[ scene_break ] paul : it 's in her handwriting , will . it 's even the postmark . will : it 's so faded , it could be from anywhere . paul : i do n't know why you are so determined to turn this into such a huge deal . will : because mom would n't bail on us , especially not after we agreed to let her come take care of hallie . that 's like giving her the keys to fort knox . she would n't blow that , not for just a cruise . paul : no , not ordinarily . will : not ever . paul : she thinks she 's in love with henry , okay ? lately all of her energy has revolved around trying to get away from henry or forgetting about henry . she even moved into fairwinds with me and emily so she would n't have to run into him at the lakeview , him and his fiancée . will : all right . well , if she wanted to get away so bad , why would n't she just call us ? paul : because she felt sad . she probably felt foolish . she did n't want to explain herself to you . she did n't want you to have to worry about her . come on . will , she did not set out to disappoint you . she just took off . that 's all . she just ran . will : one more question . paul : what 's that ? will : are you on any meds ? 'cause you seem really calm right now . paul : am i -- actually , no . i 'm -- i 'm living a life pharmaceutically free . will : well , good for you . what 's with zen paul ? paul : i love my kid , i got a wife who likes spending time with me most of the time , and , come on , let 's face it , i spent most of my life making drama , and i think that it 's time for me to just have a little bit of peace in my life . will : and getting it dumped on you by james and mom . how 's that working out for you ? james is dead , but mom 's still around . paul : yeah , no . i know , and emily ca n't stand her . they ca n't stand each other , and emily has promised , when barbara gets back , that they 're gon na make nice . will : good luck with that . paul : will , you worry too much . mom 's probably lounging on that ship , watching the waves go gently by . [ scene_break ] barbara : okay ! so , tell me , my friend , how did i not see this before ? we 're jammed and we 're padlocked from the inside ! chuckles : you need to pop the lock , barbara . barbara : thanks . i would have thought of that eventually . okay , okay . i can get out of this thing . i can get out of this thing . i just have to find something really big , really big , that i can -- i can . not here . not here . oh .

[ scene_break ] henry : i want you to get some rest . remember how exhausted you were the last time . vienna : yeah , but this is not like last time . henry : why not ? vienna : because we 're married now , and -- and i do n't have to wonder about if -- if we 're gon na have more babies , because i know we will have more babies . henry : uh , in you go . vienna : okay . henry : easy , easy . when you wake up , we 'll go back to the doctor and get you checked out . vienna : all right . henry : do you need anything ? vienna : no . i 'm just gon na sleep , close my eyes , and forget that this day ever happened . henry : got to figure out what went wrong . i do n't want you going through this heartbreak ever again . vienna : whatever you say , henry . do you still love me ? henry : why would you ask that ? vienna : you 're not sorry you married me , now that there 's no baby ? henry : rest . i love you . i 'll come back and check on your , make sure you 're doing okay . vienna : okay . i love you , too .

[ scene_break ] rose : you and molly looked very close . was she bending your ear about the tv news ? dusty : no , i was actually bending hers . rose : about ? dusty : about this woman who dumped me who just kind of showed up . and -- i want her so bad . she rocked my world . you would n't believe it . rose : sounds like a babe . anybody i know ? dusty : oh , you 'd know her if you saw her . she 's beautiful . rose : really ? dusty : she 's smart . she 's a hustler . she 's a knockout in every way . what is it ? [ scene_break ] lily : is that what you told dusty , that you think paul appeared out of nowhere to save you from the jaws of death ? rose : no . lily : and what does that tell you ? rose : i do n't know . i do n't know what it tells me . i want you to tell me , 'cause you -- you are the expert here . lily : i am not an expert . rose : well , you sure sound like one . i mean , first , you tell me that my feelings for dusty , they 're not real . so tell me , why am i seeing paul ? lily : because you 're still in love with him , and you 're afraid to admit it . [ scene_break ] dusty : where are you , sweetheart ? what 's going on ? rose : i think lily was right , after all . dusty : about what ? rose : about you and me -- you and i staying away from each other . dusty : no , we belong together . and anyone who does n't see that does n't know a thing about either one of us . [ scene_break ] barbara : does n't she look fabulous ? the first time i saw her , she 's just more beautiful than ever . hal : and that she is . do you have any idea how long you 'll be staying ? jennifer : why , you trying to get rid of me ? hal : come on , nothing could be further from the truth . but i 'm not trying to pin you down . you do n't have to answer . jennifer : i 'm here to stay with my family , dad . could be a year , could be forever . barbara : how does that sound ? i have my daughter back , and my wonderful son here , too . and living without paul is so very hard , but now that we 're all together again , i think we can make it through . is n't that wonderful , hal ? [ scene_break ] susan : i wonder what 's taking alison so long . she must have stopped by to visit somebody on the way . emily : like who ? susan : oh , i do n't know , a patient , an orderly . you know how she is . anybody with a little gossip to trade is her new best friend . emily : you know what , mom ? it 's her 18th birthday . could you please not criticize alison today ? susan : that was just an observation , and a lighthearted one at that . where 's your sense of humor ? this is supposed to be a party . emily : well , it 's not a party until the guest of honor gets here . and are we positive chris is even coming ? how long are we supposed to sit around here while we wait , huh ? katie : i think chris is probably just saying good night to his dad . susan : that 's right . and as soon as he and alison get here , the only other person we have to wait for is rick . emily : rick ? do you realize how long it takes to check out of a hospital ? we could be waiting here all night . ca n't he just catch up with us later when he 's finished ? susan : we are not going anywhere without rick . he 'll be here in a minute . it 's no hardship to wait . katie : maybe i should go look for alison . i could probably speed her along . susan : uh , why do n't you do that ? emily is probably hungry . she always gets in a bad mood . katie : i 'll be right back . susan : you knew that rick was joining us . i do n't understand why you 're being so difficult . emily : well , you know what ? if you have n't figured it out by now , you have n't been paying much attention . susan : what are you saying that i do n't listen to other people ? [ emily sighs ] emily : i do n't want to fight with you , okay ? i 'm going to go find chris . i know how important rick is to you , but do n't expect me and alison to feel the way you do about him , okay ? [ scene_break ] [ screeching noises ] alison : katie ? that 's very funny , katie -- [ alison screams ] oh , my god , he 's trying to come in . chris ! it 's alison in the icu ! gordo 's trying to kill me ! alison : hello , chris ? ! no service ? how can you do this to me ! [ pounding ] i 'm not afraid of you , gordo ! people are going to be looking for me ! you better get out of here before -- before somebody finds you in here ! alison : no , as soon as i -- as soon as i leave this room , he 's going to stab me with a needle full of poison . how am i going to get out of here ? [ knock at door ] [ alison screams ] katie ? ! katie : alison ? ! what ? alison : did you see him ? katie : who ? alison : the -- the guy in the wheelchair , gordo . i was in here all by myself when i heard that squeak -- you know , the -- the screech - screech , and all the sudden ; there he was at the door , trying to come in . katie : wait , are you sure ? are you sure you heard something ? i mean , it could have been anyone . alison : no , i saw him . he was coming after me , and if i had n't slammed the door when i did -- [ katie and alison scream ] [ scene_break ] chris : hey , okay . birthday girls , let 's party . [ scene_break ] hal : do you have any idea where you 'll be staying while you 're here ? barbara : she 's going to be living with me . is n't that great news ? hal : you sure that 's going to work for you , jen ? i mean , you 've been living on your own an awful long time now . jennifer : yeah , i know , but i 'm ready for a change , you know ? and besides , i 'm a little short on cash , so mom 's letting me stay with her for free . hal : well , you could move in with me and emily . same deal . barbara : hal -- hal : i 'm just trying to give her some options , barbara . barbara : is that it , or are you trying to steal her away from me ? jennifer : oh , okay , stop it , okay ? i promise to spend as much time with both of you as i can . but , dad , going home seems like going backwards to me . you know , so i think i 'll be a lot happier at the lakeview . hal : fine . i respect your decision , and i will not bring it up again . jennifer : i missed you so much , dad . i 'm glad to see you have n't changed . hal : oh , wait , wait , wait . i 'm a lot meaner than i used to be . [ laughter ] will : he 's not kidding . hal : you stay out of this . and can i have a word with you ? nothing important . i 'd just like to ask you a couple of questions . barbara : sure , if it does n't take too long . the kids and i have dinner plans . hal : i thought jennifer was doing very well in europe . what happened to all her money ? barbara : i have no idea . i have n't heard the whole story , but she 's here for awhile . i 'm sure i will . hal : look , barbara , i know you want what 's best for her , but please be careful . if you push too hard , you 're going to chase her straight back to europe . barbara : why do you always assume that i 'm going to do the wrong thing ? hal : i 'm sorry . i did not mean to insult you , i really did n't . you know we both want the same thing -- just to make jennifer feel at home again . barbara : yeah . yeah , you 're right . and i just have to be careful not to fawn over her . and there were a lot times that i felt that she 'd never want to speak to me again , so -- hal : well , so -- so go easy . accept the fact that jennifer knows how much you love her , and if you feel yourself trying to score points with her , just step back , barbara . let -- let her take the lead , you know ? jennifer : sorry i could n't be here when you were in trouble , kiddo . life was kind of crazy . i just could n't get away . will : it 's all right . i got your letters , though . jennifer : yeah ? did you like them ? will : no , not really . they made me kind of sad . jennifer : why ? will : 'cause you 're spelling really stinks . [ jennifer laughs ] jennifer : oh , be careful , i can still beat you up , you know ? will : can not . jennifer : just you wait . will : so you 're really going to stay ? barbara : of course she is . jennifer 's going to be with us for a long , long time -- that is , if she chooses to . right ? jennifer : right . barbara : wonderful . i 'm glad we all understand each other . so , you kids ready to go ? hmm ? jennifer : oh , yeah , dad -- will you come with us ? i 'd love to have you for dinner . hal : oh , i ca n't do it tonight , hon . but tell you what -- i 'll call you tomorrow . we 'll make some great plans . welcome -- welcome home . jennifer : thanks , dad . hal : hey , and will 's got a big day at camp tomorrow . try not to keep him out too late . barbara : promise . shall we ? jennifer : bye . hal : bye . later . cop : got a message on the surveillance on dr. gordon . hal : what ? cop : i do n't know what happened , but he 's disappeared . hal : call our guys at the hospital . put them on alert . could be our killer 's going back to work . [ scene_break ] walker : hi . bonnie : hi . thanks for coming . walker : my pleasure . although i -- i have a feeling the invitation was n't strictly social . bonnie : it was n't . i want to hire you to be sarah 's doctor . walker : you could hire anybody , bonnie . why me ? bonnie : 'cause i looked you up on the internet . not only do you specialize in forensics , but you also specialize in rare diseases . walker : did another doctor give you the impression that 's what sarah has ? bonnie : she has n't seen another doctor , but you know that these fevers have been occurring for a long time now , and if it were something routine , she would have already been diagnosed . walker : not necessarily . bonnie : but probably , right ? walker : bonnie , we 've talked about the complications here . sarah 's a ward of the state . i 'm not even sure she can have a private physician . i mean , her doctor may have to be part of some special network . bonnie : here 's my bottom line , dr. daniels . sarah needs medical attention , and i 'm going to help her get it , one way or another . walker : are you prepared to fight the system ? bonnie : more like willing to work with it . she needs treatment , and i 'm willing to do whatever it takes to help her get it . that includes adopting her . [ scene_break ] isaac : ben means a lot to me , which is why i 'm so determined not to see him hurt again . jessica : well , ben means a lot to me , too , isaac , and i do n't want to see him hurt , either . is n't it wonderful that we agree on something ? isaac : yes , it is which is why i need to ask you -- do you plan on marrying my brother ? jessica : i 'm not discussing that with you . isaac : why not ? jessica : because first of all , it 's private . and secondly -- secondly , i do n't know myself . isaac : are you having second thoughts ? well , then , you 've got to tell him for his own good . jessica : isaac , ben and i are having some problems , okay ? they 're serious , and we 're trying to resolve them . isaac : problems about what ? that man would do anything for you . jessica : i know that . i know that ben loves me , and i love him , and i want to express that love to him . but -- for reasons beyond my control right now , i just ca n't do that . isaac : because you were raped . jessica : yeah . isaac : i 'm sorry . i know that 's got to be rough on both of you . jessica : i thought i could get past it , you know , but -- i do n't know . you know , i just -- i just do n't know . isaac : you have come a long way , you know ? i mean , you and ben have been through -- it 'd be a shame to give up now . jessica : well , it 's not what i want , for ben or for me . isaac : hey . see this ring ? it 's a promise , to ben and to yourself . and it says that no matter what happens , ups , downs , goods , bads , you go through it together . but you 've got to fight for it if that 's what you want , jessica . [ scene_break ] dusty : you know what ? i could care less about what lily and holden think about us being together . there are n't a lot of things in this life that i fight for , and i 'm looking at one of them . rose : being with you means i lose lily and my family . no man is worth losing all of that . dusty : they 're all going to cool off when they figure out what we mean to each other . rose : they do n't like you . they think you 're poison . dusty : fantastic ! who cares what they think or what they want you to do ? ! this is your life ! you 've got to own it ! sorry . do you want me in your life ? rose : yes . god , i do want you . i want you so bad . i do n't want to know where i stop and you begin , okay ? dusty : do n't you see what that is ? not everybody gets close to that . that 's a gift . what are you going to do , walk away from it ? i do n't think so . we 've got to hold onto it . rose : you 're right . i ca n't let you go . dusty : why do n't you come upstairs with me , let me show you how much you mean to me ? rose : okay . one condition . dusty : what ? rose : we keep it secret . i want to be with you , dusty , but nobody can know about it . okay ? [ scene_break ] ben : anybody told you that you look particularly tasty tonight ? jessica : oh , no , you are the first . so how did you know i was here ? ben : oh , well , you know , i was just feeling the vibe , you know ? and when you 're vibing -- of course , it did n't hurt that -- jessica : isaac . ben : -- isaac called me . jessica : yeah , yeah . mm - hmm . what did he tell you ? ben : well , he told me that you were sitting here alone , being eyed by a room full of players , and if i wanted to keep you , i 'd better get on down here . jessica : are there other men here ? i had n't even noticed . [ scene_break ] walker : i appreciate the fact that you want to get treatment for sarah , but i have a commitment to the hospital , bonnie . i ca n't take on other work . bonnie : well , it 's not exactly work . i 'd like for you to do it for free . walker : wow . um , that -- that 's quite the incentive . do i get to work long hours , too ? bonnie : well , that depends . walker : on what ? bonnie : on whether or not you 're as good as your reputation says you are . she 's suffering , dr. daniels , and that does n't sit well with me . i 'm sure you feel the same way . walker : no doctor likes to see people in pain , especially when they think they can help . bonnie : yes , but you 're not your average doctor . no , from what i can see , you are compassionate and courageous , and you understand what 's important in life . walker : did you ever sell life insurance , bonnie ? bonnie : no . walker : used cars ? bonnie : no . walker : well , you should think about it . you 're a natural . bonnie : does that mean you 'll help her ? walker : it means that i will try . bonnie : good , good . great , okay . okay , so let me know everything you need to get the job done . walker : blood work . bonnie : okay . walker : sarah 's medical history , as far back as you can . bonnie : okay , consider it done .

[ scene_break ] dusty : you want us to sneak around ? no , i 'm sorry . that 's not going to do it for me . rose : not sneaking around . just something we keep between us , that 's all . dusty : for how long ? rose : until i can convince lily that she 's wrong about us . dusty : so what , are we going to be hiding , worrying about people seeing us , what they may be thinking ? i 'm not doing this , not now . what , are you kidding me ? rose : you do n't understand . people out there , they 'll think we 're being callous about paul 's death . dusty : since when do you care what people think ? you know what ? it 's not this town . it 's not lily . it 's you . you 're ashamed of how you feel about me . rose : no ! no , you 're wrong . i 'm ashamed of what happened with paul , what we did . dusty : we 're in this together . do n't you understand ? rose , if i could bring back paul , i would . but that 's not going to happen . rose : maybe you do n't have to try to bring him back . maybe he 's already here . dusty : what are you talking about ? rose : lily thinks i 'm out of my mind . maybe she 's right . that 's why i never told you this . dusty : told me what ? rose : i saw him . i saw paul . i saw him . dusty : you saw him in a dream . rose : no , no -- live . i do n't know . maybe it 's my way of holding onto him , but it seemed real . the way you 're looking at me right now , it 's the same thing . i ca n't get his picture out of my head . dusty : it 's okay . it 's all right . slow down , slow down , slow down , slow down . maybe you did -- see someone . maybe you did . but it was n't paul . rose : i did . when he saved my life . [ scene_break ] susan : it 's okay now , baby . nobody 's going to hurt you . alison : that 's what nurse krebs probably thought , too , before she wound up dead . hal : how long ago did this happen ? alison : um , 20 minutes ? i do n't -- i do n't know . maybe more . hal : did you see the man 's face , alison ? alison : i was too scared to look , but i know he was coming after me . i -- i shut the door , and then i put a cart against , and i put all my weight against it , but he kept trying to get in , and i tried to call for help , but my -- my phone would n't work . susan : hal , can we do this another time ? she 's very upset . i 'd like to take her home . hal : i 'm sorry . i ca n't let you do that , susan . for the time being , nobody either enters or leaves this hospital . alison : hal , but it 's my birthday . susan : we were going to give her a party . alison : you were ? susan : oh . emily : well , it was supposed to be a surprise . hal : and i do n't want to get in the way of that , but right now , this is the best chance we have of finding whoever it was you saw . susan : well , my patients are going to get frantic if they see the police traipsing up and down the halls . could -- could you keep an eye on her ? i need to drop in and take a look at some patients . alison : i 'll be fine , mom . susan : do n't leave her alone . chris : i got ta go check on my dad again . hal : chris , there was a guard outside bob 's room . i 'm sure he 's fine . chris : well , me , too . i just want to see for myself . it 's all over now , okay ? there 's no need to be afraid . alison : i 'll try to remember that . chris : i 'll catch up with you later . hal : i heard your attacker was dr. gordon . alison : well , i think it was . he had his sweatshirt pulled up , so i could n't really see his face , but who else could it be ? gordo already proved how angry he was the other day when he grabbed me and accused me of trying to ruin his life . emily : can -- can we talk about this someplace else ? maybe we can go to the waiting room or something , okay ? hal : sure . i do n't see why not . come on , alison . i 'll buy you a drink . alison : i am 18 . emily : uh -- soda . hal : buy you a soda . emily : yeah .

[ scene_break ] bob : you 're due on the floor . lucy : i 'll be there in a minute . bob : whatever issues you have you have because of jennifer 's death , get past them , dr. montgomery -- now . kim : our beloved jennifer is alive now in every happy memory we have of her . she is alive in johnny . so hold her , not in her grave , but in your hearts . hold her in beauty . hold her in joy . hold her presence now and forever throughout all time and space . minister : and now jennifer 's mother , barbara , will say a few words . barbara : i ca n't do this . i ca n't do this . will : i 'll do it . ever since -- ever since we knew how sick jen really was , i was n't sure why i could n't say good - bye to her . i never could imagine a world without jen . she was always the one constant in my life . when everybody sort of gave up on me , she did n't . when i doubted myself , she believed in me . from the day i was born , she was always looking out for me and protecting me . it 's no secret that our family is not perfect . i think we 've all hurt each other more than we 'd like to admit . but jen never hurt first and apologized later . her last words to me were , `` be happy . `` i ca n't -- not now . but i 'm going to try . i 'm going to try for johnny , to be a good uncle to him . and a brother to dusty . i guess what i 'm trying to say is that from now on , i 'm going to try to -- try to not hurt first and apologize later . jen was the best part about this family . and i 'm not going to say good - bye to her . not now . not ever . paul : i did n't think i was going to get a chance to honor my sister today . but jennifer always saw the best in people and never the worst . which is why [ scene_break ] coming up on `` as the world turns `` -- [ simon grunts ] casey : i love you . i do n't know what 's going on , but please do n't run away from me . maddie : do n't touch me . [ scene_break ] paul : i think it 's tragic that someone would leave this world right after figuring out why we 're all here to begin with . when johnny came into jennifer 's life , i think jennifer finally -- finally felt like she had found her true purpose . and i interfered with that . i did a horrible wrong to jennifer and to johnny . and yet jennifer forgave me . and now there 's no way i can make it up to her . there 's no way i can repay her for her final act of forgiveness . except to try and live by the example that she has set . but jennifer set a really high bar as a sister and a daughter and a parent . as a parent , jennifer understood that the most important thing is being selfless . i guess i have a lot to learn . i have to figure out the difference between doing the right thing and trying to control everybody 's lives . but i will not bend and i will not waver just the way jennifer would not waver for when it came to protecting johnny . because if i can do that -- if i can put my child 's life first , no matter what , then maybe jennifer will look down on me and be half as proud of me as i am of her . [ scene_break ] bob : if you intend to stay in this profession , you 'd better get used to making tough choices . what you did was ethical . if it had n't been , i would have dismissed you from this hospital immediately . but it was costly and unpopular , and some think it was wrong . personally , i have opinions about how it could have been handled , but that would n't allow us to move forward . and that 's exactly what we have to do -- both of us . now if you 'll excuse me , i 'm due at my niece 's memorial service . [ scene_break ] lisa : anyone who had the privilege of knowing barbara 's mother , jennifer , the way i did , would know that her granddaughter -- her granddaughter was her namesake , was just exactly like her . she was charming and beautiful and gracious and kind . and our jennifer did nothing but generate joy to all of us all the time . but it was actually little johnny who completed that joy . i just ca n't begin to tell you how much it meant to me , everyday , to see jennifer and johnny coming in and out of lakeview . oh , it just [ scene_break ] casey : maddie , wait . maddie ! maddie : leave me alone . casey : no . i know you do n't want that , maddie . i know it . i love you , and i do n't know what 's going on , but please do n't run away from me . maddie : do n't touch me , okay ? do n't ever touch me again . casey : maddie !

craig : of course i do . rosanna : well , then you have to make sure that she gets herself into a rehab . jack : why do n't -- why do n't you see to her release from here ? rosanna and i will do some research . we 'll find a facility that can take carly right away and start making preliminary arrangements . but we all have to be together on this . if we are , then i 'm pretty sure that carly will see that this is for the best . she has got to get better for her children . craig : i agree . jack : good . we 'll get the ball rolling . you bring carly back to her place , and then we can take it from there . rosanna : and no matter what she says , you know what she needs , do n't you ?

