to see you hurt again . how many times have you two tried ? there is a reason why you and sharon do n't work . you know that , right ? nick : well , i want to marry sharon , and that 's the end of it . i mean , sharon has been through so much , and i 'm proud of the way she 's handled it . victoria : i understand wanting to move forward with someone that you love , but to ignore their history , i mean , i do n't mean to offend you , but it 's just not wise , nick . nick : you know what ? this is n't even about me and sharon anymore . this is about billy and stitch and the decision you have to make . sharon : having phyllis suddenly show up like that was a shock . it was a shock for everyone , not just me . noah : sure . but you were the only one that panicked and rushed out of the church . where 'd you go ? sharon : to the cemetery to talk to cassie . i was scared . noah : of what ? phyllis ? why ? sharon : eat your sandwich . noah : no , mom , wait . do n't . do n't , okay ? i can tell when something 's wrong . sharon : i do n't want to talk about it . noah : why would you be afraid of phyllis ? i mean , i understand you guys have never gotten along , but ... sharon : there have been times when i was at cassie 's grave and i had flashes of phyllis being there with me . noah : before she came back for real ? what do you think that means ? sharon : i do n't know . i 've been wracking my brain to try to figure it out . i just come up with nothing . noah : mom , it probably does n't mean anything . sharon : it means everything . and until i figure out what , i can not marry your father . victor : it is true , phyllis . you and i are n't close . but i 'm very fond of summer . and she missed her mother terribly , and i could n't stand by and watch her suffer . jack : oh , please . i hope you 're not buying this . victor : but you 're all right now . you 're back . jack : and what ? we 're supposed to thank you as the hero here for getting in the middle of something that was none of your business ? ! victor : summer is my business ! i will always think of her as my granddaughter ! jack : i do n't care what you think . she is my daughter ! she is my flesh and blood ! phyllis : stop ! jack : you okay ? phyllis : no . i 'm not . paul : nikki ? nikki : [ gasps ] paul : i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to startle you . the door was open . nikki : i 'm so sorry , paul . [ chuckles ] i jump at my own shadow these days . paul : well , we 're all on hyper alert , but , uh , you know what ? in this case , it 's a good thing . but you could help us if you would actually make sure your door is closed . nikki : yeah . i - i know . i definitely will . i 'm sorry . i will . paul : i made a promise to make sure that nothing would happen to you , and , uh , so far , i 've been pretty lucky . i think i 'm a couple of steps ahead of ian this time . nikki : how do you mean ? paul : well , for one thing , i 'm pretty sure the burner phone he put in your glove box was bugged . nikki : he heard our conversation ? he knows that i 'm here ? paul : well , that 's the idea . nikki : oh , my god . paul : letting him in on the secret that you 're working with the police to have him apprehended . now that he 's realized that you 're not going to be meeting him at the place you arranged , he 'll come here instead where you 're hiding , thinking he 's gon na catch you off guard , and that 's when we 're gon na nab him . nikki : well , he has eluded you before . paul : he has , but this time , we are ready for him . this place is crawling with undercover cops . so he 's not gon na slip through our fingers . nikki : well , i am so glad that you have thought this through so well . paul : well , i 'm just glad i can be here to reassure you . nikki : hey . your friendship , your loyalty , that 's what i 'm clinging to these days . paul : [ chuckles ] well , cling away , 'cause that 's what i 'm here for . nikki : [ chuckles ] well , really since katherine sent me out on this journey to find my son , you have been right there with me the whole time by my side . paul : well , here i am again . and we 're working together again to see this thing through . nikki : we make a pretty good team , huh ? paul : yeah , we sure do . [ chuckles ] nikki : i 'm grateful for it . thank you . dylan : come on ! will you just get harding ? ! i need to talk to him ! what is the problem ? ! will you call him for me ? ! harding ! harding : will you please shut the hell up ? and notice i said please . dylan : okay , wait , i need to know what 's happening . is nikki safe ? is she in the suite ? is there any sign of ward ? harding : calm down . everything 's fine . everything 's under control . dylan : well , you just love this , do n't you ? you love keeping me in the dark , watching me go crazy , your petty way of repaying me for what happened to paul . harding : you are a suspect in a murder investigation . i do n't owe you a thing . dylan : you said you could have come up with a better plan . which means you have doubts about this one . why do n't you tell me what they are ? harding : why should i ? dylan : because if something goes wrong and you could have prevented it , that 's on your head . stitch : okay , max . you be good now . you listen to your mom , and i 'll talk to you again real soon . bye , buddy . i love you , son . maureen : was that max ? he was so big , i could hardly even recognize him . stitch : yeah , i know the feeling . maureen : it would have been nice to say hi . stitch : i 'm lucky jenna lets me talk to him . she 's very strict about our video calls . maureen : he 's your son . stitch : yeah , he is my son , and he 's living on the other side of the world . now do you understand everything i 've lost ? was it all worth it ? maureen : you should n't have had to pay such a heavy price . you -- you ca n't dwell on the past . you have to stay focused on your future . stitch : my future , huh ? maureen : yes . are you gon na tell victoria the truth so you can get back together ? stitch : i told you . you have nothing to worry about as far as i 'm concerned . maureen : okay . i 'm glad to hear that . it 's -- it 's for the best , honey . i know i can trust you . stitch : if only victoria did . victoria : look , billy 's moved on , and i have no interest , and i do n't want him or ben in my life right now . nick : you seem upset . victoria : [ sighs ] look , we were talking about you , not me . nick : well , i already told you i will support whatever decision you make , but seeing how uncomfortable you are talking about either one of them , i got to think something 's changed . victoria : no . nick : so , before you start trying to cover it up or lie to me , just know i ai n't leaving here until you tell me what it is . victoria : all right . maybe something happened , but it 's mainly because of abby . nick : what did abby do ? victoria : she was going on and on the other day about how billy and i should get back together , and then ben came by and i sort of rebelled . nick : how ? victoria : i kissed hi i know . i know it was a mistake , and i know i should n't be sending him mixed signals . i know that . nick : why else was it a mistake ? victoria : nick ... nick : tell me . victoria : i do n't know . i mean , i just got all churned up inside , and i thought that i was over him , and ... nick : but you 're not . you still have feelings for him . victoria : i do n't know . i do n't want to have feelings for ben . i do n't want to have feeling for anybody . i just want to give all of my love to this baby . nick : well , once my niece or nephew gets re , everything 's gon na be a lot more clear . victoria : i 'm sure you 're right . harding : if you think you can play me , do n't even try . you 're out of your league . dylan : will you quit puffing your chest out for a minute and listen to me ? my mother put herself in danger to catch that sociopath . if he finds a way to slip into that club -- harding : he wo n't . we have all the entrances and exits covered . dylan : yeah , by undercover cops who look like cops ! harding : do n't be an idiot . the chief and i checked them all out personally . just simmer down . dylan : what about the trap door in the basement ? harding : what trap door ? maureen : it 's hard not to feel sorry for yourself . stitch : [ laughs ] oh , okay . that -- that 's what you think i 'm doing ? maureen : terrible things happened to you , to all of us . what happened to your father i do n't regret at all , and you should n't , either . you were extremely brave . stitch : [ scoffs ] i - i know i did the right thing . it 's just seeing max , talking with him , when i ca n't hug him or play catch with him or , you know , it 's just ... maureen : i know . i know . i know how much that hurts you , honey . but you 've never let what happened keep you from moving forward before . i want you to be happy . stitch : that makes two of us . maureen : then go fight for what you want . you know , it 's -- it 's probably too late for me to find happiness , but it 's not too late for you . if you want victoria , you go after her . and do n't let anyone or anything get in your way . noah : of course you can marry dad . why would you let phyllis get in the way of that ? sharon : because she knows , noah . noah : knows what ? sharon : the secret . whatever unforgivable thing i did that could hurt nick and break us up forever , phyllis knew what it was before the accident . she was the only one who knows , and now she 's back . noah : so that 's why you 're freaking out , because you 're afraid that she remembers . sharon : why else would she go to great lengths to disrupt my wedding ? noah : because it 's phyllis ! she likes to make everything about herself . sharon : she hates me . i could see it in her eyes when she walked through those doors . she was staring right at me . my heart almost stopped . if she had n't fainted , i 'm sure she would have blurted out to everyone what i did because she knows that it would devastate nick ! noah : [ sighs ] okay . the visions of phyllis at cassie 's grave . sharon : yeah , those seem very real . i ca n't explain it , but it 's like it really happened . noah : have you talked to your therapist about it ? sharon : what would be the point of that ? noah : mom . sharon : i want to marry your father . i want us to be a family again , noah , but i ca n't , not until i figure out what 's going on in my head and how to stop phyllis from controlling my life ! phyllis : i am not gon na let the two of you argue over my daughter . summer and i are reunited . that is all that matters . jack : i 'm sorry i upset you , okay ? victor : i just came here to remind you how much i love my granddaughter . phyllis : i know . but what i do n't know is everything else that happened while i was gone . there is so much i need to catch up on . victor : oh , yes , you do . phyllis : must have been awful for jack , being alone all that time . and i am so sorry for making him suffer . victor : he suffered terribly while you were gone . jack : i am enormously relieved and happy that you are back . it has been a tumultuous year . victor knows that . as a matter of fact , why do n't you fill her in on all that 's happened with your family ? nicholas and sharon have had a particularly difficult time , have n't they ? victor : you see , jack , i did n't come here to tell phyllis about all that she has missed . i 'll leave that to you . phyllis : fine . fine . if you 're not gon na help me fill in the blanks , then why did you stop by in the first place ? what is it you needed to see me about ? paul : well , uh , i do n't suppose victor 's too happy to hear that we 're working together again . especially now that you have , uh , seemingly set yourself up as a target for ian . nikki : we , uh , have n't exactly connected . paul : what do you mean ? nikki : well , he 's out of town on business . paul : what ? still ? nikki : yeah . since he wo n't tell me where he is or when he 's coming back , i 've decided to just not return his phone calls . paul : aha . because you do n't want him to know what we 're up to , just like you did n't want him to know what we were up to when we were looking for our son ? nikki : because he would make me not do it . and i want to do this , paul . i have to do it . paul : i know you do . nikki : i mean , i started this thing , so i need to end it . and you 've been with me all along this whole time , and you make me feel strong . you make me feel capable . you do n't keep me in a gilded cage like victor does . so , by the time this is over , we will have gone full circle . and that is as it should be . dylan : when devon bought the athletic club , cane asked me to do a walkthrough with him . they knew i was a builder , and they wanted my input . i found this old trap door in the basement that had n't been used in decades . it dropped down into a tunnel . a lot of the old hotels from the ' 20s have them . harding : bootlegging tunnels . dylan : right . so , it led to a stairwell that connected the club to the building next door . now , i told them to seal it off for security reasons . i do n't know if they followed through with my recommendation . if they did n't and ward knows about it -- harding : he could sneak in to the club . i got to warn the chief . dylan : no , no , no , wait , wait ! no . it 's too hidden . you 'll never find it . harding : well , tell me where it is . dylan : well , i can get you in the proximity , but it 's not that easy , because if you miss it by a few feet , you will never see it . it 's not marked . i know it by sight . you got to get me out of here so i can show you !

[ sighs ] dylan : i feel like i can be a lot more useful to you and nikki on the outside . harding : oh , yeah , like when you went rogue and got the chief shot . dylan : and they say i never let anything go . harding : i can say a lot worse than that about you . dylan : yeah , like what ? harding : like you belong in there . paul : knock it off , harding . we 've got a good plan , and it never would have gotten off the ground if dylan had n't agreed to be a part of it . harding : and if you would have trusted me in the beginning , we could have come up with something a lot less risky . dylan : well , you got a better plan ? let 's hear it . paul : we 're not changing the plan . i got to go . i 'm running late . harding : late for what ? where you going ? paul : i 'm gon na check on nikki at the club . hang tough . i mean it . before you know it , you 'll be out of here , and ian will be taking your place in there . nikki : you know , i ca n't talk right now . i really do have a meeting . maureen : right . i understand . nikki : what is it that you think you understand ? maureen : you need a little alone time . nikki : alone time ? maureen : you 're a newman . everyone wants a piece of you . you 're in the public eye . under that kind of pressure , i think anyone would want an escape once in awhile . and especially , honey , since you 're looking a little ragged . nikki : oh , what a sweet thing to say . maureen : oh , no ! i - i did n't mean it . just -- nikki : you know , i really ca n't talk now . i have a meeting , so ... maureen : right , right . i know . i 'm out of your hair . and i really do hope for the best for you . honest . i do , nikki .

[ chuckles ] boy , you guys are a bunch of regular comedians , are n't you ? do me a favor , pal . will you e - mail that to me ? thanks , champ . i 'm really glad to see you made such good friends . someday i 'm gon na introduce you to my friends , too . victoria : you want to talk to dad about sharon , do n't you ? nick : it 's pretty obvious why he blew off the wedding . dad 's working overtime to figure out what sharon 's secret is so he can do whatever it takes to keep us from getting married . victoria : and you want to know what he 's uncovered . nick : it 's the not knowing that is killing sharon , and i 'm afraid she 's gon na have another manic episode . and then all the hard work she has done to get healthy will have been for nothing . victoria : well , ca n't you reassure her somehow ? nick : i 've done everything i can . it 's like she 's obsessed . i do n't know how many more times i can tell her i do n't care what the secret is . whatever it is , we can work through it . victoria : and that has n't helped ? nick : nothing i say or do will help . i ca n't get her to calm down . i ca n't get her to focus on the wedding . i just wish dad would tell me what it is he 's looking for so i can prepare sharon and i can show her that nothing is gon na make me stop from wanting her to be my wife again . victoria : do n't . do n't marry sharon . phyllis : jack and i just learned the most interesting thing . it seems that i had a visitor at the clinic , someone who spent a lot of time there even though he was n't family . tall , commanding , with a mustache . victor : you think that was me ? jack : i have a witness that claims this man got very chummy with phyllis ' doctor . phyllis : was there a reason you decided you had a vested interest in me , victor ? jack : if you lie , i 'd be more than happy to look at security tapes or talk to employees there at the clinic . victor : no intention to lie . i was at the clinic . i am the one who brought in dr . cutler . jack : who the hell is dr . cutler ? dr. burnett is phyllis ' doctor . victor : dr. burnett and his staff were not up to the task . so i looked for an alternative . phyllis had been lying in that hospital bed in a comatose state for over a year without a sign of improvement . i happened to have read an article by dr . cutler about an experimental drug -- jack : experimental ? ! do you have any idea how many things could have gone wrong ? ! victor : obviously it did n't ! she 's here in the flesh , is n't she ? phyllis : avery and summer never said a thing about an experimental treatment . victor : because i did n't tell them . jack : you have no right to go behind her family or my back to make determinations about her medical care ! where the hell do you get this authority ? phyllis : you definitely overstepped . my question is , why did n't you tell anyone ? victor : because i did n't want to get anyone 's hopes up in case the treatment did n't work . phyllis : i may have just woke up from a 12-month nap , but i am clear - headed enough to know when someone is being evasive , so i 'm gon na ask you again . there is no love lost between us , victor , and i would have thought you 'd be glad to have me out of the way . so , for you to go all of the trouble to bring in this special doctor , why ? why were you so anxious to have me back ? michael : she 's not here yet . are we early ? lauren : a bit . it 's too bad . could have spent more time upstairs . michael : is it my imagination , or are you glowing ? lauren : normally i would say it was you . but i feel like i am . i do n't remember the last time i felt this happy . michael : neither can i . lauren : and those problems we were having , i mean , they just seem so far away . why were they even an issue ? michael : we were both working too hard and not making enough time for each other . that does n't matter . none of it matters anymore because we are never gon na have those problems again . lauren : no , we 're not . and i would like to drink to that . michael : hold on . here we go . [ glasses clink ] nick : how can you even say that to me ? you know how much i want to marry sharon . vick , you came to my wedding . i thought you were behind us . victoria : i was trying to be supportive , nick . i know how much you love the woman , all right ? but look at you . you 're a mess . sharon has made you a mess , and this is not the first time . look at everything she 's done to our family . nick : no , stop . we 're not going there . victoria : and even if dad uncovers the secret and it turns out to be nothing , sharon is still going to screw up . do you really want to sign up for that ? i really do n't want to see you hurt again . how many times have you two tried ? there is a reason why you and sharon do n't work . you know that , right ? nick : well , i want to marry sharon , and that 's the end of it . i mean , sharon has been through so much , and i 'm proud of the way she 's handled it . victoria : i understand wanting to move forward with someone that you love , but to ignore their history , i mean , i do n't mean to offend you , but it 's just not wise , nick . nick : you know what ? this is n't even about me and sharon anymore . this is about billy and stitch and the decision you have to make . sharon : having phyllis suddenly show up like that was a shock . it was a shock for everyone , not just me . noah : sure . but you were the only one that panicked and rushed out of the church . where 'd you go ? sharon : to the cemetery to talk to cassie . i was scared . noah : of what ? phyllis ? why ? sharon : eat your sandwich . noah : no , mom , wait . do n't . do n't , okay ? i can tell when something 's wrong . sharon : i do n't want to talk about it . noah : why would you be afraid of phyllis ? i mean , i understand you guys have never gotten along , but ... sharon : there have been times when i was at cassie 's grave and i had flashes of phyllis being there with me . noah : before she came back for real ? what do you think that means ? sharon : i do n't know . i 've been wracking my brain to try to figure it out . i just come up with nothing . noah : mom , it probably does n't mean anything . sharon : it means everything . and until i figure out what , i can not marry your father . victor : it is true , phyllis . you and i are n't close . but i 'm very fond of summer . and she missed her mother terribly , and i could n't stand by and watch her suffer . jack : oh , please . i hope you 're not buying this . victor : but you 're all right now . you 're back . jack : and what ? we 're supposed to thank you as the hero here for getting in the middle of something that was none of your business ? ! victor : summer is my business ! i will always think of her as my granddaughter ! jack : i do n't care what you think . she is my daughter ! she is my flesh and blood ! phyllis : stop ! jack : you okay ? phyllis : no . i 'm not . paul : nikki ? nikki : [ gasps ] paul : i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to startle you . the door was open . nikki : i 'm so sorry , paul . [ chuckles ] i jump at my own shadow these days . paul : well , we 're all on hyper alert , but , uh , you know what ? in this case , it 's a good thing . but you could help us if you would actually make sure your door is closed . nikki : yeah . i - i know . i definitely will . i 'm sorry . i will . paul : i made a promise to make sure that nothing would happen to you , and , uh , so far , i 've been pretty lucky . i think i 'm a couple of steps ahead of ian this time . nikki : how do you mean ? paul : well , for one thing , i 'm pretty sure the burner phone he put in your glove box was bugged . nikki : he heard our conversation ? he knows that i 'm here ? paul : well , that 's the idea . nikki : oh , my god . paul : letting him in on the secret that you 're working with the police to have him apprehended . now that he 's realized that you 're not going to be meeting him at the place you arranged , he 'll come here instead where you 're hiding , thinking he 's gon na catch you off guard , and that 's when we 're gon na nab him . nikki : well , he has eluded you before . paul : he has , but this time , we are ready for him . this place is crawling with undercover cops . so he 's not gon na slip through our fingers . nikki : well , i am so glad that you have thought this through so well . paul : well , i 'm just glad i can be here to reassure you . nikki : hey . your friendship , your loyalty , that 's what i 'm clinging to these days . paul : [ chuckles ] well , cling away , 'cause that 's what i 'm here for . nikki : [ chuckles ] well , really since katherine sent me out on this journey to find my son , you have been right there with me the whole time by my side . paul : well , here i am again . and we 're working together again to see this thing through . nikki : we make a pretty good team , huh ? paul : yeah , we sure do . [ chuckles ] nikki : i 'm grateful for it . thank you . dylan : come on ! will you just get harding ? ! i need to talk to him ! what is the problem ? ! will you call him for me ? ! harding ! harding : will you please shut the hell up ? and notice i said please . dylan : okay , wait , i need to know what 's happening . is nikki safe ? is she in the suite ? is there any sign of ward ? harding : calm down . everything 's fine . everything 's under control . dylan : well , you just love this , do n't you ? you love keeping me in the dark , watching me go crazy , your petty way of repaying me for what happened to paul . harding : you are a suspect in a murder investigation . i do n't owe you a thing . dylan : you said you could have come up with a better plan . which means you have doubts about this one . why do n't you tell me what they are ? harding : why should i ? dylan : because if something goes wrong and you could have prevented it , that 's on your head . stitch : okay , max . you be good now . you listen to your mom , and i 'll talk to you again real soon . bye , buddy . i love you , son . maureen : was that max ? he was so big , i could hardly even recognize him . stitch : yeah , i know the feeling . maureen : it would have been nice to say hi . stitch : i 'm lucky jenna lets me talk to him . she 's very strict about our video calls . maureen : he 's your son . stitch : yeah , he is my son , and he 's living on the other side of the world . now do you understand everything i 've lost ? was it all worth it ? maureen : you should n't have had to pay such a heavy price . you -- you ca n't dwell on the past . you have to stay focused on your future . stitch : my future , huh ? maureen : yes . are you gon na tell victoria the truth so you can get back together ? stitch : i told you . you have nothing to worry about as far as i 'm concerned . maureen : okay . i 'm glad to hear that . it 's -- it 's for the best , honey . i know i can trust you . stitch : if only victoria did . victoria : look , billy 's moved on , and i have no interest , and i do n't want him or ben in my life right now . nick : you seem upset . victoria : [ sighs ] look , we were talking about you , not me . nick : well , i already told you i will support whatever decision you make , but seeing how uncomfortable you are talking about either one of them , i got to think something 's changed . victoria : no . nick : so , before you start trying to cover it up or lie to me , just know i ai n't leaving here until you tell me what it is . victoria : all right . maybe something happened , but it 's mainly because of abby . nick : what did abby do ? victoria : she was going on and on the other day about how billy and i should get back together , and then ben came by and i sort of rebelled . nick : how ? victoria : i kissed hi i know . i know it was a mistake , and i know i should n't be sending him mixed signals . i know that . nick : why else was it a mistake ? victoria : nick ... nick : tell me . victoria : i do n't know . i mean , i just got all churned up inside , and i thought that i was over him , and ... nick : but you 're not . you still have feelings for him . victoria : i do n't know . i do n't want to have feelings for ben . i do n't want to have feeling for anybody . i just want to give all of my love to this baby . nick : well , once my niece or nephew gets re , everything 's gon na be a lot more clear . victoria : i 'm sure you 're right . harding : if you think you can play me , do n't even try . you 're out of your league . dylan : will you quit puffing your chest out for a minute and listen to me ? my mother put herself in danger to catch that sociopath . if he finds a way to slip into that club -- harding : he wo n't . we have all the entrances and exits covered . dylan : yeah , by undercover cops who look like cops ! harding : do n't be an idiot . the chief and i checked them all out personally . just simmer down . dylan : what about the trap door in the basement ? harding : what trap door ? maureen : it 's hard not to feel sorry for yourself . stitch : [ laughs ] oh , okay . that -- that 's what you think i 'm doing ? maureen : terrible things happened to you , to all of us . what happened to your father i do n't regret at all , and you should n't , either . you were extremely brave . stitch : [ scoffs ] i - i know i did the right thing . it 's just seeing max , talking with him , when i ca n't hug him or play catch with him or , you know , it 's just ... maureen : i know . i know . i know how much that hurts you , honey . but you 've never let what happened keep you from moving forward before . i want you to be happy . stitch : that makes two of us . maureen : then go fight for what you want . you know , it 's -- it 's probably too late for me to find happiness , but it 's not too late for you . if you want victoria , you go after her . and do n't let anyone or anything get in your way . noah : of course you can marry dad . why would you let phyllis get in the way of that ? sharon : because she knows , noah . noah : knows what ? sharon : the secret . whatever unforgivable thing i did that could hurt nick and break us up forever , phyllis knew what it was before the accident . she was the only one who knows , and now she 's back . noah : so that 's why you 're freaking out , because you 're afraid that she remembers . sharon : why else would she go to great lengths to disrupt my wedding ? noah : because it 's phyllis ! she likes to make everything about herself . sharon : she hates me . i could see it in her eyes when she walked through those doors . she was staring right at me . my heart almost stopped . if she had n't fainted , i 'm sure she would have blurted out to everyone what i did because she knows that it would devastate nick ! noah : [ sighs ] okay . the visions of phyllis at cassie 's grave . sharon : yeah , those seem very real . i ca n't explain it , but it 's like it really happened . noah : have you talked to your therapist about it ? sharon : what would be the point of that ? noah : mom . sharon : i want to marry your father . i want us to be a family again , noah , but i ca n't , not until i figure out what 's going on in my head and how to stop phyllis from controlling my life ! phyllis : i am not gon na let the two of you argue over my daughter . summer and i are reunited . that is all that matters . jack : i 'm sorry i upset you , okay ? victor : i just came here to remind you how much i love my granddaughter . phyllis : i know . but what i do n't know is everything else that happened while i was gone . there is so much i need to catch up on . victor : oh , yes , you do . phyllis : must have been awful for jack , being alone all that time . and i am so sorry for making him suffer . victor : he suffered terribly while you were gone . jack : i am enormously relieved and happy that you are back . it has been a tumultuous year . victor knows that . as a matter of fact , why do n't you fill her in on all that 's happened with your family ? nicholas and sharon have had a particularly difficult time , have n't they ? victor : you see , jack , i did n't come here to tell phyllis about all that she has missed . i 'll leave that to you . phyllis : fine . fine . if you 're not gon na help me fill in the blanks , then why did you stop by in the first place ? what is it you needed to see me about ? paul : well , uh , i do n't suppose victor 's too happy to hear that we 're working together again . especially now that you have , uh , seemingly set yourself up as a target for ian . nikki : we , uh , have n't exactly connected . paul : what do you mean ? nikki : well , he 's out of town on business . paul : what ? still ? nikki : yeah . since he wo n't tell me where he is or when he 's coming back , i 've decided to just not return his phone calls . paul : aha . because you do n't want him to know what we 're up to , just like you did n't want him to know what we were up to when we were looking for our son ?

[ scene_break ] roman : all right , so wait a minute here , let me get this straight . you saw will carrying around a gun last night ? sami : no . uh , lucas did . but he took it away from will very early in the evening , so i 'm just making it clear that it could n't possibly be the gun that was used to kill stefano . roman : well , actually , the gun that was used to kill stefano belongs to abe . sami : oh ! well , then -- how could will 's fingerprints possibly be on abe 's gun ? roman : that is exactly what i would like to know . obviously , will was there , because abe said he left the gun at the mansion . and will came in contact with the murder weapon . so , will , talk to me . why were you at the dimera mansion last night ? | bo and hope were at john and marlena 's townhouse to talk about the information on stefano 's murder . bo and hope said a ballistics report said that the murder weapon was abe 's . they said that the police had proof that abe 's gun was used to kill stefano . john asked if the police thought abe killed stefano . marlena asked if abe was arrested . bo said abe 's prints were n't the only ones on the gun . john wanted to know whose prints were on the gun . bo said the lab found seven other prints including the four of them . john asked if all of them were suspects . hope said they were . she told them that she and bo were n't on the case because they are suspects . she said roman is investigating the case until the governor sends another in his own investigator . bo said the only reason why they know about the report is because of a friend of his . john said that each one of them at some point touched abe 's gun . marlena admitted to being at the mansion . she said she had things to get off her chest so she confronted stefano . she apologized for not being honest with john . john said he was n't being honest either . marlena asked why he went over there . he said he went for the same reason . hope said they all did . bo wanted to know where that left them . at sami 's apartment , ej told roman that he did n't kill stefano . ej said if he knew who did , he would n't keep quiet . roman thought unless the person who killed stefano was ej . sami thought roman was being crazy because ej and stefano were close . ej said stefano was his father so he did n't have a motive to kill him . roman gave ej a large brown envelope . ej wanted to know what it was . roman said it was ej 's motive . ej opened it and found out it was stefano 's will . roman said that ej was taken out of the will . roman thought it was ej 's motive . sami asked if ej knew about it . ej said he did n't . ej said it was no secret that he and stefano have n't been getting along lately . he said the will carried no weight because it was n't executed and there were no witnesses . there was no legal ground for the will . he thought it was a prop for his father 's amusement . roman wanted to know what he meant by prop . ej said it was one of those things that his father would wave in his face from time to time . he said stefano always threatened to disinherit him . he said stefano never executed it . roman said ej might have made sure stefano did n't execute it . ej suggested that roman needed a tighter case if he thought that he killed stefano . roman told ej that his prints were on the gun . ej said he was at the mansion to see his father . he said he saw the gun sitting there . when he could n't find stefano , he left . roman said when they talked earlier he did n't mention that . ej said roman would have twisted it around to make him look guilty . roman did n't think a lot of twisting was needed . ej asked if roman was going to arrest him . roman said no , but he needed him to come to the police station to take a gunshot residue test . roman warned him not to leave salem . roman called rafe to reinstate him on the force . since bo and hope were gone , roman needed all of the help he could get . rafe agreed to help . | <s>[INST] sonny : stefano dimera 's murder is all anyone 's talking about today . will : i know . sonny : how 's chad doing ? will : i do n't know . a mess , probably . sonny : yeah , and i feel for him . i know he was n't close to his dad , but can you imagine , like , losing one of your parents ? will : no . sonny : yeah . and ej , i thought he 'd be on the tv , like , talking about revenge and justice , but ... i guess he 's taking it hard too . will : yeah , i would n't know . sonny : what do you mean you would n't know ? did n't you talk to him ? will : no . sonny : no ? you guys -- i thought you guys were bro 's . are n't you tight ? will : no , we were , but i do n't know , pretty mad at me . he fired me , actually . sonny : wait , what happened ? will : stefano . he ruined everything . [ scene_break ] hope : hey , hi , yeah . marlena : hi , come on in . bo : hey . hope : hi , john . john : hey , what 's going on ? bo : we have information on the murder . john : yeah ? yeah ? what 's up ? hope : yeah , the , uh , ballistics report 's back on the gun found at the scene . bo : we know it was abe 's because of the serial number , but now the police have proof that that was the gun used to kill stefano . john : i see . so , what 're you saying ? they think abe did it ? marlena : has he been arrested ? bo : [ chuckles ] yeah . here 's the kicker . abe 's were n't the only prints on the gun . john : who 's the other person ? hope : you mean `` persons . `` plural . bo : the lab found matches for seven other prints on that gun . including the four of us . [ scene_break ] nicole : do n't tell me to calm down , okay ? it 's not possible for me to calm down right now . rafe : nicole ... i 'm sorry . okay ? i 'm -- nicole : no , no . please , please do n't apologize . rafe : no , look -- i thought worst - case scenario , we would figure out a way to switch these damn dna test results so that ej did n't know he was the father of this baby . does n't look like that 's gon na happen . daniel : i believe you 're switching a dna test . were you ? do you really think you can get away with it ? nicole : yes . no , i - i do n't know . i do n't -- i 'm just scared , daniel . what am i gon na do when ej finds out this baby is his ? oh , who am i kidding ? ah , god ! you know , you -- you -- you did the noble thing . you -- you stepped up , and -- and claimed to be the daddy , and i think i just -- i always knew that ej was gon na find out the truth . and guess what , today 's the day . yay ! i just -- i ca n't wait for this to be over . rafe : i just wish there was something else that i could do . nicole : you have done so much for me already . you 've taken care of me , you listened to me , and i will never -- i will never forget that . but you know what , your responsibilities are over ... as of today . rafe : maybe not . maybe not . ej 's father just died . maybe he wo n't show up . you know ? nicole : yeah , i wish . but nothing is gon na stop ej from claiming this kid . not even his father 's death . [ scene_break ] ej : roman , i did n't kill my father , and if i knew who did , i would n't keep quiet about it . roman : unless , of course , the person who killed your father was , uh , well , you . sami : oh , dad , you ca n't be serious . everyone knows how close he was to his dad . ej : he 's my father , roman . i do n't have any motive to kill him . what 's that ? roman : your motive . [ scene_break ] nicole : daniel , hi . daniel : hi . sorry , i did n't mean to startle you . nicole : uh , that 's okay . i mean , this is your office . i 'm just a little jittery today , that 's all . daniel : yeah . well , the test results should be ready in a minute , and this 'll all be over soon . nicole : yeah , well , i already know what they 're gon na say . this is just the beginning of my living hell , so ... rafe : hey , hey . come on , come on , who knows ? maybe now that stefano 's gone , ej wo n't be such a bastard . nicole : [ scoffs ] rafe : hmm ? nicole : no , rafe , i 'm -- i 'm afraid he 's gon na be the opposite . losing his father , i 'm afraid , is just gon na make ej even harder , and ... now he 's gon na have all the dimera family money and power , and when he finds out that this baby is his , nothing is gon na stop him from taking my child . you get that ? rafe : okay , okay . [ scene_break ] ej : it 's my father 's will . roman : yup . and you will notice there have been some recent revisions there , most notably , you have been taken completely out of that will . sounds like a motive to kill , does n't it ? sami : but did you know about that , ej ? ej : no , i did not . i do n't think it 's any secret that my father and i have not been getting on lately , but this -- this -- this document has no weight , roman . it has n't been executed . there is n't a witness . there 's no legal grounds for this . it 's just a prop for my father 's amusement . roman : what do you mean , prop ? ej : it 's one of those things he 'd wave under my nose from time to time just to satisfy himself . he was always threatening to disinherit me for one reason or another . it 's the game that he would play . you know my father . he loved to play these little games . roman , he did n't execute this . he never would . roman : maybe because you made sure he would n't . ej : commissioner , i 'm going to suggest to you that you need a much tighter case if you 're seriously thinking of accusing me of my father 's murder . roman : well , how 's this for a tighter case ? your fingerprints were found on the murder weapon . [ scene_break ] john : hmm . so ... all of us are suspects . hope : that 's right . that 's why bo and i are on the case . roman 's handling the investigation himself until the governor sends his own investigator . bo : the only reason we know about this report is because i got a buddy in forensics . john : so at some point last night , each of us handled abraham 's gun . does that mean -- marlena : yes . yes . i went to the mansion . john : [ sighs ] marlena : i had some things i wanted to get off my chest , so i confronted him . and i 'm sorry . i 'm so sorry i did n't tell you the truth about it . john : no , obviously , i was n't completely honest with you either . marlena : john , why did you go there ? john : same reason . i went to confront him . hope : apparently ... we all did . bo : so where does that leave us ? [ scene_break ] ej : i was at the mansion last night . i went there to see my father . and yes , i saw a gun sitting there . but as my father was nowhere to be seen , i just left . roman : when we talked earlier , why did n't you mention any of this ? ej : 'cause i knew that you would misunderstand it and twist it around into making me look guilty . roman : well , i do n't think a whole lot of twisting is required . ej : okay , so are you going to arrest me or not ? roman : no , i 'm not , but i do need you to come down to the station , take a gunshot residue test . ej : perfect . roman : and , mr. mayor , this would not be a good time for an out - of - town junket . do n't leave salem . and if , perchance , you happen to remember anything that 's useful , you call me . ej : let me make something clear to you . i want the man or woman who killed my father caught just as much as you do . roman : i 'm not sure about that . ej : roman , my father and i may not have always had a perfect relationship , but he 's my flesh and blood , and you know that , to a dimera , that means everything . [ scene_break ] nicole : well , rafe , the good thing about the truth coming out is you do n't have to lie for me anymore . you 're a -- you 're a free man . you 're no longer tied to me because of our baby . rafe : oh , really ? i 'm not a free man . i told you i was n't worried about that . nicole : i know , i 'll just always feel so bad for coming between you and carrie . rafe : do n't -- no . no , carrie and i -- we just were n't meant to be . she 's having austin 's baby and , uh , everything works out for a reason . [ cell phone rings ] rafe : hmm , it 's roman . i should probably take this . nicole : yeah . rafe : excuse me . yeah . daniel : nicole , i want to talk to you ... about what happened last night . rafe : what 's that ? you want to reinstate me ? roman : yeah , with bo and hope gone , i need all the help i can get on the stefano murder case . rafe : yeah , but the i.s.a . ? roman : got it all worked out with shane . you were working on bringing down stefano , now you 're working to find his killer . and besides that , when that state investigator comes down here , it 'll ease my mind knowing i 've got one of my people on the case . and not just anybody . one of the best detectives we 've ever had . rafe : [ chuckles ] well ... thanks a lot for the compliment , and the opportunity . roman : well , do n't thank me yet . i got a feeling we 've got a long , hard road ahead of us . [ scene_break ] ej : earlier , you said you thought i had reason to want my father dead . do you believe roman ? think i did it ? sami : no . no , i do n't . ej , i know how you felt about your dad . [ chuckles ] it was clear what he meant to you , and that you were willing to do anything over the years to follow him , do what he asked ... be part of him and his work . and look , ej , you are 50 shades of messed up , but i get it . i get how you care about him . i get what you 're going through . ej : thank you . sami : and i know how important family is to you . ej : [ sighs ] yeah . speaking of family ... [ sighs ] today 's the day the results of nicole 's paternity test come in , so ... sami : [ scoffs ] ej : i should probably get going . get to prove that i 'm the father of that child and not rafe . sami : well , let me know how it goes . ej : i will . hey . thank you . [ scene_break ] sonny : so , what do you -- what do you mean , that stefano -- he -- he blackmailed you to break up ej and nicole ? how ? will : by making sure that rafe found out that my mom and ej had sex . and he knew that ej would be confronted by rafe , and nicole would find out , and she would break up with him . which is exactly what happened . sonny : rafe found out the day at the pub ... when he overheard us talking ? will : yeah . sonny : so your -- your big confession to me was for rafe 's benefit , huh ? you used me to carry out an order from stefano ? will : no , i did n't . i promise i - i - i did n't . i - i -- that was n't my plan . i needed someone to talk to , and i really wanted to talk to you , and it was just a -- it was a complete coincidence that rafe walked in . and i do n't know , i thought it was , like , a now - or - never moment . and i could -- i could let him overhear , and i would n't have to tell him to his face . sonny : that 's twisted , man . that 's really twisted . it 's like , you let stefano order you around ... and it broke up your mom 's marriage . will : i know , i 'm sorry . i - i made -- i - i 'm -- i screwed up . sonny : yeah , you did . will : but i do n't want you to feel like i used you in any of this , because -- because i did n't . i - i - i really have appreciated , you know , you being there , and you listening to me . i mean , it 's -- i guess what i 'm saying is i 'm -- i 'm sorry , and maybe i could make it up to you . maybe i can earn your forgiveness . sonny : yeah , yeah . will : yeah ? okay . sonny : yeah , of course . will : great , great , great . sonny : of course . will : okay , because thanks to stefano , i just -- i do n't know , i lost a lot . i lost my apartment , i lo -- i 'm homeless , basically . i lost my job . i lost ej 's trust . i do n't know . and when i think about everything he 's done to me , and everything he 's done to my family , i 'm glad he 's dead . sonny : whoa , hey , do n't -- do n't be saying stuff like that . people are gon na think that you actually killed stefano . will : you do n't think i offed stefano , do you ? sonny : no , but i just do n't wan na see you get in trouble . and because your friendship means a lot to me . sami : will , there you are . i 've left a million messages for you . will : why ? sami : what do you mean , why ? your dad told me that he saw you last night , and how upset you were . we 've been really worried about you . will : everything 's fine , mom . if -- you could 've seen , if you even acknowledged , i 'm , um , hanging out with sonny . sami : right . hi , sonny . sonny : hey . sami : it 's good to see you . sonny : good to see you . sami : um ... sonny : i 'll let you guys -- sami : yeah . so , will , you know , if you could answer any of my phone calls , i want to help . will : help ? i do n't need your help . sami : but -- will : just 'cause i came out does n't mean i need any help . sami : i did n't say that . will : not your help , anyway . sami : i 'm your mother . i 'm not offering to help you because you 're gay , i 'm offering to help you because i think you need it . will : okay . what exactly do you think i need help with ? sami : [ sighs ] will : oh , i mean , anything you want to say , you can say in front of sonny . unless that makes you , uh , uncomfortable . sami : will , get this through your head : i love you . i love you no matter what . will : really ? no matter what . hey , come here . what if i told you that , um , sonny and i , um , are together ... and we 're in love ? huh ? is that okay with you ... us being together ?

i may not say ... or do all the right things , but i feel the right things . maya : you did ... until the whole world knew . katie : yes . i agree . whoever wrote that headline should be fired , and we are . we are in communication with the transgender community . or at least we should be . ivy : hey . katie : oh , hi . liam 's not back yet . ivy : oh , yeah . i know . i thought i 'd wait for him in his office . but , hey , he could have a new office at forrester . katie : so ... it 's done -- the takeover ? ivy : yeah . apparently so ... all thanks to guess who 's back from paris again . katie : [ sighs ] eric : this -- this is a pipe dream ... some kind of revenge fantasy of yours . you ca n't remove me . ridge : this ... is about ownership . i own 20 % ... steffy has 25 % ... we have thomas ' proxy for 5 % ... and liam controls his father 's 12.5 % . so , we are revoking your power to name the next c.e.o . of this company . eric : the hell you are . i have the loyalty of all those employees out there . you know what they think of you ? they think of you as some kind of entitled egomaniac . one word from me , and they all walk . i hope the three of you can sew . ridge : you 're right , dad . the employees worship you . and if you ask them to leave , 8 out of 10 would . and we would replace them . liam : this is getting too hypothetical . ridge : and this is really how you want to reward them for their loyalty ? you want to leave them jobless ? steffy : no , no , no . no one is walking out . this does n't have to be a catastrophe or some big change . rick is out , and that 's all . eric : rick 's contract is ironclad . ridge : yes , it is , except for one thing -- morality clause . eric : what about your morality ? ! steffy : granddad , i know you 're gon na be angry with us for a while , all right ? eric : you know , it just occurred to me ... i wish you were more like your mother . nicole : i do n't want money . i want my sister . carter : this has got nothing to do with me , nicole . nicole : we have to tell maya not to leave . carter : either she already left or rick 's with her . if he ca n't change her mind , you and i ca n't . rick : i 've got to be real honest with you , and it 's probably gon na come out badly . maya : i 'm not policing you . rick : the same thing that happens to you happened to me . you said that you were afraid that i would think about you differently . maya : when people find out that i 'm trans , they get this look . they stop looking me in my eyes . rick : see , the same thing happened to me when i found out what spencer had done and that everybody knew and they were thinking about it and they were talking about us and our bodies and all our most intimate moments . and , maya , it made me scared . maya : it 's demeaning . rick : is that why it took you so long -- 'cause you did n't want me looking at you that way ? maya : that does n't matter . i owed it to you anyway . rick : yeah . i think you did . maya : you know , rick , when -- when i moved to l.a. , everyone knew all of the basic facts about me , and then when dayzee left , almost no one knew and no one asked any questions , and i thought it was a good thing . and then i fell in love . and now there 's no rulebook that tells you when you 're supposed to say things and how much . and i just did n't see how much i was cutting myself off from you and how i could n't tell you about my childhood and my teenage years and the time i climbed up onto the railing of a bridge , and it took a long time to come down . rick : you see , i want to know these things . i do n't like feeling cheated . maya : we can keep in touch if that 's something you 'd like . rick : maya . maya , why do you think i 'm here ? maya : i do n't know -- closure ? [ crying ] rick : i never heard the question . when you were on the phone and you were leaving big bear , you asked me something . what was that ? maya : [ crying ] if you still -- if you still love me , if you wanted to marry me . rick : [ crying ] you see , i never heard that . my car went off the road . i got -- i got pretty banged up . maya : what ? i - i thought -- rick : do you want to ask me again ? ivy : i do n't think eric knows what 's going on yet . bill : that 's my boy ! but liam better get something in writing . i mean , when ridge actually makes a decision , it always has a short shelf life . now , i 'm assuming that steffy dropped a certain precondition or we would n't be hearing about this from you . ivy : well , as far as i know , it was just a change of strategy . katie : do n't let steffy worry you . everyone knows how she operates . ivy : yeah , but i do n't think she does . i mean , in her mind , she 's just on the up and up -- you know , blazingly honest and all that . bill : so , rick finally learned that he ca n't treat a niece of mine like garbage . katie : when are you gon na stop using caroline to justify what you did to maya ? bill : that head case ? she 's a fraud . me ? what you see is what you get . steffy : we can finish this conversation later . eric : i think any conversation that you and your father want to have with me is pretty much over . liam : mr. forrester , if i 'm not mistaken , everyone here tried to tell you how bad things were under rick , and you did n't believe them . eric : i 'm disappointed in you . ridge : oh , god . eric : no surprise here . ridge : enough ! stop ! that 's enough ! call it karma . call it whatever you will . but any vote that you took , any decision that you made about rick , all led you to right here ! liam : hold on a second . wait . this is not retributive . steffy : okay ! i ca n't take this battle of male egos , all right ? ! nobody died . eric : i suppose you want me to clear out my office . ridge : you do n't have an office ! you gave it to rick . eric : and as long as i have breath in my body , he 's gon na keep it . ridge : no , i 'm sorry . that experiment is over . steffy : [ sighs ] [ door closes ] [ scene_break ] maya : so , you 're okay ? rick : it depends . maya : i am so sorry . i honestly thought that you -- rick : no , no , no . i get it . and maybe you think that the future does n't hold anything good for you . but we 're gon na have to unconvince you of that . [ cell phone rings ] rick : do n't leave . maya : it could be work . rick : no . you know what ? work can wait . maya : they 'll just call you back . rick : dad ? eric : well , ridge has done it , or at least he thinks he has . rick : done what ? eric : he found a way to get you out of the company , and me , too . rick : ridge is obviously bluffing . where are you ? eric : i 'm in the c.e.o . office , but the door 's locked . rick : i 'll be there as soon as i can . maya : what about ridge ? rick : apparently , he 's come up with some way to fire my dad and replace me . maya : you ca n't let him do that . you 've worked too hard for this . rick : yeah . we 're not finished here . maya : i 'm fine . you go . this is more than a job . i know how much this means to you . so , you go back there , and you do whatever you have to do to stop ridge . rick : promise me that you 'll still be here . maya : i 'll take my pack and i 'll go upstairs and i 'll wait to hear from you . you take care of business first . i 'm not going anywhere . rick : and to answer that question ... the one that i did n't hear ... i love you , maya . steffy : well , that was n't easy . ridge : you thought it was gon na be easy ? steffy : i feel for granddad . but he has to realize this is n't about him . this is about rick . ridge : ah , it goes further back than that . steffy : you mean brooke ? mom ? ridge : yeah , i think that had something to do with it . but it goes further back than that ... all the way to my mom and who she loved most . ridge : that question was always around but never asked around the dinner table . but it was always there . but my mom -- she knew something that dad and i did not ... that i was her biological son but not his . and that colored everything -- the way she treated us , the way we treated each other . and you know what , stef ? looking back , i - i think my dad and i -- we never had a chance . steffy : well , if you 're not his son ... i 'm not his granddaughter . i suppose we 're disowned after today . eric : ridge is probably having carter draw it up as we speak . rick : ridge controls the legal department through him . still , we 'll have to have a formal meeting , all the shareholders represented , voting on the record . i mean , we have till then . eric : what difference would it make ? they have the votes . rick : thomas is irrelevant . his holdings are n't enough for ridge and steffy to take controlling interest . why was liam there ? what , bill could n't make time in his busy schedule ? eric : ridge is n't gon na want to do business with bill . they hate each other . rick : so , what -- liam bought all his dad 's shares ? where 'd he get that kind of cash ? eric : i do n't know . i did n't ask . i doubt it was an outright purchase . rick : bill likes having his foot in the door here . he would n't just give that away . eric : what ? what are you thinking ?

