[ bangs gavel ] liza : hey . listen , i 'm sorry . i had to destroy willis ' argument . i could n't let the jury think that adam knew all along . i wanted to prove that you had a grudge against him . i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to hurt you any more than i know that you 're -- already hurting . zach : i would like to take this opportunity to ask you guys to stay out of my life . erica : zach lost his wife . i lost my daughter . and you 're gon na let adam and annie off ? liza : that 's not the way that i see -- erica : you know as well as i do that adam must have some grand scheme to get annie free . or are you gon na finally feel like the fool you really are when you realize he 's been working you , just the way he 's been working everybody else ? [ scene_break ] annie : you are so wrong about adam . he is going to help me in a way no other man has with great sacrifice to himself . ryan : so , i was right . there is a plan . annie : you know what , ryan ? you can go now . adam 's gon na walk free from this , and there 's not a damn thing you can do about it . ryan : maybe not . maybe not . but you will never ever get full custody of emma . does n't matter what any jury says or which judge adam pays off . you will have to kill me before i let her go . [ scene_break ] liza : so , the night of the murder , adam chandler was a sad , drug - addled man . he was attacked by everyone close to him -- ex - wives , a bitter son , an angry couple who blamed him for their son 's death . and that night , they all stormed the house intending to do him harm . but did he hate them ? no . adam chandler hated himself and what he had become . so , in his drug - infused haze , he fired that gun at his own image . but did the bullet take him down ? no . it took down his other half , a man he 'd always felt was a part of him , the only man that actually loved him , unequivocally -- his dear twin brother stuart . so he blocked that waking nightmare . he buried it so deep , until one day it all came flooding back , so horrific , so dark , that he tried to take his own life again . if adam chandler had not been drugged that night , his brother would still be alive . adam 's gon na pay for that for the rest of his life no matter what you decide here . but forgiveness and mercy , well , that 's in your hands alone . d.a . willis : forgiveness . mercy . those are useful words in the sentencing phase of a trial . but you 're here now to determine guilt or innocence . and you must know in that place in your heart that knows the truth , though he weeps for the brother he killed , there is nothing innocent about adam chandler . there is one person that we never heard from today . unfortunately , i could n't call her to the stand . annie chandler . i 'm sure you 're watching , mrs. chandler . your trial is just around the corner . annie is an attractive , seductive woman with her own reasons for keeping the killer 's identity a secret -- so she could marry the richest man in town , avoid prison time for crimes she previously committed , and to get her child back . and she almost got away with it all , too . but the truth came out , and a man will do a lot for the woman he loves . like keep quiet about things he 's done , play the drugged pathetic victim in order to win the much - younger lady 's hand . and make no mistake , adam chandler is always out to win . and this time , that call is in your hands . i beg you , do n't let him get away with murder .

[ scene_break ] bianca : reese was engaged before ? mr. williams : i take it she did n't tell you . he was an architect . worked at the same firm . we were thrilled when reese announced that she and simon were going to get married . i mean , he seemed like a great guy . she did it with a caveat , that she was never going to have children , but her mother and i hoped she 'd change her mind , which , we came to find out , she did . bianca : and , uh -- ok , so she was engaged and -- and then what happened ? mr. williams : two weeks before the big day , after countless months of preparation and planning , mostly done by her mother , she called it off , and you can imagine how we felt . it was especially hard on her mother . bianca : when she called it off , did she give a reason ? mr. williams : no , she did n't tell us about that until later . bianca : and that 's the last time you saw her . mr. williams : until today . look , bianca , i 'm sure , to you , we seem very callous and horribly unfair , but it is reese who turned her back on us first . at least , that 's how it felt . her mother -- [ mr. williams sighs ] mr. williams : she had to go into therapy . she started taking medication . she 's just -- just beginning to act like herself again . bianca : she does n't know you 're here . mr. williams : i do n't think that she could take it . i think that she 's harder on reese than i would like , but it comes out of very real pain , pain that our daughter caused . so , it is not quite as cut and dry as you make it out to be . bianca : one thing is . either you love your daughter and you accept her for who she is , or you do n't .