[ scene_break ] maddie : okay , yeah , i was at crash . but , i left before casey 's set finished , and that was before the fire . jade : then why did you lie ? maddie : why get involved with the police for no reason ? jade : you 're not as smart as you look , because lying to the police is a sure way to get involved . if they question me , who was there , and who i saw , i 'm not lying . maddie : oh , right , i forgot you are all about the truth , right , jade ? please , you rode into town on a lie , and you 've been lying ever since . maybe i should tell the police to crank up the polygraph machine , because for all anyone knows , you set the fire . jade : do n't even . look , i do n't know what you did or why you did it , but do n't try to hang it on me ? uh - uh . that is so not going to happen . [ scene_break ] cass : your honor , this report contains no surprises . the emily stewart seated here today is as sane as you or i . what this document fails to do , is give us any insight into her mental state at a very difficult time in her life . so , we 're left to ask our own questions , and draw our own conclusions . what kind of woman kidnaps a man and holds him prisoner , and then risks , not only her own life , but that of her unborn child to save that man 's baby ? the first is an act of a desperately troubled woman . the second , a selfless act of mercy . cynics may claim that emily did this to save herself , but i 'm here to tell you , my client 's sole motivation was to save a child 's life and at no time did she ask for or expect any mercy in return .

[ scene_break ] judge : ms. stewart , would you please stand ? it is to your credit that you have expressed sincere remorse for your wrongdoing . and you saved the life of a child . that in itself is no small thing . but as the district attorney pointed out , good deeds and regrets do not mitigate charges of kidnapping and attempted murder . it 's therefore my ruling that you enter a plea on these charges and be remanded back into police custody until such time as a court date can be set . emily : no . cass : your honor , i need a moment to confer with my client before we enter a plea . judge : all right , mr. winthrop , but be brief . cass : thank you . meg : you won . paul : we did . meg : we won . let 's go . paul : okay . cass : this was not unexpected . getting the judge to buy that you were insane was a long shot at best and did n't pay off . but , it was only out first roll of the dice . emily : okay , what are you saying ? that i have other options ? cass : limited , but yeah . i had breakfast with tom this morning . and the d.a .

[ chuckles ] but not while we 're here . carly : oh , of course not . i know that jack 's a real stickler for the rules . janet : boy , i noticed , huh ? hm ! carly : i bet you noticed a lot . janet : well , one thing i did notice -- i seem to have a real weakness for snyder men . but if anybody understands that , it 's you , right ? carly : what do you mean by that ? janet : well , you , me , katie -- we 've all been with brad and jack both . carly : is there a point in there somewhere that you 're trying to make ? janet : i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to offend you . carly : that 's okay . no harm done . i 'll make other arrangements for parker . it appears you have your hands full here . [ jack sighs ] jack : carly , wait . hold on a second . what are you so upset about ? carly : i 'm not . jack : could have fooled me . carly : it 's just so predictable -- you getting busy with your brother 's ex . you and brad trade girlfriends like baseball cards . it 's pathetic . jack : that is not what 's happening . carly : oh , that 's right , because you and janet are just friends -- with bennies , so i 'm told . jack : oh , i see . you 're jealous of janet . carly : no , i 'm not . it 's just weird . jack : yeah . parker thinks so , too . carly : well , there 's a good reason for you not to stay with him while i 'm gone . jack : parker is my son . i can take care of him . and why are you going away , anyway ? you just got metro back up on its feet . what 's so urgent ? carly : paris . jack : you 're kidding . carly : do i look like i 'm kidding ? jack : that 's a pretty pricey trip . you going by yourself ? carly : no . i 'm going with neal . jack : like hell you are . [ scene_break ] holden : what you and carly do is your business . neal : i agree . but i get the impression it 's not that clear - cut for you . holden : really ? why is that ? neal : well , you were more than a bit dodgy at , shall we say , our truncated dinner last night , and you seem rather hostile even now . holden : look , if i offended you , i 'm sorry . i do n't know what else to say . neal : why do n't you try that old - fashioned plain speaking you americans are famous for ? holden : i have been honest with you all along . neal : i do n't think so . last night , i got the distinct impression you were n't too happy that carly had agreed to go to paris with me . holden : i do n't know where you got that idea . it appears you 're dead wrong . and i hope that 's the kind of plain speaking that you 're looking for because i 'm getting sick and tired of talking about this . janet : this kitchen is fabulous , but do you have a whisk ? jack : i 'm sorry . janet , could you just give us just a minute , please ? janet : oh , well , i was just about to make you my famous ricotta pancakes . you know me -- ricotta , will travel . yeah . never mind . uh , i 'm just gon na go upstairs and get dressed then . carly : that 's a good idea . janet : yeah , for such a hot day , it suddenly became very chilly in here . jack : do n't . do n't start . carly : what ? i did n't say a word about that cheesy thing she 's wearing . [ jack laughs ] is that the kind of thing you 're going for these days , jack ? jack : not that it 's any of your business , but janet has her own room here now . carly : okay . but for when emma gets back , i do n't think she 's gon na be fooled by appearances . i know i 'm not . jack : i 'm not denying a thing , carly . but a few dates with janet is vastly different from jetting off to europe with some smooth - talking hugh grant wannabe . what are the kids gon na think ? carly : j.j. and sage wo n't even know i 'm gone . and parker will be too busy being traumatized by the image of you shacking up with liberty 's mother . jack : or he could be traumatized by the fact that his mother is abandoning him again . carly : that is absolutely not what i 'm doing . and you have no right to tell me what to do . jack : oh , come on ! this is simon frasier all over again , carly . carly : neal is nothing like simon . he is a legitimate businessman and probably like the last man on earth to become a wanted fugitive . jack : how the hell do you know that ? have you run a background check on him ? carly : no , jack , i 'll leave that up to you . and if you ca n't find any skeletons in his closet , maybe you can invent some . god forbid i have a relationship that might actually go somewhere ! jack : oh , so you admit it 's a relationship ! carly : not that it 's any of your business , but i will have my own separate room in paris , just like you and janet down on the farm . jack : and what about your club ? who 's running metro while you 're gone ? carly : it -- it 's not forever . it 's just for a couple of weeks . it 'll be fine . jack : okay , and you explained all this to parker ? carly : yes , of course i did . jack : and what did he say ? carly : what he always says -- `` fine , whatever . `` jack : that means he hates the idea . carly : i was hoping that you could look after parker while i 'm gone . but since you 're otherwise engaged , i will find someone else to look after our son . enjoy your ricotta pancakes . jack : hey , leave janet out of this , please . carly : not a chance ! i do n't want you and your new girlfriend hanging around in my house . and do n't even think about bringing parker here while the two of you are tiptoeing between your private rooms . jack : wow , i am surprised you 're even leaving parker here in the first place ! it 'd be just like you to drag him off to paris with you and your new prince charming . do n't . do n't try getting holier - than - thou with me , carly , you of all people . [ scene_break ] chris : i think you need to read this again , dad . bob : no , no , i got it all . you apologized for exposing this hospital to a potentially serious lawsuit , and then you described in detail what really happened . chris : right . i misled you and tom both . bob : yes , you did . you swore that you did n't use your influence to have alison removed from the nursing program , when , in fact , that 's exactly what you did . chris : and why should i get away with that ? bob : you should n't get away with it . reparations should be made . chris : that 's why i 'm resigning , dad , because if i did n't , you 'd have to fire me . bob : that 's not true . you know , you did at least one thing right . you stood up and admitted that you 'd made a mistake . chris : yeah , but it 's too late , dad . bob : maybe not . you have made some serious mistakes , son , but you 've always taken responsibility for them . you 're a fine physician . i 'd hate to see you throw away a career . chris : oh , i 'm not gon na give up my medical license , dad , but , you know , i need to put some distance between myself and this hospital . i ca n't have you defending me all the time . bob : maybe that 's a father 's job . chris : but it 's not the job of the chief of staff . i know you have to accept this . [ bob sighs ] bob : so what do you plan to do ? chris : i 'm not sure . try my luck someplace besides oakdale , maybe . bob : your mother wo n't be happy about that . chris : oh , well -- bob : neither am i . chris : dad , i have n't made up my mind yet about the future . i 'll have to think it over . bob : of course you do . you know , son , if i inadvertently made things tough for you , put more stress on you here , i 'm sorry . it was unintentional . i know it 's -- its really tough having your father as your boss . chris : everything that happened , dad , was n't because of anything you did . it was me . bob : you know , i 've always -- i 've always wanted the best for you . and if i made this difficult , i 'm sorry . can i change your mind about this ? chris : no , i know i 'm doing the right thing . but i do have one request . it 's about alison . bob : do n't worry about that . i 've already taken care of it . [ scene_break ] alison : if you 're trying to sweeten me up , it 's not going to work , not today . aaron : forget the letter from chris , okay , because there 's no way he can ever make up for what he did to you . alison : i know . i just -- well , i just wish things could have been different . aaron : all right , well , listen -- do n't obsess over it , okay ? you need to focus on your future . alison : what future ? aaron : you need to make a big change in your life . listen , if you want , we can always -- we can always go back to seattle and , you know , try over if you want . alison : you would -- you would do that for me ? aaron : yeah , i would . alison : aaron , that is -- that is really sweet . but , uh , that would sort of be like running away , you know ? aaron : yeah , that would n't be good . alison : no , no , it would n't . aaron : no , it would n't . alison : and , uh , if i 'm gon na try to get my life together , i need to do it here , where i let things get all messed up in the first place . aaron : right . what are you gon na do ? alison : i wish i knew . [ cell phone ringing ] oh , it 's -- oh , it must be work . hello ? oh , hi . yeah , okay , uh , i 'll -- i 'll be right there . bye . aaron : who was that ? alison : brenda manning . aaron : the same brenda that got you kicked out of nursing school ? alison : yeah . she said she wants me to meet her at the hospital right away . aaron : well , how come ? alison : i do n't know , but it sounded important . [ scene_break ] lucinda : your mom tells me you 're thinking about moving in together ? ohh , why the long faces ? something to do with the envelope in your hand ? it 's not bad news , i hope . luke : you know what ? we do n't know what it is . it 's just something from the grimaldi family . lucinda : oh . you mean a -- a missive from dear old dad ? luke : you know , i 'm -- i 'm not interested at all in what this says . i want nothing to do with damian , nothing to do with that family . lily : what if there 's something in there that you really should know about ? luke : i do n't care . i 'm not interested . lucinda : well , i am ! i really -- i do n't understand you people . i really do n't understand this lack of curiosity , for heaven 's -- for heaven 's sake . ooh . lily : what ? lucinda : look who it 's from . lily : what does it say ? lucinda : oh , my darling , i think that dad wants to make amends in a big way . yes . [ scene_break ] jack : kind of a double standard , do n't you think ? you getting to pass judgment on who i 'm dating while you 're jetting off to europe with some rich guy you met five minutes ago ? carly : i never said you could n't date janet . and if she invited you to paris , would you turn her down ? jack : yes . yes , carly , i would . carly : oh , i see . so separate rooms in an amazing parisian flat -- that 's a no - no . but sharing a bathroom at the snyder farm with your brother 's aging prom date -- that 's okay . jack : oh , would you s -- would you stop putting her down , please ? carly : no , not until you stop comparing neal to simon . i know this trip seems sudden and impetuous , but i really needed to get away , and neal made me an offer that i could n't refuse . jack : what else did he offer you , carly ? carly : like i said , i 'll find somebody else to look after parker . thanks for nothing . [ scene_break ] holden : carly has a right to go to paris with whoever she wants . in fact , my wife and i could n't be happier for her . neal : i 'm glad you feel that way . holden : how long do you think you 'll be gone ? neal : only a couple of weeks . carly has to get back home for the children . holden : of course . then you will be coming back with her ? you have business interests all across the world , right ? neal : actually , if things go the way i hope , i may be spending some more time in oakdale . i mean , who knows ? if i do decide to stay , i may start developing a polo field . you can provide the horses . [ cell phone ringing ] holden : lily , what 's up ? lily : listen , i am -- i 'm sorry to bother you , but could you come back to the house right away ? holden : yeah , sure . what 's going on ? lily : we 've got a situation here . and luke really needs his father right now . holden : okay . all right , i 'll be right there . i got to go . have a good trip . neal : i 'm sure i will . [ scene_break ] aaron : hey , back so soon ? what did brenda want ? alison : they 're letting me back into the nursing program . aaron : are you serious ? well , why the 180 ? alison : guess . aaron : no way . so first chris gets you kicked out , and now he tries to get brenda to bring you back in ? alison : it 's the only explanation . i mean , brenda certainly would n't decide to do this on her own . aaron : oh , i love this guy . [ alison chuckles ] he 's got a guilty conscience so he tries to wave his wand and make it all go away . that 's just -- alison : yeah , well , it 's not gon na be that easy . aaron : whoa , whoa , whoa . where you going ? alison : where do you think ? aaron : no , i 'm going with you . hold on . i 'm -- i 'm gon na go with you . alison : no . no . i need to this on my own . [ scene_break ] jack : okay , listen , i do n't want to -- [ sighs ] i do n't want to fight with you about this . we -- we 're both trying to move on with our lives , and while we do n't agree with each other 's choices , i know that there 's no way i can change your mind about anything . you 're gon na take off with this neal guy whether i like it or not . carly : that 's right . i did n't come here for your approval . jack : yeah , and i 'm not gon na stand in your way . carly : because you ca n't . jack : do me one favor , though . do n't send parker to stay with some -- some neighbor . i can stay at your house until you return . carly : and what about janet ? jack : do n't worry about janet . i 'll deal with it . carly : okay . thank you , jack . i 'll see you later . [ jack sighs ] janet : gee , i could n't help but overhear . so , how are you going to deal with me , detective ? [ scene_break ] [ carly sighs ] [ carly remembering ] carly : do me a favor , all right ? do n't say any -- holden : no , i think i should go on the record here . i do n't want to see you throwing yourself into a relationship just because of what happened between us . carly : i 'm not throwing myself into anything . holden : do n't you think that neal is offering a little bit more than you 're ready for ? carly : tell me something . what exactly are you offering ? [ scene_break ] neal : carly ! i thought i saw your car . i 'm afraid there 's been a slight change of plan . carly : should i not pack for paris ? neal : by all means , do . but we 'll have to make a layover in new york first . i 've some business to clear up . it should n't take long . i 've booked two rooms at the 9 muses on the park . we 'll head straight to the airport from there . carly : sounds perfect . i 'm gon na head home to pack . neal : i 'll come with you . i 'm an expert at folding things so they do n't wrinkle . carly : can you do that with a linen dress ? neal : i 'll try . [ carly chuckles ] carly : bye , holden . take care . [ scene_break ] [ knocking on door ] chris : ooh , that was fast . sorry , i thought you were room service . alison : this is what i think of your apology . what , you think you can write me a pathetic little note and that would make up for the way you lied in court ? chris : i did n't lie , actually . alison : oh , no , no , no , no . you were too careful for that . but the result was still the same . you still ruined what was left of my reputation . chris : i know i hurt you , ali . i 'm just trying to make up for it . alison : oh , yeah . yeah , right . so how much did you have to pay brenda to take me back ? chris : i did n't bribe brenda , if that 's what you think , okay ? the truth is you did n't flunk out . it was a judgment call , and i did n't speak to brenda . my father did . alison : this was bob 's idea ? chris : yeah . when i told him the truth about everything , he thought it was in the best interest of the hospital to reinstate you immediately . it 's the right thing to do , ali , just like it was right of him to accept my resignation . [ scene_break ] kim : so you could n't change his mind ? bob : i tried , but chris felt that he had to resign . [ kim sighs ] kim : well , maybe it 's for the best -- i mean , if he separates himself from what happened with alison . bob : well , i -- i feel , uh , responsible that i chased my own son away because i expected too much . kim : oh , honey , come on . he 's made a lot of mistakes , and you stood by him . you could n't have been more supportive . the thing is , he 's just got some issues , and he 's got to work those through himself , by himself . what he needs now is a really fresh start . bob : even if it means moving away ? kim : i -- i hope that does n't happen . [ scene_break ] alison : so you resigned . what , is that supposed to make me feel better ? chris : i thought that 's what you wanted . alison : it 's a little too late , do n't you think ? chris : yeah , probably is . [ chris sighs ] i really hope you go back to nursing school , ali . alison : why ? so you can stop feeling guilty ? chris : i 'd just like to think in some small way i can make this up to you . alison : well , you ca n't . chris : hey -- i know you hate me right now , okay , but -- but please do n't you dare give up a career you love to get back at me . the choice of what you do with your future should n't be about me or anybody else . it should only be about you and what you want to do with the rest of your life . i wish you the best , ali . i really do . [ alison sighs ] [ scene_break ] janet : nothing like your ex dropping by to start the day off with a bang . [ jack chuckles ] so , when you said you 'd deal with me , was that a good thing ? jack : no , what i -- what i meant to say was that i was planning on explaining the situation to you , and i figured you 'd understand . janet : understand what ? jack : well , carly is taking off for paris for a couple of weeks , and she wants me to move into her house to take care of parker , as opposed to him staying in some neighbor 's house . and i really want to do it 'cause he 's had a lot of issues lately , and i think he needs his dad . janet : of course he does . i mean , i have a teenage daughter myself . you know that . but the good news is i can help you because i do n't know if you 've noticed , but i can cook . oh , yeah , baby , i 'm pretty good in the kitchen . and i can make sure that you and parker have a decent meal every night and a decent breakfast every morning . jack : okay , janet -- janet : and listen -- the two of us , we can explain to parker that -- that us seeing each other , it 's not the end of the world , you know ? jack : time out , okay ? i do n't think you heard what i said . i 'm moving there , not you . [ scene_break ] lily : damian has apparently authorized a portion of luke 's inheritance to be transferred to him . lucinda : a very large portion . luke : if i choose to accept it , which i 'm not going to because i do n't want that money . lucinda : darling , you must think about this . think what you could -- you could do something wonderful . for heaven 's sake , would you speak to your son , please , holden ? lily : mother ! lucinda : darling , i ca n't help it . i 'm a businesswoman . we 're talking about real money here -- in euros , for heaven 's sake . luke : look , i do n't care if it 's a fortune . to me , it 's dirty money . lucinda : i -- i know , darling . you do n't want to feel indebted to damian because he mistreated you , but at the same time , you can think about what you can do with this money , how you can make it work for you , make something constructive ! lily : i think luke should stick to his guns . do n't you agree , holden ? holden : i think it 's up to luke . luke : i think i need to get some air . noah : all right , i need to get some air , too . lucinda : gee whiz , i hope he makes the right decision . lily : so do i , mother . but luke does n't need this money . all of our children have a wonderful trust fund from you . lucinda : yes , darling , but that makes them comfortable , and that 's nice , but this -- this is different ! lily : yeah . yeah , it 's like a bribe . i think he should turn it down . lucinda : i utterly disagree with you . lily : i 'm sure holden agrees with me . holden : i 'm sorry . what ? lucinda : what ? lily : holden , this is important . where are you ? what is going on ? holden : i 'm just tired . i did n't get much sleep last night . lily : why ? are you not feeling well ? holden : no , no , i 'm fine . i 'm fine . um , listen , i really do n't think we should argue about this . it 's luke 's decision , and he needs to make it . i left my cell in the car . i 'm gon na go grab it . i 'll be right back . [ lily sighs ] lucinda : um , what 's his problem ? he does n't seem like himself today . lily : yeah , i do n't know . he -- he had a meltdown last night . he completely lost it . carly and neal had to leave our dinner party . lucinda : a meltdown ? holden ? what 's the problem today ? lily : well , i know he 's worried about meg , and especially since paul was arrested . lucinda : well , let me tell you -- the worldwide board is n't thrilled by that , either . and , honey , are you all right ? everything generally better now that he 's moved back in ? everything 's good ? lily : definitely , definitely closer , mother , but obviously something else is still bothering him . lucinda : you need to find out what it is . lily : yeah , i 'm trying , but so far he has n't given me a single clue . [ scene_break ] holden : come on . pick up . pick up . [ cell phone ringing ] [ scene_break ] neal : in my experience , a glass of wine always makes packing much more enjoyable . carly : that sounds wonderful . neal : a ' 96 bordeaux should put us in the mood for all things french . [ carly chuckles ] neal : un tire - bouchon , s'il vous plait ? carly : huh ? neal : corkscrew . carly : oh ! [ both laugh ] it sounds much more romantic in french . neal : everything always does . carly : here you are , monsieur . neal : merci beaucoup . [ cell phone ringing ] do you need to get that ? carly : uh , no , um , if i do n't start packing soon , we 'll never make our flight . neal : ah , first of all , let 's have a toast to the perfect trip . voila . salut . carly : mmm . [ scene_break ] jack : mmm . amazing . janet : it 's the ricotta . it 's very subtle . that 's the secret . see what you 're gon na miss when you move out of here and leave me here to pluck the cows and milk the chickens ? jack : oh , this could be a problem . janet : yeah , you 're telling me ! i 'm no farmhand . jack : listen , i 'm sorry . it 's just that i think it 's better for parker if i 'm back there by myself . janet : why ? he 's no dummy . he already knows we 're an item . jack : true , but he 's kind of confused right now . the last thing i want to do is throw it in his face . besides , he 's probably not all that happy knowing that his mother took off for paris with a guy she hardly knows . janet : well , he 's got to learn about life sometime . jack : oh , believe me , he 's learned enough . the last thing i want him to be thinking about right now is sex . janet : oh , come on , jack . he 's a teenager . that 's all they think about . and you tell me what 's wrong with him thinking his father is entitled to a good , healthy sex life . come on , jack ! lighten up . [ scene_break ] noah : here you go . luke : oh , thank you . so tell me -- do you agree with my grandmother ? do you think i 'm crazy to turn down all this money ? noah : um , i think you 'll do the right thing . luke : well , that 's a great dodge , but that 's not an answer . noah , come on . tell me the truth . i trust your opinion . noah : well , i do n't know . maybe -- maybe giving you all this money is a way for your bio dad to try and make things better between you two . luke : yeah , well , if he wants a father / son relationship , that is not gon na happen . noah : look , look , you could be right . it could be all one big ulterior motive . but what if it 's not ? i mean , what if you blow off this money and pass up on the only opportunity you guys have to make a real connection , you know ? and down the line , you could regret that . it might be too late . [ scene_break ] kim : you okay ? chris : great . kim : good , because that was a very brave thing you did . i mean , admitting you were wrong , apologizing to alison -- that was good . chris : dad must have told you i resigned from the hospital . kim : yep , he did . and he was disappointed , but , oh , boy , was he proud of you ! and me , too . and no matter where you go , we are both behind you all the way . chris : well , to be honest , mom , i have no idea what i should do or where i should go next . but i just got finished telling alison not to run away and not to give up , so , you know , i think i 'll take my own advice . besides , you know , i 'm not gon na leave now .