[ scene_break ] carly : i 'm sure sonny would have been a lot more accepting of our friendship if he knew the reason you were working with julian is because sloane coerced you into it . jake : `` coercion . `` that 's such an ugly word . carly : what would you call dangling those charges over your head , forcing you to go undercover for him ? jake : [ clears throat ] could you please not broadcast my secret to the entire breakfast crowd ? carly : i 'm sorry . i just think the whole thing is unfair . jake : well , life is n't fair . have n't you noticed that yet ? carly : yes , i know that , okay ? the situation is what it is , and we 're gon na have to try and get you out of it . fortunately , i 've managed to convince sonny that you and i are just friends . jake : [ chuckles , groans ] given his entirely volatile attitude yesterday , i imagine there 's a catch to that . carly : yeah , there is . sonny does n't think it 's good for me to be seen with anyone who might be one of his enemies . jake : hmm . well , maybe we should give sonny what he wants . carly : well , how are we supposed to do that ? jake : maybe it 's time to put an end to our friendship .

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : cameron , this is very serious . cameron : i know it 's serious . spencer 's party went up in flames because of me . elizabeth : do n't tell me you started that fire on purpose . cameron : no . it was an accident . i swear ! elizabeth : [ sighs ] cameron : who 's gon na believe a pyro ? elizabeth : okay , just tell me what happened . cameron : emma and i got in a fight , and we broke up , so jocelyn and i decided to leave . we grabbed our swag bags on the way out . when i took mine , i think i knocked something over . elizabeth : knocked what over ? cameron : i did n't stop to see . but the newspaper said they think that the fire started because something fell into the candle on the table with the swag bags . do n't you see ? it 's my fault . now the cops are gon na take me to prison unless ric saves me ! [ scene_break ] molly : so , if you swipe right on someone who swipes right on you , then you get matched . ric : okay , and then what ? molly : you chat . ric : on the phone ? molly : no , probably texting or pm'ing . ric : oh . molly : there 's no need to jump right into phone calls . you can graduate to that later . ric : huh . imagine that . molly : try it . ric : no , no , i just -- i do n't . no . i just -- the notion of making a snap judgment on somebody based solely on their looks , it 's a little vulgar and reductive . molly : that is so romantic ... and super quaint . look , if the site is too sketchy for you -- and let 's face it , it 's really just a glorified hook - up marketplace -- there are other , classier ways to meet people ... ric : ah . great ! molly : ... online . ric : i love that -- online . molly : so , how about we whip up a profile for you and put it on a more serious dating site like letlovefindyou.com ? ric : uh , how about we not ? [ scene_break ] carly : i have never let anyone dictate who i spend time with . why would i start now ? jake : oh , i do n't know . because it could mean the difference between us surviving a mob war , and i -- carly : it 's not like this is n't my first mob war , and it 's not my second , and look , i 'm still here . jake : then the law of averages is n't your friend . maybe you should take notice . carly : if i 'm gon na be a target , it 's because i 'm with sonny , not because i 'm hanging out with you . and even if that did put me in julian 's cross hairs , it would n't matter . you know why ? jake : because you are incredibly stubborn . carly : because i do n't have a lot of friends , and the ones i do have , i hold dear . jake : okay , well , clearly , you mean so much to me , and -- carly : okay , then it 's settled . all right ? its -- it 's settled . mob war or no mob war , we 're staying friends . jake : one condition . carly : no , unconditional friendship is the only friendship worth having . jake : could n't you try listening ? please listen . carly : okay . jake : okay . we make an effort to be discreet . there is no reason to further antagonize sonny or julian . carly : okay . deal . jake : okay . deal . carly : okay , this is really happening at a good time because i have news , and i want points for being the best supportive friend ever because i 'm getting ready to tell you something despite my misgivings . jake : [ chuckles ] okay , duly noted . carly : ric and elizabeth broke up . you 're free to make your move ! jake : hmm .

[ clicks tongue ] and there i go again . nikolas : what ? sam : just rambling on without letting you get a word in , and i think that 's exactly how our conversation went last time , and you finally got a chance to interrupt me , and i would n't stop talking . and i mean , feel free to tell me now . [ scene_break ] spinelli : the last time i was in this gym , it was with jason . he was giving me invaluable advice on my love life . and now , here i am yet again , in desperate need of counsel in matters of the heart . sonny : spinelli , what am i , chopped liver ? spinelli : i would n't dare burden you . sonny : hey , i do my best work here . lay it on me . spinelli : well , uh , it 's maxie . i want her back . sonny : oh , i 'm sorry . i did n't know that you and ellie were n't together . spinelli : i will always deeply care for ellie , but i love maxie . sonny : she 's the mother of your child . spinelli : yeah . sonny : and , you know , when you love a person like that , it 's like that bond is unbreakable . spinelli : that 's very true . and now , if i can only find a way to sever the bond she has with her superfluously strapping new boyfriend , nathan west . [ scene_break ] maxie : [ scoffs ] the answer to your question is , of course , i love you . what ? are -- are you stupid ? you had me at -- at -- nathan : hello ? maxie : i do n't think we said hello that night . i think it was somewhere between , `` i 'm your subletter , `` and `` detective nathan west , nice to meet you . `` i mean , nathan , you 're my hero . nathan : i am ? maxie : yeah , do n't be modest . you rescued me from kidnappers , my sociopathic con man ex , and an exploding clinic . nathan : that was a hell of a day . maxie : [ chuckles ] it was also the day we had our first kiss , so i 'll never forget it . nathan : me neither . maxie : you refused to give up on me no matter how many times i tried to push you away . you would n't let me give up on myself or my daughter . and when that terrible judge legally forbade us from seeing each other , you -- you waited him out . you waited for me . nathan : you 're worth waiting for . maxie : that 's why i asked you if you were stupid . of course , i love you . i 'm head over heels for you . nathan : but ? maxie : there is no but . nathan : yeah , there is , maxie . you 're leaving something out . it 's okay . you do n't have to hold back . just say it . maxie : i do love you , nathan . but i love spinelli , too . [ scene_break ] ric : the truth is that i 'm not interested in other women , okay ? i only am interested and want elizabeth . [ cell phone thuds ] molly : what would you tell me if tj and i broke up , and i said i would never love anyone else ? ric : i would tell you that you 're a teenager , and you have your whole life ahead of you . molly : okay . well , you 're not a teenager . you 're not getting any younger . you 're burning daylight , so no dillydallying . ric : okay , fine . thank you very much . keep the compliments coming . molly : [ chuckles ] dad , i 'm sorry . i just want you to be happy , and i know you . if you dwell on elizabeth choosing jake , you 're liable to lash out and do something destructive . so how about you subvert expectations this once ... ric : [ sighs ] molly : ... and put that energy to good use ? ric : by finding someone new to love ? molly : well , i 'm not suggesting you just go out and marry the first woman you meet . ric : good . molly : just stay open to the possibility that there is life after elizabeth . just try it , and keep an open mind . ric : okay . all right . i 'll ... try it .

[ scene_break ] spencer : the fire marshals think that the fire started when something got knocked into a candle . i wonder who would do such a thing . who would be so careless ? patrick : well , the firemen are gon na do their job by investigating , and you have to do your job -- concentrating on your recovery . emma : he 's right . you need to get better so you can come home . then we 'll throw you a big party . spencer : i ca n't have a party . i do n't want anyone to see me like this . emma : not the way to live , spencer . you need to be with people . spencer : how many people ? emma : well , we can start small . why do n't we take you down to the playground ? you ca n't stay cooped up in here all day . spencer : why ca n't i ? emma : because it 's a beautiful day , and i want you to spend it with me . spencer : oh , i do n't know . emma : it 's not good staying here alone . come with me .

[ sighs ] and yet , he refuses to step aside . instead , he ensorcelled her with his jeweled gaze and his carnal embrace . you know , maxie never -- never faulted me for my lack of physical prowess , but just today , she [ sighs ] she made this veiled comment deriding my not particularly showy musculature . what am i to do ? i mean , how do i compete with the physical specimen such as nathan west ? sonny : maybe you should n't .

thomas : yeah . douglas played his part well , ah , begging her to marry me , making us a family again . vinny : you sound confident . i 'll give you that much . thomas : well , how 's this for confident ? i already designed hope 's wedding dress . vinny : you mean zoe 's , right ? thomas : no . i mean hope 's . uh , i made one for zoe , too . it 's fine . but the one i designed for hope , that one i 'm proud of . i told everyone it 's for hope for the future , but in reality it 's for when we get married again . zoe : married again ? [ chuckles ] thomas , what are you talking about ? thomas : uh , vinny , i got to -- i got to go . i 'll , uh , i 'll call you tomorrow . [ beep ] zoe : so who 's getting , uh , married again ? thomas : [ chuckles ] you , um , you ruined the surprise . we are . well , unless you think it 's just way too cheesy , but tomorrow 's ceremony 's gon na be great , but it 's really for -- for friends and family . i was thinking maybe we could do something a little more intimate , just the two of us , maybe like a renewal of vows on the beach on our honeymoon . zoe : [ laughs ] cheesy ? no . i , uh , love it . thomas : great . awesome . steffy : hope , i am truly sorry . i take full responsibility in my part in that misunderstanding . yes , i got caught up in the moment in that kiss . you can forgive me or not , but you have to forgive liam . this is n't his fault . he was innocent . he was manipulated by thomas and by me . he loves you , hope . you have to forgive liam . you have to . as a caricature artist , ridge : have you always been this way ? shauna : uh , what way ? ridge : glass half full kind of person . shauna : [ chuckles ] well , yeah . what kind of crazy person would want to be a glass half empty ? ridge : not me . but some people thrive on it . shauna : are we talking about brooke again ? ridge : yeah . i just -- i do n't remember her ever being so ... pessimistic about things , you know ? i just do n't -- i do n't know where she went . shauna : if you two are meant to be together , you 're gon na be together . and brooke is so lucky to have you -- your -- your love , your commitment . and i do n't care if she 's a glass half empty person or not . she knows a man like you only comes around once in a lifetime , so do n't you forget that . and do n't forget how special and hot you are . brooke : you 're a good man , bill spencer . bill : will you keep that down ? i 've got a reputation to protect . brooke : my lips are sealed . bill : hmm . brooke : now , i know that you 're busy and you 've got a lot going on , but i appreciate that you would want to stop by and check on me and make sure that i 'm okay . bill : i 'll always look out for you . you do know that , do n't you ? brooke : i do . bill : good . i mean , just because we 're not together anymore does n't mean that i do n't still , uh ... i do n't still care about you . i want to know you 're okay , that you 're happy . we did n't do marriage well , and i 'll never ... understand why . but we did a damn good job of taking care of each other , and i 'll take care of you until the day i die . you got it ?

ridge : well , as you know , thomas has been going through a bit of a rough time , but he 's coming out on the other end . he 's getting married to zoe . so that 's -- that 's a relief . and maybe some people will ... stop their suspicions . shauna : some people meaning brooke ?

is he supposedly getting married tomorrow ? brooke : yeah . to zoe . not that i believe that relationship is real . bill : why would you ? that diaper - wearing daddy 's boy has n't been honest about anything in his life . brooke : so you do n't believe him , either . bill : hell , no . anyone who does is a fool . liam : i called you as soon as steffy told me 'cause i wanted you to know right away . i want you to understand just how far thomas will actually go . he 's still lying to you . he is still manipulating you . steffy : thomas has n't moved on . he 's still obsessed with you . hope : well , he 's not the only one . steffy : excuse me ? hope : to not move on ? steffy : i 'm sorry . i -- hope : sorry for what , steffy , that you did n't trap me in a gondola this time ? liam : whoa . hope . thomas is the one who -- hope : forget about thomas . if you want to talk about lies , if you want to talk about manipulations , i ... am looking at the master . tired of clean clothes that just do n't smell clean ? shauna : do you think , if this wedding happens , that broke will still have her doubts about thomas ? ridge : i do n't know why she should . she promised that if thomas moved on , if he married zoe , that she would accept him for who he is , maybe even forgive him . she gave me her word on that . but after what happened today , i 'm not sure that she 's capable of doing that . shauna : sorry . i can see how disappointed you are . hang in there . maybe brooke means what she says . i have a feeling this wedding tomorrow is gon na change everything . brooke : i want to believe thomas . bill : and i want to believe in the tooth fairy , but reality steps in . brooke : yeah , but it would be so much easier , you know , if ridge was right and thomas really was moving on from hope . bill : guess you 'll find out tomorrow . brooke : yeah . maybe thomas will prove us wrong and he will get married to zoe , and then i 'll be relieved 'cause i 'll be able to tell ridge that he was right . bill : tooth fairy , brooke . tooth fairy . brooke : i know . how do you do it ? bill : hmm ? brooke : how do you make me smile , even in the worst of times ? bill : oh . well , is n't it good to know that there are some talents you never lose ? brooke : yeah . well , i appreciate it . and i appreciate you . and i really have been feeling lonely , being the only voice of reason . bill : you 're never alone , brooke . i 'm here for you . i 'll support you . whatever happens at that wedding tomorrow , you 're got a friend in me . vinny : you really think hope will stop it ? thomas : yeah . douglas played his part well , ah , begging her to marry me , making us a family again . vinny : you sound confident . i 'll give you that much . thomas : well , how 's this for confident ? i already designed hope 's wedding dress . vinny : you mean zoe 's , right ? thomas : no . i mean hope 's . uh , i made one for zoe , too . it 's fine . but the one i designed for hope , that one i 'm proud of . i told everyone it 's for hope for the future , but in reality it 's for when we get married again . zoe : married again ? [ chuckles ] thomas , what are you talking about ? thomas : uh , vinny , i got to -- i got to go . i 'll , uh , i 'll call you tomorrow . [ beep ] zoe : so who 's getting , uh , married again ? thomas : [ chuckles ] you , um , you ruined the surprise . we are . well , unless you think it 's just way too cheesy , but tomorrow 's ceremony 's gon na be great , but it 's really for -- for friends and family . i was thinking maybe we could do something a little more intimate , just the two of us , maybe like a renewal of vows on the beach on our honeymoon . zoe : [ laughs ] cheesy ? no . i , uh , love it . thomas : great . awesome . steffy : hope , i am truly sorry . i take full responsibility in my part in that misunderstanding . yes , i got caught up in the moment in that kiss . you can forgive me or not , but you have to forgive liam . this is n't his fault . he was innocent . he was manipulated by thomas and by me . he loves you , hope . you have to forgive liam . you have to . as a caricature artist , ridge : have you always been this way ? shauna : uh , what way ? ridge : glass half full kind of person . shauna : [ chuckles ] well , yeah . what kind of crazy person would want to be a glass half empty ? ridge : not me . but some people thrive on it . shauna : are we talking about brooke again ? ridge : yeah . i just -- i do n't remember her ever being so ... pessimistic about things , you know ? i just do n't -- i do n't know where she went . shauna : if you two are meant to be together , you 're gon na be together . and brooke is so lucky to have you -- your -- your love , your commitment . and i do n't care if she 's a glass half empty person or not . she knows a man like you only comes around once in a lifetime , so do n't you forget that . and do n't forget how special and hot you are . brooke : you 're a good man , bill spencer . bill : will you keep that down ? i 've got a reputation to protect . brooke : my lips are sealed . bill : hmm . brooke : now , i know that you 're busy and you 've got a lot going on , but i appreciate that you would want to stop by and check on me and make sure that i 'm okay . bill : i 'll always look out for you . you do know that , do n't you ? brooke : i do . bill : good . i mean , just because we 're not together anymore does n't mean that i do n't still , uh ... i do n't still care about you . i want to know you 're okay , that you 're happy . we did n't do marriage well , and i 'll never ... understand why . but we did a damn good job of taking care of each other , and i 'll take care of you until the day i die . you got it ? brooke : got it . zoe : so , uh , vinny 's not gon na take you out tonight ? you know , for , like , a little bachelor party or something before you 're tied down to the old ball and chain ? thomas : yeah . uh , no . no , no , no , no , no . i do n't want to show up hung over . tomorrow 's too important of a day . zoe : good . well , in that case , i will be meeting with your grandfather and quinn , just to talk over some various details , so if you have any input , feel free to join . my only input is ... whatever my bride wants , my bride gets . zoe : [ chuckles ] thomas , zoe : [ chuckle ] steffy : please , hope , you have to forgive liam . hope : i do n't have to do anything you say . steffy : he was manipulated . hope : yeah , i 'm beginning to get that . you and your brother teaming up once again . steffy : that 's not how it is . i wanted to believe in my brother . i wanted to believe that he was over you and he was moving on with zoe . yes , it took time , but then i finally -- i finally started to believe . hope : until he called you and told you to kiss liam when i showed up . i mean , did that clue you in ?

i tried calling him but , uh , it keeps going to voicemail . devon : i have n't talked to him . nate : no ? charlie ? charlie : no , not since breakfast . why are you looking for my dad ? nate : i just need to talk to him about something . it 's , uh , no big deal . devon : be a little more specific , we can help you out , maybe . nate : cane did n't show up to , uh , visit lily today . i told her i 'd find out why . phyllis : i thought you hit rock bottom , but you -- you have gone even lower . in fact , i 'd say that this is a new low . billy : and people say i have no ambition . boy , if they could see me now . phyllis : you do . you sound really proud of yourself . i thought you were a victim . but that 's not actually playing very well for you , considering your womanizing ways . in fact , i bet if summer was n't around , you would have ended up with victoria . billy : well , as far as revenge sex goes , it would n't nearly be as effective . phyllis : why would you do this to my daughter ? no matter how cynical and jaded she has been , you knew that she had feelings for you , and you took advantage of all of that . billy : [ sighs ] phyllis : for what ? a - a -- just a fleeting moment of satisfaction ? phyllis : i am thrilled that you lost your job . and i hope you lose everything else . billy : [ sighs ] you know , taking summer to bed was n't one of my finest moments , but you know why i did it ?

kyle : uh , eight in the main house , plus a couple more for the live - in help . my grandfather built the estate back in the early ' 60s . but the pool house , which is where i crash , is a bit newer , which i like . tessa : okay , you can call it a pool house , but that thing 's like a little mini - mansion . kyle : yeah , i just had the bathroom updated . kitchen 's next . mariah : why ? because you 're such a gourmet chef ? kyle : i 'll have you know , i make a mean grilled cheese , and my microwavable popcorn -- people would kill for the recipe . mariah : okay . lola : i ca n't imagine living in a place so big . although , i would love to have a kitchen like the one we just came through . oh , god . the big , beautiful stove . and so much space ! and then the grill on the cooktop and two ovens ? i mean , this place is , like , out of a magazine . mariah : well , just so you know , this is n't only kyle 's place . i mean , your whole family practically lives here , right ? kyle : it just got a little less crowded . but nobody 's home but my grandmother , who 's asleep , and her nurse . so we pretty much have the place to ourselves . so let the games begin . cane : [ sighs ] nate : hey , man . sorry to interrupt . cane : hey . nate : your assistant said i 'd find you here . cane : cool . what 's going on ? nate : i was at the prison earlier , visiting lily . and she was a little worried that you did n't show up as planned . cane : yeah , yeah , yeah . i had this , uh , really important business meeting that kind of ran late , so i missed visiting hours . nate : a meeting . cane : yeah , yeah , yeah . yeah , a meeting . nate : you 're the c.e.o . of the company . cane : yep . that 's right . nate : lily was worried that something might have happened to you or the kids . cane : well , i hope you told her that was n't the case , right ? nate : well , i told her that , yeah , there was a logical explanation . cane : which there was . okay . nate : here 's the problem with that . you do n't understand how upset she was . mariah : okay , ready ? tessa : [ chuckles ] mariah : set ... [ laughter ] go ! kyle : um ... ah ! [ mariah chuckles ] um ... lola : it 's a book . kyle : uh , uh -- lola : and a movie . five words . kyle : um ... lola : first word . shakes . head . dizzy ? [ laughter ] what ? mariah : shh ! quiet . no words . lola : okay . uh , come back to it , okay ? second word ? second word . third word . sounds like . oh , my god . mariah : heh . lola : fourth word ? okay . sounds like four . kyle : um ... lola : fourth word . uh - huh . kyle : uh ... lola : old ! okay . something , something , for old something ? mariah : 30 seconds . lola : okay . hurry up . fifth word . you . kyle : no . lola : big . tall . proud ! macho ? kyle : [ exclaims ] lola : okay , something , something for old , strong arnold schwarzenegger -- mariah : time ! time , time ! kyle : `` no country for old men `` ! lola : i 've never seen it . kyle : seriously ? it 's such a great flick . mariah : okay . so that is , uh , four points for tessa and i versus your guys ' one point . tessa : yeah , i do n't think charades is your game . mariah : mnh - mnh . kyle : so , let 's switch to something else . how about truth or dare ? tessa : oh , i like it . mariah : yeah , i have n't played that game in , like , a million years . but it sounds fun . lola : who goes first ? kyle : you do . lola : ah . kyle : truth or dare ? lola : truth . kyle : okay . so ... you know all about my , um , recent brush with the law . so , why do n't you tell me the truth about a time when you did something wrong and regretted it . mariah : ooh . lola : uh ... let me think . ah , wait . i know . okay . so ... for the past few years , i have had a bunch of jobs , saving up for the day i could have my own business . um , so , i waited tables . i worked as a janitor . i collected tolls at a toll booth . that was a total snore . kyle : uh -- mariah : [ chuckles ] lola : and then i was hired at this used - car shop . mariah : around here ? lola : mnh - mnh . one - man show . middle of nowhere . i washed the cars and kept his books , and he did the sales part . uh , i was there for a month , and he still had n't paid me . kyle : what ? no way . lola : yeah . and when i accused him , he said i was fired . mariah : that sucks . that 's crazy . i 'm sorry . lola : i threatened to sue , and he just laughed in my face . said it would cost me more than what he owed me . [ sighs ] uh , i was really pissed , actually . tessa : what a creep . mariah : so what did you do ? lola : so , i thought about asking arturo to try to , you know , hash it out with this guy -- with his fists , you know what i 'm saying ? um , but i like fighting my own battles . so ... anyway . there was this old truck parked in the back of the lot . it did n't run , but if you looked at it -- you know , you 'd be like , `` what a piece of junk ! `` but when i looked at it [ sighs ] i saw so much potential , you know ? what a beautiful , beautiful thing it could become . kyle : your food truck . la vida lola . lola : do n't get ahead of my story . kyle : sorry . lola : i told him i would take the truck in payment for all of the hours i had worked . `` fine , `` he said . `` if you can drive this car out of this lot by sundown , you can have it . `` i made him shake on the deal , you know . and then he walked away and laughed at me like i was the dumbest female to ever live . tessa : well -- well , then -- then what happened ? kyle : [ chuckles ] lola : then i went to go get my tools , and went to every other vehicle he owned , basically cannibalized them for enough parts to start my truck . and i made him sign over the title , and i drove away before he realized what i had done . mariah : woman ! you rock ! tessa : you 're a badass ! kyle : that is one hell of a story . mariah : that is amazing . lola : thanks . kyle : month 's work for a few old car parts ? sounds fair enough to me . why do you regret it ? lola : oh , i don't . tessa : oh . kyle : okay . [ laughter ] your turn . lola : mariah , truth or dare ? mariah : truth . lola : same question . tell us about a time you broke the rules . mariah : i impersonated my dead twin sister to make somebody think that they were crazy , and i will regret it until my dying day . lola : wow . i do n't want to know the details on that . mariah : yeah , you don't . you don't . you really , really don't . it 's pretty much the worst thing that i have ever done . lola : mm . mariah : so , uh , my turn ? kyle : yeah . mariah : okay . tessa . truth or dare ? tessa : truth . mariah : same question . tessa : well , that 's easy . i stole your journal and plagiarized your most personal thoughts and wrote a hit song . good news is that mariah forgave me . bad news -- i was dropped from my label . lola : i am feeling a lot less of a badass now . kyle : i do n't think that 's a bad thing . mariah : no . tessa : yeah . mariah : definitely not . it , uh , must be nice to go through life without regretting the worst mistakes you 've ever made . lola : or i did something way worse than any of you , and i do n't plan to confess , because i plan to get away with it . oh , my god . look at your faces . i ca n't believe you guys fell for that . [ laughter ] mariah : wow . ugh . [ cellphone chimes ] tessa : okay . i see you . you know what ? i see you . [ mariah laughs ] lola : you know , i just have a slight poker face . i ca n't believe you have n't seen `` no country for old men . `` i have n't seen it . tessa : it 's so good . mariah : it 's good . lola : what is it about ? arnold schwarzenegger ? mariah : no . he 's not involved in it . tessa : you know what ? that would probably make it even more exciting . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . mariah : okay . does anybody want another drink ? lola : i 'll take a beer this time . [ doorbell rings ] mariah : tessa ? kyle : i got it . tessa : i 'm still working on this one . mariah : okay . [ grunts ] kyle : [ sighs ] summer . what 's up ? summer : um , i really need to talk to you . kyle : this is n't a good time . summer : yeah , for me , either . look , if there was anyone else i could go to -- there just -- there is n't , and i realized that i ca n't really do this alone . mariah : snowflake ! what in the world are you doing here ? summer : can i please just come in ? kyle : [ sighs ] tessa : oh . lola : [ chuckles ] mariah : [ clears throat ] summer : you 're , uh , having a party ? tessa : very observant . mariah : i 'll ask you again . what are you doing here ? kyle : summer 's going through something . she needs to talk . tessa : now ? mariah : you know what , she probably followed us here so she could spoil our night . kyle : mariah , lay off . she 's obviously upset . lola : and you 're the only one she can talk to ? kyle : [ sighs ] i would n't feel right about turning my back on a friend who 's obviously hurting . i 'm sure you can understand . lola : of course . you should do what you feel is right for ... your friend . mariah : kyle , summer has never been a friend to you , and if you do n't understand that by now , then i do n't -- lola : um , i think you , tessa , and i should go . uh , let them handle ... whatever this is . tessa : yeah , let 's go . kyle : hey . hey , hey . thanks . i 'm sorry about our evening . [ sighs ] summer : thank you for not slamming the door in my face . kyle : let me guess . billy . charlie : i just feel so guilty . i 'm having all this fun , and my mom is stuck in such a horrible place . shauna : charlie , don't . lily would n't want you being miserable all the time . devon : i second that . you have to live your life , man . you ca n't let the bad outweigh the good . charlie : yeah , i guess . devon : well , it 's very true . since hilary died , there 's been times when i 've done that . i thought that , if i was n't feeling anything other than anger and sadness , i was disrespecting her memory . then i realized , every time i 'm thinking about her , it just makes me feel bad . and hilary does n't want to be remembered like that . so i 've been working on letting go and focusing on the happy times , and what i loved about her , admired . when you talked about how she inspired you , it felt good to do it , right ? shauna : yeah . it sure did . devon : so , you know , i know the situation 's a little bit different 'cause of what 's going on with your mom , but the lesson still applies . she would not want you to be depressed and moping around and doing things like cutting class . she 'd want you to enjoy life , be happy . enjoy your senior year in school . i know she 's said these things to you . charlie : yeah . yeah , she has . devon : it 's time to take her at her word . nate : cane . cane : all right , listen . i told you i will deal with this , okay ? nate : fair enough . now , in case you get waylaid again -- cane : okay , which i won't . nate : look , i want to be able to calm lily 's fears . not showing up when you said you would , that is n't like you . cane : so , what 's your point ? what are you trying to say ? nate : my point is , i care about her , and i 'm trying to get a handle on how things happened . cane : all right , look . sometimes i go there , and i feel like i 'm making things harder for her , okay ? -i feel like i have to walk on eggshells and watch every single word i say while she just focuses on the other inmates and trying to make life easy for herself in there , okay ? and if you want me to be completely honest with you -- nate : yeah . cane : last time i went there , it was strained . nate : it must be hard , seeing how this is changing her . cane : [ scoffs ] nate : what you 're really saying is that the visits have gotten difficult for you . so when your meeting ran over , you took the day off . gave yourself an easy out without considering how it 's affecting her . cane : you have no idea what you 're talking about . nate : lily is my friend . cane : okay . nate : and after visiting her in that place earlier today , as difficult as this might have been for you , she is the one that has to go back into that cell and figure out how to get through another day . so if it seems like things are changing or she is developing an edge , that 's why . lily needs you as much as she ever has now . more . so you need to get over it and show up . 'cause it is only going to get harder . cane : [ exclaims ] [ sighs ] billy : can i get the usual , please ? cane : usual , please . billy : randy ... make it a double . cane : two , randy . cane : do n't even think about asking me for a job . billy : like i 'd ever work for you again . cane : oh , okay . i just figured you were back on the market following your , uh , triumph at jabot . billy : word travels . cane : yeah . well , it kind of does when you 're given the opportunity of a lifetime , and you botch it up so badly that your own family gives you the boot . billy : it 's like everyone says -- i 'm my own worst enemy . cane : mm - hmm . billy : oh , no . wait . that 's you . cane : [ snorts quietly ] i think that actually sums us both up . billy : yeah . let 's go with that . cane : yeah . let 's do that . i did something unforgivable today . tessa : game night turned into girls ' night . that 's not so bad . is it ? lola : i 'll let you know ' after a beer or two . mariah : because thanks to summer , you could n't even finish the one that i opened for you at kyle 's . i can not believe he let her hijack the night like that . lola : i can . you know , kyle said he thinks that i would n't want him to turn his back on a person in pain . said that , uh , he knew that i would understand . mariah : do you ? lola : mmph . mariah : yeah . that 's what i thought . tessa : okay . i know we do n't trust her -- mariah : not as far as i can throw her . tessa : but , still , is n't there a chance that summer is really have a crisis ? lola : okay , but even if she was , why run to kyle ? mariah : i swear that boy has a tattoo on his butt -- `` property of summer newman . `` lola : you know , that 's what she makes it seem sometimes . like she has some kind of claim on kyle . but after tonight , though , i have to wonder ... tessa : what ? lola : that maybe he left the door open , and she knows it . kyle : sounds like a bad scene . summer : yeah . it was horrible . you know i do n't know what was worse -- billy using me to get back at my parents or my mom just blaming me for everything . kyle : yeah . billy was wrong to do that to you . summer : i just -- i feel sick . i -- i do n't even know how i 'm gon na face them again . i do n't know . maybe i 'll just leave town . kyle : since when are you a coward ? or a quitter ? look , this is n't gon na be easy , but you need to handle this head - on . like that old saying -- `` only way out is through . `` summer : you 're making it sound like it 's hell on earth , kyle . kyle : look at it this way , champ -- you have mentioned wanting to make some changes in your life . what better time to do it than after you 've made a gigantic mess of things ? summer : [ scoffs ] kyle : [ chuckles ] attagirl . hey . you got this . hell , you can do whatever you put your mind to . as unique and outrageous as it may be . summer : [ exhales softly ] kyle : ca n't wait to see what 's next for you . summer : thank you . tessa : well , those two look jolly . mariah : maybe summer wrecked their night , too . tessa : do you -- do you think lola 's right ? mariah : what , about kyle still being hung up on summer ? i mean , i would n't be surprised . i ca n't believe he is being so dense . letting summer ruin his date with lola . especially when lola is so much smarter and funnier and nicer than her . she 's an actual human being . tessa : i thought you and the princess were doing okay . mariah : no . i was being civil for sharon 's sake . now that the wedding 's off ... tessa : gotcha . mariah : i do n't know . i guess it 's possible that summer could be in crisis . she 's a toxic person . that 's what happens , you know ? there 's bound to be blowback , and some of it will spill on you . tessa : right . mariah : or she could just be playing games . tessa : oh , okay . summer does n't want kyle , but she does n't want anyone else to want him , either . mariah : either way , he loses . tessa : well , since our double date was a flop , maybe we can have a real one . mariah : there 's an idea . you know , i was just thinking -- kyle : where 's lola ? tessa : oh , what happened to summer kyle : got her calmed down and sent her on her way . i was hoping we could salvage what was left of the evening . mariah : it 's too late . you blew it . phyllis : [ crying ] summer : mom ? phyllis : [ crying ] go away . i do n't want to talk to you . [ sobs ] summer : i 'm sorry . phyllis : so am i . so am i. i blamed you . i blamed you , and he -- he tried to hurt us both , and he did a damn good job . we 're both better off without that loser . billy : i 've never understood why lily puts up with you . cane : neither can i , buddy . neither can i . billy : she 's a wonderful woman . cane : mm - hmm . billy : not like phyllis . thank god she 's out of my life . cane : um , yeah . i heard what happened . sorry about that . billy : the whole town did . cane : yeah , but something tells me you guys will be back together within a month . you know , like the last time you broke up . billy : not this time . i went full scorched - earth . felt right in the moment . cane : always does . always does . billy : looking back , i -- i went too far . caused damaged that ca n't be undone . | nate goes to visit lily and he tells her about neil 's relatioship with ashley and lily is hurt that neil did n't tell her about it . lily is worried because cane did n't show up to visit and she asks nate to check and see if he is okay . nate finds cane who admits he thinks he makes things worse for lily when he visits her but nate reminds him that it is far worse for lily trying to survive each day in jail . nate tells cane that his wife needs him more then ever and he should put her needs first instead of thinking how uncomfortable he is every time he visits her . charlie and devon celebrate shauna winning her swim meet and devon advises the kids not to feel gulty about enjoying life because hilary and lily would want them to be happy . phyllis is very angry with billy for sleeping with summer , and she gives him a slap in the face after he admits he only did it so she would have to live with the image of the two of them together . mariah , tessa , kyle and lola have a double date game night at the abbott house and lola is hurt when kyle cuts things short to talk to an upset summer . summer wants to leave town but kyle tells her she has never been a qitter and she is more then capable of making a fresh start without having to leave town . summer finds phyllis at jabot crying and she apologizes to her for sleeping with billy . phyllis accepts the apology and they both hug each other while they cry . billy tries to drink his troubles away and he realizes that what he has done ca n't be undone . | <s>[INST] [ previously_on ] lily : but , cane , i am not the same person anymore . i am not who i was before the accident and before this place . arturo : hey , rey , did you know that lola 's dating someone ? rey : your fine , upstanding abbott was arrested for interfering with a burial ground . kyle : forget something ? lola : yeah . this . summer : i 'm an adult , and i can decide what 's best for me . it 's you . phyllis : what 's going on here ? billy : i was just about to tell summer that the reason why i slept with her was knowing what it would do to you when you found out . so , there we go . now you know . phyllis : how could you sink so low , to sleep with my daughter to get back at me ? ! summer : i can not believe that you just threw it in her face that way . billy : well , it 's two birds with one stone . it 's actually quite efficient . summer : [ gasps ] since when are you such a pig ? ! billy : since always . ask anyone . phyllis : really , summer , what did you expect ? tell me . what childish fantasies were running through your mind when you told mariah about nick and me ? summer : i did not tell mariah anything ! she overheard kyle and me talking . we thought that she could keep her mouth shut . but no . and then , after sharon blew up her own wedding , billy came to me and said that he wanted me . believe it or not , those are the facts . phyllis : i bet it took you 30 seconds to take your clothes off and jump into bed with him . summer : i thought that we had a real connection . that he was finally ready to act on it . and the next morning , i woke up , and he was already gone to rehab . i have been rooting for him to get better , hoping that things could actually go somewhere between us ... until now , anyway . you know , every horrible thing that people say about you is true . this whole time , i thought that my mom was wrong for you . it turns out you two are perfect for each other . billy : she 's turning into a little drama queen , is n't she ? phyllis : i think she 's telling the truth . billy : oh , she is . it was definitely my idea to sleep with her . because she 's not only your daughter , but she 's nick 's . and i ca n't tell you how sweet it was getting it on with the daughter of the two people that screwed me over . tessa : all right , well , my shift 's almost over . how much more work do you need to do ? mariah : i am almost done . i just need to hit `` send `` and ... voilà . i 'm all yours . tessa : ah . i like the sound of that . mariah : [ chuckles ] are you working at dark horse later ? tessa : no , i , uh , took the night off . i figured we could , uh , celebrate you coming home from your trip . mariah : i like the sound of that . tessa : you know that new movie that you 've been dying to see ? it 's streaming now . i figured we could go back to my place and watch it . mariah : hmm . a quiet night alone , no interruptions . sounds like a celebration to me . nate : i do n't know how long they 've been getting together , but , i mean , i have never seen neil text so much before . it 's sneaking out late at night to meet her , it 's -- lily : wait , he and ashley are seeing each other ? like , seriously ? nate : i -- i assumed he would have told you . lily : no , he -- he did n't say anything to me . i mean , he 's been alone so long . why would n't he share that with me ? nate : it 's just me guessing . i have n't spoken to him . it could be he feels self - conscious going on about it to you . lily : what , because he 's happy ? i mean , that 's ridiculous . why would n't i want to know about that ? [ sighs ] i 'm sorry . i -- [ sighs ] i just ... visiting hours are almost over , and cane was supposed to come here today , and he didn't . do you know why ? kyle : ahh , beat me to it . i was hoping i 'd find you here so i could buy you a coffee . lola : guess you 'll have to settle to watch me drink the one i just bought . kyle : after the week i had , you do n't know how good that sounds . lola : why ? what 's going on ? kyle : family drama . work drama . even for abbott standards , things are one hell of a mess . which i know must sound like the lamest excuse for not texting . lola : it 's cool . kyle : that 's sweet of you to say . lola : you know i 'm not the high - maintenance type . kyle : [ exhales softly ] good to know . still . i 'd like to make it up to you . lola : how ? kyle : taking you out tonight ? lola : mm ... i might be free . what 'd you have in mind ? kyle : well , i could requisition the jet . take you to dinner . lot of great restaurants in chicago . lola : you want to fly me there ... to eat ? kyle : i want to show you i 'm sincere . lola : by wasting a bunch of jet fuel ? kyle : [ chuckles ] okay . well , if that does n't appeal , tell me what i can do . lola : well , you can start by telling me why you were arrested for grave robbing . additional sponsorship phyllis : what the hell is wrong with you ? you got a problem with me ? you go to nick . you go to me . you do n't take your frustrations out on my daughter . billy : we were two consenting adults . i got nothing to apologize for . i 'm not hiding what i did . that would be you . phyllis : why do n't you stop acting like i cheated on you ? we were broken up . i threw you out of the house . that is nothing compared to what you did to my daughter ! billy : oh , i think it was pretty clear at the wedding that me and you , we were done . phyllis : no . you know what ? you -- heh ... you 're despicable . billy : and speaking of sharon , remind me to send her a thank - you note . for telling me the truth before i actually bought a ring . you snowed me . i was just arrogant enough to think that there was something different between me and you . that i was different than all the other guys in your life . phyllis : you know something , you were different . you were different . you were everything to me . billy : you really have a problem with being honest , do n't you ? try it . you like having people on the side . you always have . it 's why you keep all these men in your orbit . pretending to be the cool ex to string them along . this time , it was nick . we all know you still got jack on a string . phyllis : you think you hurt me with this disgusting move ? it 's nothing compared to what you 've done to yourself . lily : i mean , could there be a problem with the kids ? is that what 's keeping cane ? nate : i have n't spoken to him , okay ? i have no idea why he 's not here today . lily : well , inmate phone time is over for the day , so i ca n't even get in touch with him . can you please find out what 's going on for me ? nate : i will . lily : do you promise ? nate : listen , if you do n't hear from cane by tomorrow , give me a call . okay ? lily : okay . nate : all right . but i 'm sure there 's a simple explanation . there 's nothing to be concerned about . okay ? lily : okay . nate : all right . lily : thank you . nate : all right . [ sighs ] [ knocks on door ] devon : it was n't until the last lap that i knew you were gon na win . charlie : [ chuckles ] totally . devon : you guys were neck - and - neck . you were going all - out . you reached your hands out , crossed the finish line , took home the victory . it was incredible . charlie : yeah . the girl you were racing against , danielle , i could tell from the stands , she was like , `` what ? ! `` i was jumping around like a fool yelling , `` go , shauna ! `` [ shauna laughing ] could you hear me ? shauna : no , silly . i was in the pool , focusing on the race . charlie : i 'm gon na get so much grief at school for going against walnut grove . hey , i do n't care , though . you were awesome . shauna : thanks . i was pretty happy with my time . devon : you should be . you should be very proud , 'cause you put in a lot of hard work , and it 's paid off . shauna : ugh , the competition was way stronger than i 'm used to . okay , right before my event , danielle looked over at me , super - confident , like she knew she was gon na win . [ devon chuckles ] i started having all these doubts . un - until i remembered something hilary once told me right -- devon : it 's okay . i 'd love to hear what she told you . shauna : hilary said she loved it when people underestimated her . she said , `` use it . let it fuel you . `` so i did . and i cooked it out there . charlie : yeah . devon : that sounds just like hilary , too . shauna : you know , i felt like she was there with me today . i 'm -- i 'm sorry . devon : no , please . do n't be sorry at all . you have no idea how happy that makes me . really . lola : you went through all that trouble only to find out that your grandfather is your grandfather . kyle : the best possible outcome . knowing he 's john abbott 's son meant so much to my dad . when he thought that all had been taken away from him , he was a mess . he spent months searching for answers . i wanted to find those answers for him . to give him that . and made a stupid , impulsive decision . lola : you desecrated a grave . kyle : when you put it that way ... lola : [ sighs ] kyle : guess there 's no good way to spin it . lola : you know , part of me admires the lengths that you went to for your dad . kyle : and the other part ? lola : creeped out . kyle : so much for making a good impression . lola : my brothers wanted me to think the worst of you . rey did n't put anything in context . which i could strangle him for . he would have known everything that you told me from the police report . instead , he makes you sound like some moral degenerate . kyle : glad i could set the record straight . lola : you know , rey always does this -- tries to control my life . and arturo just jumps right on board . you know , they 're both having a huge fit because i 'm dating you . kyle : i 'm glad you did n't put that in the past tense . hope that means you 'll still let me take you out tonight . lola : sure . as long as our date does n't involve a cemetery . tessa : hi , lola . mariah : kyle , is this who i think it is ? kyle : yes . lola , this is mariah , an old friend of mine . mariah : hi . kyle : lola 's the new lady in my life . mariah : it is so good to meet you . lola : likewise . mariah : i have heard wonderful things , of course . tessa says that you blew her away with your barista skills . tessa : she totally did . and now i know the difference between cream and crema . lola : you were easy to teach . tessa : oh . mariah : well , it 's lovely to put a face with a name . kyle : so , what are you guys up to tonight ? tessa : well , actually , we were thinking -- lola : oh , wait . why do n't you hang out with us ? we can make it a party ? kyle : why not ? you free ? mariah : uh ... yeah . yeah , we could , uh -- we could go eat somewhere . tessa : see a movie ? kyle : or bowling . together : bowling ? kyle : what 's wrong with -- lola : [ chuckles ] kyle : okay . never mind . bowling 's out . what else could we do ? mariah : hit up an arcade , i guess ? lola : [ gasps ] i know what we can do . game night . devon : hey . nate : hey . what 's going on ? devon : how you doing ? nate : good . you ? devon : good , good . charlie : hey . nate : what 's going on here ? charlie : we 're celebrating ! come join us . nate : celebrating what ? shauna : i won my event .