[ scene_break ] brot : at first the heat was so intense . i remember frankie was working on me , trying to calm me down , and keeping me from thrashing around . his mouth was moving , but i could n't hear anything . maybe it was because my ears were ringing . maybe that part of my brain just shut down to deal with the intense pain . or maybe i was just screaming too loud to hear anything else . the truth is , i did n't need to hear anything to know how bad it was . the look in hub 's eyes told me more than i wanted to know , and this is more than you want to know . taylor : keep going . brot : frankie earned that silver star . i remember , he held me in his arms as if i was his firstborn , and his mouth was still moving , and i still could n't hear anything . and the smell -- that smell , it was me , burning alive . and i can -- i can feel the life being sucked right out of me , and that 's when my mind just left , and i saw my friends , our unit , my mom . and you . that 's when i heard something . [ brot chuckles ] taylor : what ? brot : your voice over the radio . you were calling for a medevac to get me out of there . but all i could really hear was your sweet voice telling me to hang on . so i did . truth is , your voice , your love -- that 's what kept me alive that day .

[ scene_break ] greenlee : do you know why i was called down here ? frankie : i believe it 's because the readings on david 's monitor are yielding some unusual readings . greenlee : unusual how ? frankie : come inside . i 'll show you . greenlee : he does n't seem to be different . frankie : looks can be deceiving . since you came into the room , his heart rate is elevated . greenlee : is he still in a coma ? frankie : he is , and there 's no telling when he 'll come out of it , but something is definitely going on in there with him . [ scene_break ] ryan : you 're probably pushing away the one person that you need more than anybody else right now . kendall : there 's nothing greenlee can do to help me . ryan : she 's torturing herself over what happened . you know that . kendall : funny . `` tortured `` was the last thing i saw when i walked in here -- the two of you smiling and holding hands and happy . ryan : we are . we 're happy to be together , kendall , but we 're just -- it kills us that you 're suffering right now . kendall : then do n't make it any worse . and do n't look at me like that . i know that it 's wrong and irrational and maybe even selfish to exclude her . but every time i see greenlee with you , it reminds me of how i will never hold my husband 's hand again or wake up in his arms or curl up next to him or spend another vacation with him or christmas or new year 's . ryan : and you know that -- greenlee was n't alone when zach 's plane went down . i was there , too . so do you feel that way about me ? kendall : you and i share a son . if we did n't , i would n't want to spend a second more with you either . [ scene_break ] greenlee : you have no idea what caused his heart rate to elevate ? frankie : no . it could be an involuntary response . greenlee : or he might be waking up . he might be aware that i 'm in here . frankie : that 's very possible . greenlee : ok . so now that i 'm here , what am i supposed to do ? frankie : hospital 's obligated to alert next of kin when there 's been any change that may result in that happening . [ phone rings ] frankie : i got to go check on another patient . greenlee : are you there ? can you hear me ? i just came from seeing kendall . she can barely look at me . i am trying with everything in me to put you and the lie that was our marriage behind me , but know that i never really can because of zach . because of what happened to him , i will never , never be free of you . is that what you wanted ? is that what you 're trying to tell me by making your heart go faster ? are you trying to tell me that i 'll never be able to walk away from you , that you 'll never let me go ?

[ laughter ] erica : myrtle told me that she was n't a real clairvoyant . she told me that she told people 's fortunes by looking into their eyes . myrtle was very good at reading whether people were happy or in love or in pain , and by the time people left that tent , everyone was convinced that myrtle really did have a gift , because she had read them so well . myrtle really did have a gift . her life was a path all about giving . she told us those carny stories to make us laugh . she had a boarding house to give us shelter . and she had her boutique so that we would go in there and look in her mirror and see how beautiful we are inside and out . myrtle was a giver and a healer and a source of so much laughter . and at this christmastime , i have no doubt that myrtle is making time between bridge games with my mother -- [ laughter ] erica : to take her place by god 's side as his very top angel . zach , would you like to say a few words ? zach ? [ scene_break ] [ zach stops the elevator and sits down in one corner , hugs his body , draws up his legs , and cries ] [ scene_break ] opal : i feel her . she 's happy . she 's at peace . erica : of course , she is . bianca : zach , are you all right ? zach : yeah , i 'm fine . erica : thank you for this , zach . this -- this was wonderful . opal and bianca : yeah . bianca : i can feel her smiling down on us . i should get home to the kids . erica : you know something ? i 'll go with you . i could really use some of their little hugs . zach : i 'll see you there . erica : you take care . zach : yeah . [ once alone , zach stands in front of myrtle 's portrait and reads a poem the actor thorsten kaye wrote entitled `` highland song . `` ] zach 's voice : now who will lead our carnival ? and who will make us stronger ? who will mend our broken sleep when she is here no longer ? for whose part do we stand and bow ? what stories do we tell ? and will we memorize the day when great and greatness fell ? say will this valley overcome , and will these shadows fade ? and will we lift our eyes to see the beauty that she made ? the disappearing last of her that leads to worlds unknown has left a path to softly tread when sadness wanders home . i 'll meet thee where the highland winds divide wild mountain tyne , where i will be forever yours and you , forever mine . myrtle 's voice : and , trust me , the angels are on your side . | a tribute to myrtle fargate : zach looks at the newspaper 's obit with a pic of myrtle fargate and remembers times that he spent talking to her , then he receives a package from his deceased friend . bianca looks at the obituary about myrtle with tears in her eyes . reese brings out a blanket and wraps it around bianca 's shoulders . bianca looks down and sees a box from myrtle . opal also receives a box from myrtle containing a crystal ball . opal lets pete know that she is not ready to say good - bye to myrtle . erica and jack visit myrtle 's ex - dress shop . erica finds a box on the counter addressed to her , but ca n't open it right away . zach goes to visit kendall to let her know that myrtle passed away in her sleep and brings the package that she sent him . zach opens the box and pulls out a photo album with the inscription , `` it 's all worth it . `` david stops zach in the hall and asks if he told the rest of kendall 's family that she is dying . zach lets david know that you never give up hope no matter what . |
ryan : so you know who drugged my wife ? zach : you interested or not ? ryan : the truth ? not a lot you say interests me . greenlee : ditto that . he 's not interested , we 're not interested , so why do n't you just go away ? zach : i have evidence .