[ chris chuckles ] [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] alison : well , you gave me another chance , and i appreciate it . thanks again . bye . aaron : you 're going back to nursing school ? what made you change your mind ? alison : actually , uh , chris did . he made me realize that if this is what i wanted all along , the last thing i should do is give up on it now . and , you know , i -- i think i have a really good shot at being a good nurse . aaron : well , then , for once i agree with chris -- [ alison laughs ] because if you 're smiling , that 's all that matters . alison : well , you know , i may have lost the case in court , but right now i feel like i 've won . [ alison chuckles ] [ scene_break ] jack : i just do n't think my son needs to be up close and personal with my sex life right now . janet : well , all right . you know your kid better than i do . you got to go with your gut . jack : yes , i do . listen , the last time carly took off with some guy , the kids thought she 'd never come back . i had to pick up the pieces . janet : is that what 's really bothering you ? are you jealous ? jack : jealous ? janet : yeah . do you wish it was you flying off to paris with carly ? [ scene_break ] neal : got everything you need ? carly : uh - huh . uh , my phone . neal : allons , allons - y . e limo nous attend . carly : what ? i 'm sorry . my french -- it sort of sucks .

'cause i 'll throw up . i really will . i know they -- they supposedly taste like chicken , but they 're not for me . neal : i promise -- no frog 's legs . all that 's left is to show you a good time . shall we ? carly : yeah . [ scene_break ] lucinda : ah ! [ laughs ] hi . noah : hello . lucinda : i got your text message . what is it that you want , sweetheart ? luke : well , um , i 'm thinking about accepting the grimaldi inheritance . lucinda : ah ! bravo , bravissimo . that 's a really smart choice . luke : well , thank you . but i was thinking about what you said about -- about doing some good with the money , and what i was thinking is that i 'd like the money to go to some sort of foundation that helps sick kids , you know , to help support the kids and their families while they 're going through treatment . lucinda : darling , what a thoughtful and -- and -- and generous and marvelously sane idea . you make me very proud of you . luke : well , thank you . but the thing is , i do n't know how to do any of that . so , um , that 's where you come in . lucinda : oh , indeed ! okay . [ laughs ] okay , 'cause i got a stable of lawyers who just specialize in -- in nonprofit endowments . well , do you want to get started right away ? luke : uh , yeah , that sounds great . lucinda : okay . well , i 'll go , and i 'll make some phone calls , all right ? luke : okay . lucinda : darling , you 're really doing a good thing . luke : thank you . lucinda : of course , i 'm not surprised . [ luke chuckles ] lots of love . luke : i love you . noah : she 's right , you know ? you are doing a good thing . luke : well , thank you . but the important thing is that i 'm not doing this for damian . i 'm doing this for you . noah : what ? what do you mean ? luke : remember when you wanted to join the army ? you said it was because you wanted to do something good with your life , you wanted to serve . so i was thinking that working for this foundation would be a way that you can get what you want . and it 's a way that we can work on something together . [ scene_break ] jack : i 'm not jealous of carly . janet : not even a little ? jack : yeah , i know . it surprised me , too . but if carly said she needed a break and she was whisked off by patrick dempsey to paris , i would n't lose any sleep .

[ scene_break ] meg : you know , i ca n't believe he 's done it again . just when i was starting to trust him , he started up with his lies . emma : sounds just like paul to me . meg : how could he think he could possibly get away with that ? lily : because he almost did . i mean , it was really pretty clever when you think about it . if he had attacked damian or dusty directly , it might have been suspicious . meg : so by siccing them on each other , making the other one believe that they were responsible -- lily : they were bound to escalate things on their own , and they did . fortunately , they found out what was really happening , and they 've turned everything over to the police , and they 're going to let them handle it . emma : it 's something they should have all done in the first place . meg : mom , would you mind watching eliza for an hour or two ? emma : why ? meg : because i 'm going to give paul a piece of my mind . emma : meg snyder , do n't you dare ! [ scene_break ] dusty : i 've been thinking about the paul situation . damian : so have i . dusty : yeah ? what 's your take on it ? damian : you know , i was wondering if it would not be best after all to just turn the whole mess over to the authorities and let them handle it . dusty : it 'd spoil this . if we turn him in , he wo n't do time . damian : huh ? even with everything we have against him ? the -- the positive identification alone would be enough -- dusty : no , no . it means nothing , trust me . he 'll walk . damian : all right . so what 's your suggestion ? dusty : stick to our agreement . make paul pay for what he 's done . damian : i have to admit that , uh , it would be nice to get paul out of our lives and meg 's for a good long time . dusty : i know just how to do it . it 's simple . we do to paul what he did to us . we set him up . damian : how ? dusty : we need to use your warehouse down at the docks . damian : all right . that can be arranged , depending on what we use it for . dusty : i 'm going to put a bomb there . damian : are you insane ? dusty : no . paul is . which is why he 'll be responsible . damian : nobody would believe he 'd do something so -- drastic . dusty : paul ? paul doing something that drastic ? are you kidding me ? nobody 's going to bat an eye . damian : when you say a bomb , you mean something that looks like a bomb , huh ? dusty : no , no . it 's real . but you 're going to get there with the cops in time to turn it off . i 'll make sure you 'll find paul . damian : it 'd just be the same . it wo n't be enough to convict him . dusty : it will be if it looks like he planted the bomb to kill me and frame you for my murder . damian : so paul goes to jail for something he did n't do instead of something he did ? dusty : the point is he goes to jail for a lot longer than he 'd get for cutting a fuel line or stealing a laptop . damian : just one problem . dusty : only one ? damian : what if the police do n't get there in time , and the bomb goes off ? [ scene_break ] luke : so , i will get these over to the apartment . uh , do you know how long your meeting with your advisor 's going to be ? noah : no . no idea . but i will have something to talk about , thanks to this . luke : well , that -- that is very , very rough . noah : well , you will have plenty of time for rewrites when we start shooting . luke : oh . so we 're working on it together ? noah : we have to be . luke : i like the sound of that . noah : you 're going to work for me , mr. snyder . i run a tough set . [ luke laughs ] luke : well , now i am very excited . noah : professor jarvis , i really hope i have n't kept you waiting . mason : you have n't , and there 's no need to be so formal . please call me mason . noah : okay , uh , mason . uh , i was really hoping i could talk to you about my senior project . mason : oh . i am really looking forward to seeing that . your idea of exploring your relationship with your father in the military was fascinating , and it 's timely . noah : thanks . um , but i 'm afraid i 'm not going to be able to continue working on that project . personal reasons . mason : oh . what do you propose to do ? noah : i have a screenplay ready . i just need your approval , and i can get started working on it right away . mason : all right . if it 's anything like your first project , i look forward to reading it . [ scene_break ] lily : thanks for the coffee , but i really should be getting home now . emma : would you like another cup of coffee , lily ? meg : she said she wanted to go , mama . emma : just a minute . i 'm just being polite . [ lily sighs ] lily : meg , i 'm -- i 'm sorry if by telling you about paul , i caused any problems . emma : no , no , no . meg : no , lily , its fine . i needed to know . emma : you did the right thing . maybe now she 'll cut him out of her life for good instead of just pretending to do so . lily : would you look at the time ? uh , i 've got to go . meg : mama , i need to go see paul to tell him about his behavior . emma : what are you going to do ? you going to give him another lecture ? meg , it is a waste of time . he does not listen , not even to you . now , listen to me . the best thing you can do is just let dusty and damian handle this whole situation . meg : he needs to know that his actions have consequences ! emma : yeah , and so he can make another whole hundred excuses of why he did things . and you 're just going to fall back into that old pattern again , feel sorry for him . meg : how can you still think that i 'm susceptible to him ? trust me , what i feel for paul is not love ! emma : opposite of love is not hate . it 's indifference . and if what he 's done can provoke this kind of feeling in you , he still has a hold on you . meg : i am not going over there because of some kind of hold he has on me . i 'm going over there to make him understand that i know what he 's done and that i 'm not going to forgive him for it . emma : meg , how many times have you done that ? ! what makes you think that this time will be any different ? meg : i need to say it . so are you going to watch eliza for me , or should i take her with me ? [ scene_break ] dusty : i 'll set the timer so you 'll have plenty of opportunity to get the police to the warehouse . do n't worry . i 'm going to be there , too . i have no intention of dying just to put this guy behind bars . nobody 's getting hurt , except paul . damian : i assume you already have the bomb ? dusty : not yet . damian : all right . let me at least set you up with someone who wo n't sell you a piece of junk . dusty : friend of yours ? damian : he 's a demolition expert who 's done some construction work for grimaldi shipping . but he 's not averse to making some cash on the side . talk to him . he can make the necessary arrangements . timing here will be crucial . dusty : you do n't have to tell me that . so -- how does it feel to be on the same side for a change ? damian : i do n't plan to make it a habit . [ scene_break ] barbara : meg . meg : barbara , i did n't expect to see you here . barbara : well , i did n't expect to see you , either . barbara : what a nice surprise . where 's eliza ? meg : uh , she 's at home . uh , paul , we -- we need to talk . paul : okay . you want some tea ? it 's herbal . barbara : you know , we need to plan a family outing is what we need to do . a picnic -- meg : yeah , i 'm sorry , barbara , but this is not a social call . paul : so i guess the , uh -- the tea is probably out of the question . barbara : what 's wrong ? meg : your son has been up to his old tricks again . barbara : what have you done , paul ? paul : i have no idea . but whatever it is , i 'm sure we can work it out . why do n't you come sit down -- ? meg : forget it , paul . i am not falling for your lies anymore . paul : okay , what is it that i am supposed to have done ? [ meg scoffs ] meg : you have been sabotaging dusty and damian . you wanted each of them to believe that the other one was out to get them . barbara : why would paul do something like that ? meg : because by pitting them against each other , they would look bad and make you look good . paul : okay , i 'll grant you that sounds like something that i might do . meg : no , you have been trying to drive them out of my life so you could go right back into it ! paul : so what , you 're taking dusty 's word over mine ? or is it damian 's words you 're listening to these days ? meg : lily told me . paul : oh . well , do you have any proof ? do you have anything that would hold up in a court of law ? meg : yeah , i -- i do n't know . but if there were , i 'm sure you 'd find a way to get around it like you always do . paul : might i remind you that you were the one who decided not to press charges against me the last time ? meg : well , those days are over . dusty and damian are on a warpath , and i -- i 'm not lifting a finger to help you this time . paul : okay . so what ? two half - wits are after me , and i 'm supposed to what , be threatened ? meg : i do n't care if you 're threatened or not . i no longer care about anything you do . paul : well , the fact that you 're standing here says otherwise . meg : i came here to make something very clear to you . you have driven me away . you have destroyed any remaining goodwill i had towards you . barbara : meg , no matter what paul has done , he 's still eliza 's father , and you two have to work this out . meg : no , no , we do n't ! paul , you have finally trashed any chance you had to be part of your daughter 's life . paul : you do n't mean that . meg : what do you have to give her that is of any value ? if she 's going to learn the difference between right and wrong , she 's not going to learn it from you now , is she ? barbara : do n't do something you 'll regret , meg . meg : i 'm done , paul . finished . i will never trust you again . i did n't want to have to protect my daughter from her own father , but you have given me no choice . [ scene_break ] lily : so , i told meg what paul had done . holden : yeah ? how did she take it ? lily : about how you 'd expect . when i left , she was making noises about going to see paul , but emma was dead set against it . holden : i think mom was right . frankly , i wish meg would stay away from all the men in her life right now . none of them are any good for her . [ lily scoffs ] lily : you ca n't possibly be comparing damian and dusty to paul . holden : they all use every trick in the book to get what they want . and as far as meg 's concerned , it 's just the same jerk , different day . lily : you are never going to give damian and dusty the benefit of the doubt , are you ? holden : i do n't have to . you cut them enough slack for the both of us . [ lily laughs ] lily : luke -- luke : ah ! lily : you are just in time to keep your father from digging himself in any deeper . luke : ah ! well , you are on your own , dad . i just took my last box to our new apartment . so as of now , i am officially moved out ! lily : oh , well , sweetie , i 'm so happy for you . [ luke laughs ] lily : i 'm so sad for me . luke : oh , mom ! mom . lily : i do n't want to see you go . luke : come on . i 'm just moving in to across town , not across the country . holden : same thing as far as your mom 's concerned . lily : do n't pretend like you 're not going to miss him . holden : hey , i 'm glad to see him go . he needs to get out there and fend for himself . luke : oh , thanks , dad . lily : when can we have you and noah over for dinner ? holden : hey , will you at least let him get out the front door before you start ? lily : how about tomorrow night ? and the night after that ? luke : uh , well , i actually have asked noah , but i just want you guys to know we 're going to be pretty busy this summer . noah is going to be making his senior project off of a script that i wrote . lily : oh ! that 's so wonderful . luke : yeah , yeah . we 're really excited to be working together . but it 's going to be really intense , because , you know , making a film is like 24/7 . i 'm going to have so many rewrites , i 'm probably going to be pulling my hair out . lily : so what ? you 're making a movie ! luke : yeah , yeah . holden : luke 's right . it 's a big commitment . and you 've got all your work at the foundation . where is school going to fit ? luke : it is n't . [ scene_break ] noah : well ? mason : i ca n't let you do this . noah : why not ? mason : well , for one thing , it 's way too complex for a short . there 's no clear arc for your protagonist . the transitions are all muddy . noah : okay , i -- i know it 's not perfect . i know it needs work . mason : noah , you can do much better than that . unless you do n't want to . come on , what 's going on ? this , uh -- this luke snyder -- what , you owe him money ? you owe him a favor ? what 's going on ? noah : he 's my -- my boyfriend . mason : oh . noah : he 's a good writer , too . mason : i did n't say that he 's not . and i -- i 'll even say that that script shows promise . noah , the choice between art and love is a lot older than either of us . noah : never thought of it as a choice . mason : well , when you 're lucky , it is n't . but when it arises , choose the art . hopefully , the love will be more forgiving . noah : yeah , but luke is really looking forward to working with me on this . i do n't know how to break it to him . mason : make me the bad cop . tell him that your evil advisor would n't let you do his script . noah : but i -- i have to do this screenplay . i -- if i do n't , i do n't have a -- a senior project -- i mean , not one that will be done in time to graduate with the rest of my class . mason : you have n't got anything else ? noah : i 've got one idea , but i -- it 's sketchy . i mean , i tried to write out the whole thing , and i could just get a paragraph . mason : all right . let me see it . come on . let me see it . they say the million- dollar deal has been made for the words on the back of a cocktail napkin . let me see . [ mason sighs ] noah : it 's lousy , huh ? mason : well , i do n't know if i 'd give you a million dollars for it , but , uh -- no . noah , now we 're talking . noah : really ? i mean , you like it ? mason : yeah , yeah . no , this is the seed to a good film . noah : but how do i get from a paragraph to a full screenplay that i can shoot and edit with the time i have left ? mason : looks like you need some help . lucky for you , i am the man to provide it . [ scene_break ] barbara : dusty and damian are likely to press charges , and those charges will probably stick ! paul : mom , i do n't care about that . if -- if meg succeeds in keeping me out of eliza 's life , i do n't care if i go to jail ! barbara : well , i do . and i want to know why -- why you always do the most insane thing imaginable instead of being straight with people ? ! paul : well , i learned from the best , did n't i ? tell me , mother , when were you and james ever straight about anything ? barbara : i am not going to stand by and watch this happen , because you are headed for a disaster . paul : suit yourself . get out . [ scene_break ] emma : well , i hope you got that out of your system . meg : i did , and it feels great . thanks for asking . emma : good . now maybe you can stay clear of him altogether . meg : that 's exactly what i plan to do . emma : damian , hello . come in , come in . damian : hello , mrs. snyder . emma : hi . damian : meg -- meg , please , if you could just hear me out for a second . i -- meg : okay , look , i owe you an apology . damian : you do ? emma : let me -- let me let you two be private . i 'll check on my granddaughter here . meg : i heard what paul did to you and dusty . damian : so dusty told you ? meg : well , i 'm -- i 'm afraid i did n't give him a chance . lily told me . damian : well , at least you know the truth . meg : i 'm sorry i blamed you for what paul did . damian : it 's understandable . meg : no , it 's not . it 's not . i -- i ca n't seem to get it through my head that paul will never be the man i want him to be . damian : it 's always hard to believe that the people we love are capable of terrible things . meg : thanks . anyway , i just came back from fairwinds . damian : why would you go there ? meg : to tell paul that i knew what he did and why and that he was n't going to get away with it . damian : good . meg : yeah . i 'm glad it 's over . [ damian sighs ] damian : oh , i only wish it were . meg : what 's that supposed to mean ? damian : meg , i have a confession to make . [ scene_break ] dusty : that 's right . the grimaldi warehouse on the docks . see you in a few . [ scene_break ] [ cell phone rings ] [ paul groans ] paul : dusty . i should have known . dusty : you were expecting my call ? paul : yeah . your girlfriend just left . i was , uh , kind of just waiting for you to weigh in with your usual empty threats . dusty : meg was just there ? paul : so , what are you going to do this time , huh ? what do you and meg have planned that you have n't already done to me ? dusty : you and i need to settle this , if you can remember how to be a man . paul : is that supposed to wound me ? dusty : no . that comes later . if you want to continue this conversation , you can meet me at the grimaldi warehouse on the docks . paul : the grimaldi warehouse ? why ? dusty : so we can talk undisturbed . paul : what do you want to talk about ? dusty : only one way to find out , paulie boy . paul : when ? dusty : now . come alone . [ scene_break ] [ creaking noise ] dusty : hey , you must be the demolition guy . i 'm dusty . i hear you do good work . man : well , i 'll have to send mr. grimaldi a `` thank you `` note . dusty : you bring what we talked about ? man : money first . dusty : let 's get ready . i want you to set the timer , and i need you to walk me through what i have to do to turn it off . man : you , uh , used to dealing with things that go boom ? these babies are pretty sensitive . dusty : well , so am i. i 'm a fast learner . man : what are you going to blow up ? dusty : with any luck , nothing . thanks . let 's hope we do n't have to do business again . [ creaking noise ] dusty : i hope you 're checking your messages , damian . the bomb 's all set . paul 's on his way . i 'm counting on you to show up with the cops . [ scene_break ] meg : so dusty wants to plant a bomb to frame paul ? damian : i 'm afraid so . meg : lily told me that you guys are going to go to the police to let them handle all this . damian : well , in a way , i 'm supposed to bring the police to the warehouse with me . meg : you know , it 's bad enough i find out about paul 's involvement in all of this . now you two want to take this madness to a whole new level ! damian : i never should have agreed to go along with dusty 's plan , i know , but -- meg : i do n't understand why you were even tempted . damian : i fell back into old habits . what can i say ? a few years ago , i would have stopped at nothing to make paul pay for his crimes , but now i -- i do n't want to be that man anymore , thanks to you . meg : i do n't know what you want me to say . i -- i mean , you come over here , a -- and you tell me that you 're part of a plan to frame an innocent man for attempted murder . damian : whoa . if paul were truly an innocent man , none of this would be happening , meg . look , i -- i just came over to tell you the truth , okay ? i did n't want you to find out from someone else and think i 'd acted without even considering your feelings . that 's all . meg : so , what are you going to do now ? damian : i 'm going to tell dusty that i 'm not going to take part in any of this . as much as i despise what paul has done , i do n't want to lower myself to his level . meg : well , it 's a shame dusty does n't share this view . damian : i 'll convince him to let the authorities take care of paul . meg : that 's the only sensible thing . damian : yeah . ciao , meg . emma : bye , damian . damian : bye . emma : what 's going on ? meg : yeah , i -- i thought this whole thing was over , but it 's not , and -- emma : what are you talking about ? [ meg sighs ] meg : mama , would you mind watching eliza for a little while again , please ? [ emma sighs ] emma : what is it this time ? meg : i need to stop world war iii . [ scene_break ] holden : when did you decide that you 're not going back to school ? luke : well , it was n't a decision . i just have so much else going on right now . the foundation is working on a lot of really good projects . holden : i -- i thought that the work at the foundation was supposed to be a way to make up for what happened with the school election , to prove to the dean and the faculty that you deserved a second chance to go back to school . luke : well , originally it was , yes , but it 's become so much more than that . holden : yeah , but is this what you want to do for the rest of your life ? luke : dad , i -- i do n't know if i want to make the foundation my career . holden : well , then , go back to school and keep your options open ! luke : dad , honestly , i could n't see myself being fulfilled going back to college right now . holden : no , not right now , but you need to think about your future . lily : holden , if luke 's not ready to go back to school , i do n't think we should push him . holden : i 'm not pushing . lily : and -- and this movie that he 's working on with noah this summer -- it sounds like a great project . holden : okay -- lily : who knows ? he might end up being a filmmaker . holden : how is this project that you 're going to help noah on going to get you anywhere ? luke : i 'm going to be just as involved as noah . and who knows ? mom might be right . this could lead to something . lily : and this way , he 'd have something to show the o.u . faculty , if one day he does decide to join the film program . holden : fine . you have to do what you think is best . luke : well , thank you for understanding . noah : oh . hi , mr. and mrs. snyder . lily : hi , noah . holden : hi , noah . i understand a congratulations are in order . you and luke are going to be working on a project together ? luke : yeah . i told them about the film . noah : uh , that 's actually what i needed to talk to you about . luke : oh , of course , of course . do you guys mind ? holden : of course not . lily : we 'll leave you groovy , indie filmmakers to work . [ laughter ] luke : so , what did he say ? when can we start ? noah : we do n't . he does n't think i should shoot your script . [ scene_break ] paul : i 'm here . what do you want ? dusty : talk . paul : that 's the part where you use words . you know that , right ? dusty : i want to see if there 's any way we can settle this . paul : all right . let 's negotiate . these are my terms . i want my family back , and you and damian can pretty much go to hell . you have a counteroffer ? dusty : i 'll never let meg go back to you . paul : okay , well , that pretty much ends the settlement negotiations . dusty : i wish i could have been there when she let you have it . paul : i 'm sure she 'll fill you in on all the gory details . dusty : you set me and damian up to destroy each other ! paul : okay , that sounds interesting . do you have proof ? dusty : yeah , yeah . as a matter of fact , i do . paul : i do n't think so . i do n't think you have enough , or you would n't have asked me here to negotiate . dusty : you 're too slippery for the cops , and i do n't trust them to keep you from hurting anyone else . paul : so you 're going to take the law into your own hands ? dusty : you got it . paul : is that why i 'm here at the docks ? do n't tell me i 'm going to swim with the fishes . dusty : nah . that 's too crude . paul : well , you ought to know . come on , dusty . do n't keep me in suspense . how are you going to take care of me ? dusty : we need to come to an understanding . paul : i do n't see how that 's ever going to happen . you got nothing . what the hell kind of ambush is this ? dusty : are you alone ? damian : i am . paul : dusty , the two of you ca n't beat me up by yourselves ? you were expecting damian to what , bring hired help ? dusty : what are you doing ? damian : what i have to . paul : what is he talking about ? dusty : are the cops outside or not ? damian : not . i came here to tell you the deal is off . [ scene_break ] luke : why would he turn you down like that ? noah : mason thinks there might be some problems with the script . luke : wait , wait , wait . who the hell 's mason ? noah : my advisor . luke : professor jarvis ? noah : oh . luke : so he 's `` mason `` now ? noah : okay , it really does n't matter . he 's my advisor . he 's got veto power over my senior project . luke : and he vetoed my script . did he tell you why ? noah : he said there was some problems with the structure . he thought it had promise , though . luke : okay , well -- well , then , i can get some rewrites cooking . you know what ? i have an idea to fix the structure . noah : that wo n't work . luke : why not ? ca n't you just tell him that i need a little bit of time ? i mean , would -- would a week be too much ? noah : i told him one of my ideas , and mason -- professor jarvis -- he really liked it . luke : but you told me that all of your ideas were really sketchy . noah : well , they are . luke : so he would rather have you start from scratch than work from a completed script ? noah : he said he would help me work through it into a full screenplay . he 's my advisor , luke . i 've got to do what he says . luke : if you say so . noah : we can work on something else together . luke : no . you know what ? it 's okay . i mean , the only reason it matters at all is because dad got on his `` luke needs to go back to college `` kick , and the only way i could shut him up is by saying that i would be busy working on your movie . noah : but now that you 're not , you could come back to o.u . luke : what ? noah : maybe it 's time , luke . [ luke sighs ] luke : oh ! my boyfriend is turning into my father ! oh , it 's so weird ! noah : i am not turning into your father . i just want you to find something that grabs you the same way that filmmaking grabs me . luke : noah , i have to tell you that the idea of going back to college does not grab me at all . noah : ah , but it might lead to something . luke : noah -- noah : if that does , would you just think about it ? [ scene_break ] barbara : hi , emma . um , i was hoping to talk to meg . emma : well , i 'm afraid she 's not here . barbara : well , then , maybe you and i could have a talk . emma : of course . come in . would you like some coffee ? barbara : no , no , no . thank you .

