<s>### Instruction:
You are a helpful, respectful and honest assistant. Your task is to summarize the following dialogue. Your answer should be based on the provided dialogue only.
### Dialogue:
Maxie : Summer line in Rio is a stroke of brilliance . Kate is gon na love the idea . I ll have her call you back . Okay . Lucky , hey . Um , how was the memorial ? I m sorry , that was really tactless . I m sure it was difficult for you . We re all really sorry for your loss .
Lucky : It s ... it s okay , Maxie , no one knows the right things to say , including me . Listen , uh , did Lulu come back ? She left the service early , pretty upset .
Maxie : Yeah , she was here , but I have nt seen her . She s having a really tough time .
Lucky : Yeah , right . Well , I ll find her .
Maxie : Lucky , um , I know this is probably not the right time to tell you , but I wanted to say thank you .
Lucky : For what ?
Maxie : Well , when I was younger , I had a heart transplant that saved my life , so , on behalf of all the transplant recipients out there , thank you for the gift of life you gave from Jake .
Jason : Look right there . That s a giraffe . See how long his neck is ? So he can eat the top of the trees . Where do you want to go now ? You know , they eat up to 65 pounds of twigs and leaves a day . Do nt you think that s a lot ? Do nt you think they get thirsty ? They got ta bend that long neck down in the lake and drink some water .
Luke : Is asking about alcohol standard procedure , or did my son request it ?
Dante : Well , it s actually standard . It s for my report .
Luke : I was not impaired . I was in complete control of my faculties and the car . If a cop had pulled me over , I would have walked a straight line , hopped on one foot , rubbed my head and belly with complete and perfect coordination .
Dante : Exactly how much did you have to drink , Luke , the night you hit Jake ?
Abby : Michael , you re on parole . You ca nt have a gun .
Michael : Look , Brandon is dangerous and he s out of police custody .
Abby : I do nt care ! You ca nt take chances ! I dropped those charges because I do nt want you to go back to prison . If you get caught with a weapon , that is exactly what s gon na happen .
Michael : Do nt fight me on this , Abby . I m not gon na leave you unprotected .
Brenda : Oh , babe , it s a-- honey , I love it .
Sonny : That s why I love giving you presents , because you re like a little girl opening it up , you get all excited . That makes me want to give you more presents , so keep it up .
Brenda : I really love it . God , you have good taste .
Sonny : You want me to put it on for you ?
Brenda : Really ? Are you sure ? You re not so good at that stuff .
Sonny : Oh , please , I m the best .
Brenda : Oh , babe , it is so beautiful . It s rose gold . That s my favorite .
Sonny : You know what ? I do nt want to break it . You put it on .
Brenda : No , you do it .
Sonny : Okay .
Brenda : It ll be romantic .
Sonny : Okay . Uh , is this supposed to be magnetic or ...
Brenda : You just go like this .
Sonny : There .
Brenda : Ha ha ! It s so easy .
Sonny : That s great . There you go .
Brenda : Oh , I love it .
Sonny : I am glad I make you happy .
Brenda : Yeah , well , that would be an understatement . It s so sweet you re doing this whole birthday celebration with everything that s going on with Jason , you know , and it s just so nice that you , remembered .
Sonny : Well , I told you that every birthday , I thought about you . So , um ... hey , so , uh , the only thing that kind of makes me feel sad is that I ca nt give you your birthday wish .
Brenda : Oh . Well ... it is true that , uh , the day that I lost my son , every year when that day comes , I just think about him all day .
Sonny : Okay , if you have a shred of doubt , I will call an investigator and we ll check this out .
Brenda : No , no , no . I resent the fact that anybody even put that ridiculous notion into my head . So I had a miscarriage , period .
Sonny : I just do nt want this hanging over you , that s all .
Luke : What difference does it make ? You ca nt prove I was drunk , I ca nt prove I was nt .
Dante : I m trying to figure out how something like this happens .
Luke : Anyone driving on Lexington that night could have hit the kid . He was in the wrong place at the wrong time . That s not an excuse , it s a fact .
Dante : Maybe , but maybe we can find a way to make sure this does nt happen to another child .
Luke : Relax , Officer , I m not driving anywhere today .
Lulu : He would never drive drunk .
Luke : That s not the point , Lulu . The law has its standards , supposedly applied equally to one and all , right or wrong .
Lulu : Yeah , exactly , but you were nt drunk . You have to drink a lot before it takes effect . I ve almost never even seen you drunk .
Dante : Oh , uh ... thank you for your cooperation .
Luke : I have nothing to hide .
Dante : Just so you know , Jake s death is being ruled as an accident .
Luke : I m sure that ll be a tremendous consolation to his family .
Lulu : Dad ... please .
Carly : Hold that for me . Can you watch her ?
Carly : She s pretty special , huh ? Beautiful . Happy .
Jason : You know , it really helps me to know that s she s gon na live .
Carly : It was like déja vu watching you with her . Reading to her . That s the book you used to read to Michael when he was a baby .
Jason : Yes , one of them . I kept them .
Carly : She was mesmerized .
Jason : Um , I guess you missed the part where she tried to rip the book out of my hands .
Carly : You were talking to her about giraffes . She loves giraffes . She sleeps with one every night . I should bring her stuffed animal here . Do me a favor . Do nt stop reading to her . I want you to be as close to Josslyn as you are with Michael .
Jason : I wonder what she s gon na be like when she s Michael s age .
Carly : She s gon na be perfect , just like Michael .
Jason : You just have so many hopes and dreams when ... when a child is born .
Abby : Brandon has to be grateful that I dropped the charges .
Michael : He got away with assault and attempted rape .
Abby : And he could be in prison .
Michael : He should be , but he s not . One threat to take us to court and he s free ? That s too easy . He would nt think twice about doing it again .
Abby : Brandon is a coward at heart , and thanks to you , now he knows that I m being protected by the cops and the mob . We just have to put Brandon out of our lives .
Michael : He is obsessed . He wants you back .
Abby : You re just making assumptions .
Michael : No , I m calling the guy for what he is .
Abby : Michael , you ca nt get caught carrying a gun . You ca nt risk violating your parole . I have been nothing but a problem for Brandon . He would be crazy to come after me again .
Michael : And he is crazy ! He s an animal !
Abby : Look ... I understand why this is so intense for you . Brandon is not the guy who raped you . You have to stop seeing Carter everywhere you look .
Brenda : Um , you know , I had a miscarriage and that s it .
Sonny : You were sick , delirious . I m just saying , why not make sure you know the truth about what happened ?
Brenda : I do wonder what he would have looked like .
Sonny : Do nt go there . Why do you always do that ? You always--
Brenda : I ca nt help it , babe . This is how I am . I mean , I m , you know , emotional , and I start obsessing over things , and I just ca nt stop wondering , you know , would his hair have looked like mine , or , you know , would his eyes be brown , or -- you know , he d be 3 years old right now . He d be running around getting ready for preschool . I just feel like--
Sonny : The last thing I want to do is cause you pain . It s the last thing I want to do . But I m just , you know ... [Sighs ] I just think it s a good idea to find out , that s all .
Brenda : You re right .
Sonny : Right ?
Brenda : Right . Because now that they ve put this idea into my head , the truth is that I ca nt stop thinking about it . So , I do nt know , maybe we should just hire investigators and see--
Sonny : I m gon na call them and--
Brenda : What do we have to lose , right ? You can call people ...
Sonny : We ll get the answer as soon as possible . Okay ?
Brenda : Okay .
Robin : Hi .
Sonny : Oh ...
Brenda : Hey !
Robin : Happy birthday .
Sonny : Hey .
Brenda : Hey , are you okay ?
Robin : Yeah . Hi .
Brenda : Hi .
Robin : Aha . Uh - huh ? You did so good .
Sonny : Well , why would nt I ? You know , I m good at that .
Robin : Yeah , I thought that , you know , with everything going on , I d have to be dropping not - so - subtle hints to you .
Brenda : Guess what . He s a good husband . Who knew ?
Sonny : Yeah , who ... [Laughs ] Well , uh , you know what ? I m -- you know , if -- I think I got ta be somewhere . Um , I got some things I got ta do , so you guys do your little girl talk and everything . And if you want , you can open up wedding presents , cause I m --
Brenda : That s not funny . That s not even funny .
Sonny : What are you talking--
Brenda : That s not a funny joke . We re opening up the presents together and we re writing the thank - you cards together . So do nt try to be funny .
Sonny : I m busy . I got ta go do something .
Brenda : Listen , sweetheart , we will wait all the way until Christmas and send out late thank - you cards if we have to , but you and I are doing this together , period .
Sonny : Ohh ... now she s gonna-- what ? She s ordering me around like a puppy dog .
Brenda : Yes , that s correct .
Robin : But you love it .
Sonny : Yeah , I do . Okay . I ll see you later .
Brenda : Bye , sweetheart .
Sonny : Bye .
Robin : Bye . [ Laughs ] You have the sappiest look on your face .
Brenda : I know , because he s so perfect , I want to die ... over him .
Abby : I have no illusions about Brandon . He tore me down , and I thought so little of myself that I put up with it . But I woke up one day and I realized I had to get away from him and just rebuild my life .
Michael : You told Brandon no over and over again and he never listened . He kept coming after you . It has nothing to do with you . You did nt to anything wrong . It s all on him .
Abby : I get that . I just do nt want you to overreact .
Michael : This guy is not gon na stop on his own . And giving in like this is not--
Abby : You re talking about Carter . I mean , so much of your stuff is tied into this , Michael . I mean , you were attacked in prison and you re still just coming to terms with it , wanting to fight the guy who did this to you . But he s dead . Brandon is not the one who did this .
Michael : You have no idea what s going on inside Brandon s head . And if there s even a chance he could attack you again , I would nt be able to live with myself knowing I let that happen .
Abby : Look , I appreciate you trying to protect me .
Michael : Then let me .
Abby : Michael , you know how to fight if you need to . You do nt need to carry a gun . Especially when I truly believe that Brandon wo nt come around again .
Michael : Look , you always see the best in people . You give them the benefit of the doubt even if they do nt deserve it . Which is pretty amazing , considering all you ve been through .
Abby : Can we just do this my way , please ? No gun .
Michael : Look , I m not gon na start waving it around , but I m keeping the gun , because if Brandon comes back again and he tries to hurt you , I ll stop him .
Jason : How s Shawn working out ?
Carly : Good . He s great with Josslyn . Jax freaked out , but I ll have to try and figure that one .
Jason : Yeah , it s only temporary . I m gon na start looking for Franco .
Carly : We talked about this . You re not in any shape to go after Franco .
Jason : Yeah , Franco s not going away , Carly .
Carly : Okay , fine , he s not going away . So you have time . You have to grieve , Jason , or you re never gon na get past this . Take the time you need .
Maxie : Lukewarm latte . I got it this morning for Kate .
Lucky : Thanks . She s not coming in , huh ?
Maxie : She had an appointment . Honestly , I think she s avoiding Lulu . Kate s not exactly the nurturing type . She does nt really know what to say .
Lucky : Yeah , well , no one does .
Maxie : They all feel really bad , Lucky . It s just hard to put into words .
Lucky : Yeah , you know , I ve been trying to figure out how to comfort Elizabeth , but she s drowning in guilt right now , and I m the one who left her on overload . Jake and Cam were supposed to be with me that night . Instead , I was off ... being married on a whim .
Maxie : You thought Jake was with his mother . There s no way you could have known .
Lucky : You know , I keep playing that night over in my head . It s like an endless loop that wo nt stop . You know , Siobhan and I before the justice of the peace , my dad standing up as our witness , having no idea that he just came from hitting Jake . And then my cell phone rings and it s Elizabeth , and , you know , I m completely irritated . I think that she s calling for some petty thing about the boys as an excuse to interrupt the wedding . But when I pick up ... Elizabeth s crying . I m telling you , Maxie , you never want to hear that kind of fear in a mother s voice . And then she says the words ... Jake was hit by a car .
Luke : Are you sure you want to have this conversation in front of your boyfriend ?
Lulu : Well , you said we have nothing to hide .
Dante : Look , I got what I need , so I can just go and--
Lulu : No , it s no secret . Stay .
Luke : What is nt a secret , my drinking or your sudden concern ?
Lulu : Dad , I know that you would never drive drunk . It was an accident . But Lucky s not there yet , and he s very sensitive about addiction issues , and it s very easy to blame your drinking .
Luke : Whatever Lucky needs right now to get through this is okay by me .
Lulu : He s looking for someone or something to blame . It should not be you .
Luke : But I am responsible . I m the one who hit his kid .
Lulu : Yeah , okay , you -- it was an accident , Dad , and Lucky is gon na realize that , but he s not there yet , so I m just asking you not to drink while Lucky s grieving . It s gon na cause more problems .
Luke : I wo nt be something I m not .
Lulu : You can be sensitive to Lucky right now .
Luke : Now , or later , I m still the guy who killed his child .
Lulu : Lucky s gon na come to some kind of peace with it . But do nt give him the chance to blame your drinking . Give him room to realize that he ca nt blame you .
Luke : That s what I m telling you , Lulu . I am to blame .
Brenda : I ca nt believe that Jason lost a son I did nt even know he had . And now we find out that Luke s the driver . It s horrible . I feel like a jerk opening up presents , and I m so in love I ca nt even see straight .
Robin : What do you mean ?
Brenda : And there s all these horrible things going on .
Robin : No , you re not a jerk . You ve wanted to be with Sonny for a long time . You guys finally are . You deserve to be happy .
Brenda : Yeah , well , it does nt really have anything to do with what we deserve or do nt deserve , right ? I mean , Elizabeth does nt deserve this . Lucky does nt deserve this . Luke does nt deserve this .
Robin : But your happiness does nt come at their expense , you know , so just be happy and grateful for the good things . That s all we can do . Now you and Sonny are back together , and , um , um , Patrick and I are back together .
Brenda : Does--
Brenda : What ? Are you serious ? Why did nt you tell me about this ?
Robin : I m telling you right now .
Brenda : Do nt be -- dont be-- do nt be a smart - aleck right now . I mean , I m serious . Last time we spoke , you said that you could nt trust him , and for a very good reason , by the way .
Robin : I do nt know , I think when we lost Jake , I ... I did nt want to let the past get in the way of our future anymore .
Brenda : Well , that makes sense . You must really love him .
Robin : I do really love him . And I love our family , and ... I ve just really grateful that we have a second chance .
Brenda : So you re happy ?
Robin : I am . You know , it feels like the right thing to do . Obviously , we have a lot of work to do , but we decided to go to marriage counseling .
Brenda : Well , that s good . That s great . So , if you guys did nt have Emma , do you think that you would still be getting back together ?
Robin : [ Clears throat ] Well , that s a good question . I do nt know . When she was born , it was like she -- she completed our family , you know ? So I do nt know . It s hard to describe .
Brenda : I get it .
Robin : I love being a mom .
Brenda : It must be so great to be a mom .
Carly : She s sleeping .
Sonny : All right . I , uh , walked by your bodyguard . I m surprised Jason hired a stranger to protect you .
Carly : Okay , Brenda was complaining . He just took her to the car like I asked him to .
Sonny : Brenda was just here to make peace with you .
Carly : If this is where you come to me and you tell me that you guys are married and we have to be all warm and fuzzy , you know I ca nt handle that .
Sonny : Not at all . I m not here to fight with you . I just came to check on Josslyn .
Carly : She s good .
Sonny : Yeah ?
Carly : Yeah . I did nt see you at the memorial .
Sonny : [ Sighs ] I couldnt-- I could nt do it , you know ? I mean , we stayed home .
Carly : Jason was nt there .
Sonny : Yeah .
Carly : Have you seen him ?
Sonny : Well , as soon as I came back from Italy , I went to see him , and , uh ...
Carly : He s not good ?
Sonny : No , not good .
Carly : Yeah , it s awful . He s gon na have such a hard time with this because he just -- he ca nt express himself . He ca nt talk about how he s feeling . We re gon na have to stand by him the way he s always stood by us .
Sonny : He told me that it was Luke who hit Jake .
Carly : An awful , terrible accident . Oh , my God .
Sonny : You know what ? I know you re strong , but you re dealing with a lot right now as far as the , you know , you re worried about Jason and -- if you need anything , if you want , you know ... I m here to help you .
Carly : Thank you . I m just trying to take it day by day and ... wrap my head around how little Jake had to die so Josslyn could live .
Sonny : Sometimes , you know , we just -- we just got ta be grateful .
Carly : I am .
Sam : Michael , hi .
Michael : Hey , Sam . Um , is Jason around ?
Sam : No , he was nt here when I got back from the memorial . Come on in , though . Yeah , he s been spending a lot of time alone lately . He was gon na go to the memorial . He was dressed , he was ready to go , but he just , he could nt go through with it .
Michael : Yeah , I do nt blame him .
Sam : I saw you there with your family .
Michael : Yeah , yeah , my mom wanted to pay her respects .
Sam : Of course .
Michael : Um , do you know when Jason s gon na be back , by any chance ?
Sam : I do nt , no . But , please , feel free to stay here and wait . I actually have to run to the office , so it ll be really good for you to be here when he gets home , so he s not alone . Just make yourself at home , okay ?
Michael : Thank you .
Sam : You re welcome .
Michael : Hey .
Jason : What s going on ? You all right ?
Michael : Yeah . I just wanted to stop by , see if you need anything .
Abby : We got ta get you a key . [ Chuckles ]
Brandon : I ll take you up on that .
Abby : You should nt be here .
Brandon : You know what ? You dropped the charges , so it seemed kind of rude to call on the phone , so I thought I d come here and thank you in person .
Abby : You re welcome .
Brandon : Oh , whoa . We re having a conversation here .
Abby : Brandon , I do nt want to do this .
Brandon : You get that I was just upset the other night , right ? It s just ... you just make me so mad sometimes , Abby . But we re cool now , right ?
Abby : Yeah , I -- I wish you well . I hope you make the most of your freedom . Please do nt contact me again .
Brandon : Hey . You forgave me , Abby . Now , I am willing to forgive you . I know you want me back .
Abby : I ll never be back with you !
Brandon : Do nt pull that crap on me ! You will always be mine .
Abby : Uhh !
Brandon : Ohh !
Abby : No ! No ! No !
Brandon : Do nt you talk back to me , bitch !
Abby : Stop it !
Lucky : You know , during the memorial I found myself thinking about that movie that comes on every Christmas , about the guy who finds out what it would be like if he d never been born .
Maxie : I love that movie .
Lucky : Yeah , me , too . I was just , uh ... I mean , I could nt help but wonder what Jake would have grown up to be if he d lived . You know ? How many lives he would have touched , what his kids would have been like . You know , he loved airplanes . He loved flying . Maybe he would have been a pilot or an astronaut or something . I had this fantasy of him being the captain of a space shuttle . You know , orbiting the earth and looking down from the heavens and all that .
Maxie : You were proud of him .
Lucky : Yeah , it was easy . He was such an amazing kid .
Maxie : Such a cutie . I played with Jake and Cam at Emma s birthday party . They were happy and laughing , and he was playing with every toy he could get his hands on .
Lucky : Every time Jake would see me , he d run up , give me a hug , almost knock the breath out of me .
Maxie : His life was too short , but he was happy and secure because of what a wonderful dad you were .
Spinelli : Maximista , I m -- oh . Lucky , uh ... I gather your son s memorial was today . My most heartfelt condolences on your loss .
Lucky : I appreciate that , Spinelli . Thank you . And thanks for the latte and for listening .
Maxie : You do nt have to go .
Lucky : Uh , thanks , but I m -- there s something I have to face up to .
Lulu : I m so frustrated about my dad . Hitting Jake was an accident , but he still blames himself , and I think that he s drinking because he wants Lucky to be mad at him , because he wants to be punished .
Dante : If I were Lucky and I saw my father throwing down the whiskey like he is , and given the circumstances , I would have taken the glass out of his hands and knocked him on his ass .
Lulu : I know , I know . That s why I have to explain this to Lucky .
Dante : I do nt know that you do .
Lulu : This is my family . They ve been through so much , and they finally get back together because they love each other so much , and now they re facing a tragedy that s so horrible that they ca nt feel that love .
Dante : Can I make an observation here ?
Lulu : Sure .
Dante : I think you re on overdrive . You re trying to take care of everybody-- Lucky , Luke , Elizabeth .
Lulu : Well , I have to do something .
Dante : Yeah , you got ta grieve . You lost your nephew .
Lulu : Yeah , but my family is way worse off than me .
Dante : Maybe , but you ca nt fix it , Lulu . You ca nt lessen their loss . You got ta look after yourself . And whatever happens , I m here to help you .
Lulu : Thank you .
Carly : When the doctor told me that Josslyn had cancer ... I ve never been so scared in my life . Cancer . She s not even 2 years old . And then he says we have to start chemotherapy immediately because organ donors for children are just so rare . And that s when ... everything happened with Jake . [ Sighs ] And I had to go to Jason and ask him ... he convinced Lucky and Elizabeth .
Sonny : I can not imagine how hard it was going to Jason the night his ... his kid died . But you did the right thing . I mean , look . Look at Josslyn . Living proof , right ?
Carly : The doctors say she s making an amazing recovery . I m afraid to trust it .
Sonny : She s strong and resilient like her mother .
Carly : She is . Oh , Sonny , when something like this happens , you just realize how fragile life is . You know no matter how hard you fight ... no matter what you do , you could lose the battle . Lucky and Jason could nt do anything to save Jake . It was totally out of their control .
Sonny : One thing that you have to understand -- we are very thankful that our kids are alive .
Carly : That s amazing to me , with all the hell Michael s been through .
Sonny : But you never gave up on Michael or Josslyn . I know that if you did nt find a donor , you would have done everything you could to get her through this .
Carly : You have more faith than I have in myself , you know that ?
Sonny : No , I m just proud of you . And I m , you know , very happy that your daughter s gon na be okay .
Carly : Thank you for being here . It means a lot .
Michael : You ve always looked out for me , and now you re hurting . Look , Jason , if there s anything that you need at all ...
Jason : Yeah , there is . There is one thing .
Michael : Name it .
Jason : I just want you to live your life the best way you can .
Michael : I am trying .
Jason : I was , um ... I was at the hospital reading a book on Africa to Josslyn . And I was remembering how I read it to you , you know , how smart you were and how -- how curious about everything you were , and sometimes I just worry that all the ... all the bad things that you ve lived through have narrowed your focus .
Michael : I m not like other kids my age .
Jason : I know you re not . I m just saying that you have to find your own way . You got ta find a way to let go of the past and start working toward a future .
Michael : What if I do nt know what that is ?
Jason : Then you got years to figure it out . But your life is a gift . Please make the most of it .
Spinelli : I -- I apologize for interrupting your tête - à - tête with Lucky .
Maxie : That s okay . He needed to leave anyway .
Spinelli : But I m sure he appreciated your words of condolence . The Jackal knows well that Maximista s sympathy and wise counsel are soothing to the troubled soul .
Maxie : I m not half as kind as you are , Spinelli , but thank you . Is that your book ?
Spinelli : Yes , um , newly published and yours . Although given Lucky s tragedy , it seems frivolous in the extreme .
Maxie : No , Spinelli , this book is a great accomplishment . You should be so proud .
Spinelli : I m grateful for your words of encouragement and your offer to do a write - up of The Secret Life of Damien Spinelli in Crimson , but you do nt need to feel obligated in any way .
Maxie : I would be more than happy to . You are the most brilliant person that I know . I mean , first with the video games and now the book . You are so creative , Spinelli . I m really impressed .
Spinelli : I m humbled by your praise .
Maxie : You know , even though we did nt work out as a couple , I m really happy for the time we spent together . You made me a better person , Spinelli . I m always gon na love you .
Spinelli : You know , I have to confess , you are the inspiration for the book . You ll always be an inspiration to me .
Sam : Hi . Did you speak to Michael ?
Jason : Yeah . He asked what he could do for me .
Sam : Well , that was really thoughtful . Not that I m surprised . So what did you tell him ? If it s private , I do nt have to know .
Jason : I , uh , I told him that being alive is a gift . You know , I was trying to make him see that he had so many choices , so many opportunities , but the whole time I was wondering ... was I even right to give up Jake ? I mean , could I have done any better for him than I ve done for Michael ?
Sam : You did what you thought was best at the time .
Jason : [ Sighs ] Sonny said you dont ... you do nt save a child by giving him up . I m thinking he was right .
Abby : [ Sniffles ] How was Jason ?
Michael : Uh ... you know , he said stuff that really made me think . You know , like I need to make the most of my life and ... figure out what I really want . I do nt know , maybe I ve just been looking in the most obvious direction . Brandon ?
Abby : He did nt rape me , Michael , he just -- no , Michael , you ca nt do anything . Promise me ! It s not worth it ! Michael ! Please !
Lucky : Hey , Dad .
Luke : Hi . Dante was here earlier . He took my statement .
Lucky : He cleared you . There s no way to prove you were intoxicated , so no charges will be filed .
Luke : Huh . Case closed .
Lucky : Drinking vodka now ? I guess scotch does nt taste so good anymore , since that s what you were drinking the night Jake died ?
Jason : I always told myself that Jake was better off , that missing him was the price I had to pay for knowing that he was safe . But now we know . Kids get sick ... like Josslyn . And kids can ... die . All I did was miss out on the chance of knowing my son .
Sam : All we can do ... is love while we have the chance .
Michael : Hey ! Why would you come back to the place where you almost raped Abby ? What , do you get some sick thrill thinking about what you almost did to her ?
Brandon : I figured you might be here , all pissed cause I had to smack Abby into line .
Michael : You re sick .
Brandon : Yeah , well , Abby does nt think so . She knows things just got out of hand the last time we were here . Happens to every couple now and then .
Michael : Stay the hell away from Abby .
Brandon : [ Chuckles ] You are long over due for a payback , buddy . And when you crawl out of this alley , you re gon na leave my property alone .
Michael : You re never gon na touch Abby again .

Brooke : He s been a destructive force in our lives for a very long time . I do nt like this either . I wish you were living here . I wish you were back home with me .
Ridge : Yeah , I want that , too , but how can I put all this behind us when every time I turn around , you blame thomas for something ?
Brooke : Of course I do because this is all his fault . That s the reason why you re living over at eric s , away from me , while shauna is living across the courtyard .
Ridge : Shauna has nothing to do with this . But there is something you should know .
Shauna : How do you think it s going over there ?
Quinn : Well , we can go down to the guesthouse and sneak a peek .
Shauna : No . [ Chuckles ] Oh , flo will be overjoyed to see him . I mean , she would kill me for telling you this , but she thinks about him all the time .
Quinn : Well , he has nt forgotten about her either .
Shauna : Well , you also wo nt let him . [ Chuckles ]
Quinn : Because no one s ever made my son happier .
Shauna : I told her to stay in touch with him . But , you know , after her surgery , she just kinda wanted to be on her own for a bit .
Quinn : With everything that she s been through , I think a little time alone is a good thing .
Shauna : If it leads her back to wyatt , I agree .
Flo : You know , I was nt really even sure if I should tell you how much I have missed you .
Wyatt : You were going to play it cool , huh ?
Flo : Mm - hmm .
Wyatt : Yeah , me , too . I was gon na .
Flo : I just did nt wanna , you know , make things awkward .
Wyatt : You could nt possibly do that . We ve known each other for way too long , flo . As much as I wanna believe that I m not that dummy with the bad hair you used to date in high school , um ...
Flo : [ Laughs ]
Wyatt : ... Part of me will always be that guy .
Flo : Well , I like that guy and his hair .
Wyatt : You know what I like ?
Quinn : What ?
Wyatt : Seeing you smile again .
Quinn : Wyatt was deeply moved by what flo did for katie .
Shauna : And she did nt donate her kidney to win him back , although I could nt stop myself from hoping .
Quinn : Well , do nt give up just yet . Flo is still this sweet young woman that my son fell in love with .
Shauna : And , yes , she made a horrible mistake . But she s working so hard to move on from that .
Quinn : Would nt it be wonderful if she and wyatt could do that together ?
Shauna : Oh , it would be so wonderful . Do you think that they could ?
Quinn : Mm - hmm .
Shauna : Do you think there s a chance that wyatt and flo can have a future together ?
Flo : You know , when my mom did nt tell me about any of your wedding plans , I kinda just assumed that she was sparing me the details .
Wyatt : Right .
Flo : You and sally have been engaged for quite a while now .
Wyatt : Uh , yeah . You know , we ve , uh-- & [ Clears throat ] We ve both been really busy lately . You know , she wants to work , working on steffy s collection , that new line and everything . And I ve been busy filling liam in on all the spencer business . Uh , but to tell you the truth , we ve barely seen a lot of each other lately .
Flo : It must be hard . I m really sorry , wyatt .
Wyatt : It -- it s fine . Uh , my mom s not . [ Laughs ] She , uh -- she keeps telling me that if I was actually meant to marry sally that I would ve made it happen already .
Flo : Quinn really has nt warmed up to her at all ?
Wyatt : Come on . You know my mom and how fierce she can be about loyalty .
Flo : Yes . So I m guessing that she talks about me as much as my mom talks about you , which would be a lot .
Wyatt : Yeah , pretty much . Yeah . She-- [ Chuckles ] She just , uh -- she just does nt want me to forget how much we meant to each other . Not that I could ever forget about that . It s just , you know , things have kinda changed between us lately , and ... I mean , some things never will , I guess .
Brooke : I do nt wanna talk about shauna .
Ridge : I realize she s a sensitive subject .
Brooke : Shauna encouraged flo to keep on lying about beth .
Ridge : I know . But , look , they both tried to make up for that . Look what flo did for katie .
Brooke : [ Sighs ] Okay . We appreciate flos sacrifice , but that does nt absolve her , ridge . And it certainly does nt change the way I feel about her mother .
Ridge : I know that . But shauna , she s been trying to help heal this family , and she supports me and what I m trying to do for thomas .
Brooke : Oh , my god . You know , she would say or do anything just to be near you . You know , I m sorry I brought her up . I do nt wanna talk about her . I wanna talk about us .
Ridge : It is about us . And I m trying to fix this . And ... I ca nt if there s secrets between us . I dont -- I do nt want that , not even little ones .
Brooke : So , you have a secret about shauna ? Shauna and I , we ve been spending a lot of time at dad s house . And she knows how hard I m trying to-- to fix this relationship , and-- and there were a few moments when our friendship crossed a line .
Brooke : Crossed a line .
Ridge : We kissed .
Brooke : [ Sighs ]
Wyatt : Is that why you have nt been around lately ? Trying to hit the reset button .
Flo : Yeah . This last year was just ... crazy . So kinda wanted some time to myself to ... think about who I really am and what really matters to me .
Wyatt : Did it work ?
Flo : Yeah . It did .
Wyatt : Good . Back to your old self again .
Flo : Well , minus a kidney .
Wyatt : Oh . Right . Yeah . Who could forget . Katie is taking really good care of that ...
Flo : Oh , good .
Wyatt : ... By the way . Yeah .
Flo : It s probably my mom texting from the house again .
Wyatt : I mean , our mothers are not very subtle , are they ?
Flo : [ Laughs ] No .
Wyatt : Oh . It s katie .
Flo : Yeah , she texted me , too .
Wyatt : She wants us to get together .
Flo : She wants me to come . What s going on ?
Wyatt : You do nt wanna go ?
Flo : Well , do you think that brooke and hope are going to be there ?
Wyatt : I do nt know . I do nt know . I do nt know how they feel about you , but I do know that katie is very grateful . She ca nt stop talking about how thankful she is and how much she owes you . I do nt know . I -- I -- I think-- I think you should go .
Flo : Will you come with me ?
Wyatt : Um ...
Quinn : Has ridge come back to visit ?
Shauna : No .
Quinn : No ? Not since he signed the divorce papers ?
Shauna : I ve been here for ridge as a friend , but he s still devoted to brooke .
Quinn : Well , he s hoping that she gets over her animosity towards thomas . But from what I hear from eric , that s not happening .
Shauna : I ca nt believe it .
Quinn : What ? That brooke can be so stubborn ?
Shauna : And reckless . I mean , does nt she realize what she would be giving up ?
Quinn : Brooke does nt know what happened in the guesthouse .
Shauna : Well , there s no reason for her to know . I mean , ridge did nt betray her . And if I had a man like that devoted to me , I would do anything I could to keep him .
Quinn : Yeah . I think brooke would feel a little bit differently if she knew how close you and ridge have gotten .
Shauna : Well , I ca nt deny that we do have a powerful connection .
Quinn : Hmm .
Shauna : But so do he and brooke .
Quinn : Yes . But he s been kissing you , and all he does is argue with her .
Brooke : I do nt believe it , ridge . You did nt do that . Really ? Did you really kiss shauna ?
Ridge : It did nt go any further .
Brooke : [ Sighs ] Not for her lack of trying , I m sure . I told you about her . I warned you that this would happen .
Ridge : She s not ... she s a friend . She knows I wanna be with you . She s aware of that . Then why would she kiss you ? And more importantly , why would you kiss her ?
Ridge : I made a mistake . And I -- I -- I wanna tell you everything . That s -- I do nt want there to be any more secrets . That s why I told you .
Brooke : Oh , god . Okay . Yeah . Well , now we have to deal with this , do nt we ? And on top of everything else . On top of everything trying to tear us apart . First there s thomas , and now there s shauna . Why , ridge ? I do nt get it . Why would you do that ? Why would you let that woman come between us ? You know I d love to be there . It s just super far
Flo : Do you think that i should bring them something ? Like a bottle of wine or a present for will ? Or ...
Wyatt : I think you gave em the best gift they could ve ever received .
Flo : [ Sighs ] Can you come with me , please ? I would feel so much better if you came with me .
Wyatt : You re gon na be fine . All right ? You just ... if you wanna get on my dad s good side , just -- I do nt know -- compliment his shirt or something . He likes that .
Flo : [ Laughs ] Okay .
Wyatt : Yeah .
Flo : I m not gon na push it , but ... it would be nice to spend some more time with you .
Wyatt : Yeah .
Flo : Well , I better go .
Wyatt : Uh , before you do , though , um , I just-- I wanted to tell you that ... you did -- you did a really beautiful thing . All right ? And ... you should be proud of yourself .
Flo : Thank you .
Shauna : I do nt wanna come in between ridge and brooke .
Quinn : Yeah . But if they do end up splitting up , then you ll be there to comfort him .
Shauna : Well , that s what friends are for .
Quinn : [ Laughs ]
Eric : Quinn , let s eat out-- oh , hi . Shauna , hello .
Shauna : Hi .
Eric : Do you wanna join us for lunch ?
Shauna : Oh , well , that s very kind of you , but I really should get back to my daughter .
Quinn : Oh . Flo stopped by the guesthouse .
Shauna : I hope that s okay .
Eric : Of course it is . I want you to feel completely at home here .
Shauna : Oh , I do . I am so grateful to the both of you for allowing me to stay on your beautiful property . And , you know , it s been wonderful spending all this time with my best friend and getting to know all of you .
Eric : Having you here has made my wife very happy .
Quinn : Hmm . And thankful . Especially to my most generous husband . Having my best friend here and just remembering where I came from , it just makes me all the more appreciative of the life that we share together . Nothing means more to me .
Brooke : I know you do nt wanna be with shauna , ridge . You couldnT. But it still hurts .
Ridge : I m sorry .
Brooke : I told you what she was after , but you wanted to see the best in her , just the same way you wanna see the best in thomas .
Ridge : There s a lot of stuff coming at us right now , but i think we can figure this out . We can . You re still my wife .
Brooke : And I know that you love me . And I love you , too . But I just feel like we re under attack here . I mean , do nt you see it ? Thomas did what he could to drive a wedge between us . And then shauna , she moves right in . I mean , it s so obvious , right ? She moved into the guesthouse to be near you .
Ridge : Shauna was already living there when-- when I went off to dadS.
Brooke : Oh . Okay . So what happened ? So quinn invited her over ? Because eric would nt do that . So it was quinn .
Ridge : What are you doing ? Come on . That s --
Brooke : Oh , yeah . I mean , that makes perfect sense . She s always hated me , so she got her best friend to go and seduce you .
Ridge : Okay . If you wanna be angry at someone , be angry at me .
Brooke : Ridge , I am . I am angry at you , but I m also angry at quinn and shauna .
Ridge : I mean , you have been focusing on your son . You ve been there for him . You ve been busy doing that . So you did nt see that you fell right into their trap . Well , I sure as hell am not gon na let quinn and shauna hijack my future with you .
Ridge : Hey , what s going on ?
Shauna : Are you free after work ? I thought maybe we could have our own private cocktail hour in the guesthouse and let eric and quinn enjoy their alone time with their tequila and martinis for a change .
Ridge : I do nt think that s a good idea .
Shauna : All right . Fine . No drinks . Dinner ?
Ridge : I ca nt do that either . Look , shauna , I told brooke about us .
Shauna : Like what good friends we are ?
Ridge : I was honest with her . She s my wife . I m trying to figure things out , and I -- I -- just ... I do nt wanna have any secrets from her . So I told her we kissed .
Shauna : How did she react ?
Ridge : She was upset . And I hate that I hurt her .
Eric : No , that s fine . I m glad to have it resolved . If she has any other questions , have her call me directly . Yes . Thank you . Bye .
Brooke : Oh , good . You re here .
Eric : Brooke , hi . This is a surprise .
Brooke : [ Sighs ] Eric , this has got to stop . Look , I know this is your home , and you re a very kind , compassionate man , and you wanna do everything for everybody . You want there to be enough room . But enough is enough .
Eric : Brooke , thomas is only here because ridge wanted him here .
Brooke : No , this is nt about thomas . It s -- this is about shauna .
Eric : Shauna .
Brooke : Shauna ca nt stay here . She s not to be trusted .
Eric : Well , shauna is quinn s very dear friend . Now , I know there was conflict between shauna s daughter and hope .
Brooke : Oh , it s more than that , eric . I m trying to protect my marriage .
Eric : What is it , brooke ? What s happened ?
Brooke : You know ridge and i are doing everything we can to keep our relationship together . We signed the divorce papers , but ridge has nt filed them yet . We re still legally married . And shauna is doing whatever she can to move in on my husband .
Eric : Well , I know they ve become friends .
Brooke : No . She kissed him . She s trying to seduce him .
Eric : No , brooke . No .
Brooke : Yes , eric . Ridge told me all about it . Ridge and I are devoted to each other . We really wanna work this out . But shauna sees this as a weakness . She sees this as an opportunity . So she is making a move on my husband , and your wife is helping her do that .
Eric : No . Quinn would nt do that .
Brooke : Yes . By allowing shauna to live here , she s allowing shauna to undermine my marriage to ridge .
Eric : Look , I understand why you re upset with shauna . But -- but quinn is just being a good friend .
Brooke : Oh , my god , eric . I know you love her , but I have never trusted her , and I ve never forgiven her for all of the horrible things that she has done to us . And it really kills me-- it kills me to see her portrait above the fireplace where stephanie belongs .
Eric : Brooke , you re talking about ancient history .
Brooke : I am talking about human decency , eric . I have nt forgotten the time when she was trying to seduce ridge . Now shauna is doing the exact same thing . They are two of a kind . They do nt belong here . I want shauna out of here , and I want her to take her dear friend quinn with her .

### Dialogue:
Clyde : Oh , damn . I m going to have to call in a cleaner .
JJ : You killed him ?
Clyde : I m a businessman , son . I just took care of business .
Paige : JJ ! Oh , my God . What is--
JJ : Shh . Stop it . Someone is probably watching . I ll meet you at the park in ten , okay ? Our spot .
Paige : JJ--
JJ : You need to go . If anything happened to you , I d die . Go .
Aiden : Yes , I am very clear about your expectation . Have I proven myself by now ? I would nt dream of letting you down .
Victor : I do nt have time for your half - baked conspiracy theories .
Steve : Even if it s true ? Even if your son s in trouble ? Victor , these letters were not written by Beauregard Aurelius Brady . And I can prove it .
Hope : I m sorry I could nt make it to Serena s funeral . How are you doing ?
Eric : There were only a dozen people there . You know , I m the whole reason that Serena came to Salem ?
Hope : Well , you and the diamonds .
Eric : Yeah , well I m the reason she stayed . You know , the last time I saw her I told her I forgave her ... but I did nt think we could be friends . That s why she was drowning her sorrows here that night .
Hope : Eric , hey ... this is nt your fault .
Eric : Listen , is there any new leads on the case ? I mean , do you have any other suspects besides Chad ?
Rafe : What does the medical examiner say ?
Cop : Serena mason s autopsy report is still pending . But we got a lead on the key found near the crime scene .
Rafe : Does forensics think they can trace the owner ?
Cop : Yep . It s the key to the main gate at DiMera mansion .
Rafe : It was found in the bushes when CSI did a second sweep .
Roman : Yeah , how many people got a key to the DiMera s front gate ? You know , between that napkin with Chad s DNA and this new evidence , he s looking guiltier by the minute .
Rafe : Do nt you think this is all a little convenient ? One thing that the DiMera s are nt , usually , is sloppy .
Roman : No . No , you re right about that . But he had been drinking , and if it was a crime of passion--
Rafe : Yeah , but he just met Serena that night .
Roman : Yeah , but we know Chad does nt handle rejection well . Ask Ben Weston . Look , Rafe .
Rafe : Yeah .
Roman : We got a murderer loose out there , and we need him off the streets ASAP .
Justin : And right now Chad DiMera s our main suspect . You ve got more than enough evidence to hold him on , and I know I can get an indictment . So what s the hold - up ? Do your job and arrest the bastard already .
Eric : Are you kidding me ?
Hope : Eric , sit down . Do nt . It wo nt bring Serena back . It ll only cause more pain and grief for yourself .
Eric : I just ca nt stand the sight of that guy .
Hope : Let s get out of here .
Chad : Hello ?
Abigail : I need to see you .
Chad : I do nt think that s such a good idea .
Abigail : There s something you need to know .
JJ : Hey . I m sorry . I went through this crazy convoluted way to make sure no one was following me .
Paige : JJ , this is way too dangerous . Clyde mailed you a bullet ? That s like a death threat .
JJ : He s just making sure I know he s watching .
Paige : Okay , I know Clyde warned you against going to the cops . But you have to have a way of getting through to your contact at the DEA , or--
JJ : I ca nt take that chance . If Clyde hurts my mom or my sister or you , I ...
Paige : So , now what ?
JJ : I was hired to bring down the head of this drug operation . And that s what I m going to do . But I have to do it my way , so Clyde never sees it coming .
Paige : How can I help you ?
JJ : By staying out of it .
Paige : JJ--
JJ : I mean it , Paige . Stay the hell away .
Abigail : I was at work , and I overheard one of the officers talking about the murder investigation . There was a new piece of evidence found at the park near Serena s body . It was the key to the gate at the DiMera mansion .
Chad : [ Laughs ]
Abigail : Is it yours ? Chad , hey , you can tell me , okay ? Were you at the park that night with Serena ?
Chad : The truth is ... I m not sure .
Abigail : What do you mean you re not sure ? How could you not know ?
Chad : I do nt remember everything that happened that night .
Justin : Why are you so sure Chad DiMera s innocent ?
Rafe : Why are you so sure he s guilty ?
Justin : Well , by Chad s own admission , he had an altercation with the victim that night . Confirmed by several eyewitnesses . A napkin with his blood on it was found at the crime scene . And his story about what happened that night keeps changing . In fact , the only thing that is consistent is that he has no alibi .
Rafe : Yeah , but that is all circumstantial , you understand ?
Justin : It is more than enough to take to a grand jury . Roman , do nt you agree ?
Roman : I do nt , not necessarily .
Rafe : Hey , you know what ? This is my case , mine , okay ? I do nt give a damn who you are but you re not going to walk in here and tell me how to run my investigation . Am I clear ?
Hope : Hey , guys , what s going on here ?
Steve : I can dig up Bo s records from the merchant marine and prove he was never in Tahiti .
Victor : Maybe not with the merchant marine . But I happen to know he was there with hope .
Steve : So ?
Victor : So , is it so hard to believe he got the two itineraries mixed up ? You re grasping at straws trying to ease your conscience . You think that if you act the hero , Kayla is going to--
Steve : What if I m not grasping at straws ?
Victor : Well then we need to find out who wrote that letter . And where the hell my son is . [ Moans ]
Paige : JJ , you think you re going to bring down a drug lord by yourself ? Please , you have to let me help you .
JJ : No way . I m not dragging you into this .
Paige : JJ , what if something happens to you ?
JJ : Paige , nothing is going to happen to me . And I will do whatever it takes to protect you . Because I love you , Paige .
Paige : JJ--
JJ : I know that s not what you want to hear right now , but ... I know-- I know that I broke your heart . Maybe you ll never be able to forgive me , but someday I just-- I just hope that we could sit down and talk about ... I do nt know ... maybe not having you hate me ?
Paige : I do nt hate you .
JJ : So do you think that we can do that ?
Paige : Sure , maybe .
JJ : Great .
Paige : Um ... I should probably get going . Please ... be careful .
JJ : And , Paige , you got to remember . You ca nt tell anyone about Clyde .
Paige : I understand .
Ben : My fiancée was really looking forward to meeting with you , but she got stuck at work . And I really hate to be doing this to you at the last minute , but do you think it s possible to reschedule ? Thank you . Thank you so much . No . All right .
Ben : Dammit .
Chad : Aiden told me not to tell anyone , but I can trust you to keep it to yourself , yeah ?
Abigail : Of course , yeah . Chad , why do nt you remember ?
Chad : It had been a really bad night .
Abigail : Because of what happened with me ?
Chad : A lot of stuff . I did nt handle it very well . I came here , got loaded ...
Abigail : And Serena ?
Chad : She d been having a rough time , too , so ... we hit it off ... at first . Until ...
Abigail : Until what ?
Chad : She slapped me .
Abigail : And you got mad ?
Chad : Maybe . Probably . I know she left . I went after her . And then I do nt remember anything until I woke up in that hotel room with the worst hangover I have ever had in my entire life .
Abigail : Chad ...
Chad : I know it looks bad . And the worst thing is ... I ca nt even say I did nt do it for sure . Maybe my worst fear has come true . I really am a chip off the old block . Maybe I m a murderer .
Justin : I hope you can convince your partner to start doing his job . And remind him who he s working for .
Hope : Would you give us a minute ?
Eric : Yeah .
Hope : Thanks .
Rafe : Does the new D.A. Not realize that I hate the DiMera s as much as he does ? I just want justice to be served here , all right ?
Hope : I know , I know .
Rafe : I m surprised he has nt accused you of sabotaging his case because you re dating the prime suspect s defense attorney .
Roman : All right , wait , wait a minute , hang on . Now , look , I hate to say this , but I do nt think Justin s being completely unreasonable . Especially now we ve got that key .
Hope : What key ?
Rafe : The key to the gate at the DiMera mansion was found near the crime scene .
Roman : Chad is just not our main suspect , he s our only suspect .
Rafe : So far .
Roman : I m glad you re being methodical on this . It s the right thing to do . But the clock is ticking , and considering you were just reinstated .
Rafe : Do nt push my luck .
Roman : Hope , what do you think ? You think maybe it s time for you to jump back in the driver s seat here ?
Hope : Absolutely not . Absolutely not . Rafe has this covered . I have every confidence in him . Besides , I just stopped by to pick up some files .
Roman : Okay , all right , all right . If it s good with you , it s good with me . Now , I ve got things to do . I ll talk to you both later .
Rafe : Thanks .
Hope : Want me to stick around ? Pick up some of the legwork ?
Rafe : No , I know you have to pick up Ciara . I d hate to think of what she d do to you if you were late . I just want justice served here , okay ? That s it . And Justin -- he s just out to make a big splash , and I just want to make a case , okay ? I want to make a case . I want to find the killer . And I want to make it stick .
Steve : Maybe Bo has nt been working for the ISA after all . Maybe that s just what someone wants us to believe .
Victor : Someone , who ? Or did you leave your tin foil cap at home ?
Steve : This is not some paranoid conspiracy theory . Did Bo ever say -- did you ever hear it from his mouth , before he left , that he was on an ISA mission ?
Victor : No . But why would someone want us to believe that he--
Steve : I do nt know . But I think I know where I can get us some answers .
Aiden : Thank you for seeing me . I know it s risky to meet here . But it s an emergency .
Watts : What s the latest ?
JJ : There s nothing new to report .
Watts : This is dragging on a lot longer than I m comfortable with , so you need to find out who southern s boss is so we can get you out of there and shut this operation down .
JJ : I m close to getting this done . It ll be over soon .
Watts : It had better be .
JJ : Believe me , I know what s on the line .
Rafe : I just have a few more questions about the interaction that you witnessed between Chad DiMera and Serena mason at club TBD .
Paige : Oh , I already told you everything I know , detective .
Rafe : I understand . I just want to go over it again in case there were some details that we may have missed .
Eric : So , tell me , what were Rafe and Justin arguing about ? Is there any new leads or suspects besides Chad ?
Roman : I wish I could tell you more , but it s an ongoing investigation . You know the drill .
Eric : Yeah , I understand .
Roman : All right , how was Serena s service ?
Eric : Well , you know , the funeral director-- he did nt know her , so I said a few words .
Roman : Well--
Eric : Not that there was anyone there to hear . Not even her mother .
Roman : Still a nice thing to do . Eric : I just wish , you know , I could have-- could have done something . You know , while she was alive , and it counted .
Roman : Hey , she did nt exactly make it easy .
Eric : Yeah , but she deserved a shot , dad . I mean , to start over again , have things the way she always wanted to be . She was young , you know ? She was beautiful .
Roman : Yeah , I m so sorry , Eric .
Eric : There s one thing we can do for her now , and that s find the killer . And make sure that they do nt hurt anyone else .
Ben : Hello , I m calling about a shipment . Is Chad DiMera in ? You think he s in his office ? Well , can he be disturbed ? I mean , is he with someone ? You do nt know . No , no , no . Never mind . No , that s quite all right . There s no message . Thank you .
Abigail : Chad ... do you really think that you re capable of killing someone ? Well , you re not .
Chad : I lied to you . And I lied to the police .
Abigail : Okay , we both know you re capable of lying . You lie , I mean , do nt we all ? You want to know why I refuse to believe the worst in you , Chad ?
Chad : Why ?
Abigail : Because I know the sacrifice that you made to protect me from your father s greed . You let him disown you rather than take advantage of me . Even though you were-- I mean , you had to have been so angry at me .
Chad : Abby--
Abigail : No , listen . The last thing on your mind was revenge . You know what that tells me ? That tells me that you are a person of character . The way that Serena was killed-- that was senseless and that was brutal . But you , Chad ... you are not a violent person . It was nt you .
Chad : Thank you . It means a lot that you believe in me .
Abigail : It s going to be fine , Chad . The police are going to figure out that you are innocent and then this whole thing is going to be behind you , okay ? It s ... I should go .
Stefano : What is this emergency ?
Aiden : I need an advance on the fee that you promised me .
Stefano : I told you I would pay only when you and hope said I do .
Aiden : Do you know what an uphill battle this has been ? To get hope to fall in love with me-- forget about the love of her life ? Mr. DiMera , it s only been a year - and - a - half since you brought me to Salem , and I am so close .
Stefano : Close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades , and I hope we wo nt have any need for the latter .
Aiden : I am telling you , I need the money , and I need it now .
Ciara : Lauren likes Connor , and she s mad because he likes me . Like that s my fault .
Hope : Wait a minute . I thought you liked Julian .
Ciara : Mom , that was weak . I decided I can do better .
Hope : Oh , I see .
Ciara : Romance is so complicated .
Hope : Yes , it sure is . Oh , honey , excuse me . Do you think , maybe , we could sit down and just talk for a few minutes ?
Ciara : Uh - oh . This sounds serious . Did Mrs. King call you ?
Hope : No . What would Mrs. King be calling me about , Ciara ?
Ciara : Nothing .
Hope : Really ?
Ciara : Really .
Hope : Okay .
Ciara : So , what do you want to talk about ?
Hope : Well ... you know how Aiden and I have been getting closer ?
Ciara : Yeah , a lot closer . He spent the night while I was on my sleepover , did nt he ?
Hope : What would make you think that ?
Ciara : I smelled his cologne . He could use a little less , do nt you think ? Hey , you re not the only detective in this house .
Hope : Yeah , apparently not . Um ... honey , seriously , though , I need to know how you feel about me and Aiden before things get more serious . Do you like him ? You do , right ?
Ciara : Sure .
Hope : Okay . Then how would you feel if I-- if we--
Ciara : Mom , spit it out . Aiden asked you to marry him , did nt he ?
Roman : You listen to me , okay ? We will find Serena s killer . I have no doubt about that .
Eric : I just wish it never came to this . Serena , she saved grandma s life . I was so grateful to her . I just wish she would have left the way she was planning-- just one day earlier .
Roman : Hey , hey . You had no idea something like this was gon na happen .
Eric : I regret because she died thinking , dad , I just do nt think I ever appreciated what she did ... who she was . She had so much to offer .
Ben : Abigail , hey . Is everything okay ?
Abigail : Hey , I m sorry I did nt see your text earlier . I felt a little queasy after work , so I stopped at TBD to get some tea .
Ben : You okay ?
Abigail : Yeah . But , Ben , I forgot all about the wedding planner . I m so sorry . I do nt know where my head s been at lately .
Ben : It s okay . I already called her and rescheduled .
Abigail : Thank you .
Ben : Do you really think it s a good idea to be hanging out at Chad s club ?
Abigail : He owns the place , but he s hardly ever here . And even if he was , we live in the same town--
Ben : Yeah , not for long .
Abigail : What does that mean ?
Ben : The guy s a murder suspect . He ll be going to jail soon . And I think in the meantime , it s probably a good idea for you to keep your distance .
Abigail : Ben , I know how you feel about Chad , but do we really have to talk about this right now ?
Ben : Look , I know you want to think the best of everyone , okay ? Because you re the sweetest person I know . But trust me , Abigail , some people just do nt deserve the benefit of the doubt .
Rafe : So you said that you saw Serena rush out of club TBD , and then Chad stormed after her with his lip bleeding , yeah ?
Paige : Mm - hmm .
Rafe : Did you happen to hear their conversation ?
Paige : No . All I can say is that Chad seemed really angry and very drunk . Okay , looking back , yeah , I probably should have called the police , but I had no idea that things would turn out the way they did .
Rafe : Oh , no . No one did . Could you tell me anything else ?
Paige : No .
Rafe : Anything at all ?
Paige : No , I m sorry .
Rafe : That s all right . That s all right . Well , thank you . And also , I m going to be questioning some of the shop owners in case they saw the fight , so I may need to speak to you one more time just to verify the details , okay ?
Paige : Sure , whatever you need .
Rafe : Good girl . Thank you for your cooperation .
Chad : Hey .
Paige : What ?
Chad : I did nt mean to scare you .
Paige : What do you want ?
Chad : I need to talk to you .
Steve : John black . You are looking a hell of a lot better than the last time I saw you .
John : [ Laughs ]
Steve : All right . Hey , do nt worry , I m not here to poach any more body parts .
John : Yeah , good to see you again , too . Sit down .
Steve : Well , I leave the ISA , and you get roped back in .
John : Yeah , what s up with that ? I was looking forward to working with you again .
Steve : Me too .
John : So , what can I do for you ?
Steve : Well , I understand that you were the last person Bo talked to before he went undercover .
John : Yeah , I ran into Bo when I was doing some business in Europe . In fact , he gave me a letter to give to hope .
Steve : What else did he say ?
John : Just that the investigation into the DiMera s had to get a little bit bigger . And now it involved an international crime syndicate . He could nt give many details . I was nt with the agency back then .
Steve : And you have nt heard from him since ?
John : No . What , do you think something s going on ?
Hope : Yes ... he proposed .
Ciara : Where s the ring ?
Hope : It s still in the box .
Ciara : Did you say no ?
Hope : No . But I also-- I did nt say yes , either .
Ciara : Whew .
Hope : Whew ? Whew that I did nt say yes ?
Ciara : Whew that you did nt turn him down flat .
Hope : I was nt going to give him an answer about something this important without talking to my daughter first .
Ciara : You know , at first I thought Mr. Jennings was a real jerk . And chase , ugh . But they turned out cool enough .
Hope : Cool enough ?
Ciara : The important thing is , Aiden-- he makes you happy . And I really do nt want you to be sad anymore . Tell him yes , mom .
Hope : Are you sure you re really okay with this ? Because if you re having reservations at all--
Ciara : When we move in together , I want the bigger room .
Hope : [ Laughs ] I ll see what I can do , okay ?
Ciara : And of course I ll be in the wedding ?
Hope : Of course you re going to be in the wedding .
Ciara : And you ll finally let me wear those amazing earrings Sami gave me ?
Hope : Oh , my gosh . Yes , yes , yes . I suppose I will .
Ciara : So , what does the ring look like ? How many carats ?
Hope : I do nt know . I have no idea .
Ciara : You do nt know ?
Hope : No , Ciara , you do nt really care about that ... that much . Honey , the big issue is that if Aiden and I do decide to get married ... you understand that he would never take daddy s place , right ?
Ciara : I do understand , but ...
Hope : But what ?
Ciara : Sometimes I wish he could .
Hope : Come here .
Stefano : You watch your tone with me . Do you understand ? Let s remember who works for whom .
Aiden : Sorry .
Stefano : What s wrong ? You could not afford a decent engagement ring on your lawyer s salary ?
Aiden : I had to get her the very best .
Stefano : So why your sudden need for cash , huh ? Hope has not accepted your proposal yet , has she ?
Aiden : But she will . She will because I played it perfectly . Listen , she s under my thumb , all right ? I ve devoted night and day to this job .
Stefano : I m sure it was a terrible hardship , was nt it ?
Aiden : All I m asking for is a small advance on the money that you owe me . Because I ve earned it .
Stefano : I will not be satisfied until you and hope are married and she has gotten Bo Brady completely out of her system .
Aiden : What are you talking-- Bo Brady is a distant memory , all right ? I ve earned that money , and I need it , and I need it now !
Stefano : There s that temper again . Need I remind you what I know about your past , huh ?
Aiden : No .
Stefano : Well then think very carefully before you consider raising your voice to me again or demanding anything of me .
Roman : I know how difficult this has to be .
Roman : All right , well , I ve got to take this call . I m sorry .
Eric : Do you mind if I hang out here for a few more minutes ?
Roman : You take all the time you need .
Eric : Thanks , dad .
Roman : Hey ... you hang in there , okay ? Love you .
Eric : [ Sighs ] You know , God , I ve kind of been hoping you could help me make sense of all this . I know I m just a man , and your ways are nt ours . It s just that I ve been trying to keep the faith , you know ? And after all the ... terrible things that have happened to me ... my family , and now Serena . Just , why ? Why , God ? Right when she s finally starting to get her life turned around . It s just not right . It s just not right .
Chad : I saw you with detective Hernandez . What did you tell him about me ?
Paige : The truth about what happened the other night . Now please leave me alone !
Chad : Hey , whatever you think you know , you re wrong .
Paige : Do nt touch me again .
Chad : Paige ... damn it .
JJ : Paige , what s going on ?
Paige : I m so glad you picked up .
JJ : Are you all right ?
Paige : Yeah , it s just-- I have something important to tell you . Can you meet me at my dorm ?
JJ : Sure . Yeah , I ll be right there .
John : I guess maybe Bo did nt tell hope he was working for the ISA , but he sure as hell told me . Unless you do nt believe me .
Steve : Of course I believe you .
John : I do nt want you to take this the wrong way , Steve , but it seems to me you went looking to Victor for something to latch on to . Maybe you found it just because you wanted to .
Steve : Maybe I did . But I ve known Bo since he was 18 years old , and I know he would nt just up and leave his family like that . Never .
John : Well , that s just part of the life , Steve . I think you know that better than anybody . But I ll tell you this . Before Bo left to go after demira he was really driven , for the sake of his family . So I will check out this theory of yours . But I ve got to tell you , my gut says that he went off grid of his own free will .
Bo : I ll be back before you know it . Nothing s going to keep me from my two beautiful girls .
Hope : I know that . I promise I will do everything in my power to come back to you as soon as possible .
Aiden : Whatever was bothering you before , I hope it works out . Hope ... will you marry me ?
Hope : [ Cries ] [ Coughing ]
JJ : Paige ?

### Dialogue:
Adam : Ah , right on time .
David : Is Little Adam ready ?
Adam : Have a big day planned ?
David : The zoo .
Adam : Oh , the zoo . I took him -- I took him there just last week . His favorite is the miniature train .
David : Where s Little Adam ?
Adam : In the parlor . You have nt thanked me .
David : For what ?
Adam : Your long lost daughter . You could give her a train ride , maybe . Do a little bonding . Of course , it would hardly make up for Krystal having sold her .
Krystal : I thought you were leaving . Please , come on in .
Marissa : Look , I m not staying . I just came to give you something .
Tad : Whoever the Satin Slayer copy - cat is , he s got to be in that house .
Jesse : If there s a copy - cat .
Opal : Oh , you poor thing . I just thought a little kick of caffeine would take care of us .
Tad : Mom , do you mind ? We re in the middle of something .
Opal : I ve got English breakfast and some --
Tad : Ma , what is it ?
Opal : No !
Jesse : Opal , what is it ?
Opal : Ryan . Ryan -- I ve got to find Ryan . I ve got to warn him .
Kendall : Where is he ? Where s Zach ?
Ryan : Why ? What happened ? Is it Ian ?
Kendall : No . I fell asleep and Zach was gone . I ca nt find him . Oh , thank God !
Zach : What -- Ian ?
Kendall : He s fine . I was so afraid that you -- that you went to take care of Adam . You did nt , did you ?
Zach : When I do , you ll know .
Opal : Oh , this ca nt be happening . It just ca nt . It ca nt .
Tad : Ma , what did you see ?
Opal : Blood -- blood everywhere . Everywhere I look . I ca nt even open my eyes anymore .
Jesse : So , you saw Ryan covered in blood .
Opal : Blood every -- It s going to happen today . Somebody is going to die .
David : Hey , little guy . You ready to go to the zoo ?
Little Adam : No . Daddy , do nt make me .
J.R. : It s ok , buddy .
Adam : Well , Hayward , it looks like you ve got a definite change in plans .
David : We had a deal .
Adam : It s not my fault the child is afraid of you .
David : Because you keep feeding him lies .
Adam : The child has a mind of his own . And I might add , he s an excellent judge of character .
David : Little Adam . Come on , buddy . Let s just go to the zoo . We ll a great time , all right ?
Little Adam : No .
David : It s ok . No , it s ok . Listen , I m your grandfather .
Little Adam : I do nt want you to be my grandfather .
David : Little A , I love you very much .
J.R. : Will you just leave the child alone ?
Adam : You know , it s -- it s really better this way . We do nt want the poor child caught between us , confused . If you really love the boy , you ll understand the importance of that .
Marissa : I d be two states away , but I went to the cemetery last night , Babe s grave . You and David were there and I -- I heard what you said about how you had to sell one baby to take care of the other , how if you had nt you might have lost them both -- us both .
Krystal : I am so sorry .
Marissa : You pretty much said the same thing to me . I was just too angry to hear it . But I ve had some time to think . It sucks , and I m still pissed , but I played lawyer . I stepped back . I looked at it objectively . You did nt have a whole lot of options . You made the choice that you thought was best .
Krystal : If there had been any other way to keep you both -- I should have found a way . I should ve raised both my daughters , kept them forever . You must hate me .
Marissa : No , I do nt hate you . I ca nt .
Ryan : Kendall kind of freaked out when she thought you left the hospital .
Zach : She was worried about Ian .
Ryan : Yeah , I was a little worried about Adam back at his place . I thought you were going to kill him . Something happens to Ian , you re not going to let it go , are you , Zach ?
Zach : Letting go is nt that easy , is it ?
Ryan : You ve walked away from a lot in your life . You walked away from your father , from Ethan , from Kendall . I thought that s who you were . But if something happens to Ian , you re not going to walk away , are you ?
Zach : No .
Scott : Marian ?
Stuart : Lavender .
Scott : You two really write each other every day when she s gone ?
Stuart : Well , I send her pictures , and she sends me these . How are you ? The -- the valve , Ian Slater ? I -- I worried about you as much as I worry about him . I want you both to be ok .
Scott : I told myself that I was saving a life , that I was a good guy .
Stuart : You are .
Scott : No . No , a good guy would ve made sure that the valve was safe . A good guy would ve had it tested , and tested , and then tested it again . A good guy would nt have implanted it in a child .
Stuart : You tried to stop the operation .
Scott : No , but I was too late . I was so set on being a hero that I refused to see the down side .
Stuart : Uh - huh . You tried to keep a child alive .
Scott : Did I ? Or did I want to just win the competition ? I got so caught up in wanting to save a life and the company , I put a kid at risk . And Dr. Chappell , he did nt care about Chandler money . He just wanted to save people , and now he s --
Stuart : Do you believe in the valve now ?
Scott : Absolutely . I know that with more tests that we can save hundreds of lives .
Stuart : That s what you re going to be doing . Yeah .
Scott : I just want you to be proud of me .
Stuart : Oh , I ve always been proud of you , and I always will be .
Scott : I love you .
Stuart : I love you , too .
Stuart : Little Ian Slater is going to be ok .
Scott : I was thinking about J.R. You love me for breathing , but J.R. -- he tries so hard and he just wants Adam s approval . Yet Uncle Adam , he keeps coming up with these new tests , these new ways for J.R. to prove his love .
Stuart : Adam loves in his own way .
Scott : I like your way , which has got me thinking . This whole corporate thing , it s like wearing cement shoes .
Stuart : Yeah .
Scott : Let s say that you and I , we grab some quality fishing time once little Ian s ok .
Stuart : Oh , I -- I hear the trout are dancing right on the water .
Scott : It s a date .
Stuart : Oh , yay .
Scott : Hey , and maybe -- maybe you can teach me how to tie some of those little fancy lures of yours this week , huh ?
Stuart : Oh , yeah . I d -- I d like nothing better .
Scott : All right . Come on .
Tad : Come on , Jesse . Stuart swears he saw Adam tying the ribbon to the gate of the Chandler Mansion .
Jesse : Stuart swears he saw Adam touching the ribbon .
Tad : Yeah , ok . Well , then Adam makes Stuart swear that he wo nt mention it to somebody else .
Jesse : So you jump straight to Adam tying the ribbon ? That s a hell of a leap , Thaddeus .
Tad : All right . Try this . I just interviewed Adam s ex - gardener , Raul Gonzalez . Worked for him for 14 years , and the day of Dixie s murder , Adam had him cut some gardenias .
Jesse : Hmm . The flower of choice .
Tad : And after Dixie died , he fires him . No explanation .
Jesse : Circumstantial , man . Cut flowers , ribbons , it s -- it s just not enough . Not enough .
Tad : Why do you refuse to see the truth ? Adam killed Dixie .
Jesse : Tad , you re thinking with your grief . Listen to me . Until there is more hard evidence , I ve got to believe that the right man is behind bars .
Tad : You know Adam and you know what he s capable of . It s all right there . The least you could do for me is haul him in for questioning . Hell , I want him arrested for Dixie s murder .
Jesse : All right , Thaddeus . If I brought Adam Chandler in based on flowers and ribbons , do you really think he s going to fall to his knees and confess ?
Tad : Look , somebody in that house killed Dixie . It s got to be Adam .
Jesse : Yeah , again I believe you re relying on the most unreliable source .
Tad : Which is exactly what Adam is counting on . He s destroyed too many lives . He s got to be stopped .
Jesse : Hold on . Hubbard . Ugh , yeah , ok . I ll be right there . Yeah . Slater causing trouble at the hospital .
Tad : Ian ? Is he any worse ?
Jesse : Well , he s not any better . If that boy dies , Zach Slater s going to blow . I need to be there to contain him . I -- I ll have to talk with you later , ok ?
Krystal : It means a lot to me , you not hating me .
Marissa : Well , I did for about 24 hours , and I m still nowhere near ready to forgive what you did , but I -- I just wanted to make some sort of peace .
Krystal : You have every right to be angry . It is a lot to take in .
Marissa : You ve had 26 years of living with it . I ve had hours . In all those years , my mom and dad trotting me off to Sunday school , there was this big , fat lie .
Krystal : Listen . Lydia and Roy were just trying to protect you . They were doing what they thought was right .
Marissa : And now they re dead , and I do nt get to ask them why they lied to me . I do nt get to be angry at them .
Krystal : Please , do nt blame them .
Marissa : I m trying not to . Now , I keep -- I keep telling myself that when you sold me you gave me a gift , the two best parents that I could ever ask for . They made me independent and strong . They taught me to be honorable , work my ass off . Tuition check .
Krystal : I thought you could nt get it back .
Marissa : I explained the situation to the dean . He made an exception and refunded the money .
Krystal : But you love law school .
Marissa : Yeah , and I was paying my way before you showed up . I ll do it again .
Krystal : I just want to help you .
Marissa : I do nt need your help . I do nt need you in my life at all -- no phone calls , no e - mails , no birthday cards .
David : You ca nt mean that .
Marissa : I do nt want to see either of you ever again .
J.R. : Was that fun for you ticking off Hayward like that ?
Adam : Oh , not as much fun as the monkeys in the zoo .
Colby : Little A , look who s here . Want to go hang at the park , rock the jungle gym ?
Little Adam : No , I want to stay with Daddy .
Colby : And miss double - scooped ice cream cones ? We have a big movie later , too .
Little Adam : No .
J.R. : How about you watch that new Disney video with Emma . Would you like that ? There s plenty of ice cream in the freezer . Double scoops for everyone .
Colby : Does that sound like fun ? Yeah . A double scoop wo nt distract me . I want to know what s going on .
J.R. : Did you really think you could dangle Little Adam in front of Hayward , yank him away , and expect him not to come down on you ?
Adam : Well , let him try . Let him try . It s what you want . I m keeping Hayward away from Little Adam .
J.R. : By screwing with his head ? That s fine , Dad , but do nt do it to my son .
Adam : What would you want me to do ? Just stand back and let Hayward take over Little Adam ? You see , that s where we re different . You would sit , and wait , and then react , and hope that life works out . I do nt wait . I make life happen .
J.R. : You might not be able to make any more life happen if Hayward tears you apart .
Adam : I know what I m doing .
J.R. : Or you might have a death wish . You re straight in Hayward s path , and I do nt blame him .
Adam : You d like that , would nt you ? Me dead .
J.R. : Half the town is gunning for you , Dad . You know , if I were you , I d lay low , get the hell out of Pine Valley .
Adam : So you could take over Chandler .
J.R : You know , I ve run it before , Dad .
Adam : I ve , uh , got a lot of people who dislike me and would like to have me dead . So -- I ve decided that in the event of my demise , I m going to leave Chandler Enterprises to Scott .
J.R. : You ca nt do that .
Adam : I know it s always been in the -- in our interest to keep the Chandler bloodline , but you ve been consistently disappointing to me .
J.R. : Is this one of your mind games ?
Adam : No , no . It s not a mind game . Upon my death , control of Chandler Enterprises will be turned over to Scott , so it would be in your best interest to keep me alive as long as possible .
Scott : Uncle Adam , I do nt want Chandler , not like this .
Adam : Hmm . You ll get used to it .
Scott : I did nt know about this . I swear to you .
J.R. : My entire life my father groomed me to take over Chandler . You know what that means ? He bullied me , he lied to me , he manipulated me , he pushed me . I should ve known that he would just pull it out from under me . Do you know what he said to me ? That I do nt make life happen . Maybe it s about time I did .
Scott : J.R.
J.R. : I m too much of a coward . You can ask my father . Besides , somebody will probably get rid of him for me anyway .
Scott : That s not funny .
J.R. : Oh , come on , Scotty . Lighten up . This calls for a celebration . It was nt so long ago you could nt run up a backstreet film company . Now you re going to be heading up a multinational conglomerate .
Scott : We ll run it together .
J.R. : Oh , and have old Adam roll over in his grave ? It s better this way .
Scott : You do nt need the drink .
J.R : If you re going to be such a downer , you can leave .
Scott : No matter what happens with this company , your son will need you .
Opal : Oh -- oh thank goodness I found you . I found you . You -- you were covered in blood .
Ryan : Wh -- what ? Opal , no . I m fine , what are you --
Opal : There s blood everywhere . The houses are bleeding . The people are bleeding . I -- I saw Annie . She was covered in blood . Then I saw her at your place and she --
Ryan : Opal , Opal . I checked . I checked . She was nt at my place . She was nt there , ok ?
Opal : I know , I know . Adam -- Aidan insisted that it was a vision , too , but -- but I m not so sure . I mean , she -- she just looked so alive .
Ryan : Hold on a second , hold on a second . Aidan was there ?
Opal : Oh , I told him I would nt say anything , but it s been weighing on me .
Ryan : Ok , when ? When was he there ?
Opal : He was there the night of Adam s party . He came by to pick up a few of Emma s things to send them to Annie . You know , Mama missing her baby and all , my heart went out to her , but -- oh . Now there s so much pain and blood coming up . I m scared .
Ryan : Ok , Opal , I need you to calm down . Just -- just do nt leave . Stay here , please . Jesse , excuse me . I need you to arrest Aidan .
Jesse : Ryan , my plate s kind of full right now .
Ryan : I understand . He was -- he was at my penthouse , ok ? Breaking and entering again . Opal saw him , and I also need you to check and see if Annie is still in The Maldives , ok ? Opal thinks she saw her , too .
Jesse : No , Opal has seen my great - great - great Uncle Lee and he s been dead for 50 years .
Ryan : I m serious , Jesse . I ve got a bad feeling about this .
Marissa : What s that ?
David : I m sure it s just another electrical storm heading our way .
Krystal : Marissa , please , please do nt leave like this . You just ca nt walk out .
Marissa : My parents always protected me . Now I have to protect myself , and everything in me is telling me to just run as far away and as fast as I can from this place .
Krystal : If you would just reconsider , ok ? Just -- just give this some time .
David : Let it go . You should catch the first bus out of here and do nt look back .
Krystal : What are you saying , David ?
David : You were right . I would become obsessed with you just like I did with Babe , with Little Adam , and I scared Babe away , and Little A. So what the hell are you waiting for ? Go .
Krystal : David , you practically threw her out . She s our daughter .
David : That s why she had to leave .
Krystal : You are not making any sense .
David : You should leave , too .
Krystal : Leave Pine Valley ?
David : Mm - hmm .
Krystal : I -- I ca nt . Are you kidding ? I -- Jenny ? I -- I m your wife .
David : I do nt want you here . I do nt want you anywhere around me right now .
Krystal : Because you ca nt forgive me . I ve cost you too much . Little Adam , a chance to have a family , and now Marissa .
David : You did nt make me lose all that . Adam Chandler did .
Kendall : Ian ca nt die . There s so much I want to tell him and I want to show him . If he does --
Zach : You ll know what to do . If Ian dies and that cop out there puts me in custody , it ll be up to you , unless you change your mind .
Kendall : No . No , there s no going back . If Ian dies , I will make Adam Chandler die for what he did to our son .
David : Adam found out about your little secret and used it to blackmail you . You took Little Adam from us . And now Marissa is gone .
Krystal : If I had handled things differently ...
David : It s always the same with you , is nt it ? You just wo nt trust me enough .
Krystal : I -- I thought you understood .
David : I understood the choice of a desperate young mother . But I cried for the children that we would never have and you said nothing . I mourn the death of two daughters , and you said nothing . You say you love me , but I ca nt help but wonder what other secrets are there ? What other lies are going to come trippingly off your tongue ?
Krystal : There are no more secrets . And I swear I will never lie to you again , I swear it .
David : Ah , come on , Krystal . Are you kidding me ? The damage is already done . I ve lost my grandson and my daughter . And Adam gloats . He grinds it in deeper every single day , finding new ways to humiliate me . And you gave him that power , Krystal . You gave him that power , because you thought it was easier to lie to me than to trust me with the truth .
David : I have to go .
Krystal : Oh , no , David , please . Please do nt go -- please . Do nt go like this . I just lost Marissa . I can not lose you , too . Please just tell me what I can do .
David : Why do nt you make yourself a nice glass of warm milk ? I have to go change .
Ryan : You got any word on Annie in The Maldives ?
Jesse : Ryan , it s going to take a couple of hours , all right ? Relax . If Annie is missing , I think I would know about it . Can I deal with this situation now , please ?
Jesse : Look , I want you to head back to the station and I ll take it from here , ok ? I ll handle this .
Kendall : When I was carrying him , I swear my heart beat in time with his . It s the same way right now . I can feel him , Zach . I can feel him fighting to come back to us . I can feel him trying . There were so many times when I was nt there for him . Well , I m here for him now . And if our son dies , so will Adam .
Adam : Stuart ? Ah , I m glad I caught you . Um , I just told Scott that he s going to take over Chandler Enterprises when I m dead .
Stuart : What about -- what about J.R. ?
Adam : I ve given my son more chances than any rational man should . And I m afraid he just does nt have the steel to keep Chandler strong .
Stuart : But Scott does nt know anything about big business and --
Adam : Well , he ll have to adjust some of his ideas of -- of Pollyanna and Go Green and Save Mankind mentality .
Stuart : So you want him to be like steel , like you .
Adam : Well , I m a success . And I think Scott will be a success , too . I think he has an instinct for the business . He ll just need a little shaping .
Stuart : I do nt want anybody shaping my boy . I like the shape he is .
Adam : Stuart , do nt worry . I m not going to tarnish the glow of his halo . Chances are I do nt have that much time . But I ve drawn up the papers , and I want you to witness them and keep it in the family .
Stuart : Well , um , we ll just see , ok ?
Adam : Scott came home for a reason . Maybe this is it . Maybe heading up Chandler Enterprises is his destiny .
J.R. : Have you found the smoking gun ? Or should I say ribbon ? Poor Mom , ended up dead just like everyone that Dad hates .
Tad : He hates my guts . I m still alive .
J.R. : You call this living ?
Tad : What are you doing here , J.R. ?
J.R. : Is this a game or a way to pass time ? Or are you serious about nailing my father for killing my mother ?
Tad : That s an interview with your ex - gardener , Gonzales . The day of your mother s death , he was ordered to cut some gardenias by your father .
J.R. : Wow .
Tad : After she died , he was fired .
J.R. : This is so not big . So you re telling me you ve got nothing . So my father can continue to get away with murder .
Tad : If your father killed Dixie , he ll pay for it . I m going to see to it .
J.R. : Really ? You re not just going to forgive him again ? He had Kathy for how long ? Lied to your face , laughed behind your back , and yet you forgave him again . Why did nt you just kill that son of a bitch when you had the chance ? Save us all a lot of grief ?
Tad : You been drinking ?
J.R. : I had one , two -- maybe three . I was celebrating .
Tad : What happened ?
J.R. : My father revised his will . He just could nt wait to tell me that he handed Chandler off to Scott . Apparently I m not enough -- not man enough to make the decisions , not Chandler enough to go for the throat . Yeah , and just to make things worse , he -- he handed it off to my cousin , a guy that does nt know anything about business , just to watch me squirm .
Tad : J.R. , do nt do this . You do nt need Chandler Enterprises to be your own man .
J.R. : I do nt know who that is anymore , Tad . I ve been trying for years to prove myself to my father . In fact , I do nt know who I am unless I have a hoop to jump through .
Tad : Well , you can start by getting back on the wagon .
J.R. : It s funny . My father can kill my mother , but that was an accident because he was trying to kill my wife .
J.R. : You see ? That was a sign that my father s guilty .
Opal : The heavens are raining grief down upon us .
Tad : I m still searching for evidence .
J.R. : Oh , do nt go soft on me , Tad . My father took my mother , my wife , my future . Now my son , he s going to be next . Somebody s got to stop him . Ok , somebody s got to stop him , Tad .
Opal : Oh ! Sweet cheese and crackers , save me . Save me .
Tad : Mom , take it easy . It s just a storm . J.R. ? J.R. !
Opal : You ve got to find that boy .
David : How s Ian ?
Jake : Well , uh , stable until about an hour ago . He s got so many bleeds from so many surgeries , the ecmo ca nt compensate .
David : Protamine ?
Jake : No , we re beyond that . We ve discontinued the ecmo , and we ve started the transfusions . The problem is we ca nt keep up with all his blood loss .
David : Damn it . Adam Chandler s bottomless greed strikes again . What was I thinking ? Putting my trust in anything with that man s name attached ?
Jake : Well , we were all on the same page . We thought that the valve would work .
David : Yeah , well , all our good thoughts were nt enough , now , were they ? I have to tell Ian s parents he s going to die .
Krystal : Damn it .
Adam : Oh , it s just you .
David : Ian s condition has deteriorated to such a point where surgery is no longer an option .
Kendall : I thought you said you would save him .
Jake : Look , we re going to try to make him as comfortable --
Kendall : No , I do nt want him comfortable . I want him alive and -- and running around and playing with his brother . There s -- there s nothing that you can do ?
Zach : How long ?
David : Based on these ? I m sorry , but Ian will most likely not make it until morning .
Kendall : No . No .
Tad : J.R. s got one thing on his mind . I pray to God I can stop him .
Opal : Who are you calling ?
Tad : Adam . I hate the son of a bitch , but the least I owe him is a warning .
Krystal : Do nt -- do nt -- do nt answer that .
Adam : Could be important .
Krystal : I ve got something to say to you , and you are going to listen .
Adam : Oh , I m all ears .
Krystal : Damn it .
Adam : That s dramatic .
Krystal : Do nt -- do nt you laugh at me .
Adam : I feel nothing for you but pity .
Krystal : Why , Adam ? How could you do it ?
Adam : You re the one who sold her daughter . I just used the information constructively .
Krystal : You bastard . You ruined my life . Marissa is gone . I m not fit to raise Jenny . My marriage is over .
Adam : Ah , you can find another husband just like that . You know , by my account you have had three in the past year . You re very good at it .
Krystal : I ve got nothing left because of you . So I ve got nothing left to lose .
Kendall : No , this -- this ca nt be happening . This ca nt be . Ian s always been strong enough to fight back . His hand is still warm , Zach . Maybe David was wrong .
Zach : Every beat of that machine is his heartbeat . As long as we have that , we have hope .
Kendall : What s happening ? No , no , no . No -- no , no , no ! No , it s too soon . Please help him . Please do something ! Please help him !
Nurse : I m sorry .
Kendall : No ! No , no , no , no , no , no . Please help him , no !
Jesse : Zach , come on .
Zach : He killed my boy !
Jesse : Zach , do nt -- do nt make me do this , ok ? Please -- I know you re angry . You just lost your boy , but killing Adam is not going to bring him back . You hear me ? Listen to me , listen to me .

Natalie : Ooh , let s get some champagne .
Paul : Now ?
Natalie : Absolutely .
Paul : All right . You re not trying to brush me off , are you ?
Natalie : No . No . Why do you ask ?
Paul : I do nt know . I mean , you seem a little wound up right now . Is something or somebody else on your mind ?
Natalie : The only thing on my mind is you .
Paul : No --
Kelly : No , no , no , no . Is he going to find out that there s a baby missing ?
Paul : I got to go .
Kelly : No , no , you have to answer me . Did you get Ace from someone in Pine Valley ?
Kevin : Kelly , I m at Llanfair . Call me when you get this , ok ?
Jessica : Kevin , are you sure mom went to bed ?
Kevin : Yeah , I m sure . I saw her .
Jessica : Well , she s not up there . I ca nt find her anywhere .
Todd : Hey . Where s Viki ?
Jessica : Why ? What s the matter ?
Todd : Blair s coming home with Starr and Jack pretty soon . I need to talk to her .
Jessica : Well , she s not here . We do nt know where mom is .
Todd : Well , where would she have gone ?
Jessica : Maybe somewhere to think . She just -- she got her results from her angiogram back today .
Kevin : It s not good .
Jessica : Hello . Oh , my God . Ok , we re on our way . Kevin , mom was at the hospital with Ben . She s had a coronary .
John : McBain .
Michael : Hey , it s me .
John : What s up , Michael ?
Michael : I think somebody s stalking me , John .
John : What makes you say that ?
Michael : Well , there were some hang - ups earlier , and the front window got broken while I was asleep .
John : So ?
Michael : So , it could be Dr. Long trying to scare me off . Is there anything you can do ?
John : Unfortunately , but without any proof , it s just a broken window and a couple of hang - ups .
Michael : Dr. Long could be outside , prowling around and waiting to make his move .
John : Michael , relax , all right ? Dr. Long ca nt bother you tonight . I got him here in my office . We ll have a long talk about all of this .
Kelly : I do nt know what you think you heard .
David : I know you re in a jam . I heard you say that you wished you never even had a brother . I heard you say you wished he were dead .
Kelly : Oh . Yeah , I --
David : Kelly , if you wish your own brother were dead , there s got to be a damned good reason for it .
Kelly : I was just upset .
David : Kelly , if you tell me what the problem is , I ll take care of Paul for you myself .
Dr. Long : You asked me to come down here and answer your questions , right ? I have been extremely cooperative .
John : Mm - hmm .
Dr. Long : Those documents prove the organs being harvested are all completely legitimate .
John : You think I ve never seen manufactured documents before ?
Dr. Long : They are not manufactured .
John : Bottom line is you come clean right now or I m coming down to your office tomorrow with all the necessary paperwork . I m going to make such a stink you wo nt believe it . And if we find one organ that was sold or moved illegally out the door --
Dr. Long : No , I am well aware of the penalty for that kind of --
John : You know what s going to happen ?
Dr. Long : I am well aware of the penalty for that kind of thing . Honest to God , this is so insulting .
John : Yes , it is , but I think it s going to get worse . But for now , you re free to go . Think about tomorrow . See you around noon ?
Dr. Long : Fine . My attorney and I look forward to it .
Nora : Still trying to say goodbye ?
John : Just trying to do the best I can , right ?
Nora : Sometimes that s the way to do it . Having a drink , saying goodbye to a photograph -- that s not how you get over someone .
John : Nora , if you ve got better idea --
Nora : I do . I sure do .
Michael : Oh .
Jen : Hey .
Michael : Thank God you made it home .
Marcie : Why would nt we ?
Michael : No reason . You guys did nt see anybody outside , did you ?
Marcie : No . Why ? I mean , what happened ?
Jen : How did the window break ?
Michael : The wind kicked something up and must have broke it .
Jen : You know , there s branches scraping it all the time . I m actually surprised it has nt happened already .
Marcie : Really ? Are you sure you did nt see somebody out there ?
Michael : No . I mean , yes -- yes , I m sure that I did nt see anybody -- how was the club ?
Jen : I ll let Marcie tell you about that one . I m going to go to bed .
Marcie : Night .
Jen : Good night .
Michael : Good night , Jen .
Marcie : All right . Come on . I want to know what really happened .
Michael : Well , the window really did just break itself out of the blue . I had this -- this is so stupid . I had this dream that Dr. Long got in here while I was sleeping .
Marcie : Why did nt you call me ?
Michael : I do nt know . I called John .
Marcie : Ok .
Michael : Turns out Dr. Long was in his office .
Marcie : You re kidding me .
Michael : Yeah . The problem is Long is just going to come up with some other phony excuse . John ca nt push too hard , not without any real solid evidence .
Marcie : That s it , Michael . I m sick and tired of living like this , ok ?
Michael : Whoa , wait , whoa , what are you doing ?
Marcie : Well , if Dr. Long is in that office L.P.D. with John right now , then that s the perfect opportunity for me to get the evidence that he needs to put him away .
Michael : Marcie , I do nt --
Marcie : No , no , come on . Come on , all right ? I m sick of living like this , never knowing when that man is going to come after us next .
Michael : Marcie , no ! No way !
Marcie : No , listen -- I want my life back , Michael , and my boyfriend .
Michael : Marcie , you ca nt --
Marcie : See you later .
Michael : You ca nt do this by yourself !
Marcie : Bye .
Michael : Dam it ! Oh
Paul : No , no , just leave it .
Natalie : I ca nt . I mean that may be about my mother . Hello .
John : Hey . I m thinking you were wrong about me .
Natalie : Really ? How s that ?
John : I m thinking I can move on . It s time , and I want to .
Natalie : John , do you know what you re saying ?
John : Yes . Can I see you ? Where are you ?
Natalie : Um -- I m -- I m in bed . Can you wait till morning ?
John : Yeah , sure . Get some sleep . All right , I ll talk to you tomorrow .
Natalie : Hey , thank you . I m really glad you called .
John : Me , too .
Paul : So it s going to be the three of us after all , huh ?
Natalie : I did nt think it would be , and I m sorry . I should go .
Paul : No , Natalie . Look , keep the room . All right , you re in no condition to drive .
Natalie : I guess I should give this back to you . It s really nice .
Paul : Yeah , you know what ? I will take it . And I ve got it here whenever you want it again .
Natalie : Good night , Paul .
Paul : Good night .
Michael : Ok , all right . You got to -- come on ! You can do this . You have to do this . You have to do this for Marcie .
Kevin : Hey , there , mom . You gave us quite a scare .
Viki : I should move in here , the time I spend .
Todd : No . You re going to be all right . They re working on something for you .
Viki : I was visiting Ben . I -- I was leaving , and got such a pain , and I thought , oh , boy , that s it , I m dying . And that was -- that was all .
Jessica : No , no , mom . You re ok .
Dorian : You fought back . Good for you .
Viki : Hi , Dorian .
Dorian : You stay strong . I m going to check with your doctors on your condition .
Viki : Ok .
Kevin : She was pulling for you . Obviously , we all were .
Viki : I know , even before you knew .
Todd : Do nt do that again , ok ?
Viki : I heard you , you know . I heard you , my children , Dorian . You were praying , and I -- I followed your voices . You all brought me back .
John : I want to thank you for -- for talking to me earlier .
Nora : Oh , giving you advice . Yeah , I m really good at giving it . I m not very good at taking it .
John : Who is ?
John : You ok ?
Nora : Oh , sure . Let me see -- aside from getting stood up by Daniel Colson .
John : Colson stood you up ?
Nora : Maybe he was having second thoughts and he really just remembered how interested he was in Lindsay Rappaport .
Daniel : Not a chance in hell .
Dr. Long : You re a terrible liar . You know that ? You re just -- you re just looking for something you can use against me .
Marcie : You re right . I m looking for the heart that you stole .
Dr. Long : Oh , that s a very serious charge .
Marcie : I know that it was harvested tonight from a patient upstairs , I know that you have it , I know that you re planning to sell it , but guess what -- it s not going to work , because this time the cops -- they re going to be waiting for you .
Dr. Long : Oh , too bad they re not here now .
Dorian : Oh , Dr. Gardner . Mrs. Davidson -- I mean , what can be done for her ?
Dr. Gardner : Well , the medication should regulate her heartbeat .
Dorian : You want to be honest with me ? You re running out of things you can do , are nt you ?
Dr. Gardner : Well , there is one thing , but it is a long shot , and it s very risky .
Jen : So , Rex is nt here . I think you d better go .
Lindsay : That s not the only reason I came over here , you know ? I also happen to really miss you .
Jen : Whatever .
Lindsay : You do nt miss me just a little bit ?
Jen : When you can stop letting guys like Rex jerk you around , then I ll be here . But until then , do nt make me miss you more than I already do .
Lindsay : You do nt have to miss me . I m right here .
Jen : Please just go !
Lindsay : You know that friend that you said that I need ? I wish it could be you .
Daniel : Look , I m sorry . It s not my fault I stood you up . It s his .
Nora : Oh .
Daniel : It s this file on Dr. Long . I could nt put it down .
Nora : Oh , all right , you win . I ve blown off a few dates doing that myself .
Daniel : Look , is there any way I can make it up to you , tomorrow night , maybe ?
Nora : Oh , I m sorry . I ll be sleeping with someone else tomorrow night .
Daniel : Really ?
Nora : Yes .
Daniel : Oh , that sounds like a lot of fun .
Nora : It will be -- in a tent , on a camping trip -- Fire Scouts camping trip with Matthew .
Daniel : Is Bo going with you ?
Nora : No . Why ?
Daniel : No reason .
Nora : Fine .
John : Can we talk about Dr. Long just for a moment ?
Daniel : John , there s nothing in that file to arrest him for .
John : How did I know you were going to say that to me ?
Daniel : Look , all I see is a suspect with no probable cause . The judge will ask me how long I ve been out of law school .
Nora : What about his pilot -- Paul Cramer ? Can you turn him ?
John : Do nt worry . He ll screw up . They always do .
Jessica : Hey . Any word from Kelly yet ?
Kevin : No , no . Have you been able to contact Natalie ?
Jessica : I can go and try her , and I just get her voicemail .
Jen : Hello .
John : Hi , it s -- it s John McBain . I m sorry for calling so late . Is my brother there ?
Jen : He and Marcie went to bed a little while ago . Should I wake him up ?
John : No , no . Let them sleep . I just wanted to make sure they were home safely . Thanks .
Michael : Dr. Long . You have nt seen Marcie , have you ?
Dr. Long : Well , no , of course not . Why would she be here this time of night ?
Michael : Well . Looks like somebody did nt make it . What do you got there ? A heart ? A very expensive heart , maybe ? So , who s the lucky recipient ?
David : What happened to her ?
Paul : She took some sleeping pills and she s passed out .
David : And you wanted to make sure she never woke up again .
Paul : Wait a minute . What the hell are you talking about ? I would never hurt Kelly .
David : You hurt Kelly every day . I ve seen it !
Paul : Do nt you push me , all right ? I was trying to put the pillow underneath her head !
David : You know what ? People have colds longer than she s had you for a brother .
Paul : What the hell do you know about family , huh ?
David : You know what I know ? I know that you got your sister so scared she has to sedate herself .
Paul : What ? Get your hands off me , all right ? I did nt force her to take those pills , and she s totally out of her mind !
David : She s out of her mind because of you ! She is your sister !
Paul : Well , you know what ? You can go to hell , all right ? Oh --
David : Come on , you little -- get up , I want to hit you some more ! Cut the act , Paul . Paul ? Get up . Please ?

Brooke : Is that all you re worried about ?

Ridge : Oh , come on , not this again .
Brooke : Ridge , when it happens , I want it to be something special . And it will be . I just think that you re still trying to escape .
Ridge : Why ? Because of what I said , where I do nt want to think about anything ?
Brooke : No . No , it has nothing to do with that . It s just not the right time .

Brooke : I know , I know . I know it sounds crazy . I m sorry . I just -- I just do nt think we re ready .
Ridge : Well , why do nt you let me be the judge of that then ?
Brooke : Because , Ridge , it s not just you . I m not ready either .
Bridget : Okay . So , what are we reading tonight ? More sorcerers ?

Steffy : That princess .
Bridget : A princess ? What happened , Thomas ? Did you get outvoted ?

Bridget : You know what ? I m just about to read the kids a story .
Kids : Mojo ! Mojo !
Massimo : Oh , it s so good to see you . Look at you in all your jammies . So what are you doing ?
Thomas : We re reading about pirates .
Massimo : Ah , so my timing is just about perfect . Huh ? You loved all those big ships and everything , right ? With all the sails , huh ?
Thomas : Yeah .
Phoebe : Yeah . It was a big ship , and --
Thomas : It s a real good book . It s got lots of pictures of boats in it .
Massimo : Oh , and I know how you like the boats . They re wonderful , are nt they ?
Steffy : And a beautiful princess .
Thomas : And pirates .
Massimo : Oh , ho , ho , ho ! Pirates and princesses . That sounds like a terrific story .
Phoebe : Could you read it with us ?
Massimo : Well , if I m not interfering .
Bridget : You re not . Guys , why do nt you sit down , I ll be in in a sec , okay ? We both will .
Massimo : Well , it s obvious the kids are glad to have you back .
Bridget : Well , I m not staying . I told you , I m just doing Ridge a favor until he gets back .

Thomas : No . They re stuck in the cabin .
Massimo : Who s stuck in the cabin ?
Thomas : Dad and Brooke .
Massimo : Ah -- oh , oh , Thomas . I almost forgot . I came by to give you these .
Thomas : More coins ?
Massimo : That s right . I found them in a shop in Portofino . There s one for each of you . Here s one for you . Here s one for you . And there s one for you . Huh ?

Thomas : Cool . Thanks , Mojo .
Steffy : Thank you .
Phoebe : Thank you .
Massimo : Okay , you re welcome .
Thomas : Thanks .
Massimo : Is this true ? Ridge is spending the night with Brooke ?
Brooke : Ridge , look , I m not being a prude .
Ridge : Well , not in that outfit you re not .
Brooke : I know it seems like I m sending you mixed signals .
Ridge : No , no . Absolutely not . You re being perfectly clear here .
Brooke : I just want to be honest .
Ridge : You re not ready .
Brooke : We have other responsibilities with our families and our children .
Ridge : And you do nt think we re being responsible ?
Brooke : I just do nt want us to rush into something without thinking . It s never been about sex with us . I mean , it goes way beyond that . And , right now , things are just a little more complicated .
Ridge : They do nt have to be .
Brooke : Well , complicated does nt mean wrong or bad . It just means that we ca nt let our emotions get away from us .
Ridge : Is this is the new Logan I ve been hearing so much about ?
Brooke : I promised myself and my children that I would never let my heart run my life again .
Ridge : Mm , good for you . Good for you . I think I liked the old Logan better .
Brooke : Why you little -- [ laughter ] oops .
Ridge : Okay . Good night , Logan . Good night .
Brooke : You re leaving ?
Ridge : Well , I really -- I really would nt want to compromise your principles at this point . I would not want to put them in jeopardy .
Brooke : Well , wait a minute . I just said that we could nt make love . I did nt say that you had to go . And there are other things that we could do .
Massimo : I ca nt believe it . Ridge and Brooke are stuck at the cabin ?
Bridget : They got snowed in .
Massimo : Oh , come on . What were they doing there in the first place ? As if I should even ask !
Bridget : They were skiing .
Massimo : Oh , is that what you call it ?
Bridget : This is all ridiculous . She ca nt control the weather , Massimo .
Massimo : Of course not . Spending the night is just a bonus . A woman as committed as your mother certainly ca nt wait until dark .
Bridget : She s not out to seduce him .
Massimo : Oh , please . She s probably already succeeded .
Bridget : No , I talked to her .
Massimo : Oh ? So you were concerned ?
Bridget : No . Look , they went up to the cabin to go skiing . They got snowed in . That s all .
Massimo : Come on !
Bridget : It was an accident .
Massimo : No . What accident ? What are you talking about accident ? This is the way she operates , Bridget -- plausible deniability . No matter how dubious her motives are , she is never at fault .
Bridget : You re wrong .
Massimo : No , Bridget . This is wrong . Your mother luring Ridge up to the cabin , using passion and sex , while you are here watching the children . What about her own child , huh ? What about Hope ? See , Brooke does nt mind leaving her own child at home while she s on the top of some mountain romping around like some sex - crazed bunny ! I think that speaks volumes about her priorities , do nt you ? Just as you re here watching the children speaks volumes about you .
Bridget : I m watching the kids because Ridge asked me to .
Massimo : He could have called Catherine .
Bridget : This is their first night without him since Taylor died . He just thought they might be more comfortable with me .
Massimo : Yes , because he s more comfortable knowing they re with you .
Bridget : I guess .
Massimo : He trusts you , Bridget .
Bridget : Yes .
Massimo : Which is a hell of a lot more than we can say for your mother .
Bridget : Listen , you think you can do better than my mother ? Fine . Why do nt you -- why do nt you introduce him to someone else ? Why do nt you set him up on a date ? I do nt care . Just leave me the hell out of it .
Massimo : There are very few people like you , Bridget .
Bridget : I d thank you for the compliment , Massimo , if it were nt so incredibly creepy .
Massimo : Tell me something . What is so wrong that I want the best for my son ? For my grandchildren ? You re a woman of integrity and honesty , okay ? You could bring to this family things your mother never could , such as dignity and respect .
Bridget : Unfortunately , for you , I have too much dignity and respect to even consider what you re suggesting .
Massimo : What am I suggesting here ? I m only reacting to what I see . The way the children interact with you . The way Ridge relies on you . Your connection to the four of them .
Bridget : Do nt .
Massimo : Look , Bridget , I m not trying to pressure you , okay ? And I do not want you to be uncomfortable . I just want you to think about this . Before you pass on anything , just think -- okay -- what a difference you could make in their lives .
Ridge : Talk about sending mixed messages here . Now what other things could we possibly do , huh ? Other things ?
Brooke : How about a massage to work out some of that sexual tension , hmm ?
Ridge : Oh , now that s intriguing . But I do nt know . I do nt want to rush anything . I think maybe I should think about it some .
Brooke : Well , it s a limited , one - time offer .
Ridge : Well , then it would be highly irresponsible of me to turn it down , would nt it ? Logan --
Brooke : You know something ? You really should nt tease me , cause I was being serious .
Ridge : Oh , who s teasing who here ?
Brooke : Oh , that s it . Roll over .
Ridge : Why ?
Brooke : Because I want to wipe that smirk right off of your face .
Ridge : What smirk ? Do nt play games with me , Logan .
Brooke : I m not playing games with you . Cause these feelings that we share , these desires -- they re really very significant . But if we re going to do this , I just want to wait and make it right .
Ridge : And what would we be waiting for ?
Brooke : I do nt know -- our wedding night ?
Massimo : You must know how much Ridge cares about you .
Bridget : As a sister . God ! Why do I have to keep reminding you of that ? You want to keep pushing this , fine , Massimo . But I m not gon na buy it .
Massimo : I am simply stating the facts as I see it . You could have an impact on this family .
Bridget : An impact ?
Massimo : Uh - huh .
Bridget : What you re suggesting could blow my family apart .
Massimo : I m sorry . Look , I am sorry . I m upsetting you .
Bridget : You know what ? You really are upsetting me . I would like you to leave .
Massimo : Bridget , please , listen to me ? Look at me . Try to understand , okay ? I would nt even contemplate such a thing if I did nt think so highly of you . See , when I see you with Ridge and the children , I know -- I just know how right it could be . No , no , no , no . Okay . I ll go .
Bridget : Thank you .
Massimo : Please tell Thomas and the girls I said good night .
Bridget : I will .
Massimo : They re my grandchildren , Bridget . They ve been through so much . I just want the best for them . And I know , deep down , you do , too .
Bridget : Oh , god .
Ridge : Our wedding night ?
Brooke : It was a joke , not an ultimatum .
Ridge : I do nt know . I think a part of you means it .
Brooke : Well , ideally , yes . I would like to wait until we ve made that kind of commitment .
Ridge : Why ? Because then you ll know that I was ready ?
Brooke : I always know when you re ready , Ridge . But if we wait and we give ourselves to each other mind , body , and soul , then we know we ve done it right . But if we do nt , then we do nt have anything to regret .
Ridge : You think we ll actually get to that point , huh ?
Brooke : Well , we ve done it before .
Ridge : You re not answering my question .
Brooke : All right . Let s just say if we do , you have a lot to look forward to .
Ridge : Oh , really ?
Brooke : We re gon na make love like we ve never done before .
Ridge : Keep talkin .
Brooke : I m going to lock you up in the bridal suite , and I m not gon na let you out for a week .
Ridge : A week ? Boy , that s a long time . What if I get bored ?
Brooke : Oh , no . No , you ll never get bored . Your satisfaction is guaranteed . And I will fulfill you in every possible way .
Massimo : When I see you with ridge and the children , I know -- I just know how right it could be .
Ridge : Oh , well . Well , look who s home . Girls : Bridget !
Bridget : Hello , you guys . Oh ! I m so sorry I m late .
Ridge : It s quite all right . It s quite all right . All right , guys , let s go get washed up , then go help grandpa in the kitchen . He s cooking up a wonderful dinner .
Steffy : I ll race you to the kitchen !
Bridget : I got slammed with an emergency appendectomy right before my shift ended .
Ridge : Oh , no -- how d it go ?
Bridget : Well , complete success .
Ridge : That s my little miracle worker .
Bridget : Well , I would nt go that far .
Ridge : If you knew what you d done for us -- I never thought I d be happy again , and I m very happy . So are the kids .
Bridget : I could nt have asked for anything more incredible than this .
Ridge : Yeah , I guess I am quite a catch , are nt I ?
Bridget : Um , yeah . Yeah . I was talking about our life .
Ridge : Oh , yeah , yeah , yeah . That s incredible , too .
Bridget : Unbelievable is more like it .
Ridge : That s true . How would I have known the woman that I d been searching for this whole time is right next to me .
Bridget : I love you .
Ridge : I love you , too , princess . [ Massimo clears throat ] [ Massimo speaks in Italian ]
Ridge : That would be dinner s ready . Come on .
Bridget : I think so . Wait , wait , wait , wait , wait . I want to tell you something .
Ridge : I hope it s not that you re not hungry .
Bridget : No .
Ridge : He just cooked a mountain of pasta .
Bridget : No , I m starving . I ve been looking forward to this all day . That is what I wanted to tell you . You know that I love what I do . You know my job is very important to me . And sometimes it does take up a lot of my time . But I want you to know something . No matter what happens at the hospital , no matter how many lives I save , the best part of my day is coming home to you and the kids and the love we share . [ Bridget gasps ]
Bridget : Oh , god . Oh , no .

<s>### Instruction:
You are a helpful, respectful and honest assistant. Your task is to summarize the following dialogue. Your answer should be based on the provided dialogue only.
### Dialogue:
J.R. : Well , that s why I like you , Statton . You know how to back a winner . So what will it be ? You going to help me lead the charge with the rest of the board members ? The old , uh , used - up Chandler out ? The new fresh , motivated Chandler in .
Statton : You make the push to replace your old man , and we ll be behind you .
J.R. : I knew I could count on you . I ll see you at the vote on Thursday .
Babe : Man , are you working it . When you said you were going to take over Chandler --
J.R. : You did nt think I d follow through .
Babe : Well , your follow - through is excellent , Mr. Chandler . It s your methods that scare the pants off of me .
J.R. : Hmm , my God , that s a nice image . Tell me more .
Babe : I m serious , J.R. I m warning you .
J.R. : Not to become my father or get under his thumb ? It s not going to happen this time . This time I m going to be the only Adam Chandler left standing .
Adam : You re late . Is your retainer too large ? Do I have to whittle it down to get your attention ?
Barry : I was doing your bidding , as usual .
Adam : Did you get rid of the damn car ?
Barry : It s been shredded and recycled .
Adam : Ok , no file , no paperwork . That car , my daughter s car , has to be obliterated from the face of the earth .
Barry : The car involved in the accident was crushed , broken into pieces , and sent to six different countries . It s how these things are done .
Adam : Yeah --
Barry : Oh , and , of course , all traces of blood were chemically removed beforehand .
Adam : Just keep your voice down . Too many people know too much already .
Barry : I just want you assured every precaution was taken .
Adam : Fire bomb it , blast it into space -- just make sure that care does nt come back to haunt my daughter .
Angie : Hiding your art from your mother ? What happened to , Mommy , look what I made ?
Cassandra : Mom , I was 5 .
Angie : Uh , Mom , do you think my perspective is off ? You were nt 5 then .
Cassandra : Well , maybe I m not ready to talk about this one yet . It s not what you want to talk about anyway , is it ?
Angie : You re right . It s not .
Cassandra : Well , I know what you re going to ask , so I ll tell you everything .
Frankie : Dad ?
Jesse : Doctor --
Frankie : What do you --
Jesse : What was that oath ? First , do no harm .
Jesse : So what do you call these injuries , lacerations , hematoma ?
Frankie : I call it my business and not yours .
Jesse : You know what ? A woman - hating pimp gets beat down . The perp matches your description . That s my business , Frankie .
Frankie : Hey , hey , he came to our house , was in your wife s face , and jumped on my sister . He got a warning .
Jesse : Fletcher was not after your sister .
Frankie : Oh , what , is he just dogging her every move ?
Jesse : It was one of my men from the force .
Frankie : Wait -- you put a tail on Cass ?
Jesse : He was supposed to keep an eye on her .
Frankie : Yeah , well --
Jesse : Make sure she was safe .
Frankie : Yeah , well , he scared the hell out of her .
Jesse : And he got his ass handed to him . I screwed up . I screwed up bad , all right ? And then you come along , and you screw up even more !
Frankie : You know what ? It does nt matter . Fletcher thought he was untouchable , and now he knows better .
Jesse : You risked your job . You risked your freedom . You risked your license for no reason , Frankie .
Frankie : You want a reason ? Her name is Randi , and guess what , I do nt have any regrets . I got none .
Angie : Turning pager off . I m all yours .
Cassandra : You do nt have to do that , Mom . It s not going to take that long . Ok , um , well , first of all , I have nt picked a major yet . I know it s not going to be pre - med , though . Um , I like hanging out with Colby , but I know , I do nt have to do it 24/7 . And , yes , Dré and I are getting closer , but nothing like that is happening , so do nt worry . And if you never want to ask me again , that s cool , too . You know , we could kind of get beyond that .
Angie : That s , um -- thank you for telling me .
Cassandra : Cool , so turn your pager back on . There s no more to tell .
Angie : Well , honey , there is , uh , more that I need to tell you .
Cassandra : Ok , sorry , go ahead .
Angie : It s , um , it s important that you know how much we love you and want you to be safe .
Cassandra : Who s we ? What are you trying to say ?
Angie : I m saying that you are very , very special to Jesse . You know , I think about that poem that he left for you before the wedding , that jewelry , and -- who was that poet again ?
Cassandra : Her name s Anais Nin , but what s going on ?
Angie : You -- you do nt have to be scared of that pimp , Fletcher . He -- he s -- he was nt the one that was following you .
Cassandra : How do you know that ?
Angie : And the man that you saw meant you no harm . Honey , he was a cop , and he just got his orders confused .
Cassandra : Orders , from who ? Jesse had me followed ?
Colby : Did you follow me here ?
Krystal : Would you be mad if I said yes ?
Colby : I like it here . The water makes the same sound over and over .
Krystal : White noise . For me , it s rain on a tin roof . Pull the covers up , listen in the dark -- makes you feel like you re in a cocoon , all safe .
Colby : Sounds perfect .
Krystal : Rum -- ahem .
Colby : Are you going to narc me out to my dad or Tad , J.R. ?
Krystal : I d rather make a deal with you .
Colby : Blackmail . Go for it . You were a Chandler once .
Krystal : Talk to me . Tell me why a smart , pretty girl is drinking alone at the beach .
Colby : I m not alone anymore . We can share .
Krystal : Colby .
Colby : I wake up wanting to just go back to sleep . You know how it feels when you run on -- on loose sand ?
Krystal : It might help to talk .
Colby : It s nothing . Just boys and summer and college -- I ll -- I ll be back to normal soon .
Krystal : Colby , I know what happened on the way back from the lodge . Your daddy told me everything about how Richie Novak died . Oh , honey .
J.R. : Has Colby said anything to you ? Did she smell like booze ?
Babe : No , and no , but --
J.R. : Never mind . Moving on .
Babe : Such a loving brother .
J.R. : And son . Do nt forget that one .
Babe : That s why you re getting board votes in line , to toss Adam as chairman .
J.R. : The vote is on Thursday . And as far as that call is concerned , every board member is behind yours truly . Chandler Enterprise has nt bounced back since the Wall Street Herald outed my father as deranged .
Babe : So convenient about that cover story , huh ?
J.R. : What , did you think I planted it ?
Babe : Do I want to know ?
J.R. : That s up to you .
Babe : Yeah , I want to know .
J.R. : Yeah , I planted it . Ok , here it comes .
Babe : Thank you for being honest .
J.R. : That s it ?
Babe : What were you thinking ? I hate it , J.R. I hate it when you get sucked in , and you become all vicious and sneaky .
J.R. : And I thought you were behind me .
Babe : Yeah , if you did nt go all nasty and twisted .
J.R. : Yeah , I planted it . But it had nothing to do with work . I was nt even thinking about that then . It was about my dad throwing my mom s name around , hiding my 6-year - old sister . The board thing was just a bonus .
Babe : I think that it s a bunch of excuses . I want to be behind you , J.R. But -- but it s about Colby and Little Adam , too . What happens if 10 or 20 years , you start battling with him just like Adam battles with you ?
J.R. : No , no . This is the war to end all wars . There s no more back and forth , no more tug of war . I m taking over Chandler for good . There s going to be plenty of room for Little Adam , Colby , the entire family .
Babe : Except for your father ?
J.R. : Exactly . My first order of business is to take over Fusion and put you in charge .
Statton : Adam , Barry . I do nt have long .
Barry : Golf or squash ?
Statton : Golf .
Adam : Could we cut to the chase , gentlemen ? My son is approaching board members , asking them to rally around him for a vote . You spoke with him , I assume ?
Statton : Today , in fact .
Adam : Well . Well , what did you say when he asked for your support ?
Statton : I told him that he has my vote and every other vote on the board behind him .
Adam : Exactly as I requested . Well done .
Waiter : Do you need a chair , drink ?
Adam : No , no , he s not staying . It s tee time . You and the rest of the board , I m pleased . You obviously know how to back a winner .
Statton : That you are , Adam . That you are . Barry .
Barry : You always get such a kick out of double dealing , even against your own son .
Adam : When a son thinks he has nothing left to learn from his father , he s going to get what he deserves .
Jesse : So you beat Fletcher up for this girl . What -- what is -- what is she to you ? What -- what s going -- she s got your nose wide open . How deep does it go ? Yall doing the duece ?
Frankie : Wow , really ? Wow , you re going to come at me like that , really ?
Jesse : Just trying to figure out the relationship , trying to understand the dynamic . Help me out .
Frankie : Bottom line , you have your justice , and I have mine . We ll see which one keeps that pimp away from Randi .
Jesse : Listen , do I need to take you down to the station ? Because either here or there , you will talk to me .
Frankie : Oh , well , look , Chief , do your job . Cuff me . Take me down for the perp walk -- whatever . Otherwise , you re just talking , and I ai nt really trying to hear it .
Cassandra : Is my phone tapped ? Have you been listening in ?
Angie : Would we have heard something you did nt want us to know ?
Cassandra : No . God , I told you . When did you stop trusting me ?
Angie : Of course , I trust you .
Cassandra : No , you do nt , because you re questioning me right now , are nt you ? It s , like , you work for Jesse now ?
Angie : I know this may be upsetting , honey .
Cassandra : My own stepfather had a tail on me like I m some kind of criminal .
Angie : It was a mistake . This was about your safety .
Cassandra : Papel is history . Unless there s something else you re not telling me .
Angie : No , I m not keeping anything from you . Now , can you say the same because something is nt right , and you ca nt lie to me because I know you too well .
Cassandra : Mom , no , you ca nt do that . Stop .
Angie : Stop it . This is what s in your head ? Why , Cassandra ?
Cassandra : Did you tell Jesse he crossed the line , or did you just say , Baby , it s ok . You know , I m so glad you re alive -- like you always do ?
Frankie : Look around , Dad . This is my office , where I work , and you come in here huffing and puffing like you re the man in charge .
Jesse : Oh , I thought your work was swooping in and stomping pimps .
Frankie : When Fletcher stops beating up on women , then I ll go back to my day job , ok ?
Jesse : Well , tell me this , Dr. Day Job . Is Randi any safer now that you ve taught Fletcher a lesson ? You think he s going to slink away under a rock , leave you alone ? You know what ? Maybe now he ll know better than to mess with you , so maybe he ll just take it out on her !
Frankie : I hear you .
Jesse : Can you look at me when you say that , please ?
Frankie : I hear you -- loud and clear . Now I have to go back and kill him .
Cassandra : So you gave Jesse a free pass to invade my privacy ?
Angie : I love you , and I respect you . You show me the same respect , and watch your tone .
Cassandra : Look , I came to this town , and you already had your little family back . You and Jesse and Frankie , like Daddy never existed . You asked me to give Jesse a chance and to trust him , and I did . So why is it ok he does nt trust me ?
Angie : All this noise , and I still see a secret hiding behind your eyes .
Cassandra : Do nt talk to me like I m a kid .
Angie : I ve got news for you . Baby , you will always be my little girl , and I will always protect you . Always .
Cassandra : Then protect me from your policeman husband .
Angie : Right now this is about what you re hiding . Tell me , sweetheart . Whatever it is , you can tell me .
Cassandra : I want to go back to Paris and live with Daddy .
Intern : Great call , Dr. Hubbard . Oncology is all over it . But first , Ortho is taking a patient to surgery . You want to observe ?
Frankie : Uh , you go ahead . Have a blast . Knock yourself out .
Jesse : You see that ? Call that hero worship . Now wo nt you go run tell Skippy what it is you really want to do -- play thug life and kill a pimp . See how that goes over . Oh , healer of man .
Frankie : A man who treats a woman like that , slaps her around , beats her up , he ai nt a man at all .
Krystal : You feel better ?
Colby : Yeah . No , nothing s changed except now you know what I am .
Krystal : Colby , I know you . I know you down to your soul . And your eyes and your -- your voice and your hands , they -- they kept me sane . And they brought Jenny into this world . And nothing , and I -- I mean nothing could stop me from loving you .
Colby : Richie Novak s dead , and I keep acting like I m all brave and it will be fine , but I m not . And it wo nt -- we ca nt take it back or undo it . Did you know Daddy got rid of my car ?
Krystal : Figured as much .
Colby : Did you figure why ? Like , maybe it was because there was evidence all over it .
Colby : Blood .
Colby : Human blood .
Krystal : Colby , you did nt mean to .
Colby : We did nt even stop . We did nt try to find out what it was . It was only after we heard the news that Richie Novak was murdered we even put it together .
Krystal : Oh , listen to me . Murder means intent , and you did not intend to hurt anybody . You did nt hit Richie Novak on purpose .
Colby : I did nt hit him .
Krystal : Ok , all right , if that s the way you want it to be , then I -- then I understand .
Colby : No , no , you do nt get it . I mean , I was nt driving . I was too loaded .
Krystal : Cassandra ?
Colby : No . She was too busy holding my hair while I puked .
Krystal : Then who ?
Colby : Dré and Ren had come up to the lodge , brought some beer for me , Corrina , and Cass . Ren and Corrina left early . Long ugly story -- also , all my fault . So Dré said he d drive me and Cass back to P.V. and then we hit something . They wanted to go back , but I was so sick and smelly and whined to go home . I did nt see if what we hit was alive or dead -- did nt call 911 . We just fled the scene . Pete Cortlandt tested the blood , kept our secret . I watch TV . He s probably an accessory after the fact now . Krystal , it really feels like murder , and it s on all of us .
Adam : My son thinks he has the entire board in his back pocket . But , in fact , it s in my back pocket .
Barry : And you ll ambush him without warning .
Adam : Did he give me any warning when he smeared my sanity across the media ?
Stuart : Oh , Adam . I -- I just delivered a landscape for the lobby .
Barry : Well , I ll , uh , make my goodbyes . Adam , speak with you later . Stuart , always a pleasure .
Stuart : Bye - bye . Bye - bye , Barry .
Adam : Have a seat , Stuart . Have a soda , water ?
Stuart : You only call Barry in when you re up to some kind of dirty work . What kind of dirty dealing are you doing , Adam ?
J.R. : Currently , the company s information technology is being contracted to one of my dad s buddies from when Chandler was founded . Now , we re six months behind the I.T. curve at all times which means we have to augment with subcontractors , and my father s just not going to change it .
Babe : What happens if Chandler brings our I.T. in house ?
J.R. : Well , we save 200 K.
Babe : Well , that s something , but for a multimillion - dollar company --
J.R. : A month . 200 k a month .
Babe : And how many departments have you audited ?
J.R. : Well , five so far . If we restructure those , that would save us 14 million a year .
Babe : And bank it , dividends ?
J.R. : Well , we divert the -- most of it into the company , and the rest we would convert into , I do nt know , a few thousand perma - temps .
Babe : Full - time workers with no benefits .
J.R. : Full - time employees with full benefits . I mean , there s a reason why Chandler has such a high employee turnover rate . It s because we re not competitive .
Babe : And if there s one thing you are deep down in your bones , it s that you re competitive .
J.R. : I know . So , am I still turning into my father ?
Babe : Well , planting that story about Adam s mental breakdown royally stinks , but seeing everything here and everything that you re trying to do , I have to admit I m impressed . And what I want to do --
J.R. : It s ok .
Babe : Oh , God , J.R.
J.R. : It s all right , I m here .
Woman : Sorry , Mr. Chandler . They re replacing the chandelier in the lobby , flipped the wrong breaker .
J.R. : Yeah , uh , Gina , can you do me a favor , shut the doors , hold all my phone calls ? Hey , come here .
Babe : No , it s fine , really , ok ? It s just --
Babe : Please , J.R. , ok ? Just let me --
J.R. : Be terrified ? No , I m not going to let you . Richie s dead . He ca nt hurt you anymore .
Babe : I know that , at least -- at least my brain does .
J.R. : Ah , it just bothers me that sicko still has you shivering . You know , if he was nt dead , I d kill him myself .
Babe : Stop , J.R. Do nt say that . I ca nt handle thinking about you landing in jail . I need you too much .
Stuart : I saw Jesse on the grounds at home the other day .
Adam : Ah , well , he s turning out to be just about as big a pain as Derek Frye ever was .
Stuart : You told Jesse that -- that the car was stolen before anybody had a chance to drive it .
Adam : The insurance will cover the , uh , replacement soon enough .
Stuart : But Colby drove the car . I saw her with my own eyes .
Adam : No , Stuart , you did nt .
Colby : I know what you think . We should tell , turn ourselves in , take our punishment .
Krystal : I ll tell you just what I told Jesse . I do nt think anybody should have to pay for Richie s death . That man was all kinds of twisted and who knows what kind of damage he would have caused next .
Colby : Really ?
Krystal : I do nt give a damn about him . But you , sweetheart , the thought of you and all those other kids , with this hanging over your heads --
Colby : It wo nt go away .
Krystal : Honey , I will hold your hand and not let go if you want to talk to Jesse and explain to him that it was an accident . You re scared , just like anybody would be . Jesse is a good and decent smart man . He ll understand .
Colby : What about everyone else ? The papers and bloggers are -- are already looking for dirt on Dré s dad . It would be a huge scandal , trash his run for Senate , and anything Jesse does , it ll screw him up . They ll say he pulled strings for his stepdaughter . And if he does nt go easy on her --
Krystal : That is not going to happen .
Colby : And me , the tabloids could cover a Chandler greatest hits . They d call me and J.R. a pair of drunks who think they re above the law . Chandler Enterprises would crash even harder , the company my dad built from scratch .
Krystal : Chandler Enterprises is not the point . You remember when Adam thought that J.R. was kidnapped ? He gave up everything , and he would do the same thing for you , no doubt about that .
Colby : We babysat for Emma Lavery , Richie s niece . Annie was trying not to cry about her murdered brother , and Cass and I just sat there with our secret , the worst people on the planet . Or I m the worst because I m the one who keeps saying it does nt matter when I know it does .
Krystal : Do you and the others have some sort of a blood pact , no one tells ?
Colby : Daddy s way will protect us . Or make it worse . I do nt even know anymore . God , it makes my head hurt .
Krystal : That or the rum .
Colby : Just tell me what I should do .
Krystal : My offer still stands . I will hold your hand if you want to talk to Jesse . If you do nt want to tell anyone --
Colby : Make you keep the secret , too ? Live with it over your head ?
Krystal : For you . Anything you need , honey .
Angie : Wait a minute . Let s back up here . You went from that conversation to moving across the ocean ?
Cassandra : Why should nt I go back to Paris ? When I tell my real father something , he believes me . He does nt label me a suspect . Daddy will buy me a plane ticket , and I ll be out of here .
Angie : No one suspects you of anything .
Cassandra : Jesse already asked us if we saw anything on the way back from the lodge on the road where Richie Novak was killed . I said no . And , clearly , he decided that I was lying --
Angie : Or he thought that maybe you saw something you were afraid to tell . Sweetheart , witnesses withhold information for all sorts of reasons , but you have to know , Jesse and I are here to protect you and Frankie , no matter how old you are . That will never change .
Frankie : What s the matter , Dad ? Do nt you want me following your footsteps ?
Jesse : What are you talking about ? When did I ever commit premeditated homicide ? That s what you re talking about . You know , murdering this vacant fool , it ai nt worth it !
Frankie : You know what ? I did nt have stories about bears or dogs . I had stories about my father , the hero . Mom gave me all the appropriate details and everything about how my dad -- how you saved Jenny from a bad man , how you died doing the right thing .
Jesse : Yeah , well , your dad was an idiot teenager at the time . He did nt know any better . You re a grown man , Franklin . Act like one .
Frankie : I did my time in Iraq . I saw bullets , suicide bombers , grenade launchers , I ai nt got to prove my manhood .
Jesse : Fair enough , fair enough , all right ? But at least prove you re a man with some kind of sense when it comes to this mess you re in with this girl . Frankie , did you ever see hand - to - hand over there in the war ? When you re this close to a guy that wants to stick a knife in your gut and go all the way to your throat ?
Frankie : Fletcher s not going to get that close .
Jesse : Drive - bys are pretty effective , too , my son . Anytime , anywhere , never even see it coming .
Frankie : Let me tell you something , Dad . I m not going to run away , and I m not going to hide . It ai nt my style , never has been and never will be .
Jesse : One , I did nt run out on you . Two , I m here with you right now trying to help your clumsy ass think straight !
Frankie : You see this right here ? It means I ve been thinking straight for a while now . I got rounds to do . We done ? Yeah , we re done .
Angie : You are not going to make this about me choosing between you and Jesse . Now , I m holding my hand out to you , and you are slapping it away . Is that what you really want to do ?
Cassandra : I know you love me . But can you say you believe in me ?
Angie : With all my heart .
Cassandra : We did nt see anything the night Richie Novak was killed . If you trust me , if you believe in me , we can just leave it there , but if you ca nt trust me , then just tell me , and I will call Daddy for that ticket .
Colby : I made promises to people .
Krystal : They ll understand .
Colby : I ve been so bossy lately , Krystal , acting just like my dad , like nothing gets to me . I mean , really , I do nt even sleep anymore .
Krystal : You know , Adam only knows one way to -- huh -- keep you from getting into trouble and that s to make it all go away . But , if you want another way to deal with this , we ll find it together .
Colby : Everything J.R. and Daddy have done -- now I ve done so much worse .
Stuart : God , I can see right inside your brain , Adam . You re doing this because you love Colby . But that s not all of it . You re helping her , and you expect her to owe you , and you like that .
Adam : Do nt be absurd .
Stuart : No , no , she s going to have to do everything that you tell her to do . And that s not good . That s not a good thing but she s practically a grown woman .
Adam : Yes , who will be criminally charged as an adult .
Stuart : You re scaring me , Adam .
Adam : How do you think I feel ? Colby is in danger , Stuart . That young woman s my last chance .
Stuart : To do what ? To -- to be the one child who s not going to run away from you ?
Colby : You hate Daddy -- now that I m worse than he is .
Krystal : That is not true . You are not just like your daddy , and I do nt hate him . God knows , I wish I could , sometimes . The man has a lot of bad habits . One of them is thinking he can control the universe and that s just not the way it works .
Colby : Daddy can keep it quiet . I know he can .
Krystal : You know or you hope ?
Colby : Hope just sounds so wrong . I hope I m not an accessory to murder . I do nt deserve to hope for anything anymore .
Babe : So , do you want to come to Fusion with me from now on ? You can sit beside me at my desk and wait for my sanity to return ?
J.R. : Wow , that s the best offer I ve had all day .
Babe : Well , I do nt think anybody would notice because Kendall , Annie , and Greenlee are all so obsessed in their own dramas .
J.R. : Yeah . That place does nt deserve you . You know , no one would blame you if you walked , start up your own cosmetics empire .
Babe : Well , I think I ve babysat Fusion way too long to bolt now . I mean , they may not give me the credit but I know . I love that place . I mean , shares or not , I feel like Fusion is mine , too .
J.R. : Mm - hmm . It s a nice feeling . But that s not ownership .
Babe : Thanks , J.R. I had no idea .
J.R. : Look , I know what you said . Once I get Chandler , I m going after Fusion . It has everything that you need . And because I ve given you diamonds , and I ve taken you on trips , I want to give you what you really deserve -- a company , title , power . You ve earned it , Babe . And I want to help you get it all .
Jesse : Hey .
Jesse : So , did you explain to Cassandra ?
Angie : Hmm . Did you talk to Frankie ?
Colby : You ca nt tell anyone . Not Tad or Angie or Jesse , J.R. , Babe , no one . I made a promise . I need you to promise , too .
Krystal : I gave my word to your daddy , and I give it to you , too .
Babe : You re him .
J.R. : Who ?
Babe : The man that you were meant to be .
J.R. : Does that mean that you re with me ?
Babe : About Chandler ? Yes . Fusion -- Kendall and Greenlee love that place , and I m not ready to take it from them .
J.R. : Well , what if I take it and I cram it under your door like a love letter ?
Babe : Then I would owe you forever . No , if -- if I take Fusion , and that is a huge if , I just -- I do nt want you to give it to me in a Valentine . And besides , you ve already given me a love letter . No , you did nt say I told you so about Richie , and you never said that it was my fault after I was kidnapped .
J.R. : Because it was nt your fault . Nothing about that night was anyone s fault .
Adam : I always enjoy your morality tales , Stuart . Um , but it occurs to me that we have nt had a family portrait since Colby returned . Could I commission one ?
Stuart : I m not going to let you change the subject .
Adam : And I m not going to let you tell me how to love my children .
Stuart : Adam , Colby is a good girl . She s just -- she s a little lost right now . So , help her to do what s right , even if it s not what you would do . Ok ?
Adam : I m going to do whatever it ll take to help Colby . If that makes her stronger and wiser and , yes , even more like me , so be it .
Colby : Hi .
Cassandra : It s bad .
Colby : I know .
Cassandra : My stepfather had a tail on me .
Colby : Krystal knows . My dad told her .
Cassandra : That s how your dad helps us ?
Colby : What do you want me to say , that it -- it ll be fine ? Ok , it ll be fine .
Cassandra : You do nt sound right .
Colby : How should I sound ?
Cassandra : Just be -- just be you .
Colby : I am .
Cassandra : No . Look , you re the one who s focused and knows what to do next , ok ? Just stop freaking me out .
Colby : Ok . We need to do some damage control , calm down Angie and Jesse . We can trust Krystal . Do nt worry . We ll get through this .

Kristen : Okay . Okay !
Brady : You said okay .
Kristen : I ll marry you . I will . Mmm . Wait . Oh .
Brady : Hey . Mmm . Mmm , I m so glad you said--
Kristen : Wait , wait , wait .
Brady : What , what , what ?
Kristen : What changed your mind ?
Nicole : God . I mean , if Eric s gon na continue to stick his holier - than - thou neck out for that menace to society , inviting him to live under our roof like some long lost friend ... well , there s really nothing I can do about it . But someone s got ta do God s work . It might as well be me .
Hope : Whoo ! What is with the heat ? I never thought I d say that , but it s like an oven in here .
Eric : It was nt like this when I left this morning . Let me check the thermostat .
Hope : Okay .
Vargas : Radiator s alive and kicking for sure .
Eric : Yeah , it s over 100 degrees on the thermostat . Let me check and see if I can cut the heat off in the hallway .
Hope : Sounds good .
Vargas : Can I ask you a question , detective ?
Hope : Sure . What you have in mind ?
Vargas : I wonder if you can recommend some kind of counseling that might be available for me . You know , now that I m on the outside .
Hope : Yeah . Sure . I could look into it .
Vargas : Just I think it might be helpful , you know ? I mean , I ca nt imagine anyone spending time locked up and , uh , not wanting to talk about it .
Nick : That s the first time since we got married . Feel different to you ?
Gabi : Feels better .
Nick : Yeah ?
Abigail : Mom , are you going somewhere ?
Jennifer : Yeah , uh , Smith Island .
Abigail : By yourself ?
Jennifer : Mm - hmm . I just need to get away for a couple of days .
Abigail : From Daniel ?
Jennifer : You know what , sweetie , I wish that there was something we could do to make this right , but obviously Daniel has decided that we are too much work . All right , and given everything that has happened , I ca nt say that he s wrong .
Daniel : I ca nt . I ca nt leave it like this , Jenn . I mean , maybe if each of us just talk and -- and I listen ... [ Sighs ] We could-- okay , what time is it ? All right , there s time . There s still time before my flight . I just -- I got ta make this happen . I got ta make it right .
Nancy : Chloe , what are you doing ?
Chloe : Seeing if there s a seat on the next flight to San Francisco .
Nancy : No , no . Chloe , you have overplayed your hand with Daniel more than once , and not succeeded . Your luck is going to run out sooner or later . Hang up the phone !
Chloe : Middle seat on the 10 : 00 P.M. Flight .
Nancy : You are not going to be on that flight .
Chloe : Would you chill out , Mom ?
Nancy : No ! You need to chill out . Unless you wanna drive Daniel back into Jennifer s needy , clingy arms .
Chloe : Of course I do nt . I want her out of his life . I want that dreary loser out of all of our lives for good .
Kristen : No , no , no .
Brady : I - I--
Kristen : No . It does nt matter . Never mind . Never mind cause it does nt matter why you changed your mind . It only matters that you did change your mind . And I m so happy to marry you . I m thrilled to marry you . Really .
Brady : I want you to .
Kristen : I m excited to marry you ! There s just one thing though . It was just ...
Brady : What ?
Kristen : Kinda sudden . Was nt it ? I mean , the way you did this whole 180 thing .
Brady : Well , I--
Kristen : Because you were so concerned -- you were so concerned about John and Marlena and how they would feel ...
Brady : I was .
Kristen : About us getting engaged .
Brady : I was concerned .
Kristen : And so I just have one question . If you have any kind of reservations about this--
Brady : Kris -- Kris -- Kristen , I gotta -- I got ta talk . Sweetie , let me talk .
Kristen : I m sorry . Go ahead . Say something . I have no reservations whatsoever .
Kristen : You do nt .
Brady : No , because it feels so right . Everything about this feels right -- it feels right in my heart and I--
Kristen : Oh , Brady .
Brady : And I love you . And I m looking at you -- look at you . I ve never seen you look this happy .
Kristen : I m kinda happy .
Brady : You re really happy , are nt you ?
Kristen : I m really happy , yeah .
Brady : I love you .
Nancy : If you want Jennifer to disappear then you ca nt push things .
Chloe : You re right .
Nancy : She admits it .
Chloe : So I m gon na think about it .
Nancy : Oh , how refreshing . My daughter s actually gon na think about it instead of barging in and screwing up her life for the nine millionth time .
Chloe : Thanks for the ego boost , ma .
Nancy : Get your ego out of this , missy . It s not about egos . It s about strategizing . If you want Daniel back , you ve got to strategize .
Chloe : Fine , okay , strategize . I get it .
Nancy : Where are you going ?
Chloe : To get Parker . We re gon na go on a walk . I m gon na figure out a way for him , his daddy , and me to be a family again .
Abigail : Mom , why are you so angry with Daniel ?
Chloe : This is nt what it looks like .
Jennifer : You talked to Chloe . She told you about our conversation and you still do nt get why I was so upset ? You know what , sweetie ? I - I appreciate your concern , I do , and that you wanna help , but this is not a conversation I wanna have right now .
Abigail : Okay , fine . I understand . Is there anything that I can do ?
Jennifer : No . No . I - I m good . It s just it s all me right now and I need to just step back and I need to just put my mind on other things .
Abigail : Well , what if I go with you ? I mean , we do nt even have to talk , I ll just be there .
Jennifer : No , no , because I do nt want you to put your life on hold . I m gon na be gone a couple days , really .
Abigail : Are you sure , Mom ?
Jennifer : Yes , I am positive .
Abigail : What if you called Daniel ? Maybe just one last time--
Jennifer : Okay , let me -- we have talked this through . We really have . And honestly , the last thing that I want today is to hear from Daniel Jonas .
Daniel : No . No , no , I m not gon na call her . I m just gonna -- I m just gon na show up and I m gon na tell her-- I m gon na tell her that I love her . And then I ll just take it from there ? Yes , yes . I m gon na just wing it .
John : Hey , it s your old man . Oh , come on , kid . Call me back . I really need to talk to you . We can work this out . I know we can .
Kristen : I found the finest bottle of sparkling cider in the whole wide world . Do you wanna do the honors ?
Brady : Mm , ah , I would love to , I would love to . Um , can we keep it on ice for a little while ?
Kristen : Are you kidding ?
Brady : There s something I ve got ta do .
Kristen : You are aware that you just proposed to me , right ?
Brady : I am very , very aware of that , but ...
Kristen : What ?
Brady : Trust me . I m not having second thoughts . There s just something I got ta do , and it s extremely important to me .
Kristen : Mm - hmm .
Brady : All right ?
Kristen : Okay . Well , I guess we have the rest of our lives to celebrate , right ?
Brady : Oh , darn right we do .
Kristen : Okay .
Brady : I love you . I ll be back soon .
Kristen : You better .
Brady : I will be .
Kristen : This is really happening . [ Slight laugh ] I got ta share this news with somebody .
Hope : I m impressed , Vargas . And I m glad you re able to see this as an opportunity to turn your life around .
Vargas : Because it is .
Eric : I could nt get the heat turned down , unfortunately . So someone s gon na come and fix it , but in the meantime I do know a place that we can go and have lunch .
Hope : Let s go .
Gabi : [ Laughs ] I feel so lucky .
Nick : Me too . And I promise you this is just the beginning . I m gon na make every moment of our lives perfect .
Gabi : Well , you re off to a very good start .
Nick : So listen .
Gabi : Mm - hmm .
Nick : Maggie offered for you to move in with me at the mansion . You know , because I have to keep living with a family member until my parole is over . So I was thinking we could take her up on the offer and then when Arianna Grace is born we could look into getting a place of our own .
Gabi : Well , you ve given this a lot of thought , I see .
Nick : Yes , I have , because I think about our future a lot .
Gabi : Mm , okay .
Nick : What do you say ?
Gabi : Um ... I say I think it s a great idea . [ Giggles ]
Nick : No , no , no , do nt .
Gabi : I have to .
Nick : Do nt get it .
Gabi : It s probably Caroline .
Nick : No . No , no , no , no .
Gabi : It s Caroline . Shh . Hello ? Hi . Yes , I can do that . Mm - hmm . No problem . Okay . Bye . Okay , well , she wants me to go downstairs and cover for her because she has therapy , okay ? You do nt mind , right ?
Nick : What s a few hours ? We re married now . We have the rest of our lives to spend together .
Nicole : Hi -- oh , hi . It s you .
Nancy : Hi , Nicole .
Nicole : Yes , is , uh -- is Chloe here ?
Nancy : No , she s not . She s gone out .
Nicole : Oh , great , I ve got plenty of time to kill .
Nancy : Uh , I did not invite you in .
Nicole : I m so sorry . That was so rude . Oh , wait , you re just a house guest here . And , uh , wearing out your welcome , I m assuming .
Nancy : Get out , Nicole .
Nicole : No , no , no . You see , you ca nt kick me out of Daniel s place .
Nancy : What do you want ? Why are you here ?
Nicole : To make sure Chloe knows her place .
Daniel : Hey , is your mom here ? I need to talk to her . It s important .
Abigail : No , you re too late . She s already gone .
Daniel : Go -- what do you mean gone ?
Abigail : She s gone . She went up to Smith Island to be alone .
Chloe : Oh , is that a ticket to the ferry on Smith Island ? Uh , you know the quickest way to the dock is in that direction past the Brady pub .
Jennifer : Oh , I appreciate it , Chloe . Having grown up here , I never would have known that .
Chloe : Hey , I just do nt want you to miss the boat . And I m not speaking metaphorically .
Jennifer : Thank you for clarifying .
Chloe : What I mean is I would nt want anything to ruin your trip .
Hope : Hey . You okay ?
Vargas : Yeah . Yeah , I just , uh -- I have nt been in a public place like this in a long time . I think it s gon na take a little getting used to .
Hope : Well , you just take your time . Relax . Excuse me . Hey .
Gabi : Hey , are you guys ready to order ?
Hope : Okay , I m not seeing things . You re really here and you re working ?
Gabi : Yeah , you re not seeing things .
Hope : Well , what are you doing here ? You just got married this morning .
Gabi : Well , it -- probably slipped Caroline s mind . She had therapy and she asked me to cover for her .
Hope : And you did nt say anything ?
Gabi : Well , no , I mean , she s been so great to -- to me and Nick , and it s no big deal . I m happy to do it .
Hope : Thank you . Thank you .
Gabi : No problem .
Hope : That s very kind of you and very much appreciated .
Gabi : It s no big deal .
Eric : Well , the parishioners are running a job bank . They re gon na help you prepare a resume . Look for employment opportunities online .
Vargas : I m not sure what s out there for a guy like me . I mean , I m not a genius like some people . But I m not afraid of having to work hard for what I want .
Daniel : [ Sighs ] Can not believe I missed her . Had this conference for a few days and I just -- I wanted to talk to her before I left and tell her--
Abigail : Look , Daniel , my mom did nt say too much to me , but I got the sense that the last time you two talked it did nt go well . I think maybe it was too soon . You were nt ready . I really do . I think part of you just is saying that it s too soon . And you re afraid in some way of betraying Jack . I should nt have come by .
Abigail : Probably not .
Daniel : Would you , um -- would you mind if I left this for her ?
Abigail : Sure . [ Chuckles ] She looks really happy here . You both do .
Abigail : I m sorry . I need to answer this .
Daniel : No , yeah , go ahead . I ll let myself out . Thanks .
Abigail : Oh , okay . Hi . Nothing . What are you doing ?
Kristen : Whoa . Hi .
Daniel : Hey .
Kristen : Just where do you think you re going , mister ?
Daniel : W--
Nicole : I m assuming , uh , you picked these out ?
Nancy : And why would you assume that ?
Nicole : Well , judging by Chloe s lingerie , she s a leopard print girl .
Nancy : You know , Nicole , if you do nt have something nice to say , perhaps you should shut your mouth .
Nicole : Does Daniel know his squatters are redecorating in his absence ?
Nancy : Daniel told us to make ourselves at home .
Nicole : I m pretty sure he was just being nice .
Nancy : You know , Nicole , if you have some information that my daughter might find useful I ll be happy to impart it to her .
Nicole : Useful ? You mean her tramp - tastic pursuit for Daniel ?
Nancy : My daughter is not a tramp .
Nicole : You re right . Desperate is probably a better word . Look , I told her she s on her own . She has to do her own dirty work .
Nancy : You are such a fair - weather friend .
Nicole : Fair - weather ? I think I ve been there for Chloe more than you have .
Nancy : Well , you know what Nicole , that door has not moved since you sashayed through it . Perhaps you d like to leave .
Nicole : But I m having such a good time catching up with you . How is that out- of - your - league husband doing anyway ?
Nancy : Oh , Nicole . You really should leave before I hurt you .
Nicole : I m sorry , I ca nt . I have business with my fair - weather friend . I hope your brought an umbrella because I m about to rain all over Chloe Lane s parade .
Chloe : I do nt need to tell you how beautiful the cabin is this time of year . You know , close to spring ? Lucas and I , we were really happy living there . Well , until I met Daniel and , well , you know the rest .
Jennifer : Why are you doing this ?
Chloe : Excuse me ?
Jennifer : Really do you have no sense of decency , Chloe ? I mean , I know that we have our differences , but why are you doing this ? Really , I m trying to walk away from the situation and you re just trying to provoke me .
Chloe : Oh , come on , Jenn . Why are you being so hostile ? Come on . We have history , you and I. We were family , remember ?
Jennifer : No . No . You were just a horrible mistake that my brother made .
Chloe : Wow , huh . The claws come out .
Jennifer : Oh , my claws come out ? Oh , yeah , right . Oh , and by the way , Daniel s not here so you do nt need to turn on the performance for the Chloe Lane s theatre .
Chloe : I m just trying to make conversation .
Jennifer : Really ? Do you wanna talk ? Okay , I would love to talk . Why do nt we talk about last night ?
Chloe : What ?
Jennifer : Oh , what ? Really ? Somehow -- and I do nt know how you did this -- but you knew that I was going to see Daniel . And when I got there , you made it look like you were in bed with him . And then you went to so much trouble to find me to tell me that it was nt what it looked like , pretending to be so innocent when we all know that is one thing that you are not , Chloe .
Chloe : Jennifer , I do nt know what I did to make you think I would go to such extremes--
Jennifer : Oh , will you stop it , and wipe that smug look off your face . You lie . You are such a liar . And you know what ? Maybe you just need a big dose of the truth and that is that you are a duplicitous little tramp .
Chloe : Wow . Well--
Jennifer : What ?
Chloe : I had my doubts about you , but now I m 100 % certain that Daniel will never , ever , ever wanna be with you .
Nick : Hey .
Hope : Hey . Hi , married man .
Nick : [ Chuckles ]
Hope : Oh , my gosh . Look at you . Glowing . I just wanted to say thank you so much for being so incredibly understanding and letting Gabi cover for Caroline on your wedding day .
Nick : Oh , of course . Caroline s always been in my corner . It s the least I can do .
Hope : I really am so proud of you , Nick . You know , the way you ve gotten your life back on track , it s just -- it s incredible . You really seem happy .
Nick : I am . Why do I sense a but coming ?
Hope : But I still think it might be a really good idea to talk to someone about your time in prison . Nick , I love you . I only want the best for you . I want your happiness with Gabi to last a lifetime . But if you re carrying around some baggage from your time on the inside , I - I do nt want it to come back to haunt you . So would you at least think about talking to someone ?
Vargas : It s not just that I spent the last decade behind bars . I ve been in and out of institutions my whole life . I mean , that s really what I know . Not that I m looking for sympathy or anything .
Eric : Oh , I did nt think you would . I truly believe everything is gon na work out .
Vargas : I hope you re right , Father . Either way , I ve got a new outlook now and I m gon na make the best of this opportunity that you re giving me to make sure that I never see the inside of a cage again .
John : You got my message .
Brady : What do you want ?
John : I m not perfect , kid . I made a mistake . And I was wrong . I was wrong to lie to you , to -- to mislead you about accepting your relationship with Kristen . But you got ta know that I did what I did because I love you . You re my son . And all of my instincts were propelling me to try to protect you , to take care of you , to keep you from getting hurt . I just hope that you can find it in your heart to ... give your old man a second chance .
Kristen : Ooh . So happy to find you here . I guess I m not the only one with good news to share , huh ? Where s Jennifer ? Is she here ?
Daniel : No , no , she -- she took off for a couple of days , actually . I was just heading out myself .
Kristen : Oh . So I guess , from the look on your face , you guys did not patch things up .
Daniel : Uh , no .
Kristen : Oh . I just assumed that , you know , cause you were here , that-- sorry .
Daniel : Mm , no .
Kristen : Okay , well , I guess-- I m just going to leave a note for Jennifer , then .
Daniel : Great , okay . Yeah , that sounds -- that sounds good . Um , I - Ill see you later .
Kristen : Hey , wait , Daniel ? I do nt know if you re aware of my history with Jennifer . It s kind of complicated . You know , we were really good friends , and then-- well , we re kind of friends again , and I care about her . So I m just going to dive right in and ask you . Did you do it ?
Jennifer : Wow , you are even more deluded than I thought . To think that you really believe you have any insight into Daniel or me .
Chloe : How dare you talk like that in front of my son .
Jennifer : [ Laughs ]
Chloe : Daniel s son . How do you know that he does nt understand every word that you re saying , and that your cruelty could have a severe psychological effect on him ?
Jennifer : Oh , Chloe , would you give me a break ?
Chloe : And to call me a whore in front of him ?
Jennifer : What ? That is not what I called you .
Chloe : Daniel loves his little boy more than anything in the world . More than himself . And more than you . So as nice as it s been to have this little chat with you , I m not going to keep you any longer .
Daniel : Did I do what ?
Kristen : Did you sleep with Chloe ?
Vargas : Mm , I do nt , uh , suppose they take IOUs here .
Eric : [ Laughs ] Do nt worry at all . This is on the big guy upstairs .
Vargas : I appreciate that .
Hope : Thank you , Father Eric .
Eric : You re welcome . If you ll excuse me for a minute .
Vargas : And I want to thank you , too , for all of your help so far .
Hope : I m happy to do it . You know , I believe people can change if given the right , um , opportunity and the right kind of support and a second chance .
Vargas : I d like to think so .
Hope : My cousin , Nick Fallon , um , just recently got out of prison , and I have to say , he s really gotten his life back on track .
Vargas : Good for him .
Hope : Yeah . I believe the two of you were at Statesville at the same time . Did you happen to know him ?
Eric : I hear congratulations are in order .
Gabi : Yes , thank you . Uh , you can understand why we did nt have a church ceremony this time .
Eric : I do , I do .
Gabi : I - I know I ve said it before , but I - I want to say I m really , really sorry about how things turned out with me and Nick . You know , I - I should have been up front with you , with everybody .
Eric : No , no , I think it was a tough situation for everyone involved . Listen , I have something here for you and Nick . It s a little bit of a wedding present . I was going to leave it with my grandmother , but being that you re here and all , please , open . Christ s first miracle was turning water into wine , in the spirit of celebration . You know , I think there s a message in there , that with love and faith , you can turn a very bad situation into something wonderful , something that you and Nick and will have done with this baby . And I know that a bottle of wine is nt the most appropriate gift for a pregnant woman .
Gabi : No , it s , uh , it s perfect . Well , you know what they say . Wine gets better with age .
Eric : Well , if you say so . Well , you can save it , hold on to it , and celebrate after the baby s born .
Gabi : Oh , thank you . Thank you so much . This means so much to me . But you know what ? Your forgiveness means more than anything .
Vargas : Nick Fallon . The name sounds familiar . Young , skinny kid , right ? Is he part of the prison release program , too ?
Hope : No , he s not .
Eric : Okay . You know , I think that Nick and Gabi are going to be very happy together . Gabi is Nick s wife . They got married today .
Vargas : Lucky guy .
Eric : Yeah . Well , what do you say we all head on back to the church and see if the heater s been fixed ?
Hope : Sounds great . Grab your jacket .
Vargas : Lead the way .
John : Oh , come on , kid . Say something . Anything . Yell , scream , curse , take a shot at me , if it makes you feel better . Just give me something .
Brady : I am marrying Kristen .
Chloe : [ Laughs ]
Nicole : Oh . Well , you re in a good mood . What s got you on such a high note ?
Daniel : Where did you hear that I slept with Chloe ?
Kristen : From Jennifer .
Daniel : From J-- what ? No , Kristen , that does nt even make sense , cause that-- that never happened .
Kristen : Well , that s certainly not the impression Jennifer has . She went to your room last night . Guess who opened the door ? Chloe . And guess where you were ? In bed , passed out , half - naked .
Daniel : Okay , that-- that never happened . Kristen--
Kristen : Well , that is what Chloe told Jennifer , that it never happened . She came here after to tell Jennifer that she hoped she did nt give her the wrong impression . She does nt want there to be any misunderstanding .
Daniel : That s what Chloe told her ?
Kristen : Mm , yeah .
Daniel : Oh , my God . Oh , my God-- oh , thank you .
Kristen : Ooh , sure .
Daniel : Thank you so much .
Chloe : Okay , sweetness . Grandma s going to take you for your nap , okay ?
Nancy : Are you sure you do nt want me to stick around ? She s in kind of a mood .
Chloe : She s always in a mood . Trust me , I ll be fine .
Nancy : All right . Good luck . Come on , sweets . Let s go in the back , and Grandma s going to read you the story about the blonde , evil witch that came to the house--
Nicole : Always nice to see you too , Nance .
Chloe : So , what s up , Nicole ?
Nicole : Well , I wanted to talk to you about your application for the music board at the church . And , uh , it s been reviewed and rejected . Sorry .
Chloe : Do nt be . No big deal .
Nicole : Well , I figured you can handle it . If anyone can handle rejection--
Chloe : Speaking of rejection , should nt you leave now ?
Nicole : You know , Daniel might be okay with you shacking up here with Parker and your mom , but I ll be damned if you re going to use Eric and the church to further your sinful agenda .
Nancy : What s all that ?
Chloe : Confetti . We re going to celebrate .
Nancy : That Nicole left ?
Chloe : No . That Daniel and Jennifer are finally over .
Jennifer : Daniel , it s going to be okay .
Daniel : Yeah . Yes . Yes , it , uh , it is . It is .
Jennifer : Oh , Daniel . Everything was so right . How did it go so wrong ?
Eric : Ugh . You know , I did nt think it was possible , but I think it s hotter in here . Looks like somebody tried to take a crack at it while we were out .
Vargas : They were nt too successful , were they ?
Eric : No . You know what , I m going to go find Father Matt and see if it was him or if he brought in somebody from the outside .
Vargas : And I always thought it was the guys downstairs who had the heating problem .
Nick : Hey . Caroline s back already ?
Gabi : Yeah , Kayla dropped her off a few minutes ago .
Nick : What s in the bag ?
Gabi : This is a wedding present from Father Eric .
Nick : Really ?
Gabi : Mm - hmm .
Nick : Wine ?
Gabi : Yeah , he says it s one of his favorites . And I , obviously , told him we re going to open it after the baby s born . And I want to share it with Will .
Nick : With Will ? Why ?
Gabi : Well , because for the first time in a really , really long time , I just feel like things are going to be okay . The three of us are going to raise the baby together . And once Arianna s here , then I want to make a toast with my husband and my baby s father .
Nick : No .
Gabi : No what ? Nick ?
Nick : Will ca nt be a part of that .
Gabi : What -- what-- he ca nt be a part of-- what are you talking about , Nick ?
Nick : Just -- just leave it alone , okay ?
Gabi : No , stop . I m not going to leave it alone , okay ? You know what , that s it . What is it about will that you re not telling me ?
Nicole : Oh , my God . Oh , my--
Vargas : Hello .
Gabi : Okay , Nick , I really need you to explain to me why you re acting like this . I mean , we -- we both know perfectly well that Will is going to be a part of our little girl s life .
Nick : No , he s not .
Gabi : What ? What are you even saying ?
Nick : He s not going to be part of -- of this little girl s life , because he agreed . He signed away his parental rights , Gabi . In the eyes of the law , will is no longer the father of your child .
Brady : Hello .
Kristen : Hi .
Brady : How you doing ?
Kristen : Oh .
Brady : Oh . Hold on .
Kristen : What ?
Brady : Something s wrong .
Kristen : You and--
Brady : Something is wrong here .
Kristen : Why ? It s you and me and two glasses of sparkling cider , what could be wrong ?
Brady : We re missing something .
Kristen : What are you talking about ? [ Gasps ]
Brady : Come on .
Kristen : [ Laughs ]
Brady : Come on . Please fit -- ahh .
Kristen : You re making all my dreams come true .
Nancy : Daniel and Jennifer are over for good ? I do nt understand . Did you come up with a plan ?
Chloe : Not yet , but I just ran into little Miss Blondie herself at the square . Let me tell you , Mom . She s biting the dust .
Nancy : She s leaving ? For good ?
Chloe : If only .
Nancy : I do nt understand .
Chloe : Well , all I know is that Daniel is getting on a plane , and she s getting on a boat . So I can take comfort in the fact that , tonight , Daniel and Jennifer will be thousands of miles apart .