i tried calling him but , uh , it keeps going to voicemail . devon : i have n't talked to him . nate : no ? charlie ? charlie : no , not since breakfast . why are you looking for my dad ? nate : i just need to talk to him about something . it 's , uh , no big deal . devon : be a little more specific , we can help you out , maybe . nate : cane did n't show up to , uh , visit lily today . i told her i 'd find out why . phyllis : i thought you hit rock bottom , but you -- you have gone even lower . in fact , i 'd say that this is a new low . billy : and people say i have no ambition . boy , if they could see me now . phyllis : you do . you sound really proud of yourself . i thought you were a victim . but that 's not actually playing very well for you , considering your womanizing ways . in fact , i bet if summer was n't around , you would have ended up with victoria . billy : well , as far as revenge sex goes , it would n't nearly be as effective . phyllis : why would you do this to my daughter ? no matter how cynical and jaded she has been , you knew that she had feelings for you , and you took advantage of all of that . billy : [ sighs ] phyllis : for what ? a - a -- just a fleeting moment of satisfaction ? phyllis : i am thrilled that you lost your job . and i hope you lose everything else . billy : [ sighs ] you know , taking summer to bed was n't one of my finest moments , but you know why i did it ?

kyle : uh , eight in the main house , plus a couple more for the live - in help . my grandfather built the estate back in the early ' 60s . but the pool house , which is where i crash , is a bit newer , which i like . tessa : okay , you can call it a pool house , but that thing 's like a little mini - mansion . kyle : yeah , i just had the bathroom updated . kitchen 's next . mariah : why ? because you 're such a gourmet chef ? kyle : i 'll have you know , i make a mean grilled cheese , and my microwavable popcorn -- people would kill for the recipe . mariah : okay . lola : i ca n't imagine living in a place so big . although , i would love to have a kitchen like the one we just came through . oh , god . the big , beautiful stove . and so much space ! and then the grill on the cooktop and two ovens ? i mean , this place is , like , out of a magazine . mariah : well , just so you know , this is n't only kyle 's place . i mean , your whole family practically lives here , right ? kyle : it just got a little less crowded . but nobody 's home but my grandmother , who 's asleep , and her nurse . so we pretty much have the place to ourselves . so let the games begin . cane : [ sighs ] nate : hey , man . sorry to interrupt . cane : hey . nate : your assistant said i 'd find you here . cane : cool . what 's going on ? nate : i was at the prison earlier , visiting lily . and she was a little worried that you did n't show up as planned . cane : yeah , yeah , yeah . i had this , uh , really important business meeting that kind of ran late , so i missed visiting hours . nate : a meeting . cane : yeah , yeah , yeah . yeah , a meeting . nate : you 're the c.e.o . of the company . cane : yep . that 's right . nate : lily was worried that something might have happened to you or the kids . cane : well , i hope you told her that was n't the case , right ? nate : well , i told her that , yeah , there was a logical explanation . cane : which there was . okay . nate : here 's the problem with that . you do n't understand how upset she was . mariah : okay , ready ? tessa : [ chuckles ] mariah : set ... [ laughter ] go ! kyle : um ... ah ! [ mariah chuckles ] um ... lola : it 's a book . kyle : uh , uh -- lola : and a movie . five words . kyle : um ... lola : first word . shakes . head . dizzy ? [ laughter ] what ? mariah : shh ! quiet . no words . lola : okay . uh , come back to it , okay ? second word ? second word . third word . sounds like . oh , my god . mariah : heh . lola : fourth word ? okay . sounds like four . kyle : um ... lola : fourth word . uh - huh . kyle : uh ... lola : old ! okay . something , something , for old something ? mariah : 30 seconds . lola : okay . hurry up . fifth word . you . kyle : no . lola : big . tall . proud ! macho ? kyle : [ exclaims ] lola : okay , something , something for old , strong arnold schwarzenegger -- mariah : time ! time , time ! kyle : `` no country for old men `` ! lola : i 've never seen it . kyle : seriously ? it 's such a great flick . mariah : okay . so that is , uh , four points for tessa and i versus your guys ' one point . tessa : yeah , i do n't think charades is your game . mariah : mnh - mnh . kyle : so , let 's switch to something else . how about truth or dare ? tessa : oh , i like it . mariah : yeah , i have n't played that game in , like , a million years . but it sounds fun . lola : who goes first ? kyle : you do . lola : ah . kyle : truth or dare ? lola : truth . kyle : okay . so ... you know all about my , um , recent brush with the law . so , why do n't you tell me the truth about a time when you did something wrong and regretted it . mariah : ooh . lola : uh ... let me think . ah , wait . i know . okay . so ... for the past few years , i have had a bunch of jobs , saving up for the day i could have my own business . um , so , i waited tables . i worked as a janitor . i collected tolls at a toll booth . that was a total snore . kyle : uh -- mariah : [ chuckles ] lola : and then i was hired at this used - car shop . mariah : around here ? lola : mnh - mnh . one - man show . middle of nowhere . i washed the cars and kept his books , and he did the sales part . uh , i was there for a month , and he still had n't paid me . kyle : what ? no way . lola : yeah . and when i accused him , he said i was fired . mariah : that sucks . that 's crazy . i 'm sorry . lola : i threatened to sue , and he just laughed in my face . said it would cost me more than what he owed me . [ sighs ] uh , i was really pissed , actually . tessa : what a creep . mariah : so what did you do ? lola : so , i thought about asking arturo to try to , you know , hash it out with this guy -- with his fists , you know what i 'm saying ? um , but i like fighting my own battles . so ... anyway . there was this old truck parked in the back of the lot . it did n't run , but if you looked at it -- you know , you 'd be like , `` what a piece of junk ! `` but when i looked at it [ sighs ] i saw so much potential , you know ? what a beautiful , beautiful thing it could become . kyle : your food truck . la vida lola . lola : do n't get ahead of my story . kyle : sorry . lola : i told him i would take the truck in payment for all of the hours i had worked . `` fine , `` he said . `` if you can drive this car out of this lot by sundown , you can have it . `` i made him shake on the deal , you know . and then he walked away and laughed at me like i was the dumbest female to ever live . tessa : well -- well , then -- then what happened ? kyle : [ chuckles ] lola : then i went to go get my tools , and went to every other vehicle he owned , basically cannibalized them for enough parts to start my truck . and i made him sign over the title , and i drove away before he realized what i had done . mariah : woman ! you rock ! tessa : you 're a badass ! kyle : that is one hell of a story . mariah : that is amazing . lola : thanks . kyle : month 's work for a few old car parts ? sounds fair enough to me . why do you regret it ? lola : oh , i don't . tessa : oh . kyle : okay . [ laughter ] your turn . lola : mariah , truth or dare ? mariah : truth . lola : same question . tell us about a time you broke the rules . mariah : i impersonated my dead twin sister to make somebody think that they were crazy , and i will regret it until my dying day . lola : wow . i do n't want to know the details on that . mariah : yeah , you don't . you don't . you really , really don't . it 's pretty much the worst thing that i have ever done . lola : mm . mariah : so , uh , my turn ? kyle : yeah . mariah : okay . tessa . truth or dare ? tessa : truth . mariah : same question . tessa : well , that 's easy . i stole your journal and plagiarized your most personal thoughts and wrote a hit song . good news is that mariah forgave me . bad news -- i was dropped from my label . lola : i am feeling a lot less of a badass now . kyle : i do n't think that 's a bad thing . mariah : no . tessa : yeah . mariah : definitely not . it , uh , must be nice to go through life without regretting the worst mistakes you 've ever made . lola : or i did something way worse than any of you , and i do n't plan to confess , because i plan to get away with it . oh , my god . look at your faces . i ca n't believe you guys fell for that . [ laughter ] mariah : wow . ugh . [ cellphone chimes ] tessa : okay . i see you . you know what ? i see you . [ mariah laughs ] lola : you know , i just have a slight poker face . i ca n't believe you have n't seen `` no country for old men . `` i have n't seen it . tessa : it 's so good . mariah : it 's good . lola : what is it about ? arnold schwarzenegger ? mariah : no . he 's not involved in it . tessa : you know what ? that would probably make it even more exciting . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . mariah : okay . does anybody want another drink ? lola : i 'll take a beer this time . [ doorbell rings ] mariah : tessa ? kyle : i got it . tessa : i 'm still working on this one . mariah : okay . [ grunts ] kyle : [ sighs ] summer . what 's up ? summer : um , i really need to talk to you . kyle : this is n't a good time . summer : yeah , for me , either . look , if there was anyone else i could go to -- there just -- there is n't , and i realized that i ca n't really do this alone . mariah : snowflake ! what in the world are you doing here ? summer : can i please just come in ? kyle : [ sighs ] tessa : oh . lola : [ chuckles ] mariah : [ clears throat ] summer : you 're , uh , having a party ? tessa : very observant . mariah : i 'll ask you again . what are you doing here ? kyle : summer 's going through something . she needs to talk . tessa : now ? mariah : you know what , she probably followed us here so she could spoil our night . kyle : mariah , lay off . she 's obviously upset . lola : and you 're the only one she can talk to ? kyle : [ sighs ] i would n't feel right about turning my back on a friend who 's obviously hurting . i 'm sure you can understand . lola : of course . you should do what you feel is right for ... your friend . mariah : kyle , summer has never been a friend to you , and if you do n't understand that by now , then i do n't -- lola : um , i think you , tessa , and i should go . uh , let them handle ... whatever this is . tessa : yeah , let 's go . kyle : hey . hey , hey . thanks . i 'm sorry about our evening . [ sighs ] summer : thank you for not slamming the door in my face . kyle : let me guess . billy . charlie : i just feel so guilty . i 'm having all this fun , and my mom is stuck in such a horrible place . shauna : charlie , don't . lily would n't want you being miserable all the time . devon : i second that . you have to live your life , man . you ca n't let the bad outweigh the good . charlie : yeah , i guess . devon : well , it 's very true . since hilary died , there 's been times when i 've done that . i thought that , if i was n't feeling anything other than anger and sadness , i was disrespecting her memory . then i realized , every time i 'm thinking about her , it just makes me feel bad . and hilary does n't want to be remembered like that . so i 've been working on letting go and focusing on the happy times , and what i loved about her , admired . when you talked about how she inspired you , it felt good to do it , right ? shauna : yeah . it sure did . devon : so , you know , i know the situation 's a little bit different 'cause of what 's going on with your mom , but the lesson still applies . she would not want you to be depressed and moping around and doing things like cutting class . she 'd want you to enjoy life , be happy . enjoy your senior year in school . i know she 's said these things to you . charlie : yeah . yeah , she has . devon : it 's time to take her at her word . nate : cane . cane : all right , listen . i told you i will deal with this , okay ? nate : fair enough . now , in case you get waylaid again -- cane : okay , which i won't . nate : look , i want to be able to calm lily 's fears . not showing up when you said you would , that is n't like you . cane : so , what 's your point ? what are you trying to say ? nate : my point is , i care about her , and i 'm trying to get a handle on how things happened . cane : all right , look . sometimes i go there , and i feel like i 'm making things harder for her , okay ? -i feel like i have to walk on eggshells and watch every single word i say while she just focuses on the other inmates and trying to make life easy for herself in there , okay ? and if you want me to be completely honest with you -- nate : yeah . cane : last time i went there , it was strained . nate : it must be hard , seeing how this is changing her . cane : [ scoffs ] nate : what you 're really saying is that the visits have gotten difficult for you . so when your meeting ran over , you took the day off . gave yourself an easy out without considering how it 's affecting her . cane : you have no idea what you 're talking about . nate : lily is my friend . cane : okay . nate : and after visiting her in that place earlier today , as difficult as this might have been for you , she is the one that has to go back into that cell and figure out how to get through another day . so if it seems like things are changing or she is developing an edge , that 's why . lily needs you as much as she ever has now . more . so you need to get over it and show up .

[ scene_break ] carter : i do n't know how rick will handle it , but i would n't be surprised if he breaks up with her . nicole : would you ? carter : i do n't know . maybe .

[ scene_break ] carter : i do n't know how rick will handle it , but i would n't be surprised if he breaks up with her . nicole : would you ? carter : i do n't know . maybe .

[ scene_break ] rick : i - i did n't mean to make you feel uncomfortable . did it feel like i was snooping ? maya : no , no , no , it did n't . you were concerned . it 's sweet . i - i just -- i did n't know how to answer . you know , how much does a man really want to know about all that ? rick : [ chuckles ] it 's true . i - i should 've known that nothing was wrong . but i could n't help but jump to the worst possible scenario . i 'm finally with the woman i want to share my life with , and ... you 're taking medication . i do n't know . all these scary thoughts just popped into my mind . maya : oh , i 'm so sorry , rick . that 's terrible . i - i should 've explained right away . it 's just ... you know , these pills are part of my daily routine , and i do n't even think twice about them . rick : and here i am , grilling you , and you -- you 're flustered . and i -- no , i 'm the one who should feel terrible . maya : hey . you can grill me whenever you want ... day or night . rick : yeah ? you like that ? maya : being interrogated by my man ? when i look into those big , sexy eyes ... i just melt . i am helpless when my strong ceo gives me the third degree . rick : mm - hmm .

[ chuckles ] rick : then what is it ? maya : you ... you talk about finding the woman you want to be with ... and worrying about losing me . rick , where do you see this going ? rick : what do you mean ? maya : i do n't want to push o - or make any assumptions .

thank you ! wyatt : actually , no . i did n't . hope told me all about it . liam : yeah , well , i asked steffy about it , and she 's not the one who sent -- do you see what he 's doing to us ? wyatt : i did n't send it . liam : oh , look , he 's trying to manipulate you . hope : he did not send the video , liam ! he did n't send it . but it does n't matter who did , because i needed to see it ! we could get through anything -- anything , liam -- but not this . not you reconnecting with steffy . not again ! liam : hope , there is no steffy in my life . and i 'm not going to accept this . that ring belongs on your finger , and we deserve to be married . no more exceptions . no more waiting . i 'm not gon na let him or anyone get between us ! | hope takes the ring that wyatt just took off of her finger and slips it in her pocket . she looks up at wyatt and he leans down and kisses her . he tells her there is only her . there will never be anyone else in his life .. no steffy .. just her . liam pleads with brooke that she must know where hope is so just please tell him . brooke points out to him that he took the time to make the video for steffy . that was not on impulse ; that took time and planning . he says it really was n't . the whole point was that it was the final goodbye to steffy . brooke replies that he knew it would hurt hope so she does n't see why he did it . he counters with that hope is his future and steffy is his past , so if brooke will just tell him where hope is they can work this out . he says that hope is making way too much of this video and now so is brooke . she says he had to know that it would have a major impact on steffy . liam says but at least she knows now that their marriage meant something . brooke retorts that she did n't need her own personal tribute to know that . liam chastises her by saying she is wrong . look at all the terrible things that steffy went through with the loss of the baby and all so she needed this video to prove that their marriage was real and that he did care for her . once again he begs brooke to tell him where hope is . after all , she still has his engagement ring on her finger . hope holds up the ring and wyatt tells her that he will get her another .. one that does n't have a lot of baggage attached to it . this feels so right . he says this time she is starting a new life with someone who loves only her . bill and katie continue their little debate on who should be running the company . she says she takes full responsibility of the company with new leadership . he mocks that if the board meeting was any indication of her leadership , then she says he was treating her with zero respect and bullying her and she is not going to take that from him anymore . he tells her she does not have the experience and despite what she thinks , he does still care about her and does n't want to see her and the company go thru what is probably gon na happen . she says she does want him there . she needs him . he says there is n't any way that would work . her method of working is different than hers . he says he 'd have to run the company . she says then it is hers to run . he says good luck and she is going to need a lot of it . dani brings little will in to see katie . she tells hr that she held her own today at the meeting and she is very proud of her . katie says that seems to be her life now , will and running the company but at least she is no longer in the perpetual shadow of the great bill spencer . and she realizes now just how much she has lost . brooke tells liam that she thinks he really just needs to step back and leave hope alone for a bit and let her make some decisions . liam does n't think she needs to make any decisions . brooke says yes she does ; like who she is going to spend the rest of her life with . liam is incensed and says no . that has been settled . it is with him . | <s>[INST] [ birds chirping ] wyatt : no one but you . there will never be another in my life . no steffy . no one but you . liam : where is she , brooke ?

paul : okay , so , we have a name at the end of the money trail . but it just raises more questions . dylan : yeah . with our lab tech dead , we 're just gon na have to go straight to the source for the answers . paul : we were so certain it was victor newman . now that we know that it is n't , we 're gon na have to regroup and figure out what answers we need to conclude this investigation . dylan : i mean , as far as i 'm concerned , there 's only one question that we need answered . why was hilary hamilton paying this guy off ? ashley : how could hilary possibly believe that we 're gon na get fda approval in the next few months ? thank you . two of our patients have relapsed , neville . dr. neville : [ sighs ] i know . ashley : this drug is farther away than ever from doing what it 's supposed to do . and she 's telling the world that it 's gon na be on the market by the fall . what the hell is she thinking ? dr. neville : personal glory ? what she 's gon na at the press conference ? the cover of vanity fair ? ashley : it 's always about her ego . always . and she 's determined to -- to push this drug trial . and there 's people 's lives at stake . dr. neville : [ sighs ] ashley : you know what we have to do ? we have to put out a new press release . we have to say that due to unforeseen problems with the drug testing , this drug will not be on the market by fall . dr. neville : without consulting hilary ? ashley : she never consults us . i 'm supposed to be the c.e.o . she never consults me . ever . dr. neville : [ sighs ] with all due respect , we have more immediate concerns than a press release . two of our patients are suffering from severe side effects . and there is going to be a third . ashley : hilary . dr. neville : mm . ashley : are you sure of that ? dr. neville : well , vitals are stable , her memory is n't impaired . but that tremor is a clear indication . not that she 'd listen to me . ashley : because she thinks that you 're tricking her . dr. neville : we have to get her to see the truth . make it about her . make her realize that her life is in danger . maybe that will get it through her head -- the drug is n't ready . wo n't be without a lot more testing . we might be saving her life . ashley : god knows i do n't like her very much , but i do n't want to see her slip back into a coma . dr. neville : i almost believe you . ashley : i mean it . and you 're right . maybe we have to convince her what 's at stake , right ? she wo n't be so stupid . dr. neville : give it a go .

'cause , i mean , you 're so busy with the foundation , or pushing dr. neville 's protocol for its fda approval . and when you 're not doing that , you 're climbing and clawing your way up the , uh -- what , the social ladder here in genoa city . when 's the last time you actually cared about the club ? why do you care ? jack : thanks for agreeing to meet me here . we still have some foundation business to finish up , but it 's a beautiful evening . i figured i should spend part of it with my beautiful wife . phyllis : yeah . i need a break . and some drinks . luca santori 's living with my daughter . i just ... want to snap his neck . jack : you did talk to nick , though , right ? phyllis : yeah . yeah , we got a plan to get luca gone . i 'm gon na kill that peacock with kindness . jack : interesting approach . phyllis : yeah , what i really want to do is kill him and put him on a platter , but ... sorry . jack : thank goodness for nick 's calming influence , huh ? phyllis : and yours . so , now i am gon na take a deep breath , i 'm gon na think happy thoughts , and i 'm gon na focus on my husband . jack : you really think you can do that ? phyllis : yeah . what am i doing right now ? jack : um , you 're drawing an imaginary circle . phyllis : i 'm making a bubble . and from this minute on , it 's just you and me . nothing can touch us .

'cause you 've proven over and over that the only person you care about protecting is yourself . hilary : can you please crawl out of your small minds and realize that i 'm just trying to help ? like it or not , we are family . lily : oh , i choose to not like it . hilary : well , this entire incident can land us all on the front page of a tabloid . `` guest who checks out permanently : suicide at the athletic club . `` how about that one ? hm ? lily : ooh , i have one . what about `` the sister - in - law from hell gets murdered at the athletic club `` ? cane : shh . do n't , darling . lily : look , this is a tragedy , and i 'm handling it appropriately . so please , go torture somebody else . hilary : reactive instead of proactive . see , that 's your problem . that 's what shows that you are out of your depth . well , thank god i know how to manage a crisis . watch . maybe you 'll learn something . lily : you know , this is ridiculous . i 'm calling devon . hilary : well , he 's out of town . i 'm calling the shots . with his blessing , of course . lily : oh , like hell you will . paul : okay , so , alan james did n't just work for the medical examiner . get a load of this . dylan : what ? paul : he was also on the drug trial for ashley and neville 's research project . dylan : hmm . paul : so , hilary was c.e.o . of that for a while , too . dylan : yeah , no , no , she 's still pretty involved . she just made an announcement that , uh , neville 's new treatment 's gon na be on the market in a few months . paul : a few months ? does n't it take years to get things through the fda ? dylan : i 'm sure if it 's about getting to market and making a lot of money , there are ways ... to speed up the process . paul : so , are you thinking what i 'm thinking ? dylan : so , hilary paid james ... paul : to manipulate the test results . dylan : ... because she wanted to cut corners and push this approval through . paul : okay . that sounds like motive to me . dr. neville : i ca n't believe she hung up on me . ashley : it 's not really that surprising , though , is it ? dr. neville : it 's not a joke . it 's a matter of life or death . if the drug does n't work , there 's no amount of spin that 's going to change that . how could she simply refuse to see it ? ashley : because it does n't work for her , and she thinks she 's infallible . the rest of the world just has to fall into line . dr. neville : she 's not immortal . and she ca n't just remain in denial about this . [ sighs ] even if she does have the world 's most challenging personality , i - i admit it , i 'm worried about her . ashley : i hate to mention this . what if the face of our drug ends up in the hospital ? dr. neville : no . no , it 's not about reputation . or public perception . she was my patient . it 's my treatment , my protocol . i brought her back to life . i have a responsibility to help her now . same responsibility i have to all of my patients . ashley : that 's why i believe in you . because of your conviction . that saved my life , you know . dr. neville : no , my dear ms. abbott . that was a -- that was a team effort . because you knew the risks . you had your doubts . you were in pain . but you kept fighting . now , if it was n't for your courage , this drug would n't have any kind of a future . although , admittedly , right now i 'm not sure what that is . ashley : stop . this drug is gon na save lives . i know it will . have you had any luck refining the formula ? dr. neville : no , no . i 'm still waiting on the latest chem analysis , the protein binding . the only theory i have is that , unlike you , hilary and the other two were comatose . they were the victims of a traumatic injury , and that somehow the damaged tissue affects the way the medication works on a cellular level . i do n't know . until i get the tests back , i still have more questions than i do answers . ashley : well , not for long , knowing you . dr. neville : [ sighs ] well , i 'd better come up with something , and quickly , or hilary 's gon na suffer the same fate as the other two . ashley : well , then get to the lab , right ? go on . get back to work . i 'm gon na go talk to hilary , all right ? she ca n't keep running from the truth forever . phyllis : well , you two look like you 're having fun . bethany : beats falling off a motorcycle , does n't it ? billy : oh , yeah . she 's a laugh riot . here you go . bethany : one of the things he loves about me . billy : i certainly do . bethany : well , what 's up with you guys ? billy : you know what , we should just let them enjoy their evening . how about it ? bethany : well , i mean , we 're just getting to know each other . we should enjoy it together . jack : how are you feeling ? billy : uh , i 'm fine . fine . bumps and bruises . jack : good . good . i mean , could be a whole lot worse . and you certainly look no worse for the wear . bethany : like it never happened . well , this is a little awkward . but i know what can make it less awkward . mojitos . how about a round of drinks ? billy : jack does n't drink . bethany : oh . uh , sorry . jack : no , no . no need to be . bethany : no , i mean i really am . that would really suck , you know ? a life without mojitos ? margies ? champagne ? listen to me . i 'm gon na remove my foot from my mouth . jack : you know what , you were so good at seeing that my brother got medical attention , the least i can do is buy you a mojito . bethany : [ sighs ] you are so cute . all right , well , i 'm gon na go get changed , and i will be back in a sec . billy : all right . jack : well , she 's certainly a spirited gal . billy : we do n't have to do this . jack : no , g -- i would like to try to do this , as you and i have n't exactly been seeing eye to eye lately . billy : well , that 's because i 'm living the life that i want to live , and you do n't approve of that . i would say that we should be used to this by now . jack : you 're my brother , and i love you , and we 've experienced a lot together . i 'd like to think we could put our differences aside for one evening . is that too much to ask for ? i 'll get us a table . lily : you will not tell me how to do my job . hilary : i think i can tell you whatever i want . and you 're gon na have to accept it or face the consequences . lily : you know , i am sick of you shoving your threats down our throats . you do n't control our lives . cane : okay , listen . we all want what is best for this club , so how about we just try and settle our differences and work together ? hilary : i could n't have said it better myself . thank you for understanding that we need to be civil . paul : good evening . can we have a moment of your time ? cane : hey , chief . what can we do for you ? lily : is this about the guest who committed suicide ? dylan : that 's correct . lily : okay , well , follow me to my office . paul : actually , we are , um , here to talk to hilary . bethany : so , was it love at first sight ? jack : oh , all that fun and passion and humor . how could i not fall hard ? phyllis : head over heels . bethany : and you two have been together ever since ? jack : well , we 've had our struggles , like other couples , but we 've always come back , right ? we come back stronger and even more in love . phyllis : yep , we have . bethany : oh , that is so romantic ! is n't it ? billy : like a fairy tale . bethany : you are a lucky woman . to have a man that loves you that much , something so real . if i were you , i would hold on tight to all that yummy goodness . phyllis : well , that 's what i 'm gon na do . jack : no , i 'm the lucky one , being married to phyllis . bethany : oh ! poor billy . all this talk about love and marriage . do n't worry , i 'm not that girl . i am totally fine with no strings attached , no expectations . fine with being the rebound chick . jack : wait , that 's how you see yourself ? bethany : oh , no , i 'm totally cool with it . the only reason billy is dating me is because he 's trying to get over the love of his life . billy : [ sighs ] bethany : what -- what 's her name again ? billy : victoria . bethany : yep , that 's it . victoria . billy : uh , we 're gon na get going , jack . thank you very much for the drinks . bethany : oh , yeah . you know what , we -- mmm . we have a big night planned . very big . huge . billy : shall we ? bethany : yeah . all right . well , you know what , we really should do this again sometime . i - i had a blast . jack : wow . is it me , or is there something off about that girl ? lily : you know , maybe the man did n't commit suicide . maybe hilary murdered him because he did n't give her the proper respect . cane : not funny . lily : look , all i 'm saying is that she 's being questioned by the police about a dead man . there must be some sort of connection . is it so horrible that i hope she lands behind bars ? cane : i do n't know . maybe they 're gathering information . like 'cause james was in the medical field , so maybe they think that hilary knew him . lily : well , i like my version better . hilary , guilty as hell and finally getting caught . cane : well , you really hope she gets into trouble ? lily : i mean , think about it . if she goes to prison , then her days of social climbing and power plays are over . she 'll finally be out of our lives . cane : and you seem to forget that if hilary is guilty of something , she will take us down with her and enjoy every single second of it . paul : but i understand the deceased worked for you . hilary : he was part of an outsourced lab team that worked specifically on the drug trial . which i did oversee . dylan : did you have personal contact with him ? hilary : i do n't really have personal contact with any of the consulting personnel . paul : oh . hilary : i knew him by name . why ? what 's this about ? paul : several large deposits in his bank account were traced back to you . hilary : well , that 's impossible . dylan : uh , unless it was in exchange for falsifying reports to get that fda approval as fast as possible . hilary : i would n't do anything to jeopardize the effectiveness of this drug . paul : then how do you explain the large deposits into his account ? hilary : it 's simple . i do the payroll for all of the lab employees . i get a report . it tells me the weekly salaries and the bonuses to distribute . dylan : well , he must have been an outstanding employee , because the payout was significant . hilary : yes , the bonuses can be generous . but i - i did n't do anything wrong . you need to believe me . this is n't business as usual for me . dr. neville -- i was a patient of his . i 'm alive because ... of him . paul : what ? what is it ? hilary : dr. neville , he deals with all of the testing procedures . he handles all of the medical staff . he 's the one that tells me how much to pay each employee . i think that dr. neville is the person that you need to speak to about possible payoffs . ashley : this looks serious . paul : actually , it is . we are , uh , looking for dr. neville . do you have any idea where he is ? ashley : yeah , he 's at the hospital checking on some test results . paul : okay . thank you . ashley : you 're welcome . paul : we 'll be in touch . ashley : good to see you . paul : good to see you , too . bye . cane : hey . lily : well , i guess hilary 's not in trouble after all . cane : [ sighs ] lily : that 's too bad . ashley : what 's going on ? hilary : would you believe that a guest committed suicide in one of the suites ? ashley : okay , that 's horrific . but why were dylan and paul asking you about a payoff ? hilary : well , it turns out that he was one of the lab techs on our drug trial , and they were accusing me of paying him off to alter some lab results . ashley : you did it , did n't you ? that 's why you were so certain we were gon na get approval so quickly . hilary : people need this drug , okay ? i did what i had to . ashley : and then what did you do after that ? did you tell the police that neville was responsible ? that he authorized those payments ? hilary : uh , well -- ashley : you ungrateful bitch . he 's trying to save your life even as you 're trying to destroy him . hilary : i do n't need saving . and there 's a bigger picture here . ashley : do you understand that there have been two patients that have relapsed , and you 're going to be the third ? neville told me about the tremor in your hand , hilary . hilary : you know what , that 's nothing . okay ? neville is -- he 's upset about the press release , and he 's just trying to scare me into postponing the launch . ashley : okay , shut up , and you listen to me very , very closely . he 's not playing you right now . that tremor is the very first sign that you are absolutely relapsing . and unless neville finds some kind of a solution very quickly , there 's no guarantee you 're gon na come out of it this time . you sending him to jail , you 're making yourself a dead woman . neville , you need to leave the lab right now . i know . bethany : [ laughing ] how much fun was that ? i mean , you are hot , but your brother is so dashing and old - school . so handsome . th - there was phyllis , you on one side , jack on the other -- billy : what the hell do you think you 're doing ? jack : i do n't know what i expected bethany to be , but that was n't it . phyllis : yeah . she 's definitely unfiltered . at least she knows what she wants -- or does n't want . jack : a real relationship with billy ? phyllis : i do n't know about that . i mean , she -- i think she 's got it figured out pretty well , with all the fireworks , bells , and whistles . i mean , she knows it ca n't last . it 's a fling . she 's having fun with it . jack : i do n't know . i do n't think it was that easy . she was acting really , really hard to be nonchalant . phyllis : really . you think she 's that bright , to throw reverse psychology at billy ? jack : why not ? play the hard - to - get , catch - me - if - you - can party girl ... phyllis : then she lets him catch her ... jack : and become the next mrs. billy abbott . phyllis : i do n't know . that plan might require more brain cells than the girl has . jack : oh , no , no , no . bethany 's as smart as they come , and she 's got billy 's number . you know he loves a challenge . and what 's more exciting than what you ca n't have ? phyllis : please . not everybody wants to marry abbotts . you 're way too handsome , and too full of yourselves . jack : you wanted to marry me . phyllis : best thing i ever did . all that yummy goodness . jack : [ laughs ] okay , hold that thought . listen , i got to find hilary before it 's too late to talk this foundation business , okay ? phyllis : okay . hey , you tell her to keep her claws to herself , okay ? jack : the only claws i want are yours . phyllis : then i 'll let you go . but only if you make it up to me later . jack : count on it . bethany : i was having fun . billy : you could have blown us out of the water . bethany : would you lighten up ? you 're a lot hotter when you 're not all freaked out . billy : hey , this is not a game , okay ? bethany : would you stop worrying ? listen , i know what i 'm supposed to do , and i 'm doing it . maybe i went a little too far with the `` love of your life `` thing . billy : yeah , you think ? what you pulled back there , okay , that -- that is not part of the plan . bethany : so i went a little off - script . okay , jack did n't suspect a thing . and phyllis , that woman is a total pro . not even a twitch . but for a poker player , you revealed everything . it was all right here . if your brother had looked at you a little too long , it would have been game over . so instead of shredding me , you need to worry about yourself . if anyone is going to give this away , it 's you . [ woman laughing ] billy : you ca n't make me stop feeling what i 'm feeling . you ca n't make me think that we do n't belong together . phyllis : how is it gon na work ? we can not work . billy : why not ? because of jack ? phyllis : yes . billy : phyllis , i love my brother , but what you have is an illusion . it 's a memory of what used to exist . what we have , what we -- what we could be is real . if you would just allow it to be , it would be real . i know it . and you know it . jack : everything all right ? phyllis : yeah . just missed you . that 's all . jack : well , we were just in bed together a couple hours ago . phyllis : i know . that was before . jack : before what ? phyllis : before that . jack : is it just me , or does this feel like a whole new beginning for us ? phyllis : forget the past . just here in the now . it 's just us , okay ? it 's just us . billy : i know you 're trying to shore up your marriage . how 's that working out for you ? phyllis : you really want to know the answer to that question ? billy : i should tell you to go back there and be with your man . you know , smile the smile , walk the walk . but i 'm not gon na do that . you want to know why ? because ... because i know what you really need . paul : okay . dylan : [ sighs ] paul : so , you know , nobody saw neville at the hospital . it makes me wonder if he was ever there . dylan : what , you think ashley sent us on a wild - goose chase ? paul : or it was neville 's smokescreen so he could take off . dylan : well , he did turn his cell phone off so we ca n't track his location . paul : right . even if ashley thinks he 's innocent , his disappearance certainly gives credence to hilary 's story . dylan : so , do you think dr. neville paid that lab tech off to push the approval through ? paul : okay . well , i 'm thinking -- i - i -- i 'm thinking that ... the lab tech winds up dead . neville feels the walls closing in , so he runs . dylan : well , that would n't be the first time , right ? paul : hilary 's kidnapping , right ? you go to his hotel room looking for her . he panics , drugs you , and takes off . dylan : and it seems like he may have panicked again . paul : [ sighs ] yeah . i want an apb on dr. simon neville . dr. neville : dead ? ! oh , that 's it . that -- that -- this is the end . this is the end . [ chuckles ] i 'm sorry . my work , our research , everything . ashley : it is not the end . we 've been through so much before . we 're gon na get through this , too . dr. neville : no , no , no . you do n't understand . hilary 's too powerful . she 's got all the cards . ashley : she 's not too powerful . we 've got the truth on our side . dr. neville : since when has that ever been enough ? ashley : listen , snap out of it , okay ? now just calm down . hilary has gone too far . a man has died . now , we go to the police , we tell them it was not you that paid that person off , it was her . it was hilary . dr. neville : ashley , it 's not that simple . ashley : yes , it is . now , listen to me . devon 's power and his money can not protect hilary anymore . she goes away . you have all the time in the world . you can push this launch date until the drug is ready . and you can realize this dream of yours . okay ? and we 're gon na do this . come on . we 're going to the police . dr. neville : i ca n't turn hilary in . ashley : why not ? jack : oh , just the woman i 'm looking for . hilary : oh . hey , jack . uh , what can i do for you ? jack : well , i just wanted to go over a couple of bullet points for that meeting we have with the city tomorrow . hilary : uh , yeah . absolutely . um ... i was just going over a time line for the opening of the new treatment center . and i spoke to the mayor 's office about participating in a ribbon - cutting ceremony as soon as we have a firm date . jack : you are a wonder . and not just with this . you handled that whole dedication ceremony so beautifully . i know jill can be overbearing . hilary : eh ... jack : you did n't take the bait . you stayed cool , stayed focused on the foundation . and i want you to know i really appreciate that . hilary : well , i do this all from my heart , jack . i do n't need a thank you , but it 's really -- it 's nice to hear . lily : look at her . she 's practically drooling on him . it 's disgusting . cane : just let this go . lily : no , someone needs to open his eyes . cane : okay , it 's not your responsibility , okay , 'cause nothing good is gon na come of this -- lily . lily ! lily : excuse me . hilary : lily , this is not a good time . lily : how can you not see what she is ? billy : well , sorry if my performance was n't up to par for you . bethany : i bet you do n't get to say that very often . billy : [ sighs ] this plan is ridiculous . bethany : are you kidding ? it 's brilliant . the way phyllis covered your tracks for your secret motorcycle ride gone wrong ? she disappears , throws me into your arms -- it 's genius . billy : yeah . yeah , you 're right . she 's really good at pushing me away . bethany : that 's only because she wants you so badly . [ door slams ] phyllis : what do you think you were doing back there ? bethany : oh , billy just asked me the exact same thing . you two really are quite the pair . phyllis : yeah , you could have ruined everything . bethany : am i seriously having this conversation again ? relax . phyllis : here . bethany : uh , what 's this , a bonus ? phyllis : it 's for you to shut up and go away . bethany : okay . well , you know where to find me when you need me . have fun ! phyllis : we have a problem . billy : yeah , we do . and you 're making it worse . billy : you made a mistake bringing bethany into this . phyllis : i did n't have a choice . you want me to tell everybody that i was on the back of your motorcycle when i should have been at jack 's big foundation party ? billy : you said that she could be handled , okay ? that girl is a wild card . phyllis : she is better than the truth . billy : what if she decides that she does n't want to play anymore ? what if she decides she wants more money ? she can go to jack at any point . so what do we do then ? phyllis : she 's not the type . billy : no ? come on . you do n't know anything about her . phyllis : she wants the cash . she does n't want the trouble . billy : okay . what are you really doing here ? phyllis : someone had to talk some sense into that girl . billy : no , no , no . this has nothing to do about the girl . phyllis : do n't go looking for something where it 's not . billy : i saw your face . when bethany kissed me . phyllis : i was n't jealous . billy : you were jealous . phyllis : i was n't . we have to rethink this . this is n't working . billy : yeah , it 's not working because we ca n't keep pretending anymore . because we ca n't stay the hell away from each other . ashley : neville , after everything that hilary has put you through , this is your chance . it 's our chance for you to reclaim your dream . come on ! the good guys win . dr. neville : i may not be one of the good guys . ashley : what are you talking about ? dr. neville : hilary and i have a complicated history . ashley : how complicated can it be ? you saved her life . dr. neville : but the circumstances are n't [ sighs ] necessarily what you were led to believe . ashley : you told me that an anonymous donor paid you to treat her . you did n't do anything wrong , neville . dr. neville : except for lying to the authorities . and you . i was fully aware of the kidnapper 's identity . ashley : you knew ? dr. neville : and hilary knows it , too . it 's the big stick she 's been using to keep me in line . ashley : she 's blackmailing you ? dr. neville : reminded me just the other day of how unfortunate it would be if the truth came out . [ stammers ] to say nothing of losing my medical license . a very quick trip from the lab to a jail cell . ashley : wait a second . i would expect hilary to lie to me , but not you . dr. neville : a - ashley -- ashley : not you , neville . we shared everything . we worked side by side for months -- dr. neville : i 'm sorry -- ashley : you 're sorry ? that 's not good enough . i thought i had to protect the project from hilary , but it was you and your lie . that 's the real threat here . this entire thing could implode , and you know all along , and you did n't tell me ? ! well , say something now ! start talking ! i wan to hear everything . dr. neville : the less you know , the better . ashley : oh , you 're gon na protect me ? are you serious ? do you realize that all the work we 've done could be shot to hell ? well , i 'm not gon na let that happen . so you 'd better start talking , because god only knows how soon it will be before the cops track you down . paul : hold on . neville 's car 's been sighted . where is it ? okay . good work . thanks . we have a location . dylan : paul , please , let me take care of neville . just tell me where he is . jack : we can pick this up in the morning , okay ? hilary : no , you know what , we can go right up to my suite . lily : oh , because devon 's out of town ? that 's perfect . hilary : how dare you ? cane : lily . lily . lily : you know she does n't care about your foundation , right ? jack : well , there you are wrong . she has already committed lots of time and energy to our cause . lily : yeah , all of those tireless efforts are for one thing . hilary : you really need to back off . lily : it 's for you . you 're the cause , to get on your good side . cane : okay , let 's not do this here . lily : i mean , how can you be so smart and not see it ? she 's hedging her bets just in case devon wises up and throws her out on the street . hilary : that 's ridiculous . lily : she needs some wallet to bankroll the lifestyle that she 's become accustomed to . buy her way into high society . hilary : obviously my sister - in - law has lost her mind . i love my husband , and i 'm offended that you would disparage our relationship -- lily : oh , and now she 's using big words to make herself sound classy . hilary : lily , you 're embarrassing yourself . lily : no , you 're the embarrassment . you have torn this family apart . hilary : you know what , you better be careful , because you 're gon na do that all on your own . cane : all right , listen . i do n't think our family issues need to be , uh , in public , okay , and jack does n't have to be drawn into this . so can we just ... ? jack : i 'll let you work this out on your own . cane : thank you , jack . lily : you know she 's the reason that neil is drinking again , right ? it 's her fault . hilary : i did n't make neil an alcoholic . and like he said , there is always a potential for relapse . but i am -- i am there for him just like everyone else . lily : no , it is your fault . you are responsible . with all of your lies and your games , all -- jack : h - hilary ? hilary ? hilary ! dr. neville : my focus was saving hilary 's life . whatever i had to agree to do to make that happen , i did . ashley : oh , really ? even protecting a kidnapper who put devon and his family through hell ? dr. neville : [ sighs ] the person responsible never meant to harm hilary . ashley : oh , please . no . dr. neville : she was injured , she was comatose . getting in contact with me was his best hope of saving her life . ashley : you do n't get to do this . you do not get to turn this monster into a saint . now help me out , here . if you know the truth and hilary knows the truth , then what 's the problem ? you tell the cops , the blackmail goes away . dr. neville : no . there are other people involved . i do n't want to see them hurt . ashley : oh , there 's other people involved . of course there are . dr. neville : i 'm sorry . i never meant to disappoint you . that was the last thing i ever wanted . ashley : so now what ? you do n't want to admit the truth because you do n't want to turn on hilary ? how are you gon na get yourself out of this mess ?