[ scene_break ] j.r. : i told you all of this , erica . bianca was n't in her right mind when she fell . erica : you told me she was upset . j.r. : she was angry . she was willing to do anything to take my child , all because of babe 's sick lies . there was no talking sense into her . she got crazy . erica : and -- and then she went over the balcony ? j.r. : and i would have stopped it if i could . but bess is my child . she means everything to me . adam : nobody doubts how much you love that baby , j.r . j.r. : all the pain and misery babe has put me through -- the lies -- she 's poison . the one thing that 's gotten me through is bess . she 's the one thing that 's worth getting up in the morning . adam : you 're a good father , j.r . j.r. : she 's the innocent in all this . purest of love . and she 's my life . erica : i 'm so sorry , j.r . i 'm -- so sorry .

[ scene_break ] greenlee : if this is for real , kendall 's been seeing a shrink once a week . ryan : and look when she started -- september 14 . that 's -- that 's like a week after the murder game . greenlee : she 's been taking the same medication that i 've been on . ryan : anti - anxiety pills . greenlee : well , it 's not like she did n't need them . i mean , think about all she 's been through , starting with court and then miranda , and then she lost you to me , which made it twice as bad . and then we got married , and to top it all off , she thought that she shot you . she probably took every single one of those pills . ryan : yeah , look when she filled the prescription . it was like a couple days before your first episode . greenlee : yeah , but nothing in zach 's info said that she was prescribed the other medication , the anti - psychotic . ryan : does n't mean she could 've got them . greenlee : you do n't really buy that ? ryan : look , all i know is that somebody wanted you to be weaving baskets in a straitjacket for a very long time . greenlee : see , kendall would 've known better . ryan : if she was thinking rationally . big `` if . `` greenlee : she really seemed to be trying so hard . ryan : could 've been a diversion , you know , get our minds off of things so that we 'd let our guard down so she goes after you . she 's crossed the line before , greenlee . what do you think ? greenlee : with everything that 's gone down , you know , i really hoped that she 'd get past it . i thought that someday kendall and i could actually co- exist in this universe without hurting each other . we were friends once before . i mean , anything 's possible . jonathan : hey , you guys ok ? ryan : sort of . jonathan : well , i was waiting for you at the penthouse . when you did n't show , it just -- just something 's going on .

[ scene_break ] babe : i made a decision for the love of my husband , and i justified holding on to a child that was n't mine . and it was wrong . and it ate at me every single day that that little girl was n't with her mother . you know how i feel , do n't you ? kelly , it is the same way that you justified holding on to my child . kelly : i thought ace 's mother did n't want him . paul told me that she was living on the streets , that she could n't take care of him the way he deserved . but , you , you knew . you knew that bianca wanted her child , and yet you still said nothing . babe : do n't you -- kelly : you said nothing to your friend . what kind of woman does that ? what kind of mother ? babe : it was the biggest mistake of my life , ok , and i 'll regret it to the day that i die , but i tried to make things right . i told bianca the truth . kelly : right , after you took my child . what if you had never found ace ? you 'd still be in pine valley passing off bess as your own . babe : that is not true . i was going to tell bianca everything , even before i found out that my little boy was alive ! kelly : how can i believe a word you say , you 've told so many lies ? babe : this is n't easy , kelly , not for any of us , but those babies belong with their mothers . kelly : you are such a hypocrite . babe : i am telling you the truth . if you want to punish me , fine . do whatever you want , because god knows i deserve it . but you are going to be punishing an innocent child , too , the child that we both love and care for . kelly , if james ends up with his father , we are both going to lose out .