Jennifer : [ Gasps ]

### Dialogue:
Dixie : Babe ? Babe , is that you ? Oh ! No !
Tad : Dix ?
Tad : Hey . What is it , another nightmare ?
Dixie : No . It s a memory . I was back in that room with David , and there was that woman . And I could nt see who it was , but David --
Tad : David is in jail , ok , right where he belongs . He can not hurt you anymore . It s over .
Dixie : No , it s not over . He has two other people that he s stashed away somewhere , and one of them could be Babe .
Tad : That s just what he wants Krystal to believe .
Dixie : But what if it s true ?
Tad : But what if it is nt ? What if it s just David being David , playing another sick game ?
Dixie : I have to find out . I have to see him . Tad , it s not what you think .
Tad : I did nt say anything .
Dixie : No , you did nt have to .
Tad : Dixie , what do you expect ? I know there s nothing going -- I know that s not the case , but this is the man who held you prisoner . He conducted science experiments on you and God knows how many other people . I do nt want you to see him for any reason . I do nt want anyone to see him . All of Pine Valley would be better off .
Brot : You have a visitor .
David : I do nt want any visitors . I want a lawyer .
Liza : No self - respecting attorney would take your case -- that s why I m here .
Maya : Hey .
Colby : Hi . Hi , Maya . What s up ?
Maya : Nothing . So I heard what s been happening to your family , losing the house and everything . Uh , I m sorry about that .
Colby : Thanks .
Maya : So is it really happening ?
Colby : Yeah .
Maya : How -- how does Asher feel about that ?
Colby : I do nt actually really know . He s kicking his whole pill thing , and I do nt want to bug him with my problems .
Maya : You miss him , do nt you ?
Colby : You ca nt really miss something that you never really had . What about you ? How s your life going ? Do you know what you re gon na do with your baby ?
Maya : Things would be so simple if I could just leave , go somewhere , start a new life . But how do I do that to Angie and Jesse ?
Jesse : Why do nt you let me help you with that ?
Angie : Oh , no , it s fine . I woke hoping the morning sun would be shining in my eyes , and I could see Lucy s face just once before Maya takes her .
Jesse : Hey , listen . Maybe Maya will have a change of heart . She knows she can stay here , make this her home . We can help her .
Angie : It is nt going to happen , Jesse . Lucy s hers , and she needs to be with her mother . We just have to accept that .
Jesse : Whatever happens , you will see Lucy one day .
Angie : You ve been the doubter through all of this . What s changed ?
Jesse : Watching you , seeing your strength , your dignity . And no matter what happens next , Angela , even if you ca nt forgive me for what I ve done , I will always believe in you . Always .
Angie : Thanks for having such faith in me .
Jesse : Always . I just wish that there was something I could do to make --
Angie : I guess that also means that you have faith in David , too .
Jesse : Just because he can work miracles does nt excuse him for what he does to people in order to make those miracles work .
Angie : Jesse , do nt let them take him away . I mean , I m not asking you to forgive his crimes . Just let him stay here a little while longer .
Jesse : You afraid you might need more treatment , and he s the only one that can give it to you , right ?
Angie : Yes , that s part of it .
Jesse : The other part ?
Angie : There are two more patients he has somewhere .
Jesse : He s not gon na give them up , Angela .
Angie : How do you know ?
Jesse : He does nt have to .
Angie : I d like to talk to him .
Jesse : See if you can appeal to his good side ? He does nt have one of those .
Angie : I believe that you re wrong about that . One of those patients could be his daughter Babe , and I would never forgive myself if I did nt at least try to bring her back to her mother .
Maya : How am I gon na do this ? I do nt have a job . I do nt even have a place to go with the baby .
Colby : My mom actually adopted a baby boy . His name was Stuart , after my Uncle Stuart . He was so cute . We were madly , madly in love with him .
Maya : So what happened ?
Colby : We had to give him back . His birth mother wanted him back . It was absolutely miserable . My mother -- I had never seen her that unhappy in my entire life . So if you want to do Angie and Jesse a favor and you want to leave , do it quickly .
Liza : May I talk to Dr. Hayward alone , please ?
Brot : I ll be right outside .
Liza : Thank you .
David : All right . Here s my defense , short and sweet . Zach , Ryan , Griff , even Greenlee and Kendall -- they all conspired against me to entrap me .
Liza : Oh , come on . David , you broke the law , and you got caught . You have played God for the umpteenth time , and you still do nt realize that you ca nt do that .
David : I think this is what you meant to say -- I cleaned up God s mess .
Liza : Really ?
David : Yes , really . I corrected his mistakes , and now everyone in this town wants to crucify me .
Liza : Some people would call that blasphemy . Why do nt we talk about your conspiracy -- with Reverend Ricky Torres and those casino criminals who brought down Zach s plane ? Were you cleaning up God s mess then , too ?
David : I had no idea that they were gon na go that far . Anyway , there s no way that they can prove I knew anything about that , sabotaging the plane .
Liza : Ok , come on . Enough . No more lies between client and lawyer , all right ? No more excuses . Stop trying to play me .
Dixie : You do nt have to worry about David anymore . He does nt have any hold on me . Come on , I m free . He just has some people stashed away somewhere , and I m worried . What if one of them is Babe ? Think what that would mean to Krystal and to J.R. Look , I m lucky . But if I can help get those two people home --
Tad : Then you re gon na try ?
Dixie : Yeah .
Tad : I know . I get it . I m still not gon na let you do it --
Dixie : Oh , Tad , come on .
Tad : Alone . Alone . You re big enough to deal with Hayward , and so am I. So what do you say we do it together ?
Liza : I m not gon na take your case .
David : You re not gon na take my -- what are you talking about ? Liza , you ve always been there for me in the past . Now , I know we ve had our problems , but our friendship is -- it means something to me .
Liza : I m just not that person anymore .
David : So , what , this is some kind of newfound morality ?
Liza : I have been taking a really good look at my life and all the ways that I have screwed it up , and I expect more from myself .
David : Then it was nice knowing you , Liza .
Liza : You know , David , I have nt given up on you , and I am still rooting for you on the sidelines .
David : That s funny . Really ? And what are you rooting for ?
Liza : That after everything you ve been through , you still have a chance to learn something .
Brot : Tad .
Tad : Brot . We d like to see David Hayward .
Dixie : Just for a few minutes . I think we can get him to tell us who else he s holding .
David : Well , look at this . The gang s all here , huh ?
Dixie : Hello , David .
Tad : You representing him ?
Liza : No . Just one old friend giving advice to another . Good luck . I mean that .
Brot : All right . You got five minutes .
Dixie : Thank you .
David : So what can I do to enhance your lives ? Oh , that s right -- I ve already done that .
Tad : In so many ways . This was Dixie s idea .
David : Fascinating .
Dixie : There s no reason to hold back now . Just tell me if you have Babe .
Caleb : I m gon na show you the best fishing hole in West Virginia . You re gon na have such a good time at my cabin that you wo nt even think about that stupid Internet .
Asher : I ca nt promise I m not gon na search for Wi - Fi still .
Caleb : You can do that , but it might not hurt to bring some college catalogues around .
Asher : Yeah . Could I get a coffee to go ?
Caleb : Colby .
Colby : Hi , Mr. Cortlandt . Hi .
Asher : Hey .
Colby : How are things ?
Asher : Busy , you know ?
Colby : Oh , you and Caleb ?
Asher : Yeah . It s a little weird -- a good weird . We ve been getting along most of the time , but it s like he kind of just wants to snap his fingers and make everything seem ok .
Colby : I know the feeling .
Asher : Um , anyway , I m actually heading off to a meeting .
Colby : Right , yeah . Right . A meeting .
Asher : So I better get to it .
Colby : What are you doing after ?
Asher : I do nt know . I ve got a lot of work to do . So --
Colby : I understand . I have , like , so much stuff to do , too . It s crazy -- so much stuff .
Asher : Yeah . I guess I ll see you around .
Colby : See you around .
Asher : Yeah .
Colby : Bye .
Caleb : Teen romance .
Liza : Yeah , she just still does nt seem happy . I do nt know why I think I can rectify it . I ca nt seem to make anybody happy these days .
Caleb : That s not completely true .
Liza : We are getting closer . We are . It s just really slow . And my mother -- she just ca nt seem to stop grieving Stuart , and nothing I do helps . I wish I could make someone smile .
Caleb : Right here . From the way you flatten the opposition , impress the judge -- say nothing about those four - inch heels that you wear for closing arguments .
Liza : Why do nt you just stop right there ?
Caleb : Why ? Because you re not interested ? Because you are .
Colby : Mom ? Sorry . Can I talk to you for a second ?
Liza : Yeah . Sure , honey , yes . What s wrong ? What s going on ?
Colby : Can Maya and her baby move in with us ?
Angie : Do you know how much I love you , hmm ? Do you know what I feel when I hear your little soft cry and just smell that sweet smell when you re fresh out of your bath , hmm ? Huh ? Do you know ? Do you know ?
Maya : I do nt want to make this harder than it already is . That s why I m moving out today with Lucy .
David : Do nt you think you two are jumping to conclusions ?
Tad : Are we ? You ve already hinted at Krystal you might be holding Babe .
David : All I ever said to anyone is that I have two more patients under my care .
Tad : And let me guess -- you wo nt tell us who .
David : What makes you think I owe you an exclusive ?
Dixie : He s right . You do nt owe us anything . You saved my life , and I m grateful for that , but now you have a chance to save another one : J.R.
David : I m sorry . I m not getting the connection here .
Dixie : Listen , his world is falling apart . He s lost his company , his home . He s about to lose custody of his son .
David : Did nt I predict that a long time ago ? So you think Babe is gon na be his salvation ?
Dixie : Yes . That is why I am begging you . Please tell us if you have Babe .
David : Do you honestly believe that I would save my daughter only to let J.R. destroy her again ?
Dixie : David , he would nt do that .
David : He turned her life into a living hell . I ll tell you this -- if J.R. were on fire right now , I would nt even hand him a glass of water . Does that answer your question ?
Tad : Ok , forget about J.R. So you re not willing to do it for our son . Are you willing to do it for your daughter ? Are nt you willing to do it for Babe ?
Liza : So Maya wants to keep the baby , but she does nt have a place to stay ?
Colby : Yeah , that s right .
Liza : Why does nt she just stay with Angie and Jesse ?
Colby : The longer she s around there , the harder it s gon na get for them . And Maya -- she wants to go to school and she wants to get a job . I know that you do nt want to hear this right now , and I totally know you do nt want to deal with it , so --
Liza : No , actually , I would . Having a baby around the house ? I do nt know about that .
Colby : What ? So I can tell Maya it s ok ?
Liza : Tell her that it s ok . I think this ll be an adventure , huh ?
Colby : Yeah .
Liza : Yeah .
Colby : We can do baby things . We can go to the park . It will be like a lot -- what s wrong ?
Liza : Oh , yeah . I was just thinking about Angie and Jesse . I know how hard it s gon na be for them .
Maya : Is it ok if I take the stroller and stuff ? I mean , I do nt have any money now , but I will soon .
Angie : It s all right . Take what Lucy needs .
Maya : Thank you .
Jesse : So you do have a place to go ?
Maya : Colby said that she would help me . And if not , I could just stay at a motel for a day or two .
Jesse : See , that s just the thing -- you do nt have to stay at a hotel . You can stay here .
Maya : I ca nt . The longer I stay here , the harder it ll be for us and for you guys , too .
Jesse : All I m saying is it does nt have to be --
Angie : No , Jesse , she s right . The truth is we would keep Maya and Lucy here forever if we could , but that s not what Maya wants . So it s better if she makes a clean break .
Maya : Thank you . You guys have been so wonderful . I could never thank you enough for what you ve done for both of us .
Angie : Please .
Maya : I just have a few more things to grab before I go .
Jesse : I guess I better get --
Angie : No , Jesse , wait . Uh , I need to say good - bye . How do I say good - bye to you , Lucy ? You ve brought such joy to our lives . You came into our family when you needed us and when we needed you . And we will never forget you . Not ever . And I want you to know something . If you ever need anything , anything at all , we will be here for you and your mom -- because we love you . We love you so much . And even if you are far away or on the other side of the world , I will see you in my mind and in my heart .
Maya : I think I got everything I need .
Jesse : And you ll let us know when you get settled , right ?
Maya : I will .
Jesse : Even if you -- even if you decide to leave town , ok , you call us .
Maya : I will , definitely . I will let you know , I promise .
Angie : I want you to make sure that you remember to sing her -- play her lullaby for her before she goes to sleep .
Maya : I wo nt forget .
Angie : And her favorite blanket .
Maya : I will . Angie ?
Angie : God bless you , Maya . God bless both of you . Bye . [ Sniffles ]
Angie : Uh , you know what ? Maya will do just fine . She is such a brave , strong young lady , and she loves Lucy so much . This will all work out , you know ? It was -- it was meant to be this way . Oh -- no . I do nt want to start to cry , because if I do , I wo nt stop . Uh , I have to do something .
Jesse : What do you need to do ?
Angie : I have to talk to David . I want to see him right now .
Tad : Just tell us whether or not Babe is alive .
David : And why should I do that , Tad ? Because we re such good friends ?
Tad : No . Because Krystal s a good woman , and she deserves to know whether or not she s ever gon na get a chance to see her daughter again , you arrogant son of a bitch . Who do you think you are to torture a person like that with false hope ?
David : I do nt owe you or anyone else any answers here .
Tad : Maybe not , but what do say I send you back to your cell with a makeover ? Answer the question --
David : Guard !
Brot : What the hell is going on in here ?
David : This lovely conversation is over .
Brot : I think it s best if the two of you leave .
Tad : You only got one shot , one last chance to do something righteous in your life .
David : Why could nt you just be grateful ? If you really cared about the people I ve helped , why could nt you just support me ? Why could nt you defend me against Ryan and Zach when they set me up ?
Dixie : Nobody did this to you . This is your fault . You are responsible for everything that s happening right now in your life -- just like always .
Colby : So you re not representing David ?
Liza : No , no . But I think what I said to him actually got through .
Colby : Oh , I doubt that .
Liza : Colby , honey , he s not a monster .
Colby : He s done some monstrous things .
Liza : Yeah , he s also performed some miracles .
Colby : Miracles ?
Liza : Yes , and hopefully he s got a couple more of those where they came from . What ?
Colby : This is so weird .
Liza : What s weird ?
Colby : You re , like -- you re so --
Liza : What , nice ?
Colby : You re nice , I guess . And I guess if there s hope for David , there s hope for --
Liza : Even for your mother ?
Colby : Yeah , my mother .
Liza : Hmm . Ohh , look at that cute little face . Hi ! Hello !
Colby : Ok , Mom , that s good . I know . It s great . So how d it go ?
Maya : It was absolutely terrible watching Angie and Jesse faces when I took Lucy away , but they were great . I mean , they did nt try to fight me at all . I think they really want what s best for Lucy .
Liza : So do we . Colby told me that you do nt have a place to stay . You do now -- with us .
Maya : Oh , thank you . Thank you so much . And thank you . I promise that it s only temporary . Did you hear that , little Lucy ? We have such amazing friends .
Jesse : Babe , this is not gon na work .
Angie : Frankie s coming by . He ll take me to the station if you wo nt .
Jesse : But David is facing a long stretch in prison . He s not gon na volunteer information that he can use as a bargaining chip .
Angie : He ll talk to me .
Jesse : Angela --
Angie : Look , Jesse , do nt you -- do nt you get it ? I have to make something , something good out of this . Losing my sight , Ellie , and now Lucy -- it just can not be all darkness and death . I have to bring some light into the world . I have to . Oh , God , it just hurts . It just hurts so bad ! We ve just lost so much , Jesse . So much .
Jesse : Yeah , we have lost a lot . But one thing we still have is our family , the strength of our family . We ve had to be strong with what we ve had to face , and we will get through this , Angela . You will see again . I promise you that . You will see again . You have to keep believing that , ok ?
Angie : Thank you .
Jesse : No , do nt thank me . I do nt deserve it . I ve got a long way to go before I make things right .
Angie : I have to make something right come out of all of this , too .
Jesse : Listen , if you still want to go see David , at least let me go with you .
Angie : Jesse , he wo nt talk if you re there . You know that .
Angie : Oh , listen , that s Frankie outside . Let me do this my way , please .
Jesse : Ok .
Maya : Do you want to go to the park with us and feed the ducks ? Rain check on that . I will see you at home . Hey .
Asher : Hey .
Maya : See you .
Colby : Bye .
Maya : Thank you .
Liza : So you wanted to know if I m interested ?
Dixie : I just ca nt believe him !
Tad : He s nothing if not unbelievable .
Dixie : Not only does he refuse to tell anybody who he s got hidden away in those medical dungeons of his , but he blames everybody else for his problems ! It s Zach s fault . It s Ryan s fault . It s poor , pitiful David . What a jerk ! What ? What s so funny ?
Tad : What a jerk !
Dixie : Shut up !
Tad : You getting so wound up .
Dixie : Come on . Are nt you mad ?
Tad : No ! No . Actually , I got to tell you , I really liked our good cop / bad cop routine .
Dixie : How can you say that ? David did nt tell us anything .
Tad : Not yet , but you got to give it time to work . Have faith . We planted the seed . He s got a lot to think about , like a prison sentence stretching out before him into the horizon . I m still kind of digging on the fact that despite everything , despite everything we ve been through , we re still a pretty damn good team .
Dixie : Yeah , we did ok -- kind of like old times .
Tad : No , no , no . Niente on the old times . That s why they call them old times : They re old . They re behind us . I m looking forward to the new , improved times .
Dixie : Hmm . Really ?
Tad : Mm - hmm .
Dixie : Care to share some of that optimism with me ?
Tad : Thought you d never ask .
Dixie : Ha ha ha ! Oh . Oh . Oh , Tad . Oh . Oh .
Tad : Dixie ?
Dixie : Yes ?
Tad : You remember when you said you wanted to take it slow ?
Dixie : Yes . That s because I do nt want us to hurt each other .
Tad : Depends on what you re talking about . Sometimes a little bit of -- no . Um , I understand . What you were talking about is that we are two strong personalities , and we re bound to argue and fight sometimes .

Reva : I got everything .
Lizzie : Hurry , hurry , hurry . We have to unload all this stuff . We have to make it back for the wedding . We have to change .
Bill : We got plenty of time .
Lizzie : No , we do nt . And I do nt want to be late for your sister s wedding .
Bill : It s Dinah s wedding . There s got to be some sort of excitement . If things run smoothly , it just would nt seem right , baby .
Lizzie : Yeah . Your mom must be really happy .
Bill : Two kids married . I think more delirious than happy .
Lizzie : I miss my dad . I can not believe he bought us this house and then went on a road trip .
Bill : I know , but he s going to be back tomorrow , right ? Is that what your mom said ?
Lizzie : I think so , yeah .
Bill : Okay . All right . All right , you know what ? We should just take off , do the rest later , and get back in to change because we are going to be late if we do nt do that .

Alan : Oh . Listen , I m kind of getting hungry . I d like to go get a bite to eat .
Phillip : Okay , well , that s good because I read about this cafe that s about halfway between here and the next ballpark .
Alan : No , no , no . I m hungry now .
Phillip : They got the best pancakes in Ohio .
Alan : Well , I like good pancakes .
Phillip : Let s go .
Mallet : When are the lies going to stop ?

Mallet : Yes , we have . Fresh start .
Marina : Yeah , I m glad we re going to have a fresh start .
Mallet : Starting over , right ? Telling each other about everything ?
Marina : Everything .
Mallet : And if there s something we have nt talked about , we should probably ...
Marina : Put it out in the open .
Mallet : Yeah . Because we owe that to Henry , right ? I mean , I think it s important that Henry sees his parents communicating with each other , right ?
Marina : Yeah .
Mallet : Teaching the importance of being honest , right ? Because , rich or poor , being a good , honest person means more than all the money in the world . I mean ... right ? That s important , right ? I mean , look at Alan Spaulding or Edmund Winslow .
Marina : Absolutely . Okay . I think we should probably grab Henry , right ? We got to get him over to Company before the wedding starts . I m so glad that Dinah and Shayne are getting married today . Because they re getting to start their life all over , and so are we .
Shayne : Hi .
Dinah : Those are beautiful . What are those ?
Shayne : These are flowers . I picked them myself . I almost got caught .
Dinah : They re beautiful , but I think I m allergic to that .
Shayne : Your ... well , did you get flowers ?
Dinah : I did , I did .
Shayne : You did ?
Dinah : I did .
Shayne : Okay .
Dinah : Lilacs . I got lilacs .
Shayne : Okay .
Dinah : They seem to really not bother me .
Shayne : All right , all right .
Dinah : But they re beautiful . They re beautiful .
Shayne : Not as beautiful as you . Not as beautiful as you . Here , I put these right there .
Dinah : No carriage today ?
Shayne : Not today .
Dinah : That s all right . I do nt think I could ride a bike , though .
Shayne : ( Laughs ) No bike rides . I thought we d walk .
Dinah : It s a beautiful day for a walk .
Shayne : Walk to our wedding ? Yeah ?
Dinah : Yeah .
Shayne : It s a beautiful day for a wedding .
Dinah : I love them . It s like they re wishing us well .
Shayne : They mate for life , you know ?
Dinah : I know .
Shayne : We should follow their example .
Dinah : I m ready . I m ready to land , to be somewhere that I m loved and appreciated .
Shayne : Yeah ? Then you picked a good spot to land .
Dinah : You think after we re married we ll still take walks and fly kites and have fun ?
Shayne : Yes , I do . I think we ll do it for the rest our lives . I think we ll do it with our kids . Yeah .
Dinah : Kids ?
Shayne : Yeah . Yeah , I said it , kids .
Dinah : Kids .
Shayne : Yeah , kids . I ca nt wait to have a little girl who looks just like you , beautiful like her mother .
Dinah : Wow , you know , making plans for the future . You know , I never thought I d have that for myself .
Shayne : Let s get married first . Then we ll start with the rest of it .
Dinah : All right . Do you think anyone s going to show up at this wedding ?
Shayne : No . Of course , people are going to show up . Remy s going to be there , there s free food .
Dinah : ( Laughs ) Oh , I did nt ... I did nt mean it like that .
Shayne : No , people are going to show up . We invited our family , a couple of our closest friends . Do you ... should we wait ? Do you want ... should we have a bigger wedding ?
Dinah : No , I do nt think we should wait .
Shayne : We re not rushing it , are we ?
Dinah : I want to get married now .
Shayne : Yeah ?
Dinah : I want to get married now , yes , to you . I want everybody to wish us well .
Shayne : Why would nt they ?
Dinah : Let s go ! I got to get you to the courthouse on time , sir .
Shayne : Actually , you re supposed to take my arm .
Dinah : Okay .
Joanne : Here you go , gentlemen .
Phillip : Thank you .
Joanne : You re welcome . Enjoy .
Alan : We drove a long way for these pancakes , I hope they re worth it .
Joanne : Well , so do I.
Phillip : Well ?
Alan : They re good .
Phillip : The trip has nt been so bad , has it ? See a little baseball , eat some pancakes .
Alan : Well , I d be fine if I thought that was all this trip was about , but I think you re hiding something , because of your insistence on me not going home to prepare for the board meeting .
Phillip : Oh , do nt worry , Dad . I ve done just about everything I planned to do on this trip .
Alan : Uh - huh , good . Then why do nt you stop playing games and tell me the real reason we re on this trip .
Phillip : Okay . You re right . I did nt bring you here just to see another ballpark .
Alan : I knew you had some kind of deal in the works .
Phillip : Maybe I do , but it s not the kind you think .
Alan : Why do nt you stop talking in riddles , huh ?
Phillip : Okay . Okay . I m going to try to be as straight with you as you were with me that day at the campsite .
Alan : You know , Phillip , you have made way too much of that story I told you .
Phillip : Why do nt we let them be the judge of that ?
Alan : The waitress ?
Phillip : Actually , she owns the place .
Alan : Oh .
Phillip : Here name is Joanne . Her son s name is Charlie .
Alan : Joanne and Charlie , huh ? How do you know them ?
Phillip : I do nt . But you do , in a way . Here last name is Pierce . She s the widow of Gerry Pierce , the boy who went to Vietnam in your place . Charlie is his son .
Alan : Is this some kind of set - up ?
Phillip : No . It s a chance for you to finally face something that has been haunting you all these years .
Reva : So , where is the bride and groom ?
Josh : They re walking .
Ashlee : Oh , is nt that romantic ? Here , smile . ( Camera clicks ) Perfect
Josh : They ll be here in a bit .
Mallet : You know what ? I got to check on something on the inside . I ll be right back .
Christina : I m so happy for Dinah and Shayne .
Marina : Yeah , me too . I mean , Shayne s a great guy , right ? And I think he really loves Dinah . And she turned out to be such a good friend to us . You know , she s the reason we have Henry .
Christina : I love hearing you talk about Henry .
Marina : Yeah ? Are you serious , it s not getting old ? I mean , have I told you how much I love that kid ?
Christina : No .
Marina : No ?
Christina : Yeah , I think so .
Marina : I think I forgot .
Remy : I opened the courthouse . Let s go . What s going on ? It s hard to see your ex getting married ?
Mallet : Oh , no , no . It s my current wife I m worried about .
Remy : You have nt worked that out yet ?
Mallet : You know , Remy , I thought I knew Marina better than anyone in the world . I mean , I trusted her more than anyone in the world , but nowadays I do nt know . I do nt know what to think .
Remy : Mallet , is this still about that John Doe murder ?
Mallet : It s about the fact that she ca nt tell the truth about anything , man . She s keeping secrets . She s keeping crazy secrets . Take a look at that . Look at that .
Remy : Henry s going to be a rich guy .
Mallet : Yeah , you know it . I found that hidden on a shelf . Why would nt she tell me about this ? This is a million dollars , why ?
Remy : You got me , man .
Mallet : Yeah , it s got me , too . It s starting to scare me .
Remy : Yeah , well , put it on hold , man . We have a wedding to go to .
Everyone : ( Cheers and applause ) Bravo , bravo .
Shayne : Thank you , thank you .
Josh : Shall we .
Remy : Shayne wanted me to check on you .
Ashlee : We re having a bit of a crisis .
Remy : All right , you ca nt change your mind , okay ? The poor guy s out there waiting for you .
Dinah : It s not that . I forgot to ask someone to just give me away .
Ashlee : Yeah , I told her it was nt a big deal . I mean , it s not like we re in a big church with a big aisle .
Remy : Yeah , it s no big deal . Problem solved , Dinah . I m here .
Dinah : You would do that for me ?
Remy : If it s okay with you .
Dinah : My dad would be so happy to know I ve got a good friend like you , and you , thank you .
Remy : Ash , tell them the bride s ready to be handed over .
Ashlee : Okay , let me ... let me take your hat .
Dinah : Okay . Thank you . Thank you .
Bill : How can you run in those shoes ?
Lizzie : Well , not very fast .
Bill : Well , do nt worry , weddings always start late , ours .
Lizzie : Wait , ours ca nt be compared with anyone else s . Ours had a life of its own . I feel this is embarrassing . We re going to go in there , and we re going to cause a commotion .
Bill : But you re a Spaulding . You love to make an entrance , right ?
Lizzie : No , Lizzie Spaulding liked to make an entrance . Lizzie Lewis is much more low key .
Bill : I see , I see .
Lizzie : Your sister has done so much for us , and we re going to walk in and ruin her wedding .
Bill : Well , we ll get her a good present .
Lizzie : She s turned her life around . I m proud of her . She s living proof that anyone can make up for past sins . Let s get in there . Come on .
Bill : Let s go .
Phillip : Dad , come back inside .
Alan : No !
Phillip : Dad , I know you feel terrible about what happened to Gerry . And I know you ve tried to make up for it . That s the reason they have this place . It s because of the money that you ve sent them all these years .
Alan : Oh , so now money can make up for the loss of a husband and a father ? Is that it ?
Phillip : No , but you did the best that you could .
Alan : You know , you had no right to bring me here .
Phillip : You confided in me . You said you felt like a coward knowing that Gerry had died for you . That s what you told me . You do nt have to feel like a coward , Dad . You can face it .
Alan : You know , I should never have told you that story because you re always trying to fix things . When are you going to learn to leave well enough alone , Phillip ?
Phillip : You told me for a reason . You do nt want to feel this way anymore . This is your chance . Go back in there , tell them who you are , ask for their forgiveness . I know it s not easy , but if you face it , you ll be free . You will finally be free to live the rest of your life . Dad , what do you really have to lose ?
Bill : Hey .
Lizzie : We are so sorry .
Dinah : It s okay . I m just glad you re here .
Bill : Yeah , well , what s going on ?
Remy : I m giving Dinah away .
Bill : Oh , that s great . You think Mom noticed that I m late .
Dinah : Yeah , yeah . You are both in the doghouse , but I m her favorite today , so do nt worry .
Bill : All right , well , I love you anyway . Okay , let s go .
Lizzie : Okay .
Dinah : Thanks .
Remy : It s not a big deal .
Dinah : It is to me . You re my best friend , Remy .
Remy : Back at you . So are you ready ? You want to do this ?
Dinah : You know what ? I want to be happy . I do nt deserve it , but I want it anyway .
Remy : Let s walk . Here comes the bride .
Shayne : Thank you , man .
Remy : My pleasure .
Shayne : Hi .
Dinah : Hi .
Shayne : Hi . You look great .
Dinah : Thank you .
Doris : Dearly beloved , we are gathered here today to celebrate the love between Shayne Lewis and Dinah Marler . From this day forward , they will be each other s love , best friend , confidant . They will be husband and wife . Now , I believe you two have things to say to each other .
Shayne : Yes . Dinah , I ve said this to you before , probably a million times , but I want to say it again right now , in front of all these people that we love . You saved my life . Literally , you saved my life . When you found me in Europe , I was a wreck . I was wrecked .
Dinah : I remember .
Shayne : Yeah . And ... you taught me how to live again . You gave me hope . And since that time , since that day we ve built this relationship on trust and honesty . And that means everything to me . See , I used to think that you only got one love in life . If you re lucky , you got one love in life . We both had loves before . We both lost loves , and you ve taught me that love does nt die . That it s going to go on . It s going to keep living through us . I want you to know that I promise you , for the rest of our lives , I m going to make sure to keep fighting that the love lives with us forever .
Dinah : You ve never tried to change me , not once . And I want to tell you how much I appreciate that . You ve always accepted me for who I am . And I promise you , from this day on , I will be the best me I can be , from now on . You deserve that . You are a wonderful man . And I am a lucky , lucky woman .
Doris : Are there rings ? Shayne ?
Shayne : Yeah . Thank you , Pop .
Doris : Repeat after me . With this ring , I thee we d .
Shayne : With this ring , I thee we d .
Doris : And now , by the power vested in me by the state of Illinois and the town of Springfield , I now pronounce you husband and wife . Shayne , you may kiss your bride . ( Cheers and applause )
Josh : Congratulations .
Doris : Oh , I just hope that you find someone to make you that happy .
Ashlee : You know what , Mom ? I hope that for you , too .
Josh : I tell you , I just ... I hope you both are as happy as you look .
Shayne : Happier .
Dinah : Your son is a wonderful man .
Reva : And you re a smart girl .
Dinah : Well , I feel very lucky . Very , very lucky , I ca nt believe it .
Shayne : Okay , okay . We got to go . We got to get over to Towers if we do nt want to upset the new mother - in - law .
Dinah : Yes .
Shayne : Let s go .
Phillip : Did you have a good walk ?
Alan : Not really . I just saw a bunch of cars and trucks on their way to nowhere .
Phillip : Did you go back to the restaurant ?
Alan : No , Phillip , I ... look , I know why you brought me here . And I would like to make you proud of me by going back there and facing up to my past , but I ca nt . I m ... I m afraid to . I want to , but I just ca nt .
Phillip : I just thought it might help all of us .
Alan : If I faced my demons ...
Phillip : No demons . It s Joanne and Charlie .
Josh : Go figure . We actually did something right .
Reva : We did a lot of things right . Our kids are amazing .
Josh : Yes , they are . Look at him . He s happy . I mean , you got to grab that kind of happiness when you can .
Reva : I know .
Josh : Sorry .
Reva : Oh , it s okay . I was lucky , even if it ended too soon . I just hope Shayne and Dinah s happiness lasts for a good long time .
Josh : Me , too .
Remy : Hey . Glad you made it , join the party , man .
Mallet : Remy , I m going to give my wife one more chance to tell the truth .
Remy : Maybe you should go home and talk to Marina later .
Mallet : Listen , man , it s not like I want to nail my wife for murder , okay . Even though there s a pile of evidence that points to her , and she has motive and she has no alibi .
Remy : So you d turn your wife in ?
Mallet : No . And even if people found out , she would nt be convicted . What judge would do that ?
Remy : So just drop it .
Mallet : She s a mother trying to protect her baby from a known psycho , I get all that . But listen , I need to know if she s capable , capable of telling the truth , Remy . Because when you do something like this you ca nt bury it . You ca nt pretend like it did nt happen because it always catches up to you in the end-- destroys your life in the long run . And I ca nt let that happen . I need to help her . That s what I m going to do . I m trying ... I m trying to get her some help .
Remy : Mallet .
Mallet : What ?
Remy : Nothing .
Mallet : Hi .
Marina : Hey , there you are .
Mallet : Yeah , I just called to check in on Henry .
Marina : How is he ?
Mallet : He s good . Yeah , he s good . Yeah .
Marina : You re such a good dad .
Mallet : I just want to make sure that Henry has everything he needs . You know , I was thinking about getting a second job lately .
Marina : Really ? Why ? I mean , even with the mess going on with Company right now , we re still better off than a lot of people .
Mallet : Yeah , I was just thinking maybe we should start putting some money away for Henry s future , make sure he has everything he needs .
Marina : Yeah , I guess so . You know , things are already so expensive now , they re just going to get more expensive .
Mallet : Yeah , yeah . It s not like Henry has buried treasure out there for him , right ?
Marina : No .
Mallet : No , he does nt , does he ?
Marina : No .
Mallet : We need to talk about something .
Marina : Okay .
Mallet : Like , right now , outside .
Bill : Ding , ding , ding . Attention , everyone , I d like to make a toast to the happy couple . I could nt be more happy for Dinah and Shayne that they found each other . And that they had the good sense to realize that when you find the special person that you want to spend the rest of your life with , well , you do nt waste any time . You get it done . So take care of my sister , Shayne . And I love you two . And I wish you many years of happiness . To Dinah and Shayne , everyone .
Everyone : Hear , hear . To Dinah and Shayne .
Marina : What is it ?
Mallet : What is that ?
Marina : It ... it came with the box that Edmund sent to Henry .
Mallet : The stuff that you burned ? The stuff that you burned . Why did nt you burn this ?
Marina : Because it s money , if it s real . I do nt know , I was going to run it by Jeffrey ...
Mallet : Why did nt you show it to me ?
Marina : Because you were busy , Mallet . Because you were under a lot of pressure , so I thought I could just run it by ...
Mallet : So you thought you d just hide it on a shelf ?
Marina : I did nt hide it , Mallet . Why are you so suspicious of everything I do ?
Mallet : Because I do nt think you re capable of telling the truth , and that scares me . It scares me for us , and it scares me for Henry .
Marina : Nothing has changed . It does nt matter what I say or what I do . You do nt trust me . You actually think that I killed that John Doe , and you think that I am lying to you .
Mallet : Marina , Marina , not telling me things is lying to me .
Marina : I get what you re thinking , okay ? I used to be a cop too , remember ? So I understand how this all looks , but if the situation was reversed , Mallet , I would try to give you the benefit of the doubt .
Mallet : I ve tried giving you the benefit of the doubt .
Marina : No , you have nt ! No , you have nt . You have come down harder on me than anyone else on your damn suspect list that s hanging in that station .
Mallet : I want to believe you more than anything in the world .
Marina : No , you do nt ! No , you do nt . And I m not quite sure why , but you are ruining any chance we have to be a family with your damn suspicions and accusations .
Mallet : Oh , my God , but I m not the one who s lying .
Dinah : Wait until they bring out the dessert . I got a baked Alaska .
Shayne : Baked Alaska ?
Dinah : Yeah .
Shayne : Are you going to light it yourself ?
Dinah : ( Laughs ) No , no . I turned over a new leaf today . I m an old married lady .
Shayne : Old married lady ? Ouch , I would nt say that . I would say that you should stay away from combustibles , though . But other than that , I just want you to be you .
Joanne : You still hungry ?
Alan : No , I think I ll just have a cup of coffee , please .
Joanne : Coming up . Here you go .
Alan : Thank you very much .
Joanne : Oh , that was my husband s . He was just a boy . They were all boys back then . Believe it or not , that big lug sitting in the corner was a little boy himself once . Actually , he s the one who makes me keep the silver star in here . He s awful proud of his dad . Look , I am too , but for him it s his one connection . It s a great thing when a son can be proud of his father .
Alan : Charlie ? My name is Alan Spaulding , and I knew your father .
Phillip : Hey , Ed . Phillip , returning your call . Everything is actually going okay , but I am starting to feel a little bit , so I think we will probably be heading back pretty soon . If you get a chance , could you give me a call back and let me know what s going on with that blood work ? Okay ? Thanks .
Remy : Hey , there starting to talk about you in there .
Mallet : Yeah , sorry .
Remy : What s up man ?
Mallet : I showed Marina the trust document and she had no good excuse for keeping it from me .
Remy : Wow .
Mallet : This makes me wonder about everything , Remy . When I think about all the things I ve stumbled upon , the fact that Shayne is Henry s father , all the evidence in the murder case , the trust document for Henry . I mean , man , as much as I want to believe Marina did nt kill that guy , I have no reason to believe that she s told me the truth about anything .
Remy : I admit it does nt look good .
Mallet : I think she s in trouble , man . I think she needs some help . I got to start thinking about protecting her from herself , and I got to start thinking about protecting Henry . I think the only way she s going to tell me the truth is if I bring her in for questioning about the John Doe case . Oh , man , I hate this . I m pretty damn sure that she killed that guy . Remy , I understand why . I get why . What I do nt understand is why would she let so many innocent people suffer .
Shayne : Where s my wife ?
Josh : Is that the first time you ve ever said that ?
Shayne : That was the first time I ve ever said that .
Billy : Wow . ( Laughter )
Shayne : That feels good . That feels good . It does .
Christina : I ll go check on Dinah .
Shayne : No , no , no . It s okay . It s okay , she ll be back soon .
Billy : Oh , yeah , she s going to be back . She s a happy bride .
Alan : Ed Bauer ? Hello ?
Dinah : Mallet !
Mallet : Dinah ?
Dinah : You ca nt do this .
Mallet : What s wrong ?
Dinah : I overheard you talking to Remy about Marina . You ca nt do this .
Mallet : Okay ... is nt this supposed to be your happy day ? It s your wedding day . So ... go . Forget you heard anything , okay ?
Dinah : Stop it ! Stop it . You ca nt do this .
Mallet : Okay , I do nt think I have a choice , Dinah , okay ? I ve tried the whole happy thing . The happy thing is not working for me . You ? You go be happy . You deserve it , okay .
Dinah : I ve tried . I ve tried to keep this a secret and I ca nt because I ca nt watch other people suffer like this .
Mallet : What are you talking about ?
Dinah : You ca nt turn in Marina . She did nt do anything . She did not kill that John Doe . I did . I did it .
Coming up on Guiding Light ...
Ed : Phillip , it s Ed .
Alan : Ed ....
Ed : Phillip , I got the results of those latest blood tests .
Bill : Well , it s a project , baby . I admit it . But we knew that going in . But we got our whole lives to make it perfect .
Dinah : I did nt want anyone to pay for my mistakes . And then you decide it s Marina .

<s>### Instruction:
You are a helpful, respectful and honest assistant. Your task is to summarize the following dialogue. Your answer should be based on the provided dialogue only.
### Dialogue:
Jax : No , I just got here . But it s Paris , you know . The city is as alive now as it was 12 hours ago . Ugh . One long day , one long night , depending on how you look at it . How s Alec enjoying Rome ? Good . Good . I m really happy for you . Glad you took him there . I mean , you liked it there , right ? Yeah . No , I m going to be up for a little while longer . I ve got some damage control to do . It s funny , is nt it -- I m in the most romantic city in the world , and the only girl I can think of is a million miles away , tucked up in her crib , thinking that everything is perfect with her little world when it s not .
Carly : Hmm . While the parrots pa - pa - cawled , and the lions all roared , sleepy time chimp just snored and snored . Hmm . Not the same as when Daddy reads it to you , is it ? He knows how to make all those--
Carly : Funny voices and make you laugh , huh , does nt he ? You know what he s doing right now ? He s missing you . Yes . He s wishing he could be here right now to give you a hug and a kiss . But I think I can do that .
Josslyn : Yeah .
Carly : [ Gasps ] Who s that ? We are never going to get you to bed tonight .
Josslyn : Mommy .
Carly : Yeah . Who do you think that is ?
Josslyn : Mommy !
Carly : Let s see .
Josslyn : Mommy .
Carly : Who s that ?
Shawn : Mind if I come in ?
Carly : Wow . Sure , come in . I thought you took off on us .
Shawn : I would nt do that . But I ve got something to tell you .
Lulu : How d you know I was here ?
Nikolas : I did nt . I came to see her .
Helena : What ? Nikolas , my darling . Oh , so dramatic . It s lovely to see you again , under any circumstance .
Nikolas : Save the civilities , please . I certainly intend to .
Siobhan : People deal with grief in different ways . Some people mourn in silence , keeping their pain locked inside . Others put it out on display for everyone to see , like you have been , hoping it will send Lucky back into your arms and into your bed .
Elizabeth : I m not trying to get him back .
Siobhan : No . You re trying to steal Lucky out from under me using every dirty trick in the book . Turning on the tears , invoking his dead son s memory .
Elizabeth : Jake was my son , too , and I miss him every aching second .
Siobhan : I do nt doubt it . Jake was a beautiful child , loving and happy . He had no idea that his mother was a lying slut , hell - bent on eliminating the competition for his daddy s affection .
Helena : Did you bring the children with you ? I do hope so . It s been far too long since Spencer sat down with me and learned the stories of his legacy .
Lulu : Let s hope they re not bedtime stories . He d never sleep again .
Helena : It s important that Aiden be informed as well .
Lulu : You mean indoctrinated ?
Helena : You test me .
Nikolas : Spencer is somewhere safe , and Aiden is with his parents .
Helena : Really ? Well , I was hoping that you had rethought all of that . Surely , you know you should nt give credence to Elizabeth s eleventh hour claims , a woman who wears desperation like some women wear perfume .
Nikolas : I would nt put it past you to manipulate a DNA test .
Lulu : Or two .
Helena : Should nt you be off having your own family illusions shattered ?
Lulu : My dad s not going to push me away .
Helena : Well , if he shows up . You know , Luke is nt the most reliable man . Well , take Nikolas , however . Now , he feels that he s bound by conventions , but he abandoned his child . No . Poor little Aiden is going to grow up being a commoner .
Nikolas : Aiden is not your concern . Leave him alone . Do nt even speak his name .
Helena : Well ! [ Laughs ] The dark , brooding prince returns . It s so good to have you home . You are home , are nt you ?
Shawn : Looks like the hearing went well .
Carly : Yeah . Um , Josslyn s home where she belongs .
Shawn : Jax went to a lot of trouble to try to prove Josslyn was nt safe with you . He ca nt be happy about having to share .
Carly : Judge gave me sole custody .
Shawn : Jax ca nt see Josslyn ?
Carly : Not without a drug test . The police found cocaine in Jax s hotel suite . I ca nt believe you did nt hear about it . It was all over the news .
Shawn : Your ex set him up ?
Carly : [ Laughs ] Sonny that predictable ?
Shawn : Jax is nt that stupid . He s not going to do anything to risk losing a shot at custody .
Carly : Yeah . Well , he was threatening to put Michael and Morgan on the stand and have them talk about how many times they have been hurt because of the business . This is all after Brenda told the judge how Sonny s car was shot up with her and her son in it . So I was going to lose Josslyn . I mean , I was done .
Shawn : So Sonny came in with the save .
Carly : I did nt want him to take it this far . I did nt . I -- I did nt want Jax to go to jail . Jax is a great father , you know . Josslyn deserves to have him in her life .
Shawn : The judge gave you custody , which means you can decide who Josslyn spends her time with .
Carly : I tried to work out a schedule with Jax . He just -- he ca nt even talk to me . He is so angry with me , and I -- I do nt blame him .
Shawn : Jax loves Josslyn . I m sure he ll come around .
Carly : He left . He came by the house to say good - bye to the kids , and he hopped on an airplane and took off .
Shawn : Just like that ?
Carly : I guess he thought that we were just going to fight all the time , and he did nt want to put Josslyn through it .
Shawn : You always like to think the best of the men in your life , do nt you ?
Carly : I was right about you .
Siobhan : What was going through your head when you injected the wrong medicine into my IV ? Was it relief ? Satisfaction ? Were you giddy with anticipation , knowing that Lucky would finally be free of me ?
Elizabeth : It was an accident .
Siobhan : Oh , an accident that would conveniently solve Lucky s biggest problem --the ball and chain that s been weighing him down , keeping Lucky from being with you .
Elizabeth : I picked up the wrong vial . It was a stupid mistake .
Siobhan : Oh , the mistake was in the amount . You misjudged how much it would take to kill me .
Elizabeth : I have two beautiful boys who mean the world to me . Why would I risk my life with them just to get rid of you ?
Siobhan : You did nt think that you would be caught . I was supposed to have died . It happens all the time in surgery . No one would bother to look into it .
Elizabeth : Oh , well , except maybe your husband the cop .
Siobhan : Oh , no . Lucky would be too busy getting consoled by you .
Elizabeth : Ok . Ok . I am so done apologizing .
Siobhan : I m surprised you do nt care about the thoughts running through my head , wondering whether they re the same as you had right before you injected my IV . So , is it really that smart to be standing that close to the edge ?
Nikolas : This is nt my home .
Helena : Well , it was for years . The halls are full of memories . As a matter of fact , I was just sharing the story of your conception with Lulu .
Lulu : How Stavros forced himself on our mother .
Helena : Careful , dear . People in glass houses .
Lulu : My parents loved each other .
Helena : Well , they grew to love each other . But your father became bored . Well , I assure you that the first night they spent together was far from a fairy tale . Well , at least Stavros had the decency to consummate the affair in a bed , but Luke , Luke opted for the floor of a campus disco .
Nikolas : Decent ? There was nothing decent about my father . He was a monster . Our family tree is full of them , each uglier than the one before .
Helena : Well , if you feel no kinship for the people who were here before , why come back ?
Nikolas : Grandmother , you ve been trying to manipulate me since the day I was born , using me as a pawn in this endless war that you have with Luke . But I m telling you right now , it s done . It s over .
Helena : I never pawned you .
Nikolas : You know what ? Now that you mention it , you re right . You did nt . I was more like a Trojan horse , per se . Yes ? Raised to hate the Spencers . And then , you served me up to them as this savior , the donor that was sent to save his sister s life . And that just proves how patient and opportunistic you can be .
Helena : I pride myself in paying attention , and Lulu has led a very full life , thanks to my efforts .
Lulu : Oh . This is where you expect gratitude ?
Helena : I do nt expect much from you at all , and neither does your father , for that matter . No , Luke dedicated his efforts to Lucky . And what a disappointment that turned out to be .
Elizabeth : Lucky knows what happened in the OR was an accident . If I fall , he wo nt think the same thing .
Siobhan : It s amazing how Lucky defends you , how he s just willing to give you the benefit of the doubt , even after sleeping with his brother and lying about Aiden s paternity .
Elizabeth : I made mistakes . So did he .
Siobhan : Oh , that was glib and without responsibility . Do you care about Lucky ?
Elizabeth : What kind of question is that ?
Siobhan : A simple one . I think I have a right to an honest answer .
Elizabeth : Of course I care about him . I always will . We have children together .
Siobhan : That s what I m having a hard time wrapping my head around . You have three children with three different men , and yet , Lucky has loved them all like his own . He s been a surrogate father , a port in a storm , a strong , steady shoulder whenever you needed him to be -- on all accounts , a decent man . And yet , when the shoe is on the other foot , and Lucky s in need of help , you re turning a blind eye , acting as if you do nt care that he s headed for trouble .
Elizabeth : He knows what he s doing .
Siobhan : Lucky is a recovering addict , and you should try to keep him from backsliding instead of giving him a hand over the edge .
Elizabeth : You were nt there when Lucky was stealing pills and getting high . I lived it , so do nt you dare lecture me on what Lucky needs .
Shawn : I do nt think much of Jax , especially after the way he treated you . But there s no doubt in my mind how he feels about Josslyn . He ll make sure she knows it , too .
Carly : Yeah . Phone calls does nt replace Daddy tucking you in . It just does nt . I just do nt know how this happens , you know . Nothing is ever easy for me . It s always so complicated .
Shawn : Ok . Ok . Stop . You re a good mom . Do nt you go doubting that .
Carly : Maybe I just want better for your kids . It s really all it is . I grew up angry -- angry that my dad took off and my mom did nt want me . You know , I was adopted , and in eighth grade , when you re 14 , the why does nt really matter . And Bobbie -- I mean , she just became one more person that did nt want me . And I promised myself that when I grew up , and if I was lucky enough to have a family , my kids were going to know they were loved , and I was going to fight like hell to keep them .
Shawn : Well , there s something to be said for caring that much .
Shawn : Josslyn is here -- healthy , happy .
Carly : Up way past her bedtime .
Shawn : You know , I should nt keep you .
Carly : Oh , ca nt you stay a little longer ?
Josslyn : Mom .
Carly : Oh . Even Josslyn wants you to stay . I ll be right back . Hey . Come on . Come on , you .
Olivia : Oh ! [ Laughs ]
Olivia : I thought I told you not to bring anything .
Steve : Well , my grandfather told me if I really , really liked a girl , never , ever show up for a date empty - handed .
Olivia : Well , he was a smart man . Mmm . These will get you through the door every time . So , may I ask , approximately how old were you when your grandfather imparted this wisdom to you about girls ? Not that I mind being called one .
Steve : 13 . I had a mad crush on Vickie Bryant . She was this blonde goddess who lived across the street . Took me months to work up the courage to ask her to the school dance .
Olivia : So of course , you called your grandfather for advice ?
Steve : I ll have you know , my grandfather snatched up the most beautiful nurse in the hospital . They were married for over 30 years . So I figured he knew a thing or two .
Olivia : So how d it go with the blonde Goddess Vickie ?
Steve : [ Chuckles ] We went to the dance . I ended up getting a kiss by the end of the night . So , I ve been bringing flowers to girls ever since .
Olivia : Thank you . They are absolutely beautiful .
Steve : So are you . Grandpa .
Olivia : I can see why your grandma fell so hard . The guy was a smooth operator .
Steve : I got lucky . I learned from the best .
Olivia : Yeah ?
Steve : Yeah .
Olivia : Wait a minute . You re not going to save the kiss till the end of the night ?
Steve : You got to break convention sometime .
Olivia : So , what d your grandpa teach you about fixing air conditioners ?
Shawn : Josslyn go back to sleep ?
Carly : Yeah . She was a little cranky . [ Laughs ] Kind of like her mom . But she went back to sleep .
Shawn : Good thing , cause this guy looks like he could use a night off .
Carly : You found Rufus .
Shawn : Rufus ?
Carly : Oh , my gosh . He s missing an eye , half his stuffing . This guy has been sewn back together more times than I can count . Oh . Morgan carried him around everywhere we went . He has nt played with him in years , but he refuses to give him up .
Shawn : Yeah . It s cause they ve been through too much together .
Carly : Now , Josslyn is the proud owner of this scruffy puppy . [ Laughs ]
Shawn : You know , when I was in Afghanistan , there was this dog -- just mangy as all get - out . It used to follow us around in the village when we d go on patrol . And he was looking for food , but he did nt want to get too close . Now , it took a few weeks , but I was finally able to get him to eat some jerky out of my hand .
Carly : Oh , and he became your best friend ?
Shawn : Yeah .
Shawn : After that , he d come right up , even left me pet him , as long as I had something to offer in return .
Carly : What was his name ?
Shawn : He never had one . The colonel did nt want us getting too attached . But I tell you , there was something about that dog . It did nt matter that he was missing clumps of fur and needing a bath . Hey , we all did . Just knowing he d be there waiting to have his ears rubbed gave me something to look forward to , a reason to keep going when things got to be too much over there . I guess that sounds kind of crazy .
Carly : No . Sounds like you needed your dog as much as Morgan needed this one .
Shawn : Did nt realize how much until one day , we were out on patrol , and we found the dog covered up in blood . His ears had been nicked off .
Carly : That s terrible . Who d do something like that ?
Shawn : One of the locals . They did nt want us there and sure as hell did nt want to see us happy , so they came after what we cared about the most .
Carly : Ohh .
Elizabeth : It s so easy for you to talk about grief and pain and addiction , but you never experienced it with Lucky like I have . You ve never come home and found your house ransacked with all your belongings on the floor , and you wonder , did I get robbed ? And then , you realize , no , it s just Lucky looking for something to pawn to get his next fix . That s how strong a hold these pills had on him .
Siobhan : Knowing that , having lived it , how can you possibly think that Lucky would nt be tempted by working this case ?
Elizabeth : You know , it says a lot that you think Lucky can be so easily led astray . Or maybe that s just your insecurities talking . Whatever it is , it s painfully clear what your relationship is really all about . Lucky loves to save people , and you are just his newest cause .
Siobhan : Oh , please . You ve had the whole market cornered on the damsel in distress bit for years .
Elizabeth : I ve depended on him for too long . But now , I am standing on my own two feet .
Siobhan : [ Scoffs ] Well , considering I just found you sobbing on the floor of the supply closet , I d say that whole standing on your own bit , it really is nt going over so well . Pull yourself together , or we ll both lose Lucky-- maybe for good .
Nikolas : I wo nt tolerate any more attempts to pit the people I love against each other .
Helena : I was simply stating a fact . Clearly , Luke favors his son over his daughter , as it s been through the centuries . Men want an heir , a namesake , someone to carry on their bloodline . But oh , if the first child is born , and it s a boy , as in Lucky s case , the subsequent child is cast aside . Poor Lulu did nt have a chance . Take our family , for instance . Now , Stavros was the chosen one . And Stefan ? A bitter disappointment , to say the least .
Nikolas : You pitted them against each other , the same way you intended Lucky and I to be , brother against brother .
Helena : There s nothing wrong with competition within a family . No , it stimulates everyone to raise their game .
Lulu : This is nt a game . This is his life .
Nikolas : You dropped me in the middle of the Spencers , ok ? And it became a constant reminder of the time that my mother spent here . And you knew how Luke would react to that , and you were hoping that I would take that hostility , and then take the torch and keep the Cassadine - Spencer war alive for generations to come . But you were wrong .
Helena : Is that so ?
Nikolas : I want nothing to do with your ignorant feud , or with this family .
Helena : Oh , Nikolas . Nikolas , you have to be who you are -- a Cassadine , made in the image of Mikkos and Stavros . Now , their blood runs through your veins . It s time to embrace it .
Nikolas : Is it ? Careful what you wish for .
Olivia : Ok . I think this ought to do it . Ahh .
Steve : Where d you learn to do all this ?
Olivia : Oh , my family fixes cars . My brothers had their own auto garage . They used to specialize in specialized cars , taking them apart , putting them back together . I paid attention .
Steve : You parlayed it to air conditioner repair ?
Olivia : Well , a compressor s a compressor , whether you got it mounted in a car or strapped to a wall unit .
Steve : Wow .
Olivia : What ?
Steve : Just when I think I had you figured out , you surprise me .
Olivia : Well , I m glad to hear it . I d hate to see you get bored and start bringing flowers to somebody else .
Steve : I can think of a lot of words to describe you . Boring is not one of them .
Olivia : Oh . I like this game . Let s hear some of those words . And you ca nt use beautiful , cause that s your grandpa s . That would be cheating .
Steve : Strong .
Olivia : It s the Pilates .
Steve : In body and spirit .
Olivia : [ Laughs ] Mmm .
Steve : It takes someone with a lot of strength to raise a son on their own .
Olivia : You know what ? Dante was a good kid . I just got lucky .
Steve : Scrappy .
Olivia : What the hell does that mean ?
Steve : I ve seen you and Kate go at it enough times to know I would nt want to be stuck in the middle .
Olivia : You know , she s family , ok ? We love each other . She knows that , at the end of the day , I would always have her back .
Steve : And that brings me to loyal . You stick behind those you care about no matter what .
Olivia : You know what , doc ?
Steve : Mmm ?
Olivia : You keep up with the compliments , I might just keep letting you bring me flowers .
Steve : I hope so . I d hate to think I wasted all of grandpa s good stuff .
Carly : I ca nt imagine what it was like for you over there .
Shawn : No , you ca nt . Plenty of people have tried , though . They make movies about war , spending tons of money on sets and special effects to make the audience feel like they re living it , but until you ve actually been pinned down in an ambush , bullets flying all over while you pray to God not to take one to the head , you ca nt even begin to understand what it s like .
Carly : I ve been scared , and I ve been afraid that I d never see my family before .
Shawn : Then multiply that fear by 20 . That s how many men I had with me . When one got shot , it was like I took the bullet myself .
Carly : How did you deal with it ?
Shawn : I m still dealing with it .
Carly : Did therapy help ?
Shawn : Yeah , until the next time I closed my eyes . Then , I was right back in the thick of it . But hey , that s life , right ? We ve all got our crosses to bear .
Nikolas : This house always felt like a prison to me -- cold , imposing , self- possessed , a lot like the people who lived here . And then , I moved to Port Charles , met my mother , and I saw how warm and loving she was towards everyone . And that s when I understood why my father was so obsessed with keeping her here . It s cause she was a breath of fresh air in an otherwise dank and suffocating environment .
Helena : Laura was an insipid woman who brought about the ruin of far too many . Stavros was only the first . Poor Luke was saddled with a life in suburbia , stripped of everything that was interesting . It took many years , but he finally freed himself . And I , for one , could nt be happier .
Lulu : Of course you are . He s looking to self - destruct . And what better way than with you ?
Nikolas : Yeah . You and Luke have this -- well , it s sick . This sick duet with each other that s been going on for decades with no thought of who gets hurt in the wake .
Helena : I would never hurt you .
Nikolas : Really . Well , I have evidence to the contrary , grandmother . For the last year of my life , I thought that I was Aiden s father . And as it turns out , lucky might be his father . That s hurt . That s real hurt . And I m asking you , was that your plan all along , to switch the paternity tests ? To have me raise a Spencer child in some ultimate act of revenge ?
Helena : You are the very image of your father , right down to Stavros strong jaw . And yet , it s Stefan s influence that shines through . Your uncle was weak , Nikolas , and it ultimately destroyed him . Do nt let that happen to you .
Lulu : Lucky called me after you left , said that you were nt coming back .
Nikolas : That s right . I apologize to you for not saying good - bye , but I really felt pressed to leave .
Lulu : I understand that you re hurting , but running away is nt going to solve anything . I mean , look at my dad . He s taken off to avoid dealing with pain . What does that solve ?
Nikolas : You re probably right . I m just -- right now , I m trying to do right by Aiden . I need to be a better father to him than I have been to Spencer , ok ? What I m trying to say is look around . Look at where I m from . You just witnessed who I m from . Aiden is better off .
Lulu : Do you still believe that you could be his father ?
Nikolas : I do nt know , Lulu . I just do nt know .
Lulu : Well , you could do another DNA test .
Nikolas : No , I ca nt .
Lulu : If you re worried about Helena , there are ways--
Nikolas : Lucky needs to believe that he s Aiden s father right now . I ca nt be the reason he loses another son .
Monica : Is Steve still here ?
Elizabeth : No . He s gone for the evening . Do you want me to page him ?
Monica : No . That wo nt be necessary . I just sort of wanted to apologize . I pride myself on being a professional , but there are just some times when patients get a little too close for comfort .
Elizabeth : Steven understands . And believe me , so do I. It s been -- it s been four months since Jakey passed away , and I still ca nt set foot into pediatrics . It just puts me right back to the night of the accident .
Monica : I wish I d gotten to know my grandchild . I know . It does nt matter how I know . I just do .
Elizabeth : Dr. Quartermaine .
Monica : Elizabeth , I am a widow , and I ve lost Emily , I ve lost AJ . Jason is my only surviving child . Now , you tell me , if you were me , would nt you want to know if you had another grandchild ?
Elizabeth : I do nt know what to say .
Monica : Well , do nt say anything . Do nt . Just listen .
Steve : [ Laughs ] Golly . I guess women really can do it all .
Steve : Raise kids , run hospitals , fix air conditioners . I guess I have to face the sad truth -- men are becoming obsolete .
Olivia : You know what ?
Steve : Mmm ?
Olivia : There s still one thing that I need a man for .
Steve : Yeah ? What ?
Olivia : Bugs . [ Chuckles ] Yes . I am terrified of bugs . I refuse to kill them , and I wo nt put them out the window , so -- eh . They make my skin crawl .
Steve : So if your apartment was overrun by roaches--
Olivia : I would move . Now , if there was just one roach in the apartment , you would be the lucky first person that I would call .
Steve : Well , now that I m not bogged down by budgets and schedules and staff meetings , I have plenty of time to come battle bugs .
Olivia : Now , be honest . Are you missing your position as Chief of Staff ?
Steve : Well , no one who goes to med school hopes he s going to end up pushing paper . And in that job , you definitely get buried in it . I think Robin is quickly realizing that . I m just afraid she s gotten in over her head .
Olivia : You really think she ca nt cut it , or are you just afraid to break up the boys club ?
Steve : I thought you knew me better than that .
Olivia : I only know what you tell me , and frankly , that s not really very much . I m the one that does all the talking .
Steve : Oh , no .
Olivia : What ?
Steve : I told you about Vickie Bryant , my big crush , all right ?
Olivia : So I know that you like blondes .
Steve : And brunettes and redheads .
Olivia : Ok . So I know that I can feel free to dye my hair at any time . I know that you respect your elders .
Steve : Mm - hmm . Mmm . Grandpa gave me good advice .
Olivia : And I know about your creepy fetish with people with poles sticking through them .
Steve : I never said fetish . I said surgery was sexier than cleaning up a burst appendix .
Olivia : Neither one of which sounds very appealing to me , which , I guess , is why I m not a doctor -- I mean , that and about a dozen years of higher education . But what do you like most about your job ?
Steve : Um ... well , I guess I never know what s going to be coming through the doors , at least in the ER . I ran the trauma unit in Memphis for a bunch of years , and not a chance of getting bored there .
Olivia : So why did you leave ?
Steve : Ahem . The air s working .
Olivia : And it did nt cost us a dime to fix it .
Steve : Um , I d better go close your windows , or it s going to end up costing you thousands of dimes .
Monica : I was going through some old photos , and I found one of Jason when he would have been about Jake s age . That blonde hair and that big smile .
Elizabeth : I wish you had the chance to get to know Jake . Jason and I just felt that he would be safer being raised by Lucky .
Monica : Yes . Well , Jason does nt really understand the power of family connections . But you do . You do , and you should have told me .
Elizabeth : I just did nt feel like it was my place . I hope you know , though , that he was such a happy little boy , and he was so loved by everyone .
Monica : Well , I wish I could say that that makes a difference . But you see , the only way I m going to know Jake is just now through a memory .
Elizabeth : Monica .
Monica : Listen . The good thing for you is that you do have two other children to take care of . Do nt let Jake s death break you , and do nt let fear or selfishness destroy their lives , ok ?
Siobhan : Glad you re home .
Lucky : Yeah . You afraid I d be out getting high somewhere ?
Siobhan : This is nt a joke , Lucky .
Lucky : Well , at least we agree on something .
Siobhan : Look , I m sorry if you feel like I overstepped with Ethan . I just feel like I have a right to be concerned . I m your wife .
Lucky : And I m a cop . If I need to meet up with a dealer to get information , then that s what I m going to do .
Siobhan : You did nt have to take this case .
Lucky : Maybe I wanted to .
Siobhan : To prove that you re better than your father ? You already have by getting help for your addiction .
Lucky : Siobhan , this has nothing to do with my father , or Elizabeth , or anyone else .
Siobhan : Do you honestly think that you can be around pills and not be tempted ?
Lucky : I wish everyone would stop treating me like a junkie . I m clean . And I plan to stay that way .
Steve : You know , that goddess title I gave to Vickie Bryant some years ago ?
Olivia : Uh - huh ?
Steve : It s yours , because any woman who can make me feel this good deserves it .
Olivia : Does nt take much to please you , does it ?
Steve : Not in a heat wave like this .
Olivia : So wait a minute . So wait a minute . What happens -- what happens when the temperature breaks ? Am I just going to be stripped of my title , like some kind of a disgraced pageant queen or something ? Hmm ?
Steve : You know what ? You can keep the title .
Olivia : Yeah ?
Steve : But the clothes are definitely going to have to come off .
Olivia : Why wait ?
Shawn : Well , I should get on the road before it gets too late .
Carly : Where are you going ?
Shawn : That s what I wanted to tell you . D.C. I ve got a lead on a job .
Carly : Oh . Came to say good - bye ?
Shawn : And to see how things played out in court , make sure you re ok .
Carly : I m ok . I do nt think Jax is ok . I think he s upset that he s not with his daughter .
Shawn : Do me a favor . Keep your guard up . I do nt see Jax letting this go .
Carly : I think I m fine .
Shawn : Are you sure ?
Carly : Good lucky with your job .
Shawn : Well , thank you . You stood up for me .
Carly : You deserved it . Thank you . Thank you for Josslyn .
Shawn : May want to close those windows . Looks like a storm s coming -- bad one . Take care of yourself , Carly .
Jax : It s Jax . I need the jet ready to go as soon as possible . I ll be there in 30 minutes .

### Dialogue:
Nick : Thank you . So are you sure you re up for this ? You only had a couple hours sleep on the plane .
Sharon : No , I m fine . I just hope Mr. Mitsukoshi ...
Nick : Thank you .
Sharon : Gets here soon . I want to do this as quickly as possible and get home to Faith .
Nick : Yeah , I m missing my girls , too .
Sharon : Well , at least Summer is with her mother . By the way , how did Phyllis react when , um , you told her that we were going to Japan together ?
Nick : Unfortunately , she had already heard from Adam .
Sharon : Oh , I m sure that made the news that much harder to swallow .
Nick : You would think , but surprisingly , she ... seemed fine with it .
Phyllis : What ? What ? ( Sighs )
Avery : If you re busy , I ll came back .
Phyllis : No , it s okay . Come in .
Avery : ( Sighs )
Phyllis : What -- what-- what do you need ?
Avery : I have news ... ( Sighs ) About Lucy .
Adam : I d say Good Morning , but I m guessing it is nt .
Chelsea : If you re looking for a Thank You for helping me find my old man , I really--
Adam : No , I just wanted to see how you re doing . I called you a few times this morning .
Chelsea : Yeah , you and my mother . You would think , after ten unreturned messages , you would get the point .
Adam : You have nt talked to her , either ?
Chelsea : After she completely bailed on me last night ? ( Scoffs ) Left me hanging , so that Mr. Bardwell could tell the whole world that he s not my father . It was mortifying .
Adam : Maybe she could tell you whether or not he s lying .
Chelsea : It does nt matter . He made it very clear that even if he is my sperm donor , he wants nothing to do with me .
Jeff : I told you last night , I told you this morning , and I m telling you right now ... ( Sighs ) There s no way Chelsea Lawson s my daughter .
Gloria : Fine . Let s have a D.N.A. test and prove it .
Jeff : And waste good money ? There s nobody to back up what the kid s saying .
Gloria : Oh , Jeffrey . Yeah . Well , her mother sure bolted out when the girl confronted you .
Jeff : Well , there you are . Do nt you think , if there were any truth to this matter , she would have stuck around ?
Gloria : Yeah , yeah . You know what ? I wish she had , cause I got a few questions I d like to ask Anita myself .
Anita : Chelsea , Baby , I know you re upset with me for running out last night , but ... oh , we just-- we need to talk . Sweetie , please call me . ( Tsks ) If you would have just kept your mouth shut till I figured out how to turn this into a lotto jackpot , it would have been--
Anita : Oh , Boy .
Michael : ( Chuckles ) Oh ! What s the rush , Ms. Lawson ?
Anita : I have work to do .
Lauren : Oh , the lunch crowd wo nt be here for a while .
Anita : Listen , this situation is between Jeffrey , Chelsea , and me .
Michael : Tragically , Jeffrey s married to my mom .
Anita : Oh , then talk to her .
Michael : Oh . Yes , hello yes , yes , ye-- good . Thank you . Call me as soon as you get any results . All right , thanks .
Lauren : Was that the D.N.A. lab ?
Michael : Well , they got the sample I sent of Jeffrey s hair , and Victoria just dropped off the sample from Chelsea s hairbrush .
Lauren : Okay , so how soon ?
Michael : We should know if Jeffrey is Chelsea s dad by today .
Lauren : Great , so one problem attacked , and now onward to Carmine .
Eden : Now do you think Carmine was serious about stealing Chloe ?
Daniel : I think that Carmine just thought that Kevin stole Angelina from him . You know , his pride was hurt , so he came in here , he wanted to flex his muscle a little bit . Guy s probably back in Jersey by now .
Eden : Or not .
Chloe : Do you -- did you see that guy in the bookstore ? He looked exactly like Carmine .
Kevin : ( Scoffs ) Yeah , if Carmine were 6 inches shorter and 20 years older .
Chloe : You re blind .
Kevin : Chloe , Carmine is not here .
Chloe : Well , it does nt mean that he s not a threat . Were you listening yesterday ?
Kevin : ( Laughs ) Yes . You know what I heard ? I heard Mrs. C. say , I now pronounce you husband and wife .
Chloe : ( Sighs )
Kevin : That s what I m focused on-- us being married , us going on our honeymoon , and getting to do husband and wife things together on our honeymoon .
Chloe : Okay , well , maybe you can forget that our happiness was threatened , no mention my life , but me , not so much .
Kevin : I survived being shot at , being chased by the mob , and nearly drowning in Long Island Sound-- twice , not to mention being married to Angelina .
Chloe : ( Sighs )
Kevin : I am not gon na let some jerk from New Jersey ruin our happiness , okay ?
Chloe : Okay .
Kevin : Good .
Chloe : But I am--
Kevin : Come here .
Chloe : Mm . Mm , I still think that--
Kevin : Okay , look , I need you to stop talking . I want you to trust me when I say to you that Carmine is not a threat , okay ?
Chloe : Okay .
Kevin : Here , take these , listen to some music , and chill out , okay ?
Chloe : Okay , I ll try .
Kevin : Good . Forget about Carmine . All I want you thinking about is the amazingly awesome honeymoon that we are about to have , far away from Genoa City , far away from everything and everyone that we know . It s gon na be great .
Gloria : All right , so answer me this . Do you know Chelsea s mother ?
Jeff : Anita ? Yes , of course I do . She s been waiting tables at Gloworm .
Gloria : Oh , no , no , no , no . Before Gloworm , way in the past .
Jeff : Well ... ( Sighs ) I ve been having a lot of trouble with my memory .
Gloria : Do nt you start with me . Your memory came back .
Jeff : I remember you ...
Gloria : Hmm .
Jeff : Us ...
Gloria : Mm - hmm .
Jeff : And that weekend in Tijuana .
Gloria : ( Laughs ) But do you remember sex ... with Anita ...
Jeff : Mnh .
Gloria : Fathering a child ? Ring any bells ?
Jeff : Not a single chime .
Gloria : Oh , Jeffrey .
Jeff : Look , do you trust me ?
Gloria : ( Chuckles )
Jeff : All right , let me rephrase that . Trust me , by the time we get back from our honeymoon , this whole thing will have blown over .
Phyllis : So what-- what s the news about Lucy ?
Avery : Well , Daniel s parental rights hearing has been set for tomorrow .
Phyllis : Okay . Oh , good , good . Uh , have you told him ?
Avery : No , Michael s telling him now . Once the rights are reinstated , we can file for custody .
Phyllis : Not yet . If they re reinstated .
Avery : Phyllis , this is good news .
Phyllis : We do nt know it s -- if it s good news . We have a long road . A lot could go wrong . You do nt know if it s really good news .
Avery : Okay , that s true , but that s not what s bothering you .
Phyllis : Wait , what , you read my mind now ?
Avery : I can read that something s not right .
Phyllis : Well , then you should be able to read that nothing is wrong with me .
Avery : I ... you know , there was a time when we could tell each other everything .
Phyllis : No , there was nt . I feel really silly . I think it s stupid and petty . I should be thinking about my son and Lucy , and ...
Avery : Phyllis , what is it ?
Phyllis : It s Nick .
Nick : So what do you think of the prospectus that I had marketing and R & D draw up ?
Sharon : It s fine .
Nick : It s Fine ? It s fine ? I mean , that is magic and gold and impressive as hell . What are you talking about ?
Sharon : I know . I was there when we came up with it , remember ?
Nick : Yeah , so you should be a little more enthusiastic .
Sharon : Oh , I m -- I m enthusiastic . I just -- I do nt necessarily think that graphs and numbers is what is going to sway Mr. Mitsukoshi .
Nick : The guy s old - school . He loves facts and figures .
Sharon : He also loves sake and Chinese architecture . You know , he s really into Weiwei .
Nick : Oh , his designs or politics ?
Sharon : Both .
Nick : Okay , so you think plying an important contact with alcohol and charming him is the way to land a contract ?
Sharon : I think that knowing who you re dealing with is as important as how you deal with them .
Nick : Spoken from the person with zero negotiating experience . Look , I think you should follow my lead on this one , okay ? This is our only shot with him , and if we make this fly , we can blow Beauty of Nature and Jabot out of the water this coming year .
Sharon : I know . Here he comes .
Nick : Mr. Mitsukoshi . Thank you very much for meeting with us .
Mitsukoshi : When you mentioned Sharon would be with you , I cleared my calendar .
Sharon : Well , it s very nice to see you again , too .
Mitsukoshi : Did you know Weiwei is out of prison ?
Sharon : Yes , and his work is more vibrant and inspiring than ever .
Nick : Well , we are very anxious to show you our plans for Newman s new cosmetics line .
Mitsukoshi : I am anxious to hear . Perhaps Sharon could show me a woman s perspective on what you ve been working on , and we can catch up .
Nick : Uh , yes . Uh , that s a great idea . Of course .
Mitsukoshi : There is a private room in the back .
Sharon : Lead the way .
Nick : ( Chuckles )
Eden : Well , too bad it is nt .
Daniel : Think you should cut the guy some slack . He had his heart broken , and crazy things goes on when that happens .
Eden : How do you know he is doing crazy things ?
Daniel : Cause he s a guy . We get over things a lot quicker than women do .
Eden : Well , I m just worried about Kevin . I mean , he and Chloe are finally married . I do nt want anything to ruin that .
Daniel : You sure that s all ?
Michael : Hey , Buddy . Hey , Sis . Um , can I talk to you out on the patio ?
Daniel : Yeah , sure .
Lauren : Carmine . Even his name means trouble .
Eden : Finally , somebody gets that .
Lauren : Exactly . What do you say we both go over and talk to him for a bit ?
Eden : I m due for a break .
Lauren : Excellent . Come on .
Lauren : Hello , Carmine . Do you have a minute ?
Carmine : For you two , I got five .
Michael : Your parental rights hearing has been set for tomorrow .
Daniel : Tomorrow ? Wow . I did nt realize it was gon na be so soon . Are you , um ... I guess , are we ready for that ?
Michael : Hmm . You tell me . Have you changed your mind about wanting custody of your daughter ?
Chloe : No way ! ( Gasps )
Kevin : What ? What ?
Chloe : You have Angelina s song on here , hmm ?
Kevin : She must have downloaded it .
Chloe : ( Scoffs ) I can not get away from her and these Jersey jerks . It s like , wherever we go , they just show up . They follow us . They re trying to ruin our lives .
Kevin : No , they re not .
Chloe : Angelo and Angelina finally leave , and then , bam ! Carmine shows up , tall , dark , probably packing , threatening to kill me or steal me , whatever .
Kevin : And I told you , I was nt gon na let that happen .
Chloe : ( Scoffs ) You are not going to be able to take on Carmine .
Kevin : You have a thing for him , do nt you ?
Chloe : Who ?
Kevin : Who ? Carmine . You like that he s packing . It turns you on .
Chloe : ( Laughs ) What ?
Kevin : Yeah , I mean , come on . He s totally your type-- tall , dark , bad boy . I bet the minute he walked into Gloworm , you said to yourself , I got ta get me a piece of that .
Chloe : Have you lost your mind ?
Kevin : And that s why you re talkin all this trash . It s a cover , so that I wo nt suspect anything .
Chloe : ( Scoffs ) Baby ...
Kevin : Mm - hmm .
Chloe : All I want is you , now and forever .
Kevin : ( Laughs ) You swear ?
Chloe : Yes , I swear !
Kevin : Okay , good . Then we re good , because the only way he could steal you from me is if you wanted to be stolen . Now I need you to not say his name even one more time , and just start enjoying your honeymoon with me .
Chloe : Okay .
Gloria : Okay , Mr. Bardwell , if you do nt want to talk to me , I ll go talk to the attendant , and maybe she ll switch my seat to one that s far , far away from you .
Kevin : Please tell me that s not my mother .
Gloria : Kevin ? Kevin , I ca nt believe this !
Chloe : It s your mother .
Jeff : Do nt be mad , love nugget .
Gloria : ( Laughing )
Jeff : Oh , hey .
Kevin : I--
Jeff : You guys on the same flight ?
Kevin : I heard you say last night that you got an internet deal , I thought you said on a trip to Borneo .
Gloria : I said to Reno . Is that where you two are going ?
Kevin : No .
Chloe : Yes .
Gloria : ( Gasps )
Chloe : Mm , he found it last night . It s probably the same deal .
Gloria : I ca nt believe this ! Well , the four of us can go to the casinos , see some shows . We ll get massages while the boys hit the golf course . This is fantastic !
Adam : I should have found out a little bit more about Bardwell before I took you to meet him .
Chelsea : No . You tried to warn me that reality is light - years away from what you should expect .
Adam : Yeah , but ... it still hurts , though .
Chelsea : I m used to being disappointed . Besides , I mean , truthfully , what did I really even want from Mr. Bardwell anyway , you know ?
Adam : Well , you wanted to-- you want him to know who you are , to know what you --what you like , what you do nt like , your favorite color , your favorite ice cream , just the normal stuff .
Chelsea : But he does nt know that about me . He does nt know any of that , and he does nt want to . ( Sighs ( Sniffles )
Adam : I m sorry .
Chelsea : It s fine . ( Sighs ) It s fine . It s not your fault that my dad s a jerk . ( Chuckles ) ( Sniffles )
Adam : It s ironic .
Chelsea : What is ?
Adam : Well , I m not very well known for doing nice things for people . It s quite the opposite , actually , but , uh ... in this case , I really was , uh , hoping this would go well for you .
Chelsea : You want to hear something stupid ? So was I. ( Chuckles )
Michael : Daniel . Are you having second thoughts ?
Daniel : I do nt want Daisy raising Lucy , if that s what you re asking .
Michael : I m asking if your heart is in this because it does nt seem like it is .
Daniel : ( Sighs ) I never wanted to be a dad , Michael .
Michael : I know it . Just keep your voice down right now .
Daniel : Why , why ? It s not a secret . I divorced Amber because she wanted kids , and I did nt want them . Everybody knows that .
Michael : Nobody forced you to do this .
Daniel : ( Sighs ) I guess I m just trying to do the right thing for my daughter . That s all .
Michael : You have to convince the judge that you want this .
Daniel : You think I do nt know that ?
Michael : All right , okay . Let s go over what you re going to say in court .
Daniel : Really ? We ve already done that , like , a thousand times . Can we not ?
Michael : What you say and how you say it is going to have a huge impact on the judge s decision .
Daniel : Yes , I know , Michael . You ve already told me that , and so has my mom , and so has Avery , and I wish you d all just get off my back .
Michael : Okay , Daniel . Daniel ! You listen to me . If you screw this up in court tomorrow , you may never get Lucy away from Daisy .
Lauren : Have you talked to Angelina ?
Carmine : Not since Kevin convinced he to run off with him .
Eden : Wait , Kevin told you last night , it was nt his idea for them to leave town together .
Carmine : No , but they did , did nt they ?
Eden : Well , it was a setup . I mean , Angelina tricked Kevin , told him she was pregnant with your baby . Kevin never stole her or -- or kidnapped her or -- or did anything to or -- or with -- or with her .
Carmine : He married her .
Eden : Only because Angelo threatened to kill him , and -- and Kevin explained all this last night .
Lauren : Yeah , he loves Chloe .
Eden : And Chloe loves him . They were meant to be together .
Carmine : So were Angie and me .
Eden : Well , then go after her . I mean , she and Angelo went to Los Angeles . Why do nt you go after her , Carmine ?
Gloria : ( Sighs )
Chloe : I mean , seriously , how long does it take to clean an airplane ?
Gloria : ( Chuckles ) You re worried , are nt you ?
Chloe : About getting to Reno ?
Gloria : About Carmine .
Chloe : Well , jilted boyfriend shows up at your wedding and threatens to steal you from your new husband . Pretty out there , even for Kevin and me .
Gloria : Mm - hmm . Kevin wo nt let that creep harm you .
Chloe : Hmm . That s what he says .
Gloria : And if Carmine does give either of you any trouble , you call me ... ( Whispering ) Because I can probably call in a favor or two with Angelo .
Chloe : That s sweet . You d call a mob hit for me .
Gloria : ( Normal voice ) Of course I would . You re like a daughter to me , Chloe .
Chloe : So what s up with Jeff and his daughter ?
Gloria : Ugh . He says that there s no way that Chelsea can be his daughter .
Chloe : Do you believe him ?
Gloria : Hmm . The whole thing s just so out there , even for me and Jeffrey . You know , I hired Anita . I befriended her when nobody else would , and then her daughter shows up and claims that Jeffrey s her dad . Come on . If this is true ? Ooh .
Chloe : Well , Anita s no friend . What are you gon na do ?
Gloria : What can I do ?
Chloe : Well , you can start by firing her .
Kevin : What could be worse than your mom showing up on your honeymoon ?
Jeff : Your long - lost daughter dropping in on your wedding .
Kevin : Is she ?
Jeff : What ?
Kevin : Your long - lost daughter ?
Jeff : No , of course not . I m just saying . Stranger shows up at your wedding , claims to be your kid-- way worse than having to go to the all - you - can - eat buffet with your mom .
Kevin : You better not hurt my mom again .
Jeff : Oh , come on , do nt you have enough to worry about here ?
Kevin : Carmine s not gon na be a problem .
Jeff : Well , then there you are . We re all good . You got no problems , Glo and I are swell , and we re all going on a honeymoon together .
Kevin : Great .
Sharon : Well , thank you so much for meeting us tonight . We know how busy you are .
Mitsukoshi : I m sorry I do nt have more time to talk to both of you .
Sharon : No , we understand . Sayonara .
Mitsukoshi : Sayonara . Nicholas , please give my regards to your father .
Nick : I will . Thank you . What the hell just happened ? Thank you . So ... that s it ? We flew halfway around the world , you met with Mitsukoshi alone for an hour , and now we re going home empty - handed ?
Sharon : Yeah , except for that last part .
Nick : What do you mean ?
Sharon : Um , we ... got the contract .
Nick : What ? You mean , he -- are you--
Sharon : He wants to sell Newman s new line in his department stores exclusively .
Nick : You are kidding .
Sharon : I - I told him about all of our projected products . I told him about our philosophy , the team we re assembling , but what really sold him was the marketing strategy that we developed together .
Nick : ( Sighs ) I - I mean-- I - I ca nt believe this . I can-- Mitsukoshi would be a fool to go with anyone other than Newman . Obviously , you convinced him of that .
Sharon : We did this . You set up the meeting . I sold him our ideas .
Nick : Well , we make quite a team .
Sharon : Yeah , we do .
Avery : So Nick and Sharon went to Japan together ?
Phyllis : Mm - hmm , on business . ( Sighs ) ( Clears throat ) Should I take , um , Summer to Chicago for spring break ?
Avery : Do you not believe Nick ?
Phyllis : It s so beautiful there during this time of year . Summer loves fish .
Avery : Well , you could take Nick and make a family trip out of it .
Phyllis : No , I m not taking Nick . He has obligations-- his work , Faith--
Avery : Sharon .
Phyllis : Sharon is not an obligation to Nick .
Avery : What would you call her ?
Phyllis : ( Chuckles ) Hmm ... when they re together , stuff happens .
Avery : Yeah , bad stuff .
Phyllis : That depends on how you look at it ... right ? I obsess about them ... like I m a teenager .
Avery : Look , anyone with eyes can see that Nick and Sharon have this thing .
Phyllis : Okay , thank you . I feel better .
Avery : No , but I-- what I was gon na say is that you have something , too , and it s deep and real and grown - up . He wants you .
Phyllis : Oh , yeah , he wants me . Nick wants me . I always tell myself that .
Avery : You know , I did nt end things with him because his heart was with Sharon .
Phyllis : So why are you , of all people , telling me not to give up on Nick ?
Chelsea : Hey .
Adam : O.J ...
Chelsea : Ah .
Adam : Freshly squeezed , good for you and the baby .
Chelsea : Thanks .
Adam : Do nt thank me . I m putting all of this on Billy s tab .
Chelsea : ( Laughs )
Adam : Order the most expensive breakfast you can imagine .
Chelsea : ( Laughs ) No , thank you . I m -- it s fine . I m good .
Adam : Are you ?
Chelsea : It probably seems like no big deal to you , but , um , no one s ever listened to me . It s nice . Thank you .
Adam : Not even your mother ?
Chelsea : My mother ? ( Chuckles ) The lovely woman who offered to introduce me to my father , but only if I did things her way ? ( Sighs )
Adam : What kind of mother uses her kid s own dad to blackmail her ?
Chelsea : Mine .
Adam : Huh . Well , I m sorry . Sorry you have such a crappy mom .
Chelsea : ( Laughs ) Well , yours must have been okay . I mean , look at you .
Adam : ( Laughs )
Chelsea : ( Laughs )
Adam : Look at me . No , I m pretty certain that my mom would be disappointed in the kind of person I ve become .
Chelsea : You know , I ve read all that stuff about you in Restless Style and online , but I can tell , you re not all bad .
Adam : You do nt know me . Once you do , you ll change your mind .
Daniel : I do nt know the first thing about being a dad , Michael .
Michael : Hey , you took care of Summer . You even had Lucy a little bit last year .
Daniel : ( Chuckles ) You re talking about giving a bottle or changing a diaper . You know , if I do get custody of Lucy , I m gon na be responsible for her . I m gon na be responsible for , I do nt know , everything . I mean , its one thing to mess up your own life , but somebody else s --
Michael : Every parent makes mistakes , even parents who really want children .
Daniel : I do nt know . Here I am , fighting Daisy for Lucy , hoping that Daisy does nt screw her up , and what if-- what if I m no better , huh ? What if I m worse ?
Michael : All right , listen to me . It is normal to be afraid . It is normal to have doubts . My friend , you re gon na have a lot of people around you who will help you .
Daniel : Oh , I know . I m sure I m gon na get tons of advice . But , you know , when it comes down to it , it s all on me . I do nt really know if I m ready for that .
Michael : Unless you want your daughter to stay with Daisy , I really do nt see what your other options are .
Michael : I m sorry . Excuse me .
Daniel : ( Sighs )
Michael : Oh , for crying-- ( Clears throat ) Sorry . Yes , Glo-- Glo-- y - you know-- you know what ? I thought you were on your way to Reno . I m -- I do nt think the airlines care that you re on your honeymoon . You re gon na have to wait in line like everybody-- what -- what kind of favor ? Yeah , I can take care of that . Yes , yes , I - I will do it today -- yes ! All right , bye . We need to talk more about this later , okay ?
Daisy : My lawyer told me about the hearing tomorrow .
Daniel : ( Clears throat ) I still want Lucy with me . I have nt changed my mind .
Daisy : Well , maybe there s a way we could avoid this whole custody fight .
Michael : Uh , I have to get back .
Lauren : Yeah . Yeah , I m ready .
Michael : All right , I think you probably have to get back to work , do nt you ?
Eden : Yeah , soon . See you guys later .
Michael : Yeah , later . Call me .
Carmine : ( Exhales slowly ) Wow , he s protective .
Eden : Yeah , big brothers . But I dont -- I do nt need anybody looking out for me .
Carmine : Tough girl . I like that .
Sharon : To success .
Nick : We are well on our way .
Sharon : It s been a long time since we ve worked together this well .
Nick : Yeah , it has .
Sharon : It feels good .
Nick : Yeah . ( Sighs ) I should probably call Phyllis .
Sharon : Okay . I ll freshen up .
Nick : Hey , how s it going ?
Phyllis : Um , good . I - it s late there . I m -- I m surprised you re calling me .
Nick : Yeah , we just , uh , finished our meeting .
Phyllis : Oh , how did-- how did the meeting go ?
Nick : We closed the deal .
Phyllis : You did ? That s great . Mitsukoshi is going with Newman . That s really great news .
Nick : Yeah , we are very , very excited , that s for sure . What s going on there ?
Phyllis : Um , well , I have good news of my own . Um , Daniel s parental rights hearing is tomorrow afternoon .
Nick : Wow , that s fast .
Phyllis : Yeah , yeah , it is-- it is fast . Um , are -- are-- are you coming back ? I mean , are you -- are you gon na be home in time ?
Nick : Well , we re done with , uh , our work here , so I ll try and catch the red- eye , be home in the morning .
Phyllis : That s really great . You know , Daniel could use your support , and ... honestly , so could . ( Laughs )
Nick : Okay , well , uh , see you soon .
Phyllis : Okay .
Phyllis : Nick is coming home . He ll be here in time for the hearing .
Sharon : Everything okay ?
Nick : Uh , yeah , but I got ta go home . Daniel s hearing to reinstate his parental rights is tomorrow , and I promised Phyllis I d be there .
Sharon : Oh . Well , we better get to the airport .
Nick : Yeah . I ll get the check .
Eden : I mean , think about it , Carmine-- sunshine , beaches , you , Ange-- it sounds pretty sweet , does nt it ?
Carmine : Yeah , it sounds all right .
Eden : I bet you could catch a flight out tonight .
Carmine : Where s this ?
Eden : Uh , about ten minutes from here . Why ?

Liam : Do you know how lucky i am , starting each morning like this with my beautiful , amazing wife in my arms ? You know , if it were nt for you ...
Steffy : Please do nt do that .
Liam : I ... what ?
Steffy : Just , uh , put me on a pedestal and make me sound like I m perfect .
Liam : Oh , I m sorry . Did I say you were perfect ? You hog all the sheets , you put dirty dishes in the sink . It s disgusting . And frank-- wait . Nope . Nope . That d be me . Hmm . Still , when it counts ...
Steffy : When it counts , couples do nt compound their mistakes and make even bigger ones . I never should have walked out on you . No , I - I should nt have . I really regret it . But we renewed our vows , and we re starting over . I m so happy I m mrs . Liam spencer .
Steffy : This is killing me . This never should have happened . There s nothing we can do to erase that night . Nothing ! I betrayed my husband . I betrayed my vows , my marriage .
Bill : And I m trying to make it right . I m trying to make amends with liam , unite the family .
Steffy : Okay , then , maybe --
Bill : But I m telling you , steffy , his wheels are turning .
Steffy : Maybe I should just tell liam . I can just confess everything .
Bill : No ! You can--
Steffy : I ca nt keep this from him !
Bill : You ca nt do that . We made a pact , and we re gon na keep it . Liam can not know . So we have to keep this secret between us . No one will ever know .
Sally : [ Sighs ] Is this too much ?
Coco : Hmm . Depends . Are we going back to the carnival circuit ?
Sally : Fine .
Coco : [ Chuckles ] Where are you going ?
Sally : How about these ?
Coco : It s better . What ? You re not gon na say where you re headed ?
Sally : I mean , it s really no biggie . I m just gon na drop in on liam and see for myself how he s doing .
Sally : Words ca nt express how much I appreciate you and what you have come to mean to me . I love you , liam . In an innocent way . In a beautiful way . With all of my heart . For who you are and for what you have done . And I will never meet anybody like you ever again .
Coco : Does liam know you re coming ?
Sally : No . But I will make sure that I do not run into steffy .
Coco : Yeah , well , that can complicate a lot of things if you did .
Sally : [ Scoffs ] I know . And I do nt want to do anything to upset things for them , okay ? I know that steffy s forgiven him and they re moving on from what happened .
Coco : What about you , sis ? Have you ?
Sally : I do nt want to create more problems for liam . I just ... I just need to speak to him .
Coco : You really ca nt get that guy out of your mind , can you ? You fell really hard for the guy .
Steffy : Just imagine it . Our own private island , sailing , no demands , no schedules .
Liam : So cell service ?
Steffy : I mean , we would be cut off from the rest of the world . I know it s kind of short notice , but I think we should do it .
Liam : You do nt have to convince me . I m on board . Although ... I mean , with christmas right around the corner , I know you like to be with your family . And I m actually -- I m looking forward to spending some time with my dad after everything that s happened . I know that s something you d like , right ?
Steffy : Yeah , we can , uh , talk about it later . Do nt you have to go to the office ?
Liam : Uh , well , today I m working from home . I d love it if you did , too .
Steffy : No , I - I actually have a meeting .
Liam : Hey . Steffy , you -- you okay ?
Steffy : Yeah . No , I m -- I m fine . I m fine .
Liam : Well , your hands are shaking .
Steffy : No , it s -- it s just the chills . It s nothing , really .
Liam : Are you sure about that ? Cause if it s something else ...
Steffy : Uh - huh .
Liam : Okay , come here .
Darlita : Where did sally go ?
Coco : She went to liamS.
Darlita : Why ?
Coco : They re friends .
Darlita : And possibly more ?
Coco : Excuse me ?
Darlita : I have eyes , coco . I mean , I know everyone thinks I m this dim dora .
Coco : No one thinks that .
Darlita : But I m pretty sharp when it comes to certain things , like when a girl likes a guy , only she pretends she does nt because she knows if she admitted it , let alone acted on it , she would cause all kinds of trouble . But then she gets trapped in an explosion with that guy , and something happens , something that sally could have never predicted . How am I doing so far ?
Coco : You put all this together yourself ?
Darlita : I m very intuitive . All of the women in my family are . We also read a lot of romance novels . Anyway , I m guessing this all came to a head in that explosion . Maybe sally bared her soul thinking she had nothing to lose , and liam ... liam I have nt figured out quite yet . But being the good guy that he is , I ca nt see him crossing the line with her -- oh , my god . Are you saying he and sally did cross a line ?
Coco : [ Sighs ] Okay , they -- they thought they were gon na die , so , yes , they -- they shared a few kisses .
Darlita : Really ? !
Coco : But you have to promise not to tell anyone . You have to promise me , darlita .
Darlita : Of course . This is just all so romantic . And scary all at the same time .
Coco : Yeah , for sally , mostly .
Darlita : What do you mean ?
Coco : The explosion s behind her , but her feelings for liam ... my sister just has a lot to work through .
Liam : So , to what do I owe the , uh , random drop - in ?
Sally : Uh , I hope you do nt mind me coming by .
Liam : No , no , not at all . I - I just -- how did you know I d be here and not at the office ?
Sally : Um , I called spencer . They said that you were working from home today .
Liam : Ah . Right .
Sally : Your house is incredible . Look at this view . You and , uh , steffy looked really happy on thanksgiving .
Liam : Yeah . Uh , yeah . Yeah , we are . It s actually , um , kind of surreal how understanding she was .
Sally : She really loves you .
Liam : And I betrayed that love . She forgave me , thankfully .
Steffy : I ca nt do it , bill . I ca nt keep this secret any longer .
Bill : Yes , you can . You re a strong woman . We made a pact , steffy .
Steffy : I know ! But it s wrong ! I m not being honest with my husband .
Bill : Normally I would agree , but considering the circumstances --
Steffy : I overreacted that night . At least liam told me what happened with sally . He was honest with me .
Bill : About a few kisses . Our situation is totally different .
Steffy : Yes , and there s no coming back from that . I have to lie to liam over and over and over .
Bill : All right , look , look , I know that it s hard . But just give it some time and you will see --
Steffy : What ? It s just gon na go away ? This is gon na haunt me for the rest of my life .
Bill : It ll haunt you even more knowing coming clean cost you your marriage , the man you want to spend the rest of your life with . Are you willing to take that risk ?
Steffy : [ Voice breaking ] Bill , what am I supposed to do ? [ Sniffles ] I m just gon na pretend that everything s wonderful between me and my husband .
Bill : It can be wonderful if you just let this go .
Steffy : My mind wo nt let me .
Bill : You have to try harder . We both do , for everyone s sake .
Steffy : So I m just gon na continue to lie to my husband .
Bill : To protect your marriage , our family . I do nt want to lose my son , either , steffy .
Steffy : I know . But why did nt we think about that before we did what we did ? Why did nt we stop ourselves ?
Darlita : I knew I was right . Sal s had the hots for liam all along . And she s with him right now ?
Coco : Yes . But not to cause trouble for liam . She just wants to get some answers .
Sally : You know , I , uh , got to give the princess props . I expected a completely different reaction from her on thanksgiving . Clearly she did nt know I was coming cause she never would have allowed it . But she rose above . You know , it was classy , considering ...
Liam : You really expected her to give it to you , huh ?
Sally : I expected her to shove my face in pam s sweet potato casserole is what i expected , but she didnT. But I m not letting my guard down just yet , cause I expect to have a reaming coming after what I did .
Liam : After what we did . I m just as responsible as you are .
Sally : No , it was more me , and steffy knows that , which is exactly why she came back so quickly . Anyway , I know why she hates me .
Liam : Uh , actually , that s -- that s the thing . I mean , she was obviously mad at first , but it s like overnight she found this -- this peace and acceptance and -- and it allowed us to renew our marriage vows , and now --
Sally : Now you re off on this new , incredible chapter of your lives .
Liam : Yeah . Yeah , we are . It s just the way that steffy handled the whole thing . It s like she left one woman and came home another .
Bill : You did nt set out to betray liam , and neither did I. Hell , I thought you were done with him , that you were leaving him . God knows you had good reason . The man you trusted , your husband , just confessed to you that he shared a connection with , kisses with a woman that you loathe , that s been your enemy from day one . Now , sure , the circumstances were extraordinary , but they also revealed a connection between liam and sally that i do nt think he was ready to fully admit to until that moment .
Steffy : Look , nothing excuses what happened between us . It was a mistake , bill . It was a horrible lapse in judgment .
Bill : That will be compounded if you tell liam everything . You do realize that .
Steffy : What I realize is that I need to give liam the same kind of integrity and honesty that he gives me . Our marriage deserves that .
Bill : You wo nt have a marriage if you tell him . He will leave you . You will lose liam forever . Is that what you want ?
Darlita : No wonder you want me to keep this hush - hush . If steffy ever found out --
Coco : Oh , no , she already knows . Liam told her everything .
Darlita : Seriously ?
Coco : And she s forgiven liam , even renewed their wedding vows .
Darlita : Wow . That s love .
Coco : Yeah . Pretty exceptional woman , huh ?
Darlita : I ll say . Wait . If liam and steffy are back together and happy , where does that leave sally ?
Sally : Couples fight . They make up . I m just glad what happened did nt cause any permanent damage .
Liam : Yeah . Me , too . Me , too . Uh , although it was nt even a fight , so much as when she left , I was scared it was for good .
Sally : She would not do that . No woman would . I certainly wouldnT. I m sorry . No , I m sorry . The last thing I want to do is to make you feel uncomfortable . I just have to be honest with you , liam . I ca nt stop thinking about what happened between us . And I know I shouldnT. I shouldnT. You re back with steffy , and that s right where you belong . Meanwhile , I have spectra to focus on , you know , get it back up and running again with your father s help . Surprise , surprise .
Liam : [ Chuckles ]
Sally : So I guess that makes me lucky . Not as lucky as steffy , but ... anyway , I m happy that you re happy , that you have a loving woman like the princess who is true and faithful to you .
Bill : If you tell liam what happened between us , it may ease your conscience , but the damage it will do to your marriage , not to mention my relationship with my son ? We are finally starting to heal . If you open this up ... you re my son s wife , steffy . If you tell him we were together , that s all he s going to hear . It s not gon na matter that we thought your relationship was over . He will feel betrayed .
Steffy : He was betrayed .
Bill : And I hate myself for it . But it was nt intentional from either of us . And what happened between us , it was nt tawdry . It was nt dirty . And it was nt an accident . We made love , and we both felt that way about it .
Steffy : Bill , stop . Please stop . Please .
Bill : I ca nt stop . I wish I could . I really do . But I canT. I ca nt lock those feelings away again . I told you that I wanted to spend the rest of my life with you . I said it years ago , and I said it again after we made love . I ca nt pretend like I do nt feel that we were made for each other . We understand each other . We re connected . We always have been , and we always will be . I ca nt deny what I know . We were meant to be . You and I , we re meant to be .

Tabitha : Oh ! Get a grip , old girl . This wo nt do . This wo nt do at all .

Whitney : Yes , yes , you did . Wow , babe , uh , no -- well , you do nt have to look so guilty about it . You look amazing . No , no , I kind of like it . Next time , you know , maybe you can just wake me up if you want to make such a big decision .
Chad : Yeah , yeah , but , baby , you were sleeping so soundly and you looked like an angel .
Whitney : Oh , honey . But why are you coming in so late ? Where were you ?
Chad : Well , I -- I had a few things to finish up at the office . I would have called , but I figured you were already sleeping .
Whitney : Yeah , right .
Chad : You know what ? You chill out here in bed , all right , baby ? I m going to make us some breakfast .
Whitney : No , no , wait . Just -- just wait one second . Um , I kind of have a confession to make .
Chad : Yeah ? What s that ?
Whitney : Well , I better tell you now before Vincent tells you .
Chad : And what does he have to do with anything ?
Whitney : I lost it again . You know , after promising you that it would never , ever happen again .
Chad : What are you saying ?
Whitney : Well , I let my doubts and suspicions get the better of me , and I did something awful . I just really hope you can forgive me once you find out what it was .
Fox : What s wrong ? Why did you scream when I kissed you ?
Kay : I -- I m -- I do nt know . I do nt know . I m just -- I m half asleep , a little disoriented right now , ok ? I m just surprised to see you , that s all .
Fox : Surprised ? You were surprised to see your husband lying next to you in bed ? Well , who did you expect to see ?
Theresa : Oh , my God . Wait a minute . What am I doing ?
Ethan : What , what ? Hey , do nt pull away . Come here .
Theresa : No , no , no , Ethan , I m married . I married Jared .
Ethan : Yeah , you re married to Jared on paper , but you re married to me in your heart and in your body , so you know we belong together .
Theresa : No , Ethan , it s the paper that counts . It s the paper . You always said that when you were with Gwen .
Ethan : I made a mistake , Theresa . I should have followed my heart a long time ago . Then nothing would be in our way right now .
Theresa : Yes , but something has got in our way . And it s not only Jared , it is that crazy person who s been blackmailing me .
Ethan : The only reason you married Jared was because the blackmailer forced you to do it . The same creep that framed your brothers , right ?
Theresa : Right , and we have no proof , Ethan . And this is my brothers that we re talking about . And Miguel , he could get sentenced to prison for life , Ethan . And Luis , he could get the death penalty . These are crimes that they have nt even committed , so I need to do everything I can to clear their names , and that means I have to obey the blackmailer .
Ethan : Theresa , settle down . Listen , I do nt get this . Why do nt you just tell me what this blackmailer has on you and how it affects helping your brothers . Come on .
Theresa : It just does , all right ? It just does .
Ethan : So you re not going to tell me this secret of yours , is that it ?
Theresa : No , I ca nt . And you know what ? I ca nt do this . I can not do this with you . That blackmailer , he -- he knows every move that I make , Ethan . And if I do this with you , Luis and Miguel will pay for it .
Ethan : There is no way that this blackmailer knows that we are here right now . And you have done everything that he has asked you to do . Everything , including marry Jared when you know it s me you want . I think you ve appeased this creep s wishes long enough .
Theresa : I would nt be so sure , Ethan .
Chad : It s ok , baby .
Whitney : No . No , actually , it s not . God , I do nt even know how to tell you what I did . It s so completely out of line .
Whitney : Um -- I thought you had gone to that cheap motel by the highway again .
Chad : What ? Why would you -- why would you think that ?
Whitney : Well , it was because of this nurse at the hospital . I mean , he told me that the man I had come in there with had taken off to the motel . And naturally I assumed it was you , you know , that he had seen us talking before or something . I -- I acted like an idiot , ok ? I was even worse than an idiot . I -- I jumped into my car , raced over to the motel room , actually barged into one of the motel rooms thinking that I was going to find you there -- find you there with some mistress . But of course I did nt find you there , babe . You would nt do that . I found Vincent . Vincent must have been who the nurse saw over at the hospital . And I just -- I just ca nt even tell you how sorry I am . I do nt even have words . You know , I -- I do nt know why it happened . I mean , I know better , so there s no excuse , right ? And it s totally the opposite of what I told you I would never do again , and that s doubt you and your love for me . Honey , I m so sorry .
Chad : No , hey , it s ok .
Whitney : But for me to continue doubting you like that . You know , suspecting you of cheating on me , like you re even capable of hurting me and our family in that way . I -- I do nt even know what happened . It was like some crazy thing took over my brain and told me that I could nt trust you , when I know that I can . And I do nt blame you for thinking that I m crazy . I m one of those jealous wives who ca nt get it together long enough to --
Chad : Whitney , stop . Stop it , ok ? I do nt think that about you at all . Ok , I think you re the most beautiful , wonderful , loving , loyal wife a man could ever ask for .
Whitney : Loyal wives do nt accuse their husbands of doing things that they would never do .
Chad : Baby , baby , give yourself a break , ok ? We all ca nt be perfect all the time . Not even you .
Whitney : Thank you , honey . I m so sorry . You know , thank you for being the best husband in the entire world . One that I do nt even deserve . Oh , honey .
Fox : Well ? Who were expecting to find in bed next to you ? Shall I guess ?
Kay : If the bed will take it .
Miguel : Hey , let s find out , huh ? }
Fox : Do you want to say his name or shall I ?
Kay : No , no , no , no , you -- you ve got it all wrong .
Fox : Do I ?
Kay : Yes , yes , I -- I was nt expecting anyone to be in bed next to me . I -- I do nt know . I was just half asleep when you started kissing me that my -- my brain had nt really kicked in . Besides , I thought you were at the hospital .
Fox : I left .
Kay : Well , obviously . But -- but how was I supposed to know that ? Last time I saw you , you were there last night . I thought you were continuing your treatments . Wait , what are you doing here ?
Fox : I could nt take it anymore . I was sick of the food . I was sick of the four walls I was surrounded by . I was sick of the nurses . I was sick of the poisonous treatment that they were pumping into me . I was sick of all of it . All right ? I had to get out of there and come home to see my wife . If there s anything that s going to make me feel better , it s being with you .
Tabitha : Oh .
Tabitha : Oh , your favorite , sweet pea . Porridge with chopped newt tails .
Tabitha : Yes , well , you keep it that way . We would nt want Maria to know what we witches really like to eat , would we , now ?
Tabitha : Yes , do nt you remind me . Oh , it s too early in the day to think of your father . The very thought of Julian gives me the willies . But I said I would nt speak ill of your father in front of you , so -- ooh , it s hot in here . I know I like it musty , but it is springtime . Oh . Oh ! Oh , what the blazes ?
Tabitha : No . No , not really . That , my child , is what we call an ill wind . And it s not one of my making . I do nt like what it portends . Not at all .
Theresa : I want to believe that you re right . I want to believe that the blackmailer is actually done with us , but I just -- I do nt . I just -- I do nt .
Ethan : Theresa , come on . Hey , what more can he do ? I mean , your brothers are already facing prison .
Theresa : Or worse in Luis case .
Ethan : And you ve been forced to marry Jared . I m sorry , but the only thing left to do is to catch this guy and to move on with our lives . But until then , you re safe with me .
Theresa : You know what ? I want to feel safe with you . I always felt safe with you in the past , but not now . I mean , everything has changed . Nobody I care about has been left unscathed , even you , especially you .
Ethan : Look , hey , I know things look bad , but they re not going to stay that way .
Theresa : That s sweet of you to say that .
Ethan : No , I m not -- I m serious . You ve done everything that this sicko has asked you to do , and it s time that we stop letting this guy pull the strings , Theresa .
Theresa : Ok , well , how do we stop something when we do nt even know who they are ?
Ethan : We work harder . I m going to work harder . I m going to get you out of this mess , I m going to make sure your brothers are proven innocent , and I m not going to rest until it happens .
Person : It s up to you , Theresa . You re holding all their fates in your hands .
Whitney : Thank you for loving me enough to forgive me .
Chad : I told you , there s nothing to forgive .
Whitney : Wow , babe , I do nt know if I d be that understanding if the shoe was on the other foot . I mean , it would kill me to think that you did nt trust me .
Chad : Hey , hey , just --
Whitney : No , no , no , just let me just say this one thing , ok ? This is nt the kind of wife that I want to be to you . All right ? But you have my word . I will never again slip the way I did last night . It s not going to happen , all right ? You have my undying , unwavering faith and trust .
Chad : I know that .
Whitney : I just really do nt want to keep letting you down , you know ? And if it makes you feel any better , I m way more ashamed of myself than you probably are in me .
Chad : Hey , I m not ashamed of you .
Whitney : Come on , babe . It s ok . I mean , to think that -- that -- that I could lose faith so quickly just because of what some nurse told me .
Chad : Stop . Now , ok , Whitney ? I wo nt let you beat yourself up anymore .
Whitney : Ok . I mean , I just -- I just want to say the only thing I can think of , and it s certainly not , you know , an excuse or anything , is that I ve been so caught up with Theresa s whole mess with Jared and Ethan that I forgot I am living the life of my dreams with the man that I love , honey .
Chad : Whitney .
Whitney : And that s why I just feel so bad about what I did . You know , going to that motel room thinking I was going to catch you , you know ? I do nt know what I would have done if I had found you there with somebody .
Chad : Well , you know , you did nt , Whitney , and that s all that matters . No one s ever going to come between us , baby . I promise .
Kay : I m just so worried about you , Fox .
Fox : Why ? Do I look worse ?
Kay : No , no , you look great . You always look cute to me . But we both know how sick you are inside , and I m sure it s taking every ounce of your strength to fight this awful illness to try and stay as healthy as you can .
Fox : I m hanging in there .
Kay : I wish I could just help you .
Fox : Hey , we have to learn to live in the moment , right ? We have to appreciate whatever time we have left . You know , when you think about it , Kay , we re all really dying . Just some of us a little bit sooner than others .
Kay : I know , Fox , but you re just -- you re just so young . I want to do everything I can to help prolong the time you have .
Fox : You are . By being my -- my beautiful , loving wife . You re my rock , Kay . You re the only reason that I want to live . Kay , do you think that I d be going through all these wretched treatments , these treatments that make me so sick , if they were nt going to buy us more time together ? Time -- time like this .
Kay : But still , I do nt think it s safe for you to leave the hospital .
Fox : Listen , I want to live for you , for us .
Miguel : Ok , I ca nt go in there right now . It would only make things worse for Kay .
Fox : Listen , it s , uh -- it s late and I ve got a meeting .
Kay : For work ?
Fox : Yeah , you know , I might be dying , but I still have obligations .
Kay : Do you want me to drive you ?
Fox : No , no , no , that wo nt be necessary . I ll just catch up to you later , ok ?
Kay : Ok .
Kay : Oh , God . What am I going to do ?
Theresa : So you really think that you can find a way to clear Luis and Miguel ?
Ethan : I do . I do , more than ever . And I keep forgetting to thank you , but , thank you .
Theresa : For what ?
Ethan : For the open checkbook . Because the Crane bankroll has come in handy . I mean , I do nt know what I would do without it .
Theresa : I m glad .
Ethan : It s important . I mean , I ve been able to follow every lead and look at every angle , and I m going to make sure your brothers are found innocent , ok ? I m promise you .
Theresa : Ok . Thank you .
Theresa : I mean , you have no idea how much that means to me .
Ethan : It s ok .
Theresa : Thank you .
Ethan : You re welcome .
Person : Bad Theresa . Very , very bad .
Whitney : Oh .
Chad : As long as you know that I love you and only you .
Whitney : I do . I really do , honey . And I just -- I just ca nt believe I ever doubted that , you know ? Especially since we ve been through this before . But I have 100 % faith in you now . And I guess I m going to have to spend the rest of my life just making it up to you .
Chad : Hmm . See , I told you there s nothing to feel bad about .
Whitney : Well , I ca nt help it . I still do . Anyway , I am still actually glad that I went to that motel room , even though it was for the wrong reasons .
Chad : Why do you say that ?
Theresa : Well , you were right about Vincent . He is a complete jerk .
Chad : Oh , yeah ?
Whitney : Yeah .
Chad : Hmm .
Whitney : You know , I went to that hotel room thinking I was going to find you , and when I found him , there was somebody in the bathroom . And naturally , you know , of course I m thinking it s Valerie , right ?
Chad : Ok , so what s -- what s the problem ?
Whitney : Well , I was on my way out , right , and I just felt so badly for barging into their motel room the way I did that I wanted to apologize . You know , I wanted to apologize to Valerie woman to woman , face to face . But she would nt come out of the bathroom . And finally Vincent told me why . Because Valerie was nt in the bathroom . After all that carrying on Vincent did about Valerie being his soul mate , he was there with somebody else , Chad . Somebody else was in the bathroom . I mean , can you believe him ? Can you believe what kind of two - timing jerk he is ?
Chad : I -- I told you I did nt trust him .
Whitney : And now I see why . I mean , he s got some nerve if you ask me . See , now I see why you had such a problem with him .
Tabitha : I m not used to all this chaos and mayhem . At least not this way . Normally I m the one who s causing it , but not this time . My picture s all fuzzy here . Seems to be a lot of interference coming from outside . And I need to see what s going on .
Tabitha : Hocus pocus end this mocus .
Tabitha : Oh , well , there . Well , at least I seem to be able to see what s going on upstairs , Endora .
Tabitha : May I see , Mum ? No , you may not . You -- you would nt like it anyway .
Tabitha : Because it s boring . That s why . Positively boring .
Tabitha : Endora wants Kay to be with Fox . So if she saw what s going on there , she d throw a temper tantrum that would undo all my hard work .
Kay : Did you just come upstairs ?
Miguel : No . Actually , I ve been standing outside that door for a few minutes now .
Kay : Then you saw Fox .
Miguel : Yes , I saw Fox . And do you want to tell me what the hell he s doing out of the hospital ?
Kay : Well , I asked him that . He said he does nt want to spend any time he has left away from me .
Miguel : Come on , Kay , as if he s really dying .
Kay : Ok , stop talking like he s not sick . You know he is . He would nt be losing his hair . He would nt be going through with these awful treatments . And he looks terrible .
Miguel : Look , I noticed , Kay . I noticed .
Kay : I did nt want to say anything to him . I did nt want to make it worse , but it s obvious what he s going through is making him really weak .
Miguel : How weak , Kay , hmm ? How weak ? Enough that he s not trying to make love to you again ?
Kay : Oh , come on , Miguel . You know what the side effects of the treatments are .
Miguel : Yeah . They re inconsistent . Because one minute he s impotent and the next minute he s not . Yes , he looks awful . But I still think he s faking it , Kay . He would , believe me . I -- I d look that tired , too , if I had been doing that much lying .
Kay : Ok , stop . Stop saying mean things about my husband , ok ?
Judge Reilly : Come in , Fox . Well , good morning , Fox . And what can I do for you ?
Fox : Move Miguel Lopez - Fitzgerald s trial date up to tomorrow if possible . I want that bastard in jail for the rest of his life .
Judge Reilly : Uh , sorry , Fox , no can do .
Fox : Oh , bad answer . Bad , bad answer , your honor . This is nt a request or a little favor I m asking . That s an order .
Judge Reilly : Just back off , will you , young man ? You are not the only Crane that I answer to , you know .
Fox : Are you referring to my grandfather s widow ? Because --
Judge Reilly : Damn right I am referring to Theresa . She is the one that s pulling the Crane strings these days . And she wants her brothers trials postponed as long as possible , which is exactly how it s going to be .
Theresa : Ethan .
Person : You should nt have succumbed to his charms , Theresa . Now look what you ve done .
Whitney : I just feel so bad for Valerie , you know ?
Chad : Uh , Whitney , stay out of it .
Whitney : That s really easy for you to say . I m the one who set them up . You know , they would nt even know each other if it were nt for me . I just really thought they were such a perfect couple .
Chad : They were . And for all we know , they still are .
Whitney : With Vincent cheating on Valerie ? That does nt sound very perfect if you ask me .
Chad : Look , all I m saying is you ca nt control what other people do .
Whitney : Well , I m not trying to control anything . You know , I just want to save Valerie from -- she might be wasting her time with this guy , you know ? She deserves to be warned .
Chad : No , no , no , hey , hey . No , no , no , you ca nt do that .
Whitney : Chad , what are you talking about ? Why ca nt I tell Valerie what s going on ? She deserves to know what her so - called boyfriend is up to in his spare time . If it were me , I would want somebody to tell me .
Chad : Look , you re not going to go to Valerie with this . That s final . Ok , I m not going to let you .
Miguel : Oh , my God , you know , I ve gone back and forth on this so many times , Kay , and my original instincts were right . Fox is not even dying .
Kay : Look , I do nt want to hear your theories anymore , ok ? You might not believe he s dying , but I do . And I hate that you re being accused of trying to run him down with your car , but I do nt know --
Miguel : Listen to me . Listen to me , please . Do nt even start thinking that I did this to Fox , ok ?
Kay : I do nt think that , but I do nt think Fox is intentionally pointing the finger at you . He must honestly believe that you were behind the wheel . Look , and you and I both know that if people see us together , they re just going to start talking , and they re going to start saying that -- that jealousy was your motive . So , you know what ? I -- I think you should just go .
Miguel : Listen to me , listen to me . Do nt do this to us .
Kay : Do nt do what ? I m trying to protect you . God knows what would happen if Fox walked in here .
Miguel : Fox is not going to walk in here , Kay . Look at me . I love you . And you love me . Do nt let him get to you like this . Do it for us , for our daughter s sake , for our sake .
Kay : Oh , do nt drag Maria into this .
Miguel : Well , you know what ? Maria is our little girl , and she s in it whether you like it or not . And I love you , and I love her . And the two of you are my life , Kay .
Fox : Move Miguel Lopez - Fitzgerald s trial date up .
Judge Reilly : I just told you I ca nt do that .
Fox : Forget Theresa .
Judge Reilly : Look , even if I could -- and I ca nt -- it s the older Lopez- Fitzgerald who is going to trial first .
Fox : Well , just change the order .
Judge Reilly : Excuse me . I have to answer my mail .
Person : Do it , Judge Reilly . You know you can .
Judge Reilly : Who is this ? What s this all about ?
Person : Move both Miguel and Luis trial dates up . They need to be found guilty as soon as possible .
Fox : Who is that ?
Judge Reilly : You seem to have an ally . Do -- do you know who it is ?
Fox : No . But the more , the merrier .
Judge Reilly : Now , listen to me . I demand to know who you are .
Person : Someone who knows you quite well , Judge Reilly . Someone who knows what you do in your private time and how much you would nt want the world or your wife to find out .
Judge Reilly : What ?
Fox : I take it that s not Mrs. Reilly ?
Judge Reilly : Oh , just shut up , will you ? Just shut up .
Person : Now do you see why you should do my bidding ? Move the brothers Lopez- Fitzgerald trials forward .
Judge Reilly : But I -- I just -- I ca nt do that . The court s docket is overloaded as it is .
Person : Clear the dockets or you ll never be addressed as your honor again .
Fox : Ooh , that sounds serious . I d do what he says .
Person : I m really not someone you want to argue with .
Theresa : Wow .
Ethan : Yeah , wow .
Theresa : Wow , wow .
Ethan : I got lucky . No one was in the kitchen .
Ethan : To us . And to the rest of our lives .
Theresa : So , toasting with orange juice , huh ?
Ethan : It s not orange juice . There s something special in there . It s called a mimosa .
Theresa : Mmm .
Ethan : Yeah .
Theresa : Yeah , alcohol s good first thing in the morning .
Ethan : Hey . No , wait , wait , it s not morning , though . I m looking at this as -- it s like the first day of the rest of our lives , you know ?
Theresa : Wow . You re turning into quite the cornball , huh ?
Ethan : I ve always been a cornball , and I think you ve always loved that .
Theresa : Yeah . I love everything about you .
Ethan : I like to hear that so much .
Person : Bad girl , Theresa . You ll have to be punished for this .
Chad : Baby , I just wish you would nt go to Valerie with this , that s all .
Whitney : Ok , well , why not ?
Chad : Because it s none of our business . I mean , their relationship is between them .
Whitney : Look , I see what you re talking about on one hand , but on the other hand I think she deserves to know .
Chad : Since when ? Whitney , you used to hate her .
Whitney : Well , I know that . I m very well aware of that , ok ? I know that I was jealous of her and you , but I ve moved past that , ok ? And we ve actually become friends . Besides , she s a woman , and I think she deserves to know --
Chad : No , no , no , no , do nt say you re going to break out into some rap about being united in sisterhood .
Whitney : Yeah , as a matter of fact , I was , thank you very much .
Chad : No , come on , Whitney . She s a grown woman . She can handle herself .
Whitney : And she d do a whole lot better if she knew the truth , Chad . Come on -- look , maybe I am butting in where I do nt belong , but as far as I see it , Vincent brought this on himself . Now , God forbid something like this happened to me . You know , and a friend of mine knew that you were sneaking around behind my back . I would want to know . As a matter of fact , I d be furious if somebody knew and did nt tell me . So I owe Valerie the same respect that I would want myself . Ok ? Now , I already left her a message that I needed to talk to her , and I m going to try her again .
Chad : Whitney .
Whitney : It s the voicemail , ok ? Hey , Valerie , it s Whitney again . Look , I do nt mean to keep bugging you , but I really , really need to talk to you . It s important .
Tabitha : Oh , my , they re still at it . Must nt let Endora know .
Tabitha : Oh , nothing , sweet pea . Nothing at all . Oh , my , look at the time . And we re not even dressed yet . Oh , come on . We ve got to get going . Get on with our day . Come on , my little sweet pea .
Kay : No , ok , we ca nt do this . Fox could walk in here .
Miguel : Fox is not walking in here , Kay . I heard him say he had a meeting to go to . And listen to me . We may not have much time left together if Ethan is right about my trial . Ok , I could be behind bars any second now . Look at me . So let s just steal the little time we have left together .
Kay : I want to , Miguel . You know I do . It s just -- I do nt know what I m going to do . I love you so much . I do nt know -- I do nt know what I ll do if they put you in jail .
Judge Reilly : Uh , whoever you are , I appreciate your concern , but as I was explaining to Mr. Crane here -- well , uh , there s very little that I can do about Luis and Miguel s cases . I do nt handle the -- the scheduling . And , moreover , my hands are virtually tied by Theresa Crane or Casey , or whatever her name is . I mean , she is Alistair s widow , and I -- well , I ca nt go up against her .
Person : Let me put it this way to you , Judge Reilly . Who do you fear crossing more , Theresa or me ? I can see to it that you ll be put behind bars for the rest of your entire life . You know as well as I do that picture of your little strumpet is the least of your worries . There s oh so much more I can tell the world about you . So what s it going to be ? Push up the trial dates or incur my wrath ?
Judge Reilly : So , uh , this evidence against Luis and Miguel -- it s all legitimate , is nt it ?
Fox : Well , of course it is . Miguel tried to kill me . And from what I ve heard , Luis has murdered two people .
Judge Reilly : Oh , well , all right . All right , then we ll -- then we ll proceed to trial against both brothers . And to hell with Theresa .
Fox : Hmm . That s the spirit , Judge .
Ethan : I told you you d be safe . See , you re safe . As long as we re together , no one is going to hurt you .
Ethan : Do nt even think about it .
Theresa : You know , I need to .
Ethan : Do nt even think about it .
Theresa : It could be about Luis and Miguel . Please , please ? Thank you .
Theresa : Hello ?
Person : Naughty girl , Theresa .
Theresa : Who is this ?
Person : What a stupid question from a usually bright young woman . You just sentenced one of your brothers to death with your actions . And the other in jail for the rest of his life . For shame , Theresa .
Theresa : No , no , no , you -- you ca nt do this to them . You ve already hurt them enough . Now please leave them alone !
Person : I warned you to stay away from lover boy . But you did nt listen , you cheap slut . You ve just added adultery to your long list of infractions . And now you ll pay with everyone you hold dear .
Theresa : No !
Fancy : I love you so much .
Theresa : What have I done to my brothers , Ethan ? Their lives are over because of me .
Sam : Welcome home .

You are a helpful, respectful and honest assistant. Your task is to summarize the following dialogue. Your answer should be based on the provided dialogue only.
### Dialogue:
Katie : ( Sighs )
Katie : You have brought this man into our lives . You committed a crime for him . What happens when Deacon Sharpe wants to take us all down with him ?
Bill : I would never let that happen .
Katie : How can you say that ? You have handed him all the power . You have jeopardized everything we have . You have jeopardized our son s entire future . ( Breathing heavily )
Bill : Katie , what is it ? What is it ? Is your heart ?
Katie : No . It s the baby . It s -- I - I think it s a contraction . I think I m going into labor .
Bill : I ca nt believe it . Katie , Katie , you did it .
Katie : ( Chuckles )
Bill : You did it . I m so proud of you .
Bill : Katie ? Katie ?
Bill : Katie ?
Katie : ( Sighs )
Brooke : Hello
Katie : Hey . Um , we re over here .
Brooke : Oh . ( Sighs ) Hand that sweet little baby over right now .
Katie : I - I just -- just got him to go to sleep . ( Sighs )
Brooke : Okay , I ll hold him when he wakes up . Oh , he s so precious .
Katie : Welcome home .
Brooke : Aw . Congratulations , Honey . ( Sighs ) So ... ( Chuckles ) This is what happened ? You -- I go away , you have your baby , and you move ?
Katie : Yeah . Well , it was nt exactly the way I planned it , Sis . Um , Will was ready , and Bill just ... bought this place all on his own . ( Chuckles )
Brooke : So that means Taylor s living at the beach house ?
Katie : Yeah , I guess so . She -- I - I guess she wanted a smaller place , now that her kids are out of the house .
Brooke : ( Sighs )
Katie : Was Ridge upset ?
Brooke : When ?
Katie : Well , I know that you were gon na stay away longer . I mean , you did nt have to come back right away .
Brooke : Oh , no , no , no . I - I wanted to be here . I came as soon as I found out . I just -- I wish I was here when it all happened . ( Sighs ) Maybe if I had been , things would have turned out a bit differently .
Caroline : So have you heard from Ridge lately ?
Rick : Not yet . My dad s supposed to get an e - mail from him soon .
Caroline : Are you thinking it s pretty much just a done deal
Rick : Well , Ridge wants to take some time off , have an interim C.E.O. I m the natural choice .
Caroline : Not Thorne ?
Rick : Well , Thorne handles the distribution and transportation for company . That s his niche . He s comfortable there . And besides , how many years have I been running International ? Thorne does nt have that experience-- in fact , nobody here does . Even Ridge realizes that . I m about to become C.E.O. of Forrester Creations . And I know just how I want to celebrate .
Caroline : I bet you do .
Pam : Okay .
Donna : It s my turn to take notes , right ?
Pam : Nope . It s mine . This is a very important meeting , Donna , and it s got ta be done just right . You -- you can be in charge of drinks .
Donna : ( Scoffs ) All right .
Stephanie : I forgot to tell you -- I m so sorry-- I got the results of the mammogram back , and nothing s changed .
Rick : Oh , good . That s great to hear . Oh .
Stephanie : Ridge , maybe ?
Eric : Yeah . It s the alert from the e - mail . He s gon na tell me who s chosen to be C.E.O. I have to get inside and get it on the laptop .
Stephanie : Okay .
Eric : Naw , you know what ? Why do nt I just tell him that I ll be C.E.O. again ? What do you say ?
Stephanie : No , you re not going to do that .
Eric : ( Chuckles )
Stephanie : Honey , whoever he chooses , you mentor . Leave it at that .
Eric : All right .
Donna : ( Sighs )
Caroline : What about Thomas ?
Rick : Who ?
Caroline : Ah , very funny .
Rick : You think he has a chance at becoming C.E.O. ?
Caroline : I mean , he is Ridge s son .
Rick : And I m Eric s . Ridge will respect that .
Eric : Good . Everyone s here .
Donna : Would you like some water , Eric ?
Eric : Yes , thanks .
Pam : He prefers sparkling .
Donna : He likes flat .
Rick : ( Sighs )
Donna : I would know . I was married to him .
Stephanie : ( Clears throat )
Pam : What would you know about flat ?
Eric : I ll have , uh--50/50 , some of each . Thank you , Ladies .
Marcus : Hey , are we late ?
Stephanie : No , you re not . Come on , let s get started .
Marcus : ( Sighs ) Well , it s a big day , huh , finding out who will be interim C.E.O. ?
Rick : You got that right .
Marcus : Any idea who ? Who do you think Ridge will choose ?
Thomas : Well , I m anxious to find out who . What about you , Rick ?
Rick : I ve got a pretty good idea .
Marcus : Well , it did surprise me that Ridge was doing this . He must be planning to stay away for quite a while . What do you think , Mom ? You think it s because of Katie ?
Donna : I m not sure .
Marcus : Well , we did almost lose her . Kind of makes you remember that life s too short . I bet you Ridge is thinking that it s a lot smarter being alone with his bride rather than sweating it out here in the office .
Thomas : I just wish he d make a decision already .
Katie : Please do nt feel bad that you were nt here . I mean , everything-- everything worked out fine .
Brooke : ( Sighs )
Katie : You okay ?
Brooke : ( Sighs ) It was awful hearing those messages that you were in labor and that you had a heart attack . It just felt so lonely being so far away . ( Sighs )
Katie : Well , I guess I ll try to plan my medical emergencies for when you and Ridge are in town . ( Chuckles )
Brooke : Um , so that-- what happened ? Did you really know that you were going into labor ?
Katie : Yeah . I knew . ( Chuckles ) Uh , Bill and I were discussing something , and it -- it -- it just came on . It was sharp and sudden , and I had him take me to the hospital right away .
Brooke : Oh , my God . Bill must have been totally freaked out .
Katie : Yeah , you have no idea . Ah .
Brooke : ( Sighs ) Sound asleep .
Katie : Yeah , I heard . ( Sighs ) Nice lullaby .
Brooke : Oh , no . You were nt listening . Oh , that s ... ( Chuckles ) That s really embarrassing .
Katie : Do nt be embarrassed . None of us could ever carry tune .
Brooke : Yeah , I know-- none of us girls could , anyway . Stormy was always a good singer , however .
Katie : Did Donna tell you that I saw him ?
Brooke : Who ? Stormy ?
Katie : Yeah . It s was -- it was amazing . One minute , I was looking at Bill holding our son , and I was completely mesmerized by him-- the fact that he was here and that he was healthy . And then -- then I just suddenly felt so tired , like -- like nothing in this world could keep me here , and -- and I was gone .
Brooke : Your heart .
Katie : I - I did nt even have time to be afraid .
Brooke : ( Sighs )
Katie : I - I - I was vaguely aware of -- of the doctors working on me , trying to revive me , and I had no idea that I was-- I was lying in that bed dying because I was nt there anymore . I was nt in the hospital . I was nt in my body . And that s when he appeared .
Brooke : Oh , my God .
Katie : I -- you -- you do nt have to believe me . I know it sounds crazy .
Brooke : No , no , no . I do . I believe you . What -- what did he say ?
Katie : He said that I had to keep fighting , that he wanted me to use his heart a little while longer , and that I needed to come back for my son and for Bill .
Brooke : Oh , Katie . ( Gasps )
Katie : So I came back .
Brooke : ( Chuckles ) Just like that ?
Katie : Yeah , it was . ( Sighs ) It was the strangest thing , because it was the most peaceful experience . And -- and it never crossed my mind that I would want to leave , but then I started focusing on my son , and I started thinking about how I could nt leave him alone with Bill .
Brooke : Storm was trying to tell you that you had more to live for .
Katie : ( Sniffles ) He did nt want me to waste his heart . ( Chuckles )
Brooke : ( Sighs )
Katie : So I guess I ll be spending a few more years here before I join the party , right ?
Brooke : ( Chuckles ) That s right . Yes .
Katie : ( Sniffles )
Brooke : And ... ( Sighs ) Of course , you ca nt leave little Will alone with Bill any time soon , right ?
Katie : ( Sighs ) No . Definitely not . ( Sighs )
Marcus : Right .
Eric : Ridge said he would e - mail any second now .
Pam : Great .
Eric : You know , he s not taking this decision lightly .
Eric : Oh , here we are . ( Sighs )
Pam : Great .
Eric : I want to thank everyone at Forrester for understanding why I need this time off . It s been extremely helpful to be away from L.A. , and from the fashion industry . This honeymoon has opened my eyes to many things . It may seem strange taking this break from work , but it ll make me a better , more focused C.E.O. when I return . In the meantime , I realize our company needs a leader . As much as I d like you to fill that role , Dad , I understand why you do nt want to . You spent your entire life building this company for our family . You ve earned your right to step back and be proud of what it s become . I m confident the person I ve chosen to take over will continue to make Forrester Creations the strong and successful family business you started . After careful consideration , I ve made my decision . I ve decided to name Thomas ...
Marcus : Hey !
Rick : Interim C.E.O. Thomas is a natural fit . He s everything we need in a leader right now . A talented designer who handles the press with charm and ease , he carries the Forrester name and represents it well . We ll all benefit from his youthful enthusiasm . I m not sure how long I ll be away , but I have no doubt Thomas will fill my shoes extremely well until I return .
Stephanie : Congratulations , Tom .
Thomas : Thank you , Grandma . I ll make Dad proud . I ll make you all proud .
Rick : Are you freakin kidding me ? Thomas is gon na lead our company ? He can draw and make a clown out of himself in front of the press , so suddenly he s C.E.O. ? He has no business skills . He has no experience at -- at running anything . Come on , Dad . You got ta do something about this . This is nt right .
Stephanie : Rick , the decision s been made .
Rick : The wrong one . Thomas , I mean , come on , you ca nt possibly believe that you can run this company .
Thomas : Yes , Rick , I do . I m not saying I wo nt need a little guidance at first , but yeah , I ll be just fine . This is my birthright .
Rick : Your birthright . I m Eric Forrester Jr. , not Ridge , and certainly not you . Dad , get him on the phone . We re overriding this .
Eric : All right , Rick , you need to calm down . Just calm down , all right ?
Rick : No , Dad , you see that this is wrong , right ?
Eric : This is just while he s gone .
Rick : We do nt know how long Ridge will be gone , and it could be months . I would nt let Thomas play C.E.O. for a day .
Thomas : Come on , man . Show a little respect .
Rick : To you ?
Stephanie : Rick , the decision has been made . Accept it gracefully . Tom , you ll be great .
Pam : Come on , Donna . Let s type these up . Come on .
Donna : Okay .
Marcus : Well , I guess meeting s adjourned .
Thomas : Yep .
Marcus : Congratulations , Brother .
Thomas : Thank you .
Marcus : You need anything , you let me know , all right ?
Thomas : Appreciate it .
Marcus : Cool .
Eric : Thomas , let s , uh , let s meet up in a few ?
Thomas : Sounds good . I ll be leaning on you , especially at first .
Eric : Good . Rick , you and I need to talk .
Rick : Later . I d like a moment alone with Thomas .
Eric : All right .
Brooke : You want me to get out of your hair ? You should be sleeping . Will is . And I know what it s like to have a newborn , so--
Katie : Oh , no , no . Dont -- dont be silly , um , I - I mean , unless Ridge is missing you . I mean , this is probably the longest you ve been apart since you went on your honeymoon .
Brooke : Uh , no . He s -- he s not home . I came back alone .
Katie : ( Sighs ) Oh , man . I feel so guilty . You -- you did nt have to come all the way back to Los Angeles . I told you on the phone--
Brooke : Honey , I wanted to . It s fine .
Katie : But to interrupt your honeymoon like this-- you must have a very understanding husband . ( Sighs ) Where did you go , anyway ?
Brooke : Um , we went from Paris down to Nice , and then we hopped on the yacht . You know , we were gon na be around for a while . That s why it was hard to reach us , because we had no reception , and then we were ... ( Sighs ) You know , it really-- it s not important . ( Chuckles )
Katie : Well , when are you going back ?
Brooke : I m not .
Katie : I - I do nt understand .
Brooke : It s just that the trip is over .
Katie : So Ridge is floating around the Mediterranean all by himself without his bride ?
Brooke : That would be up to him .
Katie : What s going on ?
Brooke : ( Sighs )
Katie : Did something happen between you and Ridge ?
Thomas : So what s the problem , Rick ? I thought you d support this .
Rick : How can I possibly ?
Thomas : I do nt know . You ve been pretty friendly the past couple weeks . But here we are , back to that old familiar feeling of you glaring at me .
Caroline : You know what ? Maybe we all just need to take a breather .
Thomas : ( Scoffs ) It was all an act , was nt it , you convincing yourself that I m a good enough guy to push onto Hope , so you could go after Caroline .
Caroline : Thomas .
Thomas : Come on , you know it s true .
Rick : I ll never like you . I like what you do for Hope , how -- how you treat her the way that Liam ca nt . That has nothing to do with my feelings for Caroline , not to say that I m not better off for her than you , because I am-- better for Caroline and better suited to this company .
Thomas : You think that you are entitled to everything you want because you re Eric Forrester , Jr. Well , maybe if you got up and did something with your life instead of relying on your name , people would actually take you seriously .
Rick : What ? Are you delusional ? I ve done more for this company than you ever will . I ran International . What have you done-- a few drawings , spent some weeks down at the loading dock ?
Thomas : I am sick and tired of your whining , Rick . You re not running Forrester Creations ever . You re not getting Caroline , either . So just back off , you understand , Shorty ? ( Chuckles )
Rick : Yeah , Buddy , oh , I understand perfectly . Your daddy handed you a position that you did nt deserve , that you did nt earn .
Thomas : Look , I am C.E.O. of Forrester Creations , and you need to respect that .
Rick : Hey , respect this .
Thomas : You need to respect me .
Rick : Get your hands off me .
Thomas : You will respect me !
Rick : I said get your hands--
Caroline : Rick ! Rick !
Katie : Brooke , you re -- you re scaring me . What s -- what s going on ? What happened to Ridge ?
Brooke : No , I do nt want to talk about it , okay ?
Katie : What -- but-- but something happened . Is he -- is he all right ? Is he hurt ?
Be : No . No . Not ... ( Scoffs ) He s not hurt in the way that you mean . ( Sighs )
Katie : Okay .
Brooke : Look , I - I did nt want to burden you with this . I just wanted to come here , and I wanted to make sure that you were okay . I wanted to help you . I wanted to help that--
Katie : Well , let -- let me help you . You obviously need some help . But talk to me , please . Please tell me what s going on .
Brooke : Katie , you re not gon na believe this . I - I - I still ca nt believe this myself .
Katie : So Ridge hurt you . What did he do ?
Brooke : No . No . It s nothing like that . No .
Katie : Oh , my God . Brooke , Brooke , you re shaking . Are you okay ?
Brooke : Yes , I m ... ( Sighs ) No , I just -- I get really upset talking about this , and still-- I do nt even understand why it happened .
Katie : But let me -- let me get you a glass of water , okay ?
Brooke : ( Breathing heavily )
Katie : Brooke .
Brooke : ( Gasps )
Katie : Brooke , are you okay ? Brooke , breathe . Are you okay , Brooke ? Brooke ?
Brooke : ( Gasping )

<s>### Instruction:
You are a helpful, respectful and honest assistant. Your task is to summarize the following dialogue. Your answer should be based on the provided dialogue only.
### Dialogue:
Gigi : Not now .
Roxy : You snooze , you lose . That sister , princess bitch from hell -- I m sure she s right down the hall ; she s getting ready for her close - up . She s going to sashay up to Rex and I m sure she s going to lay it on real thick how she saved your son .
Gigi : She is saving him . Without her blood --
Roxy : Hey , it is nt Stacy s blood that s saving him .
Schuyler : What was that ?
Stacy : I -- I was just throwing out a tissue .
Schuyler : It s not a trashcan , Stace . It s for medical waste -- used syringes , things like that .
Stacy : Oh , my bad . Do I look as wiped as I feel ? Oh , I need to make myself look human again . Whoo .
Schuyler : You sure that s all you were tossing in there ?
Stacy : Why do nt you put your hand in there and find out ?
Viki : This was a good day , was nt it ?
Charlie : What ?
Viki : Well , Shane had his transplant today , which means now he has a chance .
Charlie : Yeah , that s great .
Viki : I must say , I kind of wish his aunt Stacy had not been the donor , but she was . And the important thing , of course , is that now there is hope for Shane , right ? And we got to celebrate Chloe today . I thought it was a lovely service , did nt you ?
Charlie : Very nice .
Viki : Jared and Natalie seemed genuinely pleased that Jessie asked them to be godparents . And Jessica was so happy , thank God . You know , the whole family gathered for a joyous occasion which I m sorry to say is something of a change .
Charlie : Yeah , well it s been a pretty rough time for everyone .
Viki : I have to wonder if that s why Nora did nt come . You know , her difficult times are only just beginning .
Charlie : What happened to Matthew should nt happen to any kid .
Viki : No . Clint was really , really upset that she did nt come . He seems to feel that she would rather spend her days with Bo right now .
Charlie : And is that why Clint was all over you ?
Viki : Excuse me ?
Charlie : Well , he was . And you were pretty much letting it happen .
Oliver : Dr. Saybrooke , I , uh , was nt expecting to find you here .
Marty : What is it ? Is something wrong ?
Oliver : Do you happen to know where John McBain is ?
Bo : John McBain would not kill two people and then stab the woman that he just married .
Nora : I know . I get that . But the knife that was found under the floorboards of Zach Rosen s motel room had Blair s blood on it and John s partial print .
Bo : But he would nt plant evidence trying to frame Rosen . That s not the way John operates .
Nora : Okay , so what do we do with this ? Mayor Lowell , you are back . How nice .
Mayor Lowell : Your people have nt picked up John McBain yet .
Bo : They re on it .
Mayor Lowell : Well let s hope you waited long enough for McBain to make his escape .
Bo : Are you saying what I think you are ?
Mayor Lowell : I know that cops protect each other . If he s not brought in here within the next hour --
Bo : I said he will be here .
Oliver : Talia ?
John : Fish , over here !
Oliver : Oh my God . Oh my God .
John : I m sorry .
Oliver : Well , are -- are you sure ?
John : She was dead before I pulled her out of the water .
Oliver : Oh , come on . There s nothing you can do ?
John : I just found her face - down in the pool , man .
Oliver : She was -- she was looking for you . I should nt have left her alone .
John : Hey , Fish , whoever did this may still be on the grounds . Why do nt you check the perimeter ?
Oliver : Okay .
Marty : John ? Oh , my God . Oh , my God , what happened ?
Gigi : What do you mean it is nt really Stacy s blood ?
Stacy : Yeah , why do nt you just leave the details to me , all right , genius ? I ll make a copy of this and I ll change John Doe to Stacy Morasco . How hard could that be ? It will look like I m the match . So all you have to do is zip your lips . We ll keep the real donor s identity between us and Rex will never find out about your secret .
Roxy : Well , you know , it is nt just , you know , Stacy s blood that s saving him . It s you and Rex and the love that you got for your kid , that you got for each other . See , he s got a mom and dad . I mean , he s got a family , so his life is worth fighting for .
Gigi : He ll still have us . We ll still love him .
Roxy : Yeah , but you wo nt be together if your sister has her way .
Gigi : I made a promise .
Roxy : To your trashy sister ? No , baby . That do nt count .
Gigi : I made a promise to God . I said that if he d save my son , I would give up anything .
Roxy : What kind of God would want you to give away the man you love ? I mean , you know , baby , I m no church lady or nothing like that , but what is God if it s not about love ? And why would he try to take that away ?
Gigi : Maybe you re right .
Roxy : So you ll tell Rex what your sister s been doing ?
Gigi : As soon as I get a chance .
Roxy : You go , girl . You blow that bitch right out of the water .
Stacy : Go ahead . Stick your unprotected hand in there . See if you can find what it is you think I m hiding . Oh , are you afraid you are going to catch something ? That might be worth it , though , right ? Because you could catch me doing something sleazy .
Schuyler : [ Scoffs ] Stop it .
Stacy : No , you stop it . You re not my mother . You re my roommate .
Schuyler : Yeah , well you re overreacting . What up with that ?
Stacy : Because you keep trying to protect me from myself .
Schuyler : And you do nt think you need it ?
Stacy : Look , I just saved my nephew s life . I have a conscience .
Schuyler : Do you have a conscience , Stace ?
John : Anything ?
Oliver : No , nothing . The security guard did nt see anything , either . What is that ?
John : Rosen s ring .
Oliver : Rosen is in lockup and that ring was in the evidence room .
John : Yeah .
Oliver : John , I -- I have to ask this -- did you do this ?
Gigi : So we made it through transplant day ?
Michael : So far .
Rex : You hear that Shane ? This is day zero and counting . Nothing but plus days from here on out .
Gigi : So when does engraftment start , again ?
Michael : Probably around day 14-plus .
Rex : When the mighty cells will be storming the castle .
Roxy : And they know how to get there ?
Michael : They do nt need a map . And I will be monitoring the situation from initiation , to engraftment , see how you re progressing --
Shane : And it s going to work , right ?
Michael : You know , I do not have my crystal ball . So , I can not see into the future and I ca nt be sure about anything , okay ? But we have done absolutely everything that we were supposed to do , okay ? And that always gives the patient the best chance possible .
Roxy : Well , I did shell out $ 50 to Madame Delphina and she has a crystal ball and she says you re looking great . Also , she told me I m going to win back that $ 50 at the track the next time I go .
Gigi : Shane , there is also this thing called the power of positive thinking and I got to tell you , I am feeling pretty positive right now . I think everything is going to work out for us .
Stacy : Okay , I see what this is about . You want to get with me and I turned you down .
Schuyler : No .
Stacy : That s why you brought me the flowers , but Rex was here .
Schuyler : Okay , okay . Sorry . I did nt want it to go like this .
Stacy : Then get off my case .
Schuyler : Why ? What ? So you can keep pulling the crap that you re pulling ?
Stacy : Oh , if I m so awful , then why do you keep hanging around ?
Schuyler : Because you just spent hours having your blood filtered so you can have them injected into your nephew , okay ? I thought maybe -- maybe you could use some support .
Stacy : I have support .
Schuyler : From your sister s boyfriend .
Stacy : Ex - boyfriend . They broke up .
Schuyler : Oh , oh . I wonder why . You re already doing a little number on him , are nt you ?
Stacy : I just want him to know I d do anything for his son .
Schuyler : Why ? Why ? So he ll come to you out of gratitude ? Out of obligation ? Oh , you saved his kid so he owes you ? Because if that s the case , Stacy , that does nt make him your boyfriend . It makes him your bitch . Is nt that about right ?
John : Are you asking me if I did this ?
Oliver : No , I -- what I m saying -- look , they found a knife in the floorboards of Rosen s motel room . It had Blair s blood on it and a partial print .
John : Did they find a match ?
Oliver : Yeah .
John : Whose ? Who stabbed Blair ?
Oliver : Well , according to the lab reports , John , you did .
Viki : I guess I felt close to Clint today , but that does nt mean I was encouraging him . Charlie , he was not all over me . Come on , we share children . We were celebrating the christening of our grandchild .
Charlie : Okay , fine . But who picks up Bree at preschool when Jess is busy with the baby ? Hmm ? And who comes over and helps them with dinner when you re unavailable because you re working late ? I ll give you a clue , it is nt Clint . It s good old Charlie . And today , I felt like I was there to hold the coats .
Viki : I m sorry you felt that way . Boy , you re really very angry with me , are nt you ?
Charlie : When I kept quiet about Jared not being a Buchanan , and that started a whole snowball that rolled all they way till Nash was killed , you just walked away from me .
Viki : Yeah , I do nt really like to think about those times , but what does that have to do with now ?
Charlie : Because I spent the next several months trying to earn your forgiveness , trying to get you back . And thank God I finally did , but I got to say , I think something got changed between us .
Viki : What got changed , Charlie ?
Charlie : Back at the old Bon - Jour , it was just Viki and Charlie . A waitress living in one room and a contractor with a drinking problem . Equals .
Viki : And now ?
Charlie : Well , the simple fact of the matter is now I always feel like I got my hat in my hand .
Roxy : You know , I think your hair is growing back already .
Shane : When it does , I want spikes . Not a Mohawk and not a faux - hawk , either .
Roxy : Okay , whatever you want . You know , baby , I would do anything for you . You know that . Just like your mom would .
Rex : Hey , what am I here , chopped liver ? I shaved my head .
Gigi : How are you doing ?
Shane : I m sort of sleepy .
Gigi : Are you okay ? Do you need anything ? Are you comfortable ?
Shane : I m fine .
Rex : You are amazing , that s what you are . You ve been so brave and tough through this whole situation . You are going to have to come up with another comic book , like , Shane Invincible or Shane Everlasting .
Shane : I know . How about this ? The fusion force , where chemo Boy and Super Stacy fuse into one ginormous superpower to blast Lou Kemia into smithereens .
Roxy : You know , like I was telling your mom , you know , it s not just Stacy who is doing this . It s the super love power that s doing its work . Right , Gigi ?
Shane : I want to make a comic book for Aunt Stacy , anyway . Where is she ?
Roxy : Well , she s probably resting , so , uh , I ll go find her . And I m going to tell her when I see her that she should just kind of not rush things at all . Give you some time together , like a family .
Roxy : [ Sighs ] Stacy .
Rex : How about we let you get some rest .
Shane : You guys will be here when I wake up ?
Gigi : We re not going anywhere , Shane .
Stacy : Like Rex could be ever be someone s bitch .
Schuyler : Well , how do you explain it then , Stacy ?
Stacy : He cares about me . What ? He does .
Schuyler : Because you saved his son .
Stacy : Well , that s start .
Schuyler : Okay , well , you need a reality check then .
Stacy : From you ?
Schuyler : From somebody . From somebody . Because you re in Stacyland where everything goes according to plan , you do whatever you want , and you ll do whatever it takes to get --
Stacy : Shut up !
Schuyler : I know what you re capable of .
Stacy : Shut the hell up , Schuy !
Schuyler : Or what ? What ? You going to do something crazy ? You going to do something crazy like trade you blood for a dude ?
Stacy : You know what ? I saved my nephew s life . And you know what ? It does nt matter how I m doing it , I m doing it , okay ?
Schuyler : Oh , okay . Fine , fine .
Roxy : Hey , how you doing , donor girl ?
Stacy : I m fine . My friend here was just leaving .
Schuyler : Yeah , how about I get you some food , cupcake ?
Stacy : What do you want ?
Roxy : Well , Shane got his transfusion ; he got everything that he needed .
Stacy : Good . I hope he gets better now .
Roxy : [ Scoffs ] That s really nice of you . That s the same kid that you would have let drop dead because his mom would nt give his dad over to you .
Stacy : Point , please ?
Roxy : The point being that you got no hold over Gigi . It is gone . You lost your leverage .
Stacy : Are you sure you know what that means ?
Roxy : Baby , I m a lot smarter than I look , and you are totally busted . Shane is going to live and there s nothing keeping Gigi from telling Rex the ugly truth about you .
Stacy : Ha . She s not going to do that .
Roxy : Pretty sure of yourself , are nt you ?
John : What the hell are you talking about ?
Oliver : The print on the knife that stabbed Blair -- it was identified as yours , John .
Marty : Oh , come on . You do nt believe that John stabbed Blair or Talia .
Oliver : No , I do nt . But you know what ? It does nt really matter what I believe , okay ? Somebody tipped off the mayor and now he wants your head on a plate . Talia and I -- we were supposed to bring you in for questioning . That s why we were here .
John : Call it in .
Oliver : John , a murdered cop -- half the force will be over here .
John : Do it , Fish . Call it in .
Bo : I do nt know who your tipsters are . They do nt run my office .
Mayor Lowell : No , my office runs your office .
Officer : Commissioner , it s Fish on line two .
Bo : Thanks . All right , Fish , what do you got ? Did you find McBain ?
Oliver : Uh , I did , Commissioner . He s here at Dr. Lord s with Dr. Saybrooke , and , uh --
Bo : Uh what ? Fish ?
Oliver : There s a problem , sir .
Bo : What problem ?
Oliver : We -- we have an officer down , sir .
Nora : Bo , what s wrong ?
Mayor Lowell : McBain pull something ?
Nora : Oh , God .
Bo : Uh , it s -- it s Talia Sahid . Talia was attacked .
Nora : What ? Attacked how ?
Bo : She was stabbed .
Nora : Oh , my God . Is she all right ?
Bo : She s -- she s dead .
Oliver : Bo s coming over himself . He s with the mayor , John .
John : I do nt care about the mayor .
Oliver : Well , he s out to get you , okay ? He s not going to care that you ve been set up .
Marty : He s right . You were at the police station . They re going to say you stole the ring . They re going to say you re the killer .
Oliver : Would you just go , please ? John , get out of here when you still can .
Viki : Oh , Charlie . Our days in Paris , Texas -- it was time out of time . Charlie , I have a complicated life . It gets overwhelming at times and I warned you about that .
Charlie : Well you did nt seem too overwhelmed today . You seemed downright comfy with Clint s arm around your waist .
Viki : But I am . I m comfy with Bo s arm around my waist . I used to be comfortable with Asa s arm around my waist , especially when he stopped pinching . That s just how they are .
Charlie : Okay , I guess I m just being unreasonable .
Viki : When you brought me here last Thanksgiving and you showed me this place , I realized that there was nt another man in the whole world who would do something like that for me . I am with you .
Charlie : Really ? Then why are nt we living together ?
Roxy : [ Slurring ] Just to let you know , it s done , you rotten piece of garbage . Our grandson now has your blood running through his veins . God help him , but I just know he s going to be okay . Coming here , looking at you totally makes me sick . But I got what I needed , and I never have to look at your ugly mug again .
Gigi : Can I talk to you for a minute ?
Rex : About what ?
Gigi : In private . I have to tell you something .
Rex : Well , we told Shane we d be here , so --
Gigi : We ll just be right outside the room . He can see us through the window . Please ? I would nt ask you if it was nt really important .
Schuyler : Going somewhere ?
Stacy : Going to see my nephew , of course .
Schuyler : Oh , yeah ? Are you sure you should be up and about so soon ?
Stacy : You know what ? It s not like you care about me .
Schuyler : Wow , that s not true . I just think maybe you should give the kid some space with his mom and dad . He just got transfused , okay ?
Stacy : With my blood , okay ? I have the right , so just let me go .
Rex : Okay , what do you want ? Tell me so I can get back in to Shane .
Gigi : I can hardly believe that he s going to be all right . Can you ? I mean , after thinking the worst --
Rex : I know . I do nt want Shane to know it but I ve never been more scared in my life .
Gigi : I know , me too . But it s going to be okay , now . I know it is .
Rex : Yeah , as far as leukemia is concerned . I still do nt know how to tell him about us .
Gigi : Maybe -- maybe we --
Rex : Maybe we what ?
Gigi : Rex , I know I said that I could never trust you again after what happened with Stacy and --
Rex : Yeah ?
Gigi : But now with this whole thing with Shane , now that he s got the transfusion and I know he s going to get better --
Rex : Just say it , Gigi .
Gigi : Rex , it s about Stacy .
Shane : Mom ! Dad ! Mom ! Dad !
Gigi : Honey ! What -- what s wrong ?
Shane : My stomach really hurts .
Gigi : Okay , baby . I m going to get Michael .
Rex : Uh .
Michael : Shane ? What s going on , buddy ? What s wrong ?
Shane : My stomach , it s killing me .
Michael : Your stomach ? Okay .
Rex : Mike , what is it ?
Gigi : Is he rejecting the transplant ?
Michael : Give me a CBC , and I want to check his ABG s . Shane , does your stomach hurt , or do you feel nauseous ?
Shane : My stomach still hurts . I m cold , too .
Michael : Okay , well , we can take care of that .
Gigi : Let me bundle you up .
Rex : Okay , is this the , um , you know , the what do you call it ?
Gigi : The graft versus host disease ?
Michael : We wo nt know until we can get a look at his blood .
Gigi : I thought you had him on antibiotics .
Michael : Well , sometimes that s not enough , if he s running a fever . I want to bump up his meds and make sure that nothing takes hold . We re going to take care of that stomachache , all right , buddy ? We ll check for fluid overload , too .
Rex : What s that ?
Michael : Sometimes the kidneys ca nt help the high volume of fluid being introduced intravenously , so --
Rex : Mike -- whatever is going on with my son right now , you can fix it , right ? Tell me my son s going to be okay .
Roxy : Get your hands off me , you crazy old --
Nurse : What s wrong ?
Roxy : That maniac attacked me .
Nurse : That s impossible .
Roxy : Yeah , well , tell that to my throat .
Nurse : How much of this have you had ?
Roxy : Look , I just had a couple of swigs , I --
Roxy : Because my grandson s beating leukemia , so I m celebrating .
Nurse : You reek of alcohol .
Roxy : Yeah , well , that s because I spilled it on me when I was in the death grip . Listen , honey , I m not drunk . I get plastered a lot , and if I were drunk , believe me , I would know it . I m not even close . This freak tried to kill me . You should look at the monitor if you do nt believe me . It s alive .
Viki : Why are nt we living together ? We ve never discussed it , Charlie . I assumed that you were happy with the way things are .
Charlie : Oh , what , you think I m crazy about living in the Angel Square Hotel ?
Viki : I did nt say that .
Charlie : Look , Viki , I ve spent most of my life an outsider , a failure -- a drunk . But now I m sober , living one day at a time , and now my son talks to me about his problems . Calls me up and says , Hey , Dad , you want to watch the game tonight ? And I m starting a business , and I want to put roots down here in Llanview . And I would like to put those roots down with you .
Viki : I guess I ve been a little gun shy , that s all . I did nt want to move too fast . I did nt want to screw things up . Although it seems that things are being screwed up anyway .
Charlie : I want to live with you , Viki . I want to wake up with you beside me every morning for the rest of my life . I do nt want you to agree to that just because you think I got all bent out of shape about Clint .
Viki : Well , I want that , too , and it s not because you got angry .
Charlie : Really ?
Viki : Yeah , really . Let s go over to Angel Square and get your stuff tonight .
Charlie : Tonight ?
Viki : Something wrong with that ?
Charlie : Well , it s just that we do nt have a place .
Viki : Of course we do .
Charlie : Are you thinking of us living together at Llanfair ?
Viki : Charlie , it s my home . I would like it to be our home . I d like to share it with you . What s the problem ?
Michael : Listen , I know it s scary , and every little thing is going to make you jump out of your skin . Things are going to happen , okay ? There s going to be good days , and there are going to be bad days , but we are on it . Anything that s possible to be done , we re doing it .
Gigi : This pain , and the fever , it s all of a sudden . It s out of nowhere .
Michael : It can happen that way , okay ? The main thing right now is that we just manage his pain , we keep the fever down , and figure out if there s any infection .
Rex : Okay , but after that last big jolt of chemo , any little bug he catches could be fatal .
Michael : No , do nt -- just do nt . Just do nt go there , all right , man ?
Michael : Shane , are you feeling any better ?
Shane : It still hurts .
Michael : Yeah ? It s going to go down , I promise .
Stacy : Why do nt you take a five , Gigi ?
Gigi : I m not leaving Shane .
Stacy : You know what ? You think it s good for Shane to see how scared you are right now ? He s already freaked out enough as it is . Come on . You going to be okay ?
Gigi : I will , as soon as Shane is okay .
Stacy : What happened in there , anyway ?
Gigi : I do nt know . He was asleep , and then he woke up crying because his stomach hurt , and his temperature s going up , and Michael s talking an infection , and an infection could kill him , and I do nt know why this is happening !
Stacy : You know , I m not pretending to know the way God works , but when I walked up , it sounded to me like you were about to break your solemn promise to him .
Gigi : What ?
Stacy : You were going to tell Rex the truth , were nt you ? I saw you , so you ca nt deny it . You were going to tell Rex that you broke up with him so that I would give Shane my stem cells . Man , it would be a shame if he needed another transplant and I was nt here to give it to him . See what happens when you mess with God ? If Shane died , it would be your fault .
Nora : Antonio -- we have to tell Antonio .
Mayor Lowell : You said Officer Sahid was stabbed at Dorian Lord s house .
Bo : That s right .
Mayor Lowell : Is nt that where John McBain moved after he married Blair Cramer ?
Bo : What about it ?
Mayor Lowell : And you -- you sent officer Sahid there to bring McBain back ?
Bo : Yes , I sent her there . Her and her partner , to find McBain .
Mayor Lowell : Why are we standing here ? Let s go .
Oliver : What are you waiting for , John ? Would you get out of here , while you still can ?
John : Fish , you ve got to do your job .
Marty : Do nt worry about that . The police are on their way .
Oliver : No , they re not going to give him a fair shot . Talia said so herself . You made the mayor look stupid when you broke into Todd Manning s house and found Dr. Saybrooke there . Hey , the mayor does nt care who did this to Talia . He s going to hang it on you .
Marty : Listen to him , please . They re going to say you did this . They re going to say -- your prints are probably on that knife , too .
Oliver : And you re not going to be able to find who did this from the inside of a jail cell .
Marty : John , please , listen to him . I m begging you . Please , go save yourself .
Mayor Lowell : Where is he ? Where s McBain ? Where s McBain ?
John : Right here , Mayor .
Charlie : I guess I was just hoping that I could -- I could build us a house , maybe out in the woods somewhere .
Viki : Oh .
Charlie : I mean , I just do nt know how to live at Llanfair .
Viki : Why not ?
Charlie : Because it s so big . There are servants .
Viki : Yeah , there are servants . The thing is , I do nt think of them as servants . I think of them as , you know , the people who run the house . George is in charge of the garden , Lois in the kitchen , you know .
Charlie : Okay , see , that s the thing . I think of Lois as a friend . I do nt know how to walk down to the kitchen in the morning and say , Lois , I ll have two eggs over easy .
Viki : I do nt think she would mind if you made your own breakfast .
Charlie : Okay , maybe , and George is a whole nother deal . I mean , I bought a few flats of annuals to put in the garden , a few extras , and he s still not speaking to me .
Viki : So you want to feel like you re the boss ?
Charlie : I just want to feel like I m home .
Viki : Oh , Charlie . I do nt know what else to say to you , except that for me , home is wherever you are .
Charlie : Well -- I think you found the exact right way to say it .
Nurse : This patient s condition is unchanged .
Roxy : Hey , look at these marks . They did nt get there by themselves .
Nurse : I do nt know how it happened .
Roxy : What do you think , I took my own hands and I put them around my neck ? That did nt happen . I swear on my grandson s life . This freak over here is not as out of it as everybody seems to think that he is .
Nurse : It can happen that patients in this condition experience an occasional muscle spasm , an involuntary movement that might be construed --
Roxy : It s not involuntary , I m telling you .
Nurse : I do nt care what you re telling me ! Visiting hours are over . I m asking you to leave . This time , why do nt you not come back ?
Roxy : All right , I m out of here . But I got three words for you . Watch your freaking back .
Gigi : God knows that I love my son .
Stacy : And you promised God that you would do anything , whatever it took , if he would save Shane s life .
Gigi : But why would God want me to give up Rex ? God is about love .
Stacy : And I love Rex .
Gigi : Well , he does nt love you .
Stacy : Well , he thinks I m pretty great right now .
Gigi : He s grateful .
Stacy : It s more than that .
Gigi : It s not love , Stacy .
Stacy : Well , it can be , and it will be , because God meant it to be .
Gigi : I do nt think God works that way .
Stacy : Who knows how God works anyway ? All I know is that you ve been backtracking on a promise you made him , and now , all of a sudden , Shane s really sick . So what do you take from that ?
Gigi : I do nt know .
Stacy : I ca nt believe you would play with your son s life like that , just to keep a guy .
Gigi : Well , is nt that what you were doing ? You were ready to let Shane die so you could have Rex .
Stacy : But I did nt . I stuck to my end of the deal . I was nt like you . You better go to confession , honey . Make a serious act of contrition . You lied to God . You spit in his face , and he is mad .
Rex : Hey , Stacy , everything okay out here ?
Gigi : How s Shane ?
Rex : He s feeling better .
Stacy : See , Gigi ? I told you he d be okay . I just knew he d make it through this one , too .
Viki : So , do you think you can handle it ? Living at Llanfair ?
Charlie : Is it okay if I bring my Stevie Wonder CDs ?
Viki : Sure , but it s not necessary . I have everything the man ever recorded .
Charlie : You do ?
Viki : No , Charlie , I do nt . I was joking . Besides , at Llanfair , we groove on Fred Waring and the Pennsylvanians .
Charlie : Okay , okay , I m sorry .
Viki : If you re uncomfortable living there , we could always have that house in the woods .
Charlie : Hey , as long as you want me to be with you , I m okay .
Viki : I m all yours -- signed , sealed , delivered . I m right here .
Schuyler : Stacy Morasco -- what ?
Roxy : Okay , everybody , let s par - tay !
Roxy : So what s going on ?
Rex : Well , we had a little scare , but chemo boy is fighting back .
Roxy : What kind of scare ?
Stacy : They thought Shane s body was rejecting the transplant , but the crisis is over . Everything s going the way it s supposed to .
Roxy : Hey , let s talk , Gigi .
Nurse : It s time to take your temp again .
Stacy : I hope it was nt my blood that was causing Shane problems .
Rex : What are you talking about ? It s your blood that s saving his life . He s going to live because of you , Stacy . I will never forget this .
Roxy : What the hell happened ? What s boom - boom doing in there with Rex ? Did nt you tell him about her ?
Gigi : Roxy , I was going to , but I did nt , okay ? I just ca nt .
Nurse : That woman is crazy . You re as out of it as ever .
John : I found Officer Sahid face down in the pool . Whoever did this to her --
Mayor Lowell : Whoever did this ? I want this man arrested for capital murder . Do it .
Oliver : John McBain , you re under arrest . You have the right to remain silent . Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law .