'cause you 've proven over and over that the only person you care about protecting is yourself . hilary : can you please crawl out of your small minds and realize that i 'm just trying to help ? like it or not , we are family . lily : oh , i choose to not like it . hilary : well , this entire incident can land us all on the front page of a tabloid . `` guest who checks out permanently : suicide at the athletic club . `` how about that one ? hm ? lily : ooh , i have one . what about `` the sister - in - law from hell gets murdered at the athletic club `` ? cane : shh . do n't , darling . lily : look , this is a tragedy , and i 'm handling it appropriately . so please , go torture somebody else . hilary : reactive instead of proactive . see , that 's your problem . that 's what shows that you are out of your depth . well , thank god i know how to manage a crisis . watch . maybe you 'll learn something . lily : you know , this is ridiculous . i 'm calling devon . hilary : well , he 's out of town . i 'm calling the shots . with his blessing , of course . lily : oh , like hell you will . paul : okay , so , alan james did n't just work for the medical examiner . get a load of this . dylan : what ? paul : he was also on the drug trial for ashley and neville 's research project . dylan : hmm . paul : so , hilary was c.e.o . of that for a while , too . dylan : yeah , no , no , she 's still pretty involved . she just made an announcement that , uh , neville 's new treatment 's gon na be on the market in a few months . paul : a few months ? does n't it take years to get things through the fda ? dylan : i 'm sure if it 's about getting to market and making a lot of money , there are ways ... to speed up the process . paul : so , are you thinking what i 'm thinking ? dylan : so , hilary paid james ... paul : to manipulate the test results . dylan : ... because she wanted to cut corners and push this approval through . paul : okay . that sounds like motive to me . dr. neville : i ca n't believe she hung up on me . ashley : it 's not really that surprising , though , is it ? dr. neville : it 's not a joke . it 's a matter of life or death . if the drug does n't work , there 's no amount of spin that 's going to change that . how could she simply refuse to see it ? ashley : because it does n't work for her , and she thinks she 's infallible . the rest of the world just has to fall into line . dr. neville : she 's not immortal . and she ca n't just remain in denial about this . [ sighs ] even if she does have the world 's most challenging personality , i - i admit it , i 'm worried about her . ashley : i hate to mention this . what if the face of our drug ends up in the hospital ? dr. neville : no . no , it 's not about reputation . or public perception . she was my patient . it 's my treatment , my protocol . i brought her back to life . i have a responsibility to help her now . same responsibility i have to all of my patients . ashley : that 's why i believe in you . because of your conviction . that saved my life , you know . dr. neville : no , my dear ms. abbott . that was a -- that was a team effort . because you knew the risks . you had your doubts . you were in pain . but you kept fighting . now , if it was n't for your courage , this drug would n't have any kind of a future . although , admittedly , right now i 'm not sure what that is . ashley : stop . this drug is gon na save lives . i know it will . have you had any luck refining the formula ? dr. neville : no , no . i 'm still waiting on the latest chem analysis , the protein binding . the only theory i have is that , unlike you , hilary and the other two were comatose . they were the victims of a traumatic injury , and that somehow the damaged tissue affects the way the medication works on a cellular level . i do n't know . until i get the tests back , i still have more questions than i do answers . ashley : well , not for long , knowing you . dr. neville : [ sighs ] well , i 'd better come up with something , and quickly , or hilary 's gon na suffer the same fate as the other two . ashley : well , then get to the lab , right ?

billy : jack does n't drink . bethany : oh . uh , sorry . jack : no , no . no need to be . bethany : no , i mean i really am . that would really suck , you know ? a life without mojitos ? margies ? champagne ? listen to me . i 'm gon na remove my foot from my mouth . jack : you know what , you were so good at seeing that my brother got medical attention , the least i can do is buy you a mojito . bethany : [ sighs ] you are so cute . all right , well , i 'm gon na go get changed , and i will be back in a sec . billy : all right . jack : well , she 's certainly a spirited gal . billy : we do n't have to do this . jack : no , g -- i would like to try to do this , as you and i have n't exactly been seeing eye to eye lately . billy : well , that 's because i 'm living the life that i want to live , and you do n't approve of that . i would say that we should be used to this by now . jack : you 're my brother , and i love you , and we 've experienced a lot together . i 'd like to think we could put our differences aside for one evening . is that too much to ask for ?

we come back stronger and even more in love . phyllis : yep , we have . bethany : oh , that is so romantic ! is n't it ? billy : like a fairy tale . bethany : you are a lucky woman . to have a man that loves you that much , something so real . if i were you , i would hold on tight to all that yummy goodness . phyllis : well , that 's what i 'm gon na do . jack : no , i 'm the lucky one , being married to phyllis . bethany : oh ! poor billy . all this talk about love and marriage . do n't worry , i 'm not that girl . i am totally fine with no strings attached , no expectations . fine with being the rebound chick . jack : wait , that 's how you see yourself ? bethany : oh , no , i 'm totally cool with it . the only reason billy is dating me is because he 's trying to get over the love of his life . billy : [ sighs ] bethany : what -- what 's her name again ?

bethany : yeah . all right . well , you know what , we really should do this again sometime . i - i had a blast . jack : wow . is it me , or is there something off about that girl ? lily : you know , maybe the man did n't commit suicide . maybe hilary murdered him because he did n't give her the proper respect . cane : not funny . lily : look , all i 'm saying is that she 's being questioned by the police about a dead man . there must be some sort of connection . is it so horrible that i hope she lands behind bars ? cane : i do n't know . maybe they 're gathering information . like 'cause james was in the medical field , so maybe they think that hilary knew him . lily : well , i like my version better . hilary , guilty as hell and finally getting caught . cane : well , you really hope she gets into trouble ? lily : i mean , think about it . if she goes to prison , then her days of social climbing and power plays are over . she 'll finally be out of our lives . cane : and you seem to forget that if hilary is guilty of something , she will take us down with her and enjoy every single second of it . paul : but i understand the deceased worked for you . hilary : he was part of an outsourced lab team that worked specifically on the drug trial . which i did oversee . dylan : did you have personal contact with him ? hilary : i do n't really have personal contact with any of the consulting personnel . paul : oh . hilary : i knew him by name . why ? what 's this about ? paul : several large deposits in his bank account were traced back to you . hilary : well , that 's impossible . dylan : uh , unless it was in exchange for falsifying reports to get that fda approval as fast as possible . hilary : i would n't do anything to jeopardize the effectiveness of this drug . paul : then how do you explain the large deposits into his account ? hilary : it 's simple . i do the payroll for all of the lab employees . i get a report . it tells me the weekly salaries and the bonuses to distribute . dylan : well , he must have been an outstanding employee , because the payout was significant . hilary : yes , the bonuses can be generous . but i - i did n't do anything wrong . you need to believe me . this is n't business as usual for me . dr. neville -- i was a patient of his . i 'm alive because ... of him . paul : what ? what is it ? hilary : dr. neville , he deals with all of the testing procedures . he handles all of the medical staff . he 's the one that tells me how much to pay each employee . i think that dr. neville is the person that you need to speak to about possible payoffs . ashley : this looks serious . paul : actually , it is . we are , uh , looking for dr. neville . do you have any idea where he is ? ashley : yeah , he 's at the hospital checking on some test results . paul : okay . thank you . ashley : you 're welcome . paul : we 'll be in touch . ashley : good to see you . paul : good to see you , too . bye . cane : hey . lily : well , i guess hilary 's not in trouble after all . cane : [ sighs ] lily : that 's too bad . ashley : what 's going on ? hilary : would you believe that a guest committed suicide in one of the suites ? ashley : okay , that 's horrific . but why were dylan and paul asking you about a payoff ? hilary : well , it turns out that he was one of the lab techs on our drug trial , and they were accusing me of paying him off to alter some lab results . ashley : you did it , did n't you ? that 's why you were so certain we were gon na get approval so quickly . hilary : people need this drug , okay ? i did what i had to . ashley : and then what did you do after that ? did you tell the police that neville was responsible ? that he authorized those payments ? hilary : uh , well -- ashley : you ungrateful bitch . he 's trying to save your life even as you 're trying to destroy him . hilary : i do n't need saving . and there 's a bigger picture here . ashley : do you understand that there have been two patients that have relapsed , and you 're going to be the third ? neville told me about the tremor in your hand , hilary . hilary : you know what , that 's nothing . okay ? neville is -- he 's upset about the press release , and he 's just trying to scare me into postponing the launch . ashley : okay , shut up , and you listen to me very , very closely . he 's not playing you right now . that tremor is the very first sign that you are absolutely relapsing . and unless neville finds some kind of a solution very quickly , there 's no guarantee you 're gon na come out of it this time . you sending him to jail , you 're making yourself a dead woman . neville , you need to leave the lab right now . i know . bethany : [ laughing ] how much fun was that ? i mean , you are hot , but your brother is so dashing and old - school . so handsome . th - there was phyllis , you on one side , jack on the other -- billy : what the hell do you think you 're doing ? jack : i do n't know what i expected bethany to be , but that was n't it . phyllis : yeah . she 's definitely unfiltered . at least she knows what she wants -- or does n't want . jack : a real relationship with billy ? phyllis : i do n't know about that . i mean , she -- i think she 's got it figured out pretty well , with all the fireworks , bells , and whistles . i mean , she knows it ca n't last . it 's a fling . she 's having fun with it . jack : i do n't know . i do n't think it was that easy . she was acting really , really hard to be nonchalant . phyllis : really . you think she 's that bright , to throw reverse psychology at billy ? jack : why not ? play the hard - to - get , catch - me - if - you - can party girl ... phyllis : then she lets him catch her ... jack : and become the next mrs. billy abbott . phyllis : i do n't know . that plan might require more brain cells than the girl has . jack : oh , no , no , no . bethany 's as smart as they come , and she 's got billy 's number . you know he loves a challenge . and what 's more exciting than what you ca n't have ? phyllis : please . not everybody wants to marry abbotts . you 're way too handsome , and too full of yourselves . jack : you wanted to marry me . phyllis : best thing i ever did . all that yummy goodness . jack : [ laughs ] okay , hold that thought . listen , i got to find hilary before it 's too late to talk this foundation business , okay ? phyllis : okay . hey , you tell her to keep her claws to herself , okay ? jack : the only claws i want are yours . phyllis : then i 'll let you go . but only if you make it up to me later . jack : count on it . bethany : i was having fun . billy : you could have blown us out of the water . bethany : would you lighten up ? you 're a lot hotter when you 're not all freaked out . billy : hey , this is not a game , okay ? bethany : would you stop worrying ? listen , i know what i 'm supposed to do , and i 'm doing it . maybe i went a little too far with the `` love of your life `` thing . billy : yeah , you think ? what you pulled back there , okay , that -- that is not part of the plan . bethany : so i went a little off - script . okay , jack did n't suspect a thing . and phyllis , that woman is a total pro . not even a twitch . but for a poker player , you revealed everything . it was all right here . if your brother had looked at you a little too long , it would have been game over . so instead of shredding me , you need to worry about yourself . if anyone is going to give this away , it 's you . [ woman laughing ] billy : you ca n't make me stop feeling what i 'm feeling . you ca n't make me think that we do n't belong together . phyllis : how is it gon na work ? we can not work . billy : why not ? because of jack ? phyllis : yes . billy : phyllis , i love my brother , but what you have is an illusion . it 's a memory of what used to exist . what we have , what we -- what we could be is real . if you would just allow it to be , it would be real . i know it . and you know it . jack : everything all right ? phyllis : yeah . just missed you . that 's all . jack : well , we were just in bed together a couple hours ago . phyllis : i know . that was before . jack : before what ? phyllis : before that . jack : is it just me , or does this feel like a whole new beginning for us ? phyllis : forget the past . just here in the now . it 's just us , okay ? it 's just us . billy : i know you 're trying to shore up your marriage . how 's that working out for you ? phyllis : you really want to know the answer to that question ? billy : i should tell you to go back there and be with your man . you know , smile the smile , walk the walk . but i 'm not gon na do that . you want to know why ? because ... because i know what you really need . paul : okay . dylan : [ sighs ] paul : so , you know , nobody saw neville at the hospital . it makes me wonder if he was ever there . dylan : what , you think ashley sent us on a wild - goose chase ? paul : or it was neville 's smokescreen so he could take off . dylan : well , he did turn his cell phone off so we ca n't track his location . paul : right . even if ashley thinks he 's innocent , his disappearance certainly gives credence to hilary 's story . dylan : so , do you think dr. neville paid that lab tech off to push the approval through ? paul : okay . well , i 'm thinking -- i - i -- i 'm thinking that ... the lab tech winds up dead . neville feels the walls closing in , so he runs . dylan : well , that would n't be the first time , right ? paul : hilary 's kidnapping , right ? you go to his hotel room looking for her . he panics , drugs you , and takes off . dylan : and it seems like he may have panicked again . paul : [ sighs ] yeah . i want an apb on dr. simon neville . dr. neville : dead ? ! oh , that 's it . that -- that -- this is the end . this is the end . [ chuckles ] i 'm sorry . my work , our research , everything . ashley : it is not the end . we 've been through so much before . we 're gon na get through this , too . dr. neville : no , no , no . you do n't understand . hilary 's too powerful . she 's got all the cards . ashley : she 's not too powerful . we 've got the truth on our side . dr. neville : since when has that ever been enough ? ashley : listen , snap out of it , okay ? now just calm down . hilary has gone too far . a man has died . now , we go to the police , we tell them it was not you that paid that person off , it was her . it was hilary . dr. neville : ashley , it 's not that simple . ashley : yes , it is . now , listen to me . devon 's power and his money can not protect hilary anymore . she goes away . you have all the time in the world . you can push this launch date until the drug is ready . and you can realize this dream of yours . okay ? and we 're gon na do this . come on . we 're going to the police . dr. neville : i ca n't turn hilary in . ashley : why not ? jack : oh , just the woman i 'm looking for . hilary : oh . hey , jack . uh , what can i do for you ? jack : well , i just wanted to go over a couple of bullet points for that meeting we have with the city tomorrow . hilary : uh , yeah . absolutely . um ... i was just going over a time line for the opening of the new treatment center . and i spoke to the mayor 's office about participating in a ribbon - cutting ceremony as soon as we have a firm date . jack : you are a wonder . and not just with this . you handled that whole dedication ceremony so beautifully . i know jill can be overbearing . hilary : eh ... jack : you did n't take the bait . you stayed cool , stayed focused on the foundation . and i want you to know i really appreciate that . hilary : well , i do this all from my heart , jack . i do n't need a thank you , but it 's really -- it 's nice to hear . lily : look at her . she 's practically drooling on him . it 's disgusting . cane : just let this go . lily : no , someone needs to open his eyes . cane : okay , it 's not your responsibility , okay , 'cause nothing good is gon na come of this -- lily . lily ! lily : excuse me . hilary : lily , this is not a good time . lily : how can you not see what she is ? billy : well , sorry if my performance was n't up to par for you . bethany : i bet you do n't get to say that very often . billy : [ sighs ] this plan is ridiculous . bethany : are you kidding ? it 's brilliant . the way phyllis covered your tracks for your secret motorcycle ride gone wrong ? she disappears , throws me into your arms -- it 's genius . billy : yeah . yeah , you 're right . she 's really good at pushing me away . bethany : that 's only because she wants you so badly . [ door slams ] phyllis : what do you think you were doing back there ? bethany : oh , billy just asked me the exact same thing . you two really are quite the pair . phyllis : yeah , you could have ruined everything . bethany : am i seriously having this conversation again ? relax . phyllis : here . bethany : uh , what 's this , a bonus ? phyllis : it 's for you to shut up and go away . bethany : okay . well , you know where to find me when you need me . have fun ! phyllis : we have a problem . billy : yeah , we do . and you 're making it worse . billy : you made a mistake bringing bethany into this . phyllis : i did n't have a choice . you want me to tell everybody that i was on the back of your motorcycle when i should have been at jack 's big foundation party ? billy : you said that she could be handled , okay ? that girl is a wild card . phyllis : she is better than the truth . billy : what if she decides that she does n't want to play anymore ? what if she decides she wants more money ? she can go to jack at any point . so what do we do then ? phyllis : she 's not the type . billy : no ? come on . you do n't know anything about her . phyllis : she wants the cash . she does n't want the trouble . billy : okay . what are you really doing here ? phyllis : someone had to talk some sense into that girl . billy : no , no , no . this has nothing to do about the girl . phyllis : do n't go looking for something where it 's not . billy : i saw your face . when bethany kissed me . phyllis : i was n't jealous . billy : you were jealous . phyllis : i was n't . we have to rethink this . this is n't working . billy : yeah , it 's not working because we ca n't keep pretending anymore . because we ca n't stay the hell away from each other . ashley : neville , after everything that hilary has put you through , this is your chance . it 's our chance for you to reclaim your dream . come on ! the good guys win . dr. neville : i may not be one of the good guys . ashley : what are you talking about ? dr. neville : hilary and i have a complicated history . ashley : how complicated can it be ? you saved her life . dr. neville : but the circumstances are n't [ sighs ] necessarily what you were led to believe . ashley : you told me that an anonymous donor paid you to treat her . you did n't do anything wrong , neville . dr. neville : except for lying to the authorities . and you . i was fully aware of the kidnapper 's identity . ashley : you knew ? dr. neville : and hilary knows it , too . it 's the big stick she 's been using to keep me in line . ashley : she 's blackmailing you ? dr. neville : reminded me just the other day of how unfortunate it would be if the truth came out .

[ sighs ] now ... there are about 20 more where these came from , so stay sharp . we 're gon na be here all night . [ scene_break ] judge fitzpatrick : explain yourself , detective brady . why do you believe miss walker 's bail should be denied ? bo : it 's pretty straightforward , your honor . we have evidence linking miss walker to the death and murder of her ex - husband , trent robbins . evidence that puts her at the scene of the crime the night of the murder . nicole : i thought you said the judge was your friend . e.j . : shh , please . bo : we have a bead from a dress that was found at the scene of the crime , and we were later able to match that bead to a dress found in the defendant 's closet . nicole : is he ever gon na shut up ? [ scene_break ] bo : the defendant has a history of instability and deceitfulness . she lied to the state about being married to the victim . she also has a tendency toward violence . she shot colin murphy with intent to kill . she tried to murder her ex - husband , victor kiriakis . e.j . : objection , your honor . not only is this hearsay , it is also irrelevant to the case at hand . judge fitzpatrick : overruled . let detective brady finish . bo : thank you , your honor . we believe that the defendant is an extreme flight risk . e.j . : again ! your honor , i 'm sorry . the detective is mistaking his opinion for facts . judge fitzpatrick : no more interruptions , mr. dimera , or i will have you escorted from this courtroom . detective brady , i trust you 're about to wind up your statement ? bo : yes , your honor . thank you for your consideration . we believe that the defendant should remain in jail until the hearing . judge fitzpatrick : thank you , detective brady . it was good to hear from you . please be seated . bo : thank you , your honor . judge fitzpatrick : and now you will hear from me . just give me a moment . i 've come to a decision . [ scene_break ] judge fitzpatrick : all rise . first , let me assure you , i do n't make this decision cavalierly or without having thoroughly examined the details of this case , which i had the opportunity to do before the hearing . i 've also listened carefully to what was said in court today . after taking into consideration the fact that miss walker lied about the state of her marriage to trent robbins and that she 's attempted murder before , i 'm inclined to have serious doubts about miss walker 's veracity or her morality . i 'm also disconcerted by her affiliation with the dimera family , to whom she 's now inextricably tied for obvious reasons . therefore , bail is denied . [ gavel bangs ] bailiff , please escort miss walker to jail immediately . e.j . : it 's okay . [ scene_break ] sami : oh , god , no . i ca n't do this anymore . please , please , please , can we please start again tomorrow ? rafe : do you think this is some sort of game ? do you think that i 'm having fun looking at mug shots ?

[ sighs ] now ... there are about 20 more where these came from , so stay sharp . we 're gon na be here all night . [ scene_break ] judge fitzpatrick : explain yourself , detective brady . why do you believe miss walker 's bail should be denied ? bo : it 's pretty straightforward , your honor . we have evidence linking miss walker to the death and murder of her ex - husband , trent robbins . evidence that puts her at the scene of the crime the night of the murder . nicole : i thought you said the judge was your friend . e.j . : shh , please . bo : we have a bead from a dress that was found at the scene of the crime , and we were later able to match that bead to a dress found in the defendant 's closet . nicole : is he ever gon na shut up ? [ scene_break ] bo : the defendant has a history of instability and deceitfulness . she lied to the state about being married to the victim . she also has a tendency toward violence . she shot colin murphy with intent to kill . she tried to murder her ex - husband , victor kiriakis . e.j . : objection , your honor . not only is this hearsay , it is also irrelevant to the case at hand . judge fitzpatrick : overruled . let detective brady finish . bo : thank you , your honor . we believe that the defendant is an extreme flight risk . e.j . : again ! your honor , i 'm sorry . the detective is mistaking his opinion for facts . judge fitzpatrick : no more interruptions , mr. dimera , or i will have you escorted from this courtroom . detective brady , i trust you 're about to wind up your statement ? bo : yes , your honor . thank you for your consideration . we believe that the defendant should remain in jail until the hearing . judge fitzpatrick : thank you , detective brady . it was good to hear from you . please be seated . bo : thank you , your honor . judge fitzpatrick : and now you will hear from me . just give me a moment . i 've come to a decision . [ scene_break ] judge fitzpatrick : all rise . first , let me assure you , i do n't make this decision cavalierly or without having thoroughly examined the details of this case , which i had the opportunity to do before the hearing . i 've also listened carefully to what was said in court today . after taking into consideration the fact that miss walker lied about the state of her marriage to trent robbins and that she 's attempted murder before , i 'm inclined to have serious doubts about miss walker 's veracity or her morality . i 'm also disconcerted by her affiliation with the dimera family , to whom she 's now inextricably tied for obvious reasons . therefore , bail is denied . [ gavel bangs ] bailiff , please escort miss walker to jail immediately . e.j . : it 's okay .

[ scene_break ] i believe in love doris : i think the thoughts and feelings expressed in that song reveal a lot about jeffrey . things we may not have known . jeffrey never talked about himself a lot . but it 's clear that all of us came away with a very strong impression of who he was , and that is part of the reason that we 're here today . reva wanted us all to get to know jeffrey through each other 's eyes . she has asked you all to come here today and bring something that reminds you of jeffrey , and place it in the box . and since i am already up here , i guess i 'll start first , if that 's okay ? jeffrey and i were often on opposite sides of the courtroom . whether he won or lost , he loved the battle . there was not a more worthy adversary . i will miss him glaring at me from across the courtroom . reva : this is jeffrey 's recipe for his famous chicken o'neill . ( laughs ) i think he learned to cook it , so that he could impress all the ladies , and it worked , because he got me . frank : we went and got him a springfield police department coffee mug . he loved it . he said that he honestly believed that it was the best coffee in the building . the best coffee that he had ever had , and well , honestly , we all felt that it tasted like tar , so ... mel : this is the first case that jeffrey and i tried together . before jeffrey became my friend , i sort of made decisions because i was supposed to . and jeffrey was the first person who told me i could become a lawyer just because i wanted to . i miss you . rafe : i made a pretty big mistake recently enough . and jeffrey happened to be the one who paid the price . but even after that , he felt like i deserved a second chance , which alone is amazing , but he ... he wrote letters to the parole board and to the judge before my hearing . for that , i just wanted to thank him , if only ... if only one last time . and say that i honestly wish i could have gotten to know him a little bit better . marina : jeffrey was a creature of habit . he came into our restaurant every tuesday , thursday and saturday . i do know what it means for him to be gone . and i hope that whoever is responsible for this pays . because i will miss serving him . hawk : i did n't think jeffrey was the right man for my reva . but he proved me wrong . he and i tossed back quite a few whiskeys before the wedding last year . and then i gave him permission to marry my daughter . i 'm grateful he did . phillip : i did n't know jeffrey very well . but i know that he was a good father . and a good lawyer . like atticus . olivia : i do n't think this is a big secret anymore . but it 's certainly one of jeffrey 's greatest assets . he was a wonderful father . he loved our little girl , ava , so much ... and his new little boy . he would carry pictures of them in his wallet . he would change them out every month or so . so i 'm going to put a picture of ava in here for you , jeffrey , and maybe one of colin . yeah ? reva : thank you . dinah : wait . i have something ... i 've known jeffrey for a very long time . he plucked me out of prison . he saved my life . of course , he made me live someone else 's in order to save mine . we had some wonderful adventures together . and i owe him everything . and i 'm very sorry that i wo n't be able to repay him . i 'm so sorry , reva . reva : he chose you to go on his final adventure with him because he trusted you . you should be proud . [ scene_break ] ashlee : are you okay ? marina : no , this is just harder than i thought it was going to be , you know ? ashlee : oh , wait . here , rafe bought a lot of tissues . marina : thanks . i think i 'm going to go get some water . [ scene_break ] remy : marina looks really upset , man . mallet : she has a lot to be upset about . remy : maybe you should just give her some space . mallet : i 'll be right back . hey . marina : i am not going to fall apart and give you some kind of statement that you can use against me . mallet : you are my wife , and you 're crying . and i want to make sure you 're all right . marina : it 's just ... it was n't that long ago that we had to bury coop , you know ? that 's all . mallet : i could come sit by you . marina : no . you ca n't . [ scene_break ] doris : does anyone else have anything to place in the box for jeffrey ? that 's fine . we 'll continue . jeffrey was a valued member of the community , of our state , of our country . and when the dear governor heard of his tragic death , he decided to award him with the medal of valor for his years of service . ava . ava : my father ... my father was n't the type of man who felt comfortable expressing himself . after i got to know him a little better , i learned how to understand what he was saying through his eyes . they were ... they were soft and caring . and he always made me feel safe . i 'll remember those eyes and so many other things . but what i am the most grateful for is that my dad was n't alone . and i take great comfort in knowing that he was loved . these earrings are earrings that my dad gave me on our first christmas that we shared together . it was a christmas where we really got to know each other . obviously they 're special to me . i will be thinking of my dad every christmas , and i 'm sure he 'll be thinking of me . so this is what i have for the box . i love you , dad . billy : reva , the family wanted to do something to honor jeffrey . and we thought hard about what we could do that you would both like . so , we 've made an arrangement with the city to take a plot of land over near fifth street and turn it into a community playground . that 's why when you take colin and his little friends over there , they can play , and not only have a good time , but he can be proud to know how his father was remembered . we all love you . josh : i did n't really get to know jeffrey very well until just recently , when reva 's cancer came back . i watched him sit by her bedside in the hospital day after day . and after their son colin was born , he would then be at home taking care of his son , when he was n't with reva . he never complained . he was grateful , thankful for every moment he had with them . and he was the kind of man who would do anything to protect his family . never hesitated . in fact , even when he went away on this last trip , he knew that he might not come back . but he went anyway . he chose to go . to keep his family safe . even as the police were closing in , his thoughts were with his family . he told me , himself , that he had to go back and spend time with them , spend one perfect day with his wife and with his son . he needed to do that to say goodbye . because it was the kind of man he was . he needed to say goodbye . he was a good man . reva : jeffrey needed to say goodbye ? that 's what he told you ? that he needed to come and find me and say goodbye ? i did n't get to say goodbye . i 'm the one who needs a goodbye . you bastard . you damn ... you damn bastard ! how could you do that to me ? how could you bring me here to this park and laugh and smile at me , and play your guitar ? how could you do that ? all the time you knew you were going to walk away from me ? you bastard ! why ? why did n't you tell me ? why did n't you tell me ? you got to say goodbye , and i did n't ! you got to see me one last time ! i did n't get to see you ! i did n't get to know you were leaving ! i did n't know you were leaving ! you bastard ! ( crying ) josh : obviously , this is a very emotional day , especially for reva , and for everyone else here . i know she appreciates the fact that you 've all come here . maybe this would be a good time to take a break and let reva collect herself . okay ? [ scene_break ] dinah : this is my fault . shayne : what ? dinah : this is my fault . shayne : no , this is not your ... this is not your fault . that did not happen because of anything you said . dinah : no , you do n't understand . this happened because i did n't say something . matt : dinah , it 's all right . it 's all right . just get a drink of water and just relax a second . i think that ... you know , we got here late . she was a little upset . and i think it 's just too much . shayne : you know what ? why do n't we go for a walk ? matt : that 's a good idea . why do n't ... why do n't you and shayne go for a walk ? shayne : come on . matt : you 'll be okay . shayne : come on . [ scene_break ] mallet : you know , marina started all this , so i ca n't believe she just stands by and lets this murder blast all the lives of the people around hear . remy : if it 's here , it 's not going to change anything . what do you want her to do ? mallet : i do n't know . remy : so you want her to come forward ? mallet : no , i ... i want her to tell me . i just need her to be honest with me .

[ scene_break ] eric : felicia , is this okay ? maybe you should 've stayed at the clinic ? stephanie : no , she wants to be here with us . christian : well , you 're definitely a rule breaker . stephanie : well , that 's true . christian : and it 's a good thing , too . because in 99 cases out of 100 , we would n't be having this conversation . you would n't be here at all . eric : you 're very lucky , sweetheart . christian : let 's just make sure you can handle this family reunion . felicia : oh , i 'm gon na see my family tonight . christian : you 'll see them when i say you can see them . stephanie : are you expecting a call from jacqueline , perhaps ? eric : this whole thing could be straightened out by now . stephanie : oh -- oh , of course it would n't be a mistake at all . i mean , she 's never lied about anything , certainly the irs or marriage proposals . eric : look , about that -- stephanie : we 'll get into that another time . eric : no , i would like to explain . stephanie : no , this is n't about us tonight . it 's about your daughter . it 's about felicia getting to see the rest of the family . it 's not about our marriage , and it 's certainly not about your lady friend , jacqueline . [ scene_break ] jackie : tax fraud [ laughter ] tax fraud , me ? it 's ridiculous . it 's impossible ! [ scene_break ] massimo : you honestly believe that i could have your mother imprisoned ? nick : you 've got the power to do almost anything you want . massimo : but why would i want to do that ? i 've cut off my connections to your mother a long time ago . nick : except for me . massimo : for which i will always be grateful . it 's too bad her other choices could not be as beneficial . nick : are you talking about deacon sharpe ? massimo : i certainly disagreed with a lot of your mother 's choices . nick : i 'd say this goes a lot deeper than just a choice -- massimo : that damn man was a criminal ! all right ? he terrorized me while i was in a wheelchair . he seduced my wife under my own roof . nick : well , i can see you have n't quite let that go , have you ? [ massimo sighs ] [ scene_break ] felicia : i really do look like the living dead , do n't i ? stephanie : no , no , not so bad . eric : sweetheart , you 're alive . that 's the only thing your sister and brothers are going to see . stephanie : uh - oh . felicia : what ? stephanie : it 's coming out in clumps . felicia : the chemo . christian : yes . felicia : cut it off . stephanie : really ? felicia : cut it off , mother . cut it all off .

[ scene_break ] nick : you 're quiet . nothing to say ? massimo : certainly not about deacon sharpe . we were discussing your mother 's legal problems . nick : i think we were discussing how far you 'll go if you 're crossed . massimo : well , your mother has n't upset me recently . nick : i have . massimo : to that , i will readily admit . but , i do n't see the connection between your mother 's problems and the irs and your unfortunate relationship with brooke . nick : you know how much i love them both . you equate love with control . massimo : i am concerned about the amount of control that brooke has exerted over you -- nick : this is n't about brooke ! it 's not even about my mother . it 's about you and your obsession with controlling everything . you want me to stay away from brooke , and i wo n't give you what you want . so -- where does that leave us , pop ? [ scene_break ] felicia : cut it all off . it 's gon na fall out anyway . this way , i lose it on my terms . cut it ! stephanie : right now ? felicia : yes , now , mother , i want you to do it . stephanie : honey , i do n't know anything about cutting hair . eric : honey , there are other things . there are wigs -- felicia : mother , cut it .

[ felicia sobbing ] felicia : oh , god . christian : the kids are going to be thrilled with what you 're doing , felicia . her donating her hair to make wigs for children undergoing chemo is just great . felicia : dr. r , do you really think this is long enough to donate ? christian : what , are you kidding ? they 'll love this ! felicia : good . stephanie : okay . felicia : mom , stop . stephanie : what ? felicia : get the clippers . buzz it off ! stephanie : oh -- felicia : no , it 'll make it longer that way . i 'm serious , just shave it all off . lets make some sick kids happy . stephanie : honey -- i have n't done this since i worked on the poodle . [ clippers buzz ] just put your -- just put your head slightly -- eric : there you go . stephanie : oh , honey . felicia : it 's okay , mom . stephanie : oh , baby . felicia : oh ! i just thought of something . stephanie : what ? felicia : when i was 12 , i wanted something very badly and you would n't let me have it . stephanie : am i surprised ? felicia : well , i want it right now .