[ margo sighs ] margo : what crime ? damian : he arranged for a bomb to be placed at the warehouse -- dusty : who set me up with the demolition guy ? damian : -- with the intent of luring paul there , and paul would be blamed for setting the bomb .

[ scene_break ] meg : barbara , do you really think his father is so determined to control paul that he would put a microchip in his brain ? barbara : control is what james lived for -- that and a son created in his own image , which he would have done anything to get , no matter how extreme . how is he ? bob : he 's waking up on his own , and that 's a good sign . barbara : oh . thank god .

( 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 .

[ scene_break ] meg : none of this means that i do n't appreciate your support the last few days . it was very kind of you to let me stay here . craig : whatever your motives , meg , i married you because i loved you . i do n't say that to make you feel guilty . i -- i care about you , you needed a place to stay , i was glad to help . meg : you helped . a lot , but we both know -- craig : okay , you know what ? i really do n't need to hear it again , thank you . meg : i care about you , craig . craig : no . no , you married me to right a wrong . i took lucinda 's company , you were going to give it back to her . meg : and if i had to do it all over again , it would be very different . but , let 's just agree that it was a mistake , and -- craig : fine , i 'm going to get my attorneys to start . let me know . lily : meg ? meg : hi . hey , is everyone all right ? lily : oh , i do n't mean to alarm you . i tried your phone . meg : yeah , i turned it off what 's happened ? lily : well , barbara 's having sort of a memorial service at her suite . for paul . thought you should know . meg : well , i ca n't imagine she 'd want me there . lily : i did n't really buy her , so last minute . but , she did say that she wanted anybody there that cared about paul . and nobody cared about him more than you . meg : i loved him . with all my heart . lily : exactly . so , at least think about it . craig : meg , do you want your own attorney -- lily . lily : craig . actually , i was just leaving . and maybe you should go with me . meg : thank you , but i ca n't leave just yet . craig : meg has been staying here . lily : holden and i offered for her to stay at our house and she agreed initially , and then she got cold feet . why was that ? meg : it was just for a day or two . i needed to be alone . lily : we would have left you alone . meg : yeah , i know . and i was planning on visiting , but craig and i , we -- lily : craig and i ? why are you keeping up this pre - tense , meg ? meg : i 'm not . it 's just that we have some things to settle . craig : there are some legalities to be hammered out . meg has asked me for an annulment . [ scene_break ] henry : remind me again . why are we celebrating ? vienna : because katie and jack are going to have a wonderful life , thanks to me . henry : i 'm afraid to ask . vienna : who would be very unhappy if katie and jack got married ? henry : that 's a good question . are they getting married ? vienna : what , you do n't think they should ? henry : uh , yeah . yeah , i guess if they want to , sure . vienna : well , they belong together . henry : i can think of two of three people who disagree with that . vienna : exactly . brad and carly . henry : right , right . brad and carly , brad and carly . so , you 're telling me that brad and carly did something not very nice ? vienna : horrible . brad had someone calling at the studio pretending they were the jeweler . and he knew that if katie overheard , she would think that jack had bought her an engagement ring . henry : and she would think this , why ? vienna : the point is , katie got her hopes up . and then when jack did n't ask her to marry him , you know , she was crushed . but i knew something was kosher . henry : not kosher . vienna : huh ? henry : never mind . vienna : so , i went to talk to my friend , the jeweler , and it turns out , everything was a trunk of lies . henry : that clears it right up . vienna : yeah , it certainly does . and now , jack and katie , they can live happily ever after . henry : i am sure they are very grateful . um , i 'm just curious though , since katie is usually a self - starter . why did you feel you had to interfere ? vienna : for you , henry . [ scene_break ] jack : katie , i know that this proposal comes on the heels of a lot of family stuff with brad , now carly . katie : i want to know what she said . and not the watered down version . i want to know exactly what she said . jack : she said she loves me and she wants me back . katie : okay , i knew that . jack : and she kissed me . listen , i do n't want to lie to you . for a moment there , i thought it felt like old times . but then i set her straight . katie : how ? jack : i told her i was in love with you . katie : you told her that ? you said those words ? jack : yeah . well , i realize it kind of comes a shock to you because somewhere along the way i forgot to tell you those words myself . but i -- i do . i love you , katie . katie : oh , jack . this is so backwards . jack : i know . i know it is . i know . first i ask you to marry me , and then i tell you i love you . i 'm out of practice . katie : it 's okay . i love you , too . jack : so , i 'm forgiven ? [ laughter ] for being backwards ? katie : yeah . i guess it kind of works for us . so , let 's go backwards again and you can tell me more about carly . [ jack laughs ] so , you told her you loved me , and -- jack : yes , and that i wanted to be with you . and that she 's just going to have to get used to it . katie : and then what ? jack : and then i left . and i realized that this is not the best time to be talking about carly , but i really do n't think that we should be keeping anything from each other . i know that you do n't want that . katie : no , i do n't want that . so , in the interest of full disclosure , i will tell you that it 's not easy to hear that carly put her cards on the table . i guess i 'm sure there was a part of you that loved to hear that she wants you back . jack : my ego had a moment , yes . but luckily -- luckily , i 've got a very good memory . i do n't want to live like that anymore . [ phone rings ] [ jack laughs ] katie : it could be about the kids . jack : yes , it could be . what 's up ? carly : hey , i 'm sorry to bother you . it 's about parker . and i know that we talked about telling him about paul together , but it 's in the paper . jack : so , he knows ? carly : yeah . jack : how 's he doing ? carly : not good . he 's back to how i left and how he ca n't trust anybody and then he ran out . jack : he left the house ? carly : no . no , not yet . he just went to his room . could you come by and talk to him , jack ? i do n't want him running off . jack : i 'll be right over . parker just found out about paul . i really got to get over there . he 's a mess . katie : to carly 's ? jack : yeah . look , i ca n't promise that anything 's going to be different . katie , i have three kids with a woman who 's not exactly honest . she 's going to be a part of our lives . that is , if you 'll say you 'll marry me . katie , i love you , and i want you to be my wife . [ jack laughs ] but you got ta know what comes with the package , okay ? parker , he still has a lot of problems . and j.j. and sage , they need a lot of attention . katie : i know . i know that . i love your kids . jack : they 're crazy about you . but , you have to know that there will be moments , like this . carly 's going to call and i 'm going to have to go over there . katie : it 's okay . you know i understand that . i want you to go . jack : so , you do ? you do understand ? katie : jack , you just told me about carly saying she wants you back and kissing you . because you know that i do n't want you holding anything back from me . and i love that you know that . and i love that you and i are so honest with each other , no matter how hard it is . i think that came out of being friends first , because we were never trying to put that perfect person forward . jack : well , half that time we were talking about how awful we felt . katie : exactly . so , i trust that in you . when you tell me how you feel , it 's exactly how you feel . so , if you tell me that carly kissing you just convinced you that i 'm right , then i believe you . jack : so ? katie : so -- you really want to propose , i think you know the answer . jack : okay , you know , i 'm going to do this right . katie : yeah ? jack : yes . i 'm going to ask you again , officially . i 'm going to make this something special . something that we both -- we both remember , with the ring , and the music and the whole nine yards . so , the next time , when you say yes -- if you say yes -- katie : hey , just do n't ask me to marry you , unless you want to get stuck . do n't say you were n't warned . [ scene_break ] henry : so , you made sure jack and katie would get married for me ? vienna : because i know how much you love her . she 's your best friend . and now that you 're happy , i know that you want her to be happy , too . henry : well , you 're right , i do . vienna : and it did n't hurt that brad got furious . henry : that 's my girl . vienna : and that tacky carly , she does n't deserve jack . and now she ca n't have him . henry : well , there 'll be no dancing in milltown tonight . vienna : are you proud of me ? henry : yes . i 'm very proud of you . but , tell me -- altruist that you are , is there some other reason that you want katie to be happy ? you do n't have to worry , vienna . vienna : oh , i 'm not worried . i mean , my mother was right in a lot of things -- never to trust a pretty woman . henry : is this about your mother ? vienna : my mama is a beautiful woman , but unfortunately , one beautiful woman was n't enough for my father . so , she always warned me never to have a pretty best friend . she 'll just steal your man . henry : you 're not going to lose me . vienna : i know . henry : you do ? vienna : yeah , because you make me happy , and i make you happy . so , why would you leave me ? as fun as you are , just sometimes , i get a little lonely and i just want to talk to a girl and in the past i 've had a problem trusting people . and now , things have changed with katie and i really like her . is that okay ? henry : of course it is . vienna : so , she can be my best friend , too ? henry : i insist on it . and you 're right . you 're right , you do make me happy . [ scene_break ] lily : an annulment ? good . meg : let 's not turn this into a confrontation . craig : it 's all right lily is angry with me . lily : with very good reason . craig : you know what ? we all have our reasons . good and bad . lily : i 'm not going to debate this with you . i need to get back to barbara 's . please , please consider coming by . craig . craig : lily . nobody gives anger better than lily , of course , except her mother . now sierra was never like that . but , then again , she had a sense of humor . meg : well , that must be why she married you . craig : yes , must be . lawyers are hard at work . what did lily want ? meg : i turned my phone off . craig : seemed like she wanted you to go somewhere with her . meg : barbara 's having a memorial for paul . craig : of course she is . meg : today . craig : and you want to go ? meg : does it matter what i want ? craig : of course it matters . you loved him . so go . meg : barbara does n't want me there . craig : so , what ? meg : so , i do n't want to make things worse . craig : how can you make things worse , meg ? the man is dead . it does n't get worse than that . meg : if it were n't in her home -- craig : oh , you know what ? why are you even so worried about what other people think ? meg : you know , i 'm not like you , craig ! i do n't do whatever i want and to hell with everybody else !

[ cell phone ringing ] damian : lucy ? lucy : hey , i just ran into holden . he 's headed back to the hospital in a few minutes . damian : luke just went in to see his mother . you think you can delay holden a bit ? just buy luke a little more time ? lucy : you know , i do n't think it 's a problem -- luke running into his father . i still think it 's a good idea if they had a chance to talk . and , besides that , i do n't like spying on holden . damian : spying ? no , no , no . look , i do n't want you to do anything like that . i was just trying to make it easier for everyone . perhaps you 're right . i 've been a little too protective of luke . luke 's a young man , he needs to fight his own battles . lucy : well , i 'm glad we agree . this was starting to feel a little strange . damian : i do n't want you to feel uncomfortable ever , lucy . i 'm glad we talked . lucy : me , too . okay , so i 'm going to go . i 'll have a cup of coffee with holden and then he 'll be in to see lily and he and luke can talk .

[ lucy laughs ] but then i started taking all the intro courses , and i started to wonder if i 'd really want to go into the family business . my mom sacrificed so much to go into politics . and i could n't quite picture myself on the campaign trail yielding questions about my father 's next parole hearing -- if you know what i mean . holden : oh , yeah . sounds like you 've made peace with it , though . lucy : yeah . well , what are you going to do . i -- how are things with luke ? i have n't seen him at the hospital -- holden : yeah , yeah -- that 's my fault . i spent so much time with lily after the accident -- not enough time with him . he blames himself for what happened , but it 's not his fault . lucy : have you told him this ? holden : i tried . but then he moved in with damian . and i have n't seen him since . lucy : have you tried to call him ? holden : i left messages for him . but he did n't return my calls , so i stopped calling . tell you the truth -- i really do n't know what to do . i love him so much -- he 's my son . and it just kills me to see him being so hard on himself . and if his mother knew that he 'd moved out and that he and i were out of touch -- that would break her heart . [ scene_break ] luke : i 'm sorry i have to leave . the thing is -- dad and i are n't really getting along . he blames me for what happened . it 's not anything he said , but i can tell . it 's like the way he looks at me -- the fact that he never calls . oh , i 've moved in with damian and it 's been great . he 's been great . in fact if it was n't for him i would n't have anybody on my side . i miss you , mom . [ scene_break ] casey : you have to cuff her ? margo : casey . what do you think ? casey : what i think -- i think that something 's wrong with maddie . if you let me ride with her to the police station she 'll be fine . then you can ask her the questions you want and everything . margo : you want to ride in the squad car ? [ lia crying ] lia ? lia : i 'm fine . casey can ride with maddie . it 's okay . i understand . margo : listen -- do you want us to call your parents ? lia : no . i 'm fine , you know . it 's just that you know -- first it was my sweater , now it 's my car -- i 'm a little freaked . nobody 's ever really hated me before . margo : you know what , casey i really need you to stay here with lia so she can talk to the insurance agent . and just know that we will get maddie to the station in one piece . lia : what if next time it 's me she attacks , you know . jade : i told maddie that spying on her ex - boyfriend and his new girlfriend was a bad idea . gwen : how was she spying on them ? jade : like a stalker .

[ emily laughing ] and then you get out of jail and now you 're laughing . which is the biggest miracle of all -- i ca n't believe it . emily : oh , god , i 'm so happy ! and you -- you are the best friend in the whole world . i am so blessed . do i really get to keep my baby henry ? [ scene_break ] paul : if they 're not gon na arrest her for kidnapping dusty or indict her for shooting me , then we 'll get an injunction . meg : on what grounds ? paul : she 's an unfit mother -- she threw herself off a cliff , for god 's sake , meg ! meg : she did n't know she was pregnant at the time . and since then , she passed a psych evaluation . so you ca n't claim she 's a danger to herself or the child -- paul : so fine -- then a civil suit . you can testify as to the nature of my wounds and where you found me -- what i said . and how ? we 'll get an expert witness to corroborate the direction of the bullet and we 'll charge her with illegal possession of a firearm or reckless endangerment -- i do n't care what we charge her with -- but she 's not gon na get away with this . meg : with what ? paul : with taking away my child ! meg : do you hear yourself ? that 's emily 's child too , paul !

[ scene_break ] meg : look , i know you 're disappointed and frustrated . i mean , you expected to get full custody of your child and it did n't work out -- paul : you do n't know that . meg : paul , the charges were dropped . emily 's not going to jail and she 's not gon na be committed . she 's free . so , there is no reason for her not to raise her child . paul : there 's no reason for her not to raise the child ? is that what you just said ? there 's no reason ? meg : i do n't like this any more than you do . paul : really ? 'cause it sounds like you 've accepted it . meg : i have . look , when you asked me to do this with you -- raise the child because emily was going away for life , i agreed . that was the reality . but reality just changed . and for you not to see that fact -- well , i 'm sorry , but i think you 're being a little obsessive . and for you to assume that i 'm gon na go along with the ride without even asking me -- paul : if you and i are gon na have custody of this child -- meg : we have to destroy emily ? paul : i 'm trying to prevent emily from destroying the life of an innocent child and you 're defending her ? why ? meg : and why are we still talking about her ? paul : i do n't know , the last thing i want to do is talk about this . i thought that after today that this whole thing would be over . meg : it is over ! you lost ! she won ! like it or not , you have to share custody . paul : and is that what you want ? shared custody ? meg : i want you to forget emily and focus on us for a change . do you know how to do that ?