### Dialogue:
Reva : Maura , honey , no , sweetie , that s just the point . We will still all be together at Christmas . No , no , Shayne has nt exactly said he was coming home yet . But I thought maybe if you said you were coming home , then he would change his mind , too . And then he d be ... no , I understand . I do , I do . I love you , too , sweetheart . Tell Paris I said hello .
Jeffrey : 20 minutes . 20 minutes for a cup of coffee . I hate this time of year . Everything is one big line . Here .
Reva : Thanks . Let s get one .
Jeffrey : A Christmas tree ?
Reva : Yes . The biggest one they have .
Jeffrey : Does this mean that Marah and Shayne are coming home ?
Reva : No .
Jeffrey : Then who s the Christmas tree for ?
Reva : It s for us . I want to do it up big - time , you know . Tinsel and garland and popcorn strings , and the works . ( Laughs )
Jeffrey : Okay , whatever you want .
Reva : Okay . Which one do you like ?
Jeffrey : The green one .
Reva : You know what ? You re hopeless , absolutely hopeless . This is it . There s no need to look further . This is it . This is perfect .
Jeffrey : That s beautiful .
Reva : How much for this one right here ?
Vender : It s not for sale . That guy just bought it . Jingle bells , jingle bells , jingle all the way
Reva : Oh , but that tree was talking to me .
Jeffrey : You might want to get help for that .
Reva : ( Laughs ) What else do you have ?
Jeffrey : Excuse me . Merry Christmas . That tree , whatever you paid for it , I ll double it .
Josh : Maybe Edmund was trying to hurt you . Maybe you did nt mean for him to fall .
Will : You never believe me .
Josh : Will , this is a whole lot more serious than you locking your brother in a barn , okay ? You need to answer me . Were you in the choir loft when Edmund fell ?
Will : I love Uncle Edmund . He s my friend .
Josh : Okay . But we re going to talk with your mom about this .
Will : She ll never believe you .
Cassie : Hey .
Will : Mommy !
Cassie : Honey . What s wrong , sweetie ? What s happening ?
Will : He s saying I did bad things .
Cassie : Bad things ?
Will : I was just trying to say good - bye to Uncle Edmund .
Josh : I found him at the hospital at Edmund s bedside .
Will : I miss him ! I miss him so much .
Harley : It feels better now ,
Cyrus : What ?
Harley : Us . Now that we ve admitted ... you know , whatever this is .
Cyrus : Yeah , whatever .
Harley : And that we re not going to act on it .
Cyrus : Of course not .
Harley : Because you have a really good thing going with Marina and you love her .
Cyrus : Yeah , I do .
Harley : So there you are .
Cyrus : There you are .
Marina : I mean , you are ... you re way off on this whole Harley and Cyrus thing .
Remy : I do nt think so . There s something going on with them .
Marina : Yeah , they re working together . Okay , all three of us are .
Remy : It did nt look like work to me .
Marina : What is that supposed to mean ?
Remy : Marina , I saw them together . He was holding her , okay ? Sorry .
Marina : Look , Boudreau , whatever it is that you saw , or you think that you saw , you did nt , okay ? Because Harley , she s going through a lot right now , and Cyrus was probably just comforting her .
Remy : Huh ? Well , there s a lot of ways to comfort . This is what I saw . Now , does this feel like comfort to you .
Marina : Maybe . I mean , I do nt ... I do nt know . Did you see something ? Were they kissing or something ?
Remy : I could nt tell . But what do you think a man wants when he holds a woman like this ?
Marina : I do nt know . Just stop , okay ? Just ... just stop .
Remy : Marina , I m not trying to hurt you . You re my friend , maybe the only one I have .
Marina : Oh , really ? Because you re not acting like it right now .
Remy : Why ? Why , why ? Because I m trying to tell you the truth ? I was there , remember .
Marina : There for what ?
Remy : When Danny left you and went back to Michelle . Now , I m telling you , you better mark your turf quick or it s going to happen again .
Marina : If you re waiting for a thank you , do nt .
Remy : Marina , I m not making this up . Okay , I m just trying to help you , which is a lot more than your boyfriend and aunt are doing .
Marina : What were you even doing with them ?
Remy : Well , I left something at Harley s house and I went back to get it , and I saw them together .
Marina : What were you doing at Harley s house ?
Remy : They were questioning me . Phillip hired me to drop something off to Zach , and ...
Marina : Oh , whoa ! Phillip ? You were working for Phillip Spaulding ?
Remy : I did a job .
Marina : And Cyrus and Harley busted you ?
Remy : Ding , ding , ding .
Marina : And now you are trying to get back at them .
Remy : I would nt do that to you , Marina . Not to you .
Marina : And so you re not lying ? Or even just exaggerating what you think you might have saw , just a little bit ?
Remy : I swear on Tammy s memory .
Marina : Okay . Okay , so say ... that you did see something between Cyrus and Harley . He s a flirt . I mean , that s who he is . He flirts with everybody . He flirts with grandmothers and waitresses everywhere we go . But we ... we have something , he and I , and he risked his life for me , and I practically lost my family .
Remy : So fight for him . Like I should have for Tammy and Natalia . Fight dirty if you have to .
Marina : Remy , she s my aunt .
Remy : So what ? She s going through a divorce .
Marina : So ?
Remy : So that means she s not the thinking straight . Look at my sister , calm and level - headed Mel .
Marina : What about her ?
Remy : When she was divorcing Rick , it messed her up . She almost climbed into bed with Jeffrey ONeill , and they were never even in a collapsed building together .
Cyrus : I ll get it . Here , I ll take it .
Harley : I never felt this messed up in my life .
Cyrus : It s okay to feel messed up .
Harley : Because this is what is messed up , and wrong . Because it feels ...
Cyrus : What does it feel ?
Harley : It should feel bad .
Cyrus : But it does nt . And that s ... that s a problem .
Harley : A big one .
Cyrus : Yeah .
Harley : Harley . Yeah . Sounds good . I ll be there . That s the guy from Remy s card game . He has information about Phillip . He wants me to meet him at Co2 .
Cyrus : You ca nt drive .
Harley : I have to .
Cyrus : Today was rough . You thought you were going to see your crazy ex- husband who tried to ruin your life and take your kids . It s okay to feel a little rattled . It s okay to ask for help .
Harley : Maybe it s better that we get out of here . Probably .
Reva : Jeffrey , I think I found it . Another tree . It s great !
Man : I do nt want that tree anymore .
Vender : You said it was perfect .
Man : I ll get a different one later .
Vender : It s yours if you want it ?
Reva : Um ... yeah , sure . Why do nt you go ahead and write up the ticket ? Thanks .
Jeffrey : Merry Christmas .
Reva : Not for that guy .
Jeffrey : What ? What are you talking about ? I gave him a fair price . It was a win - win .
Reva : I get the tree , and he gets to live .
Jeffrey : What ? You think I threatened him ?
Reva : You did nt ?
Jeffrey : Reva , it was a fair deal . Okay , it was a good deal for him .
Reva : You could have set him up for a murder .
Jeffrey : Oh , okay , I get it . This is about Edmund . Nothing like killing the Christmas spirit .
Reva : No , I just get the feeling that you like this sort of thing . That you miss it , and that maybe taking on Edmund the way you did makes you miss it . Reminds you of how much you like it .
Jeffrey : Reva , I am an honest citizen . As a matter of fact , they want me back at D.A.
Reva : I know , and that s fine . I m mad at you . It s just that ...
Jeffrey : But ...
Reva : But , there s no buts . We got into this relationship with no strings , no judgments , not trying to change each other .
Jeffrey : Okay . So you re cool with it ?
Reva : Yeah . Yeah , I m cool with it . Just do nt lie to me .
Jeffrey : I think he might have wet his pants .
Reva : You must be very proud .
Jeffrey : I am a little bit , actually .
Reva : Hmmm .
Jeffrey : Hey , you know I ve got to have some excitement in my life .
Reva : And you think I do nt want excitement ? ( Laughs )
Josh : How s Will ?
Cassie : I do nt know . He would nt unlock his door . What exactly were you saying to him ? I thought things were going better between you two .
Josh : We just had some things we had to clear up .
Cassie : Like ?
Josh : I ran into Rick and James at the hospital . James told me that he did nt just fall off the stage accidentally . He was pushed .
Cassie : And you think Will pushed James ?
Josh : Well , he was near him when it happened . And Will ended up playing the role that James was supposed to play , right ? The lead role .
Cassie : Did James accuse Will ?
Josh : He did nt see who pushed him .
Cassie : Well , then it could have been any other boy , or James could just be wrong .
Josh : He could be . Or it could be possible that Will was the one who did it .
Cassie : Josh , it s no wonder Will s upset .
Josh : Cassie , has it occurred to you that we do nt actually know where Will was when Edmund fell ?
Cassie : You ve got to be kidding me . You think will pushed Edmund ? He s a little boy .
Josh : I m not saying it was deliberate .
Cassie : Okay , why ? Why , why would he want to hurt his best friend ?
Josh : Look , this is hard for me to even bring up to you .
Cassie : Is it ? Is it really ? It does nt seem like it s hard for you .
Josh : What does that mean ?
Cassie : It just means that Will has been tough on you , and I think maybe you re just not seeing the best in him .
Josh : Maybe you re not seeing the worst .
Cassie : Josh , he needs us . You should see the pictures that he s drawn .
Josh : Cassie , he could be troubled .
Cassie : Of course he s troubled . Of course he s troubled . The kid s been through hell . Look at these ! Look at these pictures .
Josh : It s you .
Cassie : Yes . It s me abandoning him . The only thing Will needs from us is more love , not less . All those years I thought sending Will back to San Cristobel was what was best for him , was what he wanted . And it turns out he was just saying that to make me feel better .
Josh : I can see why these upset you .
Cassie : He s been through more than any kid should ever have to go through . And if we start accusing him now of these horrible things ...
Will : I m hungry .
Cassie : All right , sweetie , why do nt I get started on dinner ?
Will : Okay .
Josh : Will , could I ... can I talk to you outside for just a minute ?
Cassie : Josh , please .
Josh : It s okay . I just want to apologize .
Cassie : It s okay , Will . Go ahead , sweetie . Go on .
Josh : Have a seat , Will . I m sorry if I upset you .
Will : And ?
Josh : And ... no matter what happens , you and I both love your mom . We both want what s best for her . Now , Will , I do nt believe what happened to your Uncle Edmund was an accident , and you still have nt told us where you were .
Will : That s the worst apology ever .
Josh : I understand that your Uncle Edmund has a way of making people upset , and maybe I do that sometimes , too . But if you were in the loft with him and something happened and you got upset or you got angry , and then he fell ...
Will : I did nt push him .
Josh : Okay , you know what ? Do nt do that . No tears , no excuses , Will . If you were involved in Edmund s fall , your mom and I can help you , but you have to be honest with us . You have to tell us .
Will : I did nt do anything . Can I go inside now ?
Josh : Not yet . There is one more thing that I want to make very clear to you : If anything else bad happens around you , I ll be watching .
Reva : Hey . Hi , sweetheart , how are you ? You know what really living on the edge would be about ? Having Christmas at our place this year . You can even invite Ava .
Jeffrey : Well , wait a minute . What about Olivia ? She might want to tag along .
Reva : Well , what the hell . It s the holidays , right ?
Jeffrey : Okay . You know what I say ? I say we go home and decorate this thing and get really crazy and do something like spike the eggnog . ( Laughter )
Reva : All right ! ( Cell phone rings )
Jeffrey : Wait a second . Yeah ?
Cassie : Hey , it s Cassie . Are you busy ?
Jeffrey : Well , as a matter of fact , you re not going to believe this , but Reva and I just got a Christmas tree .
Cassie : Well , bring her over here , if you would . It s kind of important .
Jeffrey : Okay , we ll be right over .
Harley : This guy s going to be here soon . You do nt have to baby - sit me .
Cyrus : Well , it s my case , too . Oops .
Harley : What in the world are you doing ?
Cyrus : Well , you said you did it a hundred times . No matter what you order--
Harley : I do nt always--
Cyrus : Sometimes four ?
Harley : Sometimes not at all . Maybe today I feel like having two .
Cyrus : Really ?
Harley : But , seriously , Cyrus , you should go . I m working the case alone .
Cyrus : You do nt get to decide that . I think you were right . Maybe we should nt work together .
Harley : It does nt solve anything . You need a job to stay in this country , and with your record , who else is going to hire you except me ?
Cyrus : Yeah , but what about this ...
Harley : There is no this . Your my niece s boyfriend , we work together , blah , blah , blah , end of story .
Cyrus : End of story .
Harley : We can do this . I know I can do this . I need a little coffee after I get through it .
Cyrus : Do you ever think of what might have happened if we d met first ?
Harley : No . Maybe once . It would nt have changed anything . I would still be with Gus , you know . That would nt have changed . And you would have still wound up with Marina .
Cyrus : Yeah , I think so , too .
Harley : I just do nt see any circumstances where we could possibly wind up a couple . What ? What ?
Cyrus : ( Laughs )
Marina : Hey . Just the people I was looking for .
Harley : Hey , Marina .
Marina : Hey , you ready to pack some boxes ?
Cyrus : Yeah .
Marina : Did Cyrus tell you we re moving in together ?
Harley : No , he did nt .
Marina : Yeah , yeah . Alex signed ... said that she signed off on the divorce papers , and we figured , why wait ?
Cyrus : Yeah . You ve got to live somewhere . ( Chuckles )
Marina : Oh , it s more than just that . It s a big step for us .
Cyrus : Yeah , you re right . Think you re ready to spend 24/7 with me ?
Marina : Oh , gosh , is that all there is in a day ?
Cyrus : ( Laughs )
Marina : So , do you have any advice ?
Harley : Advice ?
Marina : Yeah . I mean , I figured you ve had more experience living with people than I have .
Harley : I m the last person anybody should get relationship advice from .
Marina : Okay . Well , if you think of something , let us know . I ... I really respect your opinion , and I trust you .
Harley : I am sure that whatever problems you guys face , you ll get through them no problem .
Marina : Thank you .
Cyrus : We should go back to your place .
Marina : Our place .
Cyrus : ( Laughs )
Harley : Hey , you know what ? I do have a piece of advice . If what you have is ... is true love , you guys should hold onto it with everything that you have got because it s very rare . And I want only the best for you , my Marina .
Reva : So this talk that Cassie wants to have , do you think it s good news or bad news ?
Jeffrey : I do nt know .
Cassie : Hey .
Reva : Hey .
Jeffrey : Hey . Well , should we come in ?
Cassie : Actually , I kind of wanted to talk to you alone , but Josh is inside .
Reva : Okay . Good .
Jeffrey : So , has something changed with Edmund or ...
Cassie : No . No , no . He ... he still has nt woken up yet .
Jeffrey : Good . I mean , well , you know .
Cassie : No , no . I know what you mean . Look , I ... I just really wanted to apologize .
Jeffrey : Okay .
Cassie : At the church , when I found out what your real plans for Edmund were , I just ... all I could think about was Josh and Will and how Will would be affected if he lost the person that was closest to him . That s all I could think about .
Jeffrey : Well , that s what makes you a good mother .
Cassie : Well , I still ... I should nt have torn into you .
Jeffrey : Well , I was , you know , less than forthcoming with you , so ...
Cassie : Yeah , but that s because of the position we put you in . I mean , Josh came to you because Edmund started threatening us , just like I came to you about Alan . We re always coming to you .
Jeffrey : Cassie , I m glad to help .
Cassie : I know . I know , but it just does nt make sense for us to ask you to do our dirty work and then blame you when it gets messy .
Jeffrey : Why is it that Edmund gets to wreak havoc in everyone s lives , and then we have to stand around feeling guilty for dealing with him ?
Cassie : Do you feel guilty ?
Jeffrey : No . Edmund brought this on himself .
Cassie : So , you do nt think Edmund falling was an accident ?
Jeffrey : What ?
Cassie : Like , just what you said about Edmund bringing this on himself . It sounds like you think that someone pushed him .
Josh : You re absolutely sure about that ?
Reva : ( Chuckles ) Am I sure ? You should have heard Marah going on and on and on about Paris at Christmastime , how magical it is , blah , blah , blah . And I do nt think we re going to get Shayne back from Africa any time soon .
Josh : I guess I was just hoping that this would be the year .
Reva : I know . I do nt think they re really quite used to the idea of you being with Cassie yet . And now that I m with Jeffrey , I would nt blame them if they wanted to stay overseas forever .
Josh : We did okay with the kids , right ?
Reva : I think so .
Josh : I just mean , I know that you and I had a lot of ups and downs over the years , but ... but the kids , they turned out all right .
Reva : Yes . What s going on ?
Harley : Cyrus . Do you think Marina suspects us ? No . What s to suspect ?
Marina : Come on , Harley , answer . Okay . No . What s to suspect ? Hey .
Cyrus : Hey . Is it mine ?
Marina : Yeah , yeah . I ... I think it fell onto one of the boxes . I ... I found it when I was unpacking .
Cyrus : Oh , good thing you re a snoop .
Marina : I m not snooping .
Cyrus : ( Laughs )
Marina : Cyrus , you would tell me if there was a problem , right ?
Cyrus : What , you mean like you snoring ?
Marina : I do nt snore . I m being serious . I mean , you ... you would tell me if ... if things were moving too fast , or if you felt pressured or something .
Cyrus : Do I look pressured ?
Marina : Well , no . I ... we just never talked about any of this , you know , you moving in . And Alex said that she d divorce you . And then I ... I just assumed that you d want to .
Cyrus : Well , it s kind of why I brought my boxes over , so that we could live together .
Marina : I m trying to be serious .
Cyrus : I hate serious .
Marina : I know . I know , but our whole relationship has been really unusual , you know . I mean , we did nt ... we did nt have a first date , or a second date , or ... I do nt know if we had any dates . And now , now we re living together , and ... and I just ... I just want to make sure it s what you want . I mean , because if it s not what you want , just please just tell me right now .
Cyrus : Uh , I do nt know what to say .
Marina : Just be honest with me .
Cyrus : I am . I m not very good at this .
Marina : Not good at what ?
Cyrus : Talking , feelings . I mean , it s not my forte . You know , adventures , jet - setting around the globe , that kind of thing , I m pretty great at that . But the things that you want to hear ...
Marina : I just want to know you want to be with me .
Cyrus : Well , how about if I show you ?
Harley : Come on , Cyrus . You asked me if Marina is suspicious , and then nothing ?
Cassie : Sorry . R.J. just had a question with his homework .
Jeffrey : No problem .
Cassie : Homework . Wow , it sounds so normal , does nt it , with everything else going on ?
Jeffrey : Well , you know , that s what I wanted to tell you , Cassie . I do nt think there is anything else going on . I think that what happened to Edmund was an accident .
Cassie : Are you sure ?
Jeffrey : Yes . I know that , you know , Reva said that you saw her by the stairs , but I m telling you , I saw Edmund fall , and there was nt anyone else near him .
Cassie : But you d probably say that even if you saw Reva push him yourself .
Jeffrey : Yeah , probably . But lucky for us , I do nt have to lie . Cassie , Edmund was alone .
Cassie : Okay . So he just lost his balance and fell ?
Jeffrey : Maybe . Maybe he tripped over something . You know , it was dark up there in the loft . Or maybe , Cassie , maybe he did it on purpose .
Cassie : Edmund tried to kill himself ? No . I do nt ... he is just way too selfish for that .
Jeffrey : Well , I do nt know about that . You know , he could nt be prince anymore . He could nt have you anymore .
Cassie : Oh , you do nt think he still wants me ?
Jeffrey : What other possible reason would he have for coming to this town ?
Cassie : Will .
Jeffrey : Will was a cover , Cassie . I believe that Edmund came here with the belief that he could win you back .
Cassie : After everything he s done to me , how could he possibly think that ?
Jeffrey : It s Edmund , okay ? That s the way his mind works . And then , once he saw how happy you and Josh were together , I mean , what else did he have to live for ? And if he could make his accident look like something suspicious , well , then , that s one more way he could cause us all grief . I mean , it s not unthinkable , is it ?
Cassie : No . I ... I guess I hope that is all that happened , because if no one did this to Edmund , then everything can just go back to normal .
Josh : I guess I m just feeling like maybe we did nt appreciate the kids while we had them .
Reva : I think there were several things we did nt appreciate quite enough .
Josh : That s true . Yes .
Reva : So what is going on ? Did you have a parishioner come to you with some kind of kid problem ?
Josh : No , no . It s actually much closer to home than that . It s Will .
Reva : Ah . Is he having trouble being here ?
Josh : I think it s more than that . He s got issues .
Reva : What kind of issues ?
Josh : Well , he s been acting out a lot with R.J. and with me . But I had an interesting conversation with James , who told me that his fall from the stage was nt an accident . He was pushed .
Reva : And , what , you think Will did it ?
Josh : Yes , I do .
Reva : What does Cassie think about that ?
Josh : She does nt want to believe it . She still has feelings of guilt about sending Will to San Cristobel , feeling like she abandoned him , that kind of thing .
Reva : Well , I can understand that . I certainly felt guilty about giving up Jonathan . And you know something , he did nt set those fires to have fun . He did it because he felt deserted . He wanted to hurt other people the way he d been hurt .
Josh : But eventually , you ... you called him on it , right ?
Reva : Well , yes , because it was the only thing I could do to try to help him .
Josh : Well , see , that s kind of what I think this situation is with Will , but we wo nt be able to help him until we face the truth about what he s been doing .
Reva : Well , I m sure you ll figure out a way to help him , because you always do . And you should just be happy that you re getting to Will early enough , which is something I did nt do with Jonathan .
Josh : Thanks . I needed that .
Reva : You re welcome . ( Laughs )
Harley : Okay , just ... leave it alone . ( Knock at the door ) Wow , am I glad to see you !
Cassie : Wow . Something wrong ?
Harley : No . I just ... I need a distraction .
Cassie : From Cyrus ?
Harley : Could we find something else to talk about except him ?
Cassie : Okay !
Harley : No , I mean , you must have come here for a reason . Do you have a problem ? Something big , something that will keep me distracted ?
Cassie : Well , I would nt exactly call it a problem . I just ... actually , I wanted to set up some play dates for Will and Zach .
Harley : That s all ?
Cassie : Well , I want it to be a regular thing , you know ? Maybe Will could join Zach s basketball team , or maybe the Scouts , or maybe they could do both of them together .
Harley : Okay . It all sounds good . What s going on ?
Cassie : I just , I ... I think it would be good for Will to be busy .
Harley : Because of what happened to Edmund ?
Cassie : That and he and Josh just are kind of at odds . And I just figure , you know , the busier Will is , the less chance they have to butt heads .
Harley : It s always really hard to try to bring a child into an already existing family . I should know . I m still working on it with Daisy .
Cassie : Yeah , I guess that s it , and Will s age , maybe , or that he s already been through so many changes , but he s just not warming up to Josh as a father figure .
Harley : That s so weird because Josh is such a dad . What does he say ?
Cassie : Well , I keep reminding myself the last time Josh had to raise someone else s kid , it was Jonathan .
Harley : Oh . Well , what s Will doing ?
Cassie : What do you mean ?
Harley : If Josh is comparing Will to Jonathan , will must be doing something big .
Cassie : Oh , my gosh , no . I mean , Will is nothing like Jonathan . He s a little boy . How much trouble could he cause ?
Josh : Will , could you come down here , please , help me set the table ? Hello ?
Jeffrey : Trouble ? Reva forgot her phone .
Josh : Okay .
Jeffrey : Got it .
Josh : You and Reva should join us for Christmas dinner .
Jeffrey : Is nt that the busiest day of the year for ministers ?
Josh : I think you re confusing me with Santa Claus . I just ... I have one sermon in the morning , and then I m done . Cassie s cooking , so you and Reva should be here .
Jeffrey : Does that mean you re not angry anymore ?
Josh : Well , you should have told me that you were going to change plans . You should have consulted me .
Jeffrey : Right . You know what ? I think we re going to pass on that invitation .
Josh : This is not just about us , Jeffrey . Okay , Cassie and Reva are sisters . Reva is the boy s aunt , so they should all be together at Christmastime .
Jeffrey : And you and I will just grin and bear it ?
Josh : Pretty much , yes .
Jeffrey : I ll run it by Reva .
Josh : Okay .
Jeffrey : You know what ? We really should all be celebrating because everyone pretty much got what they wanted .
Josh : A man took a bad fall . He was almost killed .
Jeffrey : Not just any man . Edmund . You know what ? Maybe prayer actually works . Maybe God actually listened to us and helped us get rid of a madman .
Josh : Unfortunately , I do nt believe God had anything to do with Edmund s fall . Will ?
Will : Aunt Reva ?
Reva : Will ! Who are you here with ?
Will : I m alone .
Reva : Does your mom know you re here ?
Will : I m not supposed to tell you .
Reva : Tell me what ?
Will : Josh needs you .
Ava : Look at those ! Hello ! Use them .
Gus : You did nt think I d like that ?
Josh : We have to be especially careful about who s watching over him right now .
Reva : Maybe we should get you home . What do you say ?

You are a helpful, respectful and honest assistant. Your task is to summarize the following dialogue. Your answer should be based on the provided dialogue only.
### Dialogue:
Zach : Do you think we re depriving our boys ?
Kendall : No , no . Of course not . They re traveling the world on a yacht . I m just doing what I do . I m just worrying . That s all . Spike and Ian , they re gon na be fine .
Bianca : And you can always bring them to visit their cousins .
Kendall : Yeah . Yeah , and when we do find a place to settle down , well , we ll have a brand - new home .
Zach : But you miss Pine Valley .
Kendall : Well , sure , but we needed to do this . It s helped us . It s helped our marriage .
Zach : At what cost ? Easy for me to leave . I ve nothing invested . You do , a little more than I realized .
Liza s voice : Tad , it s Liza . Listen . I need to see you . There is a problem with Damon s final adoption papers . Well , listen . I m at the club . I m catching up with some work . Come by if you can .
Krystal : Hey , Tad , I m glad you re here . You remember Caleb , right ? I was wondering if you could help him with something . Come on . Thank you . Caleb --
Caleb : Hmm ?
Krystal : You are looking for a P.I. , and Thaddeus Martin here is the best .
Caleb : Do nt need him .
Tad : Just as charming as ever .
Krystal : All right , Tad . Be nice .
Tad : I do nt have to be . I m sure working for Jethro here would be a barrel of monkeys , but I got places to go .
Krystal : Tad , Tad , listen . Caleb is helping Angie get the hospital back from David .
Tad : For real ?
Krystal : Yeah , and he s got all the legal stuff covered , but , you know , he could probably use some investigating . Dig up some dirt , you know , legal dirt .
Tad : Krystal , I ve been trying to nail Hayward for half of my life . Trust me , nothing is gon na stick .
David : You know something ? For an airplane mechanic , you do nt seem to be very skilled at retrieving your own voice mail messages . Why are nt you returning my calls ? I paid you an obscene amount of money to work with me , to stay put where I can find you if I needed to . Now , where the hell are you ? Call me back , damn it .
Greenlee s voice : Our agreement was that I could leave any time I wanted .
David s voice : You are leaving for all the wrong reasons . This is not the time to run .
Greenlee : I overheard David on the phone trying to track down the mechanic . Did you get anything on his license plate ?
Ryan : No . The car was stolen , but he s obviously dodging David , which is good news .
Greenlee : That s not enough . We need to find him .
Ryan : Greenlee , as long as he s missing , you re fine .
Greenlee : David still has all his evidence that makes me look like a killer .
Ryan : We re gon na find that evidence , and we re gon na destroy it .
Greenlee : No . I know David . I know he s never gon na stop looking . That mechanic is gon na get on the witness stand and say what David has paid him to say , that I am responsible for Erica s plane crash . I m gon na go to prison .
Ryan : It s not gon na happen .
Greenlee : What if this does nt end ? What if I ca nt get out of this marriage ? I m gon na have to stay David s wife forever .
Ryan : You will not .
Greenlee : I just want this to be over . I hate that I feel trapped . I hate what he is doing to me . Sometimes I wish I could just kill him .
Bianca : I m gon na go check on the kids .
Kendall : Zach , you do nt have to be sorry for anything .
Zach : Think I m being selfish ?
Kendall : For wanting to take care of your family ?
Zach : For not recognizing what I m asking you to walk away from .
Kendall : No . I was just being sentimental . That s how I get when I m around Bianca . Yes . I miss Pine Valley , but I wo nt put our marriage at risk , not again .
Zach : I took you from your home .
Kendall : My home is where my family is . Gon na go say good night .
Zach : She s good .
Bianca : What do you mean ?
Zach : Well , pretending that it does nt bother her to walk away from here .
Bianca : Oh , we always miss Pine Valley when we leave , because it s not just a place to us . It s a part of who we are .
Tad : You re wasting your time . Hayward has blown up more lives than you could possibly count , and he always gets away with it . He goes after women , children , tears entire families apart , including what he did to my marriage to Krystal .
Krystal : You know , Caleb has heard all that . I do nt think he needs the details .
Caleb : Tell me more .
Tad : Ok . The man made a hobby out of going after your cousin Dixie . She and I had a little girl together . We had a -- her name is Kathy . Anyway , because of Hayward , we almost lost her . Took me five years to get her back . By the time I did , Dixie was dead .
Krystal : Tad , you know , it s ok . Why do nt I just walk you out , all right ?
Tad : No , no , no . Pure misery . That s all Hayward has ever given me or anybody who goes near him . That s all he ever gives this entire town . You re wasting your time . Worst part is , I think he loves every minute .
Caleb : Hey , maybe we can work together . Ca nt have a guy like that running the hospital , can we ?
Tad : Ok . I ll see what I can do .
David : Well , this is perfect timing . Just the woman I need to speak to .
Liza : Not right now , actually . I m waiting for someone .
David : Hmm .
Liza : Oh , I m sorry , Dave . Did nt you hear what I said ?
David : Yeah . Yeah . I heard exactly what you said . I m clear .
Liza : Wow . You know , even blackmailers should have some manners .
David : I hired you for counsel , not judgments or commentary .
Liza : Ok . Talk fast .
David : The mechanic that sabotaged Erica s plane seems to have disappeared . Now , in the event that I can not track him down --
Liza : Right . You want to know if you ve got enough evidence to threaten your wife ? Yeah . Maybe . So can we please just drop this right now , ok ?
David : What s going on with you ? Why are you so stressed out ? Is it because your date has nt shown up yet ?
Liza : This is not a date .
David : You ve already eaten . You read the paper . Sorry to break this to you , sweetie , but it looks like your date stood you up .
Liza : He s gon na show .
David : Please tell me you re not waiting for Martin . You can do so much better than Tad .
Greenlee : You did nt tell me Madison was here .
Madison : Sorry for interrupting .
Ryan : No , no . You did nt .
Greenlee : I did nt actually mean that I wanted --
Madison : I know .
Greenlee : You know , I was just frustrated . I was venting .
Madison : I understand . I know what it s like to be trapped in a horrible marriage .
Greenlee : Your husband .
Madison : Henry s weapon of choice was emotional abuse . He convinced me that I was worthless , that if I ever left him , I would just end up alone because no one else would ever want me .
Ryan : Hey , Emms . Oh . Excuse me for a second . Hi .
Greenlee : I do nt get it . I mean , one minute , you re on my case for dragging Ryan into my problems . Now you re trying to bond with me ?
Madison : Just because I want you , like , 900 miles from Ryan does nt mean I do nt like you .
Liza : So how are you and Greenlee doing ?
David : Well , we re doing great . In fact , we re getting closer every day .
Liza : If you say so .
David : Is it so hard for you to believe that she could love me ?
Liza : Actually , no , but , then again , I am out of my mind .
David : I knew there was a reason why I liked you .
Liza : So Marissa is now working for Caleb Cooney ? I met that guy , and I now about his little reputation . Guy is a rock star . Uh - oh . We hit a nerve .
David : Marissa has been going through a hard time lately . I did nt realize how bad until -- I really should ve done something sooner .
Liza : What , is it about J.R. ?
David : Yeah . He crushed her , my sweet , beautiful daughter . We were so close , Liza . Marissa and I were finally starting to build on something . Now I may have lost that chance for good .
Liza : I miss Colby . I miss her so much .
Zach : All right . I ll be in the lounge if you need me .
Kendall : Ok .
Bianca : I ll go get the papers .
Kendall : Ok . What s this ?
Bianca : It s our new lipstick line -- Fuse , by Fusion .
Kendall : What s new about it ?
Bianca : Oh , it s color on one end , gloss on the other . You get both in one product .
Kendall : Hmm , twice the beauty , half the price .
Bianca : Did you just come up with that just now right off the top of your head ?
Kendall : I did . Yes . You know , I do this for a living , or I used to . Yeah . I actually came up with something like this when we first started .
Bianca : You are a genius .
Kendall : We could do mascara and eyeliner . Ah , we could do base and blush . We could do a traveling kit , too .
Bianca : Women would nt have to have a separate suitcase just for their toiletries .
Kendall : Yes . Yes .
Bianca : We can go downstairs right now and talk to Marketing about this .
Kendall : No . You know what ? You and Greenlee can run with it .
Bianca : Sign the last page of each document , boss .
Kendall : Body , body , body , body . Body lotion . Body lotion and body scrub .
Bianca : Oh , as I said , genius .
Kendall : I m signing .
Greenlee : You re kind of a weird bird , Madison .
Madison : Well , I just kind of say what I m feeling .
Greenlee : Yeah . That s weird . Most people do nt do that .
Madison : Maybe they should . The world would be a lot less complicated .
Greenlee : Guess it would .
Madison : You know , I use to think I was just jealous of you , your history with Ryan , but I think it s more complicated than that . You know , what you re going through with David , it brought up a lot of bad memories .
Greenlee : About your marriage ?
Madison : I ve come a long way , but I have nt forgotten that feeling of looking at my own husband , who s supposed to love me and cherish me , and hating him for using his own power to keep me down , and I remember thinking , This is it . I m trapped in this . I will never escape .
Greenlee : But you did .
Madison : Only because Henry died .
Greenlee : How did that make you feel ? I bet I know . You felt relief .
David : I just keep showing up late . One of my daughters needs me , and I ca nt seem to get there on time . First , there was Leora , and --
Liza : Oh , well , come on . You ca nt blame yourself for that .
David : Oh , please . Are you kidding ? A world - renowned cardiologist ca nt fix his own daughter s heart ? Who else should I blame ?
Liza : Well , that was senseless . It was a tragedy .
David : Right , like Babe ?
Liza : Yes .
David : No . No . It was my responsibility to protect Babe , and I failed her . I could ve saved her . I just did nt get there fast enough .
Liza : Wait . You were gon na outrun a tornado ?
David : She died because she got involved with J.R. Chandler , and now Marissa is suffering for the same reason .
Liza : Marissa is a grown woman , ok ? You ca nt tell her -- you ca nt tell her who to love .
David : But I knew . I knew what would happen if she married that selfish jerk . I could ve stopped it , and I did nt do it . Now I may have lost the only daughter I have left .
Liza : You know , I tried so hard to reconnect with Colby after she ran off to be with her father , and it would work for a little while . We d get close , but it just never lasted .
David : Well , Colby is young . You have time .
Liza : No , not after what I did . There is nt time in the world that s gon na make a difference . Oh , God , I wish I could just go back , you know , start again .
David : I ll tell you what . You figure out how to make that deal , you let me know .
Liza : It s so weird . It s like you want them to love you so much , you end up doing these stupid , selfish things , and then they never want to look at you again . How do you deal with a child rejecting you ?
David : I wish I had the answer for that . Well , that looks like my cue to go get a drink .
Liza : [ Sighs ] Hi .
Tad : So what s wrong with the adoption papers ?
Liza : How s Damon doing ? I mean , is he taking his meds ?
Tad : What , like you care ?
Liza : Yeah . I do . I care .
Tad : Liza , what s wrong with the adoption papers ? Nothing . Not a thing . You lied about my son s adoption to get me to come down here ?
Liza : Look . Would you have come otherwise ? Please , please just -- just wait . I ve got -- I just have to apologize again for what I did and what I did to Damon , and I manipulated you --
Tad : Liza , you re still manipulating me .
David : She loves you , you idiot .
Caleb : How about a burger ?
Krystal : No . You got to go .
Caleb : What d I do ?
Krystal : Well , let s see . Ever since you ve been in Pine Valley , you have been here for breakfast , lunch , and for dinner practically every day . You , my friend , need a change of scenery .
Caleb : Ok . I ll take a table outside .
Krystal : I can do better than that . How about a home - cooked meal at my place ?
Caleb : Ok . Nothing fancy . I do nt like anything fancy . No gourmet .
Krystal : Oh , I was gon na do flambé .
Caleb : Uh - uh .
Krystal : Just kidding . How does meat , potatoes , and beer sound ?
Caleb : Sounds good .
Krystal : Sound good ? Great . Jimmy , will you take over for me ? Come on . Let s go . We can watch the Phillies while we eat .
Caleb : I m a Yankees fan .
Krystal : Oh , no . God , no . Please .
Caleb : Have nt watched a game in 20 years .
Krystal : Oh , yeah ?
Caleb : Still black - and - white ?
Kendall : Well , is there something else I can do , maybe another product I can consult on ?
Bianca : Uh , no . I think that s about the whole line .
Kendall : Ok . Well , call me , thanks . If you need help with anything , please do nt hesitate . I mean it . Call me anytime .
Bianca : Ok . It s a promise .
Kendall : All right . Well , I guess we ll get going . I love you .
Bianca : Oh . Hey , wait . Maybe we should have a toast or something .
Kendall : A toast ? What is this ? You guys , thank you . You do nt have to do this .
Bianca : Oh , why not ? There you go . Here s yours . All right . On behalf of all of us at Fusion , thank you , and you will always be the other half of this company . Even though you re no longer here for the daily grind , we all aspire to the vision you and Greenlee had when you cooked up that first pot of lip gloss on the stove . You re missed here , Kendall .
Kendall : Let s clink to that , shall we ?
Bianca : Clink .
Zach : Clink .
Kendall : Actually , I should be the one to say thank you . You took over for me when I needed your help , and I m very grateful . I m sorry . I have to go .
Madison : You re right . When Henry died , I did feel relief . I know it sounds awful , but it s true .
Greenlee : You had your life back .
Madison : Oh , I never had a life , but I do now . For the first time , I am building something real , but you , you ve already built so much , and David is trying to take it all away from you -- your freedom , your future . I can understand your wishing him dead , and I can understand your reaching out to Ryan . He s a good guy to have on your side .
Ryan : Hey , sorry I took so long . What d I miss ?
Madison : Girl talk .
Greenlee : I should get going . David is gon na be home waiting for me .
Madison : No . Do nt go back to that man .
Greenlee : I have to go home to my husband .
Madison : You have options . You came here for a reason .
Greenlee : I m fine .
Madison : You do nt have to live like this .
Ryan : It s gon na be ok , Madison .
Madison : And until it is ? For years , I lived with a man that I hated out of fear . I pretended to be happy -- but I was dying inside . I felt so alone and so powerless , but you re not , Greenlee --
Greenlee : No . I m not .
Madison : Not when you have friends who care , want to help you .
Greenlee : Is she for real ?
Ryan : I m afraid so .
Greenlee : Your boyfriend is trying to help his ex get away from her husband . Now you want to help ?
Madison : You would do the same .
Greenlee : Right .
Ryan : Look , Greenlee . We re gon na get you out of this , ok ? We ll get you out of this . We ll get David , and be done .
Madison : He means it .
Ryan : Yes . I do .
Greenlee : I know he does .
Madison : And so do I.
Greenlee : This is so annoying . I really want to hate you .
Madison : Why ?
Tad : He part of your little deal to get me down here ?
Liza : No .
Tad : You sure ? You know , it would nt surprise me . That s what people do when they re desperate -- hang out with him . Do nt call me anymore .
David : [ Sighs ] All right . Look . I m sorry , ok ? I mean , the moron came walking in here . He would nt give you a chance to talk . I just thought it was wrong .
Liza : Thank you for sticking up for me .
David : You re not gon na tear my head off ?
Liza : I do nt have many people in my corner these days . I think I m gon na take what I can get .
David : I m honored .
Liza : David , do you think you have more friends than I do ?
David : Now , that seems like a pointless argument . That d be like one rock asking the other who s smarter , all right ? So you have no friends . I have no friends . Well , at least we have each other , right ?
Liza : That is depressing .
David : No . Depressing would be if I lost you , too .
Caleb : Oh . Rug rats around ?
Krystal : No , actually . They re all at a sleepover . As a matter of fact , I think everybody in the house is somewhere else tonight .
Caleb : Why do you still live with your ex - husband ?
Krystal : Beat around the bush much ?
Caleb : Why ? It s a waste of time .
Krystal : Got that right . Come on in . Put that down . Come on in but just excuse the mess , all right ? This is sort of the main drag around here . It s like Grand Central Station . Everybody is always coming and going or spilling something on my rug . It s total chaos , but I would nt have it any other way .
Caleb : Hmm . I do nt know how you do it .
Krystal : What are you talking about ? You have Bianca and her girls living with you .
Caleb : Yeah , in a house the size of Ohio .
Krystal : Yes , and Marissa is over there all the time .
Caleb : Oh , not that much .
Krystal : And then you volunteered to help Angie .
Caleb : I volunteered ?
Krystal : So you re gon na be seeing a lot of her , and you spend a lot of time with me at the restaurant .
Caleb : The food is good .
Krystal : Deny it all you want , Caleb Cooney , but you re not the loner that you say you are .
Zach : You want a drink ?
Kendall : No , thanks .
Zach : You all right ?
Kendall : Yeah . Yeah . I feel silly for getting all emotional at Fusion . Bianca and Greenlee are doing a great job getting the company back on its feet , and they ll keep me in the loop . Everything will be fine .
Zach : Artie , come on in .
Artie : Slater , looking good , man . Looking good , man .
Zach : All right .
Artie : Wowza .
Zach : You remember my wife Kendall .
Artie : How could I forget ?
Kendall : Hi . Hi . Nice to see you .
Artie : Likewise . So we gon na do a deal , or what ? The broker just showed me your place again . I can not wait to get in there and dig in . I am doing a complete overhaul .
Kendall : Meaning what ?
Artie : That pond you got , I m filling it in .
Kendall : Oh , no . That s where my boys , they were gon na play hockey .
Artie : No . That s where my 3-story garage is gon na go . I collect cars .
Kendall : But the water is so beautiful . You could skate in the winter and swim in the summer .
Artie : Nah . That chlorine , it ruins my hair .
Kendall : It s a pond .
Artie : Well , what do I need that for when I got hot tubs , huh ?
Kendall : Plural ?
Artie : My wife wants her own . We re getting his and her tanning beds , so we need a room for those , and my poodle snookie , we got to have a room for her -- she s our baby -- and then , of course , we got to find a place for the nightclub .
Kendall : You ca nt have my home .
Krystal : Ok . Good . Got the grill going . As soon as it gets hot , I ll throw a couple steaks on .
Caleb : Oh , sounds good . What are you eating ?
Krystal : Ha ha ha ! Good one . Here . Come on . Take a load off .
Caleb : Thanks . Well -- you re easy . I mean , to be with .
Krystal : Oh , thank you . I think you are , too , when you re not being an ornery son of a bitch .
Caleb : Well , I mean , no , but -- no drama , no whining , and I ca nt imagine that if you were to break a nail , that you d freak out .
Krystal : My God --
Caleb : What ?
Krystal : You are comparing me to Erica Kane . Ha ha ha ! No . What , you think she s a princess ?
Caleb : Ha ha ha ! No .
Krystal : Well , Caleb , to be fair , I think you need to really learn your history , because Erica Kane did not start out sitting on a throne . She worked her way up from nothing .
Caleb : Up to what , perfume ?
Krystal : Well , running a restaurant is nt exactly solving the world s problems , either .
Caleb : Hey , people are hungry , you feed them . That s good , honest work .
Krystal : I have done some things that were nt exactly honest .
Caleb : Yeah , but from where I sit , looks like you re doing pretty well .
Krystal : Yeah . I got my business going really well . I got great friends . Got my family , but , Caleb , you re really lucky that you ve never had to suffer the loss of a child .
Caleb : Better check on the grill , hmm ?
Artie : I made a great offer .
Kendall : I do nt care if you re offering me the moon . You ca nt have our home .
Artie : Little help here ?
Zach : Ca nt have it . You re gon na ruin the place , Artie .
Artie : Ruin it ? I m gon na make it into a palace .
Kendall : I do nt think Pine Valley is ready for a palace , ok ? Try Vegas .
Artie : You re making a big mistake .
Zach : Ha ha ha !
Kendall : He s -- are you mad ? I mean --
Zach : No , not at all .
Kendall : I just scared away your buyer .
Zach : It s ok . Got another buyer already .
Kendall : Oh . Well , do they want to turn the boys room into a cigar lounge ?
Zach : No , but that s a good idea . No . I m kidding . This guy wants to leave it just the way it is .
Kendall : Well , that s good , I guess .
Zach : He s a nice guy . You d like him .
Kendall : Oh , you know him ?
Zach : Yeah , yeah . Got a nice family , good - looking guy -- in shape , rugged .
Kendall : Great .
Zach : You want to see a picture ?
Kendall : Uh , sure .
Zach : That s his family right there . No one is taking the home .
Greenlee : I need to get going , and I did nt mean what I said .
Madison : Well , stay for dinner . I have a huge chicken in the oven .
Ryan : She s not kidding . It s large , real large .
Madison : The chicken . Hopefully , it has nt caught on fire . Excuse me .
Greenlee : I tried to leave . She would nt take no for an answer .
Ryan : Hmm . She does nt want you going back to David .
Greenlee : I m fine . She does nt have to worry about me .
Ryan : She knows how strong you are . She just wants to make sure you re safe .
Greenlee : I get that , but then I do nt .
Ryan : Meaning ?
Greenlee : Come on , Ryan . Your girlfriend cooking for me , worrying about me , your ex ? The three of us are about to sit down and have dinner in the apartment that used to be my home . This is officially weird .
Ryan : It does nt have to be , Greenlee . I mean , you and I , we know where we stand .
Greenlee : Well , you heard what I said before .
Ryan : Yeah . I heard you . You want to hate Madison for being with me . That s ok because I hate you being with David , too .
Liza : Do you want me to talk to Marissa for you ?
David : You would do that for me ?
Liza : Well , I ca nt get through to my own daughter . Maybe I can get through to yours . Besides , a girl needs her daddy , and there s nothing more pathetic than a bad guy feeling sorry for himself .
David : Did you just call me a bad guy ?

Ridge : You do nt want to get into this , Nick . Not now .
Nick : I do .
Ridge : I did nt come here to argue with you .
Nick : That s why you came by my boat today , is nt it ?
Ridge : I said everything I had to say .
Nick : And Brooke heard every word of it . You know how upset she was ? She stormed off that boat , she slipped on the deck , and now she s back in that hospital bed , and we re lucky her and the boy are okay .
Ridge : Thank god they are .
Nick : Well , no thanks to you and me .
Ridge : It was an accident , though , was nt it , Nick ?
Nick : It coulda been a tragedy . A tragedy that I could easily prevent . Now what about you ?
Ridge : Of course , what are you talking about ?
Nick : Well then it stops . It stops right here , Forrester . I m not gon na argue with you anymore . Now , the fact is Brooke and I are having a baby together , and you either accept that or you do nt .
Ridge : And what if I do nt , Nick ?
Nick : Then you just keep it to yourself .
Ridge : I told you to stay away from my kids because I m very concerned about protecting them .
Nick : I understand that now . Just like I wanna protect mine .
Stephanie : Are you all right ?
Brooke : Yeah , fine .
Stephanie : What happened ?
Brooke : I slipped on Nick s boat . I was nt really paying attention . I was trying to get away , actually .
Stephanie : From what ?
Brooke : Things are nt getting any better , Stephanie . I left town so that Nick and Ridge could try to work things out , but they re not . It s just not getting better .
Stephanie : I know . And you re right , it is nt getting any better .
Stephanie : What about the kids ?
Brooke : They miss me .
Stephanie : And I know you miss them , but moving back into the house is not the solution .
Brooke : I was nt suggesting that .
Stephanie : I know you too well . I know what you re thinking .
Brooke : You should ve seen how they reacted when they saw the ultrasound . Ridge was really hurt .
Stephanie : He saw the baby ? Before Nick ?
Brooke : No , Nick was here for the exam . But then the technician came in , and he turned on the machine while the kids and Ridge were here .
Stephanie : Why did he do that ?
Brooke : He thought that they were my family .
Jackie : Oh , doctor , what a shame . I know you died thinking that those paternity tests needed to be run again . I m sorry . I could nt bring myself to tell them .
Jackie : You were on your way to tell Brooke when you died . She still does nt know . She ended her marriage . She left Ridge and the children because of this . It was the hardest choice she s ever had to make . How could I force her to make it again ? How can I put this family back through all that turmoil for what may be nothing ? Nicky and Brooke -- they re connecting . I saw it today at the hospital . Oh , you should have seen how they reacted when they saw the baby on the ultrasound . It was -- they were becoming a family . And it was the kind of family Brooke has always wanted . And Nicky can give that to her . How can I take that away ?
Ridge : You re protecting your child ?
Nick : Yeah .
Ridge : From me ?
Nick : From us . From this .
Ridge : Well , I have a very easy solution to that , Nick .
Nick : Do nt walk away from this Forrester .
Ridge : Is nt that what you want , Nick ? To stop fighting . Hmm ?
Nick : I wanna work this out .
Ridge : Not tonight . My family s waiting for me .
Nick : I m your family . I m your brother , and I m asking you , I m begging you -- we got ta try to get along .
Ridge : Well , smoothing things over with you , Nick , is not exactly on my priority list .
Nick : Understandable . What about Brooke ? Do you really want our children to grow up around this kind of hostility ? I meant what I said . I m not gon na argue with you anymore .
Ridge : I do nt wanna argue with you anymore . So why do nt we just stay out of each other s way ?
Nick : Forrester , I ll never know the pain you felt , and I know that ending your marriage was the hardest thing you and Brooke have ever done . Do nt make it harder .
Ridge : Let me tell you something , Nick . You and Brooke have a child . That s an incredible bond . But that will never erase how Brooke feels about me and my family . Get a clue here . Brooke s heart will always be with me , Nick . Now , can you deal with that , hmm ?
Brooke : I m not complaining . My baby s fine , so I m relieved .
Stephanie : I m sure Nick was , as well .
Brooke : It was amazing . Seeing our child . He was beautiful . I ca nt tell you the effect that it had on me . For the first time , all of my anxiety and my tension , it just fell away . And I was nt really worried about my situation . Meeting my child for the very first time .
Stephanie : Sounds wonderful .
Brooke : It was . I m just glad Nick was there and able to share it with me . I think he deserves to enjoy this .
Stephanie : So do you .
Brooke : I m trying . I just did nt expect to be doing this alone .
Stephanie : You re not alone .
Brooke : I know . Yeah , I know I have a lot of support .
Stephanie : Put me at the top of the list , okay ?
Brooke : Oh , you re there . Believe me .
Stephanie : You just have to take a moment and really , really recognize what a sacrifice you ve made for ridge and his family . I do nt think I could have done it . You re a strong woman . You are . You re gon na come through this , and so will ridge and his children .
Nick : Hey . Feelin better ?
Brooke : Better , yeah .
Nick : Good . Had a few visitors , right ?
Brooke : Stephanie was just here .
Nick : Yeah , I saw her . And I saw Forrester , too .
Brooke : Oh , no .

Nick : Yeah , I talked to him .
Brooke : And what happened ?
Nick : Shh . No , I want you to -- I want you to trust me on this , okay ? Everything s fine , all right ?
Brooke : Okay , yeah .
Nick : Okay . So , any news from the doctors ?
Brooke : No .
Nick : They want you to spend the night ?
Brooke : Hope not .
Nick : Well , I can always call mom on her cell . She can bring some things over for you .
Brooke : She left ?
Nick : Yeah , one of the nurses mentioned Dr. Paxson s funeral , so --
Brooke : Oh , that was today .
Nick : She thought somebody from the family should be there .
Brooke : That was very nice of her .
Nick : It was hard , was nt it ? To see Ridge and the kids . I know it was hard on him .
Brooke : It s not your fault . Leaving was my decision .
Nick : I respect your loyalty and your love for him and those kids . And I know you feel like you re missing a lot all the time . Like everything you wanted was , just , right on the horizon for you , and this big squall comes along , and you just ca nt set anchor . But it s a storm , Brooke . It s just a storm . And it s gon na pass . And if you had to pick anybody to go through a storm with , it d be me . All I can ask you is that you give us a chance to love our son together . Can you do that ?
Stephanie : Honey , why do nt you just go home ?
Ridge : I was going to .
Stephanie : Oh , and then you ran into Nick .
Ridge : Did she say anything about him ?
Stephanie : Just that he was being very supportive .
Ridge : Yeah , he wants to call a truce . He thinks all this arguing is not good for his son .
Stephanie : Well , he has a point . I know it is nt good for mine .
Ridge : Did Brooke say anything else ?
Stephanie : Did she mention you ?
Ridge : No , the baby . Is there any more news ?
Stephanie : No .
Ridge : Maybe I should just wait till the doctor comes back .
Stephanie : Ridge , Nick is in there with her .
Ridge : You have no idea what this is doing to me . To know that he is in there . Comforting her , telling her everything s all right with their baby . I saw the baby on the ultrasound , just for a moment .
Stephanie : How do you feel about that ?
Ridge : I felt ecstatic . Standing there with Brooke , my kids are in the room . It was pretty much exactly like I had envisioned it . So strange -- the first glimpse of our child . Only it s not our child .
Jackie : Oh , I wish you d never told me anything . I wanted answers . What did I get ? I got this secret . This terrible , terrible secret . If I keep it , well , we could all put this ordeal behind us . We could get on with our lives . We could all start healing . I mean , you said yourself that there was a very , very strong possibility that even if the tests were run again , they could be the same . Well , they would be . Nicky . Nicky is the father of Brooke s baby . I know it . You took this secret to your grave . Well , god help me , so will I. So will

Ned : Justus , has Dillon shown up ?
Justus : I had them page him , but it could be a while . They re so busy . Has anyone spoken to Lila ?
Alan : I m going to hold off till I have something definite to tell her .
Ned : Reginald s trying to keep her away from the news . It is nt easy .
Tracy : I missed you , daddy . I suppose you re surprised to hear me say that , but -- you know , the whole time that I was away , I kept planning how I was going to come home and take over E.L.Q. I was going to steal it right out from under your nose so you d be proud of me . Do you remember when I was a little girl and any time I would beat you at anything -- tennis , bridge , even ticktacktoe -- you d say good for you , Tracy . You beat me at my own game , and I m proud of you . Hi , daddy .
Edward : Justus .
Skye : Oh . Thanks for helping me skip the E.R.
Luke : Oh , sure . If Bobbie says you re ok , you re ok .
Skye : Yeah . Bobbie must be frantic about Carly .
Luke : Well , Carly will show up sooner or later .
Skye : You do nt seem overly concerned .
Luke : Nah , Carly s a Spencer . She s impossible to kill -- which is great , except when I want to kill her myself .
Skye : Well , that is a dilemma , no question .
Luke : Do you mind ?
Skye : What , you carry that with you ?
Luke : I lifted it out of the Versailles room . You re not going to give me any 12-step cha - cha , are you ?
Skye : Oh . I would nt dream of it .
Luke : Ok . To you . You saved my life .
Skye : You saved mine , too .
Luke : To treasures lost , found , and lost again .

Ric : Chief , chief , there s a man trapped on the 16th floor .
Chief : We ve abandoned searching the upper floors .
Courtney : No , no , no -- you have -- my husband is up there . They handcuffed him to a pipe !
Chief : What ? I m sorry , maam , but the upper floors have been fully engulfed .
Courtney : Well , if you wo nt get him , I m going to go find him .

Monica : No , Emily -- Emily , you ca nt go anywhere .
Emily : No --
Monica : Sweetheart , you just had a transfusion .
Emily : I can , I can . I never should have left him .
Monica : No , Emily -- Emily , please listen to me . You ve got to rest . You have lost a lot of blood .
Emily : You call the firefighters . Call the firefighters and make sure that they re looking for him .

Nikolas : What ?
Jason : There s a gas leak . We got to get out of here .
Carly : Sonny , the control panel -- they re locked off .

Carly : No , Sonny , I am not leaving you !
Sonny : I can get the elevator moving , but I ca nt guarantee the cable s not going to snap if there s another explosion . So go ! Take her out of here !
Lorenzo : It s too late . We re not going to make it back through the hall . It s the only way down .
Lorenzo : Come on .
Sonny : Are you sure ? Here we go .
Jax : I did nt mean to startle you . I just needed to take a shower .
Skye : What , and my house is the only place that you could take one ?
Luke : The shelters are all full ?
Jax : Why is this your concern ?
Skye : What , his concern ? What about my concern ? No , my concern is why is it you re concerned whether or not it s his concern ?
Luke and Jax : What ?
Skye : Look , you just ca nt come into my house and take a shower !

Skye : Understand what ? I do nt go into your house and take a shower , do I ?
Jax : I do nt have a house anymore .
Luke : Hmm . See , he s got you there , Blaze .
Skye : Do nt call me Blaze .
Jax : Why does he call you Blaze ?
Skye : He does nt call me Blaze .
Luke : You ever seen this woman wield a fire extinguisher ?
Skye : Look , you know what ? We all got out of the fire , we re safe , I m incredibly grateful , but all I want out of life right now is a long hot bubble bath .
Luke : Care for company ?
Georgie : Do nt worry about Maxie and me . All we want is for you to get better . Do nt think about the fire and -- think about all of us sitting around the living room watching movies and ice skating and camping . You know , we have nt gone camping in a long time . Maybe we could go next summer . The doctors say you need to get some rest , so I m going to be back as soon as I can . I love you , daddy .
Dillon : You were great . You did so great .
Georgie : Thank you .
Nurse : Are you Dillon Quartermaine ?
Dillon : Yes .
Nurse : You need to meet your family in Cardiac I.C.U.
Dillon : What happened ?
Nurse : Your grandfather had a heart attack .
Edward : Thank you for coming .
Tracy : What are they talking about ?
Ned : You may not want to know .
Tracy : You re right . Justus is nt family .
Ned : Mother , maybe you should track down Dillon and get your mind off all this .
Tracy : Your brother should be here . He s a Quartermaine .
Alan : How s Emily ?
Monica : Well , the transfusion helped , and she s resting . Is there any word on Jason ?
Alan : No .
Monica : And what about Edward s surgery ?
Alan : We re waiting for the angiogram results . If he goes into surgery , will you observe ?
Monica : I ve already cleared it with Dr. Kramer .
Alan : Do nt let him die , Monica .
Tracy : That s daddy s will . He s leaving everything to Justus .
Courtney : Let go of me !
Ric : Courtney , calm down .
Mike : Let go of my daughter ! Let go !
Courtney : Get off of me !
Mike : Let go ! Let go !
Courtney : Daddy , Jason s still in there ! I have to get him !
Mike : Michael ! Michael . Michael .
Sonny : Hey .
Carly : Oh . Oh .
Courtney : Oh , my God .
Carly : You ok ?
Courtney : Did you see Jason ?
Carly : Wait -- he s -- he s not here ?
Courtney : Capelli handcuffed him to a pipe --
Carly : What ?
Sonny : It s on your head , Ric . You let Capelli take him !
Ric : I was just going to say I was glad you re alive .
Courtney : I need to go get --
Carly : Wait --
Mike : No , no , no ! Honey , come here !
Sonny : Do nt put yourself in danger , Courtney .
Carly : Jason will be ok . I swear he will .
Courtney : Carly , he is trapped in there .
Carly : Sonny -- Sonny is right . The best thing you can do for Jason right now is to stay safe .
Mike : That s right . Come on . Come on , come on . Come on .
Carly : Hey . That was nice -- nice work with the elevator .
Sonny : You got me there .
Carly : I m glad you re -- you re alive .
Sonny : What matters is we made it .
Carly : Did you say something ? I mean , when -- when the floor gave way , I woke up in your arms . You were holding me , and I thought -- I thought you said something .
Sonny : Yeah . I said --
Sam : Sonny ? Thank God you re alive .
Tracy : Are you sure he needs surgery ?
Alan : Yes .
Tracy : You said he was a bad candidate .
Alan : He is .
Tracy : Then why are you doing it ?
Monica : If he does nt have the surgery , he ll die , Tracy . It s as simple as that . So if you have something to say to him , I suggest you say it now . If you start badgering him on what he was signing in there , I will wheel you into O.R. and cut out your heart myself .
Justus : I ve said all I need to say .
Tracy : I ll bet you have .
Alan : I know you , father . You re too stubborn to die . You do nt want us all just hanging around trying to think of nice things to say about you . You d rather be here and just torment us like you always have done , and that s fine with me . I love you . Do nt you dare die on me .
Ned : You d do anything for this family , and I ve always admired that . I never told you that before .
Tracy : I know you , daddy . You wo nt quit .
Monica : Ok , we d better go .
Tracy : Well , that surgeon better be competent .
Ned : I m sure he s the best on the staff .
Tracy : No , he s not the best on the staff . Monica is the best on the staff , but she ca nt operate on him because he s family ! We should have flown in a specialist !
Ned : You know what ? I m going to go and call home and check on grandmother . You two try not to kill each other .
Tracy : You -- what did you make my father sign ?
Justus : Edward signed those documents of his own free will .
Tracy : He made you the Quartermaine heir , did nt he ?
Justus : Why would I want that ? You re broke .
Tracy : Then what did he sign ?
Justus : That s confidential .
Tracy : Wrong answer . Show me that document now .
Skye : Give me one good reason why I should nt throw the both of you out .
Jax : I m wearing a towel .
Skye : Because you came into my house uninvited and took a shower .
Luke : Bad manners , Jax . I always heard you were the epitome of good manners .
Skye : You ca nt stay .
Luke : You tell him , Blaze .
Skye : Do nt call me that .
Jax : Are you sure ?
Luke : You heard the lady .
Skye : Will you stay out of this ?
Jax : Ha . See ? You heard the lady .
Skye : Will you both get out , please ?
Luke : You ca nt mean that .
Jax : Skye , I m -- I m in a towel . You got to reconsider .
Skye : Look -- ok . I m the first to admit that I do enjoy a little male attention now and again , but not after I ve spent hours in a burning building , ok ? I ve had enough excitement for a while , and what I do nt need at the moment is my ex - husband standing there in a towel or my business partner calling me Blaze ! What I want is my house back with some peace and quiet !
Luke : I think you better go .
Jax : No , I think she wants you to leave .
Skye : Hello .
Luke : I think she s talking to you .
Skye : Ned , what s the matter ? Oh , my God . Yeah , I m on my way .
Paramedic : There . Let me get you a new bandage .
Carly : How d you find me ?
Lorenzo : I do nt know . They said you were dead , but I knew they were wrong . I ran downstairs to the 18th floor , and the walls were on fire , and I got turned around . I thought I was lost , but I just kept running . I knew I had to find you . You need to go to the hospital ?
Carly : I need to wait and see what we know about Jason .
Carly : Hey .
Courtney : Jason promised me that he would get out safe .
Carly : He will .
Sam : Are they waiting for someone ?
Sonny : Yeah . Jason .
Sam : What happened ?
Sonny : He got chained to a pipe because I lost my temper .
Sam : I do nt understand .
Sonny : It does nt matter . I know Jason . He ll get out .
Sam : How d you hurt your leg ?
Sonny : I fell . How d you get out ? What --
Sam : Jax -- he found me .
Sonny : I went to see Jax . I did nt see you .
Sam : I know . I was -- I was in the hallway , and then -- yeah , it was -- actually , it was kind of a miracle that he got me in time .
Sonny : We could all use a few miracles .
Emily : Hey , have you seen Nikolas ?
Carly : No , no , but I just came out of the building . Courtney , have you seen Nikolas ?
Courtney : I have nt seen Nikolas , either . As far as I know , the last ones out of the building were Sonny and Carly .
Emily : Jason s in there , too ?
Carly : Yeah , he s -- he s going to get out . So is Nikolas . It s ok . It s ok . It s ok .
Emily : Is there any word on Nikolas or Jason ?
Ric : I m sorry . The fire captain s abandoned the search . He said the building s too unstable to send in anyone right now . I m sorry . Sorry to barge in .
Justus : The document is attorney / client work product . You ca nt see it .
Tracy : Fine . Tell me what it says .
Justus : The same standard applies . Do you grasp the concept of confidential ?
Tracy : I grasp the concept of manipulation .
Dillon : Mom ?
Tracy : Oh , sweetheart . Oh , my God , you re here . I have been trying to protect your inheritance from this interloper .
Ned : Warms the heart , does nt it ?
Skye : How is he ?
Ned : He s still in surgery .
Alan : We have nt heard anything yet .
Tracy : What is she doing here ?
Ned : Mother , will you please just give it a rest ?
Tracy : She is nt family , either !
Dillon : Look , can we please just stop fighting for two seconds .
Justus : I agree .
Tracy : Give me that . I , Edward Quartermaine , am fully and solely responsible for negligence in the Port Charles Hotel fire . My family had no knowledge of the fire safety codes and are free from blame . It is all my fault .
Luke : Barbara ? Is it Carly ?
Bobbie : No , no . No , Carly s ok . Carly got out , but Scott Baldwin is dead .
Luke : Baldwin ?
Bobbie : They identified his body .
Luke : Baldwin s dead ? That ca nt be right .
Bobbie : Scotty s the first man I ever really loved . I guess in a way I never really stopped loving him , not completely . I guess I never really thought he d be gone .
Emily : Sonny , they re calling off the search .
Sonny : Yeah . I heard .
Emily : No , Nikolas and Jason are still in there .
Sam : Listen , there s --
Emily : Make them keep looking , Sonny . You have to help me . You can get things done . Make them send firefighters in there to find Nikolas and Jason .
Carly : There are two men still inside that building . You ca nt -- you ca nt just give up on them . What is wrong with you ?
Courtney : He s still in there . We have to get him , Carly . Jason .
Jason : Nikolas !
Emily : He s alive . You ll see .
Edward : I ve died and gone to hell .
Carly : You saved my life . Thank you .
Lorenzo : Carly , there is so much I want to give you .
Michael : Why did nt mommy come home with you ?

You are a helpful, respectful and honest assistant. Your task is to summarize the following dialogue. Your answer should be based on the provided dialogue only.
### Dialogue:
Bridget : There s nowhere to go from here .
Nick : There is , we ll move forward together .
Bridget : Oh Nick , we ve already tried that . We keep putting these phantoms in front of us -- a child that could nt be born -- a child that we could nt have -- we keep reaching for them , when we re really reaching for a life with each other --
Nick : We can have children of our own .
Bridget : Marriage is supposed to make us a family .
Nick : And it has -- it will .
Bridget : No , nick . We keep wanting a family to make us a marriage . When we both know the truth is , we have never had the right marriage to make us a family .
Stephanie : Ridge -- put that away . She does nt want you .
Ridge : If you would let her answer maybe I d find out !
Stephanie : Not with Bridget and Nick marriage unraveling -- not if she can get him fair and square .
Brooke : Nothing is unraveling except your sick mind !
Stephanie : Their marriage is not going to hold together without that baby . Without some child .
Ridge : You can prove her wrong , by saying yes to me right now . And to hell with Nick . Logan , I was a fool to walk away from the best life has to offer . And all I can think of night and day is getting it back . Is that what you want as well ? Tell me . Tell me that you will marry me .
Brooke : I have a few conditions .
Nick : Let s -- let s step back here . Because we re disagreeing about a very specific question . Let s not make this about what we are to each other .
Bridget : But it is .
Nick : Bridget , I can not raise a child that is going to be taken from me . And you know that that is inevitable .
Bridget : We made a promise .
Nick : But we did nt promise this .
Bridget : I knew what I was promising . I never thought that Dominick was mine . But for you , I can see obviously that does nt really matter . I know that you love me . But I also know it s not the real reason you married me or the reason you came back .
Nick : Are you unhappy ? Do I make you unhappy ?
Bridget : No . Like you said , it s just reality .
Nick : Which part ?
Bridget : This whole not looking at what s right in front of us . We keep our eyes on the future and it s a future we re never getting closer to . Other people see it , Nick . Dante told me the real reason that I came over tonight was not to discuss Dominick but to --
Nick : What ? To try to save my marriage . He was right . I do nt think I can .
Nick : So what is this been about for the last six months ? All the talking and listening and the apologies and the promises .
Bridget : This is different nick . This is nt about you being in love with my mother . There it is . That s what this really does come down to , does nt it ? Look at me now -- I m not losing control -- I think I m actually taking it back .
Nick : You have taken it back -- you ve done this . And we have a good marriage , Bridget . And you certainly ca nt say that for anyone else in your family .
Bridget : Well I think it s a little easier for us .
Nick : How is it easier ?
Bridget : Because I think we re both professionals at having our heart broken . And from one professional to another , Nick -- your heart is nt in this .
Nick : How can you say that ?
Bridget : Because your heart is somewhere else .
Brooke : Number one , I am not leaving this house .
Ridge : Okay . Number two ?
Brooke : Number two , I want the extended family to feel comfortable here . And welcome at all times
Ridge : Present company excluded ?
Brooke : I m getting to that . Brothers , sisters , parents , ex - spouses and their children , my children --
Ridge : Check .
Brooke : And their spouses . And that includes Nick .
Ridge : With you married to me , I have no issue with Nick .
Brooke : That is not true . You two never got along .
Ridge : Okay -- I think he d be more comfortable if we kept it that way .
Brooke : No , Ridge . Nick is your brother . You treat him like one .
Ridge : Okay . What else --
Brooke : Number three . Stephanie is your mother . So you ll have to give her all the love and the attention and the respect that she is due . Which will really be very little , because you have to give me all the love and the respect and attention that you owe me first . And if she disagrees with me , you stand by my side . And she has no say so in our marriage , in how we raise our children , and no influence over you what so ever .
Ridge : How am I doing so far today ?
Brooke : Really good otherwise we would nt have gotten this far .
Ridge : All conditions accepted .
Brooke : Okay . Well then , I am proud to be Mrs. Ridge Forrester . That is so beautiful . That is so beautiful .
Ridge : Just like you my dear . Just like you .
Ridge : Let s set a date . How about the day after today ?
Brooke : What -- you ca nt be serious ?
Ridge : I m very serious . We ve done the big grandiose horses - and - acrobats wedding , and we should never left that be undone . Logan , I want to correct that mistake and I want to be married to you , and I want to do it before we have a chance for anything to go wrong .
Brooke : Okay , well then yes -- tomorrow , the day after today .
Ridge : Well I suppose congratulations is too much to expect , huh ?
Stephanie : Oh , am I permitted to speak ? You re a bigger idiot than Eric was . At least he never expected a happily - ever - after . He was going to be happy and satisfied with just a few quickies --
Ridge : All right -- that s it . You re out of here !
Stephanie : You bet I am ! This is me leaving the asylum because there s nothing here but insane people .
Ridge : Out !
Brooke : She s going to cause trouble .
Ridge : You think between today and tomorrow she is ?
Brooke : She s going straight to Nick and Bridget .
Ridge : Are they going to be happy for us ?
Brooke : Bridget will .
Ridge : And Nick ?
Brooke : Nick -- Nick ? No , I m going to have to have the same talk with him that I had with you . There s no reason for you two to be antagonistic to each other .
Ridge : Well , maybe one ? Logan , the site on that woman s face when she realized her worst nightmare -- she got everything she deserved . But if there s anything that you just said , that you want to take back , tell me now . You and I have always avoided a lot of questions by just jumping into bed with each other . Not that I m complaining -- I just want to know .
Brooke : Just let me show you .
Nick : Bridget , I have never been unfaithful to you . Brooke and I will never be together .
Bridget : Maybe you should be .
Nick : I love you . I love us . You are home to me . Do nt throw that away .
Bridget : No man will ever , ever be what you are to me . I know how hard it is for you to have me know that you love my mother . I know it s like some secret shame , you feel you need to hide . And I do nt want that . You do nt want that . So just let it go . Let me go . We both know that this has got to happen .
Nick : Why do I feel that the best thing that ever happened to me is turning its back and walking away ?
Bridget : Because it s the hardest thing I ve ever asked you to do . I do nt know that we need to talk about this anymore . I think maybe you should go spend the night on the Marlin .
Nick : I do nt want to leave you .
Bridget : It s okay , I ll be fine . I m not alone , I ve got Dominick . Maybe you need some time to decide if what I m saying is really so wrong .
Nick : Maybe things will look different to you in the morning too . Bridget , it s not true that we were only together because of the child .
Bridget : Please remember , I m always going to love you . Are you hungry ? MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
Brooke : I think of him as my heart . You ca nt see it , you ca nt hear it , but it s there . It s the center of your universe . It s everything . There is nt anything that I said tonight or any other time that I would take back . I do nt regret loving you for one minute , no matter how young and crazy we were or how awful and angry we got . Looking at you , is like , looking back on my life all the good , all the bad , and loving it all .
Bridget : Hey Stephanie , I d ask you in but Dominick just fell back asleep and I swill be soon too .
Stephanie : I did nt see Nick s car outside . Oh , it s already happened ?
Bridget : No , nothing s happened , he s just not here .
Stephanie : I m sorry .
Bridget : Condolences are nt necessary .
Stephanie : I was thinking of Dominick .
Bridget : Oh well , who his father is , does nt change the way I feel about him at all .
Stephanie : I knew you would feel that way . And I knew that Nick would not .
Bridget : Then I do nt know why you needed to come all the way down here , you can stay home and still know everything about our lives .
Stephanie : Your mother and Ridge are getting married tomorrow .
Bridget : Well , I m happy for them , if that s what they want .
Stephanie : You know damn well it s not what your mother wants .
Bridget : I know damn well that makes you want to blow something up , and the first thing you usually think of is me .
Stephanie : You think this whole thing this evening is some sort of coincidence ? Look -- your mother knows that without a child , this marriage of yours is going to fall apart .
Bridget : Thank you , I ll keep that in mind .
Stephanie : I did nt say that to hurt you . I can see by your face , that s already been accomplished . Listen honey -- you re two nice people that are wrong for each other , no one has to apologize for that . The question is , do you love him enough to let him go and be happy ? You do nt have a lot of time to decide . Your mother knows that this marriage of yours with Nick is falling apart and she s using Ridge , to close the door to him , just the way she did with your father . So you have to ask yourself , is this what you want ?
Ridge : We should be celebrating , you know .
Brooke : Where would you like to go ?
Ridge : Nowhere .
Brooke : What would you like to do ?
Ridge : Get down on my knees and thank you for taking me back . I got scared , Logan .
Brooke : Of what ?
Ridge : The possibility that I had screwed it all up . That I d realized what a fool I was , that I d given up everything to have a second chance with you . But you could nt love me anymore because that part of your life that I occupied was already filled .
Brooke : Nobody else is a father to my son . Nobody else could rip my clothes off and sew them back together . Nobody else knows the worst about me and can only remembered the best . Of course , I love you . I loved you for so long , I ca nt even remember how not to .
Bridget : You going to have to have somebody else do your dirty work for you , Stephanie .
Stephanie : There s no one else who can .
Bridget : Do you have any idea how outrageous you are ?
Stephanie : I m willing to bet that not even you want to see your mother and Nick go through this silly routine of sacrificing and denial and not being available to one another . It makes everyone who loves them miserable .
Bridget : My mother is her own woman . What can I do about it ?
Stephanie : What are you willing to do ? Your mother looks upon Nick as her gift to you . Why are nt you giving back ?

Rex : Okay , and everything we said to each other last night before we passed out was real ?
Gigi : I hope so . You told me you loved me .
Rex : Well , I do , and you -- you told me that I m Shane s father .
Shane : Morning , Dad .
Brody : Morning , son . Did you sleep okay ?
Shane : Yeah , I did .
Brody : Hey , what can I get you for breakfast ?
Shane : Cereal s okay .
Brody : Hey , I may not be much of a cook , but I think I can manage to whip up some bacon and eggs .
Shane : You do nt have to do anything special . I kind of wanted to do something special for you .
Todd : Jess ? Jessica ? Do you know where Jessica is ?
Tina : That s it ?
Todd : Jess ? Hey , Jess ?
Tina : What , that s all you have to say to me ?
Tess : [ As Jessica ] John ?
John : Hey , what s going on ?
Tess : I need to talk to you .
John : Talk .
Tess : Well , it s about the woman that you were looking for at Todd s house last night .
Todd : Jess ?
Todd : Where the hell is she ?
Tina : Out . That s all you have to say ?
Todd : Hmm ?
Tina : I do nt believe this . You are my full brother , Todd , and we have nt seen each other for years .
Todd : I do nt know what your point is .
Tina : My point is that s all you have to say to me ?
Todd : What would you have me say to you ?
Tina : Oh , I do nt know . How about , Hi , Tina , nice to see you . How are you ?
Todd : Hi , Tina , nice to see you . How are you ? Where s Jessica ?
Tina : I do nt know . I m not her babysitter . I m just the aunt she hates .
Todd : Jessica hates you ?
Tina : Yeah , she seems to . Although , she never used to . Look , I know she s going through a lot . She just lost her husband , I mean , but was she a brat before this , because she is not the Jessica I remember .
John : You know something about the woman who s staying with Manning ?
Tess : [ As Jessica ] Just so we re clear , you re not talking about the housekeeper , right ?
John : I am not talking about the housekeeper . Who is she , Jessica ?
Tess : Oh , I -- I do nt know . I guess the best way to describe her is , uh , a figment of your imagination .
John : Really ?
Tess : Yeah , she does nt exist , John . I mean , Todd is nt hiding anybody at his house , and you re kind of wasting your time looking for her .
John : Hmm , I wonder why it s so important for you to convince me of that .
Brody : You did this for me ?
Shane : One of the first things that you said when you got back was how sorry you were for not being here while I was growing up , that you missed out on everything , so I put together this scrapbook for you .
Brody : I ca nt even begin to tell you how much this means to me , Shane .
Shane : Mom s always taking pictures , so pretty much anything important that happened to me is in here . That s me and Mom at the Bon - Jour Cafe where Mom used to work . She hates that picture of herself . She thinks she looks fat .
Brody : I think your mom looks beautiful here . She always looks beautiful .
Gigi : What are we going to do now that everything s out in the open ?
Rex : Well , nothing s out in the open . It s just between you and me .
Gigi : And there are a few complications . You re still married to Adriana for one thing .
Rex : Things are complicated , but I do nt regret a single thing that happened between you and me . I should have told you I loved you a long time ago .
Gigi : I gave you the chance . I told you I loved you .
Rex : Well , you could nt have picked a better moment than the middle of my wedding ?
Rex : I need to figure out how to tell Adriana .
Gigi : Right .
Rex : And we have to figure out how to tell Shane I m his father .
Lindsay : Wow , when they told me that I had a visitor , it never occurred to me that it would be you .
Bo : I was pretty surprised myself .
Lindsay : I did nt know if I would ever see you again . You were so mad .
Bo : Lindsay , we were about to get married , and all of a sudden I find out that you faked insanity to get out of a murder charge .
Lindsay : Okay , you know what , Bo ? If you came here just to go through all that again --
Bo : No , no , no no , that s not why I m here . You re paying for what you did .
Lindsay : Yes , I am .
Bo : I was surprised when I found out you pled guilty .
Lindsay : I just want this all to be over with .
Bo : Yeah , I guess so .
Lindsay : So why did you come see me ?
Bo : Believe it or not , I came here to thank you .
Brody : There you are in a coat and tie .
Shane : You can tell by the way I m smiling that I hate getting dressed up .
Brody : It s still a good one .
Shane : Everyone says that we do nt look alike , but I think in that picture , I sort of look like you .
Brody : No , you re your mama all over again .
Shane : A lot of kids at school do nt look like their parents , either .
Brody : Well , I never looked anything like my dad .
Shane : It does nt make any difference whether we look alike or not . Once we get back that test that we took , it ll be official that you re my dad .
Gigi : I m not so sure we should rush into telling Shane .
Rex : Rush ? I just spent the last 10 years of my life not knowing that I was a father . You thought Shane was better off thinking his dad was dead than having me in his life .
Gigi : That s not fair . I was afraid that if I hunted you down and told you , you d call me a liar or you would nt want any part of Shane and me .
Rex : I m -- I m sorry . I know I left you in a tough situation , but you did a great job at raising Shane . He s amazing .
Gigi : Yeah , he is .
Rex : But I lost a lot of years with Shane that I ca nt get back , so can you blame me for not wanting to lose one more day ?
Gigi : No .
Rex : Look , I m going to be the greatest father , I swear . I know I did nt have any kind of role model growing up , but that kind of makes you think about what a good dad should be . I want the kind of relationship with Shane that Bo has with Matthew . There s still a few days before he goes back to school . Maybe I can take him fishing or --
Gigi : I miss him so much . This is the longest I ve ever been away from him .
Rex : Have nt you called him ?
Gigi : I left a message last night , but I was -- I was waiting to make sure that he was up .
Rex : Call him . Call our son .
Brody : The only reason we took that DNA test is because my name is nt on your birth certificate .
Shane : I know . You were worried because mom went away and if anything ever happened to her --
Brody : No , nothing is going to happen to your mom .
Shane : Maybe that s her now .
Shane : Hello ?
Gigi : Honey , it s Mom .
Shane : Mom ! It s Mom . Dad and I were just talking about you . How are you ?
Gigi : Oh , sweetie , I m fine now that I m hearing your voice .
Shane : How come you never called ?
Gigi : Well , I -- I tried last night . I left a message . Did nt you get it ?
Shane : We did nt check the machine . Are you coming home soon ?
Gigi : As soon as I can get a flight . Hopefully I will be home by tonight .
Shane : This is the longest you ve ever been gone .
Gigi : I know , baby , I miss you so much .
Brody : Can I talk to your mom a minute ?
Shane : Sure . Dad wants to talk to you . I love you , Mom .
Gigi : I love you , too , baby .
Brody : Gigi ?
Gigi : Hello , Brody .
Brody : It s good to hear from you . That lady , Delphina , said some things that -- well , I m just glad to hear your voice . Where are you ?
Gigi : Texas .
Brody : Did you find what you were looking for ?
Gigi : Yeah , I found Rex .
Bitterman : I m sorry , your highness , but I need to speak to you about a matter of utmost importance .
Talia : Come in , Bitterman .
Bitterman : Oh , I m sorry , your highness . Had I known --
Talia : If you could just keep your voice down , the prince is still sleeping .
Bitterman : [ Whispers ] Pardon me , your highness .
Talia : The prince and I , we had a very long and active night , and the people of Mendorra and my father will be pleased to know that my husband and I have performed our duty . We can officially be crowned king and queen . Our marriage has been consummated .
Talia : What was so important that you had to come and interrupt the royal morning after ?
Bitterman : I m sorry , your highness , but I felt you and the prince needed to know that the world press is protesting the media blackout .
Talia : On what grounds ?
Bitterman : Your marriage and , well , the aftermath are generating worldwide headlines , and now we have even more news to report .
Talia : Right , so I ve got to get it out there that we got it on .
Bitterman : I have no intention of being so crass , but all of Mendorra has been quite anxious , as has your own father , although I have been having trouble locating him this morning .
Talia : Oh , well , last night he told me that he s going to get up before dawn today and hunt wild boar .
Bitterman : Will he be back soon ? I do nt know how much longer I can put off the press .
Talia : Bitterman , you re getting on my nerves , okay ? Obviously , the prince and I have performed our obligations as set forth in the Mendorran charter , which means I m queen . So I order you to lift the media blackout and let all of the reporters into the palace .
Bitterman : Oh , but if I could just speak to your --
Talia : Bitterman , the prince and I , we have some damage control that we have to do . We need to allay our subjects concern --
Talia : About the monarchy . Oh , honey , I m coming . Thank you , why do nt you just give us about 20 more minutes , okay ? Okay .
Talia : Was I , like , a little over the top ?
Antonio : No , it sounded to me like you had everything under control .
Sarah : You had attitude , girl . You d make a good queen .
Talia : Ugh , it made me sick just lying in bed with Jonas . He s so gross .
Antonio : Well , you ll never have to do that again .
Sarah : Come on , let s go get you tricked out , Queenie . Stop .
Cristian : He s going to be out for a while . Time for phase two .
Tina : Look , I know it s been a few years since I ve seen her , but , I mean , the Jessica I always knew was sweet and nice and polite . But , I mean , this girl is out and out nasty . And she s -- she s so bossy . She acts like she owns the place .
Todd : Maybe she does nt enjoy your company .
Tina : Yeah , she has made that abundantly clear . I mean , she s practically thrown me out of my own home . I mean , she s more of a spoiled brat than David Vickers is .
Todd : David Vickers is nt living here , too , is he ?
Tina : Not the man , my dog .
Todd : Your dog s name is -- no , forget it . What else has Jessica done ?
Tina : Is nt that enough ? I mean , Natalie , who I just met , has practically rolled out the red carpet for me , but -- but Jessica , she has been a total b -- I am not going to say the word , but let me tell you it is not a word that I thought I would ever use to describe one of Viki s daughters .
Tess : [ As Jessica ] Look , John , I know what my uncle s done in the past and I understand why people feel the way they do about him , but in my heart , I know he s changed . I just do nt want to see him get punished for the man that he used to be . And I know you and I have always been straight with one another , and I just wanted you to know the truth .
John : Well , I appreciate that .
Tess : You re welcome . I ll let you get back to work .
John : Hey , before you go , um , would you mind if I asked you a couple of questions ?
Todd : Jessica s been through a lot . She needs to sort it all out in her head and try to heal .
Tina : I know , and I want to help her .
Todd : Give me a break . You re nothing but trouble . Jessica knows that .
Tina : I ca nt believe that you of all people would say that to me .
Todd : Well , look what s happened every time you ve come to town .
Tina : Look , I admit I have had my problems in the past , but you know what ? I ve grown up . I have , I ve changed . And I m here to spend time with Sarah and to , uh , bond with my family .
Todd : Mm - hmm .
Tina : And -- and Viki and I , we had a very sweet , albeit brief , reunion . And , you know , I think she would be thrilled to know that I was here in support of Jessica .
Todd : Viki does nt know you re here ?
Tina : Where else would I be ? In fact , I was thinking about calling Viki to let her know how nasty Jessica has been to me , so I think I m going to do it right now .
Todd : Oh , no , no , no . You do nt want to do that .
Tina : Why not ? So tell me , um , why are you so protective of our little niece , and why are you so desperate to talk to her ?
Gigi : Are you alone now , Brody ?
Brody : Yeah .
Gigi : What the hell were you thinking telling Balsom that you and I slept together ?
Brody : He told you , huh ?
Gigi : He sure did .
Brody : I m sorry , Gigi . I know that was stupid .
Gigi : Stupid ? It was a total lie .
Brody : It just came out , all right ? You were a mess because of him . I wanted to shut the guy down . I mean , he s still married .
Gigi : Okay , that does nt make it all right for you to lie to him about us .
Brody : Look , the last thing I want is for Balsom to screw up what we ve got going for Shane . I mean , he s finally feeling like he s got a family .
Gigi : So it was all about protecting Shane .
Brody : Okay , maybe I m finally feeling like I ve got something in my own life worth fighting for -- you and Shane . Now , I do nt want Balsom ruining that . Gigi , are you still there ?
Gigi : I m here .
Brody : Shane s , uh , we re just glad to hear you re safe . We ll talk to you when you get back .
Gigi : Yeah , we have a lot to talk about .
Gigi : How can I do this ?
Rex : What ?
Gigi : Take Shane away from Brody .
Rex : Brody s not Shane s father , I am .
Gigi : I know that , but Shane does nt .
Rex : Yeah , because you lied to him , too .
Gigi : Okay , fine , but that does nt change the fact that Shane loves Brody .
Rex : Wait , are -- are you saying we should nt tell Shane I m his father ?
Gigi : No , I m not saying that we should nt ever tell Shane . I ve wanted to tell him a million times since you came back into my life . And I know that he has to find out now , I know .
Rex : Okay , well , do nt make it sound like it s going to be so painful for him .
Gigi : He s spent his whole life thinking Brody was his dad .
Rex : I know that , but he just met Brody for real , like , what , three months ago ? It s not like he grew up with the guy .
Gigi : He grew up with the idea that his dad died a hero , and then Brody came back . Ca nt you understand what that meant to Shane ?
Rex : Yes . And I know I m not some kind of hero , but it s not like Shane hates me .
Gigi : No , he likes you . He likes you a lot .
Rex : Well , do nt you think that will make things easier for him ?
Gigi : Not for Brody . He s crazy about Shane .
Rex : Who cares about Brody ? The guy only showed up because somebody paid him .
Gigi : Yeah , your wife .
Rex : Okay , look , this is nt getting us anywhere .
Gigi : Rex , you have to understand that -- I put everything on the line when I stood up at your wedding and I told you how I felt in front of all those people , and then you went ahead and you married Adriana . And yeah , I wish that we were together when Brody showed up , but we were nt . So , I mean , what was I supposed to do ? I mean , I know -- I know Brody has his faults . I know that . But he really has tried to clean up his act for Shane and me .
Rex : Gigi , Brody knows that I m Shane s father . He ll understand why Shane needs to know the truth .
Gigi : But will Shane understand ? Or will our son hate me for lying to him for his whole life ?
Brody : You feeling better now that you ve heard from her ?
Shane : Am I a wuss for missing her so much ?
Brody : If you are , then you re looking at another wuss because I miss her , too .
Shane : Wait until she hears about that test .
Brody : Maybe we should hold off on telling her about that .
Shane : Why ?
Brody : Let s keep it as a surprise .
Shane : Okay , if that s what you want .
Brody : What did you get from your room ?
Shane : I want us to put these pictures in my scrapbook . This is me right after baseball practice this year .
Brody : Is that Rex with you ?
Shane : He took me .
Brody : Great . I want to see the rest of the scrapbook .
Shane : I made it so that you could know about my life , but I do nt really know anything about yours , except that you were a Navy Seal and a hero .
Brody : Well , I do nt know about the hero part .
Shane : Do you have any pictures ?
Brody : There was nt a lot of time for taking pictures .
Shane : Well , maybe you can just tell me . It s been 10 years -- that s my whole life . A lot must have happened to you in 10 years .
Lindsay : How could you possibly want to thank me for pretty much ruining your life ?
Bo : All this made me realize that I ve lived my life in a -- in a reaction to my father , even after he died .
Lindsay : Bo , you ve never , ever been anything like your father .
Bo : And I did everything I possibly could to make sure that I was nt , but I think I went too far . When I decided to ask you to marry me , all of a sudden , I could nt help but think about how Pa would have reacted . It gave me a chuckle .
Lindsay : You asked me to marry you to tick off your dead father ?
Bo : No , no . I asked you to marry me because I care so much about you . I thought if I could -- if I could overlook the problems , then I would finally be taking control of my life .
Lindsay : Well , this just keeps getting better and better . I ca nt wait to hear the punch line .
Bo : No , Lindsay , I m just -- I was blindsided when I found out what you had done .
Lindsay : I m sorry that I hurt you . You ca nt imagine how sorry I am .
Bo : I know . And I was hurt , I was . I was hurt so much that I decided to just turn my back on everybody else that I cared about and run away . Imagine that -- at my age , I ran away . But if I had nt done that , I would nt have found what I did .
Lindsay : What did you find ?
Bo : I found myself .
Sarah : Good luck .
Talia : Thanks .
Cristian : We ll take care of everything here . Are you up for what we have to do now ?
Sarah : I m up for it if you re up for it .
Cristian : Let s do it .
Todd : Jessica has lost her husband and she s pregnant and her mom s out of town , so I m worried about her .
Tina : You did nt act so worried a few minutes ago . In fact , you seemed mad .
Todd : How would you know the difference ?
Tina : Look , whatever Jessica is going through does not give her the right to be rude to me and David Vickers . He just wanted to go down to the basement .
Todd : The basement ?
Tina : Yeah , he just wanted to sniff around in the basement , and I do nt know , she -- she went ballistic . She acted like he was going to attack her child or something . She even locked the basement door .
Todd : What s in the basement ?
Tina : You got me .
Tess : [ As Jessica ] What would you like to ask me , John ?
John : First off , how s everything with the baby ?
Tess : Oh , I went to the obstetrician -- I was a little worried about those pains . You were so nice , by the way . Thank you .
John : You went to the doctor ? I thought I saw your car outside when I left .
Tess : You did . I -- I took a cab . I did nt want to take any chances . But she examined me , and I m okay .
John : Good , that s good .
Tess : You know , this pregnancy , doing it alone -- when I carried Bree , I had Nash .
John : I m very sorry for your loss .
Tess : Thank you . Can I talk to you about something else ?
John : Mm .
Tess : I m a little worried about Natalie .
John : Why is that ?
Tess : She s blaming herself for what happened to Nash . And I keep on telling her over and over and over again that it s not her fault , but you know how she gets when she has trouble dealing with things . She can be a little reckless , and I just do nt want her doing anything rash , you know ?
John : What do you think she might do ?
Tess : I do nt know . I do nt know what she would do . I just think that it s important for her to be around the people that love her and the people that care about her . I just do nt want her running off and hiding on us , and you know -- you have enough on your shoulders right now . I m sure you have lots of work to do . You do nt have to worry about this .
John : No , it s no problem .
Tess : This would nt be the case file on the mystery woman and Todd , would it ?
John : Oh , no , you do nt want to touch that . There s scary monsters in there .
Tess : Oh , sure .
John : Thanks for coming down .
Tess : Thanks . I just wanted to do the right thing .
John : Hmm .
Tess : Bye .
John : Bye .
Todd : What else did Jessica say ?
Tina : Other than get out ? Not much .
Todd : Yeah , well , do nt give her any trouble , okay ? And do nt bother Viki with this . She s in Africa doing her goody - two - shoes thing . She does nt need to be worrying about Jessica or worrying about the fact that you think Jessica hates you .
Tina : Well , I really do nt care whether she likes me or not . This is my home , too , and I need a roof over my head .
Todd : She s not going to throw you out .
Tina : Bye , Todd . Nice to see you again , brother .
Tina : Here you are again , my lovelies . Mm - mwah .
Talia : Everyone in this room knows that Mendorra is my adopted country and that my marriage to the crown prince was arranged , as marriages have been for centuries in this country . My husband and I , we understand those circumstances , and we also understand that the purpose for our union was to produce an heir for the Mendorran throne . Ladies and gentlemen , I can promise you that the people of Mendorra will not be disappointed . Yes .
Reporter : Why are you making this announcement without the prince ?
Talia : My husband would have been here , but he promised my father that he was going to go boar hunting with him this morning . The two of them are very close . They ve spent a great deal of time together .
Reporter : Why is your father so involved in government affairs ?
Second Reporter : Is nt he a career criminal ?
Talia : My father changed profoundly while he was in prison , and -- well , I feel very blessed that he and my husband are so close . So now that you guys have been so patient waiting for news , I d like to take you on a tour of the palace .
Bitterman : But , your highness , no --
Talia : The palace itself was erected in 1547 for King Rubolov iii in celebration of his marriage to Queen Margaret of Fredonia .
Bitterman : But , your highness --
Talia : Right now we re in the grand salon .
Newscaster : This is Gloria Teasdale coming to you from Mendorra , where princess Talia Hesser von Hohenstein , daughter of Carlo Hesser --
Tina : Oh , this I ve got to see .
Newscaster : Is welcoming the world to her country and to her new home , the palace of Mendorra .
Talia : Now I will take you all upstairs to the grand hall and the royal suites . Right this way .
Tina : Oh , my .
Todd : Just make it happen . Ah .
Tess : What are you doing here ?
Todd : Where the hell have you been ?
Tess : Nice . Not that it s any of your business , but I was doing some damage control .
Todd : What does that mean ?
Tess : Well , I was trying to make sure that your little secret game with Marty Saybrooke stays a secret .
Todd : Why ?
Tess : Leverage -- you know , I have my secret , and you have yours .
Todd : Oh , that you re Tess , the nut job , and no longer the lovely Jessica ?
Todd : By the way , you might want to try acting like a little less of a bitch around here .
Tess : Okay , stop it . That s enough , thank you . Keep your voice down .
Todd : So how did you do it ?
Tess : I went to go and see John McBain .
Todd : What ?
Tess : Well , I was just letting him know that there is absolutely no way that --
Todd : God , you idiot ! Why ?
Tess : What ?
Todd : They did nt find anything at my house . Why would you go and wave a red flag around him ?
Tess : I did nt do that . I totally sold him . You re welcome , by the way .
Todd : Well , shut up about it ! God , stay away from McBain .
Tess : Todd --
Todd : Is Jessica in there anywhere ?
Tess : I have her totally under control , thanks .
Todd : You know , it s just as well , I guess . When she comes out , she s not going to like what I m doing with Marty .
Tess : Look , Todd , when I left John McBain , the case of the mysterious woman was officially closed . You do nt have to worry about it .
Lindsay : You found yourself ?
Bo : Mm . I took a trip to my past . I went back to my roots , and in my head , I settled some things that I should have settled a long time ago .
Lindsay : Things about your father ?
Bo : Pa s been dead for over a year , but I feel like I just buried him . And I m finally able to know what he was and what he was nt . And if it were nt for you , I d have never made that journey .
Lindsay : I m glad you re feeling better about things .
Bo : I also wanted to say that I m not sure that I can ever forgive you , but I understand . I do . You did everything you did out of love . And I know now , I mean , everything in the world is not just black and white . Love -- misguided love can make people do some extreme things .
Bo : I hope your time here goes quickly .
Lindsay : Thank you . Maybe when I get out --
Bo : Good luck , Lindsay .
Brody : The thing about my life is it was nt all that interesting .
Shane : You were a Navy Seal . That had to be awesome .
Brody : I thought it would be . It sort of boiled down to a bunch of guys hanging out in the desert and trying not to get killed .
Shane : I still want to hear about it .
Brody : Maybe some other time , okay ?
Shane : Okay . Here s the other picture . It is the most important one of all because it shows the best thing that ever happened to me in my entire life -- you coming home .
Rex : There is no way Shane is going to hate you .
Gigi : But I ve been lying to him for his whole life .
Rex : He ll understand why . And Shane knows better than anybody what a great mother you ve been . We ll explain everything to him together .
Gigi : Okay . I know we have to tell him . I know . I want to , but we have to find the best way and the right time to do it .
Rex : Okay .
Gigi : And about the other thing --
Rex : What other thing ? Oh . Oh , this other thing .
John : Hey , it s McBain . When are you going to have that 3D reconstruction done for me ? Well , good . It s going to be a lot easier to find this woman when we know what she looks like .
Bo : Good morning , Commissioner .
Shane : Can you believe Mom dressed me as a lion for Halloween ? How dorky is that ?
Brody : No , you look great . Not too scary , though .
Gigi : I do nt think we should do that .
Rex : You sure ? We re pretty good at it .
Gigi : Until things get a little less complicated , I think we should , you know --
Rex : Back off ? Yeah , I got that when we got here last night and you asked Chuck for two rooms .
Gigi : I m sorry that I ve made such a mess out of everything .
Rex : It s my fault . I should nt have run out on you without a word .
Gigi : I wonder how we would have handled it all together ? We were so young . It could have been even more of a disaster .
Rex : Uh , I m not so sure Shane would have turned out as well as he did if I had been in his life . Back then I was nt exactly the model citizen .
Gigi : Well , the only way we could find out is if we went back in time .
Rex : Right . And we both know that s impossible .
Brody : That was the messenger from the hospital .
Shane : Is it about the test ?
Brody : Yep . It s official .
Shane : Brody Lovett and Shane Morasco , positive DNA match . Wow .
Brody : I m your father now . No one can ever take you away from me .
Talia : These marble floors are the original , and these tapestries are actually 17th century French . Right this way . Here we are at the royal bedchamber where the heir might well have been conceived last night .
Reporter : May we see the room , please ?
Talia : Of course . We do nt have any secrets here in Mendorra .
Tina : Oh , my . Looks like Carlo learned a few skills in prison .
Reporter : How embarrassing .
Second Reporter : Unbelievable .
Todd : You better be right about McBain .
Tess : I am right . He s not going to find out that you re hiding Marty Saybrooke at your house . That is , as long as you keep quiet about me .
Todd : You mean that you re Tess or what you re hiding in the basement ?

Brooke : I still could nt believe it , when Ridge told me that Stephanie was abused by her own father .
Taylor : Yeah , it s true .
Brooke : It just does nt seem possible . I mean , Stephanie is such a strong , self - assured woman .
Taylor : But it does explain her need to control everything and everyone in her life .
Brooke : And her need to protect her own children . Ridge told me that her father beat her with a belt .
Taylor : Yes .
Brooke : I do nt really understand , though , because Stephanie always talked about her father as being a good dad , and he was a pillar of the community .
Taylor : Mm - hmm , until he had too much to drink , or a bad day . Ann was no prize , either .
Brooke : Well , obviously not , since she wanted everybody to think that she was dead .
Taylor : And she had absolutely no intention of ever seeing her again until I convinced her she would nt get any healing until she confronted her .
Brooke : Because Ann knew what was going on , and she did nt do anything to stop it ?
Taylor : Ann would nt even acknowledge that anything was happening .
Brooke : That is so sad . I understand what it feels like to be abandoned by your own father . And sometimes I feel like my life has been a whole reaction to my father walking out on me . Maybe Stephanie s life has been a reaction to her father abusing her .
Taylor : That s exactly what it is . But , at least now she s facing a reality , and her life is about to change dramatically .
Brooke : Well , not just her life -- Eric s life . And her children s lives , as well .
Thorne : Here , hon .
Felicia : Oh , god , no , thanks . I ca nt eat , my stomach s in knots .
Thorne : Yeah , mine , too . Ever since dad called last night .
Felicia : That s what I needed . One more thing to make me not be able to sleep .
Ridge : Pretty lonely with Dante in Italy , huh ?
Felicia : I never thought I d be disappointed that Dominick started sleeping through the night .
Thorne : So Dante got a sculpting commission ?
Felicia : He had to . He s not getting a paycheck from Forrester anymore .
Ridge : When s he coming back ?
Felicia : Maybe when you guys get off your butts and help me start this new company . So hop to it , already .
Ridge : We re trying , we re trying . We ve got all this stuff with mother now .
Felicia : I know . I still ca nt believe she was abused by her father .
Thorne : And keeping it a secret .
Ridge : Telling us grandma Douglas was dead ?
Thorne : Yeah , but I ca nt blame her , though . After what she did to her , she does nt deserve to have a relationship with us .
Felicia : I hope mother tore her head off yesterday . That selfish , old bitch , pretending like nothing was e that needs his head torn off . Abusing a child like that ? There s no excuse for that , ever .
Stephanie : Hey .
Felicia : Welcome back .
Stephanie : Hi , honey , I m so glad to be back .
Felicia : If there s anything we can do --
Thorne : Just name it .
Stephanie : Thank you , sweetheart .
Eric : See , I told you they would not be upset with you .
Ridge : Oh , what are we going to be upset with her for ?
Stephanie : Because I did nt tell you .
Thorne : Well , Taylor explained that , mom .
Felicia : You had to go to Chicago to confront your mother .
Ridge : We understand all that , Mother .
Stephanie : Yeah , I know , it s just -- I think what I m upset about is that I -- well , I just kind of let you think I had this incredible childhood , and I just pushed all of that ugliness out of my mind . And as a result , I pushed my mother out of my life and out of yours .
Felicia : Are you kidding ? If you think we wanted anything to do with that woman after the way she treated you , forget it .
Stephanie : Growing up the way I did damaged me , and the truth I needed to control everything . And as a result , I interfered in your marriages and your relationships . And ultimately , it cost your father the company . I m not making excuses , I want you to know that . But I also want you to -- it s just such an enormous sense of relief to understand why . And I just want you , and you , and you to understand , too . Okay ?
Felicia : If you think this justifies that 11 : 00 curfew you gave me when I was 16 -- I m not buying it , lady .
Thorne : Well , at least now we know why you ve been so protective .
Ridge : And we re very grateful for that , believe it or not .
Felicia : I would nt go that far . But I
Thorne : Yeah , we love you , Mom .
Stephanie : Thank you , sweetheart .
Ridge : And we would nt change that for anything .
Brooke : I always wondered why Stephanie was so angry . I just assumed it was me . That she was jealous of the relationships I had with the men in her family .
Taylor : Not all of her anger was misplaced . But it does help explain why she went to such lengths to get you out of Ridge s life . I mean , she just has this uncontrollable need to control her family .
Brooke : Do you think she ll be able to get past this ?
Taylor : Well , it wo nt happen overnight , but it is a start . You know what I find most amazing about Stephanie is that she chose on her own to break this cycle of abuse . I mean , the only good thing about the way she s handled this is that she did become overly protective . Not that that does nt create problems of its own . The damage of abuse trickles down family generations for a long time unless it s broken . We have this saying in therapy -- There s no excuse for abuse . And a lot of people think that just means physical abuse , but also verbal abuse is very damaging . If a child is told that they re stupid constantly , or they re shamed for making a mistake , or they re told that they re worthless , it literally shatters their identity . No child should ever have to go through that . I do nt think any kind of abuse should be tolerated .
Brooke : No , it s true . Not physical , not verbal . We , as parents , we need to be responsible and protect them . And if we do nt , who will ?
Ridge : Are you telling us that no one else knew ?
Stephanie : No . My sister Pam .
Felicia : I never would have guessed it . After everything you ve told us about granddad , all the stories .
Thorne : You admired him so much .
Stephanie : I think telling would probably have been just too painful for me .
Felicia : Well , at least you did nt blame yourself .
Stephanie : Oh , no , honey , I ve blamed myself .
Thorne : Mother , he beat you with a belt .
Eric : You re right , Thorne . It was nt discipline , it was abuse . And your grandmother allowed it .
Ridge : So you went to her for help . She knew about all of this and did nothing . How could she do that ?
Thorne : How could a parent ignore their own child s cry for help ?
Stephanie : Well , let s -- the times were different then , honey . My father ruled the family . He s the one that put the roof over our heads .
Felicia : that does nt excuse your mother not defending her own flesh and blood . You went to her and she turned her back on you .
Stephanie : 30 years ago -- I did nt tell you this . When your grandfather died , I went to her then , and I thought , Well , now we ll be able to talk about it . It was the same way yesterday , when I -- god , after all those years , when I tried to confront her --
Ridge : So she still would nt acknowledge what happened ?
Stephanie : No . But Taylor said what s important is that I acknowledged it . I said it . I confronted her and said , you know , this is what happened , and this is what you did nt do . It was really hard , I ll tell you that . I was just -- but your dad gave me the strength .
Eric : I was just there for moral support . Our mother wo nt be driving us crazy sometime before dinner -- [ All laughing ] But you ve made this progress all alone . I ve said it before , I ll say it again . You re an amazing woman .
Stephanie : Oh , honey .
Eric : You are .
Stephanie : Thank you . Thank you .
Ridge : So your mother ca nt face what your dad did wrong . But maybe your father did .
Stephanie : We never spoke of it .
Ridge : And yet he put Forrester Creations in your name .
Thorne : Do you think he was trying to make amends ?
Eric : No , it s just his way of keeping control over his daughter , proving what kind of a wonderful father he was .
Felicia : All the stock and money in the world does nt make up for beating your child . I want to put it behind me , and I want to move on , and I want you all to do the same thing . But I would like you to promise me something . When you go home today , I want you to grab those children of yours and give them a big kiss and hug and tell them you love them , because you never can say it enough .
Ridge : Okay , we also love you , too .
Taylor : Hope we re not intruding .
Eric : Not at all , you two . Come on in .
Brooke : Ridge told me . I m sorry Stephanie .
Stephanie : Thank you , Brooke .
Brooke : I understand now . And I want you to know that I m here for you .
Stephanie : Oh , thank you .
Brooke : You wanted to give your children the life that you never had , and you did . You did , Stephanie . This little moment , but I would like to speak to Stephanie privately for a minute .
Eric : Of course .
Stephanie : We can go to the den .
Brooke : She seems okay .
Eric : It was pretty hard for her to confront her mother .
Ridge : It would have been a lot harder if you had nt stepped in for moral support . I know it s been real difficult dealing with her the last long while , but Dad , you stepped up .
Felicia : Mom s not the only one we re proud of today .
Eric : Thanks , honey . Thank you .
Stephanie : Thank you . I needed a moment just to catch my breath .
Taylor : Yeah . All that support s a little overwhelming .
Stephanie : It was terrible at my mother s . I thought I was going to have one of those classic anxiety attacks . There we were , standing in the ay , I just did nt know how I was going to be able to say it . But Eric was wonderful .
Taylor : Well , you still found the strength to say what you need to say .
Stephanie : Because of him . I just wish that --
Taylor : What ?
Stephanie : Oh , she did nt hear , she did nt listen . She s never going to acknowledge that it happened .
Taylor : You knew she might not .
Stephanie : Yes , I did . And you told me . The most important thing is that I said it , I acknowledged it . I mean , my whole adult life , I have been excusing the inexcusable . And confronting my mother after all these years really was -- it was cathartic . And I got to thinking , all the way back on the plane , I wondered , I thought to myself , What would my life be like now ? What would I have been like if I d had the opportunity to confront my father ?
Taylor : You still can . It is nt too late .
Ridge : Hey , you want to join everybody in the kitchen ?
Brooke : In a minute . I want to talk to you first .
Ridge : Sure .
Brooke : How are you doing ?
Ridge : I m okay .
Brooke : I know how much you love your mother , and to see her going through this ca nt be easy .
Ridge : We ve all been going through it , in a way , have nt we ? For years . We just did nt know it . The abuse my mother was going through kind of rippled into all of our lives .
Brooke : I know , and I m sure she regrets that .
Ridge : I just wish I understood it before now .
Brooke : Well , now we know , and we can help her .
Ridge : My mother s getting through it . I think the thing that really gets me is how many kids are still out there , feeling the effects of abuse , like my mother , or worse . It seems like there s got to be something we can do about it .
Brooke : Well , we just ca nt forget that abuse can happen anywhere , in any home . I mean , even in families like our own . We have to keep our eyes and ears open , at the kids schools , at their sports , with their friends .
Ridge : People sometimes feel like it s easier just to ignore it or turn the other away , but if we can prevent one kid from going through what my mother went through , I think it s worth it .
Brooke : Me , too .
Stephanie : Well , it is too late . He s dead .
Taylor : It s too late to talk to him face to face . But it s not too late to tell him how you feel . You stood up to your mother and even though she did nt listen to you that it still felt cathartic ?
Stephanie : Yes .
Taylor : And did nt that validate your feelings to stand up for yourself ? You can still do that . Come on , you know ? You ve come so far , you should nt stop right now . I ll just help you do this -- think of your father s face , and remember every detail . Remember the furrow in his brow , and hear his voice when he s yelling at you . See him standing there with his pipe and his martini . And then tell him how you feel .
Stephanie : I think I would feel ridiculous doing this .
Taylor : What if he were standing right in front of you ? And then suddenly he started approaching you , aggressively , like he did when you were a little girl ?
Stephanie : Right now I would be very angry .
Taylor : Well , do nt tell me , tell him .
Stephanie : You mean , Taylor , I loved my father , but I was afraid of him . I was afraid of his temper --
Taylor : Do nt tell me that . Say what you wanted to say to him .
Stephanie : This is difficult . Dad , you said you loved me . But you hit me . You abused me as a little girl , I do nt know how you could do that . How could you do that ? I trusted you , I loved you . I always thought you were the bravest and strongest person in the world , but you know what I think ? I think you were a coward , and what you did was wrong ! It was wrong !
Taylor : See ? You can protect yourself .

Thomas : Yeah .
Steffy : Mm .
Thomas : It was about our date last night . Dad set it up .
Steffy : Oh , Mr. Romance himself . ( Laughs )

Thomas : Thanks . ( Chuckles ) So are you here to brainstorm P.R. ideas for Taboo ?
Steffy : No .
Thomas : Okay , then what are you doing here , Steffy ? Cause I am a little busy .
Steffy : Thomas ... seriously .
Thomas : ( Sighs )
Steffy : Are you ever gon na open up to me about what happened ?
Katie : I know Taylor was really concerned about your reaction at the press conference .
Brooke : ( Sighs )
Donna : But come on . You know Taylor . She s probably just overreacting , overly concerned . She s a shrink after all .
Katie : Well , the important thing is that you re home with Ridge right where you belong .
Brooke : Right . ( Sighs ) Well , enough about me . ( Laughs ) I want to hear about what s going on with you , Katie . I know you moved back in with Bill recently . How is it living with him again ?
Justin : You and Steffy spent a good amount of time together searching for Brooke and Thomas . It must have been quite an experience if you ca nt stop thinking about her .
Bill : When we heard Thomas voice , when we realized that he and Brooke were alive , I mean , we had gone trough a tremendous amount to find them . When I saw what it meant to Steffy , how much he loves her brother , I do nt know . I - it affected me somehow . I ca nt really explain it .
Justin : So you and Steffy are on the plane . She s crazy about you . You just shared this monumental moment . What happened next ? Or should I ask ?
Bill : It s not what you re thinking .
Justin : Something happened . The girl s been throwing herself at you .
Bill : She told me she loved me .
Justin : ( Scoffs ) Wow , okay . So how did you handle that ?
Bill : I told her I loved her , too .
Dayzee : Love , hmm ? I do nt know . It s a big word , Anthony .
Anthony : Well , Dayzee , you do have that glow in those beautiful eyes .
Dayzee : Well , a did have an amazing date last night .
Anthony : Oh , really ?
Dayzee : Mm - hmm .
Anthony : Is that with Mr. Thomas Forrester , I presume ?
Dayzee : Yes , it was with Thomas . You know , he s a great guy . He s charming , and he treats me so good , which is , you know , new , and I do nt know . I ve never met anyone like him . You know what ? Actually , I ca nt wait for you to get to know him better , hmm ?
Anthony : Mm - hmm . You know , it sounds to me like the l word may not be too far behind .
Dayzee : ( Groans ) You know , maybe .
Anthony : You know what ? Seriously , I m thrilled for you , Dayzee . I mean , with all the love that you ve given so many people , you deserve someone real special in your life .
Dayzee : ( Sighs ) Thank you .
Thomas : There s nothing more to tell , okay ? It was what it was-- an awful experience that I just-- I want to put behind me .
Steffy : Okay . No , I - I get it . That s the way you deal with things .
Thomas : ( Sighs )
Steffy : But I m here if you want to talk .
Thomas : Do nt count on it . But I appreciate the concern . So you and Bill spent a lot of time alone together while searching for us . Anything happen with you two ?
Steffy : Um , well , he told me he loved me .
Thomas : He told you he loved you ?
Steffy : Yes . ( Chuckles )
Thomas : Wow . He is married . Just do nt forget that , Steff .
Steffy : Trust me . I Have nt .
Thomas : Okay , just be careful . You do own a lot of Forrester stock .
Steffy : Thomas , do nt worry . I m gon na be fine , okay ?
Thomas : I got ta go . I - I got someplace to be .
Steffy : But can I just get one more hug before I go ?
Thomas : Oh , Sis .
Steffy : ( Laughs )
Brooke : Katie , is everything okay with you and Bill ?
Katie : Yea . ( Sighs ) No . ( Sighs )
Donna : No ? What -- what do you mean , no ?
Katie : I just -- I thought that we would be able to reconnect , you know ? I - I thought that we would just go back to the way we were . But it has nt been the smoothest transition .
Brooke : He has to be happy that you re home .
Katie : I guess so . It s just that we have nt been intimate since I ve been back .
Donna : You re joking , right ?
Katie : No and that s not like us . We normally ca nt keep our hands off of each other .
Brooke : Maybe he just has resentment towards you for leaving .
Katie : Yeah , I think that much is clear . He definitely does .
Donna : I - I do nt know , Katie . Um , you know , something s off . You -- you have nt been in his bed for weeks , weeks , and now you are , and he s not doing anything about it ? I hate to say this , but , uh , do nt you wonder if maybe something more is going on with Bill ?
Katie : ( Sighs )
Justin : You re in love with Steffy , or is this lust ?
Bill : Lust-- listen , I know lust , and I wish that s all it was . That would make this a whole lot easier .
Justin : ( Sighs ) Yeah .
Bill : But no , it s deeper than that . Look , I may not need to say this , Justin , but I m going to say it anyway .
Justin : Okay .
Bill : What we discuss within the confines of this office stays in this office . What we discuss as men , as friends , stays between us . You re in a unique situation now . You are married to Katie s sister . Do not betray my trust .
Justin : Of course not .
Bill : ( Sighs ) The only other woman I have ever said I love you to ...
Justin : ( Sighs )
Bill : Is my wife .
Justin : So what does that mean for Katie ? I know you still love her , too .
Bill : Yes , I do love her .
Justin : Mm - hmm .
Bill : But there are issues .
Justin : So what ? She walked out on you ?
Bill : She betrayed me .
Justin : Betrayed you ? ( Scoffs )
Bill : She revealed something in that therapy session , something that could get me arrested .
Justin : It was professional . Confidentiality is protected .
Bill : Well , there are certain things that a therapist may be compelled to reveal . I just ca nt believe Katie said what she said .
Justin : She did nt mean to--
Bill : It was a very isolated , dark moment .
Justin : ( Sighs ) Okay , but she did nt mean to hurt you , Bill .
Bill : No , she did nt , but she did . And things have nt been the same since . She compromised my trust , Justin . I have nt even been physical with her ...
Justin : ( Scoffs )
Bill : And you know me .
Justin : Yes , I know you . So does that mean things have changed between you and Katie , or is it your feelings for Steffy ? I mean , what s he real issue here , Bill ? Whoa .
Katie : Wow , thanks , Donna . Way to make me feel better .
Donna : ( Sighs ) Look , Katie , I - I m not trying to be insensitive . I m sorry . I - I know he loves you . But I do nt really trust him . ( Stammers ) And it s not because of what he almost did with Amber , but it -- it s because of his past involvement with Steffy .
Katie : Trust me . I am keeping close tabs on Steffy . I am not going to let her become an issue .
Donna : Are you sure ?
Brooke : ( Sighs ) Donna .
Donna : Well , I mean , Steffy and Bill were together the whole time they were searching for you and Thomas , and you know Steffy . You know her . I would nt put it past her to -- to make a pass at him .
Katie : Look , I m not gon na do myself any favors by getting all insecure . I had my reasons for leaving , but I understand why he s upset . And I m just gon na have to work harder to fix things , but I will fix things . I have confidence in my marriage .
Bill : Katie feels I need to be fixed . Steffy loves e for who I am . She does nt want o change me .
Justin : So what are you gon na do ? You re in love with two women , and at some point , you re gon na have to make a choice . ( Scoffs ) I wish you luck , Man .
Steffy : Hello .
Bill : I need to see you .
Steffy : When ?
Bill : Now . Meet me somewhere . It s important .
Steffy : Um , I m -- I m staying at my grandparents guesthouse . Meet me there .
Bill : I m on my way .
Donna : Now you call us if you need anything . Promise .
Brooke : Oh , I promise . And thank you for coming by . You two are just amazing .
Donna : ( Sighs )
Katie : Oh , hey , what are you doing here ? I thought you d be at the office .
Thomas : Uh , I just-- I just forgot some sketches here last night .
Katie : Oh .
Donna : Okay , well , you hang in there .
Brooke : Yeah . ( Sighs )
Donna : We love you so much .
Brooke : Love you . Bye .
Katie : Love you . See ya .
Donna : Bye .
Thomas : Bye .
Thomas : You okay ? You did nt come into work today .
Brooke : Oh . Yeah . I just did nt feel up to it . So how was your date with Dayzee last night ?
Thomas : It was incredible . What Dad did or us , it really means a lot .
Brooke : Yeah , she is an amazing young woman .
Thomas : She s also very intuitive . She thinks there s something wrong with me , but I do nt want to talk about it . I just want to forget what happened .
Brooke : When you were having dinner with Dayzee last night , did you feel like confiding in her ?
Thomas : Wait , are y -- are you asking me this because you are considering telling Dad ? Look , this is hard on me , too . I m having to keep secret from my father . But it s better for him not to know .
Brooke : I still think he d understand . There were extreme , extenuating circumstances . And , yes , we shared a closeness , but that was it . ( Sighs ) I wish to God it never happened .
Thomas : ( Sighs ) Look , you just have to forget it . Put it out of your mind . We ca nt confide in anybody . I ca nt tell Dayzee , and you ca nt tell your sisters . And you can never , ever tell Dad .
Brooke : I do nt know if I can go on keeping this from Ridge . And making it into this huge secret only makes it worse .
Thomas : We do nt even know for sure what really happened you know , how far it went .
Brooke : All I can believe is that it was two people that were completely out of their minds , near death , in this different world . It was nt real . There s no way that you and I ... ( Sighs ) We could nt have . No , that did nt happen .
Thomas : No , it was nt us . It was the berries .
Brooke : Okay , okay . Well , then , if it was the berries-- you know , they probably saved our lives , and for that reason , Ridge would understand .
Thomas : Brooke , you do nt want to hurt him . You do nt want to put these things in his mind , so do nt tell him .
Brooke : Ridge trusts me , and I promised him that I would never , ever keep anything from him ever again .
Thomas : ( Sighs )
Brooke : I gave him my solemn word . How can I just ignore that ?
Steffy : Oh , my God .
Steffy : Hi . Come on in . I m glad you called . I ve been wanting to see you .
Bill : I needed to see you .
Steffy : Well , you ve been on my mind . And I think I ve been on your mind .
Bill : Steffy , I came--
Steffy : Stop . Just stop .

But she gave Ridge her solid word and she can not ignore that . Bill calls Steffy and says it is important . He needs to meet her right now . She s at her grandparent s guest house . She invites him in . She says she is glad he called ; she wanted to see him . He s been on her mind . He says he needed to see her , but before he can say more , she tells him to stop and she kisses him . He returns the kiss . |

Lauren : No .
Michael : No .
Kevin : I m such an idiot .
Gloria : She did nt come home last night .
Lauren : What ? Did you two have a fight ?

Lauren : She loves you . Maybe she just needs some time .
Michael : Yeah , once you have a chance to explain to her--

Sheila : I love you . I like this . Your husband is so sweet . He s a doll . You know ... when he comes home , I think I m gon na put you in the closet and get close and personal with him . Yeah . But then again , I m not the kind of woman to abandon my girlfriends for a hot guy . So let s stick with the play date . If you agree , say nothing . Oh , excellent . Mmm .
Korbel : Est , uh , means East in Italian , uh , and Is in Latin .
Colleen : Also in French . Oh , and it s also a suffix in English . Huh . Gosh , you know what ? That s great , but we re not getting anywhere .
Korbel : No , we re just getting started . I m up for the challenge if you are .
Kevin : Mom ? Go ask Emily if she s seen Jana .
Gloria : Okay , okay .
Man : Hey , Boss .
Kevin : Hey , have you seen Jana ?
Man : Not today . You still ca nt find her ?
Kevin : No . Um , do you remember anything about last night ? Was she with anyone ? Talking to anyone ?
Man : No . Wait , she was out on the patio with that , uh , Professor dude . The one who comes in all the time .
Kevin : Dark hair , drinks Americanos ?
Man : That s him . He and Jana were really getting into it .
Kevin : What did they say ?
Man : Could nt hear em . But whatever it was , the professor was ticked .
Kevin : Okay , thanks .
Gloria : She has nt seen her .
Kevin : Mom , go home . If Jana shows up , call me .
Gloria : Kevin , what is going on ?
Kevin : I do nt think my big confession s the reason we ca nt find her .
Nick : Tell me something , which of these documents actually matter ?
Jack : They all matter . Nicholas , I really do nt think we need to tag - team this guy .
Nick : Fine . We re gon na do this your way . When you come home with your butt kicked , we ll tell everyone you knew exactly what you were doing .
Jack : Believe me , I ve got this handled .
Nick : I m going home to my wife .
Sheila : I m trying to figure out who Summer looks like-- me or Nick .
Phyllis : Hmm .
Sheila : Do you wanna say something ? Okay . But just remember ... I m armed and dangerous .
Phyllis : I can help you .
Sheila : Really ?
Phyllis : Yes . I can help you . Listen ... there s a Newman account . And I ll give you the access code . Nobody has to know . Nobody at all . You could take my passport . It s a picture of you . You go far away and I will never tell anybody about this , okay ?
Sheila : Oh , interesting .
Phyllis : You would be rich . You d be free .
Phyllis : I can take care of this . I can make this happen for you .
Sheila : Or ... I can be the Newman . And I can be married to the hot guy . And Lauren can be my best friend . And we ll get baby clothes together .
Phyllis : I swear to you , if you do anything to my daughter , I will kill--
Sheila : Shut up . Hey , I really liked that talk . I feel we bonded . Like sisters . Maybe even twins .
Sheila : Talk to me !
Lauren : Prince Fenmore has finally awakened . So why do nt we meet at Crimson Lights ?
Sheila : No , no , Lauren , I want you to come here . I have some really great coffee .

Michael : Have fun .
Lauren : We re leaving now .
Sheila : See you soon . Lauren s coming . Lauren s coming over and she s dying to see you .
Scofield : It s very sensitive . Do nt whack it . And whatever you do , do nt smack it .
Jack : So no Tarzan-- okay . Yeah .
Sands : We ll be down the hall , listening in .
Jack : Thanks , guys .
Sands : Good luck , Mr. Abbott .
Jack : Yeah .
Victor : Yes ?
Jack : Hey , it s Jack . I m still in Madison .
Victor : So I guess Senator Bodi fails to see the light ?
Jack : I gave him enough to grow roses , but he did nt budge . Unfortunately , he does nt have your sense of ethics .
Victor : Then I suggest we go to plan B.
Jack : I m meeting him right after lunch . I m already wired . The Feds are down the hall .
Victor : You call me afterward . Good luck .
Nikki : What s he up to ?
Jack : He s about to end Senator Bodi s career .
Nikki : Along with his own .
Victor : Two vultures with one stone .
Brad : Hello ? Oh , Ash , thank God . Is Abby with you ? Hold on . They re okay . Ash , please let me know if you re gon na be out of touch . Yeah , yeah , I d love to see them . Tell Abby to upload the pictures . Tell her I love her . Okay , bye . Abby had a fieldtrip and Ash chaperoned at the last minute .
Victoria : Oh .
Nikki : There , you see ? It was nothing .
Victor : This time .
Korbel : So I ve been thinking , Colleen .
Colleen : Thanks .
Korbel : All roads ... lead to Rome .
Colleen : Italian ?
Korbel : Nope . Latin .
Victoria : Latin . It s Latin .
Brad : It was the language of the church back then .
Nikki : Yeah , but you ran the words through the translation program .
Victoria : Encoded Latin . You see , if the box ever held a piece of the Mother Mary s veil , whoever wrote the inscription would nt have wanted it decoded easily .
Victor : Well , then I suggest we bring in a linguist and a cryptographer .
Brad : Victor , no .
Victoria : Acta est fabula , The play is over , applaud !
Nikki : That s what it says ?
Victoria : Yeah . Looks like all those years at a snooty boarding school are gon na pay off .
Korbel : Latin . Latin is the core of all romance languages .
Colleen : Veritas ?
Korbel : Veritas . Truth .
Colleen : Huh . So , it is written in Latin , with other letters in - between .
Korbel : Okay , wait , wait , wait ... Quid meaning What .
Colleen : What truth ?
Korbel : Unh - unh , unh - unh .
Colleen : Quid est veritas ?
Korbel : What is truth ?
Sheila : Hey !
Lauren : Hi !
Sheila : I m glad you could make it !
Lauren : Yeah , me , too . Ooh , the coffee smells so good !
Lauren : Oh , Summer !
Sheila : Oh , yes , it s a special blend-- chocolate and cinnamon .
Lauren : Mmm .
Sheila : Oh , look at Fen .
Lauren : Okay , here s your girlfriend , Fen . Feel free to drool .
Sheila : Oh , right . You can drool . Look at him .
Lauren : Yeah .
Sheila : Oh ...
Lauren : He s really getting bigger , huh ?
Sheila : Oh , you know , there s only one drooler in this house and it s my husband . And he s only allowed to drool on me .
Lauren : Oh , really ?
Sheila : Okay .
Lauren : They look so sweet .
Sheila : How about I pour the coffee ?
Lauren : Okay .
Sheila : Two sugars , right ?
Lauren : I m trying to cut down . How about one and a half ?
Sheila : All right .
Sheila : Do nt speak . Do nt move .
Sheila : Hey , do any one of you gals wanna help me with the coffee ?
Lauren : Ow !
Sheila : Oops !
Lauren : Do nt hurt the babies . I m begging you .
Sheila : I would never hurt babies . I love babies . But I did enjoy the I m begging you part . That was good . Remember when I begged you , Lauren ?
Lauren : What did you do to Paul ?
Sheila : Oh , Paul ! Yes ! There have been a change of tenants in Chez Sheila . Yes , there have . See , Paul is there with his ladylove Maggie Sullivan . That s actually what the I.D. said . That s what I think her name is . Anyway ... Let s check !
Paul : Just a sip . That s good .
Sheila : Yo , Paul ! Is she dead yet ? Hey , uh , Lauren and I were talking just now . And we were wondering if you really have the hots for Maggie Sullivan or she s just a distraction .
Paul : Lauren ?
Sheila : Yeah , Lauren ca nt talk right now . She s a little tied up . Plus , she has a gag in her mouth . It makes it a little difficult .
Paul : You do nt hurt her , Sheila .
Sheila : You should ve thought of that before you locked me in a cage , Paul .
Paul : Did you hear what I said ? You do nt hurt her .
Sullivan : Paul ... Paul , do nt listen .
Sheila : Oh , Maggie ? Hey ! Listen , word to the wise , before you get in too deep , you should know that Paul is not emotionally equipped for a relationship right now .
Paul : Listen , Sheila , do nt you underestimate me . I will get out of here . And when I do , I m gon na track you down and kill you .
Sheila : Really ? Oh , that s nice to know . Listen , Paul , if you re just trying to upset me right now , it s not gon na work . Because I am looking at ... two of the most adorable babies .
Paul : Hey , you do nt want them . You re angry at me , right ? Come and get me and leave them alone . You understand me ?
Sheila : I love it when you re so macho , Paul .
Sheila : Paul , just one second . I think Michael s calling for Lauren . Excuse me . Hey !
Michael : Hey , it s Michael .
Sheila : Hey , I thought it was you .
Michael : Uh ... Lauren s not picking up her phone . Has she gotten there yet ?
Sheila : Oh , no , she s not . Maybe she took Fen to the park .
Michael : Well , when she gets there , tell her that the painters called about the new colors in the nursery and she should call them back .
Sheila : Is she redecorating ?
Michael : Yeah , Lauren s got the bug . So give her the message ?
Sheila : I sure will as soon as I see her .
Sheila : Oh , Fen ... Fen ... I love you .
Jack : Thank you for agreeing to meet with me , Senator .
Carter : Well , after your partner accused me of corruption yesterday , I nearly did nt .
Jack : Nicholas is a bit of a hothead . I m afraid he s not the man his father is .
Carter : Pity .
Jack : I am hoping that saner , calmer , more respectful minds will prevail here . I think you and I can accommodate each other .
Carter : On the zoning ? Uh , it s already been decided .
Jack : Senator , please , please , just hear me out . We are about to dump more money into this one luxury spa than all of our others combined . Try to imagine this connected to luxury homes and condos .
Carter : Interesting .
Jack : We re talking about jobs here . Hundreds of them .
Carter : Mm - hmm . Construction jobs-- it s very attractive .
Jack : Imagine the tax base .
Carter : I am .
Jack : Senator , all of your hard - working constituents want three things-- jobs , jobs and jobs . Allow me to help you . You can be a hero here .
Carter : Ever thought about elected office ? You d be a formidable opponent . Uh , look , I ca nt help you , but give my regards to Victor Newman .
Jack : Uh , Senator , I m sure it s very hard for you to say no to us , given the kind of support Victor s given you in the past .
Carter : Yes , well--
Jack : I know campaigning is very expensive-- radio , TV , travel-- makes the mind spin .
Carter : I m very appreciative of my donors .
Jack : Tell me something , can you receive a campaign donation now to be saved for future races ?
Carter : You re a knowledgeable man , Jack .
Jack : I m sure you have ambitions , Senator . Congress ? Maybe beyond that ? Tell me something , what is the largest single contribution you ve received ? Official or otherwise ?
Carter : It s substantial .
Jack : I have no doubt .
Carter : Would you be willing to make one twice as substantial ? Officially or otherwise ?
Jack : Possibly .
Carter : I like what I m hearing .
Jack : Can I assume that means I can expect a favorable reconsideration from the zoning board ?
Carter : Done .
Jack : You ve made a wise move , Senator .
Carter : And not for the first time . Ah , Victor Newman has nt changed a bit .
Jack : Wrong pipe .
Scofield : We lost him .
Jack : Oh . So , Senator ... tell me about your arrangement with Victor Newman .
Victoria : I ve found Est three times and Qui once .
Victor : Not exactly the Magna Carta , is it ?
Brad : I do nt think we should discount anything at this point .
Victor : None of this would ve been our problem if you had nt dragged our family into it .
Brad : I did what any man would do to protect his mother , Victor .
Victor : By selfishly marrying again and again ? Without telling the women involved about the danger ? Their lives are now hanging in the balance because you re hiding behind them .
Brad : We found the reliquary together . Why are you turning on me now ?
Nikki : No , he s not . He s not . He s just upset .
Victoria : You know , we re all on the same side here . We are .
Victor : For all we know , Ashley and Abby could ve been dead by now . All because of this foolishness .
Colleen : What is truth ?
Korbel : Mm - hmm .
Colleen : I ve heard that before . Where s it from ?
Korbel : The bible .
Colleen : That s right .
Korbel : Gospel of John , to be exact . Pontius Pilate spoke those words to Jesus before he was crucified . Let s just clear this up .
Colleen : Okay , so if the first one connects to that famous Latin phrase , then the second one could , too ?
Korbel : Yep . In all likelihood .
Korbel : Kevin ?
Kevin : What did you do with Jana ?
Korbel : What are you talking about ?
Colleen : Ignore him .
Kevin : You know exactly what I m talking about . The last time she was seen , she was arguing with you at the coffeehouse .
Korbel : You got me , Kevin . Yeah , my , uh , my Americano was cold , so I flew into a rage . I whacked her with a sugar bowl , crammed her into some garbage bags and stuffed her in the trunk of my car .
Colleen : It s really inappropriate for you to come in here and make accusations like that .
Kevin : There are witnesses who saw you fighting with her .
Korbel : Yeah , she accused me of being a killer . That tends to make a person irritable .
Kevin : So -- so what ? You re saying this is just a coincidence ? That she disappeared right after she saw you ?
Colleen : Get a grip , Kevin . That s enough .
Kevin : You know what ? Tell it to the cops .
Colleen : Oh , yes , please , please , call the cops . I would love to tell them my theory . Let s see , Jana realized what a psycho you were , so she bought a 1-way ticket back to London . Or , even better , you burned her alive because you ve never really taken rejection too well . So , please , yes , call them . I would love to talk to them . Go ahead .
Kevin : This is nt over .
Sheila : Oh , girl ! Your clothes are fabulous ! I mean , my clothes are fabulous ! Oh ! One ringy - dingy . Two ringy - dingy .
Sheila : Pardon me , girls . Hello , Michael .
Michael : Lauren with you ? She s still not answering her cell phone .
Sheila : No . Wow , that must be some walk she s taking .
Michael : Just tell her to check in as soon as she gets in .
Sheila : Will do . And , Michael ? I m sure Lauren is fine . What a devoted husband you have . He s such a good man .
Paul : That s got ta be Michael . Listen , when I do nt answer , he s gon na come right over here , Maggie . He ll be here soon . You hang on . He ll be here soon .
Nikki : We agreed to see this through for Victoria s sake .
Brad : You know what ? We were fine until you hired a private investigator to dig around in our past .
Victor : You blame me now for the kidnappings and the constant threats , are you ?
Brad : You had your own son - in - law investigated .
Victor : Because there s a lot to be investigated !
Victoria : This is nt getting us anywhere .
Victor : I deal in facts . You married my daughter under false pretenses .
Brad : This would be a good time for you to leave .
Nikki : I think so , too . Come on , let s go .
Victor : You ve got 24 hours to deal with this .
Korbel : I take it that was nt your first encounter with him ?
Colleen : You do nt wanna know .
Korbel : Well , actually , I do . I can see how much he upset you .
Colleen : No , it s ancient history . I can take care of myself .
Korbel : Yeah , so I ve seen . But if you ever need me ... you know ...
Colleen : Um , you look like you were onto something before Kevin interrupted you . I see Est up there again .
Korbel : Yep . There it is--Est . And here it is again . You know , at the risk of sounding repetitive , this would be a lot easier if , uh , you told me the derivation of the puzzle .
Colleen : I already told you , I do nt know .
Korbel : Okay . Okay , Qui ... means Who .
Colleen : Who ... is what ? Vir ? Is that like Voire in French ?
Korbel : Not exactly . It , uh ... it changes its meaning depending on the context . It s man , husband , hero , person of courage . Who is the man ? It s been right in front of me this whole time .
Colleen : What ? What is it ?
Korbel : It s -- it s a famous Latin anagram . You take the words spoken by Pilate-- What is truth?-- Qui est veritas?-- And you take those same letters and you rearrange them and you -- and you come up with the answer . Est vir qui adest . The man who is before you .
Colleen : Wow , I mean , that s -- that s amazing . You re right .
Korbel : So you ready to do the touchdown dance ?
Colleen : No , not yet . I mean , look , so there s the answer . But the problem is , I have absolutely no idea what it means .
Paul : Help !
Michael : Paul ?
Paul : Help ! Michael !
Michael : Paul , what s going on ? ! Paul ? !
Paul : Maggie s been shot .
Michael : What the hell is she doing in there ? !
Paul : Maggie s been shot .
Michael : Where s Sheila ?
Paul : Sheila s got Lauren and Fen . We ve got ta hurry . Open up . Get us out of here .
Sheila : Okay , Gals ... it s time to move out . The question is ... which baby should I take ?
Sheila : Let s see ... by your applause , should we take baby Summer ? Or should we take baby Fen ? Ladies and Gentlemen , it s a tie ! I m taking them both .
Victor : Losing my temper with Brad Carlton ... will not happen again .
Nikki : Well , I understand why you did .
Victor : You re too generous . I broke my own rule . You never show your hand until you re ready to play it .
Victor : It s Jack Abbott . Do nt you worry , I wo nt make the same mistake with him , all right ? Jack , make my day .
Jack : I d be happy to . Our bottom - feeding Senator took the bait . It went better than I d hoped .
Victor : Well , is nt that wonderful news ?
Jack : All that s left is the actual transaction , which the Feds are going to record for posterity .
Victor : Well , I m very glad to hear all that , Jack . You have a nice day .
Nikki : He did well , I take it ?
Victor : Yeah . Very well .
Nikki : Even better for us .
Victor : Today is the beginning of the end of Jack Abbott . And tomorrow-- it ll be the beginning of the end of Brad Carlton .
Victoria : Another word-- veritas .
Brad : Truth .
Victoria : Truth . Veritas .
Colleen : Dad ? Dad !
Brad : Hey , Honey , what ?
Colleen : I got it !
Victoria : What are you talking about ?
Colleen : It s a famous anagram of words spoken in the New Testament , only in Latin .
Victoria : Latin . I knew it !
Colleen : Pontius Pilate asked , What is truth ? If you take the Latin letters of the phrase and rearrange them , then you get , Truth is the man who stands before you .
Victoria : I m impressed . I really am .
Brad : I raised a smart kid .
Colleen : Ah , I just got lucky .
Victoria : Words from the bible etched into an object of art . That s really intriguing .
Brad : Oh , maybe so , but we still do nt know what it really means .
Kevin : No , no , Officer , you do nt understand , okay ? Unless something terrible happened , she would ve called me .
Gloria : What ?
Kevin : Well , she s only been missing one night . Genoa City s finest wo nt file a missing persons report until she s gone 48 hours .
Gloria : Okay , okay , Honey , now we call Michael .
Kevin : Oh , yeah , that s -- that s a really good idea . What s he gon na do ? File some court order to make her call me ?
Gloria : It was a suggestion , Kevin .
Kevin : I m sorry . I did nt mean to snap . I just ... I know you re worried about her , Mom . I just ... I do nt know what I m gon na do without her .
Gloria : I know , honey , I know .
Kevin : Mom , please .
Nick : Hello ?
Nick : Lauren ? ! What the hell s going on ?
Lauren : Oh , Nick ! Nick , she has them ! You ve got ta get them !
Nick : Wait , wait , where is Phyllis and Summer ? !
Lauren : Phyllis and the babies-- you ve got ta get them !
Nick : Who has them ? Who has them ?
Lauren : Sheila Carter !
Sharon : I admire your loyalty .