[ sighs ] what the hell , jordan . jordan : expecting someone else ? julian : expecting ? no . i was hoping that my sister might trust me and come home . jordan : so , i guess you really do n't know where ava is , do you ? julian : no . is that why you 're here ? jordan : actually , uh , i came to talk about our boss . ned : alexis . i did n't think you 'd make it . alexis : i did n't think i would . however , there is someone that would like to see all of you . luke : did you save a slice for me ? dr. obrecht : cesar . [ sobbing ] is it really you ? faison : yes , liesl . it 's me . dr. obrecht : [ gasps ] [ sobs ] tracy : oh , my god . luke , you 're back . you 're finally back . tracy : oh , my god , luke . i have missed you so much . luke : that is so good to hear . tracy : what happened to you ? are you all right ? luke : i am now . tracy : you 've been gone for months . luke : longer . tracy : what is that supposed to mean ? luke : i 'll explain everything . but first ... hey , cupcake . do n't you want to give your old man a little hug here ? dante : hold on . before my wife welcomes you back , i think you got to answer some questions first . julian : well , as , uh , compelling a subject as our boss is , i really do n't have time for this right now because something big just went down , so if you 'll excuse me ... jordan : yeah , make time . because something big is definitely going down , present tense . julian : okay . make it quick . jordan : i just got word from our fearless leader that a major shipment of coke is coming in from colombia . yeah , and who 's responsible for moving all that product ? oh , yeah ! i am . julian : well , it 's not something you have n't done before . jordan : not with all that volume and not with all that heat , julian . all the risk is on me , okay ? so if i 'm gon na walk that line for this organization , i damn well deserve to know who the hell 's calling the shots . julian : all right , you know what ? to hell with it . you 're right . you deserve to know who 's in charge . dr. obrecht : it really is you . you 're alive . faison : yeah . i 'm very much alive . very well , too . dr. obrecht : all this time ... i thought that robert scorpio and anna devane had taken you from me . i confronted anna and demanded she own up to your murder . for almost a year , she refused to answer , tormenting me with uncertainty . faison : it 's one of our tactics , is it not ? dr. obrecht : it was only yesterday that i finally got her to confess that she had n't killed you , that all she had done was leave you to rot in a pit in the floor underneath the stables outside ! the craven inhumanity ! faison : liesl , do n't be upset . look at me . look at me . i 'm fine . i escaped . dr. obrecht : so their counterfeit stable boy said . but he was hired by robert scorpio , so i had no way i could be certain . faison : well , now you know . i spent little time in that horse prison . dr. obrecht : i 'm relieved . but , cesar ? faison : yeah ? dr. obrecht : that was a year ago . faison : yes . dr. obrecht : where have you been since then ? what have you been doing ? silas : where the hell is my phone ? hey . ava : hi . silas : why did n't you tell me you were going out ? ava : well , you were in the shower . i did n't want to bother you . silas : where 'd you go ? ava : well , we are right around the corner from an agent that used to represent franco back when he was a starving artist . franco used to go on and on about how wyatt would do anything for him . so i figured maybe he was helping franco hide nina and the baby . silas : what 'd he say ? ava : he said he has n't heard from him . silas : sorry . ava : yeah . i knew it was a long shot , but i do have some other ideas about who franco might have gone to for help . this town was chock full of francophiles once upon a time . silas : good . well , hopefully you can get a lead or two out of some of them . ava : yeah . i hope so , too . silas , you know , i ca n't thank you enough for bringing me all the way here to help me look for my baby . silas : forget about it . we share a daughter . if something like this happened to kiki , i 'd be out of my mind . ava : thank you . and if i have n't told you before ... i am so sorry that i kept her away from you for so long . silas : it 's water under the bridge , right ? you know , um , i was just -- i wanted to call the cops back home and see if they had any news , but , uh , i ca n't -- i ca n't find my phone . i have n't seen it since this morning . have you ? morgan : the police do n't have any leads . kiki , i 've never even seen her . i mean , this may be my kid , and i may never see her . kiki : no , you will . you ca n't say something like that , okay ? you have to have faith . i know that the baby is with nina , but at least franco 's with her . morgan : franco ? franco -- franco hates everything corinthos . there 's no telling what he 's gon na do to her . kiki : [ sighs ] i know that franco 's done a lot of bad stuff recently . morgan : i 'm sorry . recently ? kiki : i 'm just saying he 's always been very fatherly towards me . nina : i 'm fully aware that this baby is ava jerome 's . and that the father is papa corinthos or the young corinthos or something . i 'm fine with that . i 'm cool . everything 's cool . i 'm so cool . franco : good . good . i 'm glad to hear it . and now that you finally accepted that the baby does n't belong to you , i 've been thinking about what to do . nina : about ? franco : about the baby , nina . we need to give the baby back . nina : you want me to give this baby back ? why ? franco : because it 's not our baby . nina : i still do n't see your point . franco : you kidnapped a baby , nina . i helped you kidnap a baby . we brought said baby over an international border . i 'm pretty sure that even in canada , that 's still a felony . i was out getting supplies , and i was terrified that somebody was gon na recognize me ! nina : no one 's looking for us in canada . franco : okay , you -- you say that , but let me tell you something . the homepage of the port charles press is a laundry list of organizations that are looking for us because of that baby ! nina : because of this beautiful , beautiful , little baby ? franco : would you cut it out ? honestly , i 'm trying to have a conversation with you . nina : okay , do n't act like i 'm the only one at fault . you did some pretty illegal things yourself , okay ? franco : i did some unsavory things to carly and a few other people . you did some nasty things to ava , not to mention what you did to your mother . nina : well , that 's all in the past . franco : you 're not getting this at all , okay ? kidnapping -- one rung below murder . and we might have some breathing room if we were n't toting around an internationally hunted mafia baby , but we are . so what i 'm proposing is that we anonymously -- very anonymously -- we just put dimples here into a basket and leave her outside the police station or -- or the fire department if they have them in canada . nina : oh , with professionals who can care for her , right ? franco : yes . and then she can get the help that she might need and the care that she needs , and we do n't have to worry about the fbi and ameripol , which apparently is a thing , and the provincial police of ontario and the canadian mounties and god himself . nina : yeah . okay , so once the heat is off , what do we do ? franco : we just slip into the seething humanity . we -- we start over . nina : we just start a whole new life ? franco : yeah . brand spankin ' . come on . what do you say ? nina : i say ... it sucks . kiki : just so you know , i 've called franco a number of times hoping that he would see it was me and pick up and maybe i could talk him into bringing nina and the baby back . morgan : i know , i know . thanks for trying . and i 'm sorry that i 'm making this all about me . it 's just , you know -- do n't think i 've forgotten that the baby 's also your sister . kiki : yeah , i was starting to wonder . morgan : and on top of that , i 'm sure you 're worried about your mom now that she 's on the run for murder . ava : your phone ? no , i 'm sorry . i have n't seen it . silas : can you check your bag ? ava : why would your phone be in my bag ? silas : maybe you picked it up by mistake ? ava : let 's see . this one is mine . and this is really awkward . [ chuckles ] i 'm sorry . silas : [ chuckles ] may i have it , please ? ava : yes , of course . but just so you know , i 've already called the port charles police , and they really do n't have anything to report at all . silas : that 's too bad . i still need my phone . thank you . oh . kiki called . she 's probably wondering where we are . ava : well , i will text her right now . i 'll let her know that everything 's okay . silas : no , that 's all right . i want to talk to her anyway . ava : no . i ca n't let you do that . jordan : so , you 're gon na tell me who our boss is after keeping it a secret for so long ? what 's changed ? julian : well , i guess you could thank alexis for that . i decided to come clean with her on everything . circumstances given what they are , it wo n't be long before everyone else in town knows , too . jordan : what circumstances ? julian : well , you 'll find out soon enough . as for our boss , well , i guess you should know before the cops get wind of it . jordan : okay . yeah , great . who is this great and mysterious oz ? julian : remember when you were on the phone with him ? you thought he sounded like luke spencer ? you were right . tracy : dante , luke just got home . ca n't the interrogation wait ? luke : that 's all right , sweetheart . let 's keep the peace . what 's going on , son - in - law ? dante : you do n't know ? luke : no , i do n't know . for a very good reason . what 's going on ? tell me . dante : well , we 've been investigating you as being a part of julian jerome 's drug trafficking . luke : go on . dante : we also have evidence to suggest that you caused the accident that killed patrick drake 's infant son . luke : why would i do that ? why would i do any of this ? dante : so you 're denying it ? luke : absolutely . i 'm denying every damn bit of it . alexis : he 's telling the truth , dante . dante : how do you know that ? alexis : because while those crimes were being committed , luke was locked away at miscavige . lulu : what ? alexis : your father was in a cell since january . someone was posing as him . faison : i 've been nowhere . i 've been everywhere . dr. obrecht : and i have been here mourning you . so if it 's not too much trouble , i 'd appreciate you being a touch more specific . faison : even though i escaped , i had to remain sub rosa . dr. obrecht : even to me ? faison : to you , to everyone . whether you like it or not , i 'm still a wanted man despite anna 's attempt to punish me according to her own whims . dr. obrecht : cesar , please tell me you finally see your anna for the detestable creature she is . that woman tried to force you to live like a mole , forever underground with blind eyes and sharp snout . she treated as if you were some kind of lower species instead of the genius that you are . anna devane is unworthy of your love . do n't you see that now ? faison : yes . yes , i do . dr. obrecht : you do ? faison : yeah , i thought anna would someday be able to give me her heart , but ... she has none to give . dr. obrecht : you mean this ? you 're not toying with me ? faison : no . i realized during my exile that anna 's not worthy of me . i 've been such a fool all these years , wasting my life loving her while i turned my back on a good woman , a worthy woman , a woman who has a heart to give me . and that woman , liesl , is you . dr. obrecht : me ? franco : you do n't like my plan . nina : oh , i 'm sorry . does `` suck `` mean something different than it did in the ' 90s ? franco : no , it means pretty much the same thing . you do n't like my plan ? come up with your own plan . you got a better plan ? what 's your plan ? nina : well , i 'm not dropping this child off at a fire station . franco : that is not your baby , crazypants . nina : just because i did n't give birth to her does n't mean i do n't want her . franco : okay , so after everything that we 've just talked about , you still want to hang on to this baby ? nina : of course i do . of course i do . i - i lost my baby . my -- my mother basically killed my baby , and ava got to have a child with my husband . franco : so , to get her back , you 'll just take ava 's baby ? nina : ava is not only a homewrecker , but she 's a murderer , and you said that -- that murder is worse than kidnapping . you said it . you said it yourself . and ava does not deserve that child . i do . franco : sonny 's baby -- you know that , right ? nina : yeah , who 's also a murderer . franco : maybe . well , yes , exactly . that 's my point . you think that a mafia kingpin is just gon na let you take his flesh and blood and waltz off into the canadian sunset ? nina : a better question -- better question -- um , how is sonny gon na take care of his kid when he 's in prison ? franco : hench - nannies . i -- not to mention that the baby might also be morgan 's . nina : oh , morgan . well , what i hear about morgan is he can hardly change his own shirt let alone change a diaper , okay ? so , why should he have that innocent child ? franco : i 'm sure that carly would be more than happy to help . nina : oh , well , carly 's a great choice . i mean , she 's mother of the year , right ? franco : that 's a valid point . her children are all passive - aggressive . nina : you know what ? i just ... i 'm so disappointed in you . i really am . i do n't understand your -- actually , i do understand your priorities . franco : okay , good . nina : no , bad . bad . shallow and wrong . you know what ? you do n't want this excess baggage . i 'm just gon na take -- i 'm gon na take my baby and i 'm gon na leave . morgan : have you talked to silas lately ? kiki : i left him a few voicemails . he has n't gotten back to me yet . why ? morgan : well , i mean , this could be kind of a reach , but nina was crazy about him , so maybe she tried to contact him . kiki : you know what ? she did -- she did attack him right before she went after my mom . anything 's possible , right ? morgan : yeah , um , would you mind trying your dad again ? i mean , it 's worth a shot , is n't it ? silas : you ca n't let me call my daughter ? ava : i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to snap at you like that . it 's just that -- silas : it 's just that what ? ava : well , i 've told you . sonny 's men are after me . and if you tell kiki where we are , morgan might hear . sonny 's men will find me , and they will kill me . silas : ava , you 're not the only one who can keep a secret , all right ? i 'm not gon na tell anyone . [ cell phone rings ] silas : oh , look who it is . ava : do n't answer . silas : hi , kiki . no , i was just about to call you . what 's up ? jordan : so i was right . luke spencer is the man in charge . julian : no . not luke spencer . jordan : damn it , julian . do n't jerk me around . just -- julian : i 'm not . trust me . look , our boss sounds like luke spencer because he 's able to do a perfect imitation of his voice . he 's actually able to do a perfect everything that is luke spencer . from his hair to his eyes all the way down to his shoes . jordan : okay , so , what ? this guy is luke 's double ? julian : yeah . he is . alexis : luke has spent the last few months trussed up in a straitjacket and drugged into submission . luke : alexis busted me out this afternoon . we came right here after a short detour . tracy : how short ? luke : long enough for a shower and to do a little shopping . tracy : a shower ? i 'm out of my mind with grief and you get a shower and go shopping ? ! luke : i am not gon na show up here looking like some filthy lunatic in hospital scrubs ! tracy : oh . alexis : okay , i think the salient point here is that an impostor 's been living luke 's life and has been committing crimes in his name . lulu : so , wait , all this time , that was n't you ? luke : no . cupcake , no . tracy : so when anna brought you back from miscavige after heather locked you up ... that was n't you ? luke : no , that was an impostor . i 've been locked up in the booby hatch . tracy : all this time ? luke : all this time . ned : so you were n't the man who made inappropriate sexual advances on kiki jerome ? luke : who ? what ? no ! ned : and you never threatened to kill me ? luke : ned , i 've never had any problems with you . even if i did , you 're tracy 's son . why would i threaten you ? alexis : poor ned . you must be really confused . tracy : poor ned ? poor ned ? what about me ? ! i married an impostor ! i 'm gon na be sick . luke : tracy . tracy , it was n't your fault . look , i do n't want to think about all that right now . i would have killed the son of a bitch if i could . i 'm just so -- i 'm so sorry . tracy : i do n't understand . he looked exactly like you . olivia : how ? how did he do it ? lulu : the mask . dr. obrecht : cesar . i suffered the depths of despair when i thought robert and anna had killed you . and now here you are . faison : mm - hmm . dr. obrecht : my joy knows no bounds . but what are we going to do ? you 're still a wanted man . faison : i have one more thing to do here in port charles . and after that , we 'll slip away together . dr. obrecht : you mean that ? faison : every word of it . dr. obrecht : then go . do whatever it is you need to do , and i 'll be ready when you 're finished . but first ... another kiss ? [ chuckles ] britt : mother , what is taking you so lo -- [ gasps ] oh , my god . jordan : spencer has a ringer ? julian : you got it . jordan : and all this time , the real luke has been locked up , drugged , and held prisoner in some institution for the criminally insane ? julian : he 's out now thanks to me , which is why i need to get the hell out of here . lulu : i must have been right about the mask . ned : what mask ? lulu : why do n't you ask larry ? sam and patrick heard larry here on the phone with jerry jacks discussing how they were gon na deal with their luke spencer problem . dante : whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa . where the hell do you think you 're going ? larry : out for a cigar , unless you prefer i smoke in here . ned : is this true ? are you working with jerry jacks ? larry : [ chuckles ] in cahoots with my abductor ? preposterous . lulu : sam and patrick broke into your safe - deposit box . what do you think they found ? a file on cesar faison . faison : happy thanksgiving , britta . dr. obrecht : you 're in shock . so was i . but your father survived that despicable woman 's attempt to cage him . [ door closes ] dr. obrecht : is n't it wonderful ? britt : no , mother . it 's the opposite of wonderful . dr. obrecht : how can you say that about your own father ? britt : he 's an international terrorist , kidnapper , all - around criminal . faison : you say that as though it 's a bad thing . britt : this man needs to be locked up , which is exactly what 's going to happen . i 'm getting nikolas . dr. obrecht : no , britta . you 're not going to tell nikolas . britt : watch me . dr. obrecht : fine ! enjoy your last moments of happiness with the prince . we both know how easily i can destroy your relationship with nikolas . mark my words , britta . if you make me lose the love of my life , i will force you to lose yours . luke : faison . larry : i know no one of that name . ned : father , was n't he part of that cartel you were mixed up in ? tracy : he certainly was . alexis : was n't faison supposed to be in a supermax in europe ? lulu : we 're not sure how faison fits into all of this . all we know is that the file contained an elaborate blueprint for a mask exactly like the one faison wore . olivia : when he was impersonating duke lavery . tracy : lulu and i thought it might be a mask of you . luke : well , that cheap imitation of me came to miscavige yesterday and told me all about this moron . he said that jerry sent him to you in exchange for elq shares . larry : jerry stuffed me into a bag . i was in the dark , old boy , both literally and figuratively . luke : it does n't sound like it to me , old boy . in fact , that impostor went on and on about you , ashton . larry : i do n't know what that impostor has to do with me . luke : i asked him if he was you wearing my face . tracy : what 'd he say ? luke : nothing . he would n't answer . so come on . level with us . are you the one who 's been stealing my life ? silas : happy thanksgiving to you , too . it 's been a strange year , but if i 'm thankful for anything today , it 's you . kiki : aww . thanks . back at you . uh , anyway , i 'm really glad that i finally got ahold of you . i 've been trying to reach you . silas : yeah , my phone went a little awol . kiki : that 's okay . i do n't know if you have any thanksgiving plans , but we 're -- morgan and i -- are spending ours at kelly 's . silas : just about the saddest thing i ever heard . kiki : [ chuckles ] yeah , do n't knock it till you try it . um , anyway , i 'm calling you because we 're really worried about the baby . silas : yeah . i 'm -- i 'm worried about the little one myself . kiki : right . well , uh , morgan and i were just wondering if maybe nina had reached out to you ? silas : no . have n't heard from nina . i would have told the cops if i had . kiki : what about my mom ? have you heard from her ? nina : all right , you want to be free , that 's fine . you 'll be free . that 's yours . i 'm just gon na pick up all my excess baggage and then we 're gon na get out of your hair , okay ? franco : would you stop it , please ? nina : why ? why ? why ? why ? so you can convince me to give up this baby to strangers ? [ baby crying ] nina : people who have n't cared for her ? no . i 'm coming , baby . now she 's crying . great . franco : can we talk for a second about this ? nina : no . oh , so i can listen to a self - centered narcissist convince me that -- that this is just baggage ? franco : you know what ? fine . then you go . go , go , go . go ! see how far you get ! see how you survive without me ! nina : oh , we 're gon na be fine . franco : nina , i came back for you ! i did n't need to do that ! i could have been free and clear by now , but i came back for you to make sure you were safe , to make sure you stayed out of trouble , and you -- you -- it 's working . it 's because of me that you have n't been caught . nina : i have money . let go of this . franco : if you touch that money , nina -- listen to me . if you touch the money , it 's being traced if it has n't already been frozen , okay ? [ baby crying ] franco : you touch the money , they 're on you like -- like blood on a wedding dress . nina : i got it ! i 'm -- i 'm here , baby . let go of me ! let go ! [ sighs ] franco : nina , if you go now , you wo n't get far . you 'll end up in prison , and then you really will be without the baby . [ baby crying ] franco : okay , i 'm coming . calm down . it 's not so bad , is it ? oh , well ... yeah . you do have a point being miserable . no matter who he is , papa 's definitely a corinthos . and ... if he 's a corinthos , he 's one of the dregs of humanity . she is really cute , right ? she 'd be even cuter if she stopped crying . [ chuckles ] all right . nina : oh , you 're -- you -- you do n't know what you 're -- you 're not gon na do that right . franco : oh . seem to be doing okay . nina : [ chuckles ] i guess so . franco : i do n't know how i would know . i 've never had a kid . nina : i know . i 've never had a kid , either . franco : well , you 're really good with her . nina : really ? franco : yeah . nina : oh . thank you . i think it 's instinct , you know . i just wanted something so badly . and when i got it , it just kind of came naturally . hey . wanting it and just -- oh -- tasting it . nothing can compare to love like this , right ? so , you know what ? that -- that position is not -- it 's -- she usually does n't like to be fed in this position . franco : okay . nina : so you have to put her up . franco : okay . nina : okay . like a little up . not -- not really like that . that 's -- that 's okay . she likes it . she -- she likes it . you 're doing good . franco : thanks . silas : have i heard from your mom ? kiki : you were so great with my mom when she was hiding from morgan 's dad that we figured , you know , maybe she would feel safe with you . silas : no , i have n't -- i have n't heard from your mother . she 's -- she 's , i 'm sure , out looking for her baby . have -- have you checked in with the police station ? kiki : police station ? that 's the last place my mom would go right now . i mean , unless they caught her and she 's locked up . ava : hang up . i - i have some , uh , word about the baby . silas : wait , what -- why -- why would the cops put your mom in jail ? kiki : you seriously do n't know ? silas : no , i do n't . kiki : my mom is wanted for murder . she killed connie falconeri . dr. obrecht : i think it 's a fair exchange , do n't you ? you get to keep your love and i get to keep mine . britt : fine . i wo n't tell nikolas . but you are not hiding that creature in this house . dr. obrecht : i will do whatever i need to do to keep your father safe . faison : please stop now , okay ? do n't argue . i have something i need to accomplish elsewhere . britt : oh , do n't let us keep you . dr. obrecht : you 're not leaving me again , cesar , are you ? you will come back ? faison : yes . i will be back . for you . julian : i really got to go 'cause i 'm in real trouble , all right ? jordan : okay , i get it . i get it . and i 'm sorry . but i still need to know the name of our boss . julian : i already told you everything i know . jordan : well , can you at least -- at least tell me where i can -- i can track him down . julian : [ sighs ] our boss has been holding the real luke spencer in miscavige this whole time . i just let him out , so in a few hours , the cops are gon na know everything . now , if they find me , they 're gon na arrest me . even worse , our boss might even catch on . so i really need to get the hell out of here , okay ? jordan : okay , well , what about ava ? she 's out there , too . i mean , what am i supposed to do ? julian : look , look , look . the other luke spencer will introduce himself when the time is right . jordan , you 're gon na be fine , okay ? jordan : so this is it ? julian : for now . you turned out to be a hell of a soldier . i 'm just sorry that it has to end . jordan : me , too . julian : [ sighs ] luke : have you been masquerading as me ? larry : oh , for heaven 's sake . i do n't have any idea who this `` raison `` fellow is . can -- can somebody pour me a drink ? gin , preferably . at this point , i 'll drink just about anything . ned : you can drop the whole `` hapless drunk in the wrong place at the wrong time `` act , dad . your cover 's blown . larry : ah . et tu , brute ? i am much maligned . fortunately for me , i do n't need to answer to any of you . tracy : what happened ? luke : where 's ashton ? tracy : do n't tell me the old lush outran you . dante : no , tracy , he had a car waiting , a black sedan . i 'm calling in an apb . ned : my father had a getaway car ? oh , my god . what has he got himself into ? olivia : are you okay ? ned : you know , i always knew my -- my father was a low - level conman , but i never imagined that he would be involved in something like this . working with jerry jacks ? imprisoning luke ? and whatever the hell is dante suspects ? luke : nice work , cupcake . i guess dante is n't the only sleuth in the family . lulu : sam and patrick did all the hard stuff . luke : well , remind me to thank them . so , now that you know i 'm not the evil twin everybody thought i was , how about that hug ? lulu : i 've missed you so much . luke : oh , baby , i 've missed you , too . [ both chuckle ] silas : thanks for bringing me up to speed , kiki . for some reason , i was completely in the dark . kiki : i 'm -- i 'm sorry to unload all of that on you . i know it 's a lot . silas : it sure is . kiki : are you okay ? silas : yeah , i 'm all right . listen , i need to -- i need to go now , all right ? i 'm gon na check in with you later . let me know if you hear anything about nina and the baby . kiki : yeah , i will . i promise . morgan : what happened ? it sounded like your dad did n't know what ava did to connie . kiki : he did n't . but he does now . ava : silas . get out of my way . silas : ava , you 're not going anywhere . franco : [ chuckles ] hi . check it out . i 'm successfully feeding a little human being . nina : she likes you . she 's looking at you like you 're god of all things . franco : she 's so warm . wow . nina : yeah . wow . franco : she 's beautiful . nina : you still want to drop her off at the firehouse ? dr. obrecht : i feel like a pilgrim embarking on a great , new world . britt : bon voyage . dr. obrecht : i 've dreamed of this moment since before you were born . [ sighs ] cesar has finally chosen me over anna . britt : yeah , you two really hit the jackpot . dr. obrecht : i 've stepped from a long and arduous journey out of darkness and into the promised land ! like the first settlers finally realizing the dreams here . i never had any use for this american tradition . but now i see it in all its glory . thanksgiving . i now know what gratitude is . happy thanksgiving , schatzi . britt : yeah , there 's yams in the other room , so i 'm gon na go . dr. obrecht : come now . can you not be happy for mutti ? britt : no , i can not be happy for you . not after you threatened yet again to destroy my happiness with nikolas . nikolas : how could she possibly do that ? alexis : when i found luke at miscavige , i tried to get him to go to the hospital , i tried to get him to go to the police . he just wanted to come here . he just wanted to be with lulu and tracy . ned : well , you made some people very happy today , and thankful . olivia : yeah . you 're a real saint . luke : well , this is me , the real deal . no mask here . tracy : [ laughs ] lulu : wait a second . sam and patrick said they saw larry leaving with something from his safe - deposit box , but they did n't know what it was . tracy : it could be a mask of your face . luke : so you 're telling me he could still be out there running around with my face , pretending to be me ? fluke : going somewhere ? [ next_on ] silas : ( forcing ava to sit down ) you 're not going anywhere . franco : ( to nina ) we ca n't just keep her . ( tracy knocks a drink out of luke 's hand ) nikolas : ( to britt ) how about you stop lying and start telling the truth ? anna : ( to duke ) did n't you tell lucy about your new job ? dante : ( on the phone ) how 'd you like to arrest julian jerome ? ned : ( to alexis , with olivia watching ) why are you defending julian all of a sudden ? fluke : ( to julian ) you have to die . | julian agrees with jordan that she deserves to know who is in charge of the organization . he tells her about luke 's look - alike . he says he has to disappear before the boss finds out that the real luke is out of miscavige . tracy welcomes luke home . dante wants answers . alexis explains . tracy realizes that she married an imposter and gets nauseated . larry silently observes and tries to slip away . lulu informs him that sam and patrick broke into his safe deposit box and found the file on cesar faison and the blueprint for an elaborate mask like the one faison wore when he was impersonating duke lavery . luke reveals that the imposter told him about larry 's involvement . he asks larry if he is the imposter wearing a luke mask . larry runs and gets away in a car that was waiting for him . dante puts out an apb . holding a gun , fluke intercepts julian on his way out of the penthouse . | <s>[INST] kiki : i know this is n't exactly a norman rockwell thanksgiving , but it tastes really good . morgan : yeah , i know . i 'm just not really hungry . kiki : well , you have to eat something . morgan : i ca n't . kiki , i ca n't . i ca n't eat . i ca n't think . all i can do is worry about this baby . nina : hey , pretty girl . how 'd you get to be so pretty ? hmm ? how did that happen ? where did you get those dimples ? ah , how did you get such epic dimples ? probably from your father , right ? from your daddy . franco : nina ? did n't we have a nice , long talk about who that baby belongs to ? nina : i was n't talking about silas . silas : ava , by any chance , you check out that shower ? ava ? julian : ava ? [ sighs ] what the hell , jordan . jordan : expecting someone else ? julian : expecting ? no . i was hoping that my sister might trust me and come home . jordan : so , i guess you really do n't know where ava is , do you ? julian : no . is that why you 're here ? jordan : actually , uh , i came to talk about our boss . ned : alexis . i did n't think you 'd make it . alexis : i did n't think i would . however , there is someone that would like to see all of you . luke : did you save a slice for me ? dr. obrecht : cesar . [ sobbing ] is it really you ? faison : yes , liesl . it 's me . dr. obrecht : [ gasps ] [ sobs ] tracy : oh , my god . luke , you 're back . you 're finally back . tracy : oh , my god , luke . i have missed you so much . luke : that is so good to hear . tracy : what happened to you ? are you all right ? luke : i am now . tracy : you 've been gone for months . luke : longer . tracy : what is that supposed to mean ? luke : i 'll explain everything . but first ... hey , cupcake . do n't you want to give your old man a little hug here ? dante : hold on . before my wife welcomes you back , i think you got to answer some questions first . julian : well , as , uh , compelling a subject as our boss is , i really do n't have time for this right now because something big just went down , so if you 'll excuse me ... jordan : yeah , make time . because something big is definitely going down , present tense . julian : okay . make it quick . jordan : i just got word from our fearless leader that a major shipment of coke is coming in from colombia . yeah , and who 's responsible for moving all that product ? oh , yeah ! i am . julian : well , it 's not something you have n't done before . jordan : not with all that volume and not with all that heat , julian . all the risk is on me , okay ? so if i 'm gon na walk that line for this organization , i damn well deserve to know who the hell 's calling the shots . julian : all right , you know what ? to hell with it . you 're right . you deserve to know who 's in charge . dr. obrecht : it really is you . you 're alive . faison : yeah . i 'm very much alive . very well , too . dr. obrecht : all this time ... i thought that robert scorpio and anna devane had taken you from me . i confronted anna and demanded she own up to your murder . for almost a year , she refused to answer , tormenting me with uncertainty . faison : it 's one of our tactics , is it not ? dr. obrecht : it was only yesterday that i finally got her to confess that she had n't killed you , that all she had done was leave you to rot in a pit in the floor underneath the stables outside ! the craven inhumanity ! faison : liesl , do n't be upset . look at me . look at me . i 'm fine . i escaped . dr. obrecht : so their counterfeit stable boy said . but he was hired by robert scorpio , so i had no way i could be certain . faison : well , now you know . i spent little time in that horse prison . dr. obrecht : i 'm relieved . but , cesar ? faison : yeah ? dr. obrecht : that was a year ago . faison : yes . dr. obrecht : where have you been since then ? what have you been doing ? silas : where the hell is my phone ? hey . ava : hi . silas : why did n't you tell me you were going out ? ava : well , you were in the shower . i did n't want to bother you . silas : where 'd you go ? ava : well , we are right around the corner from an agent that used to represent franco back when he was a starving artist . franco used to go on and on about how wyatt would do anything for him . so i figured maybe he was helping franco hide nina and the baby . silas : what 'd he say ? ava : he said he has n't heard from him . silas : sorry . ava : yeah . i knew it was a long shot , but i do have some other ideas about who franco might have gone to for help . this town was chock full of francophiles once upon a time . silas : good . well , hopefully you can get a lead or two out of some of them . ava : yeah . i hope so , too . silas , you know , i ca n't thank you enough for bringing me all the way here to help me look for my baby . silas : forget about it . we share a daughter . if something like this happened to kiki , i 'd be out of my mind . ava : thank you . and if i have n't told you before ... i am so sorry that i kept her away from you for so long . silas : it 's water under the bridge , right ? you know , um , i was just -- i wanted to call the cops back home and see if they had any news , but , uh , i ca n't -- i ca n't find my phone . i have n't seen it since this morning . have you ? morgan : the police do n't have any leads . kiki , i 've never even seen her . i mean , this may be my kid , and i may never see her . kiki : no , you will . you ca n't say something like that , okay ? you have to have faith . i know that the baby is with nina , but at least franco 's with her . morgan : franco ? franco -- franco hates everything corinthos . there 's no telling what he 's gon na do to her . kiki : [ sighs ] i know that franco 's done a lot of bad stuff recently . morgan : i 'm sorry . recently ? kiki : i 'm just saying he 's always been very fatherly towards me . nina : i 'm fully aware that this baby is ava jerome 's . and that the father is papa corinthos or the young corinthos or something . i 'm fine with that . i 'm cool . everything 's cool . i 'm so cool . franco : good . good . i 'm glad to hear it . and now that you finally accepted that the baby does n't belong to you , i 've been thinking about what to do . nina : about ? franco : about the baby , nina . we need to give the baby back . nina : you want me to give this baby back ? why ? franco : because it 's not our baby . nina : i still do n't see your point . franco : you kidnapped a baby , nina . i helped you kidnap a baby . we brought said baby over an international border . i 'm pretty sure that even in canada , that 's still a felony . i was out getting supplies , and i was terrified that somebody was gon na recognize me ! nina : no one 's looking for us in canada . franco : okay , you -- you say that , but let me tell you something . the homepage of the port charles press is a laundry list of organizations that are looking for us because of that baby ! nina : because of this beautiful , beautiful , little baby ? franco : would you cut it out ? honestly , i 'm trying to have a conversation with you . nina : okay , do n't act like i 'm the only one at fault . you did some pretty illegal things yourself , okay ? franco : i did some unsavory things to carly and a few other people . you did some nasty things to ava , not to mention what you did to your mother . nina : well , that 's all in the past . franco : you 're not getting this at all , okay ? kidnapping -- one rung below murder . and we might have some breathing room if we were n't toting around an internationally hunted mafia baby , but we are . so what i 'm proposing is that we anonymously -- very anonymously -- we just put dimples here into a basket and leave her outside the police station or -- or the fire department if they have them in canada . nina : oh , with professionals who can care for her , right ? franco : yes . and then she can get the help that she might need and the care that she needs , and we do n't have to worry about the fbi and ameripol , which apparently is a thing , and the provincial police of ontario and the canadian mounties and god himself . nina : yeah . okay , so once the heat is off , what do we do ? franco : we just slip into the seething humanity . we -- we start over . nina : we just start a whole new life ? franco : yeah . brand spankin ' . come on . what do you say ? nina : i say ... it sucks . kiki : just so you know , i 've called franco a number of times hoping that he would see it was me and pick up and maybe i could talk him into bringing nina and the baby back . morgan : i know , i know . thanks for trying . and i 'm sorry that i 'm making this all about me . it 's just , you know -- do n't think i 've forgotten that the baby 's also your sister . kiki : yeah , i was starting to wonder . morgan : and on top of that , i 'm sure you 're worried about your mom now that she 's on the run for murder . ava : your phone ? no , i 'm sorry . i have n't seen it . silas : can you check your bag ? ava : why would your phone be in my bag ? silas : maybe you picked it up by mistake ? ava : let 's see . this one is mine . and this is really awkward . [ chuckles ] i 'm sorry . silas : [ chuckles ] may i have it , please ? ava : yes , of course . but just so you know , i 've already called the port charles police , and they really do n't have anything to report at all . silas : that 's too bad . i still need my phone . thank you . oh . kiki called . she 's probably wondering where we are . ava : well , i will text her right now . i 'll let her know that everything 's okay . silas : no , that 's all right . i want to talk to her anyway . ava : no . i ca n't let you do that . jordan : so , you 're gon na tell me who our boss is after keeping it a secret for so long ? what 's changed ? julian : well , i guess you could thank alexis for that . i decided to come clean with her on everything . circumstances given what they are , it wo n't be long before everyone else in town knows , too . jordan : what circumstances ? julian : well , you 'll find out soon enough . as for our boss , well , i guess you should know before the cops get wind of it . jordan : okay . yeah , great . who is this great and mysterious oz ? julian : remember when you were on the phone with him ? you thought he sounded like luke spencer ? you were right . tracy : dante , luke just got home . ca n't the interrogation wait ? luke : that 's all right , sweetheart . let 's keep the peace . what 's going on , son - in - law ? dante : you do n't know ? luke : no , i do n't know . for a very good reason . what 's going on ? tell me . dante : well , we 've been investigating you as being a part of julian jerome 's drug trafficking . luke : go on . dante : we also have evidence to suggest that you caused the accident that killed patrick drake 's infant son . luke : why would i do that ? why would i do any of this ? dante : so you 're denying it ? luke : absolutely . i 'm denying every damn bit of it . alexis : he 's telling the truth , dante . dante : how do you know that ? alexis : because while those crimes were being committed , luke was locked away at miscavige . lulu : what ? alexis : your father was in a cell since january . someone was posing as him . faison : i 've been nowhere . i 've been everywhere . dr. obrecht : and i have been here mourning you . so if it 's not too much trouble , i 'd appreciate you being a touch more specific . faison : even though i escaped , i had to remain sub rosa . dr. obrecht : even to me ? faison : to you , to everyone . whether you like it or not , i 'm still a wanted man despite anna 's attempt to punish me according to her own whims . dr. obrecht : cesar , please tell me you finally see your anna for the detestable creature she is . that woman tried to force you to live like a mole , forever underground with blind eyes and sharp snout . she treated as if you were some kind of lower species instead of the genius that you are . anna devane is unworthy of your love . do n't you see that now ? faison : yes . yes , i do . dr. obrecht : you do ? faison : yeah , i thought anna would someday be able to give me her heart , but ... she has none to give . dr. obrecht : you mean this ? you 're not toying with me ? faison : no . i realized during my exile that anna 's not worthy of me . i 've been such a fool all these years , wasting my life loving her while i turned my back on a good woman , a worthy woman , a woman who has a heart to give me . and that woman , liesl , is you . dr. obrecht : me ? franco : you do n't like my plan . nina : oh , i 'm sorry . does `` suck `` mean something different than it did in the ' 90s ? franco : no , it means pretty much the same thing . you do n't like my plan ? come up with your own plan . you got a better plan ? what 's your plan ? nina : well , i 'm not dropping this child off at a fire station . franco : that is not your baby , crazypants . nina : just because i did n't give birth to her does n't mean i do n't want her . franco : okay , so after everything that we 've just talked about , you still want to hang on to this baby ? nina : of course i do . of course i do . i - i lost my baby . my -- my mother basically killed my baby , and ava got to have a child with my husband . franco : so , to get her back , you 'll just take ava 's baby ? nina : ava is not only a homewrecker , but she 's a murderer , and you said that -- that murder is worse than kidnapping . you said it . you said it yourself . and ava does not deserve that child . i do . franco : sonny 's baby -- you know that , right ? nina : yeah , who 's also a murderer . franco : maybe . well , yes , exactly . that 's my point . you think that a mafia kingpin is just gon na let you take his flesh and blood and waltz off into the canadian sunset ? nina : a better question -- better question -- um , how is sonny gon na take care of his kid when he 's in prison ? franco : hench - nannies . i -- not to mention that the baby might also be morgan 's . nina : oh , morgan . well , what i hear about morgan is he can hardly change his own shirt let alone change a diaper , okay ? so , why should he have that innocent child ? franco : i 'm sure that carly would be more than happy to help . nina : oh , well , carly 's a great choice . i mean , she 's mother of the year , right ? franco : that 's a valid point . her children are all passive - aggressive . nina : you know what ? i just ... i 'm so disappointed in you . i really am . i do n't understand your -- actually , i do understand your priorities . franco : okay , good . nina : no , bad . bad . shallow and wrong . you know what ? you do n't want this excess baggage . i 'm just gon na take -- i 'm gon na take my baby and i 'm gon na leave . morgan : have you talked to silas lately ? kiki : i left him a few voicemails . he has n't gotten back to me yet . why ? morgan : well , i mean , this could be kind of a reach , but nina was crazy about him , so maybe she tried to contact him . kiki : you know what ? she did -- she did attack him right before she went after my mom . anything 's possible , right ? morgan : yeah , um , would you mind trying your dad again ? i mean , it 's worth a shot , is n't it ? silas : you ca n't let me call my daughter ? ava : i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to snap at you like that . it 's just that -- silas : it 's just that what ? ava : well , i 've told you . sonny 's men are after me . and if you tell kiki where we are , morgan might hear . sonny 's men will find me , and they will kill me . silas : ava , you 're not the only one who can keep a secret , all right ? i 'm not gon na tell anyone . [ cell phone rings ] silas : oh , look who it is . ava : do n't answer . silas : hi , kiki . no , i was just about to call you . what 's up ? jordan : so i was right . luke spencer is the man in charge . julian : no . not luke spencer . jordan : damn it , julian . do n't jerk me around . just -- julian : i 'm not . trust me . look , our boss sounds like luke spencer because he 's able to do a perfect imitation of his voice . he 's actually able to do a perfect everything that is luke spencer . from his hair to his eyes all the way down to his shoes . jordan : okay , so , what ? this guy is luke 's double ? julian : yeah . he is . alexis : luke has spent the last few months trussed up in a straitjacket and drugged into submission . luke : alexis busted me out this afternoon . we came right here after a short detour . tracy : how short ? luke : long enough for a shower and to do a little shopping . tracy : a shower ? i 'm out of my mind with grief and you get a shower and go shopping ? ! luke : i am not gon na show up here looking like some filthy lunatic in hospital scrubs ! tracy : oh . alexis : okay , i think the salient point here is that an impostor 's been living luke 's life and has been committing crimes in his name . lulu : so , wait , all this time , that was n't you ? luke : no . cupcake , no . tracy : so when anna brought you back from miscavige after heather locked you up ... that was n't you ? luke : no , that was an impostor . i 've been locked up in the booby hatch . tracy : all this time ? luke : all this time . ned : so you were n't the man who made inappropriate sexual advances on kiki jerome ? luke : who ? what ? no ! ned : and you never threatened to kill me ? luke : ned , i 've never had any problems with you . even if i did , you 're tracy 's son . why would i threaten you ? alexis : poor ned . you must be really confused . tracy : poor ned ? poor ned ? what about me ? ! i married an impostor ! i 'm gon na be sick . luke : tracy . tracy , it was n't your fault . look , i do n't want to think about all that right now . i would have killed the son of a bitch if i could . i 'm just so -- i 'm so sorry . tracy : i do n't understand . he looked exactly like you . olivia : how ? how did he do it ? lulu : the mask . dr. obrecht : cesar . i suffered the depths of despair when i thought robert and anna had killed you . and now here you are . faison : mm - hmm . dr. obrecht : my joy knows no bounds . but what are we going to do ? you 're still a wanted man . faison : i have one more thing to do here in port charles . and after that , we 'll slip away together . dr. obrecht : you mean that ? faison : every word of it . dr. obrecht : then go . do whatever it is you need to do , and i 'll be ready when you 're finished . but first ... another kiss ?

[ door closes ] dr. obrecht : is n't it wonderful ? britt : no , mother . it 's the opposite of wonderful . dr. obrecht : how can you say that about your own father ? britt : he 's an international terrorist , kidnapper , all - around criminal . faison : you say that as though it 's a bad thing . britt : this man needs to be locked up , which is exactly what 's going to happen . i 'm getting nikolas . dr. obrecht : no , britta . you 're not going to tell nikolas . britt : watch me . dr. obrecht : fine ! enjoy your last moments of happiness with the prince . we both know how easily i can destroy your relationship with nikolas . mark my words , britta . if you make me lose the love of my life , i will force you to lose yours . luke : faison . larry : i know no one of that name . ned : father , was n't he part of that cartel you were mixed up in ? tracy : he certainly was . alexis : was n't faison supposed to be in a supermax in europe ? lulu : we 're not sure how faison fits into all of this . all we know is that the file contained an elaborate blueprint for a mask exactly like the one faison wore . olivia : when he was impersonating duke lavery . tracy : lulu and i thought it might be a mask of you . luke : well , that cheap imitation of me came to miscavige yesterday and told me all about this moron . he said that jerry sent him to you in exchange for elq shares . larry : jerry stuffed me into a bag . i was in the dark , old boy , both literally and figuratively . luke : it does n't sound like it to me , old boy . in fact , that impostor went on and on about you , ashton . larry : i do n't know what that impostor has to do with me . luke : i asked him if he was you wearing my face . tracy : what 'd he say ? luke : nothing . he would n't answer . so come on . level with us . are you the one who 's been stealing my life ? silas : happy thanksgiving to you , too . it 's been a strange year , but if i 'm thankful for anything today , it 's you . kiki : aww . thanks . back at you . uh , anyway , i 'm really glad that i finally got ahold of you . i 've been trying to reach you . silas : yeah , my phone went a little awol . kiki : that 's okay . i do n't know if you have any thanksgiving plans , but we 're -- morgan and i -- are spending ours at kelly 's . silas : just about the saddest thing i ever heard . kiki : [ chuckles ] yeah , do n't knock it till you try it . um , anyway , i 'm calling you because we 're really worried about the baby . silas : yeah . i 'm -- i 'm worried about the little one myself . kiki : right . well , uh , morgan and i were just wondering if maybe nina had reached out to you ? silas : no . have n't heard from nina . i would have told the cops if i had . kiki : what about my mom ? have you heard from her ? nina : all right , you want to be free , that 's fine . you 'll be free . that 's yours . i 'm just gon na pick up all my excess baggage and then we 're gon na get out of your hair , okay ? franco : would you stop it , please ? nina : why ? why ? why ? why ? so you can convince me to give up this baby to strangers ? [ baby crying ] nina : people who have n't cared for her ? no . i 'm coming , baby . now she 's crying . great . franco : can we talk for a second about this ? nina : no . oh , so i can listen to a self - centered narcissist convince me that -- that this is just baggage ? franco : you know what ? fine . then you go . go , go , go . go ! see how far you get ! see how you survive without me ! nina : oh , we 're gon na be fine . franco : nina , i came back for you ! i did n't need to do that ! i could have been free and clear by now , but i came back for you to make sure you were safe , to make sure you stayed out of trouble , and you -- you -- it 's working . it 's because of me that you have n't been caught . nina : i have money . let go of this . franco : if you touch that money , nina -- listen to me . if you touch the money , it 's being traced if it has n't already been frozen , okay ?

eve : yeah , she 's the light of my life . jj : okay , i just -- i -- i think we got ta stop 'cause this is daniel 's place and i promised him that nothing like this would go down here , so ... paige : right , i 'm sorry . so let 's go someplace else . my friend daphne said we could use her dorm room . i could call her -- jj : do n't -- do n't -- do you think that it 's too late like , too last minute ? paige : well , i mean , maybe . but -- but you do want us to be together , right ? jj : sure , yeah , yeah . it 's just that i do n't see it happening tonight , you know , 'cause i 'm just really tired and you had that early class . so , i 'm -- i 'm gon na go head home , okay ? i 'm just gon na hit the hay . paige : okay . do you know where my phone is ? jj : uh , i think it 's maybe behind the cushions . paige : yeah . jj : all right , so i 'll see ya . paige : jj ? jj : no , i just -- i got ta go home and get some sleep . all right , but you can use your key to lock up . aiden : looks like i really got my work cut out for me , do n't i ? ciara : why ? you do n't care what i think . grown - ups just do what they want , always . aiden : i remember it looking that way when i was a kid , but trust me , grown- ups do n't always just do what they want . ciara : oh , so now you want me to feel sorry for you ? aiden : i know that 's not gon na happen . cards on the table . i like your mom , i really do . ciara : tell me something i do n't know . aiden : okay , ciara . we would n't be having this conversation if i did n't like you too . hope : i should have told you what was going on . but julie , honestly , i have a hard time telling you and daddy things that i know will upset you and make you worry about me . julie : first of all , never say you know what i 'm thinking because you really have no idea . hope : okay . julie : bo has left you in a horrible position and if you 're ready to move on , i 'm 100 % behind you . and bo is a damn fool . hope : hear , hear . julie : but this is a lot for me to take in . hope : i know . julie : so please put my mind at rest about this , this dating . just tell me something about this man . hope : okay , um ... well , that 's the thing . i - i ca n't . not really . rory : hey , so where 's your boyfriend ? paige : why do you say it like that ? rory : well , i mean , ya know , he 's supposedly in love with you but here you are , all alone . paige : i just came from seeing him . rory : oh , and he had somewhere else to be ? shocking . paige : he went home . he 's tired , okay ? rory : well , just be sure that he 's not ditching you to steal someone else 's date . jj : mom ? abs ? lucas : so what do you want me to do ? put me to work . what can i do for you ? i mean , obviously , i 'll go upstairs and i can distract the kids , but do you need help with planning anything , like a memorial or something like that ? sami : no . no . ej did n't want the kids to have to go through that , you know , the circus it would become . lucas : i hate to say it , but he 's right . sami : so , i do wan na put together something , you know , just for the kids . something private so that they can -- so they can say good - bye . lucas : yeah , right . sami : and then i have to get to work figuring out how to get them the hell away from here . get them out of this place for good and away from stefano for good . kate : are you sure ? did you double - check ? no , it 's just worse than i thought . clyde : are you all right ? kate : i need to take care of something . i am so sorry to cut this short , but , um , it 's kind of an emergency . clyde : yeah , sounds that way . well , i hope to see you again soon . kate : yeah , well , if i do n't fix this , it might be 10 to 20 . thanks for the fortune cookie . sami , you idiot . aiden : okay , i know that we started out kind of tough , right ? but i like to think we became friends . i mean , remember during the auction , when we teamed up to save the day ? ciara : with uncle roman and that lady ? aiden : giselle . yeah , i think we kind of bonded then . think about law school , kid , 'cause you do n't give an inch . oh , i saw you laughing . ciara : did not . aiden : yeah ! oh -- all right , well , maybe you 're just laughing at me . because i must sound pretty desperate trying to remind you how we became friends . but even if you do n't think that i am your friend ... i think that you 're my friend . and it 's important to me that you know that i would never , ever even try to take your dad 's place . i totally respect how you feel about him . in fact , that 's one of the things i like about you . and i like your mom too . i would -- i would like to see your mom a lot . all right ? but even if i 'm lucky enough to do that , i promise you , and i take my promises really seriously ... i wo n't do anything to hurt either one of you ... ever . hope : maybe that 's why i never told you about aiden . because he 's difficult to describe . julie : good - looking comes to mind . hope : really ? see , i 'm not superficial like you , i really never noticed . okay , he is very good - looking and he 's a lawyer . he has a son in ciara 's class at st. luke 's , which i believe you already know . see , i know , you know , things like that about him . but there may be a lot of things that i may never know . he 's -- he 's really private and kind of guarded , but he 's a good dad . he loves his son . he 's very sweet with ciara and he makes me laugh even when i do n't want to . julie : been a long time since i heard you laugh , darling . hope : yeah , i know . we 're friends and if friendship turns into trust and he decides to open up , i 'll listen . but i 'm definitely not gon na push him . that 's ridiculous , it would be so out of character for me , would n't it ? i do n't know where this is going , but i think i 'd like to find out . julie : then i want you to find out . hope , darling , all i want is a happy ending for you . hope : thank you . i love you , thank you . rory : you know , there 's jj 's story about what happened with the girl at that party and then there 's what probably really did happen . paige : how would you know ? you passed out ! rory : well , i know that there was a really hot girl who was into me and the next thing i know , she ends up with my so - called best friend . paige : that 's not how it happened . rory : fine . you believe what jj said about that night and that he 's just tired and wanted to go home . and scarlett johansson is n't totally hot . jj : just tell her . she 'll get it , yeah . abigail : do you have to get back to work now ? ben : it 's more like i need to find a second job . abigail : what ? no . i am having a hard enough time as it is trying to find a first job . you ca n't get a second job . ben : i know , i know . it 's tough but it will happen . abigail : you really thinking about getting a second job ? ben : well , i definitely need to make more money than i am here . abigail : right , yeah . ben : just so i can move into a better place , you know ? a place , by which i mean , i actually have a front door i can lock . abigail : yeah , i 'd like that too , i think . ben : yeah ? good . abigail : but , you know , if you get a second job , then i would never see you , so ... ben : well , it 's either that or my only other option is to just use some of the money i 've been saving for college . abigail : no , what are you -- no , you ca n't use that money . not only would you have to pay that stupid penalty , but college is way too important to you . do n't use that money . you can -- you can find another way . something else will come up . it always does . ben : come here . lucas : you 're gon na be fine . and i guess i can start helping you by going upstairs and distracting the kids , so , um ... sami : i 'll be right there . lucas : all right . sami : okay ? lucas : do n't worry about it . take your time , okay ? kate : you have really stepped in it this time . this is jim . hope : oh ! y'all are back , and you did n't kill each other . that 's -- that 's a good sign . honey , you wan na talk ? ciara : no , i 'm kind of talked out and maybe you two could ... i do n't know , go on a date . maybe it wo n't be so bad . only ... hope : only what ? ciara : i 'll be watching you . aiden : [ laughs ] i think that 's a smart idea . abigail : i hate to do this , but i better get going . i have that interview tomorrow and i 'm gon na meet with a friend before it to try to get some inside information . ben : oh , yeah ? abigail : yeah . ben : well , just hang in there . your luck is bound to change sooner or later . maybe this one 's the one . abigail : yeah , you know , you say that every single time but this time , maybe you 're right . ben : i think so . abigail : bye . ben : hey , stalker . how long have you been here ? clyde : not long . just thought i 'd drop by -- ben : anyway , i do n't have the money to pay you back yet , but i 'll get it . clyde : i told you , son , that 's not necessary . ben : i 'm not sure that 's your call anymore . clyde : keep the money , please ? you deserve it after the hell i put you through . you got a right to it . that and a whole lot more . sami : kate , what ? kate : stay off this . stay off your phone . sami : what are you talking about ? what the hell ? kate : it 's about you headed for prison . i do n't wan na get dragged along for that ride . eric : all right , that 's it . you did great . eve : oh , thank you , thank you ! i guess it 's kinda like , um , riding a bike , huh ? eric : i 'm gon na put a proof sheet together so we can go over it later . talk about prints and graphics . eve : you know , i still can not believe that you used to be a priest . eric : the only thing constant in life is change , right ? eve : yeah , you said that . but talk about father what - a - waste . you know what ? i got an idea . what do you think about this ? we forget about the proof sheet , we go some place , and we 'll look at the pictures right on your camera 's digital display . we 'll order a couple of drinks , celebrate how great this went tonight . what do you say ? eric : you know what ? i do n't know , it 's just -- eve : really ? come on ! you 're in business now . you got ta keep your client happy . my treat , okay ? and a check for services rendered . eric : okay . eve : okay ! eric : sounds good . eve : good . eric : let me just pack up my things . eve : great . eric : unless you need to stay home for your daughter . eve : oh , paige , she 's probably still studying . she 's got her plate full with school . paige : the door 's open ? so you 're tired , huh ? jj : paige ? | ciara was upset when she found out that hope was going out with aiden . hope tried to explain that she was n't trying to replace bo , when julie arrived . abby wanted ben to tell him more about himself . ben told abby that he was abused . clyde told kate that he wanted a second chance with ben . lucas arrived at the mansion to comfort sami and allie . allie asked lucas if he would be a father to johnny and sydney the way ej looked out for her . | <s>[INST] ciara : who are you going on a date with , mom ?