[ scene_break ] damian : i 've done some research , and i found a neurologist who can help paul . a specialist in post - traumatic stress and memory loss . lily : since when are you concerned about helping paul ryan ? he tried to ruin you . damian : and dusty as well . but then dusty tried to retaliate and i did n't stop him in time , so i have to make up for that . lily : by finding paul a doctor ? damian : the problem is , the guy is based in new york . and he 'll need to get special permission to be able to work at memorial . lily : yeah , well there 's a procedure to get visiting privileges . damian : i 'm aware of that , but it could take far too long . paul needs to be evaluated right now . and if there is a treatment , it must begin as soon as possible . perhaps you can help . lily : what would you want me to do ? damian : is n't lucinda on the hospital board ? lily : yes . and i 'm sure she could expedite this . but let me ask you something first . are you sure you 're going to all this trouble just to help paul ? damian : lily , i already explained to you , i have an obligation to make up -- lily : you 're a liar . damian : i am not lying to you , lily . lily : then you 're lying to yourself . paul ryan went out of his way to make you liable for millions of dollars . you 're not the kind of person to just forgive and forget something like that . damian : i 'm trying to show i 've changed . lily : you 're trying to show meg you 've changed . damian : look , meg is suffering right now . the father of her child does n't recognize anyone in his family , including his own daughter . lily : so you think if you help paul you can get closer to meg . damian : i 'm just trying to show meg that i 'm able to do the right thing . although i was n't able to stop dusty from trying to hurt paul . lily : so you 're sticking to your story that he 's the only one responsible for this ? damian : i did not want to be involved , lily . but i could n't talk him out of planting that bomb . lily : i still ca n't believe he went that far in trying to frame paul . damian : and then paul saved our lives . so i owe him for that , as well . lily : you have a very interesting take on this . dusty has a much different version , to say the least . damian : he 's jealous . meg rejected him and then turned to me as a friend . so lily , listen -- i am doing a favor for your sister - in - law . tell me -- are you willing to help me , or not ? [ scene_break ] holden : this crusade to find a miracle cure for paul , does n't that sound just a little bit fishy , meg ? meg : well , if it helps paul , then it will help eliza . and if eliza is happy , then it helps me . holden : damian 's just trying to change people 's minds about him . he started with luke and lily , and now he 's trying to get to you . meg : if damian is genuinely trying to be a better person , what 's the problem ? holden : you just need to know how he operates . you need to keep your eyes open . meg : i am . look , paul has done a lot of bad things . and so has dusty . and damian has made mistakes . and as far as i can see , there 's enough blame to go around . holden : that 's why you need to stay away from all three of them . meg : look -- right now , i am just trying to get whatever help i can get . and i am grateful to damian for what he 's doing . holden : all right . i understand what you 're feeling . but what if the three of them go at again , and you 're smack in the middle ? meg : okay , look -- i know you 're trying to protect me . but i promise you , if i run into any kind of problem , the first thing i 'm going to do is run straight to my big brother . [ scene_break ] mason : you know , when the time comes , you should consider going on the festival circuit . if you win a couple of awards , it 'll really help you get some financing for your next project . noah : okay . wait , i 've got to write a decent screenplay first . and then i 'm just concerned about graduating . the film festivals , they , um , they might have to wait . mason : do n't knock it so fast . that 's how i got my start . a few years ago , my documentary , screened at cannes , florence , lisbon . it 's great , it 's how i met my other half . noah : that sounds awesome . mason : yeah , it was . the same thing could happen to you two . let me tell you , walking the red carpet together -- romantic . luke : sounds like a blast . hey , maybe i can help you write your acceptance speech . you know , it ca n't all be about professor jarvis . there has to be a nice , long section about your incredibly supportive boyfriend . mason : just so you know , it 's not professor jarvis . it 's mason , please . luke : okay . thanks . mason : sure . luke : i think i 'm , uh , embarrassing noah with all this award talk . mason : he should be lucky to have someone who believes in him so much . noah : i -- i am . i am lucky , i know it . mason : you guys make a great couple . which reminds me , i have someone waiting for me for dinner . i should get going . luke , it was nice to meet you . luke : yes , you as well . mason : yeah . noah , keep up the good work . noah : oh , thanks again . mason : i 'll see you soon . luke : you sounded kind of intimidated by him earlier . but he 's a nice guy . noah : yeah , he 's okay . luke : so , uh , are we going to hit up any of those red carpets anytime soon ? noah : do n't hold your breath . [ scene_break ] bonnie : dusty , you would be a total fool to plead guilty . dusty : i 've made up my mind . bonnie : oh , why ? why ? i mean , the jury -- there 's a really great chance that the jury is going to be on our side . look , you were deliberately provoked and you responded . you never intended to cause harm to paul . i mean , if we play our cards right , dusty , there 's a good chance we might even get a dismissal . dusty : that 's not going to happen . bonnie : why are you so hell - bent on doing hard time in jail ? you 're just crazy ! dusty : maybe . bonnie : okay . okay . what if you -- what if you do 10 to 15 for attempted murder ? by the time you get out , johnny 's going to be all grown up . is that what you want , dusty ? dusty : i do n't see him that much , anyway . craig 's in charge of his life . that 's not going to change . bonnie : okay , look -- i know you feel like hell right now . but i am too good of a lawyer to stand by and watch you ruin your life , dusty . i am not letting you plead guilty . there 's -- dusty : then you 're fired . have a great life . [ scene_break ] paul : well , look who it is . meg : yeah , i hope i 'm not interrupting . barbara : no , no . not at all . i did n't even realize that you know that paul was out of the hospital . meg : how are you doing ? how 's the progress with your memory ? paul : um , great . i do n't remember anything . barbara : you know , we were just sitting and looking at some family pictures , and nothing was sparking . so , i think he needs one - on - one contact with people who were important to him , okay ? see if you can get something going . i 'm going to leave you two alone . meg : um , you know , i know you 're still recovering . maybe you should be resting . paul : i 'd rather stay here and look at you . feels pretty good to do that . paul : i do n't understand . meg : what ? paul : how i could forget someone so beautiful . you 're memorable . we have a kid together , huh ? meg : yeah . paul : how old ? meg : seven months . paul : and already , she does n't live here ? meg : no . paul : she used to ? meg : yeah . paul : did you and i live here together before the baby was born ? meg : for a while . paul : and how was that ? meg : well , that 's a hard question . paul : you do n't want to tell me ? meg : it was wonderful for a while , in the beginning . we were very much in love . but it was n't easy . and we tried really hard , but things always went wrong . paul : i 'm sorry . i 'm not sure exactly what i 'm sorry for , but i 'm sorry . meg : i guess you and i were n't meant to be . paul : that 's too bad . so , why exactly did we break up ? meg : do you really want to know ? paul : sure . meg : i could n't trust you , paul . you were a compulsive liar . you were jealous . you had these terrible mood swings , and when you did n't get your way , you were violent . paul : did i hurt you ? meg : no , you did n't hurt me physically . but you were out of control in other ways . you were so desperate , you kidnapped our daughter . paul : i did that to you ? i did that to that little , innocent girl ? i did that ? meg : you did a lot of things i did n't understand . paul : i 'm a terrible person . why are you here ? meg , why do you want to have anything to do with me ? [ scene_break ] noah : i 've got so much work to do for this script . i 'm never going to be ready . luke : do n't worry . you 'll finish it . noah : how ? luke : i 'll help you . noah : mason said i 've got to write this on my own . luke : okay , well maybe if you bounce some ideas off of me or something . noah : thanks . but i 'm just so distracted . i keep getting ahead of myself , like i 'm worried about a shooting schedule when i do n't even know what it is i 'm going to be shooting ! luke : noah , noah , do n't worry . it 'll be fine . noah : i hope so , because mason may seem like a nice guy , but he will flunk me , if i 'm not done on time . and then i will not graduate . luke : well , i thought you said that mason was supportive . noah : he is . he likes my ideas . but now i 've got to produce . luke : noah , you are going to be great . noah : well , i 'm glad -- i 'm glad you think so . i wish i was as confident in me as you were . luke : well , you know , i think i have an idea to get your confidence up . noah : what ? luke : you 've got to stop . just stop what you 're doing . you 're stressing yourself out . you ca n't work like this . noah : okay , what am i supposed to do ? luke : take the night off . noah : luke , i 've got a deadline ! luke : it 's one night , noah . and then you can start back up tomorrow refreshed . and you will hit it out of the park . noah : i do n't know , it sounds great , but -- luke : noah , i am taking you out tonight . we 're going to go to metro . we 're going kick back , get some sushi , dance a little bit . trust me , you 'll get twice as much done tomorrow , if you just relax tonight . noah : all right , i 'm convinced . luke : you are ? how 'd i do that ? noah : sorry . i do n't have time to answer stupid questions . my boyfriend is taking me out on the town . [ scene_break ] damian : any luck ? lily : yes . she does n't think it 'll be a problem . damian : well , the problem may be getting dr. frankel to come to memorial . his office is telling me he 's not taking new patients . lily : oh , that 's too bad . so , are we back to the drawing board ? damian : not necessarily . i mean , i 'm sure if we went to new york , and made a personal plea to the doctor himself , we may be able convince him . can we take lucinda 's jet ? that way , you 'll be home in time for dinner . lily : you want us to just drop everything and run off to new york . damian : it 's for a very good cause . i mean , i could go by myself , but i 'm sure the good doctor will be unable to say no to you . and think of how relieved meg will be if paul recovers and eliza gets her father back . lily : all right , let 's go . [ scene_break ] dusty : i fired you . ca n't you take a hint ? bonnie : i 'm not letting you fire me . dusty : well , you 're not getting paid . so do n't bother yourself . bonnie : look , this is not about the money dusty , and you know it . dusty : then what 's it about ? bonnie : okay , i know you do n't like the way meg has been treating you . she has hung you out to dry and she has sided with damian . and you 're just angry about that . dusty : meg can do whatever she wants . i do n't care . bonnie : no , that 's what you say , dusty . but you think she picked the wrong side , and she should 've chosen better . dusty : i 've given up on meg . bonnie : no . no , you want to fight back . dusty : nope , i 'm tired of fighting . bonnie : what , do you want to ruin your life ? dusty : it 's my life . you do n't have a say . bonnie : what the hell is wrong with you ? dusty : i do n't give a damn anymore ! bonnie : well , i do ! dusty : why ? bonnie : i do n't know why i do , but i do . do you have a problem with that ? [ scene_break ] meg : i 'm not sure why i 'm here . i guess i somehow feel responsible . paul : for what ? meg : if i had recognized this problem , and i got you the right help instead of turning against you , maybe things would n't have gotten this far . paul : i do n't understand . meg : the change , it was so extreme . i should have sensed that there was something causing it . paul : i had a microchip in my brain , right ? how could you know something like that ? meg : because the doctors gave me the usual explanations , and i just accepted them . i should have tried harder to get to the bottom of it . i should have looked for the right treatment for you . and maybe then , you would n't have done the terrible things that you did . paul : like kidnap your daughter . meg : our daughter . paul : right . so , you 're only here because you feel somehow responsible for what happened to me ? meg : sort of . paul : oh , well then okay , no -- no problem . i 'm fine , i 'm okay . you can go . meg : what do you mean ? paul : well , thank you for your concern . but whatever happened , i do n't remember . and whatever 's going to happen , well it ca n't have any connection to something that i do n't even remember . so , thank you for checking up on me , but i 'm be okay . you should go . and you do n't ever need to feel like you have to come back . meg : it sounds like you 're giving me the brush - off . paul : no , no , no . it 's not that . it 's just -- it 's -- look , if i 'm as bad as you just described , really what you should do is walk out that door and never come back . meg : you do n't really want me to leave . paul : well , you 're very attractive . but there 's no reason for you to be here . meg : there 's a very good reason . i want to help you . paul : i do n't remember you . i do n't . i do n't think i 'm ever going to remember you . meg : well , you have to try . paul : why ? more to the point , why do you want me to go back to being who i was ? meg : because i think it 'll be different this time . you 'll react to things differently , not the way you used to . paul : you wanted a divorce , right ? and you wanted me out of your life . meg : yes . paul : well , now that can happen . meg : no , i 'm not going to give up on you . what about our daughter ? do n't you want to get to know her ? do n't you want to be in her life while she 's growing up ? paul : not really . i mean , she 's very beautiful . but i ca n't make myself feel things that i do n't naturally feel . meg : you do n't mean that . paul : i do . i do . i feel no connection to her . and you can wait around , you know , if you 'd like , for something like that to happen , but i do n't think it 's going to happen . and if i am as bad as everybody says i am , are n't the two of you better off without me ? meg : eliza needs her father . paul : i do n't remember her , and at this age , she 's never going to remember me . now you can go be with somebody who will be better for her . meg : how can you give up ? i 'm not giving up . i want our daughter to have her father in her life . so if you just give this some time -- paul : time wo n't turn me into who you want me to be . look , if you need money , i can pay you child support . my mommy said that i 've got tons of money and i 'm willing to share -- meg : it 's not about the money . it 's about a little girl who needs the one man in her life who will always love her , no matter what . paul : but that 's not me . and it never will be . [ scene_break ] dusty : what was that for ? bonnie : it was supposed to be a wake - up call . to snap you out of your pathetic , self - pitying funk . dusty : so , it was a mercy kiss ? bonnie : i mean , i could 've hit you upside the head , but i thought you 'd enjoy kissing me more . dusty : you 're wasting your time . bonnie : who says ? dusty : i do . i 'm a mess . you deserve better . bonnie : who says -- who says you always have to come and save the day ? you know , why ca n't the damsel , you know , save the white knight ? dusty : because it does n't work . bonnie : it works for me . come on , i 'm all about equal rights . pretty strong . i can just pull you up on my horse , and we could gallop off into the sunset , no problem . dusty : tempting offer . bonnie : why do n't you give in to temptation , dusty ? i can handle it . dusty : i 'm not sure i can . bonnie : just do n't underestimate yourself , okay ?

[ scene_break ] dusty : i know you 're angry at me for what could have happened to your sister , and i do n't blame you . holden : luckily , she was n't hurt . dusty : she came too close . so if you want to take a swing at me , go ahead . holden : seems like you 're beating yourself up enough . i just want to know the real story . dusty : damian and i devised a plan to put paul in prison . i planted a bomb at the warehouse . damian was to show up with the cops in time to turn the bomb off . holden : only it did n't go down that way . dusty : not only did damian back out of the plan , he decided to tell meg everything . meg shows up at the warehouse to stop it . you know the rest . holden : so , damian was in on the whole thing ? dusty : until the last minute when he decided to bail . this guy hooks me up with this demolition expert who sells me , for a lot of money , a faulty timer on the bomb . he probably did it on purpose . this guy -- holden : only he denies all that . dusty : yep . what do you think ? holden : i think that damian is trying to get on meg 's good side . dusty : me too .

[ scene_break ] barbara : so how was your visit with meg ? paul : great . i told her to leave and never come back . barbara : you what ? paul : well , i do n't remember her or her daughter . and after the things that i did to her , i do n't know why she even wants me around . barbara : no , no , she knows that you 're not responsible for those things ! she 's willing to give you another shot . paul : i do n't want another shot . barbara : why are you trying to alienate her ? paul : i do n't even know her . look , i know you want her to mean something to me , but she does n't . barbara : give it some time . meg and eliza are your family . and if you could just trust that -- paul : she 's better off without me and so are you . [ scene_break ] mason : thank you guys for the company . sorry about how the evening got started . george was in , uh , one of his moods . luke : how long have you guys been together ? mason : feels like forever . we met at cannes when my documentary was screening there . noah : oh , is george a filmmaker , too ? mason : no , no . george is n't , uh , visual . luke : what does he do ? mason : nothing . nothing . george comes from a very wealthy family . so , he does n't really need to work . he 's got it pretty easy . at first it was amazing . we first met in europe -- traveling around , following my film at festivals . but then i landed this teaching gig , and we settled down in oakdale . well , my george does n't have anything to do during the day . so when i get home , he can be a little bit needy . it can be very intense being the center of someone 's life , when that person does n't really have a life of his own .

[ meg laughs ] or like little dancing gazelles ? i adore you . meg : beautiful words . you always say beautiful words . is mama here ? paul : no . why ? is that what you want ? meg : you know , i think she 's starting to like you . she said a lot of nice things about you yesterday . paul : nah , she was just humoring the gunshot victim . look , is n't there something else i can get you ? meg : i want mama to like you . it 's really my fault that she missed the wedding . paul : i got somewhere i need to go . but i 'll be back as soon as i can . meg : okay . and then -- and then you will bring flowers and mama and beautiful words . paul : if that 's what you want .