### Dialogue:
John : Doc , I promise you , I will do everything I can to help Roman find Sami and bring her home , but right now , our number one priority is tracking down those boys who are out to rescue Philip .
Roman : Any idea where that might be , John ?
John : Well , I have pinpointed Philip s general location through a refined computer search . I was in the middle of putting together a small covert operation when Shawn and Rex hacked into my files .
Marlena : This is insanity .
Kate : John does have the I.S.A. tracking the plane that the boys flew out on .
John : Unfortunately , they have nt had any luck . They re probably flying under radar .
Marlena : John , you said that Belle and Mimi were at the airport with you trying to stop the plane from taking off . Belle must be worried sick .
John : She was .
Marlena : I wanna go to her -- tell her I m alive , tell her that I m here for her .
John : Okay . Let s go .
Marlena : You know where she is ? Why was nt she at the airport with you ?
Belle : It s bad enough that we could lose Philip . But now , because of you , there are four more lives in danger . My brother --
John : This is nt helping anything .
Kate : No , no , I should have said something . I should have told you what I knew .
John : No , stop . It s not your fault .
Belle : How can you defend her ?
John : We re all a little upset right now .
Belle : Because of her ! Dad , do nt you realize that none of this would be happening if she told us what she knew ? How could you stand there comforting her ? I hate her .
John : That s enough ! I wo nt have you talking about Kate like that .
Belle : Oh , my God . You two are nt together , are you ?
Kate : I can answer that . Mimi and Belle left the airport because they were angry with me because I knew what Shawn was doing , and I did nt warn them in time .
Belle : Dear God , we ve come here to pray for your help for our loved ones who are in danger . Please , please keep Philip , Shawn , Rex , Brady , and Lucas safe , and bring them all home to us soon .
Shawn - d : [ Groans ]
Rex : How s your arm ? Are you okay ?
Shawn - d : I told you , it s fine . Where the hell is Brady ? He should have been back by now .
Rex : You know where he is . He s out on reconnaissance , and he has to watch his every step cause thanks to you , the enemy knows we re here .

Tony : So , what s it gon na be , Samantha ? I m waiting for your answer . I trust you do want to see your parents again -- your loving mother and father , back from the dead .
Sami : All right . All right . I ll do it , Tony . I ll do it .
Tony : Heh heh heh . Excellent . With your help , my plan will go perfectly , and the good people of Salem wo nt know what hit them .
Sami : Sounds like you really need me .
Tony : Well , of course . You re invaluable , my dear . You know , I could nt have done this without you .
Sami : Well , then , in that case , I have a few demands of my own .
Bart : Uh - oh .
Billie : Oh , Bo .
Hope : Ca nt be .
Bo : [ Moaning ]
Billie : Yes . Oh , God . Bo .
Hope : Where are they ?
Patrick : Uh - huh . Some kind of trap door .
Billie : Bo . Yes . Yes .
Hope : No .
Bo : What s going on , Fancy Face ?
Hope : How could you do this ? !
Like sands through the hourglass , so are the Days of Our Lives .
Marlena : You knew what Shawn , Brady , and your sons were about to do , and you did not tell John in time to stop them ?
Kate : I knew that someone was hacking into John s computer , but I was assuming it was just to get information about Philip . I had no idea that they would take it upon themselves to go into the war zone .
Roman : Kate , you should have told John anyway . What were you thinking ?
Kate : I did tell him . I told him as soon as I knew what they were up to .
Roman : But by then it was too late .
John : All right , let s not blame Kate . She s been through enough . None of what is currently happening is her fault . Shawn was hell - bent on going through with this anyway . If he did nt go today , he would have gone tomorrow . And somehow -- do nt even ask -- he got the others to go along with him .
Marlena : Well , I think they re incredibly brave ... and incredibly stupid to put themselves in that kind of danger .
Kate : They re doing it for Philip .
John : And for Belle . She s been a wreck since Philip was captured .
Marlena : And now she has more than Philip to worry about . She s got the whole group of them to worry about . They all have to come back safely now .
John : Well , once we find their location , I ll call the I.S.A. We ll send in an extraction team and get em all home .
Kate : What if they ca nt be located ? What if they ve disappeared somewhere into the desert ? It was bad enough -- the possibility of losing one son , now there s a possibility that I m gon na lose all three of my boys .
Roman : Kate , that is not gon na happen , okay ? We will find them and bring them home -- Rex , Philip , Lucas , Shawn and Brady , too . We wo nt stop until we do .
John : That s a fact . I made you a promise . You know I ll keep it .
Kate : I know . I know you will .
Roman : Well , you know what , sweetheart ? Maybe we think -- we should think about leaving , let these two be alone .
Kate : Yes , of course . I ll just go pack a bag .
Roman : All right , I ll help you .
John : Maybe you should let me . I know how hard it was on you earlier when you saw Kate s clothes on my bed .
Kate : I wo nt be long .
Roman : It s not real easy on either one of us , is it , Doc ?
Marlena : No . And it s only going to get worse .
Roman : Well , that I do nt believe . Why would you say that ?
Marlena : Because we are trying to live a lie here .
Roman : I thought we had all this settled .
Marlena : I ca nt do it . I ca nt live a lie . We ve got to tell John and Kate that we made love , and we have to tell them tonight .
Hope : I do nt believe it . How could this -- this is nt real .
Patrick : Billie . Billie , are you and Bo okay ?
Billie : Patrick . Help . Get us out .
Patrick : Okay , I m gon na get you out . Just hold on . I need some help .
Billie : Bo , Bo , come on . Bo . We got ta get dressed .
Patrick : Hope , wait . Wait , do nt go .
Hope : Why should I ?
Patrick : I know this could nt have been easy for you .
Hope : Oh , you think ?
Patrick : It s not right .
Hope : That s one way of putting it .
Patrick : I think you were right all along . I think they walked into some kind of trap .
Hope : They were making the best of it , were nt they ?
Patrick : Obviously , they re in some kind of trouble . We have to get them out .
Hope : Are you kidding me ? They were just having sex like there was no tomorrow . Like hell I ll get them out of there . They can rot in hell for all I care .
Belle : God , I know I do nt deserve to be asking you for anything . I ve been a horrible person , but please do nt make them pay for my mistakes . If anything happens to them , I will never forgive myself .
Mimi : I ve done terrible things , too , God . But these boys -- these men -- are true heroes -- brave and selfless and good , and they do nt deserve to die or even be hurt in any way . So please do nt let them . I promise I will never ask for anything ever again if you ll just let them be all right .
Shawn - d : What do you mean it s because of me that the enemy knows we re here ?
Rex : We were in the clear . We managed to free those other hostages without getting caught , and they never would have known who did it if you had nt insisted on sticking around looking for Philip .
Shawn - d : Oh , I m sorry , but I thought rescuing Philip was the reason we came here .
Rex : Shawn , it was clear that Philip was nt there . If you would just stop and think , or listen to what we have to say , then you would know that . But , no , you insist on storming off , dragging Brady with you -- revealing yourself to the enemy . What if you both had been shot ?
Shawn - d : Look , we were nt .
Rex : But you could have been , very easily . Shawn , if you do nt start using your head , you re gon na blow this whole mission -- not to mention put us in more danger than we re already in .
Shawn - d : I just wanna do what we came over here for . I wanna rescue Philip and get the hell out .
Lucas : You both knock it off , all right ? What , are you nuts ? Stop fighting . We got ta stick together . Listen to me , I know you do nt wanna believe that Philip was nt in that bunker . I do nt wanna believe it either . But Rex is right , man , you got ta think before you act , or next time you get shot at , you re not gon na be so lucky . The rebels know we re here . So as we speak , they re probably sending out patrol units to find us . And if they find us , they re not gon na take us prisoner . You can bet on it , all right ? They re gon na shoot to kill .
Sami : So , Tony , did you hear me ?
Tony : Yes , I heard you . But you re hardly in a position to be making demands .
Sami : Are you in a position to refuse me ?
Bart : She s got a point .
Tony : Could you excuse me for a moment , please ? Damn it , what an idiot I am . I should nt have let her know how indispensable she is to my plans .
Bart : You kinda blew it there , sir . You -- you did . Um , I mean , you know , Sami Brady is always gon na work every angle every chance she gets .
Tony : Look how manipulative she can be on her own , even without my help .
Bart : I tell you one thing , the girl s got guts . I mean , it was nt but 10 minutes ago she had a gun to her head . And now , all of a sudden , she thinks she s calling the shots .
Tony : Yes , well , we ll see about that .
Bart : What are you gon na do , boss , put her in her place ?
Tony : No , there s always an option . But first , why do nt we find out exactly what it is she wants ? Well , hello , Sami . I m back . I m listening . So , what exactly are your demands ?
Sami : Well , first of all , I want a guarantee that Philip and I wo nt be harmed .
Tony : Oh , well , you certainly wo nt be . And do nt worry about Philip . He s just a pawn in my game . I m just using him to lure his fellow rescuers . So do nt think twice about him . He s expendable .
Sami : My terms are non - negotiable , Tony . So I wanna make sure Philip is nt hurt . Otherwise , whatever your sick goal is , you re gon na have to accomplish it without me . Do we have a deal , or do nt we ?
John : You forgot this .
Kate : Thanks . Would nt be good for Marlena to find my things in the bathroom , would it ? Or my clothes in the closet or in the dresser . My book on the nightstand .
Kate : My God , this is incredibly awkward . It s kind of surreal , is nt it ? I know , you listen to me -- my husband and your wife just ... came back from the dead , and I m complaining about the timing .
John : It s because as miraculous as it is to have them back , it is surreal . It s like a dream , because it leaves us in a very complicated situation . That s why I offered to help you pack . I - I wanted to be able to talk to you alone about the time that we shared together ... just what you mean to me .
Roman : Doc ... we have been over this and over this , and I think telling John and Kate that we were intimate ...
Marlena : [ Gasps ]
Roman : Back at the castle would be a huge mistake .
Marlena : Since when is telling the truth a mistake ?
Roman : When there are incredibly complicated extenuating circumstances . When truth would do more harm than good , and believe me , in this case , it would . Look , it s bad enough that we know your husband and my wife were together . Look what it did to us . Look what it s still doing to us . We are reading hidden meanings into everything they say and do .
Marlena : I am trying not to do that .
Roman : I know , but you ca nt help yourself any more than I can .
Marlena : No , I - I ca nt .
Roman : And what did you just think when John offered to ... help Kate pack ?
Marlena : Nothing .
Roman : Doc .
Marlena : All right , fine . Just for the briefest moment , I - I wondered why he so obviously wanted to be alone with her . And I ... I wondered what he wanted to say to her he did nt want me to hear .
Roman : There you go . And that is because we know what we know about them .
Marlena : I still think we have to tell them that we made love .
Billie : Aah .
Bo : [ Coughs ]
Billie : I could have sworn I heard Patrick and Hope . Now they re gone .
Bo : [ Coughs ]
Bo : What are you talking about , Fancy Face ? You re right here with me .
Billie : I --
Patrick : Hope , you ca nt really mean that . You ca nt really want to leave Bo and Billie in that pit .
Hope : I do nt think they ll mind very much .
Patrick : Look , they obviously did nt get in that pit by themselves . It s some kind of trap .
Hope : The only trap Bo walked into is the one Billie set for him . She wanted him , she got him , and you know what ? As far as I m concerned , she can have him . I m outta here .
Lucas : All right , both of you just calm down and try to relax , okay ? We do nt even know where Philip s being held right now . We got to give Brady a chance to find someone to gather some solid Intel , and then we can mount a second strike , but until then , let s stick together , all right ? We re a team . Stop jumping down each other s throats . Look , I know we re all on edge , but let s not forget why we re here . We re here for Philip , to bring him home to his friends and his family and his loved ones .
Rex : I want that more than anything .
Shawn - d : So do I.
Belle : And one more thing -- please bless my mother up in heaven . I pray that she s looking out for them and that they get home safely . Amen .
Mimi : Amen . Do you think God will answer our prayers ?
Belle : He has to .
Sami : Well , Tony , answer me . Do we have a deal or not ?
Tony : Would you excuse me for a moment ?
Sami : What , again ?
Tony : I m a very busy man . What is it ?
Bart : Do nt trust her . She is definitely up to something .
Tony : No kidding . That s what she does best , but as wily as she may be , she s not going to get the best of me . I m a DiMera , after all .
Bart : And a damn fine one , sir .
Tony : Look --
Bart : Listen , listen , I know that you re a damn fine one .
Tony : Listen , listen , just let me handle it .
Bart : I never meant to imply anything else . I only meant to caution you .
Tony : Bart . Bart .
Bart : Yes , sir .
Tony : Shut up .
Bart : Yes , sir .
Tony : Samantha ... tell me something -- I did nt know you were so concerned with the welfare of Philip Kirakis . I did nt realize you were so fond of the lad .
Sami : It s not like he s one of my favorite people or anything , but he s never done anything to hurt me , unlike half of Salem , and he is married to my sister . Of course , Belle plans on dumping him as soon as he gets back .
Tony : Would you please get to the point ?
Sami : Well , the point is Philip is a soldier , okay ? He s a United States Marine , and he thinks he s risking his life for his country . It is wrong on so many levels for you to be using him in this stupid plot , okay ? He s a hero , and he should be treated like one .
Tony : Oh , my . Are nt we noble all of a sudden ? Or is it patriotic ?
Sami : Take your pick . It s just how I feel .
Tony : And this from the woman who despises his mother with every fiber of her being . Am I not mistaken , but did nt you swear vengeance on this woman for all the wrong she s done to you ?
Sami : Look , I do hate Kate , okay ? But that has nothing to do with Philip . He s innocent in all this , and he should be kept out of it , period . Do I make myself clear ?
Bart : [ Whispering ] Boss , now is the time -- excellent time -- to drop the bomb , so to speak .
Tony : [ Whispering ] That s a good idea . Uh , by the way , Samantha ... are you aware that Kate was the one who set you up , that she arranged for Lucas to discover you in that ever - so - compromising position with your ex on the eve of your wedding ?
Sami : Of course I know that it was Kate . I just do nt have any way to prove it .
Tony : Ah . I do . I know it for a fact .
Sami : You know ? How could you possibly know ?
Tony : Ha ha ha . When are you going to learn -- Count DiMera knows all .
Sami : Wait a second . You said you have a way to prove it , to prove that Kate set me up the way that I ve been saying all along ?
Tony : And she did it so brilliantly , I might add . As a matter of fact , I would nt mind that kind of mind in my own organization .
Sami : Oh , my God . This is incredible . If it s true , and if -- if I could get that proof , then --
Tony : Yeah . It is true , and you will if you cooperate . You do exactly as I tell you , and I promise you , you will have the proof you need to destroy Kate Roberts life forever .
Kate : I do nt know what there is to say . We shared something very unique and very wonderful ... and now it s over . And now we have to go back to what we had . [ Sighs ] Oh , God .
John : You really think it s going to be that simple ? Kate , we fell in love , maybe not the same way that --
Kate : I know , I know , I know , I know , I know . And I know it s very real , and I know we shared something special that we never expected to find , and we found it out of -- out of grief , and we found it out of loneliness and out of ... a desperate need to fill a void .
John : Yeah , maybe that s the way it started , but it went much deeper than that , did nt it ? During the darkest days of my life , you were right by my side . I came off that island a broken man physically . You knew that . And mentally after what I had lost , and you know about loss . I did nt even want to go on anymore . Hell , I would nt have if I did nt escape into those drugs . Could nt get through a damn day without a fix . Kind of looked forward to it , really , even though I knew it was killing me . And it would have ... if you had nt been there to save my life .
Kate : [ Sighs ]
John : And now ... I will never really ... be able to thank you for everything that you ve done for me .
Kate : Well , that works both ways . You made me want to live again , and you made me ... you made me feel in a way I have nt felt for a long , long time .
John : Yeah ? And what way was that , hmm ?
Kate : Needed ... and loved ... for a part of me that ... sometimes I forget even exists . Everyone thinks that , uh ... I m such a cold - hearted , uncaring woman . You know , Sami hates me . Hope blames me . Belle s angry at me . I believe they think I m just some kind of a monster .
John : They re wrong . Because that part of you that you spoke of , they do nt know it like I do . You re an incredibly loving woman who is passionate about the happiness and well - being of her children , and you put them above everything else . Besides Marlena , I have never met a more selfless , decent woman in my life . That s just one of the reasons I fell in love with you . I do love you , Kate , and I m not even going to try to fool myself . I know ... a part of me always will .
Kate : I love you . And a part of me always will .
Kate : I think if it was nt for Roman , I think I would be very jealous of Marlena .
John : You know , I was thinking just that just the other way around . I ll never forget the time that we shared .
John : Goodbye .
Kate : How can this be one of the happiest days of my life ... and the saddest day of my life ?
Patrick : Hope , wait . You ca nt just walk out . Bo and Billie are in trouble . They need our help .
Hope : Believe me , Bo s a lot safer where he is , because when I get my hands on him --
Patrick : Hope , stop it . Listen to me -- there is some kind of explanation .
Hope : What explanation ?
Patrick : I do nt know , but for God s sakes , think about what you re doing . If you walk out of this door , you could regret it for the rest of your life .
Billie : Patrick . Patrick . Are you really there ? Help . We need help . Get us out of here .
Patrick : Billie . Billie , hold on . I m here . I m going to get you out of there .
Billie : [ Coughs ] Hurry . Bo s unconscious .
Hope : Oh , my God .
Patrick : What s wrong with him ? What -- what happened ?
Billie : He passed out . [ Coughs ] And ... I do nt feel so good myself .
Patrick : Billie !
Hope : Bo ? Bo , can you hear me ? ! Bo ?
Mimi : So what do we do now ?
Belle : I do nt think there s anything else we can do . Just go home and wait , I guess , try to get some sleep .
Mimi : I ca nt sleep until I know Rex is okay , that they re all okay .
Belle : That might not happen for a long time , Mimi .
Mimi : You know , I thought Rex finding out what I had done would be the worst thing that could ever happen to me , but I was wrong . I am so scared , Belle . I am scared to death that I wo nt ever see him or -- or any of them ever again .
Rex : Shawn , look , I m -- I m sorry I jumped down your throat , okay ? I guess I just do nt want any of us to get hurt , that s all . After you got shot , it -- it just made me realize that this is the real deal . I mean , we re in the middle of a war zone , man , with fighting going on all around us . Anything could happen to any of us at any time .
Shawn - d : You do nt have to apologize , man . I know what you mean . When that guy aimed at me and fired -- I ve never been so scared in my life .
Lucas : That was a little too close .
Shawn - d : Yeah . You know what I m sorry for is all those times that I was making fun of Philip , calling him those names , mocking him every chance that I got .
Rex : Oh , Shawn , do nt worry about it , man . It was the situation . You , him , Belle -- things were tense .
Shawn - d : It does nt matter . That s no excuse , because what these guys are doing over here is beyond brave , and I do nt know how they do it every day , putting their lives at risk .
Lucas : It s not just the Marines , it s all the armed forces and the support staffs behind them . All the chopper pilots , the evac crews , the medics , the nurses , clerks , everybody -- they left their families and their loved ones just to serve their country .
Rex : That s a hell of a sacrifice . Everything they do to protect our freedom .
Lucas : Yeah , think about it . Some of them make the ultimate sacrifice -- they do nt even make it home .
Shawn - d : Listen , we have to make sure that we make it home , and I promise you guys , from now on , I am going to play it a lot smarter . Philip is counting on us ... and so are a lot of other people .
Sami : All right , Tony , what do I have to do to get this proof and to see my parents again ?
Tony : Well , first of all , you ll help me destroy Philip and his intrepid band of rescuers .
Sami : Look , I still do nt see why Philip has to be hurt .
Tony : But do nt you see ? What a better way of getting at Kate than taking away that which she holds most precious -- not one , but two of her sons ... just the same way she took Lucas and your son away from you .
Sami : [ Sighs ] You re right . Damn you , Kate . You did nt care at all when you ruined my life . You took away everything that I loved . You did nt have a twinge of conscience about it , and I wo nt , either . I m going to make you pay .
Tony : I thought you d see it my way . Now her big , brave Marine ... and the saving private Philip brigade are all as good as dead .
Sami : [ Sighs ] I m sorry , Philip . If there s one person who does nt deserve it , it s you .
Mimi : I m sorry . I know you do nt need this right now . You re worried , too , and the last thing you need is me being negative . I m just scared . I have this really awful feeling that they re in terrible danger this very minute .
Belle : I know . I feel it , too . So you know what ? We re going to keep praying . We re going to pray no matter how long it takes until they come home .
Rex : You got it ?
Shawn - d : Brady s been gone for far too long . I m starting to get worried . What if he got captured ?
Rex : What the hell is that ?
Lucas : Oh , man , we got trouble .
Shawn - d : What -- what is it ?
Lucas : Armored transport coming right for us .
Sami : This ca nt be happening . I ca nt die .
Philip : Who are you ? [ Coughs ] Look , man ... we have to work together or it s all over , okay ?
Sami : Philip did nt even know who I was , and he wanted to help me .
Tony : What s that you said , Samantha ?
Sami : I ca nt do it .
Tony : What do you mean ? We just agreed .
Sami : Yeah , well , I changed my mind . I do nt care what proof you have against Kate . I m not going to do anything to help you with your sleazy plans unless you do something to help Philip .
Tony : Are you sure about this ?
Sami : I m positive .
Tony : Fine . Then our deal is off .
Bart : This is not good , sir . What are you going to do now ?
Tony : I think I made a mistake in arranging for Samantha to come here . But I do nt think it s too late to undo that mistake .
Bart : Undo meaning ...
Tony : Precisely .
Sami : Oh , well , it s about time . I guess Tony finally sees things my way . You re here to help Philip ?
Man : Not exactly .
Marlena : Oh , Roman , I m so confused . I do nt know what to do .
Roman : Doc , I told you what we should do . We forget it ever happened . John and Kate do not need to know what went on with us back in that castle . It s over and behind us . We re home now . And you love your husband , and I love my wife , and we re going to be with them forever . That s all that matters . Telling them the truth would only hurt them and ... serve no good purpose whatsoever . Doc , listen to me . You and I are the only ones that know this other than Tony , and he s dead . There s no way our secret is going to come out . The only thing we should tell John and Kate -- the only thing they need to hear is how damn thrilled we are to be back home and back in their arms again and that we love them very , very much and ca nt wait to get on with our lives together .
Marlena : Oh .
Kate : Well ... I m ready to go . I , um , I have what ... I need for tonight . Uh , I ve , um , I ve packed the rest . I ll -- I ll , um , uh , send someone in a couple of days to pick it up .
Marlena : That s -- that s fine . That s fine .
John : You all right ?
Marlena : I m --
Marlena : I m -- I m just so glad to be home .
John : I m happy that you are home . You sure that s all it is ? Looks like there s something wrong .
Marlena : I ve got to tell you something .
Hope : Bo ! Bo , answer me ! Patrick , what s wrong with them ?
Patrick : I do nt know , but they re both unconscious . Oh , my God . I smell gas .
Hope : Gas ?
Patrick : Yeah , I do nt know . It s being pumped into the pit .
Hope : They could die . We ve got to do something . We ve got to get them out of there .
Patrick : I just hope we re not too late .
Hope : God , please , please do nt let them die . Please , God . Bo ? ! Bo , can you hear me ? !
Lucas : Wherever she is , whatever she s doing , she s probably making a list of all the people who hurt her , trying to figure out how to get revenge .
Sami : What do I need that for ?
Marlena : Oh , I m so glad that we get to be alone .
Hope : You knew that he thought it was me . You knew , and you did nothing to stop it !

Man : The Skyline Suite , and four additional rooms .
Guard : Six additional rooms .
Man : Well , I m afraid that s not what I have in my book .
Kendall : Then you re reading the wrong book , Curly .
Man : Uh -- I can show you -- right --
Kendall : Nah , I do nt need to see nothin . I made the reservation personally -- Mr. and Mrs. Sonny Suarez and entourage . I want the best room in the Rancho Rodeo , ASAP , plus two adjoining rooms , two on each side -- that s what I said .
Man : I do nt know where the mix - up occurred , maam .
Kendall : You calling me a liar ?
Man : Uh -- of course not .
Kendall : Ok . Then I suggest you get this straightened out before my husband shows up . Now , the boys here -- they re being very generous , but Sonny does nt have patience for things like this . Come to think of it , Sonny does nt have patience for much of anything .
Zach : Now , I m confused . How come we re not in our rooms right now ?
Kendall : Well , this genius here screwed things up , Sonny .
Man : What ? No , no .
Kendall : You listen to me . I said six rooms , plus an extra suite . You only gave us four .

Zach : And I ca nt let that go . I m going to have to complain .
Kendall : Uh -- Sonny , do nt do it . I m tell you , this clown is not worth it
Zach : Maybe you re right . Let the boys do it .

Josh : You think I m holding out on you ?
Babe : I just -- I do nt remember this room .
Josh : Well , you were completely out of it when you first came to , Babe . It s no big surprise that your memory s a little hazy . You even went off on poor Wendy , thought she was the killer .
Babe : I guess I was out of it . Ok . My bodyguard Max is -- Max is --
Josh : No , he -- he s fine .
Babe : He s ok ?
Josh : Yeah , he s going to be fine . Listen , Babe --

Babe : Because of me ?

Babe : J.R. can go to hell . Oh , my God , Josh , please . Please , you have to help me . You have to help me . I have to stop him , please . Oh , my God . Please .
J.R. : I told you I was nt going to tell your secret --
Krystal : Oh .
J.R. : And I meant it .
Krystal : What a joke , and your word is supposed to mean something ?
J.R. : Look , I do nt want to hurt anyone , especially my father .
Krystal : Until when ? You cut yourself shaving ? Weatherman predicts rain , you wake up on the wrong side of the bed ? What s it going to take for you to go off this time , J.R. ?
J.R. : How can I convince you ?
Krystal : Babe s death and your mother s just pushed you to the ragged edge . You throw in a fifth of scotch , I do nt think you can balance on that edge , J.R.
J.R. : I swear I was nt going to take a drink of it .
Krystal : Oh , this time . But what happens when you ca nt fight the urge ? How much of a hold are you going to have on that spiteful tongue of yours then ?
J.R. : I promise you on my life I was nt going to drink it .
Krystal : You promised to cherish and love Babe . You promised you would make it up to her for the rest of your life when she decided to keep your sorry ass out of prison . You promised you would nt fight for custody of Little A if you two should ever get divorced again , so you can shove your promises .
J.R. : You have every reason to hate me .
Krystal : And you do nt even need a reason to shatter my world , so stop holding back , J.R. , because I will not have you dangling my fate with your filthy hands .
J.R. : I m not going to tell my father . He needs you .
Krystal : You know , if I thought you gave two squats about anybody s needs but your own , then I might be convinced .
J.R. : You re right , I m selfish , but I m still not going to tell , because I need you as much as my father . Maybe even more .
Jeff : All right , what do we got here ?
Bianca : This is my friend Zoe . She was beaten . We just found her at the cemetery .
EMT : Some LOC , but his vitals are stable , and his pupils are reactive . He s got multiple abrasions to his face . Somebody really did a number on this guy -- or girl .
Julia : Zoe ? It s Julia Keefer -- can you hear me ? What happened ?
Zoe : I was jumped last night .
Bianca : Last night ?
Julia : You ve been like this since last night ?
Jeff : All right , let s get her -- her into the cubicle .
Bianca : Ok . Zoe , I ll be right here , ok ? I m not -- I m not going anywhere . Oh . Oh , excuse me . Can I use your phone ? Yes , I need to report a crime .
Kendall : You -- mmm , mmm . You were so hot . You were .
Zach : Yeah ?
Kendall : Yeah .
Zach : Unfortunately , we did nt come here to have fun .
Kendall : I know . But it is so much more fun being Carla Suarez than Kendall Hart Slater these days . I mean , I ca nt remember the last time I felt this free .
Zach : Free ?
Kendall : Yeah .
Zach : Oh . Got to sneak out of Pine Valley , private plane , private -- private cars to here , ca nt stay in our own casino , the only person that knows we re here is Jack . And you feel free -- that s great .
Kendall : Well , I mean , I do nt have to look over my shoulder and -- and feel like someone s stalking me . We re the ones doing the stalking , Zach .
Zach : Yeah .
Kendall : This is great . I mean , I ca nt remember the last time I felt this in control .
Zach : It s a long time .
Kendall : Well , I do nt know why we re here , but I m glad we are . You ca nt relax , can you ?
Zach : No . There are answers here somewhere , I do nt know . Looking for answers in something I do nt even know what the question is .
Bianca : Hey . Zoe , I m right here . How is she ?
Jeff : Well , it s too early to tell . We re going to take her down to X - ray now .
Bianca : Ok .
Zoe : Bianca ? Bianca , I need -- I --
Jeff : No , wait . Let s just hold off on the talking until we get you checked out .
Julia : Bianca will be here when you get back .
Bianca : Yeah , of course . I m not going anywhere . Oh . Oh , my God . How could somebody do this to Zoe , of all people ? She has such a -- a beautiful soul .
Julia : I do nt think whoever did this was provoked by her peaceful disposition . I hate to even go there , but she was wearing a dress .
Bianca : Oh , God , tell me that was nt it .
Julia : Transgender people are four times more likely than gays or lesbians to be the victim of hate crimes .
Bianca : Oh , my God , that s sick !
Julia : There are twisted people out there .
Derek : Can either of you tell me where to find Zarf ?
Bianca : Um -- you mean Zoe ?
Derek : Where is he ?
Bianca : She .
Julia : She s in X - ray . She s not up to being questioned right now .
Derek : Who found the victim ?
Bianca : I did , less than an hour ago at the cemetery , but we just found out that she had been laying there all night beaten up .
Derek : Did Zoe see who did this ?
Bianca : I m not sure .
Derek : Were there words exchanged ?
Bianca : I -- I -- she did nt say anything about that .
Derek : Well , I put in a call to your Uncle Jack . He s going to come down and question Zoe himself .
Bianca : Good , good . Hate crimes should receive top priority .
Derek : Hate crimes ?
Julia : Zoe was dressed as a woman at the time of the attack .
Bianca : What ? You seem like you re disappointed .
Derek : Well , when I heard Zoe was found near Babe Chandler s grave , naturally I thought it had something to do with the Satin Slayer .
Julia : Wait -- so if it turns out that Zoe was battered just because she was wearing a dress , it s not worth your attention ?
Derek : Not mine personally , not while there s a serial killer on the loose .
Bianca : Am I really hearing this from the chief of police ?
Derek : That s right , Bianca . I am the chief of police , but I am also a man whose daughter was nearly killed by a murderer who forced you to take him with you wherever you go , the same murderer who wants your sister , Kendall , dead . Now , my primary focus is to catch this maniac and put him away , not some random beating .
Bianca : Some random beating ? Derek , how can you possibly be so blasé about this ? I -- I mean , you must know what it feels like to be targeted because of who you are ? Your nephew , Terrence , was viciously attacked because of the color of his skin . Why are you not jumping at the chance to fight this kind of discrimination ?
Derek : I will always fight against discrimination , but I was born black . My ancestors were born black . Zoe chose to put on a dress and flaunt her sexual issues to the world .
Bianca : I did not choose to be gay any more than you chose to be black any more than Zoe chose to be transgender .
Derek : Well , in both cases , you can choose not to show everybody .
Bianca : Oh , I see . So you re saying that Zoe should pass as a big , butch guy , and I should pass as straight , and the law should nt be expected to protect people from going out into the world as themselves ?
Derek : No , of course not .
Bianca : Zoe has been hiding who she is for her whole life . She s finally starting to embrace it . Yes , yes , she was wearing a dress last night , because that s what feels right to her .
Derek : Well , your rock star friend should ve known that putting on a dress and strolling through a cemetery late at night was going to make --
Bianca : Was going to what -- provoke a beating ?
Derek : No -- make her a target .
Bianca : Are you saying she asked for it ? Did I ask to be raped ?
Derek : I will look into Zoe s attack . But the number one thing on my to - do list is catching the man who wants your sister dead .
Babe : Please --
Josh : Babe , listen to me . Listen to me . You need to relax , all right ?
Babe : Josh , please , I have --
Josh : You re much too weak .
Babe : To stop him , please --
Josh : No , no -- you need to stay in this bed and get better .
Babe : You do nt understand what he will do .
Josh : I do understand , I do .
Babe : No .
Josh : He s holding something over your head , is nt he ?
Babe : Please .
Josh : Something that could force you to have to give up your son . I know -- Zoe told me .
Babe : You --
Josh : What is it ? Tell me , and I ll make sure he can never use it against you .
Babe : It s -- it s Mama . Josh , he can ruin her life .
Josh : No , no , listen to me .
Babe : Yes , yes .
Josh : He s not going to do anything . I talked to him myself . He told me to tell you he s -- he s putting everything on hold .
Babe : Wait , he told that ? Josh , you believe him ? Well , no , you do nt -- you do nt get it . He -- he can take everything away from her . Mama
Josh : No . Your mom is fine .
Babe : No , no . If she was fine , she d be here with me . She d be right here --
Josh : She was -- she was here this morning sitting right there in that chair while you were sleeping . She was holding your hand .
Krystal : Always working an angle , are nt you , J.R. ?
J.R. : It s no angle , Krystal . I do need you . I was just upstairs watching Little Adam sleep , and I was trying to figure out which of his features are Babe s , and then I tried to picture her face . If I could only see her lips one more time , I d make a point of trying to memorize them . If I could see her fingers -- you do nt even know how much I miss holding those hands . And those eyes ?
Krystal : They were gorgeous .
J.R. : She has your eyes . I did nt realize it till this morning when I saw you sitting over there . But you have Babe s eyes . And I need to look into those every single day , because you and Little Adam are the only connection that I have of Babe . And just promise me that you ll never stop talking about her . I do nt care if it s a story from when she was little , or if it were something that happened last week . Please share it with me , over and over again . I want your memories to become my memories . I want Little Adam to memorize them by heart . See , do nt you see , Krystal ? If I tell your secret , you ll have to leave , and it ll be like losing Babe all over again . Charlotte is going to be my little sister , and it does nt matter who the father is . I m going to love her , and I do nt want to hurt her , and I do nt want to hurt her mother . I realize I m a selfish Jackass , but family is everything to me . And Little Adam owns my heart .
Krystal : He owned Babe s , too .
J.R. : I know that she said she d want you to raise him if anything ever happened to her . And you did such a fantastic job raising Babe . I want you to help raise Little Adam for the rest of his life . I mean , if you want to make it legal , I wo nt even object to it . I want you to help me be the best dad that I can be .
Krystal : You re making it easy to see why Babe loved you so much . Oh , why -- why could nt you have turned back into this man for her before she died ?
Zach : You ready ?
Kendall : Yep .
Zach : Let s do this .
Kendall : Ok . Excuse me . I m looking for Miss Johnson .
Woman : That s me .
Kendall : Hi . I m Carla Suarez . This is my husband , Sonny .
Zach : How you doing ?
Miss Johnson : Mrs. Suarez , I was so surprised when you called . I had nt heard the name Alexander Cambias , Sr . , in some time , but the minute you mentioned him , the memories came flooding back . Your grandfather knew how to make an impression .
Kendall : Unfortunately , I ve never met him . That s actually why I came here -- to find out more about him . I was hoping that you could tell me a little bit about what he was like in the days before he died .
Miss Johnson : I d be happy to . I took care of Mr. Cambias personally during his final hospital stay , and I even was a witness to his will .
Kendall : Well , then , you re definitely the right person to talk to .
Miss Johnson : But there is someone else you may want to get in touch with . Are you familiar with a man by the name of Ryan Lavery ?
Kendall : Yes , I am , actually . Ryan was very helpful . Still , I ca nt shake the feeling that there are answers for me here . I did nt even know there was an Alexander Cambias , Sr . , until long after he died . My mother raised me alone , so she did nt really talk about my father s side of the family , so you can imagine how blown away I was when I get this random phone call from this Ryan Lavery , and he tells me that I ve inherited a fortune . It s only because of his honesty and persistence that I am now sitting here a very wealthy woman .
Miss Johnson : Mr. Lavery was always a good man and a tremendous help to your grandfather in his last days .
Zach s voice : Josh ? Just listen to me . We can keep Babe alive . But the first thing we have to do is let her die .
Kendall : Most people describe my grandfather as dramatic and -- and intense . Is that how you remember him ? Or -- or being so close to death , did he let his guard down at all ?
Miss Johnson : No , never . Mr. Cambias was all those things you said about him , but I would add stubborn to the list and spoiled , but not in a bad way . Let s just say he was a man accustomed to getting what he wanted .
Zach : With your connections in here and my connections out there , the only thing we need to do is get her out of the hospital . No one s ever going to know that she s alive .
Kendall : Ryan told me my grandfather left him a pocket watch with an inscription to my son .
Miss Johnson : Mr. Cambias could be very thoughtful .
Kendall : Did he leave any other personal belongings , maybe something he donated to the hospital or to you ?
Miss Johnson : No . Mr. Lavery was the only one awarded that privilege .
Josh s voice : We can do this , Jeff . We can make everyone believe that Babe is dead , but we need your help .
Jeff : You re asking me to do the impossible , here in the hospital with doctors , nurses , interns where someone is bound to find out .
Zach : Not if we do it right . People listen to you . Declare Babe dead , put a sheet over her , run her down to the morgue . My men will take it from there .
Josh : She s stable . The pentobarbital you gave her slowed her heartbeat down long enough for a casual observer to think she was dead . Unless someone put a stethoscope onto her chest , no one s going to know she s still alive .
Kendall : Did my grandfather leave behind any other documents other than his will ?
Miss Johnson : I do nt know , but I m sure Mr. Lavery could tell you .
Joe : In all my years of practice , I ve never been asked to do something like this .
Josh : Please , Joe . Please sign that phony death certificate . I swear I will never ask anything again . I m -- pulling the grandson card , I m pulling every card I have . Please just do it for Babe . I love her . Help me save her .
Kendall : Did Alexander , Sr . , ever talk about his family ?
Jack : I wish there were a way to do this without making Babe s family suffer .
Zach : That s impossible . Everyone has to believe that this is real , everyone -- her family , her friends , ok . That s where the official autopsy report comes in . That s where we need you .
Kendall : Thank you so much for your time .
Zach : Thank you .
Miss Johnson : I only wish I could ve been more help .
Kendall : You and me both .
Zach : Tell Drummond to bring the car .
Kendall : Where are we going ?
Zach : Tell him to hurry up .
Josh : Zach is not going to let anything happen to Kendall . Trust me -- she s very well - protected .
Babe : I m glad .
Josh : Me , too .
Babe : Is there a -- is there a phone in here ? I want to call Mama .
Josh : No . Babe , listen to me -- you need to be resting .
Babe : Hmm . But , Josh , I want to see my mama .
Josh : I ll tell you what . As soon as Wendy gets back in here , I ll go out there , and I ll call her myself .
Babe : Will you tell her I want to see her ?
Josh : I will . But if she comes back in here while you re sleeping , we re not going to wake you .
Babe : No , Josh , please .
Josh : Babe , listen to me -- you almost died . For a minute , I thought you did . Please just trust me . Let me take care of you . Let me do what I need to do .
J.R. : I hate that the last things that I said to Babe were so vicious . I wish I could have told her everything that I told you just now -- how much I loved her , how much of a great mother that I thought she was . Instead , I threatened her and gave her insults . I made her last days on this earth so miserable , and my God , I would do anything , I would give my life to take that back .
Krystal : Babe always forgave you , J.R. Even when you did the unforgivable , she found it in her heart to let it go . I m willing to bet wherever she is right now , she s forgiven you again .
J.R. : Hmm . Did I ever tell you about the time Babe and I drove all over Pine Valley one night to try to find her these chewy , strawberry candies ?
Krystal : No . Hmm . She loved those when she was little .
J.R. : Well , I got news for you -- she still does -- did . Well , anyway , she was pregnant with Little A , and she had this craving like you would nt believe and I swear we must ve driven to , like , 30 different convenience stores to try to find these strawberry things .
Krystal : Any luck ?
J.R. : No . But at this one store , this nasty lady behind the counter just let loose on Babe , saying how could a pregnant woman be out at all hours trying to pollute her system with this stuff ?
Krystal : Oh --
J.R. : I know , but it even got nastier from there . I mean , it must ve been 10 : 30 at night . There was , like , no way a bag of candy could ve hurt her . But I was about ready to go off on her . But Babe stopped me , and she walked to the back , she bought a fresh banana , and we walked out . She said she would nt let me go there , because this lady was working the night shift on Saturday and probably had problems of her own .
Krystal : Babe saw all sides .
J.R. : Do you think this time she d forgive me ?
Krystal : I do .
J.R. : Do you forgive me ?
Bianca : Oh . How is she ?
Jeff : Very lucky -- a slight concussion and some bruised ribs .
Zoe : It hurts like more .
Jeff : Well , because of your head trauma , there s really not much that I can give you .
Zoe : Oh .
Jeff : So it s going to be a rough couple of days . I ll check in with you later .
Zoe : Thank you .
Jack : Hey , Derek . I m sorry it took me so long to get here .
Derek : Well , it seems Zoe s attack was the result of a hate crime and not the Satin Slayer .
Jack : Really ? Have you had a chance to question her ?
Derek : I was just about to .
Zoe : Thank you .
Orderly : You re welcome .
Bianca : Well , the good news is that Julia was able to keep this all under wraps , so you do nt have to worry about any paparazzi hanging around , trying to get your picture in the bushes .
Jack : Hey , sweetheart .
Bianca : Hey , Jack .
Jack : Hi , Zoe . I m very sorry about what happened . Um -- if you d feel up to it , we d love to ask you some questions . Did you see your attacker ?
Zoe : It s all still hazy .
Derek : Do you recall if he said anything ?
Zoe : I m not sure . J.R. --
Derek : What about J.R. ?
Zoe : He was there .
Jack : Wait a second . Are you -- are you saying J.R. Chandler did this to you ?
Zoe : No , no , no , no , no , no . No , he was --
Zoe : He was at the cemetery later , after I d been hurt . I was on the ground and J.R. saw me . He left me there .
J.R. : You ve been quiet for a while now . Is that a good thing or a bad thing ?
Krystal : Oh . It s a very good thing , J.R. I forgive you . I forgive you .
Adam : That is the most beautiful thing I have seen in weeks . Ha . I m so glad you two are nt at each other s throats anymore . Well , this young fellow here -- you ve met him -- made a few mistakes .
Krystal : We all have .
Adam : Yeah . Well , just tell me that we can all get along together now , like a real family .
Krystal : We are a real family .
Adam : Oh .
Kendall : Now I know why you were so quiet in the car ride here . Alexander Cambias , Sr . , beloved father , beloved husband , 1942 - 2003 . Have you ever been here before ?
Babe : When you call Mama , can you tell her that I love her and I miss her and Little A , too ?
Josh : I will . I promise . Oh , my excuse to go get some French toast . I m leaving you in very good hands . I promise . You , on the other hand , better watch your back .
Wendy : I m not worried .
Josh : I ll see you soon .
Babe : Do nt forget to call Mama .
Josh : Do nt you forget to get some rest .
Woman s voice : Dr. Conway to ICU , Dr. Conway to ICU .
Krystal : Did you -- did you ever see that department store photo of Babe and me where she was about 6 years old ?
J.R. : The one where you guys are wearing those matching 1980s dresses ?
Krystal : Yeah , and the matching 1980s hairstyles ?
J.R. : Hmm .
Krystal : One big ponytail right out of the side of my head .
J.R. : Yeah , yours was on the right .
Krystal : Yeah , and Babe s was on the left .
Adam : No , you did nt .
Krystal : Oh , yeah . It was bad . It was bad .
J.R. : Babe loved that picture .
Krystal : Yeah .
Adam : Oh .
Krystal : I m surprised you married into this family after you saw that picture .
Adam : Ah . I want to take a look at that photograph .
Krystal : No . No way .
Adam : Oh . Oh , Bi --
Bianca : You heartless son of a bitch .
Kendall : I do nt think it was such a good idea to come here . You re upset , Zach -- I can feel it . What are you thinking right now ? Just talk to me .
Woman s voice : Michael Cambias -- it ca nt be .
Kendall : You know what , Zach ? I think that we should leave .
Zach s voice : Crazy old man --
Woman s voice : But he was your father .
Kendall : We know it s a lie . We know that what is says is a lie . Your father was not beloved --
Ryan s voice : Take the DNA test .
Kendall : Not by you , not by anyone .
Ryan : Of dollars to --
Kendall : He died a lonely , bitter unloved man .
Zach s voice : May he rot in hell , along with you .
Joe s voice : I ve never been asked to do something like this .
Kendall : You re upset , Zach . I can feel it . Are you sure this is nt just stirring up a bunch of painful memories ?
Kendall s voice : He died a bitter , unloved man . He died a bitter , unloved man . He died a bitter , unloved man . He died a bitter , unloved man . He died a bitter , unloved man .
Zach ( to Kendall ) : There s a secret in that grave . Dig him up .
J.R. ( to Adam ) : Learn from my stupid mistakes , Dad . Do nt do anything to Krystal that you re going to regret .
Adam : Why would I do anything to Krystal ?
Babe ( to Josh ) : Are you lying to me ? Am I going to die ?

Starr : I ca nt tell you .
Todd : It s not about him , is it ? You want me to let you out of here so you can go see that teacher of yours .
Starr : No , it was nt Mr. J. On the phone . It was Cole . It s Cole who is in trouble and if you do nt let me go to him right now , I m afraid of what I ll find when I get there .
Matthew : It should be you in that chair instead of me . It should be you !

Matthew : You know , there s an easy way you can make that happen . Jump .
Viki : You re Brody Lovett .
Brody : Maam --
Viki : Would one of you like to explain to me why you were hiding in the bushes ? And you seem fully aware of that fact .
Stacy : Whoo ! You must have pissed someone off in a former life to be out here sleeping all alone . Me , on the other hand -- with a little luck , I ll have a warm bed and a beautiful man waiting for me .
Gigi : Shane , you hardly touched the celebration cake Noelle baked for you . Do nt worry ; she packed it up to go for you so it s here when you want it .
Rex : And I recorded all your favorite shows while you were in the hospital in case you missed them .
Gigi : So , you know what that means . Chocolate cake and HDTV .
Rex : Two great tastes that taste great together .
Shane : Would you two just cut the crap ?
Gigi : Excuse me ?

John : You take the bed . I ll take the couch . It would nt be the first time .
Marty : It would nt be the first time we slept in a bed together , either .
Starr : Ca nt you see how important this is to me ?
Todd : Getting away from me ? Yes , I can see it . Could nt miss it . I had to threaten to call the cops just to get you out of Dorian s .
Starr : Dad , that s not what this is about .
Todd : No , it s about Cole dying , apparently -- unless I let you leave .
Starr : Yes , exactly .
Todd : And I should believe you why ?
Starr : Because I m your daughter and I m asking you to trust me .

Shane : Happy ? I m still waiting to see if Aunt Stacy s cells are going to save me , and you two are splitting up .
Rex : I -- I promise you , that s not going to change anything between us .
Shane : On what planet ?
Gigi : Shane --
Shane : I ve been through this before , remember ? When I did nt know Dad was my dad and I thought Brody was . Brody slept on the couch , and it was not cool then . This would be 10 times worse .

Matthew : You know , you keep saying that -- well , that you re sorry and that you wish you could trade places with me . Well , you ca nt . But , you know , if you were in a chair , too , at least we d be even , right ? The fall wo nt kill you . I mean , it s only the second floor . But you know , if you angle yourself just right , if we re lucky , you can become paralyzed , a cripple , just like me .
Cole : You re right . I wrecked everything . You , Starr , our baby -- now I have to wreck me , too .
Starr : What s happening with Cole is private . You just have to trust me . Ca nt you do that ?
Todd : No . You ve lied to me before .
Starr : You ve lied to us a million times -- over and over again , Dad . Okay , if I was ever in trouble -- right , or Jack , or Sam , or Mom -- you would drop everything and do anything to get to us , would nt you ?
Todd : Yes , of course .
Starr : Okay . Give me that chance . You say you love me so much . This is what love is . What I m doing right now is what love is all about . What I did for you when you needed me -- I lied in court so you would nt go to jail . It s about putting other people s needs ahead of your own . I need to walk out that door , dad . I m going right now . You can chase me , you can tackle me , you can do whatever , but I will crawl if I have to to get to Cole . Just please let me go .
Todd : Starr -- here , take mine .
Todd : Hey , fill the tank up before you bring it back .
Rex : You are going to be okay . We are going to be okay . I mean it . Your mom and I , we will work out a schedule and I will see you every single day . And sometimes , you can sleep over at my house with me if you want , too . I really need you to understand that I am not going anywhere , even though I m going . I really need you to get that . You are not losing me . I am your father , and I always will be .
Shane : The whole time when I was in the hospital , when I was scared and I could nt sleep , I d think of the day that I d come home , how awesome it would be when the three of us would be together . We were a family for , like , 5 minutes , Dad .
Gigi : We still are . We always will be . Your dad --
Shane : Do nt , okay ? Just do nt .
Rex : Shane , wait . I love you more than anything .
Shane : But not enough to fix things with Mom .
Gigi : Rex
Stacy : I do nt know how you do it . My old boyfriend kicked me out and I ve only been wandering the streets for a day and I already want to slit my wrists . Good thing the guy I really want is in some need of some TLC , and I m just the girl to give it to him . You know , if you were awake , I d ask you how I look . Good enough to eat ?
Homeless woman : Tex - Mex is more my speed , but you ll do . I m homeless , I m not a cannibal . You want to know what you look like ? It ll cost you a dollar . A whore . Corner of Fourth and Cambie is that way . You re painted bright enough to pull a john from 20 paces in the dark . You need to tone it down . Especially if you want to reel in some guy who just lost the love of his life .
Stacy : You heard all that ?
Homeless woman : Nothing wrong with my ears .
Stacy : Okay , Gigi is not the love of his life , okay ? And I can love him way better than she ever could .
Homeless woman : You want in ? Desperate will work a whole lot better .
Stacy : Meaning ?
Homeless woman : This guy s ego took a beating when this lady dumped him , so va - va - voom wo nt cut it . But damsel in distress , huh ? He ll lap that right up .
Natalie : Just how much damage do you want to cause to my family ?
Jessica : Natalie , it s okay .
Natalie : No , it s not okay .
Jessica : We were just talking . We were getting a few things straight .
Natalie : What do you have to get straight ? This jackass wrecked my brother s family . He slept with Gigi .
Viki : What ?
Natalie : Yes . Yes , it s true . Captain fantastic , here , hopped in the sack with mother of the year while my nephew is fighting leukemia .
Jessica : Natalie --
Natalie : What a hero .
Jessica : You do nt know about the whole situation , okay ?
Natalie : Jess -- Jess , please , please tell me you re not letting this guy get to you , are you ?
Marty : I wish I could remember .
John : I know all this must be strange for you .
Marty : Can you fill in the blanks for me ? If it was -- why did nt we go on if it was so opposite of bad ?
John : The next morning , you were gone .
Marty : I walked out on you ?
John : It was the morning you were kidnapped .
Cole : I ca nt take this anymore . The pain is killing me .
Matthew : Wait until you ca nt feel anything . That s worse .
Cole : Matthew , please -- please , I ll do whatever you want . Just please -- help me !
Matthew : How ? With these ? Do you want to get high again ? You want to cripple another kid ? Will that make you feel better ?
Cole : No ! Get back here , you son of a bitch ! Matthew , please . Matthew , please come back . Please come back and help me .
Matthew : I can help you , but you know what has to be done . I did nt do anything wrong ! I did nt commit a crime ! I did nt do drugs ! So , if I have to be in a chair , so do you ! Come on , Cole . You re almost there . You ca nt take back what you did , but you can even it out .
Cole : [ Unintelligible ]
Starr : Cole ! Cole !
Jessica : You know , my sister s right . Pretending to be my friend , making me think we had a chance for something more -- what , did nt I act quick enough ? You gave Gigi the same offer ?
Brody : Oh , hey --
Jessica : Forget it . I m tired of listening to you .
Brody : Fine . You know , I tried apologizing , a fat lot of good it did me .
Jessica : Well maybe because it s too unforgivable to apologize .
Brody : The worst mistake I ever made was even trying to hook up with you .
Jessica : The worst mistake I ever even made was trying to hook up with you . You re nothing but an ass .
Jared : Jessica , you all right ?
Jessica : I -- I will be .
Natalie : Jess , listen . I m really sorry -- sorry I got on to you about him . It s just you deserve so much better . You really do .
Jessica : Thank you .
Jessica : Thanks for playing along . You do know that--
Viki : Honey , I know nothing . But I m starting to get an idea .
Jessica : Natalie and Jared think that Brody and Gigi are scum . But the truth is that he is a really great guy and Gigi is in the worst bind that a woman could ever possibly be in .
Stacy : Hey .
John : I went out to get some coffee and when I came back , you were gone .
Marty : Where were we ?
John : A motel room in New Orleans .
Marty : What were we doing in New Orleans ?
John : We were on a kind of a road trip .
Marty : Motel again ? No B & B ? Cheap date .
John : Our car had broken down . It was late and while we were waiting to get it fixed , we grabbed the only room we could .
Marty : So it was like an accident , us being -- we did nt plan anything .
John : No . No , but we d been spending a lot of time together . But the trip was nt about that . I was trying to track someone down .
Marty : And I was helping you . No wonder you are having a déja vu . And the room was like this ?
John : Yeah . It was nt the kind of place where you thought something deep would happen .
Marty : But something deep did happen ?
John : Yeah , we had this very intense conversation beforehand .
Marty : About what ?
John : You told me about your husband -- about the night he was killed . You okay ?
Marty : Yeah . No , tell me .
John : You said you were on the phone with him when it happened . He was shot while you were talking with him . You heard the whole thing . You said you never told anyone before about that night . But you told me .
Marty : Then what ?
John : Well , I guess you trusted me , so I trusted you . And I told you about someone I loved that was taken from me . And then --
Marty : What ?
John : I said I did nt know what I d do if I lost you . We were both scared about opening up to somebody else . But somewhere along the way we decided to take the chance .
Marty : And then we made love .
Starr : Cole , what s going on ? Who were you talking to ?
Cole : Matthew s right . I need to even it out .
Starr : Even what out ? What do you mean Matthew s right ?
Cole : You re not here , Starr . You re not here .
Starr : Cole , I am right here . I m here . What are you talking about , Cole ? I m right here .
Cole : I deserve to be in that wheelchair , not Matthew .
Starr : What wheelchair ? What are you talking about ? I m real . I m real , Cole , okay ? And I m right here . I m not going to leave you . You re not alone . You re safe . Come here You re safe now .
Todd : Hey , guys . It s time to brush your teeth , get ready for bed .
Blair : Where are they ? !
Viki : Gigi ? Hi , hon , I came -- what s the matter ?
Gigi : Rex .
Viki : What ?
Gigi : He just moved out .
Viki : Oh , God , honey , I m so sorry . Do you want to talk about it ? I know Shane just came home from the hospital . Lois makes these . They re outrageously good .
Gigi : Thank you . He ll love them .
Viki : What s his prognosis ?
Gigi : We do nt know . He did nt reject the transplant but now we just have to wait and see if it s gon na do what it s supposed to do .
Viki : Thank God your sister was a match , huh ?
Gigi : Yeah , yeah , and Shane s strong . He s the best of his dad and me , so he just has to beat this . That s all that matters .
Viki : Well , it is the most important thing , yes , but , honey , it s not all that matters . [ Sighs ] Darling , you were so happy before your sister came to town . And then Shane got sick , and since then nothing you ve done with your life , darling , has made any sense at all . So I have to ask you if Rex s leaving has anything to do with Stacy .
Rex : How did you know I d be here tonight ?
Stacy : I did nt . I just took a shot . I mean , I figured you would nt be at my sister s place .
Rex : You figured right . What s with the suitcase ? Did something happen with you and Schuyler ?
Stacy : Yeah , something happened , but , you know , you ve got your own stuff . Yeah , I should go somewhere else .
Rex : No -- no , uh , stay , please . It looks like we could both use somebody to talk to .
Stacy : Sure , if that s what you really want .
Cole : Are you real ?
Starr : Yeah .
Cole : Are you real ?
Starr : Of course I m real . I told you I would come back , and I came back .
Cole : Your dad ?
Starr : My dad was not going to keep you and me apart , okay ? And no one s going to , and I m not going to leave you , all right ? Now , come in here . I m going to shut the window . Come here .
Cole : They told me I was no good .
Starr : Who said that ?
Cole : Your dad , Markko , Matt , Nora , my mom -- they were all here .
Starr : No , they were nt . They were nt here , Cole . You are seeing things . They were nt here . They were doing what we read about , remember ? You were hallucinating .
Cole : What they said was true .
Starr : No , you were hallucinating .
Cole : I saw Matt -- I saw Matt sitting in the wheelchair ! He was sitting right there .
Starr : Okay --
Cole : He stood up -- he stood up , he walked . He stood up , he walked that way . He told me that I had to jump out .
Starr : No --
Cole : Then I d be just like he is .
Starr : Cole , he would never say something like that to you ever . He would never want that to happen -- never .
Cole : I know . I know . So , it was me -- I wanted it .
Starr : Oh , no .
Cole : I wanted to do to myself what I did to him .
Starr : No , you did nt .
Cole : But you came back . You came back and you stopped me and you saved me .
Starr : Hold me .
Blair : Okay , you called me . Now , where are my kids ?
Todd : The boys are upstairs .
Blair : Where s Starr ?
Todd : Starr went out .
Blair : She went out ? Where did she go at this hour ?
Todd : She had something to take care of .
Blair : Fine , you laugh all you want . I m going to get the boys and then I m going to be on my way . Jack , Sam , come on down here !
Todd : When did you get out of the hospital ?
Blair : I did nt get out of the hospital -- I left , all right ? I left when I found out that you even tried to steal my kids from me .
Todd : So you just walked out ?
Blair : I m here , are nt I ?
Todd : You think that was a good idea ?
Blair : You know what ? It was nt good for you , now , was it ? Because you would have loved it if I d been stuck in that hospital bed forever , would nt you ? What were you going to do ? You going to try to take my kids away from me forever ? Maybe run off with them , like you and Marty were going to do with my grandbabies ?
Todd : Oh , hold on .
Blair : Do nt -- I m fine . I just want you to go upstairs and get the boys . Get the boys and you re going to help me put them in a taxicab that s waiting out -- just go do it , Todd !
Todd : Blair , first of all , you re not going to take the boys anywhere . I ve got custody . Secondly , look at you . It s terrible . You re very weak . I m going to call you an ambulance .
Blair : No , you re not calling anybody . I m here and I m their mother , Todd . I am their mother !
Todd : Okay , take it easy .
Blair : Do nt tell me to take it easy . You go to court , you try to take my kids away from me -- when I could nt fight back . That s low .
Todd : Lower than marrying John McBain ?
Blair : Oh --
Todd : Making him the kids stepfather .
Blair : John did nt kill anybody , okay ? But he did nt stick around either . So I m going to take matters into my own hands . I m going to get the boys and I m going to go . Sam ! Jack ! It s Mom !
Todd : Hold it -- whoa .
Marty : Did we really just have one night together ?
John : Yeah .
Marty : Ever wonder what would have happened if we had more than one night together ?
John : Every day .
Viki : Honey , I know you . I knew you before Rex came into your life and I ve known you since . And none of this adds up .
Gigi : With all due respect , Viki , there s a lot you do nt know about me .
Viki : That is very true . What I do know is what you told me , honey . That you ve had a lot of trouble with Stacy ever since she came here . Like her parading around half naked in front of Rex .
Gigi : It s not Stacy -- it s me , okay ? I slept with someone else . I cheated on Rex . That s all there is to it .
Viki : Yeah , so you said . Honey , I do nt believe it . I did nt then and I do nt now .
Gigi : It s true . And it was nt just someone , it was Brody .
Viki : Yeah , I just heard that .
Gigi : You did ? Who from ?
Viki : Natalie .
Gigi : Oh , she hates me now .
Viki : Well , she grew up with Rex as her brother , so she s furious with you and Brody .
Gigi : I m sorry about that .
Viki : She loves Rex . You love Rex . You did nt sleep with Brody . I do nt believe it . What I ca nt figure out is since it did nt happen , why are you saying it did , darling ? What is really going on ?
Stacy : Yeah , Schuyler and I had this big blowout after all that crazy stuff he tried pulling at the hospital . It s weird .
Rex : Lifting some stranger s blood sample , dangling it in front of me , saying it was yours ? Yeah , I d say weird does nt really cover it .
Stacy : Yeah .
Rex : What s that guy s problem , anyway ?
Stacy : I told him he would never have a chance with me .
Rex : Well , people can act crazy when they feel that way about someone .
Stacy : I know , you re right . I guess I was actually pretty lucky he kicked me out when he did .
Rex : Yeah , it s for the best .
Stacy : Yeah .
Rex : Well , I m sorry you had to spend all that time wandering around upset . What are you going to do ?
Stacy : Look , Rex , I have no money . I have no place to go . Can I stay here with you ?
John : I could nt stop looking until I found you . I was too late . Cole and I thought we saw you die .
Marty : Oh , my God .
John : And then I found out that Manning had someone living in his house , and my gut told me that you were there .
Marty : That connection you felt was still there .
John : But I know everything is different now .
Marty : It is and it is nt . We ve kind of come full circle . Here we are alone in a room together . Someone out there trying to kill me just like that other night .
John : I m never going to lose you again .
Todd : You re a mess . You ve got no business being out of that hospital . What are you thinking ? You think you re going to be any good to the kids ?
Blair : Where s Starr ? I ca nt believe you let her out of your sight .
Todd : She made a pretty good case about something , and I trusted her .
Blair : Wow , wonders never cease .
Todd : She s pretty willful . Wonder where she got that .
Blair : Here we go , here we go .
Todd : Of course I blame that on you .
Cole : I feel like such a loser .
Starr : You re not a loser . Do you hear me ? You are not a loser at all . You are going to get through this , and losers could not get this , all right ? You re so much stronger than you think you are . Yes , you are , okay ?
Cole : So how long until your dad comes looking for you ?
Starr : I do nt know -- tomorrow , maybe , but he s not going to take me away from you , and I am not leaving you . We are a team , okay ? We re going to get through this together . You ll see . You ll see .
Brody : Ahem .
Jessica : Did you have to get into ripping me so much ?
Brody : Did you have to call me an ass ?
Jessica : Sorry .
Brody : Yeah , me , too . But you re kind of hot when you re pretending to be pissed .
Jessica : Right back at you , Lieutenant .
Brody : Are you sure your mom s okay with this ?
Jessica : Are you sure you re okay with it ?
Brody : Get over here .
Shane : Someone here ?
Gigi : Mrs. Davidson .
Shane : Sorry I was such a brat .
Gigi : You were nt a brat . Come here . You were just upset . Because we all are . But you re my guy and I would die for you .
Rex : Sure , yeah , of course you can stay . You probably saved my son s life . The least I could do is let you stay here a night or two .
Stacy : Thank you .
Rex : I ll go get some blankets and a pillow .
Stacy : You ll never even know I was here . Wow , this is easier than I thought , sissy .
Rex : Towels are in the cupboard next to the bathroom .
Stacy : You are a lifesaver .
Rex : No , that d be you .
Stacy : Really , thank you for letting me stay here .
Rex : Do nt mention it .
Stacy : Is there anything that I can do ? I mean , you just seem so sad .
Rex : I am . I ve been all over the map since all this went down with Shane and then with Gigi . I mean , I ve had problems before -- big ones -- but I do nt think anything s ever felt as bad as this .
Stacy : Rex , I m really sorry .
Marty : Thank you for telling me about us .
Blair : Fine , Todd , fine . You blame me for Starr having a will of her own . Go right ahead , but go upstairs and get the boys and bring them down .
Todd : I m not going to get the boys .
Blair : Get them , Todd !
Todd : You re not getting the boys ! Even if you were a picture of health , I would nt let you do that .
Blair : Really ?
Todd : Really .
Blair : Fine .
Todd : Oh , come on .
Blair : Oh , come -- okay , you know what ? If the kids are going to be under this roof , then so am I.
Cole : I love you so much , Starr .
Starr : I love you , too , Cole .

### Dialogue:
Eve : You are doing the right thing .
Brady : There s a concept .
Eve : Come on , brady , you re being too hard on yourself .
Brady : Eve , maybe-- maybe the right thing is to tell eric the truth ... tell him that I blackmailed nicole into leaving town and dumping him . But then again , that truth is gonna -- it s gon na hurt nicole and holly and--
Eve : And nicole and holly are happy , and eric and ... jennifer are happy , so , you now what ? Trust me , you re making the right decision . It s best for everyone if eric stays in the dark .
Brady : Hmm . [ Cell phone rings ] Oh , it s -- it s , uh ... [ Cell phone rings ] It s tate and theresa .
Eve : Okay .
Brady : I m gon na ... hey , buddy . How you doing ? Is everything okay out there ?
Jennifer : Hi ! Oh ! [ Laughs ] Hey !
Eric : Hey , I m sorry . Did nt mean to startle you .
Jennifer : No , no , I just ... I was so distracted .
Eric : Talking to yourself . Sounds like you re wrestling with a big decision . You want to talk about it ?
Eve : I mean , it was easy for eric to let go of nicole because she made it very clear that ... she did nt want anything to do with him , but ... I do nt know , what do you think would happen ... if eric knew the truth to why she really left ? That she was forced to by his brother .
Eric : Jenn , are you okay ?
Jennifer : Yeah . I ... I just discovered a pretty major secret , and I do nt really know what to do about it .
Jj : [ Panting ]
Gabi : [ Panting ] Hey . Are you looking for these ?
Jj : Thank you .
Gabi : It s okay . You dropped them , like , A ... a mile ago . Are you , uh ... trying to set a new speed record or just ... I was running for you after a while .
Jj : Yeah , I m just -- I m just working off some stress .
Gabi : Your job ? Are you still suspended ?
Jj : Yeah , but , uh ... you know what ? I m hoping that s changing .
Stefan : Kate . We need to talk .
Kate : Are you having me followed ?
Stefan : Desperate measures . You ve been avoiding me .
Kate : I m busy .
Stefan : Uh - uh . Obviously you re not busy doing what I asked .
Kate : Let go of my arm .
Stefan : Listen to me . You agreed to provide me with intel on what chad s doing at titan , and nothing . Even when I threatened your attack dog ted-- or is he your lapdog?-- That I expect complete cooperation .
Kate : I said let go of my arm !
Stefan : Time s up . You get what I need , or I will blow you out of the water .
Chad : Hi .
Abigail : Hi . I m not gon na ask how you are , but I m just ... worried .
Chad : Okay .
Abigail : It s been almost 24 hours since you left the house .
Chad : Well , I -- I ... texted you . I told you I was gon na stay at the office .
Abigail : Does nt mean I m not worried .
Chad : Ah . I m sorry that I worried you . It s just , you know , I ve had a lot on my mind with work and ... the fact that my wife is ... carrying stefan s child .
Abigail : I know . But I guess ... I was hoping that we would be able to ... figure this out together , you know , unless ... you do nt think that s possible .
Male announcer : Like sands through the hourglass , so are the days of our lives .
Eric : A secret , huh ? A biggie ? Well , what is it ?
Jennifer : [ Sighs ] It S ... it s a story for the spectator . Maybe a story . I do nt really know if I want to put it out there .
Eric : Why ? Why would nt you ?
Jennifer : Because it would hurt a lot of people .
Eric : But it s the truth ? I mean , that s kind of your specialty .
Jennifer : Yeah , but sometimes it s more important to protect people , you know ? I mean , would that ... particular truth be worth all the pain that it s gon na cause ?
Eric : It s quite the dilemma . But in my opinion ... it s better to be honest . I mean , I know it s gon na be scary as hell . It s better to save all that heartache .
Jennifer : Well , I am going to take your words of wisdom under advisement , and I m gon na go home and just puzzle it out--
Eric : Well , hey . Is there any chance you d be up for dinner with all that puzzling ?
Jennifer : Um , yeah , yeah . I would like that .
Eric : Great . Text you a time and a place .
Jennifer : Okay .
Eric : I love you .
Jennifer : I love you too .
Brady : Okay , you be good . I ll talk to you soon , okay buddy ? Bye .
Eve : Mm . You okay ?
Brady : Eve .
Eve : Hmm ?
Brady : My son is on the other ... side of the country . I do nt know when I m gon na see him next . I do nt get to tuck him in . I do nt get to throw a ball with him . I m not okay .
Eve : I know , and I m sorry , and I just wish there was something I could do .
Brady : Well , the ... the damage is done . There s nothing anybody can do . Except maybe jennifer .
Eve : Jennifer ?
Brady : She was here earlier . She did some digging . And get this : She seems to think victor might be responsible for hiring someone to plant those drugs in jj s apartment to frame theresa .
Eve : [ Scoffs ] Well , you know jennifer . I mean , she s always putting her nose where it does nt belong . I mean , it s not like anything s gon na come of it .
Brady : I m gon na call her .
Eve : Come on .
Brady : No , I need to know .
Eve : Brady , brady . It is not gon na change the custody agreement , sweetheart .
Brady : Maybe not , maybe not . But if my grandfather was responsible ... for me losing custody of my son , and he played dirty , then there s hell to pay .
Eve : [ Sighs ]
Abigail : Chad , are you still there ?
Chad : Yeah .
Abigail : Have you already decided that you ca nt accept this child ? Because I think that maybe if we could just talk again--
Chad : Like I said , I-- you know , I have nt really had time to make a decision . I was working all night , and ... I havenT ... [ Clears throat ] I have nt had any time to think about it .
Abigail : Okay , yeah . Fine . I understand . But I love you . And I love our son and I love our family , and I know that this all seems really impossible right now , but ... I think that we could have the life that we want--
Chad : Uh , victor just walked into my office . I got ta jump into a meeting .
Abigail : Are you coming home tonight ?
Chad : I -- I got ta go .
Kate : This does nt look like your office .
Chad : [ Clears throat ] Yeah , um ... how much of that did you hear ?
Kate : You lying to abigail .
Chad : I just ... I needed time to think , so ...
Kate : About what ?
Chad : Abby s pregnant .
Kate : Congratulations ?
Chad : It s stefan s child .
Brady : Maybe that s jenn . Stefan . What can I do for you ?
Stefan : If this is your idea of how to conduct business , I m not impressed .
Brady : Is there a problem ?
Stefan : The contract between dimera and basic black ? Still waiting .
Brady : Yeah , um ... we have some personal matters that -- that took precedence .
Stefan : Oh . Well , if you ca nt manage to keep your personal lives from interfering with business , then perhaps I should reconsider acquiring basic black .
Eve : Just back down just a little bit . Acquiring is a hell of a lot different than being a partner .
Stefan : Look , you both are being more than adequately compensated whilst retaining control , with the added perk that you ll be sticking it to victor . That s one of the goals , is it not ?
Eve : Yeah , and you buying us away from titan gives you the opportunity to stick it to chad , so I think we re all happy here .
Stefan : Well , chad s made it no secret that he s coming after me and dimera . So I need to know who s on my side and who isnT. You ve had enough time to make a decision . So are we moving forward or are we not ?
Eve : Yeah . We have a deal . I ll get you the paperwork . I made a few additions here and there . There s an increase in shares that brady and I will retain .
Stefan : [ Scoffs ]
Eve : And there s a performance - based bonus that I think that you will find appropriate , right there .
Stefan : You re very adept at ... looking after your own interest .
Brady : That s one thing you re gon na learn about this woman , working with her . She s always got a trick up her sleeve .
Jj : So my mom nailed the child services guy for planting the drugs .
Gabi : I ca nt believe that . I mean , what a dirtbag .
Jj : Yeah .
Gabi : Somebody must have paid him off to do that .
Jj : Yeah . I mean , my mom is all over it . And whoever it is will be sorry when she finds them . In the meantime , the dirtbag has promised to talk to my supervisor and clear my name .
Gabi : That s greaT.
Jj : Yeah .
Gabi : I m happy for you .
Jj : Thank you . Let s see if it works .
Gabi : It ll work . You re the best .
Jj : So what s going on with you ? Is arianna talking to you yet ?
Gabi : Uh , no .
Jj : You know she loves you .
Gabi : I do nt know anything right now .
Jj : You want me to talk to her ? I will .
Gabi : Thank you . I appreciate that , but you ... you ve got a lot going on with everything that s happening to abigail and everything .
Jj : Abigail ? What are you ... what are you talking about ?
Gabi : I , um ... I m sorry , I assumed that you knew .
Jj : Knew what ?
Kate : So you hit him ? [ Chuckles ] He hit back .
Chad : Yeah , he was , uh ... he was bragging to chloe about how he was having a child with my wife . Gloating ... gabby s gon na live forever through his child .
Kate : Which you ll help raise . Sorry .
Chad : I do nt know what to do . I know it s selfish , but if I -- if I -- if I stay , then I m stuck with this constant reminder of what happened .
Kate : Has abigail considered getting an abortion ?
Chad : She almost did .
Kate : But she did nt go through with it , though ?
Chad : Stefan talked her out of it .
Kate : Oh . So she s listening to him .
Chad : Well , uh , you know , she said it s not about him . It s about ... accepting her , uh , you know , her other personalities or whatever . Part of the integration process .
Kate : But ?
Chad : But ... well , I mean ... you know , what if -- what if-- what if it s because she has feelings for him ?
Kate : Abigail loves you .
Chad : Yeah , but gabi loved him . And now gabi s a part of ... her , so what if abigail loves him ?
Kate : Have you asked her that ?
Chad : I did ; she denied it .
Kate : You think she s lying to you ?
Chad : I do nt know , I think , maybe ... [ Clears throat ] What if she s lying to herself ?
Abigail : Oh , god , that s our wedding present from jj . Thomas loves this thing .
Jennifer : Hey , sweetie . Abigail ? Hey , it s just a toy . We can fix that .
Abigail : I m pregnant , mom . And the baby is stefanS.
Jennifer : Oh , god . In terms of treating sensitivity ,
Eric : Thank you .
Roman : You are looking very pleased with yourself .
Eric : I saw brady earlier .
Roman : Really ?
Eric : Mm - hmm .
Roman : No bruises , grin on your face . I would guess it went well .
Eric : It did . I laid it all out . I apologized for what happened with nicole . I owned every bad decision I ever made . And brady accepted my apology .
Roman : Wow . That is great news . I mean , the world can always use a little more peace .
Eric : [ Laughs ] Who knows ? Brady and I might finally get our women to bury the hatchet as well .
Roman : Whoa , whoa . One miracle at a time , okay ? All right ? And since when did you become such a big fan of eve s ?
Eric : I wasnT. But I see how happy she and brady are ... and how she stood by him during the whole custody battle . Maybe I m seeing the real eve for the first time ... a woman who would do anything for the man she loves .
Eve : Wait , wait , wait , wait . You missed one right there .
Brady : I told you . Nothing gets by this woman .
Stefan : All we need is your signature , and it s official .
Eve : Okay . Mm ... well , it is ... official .
Stefan : Great . Looking forward to working with you both . And brady , what I said about personal issues ... I m not unsympathetic . I heard about you losing custody of your son . I m very sorry .
Brady : You almost sound sincere .
Stefan : That s because I am . I can relate . I m about to be a father myself .
Jennifer : Abigail . Are you sure the baby is stefan s ?
Abigail : I took a paternity test .
Jennifer : Does chad know ?
Abigail : I told him last night , and , you know , he said he needed time to think about it , but ... he has nt even been back . He spent the night at the office .
Jennifer : I m so sorry . I ...
Abigail : But I-- I do nt blame him , at the same time . I mean , the man walked in on me in bed with stefan , and ... he s tried to get past that and he s tried to move forward , but I mean , that s impossible .
Jennifer : Abigail , that was not you in bed with stefan . That was your illness . That was your -- your alter--
Abigail : That s a part of me , mom . And now , this child is gon na be a daily reminder of that moment . I am so ashamed .
Jennifer : No . You ... no . Do not be ashamed of anything . And chad loves you very much .
Abigail : He said he did .
Jennifer : Right , so that-- that s what you have together and that is what you re going to build on . And that s what will-- will get you through this time-- through all the difficult times that you ve been through together .
Abigail : Yeah , but I feel like this is -- this is different . You know , if I were chad , I donT ... I do nt know that I would be able to accept this child . I , um ... I went to a clinic in brookville to get an abortion . But I could nt do it .
Jennifer : Abigail ... why did nt you tell me this ... sooner ? I hate that you ve been alone--
Abigail : I have nt been alone . No , I havenT. I mean , I told gabi from the start , and she s actually been a really amazing friend .
Jj : Abigail is pregnant ? With -- with stefan s baby ? [ Stammers ] That s impossible . It s got to be a mistake .
Gabi : She took a paternity test , and I mean , I was there when she got the results .
Jj : You know what ? That son of a bitch raped her . To be carrying his child ?
Gabi : She was a mess , okay ? We talked it through . She even considered ending the pregnancy , but she could nt go-- she could nt do it .
Jj : Oh , my god . Uh ... chad ?
Gabi : He walked out .
Jj : He what ?
Gabi : He said he needed some time to think about it . He said he needed to process all of this .
Jj : But they love each other . He should ...
Gabi : I know . I know , and we re all ... rooting for them , but ... but just imagine . To raise ... the child of a brother that you hate ? I just hope that this does nt destroy them .
Chad : Let s , uh , let S ... let s stop talking about the fact that my wife is carrying stefan s child .
Kate : How about another round ? Or three -- on me .
Chad : Actually , I was ... I was hoping to talk to you about some business .
Kate : I -- I do nt think it s the time . I really donT. Not when you re upset .
Chad : I think right now is exactly the time .
Kate : [ Sighs ]
Chad : I m gon na destroy stefan . He needs to pay for what he s done .
Kate : Yeah , well , that day ca nt come soon enough , believe me .
Chad : Well , I have a long - term strategy for how to destroy dimera . I d like to your feedback .
Kate : No , no . No . Do not show me that .
Chad : Why not ?
Brady : So abigail is pregnant with your child ?
Stefan : She is .
Eve : Oh , jennifer s head must ve exploded with that news . [ Chuckles ]
Stefan : You do nt sound particularly upset about that .
Brady : This has got to be a very ... complicated situation for you .
Stefan : Yes , you could say that . It s given chad ... [ Clears throat ] Even more reason to hate me and to step up his plans to take back dimera , which is why I need the company ... and basic black to be on solid footing . And since the two of you already know the inner workings of titan , I was hoping to gain some insight to its vulnerabilities .
Chad : Hmm .
Eve : I m in .
Brady : What the heck ? I m in too .
Stefan : No qualms about going after your grandfather s company ?
Brady : Turns out that my grandfather may be partly responsible for me losing custody of my son . So if that s the case , I m willing to take him down ... and anybody else who helped him .
Jj : Abigail and chad went through hell because of stefaN. This is their chance to start over ... away from him . It S ... it s kind of hard to do with his kid under their roof .
Gabi : Yeah , it s horrible , but , you know , abigail always manages to come up on top , though . I mean , it s what we all want . We all want chad and abigail ... on top , right ? Of course .
Jj : That bastard will remind chad every chance he gets that this baby is his . You know , and what about the poor kid ? Stuck in the middle of all this -- this hate . The tug - of - war . If only the baby could ve been chadS.
Gabi : Almost was .
Jennifer : I know gabi has been a really good friend to you , honey , but I thought things were a little bit rough lately .
Abigail : Well , it s my fault , right ? I mean , I m the reason that she went to prison . But even if she s been upset-- and I mean , who would nt be?-- She s been a total rock despite everything .
Jennifer : And arianna s still pushing her away ?
Abigail : Unfortunately . And she just found out that she might not be able to have children ... which is also my fault .
Jennifer : Please do nt say that .
Abigail : It s true , mom . It s true . She was beaten up in prison . There was surgery , infection , scarring .
Jennifer : No , I understand all that , honey . I feel terrible for her . But I know she does nt blame you for that .
Abigail : She s been nothing but wonderful . And I do nt know , maybe if I would ve listened to what she had to say , chad would nt have left .
Jennifer : I m curious what she had to say .
Abigail : Change the results and let chad think the baby was his .
Jennifer : What ? Are you kidding me ? After everything we ve been through with jj and lani ? That s a horrible idea .
Abigail : I know , I-- you know , I could nt lie to chad for the rest of my life , but ... I mean , we ve always been very honest with each other no matter what , but I do nt know , mom . Is telling the truth really worth losing the man that you love ? I do nt know .
Kate : Okay , I do not work for titan . Do nt show me sensitive documents .
Chad : You ll be on the team soon enough .
Kate : No I wo nt , because I told you victor will not allow you to hire me .
Chad : Oh , you ... you know what ? Sonny just challenged victor to reinstate him as ceo , and you know what victor did ? He chose me .
Kate : [ Chuckles ]
Chad : Why ? Because I m the one that raised their stock by 25 % .
Kate : That must ve been a blow to sonny .
Chad : Yeah , maybe . But I m gon na decimate dimera .
Kate : Oh , god . You know , as much as it ... is appealing -- very appealing-- to think of helping you bring stefan to his knees , I do not think that bringing me to titan is a smart move , nor is showing me sensitive information , chad .
Chad : Why not ? Why do nt you just take a look ? Tell me what you think .
Kate : [ Sighs ] [ Scoffs ] Okay .
Chad : Here .
Kate : So you re negotiating with bragg shipping ?
Chad : Mm - hmm .
Kate : The same company that dimera s trying to acquire .
Chad : Yeah , they need ... they need bragg to shore up their logistic costs . Without it , they re gonna-- they ll double , triple .
Kate : There s a lot of volatility in that industry right now .
Chad : Yeah , but without this piece of the puzzle ... without having this for the logistics , they re done . We can blow them out of the water .
Kate : [ Inhales deeply ] [ Sighs ] You re making some shrewd moves . A little more cutthroat than I expected .
Chad : Ah , you know ... I m gon na have to take some risks if I m wanna take stefan down .
Kate : You know , up to this point , titan has been risk - averse . This kind of deal could be a white - knuckler if it backfires . Do you really wanna go that far ?
Chad : Like I said ... I m gon na have to get my hands dirty .
Kate : Yeah , I know the feeling .
Chad : Yeah . [ Cell phone ringing ] It s the shipping deal . I got ta ... I got ta take this . I ll be back .
Kate : [ Sighs ]
Jj : What do you mean the baby was almost chad s ?
Gabi : I just had -- I had a bright idea to tell abigail she could -- she could claim the baby was chadS.
Jj : Like lani did to me ? R ... really ? You thought that was a good idea ?
Gabi : Do nt worry . Abigail s a way better person than I am . She went with the truth .
Jj : As hard as this is , IM ... I m glad . It would nt be fair to chad or the baby .
Gabi : That s true , yeah . But now she s got ta live with the consequences ... for everyone .
Jj : It s my boss . Let s hope it s some good news , huh ? Hello ?
Stefan : Great . We ll hit the ground running and never look back .
Brady : All right .
Stefan : I ll be in touch .
Brady : Okay .
Eve : You trust him ?
Brady : Not at all . You ?
Eve : No .
Brady : But we can handle him . And with stefan , we ll be able to bring ... titan down to its knees . They will beg for mercy .
Eve : Do you really want to make your granddaddy beg for mercy ? He s family . I mean , that s -- that s -- that s cold .
Brady : So is not knowing when I m gon na see my son again . That s on victor .
Eve : Brady , I mean , even if he were responsible for planting those drugs , you know he was just trying to make sure that you kept custody of tate .
Brady : God , am I hearing you ? It sounds like you re defending my grandfather .
Eve : I just do nt think--
Brady : Are you doing that ?
Eve : Hey . I do nt think it s healthy for you to carry around all this anger , sweetheart . That s all .
Brady : All right , you know , I dont -- no , I dont-- it s not healthy to ... carry around anger , especially when I m not positive he was a part of it yet , so that s why I need to call jennifer . I need to find that out , because she may be on to--
Eve : Or , you know what ? We could actually go over there and celebrate our new deal with dimera .
Brady : Go on over there ? You wanna go over there ?
Eve : Yes , I do . Right over here .
Brady : I like celebrating .
Eve : You do ? I ll show you a little celebration . [ Giggles ]
Kate : Come on , come on ...
Chad : All right , so ... what do you think ? Impressive , right ?
Kate : It s very impressive . You ve found dimera s weaknesses and you ve targeted them .
Chad : Well , I learned from the best , so thank you .
Kate : You give me too much credit .
Chad : No , I donT. You ve always had my back , and right now , I need you more than ever . I want -- I m gon na bring you on board at titan , okay ? And together , we are gon na obliterate dimera .
Eric : Hey , I better get going . I got a dinner with jennifer tonight , and I m gon na make it something special .
Roman : Wait a minute . I got a great idea , here , okay ? Why do nt I close the place down , all right ? I ll make you a fresh batch of ma s clam chowder . Hey , I ll go in back . I ll leave you privacy , okay ? I promise .
Eric : Yeah , thanks , dad , but I was thinking a little something ...
Roman : You sure about that ?
Eric : More romantic .
Roman : Come on , think about it .
Eric : No offense .
Roman : None taken . Just wanted to offer .
Eric : Good , cause I m going to go all out for this .
Roman : Okay .
Eric : I m gon na show jennifer how crazy in love I am with her . And I got the perfect idea . Hey , come here .
Roman : [ Laughs ]
Jj : Yes , sir , I understand . Thank you .
Gabi : So ?
Jj : I got reinstated .
Gabi : What ? That s awesome ! I m so happy for you .
Jj : Oh--
Gabi : Oh , I m sorry , I m so sorry , I m so sorry .
Jj : No , I should be the one apologizing . I just got you all sweaty .
Gabi : No , I was already sweaty , but that s -- that s okay . I m glad somebody s getting good news . Not a lot of that going around .
Jj : Oh , no , youll-- hey , you ll get yours . Look , I m sure that arianna will be wrapping her arms around you any day now .
Gabi : Yeah , I mean , you re -- you re probably right . I do have a feeling that things are starting to go my way already .
Jennifer : I m guessing stefan wants to be a part of his child s life ?
Abigail : He sees it as his last remaining link to gabby .
Jennifer : Mm . And a perfect way to make chad s life horrible . I m so sorry .
Abigail : No , you re absolutely right .
Jennifer : Oh ! I forgot , I -- no , I have a date with eric tonight , but I m gon na cancel it , sweetie .
Abigail : No , wait . Because of me ? No , please donT.
Jennifer : I want to be here with you .
Abigail : No , no , no , no . I mean , you always are . You always have been . You always will be . Just go and be with the man who s crazy about you .
Jennifer : I wanna know that you re gon na be okay .
Abigail : I m fine . I will be . I m fine .
Jennifer : I love you so much , baby -- so , so much .
Abigail : I love you . I love you .
Jennifer : Listen , I know ... I know that things look bleak right now , but you and chad , you love each other so much . And you need to draw strength from that , because that is what s gon na get you to the other side , stronger than ever .
Abigail : Okay .
Jennifer : Okay ?
Abigail : Okay .
Chad : Well , I got ta get back to the office .
Kate : What about abigail ?
Chad : Oh ... what about -- I mean , I donT ... I do nt even know what ... what would I say ? I do nt even know how I feel about everything yet . I mean , what am I gon na do ? I m gon na raise stefan s child ?
Kate : Maybe you should tell her what you do know ... which is that you love her . Because you do love her , right ?
Chad : Is that enough ?
Jj : I better get home and shower .
Gabi : I got ta do the same thing .
Jj : Listen ... thank you .
Gabi : For what ?
Jj : Because youve-- you ve been a great friend , not only to me , but to abigail . We re both so lucky to have you in our lives .
Gabi : I m the lucky one .
Jj : See you .
Stefan : I got your text . I hope you have something useful for me regarding chad .
Kate : Choke on it .
Abigail : There . It s not perfect , but it ll work . Kind of like life , I hope .
Eve : I could stay like this forever .
Brady : Mm . You might be the best damn thing that s ever happened to me in my crazy life . And yes , it feels good to let go of anger . I need to let go of anger .
Eve : Do you really think that you can just ... truly let go of that vendetta against your granddaddy ?
Brady : [ Exhales ] I will always fight for what s mine . With you by my side , I mean , how can I lose , right ?
Eve : I love you , brady black . More than anything in the whole world , and I never want to lose you .
Brady : Well , theresa could nt tear us apart , so ... I do nt think anything can .
Eve : Well , nicole did nt change her mind . When she left town , she was still in love with eric .
Jennifer : Then why did she break up with him ?
Eve : Because brady forced her to .
Jennifer : I have to do this . Eric deserves to know the truth , even if I lose him .
Eric : Hey .
Jennifer : Hey .
Eric : You look beautiful .
Jennifer : Thank you .
Eric : So I pulled some strings with julie . I got the best table in the house . I ordered a special menu . I hope it s everything you like .
Jennifer : Eric , I have something really important that I have to tell you .

<s>### Instruction:
You are a helpful, respectful and honest assistant. Your task is to summarize the following dialogue. Your answer should be based on the provided dialogue only.
### Dialogue:
Daniel : You mind freshening this , sweetheart ?
Natalie : Sure , honey .
John : I did nt realize you worked here . What the hell happened to Crossroads ?
Natalie : It may come as a surprise to you , but you do nt know everything .
John : No , it s no surprise .
Natalie : First day . Just started working here .
John : So , would you like for me to leave ?
Jessica : Hey .
Antonio : Hey . I was just remembering when the town raised the money to put that statue up .
Jessica : Yeah , it was right after Luna died .
Antonio : Yeah , they asked Cris to come up with the design . He was so proud .
Jessica : He did a wonderful job .
Antonio : Yeah . Yes , he did .
Jessica : I still ca nt believe that he s gone .
Antonio : Yeah , me , either .
Jessica : That s the funny thing about this place . It s filled with so many great memories , but -- I mean , they said they found the music box right over there .
Antonio : Yeah .
Jessica : And a reporter at The Banner told me that that means that girl was probably strangled pretty near Angel Square .
Antonio : Probably .
Jessica : Yeah , her name was Elyssa Collins . My brother had hired her to do some investigation work for him .
Antonio : Oh . Your brother s now hired Evangeline Williamson to check into the murders . She s put me on the case .
Kevin : Does the L.P.D. have any other information on the Elyssa Collins murder ?
Evangeline : Not yet , but I have Antonio Vega looking into it . So if we can keep your name out of it , we will . Let me just get some more information from you .
Kevin : Sure .
Evangeline : You said you had Elyssa Collins checking into Walker Laurence s background .
Kevin : That s right .
Evangeline : What did she find out about him ?
Betsy : Do nt tell me the cat has everyone s tongue .
Betsy : Yes , yes , you have all heard right . Your beloved Aunt Betsy is going to leave some lucky someone in this room $ 30 million .
Starr : Okay . You know what , everybody ? Why are you keeping us waiting ? We all want to know who it is .
Jessica : Well , that s funny .
Antonio : Well , it seems to me like your brother wants this murder investigation kept as far away from him as possible .
Jessica : Yeah , I -- I guess so . So he hired Evangeline Williamson ?
Antonio : Might as well go with the best .
Jessica : Yeah . I guess since he s lieutenant governor now , he -- he ca nt have his name connected with a homicide investigation . What s that ?
Antonio : What ? Oh . Hmm . Oatmeal .
Jessica : I see somebody was flinging her breakfast this morning .
Antonio : Yeah .
Jessica : Yeah . You got to teach that girl a little table manners .
Antonio : She s something else , is nt she ?
Jessica : Yeah , she really is . You re really lucky to have her .
Antonio : Yeah .
Jessica : So -- um -- what about the case ? How s it going ? Did you find anything ?
Antonio : It s complicated . But I m working closely with John McBain , so that helps .
Jessica : Do you like him ?
Antonio : Do I like him ? He never meant for anyone to get hurt , if that s what you mean .
Jessica : Yeah , I guess so , but --
Antonio : I do nt think Cris would want me to hold a grudge .
Jessica : I do nt think Natalie feels the same way . And I m really worried about her . Actually , you know , she just -- today s her first day at Rodi s . So , do you want to come by and check up on her ?
Natalie : If you want to order something , you can stay all day , all night . Free country . What s it going to be ?
John : How about whatever you have on draft ?
Natalie : Coming up .
Daniel : Daniel Colson , Llantano County D.A.
John : John McBain .
Daniel : F.B.I. , right ?
John : Right .
Daniel : The music box murders case . Mind sharing with me where things stand so far ?
John : I ve already shared everything I know with Bo Buchanan . I m sure he can fill you in .
Daniel : Yeah , but I m here right now .
John : When we catch this guy , he ll go into federal court first , then New Jersey will want a piece of him , then Delaware . I assure you , you re going to have all the time in the world to be filled in .
Daniel : Well , whatever happened to professional courtesy ?
John : Like I said before , I ve already told your commissioner everything I know . Trust your people , Mr. Colson . The F.B.I. does .
Daniel : Yeah , well , forgive me if I do nt put a lot of stock in the F.B.I. , especially after what happened to Cristian Vega .
Natalie : Excuse me ? Do nt you ever use my husband s name to score points , Mr. Colson -- ever .
Daniel : My apologies . I realize the loss is still very raw .
Natalie : You re damn right . Have nt had the memorial yet .
Kevin : I had Elyssa Collins check on Walker Laurence because he was chasing after my wife s cousin .
Evangeline : Blair Cramer ?
Kevin : That s right . As far as what she found , that has to remain confidential . That s family stuff , okay ?
Evangeline : Maybe I m not making myself clear . Whatever got Ms. Collins killed could have been connected to one of her investigations .
Kevin : I guess it could , yeah .
Evangeline : And you re paying me to keep your name out of the investigation . But what if Walker Laurence is the murderer copycatting the music box M.O. ?
Kevin : Oh , I doubt that -- not that he s not capable .
Evangeline : Mr. Buchanan , you said you wanted this murder solved as soon as possible .
Kevin : Absolutely .
Evangeline : Then pointing the police at Walker Laurence might turn out to be very helpful .
Betsy : Out of the mouths of babes . That s the question . Okay . Who is going to get my money when I go in three months , huh ?
Dorian : Excuse me , Aunt Betsy , doctors are not usually quite so specific about when someone is going to be leaving their loved ones . Are you certain --
Betsy : Dorian , if I tell you that I m dying , I m dying .
Dorian : I m just saying that perhaps --
Betsy : My physicians -- they re the finest in the world . If they say three months , you can take it to the bank .
Cassie : I think what mother is trying to ask -- I mean , I think what she s trying -- frankly , Aunt Betsy , you look marvelous .
Betsy : Horse manure . Flattery -- it s a waste of time . Young lady , my will is already made out . I am leaving very clear instructions about who may and who may not receive my inheritance .
Addie : Aunt Betsy ? Do I get any money ? Because if I do , I d like to give a big party at St. Ann s .
Betsy : Agatha , no . You certainly are not my heir .
Addie : I m not ?
Betsy : Although you are female , which is my first stipulation , and you have Cramer blood , which is my second stipulation . Nobody who has ever been married or borne children is going to get a cent of my money .
Addie : Well , I m going to have another piece of cake .
Betsy : I have nt spent my entire life investing my little nest egg wisely in order to give it to some Cramer --
Cassie : Ooh !
Betsy : Who s ever been involved with men .
Kelly : Oh , well , that sure cuts out a lot of people in this room .
Dorian : Um -- Aunt Betsy , yes , it is true that I have borne a child . So has Addie . And Kelly and Cassie have been married . And Blair , of course , just got married .
Betsy : Oh , yes , yes , yes , we ve all suffered through Blair s making a spectacle of herself marrying this huckster . And she certainly is not going to receive my fortune .
Todd : Oh , man ! If I would have known that , I d never have married you .
Blair : Would you stop it ? Do nt encourage her .
River : Well , that certainly leaves me out of the running -- I m a man .
Betsy : You re a child , better seen than heard .
Paul : And I m a male , too .
Addie : So s Jack .
Paul : Well , who does that leave ? Anybody ?
Blair : Well , actually , yes , it does .
Starr : That leaves me .
Blair : My beautiful , very , very sweet little girl , Starr , has not been married and has nt had any children yet .
River : Wow . Starr , looks like you get 30 mill .
Starr : This is so cool ! $ 30 million . Thank you , but I m going to be rich ! I m going to be rich ! I m gon na be rich , I m gon na be rich !
Blair : You re going to be --
Starr : I m going to be rich !
Blair : I hear you . Now stop that .
Starr : What ?
Dorian : Oh , no , let her enjoy it . Why should nt she be dancing for joy at the prospect of a $ 30 million inheritance ?
Todd : Yeah , why not , indeed ?
Betsy : That s right . A lovely , untouched Cramer female destined , I trust , to follow in my footsteps .
Starr : So , how much longer till you croak ?
Blair : Starr !
Dorian : Starr , that s terrible .
Blair : You apologize to Aunt Betsy right now .
Starr : I m sorry .
Blair : Yes .
Betsy : Oh ! No , nothing to be worried about , child . You know , my doctors say that I only have a few months , but who knows -- that might be time enough for you to learn my investment techniques .
Starr : Really ?
Betsy : Let me explain something to you about -- about leveraged currency trades .
Starr : Okay .
Blair : Mama , mama , mama -- no , no , no , no . No more cake for sweet Jack . No more .
River : You know what ? Who gives a rip ? Money just ruins your life , anyway .
Kelly : Yeah , that and other things .
River : All I want to know is where Dorian put Adriana .
Blair : So , is everything all set for tonight --
Dorian : Yes .
Blair : With my children ?
Dorian : Absolutely . Do nt worry , they ll be fine .
Blair : Good , because it is our wedding night , after all , so we must --
Betsy : Oh , my word . Must you keep on harping on that disgusting subject ?
Todd : Blair , what is the matter with you ?
Blair : Oh , what is the matter with you ? I do nt know . We got to go .
Todd : We do .
Blair : See you . Bye .
Todd : Bye .
Starr : Hold on .
Addie : Goodbye , Blair .
Todd : You dropped your train .
Blair : Bye , Mama .
Todd : See you .
Starr : Congratulations !
Blair : Whoo !
Addie : Bye !
Blair : You be good .
Starr : Are nt I always ?
Blair : And do nt get hung up on inheriting Aunt Betsy s money because it might not even happen , Starr .
Starr : Okay , do you think I m going to be married in three months oh , gosh .
Blair : Have fun .
Starr : Okay . You , too . Bye . We did it , we did it !
Todd : We pulled it off .
Starr : We re a family again .
Todd : Yeah , I could nt have done it without you . You re definitely your daddy s daughter . See you .
Kevin : Well , thanks for the update . The last thing I need is bad publicity because I happened to hire Elyssa Collins right before she was killed .
Evangeline : So you do nt have a problem with me telling the police that she was investigating Walker Laurence ?
Kevin : Okay . No , I do nt have a problem with that .
Evangeline : You know , my job would be a lot easier if you would just give me the details on what she found out about Laurence .
Kevin : I realize that .
Daniel : Lindsay . What -- what brings you to Rodi s ?
Lindsay : Actually , I was looking for you .
Daniel : Really ?
Lindsay : No . I come here for the ribs every once in a while , but do nt tell anyone because ribs and French fries are not my image .
Daniel : I wo nt . Your secret s safe with me . You know , as a matter of fact , I was thinking about trying those ribs myself . Mind if I join you ?
Lindsay : Ribs and fries .
Daniel : Sounds terrific .
John : Hey . Hey . I thought you handled that real well . I just want to say thanks .
Natalie : I really do nt need your input on how I act with other people . But if you d like to have drinks with a person like that , I could care less .
John : I was nt having drinks with him . I -- never mind .
Natalie : My sentiments exactly .
Natalie : This chemical list -- you have question marks ?
John : Yeah , they re -- they re some things I need to know more about .
Natalie : Yeah , well , all of this is in makeup , like lip blushes .
John : Lip what ? I --
Natalie : Lip blush , like stuff you put on your lips ?
John : How do you know that ?
Natalie : I work in a beauty salon , long hours .
John : Hey , tell me something -- and forgive my ignorance -- but if it was raining out , this color , would it wash off ?
Natalie : Yeah , I guess .
John : But there would be , maybe , a chemical residue still there on the skin , like , say , a cheek ?
Natalie : Mm - hmm .
John : Wow . You -- you got all that just from taking a look at this .
Natalie : It s just an observation , okay ?
Daniel : Hi .
Natalie : Would you like something ?
Lindsay : So , how do you like your new job ?
Daniel : It s okay -- most days . You know , some people still show no respect .
Lindsay : Hey , welcome to life .
Daniel : Yeah , I guess so . See that guy behind you ? That is the F.B.I. s answer to Sherlock Holmes -- arrogant as hell and definitely shows no respect .
Lindsay : I know what it s like when people show no respect . It s hurtful , especially when I m a genius and everyone around me is an idiot .
Daniel : Well , you certainly know how to keep things in perspective .
Lindsay : I have to . I ve done a lot of things I m not proud of .
Daniel : Well , we ve all made mistakes . And we all deserve to be forgiven .
Jessica : Wow . Look at that bartender . Does she look professional , or what ?
Natalie : Hey , you two .
Antonio : What are you doing here ?
John : Well , I actually thought I was coming in from the cold , but --
Antonio : Yeah .
Jessica : So , how s your first day going ?
Natalie : Well , it s just bartending , not rocket science .
Jessica : Well , could I have a grasshopper ?
Natalie : A grasshopper ? That s so retro .
Jessica : I know . Hey .
Kelly : Hey .
Jessica : How are you ? What are you doing here ?
Kelly : Oh , well , it was either come have a drink at Rodi s or hang out at Aunt Dorian s house and watch this old man - hating woman dangle $ 30 million over everyone s heads .
Betsy : Men are beasts -- big , dumb , slow , smelly . If we did nt need them for procreation , I think we should get rid of them altogether .
Cassie : Oh , with some of the new freezing techniques I ve read about , the future may be just what you want .
Betsy : Yes . Pity I m not going to be here to see it , enjoy it .
Dorian : The children are all tucked in for the night . Oh , my goodness , I did nt think Starr was going to stop talking about the money .
Betsy : What s so strange about that ? I often pleasure myself with thoughts of money before going to sleep .
Dorian : Yes , well , I m sure that Starr is going to benefit enormously if you do leave her such a magnificent legacy .
Betsy : Of course she will .
Dorian : She s had a very difficult life to this point .
Betsy : Why ?
Dorian : Mostly because she had Todd Manning for a father .
Addie : Todd s a good man . And he really loves Blair .
Dorian : Addie , dear , it s all right .
Addie : He loves Starr and he loves Jack , but tonight you could tell he was so happy .
Betsy : Who is this -- this Todd Manning ? Where is he now ?
Dorian : Oh , he s not here . He s dead . At least he s supposed to be .
Blair : Ah ! Okay ! Okay ! Okay ! Okay !
Todd : Whoa --
Blair : Okay , you know what ?
Todd : Hmm ?
Blair : You are incorrigible .
Todd : I know . But why not take a big ride ? We had the limo for the night .
Blair : A big ride ? To the ocean and back ! Oh !
Blair : And the tip that you gave that driver ? You are so generous .
Todd : Yes , I know , I m so generous .
Blair : Mm - hmm .
Todd : But it does nt matter because Starr s going to make it big with Aunt Biddy .
Blair : It s Aunt Betsy .
Todd : Does nt matter . Do you know what I think ?
Blair : What do you think ?
Todd : I think you re going to love the honeymoon I have planned for us .
Blair : I am ?
Todd : Yes . Siberia in January is lovely .
Blair : I was really looking forward to Antarctica .
Todd : Well , I changed my mind .
Blair : You did ?
Todd : Get used to it !
Blair : Oh , man !
Todd : I m a husband who changes his mind about a lot of things -- except you .
Blair : Oh .
Todd : Oh -- I changed my mind . Oh . No , every day s going to be a honeymoon .
Blair : When do we start ?
Todd : Immediately .
Blair : Really ? Okay .
Todd : Oh , you better watch out . I got you now . You re done for .
Blair : Careful .
Todd : You re mine !
Lindsay : You do nt have to pay . Can you believe they were out of ribs ?
Daniel : The burgers were great , and it s my pleasure . I m old - fashioned , so just humor me , okay ? What about David Vickers ? Have you heard anything from him ? Has he tried to sell you the Mona Lisa ?
Lindsay : No . But I ve got my eye on him .
Daniel : Well , if he tries anything , just give me a call . Shall I walk you to your car ?
Lindsay : Sure . Why not ?
John : Funny you should ask . A year ago , I got yanked off a major homicide for insolence to a supervisor and bending a few minor regulations . Then they send me to infiltrate Flynn s operation , and same thing all over again .
Natalie : Want another beer ?
John : I m fine , thank you .
Antonio : So you grew up in Jersey ?
John : Yeah , Atlantic City .
Antonio : And your dad was on the job there ?
John : Walked a beat for 12 years . Got cut down one night in a grocery store -- some kid on P.C.P.
Antonio : So it was you and your mom alone ?
John : And a brother , Michael .
Natalie : I met your brother the other day .
John : Yeah ? He s -- what do you call it ? -- A first - year intern over at the hospital .
Natalie : Yeah , he did nt seem too thrilled that you were in Llanview .
John : Well , that would be because we re -- we re not close .
Antonio : So , when did you join the F.B.I. ?
John : They recruited me off the A.C. police department . I d gotten lucky . I brought down some big casino scam .
Natalie : Oh , that s it . You grew up in Atlantic City , and you never thought once to mention that to me ? You pretend to be my pal . You seemed so interested in my billiards career . And I even showed you -- I gave you a tour of Atlantic City , and you still never mentioned to me you know the place by heart .
John : If it sounds cold , that s what undercover is .
Natalie : Yeah . Cold . That -- cold describes it just fine .
Blair : I just want to stay in this bed forever .
Todd : Well , why not ? Let Starr bring home the bacon once and for all .
Blair : Do you think that Aunt Betsy is actually going to give her that money ?
Todd : Why not ? She seems crazy enough .
Blair : You know what ? You let her have her I hate men fantasies because she obviously has never met you .
Todd : Uh - uh . She s not really my type , anyway , so it does nt matter .
Blair : Walker ?
Todd : Hmm ?
Blair : Where did you come from ?
Betsy : I want to know more about this Todd Manning .
Cassie : I think the less said , the better , Aunt Betsy .
Betsy : Nonsense . If his daughter is going to inherit my fortune , I have a right to know , do nt you think ?
Paul : From what I hear , he raped a young woman in college . I mean , the leader of a gang rape .
Betsy : Is this true ?
Cassie : Well -- yes --
Betsy : Oh !
Cassie : But that has nothing to do with Starr .
Paul : And when he was on the run from the cops , he actually murdered a guy .
Betsy : No !
Dorian : Paul , I -- I really want to acknowledge the time and effort you put into learning all about your family and Llanview --
Betsy : And star is his biological child ? She -- she has this rapist , this murderer s genes ?
Paul : You know , I m sorry . Maybe I ve said too much already .
Betsy : Frankly , you have not said too much . I m impressed with your honesty and your forthrightness . What -- what s your name again ?
Paul : It s Paul , maam . Paul Cramer .
Betsy : Well , thank you , Paul . I do nt think I need to know any more about Starr s parentage . It s obvious she is yet another bad seed .
Dorian : Oh , now , Aunt Betsy , that is just plain silly .
Betsy : She s hereby disinherited .
Cassie : Aunt Betsy , she is a fine little girl .
Dorian : And , really , if you do nt leave your money to Starr , who s left ?
Betsy : Uh -- well -- Paul ? You re not married , are you ?
Paul : No , maam .
Betsy : Good . Excellent . Excellent . Yes .
Paul : This way .
Dorian : How long do you think it s going to take her to realize he s a man ?
Todd : Oh -- good morning .
Starr : I forgot my book bag .
Dorian : Hurry up , dear . I wonder , could Hedy drive Starr to school ? Because I need to see Blair immediately .
Todd : Jack , Jack , Jack , hey . How s it going , buddy ?
Dorian : Where is she ?
Todd : She s upstairs taking a shower . Forget it , talk to her later .
Dorian : No . You listen to me . Blair has to go and see her great - aunt Betsy -- this morning .
Todd : Why ?
Dorian : She has to tell Aunt Betsy what a wonderful man Todd Manning was , what a devoted husband , what a loving , adoring father he was -- etc . , etc . , etc . Otherwise , little Starr s going to lose out on that $ 30 million inheritance .
Todd : What does Todd Manning have to do with it ?
Dorian : Oh , well , Aunt Betsy has heard that Todd Manning was a despicable human being , that he was someone who ruined lives , that he was incapable of telling the truth --
Starr : You leave my dad alone . He s good and he never did anything to you and we all love him .
Dorian : Would you mind repeating that ?
Starr : Oh --
Todd : Honey , why do nt you go take Jack upstairs ?
Starr : Yeah , I m -- I m really sorry . Come on , Jack . Come on , we have to go upstairs . Come on . I m sorry .
Dorian : You know , yesterday Addie kept calling you Todd . And now Starr defends her father as if you were her father . How do you explain that ?
Kelly : So , knock them dead in Saranac , huh ?
Kevin : Sure you do nt want to go ?
Kelly : Oh , Kevin , I just -- I just think maybe a little distance , a little time apart might be good for us .
Kevin : Okay .
Kelly : Kevin ? I m scared of losing you . I m scared of losing us .
John : Good morning .
Natalie : Morning .
John : Where you headed to in such a rush ?
Natalie : Work .
John : Where s that again ?
Natalie : Foxy Roxy s .
John : Hey -- thanks for the tip on the chemicals .
Evangeline : Agent McBain ?
John : Yeah ?
Evangeline : Evangeline Williamson .
John : Right . Right . You know what ? I was -- I was just heading over to the diner to meet you . If it s okay , can we do this right here ?
Evangeline : Oh , yeah . That ll be fine . As I said on the phone , I m presenting Lieutenant Governor Buchanan . And I think you already know he hired Elyssa Collins to do some P.I. work for him .
John : Right . You said something about that , yeah .
Evangeline : Yes . Well , you might also be interested in knowing Elyssa Collins was hired specifically to investigate Walker Laurence .
John : Really ?
Evangeline : Walker Laurence is now married to Mr. Buchanan s wife s cousin , and so he was concerned about an unknown newcomer becoming part of his family .
John : Is that so ?
Evangeline : Naturally , the lieutenant governor feels terrible about Ms. Collins murder , and so he has instructed me to try to help him clear things up as soon as possible .
John : Well , clearing things up would be great , yeah . But right now we re investigating Ms. Collins murder as part of a series .
Evangeline : Yes , I read about that . But are you aware that Ms. Collins found out a great many secrets about Walker Laurence s past ?
John : Such as ?
Evangeline : I do nt have the details yet . But I d say that s a pretty strong motive for murder , would nt you ?
John : Well , like I said , we re looking at a serial killer right now -- Ms. Williamson ?
Evangeline : Mm - hmm . Or a copycat . Walker Laurence could have used the serial killings to get rid of someone who d found out something that he did nt want known . I say this in a --
John : Spirit of cooperation .
Evangeline : Yes . My client and I -- we are both anxious to help the F.B.I. out in any way that we can . Good day .
John : Very kind of you . Good day .
Todd : It s really quite simple , Dorian . Addie is a lunatic . Starr wants us to be a family . And , frankly , I m glad she s calling me daddy . Means she s forgetting about Todd .
Dorian : Unless you are Todd .
Todd : Do I look like Todd ? Do you see a scar on my face ? Do I walk like Todd ? Do I talk like Todd ?
Dorian : You know , there are certain similarities , mostly in your attitude , your arrogance , and your ill mannerisms .
Todd : Well , if you want to be a raving lunatic like Betsy , fine . Spare me your delusions .
Dorian : I m going upstairs to talk to Blair .
Todd : No , you re not . You re leaving -- on your own or with my help . It s up to you . Right now .
Dorian : Something s wrong here .
Todd : That s right -- you have nt left yet .
Dorian : If somehow you really are that monster , if you have managed to work your way into Blair s life --
Todd : Get out , Dorian .
Daniel : Then so help me --
Blair : Okay . I heard somebody at the door . Who was it ? You forgot your watch .
Todd : Starr forgot her book bag . Thank you . Hedy took her to school , and she took Jack to the playground .
Blair : Okay .
Todd : And why are nt you dressed ?
Blair : Because I m going to have a little breakfast , then I thought we could get naked again .
Todd : No , there s no time to eat .
Blair : What ?
Todd : We have a plane to catch .
Blair : A plane ?
Todd : Yes . We re married . We re going on a honeymoon .
Blair : What ?
Todd : Yes -- Saranac , Lake Champlain .
Blair : What ?
Todd : Yes . We re going to just mix a little business with pleasure .
Blair : We re covering the convention ?
Todd : Yes , where Kevin and the governor are going to play big shots .
Blair : Oh , goody .
Todd : I have some things to do . Go get dressed . We re going to be late . [ As tattoo ] The plane ! The plane !
Blair : [ As tattoo ] The plane ! The plane !
Cassie : Morning .
Dorian : Darling , it s so good to see you .
Cassie : You , too .
Dorian : Oh , thank --
Cassie : Oh , no , not for you .
Dorian : Why ? Who are they for ?
Cassie : Ca nt you guess ?
Dorian : Oh , she s getting you to wait on her ?
Cassie : She wants tea and scones in her room .
Dorian : Oh , no .
Cassie : You know , up until now , I did nt realize it , but scones could make great weapons .
Dorian : Now , now --
Paul : Hey , do you want me to take that up for her ? I m not doing anything .
Cassie : What a wonderful idea . Oh , yes . Thank you .
Paul : No problem .
Cassie : Where were you ?
Dorian : Oh , I dropped Starr and Jack over at their new home . I had a very unpleasant encounter with Walker .
Cassie : Whatever for ? The guy should be on cloud nine . He just got married .
Dorian : If my suspicions turn out to be true , the man s life could be about to implode .
Todd : No , Blair already left for the airport , so I m out of circulation till I get back . Do nt print anything I would nt . Idiot .
John : Going somewhere ?
Todd : Yes , I am .
John : No . I got some questions about the murder of Elyssa Collins .
Blair : Come on .
Blair : Hey . Where are you ?
Todd : Something came up . Why do nt you go ahead and get on the plane without me ?
Blair : Look , if it s something about business , just have Briggs bring it to the plane .
Todd : No , it s something I need to take care of personally . I ll catch the next plane . I ll see you soon , okay ? Promise . Bye .
Blair : Okay .
Kevin : Blair ?
Blair : Kevin , hey . So , yeah , I guess you re on this plane , huh ?
Kevin : Saranac , yeah . What are you doing here ?
Blair : Covering the convention . Walker is going to -- well , he s supposed to be here with me .
Kevin : But he could nt make it , huh ?
Blair : He ll be on the next flight .
Kevin : Well , I guess it s just you and me , then .
Todd : Uh -- I believe I already told you that I do nt know anything about Ms. Collins except she s a pain in the neck .
John : Oh , I bet she was , especially when she found out you were Todd Manning . Is that when you killed her ? Stay tuned for scenes from the next One Life to Live .
Kevin : You re not afraid to be alone with me , are you ?
Bo : Where were you when Elyssa Collins was murdered ?
Carlotta : Viki was going up to Lake Champlain on the governor s private plane .
Antonio : I invited John for dinner .
Jessica : I ran into Natalie , and I invited her to dinner .

### Dialogue:
Adam : What the hell have you done to my wife ? Sweetheart --
Krystal : Huh --
Adam : Can you hear me ? Get your hands off of her !
Josh : She fainted . She ll be fine .
Krystal : Babe -- Babe s alive ?
Babe : Erica ? What are you doing here ?
Erica : Sorry . I -- I did nt mean to wake you up . I -- I just saw this gorgeous bouquet of flowers in the hospital floral shop , and I thought that your room could use some brightening .
Babe : They re beautiful . Thank you . The casino gift shop sure does sell beautiful flowers . Josh told me everything .
Erica : I m just hoping that he heard something , anything , about Kendall . I m so worried about her .
Annie : Who told Emma this hat would fit Spike ?
Julia : Spike ?
Di : Oh , oh .
Julia : Oh , Kathy asked me if she could borrow that to play dress - up for her tea party .
Annie : Ah -- three guesses who got dressed up .
Di : My , I ve got to see this .
Annie : Oh , well , do nt bother . They kicked me out . They said it was a tea party for kids only .
Julia : Oh .
Annie : Yeah . The only reason they let Rachael stay is because she s their official videographer . It s actually great she s getting it on camera . Ryan and Kendall will love seeing it .
Di : I spoke to Aidan not too long ago . He says -- he hopes this will all be over soon .
Julia : Please , God .
Annie : Did he give any specifics ?
Di : He plays things pretty close to the vest . He s that way with everything .
Julia : So are you . When are you finally going to tell him that you re in love with him ?
Aidan : A dummy corp , three months after Cambias supposedly died .
J.R. : With blueprints to match Zach s house where he grew up .
Jamie : According to the broker s notes , the corporation that built this place won a bidding war with the Bureau of Land Management . They wanted to add the acreage to a place called --
Tad : Red Rock Canyon -- that s got to be it . 200,00 acres of national conservancy west of Vegas .
Ryan : National conservancy ? That does nt make any sense .
Man : I m here to sell computers , gentlemen . Nowhere on the sign does it say Internet Cafe . You want to surf the web , get a library card .
Ryan : Sold . Yeah , everything you got . All of it , sold .
Man : Are you serious ?
Tad : If he wanted to , he could buy your whole company .
Ryan : But right now , a woman s life is on the line , and we need some answers .
Tad : What can you tell us about Red Rock Canyon ?
Alexander : Say good - bye to your wife , Alex .
Kendall : No . No ! Please , please , please , stop this . Please , please -- Zach ! Zach , the gun ! The gun !
Alexander : You know you re going to have to keep your hand permanently on mine forever if you want to keep that dart away from Kendall s lovely neck ! You re going to have to learn your lesson , Alex .
Zach : No
Kendall : Please , stop !
Alexander : One step closer , I shoot , and you die ! You let go of that trigger , and she dies .
Zach : I m right here , I m not going anywhere .
Alexander : This was not the plan , Alex . Learn your damn lesson !
Kendall : No ! No ! No .
Zach : Lesson learned . Let Kendall go . I know how you feel .
Alexander : Knowing how I feel is hardly enough . You will be thoroughly punished .
Zach : All the women died because of me . All those women you killed died , because of me , and these were women that I respected , that I admired , and that I called friends ! And if I had followed in your footsteps -- if I had become you -- those beautiful women would still be alive . It has nt escaped me . And I m going to have to live with that every day of my life . Do nt you think that s punishment enough ?
Erica : It is just torture for me not knowing where my daughter is , if she s ok .
Babe : Josh has nt said anything to me about Kendall .
Erica : Josh is risking his medical license , you know that , bringing you here and hiding you out like this .
Babe : And I owe him so much for it .
Erica : Yes . Unfortunately , he may have put his sister in even greater danger than ever .
Babe : Josh is as worried about Kendall as you are , Erica . I m worried about her , too . We all just want her home safe .
Erica : Thank you . Actually , you know what ? You re right . This whole thing has been agony for all of us . Your whole family . I mean , J.R. -- I -- I have never seen J.R. like this . J.R. is bereft . I think we should call him , Babe . I think that we should let J.R. in on this . I mean , J.R. would be just -- just thrilled to know that you re alive .
Babe : No . No , no one else can know . No one .
Krystal : Babe , my baby doll , is alive .
Adam : Why does she keep saying that ?
Josh : She may be delirious . Is she on any meds ?
Adam : Prenatal vitamins . She s pregnant . What the hell are you doing in my house ? I told you to stay out of here .
Josh : Do you want to come at me , or do you want me to help your wife ? Now , go to the medicine cabinet . Bring -- bring me every prescription with her name on it .
Josh : Krystal , listen to me . You say a word about this . Not to Adam , not to anyone . I came here to take you to Babe . But for your daughter s sake , you have to keep this between us . Ok ?
Di : Things are great right now . We have fun together , you know ? You throw love in the mix and things get weird .
Julia : Wuss .
Di : Yeah , wuss . Ok , I m a wuss . What ?
Julia : Tell him .
Di : Listen , if he wants to know , he will ask . And if either one of you blows my cover , I will deny , deny , deny .
Julia and Annie : Wuss .
Di : Oh , well , look who s talking . Now , I do nt see you and Jamie picking out china .
Julia : And you never will .
Annie : I thought you guys were serious .
Julia : I love him , and I ve told him that , and he s told me back , which is , by the way , how it works , for future reference .
Di : Wait . Back up a second . And you never will -- what is that ? You do nt think you and Jamie are ever going to take the plunge ?
Julia : Ok , I guess maybe I should nt say never . Let s -- let s just say it s highly unlikely . I ve just learned to take life one day at a time , mm- hmm .
Di : In other words , we re both wusses .
Annie : Well -- ahem -- I have you both beat .
Ryan : I got the map .
Tad : Great . Listen , we ve narrowed it down to a couple of properties in a place called --
Aidan : Red Rock Canyon .
Tad : You know about it ? Do you know which house belongs to Cambias ?
Aidan : On the south side . Our man has a thing for balconies .
Tad : Awesome . We ll see you there . Come on .
Jamie : My dad already knew about Red Rock ?
Aidan : He and Ryan are on their way now .
J.R. : Well , let s go .
Aidan : Thanks for coming , boys . I got a job for you , a way you can make it up to your boss . There s two wannabe assassins in that closet . Guard them with your life . Do nt lose them like you lost Kendall .
Alexander : No punishment is odious enough for you , Alexander . What you did to me was unforgivable . I raised you . Loved you . Tended to your every need . All I asked in return was your gratitude and obedience . But instead , you made me grieve you so deeply . I thought I d soon follow you to the grave . Never have I felt such loss .
Zach : You did nt love me , Dad . You loved that I came from you , that I would be you .
Alexander : Every parent looks for themselves in their child . Our children make us immortal . Is that such a crime to admit that I wanted that from you ?
Zach : Drop the gun , and you ll have it .
Alexander : You walked away from the perfect life I had planned for you . You turned your back on me . You did something unforgivable , destroyed a father s love ! Stripped me of all the dreams I ever had for us ! If I have become heartless , it s because you made me this way . Vengeance is all I had . So I embraced it . Finally found something you ca nt take away from me .
Sean : What the hell is your problem ?
Colby : I am delivering forged notes for you at school , getting blasted with 100,000 questions from your teachers , and you re kicking back playing games ?
Sean : Fine . I wo nt ask for your help anymore .
Colby : No -- why are you being this way ?
Sean : Because I do nt need you breathing down my neck , slamming me about skipping school . Well , you re off the hook , Colby , so leave me the hell alone .
Adam : All I could find were prenatal vitamins .
Krystal : I m -- I m fine , Adam .
Adam : Sweetheart , you fainted .
Krystal : I -- I just got up too fast . I -- I felt a little dizzy , that s all .
Adam : Yeah , well , the things you were saying --
Krystal : About Babe ?
Adam : Yeah .
Krystal : Yeah , well , she just -- she flashed in my mind when I was coming to . I guess I was just really out of it . I --
Adam : Are you sure she s ok ?
Josh : Yeah , her pulse is fine . I do nt see any signs of distress .
Adam : Fine , fine -- then get the hell out of my house .
Krystal : No , no , no , no , Adam , Adam -- Josh came to see me because he misses Babe , too , so --
Adam : Huh .
Krystal : We re going to go to the cemetery to see Babe .
Adam : Sweetheart , that s ridiculous . You just -- you just fainted . You re still weak .
Krystal : No --
Adam : You re eight months pregnant .
Krystal : Adam -- Adam , honey , I m fine now , really . Besides , I ll -- I ll be with a doctor . Look , please , Adam , I -- I need to talk to Josh , ok ? I really think it s going to help us both . So we re going to go visit my daughter , and that s all there is to it . Ok ?
Babe : As far as J.R. is concerned , I m staying dead . Only Mama can know the truth .
Erica : Krystal knows ?
Babe : Josh went to go tell her .
Erica : Babe , tell me something . How long do you intend on staying hidden out like this ? I mean , once the killer is caught , then what happens ?
Babe : I ll think about it then .
Erica : Well , surely you ve thought about it .
Babe : The only thing that I ve thought about is seeing my mama and making sure my son is ok .
Erica : I see . Well , that must be very nice . It must be very nice for your mother to be able to put her arms around you and know that you are alive , that you are safe . I only hope I have that same opportunity with Kendall .
Kendall : Oh -- you are not responsible for any of this , Zach . Remember that .
Zach : Let Kendall go . Come on , this is between you and me . It has nothing to do with her . She did nt do anything wrong . You can kill me if you want --
Kendall : No -- no , no !
Zach : Let my wife live , ok ?
Alexander : I would have considered setting Kendall free until you wrestled this thing from my hands . You wanted to control your wife s fate ? Well , now you do . Regretting your decision now , Alex ? But if I kill you while you re holding it , you ll have to let go , and into Kendall s bloodstream goes that drug , straight into her heart . You die , Kendall dies , too .
Zach : And then what , Dad ? You kill me , what are you going to do then ? That s everything you lived for . And then no more vengeance . Nothing left .
Alexander : Huh , on the contrary . The future looks very bright for your old man . Too bad you wo nt be around to see it .
Zach : Yeah ? What are you going to do ?
Alexander : I m still very much impressed with the sort of man that Ryan is at his core .
Zach : You re going to make him your son ?
Alexander : No , that would never work . But with the help of this beautiful woman that you and he love so dearly -- you ve given me hope again , Kendall . If ever there was a woman worthy of bearing the Cambias progeny , it s you . It s a shame that you have to die .
Zach : I told you I will take what s coming to me . Let her go . Take that thing off her neck .
Alexander : Thanks to you , I ll still be able to live out my dream . I ll still have Cambias .
Kendall : No . No , not Miranda . No !
Alexander : Michael s spawn ? Oh , no . I m thinking of a very strong and handsome little boy we all know and love .
Kendall : No , no ! My God , no !
Zach : Do nt you even think it .
Alexander : I m sorry to see you go , Kendall , but at least you know that your progeny will be well provided for .
Kendall : You stay the hell away from my son .
Alexander : Oh , yes . I m going to take your son from Ryan and raise him as my own .
Barbara : Sean -- Sean , who s your pretty friend ?
Colby : Hey , I m Colby Chandler .
Barbara : Colby Chandler -- you must be Adam s daughter . Nice to meet you . I am Barbara Montgomery , Sean s mother . I used to work for your dad many moons ago .
Colby : Oh , wow , I never knew that .
Barbara : Sean , is nt it time to get ready to go to school ? I can pack you a lunch if you d like .
Erica : You just said yourself , you have so much to be grateful to Josh for . For saving your life . For hiding you . I mean , Josh really went all out to create this -- this hospital room out of nowhere .
Babe : But it was nt just Josh . Zach and Kendall , Jeff -- your husband , Jack -- they all had a hand in it .
Erica : Yes , I know that . But it was Josh who s been with you day and night . He s been by your side . It s Josh who ultimately is --
Babe : You want to know if Josh and I have a future ? More than just friends ?
Erica : Do you ?
Babe : Like I said before , the only thing I can think about right now is seeing my mama and my son .
Krystal : Oh . Oh , Babe --
Babe : Mama ? I m ok , I m alive .
Krystal : It s really you ? My God -- you re alive ! You re alive ! Oh .
Babe : I m ok . I m right here . Oh , I hate that they had to do that to you .
Krystal : No , no , no , sweetheart , they had to . They had to make everybody believe that you were dead to keep you safe .
Babe : You must have just gone crazy .
Krystal : Oh -- I m not mad . I m not mad . I m dancing . I got my sweet baby doll back .
Josh : Well ?
Erica : Well , what ? I knew you were coming back . I -- I had to talk to you . I had to find out if you had any news about Kendall . I mean , I ve been worried sick about her .
Josh : Well , so have I , but unfortunately , I have nt heard anything . Are you sure that s the only reason why you came here ?
Erica : Look , Josh , you know that if I were asked to handpick a woman for you to spend the rest of your life with , that Babe Chandler would nt even make the prelims .
Josh : Thought so .
Erica : No , please let me finish . Every nerve in my body is twitching , because I have to say this . But there s no getting around it . I m trying to accept Babe Chandler . I m trying , because I know how much you love her . And I know if I do nt accept her , that I could lose you . And I ca nt risk that . I may have lost one child already .
Kendall : I told you to stay the hell away from my son , you bastard . Ryan will kill you before you lay a hand on Spike .
Alexander : Ryan has no more power over me than you do ! Back on your knees .
Kendall : No , do nt -- do nt , Zach ! Do nt give him one damn thing . Do nt .
Alexander : Do it . When will you learn ? There are consequences to your actions . You were supposed to let go of that trigger . You would kill the woman you love and live with that for the rest of your life , however short that might be . Only then , might you realize what you ve done to me . But no more of that . I will kill Kendall , and you ll watch her die , knowing that I always win .
Kendall : Zach !
Kendall : Zach , Zach , Zach --
Zach : Do nt -- do nt --
Kendall : Zach -- Zach -- Zach , watch out ! Watch out !
Alexander : Oh !
Zach : No !
Kendall : Zach ! Zach , watch out Zach -- Zach ! Zach , watch out ! Zach ! Zach --
Zach : Get up !
Kendall : Zach , watch out .
Alexander : Oh !
Kendall : Zach !
Zach : You killed Erin , you killed Simone . You killed Dixie , and you killed my mom . Now I m going to kill you .
Zach : How does it feel , huh ?
Kendall : Zach , no
Zach : How does it feel ? You defend yourself -- I m in charge now !
Kendall : Zach , I --
Zach : I decide who lives or dies ! You made me what I am !
Tad : Zach !
Ryan : Zach , get off !
Zach : Get off me !
Tad : Stop , get off !
Zach : Get off of me !
Tad : No , no , no , come here .
Ryan : No , Kendall !
Tad : Come on ! Hey , hey !
Kendall : Ryan , please !
Ryan : Oh , my God . Oh , my God . Are you ok ? What did he do to you ?
Kendall : I m ok .
Ryan : How is this -- I mean , what is it ? What s going on ?
Zach : Hey , I m not finished yet !
Tad : Yes . Listen to me . It s finished . It s finished .
Zach : He killed Dixie . His life is nt worth saving !
Tad : No , no ! It s not , but yours is .
Ryan : I have you now . It s all right .
Kendall : Ryan , Ryan , listen to me , listen to me . The man is sick . He s sick , ok ? He threatened Spike . He threatened to --
Ryan : If my son s name so much as crosses your lips , I swear to you I will finish you myself . How could you do it ? How ? How could you take my only sister ?
Alexander : You disappointed me ! You let Alex have Kendall , and you were supposed to keep her away from him . You failed me !
Josh : Erica , I trust Jack , Ryan , and Zach to keep Kendall safe , and so should you . We re not the only ones who care about her . And if I had the chance to save Kendall the way I saved Babe , I would ve jumped at it . You have to know that , but it just so turned out that -- that Kendall s fate was out of my hands . But saving Babe -- that I could do .
Erica : And you have done such a wonderful job . I m just so worried about your future .
Josh : My future is with Babe .
Babe : How is Little Adam ?
Krystal : Oh .
Babe : How s my baby ?
Krystal : He misses you .
Babe : He does nt think that I m -- right ?
Krystal : No , no . Nobody s had the heart to tell him , thank the Lord . J.R. is planning on telling him tonight when he gets back from out of town . He s off trying to nail the guy who s responsible for all of this .
Babe : How are you going to stop J.R. from telling him ? You ca nt let him know I m alive .
Krystal : I ll figure out a way to keep J.R. from telling Little A without tipping the truth . I know about the blackmail . J.R. threatened to tell Adam the truth about my baby .
Stuart : Oh . Uh -- I like to come in here , too , when J.R. s not around . That room full of Babe s stuff , I -- I can almost make my brain believe that -- that she never left .
Adam : I m worried about Krystal , Stuart .
Stuart : Yeah . When someone you love dies , it hurts so bad you -- you almost -- almost wish you d never met them , so your heart would nt hurt so badly . When Cindy -- when Cindy died , I thought I was never going to enjoy life again . And when a child dies , it must be ten times worse . It s going to take Krystal some time to -- to accept that . That s what you re worried about , is nt it ?
Adam : The light in Krystal s eye , that fire that I fell in love with -- it s gone . I keep telling myself that she s grieving and it ll come back when little Charlotte s born , but I -- in my heart , I know that that s going to happen . I love Krystal more than I ve ever loved any other woman . And I feel so damned helpless . For the first time in my life , I do nt know what to do or how to fix it .
Stuart : I m so happy to hear that . No . It -- no , it -- no offense , Adam , but -- but a lot of times when you try to fix stuff , you make it even worse --usually . Well maybe -- maybe if you do nt know what to do , it would be a good idea to just do nt do anything . And maybe that s exactly what Krystal needs , is you . She just needs you , Adam .
Ryan : Whoa , whoa , whoa . No , no , Kendall , please no , no . Just -- just let Tad talk to him , please -- not yet .
Tad : Just listen to me , ok ? Zach , listen to me -- hey , listen , ok ? If you do it , if you go through with it , it ll feel good for 30 seconds , and then it wo nt . Because then it hits you -- what you did , what it means . He will never leave you for the rest of your life . He ll be with you every minute of every day in your head , in your mirror , in your dreams . Hey -- you ll never be free of him , ever .
Tad : You got to believe me . I know what I m talking about . You kill your father , it would be the worst mistake you ve ever made .
Annie : But there are good reasons . Look , look , if I had to draw a picture of the perfect dad for Emma , Ryan is it . If I had to list all of the qualities I want in a guy , totally Ryan .
Julia : Oh .
Annie : But -- but I so was nt prepared for those worlds to collide the way that they did . And I do nt want Emma to get her hopes up in case things do go south . You know ? Plus , can I ever really trust that Ryan wants to be with me , or he just wants to be closer to her ?
Julia : Ok , that s a valid concern .
Annie : Really ?
Julia : But I still say go for it .
Di : Me , too .
Annie : Even if it means hurting Emma if things do nt work out ?
Di : That could be rough .
Julia : You have a point there . But Ryan is such a great guy .
Di : Hmm , that s true .
Julia and Di : Go for it
Di : Yeah . I mean , but , you know , we are both wusses here , so --
Annie : Also , you re not in love with a man who is emotionally attached to someone else .
Tad : No , no , take it easy . Come on . Zach , your father s already taken enough from you . Do nt let him take your soul . He ll be punished . Alex will be punished , I promise you , but you punish yourself by becoming like him . If you do that , he wins -- that s what he s wanted all along . My friend , you got an awful lot to live for . You ve got Kendall . She s here , she s safe -- you understand ? You beat him as his own game . The only reason she s alive is because you beat him . You got a wife and a son that depend on you -- do you know what a blessing that is ? Do nt let them down , because of that useless sack of garbage in there . He lost , you won . Let that be enough .
J.R. : Did my wife plead for her life ? What was the look in her eyes when she died ? Was she terrified ? Mmm ? Babe did nt want to die . You re going to spend the rest of your pathetic life screaming to be put out of your misery . And I m going to see to it , for my mother and for Babe .
Krystal : You should know J.R. is just full of regret since he lost you . And I -- he was the one that told me that he what he was going to do , and how he feels horrible . He swore , he swore he would never , ever tell Adam that Tad is my baby s father -- he swore . I do nt think it s just because he feels guilty , either . I think he loves you .
Babe : And I believe that he loves me . I also do nt think that he s capable of trusting me , of trusting anyone , so when it comes down to it , that love means nothing . I ll spend my entire life looking over my shoulder , wondering when he will come up with some new threat .
Krystal : I -- I deny that it s going to be hard for you to ever trust J.R. , but I do know one thing -- the way J.R. s feeling right now , I do nt think he s able to go on without you .
Babe : When J.R. finds out that I m alive , he ll just come up with some new reason to resent me or -- or suspect me and I ca nt go back to J.R. , Mama . He s finally pushed me too far . And I ve made up my mind . It s really finally over .
Erica : I do nt want to lose you , Josh . I do nt want you to leave Pine Valley .
Josh : Well , that s not an answer .
Erica : Look , if I can accept Kendall s marriage to Zach and Bianca s infatuation with that strange musician , I m sure that I could find a way to tolerate Babe Chandler .
Josh : And you wo nt go blabbing that she s still alive to anyone ?
Erica : I have nt yet . But , Josh , what s going to happen when the killer is caught ? I mean , Babe is going to have to come out of hiding . Her husband is going to find out that she s alive .
Josh : We ll deal with that when the time comes . Trust me .
Erica : Josh , what are nt you saying ?
Josh : This has to be handled just right , Erica . You know the Chandlers . Nothing s easy when it comes to them .
Colby : Sean and I have been friends for a while now . You got a pretty cool son .
Barbara : Oh , I think so , too . Well , I think both of you are surely late for school now .
Sean : Teacher conferences . We have the day off .
Barbara : Really ? Oh . Well , I was going to go shopping at Lacey s all day , but if you re not going to be going to school , what about the three of us see a movie ?
Sean : No . We have a project to work on . But you should go to Lacey s -- really .
Barbara : Ok , if you re sure . You two behave now . Nice to meet you , Colby .
Colby : You , too . You never told me your mom was in town .
Sean : It s not that big a deal .
Colby : Hey , no . She s the reason why you re suddenly messed up , is nt she ?
Babe : It wo nt take long . At first , J.R. will be relieved that I m alive , but then it s going to start eating at him that we kept him in the dark .
Krystal : It ll tick him off even more that Josh was the one taking care of you .
Babe : And pretty soon he ll be so furious , he ll even forget that he missed me and wanted me back . That -- that is just who J.R. is . He ll end up hating me , and we ll be right back to where we were -- with nothing to stop him from telling Adam that the baby you re carrying is Tad s .
Erica : Adam . Well , how nice to see you . Come with me .
Zach : It s ok . It s over . Hey , Dad ? Only lesson learned today -- Kendall and I are going to be happy for the rest of our lives .
Krystal ( to Adam ) : I wish J.R. loved Babe the way Josh does .
Adam : When Josh did love Babe , right ?
Erica ( to Babe ) : Come on , get dressed . I ll take you home . Do nt tell me you re planning to continue with this ? Alexander ( to J.R. , Adrian , and Tad ) : I made fools of you for months . Why should I stop now ?

### Dialogue:
Quinn : I ca nt believe you thought I would fall into bed with you .

Quinn : What , you re leaving ? You re not going anywhere .
Wyatt : Did , uh -- did my mom call you ?
Eric : Uh , no , I got a text and a photo , though .
Wyatt : Same as me ? From the --
Eric : Yeah , that everything s going all right . It was really good on the stage , Ridge said some nice things . Yeah .
Wyatt : [ Scoffs ] How long you think that s gon na last ?
Eric : [ Laughs ] We ll see .
Wyatt : You know what I just realized ? It s just you and me tonight . You know what I m thinking ...
Eric : Uh , review the security footage ? See if there s any raccoons outside ?
Wyatt : You really do that ?
Eric : [ Laughing ] No .
Wyatt : No , I m talking bachelor party , dude ! Break out the brews , bring on the women !
Eric : No , are nt you forgetting something , though ?
Wyatt : Chips and salsa ?
Eric : Um ...
Wyatt : Hmm ?
Eric : Neither one of us is a bachelor .
Wyatt : Right . [ Laughs ] Maybe not . Sure feels like my marriage is only missing one or two more nails in that coffin . [ Clears throat ]
Liam : Come home with me tonight .
Steffy : Liam ...
Liam : You know you want to .
Steffy : The decision s been made , and I know we both hate it ...
Liam : Just for tonight . Not a big packing project . Just tonight . Just tonight .
Steffy : I ca nt say one thing and do another , okay ? Yeah , Quinn s out of town , but Wyatt s still here , and I do nt want to do that to him .
Liam : Well ... you never know . Quinn could come home with a whole new attitude .
Steffy : Is it time for Quinn to become a brand - new person yet again ?
Liam : I mean , she s in san Francisco . It s a magical city . She could fall under its spell . She could think better of coming home at all .
Steffy : As much as I want to come home with you ...
Liam : [ Sighs ]
Steffy : Until the divorce is final , this is where I m sleeping .
Liam : Okay . Okay . You know something , you never used to be such a stickler . I m just saying .
Steffy : I m -- I m thinking about Wyatt s feelings . Why are nt you ?
Liam : You want the long version or the short version ?
Steffy : [ Sighs ] Okay , fine . Fine . You do nt agree . I m just asking you to respect my decision .
Liam : And I m asking you -- are you sure it s even your decision ?
Eric : Your mother s convinced that Steffy s gon na change her mind before the waiting period s over .
Wyatt : My mother s been convinced of a great many things over the years .
Wyatt : You should ask her to show you what she bought to protect us from the collapse of civilization for y2k .
Eric : [ Chuckles ]
Wyatt : [ Clears throat ]
Katie : Hi !
Wyatt : Hey , our neighbor from next door !
Eric : Hello !
Katie : Is it too late to come by ?
Wyatt : No , no , I just got done with work , and you know Eric , he s a party animal .
Katie : I ve heard .
Eric : What is that ?
Katie : [ Laughs ] Will was playing down by the property line and he found this , and I figured it might belong to someone in your family .
Eric : [ Laughs ] Look , it is ours -- it s got RF on it ! This has been there for like 35 years !
Katie : Yeah , used to be ridge s , I guess .
Eric : Yeah ! Oh , wait till Ridge and Quinn get back from san Francisco .
Katie : I m sorry , what ? What was that ?
Wyatt : The design conference up north .
Eric : It seems it s already done wonders for their relationship .
Katie : [ Chuckling ] Huh .
Quinn : You realize that life as you know it is over , right ? Because Eric is gon na strip you of everything that goes with the Forrester name .
Ridge : No , Quinn . You re so silly . You do nt really believe that , do you ?
Quinn : Oh , Ridge . You re so charming . But you got caught . You re not gon na charm your way out of this one .
Katie : So , you thought that by sending Ridge and Quinn to the design symposium , they would stop , um , hating each other s guts ?
Eric : Well , is it really that far - fetched ?
Katie : Uh ... [ Laughs ]
Eric : Well , Quinn has the ability to unite people .
Wyatt : Yeah , unite em all against her , maybe . [ Laughing ] Come on .
Katie : Oh , did you get a new painting ?
Wyatt : Yeah , uh , turned out to be a little premature , though .
Katie : Uh , can I take a look ?
Eric : Sure .
Katie : [ Gasps ] Does she always have to look so beautiful ?
Wyatt : [ Chuckles ] Well , Eric was thinking of a future day where that portrait would hang where her grandmother s was .
Eric : A day when she might live here with her family , with her husband and her children .
Katie : With Liam ?
Wyatt : I m still her husband , Katie .
Eric : I invited her to come live here with us .
Katie : [ Scoffs ]
Eric : I see you have an opinion about that .
Wyatt : I want to hear it . You ve known Steffy a lot longer than I have , so let s hear it .
Katie : Well , I just do nt think it s smart to pressure her into anything .
Liam : Listen , they teamed up and they did a number on you , Steffy , dangling the prospect of being Eric s heir apparent , only if -- only if you stay married to Wyatt .
Steffy : No --
Liam : That is messed up .
Steffy : It was nt like that , and I said no .
Liam : Steffy , you ca nt tell me that the idea of you being chosen over your father , over rick , over everyone else , does nt wield some power for you .
Steffy : Liam , why did we have to pick tonight to just rehash all of this ? Why ?
Liam : [ Sighs ] I do nt know . Partly because I miss you . And partly because I know that these allegiances between Eric , Wyatt , and Quinn can fall apart just as suddenly as they were formed .
Steffy : What makes you say that ?
Liam : Just a feeling .
Quinn : You want me to freshen that up for you ? There you go . The whole idea was to get me drunk , right ? I mean , this little cat - and - mouse game you got going -- you realize it s over , right ?
Ridge : I think we both know you better than that .
Quinn : [ Scoffs ] That s -- that s almost comical , considering how wrong you have me .
Ridge : Do I ? Maybe I do . Maybe you re not the scheming black widow that I thought you were . Maybe you re just this insatiable black hole of need . All you needed was for me to flirt with you for a little while , and those big eyes are staring back at me .
Quinn : Okay . Come on . Come on , rich boy . Seduce who you think I am because that was the whole idea , right ?
Ridge : You know , I do nt think I have it in me . And yes , maybe you re smarter than I thought you were .
Quinn : [ Scoffs ]
Ridge : You caught me this time .
Quinn : This time . Wait . Whoa , whoa , whoa . You think there s gon na be a next time ?
Ridge : Of course there s gon na be a next time ! Because whatever you hate today , you re gon na love tomorrow . That s how you roll .
Quinn : Oh , man , see , you -- you remind me of a shrink I once knew .
Ridge : You had a shrink ? You tried mental health ? Why would you stop ?
Quinn : Oh , you know what , see , cause the thing is this -- people tell you all the time that you need help . [ Laughs ] So you either tell them to go to hell or you give it a try . And I learned a lot . I learned a lot from this guy . But here s the one thing that , um ... that I took away more than anything else . Nobody knows anything about anyone .
Ridge : I can see that .
Quinn : Yeah , well -- caveat , because that being said , there s a couple things that I know about you . You are just like everyone else . You do nt want me to have anything . You want me to know my place . You want me to beg . Love me ! Oh , love me ! See how special I am . Mnh - mnh . No . No , those -- those blinds are drawn . Nobody gets to see inside .
Katie : Steffy feels like she s been injured , and ... rightly so . She s not ready to forgive and forget . I mean , has she said anything like that ?
Eric : How have Wyatt and I hurt Steffy ?
Wyatt : Yeah .
Katie : [ Sighs ] I -- I should nt be talking about this .
Wyatt : No , no , something you re saying sounds right , so come on . I want to hear it .
Katie : Okay , well , to be blunt and honest , your mother and your wife pretty much kidnapped Liam when he was mentally impaired and fed him this story that was nt true and -- and you would nt be married to Steffy if Quinn had nt interfered . And I m -- I m sorry . I m sorry . I m not trying to hurt you . I m not . I -- I know how much you love her , and I think that she loves you , too , and that your marriage was real , but -- you ca nt ignore her loss . I m sure she feels like a part of her life has been hijacked , and she ca nt just forget about that . It s not fair .
Wyatt : There s enough unfairness to go around . Trust me .
Katie : I know .
Wyatt : But you re not wrong about where it started .
Liam : Just thought I felt it vibrate .
Steffy : Expecting a message ?
Liam : Uh , just working on something remotely .
Steffy : Well , should you go , then ?
Liam : I do nt know . Should I ?
Steffy : Eventually . But I do nt want you to move . Mmm . [ Chuckles ] Hey , I want you know that , um ... this -- it wo nt always be between us .
Liam : What ?
Steffy : What Quinn did and that I was married to your brother .
Liam : Oh .
Steffy : Yeah .
Liam : Yeah , I -- I know . I mean , I suppose it ll always be a part of us , but ... not between us , no . Boy , this thing sure is hanging on , is nt it ?
Steffy : [ Sighs ] Yeah . Yeah . Maybe I ll just cut this finger off , but then I ll have to cut this one off , and then it ll more symmetrical .
Liam : No , no , no , no . I need all your parts . Just have to , um , find a ring big enough to cover up what s left .
Quinn : Either give me that other key card , or just go to the other suite and go sleep it off .
Ridge : No . I might miss something .
Quinn : Nothing s going to happen .
Ridge : But what if all of a sudden you re overcome with desire for me ?
Quinn : Oh , God . It s -- it s amazing to think that you re made of the same stuff as your father .
Ridge : I m not . Not at all . And this usually only comes up in heated conversation , but ... the stuff I m made of is ... an Italian blowhard billionaire . Only I was nt adopted . I was passed off as the real thing . So IM ... what do you call that ? I m an imitation Forrester .
Quinn : Men think where their DNA comes from and where it goes is so ... terribly important . See , I actually -- I knew about the accident of your birth . But it s easy to forget , since you ve made yourself over into the definition of what a Forrester is . [ Scoffs ] Poor Thorne is biologically the real deal , but he ca nt get out from under your shadow . That s how you got your revenge , is nt it ? I mean , you made them all over in your own image , not the other way around .
Ridge : Now , you grew up without a father , did nt you ?
Quinn : Says who ?
Ridge : You ca nt have mine .
Wyatt : And I m not saying I m a sore loser .
Katie : Well , getting a divorce does nt make you a loser .
Wyatt : Well , it does in the literal sense , if you do nt get what you want . But just asking Steffy to move in with us , into her family s home , and then get shot down like that ? It -- that stung .
Eric : She did nt say never .
Wyatt : She basically did , Eric . I mean , come on . [ Scoffs ] I ve -- I did nt kidnap him ! I felt that our marriage was real .
Katie : The feelings were real .
Wyatt : Exactly . But luckily I had a true - blue friend to cheer me up -- Mr. Tequila !
Katie : I ve heard that drinking alone is not always a great idea .
Wyatt : Yeah . Well , anything you do with your mother s wholesome , right ? I re- introduced her to Mr. Tequila . It got her to open up .
Quinn : [ Sighs ]
Ridge : You want my father . You want our name . You want our money , our position . You want to take my mother s place . And you want my daughter and her future .
Quinn : She made vows .
Ridge : Under false pretenses .
Quinn : My son deserves to be happy .
Ridge : Then let him figure it out ! Do nt be such a control freak . You ca nt hand somebody happiness ! The same way you ca nt hand them health .
Quinn : It s so easy for the one who has all the money and all the power to call me greedy and a control freak . When have you ever wanted for anything ? You just take whatever you want . Whatever you see , snap your fingers and you have it . And then when you re done with that , your roving eye looks to see what you want a taste of next . Is that -- is that what it was gon na be with me ? I mean , once I realized ... he s not so bad . He just needs to be loved .
Ridge : No , it was nt gon na be that .
Quinn : [ Scoffs ] Liar .
Ridge : I was gon na take a picture . Nothing crazy . I was gon na send it to my dad , to show him how wrong he is about you .
Quinn : Wow . You do nt care who you hurt . Even if it s you . And , of course ... it had to be sexual . Because that s how men win and women lose . We lose if we love it , we lose if we hate it . We lose if we say yes just a little bit too soon , right ? And what does it matter anyway ? I mean , it s rarely more pleasurable than a hot shower , and it barely lasts as long . But that s the only game that men want to play because we always lose . Especially if we want ... just a little bit more . Like lunch , right ? Or cab fare or ... or kindness . Because it s fun for you , right ? It s fun to hold those little things from us . But you do nt win big until you realize how I hurt and how I do nt want be alone . That s when you get to sit back and go yeah ! I - I got her , I used her for everything she was good for . You know exactly what I m talking about . You re Ridge Forrester . You re the ultimate womanizer . You get together with women so you can do that , so you can get them into bed and make them a conquest , and then you just get to drop them ! I ve been that woman ! So -- do nt . Do nt you sit there in judgment of me ! Of who I am , where I ve come from , and what I ve had to endure ! Because you -- you can go to hell , Ridge Forrester , if hell will have you , because I wo nt ! And now ... you can go .
### Summary:
| Quinn can not believe Ridge would ever think she would fall in bed with him . He agrees he would do anything even to harm himself to get her out of his life . She says he is charming but this time he got caught . He wo nt get out of this . Katie listens as Eric explains that by sending Ridge and Quinn off together maybe they would quit hating each other s guts . Wyatt says Katie has known Steffy longer than he has so he wants to hear her opinion of Steffy staying with him over Liam . Liam tells Steffy that he understands she wants to wait before living together but he also knows these alliances between Quinn , Ridge and Wyatt can be overturned ever so easily . Quinn quips that Ridge thought he could seduce her . He says maybe not this time but who knows tomorrow . She says she knows some things about him , like he thinks he is special and wants people like herself to beg him . But those blinds are closed and no one sees inside . Katie tells Wyatt that she does not want to hurt him , but Quinn kidnapped Liam while he was impaired and then she was responsible for Wyatt marrying Steffy . He can not just overlook and forget that . Steffy laments to Liam that it wo nt always be this way with Wyatt and Quinn in their lives . Quinn tells Ridge that it is amazing that he is made of the same stuff as his father . She wants him to take the key card and go to the other suite . She laughs that poor Thorne can not get out of Ridge s shadow no matter what he does . Wyatt says he does not think of himself as a loser just because he thought his marriage was real and now Steffy is turning him down . Ridge tells Quinn that she wants his father and to take his mother s place . She is a control freak . She asks when is the time he ever wanted anything and then his roving eye looks toward something else . He said all he was going to do was take a picture to send to his dad . She says sure , and it had to be sexual . That is the way men win and women always lose . Sometimes they just want lunch or cab fare . He does that time and time again , always getting what he wants . But now it is her turn to say it is time for him to go . |

### Dialogue:
Stephanie : Ridge ?
Jackie : If you re right , if Stephanie trumped up that heart attack , as sure as I m standing here --
Brooke : Well , I still have trouble believing that Mark would claim --
Jackie : Why ? He is the darling of the medical staff . He s Stephanie s personal physician . Who would question him ? I mean , he tinkers with a few machines , intercepts the lab reports , falsifies a few records . And I m sure he said to himself , Mark , you do this one questionable thing , and your career is set for life . Who s it gon na hurt ?
Brooke : Can you get him to say that ?
Jackie : Stephanie has her means of persuasion , and I have mine .
Ridge : It may drape right , but how will it feel in six hours ?
Ava : Mrs. Forrester , so good to see you up and around .
Stephanie : Well , thank you , Ava . It s good to be seen up and around . The doctor said a little gentle exercise will build my strength up .
Ridge : I think kicking in the pool is what he had in mind , Mother . Ava , let s do this tomorrow , okay ?
Ava : Of course .
Stephanie : Bye - bye . I know you re angry with me .
Ridge : You got what you wanted , Mother .
Stephanie : So did you , and do nt forget it .
Ridge : Really ? Did I really ?
Dante : Hey .
Massimo : Ah , well . It certainly is nice to see somebody using the pool .
Dante : No , grazie .
Massimo : Ah , okay . It costs me a fortune to heat that damn pool . But luckily , Dante , I have a fortune . You know , you could use it every day if you would stay . You could use the tennis court . You could use the stables . Whatever you want .
Dante : Massimo , you re great friend , and a great host . But this gallery arrangement -- if it s gon na work out , I m gon na need a studio space .
Massimo : Space , space , that s all I got is space , rattling around in this house by myself .
Dante : I have a feeling that s gon na change anytime .
Massimo : Ah .
Nick : Hey , pop ! Oh . The sculptor . Oh . Looks like you ve been doing too many push - ups out by the pool . You re dripping on the rug .
Dante : Nice to see you , too .
Nick : Did you actually use the pool , or is this the way you travel ?
Massimo : I have been trying to talk him into staying , that s what I ve been doing . But , at least he s gon na be in Los Angeles . He s had some meetings with a few galleries .
Nick : Well , I know he s a smooth talker .
Massimo : Dominick --
Nick : He lied about knowing Taylor .
Massimo : He was trying to protect her privacy .
Nick : Oh , is that what it was ?
Dante : I m gon na go .
Massimo : No , no , no , no , no . Do nt you dare . He knows exactly the way I expect our guests to be treated here .
Nick : These are the leases on the new tankers . I did nt like the terms , so I kicked them back . You may want to look at them .
Massimo : Okay , that s fine . I m gon na review these in my study . Excuse me , Dante .
Dante : Want something to drink ?
Nick : Some life you sculptors have .
Dante : Here , in case you re worried about the rug .
Nick : Thanks . Last time I saw you , you were ready to catch a flight .
Dante : I missed it .
Nick : I know . How was lunch with my fiancé ?
Dante : Bridget and I had a delightful afternoon . In fact , that s when I decided to stay .
Brooke : Be careful . Decide how far you want to go , and then just draw the line .
Jackie : Oh , Brooke , I would do almost anything to expose Stephanie , but not that . I want my husband back . Now , would you call me in , say , three hours , a distraction ? You know , I might need rescuing .
Brooke : Sure .
Jackie : Thanks .
Brooke : I think you re gon na need this , too -- my digital recorder . I carry it for work . There s menu , and record . That s it .
Jackie : Okay .
Brooke : Just make sure you get mark to say something . Something that he ca nt unsay .
Jackie : Wish me luck .
Brooke : Luck never worked before . Let s just hope that this time , Stephanie finds herself outmatched .
Stephanie : You went over to Brooke s after you lambasted me , did nt you ?
Ridge : Go home , Mother , and recuperate . Brooke will be fine . She does nt need any of us .
Stephanie : I doubt she really feels that way .
Ridge : All these years , and you still do nt know her at all . You want to know what was said ? I told her that I handled everything very poorly . I told her that I let you play me like a violin , and my feelings for her are still as strong as ever .
Stephanie : But you went home to Taylor , did nt you ?
Ridge : Yeah , I went home last night .
Stephanie : Then the worst is over . And you ve weathered it . I knew you d have second thoughts , cause that s just how you are . Honey , wo nt you allow yourself to be happy , please ?
Ridge : Thomas is due here in a couple minutes . I need to talk to him privately .
Stephanie : Tom .
Thomas : Hey . Hey , grandma , how you feeling ?
Stephanie : Fine , sweetheart . Your father s waiting for you .
Thomas : Yeah , okay . Good to see you .
Stephanie : Good to see you .
Thomas : Hey , Dad .
Ridge : Come on in .
Thomas : Can you believe grandma ?
Ridge : Believe her ?
Thomas : Yeah . She s , like , walking around by herself in the best mood in the world . Which , apparently , you are not in .
Ridge : What I want to know is , when were you gon na tell me about this ?
Ridge : Tell him Taylor and I insist . All right , Massimo . Oh , yeah . Well , what are sons for ? Okay , bye - bye . So your grandfather Eric suggests design school . Is that so far beneath you ?
Thomas : You ve been my design school , you know ? Plus , I did nt see me learning a whole lot here delivering coffee as an intern . So , when spectra was offering me the chance to go design a new teen line --
Ridge : You should ve brought your contract to me first .
Thomas : So , you re saying you re okay with it ?
Ridge : No . Go to work in an office like sally spectra s , a knock - off house , and you learn bad habits , which you ll just have to unlearn once you come work for us .
Thomas : I kept looking for the right time to tell you , but --
Ridge : Yeah , I figured it was something like that . Listen , the right time to talk to me about anything is anytime . Okay ? I know it seems like I ve got a lot on my mind , but you are one of those main things . Understood ?
Thomas : Okay . I m sorry .
Ridge : Well , I m sorry if it seems like I have nt been paying attention lately , because I have . Anything else you d like to tell me about ?
Thomas : Like what ?
Ridge : Oh , I do nt know , maybe just something , maybe , about Gaby ?
Jackie : For you , my darling . [ Doorbell rings ] I m coming .
Mark : Hi .
Jackie : Hello . Oh , how very thoughtful . Come in .
Mark : I hope you did nt go to too much trouble .
Jackie : Oh , it s no trouble . I called Marcello s . Everyone who lives in towers who caters call Marcello s . Why do nt we sample that lovely wine you brought .
Mark : I hope it s good . The guy at the wine shop said it was -- won some kind of prize .
Jackie : You know , you mentioned when you were here earlier that life had been very stressful lately . I m sure that Stephanie alone kept you hopping . Why do nt we sit down ?
Mark : I ll admit , I ve had easier weeks .
Jackie : Oh . Oh , what are you wearing ? Your cologne ?
Mark : Oh , Jabot for men .
Jackie : So masculine . So masculine .
Mark : Thanks .
Jackie : What should we toast to ? Ah -- I know . Stephanie Forrester , and the man responsible for her health .
Massimo : Dante . I just spoke to ridge . He and Taylor will not take no for an answer . They do nt use the house in Mmalibu . You ll be on the beach , you ll have privacy . You ll have plenty of room for a studio .
Nick : I m sure he does nt want to start freeloading off the Forresters .
Dante : Actually , sounds great .
Massimo : I thought it would . So , you re gon na stay for dinner ?
Dante : If you insist .
Massimo : I insist . I will tell the cook . Dominick ?
Nick : Some of us work . Well , I guess you re Forrester s problem now . I m sure you and his wife will pick up from where you left off , wherever that was . Enjoy your push - ups at the beach .
Dante : Give Bridget my best .
Stephanie : Brooke .
Brooke : Hard at work already ?
Stephanie : Just waiting for Eric .
Brooke : I ll find him for you . Oh , I m sure Mark would like to see you home in bed .
Stephanie : Oh , my heart feels stronger than ever . How s yours ?
Thomas : Dad , I m not a little kid anymore . Do nt I get a private life ?
Ridge : I m not objecting to Gaby , all right ? I m not asking for details . It s a big improvement over Amber , that s for damn sure . I just hope you take it slow this time , you know ? If it s right , then you should nt have to rush it . That s the sure way to mess it up .
Thomas : I guess there is one detail you should know about .
Nick : Little question / answer time , Casanova . Ever since I ve known Bridget , I ve never heard your name .
Dante : Maybe there s a reason for that .
Nick : Well , why do nt you tell me what that reason might be ?
Dante : How s this ? If Bridget felt like she needed to tell you something , I m sure she would have .
Nick : Do nt get out of line . Cause if you do , I have to fix it .
Dante : You know , you sound like that sailor when I was a kid . You eat cans of spinach , too ?
Nick : Do us a favor and just skip on up to Malibu . If the old man feels the need to speak Italian with somebody , you re more than welcome to come back and do chin - ups in the backyard for the neighbors . Until then , stay away from my fiancé .
Dante : Stay away from her mother .
Nick : What did you say ?
Dante : If Bridget is in need of company , whose fault is that ?
Massimo : Dominick , are you sure you wo nt stay for dinner ?
Nick : No . Thanks , Pop . [ Nick sniffs ] I do nt like the smell of the olive oil tonight .
Stephanie : You do nt have to be strong for me . We ve known each other too long .
Brooke : I wonder .
Stephanie : Wait , am I -- are you -- are you going to be throwing insults and incriminations at me ? I mean , I know them so well I could probably say them . But I would nt want to spoil your opportunity .
Brooke : You really should nt get yourself all agitated , Stephanie .
Stephanie : Oh , I ve never been less agitated in my life . My heart attack was my cure . It surgically removed you . You know , you just ca nt hold things in . I learned that the hard way . I understand my son came to see you . You must ve just been thrilled when you opened up that door and saw him standing there . And then I bet you were crushed when he left and went home to Taylor . Brooke , that s going to happen every time he comes to see Hope and the baby . Do nt you think the best thing for you -- for you -- would be to give up the children ? What s that look in your eye ? It s not defeat , it s -- oh , oh . That s a I m gon na get you look .
Jackie : I have to tell you , I am very old - fashioned . Doctors , they re like gods to me . I mean , the way you hold people s lives in your hands .
Mark : The pre - HMO point of view .
Jackie : But when it s somebody with so much influence and so much money , and so used to getting her way --
Mark : I do nt adjust my level of care to a patient s bank balance .
Jackie : Oh , Mark , I would never think such a thing . I mean , you strike me as , above all , dedicated .
Mark : A doctor s all I ever wanted to be .
Jackie : And dedication deserves to be rewarded . I think that you know I had an ulterior motive in inviting you here tonight .
Mark : Well --
Jackie : I want to know all about you , Mark . Your passions . Medically speaking , of course . Would you say cardiology , research --
Mark : That s two of them .
Jackie : Hmm . Well , I m thinking of contributing a rather substantial sum to university hospital for a new program , perhaps even a new wing . Oh , my -- if you would be available to chair it .
Mark : Mrs. Marone --
Jackie : Jackie .
Mark : I do nt know what to say . I had no idea you were thinking about --
Jackie : I ve been very impressed with you , Mark . Your compassion , and your skills .
Mark : That s very flattering .
Jackie : Then you would nt mind if I asked you just one slightly indiscreet question ?
Mark : Not at all .
Jackie : You re so honest . You re so honest . I mean , most of the people that I deal with , they are really , really jaded . Do you know , I think I might be able to trust again with you ?
Mark : I -- I think I know what your question is , and my answer , too .
Jackie : You do ? Then you know it s about Stephanie Forrester .