sweetheart , if you have something to say , please say it . paige : oh , marybeth . marybeth : paige ! this is for birth control . paige : i want you to be my first . jj : wow . um ... paige : `` wow `` ? that 's it ? jj : no , it 's just that you kind of caught me off guard there , uh , that 's all . it 's like the last thing i -- paige : you expected , right ? well , i mean it . i , uh ... i got this this afternoon . jj : you bought birth control . paige : everything 's changed , jj . ever since kayla . abigail : remember the last time we talked ? you were talking about ej and you started to say that you never wanted anyone to die but then you stopped yourself . ben : yeah , so ? abigail : i just -- i feel like there was something you were n't saying . did you once want someone dead ? kate : imagine me thinking that you were plying me with expensive gifts . a funny fortune cookie . i did n't see that coming . clyde : well , i just wanted to provide you a little distraction , that 's all . you know , with ej dimera dying so suddenly like that , makes you think ... how random life is sometimes . there 's just no understanding why things happen the way they do . sami : i 'm gon na figure out how to stop crying . ej , i really will figure it out and then -- and then i swear to you i am going to be strong for our children . i 'm going to protect our kids . that is my sacred vow to you . i just have to figure out how i 'm gon na keep it . lucas : you do it with the help of the people who love you . sami : i am so glad that you are here . i mean , i know i always pretend like i do n't need my friends and my family , and i can do it alone , but i ca n't . i just -- i ca n't . i need the people i love . i need you all -- lucas : i know , i know . listen , listen to me . we are gon na do our best to be there for you , but do n't sell yourself short , okay ? you 're gon na do it . you 're gon na -- you 're gon na keep that promise . now i know it seems like this is the worst point in your life right now . i know it seems rock bottom for you , but you -- you are the most amazing survivor i 've ever known or ever will know . eve : marybeth , did something happen ? marybeth : nothing new . i just hope that you can find a way to make paige see what a loser jj is . eve : oh , trust me , i am trying . i just have to find a way to stop her before she makes an even bigger mistake . marybeth : i 'll keep my ears open . eve : okay . marybeth : it 's the best i can do . eve : good , you do that , all right ? because the sooner she realizes that he 's not worthy of her , the better . jj : aunt kayla ? you mean what she said ? paige , why would that change everything ? paige : well , it 's just ... ever since i found out what happened to her , i 've watched how supportive and protective you 've been about her -- about your whole family , really . and it convinced me that everything that i think about you is true . you 're amazing . jj : no , no , i 'm not . paige : hey , do n't contradict me . you 're the one i 've been waiting for ... all this time . ben : i did n't want ej dead . and you know how i feel about you , but you moved out of his life . you did n't even want to think about him ever again . abigail : yeah -- that 's -- that 's right , but i was n't asking about ej . ben , i was talking about you . talking like that , it reminded you of something . ben : mind reader . look , i do n't ever want to lie to you . you 're right , there was once someone that i wished were dead . my father . clyde : tell me , is there gon na be some kind of memorial ? kate : no , uh , ej did n't really want anything like that . clyde : well , still , you think a man like stefano dimera would want some kind of tribute to his son . kate : actually , it was very complicated between ej and stefano . they were back and forth . it was good , and then it was bad . it was -- it was very volatile . and unfortunately , they were in a very bad place when this happened and they did n't get to make up before ej died . clyde : no , i 'm sorry . that 's just wrong . sami : so rafe said they found the guy who did it , who -- who killed ej ... and that he was dead , that he died of an overdose , that he had ej 's things . and he had the gun . i just ca n't wrap my head around the idea that ej was the victim of something so -- so insanely random . lucas : listen , i 'm sure you and the kids do n't see it that way , all right ? you just -- you want him back . that 's all . allie : daddy ! sami : oh , sweetheart . lucas : honey , come here . hope : honey , calm down . it 's okay , everything 's gon na be all right . ciara : wan na bet ?

paige : well , i mean , maybe . but -- but you do want us to be together , right ? jj : sure , yeah , yeah . it 's just that i do n't see it happening tonight , you know , 'cause i 'm just really tired and you had that early class . so , i 'm -- i 'm gon na go head home , okay ? i 'm just gon na hit the hay . paige : okay . do you know where my phone is ? jj : uh , i think it 's maybe behind the cushions . paige : yeah . jj : all right , so i 'll see ya . paige : jj ? jj : no , i just -- i got ta go home and get some sleep . all right , but you can use your key to lock up . aiden : looks like i really got my work cut out for me , do n't i ? ciara : why ? you do n't care what i think . grown - ups just do what they want , always . aiden : i remember it looking that way when i was a kid , but trust me , grown- ups do n't always just do what they want . ciara : oh , so now you want me to feel sorry for you ? aiden : i know that 's not gon na happen . cards on the table . i like your mom , i really do . ciara : tell me something i do n't know . aiden : okay , ciara . we would n't be having this conversation if i did n't like you too . hope : i should have told you what was going on . but julie , honestly , i have a hard time telling you and daddy things that i know will upset you and make you worry about me . julie : first of all , never say you know what i 'm thinking because you really have no idea . hope : okay . julie : bo has left you in a horrible position and if you 're ready to move on , i 'm 100 % behind you . and bo is a damn fool . hope : hear , hear . julie : but this is a lot for me to take in . hope : i know . julie : so please put my mind at rest about this , this dating . just tell me something about this man . hope : okay , um ... well , that 's the thing . i - i ca n't . not really . rory : hey , so where 's your boyfriend ? paige : why do you say it like that ? rory : well , i mean , ya know , he 's supposedly in love with you but here you are , all alone . paige : i just came from seeing him . rory : oh , and he had somewhere else to be ? shocking . paige : he went home . he 's tired , okay ? rory : well , just be sure that he 's not ditching you to steal someone else 's date . jj : mom ? abs ? lucas : so what do you want me to do ? put me to work . what can i do for you ? i mean , obviously , i 'll go upstairs and i can distract the kids , but do you need help with planning anything , like a memorial or something like that ? sami : no . no . ej did n't want the kids to have to go through that , you know , the circus it would become . lucas : i hate to say it , but he 's right . sami : so , i do wan na put together something , you know , just for the kids . something private so that they can -- so they can say good - bye . lucas : yeah , right . sami : and then i have to get to work figuring out how to get them the hell away from here . get them out of this place for good and away from stefano for good . kate : are you sure ? did you double - check ? no , it 's just worse than i thought . clyde : are you all right ? kate : i need to take care of something . i am so sorry to cut this short , but , um , it 's kind of an emergency . clyde : yeah , sounds that way . well , i hope to see you again soon . kate : yeah , well , if i do n't fix this , it might be 10 to 20 . thanks for the fortune cookie . sami , you idiot . aiden : okay , i know that we started out kind of tough , right ? but i like to think we became friends . i mean , remember during the auction , when we teamed up to save the day ? ciara : with uncle roman and that lady ? aiden : giselle . yeah , i think we kind of bonded then . think about law school , kid , 'cause you do n't give an inch . oh , i saw you laughing . ciara : did not . aiden : yeah ! oh -- all right , well , maybe you 're just laughing at me . because i must sound pretty desperate trying to remind you how we became friends . but even if you do n't think that i am your friend ... i think that you 're my friend . and it 's important to me that you know that i would never , ever even try to take your dad 's place . i totally respect how you feel about him . in fact , that 's one of the things i like about you . and i like your mom too . i would -- i would like to see your mom a lot . all right ? but even if i 'm lucky enough to do that , i promise you , and i take my promises really seriously ... i wo n't do anything to hurt either one of you ... ever . hope : maybe that 's why i never told you about aiden . because he 's difficult to describe . julie : good - looking comes to mind . hope : really ? see , i 'm not superficial like you , i really never noticed . okay , he is very good - looking and he 's a lawyer . he has a son in ciara 's class at st. luke 's , which i believe you already know . see , i know , you know , things like that about him . but there may be a lot of things that i may never know . he 's -- he 's really private and kind of guarded , but he 's a good dad . he loves his son . he 's very sweet with ciara and he makes me laugh even when i do n't want to . julie : been a long time since i heard you laugh , darling . hope : yeah , i know . we 're friends and if friendship turns into trust and he decides to open up , i 'll listen . but i 'm definitely not gon na push him . that 's ridiculous , it would be so out of character for me , would n't it ? i do n't know where this is going , but i think i 'd like to find out . julie : then i want you to find out . hope , darling , all i want is a happy ending for you . hope : thank you . i love you , thank you . rory : you know , there 's jj 's story about what happened with the girl at that party and then there 's what probably really did happen . paige : how would you know ? you passed out ! rory : well , i know that there was a really hot girl who was into me and the next thing i know , she ends up with my so - called best friend . paige : that 's not how it happened . rory : fine . you believe what jj said about that night and that he 's just tired and wanted to go home . and scarlett johansson is n't totally hot . jj : just tell her . she 'll get it , yeah . abigail : do you have to get back to work now ? ben : it 's more like i need to find a second job . abigail : what ? no . i am having a hard enough time as it is trying to find a first job . you ca n't get a second job . ben : i know , i know . it 's tough but it will happen . abigail : you really thinking about getting a second job ? ben : well , i definitely need to make more money than i am here . abigail : right , yeah . ben : just so i can move into a better place , you know ? a place , by which i mean , i actually have a front door i can lock . abigail : yeah , i 'd like that too , i think . ben : yeah ? good . abigail : but , you know , if you get a second job , then i would never see you , so ... ben : well , it 's either that or my only other option is to just use some of the money i 've been saving for college . abigail : no , what are you -- no , you ca n't use that money . not only would you have to pay that stupid penalty , but college is way too important to you . do n't use that money . you can -- you can find another way . something else will come up . it always does . ben : come here . lucas : you 're gon na be fine . and i guess i can start helping you by going upstairs and distracting the kids , so , um ... sami : i 'll be right there . lucas : all right . sami : okay ? lucas : do n't worry about it . take your time , okay ? kate : you have really stepped in it this time . this is jim . hope : oh ! y'all are back , and you did n't kill each other . that 's -- that 's a good sign . honey , you wan na talk ? ciara : no , i 'm kind of talked out and maybe you two could ... i do n't know , go on a date . maybe it wo n't be so bad . only ... hope : only what ? ciara : i 'll be watching you . aiden : [ laughs ] i think that 's a smart idea . abigail : i hate to do this , but i better get going . i have that interview tomorrow and i 'm gon na meet with a friend before it to try to get some inside information . ben : oh , yeah ? abigail : yeah . ben : well , just hang in there . your luck is bound to change sooner or later . maybe this one 's the one . abigail : yeah , you know , you say that every single time but this time , maybe you 're right . ben : i think so . abigail : bye . ben : hey , stalker . how long have you been here ? clyde : not long . just thought i 'd drop by -- ben : anyway , i do n't have the money to pay you back yet , but i 'll get it . clyde : i told you , son , that 's not necessary . ben : i 'm not sure that 's your call anymore . clyde : keep the money , please ? you deserve it after the hell i put you through . you got a right to it . that and a whole lot more . sami : kate , what ? kate : stay off this . stay off your phone . sami : what are you talking about ? what the hell ? kate : it 's about you headed for prison . i do n't wan na get dragged along for that ride . eric : all right , that 's it . you did great . eve : oh , thank you , thank you ! i guess it 's kinda like , um , riding a bike , huh ? eric : i 'm gon na put a proof sheet together so we can go over it later . talk about prints and graphics . eve : you know , i still can not believe that you used to be a priest . eric : the only thing constant in life is change , right ? eve : yeah , you said that . but talk about father what - a - waste . you know what ? i got an idea . what do you think about this ? we forget about the proof sheet , we go some place , and we 'll look at the pictures right on your camera 's digital display . we 'll order a couple of drinks , celebrate how great this went tonight . what do you say ? eric : you know what ? i do n't know , it 's just -- eve : really ? come on ! you 're in business now . you got ta keep your client happy . my treat , okay ? and a check for services rendered . eric : okay . eve : okay ! eric : sounds good . eve : good . eric : let me just pack up my things . eve : great . eric : unless you need to stay home for your daughter . eve : oh , paige , she 's probably still studying . she 's got her plate full with school . paige : the door 's open ?

bridget : i 'm working . i 'm working at the hospital and the coffee shop . stephanie : and seeing friends ? bridget : some . stephanie : been to see your brother ? bridget : i 've been busy . stephanie : i 'm not trying to give you a hard time . i 'm just concerned . bridget : what , am i not being social enough now ? stephanie : you 've cut yourself off from ridge and the children . i do n't want you to cut yourself off from the rest of the family . okay ? after that terrible falling out with your mother , you lost your bearings . i do n't want that to happen to you again . bridget : it 's not going to . so if that 's why you asked me over here -- stephanie : i did n't ask you over here for that . i have something else i want to talk to you about . i have a proposal to make . ridge : oh , we 're interrupting . i guess i should 've called , huh ? i did n't think it would be a problem . but i -- i told the kids you 'd want to see them , though . brooke : oh , i do . i do . i miss them very much . ridge : they miss you , too . but if this is a bad time -- brooke : no . no , it 's fine . thomas : hey , dad , you wan na play marco polo ? ridge : yeah . steffy : brooke , do you wan na play ? nick : why do n't we get the young one inside ? it 's a little loud out here , do n't you think ? brooke : hope 's trying to sleep right over there . ridge : oh . you hear that guys . let 's keep it down a little bit , okay ? brooke : but you know what ? nick 's probably right . maybe i should take hope inside . who would like to go in for a popsicle ? phoebe : me ! thomas : i do . brooke : okay . grab your towels . i 'll be right back . oh , yes , yes . you boys play nice now . come on , let 's go . thomas : i want a cherry flavor . steffy : no , i want a cherry one . phoebe : i want a chocolate one . bridget : what are you gon na offer me this time , stephanie ? an internship on the space station ? stephanie : i probably could arrange that . but i was thinking of you moving a little closer . beverly hills . bridget : not closer to the family ? stephanie : you need a support system . bridget : i have one . stephanie : it does n't do any good if you do n't use it . bridget : so you would n't be opposed to me living closer to ridge ? stephanie : well , in retrospect , i -- i can see how this could have all come down . bridget : i wish to god it had n't . stephanie : maybe it would n't have if you 'd had someone to talk to . i mean , your whole life , all you ever heard was your mother referring to ridge as the romantic ideal . and you watched her put him above everyone else and everything else . bridget : do n't blame her for this . this was n't her fault . stephanie : you and he were thrown together at probably the most vulnerable point in both of your lives . bridget : i just wanted to help him . stephanie : yes . and i think your mother 's knight in shining armor just wanted to help you . bridget : stephanie , it was n't like that . stephanie : you never thought of him that way ? you watched him come to her rescue so many times . and here he was coming to your rescue . and you were grateful . bridget : yeah . it felt good to be taken care of . stephanie : of course , it did . that was a rarity for you when you were growing up . so i can understand how you could mistake his offer of comfort and support for something else . bridget : i guess i really did n't get a lot of that home . stephanie : but you could if you would like to move in here with me . nick : some move here , dressmaker . not very subtle . ridge : the kids wanted to go swimming . nick : do n't you belong to a country club or something ? ridge : well , they also wanted to see brooke . nick : so did you , did n't you ? but i bet you figured you could n't get through the door without those kids with you . ridge : you do n't have a clue what my relationship is with brooke . nick : i do n't . i just do n't see the attraction . [ ridge laughs ] ridge : well , i 'll tell you . brooke and i were going to be married . and , eventually , we will be . because i do n't think she 's gon na turn her back on everything we 've meant to each other . nick : i do n't know , forrester , she may surprise you . what 's the point of her looking backwards when she has so much to look forward to ? karen : good afternoon , mr. marone . massimo : good to see you , karen . karen : have a good flight . jackie : oh , massimo -- massimo , you ca n't be serious . this is -- this is a private plane . massimo : you want to be swept off your feet , i guarantee that your feet will not touch the ground for the rest of the day . jackie : we 're just gon na fly around ? massimo : or we could stick to my original plan . jackie : which was ? massimo : i want to take you to dinner . i know this intimate little bistro which is near the wharf in san francisco . pilot : excuse me , mr. marone ? massimo : yes , captain ? pilot : we 've been cleared for takeoff . will there be any changes to your flight plan today ? massimo : it 's up to the lady . pilot : san francisco , ma'am ? jackie : oh , hell , why not ? pilot : excellent . enjoy your flight . massimo : your wish is my command . [ jackie laughs ] jackie : oh , massimo marone , you 're out of your mind . massimo : you used to like that . jackie : well , i did n't say i did n't . massimo : so , you approve of the arrangements ? jackie : it 's not exactly a spontaneous road trip to the country , but -- massimo : well , it is a little early for dinner . perhaps we could stop off at napa , have a nice glass of wine and take a little stroll around the vineyard . and then maybe -- just maybe , we can find a secluded spot overlooking the valley and toast our auspicious reunion . jackie : we could really do that , could n't we ? massimo : i could do anything you want . what ? jackie : i just -- i ca n't believe that we 're actually sharing this moment , that i 'm with you . massimo : i can make it better . jackie : i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry , massimo . i 'm just -- not quite ready for that . massimo : it 's all right . not to worry . you are worth waiting for . bridget : you want me to live here ? stephanie : well , if you 'd like to . bridget : you want to keep an eye on me , right ? stephanie : no . if you 're concerned about privacy , take the guest house . bridget : did dad put you up to this ? stephanie : he does n't know anything about it . bridget : so , you 're serious about this ? stephanie : i think we could both use some company . bridget : okay , you do n't have to make it look like i 'm doing some kind of a huge favor here . stephanie : you will be . bridget : ridge and i are gon na stay away form each other . you do n't have to worry about . stephanie : i know . i 'm lonely . this is n't exactly how i pictured this all coming about . i thought that there would lots of family gatherings , birthdays , holidays , christmas , kids here all the time . but with eric gone , it 's pretty empty . bridget : i know what you mean . this is n't exactly how i thought my life was going to be either . stephanie : you did the right thing . bridget : it does n't hurt to hear it . you know , i could probably use all the support i can get right now . so if you 're serious about wanting a roommate -- stephanie : you 'll do it ? bridget : what 's a family for if you ca n't depend on each other ? stephanie : yes . clink - a - dink . [ both laugh ] ridge : so you think you can offer brooke more than i can , huh ? nick : it 's not about quantity , forrester . it 's about quality . ridge : oh , right , right , right . so floating around a little dinghy is gon na be a lot more rewarding for her than raising a family with me , huh ? nick : you 're just never gon na see it , are you ? ! ridge : see what ? nick : the possibility that brooke could be happy with somebody other than you . ridge : oh , she 's enjoying herself all right . oh , yeah . you know , hanging out with a guy she has no attachment to , no strings , no commitment . and after everything she and i 've been though the last while , i can see where it would be a bit of a relief really . yeah . but trust me , it 's not gon na be long before the novelty wears off . nick : oh , i got you . 'cause you 've seen this act before , right ? ridge : yeah . nick : but do n't you think the novelty of this cat and mouse game you two have been playing for years may be wearing off , too ? oh , that was quick . brooke : steffy wants her jacket . ridge : how are the kids ? brooke : they 're watching a dvd , and they 're fine . ridge : good . brooke : is everything all right ? nick : peachy . ridge : ducky . nick : yeah . i got ta get going . brooke : all right . well , thanks for coming over . sorry for all the distractions . nick : oh , it 's all right . maybe we 'll make it up with a dinner down the road , huh ? brooke : i 'd like that . nick : okay . brooke : well , i better get this upstairs . nick : forrester , i know you think this is a repeat performance , you 've seen this before . but i 'm the real deal , pal . you better use your kids , use your history and everything you 've got . you 're gon na need it .Summarize.[/INST]nick & brooke are lounging by the pool trying to spend a day together . first thing you know here comes ridge and his kids ready for a swim ! his excuse was he was having pool problems so he did n't think brooke would mind them using hers . he also says something like , `` am i interrupting something ? `` nick thinks hope should be taken inside since the kids want to play marco polo . brooke says hope 's been sleeping , so ridge says they need to keep it ( their voices ) down . brooke asks the kids if they want popsicles . they all do so she takes all the kids inside while telling nick & ridge to behave while she 's gone . then it 's the battle of the sexes as they put each other down like they 're in competition to get brooke . ridge feels she is enjoying her time with nick 'cause he does n't have a commitment with her , and nick feels she does n't want ridge 'cause she 's tired of the cat and mouse games . brooke enters the conversation , and nick says he needs to go but will make a dinner date with her later since their alone time was interrupted . she leaves again . he tells ridge that he better use everything he 's got ( family , $ , kids ) to get brooke back 'cause he 's going to need it . nick says he is `` the real deal ! `` then we see stephanie sitting at the table talking to bridget . she 's glad bridget is feeling better . bridget mentions ridge . stephanie was n't going to talk about him , but since she brought his name up she feels like bridget needs a social life with family and friends and stay away from him . stephanie thinks she wanted ridge 'cause of the way brooke always pictured him and she wanted that ( something she never had ) . they chat for a while and stephanie talks bridget into moving in with her . they 're both happy ! we also see massimo romancing jackie with his sweet talk . they discuss their past and he wants to take her on a romantic getaway . she accepts and they aboard a private plane . she 's pretty speechless about this , esp . when he says he wants to fly her to a bistro in san francisco . the pilot confirms the flight plans . jackie gives the `` go ahead `` . the pilot leaves . massimo continues to romance jackie with words then tries to kiss her . he wants her to have whatever she wants . she says she 's not ready for that yet ( kisses and more ) . he says he 'll wait as long as it takes 'cause she 's worth it !</s> | 4,645 |

why are you hiding from katie and her new husband ? oh ! will : i do n't believe this . so , gwen 's name can be on all the accounts , we can share the money ? barbara : that 's for you to decide , will . jessica : i need you to sign here as well . barbara : would you like to explain to him how this works ? jessica : of course . of course you wo n't be getting the money all at once . the fund will be transferred in installments . that 's for tax purposes , among other things . this is the first installment . after that , the money will be transferred in regular payments . barbara : do you think that 's enough to start with ? will : um , yeah . we can make that work . barbara : and if you ever need more cash , there 's a mechanism in place , right , jess ? jessica : that 's correct . if you need more cash for any reason , just call me and i 'll walk you through the procedure . will : but this much is mine right now . it 's not like you 're holding onto it until i get my diploma ?

casey : that 's her job . jade : well , do they have any leads ? casey : i did n't ask . jade : well , they 're gon na keep questioning people , right ? i mean , talking to the witnesses . the police are n't giving up yet , are they ? casey : what 's it to you ? jade : i know that this a sore subject , casey , but i think i know who set that fire . [ maddie remembering ] casey : come on , it 'll be fun . tom : dusty , i will make this as easy on you as i can , but i need your testimony . dusty : no . emily goes loose . cass : your honor , may we approach again , please ? judge : where are we ? cass : without donovan , he 's got nothing to corroborate any physical evidence he allegedly has . no case . judge : mr. hughes , is that right ? paul : dusty , look , i know you 're trying to do what jennifer wanted . but emily could snap at any moment . i mean , look at what she did to you . nobody saw that coming . she could snap again , and this time an innocent child would be hurt . dusty : the same way you kept johnny away from your sister ? paul : well , yeah , but -- i mean , i 've learned -- i do n't know , dusty , it 's not the same to me somehow . dusty : it 's done . judge : gentlemen , make your motions . cass : your honor , given these latest developments , we respectfully request that the charges against ms . stewart be dropped . judge : counselor ? tom : without mr . donovan 's corroborating testimony , we would choose not to proceed at this time . judge : the charges against emily stewart are hereby dismissed . the defendant is free to go . paul : wait ! no , no , no , you ca n't just let her walk ! judge : order ! paul : you have to lock her up ! judge : bailiff ? paul : she shot me . and i want her arrested for that ! she did , emily shot me ! cass : oh , come on . paul : what , you do n't believe me ? look ! emily wanted me dead , and she damn near got her wish ! announcer : coming up on `` as the world turns `` -- simon : i 'm back here in oakdale to settle down -- for good . lucinda : or until you can win katie back ? maddie : no ! no ! casey : maddie -- maddie ! maddie : do n't touch me ! do n't touch me ! do n't touch me ! do n't touch me ! ( acoustic guitar playing throughout ) cass : is this true ? to me , not them , not out loud , say nothing , just shake your head or nod . oh , lovely . not one word . your honor , whatever wild , outlandish claims mr . ryan might choose to make -- judge : ms. stewart shot you ? paul : yes , emily shot me and everyone in this room knows that . judge : and to think , my day started off on the boring side . go on . cass : your honor , this is not the proper forum for this . judge : this started out as a competency hearing . shooting a man is relevant . emily : no , but he 's only trying to take my baby away . cass : emily -- emily : that 's why he 's bringing it up now ! cass : sit down . emily : why ? cass : your honor , my client is right . mr. ryan is trying to smear her . paul : smear her ? she shot me ! look ! judge : we see the scar , mr . ryan , enough . counselor , is this true ? and if so , why am i the last to know ? should n't this be in the defendant 's file ? should n't there be charges ? tom : it 's not quite that simple , your honor . at the time mr . ryan was shot , he was a fugitive from the law . but he did n't report the shooting . he , in fact , staged his own death . by the time he was found , he was claiming the gunshot wound was self - inflicted . he never pressed charges . paul : exactly , i went easy on emily and look what happened . she kidnapped and nearly killed another man . even if dusty wants her to go free , i do n't ! she could hurt somebody else . i want her arrested for shooting me ! judge : fine , fine . go to the police and swear out a complaint . paul : no ! i want it done now . judge : that 's not the procedure . paul : procedure ? look , i swear to you , she is a dangerous woman . she does n't belong on the streets . meg : paul , it 's okay . judge : counselor ? tom : obviously we agree that ms . stewart needed to be held . she had already confessed to her other crimes and was ready to plead guilty an hour ago . cass : because she felt trapped , your honor , and she was hoping to receive mental health care , not because she felt criminally culpable . judge : okay , enough . i get the drift . everybody pipe down ! is there any supporting evidence for this claim that you can present ? anybody here who can testify for you ? paul : absolutely . meg snyder . [ lucinda laughing ] simon : oh , great , yeah . i 'm glad you find it funny . lucinda : no , it 's not that funny . simon : no , i know , mike and a certain heiress definitely did not . and not once -- not once has he thanked me for saving katie 's life . lucinda : i find it very hard to believe that you could not differentiate between a luxury resort hotel and a barren wasteland . simon : i know , it 's strange . like , in the last minute , my outback skills seemed to have failed me . lucinda : oh , yeah . simon : look , at any rate , the happy couple 's home . they do n't want to be bothered . lucinda : but you followed them ? simon : i did n't follow them . no , i came back to oakdale -- to see you . lucinda : that is utterly shameless . simon : shameless , but true . i 'm looking for a business partner . and since you wo n't have me any other way -- lucinda : that 's not true . you know , i 'm always looking for a nice bit of corporate arm candy . simon : i 'm a little too well - funded for that sort of thing these days .

i 'd much rather go home and be alone with you . mike : let 's go . katie : let 's go ! lucinda : what is going on ? simon : all right . all right , i 'm telling you -- i 'm telling you the utter truth here , i 'm not here for katie . i am back here in oakdale to settle down -- for good . lucinda : for good ? or you can win katie back ? jessica : here 's the account information . will , your name is the only name on it at the moment , but if you want to add gwen , that wo n't be a problem . or if you 'd like to take some of the cash and set up a separate account , that would n't be difficult either . most importantly , this is the trust officer at the bank , he 's really looking forward to meeting you . he is incredibly smart , great at investments and money management . his only job is to look out for your interests . so , before you buy that mansion on lake michigan or any other extravagant , give him a call . will : okay . jessica : any other questions ? will : no , i 'm good . gwen ? gwen : i -- i 'm good . jessica : good ! barbara : thank you so much , jess . i 'll walk you out , all right ? jessica : my pleasure . have a good day . will : thank you . gwen : thank you . thank you very much . thank you . wait , we just got , like , punk 'd , right ?

i do n't really want a theater , though , because we do n't have any place to put it . what -- i do n't -- what do you do with money , anyways ? will : what do you want to do ? tell me , anything . gwen : i guess i could go online to a music store and buy every album that i ever wanted . will : why not ? gwen : okay , we have to stop . will : stop what ? i 'm not seeing the problem here . gwen : i -- it -- no , it 's just -- i ca n't believe that i can actually get , like , a new guitar . will : yeah , two new guitars . gwen : okay , what about you ? will : a car . gwen : yeah , uh - huh , we could . will : we can get you a car to match your outfit . and a recording studio , you know , in home . gwen : we could , yes , if we had a home . will : well , that 's next on the list . a place of our own . gwen : okay , all right , with a space for you , too . i get my own recording studio and you get a studio for whatever it is that you want to do . will : and a room for johnny to play in when he comes over . gwen : definitely . will : and maybe in some time , we could start a charity foundation in jennifer 's name . gwen : that 's a really good idea . will : yeah , for sick kids . you know , like johnny was . gwen : she would like that . this is , like , beyond amazing . oh my god ! will : yeah . gwen : okay , i have to go . i 'm gon na be late for work . will : you do n't have to go to work . you do n't have to work again . gwen : okay , i do n't have to , but i want to . i 'll always want to work . are you gon na keep up with school ? will : yeah , i 'm definitely gon na get my diploma . there 's enough rich morons in the world . gwen : hey , we can go to college . i mean , i know we did n't apply anywhere because we did n't have the money . but , you know , we could probably still get into oakdale u . will : you get the applications , we 'll sign up . gwen : okay -- okay , i got ta go or i 'll miss the bus . will : call a cab . and then we 're gon na celebrate when you get home . gwen : all right , movie and popcorn . i love you . will : i love you . gwen : this is , like , incredible . i was just worried about getting through the summer , you know , without will having to get another job . but this is -- this is , like , beyond . i -- barbara : well , it 's one of the perks of being my child -- i do n't want will to ever have to worry about money again . gwen : thank you for making his life so much easier . barbara : you 're a good girl , gwen . you make my son happy . gwen : i hope i do for a very long time . me , too . jade : see you later . lia : hey , i do n't really have to go . casey : you know , gwen and i have a lot of work to do . lia : okay , well , i 'll just make some calls until you 're done . i just have to get my phone charger out of the car . i 'll be back . oh , my god ! my car ! look , maddie is destroying it ! casey : just , don't . stay here , i 'll handle . casey : fun . fun . fun . fun .

he 's going to let emily go . meg : we do n't know that . he could want emily in jail for life . paul : meg , you know him . what do you think he 's going to do ? meg : i ca n't tell . but if he tries to let her off the hook , we 'll deal . judge : okay , let 's have it . first , ms . stewart will enter a plea . ms. stewart ?

emily : mother , this is what i 've been hoping for all along . he loved jennifer , and she wanted this . susan : paul loved jen -- emily : it 's not the same . susan : then why wo n't dusty even look at you ? cass : my client had n't formally entered a plea . she has the right to change her mind . tom : so , you really want to take your chances with a jury ? really ? i mean , even if dusty is here to tell us all that he 's forgiven emily , there 's still evidence . judge : okay , the deal you two had is obviously off the table , correct ? so , let 's step back and set a trial date . a plea has been entered , and we 're proceeding . i 'll expect filings by -- dusty : your honor ! i want to be heard . judge : and you will be , mr . donovan . now that a trial 's been set , you can testify and then you can give a victim 's impact statement -- dusty : no , no , no , no , no . i do n't want a trial . judge : that 's not up to you , mr . donovan . the district attorney has a case . he can still present it . dusty : no , you wo n't go to trial with me . i 'm done . tom : dusty , let 's talk after the hearing . dusty : no , no , no . i 'm done talking . i 'm done with all of it . tom : you need to decide this , then . dusty : you go to trial , you go without my testimony . you understand ? it 's over . jade : what 's your problem ? maddie : who says i have one ? jade : bad move . maddie : what ? i have n't done anything . jade : you 're not watching casey and lia ? maddie : i saw them , but i was n't watching them . casey and i broke up , so , whatever -- jade : uh huh . maddie : why are you hanging around here for ? jade : i work here . i came here to set things up and open up . we 're lucky this place did n't burn to the ground . maddie : we ? jade : everybody . especially the person who set the fire . maybe the cops will go easy on them . maddie : i hope not . jade : you 're a real freak for punishment , are n't you ? i 'll see you around . [ jade clears throat ] sorry . i have to get set up for tonight . casey : no problem . lia : hey , you want to go somewhere ? casey : like -- ? lia : i do n't know . someplace we can be alone . casey : you know what , jade 's right . if we 're going to open tonight , i need to make sure the sound system 's working , so -- lia : i wonder if that 's why she did it . casey : what ? lia : maddie . i mean , if she wanted to punish you , what better way to do it than set a fire . i mean , you love this job . casey : lia , back off . maddie did not start the fire . lia : i 'm just -- i 'm worried about you , okay ? will : i 'm getting my trust fund ? barbara : yes . will : really ? barbara : yes , really . and i 'm sorry it took so long , but there were a lot of conditions that had to be adjusted in order for you to get early access , and i had no idea there was so much paperwork involved , but honey -- i 've done it . it was good for me . i needed to focus on something . will : great . gwen : yeah , you should stay busy , barbara . it 'll be good for you . barbara : over here , jess . now , jessica has everything with her , and assuming everything 's in order -- will : we 're signing papers today ?

barbara : yes , honey . will : what 's the catch ? jessica : there is no catch . will : no , i get it , like , when i 'm 50 , you know -- or she picks out my clothes and my career for -- barbara : i deserve that . jessica : will , you 're getting your trust fund . right now . so , as of today , you 're going to have a lot of your friends eating their hearts out . lucinda : you think i missed you ? well , yes , as a matter of fact -- you know , somebody should keep their eyes on you at all times , as a public service . simon : well , i missed you too . lucinda : yeah . simon : and i heard about lily . i 'm sorry . lucinda : oh , yeah . but she 's going to be back on her feet . i 'm determined . simon : good . then it 'll happen . in the meantime , if i can help you , if you need anything , absolutely . lucinda : thank you , thank you . well , look . you 've brought sincere simon back to town . oh , what is going to befall us ? what is going to happen ? what are you here for ? why did you lure me to this bar ? simon : lure you ? no . this is all completely innocent . i just want to buy you a drink . lucinda : oh , because i 'm one of the few people left in town that you have n't bilked ? simon : one of the few who appreciated a fellow -- entrepreneur . lucinda : entrepreneur ? you know , that 's what 's wrong with the french . they have no word for entrepreneur . so , what is this latest caper ?

lucinda : no , it 's surprisingly empty . lisa needs more customers . mike : i think everyone 's in the dining room . katie : actually , we have reservations , so -- lucinda : go ahead . go ahead . katie : good to see you . mike : bye . lucinda : have fun . enjoy yourselves . i would 've looked for you behind a potted palm , but there was n't one big enough for your ego . simon : thank you for not telling them i was here . lucinda : well , it 's a temporary reprieve , simon . so , tell me now . what 's going on ? why are you hiding from katie and her new husband ? oh ! will : i do n't believe this . so , gwen 's name can be on all the accounts , we can share the money ? barbara : that 's for you to decide , will . jessica : i need you to sign here as well . barbara : would you like to explain to him how this works ? jessica : of course . of course you wo n't be getting the money all at once . the fund will be transferred in installments . that 's for tax purposes , among other things . this is the first installment . after that , the money will be transferred in regular payments . barbara : do you think that 's enough to start with ? will : um , yeah . we can make that work . barbara : and if you ever need more cash , there 's a mechanism in place , right , jess ? jessica : that 's correct . if you need more cash for any reason , just call me and i 'll walk you through the procedure . will : but this much is mine right now . it 's not like you 're holding onto it until i get my diploma ? barbara : honey , you know that i 'm hoping you 're gon na finish high school , but that money is yours . you decide how to use it . jessica : will , i 'm gon na need your signature as well . will : wait . barbara : what , what ? will : i ca n't , this is just so weird . i do n't even know what to ask , but there has to be a catch . gwen : i believe her . barbara : why thank you . listen to that smart girl you married , all right ? will : no strings , no surprises ? barbara : no strings . oh , but there is something i want . will : what ? barbara : be happy . both of you . jade : your grandmother called . she wanted to know if the sound system was okay . casey : it seems to be . jade : it 's funny , in here , it 's like the fire did n't even happen . casey : yeah . jade : so , is your mom gon na arrest whoever did this ? casey : that 's her job . jade : well , do they have any leads ? casey : i did n't ask . jade : well , they 're gon na keep questioning people , right ? i mean , talking to the witnesses . the police are n't giving up yet , are they ? casey : what 's it to you ? jade : i know that this a sore subject , casey , but i think i know who set that fire . [ maddie remembering ] casey : come on , it 'll be fun . tom : dusty , i will make this as easy on you as i can , but i need your testimony . dusty : no . emily goes loose . cass : your honor , may we approach again , please ? judge : where are we ? cass : without donovan , he 's got nothing to corroborate any physical evidence he allegedly has . no case . judge : mr. hughes , is that right ? paul : dusty , look , i know you 're trying to do what jennifer wanted . but emily could snap at any moment . i mean , look at what she did to you . nobody saw that coming . she could snap again , and this time an innocent child would be hurt . dusty : the same way you kept johnny away from your sister ? paul : well , yeah , but -- i mean , i 've learned -- i do n't know , dusty , it 's not the same to me somehow . dusty : it 's done . judge : gentlemen , make your motions . cass : your honor , given these latest developments , we respectfully request that the charges against ms . stewart be dropped . judge : counselor ? tom : without mr . donovan 's corroborating testimony , we would choose not to proceed at this time . judge : the charges against emily stewart are hereby dismissed . the defendant is free to go . paul : wait ! no , no , no , you ca n't just let her walk ! judge : order ! paul : you have to lock her up ! judge : bailiff ? paul : she shot me . and i want her arrested for that ! she did , emily shot me ! cass : oh , come on . paul : what , you do n't believe me ? look ! emily wanted me dead , and she damn near got her wish ! announcer : coming up on `` as the world turns `` -- simon : i 'm back here in oakdale to settle down -- for good . lucinda : or until you can win katie back ? maddie : no ! no ! casey : maddie -- maddie ! maddie : do n't touch me ! do n't touch me ! do n't touch me ! do n't touch me ! ( acoustic guitar playing throughout ) cass : is this true ? to me , not them , not out loud , say nothing , just shake your head or nod . oh , lovely . not one word . your honor , whatever wild , outlandish claims mr . ryan might choose to make -- judge : ms. stewart shot you ? paul : yes , emily shot me and everyone in this room knows that . judge : and to think , my day started off on the boring side . go on . cass : your honor , this is not the proper forum for this . judge : this started out as a competency hearing . shooting a man is relevant . emily : no , but he 's only trying to take my baby away . cass : emily -- emily : that 's why he 's bringing it up now ! cass : sit down . emily : why ? cass : your honor , my client is right . mr. ryan is trying to smear her . paul : smear her ? she shot me ! look ! judge : we see the scar , mr . ryan , enough . counselor , is this true ? and if so , why am i the last to know ? should n't this be in the defendant 's file ? should n't there be charges ? tom : it 's not quite that simple , your honor . at the time mr . ryan was shot , he was a fugitive from the law . but he did n't report the shooting . he , in fact , staged his own death . by the time he was found , he was claiming the gunshot wound was self - inflicted . he never pressed charges . paul : exactly , i went easy on emily and look what happened . she kidnapped and nearly killed another man . even if dusty wants her to go free , i do n't ! she could hurt somebody else . i want her arrested for shooting me ! judge : fine , fine . go to the police and swear out a complaint . paul : no ! i want it done now . judge : that 's not the procedure . paul : procedure ? look , i swear to you , she is a dangerous woman . she does n't belong on the streets . meg : paul , it 's okay . judge : counselor ? tom : obviously we agree that ms . stewart needed to be held . she had already confessed to her other crimes and was ready to plead guilty an hour ago . cass : because she felt trapped , your honor , and she was hoping to receive mental health care , not because she felt criminally culpable . judge : okay , enough . i get the drift . everybody pipe down ! is there any supporting evidence for this claim that you can present ? anybody here who can testify for you ? paul : absolutely . meg snyder . [ lucinda laughing ] simon : oh , great , yeah . i 'm glad you find it funny . lucinda : no , it 's not that funny . simon : no , i know , mike and a certain heiress definitely did not . and not once -- not once has he thanked me for saving katie 's life . lucinda : i find it very hard to believe that you could not differentiate between a luxury resort hotel and a barren wasteland . simon : i know , it 's strange . like , in the last minute , my outback skills seemed to have failed me . lucinda : oh , yeah . simon : look , at any rate , the happy couple 's home . they do n't want to be bothered . lucinda : but you followed them ? simon : i did n't follow them . no , i came back to oakdale -- to see you . lucinda : that is utterly shameless . simon : shameless , but true . i 'm looking for a business partner . and since you wo n't have me any other way -- lucinda : that 's not true . you know , i 'm always looking for a nice bit of corporate arm candy . simon : i 'm a little too well - funded for that sort of thing these days . [ lucinda laughing ] mike : i reserved a table . maitre d ' : i know , and we 're very sorry , sir . but people are lingering longer than we expected . please , drinks are on the house . we 'll call you as soon as there 's a table . katie : thank you . mike : i 'm sorry , baby . katie : it 's okay . mike : i just -- i wanted one perfect meal . katie : and i wanted one perfect cruise . but nobody 's throwing up or falling overboard yet , so you 're doing better than me . mike : well , i guess we could have our champagne here . katie : truth ? i 'd much rather go home and be alone with you . mike : let 's go . katie : let 's go ! lucinda : what is going on ? simon : all right . all right , i 'm telling you -- i 'm telling you the utter truth here , i 'm not here for katie . i am back here in oakdale to settle down -- for good . lucinda : for good ? or you can win katie back ? jessica : here 's the account information . will , your name is the only name on it at the moment , but if you want to add gwen , that wo n't be a problem . or if you 'd like to take some of the cash and set up a separate account , that would n't be difficult either . most importantly , this is the trust officer at the bank , he 's really looking forward to meeting you . he is incredibly smart , great at investments and money management . his only job is to look out for your interests . so , before you buy that mansion on lake michigan or any other extravagant , give him a call . will : okay . jessica : any other questions ? will : no , i 'm good . gwen ? gwen : i -- i 'm good . jessica : good ! barbara : thank you so much , jess . i 'll walk you out , all right ? jessica : my pleasure . have a good day . will : thank you . gwen : thank you . thank you very much . thank you . wait , we just got , like , punk 'd , right ?

i do n't really want a theater , though , because we do n't have any place to put it . what -- i do n't -- what do you do with money , anyways ? will : what do you want to do ? tell me , anything . gwen : i guess i could go online to a music store and buy every album that i ever wanted . will : why not ? gwen : okay , we have to stop . will : stop what ? i 'm not seeing the problem here . gwen : i -- it -- no , it 's just -- i ca n't believe that i can actually get , like , a new guitar . will : yeah , two new guitars . gwen : okay , what about you ? will : a car . gwen : yeah , uh - huh , we could . will : we can get you a car to match your outfit . and a recording studio , you know , in home . gwen : we could , yes , if we had a home . will : well , that 's next on the list . a place of our own . gwen : okay , all right , with a space for you , too . i get my own recording studio and you get a studio for whatever it is that you want to do . will : and a room for johnny to play in when he comes over . gwen : definitely . will : and maybe in some time , we could start a charity foundation in jennifer 's name . gwen : that 's a really good idea . will : yeah , for sick kids . you know , like johnny was . gwen : she would like that . this is , like , beyond amazing . oh my god ! will : yeah . gwen : okay , i have to go . i 'm gon na be late for work . will : you do n't have to go to work . you do n't have to work again . gwen : okay , i do n't have to , but i want to . i 'll always want to work . are you gon na keep up with school ?