[ scene_break ] kim : what about you ? what are you up to today ? chris : you know , read , eat , sleep . that 's pretty typical for me these days . [ chris chuckles ] kim : i 'm really glad that you 've taken the time to slow down and , uh , you know , think about what you 're gon na do with the rest of your life . but it does occur to me that there might be such a thing as having too much time on your hands . chris : oh , is there ? kim : i just mean that you 've gone from 100 miles an hour to nothing , so -- i mean , is n't it kind of boring to just lounge around all the time ? chris : it 's working for me . kim : okay . okay . if you change your mind , let me know . i could probably find something for you at the -- at the station . chris : why would i want to -- oh , oh , okay . this is coming from dad , is n't it ? [ scene_break ] alison : there 's your coffee . aaron : thanks . where 's my apology ? i guess i 'm not getting one . alison : you do n't deserve one . i know you 're trying to be all encouraging , but do n't , okay ? aaron : you make it sound like a kick in the teeth . alison : sometimes hearing `` you can do it , alison `` every 10 minutes makes me feel like a loser . why do i need a cheerleader for something that everybody else is able to do without even thinking twice about it ? aaron : all i said was that there 's nothing wrong with a `` c. `` and if i keep telling you that you 're gon na make it through school and you 're gon na be a great nurse , that 's not cheerleading , okay ? it 's the truth . alison : you did n't even want me to go back to nursing school . you wanted me to run off to seattle with you and hang out . aaron : that was before i knew how important it was to you . alison : oh , yeah , right . aaron : what 's with your hostility ? alison : i 'm not hostile . it 's not my fault you 're getting on my nerves . aaron : i did n't even do anything . and why are you acting like -- why are you acting all weird , like -- alison : like what ? [ aaron sighs ] aaron : never mind . never mind , okay ? do you -- do you still want to go to the pond and go swimming like we planned before work ? alison : no , no , no . say it . say it . what were you gon na say ? i 'm behaving like what ? aaron : like maybe you 're on drugs again . [ scene_break ] daniel : so , you and mom have to have a court hearing ? tom : well , your mom and i both love you . you do know that . daniel : yeah . so ? tom : so sometimes we do n't agree on what 's best for you . we 're gon na ask a judge to help us figure it out . understand ? daniel : i guess . tom : look , um , i hope this wo n't be necessary , but it 's possible the judge may want to talk to you at some point . daniel : about what ? tom : you know , about your life , stuff that makes you happy . daniel : stuff about mom ? tom : maybe , but nothing you ca n't answer . daniel : today at the court hearing , are you gon na ask the judge to take away mom 's shared custody ? tom : for the time being . daniel : then tell me . casey : tell you what ? daniel : tell me why dad does n't want me to see my mom anymore . [ scene_break ] margo : i have no idea how long this hearing is gon na last . these are active files . they go to griffin . cop : i 'll put them on his desk . margo : okay , i 'm gon na make some more notes on these , but you find me before i leave . cop : will do , lieutenant . margo : please , thank you . emily : clearing your whole day , margo ? the hearing 's gon na take , what , an hour . what are you planning to do afterwards ? margo : go away , emily . emily : you and tom planning to have a big party after you steal my son away from me ? margo : well , the first part of the hearing , where tom makes his statements , is gon na take at least an hour . and then the judge is gon na want to talk to daniel . emily : what ? the judge is gon na want to talk to my son about me ? margo : oh , would you please relax ? i 'm sure she knows what she 's doing . emily : look , i know you loathe me . i get that . margo : you have no idea how much i loathe you . emily : but you love daniel . you love daniel . why would you do this to him ? why would you do that ? if he finds out that -- that i was a prostitute -- margo , please . i 'm begging you . no child should hear that about his mother . margo : one simple solution to that -- do n't fight us . he wo n't find out . [ scene_break ] casey : i just got off the phone with trey jackson . he and his brothers just set up a full - blown interactive gaming center in their house and they want to know if he could come over . daniel : really ? right now ? casey : if it 's cool with dad . daniel : can i , dad ? they got , like , a whole arcade system in their basement . tom : sure . be home for lunch . daniel : yeah . you , uh -- you coming , casey ? casey : i 'll catch you later , man , okay ? [ door opens ] [ door closes ] tom : you had no right to do that . you knew that i was probably talking to him about any questions the judge might have . casey : yes , i know , but -- tom : just trying to get him off so you can talk to him alone ? casey : okay , wait a minute . tom : or maybe trying to spin this custody agreement so that you could turn him against your mother and me ? i 'm not gon na stand for it ! casey : hey ! i want him out of the house so i could talk to you , so he would n't hear . god , i would never mess with his mind by trashing you and mom . and you know what ? maybe you should do the same thing by not trashing emily . tom : my responsibility is to bring him up the best that i can . and that is what i intend to do . casey : by poisoning his mind against his mother ? tom : he 's not gon na hear any stories about what emily did . the story he 'll get is that she and i could n't agree upon his care , so the judge awarded me full custody . casey : do -- do you really think daniel is that stupid ? he 's gon na know that there 's more to this than that . tom : i 'm sure there will be questions . margo and i can handle it . casey : he 's not gon na ask you a damn thing . he 's gon na go back to his boarding school with his questions . and then he and his friends are gon na look on the internet , research the case , and find out everything ! tom : fine . i 'll have the records sealed . casey : okay , that might slow him down , but its not gon na stop him from getting answers . and then who 's he gon na hate ? huh ? his mother for being a prostitute ? you for outing her ? or himself for being the reason everyone knows ? tom : this is all emily 's doing . casey : she 's not doing anything anymore . it was a crazy , self - destructive time in her life , and she snapped out of it and ended it . she is not the same person anymore . tom : really ? so , she sleeps with unknown men for money . she sleeps with other people , including me , before you say it , and now she 's sleeping with you ? i 'm sorry . sounds like the same emily to me . casey : she is still a good mother to daniel . tom : stop bringing up daniel like that 's what we 're fighting about . you 're not here trying to protect your brother . you 're trying to protect what you have going on with emily . [ scene_break ] emily : there 's no need to put this out there where daniel can get a hold of it . margo : then sign over custody to us and there 's no way that daniel will know about your sleazy past from tom or me . emily : i 'm not signing my son over to you , margo . he 'll -- he 'll hate me for abandoning him . is that what you want ? margo : yes . emily : i ca n't believe you could be so heartless . you love daniel . do n't you love him enough to -- to keep him from the pain this is gon na cause him ? margo : do n't you dare question my commitment to daniel . you have damaged my family enough , and it ends today . now . emily : this is n't about daniel . this is all about casey . this is about me and casey . and you ca n't handle it . i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . i do n't want to fight . i am begging you , okay ? right now , what can i do to change your mind ? anything and i will do it . [ margo chuckles ] margo : see you in court . [ scene_break ] casey : so , that 's what it comes down to ? me and emily ? tom : there 's more to it than that . casey : yes , there 's daniel . and he 's a great kid . and that 's partly because of emily . do you really think by cutting his mom out of his life that 's the best thing for him ? tom : that is my decision , yes . casey : a decision you made because of what daniel needs ? or because you got issues with me ? tom : i 'm very clear about what i 'm doing , casey , and why , and it has very little to do with your relationship with emily . casey : okay , i 'll buy that . but what about my other big issues ? i 'm an ex - con . maybe this is n't about daniel . maybe this is about the sons you tried to save and you could n't . [ scene_break ] emma : what do you want ? paul : i want meg to be happy . and on some level , that means i got to get along with you , so i guess we have a problem . emma : yeah , we do have a problem . 'cause i do n't like you . i do n't think you 're a good person . paul : i do n't like you much , either . emma : i 've seen the damage you 've done . i 've seen my daughter thrown in jail . i have seen her lose a job that she loves because of you . i 've seen her jump into a marriage that was doomed all because of you . you have -- you have caused her nothing but anguish . paul : go ahead . do n't be afraid . emma : and every time she has managed to pull away from you on her own , you have dragged her back . no , i do n't like you . i do n't like what you 've done to my daughter . why could n't you just leave her alone ? paul : i 'm never gon na leave her alone . i think it was a mistake to come here and talk to you . [ emma sighs ] emma : paul , i -- i want meg to be happy , too . i know that she needs my blessing . i know that she needs my approval . but how can i give her that when i do n't see anything good in you ? i want to . but i just ca n't . paul : well , meg can . maybe you could take her word for it . emma : do you think that i -- i have been unfair to you ? paul : no , i think that when you look at me , all you can see is my anger and my jealousy , which has been off the charts . emma : and all that 's changed , has it ? paul : loving meg has changed everything . i 've had to learn to be patient . i 've had to learn to have faith that someone like meg could love someone like me . and every morning , i have faith that when i wake up , that she will still choose to be there next to me . emma : can you promise me -- promise me that you wo n't hurt her ? paul : no , but i promise you that i will never hurt her intentionally . and , emma , i promise that i will love her as long as she 'll have me . that 's a promise that i can actually keep . emma : what was the favor you wanted ? paul : you going soft on me ? [ emma chuckles ] emma : no , i 'm just -- i 'm just accepting what is . and i 'm praying to god that he knows better than i do . what is the favor ? paul : my wife wants three presents . and you 're one of them . [ scene_break ] kim : son , come on . your father is concerned about your future . we both are . chris : but he just dismisses the fact that i 've worked on stuff since med school . kim : he knows how hard you 've worked . chris : then why ca n't he understand that i need a little time to figure out what i want to do next ? no , he just sees that as me loafing around . kim : does it occur to you that maybe you 're just a little bit too sensitive ? chris : mom , i 'm a grown man . i pay my own bills . and , yes , i get a little sensitive when my daddy tries to tell me what to do . i just need a little time , mom . maybe a few weeks , maybe a few months . kim : oh . chris : well , think of it as a sabbatical -- time to look back and see where i 've been and decide where i 'm going . kim : okay . [ chris laughs ] chris : it takes as long as it takes or , you know , until i run out of money , whichever happens sooner . [ laughter ] i 'm gon na be fine , okay ? kim : okey - dokey . okay . chris : see you later . kim : yeah . bye . alison : i ca n't believe you think i 'm doing drugs again . aaron : well , you 're practically biting my head off , okay ? and your eyes are doing funny things , and you wo n't stop fidgeting with that little bracelet that your dad got you . what am i supposed to think ? alison : you 're supposed to be my friend . but you 're not , not really . you 're just waiting for me to fail . aaron : what ? since when ? are you crazy ? when ? alison : since always , probably . i just did n't see it before . aaron : okay , you 're upset . and i probably should n't have said a thing about you being on drugs . alison : you know what ? i know you do n't really believe in me , so just stop pretending , okay ? just go away . chris : put this on . alison : i do n't need it . chris : now ! [ scene_break ] meg : where have you been ? paul : you sent me on an errand . you do n't remember ? meg : i remember telling you i wanted to go home . paul : yeah , well , that 's not gon na happen . they need to observe you for at least another day . meg : but i 'm not bleeding , and i 'm not unconscious . and i can channel - surf at home in my own bed , cuddling my own husband . paul : well , that 's true . meg : and my mama has n't even come by . i mean , i 've been shot by a homicidal maniac and i 'm in the hospital . she has n't even called . i do n't think she 's even home . paul : well , she 'll be here soon . meg : yeah . paul : even though she does n't approve of your brand - new husband . meg : well , i did n't , either , for a long , long time . paul : really ? but you like me now . meg : yeah . [ meg laughs ] paul : so , will you marry me ? meg : we 're already married . paul : yeah , but your mother was n't here . meg : yeah , well , that 's not gon na happen . emma : well , do n't be too sure . [ emma chuckles ] meg : what are you doing ? paul : waiting for to answer me . will you marry me here , right now ? [ meg chuckles ] meg : how did he talk you into this ? emma : no , he did n't . you did . you love him , so i thought i might as well try to tolerate him a bit . paul : see ? we 're making headway . emma : are you up to another wedding ? barbara : do n't you think this is happening without me . [ laughter ] paul : i 'm still waiting . what do you say ? meg : i do . meg : am i getting married in this hospital again ? barbara : no , you are not , because i went over to fashions and i picked up that dress that you saw that you liked so much , so you 'll have something new . meg : but , i -- paul : look , i talked to susan , and your doctor says it 's okay if you stand up , if it 's just for a few minutes . emma : and i brought you this . meg : your mantilla . emma : mm - hmm . meg : mama wore this to all our christenings . emma : hopefully , it will bring you much happiness and many healthy babies . paul : thank you , emma . emma : be a good husband . that 's the only thanks i need . now that -- that was the something old . and here is something borrowed -- family bible . barbara : and this morning , i received a present from will and gwen . paul : you heard from them ? barbara : i did . paul : how are they doing ? barbara : they 're fine . but they heard about sofie and everything we went through with cole . and they knew i 'd be traumatized . they sent me a little present , and i would be honored if you wore it as something blue . meg : it 's lovely . how did you know how much this would mean to me ? paul : you promise me you 'll take it easy , okay ? 'cause the sooner you get better , the sooner i get to carry you over the threshold . meg : again . paul : again . again and again and again . barbara : okay , okay , okay . that 's enough , you two . you have to get out of here so we can get this girl ready for her wedding . come on , go . emma : hey , sweetheart . so , how do you feel ? [ meg sighs ] meg : like a bride . [ scene_break ] casey : i know you think you went wrong somewhere with me and adam , and -- tom : case , i love you and i 'm proud of you . i am . casey : the thing you did right , you and mom -- you were n't perfect . you did bad things sometimes . you even cheated on each other . okay , yes , but it proves something . that good people can make mistakes and come out on the other side better . no matter what , you always forgave each other , and us . now , why ca n't you forgive emily ? tom : i guess some things are just worse than others . and i am not gon na allow emily to be some kind of a -- or have a toxic effect on daniel 's life . casey : i 'm an ex - con . what kind of toxic effect do i have on his life ? tom : it 's not even the same thing . casey : yes , it is ! it is exactly the same thing . daniel is not responsible for anything here , anything , but you 're making him suffer for it . tom : i am being his father . casey : well , be my father , dad . love me enough not to do this . tom : i got to get to court .

[ scene_break ] emily : what are you doing here ? you -- you ca n't be here . you mom and dad can not ca n't see you with me , casey , especially not now . casey : i came to warn you . i tried to talk to my dad , you know , and get him to back off . emily : why did you do that ? casey : because i feel like this is partly my fault . you know , if you and i were n't -- emily : casey , what am i gon na do ? they 've already won this and it has n't even started . what am i gon na do ? your father tells the judge what i did -- margo says i should just drop the case . casey : no , you can not do that . daniel is your kid . you got to fight for him . emily : yeah , well , if it ends up hurts him more than -- casey : oh , it 's gon na only hurt him more if he thinks you do n't want him . emily : are you gon na be here ? i mean , i know you have to sit with your mom and dad . casey : i think it 's only gon na make it worse for you , emily . look , i wish i could sit with you . i wish i could hold your hand . emily : no , you 're right . you 're right . you 're right . you 're right . there 's no sense in making them angrier than they already are , your mom and dad . casey : i 'm pulling for you , emily . with everything i have , okay ? emily : thanks . casey : good luck . [ scene_break ] alison : you do n't care about my health . all you want to do is get me into bed , as usual . and i was n't coming on to you . i was being sarcastic . chris : okay , the chills and nausea -- did you fake those , too ? alison : like you care . chris : if you do n't want to believe me , do n't , okay ? but your mother 's a doctor . ask her to look at you , all right ? alison : i 'm busy -- studying . damn .

[ scene_break ] paul : so , this morning , you asked me for flowers and your mom and beautiful words . and since your mom 's here and there 's flowers -- gorgeous . exquisite . breathtaking . all mine . friendship . romance . passion . hope . forever with me . those are the most beautiful words i could think of . forever with you . meg : i love you so much . you are my everything . you are -- emma : oh ! susan : what happened ? emma : oh , she -- she fainted . i mean , she was only on her feet for a few moments . susan : paul , take that necklace off . it 's in my way . emma : oh , sweetheart . oh . [ scene_break ] margo : why did you -- why did you -- why did you let her get away with this ? tom : well , she did n't . margo : yes , she did , tom . she just walked out of here , and she 's still got shared custody of daniel . tom : did you see your son walk in the courtroom ? margo : yes . tom : did you see where he sat ? margo : so ? he 's still infatuated with her ? tom : so i had to make a decision . i either lose my son or keep them both . margo : oh . explain this to me , tom . tom : casey came by the house earlier and begged me to let her off the hook . margo : what ? so you caved ? tom : no , i came here with every intention of keeping emily as far away from daniel as i possibly could . margo : why did you do this ? tom : because i think i finally started to see the pattern . every time we fight with emily , we win the battle and lose the war . she 'll gon na play the victim no matter what . margo : oh , she always does . i know that . tom : i mean with me , with chris . i finally decided that we do n't have to do any of the heavy lifting around here anymore . i mean , we do n't need to keep her away from daniel or casey . eventually , they 're gon na see the same thing we do and she will alienate herself all on her own . margo : huh .

[ scene_break ] barbara : you know , susan , before meg fainted , she had her hand on her heart and she -- she looked very distressed . did you hear anything in the stethoscope at all ? susan : were you in any pain ? meg : no . it was more like a flutter . it 's not the first time paul has made my heart race like that . that 's when i got light - headed , and -- and even for a second , i was hallucinating . paul : you have any idea what happened ? susan : actually , i 've found nothing . her heartbeat was a little rapid when i first examined her , but it 's subsided , and everything else looks normal . maybe it was just this second wedding -- jitters . paul : you know what ? this is all -- this is my fault . i think we should have waited until you were 100 % . if you do n't mind , maybe you could give my bride some time to rest . meg : no , no , no ! no . i will feel a lot worse if we do n't finish what we started . [ scene_break ] emily : you gave me back my son , case .

meg : you want to give a bottle to a lamb . paul : yeah , why not ? meg : okay . buttercup , this is paul . paul : buttercup ? is n't that a cow name ? meg : do you really want to argue with mama ? here you go . paul : no . got it . hi , buttercup . i bet meg 's got all kinds of goodies in here , if i know her . meg : is that some kind of crack about my cooking ? paul : no , no , not at all . look , i know she looks good -- who are we kidding , she looks great but , but she scorches the chili . she scorches water if you want to know the truth . which is really hard to do . you know that , if you know anything about water . meg : she 's drinking . you charmed her into it . paul : mm - hmm . how about you ? meg : it 's not about that . paul : no , it is . it 's all about that . meg , i think it 's really important that we find each other irresistible . meg : paul , you made it very clear . you want full custody of your child , then you 're willing to do whatever it takes to make that happen including destroying emily . and i wo n't be a part of that . paul : look , i was shocked . i was really upset . when i found out emily was free and clear , i said some things . and obviously , i want full custody of my child . but you 're right . that 's not gon na happen , at least not now . so i 've calmed down and i 've accepted it an the situation , i 'm willing to negotiate . meg : for what ? paul : for shared custody . because that 's what 's best . not just for the kid but for you and me . i do n't want to battle emily for the rest of my life . so we 'll all sit down together . we 'll hammer something out . and we 'll reach some kind of agreement . that is if you 're still willing . meg : the thing is -- that sounds great . and you obviously know the right thing to say . maybe you even believe it . but i do n't buy it . so no . i 'm not willing . i 'm sorry . jade : you and will were fighting about me ? gwen : it was dumb and my fault . maddie had said something and -- it 's not important . the point is , i should n't have let it get to me . jade : was this at crash ? because i saw you two chatting and i was n't -- i was n't trying to listen . i was getting my schedule . but i heard you tell her something about how she was imagining things . gwen : she 'd seen you guys hugging and -- i told you it was dumb . but i do n't like to keep things from will , so i told him what she said and we talked it out . and i thought things were cool , but then he disappeared . i thought , you know , maybe he came out here . jade : i have n't seen him . and there 's nothing going on between me and will . i mean , you have to know that he loves you . we 're just friends . gwen : yeah , no , i get that . i think it 's just that , you know , we 're still raw . the whole graduation thing and then losing his sister . i mean , not that there has n't been good news , too . the whole trust fund thing , that was great -- jade : if this is about money , i would rather stay at a bus stop than cause a problem . gwen : no , it 's fine . honestly , i 'm glad that we can help you . you need a decent place to live and i 'm sorry that i brought it up . jade : no , i 'm glad that you did . i want to be able to talk . i do n't want things to be weird . so are we okay ? will : hey . gwen : hey . i was worried . where 've you been ? will : i 'm sorry . i needed to do something . gwen : because i left you , like , a million messages . will : yeah , i know . i just wanted to tell you in person . it 's kind of a surprise . jade : should i go ? gwen : no , i do n't think so . is it a good surprise or is it a bad surprise ? will : yeah , no , , it 's a good surprise . it 's a very good surprise . i hope . i found us a home . gwen : you found us a place to live ? will : yeah . gwen : oh my god . will : anyway , i need to show it to you . gwen : you 're so great . will : yeah , your sister 's place is cool . i just wanted to find us something of our own . gwen : our own place , just you and me ? will : yeah , that 's the idea . and you 've got to come see it tonight , because if you like it , then we can move in tomorrow . gwen : what about jade ? can she come ? kevin : you know , i just do n't get you . you were after me all this time to hang out , and now when you finally do , you mess it up or your father gets in the way and things get ugly . luke : hey , my father had nothing to do with this . kevin : no , you 're right . it was all you . i should 've never -- i should have never listened to you . luke : kevin , do n't say that . kevin : you want a second chance ?

damian : that 's why i went back to the car . i brought you these . that school is just a few miles from my estate . it has a marvelous reputation . and this is a program they 've started at the local airport -- flying lessons . i have my own plane . i know you 're interested in learning how to fly . luke : i 'm there . let 's go to europe . the sooner the better . damian : when will you discuss this with holden ? luke : there wo n't be much to discuss . he 'll hate the idea . `` i 'm running away from my problems , i should n't trust you , remember what happened last time ? `` blah , blah , blah . damian : luke , you must know that i would never take you to malta if i thought it unsafe . luke : my dad does n't care . he wo n't listen to what you have to say . damian : but i want you to know , i would never put you at risk . luke : i do know that . damian : you do ? luke : yeah , of course . damian , you 've been amazing . damian : you have no idea how much that means to me . i 've wanted us to be friends , to trust each other , for so long and -- you know , perhaps i should wait to book the trip until you settle things with holden . luke : no , no . book it . my dad will just have to deal .

gwen : i know that you wanted to do this alone . but jade and i had just had a talk about me being jealous about what maddie said -- and i did n't want her to think that there were any hard feelings . will : so you 're okay ? gwen : yeah , i 'm good . will : good . and i promise , from now on -- no more giving away money without talking to you first . gwen : no , i 'm glad we 're helping jade . especially now that we have all this . will : lucinda said we could come stay for one or two days , you know , before we decide . gwen : sign the lease -- i love it . i mean i can see us coming home from school and studying in front of the fireplace and waking up in the morning and walking out into the garden and having coffee under that tree . will : i 've always loved it here . and i love you . carly : is this really necessary ? ca n't i just have my lawyer call the station ? cop # 5 : you can call your attorney as soon as you 've been processed . simon : what are you doing ? carly : i do n't want jack to see me . simon : why ? you look amazing . carly : i really do n't think he 'd agree with you at this moment ! simon : well then the guy is literally out of his mind . carly : we 've been arrested ! simon : oh it 's a technicality . carly : oh , a technicality , is it ? like who actually owns that building ? simon : it 's no big deal . carly : you lied to me ! simon : no , i never lied to you -- i never said i owned the building , i just said i got a new job for you remodeling a new property . carly : you think this is funny do n't you ? you know , i knew it . i knew hat i never should have gotten involved with you . simon : oh come on -- was n't it just a little bit of fun ? carly : well , until the cops showed up . simon : a call to my lawyer and we 're gon na back on the streets in action in no time . carly : says you . well , i 've heard enough . jack . jack : you 've been arrested ?

paul : look , i know -- i know that i do n't deserve you , okay . i know that i 've made a lot of mistakes and i know that i 've let you down and that i have a lot of flaws . but no one will ever love you the way i love you . no one will ever understand you the way i understand you . and we do that for each other . please , meg -- make a life with me . marry me . announcer : coming up on `` as the world turns `` -- paul : i have no future without you -- i love you . holden : just stay with us . this baby 's gon na need you . jack : i told katie and mike not to worry that simon frasier would never sucker you . you 're to smart for that . but i guess i was wrong -- again . meg : get up . paul : that 's not fair . what are you feeling ? meg : what i 'm feeling ? ambushed . that 's how i 'm feeling -- ambushed . paul : that 's not exactly what i was going for . so you 're not saying `` no , `` though . look , i know this is really strange timing , but it 's a really nice ring . meg : paul -- paul : look , meg , when you left , i fell apart . you walked out on me and i did n't care about anything . not my kid , not my future . i did n't have a future . i have no future without you . i love you . i want -- i do n't want , i need to wake up next to you . and i want to argue with you about who 's going to cook breakfast . because to be honest with you , meg , i 've had my last piece of burnt toast and when you come back to bed and we make love until dinner -- which is another meal that i will have to cook . and then if you 're feeling like you are right now and you do n't want to talk , we 'll go out to the terrace and we can just hold hands . we can watch the billboards light up on the highway . we can watch the moon come out , i do n't care . meg : and on the days when emily has hauled you into court because you picked the wrong preschool for junior -- paul : then , i will have to be honest with you , you might have to cook . i ca n't promise you that everything 's going to be perfect and that emily 's not going to stir things up . and i ca n't promise you that i wo n't overreact and i wo n't be emotional or -- but i promise you that i will go about everything in a legal way . and i will do that not just for you or for me but because that 's what 's best for my kid . meg : that sounds great . and i wish i could find a way to trust it . but emily 's been out a day or two and the baby wo n't be born for weeks . who knows how this is going to play out . paul : it 'll play out the way we want it to . not necessarily the way i want it to and not necessarily the way emily wants it to , but the way that 's fair . the way we both need it to turn out . meg : okay , paul , i can't . okay , it 's just the way it is . i need to back up . i ca n't be in the middle of this anymore . you just need to work things out with emily on your own . paul : why ca n't we just do that together ? meg : because i do n't think you 're able to do what you say . you 're going to get frustrated and angry and impatient and do something reckless or maybe even underhanded and i do n't want to be a part of that . and until you can prove me wrong , i 'm sorry , i ca n't marry you . holden : our child is about to be born . they 're going to do a c - section . bob says that he 's got a great team of doctors that are going to look after you and the baby . that you 're going to be fine . just stay with us . because this baby 's going to need you . just like faith and natalie and luke and your mother . and most of all , me . bob : holden , we 're ready for her . luke : here , grandma . lucinda : thank you . thank you . luke : dad ?

because simon frasier 's a con artist , a liar and a thief ? then why would you agree to work for him , carly ? carly : i 'm working , that 's the important point . jack : oh , i see . so you can turn me down and wash dishes at the lakeview and work for simon frasier . what 's next ? you going to get your old job back at the galaxy ? but that 's okay . that 's okay . you 're doing this on your own and that 's what counts . not your kids or your self - respect or your peace of mind . carly : what i do is none of your business . jack : we have kids together , carly . that is my business . or have you forgotten ? maybe the champagne went to your head or the rush of breaking and entering . you violated your probation . do you know that a judge is going to do when he hears about this ? carly : it 's not going to come to that . jack : why ? because simon says ? and you believe him ? i told katie and mike not to worry , that simon frasier would never sucker you , you 're too smart . but i guess i was wrong -- again . carly : you know what , jack ? i 'm going to tell you this one last time . what i do is none of your business . we are through . if i make a mistake , it 's my mistake . and i do n't need you following me around and protecting me . i can take care of myself . i paid that tab at the lakeview myself and i can get out of these charges myself ! jack : i would love to see that . carly : well , that 's the problem , jack . you got to stop watching me .