### Dialogue:

Kate : Good morning . Partner .
Eric : Here you go , Mom .
Marlena : Thank you , sweetie . Now , you did nt have to do that , though . Like when john brought me home this morning , he treated me like I was made of glass .
Eric : It s because we love you , Mom . So deal with it . Anything new on DiMera ?
Marlena : No , they re still looking for him .
Eric : You know , I meant to ask you ... did you even have an inkling that he might attack you ?
Kayla : Oh , I m sorry .
Adrienne : I m sorry .

Adrienne : No , it s okay , it s okay .
Kayla : Oh , no , no , I know this is a tough wait .
Adrienne : It is , it is . It s so weird . I m -- you know , trying to be optimistic and everything but-- I know this test is only gon na tell me whether I carry the gene that puts me at high risk for cancer but for some reason I just ... feel so alone .
Abe : Counselor .
Justin : Hey .
Abe : You do nt sound too happy .
Justin : Maybe because I m not in court making sure Chad DiMera rots in prison for the rest of his life .
Abe : So , nothing on the manhunt .
Justin : Nothing . And of course we would nt even be looking for him if we had gotten the evidence that I needed sooner .
Abe : The police did nt do their job ?
Theresa : So , I like this one . Eve ? Eve , the funeral home needs a decision on what Paige is going to , uh ... look -- hey , let s just get this over with now and then we do nt have to do it , okay ? Yeah , definitely . I like this one . I remember the day you bought it for Paige . Hmm ?
Nicole : Get out of my sight , Kate .
Kate : So hostile .
Nicole : And you are a pathetic piece of trash . You may think you can sneak your way into my company and steal--
Kate : I really do nt like listening to somebody who does nt know what she s talking about .
Brady : Excuse me , whoa , hi , good morning , ladies . What s going on here ?
Nicole : Oh , well , say hello to the bitch that turned out to be Theresa s silent partner .
Brady : Really ? Wow .
Nicole : What do you mean , wow ? Whose side are you on ?
Brady : Nicole , Nicole , Kate is a great businesswoman . And she has tons of experience , and I say good for you .
Nicole : What ?
Brady : It s a done deal , too , is nt it ?
Kate : Yes , it is .
Brady : Well , then , I suggest you put your energy into learning how to play together in the same sandbox . Listen to me . What a great dad I am , making peace on the playground like that . I m gon na go check on my son .
Kate : Uh - huh . [ Humming ]
Nicole : I do nt care what Brady says . You are out , Kate .
Kate : These are my attorneys . Call them and ask them how much I m going to sue you for if you make waves .
Eve : [ Sobbing ]
Theresa : Eve . Eve , come on . Look , we need to get through this , okay ? Okay , for Paige .
Eve : Okay . For Paige . Gosh . She did always look so beautiful in this , did nt she ?
Theresa : Yeah , she did . She looked beautiful in anything .
Eve : Oh , God .
Theresa : What ?
Eve : Oh , I just remembered that Eduardo is gon na be at that funeral tomorrow playing the grieving father .
Theresa : Yeah , what s up with that ?
Eve : Yeah . It s just that every time I-- I see him , I m just reminded how everything was a lie .
Theresa : Selfish bastard .
Eve : You know , I just-- I really thought that I would just fall apart when he walked out on us but my beautiful , strong girl , she would nt let me do that , you know , she just--
Theresa : Yeah , hey .
Eve : She was so strong . She would hug me and say , Mommy , it s okay . Do nt cry . You got me . You know ?
Theresa : She got you through it .
Eve : She got me through it , yeah , she did . Oh , now Eddie s back , she s gone , and I m alone . [ Crying ]
Will : Gabi smiles all day at everybody .
Lucas : Well , would nt you if you just got out of jail ?
Will : Hell , yeah .
Lucas : Yeah . So , any word from Sonny ? No , huh ? Listen , whatever I can do , just --just tell me , okay ? Say the word . You want me to go see him ? Do you want me to get on a plane and go to Paris and talk to--
Will : No , no .
Lucas : I will .
Will : I know you will , but please do nt . Dad , no . And Sonny needs to -- he needs to take however much time he needs and -- and he s gon na do whatever he decides to do . I really do nt want to talk about it . What about you and Adrienne ? How is that going ?
Lucas : Uh ... is Gabi going back to school ? She probably should go back to school , right ? Get an education . Probably be best for everybody , do nt you think ?
Will : Dad , why dont-- why are you trying to change the subject ? It s going that bad , huh ?
Lucas : Yeah .
Kayla : Adrienne , uh , this test will give you more than just an answer . It ll give you time . And if it turns out that you do have the genetic marker for breast cancer , you will have a slew of options to consider .
Adrienne : I know . I know I have it better than most people in this situation . It just-- why does nt it feel that way ?
Justin : Do nt get me wrong , Abe . Certain individuals may have dragged their heels , been a little too cautious . But I m in no way smearing the police department .
Abe : Good . Listen , I ca nt believe I m saying this to a Kiriakis , but do whatever it takes .
Justin : Right .
Abe : Remember , you re in charge .
Lani : I am first , yeah . Um , this is the briefing room , right ? I just wanted to make sure I was the first one here .
Abe : Oh , sorry , it s down the hall . Last door .
Lani : Really ? Ugh , I ll be -- well , this is a first for me . I just got directions from the mayor himself .
Abe : Excuse me ? Do I know you ?
Theresa : Come on , eve . Do nt tell yourself things like that , okay ? Your -- your life has nt disappeared . You -- you have all those great memories . And you ll always have those .
Eve : Where did you get that stupid drivel , Theresa ? Off some cheap sympathy card ? God . Look I -- I m sorry .
Theresa : No , I should nt have said that I--
Eve : I m sorry , no , that was awful , that was awful . You ve been great . Thank you for -- thank you for being here to help me . And , you know , I think it s just , you know , the-- the funeral and everything .
Theresa : Yeah , it s overwhelming .
Eve : Paige was everything to me and then we sit here-- we sit here and cry and beg for justice ? And what do we get , Theresa ? Nothing ! But the only way that I m gon na get justice for my daughter is to get it the way I want to get it . My way !
Theresa : Eve , come on . Dont -- dont think like that .
Eve : [ Sighs ] You re right . I , um-- I do nt even know what I m thinking half the time . Or saying . I do nt .
Theresa : Listen , why do nt I make us something to eat , all right ? When s the last time you had anything ?
Eve : And , you know , Theresa , I think I need to just , um , be alone . Gotta -- I got ta clear my head , okay ? Yeah , Ill -- Ill be fine .
Theresa : Okay .
Eve : I ll be fine .
Theresa : Okay .
Eve : It was sweet of you to be here for me .
Theresa : Hey , listen , listen . My phone s on , okay ? If you need anything .
Eve : Okay .
Theresa : Okay .
Marlena : You know , you said something earlier that s been bothering me about Chad .
Eric : The sessions you had with him ?
Marlena : Yeah . What if he were setting me up ? I mean , for an attack that would happen later on that day ? I should ve spotted that .
Eric : Any idea why you did nt ?
Marlena : No , un-- no , unless--
Eric : Mom , what ?
Marlena : Unless there was nothing to see ?
Eric : Meaning he s not guilty . You know , I do nt understand , Mom .
Marlena : I know . I do nt either . Let s talk about something pleasant , all right ? Let s talk about you .
Eric : Yeah .
Marlena : Tell me how you re doing .
Eric : Um , let s see , I lost my vocation and you know I started falling in love with a woman who turned out to be a lying manipulator and then murdered . Then I fell in love with a woman before that and she was also a lying manipulator , who turned her life around and then fell in love with someone who was my good friend . You know what , I m actually thinking about taking up some boxing lessons because I just do nt feel like I ve been beat up enough . That s about all .
Marlena : So quit joking now . And tell me the truth .
Eric : And who would that be ? My mom , or a psychiatrist ?
Marlena : Maybe both ?
Nicole : You think threatening a lawsuit is gon na stop me ? Hmm ?
Kate : Nicole , if we drag out this ownership battle for months , we re going to throw the company into bankruptcy . Which means we both lose a hell of a lot of money .
Theresa : What are you guys doing here ? I mean , together .
Nicole : There you are . You were supposed to be here waiting for me but I guess you lied about that just like you lied about Kate not being your so - called silent partner .
Theresa : Look , I did nt lie . I just did nt tell--
Nicole : You did nt ? Because where the hell were you ? Oh , did you think you could avoid me forever ? I m partner . I m important .
Theresa : Look , I was at my sister s house , okay ? Comforting her over the loss of her daughter , Paige . My niece , she was murdered . Her burial is tomorrow .
Nicole : Theresa , I m sorry . You and your sister must be , uh -- look , sometimes things come out of my mouth and , uh , I wish I could do something to make things right .
Theresa : Just try to get along , okay ?
Nicole : Excuse me ? I mean , with Kate ? Who s been a total snake ?
Kate : Nicole . This is a sad time . We need to move past it .
Nicole : Fine . All right , look , we got a company to run .
Lucas : I guess the upshot is that Adrienne wants to , uh , take one more try at keeping her family and her marriage together .
Will : But the divorce was final .
Lucas : Yeah , well , I guess when it comes to people s feelings , nothing is final .
Will : Wow . Dad , I m -- I m sorry .
Lucas : Yeah , yeah . Just stay out of it , okay ? Let s not talk about that anymore . Concentrate on Sonny . I do nt want to talk about his mother .
Will : Okay , look , I realize that things are kind of a little bit awkward now , but here s what I m thinking . Sonny gave me a million chances to fix things , and I blew every one of them . I was manipulative , I was jealous , I was insecure . Name it . But if I had just been honest from the get - go , I would not be alone right now . Nobody knows more about being alone than you . Dad , you were alone for years . Until Adrienne came along .
Lucas : Yeah .
Justin : Eve . I m sorry . You should nt have seen that . Is there something you wanted ?
Eve : Justice . How about justice ?
Justin : Eve--
Eve : Yeah , you know what ? Actually , I just came down here to lay my eyes on the piece of slime who murdered my daughter , but guess what ? I ca nt do that because you have nt caught him yet . You have nt arrested him yet .
Justin : Yes , but he will be--
Eve : Do you know what tomorrow is ? You tell me , will I get justice then when I m seeing them lower my baby into the ground ?
Justin : Eve , we will get Chad DiMera . I promise you .
Eve : Yeah , well , you better . You better find justice for my little girl , by god , or I ll find somebody who will ! Theresa : My ideas for the spring line all stem from the little black dress , which can be refreshed for the spring . Just simples lines--
Nicole : Look at those fall expenses .
Kate : Yeah , yeah , we re gon na reign those in first thing .
Theresa : Hey , guys , the spring designs . We got to get moving on this--
Kate : You know , we re working on a budget here , Theresa . If we do nt shore up the financial structure of this company , there wo nt be a spring .
Nicole : Yeah , there might not be a new year s .
Kate : Okay , so I just sent you my three - year plan , you know , I think if we start with small boutique outlets .
Nicole : No , Kate , Kate , if we get any smaller , we ll be invisible . I say that we borrow at the market and go all in .
Kate : No , we re not gon na stake our future on a roll of the dice . That does nt make any sense .
Theresa : Yeah , but listen , if we just got the right designs--
Nicole : This is nt a government program . Three years , it s just -- that s not realistic .
Kate : We need to work in--
Nicole : It s ridiculous . It s idiotic , actually .
Kate : In case there s a mistake , we have to take--
Nicole : What are you saying ? Are you saying that we re just gon na fail ?
Kate : Everything that we try is going to work--
Brady : Will you please , please , please , shut the hell up ?
Justin : Eve , listen . I do nt make promises lightly , but I m gon na make one right now . I m gon na see to it that you get justice .
Eve : Thank you . What -- I m not impressed enough ?
Justin : No . I was just remembering my family used to always take care of their business outside the law . For decades . It was always brutal . Always wrong .
Eve : Well , now you re working inside the system .
Justin : Yes , I am . And so should you . But you have to be patient .
Eve : I know I just sounded a little gangster back there in the police station . I m sorry .
Justin : It s okay . But trust me , this is gon na work out . I would never lie to you about that .
Abe : So you trained in Miami ?
Lani : Yes , sir . Two years on patrol . Sorry -- Lani . Pleased to meet you , mayor carver .
Abe : Well , it s my pleasure . So you ve obviously done your homework on Salem .
Lani : Oh , because I know you re the mayor ? No , sir . I ve known about you a long time .
Abe : Sorry ?
Lani : You were one of our 10 role models that we studied in advanced civics . I remember you were listed as aso . Always serving others . Oh , my god , that sounds like I m trying to score points . I m not .
Abe : Well , it s , uh-- it s understood . Thank you for the compliment . But you should probably get to the briefing room .
Lani : Right . I do nt want to be late on my first day . It was nice to talk to you , sir .
Abe : Thank you . Lani , excuse me , um ... are you sure we never met ?
Lani : No , sir . I d remember .
Adrienne : Oh , jeez .
Lucas : Adrienne .
Adrienne : Hey .
Lucas : Listen , I saw what you saw . You want to talk about it ?
Adrienne : You know what , um , I m fine . I think I just misread the situation , you know ? Eve just lost her daughter , for heaven s sake , and Justin -- Justin was comforting her . Letting her know that people care . That everything was gon na be done .
Lucas : All right , well , if seeing Justin with eve is nt bothering you , I believe that . But it s got ta be something . There s got ta be something going on with you . Is it me ? Is it because of what I said when I told you that you were making a mistake by giving Justin another chance ?
Adrienne : No , no . Could we just not talk about that , please ? Please ?
Lucas : Okay . Let me just say this . Whatever s going on , whatever s bothering you , I would love to help in any way I can . I mean , there was a time when we could tell each other anything . So I m here if you--
Adrienne : All right . I ll tell you . Today , Jason is here to volunteer
Brady : My son , uh , he s trying to sleep . He s upstairs . Upstairs , which is where I heard every single word you were shouting .
Theresa : I was nt shouting .
Kate : Sorry . We ll try to keep it down .
Nicole : Yes , sorry . We ll be much better .
Brady : Thank you . I m gon na check my messages .
Nicole : [ Sighs ]
Kate : So , I think we will revisit the budget later . Hopefully when we have both had time to think about it . So let s get to the design end .
Theresa : Oh , yes , finally . Okay , so--
Nicole : Honey , Theresa , would you mind getting us some coffee ?
Kate : Ugh , I d love some coffee , mm - hmm .
Theresa : Uh , yeah . I can just , uh , ring the bell for Henderson and--
Nicole : Actually , it d be a lot faster if you could just get it yourself . Okay , did you see the style magazines from last month ? I mean , I have a few here--
Kate : I do .
Nicole : Impressive , right ?
Kate : I remember those . Theresa , the coffee . Oh , absolutely . Who s the photographer ? S. Wiggins ? Do you know S. Wiggins ?
Nicole : Beats me . I mean , these look like they were shot from a spy cam on a drone .
Kate : That s totally embarrassing .
Nicole : I know .
Kate : See , what we need to do is get -- there -- see , something like that .
Nicole : I think it s the colors , the movement . That s something that I wanted to deal with today , I mean , we need a photographer who understands style .
Kate : I could nt agree more .
Nicole : Okay , so that s why I was hoping we could convince Eric to join us .
Kate : I have put out feelers to Giovanni Carpolini . We need the best , right ?
Nicole : Yes . No , I mean , I already offered Eric the job .
Kate : [ Sighs ] Nicole , we are trying to reinvigorate a dying company . This is going to be all uphill . Why would we hire a fashion photographer whose last gig was taking photographs for the hospital newsletter ?
Nicole : Well , because , I mean , he s been a little--
Kate : Look , I understand . I know he s your friend . I like him , too , but we have to be realistic . If we re going to have one opportunity to do this , we have to do it right . Look . Do nt you think we need a master ?
Nicole : Yes . I guess you re right .
Eric : It s been hard . Life s been a long , downhill run . I know , suck it up . Move on . The fact is , I just-- I m starting to feel a little confused .
Marlena : You know , there are so many constants in your life . Compassion , integrity , kindness . Things that are part of your core . So they ll always be there . You ll never feel confused . Go out there . Find some challenges and take them on . And you ll do just fine .
Eric : I should ve come to my psychiatrist sooner .
Marlena : Do that next time , okay ?
Eric : Okay . You want some more tea ?
Marlena : Uh , no , no . I m fine , thank you . But I m thinking maybe I ll just go lie down . I did nt get a lot of rest last night .
Eric : Okay , well , I ll let you get to it .
Marlena : Oh , honey .
Eric : Take care , okay ?
Marlena : You take care too .
Eric : You know , I can stay if you want . I mean , if you have any doubts about Chad not being guilty and want to talk it through .
Marlena : I do nt want to think about all that for a while , okay ? I ll text you .
Eric : Okay . Abe , hey , how are you ?
Abe : Eric , hi , hi . Marlena .
Marlena : Abe .
Eric : You know , I was just on my way out . My mom needs rest .
Abe : Well , I wo nt stay very long . Just checking on an old friend .
Eric : Good . It s nice to see you . I ll talk to you later , Mom . I love you .
Marlena : I love you . Come on in .
Abe : Thank you . What did I hear ? You think Chad DiMera is nt guilty ? You better explain that .
Eve : Justin , you always seem to make things just a little bit better , you know ? Not that I m not gon na wake up in hell tomorrow morning . I mean , if I sleep at all tonight .
Justin : Well , my phone s always on . So if there s anything you need , or if you just want to talk .
Eve : Okay .
Justin : Do nt hesitate to call .
Eve : Thanks .
Justin : Any time . Would you like me to escort you to the funeral service ?
Eve : You re so kind . Thank you . Thank you for everything .
Lucas : I m so sorry . I am so sorry you re going through this .
Adrienne : No , it s just nerve - racking , you know ? I mean , I have nt even gotten any bad news yet . When I think about so many people I ve known and I m sure you ve met , too , who were diagnosed with stage 4 cancer , and here I am worrying about myself . I have no reason to . I mean , everything could be just fine , you know ?
Lucas : Absolutely .
Adrienne : Yeah .
Lucas : I m sure it will be fine . And at least it s good news about your mother .
Adrienne : Yeah , yeah . She s doing well . Well , you know , well enough .
Lucas : Right . And if they find out that -- that you share the same gene , then--
Adrienne : There are -- there are preventative measures . [ Sighs ] Just waiting is-- oh , god , sorry , it s waiting is so , so hard .
Lucas : No , no , I know . You know what ? In that case , I think , uh , I think you need a distraction .
Adrienne : Sorry ?
Lucas : Come here . Come with me , all right ?
Adrienne : No , Lucas .
Lucas : Come on , come on .
Adrienne : No , wait .
Lucas : Come on , it s gon na be fine . No arguments .
Theresa : Okay , I got the coffee that you guys wanted . So , I was , um-- what s going on ?
Nicole : Oh , the coffee , right , sorry . No time .
Kate : I am off to make an offer to Carpolini .
Theresa : But--
Kate : And if he turns it down , then I m just going to put out feelers to the Marquette brothers .
Nicole : Okay , and while you re doing that , I will check out those three designers .
Theresa : Wait , what designers ? What the hell ? I m the designer !
Nicole : Theresa ?
Kate : Right off the bat ?
Theresa : Well , I m good . I m damn good .
Kate : You do have talent .
Theresa : Yeah .
Kate : A lot of it , actually .
Nicole : Theresa , honey , look , we put a pile of money into this company , all right ? Let s wait till it s a success and then maybe you ll get a trial . Ciao .
Theresa : What is with you people ? Look , I did nt get into this so I could go get you coffee .
Kate : Of course you did nt . You wanted to be the designer .
Theresa : Uh - huh .
Kate : But no one , and I mean no one , starts at the top . Now , we re going to be bringing in a lot of people with amazing talent and you re going to study under them , and you re going to work with them , and eventually , you ll realize that you were given the education and the chance of a lifetime . I ll talk to you soon .
Theresa : [ Sighs ] [ Grunts ] Just--
Brady : Is everything okay ?
Theresa : Do I look okay to you ?
Marlena : I am not making that assertion . What I am saying is , that it s very questionable for a person who was guilty to come looking for help .
Abe : Marlena , think . It was a very smart move . It laid the groundwork for reasonable doubt if he got caught .
Marlena : Then why did he strangle me ? Does nt that do away with reasonable doubt ? And what about making multiple appointments ? If he were planning on killing me ?
Abe : Yeah , I dont-- I do nt know . And you do nt either . But in the meantime , you can not afford to make any more mistakes .
Marlena : Excuse me ?
Abe : You do nt think it was a mistake to accept Chad as a client ? When you d agreed to do a profile on the killer for the police department ?
Marlena : He was only a person of interest then .
Abe : Look , maybe , you know , it was nt illegal , but it s clearly a breach of ethics .
Marlena : No .
Abe : [ Sighs ] Marlena , I m here as a friend . And yes , Chad is family . But I need to be objective here , as do you . So I m warning you , if he makes contact , talk him into turning himself in . If you offer him safe haven and shield him in any way , even under the guise of giving him therapy , you will be charged as an accessory .
Eve : [ Sighs ] [ Sobs ] [ Groans ] [ Sobbing ]
Adrienne : I ca nt believe it . You kidnapped me .
Lucas : Well , I had no choice . What was I supposed to do ? And the boat did its job , you know ? Did the job it was supposed to do , cause I saw you smiling halfway to sandbar island . You had a big smile on your face .
Adrienne : [ Laughing ] Okay , I smiled , I smiled . Oh , that wind on my face , and the bouncing of the waves . You are so-- you always know exactly what I need . Thank you .
Lucas : Well , uh , just-- just call me if you ever want to do it again , okay ?
Adrienne : I will .
Lucas : I m gon na go . Uh , but take care , and , um , let me know when you find out something .
Adrienne : I will , thank you .
Lucas : All right .
Justin : Hey .
Adrienne : Oh , hi .
Justin : Hi . I thought you told me that you and Lucas were , uh--
Adrienne : Justin . Justin , we re friends . That s never gon na change .
Justin : Oh , well , I just--
Adrienne : Uh , you -- we re doing so good . Can we just not push it , please ? Please ?
Adrienne : Oh , excuse me . Hey , how s it going ?
Kayla : I just wanted to give you an update . I , um , I called the lab and double - checked and made sure that they knew that the blood work was a rush .
Adrienne : Thank you .
Kayla : Do you want me to be with you when you get the news ?
Adrienne : Uh , if I need you , I ll call you .
Kayla : Please , and we ll talk . And in the meantime , take care of yourself , okay ? And stay busy . And remember , there is a good chance that there is nothing to worry about .
Adrienne : I will . Thanks . Bye .
Justin : Who was that ?
Adrienne : A friend .
Justin : You okay ?
Adrienne : Yeah , fine . I m fine , it s good . It s all good .
Justin : Walk you home ?
Adrienne : Thank you . Thanks .
Nicole : Get back to me as soon as you can . This is big . Bye .
Eric : Hey .
Nicole : Eric .
Eric : Hi , I m really happy that I ran into you . You know , I was thinking about that offer you made me at basic black , and , you know , the way I turned my nose up to it . I was wondering , is that offer still available ?
Nicole : I , um--
Nicole : Oh , look , I m glad you brought that up because--
Nicole : You know what , now s not a good time . I got ta take this , okay ?
Eric : Hey , Nicole--
Nicole : Hello ?
Theresa : You know , I m the one who put the deal together so I could have my shot at being a designer and they just -- they treat me like I do nt even--
Brady : I know , Theresa . Theresa , Theresa , stop . Listen , I get it , I get it . Hey , listen , take a breath . Look at me . You may be part owner , you may have ambition , you may have talent , but these things do nt happen overnight . Athletes , artists , schoolteachers , you name it , none of these people were at the top of their game right out of the box .
Theresa : You know , now you sound like Kate .
Brady : Maybe I do . But I can tell you something that I doubt she did . You will make it . You -- you got it . You have the ambition . You have the determination . You have the talent . You have the drive . You have it all . Everything you need . And I know Tate is gon na be very proud of his mom one day . You re just one of those people . You re gon na find yourself on the top of a mountain , and you are gon na be one of the best , and you re gonna-- that was not the reaction that I was hoping for . At all .

Snake : I m not saying a word .
Rafe : Mm - hmm . Okay .
Eli : Well , we ll skip the introductions since it looks like you two already know each other .
Pez : I do nt know him .
Eli : Really ? Huh . Well , you have a lot in common . For starters , you both got caught dealing halo on the street .
Rafe : Not looking very good for either one of you right now . But here s the good news . Agent grant and I are fair . We want to help you .
Eli : At least one of you , anyway .
Rafe : You see , we spoke with the DA , and he s offered a very generous deal to the guy who talks first . The other guy ... going away for a long , long time .

JJ : I just wish I d gotten there earlier . You ca nt do that anymore , Lani-- shut me out and go off on your own . You have to tell me everything .
Lani : Okay , from-- from now on . I promise .
Hope : Hey .

Abigail : We are on our way to see Lani at the hospital .
Hope : Hi . Do you want me to watch Thomas ?
Abigail : Oh , thank you , no . I m just gon na drop him off at mom s on the way .
Hope : Where s Chad ?
Abigail : He is leaving tonight on a last - minute trip .
Hope : Oh . Business ?
Abigail : I guess you could call it something like that .
Hope : Abigail , what is it ?
Abigail : It s nothing . I-- you know , I really-- I should nt have even said anything .
Hope : No , no , no . Hold on . Hold on . Chad s up to something , is nt he ? What kind of trouble is Chad getting himself into ?
Harold : Mr. DiMera .
Harold : Let me get that for you , sir .
Chad : It s fine . I - I got it . I got it . I got it . I got it . [ Clears throat ] Harold , what s wrong ?
Harold : I m afraid I have some bad news , sir . Lazzaro will not be accompanying you on your trip .
Chad : He s supposed to be my security detail . What the -- what do you mean ?
Harold : Well , he was on his way here when he was involved in an accident .
Chad : Is -- is he all right ?
Harold : They took him to the hospital . His condition is serious but stable .
Chad : All right , well , um , I - I will-- I will go check on him before I head out to Greece . But now I got to find somebody else to be my security detail .
Harold : Uh , sir , that might prove difficult . None of your security team want to go on this mission .
Chad : What do you mean , they do nt want to go with me ?
Harold : The men , they ve heard stories about the , uh , amulet .
Chad : Stories ?
Harold : I know it sounds silly , but people are saying that it s cursed .
Chad : [ Chuckles ]
Rafe : You guys do realize what it means that there is a federal agent in here with us , do nt you ?
Snake : Yeah . What are you gon na do , man , add more phony charges to my arrest ?
Eli : Look , if you did nt do anything wrong , then why not cooperate ? Look , we re giving you an opportunity here , snake . But you re only getting one . Tell me where you get your product .
Snake : [ Sniffles ] Gosh . Comes from Chicago . I get it from a middleman and ask no questions . But then again , you know , man , I m -- I m just-- gosh , I m just not real good with names anyway , so ...
Eli : Not good with names . All right , well , maybe you re better with faces . [ Grunts ] Let s take a look at some mug shots , see if you recognize anyone , huh ?
Snake : Easy on the threads there , chief . It s not -- it s not cheap , man .
Rafe : Your pal snake is the one that poisoned a cop . And yet you re gon na let him stick you with the big sentence ?
Pez : What if I told you I do nt get my drugs from Chicago ? My supplier is local .
Rafe : How local ?
Pez : The halo comes from a lab right here in good old Salem .
Chad : Okay , so -- so the people that I hire for my security detail who put their lives in danger on a daily basis are-- they re -- you re telling me they re spooked over some stories of a cursed amulet ?
Harold : There are a lot of people who believe in this kind of thing , sir .
Chad : [ Chuckles ] Right . Okay , well , you know what ? Then I ll go to Greece on my own and I ll retrieve the damn amulet myself . How about that ?
Harold : Are you certain that s a good idea ?
Chad : Harold , I will bring my lucky rabbit s foot , okay ? Oh , and , Harold , what-- what , um-- what is -- what s the box ?
Harold : Sir ?
Chad : The box , the one that went crashing to the ground , what s in it ?
Harold : Oh , that s the figurine you bought as a gift for Abigail , sir , to renew your vows .
Thomas : [ Babbling ]
Hope : Did he say where he was going on the trip ? Do you know ?
Abigail : He s going to Greece .
Hope : Greece ?
Abigail : Mm - hmm .
Hope : What s in Greece ?
Abigail : Uh , you know , we re not together anymore , so what he does on his own is not really any of my concern .
Hope : You share a child .
Abigail : And he s a great father . And I really -- I trust him to do whatever is best for Thomas .
Hope : Do you ? Trust him ? Abigail , I can see-- I can see that you re worried .
Abigail : I mean , even if I was , there s nothing I can really do about it . I walked away from him , and so he s on his own . He s gon na do what he wants , and he s not gon na listen to me , so I-- I should go . But it s really great to see you .
Hope : Yeah .
Abigail : Always .
Hope : Yeah , you too , sweetheart . I love you .
Abigail : I love you . Okay , Thomas , let s go see grandma , okay ? Say bye .
Hope : Bye , sweetheart .
Abigail : Bye .
Hope : Bye .
Joey : The pub s closing . You need to pay up .
Cory : [ Burps ] [ Sighs ] I told you ! The drinks are on the house ! [ Gasps ] What the hell are you doing ?
Joey : You re not leaving without paying .
Cory : Really ? Yeah ?
Tripp : Is there a problem here ? Let him go ?
Joey : Tripp , it s all right .
Cory : How about you mind your own business ? This is between me and the waiter .
Tripp : That waiter happens to be my little brother . So if you ve got a problem with him , you ve got a problem with me .
Cory : That s fine too . [ Grunting ] Get off me ! Get off me !
Tripp : Not yet .
Joey : Oh , all right , your total s gon na be $ 68.73 . Let s make that an even $ 80 with the tip . You caused your server a lot of trouble , sir .
Cory : [ Yelling indistinctly ] [ Grunting ]
Tripp : Yeah , well , our business is done here .
Cory : [ Grunting ]
Joey : Do nt come back . You are not welcome .
Tripp : Have a great night . [ Laughs ]
Joey : Dude , that was awesome . How d you learn to do that ?
Tripp : Oh , practice . I ve been in a lot of fights .
Joey : [ Laughs ]
Tripp : Learned a good lesson from your uncle roman a couple weeks ago too .
Joey : You want to teach me how ?
Tripp : You want to learn ?
Joey : Yeah . Of course , man . I m the rugby player , right ?
Tripp : All right .
Steve : Whoa ! What are you boys up to ?
Tripp : [ Laughs ]
Steve : [ Laughs ]
Kayla : Come in . Hello , jade .
Jade : Hi . I m so glad you called . I ve actually been meaning to talk to you and Steve about something .
Kayla : Jade--
Jade : You guys have been so supportive of me going to college and getting a degree , and I can never repay you for that . But it s been getting really hard to get to my classes on time . And I ca nt always ask for rides , and the bus is so unreliable .
Kayla : What are you asking ?
Jade : It just think it d be easier if I had a car . I mean , nothing fancy . Any used clunker would be fine .
Kayla : No .
Jade : I just want to get good grades and prove to you that it was worth it .
Kayla : You know what , jade ? We are not getting you a car . In fact , we are nt getting you anything ever again . And as of this moment , we are done paying your tuition too .
Jade : You re cutting me off ?
Kayla : We are cutting you out of our life . And you brought this on yourself .
Lani : How did Raines react when he found out you tracked me on my phone ? He could nt have been happy you broke protocol .
JJ : He s just glad we caught snake ... and that you re okay .
Lani : Did snake give anything up ?
Abigail : Hey . Well , look at you . You re just in the hospital for a few hours and you re already just itching to get back out on the street , huh ?
JJ : No , she still needs to recover .
Lani : Can you tell your brother I m fine ?
Abigail : [ Chuckles ]
JJ : You promised you would nt argue about staying in here .
Lani : I lied . Well , I would nt want either one of you to get busted by the nurse . She s a tough one .
JJ : Kicking us out ?
Lani : You caught on to that , huh ?
JJ : Are you sure you want us to go ?
Abigail : Hey , JJ , she seems pretty sure , okay ?
JJ : I ll be back in the morning . Call if there s anything you need or -- or if things get worse .
Lani : Hey , I m good , partner .
Abigail : Take care of yourself , okay ?
Chad : Okay . Well , uh , just make sure the plane is ready to go , and I will be there as soon as I can . Right . Thank you .
Hope : Is it me , or is Harold a little jumpy today ? Hey .
Chad : [ Chuckles ] Hi . Yeah , uh , just something going-- going around .
Hope : Yeah . Hi .
Chad : Hi . What can I do for you ?
Hope : Oh , I ...
Chad : [ Clears throat ]
Hope : I just wanted to see how you were . Have you heard from your father ?
Chad : I have nt , no . I dont -- I do nt expect to either .
Hope : Chad , I promised I was gon na look out for you .
Chad : Mm - hmm .
Hope : So ... how are you doing ?
Chad : I -- never better .
Hope : [ Sighs ] I was so sorry to hear about your breakup .
Chad : Breakup . [ Clears throat ] Um , no , Abby , she left me . Again . [ Chuckles ]
Hope : I m sorry . I really am . [ Chuckles ] Looks like you re going on a little trip . Business or pleasure ?
Chad : Well--
Hope : I trust if it s business , it s all aboveboard , right ?
Chad : Why are you asking ?
Hope : I m just looking out for you .
Chad : It seems like you re asking for -- for a reason . My guess is , probably Abigail told you what I was doing on my trip . What d she say ? My sweetheart s gone sayonara .
Hope : All she said was that you re going on a trip . That s it .
Chad : Well , then what makes you so , um -- so suspicious ?
Hope : Well , I was nt , but I certainly am now . You ve got my attention . Why are you so defensive ?
Chad : I m not . I m not . It s just a simple business transaction , that s it . In fact , I m gon na e before you know it .
Hope : Did nt hear you say it s not illegal . Chad ... you know what ? I , uh -- I have to finish packing , if you dont-- if you do nt mind , I just have a lot of stuff to do here .
Hope : You know , Chad , I wo nt telling you what to do . All can do is tell you to be careful . And there s no such thing as a simple transaction . Someone always ends getting hurt .
Chad : Are you warning me as a -- as a friend a cop ? S it going , living on your own ?
Abigail : Hmm . It s , um , different . Yeah . But I really -- I like my job at the station . And I feel like , for the first time in -- I do nt know-- maybe ever , that my -- my life is actually my own .
JJ : I m so proud of you .
Abigail : [ Chuckles ] Thanks . What about you , hmm ? You thinking about moving out anytime soon , giving up mom doing your laundry ?
JJ : I do my own laundry .
Abigail : Mm - hmm .
JJ : Some of the time .
Abigail : Right , exactly .
Abigail : But seriously , what about you and Lani ? Are things serious ?
JJ : Serious ? Oh , I do nt know . I just like being around her . For now , I m just gon na enjoy it and see where it goes .
Abigail : Well , I think that that s probably reasonable . As long as , you know , she knows that that s what you want .
Lani : [ Groaning ]
Eli : Lani ? Hey , Lani , are you okay ? You need me to call someone ?
Lani : No , no !
Eli : No , something s wrong . Look , I need -- I m gon na call someone , all right ?
Lani : No , no , please . Please . Please keep this to yourself . Do nt tell anyone how bad it is .
Joey : So this guy s got me by the shirt , right ? He s maybe -- I do nt know-- 65 , 245 ?
Tripp : Bigger . I d say 7 feet tall and a good 350 .
Steve : Whoa , 7 feet tall , huh ?
Joey : Oh , at least .
Steve : Hmm .
Joey : So this giant has got me by the throat , and I m thinking , this could be it . And then Tripp comes out of nowhere , and he s like , you got a problem ? [ Laughter ] It was pretty sweet .
Tripp : And I actually did nt even have a plan after that . So the guy drops Joey and charges at me .
Joey : Yeah , and Tripp does this weird jujitsu move where , like , he dodges the shot and grabs him behind the back . Why are you looking at us like that ?
Steve : Well ... [ Sighs ] Because this is the part where I m supposed to tell you fighting is not always the answer .
Joey : Oh .
Steve : And you could ve really gotten yourselves hurt .
Joey : Come on . That meathead had it coming . You would ve done the same thing .
Steve : That s beside the point .
Tripp : No , no , no , that is the point .
Steve : Acorn does nt fall far from the tree , huh ?
Tripp : I mean , if you-- if you would have walked into this place and saw that gorilla holding on to Joey , you would nt have just tried to talk it out .
Steve : I might have .
Tripp : Yeah , well , not me . I m never gon na stop standing up for the underdog . And I m thinking I might have gotten that from you .
Steve : Maybe you did . That s definitely something that runs in our family .
Jade : You re cutting me out of your lives ? Why ? What did I do ?
Kayla : I ran into your mother this morning at the gym . She told me how terrible she felt about what happened with your father at the hospital after the surgery .
Jade : Okay .
Kayla : She also told me that , um , she really missed you and that she had reached out to you recently and offered you money and a place to stay . In fact , she even offered to pay your tuition and get you a car .
Jade : I can explain that .
Kayla : All this time , you made us believe that you had nothing-- no family support , no one to back you up . And it was all a big , fat lie .
Jade : No , I just -- I did nt want to take money from them .
Kayla : Oh , so it was fine to take money from us ? Because that way , Joey would think that you had nothing and he would feel sorry for you . You traded on our empathy . You used us , jade .
Jade : Kayla , please--
Kayla : You will not get one more cent from me or Steve . And I am no longer your doctor . You can contact dr . Menendez for any future follow - ups . I have sent along your files on the transplant . Here s his card . Good - bye , jade .
Jade : Does Joey know that you re doing this ? Cause I m not sure he d think it s such a good idea to cross me . This time it s his turn .
Kayla : Are you threatening me ? Are you saying that if I cut you off , you re gon na reveal Joey s secret ?
Jade : Is that what you think of me , that I d tell Tripp that Joey killed his mother ?
Kayla : It certainly sounded like it .
Jade : I love Joey . I would never do anything to hurt him , no matter how awful you re treating me .
Kayla : You got to accept the fact that Joey is never coming back to you .
Jade : You re wrong . Joey loves me , even if he wo nt admit it . What we had when I was carrying our baby , that was special . I felt so loved and protected .
Kayla : That is no excuse for all the lies .
Jade : Maybe not , but I did it for the right reason . I did it for love . You of all people should understand that .
Eli : Here , drink this . It ll help flush the drugs through your system .
Lani : Now you re an expert on withdrawal ?
Eli : No , but I know you need to tell the doctors what s going on so they can help you through your symptoms .
Lani : No . Okay ? No more drugs . I can gut this out .
Eli : Why would you want to ?
Lani : What are you doing here , anyway ? You re just waiting around to watch me throw up again ?
Eli : There s the Lani that I remember . I m glad to see you ve hung on to your sparkling personality .
Lani : What do you want ?
Eli : Rafe and I interrogated snake and another dealer named Pez . We got some leads on a distributor , but ... it would help if you can remember anything from the night that you got drugged .
Lani : The halo wiped out everything . But once I get out of here , I can help you guys run down the leads .
Eli : Rafe and I will be just fine . You just take some time to recover .
Lani : I do nt have time . If I take off from work , people will think I ca nt handle the job .
Eli : That s not true .
Lani : You would nt understand . A woman on the job has to prove herself every single day .
Eli : Lani , you have nothing to prove . I mean , you are anything but weak . I mean , you risked your life to help save those missing women . In my book , that makes you a hero .
Hope : Chad , I m here as your friend , family . You and Abigail may not be together right now , but you re still family .
Chad : Appreciate your concern .
Hope : Fine . You do nt have to tell me what you re doing . But I pray that you think before you act . What do you want to be , hmm , as a man , as a father ?
Chad : Okay . Good - bye , hope .
Hope : Chad--
Chad : I will see you as soon as I get back .
Hope : Do nt for-- do nt forget the promise I made to you . You need me , you call me .
Chad : I need to see you . Now .
Abigail : Hey . Hi . What -- what s so urgent ?
Chad : Uh , so I got a unexpected visit from hope with some very pointed questions about my travel plans . Now , I really do nt appreciate my wife calling the cops on me .
Steve : Oh ! Well , let s just hope that big old giant rugby player does nt come back tomorrow with the whole team , huh ?
Tripp : You do nt think Joey and I could take the whole squad ?
Steve : Well ...
Joey : We need to recruit the old man .
Steve : Oh -- oh , no . You leave me out of it .
Joey : He s our secret weapon . I m gon na go lock up in the back .
Steve : All right . Hey , Tripp . I want to thank you for sticking up for your little brother .
Tripp : Yeah , Joey s a-- he s a good guy .
Steve : Yeah , he is . You know , in our family , we put a lot of stock in looking out for each other . So it means a lot , what you did . I hope we can do the same for you someday . Well , I better get going . Kayla s waiting . You listen to me , dudes . No more brawls tonight ! All right ?
Joey : We ll do our best .
Steve : Be good .
Tripp : [ Chuckles ] What ?
Joey : You and dad getting along . It s a good thing .
Tripp : Yeah , I guess I m just starting to understand him a little better . Helps me appreciate why he s done some of the things he s done .
Kayla : Do nt you dare compare yourself to me and Steve . I never lied or manipulated to hold on to him . What you have with Joey is not love . It s an obsession .
Jade : I do love him . He makes my life better . He s in my soul , and I know if he just gave me a chance--
Kayla : No , you are out of chances , jade . I want you to stay far away from my son .
Jade : You ca nt keep me away from Joey or anyone else . I ll see who I want , and there s nothing you can do about that .
Kayla : Do you really believe that ?
Jade : Joey s not your little boy anymore . And in the end , he ll choose me , and you ll be sorry .
Kayla : You have lost , jade . Admit it . Now just move on and leave us alone . Good - bye .
Eli : Your partner deserves to know what you re going through . He can help .
Lani : JJ wo nt understand . He ll try to force me to quit the case or maybe even take a leave from the force .
Eli : We all worry about our partners . Plus , JJ is crazy about you .
Lani : I guess .
Eli : You gue-- what do you mean , you guess ? Look , I ve seen you two together .
Lani : I m not saying we re not good . I just-- I do nt think JJ sees it going anywhere . Why am I even telling you this ?
Eli : I ve been told I m a good listener .
Lani : Well , you ve been lied to . Blabbing about personal details is just a symptom of withdrawal . Listen , everything that I just said right now is off the record .
Eli : Okay . Your secret is safe with me . No one ever has to know that you have a human side .
Lani : [ Groaning ]
Eli : Lani .
Lani : [ Groans ] Just go ! Go !
Eli : No , Lani , listen ! I know you re a superhero , all right ? But I ve seen you without your cape on . You have nothing to prove to me . If you need me to stay here while you ride this withdrawal out , I am here for you .
Lani : [ Whimpering ]
Abigail : First of all , hope -- not the cops . She s family . And I did nt send her to the mansion .
Chad : Well , she had quite the agenda , so you must ve said something .
Abigail : I said that I was worried about you . Chad , what you re doing is illegal , and I really-- I do nt want to watch you get locked up for it .
Chad : Okay , well , why is it that you care ?
Abigail : Are you really , really asking me that ? I still love you , Chad . I mean , we have a son . I m always gon na love you .
Chad : Just not enough to work on our marriage .
Abigail : No , because sometimes ... it s not enough . And it took me a really long time to realize that we just do nt belong together .
Chad : Okay , well , then you have no right to question my choices .
Abigail : Fine . Then you go , and you do whatever it is that you just have to do .
Chad : [ Chuckles ] I got a package , uh , in the mail today . And , uh -- and I - I - I had gotten it while we were planning to renew our vows . It s this -- this-- this little porcelain figurine . As beautiful as it is fragile . It reminded me of us , okay ? Um ... so I knocked it off of the table , and it -- and it-- it broke into a bunch of pieces . So I m -- look , I m telling you this because ... no matter how broken something appears to be , you can always put it back together again . Everything can be fixed .
Abigail : Not everything . [ Sighs ]
Kayla : Oh !
Steve : Hello .
Kayla : [ Laughs ] What are those for ?
Steve : Oh , come on , baby . Flowers do nt always have to be for a special occasion . Sometimes a husband just wants to bring his beautiful wife flowers . And sometimes all he wants in return ... is a kiss . Mmm , yummy .
Kayla : Well , you re in a good mood .
Steve : Yeah . Joe and Tripp got in a fight tonight .
Kayla : What ?
Steve : No , no , not with each other . Tripp stood up for Joe , and I think he took a big step forward .
Kayla : Joey and Tripp ?
Steve : Yeah . And me and Tripp . Listen , I know , uh , we ve got a big hurdle to clear . But I m starting to think that this could work out . That , you know , me taking the blame for Ava s death might not keep him away forever .
Kayla : I m happy for you . And I know how much you want this . But I m afraid we might have another problem .
Tripp : Hey , I - I got your text . What s wrong ?
Jade : You have no idea how awful Kayla just was to me .
Tripp : Why ?
Jade : Because she s Joey s mother and she thinks that I m not good enough for him . I mean , she acted like she cared about me , and she does nt at all . None of them do . That family ! I mean , you would think , after everything that I ve done for them , how I protected them , that--
Tripp : Whoa , whoa , what do you mean ? How have you protected them ?
Jade : Nothing . Forget it .
Tripp : You kept a secret for them , did nt you ?
Jade : I did nt say that .
Tripp : Is it about my mother ? You know more about her death than you re letting on , do nt you ? Please , jade , just-- just tell me the truth .
Hope : Hey . Hi . Egg drop soup , sesame chicken , lo mein , wontons , no MSG . Did I miss anything ?
Rafe : Crushed it . Hey , ca nt believe it s dinnertime already .
Hope : Yeah . I know . Good thing I called , right ? I thought you d be leaving the office by now .
Rafe : Mm , no . Too many damn leads on this halo case . You going to , uh , stay and join me ?
Hope : Uh , yeah , sure . Okay . Um , for a little while . I ... have a flight to catch to Greece , so I have a million things I ve got to do .
Rafe : Did you-- Greece ?
Hope : Yeah .
Rafe : Since when are we going to Greece ?
Hope : Well , it just happened . It just -- a last - minute decision . I have to do a little reconnaissance mission . It s Chad . He s up to something , and I m afraid he s gon na get himself into big trouble .
Rafe : Huh . Okay . Uh , what if he is ?
Hope : Well , maybe I can stop him before he goes too far .
Kayla : I know it was nt smart to antagonize jade , but she made me so mad . I mean , all the lies that she told us .
Steve : And she just stormed out of here ?
Kayla : Well , first she told me that I could nt stop her from seeing Joey or anybody else that she wanted . [ Sighs ] That girl is trouble .
Steve : And she s living with Tripp .
Kayla : I m sorry . I have put our family now in a lot of danger .
Steve : No , no , no . Come on , baby . You ve got nothing to apologize for . You were just defending our family , like you always do .
Kayla : But if jade talks--
Steve : Then we ll deal with it together , okay ? We re gon na keep our family safe . I promise . Come on .
Jade : I already told you everything I know about Ava s death .
Tripp : Okay , how about this ? You do nt say anything , and I ll lay out my theory . If I m wrong , you tell me .
Jade : Tripp--
Tripp : You told me Steve did what he did to protect someone he loves . Right before my mother died , she was convinced that Kayla was trying to kill her . We all know how much Steve loves Kayla . He d do anything for her , right ? Including taking a murder rap ?
Jade : Are you asking me if Kayla killed Ava ?
Tripp : Did she ? Is that what happened , jade ?
Jade : Yes .

Singer : Should auld acquaintance be forgot
Carly : Happy New Year .
Todd : Happy New Year .
Singer : Should auld acquaintance
Lulu : Hello , 2013 .
Dante : Yeah , I d say we re getting off to a pretty good start .
Lulu : The year of the baby . Our baby !
Dante : Yeah .
Lulu : I almost ca nt believe it .
Dante : Believe it .
Lulu : Let s call Maxie . We should wish her a Happy New Year .
Dante : Okay .
Maxie : I am sure you have New Year s plans , so just tell me where to sign , and I will get out of your hair .
Britt : We first need to discuss your condition .
Maxie : Condition ? It was just another false alarm , right ?
Britt : Maxie , I m sorry . You had a miscarriage .
Maxie : A miscarriage ? No , that s im - impossible . I m still pregnant . Tell me that I m still pregnant .
Britt : Maxie , I ca nt . You lost the baby .
Maxie : I do nt understand . It worked . The ... embryo implanted , and I was pregnant , and ... now I m not ? It s just gone ?
Britt : These things sometimes happen . I m so sorry .
Maxie : Do nt be sorry for me . It was nt my baby .
Spinelli : I am not taking this lying down .
Ellie : Oh , a signal !
Connie : Hey , the fog is lifting ! Did you hear that ? !
Ellie : Damian !
Connie : Oh , my God !
Ellie : Aah !
Trey : Whoa , hold on . I think I see it .
Michael : I forgot this is the same road that Cole and Hope died .
Starr : Michael , look out ! No !
Ellie : Hi ! You ve reached the voicemail of Ellie Trout . I will return your call at my earliest opportunity . Have a wonderful day !
Spinelli : Uh , well , it s after midnight .
Spinelli : And I am -- [ Laughs ] I am alone ! Irrefutable evidence that you did not accept my earnest apology and never wish to see me again . I waited for you , Ellie . I m here . Where are you ?
Michael : [ Groans ] Starr ? Starr , can you hear me ? Starr !
Starr : What happened ?
Michael : Are you okay ?
Starr : Are you okay ?
Michael : Yeah , I think so . Kristina ! Kristina , can you hear me ?
Starr : Trey ?
Kristina : Hey .
Michael : You okay ?
Kristina : Yeah . Yeah . Trey ? Oh , my God , Trey . Trey , can you hear me ? Trey .
Starr : Trey !
Trey : Yeah , hold on . What s going on ? Where s my cell phone .
Kristina : We were in an accident .
Trey : What ?
Michael : Damn it .
Starr : What ? What s wrong ? No cell service . We spun out trying to miss Connie s car . Oh , God , Johnny !
Todd : You want to get out of here ?
Carly : I d love to .
Lulu : Hey , Baby Mama , it s Bio Mama and Dante . We just wanted to , uh , call you and wish you a Happy New Year s , but you must be exhausted and sleeping , so ... we ll just see you tomorrow . Bye .
Britt : Hey . Do you have any questions ?
Maxie : Yeah . How did this happen ?
Britt : It s actually quite common . I do nt mean that to sound insensitive . The unfortunate fact is , many early pregnancies end in miscarriage .
Maxie : Is it something that I did ?
Britt : No , no , no . Most likely , the embryo just was nt viable . It s nature s way of saying it just was nt meant to be .
Maxie : No , it s meant to be . Dante and Lulu are supposed to be parents .
Britt : And I m sure they will be .
Maxie : Oh , this is all my fault . They told me to rest , and I was , and then this stupid dog showed up . They re never gon na forgive me .
Britt : Maxie , there is nothing to forgive .
Maxie : No , you do nt understand . They trusted me with their child , and I fell .
Britt : That could ve had absolutely nothing to do with the miscarriage .
Maxie : Is there any way you can tell that for sure ?
Britt : No . But in my honest opinion , the embryo just was nt strong enough . And it s better to have this happen early than go through your first trimester .
Maxie : It would ve been better if this had nt happened at all . How am I supposed to tell them ?
Britt : Do you want me to call Lulu ? She might take the news better coming from a doctor .
Maxie : I feel like it should come from me .
Britt : Okay . Well , there s no rush . Feel free to stay here as long as you want .
Maxie : No . I need some air ... and to find a place to think .
Patrick : Britt . Hey , what s up ?
Spinelli : I even rented a heat lamp for our physical comfort . And now that will go unused , just like all the rest of the surprise I had planned , all because you let my ... friendship with Maxie destroy us before we even started ! Our coupledom is gone , much like 2012 . So , happy new rest of your life .
Spinelli : Ellie ? Ellie , at long last . Please disregard the last message I sent ! Maxie ... wh - what -- what are you doing here ?
Ellie : [ Gasps ]
Starr : Connie ? Connie ? Where the hell is Connie ? ! Oh , my --
Michael : She must have ran off .
Connie : Somebody help me !
Starr : She did nt get very far .
Michael : I ll go .
Starr : No , no , no , no , no ! You , uh -- you have to get Johnny out of the trunk somehow !
Michael : Okay . You sure you re gon na be okay ?
Starr : Yes ! I m not the one who s in trouble here . Please help him .
Michael : All right , there s a tire iron in my car . Just please be careful .
Starr : Yes ! Go , go , go , go !
Connie : Can anybody hear me ? ! Help !
Starr : Whoa , whoa ! [ Gasps ]
Kristina : What are you doing ?
Michael : Just stay here .
Ellie : Help . Someone ...
Spinelli : You re not supposed to be here . What -- I m sorry . This does not compute .
Maxie : I forgot about your plans .
Spinelli : I ... dont recall revealing them to you .
Maxie : No , no , you did nt . Ellie told me she was meeting you here . I did nt mean to crash . I m so sorry .
Spinelli : Well , do you see Ellie anywhere ? [ Scoffs ] It s funny . I m seeing two of most things right now , and I ca nt even conjure up one of her . [ Chuckles ]
Maxie : She did nt show ?
Spinelli : No . No , she did nt . A not - so - subtle message that she does not return my affections .
Maxie : That does nt seem right .
Spinelli : No , it does not , but it s the truth . If she wanted to renew our relationship , she was to meet me here at midnight . It s over . We re over . This news upsets you ?
Maxie : No , um ... it s not that . I , um ... I ve messed everything up , and I do nt know how to make it right .
Spinelli : Perhaps you can start by telling me what happened .
Patrick : I m glad you called .
Britt : I m glad you picked up . Are you home ?
Patrick : Yeah , I am .
Britt : I just wanted to apologize for tonight . I was really hoping to celebrate with you .
Patrick : Yeah , so was I.
Britt : Okay , well , um ... Happy New Year , Patrick .
Patrick : Happy New Year , too .
Sabrina : I should go . I left , um -- I left a noisemaker for Emma .
Patrick : Sabrina , wait . I , um -- I did nt -- I did nt pay you yet . Um ... I m a little bit short , so I m just gon na run to my bedroom --
Sabrina : No , it s really -- it s okay . You can pay me next time .
Patrick : Are you in a rush ?
Sabrina : No . No .
Patrick : Okay . Can you just -- I m just gon na run to my room , I m gon na check on Emma , and then I ll be back , so please do nt leave , okay ?
Sabrina : Okay .
Todd : You want a night cap ?
Carly : Uh , yeah .
Todd : Yeah , night cap . Cause , uh ... we have so much to celebrate , right ? 2013 . That lunatic Connie has kidnapped that lying , cheating Johnny , right ? That s when you say cheers . Cheers .
Carly : Cheers .
Todd : Cheers . What ? You re not really worried about that guy , are you ?
Carly : No ! Well , worried is a stretch . I m just wondering that , if Connie s gon na hurt Starr , where does she draw the line with Johnny ?
Todd : Well , hopefully she wo nt .
Carly : I m trying to figure out what s going on with Connie . Why is she on this rampage ?
Todd : Still no messages .
Carly : No message from Blair , huh ?
Todd : Uh , no , Carly . No message from Starr . Have nt heard from her since the stroke of midnight .
Carly : Do you always hear from her on New Year s Eve ?
Todd : Well , after she was so cold to me on Christmas , I was hoping she d throw me a bone .
Carly : You never told me why she was so mad at you .
Connie : Why are you just standing there ? !
Starr : You tried to run ?
Connie : So what if I did , huh ? Clearly , I could nt see where I was going , the damn fog ! Aah ! You have to help me , please !
Michael : [ Grunts ] Come on , damn it !
Michael : Johnny .
Connie : Kid , come on .
Starr : I m not a kid , Connie ! You killed my daughter and my boyfriend ! Why should I do anything for you ? ! Huh ? !
Connie : Aah ! Oh , God !
Sabrina : [ Gasps ] Uh ... Patrick ? Someone s at ...
Britt : Happy New Year ! You !
Sabrina : Dr. Westbourne ! You re -- you re naked !
Lulu : This is not normal .
Dante : Well , maybe Maxie went down to do laundry .
Lulu : And left the door wide open ?
Dante : Ellie ! It s Dante and Lulu !
Lulu : Maxie ?
Dante : I m gon na go check the bedrooms .
Lulu : Was she in there ?
Dante : She s not here -- no one is .
Maxie : I am a big fat failure who ca nt do anything right .
Spinelli : What ? ! How can you say that ? ! You are generously serving as Dante and Lulu s surrogate ! I mean , you are literally a vessel of life !
Maxie : No , Spinelli , you do nt understand .
Spinelli : No , I do ! I understand perfectly ! Look , you re beating yourself up over nothing !
Maxie : Nothing ?
Spinelli : Yeah , yeah , yeah . These are the hormones talking , okay ? They re wreaking havoc on your emotions .
Maxie : You re wrong .
Spinelli : No , no ! Look , it s New Year s . [ Laughs ] Was . And you re feeling strange , right ? Just like on Christmas Eve .
Maxie : Spinelli , it s different this time .
Spinelli : No , no ! Maybe different dates maybe , but the physiolo-- physiological root is -- is the same ! It ll get better , okay ? God , it has to .
Maxie : I do nt see how it can .
Spinelli : Well , come on , look around . Who s the failure here ? Come on . Let s ... evacuate the premises , okay ? It is frigid up here ... in more ways than one . I will take you anywhere you want . Well , more accurately , I will accompany you , because I am in no way fit to drive .
Maxie : Home . I just want to go home .
Spinelli : Home it is .
Ellie : Help . Must stay conscious . Numbness . Bradycardia . Neurogenic shock . Pulmonary capacity dissipation . [ Shuddered breathing ] Critical ...
Connie : [ Whimpering ] Come on ! Starr , come on ! I know you do nt like me !
Starr : Is that some kind of a joke , Connie ?
Connie : No ! You ca nt leave me here !
Starr : You re right where you belong ! You killed my family ! You left them to die , Connie , right here ! Right here ! You took your shot , and you never looked back . Well , now it s my turn .
Connie : No !
Starr : Aah !
Carly : You re not gon na tell me why Starr was mad at you at Christmas , huh ? Okay , fine . You do nt have to tell me . You can be all mysterious , but ... no , Michael did not call me , but that s not out of the ordinary , and if it really did bother me , there d be nothing I could do about it , anyway .
Todd : I ca nt stand it when Starr does nt talk to me .
Carly : Oh .
Todd : Hey , you know what ? Phones work both ways , right ?
Carly : Uh , do nt do that .
Todd : Well , why not ?
Carly : You do nt want to call them and ruin this moment .
Todd : Aww . What moment , Carly ?
Carly : I m talking about the kids , you know ? Todd , they ve been living under the same roof for ... a few months now .
Todd : Yeah , sleeping in separate beds .
Carly : Okay , you re delusional . Those two are ringing in 2013 like every other couple . You know they are .
Todd : Oh , no , no , no .
Carly : Oh , where you going ?
Todd : I -- I m -- I m going to stop them . That s where I m going .
Carly : No , you re not . You re gon na stay ... right here ... with me .
Michael : Slow . You okay ?
Johnny : Yeah . What the hell ?
Michael : You were in an accident . Are you sure you re not hurt ?
Johnny : Yeah . Fine . Oh , God . Starr --
Michael : Starr s fine . Connie knocked her out , but she s okay .
Trey : Michael ?
Johnny : Who s that ?
Trey : Michael , it s Kristina ! Come on !
Johnny : Who is that ?
Michael : Try and find Connie s cell phone , okay ? And try to find a signal .
Johnny : Oh , damn it .
Trey : We were talking , and she was fine . We were gon na go help you . Then she just passed out . Where the hell s the ambulance ?
Michael : Johnny s working on it . Kristina , it s Michael . Can you hear me ?
Trey : No , no , no , no .
Michael : What ?
Trey : I do nt know if she s breathing .
Connie : Please help me up . Please . Please , for the love of God , what are you doing ? ! No , stop it ! Starr , you re gon na kill me ! Ohh ! No ! No !
Johnny : Starr ! Starr ! No ! Starr , do nt do it .
Britt : What re you still doing here ? Patrick left the party before midnight .
Sabrina : I m sorry , but we just got to talking , and then --
Britt : And then what , Sabrina ? You just happened to be here with him when the clock struck midnight ? Unbelievable . This is exactly what you wanted .
Sabrina : What ? No , no . It was nt even like that at all . It was just -- Patrick -- Dr. Drake got home , and then , before we knew it , they started counting down , and --
Britt : Where is he ?
Sabrina : Getting money to pay me .
Britt : Here .
Sabrina : What ?
Britt : Now go .
Sabrina : Oh , my God , no . This is way too much , and I should probably say good--
Britt : Go . Get a jump on your paperwork . Yes , while you were getting cozy here , I was seeing patients . There s a stack on my desk that needs filing .
Sabrina : Right now ?
Britt : Yes , now . I want it done by the morning .
Sabrina : But it s New Year s Eve .
Britt : Goodbye .
Sabrina : [ Scoffs ]
Patrick : Britt .
Britt : Hi .
Patrick : This is a surprise .
Britt : Hopefully a good one .
Patrick : Where s Sabrina ?
Dante : She left her phone .
Lulu : She never goes anywhere without her phone . Something s wrong .
Dante : Try not to panic .
Lulu : Well , it s too late . What re we gon na do ?
Maxie : All right , come on .
Lulu : Oh , thank God .
Dante : Hey , where you been ?
Maxie : What are you guys doing here ?
Dante : Well , we called you a bunch of times , and you were nt answering , so we thought we d check in .
Lulu : We came here , and the door is wide open , the place is empty . What happened ?
Maxie : I was , um ... sitting here , resting , and I heard a scratch at the door . Turned out it was a dog .
Dante : A dog ?
Lulu : Oh , my gosh . Olivia had another vision of a dog tonight .
Maxie : This ended up being a real one , and , um ... I know I was supposed to be keeping my feet up , and I was , but this dog just would nt leave , so I -- I got up to tell it to scram , and then it ran in here , and I chased after it . I tripped and fell .
Lulu : Oh , my God .
Dante : Um , did you go to the hospital ?
Maxie : Yeah , I saw Dr. Westbourne .
Lulu : Is the baby okay ?
Ellie : [ Shallow breathing ] Please , please move . Oh , B.P. falling precipitously . Oh . Must stay conscious . Chat or die . Damian ... Damian ... Damian ...
Trey : Come on , Kristina , open your -- open your eyes .
Johnny : Starr , come on , let me help you pull her up .
Starr : No ! I m not letting her back up !
Connie : Johnny , please help me !
Johnny : Starr , you do nt want to do this !
Starr : Yes , I do !
Johnny : No , you do nt !
Starr : Johnny , she had you tied up and locked in a trunk ! For all you know , she was gon na kill you !
Connie : No , I was nt , I was nt .
Starr : If I let you go , we can both live in peace . [ Chuckles ]
Carly : Oh , um ... wait a second . Wait a minute . Wait .
Todd : Um ... okay .
Carly : Are we sure we want to do this ?
Todd : Uh , 100 % .
Carly : I do nt want to regret being with you . I do nt want you to regret being with me .
Todd : The only thing that I m regretting is that we re talking .
Carly : I m serious .
Todd : Okay . Okay .
Carly : Are you doing this to forget about Blair ?
Todd : Pfft ! You re the one that stopped us . Are you doing this because you want to forget about Johnny ?
Starr : Connie took my whole life from me . It s only fair that I do the same .
Connie : Oh , God !
Starr : God wo nt help you ! You re a murderer . You murdered my precious little girl .
Johnny : No , she did nt . Connie did nt kill Cole and Hope .
Britt : Sabrina had to take off . She asked me to tell you good night for her .
Patrick : Right , I -- I still owe her money for babysitting .
Britt : Oh , no worries . I took care of it .
Patrick : Okay , well , then , I owe you .
Britt : Oh , no , no , no , no . [ Chuckles ] It s my treat . After all , Sabrina was babysitting so you and I could spend the night together , so ... mission accomplished .
Patrick : I m just a little confused why she left so quickly . Um ...
Britt : Maybe she remembered something she had to do or a party she wanted to go to .
Patrick : Right .
Britt : I know that I was sad being away from you at midnight . [ Clicks off light switch ] I was hoping if I could make that up to you .
Patrick : There s -- there s no need for that .
Britt : I insist . Three guesses what I m wearing underneath this coat .
Carly : If Blair came to you and said that she made a mistake and she loved you , and she wanted you back ... what would you say ?
Todd : I d tell her it s really nice to be vindicated but that ... she and I are done .
Carly : Would you say anything else ?
Todd : Yeah . Tell her I was with you .
Carly : Really ?
Todd : Yeah . Why ? What about you ? If Johnny walked in right now and interrupted us , much the same way he did the last time --
Carly : I would tell him to get lost .
Todd : You would ?
Carly : Mm - hmm .
Todd : Okay . Even if he had some convoluted and yet still plausible excuse for having to marry Connie ?
Carly : It would nt matter .
Todd : No ?
Carly : Mnh - mnh .
Todd : So you two are finished ?
Carly : You know , this , um ... thing ... with us , I m ... I m thinking it s a new start for me .
Todd : It s a new start for me , too .
Starr : Okay . So now Connie did nt do it ? That s crap !
Connie : He s telling the truth , Starr .
Starr : Then why did you tell anyone who would listen that you shot out Anthony s tires ? ! You ca nt make me save her , Johnny !
Johnny : I m telling you , Starr , Connie did nt do it . She never even fired a gun that night .
Starr : Then why did she say that she was there , that she did it ? !
Johnny : Because she was covering for the person who did .
Starr : Who ?
Johnny : Me .
Starr : What did you say ?
Johnny : I shot out Anthony s tires . I took Cole and Hope away from you .
Ellie : [ Whimpering ] Damian ... I was ... on my way ... to see you . We ... b - belong together . Maxie convinced me . [ Shuddered breathing ]
Lulu : Maxie ? Say something . How s the baby ?
Spinelli : Wait . The wee one s fine . I ran into Maxie at the hospital , and all is well , and she -- she would have said otherwise if ... schnapps ? Whoa !
Lulu : Well , thank God .
Dante : So we were worried for nothing .
Lulu : Just do nt scare us like that .
Maxie : Sorry .
Lulu : No , I mean , I -- I -- you know , I ... why did nt you call us ? I mean , we re in this together . We would have taken you to the hospital .
Maxie : I know . I just -- it happened so fast , and I was scared . I did nt think .
Lulu : It s okay . I understand .
Maxie : No , you -- you do nt understand how badly I feel .
Lulu : Look , as long as you and the baby are okay , that is all that matters .
Dante : Yes , I second that . Just promise us that if this sort of thing happens again , you call her first , please ?
Maxie : I promise .
Lulu : Adrenaline . I feel like I could run a marathon right now .
Maxie : Me not so much .
Dante : Okay , yeah , you must be exhausted .
Lulu : We ll get out of your hair .
Dante : Do you want us to take , uh , that ?
Maxie : No , you can leave that here .
Lulu : Happy New Year . Happy New Year , Spinelli .
Spinelli : For some , not for others .
Dante : Okay ...
Maxie : Happy New Year , guys .
Dante : You too .
Lulu : Happy New Year , little one .
Maxie : What just happened ? What the hell just happened ?
Spinelli : Where s Ellie ?
Ellie : I m so sorry I was nt there , Damian . I wanted to be ...
Kristina : [ Gasps ]
Michael : Kristina .
Trey : There we go . Come on .
Michael : You scared the crap out of me .
Trey : Yeah , me too . Are you okay ?
Michael : Do nt ever think about doing that again .
Kristina : I ll try . Everyone else ... okay ?
Michael : Starr and Johnny seemed fine . Heard Connie calling for help earlier , but Starr s checking it out .
Trey : Go , go , go . I ll take care of your sister .
Michael : You sure ?
Trey : Yeah , yeah .
Kristina : I m in good hands .
Trey : Oh , my God , Kristina . I thought I was losing you . I swear , I saw ... I saw my life flash before me , and I ... I do nt want to live without you .
Kristina : Me neither .
Starr : No ! Why are you doing this ?
Connie : I m losing my grip . Please .
Starr : Shut up ! Stop talking !
Connie : Just listen to him !
Starr : You would have never let Cole and Hope -- you would nt have left them to die .
Johnny : I did nt know . I shot out my grandfather s tires , I saw the car spin out of control , and I took off . I did nt hear about the other car until the next day .
Starr : But Connie confessed . Connie did .
Johnny : Yes , because I convinced her to confess .
Starr : How ? ! Why ? !
Johnny : It s not important , and we do nt have time for this right now , Starr . Connie did nt take Cole and Hope away from you . I did . She does nt need to answer for what I did . You want someone to pay ? I m right here .
Connie : Help me ! I m falling ! Please !
Patrick : So ... You re naked .
Britt : I can prove it to you , if you do nt believe me .
Patrick : Uh ... do nt do that . Do nt do that , because then ... then I m gon na have to take you up to my bedroom , and Emma s a light sleeper .
Britt : Mm . I can promise to be quiet .
Patrick : Even if she does nt wake up , she s not ready to see you here in the morning .
Britt : I completely understand . Do you hate that I came over like this ?
Patrick : Believe me , hate is the last thing on my mind right now .
Britt : Mm . Well ... in that case ... maybe one of these nights we can try a hotel room again .
Patrick : Deal . And it ll be different . It s a new year , and ... I m ready to move forward .
Britt : I really think you mean that .
Patrick : I do .
Britt : Happy New Year .
Patrick : Happy New Year .
Sabrina : Oh , God . [ Unzips ]
Johnny : Come on , come on .
Connie : Oh , God , do nt let go of me ! Ohh ! Okay . Johnny , come on !
Johnny : I got you !
Connie : Aah ! Aah ! Oh , God . Took you long enough !
Starr : You son of a bitch !
Connie : Whoa !
Maxie : [ Sniffles ] How am I gon na tell them that there is no you anymore ?
Spinelli : [ Sighs ] Ellie s not even here . Probably out carousing . Looking at the stars with someone new , no doubt .
Maxie : I m sorry . [ Sniffles ]
Connie : Where s the girl ?
Johnny : What girl ?
Connie : The redhead girl . She was in the middle of the road . I think I hit her .
Starr : You think ?
Spinelli : Do nt cry . Everything will be okay .
Maxie : It ca nt be .
Spinelli : I promise it will . Have -- have I ever broken a promise to you ?
Maxie : No .
Spinelli : Everything s gon na be okay .
Michael : Oh , my God .
Trey : I m gon na go look for my cell phone , see if I can get us a signal , okay ? Get some help out here .
Kristina : Thank you .
Trey : For what ?
Kristina : Saving my life .
Trey : There was nt another option .
Kristina : Thank you , Trey .
Trey : I ll be right back , okay ?
Kristina : Trey ! No !

### Dialogue:
Sofia : Mr. Soon - to - be - married man . This is your soon - to - be best woman , giving you a call , bugging you again . Uh , call me back on Malcolm s cell , um , if you need anything for the wedding .
Phyllis : ( Chuckles )
Sofia : Okey - dokey . ( Chuckles ) Um , that s the third time I ve called him . That s kind of odd .
Malcolm : Well , do you want to head over to Tucker s and make sure that he , uh , got to the park on time ?
Sofia : Well , that s my job . Maybe we should .
Malcolm : Okay , we can do that . But first , we got to tell Phyllis the good news .
Sofia : Oh , yeah .
Malcolm : Big news .
Phyllis : ( Chuckles ) What big news ?
Sofia : Mm .
Phyllis : Aw , really ? That s great . That s really great . Congratulations .
Sofia : Thanks .
Phyllis : You re welcome . Oh , I m so happy for you
Malcolm : ( Laughs )
Sofia : ( Laughs )
Phyllis : You re gon na be a daddy again .
Malcolm : Yes . Yeah , it s a hell of a surprise . And , you know , Sofia and I could nt be more , uh , tickled . ( Laughs )
Phyllis : ( Laughs ) Sweet .
Sofia : Tickled ? ( Laughs )
Phyllis : I - I m expecting , too .
Malcolm : What ?
Phyllis : Uh , not -- not me . Daniel . Daniel s baby , yeah .
Sofia : Ohh .
Phyllis : Yeah . Once we get the test results back that Daniel is , um , Lucy s father , then , um , she ll be back . Shell -- shell be back with her -- her -- her real family . Yeah .
Victoria : This one s for Lucy . Please bring our little girl home to us soon ... ( Sighs ) So I can hold her in my arms again . Every time I close my eyes , I see that woman from the foster care wheeling our little girl away .
Billy : I will , uh , check with Daniel and see if he s heard back from the D.N.A. lab .
Victoria : ( Sighs ) Thank you , because it s the waiting that s -- that s killing me . But I guess with everything going on upstairs ...
Billy : Yes , Ashley and Katherine need our support right now , so ...
Victoria : Yeah . And Tucker and Abby need our prayers , too .
Ashley : Come on , Abby . Come on , Sweetie , open up those beautiful eyes . It s gon na be okay .
Daniel : Hey .
Ashley : Come on in . I know she d want you here .
Daniel : She s still pretty out of it ?
Ashley : The concussion , you know ? Plus all that alcohol .
Daniel : What do the doctors say ? How s she doing ?
Ashley : Well ... well , she s stable , and , um , I think she s gon na wake up pretty soon , and I want to be here when she does .
Daniel : You know , I just , um , I just saw Katherine . She wants you to go to Tucker s room . They re about ready , to bring him up from recovery .
Ashley : Um , okay , but you have to promise me that we will come back as soon as she stirs .
Daniel : Yeah .
Ashley : Okay .
Mauro : Mrs. Newman ? Thank you for meeting with me again this morning .
Diane : It s no problem . It gave me a chance to go home and freshen up .
Mauro : ( Sighs ) Well , before I got called away yesterday , you-- you had stated that you saw the car Ms. Abbott was driving swerve into Mr. McCall .
Diane : Correct .
Mauro : Now you also mentioned that you did nt notice any brake lights .
Diane : Not only that , I saw the car accelerate .
Mauro : Before it struck Mr. McCall ?
Diane : It sped up and plowed right into him . I was shocked . I pulled over and called 9 - 1 - 1 .
Mauro : Quite a coincidence that four people who all knew each other were on an isolated road in the woods at night . Why were you out there , Mrs. Newman ?
Diane : I was meeting Tucker . It was supposed to be just the two of us .
Mauro : A romantic meeting ? Was nt he supposed to be marrying Ms. Abbott ?
Diane : I do nt want to tell you how to do your job , and I do nt say this lightly , but if Ashley found out somehow , I think you should consider the possibility this was nt an accident .
Jack : I come bearing cinnamon rolls .
Victor : That s nice of you but I ve ... had them send up from the café already .
Jack : Well , how about that ? The two of us on the same wavelength .
Victor : First time for everything , is nt there , Jack ?
Jack : Bet I know something else that s going through your mind . What s gon na happen to Tucker s empire if Tucker is nt around to run it ?
Victor : Why , you !
Ashley : How did the surgery go ?
Kay : Well , they relieved the pressure from Tucker s brain . But , um , the injuries are far more extensive than the doctors realized , so he s in a coma right now .
Ashley : How long is he gon na be like this ?
Dr. Charles : Mr. McCall s brain activity is minimal . It could be weeks or months before there s any sign of recovery , if at all . I m afraid your son s condition requires me ask some difficult questions .
Kay : Such as ?
Dr. Charles : We kept him on the ventilator after surgery . Do you know if he has a living will or any other instructions in case he was severely incapacitated ?
Ashley : I ca nt believe that we re even talking like this . I mean , are we really at this point ? I mean , is nt there anything that we can do ?
Kay : Yes , of course we can , Darling , and I - I promise you I ll handle it . Nothing s going to interfere with Tucker s recovery . Nothing .
Murphy : Listen , why do nt we talk about this outside ?
Dr. Charles : Of course .
Kay : Yes . Ashley has enough to deal with . I do not want you upsetting her like this .
Dr. Charles : I still need answers . This hospital is required by law--
Kay : I understand all of that . One does not get to my time in life without confronting these issues . However , we will not discuss this any further until we have exhausted every possible measure .
Dr. Charles : That s exactly what we did with last night s surgery . We will continue to test for any hopeful signs . However , it is imperative that we know if he prepared any documents stating his wishes . Please excuse me .
Daniel : I ll make you a little deal . I will do the whole ex - boyfriend thing on your TV show , okay ? If ... if you promise to lay off the partying for a little while . Okay ? You got ta be better to yourself than that . There s a lot of people out here that care about you . And I m sorry about us . I guess if I could do it all over , I ...
Billy : Hey .
Victoria : Hey .
Daniel : Hey . ( Clears throat )
Victoria : How is she ?
Daniel : Um , pretty much the same , I guess . You know , I ve just been sittin here thinkin about this whole Lucy situation . I think the second that I realized she was Daisy s kid , I should have handled everything totally differently .
Phyllis : Oh , so Lucy and -- and your baby will grow up together . How sweet will that be ?
Sofia : ( Chuckles )
Malcolm : Mm - hmm . You have to wonder .
Sofia : You do nt have to wonder anything . I know . I know it s a complex situation .
Malcolm : ( Clears throat )
Malcolm : Hey , uh , this could be Tucker . Talk to me .
Kay : It s Katherine .
Malcolm : She s right here . Hold -- hold on one sec . It s Katherine for you . She says it s urgent .
Sofia : Katherine ?
Kay : I tried , uh , calling your cell , but , uh , it-- it went straight to voice mail .
Sofia : Oh , yeah , I put it on the charger last night and forgot to pick it up this morning . Is , uh , everything okay ?
Kay : Uh , Sofia , there s -- there s no easy way to tell you this .
Sofia : What -- what is it ? Uh , could you , uh , repeat that for Malcolm and Phyllis , please ?
Kay : Last night , Tucker was struck down by a car . He was in the road . ( Stammers ) I do nt know why . Ashley was driving , and Abby was in the car with her , and then somehow they ... they just crashed moments later .
Phyllis : How is everybody doing ? How is everyone ?
Kay : Well , Ashley was nt hurt . Abby s still unconscious , but she s gon na be okay . As for Tucker , it s ... uh , well , uh , he had , uh , he had this massive injury to his brain , and ... and he s in a coma on a ventilator , and he ca nt breathe on his own .
Malcolm : ( Scoffs )
Sofia : I m so sorry .
Kay : Uh , listen , uh , Sofia , I m at , uh , the I.C.U. at Memorial , and the doctors have done all they can , but it s the hospital . They -- they re after me , uh , to tell them what Tucker s wishes were about ...
Sofia : Oh , sure . I will , um , get Tucker s lawyer and , uh , I ll be right over .
Kay : Thank you . ( Sighs )
Victor : Sofia on her way ?
Kay : ( Stammers ) What does that mean ? What kind of a mother am I that I have to call a colleague of my son s to get such personal information ? I mean , I was given a second chance to make up or abandoning him . ( Laughs ) Guys , I ... I squandered it .
Mauro : Why would you agree to a romantic rendezvous the night before Tucker s wedding ?
Diane : He was still a free man .
Mauro : And yet , you re not a free woman . In fact , the man you re married to is one of Tucker s biggest rivals from what I ve gathered .
Diane : My marriage to Victor is being annulled . Tucker invited me to meet with him , so I went . And it s a good thing I did , too . Otherwise , no one would ever really know what happened out there on that road .
Ashley : Abby was right about you . I did nt believe her . Was Diane really worth it ? Was she worth everything that happened ? ( Sniffles ) ( Sighs )
Jack : Ash , you all right ?
Ashley : He brought this on himself , Jackie .
Jack : What ?
Ashley : You asked me last night why ... ( Sniffles ) Abby and I were on our way up to the cabin . She insisted that I go there . She wanted me to see with my own eyes what I was getting myself into with this marriage .
Jack : So what happened ?
Ashley : Tucker told me that he was going to a bachelor party at the cabin . Jackie , he was meeting Diane .
Jack : W - wait . Tucker and Diane ?
Ashley : How could you do this to me ? How could do this to me the night before our wedding ? ( Sobs )
Billy : Daniel , are you having second thoughts about giving Lucy to us ?
Daniel : If I d told the truth right away , we probably would have worked something out quietly . Waiting made everything more complicated , so I owe the two of you an apology . Abby , too . Do you know , if I d been up front with her about the baby , maybe she would nt have lost it the way she did ?
Victoria : Listen , um , you know , I feel badly , to I probably should have been paying more attention .
Billy : All right , look , Guys , what s done is done . Right now , we need to focus on helping her recover and then getting Lucy back to us .
Victoria : Yes . ( Sighs )
Jack : Tucker told Ashley he was on his way to a bachelor party . In fact , he was on his way to our cabin to have fun with Diane , and , yes , I do mean that kind of fun .
Victor : Where the hell did you get that information ?
Jack : Ashley just told me . Abby apparently found out about it and thought her mother should know . The point is , none of this would have happened if you d been keeping an eye on things at home .
Victor : Will you stop this ?
Jack : I m just the messenger here . I think we should save our contempt for Diane .
Victor : That s another thing you and I can agree on .
Jack : ( Sighs )
Mauro : We need to finish up our interview .
Ashley : Could we please ... could we please do this later ?
Mauro : I ve received forensic reports from the accident scene which raise serious questions .
Ashley : My fiancé s in a coma , and my daughter has a serious head injury .
Mauro : And once she s awake , I intend to speak with her .
Ashley : Do you have children , Detective ? Because if you do , then you must know what I m feeling . Excuse me . I need to be with my daughter .
Mauro : You can either answer my questions here or downtown . It s your choice , Ms. Abbott .
Kay : I m beginning to see your side of things , Murphy .
Murphy : Oh , Katherine , there s not a - a my side or your side . Decisions like this , it s -- it s a lot more complicated .
Kay : No . No , no , not in this case . Right now , I m a mother who would do whatever it takes to keep her son alive ... a machine breathing for him . Even if there was just the slightest sign that his brain would heal .
Sofia : Oh , my God .
Kay : Sofia , I m so glad you got here .
Sofia : ( Sighs ) Mrs. Chancellor , I m so sorry . Um , this is Nelson McGinnis , Tucker s lawyer . Um ... ( Sniffles ) Katherine is , um , Tucker s mother , and this is her husband Murphy .
Nelson : I m sorry to be meeting under such terrible circumstances .
Kay : Well , I did nt know what to tell the hospital when they started asking about medical directives .
Murphy : Are there any on file ?
Nelson : Tucker does have a living will . He made it very clear he does not want any extraordinary measures taken ...
Murphy : ( Sighs )
Ashley : Go ahead . Ask your questions .
Mauro : The lack of tire tracks and skid marks from your car indicate that you never even braked or tried to turn away from where Tucker was standing . In fact , you accelerated . How do you explain that ?
Ashley : I already told you , I was driving my daughter s car , and we were arguing .
Mauro : Mm - hmm .
Ashley : I got distracted , and when I - I - I looked back , there was Tucker looming in my headlights . I mean , what about that , surprises you ? I mean , obviously , I thought I braked , I did nt . I must have hit the accelerator .
Mauro : Were you so stunned to see him ? I mean , were nt you driving up that way to prevent your fiancé from having an affair ?
Victor : Excuse me . That is enough .
Mauro : I m not through questioning her .
Victor : Ashley , would you kindly look in on our daughter ? I think she needs you , okay ?
Ashley : Yes , of course .
Mauro : Interfering with an investigation is a crime .
Victor : Your questions will be addressed .
Mauro : This is nt a simple accident report .
Victor : Mm - hmm .
Mauro : A witness alleged that this might have been an attempt on the victim s life .
Victor : Does that witness happen to be my wife ?
Mauro : I have forensic evidence to support the theory .
Victor : Okay .
Mauro : And I ve also established a motive .
Victor : Let me tell you something . I ve known Ms. Jenkins for many , many years . Whatever she says is not trustworthy , especially if it pertains to my ex - wives . She has an agenda .
Mauro : If you ll excuse me , I need to find Ms. Abbott .
Victor : No , Detective , you will not harass her . Not right now . If you persist in questioning her now , I will have to lodge a complaint with your superior Commissioner OConnor , a complaint he will take very serious . You have a nice day .
Ashley : I just wanted to see how he s doing .
Kay : Well , Mr. McGinnis here has informed us ...
Ashley : Hello .
Kay : That , uh , my son has a living will , and he requested we take no extraordinary measures to prolong his life .
Murphy : He s gon na have to come off the ventilator .
Ashley : No . Absolutely not .
Nelson : I m sorry , but--
Ashley : No , Tucker is a fighter . That s how he s gotten everything in his life . It s -- that s how he s lived his life . He -- he does nt give us not on anything .
Nelson : It s because Tucker is a fighter that he does nt want a machine fighting for him . No . He s made it quite clear to me on number of occasions that when he s ready to go , it s gon na be his choice and his alone .
Ashley : He is not ready .
Kay : No , of course he is nt . He would -- he would nt dare leave so much unfinished .
Ashley : And as his fiancé , I have to tell you , I wo nt allow it .
Nelson : With all due respect , you have no say in the matter .
Kay : Well , I do , and you will damn well listen . I will use every bit of the clout I have in this town to make sure that my son has a chance to survive .
Malcolm : Baby , what s wrong ?
Sofia : Um ... ( Sighs ) They said , uh ...
Jack : Said what ?
Sofia : Tucker left instruction um , not to do anything extraordinary to prolong his life .
Nelson : I m sorry .
Sofia : Oh , um , this is Nelson McGinnis , Tucker s attorney .
Phyllis : Uh , Phyllis Summers .
Jack : Hi , I m Jack Abbott .
Nelson : Hi , uh , as Tucker s second - in - command , there is an additional document I think you should all know about . Uh , in the event that he is incapacitated or otherwise unable to manage his companies and estates , Tucker left instructions for a transfer of his interests , and in light of the these circumstances , I believe the documents are in my office . I ll have a meeting of all the interested parties as soon as possible .
Jack : Who was a part of that meeting ?
Nelson : I ll be debriefing Sofia privately , if you ll excuse us .
Malcolm : Of course .
Phyllis : A little vulture - like , do nt you think ?
Jack : If that s what I have to be , fine . The future of Jabot may be on the line .
Ashley : Hi .
Victor : Hi .
Ashley : So , um ...
Victor : ( Sighs )
Ashley : Do you think that detective s gon na keep bugging me ?
Victor : If she comes at you again , tell her that you refuse to answer questions because you want to have legal representation .
Ashley : Wait , wait , wait , wait , wait . You think I need an attorney ?
Victor : Yes . Let me call Michael Baldwin . He has a lot of experience with this . You want me to ?
Ashley : No , no . I - I - it s -- no . It s not a big deal . I can handle it . ( Cell phone rings )
Daniel : Sorry . I m expecting a phone call .
Ashley : No , it s -- go ahead .
Daniel : Hello ? Yeah . um , yeah , okay , Ill-- I ll be right there . That s the genetics lab . They ve got the test results .
Victoria : Can we come with you ?
Daniel : I d really need to do it on my own . Um , how about I come and find you guys after ? Deal ?
Billy : Yeah , we ll be right here .
Victoria : Yeah , sure .
Daniel : Bye .
Billy : ( Clears throat )
Victoria : Gosh , I hate this .
Ashley : Do nt you already know what the test results are ?
Billy : Yeah , but it does nt mean we re free and clear on this . Child protective services can decide that Daniel ca nt provide the appropriate home and then Lucy will stay in foster care . Or Phyllis will get custody , and that s a whole lot worse .
Victoria : I do nt care . I do nt care about any of that . I just -- I want my baby back . I just want her back .
Victor : I have to go somewhere . Excuse me .
Billy : Ahh , that s right . Off you go , right as your daughters need you .
Victoria : ( Sighs )
Victor : I know you re upset right now . I ll pretend not to have heard that , all right ?
Billy : ( Chuckles )
Daniel : I ca nt even think about doing a show right now . Could you maybe call me next month and-- and we ll see if we ca nt figure something out ? Thank you .
Victor : Um , you hold that child s fate in your hands , and I hope you will not disappoint my daughter .
Jack : Wow , you got a lot of nerve , and do nt tell me it s because you care , cause we both know . Here comes Diane , responsible for all the world s misery . Oh , no , no , no , no , no . You do nt get to play the victim .
Diane : It was Tucker who invited me to meet with him .
Jack : Even if that were true , she agreed to meet him , and look what happened .
Victor : Jack , if you do nt mind , I d like to talk to my wife , have her explain her allegation that Ashley ran over Tucker intentionally .
Jack : Why you little ... yeah , you can have the room , if you can stand to be with her ...
Billy : Takin it straight to the top , huh ?
Kay : ( Chuckles ) Uh , you know what , Bill ? As big a deal as I am with the board at the hospital , it evidently is nt enough to have my son . The administrator would nt even budge . And , uh , legally , we ca nt keep him on the ventilator .
Billy : The law really sucks sometimes .
Kay : Yes .
Billy : Sorry . ( Clears throat )
Kay : ( Chuckles ) You know , just yesterday ... yesterday , Tucker was so looking forward to starting a whole new life with Ashley . And I wanted to make that chance happen and to make things better between the two of us .
Billy : Well ... you ve made deals with the big guy before .
Kay : ( Chuckles ) Oh , oh , my dear , I wish I was dealing with God . I mean , I can rail against him , deal with him , make deals with him ... ( Sighs ) Perhaps obtain just a scrap of mercy , unlike with these ... bloody bureaucrats .
Billy : Yeah . Vicki and I know what it s like to fight the system .
Kay : Yeah .
Billy : And it looks like there s gon na be a whole lot more of it before everything s settled with Lucy .
Kay : Well , then perhaps the two of us should ask for a bit of help from the one source that s able to give it .
Billy : ( Sighs )
Kay : Hmm ? You first .
Billy : Mnh - mnh . You first .
Both : Together .
Kay : ( Chuckles )
Victor : For you to tell the police such a vicious lie--
Diane : It was nt a lie . I saw that car speed up and steer into Tucker . Why is it so wrong to want to make that known ?
Victor : You did nt just describe what happened . You accused Ashley of attempted murder . What the hell is the matter with you ? You planted the seed out of pure spite . How do you know what was in her mind ?
Diane : Whatever you say , Victor . God knows you re always right .
Victor : This whole thing happened because you ... are nothing but a tramp .
Ashley : She actually told the detective that I was trying to kill my fiancé ?
Jack : Shh . The detective is right outside the door .
Ashley : Why would she do that ? Does she hate me that much ?
Jack : Maybe she s jealous . I do nt know . She lives to stir up trouble . She s not gon na get away with this , though .
Jack : I asked Murphy to call me if there was any new -- it s me . Murphy . Hey , Murph .
Ashley : What ?
Jack : Thanks . They re taking Tucker off the ventilator .
Ashley : I thought Katherine was gon na try to fight that .
Jack : I m sorry .
Abby : ( Moans ) Mom ?
Ashley : Abby , Honey ?
Jack : Hey , Abby . Its Uncle Jack and Mom . Can you hear us ? Abby ?
Ashley : Look , Jack , would you leave us and tell Kay I ll be there as soon as I can , okay .
Jack : Okay , I ll come get you if they need you .
Ashley : Thank you . Hi , Honey .
Abby : ( Sighs ) What happened ?
Ashley : There was an accident , Sweetie .
Abby : I was driving . Oh , my God . Oh , my God , Tucker .
Kay : Well , could you at least give us some idea of what to expect ?
Dr. Charles : Unfortunately , there s no way to predict if Mr. McCall will be able to breathe on his own .
Jack : And what if he does ? What then ?
Dr. Charles : We see if it lasts .
Kay : The doctor s saying if he removes this apparatus from Tucker , he could die . Right ? And in all likelihood , he will die . Right ? Oh , God , I wish those damned lawyers were here flipping the switch , because I ll tell you something right now-- this travesty is on their heads ! ( Moans ) God !
Murphy : ( Sighs )
Kay : Oh , Tucker .
Kay : Oh , God . Murphy .
Phyllis : ( Sighs ) I got your text . Those the results ?
Daniel : Yep .
Phyllis : Okay .
Daniel : I already sent a copy to the court , so if you want to open it , you can .
Phyllis : ( Sighs ) Okay . Well , you ca nt argue with 99.9 % , can you ?
Daniel : No .
Phyllis : What are you doing ? Go get your baby out of custody and bring her home .
Daniel : Where exactly is home ?
Phyllis : ( Sighs ) You can bring her to my place . I ... will take care of her if that s what you want . I will take full responsibility in her upbringing if that s what you want . Just promise me-- just -- just promise me you wo nt give her back to Billy and Victoria . They re two of a kind .
Billy : Well , that s nice , Phyllis . Always good to know who your friends are .
Phyllis : This is nt really about friendship , is it , Billy ?
Victoria : Oh , well , obviously not .
Daniel : ( Sighs ) D.N.A. test results . No surprises .
Billy : Great , so what now ?
Victoria : Please tell me you re not gon na let your mother use our baby to work out her issues .
Phyllis : Victoria , I m so sorry , but this is nt and never was your baby .
Daniel : Okay , okay , okay . Really ? Really ? Are we gon na sit here and argue about this ? Not in here , okay ?
Billy : Does that mean you re gon na keep your word ?
Daniel : What it means is I ve had it with all three of you . I m gon na go home and get the court order I need to take custody of Lucy , and then after that , we ll see .
Victoria : ( Sighs )
Billy : ( Purses lips )
Victor : If I had any doubt about ending this marriage , I do nt now .
Diane : Oh , so you re dumping me because I told the police the truth ? Come off it , Victor . You ca nt stand the thought of my being with Tucker or anybody else , and yet I walked in on you and Nikki doing it more than once , and you call me a tramp ?
Victor : You listen to me . This is not about infidelity . This is about family . Your implicating the mother of my daughter . You do nt know who I am , do you ?
Diane : I know exactly who you are . You re the biggest hypocrite on the planet . That s who you are .
Victor : You and I are finished , and I m going to make sure that this time , you will not walk away a wealthy woman . All right ? Our marriage is annulled . You ai nt gon na get a cent . How s that and I want you to get out of the ranch today .
Diane : ( Sighs )
Abby : I ran over Tucker .
Ashley : No , Honey .
Abby : I hit him with my car .
Ashley : No , no , no .
Abby : Did he -- did I kill him ?
Ashley : Abby .
Abby : Is he dead ?
Ashley : Abby , you re wrong . I was driving . You have no reason to panic , Honey .
Dr. Charles : I m about to remove the tube .
Kay : Tucker , breathe . Come on , Sweetheart . Breathe . No , damn it . Now you -- you listen to me . You are my son , and you re not giving up . Do nt you dare let him go , God . Do nt you dare l going to let him go ! Breathe , damn it !
Tucker : ( Gasps )
Kay : Breath , damn--
Tucker : ( Exhales )
Kay : Breathe .
Tucker : ( Gasps )
Kay : Oh , God .
Kay : Oh , God .
Tucker : ( Gasps )
Kay : Oh , God .
Jack : Wow .
Tucker : ( Gasps )
Kay : Son , you can do it .
Malcolm : Come on , Tucker .
Kay : Yes , you can .
Victor : Get your things and get out . Otherwise , I ll have you thrown off the ranch .
Billy : I m gon na get full custody of our daughter .
Chloe : In your dreams .
Lily : I know this ca nt be real . I just need you so much .

<s>### Instruction:
You are a helpful, respectful and honest assistant. Your task is to summarize the following dialogue. Your answer should be based on the provided dialogue only.
### Dialogue:
Sami : It s true . It s true . You ca nt deny it anymore , Lucas . We belong together , and you feel it just like I do . I can tell by the way you kissed me .
Lucas : Wait a minute . You kissed me . You -- you caught me off guard .
Sami : Yeah , and that is exactly why you reacted the way that you did . You did nt have time to think about it . You just did what was in your heart . You love me .
Lucas : Yeah , I do love you . I admitted that . I did nt deny that , Sami , but we ca nt be together .
Sami : Why not ?
Lucas : Why not ? This is why not right here . You were Stan . You were something so horrible they actually made a Halloween costume .
Sami : It s not fair ! I m not Stan , okay ? ! Not anymore !
Lucas : What am I supposed to do , huh ? Am I supposed to forgive and forget the fact you worked for Tony DiMera ? You almost got me killed -- me and my two brothers and Shawn --
Sami : I explained why it happened , and Austin believes me . Why ca nt you ?
Lucas : Austin believes you , huh ? Austin hired you as his assistant . Now he s living with you , with Nicole . I think he s crazy .
Sami : He s not crazy , okay ?
Lucas : What about the lies , Sami ? What about the lies you told me and Will ? Was that a mistake , too ? That was an accident ? I asked you -- I asked you to tell me if there was anything I should know before we got married . I wanted to know everything that happened in that war zone , and you told me everything , but you lied . Now I ca nt trust you . I can never forgive you for what you ve done .
Sami : I m sorry . You re right . It was a mistake .
Lucas : You think it was a mistake ?
Sami : Yes , I do ! I would do anything to take it back . Obviously , I should have been honest with you . I m sorry . But you ca nt throw away our lives -- our whole future -- for this . Please , Lucas . You ca nt .
Lucas : I m sorry , Sami . I made up my mind , and there s nothing you or anyone else can say to change it .
Will : What about me , huh ? Do nt I have a say about this ?
Nicole : So , is this what you do -- cheer up down - on - their - luck women ?
Austin : Well , if you re feeling better , I m glad . But maybe I needed cheering up , too .
Nicole : What ? Do nt tell me you re down on your luck , too .
Austin : No , no , but I do nt get out much . My social life has been very quiet .
Nicole : Get out ! That is not the Austin I remember .
Austin : People change . I ve become quite a workaholic .
Nicole : Wow , you have changed .
Austin : That s what I m telling you .
Nicole : Yeah . I do nt -- I still ca nt believe it . You must have a bunch of women waiting for you in New York .
Austin : Well , I m not saying I live like a monk . I got out , but , you know ... you know , just no one special .
Nicole : Why not ? I mean , New York s filled with the most beautiful women in the world .
Austin : No question . Trouble is , I left my heart here in Salem .
Nicole : Who did you come back for , Austin ? And why are you being so secretive about it ?
Austin : Our table is almost ready .
Nicole : Good . I am starving .
Austin : Thank you for joining me for dinner . You look fabulous , by the way . I think we both needed to get out -- have a little break .
Nicole : You can say that again .
Austin : I think --
Nicole : But do nt .
Austin : [ Laughing ]
Nicole : Listen , not that I m complaining , mind you , it s just that living and working in Sami s apartment -- yeah , it can feel a little crowded sometimes .
Austin : Yeah . I guess it does . Definitely not the Kiriakis mansion .
Nicole : No . No . But , believe it or not , in some ways , this is so much better because I can be on my own now , and I am starting to see that maybe -- just maybe -- there is life after Brady . Now I can ... breathe for the first time in I do nt know how long .
Austin : I m glad .
Nicole : And I am glad to finally have some alone time with my boss , especially at Chez Rouge . It sure as hell beats Sami s mac and cheese in a box .
Austin : [ Chuckles ]
Nicole : Plus , I can write this whole thing off as a business meeting .
Austin : Oh , see ? That s exactly the kind of thinking that got you hired .
Nicole : Thank you .
Austin : I think I should tell you the real reason why I asked you to dinner tonight .
Nicole : The real reason ?
Austin : It s to talk about our future .
Bo : How we doing ? We still in the black ?
Hope : I do nt know . I ca nt seem to get our checkbook to balance . I ve done it three times , and I m still off my hundreds of dollars .
Bo : Oh , this may have something to do with it . I did nt put it in the register yet . There you go .
Hope : You took another $ 250 out of the bank ?
Bo : Yeah . That s to cover the money I gave Chelsea .
Hope : Right . Well , what do you know ? That was it . Now we balance perfectly .
Bo : Good .
Hope : Not really . Your second very generous gift to Chelsea has put us way over our monthly budget .
Bo : Do nt worry about it . We ll be okay .
Hope : Not if we keep this up . Bo , I am worried . Please tell me you re not gon na make a habit out of this .
Bo : I ca nt do that .
Jack : Hello . Oh , uh , this is nt a good time . I ll call you back in a couple of minutes . Yeah . Right .
Jennifer : Jack ? Jack ?
Jack : Yes . Yeah , yeah , of course I m still interested in the assisted suicide . I just -- I just need to know what to do . Really ? Here in town ? No , no , no . I - I think I know the place . Just let me -- let me get a piece of paper . I m just gon na jot down -- yeah . Hanover Street and 13th . Yeah . No , no . That s -- that s good . It s all good . I m just -- I m on my way . Yeah , are nt we all , buddy ? Are nt we all ?
Jennifer : Jack ? [ Dog barking in distance ] Jack . Oh , let me try calling him again . [ Screams ] Oh , God .
Like sands through the hourglass , so are the Days of Our Lives .
Hope : So , wait a second . I m sorry . I-- [ Sighs ] Are you saying you re gon na keep doling out hundreds of dollars of our money to Chelsea every time she just feels like hitting you up ? It s that what you re saying ?
Bo : What I ve been saying , Hope , is I m gon na talk to her about her spending before I give her anything else . I ca nt promise you I m not gon na help her out when she needs it . I m her father . She s got to know that she can depend on me . If that puts us over budget every now and then , well , we re gon na have to deal with that . We ve got new responsibilities now .
Hope : I understand that . Hey , I m not saying you should turn your back on your daughter . I would never ask you to do that . It s crazy .
Bo : Yeah .
Hope : I guess what I m asking is that maybe -- maybe Billie should help out a little bit with the responsibility financially .
Bo : We re talking about my child here . She s not some extravagance we can cut back on .
Hope : Maybe if Chelsea cut back on a few extravagances , we would nt be having this conversation right now . [ Sighs ] I just wish you could see what she s doing . She is working you . She knows how anxious you are to have her accept you , bo . She s playing on your sympathies , and you re falling for it every time .
Bo : That is not what s happening .
Hope : Can you say denial ? You know what ? You ve got complete blinders on when it comes to this girl .
Bo : This girl , as you so lovingly put it , is my flesh and blood , and if giving her a few dollars every now and then makes her feel like she has someone she can depend on , that s what I m gon na do .
Jennifer : Oh , my goodness .
Frankie : You scared me .
Jennifer : I scared you ?
Frankie : I m sorry . Look , I thought someone was breaking in . Are you all right ?
Jennifer : No , I m not all right , but I ll be all right .
Frankie : Okay .
Jennifer : [ Exhales deeply ]
Frankie : What are you doing out here ? I thought you and Jack went to bed ..
Jennifer : We did . Then I woke up , and Jack was gone . He is out somewhere , and he should nt be out . If something happened to him , there s no one to help him . I got to find him .
Frankie : We ll find him . I m sure he s gon na be okay . Everything s gon na be all right .
Jennifer : Oh , my gosh . I do nt know what I would do without you .
Frankie : Do nt worry .
Jack : [ Exhales deeply ] Okay . I m officially creeped out . You know , maybe this was nt such a good idea . Maybe it would be better to come back tomorrow . Yes , tomorrow would be a good idea . Tomorrow is another day -- in the daylight . Yes .
Man : Mr. Deveraux ? [ Chuckles ] Yes . I ve been expecting you .
Jack : Yes . Well , I was thinking maybe I could come back tomorrow .
Man : Please . Come in . Death awaits .
Nicole : You want to talk about our future ?
Austin : Yes . I want you to know what a great job I think you re doing , just in case you have nt already noticed .
Nicole : Thank you . Yeah .
Austin : I knew you d be good , but you re better than I expected . And I see what I hope will be a very long , mutually beneficial association .
Nicole : [ Chuckles ] That s what you meant by our future .
Austin : Everything s on track . We are ahead of schedule . Soon we re gon na have an office space -- a real office space . Now that we ve moved into development , it wo nt be long before we start rolling out our first line of products . That is gon na be the real acid test , you know ? If it s a hit , the sky s the limit , Nicole .
Nicole : Austin , it will be a hit . I ca nt wait for Victor and Lucas to see what we have planned .
Austin : They re gon na be surprised .
Nicole : Well , they should nt be . When we teamed up at Titan , we kicked ass , and the whole industry knew it .
Austin : That s exactly why I chose you to be my partner in this little venture .
Nicole : [ Chuckles ]
Austin : Although I would nt mind ... if we took things ... a bit further .
Nicole : What do you mean -- a bit further ?
Austin : You know what I mean .
Lucas : Buddy , you were eavesdropping . I told you that s not polite .
Sami : Wait . No . I think that will has a right to say what he thinks . I mean , he s part of this family , too . We want to know what you think , Will .
Will : It s just that ... if you two still love each other -- and it seems like you do -- I just -- I think you guys should do whatever it takes to work things out and somehow be together .
Sami : Oh , Will .
Will : Dad , I m not saying it was nt wrong what mom did . She ll probably never be able to live down the fact that she was Stan . I especially hated that she lied to us .
Sami : I m sorry , honey .
Will : Yeah , I know , mom . You re always sorry . But if you can just try trusting in dad s love , then you would nt have to get involved in all these crazy schemes .
Sami : You re right . You re right . [ Sniffles ] And , I promise , I have learned my lesson , Lucas . This family is the most important thing in the world to me , and I am gon na be a good wife and a good mother from now on . Look , no more revenge , I promise .
Lucas : Really ? Until my mom does something to tick you off again , or somebody else does something , Sami ? And that s when the lies and the secrets start all over . Look , I want to believe that you ve changed . I really do . But I do nt think you could help yourself .. I do nt think you can control whatever impulse makes you do the things you do .
Sami : No ! No , you re wrong ! I have changed ! I do nt care about getting revenge . What I care about is this family -- you and Will . And I promise I will do whatever it takes to earn your trust again , and I promise you wo nt regret it . Please .
Will : I think she really means it this time , dad . What do you say ? Give it a shot ?
Lucas : I m sorry , buddy . I ca nt . I ca nt do it . I ca nt go down that road again . I m not gon na put myself through that . I m not gon na put this child through this again . I m sorry . What your mom and I had -- it s through , it s over , and it s final . [ Knock on door ] Excuse me . [ Door opens ] Hey , uh , Sophie , you re a little early .
Sophie : I could nt wait another minute to get my hands on you . You ready to celebrate ?
Hope : Hey . I do nt really believe that s what you want -- to spoil your daughter that way . You ve always been a responsible parent . You ve always said that you want your children to be prepared for real life . Even Billie agrees that we re not doing Chelsea any favors by spoiling her . She has to learn responsibility -- that her actions , be it frivolous spending or whatever , have consequences . And if you keep insisting on shielding her from that -- that reality -- then things are gon na be even tougher for her .
Bo : I m not arguing with you , Hope . As I ve said , if she comes to me for my help -- if she needs my help financially -- we re gon na agree on what she spends this money on . She s not gon na go out and blow it .
Hope : Thank you . That s all I was saying .
Bo : So , this argument s over ?
Hope : It s not an argument . It was simply a discussion .
Bo : That was an argument .
Hope : Oh , my God . Are we gon na argue about whether it was an argument or not ?
Bo : No , no , no . We re gon na kiss and make up .
Hope : [ Exhales deeply ] I think it was almost worth arguing to get a kiss like that .
Bo : Ha ha . You said arguing .
Hope : Discussion .
Bo : You said it .
Hope : Discussion .
Bo : Mm - hmm .
Hope : Before we get into it again , I have some work to do . I need to answer some e - mails .
Bo : The game is on . I got to catch some couch time .
Hope : You do that .
Bo : What ?
Hope : You should see the e - mail I got . You are not gon na believe who it s from .
Bo : Who ?
Hope : Kathy Sullivan , an old school friend of mine from boarding school . I have nt heard from her in ages . She has a son about Shawn s age who s about to start law school . Last time I spoke to her , I told her Shawn was doing the same . Now she wants to know where he s going .
Bo : You okay ?
Hope : Not really . I still ca nt believe that Shawn not only is nt going to law school , but he s not even gon na finish college . Instead , he s gon na throw his whole life away -- his whole future -- to be a mechanic in Max s garage .
Bo : Look , I know you re disappointed . I wish he d finish school , too , but there s nothing wrong with being a mechanic in Max s gar-- he could make good money .
Hope : It s not about the money . It s never been about the money . And I m not saying there s anything wrong with being a mechanic , because there s not . I just want the best for our boys .
Bo : Maybe this is what s best for him . I mean , some people search their entire lives to find something they enjoy doing . If this makes him happy , then maybe we should be happy for him .
Hope : I m sorry , but I ca nt be happy that my son s not getting a degree ..
Bo : Hope ...
Hope : I m sorry , but he made me a promise . He promised when he graduated from high school -- he promised he would finish college . And you know what ? That s a promise I expect him to keep .
Bo : What are you saying ?
Hope : I m not letting it go . Shawn will get an education , even if I have to drag him every day to Salem U. until he graduates .
Frankie : Do nt worry , okay ? I m sure wherever he went , he s fine .
Jennifer : I am not so sure . Someone just called his cellphone right now . Who would be calling him this late at night ?
Frankie : That s a good question .
Jennifer : [ Sighs ]
Frankie : What s this ?
Jennifer : What s what ?
Frankie : A piece of paper .
Jennifer : What is that ?
Frankie : It could be the clue we ve been looking for .
Man : Well , are nt you coming in ?
Jack : Uh , yes . Y - yes , of course . Wow . [ Chuckles ] The place reminds you of Harry Potter .
Man : Harry who ?
Jack : Excuse me . This -- this is a bookstore , is nt it ?
Grim Reaper : Oh , yes . Yes . With , uh -- we carry only very specialized books .
Jack : I see . Well , uh , I - I received a call earlier from the , uh , the assisted suicide hot line in Europe . They told me to come here .
Grim Reaper : Yes . I m aware of your situation . You ve come here to die .
Lucas : Uh , Sophie , we re , uh , we re not alone . Come on .
Sophie : Oh , my God . I am so sorry . I did nt realize anybody else was here .
Sami : Oh , yeah . It would have made a really big difference .
Lucas : Look , she did nt know , all right ? We have plans . We re going out .
Sophie : I wanted to help him celebrate his new job .
Sami : I ll just bet you did .
Lucas : Uh , will , you remember Sophie , right , from Alice s ..
Will : Uh , yeah . Hi .
Sophie : Hi , will .
Lucas : Um , I guess we better get going , buddy .
Sami : We ll be fine .
Lucas : Are you gon na be all right ?
Will : Sure .
Lucas : All right . We ll talk tomorrow . I promise . Okay ? But , uh , do nt wait up for me tonight .
Sophie : Bye , Will . Sami .
Lucas : Goodbye , Sami .
Sami : Hey , um , thank you so much for what you said , Will . I really appreciate it . But maybe you and I could hang out for a little while . You know , get some ice cream at Java Café or something ?
Will : I - I ca nt . I have homework .
Sami : Maybe some other time , huh ?
Will : I do nt think so . I think I m gon na have a lot of homework this year . I must admit I was awful bad
Austin : So , bottom line , if we can get the skin and hair - care products approved by the FDA ahead of schedule , which I think we can , it ll be on the shelves in no time .
Nicole : It s all coming together , is nt it ?
Austin : We ll see . We ll see . To actually pull this off , it s gon na take a lot of hard work . Things could get pretty grueling .
Nicole : Well , luckily , I do nt have a problem with that . See , work is my life right now -- my whole life .
Austin : Still , everyone needs a break now and then . You know what they say . All work and no play ...
Nicole : Yes . Well , what can I say , Austin ? I mean , ever since Brady dumped me , there has nt been a whole lot going on .
Austin : I m sorry about what happened between you two .
Nicole : Thanks . You know , I should have known it would end up like this . As much as I loved him and I knew he loved me , I still knew that his heart would always be with Chloe . And as hard as it was when I thought she was dead , then she came back . I knew I d never have a chance . And I do nt know if I ll ever get over that .
Austin : I know what you mean . I know what it s like to love someone whose heart belongs to someone else . That s why I did nt come back to Salem sooner . I could nt until I knew a certain someone was free .
Nicole : [ Thinking ] Damn it , Austin . Stop playing games and just tell me who it is . Is it me you re after or Sami ?
Sami : [ Sniffles ] Lucas loves me . I know he does . There has to be some way that I can get him back .
Janet : Do nt kid yourself , honey . If you think your man s ever coming back , you are sadly mistaken .
Bo : Hope ... we got to let our son stand on his own two feet , make his own decisions about his life .
Hope : Of course I ll support him in whatever he ultimately does , including being a mechanic . Is it really so bad that I want my son to have a degree ?
Bo : No , it s not bad at all , but you re talking about dragging him back against his will .
Hope : Okay , so maybe I was just exaggerating a little bit .
Bo : Yeah , right .
Hope : But I still want to have a serious conversation with him , and I d really appreciate it that you be there and back me up when I do .
Bo : Hope , I will back you up . But when we talk to him , if he does nt budge , I m not gon na force him to do something against his will , just like I m not gon na force Chelsea to do anything she does nt want to do .
Hope : Well , you never have any luck in that department , not with Chelsea .. Shawn respects you .
Bo : Are you saying she does nt ?
Hope : Chelsea does nt respect anyone , Bo .
Zach : Why are you fighting ?
Bo : Oh , hey , there , tiny man .
Hope : Oh , sweetie .
Bo : Come here . We re not fighting . We re just kind of having a loud , noisy discussion .
Hope : I m sorry , honey . Everything s okay . I m sorry that we woke you .
Bo : I think I ll take him back up to bed .
Hope : You go right to bed , okay ? I love you . Sweet dreams , okay , baby ?
Bo : Say good night , mommy .
Zach : Good night , mommy .
Hope : Good night , my love .
Bo : Come on . Here we go . Whoo - hoo .
Hope : What is happening to us , Bo ? My God .
Jennifer : Are you sure we re in the right place ?
Frankie : That s the address on the paper . You said that s his handwriting , right ?
Jennifer : What would Jack be doing out here in the middle of the night in this part of town ?
Frankie : We do nt even know he s here . That could have been written a long time ago .
Jennifer : Yeah , that s true . But since we re already here ...
Frankie : Oh , we re gon na check it out .
Jennifer : Thank you for coming with me and putting up with me through all of this . You could be home in a nice , warm bed right now .
Frankie : You should know by now that I d do anything for you .
Jennifer : I do know . You have no idea how much I appreciate that . Oh , thank God you re here , Frankie .
Frankie : It s gon na be all right , and we ll find him .
Jack : I think there s been some mistake . I - I did nt come here , quite literally , to die .
Man : I know why you came here . We re the only place in Salem that carries underground publications on assisted ... suicide .
Jack : Right . Right . Well , I can see that we re on the same page , so to speak .
Man : I understand that you re dying , and you do nt have very long .
Jack : Right again . Well , so if I could just have the book , I could get -- I could go home to my wife before she wakes up . She ll be so upset . I mean , she ll kill me . She ll be so upset if she finds out .
Man : One moment . I ll get it .
Jack : Thank you . [ Exhales deeply ]
Man : You are aware there are other -- other options ? You know that , do nt you ?
Jack : Yes , but I m -- I m afraid this is the only one that s going to work for me .
Man : The only way ?
Nicole : There you go , mentioning that mystery woman you re so head over heels for again . You know , you re killing me .
Austin : I m sorry . I do nt mean to . I should nt have brought it up .
Nicole : No , it s not that , Austin , but you ca nt blame a girl for being curious . So , if you wo nt tell me who she is , will you at least tell me who she is nt ?
Austin : It would nt be fair .
Nicole : To who ?
Austin : [ Chuckling ] No . No .
Nicole : I do nt understand why you re being so secretive . You never used to be like that . You used to tell me everything .
Austin : I m older and wiser now , and I have learned -- learning to keep my mouth shut , at least until the time is right .
Nicole : Okay . I hear you . Now is not the time for distraction . Eyes on the prize .
Austin : Exactly . But that does nt mean that we ca nt have fun after office hours .
Nicole : Hmm . What did you have in mind ?
Austin : I would like to dance ... with you .
Nicole : I thought you d never ask .
Austin : Oh , great .
Nicole : [ Chuckling ]
Austin : Ooh !
Nicole : Wow .
Lucas : Look , Sophie , I think it s nice that you wanted to take me out to celebrate , but Chez Rouge is kind of pricey . I wish you d let me treat .
Sophie : Unh - unh - unh . Forget it . Tonight s on me . And , besides , I thought we d just start out here for drinks . We could toast to your wonderful , new future with one of Maggie Horton s sparkling ciders and then head over for burgers at buddy s .
Lucas : That sounds really good .
Sophie : Are you okay ?
Lucas : Yeah , yeah . I m fine .
Sophie : Did I interrupt something back at your place ? I mean , it seemed a little intense . And not just because I practically jumped your bones in front of your son and your ex - fiancé .
Lucas : No , I m okay -- really . It s fine . It s just Sami was , uh , trying to get us back together . She was pulling out all the stops .
Sophie : And ? Any chance of that happening ?
Lucas : No way in hell . What Sami and I had is over -- for good .
Sophie : I m glad to hear that . I ll , uh , get us our drinks .
Lucas : Great . Thanks .
Sami : Um , do I know you ?
Janet : No . But if your man is as big of a jerk as mine , trust me , he is never gon na take you back . He s already moved on to another pretty face . Forgot you ever existed .
Sami : That is not true . Lucas is not a jerk . He s wonderful .
Janet : Hey -- oh . You got a light ?
Sami : I do nt smoke .
Janet : Good for you . I m trying to quit myself . I m Janet , by the way .
Sami : Sami .
Janet : Sami , let me tell you something . My fiancé dumped me cause of a few little secrets I had . Said he could nt trust me anymore . And finally I gave up trying to get him back .
Sami : How can you give up on true love ?
Janet : Hey , sweetheart , love is a two - way street . I may have screwed up , but I ai nt a fool for any man . While I was sitting home eating my heart out thinking he was doing the same , that dog had hooked up with another babe .
Sami : Well , it probably did nt mean anything to him . I mean , you could have gotten back together .
Janet : [ Scoffs ] Baby , you ve been reading too many romance novels . This is real life . The two lovers do nt end up together in the end cause Romeo s already moved on . You know what I m saying ? It s probably true in your case . I ll bet he s already out with a young hot one right now .
Sami : Sophie .
Janet : Yeah . So do yourself a favor . Do nt let that creep make a fool out of you . Dry those tears . Pick yourself up , and move on , too . Get yourself a guy while you still got it . Do nt end up like me . Hey , mister , you got a light ?
Sami : Maybe she s right . Maybe I have to accept that it s over ... and move on with my life . If Lucas can ... so can I.
Bo : You go back to sleep , okay ? [ Smooches ] Sweet dreams .
Zach : Daddy , tell me a story .
Bo : A story . Okay . A short one . How about a Curious George story ?
Zach : No . Make one up .
Bo : [ Chuckling ] Make one up ? All right . Let s see . Once upon a time , there was a prince who lived in the Kingdom of Salem with his princess bride -- the most beautiful princess in all the kingdom . They loved each other very much , and they were very , very happy together . But sometimes they had disagreements , like , um , the prince wanted the drawbridge up . The princess wanted it down . And , um , sometimes when they had these disagreements , they were so loud that it woke up their little boy -- the tiny man prince . But this did nt mean that , uh , they did nt love each other . In fact , they loved each other more and more every day . And you know what ?
Zach : What ?
Bo : The tiny man prince went back to bed , and he had the best dreams ever . And they all lived happily ever after .
Sophie : Well , I think it s time the two of us headed to our next stop , do nt you ?
Lucas : Definitely . If there s one thing I love , it s late - night burgers at buddy s . Come on . Whoa . Whoa . Wait a minute . I do nt believe it .
Sophie : What ?
Lucas : My brother and Nicole sharing a night out on the town without Sami .
Sophie : And why is that so strange ?
Lucas : It s a long story , but , uh , the three of them are kind of involved .
Sophie : [ Chuckling ] What ?
Lucas : Like I said , it s a long story . Come on . Let s go .
Sophie : Wait . Um , before we leave , I ve been dying to do this all night . And , uh , since we re really alone and your ex is nt watching ...
Lucas : [ Exhales deeply ] Wow . You re a really good kisser .
Sophie : You re not so bad yourself .
Sami : [ Sighs ] Wow . I need a drink .
Austin : Well , thank you . I rather enjoyed that .
Nicole : My pleasure .
Austin : It looks like our table s ready .
Nicole : Oh . Uh , thank you . Ohh ! Oh , God .
Sami : [ Scoffs ] Oh , no way , Nicole . I m not gon na let you get away with this .
Man : Here s the books you requested , sir .
Jack : [ Exhales sharply ] Thank you . [ Exhales sharply ] This is it . It s what I ve been looking for . The answers .
Jennifer : Jack !
Jack : Huh ? Oh .
Jennifer : What are you doing here ?
Jack : Jennifer .
Jennifer : What is this ?
Jack : N - nothing .
Jennifer : Oh , my gosh . I ca nt believe you re doing this .
Mimi : What kind of monster am I ? You must think I m a horrible person . You must have lost all respect for me .
Man : You re gon na have a lot more power than you need .
Jack : : It s really gon na blow em away .
Jack : What s wrong ? You look like you ve seen a ghost .
Jennifer : I know exactly what s going on .
Marlena : I m going to stay faithful to John . I m going to honor my wedding vows .
Alex : What ?

### Dialogue:
Luis : How am I going to tell Sheridan that her son is dead ?
Fancy : We ll find a way .
Luis : This is going to kill her . It will rip her heart into pieces . And all she s dreamed about is getting Marty back from Beth .
Luis : Oh , my little boy , he must have been terrified . { Marty ! My son s in that car .
Fancy : No , Luis , you ca nt go ! You ll get burned . You could be killed .
Luis : I ve to get him out of there .
Fancy : [ Yelling ] No , Luis !
Luis : Daddy s coming ! }
Luis : My son , my son is burned alive .
Fancy : Shh , do nt think that way . He s in heaven now . And there is no pain there .
Luis : Yeah , at least Beth s in hell where she belongs . Oh , Sheridan , it s going to kill her . It s going to kill her . Oh , what have I done ?
Fancy : Do nt -- do nt blame yourself . Look at me . Luis , this was nt your fault .
Luis : This is totally my fault . If I had just believed Sheridan when she insisted that Marty was our son . No , I could nt do that . Then Beth kidnapped him , and now he s dead . Oh , God , you know , I went along with the dream that Sheridan and I would be back together , that we would be a family again . You know , I got to stop doing this . I got to stop . Ok , just need to be strong , right ? Sheridan needs my support . Oh , like it was nt bad enough that she s going to find out that Marty is dead , and now she s going to find out that her father had a hand in this , too .
Fancy : My Grampy ? What are you saying ?
Luis : Oh , that s right . You do nt -- you do nt know yet .
Fancy : Luis , my grandfather is in a coma . He could nt possibly have had anything to do with this nightmare --
Luis : Alistair is not in a coma , not anymore . He is -- he s alive and well , and he s out there pulling all the strings .
Theresa : Where are they ? [ Grunts ]
Theresa : Ethan , any minute , our lives are going to change forever . Crane security is going to walk through that door and they are bringing someone special , any second now .
Ethan : And you think that someone special is J.T. Cornell ?
Theresa : Yes , it is J.T. and he s going to confirm everything that I ve told you . He s going to prove to you that Gwen and Rebecca outed you as a Bennett , that she has been lying to you , Ethan , for years .
Ethan : I wo nt believe it , Theresa .
Theresa : Well , you have to believe it . You ll be forced to believe it . And then you re going to realize that your marriage to Gwen is a fraud and you ll come back to me . And then we can make up all those years of happiness Gwen stole from us .
Whitney : I mean it , Alistair . Get away from the chalice or I will kill you .
Alistair : You do nt have the guts .
Chad : Shoot him , Whitney .
Paloma : Shoot the old man dead .
Nun : Whitney , you must stop the evil - doer . The Pope , the church , all of mankind is at stake .
Simone : Kill him . Kill him before Alistair gets a chance to use the chalice to kill us all .
Alistair : No , you wo nt shoot me , Whitney , you re the innocent one , weak and pathetic .
Chad : Damn it , Whitney , shoot him .
Nun : Stop him --
Whitney : I wo nt let you win , Alistair . I wo nt let you destroy us . [ Alistair laughs ]
Whitney : Oh , my God . What have I done ?
Chad : Whitney !
Paloma : My God , she really did it .
Chad : Whitney , wake up , baby . Are you ok ?
Whitney : Chad ?
Chad : You did it . You did it .
Whitney : Oh , my God , what have I done ? I shot Alistair . I took a life . Oh , my God , this is the greatest sin of all .
Nun : No , no sin , not when you re serving God .
Nun : The devil .
Paloma : Dios mio . It s unbelievable .
Paloma : No . I ca nt believe this .
Whitney : What ? No . No , no , that s impossible .
Paloma : Alistair s gone .
Whitney : But how ? I shot him . I know I did .
Chad : No , he has to be here . I mean , how could he have just disappeared ?
Nun : Evil , it is evil .
Simone : No , no , there has to be a logical explanation , a secret entrance , a hidden door , something .
Whitney : No , he has to be here .
Nun : Wait . No , no , we re too late .
Whitney : How do you know ?
Nun : God s gift allows me to see many things . The evil one has escaped .
Alistair : The stupid fools . They think they can stop me . No one can . No one .
Ethan : Theresa , look . You always , always seem to pin your hopes on these freakish turns of circumstance , ok ? And you know what happens , usually ? Your hopes get blown out of the water . That s what happens .
Theresa : No , no , not this time . J.T. is going to walk through that door . And the moment that he does , it s the beginning of our new lives together . [ Knock on door ]
Theresa : Oh . Thank you , God . Thank you , God . Thank you , God . See ? Now you re going to see that Gwen s not the good woman you think she is . Thank God you are here .
Gwen : Well , what a welcome , Theresa . Hi .
Ethan : Oh , my God . What are you --
Gwen : I missed you , I missed you , I missed you . I had to come and see you . Oh , God , it s so wonderful to see you .
Nun : Do nt look , it s a waste of time . The evil one has escaped .
Whitney : There is a secret passageway , but -- no , there s no way . I shot Alistair .
Chad : Look , here s where the bullet hit . Whitney , you must have -- you must have missed .
Simone : Damn it .
Nun : Do nt curse in this blessed place .
Simone : I m sorry , Sister .
Paloma : So , when Whitney fainted , he must have seized the moment and got away before any of us could notice . He is a devil .
Whitney : How could I have been such a fool ? This is all my fault .
Chad : Hey . You did nt know , ok ? You re too good to recognize such evil . Look , look at me . Let s count our blessings that you re here with me in one piece . Whitney , I was so scared for you . I mean , I searched this city from top to bottom .
Whitney : I know . And I could ve come to you . I could ve helped you , but he told me not to .
Chad : You know , when we spoke down in the catacombs , I really thought you were going to hurt yourself .
Whitney : I almost did . That monk -- Alistair --convinced me to sacrifice myself . Chad , he could ve killed me right then . Why did he let me live ?
Chad : Dear God . Whitney , what has he done to you ?
Whitney : He was so persuasive . I mean , he even had me feeling sorry for him . He said that we were always going to be sinners , Chad , and that one of us had to die to prevent us from sinning again . And then , when he did nt kill me , he said if I did nt help him , I would nt be able to atone for my sin of incest and that both of our souls would be condemned to hell forever . I ca nt even believe I believed such a strange story like that .
Chad : So everything you did was to protect me .
Whitney : I could nt let anything happen to you .
Chad : You ve sacrificed so much , Whitney .
Whitney : And you for me .
Chad : Only it was never enough . If only I was able to do more .
Ethan : I ca nt believe you re -- you re here .
Man : You heard me . Get the word out .
Theresa : Ok , when we spoke on the phone earlier , this is the person that you were bringing up ?
Man : That s right .
Theresa : Ok , what happened to J.T. Cornell , because I gave orders for Crane security to find him .
Man : As far as I know , he s still out there somewhere .
Theresa : Go , go , go , please . Wait in the hall , please . And wait until I give you further orders . Go , please .
Man : Yeah , whatever .
Theresa : Well , why was he so rude ?
Ethan : How did you get here so quickly ?
Gwen : You know , my mother still is married to Julian . So , one phone call , I was on the Crane jet .
Theresa : I wish I would ve known . I could ve called the pilot myself .
Gwen : Yeah , to cancel the flight , no doubt . Honey , I was worried . I ve heard all these horror stories about what s going on in Rome . I had to come here to support you .
Theresa : Yeah , right . Your mom sent you here so you could shut up J.T. Cornell .
Gwen : Is she still on that ?
Ethan : She wo nt stop .
Theresa : No , I m not going to stop . And you know what , Gwen ? J.T. told Ethan that you and your slut mother were the ones who sent the information to his paper .
Ethan : Ok , hey , whoa , enough . Listen , Gwen , I do nt believe a word that guy said . I mean , Theresa offered him 10 million bucks to say that .
Gwen : Honey , it s fine . I m used to fending off her lies , but I am curious about one thing , though . You know , when I wanted to know your room number at the desk , they said you were staying with Theresa . Why is that ?
Ethan : I ll tell you why that is . There were no rooms available , apparently , and I ve been sleeping on the sofa . And when we all found out that we were in danger , we all agreed it s not a good idea for any of us to be alone .
Gwen : Aha , so you decided that you were going to protect Theresa ?
Ethan : Yes . Nothing happened , Gwen .
Gwen : Did nt say it did , just not surprised that Theresa would take advantage of any opportunity to try to get close to you .
Ethan : Look , it s been a terrible situation for everyone .
Gwen : I know . I just wish you would ve chosen to protect Simone .
Ethan : Honey , we ve all been in danger here .
Gwen : Of course you have , especially after what Sheridan found out .
Ethan : Sh -- what , what are you talking about ?
Gwen : What , you guys do nt know ?
Ethan : No , know what ?
Gwen : Ethan , Sheridan went to Alistair s nursing home , or what she thought was his nursing home , but Alistair s not there . He s not in a coma .
Theresa : Wait , wait , what ?
Ethan : What , are you -- that s impossible .
Gwen : Alistair is not in a coma . The whole thing was a trick .
Ethan : Are you telling me that Alistair is up and around and spreading his evil all over the place ?
Gwen : Yep , he s perfectly fine .
Ethan : Oh , my God , we were right . We were right . I mean , we all thought that this plot to have all of us here in Rome had Alistair s fingerprints all over it , but we did nt think it could be possible because he was in a coma .
Gwen : Everything that has happened here leads right back to Alistair .
Ethan : And why ? And what does he want from us ?
Fancy : No , it ca nt be true . My grandfather has nothing to do with this . He s sick . He s in a coma . The nursing home confirmed it .
Luis : Fancy , I m sorry . But he s out of the coma , ok ? That is , if he ever was even in one . And the guy who s lying in the hospital bed is just some other poor patient who was in a coma . And Alistair had his face fitted with a latex mask to make it look like himself . Just think about it . It s perfect . If we all thought Alistair was helpless , lying in some hospital bed , he could be out there free roaming the world without us worrying about what he was up to .
Fancy : I ca nt believe this .
Luis : Fancy , Sheridan got the doctor who s in charge of the nursing home to admit what Alistair made him do .
Fancy : So , he is ok ?
Luis : Yeah , he s ok . He s ok , all right . He s ok to terrorize the rest of us .
Fancy : I m sorry , Luis . This is just really hard for me to accept . I mean , I know all of you hate him . And I have to admit after what I ve heard , I suppose I should , too . But he has been nothing but he has been nothing but kind to me . Why did nt he tell me ? I ve been so worried about him .
Luis : All right , look . I am not going to tell you how you are supposed to feel about him , but do nt expect any sympathy from me about that bastard , ok ?
Fancy : If -- if you are right about all of this , why ? What does my grandfather have to gain by torturing all of us like this ?
Luis : I do nt know . I do nt know , ok ? But I promise you one thing . It s only going to get worse . Whatever it is he is up to , it can not be good .
Gwen : So , Sheridan thought something looked strange about Alistair s face . When she went up to take a closer look , his face was a mask . She pulled it off . It was a mask that was fitted on another coma patient .
Theresa : I -- I -- I ca nt believe this . I just do nt even want to believe this .
Gwen : Alistair is alive and kicking .
Theresa : I m going to kill the doctor of that nursing home .
Ethan : We should ve known . We should ve trusted our suspicions . It s a brilliant plan . Who would have suspected that Alistair was healthy when his body was lying there unconscious for everyone to see ?
Theresa : I think I m going to be sick . Are you really sure that this is true ?
Gwen : Listen , if you do nt believe me , ask Sheridan because she saw it with her own two eyes . She was trying to call Luis when I was leaving and she could nt get through to him from Harmony . That s why I wanted to get here as quickly as I could . Alistair s here in Rome . He s just lying in wait before he strikes .
Ethan : Well , honey , you know what ? You should ve stayed at home where it s safe .
Gwen : No , I wanted to come here and help . When a husband and wife are in trouble , they stick together .
Theresa : And who s watching my daughter ?
Gwen : My daughter is safe up at the mansion with the nanny . Honey , I ve got a really bad feeling that something horrible is about to happen .
Ethan : But what ? I mean , if Alistair went to the trouble to fake his own coma , God knows he s probably up to something really awful .
Theresa : I just -- I -- I simply can not believe this .
Gwen : You need to believe it . Because your loving husband is alive and kicking . And I can guarantee that when he reveals himself , the first thing he s going to want is you , back in his bed .
Ethan : Gwen , come on .
Theresa : I d rather be dead .
Fancy : Say you re right about all of this .
Luis : Oh , it s all true .
Fancy : It makes no sense . What s the upside for my grandfather ? What could he do in secret he could nt do out in the open ? He s one of the most powerful men on the planet .
Luis : Oh , come on , Fancy . This is classic Alistair .
Fancy : No .
Luis : Admit it . I heard about New Year s . You were there . This is the same sort of sick plot that he loves to get involved in . I mean , it s perfect . Think about it . We all think that he s lying helpless in a coma . All the while , he is just drawing us closer and closer to whatever evil plan he has .
Fancy : But why ? What does he want ?
Luis : Well , that s easy . He wants to destroy us all .
Fancy : No , no , my Grampy loves me .
Luis : Fine , maybe he loves you , but certainly not all of us .
Fancy : I need to talk to him . Where is he ?
Luis : What , you think if I knew that I would be here ?
Fancy : He is in Rome , right ? He must be . Why else would he have drawn us all here ?
Luis : I do nt know . I mean , certainly he could be in Rome . No doubt if he was , he would be in disguise . And he could be anyone , anywhere . Maybe he was watching us when --
Fancy : What ? What is it ?
Chad : What about him ?
Luis : I do nt know . There s something familiar about him . Hey , you ! Stop ! }
Luis : Oh , no .
Fancy : What ?
Luis : Alistair is here in Rome . I saw him . Fancy , I am sure that it was him . Now all we have to do is find him .
Whitney : Chad , I m so sorry .
Chad : Shh . Hey , you re safe in my arms . That s all that matters . That s all that ever matters .
Man : Open the door .
Nun : Oh , it s a Swiss guard . Go , let him in .
Whitney : Your Holiness .
Nun : Bless us , Father . We have been hard at work against a great evil .
Pope : What has happened here ?
Nun : What we feared , Father . The deceiver was here . And he had the chalice .
Pope : Gott in himmel . I feared as much . How did this man of evil break this unbreakable code and steal this precious relic ?
Whitney : Heavenly Father . Please forgive me . It s all my fault . Alistair told me lies for weeks and weeks and I believed him . I know it does nt look like it right now , but I am a novice and he appeared to me in the convent and duped me into believing that he was God himself . And then later on , he had me believing that he was acting for God to help the holy men of the church . I was a fool .
Pope : The lies of the devil that come out of his mouth are as sweet as honey .
Whitney : I did nt know . I swear , I thought I was doing good , not helping to destroy the church .
Pope : You are the innocent one that Sister told us would come .
Nun : Si , Father .
Pope : Calm yourself . You ve done no wrong . The deceiver used you as we knew he would . Where is he now ?
Chad : We tried to get him , but he escaped .
Pope : You saved the chalice .
Nun : It s in the fire . The deceiver tried to read its secret inscriptions .
Pope : Let us thank God that he failed . Bring it to me .
Whitney : No , the chalice is gone .
Alistair : They re blind , all of them . They are not even aware that they are in the presence of the oldest relic the church ever possessed . And now , the chalice is mine . They should turn their backs on that altar and pray to me . I am made God on earth . [ Laughing ]
Ethan : Well , you know , we ca nt just sit here . So , I -- I m going to call Luis and make sure he knows what s going on with Alistair . Is it all right if I leave you two ladies here alone for a minute ?
Gwen : Honey , of course it is . At a time like this , we all need to stick together .
Gwen : Come on , are nt you even going to ask me if I had a nice flight ?
Theresa : Knock it off , Gwen . We both know that you are not here because you re concerned about Ethan or Alistair . You re here because you are frightened to death .
Gwen : Do I look frightened ? I do nt think so .
Theresa : Well , you should be , because I am really close to finding J.T. Cornell . And when I do , you and your none - too - well - preserved mother are dead meat . He s going to expose you both as the liars that you are .
Gwen : Oh , you are absurd . I ca nt even believe what comes out of your mouth .
Theresa : I am bringing you down , bitch .
Gwen : Oh , such -- such gutter talk , Theresa . Listen , you can curse the hotel down if you want . I do nt really care , because it is so clear that Ethan does nt believe a word you say . And he s not going to listen to J.T. either , if you can find him , which you wo nt be able to because he s long gone by now .
Theresa : Well now , if you really believed that , then you would nt have flown on your broomstick all the way to Rome , right ? You re worried and you should be , because you ca nt stop me from finding J.T. Cornell . I ve got Crane security searching for him . And I have offered to pay $ 50 million to any man or woman who brings him to me . $ 50 million , Gwen , you should think about that . You should think of the motivation . Pretty soon , J.T. and I will be buying you a one - way ticket to divorce court .
Alistair : Oh , balance is off . I should blind a few more tenors . [ Chanting continues ]
Alistair : Oh , if they only knew that this chalice could give me the power to return their sight to them ... if I wanted to . [ Chuckles ]
Alistair : It s you . I said to never come here unless it was an emergency . What is it , Mr. Cornell ?
J.T. : Good God , you re alive .
Chad : Alistair must have grabbed the chalice when he escaped .
Pope : This is a disaster . It must be found . The chalice holds the greatest power of mankind . But it must be used for good . In the wrong hands , well , it could mean the destruction of the world .
Theresa : $ 50 million to the lucky person who brings J.T. to me . And you know Crane security only hires the best . So , I do nt know . Any minute , there s going to be a knock at that door and life as you know it will be over .
Gwen : Ooh , Theresa , I guess I would be frightened if I had nt taken steps to protect myself .
Theresa : You ca nt do anything , Gwen .
Gwen : Really ? You know , you are so obsessed with your own personal ends that you have nt thought this thing through , have you ?
Theresa : Such as ?
Gwen : What , are you not listening ? Theresa , Alistair is alive , which means that you are no longer in control of Crane Industries . Why on earth would Crane security take orders from you ?
Theresa : Because Crane security does nt know that Alistair is alive and well . So , until they do , they work for me .
Gwen : Oh , oops .
Theresa : Oops , what ?
Gwen : See , I just got so excited riding up in the elevator with that Crane security guard , I kind of told him everything . So , by now , all of Crane security knows Alistair is alive and well .
Ethan : Bad news , I ca nt get through to Luis or Noah . I think that weird lightning storm shorted out everybody s cell phone .
Ethan : Theresa , what s wrong ?
Theresa : Gwen . She s trying to stop me from finding J.T. Cornell . She is trying to stop you from learning the truth .
Gwen : Honey , do I really have to stand here and listen to this nonsense ? She is just upset that I told the Crane security guard that Alistair is alive .
Theresa : Oh , man . Where s that man in the hall ? I gave orders for him to stay right here .
Gwen : It s no surprise , Theresa . Now that Alistair is back from the dead , why would they take orders from you ?
Theresa : You witch .
Gwen : And now that Alistair has all of his power back , Theresa , it looks like you have none at all .
Fancy : If you saw my grandfather , why did nt you say anything ?
Luis : He was in disguise .
Fancy : Well , are you sure you ve seen him ?
Luis : No . We can call it a hunch , ok ? The man was dressed as a monk .
Fancy : Luis , this is Rome . You ca nt throw a rock without hitting a monk or a priest or a nun --
Luis : Look , I am telling you it was nt a monk . Ok ? I had -- God , I had the strangest feeling that it was Alistair . I knew it . I knew it was him .
Fancy : What if I have seen him ? What if he saw me and walked right past me ?
Luis : All right . I m sure I ll find that monk inside . Oh , my God , that s it . I know where to find him . I know where to find Alistair .
J.T. : You re supposed to be half - dead in a coma .
Alistair : That s what I wanted everyone to believe . Why are you here ?
J.T. : A long time ago , you told me if I was ever in trouble to go to this church . Did nt think I would actually find you .
Alistair : Well , this is your lucky day , then .
J.T. : Do they ever shut up ?
Alistair : Why do nt you just stick to the point .
J.T. : Yes , yes , sir , this is an emergency I need your help right now . Theresa has an army of people out there looking for me . I have no safe place to go . I ca nt escape .
Alistair : Well , perhaps you did nt try hard enough .
J.T. : No , no , no , you do nt understand . Every way I turn I am being chased and followed . It s getting crazy . Theresa , she is like this bulldog .
Alistair : Hey , hey . You are speaking about my wife .
J.T. : Yes , yes , bad image , but it s serious . In trying to escape , I nearly killed Ethan Winthrop --
Alistair : What do you mean ? You do nt kill anyone . Do nt kill anyone . Those people live and die on my command and so do you . Did you understand that ? Is that clear ?
J.T. : Yes , it s clear . But , sir , wo nt you please help me get out of Rome before Theresa finds me .
J.T. : Sir ?
Alistair : Can I help you ? Possible . I think I can do anything now . [ Laughing ]
Nun : I -- I can feel the evil . But I can not see where he is . But I do know the deceiver , the man named Alistair , he does possess the chalice .
Paloma : I could have told her that .
Simone : Shh , the Pope .
Pope : The chalice must be returned to our care . There is no other option . The power of the chalice is incalculable .
Nun : Before he stole it , he tried to read the inscription . But he has not been able to finish it .
Pope : Good . That means he s not yet in possession of the holy power . The chalice we must retrieve before he reads the entire inscription . It is the only hope for mankind .
Whitney : It s that powerful ?
Pope : If this man Alistair reads all the words , he could destroy the church forever .
Paloma : Wow , did you see his shoes ?
Simone : Fabulous .
Pope : Look deep within you . Can you not see the location of the chalice ?
Nun : No .
Pope : Then our work is all the harder . We must find it .
Paloma : What does the inscription say on the chalice ?
Whitney : Paloma .
Pope : No , this is a good question . I do not know , my dear . I never dared try to read it . The temptation to use such a power is too much for any man , myself included .
Paloma : But they re just words , right ?
Pope : Is there anything more powerful than words ? These ancient words unlock forces not seen in this world since the days of the old testament , when God fought the forces of the dark one to a standstill . If this evil man learns the entire inscription , he will be imbued with more power than any mortal man can bear . He will have the strength of God and the strength to destroy the works of God , even this very planet .
Chad : Well then we need to find him , and find him now .
J.T. : Mr. Crane ? Did you hear me ? Theresa . Theresa is looking for me . All of Crane security is looking for me . You know what it ll mean if she finds me .
Alistair : Theresa , my Theresa . Lovely , is nt she ?
J.T. : Sir ?
Alistair : You know , so young , so tender , so defiant . Before , when I was just a mere man , I even had to struggle to overwhelm her , but now , I m going to win all the time . I m going to miss the chase , though . You see absolute power does have its drawbacks . But you know , it s going to be exciting to have her back in my bed again . Just think of the things I can make her do . And I m sure she is going to be willing to obey the commands of [ Chuckles ] a God . [ Sighs ]
Theresa : All right , the land lines work .
Gwen : So , who are you calling ?
Theresa : I m calling Crane security , ok ? I am going to talk to the head of security and they are going to fix this situation . They re going to put a man outside that door and they are going to double the number of men looking for J.T. Cornell .
Ethan : Theresa , do nt go overboard .
Theresa : I am not going overboard , ok ? This is my life we are talking about . And I m going to prove to you that woman , your wife , is a liar if it s the last thing I do .
Gwen : Do I have to stand here and keep listening to this ?
Theresa : Yes , hello , this is Theresa Crane calling . Can you connect me with Crowley , please ? What do you mean he is not going to take my call ? This is Theresa Crane , his boss .
Ethan : Theresa , what did they say ?
Theresa : They said that there was this e - mail , a worldwide e - mail that says that Alistair is alive and well and that my orders -- my orders are supposed to be canceled .
Ethan : I m sorry .
Theresa : That means nobody is looking for J.T. Cornell .
Gwen : Why would they waste their time chasing phantoms for you ?
Ethan : Gwen , there s no reason to twist the knife , all right ?
Gwen : I am sorry , Ethan . It s just a little too tempting , because usually I am the one getting tortured .
Theresa : My plans and my sacrifices .
Ethan : Excuse me , but what if Alistair wants retribution here ? I mean , Theresa , you could be in a lot of danger .
Gwen : Honey , I think things are looking up . We know that Alistair is behind this mystery . It s always better to fight a known adversary , right ? Look , I got us the room next door . Let s go check it out , ok ?
Ethan : Gwen , she could be in a lot of danger , ok ? Alistair could come after her .
Gwen : Alistair is not going to hurt her . He wants to keep her safe in his bed forever .
Ethan : Theresa , I ll be next door if you need me , all right ?
Gwen : Let s just go , because I know Theresa s got a whole lot of thinking to do . Now that her latest set of lies have nt panned out , I know she s got to plan something else . Unless , of course , you think you can get more mileage out of this whole J.T. Cornell nonsense .
Theresa : Oh , this is nt over , Gwen , not by a long shot . Because I am going to find J.T. and I m going to prove the truth . And I m going to get Ethan back . I have to .
Luis : If I m right , I know where Alistair is . And he is not getting away from me this time .
Fancy : Well , I m coming with you .
Luis : No .
Fancy : Why ? Beth is dead . She ca nt hurt me . Whatever my grandfather s done , he d never hurt me .
Luis : Maybe not .
Fancy : Well , what is the problem ?
Luis : You just do nt get it , do you ? You still love Alistair .
Fancy : So ? That does nt mean I ca nt help you find him .
Luis : I do nt just want to find him . I want to kill him . And when I do , I do nt think you want to be there for it .
Fancy : Luis .
Luis : He killed my son . So I kill him . An eye for an eye . A life for a life .
Fancy : I have to know the truth about my grandfather .
Luis : Come with me , then .
Noah : Theresa , all I can think about right now is killing Alistair .
Alistair : Very soon , you will release your secrets .
### Summary:
| Gwen arrived in Rome today , bringing bad news for Theresa , and loving being able to tell her about it . Since Alistair is still alive , Theresa is no longer in charge , and Crane security wo nt keep searching for JT , among other disasters for her . Ethan simply refuses to believe Gwen is anything but angelic , even tho he sees and hears her bedeveling Theresa . Fancy does nt want to believe her Grampy is in Rome , causing problems for everyone , but when Luis figures out where he probably is and wants to go get him , she wants to go with him . He is nt happy with that , since he plans to kill the old man and she wo nt like seeing that . Whitney shoots at Alistair , and he falls to the floor , but when they finally get around to turning the figure over , the man is gone , and so is the chalice . The Pope comes in and lets them know they have to find him and the cup , or it will mean the end of the church and mankind , too . Alistair headed to the monastery with the blind monks , and reveled in possessing the chalice and the power it will give him . JT showed up , surprised to find Al instead of a priest , then asked for help getting away from Theresa . Al seemed distracted by the thought of once again having his young , sexy wife in his bed , and enjoys the thought of what it will be like with all his new powers . |

Doug : It s so awful . Marlena being shot at her own wedding .