[ scene_break ] brian : be careful what you say . people could overhear and misunderstand . luke : you mean , find out about who you really are , instead of who you 're pretending to be ? brian : this is between my wife and me . luke : yeah . but your wife is also my grandmother . and seeing you lying to her turns my stomach . you 're conning her . brian : first of all , no one cons lucinda walsh . and secondly , i have never asked her for a thing . i 'm the one who insisted on a pre - nup , if you 'll remember . luke : yeah . but you wo n't touch her . you wo n't love her . how can this marriage be good for her ? brian : i love her ! i love her with all of my heart . now listen to me , luke . the mastectomy hit her really hard . she puts on a good show of being active . but in actuality , she 's been shutting herself down . she 's hiding away in this house . and that 's not good for her . that 's why i insisted on taking her out tonight . luke : yeah , but if grandmother wants to stay in and spend the evening with her so - called wonderful husband , then you should just do that . brian : i am a good husband . and my choices , including when and where we celebrate new year 's , are always based upon what 's best for lucinda . luke : not always . brian : i thought we were past that . luke : as long as my grandmother was happy , it was none of my business . but she sure did n't look happy tonight . brian : we had a disagreement . you and noah have had a few of those , as i recall . luke : she 's not stupid , brian . if you 're not sleeping with her , she 's going to figure out that something 's wrong . brian : the only thing that 's wrong is that you interjected yourself into a private matter between my wife and me . do n't do it again . [ scene_break ] alison : yeah , i found the car . is there anything else that might -- okay , a rubber ducky in the tub . i 'll make sure to hide that . okay -- do you have someplace warm to hang out with johnny ? are you sure you 're going to be okay tonight ? okay , i 'll call you and let you know when it 's safe to come back . okay , bye . casey , i 've been thinking , and i really think that -- what are you doing ? casey : waiting for you . i freaked you out ? alison : kind of . casey : is n't this what you wanted ? alison : yeah , i thought we were going to take our time and work up to it . casey : yeah , we can . but by the way you kissed me before , i just thought you were ready to rock and roll . alison : not as ready as you are . look , i 'm going to go to the -- casey : hey , take your time . alison : what about the dinner with your parents and your date ? casey : i called everyone . we have all night . alison ? are you okay in there ? alison : yeah , just do n't come in . casey : do n't worry , i 'm not getting up from the bed . alison : did you hear that just now ? outside ? maybe you should go out and check it out . casey : maybe later . do you want me to go ? ali , come here .

[ scene_break ] bonnie : i just really do n't want you to turn your back on her . derek : maybe it would be different -- maybe i would be different if i were proud of my life . but i 'm not , bonnie . it would n't be an honor for jade to find out i was her father . if anything , she 'd be ashamed . bonnie : well , now you 're underestimating her . derek : family means something different to me than it does to you . in my experience , those connections always end up being more trouble than they 're worth . so if we 're going to have a nice evening together tonight , we need to table this discussion . bonnie : and talk about what ? like , superbowl ? derek : i thought you 'd never ask . [ scene_break ] jade : i thought you and lucinda were going out for new year 's . brian : that 's what i thought . but it seems i 'll be celebrating solo tonight . happy new year , jade . lucinda : brian ? bri -- oh . have you seen brian ? jade : he just left . honeymoon over ? lucinda : no one invited your opinion , dear . in fact , no one has invited you in this house at all . jade : lily and holden asked me to stay here . lucinda : yes , because they were being kind . so once again , you wormed your way into their household . jade : their household -- not yours . you do n't have anything to say about it . lucinda : lily and holden are starting afresh , they 're starting new . they do not need the likes of you lurking around here causing mischief . jade : hey , what about you ? you think they want their mother - in - law in the next room while they 're trying to save their marriage ? lucinda : i am here because they insisted upon it , because they care about me . whereas you are here because you are a leftover obligation . jade : well , at least i 'm not some pathetic old witch who ca n't even get her own husband to take her out on new year 's eve . [ scene_break ] luke : nice tie . noah : thanks . my boyfriend gave it to me . luke : yeah . well , if that 's so , i 'd have the excuse to do this . who kissed you ? noah : maddie . did you get my flowers ? luke : yeah , yeah . they were great . what was up with that letter ? `` do n't open until 2009 . `` noah : exactly what it says . you do n't get to open that until tomorrow -- when you wake up next to me . luke : so tonight really is the night . noah : finally . luke : dance with me ? oh , what 's the matter , noah ? are you afraid of sticking out in the crowd ? noah : not if it 's with you . brian : scotch , please .

[ scene_break ] alison : there is nothing wrong . i told you that already . casey : about how you thought you want to have sex with me , but no ? alison : right . casey : why not ? alison : because you trust me like nobody else ever has , casey . and i ca n't be with you while -- casey : while what ? why , are you thinking about something else ? someone else ? alison : stop trying to make this into some huge mystery , casey . it 's not ! and can you please , please not tell anybody that you were here with me tonight ? casey : what difference does that make ? alison : because it was a mistake . and i have made too many of those . casey : no , no . that is not it . alison : casey , is your ego so huge that you ca n't believe that i would change my mind about sleeping with you ? casey : i know you , ali . and you 're not going to jump in bed with some guy , without thinking it through . not anymore . so for you to throw yourself at me for one minute and pull away the next -- that does n't make sense . alison : why do you think i 'm hiding some deep , dark secret ? casey : because i am ! i realized tonight that the reason i 've been so weird around maddie , is because i want you . and you want me . and i think we 're both too scared to admit it .

[ scene_break ] alison : there is nothing wrong . i told you that already . casey : about how you thought you want to have sex with me , but no ? alison : right . casey : why not ? alison : because you trust me like nobody else ever has , casey . and i ca n't be with you while -- casey : while what ? why , are you thinking about something else ? someone else ? alison : stop trying to make this into some huge mystery , casey . it 's not ! and can you please , please not tell anybody that you were here with me tonight ? casey : what difference does that make ? alison : because it was a mistake . and i have made too many of those . casey : no , no . that is not it . alison : casey , is your ego so huge that you ca n't believe that i would change my mind about sleeping with you ? casey : i know you , ali . and you 're not going to jump in bed with some guy , without thinking it through . not anymore . so for you to throw yourself at me for one minute and pull away the next -- that does n't make sense . alison : why do you think i 'm hiding some deep , dark secret ? casey : because i am ! i realized tonight that the reason i 've been so weird around maddie , is because i want you . and you want me . and i think we 're both too scared to admit it . [ scene_break ] jade : so then , after lucinda yelled at me -- luke : wait . my grandmother yelled at you ? why ? jade : well , she was angry and alone , and needed someone to blame it on . she started with her usual , about how i 'm not worthy enough to breathe air . but then she said that i was n't invited to stay with you guys . luke : well , that 's not 's true . of course , you were invited . you 're my cousin , we 're family . jade : yeah , and you proved that to me the minute you did n't hesitate to help me . you could 've been caught the cops , and you still never shut the door . unlike some people . luke , if you 're ready to patch things up , i am too . luke : of course i am . jade : so do you want to dance ? luke : ah , yeah . bonnie : excuse me for interrupting . luke : actually , it 's okay . i need to -- i need to go find noah . i 'll be right back . jade : look , i know you 're trying to be nice , but i do n't want to talk about derek . bonnie : okay , okay , we do n't have to . but listen , could you just swear that you do n't take anything that he said tonight personally . jade : how can i ? he does n't even want to know me . that 's pretty personal . bonnie : okay , derek 's bark is worse than his bite . come on , i mean , he found a way to get you out of trouble . he 's really not that bad of a guy . jade : no , lily gave him a big chunk of change to help me . he did n't do it for me . bonnie : i do n't know . maybe he did it to honor your mother . or maybe he 's just a decent guy . but either way , could you just not close that door ? jade : bonnie , that door was never opened . [ scene_break ] alison : i do n't want to hurt you . and i do n't want to lose you , but -- casey : but you have secrets you need to keep to yourself ? that 's okay . alison : really ? casey : well , is it anything that 's going to get you arrested or killed ? alison : probably not . casey : and you 'll tell me everything as soon as you can ? alison : who else ? casey : then yeah . we 're cool . you want to go , get some coffee ? alison : you should go find maddie . casey : there you go . pushing me , always , to do the right thing . alison : you do the same for me . casey : you know , they say the person you ring in the new year 's with is going to be important to you the whole year -- so be careful of who you hang out with at midnight , okay ? alison : you too .

[ knock at door ] kate : eduardo ? vadim : [ groans ] [ knock at door ] kate : it 's -- it 's kate . is everything all right ? nicole : if you 're feeling overwhelmed -- theresa : well , yeah , i am a little bit . but mainly i just do n't feel comfortable asking brady to bankroll our start - up . nicole : why not ? theresa : well , 'cause he 's not working right now , and , nicole , i do n't know if he 's ever gon na work again . and honestly i just -- i just do n't want to stress him out right now , okay ? nicole : theresa , how else are we supposed to get our company off the ground ? theresa : uh , well , if kate agrees to buy us out , then we can just use that cash to , you know , to start from scratch . nicole : no , it 's not enough . theresa : well , then we 'll get loans . nicole : that 's not risky . theresa : well , i do n't want to be overly ambitious , nicole . i mean , if i 've learned anything from the last few weeks it 's that there 's a lot to lose , and i -- i 'm so sorry . no , i 'm -- nicole : it 's okay . theresa : no . nicole : you 're worried about brady . i am too . and it 's comforting to know that daniel 's heart is still beating in his chest . and if anything ever happened to him , honestly , i think i would die . ava : how desperate do you think i am ? hmm ? yesterday , you hated me , and now i 'm supposed to believe that you want me ? steve : we made a child together , ava . how could i hate you ? ava : yeah , but you know what ? you 're still all about kayla . yeah , `` tell me where kayla is . `` that 's all you really want . steve : yeah , i 'm loyal to my family . but you know what ? that child out there is my family too . and that means so are you . ava : well , then i should be able to ask for more than one half - assed kiss . that did not earn my trust . there 's only one thing you could do now that would . steve : what 's that ? ava : you make love to me now and then i 'll tell you where your precious wife is . eve : i 'm not -- i 'm not trying to take your daughter away from you , belle . i 'm just trying to put one foot in front of the other to get through my day . belle : mm - hmm . so are we all . eve : you have no idea what i 'm going through , and , um , you know , i pray to god that you never do . but you ca n't blame me if your daughter is feeling neglected . belle : how dare you . eve : those are her words , not mine . she knows that you chose a fling in las vegas over spending the weekend with her . belle : that is none of your business . eve : look , she needs somebody to talk to . she confided in me -- belle : you do n't know anything about my daughter or what she needs . and speaking of flings , i do n't need to take parenting advice from `` mommie dearest . `` after what you did to paige , you have no business working with impressionable teenagers . so stop trying to use claire to make up for what you did with your own daughter . eve : i learned ... the hardest way possible that blaming other people for your failings as a mother will only push your daughter further away from you . and i hope that you never , ever have to have the kind of regrets that i do . eduardo : uh , just give -- give me -- give me a second . hey . hi . kate : hey . eduardo : hey . kate : is everything okay ? eduardo : yeah , everything 's fine . i 'm , uh -- i 'm good . are you -- are you okay ? everything okay with you ? kate : yeah . no , i was just -- you know , i was gon na ask if you wanted to get a drink , but obviously this probably is n't the right time . so i will let you get back -- eduardo : no , no . no , i would love to get a drink . you know , i just -- i got to -- i got to clean up for a second , so give me 20 minutes . i 'll meet you at club tbd . kate : really ?

steve : joe could come home soon . ava : are n't i worth a few minutes of your valuable time ? steve : do n't you want more than that ? ava : anything would be better than the nothing you 're giving me now . steve : tell me where kayla is and i 'm all yours . ava : oh , i guess we are at another impasse . see , here 's the deal . i have something that you need , or at least you think you do , and you only have something that i want . so who do you think is gon na win ? although you could try cuffing me again . steve : ava , please . just tell me where kayla is and i 'll do anything you want . ava : sure . i will , but i get what i want first . so here 's how you can keep me honest . i still need your help finding my son , so i 'm not gon na screw you over . figuratively at least . you give me a piece of this , hmm , and i will be happy to tell you where kayla is . and then you 're gon na come with me to find our son ... or i 'm gon na tell kayla what you did . so do we have a deal ?

[ knock at door ] kate : eduardo ? vadim : [ groans ] [ knock at door ] kate : it 's -- it 's kate . is everything all right ? nicole : if you 're feeling overwhelmed -- theresa : well , yeah , i am a little bit . but mainly i just do n't feel comfortable asking brady to bankroll our start - up . nicole : why not ? theresa : well , 'cause he 's not working right now , and , nicole , i do n't know if he 's ever gon na work again . and honestly i just -- i just do n't want to stress him out right now , okay ? nicole : theresa , how else are we supposed to get our company off the ground ? theresa : uh , well , if kate agrees to buy us out , then we can just use that cash to , you know , to start from scratch . nicole : no , it 's not enough . theresa : well , then we 'll get loans . nicole : that 's not risky . theresa : well , i do n't want to be overly ambitious , nicole . i mean , if i 've learned anything from the last few weeks it 's that there 's a lot to lose , and i -- i 'm so sorry . no , i 'm -- nicole : it 's okay . theresa : no . nicole : you 're worried about brady . i am too . and it 's comforting to know that daniel 's heart is still beating in his chest . and if anything ever happened to him , honestly , i think i would die . ava : how desperate do you think i am ? hmm ? yesterday , you hated me , and now i 'm supposed to believe that you want me ? steve : we made a child together , ava . how could i hate you ? ava : yeah , but you know what ? you 're still all about kayla . yeah , `` tell me where kayla is . `` that 's all you really want . steve : yeah , i 'm loyal to my family . but you know what ? that child out there is my family too . and that means so are you . ava : well , then i should be able to ask for more than one half - assed kiss . that did not earn my trust . there 's only one thing you could do now that would . steve : what 's that ? ava : you make love to me now and then i 'll tell you where your precious wife is . eve : i 'm not -- i 'm not trying to take your daughter away from you , belle . i 'm just trying to put one foot in front of the other to get through my day . belle : mm - hmm . so are we all . eve : you have no idea what i 'm going through , and , um , you know , i pray to god that you never do . but you ca n't blame me if your daughter is feeling neglected . belle : how dare you . eve : those are her words , not mine . she knows that you chose a fling in las vegas over spending the weekend with her . belle : that is none of your business . eve : look , she needs somebody to talk to . she confided in me -- belle : you do n't know anything about my daughter or what she needs . and speaking of flings , i do n't need to take parenting advice from `` mommie dearest . `` after what you did to paige , you have no business working with impressionable teenagers . so stop trying to use claire to make up for what you did with your own daughter . eve : i learned ... the hardest way possible that blaming other people for your failings as a mother will only push your daughter further away from you . and i hope that you never , ever have to have the kind of regrets that i do . eduardo : uh , just give -- give me -- give me a second . hey . hi . kate : hey . eduardo : hey . kate : is everything okay ? eduardo : yeah , everything 's fine . i 'm , uh -- i 'm good . are you -- are you okay ? everything okay with you ? kate : yeah . no , i was just -- you know , i was gon na ask if you wanted to get a drink , but obviously this probably is n't the right time . so i will let you get back -- eduardo : no , no . no , i would love to get a drink . you know , i just -- i got to -- i got to clean up for a second , so give me 20 minutes . i 'll meet you at club tbd . kate : really ? eduardo : really , yeah . i would love to do that . it 'll be the highlight of my day , believe me . kate : okay , okay . i look forward to it then . eduardo : great . see you there . steve : baby , i 'm all yours ... but not here , not now . ava : why not ? steve : joe could come home soon . ava : are n't i worth a few minutes of your valuable time ? steve : do n't you want more than that ? ava : anything would be better than the nothing you 're giving me now . steve : tell me where kayla is and i 'm all yours . ava : oh , i guess we are at another impasse . see , here 's the deal . i have something that you need , or at least you think you do , and you only have something that i want . so who do you think is gon na win ? although you could try cuffing me again . steve : ava , please . just tell me where kayla is and i 'll do anything you want . ava : sure . i will , but i get what i want first . so here 's how you can keep me honest . i still need your help finding my son , so i 'm not gon na screw you over . figuratively at least . you give me a piece of this , hmm , and i will be happy to tell you where kayla is . and then you 're gon na come with me to find our son ... or i 'm gon na tell kayla what you did . so do we have a deal ? hmm ? kayla : [ grunts ] oh , what ? help ! hello ? somebody ! anybody ! help ! hello ? roman : well , okay . i , uh , just talked to the head of csi . you 're hired . shawn : wow . [ stammers ] i mean , that was fast . roman : and just so you know , it was entirely on the merits of your credentials . i did n't even tell 'em your last name till the decision was made . shawn : wow , that 's -- i really appreciate that . i promise you are not gon na be disappointed . roman : well , i 'm just glad you 're sticking around . it 'll be a huge help to your mom . and i hope this means that , uh , things are going better between you and belle . claire : what was going on between you and eve ? just please do n't tell me you changed your mind about letting me go to the audition . belle : no . claire : okay , then what 's wrong ? belle : honey , you are so talented as a singer , as a student . i mean , you 're great at so many things . claire : mom , i know you do n't want me to try for a career in music , but it 's what i want -- belle : no , i actually think this is the time for you to follow your dreams . you know your father and i support you 100 % , right ? claire : uh , i guess . belle : good . so i was thinking , you know , eve does n't really have much experience teaching , so if you 're really serious about this , i think it would be a really great idea for us to find someone else who might -- claire : wait , no . belle : claire -- claire : no ! belle : okay . claire : mom , why do n't you like her ? belle : it 's not that i do n't like her . it 's that ... your father and i do n't think that she should be overly involved in your personal life . claire : well , she 's not . but wow . you and dad actually agree on something ? belle : we agree on plenty of things . claire : does that mean there 's a chance you guys might actually get back together ? eduardo : only the student can defeat the master . hmm . not sure anyone can call you the master anymore . not after what happened in new orleans with john . if you were looking for redemption here , you 've failed . vadim : they 'll kill me for my incompetence . you might as well just do me in now . eduardo : i got a better idea . you 're gon na run away , vadim . run away and disappear . you 're gon na put all of this insanity behind you just like i have . if you do n't , if you come near john or his family or me and mine , i will kill you . vadim : you will never see me again . eduardo : well , that had better be true . i 'm gon na just make -- i 'm gon na make sure all the right people know who you are and what you look like .

did he happen to mention her name ? luis : no , he did n't give me a name , but i -- i could tell that it was genuine , that -- look , the thing is i think that he wants to help me get sheridan back because he never got over this love of his life that he lost . julian : oh , god , please dott let whitney tell t.c . about her mother and me . eve 's worked so hard to keep her marriage and her family together . t.c . : julian is as phony as they get . if he told you something about , it 's because he wants something . i mean , the man does n't have a decent bone in his body . luis : well , i do n't think so . t.c . : well , i do . i mean , it 's pretty obvious whatever story he told you it was n't true . i mean , what decent woman would get involved with a man like that ? he 's a pig . he 's never had an honest relationship in his life . whitney : all right , daddy , you got to listen to me , ok ? t.c . : oh , baby , i forgot . you want to tell me something . whitney : yes , and it 's very important . t.c . : whitney 's been trying to tell us something all night , something that 's been bothering her . liz : yes , honey . what is so important that it ca n't wait ? whitney : oh . well , what 's important right now is for mom to go with luis and mr . crane to the hospital to see if there 's anything that she can do to help . t.c . : oh , my goodness . we have raised ourself a very wonderful and thoughtful daughter . for all the things that she 's going through right now , to think of someone else that is in more need than she is . eve : then -- then you do n't mind if i go , t.c . ? t.c . : i 'd be happier if julian was n't going along for the ride . luis : well , i 'll make sure he does n't come anywhere near her , t.c . t.c . : enen go . see what you can do to help sheridan . eve : thank you , t.c . i 'll do my best . luis : we really need to get a move on , eve . you know , god only knows what they 're doing to sheridan in there . eve : i 'll get my coat . t.c . : ok , we 'll have dinner some other time . eve : thanks for being so understanding , t.c . oh , my bag -- it 's in the kitchen . t.c . : i 'll get it . liz : you 're awfully good at dodging bullets , are n't you ? but your luck wo n't hold out forever , sister dear . sooner , not later , whitney is going to tell her father the truth . eve : how did my own little sister get to be such a vicious , malicious -- liz : bitch ? everything i am today i owe to you . remember what we learned in bible school ? you reap what you sow . julian : whitney , thank you for not telling your father what you saw tonight . whitney : well , do n't get too excited , ok ? the only reason i did n't tell him is because the timing was n't right , that 's all . julian : then i 'm asking you , please reconsider before you do something you 'll regret for the rest of your life . i swear to you , you do n't know the whole story , your mother 's side . whitney : no , no , leave me alone about this , ok ? because i 'm going to do what i need to do when the time is right . t.c . : i 'll be right there , sweetheart . liz : when are you going to learn that you ca n't gag whitney any more than you can manipulate me ? julian : how can you so revel in your own sister 's pain ? she 's a good woman who 's suffered enough at both of our hands . liz : oh , please . do not compare me to you . julian : somewhere deep down you must have some love for her still . i know i 'll love her as long as i live . liz : julian , you would n't know what love was if it walked up and slapped you in the face . t.c . : sweetheart , good luck at the hospital , ok ? luis , let me know if there 's anything i can do . luis : thank you . i will . t.c . : god knows , i mean , julian crane and alistair -- there 's no telling what he 's up to . now , you get sheridan away from that family as soon as possible . luis : ok . eve , i do n't mean to rush you , but we got to get sheridan out of there before they hurt her more than they already have . sheridan : no . i wo n't let you ! not again ! help ! somebody help me ! no ! help ! no ! no . why ? why are you doing this ? oh ! alistair : that went well . dr. ackland : well , what do you expect , she was going to waltz in here and hop up on the table after everything we 've done to her ? she 's terrified for her mind , if not her life . alistair : as well she should be . hook her up to those electrode wires or whatever they are so we can start the procedure again . and this time make sure you erase any and all memory of luis lopez fitzgerald . dr. ackland : and what if i ca n't ? alistair : then she 'll have to die . sheridan : please , help me . revitalizer ... kay : hey , are you hurt ? miguel : not in the way you mean . i just ca n't stand what charity 's doing to herself . kay : i know , to have so little respect for yourself . it 's really sad . miguel : i mean , there 's got to be something going on that she 's not saying . kay : or maybe she 's tried and you 're just having trouble accepting it .

did he happen to mention her name ? luis : no , he did n't give me a name , but i -- i could tell that it was genuine , that -- look , the thing is i think that he wants to help me get sheridan back because he never got over this love of his life that he lost . julian : oh , god , please dott let whitney tell t.c . about her mother and me . eve 's worked so hard to keep her marriage and her family together . t.c . : julian is as phony as they get . if he told you something about , it 's because he wants something . i mean , the man does n't have a decent bone in his body . luis : well , i do n't think so . t.c . : well , i do . i mean , it 's pretty obvious whatever story he told you it was n't true . i mean , what decent woman would get involved with a man like that ? he 's a pig . he 's never had an honest relationship in his life . whitney : all right , daddy , you got to listen to me , ok ? t.c . : oh , baby , i forgot . you want to tell me something . whitney : yes , and it 's very important . t.c . : whitney 's been trying to tell us something all night , something that 's been bothering her . liz : yes , honey . what is so important that it ca n't wait ? whitney : oh . well , what 's important right now is for mom to go with luis and mr . crane to the hospital to see if there 's anything that she can do to help . t.c . : oh , my goodness . we have raised ourself a very wonderful and thoughtful daughter . for all the things that she 's going through right now , to think of someone else that is in more need than she is . eve : then -- then you do n't mind if i go , t.c . ? t.c . : i 'd be happier if julian was n't going along for the ride . luis : well , i 'll make sure he does n't come anywhere near her , t.c . t.c . : enen go . see what you can do to help sheridan . eve : thank you , t.c . i 'll do my best . luis : we really need to get a move on , eve . you know , god only knows what they 're doing to sheridan in there . eve : i 'll get my coat . t.c . : ok , we 'll have dinner some other time . eve : thanks for being so understanding , t.c . oh , my bag -- it 's in the kitchen . t.c . : i 'll get it . liz : you 're awfully good at dodging bullets , are n't you ? but your luck wo n't hold out forever , sister dear . sooner , not later , whitney is going to tell her father the truth . eve : how did my own little sister get to be such a vicious , malicious -- liz : bitch ? everything i am today i owe to you . remember what we learned in bible school ? you reap what you sow . julian : whitney , thank you for not telling your father what you saw tonight . whitney : well , do n't get too excited , ok ? the only reason i did n't tell him is because the timing was n't right , that 's all . julian : then i 'm asking you , please reconsider before you do something you 'll regret for the rest of your life . i swear to you , you do n't know the whole story , your mother 's side . whitney : no , no , leave me alone about this , ok ? because i 'm going to do what i need to do when the time is right . t.c . : i 'll be right there , sweetheart . liz : when are you going to learn that you ca n't gag whitney any more than you can manipulate me ? julian : how can you so revel in your own sister 's pain ? she 's a good woman who 's suffered enough at both of our hands . liz : oh , please . do not compare me to you . julian : somewhere deep down you must have some love for her still . i know i 'll love her as long as i live . liz : julian , you would n't know what love was if it walked up and slapped you in the face . t.c . : sweetheart , good luck at the hospital , ok ? luis , let me know if there 's anything i can do . luis : thank you . i will . t.c . : god knows , i mean , julian crane and alistair -- there 's no telling what he 's up to . now , you get sheridan away from that family as soon as possible . luis : ok . eve , i do n't mean to rush you , but we got to get sheridan out of there before they hurt her more than they already have . sheridan : no . i wo n't let you ! not again ! help ! somebody help me ! no ! help ! no ! no . why ? why are you doing this ? oh ! alistair : that went well . dr. ackland : well , what do you expect , she was going to waltz in here and hop up on the table after everything we 've done to her ? she 's terrified for her mind , if not her life . alistair : as well she should be . hook her up to those electrode wires or whatever they are so we can start the procedure again . and this time make sure you erase any and all memory of luis lopez fitzgerald . dr. ackland : and what if i ca n't ?

[ stammers ] please . please , sweetheart , just -- just let it be . steffy will be a wonderful mother , and hope will still be in the baby 's life . zoe : wow . you 've somehow managed to justify this horrible thing you 've done . reese : i hate this as much as you do . i am so ashamed that i 've just brought this down on everybody . but as guilty as i am , and as selfish as this is going to sound ... i do not want to go to prison . zoe : i do n't know if i can stay quiet about this . reese : zoe . zoe , wait ! xander : this actually loo -- why are you so upset ? huh ? hey . hey , what 's wrong ? zoe : i got into a fight with my dad . xander : about what ? zoe : him . you know , how stupid and reckless he can be . how sick to death i am of it . why ca n't he just do the right thing ? xander : okay . okay . is this about steffy 's mom ? zoe : her , too . look , are you -- are you doing something ? xander : no . no , i 'm -- i 'm not busy if you -- if you need me . zoe : i need you to come with me . xander : okay . where are we going ? zoe : i need to see steffy . bill : what the hell could i possibly have to do with thorne 's decision to leave katie ? i have n't messed with them at all . wyatt : no , not deliberately . or consciously . you -- you 've been good lately . steady . you know , the kind of father that will can actually look up to . bill : i always have been . wyatt : mm ... bill : [ stammers ] fine . except for a few distracted moments . wyatt : well , a lot of damage happened in those `` few distracted moments , `` dad . enough to have a custody battle . and that was when thorne and katie got married . bill : ah ! you see ? that 's why i said they got married . wyatt : no , that 's not what i 'm saying . i 'm not saying -- bill : that 's exactly what you 're saying . wyatt : the marriage , the love , was real . okay ? but presenting a stable family for will was important at the time . it was to contrast your -- your benign neglect . and , yes , you 've done a whole lot better lately . like , you 're the kind of parent that will needs and deserves . but that does n't go unnoticed by thorne . bill : i do n't give a damn what thorne notices or does n't notice . i do n't need his approval . wyatt : you 're missing my point here . if will can forgive you , katie can , too . she 's accepting of your presence . you guys are co - parenting again , and that 's great . and thorne sees you two and how great you are together , and then suddenly he 's convinced that she 's still in love with you . brooke : thorne actually said that ? he think you 're in love with bill ? katie : yes . donna : have you given him reason ? katie : no ! of course not . donna : you were married to bill . you share a child . katie : yes , and because of that , i will always love him . but not in the way that you think . not in the way that thorne thinks . why are you looking at me like that ? you think i 'm still in love with bill , too ? flo : so , how 'd it go with zoe ? were you able to calm her down ? reese : [ chuckles ] that 's not happening . flo : you have to ! she knows too much ! reese : and whose fault is that ? flo : oh . [ scoffs ] seriously ? you 're -- you 're gon na blame me ? reese : i 'm sorry . i did n't mean that . flo : so what 's she gon na do , reese ? reese : [ sighs ] flo : this is my life , too . i risked everything to help you out of a jam . so if i 'm about to be named accomplice in a kidnapping , you need to tell me so i can get the hell out of here . reese : the truth is , i do n't know what zoe 's gon na do . zoe : thanks for letting us come by on such short notice . xander : uh , no notice , really . steffy : well , i 'm happy for the company , but something tells me you 're here for a reason . zoe : yeah . um ... i just wanted to talk to you about hope 's baby . steffy : beth ? what about her ? - [ narrator ] this is the moisturizer bill : if thorne actually said that katie 's in love with me , then he is scraping the bottom of the barrel for excuses to leave her . i mean , that 's absurd . wyatt : i do n't know . maybe . bill : look , katie and i will always care about each other . as will 's parents . because that 's what our son needs . i 've always preached the importance of family , wyatt . and , yes , i -- i lost my way as leader in that regard , briefly . wyatt : okay . bill : but i am determined to get our family back on track . and that 's why i asked you here today . i need your help . flo : zoe loves you , right ? i mean , y - you 're -- you 're her father . i mean , she 's -- she 's upset with you right now , but she 's not gon na , like , turn you in . right ? reese : i do n't think zoe would go to the police . but ... she may go to phoebe 's mother . brooke : honey ! you 're here . hope : yeah . [ sighs ] seemed like a good idea . brooke : well , only if you 're up for it . hope : well , i 'm trying to get back in the business of living . so , going through the motions , and faking it till i make it . brooke : just do n't overdo it . hope : i actually feel pretty good today . brooke : oh ! that 's good to hear . hope : yeah . heh . phoebe has that effect on me . brooke : phoebe ? hope : yeah . i was , um -- i was just at steffy 's . she 's been really great about letting me spend time with her girls . brooke : do you think that 's a good idea ? hope : that 's the only thing that makes me feel hopeful . you know , that , like , i actually might get on the other side of this with some of my sanity still in tact . holding phoebe , it just ... makes all the pain go away . steffy : i do n't understand . you wanted to see me about hope 's baby ? zoe : um ... losing beth has been so hard for hope . steffy : yeah . yeah , and for liam . my heart breaks for both of them . especially for hope . i lost a child once . it was devastating . and i did n't -- i did n't carry to term . xander : i 'm so sorry you had to go through that . steffy : i did n't know if i 'd be able to recover . so i can only imagine what hope 's going through . zoe : it should n't have happened . there was no reason for hope to lose her baby . steffy : it 's hard to understand why these things happen . [ sighs ] you just missed her , by the way . zoe : hope was here ? steffy : yeah . yeah , she comes over to hang out with the girls . xander : i 'd just imagine that would be a painful reminder , being with them . steffy : yeah . no , i - i get it . i was concerned about that , too . but ... hope seems to find comfort and peace here . especially with phoebe . maybe it 's because phoebe is about the same age as -- as beth . [ sighs ] there 's just been so much sadness in hope since beth died . and when she holds phoebe , it just -- it all seems to slip away . no matter how fussy phoebe is , she makes hope come alive . i do n't know . on one level , it 's -- it 's heartbreaking , yeah , but it 's also really beautiful seeing their connection . zoe : you feel they have a connection between them ? steffy : oh , yeah . i -- i thought that from the moment they met . it 's like i have to remind myself that hope is holding phoebe , not beth . zoe : because hope 's instincts for that child are so intense ? steffy : yeah . yeah , i guess that 's it . zoe : well , uh ... maybe there 's a reason for that . why hope finds so much peace when she hold phoebe . as if she was ... her own daughter . come here , babe . . . . child . this is not my first rodeo , guys . so do n't try to throw one by me . you can't . | zoe says she refuses to believe that she is reese 's excuse for doing something so heinous . and now he has sold that baby to steffy and taylor . he goes on and on what he has always said before . he did it to save zoe as he loves her so much . he is sorry for hope but just let it be . steffy will be a good mother . if zoe tells he will go to prison and life as they know it will never be . it sounds selfish but he does not want to go to prison . she bolts out before he can stop her . wyatt shows up at spencer having been texted by bill to get his butt their asap . before bill starts wyatt tells him this will affect will . thorne has left katie and gone back to paris , annulling the marriage . but while it shocked katie , will seems to be like many kids who are more perceptive than you think they are and he will be okay . bill says he is not surprised at that loser . wyatt tells him there are probably a couple of reasons and one of them is bill . thorne thought katie was still in love with bill . thorne saw the two of them co - parenting and doing better and suddenly he gets this idea that she is still in love with bill . bill scoffs that he was scraping the bottom of the barrel to think of an excuse to leave katie . but he needs wyatt 's help and that is why he called him to come today . | <s>[INST] zoe : i ca n't believe this . you know , i 'm trying to wrap my head around it , but ... reese : it 's hard for me to accept what i did , too . zoe : and yet you still did it . reese : to protect you , zoe . zoe : no . i refuse to be your excuse for something so heinous . you convinced hope that her baby had died so you could sell that child to steffy and taylor . steffy forrester is raising hope 's child . hope deserves to know the truth . hope : she is such perfection . do you know that ? hmm ? bet your mommy tells you that all the time . [ chuckles ] gosh ! she 's so precious . steffy : she 's so comfortable in your arms . hope : [ giggles ] she fits . it 's just like ... well , you know , when they 're this tiny , they 're easy to hold . your auntie hope loves you so much . yeah .

[ sighs ] there 's just been so much sadness in hope since beth died . and when she holds phoebe , it just -- it all seems to slip away . no matter how fussy phoebe is , she makes hope come alive . i do n't know . on one level , it 's -- it 's heartbreaking , yeah , but it 's also really beautiful seeing their connection . zoe : you feel they have a connection between them ? steffy : oh , yeah . i -- i thought that from the moment they met . it 's like i have to remind myself that hope is holding phoebe , not beth . zoe : because hope 's instincts for that child are so intense ? steffy : yeah . yeah , i guess that 's it . zoe : well , uh ... maybe there 's a reason for that . why hope finds so much peace when she hold phoebe . as if she was ... her own daughter . come here , babe . . . . child . this is not my first rodeo , guys . so do n't try to throw one by me . you can't .Summarize.[/INST]zoe says she refuses to believe that she is reese 's excuse for doing something so heinous . and now he has sold that baby to steffy and taylor . he goes on and on what he has always said before . he did it to save zoe as he loves her so much . he is sorry for hope but just let it be . steffy will be a good mother . if zoe tells he will go to prison and life as they know it will never be . it sounds selfish but he does not want to go to prison . she bolts out before he can stop her . wyatt shows up at spencer having been texted by bill to get his butt their asap . before bill starts wyatt tells him this will affect will . thorne has left katie and gone back to paris , annulling the marriage . but while it shocked katie , will seems to be like many kids who are more perceptive than you think they are and he will be okay . bill says he is not surprised at that loser . wyatt tells him there are probably a couple of reasons and one of them is bill . thorne thought katie was still in love with bill . thorne saw the two of them co - parenting and doing better and suddenly he gets this idea that she is still in love with bill . bill scoffs that he was scraping the bottom of the barrel to think of an excuse to leave katie . but he needs wyatt 's help and that is why he called him to come today .</s> | 3,547 |

tonight on global national with kevin newman . gwen : oh , my god , theresa ! what are you doing ? theresa : well -- gwen -- gwen : killing me is not going to solve anything , ok ? theresa : no , killing -- no . gwen : you already stabbed me in the back once . theresa : no , gwen , no , no . i had a medical condition , gwen . i -- i lost my mind . you know this . i would not hurt you . gwen : everyonenonows your m.o . , theresa . everyone knows your m.o . and the police are going to know it was you . just stay away from me . theresa : please , please , i am not going to hurt you , please . gwen : then what are you doing with the knife , theresa ? theresa : i -- i brought it just in case the lock on the door did n't work , and -- and i had to jam it -- gwen : what are you talk -- theresa : but it worked fine , it worked fine , please . i locked the door because i do n't want to be disturbed . i really need to talk to you , gwen , mother to mother , woman to woman . it 's about little ethan , please . gwen : god , theresa , do you never give up ?

she caused me to lose my job , she caused my family to lose our home . you know this . gwen : god , theresa , this is so typical of you . you blame everyone else for your problems but yourself . i do n't think the court made a mistake . i think they 're right . you are not fit to raise little ethan . theresa : no , i am fit , gwen . i love my son . he needs to be with me , and i need to be with him . gwen : oh , theresa , would you just stop it ? look , you lost your son . there is nothing you can do about that now . you should be thinking about what 's best for ttttle ethan , and frankly , you should be thanking me . theresa : thanking you ? how can i thank you for taking my child , gwen ? gwen : would you rather that he was raised by my mother and julian ? because , you know , they want to ship him off to boarding school the first chance they get , and trust me , i know how neglectful they can be . and i know , i truly believe that ethan and i will be better parents to him . theresa : gwen , please , wait . please . i would be the best parent for my child . ok , please , he loves me , all right ? and , you , you 're goi g to have a child of your own soon , too , right ? so you do n't need to take mine from me . gwen : theresa , this is n't what i want . this is what 's best for little ethan . theresa : gwen , i am what 's best for my son . ok , the only reason why i do n't have him is because your mother , she hates me , and she wants to get revenge on me for -- for you losing your baby . gwen : theresa , you are in this bind because you tried to kidnap little ethan twice and you got caught both times . you should be lucky that you are not still in jail . theresa : i know i made mistakes , gwen , i know that i did , but they 're not going to happen again . i promise . gwen : oh , you promise . well . theresa : please , can you talk to your mother ? can you convince her to not press kidnapping charges against me , because then i can get the judge to reconsider my case ? gwen , please , i need your help . can you think how you felt when you lost your child ? gwen : theresa , i think about sarah every single day . theresa : then can you help me , please ? gwen , please , just look at me , please . i am begging you . please , as one mother to another , please , gwen , help me get my child back . antonio : you know , i feel so good to hold you in my arms . i love you so much . sheridan : i love you , too . antonio 's voice : you hear that ? sheridan loves you , not luis . quit worrying . sheridan 's voice : why am i keep having these feelings about luis ? i do n't love him anymore . luis : well , will you do it ? waitress : why not ? i like to live dangerously , and i could always use a few extra bucks . luis : all righty . beth : hey , what did you just ask her to do ? luis : oh , she 's going to distract alistair and then steal the safe key from his pocket . beth 's voice : alistair 's going to kill me for not warning him . julian : eve , what is it ? eve : i thought that we were going to find our son . i was so sure . i ca n't take these disappointments anymore , julian . really , i just ca n't take them . whitney : mom ? julian ? a woman of mystery chad : hey , what 's going on ? whitney : i think i just saw my mother and julian leaving the restaurant just now . chad : well , i did n't see them . whitney : no , i 'm telling you , i could have sworn i just saw them . that was definitely them . chad : baby , baby , you have julian and your mother on the brain . ok , it 's probably somebody that looked like them . besides , julian crane would not eat in a place like this . all right ? whitney : yeah . julian : eve , the roads are wet . you should slow down . you 're very upset . eve : i ca n't stand it , julian ! i ca n't stand it anymore ! for every step that we take towards finding our son , we go back two ! it 's just not fair ! julian : i know . eve : sometimes , i think i 'm losing my mind . julian : no , do n't say that . i mean , i 'm not giving up . i promise you , i will not stop until we find our son . eve , slow down ! antonio : come on , sheridan . what 's wrong ? i can tell you 're worried about something . antonio : sheridan , what 's wrong ? sheridan : nothing . i 'm having a wonderful time . sheridan 's voice : i have to stop these crazy thoughts now . luis : come on , be careful . be smooth and get me that key . alistair : why , thank you , my dear . i do n't think i 've seen you here before . what 's your name ? waitress : lola . alistair : well , lola , the night is young . bring me another . make it a double . lola : of course , mr . crane . oh , clumsy of me . alistair : what are you doing ? fox : theresa 's been gone a while . i wonder what 's keeping her . ethan : i hope gwen 's all right . she 's been gone a while . i better go check on her . ethan : fox . i did n't know you were here tonight . fox : i did n't know you were here , either . ethan : yeah , i thought gwen and i needed a night out . fox : so i hear you two are using a surrogate to try to have another kid , huh ? ethan : yeah , word travels fast in this small town , huh ? fox : i 'm sorry . was it some kind of secret ? ethan : no , no . i guess not . it 's just we kind of want to keep it low key until we 've actually done it . fox : mum 's the word . ethan : thanks . listen , i heard theresa got bailed out of jail . fox : yeah . sheridan and i bailed her out . ethan : really ? fox : mm - hmm . ethan : i thought you had spent your whole trust fund on bailing her out the first time and that sheridan 's assets were frozen . fox : yeah , we figured out a way . ethan : good . that 's -- i 'm glad . she has totally suffered enough . how 's she doing ? fox : how 's she doing ? kind of like you 'd expect , you know . she 's a complete basket case . little ethan 's adoption hearing is tomorrow , but you already knew that , did n't you ? ethan : i wish there was something i could do to help her . fox : you could give her her son back . ethan : fox -- fox : ethan , why are you doing this , anyway ? you know it 's killing her . ethan : the last thing i want to do is hurt theresa . fox : well , you know what ? you already have . what is it with us cranes and near - cranes , anyway , huh ? it 's like we 're cursed when it comes to romance . everybody who falls in love with us ends up getting hurt -- gwen , theresa , mom , luis , and antonio . it 's like we have some kind of evil curse when it comes to love . ethan : the reason that i want to adopt little ethan is that so when gwen and i become his legal guardians , not you and rebecca , i can drop the charges against theresa and give her back her son . well , i hope i 'll be able to make things better for theresa one day . fox : well , what the hell are you going to possibly be able to do ? theresa : please , gwen , help me . please give me my son back . he loves me . he belongs with his mother . gwen : he belongs with people who can take care of him . theresa : gwen , i can take care of him . look , i know that we have had differences in our past , gwen , i understand that you hate me , but please do n't take your hatred of me out on my child . gwen : get up , theresa . theresa : you 're going to have a child of your own soon . you understand the love a mother feels for her child . please , as one mother to another , give me my boy back . if you do this , i swear , i will never come near you and ethan again . i swear . gwen : you know , you almost sound sincere . theresa : i am , gwen . please , i will leave you guys alone . please , i swear . please ? can you say something , gwen ? gwen : you know what ? i have to give you credit , because you almost had me . you almost had me with your begging and your pleading , your sounding so pathetic and miserable . i mean , you actually sound like you believe what you 're saying . theresa : no , i do , gwen . gwen : no , i know you , theresa . i know how your mind works . you make big promises when you 're down , and you may actually believe them at the time , but the minute you get your way , you go back on your word . theresa : not this time . i swear , i promise . gwen : theresa , yes , you will . you always do . ok , you rise up like this phoenix from the ashes all triumphant , full of righteous indignation , ready to attack anyone who comes in your way . and let me tell you , it 's not going to be me , not again , not this time . theresa : gwen , just please , just give me one more chance , please . gwen : theresa , stop it ! just stop it . it 's not going to work . you have ruined my life for the last time . and , no , i am not going to give you back little ethan . he is my son now . theresa : no , gwen , no , no , no , no ! gwen : help me , ethan ! help me ! ethan : is that gwen ? fox : ethan , where 'd she go ? ethan : she went to the ladies ' room . fox : well , so did theresa . ethan : ereresa 's here ? fox : yeah , theresa 's here . i brought her here to try to take her mind off of things . ethan : oh , god . fox : ok . ethan : it 's locked . gwen : get -- ethan -- 9 ° for jaspet in the noon hour . beth : i told you this was crazy . alistair caught her picking his pocket . now what ? luis : i do n't know . sheridan 's voice : why does seeing luis with beth bother me so much ? antonio : sheridan ? sheridan : hmm ? antonio : come on . i just felt you tense up again . what is it ? sheridan : you know , i 'm sorry , but i just feel really tired all of a sudden . can we just goomome ? antonio : yeah , sure . sheridan : ok . lola : mr. crane , you 're hurting me . alistair : what the hell do you think you 're doing ? hank : should n't we try and help her ? god knows what alistair will do . luis : why do n't you just give her a minute , ok ? this girl looks like she can take care of herself . lola : i was just trying to slip my phone number in your pocket . i thought we could get together some time . i find you very attractive . [ alistair chuckles ] alistair : well , why did n't you say so ? just whisper your phone number in my ear ? i have an excellent memory . lola : i ca n't wait . luis : what happened to you ? are you ok ? lola : yeah . well , you owe me a lot more than 100 bucks . the man almost took my arm off . luis : i 'll make it up to you , ok ? i promise . did you get the key ? lola : whatever lola wants , lola gets . luis : god , thank you . i got the key . i got the key . now i 'm going to blow alistair crane sky high . beth 's voice : and i 'm going with him . gwen : get off of me ! get off of me ! fox : theresa , theresa -- ethan : gwen , gwen , gwen , gwen -- gwen : get off of me ! ethan : are you all right ? gwen : she 's insane , ethan . she came in here with a knife . she was threatening me ! she attacked me ! theresa : no , i did not . i came to talk to you , gwen . i came to reason with you to give me my child back , but you are every bit as hateful as your mother . you 're not going to stop until i 'm completely destroyed . gwen : oh , yeah , well , you 're one to talk about being destroyed , huh ? destroying people 's lives ? you 're not happy just destroying your own . you want to destroy little ethan 's , too . theresa , you killed my baby , and then you want little ethan back ? are you crazy ? you are never having him back ! you are never going to have your son back , ever ! ethan : fox , get her out -- get her out of here . theresa : no , i will get my child back , gwen . i will . fox : ok , all right , you will . gwen : honey , please just take me home , ok ? ethan : all right , all right , ok , ok . whitney : ugh . chad : whitney , come on , your mom and julian are n't out here . whitney : but i 'm telling you , it looked just like them , chad . chad : if they were here , they 're long gone . you know , let me take you home . i 'll bet we 'll find your mom and dad chilling by the fire . whitney : ok . eve : i ca n't take it anymore , julian . to get so close to my son and then just have my hopes dashed again , i ca n't ! it 's driving me crazy ! julian : eve , will you please pull over . let me drive . you 're much too upset to be behind the wheel . eve : all right . julian : all right , ease up , slow down , slow down . you 're going too fast . eve : oh , god -- julian : eve , watch out ! | theresa and fox go out to eat , where gwen and ethan also show up . when gwen goes to the powder room , theresa grabs a knife and follows gwen , where she threatens her , then begs her to return little ethan . gwen is not sympathetic to theresa . julian and eve rush to sally chin 's restaurant because of information that their son will be there . it was another of alistair 's pranks to torment them . | <s>[INST] luis : hey , you guys . thanks so much for coming at the last minute . beth : yeah . well , you said it was urgent , and , well , i 'm always ready to help out . hank : yeah , me , too , but whatever it is better be worth me getting dressed up in this monkey suit . luis : oh , yeah , it 's worth it . i found out where alistair keeps all his dirty secrets . beth : what ?