[ scene_break ] jack : i 'm gon na be honest with you , parker . i really hope that you and liberty do n't end up like us . 'cause your mom and i , we have n't been the best example . but i have learned a few things in my life , and one of them is that someone your age can not handle the emotional ramifications of having sex . and as tough as liberty says she is , she 's not , either . and i love you too much to let you keep doing something that could have a serious effect on your future , so it 's gon na stop . you understand me ? parker : how are you gon na stop me ? [ scene_break ] liberty : mommy , it was so awful . dad was so angry that i swear he 's gon na kill parker . janet : oh no , baby . the only thing parker 's dying of right now is embarrassment . liberty : how do you know that ? janet : because your father hauled him into the police station . liberty : what ? he 's being arrested ? janet : no , no , no , no . no , of course not . for goodness sakes , why would somebody be arrested for just kissing ? liberty : mom , katie knows . janet : oh . katie : so you know , too ? janet : uh - huh . and jack knows . and your father knows . liberty : oh , my god ! oh , my god . what was he like when you saw him ? janet : um , i 'm sure he 's calmed down by now . liberty : dead daughter walking ! janet : no , no , no , listen . stop it . listen to me . i 'm gon na go talk to jack and try and get things back to normal and see what i can do , all right ? liberty : okay , well , make sure to come pick up my remains . janet : liberty , sweetheart , you 're gon na be okay . i love you . liberty : i love you , too . katie : so , you want something to eat while we wait ? liberty : i 'm way too nervous for a last meal . katie : hi . brad : hello . katie : who 's your friend ? liberty : your really big friend . brad : this is ugo , your new bodyguard .

[ lily scoffs ] lily : come on . worldwide is nowhere near as byzantine as your family 's business . damian : by that you mean corrupt ? lily : no . old - fashioned . damian : lily , please . this has nothing to do with management styles . this is about your husband wanting to keep my son away from me . and it sounds like you 're on his side . lily : i 'm always on his side . damian : i thought you were on luciano 's side . lily : i am . and i do n't think grimaldi shipping is the place for him . damian : really ? because of management styles , or because of what you saw today in the lobby ?

jack : hey ! just who i wanted to see . sage : daddy ! jack : be careful be careful , be careful . parker : hey , jack , you okay ? jack : i will be buddy . parker : when we heard what happened to you -- it just sucks , you know . j.j . needs you . we all need you . jack : i 'll be okay . sage : daddy , parker said sucks . you said we could n't say it -- jack : it 's okay . i 'll give him a pass this one time , okay ? sage : then can i say it too ? jack : absolutely not . you can say stinks . thank you . lily : jack looks better than i thought he would . carly : yeah , yeah , he does . lily : did you tell him that you paid the ransom ? carly : no , i was just about to when you and holden came in with the kids . have you talked to holden yet ? lily : no , no , no ! i was waiting to hear from you . carly : well , good , then don't . because maybe you wo n't have to tell him at all . lily : what ? holden : okay guys , let 's go ! carly : is everything all right ? is jack okay ? holden : yeah , he seems to think that he 's going to be released . carly : already ? holden : yeah . i 'm going to take the kids to meet up with gwen and will -- i 'll be back . lily : okay . carly : okay , listen to me now . you be good . and you be careful and you take care of each other , okay ? parker : mom -- chill . carly : no one else gets hurt , okay ? parker : okay . holden : let 's go . lily : what did you mean when you said that i might not have to tell holden about the ransom -- hi . dallas : how 's the patient ? carly : he 's awake . any news on j.j. ? dallas : no , nothing . but jack 's dealt with situations like this before . he 's going to have ideas on how to continue the search . lily : we have got to tell jack what we did so they can have a plan . you know what ? i 'm going to do the talking . carly : no , no ! no . lily please , please do n't do that . meg : what 's this ? another chapter in the perfect gentleman by craig montgomery ? craig : would you prefer that i grope you ? meg : i 'd prefer you admit what you 're really up to . craig : i do n't want you to feel pressured about this . meg : because you care about me or because it 's good technique ? craig : i 'm trying to be considerate . why do i have to defend myself ? meg : oh , here 's a reason -- we 've already established the fact that you manipulated me into keeping lucinda 's corporation . craig : oh , no , no , no . that was your decision . ultimately . meg : which was carefully orchestrated by you . you and your laid back approach . craig : i 'm thorough . what can i say ? meg : you think if you give me more space , your chances of getting what you want are greater . craig : i do what works . so sue me . meg : it 's wearing a little thin . craig : what ? you want to have an argument now ? meg : what ? and if i did , are you going to arrange that too ? craig : so , you want a fight . why ? meg : why do you always need to be a step ahead of me ! craig : it 's not just you . meg : then stop ! i do n't need your permission to get an annulment , to keep the corporation , to pick my own charities -- craig : okay , we are really just splitting hairs . meg : this is important to me ! i do n't want you condescending me , seducing me , indulging me -- craig : come on -- you 've got ta let me have a little fun ! meg : so your making me think that i 'm calling all the shots so you get exactly what you want ? craig : absolutely . meg : you 're not even denying that ? craig : why would i ? meg : what do you get out of this ? craig : i am hoping to get out of this the same thing i was hoping to get the day that i asked you to marry me . i want your trust . i want love . i want family , future -- meg : even after everything that 's happened between us ? craig : all right , yes , there were painful moments , but we have learned . we are both capable of extremes . meg : craig , i told you i hated you ! craig : and there is great passion in that ! meg : and love does n't come out of that if that 's what you 're tellingúyourself -- craig : i do n't want to predict love . you can not predict love ! who could 've predicted that after all the hell that you and i have been through , i would still be in love with you ? and i am ! paul : what 's the reason for you not calling meg ? barbara : maybe i -- maybe i 'm not willing to share you . just for a few days . paul : that 's the only reason ? barbara : let me be grateful that you 're alive , paul . i 'm not ready to be nice to the people that i hold responsible for this . paul : you blame meg ? did craig hurt her ? did craig hurt her ? is that why you do n't want to call her ? barbara : meg is fine . paul : well then i want to talk to her . barbara : honey , let it go for now , okay ? please , paul ? paul : no . something 's wrong . something 's wrong . barbara : no , no . paul , sit . paul : something 's wrong . and if you do n't want to tell me what it is , i can figure it out for myself . barbara : paul , lie down , lay down . you 've got obal paul : let go of me . nurse : you need to lie down , mr . ryan . paul : i need to make a phone call . dr. voss : you sustained multiple serious injuries -- all requiring surgery . unless you help us help you , you will injure yourself further . barbara : please listen to him paul . dr. voss : please do n't force us to sedate you . paul : okay . i 'll stay in the bed . but you need to tell me when you 're gon na release me . dr. voss : i ca n't tell you that yet . i need to run a c.a.t . scan and an mri . and i need to know you will cooperate . barbara : he will , i promise . i 'll talk to him . dr. voss : i 'll check back later . barbara : are you trying to kill yourself ? paul : mom , i swear -- i will drag myself out of this bed and i 'll get a taxi and i 'll get on an airplane unless you tell me what 's going on with meg . barbara : she 's living with him . paul : no . barbara : you think she 's grieving for you , but she 's sleeping with the man who tried to murder you . paul : no . when craig found out , meg did whatever she had to do to protect us , but not now , not afterward . not after i fell . barbara : she 's living with him , paul . i would n't have believed it either , but i saw it with my own eyes . meg : you love me . even after i led you on and planned to run away moments after we said our vows ? craig : i admit , i do n't want to revisit those memories . meg : do you remember our engagement dinner ? you wanted to share the good news with my family , end the rift ? craig : oh please , can we not do this now ? meg : i knew you had a genuine affection for me , and i used that against you . i used half truths to hide an enormous lie i was constructing -- and all along , i wanted you to believe you had the upper hand . craig : so what ? so i did the same thing to you , did n't i ? it does n't matter . you know me . we know each other . for better or worse , you know me . you have gotten inside of my head . you have gotten inside of my heart like nobody else ever has . meg : and i took that heart and i threw it right back at you . how could you love somebody that hurt you that way ? craig : how could you ? margo : look , it 's not so much what jack said that worries me . it isúcarly . because she 's going through an extremely stressful time right now . and if she feels that you 're getting too close , she 's gon na strike . and she 's gon na make it hurt . katie : so what do i do ? margo : just what you 're doing . just stay away and let jack focus on finding j.j . katie : i ca n't do that . i 'll feel like i 'm abandoning him . margo : well , i 'm sure that he wo n't see it that way . katie : if i was in the hospital , i would want him there holding my hand . margo : no , no , no . this is jack 's child . jack 's child is missing . he 's going to focus just on that . so if you stay away , it 's possible -- it 's possible that carly wo n't feel she has to stake a claim every time you 're getting to close to jack . [ katie scoffs ] cop # 2 : someone here to see you about j.j. snyder , lieutenant . margo : great , great . see there ? i 'll be right there . i 'll be right there . please , do n't get discouraged . you know , a little patience goes a long way . katie : i hope so . just let me know anything you hear about j.j. , okay ? anything at all . margo : i 'm sure that jack will call you himself . henry : katie , hey , i was just about to call you . how 's jack ? katie : he 's doing okay from what i hear . henry : you have n't seen him ? katie : no , considering carly 's guarding his bed like a mad dog , i think it 's best this way . henry : whoa , whoa , you 're letting carly be the gatekeeper here ? that 's not like you . katie : i 'm trying not to be me . henry : who are you trying to be ? katie : some quiet , patient , selfless wimp . henry : wow , that is -- that 's going to change , okay ? now , i need a martini and you need someone to knock some sense into you . let 's go . margo : so , i understand that you may be able to help us find j.j. snyder . mel : are you going to tape this ? margo : no , no . mel : good . because , um -- whoa , this is kind of scary . margo : oh , this is your first time in a police station ? mel : almost did n't come . margo : well , just relax . mel , is it ? mel : short for melissa . margo : oh , good . so anything you tell us will be helpful . mel : okay . this the thing -- i know that coming forward may be the right thing to do , but it 's kind of the wrong thing for me . you know what i mean ? margo : no , i have n't a clue . do you know someone that is involved with the abduction of j.j. snyder ? mel : no . no , i don't . it 's just -- well , i was supposed to be at work when all of this was happening , butúi wasn't . and if my boyfriend knew i was lying to him -- margo : could you just tell me what you saw ? mel : sure . i saw the boy -- j.j. -- the one who was kidnapped . carly : let me do the talking , okay ? lily : i do n't want to lie to holden . carly : i know . you wo n't have to . it was my idea . let me take the heat for it . jack : they ca n't have drifted too far -- they still do n't have what they want . carly : actually , they do have what they want . jack : you mean , j.j. ? carly : i mean the money . jack : what ? carly : i paid it , jack . i paid the ransom . intimidation tactics workekail . e n't going to make me afraid . it 's a gthreats in the you arwhich e the power of veto on myself.~ jack : please -- please tell me i heard you wrong . carly : i was desperate to get j.j. back . i was so scared , jack . frightened that if they did n't get what -- jack : i do n't believe this . i really don't . dallas : did you make the drop yourself ? carly : yeah , like they asked . jack : meaning you did this yesterday ? carly : yes . dallas : did you see them pick it up ? carly : i saw a woman -- but i did n't get a good look . jack : when were you going to tell me this ? hell , i walked into a setup ! carly : i did n't know , jack . they were supposed to take the money and leave . we should 've gotten j.j. back . i 'm sorry . dallas : i got ta get back to the station . fill margo in . jack : did n't i make it clear -- did n't i make it clear that paying the ransom was not the way to go ? that it could get j.j. hurt , huh ? that keeping the kidnappers waiting for a payoff was our only leverage ? carly : yes , i know . i just thought -- jack : you thought that you knew better , right ? and where did you come up with the money , anyway ? carly : does that even matter ? i did what i thought i had to do and it did n't work . jack : right . and the hell with the rest of us . holden : you know what ? we 're going to give you guys some time to work this out . lily : and call if you need anything , anything . jack : do you have any idea -- the people who took j.j. could be miles away from here by now . with or without him . carly : they were supposed to give him back . jack : they did n't give him back though , did they ? carly , you could have put him at even greater risk . and you could 've gotten me killed . carly : do n't say that . i would intentionally put you in danger , jack . how could i ? i love you . katie : but henry , he said , `` i love you , carly . `` henry : she 's the mother of his kids . katie : you think that 's what he meant ? henry : i think it means she 's going to be in his life whether we like it or not . how many times were they married and remarried ? katie : not making me feel better . henry : then you 're not listening , sweetheart . because no matter how many times jack and carly were married , it could n't last . katie : the marriages did n't last . but what about the feelings ? those probably still go on . i mean , look at you and vienna . henry : do n't look at me and vienna . we do n't want to get married . jack does . and he would n't have proposed if he had any doubts . katie : do you think i 'm making too much of this ? jack : i think he was trapped under some beams , probably having a near death experience -- yes , let it go . katie : okay , i 'm just going to follow margo 's advice then , and step back -- henry : no -- no , i do n't agree with that . i do n't think you should crowd him , but he needs to stay strong . and for that , i think he needs you , not carly . katie : i hope so . but i just ca n't help but wonder if saying carly 's name was a symptom of something deeper , you know , that he 's trying to ignore . like maybe , he will never love anyone like he loves her . and she 's the one he really wants to be with . jack : i think he already loves you more . i get that you 're scared , okay ? and no one understands the risk of love better than i do . yeah , you might get your heart broken , but sweetie , if you love jack -- i mean , if you really love jack , you 've got to take that risk . otherwise , it 's going to haunt you for the rest of your life . craig : you mourn paul , you romanticize him , but he did unforgivable things to you . craig : oh , no , no , no , see -- he 's gone now . so you only remember the good part . why do n't you remember how he made you lie to jennifer about her baby ? how about how he lied to you about emily ? how about how his vendetta against me -- meg : and i forgave him for that . he did some bad things , it 's true . but what you do n't understand is that he was always trying to do the right thing . not trying to score points for himself . craig : oh , i could argue that one . meg : well , do n't bother . when i was with paul , the future was brighter , everything was sweeter . and when he died , it all changed for me . craig : except your feelings for him . meg : yes . craig : i can accept that you ca n't let paul go -- i can accept that he is a part of your life , but just now -- when i was holding you and when i was kissing you , we both know that paul ryan was the last thing on your mind . paul : no , no , she 's not with craig . it 's just -- that 's not -- that 's not possible . barbara : from the moment that you were lost , he never left her side . he was there , consoling her . he even insisted that he tried to save you from falling -- paul : meg would n't believe that . barbara : i do n't know what she believes . she barely spoke to anyone after the accident . and he was right there , playing the hero . even financed the search party . paul : that 's -- that 's sick . barbara : well he knew that 's what she wanted . and then when she finally agreed to go home , he made sure that she ended up at his house . i 'm not sure she even fought the idea . and he has been glued to her side ever since . i did n't even know the extent of it until he showed up at my place for the memorial service for you . playing the protective husband , even though he promised an annulment . paul : why would -- why would meg let him anywhere near her ? barbara : i do n't know . i know this is hard to hear , but you 're not the only one she betrayed . paul : what are you talking about ? barbara : once they were married and craig gave worldwide to meg , she was supposed to give it back to lucinda , right ? paul : yeah . barbara : well , she 's decided to stay on and run it . with craig as her mentor . paul : but that 's just business -- you just said that craig agreed to an annulment , the marriage -- the marriage is over . barbara : i do n't know that it is . i do n't know that she filed papers -- paul : of course she did . barbara : then why is she living at fairwinds ? they were together at the snyder farm , too . paul : doing what ? barbara : you do n't want to know -- paul : no , i do -- tell me . barbara : i saw them in an intimate moment . paul : no . no , meg -- no , meg wouldn't . she -- give me your phone . barbara : no . paul : give me your cell phone . mom , give it to me now -- barbara : i 'm not sure she 'll pick up , paul . paul : it 's not her i 'm calling . maid : montgomery residence . paul : i 'd like to talk to meg . meg please . maid : i 'm sorry . she 's not here right now . paul : um , do you know when she 'll be back ? maid : mr. and mrs . montgomery are gone for the day . paul : look , this is kind of urgent . think you can tell me where they are ? maid : try the snyder farm . they spent the night there . today marks a sombre anniversary for our city - we 'll show you how edmontonians are paying tribute . and we 'll share the stories of edmontonians caught in the storm - you 'll meet families who lost loved ones and hear from emergency workers who came to the rescue on that haunting day . join us for a special presentation of the news hour at six . eric : i really hope that you under ; i 'm a million miles away looking for a place to land . great big sea . kevin : we could n't agree more . as you see every night . making the world make sense . global national . news understood . barbara : i 'm sorry , honey . i really did n't want you to be burdened with this right now . paul : i saw it , mom . barbara : you saw something between meg and craig ? paul : i had a dream right before i woke up . and i was trying to get to meg . i was trying to talk to her . every time i got close , craig was there . and then -- barbara : what ? paul : rosanna was there . barbara : rosanna ? paul : yeah . i think she was there because she and i were in the same place . we were both caught somewhere between life and death . barbara : did she say anything to you ? paul : she said i should get back to my life . and i thought that meant getting back to meg . that i could get back to loving meg . barbara : you have loved meg long enough -- paul : she ca n't be with him . it does n't make any sense . she loves me . barbara : things happen . people change . paul : they do n't change that much , mom . barbara : you know what ? i 'm going to get you out of here , okay ? get you home where i can take care of you . i 'm going to talk to dr . voss and see if we can get a medical release and hire a private jet and take you back home tomorrow . paul : no . i 'm not going home with you , mom . meg : it 's true . paul was the last thing on my mind when i kissed you . but if he walked through that door right now , i would fall right into his arms and never look back . and you need to accept that . craig : i do . but he is not walking through that door , is he ? or any other door and that is something that you need to accept . meg : i think you should go . craig : i think i should stay , at least until we hear about j.j. see if there 's something else i can do . meg : no , you know what ? i think we could handle it . craig : why are you doing this meg ? why are you asking me to leave when that is the last thing you want me to do ? lily : the thing is , carly thinks like a mother . jack thinks like a cop . he has every right to be angry with her , but she was just trying to save j.j . i remember when luke was missing , i would have done anything to get him back . holden : lily , do n't make excuses for her . she went behind jack 's back at a time when they needed to be to working together . and this is n't over yet . how 's he supposed to trust her from this point on ? lily : i 'm sure if carly had thought things through a little longer , she would n't have paid the ransom . holden : i 'm just surprised she was able to get the cash . 100 grand -- lily : yup . holden : that 's a lot of money . lily : sure is . it 's a lot of money . holden : so where do you think she got it ? margo : dallas ? dallas griffin is one of the officers who is helping us to locate j.j . he could have some questions for you as well . mel : and he can be trusted ? margo : yes . yes , he can . now , you saw j.j. -- mel : it was yesterday . he was being shoved into a car . i gave you the make and model . margo : yes , you did . and that was very helpful . mel : but like i said , i should n't have seen it . because i should n't have been there . i should have been at work . margo : i understand that . i 've got all of that . now , when you saw j.j . being shoved into the car , did you overhear him saying anything ? was there any sign of a struggle ? mel : he looked scared . ducking -- it was as if he was afraid he was going to be hit . and i recognize that look because my little brother had it every time daddy came after him with a belt . dallas : let 's stay with j.j. what you saw could save this boy 's life . even the smallest things are important . margo : now , who did you see shoving him in the car ? mel : it was a woman . they were sitting there waiting and she looked kind of nervous -- anxious . then a man jumped in the car and they took off right after the explosion . margo : all right , could you give us a description -- a height , weight -- hair color ? mel : the woman was thin , about 5 ' 4 `` . long brown hair . and the man was a bigger build , around 6 ' maybe , dark hair , full beard . and i already told you about the car . margo : did you see the license plate ? mel : i only got the letters . bmc -- i remember them because those are my boyfriend 's initials . which only made me feel guiltier about being there , because i was with someone else . margo : all right , all right , this is all very , very , very helpful . thank you so much and i just have to ask you if you will stop and see the sketch artist before you leave . and you tell him everything that you just told us . ñ > mel : well , okay . as long as it would n't take long . margo : no , it would n't take long . and you have done your community a great service . this is just between us , okay ? dallas -- dallas : yeah -- margo : here , i want you to run a check on the license plate and the vehicle and get back to me as you as possible . cop # 2 : i 'm on it . margo : oh , we have a description . dallas : yeah , i 've got something too , but you 're not going to be happy about it . margo : oh , go ahead , make my day . dallas : carly paid the ransom . margo : no , she did not -- what is she thinking ? did n't jack tell her that that was the wrong thing to do -- dallas : he told her -- margo : of course he did . he told her , but she didn'túpay an attention , did she ? no , because she 's carly and why should she change now ? carly : please , jack , i did n't mean to make this harder for you or for you to be hurt . and god knows i did n't mean to put j.j. 's life in danger . jack : no , i 'm sorry . i blame myself . i should n't have included you in any of this . carly : no , do n't say that . we have to work together to get j.j. back . jack : you 're willing to work with me now ? i do n't even know how to respond . carly : what 's important here is j.j. and we have a better chance of getting him back if we work togethern just like we did when we found parker in chicago . jack : you did n't go behind my back then . carly : i will do whatever you want me to do . jack : okay , stop . just stop . i ca n't -- i ca n't listen to this . you 're right about one thing , though . j.j. is all that matters . carly : then you forgive me ? jack : i need some time alone to think about my next move . can you give me that ? carly : yeah . i 'll be out in the hall . well , if you 're here to tell jack that i paid the ransom , i already told him . katie : i was n't going to . carly : and he forgave me . he understood that i 'm just trying to protect our family . katie : the answer is yes . yes , i 'll marry you because i love you . i love you so much . jack : i love you too , carly . hey , katie . katie , do n't go . meagen : `` a miracle happened and i survived one of the biggest tornadoes . `` sara : `` he was a good dad from what we can remember . `` judy : `` even twenty years later i can remember the feeling . `` lynda : a black friday special presentation tonight on the news hour . . . . . . . . they know the city of champions - inside and out . when you need to know , you know where to turn . gord steinke and lynda steele . the news hour - weeknights at 6 , only on global edmonton . our city . our news . . . . . meg : you think you 've got me pegged , that you know what i want before i do . craig : i just do n't see any point keeping up a pretense . meg : then tell me craig . tell me what is it i want . craig : you need me . you have admitted it . and i have admitted i 'm in love with you . that is a lot to build on . meg : not if you still refuse to face the fact that i love paul . craig : paul is dead . it is just the two of us . it 's just you and me . and maybe that 's something you need to face . barbara : you need to come home and be with your family . that 's what 's going to help you recover . paul : not yet mom . barbara : paul , please do n't stay away from us because of meg and craig . paul : i think i just need a little time , that 's all . barbara : okay . and i 'll stay here with you until you 're stronger . paul : no . you should go , because i think i need to stay dead a little longer . barbara : i 'm not going to leave you here in the hospital . you 've only been awake a couple of hours . paul : long enough for me to know exactly what it is i have to do . barbara : okay , then let me help you . paul : you want to help me ? keep quiet . do n't let anybody know that i 'm alive , especially not meg . barbara : you have me at quite a disadvantage , you know ? i 'm just so happy i have you back , i ca n't say no to anything . paul : so i have your word ? barbara : you have my word . lily : carly 's a very resourceful woman . especially when it comes to her children . look what she did to get back to her kids here . sneaking into the country , avoiding the cops -- holden : i agree . she can be very resourceful when she need to be . but this time , all she had to do was ask . lily : what do you mean ? holden : what i mean is , she got the money from you , did n't she ? katie : hey . how are you feeling ? jack : i 'm better now that you 're here . katie : i wanted to give you a little time with your family . jack : yeah , well , when i woke up -- stop that . stop , when i woke up and you were n't here , i got worried . katie : i 've been going out of my mind . i think i 've called this hospital every ten minutes . seeing you on the ground like that , i just -- my heart dropped . jack : yeah , i 'm fine now . katie : j.j. -- thank god , he got out of there . if anything had happened to him . jack : they cleared out before the explosion . katie : do you remember anything ? jack : i remember that you were the last person i talked to before they put me in the ambulance . then i must 've -- must have passed out . katie : yeah , you were barely conscious . jack : did i say anything to you ?