Eric : They got a heartbeat again and they took her to surgery . Just -- and now we wait .
Rafe : You get sami s statement ?
Hope : Oh yeah , I got it-- after she accused me of being the villain .
Rafe : What d you do ?
Hope : Oh , what did nt I do , according to her . I m keeping her from going to the hospital . I m keeping her from going after kristen . God knows , I m sure I m also responsible for her bad hair days or her cable going out .
Rafe : So she does nt take the blame for anything , huh ?
Hope : No , not even sleeping with you .
Paul : There s something I need to know ? [ Laughs softly ] It sounds serious .
Will : It is . Paul , you are so important to me .
Paul : And you re more than important to me . You re everything . Will , whatever it is , you can say it . Just tell me what s on your mind .
Will : Husbands for life .
Sonny : [ Laughs softly ] Yes . You remembered .
Susan : [ Shrieking ]
Sonny : Hey , hey , hey . What is it ? What is it ? What s wrong ? Take it easy . Take a deep breath .
Susan : [ Hyperventilating ] I just -- I had a nightmare . I had an awful nightmare . You know , it got me so scared . It s so bad .
Sonny : Okay , okay . Okay , hey , hey . But you know what ? Hey , susan ?
Susan : Huh ?
Sonny : The nightmare is over .
Susan : No ! No . No it s not , sonny . It s not over . See , see , my nightmares are nt just bad dreams . They are premonitions .
Sonny : Okay , well , can you tell me about it ?
Susan : Okay . One , it was about a person . It was about a person and I think they re about to do something-- something terrible .
Sonny : Who ?
Susan : Kristen dimera .
Kristen : Eve s fate is in your hands , brady . Think hard .
Brady : You know what I think ?
Kristen : Hm ?
Brady : I think that you are insane .
Kristen : [ Chuckles ]
Brady : I m not gon na betray her . I m not gon na do it . I m not gon na give you what you want . I am not gon na sleep with you .
Kristen : Would you like to say goodbye to eve before I give the order to kill her ?
Male announcer : Like sands through the hourglass , so are the days of our lives .
Will : [ Sighs ] Okay . So when I first came back to salem , you know I was overwhelmed . There were all these expectations coming at me from every direction , and , you know , I felt a lot of pressure to remember my past .
Paul : Yeah , I know . It was rough .
Will : Yeah , well , I mean , not just for me . I mean , sonny left you to try and , you know , make things work with he and I--
Jennifer : Hey . I m sorry . I did nt mean to interrupt . I was-- have you seen eric ?
Will : No , he went to check on marlena .
Paul : Yeah , have you heard anything ?
Jennifer : No , just that she s still in surgery . You know , she should be dancing right now , and laughing , and drinking champagne , but instead , she s fighting for her life because of kristen dimera .
Will : She wo nt get away with it .
Jennifer : I know , but I just want the police or I want brady to find her so she ca nt hurt anyone else .
Paul : The cops are on it . They re out there , but brady s not -- he s not out there looking for kristen . He s here .
Jennifer : He is ?
Paul : Yeah , yeah . I just ran into him at the police station . He said he was heading to the hospital . He was in a rush to meet up with dad and belle .
Jennifer : No , I was just with him . I did nt see brady .
Paul : Okay , that s strange because he was definitely in a hurry to get somewhere .
Kristen : Yes , it s me . How about the prisoner ? You can dispose of her .
Brady : Kristen , stop . DonT. DonT.
Kristen : Hold on . I ll call you back . [ Keypad beeps ] Well , I thought you would reconsider .
Brady : Listen to me . There s no reason to bring eve into this . Let her go . Let her go . We ll work this out .
Kristen : Mm , your loyalty to eve would be touching if it was nt that I was once the object of your devotion .
Brady : You have my attention . Okay ? Just-- we ll talk this through .
Kristen : Have I not made myself clear ? I do nt wanna talk . I want to feel our connection .
Brady : Do nt you get it ? It s over . This is over .
Kristen : [ Scoffs ] Uh - uh , you say that , but I know what s true . You said so yourself .
Brady : I dont-- I do nt even know what you re talking about .
Kristen : When I went through that window in italy-- when I went through that window , remember ? I heard you calling out my name . And in that moment , I heard the fear in your voice , that you thought you lost me . So can you honestly say that when I died that you did nt mourn what we had together ? In terms of treating sensitivity ,
Doug : It s food from the reception . There s plenty to go around .
Eric : That s very thoughtful of you both . Thank you .
Julie : Eric , just in case anybody should ask-- is it true ? Your sister shot your mother ?
Eric : Yes . It s not her fault . This is all on kristen dimera .
Doug : Kristen ? I thought she was dead .
Eric : We all did . And somehow she survived falling out of a window , and she came looking for payback .
Julie : But how did sami point a gun at your mother ? Kristen -- she tossed the gun at sami , and she claimed that ej was still alive .
Doug : What ?
Eric : Kristen said if she shot john , she would take her to see ej . If not , she d never see him again . I tried to take the gun . It fired . Bullet hit our mom .
Doug : Ah .
Julie : Kristen -- she must be some kind of a monster . [ Sighs ] Poor eric . We re praying for marlena .
Eric : I better go .
Susan : You know what ? Someone I know is in trouble . I just do nt know who it is .
Sonny : Okay . Okay , susan , um , I can explain your premonition probably , okay ? But you re gon na need to calm down first .
Susan : Okay , okay , okay . Oh , my god , I know who it is ! I know !
Sonny : You do ?
Susan : Yes , I do . It s will . He s in danger .
Sonny : Will ?
Susan : Will , yes . Something s bad -- I mean , I could feel it in my bones .
Sonny : Okay , well , we just saw will a little while ago , remember ? And he s fine .
Susan : You sure about that ?
Sonny : I m sure . If he was in trouble , I d be the first person to help , okay ? So , I m sure . You can relax .
Susan : [ Exhaling deeply ] Okay . [ Giggles ] Ooh . Thank goodness . You know , I have these premonitions and sometimes , they just get all mixed up . You know , I once-- I once had a premonition-- real strong one too-- that I was gon na win the lottery , but it turned out to be a chicken dinner at the local barbecue . But you know what ? Will -- he definitely has hit jackpot .
Sonny : Why do you say that ?
Susan : [ Sniffs ] Because , um , paul , of course . See , they have something really special . And I hope that they re together right now , because kristen dimera wo nt hurt will if he s got that hunk of a burning love to protect him .
Paul : That s strange , because I suggested that I come here with brady , and he asked me to stay at the station for any word on kristen .
Jennifer : Is there any word ?
Paul : No .
Jennifer : Listen , I m sure brady will turn up . I really need to go find eric .
Will : Hey , can we sit down and talk for a minute ?
Paul : Yeah , I still do nt get why brady did nt showed up here .
Will : I -- I do nt know . Maybe he found a lead on kristen .
Paul : Maybe , yeah . I m gon na send a quick text to him . [ Sighs ] You know what ? Will , I m so sorry . I just -- I do nt have a good feeling about this . I m gon na head back to the station , see what I can find out , okay ? Can we talk later ?
Will : Sure , yeah . Sure . Keep me posted .
Paul : I will . Thank you .
Brady : What you heard in my voice when you fell was shock . Nothing more .
Kristen : No sadness ? None ?
Brady : Why would I be sad ? Kristen , after all the things that you ve done to the people that I love-- you ruined my brother s life , you ripped my son out of theresa s body .
Kristen : You may not believe this , but there was a time that I felt genuine remorse for the pain I caused , especially the pain I caused you .
Brady : Yeah , right , right . Sure , I believe you .
Kristen : No , it s true . It s true . It s a miracle that I survived . But you know what ? I learned something .
Brady : What was that ? You should always wear a helmet ?
Kristen : Oh , come on . I m serious , brady . When I woke up ... I was-- I was broken and I was bloody . But I was still alive , and I realized that there was a god . And he was -- he was merciful . And if he can forgive me , why ca nt you ?
Hope : Oh , that sami-- she is really a piece of work . I mean , she just never ever is at fault for anything , for nothing . She pumped a bullet into her own mother .
Rafe : Allegedly .
Hope : What ? Excuse me ?
Rafe : But we were nt there . So we can only take what the eyewitnesses tell us into account , which is it was a very volatile situation instigated by kristen .
Hope : Dont -- please , just ... [ Sighs ] Just do nt defend her , okay , to me .
Rafe : I m not .
Hope : You sure ? Because it sounds like you re making excuses for her . It sounds like ... [ Sighs ] It sounds like you are making excuses for the woman who just tried to convince me that she did me a favor by sleeping with my ex - fiancé .
Rafe : Okay . Maybe I should ve taken her statement .
Hope : So you can let her off the hook again ? With uncontrolled moderate - to - severe eczema ,
Jennifer : There you are . Hey . I ve been looking for you . Any word on marlena ?
Eric : No . Not yet .
Jennifer : How you holding up ? Well , what started out as a beautiful day has now got my mother fighting for her life and my sister in police custody and me , well , I really do nt know what I m doing .
Jennifer : I know what we re gon na do . We re gon na go to the chapel . We re gon na pray . Come on .
Rafe : Listen , I promise you , I am not trying to justify sami s behavior , or the way that she has treated you . All right ?
Hope : [ Sighs ] Good . Because if you had , just-- I might implode .
Rafe : No , do nt , hope . Do nt implode , okay ? I ca nt control sami . No one can , okay ? I can only take responsibility for my own actions . I made a mistake . It was an awful mistake . And it s one that I will always regret , all right ?
Hope : It just never should have happened .
Rafe : No . No , it should nt have , but-- well , we have worked very hard . We re back to where we are now , all right ? Let s not do this . We re gon na take a step back because sami s back in town ? No .
Will : Oh , my god . I love you .
Sonny : I love you too .
Susan : I was real worried about will making a life here for himself , you know , since he lost his memory . But , you know , he s doing just fine . [ Drinks pouring ] In fact , I think I m gon na be back in salem for a little celebration pretty soon .
Sonny : What do you mean ?
Susan : Maybe dr . Marlena evans and john black will inspire will and paul , and they ll tie the knot . And they re gon na live happily ever after .
Sonny : Do nt be so sure .
Brady : [ Scoffs ] Seriously expect me to believe that you found religion ? Really ? After I fell out that window , I woke up in a convent . The nuns found me washed ashore , and , uh , was clinging to life . And they took me in .
Brady : And they did nt turn you in to the police ?
Kristen : I was in really , really bad shape , and they did nt think I would live . And this was a long , long , and painful recovery . And the nuns-- their goodness was so inspiring . And I would read scripture in the daytime , and in the evening , I would visualize myself returning to salem , making amends to everyone that I caused pain to ... especially to you . And I prayed . I prayed , and I dedicated my life ... that if I was a better person , that you would forgive me , just like god did . [ Sniffs ] And that you-- you and I-- we could have a new life together , a new chance . Polident is specifically designed to clean a denture .
Susan : Will and paul seem so happy together . Is there trouble in paradise ? I mean , is there something wrong with my little boy ?
Sonny : No , no . It s good news . Will got his memory back .
Susan : Oh , that is good news ! [ Stammers ] Oh , that s -- he s gon na want that . So why did you say that there was trouble in paradise ?
Sonny : I didnT.
Susan : [ Gasps ] Oh . You ! You are will s ex - husband . Oh . And he knows that now . Oh , wow , you two were lovebirds . And , well , that s gon na be really hard on paul . If he-- will dumps paul , and goes back to you .
Sonny : Okay , well once again , I did nt say that , susan .
Susan : Yeah , but you re hoping for it , are nt you ? Huh ? [ Laughs ]
Julie : Everybody at the hospital just seems so hopeless . [ Sighs ] My heart s just breaking for them .
Doug : Yeah , me too . We all -- we just have to keep believing that marlena is gon na pull through .
Julie : No thanks to sami .
Doug : Well , eric said it was nt her fault .
Julie : How like you . How like you to give sami the benefit of the doubt . Do you realize this is the second wedding this year that she has ruined ? In this very room , because of sami , hope s life was shattered .
Doug : Yeah , yeah , true , but takes two . I mean , rafe is just as much to blame .
Julie : Well , thankfully he did take responsibility .
Doug : Yeah . My beautiful daughter found it in her heart to forgive him . I hope they re in a better place now .
Julie : But now hurricane sami has blown into town . Let s pray to god that her past does nt cross your beautiful daughterS.
Doug : [ Sighs ]
Rafe : We can not let sami come between us . And I do nt ever wanna lose you ever again .
Paul : Hey , um , either of you guys seen brady ?
Hope : Not in the last few hours . Why ?
Paul : Well , he said he was on his way to the hospital , and never showed up . Is there any leads on kristen ?
Rafe : Not yet .
Paul : Okay , um , I m gon na try calling brady s phone .
Hope : Yeah . Better get back to work .
Rafe : Hold on . Are we good ? Hm ? Please tell me we re good .
Hope : All right . I will try not to let sami get to me , okay ?
Rafe : Okay .
Hope : I do nt wanna lose you either .
Rafe : That s not possible .
Hope : Her royal highness is demanding a phone call , so I better hop to it before she has me arrested for violating her civil rights .
Rafe : I ll handle it .
Hope : Okay .
Rafe : Okay .
Hope : All right . I ll have sami s statement transcribed . And I also wanna call the da , make sure we can hold her for at least 24 hours .
Rafe : All right .
Eric : [ Sighs ] [ Laughs softly ] Thank you for suggesting this .
Jennifer : Prayer always helps .
Eric : Yeah , well , I put one in for sami . I m sure she s drowning in guilt after shooting my mom .
Jennifer : We both know that kristen was responsible . It s really sad to see the woman that she s become .
Eric : And she knew how to hit sami where it hurts-- taunting her with the whole ej thing .
Jennifer : You really think that he s alive ?
Eric : I do nt know . Thought that he could be . Sami could be reunited with the love of her life .
Brady : Why would you ever think that I would want a life with you ?
Kristen : Because we belong together . You still want me . I can see it . I can feel it .
Brady : Kristen , you said you came back here for forgiveness , but that s not what you did . You showed up at my father s wedding with a gun because you wanted to get revenge on marlena . That s why you re back .
Kristen : No , no , no , no , no . That was not my intention .
Brady : Yes , it is .
Kristen : No , it was nt ! I swear ! [ Stammers ] I came back here to make amends , but my father talked me out of it .
Brady : Stefano ?
Kristen : Yes . I -- he came to me one night . I do nt know if it was real or if it was a dream , but his message was clear . He said I have nothing to atone for , that I was wronged by john , and especially marlena .
Brady : Oh , okay . And you re absolutely innocent ?
Kristen : I am a dimera , and he urged me to remember that , and to carry on his legacy , which was never to bow down , never to give up , but to fight , smite my enemies , and take what I want from this world , and brady , I want you .
Brady : You can throw whatever made - up stories you want at me , kristen -- about your father , about survival . It does nt matter . You ca nt make me love you .
Kristen : But you loved me once .
Brady : Once . Once , but I ve moved on .
Kristen : Oh , an army of one out there all alone .
Brady : The hell you talking about ? I m not all alone , kristen . I have eve .
Kristen : You do nt have to pretend with me . No matter what we do , we will always be outsiders-- never legit , never worthy ... [ Sighs ] I know you ve asked yourself just as I have , who was that person ? Who ? Who is that person who will stand by my side , accepting me , and loving me , just as I am ? I m that person-- not eve , not anyone else . That person , brady , is me .
Doug : Might as well straighten the place up . Gon na be no wedding reception tonight .
Julie : I can not believe that that kristen locked susan in our freezer-- you know , that kook ? That kook could bring a lawsuit against us .
Doug : Yeah , for what ? Forcible chilling ?
Julie : Darling , it is nt funny . God knows what she nibbled on when she was back there in the freezer . The board of health could come after us .
Doug : Yeah . Where you going ?
Julie : To check the food supply , make sure it is nt contaminated !
Susan : Now , do nt go jumping to conclusions about will . Now , he needs to make a decision about who he s gon na be with , okay ? He s gon na be on hand .
Sonny : Of course . I would ne--
Susan : Will ! Will , oh , my god ! I m so glad you re safe ! Oh , you know , I had a premonition something bad was gon na happen . And I solved the riddle . I did . And now , I know it s something good . You got your memory back !
Will : Yeah , well , I m glad you re happy for me .
Susan : Oh , no , it s your happiness that matters . Okay ? Oh , my god . What is up , buttercup ? You seem so tense .
Sonny : How are things at the hospital ?
Susan : Hospital ? What-- why were you at the hospital ? See , I knew it . Something bad did happen .
Will : My grandmother was shot .
Susan : Oh . Oh , my god . Oh , my god . I mean , so , kristen dimera did try to kill dr . Marlena ?
Will : Yeah . But it was my mom who pulled the trigger .
Susan : Samantha brady popped a cap in her own mama ? Oh , my god . That s just bad , bad , bad . You re headed down the highway
Jennifer : Ej is the love of sami s life , but I still do nt understand how she could even consider killing john .
Eric : They say her love is the most dangerous drug there is . Kristen gave that to sami .
Jennifer : I do nt know . I mean ... sami and ej were nt a perfect couple , you know . They had a lot of drama and conflict . Maybe she would be happier with someone maybe a little more stable , or ...
Eric : No . He s the one . [ Laughs softly ] Mm . Kristen toyed with sami . I felt it-- anger and desperation . Thinking that the love of your life is out there somewhere , and someone is keeping them from you for their own personal reasons is-- it s not cruel . It s evil .
Jennifer : No , you re right . There is no justification for what kristen did . There is no justification for anybody who would keep two people apart who are meant to be together .
Paul : Okay , dad , okay . Call me if anything changes . Love you .
Hope : How s marlena ?
Paul : Oh , she s still in surgery . Hey , my dad has nt seen brady at the hospital . Neither has anyone else .
Hope : Can you reach him by phone ?
Paul : No , and he s not answering any of my texts .
Hope : You know , what happened at the wedding was incredibly upsetting . Maybe he went-- brady probably just needed a little time .
Paul : Okay , that makes total sense . He probably wanted to go back and shower and change before heading to the hospital .
Hope : Yeah .
Paul : I m a -- I m still gon na swing by the inn just to check on them .
Hope : Of course . Let me know if you hear from them , okay ?
Paul : Okay , thank you .
Hope : Bye .
Susan : All right , how could samantha brady shoot her own mama ?
Will : Susan , come on . Can you cool it , please ? Sami s my mom .
Susan : Yeah , but she sicced a serial killer on you--
Sonny : Okay , hey , hey-- is there any word on marlena ?
Will : She s still in surgery . This is not sami s fault , okay ? Kristen made her pull the trigger .
Susan : How can you make someone pull the trigger ?
Will : Kristen would take her to ej , who s dead ?
Paul : I think kristen thought that it would be more fun if sami shot john and marlena had to watch him die .
Will : And are you sure that she was -- that-- she was really going to , like , actually going to shoot john ?
Paul : She was in the motion of turning and that s when eric tackled her , and then the gun went off .
Will : I dont -- that s why I do nt think she could-- I do nt think she could do that .
Paul : Well , with the drugs ?
Will : [ Scoffs ]
Paul : Okay , and , I mean , what if sami really believes that kristen was gon na take her to ej ? The guy was the love of her life . And if he s alive-- I mean , you are , right ? I mean , who knows . I mean , that s -- just that promise alone , it s a pretty powerful motivation for sami wanting to pull the trigger .
Will : You know how conniving kristen can be .
Susan : Yeah , yeah , yeah . That is true . I mean , she can be a bit of a sneaky pete , okay ? You know , I got ta get to the hospital .
Will : What ?
Susan : Marlena needs me .

And that s why I came over here because , like , I wanna-- I have to see her .

Jake : Dad , do you want to dance with Mom ?
Joe : Yes , I do .
Krystal : Just because you got to play M.C. does nt mean you are off the hook . You got to spin me around the floor a couple times .
Tad : Oh , you are so going to regret this , but if you insist .
Opal : Come on , handsome , dance with me .
Robert : Oh , I m trying to plan something here , Opal .
Opal : Well , tell me what it is and maybe I can help .
Robert : Well , I got a little gift for the happy couple , and I just -- I need a little information .
Opal : Uh - huh , well , I ll tell you what . You come dance with me , and I ll tell you anything you want to know .
Babe : I know you re worried about your dad . It s going to be ok . Come on , let s dance . Come on .
J.R. : All right .
Angie : Baby , this was such a beautiful wedding .
Jake : Excuse me , maam , would you like to dance with us ?
Kathy : No , thank you . I m happy .
Opal : I think you could leave whatever surprise you have for them up there .
Robert : Well , thank you very much , Opal . I think I m going to get working on that right now .
Opal : Oh , but wait a minute .
Greenlee : So , Aidan told you two about us being back on ?
Kendall : Yeah .
Zach : And we re both happy for you .
Greenlee : It was so wonderfully unselfish of him that his love for me was so true that he would want to marry me despite knowing that I did nt want to have children .
Aidan : Well , I told you , Greenlee , I can live without kids , but I ca nt live without you .
Greenlee : When you said that , it really struck me how much you re willing to sacrifice for me , and I realize how incredibly selfish I ve been .
Aidan : You have nt been selfish , you ve just been honest .
Greenlee : Honest , exactly , and I m going to continue to be honest with you , Aidan , because that is so important in a relationship .
Aidan : Greenlee , what --
Greenlee : I ve had an epiphany being here tonight , seeing all the families and the parents with their kids and their grandkids , all the love , and I ve changed my mind . I ve decided that I do want to have children after all .
Aidan : Well , ok , that s great , but we do nt have to decide this tonight . It has nothing to do with me wanting to marry you .
Greenlee : Of course , you know I still ca nt carry a baby , but we can always do a surrogacy and that s where the two of you come in . Kendall , I d like for you to carry Aidan s and my baby for us .
Robert : Old habits die hard , I guess . No , I have retired for the Bureau but I kept my permit . It s a dangerous world out there , Opal . You never know what ll happen .
Opal : Here I thought you were just happy to see me .
Robert : You do have the most delightful sense of humor . Tonight , Opal , I have to say you re looking gorgeous . Just good enough to eat .
Opal : You could charm the hind legs off a donkey , could nt you ? And you know that saying ? Blow in my ear , and I ll follow you anywhere ?
Babe : Thank you .
J.R. : For what , not stepping on your feet ?
Babe : No , for not holding it against me when I acted like a complete idiot . I fell for Richie s whole dying man act , and I believed the worst in you at the same time .
J.R. : Well , it s not like I have nt given you any reason to think the worst of me .
Babe : You know , I may have a way of helping you get back at Richie .
J.R. : Oh , you do ? Is it devious and calculating ?
Babe : Of course , it s wicked .
J.R. : Oo , pray tell .
Babe : Not right now . I think I just want to enjoy this dance with you .
Greg : All right , you guys , listen . I did nt have time to wrap it or anything , but here , I want you to have this .
Angie : Oh , my goodness -- Greg , how in the world did you get that ?
Greg : I saved it . You and Jesse and Jenny and I , we had some good times there , so --
Jesse : I do nt believe this , man . Thank you , man . This is -- talk about a blast from the past .
Greg : Jenny would have loved seeing you two like this , finding each other again and being so much in love , you know ?
Angie : Thank you , I m happy you re here .
Frankie : Oh , man , so why do nt you ask Cassandra to dance ? I mean , come on , she wo nt bite . Well , she did bite the heck out of me when she was two , but , you know , she was -- come on .
Dre : I do nt know , I m just enjoying watching the show .
Frankie : Ah , come on , now . You got to man up . Go on , now . Yeah .
Dre : Would you like to dance with me ?
Cassandra : Sure .
Tad : Baby , can I please bag it ? For me dancing was a contact sport , I ca nt do this .
Krystal : No , no , no , no , you re doing great . Come on , cut loose , baby .
Tad : Look , the Martins are notoriously bad dancers , all right ?
Joe : Great band .
Krystal : You are not getting off that easy now . Jenny s with Winifred , so you are all mine , baby .
Colby : Hey .
Frankie : Hey back at you .
Colby : So , would you like to dance ?
Frankie : Sure .
Colby : Uh - oh . Hello ?
Adam : Colby , why did you leave the house ? I told you , you could be in danger .
Colby : Dad , there s no big , mysterious danger . I m fine , J.R. s fine .
Adam : Where are you ?
Colby : At Angie and Jesse s wedding reception .
Adam : But where ?
Colby : At the casino , the ballroom . Dad , are you ok ? Where are you calling from ?
Adam : Seasons East Casino , fast .
Opal : Where are you taking me , your room ?
Robert : You re not scared of small spaces , are you ?
Opal : Well , I do nt know . I m a little claustrophobic , but I guess you ll just have to keep my mind occupied . Oh , but we have to be sure to get out there again for the big surprise ending at the end of the evening .
Robert : What is the big surprise ending ?
Opal : Tad has ordered a helicopter to land on the roof and whisk the happy couple away . But , shhh , not a word .
Robert : My lips are sealed .
Opal : Oh , I hope not too much . Ahh .
Kendall : Greenlee , I do nt know what to say .
Aidan : Greenlee , today is nt really the time to talk about it . There s plenty of other times --
Greenlee : But I ve been so selfish , and I want to give you something you want so much , and Kendall means so much to both of us . I mean , you do nt have a problem with it , do you Zach ?
Zach : Do nt do this .
Greenlee : Of course , we d have to go through that whole infertility mess again . The shots , the hormones , the procedures for both of us . You know , come to think of it , it s just DNA when you get right down to it . We do nt have to bother with all that mess . Why do nt you and Aidan go ahead and make a baby , and I ll pretend I m its mommy . How does that sound ?
Kendall : Greenlee , what are you talking about ?
Aidan : Greenlee , that s not funny .
Greenlee : It was nt meant to be . You would nt have a problem with that , would you , honey ? I mean , after all , it could be another shot at doing Kendall . You cheating , lying , son of a bitch .
Babe : Hey , you re gone again .
J.R. : I d like to think that if she was here , that she would nt be haunting my father . That she d at least let Tad or me know .
Waiter : There you are , sir .
Babe : J.R. , did you order these ?
J.R. : Tell me that you asked for those .
Babe : No , no , I did nt order these , I swear .
J.R. : Chocolate chips , no nuts , just like my mom .
Krystal : Ow , ow , ow .
Jack : Whoa , excuse me , I really just I ca nt take anymore . Can I cut in , please ?
Krystal : Please , please . Yeah , I think you ve suffered enough , darling .
Tad : Yeah , you ve suffered enough . I have to warn you , she likes to lead .
Jack : Well , somebody has to .
Tad : Ho ho . What happened here ?
Kathy : Spilled my juice .
Julia : Nothing a little magic fizzy water ca nt cure .
Tad : Hey , you having fun ? Yeah ? What about you ?
Julia : Yeah .
Tad : Excited about your new job ?
Julia : Mixed feelings . It s a great opportunity , but it s far away .
Kathy : Will you come with us ?
Tad : Sweetheart , I wish I could .
Kathy : I ll miss you .
Tad : I miss you already .
Colby : Hey , guys , do you mind taking a photo ?
Julia : Oh , good , yeah .
Tad : Photo op .
Frankie : What ?
Angie : I do nt know , for a minute , I thought I d wake up and find out that this was all a beautiful dream .
Frankie : Oh , rubbish , this is no dream , Mom .
Cassandra : Thank you , Jesse .
Jesse : You re welcome . For what ?
Cassandra : For making Mom so happy .
Jesse : When you love somebody as much as I love your mother , making them happy just becomes a reason for living . You re going to understand that one day when you meet the right person . You will . By - the - by , it s my turn to thank you for keeping an open mind and giving me a shot .
Cassandra : Jesse , you make it really hard not to like you . No , really , I think things are going to work out just fine for our family .
Jesse : You know , aside from your mother saying I do to me tonight , those are the sweetest words I ve heard all day .
Jesse : Excuse me .
J.R. : You got something on your face .
Babe : Oh . Did I get it ?
J.R. : Yeah , I m just kidding . You did nt get it . Hold on a second . My gosh .
Babe : Hey , hey , hey , that s my chocolate . You ca nt take it from me .
J.R. : You , you want to get out of here for a little while ?
Robert : So , anyway , not only did the groom leave his key , but also the bride s wedding gift in his room , so he s kind of in a panic , and he sent me down here to get both of them . They re in the bridal suite , which I believe is on the top floor , they said . Oh , I m sorry , here , I should show you this . Robert Gardner . Actually , I am staying here , too . My family is hosting the Hubbards reception .
Clerk : Sure , Mr. Gardner . Are you a police officer ?
Robert : FBI , but --
Clerk : Exciting .
Robert : No , tonight I m just another guy in a suit .
J.R. : Hello , there .
Robert : Hi , there . Thank you very much , you are a lifesaver .
Clerk : My pleasure . May I help you ?
J.R. : Yes , you can . Say , you would nt happen to have any extra rooms available upstairs ?
Greenlee : Nothing to say ? No huffy denials ? No witty British comebacks ? God , how could you have done this to me ? The two people I completely gave my heart to , and you betrayed me .
Kendall : Greenlee , you do nt understand .
Greenlee : Oh , I understand perfectly , graphically .
Aidan : Greenlee , I do nt know what you heard .
Greenlee : Oh , do nt worry , do nt worry . You two kept your little secret . My father s the one who told me .
Kendall : Jack ?
Greenlee : I m sorry to do this to you , Zach , but when you and I were lying half dead down in that bomb shelter -- that is when it happened , right ?
Kendall : Greenlee , stop .
Greenlee : I ll take that as a yes . While we were down there dying , these two were so worried , so concerned about us , that the thing they decided to do to keep their minds off of us was to jump into bed with each other . Oh , my God . You knew .
Greenlee : I was the only one . The only one who did nt know . All of you , you ve all kept this from me .
Kendall : Not to hurt you .
Greenlee : Not to hurt me . The man who I thought loved me --
Aidan : Greenlee , I do love you .
Greenlee : And my best friend decided that since Zach and I were away , they might as well have some fun between the sheets .
Kendall : No , that s not how it was at all . We thought that you both were dead .
Greenlee : Oh , that makes me feel so much better , Kendall . What was it ? A couple seconds of mourning and then , bang , take me , Aidan , I m yours , you bitch . It s all been lies .
Aidan : Greenlee , I love you and that s not --
Greenlee : Shut up . Lies .
Aidan : Come here , look at me . Come here . I thought you were gone . Ok ? Kendall thought Zach was gone . Our hearts were broken with grief . Ok ? It was stupid and it was wrong , and we ve regretted it ever since .
Greenlee : Zach and I thought we were going to die down in that hole . We thought we d never see you and Kendall again . The difference was we , we really loved you . So , we did nt do anything but comfort each other . Stupid , huh ? We should have done it . Well , you know what ? It s not too late . Come on , Zach , let s show them how it feels .
Zach : Stop .
Greenlee : Let s show them how it feels . Let s show them how it feels . Let s do it right here , right now .
Zach : Stop , that s enough , that s enough .
Babe : Do we really want to do this again ?
J.R. : You know , you re right . We probably should nt be doing this .
Babe : You are such a jerk .
Krystal : I think you ve got it .
Tad : This is more my speed .
Krystal : Yeah ?
Tad : Yeah , just rocking to music with my beautiful wife in my arms .
Krystal : No more champagne for you .
Tad : I do nt need it .
Cassandra : How you doing , Mom ?
Angie : On cloud nine and rising . Listen , I saw you out on the dance floor , dancing with Jesse , and I m so glad that you re giving him a chance .
Cassandra : It s no use fighting it . He s a good man , and he makes you happy . And that s the most important thing , right ?
Angie : You re so sweet .
Robert : Damn .
Jesse : Looking for this ?
Clerk : May I help you ?
Adam : No .
Dixie : You took your sweet time .
Adam : Where are the kids ? Tell me I m not too late .
Dixie : You can still do the right thing , but time is running out for everyone .
Adam : Where s the wedding reception ? Where is it ? Where ? I m sorry , I m -- please . Just -- it s urgent . Thank you .
Jack : Greenlee , where did you go ? I m so worried about you . Call me , please .
Aidan : It really does nt sound like much , but I am . I am deeply sorry . I mean , if I could take it back , I would .
Greenlee : I hate you .
Kendall : Please , please , Greenlee , do nt let one stupid mistake we made do this to you . You and Aidan , you and I , there s too much good there to throw away because of one stupid mistake .
Greenlee : Stop it . We have nothing , nothing .
Kendall : Greenlee , please , please , listen to me .
Zach : That s enough .
Kendall : Greenlee .
Greenlee : Let go of me .
Kendall : Oh , my God .
Aidan : You told Zach ? You did nt think it was a good idea to tell me that ?
Kendall : It does nt matter .
Aidan : He knew . He knew when he sent me over to Sudan . He wanted me to die over there , did nt he ?
Adam : Colby , Colby . Thank God you re all right .
Colby : Dad , what are you doing here ?
Adam : Where s J.R. ?
Colby : I do nt know .
Adam : What about Uncle Stuart and your grandmother ?
Colby : She was nt feeling well so Stuart took her home .
Adam : Good , good , good . That means that they re perfectly safe . Now I need to get you and J.R. out of here .
Colby : Dad , Dad , why are you embarrassing me like this ?
Adam : Where s J.R. ?
Tad : Adam , how the hell did you get out of Oak Haven ?
Adam : Get out of my way .
Tad : You re not welcome here .
Krystal : Tad , Tad . Adam , look , let s not disturb the guests , ok ? Why do nt you come with me , and we ll talk about it ?
Adam : No , I do nt want to talk about it . I want to get my daughter and my son out of this place . That s what I want , ok ?
Angie : Where s Jesse ?
Cassandra : He said he d back in a minute .
Robert : Oh , thank God you found it . I just got a call from the Bureau . See , they just found a thumb drive in one of Papel s safe deposit boxes with information about that diamond . That is what he was after all these years . And then it was hidden in the stuffed elephant by John Remington . And then when I remembered that your step - daughter was walking around with that stuffed elephant .
Jesse : Stop it . Stop it .
Robert : What are you talking about ?
Jesse : Stop it ! I know who you are . I know what you are . And now you are going to do exactly what I tell you to do .
Jesse : Two fingers , very slowly , take out your gun , drop it , kick it over here .
Robert : I do nt know what you re talking about .
Jesse : Now ! You need to stop thinking I m stupid . The gun .
Robert : You figured it out , huh ? Well , where did I slip up , huh ?
Jesse : You want a list ? Why do nt we start with this ? A little bug I found in my loft . Not a common model , Robert . The FBI uses it . You really think I was nt watching you ? Huh ? It was kind of obvious . A little naive on your part , would nt you say ? Huh ? Trying to buddy up to me and my family ? I mean , you re Tad s uncle , and the man ca nt stand the sight of you . Inviting me to be your partner in the movies ? Why , what ? And then there s Cassandra , who thought somebody was going through her stuff , and felt a little odd that day when she was looking for something . She said she felt --
Cassandra : I m just a little groggy , like my head s in a bubble .
Jesse : Very familiar feeling . I remember that feeling after every interrogation you put me through . What was the name of that drug , Robert ?
Robert : It was the Russian stuff , SP-17 .
Jesse : Only the best for Papel , huh ? This was the killer right here , bam . Really stupid . I know this origami from that room you had me chained in . This was the clue that made me know that you were alive . Papel was alive and Papel was you , you sick bastard .
Robert : Well , you always were a good cop , Jesse . Smart , clever . When I heard you were still alive , I knew I d have to act fast . I guess I just was nt fast enough , huh ? So now what ?
Jesse : Now it s payback time .
J.R. : Now ask me if I want to go back downstairs for the cutting of the cake and the tossing of the bouquet .
Babe : This is not --
J.R. : Do nt even finish that because it is . It is what we both wanted .
Greenlee : Let go of me .
Zach : I need to explain something to you .
Greenlee : There s nothing to explain . While we were dying down in that hole , the so - called loves of our lives were having sex . And why the hell did nt you tell me ?
Zach : The same reason they did nt tell you . Did nt want to hurt you . And that -- what happened there , it s -- I m trying to understand it . They thought we were dead , and Kendall needed someone to be me , and Aidan needed someone to be you , and that s what they did for each other . It should nt have happened , but it did . It hurts me to see you like this . What do we do ? You pick up the pieces and move on .
Aidan : You told Zach and you did nt think it was a good idea to tell me that ? He sent me on a mission knowing full well that my life was on the line , and you did nt want to come and speak to me about it ?
Kendall : Zach did nt want you dead , Aidan , and you know that . He told you not to go , but in the end you insisted .
Aidan : Yeah , by then he knew I would nt say no , because it was Tad s brother .
Kendall : No , no , you re wrong , ok ? And you want to know why I did nt tell you ? I did nt tell you , because Zach and I have come to terms with what happened .
Aidan : Oh , well , how lovely for you two . And now I m going to come to terms with Zach .
Zach : I want to help you .
Greenlee : There s nothing to help with , Zach . There are no pieces to pick up , because there was really nothing there to begin with . The man that I was going to marry , my best friend , you , all lies . And I have nothing now .
Aidan : Hey , what are you doing ? Trying to make this worse now , eh ?
Zach : No .
Aidan : You sent me to Africa , so I could get a bullet through the eyes . Is that right ?
Kendall : No , Aidan , please , come on .
Zach : Are you raising your voice to me right now after everything you did ?
Aidan : Answer me .
Zach : If I wanted you dead , you would nt be here right now . You try to remember that .
Colby : Please , Daddy , just go home . Stop acting like this .
Adam : Sweetheart , you re coming with me .
Tad : No , she s not . I am this close to throwing your ass --
Jake : Adam . Jake Martin . We go way back .
Adam : Oh , oh , my God . I do nt know what hole you crawled out of , but none of this has anything to do with the Martins , my friend . I ve come here to get my two children , and then I m leaving .
Jake : No , you ll leave with nobody , and you ll do it right now .
Tad : You heard my brother , Adam . You re stinking up the joint .
Krystal : Oh , would you both stop it , please ? Obviously , the man is ill .
Adam : I m not . What d you -- I am not --
Dixie : What , Adam ? What are you ?
Jesse : Should I toy with you a while like you did with me ? Sound like a plan ?
Robert : How about you and I cut a deal ? Hang on , hang on , no . Do you know how much that diamond is worth , Jesse ? It is worth millions . Millions and millions , tens of millions of dollars . I know a guy who can cut it up into just the right number of stones , and we ll split it , you and me . No one else will ever know .
Jesse : Money , money , money , money , money . It s always money with you , is nt it ? Do you really think you can put a price on 20 years of my life ? 20 years of my family s life ? What about all those people you killed , Robert ? You caused a lot of grief .
Robert : Well , what about me ? Huh ? You think you re the only one who s suffered ? Do you think you re the only one whose life was made a living hell ? When I stumbled on those stones , I knew that my ship had come in . It was my ticket to a good life , and I deserved it . Then I got double - crossed by Remington and by you . No , I know you did nt know all the details , but you had all the answers . That damned stuffed elephant . Your family had my diamond all those years . 20 years I thought about one thing , that diamond . And 20 years of looking for it cost me my family . My wife did not die . She left me . She went and married some rich pig in Europe , and do you know why ? I was obsessed by that diamond . I had to have it . And I still have to have it . You got the rest of my days right there in your pocket , so you need to just give it me right now or go ahead and shoot me .
Robert : Who would ve known until death do us part would come so soon .
Angie : Ow !
Dixie : Tad , run , get out now before it s too late .
Robert : Stay back .

### Dialogue:
Tabitha : Ah ! Oh ! Oh , what the -- dickens ?
Tabitha : Blasted Beelzebub . It was worse than turkeys . You know who I saw in the bowl , do nt you ?
Endora : No .
Tabitha : The blonde one herself . A girl so good she can seal our fates by just hopping into the sack with Miguel . Oh bloody hell . Charity is back in Harmony .
Charity : There s still no sign of Kay or Miguel .
Fox : Damn .
Charity : Maybe if I join the party , I can --
Fox : I said no . At least not yet . See , if anybody saw that you were here , well , it would ruin the surprise .
Charity : I guess .
Fox : Listen -- tell you what , I ve got another idea . And trust me , when Kay and Miguel see you , it will be well worth the wait -- a moment that none of us will ever forget .
Miguel : Am I missing something here , Kay ?
Kay : No -- no , not at all . You have my word . I will tell Fox the wedding s off . I ll do it tonight .
Miguel : Well , the sooner the better . For crying out loud , people are here celebrating a wedding that s not even going to happen .
Kay : Yeah , but that does nt make it easier , Miguel . I mean , Fox is so happy that he s throwing me this shower , and now that I know he s dying --
Miguel : Oh , come on , Kay . You do nt want someone to spend their last few days of their life with a lie .
Kay : Yeah , well , I ve tried to tell him the truth on several different occasions and he just keeps distracting me with something else . I think he knew what I was trying to tell him .
Miguel : He could nt . Look , go on , take him aside , and do nt let him change the subject until you get it all out . I know it will be hard , but I guarantee that we ll all feel better once he knows the truth -- that it s me you love , not him .
Pilar : Look at you -- you certainly do look like a man in love .
Luis : Oh , man . So much for playing it cool , huh ?
Pilar : I m your mother . I can see right through cool .
Luis : Yeah , ai nt that the truth . You have nt seen her , have you ?
Pilar : No , not yet . Do you really think she s coming to the wedding shower ?
Luis : Well , she should be here . She is Fox s family , after all . I never thought I d fall in love again . But I have . As soon as I find her , I m going to tell her .
Fancy : I m a big girl , so why does it hurt so much to hear what I already knew anyway ? But did he have to tell me he loved me down in that cave shaft ? Maybe he did nt . Maybe I dreamt that and he s never loved me . At least now I know he never will .
Noah : You know , Paloma , you ve just been so great to Jessica . I do nt think our family can thank you enough .
Paloma : Oh , please . She s one of my best friends . Besides , anyone would have helped her in her condition .
Noah : I do nt think she would ve gone after Kay like she did if she was nt high as a kite .
Paloma : Well , you ca nt blame her for drinking . If I was married to Spike , I d get drunk , too .
Noah : Nevertheless , I think it s great that she has someone like you in her life .
Paloma : It goes both ways . You know what ? You remind me of her .
Noah : Of Jessica ?
Paloma : Uh - huh .
Noah : Oh , thank you . I hope you mean the Jessica of pre - Spike days .
Paloma : Of course I do .
Noah : Good . Coming from you , that means a lot . Um , you know , I see an old friend . Are you going to be here for a while ?
Paloma : Mm - hmm , I m not going anywhere .
Whitney : Jared ?
Jared : Hey .
Whitney : Oh , my God , you re here . I thought you were leaving town .
Jared : Oh , I m on my way out . I figured I d just stop in and wish Fox and Kay a lifetime of happiness or whatever it is you say at these shindigs .
Whitney : You do know that Theresa s here , right ?
Jared : Tess ? No , I did nt . Where is she ?
Whitney : I do nt know , I m not really sure , but she is here somewhere .
Theresa : I knew I should nt have come to your table . The cards are wrong .
Fortune Teller : Really ?
Theresa : Yeah , they re totally off base . I mean , Ethan is the love of my life . Being with him could never be a mistake .
Fortune Teller : It is as you say . This Ethan is the love of your life , but you will never be with him .
Theresa : Great . Thank you , I think I ve heard enough .
Fortune Teller : Oh , wait , wait , wait -- wait . I see another man in my cards for you . A man you are truly destined to be with , a man who is far better for you in the long run .
Theresa : Right .
Fortune Teller : Interesting -- you already know him . You ve been in a relationship with him . He knows this other man , and he loves you nonetheless .
Theresa : It s Jared .
Fortune Teller : Hmm , but if you do nt act quickly , you will lose him . Now that would be a tragedy -- to lose the one man who could give you happiness .
Pilar : I have to say I m very proud of you , and maybe even a little surprised .
Luis : For what ? Oh , you mean for putting my feelings for Sheridan behind me ?
Pilar : Yes , I was nt really sure you could do that .
Luis : Yeah , that makes two of us . Well , that s what Sheridan wants , and I ca nt keep badgering her , now can I ?
Pilar : Well , you re right . Life s too short to chase all our dreams . Besides , Fancy is a very nice girl .
Luis : Yeah .
Pilar : There s a lot more to her than people give her credit for , too .
Luis : Yeah , including me at first .
Pilar : Oh , really ? What changed your mind ?
Luis : Where do I start ? You know , I think for me , it all changed down in the mineshaft . Most people would ve just given up and died , but not Fancy . She kept fighting and -- well , that s when I realized that I was in love with her . Now I just have to find her and tell her before it s too late .
Paloma : Hey , you re out of the hospital !
Fancy : Thank goodness .
Paloma : Wow , talk about resilient . You d never know what you have been through -- physically , anyway .
Fancy : What do you mean ?
Paloma : Well , you look beautiful as usual , but kind of sad . What s wrong ?
Fancy : He s your brother . Do I have to spell it out for you ?
Paloma : Oh , yeah , Luis . I m sorry things are not working out .
Fancy : Are you ?
Paloma : Of course I am . Just because I encouraged Luis and Sheridan to make things right between them does nt mean that I do nt care about you or your feelings .
Fancy : I m not blaming you , Paloma . I m not even blaming Luis . You ca nt lose someone you never had , right ?
Paloma : Yeah .
Fancy : But I could swear he told me he loved me when we were down in the mineshaft , but I must have been wrong . I was so out of it , I probably hallucinated the whole thing . He loves one woman and her name does nt begin with an F.
Paloma : Are you sure ?
Fancy : How s this for sure ? I overheard him talking to Ethan in the gym . He said he d never be with another woman but Sheridan .
Paloma : Well , maybe you did nt hear him right .
Fancy : Oh , I heard him right , Paloma . Yeah . Oh , perfect , just what I need -- another reminder of a relationship that did nt work out . Why is it that every man I care for either cheats on me emotionally or physically ? What am I doing wrong ?
Paloma : Noah swears up and down he never slept with Maya .
Fancy : Oh , yeah , and if you believe that , you are a lot more gullible than any rookie cop should be . Excuse me .
Paloma : Well , you may not think Noah s a good guy , but I do . I think he s great .
Whitney : I really wish you would reconsider leaving .
Jared : Why do I feel like we ve had this conversation before ?
Whitney : Ok , I know . I know , you were going to leave Harmony a long time ago , but I convinced you to stay .
Jared : Yeah , you and a group of other people . But there s nothing here for me now . It s probably better I cut my losses and move on , you know ?
Whitney : Well -- but you really do care about her , right ? Do nt you ?
Jared : Well , yeah , I mean there s no point in hiding it . Yeah , Theresa s the most incredible woman I ve ever met , but ... enough about us . Is Chad coming to the party ? I kind of want to say good - bye to him before I leave .
Whitney : Yeah , um , I did leave a message for Chad . I m not sure if he s going to be here . You know , he did nt call me back , so --
Jared : I m sure he d come if he could . He loves you and that little boy you two share . You know that .
Whitney : Thanks .
Whitney : Then why do I feel like he s living a double life ?
Theresa : Are you sure about this ?
Fortune Teller : No one is forcing you to believe me .
Theresa : I want to believe . I do . But if I sound completely confused , it s because I ve made a real mess of things with this other guy .
Fortune Teller : Which one , the love of your life ?
Theresa : Well , yeah , actually , him , too . But no , the other one . I hurt him . I treated him badly , and as we speak , he s headed out of town .
Fortune Teller : The cards are never wrong .
Theresa : Well , this time they are .
Fortune Teller : Tell the young distressed woman what she must do . Tell her which path she must take to attain happiness .
Theresa : Ok , all right , what are they telling you ?
Fortune Teller : They re very clear , very strong . You must heed their message .
Theresa : But I m --
Fortune Teller : Fate is trying to guide you ! Do nt ignore what it intends for you .
Fortune Teller : Now , the man that you are meant to be with -- he will have the other half of this coin , ah ? You find him , and you will find your happiness , hmm ?
Tabitha : Oh ! Oh , no . Oh , tell me it is nt so , sweet pea . Oh , tell me it is nt true . Oh , tell me Charity is nt back in Harmony .
Tabitha : Oh -- oh , my little witchling . You do nt know how serious this is . If Charity is back in town , our days could be numbered -- really ! This could be the beginning of the end of the dark side !
Fox : Then you know what to do ?
Charity : I think so .
Fox : Ah , great . Trust me , when we see the look on Kay and Miguel s faces , it ll be well worth the wait .
Kay : Look , I ll talk to Fox alone as soon as he comes back .
Miguel : You sure you want to do this alone ? I can help you .
Kay : No , no . It s going to be bad on his male pride to hear that I m in love with you . Gosh , having you standing there is just going to make it worse .
Miguel : Ok .
Kay : Ok .
Miguel : Good luck .
Kay : Thanks . I m going to need it .
Fox : Hey , beautiful , what are you doing standing here in the corner ? This is our party .
Kay : Actually , I was looking for you .
Fox : Well , you found me . Now come on , let s go mingle .
Kay : Then you re feeling ok ?
Fox : Yeah , I ve never felt better . You look a little off .
Kay : I m fine , except that I just really need to talk to you .
Fox : Yeah , ok , we can talk , but let s do it after the guests go home .
Kay : No , no , it ca nt wait , Fox . I have to talk to you about this right now .
Theresa : Ok , let me get this straight . You want me to sashay up to every guy that I meet and ask them to empty their pockets to show me this other half of the coin ?
Fortune Teller : Well , there s no need for sarcasm .
Theresa : Well , I m sorry , it s just that I m kind of having a tough time buying this .
Fortune Teller : Nobody is twisting your arm . I just thought you might be interested in meeting the man who could bring you happiness .
Theresa : I am . So how am I supposed to find him ?
Fortune Teller : Tonight , you must go to a place that overlooks the water .
Theresa : Ok , well , all of Harmony is on the coast , so that could be anywhere .
Fortune Teller : A place nearby with wooden railings . The man fate has chosen for you -- he ll be there .
Theresa : That must be the wharf .
Fortune Teller : Perhaps . All I know is if you go , you will never regret it . After tonight , your life will never be the same , huh ?
Theresa : At first , I did nt pay any attention to the Fortune Teller .
Whitney : Oh , please do nt tell me that she reeled you in .
Theresa : She was amazing , Whitney , right on about some things .
Whitney : What did she say ?
Theresa : Well , for starters , she said things about Ethan and me that were totally true . I mean , if she was nt the real thing , how could she have known ?
Whitney : You gave her some real information and she made some pretty good educated guesses . That s all .
Theresa : What if I told you that she told me that I should give up on Ethan forever ?
Whitney : Well that is new because usually Fortune Tellers tell you what you want to hear .
Theresa : Exactly . Well , she told me that we have no future together and that it was fate s way of protecting me .
Whitney : Really ?
Theresa : Yeah , and then she also said there s this other guy out there for me , Whitney . And I already know him .
Whitney : Jared ?
Theresa : Well , that s what I thought , too , at first , but I mean , it could nt be . I ve hurt him terribly , Whitney . He s already out of Harmony . I m never going to see him again .
Whitney : About that , Theresa --
Theresa : And then -- wait , wait -- she also said this other amazing thing . Ok , she gave me this half a coin , Whitney , and she told me that the man I m destined to spend the rest of my life with is going to be at the wharf tonight with the other half of this coin . I think she meant the wharf .
Whitney : Ok , and then you re going to realize that your two half - coins fit together , you re going to fall madly in love and run away together ?
Theresa : Something like that ?
Whitney : Huh . Well , then what are you doing here ? Go , go on to the wharf .
Theresa : Oh , no . No , no , no . I m not going to do -- this is just dumb . It s dumb , is nt it ? I mean , come on , I do nt even believe in this fate stuff anymore . I do nt want to go down there , I do nt want to get my hopes up and then have them dashed when nobody shows up . I m going to find a trash can .
Whitney : No , no , do nt do that .
Jared : No thanks .
Fortune Teller : You sure ? I could tell you a few things more about yourself .
Jared : I know more about myself than I d already like to know .
Fortune Teller : Do nt be so quick to say no . I see you re hurt , and I also see that you re letting your pride prevent you from being with the woman you love .
Jared : That s a lucky guess .
Fortune Teller : Not really . The cards do not guess , they just speak in their own fashion . Hmm .
Fortune Teller : You might want to reconsider your plan leaving Harmony .
Jared : How d you know that ?
Fortune Teller : I told you , it s all right here . You should stick around .
Jared : I d like to . It s a nice place , but -- there s not really much left for me here except for things that did nt work out .
Fortune Teller : All I know is you re walking away when you should be staying .
Jared : Trust me , there s nothing left for me to stay for .
Fortune Teller : I trust the cards -- they say there is . They say if you stay , you will be with the woman you love and you will find happiness with her .
Fancy : Just what I needed , more rejection .
Luis : Where is she going ? She must not have seen me .
Tabitha : I need to warn Kay that Charity s back in town . Oh , I thought I d seen the last of that little blondie . One roll in the hay for them , and our world will never be the same .
Tabitha : Oh , well , this is a surprise .
Fancy : Excuse me , I m sorry .
Tabitha : What can I do for you , dear ?
Fancy : I , um -- It s just that there s someone outside that I m not up to seeing right now . Do you mind if I hide out in here for a few minutes ? I do nt want Luis to find me .
Tabitha : No , I do nt mind at all . I ca nt imagine why any woman would want to hide from him .
Fancy : Thanks , I owe you one .
Luis : Whoa , excuse me , Tabitha . Hey , Endora ! Have you seen Fancy Crane around ?
Pilar : Miguel ? Mijo , I do nt think you should be here . This has got to be difficult for you to be at this wedding shower .
Miguel : Oh , you do nt know the half of it .
Pilar : Why ? What s happened ? Where s Kay ?
Miguel : Right now , she s with Fox , most likely telling him that there is nt going to be a wedding because she s in love with me and not him .
Pilar : Oh , my God . And she s telling him here , in the middle of their party ?
Miguel : I know -- I know it sounds bad , but waiting is only going to make things harder , Mama .
Kay : Look , this is urgent , Fox . I would nt keep asking you if I could talk to you alone if it were nt .
Fox : Well , it s just the timing , Kay , and we ve got a yard full of guests here that are here to celebrate with us .
Kay : Yeah , but , see , that s what this is about . This shower , the wedding , and -- whew -- and Miguel .
Fox : Miguel ? Why did nt you say so , Kay ? I know what this is all about .
Luis : Fancy was just outside , and I thought I saw her head this way , so ...
Tabitha : Oh , Fancy , Fancy , you mean that Crane girl , the pretty blonde ?
Luis : That s the one .
Tabitha : No , no , the only pretty blonde , blue - eyed girl here is Miss Endora .
Luis : Yes , well , she is an angel .
Tabitha : Well , no , Luis , no , I have nt seen her , but if she shows up , I shall send her your way .
Luis : Well , thank you . I d appreciate it .
Fancy : Oh . Thank you , thank you , Miss Lennox . I just could nt bear the ought of seeing him just now .
Tabitha : Yeah , well , if you do nt mind my asking , why the hell not ?
Fancy : Oh , it s a long story .
Tabitha : Oh , yes , are nt they all ? Well , since I did you a favor , you owe me one . Would you mind helping me with these appetizer trays ?
Fancy : Sure , no problem . What are those ?
Tabitha : Oh , these are my very own special creation . Have nt you ever tasted ethnic food , dear ?
Fancy : Oh , of course . I just did nt recognize it .
Tabitha : Yeah , well that s probably because it s a specialty of the dark side .
Fancy : Did you say something ?
Tabitha : Oh , no . No , no , no , no , no . I ll take the tray , and you bring Endora for me , all right ?
Fancy : Oh , I d like that . Ooh -- hi , Endora . Oh , she is very cute .
Tabitha : Yeah , well just do nt tell her that .
Fancy : I m sorry , were you talking to Endora or me ?
Tabitha : Forgive me , dear , I was talking to myself . Something that comes with age . You ll find out soon enough .
Fancy : Yeah , I guess I will . God , she is really a doll . You know what ? She is the spitting image of me at her age . She looks exactly like my baby pictures .
Tabitha : Ah , yes , second thoughts , dear . You take the tray and I ll stay here with Endora .
Fancy : Oh , ok , whatever you say . Bye .
Tabitha : You mind your p s and q s , young lady . We do nt want anyone to know that Julian is your father . No one must find out that you re half - Crane , understand ? Hmm ?
Fox : Do nt look so surprised . I m pretty sharp when it comes to people around me .
Kay : Then you know ?
Fox : About Miguel ? Yeah , Kay , I ve known for a while .
Kay : Oh , my gosh .
Fox : I d have to be pretty dense not to notice how worried you ve been about your daughter s father .
Kay : What ?
Fox : I know that you re worried about the effect our marriage is going to have on him , that he s going to be left all alone . You re sad that things did nt work out between him and Siren .
Kay : Um ...
Fox : You do nt need to worry about any of that . All right ? There s Charity .
Kay : Charity ?
Fox : Everybody knows that Miguel never got over Charity . I mean , that s why he could nt get serious with Siren even though she was -- she was really cute . Guys , especially guys like Miguel , they do nt just forget about the woman they love because she s not around .
Kay : Yeah , that may be true for some people , but Miguel has actually made it pretty clear .
Fox : If you ask me , she still takes up a lot of room in Miguel s heart . The same way that you take up a lot of room in my heart .
Kay : Fox , that s what we need to talk about .
Fox : Well , ifit s so important to you , then fire away .
Kay : Ok .
Fox : Oh .
Kay : Are you all right ?
Fox : Um -- I m fine , I just -- I think I m trying to do too much at this party up today . If you do nt mind , I m just going to go inside and get some of my medicine .
Kay : Wait , wait , your medicine ?
Fox : Aspirin . Just , uh , aspirin .
Fox : I ll be back .
Kay : Miguel does nt love Charity . I asked him , and he swore to me he did nt . He s over her .
Miguel : I should ve never left to look for Charity .
Pilar : You were following your heart . You loved Charity at the time .
Miguel : Loved , as in past tense . You know , you would nt believe how insecure Kay is about her . She keeps asking me what I would do if she were to come back to town .
Pilar : Miguelito , you ca nt blame her . It hurt her very much when she lost you to her cousin .
Miguel : You know she made me promise that if she ever came back to town that I would nt leave her to be with Charity ?
Pilar : Can you make that promise ?
Miguel : Mama , absolutely . I love Kay .
Pilar : Good . But just in case somehow Charity comes back into your life , be vigilant , ok ?
Miguel : What do you mean ?
Pilar : Well , I know that in your mind you love Kay , but the heart can do strange things when old loves reappear .
Miguel : Well , Charity is not popping back into my life , so I do nt think we have anything to worry about .
Whitney : No , Theresa , I think you should go . Go to the wharf and find out if there s someone there with the other half of that coin .
Theresa : Why , Whitney ? I mean , I d just be wasting my time . No one s going to show up .
Whitney : How do you know ? How do you know if you do nt at least try ?
Theresa : And what if he s not there ?
Whitney : Well , what if he is ?
Theresa : You re right . I m going to go down there , and I m going to look , because if I do nt , I ll always wonder if I missed him . Wish me luck .
Whitney : Do nt I always ?
Theresa : I ve got to be out of my mind to believe that fortune teller . Like the man that I m destined to be with is just going to pop up here .
Theresa : Jared .
Jared : Tess .
Jared : I thought you were at Fox s party for Kay .
Theresa : I was . How d you know ?
Jared : Whitney -- I saw her over there .
Theresa : I did nt see you . I thought you were already out of town .
Jared : Well , I was on my way out despite the best efforts of your best friend .
Theresa : Well , she did nt say anything to me .
Jared : So what are you doing here ?
Theresa : You would nt believe me if I told you .
Jared : That makes two of us . Anyway , I left my letter of resignation on your secretary s desk .
Theresa : I wish you were nt leaving .
Jared : Do you ?
Theresa : Yeah . But I understand . I m really sorry about --
Jared : Look , there s no reason to apologize . You re just being honest , right ? Friends ?
Theresa : Oh , my God . It s you .
Luis : Hey .
Fancy : Oh !
Luis : There you are . I ve been looking all over for you .
Kay : Fox ? Oh , hey . Did you get something for your headache ?
Fox : Yeah , actually , I did . I m feeling much better , so you know , we should get back to the party .
Kay : Not until we talk , please .
Fox : Oh , I almost forgot .
Kay : You better sit down .
Fox : Wow , this sounds serious .
Kay : It is . It s really serious , actually . It s probably the hardest thing that I ve ever had to do .
Kay : If you do nt mind , Fox and I are having a --
Charity : Hi , Kay .
Kay : Charity ?
Jared : Is everything all right ?
Theresa : Where did you get this ?
Jared : It s kind of embarrassing , actually .
Theresa : No , I really need to know .
Jared : All right , well , since we re not together anymore , I guess it does nt matter if you think I m a big jerk .
Theresa : No , I would nt think that , Jared .
Jared : Well , you might after I tell you where I got it . Anyway , there was a fortune teller at Fox and Kay s party . I do nt know if you saw her .
Theresa : I did .
Jared : Well , she gave it to me , and she said that the woman I m destined to spend the rest of my life with would be here at this wharf with the other half of that coin .
Theresa : Oh , my God .
Jared : Yeah , I know , I m a big jerk .
Theresa : No . No , look . I ve got the other half . I mean , she told me the same thing .
Noah : Hey , you hungry ?
Paloma : You got that for me ?
Noah : Uh , yeah . It s a little presumptuous , I know .
Paloma : No , not at all .
Whitney : You re leaving already .
Fortune Teller : Nothing already about it . I ve done what I came for .
Whitney : I was just hoping maybe you could answer a couple of questions for me .
Fortune Teller : Are you sure you need to ask them ?
Whitney : What do you mean ?
Fortune Teller : I d say you already know the answers to your questions , you just do nt like them .
Whitney : What are you talking about ?
Fortune Teller : Just be careful , dear . Sometimes it s best not to know .
Luis : I ve been looking all over for you .
Fancy : Look , Luis , it s ok . I understand .
Luis : What ?
Fancy : What I thought you said to me down in the mineshaft never happened . And if it did , you were so out of it , you probably did nt know what you were saying . Our lives were in jeopardy . It happens all the time -- at least in movies . It was the danger and it was the fear and I totally get that you re still in love with Sheridan . I know that she ll always be the only woman for you and I know that we do nt have any chance for a future together
Luis : Woman can you stop talking long enough for me to get this out ?
Fancy : Well the last thing I want to be is one of those women who refuses to take a hint .
Luis : Hello , can I say something here , cause -- ?
Fancy : No , you do nt have to sugarcoat it . I m a big girl , and I m just trying to make things easier by steering clear of you .
Luis : Oh my God , you re a motor mouth . Who would ve ever thought that I would fall in love with a motor mouth ?
Fancy : Well , the one thing I wo nt stand for is being called names . I -- What did -- what did you say ?
Luis : I said I love you . You re maddening and you re stubborn and god knows you re a lot of work , but despite my best efforts , it s a done deal . I love you .
Kay : No , no , no , it ca nt be . I do nt believe this .
Miguel : Charity ? Charity ?
Charity : Hi , Miguel .
Miguel : Oh , my God , what are you doing here ? I searched everywhere for you . I went out of my mind trying to find you . Oh , my God , I -- I missed you so much .
Charity : I missed you , too .
Miguel : I never thought I d see you again . God , I love you . I dream about you every day , every night .
Charity : Do you really ?
Miguel : I love you . I ve always loved you , from the second I saw you .
Whitney : Rebecca told me that she saw you at that motel .
Luis : I want you so much .
Fancy : This is all happening so fast .
Jared : So I m leaving Harmony for good .
### Summary:
| Kay and Miguel still wanted to tell Fox she is dumping him , but he kept them at bay most of the time . Finally , Kay managed to get him to listen , but as she started to explain , Charity walked in . Shocked as Kay was to see her cousin , Miguel was nothing but pleased as he told her he s always loved her and never thought he d see her again .... unless it s all Fox s dream . Luis chased Fancy around the party as she tried to duck him to keep from being hurt again , but once he found her , he told her he loves her . She did comment about how much Endora looks like her when she was young while she hid out in Tabby s kitchen , tho . The fortune teller told Theresa she will find the man she s supposed to be with on the wharf , and he ll have the other half of the coin she gives her . Later she stopped Jared and told him the same thing , giving him the other piece of the coin , and when Theresa and Jared met on the wharf , they fell into a kiss as they realized each was the person the gypsy had told them about . Paloma tried to catch Noah s eye , with mixed results , and Whitney , after trying to talk Jared into staying in Harmony , had her own chat with the fortune teller , who told her what she thinks about Chad is correct . Endora spent the day dousing Mummy Dearest with water each time she realized Charity is back and fainted at the thought . |

Skye : I was listening to your ideas about Emily s picnic . I d like for you to expand on them for me .
Alexis : You re having a picnic ?
Skye : Actually , a romantic dinner might be more effective .
Alexis : Will Mr. Jacks be joining you ?
Skye : No , but Mr. Ashton will .
Monica : You made the right decision , you know .
Emily : I hope so . Zander and I are having a picnic at the boathouse . And at the end of the day , I m going to tell him that I have cancer . Hey .
Ric : Ok , watch your step . Just follow me . I want you to come over here . Sit down , ok ? Because I plan on spoiling you rotten --
Elizabeth : Hmm .
Ric : Starting with breakfast , ok ?
Elizabeth : Ok . Well , let me help you --
Ric : No , no , no , no , no . I want you to stay right here . Listen -- think of me as your servant .
Elizabeth : Ok . I think I m liking this more and more .
Ric : So am I.
Elizabeth : Ok , hurry back .
Ric : All right , I will .
Ric : Elizabeth ? Oh , there you are . Here we go .
Elizabeth : What have you done ?
Sonny : I do nt care . I do nt care if Faith and her people were accounted for . She could have hired a contractor from out of town .
Jason : I do nt -- Sonny , I do nt think so . We check her bank account . She does nt have the kind of money for that .
Sonny : Do nt waste your time on Faith . We got to find who did this .
Jason : Ok , look , I m going to check some new sources , see if anyone in town has been showing any interest in you .
Sonny : Ok , this could -- you know , this could be , you know , connected to the drugs that were run through --
Jason : Right , yes .
Sonny : Do you understand what I m saying ?
Jason : Yes , I know .
Carly : Ok , so we will take you there -- out as soon as we get there , because the waves will be perfect for boogie - boarding , ok ?
Michael : Ok .
Sonny : You guys all packed up ?
Carly : Yep , we are . I was just telling Michael how much fun we re going to have on the island .
Sonny : Yeah , yeah , yeah . I wish I could come .
Carly : Well , maybe you can -- you know , after you ve finished your business here .
Sonny : Right .
Michael : Can you , Daddy ?
Sonny : We ll see . But in the meantime , I m sending Jason to make sure that everything s , you know , everything s fine .
Jason : Sonny ? You ca nt .
Sonny : I need you to make sure they make it to the airport and to the island .
Michael : Something bad s going to happen to daddy ?
Carly : No , sweetheart . Daddy s going to be here with Marco and Max --
Jason : Sonny , like you said , there could be a connection between the bombing and the drugs at Carly s .
Sonny : Right .
Jason : Ok ? So now , if you retaliate against Ric for this and you re wrong , you re going to leave yourself wide open for the person who really did this .
Sonny : I know . I m not like I was a month ago . I m thinking clearly . I m fine .
Jason : I know , but you know you should nt get personally involved .
Sonny : The only --
Jason : Let Max --
Sonny : The only way I can handle this is if I know my family s safe . The only way I know my family is safe is if you re with them . Do not fight me on this .
Jason : Ok . It s ok .
Sonny : All right . All right . Ah . You going to take care of your mama ?
Michael : Ok , Daddy .
Sonny : Ok . I know it scared you , right ? It scared you a lot . But you know what ? Sometimes things happen . You ca nt control what happens . But one thing I do know is you re going to be safe on that island . You re going to have a good time . You re going to be -- everything s going to be great , and I promise you the people who did this bad thing -- they re never going to hurt anybody again .
Michael : Be careful , Daddy .
Sonny : I will , ok ? Give me a hug now . All right .
Courtney : Hey , kid , you going to teach me how to boogie - board ?
Michael : Yep .
Courtney : Yep ? I ve always wanted to learn . Now I have to take a chance .
Michael : Yep .
Courtney : Yeah . You ready ?
Michael : Yep .
Carly : I d rather be here with you . You know that , right ?
Sonny : Yeah . It s not going to be -- it s not going to be for very long .
Carly : I ll be thinking of you every minute .
Sonny : Go .
Carly : Let s go , let s go .
Courtney : Ready ?
Carly : Yeah .
Courtney : You got it ?
Michael : Yep .
Courtney : All right .
Carly : I love you .
Ric : Sonny s going to come after me .
Elizabeth : I guess you did nt expect him to come out of this alive .
Ric : What ? I mean , you think I did this ?
Elizabeth : You just said Sonny s going to come after you .
Ric : No , because -- because of everything that I ve done to hurt him in the past . Look , revenge against Sonny used to be part of my life . Elizabeth , that was before I fell in love with you , before the baby .
Elizabeth : There you go again -- the perfect words for every occasion .
Ric : Elizabeth , you have every reason in the world to wonder if I m telling you the truth . But the one thing that I have never lied to you about is how much I love you . All right ? How much -- what we have now , we re going to have in the future . That s very precious to me . And I m not willing to risk losing that .
Elizabeth : I know you ve always been honest about your feelings for me .
Ric : Please believe me .
Elizabeth : I do .
Ric : Ok . I love you and this baby , and I want to give you both a good life . Just give me the chance to show you how much I love you and I always will . Ahem . Look at that . What is it ?
Ric : I -- I want to marry you , and I want to do it today .
Summer : Well , I m going to go take a shower . Do nt start the treasure hunt without me .
Lucky : So what s the plan ?
Nikolas : These are the old blueprints from Dolena .
Lucky : The what ?
Nikolas : Dolena -- it means the fields . That s the name of the house .
Lucky : What , your family name all their houses ?
Nikolas : They used to . I do nt even know if it s there anymore . But assuming it is -- right here -- assuming it is , there are several access points , and I think our best bet is probably here in the side basement .
Lucky : No , you know what ? Why do nt we just wait till Summer comes out , because I do nt want you to have to go through all this again .
Nikolas : The less Summer knows about this , the better , all right ?
Lucky : You know what ? Summer is in on this , Nikolas . Whether you like it or not , she s a part of the team .
Nikolas : I do nt trust her .
Lucky : Look , you were the one who bullied her into going after my father . What , now she s the one that ca nt be trusted ?
Nikolas : No , she s had her own agenda the whole time .
Lucky : Well , so have you .
Nikolas : She s been after the money since day one , Lucky , ready to do anything and everything it takes to get it .
Lucky : Is that what ticks you off ? That she refuses to give up ?
Nikolas : Lucky , Lucky , open your eyes , will you ? The lies about Summer s long- lost brother Matt , who turned out to be her partner and lover ? You re Matt s replacement .
Lucky : So what if I am ?
Nikolas : What -- Matt got a knife in his back !
Lucky : Summer is not the one who threw it . I m her alibi . She was with me the whole time .
Nikolas : Listen , listen , all Summer cares about is getting her hands on my money . That s it . All right , she knows we re in here talking about the plan . She s going to be working you .
Lucky : I wo nt tell her , ok ? It s your lost fortune . We ll search for it however you want .
Nikolas : Thank you . Now , you re the expert at breaking and entering , all right ? See if you can find the best way in . I m going to go rent a car .
Summer : Nikolas left ?
Lucky : Yeah . He -- he went to go rent a car .
Summer : Well , in that case
Emily : Hey , help me with this .
Zander : Yeah , sure .
Emily : Ah . You know , you can speak now , by the way .
Zander : What ?
Emily : Well , you ve barely said a word since we left the house .
Zander : Well , I -- I do nt know , Em . I just -- you know , I mean , you -- you said you never wanted to see me again . And now we re here on this picnic because you wanted to spend , you know , a perfect day together . I mean , I m not complaining about that .
Emily : I know a lot has been going on since I got back , like reconnecting with my family and starting the rehab program . I know I ve been all over the place .
Zander : And it s ok . I do nt mind you taking it out on me .
Emily : You re a wonderful person . You know that ?
Zander : You re the first one who thought so .
Emily : Well , you are . And to show you my appreciation , I have arranged this romantic afternoon just for the two of us , beginning with a picnic . Think you can get in the mood ?
Zander : As long as you promise me one thing .
Emily : Mm - hmm ?
Zander : That we will do this every year from now on -- one perfect afternoon just for ourselves . Just me and you until we re old and gray to celebrate 20 years , 40 years , 60 years .
Emily : That s a nice fantasy , Zander .
Zander : No , we ll make it real . Come on , let s go swimming . Before we eat . Come on .
Emily : I do nt know , I do nt know .
Zander : Come on !
Emily : The water s freezing .
Zander : Come on , come on . Come on .
Emily : Zander -- no , wait , I ca nt . I m
Elizabeth : You want to elope ? Right now ?
Ric : Yeah . Why wait ?
Elizabeth : Well , because I had something more traditional in mind . You know , like a minister , a wedding dress , family , friends --
Ric : No , no , and I m going to give you that , everything , I ll give you all of that after the baby s born , but I just feel like I ve wasted so much time already .
Elizabeth : Why hurry ? The baby and I are nt going anywhere .
Ric : Because I feel like I -- my life is divided into two parts -- the part that existed before I met you , and everything that I m going to share with you from now on . I want to go to bed as your husband and I want to wake up next to the woman who changed everything for me .
Elizabeth : And I want that , too .
Ric : I love you so much .
Elizabeth : Mmm , and I love you . You say that I changed your life ? Well , you ve changed mine just as much .
Ric : Really ?
Elizabeth : You know , I almost got married once before . And when that did nt work out , I thought I could never trust any man enough to want to make that commitment again .
Ric : Well , I m going to do everything in my power to convince you that you made the right decision .
Elizabeth : I want to marry you . And if you want to do it today , then we will .
Ric : Well , then let s go to the justice of the peace right now .
Elizabeth : Oh -- well , this is nt exactly how I want to appear in our family photo album , so --
Ric : What ? I think you look great .
Ric : Ok , so --
Elizabeth : Let me go home , change , pack , and I ll come back .
Ric : All right . Happy wedding day .
Elizabeth : I ca nt wait .
Sonny : I want him picked up and brought here .
Sonny : I m busy !
Marco : D.A. Baldwin to see you .
Scott : How well did you know the driver that was killed ?
Sonny : I just hired him . Why ?
Scott : Well , he had $ 300,000 in cash in a suitcase .
Sonny : Well , a lot of good it did him .
Scott : Somebody paid him a lot of money to take you out , but something went wrong , or he was expendable . But he s the link to who s ever trying to put you and your family six feet under . So that gives us a starting point .
Sonny : Us ?
Scott : Wise up , Corinthos , you re going to have to work with us . Otherwise , you re going to end up like all gangsters -- just a stain on the pavement . Now , this guy flew in under your radar . Your enemy is using your own employees to get to you . Were you just distracted by your brother ? Are you getting stupid in your old age ?
Sonny : Door s right there , Scotty .
Scott : You think that you re invincible . Well , you re not . You do this on your own and you re going to get your whole family killed , stupid .
Summer : Hey .
Nikolas : Heading out ?
Summer : Yeah . I was just going to go get some food .
Nikolas : Well , we can all go together in a little while .
Summer : No , I thought that you guys were going to try to figure out a way to get into the Cassadine palace , so -- I mean , you guys stay here , work on a plan , I ll go get food . Saves everybody time .
Lucky : Where s Summer ?
Nikolas : She went out for a snack , if you can believe that .
Lucky : Well , even untrustworthy ex - call girls get to eat .
Nikolas : Yeah , well , we ca nt wait for her . I got the car , went by the house . It s run down , but it s still there .
Lucky : Well , you know what ? I ve been thinking about those access points , and , you know -- The plans are gone . Summer .
Nikolas : Why do you look so surprised ?
Emily : Ok . You can come in now .
Zander : Wow .
Emily : Yeah . It s the first place where we made love .
Zander : Oh , I remember . I ll never forget . You were so beautiful in your prom dress , your smile . It was like magic , like I ll never forget .
Emily : Oh . This is my special day . Let me show you what I want .
Carly : Enrique , hi . Yeah , can you please call the landing strip and tell them to hold the plane . Mr. Morgan s going to be going back to the mainland . And he should be ready in about --
Jason : Yeah --
Carly : Ah --
Jason : I should be ready . Enrique , forget that . Tell the pilot to go and I ll call him if I need him . Thanks . Do nt ever give an order about me behind my back .
Carly : I was not giving an order about you , Jason . I am making a request . Will you please go back and take care of Sonny ?
Jason : Right now my job is to be here to keep you safe .
Carly : I m fine ! Sonny is not , ok ? Will you just -- whoever tried to kill him could do it again . Go back to him now !
Jason : Sonny trusted me with his family . He asked me to look after you . That s what I m going to do !
Courtney : Did nt you say that the best way to help Sonny was to do what he asked , Carly ?
Carly : Fine . It s fine , Jason . You do nt want to go back and help , I will take care of it myself .
Jason : No , no , Carly , you re not going anywhere .
Carly : I will go --
Jason : You re staying right here . If I have to lock you in your room , I will . And when Michael asks why I m treating his mom like a prisoner , I m going to have to tell him it s to keep you safe . Stop making things worse like you always do .
Carly : Oh , that s really nice , Jason . You know , you ve never failed me in my life , and now you re 100 % completely and totally failing me !
Scott : You going to tell me who s trying to kill you , or you just going to wait until he succeeds ?
Sonny : You know more than I do . You re the one with the preliminary report .
Scott : But I bet you know a lot more .
Sonny : Not at the moment .
Scott : You ve been top dog in this town for sometime . No one s been able to touch you . But last night someone came awfully close , did nt they ?
Sonny : I can see that really distresses you .
Scott : What are you going to do ? How do you think you re going to handle this ? What , are you just going to retaliate ? What if you go after the wrong guy ? What if there s other people out there ? What if you start a turf war and you get in the middle of it ?
Sonny : What if I walk across the street and I get struck by lightning ?
Scott : You know what ?
Sonny : Then what ?
Scott : You think you re invincible , but you re not . And one day you will come running to the cops , and we ll say , thanks , but , no , thanks . Bad things are going to happen to you and yours , and you know what ? I m not going to shed a tear .
Ric : Oh , great .
Man : Here s the bridal bouquet you ordered , Sir .
Ric : Thank you so much for getting it to me on such short notice .
Man : Yeah , congratulations .
Ric : Thank you . Take care . Let s see how this turned out . Oh , that s beautiful . Let me guess . Sonny wants to see me , right ?
Max : Let s go .
Ric : Ok , look , Max , will lay off , all right ? I m going ! I -- guys , watch the suit , will you ?
Nikolas : Let me take a wild guess . Summer just walked out of the shower and --
Nikolas : Right into your arms , right ?
Lucky : Look , man , I did nt tell her a thing .
Nikolas : Well , then how did she find out ?
Lucky : Look , I hid the blueprints . She must have searched the place while I was taking a shower .
Nikolas : Well , you obviously did nt hide them very well , did you ?
Lucky : Ok , you re right . You know , I should have realized that Summer would have searched the place . You know what ? But also , she must have known that you were going to cut her out of her share .
Nikolas : Share ? What share ? It s my family s money , and she s trying to use you to get it , and you know what ? It s working .
Lucky : Oh , would you just listen to yourself ? You were determined to cut her out of this whole thing , all right ?
Nikolas : Oh , I see , I see . So Summer , who just double - crossed you again , is just some misunderstood innocent . Is that right ?
Lucky : You know what ? I m real clear on what Summer is and what she is nt . She went behind my back to steal the plans , but at the moment , I m -- you know what ? I trust her about as much as I trust you .
Summer : Excuse me . Hi . I m visiting from the states , and my guidebook said that there s a former palace near here , that the original owners were the Cassadines ?
Waiter : This is the place .
Soldier : You ! You are mine .
Summer : What ? Whoa ! Hey , no , no , put me down ! No , no , put me down ! Put me down ! Hey , put me down !
Woman : Welcome to Dolena ! From now on , you work for me .
Summer : Oh , no , no ! I am an American citizen ! No , no , I do nt work for this lady ! Mister , put me down ! I ll pay you money --
Summer : Let me go !
Emily : This has been the best day .
Zander : Our lives are going to be filled with these days .
Emily : You know , I ve been thinking about our life together .
Zander : Me , too . After my brother died , I -- I thought that any perfect days died with him . I was running from the past , finding bigger and better ways to screw up . Then I met you . Something inside me came alive again .
Emily : Yeah . Sometimes the best things do nt last .
Zander : That s why I m glad I met you . When I was a little kid , I used to dream of all the places I d go when I was older -- the big Tetons and Alaska , northern lights . But I never pictured doing it by myself . I always had this image of someone along my side sharing it with me . Now that I have you , that dream is going to become a reality , all those places we will go , all the time that we have left . When we got here , you said I was too quiet . Now you ca nt get me to shut up .
Emily : Oh , no . I like listening .
Zander : You sounded like you had something to say .
Emily : It s -- it s about what I ve been going through .
Zander : Rehab ?
Emily : It s -- it s harder than I thought it would be .
Zander : Hey , Em ?
Emily : Yeah ?
Zander : I m in your corner . I m going to help you get through this . We ll do it together . I promise .
Ric : Max , all right , we re here ! Will you --
Sonny : Max , close the door . Stay inside .
Ric : Ok , Sonny , look , I read the paper this morning . I know what you must be thinking .
Sonny : Shut up , Ric .
Ric : I had nothing to do with it .
Sonny : You wanted a truce . You swore on your unborn child you were nt going to be the one to break it .
Ric : Yes , and I meant every word .
Sonny : No , every word that comes out of your mouth is a lie . I m tired of this garbage about peace and good intentions . You want me dead .
Ric : Look , Sonny , I have a child on the way . There s no way in the world I would want to provoke you .
Sonny : I was nt supposed to be around to retaliate !
Ric : Elizabeth and I are about to get married ! For the first time in my life , I have a future to look forward to ! Why would I --
Sonny : You wanted me out of the way so that way I would nt threaten your family the way you threatened mine .
Ric : Sonny , please , I swear to you on our mother --
Sonny : Forget our mother ! I m tired of you talking about our mother ! I do nt care anymore that you re her son ! I m tired of playing games with you . It ends !
Ned : Good evening , Dobson .
Alexis : Good evening , Sir .
Ned : Skye called and invited me for dinner .
Alexis : Ms. Quartermaine is in the living room , Sir .
Ned : Thank you .
Skye : Uh -- wrong way , Ned . I m just about to put Kristina down . Would you like to join us ?
Ned : Of course . Dobson , give us enough time for Good Night , Moon and a lullaby , and then we ll be ready for dinner .
Zander : That was nice .
Emily : Mm - hmm .
Zander : Want me to stay here a while ?
Emily : There s always someone in the house who s furious about something , and our day s been too perfect to spoil it with a family fight .
Zander : Ok . We ll end it here .
Emily : Hmm . Ok .
Zander : Anything else you want to tell me ?
Emily : Why do you ask ?
Zander : I do nt know . I just -- I get the feeling that there s something else on your mind .
Emily : Only this .
Zander : Ok . I can handle that . Good night .
Emily : Good night .
Zander : Bye .
Emily : It s Emily . I m in huge trouble . Call me as soon as you get this .
Lucky : Ok , so what if Summer stole the plans to the palace ? I mean , she s just beating you at your own game .
Nikolas : All right , fine . Then take the next plane home .
Lucky : No . Not while my dad s still in the middle of this .
Nikolas : Oh , Luke s always been able to take of himself . He s fine .
Lucky : Well , he s not exactly , say , rational when it comes to Cassadines . If I m not around to step in , it could get dangerous .
Nikolas : I m not trying to cause trouble for Luke .
Lucky : I m thinking about more of what he might do to you .
Nikolas : He s still fighting my father in his head , and that s in the past . I do nt want anything to do with it anymore .
Lucky : Ok , fine ! Then why are you here ?
Nikolas : All I want is what belongs to me , nothing more -- no revenge , no temporary victory in this ridiculous Spencer - Cassadine war . All right , you and I agreed that the war was over . We were the ones who were supposed to turn it around , Lucky . We said that we were going to be brothers instead of enemies . That s why I m putting up with Summer and the only reason why I even considered bringing Luke along . We trusted each other once , and we lost that trust . I do nt know about you , but I want my brother back .
Summer : Agh ! Would you stop tossing me around like a rag doll ?
Soldier : Rag doll ?
Summer : Look , I do nt belong here , and I certainly do nt belong to you .
Soldier : You are mine !
Summer : Oh ! Forget what the Madam said , ok ? I ve never met the woman before in my life ! Look , I m a tourist . I am a tourist , not a hooker , ok ? I have a husband and six children in Des Moines , Iowa , and they re going to be very upset when they find out that I was in a bordello with you .
Soldier : Nyet !
Summer : No ! I got to go ! I have to go ! I got --
Luke : [ Russian accent ] what is tourist from Des Moines doing in place like this ?
Courtney : Are you ok ?
Jason : Yeah . I just had to get away from Carly for a while .
Courtney : Oh , she s concerned about Sonny , and I know you are , too .
Jason : Yeah , if having me guard all of you gives him the peace of mind he needs to deal with things right now , I got to respect that .
Courtney : I know .
Jason : You know , when we were in the crash in the snowstorm , I promised that I d bring you to a place like this . I mean , this island was one of the places I wanted to take you , but not like this .
Courtney : We have years ahead of us . We ll come back .
Jason : Yes , we will .
Courtney : In the meantime , the beach is beautiful . The breeze is warm . For what it s worth , I m happy to be here with you .
Michael : Why were you yelling at Jason ?
Carly : Come here . Because Jason is mommy s oldest and dearest friend , and sometimes I get impatient and I say things that I do nt mean .
Michael : But why were you fighting ? Are the bad guys going to hurt daddy ?
Carly : No , sweetie , daddy s just fine . He s strong and he s brave and he is at home and he is -- he s fixing things . And we want to help him , right ?
Michael : Yeah .
Carly : Yeah . That s why we re here on the island where it s nice and safe .
Elizabeth : Ric ?
Ric : Sonny , there was a time when I would have wanted you to kill me . Knowing -- knowing that you were responsible for killing your own brother and you had to live with that ? That would have been my revenge . I m trying to start my own family . I m begging you , do nt do this . I m innocent .
Sonny : You re still lying .
Sonny : Yeah ?
Man : The limo explosion was proof we can get to you anytime , Corinthos .
Sonny : Who is this ?
Man : We ll be contacting you soon to open negotiations .
Sonny : Listen , you come to me . You stay away from my family , you hear me ? You hear me ?
Luke : You re actually falling in love with my son .
Faith : If you think Ric s going to show up , you re in for a big disappointment .
Sonny : Tell me who s coming after me and how they plan to strike .
Carly : Sweetie , we re all safe , ok ?
Ned : Have some water . Drink slowly .
Alexis : Allow me , Madam .

So would you mind if we just expanded the guest list a little ? You know , added a few more people to your surprise party for Belle ? Tell you what -- you think about it , and we ll just finish unloading the car .

Woman : Mr. Black , that woman over there -- I remember now . I sold her one of the suits .
John : Doc ... why did nt you tell me you have that blue suit ?
Marlena : John , most women have a -- a simple dark suit . That is nt unusual .
John : But you have this suit that you bought right here at baron s .
Marlena : Ha ha ha ha ha . Ah . I m so crazy . I thought I d bought it downtown .
John : Well , what about this ?
Marlena : What about that ?
John : Damn it , Marlena , come on . This was found at the murder scene -- the attempted murder scene . Do nt you understand ? This can incriminate you . This can link you to all the killings .
Marlena : What are you saying , John ? Are you saying you think I m guilty ?
Lucas : Where the hell are you , Sami ? What kind of game is she playing now ? If you think I m going to chase after you ... you can forget it , sweetie .

Sami : Help . Help ! Somebody help me ! Aah !
Lucas : Damn it . Damn it , Sami , I ca nt sleep knowing you re out there .
Lucas : Sounded like somebody screaming . Sami ? Nah .
Sami : [ Faintly ] Aah !
Lucas : Now that is a scream . I got to make sure -- I got to make sure ... I ca nt believe this , Sami . You know what ? You are really going to pay for this .
Sami : Help me , somebody .
Sami : Lucas , please . Please help me . You have to rescue me , please , Lucas .
Lucas : Nah . She could nt have gone in there .
Sami : Lucas , please help me .
Julie : Philip , what are you doing here ?
Belle : I called him . I knew that we d need help setting up for the party .
Philip : So I called my buddy Tek , and of course , he was more than willing to help .
Tek : I figured it d be a welcome change of pace .
Philip : Well , we all need a break , and I think a Romantic Valentine s Day party is a pretty cool way to do it .
Doug : Well , thank you , guys . We could use the extra bodies .
Julie : You may regret it . Lot of heavy lifting to do -- tables , chairs -- and there s decorations to hang .
Philip : Has Tuscany even been used since New Year s , when Roman was murdered ?
Julie : No . And the place is pretty much trashed . So I want to stage an upscale party and prove to uncle Mickey it s time to move on .
Philip : Well , what s going to end up happening to this place ?
Julie : Well , Mickey is too emotionally involved to think of doing anything right now , so I need to prove to him that I would be the perfect person to reopen Tuscany as the wonderful 4-star restaurant it always was . I think that d be a great tribute to Maggie .
Tek : All right , so what do we do first ?
Doug : Well , you saw the piano out in the truck ? You guys lift the piano down and roll it in , okay ?
Philip : Piano ?
Tek : Uh ...
Doug : That s a bit much ? Okay , well , then , we ll start in the kitchen .
Tek : Funny . I like that .
Belle : I think maybe we ll need a few more of my friends to help out . Is that okay ?
Julie : The more , the merrier . Thank you , darling .
Philip : So you going to -- you going to call Shawn ?
Belle : Oh , God , no . This whole surprise is for Shawn .
Philip : Gotcha . I really wish I had someone special to surprise on Valentine s Day .
Belle : Philip . Do you have a girlfriend ? Because if you do , I want all the details .
Philip : No , no , no , no way . A guy has to have some secrets , right ?
Belle : Well , wait a second . I left my coat in the kitchen .
Philip : Come on .
Bonnie : Oh , you got it ? You sure ? Okay , okay , all right , just got to watch the horns . Hold on , watch -- watch the horns . Ha ha ha . You in ? You all right ? Okay , great . Oh , Shawn , you are a real sweetheart to want to share Belle s surprise party with a few other special guests .
Shawn - D : How many other special guests ?
Bonnie : Well , I was going to invite Mimi and Rex , but Rex had a Valentine s surprise of his own . He s going to take Mimi to a spa overnight . But there are plenty of other people that I can invite to this shindig .
Shawn - D : Who else , Bonnie ?
Bonnie : Well , Mickey , of course . In fact , all the Horton s are welcome . Except Julie . I m going to show that stuck - up society dame that I m the one running this rodeo . And you can invite the Brady s , as well . Just you wait until I get this place country - fried . Ha ha ha ha . Dumplin , why do nt we set these boxes of decorations in the storeroom for now , okay ?
Shawn - D : Sure .
Bonnie : Great . Okay . Heave - ho .
Shawn - D : You got it ?
Bonnie : I got it . Thanks , sweetie . Oh , coming through .
Julie : Well , I m glad your father can come down . You know , he needs a break , too .
Belle : Yeah . I just hope a special Valentine s Day party is exactly what my parents need to reconcile . Thanks again , Julie .
Julie : What the hell ? What is this doing here ?
John : I m not accusing you , but the fact that you bought that blue suit -- sweetheart , Shawn found this button on the catwalk where the killer planted that bucket of blood . Doc , you re giving Celeste hypnotherapy . If you re on the verge of I.D.ing this killer , you could be a target .
Marlena : The killer is nt going to hurt me , John .
John : How can you be so sure ?
Jan s voice : Nicole made me do it . It was her idea !
Brady : Nicole ? Nicole ! What s wrong with you ?
Nicole : Nothing . Let s go in .
Brady : Good evening , Granddad .
Victor : Well ... is there a problem , Nicole ?
Nicole : No , I just wanted to make sure you re still here . I have to keep an eye on you , Victor , to know you re not planning to do something against me .
Brady : Why do you keep checking that thing ?
Nicole : I e - mailed my brother Brandon earlier , and I want to see if he answered it .
Jan : Why is nt Victor dead yet ? [ Thinking ] Ca nt do it . I ca nt kill Shawn s grandfather . It s too sad . You have no choice . Are you in the mansion ? [ Thinking ] Yes . If you want Shawn , Victor dies tonight .
Nicole : I m tired . I need to go upstairs and take a nap .
Brady : Well , I have work to do with my grandfather , Nicole . Just as soon as I send those faxes , right , Granddad ?
Victor : That s fine , Brady .
Nicole : No , it s not fine , Granddad . Brady , I want to go upstairs to bed now !
Jan : Sorry , Shawn . I have no choice . I have to do this .
Bonnie : I think there s just one more box . Hey , what happened to my horns ? They re supposed to get the cowboys horny for the cowgirls . Now , where d they go ?
Shawn - D : Beats me . Excuse me .
Bonnie : No , you know , I -- I m going to get to the bottom of this .
Julie : Tek , please throw this doggie in the dumpster .
Tek : Are you sure ? It might come in handy in a bullfight .
Julie : Oh , please , if it was a bar with sawdust on the floor and peanut shells -- this is an upscale party we are planning . So after you toss this , would you give Doug a hand with the champagne ?
Tek : Okay . Yeah , I got to look at those , uh , crystal champagne glasses and expense e china -- the last thing you need is some drunken guest pretending to be a bull .
Julie : Exactly .
Bonnie : What -- hey ! Come back here with those ! Yo , dude ! Those are mine !
Shawn - D : Philip . Our gung - ho party planner recruit you for this , too ?
Philip : Yeah , what are you doing here , man ?
Shawn - D : Well , actually , all of this is to surprise Belle .
Philip : Oh ... well , I think a lot of people are going to be surprised tonight .
Shawn - D : What , are you bringing a date to the party ?
Philip : That Intel is classified , my friend .
Shawn - D : Hey , whatever , man . I like surprises . Hey , listen , can you do me a favor ? If boss lady asks , I went to go run an errand . I have to get another surprise for Belle .
Philip : All right , all right .
Shawn - D : Thanks , man .
Philip : Just hurry up . We got a lot of tables and chairs to unload , okay ?
Shawn - D : If I m not back in two minutes , why do nt you just go ahead and get started without me ?
Philip : [ Sarcastic ] Thanks , I appreciate that . What a guy .
Julie : Philip ...
Philip : Yes , maam .
Julie : Would you lend me those round , strong arms to do some heavy lifting ?
Philip : But of course . Lead the way .
Bonnie : [ Grumbling ] Jeez ... here we go . That s better . Next person tries to throw you in the dumpster , I m going to beat em with you . That s right , baby . Eww ... whose idea were these ? Boring . Got ta find those paper napkins with the bright fiesta colors . They do nt show stains , and they re disposable . Am I the only person who knows how to throw a party around here ?
Doug : What are you doing here ? If Julie sees you , she ll have a cow . Ha ha ha ha . Pardon the expression . That s a joke , son . Sorry , dude , but this party tonight is going to be respectable . You see , um , there s going to be no hoedowns . No way . No , sir . No bull . That s the way it s going to be . You re going to the barn . No , you re going to the corral , that s where you re going .
John : Listen , we ll just check your suit out , see if it s got all its buttons , and then we ll be done with it .
Marlena : Well , of course it does , and why would my suit be ripped ?
John : Listen , I m sure it s not , but I ll get a closer look at what the killer might ve been wearing .
Marlena : [ Thinking ] He ll see my suit is torn . He ll know I m the killer .
Lucas : So help me , Sami ... if this is your idea of fun and games , I m not going for it .
Sami : Be careful , Lucas ! Save me ! There s a --
Lucas : Thanks for the warning , Sami .
Nicole : Look , I m not trying to get Brady upstairs to put the moves on him , okay ? I m exhausted . That s all .
Brady : Nicole , my grandfather and I have some final bids to look over .
Nicole : Well , fine . Wake me up when you re finished .
Brady : You know what ? I ca nt take this anymore , Granddad .
Victor : That s enough for tonight , Brady .
Brady : Now come on , Nicole . I m going to take you upstairs so you can go to sleep .
Victor : One word of caution . Lie down with a bitch , you wake up with fleas .
Nicole : Ha ha ha . So what are you telling him , Victor , huh -- to throw on some flea powder ?
Victor : No , just sleep with your eyes open .
Brady : Do nt worry , Granddad . Nothing s going to happen .
Victor : In the meantime , I ll keep making calls , see if I ca nt get somebody down here to open those titanium cuffs .
Brady : Oh , thank you , and please hurry . Say good night , Gracie .
Nicole : Good night , Gracie .
Nicole : I thought my room would be better .
Brady : You said you were nt going to put the moves on me .
Nicole : Well , I sleep better in my own bed .
Brady : Well , I m not very tired . And by the way , I plan on keeping my grandfather s advice and sleep with my eyes open .
Nicole : Great . So read a book . I do nt give a damn .
Brady : What the hell are you doing ?
Nicole : I sleep better naked . Do you have a problem with that ?
Brady : [ Sighs ]
Victor : Who s there ?
Marlena : John ?
John : Doc , I ca nt find any designer blue suit in here . Where is it ?
Marlena : Well , it must be in there unless I took it to the cleaners . You know what ? Um , maybe I put it in a drawer somewhere .
John : A designer suit in a drawer ?
Marlena : Well , ha ha ha ha . Women . Uh , you know , let me go through this stuff , and you can check the drawers for me , okay ?
John : Yep .
Marlena : Oh ! Here it is . It was right there under my trench coat .
John : I did nt see that . Any buttons missing ?
Marlena : Uh ... no , no . All in one piece . You want to look at it ? You said you wanted to see what the suit looked like .
John : Yeah .
John : Hold on .
John : John Black .
Tek : Hey , John , it s Tek . Did you find anything at baron s ?
John : Yeah , Tek , I think we re on to something . We are looking for a navy blue woman s designer suit with a button and accompanying fabric missing .
Tek : So , was it purchased at baron s ?
John : Yeah , I think so . Marlena has one , but it s intact . Now , I am assuming that there are approximately 10 other ones out there . We need to find out who bought one in the last couple weeks or so .
Tek : All right . So I ll get forensics on it .
John : All right , I ll bring in the button and the ripped fabric , let you boys get to work on it . This could do it , Tek . This could lead us right to the killer . Mm - hmm . No . I m at the penthouse right now . Where are you ? All right , I ll meet you there . Yeah . Doc ? What s wrong ?
Sami : Lucas , thank God you re here . You have to save me !
Sami : Lucas , no ! You bastard ! You coward ! How could you desert me like this ? You tell our son that you left me to get eaten by a tiger !
Sami : [ Gasps ]
Lucas : Sami . Sami , are you okay ? Sami , can you hear me ? Oh , Sami , are you okay ?
Marlena : Oh .
John : What s wrong , doc ?
Marlena : Oh , there s a -- there s a nasty spill on my coat . I m going to have to get that cleaned . [ Gasps ] Oh , what ? What ?
John : You -- you look pale . Are you all right ?
Marlena : No . No , I - I - I -- no , I ve got a -- a terrible headache . I - Id like to lie down . Uh , do nt you want to give that to forensics ?
John : Yeah . You sure you re going to be all right by yourself ?
Marlena : Sure . The building is secure . I ll put the alarm on .
John : I want to stay here with you tonight .
Marlena : No . Uh ... no . I - Id rather be alone .
John : Call me if you need me .
Marlena : Mm - hmm .
Belle : Oh , Dad .
John : Hey , baby .
Belle : I m so glad I found you .
John : Is everything all right ?
Belle : Yes , we need your help .
John : We ?
Belle : I m over at Tuscany with Doug , Julie , Philip , and ...
John : Tek .
Belle : How d you know ?
John : I just spoke with him . So , what are you doing over there ?
Belle : Well , I m setting up a surprise Valentine s Day party for Shawn , so we re getting Tuscany ready , and I thought it d be a good idea if you brought Mom over .
John : Mm . I do nt think your mother wants to spend Valentine s Day with me .
Belle : But , Dad , it s going to be really Romantic , and I have a feeling it might help the two of you get back together .
Brady : Hey ... just ... slide it off ...
Nicole : There . Well , let s go to bed .
Brady : All right , well , nothing is going to happen . This is ridiculous , Nicole .
Nicole : Did you hear something ?
Brady : No . Not a thing .
Nicole : Right . Okay .
Brady : You sound disappointed . Are you expecting to hear something ?
Nicole : No . Uh ... I just hope Victor s all right .
Victor : I ve got it , Henderson . Well , Shawn , what a pleasant surprise .
Shawn - D : Hello , Victor .
Victor : Come in .
Shawn - D : Ahem .
Victor : What brings you here ?
Shawn - D : I need a favor to make this the perfect Valentine s Day for Belle .
Victor : You name it , I ll be glad to oblige .
Shawn - D : Really ? Wow . Thanks a lot .
Victor : Here , let me have your coat . I ll hang it up .
Lucas : Come on . Please be alive . Please , Sami , I ca nt lose you . Wake up . Come on , Sami . Please . That s it . Wake up . Wake up . Come on .
Sami : Lucas , what are we doing in this ... cave ?
Lucas : We re on a school camping trip with will . And you went to gather firewood , and you ended up in this cave . You were trapped by a tiger , Sami . I scared it away .
Sami : A tiger ? Oh , my God , will ! We have to go get him !
Lucas : No , no , do nt worry about it . Do nt worry about it . He s fine . Everybody s fine . The tiger went over the hill . He went away from the campsite everything s great . I m worried about you , though . How are you ?
Sami : I m okay . I just -- oh , my God . Lucas , I lost my wedding ring . I ve lost my ring .
Lucas : Ring ? What are you talking about ?
Sami : Our wedding ring . Do nt tell me you ve forgotten that we re married .
Bonnie : What the -- you ...
Julie : Is this somebody s idea of a joke ? Who brought this stuff in here ?
Doug : You know I did nt .
Philip : It was nt me .
Julie : Well , let s put the kitsch in the kitchen .
Doug : Okay . I wonder -- yeah . Okay , you pull . I ll grunt .
Julie : All right , sweetie .

Bonnie : Yes , yes , let me see . Do , do . Up , up , up , up , up .
Philip : How s that ?
Bonnie : Oh , much better .
Philip : Okay .
Bonnie : I m going to go find my balloon and Mr. Cupid .
Julie : Aloha , oy ! No , no , take this down , sweetheart , down . And the garlands up .
Philip : Put this up ?
Julie : Up , up !
Philip : What the hell is going on here ?
Belle : After all the killings , we figured that we needed a break , especially you and Mom .
John : I appreciate your support , I really do , but ... do nt bank on it .
Belle : Oh . Hey , Dad , did you find anything out about that button and the fabric that we found at the circus tent ?
John : Yes . And I think you and Shawn may have broken this case .
Belle : Really ?
John : Mm - hmm . We found out that suit is sold exclusively at Baron s . In fact , your mother has one of those suits . Of course , it was nt torn .
Belle : I knew that the button and the fabric looked familiar . I thought it came from , like , a clown s costume or something , but I must ve seen Mom wear it . Is she home ?
John : Mm - hmm . Yeah , she s upstairs .
Belle : Well , try and get her to come to Tuscany with you , even if it s for , like , an hour .
John : All right , I ll give it my best shot . Right now I need to see Tek , though , and give him that fabric and button . And then I ve got to ask around to see if there were any other women at the circus that were wearing blue designer suits . See ya .
Shawn - D : Actually , you know , I m going to keep my coat on because I m not going to be staying for very long .
Victor : All right , well , let s go in the living room . You can tell me what you need .
Nicole s voice : Done yet ?
Jan : [ Thinking ] No . I ca nt .
Nicole : [ Thinking ] Why not ?
Jan : [ Thinking ] Shawn s here with Victor .
Jan : Bail now , and you ll never get Shawn .
Victor : Sit down .
Shawn - D : Well , I want to surprise Belle for valentine s . I want to make it a special night for her .
Victor : Let me guess . You d like to borrow the limo .
Shawn - D : Yeah , that s exactly-- that would be great .
Victor : All right . I ll stock it with Belgian chocolates and some of my favorite CDs .
Shawn - D : Thanks . What kind of CDs ?
Victor : Romantic music , my boy .
Shawn - D : Well ... thanks , Victor , I appreciate it .
Victor : You know , I used to listen to these when they were back on vinyl with your grandmother . I was never that much in love again in my life . You make the same kind of music with Belle . Only , do nt make the same mistakes I did . Never give up , and do nt let anybody come between you .
Shawn - D : Well , thanks , Victor . I m sure this is going to be the best Valentine s Day ever .
Jan : [ Thinking ] I ca nt lose Shawn . As soon as he leaves , I m going to do it .
Lucas : Ahem , Sami , we , uh , we do have a son together , and we should get back and make sure he s okay . Come on .
Sami : Okay , let s go . Ow ! Oh !
Lucas : What ? What s the matter ?
Sami : My ankle . I think it s sprained .
Lucas : This one right here ?
Sami : Yeah .
Lucas : Does that hurt ? Bad ?
Sami : Well ...
Lucas : Well , it could be sprained . I do nt think it s broken , though . You re going to be okay , all right . Do nt worry about it .
Sami : You always make me feel better . That s why I love you so much .
Jan : [ Thinking ] Shawn s gone . The coast is clear . I ll kill the old geezer .
Nicole : Good . Hurry up and do it .
Brady : What did you say , Nicole ?
John : I believe the killer was wearing a dark blue designer suit at the circus fundraiser the night Tony was mauled . And it was cut from this fabric . Remember anybody wearing a suit like that ?
Julie : Well , you know , Marlena was wearing a suit like that .
John : I know she was , but we already checked that out . It s not the one . But if we can find who was wearing a suit like it , we may have found our killer .
Julie : And you found this piece of evidence ? Good going .
Shawn - D : Thanks . Well , I just hope it helps .
Julie : Good luck , John .
John : Yeah , thanks for your help .
Julie : What are these horns doing here again ? What in the world is going on with this ?
Bonnie : Coming through ! Coming through ! Who trashed my decorations ?
Julie : I did . Do you have a problem with that ?
Bonnie : Well , I have a big problem with it , sister .
Philip : Uh , Doug , we need to do a little damage control here ?
Doug : No , Philip , I do nt think we need to get in the middle of that little crossfire .
Philip : Ah .
John : Here we go , Tek . Do your thing . If we track down the suit that was ripped from , we re finally going to nail our killer .
Marlena : It was a nice suit , but I ve got to destroy the evidence .
Belle : Mom .
Marlena : [ Gasps ]
Belle : What are you doing ?
Lucas : Did I hear you right ?
Sami : Well , yeah , you re my husband , the father of my son , and I love you . I always have , and I always will . You saved my life tonight . I want to be with you . Make love to me , Lucas .
Brady : What did you just say , Nicole -- hurry up and do what ?
Nicole : Uh ... nothing . I do nt know . I - I - I ... must ve been talking in my sleep . I was dreaming about you . We were ... lying in a meadow kissing . And I wanted you to make love to me so I said , hurry up . Do it now .
Brady : [ Groans ]
Julie : What are you even doing here ? I told Mickey I could run Tuscany .
Bonnie : [ Scoffs ] Yeah . But did he give you the green light ? Ooh , I do nt think so . Because he gave me the keys to set up for a party here . I m going to prove to Mickey that I should be running Tuscany . I got more taste and savvy in half my pinkie than you do in your -- ha -- colossal butt .
Julie : Bitch !
Bonnie : Aah ! Aah !
Julie : Ha ha ha ! Ha ha ha ha !
Bonnie : Ha ha ha ha ! Bull s - eye ! Ha ha ha ha !
Julie : I ll show you the bull s eye when I stick these where the sun do nt shine .
Bonnie : Aah ! Aah ! Get away from me !
Tek : Okay , I ll get on this right away . Now , there s at least one more lady out there with a suit like your wife s , only torn with a button missing .
John : Mm - hmm .
Tek : Let s find her , and let s end this nightmare .
John : You ve got that right . What s wrong , kid ?
Shawn - D : It s strange . I just got the shivers like my mom and dad get when one of them are in danger . Where s Belle ?
John : Do nt worry . She s with her mother . Could nt be any safer than that , right ?
Belle : That s it . That s the suit that the killer was wearing at the circus the night Tony was murdered . Why are you cutting it up ?
Next on Days Of Our Lives
Belle : Mom , tell me the truth . What s going on ?
Marlena : It ll all be over pretty soon , sweetie .
Jennifer : We wanted them to go on living , and they ignored us . And I hate them for that .
Jan : As soon as I kill Victor Kiriakis , we can finally be together .
Shawn - D : Do it , Jan. Make me proud .
Nicole : I love you so much .
Brady : I love you , too .
Hope : Take a look at this .
John : And what s this ?
Hope : You re looking at the name of the killer .

JJ : Wow . [ Laughs ]
Paige : Lots of old memories .
JJ : This is awesome .
Eve : Actually , I d really like to forget about every single second of the last 24 hours .
Eric : That bad ? You know , sometimes talking about it helps--
Eve : Oh , no , no , no . Mm - mm . I do nt want to bore you with the drama of my life . But , uh , for your information , it started when I found out I could nt have my throat surgery . It turns out , what I need done is not possible and chances of me ever having a singing career are done .
Eric : I m sorry . I know how much it meant to you .
Eve : Yeah ... pretty much everything . That s actually why I was pounding down those drinks last night . Could I ask you a favor ?
Eric : Yeah , sure .
Eve : Well , would you mind keeping the news about my surgery under your hat for a little while ?
Eric : Of course .

Kayla : Okay . I will see you then .
Brady : Thanks . Hey , hey , hey . What do you say we do a reboot and , uh ... start again ?
Aiden : I did nt kill Meredith , hope . But you do nt have to take my word for it . It s all there ... online . Enjoy .
Hope : Aiden .
Aiden : Oh , I almost forgot . I brought these for you ... for being a bit of a jerk earlier in the square . I m sorry .
Hope : Please do nt go . Do nt leave .
Aiden : Okay .
Hope : First , thank you for these . But , Aiden , you need to understand--
Aiden : Hope , I do . I - I ... I understand . Look , if you wanted to run an online search on me , you would ve done it a long time ago . Quite frankly , I m surprised you waited this long .
Hope : I know you re a very private person . I wanted to respect that .
Aiden : Well , thank you . But if you had nt seen me with Bree Tjaden or completely overreact with Nicole , you probably still would nt know , so ...
Hope : Probably .
Aiden : Now you know why I thought Nicole s idea was nt so hot . My past as entertainment-- quite a concept , considering . Well , I ll go , let you get back to your reading .
Hope : No , wait . I do nt want to read about it .
Aiden : Seriously ? You d rather stay in the dark ?
Hope : No . I want you to tell me what happened .
Abigail : The reason I came here was because I wanted to talk to you about something , something important . When you were upset that Chad was the one who got me my job back ... I should have paid more attention to the way that made you feel , Ben .
Ben : Well , I did nt even give you a chance . I just started mouthing off , making it all about me , you know , and ... sometimes it just really hits home . I ve got to be the dumbest guy alive .
Abigail : What ?
Ben : I m serious . Abigail , for the first time in my life , I have somebody who is smart and beautiful and just totally special . And when something pops up that makes me feel like I could lose that ... lose you ... I go crazy .
Abigail : Well , I would probably do the same thing ... because I do nt want to lose you either .
Ben : Really ?
Abigail : Yes , really . Yes , I m with someone who is so amazing , who cares about me , just me ... who is nt trying to manipulate things or play some kind of angle . You make me really happy , Ben . And I want to be with you .
JJ : This is so cool . It must have been a ton of work .
Paige : Not really . Well , a little bit , yeah . But I did nt even think about it . All I thought about was you . I love it when we re together . It just feels so perfect .
Eric : No worries . I ve already forgotten what you said .
Eve : Thank you .
Eric : So you know what ? I ll email you when I m done with those photos .
Eve : Okay . Thanks , Eric , so much .
Eric : You re welcome .
Brady : [ Sighs ] You sure you do nt want something to eat ?
Theresa : I m not hungry ... slightly nauseated , actually , although it was worse this morning . I took one sip of coffee . I had to dump the rest down the drain . Look , uh ... in case you re wondering ... after Kayla runs the pregnancy test and proves that I m pregnant , I ll have her run a paternity test as well .
Brady : I ... I m sure that we do nt need that .
Maggie : When does Parker get home ?
Daniel : Um , a couple more days , yeah .
Maggie : Oh , I miss that little guy .
Daniel : Yeah .
Maggie : I bought him a couple of action figures at the toy store yesterday .
Daniel : Mom , he has too many toys already . He does nt need--
Maggie : You know what ? You are nt trying to talk me out of spoiling my grandson , are you ? Please . Cause it wo nt work .
Daniel : Okay .
Maggie : [ Laughs ]
Daniel : Okay .
Maggie : Honey , is something else bothering you ? You just seem all -- I do nt know -- out of focus today .
Daniel : Well , you might as well know . It s , um ... it s about Jennifer .
Aiden : There s no way to sugarcoat it . Meredith and I were ... well , unhappy would nt even begin to describe it . But we loved chase . So we both worked hard to keep the marriage going . Maybe we should nt have . I - I do nt know . My God , the fights , you know ... neighbors on both sides of us in Portland , our second home in Puget sound , they could tell you how we fought ... every day ... just constantly talking about divorce . You know , never with each other , always with , you know , friend , co - worker , anyone who d listen , but ... it always came back to chase . Neither one of us wanted to lose our son , you know , or break his heart by splitting up . You understand that all too well , I know .
Hope : I do .
Aiden : So we stuck it out ... although it became increasingly difficult . I guess we all find different ways , you know , to numb the pain . For Meredith , it was alcohol ... which is why I rarely touch the stuff . I just -- I remember how it affected her , and I just became intolerant of that kind of behavior in other people , you know , this ... myself too .
Hope : Right .
Aiden : And then ... at some point ... [ Sighs ] I m not sure ... where or why ... although I can speculate why , of course ... she , um ... she had a gun . And , uh , you know , occasionally when she was drinking , she would just make these threats . You know , she was gon na take chase away . She was gon na use the gun on me . She was gon na use the gun on herself . The thing is , the ... the gun was never loaded ... until that night . My budget used to be a real downer .
Aiden : Um ... we were on the sound that weekend . Chase was sleeping . So Meredith and I -- you know , we -- we got into it . I do nt remember what started it all . I do remember that ... the more we fought , the more she would be drinking and the angrier that made me . But , you know , she ... she would nt stop . Just kept yelling at me , you know ... and accused me of being a bad father , bad husband , bad person . Of course , the things I said to her , you know , uh ... beyond cruel . It was ugly . To say that to a woman I once loved ... she went into the bedroom ... she came out . She had a gun , you know . She started saying she was-- she was gon na kill herself . This is something she had said before to me , you know , and , uh ... but this time she started loading it in front of me . So I had to believe her . She raised the gun to her head ... and I panicked , you know . I - I - I did nt know what to do . I just said ... do nt . You ll wake chase . That s what I said . She had a gun to her head , and I said , do nt do it . You ll wake our son . But the thing is ... it stopped her . It stopped her ... cause she ... [ Exhales deeply ] She loved our son . She did . She did , but she-- she -- she hated me more ... because she put the gun back up to her head . Now , this time , I jumped up to grab the gun , but she pulled back . She pulled the trigger . She shot herself .
Brady : I think the key to this whole thing is to take it one step at a time .
Theresa : Right .
Brady : Although ... if you re pregnant , I assume you know marriage is not an option .
Theresa : Trust me , I m still enough of a catholic to promise you this -- no abortion .
Brady : If you tried , I d fight you .
Theresa : So ... you want a child ?
Brady : Yeah . I always have .
Theresa : Just not like this , right ?
Daniel : Mom ... I know Jennifer means the world to you . And you have always been rooting for us to make a go of it .
Maggie : Oh .
Daniel : But before she went down to see her mom for a few weeks , we had a talk . And we were both very frank , open , brutally honest . And I ll have to admit , it is hard to accept . And I know it s gon na be hard for you to accept too , but we decided ... it s -- it s over .
Maggie : Daniel , no . Come on , now , you ca nt give up . You got to give it a try .
Daniel : I m sorry .
Maggie : Oh , honey , I m sorry too . I m sorry too .
Paige : What s wrong ?
JJ : Nothing , nothing . I just , uh -- I just got to check this real quick , and I might have to make a call , but I ll be right back .
Paige : Well , ca nt you just--
Paige : Uh , I ll get it .
Brady : Being a father is something I ve thought about a lot . I love kids . [ Chuckles ] It s just -- the timing has never been , uh ...
Theresa : Do nt even think about trying to take my baby away from me .
Brady : I would nt do that . Listen , I would never do that , okay ? If you are pregnant , we will find a way . We will figure out a way to raise this child . But we ll do it together .
Daniel : I ll tell you , one of the things I will not regret , ever ... knowing Jennifer ... loving her . I mean , I think anyone who s lucky enough to have Jennifer Horton in their life ... is better for it .
Maggie : I agree .
Daniel : Right ?
Maggie : Yeah .
Daniel : And now I just-- I have got to focus on what I do have , what blessings I do have . I have -- I got Melanie . I have you .
Maggie : [ Chuckles ]
Daniel : And I got that little man . I got my man ... Parker . I - I got a family .
Maggie : Oh .
Daniel : Right ?
Maggie : Yes , you bet you do .
Daniel : Oh , and I would nt trade it for anything . Mm - mm .
Maggie : Sounds like you re gon na be all right .
Daniel : Eventually , yeah . [ Chuckles ] Yeah .
Maggie : [ Chuckles ] Daniel ?
Daniel : Hmm ?
Maggie : What is that ? That , next to the toy ?
Daniel : Oh .
Maggie : I do nt think I ve ever seen you with a money clip .
Daniel : No , no , that s JJ s . He borrowed my coat , and it was in the pocket .
Maggie : Oh .
Daniel : Probably-- well , I guess I should probably drop by the house and ... and give it to him .
JJ : Is there somebody at the door ?
Eve : Hello , uh , JJ .
JJ : Hello , ms . Larson .
Eve : I , uh , want to talk to your mom . Is she around ?
JJ : No . Uh , she , uh -- she s visiting her mom , but , uh ... she probably wo nt be back for , like , a week or so .
Eve : Oh , well , that s too bad , cause I just wanted to , you know , talk to her about something , but ...
Paige : You came all the way over here just to talk to her ?
Eve : No , actually , I did nt . That stupid lawyer sent her royalty check to us by mistake , so ... here , I ve got it right here . I wanted to give it to her in person , but will you make sure that she gets it ?
JJ : Sure .
Eve : Okay . Great . Hey .
Paige : Huh ?
Eve : Why did you casually blow off your internship today , hmm ? Paige , I asked you a question , sweetheart .
Paige : This has got to be , like , fate .
Eve : Excuse me ?
Paige : It is ! It was meant to be ! Mom , remember how I said I wanted us to have a fresh start ? Well , I was actually just about to tell JJ how good things were , you know , with you and me . And I want it to be that way for all of us .
Eve : Well , honey , that s -- that s very -- that s a really wonderful goal . But it s actually a little too idealistic , actually , because--
Paige : No , mom , I m serious . It can work , I mean , if we try , if we make an effort . I really think the problem is , is you and JJ just have nt gotten to know each other well enough . Here , okay ... I think we should all go out and talk it through . It can work . I know it can . Please ?
Aiden : Thank God chase was a heavy sleeper . Guess he had to be , you know . I mean , every time he went to bed , Meredith and I would start with the screaming and the yelling and ... although , this time , he woke up ... from the sirens . He was crying , you know , as ... as if he already knew .
Hope : Did he see her ? Did he see his mom ?
Aiden : No . No , when the emergency crews got there , I ... was holding him . It s all I could do , is just hold him . Finally , my sister got there . She ... she took him away , so then the police could interview me and ... deal with Meredith s body . They let me go the next morning . There were no -- no charges ... although ...
Hope : Though , what ?
Aiden : [ Sighs ] Well , when the police first got there , things looked pretty bad for me . Um ... look , I m an attorney . I know exactly what not to do . I did nt protect myself ... and I should have ... for chase s sake , you know , but I - I - I could nt help myself . You know , yeah ... I tried stopping the bleeding . Then I quickly realized it was hopeless , you know . So I ... I was holding Meredith , and I took the gun from her hand , and I put it down . Now my prints were all over it . [ Chuckles ] But I just kept thinking-- you know , I just kept thinking that I didnt--
Hope : You did nt want her to die alone .
Aiden : You know , she ... she looked up at me ... and her last words to me , to anyone ... I hate you . [ Scoffs ] I just kept holding her and ... saw the light go out . Just sitting there , thinking ... this is what it s come to . You know , it s ... it s sad . I feel like part of me died too .
Ben : I m going to make you a promise . I promise you that I am not going to let anyone or anything ruin this for us .
Paige : Okay , the main thing is we need to put everything that s happened in the past and leave it there , right ?
Eve : Absolutely .
JJ : Definitely .
Paige : Okay , see , we already agree on one thing . This is so good ! We re gon na find a way to-- oh !
Eve : Oh , honey ! Oh , my gosh , did it burn you ?
Paige : It s all over my blouse . I m such a klutz .
Eve : Well , you know what ? Take this into the bathroom and wet it with some cold water and just sponge it out , and then I ll take care of it when we get home , okay , sweetheart ?
Paige : I ll be right back . Actually , mom , can you come with me ? I want to make sure I do it right .
Eve : Oh , uh , sure . Sure , sure , sure . Come on .
JJ : Eve s not going to say anything . I m not going to say anything . It ll be fine .
Daniel : Hey . Just the guy I was looking for .
Aiden : Hope , you , uh ... you are the only person I ve ever talked to about what happened those last few minutes . Aside from the police , you re about the only person I ve ever talked to about any of it .
Hope : It s a terribly painful memory to live with .
Aiden : It is ... mostly because my son , you know . Because Meredith and I-- we just would nt , or we could nt , stop the constant battles ... it cost chase his mother .
Hope : How much does chase remember about that night ?
Aiden : Oh ... very little . We moved a couple times , so there was no one around to tell him .
Hope : Has he asked any questions ?
Aiden : No . Never . I m not sure if it s because he does nt know the right questions to ask or ... he knows that the answers would be too hard for me to give . Maybe he s the brave one , you know . Maybe he s the one protecting me all these years . He s such a ... he s such a good boy , you know . I just do nt know how I could let him down like that , you know . I m not gon na let that happen . [ Sobbing ]
Brady : You know , Daniel and Chloe are doing a pretty good job with Parker . You know , we could use what they do as a guide .
Theresa : Yeah , but Parker s not in school yet .
Brady : Right , I know , just nursery school , but ... you re right -- things are still flexible . Once he hits kindergarten , there has to be one primary parent .
Theresa : Yeah , and there s the whole problem with work too .
Brady : Yeah , but I know-- I mean , I know Maggie and Victor , they ll ...
Theresa : The whole free world s going to be in this kid s life , right ?
Brady : Do nt worry about that . I wo nt let anybody push you out , Theresa , okay ? We ll do this as a team .
Theresa : Here s Kayla . So , uh ... how far along am I ?
Kayla : Theresa , maybe we should talk one - on - one .
Theresa : No way . No . Brady and I are together on this all the way . We re not going to keep any secrets about our child .
Kayla : There is no child .
Theresa : What ?
Kayla : You re not pregnant .
Daniel : You , uh -- you with someone ?
JJ : Paige and her mom .
Daniel : And her mom ?
JJ : Yeah .
Daniel : Yeah , you think that s a good thing ?
JJ : I do nt know . Paige wanted to do it . She thinks that we can , like , start over and , you know , be friends or something .
Daniel : Well , good luck with that . Well , in case they stick you with the bill , I brought you a little something . When you were wearing my coat last night , you left this in the pocket .
Aiden : Look , I , uh-- I should ve told you about all this when we first started getting serious . And I mean this , okay ? If you want to walk away and not look back , I will not blame you .
Hope : No . I m not going anywhere .
Aiden : Thank you . Thank you for being someone I can trust ... to listen , care . For so long , it s felt like life has been pressing in on me , like I just could nt breathe . [ Sighs ] Now I can . Now I can . I love you , Hope . I want to be with you ... now .

Victor : Sweetheart . Sweetheart . Your mother and I will take care of you now , okay ?
Michael : It s a long and ugly list . Kevin s fixation with TagNGrab , his anger at Adam --
Chloe : Adam s Adam . There s nothing that we can do to convince Adam to not pull his money out of the company . But this is not just about a business for Kevin . This is his entire self - worth . Forget Crimson Lights . Forget his amazing wife and his adorable stepdaughter . I - it s like his entire ego is wrapped up in one website .
Michael : [ Sighs ] You have to be patient with him . Kevin thought he finally hit the jackpot . Give up a dream like that -- it s a lot to handle all at once .
Chloe : But he s not handling it .
Michael : All right . What can I do , besides get $ 15 million for him . What ?
Chloe : [ Laughs ]
Kevin : [ Clears throat ] Let s play a round of Guess the conversation . Boy , that Kevin . Such a disappointment .
Michael : Failure was not the topic of conversation , Kevin .
Kevin : But you were talking about me , yes ?
Michael : Actually , we were discussing our concern for you .
Kevin : I m fine . I need to go check on ... something that needs to be checked on .
Chloe : Hey , I , uh , already checked on that thing .
Kevin : Maybe this is something else .
Chloe : How about we just love you ? Can you focus on that ?
Michael : We missed you at dinner today . Gloria s worried about you . Why would you skip Thanksgiving dinner with the family ? You know how she feels about that .
Kevin : Right . Should I have just shown up , tugged on the wishbone ? Ooh , I wish I had $ 15 million to save my future !
Chloe : Our future . [ Clears throat ]
Kevin : Look , I m sorry if I ruined anybody s Thanksgiving . I just ... this business is the only thing on my brain , and I just thought it would best if I stayed away .
Michael : Well ... it s not too late . I m going home right now to Lauren and Fenmore , and I m gon na have pie . I m gon na have a lot of pie . Pecan and/or pumpkin . And we would love it if both of you would come .
Chloe : Yeah . Babe , pecan pie .
Kevin : Um ... I m just not up for it .
Chloe : It s just pecan pie . You know what ? Just , uh , tell Lauren thank you , and we ll see you guys soon .
Kevin : Can you explain something to me ? Whenever ... the latest purse or handbag comes out , if you do nt get it in the first week , you freak out . Our business has just caved in . You have not blinked an eye . Did you ever care about this company at all ?
Paul : [ Sighs ]
Nina : Hey .
Paul : Hi . Thanks for coming .
Nina : Yeah , well , it seemed like the mature thing to do . Thought I d give it a try .
Paul : Can I get you something to drink or ...
Nina : No , thank you .
Paul : Okay . Then I guess I ll get right to it . What happened between Chris and me ... I want you to know that you are the last person that I would ever want to hurt .
Nina : [ Sighs ] I know that . I do . And so ... [ Sighs ] For you to hurt me anyway ... you must have had feelings that were hard to fight . Something more than you feel for me .
Paul : Nina .
Nina : No , Paul . We do nt have to talk about this anymore , okay ? It s over . I mean ... we are over .
Paul : It s not that simple .
Nina : Yes , it is . I m going to L.A. today for good .
Paul : [ Sighs ]
Nikki : I have the teakettle on . You want something to eat ? Okay . Maybe later .
Victor : Proud of you , Son . You said you d bring your sister home , and you did .
Nikki : You want to take a bath ? Want to just crawl into bed ?
Victoria : I d like to see Johnny . Is he sleeping ?
Nikki : He is , but his dreams will be sweeter now that his mommy s home . Come on . We ll go see him .
Victor : You can pack your things and get out , all right ? I do nt ever want to see you near my daughter again .
Paul : You re leaving Genoa City ?
Nina : My work is in L.A. My life is there . Chance is in D.C. Ronan -- [ Chuckles ] There s nothing to keep me here anymore .
Paul : You know , when I was out on bail , I used to imagine the moment that the charges were dropped or if I was found not guilty . In every vision , you were there .
Nina : You imagined it . I prayed for it . Please , God , I d give anything to have Paul free . I just -- I did nt know I d have to give up you .
Paul : I had no idea . I never imagined things with Chris would ...
Nina : I just thought if Cricket was gon na revisit the past , it would have been with Danny .
Paul : You know , for months , I did nt even know that I would have a future . And now ... Nina , I m -- I m just finding my way . I just wish that ...
Nina : We just had our great , big wish come true . The entire world knows that you re innocent . [ Voice breaking ] I do nt think we get to ask for more than that . [ Sniffles ]
Paul : Sorry .
Christine : Could you just wait a minute , please ?
Nina : No more apologies , okay ?
Paul : [ Sighs ]
Chloe : How can you say that I do nt care ? Did you not just see me here , talking with your brother ? We are crushed about the company . We re worried about you .
Kevin : Because I m not doing a happy dance about Adam backing out ? I m allowed to have my emotions .
Chloe : Yeah , and I m allowed to love and care for you .
Tucker : Hey , Kevin , Chloe . Glad I ran into you . Saves me a phone call .
Kevin : What s up ?
Tucker : Tagngrab .
Kevin : Yeah ? Are you looking to invest ?
Tucker : I am . Adam offered me his share .
Chloe : Did you say yes ?
Tucker : I said yes .
Kevin : Oh ! [ Gasping ] Oh , this is a Thanksgiving miracle ! This is so great ! You are not gon na regret this ! Oh , my gosh ! [ Sighs ]
Tucker : Have you given the contract a good read ?
Chloe : Well , we know that Adam did himself all sorts of favors and left us high and dry .
Kevin : Well , not so high and dry , now that you and your wallet are here making it rain .
Tucker : Hold on a second . You might still find yourselves a little bit parched . There s a loophole in the deal . If the main investor , Adam , sells his share , and if the buyer so desires , you and Chloe can be bought out for a nominal fee . Pennies on the dollar . Turns out I so desire .
Kyle : And Abby has got shoes everywhere . And you say anything about them , you get , Oh , but they re so cute . And my feet are so small . They do nt take up any space .
Jack : Tell me about your aunts .
Kyle : Ashley s great . We see Traci and Steve all the time . East - coast Abbotts are all right .
Jack : Great . My phone call with them was much too short . I - I miss them all .
Kyle : Yeah , I know . Those short phone calls ... that must be the reason why you could nt tell us about your surgery till after the fact .
Jack : This family has had enough drama . We do nt need to raise a hue and cry over a simple medical procedure . I m good as new .
Kyle : You re worried about drama ? Not -- I do nt know -- maybe the deafening silence ? Or , what , maybe you figured we could nt come rushing to your hospital bedside ?
Jack : It does nt matter now . It s all over .
Kyle : You fired Ashley as Jabot s C.E.O. Abby thinks your Newman takeover put Victor in the hospital . Hey , you have nt done anything to Traci yet . Maybe you better step up your game on that one .
Jack : I have a plan for Newman , just as I ve always had a plan for Jabot . I would think my family would support that .
Kyle : Yeah , sure . We ll set up a whole cheering section for you . Save a seat for Billy . Oh , wait . You fired him , too . Dad , your cheering section is getting a little bit thin .
Billy : Uh , this is my house . Upstairs is my wife . This is the one place you do nt get to throw your weight around with me .
Nicholas : Vic is home , and she s safe . There s no more guys with guns . I m gon na go home and see my kids . But let me say this , Dad . We busted in that door in Miami , and Billy was right there with me . He did nt care what was on the other side . He would have given his life for Victoria , and that s got to mean something . It certainly means something to me .
Victor : You can follow him now , okay ?
Billy : My mistake was a long time ago . It was before Hong Kong , before I knew your daughter was gon na be my wife . I screwed up . I know it . It came back to bite me .
Victor : No , Billy Boy . It came back to bite Victoria . You re the one who should have had a gun to his head .
Billy : I would have done anything to trade places with her . I would have spent a year in that hole so she would nt have to spend a second . I would have given anything to get her home safe .
Victor : Do you know how furious I am with you ? You re responsible for Victoria being kidnapped . Your stupidity , your arrogance . You thought you d handle it on your own . You could nt , could you , now ? You stay away from my daughter . Or else I ll let her know that you knew all along about my whereabouts in Los Angeles . Then she ll know you for the kind of fellow you are .
Kevin : The contract can not say that !
Tucker : I m sorry , man . It s all there . They call it Fine print , but it s not really fine . Everything s there , out in the open .
Chloe : [ Sighs ] You do nt understand . That company is our life .
Tucker : No , it s a business .
Kevin : Look , if TagNGrab is the heart , we are the blood .
Chloe : Yeah , I mean , if the company is worth anything , it s because of who we are .
Kevin : Yeah , why do you even want to invest if you do nt want what we bring to the table ?
Tucker : I already have people with your skills at a multinational level . Now , listen . You will be compensated in accordance with the contract .
Chloe : You said Nominal . How nominal ?
Kevin : [ Scoffs ] That is not nominal ! That s nothing !
Tucker : You re young . You re smart . You ll bounce back . Do nt let this get you down .
Kevin : [ Breathing heavily ]
Paul : [ Sighs ]
Christine : Nina s hurt , but she loves you , so just give her a little time and space .
Paul : She ll have both . She s moving back to L.A.
Christine : Follow her .
Paul : I ca nt . I meant what I said before . My feelings for you are real , Chris . So I follow Nina , and then what ? She does nt deserve a guy who wants to be with someone else .
Christine : This would be a time when she would call me , and I would help her get through this . But ... she s not gon na call me this time .
Paul : [ Sighs ] It was selfish for me to kiss you .
Christine : But I kissed you back . Because what you re feeling , I m feeling , too . Do nt you see it ? Ca nt you feel it ? I m falling back in love with you , too .
Nicholas : Summer ? Faith ? Noah ? Who wants some turkey sandwiches ? I do . Hey ! Took Faith for post - turkey froyo . Back soon . Noah . Seriously ? [ Sighs ]
Avery : Hello , Mr. Newman . How was your impromptu travel ?
Nicholas : Short trip . Long story .
Avery : Well , I have unlimited minutes . Start talking .
Nicholas : How about in person ?
Billy : Victoria just got home . She s still traumatized . She s still shivering . And you want to tell her that now ?
Victor : Billy , you have caused my daughter nothing but sadness and sorrow and unhappiness . And a stolen child and a pregnant mistress .
Billy : Yeah , who you sent after me .
Victor : And then you re responsible for her kidnapping . But I m partly guilty . Because I failed to tell her that you knew of my whereabouts in Los Angeles all along . Had I told her , she would have left you then . None of this nonsense in Miami would have happened . Now , you have a choice . You leave her now , or I make sure that she leaves you .
Billy : You want some time with your daughter ? Take it . Why do nt you use that time to help her rest ? I m gon na go now , but I will be back .
Victor : You will be back to pack your things . Now get going , Son .
Billy : You re not saving her , you know . You re hoarding her . Newman got ripped from your hands , and now you re just gathering all your possessions around you . Victoria s just another thing that you think you own .
Victor : Get out .
Billy : Heh .
Victor : How are you feeling now , Sweetheart ?
Victoria : Johnny is just -- he s so beautiful . His little face . Where s Billy ?
Nikki : Yes , where could he have gone ?
Kevin : Practically nothing ! All that time and effort and work -- how can we have nothing ? !
Chloe : We do nt have nothing . We do nt . We have exactly what we started off with . We have your brain . We have my style . And -- and we just -- we just move on .
Kevin : Tagngrab was brilliant ! Otherwise , Tucker McCall would nt want it bad enough to cut us out , Chloe . That was our shot !
Chloe : Okay , it was one shot . It s not the only shot . Okay ? I do nt know what we do . I guess ... [ Sighs ] I guess we ll just sit on the sofa . We ll -- I do nt know -- order some takeout , curse the Gods , and then we just start over .
Kevin : What are you talking about ? We did nt just get dumped before prom night . This is our life !
Chloe : I know . And I care as much as you do .
Kevin : Obviously you do not . Because you do nt look upset . You do nt even look surprised .
Paul : You feel the same way . Wow . There s even more proof to feel like a jerk . Cause all I feel like doing now is smiling .
Christine : [ Chuckles ] But our feelings -- you know , there are no guarantees . We ca nt go back all those years ago . We were so different . Besides , the past let us down . So I think we just need to ... start over .
Paul : You know , honestly , I thought Nina and I had a future , and ... you know , you and Danny was nt that long ago .
Christine : I know . And there are gon na be some sad and hurt feelings . But in this moment ... you deserve to smile if you want to smile .
Victor : You should eat something or maybe have some tea .
Victoria : No . I ll just -- I ll eat when I m hungry , okay ?
Nikki : We just want to help you get through this , Honey , no matter what .
Victoria : Where s Billy ?
Victor : He , uh -- he left .
Victoria : Why ?
Victor : Sweetheart , he knows he failed you . And for the first time , he s actually ashamed . He must never put you in harm s way again .
Victoria : [ Sighs ] I m , um -- I m just really tired right now . Do you two mind -- ?
Nikki : Honey , let me take you back upstairs .
Victor : Mom and I will wait for you down here , okay ?
Victoria : I would really just like to be alone right now .
Victor : You mean you do nt want us to be here just --
Victoria : No , I do nt . You understand , right , Mom ? I just want to be alone .
Jack : Billy ! Hey , what a nice surprise . Can I fix you some leftovers ?
Billy : Jack , you remember your clever plan -- fake me and Victoria out ... send her on a lark to Miami ?
Jack : L - listen , I ve been trying to call you , and I ... I think we need to talk . I d love to have a good conversation with you about this -- you and Victoria .
Billy : I do nt think Victoria s gon na be up to chatting with you ... since your little trick got her kidnapped and almost killed . Eddie s lying face - down in his own blood in one room . Victoria s in the other . And the entire time , I m thinking I d just lost the woman that I ca nt live without .
Jack : The authorities eventually showed up and arrested this ...
Billy : Max ? Yeah , they did . But only after he had Eddie terrorize my wife at gunpoint . And then she had the added bonus of seeing him get gunned down right in front of her . Jack , Brother , you hit the jackpot .
Jack : Whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa . I hate that Victoria was in danger . But let s be straight about this . This is about your screw - ups , your gambling . I bailed you out in a big way before you went off to Hong Kong . I d have covered this debt , too , if I d known anything about it . Victoria going to Miami was all about you giving her confidential information so she could steal Newman back from me .
Billy : You set me up .
Jack : I gave you a chance to prove your loyalty . You screwed it up .
Billy : I screwed it up . You know , it was nt enough for you to fire me . My wife had to get caught in the fallout , and probably my marriage , too , Jack .
Jack : I feel for Victoria . She s been through a lot , and obviously the two of you are gon na go through a great deal more , and I will be there for you in any way that I can . But I ca nt do that if you continue to pretend that this is somehow my fault .
Billy : Pretend ? You think I m pretending I m not --
Jack : Billy , do nt --
Kyle : Whoa ! Whoa ! Happy Thanksgiving . Hide the carving knife . What is all this about ?
Jack : Everything s just fine . Right , Billy ?
Billy : Heads up , Buddy . Your dad has nt thrown you under the Newman Enterprises bus yet . But he will . Cause it s a known fact that you are nt a real Abbott until you have tire marks all over your face . Right , Jack ?
Chloe : Look , I understand that you re upset and you are angry and you are frustrated , but you do not go off on me .
Kevin : Maybe you expected this was gon na happen all along , so to you it s not a big deal .
Chloe : Okay . We got through the Jana nightmare . We got through Angelina . Are we really gon na fight over a business ?
Kevin : This is our future . Why does nt that register with you ?
Chloe : I m sorry . Do you not recall that I m the one who came up with TagNGrab ? So do nt you act like you re the only person here who had their dream crushed .
Kevin : And why did that happen ? Because of Adam . Because he took our company and he put it through a meat grinder . Because you handed it to him ! Why ? Why ? Because you never trusted me to come up with the money that we needed .
Chloe : No , because we needed an investor , and I found one , and it worked . It worked for a while .
Kevin : No ! No ! It never worked ! He was a smug bastard the entire time because he knew ! He knew he could just walk away and leave us with nothing ! [ Breathing heavily ] You had to have all the answers , though . You had to fix everything . You never had faith in me . You never thought I could be the one to come up with a solution to the problem , did you ?
Chloe : Well , you never did , did you ?
Kevin : [ Gasps ] Wow .
Chloe : Wait . Kevin , wait . I did nt -- wait . [ Sighs ]
Avery : Hi . Come in . Come in . You just missed Summer and Faith .
Nicholas : What are you talking about ?
Avery : They had dinner here .
Nicholas : Really ?
Avery : Mm - hmm . Your girls can really pack in the turkey . Actually , Faith was all about the stuffing .
Nicholas : Yeah , I know . Um , how did all that happen ?
Avery : Well , Summer worked me like a champ for an invitation . Faith was just along for the ride .
Nicholas : Well , I wish I was here for them , but I m glad they got a nice , normal meal with you . Although I can think of somebody who probably was nt too pleased about that .
Avery : Uh , yeah . Listen , I wanted to invite Phyllis , but Summer ...
Nicholas : Insisted her teenage head would explode ?
Avery : Something along those lines .
Nicholas : Sorry she put you in that position .
Avery : What , ticking off Phyllis ? I have put myself in that position often .
Nicholas : Yeah , well , you did nt deserve that . I should have been here .
Avery : Where were you ? What s all the mystery ?
Nicholas : Strange day . And by strange , I mean a little insane and terrifying .
Avery : You re scaring me .
Nicholas : I scared myself . Victoria was kidnapped . Billy and I just brought her home from Miami .
Avery : Oh , my God . Is she all right ? So guns and gambling , and you rush right into the situation , not knowing if you would walk out .
Nicholas : Victoria s my sister . I do nt care what the dangers were . I had to get to her .
Avery : Well , thank you for telling me . You Newmans are famous for keeping secrets .
Nicholas : Sorry . [ Chuckles ] Guess I m just coming down from the adrenaline .
Avery : Well , I m glad you re all in one piece . And I m glad you re here .
Nicholas : You know , Avery , I ve had so many close calls in my life ... with the people I care about . They ve been in danger and vulnerable . And it s always worked out . But then later , I think about ... the time it did nt work out ... with Cassie . Life is so fragile . You got to make every second count .
Nikki : We had to leave . Victoria needed her space . We had to give it to her .
Victor : Well , to be honest with you , I wanted to stay .
Nikki : Yes , to chase Billy off if he dared to return . How did you get him to leave , anyway ?
Victor : Sweetheart , he has been nothing but problems for Victoria . She knows it . She s just loathe to admit it .
Nikki : Well , he s not gon na stay away . And that s his home . That s his wife . He has many failings , yes , but he does love Victoria .
Victor : I do nt think he knows the first thing about love .
Nikki : Victor , they re not children .
Victor : Sweetheart , he s not an adult . Whatever Victoria thinks about him , it ai nt love . My mistake was to allow him back into her life . I should nt have done that . I ll never do it again .
Nikki : I see . Because you can control hearts and minds . Victor , how many people have warned me to stay away from you ? I mean , the love that we have has been called twisted . It s been called addictive , even abusive .
Victor : I do nt give a damn what anyone thinks .
Nikki : Exactly . Because we have lived through it . We know how it feels . And Billy -- even though I m very upset with him -- only he and Victoria know how they feel . If she wants to leave him , she s going to leave him . If she wants to stay with him , she s going to . We just need to stand back and watch .
Victoria : [ Gasps ]
Billy : Hey , hey , hey .
Victoria : Get away ! Get away ! Get away !
Billy : It s me . It s me . It s me . You re safe .
Victoria : Get away !
Billy : You re safe . Honey , you re safe . You re safe . Nobody can hurt you . I m not gon na let anybody hurt you .
Victoria : [ Panting ]
Paul : Well , that s a new sensation -- not surviving on fear , anxiety , panic . I m not sure what I should do next .
Christine : Maybe something wild , like watch a movie .
Paul : Yeah . Or make plans for next month , knowing I can keep them . [ Chuckles ]
Christine : I would like to buy some clothing that s not meant for court .
Paul : Yeah . Wow . Look who s walking on the wild side .
Christine : No , really . I am tired of courtrooms and cases and death and fear .
Paul : Being in jail , being out on bail , waiting for the charge waiting for the trial , waiting for the tape ... I mean , it really did kill part of me .
Christine : What do you mean ?
Paul : I do nt know that I can do it anymore . Crime and evidence and guilty and not guilty . Wears you down . I think I need a change .
Kevin : Adam ! Open up ! You want to screw me over , you want to ruin my company , at least have the guts to look me in the eye !
Jack : How about a piece of pie ? I think Mrs. Martinez made a dozen .
Kyle : So , Billy s still upset about being fired ?
Jack : Billy is blowing off steam . I can handle it . Even if it s a little excessive right now .
Kyle : Or maybe it s an appropriate response to you always putting your business before your family .
Jack : What I do , Kyle , I do for my family .
Kyle : You do notice nobody s buying that , right ?
Jack : They are wrong .
Kyle : Dad , is it worth losing actual people who love you just so you can hang on to all this stuff you only think you want ?
Avery : You re right . This does matter .
Nicholas : Yeah , and we keep doing this dance . I come to you . You back off . You come to me , and then I back off .
Avery : Well , we do this because we do nt want to hurt anyone .
Nicholas : No one wants to get hurt . This is a good thing .
Avery : [ Sighs ] Oh , this is so ... good . I ca nt imagine anyone getting hurt from this .
Nicholas : This might be a good thing .
Avery : So , what do we do ?
Nicholas : I say that I want to make every second of my life matter . I want to spend them with you .
Victor : How can you defend Billy Abbott when he almost got our daughter killed ?
Nikki : Victor , I am just reminding you that Victoria is a grown woman , and her marriage is her own business .
Victor : No , it s not . Not in this case .
Nikki : Did nt you just say you do nt give a damn what anybody else thinks about our relationship ?
Victor : There s a difference .
Nikki : Just because she s your daughter does nt mean that you can control her .
Victor : Listen to me . I know ... that Billy Abbott knew that I was in Los Angeles . He failed to tell Victoria . She kept on thinking I was missing .
Billy : This is all my fault . Everything they re saying -- blaming me -- it s true . If that guy would have hurt you , I ... I need you to forgive me . Can you forgive me ?
Kevin : I need $ 10,000 , or I m gon na lose my house .
Devon : I hope you re not worried that I m here to try and take your job or something .
Cane : I m not worried about it .
Phyllis : Spying on the boss , Adam ?