[ phone rings ] man : yes . alistair : god ! what a fool . he fell for it . [ alistair chuckles ] julian : i ca n't believe that detective made such a mistake . e : e : i want very badly to find our son , julian , but these kind of disappointments are devastating . julian : i 'm sorry i 've caused you such heartache . eve : it 's not your fault . you did n't know that it would lead to a dead end . [ phone rings ] julian : hello . alistair : good evening , julian . have you met your son yet ? julian : my s -- you son of a bitch . i should have known you were responsible for this .

she caused me to lose my job , she caused my family to lose our home . you know this . gwen : god , theresa , this is so typical of you . you blame everyone else for your problems but yourself . i do n't think the court made a mistake . i think they 're right . you are not fit to raise little ethan . theresa : no , i am fit , gwen . i love my son . he needs to be with me , and i need to be with him . gwen : oh , theresa , would you just stop it ? look , you lost your son . there is nothing you can do about that now . you should be thinking about what 's best for ttttle ethan , and frankly , you should be thanking me . theresa : thanking you ? how can i thank you for taking my child , gwen ? gwen : would you rather that he was raised by my mother and julian ? because , you know , they want to ship him off to boarding school the first chance they get , and trust me , i know how neglectful they can be . and i know , i truly believe that ethan and i will be better parents to him . theresa : gwen , please , wait . please . i would be the best parent for my child . ok , please , he loves me , all right ? and , you , you 're goi g to have a child of your own soon , too , right ? so you do n't need to take mine from me . gwen : theresa , this is n't what i want . this is what 's best for little ethan . theresa : gwen , i am what 's best for my son . ok , the only reason why i do n't have him is because your mother , she hates me , and she wants to get revenge on me for -- for you losing your baby . gwen : theresa , you are in this bind because you tried to kidnap little ethan twice and you got caught both times . you should be lucky that you are not still in jail . theresa : i know i made mistakes , gwen , i know that i did , but they 're not going to happen again . i promise . gwen : oh , you promise . well . theresa : please , can you talk to your mother ? can you convince her to not press kidnapping charges against me , because then i can get the judge to reconsider my case ? gwen , please , i need your help . can you think how you felt when you lost your child ? gwen : theresa , i think about sarah every single day . theresa : then can you help me , please ? gwen , please , just look at me , please . i am begging you . please , as one mother to another , please , gwen , help me get my child back . antonio : you know , i feel so good to hold you in my arms . i love you so much . sheridan : i love you , too . antonio 's voice : you hear that ? sheridan loves you , not luis . quit worrying . sheridan 's voice : why am i keep having these feelings about luis ? i do n't love him anymore . luis : well , will you do it ? waitress : why not ? i like to live dangerously , and i could always use a few extra bucks . luis : all righty . beth : hey , what did you just ask her to do ? luis : oh , she 's going to distract alistair and then steal the safe key from his pocket . beth 's voice : alistair 's going to kill me for not warning him . julian : eve , what is it ? eve : i thought that we were going to find our son . i was so sure . i ca n't take these disappointments anymore , julian . really , i just ca n't take them . whitney : mom ? julian ? a woman of mystery chad : hey , what 's going on ? whitney : i think i just saw my mother and julian leaving the restaurant just now . chad : well , i did n't see them . whitney : no , i 'm telling you , i could have sworn i just saw them . that was definitely them . chad : baby , baby , you have julian and your mother on the brain . ok , it 's probably somebody that looked like them . besides , julian crane would not eat in a place like this . all right ? whitney : yeah . julian : eve , the roads are wet . you should slow down . you 're very upset . eve : i ca n't stand it , julian ! i ca n't stand it anymore ! for every step that we take towards finding our son , we go back two ! it 's just not fair ! julian : i know . eve : sometimes , i think i 'm losing my mind . julian : no , do n't say that . i mean , i 'm not giving up . i promise you , i will not stop until we find our son . eve , slow down ! antonio : come on , sheridan . what 's wrong ? i can tell you 're worried about something . antonio : sheridan , what 's wrong ? sheridan : nothing . i 'm having a wonderful time . sheridan 's voice : i have to stop these crazy thoughts now . luis : come on , be careful . be smooth and get me that key . alistair : why , thank you , my dear . i do n't think i 've seen you here before . what 's your name ? waitress : lola . alistair : well , lola , the night is young . bring me another . make it a double . lola : of course , mr . crane . oh , clumsy of me . alistair : what are you doing ? fox : theresa 's been gone a while . i wonder what 's keeping her . ethan : i hope gwen 's all right . she 's been gone a while . i better go check on her . ethan : fox . i did n't know you were here tonight . fox : i did n't know you were here , either . ethan : yeah , i thought gwen and i needed a night out . fox : so i hear you two are using a surrogate to try to have another kid , huh ? ethan : yeah , word travels fast in this small town , huh ? fox : i 'm sorry . was it some kind of secret ? ethan : no , no . i guess not . it 's just we kind of want to keep it low key until we 've actually done it . fox : mum 's the word . ethan : thanks . listen , i heard theresa got bailed out of jail . fox : yeah . sheridan and i bailed her out . ethan : really ? fox : mm - hmm . ethan : i thought you had spent your whole trust fund on bailing her out the first time and that sheridan 's assets were frozen . fox : yeah , we figured out a way . ethan : good . that 's -- i 'm glad . she has totally suffered enough . how 's she doing ? fox : how 's she doing ? kind of like you 'd expect , you know . she 's a complete basket case . little ethan 's adoption hearing is tomorrow , but you already knew that , did n't you ? ethan : i wish there was something i could do to help her . fox : you could give her her son back . ethan : fox -- fox : ethan , why are you doing this , anyway ? you know it 's killing her . ethan : the last thing i want to do is hurt theresa . fox : well , you know what ? you already have . what is it with us cranes and near - cranes , anyway , huh ? it 's like we 're cursed when it comes to romance . everybody who falls in love with us ends up getting hurt -- gwen , theresa , mom , luis , and antonio . it 's like we have some kind of evil curse when it comes to love . ethan : the reason that i want to adopt little ethan is that so when gwen and i become his legal guardians , not you and rebecca , i can drop the charges against theresa and give her back her son . well , i hope i 'll be able to make things better for theresa one day . fox : well , what the hell are you going to possibly be able to do ? theresa : please , gwen , help me . please give me my son back . he loves me . he belongs with his mother . gwen : he belongs with people who can take care of him . theresa : gwen , i can take care of him . look , i know that we have had differences in our past , gwen , i understand that you hate me , but please do n't take your hatred of me out on my child . gwen : get up , theresa . theresa : you 're going to have a child of your own soon . you understand the love a mother feels for her child . please , as one mother to another , give me my boy back . if you do this , i swear , i will never come near you and ethan again . i swear . gwen : you know , you almost sound sincere . theresa : i am , gwen . please , i will leave you guys alone . please , i swear . please ? can you say something , gwen ? gwen : you know what ? i have to give you credit , because you almost had me . you almost had me with your begging and your pleading , your sounding so pathetic and miserable . i mean , you actually sound like you believe what you 're saying . theresa : no , i do , gwen . gwen : no , i know you , theresa . i know how your mind works . you make big promises when you 're down , and you may actually believe them at the time , but the minute you get your way , you go back on your word . theresa : not this time . i swear , i promise . gwen : theresa , yes , you will . you always do . ok , you rise up like this phoenix from the ashes all triumphant , full of righteous indignation , ready to attack anyone who comes in your way . and let me tell you , it 's not going to be me , not again , not this time . theresa : gwen , just please , just give me one more chance , please . gwen : theresa , stop it ! just stop it . it 's not going to work . you have ruined my life for the last time . and , no , i am not going to give you back little ethan . he is my son now . theresa : no , gwen , no , no , no , no ! gwen : help me , ethan ! help me ! ethan : is that gwen ? fox : ethan , where 'd she go ? ethan : she went to the ladies ' room . fox : well , so did theresa . ethan : ereresa 's here ? fox : yeah , theresa 's here . i brought her here to try to take her mind off of things . ethan : oh , god . fox : ok . ethan : it 's locked . gwen : get -- ethan -- 9 ° for jaspet in the noon hour . beth : i told you this was crazy . alistair caught her picking his pocket . now what ? luis : i do n't know . sheridan 's voice : why does seeing luis with beth bother me so much ? antonio : sheridan ? sheridan : hmm ? antonio : come on . i just felt you tense up again . what is it ? sheridan : you know , i 'm sorry , but i just feel really tired all of a sudden . can we just goomome ? antonio : yeah , sure . sheridan : ok . lola : mr. crane , you 're hurting me . alistair : what the hell do you think you 're doing ? hank : should n't we try and help her ? god knows what alistair will do . luis : why do n't you just give her a minute , ok ? this girl looks like she can take care of herself . lola : i was just trying to slip my phone number in your pocket . i thought we could get together some time . i find you very attractive . [ alistair chuckles ] alistair : well , why did n't you say so ? just whisper your phone number in my ear ? i have an excellent memory . lola : i ca n't wait . luis : what happened to you ? are you ok ? lola : yeah . well , you owe me a lot more than 100 bucks . the man almost took my arm off . luis : i 'll make it up to you , ok ? i promise . did you get the key ? lola : whatever lola wants , lola gets . luis : god , thank you . i got the key . i got the key . now i 'm going to blow alistair crane sky high . beth 's voice : and i 'm going with him . gwen : get off of me ! get off of me ! fox : theresa , theresa -- ethan : gwen , gwen , gwen , gwen -- gwen : get off of me ! ethan : are you all right ? gwen : she 's insane , ethan . she came in here with a knife . she was threatening me ! she attacked me ! theresa : no , i did not . i came to talk to you , gwen . i came to reason with you to give me my child back , but you are every bit as hateful as your mother . you 're not going to stop until i 'm completely destroyed . gwen : oh , yeah , well , you 're one to talk about being destroyed , huh ? destroying people 's lives ? you 're not happy just destroying your own . you want to destroy little ethan 's , too . theresa , you killed my baby , and then you want little ethan back ? are you crazy ? you are never having him back ! you are never going to have your son back , ever ! ethan : fox , get her out -- get her out of here . theresa : no , i will get my child back , gwen . i will . fox : ok , all right , you will . gwen : honey , please just take me home , ok ? ethan : all right , all right , ok , ok . whitney : ugh . chad : whitney , come on , your mom and julian are n't out here . whitney : but i 'm telling you , it looked just like them , chad . chad : if they were here , they 're long gone . you know , let me take you home . i 'll bet we 'll find your mom and dad chilling by the fire . whitney : ok . eve : i ca n't take it anymore , julian . to get so close to my son and then just have my hopes dashed again , i ca n't ! it 's driving me crazy ! julian : eve , will you please pull over . let me drive . you 're much too upset to be behind the wheel . eve : all right . julian : all right , ease up , slow down , slow down . you 're going too fast . eve : oh , god -- julian : eve , watch out !Summarize.[/INST]theresa and fox go out to eat , where gwen and ethan also show up . when gwen goes to the powder room , theresa grabs a knife and follows gwen , where she threatens her , then begs her to return little ethan . gwen is not sympathetic to theresa . julian and eve rush to sally chin 's restaurant because of information that their son will be there . it was another of alistair 's pranks to torment them .</s> | 15,383 |

[ scene_break ] michael : elq has always been the family business , and now nikolas is in my office with his feet on my desk , and i ca n't do a damn thing about it . sabrina : well , how did that happen ? michael : [ sighs ] sabrina : i mean , i thought nikolas only had 50 % of elq stock . michael : he does . tracy and i were about to do an end run around him , take away his voting rights , and reduce him to a silent partner . sabrina : and what happened ? michael : lucy coe happened . she stabbed me in the back . sabrina : lucy ? michael : yeah , i thought i could trust her . i thought i could trust a lot of people .

[ scene_break ] franco : that smarmy attorney is just using her . ric has no idea how amazing nina is . kiki : you know what ? i think we should order you some food . franco : they meet in a bar , and they get married that quickly . and i told her that -- that he only married her for her money , but she does n't listen to me . kiki : what did you do ? franco : me ? i did n't do anything . all i did was point out that the only possible explanation for this -- this marriage is -- is -- is -- what is it called when you get money ? inheritance . kiki : okay , franco , i really -- i do n't want to enable your relationship with that loon . franco : she 's not a loon . she 's just eccentric . kiki : no , she 's a loon , okay ? and i am never gon na forgive her for what she did to my mother and my baby sister . but i do n't hate you . franco : gee , thanks . kiki : so , i 'm gon na offer you some advice , even though i know that nina is just a disaster waiting to happen . stay out of it , okay ? if this marriage is wrong for nina , she 's gon na figure it out for herself in her own time . franco : yeah , no , i - i do n't know about that . it took her a psychotic break to realize that she was in a bad marriage with that stiff silas . kiki : you mean my dad ? franco : yeah , your dad . someone 's got to open her eyes . i even -- i even asked nathan to help me out . he -- he 's helping me out with this one . kiki : detective west is in on it ? franco : yeah , that 's how bad this is . that 's how desperate . i even tried to enlist the help of nina 's medusa mother . kiki : excuse me ?

[ scene_break ] silas : do i need to remind you that the `` full ava `` will get us both `` full prison sentences `` ? ava : i know . i just ca n't stand being separated from avery . michael wo n't let me see her unless he 's available to `` supervise . `` silas : okay . so , i guess michael 's taking the responsibility as avery 's guardian seriously , all right ? he 's -- he 's trying to protect her . ava : from me ? while she 's surrounded by cutthroat quartermaines ? i went to see her , and i was turned away by the help . and not just any help -- sabrina santiago . the woman who drugged me and nearly killed my baby , and now she 's telling me that i ca n't see her ? silas : listen . i know how hard this is for you . i do . but you need to remember one thing . you are no longer ava jerome . not to anyone but me . ava : but i created denise demuccio , ava 's twin and her daughter 's aunt , so i would have a legitimate reason to be around avery . who 's sabrina to say otherwise ? she was fired from this hospital because of what she did to me . this is who michael chooses to look after my daughter ? silas : so talk to michael . ava : i did . he agreed with her . he said sabrina was right to turn me away , because i - i showed up without an appointment . i ca n't see my daughter , and i 'm starting to go a little crazy . silas : do n't go crazy , all right ? listen , i do n't know what you want me to do . i - i barely even know michael , all right ? he 's not gon na listen to me . ava : okay . okay , so you -- you 're cutting me off , yeah ? silas : i can be your friend . ava : my friend . but no more . you made that clear the last time i turned to you . and you know if you had just helped me then that i would n't have slipped up with kiki 's boyfriend .

[ scene_break ] ric : madeline , where 's this coming from ? there 's no need to make threats . i mean , we 're in this together . madeline : [ scoffs ] that 's what i thought , but i 've been [ sighs ] very distressed by your lack of communication . ric : gaining access to and gaining control of nina 's assets is a little bit more difficult . look , i think i 've been doing a pretty good job . you know , i - i got nina to marry me in record time , did n't i ? madeline : i did n't ask you to marry her . ric : well , excuse me for coming up with a better plan . madeline : you know , your quickie wedding was more a matter of her instability than your allure . ric : my allure , madeline , is the only thing that 's working for us , so you better get onboard . madeline : i am onboard . i 'm onboard . your being nina 's husband is gon na be an attribute to us in the future . but right now , i 'm having a really tough time with the funds that i have left . i need money . ric : i 'm working on it . madeline : how ? ric : well , i was about to go to dinner with her . i was gon na get her -- i was gon na coax her into getting the power of attorney papers signed . madeline : coax her ? what are you talking about ? i thought you were much further along than that . ric : well , i would 've been in the home stretch if it were n't for nina 's ex . madeline : what does silas have -- ric : no , not -- not dr. clay . franco . madeline : oh , geez . ric : her former conspirator boyfriend co - psycho . madeline : that cretin . geez , i thought that -- [ sighs ] i thought she turned her back on him . ric : no . he 's annoyingly persistent . he keeps whispering in her ear , keeps telling her that i 'm after her money . madeline : well , maybe he 's smarter than i thought he was . ric : he 's an impediment to our goals . madeline : look , all you have to do is concentrate on getting nina to sign those power of attorney papers . i 'll deal with franco .

[ scene_break ] rosalie : i have spent the last few months doing your dirty work -- lying to michael , sticking my neck out so that you could steal elq away from the quartermaines . so , how about showing just the tiniest , little bit of appreciation ? nikolas : how 's this for appreciation ? i wo n't kill you for your betrayal , and we 'll call it even . rosalie : what ? nikolas : you gave the police my name ! incriminating me ! you give me one good reason that i should n't lock you up on cassadine island while you live out the rest of your days as my grandmother 's bitch ! [ scene_break ] sabrina : so , you 're a bad guy now ? come on . look , you might have your moments , but guess what ? so does everybody else . there 's no way that you qualify as bad . michael : [ scoffs ] well , it depends on your perspective . sabrina : what did lucy say to make you think this ? is this about that argument that you had with duke lavery when he took it upon himself to lecture you about taking custody of aj , and then you called him out for giving sonny a fake alibi the night of your father 's death ? michael : [ sighs ] well , that 's part of it . sabrina : well ... lucy had no right to step into that , you know ? that was personal , about duke helping sonny cover up what he 'd done to your father . michael : there 's something else ... [ sighs ] something that pushed lucy over the edge and convinced her to side with nikolas . sabrina : what ? michael : when i -- when i took aj from sonny , i did it out of spite . to hurt him . that 's what lucy is holding against me . [ sighs ] and she 's right . [ scene_break ] morgan : i mean , denise was a basket case because michael told her that she had to make an appointment to see avery , that he had to supervise , so ... i comforted her . sonny : you comforted her ? what do you mean you comforted her ? morgan : i - i gave her a hug . sonny : just a hug ? morgan : that 's all . sonny : a hug ? morgan : it turned into something else . sonny : what the hell 's the matter with you ? morgan : it was a slip . sonny : what 's it gon na take for you to keep your hands off this woman ? morgan : please . like you 've never messed up with a woman before . sonny : that 's what i 'm trying to tell you , 'cause i do n't want you to repeat my mistakes . morgan : i could n't help myself . sonny : i told you stay away from denise . she 's trouble . and what do you do ? you screw her in your brother 's office . morgan : i did n't screw her . we stopped . sonny : well , congratulations . what about next time ? morgan : there 's not gon na be a next time , dad . sonny : who the hell do you think you 're talking to , morgan ? [ scene_break ] silas : i thought you were gon na stay away from morgan . ava : yeah , i know . i was . silas : he 's kiki 's boyfriend ... who you slept with while he was still married to kiki . ava : oh , that marriage was a sham . kiki was in love with michael . silas : not the point ! ava : ultimately , the feelings that morgan and i had for each other were -- were much deeper than what kiki felt for him . i loved him . silas : you promised not to hurt our daughter . ava : well , i did n't seek him out . it was a chance encounter . silas : a chance encounter ? oh , i 'm -- i 'm sorry . you know , i might be wrong here , but a normal person , she does n't generally take her clothes off and nearly have sex with her daughter 's boyfriend by chance . ava : well , it would n't have happened at all if -- if you had helped me to forget about him like i asked you to . silas : to be a booty call ? ava : i need a distraction . silas : a distraction ? pretending to be your own sister so you can see your daughter -- that 's not enough for you ? all this is not enough for you ? listen , if you ca n't get your mind off morgan , get a hobby . i suggest needlepoint . but if you 're looking for companionship , look elsewhere . you 're not getting it from me . [ scene_break ] morgan : i 'm not gon na get with denise . that would kill kiki . i 'm not gon na do that to her . i 've learned my lesson , okay ? thank god it was rosalie . sonny : rosalie ? michael 's assistant ? why -- why -- what does she have to do with anything ? morgan : nothing . nothing . sonny : then why did you bring it up ? what are n't you telling me , morgan ? morgan : she walked in . she walked in while -- while denise and i were getting it on on mikey 's couch . [ scene_break ] rosalie : you ca n't ship me off to some island because i talked to the police . nikolas : oh , i can do that , and a whole hell of a lot more , and you know it . rosalie : they -- they had me . they -- michael cornered me with -- with his brother , the detective . they said that they had a recording of me and nina when we were talking about the -- the stocks , and that that was proof that i committed corporate espionage . they had me . nikolas : they had nothing ! they conned you , rosalie . rosalie : well , they do n't have nothing now . i admitted that i was working for you . they have my statement . nikolas : not if you recant it . rosalie : that 's ridiculous . [ scene_break ] nina : you 're being ridiculous . franco : i do n't think that 's ridiculous . no , i 'm not . uh , your mother is not in prison . i saw her in person . you do n't believe me , ask your aunt liesl . nina : you 're trying to get to me . that 's what you 're trying to do . carly : keep your voices down . nina : oh , this is a private conversation we 're having here . carly : then do n't have it in my restaurant . kiki : hey , i know . we could just go . nina : okay , i need to talk to you . can you please come with me ? please come outside with me . carly : what the hell 's wrong with them ? kiki : they 're in love . franco : do n't know how else to communicate it to you . your mother 's been set free . if i knew another language , i 'd say it in another language . nina : all right . you -- you -- you actually saw my mother ? franco : in the hospital a few days ago . nina : well , that 's impossible , because it would be impossible for her to get out of prison with the charges that she was facing . franco : well , maybe some hotshot attorney helped her out . nina : what hotshot attorney ? franco : i do n't know . madeline did n't say , but probably some soulless hack with no morals or integrity who will do anything for a buck . who 's that sound like , nina ? maybe someone that you 're married to ? nina : what ? franco : maybe the lawyer who sprung your mother is your husband . [ scene_break ] madeline : franco is a minor nuisance . we have to concentrate on nina . ric : which is exactly what i 'm doing . it 's jut a matter of time before i gain access to her money . madeline : access alone is n't gon na solve our problem . we have nothing if nina 's inheritance is in her name . ric : well , then we just take her name off of it . madeline : do you have any idea how to do that ? ric : yeah , i do . we get rid of nina . madeline : what are you suggesting ? ric : there are many options to consider here . we do n't -- hey ! hey ! hey ! hey ! ow ! madeline : you will not harm nina ! she is my child . ric : oh ! says the mother of the year who put her daughter in a coma and caused her to lose her baby . madeline : do not speak of which you do not know . ric : what are you talking about ? madeline : just find another solution , and no panic - room imprisonment , either . i know your reputation . ric : look , you -- you want to get nina 's money , here , or not ? 'cause we 're not gon na do it by playing nice . madeline : well , we 're not gon na do it by hurting her . ric : well , i 'm open to suggestions . you got any ? madeline : as a matter of fact , i think i do . [ scene_break ] nina : ric would n't lift a finger to help my mother . franco : right . and you know him so well . nina : yeah , he was there for me when you betrayed me . franco : because he 's so reliable . you know , madeline did n't seem like madeline when i told her she had to do something about your marriage before ric robbed you of your inheritance . nina : yeah , i do n't care what my mother said . franco : she just shrugged and said there 's more to life than money . nina : get to the point . franco : my point is , maybe she 's not so upset about ric taking all your dough because they 're in it together . nina : my husband is devoted to me . he 's not devoted to my mother or my money . franco : okay , he 's so devoted , where is he ? hey , ric ! ric ! you here ? ric lansing ? nina : he 's meeting me here . franco : oh . well , he better hurry up , or he 's gon na miss the early bird special . i know how much you love the early bird special . nina : ric and i , um , are -- are going to have a very civilized dinner , and then afterward , we 're going back up to the room 'cause we 're gon na do a bunch of uncivilized things . franco : wow . cool . nina : mm - hmm . franco : yeah , so am i . that 's what i 'm gon na do . nina : really ? franco : yeah . nina : with who ? a blow - up doll ? franco : no . like a -- nina : no ? franco : with a real woman . a real -- yes . i 'm meeting her here , and we 're gon na paint the whole town uncivilized . nina : what ? my -- my aunt liesl ? franco : i do n't even know what to say to that . nina : who is it ? i -- 'cause i just see a bunch of trolls out here . it 's not kiki , is it ? franco : do n't be stupid . nina : carly ? and do n't do that unless you want your knees broken . who is it ? who -- who are you -- who are you going out with ? [ scene_break ] carly : oh , i should 've thrown nina and franco out of here . kiki : why do n't you ? carly : well , 'cause if i 'm lucky , maybe they 'll kill each other . and i 'm way too worried about michael to care . kiki : yeah , i heard about elq . i was shocked . i mean , michael must really be hurting . carly : i can only assume , you know ? he 's still not speaking to me . kiki : at least he and morgan are kind of patching things up ? carly : that 's what morgan said . let 's hope it lasts . kiki : you think it wo n't . carly : i think morgan 's already pushing the envelope . the other day , he went to elq to ask michael if sonny could see avery . kiki : yeah , i was actually headed over there . i was gon na try to referee for them . but it turns out , i was worried for nothing , 'cause michael was n't even there . just denise . carly : denise ? kiki : yeah . carly : morgan did n't mention that . kiki : well , i guess she went over there to meet with michael , and was probably the reason that he left , because apparently she gave him an earful about only letting her see avery with an appointment . carly : i can not blame michael for being wary of her . kiki : maybe you 'll change your mind if you meet her ? carly : i do n't think so . sonny told me all about her , so i do n't trust her one bit . i would like to see her for myself , though . ava : [ new jersey accent ] oh . well , then , feast your eyes , 'cause i 'm right here . [ scene_break ] nina : [ chuckles ] you 're stalling . franco : i 'm not stalling . i 'm just not gon na tell you . nina : because there 's no one . you do n't have a date . franco : yeah , i do , too . nina : okay . well , then , where is she ? franco : she 's right there . [ scene_break ] rosalie : i ca n't recant my statement . nikolas : sure , you can . just tell the police you lied . rosalie : i wrote it , and i signed it . nikolas : but , rosalie ... you were n't thinking clearly . you were coerced , tricked , duped , et cetera . you would 've said anything to get the police off your back . whatever . your attorney will tell you what to say and how to say it . rosalie : i do n't have an attorney . nikolas : you do now . i hired you representation . rosalie : oh . well , that 's not gon na look suspicious . nikolas : relax . he ca n't be connected to me . you play your cards right , and your entire statement will be rendered worthless , and we 're both off the hook . rosalie : well , i 'm already off the hook because i cooperated with the police . nikolas : you should be worried about me , not the police . you better make this right , or you 're entire world will come crashing down when i blow up your secret . [ scene_break ] sonny : so , rosalie walked in on -- on you and denise ? morgan : i mean , kind of . she -- she walked in right when we decided to stop everything . sonny : so , did she see you kissing ? morgan : she saw some clothes come off . enough . she saw enough to draw the right conclusion . sonny : i 'm not stupid , morgan . morgan : i begged her not to say anything to kiki . sonny : okay , so , you know what ? maybe begging is not enough . morgan : do n't worry , okay ? she 's already had the chance to tell kiki everything , and she has n't , so i 'm pretty sure i can trust her . sonny : uh - huh , i 'm sure michael thought the same thing before she betrayed him . [ scene_break ] sabrina : you fought for custody because you were worried about your sister 's safety , and for good reason . michael , you paid a high price growing up in sonny 's household , and you understandably did n't want the same thing for your sister . michael : [ sighs ] you know there was more to it than that , sabrina . when i filed for custody of aj , i was n't even thinking about keeping her safe . i mean , sonny ... he killed my father , okay ? he killed my father , and he got away with a slap on the wrist . so i wanted to take someone away from him . i wanted him to hurt the way that i was hurt . sabrina : do you wish that you 'd done things differently ? michael : [ sighs ] look , aj was n't always a good man . he was n't always a good man , but he was trying to be a better man when sonny cut him down . aj did not deserve to die like that . sabrina : okay , but from what you just said , it sounds like you do n't think sonny 's getting what he deserves , either . look , maybe it 's time you laid down your arms and -- and ended this war that you 've engaged in . is there any way you could see yourself forgiving sonny ? [ scene_break ] nikolas : helena got very chatty when i dropped her off on that rock in the middle of the mediterranean . [ chuckles ] first , i chalked it up to dementia . the crone has gotten a bit dotty lately . but she did drop one tidbit that had a distinct ring of truth concerning the secret that you 've been clinging to for dear life . rosalie : and you told me you would n't say anything . nikolas : and i 've kept my word . i 've protected your secret . i 've been very , very good to you , rosalie . compensated you well for acting as my agent within elq . rosalie : yeah , and i 've come through for you , have n't i ? i told you what michael was up to . i got those shares for you from nina . nikolas : you 've proven yourself an asset , so i 'm willing to continue our arrangement . you 'll still have a place here if you recant your statement to the police . stay on team cassadine , and the way is yours . your secret will remain a secret . what do you say ? [ scene_break ] michael : well , part of me wants this to be over . i 'm just tired of being at odds with my family . i 'm sick of hating sonny . i know i could just end this by letting him off the hook . that -- that 's what people say , right ? letting him off the hook ? but sonny did hang my father off a meat hook and forced him to sign away his parental rights . sonny always hated my father , and he killed him bit by bit , and then all at once . who -- who am i to forgive that ? and what -- what is that saying about me ? sabrina : michael , it says that you 're a good person , not a bad person . look , i did n't know aj very well , but it sounds to me like he wanted what was best for you , and he would want you to be happy . are you happy now ? michael : what if i 'm not ? [ scoffs ] what if i want sonny and carly back in my life ? and after everything that i 've done , i mean , how ...

[ scene_break ] carly : oh , i should 've thrown nina and franco out of here . kiki : why do n't you ? carly : well , 'cause if i 'm lucky , maybe they 'll kill each other . and i 'm way too worried about michael to care . kiki : yeah , i heard about elq . i was shocked . i mean , michael must really be hurting . carly : i can only assume , you know ? he 's still not speaking to me . kiki : at least he and morgan are kind of patching things up ? carly : that 's what morgan said . let 's hope it lasts . kiki : you think it wo n't . carly : i think morgan 's already pushing the envelope . the other day , he went to elq to ask michael if sonny could see avery . kiki : yeah , i was actually headed over there . i was gon na try to referee for them . but it turns out , i was worried for nothing , 'cause michael was n't even there . just denise . carly : denise ? kiki : yeah . carly : morgan did n't mention that . kiki : well , i guess she went over there to meet with michael , and was probably the reason that he left , because apparently she gave him an earful about only letting her see avery with an appointment . carly : i can not blame michael for being wary of her . kiki : maybe you 'll change your mind if you meet her ? carly : i do n't think so . sonny told me all about her , so i do n't trust her one bit . i would like to see her for myself , though . ava : [ new jersey accent ] oh . well , then , feast your eyes , 'cause i 'm right here . [ scene_break ] nina : [ chuckles ] you 're stalling . franco : i 'm not stalling . i 'm just not gon na tell you . nina : because there 's no one . you do n't have a date . franco : yeah , i do , too . nina : okay . well , then , where is she ? franco : she 's right there . [ scene_break ] rosalie : i ca n't recant my statement . nikolas : sure , you can . just tell the police you lied . rosalie : i wrote it , and i signed it . nikolas : but , rosalie ... you were n't thinking clearly . you were coerced , tricked , duped , et cetera . you would 've said anything to get the police off your back . whatever . your attorney will tell you what to say and how to say it . rosalie : i do n't have an attorney . nikolas : you do now . i hired you representation . rosalie : oh . well , that 's not gon na look suspicious . nikolas : relax . he ca n't be connected to me . you play your cards right , and your entire statement will be rendered worthless , and we 're both off the hook . rosalie : well , i 'm already off the hook because i cooperated with the police . nikolas : you should be worried about me , not the police . you better make this right , or you 're entire world will come crashing down when i blow up your secret . [ scene_break ] sonny : so , rosalie walked in on -- on you and denise ? morgan : i mean , kind of . she -- she walked in right when we decided to stop everything . sonny : so , did she see you kissing ? morgan : she saw some clothes come off . enough . she saw enough to draw the right conclusion . sonny : i 'm not stupid , morgan . morgan : i begged her not to say anything to kiki . sonny : okay , so , you know what ? maybe begging is not enough . morgan : do n't worry , okay ? she 's already had the chance to tell kiki everything , and she has n't , so i 'm pretty sure i can trust her . sonny : uh - huh , i 'm sure michael thought the same thing before she betrayed him . [ scene_break ] sabrina : you fought for custody because you were worried about your sister 's safety , and for good reason . michael , you paid a high price growing up in sonny 's household , and you understandably did n't want the same thing for your sister . michael : [ sighs ] you know there was more to it than that , sabrina . when i filed for custody of aj , i was n't even thinking about keeping her safe . i mean , sonny ... he killed my father , okay ? he killed my father , and he got away with a slap on the wrist . so i wanted to take someone away from him . i wanted him to hurt the way that i was hurt . sabrina : do you wish that you 'd done things differently ? michael : [ sighs ] look , aj was n't always a good man . he was n't always a good man , but he was trying to be a better man when sonny cut him down . aj did not deserve to die like that . sabrina : okay , but from what you just said , it sounds like you do n't think sonny 's getting what he deserves , either . look , maybe it 's time you laid down your arms and -- and ended this war that you 've engaged in . is there any way you could see yourself forgiving sonny ? [ scene_break ] nikolas : helena got very chatty when i dropped her off on that rock in the middle of the mediterranean . [ chuckles ] first , i chalked it up to dementia . the crone has gotten a bit dotty lately . but she did drop one tidbit that had a distinct ring of truth concerning the secret that you 've been clinging to for dear life . rosalie : and you told me you would n't say anything . nikolas : and i 've kept my word . i 've protected your secret . i 've been very , very good to you , rosalie . compensated you well for acting as my agent within elq . rosalie : yeah , and i 've come through for you , have n't i ? i told you what michael was up to . i got those shares for you from nina . nikolas : you 've proven yourself an asset , so i 'm willing to continue our arrangement . you 'll still have a place here if you recant your statement to the police . stay on team cassadine , and the way is yours . your secret will remain a secret . what do you say ? [ scene_break ] michael : well , part of me wants this to be over . i 'm just tired of being at odds with my family . i 'm sick of hating sonny . i know i could just end this by letting him off the hook . that -- that 's what people say , right ? letting him off the hook ? but sonny did hang my father off a meat hook and forced him to sign away his parental rights . sonny always hated my father , and he killed him bit by bit , and then all at once . who -- who am i to forgive that ? and what -- what is that saying about me ? sabrina : michael , it says that you 're a good person , not a bad person . look , i did n't know aj very well , but it sounds to me like he wanted what was best for you , and he would want you to be happy . are you happy now ? michael : what if i 'm not ? [ scoffs ] what if i want sonny and carly back in my life ? and after everything that i 've done , i mean , how ... [ sighs ] ... how would i even make that happen ? sabrina : well , there is one way . [ scene_break ] sonny : do n't get too comfortable trusting rosalie . michael took her in , gave her a job . look what it got him . he lost his job , and the quartermaines lost control of their company . if rosalie can blow up elq that easy , she can just as easily blow up you and kiki . [ scene_break ] kiki : denise demuccio , carly jacks . carly , denise . ava : charmed , i 'm sure . carly : so , you 're the famous denise ? ava : in the flesh . carly : wow , ava 's twin . ava : fraternal . carly : i would 've never guessed . ava : did you know my sister ? carly : uh , in a manner of speaking . ava : it sounds like the two of youse were n't very friendly . carly : mm . hated her . ava : your loss . [ scene_break ] nina : so -- so your date is the woman talking to carly ? oh . um ... who is she ? um , where -- what does she do ? where did you meet ? franco : what do you care ? nina : i do n't . it 's just , you know everything about ric and me . i - i think it 's only fair that i - i know about your -- your new lady friend . franco : all you need to know is that she 's amazing and that she 's totally into me . nina : good . well , i am very intrigued . uh , i 'd love to meet her . w - why do n't you introduce us ? [ scene_break ] ric : so , you have a plan to get nina 's money ? madeline : yeah . ric : okay . what do you got in mind ? madeline : nina 's ... mind , or what 's left of it , you ... [ sighs ] you 've probably noticed that she 's ... got a funny way about her . ric : oh , yeah . slightly . madeline : she 's ... been unwell for a long time , well before the coma . i was amazed that the doctors at shadybrook agreed to release her . they should 've known that she 's a very , very sick girl . ric : who ought to be remanded into their care ... indefinitely . leaving her money in the hands of her husband . madeline : i love my daughter . ric : oh , no . madeline : ... no matter what you think . and i do n't relish the idea of institutionalizing her , but i ... [ sighs ] ... i really feel like in the long run , it 's -- it 's gon na be the best thing for her . maybe she 'll finally get the help that she 's needed for so long . ric : no , yeah , no . it 's -- it 's an act of mercy . madeline : so , we 're agreed ? ric : took a lawyer to get her out of shadybrook , right ? gon na take a lawyer to get her back in . i 'll do it . madeline : there 's just one other , little problem . if we ... do what we 've envisioned here , nina will be locked up , you 'll have her money , and i 'll be out in the cold . i did n't come this far to end up empty - handed . [ scene_break ] franco : uh , no . you -- you ca n't meet her . nina : why not ? franco : uh , because she 's shy . nina : she 's shy ? that 's why she 's hanging out with carly ? franco : and she 's terrified of pearls . nina : is she ? oh , well , then , i will cure her . [ scene_break ] kiki : denise , carly is morgan and michael 's mother . ava : oh ! no kidding . hey , tell me , how is it that two boys from the same mother turn out so different ? i mean , one is such a nice boy , and the other , he makes me make an appointment to see my own niece . nina : um , excuse me , can i have a wo -- [ scene_break ] michael : if i wanted to reconcile with sonny and carly , and i 'm not saying that i do , how -- how would i make that happen ? sabrina : well , i could think of one thing that would go a long way in healing the rift between you and your parents . michael : okay , what 's that ? sabrina : okay , well , i just -- i do n't know how else to say this , so i 'm just gon na say it . you can give aj back to sonny . [ scene_break ] morgan : rosalie definitely betrayed michael , but she and i , we have a completely different relationship . we we 're actually friends before nina clay forced her to -- to chase after michael . she 's got nothing to gain from interfering with kiki . sonny : well , i was under the impression that kiki and rosalie do n't -- they do n't get along . morgan : well , rosalie 's just -- she 's not gon na -- she 's not gon na hurt me for no reason . in fact , actually , the ros -- rosalie and mikey thing , that does n't really sit well with me , because , you know , that 's not the girl that i -- that i know . i - i 'd actually be willing -- i 'd be willing to bet you that there 's more to the story of how she got hooked up with nikolas and why she 's doing his dirty work . [ scene_break ] nikolas : well , rosalie ... tick - tock , tick - tock . if you 're not gon na call the police and tell them you made a mistake , we 'll have to get the ball rolling and make other arrangements . it 's nothing for me to hire a new assistant . rosalie : what choice do i have ? nikolas : none that i can see . your attorney 's waiting for you at the police station . follow his instructions . rosalie : wait , you want me to recant my statement tonight ? nikolas : the sooner you exonerate me , the sooner we can get back to work , right ? rosalie : [ sighs ] right .