[ iris sighs ] we did n't have much money , so we had to go to this lousy little clinic while i was pregnant . the place should 've been condemned . we brought you with us once . you threw a fit , so we started leaving you home alone . you did n't like that , either . carly : you keep making it sound like it 's my fault you screwed up my life . iris : yeah , well , i 'm not finished with the story yet . you were a little monster . you kept breaking my stuff while you were here . i could n't do anything about it . i could n't punish you , i was n't your ma . i tell you , i was fed up . with both you and your old man . i wanted you both out of my life . but he would n't walk away from the baby i was carrying . he was so sure it was gon na be a boy . carly : he always wanted a son . iris : he was right . i ended up having a little boy . but he came early , too early . ray was at work , and he 'd dumped you over here to stay . they 'd turned off the phone and electricity a few days early because we had n't paid the bills . and i was bleeding pretty bad . i knew i had to get to a clinic . but you would n't let me leave you here , so i had to drag you along . ray took the car , mine was in the shop so we had to walk . so i put the baby in the carriage and off we went . but i was weak , i was bad off . i knew i had to find someone to let me use the phone so i could call a doctor , or at least get a hold of your dad . i told you to wait with the baby . that was the biggest mistake of my life . [ carly remembering ] iris : that 's it . i ca n't push this carriage into that brush . you 're going to have to stay here with the baby while i get help . carly : i do n't want to . iris : you do what i say . i 've had enough of your whining . you stay here , and do n't move . carly : i want to go home . iris : here . now when you hear the ice cream truck , you can go . but you come right back . and bring me the change this time . iris : i must have been out of my mind , delirious from just giving birth . what was i thinking ? leaving you with a boy i knew you already hated ? carly : what happened next ? iris : it took longer than i thought to find some help . nobody was home . i had to go to three houses . when i got back , you were just standing there , holding this ice cream cone in your hand . [ carly remembering ] iris : what happened ? where 's the baby ? you were supposed to stay with him ! where is he ? where 's my boy ? carly : i -- iris : what did you do ? my god , carly , what did you do ? carly : i did n't do anything . iris : oh , you are a liar ! we both know you 're lying . you 've hated him since before he was born . oh , my poor little boy . where is he ? my beautiful boy . where is he ? what have you done to my boy ? iris : you just -- you stared up at me . little miss innocent . like nothing mattered at all except for that damn ice cream cone in your hand . carly : the baby was gone ? iris : yeah , that 's right . my baby was gone . carly : how ? what happened to him ? iris : why are you doing this to me ? ! you know what happened . you know what you did !

[ scene_break ] casey : you know what ? i do n't care what you think . you do n't know maddie at all . when i first met her , she was always joking . but you know what ? it was only because she was afraid to let people see what was on the inside . she has the softest heart of anyone i 've ever met . and a conscience , too . she could never commit murder . it 's just not in her . jade : and you hunted me down to tell me this because ? casey : because you pointed the finger at her . jade : i 'm not the only one who thinks she 's guilty . ann does , too , and so does half of your class . for a really good reason . casey : yeah , it 's a theory with no evidence . the cops would have arrested her if they had anything concrete . jade : maybe . but your mom is pretty fond of her . casey : oh , so now this is a conspiracy . maddie 's a serial killer , but my mom likes her , so she 's not gon na arrest her . get a grip . jade : you know what ? be my guest and hold maddie 's hand if you want to . but just do it in front of a lot of people in broad daylight . casey : you know what ? just lay off , 'cause she did n't do anything . jade : are you trying to convince me or yourself ? [ scene_break ] dallas : now i know you and your sister love maddie very much . and you would do just about anything to protect her -- including lie to the police about her whereabouts during the times of the murders . and believe me -- i can understand that . i have a family , too . and i would hate to know that they 're involved in a crime . but kids are being killed . henry : this has nothing to do with maddie ! dallas : look , you may be right . but if she 's innocent , then we need to figure out what 's troubling her . and why she seems like a suspect . or else the killer just might decide she 's next .

[ scene_break ] henry : so you think maddie 's in danger ? eve : how dare you . what a terrible thing to say . dallas : look , two kids have been killed , okay ? maddie knew both . now , if she had nothing to do with their deaths , she absolutely had something to do with their lives . which means that maddie , too , is also in jeopardy . which is why it is critical for us to get to the truth . henry : okay , so you just want to help maddie , right ? dallas : of course i want to help maddie . henry : all right , that makes you the good cop , right ? and margo 's the bad cop ? eve : so if he 's the good cop , what 's she saying to maddie ? henry : i do n't know , eve , but she 's been in there an awful long time . do n't you think ? eve : yeah , too long . dallas : hey , wait ! eve : is my sister under arrest ? dallas : i 'm sorry , detective . margo : maddie and i are still talking , eve . eve : no , you 're not . if you need anything more from us , you can call my lawyer . come on , baby , i 'm taking you home . [ scene_break ] gwen : what are you saying ? that jade 's after my husband ? barbara : you 're too smart a girl not to have thought of that yourself . i thought so . gwen : okay , it may have occurred to me that jade was interested in him . but i talked to him about it and i asked him point blank if there was something that i should be worried about , and he said no , they 're just friends . and i believe him . barbara : and so do i . but i think you need to consider the possibility that jade will try to do whatever she can to drive a wedge between the two of you . especially now that she knows that he has money . gwen : no , will 's not going to let that happen . barbara : will may not be able to see what she 's doing . gwen , i love my son deeply . but he 's very vulnerable . and that 's my fault . i leaned on him too much when he was little . my marriage was falling apart for all kinds of reasons , and i pushed him , i confided in him , i demanded that he go along with whatever i thought was best . and as a result , he 's swayed easily . i never allowed him to grow up to have the right kind of instincts . i mean , look what happened with that term paper and the test . he allowed himself to be lead in the wrong direction . and then -- and then , when he thought that he had hurt us , he lied . and look what happened . gwen : well , he 's going back to school . barbara : because of you . you 're the best thing that 's ever happened to my son . and i 'm not trying to butter you up or interfere . i just -- i want him happy , that 's all . and i honestly believe that my son will flourish if he stays married to you . which is why you two have to stay together forever . [ scene_break ] will : jade ! jade : hi . you got my message ? will : yeah , i got your message . why could n't you meet me at java ? jade : oh -- casey was there . will : so we could n't meet outside ? you had to drag me all the way down here ? jade : what 's wrong ? is it gwen ? oh , did she feel like i 'm pushing you too much about the money ? will : no , no , she 's fine about the money . jade : okay . so what 's wrong ? will : nothing . let 's just do this . jade : this is a fortune . this is more money than i 've ever seen in my life . will : well , we wanted you to have enough to make a fresh start . jade : i do n't know what i would do without you , will . you 're the most generous man . will : well , you know , it is from both of us . jade : of course . thank you . will : so , i got ta get out of here . jade : you ca n't wait and celebrate with me for a little bit ? will : well , gwen 's waiting . jade : right , okay . will : and now that you 're getting your own place , i think we should cool it . jade : what do you mean ? will : i think you and i need a little space . [ scene_break ] meg : every time i try to back away , i end up facing the same essential truth . i love paul and he loves me . but that does n't mean i 'm blind . i 'm as worried about this situation with emily as you are . which is why i told him i would n't marry him until the baby was born and he sorted things out . emma : that is the smartest thing you have ever done . i 'm very proud of you . meg : well , i 'm not a masochist , mama . i do n't want to be in the middle of all this . the problem is -- okay , he planned this picnic for us , and it was really sweet . it really , really was . emma : i did n't say anything . meg : yeah , well , you do n't have to . the point is , the hospital called -- emily had been admitted because of some problem with the baby . and paul went rushing over there . and he asked me if i wanted to go with him , but i just did n't want to . anyway , he 's doing all the right things and -- emma : and it still does n't feel right ? is that it ? meg : no , it does n't . but i expected that . what i 'm worried about is that i told him to be kind to emily , you know ? i mean , she is pregnant , and we are going to have to deal with her once the baby 's born . emma : and she is the baby 's mother . meg : yes , she is . she 's also emily . and i 'm afraid that she 's going to use his kindness against us . [ scene_break ] paul : is everything all right with the baby ? susan : dr. schiller is running some tests . i 'm going to go find her , see if any results of the results are back in . emily : okay . paul : how 're you holding up ? emily : i 'm okay . how 'd you hear ? paul : the hospital called me . emily : because i did n't ask them to call you . paul : i 'm the father , emily , i should be here . emily : oh , god , i do n't want to lose this baby , paul . paul : you 're not going to lose this baby . emily : you do n't know that ! paul : yes , i do . i know that . emily , everything 's gon na be fine . emily : is meg with you ? paul : she 's very concerned . she said i should come right away . emily : so she 's not here . paul : no . she thought it would be better if i just came by myself . dr. schiller : the tests indicate that you 're showing signs of preeclampsia -- the swelling , the spiking bp , the cramping -- emily : is the baby okay ? dr. schiller : well , the baby 's signs are normal . we 'll treat the preeclampsia , and if you can commit to taking it easy -- emily : i will . i promise . i will do whatever it takes . dr. schiller : it takes bed rest . and no stress . emily : do i have to stay in the hospital ? dr. schiller : i 'll let you got home and we 'll see how you do . but i want you in bed , or on the couch , or the chaise in the yard , understood ? emily : yes , ma'am . dr. schiller : all right , and i 'll see you next week . emily : okay . dr. schiller : susan , i 'll get the scrip to you . susan : okay . paul : that 's great . the baby 's fine . em ? em , are you okay ? you want me to get the doctor to come back ? emily : no . no , he moved . or she . i think it was a foot . you want to feel ? paul : can i ? emily : yeah , sure you can . come on , it 's like the hospital said . i mean , there 's a reason why they called you to be here . you 're the dad . [ scene_break ] emma : meg , we both know that emily will do anything to get what she wants . it does n't matter who she hurts . oh , sweetheart . forgive me , but i really do wish that you could just stay away from both them . that 's what i wish . meg : do you really expect me to stay away from someone i love ? emma : meg , you have loved a lot of people . it 's time that somebody loved you back . meg : but he does . emma : no , not the way you deserve . meg : okay , mom , look -- i do n't need a lecture right now . what i need is some advice . so , how do i handle this ? emma : well , meg -- the baby is not going to go away . if you want paul , you 're just going to have to accept that . and also the fact that emily is here to stay . meg : okay , so , then what ? emma : well , if you really , really want this man , and all his baggage , you just got ta get in there , i guess , and fight for him . that 's all . but listen , you better make sure it 's what you really want . because there is a child involved here . you hear ? so , you had better listen to your heart before you commit to this , otherwise you are going to make a very bad situation worse . [ scene_break ] jade : i thought we were friends . will : we are . but we made a mistake . and if it ever got out , it could ruin my marriage . i ca n't let that happen , so -- since you are going to have your own place now , it 's a good idea if we just take a little rest . you know , we 'll still see each other -- jade : yeah , but what i am supposed to do ? act like i do n't know you ? is that it ? will : no , of course not . jade : you still do n't trust me , do you ? will : no , it 's not that . jade : i 've been so good . i 've kept your secret . i 've been so nice to gwen . will : yeah , you 've been a good friend . jade : so what is this ? insurance ? is it a bribe ? will : no , no , we wanted to help you . jade : i never asked for a dime , you offered . will : jade , it 's not about the money , all right ? i just -- i want to focus on my marriage . [ jade scoffs ] jade : please -- you 're blowing me off . and it really hurts . [ scene_break ] gwen : it means a lot to me that you 're in our corner . but i trust my husband . and he may have let jade help him at school , but he 's not going to start a thing with her . we 're married , and he takes that seriously . barbara : okay , i 'm glad to hear you say that . and i hope you 're right . but you have to be on the lookout here . and you 've got to set some boundaries . no more overnights , no more gifts of money . jade has a job and a apartment . let her take it from there . gwen : okay , you 've got a point . barbara : and no more time alone with your husband . barbara : honey , you are married now . and i realize that all of your friends are probably still living at home with their parents . but you have taken a giant step into the adult world , and the rules are different . married people put each other first . and friends , especially friends of the opposite sex , come in a very distant second . gwen : okay , but the thing is , she 's just not will 's friend . she 's my friend . and we both wanted to give her that money . barbara : but whose idea was it ? gwen : it was will 's , but i agreed . barbara : and did he discuss it with you before he promised this money to her ? gwen : no . barbara : i rest my case . [ scene_break ] dallas : so she mentioned the assault ? margo : well , i think so . she said that -- that she reached for the knife and he was on top of her -- dallas : about nate ? margo : i do n't know . i do n't -- no , i do n't think so . but i think that maybe nate may have done something to trigger a memory of the assault in chicago -- case ? casey : i need to talk to you alone . margo : whoa , that is rude . dallas : it 's okay , casey . i understand . margo : i do n't care what you 've been through . you do not insult one of my officers like that . do you understand ? casey : so where 's maddie ? huh ? did you arrest her ? margo : no , i did not arrest her . she 's not locked up . casey : i know you dragged her in here because everyone at the lakeview is talking about how she was almost tackled in the parking lot . margo : whoa , whoa , wait a minute . you were at the lakeview ? casey : yeah . margo : how many times do we have to have this conversation , casey ? your father and i made it very clear . stay away from her . until this investigation in concluded , stay away from maddie . casey : sorry , mom , i ca n't do that . [ scene_break ] henry : let 's go get our suits . maddie : you want to go swimming now ? henry : yeah , i want to go swimming now . it 's hot . and , hey , instead of cow tipping , we 'll go lake hopping . what do you say ? maddie ? eve : i hear you , louis . i just -- i do n't agree . i 'm sorry . i ca n't . not now . bye . henry : it 'll be fun . come on . eve : sorry about that . henry : who was that ? eve : my neglected husband . he wants to me come home . but do n't worry , honey . i 'm not going anywhere . not until this awful mess is resolved . maddie : i have to go for a walk . eve : a walk . maddie : yeah . eve : i could use a stroll after that stuffy station house . henry : yeah , sure . maddie : by myself . please ? henry : i do n't think that 's a good idea , pumpkin . eve : you heard the police , it 's not safe . there 's a killer out there and he 's targeting teenagers . henry : yeah , so why do n't we go back to plan a ? let 's go for a picnic . eve : yeah . maddie : i 'm not hungry . henry : let 's rent a movie then . maddie : i 'm going for a walk . henry : madeline , what about the killer ? maddie : i 'm not worried about the killer . [ scene_break ] emily : did you feel that ? paul : no . emily : okay , it 's like a little flutter . paul : whoa ! emily : is n't that amazing ? oh , my god , it 's like it 's a signal . it 's like the baby 's in there saying , `` it 's okay , mommy and daddy . i 'm okay . stop worrying about me . `` paul : oh , hey . meg : hey -- paul : oh , i 'm so glad you 're here . we got some good news . everything 's fine with the baby . meg : well , that 's great , paul . i 'm happy for you . [ scene_break ] casey : maddie needs me , mom . everyone from school thinks she killed lia and nate . even you think she did it . margo : what i think does n't matter ! two kids are dead . maddie 's involved . i do n't want you hurt , do you understand ? casey : maddie would never hurt me . margo : do you think that she would 've hurt nate ? casey : no , that 's the point ! she did n't do it ! and if you 'd stop thinking like a cop and thinking like my mom , you 'd realize that . she lived with us . i mean , you know her . this is the girl who would n't sleep without a nightlight on . margo : you know what ? until an investigation is concluded and someone is under arrest -- casey : so she 's guilty until proven innocent ? i did n't think it worked like that , mom . margo : oh , well , are n't you just too smart for your own good ? you know what ? i do n't have time to explain this . stay away from maddie . casey : sorry , mom . i 'm going to need full access . you know why ? because i 'm going to prove you wrong .