Greenlee : Kendall , it s me , Greenlee . Forget Erica , call me .
Tad : You were texting while driving ? Do you have any idea how dangerous that is ?
Colby : Yes , everyone knows that . That s why I was the one sending the text message to Bailey . Damon was just dictating what I was typing .
Tad : Is this true ?
Colby : You think I m lying ?
Liza : Colby , stop protecting him . He s not worth it .
Jesse : We re gon na check the cell phone for prints . And if yours are nt there , you are both in a world of trouble .
Colby : Whatever . I sent the message .
Liza : Colby , do not throw your life away . Tell Jesse the truth .
Colby : I am .
Liza : No , you re not .
Damon : Lay off Colby . I was texting . I -- I asked Bailey to send me a picture of Stuart . It was all my fault .
Tad : Now what ?
Jesse : Well , it s not good . Reckless driving . Brooke is injured , this one s on probation .
Angie : Listen , this will have to wait . Damon needs surgery .
Adam : Hey , that -- that maniac caused Brooke s accident , and now your mother s holding his hand . Brooke should be the priority , not Damon .
Frankie : We re doing everything we can for her , Adam . Dr. Mackey s an excellent surgeon .
Adam : Yeah . Let me know of any news .
Frankie : Yeah , I will .
Annie : So you think if I just speak from the heart , everything else will fall into place ?
J.R. : Yeah , yeah . That way , it s like talking to friends instead of giving a speech . It ll be a totally different vibe .
Annie : Yeah . I can -- I can do this .
J.R. : Yeah , you can . Now all you have to do is pick out a dress . Are you calling Lacey s to bring over more dresses ?
Annie : Hey , Adam , it s me . J.R. has been helping me with my speech , and as long as I have you there next to me , I will be able to stand in front of Congress and tell them all about donating my bone marrow . A question for you , though . I was wondering , should we take the limo or the private jet ?
Adam : Whichever you prefer . I m not going .
Annie : Adam , what do you mean , you re not coming ? You -- you have to . I ca nt do this alone .
Adam : You ll have no choice . Something happened at the hospital .
Annie : Oh , Adam , the board will survive without you . You need a break . A few days in D.C. would be fun . You know -- you know , we never had our honeymoon . We could extend the trip a few days and go to the Caribbean or -- Adam , we need this .
Adam : Sorry . I ca nt go . We ll talk later .
Annie : Bye .
J.R. : Dad s not going ?
Annie : I do nt know what s happening with us .
Colby : Any news on Brooke ?
Adam : No . I never should have blasted you the way I did . Seeing you in the hospital , knowing I was helpless to protect you , I --
Colby : I m ok , Dad . And Brooke will be , too .
Adam : Ok .
Frankie : Guys , uh , we confirmed it . Brooke has a ruptured spleen . The surgeon s removing it right now .
Adam : Will she be all right ?
Frankie : Well , we do nt expect any complications , but there s a lot of internal bleeding .
Tad : I m stuck . I do nt know whether to wring the kid s neck or hug him . I just found him . I do nt want to lose my son all over again .
Jesse : You re not gon na lose him , Tad . He s in there right now with the best that there is .
Tad : I m not talking about the surgery .
Jesse : We do nt have to do this right now .
Tad : Yeah , babe , we do , we do .
Jesse : Well , he s gon na have to check in with his probation officer --
Tad : He ca nt . He ca nt . I m sorry , he ca nt .
Jesse : Tad --
Tad : It s a disaster , ok ? He can not do time .
Jesse : This is out of my hands .
Tad : What are you talking about ? You re the chief --
Jesse : Tad , if -- all right , all right , you know what ? I will call his probation officer , Shelton , try to feel him out . But I can not defend this , Tad . Brooke had to be cut out of a car because Damon did nt take two seconds to pull over .
Tad : Ok . She s got to be ok . She -- she s just got to be . I mean , what am I gon na tell Jamie ? That his long - lost brother killed his mom ?
Jesse : You tell Jamie that his mother is gon na be just fine .
Tad : God , I hope so .
Jesse : She s got a lot of living ahead of her , Tad . You need to hold on to that , ok ?
Tad : Oh , yeah . Just tell Angela to talk to me after Brooke comes out of surgery .
Jesse : Of course .
Tad : I understand . I m sorry . Uh , but just tell me what the probation officer says , ok ?
Jesse : It s tough , but you hang in there , ok ?
Tad : Yeah .
Ryan : Hey . How is he ? How s Damon ?
Tad : He s not good .
Colby : I m -- I m gon na get some water . Do you want anything ? Why are you still here ?
Liza : And why are you covering up for Damon ? You could have gone to jail for a guy that almost killed you and Brooke !
Colby : Mom , I had to protect him !
Liza : Protect him ? Right . Your friend swerves into oncoming traffic for a text message .
Colby : No , Mom , he really misses Stuart .
Liza : Oh , honey , we all miss Stuart . That does nt mean that you get in a car and you start driving like some crazy man endangering the lives of everyone ! You know Brooke is in there fighting for her life , because he could nt put down his phone !
Colby : He is just as upset as everyone !
Liza : Ok , all right . All right , honey , listen , let me take you home , ok ?
Colby : No . I -- I m gon na stay here . I want Damon to know he has someone in his corner when he gets out of surgery .
Liza : He s got Tad , ok ? He s got Tad . You ve been through enough . Besides , Brooke and Damon , they need their rest , too .
Colby : No . No , no . I m -- I m gon na stay here , ok ?
Liza : I do nt understand why you do nt let me help you . Why ?
Colby : Well , if you really want to help , be Damon s attorney .
Liza : Oh .
Colby : Help him -- help him with whatever comes now , Mom .
Liza : Oh , honey , I have helped him . I have done everything I possibly could for him . What , he assaults a coworker , I get the complaint dropped . He -- he breaks into four homes and ConFusion , I get him probation . Perhaps if I did nt help him , Brooke would nt be in there fighting for her life . What is it gon na take for you to stay away from him ?
Colby : Maybe I should just stay away from you !
Tad : You ok ?
Liza : No . Your son almost killed my daughter . And she s not listening to me , so you better . You keep your son away from Colby , because he s gon na break her heart . Right ? Like father , like son .
Tad : I know how you must feel about me , but do me a favor -- do nt take it out on my son . Colby and Damon get one another , ok ? He needs a friend , and everybody is entitled to somebody to talk to , right ?
Liza : Huh . Yeah .
Woman over P.A. : Paging Dr. Bender . Paging Dr. Bender , please .
Ryan : Hey . Whoa , whoa , you do nt look so good .
Liza : Huh . Thank you for the compliment .
Ryan : Aw , come on now . You know what I m talking about . How is Colby ?
Liza : Colby s doing fantastic as long as I m nowhere around .
Ryan : She s a teenager , Liza . She does nt mean half the stuff that she says , ok ?
Liza : Ryan , listen , no -- no offense , really , but you re -- you re the last one I want to talk to right now . I mean , I m still a little embarrassed about the other night and --
Ryan : Would you stop , please ? Come on . First of all , I was flattered , ok ? And second of all , if you ever need an ear , I m hear to listen , always . Have you talked to Tad ?
Liza : Why would I talk to Tad ? I m obviously a little bit busy with the trial of the year here .
Ryan : Are you seriously gon na go through with this ? You re seriously gon na defend David Hayward ? I mean , first of all , this is an open - and - shut case .
Liza : Not if I have anything to do with it , Ryan .
Ryan : Second of all , I m a little confused , I have be honest . I mean , Hayward s finally gon na get what he deserves , and I thought you d be doing the victory dance with the rest of us .
Liza : Well -- listen , this case is gon na cement my reputation as an attorney .
Ryan : I see .
Liza : Yeah .
Ryan : He held a gun on you , Liza .
Liza : I ve moved on . And do I need to remind you about Greenlee ? Ryan , she s only alive because David performed a miracle . Whether you want to admit that or not --
Ryan : He knew for a year that Greenlee was alive , and he chose not to say anything , and what could you possibly say to the fact that --
Liza : I d say that I ve hit my quota of arguments for the day . We re obviously not on the same page -- ok ? So let s just drop it .
Greenlee : What the hell do you think you re doing ?
Erica : Kendall does not need you harping in her ear . She s trying to repair her marriage to Zach . Why do nt you just let her do what she needs to do ?
Greenlee : Oh , do nt give me that . You want Fusion . That s why you do nt want me to talk to Kendall . You do nt want her to discover your Fusion takeover quest .
Erica : Oh , you are so ridiculous . I am protecting my daughter .
Greenlee : From me ? Her best friend ? What , is she too embarrassed to face me since she slept with Ryan ? Is that it ?
Erica : We ll talk when you re calmer . What are you doing ?
Greenlee : Getting Kendall s phone number .
Erica : Give me my phone .
Greenlee : Not until I talk to Kendall .
Erica : Kendall does nt even know you re alive . Do you have any idea what it would do to Kendall to hear your voice on the phone ? She thinks you re dead .
Greenlee : Why did nt you tell her I was alive ? We were like -- sisters . Was nt she devastated when I died ?
Erica : The timing has nt been right .
Greenlee : The timing ? That s a copout , and you know it .
Erica : No , you know nothing about what Kendall has been going through . And you ve been nothing but a spoiled brat since you came back to town . There is no way I will let you hurt Kendall the way you ve hurt Ryan .
Greenlee : Ryan betrayed me .
Erica : Oh , get over it , Greenlee . Just because Ryan had sex after he thought you died ? He did nt betray you . And he never stopped loving you . And if you still love him , then you will find a way to work things out . That s what grown - up people do .
Greenlee : Hmm . Is that what you said to my father after you started sleeping with Jeff ?
Erica : Is it no wonder that I do nt want you to speak to Kendall ? She does nt need your vicious tantrums .
Greenlee : Give me her phone number .
Erica : Call information .
Greenlee : You ca nt keep us apart forever .
Colby : I brought you some waters in case you changed your mind .
Adam : That was very considerate of you . Thank you .
Colby : Dad , um , I m -- I m really sorry . If I had known it was Brooke in the other car --
Adam : Oh . You were nt driving . Dear God , please let Brooke live .
Annie : I just wanted to let you know I was thinking about you . I love you .
Brooke s voice : Hi . You ve reached Brooke English . Please leave a message .
Annie : Damn it . You better not be together .
Brooke : Adam ! Stop it ! Stop it ! Stop it now . Stop it . What are you doing ? Put me -- stop it ! Just -- all right , I am attracted to you . Are you satisfied ?
Adam : I m afraid I m gon na lose you .
Brooke : Adam , you will never lose me .
Adam : If I could have any wish in the world that I wanted , I would wish that I could hold you in my arms like this every day for the rest of my life .
Brooke : What are you saying ?
Adam : I m not sure . I just know that I m grateful when you re around . Is that wrong ?
Brooke : Adam , you re a married man . Annie is your wife . I m just an employee .
Angie : Tad .
Tad : Hey . How s Damon ?
Angie : Listen , Dr. Wyatt was able to fuse the bones together with metal hardware . His arm s been immobilized , and with some physical therapy , he should have no problems .
Tad : Well , I guess he ll be happy to know he can play the guitar again . Just hope it s not in prison .
Angie : Me , too .
Tad : Can we see him ?
Angie : Yeah . He s up on the third floor . Room 315 .
Tad : All right , come on little one .
Colby : Thanks .
Jesse : Good news ?
Angie : Damon s going to be fine .
Jesse : And Brooke ?
Angie : Brooke is still in surgery . She should be out soon .
Jesse : Well , it s a good thing she s a strong woman .
Angie : Yeah . You know , I had promised her that we d go out for coffee one of these days . You know , I always thought that we had all the time in the world .
Jesse : You will , trust me . By next week , you ll both be yakking it up at B.J. s , ok ?
Angie : You re right . You re right . We ll make a night out of it . What about you ? Did you get in contact with Damon s probation officer ?
Jesse : Yeah . He could lose his probation . It s up to the judge .
Angie : What about the accident ?
Jesse : One count of reckless driving , two counts of reckless endangerment . It all depends on whether or not the D.A. wants to prosecute .
Angie : Jesse , ca nt you make this better for Damon ?
Jesse : Why would I ? What that boy needs is a swift kick in the ass .
Tad : Hey ! Look who it is , the Pine Valley Hospital get well committee .
Colby : [ Chuckles ] We even come bearing gifts . Look . Just in case you get crabby .
Tad : Huh ?
Colby : It s cute , right ? But you have to name him , promise ?
Damon : How s Brooke ?
Frankie : Hey , Brooke came through surgery without complications .
Adam : She s ok ?
Frankie : Yes .
Adam : I need to see her .
Liza : So Dr. Hayward is interested in an offer .
D.A. : I m surprised you d let him take a deal .
Liza : Uh - huh . Yeah . Well , he wants to get on with his life . You know . So , what do you say ?
D.A. : If Hayward pleads guilty to all the charges , we run the sentences concurrently . He ll be out in five years with good behavior .
Liza : All right , I will run that by my client .
Greenlee : Forget it . There s no way David s going to prison .
Erica : I need to see you . It s about Greenlee .
Ryan : Erica , I m not getting involved .
Erica : Ryan , I would nt ask you if it was nt urgent .
Ryan : I would help you with absolutely anything , but not with Greenlee .
Tad : You know , when it s time , I d like to be the first to sign your cast .
Colby : Yeah , and I can even get a tattoo artist to , you know , draw something edgy , give it some kick .
Tad : Just as long as the tattoo s on the cast . You have nt got a tattoo , do you ?
Colby : Oh . Sorry . [ Sighs ] Oh , uh , my dad s sending me home . I have a car waiting downstairs .
Tad : Get some sleep .
Colby : Yeah . You , too . Later .
Tad : Yeah .
Colby : Hey , I got your text message . You did nt have to come find me .

Colby : Oh , thank God . Ok . Well , I -- I , uh -- I got her something .
Adam : Ha ha ! Well , I ll let her know you gave her this . Now , you go . You get home safe .
Colby : Daddy , are nt you gon na come home , too ?
Adam : No . Brooke needs me .
Colby : But , Dad , you ca nt -- you need sleep . You ca nt stay up all night .
Adam : Well , you d be surprised how comfortable hospital chairs can be . Ha ha .
Colby : Well , Daddy , you are on the board . Use your power and get a real bed .
Adam : I want a real bed ! What do you think ?
Adam : Thank God I did nt lose you .
Brooke : Hmm --
J.R. : Damon was texting while he was driving , and he hit Brooke ?
Colby : Well , they both made it through surgery ok . They re gon na be fine .
J.R. : You could have been killed .
Annie : Adam is at the hospital holding vigil over Saint Brooke right now ?
Colby : Yes . Annie , my dad cares a lot about Brooke . He did nt want to leave her alone .
J.R. : Where are you going ?
Annie : I am just gon na go show my support .
Colby : Annie , no one wants you at the hospital . Why do nt you do something productive , like pluck your eyebrows ? Well , she wo nt be here for long . [ Sighs ] God , you should have seen Dad at the hospital , J.R.
J.R. : What were you thinking ? How could you let Damon drive your car ?
Colby : Well , Tad was getting to him . Damon got all bent , so -- so he grabbed my keys .
J.R. : And so you jumped in the car ?
Colby : Yes . It was my car . I had to be there .
J.R. : Well , that guy s a loser . You need to find someone else to hang out with .
Colby : You know , you do nt -- you do nt even know him . He -- he just needs a chance . That s why I m gon na tutor him .
J.R. : You ? A tutor ?
Colby : Yes . Shut up .
J.R. : What , is he at PVU ?
Colby : No . Um , he s getting his GED .
J.R. : You re dating someone who has nt even graduated high school ?
Colby : First of all , we re not dating . Secondly , Babe had to get her GED , so no throwing stones .
J.R. : No , I m just saying -- [ Sighs ] Never mind . It s a good thing there s a merit trust in place for you . You need some guidance on who to date .
Colby : Thanks , Dad .
J.R. : You know , calling me Dad is nt gon na change my mind . I mean , ca nt I be concerned ?
Colby : Ok , if you re gon na be all big brother protective over me , look , I know what I m doing .
J.R. : Yeah . Just like Dad thought he had a handle on Annie . We all know how that worked out . Now we have a rabid dog on our hands .
Angie : How are you feeling ?
Damon : Uh , fuzzy and achy .
Angie : Well , you re going to be up about in just a few days . Um , so in the meantime , you re my guest .
Damon : You mean I m trapped here ?
Angie : Listen , there is metal hardware holding your arm together . Now , we do nt want to risk any displacement of the bone .
Tad : Yeah , do nt worry . I ll sneak you in a couple pizzas . The food s always been lousy . You know , as the chief of staff , you might want to do something about that .
Damon : I really screwed up .
Tad : It was nt your finest hour . Next time , please leave the cell phone in your pocket .
Damon : You think I m going to jail ?
Angie : Listen , I just want you to concentrate on getting better . That s an order .
Tad : Uh --
Woman on P.A. : Dr. Sagya , extension 198 .
Tad : Angela -- I do nt think I can find the words to thank you . I mean , you ve been a Godsend throughout this entire thing with Damon .
Angie : Um , he left his transcript here .
Tad : Did you look at it ?
Angie : Yeah , I did . It s not just the girls . Listen , there are a lot of behavioral issues and academic problems . However , his teachers realized he has a brain . I want you to look at these comments . One even said that Damon is brilliant , but is lacking motivation . I mean , he is not a bad kid .
Tad : Well , I -- I know that , but I only wish I knew what was going on inside his head .
Angie : Listen , Tad , I think that he should be evaluated by a psychologist .
Tad : You want him to get comfy with a shrink ? Honey , he ca nt even talk to me . How is he gon na open up to a stranger ?
Angie : Listen , I understand how difficult it is for a boy like Damon to want to speak to a therapist . But , sweetheart , it is the only way that we re gon na have a clearer vision of what s going on in his head .
Tad : I know you re right . It s just hard to see somebody you care about go through all of this . So it s your call . How do we get him on the shrink express ?
Angie : Well , we re just gon na have to present it in the right way .
Tad : You know the good news ? The kid ca nt lose with you on his side . I sure as hell hope Jesse appreciates you , cause I know I do .
Jesse : Yeah , Jesse does appreciate you -- cause Jesse is the luckiest man on the planet to have you as his wife .
Angie : We re not gon na be able to go to the Evergreen tonight .
Jesse : Yeah . Just do nt get sucked in too deep . You also need a break , all right ?
Greenlee : David s not taking that deal . I ll make sure he gets his day in court .
D.A. : I was under the impression Dr. Hayward wanted this case resolved as soon as possible .
Greenlee : You re mistaken .
D.A. : The deal s still on the table .
Liza : I think we have another strategy . Are you willing to testify ?
Greenlee : Absolutely .
Liza : There s no way we re gon na lose .
D.A. : Well , I ll see you in court .
Liza : Mm - hmm . The jury needs to hear how David rescued and nurtured you back to health .
Greenlee : I ll make sure they hear every single detail , right down to how David spoon - fed me breakfast in bed when I woke up .
Liza : First we got to convince him to go to court , and he s pretty adamant about you not even being in the courtroom , let alone taking the witness stand .
Greenlee : Like that would stop me . David will see reason . He has no choice .
Liza : Well , I do nt know who s more stubborn , you or David .
Greenlee : That s why we re so perfect together .
Brooke : Where am I ?
Adam : In a hospital . Huh . Do you remember the car crash ? Huh ? It would take more than a fender bender to keep somebody like you down . Um , oh , I want you to be quiet now . You re fresh out of surgery . I want you to start feeling better . You re gon na be sore .
Brooke : Water ?
Adam : Ah . Yeah . There we go . Water .
Brooke : Thanks .
Adam : Yeah . Colby sent you this . She was worried about you . We were all worried about you . [ Chuckles ] I -- I do nt know how -- I never should have let you leave that park .
Brooke : Not me . The other car ?
Adam : All right , just -- just be calm , be quiet . Give yourself time to recuperate .
Brooke : I heard things -- were nt there .
Adam : Well , I , uh , meant everything I said and everything I did nt say .
Annie : Adam .
Adam : Annie .
Annie : Why did nt you tell me ? Brooke , you poor thing . Is there anything I can do ?
Adam : Oh , it s -- um -- here .
Annie : It s a miracle that she survived . The jaws of life . I -- ca nt even imagine . It must have been horrible .
Adam : Oh , there s nothing she ca nt handle .
Annie : Hmm . Yeah . Well , we should really be getting you home , huh . We ll go visit Brooke tomorrow .
Adam : Well , I ca nt abandon Brooke .
Annie : No . No , of course not . Of course not . Not after what she s been through . We ca nt leave Brooke .
Adam : Yes , yeah .
Annie : I ll go get us some coffee .
Adam : Well , nonsense , nonsense . Congressman Wilton awaits .
Annie : Well , Brooke will be out of the hospital by the time we have to leave .
Adam : You must have a million things to do . Just do nt worry about me . I ll be fine .
Annie : My place is with my husband . I m sure even Brooke would agree with that , Adam .
Adam : You ll be much more helpful if you can come up with a compelling case for bone marrow donations . Yeah , I ll call when I can come home .
Erica : Ryan ? Ryan -- ok , we have a problem .
Ryan : And you wasted a trip . I told you , Erica , I m not getting involved .
Erica : You are involved . You re still in love with Greenlee .
Ryan : And she does nt want me in her life .
Erica : Well , this is more than just Greenlee . This also affects Kendall . Ryan , you ca nt possibly turn your back on my a daughter , not now when she needs you most . She s the mother of your child .
Ryan : What are you talking about ?
Erica : Greenlee has been digging around about the night of her accident .
Ryan : How did that happen ?
Erica : She s bound and determined to testify at David s trial , and when she started asking questions , I do nt know , everyone s tried to discourage her from reliving that horrible night .
Ryan : And now she s realized there s more to that horrible night than she s been told , and she wo nt stop until she figures out that Kendall was driving the car that ran her off the road .
Erica : We have to stop her .
Ryan : No . Greenlee deserves to hear the truth .
Greenlee : This is a career maker if you win , so we need to work together to get David off . Are you with me ?
Liza : I better not be disappointed . Ok , so what is the plan to get David to go to trial ?
Greenlee : Tell him the D.A. would nt make a deal .
Liza : That s completely unethical .
Greenlee : Ha ! We re not gon na let a petty thing like ethics stop us from saving a man from prison , are we ? All right , I ll tell David it was all my fault if he ever finds out . Next ?
Liza : You are absolutely taking the witness stand , no matter what . That s the only way that the jury is gon na render a not guilty verdict .
Greenlee : Not a problem . What else do I need to do ?
Liza : Well , when you tell the jury just how David saved your life , you need to come off completely sympathetic , like you are somebody that needed to be rescued .
Greenlee : I was half dead . I lost a year in a coma . Obviously I could nt help myself .
Liza : Yeah , and you have to tone down that attitude . Listen , we re trying to paint David as the strong hero , not you .
Greenlee : Ok . For David , I ll even shop at frumpy s good girl boutique .
Liza : Thank you .
Greenlee : How much has David confided in you ?
Liza : I m not sure what you mean .
Greenlee : David does nt want me to testify . You do . You must have asked why he objected .
Liza : Well , you must have asked him why , as well .
Greenlee : Yeah , but now I m putting the question to you . What is David trying to protect me from ?
Annie : Adam married me . He promised to love , honor , and cherish me as long as we both shall live . You know what he s busy doing right now ? Cherishing Brooke English !
J.R. : Brooke does nt have any more family in Pine Valley . He s being a good friend . That s it .
Annie : Maybe it s time for Brooke to go back to that family and leave my husband alone .
J.R. : Do nt you think you re overreacting ? The woman just came out of surgery from a bad car crash .
Annie : Ok , if the next words out of your mouth are , She s a survivor , I m gon na be ill .
J.R. : All right , Annie , let s be real about this . You re just upset because my dad does nt want to go with you to D.C.
Annie : I was gon na walk the halls of Congress with Adam on my arm . People were gon na say , Wow ! Wow , look at that ! It s Mrs. Adam Chandler . But now I am just gon na be another nobody .
J.R. : You ll still be Mrs. Adam Chandler . You ll just be on my arm instead of my dad s .
Annie : Really ?
J.R. : Really . We re in this together .
Annie : Yeah , ok ! You do nt know how much that means to me . I should -- I still have nt figured out what I m gon na wear , so --
Adam : Good night .
Brooke : Good night
Angie : You think Damon s working me ?
Jesse : Well , I know he ca nt get anything past you , but it does nt mean he wo nt try .
Angie : Jesse , this kid is in trouble .
Jesse : Well , baby , this kid is trouble . Tad really needs to smack some sense into his thick - ass head .
Angie : Like someone did for you ?
Jesse : Do nt make comparisons to try to soften me up , all right ?
Angie : Listen , did I tell you about this young , agitated , completely out - of- control boy that we treated last week ? Damon was able to connect with him . He did what trained professionals could nt .
Jesse : I m not saying that the kid is unreachable . I m just saying you should nt take on more than you need to handle right now .
Angie : I wo nt .
Jesse : Good . I ll see you at home . Come here .
Angie : Ha ha !
Jesse : You love that .
Tad : Oh , jeez .
Angie : I m sorry .
Tad : Hey , baby .
Angie : Hey .
Tad : You know what I keep thinking about ? All the moments that I missed . Those first steps , his first dance , his first car .
Angie : Hmm .
Tad : How on earth did he get here ?
Angie : I do nt know , but we ll find out .
Tad : He s gon na make it through this .
Angie : Count on it .
Ryan : Ok , Greenlee deserves to hear the truth .
Erica : Even if Kendall and Zach end up in prison ?
Ryan : Nobody was gunning for Greenlee that night . It was an accident .
Erica : I know , but Zach covered it up , so that looks like they were hiding something , and Greenlee will believe it was intentional .
Ryan : Why would Kendall intentionally run Greenlee off the road ?
Erica : She would nt . But Greenlee just always jumps to the worst possible conclusions , and Greenlee has been shouting betrayal ever since she came back to town . Greenlee s out for revenge . Ryan , I can not let her go after my daughter .
Ryan : Well , and you ca nt keep it a secret forever , Erica . I mean , when Greenlee came back , she was nt ready to hear this , but she s ready now .
Erica : Ryan , you can not tell Greenlee .
Ryan : You re right , I ca nt . It s not my place . I wo nt . Greenlee needs to hear it from Kendall .
Greenlee : Tell me what David is hiding from me .
Liza : Uh , this is a conversation you should be having with your husband , not his lawyer .
Greenlee : No , I do nt need protection , I need answers .
Liza : Well , I ca nt break client / attorney privilege .
Greenlee : So you know what everyone is keeping secret from me . Do nt give me that privilege excuse . We ve already established ethics take a back seat in this situation . If it s a bombshell that could throw me on the witness stand , do nt you want to prepare me ?
Liza : All right , that night , you did nt just skid off the road . There was another driver involved .

### Dialogue:
Brooke : You guys know you re always welcome here , but I do nt think it ll help your case if you re the first thing that Ridge sees when he walks through that door .
Thorne : We re not gon na hang around , believe me .
Darla : We just wanted to stop by and thank you in person .
Brooke : I have nt done anything or promised anything .
Thorne : Maybe not yet but you will .
Brooke : You seem confident .
Thorne : I know you , Brooke . And you know what s right .
Darla : And I think you also know that it s completely out of line for Ridge to block the distribution of spectra couture .
Thorne : Yes , and you re the largest stockholder , not Ridge . Brooke , you can put an end to this . You can give spectra the chance that we deserve to enter this marketplace . Now all we re asking for is a shot .
Brooke : Hello ? Oh , hi , Ridge . Good , then I ll see you soon . I love you , too . Bye . He ll be here in a few minutes .
Thorne : We wo nt be .
Brooke : Okay .
Darla : Thank you in advance , Brooke . Oh , I know you wo nt let us down . Thank you .
Thomas : I do nt want to interrupt the flow of genius --
Caitlin : Oh , Thomas . What s this ?
Thomas : Just a latte and one of your favorite brownies .
Caitlin : You remembered the hazelnut . That is so sweet .
Thomas : Ah , it was no big deal . And I figured what happened with you and Rick , that you could use some caffeine and chocolate .
Caitlin : Yeah . Well , I definitely can . Thanks for thinking of me .
Thorne : Mother ! What are you doing here ?
Darla : Hi , Stephanie . Where s Sally ?
Stephanie : I think with the physical therapist .
Thorne : Ouch .
Darla : Poor guy .
Stephanie : Did you take my advice , did you go and see Brooke this morning ?
Darla : We just came from seeing Brooke . You know , she did nt promise us anything , but I think she s gon na come around , right , babe ?
Thorne : Mm - hmm .
Stephanie : She s got to assert herself on this . It s so important . She s really needs to stand up to Ridge .
Thorne : You d really like that , would nt you , Mother ?
Stephanie : Well , of course I would . What are you implying ?
Thorne : Come on . It s great that Brooke supports our cause , but it would be even better if her and Ridge fight about it , right ? I know what you re thinking -- maybe we can get my clothes into Jackie M , and then Brooke and Ridge break up at the same time .
Stephanie : Well , anything s possible , I suppose --
Darla : Oh , come on , guys -- please , nobody s gon na have to break up here . I think all Brooke needs to do is convince Ridge to drop this vendetta and then she would nt have to vote against him . You know , and if there s anybody that Ridge would listen to , it s Brooke . Right ?
Ridge : All right . Thank you very much . Have one on me . Take care . Hello , everybody ! Anybody home ? Hello ?
Brooke : Just your loving wife and lovable new baby .
Ridge : Hey , there . Hey , there , did you miss your daddy ? Did you ? Huh ?
Brooke : Well , I sure did .
Ridge : Yeah ?
Brooke : Mm - hmm .
Ridge : Well , I missed you guys , too . You have a present over there in the suitcase . But yours , little guy , look at this -- from one of Rome s best little toy stores --
Brooke : Oh , look at that !
Ridge : Ciao ! Bambino . Ciao . Ciao . Ciao . Where is everybody ? I got gifts for everyone .
Brooke : Phoebe and Steffy are at their music lessons , and Thomas is at Forrester , and Hope is at preschool . I m going to have to get her up before too long .
Ridge : Oh , well , do nt just leave us now . You and I have got a lot to catching up to do .
Brooke : Oh .
Thomas : Look , Caitlin , I realize I was a bit of a jerk about the whole Rick thing at first .
Caitlin : It s okay . You were just worried about me .
Thomas : Well , I m sorry about the way it worked out between you two .
Caitlin : Or did nt work out , more precisely .
Thomas : Just know that if you ever want someone to talk to or hang out with -- get you more brownies -- let me know .
Caitlin : Thanks . How about a hug ?
Thomas : Come here .
Darla : Okay , we have to think positive here . Because I know in Brooke s heart , that she agrees with us . You know , she thinks that Ridge forcing Jackie M into not carrying spectra couture is wrong .
Stephanie : But she did nt tell you that she would get into this with him , did she ? And that s what worries me .
Darla : Well , but Stephanie , it s gon na take a lot of guts to stand up to ridge .
Thorne : Well , I just ca nt believe that Brooke would just throw out all of her principles and let Ridge bulldoze over me and everyone at Forrester . I mean , she will at least put up a good fight .
Stephanie : I m beginning to have my doubts .
Ridge : Well , that s one perk you certainly do nt get in business class .
Brooke : I certainly hope not .
Catherine : Hey , Ridge !
Ridge : Hey .
Catherine : Sorry to interrupt , but R.J. Here has a stroller - date with the gorgeous one - year - old down the street .
Brooke : Oh , you mean the little girl with the gorgeous male nanny ?
Catherine : Yeah .
Ridge : Yeah , yeah . Well , knock yourself out , kiddo . Did I happen mentioned how much I ve missed you ?
Brooke : Likewise . It must have been pretty rough over there .
Ridge : It just kept getting more and more frustrating as time went on . I never should ve even had to make that damn trip . I resent being away from you and the kids , and Massimo .
Brooke : I m sure Massimo would understand . He knows what it takes to run a company .
Ridge : It s all damage control , Logan . You have no idea of the confusion and image problems we re having with our foreign distributors . Spectra couture by Thorne Forrester was all they could talk about -- why did nt Forrester creations have a fall showing ? Did Thorne actually steal mine and dad designs from us ? How could that happen ? Why would we let that happen ? Fortunately , I had all my answers down pat , just to kinda put a good spin on things -- but I pretty much spent every hotel night wondering how my brother could have screwed us over so completely .
Brooke : The important thing is that you did control the damage . The worst is over .
Ridge : But is it really ? Now that mother and dad are playing that forgive and forget game with Thorne , I m just supposed to be okay sharing rack space with spectra ? At Jackie M or god knows what other place . Well , forget it , Logan . It s not gon na happen .
Caitlin : No , no , no , no .
Amber : I do nt know . Well , you know , I was thinking maybe we should try a , like , a solid gold pant as opposed to such a colorful one .
Caitlin : Amber , you scared me .
Amber : Sorry . That s what I call deep into your work .
Caitlin : Yeah , well , Ridge will be back in the office tomorrow , so I want to make sure I have good stuff to show him .
Amber : Well , this design s great . It really is .
Caitlin : Thanks . So , um , you do nt have to butter me up first , Amber . You can just get right to your point .
Amber : What point ?
Caitlin : The I - told - you - so ? Come on , Amber . I m sure you heard Rick and I broke up .
Amber : I had no idea .
Caitlin : You did nt ? Thomas did nt tell you ?
Amber : No , no . I have nt seen him yet , I was on my way to see him and I saw you in here and thought I d stop by and say hi -- I m really sorry to hear that . You guys , you seemed like you had something really positive and healthy together . I guess , sometimes things just do nt work out . And then , other times , a relationship that everybody thinks is the worst idea in the world ends up defying all of the odds and becomes something really special .
Caitlin : Like you and Thomas .
Amber : Look , Caitlin , I just want you to know that if you need a friend to help you through this , I m here for you .
Thorne : You ve told Brooke if she wanted to be a full - fledged Forrester , that she should do what s best for this family . Now , I have to believe that s what she s gon na do .
Darla : Well , she does want us all to get along . And she owns a big chunk of the stock .
Stephanie : Owning and using it are two different things .
Thorne : Man -- it would nt have to be a vote if she could talk Ridge out of doing this .
Stephanie : I hope she at least tries .
Ridge : You know , you still have nt told me what I m most interested in -- which is , how you ve been doin .
Brooke : Oh , I m okay .
Ridge : Just okay ?
Brooke : Well , there s been a lot going on at work . Your ultimatum to Nick has everyone buzzing .
Ridge : Just business as usual . Forrester is not gon na share retail space with second - rate schlock .
Brooke : I know that . But the problem is not everyone is in agreement that Spectra Couture by Thorne Forrester is second - rate schlock . Nick thinks that you are putting him an unfair position , and that he should be the one to decide what Jackie M carries .
Ridge : With all respect to my half - brother , he s been in the rag trade all of , what , ten minutes ? But he s also dating my sister , who happens to be on Thorne s payroll .
Brooke : It s not just Nick , Ridge . It s your parents , too . They think you re being way too harsh . That this ultimatum is going to cause more harm than good .
Ridge : Hmm . And what about you , Logan ? Do you agree with them ?
Caitlin : We re not friends , Amber . Why in the world would you be there for me ?
Amber : Okay , fine . Maybe we have nt been getting along too well lately .
Caitlin : You threw coffee on me . It was an accident . But remember when I was living at your house after the fire ?
Caitlin : Yeah , that was a great time . I really looked up to you .
Amber : And I thought of you like a kid sister . I mean , really , I did . I mean , there s no reason for us to fight , Caitlin . You and I , we actually have a lot in common .
Caitlin : Us ?
Amber : Yes , us . Now , I mean , we re both damn talented designers . And we were both raised without much money by single parents -- yours did a hell of a lot better than mine did , but , you know , we both became involved with the Forresters , and the family and the company . We both cared about Rick a lot . And we both probably always will . So , if you need to blow off some steam , maybe we could go see one of those gory horror flicks , or maybe we could go over to the bikini bar and check out the new crop of hotties . So , if you feel like doing somethin give me a call and Thomas and I will be more than happy to escort you . I m gon na find Thomas now . So you hang in there .
Caitlin : Thanks , Amber . I really appreciate it . I need all the friends I can get right now .
Amber : Yeah , you and I ll be great friends , Caitlin . Just as long as you keep your hands off Thomas .
Darla : Oh , god . This waiting around is driving me nuts .
Thorne : Me , too , honey . But I m sure Brooke will let us know something as soon as she can .
Stephanie : What makes me nervous is that we have to depend on Brooke for something that s so important . We actually need her to stand up to Ridge .
Thorne : Well , Mother , she does nt have to defy him . She just has to talk to him .
Stephanie : Well , it s all the same thing , is nt it ? I mean , finally , after all these years , she s gotten what she s always wanted . She s married to him . I do nt think she s going to risk that relationship . The most important thing in the world to her is to be Mrs. Ridge Forrester .
Thorne : Well , we ll see .
Darla : Do nt give up yet , sweetie . Stephanie , has nt Brooke ever surprised you before ?
Stephanie : Oh , many times and I ve never liked any of it .
Ridge : Logan , talk to me here .
Brooke : You know I trust your business instincts . And you ve taught me all of the basics of the fashion industry . And I m incredibly grateful that we re going to be working together again .
Ridge : Why do I have a feeling there s a but in there ?
Brooke : Because , in this particular instance , I think that you re overreacting .
Ridge : Really ?
Brooke : Thorne is your brother .
Ridge : Well , that did nt seem to stop him from walking out on Forrester Creations and then blatantly stealing our whole collection to inaugurate spectra couture by Thorne Forrester . If anybody else had done that dad and I would have sued them into the ground , but because it was poor , mistreated Thorne , he gets away with it .
Brooke : Thorne regrets the way he handled things . He and his team have gone completely legit .
Ridge : Yeah , so I ve been hearing . He does nt want to be treated any differently than any other competitor , which is fine . Because I m through cutting him any breaks . Forrester Ccreations does not have to sell to any chain that refuses to uphold premium standards of couture excellence . And that includes Jackie M if they decide to carry Spectra . Now , if Nick wants to take Forrester over spectra , that s just good business .
Brooke : Come on , Ridge , you re not exactly giving nick a choice .
Ridge : Hey , he s free to go with whatever designers he wants to . But we in turn are free to take our distribution elsewhere if we do nt agree with him .
Brooke : And what if your father does nt agree ? He is still CEO .
Ridge : Logan , together you and I still control the majority of stock . So , my decision stands . After what spectra couture has put this family and this company through the last year , I m not just gon na hand over the keys to the high - fashion marketplace to them . It s not gon na happen !
Brooke : My god , Ridge , do you hear how vindictive that sounds ? Should nt this be about the product ? You saw the original designs of Spectra Couture and you thought they were great . Thorne and his team are working at a very high skill level now . Okay , maybe they re not gon na be like you and Eric , not yet , anyway . But they re certainly not going to tarnish the image of Forrester creations or Jackie M. And they are not a threat . Although , this ultimatum to Nick may get the press and the fashion industry thinking that that s how you perceive Spectra .
Ridge : So you think I m making a bad business move ?
Brooke : I do nt think this is about business at all . I think this is personal . And I think it starts at the root of when you heard Eric tell Thorne , at the Forrester / Spectra fashion show , that Thorne was Eric and Stephanie s only son .
Ridge : Oh , come on , Brooke ! That s ridiculous . God , I regret even mentioning that conversation now . It has nothing to do with that .
Brooke : Well , it meant a lot to you , Ridge .
Ridge : Logan , it was no big deal , all right . I mean , he is their only son , is nt he ? At least biologically speaking . Why would I be upset just because dad wanted to mention that ?
Brooke : Because it flies in the face of everything that you grew up with . You re entire self - esteem , your self - image . The relationship that you had with Eric , that you always had .
Ridge : Nothing has changed .
Brooke : Something has changed . Thorne has found his way at Spectra . And the fashion industry has given their approval and you parents have , too . Now , I know it may seem like this whole favoritism thing has shifted --
Ridge : Oh , come on , Logan . Wait , is that what you think is going on here ? You think I m just doing this to get even because I m jealous of Thorne ? !
Brooke : Yes . That s what I think .

### Dialogue:
Sally : Is there anything she does nt eat ?
Wyatt : I -- pfft . I mean ... nobody s pickier than liam , right ?
Sally : You did nt ask her , did you ?
Wyatt : No . But do nt stress about it , okay ? Cause flo goes with the flow , you know ? That s always her motto .
Sally : Okay . So , one more steak and another couple chicken breasts ?
Wyatt : Look , that should be perfect , okay ? And I m sorry again . I kind of threw you a curveball .
Sally : Hey , look , I m glad she s coming over . You know everything about my past , and I barely know anything about yours .
Wyatt : Right . Well , do nt ask her too much , cause nothing good can come of that .
Sally : Mm . Oh ! And do nt answer the phone , just in case hope and liam are thinking of backing out .
Wyatt : Good call .
Sally : Yeah .
Liam : You re not dressed .
Hope : I m dressed . This is as far as I got . So , I was thinking --
Liam : No , no , no , no , no , no , no , no , no . I know what you re gon na say , okay ? You d rather stay home . But think about it . Dinner with wyatt and sally -- that s gon na be easy , right ? Because they understand . And , hell , my brother s a party all unto himself . We have to start living our lives again , hope . Do nt you think ?
Steffy : What is that ?
Taylor : Technology . Make your own baby food .
Steffy : You know I can do that with a blender .
Taylor : Only after slicing and dicing and draining and boiling . This little gizmo does it all -- frees you up for other things .
Steffy : That s pretty cool . I like the sound of it .
Taylor : I know I have nt been around much to help , and once my practice starts going full - time ...
Steffy : Mom , nobody s happier than I am that you re rebuilding your life .
Taylor : Well , that s because you gave me the space to do it . Thanks to you and those two beautiful little granddaughters of mine , I m excited about the future again .
Steffy : [ Chuckles ]
Xander : Dinner smells amazing .
Zoe : Yeah ? Pot roast . Very american ... [ British accent ] To go with our new personas .
Xander : Ah . That did nt sound very american .
Zoe : [ American accent ] Okay . Do nt judge me . It has nt been an easy week .
Xander : How can I help ?
Zoe : Well , how bout just saying nice things to me ... and being my boy toy ?
Zoe : Okay . I hope you are hungry .
Xander : Have I ever not been ?
Zoe : [ Chuckles ]
Xander : You know , I - I wish you d just let me take you out .
Zoe : Oh , well , sometimes it s nice to be private .
Xander : Yeah , but ... you need pampering way more than I do .
Zoe : [ Scoffs ] I deserve that . Is that what my horoscope says or something ?
Xander : [ Chuckles ] No , it s just ... you know , I can tell something s weighing on you . Is it your father ? So , you ve -- you ve heard from him , then ?
Zoe : No . And , uh , I do nt want to .
Taylor : You just pour in a little water and set the timer , and then it ll steam and puree the sweet potatoes or the carrots or apples or -- ow ! Ow !
Steffy : Mom , are you okay ? Are you bleeding ? Here .
Taylor : It s just enough to make me feel foolish .
Steffy : It s okay ?
Taylor : Yeah , it s okay .
Steffy : Someone s a little rusty with a knife .
Taylor : Oh . Yeah . Well , it S ... been a little while . I have nt had a reason to be domestic until kelly and phoebe .
Steffy : Yeah . Seriously , are you really okay ?
Taylor : I m okay .
Steffy : Okay . Yeah , well , I - I know what you mean . I m really good at running the company , but ... nothing compares to doing all the little practical things for the girls .
Taylor : So , no regrets about the adoption ?
Steffy : No . Kelly was nt meant to be an only child . All phoebe did was complete us .
Wyatt : Hey ! You found us . Come on in .
Flo : I did , yeah . I was -- I was pretty sure I was in the wrong place and some movie star s guard dog was gon na come running out at me .
Wyatt : [ Laughs ]
Flo : It s -- it s gorgeous . I feel like I m in some cinderella fairy tale .
Wyatt : Speaking of gorgeous , you look amazing . [ Clears throat ] Sally just , uh , took off to get some things , and she ll be right back .
Flo : And your brother and his wife ?
Wyatt : Ah , they re not here yet . But I do have to warn you that they are so likable , it s sickening .
Flo : Oh . It must run in the family .
Wyatt : [ Chuckles ]
Hope : I just -- I hate having you see me like this , let alone other people .
Liam : Hope , you survived something devastating , and everybody who knows you knows that . Right ? I mean , certainly , wyatt and sally do , and , listen , if we decide to leave early , they will understand that , too . Look at it this way . We will never find an easier re - entry into a social life than this one .
Hope : You re right . I have to try .
Liam : [ Smooches ]
Xander : This is insanely delicious .
Zoe : You ve seriously never had pot roast ? Well , it was always one of my father s favorites .
Xander : Okay . I did nt bring him up this time . You did .
Zoe : Right . So ... how bout we just turn back the dial to five minutes ago ?
Xander : Did something happen since he left , or before he left , to make you lose patience with him ?
Zoe : It s just every time i think that he s going to be a better man and make better decisions , he just -- you know , he lets me down . He s gambled away his money and his principles , too . And when I think of some of the things he s done to cover his losses , it ... horrifies me .
Wyatt : Ah . Here you go .
Flo : Thank you .
Wyatt : Yeah .
Flo : You know , it really makes me so happy to see how well you ve done for yourself .
Wyatt : [ Chuckling ] Yeah . Well , I mean , some of it comes with being a spencer . I mean , my mom and I did well when I was wyatt fuller and everything , but land of opportunity , I guess . Um [ Clears throat ] But , I m telling you , I - I think ... that you should -- I do nt know -- think about moving here .
Flo : I do nt know . It s such a big city , and I - i did nt think I was gon na run in to anyone I knew , but ...
Wyatt : Right .
Flo : ... Here we are .
Wyatt : Yeah . Well , two people , right ?
Flo : Yeah .
Wyatt : I mean , one of them was that friend that you were gon na help .
Flo : Yeah , but nothing -- nothing good came of that one .
Wyatt : I mean , I can think of one good thing .
Flo : What ?
Wyatt : You being here tonight . Hey , babe !
Sally : Hi .
Wyatt : I did nt -- I did nt know you were gon na get so much stuff .
Sally : Well , yeah . I was at the sre anyway .
Wyatt : Thanks .
Wyatt : Yeah . As you probably have guessed , this is my boo , spectra .
Sally : Hi .
Flo : It s so nice to meet you .
Sally : Yeah ! Same here .
Flo : Thanks for having me . Um , is there anything that I can help with ?
Sally : Yeah . Actually , you can tell me all of the adorable and possibly sinister things that wyatt did in high school .
Flo : [ Chuckles ] Well , um ... he had a mohawk in 9th grade for like 10 minutes .
Wyatt : Uh [ Chuckles ] Yeah , it was a fauxhawk , thank you very much . Here .
Sally : That s it ?
Flo : Some people just are nt really that secretive .
Sally : Well , true , I guess . Wyatt and I have that in common .
Wyatt : [ Chuckles ]
Flo : I used to be like that , too .
Sally : Now you re a woman of mystery ?
Flo : No . Just more like a woman who ... has a few things she wo nt willingly bring up .
Wyatt : [ Chuckles ] You know , I think I should , uh , maybe turn on the grill .
Sally : Uh , yeah , if you think we can count on your brother .
Wyatt : Well , do nt even get me started on my brother s timing . [ Knock on door ] Actually , there he is .
Sally : Okay . Seriously , though , there s got to be something about wyatt .
Flo : Really , I mean ...
Wyatt : Hey .
Liam : Hey . Sorry we re late .
Wyatt : No , come on . I did nt even put the portobello on the barbie yet . &
Hope : [ Chuckles ]
Lim : Ahh .
Wyatt : [ Chuckles ] Uh , guys , I want you to meet an old friend of mine -- a young old friend . Uh , flo fulton , this is my brother liam and , uh --
Flo : Oh .
Hope : You .
Sally : You two have met ?
Hope : Uh , earlier today . Liam , this is her . This is -- this is phoebe s birth mother . Andrew wanted nothing to do with his volcano demonstration .
Xander : Did something new happen between you and reese , and , if so , did I miss it ?
Zoe : Look , I do nt really want to talk about my father tonight .
Xander : But you were worried about him .
Zoe : But he packed his bags . He left . And I m sitting across the table from a very different man [ Chuckles softly ] A man who works hard , who s honest , a man who I m lucky to have in my life , a man who I trust enough to even think of building a future with .
Xander : Yeah , and that future is gon na look nothing like our messed - up past .
Zoe : Yeah , unless , uh , i become impossible and you pack up and leave the country .
Xander : [ Chuckles ] I bet you $ 100 that that s not gon na happen .
Zoe : Oh . No wager , please .
Xander : No , I was -- I was kidding .
Zoe : I guess having a father who bets on anything kind of warped my sense of humor .
Xander : Sorry . Forgive me ?
Zoe : Give me one good reason why I should . Okay . I might need a second reason .
Xander : Yeah .
Steffy : Okay . That s good . Yeah . I m not cooking again . You and I , we re , uh -- we re gon na eat what kelly eats . It s actually good .
Taylor : Can I tell you how much I love seeing you happy ? A little fatigued but happy .
Steffy : Yeah . Yeah , I am . It s true . [ Sighs ] I just feel like ... I feel like I stole something from someone who deserved it more .
Taylor : Well , you didnT.
Steffy : What if flo is having second thoughts about giving up her parental rights ?
Taylor : She knows how to reach you . You tried to include her , but it was nt what she wanted . Maybe it takes shutting down certain feelings to be able to do what she had to do .
Steffy : Wherever flo is , i hope she knows that phoebe is in a happy , loving home .
Hope : I do nt understand .
Flo : Your -- your brother is -- is married to --
Wyatt : To hope . You met earlier today ?
Flo : So , you must be ...
Liam : How do you know my brother ?
Flo : We , um -- we -- we dated in high school .
Wyatt : I thought it was a little more serious than that . We were high - school sweethearts .
Sally : Oh . Now he tells me .
Wyatt : Babe , seriously , that was , like , a lifetime ago . I - I - I did nt even know she was working at bikini .
Hope : That s where she and i met today , too .
Wyatt : I had no idea you had any other connection with the people in L.A. No , that s not true . You had a friend .
Flo : I do nt want to talk about it , please .
Liam : Well , I think it s fair to say this awkward .
Sally : [ Scoffs ] Yeah . This poor woman walks into a house full of strangers who suddenly decides to discuss her highly personal and private business . Maybe ... let s just let our guest have a little breathing room .
Hope : I -- yeah . I am so , so sorry . I did nt mean to just blurt it out like that .
Flo : You do nt have to apologize .
Wyatt : Did you think you could nt tell me , like I d be shocked ?
Flo : No . I just , um --
Wyatt : So then why d you say you never had any kids ? My mom s pain from moderate
Xander : [ Sighs ]
Zoe : [ Sighs ] I really miss him .
Xander : Poor harry . You think we should get a new cat ?
Zoe : Prince harry is irreplaceable . You do nt just tell someone who s lost a child that , ah , do nt worry . You can have another one . Yeah . Everything living is irreplaceable .
Xander : Well , what about mosquitoes ? I do nt think I d miss those .
Zoe : [ Chuckles ]
Xander : It s getting a little warm in here , huh ?
Zoe : Well , maybe you should ... take something off .
Xander : Well , I - Id take my hat off , but I m not wearing one .
Zoe : Mm . Oh . No , no , no , no . A mosquito just flew down your shirt . We ca nt have that .
Xander : Well , you know best , you know , being a - a doctor s daughter , so ...
Zoe : Shh .
Xander : You know , uh ... I think I have a bite right here .
Zoe : Oh , yeah ?
Xander : Yeah .
Taylor : Everything okay ?
Steffy : Yeah . Yeah . I thought I heard a noise , but they re just dreaming . What are you doing ?
Taylor : So many wonderful pictures ! [ Gasps ] Ohh .
Steffy : Yeah . They grow -- grow up so fast . I do nt want to miss anything .
Taylor : Neither do I. Which is why -- and I do nt mean this the wrong way -- I m glad you have nt heard from flo . For whatever reasons , motherhood was not what she wanted , so she signed it away . And she needs to move on with her life , and we can move on with ours .
Steffy : Yeah , I know . I know . I just thought that phoebe would want to know her and ... she would want to know phoebe . Wow . I have been with phoebe longer than flo has . I am a mom . I m a mother to her in every way that matters .
Taylor : And no one can take that from you .
Flo : I m so sorry about all of this .
Sally : All of what ?
Flo : I should go .
Wyatt : No . Hey , come on . We have nt even started dinner yet .
Hope : Yeah , and I ca nt stand it if you feel like we put you on the spot . That was not our intention at all .
Liam : Abs-- absolutely . Nobody wants that .
Hope : Yeah , and if you told wyatt that you do nt have any children , then you do nt have any children . It is as simple as that . And as someone has given birth and who has been through a lot , I understand that it can be difficult to discuss , so ...
Flo : But it s true . Phoe-- phoebe is nt mine .
Wyatt : That was -- it was a stupid question , all right ? I was nt thinking . Please just do nt go .
Sally : Yeah . Look , we re all so used to being up in each other s business , we re a little rusty at respecting boundaries .
Liam : I m gon na go ahead and , uh , freshen this up for you .
Hope : You know , do you want to sit with me for a while ?
Flo : Sure , sure . Yeah .
Hope : Okay .
Liam : Dude , you really had no idea she was phoebe s birth mom ?
Wyatt : None . How could I ?
Liam : Well , I -- -Sally : Okay , the woman is more than a walking womb . Can we all just remember that ?
Hope : Liam wanted to be there today when I told him that I met you . It s just that phoebe s such a special little girl .
Flo : Yeah . It s just a little hard for me to talk about right now .
Hope : Oh . I mean , no explanation necessary . I - I completely understand .
Liam : Uh , there you go . I , um ... [ Clears throat ] I - I imagine wyatt mentioned that hope and i are grieving the loss of our own daughter .
Flo : He didnT.
Liam : Oh . Uh ... well , it was a stillbirth , so it was kind of like my other daughter lost a sister .
Flo : You -- you have another child ?
Hope : Uh , no . Liam does with his ex - wife , steffy .
Liam : Yeah . But , you know , it s kind of like she has a sister back now . You know , phoebe sort of ... replaced our daughter .
Flo : I am -- I am so sorry for your loss .
Liam : There s nothing anybody could have done . Do nt you worry about it .
Hope : Well , that s not exactly true . There was a windstorm that night . The power went out . There was one doctor at the clinic , and even though the delivery seemed to be going well ... I passed out right when I was giving birth to beth . That was the name that we gave her .
Liam : Hope , I do nt -- i do nt think now is the time --
Hope : Well , no . If I had been stronger , then beth might still be here today , and ... flo , I m so sorry . I am so sorry . You ca nt take me anywhere . I did nt -- I did nt mean to make you sad .
Flo : It s just I - I - I just -- I know what you re going through .
Hope : It s okay .
Flo : I just -- I wish I had known .
Hope : Known what ? We -- we just met you . There s nothing you could have done . It s okay .
Flo : It s the things you do nt do that you regret , you know ? There are questions you do nt ask . There are objections that you do nt raise . Just p - please do nt hate me .
Hope : Hate you ? I - I have nothing but respect for you .
Liam : And -- and gratitude .
Flo : I do nt deserve it .
Wyatt : Flo , nobody here is judging you .
Hope : Are -- are you trying to tell us something ? Is that it ?
Flo : Yeah . It s , uh ... it s about phoebe .

### Dialogue:
Jessica : Yeah , but this is all my fault . I m the one Spike is after . Spike is furious that I left him , and now he is going to take it out on Noah .
Simone : No , you heard what Noah said . He thinks that Spike is a part of this whole mystery somehow .
Jessica : Yeah , because of the tattoo on Spike s wrist , but how could Spike have anything to do with paintings that were stolen during World War II ?
Simone : Well , for one thing , we know that Spike was working for Alistair .
Jessica : But Alistair is in a coma .
Simone : Yeah , but we found all of those stolen paintings in the basement of the Book Café , and that was filled with all of Alistair s stuff .
Jessica : So , huh . Spike could still be doing things for Alistair .
Simone : Yeah , I think that Noah is right . And Spike was the one who got that symbol tattooed on your back and the same one on his arm .
Jessica : And it s the same symbol that s in every one of those missing paintings .
Simone : And on the paper that we found under Whitney s mattress at the convent .
Jessica : Well , all I know is I do nt want Noah going after Spike . Spike is mean and if he is involved in this mystery , who knows what he will do .
Paloma : That s what we are going to find out .
Simone : Paloma , you ca nt still be thinking about going to that big art exhibit .
Paloma : Why not ? The picture we tore this from is in that gallery somewhere . We have to find it .
Simone : Yeah , but Noah told us to stay put .
Jessica : No , Paloma is right . We need to go to that exhibit .
Paloma : So , that s that . We are going . We are going to find out what s going on here in Rome once and for all .
Beth : Ok , good , good . We are early . Now we just have to make sure we are not spotted by Fancy . Oh , perfect , look . There s masks for the guests . Come on . Here , here , Spike , put this on . Oh , this is perfect . Now no one will know who we are .
Spike : But how am I going to know which one is Fancy ? I do nt want to kill the wrong babe .
Beth : Ok , Spike , the only reason you are here is to kill Fancy Crane . Do nt screw it up .
Spike : Ok , chill . All right ? I m on it . I told you I would do the job and I will . So be cool , ok ?
Beth : Ok , I will be cool as soon as I get rid of the bleached blonde . Then Luis will be all mine .
Luis : Hate to do this to you , Fancy , but it s for your own good . The guard will keep you safe while I m gone .
Fancy : Well , how do I look ?
Luis : Like a million bucks , but it s too bad no one is going to see you but me .
Fancy : Do nt be silly . Everyone at the gallery will see me .
Luis : Well , no , I ve already told you that I do nt think it s safe for you to go to the gallery .
Fancy : And I told you it s the perfect plan . You need to find Beth to get your son back from her . She wants to kill me because she thinks you and I are an item . So , I will go to the exhibit , lure Beth to the gallery , and voila . You nab Beth .
Luis : And what if , voila , Beth slits your throat before I can get to her ?
Fancy : In front of all those people ? And you ll be right by my side , wo nt you ?
Luis : No , because you are not going to be there . I am not letting you go .
Fancy : Um , you re not letting me ? Where do you get off treating me like a child ?
Luis : Well , if you act like a child , I will treat you like a child . But I m sorry , Beth already tried to kill you once and I m not going to let you put yourself in danger . You are staying here .
Fancy : But I thought it was important for you to catch Beth .
Luis : Of course it is .
Fancy : So let me go with you . I can help you get her .
Luis : No , I ca nt do that . I ca nt risk it . Look , I would never forgive myself if anything happened to you , ok ? And Sheridan would never forgive me either . You are her favorite niece .
Fancy : Oh , why are you being so pig - headed ?
Luis : Sorry . Anyway , there is a guard posted outside the door . He has orders not to let you leave the suite , ok ?
Fancy : Mm .
Luis : Oh , that s right . And I will be taking this , and the front desk has orders not to take any calls from this suite . See you later .
Fancy : But -- I just -- [ Groans ] Damn you , Luis .
Denny : I ve called the Swiss guards , so you can describe your friend to them both with and without her disguise . So we can find Whitney before she does any harm to the church .
Chad : Ok , let s go . Where d they go ? That old woman talking to the Pope , she can help us find Whitney .
Denny : The Pope has security guards 24/7 , so he s probably been taken to a safe room . After the mystic s warning about the innocent one , everyone here is on edge .
Chad : Yeah , the old nun said that Whitney was the innocent one and that she was being used by some evil person . Denny , how could that be happening here in the Vatican ?
Denny : I ve heard that there are secrets here , secrets that could destroy the church if they were found by the wrong person .
Chad : We got ta find Whitney before something terrible happens .
Nun : It is too late .
Chad : What do you mean ?
Nun : His holiness told me that the deceiver is closer now .
Denny : Does that mean they found the secrets ?
Nun : I believe this is true , but they have not been able to -- how do you say -- get to them . But the deceiver is still trying , using her , the innocent one .
Chad : Sister , Sister , is Whitney -- is the innocent one here in the Vatican now ?
Nun : No , not now . But wherever she is , she is in grave danger . When this fake monk finds what he wants , he will have no more use for her .
Chad : What do you mean ? What is he going to do to her ?
Nun : He will -- oh , come se dice -- eliminate her . She will be gone ... forever .
Alistair : [ Disguised voice ] Well , what do you see ?
Whitney : Nothing .
Alistair : No , no . There is a clue in this painting . You must find it , Whitney .
Whitney : Well , I do nt see anything here , Brother . And , you know , it would really help me out if you could give me a clue of what I m looking for .
Alistair : I told you I do nt know . Why do you think I ve involved you ? If I knew what the clues were , I would nt need you .
Whitney : Well , I do nt think I can help you then . There is nothing in this painting that gives me some sort of clue to a code , a message , nothing .
Alistair : Keep looking . You are the innocent one , Whitney . You are the only one who can find the code to access that chalice without setting off the alarm .
Whitney : I ll keep trying .
Alistair : Good . I m going to the Vatican to the Pope s chambers . I will call you when I arrive . Hopefully , by then , you will have found what I need .
Whitney : I have to do this . I have to do this or my soul and Chad s soul will be damned to hell forever . I do nt see anything here , absolutely nothing .
Officer : The man you describe sounds very much like a man we just arrested for public drunkenness .
Theresa : Yeah , the man , he was drunk when I left him . Please take us to him right away , please . Thank you .
Ethan : Theresa , you just described half the Americans in Rome , ok ? I would nt get too excited about this .
Theresa : Ethan , it s J.T. , ok ? He is going to tell you the truth . He s going to prove to you that I m not crazy and I m not lying , that Gwen and Rebecca were the ones who outed you as a Bennett to the tabloid .
Ethan : You have tried to prove this so many times . You are on another wild goose chase .
Theresa : No , I m not . Rebecca and J.T. were lovers , so she and Gwen sent the information about your paternity to his paper .
J.T. : Look , I said I was sorry I did nt get out of town sooner , but I need the bail if I m going to disappear before Theresa finds me .
Gwen : J.T. , I m on the computer right now getting your bail money . Just hold on .
Rebecca : I told you to get yourself out of Rome , you idiot . But no , did you listen ? No , you had to have one more drink and get yourself busted .
J.T. : Look , I said I was sorry , ok ? Oh no ! She s here .
Gwen : Who s there ? Theresa ?
J.T. : Yes , and she s got Ethan with her .
Gwen : Oh , God .
Rebecca : Get out of there now .
J.T. : I ca nt . There is nowhere to hide .
Rebecca : Oh , my God .
Theresa : He s going to tell you the truth , Ethan . It s all I want . I just want you to know the truth about Gwen once and for all .
Chad : So , you re saying this fake monk , or whoever he is , is going to kill Whitney ?
Nun : It will be done . Once the innocent one finds what this evil wants , he will have no more use for her .
Denny : There has to be a way to stop him .
Chad : Well , if I find this fake monk , I ll stop him all right .
Nun : Do not underestimate this man . He is pure evil .
Denny : Listen , Chad . I know you were pretty tough back in the hood , but the nun is right . You do not want to mess with this evil .
Chad : I am not scared of some fake monk , ok ? I ll do whatever it takes to keep Whitney safe .
Alistair : Whitney ? Have you found anything on that painting ?
Whitney : No . No , Brother , not yet . But I m still looking .
Alistair : Right , I m in the Vatican . I do nt think I can figure out where the Pope s inner chamber is . Now , how did you get inside when you were wearing the virtual reality headset ?
Whitney : Ok , you are going to be looking for a tunnel with a stair case . Now there s going to be a wall to the right . It looks like a brick wall , but if you put your hand right on the center of it , the stairs will fold down and the door will open . And it leads you right into the Pope s private chambers .
Alistair : Good , I ll get back to you .
Denny : Listen , Chad , I m sorry . I ve been called into a meeting . I hate to leave you with this problem on your hands .
Chad : Hey , do nt worry about it . You do what you got to do , ok ? I m going to keep looking for Whitney and this mysterious monk .
Denny : May God be with you , my brother .
Chad : Sister , are you ok ? What s wrong ?
Nun : He is here . The deceiver , he s here . He s here .
Theresa : I just wish you were at J.T. s apartment . Ethan , Gwen and Rebecca admitted everything to me again .
Ethan : So you ve told me . The problem is J.T. Cornell was nt there to verify your story .
Theresa : Yes , but he will be now . You ll see .
J.T. : I told you there s no place to run , there s no place to hide . You ve got to get me out of here .
Gwen : J.T. , it s almost done .
Rebecca : J.T. , you ve got to do something . Just find a place to hide . You ca nt let Theresa see you there .
J.T. : Becks , I do nt have a choice .
Gwen : Oh , God , Mother , this is over . Theresa is going to find J.T. and I m going to lose Ethan .
Theresa : Where is he ? I mean , what -- what -- what s this ?
Officer : I do nt know . He must have been moved .
Ethan : Moved where ?
Theresa : You need to find him . I mean , we have to talk to him right away . Please , find him .
Ethan : Hey , hey , calm down .
Theresa : I m sorry . How -- why am I supposed to be calm here , ok ? The man who is supposed to change my life just suddenly disappears ?
Ethan : You do nt even know if the guy in this cell was J.T. Cornell . It could have been some other drunk , Theresa .
Theresa : It was J.T. I know it was .
Ethan : Wow , ok , listen . I ll go talk to the officer . I ll see if we can find him , ok ?
Theresa : I m not going to stand here and do nothing . I m going to go find him myself .
J.T. : You ladies do nt seem to understand . I m in jail , got to have the money for the bail . Oh no , I m out of time . Hey , ca nt talk anymore . Send the money A - S - A - P. Ciao .
Gwen : J.T. , aello ? Are you there ?
Rebecca : He hung up .
Gwen : He hung up ? Oh , my God . I guess the only thing we can do now is hope that this bail money gets there in time .
Theresa : Joe ? Got you , and this time you are not getting away .
Simone : I still do nt think that this is a good idea .
Paloma : Simone , it s the reason we came here to Rome , is nt it , to try to locate those stolen paintings ?
Simone : Jessica , your brother is going to be so mad that we did nt stay put like he told us to .
Jessica : I m more worried about the danger he could be in .
Simone : Well , I guess he could be in danger .
Paloma : We are going to show our big brothers that we are not just kids . That painting is going to be at that gallery tonight , and maybe we ll get the answers we were looking for .
Simone : Ok .
Theresa : Do nt you even try to get away from me .
Officer : What are you doing , signorina ?
Theresa : I m Mrs. Alistair Crane . I have permission to be here , so you can check if you d like .
J.T. : Scusi , signore . My --
Theresa : No , no , no , you are going to wait here . You are going to wait here until Ethan comes back and then you are going to tell him the truth about what Gwen and Rebecca did .
J.T. : Look , I really do nt want to be in the middle of this . Please .
Theresa : J.T. , you are . You are in the middle . You are smack dab in the middle . Look , you are the man of my dreams , right ? You are the man who is going to change my life forever . Ugh , where is he ? Where is he ? Ethan , Ethan , Ethan , where are you ? Ethan , come on . Oh , all right , I m going . Ok , look . I ll be right back , all right ? Do nt you move -- do nt you move , because I m going to bring him back and you are going to tell him the truth . You re going to tell him how Gwen has been lying to him for years and years and years . I m going to get him back .
J.T. : Oh , man , Becks and Gwen are not going to be happy about this .
Fancy : Hello , yes , this is Miss Crane and I must make a call . I do nt care what Detective Lopez - Fitzgerald ordered . This is my suite . I m paying the bills and I want to make a damn call .
Fancy : I will get you for this , Luis . There must be another way out of here .
Fancy : Good , the fire escape . Hmm , piece of cake .
Luis : This is Luis .
Sheridan : Hey , Luis , it s Sheridan .
Luis : Sheridan . Oh , it is so wonderful to hear your voice .
Sheridan : Sorry if I m interrupting anything . But I -- I just had nt heard from you in a while and I was starting to get worried .
Luis : I m fine , sweetheart .
Sheridan : Have you heard anything new about Marty ?
Luis : I m getting close , really close .
Sheridan : Really ? Oh , God , I m afraid to hope .
Luis : Sheridan , you just need to take it easy , ok ? You do nt need to be upset all the time in your condition .
Sheridan : I know , but I ca nt help it . I m just so worried about you .
Luis : I m fine , Sheridan . Now , you just take care of yourself and that baby , ok ?
Sheridan : We are both ok .
Luis : Good . Oh shoot , I ve got another call . Sheridan , can I call you back ? This could be about Beth . All right . This is Luis .
Beth : Hello , Luis . Oh , it s so great to hear your voice . I missed you .
Luis : Beth ?
Beth : Yes , it s me , silly . Oh , your true love . The woman you were meant to spend the rest of your life with .
Man : [ Speaks Italian ]
Jessica : Uh , what did he say ?
Simone : He wants to kiss our hands .
Paloma : No , I think he is asking for our invitation .
Simone : Ok , now what ?
Paloma : [ Clears throat ] I m sorry , we forgot our invitations at the hotel .
Man : Sorry . No invitation , no party .
Simone : Well , that s it then . Let s just go back to the hotel .
Paloma : No , no , no . We are not going to give up .
Jessica : Hey , you heard the man . No invite , no party .
Paloma : There s our ticket inside . Come with me .
Fancy : Oh ! I swear , Luis , if I wreck these shoes , I will punch you right in the nose .
Fancy : [ Screams ] Ah ! Oh no , no , no , no , no , no ! I do nt believe this ! [ Groaning ] Oh , I ca nt go like this . I have to get another dress . Oh , my God , what else can go wrong tonight ? Damn you , Luis .
Luis : Where are you , Beth ? Where is my son ?
Beth : Luis , I know you are so anxious to be together . But I ca nt tell you , not just yet .
Luis : What are you talking about ? Why not ?
Beth : Do nt be so impatient . It s just not time , but soon , baby , real soon .
Luis : Yeah , you bet it s going to be soon , baby . I am going to find you , Beth , you and Marty .
Beth : And I want you to find us . I just have to take care of Fancy first .
Luis : Fancy has got nothing to do with this , Beth . You leave her alone .
Beth : How can you say she has nothing to do with this , Luis ? I see how she acts around you and you are sharing a hotel room .
Luis : I am telling you . You are wrong , Beth .
Beth : You know what ? Why do you let these blondes take advantage of you , Luis ? First Sheridan , then Fancy . They do nt love you like I do , ok ? They are just shallow , selfish bimbos . I am the one who truly loves you , Luis .
Luis : You are wrong , Beth . There is nothing going on between us .
Beth : Liar .
Luis : You need to listen to me . You leave Fancy alone , you hear me ?
Beth : Well , that s what Daddy said , too , but I just do nt believe either one of you .
Luis : Daddy ? What are you talking about daddy ? You -- you had a conversation with Alistair about me and Fancy ?
Beth : [ Gasps ]
Luis : Answer me , Beth ! If you talked to Alistair , that means that he is out of a coma . Where is he ? Beth , is Alistair behind this , dragging half of Harmony here to Rome ? What is he up to ? Beth ! Beth ! Damn it . Oh , God , it makes perfect sense if Alistair is behind this . I ve got to find out if he is still in that hospital , if he is still in a coma . Oh , man , I have a bad feeling that he is nt .
Alistair : Yeah , I think I m near the Pope s chambers . You say there is a secret door ?
Whitney : Yeah , you have to find the door . It is sort of hidden . It is in the wall just opposite the Pope s private chambers . And once you find that door , that will lead you to the tunnel and staircase .
Alistair : All right .
Chad : Sister , you said the deceiver was near . Where did you see him ?
Nun : I do not know , but he is here . I feel him so strongly .
Alistair : Someone is coming . I got to go .
Guard : You there , halt .
Nun : He is no monk . He is the deceiver !
Chad : Wait , we need to talk to you . You go that way and cut him off . I m gon na go through here .
Theresa : He is here , Ethan . I told you J.T. was here . He is going to tell the truth , how Gwen lied to you and her lies cost us years together .
Ethan : Theresa .
Theresa : Look , I know you do nt believe me . But you will , because J.T. is in there . He is right in there . Let s go .
Theresa : This is it . You are going to hear the truth . J.T. is going to tell you the truth .
Theresa : He was -- he was just here , Ethan . He was right here just a few minutes ago . Ok , he is here -- he is here somewhere , all right ? He is here ... somewhere .
Officer : Is there a problem , signora ?
Theresa : Is there a problem ? Yes , there is . There was a man , he was by the pay phone and he -- did you see where he went , by chance ?
Officer : He just made bail . He is gone .
Theresa : Wait , you are telling me this man made bail that quickly ? I mean , that s impossible . That s -- he was just here !
Officer : I m sorry .
Ethan : Theresa , look , if it was J.T. Cornell , sorry , he is gone now .
Theresa : No , no , he is not gone , Ethan . He is here . J.T. !
Ethan : Theresa .
Theresa : J.T. --
Ethan : Theresa ! I am tired of this . Listen , I am tired of this . No more . I do nt want to hear another word about J.T. Cornell , do you understand me ? I am done . I am going to get a cab .
Theresa : He was here . He was right here .
Gwen : J.T. , Tthank God you got out of there before Theresa could bring Ethan back to you .
J.T. : It s a good thing that bail money came in . I do nt know how you got that so fast , but thank you .
Rebecca : J.T. , just get your buns out of Rome , all right ? Or you are going to be in a lot more trouble than jail .
Gwen : My mother is right . You need to get out of that city as soon as you can before Theresa can track you down . J.T. , I want you on the first flight out of there . Do you understand ?
J.T. : Yeah , yeah . I understand .
Gwen : J.T. , this is serious . You need to get out of there before Theresa can find you .
Luis : So Beth s got it in her head that Fancy and I are having some kind of a relationship .
Sheridan : My God . Look , you know how crazy Beth is . You ve got to protect Fancy .
Luis : I m doing my best . But when I told Beth that there was nothing going on between me and Fancy , she said , that s what Daddy said , as though she had been talking with Alistair .
Sheridan : God , Luis , I had a dream that my father was nt in a coma and he came after me . I was so scared . I even took Eve , Julian , and Chris to the hospital with me to check on my father , to make sure he was there , that he was still in a coma .
Luis : Oh , my God , are you sure he is not faking it ?
Sheridan : I m pretty sure . I mean , Julian even stuck a pin in him and he did nt react .
Luis : But Beth said she talked to Alistair about me and Fancy being in a hotel room together . So that means it had to have been a recent conversation .
Sheridan : You re right . You know , I m going to go back to Linden Hill and check on my father to make sure that he is in a coma .
Luis : No , no , no , Sheridan , I do nt want you doing that , ok ? I do nt want you getting all upset in your condition .
Sheridan : Look , I m fine , Luis . If my father is out there , then you are in terrible danger .
Luis : Well , if your father is out there , then all of us are in danger .
Sheridan : You re right . That s why I m going to go check on my father , and if it s true , then I want you to come home immediately . I do nt want to take any chances .
Luis : You know what ? Maybe none of this is true . It could just be Beth talking crazy .
Sheridan : Could be . But let me make sure .
Luis : All right . But Sheridan , please be careful , ok ? I do nt want anything to happen to you .
Sheridan : I ll be careful .
Sheridan : I love you , too , Luis . Please , God , keep him safe .
Chad : I got you . Now , tell me where Whitney is . Where is she ?
Paloma : Do nt worry , we ll let you out after the party .
Simone : I do nt think that was a very good idea .
Jessica : We could have just paid them off to keep them quiet .
Paloma : Oh , what fun is that ? Do nt worry , we ll give you all our tips . Just enjoy your night off . Come on , amigas . Let s have some fun .
Simone : Why do I get the feeling this is going to be anything but fun ?
Luis : If Sheridan finds out that Alistair is not still in a coma , then all of us really are in danger . At least Fancy is safe for the night .
Woman : Miss Crane -- [ Speaks Italian ] What happened ?
Fancy : It s a long story , but please can you get them to open the salon ? I need a new gown , a new hairdo , the works . It s got to be fast .
Woman : Yes , of course . I ll see to it immediately .
Fancy : I am not going to miss that party .
Sheridan : Father , you re still here . Why do I get the strongest feeling that you are out there somewhere and as evil as ever ? Can you hear me , Father ? Do you even know that I m here ? What s this ? Oh no , it ca nt be .
Sheridan : Oh , my God . It s a mask .
Sheridan : It s not father . He is out there somewhere . Oh , dear God .
Gwen : To your husband s credit card .
Rebecca : Here , here . What would we have done without Julian s plastic ?
Gwen : I do not even want to think about it . Mother , look . I do nt know how much more of this I can take .
Rebecca : Oh , honey , drink up . J.T. will be on the next flight out of Rome and we will be safe .
Gwen : Oh , God , I hope you re right .
Rebecca : I am . J.T. would rather go to jail than face my wrath . Theresa will never get her hands on him .
J.T. : Oh , well , I will get out of Rome , but not before I go to this art exhibit and check out the bella signoras one last time .
Theresa : I can not believe that J.T. got away again . Am I wrong about fate ? Will I ever find a way to get Ethan back ?
Ethan : I got a cab . Let s go .
Theresa : I m begging you . You ve got to believe me .
Ethan : Look , if this is about J.T. Cornell , Theresa , I m sorry . I do nt want to hear it anymore .
Theresa : Ok , ok .
Ethan : Hey , listen , I am going to this gallery tonight for the opening of a new exhibit , all right ? Luis is going to be there . I want to help him track down Beth . Would you like to come along ?
Theresa : I would love to help Luis get Marty back .
Ethan : That s a yes , then .
Theresa : That s a yes .
Ethan : Great , come on . Let s go .
Theresa : But I will not give up on this . I m going to prove that Gwen was lying to you , Ethan . And I will get you back .
Woman : [ Speaking Italian ]
Man : Get in there and find some trays . Start circulating with drinks and hors doeuvres immediately . And rest assured , I will complain to the agency about this .
Paloma : Si , si , si .
Simone : I do nt speak a word of Italian . What if someone asks me a question ?
Paloma : I understand a little Italian because it s very close to Spanish . So if someone says something to you , just say si . It means yes .
Jessica : What if I want to say no ?
Simone : We really need to find this painting fast .
Beth : Where is that stupid Fancy ? Ok , hey -- watch that thing -- remember , as soon as Fancy comes in , you hit her . Do you understand ? As soon as Fancy is dead , then me and Luis and Marty , we can all be a family . It will be perfect .
Spike : Yeah , whatever you say .
Beth : What I say is Fancy has to die . Do you have a problem with that ?
Spike : No way , lady . Whatever you want , I do .
Beth : Ok , just keep your eyes open . I do nt want to miss the little bitch . You know what ? You are going to give new meaning to performance art .
Fancy : This will still get me into that gallery . And once I make myself a target , Beth will come out of the woodwork and Luis can grab her . He ll thank me for being there , too . Nobody is going to tell me what to do , not even Luis .
Chad : Tell me where she is . The innocent one , where is she ? I got him , Sister . What s wrong with you ? Tell me where Whitney is , monk . What is wrong with you ? Where is the innocent one ? Where is she ?
Monk : [ Speaks Italian ]
Guard : This is one of our staff . He is part of the Vatican .
Chad : Yeah , well he is also evil . He is the one holding Whitney hostage here .
Nun : No , no , no , he is not the deceiver . He is not the evil one we are looking for .
Chad : You sure ? He s not ?
Nun : You hear the guard . This monk work here in the Vatican . He is not the imposter .
Chad : Man , I m sorry . How do you say , I am sorry ?
Nun : Me spiacente .
Chad : Me spiacente .
Chad : This fake monk -- the evil one -- pulled a switcheroo .
Nun : [ Speaks Italian ]
Chad : Well , you said you saw him , the evil one . I saw that monk . I thought you meant him , so I chased him .
Nun : Hmm .
Chad : How d the evil one get away ?
Nun : He is very clever .
Chad : Where was the evil one going ?
Nun : To the Pope s private room . There are secrets in that chamber .
Chad : Yeah , my priest friend told me that when we were in the Pope s chambers . What are these secrets all about ?
Nun : In the wrong hands , they could destroy the church , destroy many people .
Chad : Whitney .
Sheridan : I knew it . I had such a strong feeling about this . Father is out there somewhere . He is not lying here . He is not in a coma . Oh , my God , what is he going to do to all those poor people in Rome ? I ve got to call Luis . I got ta warn him .
Sheridan : There s no signal . I have got to get in touch with Luis . His life is in danger .
Woman : [ Speaking Italian ]
Luis : Grazie .
Woman : Pity to cover such a beautiful face .
Luis : Yeah . Great , everyone here is wearing masks . Now how am I supposed to recognize Beth if she shows ? Well , hopefully Sheridan will call with some explanation as to why we were all brought to Rome in the first place .
Whitney : Oh , good , I m glad you are back .
Alistair : [ Disguised voice ] Yes , I was nearly caught .
Whitney : Caught ?
Alistair : In the Vatican , there are many enemies of the church there . Now , have you found something ?
Whitney : Yes , I found what you were looking for . It s right here .
Alistair : Excellent , my child .
Alistair s voice : Now I can destroy my enemies .
Alistair : [ Disguised voice ] Well , Whitney , where is it ?
Whitney : Well , it s right in front of you . It s right here .
Kay : I was right . She is a mermaid . And you re mixed up with her , are nt you ?
Fancy : There s no way Beth can hurt me .
Beth : Fancy has got to die , tonight .
### Summary:
| Fancy managed to figure out how to get to the art gallery opening today , although it looks like she will regret it later . Luis thought he had her taken care of , but leave it to her to foil all his plans . Beth and Spike lie in wait for her at the event , in disguise , of course . Paloma , Jessica , and Simone get all dolled up and head to the gallery , but are turned away since they have no invitations . However , they soon figure out a way to get in anyway - they hijack three waitresses , lock them in a closet , and go into the gallery dressed in their uniforms . Theresa finds JT in the jail , then stupidly leaves him alone while she goes and drags Ethan back to see him . However , the money Gwen sent for his bail comes through just then , and by the time she gets Ethan back there , he s gone . Ethan , of course , thinks she was lying , and she is depressed once again . When Ethan invites her to the gallery opening , however , she perks up , and even convinces herself she will still find JT . The fact is , he also has an invite to the shindig , and decides to go check out the women before he hops a plane out of the country , so she just might . Whitney finds a clue in the painting , but not before Chad sees Alistair as the Monk go by , with the old nun screeching that he s the evil one . Chad gave chase and finally tackled him , but it turned out to be a real monk , while Al slipped away somehow . Beth called Luis to beg him to love her again , and makes the mistake of telling him Daddy told her there is nothing between Luis and Fancy , also . Alerted to the fact the old lizard is nt really in a coma , he calls Sheridan to warn her . She goes to the nursing home and pulls the Alistair mask off an unknown man , then realizes everyone is in a lot of danger . |

Lulu : Well -- oh , the -- the pie is not for me . I -- I mean , some friends and I were --
Mike : I m just teasing you , Lulu . I mean , not even I could eat all that . So , you and your friends enjoy , and be careful out there . You heard about what happened to Sam and Alexis , right ?
Lulu : No , what happened ?
Mike : Oh , they -- they were attacked on the docks last night . They re all right , but it was a pretty close call . It looks -- it looks like it might be the same guy that killed Georgie and Emily .
Lulu : Oh . Wow , I m -- well , I m glad Sam and Alexis are okay . Thank you for the warning .
Mike : Sure , honey . Bye - bye .
Lulu : Bye .
Logan : Lulu , I m in so much trouble .
Maxie : You know , I m glad you changed your mind and you called me to come over last night . But I can tell something s on your mind besides me .
Coop : I just keep thinking about Georgie .
Maxie : Yeah , me , too . But at least they re close to finding the killer , right ? I mean , if they tested for a D.N.A. match between Johnny Zacchara and the skin underneath Georgie s fingernails , and now the test has been stolen , that makes him look guilty , right ?
Coop : Yeah , right .
Elizabeth : Jake ?
Elizabeth : Oh .
Lucky : I wanted to stop by and check on you and Elizabeth . She was still at work .
Sam : Of course I do nt mind . I never would . It s actually , it s -- it s great . It s actually better than great . You know what ? Kristina is in the bedroom , and I m sure she d be really happy to see you . You want to go play ?
Cameron : Yeah .
Sam : Go ahead .
Lucky : So how did you sleep last night ?
Sam : You know , I -- I did nt even try . I -- I know you have officers posted outside , but I really ca nt stop thinking about what happened .

Lulu : Sorry I have nt returned your calls . I ve just been going to bed early .
Logan : Look , Lulu , please do nt lie to me . Okay ? Just tell me one thing . Are we over ?
Lulu : Oh -- I -- I do nt know what we are . We -- we seem to get things started , and then something stops us , and then we try again and then something stops us again .
Logan : Because of Johnny . Huh , because of Johnny . He s hurt and you re taking care of him someplace , are nt you ?
Lulu : Look , it s not what you think .
Logan : Lulu , it s all right if you are . It is . You know , I ve realized if we have a chance in hell of being together , I ca nt -- I ca nt control you or chain you to me . I just have to let you know that I m crazy about you . I am . And I hope that , you know , the feeling s mutual . It s called trust , and it s not something I m good at , but it s all I got here , so -- huh -- um -- I know I ve given you a lot of reasons to doubt me . But I m going to trust that no matter what , you know that Johnny s bad for you . And I m going to work at being somebody you can respect and one day trust back .

Maxie : Um -- are you allowed to just leave town when you re a cadet ?
Coop : Well , I do have an in with the police commissioner , do nt I ? Special dispensation for dating his beautiful daughter .
Maxie : Coop , I do nt really know if now s the best time . I came down on my mom for abandoning us , for abandoning Mac , and I would never want him to feel like that s what I was doing .
Coop : But I do nt think he would . I mean , if anything , he d -- he d like you away from all this -- safe . You know , we can get in the car this afternoon and just go .
Maxie : Today ?
Coop : Yeah , we can be in Montreal by dark .
Maxie : You want to go to Canada ?
Coop : Well , it does nt matter , all right ? I just -- I just want to feel free , and I want you with me . I started out in this town getting locked in a vault with you , and I want --
Maxie : Even then -- even through that dumb ski mask you were wearing , I could see in your eyes everything I needed to know about you . I would love to go away with you . How long do you think we d be gone for ?
Coop : Oh , we can play that one by ear .
Maxie : Lately , it just feels like my world has gotten so dark and small . It s like you re the only light left . I m going to go shower , and then run by my house and pick up a few things , and I ll be ready in a couple hours ?
Coop : Sounds perfect .
Maxie : Okay .
Coop : A couple of things I got to take care of myself . All right .
Maxie : Bye .
Coop : See you later .
Ric s voice : You never spent a summer in this house ? Sonny s voice : Yeah , I did , with my mother .
Ric s voice : Uh - huh .
Sonny : Your father must have been the landlord here .
Ric : Yeah , well , fine . If that works for you , that s fine . But how was your mother going to be able to afford to rent a place like this , Sonny ? You know how much this place was worth , even back then ? She was a single mother educated in Cuba . She was fortunate to have a job as my father s secretary , and even more fortunate to have fallen in love with him .
Sonny : That never happened .
Ric : Oh , yeah ? He got her pregnant .
Sonny : That s a lie .
Ric : You know what the sad part about this whole thing is ? Hmm ? My father really loved her .
Trevor : This is Trevor Lansing .
Jerry : [ French accent ] Moreau .
Trevor : I ve been expecting this .
Jerry : More like fearing it , I expect . Do you know how much time and money it s cost me ?
Trevor : Mr. Moreau , I do nt fear you or anybody else . I ve been looking into the explosion on my ship .
Jerry : Yes -- do nt waste your breath . I ve been looking into it , and we all know what happened . It s Sonny s pet thug , Jason Morgan , happened .
Trevor : Well , maybe you should have controlled the Spencer girl better .
Jerry : The offending , ineffectual parties have been terminated . Now , what can you promise me about yours ?
Trevor : It wo nt happen again , period .
Jerry : But I m afraid that wo nt be enough . There is always the Corinthos- Morgan franchise .
Trevor : Let s stop this , will you ? You and I need to meet .
Alexis : All right , Molly s sleeping and Kristina is right there , and there s Cameron !
Sam : Hey !
Lucky : Get her !
Alexis : Run , run , run , run , run , run , run , run ! Faster ! You better run , Kristina ! He s coming ! It s a good thing she does nt know how close she came to not having a mother . Thank you once again for the rescue . All right , look , I feel a little uncomfortable , a little anxious about leaving . This is going to be a very quick trip .
Sam : I m here .
Lucky : Yeah , me , too . My advice is try not to be afraid . I mean , that s what this freak wants . He gets off on it . I mean , the text messages -- they re not about fair warning , they re about keeping you feeling helpless , afraid of your own shadow . Just -- you know what ? Use it against him . Be prepared without being reckless . You can count on us . We re going to find the guy .
Alexis : I get that intellectually . It s just everywhere else , I m a little shaky .
Sam : Just be careful , please .
Alexis : I will , I will . All right , so if the kids need anything , you call me .
Sam : Nothing , go . I m here .
Alexis : All right , fine .
Sam : Go .
Alexis : Okay . All righty . I m gone .
Sam : Huh .
Alexis : See you later .
Sam : Bye .
Lucky : What s this , huh ? What s that ? What do you think of that ? Boo ! Why are you so fascinated with Cameron s hat ?
Sam : The hat -- um -- this hat reminds me of my brother , Danny . He never went anywhere without his red baseball cap . No , he always approached life with so much wonder and -- and love . You know , it was -- it was just the way that he was . And for long stretches of my life , Danny was the one person that I could always count on . I loved him , he loved me , and he was the one guy that I thought I would never lose . I just -- you know , I hate -- oh , I hate feeling helpless .
Lucky : Hey , what s this really about ?
Sam : Fear . Okay , no . Terror , I guess . I -- I guess I m just -- I m a little terrified .
Lucky : Okay , of what ?
Sam : Of losing you .
Jason : What are you doing out of school ?
Michael : Oh -- well -- I had a free period , and I wanted to come see Dad . I have nt talked to him in a while . Nobody has . Have you ?
Jason : You know how your dad stays out of touch with all of us sometimes . I m sure he s okay .
Michael : So you re not worried ?
Jason : Only when I have to be .
Michael : The man who tried to kill Mom is still out there . He already hurt Emily and Leticia . I mean , why has nt someone tried to stop him ? Why have nt you tried to stop him ?
Jason : Is that why you were trying to take this ?
Alexis : Well , if Sam had nt come along , I obviously would nt be sitting here right now .
Jerry : I -- I know , I know . It must have been a horrible experience for you .
Alexis : Oh , it was an eye opener .
Jerry : I really should find ways to stick closer to you . You know , to -- to ward off the shadows , that is .
Alexis : Actually , I m here for the opposite reason , because I am taking over as D.A. while Ric is gone , temporarily . But because of that , I wo nt be able to take on any private clients until he s back .
Jerry : Oh , come on . Come on , does anybody really need to know if we continue our -- our relationship , so to speak ?
Alexis : It would put us in an awkward position .
Jerry : Well , are there really any other kind , darling ?
Alexis : If you were to do something , say --
Jerry : Naughty , illegal ? Irreversible , reprehensible ?
Alexis : Just to name a few .
Jerry : Yes .
Alexis : The simple solution would be for me to just -- to find someone to distract you from getting into trouble because should you get into trouble I , of course , would not able to represent you because it would be a terrible conflict of interest .
Jerry : Terrible .
Alexis : I -- um -- have to go . I have a meeting .
Jerry : Oh , but I ll -- I ll walk you over . Good .
Alexis : I can do it myself .
Jerry : No , no , no -- consider it mutually beneficial . First of all , you ll have an amazing bodyguard , and then I ll have the delightful distraction to keep out of trouble a little while longer .
Woman : Ahem -- the usual ?
Ric : Um -- you ?
Woman : Yes , me .
Ric : Well -- I m sorry , when you said you collected the mail for the people who lived in my old family house , I just assumed that you were their personal assistant or something .
Woman : No , nothing quite so grand . This is my real job . In the summers , I earn extra money cleaning that house .
Ric : Oh .
Woman : So , the usual ? Coffee , one sugar , milk , not cream ?
Ric : Yeah , that was -- that was pretty amazing you re able to do that , just know how I took my coffee by looking at me .
Woman : Yeah , well , comes with the territory .
Ric : Is something wrong with your lip ?
Woman : Oh -- um -- I was so busy listening to the ocean on the walk to the bus last night that I tripped and fell .
Ric : Oh .
Woman : I m clumsy like that . Always a cut here , bruise there . I m -- I ll go get your coffee .
Leo : You know , if you go running down the hall popping open the stitches I put in , you re going to make me look bad . You do nt want to do that , now , do you ?
Elizabeth : I m sorry . I was just having such a bad dream . I heard Jake yelling for me , and I jumped out of bed and ran down the hall like I do at home . I -- I -- it was just a reflex or sleepwalking . I do nt know what it was .
Robin : Well , we could give you something to calm you down .
Elizabeth : I took a sedative and it made the dreams worse . And then it was harder for me to wake up . I m just -- I -- I do nt -- I do nt know , I do nt know .
Robin : Well , I do . You ran into a burning building to save your baby , and you re having a little posttraumatic stress from it .
Leo : Hey , you know what ? Let me -- let me see about a different kind of sleep aid . Maybe something that ll just help calm you down and not affect your sleep as much , okay ?
Elizabeth : Okay .
Leo : Okay .
Robin : I ll stay with her for a while .
Leo : Yeah , I appreciate it . All right , I ll see you later .
Elizabeth : I guess I m such a mess , right ?
Robin : No . You re a mother . And -- well , with any luck , in about nine months , I ll be one half as good as you .
Elizabeth : You re pregnant ?
Robin : Yes , yes , yes , but do nt say anything , okay ? Nobody knows .
Elizabeth : Oh ! So you finally found someone to donate sperm after all ?
Robin : In a manner of speaking , yes .
Patrick : I need a duty nurse for O.R.
Epiphany : Will there be a patient in there , too , or just you ?
Patrick : Is it cold in here , or just you ?
Leyla : Actually , I think it s me . Our little tryst in the exam room got me a suspension .
Woman : You must be here on business , then .
Ric : You know , just the business of discovering myself . Why ?
Woman : It s the way you re dressed . Like a bright , new , sharp , shiny pencil .
Ric : How am I supposed to be dressed ? Like a -- a crayon ?
Woman : Why not ? We re casual here .
Ric : Oh . It d be a slightly worn crayon
Woman : Yeah , with a peeled label .
Ric : Blue .
Woman : Just blue ?
Ric : Well , cadet blue .
Woman : Hmm -- no , sky blue . Strong , but still warm , somehow .
Trevor : Cup of coffee , please .
Trevor : Cup of coffee , please . I want to have a chat with my son .
Woman : Yeah .
Jerry : At last count , I m not sure how many sides you ve been batting for , but I know that D.A. Lansing had high hopes of getting the goods on Michael Corinthos Jr. But Sonny boy had already discovered that you were one of my merry men at the Metro Court hostage crisis . Is nt that right , Three ?
Coop : What do you want ?
Jerry : Someone with enough dirt that I can hold over their head so they can help me with a new venture .
Coop : Well , I ll have to get back to you on that .
Jerry : Oh , well , that s cheeky for someone with as much to lose as you do .
Coop : Maybe I m just tired of living a lie .
Jerry : Talk like that , and you ll come off as someone who s just tired of living , period .
Elizabeth : Yeah , I remember you telling me that you and Patrick wound up together the night of Georgie s funeral .
Robin : Yeah . Interesting night for a child s conception , right ?
Elizabeth : I think it s perfect . Life from death . A child was made by two people who love each other .
Robin : Who are nt together anymore .
Elizabeth : Yeah , but do nt you think this is going to change Patrick s whole attitude a little ?
Robin : No . I do nt know . I do nt know . I m just -- I m so confused , you know ? Eventually , it s going to be obvious that I m pregnant , and Patrick s going to ask questions , and I m going to have to lie . I want this baby so much , but I m going to have to tell the father of my child that it s not his . Does that make me an awful person ?
Elizabeth : Okay . You asked for my opinion , so I m going to give it to you . The truth has an ugly way of coming out in the end anyway . Tell Patrick that he s the father . It really does change a person .
Jason : I -- I do nt even know what to do . I mean , you re breaking every rule here , Michael .
Michael : You re going to tell , are nt you ?
Jason : No , first I want you to tell me why . Why -- why -- why did you want this gun ?
Michael : I wanted to protect my mother and my brother . It s what you and Dad use to make people go away , is nt it ?
Lulu : That was beautiful .
Johnny : I hope you brought some food . I m starved .
Lulu : Logan knows that I m helping you . But he does nt know where we are , so he wo nt bother us .
Johnny : And I m supposed to trust Logan ?
Lulu : No , you re supposed to trust me .
Lulu : Logan is nt who everybody thinks he is .
Johnny : So you re right about him and the rest of us are wrong ?
Lulu : He thinks that you re all against him .
Johnny : We are , and with good reason .
Lulu : He does nt want to lose me .
Johnny : No man in his right mind would .
Lulu : Um , I went by my -- my brother Lucky s and he was nt there , so I snuck in and grabbed some of his clothes . How are you doing ?
Johnny : Fine . Fever s gone .
Lulu : Yeah , but you re still weak . You should probably rest a while longer . Do you think you ll be okay alone while I m gone ?
Johnny : Big plans with Logan ? He s no good for you . He s a lot better for you than I am , but he s no good .
Lulu : Why do you say that ?
Johnny : Why do you want to question it ?
Lulu : I did nt know that you played piano .
Johnny : Yeah , I have nt in a while . My mother made me start lessons when I was 5 . I hated it at first , but then I realized music was a place I can go and get lost , you know ? I stopped playing after my father killed my mother and eventually picked it back up again . He kind of left me alone when I played . It s interesting -- it s almost like it calmed him down . Trevor hated it .
Lulu : Why ?
Johnny : I do nt know . But I think there s a lot about Trevor I do nt know .
Trevor : Richard , I m going to give you 50 % more than the current market value for those piers .
Ric : What part of Skye gave them to me do nt you understand ?
Trevor : You and Skye had a great thing going , did nt you ? Too bad it turned to nothing . But then again , I sort of expected it would . Do you -- do you really know a good thing when you see it ?
Ric : If this is your idea of winning me over , it s not working .
Trevor : So what are you going to do with those properties ? You going to let your brother sell coffee from them ? You going to build your own version of Port Charles Coney Island ?
Ric : Well , I know what you want to do with it .
Trevor : Do you really ?
Ric : Mm - hmm .
Trevor : I want to continue growing my kingdom .
Ric : Yes , an empire filled with guns and drugs and God knows what else , all for the glory of Johnny and the Zaccharas ?
Trevor : And Trevor Lansing .
Ric : No , mostly Trevor Lansing .
Trevor : Hear me , Richard . You re my son . Whatever you help me build will one day be yours .
Ric : Huh . Trevor , come on -- is that your best ? I mean , is that your best shot ? That s your best angle , huh ? I m going to do what I want to with this property .
Trevor : So tell me . What are you going to do -- give them to your brother ?
Ric : I do nt know , maybe . I thought about it -- maybe .
Trevor : Before you do that , why do nt you walk back out in the snow and take another look at the house where you grew up ? Yeah -- really look at it . And think about what happened in there and what it led to . You could give 20 times more than the real estate value of those piers to your brother and he would still spit on your grave .
Ric : Yeah , unlike you who spat on me in person when I was a child , right ?
Trevor : Oh , Richard . Every sap feels sorry for himself . You want to be treated like a man , then act like one -- stop crying about your childhood !
Ric : Okay , conversation s over .
Trevor : Huh ? Have the guts to take control of what Skye gave you .
Ric : Huh -- what s that supposed to mean ?
Trevor : You have nt even transferred the properties into your name . You have nt signed the documents . Let me warn you about something . Somebody could come along and steal those documents and sign his own name to them , put a cap right in your head , and drop you off the Port Charles pier into the harbor .
Sam : What I said about losing you -- it did nt really come out the way that I wanted it to . I -- I know we are only being casual . I mean --
Lucky : No , we re way past casual .
Sam : Yeah , um -- okay . I m just saying that there s nothing really set in stone , there s no tattoos yet or -- huh .
Lucky : Does it have to be ? I mean , we re not in high school .
Sam : No .
Lucky : We re adults .
Sam : We are .
Lucky : We re human .
Sam : Yes .
Lucky : If we have problems , we deal with them and right now -- you know what ? Problems aside , I want to be with you . I want to see where we can go .
Sam : Whew -- good . Me , too .
Jason : Look , your father and I have made choices for ourselves . I mean , some -- some good choices , some bad choices , but all any parent wants is for their -- for their kid to have something better than they did , okay ? We want you to make the best choices . We want you to have a happy life and we re always here to help you do that , but using a gun ? No matter how good you think the reasons are , that is not the good choice . Look , I know you know this is not a toy , Michael . I know you see what a gun does to people on TV , in the movies , on those video games you played . I know --
Michael : Blah , blah -- I ve heard this all in school . I do nt know how to use it and I could get hurt or hurt somebody else .
Jason : Well , then maybe you need to be quiet and hear it from me ! Look , I -- I think it s great that you want to protect your mother and your brother . It s not great that you want to get your hands on a gun to do that . You re -- you re old enough to understand what happens to a person when they get shot . You re not old enough to understand what it can do to you , how it can affect the rest of your life . You have no idea . Your father does nt want you to have a gun , I do nt want you anywhere around guns , okay ? Holding a gun does not make you a man . Go back to school , you learn something , you do something nice for somebody . Are we okay ?
Logan : Mr. Baldwin , what police evidence are you going to accuse me of stealing this time ?
Scott : I m just looking for Lulu .
Logan : What do you want with Lulu ?
Scott : Well , we got an A.P.B. out on Johnny Zacchara . The D.N.A. test results are missing from the station . He was there , his attorney , Lansing , was there , so one of them could ve stole the results .
Logan : What if I told you that I saw Lulu , I followed her and she s with Johnny ?
Scott : Then I would expect you to tell me .
Logan : Even if she never forgave me ?
Scott : She would nt have to know .
Logan : Well , I d know , and I m trying to get Lulu to trust me again .
Scott : And I m trying to solve some murders here . Now , where did you follow Lulu to ?
Logan : I did nt -- I have nt seen her all day .
Scott : You re lying -- now , tell me .
Woman : Can I get you anything else ?
Ric : Hmm -- it s amazing . 10 minutes with my father and I feel like my entire miserable existence with him flashes before my eyes .
Woman : I m sorry .
Ric : Mm - hmm .
Woman : It s not right -- family should love each other no matter what .
Ric : Yeah . Is that what your family does ?
Woman : Did . My family died when I was young .
Singer : Right on living
Ric : I m sorry .
Woman : Look . Whatever reason you came here , just forget it for a while .
Ric : Hmm .
Woman : Go take a walk on the beach .
Ric : It s windy .
Woman : Huh -- so ? Do nt resist it . Play with the wind like a -- a kite does . Maybe it ll give you a whole new perspective on things .
Singer : Cause the best has yet to come
Patrick : Hey . I m sorry . I -- I never thought any damage would come from -- what did Ford say exactly ?
Leyla : Well , I -- I got two weeks suspension without pay and a permanent mark on my record .
Patrick : All right , well , I ll talk to him .
Leyla : I really do nt think it s going to do much good .
Patrick : How can I make this right ?
Leyla : I do nt know . I mean , he did say something about disciplining you , too .
Patrick : Wait -- how did he even find out what happened in -- between --
Leyla : I think he followed the telltale trail , Dr. Drake .
Leo : You got to learn to pick up after yourself , Drake , you naughty boy , you .
Cassius : Hey , I found these in the supply closet over on five , Dr. Drake -- or should I call you Dr. Feelgood ?
Patrick : You guys are hilarious , really funny .
Leyla : Dr. Feelgood .
Patrick : Really funny . Do nt you think they re funny ?
Epiphany : All right .
Leyla : Uh - huh , really .
Epiphany : Now that everyone has had their five minutes of fun , let s remember that this is a hospital and there are patients that need tending to . Are you getting paid to smile or work ?
Cassius : Oh , it s so good to have you back , Nurse Johnson .
Epiphany : I never went any place . And I certainly did nt break down and go to pieces over the death of my son and need your help to put me back together again , however grateful that I might be if that were to happen .
Cassius : Your secret -- it s safe with me . Right ?
Jason : Uh , how s Elizabeth ?
Epiphany : That information is only available to family members . But , if a family member were to ask that question , I would tell them that she is mending physically but that she needs something to keep her mind occupied so that she can rest .
Jason : Thank you . And thank you for what you did for Elizabeth s son that night in the E.R.
Epiphany : Just doing my job .
Jason : And I m doing mine . I m looking into Stan s death .
Leo : Hey , Patrick , let me ask you something .
Patrick : Yeah ?
Leo : What do you think if I were to ask Elizabeth Webber for a -- a drink or something ?
Patrick : Elizabeth Webber ?
Leo : Yeah , man . She s -- she s beautiful , she s -- I like -- I think --
Patrick : She s a mother of two .
Leo : So ?
Patrick : So ? You re not going to be going for drinks . You ll be taking home chicken in a bucket , tripping over toys as you make your way to bed to go to sleep . And then you ll be chained to life , forced to make all the mistakes that your parents did . But if that s what you want to do , go ahead . I would personally never do that to a child .
Leo : You know what that is ? That right there -- you know what that is ? That s your bachelor brain talking , you know , because if you were in that position , maybe you d feel a little bit differently , you know ?
Patrick : Okay , well , you know what I do know is that I m never going to find out , so that s it . Go ahead .
Robin : Whew .
Ric : Okay . Is this better ?
Woman : Oh .
Ric : Hmm ? Huh ?
Woman : Oh , my God . Well , it s a start .
Ric : Yeah ?
Woman : Oh , whoa , whoa .
Ric : What , what s wrong ?
Woman : Wait a minute .
Ric : What , I got something on me ?
Woman : You did pay for this , did nt you ?
Ric : Yeah , of course I did . What -- what do I have ?
Woman : Um -- the tags are still on it .
Ric : I knew that . Okay .
Woman : Oh , whoa , whoa , whoa , no .
Ric : Wait -- I ll get it .
Woman : No , no , no ! No , no , no .
Ric : I ll get it . Let me get --
Woman : No , let me --
Ric : I ll get it , I ll get it . Stop , stop . I m very ticklish . Do nt do that , do nt do that .
Woman : I got it , I got it !
Ric : Okay , you got it ? Got it ? Okay .
Woman : Hold on , okay .
Ric : All right .
Johnny : What s wrong ?
Logan : What the hell is this ?
Logan : What d you do ?
Maxie : Ah !
Elizabeth : I m back .
Kate : If you see Sonny , could you just tell him that --
Sonny : Tell him yourself .

### Dialogue:
Hattie : I d say this report is very incomplete . It says nothing about the andre dimera who is cold and cunning , not worth the powder to blow him to hell con man that he is . Andre dimera , aka alfie , you ve made an appointment to see the eminent dr . Evans for some help , and , unbeknownst to you , here s hattie . Yeah , oh , my . Revenge is sweet . It is so sweet . [ Beep ] Would you please send in mr . Dimera ?
Andre : Are you ready for me ?
Hattie : Mm , yes , boy , I am more than ready for you .
Lucas : Right , so you did-- you did call the cops , right , chloe ? All right , thank you . I mean I , thank you , I do nt know what I would ve done without you . The cops are probably going over that place with a fine - toothed comb right now . No , I m not drinking alcohol . I m drinking water . That s it -- it s just water . Waking up in bed with a dead body is very sobering . I think it was natural causes . It had to be natural causes . I did nt do anything to that woman . I did nt even know she was there . I would never hurt her . I mean , all right , I pray that i did nt hurt her , but if I had sex with her -- if I had sex with anjelica -- I did nt know it . I thought I was making love to adrienne .
Bonnie : Wow , this sure is a step up from statesville . [ Giggles ] Except I wo nt be doing the dusting and the cleaning in here . [ Laughs ] And it wo nt be long until I m the lady of the house , and then I ll finally have what i was supposed to have with mickey if that bitch had nt taken what was mine .
Maggie : What bitch ?
Hope : You re officially driving me crazy . Seriously .
Rafe : Really ?
Hope : Checking your phone every two minutes is nt gon na make myron call any faster .
Rafe : I know .
Hope : This is a one - shot deal . We need to give myron all the time he needs to make sure that the evidence he s trumping up against abe is convincing .
Rafe : Okay , well , let s just hope raines buys it , okay ? And god only knows what he would do if he figures out that we re double - crossing him .
Hope : Yeah , what could go wrong ?
Rafe : What could go wr-- ? You kidding me ? Myron , okay , the guy s nerves are nt exactly made of steel , and he -- raines already threatened him . He knows what they did to abigail . And it is not good .
Hope : We need to risk it . Rafe ...
Rafe : I know .
Hope : Raines was your brother s partner . He s been playing us , eli , and the fbi for months . And you know what ? Today it ends .
Rafe : Yeah .
Hope : As soon as raines tries to plant that phony evidence on abe , we have grounds for an arrest .
Rafe : Yes , arrest--
Hope : Commissioner .
Raines : Take this . What s going on here ? What arrest are you talking about ?
Gabi : [ Screams ]
Male announcer : Like sands through the hourglass , so are the days of our lives .
Raines : Did I hear you two talking about an arrest ?
Rafe : Yeah , as a matter of fact , you did cause , well , we just got the forensics report back on the kubiak case , and we got him dead to rights . So we re just waiting for the ada report to come back .
Raines : Can you tell him to get a move on ? Cause I m not happy about the amount of open cases we have .
Hope : Well , unfortunately , sir , here s another one . A suspicious death at the salem inn .
Rafe : Okay , but we just got that one , so .
Raines : Just came in , huh ?
Rafe : Mm - hmm .
Raines : Suspicious death at the salem inn .
Rafe : Yes , sir .
Raines : And you two are just sitting around jawing ? Can you get to work ? Geez .
Hope : I hate him . I hate him .
Rafe : Yeah , but just picture this . Picture him in a cell with a really big , burly cell mate , okay ? What do we have on the salem inn case ?
Hope : Okay , let s take a look here . Uh , there was anonymous call to 911 . Woman claiming there was a dead body in room 2116 . A patrol car was dispatched .
Rafe : Yeah , I told officer roy to go over here .
Hope : Body found in the bed . 50s , blond ...
Rafe : Yeah .
Hope : Oh , my god .
Rafe : What ?
Hope : The room was registered to adrienne kiriakis .
Bonnie : Maggie . Is that a new top ?
Maggie : Sonny gave it to me last christmas .
Bonnie : Wow , he has pretty good taste .
Maggie : He said you helped him pick it out .
Bonnie : Yeah , well , that was so long ago , you know ? I got ta tell you , this chemo-- my memory is not what it used to be .
Maggie : Of course .
Bonnie : But I guess that means I have good taste too , right ? [ Laughter ] I do love that color on you .
Maggie : Thank you . So who was the bitch you were talking about when I came in ?
Bonnie : Did I say bitch ?
Maggie : Mm .
Bonnie : Ooh , no , I do nt like that word . Sisterhood , and all that , you know ?
Maggie : Ooh , well , you were nt very sisterly just now . Um , I mean , you said the bitch was gon na pay for what she took from you . So who is she ? And what did she take ?
Lucas : Listen , I know that . Uh , I m gon na have to call you back , okay ? [ Beep ] So how of that did you hear ?
Justin : I heard you talking about adrienne .
Lucas : You did ? That s it ?
Justin : Is nt that enough ?
Lucas : Yeah .
Justin : Lucas , look at yourself -- you re unshaven , you re hung - over , you re talking about the girl who got away .
Lucas : Do nt start .
Justin : I m not judging . I m just saying you have to pull yourself together . And drinking is not gon na help .
Lucas : I do nt need any advice from you . You re the man who stole adrienne away from me .
Justin : That s not what happened .
Lucas : Really ? That s not what happened ? A couple of days ago , everything was fine . Everything was perfect , and then , all of a sudden , out of the blue , she dumps me and goes back to you ? I m not buying it .
Justin : It s called denial .
Lucas : It s called the kiriakis playbook .
Justin : What ?
Lucas : All of a sudden-- all of a sudden , my life goes off the rails , and adrienne s gone , and then I wake up with A ...
Justin : Wake up with what ?
Lucas : It s just the kind of thing that happens when a kiriakis wants you out of the way , right ? You re doing this to me , are nt you ? Are nt you ?
Hattie : Oh , would you be more comfortable on the sofa ?
Andre : Oh , oh , no , I did nt come here for therapy . I ve already been through that . No , I came here for a certificate that states that i am sane and able , like kate , to run the dimera board .
Hattie : Well , you would nt expect me to sign off on your certificate unless I was persuaded that you are sane . Is nt that why you came to me ? Because I have a spotless reputation , because I ca nt be bribed , because this woman could never be sweet - talked into doing something that she knows is wrong ?
Andre : No .
Hattie : No , I know there are some gullible women who would do anything that a man said just because he asked it , but I m not one of them .
Andre : Of course not .
Hattie : And I m not devious like your so - called wife who would enter into a fake marriage just for power and money .
Andre : Well , that s why I m here .
Hattie : Yes , to get the power and the money for yourself . We both know this is a complete scam .
Andre : I do nt think that has anything to do with my mental health .
Hattie : You know , those vows you took , they -- they meant nothing to you or to kate . You just said them so you could get whatever it was you wanted .
Andre : Dr. Evans , do you think we could get back your focus on the subject at hand ?
Hattie : Kate .
Andre : Hmm ?
Hattie : Kate is the subject . High and mighty kate . She was married to you , and yet she hurled herself at roman . What a skank .
Andre : Skank ?
Hattie : Skunk , I meant skunk , I meant skunk .
Andre : Oh , for god s sake , why are we talking about roman ?
Hattie : Because he deserves better , do nt you think ?
Andre : Are you all right ?
Hattie : Fine . Too much coffee . Shall we proceed ?
Gabi : You did nt have to grab me like that .
Eli : Yes , I did . Look , there s an on - going fbi investigation involving your brother s club . You were about to break the law .
Gabi : Well , I was scared .
Eli : I m sorry , all right ? I did nt mean to . I just really do not want you getting caught in the middle of all this .
Gabi : Look , my brother my brother sells you a bill of goods . He wanted to -- no , he needed to get into the witness protection , so he lied about abe being his partner to you and the bureau , and you bought it . Is there something else that i need to know ?
Eli : You know I ca nt talk to you about that .
Gabi : Why ? Because you ca nt trust me ? What is it ? Look , my brother was the crook . I m not .
Eli : Gabi , I ca nt talk to you about this because it s a open investigation . Hell , rafe s a cop . You know I do nt have a choice here .
Gabi : All right , yes , you re right . I m sorry . I m sorry I went off on you . I m just not at my best these days . It s just not fun walking around knowing dario did things to people , you know ? To abigail .
Eli : I heard abigail s gon na be fine .
Gabi : No thanks to dario . Did you also hear that she s back with chad ?
Eli : Yeah . Yeah , I did .
Gabi : So I push you away because I could nt walk away from chad , who ends up walking away from me . I guess , in the end , you must think that I deserve-- I deserve that .
Eli : No . I do nt think that at all .
Bonnie : I was talking about anjelica deveraux . Yep , I m still pretty angry that she tried to steal the intruder from me and jennifer .
Maggie : The spectator .
Bonnie : Huh ?
Maggie : You said intruder . Anjelica was trying to take over the spectator .
Bonnie : Well , yeah , that s what I meant .
Maggie : Uh , adrienne , could you put that down ? You re making me nervous .
Bonnie : Oh , right , sorry , sorry . All right , maggie , I can tell you re pretty upset about me moving back in . Do you have a problem with me for some reason ?
Maggie : As a matter of fact , I do .
Rafe : I want a positive i d on that woman , like , 20 minutes ago .
Hope : Called adrienne-- it went straight to voicemail .
Rafe : Hmm . What ?
Hope : Out of the blue , adrienne dumped lucas and went back to justin .
Rafe : Well , you say she went back to justin , but she was still registered at the inn .
Hope : But maybe that s on me . I told justin to take it slow , to make sure it was what they both wanted . Maybe he stalled things .
Rafe : Well , that s all very interesting , but none of that gets us any closer as to why a half - naked strange woman was in adrienne s bed . [ Phone ringing ] Hernandez . Son of a bitch . They ided the body-- anjelica deveraux .
Hope : Son of a bitch .
Rafe : Cause of death ? All right , keep me posted . Well , they re doing the autopsy as we speak .
Hope : Oh , my god , this-- this is not good . Anjelica s sole purpose for coming back to salem was to get the spectator away from jennifer and adrienne , and adrienne in particular was not happy about it . That on top of the family history--
Rafe : Which was what ?
Hope : Anjelica and justin have a son together . Anjelica deveraux is alexander kiriakis birth mother .
Rafe : Oh , right , and adrienne and anjelica , they worked things out , they re fine ?
Hope : They may not have worked it out . They may not have worked it out at all --oh , god . I hope adrienne has nothing to do with this .
Bonnie : You know , maggie , if I ve done something to upset you , I d like to clear the air . I mean , I really want us to get along , one big , happy family .
Maggie : Do nt you think that s a lot to ask for ? I mean , you know how victor feels about you .
Bonnie : Um , not my biggest fan ?
Maggie : Adrienne , victor agreed you could come back here to make justin happy . I do nt think that he has had a change of heart when it comes to you .
Bonnie : Well , I ll just have to be on my best behavior then . And when victor sees justin and me together , parenting jackson--
Maggie : You mean sonny .
Bonnie : Well , yeah , I mean , that was a fine nickname for him when he was little , but he s all grown up now , and that s not important . What s important is-- is sonny is your grandnephew . Victor s flesh and blood . And that just makes us all family .
Maggie : Well , like you , i married into the kiriakis family . You re a johnson . I m a horton .
Bonnie : Meaning ?
Maggie : Meaning lucas is a horton . He is family to me . You treated him horribly , and I want to know why .
Justin : Lucas , for your own good , you have to accept adrienne s decision .
Lucas : I m not gon na accept anything , all right ? I m gon na get her back .
Justin : That s not going to happen . You need to know that yesterday adrienne moved back into victor s house . We re gon na be living there again .
Lucas : Adrienne was with you last night ?
Justin : Yes .
Lucas : Oh , my god , this ca nt be happening .
Hattie : I m gon na begin by asking you a few questions . Why do you hate women ?
Andre : What ?
Hattie : It s a very simple question -- why do you hate women ?
Andre : I do nt hate women . And why would you even say that ?
Hattie : Well , look at your track record . You re only in my office so that you can stab your current wife in the back .
Andre : You know , I have a good reason for that . And you even said yourself that kate was throwing herself at roman . It s all her fault . And no one respects women any more than I do .
Hattie : What about hattie adams ? What would she say about the way you treated her ?
Andre : How the hell do you know about hattie ? I make it easy to save $ 600 on car insurance ,
Lucas : A couple of days ago , everything was fine . Adrienne and I had a future together , and now my life is a complete mess .
Justin : Lucas , I did nt tell you about adrienne moving into the mansion to rub it in . I told you so you d see that it s a done deal , that it s time to move on .
Lucas : To what , what am i gon na move on to ?
Justin : I think you need to talk to maggie .
Lucas : Do nt tell me what to do . I do nt want your advice . I told you that .
Justin : I get that you ca nt stop thinking about adrienne .
Lucas : Well , thank you , I m glad I have your permission now .
Justin : But you should also think about all the other people who love you , lucas , like your daughter and your granddaughter .
Andre : I asked you a question . How do you know about hattie ?
Hattie : Hope brady talked about a woman she met in prison named hattie . Hattie had a very sad story to tell . It seems she d been talked into embezzling funds by a smooth - talking guy named alfie . And then later , when hope was going over some surveillance tapes , she was quite sure that you were alfie , that you were the one who was so vile to hattie . So what do you have to say for yourself ?
Andre : That I do nt think this has anything to do with my mental health .
Hattie : I do nt care what you think -- I think it does , and I m not gon na sign your little certificate until I get an answer .
Andre : It had to do with business . Nothing personal .
Hattie : You broke hattie s heart . She went to prison . You destroyed her life , and that s nothing personal ?
Andre : You re the one who seems to be taking this personally , and I have to wonder why .
Eli : Gabi , you were totally honest with me . I mean , you were completely upfront about how you felt about chad . I just thought that I could make you forget about him , but , well , clearly , I was nt up to the task , but--
Gabi : Eli--
Eli : No , look , that s on me . Not you .
Gabi : No , eli , you were-- you were so charming and fun and awesome . Honestly , I thought -- Id forgotten that that even existed . I just really thought that chad loved me .
Eli : Well , I watched the two of you together while we were all stranded on that island . Gabi , let there be no doubt in your mind -- chad did love you .
Gabi : Maybe . But , in the end , he loved abigail more . But hey , you know , I think it s better to know the truth , even though it hurts .
Eli : Yeah , well , hey , look , we ve all loved and lost . I mean , you re hurting now , but you ll love again . And whoever that guy is-- that s a lucky man .
Rafe : Oh , so it s not okay for me to check my phone , but you can check your watch every five seconds ?
Hope : That s right . Totally different .
Rafe : Oh , is it different ?
Hope : It is , hernandez , yes .
Rafe : Oh , really ? Okay , listen , we re gon na catch raines , and we re gon na take him down , all right ? [ Phone ringing ] Hey . [ Beep ] Hernandez . Yeah , you re set to go ? Okay , good . Text raines . Tell him you re gon na meet him at tbd . Okay . Game on .
Bonnie : I never wanted to hurt lucas . I think the world of him . He s such a loving person .
Maggie : That s exactly my point -- he was wonderful to you . He loves you so much . Look , I m not naive . I know you ca nt control who you love . I know that you and justin have a lot of history together . I m not angry that you chose justin . I m angry at the way you treated lucas . You dumped him . You made it hurt more than it had to . You were cruel .
Bonnie : Let she who s without ... remember mickey ?
Maggie : Remember mickey ?
Bonnie : Mm - hmm .
Maggie : What kind of a question is that ? He was my husband-- the father of my children .
Bonnie : Right , and I know the heart wants what it wants . Now , my heart wants justin . Your heart wants victor . Just like it used to want mickey .
Maggie : It s hardly the same thing . Mickey died .
Bonnie : You see , that s what I m saying . It s possible to love more than one man in a lifetime . And I used to love lucas , and now I love justin .
Maggie : I ca nt help feeling that this was rather a sudden change of heart . Maybe you should think about your moving back in here until you are sure that your heart wo nt just suddenly change back .
Bonnie : You know , I m wondering if this is really about justin and lucas and my heart , or maybe it s that you want to be the only queen of this castle .
Maggie : What ?
Bonnie : Mm - hmm .
Justin : Everything okay in here ?
Hattie : Well , maybe I am taking this personally . Maybe I do feel protective of hattie because of our vague physical resemblance , and maybe I feel sad for her because of the pain you caused her .
Andre : Mm . Well , being that you have taken this personally , and you seem to be rushing to judgment , perhaps I should be looking for another doctor , one who is less prejudiced .
Hattie : No , no . You should think about your track record . I mean , the board is nt going to approve your sanity unless you re evaluated by somebody who is above reproach . And that would be me .
Andre : And you think you can be impartial ?
Hattie : Oh , well , yes , I do . Let s continue .
Andre : Okay . But I m not talking about hattie -- not one more word .
Hattie : Okay , well , then , why do nt you start by telling me about your relationship with your mother ?
Andre : [ Laughs ]
Rafe : I m gon na text eli and tell him that myron s on the way , ready--
Hope : Commissioner .
Raines : Hey .
Hope : Something else ?
Raines : Yes , I wanted an update on the body at the salem inn .
Rafe : Yeah , well , the body has been positively ided . It s anjelica deveraux .
Raines : I assume she s related to jj and your friend jennifer .
Rafe : Yes .
Hope : She was jennifer s mother - in - law .
Raines : So I can assume she s gon na create a fuss over this investigation just like she did mayor carver s arrest . [ Phone ringing ] Oh . [ Beep ] Raines . Yep , I ll be right there . I want you to interview adrienne kiriakis immediately .
Hope : I think it s premature . We do nt have the autopsy results back yet .
Raines : You do nt get paid to think . You get paid to follow orders . Do it . I want a full transcript on my desk when I get back .
Hope : And , with any luck , that ll be 10 to 20 years from now , sir .
Rafe : Damn it , this deveraux investigation comes at a really bad time . We should be tailing him right now .
Hope : Tell you what , you get in touch with eli . Tell him that raines is on the move . I ll try to track down adrienne .
Rafe : Hey , before you go--
Hope : Okay , and keep me posted about everything .
Rafe : Can I just-- one kiss for good luck .
Hope : Later .
Rafe : Come on .
Hope : Later , let me know !
Bonnie : Well , everything s fine , honey . Maggie and I were just clearing the air . You know what they say about two women in one kitchen , and maggie s so used to being the queen bee around here .
Maggie : That s not what I was talking about , justin . I was saying that I was nt happy the way adrienne treated lucas . And I m also worried about the very abrupt u - turn she made coming back to you .
Justin : Maggie , I appreciate that this might seem abrupt , but it s what we both want .
Maggie : I do nt mean to interfere .
Bonnie : Oh , maggie , we know you interfere out of love .
Maggie : Right . How did nicole s hearing go ?
Justin : She got custody of holly .
Maggie : Oh , thank god . I just ca nt wait for that little girl to get back in this house .
Justin : Yeah . And maggie , I know that are worried about lucas . I m afraid I have some bad news . I was just talking to him . Yeah , he s taking this really hard . He s falling apart .
Bonnie : You know , I just need to come out and just say it . It s over . ( Vo ) more doing chores for mom
Rafe : Hernandez . Dario , where the hell are you ? Yeah , well , you should feel terrible about what you did to abigail . Yeah , I know , bro , we know it s not abe , okay ? What ? Are you kidding me ?
Gabi : Oh , there you are .
Man : Hey , I have a delivery for dario hernandez .
Gabi : Uh , yes , I m his sister -- I can sign for that .
Man : All right .
Gabi : Here , anywhere ?
Man : Just right there . Thank you .
Gabi : Thanks .
Man : Enjoy the rest of your day .
Gabi : You too . Okay , dario , what did you send yourself ?
Maggie : I m not surprised . Adrienne and I were just talking about what lucas is going through .
Bonnie : You act like I wanted to hurt him , and I didnT. You know what ? We just all need to pray that lucas can get his act together .
Justin : Excuse me . Oh , I got ta take this . I ll be right back . [ Beep ] Yes ?
Maggie : Um , adrienne , could you get that ? I wanna make sure that everything is ready for holly .
Bonnie : Well , does nt the butler answer the door ?
Maggie : It s henderson s day off . I m sorry , I did nt realize that going to the door was beneath you .
Bonnie : It s fine . I ll do it .
Hope : Adrienne , hi .
Bonnie : Hi to you , hope brady .
Hope : May I ?
Bonnie : Sure .
Hope : Thank you .
Bonnie : Fancy face . Oh , um , maggie s in there . I mean , I m sure all you hortons are circling the wagons , worried about lucas and all .
Hope : Adrienne , actually , I m here to see you . It s about a police investigation .
Andre : You know , I always felt that the key to unlock the mystery of who is andre dimera-- I think it lies in my tortured , dickensian childhood .
Hattie : Okay , I think that s enough for today .
Andre : You did nt buy a word of that , did you ?
Hattie : I m not as gullible as hattie adams is .
Andre : Few are . So why do nt you just sign my certificate , and I ll be on my way ?
Hattie : Oh , I m afraid it is nt quite that simple . And first , I m gon na have to review my notes and analyze my findings .
Andre : But I do nt have time for you to review and to analyze .
Hattie : Yes , but this happens on my schedule , not yours .
Andre : Dr. Evans , you know , the longer that kate is ensconced in dimera , the harder it s going to be for me to convince the board to let me back in .
Hattie : Yes , I understand your problem , but my problem is I take my job very seriously . And I ca nt sign off on your certificate here until I m 100 % certain , but you , of course , are welcome to see another doctor and start from the very beginning .
Andre : No , no , I d rather have your name on the certificate . Besides , as you said , people know you as always being fair and honest . Keep me posted .
Hattie : I will be as fair and honest with you as you were with me .
Bonnie : A police investigation ? I do nt understand .
Hope : Anjelica deveraux was found dead in your bed at the salem inn . Can you shed any light on what happened to her ?
Justin : You need to know that yesterday adrienne moved back into victor s house . We re gon na be living there again .
Eli : Hey , I got your text . And myron s on his way to meet with raines .
Rafe : Yeah , well , more news . I just spoke with dario . We might not need myron .
Eli : What ?
Rafe : Yup , he says he feels terrible about what happened , and he wants to make amends .
Eli : And how does he propose to do that ?
Rafe : Said he sent himself a package to tbd . Said it incriminates raines .
Eli : Oh , yes . Looks like we re home free .
Raines : Controlling your police investigation is worth it for a piece of the action , dario . Hell , my salem pd pension is nt enough to retire on , at least not in the style I d like to become accustomed to . But with this haul of the counterfeit money , oh , man , I can get myself a place on the cayman islands . Really wish you had nt heard that .

You are a helpful, respectful and honest assistant. Your task is to summarize the following dialogue. Your answer should be based on the provided dialogue only.
### Dialogue:
Zende : I did nt expect to feel this way . It s kind of overwhelming .
Nicole : You re telling me .
Zende : Seeing Rick and Maya with their little girl ... what you did was so incredible . I had no idea what it really meant to have a baby until then .
Nicole : I do nt think anybody does . Until it happens to you .
Zende : I should nt have left you .
Nicole : You came back . That s all that matters .
Sasha : I m glad Nic s all right and the baby s healthy and everything , but I just do nt see what that has to do with Zende and me .
Julius : I heard that , uh , Zende was at the hospital for the birth .
Sasha : Yeah . He told me .
Julius : Now , you understand what that means ? I mean , he saw Nicole give her sister an incredible gift .
Sasha : I m glad .
Julius : He was deeply moved , Sasha .
Sasha : I just said that s great .
Julius : Somehow I find that hard to believe .
Sasha : It s true . Zende saw Nicole having a baby . He witnessed the miracle of birth , an experience that can completely change people s lives .
Katie : Brooke !
Brooke : I - I m sorry .
Katie : What the hell ? ! What the hell are you doing in my bedroom ? !
Bill : Katie , listen , it s not --
Katie : What is she doing here ? !
Brooke : I m leaving .
Katie : You were hiding under the bed ? !
Bill : It s not in any way what you think .
Katie : It s not ? ! Because I m thinking that you were standing here half - naked and my sister just crawled out from under the bed !
Brooke : No , I - I know . I do nt know why I did that . It was ridiculous , really . It s just I heard you coming and I knew what this would look like --
Katie : Stop . Stop it . Stop talking . I do nt want to hear any excuses . It is obvious that you were seducing my husband and that s what I walked in on . So , that s what this is . I caught you in the act !
Bill : All right , listen . Listen , I will give you that it looks bad , but it s not .
Katie : [ Chuckles incredulously ]
Bill : In fact , it s nothing .
Katie : Nothing ? !
Brooke : I did nt even know he was here . I was bringing something for you , something special for tonight , something that you could wear -- a beautiful dress . I will show you . It s right over here in the closet . He surprised me when he came out of the shower . Anyway , I got this for you . It s gorgeous . I left you a little note .
Katie : So , you were nt trying to seduce my husband ? You were just doing something nice for me ?
Brooke : Exactly .
Katie : You re gon na have to do better than that , because I m not buying this excuse for one second .
Julius : Zende may have a whole new appreciation for Nicole s decision to be a surrogate .
Sasha : Yeah , I think he s starting to see the baby thing in a whole new light .
Julius : And he may be feeling that , uh , ending it because of the pregnancy was a mistake .
Sasha : Good to know .
Julius : They re still in love . And he may be feeling that , um , maybe he should nt have left her .
Sasha : But he did leave her . For me .
Julius : Listen , now that Nicole has had the baby , I think you should do the honorable thing and just back off . I mean , you and Zende had your fun , but it s over . You ve got to go your separate ways .
Sasha : I m afraid that s not possible , dad . I m not going anywhere .
Julius : And what s that supposed to mean ?
Sasha : I m pregnant .
Zende : When you put that beautiful little girl into Maya s arms , that s when I realized I was the one being selfish . You said that we could work it out , everything would be fine .
Nicole : And now it is .
Zende : What you did was so amazing . I mean , the generosity , the strength you showed . I have never been more in awe of anyone . And I d give anything to have you back .
Brooke : I knew you were going to the museum benefit , and I saw this gown . It s beautiful .
Katie : I have a whole closet full of beautiful gowns , Brooke .
Bill : Brooke was being thoughtful , Katie .
Katie : Thoughtful ? Is that what you re going with ?
Bill : You re getting upset for no reason .
Katie : No reason ? ! She was hiding under our bed ! So , you thought you d surprise me ?
Brooke : Yes .
Katie : So you knew I would nt be home .
Brooke : I did nt think anybody would be home .
Katie : But you could nt be sure about that . There was a chance that Bill might be home . See , this is what you do . This is classic Brooke . You do nt mean to hurt anyone or cause any trouble , but things just happen to you . You did nt come over here looking for Bill . You came over to bring me a dress to be nice . And the minute you step foot in my bedroom , out comes my husband fresh out of the shower . But that s not your fault . No , no , no , no . That s just your luck . And the most insulting part of this is the two of you are standing here refusing to acknowledge it !
Bill : Katie , what are you doing ? Where are you going ? Katie !
Julius : Am I supposed to believe that Zende is the father ?
Sasha : Of course he is .
Julius : Well , I had to ask .
Sasha : No , you did nt , because you would nt have asked Nicole that question .
Julius : Nicole would nt have gotten herself in this position . If that s what s really going on here .
Zende : I hope you understand . I felt like I was losing you . I did nt know where I fit in all this .
Nicole : You had a right to feel that way .
Zende : No , I took the easy way out -- leaving , getting involved with Sasha . I am so sorry I put you through that . It was a mistake .
Nicole : It did hurt me when you got involved with her .
Zende : I am sorry . I feel bad about that , too . I mean , do nt get me wrong . Sasha s a great person . She was there for me . But it hurt you . You know , the truth is , I wish it never happened . But it does nt change the way I feel about you , Nicole .
Bill : Katie .
Katie : Oh , good . You re here . I poured you a drink . And one for you , too , because I m sure as hell not gon na drink by myself .
Brooke : I do nt want that , and neither do you .
Katie : Oh , if there was ever a time for a drink , now is that time .
Bill : Do nt do it , Katie .
Katie : Why ? You get to do what you want to do . I should get to do what I want to do !
Bill : This is not what I want !
Katie : Of course it is ! Because you re never going to convince me that a man of your intelligence ca nt see something that is so obvious !
Bill : Brooke told you why she s here ! You saw the dress !
Katie : If nothing was going on , why did you panic when I came in the room ?
Brooke : I was nt thinking . I just reacted .
Katie : Because you felt guilty . Admit it .
Bill : Because she did nt want to upset you !
Katie : She did nt want me to see the look on her face , because she was thinking about all those times the two of you had together in Abu Dhabi and Monte Carlo and aspen and all those amazing times you spent together in our bed !
Brooke : Katie , stop .
Katie : No , you stop !
Brooke : [ Sighs ]
Katie : You stop trying to convince everyone that I m delusional and that my suspicions are crazy when we both know they re not !
Bill : Listen to me . I understand that you re angry and what you saw set you off , justifiably . Brooke should nt have hid under the bed . I should have told you she was there . But now here we are . And when you get like this , you re not reasonable .
Katie : No ! No ! This is not my problem . You allow it . You allow every excuse , every justification ! You allow it !
Bill : Nothing happened .
Katie : [ Scoffs ] [ Chuckles ] That s right . Nothing happened . She did nt rip your towel off . She did nt throw herself at you . She just wanted one little moment . That s it . Just to feel that thrill . Because she s an addict and she ca nt help herself .
Bill : Give me the bottle .
Katie : No .
Bill : We have to talk , and we ca nt talk when you are drinking !
Katie : What are you gon na say ? Hmm ? You gon na defend her ? Because I ll definitely need a drink if that s what you re gon na say .
Bill : I am not gon na let you do this to yourself , Katie .
Katie : You know , I did nt want a drink tonight . Did nt even cross my mind . All I wanted to do was go out on the town with my husband . I did nt want to feel like this . And yet here I am . You put me in this position . You should have told her to leave as soon as you saw her in our bedroom , but you did nt . And that s why I have to . Get the hell out of my house .
Katie : [ Sighs ]
Bill : Katie , open the door !
Katie : No !
Brooke : Please do nt do this . You and Bill had such a wonderful evening --
Katie : What are you still doing here ? ! I told you to leave !
Brooke : I will leave once you come out and you give Bill the bottle .
Katie : Just go away !
Brooke : I should go .
Katie : [ Sighs ]
Bill : Katie , Brooke is nt leaving ! Now open the door so we can talk this out !
Katie : What s the point when you refuse to see what she s doing ? Just go away .
Julius : So I m to believe that you are pregnant with Zende s child ?
Sasha : I found out last night . I took a home pregnancy test .
Julius : While it may not be the best relationship , but I am starting to talk to my family again , so I can confirm this , you know .
Sasha : They do nt know .
Julius : [ Scoffs ] Of course they do nt .
Sasha : I mean , unless Zende told them .
Julius : He knows ? Wait a minute . What am I saying ? Of course , he knows . [ Chuckles ] I mean , how else were you gon na hold on to him ? I mean , it s no -- no coincidence that the moment that he decides to express that he wants to get back with Nicole that you decide to announce that you re pregnant with his child ! How could you do this to Nicole and Zende ? ! They re just on the verge of getting back together !
Sasha : I do nt think that s gon na happen .
Julius : Yeah . Well , maybe it wo nt . Or maybe Zende wo nt care any more about your pregnancy than he did Nicole s . But if he s the kind of man that I know him to be , you re right . He wo nt turn his back on you . He ll do what he has to do to take care of his child , even if it means it ruins his life .
Zende : I did nt want to break up . I wanted everything to be the way that it was before you agreed to be Maya s surrogate . I wanted everything to be simple and uncomplicated . And if I had any idea that this would happen , that -- that I would feel this way being in the room with you giving birth , the way that I feel with you right now , I would have never left your side .
Nicole : I did nt blame you for leaving me , Zende .
Zende : Because you re a good person .
Nicole : So are you . You were honest with me from the beginning .
Zende : And I want to be honest with you now . I never stopped loving you , Nicole . Your goodness , your beauty -- I need that . I need you in my life . I left because I was confused , but not anymore . No , I learned something important today . And it may not be simple and uncomplicated , but I know I can get through whatever the future throws my way if you are by my side . I love you , Nicole . Will you give me another chance ?
Nicole : Yes . [ Chuckles ] [ Sighs ] I still love you , too .
Bill : Katie , you have me for support . Think about our life , our family , everything we ve built . You have brought so much to my life . I love you , Katie . And I will love you each and every day until the day I die .
Katie : Your daddy is so silly . What are we gon na do with him ?
Katie : What s wrong with me tonight ?
Bill : Oh , look at that . Mommy spilled a little bit .
Katie : Where are you going ?
Bill : Come here .
Katie : Where are you going ? We re having dinner .
Bill : Go with Daddy .
Will : No !
Bill : Yeah , we re gon na go wash your car .
Will : No !
Bill : I do nt want to lose you again , Katie .
Katie : You wo nt . I promise I wo nt let that happen .
Brooke : Maybe I should go .
Bill : She wo nt come out .
Brooke : Has she ever done this before ?
Bill : No .
Brooke : So it was my fault .
Bill : I told you it s not .
Brooke : I was hiding under the bed . I mean , what was I thinking ?
Bill : And you could have been standing in the middle of the room , Brooke , and Katie would have reacted the same way .
Brooke : No , that s not true . Things have been better with us , and she was nt drinking .
Bill : Now she s locked in the bedroom with a bottle of whiskey .
Brooke : I think you should go back up there and try to reason with her .
Bill : There is no reasoning with her when she s like this .
Brooke : [ Sighs ] This does nt make sense . I mean , Katie is always the most level - headed person that I know .
Bill : It s one of the reasons I married her . My hot temper -- she helps keep a lid on it . I depend on her for that .
Brooke : And she depends on you .
Bill : [ Sighs ] No matter what I do , it does nt seem to help .
Brooke : You re trying , and that s what s important . Katie s lucky to have you . I - if you need anything , just let me know , okay ? If you need help with will or with Katie , I m here .
Bill : Thanks .
Brooke : Take care of her . I am worried about her .
Bill : Me , too .
Nicole : I told myself it was over , to stop thinking about you . I missed you so much .
Zende : I missed you , too . You know , uh , you said , uh , our relationship was stronger than I knew and that we could get through anything .
Nicole : We can .
Zende : I lost you once . I wo nt lose you again .
Nicole : I m not going anywhere .
Zende : I hope that s true . I let circumstances stop me from having the future that I wanted with you . But nothing s gon na stop us this time . But there s something I have to tell you , and it s not good news . We ca nt let it change things for us .
Nicole : It wo nt . Look at us . There s nothing we ca nt handle .
Zende : It s Sasha . When I went to see her to tell her that I love you and I wanted to have a future with you , she gave me some truth of her own .
Nicole : I ll bet she did . Zende , you ca nt let that get to you . She does nt want to lose you . She ll say things and ... what did she say ?
Zende : She said she was happy I was here to witness the birth of the baby , that it was good for me to see how magical it is to bring a child into this world .
Nicole : Sasha did ? Why would she say that ?
Zende : Because it s gon na happen to us next . Sasha s pregnant .

| Zende tells Nicole that he did not expect to feel this way ; it blew his mind . He never should have left her . He has never been in more awe when he saw that baby in Maya s arms . Sasha tells Julius that she is glad the baby is healthy and all . Julius finds it hard to believe that Sasha can be that happy about this and that it probably means that Zende will get back with Nicole . Clearly they are both in love . So she and Zende had their fun but now it is over . She remarks that she is not going anywhere , she is pregnant . Katie goes berserk that here her husband is half naked and Brooke pops out from under the bed and that is what she walked in on . She caught them in the act . Bill says he knows it looks bad but it is not what she is saying . She is getting upset for no reason . Brooke says she did not even know Bill was there . Katie says Brooke is better than that . She does not believe she was not trying to seduce her husband but came over to do something nice for Katie . Such luck that Brooke has , just dropping by and suddenly finding Bill standing there without his clothes .and now the worst part is trying to make Katie believe this . Zende tells Nicole he is so sorry what he put her through . It was a big mistake . Sasha is a great person but it does not change how he feels about Nicole . Katie goes downstairs and pours herself a drink . Bill tries to stop her . She says he got to do what he wanted to do so now she will too . So Brooke needs to stop trying to make people think she is delusional . Bill says when she gets like this they can not talk . Nothing happened . She wo nt let Bill have the bottle . She says she does not want to feel like this yet here she is . He should have told Brooke to leave the minute he found her in the bedroom . She tells Brooke to get the hell out of her house . She locks herself in her room and wo nt let Brooke or Bill come in , tells them to go away . He refuses to see what Brooke is doing , so there is no need in talking . Julius says he is starting to talk to his family again so he can confirm this pregnancy . Sasha says they do not know yet . He thinks it is awfully convenient that the minute Nicole has the baby and gets back with Zende that Sasha finds out suddenly that she is pregnant and yes Zende will do the right thing and stay with her . Nicole tells Zende that she told him from the beginning how she felt so she does not blame him . He says he loves her and wants another chance . He thinks he can get through anything now . They hug .

You are a helpful, respectful and honest assistant. Your task is to summarize the following dialogue. Your answer should be based on the provided dialogue only.
### Dialogue:
Ridge : I get the feeling you did nt sleep well last night .
Steffy : No . I m assuming hope did nt , either .
Ridge : It was just a kiss , right ? You did nt mean for that to happen , did you ?
Steffy : Dad , I dont-- I do nt want to talk about that right now , okay ? I have a lot of things to focus on , including this fashion show .
Ridge : What is that ?
Steffy : Sally s sketches . I thought she was gon na come through for us . This ? Like , I do nt know what to do . I -- I do nt know .
Ridge : Did you talk to her about this ?
Steffy : Yeah , I tried . It s weird . She does nt seem like herself . Not only am I losing confidence in her , I think she s losing confidence in herself .
Sally : Uhh !
Quinn : Totally makes sense now why things did nt seem quite right between you and sally when you were here over christmas .
Wyatt : Oh , mom , do nt make me regret telling you .
Quinn : What ? I m just saying . You did nt seem all lovey - dovey like a newly engaged couple should , and now I know why .
Wyatt : Okay . Sally already said that the slip - up was completely unintentional .
Quinn : Ha ! Are you kidding me ? You are discussing with your fiancée about setting a wedding date , and she calls you liam ? Her former flame and your brother ? I mean , that just speaks volumes to me . So where do things stand now ?
Wyatt : I do nt know . We have nt been spending a lot of time lately . She s been very busy working at forrester on steffy s new line .
Quinn : Ah , yeah , well , from what I hear , there have been rumblings that steffy is nt all that impressed with sally s design sensibilities .
Wyatt : What ?
Quinn : Not that I blame her because I ve always thought sally was a little bit tacky .
Wyatt : Mom .
Quinn : What ? It s true . It s also one of the many reasons why I believe sally spectra is not the woman for you .
Shauna : Oh , it s so good to see you . Are you sure you re okay ?
Flo : Mom , you ve got to stop asking me that .
Shauna : I know , but I m a mom , and moms worry .
Flo : Mom , stop . Physically , I am fine , and I m fine in every other way , too . A few weeks away and some intense soul searching really did me good .
Shauna : You mentioned how much that helped you when we were together at christmas .
Flo : Just gave me some time to reflect on this past year . I ve thought about reese and his lie about beth that I got caught up in , and becoming a logan . Reconnecting with wyatt .
Shauna : I can tell you have nt stopped thinking about him .
Flo : I ll always love wyatt .
Shauna : I know .
Flo : He s engaged to sally now , so ...
Shauna : For the moment . I have a feeling that things are about to change .
Steffy : You feel the same way I do , do nt you ?
Ridge : Oh , these look like spectra designs , not like ours .
Steffy : I know . I do nt know what to do . I tried to be supportive and encouraging , but I ca nt get through to her .
Ridge : Well , but you cant-- I mean , what do you think ?
Steffy : I do nt know . If anyone were to see these designs , I d be a laughingstock , and so would forrester creations . I ca nt let that happen .
Quinn : Sweetheart , look , I know you have feelings for sally . I m not trying to minimize that . I m just hoping that you pay attention to your instincts . Look , y - you ... you proposed to her out of guilt and impulse . You barely spend any time with each other , and her freudian slip , calling you liam , well , I think that says a lot . Besides , you do nt even really know sally . You ve never even met her parents .
Wyatt : Sally does nt even know where her parents are .
Quinn : Exactly . They walked out on her and her sister and never looked back , so have you ever asked yourself why ? Have you ever asked sally ?
Wyatt : What s your point , mom ?
Quinn : My point is sally grew up very differently than you did , and you do nt really know her . But flo , you two grew up together . You know exactly the kind of person that she is . And true , she s had one unfortunate misguided act where she was taken advantage of by reese buckingham . But hope got her baby back . Reese is in jail . So ca nt we just put all of this behind us ? Ca nt you just forget about the past and admit that you still love flo ?
Flo : Mom , I love you , but I know you and your feelings . You are , like , the queen of wishful thinking .
Shauna : Oh , honey , it s more than that . I heard things .
Flo : What things ? From who ?
Shauna : Well , mostly quinn . And it s clear that she s hoping that wyatt will come to his senses and not marry sally . Oh , and it was awkward at christmas .
Flo : What ? Between wyatt and sally ?
Shauna : Most of the family probably did nt notice , but quinn did .
Flo : Huh .
Shauna : Do nt give up on wyatt . And I am sure that quinn would tell you the same thing .
Wyatt : Wow .
Quinn : Hmm .
Wyatt : Talk about full court press , huh , mom ?
Quinn : Oh , I m just pointing out the obvious-- how truly remarkable flo is .
Wyatt : Oh , I m well aware .
Quinn : Yeah ? Then why do nt you do something about it instead of pretending with sally ?
Wyatt : I m not pretending with sally , all right ? I -- I -- I care about her .
Quinn : Enough to spend the rest of your life with her ?
Wyatt : I do believe that s what it means when you ask someone to marry you .
Quinn : Really ? Even though you spend less and less time with her ?
Wyatt : Okay . Can you stop ? I really do nt need this from you right now .
Quinn : Oh , ah , I m sorry . Am I hitting too close to home ?
Wyatt : No . You just-- you do nt know what you re talking about .
Quinn : Really ? I do know that , every time I mention flo s name , I could see the love and admiration you have for her in your eyes .
Wyatt : Okay , you know-- fine . Fine . You win , all right ? I -- I-- I admire flo . Okay ? I thought it was very brave of her to do what she did for katie .
Quinn : Yes . And for the logans . But see , I think she did it for you , too . I think she wanted to remind you who she is , the bighearted kind woman that you ve always loved . Honey , flo made a mistake . So did I , once upon a many , many times .
Wyatt : Mm - hmm .
Quinn : And I was forgiven by you . Why ca nt you do the same thing for her ? Why ca nt you just look past her mistakes and remember the woman that she really is ? The woman that you have always loved .
Flo : Mom , I know that you mean well , but I--
Shauna : You re not gon na throw in the towel .
Flo : No . Mom ... look . If sally is the woman that wyatt wants to be with ...
Shauna : You do nt believe that any more than I do , flo .
Flo : Does nt really matter what I believe . What matters is that I do nt want to interfere , which is why I ve kept my distance from wyatt . It s also why I ve kept my distance from the logans . I do nt want to complicate their lives any more than I already have . I also do nt want them thinking that I gave up my kidney to try to , like , erase my involvement in everything with beth .
Shauna : They know that . Maybe not brooke , but katie does , and so does wyatt . He knows your heart . He knows who you truly are at your core . You re a very caring , compassionate , selfless young woman , and that s who he fell in love with years ago and who he s still in love with .
Flo : Mom ...
Shauna : I m not saying he does nt love sally . But he definitely does not have the love that he has with you . You need to fight for him . Fight for the man that you re in love with . It s not too late .
Flo : What about you ?
Shauna : What about me ?
Flo : What about the man you re fighting for ? Is it ridge forrester ?
Ridge : How many times did she rework these ?
Steffy : A lot . And every time she does , it gets worse , not better .
Ridge : So what s going on with her ? Just the pressure getting to her maybe ?
Steffy : Like I said , I tried to be supportive . I tried to be encouraging . But I m gon na have to make a tough decision .
Ridge : What , whether to move forward ? You still believe in your line , do nt you ?
Steffy : Yeah , I do , but I m losing faith in sally . Like , thomas , he s totally committed to hope and hope for the future . I have nt seen his designs , but it seems like hope is pleased . Like this , we -- I do nt know . Maybe we could--
Ridge : You ca nt save this . Ahem . Hi .
Sally : Is that my sketch ?
Steffy : Yeah , sally .
Sally : What do you think ?
Ridge : I m not gon na beat around the bush , sally . These designs , they re just-- they re not good enough for this company .
Steffy : We might not move forward with the fashion showdown .
Wyatt : Okay , uh , mom , I ll admit that I might have-- I -- I probably overreacted about flo .
Quinn : Oh . W - wait . Wait , wait , wait , wait . Can you also admit that your proposal to sally , while noble , probably never would have happened if flo--
Wyatt : If you re trying to get me to say--
Quinn : All I m trying to say is I have known for quite some time that you ve had conflicting feelings about sally . Otherwise you would have put an actual ring on her finger . You would have made an actual wedding date , but you did nt do either of those things . It s like you re not even ... really engaged . You want to know why that is ? No . DonT. I will tell you why that is .
Wyatt : Great .
Quinn : Because you know that flo is the woman you want to be your wife .
Shauna : Ridge and I have been spending time together lately .
Flo : Which I m sure you just hate .
Shauna : Oh , it s been torture , but somehow I manage .
Flo : [ Laughs ]
Shauna : No , seriously , I have loved every minute that we ve been spending together . And he enjoys being with me , too .
Flo : I sense a but coming .
Shauna : No , no , no . It s , you know , it s , uh , ridge is dealing with a lot of family stuff . You know , he and brooke signed divorce papers . He has thomas with his issues and steffy s , so I made it clear to him that I m here for him as a friend , whatever he needs . And , you know , where that goes , it goes .
Flo : Where do you want it to go ?
Sally : So what do you mean , you might not move forward ?
Steffy : We ca nt use them , sally .
Sally : After all the hard work that I ve put in ?
Ridge : We appreciate your hard work , but these-- I m sorry . These sketches are just not up to our standard .
Sally : Okay . All right . Fine . Then I ll just go back to the drawing board . I ll make whatever changes you need me to make .
Ridge : Sally , I ve been a designer for a long time . Sometimes you just-- you re in a place-- it does nt matter how many times you go back to the drawing board . You just ... you ca nt fix these . It s not working .
Sally : So you re just gon na kill my designs , just like that ?
Steffy : Not just like that . I ve given you chance after chance .
Sally : Fine . Okay . I get it . You need me ... [ Sighs ] You need me to raise the bar . Fine . I will . But , steffy , this is our baby-- your baby . I mean , are you really just gon na give up just like that ?
Steffy : I do nt want to do that , but as co - ceo , I need to do what s best for the company . And letting these designs hit the runway is nt what s best for forrester creations . And honestly , sally , I m really worried about you . I m leah and that s me long before
Shauna : Oh , I love you so much , sweetheart . Nothing is more important to me than your happiness . And I truly believe you ll find happiness with wyatt . I bet you re hungry , so I m gon na go in the house and get us some lunch . I want you to think about what I said about wyatt .
Flo : Okay .
Wyatt : Here s an idea . How about we stop talking about my love life and talk about , I do nt know , anything else instead ?
Quinn : Like what ?
Wyatt : Uh , let s talk about your love life . How about that ? And let s not leave out any of the kinky details this time .
Quinn : Okay . Well , you asked for it . The many uses of a spatula .
Wyatt : Uh ...
Shauna : Am I interrupting ?
Wyatt : Oh .
Quinn : Yes .
Wyatt : Thank you . Thank you .
Shauna : Are you giving your mom a hard time again ?
Wyatt : She s giving me a hard time . She s the one--
Quinn : No , no , no , no , no . I am doing no such thing . I am merely imparting some parental perspective .
Wyatt : Oh .
Shauna : About my flo ?
Quinn : Mm - hmm .
Shauna : You two are still good together .
Wyatt : Okay . I should probably get going .
Shauna : Flo s in the guesthouse . [ Quinn gasps ] I know she would love for you to stop by .
Quinn : Oh , she s so close .
Wyatt : Stop . Between the two of you ...
Shauna : Go see her .
Quinn : Oh , sweetheart , you look so handsome .
Shauna : Huh .
Quinn : [ Sighs ]
Flo : I ... I ca nt believe this . I -- I never thought I was even gon na see you again .
Wyatt : So ...
Flo : And now here we are .
Wyatt : Yeah . And when my mom and i left vegas , I just-- I lost part of myself , the best part , the you part , you know ? And here we are . I ran into your mom . She said you were down here . Um ... have nt seen you around lately .
Flo : Yeah . No one really has . I was just kind of laying low . Decided I wanted to take some time to myself and reevaluate life , you know ? Think about what I want and where I go from here .
Wyatt : Yeah .
Flo : I ve really missed you , wyatt .
Wyatt : I missed you , too .
Sally : I do nt understand . I have poured all of myself into my work these past few weeks . I ve neglected everything else in my life , including my relationship with wyatt , and now you re saying it s just over ?
Steffy : I know you re disappointed . And if we do this , it s strictly a business decision .
Sally : But there s no way that we can salvage any of these ?
Ridge : No , there is not . How -- how could you ? What would you do ? There s -- there s nothing . Look , this is-- we re all creative people , right ? And sometimes you just-- you hit a wall , and things do nt come out the way you want them to , and -- and you just have to step away from it .
Sally : Okay . So ... what does that mean for me , then ? I mean , if this happens , am I -- am I gon na get reassigned to a different line ? Hope for the future , maybe ? Hope said that she wanted to work with me . I mean , I know that thomas is over there right now , but , I mean , I can contribute .
Ridge : All right . Let s -- let s not jump the gun on any of this . We have nt made any decisions . We just ...
Sally : On whether or not to let me go entirely ? Is that-- is that what you re thinking , of firing me ? Because if it is , then I really need to know that .
Steffy : Okay , calm down . Calm down .
Sally : Really , you re telling me that this might be the end for me , and now you re telling me to calm down like it does nt matter ? It does matter , okay ? Working here is everything to me . Forrester creations has literally become my entire life . I have given this my all every single day , and now you re saying that I might get the boot because my designs are just a little off ?
Steffy : Sally , I think the showdown is stressing you out . You re shaking . Your hands are shaking .
Ridge : Take a deep breath . Can you do that ? We all think you re very talented , but I think you need to go home , take a breath , and we re all gon na talk about this some other time .
Sally : Okay . What is wrong with me ?