's baby is dead . erica : and yet , once again , you did n't tell j.r. why i 'm really here . adam : i do n't want to make him more upset than he already is . erica : yes , j.r. is desperate to hold on to that baby , but you know the truth . you know that miranda really belongs to bianca . you know that miranda is really a kane . so tell me , adam , are you going to do the right thing ? are you going to help me prove it ? adam , we have to do that test . adam : did you see j.r. 's face when he talked about bess ? nobody could love that child more than he does . erica : except that baby 's own mother , bianca . i know you have doubts , too . i see it in your face . you know , too , that that baby belongs to bianca . that 's why you 're fighting so hard . adam : i 'm fighting for my family . erica : no , you do n't want to face the truth . but at night , when you 're alone , adam , look at that baby . look at that little girl 's face . look for some sign , some reassurance -- the shape of her chin , the color of her eyes , the way she moves her head -- any sign that will tell you she 's a chandler . well , you wo n't find it , adam , because it 's not there ! adam : i 've already had my doubts and i 've already dealt with them . in fact , i pulled a dna sample from bianca . `` erica : what did they tell you ? adam : nothing , because j.r. caught me in the act , and he made it quite clear that he would take bess and leave this house forever if i tried to go through with it . erica : so now you 're feeding his denial ? adam : he worships bess . i 'm not going to be the one to look him in the eye and tell him his child is dead . i 'm not going to serve him up with a memory of his baby drowning , fighting for its life , dying in that river ! erica : look , adam , i know what you 're afraid of about how j.r. is feeling . i know that . my god , when bianca lost miranda , it nearly tore us apart , but we found our way back to each other . adam : no , my son and your daughter could n't be more different . no , my son would never forgive me . erica : you do n't know that . adam : i ca n't risk it . look around you . do you see colby ? seen hayley lately ? no . j.r. and bess , j.r. and bess are all i have left . erica : but you ca n't protect your son forever , adam . the truth will come out . you know i wo n't let it go . i will get the proof we need , even if it means i tell j.r. that it was your idea . adam : do n't you even think about that , erica . i 'm warning you . erica : if it was you , if the tables were turned , you would move heaven and earth to get your own flesh and blood back where she belongs , so you better hang tight , adam , because that is exactly what i plan to do . adam : all right , you 've said what you came to say . now get out . erica : and it 's not just the baby i 'm fighting for . it 's bianca . i am fighting for my daughter 's life . this is not over . adam : do n't threaten me . erica : oh , you know me . i do n't just threaten . i follow through . adam : do your worst . erica : no , i 'll do my best . i promised my daughter i would put her baby back in her arms , and i will . i will get that baby back with or without your help . no , you will not be raising any kane children in this house . [ scene_break ] babe : kelly , if the police are brought into this , j.r. is going to find out that he has a son , and then all bets are going to be off , and that little boy is going to end up being raised by his father . he 's going to be a chandler heir . and they 'll mold him and they 'll form him . kelly : i 'll fight them . babe : and you 'll lose , just the same way that i did . kelly , i know what is in store for him if he ends up with j.r. ca n't you see that i 'm trying to protect my baby ? there 's no laughter in that house . no joy . all it is is ambition and greed , and how long can a little boy stay innocent growing up in a household -- how -- how is he supposed to grow up to be the man that he 's supposed to be when he has a father and a grandfather hovering over him where all they do is worship power and money ? sounds familiar ? kelly : oh , my god . babe : i kidnapped james for the exact same reasons that you took him from kevin -- to save the little boy that we love .

[ scene_break ] ethan : yeah . zach : you think i fabricated information about kendall to help my son ? maria : did you ? zach : no , i did not . kendall 's been seeing a therapist . and that therapist prescribed the same medication that was found in large doses in greenlee 's bloodstream . maria : so what does that prove ? that proves that you were able to steal confidential patient - doctor information ? zach : that 's the least of my worries . maria : because if ethan can beat the attempted murder rap and you can put kendall in jail for drugging greenlee , then there 'll be no reason for ethan to stay in town , right ? ok , well , what if ethan decides to play the hero and he decides to stick around pine valley to try to prove that kendall 's innocent ? zach : then i will just have to leave no doubt in anyone 's mind whether she is guilty or not .