Abigail : What is it ?
Chad : My feelings for her . Gabi .
Gabi : This can not be happening tonight !
Dario : What s wrong ?
Gabi : Okay , the lights in my bathroom have been flickering for a week and they just blew .
Dario : All the bulbs ?
Gabi : Yeah , every single one .
Dario : Well , go try another bathroom .
Gabi : Seriously ? I mean , Rafe s bathroom makes me look like the walking dead and there s not even a vanity mirror in there .
Dario : So go replace the bulbs in your bathroom .
Gabi : Dario , could you just please ? You know , you re -- you re --
Dario : I m -- I m -- I m what ? A guy ? You know it s funny how you think you can do anything your big brothers can do , except when it comes to the dirty work .
Gabi : It s not because you re a guy , it s because you re taller and even in my heels I ca nt reach the sockets .
Dario : No , I m sorry . There is no way I am messing up my suit . I got ta get to the club make sure everything s gon na go perfect .

Dario : Go grab a ladder . Get off my case .
Gabi : [ Laughs ] Look at you , Dario ! You re a nervous wreck !
Dario : The club has never hosted an event like this before . I wanna make sure nothing goes wrong .
Gabi : See , I do nt think you care about the club as much as you do about impressing Abigail .
Dario : Look who s talking about impressing . The only reason you re freaking out about bad lighting is because you want to impress Chad .
Eric : I m sorry .
Jennifer : For what ?
Eric : Kissing you .
Jennifer : I m not complaining .
Eric : I should nt have .
Jennifer : Why ? You should nt have what ?
Eric : I ca nt ... want you . Us ... I ca nt love you .
Claire : Jesus , Ciara ! What the hell ?
Claire : What are you doing here ? You said that you were going to grandma s !
Ciara : I - I - I was . And then I real -- I--
Claire : Okay , wait , wait , you what ? You forgot your favorite pillow ?
Ciara : You know what , Claire ? I live here ! And what the hell are you guys doing out in the living room ?
Claire : Okay , excuse me , but we thought we had the whole place to ourselves . Would you rather us do it in the backseat of a car ?
Ciara : Are you freaking kidding me ? ! You want me to decide where you guys do it now ? ! I do nt know , how about you guys do nt do it at all ? !
Dario : Why you doing that in here ?
Gabi : Because someone was so worried they d mess up their suit they could nt even help their little sister change a light bulb .
Dario : [ Speaks Spanish ] Do nt worry . I m sure you re not gon na scare Chad away if your lipstick is nt not perfect .
Gabi : You know , you re so wrong about Chad . I m actually -- I m getting ready for a date that I wanna look presentable for .
Dario : When did you decide to go with a date ?
Gabi : So now you care ? Abigail s cousin Eli . She kinda played matchmaker and forced us .
Dario : Probably so you could steer clear of her husband .
Gabi : No , there s nothing there . I ve already let Chad go .
Dario : [ Laughs ] Yeah , right .
Gabi : No , it s true . I ve decided to work on other opportunities . Like getting my business off the ground .
Dario : Hey , that is good and I am so proud of you for giving another man a chance .
Gabi : What about you ? I mean , you told Abigail you were showing up with a date . So how are you gon na explain flying solo ?
Dario : I ll figure something out . Besides , I do nt really need to worry about what I m gon na tell Abigail since I need to move on from her anyway .
Gabi : All right , well , how can you move on from something that never was ?
Dario : Like you and Chad ever had a real relationship ?
Gabi : Oh , we were going to and it would ve happened--
Dario : Until his wife came back from the dead .
Gabi : Well , at least I m not moving on from a secret crush .
Dario : Better in secret than if the whole town knows about it .
Gabi : Okay , yes , yes . We both have to move on from hopeless situations .
Dario : I m gon na try . Are you ?
Gabi : Yeah .
Abigail : Well , it s not that I do nt wanna talk about it , we re already really late .
Chad : I know , but the party is gonna -- can wait . This -- this can not . Please . Um ... when I-- when Gabi and I were kidnapped I told you I did nt remember everything because of the hypothermia . It was nt , um ... really true . I-- I remembered how I felt in that moment-- in that life or death moment , and I-- I knew that Gabi and I were still in love with each other .
Chad : And I know this hurts . And I m sorry .
Abigail : So , um ... what ? Are you , um-- are you leaving me for Gabi ? Is that what you needed to tell me ? Cause you wanna be with her and not me ?
Chad : No , I want to get over ...
Abigail : Mm - hmm .
Chad : Gabi . And I wanna be the husband and the father that I know you and Thomas deserve .
Abigail : I do nt understand--
Chad : I ve been ... holding in these feelings for Gabi and I feel like I ve been living this lie and it s eating me up . And ... look , I - I-- I want to continue to build our life together .
Abigail : How , though ? I mean , how do we build a life together when you love someone else ?
Chad : I m gonna-- I need to cut her out of my life .
Abigail : You re serious ?
Chad : I am . And it has to be done as soon as possible .
Abigail : Are you gon na tell her that ?
Chad : I m gon na find an opening at the party tonight and I will tell her everything that needs to happen . What ? Say something .
Abigail : I mean , Chad , even if you tell her that you-- [ Clears throat ] That you need to stay away from her , if you really love her--
Chad : I love-- I love you .
Abigail : Mm - hmm .
Chad : I love you .
Abigail : Okay .
Chad : Hey , and I know that with enough time and distance ... my love for her will fade , but , Abby , my love for you is forever .
Jennifer : You say you ca nt want me ... but that kiss proves you do .
Eric : I should nt have .
Jennifer : No , and I know . You say that you re never gon na be able to heal from all this . That you re never gon na be able to love someone again , but I know better . I do . Cause you re gon na come back to Salem and you re not gon na be bale to help yourself . You re going to choose life . I know you are . And I m gon na be there . I m gon na be waiting for you .
Claire : It s not like we need your permission !
Ciara : I never said you did .
Claire : You know , I am not surprised that you re totally freaked about me and Theo taking our relationship to the next level . Hell , you re probably already plotting to break us up .
Ciara : I am not , Claire .
Claire : Oh , come on . Do you think I m an idiot ? It s not like I do nt know that you still have feelings for him .
Ciara : I ca nt believe you re using that against me . I told you that as a friend .
Claire : Oh , right , a friend who s dating the guy that you like but were too messed up to admit it when he liked you .
Ciara : I know I messed up , Claire , okay ?
Claire : No , no , no , no . You may know it , but you have not accepted it . You know what ? Maybe that s the reason you came back here . Just to try and ruin our night !
Ciara : I had no idea that you and Theo were gon na be here , okay ? And I sure as hell did nt know that you guys were gon na be doing this !
Claire : Oh , jeez ! It is none of your business what we were about to do ! Bottom line , Theo is mine now and I m gon na give him what he needs whether you like it or not . So if you do nt mind , get the hell out of here !
Dario : Hello , wow . Mi hermanita es muy hermosa .
Gabi : Well , thanks to mi hermano for finally replacing the bulb in the bathroom .
Dario : Yeah , good brother would ve done it when he was first asked .
Gabi : Well , a good sister would nt have been so mean to you knowing that you wanted something you could nt have cause I know how that feels .
Dario : So you re saying we re both losers in love ?
Gabi : Ehh ... I m saying we still got each other .
Dario : And ice cream .
Gabi : Right and ice cream , but a little more and I ... probably would not fit in this dress .
Dario : Yeah , I was trying to find a way to make you smile again . I hate seeing you so sad .
Gabi : I m not the only sad one , am I ?
Dario : You know , I bet if we put our heads together , we could both be happy .
Abigail : So ... you love me , and you love Gabi , but you want to cut her out of your life because ... you do nt want to love her ?
Chad : No , I -- no , I-- I - I ... do nt wanna lose you . Okay ? I do nt wanna lose you . And that is why I had to tell you everything . And I had to get everything out in the open so that hopefully ... we can move-- we can move past this ... together . And I know this is confusing and I m confused , too , but-- baby , you got ta know that I only -- I only fell for her when I thought that you were gone . I did nt know you were coming back . I did nt know you were coming back . [ Abigail clears throat ] Okay ? And , um ... I thou-- I love you and I wanna spend the rest of my life with you and ... not only are you my wife , you re my partner , you re my lover , and , Abby , you re my best friend .
Abigail : And what s a best friend if you ca nt share your deepest , darkest secrets , right ?
Chad : I never wanted to hurt you .
Abigail : I got ta be honest , that , um ... it hurts , but , um ... [ Clears throat ] If we re being honest , I think I m not surprised . I think I kinda knew all along that you still had feelings for Gabi , just I did nt wanna believe it . So I know that it sounds weird , everything you just said , but I think ... I ll actually miss her friendship .
Chad : You do nt have to .
Abigail : Well , I mean , me having her in my life makes it pretty hard to cut her out of yours . So , I think that it s good that you re gon na tell her tonight because I think the sooner the better for all of us .
Chad : Um ... then I ll pull the car around .
Abigail : Okay .
Jennifer : Oh , hi , honey , Harold let me in . I was hoping you d be-- wow ! Look at you !
Jennifer : Oh , gosh . Oh , gosh . Baby , what s wrong ? What s wrong ? What happened ? What happened ? Oh , gosh . It s okay .
Maggie : Are you all right ?
Ciara : Yeah , I m fine .
Maggie : Seriously ? You wanna talk about it ?
Ciara : There s nothing to talk about . I do nt even have any right to be upset .
Maggie : Well , you are upset whether you have a right to be or not . So ... spill .
Ciara : I m in love with Theo and he used to be in love with me , but I pushed him away then Claire came in and took him away and grabbed him for herself . Just when I had realized that ... I had made a huge mistake .
Maggie : I see . Does Theo know that you know you made a big mistake ?
Ciara : He does nt have a clue . Julie told me to write a letter to him explaining how I feel since it s easier for him to understand things when it s written down .
Maggie : And what did he say when he read it ?
Ciara : I never gave it to him . I went back to the apartment tonight to do that , but when I walked in , I saw that he and Claire were on the sofa .
Maggie : Ooh . Okay , I get the picture . So I assume you left .
Ciara : I tried to , but they saw me and Claire got mad and then Theo got embarrassed and it s just a big mess now .
Maggie : I m sorry , honey .
Ciara : The thing is , I know Theo and he would never even consider going all the way if he was nt fully committed .
Maggie : Well , if that is the case , then there s nothing you can do .
Ciara : But she does nt even love him !
Maggie : And how do you know that ?
Ciara : Because I know Claire . She s -- she likes him , but who would nt ? I mean , to her it s just that he s hot and he s not high - maintenance and that he lets her have her way all the time .
Maggie : Oh .
Ciara : I mean , Theo should be with somebody that ... does nt treat him like a doormat and thinks that he s special and thinks about him all the time ... and not just herself .
Maggie : Someone ... like you ?
Ciara : Yes . But it s too late . He s with Claire now and I just have to live with it . And when I say live with it , I mean live with it because we all live in the same house together .
Maggie : Oh .
Ciara : Which makes this an even more completely messed up situation than it already is . [ Sighs ]
Abigail : Oh , God . Ugh . He says that he-- he wants to have a future with me , but I dont-- I really , I do nt understand how he thinks he s gon na just suddenly , like , get over these feelings that he has for Gabi .
Jennifer : I do nt think that it will be sudden , honey . But at least he s willing to do something before it s too late .
Abigail : Just so ironic . I feel like I ca nt even really be mad at him for telling me that he loves another woman because I m the one that set the whole thing in motion .
Jennifer : Hey , I would nt go that far , honey .
Abigail : No , Mom , it s true . I-- when I left Shady Hills , I had no intention of ever coming back here . I was completely content with everyone thinking I was dead-- including Chad and Gabi .
Jennifer : Yeah , but be grateful that he s being honest .
Abigail : I am . It just ... really hurts ... just knowing -- knowing that he loves her and to hear him just say it is -- is-- out of everything we ve been through I do nt think anything has ever hurt that much . [ Crying ]
Jennifer : I know , honey . I know . I know .
Dario : If you and I work together , I bet we could break Chad and Abigail up . Be there to pick up the broken pieces .
Gabi : No , you ca nt be serious .
Dario : Why not ? Chad would be free to be with you and Abigail could cry on my shoulder for as long as it took for her to fall for me .
Gabi : Dario , I doubt that would ever happen .
Dario : Thanks a lot .
Gabi : No , not because of you , because she loves Chad and I doubt she d consider even being with anybody else .
Dario : Look , she might when she realize that I am better for her than DiMera . And if she were to find him in a compromising situation-- say with you--
Gabi : No , now I know you re not being serious . Come on , you can not win Abigail s heart by scheming . You re too good of a guy to be going behind another guy s back , Dario .
Dario : What if that meant you ending up with Chad ?
Ciara : I do nt want Chad unless he chooses me and that will probably never happen .
Dario : Probably . So , you still think it s a possibility ? H ! Heartburn !
Maggie : Ciara , try not to be so judgmental of Claire . I mean , none of us are completely sure what another person is feeling .
Ciara : But I know what she s capable of . I ve seen her in action .
Maggie : Okay , by action do you mean you ve seen her be unfaithful to Theo ?
Ciara : No .
Maggie : Has she told you that she does nt love him ?
Ciara : No , but still--
Maggie : Honey ... I think you owe it to Claire to give her the benefit of the doubt , despite your own doubts she is family after all .
Ciara : You probably do nt think I should give Theo the letter , do you ?
Maggie : On the contrary . I think you ve been unfair to Theo by not telling him how you feel . I mean , you wrote the letter for a reason . Do nt you think he has a right to make up his own mind ?
Ciara : Yes .
Maggie : Well , I m sorry , sweetheart , but listen , um , I have to go . I would love to stay here and talk about this some more , but you need to think about what I said , okay ?
Ciara : I will . Thank you .
Maggie : Ohh . Oh , you re a wonderful , young woman , Ciara . With such a good heart .
Ciara : Thanks .
Maggie : And do nt ever be afraid ... of loving someone . Love you .
Claire : Hey .
Theo : Hey .
Claire : [ Chuckles ] So we re alone again . Thank God , right ?
Theo : Right .
Claire : Why are you standing over there ? Come here . So ... feel like finishing what we started ?
Theo : I do nt know .
Claire : What do you mean you do nt know ?
Theo : It just does nt feel like it did before . Maybe that s a good thing .
Claire : I mean , how is that a good thing ?
Theo : I mean , like , maybe ... Ciara walking in on us was a sign .
Claire : [ Laughs ] I think the only sign we need is a do not enter note on the door .
Theo : No , Claire , I did nt mean a sign like that , I meant ... what if we re not as ready to be together ... that way as we thought we were ?
Claire : Okay , wow . So now you do nt wanna have sex ? What is up with you ?
Jennifer : Honey , look at me . You re too upset right now . You do nt need to go to a party right now .
Abigail : Oh , no .
Jennifer : I ll stay here with you .
Abigail : No ... no , I know you re worried about me cause you think I m gon na fall apart , but I - I wo nt . I m a lot stronger than I was before . So , you know , whatever happens with me and Chad I - I can handle it .
Jennifer : If you say you can , I believe you .
Abigail : Yeah . He just -- he had a lot of faith in me to tell me the way that he feels and so I wanna honor that and I m not gon na let it break me .
Jennifer : You do realize when he cuts Gabi out of his life , that she s gon na be ... less in your life also ?
Abigail : I know . And all that s ... upsetting , too , but , um ... he s my husband .
Jennifer : Yeah .
Abigail : He s my family and I wanna do whatever he needs me to do ...
Jennifer : Mm - hmm .
Abigail : In order to get past his feelings for her .
Jennifer : That s right . That s most important .
Abigail : Yeah .
Chad : Hey , Jennifer . I , uh -- sorry , I did nt know you were here .
Abigail : I m such a mess . [ Chuckles ] I m gon na go fix my makeup and then we should probably get going . Okay .
Chad : I guess -- I m guessing she told you .
Jennifer : She told me . She told me that you put ... your life with her and Thomas ahead of everything else and ... she loves you so much .
Chad : I love her , too . And I ll do everything in my power to make her happy .
Theo : No , look , the timing just was nt right . But it will be ... soon .
Claire : Yeah . Yeah , no , I agree .
Theo : You do ?
Claire : Yes , I do . The timing was nt right . We wanted it to happen , but we rushed it , you know ? We should ve taken more time to plan . Make sure that everything was perfect .
Theo : Yeah .
Claire : Our first time should be magical . Like it is in the movies . You know , it definitely should nt happen here . Maybe we should go away somewhere . Maybe we should go to the green mountain lodge .
Theo : Okay , um ... but I thought we were gon na take our time to plan it--
Claire : I know , but we are planning . We are . And since the lodge books up fast , I think we should call as soon as possible and make a reservation .
Theo : Okay , but is nt it out in the middle of nowhere ?
Claire : [ Laughs ] Which makes it super romantic .
Theo : Claire , that-- that sounds -- sounds good and all , but--
Claire : I know ! I know ! Here s what we ll do , okay ? We ll take a road trip and we will make the lodge , like , our final destination . Yeah , so it s kind of like a metaphor for where we re taking our relationship . [ Chuckles ] Yeah , I am going to call right now . See how soon we can lock down a date . Oh , I can hardly wait ! [ Chuckles ]
Maggie : Eric ? This is a surprise .
Eric : I wo nt take up too much of your time .
Maggie : Please , sit .
Maggie : I heard you were released from prison . Uh , something about , um , saving the governor s daughter ?
Eric : I did nt do it expecting to be released .
Maggie : But how fortunate for you that it worked out that way . I understand you re back to take a job at he Horton center . People thought I should know in case I ran into you on the street .
Eric : Before anything I just wanted to make my intentions clear of why I came back .
Maggie : Okay , I m listening .
Eric : What I didnt-- what I m not gon na do is go back to where I was .
Maggie : Just stop . Please . I ve heard enough .
Abigail : You re gon na be fine , okay ? You nailed the press conference earlier . Tonight is gon na be a piece of cake .
Chad : Thank you for putting all this together . I do nt know what I d do without you .
Abigail : Yeah .
Eric : I ve upset you .
Maggie : No--
Eric : It s the last thing that--
Maggie : Stop . Stop . [ Exhales sharply ] If I m upset it s because you talk to me as if I do nt know what an amends is . I m an alcoholic , remember ?
Maggie : I got behind the wheel of a car and I almost killed someone ... but I got lucky . The person survived . That s the only difference between us . And my son ... hm . There is nt a day goes by that I do nt miss Daniel . I hate it that he s gone . But it does nt cause me pain to see you . I have no desire for you to throw your life away because my son lost his . What would be the point in that ? If nothing else , you owe it to Daniel ... and yourself ... not to waste this second chance you ve been given . And if everything that you do from this day forward ... makes the world a better place ... then that s all the apology that I ll ever need from you . Okay ?
Eric : [ Whispers ] Okay .
Maggie : Now , stop that . [ Laughs ]
Abigail : The place looks really great , Dario .
Dario : I m glad you think so .
Chad : Yeah , thanks for making it available for us tonight .
Dario : Anything for a good cause .
Gabi : Abby , you look amazing .
Abigail : Thank you . So do you .
Gabi : I m gon na go find my date , okay ?
Dario : You re right . I promise , no scheming .
Chad : I m gon na go find a private corner I can practice that speech .
Dario : Gabi was right . You look amazing .
Abigail : Well , you do nt look so bad yourself . Where s your date ? I wanna meet her .
Dario : She s not coming .
Abigail : What ? Why not ?
Dario : We broke up .
Abigail : Oh , Dario , I m sorry .
Dario : It s okay . Women come and go . It s just ... it s part of life .
Abigail : Well , I have a feeling that the right one is gon na show up very soon . She might even be here tonight .
Dario : [ Chuckles ] Maybe so .
Abigail : If you find her , let me know .
Dario : You ll be the first .
Abigail : Okay .
Abigail : Well , I see a huddle of DiMeras board members over there and I need to say hello and make sure they re having a good time .
Dario : Go get em .
Abigail : Okay , thanks .
Gabi : Hey , Chad , what s going on ?
Chad : Hey , can , um-- can you and I talk ?
Claire : Oh , my God , you backstabbing-- God , I can not believe you d do this .
Theo : What d you say ?
Claire : Sorry , what ?
Theo : No , I thought I heard you talking . Is something wrong ?
Claire : Oh , no , nothing . Nothing at all .
Abigail : [ Sighs ] I just sent a whole bottle of champagne over to that team of board members . Try to loosen them up a bit .
Dario : Hmm . Should ve sent over a magnum .
Abigail : [ Laughs ] Well , they just need to be reminded of what it feels like to let their hair down . Cause the more fun they have at the party , the greater the donation .
Dario : Hm .
Abigail : Just wish I could figure out how to get them out on the dance floor .
Dario : Yeah , good luck with that .
Abigail : I do nt need luck , I have you .
Dario : What did you say ?
Abigail : Well , how about we try out some of those dance moves . We can be a little inspiration for the stuffed shirts . Come on .
Dario : I do nt think so .
Abigail : [ Laughs ] Come on , Dario , it s for a good cause . It s gon na be so fun and we do nt wanna let this great music go to waste . What do you say ?
Dario : I ca nt do it .
Gabi : Chad , what are we doing out here ?
Chad : Look , I told you I need to talk to you .
Gabi : Okay , can I just send Eli a text or something ? I do nt want him to think--
Chad : Who the hell is Eli ? That does nt matter . It s fine . It s fine . Eli can wait , but this really ca nt .
Gabi : Okay , Chad , what s going on ? Just tell me .
Chad : I love you .

You are a helpful, respectful and honest assistant. Your task is to summarize the following dialogue. Your answer should be based on the provided dialogue only.
### Dialogue:
Melanie : Come on , Philip , where are you ? We re supposed to be on our way to Vegas right now .
Melanie : Hello ? What ? Are you -- are you serious ? Okay , thank -- okay , Jill , thank you . We ll be right there .
Stephanie : Something wrong ?
Melanie : Uh , well , you ll never guess where Nathan and Philip are right now .
Stephanie : Uh , Nathan should be on his way home from work .
Melanie : Mm - hmm , yeah . He s not . Uh , neither is Philip because they re in jail right now .
Officer : Happy New Year , boys .
Philip : Unbelievable .
Nathan : Well , is this fun for you , Philip ? Are you satisfied ?
Philip : Yeah , as a matter of fact , I am . At least now , you ll keep your big mouth shut .
Nathan : How does that work , Philip , huh ? You think I m not gon na have contact with Melanie -- you do nt think I m gon na have a talk with her when I get outta here ?
Philip : She does nt care what you think -- she does nt give a damn about you anymore .
Nathan : You know , that s where you re wrong . Look , Mel and I might not be together anymore , but she still respects my opinion .
Philip : Why , because you re some hotshot doctor ? You think that medical degree makes you special ?
Nathan : And what kind of degree do you have , Phillip ? Huh ? One in treating women like garbage ?
Philip : Look , Melanie and I are happy together . She loves me and I love her . And if you try to interfere in that , you re gon na make a fool of yourself .
Nathan : Yeah , well , you know , I d be a bigger fool if I did nt tell her what I know is a fact . Marrying someone like you is the biggest mistake of her life .
Bo : Hey .
Carly : Hi , what are you doing back here at this-- you -- you made the call to the hospital , did nt you ?
Bo : 7 : 30 A.M. Swiss time , like I said .
Carly : Vivian knows my secret , does nt she ? She s found my daughter .
Hope : I think I m getting there .
Justin : Really ? How can you tell ?
Vivian : Victor , do nt be so stubborn . I have an herbal remedy that s simply amazing . Foolproof , in fact . I ll just get it .
Victor : Will you stop making such a fuss , Vivian ? I m just not hungry , that s all .
Vivian : This is not like you , Victor . Now , just stop it . I ll get it .
Victor : What in God s name is going on here ?
Justin : Uncle Victor--
Victor : Never mind .
Justin : We can explain .
Victor : Just get the hell out of my house . Both of you .
Officer : Hey , Mrs. DiMera . Get up . You got a visitor .
Nicole : Go away .
Brady : Not on your life .
Carly : Okay , so Vivian was snooping around the hospital .
Bo : No , no , no . The hospital s administrator confirmed that someone was snooping around . And apparently they had some kind of a flood . So your files were never updated in the computer s mainframe . So whoever is snooping around did nt get very much .
Carly : Well , then , that s -- that s good news .
Bo : Yeah .
Carly : My daughter s safe for now , right ?
Bo : That s great news , yeah .
Carly : Thank God and you for looking into this . I do nt know what I would ve done without you .
Victor : Did you hear me ? Get out -- leave .
Justin : Look , if you just-- if you just give us a chance to explain .
Victor : I do nt wanna listen to any ludicrous explanations . That woman is my son s wife . I wo nt have you putting moves on her . You understand me ? Especially in my house .
Vivian : And especially in my bedroom .
Justin : It -- it just happened .
Victor : It just happened . It s not what you think . God , you re a bigger idiot than I thought .
Hope : Victor , wait , stop . Okay , just -- it s my fault . Okay , it s -- it s my fault . And victor , please , I know that you re angry , but for Ciara s sake -- for your granddaughter s sake , can you at least listen to me , please ? Please ? You said you want Justin and me to leave , but I ca nt I-- what do I do ? What do I tell Ciara ? That her grandpa does nt want us to live here anymore ? Okay , if you wanna know what happened--
Vivian : I certainly do .
Hope : I put Ciara to bed . It was just after midnight . Then I headed to the kitchen .
Victor : Through the east wing .
Hope : I was gon na take the back stairs -- I was on my way . That -- that s when I ran into Justin . I m sorry I -- I guess we were both feeling sorry for ourselves being all alone on New Year s Eve and ... we heard the fireworks and one thing led to another . I m sorry .
Victor : So we re blaming it on the fireworks , are we ?
Justin : Believe me , it was nt premeditated .
Victor : Ah , spoken like a true lawyer .
Justin : It was impulsive , and obviously we both realize it was wrong .
Victor : Ah . Well , then . That should exonerate you completely . I mean , you realized it was wrong .
Vivian : And I wanna know why in my bedroom ? If you two are gon na act like a couple of gooey - eyed teenagers , at least you could do it in your own room . You invaded my space .
Hope : It was nt deliberate . I promise you . It was nt . We thought we heard someone coming down the hallway . So we ducked in here . That s what happened , okay ?
Victor : What a crock .
Philip : Melanie loves me and wants to spend the rest of her life with me . Is that so hard to understand ? I mean , you re a doctor , right ? Are nt you guys supposed to be at least half - bright ? She is not interested in you .
Nathan : You know what ? If you re so convinced of that , then why are you afraid that I d talk to her ?
Philip : You know what ? Fine . You wanna do it ? Go trash me to Melanie . As soon as we get out of here , you go run to her , tell her how wrong I am for her .
Nathan : That s the plan .
Philip : Seriously , man , what is your problem ? I mean , ca nt you just give it up ? Ca nt you accept losing ?
Nathan : Pay attention , Philip . That s not the point . The point is that she s gon na get hurt . You re gon na ruin her life , and I m not gon na let that happen .
Philip : Fine . Do what you need to do . Make a fool of yourself . But do nt forget who else gets hurt in this situation .
Nathan : Okay , who , Philip ?
Philip : Stephanie Johnson . The one you re dating ? Your girlfriend now ? Tell me something , how does she fit into this little equation ? Hmm ?
Nathan : She does nt .
Carly : I m sorry . I m sorry . I just got emotional . But I know we ca nt let our guard down with Vivian , cause she s nothing if not persistent .
Bo : Right , but this seems to have given us some time .
Carly : And me some peace of mind . At least a little bit . Maybe I can focus on my work .
Bo : Right . What ?
Carly : Uh , no . I just -- I -- you re here . Why are nt with your family ? It s New Year s .
Bo : Oh . Uh , well , um , nothing s going on at home , obviously , and Ma is doing something with her church group .
Carly : Oh .
Bo : Ciara s at Victor s place , uh , with Hope and the ever - present Justin . So I could nt bring myself to go over there . Not after the Christmas morning we had with Hope and , uh , Justin making the not - so - subtle moves on my wife . What ? Why are you looking at me like that ?
Carly : Well , I -- I did nt know that you knew about that .
Bo : Knew about what ?
Hope : I m sorry if you wo nt accept what we ve just told you . But it s the truth .
Victor : No . What you told me was rationalizations . Excuses .
Justin : Okay , hold on just a second , all right ? Hope does not deserve to be attacked . It was nt her fault .
Victor : You re right , Justin . You share the blame .
Justin : Look , I think you re just--
Victor : I want you out of here . Find another base of operation .
Justin : Fine . It might be better for all of us that way . Take care , Hope .
Victor : Happy New Year . Deck the halls . Yadda yadda . I d like a word alone with my daughter - in - law .
Vivian : As you wish .
Victor : What s going on , Hope ?
Hope : I thought we just talked about that .
Victor : No , there s something else . You re not the woman that I knew . Cheating on her husband . Not caring if her daughter wakes up and witnesses such a thing .
Hope : I m sorry I disappointed you .
Victor : I want an answer , Hope . What could ve prompted such behavior ?
Hope : Carly .
Victor : Carly ? What s she got to do with it ?
Hope : I caught her with Bo . They were in each other s arms . It was exactly the same as what you just walked in on . But the partners were different , that s all .
Victor : They were kissing ?
Hope : Yes , in my house . In my and Bo s house . I , um , saw them through the window . I had stopped by to pick up something for Ciara .
Victor : I m so sorry .
Hope : If I did nt think my marriage was over before ... it is now .
Nicole : Brady .
Brady : I got a message from a guard .
Nicole : A message ? What are you talking about ?
Brady : At first I thought that you might ve remembered something about the person that took Sydney . But , uh , when I got here they told me that you re , uh , you re not eating , Nicole , you re not sleeping , you have nt moved from your cot . What s going on ?
Nicole : And what have you come to do , Brady ? Spread some sunshine ? Tell me that everything s gon na be okay if I just have faith and that -- and that if I believe that , God wo nt let anything happen to Sydney ? What ? That does nt happen . Have nt you noticed ?
Brady : Nicole , come on .
Nicole : No -- no -- no , people get hurt . Innocent people . They even die . And God does nt seem to be able to do anything about that .
Brady : Your hearing is tomorrow .
Nicole : I m well aware of that , thank you .
Brady : Good , good . Then you have to get ready for it . You have to be ready and get yourself together .
Nicole : For what ? I already told you , I ca nt remember anything more about the woman who took my little girl , Br-- Sami s little girl .
Brady : Nicole , that s not even what I m talking about .
Nicole : Then what ? What , Brady ? I have lost Sydney and EJ . I have nothing left to live for .
Brady : What about you ? What about yourself ? Nicole , you re a good , loving , strong woman . And I know you want to be a better person . I know you ve got a conscience in there . It s not over . Your life is not near over .
Justin : If Victor needs me for any reason , I ll be staying at the Salem Inn .
Vivian : So you and Hope can find some much needed privacy .
Justin : Vivian , I apologize for what happened in your bedroom . But what s going on between Hope and me is really none of your concern .
Vivian : Oh , yes , you see , it is , because I m very protective of Victor . You saw his reaction to your little dalliance with Hope . He was beside himself .
Justin : Well , he ll get over it . Victor is made of steel . You , of all people should know that .
Vivian : And you , of all people , should know what corrodes his armor . All the civil unrest in this family . For him to see his nephew with his daughter - in- law like that .
Justin : Well , then he d really be thrown if he knew what his son was up to .
Vivian : What is that suppose to mean ?
Justin : Bo has moved on , Vivian , with Carly Manning .
Bo : What do nt I know about Justin ?
Carly : Look , I should nt have said anything .
Bo : Do nt do that . You did say something . You ca nt retract it now . Is there something going on there I should know about ? Something you should tell me ?
Carly : I -- just , I m pretty sure that Justin has feelings for her . That s all . You re not surprised ?
Bo : Not in the least .
Carly : Well , just because I think he might have feelings for her does nt mean that he would act on them . Would it matter to you if he did ?
Victor : Bo and Carly . I knew that whore was gon na cause trouble for the two of you the minute she stepped foot in Salem .
Hope : I do nt think it s fair you call her that , Victor .
Victor : Oh , do nt talk to me about fair . You do nt know the meaning of the word .
Hope : Victor , please .
Victor : I d already lost my appetite . I walk into the house and I find you in Justin s arms . Which is every bit as reprehensible . What if your daughter had walked in on you ?
Hope : Victor , you--
Victor : Has nt that child been traumatized enough ? I mean , forget the disloyalty . I mean , it was irresponsible . Egregiously so .
Hope : Yes , you re right .
Victor : Yeah , I m right . How big of you to admit it . That you behaved abominably . Do you think that that absolves you ? Your contrition ?
Hope : No , I do nt feel absolved at all . Only ashamed .
Victor : You know , I ve always given you the benefit of the doubt . I ve always had a soft spot for you . But not this time . You betrayed my son , made a fool of my nephew , and did nt protect my granddaughter against what could have been tremendous psychological damage . I m not gon na let you off the hook . Not this time .
Philip : Wow , you really are a heartless bastard .
Nathan : Oh , me ?
Philip : You tell me you do nt think Stephanie fits into the equation ? I mean , do nt you give a rat s ass that this might hurt her ? That chasing Melanie might make Stephanie feel like an idiot ? Like you re stringing the poor girl along ?
Nathan : Yeah , well , I have nt done any of those so ...
Philip : Well , correct me if I m wrong , but you re dating her . And you re pining away for another woman .
Nathan : Look , my situation with Stephanie is new , okay ? And I m not pining away--
Philip : Oh , that is the lamest defense . Like , that excuses everything-- that everything is brand spanking new .
Nathan : You should be one to talk , Philip .
Philip : What are you talking about ?
Nathan : Look how you ve treated Stephanie . You were engaged to her too , were nt you ? And that all of the sudden came to an end -- why ? Because she had the nerve to want you to stop working for your criminal father ?
Philip : Shut your mouth .
Nathan : Oh , yeah , and the same thing is gon na happen with Melanie , all right ? She s gon na get sick of the Kiriakis way of life , and then what ? And then , instead of you maybe trying to be the good guy and trying to reform just slightly and do something vaguely honorable , you re gon na get rid of her too , because this is a process with you , Philip . It really is .
Philip : You son of a bitch .
Nathan : What ?
Melanie : Hey , hey , stop it !
Vivian : Elaborate , please .
Justin : No .
Vivian : What is going on between Bo and Carly ?
Justin : You know what , forget I said anything .
Vivian : No , no , no , if there is something going on between Bo and Carly I want to know what it is . I do nt want Victor to have any more surprises .
Justin : Fine , I m sure you ll find out soon enough . Hope saw Bo and Carly sharing an intimate moment .
Vivian : How intimate ?
Justin : Kissing . That s all .
Vivian : Kissing ? That s all ? That duplicitous little tramp . Lawrence s ashes are barely cold and she s trying to lure Bo into her sticky little web .
Justin : She did nt have to do too much luring from what I understand .
Vivian : Are you sure of that ?
Justin : Positive . Now , if you ll excuse me .
Hope : I do nt blame you for resenting me .
Victor : Oh , it s a lot more than resentment , Hope .
Hope : You ve always been an advocate for Bo and me . Wanting us to reconcile . I do nt think it s in the cards this time .
Victor : In the cards ? Nothing is in the cards . That s not the way it works . It takes dedication . Commitment . You ca nt just sit around , waiting to be dealt a winning hand . You have to take control of the situation .
Hope : What I need is for you to understand that Bo and I are the ones who are in pain and we need our privacy . We need -- we need our space . What we need is for you to stay out of it , okay ? I m sorry , but your anger , it s fueling the fire .
Victor : I m in this fiasco up to my eyebrows . I wo nt stay out of it .
Hope : Then I m sorry , but I ca nt live here . Ciara and I will be out first thing in the morning .
Bo : We ll yeah , of course it would matter to me if Hope and Justin were involved . It ... would change everything .
Bo : You have to go back ?
Carly : Uh - huh . Um , but thank you again for the -- for the news .
Bo : Yep .
Carly : I m gonna--
Bo : No , you know what ? I almost forgot .
Carly : [ Laughing ]
Bo : Happy New Year .
Carly : I was looking for those .
Bo : Yeah , well , look no more . There you go .
Carly : Brilliant . Gosh , this reminds me of all the time that s passed since we spent that New Year s together on the boat .
Bo : Hmm , and here we are . Together again . It looks great .
Carly : Yeah . Happy New Year .
Bo : Yeah .
Melanie : Really , guys ?
Stephanie : What s going on with you two ? Why are you here ?
Nathan : Look , it s a long story . I do nt wanna tell it right now . We ll tell you later . Just get me out of here please . I do nt belong here .
Stephanie : Okay , I ll see about posting bail .
Stephanie : Thank you .
Guard : Philip Kiriakis , your attorney posted bail . So pending some unfinished paperwork , you re free to go .
Philip : Great . Thank you . Thank you . Ready to go ?
Nathan : Thank God for Daddy . Melanie , I have to talk to you . Come here .
Philip : No , send her an email , okay ?
Guard : All right , let s go . Guys , I do nt have all night .
Philip : Can she come with me ?
Guard : No , she ca nt . Checkout is nt a community process , so let s get going .
Melanie : Uh , I ll be -- it s okay , I ll be right there . I ll be right there . What did you wanna tell me ?
Nathan : Why we re here . Why I followed Philip .
Melanie : Why ?
Nathan : Melanie , you ca nt do this -- you ca nt marry him .
Philip : Hey , look , I do nt think you understand . I need to go back there .
Guard : Well , you could stay there for a long time unless you chill out . It s your choice .
Philip : Okay . Okay .
Stephanie : So , what happened ? You and Nathan get in some sort of a brawl ?
Philip : It was nothing . Nothing worth discussing .
Stephanie : So they just threw you in jail for the hell of it ? Look , Philip , I know we re not close anymore , but I was hoping we could be honest with each other .
Philip : Fine . Fine . I doubt your boyfriend will tell you the truth . So here goes . Doctor golden boy is trying to hijack my fiancée .
Nicole : Brady , I have no fight left in me .
Brady : Nicole , find it . If you ca nt find it , you know what ? The lawyer I hired , he s -- he s gon na work like hell for you . He s gon na fight for you . By the way , he s gon na win . I already had a talk with him . You ca nt lose . You re gon na go up in front of that judge tomorrow , along with the lawyer that I got for you , by the way , and you re gon na fight for your life . You hear me ? Please tell me you re gon na do that for yourself .
Nicole : Brady , you know what I ve been thinking about ?
Brady : What ?
Nicole : The first time you came back to town and I answered the door and there you were standing right in front of me . And if only I had ...
Brady : What ? What ?
Nicole : When I saw you I knew in my heart that you were the love of my life and always would be . And if had only acted on that . If I had just listened to my gut , then maybe--
Brady : You know -- you know-- you know , uh , it s not too late .
Stephanie : Nathan is trying to hijack Melanie ? What does that mean ?
Philip : Look , Steph , I do nt mean to hurt your feelings here , but--
Stephanie : But , what ?
Philip : He s using you as a cover .
Stephanie : A cover ?
Philip : Yeah , I think he s trying to get Melanie out of his mind by dating you .
Stephanie : Wow , that s a really heartwarming theory and , uh , it s great for my ego too .
Philip : I wish it were nt true , because you deserve better . I wish it were all a joke , but I bet you he is down there right now begging Melanie not to marry me .
Guard : Kiriakis , you re free to go . Your attorney has all the details .
Philip : Look , I would nt have said any of this if it were nt true . But maybe it s better you know now . Right ? I m sorry , Steph . I really am .
Guard : All the paperwork in regards to Mr. Horton s bail is all filled out . So all you need to do is just sign and you can take your boyfriend home .
Melanie : Nathan , look , I m touched that you care . You got ta let this go . I m with Philip . I made a choice .
Nathan : And I know that . And I think that you made it impulsively .
Melanie : What ?
Nathan : No , I know you made it impulsively . Just -- all right , just hear me out . All right , listen . You dated Philip a couple times , right ? I mean , he does nt know anything about you . You do nt know anything about him . I mean , what is the rush to get married ? I mean , you re so young . I mean , unless you re trying to have kids .
Melanie : No , I am -- no , no ! I m not trying to have kids right now .
Nathan : Then it does nt make any sense to me , Melanie .
Melanie : Yeah , look , it makes sense to me , Nathan .
Nathan : You ca nt just go to Vegas .
Melanie : I have to do this .
Nathan : What do you mean , you have to do this ? You do nt have to do anything . Look , just -- just listen for one second . Just -- just talk to me , all right ? And just -- just--
Melanie : And what ? And what ?
Nathan : And -- and hang with me for a second .
Melanie : You said you did nt wanna hang with me . You said you were finished with me .
Nathan : Look , I know what I said to you , Melanie , but -- and that was stupid . But you know , that s not the point right now . The point is that you ca nt do this .
Melanie : Look , I do nt care . You do nt get to tell me what I should or should nt do , Nathan .
Nathan : All I m trying to do--
Melanie : Stop it ! Just stop , please . I do nt have feelings for you anymore .
Nathan : You sure about that ?
Vivian : Bo . And what is your New Year s resolution , Beauregard ? I hope it s to reconcile with your lovely wife .
Bo : A little late for you to be out and about , is nt it , Vivian ?
Vivian : A little late for both of us . I guess we have a lot on our minds . Particularly a little succubus named Carly Manning .
Bo : Actually , I m looking at the succubus . Excuse me .
Vivian : Wait a minute . Wait a minute , I m a friend . I m here to help .
Bo : Yeah , and why would I believe a word you have to say ?
Vivian : I m a friend to your father . I try to protect Victor . And if he hears about that little lip - lock with Carly--
Bo : I do nt give a damn what he hears about .
Vivian : Well , it s going to have a tremendous effect on him , especially in light of what he knows . And then , if he knows about this infamous kiss with Carly , well , that certainly would explain a lot of things , would nt it ?
Bo : What are you rambling on about , huh ? What other things ?
Vivian : I m talking about your indiscretion ... with Carly . It has driven your wife right into the arms of Justin .
Victor : No , Hope , I do nt want you to go . Not over this . It s been good for me having you here .
Hope : Oh , right , until now .
Victor : I do nt want you to go , Hope .
Hope : Victor , I know that you re still hoping that Bo and I--
Victor : No , stop . Please , you ve made your position abundantly clear ... and I m a realist . If it s meant to be , you and my son will get back together .
Hope : I , um , thank you , I think , for trying to understand .
Victor : What gets me -- what really irks me , is that Carly Manning is a thorn in your side . That woman is like poison to every man she s ever come in contact with . She s worse than Chloe and Sami and Nicole all rolled up into one . Why my son is so blinded by her , I ll never know . Maybe you ll have better luck figuring it out .
Hope : Maybe I will .
Brady : You can still have a life , Nicole . That s what I m telling you . That s why I keep saying to you -- you got ta fight . You just ca nt give up on this .
Nicole : You ve done so much for me .
Brady : You know what s funny ? It s funny that you brought up how you wished you would ve gone with your heart when you first saw me when I came back to Salem . You know what I was feeling ? The moment I saw you , I wanted to grab your arm and I wanted to take you right out of that DiMera mansion and just go away with you . I should ve done that .
Nicole : Yeah , well ... Brady , that was then and , um , things are different . They ve changed .
Brady : I know . Maybe our time has passed , Nicole , I do nt know . But here s what I know . You re beautiful , you re wonderful ... I could say so many good things about you but the most important thing about you is that you re the toughest chick that I know . That s why you re not gon na give up . You are gon na fight , you understand me ? You re not gon na give up .
Justin : Hey .
Hope : Hey . Um , do you have a minute ?
Justin : Of course . So how did it go at Victor s ?
Hope : Not great .
Justin : No surprise there .
Hope : In fact , I , um , I almost woke Ciara up and moved out of the mansion tonight . But Victor insisted I stay . You know how persuasive he is .
Justin : Good , because the secret that Bo has been protecting , Carly s secret , it s there , Hope . I know it is . And the only way you re gon na find it , is if you stay put .
Hope : Justin ... what happened tonight ? Uh , I mean , between you and me ?
Justin : What about it ?
Hope : It was wrong .
Bo : Got ta ring in the New Year . You know , hold up tradition .
Carly : Absolutely .
Bo : Eight bells and all s well , right ?
Carly : Ready ?
Bo : I m ready .
Bo : What are we doing ? One .
Carly : Two , three ... four ... five , six ... that was a good seven . But that was only seven .
Bo : Hmm ?
Carly : That was only seven .
Bo : What ?
Carly : It was only seven .
Bo : Oh .
Bo : Eight . You satisfied ?
Carly : I m satisfied .
Bo : All s well , princess .
Carly : All s well . Happy New Year , Bo .
Bo : I know you re dying to be the bearer of bad news , but , uh , you re not telling me anything I do nt already know .
Vivian : I m not done yet .
Bo : Uh , well , then say what it is you got ta say .
Vivian : Oh , dear . I hate to ruin your New Year s --
Bo : Would you spit it out ?
Vivian : Well , your father and I found Hope and Justin ringing in the New Year in a personal sort of way . Oh , dear . You ve already gone pale . I have nt told you how they were wrapped in each other s arms , kissing passionately .
Brady : So you ll see the judge tomorrow , right ? You ll be in court ?
Nicole : Yeah . Yeah , I ll do what I have to do .
Brady : All right . I ll see you then .
Nicole : Brady ?
Brady : Yeah .
Nicole : I , uh ... thank you .
Brady : I ll see you .
Nicole : Excuse me , Officer . Um , I need to -- I need to call my lawyer .
Officer : You have three minutes .
Nicole : Thank you . Yes , this is , uh , Nicole Walker DiMera , and I m calling because I wanna change my plea . That s right . I know what I ve done is wrong and I wanna throw myself on the mercy of the court .
Guard : Miss , all you had to do was sign on the dotted line .
Stephanie : Nathan can call his grandmother . Have her bail his ass out .
Nathan : Go on , then . Hey , look me in the eye and tell me that -- that marrying Philip is exactly what you want . Tell me . Come on , Melanie , tell me . Tell me that -- that he s the one and that you ca nt spend the rest of your life living without him . Go ahead , say it . Please ! Say it !
Melanie : He is the one . Nathan , he is the one . I love him . And I wanna marry him .
Philip : You ready to go ?
Melanie : Yeah . Yeah , let s get outta here . Please .
Justin : Hope , it was nt wrong . It was a strategy .
Hope : Yeah , I know that , but ...
Justin : We kissed . And it worked . Victor and Vivian did nt suspect for a second that we were in her room , searching .
Hope : Right , it worked .
Justin : No regrets , huh ?
Hope : Good night . Hey , um , Happy New Year .
Justin : Happy New Year . Damn .
Carly : Hey , you going somewhere ?
Justin : Yeah , Victor kicked me out . Just heading over to the Salem Inn .
Carly : Does this have anything to do with Hope ? By any chance ?
Bo : As I said before , I do nt believe a word out of your lying mouth .
Vivian : Well , you may think I m lying . So be it . But Victor and I saw it , and we were stunned . Victor turned white as a sheet . Very much like you are now .
Bo : Why would you tell me this , huh ? What do you think I m suppose to do with this information ?
Vivian : It s not what you re supposed to do , it s what you did .
Bo : What are you rambling on about ?
Vivian : Your careless actions with Carly have driven your wife , the mother of your children , right into Justin Kiriakis bed . Is that what you expected the outcome to be ? No , I did nt think so . Well , I think I ll just scoot on home and help myself to a nice glass of victor s excellent champagne . It is the New Year and time for new beginnings . Good night , Bo .
Bo : Yeah , get drunk . Become somebody . Fancy Face , what did you go and do ?
Rafe : If my sister gets hurt , I m coming after you .
Sami : We have to do what s best for Sydney , EJ .
Bo : You telling me you have feelings for him ?

<s>### Instruction:
You are a helpful, respectful and honest assistant. Your task is to summarize the following dialogue. Your answer should be based on the provided dialogue only.
### Dialogue:
Bo : Lindsay , will you marry me ?
Cristian : That was the cook . He just got here , and he has nt seen Mami .
Antonio : It makes no sense . I mean , I spoke to Talia . She said they were both here and that Mami had hurt her ankle and that she would nt go to the hospital .
Cristian : Well , neither one of them is here .
Antonio : What s going on ?
Sarah : Hey , I thought you were meeting the guys at the diner .
Talia : No .
Sarah : Is the insurance investigator coming ?
Talia : Sarah , I m so sorry . Sarah ! What -- what are you -- Sarah ! Sarah , Sarah . Sarah , Sarah . Sarah . You did nt say anything -- why did you do this ?
Jonas : I did nt do this . You did .
Natalie : I just wish I could go back in time , you know , maybe if Nash had nt been there when everything came out about you .
Jared : I know . I ve thought the same thing a million times .
Natalie : Maybe he d still be alive . God , what is Jessica going to do without him ?
Jared : Hey . You are going to be able to make things right with your sister . Just give it a little time .
Natalie : I do nt have time . And there s nothing I m going to be able to do to make it up to Jessica . But I can apologize .
Jared : No . I do nt think you should do that right now .
Natalie : Well , I have to try to find a way to get through to her .
Jared : She s not ready to hear it , Natalie .
Natalie : Well , I have to try .
Jared : Do you want to make things worse ?
Cristian : Look , maybe Talia took Mami to the hospital after all .
Antonio : You know , you re right . That s probably it . Let me call Talia s cell phone .
Carlotta : Hey , guys .
Cristian : Mom ?
Antonio : Hey , are you all right ?
Carlotta : I m fine . Why would nt I be ?
Cristian : Well , Talia told us you would nt go to the doctor .
Carlotta : What ?
Antonio : She called me .
Cristian : Listen , we know all about your sprained ankle . How bad is it ?
Carlotta : My -- my ankle s fine . I just walked over from the post office .
Antonio : Okay , well , then I guess the fall was nt as bad as Talia thought .
Carlotta : I did nt fall , and I have nt seen Talia since you were here with her last night .
Cristian : Why would Talia tell us Mami was hurt when she was nt ?
Talia : I am not the one that chloroformed Sarah .
Jonas : You re the one who diverted the Vega men , lured Miss Roberts here .
Talia : You did nt really give me a choice .
Jonas : Ah , well , Officer Sahid --
Jonas : Life is full of choices . You see , there s usually two , at least -- a good one and a bad one , and , well , in this case , you can rest assured that you made the right choice . And we know why .
Jonas : Uh , Antonio Vega .
Talia : He s going to know something s up if I do nt pick up that phone .
Jonas : Oh , then you re going to have to listen very closely to my set of instructions , and then you re going to have to make another choice -- you know , to follow my instructions or not . We both know what will happen if you do nt choose correctly .
Bo : Not exactly the response I was hoping for .
Lindsay : I could nt possibly have heard you right . I had to move away from you to give myself a reality check .
Bo : I think you did hear me right . But just in case you did nt -- Lindsay , will you marry me ?
Lindsay : This is the last thing I expected . Especially today . And -- here .
Bo : I know , huh ? After a funeral is about the least romantic place to offer a proposal .
Lindsay : Oh . If only --
Bo : If only what ?
Lindsay : You really want to marry me ?
Bo : Is there some reason why I would nt ?
Lindsay s voice : It takes a special kind of woman to take out a monster like Spencer Truman , and then fake a nervous breakdown to avoid doing time . I m proud I was the only one you trusted enough to share that secret with .
Bo : Lindsay .
Nora : You re back .
Clint : Yeah .
Nora : How s Jessica ?
Clint : Viki and I took her to the cottage . I did nt think we should go there yet , but Jessie insisted .
Nora : Is Viki there with her now ?
Clint : No , Jessie wanted to be alone .
Nora : Do you think that s such a good idea ?
Clint : No , I do nt . But she s a grown woman , so what could I do ?
Nora : Well , unfortunately , the only way to get beyond losing the husband that you adored is to muscle through it .
Clint : There s just so much pain , though . And what do you do if it s the other child who caused it ?
Nora : Oh , Clint , I do nt know what to tell you about that .
Clint : What was Natalie thinking , coming to the church like that ?
Nora : Oh , now , see , I m sure she wanted to pay her respects , and I guarantee you that she and Jared did nt think anyone would see them .
Clint : Yeah , well , Jessica did see them , and she said all those hateful things in front of the whole church full of people . I mean , I know where Jessie was coming from , but that was not the thing to do .
Nora : Yeah , but you know what ? She needed to get that off her chest . The timing may have been wrong , but I would much rather have my daughter screaming with rage than -- than staring blankly .
Clint : Maybe .
Nora : The only chance she has of healing is if she lets her feelings out .
Jessica : Hello . Mom . Uh , um -- no . I m fine , I m fine . I , uh -- I fell asleep . So , uh -- no , I m okay . How s Bree ? Did she eat her dinner ? Good . That s good . Really , I m fine . Everything s fine . I was just , uh , looking at pictures of Nash , and I -- they made me feel better , yes . They really did .
Tina : Oh , my beautiful baby . Ca nt believe I dragged you into all this . But you re safe now . You re in a church , where no one , where nothing can ever hurt you .
Talia : She s still breathing . Is she going to be okay ?
Jonas : She is exactly how she s supposed to be . It s all part of the plan , right down to the last minute detail . By the way , good choice not answering your phone . Just to make sure we re not interrupted anymore --
Talia : What part of the plan are you up to now ?
Jonas : Oh , very good , Officer . It s good to see that you re still on the job . Well , this is the part of the plan where I effectively deal with Miss Roberts , and you get to help me .
Antonio : Now Talia s phone s off .
Carlotta : Why would she say that I d hurt myself when I had nt , or for that matter , that she was here when she was nt ?
Antonio : Because she knew that s the one thing that would get Cris and me to come to the diner right away .
Cristian : Yeah , but why ? Why would she do that ?
Antonio : To keep us from going somewhere else ?
Cristian : Where ? That does nt make any sense .
Carlotta : It s not like Talia to lie to you , Antonio .
Cristian : Listen , Talia told you to ask Sarah to go back to the apartment , right ? To meet up with those insurance investigators about the break - in ?
Antonio : Yeah .
Cristian : Maybe Sarah knows something .
Antonio : Call her . Look , Mami , is there any way that Talia was here while you were gone ?
Carlotta : I asked Pedro and Carmen , and they both have nt seen her .
Cristian : She s not answering the phone .
Jared : You heard Jessica at the funeral . She s in no frame of mind to hear anything either one of us has to say .
Natalie : Yeah , but we go through all of the bad stuff together . She s my sister , and I love her .
Jared : I understand that , but she does nt feel the same way about you , not now . Honey , I m sorry . I m just saying if you go over there now , you are setting yourself up for another really ugly scene , and you have taken enough of that for one day .
Natalie : No , I have nt taken anything , not compared to Jessica , okay ? I have you . We re apartment hunting together . We have a future . So my sister can say whatever she wants to me . I just want her to know that I care about her .
Jared : She lost her husband . She thinks we killed him .
Natalie : Nash was coming at me . You just pushed him out of the way . It was an accident , you know ? You did nt mean for him to go through that skylight . You did nt even mean to hurt him .
Jared : But I did hurt him , okay ? And my lies hurt everyone .
Natalie : It s still not your fault Nash died .
Jared : Nash died as a result of what I did . If I had nt have pretended to be Asa s son , Dorian would have never been able to take over the company , and the family would have been able to help Nash keep his vineyard . He d still be here , and you d still have your sister .
Natalie : I do still have my sister , it s just she hates me right now , but you know what ? I have to believe that she s going to forgive me and that she s going to see that all of this was just an accident and we did nt kill Nash , and when she sees that , maybe she ll forgive us .
Jessica : Really , Mom , I m fine . I , uh -- I m just really , really tired . Um , so I m going to try to go back to sleep , and I m going to shut the phone off , so if I do nt answer , do nt worry about me , okay ? Yes , I will call you in the morning . I m fine . Okay . I love you , too . Bye .
Cristian : Sarah , it s me , Cristian . Open up . Oh , wait . I have keys .
Antonio : All right , open it . Then get out of the way .
Antonio : Sarah ? Talia ? All right , you stay here . I m going to check the bedroom .
Antonio : All right , Talia and Sarah are gone . So is Layla . What the hell is going on ?
Cristian : I might have an idea . I think it s time I tell you everything .
Antonio : What are you talking about ?
Cristian : Well , you know that woman John saw running away from Ramsey s apartment ?
Antonio : With the hat and glasses ?
Cristian : Right . That was Sarah s mom .
Antonio : Tina ? What is she doing here ?
Cristian : Well , apparently , Tina married a prince , so now she s the princess of some small country .
Antonio : Mendorra ? Of the stolen jewels ?
Cristian : Well , she came to Llanview to get the jewels back .
Antonio : And Ramsey had them
Cristian : Well , she paid him the ransom money and managed to get out before the guys who killed Ramsey got there . She got the jewels , but now somebody else is after her .
Antonio : And you know all this how ?
Cristian : Because I ve been hiding Tina in my studio .
Tina : Oh . David Vickers . I m so sorry I had to tell you to run , but if I did nt , then Jonas was going to kill you , and -- I know , though , you re not used to being on your own , are you ? I got to find you .
Jared : I think back to that day in Texas when I heard Nigel paying Alex off to keep it all a secret . And I saw my chance . I wanted to pay Jess back . I wanted to be a Buchanan . God , how could I be so stupid ?
Natalie : Hey , stop . Stop beating yourself up .
Jared : I am getting what I deserve , but you , you do nt deserve any of this .
Natalie : Oh , you know what ? People want to hate me , bring it on . It s not like it has nt happened before . What s killing me is that I ca nt help Jess through this . Not having my sister in my life , it s what makes me feel -- so much of this is just wrong . I mean , and the thought that she s never going to be in my life again --
Jared : I m going to do whatever I can to fix that , but that is why I m asking you , do nt go see her right now .
Natalie : Maybe you re right .
Jared : She s just too raw and too angry right now because -- look , I know how I would feel if someone took you away from me .
Natalie : You think she s ever going to forgive us ?
Jared : You , yes . Me ? Not a chance . None of the family will . You know , sometimes I think they would have been better off just knowing Asa s son was really David Vickers .
Natalie : Oh , well , hi , there ,
Jared : Who s this ?
Natalie : Hey . Are you all by yourself ? Oh , my goodness . You are so cute .
Jared : What s it say on his tag ?
Natalie : Let me see .
Jared : Hi .
Natalie : It says David Vickers .
Lindsay : A proposal ? I did nt see this coming .
Bo : You did nt ?
Lindsay : We ve been living together because the judge named you my appointed guardian .
Bo : That s how it started .
Lindsay : But marriage ? I -- I mean , I thought you would still be getting over the idea that I leaked information to Clint behind your back .
Bo : Yeah , I am over it . All right ? Now there are no more secrets between us .
Lindsay : Bo --
Bo : No , Lindsay , every night when I m driving home , I know that you re going to be there , waiting for me . You know , I probably had a lousy day , but I know that we re going to be together .
Lindsay : We tried this before , and we did nt make it .
Bo : Yeah , but , see , all of that , that was in the past . I realize that this must feel like it just came out of nowhere , and honestly , I had nt even planned it .
Lindsay : And you re not exactly an impulsive guy .
Bo : No . Exactly . See ? You re right , and you know me . And that is so important . You know ? I do nt want to be without you , Lindsay .
Lindsay : If this is about Jessica losing Nash --
Bo : It is . It really is . Everything that -- that happened here made me realize that you can lose it all , just like that . You know ? Everything can just be over before you have a chance to even get it started . I do nt want that to happen with us .
Lindsay : Clint is nt going to like this . And Nora is going to go ballistic .
Bo : Oh , who cares ? Huh . Or maybe you do nt feel the same way ?
Lindsay : Bo Buchanan , I do nt think I have ever really gotten over you .
Bo : You ve always been there for me . When I lost Drew --
Lindsay : You were the only one that understood what I was going through when I lost Jen .
Bo : And when Pa died , you were the one that I wanted to tell .
Lindsay : Oh , boy , he d be rolling over in his grave if he could hear you now .
Bo : Ah , so what ?
Lindsay : Do you mean that ?
Bo : You know , I ve lived my whole life being sort of pushed around by Pa , whether I was -- oh , if I was doing whatever he wanted me to do , or if we were fighting because I did nt . He s gone now . And I miss him , but I do nt want to live for my family anymore . I want to live my own life , and I want to live it with you , now . Do you get what I m saying , Lindsay ? I love you .
Clint : I love all my kids , but Jessie lost her husband because of something that Natalie did . And every time I look at little Bree , I just think that if Natalie had lived the past few months just a little differently , that baby would still have her daddy .
Nora : Well , unfortunately , it s going to be a while longer before you stop looking at her that way . And Jessica , too . Jessica s going to be looking at that little face of Bree s , at her little baby , and she s going to see Nash s face . But before long , that s what she ll be wanting to see .
Lindsay : I have loved you for so long , and everything between us is so good right now .
Bo : Okay , whoa , stop right there . Do nt start telling me how marriage can just wreck everything .
Lindsay : Yeah , but it can , and we both know that .
Bo : Yeah , but , see , it does nt have to . You -- you know , Matthew was asking me the other day , why do people get married ? Because so many marriages end in divorce . You know what I told him ? Do nt live your life afraid of what might go wrong .
Lindsay : But I have enough baggage to fill the attic of the Buchanan mansion .
Bo : Okay , all right , let s leave it all in the attic . We could be happy , Lindsay . We got a shot this time .
Lindsay : I killed Spencer .
Bo : I know . Because you were dead inside after Jen died . Then you had a breakdown when Spencer told you that he was going to ruin Marcie s happy life . Now , is nt that right ?
Lindsay : I have to live with myself every day of my life and I do nt know if you re ready to live with it , too .
Bo : Why do nt we think about everything that could go right ? And then we ll work on that together .
Lindsay : Do you really think we can ?
Bo : We ve both been through hell , but we re still standing and we re stronger than ever . I know you , and you know me in a way nobody else does .
Lindsay : I know what kind of a man you are -- in every way . But , Bo , there s something you do nt know about me .
Antonio : You have been hiding a woman we have been looking for -- and it s Sarah s mother ? She s connected to a multiple homicide and you knew that .
Cristian : Okay , okay , can we save the lecture until we find out where Sarah and Talia are ?
Antonio : What else are nt you telling me ?
Cristian : That guy that s after Tina -- he s the same guy that Sarah and I ran into in the park .
Antonio : With the gun ?
Cristian : Yeah , Tina says his name is Jonas Chamberlain . He s the U.S. Ambassador to Mendorra .
Antonio : The same guy who shot John ?
Cristian : He s after the jewels .
Antonio : And he thought that Tina might have hid them here at her daughter s apartment ?
Cristian : Probably .
Antonio : That still does nt make sense . I mean , why would Talia lead us off track ?
Cristian : And where are Sarah and Talia right now ?
Antonio : Take me to Tina now .
Jonas : Get in there . Nice move -- not tipping off your ex .
Talia : What s going to happen to Sarah ?
Jonas : She ll be fine . The only thing that you need to be thinking about right now is that beautiful cooperation in this matter . Got me ? Because you know what ll happen if you do nt .
Tina : But Jonas tried to kill me again ! I mean , thank goodness that David Vickers bit him and saved my life . Well -- I know , now he s on the run , I ve got to go find him , and -- would -- would you please stop yelling at me ? None of this is my fault . Look , how was I supposed to know that Jonas was nt for real ? We re in this together , remember ?
Natalie : There s no more information on his dog tag .
Jared : Do you think it could be Vickers dog ?
Natalie : Or maybe Dorian turned him into one .
Jared : Whose idea of a sick joke is it to name a dog David Vickers ?
Natalie : Somebody who knows what a dirty dog he is .
Jared : You know what ? We re getting punked . That s got to be it . Okay , come out . Whose dog is it ? Hello ?
Natalie : Oh , honey , nobody wants you . It s okay . I know exactly how you feel .
Jared : I love you , Natalie , and I m still here . I m not going anywhere .
Natalie : I love you , too . I mean , I guess we re all we have left .
Jared : That s enough for me .
Clint : Is there anything in these contracts that would help us get B.E. back ?
Nora : Oh , I do nt know . I just sort of started .
Nora : Okay , you , out with it . You need to talk , and so you re going to talk to me . Come on , talk to me .
Clint : Okay . I was just trying to regain some perspective . I mean , what happened to Nash is a tragedy . Losing a company is temporary setback . I still have so much to be thankful for . And first and foremost of those blessings is you . When things are crashing down all around me , there you are with a lifeline .
Nora : Back at you .
Clint : I love you , Nora . I love you and I m not ashamed to say that I need you now more than ever .
Lindsay : Bo , there s something that I have nt been honest with you about .
Bo : I know -- better than anybody . You kept it from me that Matthew was my son . You also -- all the dirt that you dug up and gave to Clint . That was just so that you cod help us hold on to Buchanan Enterprises . See ? You have made some bad choices , but you re not a bad person .
Lindsay : Do you understand that I just never believed in myself as I am ? I always thought I had to make things happen .
Bo : Well , I hope that you ve finally figured out that you are good enough . And all those days -- they re all behind you .
Lindsay : What if there are other things ?
Bo : Are there ?
Lindsay : I m just not very proud of the life I led .
Bo : All I know is that we do the things we can in the here and now .
Lindsay : Are you sure ? I mean , have you really put some thought into this ?
Bo : No , you see , that s the beauty of this whole thing . I m not thinking . I m feeling .
Lindsay : But that s not like you .
Bo : I know it . And you re going to see a lot more of that from me if you decide to stick with me .
Lindsay : It s not a question of whether or not I want to stick with you .
Bo : It s a risk , but it s one I think is worth taking . I learned today you ca nt put off happiness . And I m tired of playing it safe . I want a fresh start and I want it with you . So , what do you say , Lindsay ?
Natalie : When you kiss me like that it makes me want to forget all the bad things that are going on .
Jared : Yeah , it does that for me , too .
Natalie : But , really , we re in the middle and we have to deal with the fact that we ve hurt so many people -- somehow .
Jared : Yes , but maybe , just maybe we can put that on hold just for tonight .
Natalie : I d really like that .
Jared : Let s go back to the hotel , hold each other , and make each other forget for a little while .
Natalie : Okay . That sounds really good . What are we going to do about David Vickers ?
Tina : Look , I promise you , it will all work out all right , okay ?
Tina : Oh , someone s coming . I ve got to go . You told your brother ? We had an agreement !
Antonio : Deal s off .
Cristian : Where s Sarah ?
Tina : Well , she was supposed to be with you at that funeral .
Cristian : Well , she said she was going back to her place , but she was nt there . She s not picking up the phone .
Antonio : And her apartment was tossed . Somebody was looking for something .
Tina : Where s my daughter ?
Antonio : We ca nt find her . We have no idea where Sarah is or her roommate , Talia Sahid .
Tina : How can this be happening ?
Antonio : You tell me . Cristian s told me about the jewels , and the money , and this man Jonas who s been chasing you .
Tina : What , and you -- you think Sarah s missing because of all that ?
Antonio : Talia ?
Jonas : No , this is Jonas Chamberlain .
Antonio : I know who you are . Why do you have Talia s phone ?
Jonas : Well , Talia let me use it for a minute . Say hello , Talia .
Talia : Antonio ?
Antonio : What are you doing with him ?
Bo : You re scared , are nt you ?
Lindsay : Are nt you ?
Bo : Well , I do nt know . I guess , you know , neither one of us had a great track record , but we must ve learned something from our mistakes , right ?
Lindsay : You know what the definition of insanity is , do nt you ?
Bo : Mm - hmm .
Lindsay : Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result .
Bo : Hmm . Hmm .
Lindsay : Is this insane , Bo ?
Bo : I do nt know . All I know is I want to keep coming home to you every night . I want us to jump on an airplane and fly off to Paris . I want to charter a sailboat and sail around the Caribbean -- just the three of us , you , me , and Matthew . I m willing to take a leap of faith to make all those things happen . And I would like you to take the leap with me . So , what do you say ? I ll ask you once again . Lindsay Rappaport , will you marry me ?
Lindsay : Yes . Yes , I will marry you .
Antonio : Talia , where are you , honey ? Are you okay ?
Tina : What about Sarah ?
Talia : Antonio -- I m so sorry , but my --
Jonas : Uh - uh - uh . Officer Sahid has nothing more to say at this time .
Tina : Where s Sarah ?
Jonas : Oh , and tell the princess that her daughter is with us and that she sends her regards .
Antonio : What do you want with Talia and Sarah ?
Jonas : I ll phone you with more instructions when it s time .
Antonio : If you do anything to them , I swear I will --
Jonas : You re in no position to be issuing orders , Detective Vega . So , do nt even think about it . And do nt even think about telling any of your friends about any of this , especially Lieutenant McBain .
Antonio : Damn it . He turned it off again .
Cristian : What s going on ? Who was that on the phone ?
Tina : Where s Sarah ?
Cristian : Are she and Talia all right ?
Antonio : That was your friend Jonas . He s got the both of them .
Tina : Oh , my God .
Cristian : Well , what does he want ?
Antonio : He did nt say . He also did nt say what he plans to do with them .
Jonas : Well , you wo nt be needing this anymore . You know , I have to say I think it s very interesting that for a spurned lover , Detective Vega seemed inordinately concerned .
Talia : He actually cares about people .
Talia : And he s not going to let you get away with this .
Jonas : Hmm . Just remember one thing , Talia -- no heroics . And do nt even try to call Vega or McBain , because if you do either one of those things , you know what will happen . Oh , look at the time . Time to go meet him . And he ca nt wait to see you again . Come on .
Jared : Well , I guess we ll just have to take the little guy back to the hotel with us .
Natalie : Yeah , we re going to have to sneak him in because if Roxy sees him -- well , we do nt want to get kicked out of the one place that ll have us .
Jared : Yeah . And I guess tomorrow we can go find your owner .
Natalie : Somebody s got to be looking for him . He s very well groomed . I never thought I would say this , but David Vickers is a real cutie . What ?
Jared : Nothing . It s just good to see you smile again .
Natalie : I have nt had much to smile about .
Jared : There will be , Natalie . I promise .
Tess : Hey , baby . I m here . It s me -- Tess .
Bo : I asked Lindsay to marry me yesterday .
Antonio : We re not paying any ransom until we see Talia and Sarah .
Natalie : God , what is she going to do ?
Tess : They will live to regret taking you away from me .

Ashley : Nothing . Victor was just leaving .
Jack : Really ?
Ashley : Mm - hmm .
Jack : So soon ? I mean , it s not like I do nt know what he s up to .
Victor : You think you do , Jack . If you care to listen , and I m sure you do nt , I ll tell you the truth of the matter .
Jack : When I m looking for the truth , you re probably the last place I ll stop .
Victor : Ashley , congratulations on making a very wise decision . I will see you tomorrow .
Ashley : See you tomorrow .
Jack : Okay , what the hell wise decision is he talking about ?
Bobby : So after the party , all the kids left . And that s when they found her dad s gun . They started playing with it .
Brittany : And that s how he died , when the gun went off ? I ca nt believe Nikki blocked this whole thing out .
Bobby : Well , the mind s a funny thing . It plays tricks on you .
Brittany : When did it finally come back to her ?
Bobby : A few months ago .
Brittany : And she waited this long to say anything ?
Bobby : Look , it does nt matter . What matters is that I know that my brother s dead . Now I can have some peace of mind .
Brittany : I am so sorry . I can only imagine what you re feeling .
Bobby : Well , it s getting late . I should talk to Nikki before she goes to bed .
Brittany : Do you want me to go up and ask her to join us ?
Bobby : I wanna talk to her alone .
Brittany : Why ?
Bobby : I just think its better that way . This has been rough on Nikki , and I think it ll be a little easier to talk about it without an audience .

Bobby : At this hour ?
Brittany : Do nt worry . I wo nt be long . Let me know how it goes with Nikki .
Bobby : Yeah .

Dru : Oh , honey , remember I took you to this opera ?
Lily : Yes , I remember . That was a long time ago .
Dru : Yeah . Thanks for helping me out , precious .

Dru : ( Laughs ) whatever , okay ?
Lily : Wait , here s , um , here s an a ...
Dru : Okay .
Lily : B and a C.

Lily : Yeah .
Dru : And your mother can dance . I m not just talkin about the ballet either . Ooh , no , I can throw a groove on .
Lily : Wait , Mom , may I ask something personal for a second ?
Dru : Yes , honey , go ahead .
Lily : Um , well , did it bother you when Uncle Malcolm married Aunt Olivia ?
Malcolm : Mmm , woman . I think that ll teach you to parade around in a skimpy little robe , now wo nt it ?
Olivia : I should wear it around the house more often .
Malcolm : I wo nt complain .
Phyllis : Did you see that ?
Damon : Is that why you called ? We ve been all through this .
Phyllis : Okay , no , no , no , not-- look at this . This guy here-- he s a guy that I saw coming out of Dominic s motel room .
Damon : So ?
Phyllis : So I think-- I think he s the key to getting you cleared . I have nt figured out how I m gon na use it yet--
Damon : Phyllis , baby , please , baby , please , baby , please .
Phyllis : Something . There -- no .
Damon : Do me a favor . Leave it alone . Let your attorney do his thing . I ll be fine .
Phyllis : You ll be fine . Is that why you re sitting here alone , staring at your coffee ?
Damon : I m meeting someone .
Phyllis : Oh . It s your ex - wife ? I guess I should leave . I do nt wanna screw up your action .
Damon : It ai nt like that .
Phyllis : Do you want it to be like that ?
Phyllis : Oh . There s my answer . What about Adrienne ? Is she interested ?
Damon : Adrienne and I shared a life and a tragedy . I know you understand that .
Phyllis : Of course , yeah .
Damon : Who knows what the future holds ?
Phyllis : Who knows ? Guess you re about to find out .
Adrienne : Hi , Damon .
Damon : Hey .
Adrienne : Phyllis . We meet again .
Phyllis : Yes , we do .
Adrienne : Sorry I m late . Um , were you discussing the case ?
Phyllis : Yes , we were . We re about to get out of this mess , both of us .
Damon : We hope .
Adrienne : Damon told me what you re doing for him-- holding back information that would clear you . That s incredibly kind .
Phyllis : What can I say ? I m a saint . You d do it for me , would nt you , Damon ?
Damon : Yes , I would .
Phyllis : Whatever goes around comes around . Right ? Well , uh , I got ta go . Ahem . See you later .
Damon : Thanks .
Nikki : Where s Brittany ?
Bobby : She went out . I told her you and I needed to talk .
Nikki : I m so glad you re back . We were very worried .
Bobby : Bet you re wonderin where I went .
Nikki : Well , i am curious .
Bobby : After I left here , I just got in my car and I just started to drive . I really did nt know where I was goin . And I just drove all night , just watching the white lines disappear underneath the car . And I was just thinking about my brother and everything you told me , just trying to make sense of it , and I ended up in Cleveland .
Nikki : Cleveland ? You drove all that way ? Why ?
Bobby : My parents are buried in Cleveland-- Ridgecrest cemetery . So I went to their grave and I told them what had happened to their son .
Nikki : Oh , Bobby , that must have been so hard for you .
Bobby : Yeah , it was probably the hardest thing I ve ever done .
Nikki : I m so sorry . Is there anything that I can do ? ( Door opens ) ( Door closes )
Victor : Hello , Bobby .
Bobby : Hello , Victor .
J.T. : Mac , is that y--
Brittany : Why did nt you tell me ? You knew all along why Bobby took off , did nt you ?
J.T. : I only found out it was Bobby s brother a few hours ago when Paul told me .
Brittany : Then why did nt you tell me ?
J.T. : I was in a weird position . Paul s my boss . He was hired by Nikki . It could have gotten messy . I would have lost my job .
Brittany : Well , I guess I could understand that .
J.T. : So , uh , Bobby told you everything ?
Brittany : Yeah . Nikki killed his brother . It s unbelievable . No wonder the woman has been acting so weird . Can you imagine having that on your conscience ?
J.T. : Look , it was an accident . She was a kid . If anybody should feel guilty , it s that father of hers , leaving a loaded weapon in that house and getting drunk and passing out when he s supposed to be watching the kids ?
Brittany : I feel so bad for Bobby . This must be tearing him up .
J.T. : So why are nt you with him ?
Brittany : He wanted to be alone with Nikki . What ?
J.T. : Oh , I did nt say anything .
Brittany : I know what you re thinking . It s the same thing I m thinking . Bobby obviously does nt need me .
Lauren : No , no , you want to have thoughts of work . Come on . I m just here trying to test your resolve .
Michael : Well , apparently , I ve flunked .
Lauren : Yes , apparently--
Michael : What d you do ? Is this a double knot ?
Lauren : No , no , let me do it . Here . Okay , one last peek , just for you . Got it ?
Michael : Yeah .
Lauren : All right . Here it goes .
Michael : You are such a tease . You are the worst tease there is .
Lauren : Uh , rephrase , please . The best tease , do nt you think ?
Michael : Well , since you re feeling so , uh , clever and quick - witted this evening , um ...
Lauren : What ?
Michael : Why do nt we see who stays in their clothes the longest ?
Lauren : Just what are you challenging me to do ?
Michael : Word association game -- it s fiendishly clever . I ll explain the rules , only we ll customize them a bit .
Lauren : Strip wordplay ? ( Chuckles ) you re on .
Michael : Good .
Lauren : Yeah ? Prepare to get naked .
Adrienne : So your lawyers still do nt have a strategy ?
Damon : They re working on it .
Adrienne : When s your trial ?
Damon : Not sure yet .
Adrienne : But they ve set one for her . I wonder what that means .
Damon : Honestly , I do nt know .
Adrienne : Sounds like Phyllis is trying to keep your spirits up .
Damon : She s a good friend .
Adrienne : Just a friend ? There s definitely still chemistry between you two .
Damon : Adrienne , are you jealous ?
Olivia : ( Sighs ) do you want something to drink ? Cause I ve got some wine open .
Malcolm : No . Hey , hey . Shh . Shh . I am happy just like this .
Olivia : ( Giggles )
Malcolm : I got a question for you , though .
Olivia : Mm - hmm .
Malcolm : This , uh , this robe , it ca nt possibly fit you , so whose is it ?
Olivia : This robe ?
Malcolm : Mm - hmm , this robe .
Olivia : Well , you know , I just keep it around for my many lovers .
Malcolm : Oh ! Oh , is that right ?
Olivia : You know I m kidding , right ?
Malcolm : Well , lie to me if you re not .
Olivia : Actually , it s been awhile for me .
Malcolm : Well , I m not gon na lie to you . I could nt tell . You re not outta practice .
Olivia : Thank you .
Malcolm : Oh , Liv ... you really are a sweet woman .
Olivia : I bet you say that to all the ladies .
Malcolm : No , no , no , no . Do nt do that . Do nt do that . I mean it . I do nt think you give yourself enough credit . You are an incredible , beautiful woman .
Olivia : More incredible than Adrienne ?
Malcolm : ( Sighs )
Dru : Honey , why would it bother me ?
Lily : I do nt know . It s just kind of unusual , is nt it , two brothers marrying two sisters ?
Dru : I do nt know . I do nt know . Why ?
Lily : Well , I m just trying to figure out what makes Uncle Malcolm tick . And did you know him before you knew Dad ?
Dru : Actually , I knew your dad first . Why ?
Lily : Was he as cool when he was younger as he is now ?
Dru : Your dad ?
Lily : No , Uncle Malcolm .
Dru : Um ... okay , listen . Your Uncle Malcolm , he invented the word cool .
Lily : Yeah ?
Dru : Oh , yes . He would walk into a room , and he would light up the whole thing . He had all kinds of women , okay ? I d say , girl , get in line .
Lily : ( Laughs )
Neil : Ha ha ha ha . You girls talking about me again , huh ?
Dru : Oh ! Hi , hon .
Neil : Hi , baby . Hi , lily .
Lily : Hey , Daddy .
Dru : Yeah .
Lily : ( Chuckles )
Ashley : I m not going to defend myself , Jack , especially to you .
Jack : You know what he s doing , do nt you ? He s trying to get in the back door so he can take over Jabot .
Ashley : Use your brain . If that was truly his intention , he could ve done that by now , do nt you think ?
Jack : It s been his intention all along . It goes back years now .
Ashley : All right , whatever . Look , he s not quite that diabolical . And he never meant to cause as much damage as he has .
Jack : Oh , I beg to differ .
Ashley : You re paranoid . Understandably , but you are paranoid .
Jack : I m paranoid ? Answer one question for me . What s in it for him ? I mean , what s he getting outta this ?
Ashley : Couple of things . First of all , he finds it challenging . Second of all , he gets the satisfaction of helping me .
Jack : Oh , do nt make me laugh . You honestly believe he s in this out of the goodness of his guilty little heart ?
Ashley : Obviously , it does nt matter what I believe , so I m going to bed . Good night . ( Doorbell rings )
Phyllis : Special delivery .
Jack : Wow . What a nice surprise .
Phyllis : Really ? It s not too late ?
Jack : No , no , no . Come in , come in .
Phyllis : Oh , thanks .
Jack : I was just about to pour myself a cognac . Actually , a triple .
Phyllis : Ohh , a triple cognac day . Hmm . Me too .
Jack : How about I pour you one ?
Phyllis : You know , it s much too adult for what I have in mind .
Jack : Oh ?
Phyllis : Yeah . Oh , you have a fire . Look at that . That s perfect . That s perfect because wait till you see ... ta - da ! ( Laughs )
Jack : Marshmallows ?
Phyllis : Yes . And , uh , drumroll , please . ( Imitates drumroll ) chocolate . And-- oh , oh , oh , what do we have here ? Uh , graham crackers .
Jack : You re not serious .
Phyllis : I am serious . I m deadly serious . I would never joke about s m ores . This is my favorite food in the whole world .
Jack : Well , then . Let me go get a couple of skewers .
Phyllis : I ll be waiting . ( Giggles )
Victor : So you have come back ?
Bobby : Yes . And I wanted to apologize for freakin everybody out . I just needed to get away .
Victor : Well , I understand that feeling , Bobby .
Bobby : I m sure you would .
Victor : Yeah . I m gon na call it a night . See you in a minute , sweetheart .
Nikki : All right . I ll be up shortly .
Victor : Good night .
Bobby : Good night , Victor . Uh ... listen , you never did give me any details .
Nikki : About what ?
Bobby : From your 5th birthday party .
Nikki : Do we have to get into that right now ?
Bobby : Look , I wanna know .
Nikki : Well , I do nt really remember that much . We were just innocent kids . We --we did nt know what we were doing . We we re fighting over my father s gun . We -- we had no idea about the possible consequences .
Bobby : Well , do you remember what his last words were ?
Nikki : Bobby , it was decades ago .
Bobby : Look , I wanna know everything I can about him . I m just trying to get some closure here . I m sure you can understand that .
Nikki : Of course I understand , more than you know . But as far as every last , tiny detail ... I ca nt really help you .
Bobby : Well , do you have any pictures of him ?
Nikki : I do have one .
Bobby : Great . Can I see it ?
Nikki : Sure .
Bobby : Yeah . That s my big brother .
Nikki : What , you ve never even seen a picture of him ?
Bobby : It s -- it s probably been years . I mean , when he disappeared , they put pictures of him all over the place and ... then after we moved to Cleveland , my mother put them away . And when they died , I do nt know what happened to them .
Nikki : Oh , Bobby .
Bobby : You know , he ... he kind of looks like me . Do nt you think ?
Nikki : Yeah , he does , a little .
Bobby : Uh ... Nikki , can I have a few minutes alone ?
Nikki : Oh , of course . Um , yeah . If you need anything , I ll just be upstairs .
Bobby : Yeah , thanks .
J.T. : Come on , Brittany . Of course Bobby needs you .
Brittany : How am I supposed to know that ? I realize he did nt mean to hurt me . He had just got this horrible news , and he s trying to deal with it .
J.T. : But what ?
Brittany : But I hate that he s talking to Nikki right now and not to me . Am I wrong to feel that way ?
J.T. : Maybe he wants to talk to you , but he ca nt .
Brittany : But he can talk to Nikki ?
J.T. : She s involved . He probably wants to keep you out of this .
Brittany : But I m his wife . We should be able to discuss anything .
J.T. : No , it s -- it s not like you ve been married forever . Bobby s a private person . He probably wants to deal with this on his own . It s easier for him .
Brittany : I ca nt believe you re making excuses for him .
J.T. : Oh , I m not making excuses for him .
Brittany : It sure sounds like it to me . What happened to the old J.T. ? Who used to tell me what a jerk Bobby is ? You probably think I deserve all this .
J.T. : Even if I wanted to say , I told you so , I would nt do it cause that would hurt you . I would never do that .
Brittany : Thank you .
J.T. : Yeah . You re welcome . Anyway , I got ta study .
Brittany : Is it okay if I stay here for awhile ? I do nt want to go back to the ranch yet .
J.T. : Yeah , sure . I ll just be in my room , studying .
Brittany : J.T. ? Things are gon na get better , right , between Bobby and me ?
J.T. : Yeah . Sure they will .
J.T. : Hang in there , princess .

Michael : Who could believe you could be such a stickler ?

Lauren : ( Laughs )
Michael : You lose .
Phyllis : Mmm . ( Laughs ) the sheer bliss .
Jack : It s sure a lot more clever than cognac .
Phyllis : Oh , yeah . Absolutely . It almost-- almost makes me forget about Drucilla .
Jack : Head of a whole division at Newman-- God , you coulda knocked me over with a feather .
Phyllis : Oh , God , I just wanted to run Nicholas over with a bulldozer . Oh , although , I kind of see his point , to be honest . He does nt want me too visible with this cloud hanging over my head .
Jack : Oh , the cloud we re , uh , avoiding talking about ?
Phyllis : What s there to talk about ? ( Chuckles ) guess you saw the paper .
Jack : Yeah . The trial s coming up quick .
Phyllis : Yep . A little too quick .
Jack : What , are you worried Michael wo nt be ready ?
Phyllis : ( Sighs ) do nt get mad , okay ?
Jack : Uh - oh . What ?
Phyllis : Yeah , just listen . Um , Christine and Paul found some proof that-- that will clear me of this entire conspiracy . I mean , it ll show that I was nt a part of it . And Michael-- Michael wanted to use it right away .
Jack : And why has nt he ?
Phyllis : Listen , it s evidence that ll clear me , but it will crucify Damon . It s horribly incriminating .
Jack : Wait a second . You re telling me your lawyer is sitting on evidence , evidence that could clear you ?
Phyllis : Yes , I-- yes , I told him not to use it . And with the trial coming up , it s just a big mess .
Jack : Wait . So -- so in the meantime , you live with anxiety and uncertainty--
Phyllis : Jack , it s -- let s drop it , okay ? I do nt want to talk about it . Let s talk about you , your day , your incredible new job . I bet you do nt have a care in the world .
Jack : Well , you d lose that bet .
Bobby s voice : You ve reached Bobby Marsino . I m not in right now . Leave me a message and I ll get back to you . ( Beep )
Brittany : Hi , sweetheart . It s me . I wanted to tell you I m at the loft . I know you wanted to spend some time alone with Nikki , so I m gon na stay here until I hear back from you . Call me when you re ready for me to come home . I love you .
Damon : You have nt answered my question .
Adrienne : Of course I m jealous . Women are territorial . Or have nt you noticed ?
Damon : And here I was thinkin men were the territorial ones .
Adrienne : That s so like you .
Damon : What is ?
Adrienne : You think you re enlightened , but you do nt know the first thing about women . You never did .
Damon : Really ?
Adrienne : Mm - hmm .
Damon : Well , now why did nt you seize the opportunity to enlighten me when we were married ?
Adrienne : And bruise that fragile male ego ? Huh ! So what about you ? Are you jealous that I m seeing other men ?
Damon : You are ?
Damon : Where ? Here in Genoa City ?
Adrienne : Uh - huh .
Damon : Now you ai nt been in town but a couple of weeks .
Malcolm : Olivia , why would you bring up Adrienne at a time like this ?
Olivia : I m just checking out the competition .
Malcolm : She s a friend .
Olivia : Just a friend ?
Malcolm : Look , she s got an ex , and it s a long story .
Olivia : Oh , what s that got to do with anything ?
Malcolm : I need you to listen to me , all right ? Holding you like this ... talking to you like this ... and making love to you ... that really feels like a slice of paradise .
Olivia : Why do I feel a but coming ?
Malcolm : I worry about you , Liv .
Olivia : Why ?
Malcolm : I do nt want you to get hurt .
Olivia : Maybe I will and maybe I wo nt . Look , as long as you re honest with me , we wo nt have any problems .
Malcolm : You really trust me like that ?
Olivia : I do now ... cause this new Malcolm is much more upfront than the old one .
Malcolm : I hope that s true .
Olivia : Anyway , I m a big girl . I can take care of myself .
Malcolm : ( Chuckles ) you know , those are famous last words .
Olivia : But there is someone else in your life who might not be able to protect herself as-- as well as I can .
Malcolm : You re talking about Lily .
Olivia : I just ca nt help wondering ... ( Sighs ) if the results of the paternity test do nt turn out the way you re hoping--
Malcolm : Okay , Olivia , who says that I m actually hoping to be her father ? I just -- I want to know .
Olivia : Right . As I said , if the results are nt what you want ... you might wander off . I mean , I - I hope you do nt , but I ll survive . Lily , on the other hand--
Malcolm : Look , do we really have to talk about this right now ?
Olivia : Yeah . It does have to be said because , honey , that little girl is getting more and more attached to you every day .
Malcolm : Okay , so what ? You think I should pull back ?
Olivia : Do nt you ?
Malcolm : God , as much as I hate to admit it , yeah , you re probably right . I do need to put on the brakes . But , Olivia , I have to be so careful if I do that . I would never forgive myself if I did anything to hurt that girl .
Dru : Oh , honey , I - I did nt hear you come in .
Neil : Obviously . So what are you two talking about ?
Dru : Oh , nothing , honey . Girlie stuff . Nothing you d be interested in .
Neil : Yeah ? Seriously , what are you two up to ? Thanks .
Dru : Oh , we were just organizing our cd collection , you know ? But Nancy Drew here , she keeps asking me a bunch of questions . ( Laughs )
Neil : What sort of questions ?
Lily : Nothing . I m just -- I m still worried about Uncle Malcolm .
Neil : Yeah . Lily , Uncle Malcolm , he s been through a lot . You know , he s lived in Africa where the values are different , and it s shaken him up , right down to his core . He s not sure he fits in here anymore .
Lily : But do you really think that s all it is ?
Neil : We just got ta give him some time , be there for him , okay ? If I know my brother , he ll be all right .
J.T. : Britt , did I leave my biology book out ...
Phyllis : Jack , if something s going on ...
Jack : Nothing I want to bore you with .
Phyllis : Do his initials start with Victor Newman ?
Jack : Good guess .
Phyllis : ( Chuckle ) the same man you swore you would never let under your skin ?
Jack : God , this chocolate really is good , is nt it ?
Phyllis : Mm - hmm . Okay , you can change the subject .
Jack : Yeah , I think we better , or else ...
Phyllis : Oh . Or else ... or else what ?
Jack : Or else I ll start looking at this marshmallow as Victor s head , all charred and bloated .
Phyllis : ( Chuckles ) as long as I can look at it as Dominic Hughes head .
Jack : So what do you say , one more for the road ?
Phyllis : Oh ! Oh , do you want me to leave ?
Jack : No . Oh , no ! I -- that was just a bad choice of words .
Phyllis : Well , it s getting late . So are you s-- what ?
Jack : You got this little , uh , marshmallow thing ...
Phyllis : I do ? Where ?
Jack : Right-- right here .
Phyllis : Um ... I should go .
Jack : No . You-- you do nt have to leave .
Phyllis : Can you hold me , Jack ? Oh , can you just ...
Brad : Whatever happens with J.T , I want you to promise me one thing .
Nikki : I m trying to help Bobby cope with this .
Brittany : That s my job .
Dru : Give me the damn package , Phyllis .
Phyllis : Say please .

### Dialogue:
Steffy : You ca nt deny it , Hope . If you are intimate with Liam tonight , it s adultery .
Hope : That s not how I see it .
Steffy : How can you say that ? The whole world knows about your high moral standards .
Hope : In our hearts , Liam and I are already married .
Steffy : You re rationalizing .
Hope : The only reason we re not is because you wo nt sign the annulment .
Steffy : That is not the point . In the eyes of God , in the eyes of the state , you are not husband and wife . Liam and I are . So why do nt you just own it , Hope ? You re planning to commit adultery .
Brooke : I know this is nt what you want , but it s what Hope and Liam want .
Ridge : Logan , he s still married to Steffy . They ve only been apart for a few weeks .
Brooke : It s over .
Ridge : Well , what if it is nt ? What if you re wrong ? What do you think this is gon na do to Hope if she gives herself to Liam tonight and then the divorce does nt happen ?
Katie : Hey .
Liam : ( Chuckles ) Hey .
Katie : ( Sighs ) How are you feeling ?
Liam : Uh , a lot going on .
Katie : Yeah . I - I was with Hope when she made her decision .
Liam : Wow !
Katie : ( Giggles )
Liam : No secrets in this family , are there ?
Katie : Yeah , no . ( Laughs ) I m just so happy things are working out for the two of you .
Liam : I do nt think I tell you this nearly enough , but your support means a lot to me .
Katie : Well , I wish your father felt the same way . ( Sighs )
Liam : He will . He will .
Katie : Yes , he will . ( Chuckles ) But tonight is not about your father or anyone else . It s just about you and Hope , just the two of you , moving on in this new phase in your life .
Liam : ( Sighs )
Katie : Mm . ( Giggles )
Brooke : Hope and Liam are ready for this .
Ridge : She s a wonderful girl . I know she s very much in love with Liam , and he s getting a divorce . Normally , I d say fine , just explore the relationship however you want .
Brooke : But you re sensitive to Steffy .
Ridge : It s not even that . Hope has taken a very public position on this . It means a lot to her , and you know that .
Brooke : Hope is not compromising . She feels she s married in every way that matters .
Ridge : Is that honestly the way she feels , though ?
Brooke : Yes !
Ridge : Then she s not the young woman that I ve known all these years .
Steffy : It s immoral , and you know it . You re trying to convince yourself that it s not , but in your heart , you know that this is wrong .
Hope : ( Scoffs ) I m sorry . Are you , of all people , trying to preach morality to me ?
Steffy : Oh , dont-- do nt do that . You know what I m saying is true .
Hope : You re being a hypocrite , Steffy . You do nt believe any of that , but you re using it to hang on to Liam .
Steffy : We are not talking about me . And you re right , I do nt believe it . But you do , and that makes you a hypocrite . You re the poster girl for abstinence . That is what you re known for . You are famous for this one principle , and now you re gon na go behind closed doors and defy it ?
Hope : My message is about more than just abstinence . It s about making a choice , doing what s right for you , not being pressured ( and staying true to yourself , which I have been and will continue to be . And tonight , I m going to be true to the love I share with Liam . You do nt have control over that , not any longer .
Liam : So Stephanie came by this afternoon .
Katie : ( Chuckles ) That does nt surprise me .
Liam : Yeah . She thinks I do nt know what I m doing .
Katie : And I bet she thinks she does .
Liam : ( Chuckles ) It s all right . I m over it .
Katie : Listen , Liam , none of us would want you to be with Hope if you were nt committed to her , but you are , or you would nt be taking this step . This is gon na be a wonderful night . It s the beginning of your life together as a couple . So cherish it , okay , cause I know Hope will .
Liam : ( Sighs ) I love her so much , Katie .
Katie : I know you do . It s the one thing I ve never doubted . Mm .
Liam : ( Whispers ) Thank you .
Bill : Hey , baby .
Katie : Hi .
Bill : Where s my son ?
Katie : Uh , well , if I had to guess , I would say he s with Hope .
Bill : Oh , boy , another hand - holding session ...
Katie : Mm .
Bill : And another night of disappointment .
Katie : I do nt think so .
Bill : What ?
Katie : Hope is moving in with Liam tonight . She s decided to take the relationship to the next level .
Bill : Never happen .
Katie : Oh , I think it will , despite Steffy s best efforts to keep them apart .
Bill : The little girl has gotten cold feet before .
Katie : Not this time . I was with her when she decided . She s ready .
Bill : Hmm .
Katie : Oh , I m sorry , baby . I know how much you hate to lose .
Bill : Lose ?
Katie : Yeah .
Bill : I m not losing anything .
Katie : No ? Mm . ( Giggles )
Bill : In fact , that s the best news I ve had all day .
Katie : Uh - huh .
Brooke : Hope knows what she s doing .
Ridge : I wish I could be so sure .
Brooke : Steffy has to let go .
Ridge : She will , if that s how it works out . But it s also possible this night may not be as perfect as Hope and Liam are expecting .
Hope : ( Sighs ) ( Exhales )
Liam : Busy ?
Steffy : No . Uh , no , I was just , um ... come on in . I just ... I did nt expect to see you tonight .
Liam : Um , we need to talk .
Steffy : Okay .
Liam : I ve made a , um , decision . Uh , Hope -- Hope and I have made a decision , and , um , I just thought you should hear it from me in - instead of somebody else .
Steffy : I already know .
Liam : You do ?
Steffy : Hope was here earlier on .
Liam : Yeah , so-- so she told you . ( Clears throat )
Steffy : That you two are spending the night together ? Yes , she did .
Steffy : ( Sniffles )
Liam : You know how I feel about you .
Steffy : ( Sniffles )
Liam : I mean , so many ways , you re ... I - I do nt regret one moment of our marriage and--
Steffy : Liam , do nt . Do nt . I think we know how much we mean to each other . That s not what this night is about . ( Inhales quickly ) I do have one question for you-- are you absolutely certain you are ready for this ? Because after tonight , nothing will ever be the same for us again .
Katie : You really mean that ?
Bill : Absolutely , I mean it . Liam and Hope doing the horizontal tango ? Terrific .
Katie : I see . You re being sarcastic .
Bill : I m not being sarcastic . My son s in a cold sweat to sleep with a sweet little virgin ? Let him do it . Teach him a lesson .
Katie : A lesson ?
Bill : The difference between having a girl and having a woman .
Katie : Ahh , I see .
Bill : And so will he , and it wo nt be so bright when he wakes up in the morning .
Katie : You think she ll disappoint him .
Bill : I know she ll disappoint him . I guarantee she will disappoint him . I ll bet my Ferrari on it .
Katie : ( Chuckles )
Bill : You know I calls em as I sees em , and I m usually right .
Katie : Not this time , sugar . Those two are crazy about each other . They re in for a night they ll never forget .
Bill : They re in for a night- mare they ll never forget .
Katie : It s going to be wonderful .
Bill : It s going to be a train wreck . Liam is going to be completely disappointed , and you can take that to the bank .
Hope : ( Sighs )
Liam : Yeah , I am ready .
Steffy : Is Hope ?
Liam : It s her idea .
Steffy : I wonder who talked her into that .
Liam : Steffy .
Steffy : No , it does nt matter . I m sure everyone s weighed in by now .
Liam : Um ... ( Chuckles ) Yeah . Yeah , on-- on both sides , actually . I had a visit from Stephanie , believe it or not , and , uh , my dad had some things to say about it .
Steffy : I didnt-- I did nt want anyone pressuring you . You know that ?
Liam : No , I know that . I know . They came all on their own . They love you , Steffy . They wanted to support you . Heard a lot of things I knew already-- what a wonderful , beautiful woman you are . They did nt need to sell me on that .
Steffy : But not enough to save our marriage ?
Liam : No .
Steffy : I just want to be your wife .
Liam : ( Chuckles ) It was good , you know ? It was-- it was better than good . It was amazing .
Steffy : Yeah , we were ... ( Laughs ) We were great .
Liam : Yeah , we were .
Steffy : ( Sighs ) Hmm . Our time together was , um , short and sweet . I ll never forget those amazing days and those incredible nights . You know , I ll always believe ` that , um , it would have worked out with us if I had nt messed up . And you know what ? Liam , I - I know ... I know you re gon na come back to me , because I m in your heart , and you are in mine . If you go through with this tonight , it s only gon na hurt Hope . Do nt do that to her . Do nt do it to us .
Bill : There s still time , Katie .
Katie : For what ?
Bill : Call your little niece . Tell her to give this some more thought .
Katie : Like six months more ?
Bill : She s in for a letdown . Liam belongs with Steffy . It is nt gon na work with Hope .
Katie : ( Sighs )
Bill : Spare her the pain . Call her .
Katie : You re wrong . Tonight is a new chapter in Liam s life , and it s not with Steffy . So you better accept that , because you re about to be blessed with a beautiful new daughter - in - law .
Ridge : I wonder if Steffy knows .
Brooke : About tonight ? I hope not .
Ridge : Me , too . She s gon na be crushed .
Brooke : Steffy had her chance . It did nt work out , and now it s Hope s turn . ( Sighs ) Tonight is so significant for my daughter-- the first time she s going to be with a man . It s a very significant time in a young woman s life . I just want it to be beautiful for her .
Hope : ( Sighs )
Liam : Part of me will always love you , Steffy . That s why this is so hard . I came here because I have to make you understand . I m starting a new life tonight , and you should do the same .
Steffy : ( Sniffles ) Is that honestly what you want ? For me to just give up all my love for you and just give it to someone else ? Liam , at the restaurant , I know what it did to you when I was with Rick .
Liam : Steffy , it s over .
Steffy : Love does nt just end , not when it s real .
Liam : I know .
Steffy : ( Sniffles )
Liam : I know that . I have to set a course for my life now .
Steffy : ( Sniffles ) Okay , so what about ... what about all of our memories ? ( Sobs ) You re just gon na push it out of your mind ?
Liam : You have to let that go . We both do . We both have to let it go .
Steffy : ( Sniffles ) No , the best time of my life ? No . ( Sobs ) No , I ca nt . I wo nt . ( Sighs shakily ) ( Sniffles ) ( Sobbing )
Liam : Steffy .
Steffy : Just please stay . Please .
Liam : I ca nt .
Steffy : ( Sighs ) She made you miserable , and I helped you . It -- it is not gon na change .
Liam : It already has changed .
Steffy : She is the same person . She is exactly like her mother . She s exactly like all the Logan women . No , it -- it wo nt be the same that it is for us , the passion that we have for each other , the passion for life . My God , look at me . I love you . You know , you , uh ... ( Sighs ) You know that I love you . And I know that I ve made mistakes , and I m sorry , but ... ( Voice breaking ) ( Sniffles ) You know , I - I do nt want you to break that -- everything that-- that we cherish , and I do nt want you to leave me . I do nt want you to go to Hope . Just do nt go .
Liam : I have to go .
Steffy : You do nt have to do -- no , you dont--
Liam : I have to go . I have to go .
Steffy : You do nt have to do anything .
Steffy : You are my husband , and I am your wife . You do nt have to leave .
Liam : ( Sighs )
Steffy : Just stay . ( Laughs )

### Dialogue:
Kayla : You re kidding me .
Steve : What s your pleasure ?
Kayla : So this is really true ? You re a bartender now ?
Steve : Uh - huh . In a sedate club in a quiet neighborhood . You know , the light from adventure and danger would take about eight million years to reach this job .
Kayla : Do you know what bartenders do ? They take orders . You hate taking orders . You will have to take orders and it will drive you crazy , and you will start smashing things .
Steve : That s in my past , baby . Come here . Sit down . Please ? Come here . This is the first day of my new life . And I am gon na prove to you that there s nothing more important to me in this world ... than getting you back .
Joey : I just -- I do nt get why you left . It was really great being with you . I wanted you to spend the whole night .
Jade : Joey , there will be lots more nights .
Joey : Look , I checked my mom s schedule . She has a medical conference out of town next weekend , which means we can spend the whole weekend together . Wake up together ...
Jade : You re such a romantic .
Joey : You make me one .
Hal : Get your filthy hands off my daughter .
Nicole : So did you have a good time at camp ?
Parker : Yeah . It was pretty cool .
Nicole : Awesome .
Parker : Did you get the picture I sent you ?
Nicole : I sure did . But it looked like you were getting some kind of award . You did nt tell me what it was for .
Parker : Swimming . I was the fastest minnow .
Nicole : What ? That s awesome ! Five it out . Bam .
Parker : My dad was a good swimmer .
Nicole : I know . How s your mom doing ?
Parker : Better . She s not as sad as she was .
Dario : So , Nicole ... who s the other man ?
Nicole : [ Laughs ]
Deimos : The Chopin group ? Never heard of them .
Brady : We think they might be involved in my son s kidnapping .
Deimos : Brady ... I wish I can help you , but , as I said , I ve never heard of them .
John : Well , how about a man by the name of giorgis Papadopoulos ?
Deimos : You do realize how common a name like that is in Greece , right ? That s like me asking you if you know George smith .
John : Yeah , well , this George smith runs an import / export business out of Athens .
Deimos : There are literally dozens of import / export businesses in Athens .
Brady : So you do nt even know one giorgis Papadopoulos that does business in Athens ?
John : Well , perhaps you need a memory aid . See , here is a picture of you and a gentleman by the name of giorgis Papadopoulos right outside his import / export business in Athens . So obviously , you know the man . And apparently , you did business with him many years ago .
Brady : This would be the part where you start explaining things .
Summer : Theresa ? Oh , my God , what have I done ?
Male announcer : Like sands through the hourglass , so are the days of our lives .
Kayla : Look , I know you think that you can do this job . But you ca nt . I was a bartender , I know it s repetitive , it s tedious . The customer s always right . You have to listen and agree with any moron for the price of a drink . I think that you ... you will self - destruct .
Steve : No , I wo nt .
Kayla : People with short fuses should nt be bartenders . Look , I know that you re upset about this thing with Fynn--
Steve : No , come on--
Kayla : But this is not the answer .
Steve : You know what , to hell with Fynn . To hell with him . I know he wants you . But you still love me . And when I show you that I can change , you ll be ready to admit it .
Kayla : This is nt about changing jobs . It s about changing you as a person . It s not possible .
Steve : Watch me .
Kayla : And what happens when john calls you up , and he wants you to go undercover in , like , Bangkok or something ? Or you see some bully picking on somebody -- not that you could ever really turn your back in a situation like that , but just to say you did . Eventually , you would resent me . For not letting you be ... you .
Steve : I m not me without you , sweetness . Without my family . I ca nt lose you again . I wo nt .
Joey : Hi , I m Joey Johnson .
Hal : You do nt think I know who you are , boy ?
Joey : Look , I just want you to know , I care a lot about jade . And I dont--
Hal : You do nt give a damn about her . You ruined her . You put us through hell --running away , breaking the law , jumping bail . She was never raised like that .
Jade : Dad , I was nt raised at all .
Hal : You know what , do nt start with me . This is your fault .
Jade : No , it is nt , okay ? It was nt his idea to run away , it was mine .
Hal : Well , then you should ve stopped her ! She s had problems before , but she s never been in trouble with the law till she met you . But now you re coming home--
Joey : Hey , now you keep your filthy hands off her !
Deimos : Yes , that is me . And I ll take your word that s Papadopoulos . But I did business with a lot of people . I really do nt remember him .
John : The man has ties to the Greek mob .
Deimos : Again , I ll take your word for it . But if I did business with this man , it was over 30 years ago . Back then , I was totally legit . You do know the reason I went to prison had nothing to do with business , right ? Your grandfather lied , and I was found guilty of murdering the woman I loved . If that man has any connection whatsoever to this kidnapping , I know nothing about it .
John : Well , you know , you re gon na have to forgive me if I do nt just take your word for it . Now , if there s a connection , I m gon na find it . So I think you d be better off if you just told us right now , because you d save us all a lot of time and heartache , you know ?
Deimos : Is that how it s gon na be from now on ? Every crime , every injustice against the Kiriakis family is immediately attributed to me ?
Brady : I think that started when you decided to poison Maggie .
Deimos : I know I ca nt make you believe this , but I would never have anything to do with having an innocent child kidnapped . Never .
Summer : Oh , thank God . Thank God . Okay , Theresa . Theresa . Theresa ? No , I ca nt ... sorry . Every year we look for a better way
Nicole : This is Daniel s son , Parker . Parker , this is my friend , Dario .
Dario : Hey . Parker . I m sorry , I should nt have interrupted . Looks like you guys were having a pretty serious conversation .
Nicole : Well , it s okay . Actually , I was just gon na tell Parker that I would love for him and his mom to come over for dinner sometime soon .
Parker : Chicken fingers ?
Nicole : Uh , they re your favorite , are nt they ?
Dario : Uh , they re everybody s favorite .
Parker : Can you come , too ?
Dario : Yeah , if Nicole wants me to .
Parker : Please ?
Deimos : As I told your grandfather , I know it s gon na take some time before all of you trust me after what I did .
Brady : You are very right about that .
Deimos : And if I knew something , Brady , I would certainly tell you , but I do nt . You re wasting your time here with me . But I do hope to God that you find your son . And soon .
Brady : Deimos ... if you re lying to me , I will come back here , and I will kill you .
Theresa : [ Gasping ]
Brady : Theresa , where are you ?
Theresa : Summer s room . She attacked me , Brady . She s gone .
Brady : We re on our way .
Steve : Can you tell me what s going on with Joe ? I do nt know if he s deliberately avoiding me , or if he s just busy , but I have nt talked to him in a while .
Kayla : Things have nt been very good . We fight all the time about jade . He wanted her to move in with us when her parents kicked her out . I said no .
Steve : Yeah . Well , I know it s hard for you , but I think you ... I do nt know , you need to cool it about jade .
Nicole : Really ? What , like make the guest room up for her ?
Steve : No , no , I mean , just be careful what you say about her to Joe . When you trash her , it just makes him more defensive . Okay , listen , I ll tell you what . I ll keep calling him . You should nt have to handle all this on your own .
Kayla : I think it s bigger than just the two of us helping him . Last night , I heard him crying in his sleep .
Steve : What ?
Kayla : He s still having those nightmares about Ava . And he wo nt see the therapist that he saw before .
Steve : Well , he s got to see someone .
Kayla : I know . That s why I made an appointment with Marlena tonight .
Steve : Good .
Jade : Tell me something , Hal , okay ? When did you decide to start being a dad ?
Hal : Look , your mom wants you home now , and I m gon na take you home . Get you away from this little creep .
Joey : Hey , you know what s creepy ? Kicking your own daughter out of the house and then showing up to drag her back . You ca nt just be a dad when you feel like it .
Hal : You do nt know what you re talking about .
Joey : I know you re a terrible father !
Hal : I never laid a finger on her !
Joey : You made her life miserable ! Did that make you feel like a man ? Putting her down ?
Hal : Look , you little jerk--
Joey : Newsflash , neither one of us gives a damn about what you think . You ca nt keep up apart .
Hal : Somebody needs to teach you--
Fynn : What the hell is going on here , huh ?
Brady : Theresa , are you okay ? Are you -- what happened to you ? Do you need an ambulance ?
Theresa : Brady , stop ! Do nt worry about me , we need to find summer .
Maggie : Summer ? Are you running away again ?
Summer : You ll all be happy to know that I m leaving .
Maggie : What is this really all about ?
Deimos : Victor ?
Victor : Bad time ?
Deimos : Not at all . Wo nt you come in ?
Victor : No , we can talk right here .
Deimos : About ?
Victor : I ve come to accept your offer .
Hal : Not around him about it . My dad .
Joey : And I m not gon na let you order
Hal : That little dirtbag s not gon na get away talking to me like that !
Joey : And I m not gon na let you order jade around !
Fynn : Just cool it , all right ? You re in enough trouble as it is with the law .
Hal : So is my daughter , thanks to him !
Jade : Why do nt you calm down , okay ? We ll find someplace to talk .
Hal : Not around him .
Jade : Fine .
Joey : No .
Jade : Joey . He s right . You calm down , I ll handle my dad .
Hal : You ai nt gon na handle me , girl !
Fynn : Are you sure ?
Jade : Yeah . Come on .
Joey : No , jade , wait . Jade !
Fynn : Joey , Joey , she s right , okay ? Just cool down , man . Tell me what happened .
Joey : Nothing happened . Her dad showed up looking for her . He s a total jerk .
Fynn : Come on , I ll get you some coffee , you can tell me about it .
Joey : There s nothing to tell !
Fynn : Damn it , Joey ! You re still facing charges , vandalizing that car and jumping bail . You think you need any more trouble ? Come on .
Brady : Okay , tell me what happened after you left .
Theresa : Um , well , the first thing I did was , I got rid of the pi , cause I wanted to speak to her privately , and , um ... I told her what I told you . That I remembered seeing her , that she had the hat and the sunglasses , and that shirt , and the more I said , the more she freaked out , because she knew that I was right , and she said -- that bitch said that I did nt deserve you and Tate and then she threatened me and so I turned to run away and escape , and I tripped and I hit my head and , I ... I do nt know , that s all I can remember before I came to--
Brady : Listen , listen , you did hit your head , and we need to get you checked out .
Theresa : No , Brady , we have to find summer ! She knows that I know . I mean , look around -- like , she took all of her stuff . She knows where Tate is .
Brady : Salem inn , room 1019 .
Theresa : Okay , john , you need to go track down summer ; and , Brady , we re gon na go to that room .
Deimos : That Parker ... sweet kid .
Nicole : Yes , he is . I see a lot of Daniel in him .
Dario : Yeah .
Nicole : Not just in his eyes and his smile , but in his sweet little heart . You know , there were times when I was with Parker when Daniel had to work late . We would just hang out , the two of us , and you know , sometimes , I feel sad or upset , and of course I try to cover it up , but oh no , he sensed it . He totally could tell . And , you know , he would just say things to me like , Nicole , how can I make you feel better ? I just want to make you feel happy . Really ? He s so sweet , he s so cute .
Deimos : Well , he obviously loves you .
Nicole : Oh , I love that kid like crazy . And I am so glad that he s around Melanie , too . You know , cause it feels like part of Daniel lives on in them , you know ? And it s really comforting .
Dario : I m sure .
Nicole : When I woke up this morning , uh ... I found myself thinking about a year ago today . That was a day when I handled things differently than I would ve in the past . I did something to Daniel that would ve hurt him . But instead of lying and trying to hide it , I actually told the truth . And I thought that I was gon na lose him forever . But it actually brought us closer together . That s when things began for us . He still wanted to marry me . Become a family together . Be together for the rest of our lives .
Dario : I know how much you miss him .
Nicole : Yeah , especially at night , you know , when there s no distractions and I m just lying in bed , and ... and it just feels so wrong that he s not there with me , you know ? I ca nt wrap my arms around him , and ... and sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night and I ve forgotten that he s gone . [ Laughs ] Because I m still , you know , kind of asleep , and so I roll over to his side of the bed , and I try to cuddle with him , and then ... and then I remember what happened , and I -- I m sorry .
Dario : No , do nt be sorry .
Nicole : It s like a shock all over again , every time .
Dario : It must be so hard .
Nicole : Oh . You have no idea . [ Laughs ] You want to know what books I read at night before I go to sleep ?
Dario : [ Chuckles ]
Nicole : Definitely not romance novels anymore . It s more like , um , you know , how to go on living after someone you loved has died , or overcoming grief by living in the now , or something like that , I do nt know .
Dario : Well , these books , are they helping you ?
Nicole : I guess . They give advice . You know , words of encouragement from people who have been through it . But I guess time is the only thing that could help heal the pain .
Dario : Time .
Nicole : Mm - hmm .
Dario : And maybe falling in love again . You know , when you said before ... about being honest with Daniel . Even though you knew it was going to hurt him . That brought you closer together . I was impressed by that .
Nicole : Why do I get the feeling we re not talking about Daniel anymore ?
Deimos : Why ? What changed your mind ?
Victor : Does it matter ?
Deimos : I m just curious . Was it Maggie ?
Victor : Not just Maggie . Everybody thought it was a good idea .
Deimos : Everybody but you .
Victor : I m tired of the fighting , Deimos . I want it over . Behind me . Behind us . I want to enjoy my life again , spend time with my wife , who s not filled with anger and anxiety over you . She deserves better .
Deimos : We agree on that .
Victor : So ... you give me back half my fortune and Titan , and you keep this house and basic black .
Deimos : That was the deal .
Victor : You know , you ve been saying for some time now that you want to make amends . This offer is a good step in putting the past behind us . But if I m to move on with my life , I , uh ... I need to do the same thing . I accept my guilt . I was responsible for the argument that caused Helena to lose her life . I was so hurt and angry by the fact that you stole her from me , that I let you spend 30 years in prison for a crime that you did nt commit . Over the years , I convinced myself that I had done nothing wrong . Now I know that I did . So the question is ... can we truly move on ?
Joey : Dad ! What re you doing ?
Steve : What s it look like ?
Joey : Tending bar is what it looks like .
Steve : Yeah . I m not with black patch anymore .
Kayla : What re you two doing together ?
Fynn : We just ran into each other , offered him coffee .
Kayla : That was nice of you .
Fynn : Excuse me .
Kayla : Joey ... I need you to do something with me tonight .
Joey : Mom , I ca nt , I m sorry . I had a bad day , and I do nt really feel like--
Steve : Joe , hang on a second . Your mom and I need to talk to you about something . We re very concerned about you . There s some things that you need to deal with that you have nt . And I know you went to a therapist after what happened with Ava . But then you let it drop . I know you have nt wanted to talk about it . But we re afraid that the more you avoid talking about what you went through , the deeper the scars can get . So your mom made an appointment for you for tonight with Dr. Evans .
Joey : Mom !
Steve : You have to go . We re insisting on it .
Joey : Guess I do nt have a choice then , right ?
Steve : No .
Joey : Well ... looks like we re gon na have to get coffee another time .
Steve : Hey , Fynn . Hold up a minute .
Brady : This better not be summer playing another game , distracting us while she runs away again .
Theresa : That s why I asked your dad to track her down .
Brady : There s nothing here . There s nothing .
Theresa : Yeah , but Brady , I have this feeling . This--
Brady : What are you talking about ?
Theresa : I do nt know , I just have this very overpowering , overwhelming feeling that Tate was here . I do nt know , call it a -- like , a strong connection , like a mother s intuition . I just think this is where she brought him . That she had to have brought him here when she stole him from us that day .
Brady : Summer has been denying that she took our son . I mean , why would she have us come to this room when she s been trying so hard to convince us that she did nt ?
Summer : I know I m not wanted here by anyone .
Maggie : That s not exactly true .
Summer : No , I m sure I m right . But I want you to know how much it meant for me to have met you and gotten to know you . And for a time , I felt an acceptance and affection from you that I have never experienced before .
Maggie : That was all genuine , summer . That time meant so much for me , too .
Summer : You do nt have to say that .
Maggie : I meant it .
Summer : I do want to say that I am sorry for everything I put you through . I am so sorry for the nightmare that Brady and Theresa are facing . I m sorry for coming between you and your husband and that he hates me so much . But I will never be sorry for having met you .
Maggie : [ Cries ]
Deimos : I am genuinely sorry for the hell I put you and Maggie through . Will you accept my apology ?
Victor : No .
Deimos : No ?
Victor : You heard me .
Deimos : But you just said that you wanted to move on .
Victor : I could do that without accepting your apology . I can and I will discipline myself not to think about you one way or the other .
Deimos : I see . Well , that s disappointing .
Victor : You ll get over it .
Deimos : Victor ... I honestly want to wipe the slate clean . Start fresh . So why do nt we at least do this , all right ? After Maggie s operation , once she can walk again , can we try to finally put all the terrible things between us behind us ?
Victor : I think what we can try is to stay out of each other s way . I do nt need your brotherly devotion , and I m sure you can get along just fine without mine . You ve agreed to move on . Let s just leave it at that .
Kayla : I have talked to Marlena , and I told her what s going on with you , and the charges that you re still facing .
Joey : Did you tell her about jade ? How much you hate her ?
Kayla : Joey , I do not hate her . She s a kid . You know , I actually feel sorry for her . And I really hope that someday she can make something of her life . But I just do nt think that it s helpful for you to be around people who do nt have any direction and they do nt have any goals . I mean , why would any mother want that for her son ?
Joey : Why would any mother want her son to give up the girl he loves ?
Kayla : Joey . This is about you and about your future . And about getting your life back on track , emotionally , with Marlena s help . And you know what ? To answer your question , yes I did tell her about jade , because I wanted to be honest with her , like I want you to be .
Joey : I ca nt take it anymore . I feel like I m gon na explode . It does nt ... nothing makes sense , it s just -- everything s so screwed up . It s so screwed up . My family , jade , her family . Sometimes I wonder if I m going insane .
Kayla : Joey ... joey , listen to me . Joey . You know what we re gon na do ? We re gon na see Marlena , and we re gon na get through this .
Joey : I do nt want to .
Kayla : And we re gon na get you the counseling that you need , baby .
Joey : What about you ? When are you and dad gon na get the counseling you need ?
Fynn : If you re gon na talk to me about Kayla , you might as well just--
Steve : No , no , no , no , no . I ca nt do anything about whatever s going on between you and Kayla . But I draw the line at you trying to use my son .
Fynn : That s not what s going on . I m sorry if you misunderstood .
Steve : Oh , I do nt think I misunderstood anything . My boy is going through a rough time right now . And the last thing he needs is to be more confused by some guy sucking up to him because he s trying to seduce his mother .
Dario : Who do you think I m talking about ? Deimos ?
Nicole : Who else ?
Dario : Well , his name is bound to come up every once in a while , given how you seem to feel about him .
Nicole : Dario . I just got finished telling you how much I miss Daniel , and I ca nt seem to wrap my head around the fact that he s not coming back . I mean , even talking about some guy , I feel like I m betraying him somehow .
Dario : You think you can betray someone who s not alive anymore ?
Nicole : Actually , I ve been asking myself that question lately .
Dario : Maybe I can help you ? The answer s no . You ca nt . The only way you can betray someone who s dead and that loved you is by shutting down . And giving up on your own life . And Daniel would want you to find love again . Do nt you think ?
Nicole : I console myself by believing that . You know , but sometimes I feel like ... it s irrational , I know , but wherever he is , he would be terribly hurt and disappointed if I fell in love with someone else . And sometimes I feel like he wants me to wait for him .
Dario : You would be waiting your whole life , Nicole . Wasting your life .
Nicole : I know . When I snap out of it , I know .
Dario : [ Sighs ] I m really glad that you feel like you can open up to me the way you do . And be so honest about what you re thinking . And feeling . I want to be honest with you , too . About my thoughts and feelings .
Nicole : [ Chuckles ] Okay . So be honest .
Dario : [ Sighs ] Well , right now , I m thinking and feeling that I want to kiss you .
Nicole : Dario , you are so sweet and understanding and attractive , but we re just friends , that s all . And I do nt want you ... I just do nt want to encourage you to think that there could be anything more .
Dario : You want to pick it up , do nt you ? [ Cell phone ringing ] Go on right ahead .
Nicole : Hello ?
Deimos : My life has taken a turn for the better since we last spoke . I want to tell you about it .
Nicole : This is nt a good time to talk .
Deimos : I need to see you in person . I think you ll be very pleased .
Nicole : We ll see .
Steve : Let me be crystal clear -- I have no intention of giving up on Kayla .
Joey : You guys are just as messed up as I am , you just wo nt admit it . It s the truth .
Kayla : Come on , Joey .
Joey : Dad s trying to be something he s not and you re trying to pretend like you do nt even love him anymore , and you turn to Fynn instead .
Kayla : I am not trying to pretend anything .
Joey : Sure you are , it s pretty obvious .
Kayla : I m just trying to not invite misery into my life . I mean , enough misery comes to you uninvited , as you know better than anybody . I m just trying to accept the fact that maybe your dad and I are just not compatible on a basic level . And although we still love each other , it s just inevitable that eventually we will make each other very unhappy .
Joey : That sounds like a bunch of bull . We re not compatible on a basic level . Inevitable that we ll make each other unhappy . You get that from a self - help book ?
Kayla : It s not fair that you mock me , Joey .
Joey : You know , it s not fair to you or me or dad to pretend like I m the only one who has problems . This entire family s screwed up and miserable . And they all need help .
Brady : Summer promised . She promised to do everything she could to help us find our son . I mean ... is she bringing us here to help us find the real kidnapper ? What is she doing ?
Theresa : No ! I mean , maybe that s what she wants us to think , but , Brady , she threatened me because she knew that I was onto her , despite all of her efforts to throw us off . Come on ...
Brady : Hey , come here . I m sorry . You were right about summer , and I m sorry , I should have listened to you , all right ? I m sorry . Theresa . Oh , God , Theresa , look at it . That s his , is nt it ? That s his .
Theresa : I knew it . God , I knew Tate was here the whole time ! I mean , this means I was right . I was right , summer brought him here , and she--
Brady : But obviously , she has nt been with him all the time , so she must ve delivered him to someone here . Whoever was in this room on that day has our boy .

<s>### Instruction:
You are a helpful, respectful and honest assistant. Your task is to summarize the following dialogue. Your answer should be based on the provided dialogue only.
### Dialogue:
Jennifer : You are unbelievable . I tell you not to threaten me and you respond by threatening me .
Craig : No , I m just stating the possibility . You can either wake up , stop trying to cut me off at the knees , accept the fact that we are a good team with a make - a - million - dollar deal in the works , or you can kiss life at that cozy cottage good - bye .
Jennifer : So you do nt care who gets caught in this . Mike has done nothing to you . And you wo nt think twice about making him suffer just so you can get back at me .
Craig : I m not the one hurting him . It s your choice . But you do nt have to hurt him . You do nt have to leave him . You can have it all , Jennifer . All you need to do is embrace the status quo at Street Jeans .
Jennifer : This is blackmail .
Craig : This is business .
Jennifer : You really are a monster .
Craig : No . I am a business man . But you are self - destructing . And maybe that s what this is all about . It s not really you cheated on your boyfriend . Maybe it s just you realized you re more like your mother than you want to admit .
Jack : And your response to finding her there on the floor was to wipe the place clean of prints ?
Carly : We panicked . I know how stupid it was .
Jack : It was criminal , Carly , for anyone to do . But you -- you re the wife of a police detective !
Lily : It s not her fault . I m the one who wiped the place clean . Carly just kept my secret .
Carly : Jack ! Jack !
Holden : Tom , Luke is just a kid . He s not even old enough to get a driver s license . And you want to try him as an adult ? What are you trying to prove ?
Tom : Given the severity of the crime and the fact that Luke is showing no remorse .
Holden : Why do nt you consider the fact that you ve known him practically all his life ? I mean , he s never committed a crime .
Tom : This is not personal , Holden . The state attorney general is putting the screws to my office on this one . And I m sorry it s turned out this way .
Holden : Tom , come on . He ca nt go to prison . I mean , you know better than anyone what happens to kids in prison . Is this what you really want for him ? Do you really think that he deserves that ?
Tom : I wish I could tell you what you want to hear . But all I can do is give you the facts .
Luke : How many times do I have to say it before somebody believes me ?
Jessica : Luke , it is my job to give you the best defense possible . And the way to do that is to show reasonable doubt .
Luke : But I made a confession . I mean , nobody s -- nobody s going to have any doubt after that .
Jessica : There still can be mitigating circumstances .
Luke : But they have my fingerprint , right ? I mean , they know I had a motive .
Jessica : So did some other people .
Luke : But I did it alone . Nobody else had anything to do with it besides me .
Holden : Especially not your mother . Right ?
Jessica : Holden , I m doing everything I can .
Holden : I know . I know . The rest is up to me .
Keith : Your son murders my sister , and you ask me for help ? What kind of help ? What -- why would I do anything for you ?
Lily : Cause Luke is not responsible . I am .
Keith : Yeah . You are . You re responsible for a lot of things . You left my sister unconscious , left her there to die , but then your son came along and finished the job . He confessed .
Lily : He s protecting me .
Keith : Protecting you , huh ? He s willing to go to jail . He s 15 years old , do nt you think that s a little extreme ?
Lily : No . Not for Luke . He s been covering my tracks ever since this happened . Burning a pair of gloves that I left behind at Julia s apartment , hanging around the crime scene to see if there s any more evidence that would incriminate me .
Keith : Well , maybe he was hanging around to see if there was anything that was going to incriminate him .
Lily : You suspected me from the beginning , and you were right . I killed Julia .
Keith : So all that talk was all just garbage ? You know , how it was an accident , you did nt mean to hurt her -- it was just a lie ?
Lily : Yes .
Keith : Why are you -- why do nt you go to the police with this then ?
Lily : Because the police wo nt listen to me . They think they have their man , but they re wrong . I am the woman that you want , and you are the only one that can make me pay .
Lily : I can not let my son go to jail for a crime he did not commit .
Keith : Well , you had no problems sitting back , letting me take the rap .
Lily : I know . And I m sorry . I was a coward . I saw a way out , and -- but please , I m trying to make things right , now .
Keith : I do nt know whether you killed Julia or not . Frankly , I do nt care . But the fact that you re going to watch your son go to jail for something that you may or may not have done -- that s what you deserve . That s two for the money , and I can live with that .
Lily : No , no , you ca nt . Please . You can not leave until you hear everything that I have to say . I know how much you hate me --
Keith : You have nt even scratched the surface .
Lily : Please , do nt take your hatred of me out on an innocent child . I was willing to let you go to prison because I thought I could get away with it . I thought I could start my life over again , get my husband back , my family back together again .
Keith : Yeah , you were going to go on your merry way , while I took the rap .
Lily : I told myself I could nt care about you because you were Julia s brother .
Keith : Oh .
Lily : You practically condoned your sister destroying my marriage .
Keith : See , now , there you go , trying to pin it on my sister again , even though you know that she had full cooperation from your husband -- you know that .
Lily : Do you want to hear my story ?
Keith : No , I do nt want to hear anymore stories . Why is yours any different ?
Lily : Because this one -- leaves absolutely nothing out , I promise you . When I found out that Julia had stolen drugs and she was a fugitive , I thought that I had a way to force her out of Oakdale . And when I told her what I had learned , and what I wanted -- she laughed at me . She said she was here to stay . She and Holden were in love , and I would have to live with that . And that s when I wrote her this .
Carly : Jack !
Jack : What ? Hey , buddy . Looks like somebody s been busy on the computer . What s going on ?
J.J. : I did nt want you to forget .
Jack : Forget what ?
J.J. : Me . My mom . What it was like when we were a family . She hated my mom , but you did nt . You said you d always care about us .
Jack : And I meant it . Hey , come on over here for a second . Sit down . The time that I spent with you and your mom was a very special time in my life . I loved your mother very much . And when you love somebody , they re always a part of your life , J.J. does nt matter where you go , or how much time passes .
J.J. : Promise ?
Jack : I cross my heart . Hey , look , I could nt forget your mother any more than I could forget you . You changed my life , buddy , in ways that I just ca nt explain . That s what happens when you love somebody . They change your life . You re a part of me . And I m a part of you . Whether you like it or not . Hey , why do nt you -- why do nt you go see if you ve left anything out back , so you can pack it up for your Uncle Keith , okay ?
J.J. : Okay .
Mike : Hey ! Come on in .
Lucinda : Hey , darling . I had a message that you wanted to see me urgently .
Mike : Well , I did nt mean you had to drag yourself all the way up here . I planned on stopping by the big house .
Lucinda : Well , no time like the present . Oh , my heavens . [ Lucinda laughs ] [ Mike chuckles ] Well , now that I have a bona fide celebrity living on my property , I have to make sure that the body behind Street Jeans has everything he needs .
Mike : The only celebrity in this house is the designer .
Lucinda : Yeah , she s -- she s a find . She s a find . She s very talented . The company s taken off . Worldwide is lucky to have her .
Mike : Yeah . So am I. And I m glad we agree on that , because I think I have an idea that s gon na make all three of us a lot happier .
Lucinda : I m listening .
Mike : Okay . What I m suggesting is we ll send Jennifer s productivity through the roof , with like a zero chance of burnout .
Lucinda : And how much is this going to set me back ?
Mike : Not a cent .
Lucinda : Well , I like it already . But since Craig is Jennifer s liaison at the company , I think , perhaps , you should be speaking to him and not me about any plans you have .
Mike : I ll tell you right now , he s gon na hate this idea . Because if you approve of what I m thinking of , he s going to be seeing a lot less of Jennifer than he was before .
Lucinda : Oh .
Craig : You want to do big business , you re stuck with me . Unless you want Mike to know all about our big night .
Jennifer : I was half drunk --
Craig : And having a meltdown about your mother , and about Mike , and you just have no idea how you ended up begging to get in my bed --
Jennifer : I never begged you for anything .
Craig : Grow up . Stop playing the victim , you re not . You re not a child , you knew exactly what you were getting into .
Jennifer : Maybe you re right . You did nt force me to do anything I did nt want to do . But I ll be damned if I let you hold it over my head so that you can keep me in line . Street Jeans is my company . Those are my designs .
Craig : What does that mean ?
Jennifer : That means that I can shut it down and set up shop elsewhere if I m forced to .
Craig : Whatever . But if you cut me out , you ll lose Mike . Well , then again , maybe you re not losing that much . Otherwise , you would nt have come looking for me .
Craig : Now , I suggest you try to control your emotions . At least in public . And you think long and hard about the magnitude of this deal . I need to fill a progress report with Sierra and Tony Kwan . And I m going to tell them that everything is hunky - dory . And then you and I are going to Singapore .
Jennifer : I -- I told you I m not going anywhere with you , Craig .
Craig : We ll see .
Jennifer : Oh . Perfect .
Dusty : Do nt let him get to you .
Jennifer : I do nt know what you re talking about .
Dusty : I saw Craig smiling on his way out . I figured somebody paid a high price for that . [ Jennifer sighs ] What d he do this time ?
Jennifer : Nothing . I did it . I did it all to myself .
Carly : Are you ever going to speak to me again ?
Jack : I have nt decided .
Carly : At least , maybe you could try --
Jack : What , try and see it from your point of view , Carly ? No , I ca nt . I guess it s the cop in me .
Carly : Well , maybe you could try to stop being a cop for a minute and be my husband ?
Jack : A woman is dead . She was hurt . She was left to die alone . Alone , Carly . This is the same woman that nursed me back to health and took care of me . What d you expect to happen here ? We d just forget the whole thing , sweep it under the rug , and get on with our lives as usual ?
Carly : I know what lily and I did was wrong , Jack --
Jack : It was criminal . Heartless . And I know you do nt see it that way . I know you do nt . To you , you were being loyal to a friend . You get tunnel vision sometimes . I understand that , I get that . You ve always been that way since the day we met . I never imagined you d do this . I always thought that getting married and having sage and building a life together would change you in some way . I do nt know . I guess it has , actually . Only I do nt know what it s changed you into .
Carly : I wanted to tell you the truth --
Jack : You should ve told me the truth ! But instead , you covered up a murder ! You made a fool out of me . You compromised my job , my career , you compromised the case , and God help you , Carly , -- God help you , cause you stood silently by while an innocent man was accused of murdering his own sister .
Carly : When Lily came to me , she said that Julia was alive . We went back to Julia s , and Julia was dead . So we thought there might be a chance that Keith was the guilty .
Jack : Yes , but you knew that there was a better chance that he was nt . But you were too busy covering Lily s butt and your own . I mean , did it ever occur to you once to protect your husband ? ! We re supposed to be partners here ! We re supposed to work as team ! How am I ever supposed to trust you again ?
Carly : No , please , do nt say that .
Jack : Tell me something . Tell me something . When you thought I was gone forever after my car went off that bridge , did you bargain with God ?
Carly : 100 times a day .
Jack : What d you promise him ? That if he just brought me back to you , that you d never do anything to risk losing me again ?
Carly : Something like that .
Jack : Yeah . How many times since then have you lied to him ?
Carly : Jack --
Jack : How many times , Carly ?
Carly : Jack --
Jack : How many times ?
Carly : Tell me -- tell me you re not thinking about leaving me over this ?
Holden : No , Jess . No . I know my son . He did not do this .
Jessica : So you re still sure he s protecting Lily .
Holden : I think he s convinced himself that he s the only one who can . I need to talk to him .
Jessica : No , I do nt think that s a good idea . Every time he talks to you , every time he sees you , it seems to just strengthen his resolve to plead guilty .
Holden : Just give me one more chance . I think I know how to get through to him .
Keith : If Julia did nt leave town , you were gon na kill her . That s what you want me to believe ?
Lily : It s the truth .
Keith : Not according to Carly .
Lily : Carly only knows what I ve told her . And I needed her help to hide the evidence and to clean up the fingerprints . I -- I only told Carly what I knew she would believe .
Keith : And the police did nt find this letter because ?
Lily : Because I found it in her purse when Carly and I went back to clean up the apartment . And I took it . But you could put it back . You could just tell them that you found it when you were packing up her things . The police will not listen to me anymore , but they will listen to you . No one hated your sister more than I did . And when I found out that she was going after my husband , I wanted her to die , and I told her that that night .
Keith : Look , I do nt want to hear this .
Lily : I told her that she was a woman with no morals , no heart , no soul . And that Jack and Holden and the rest of the world would be a much better place if she was dead , and I wanted her to die , so I pushed her . And she hit her head , and she fell to the ground , and I watched her suffer . I watched her beg for her life . I could have helped her , but I did nt . I could have called 911 , but I did nt . I could have opened the door . You were right there , knocking on the door ! I could have opened it and let you come in and help , but I needed her to die , because if she was dead , then I could get my life back .
Keith : You watched my sister die ?
Lily : Yes . And when she finally died , finally died , I felt like I could breathe again .
Keith : What about J.J. ? ! What about him ? ! Did nt you even care ? !
Lily : What , did she care ? ! About my children , about my family ? ! Why should I shed a tear for that woman and her child ? !
Keith : You know , you re sick . You re really sick .
Lily : Oh , she was sick . And there s another special name for a woman like that . But I m not gon na say it . But someday -- someday we ll fill her son in on exactly what that is .
Keith : You do nt know anything about Julia . She was nt trash . She was my sister . And I loved her . And so did your husband , okay ? Yeah , you keep trying to blame her . But he saw the million great things about my sister . That s why he was in love with her , and that s why he s never , ever gon na be in love with you again .
Lily : Your sister turned me into the kind of person that my husband ca nt love anymore . And whatever you think of me , I m not the kind of person to sacrifice my own son . So please -- please give the police this letter , please .
Keith : Why should I ?
Lily : Because very soon , the police will realize they have no case against Luke , and he ll be set free . He ll come home , and I will take this letter , and I will burn it . And this conversation between the two of us never happened . It s really up to you , Keith . If you want justice for Julia , it s in your hands what happens next .
Carly : Jack ? Are you planning on leaving me ?
Jack : Walking out that door and never looking back seems like a pretty good solution right now . But after the year that Sage and Parker have had , I do nt think I could do that to them .
Carly : So your generosity is for the sake of the children . Forgive me if I do nt thank you for that .
Jack : Do what you re gon na do , Carly . You re gon na anyway . I tell you what I m gon na do . I m gon na stop pretending that there s a partnership here , that we re in this together . And I know you re not perfect , neither am I , but I thought at least some things were sacred .
Carly : I know what I did was wrong , Jack . But would you have believed us if Lily and I went to you and told you the truth about what happened that night ? That things got out of hand , that Julia pushed Lily , that Lily pushed her back , that Julia accidentally fell and hit her head on a table ? !
Jack : Yes ! Yes , I would have . But you did nt play it that way , Carly . You played it your own way . And now a woman s dead .
Carly : And I am sorry about that . I will always be sorry about that .
Jack : Yeah . Well , that makes two of us .
Carly : Please try to understand .
Jack : Do nt try to justify what happened , Carly . And stop blaming Julia for her own death ! She did nt deserve this , and neither did J.J. ! And no amount of excuses is gon na change the fact that there s a little boy that s gon na grow up without his mother .
Carly : I know that you re angry , Jack . But just keep in mind that I am not the person who hurt Julia that night .
Jack : No . No , I know you did nt hurt her . You did nt exactly help her either . You could have helped Julia . You could have helped me .
Carly : I m sorry if I compromised your job , Jack . But I am not sorry that I stood by Lily . If it was Holden who needed your help , you would have done the same thing .
Jack : If that s what you think , you do nt know the first thing about me . There are some things , Carly , you just do nt do . Even for people you love .
Carly : Well , I guess that s the difference between us .
Mike : So what do you think ? Do you approve ?
Lucinda : Approval granted . I like -- I think it s just -- it s tremendous . What does Jennifer think ?
Mike : I have nt told her yet . It s a surprise .
Lucinda : Oh , she s just so lucky , having a guy like you in her corner .
Mike : Well , I m not gon na win boyfriend of the year award anytime soon . I missed her big night at Metro , and I m trying to make it up to her .
Lucinda : An artist s studio right here in my cottage . Tremendous .
Mike : Yeah , I mean , you know , that way , whenever she has to burn the midnight oil , she wo nt have to sleep on that sofa in her office .
Lucinda : Yeah . Got it . And you re right . Craig is not gon na like this , not at all . He does so enjoy monopolizing the talent s time .
Mike : Now , those days are over . Too much exposure to Craig is nt good for anybody .
Lucinda : Amen .
Jennifer : I told myself that I could have it all . I could have a fabulous career , a man who loves me , a happy life .
Dusty : Who says you ca nt ? Craig ? What s he doing , trying to make you feel like you and your company are nothing without him , that somehow he made you ?
Jennifer : That s not quite it .
Dusty : Well , whatever it is , everyone knows he d be nothing without Street Jeans -- or you . So do nt let him get under your skin .
Jennifer : I know . I know . I guess the stress is just getting to me . But I m fine . I m fine . I can handle Craig .
Dusty : Until you find yourself in the middle of thin ice .
Jennifer : Well , I do nt think I m in any imminent danger . So thanks for the chat , but really , I m fine .
Dusty : I ve seen you fine , and this ai nt it .
Craig : Miss Jennifer needs a little more time before we can -- go to Singapore , but I managed to convince Tony Kwan s people that postponing the meeting was advantageous for them .
Sierra : Well , that s good news .
Craig : It certainly is . Why ? What s wrong ? This is a huge deal . I thought you were on board with this Asian expansion .
Sierra : Well , that s before I began to have certain concerns .
Craig : About what ?
Sierra : You and Jennifer . You know , that whole episode at the Lakeview really left me with the impression that there were some things that were nt said .
Craig : I ca nt imagine .
Sierra : Sure you can . So maybe you want to tell me something honest about why Jennifer is having such a difficult time working with you .
Craig : Jennifer -- has a creative temperament . But we re working through that . As soon as we get back from Singapore --
Sierra : Actually , I was thinking that maybe you should take a break from Street Jeans . There are countless other projects at Worldwide that could use your expertise .
Craig : I have a huge deal in the works here . I ca nt walk away now .
Sierra : Well , I really hope that you reconsider .
Craig : Why ?
Sierra : Because somebody needs to look out for the best interests of this company .
Craig : I am !
Sierra : You know , actually , I think that you are too personally attached to this project , and you are losing perspective , and you are unwilling or unable to do what is necessary for the good of this company . So I have to make the hard decisions .
Craig : Give me a break .
Sierra : I beg your pardon ?
Craig : This has nothing to do with Street Jeans or Worldwide . This is about you .
Sierra : What about me ?
Craig : You re jealous .
Sierra : Jealous ?
Craig : Mm - hmm .
Sierra : Of what ? You and Jennifer ? Give me a break .
Craig : You re jealous of our success -- of my success , more to the point .
Sierra : You know , the world does nt solely revolve around you .
Craig : Oh , no , I know . I know . No , I believe the world turns for all of us . You were very content when you had me friar tucked away in that monastery , but now that I m taking the world by storm in the job you begged me to take , you re suddenly threatened , and that s why you called me he -- not to commend me , but to shoot me down .
Sierra : You know , I am only trying to get to the bottom of this for the good of the company . And instead of you talking to me rationally , like an adult , you do all this mud - slinging . You know , it s really kind of insulting .
Craig : I know . I am insulted .
Sierra : Well , if that s the way you feel , maybe you should just forget about taking on another project . And if you find it so unbearable to abide by my decisions and treat me in a respectful manner , then you know what ? I welcome you -- no , no , no , I urge you -- to leave worldwide immediately .
Dusty : I do nt want to see you get hurt .
Jennifer : Well , I m fine . And I appreciate it , but I really have to get going .
Dusty : Back to the grind , huh ?
Jennifer : Home to see Mike .
Dusty : He s a good guy if he makes you happy .
Jennifer : Deliriously .
Dusty : Excellent . What ll you tell him about Craig ?
Jennifer : There s nothing to know .
Dusty : The wonderful thing about a relationship is you can make your partner believe just about anything , but you ca nt lie to yourself .
Holden : Do you think that all you have to do is just refuse to talk to me , refuse to look at me ? That I m gon na give up ? I m not gon na give up . No matter how angry you get , no matter how many times you tell me to go away , I m not gon na do it . Because when I look at you , I see a lot more than this one horrible moment . I see all those years together , when you made me so proud . And it s not just you riding better than kids twice your age or when you were voted captain of the hockey team . I think of the quieter times . I remember a time when I saw you out pushing your sister on a swing . You did nt want to do it . You wanted to go . You wanted to do your own thing . But you stayed there and you pushed her because she was having so much fun , and you knew it . That s why you did nt stop .
Luke : This is stupid . You re wasting your time .
Holden : This is a serious crime -- so serious that you will go to prison . If they find you guilty --
Luke : I am guilty .
Holden : Then you will go to prison -- not juvenile hall -- and you will stay there for a very long time . Now look , if you did this , and you re confessing because you want to make things right , then I will help you . I will do anything I can to help you . But if you re confessing because you re afraid that your mom is guilty and you re afraid of what might happen to her , you have got to stop this . You are not helping anyone . I do nt want you here . Your mother does nt want you here . It s killing her that you even have to spend one night here .
Luke : What do you care about how my mom feels ?
Holden : I care about your mother . And if she s found guilty , then I will everything I can to help her and protect her . But you ve got to tell me the truth . I need to know . I swear to you , I will do everything that I can to make things right .
Jack : I m going to tell you something , and I do nt want you to ever forget it . Your mother loved you more than anything in this world . And all she wanted was for you to be happy . She still does , and so do I. So I want you to make me a promise .
J.J. : Anything .
Jack : If you re not happy living with your Uncle Keith , you call me , day or night , and you let me know , and I ll take care of everything , okay ?
J.J. : Like before ?
Jack : Like always . Cause if you re not happy , I m not happy . And you know why ? Cause you re my son . That ll never change . Come here . [ Knock on door ] Hey . Come on in . We were just getting J.J. Ready to go .
Keith : Hi , J.J. You ready to hit the highway ?
Jack : You said you were nt gon na go to Chicago for some time , so where are you gon na be staying ?
Keith : We ll be over at the Lakeview for a little while . Clear up some of the legal stuff .
Jack : Well , I m glad you re gon na be close by . Hey , listen , remember what I said . If you need anything , you call me , okay ? Bye , buddy .
Carly : Wait , wait . There s something that I would like to say .
Sierra : My only concern is the good for this company . So why do nt you deal with your ego in your personal time .
Craig : All right , all right . Maybe I am taking things a little personally , but this company is going gangbusters , and I do nt know how else to assure you there is nothing to worry about . I have given the little princess everything she needs , everything she has asked for , and sure , there are kinks , but Jennifer and I are a successful team . And if you do nt believe me , ask her .
Sierra : You know , I might just do that .
Craig : All right , and she will back me up . Because you know why ? Because we both want the same thing , and that is success for Street Jeans and Worldwide , and nothing is going to change that .
Mike : I thought I heard your car pull up . Welcome home . I got something for you . I was gon na wait and show it to you in 3d when it was all finished and everything and you got back from Singapore , but I just ca nt wait to see the look on your face . Take it . It s for you .
Jennifer : Mike , I have something I have to tell you .
Luke : So you re saying if I tell the truth , you ll make everything right .
Holden : I ll do my best .
Luke : Your best . Then here s the truth . Once and for all . I killed Julia . And if you d have given a damn about Mom , neither one of us would ve been here right now . That s the truth .
Lily : Oh , this has to work . For Luke s sake .
Faith : Mommy ? Does nt Luke love us anymore ?
Lily : Oh , come here . Of course he does . Yes .
Faith : Then why d he go away ?
Lily : It s complicated . You miss him ? I know . I miss him , too . But I m doing everything I can to bring him home . Okay ?
Faith : I do nt like when people go away .
Lily : Me either . I know .
Faith : You wo nt go away , too , will you , Mommy ?
Lily : You know , sometimes -- sometimes people have to go away to make things better . It does nt mean they do nt love us anymore . And when there s love , that s all that matters . And you know that no matter where Mommy goes , that I love you . Do nt you ? Okay . Good . Never forget that , okay ? No matter what .
Keith : Hey , J.J. , why do nt you run out to the car ? I ll be right there , okay ? I ll get the bags and everything . All right . What is it ?
Jack : Carly .
Carly : Jack , its okay . I wanted to tell you that I m sorry .
Keith : Sorry ? What exactly are you sorry for ?
Carly : For not coming forward with the truth when you were being held as a suspect .
Keith : And why did you do that ?
Carly : Lily and I were afraid that no one would believe the truth . And I know that it s no excuse , but when Lily told me that Julia was alive when she left her apartment , and that you were there , banging on the door , well , I could nt be sure that it was nt you . And I know that an apology is nt gon na change anything . It s not gon na change the past or the damage done . But maybe --
Jack : Maybe once you get settled in Chicago , you could drop us a line from time to time , let us know how J.J. s doing .
Keith : I thought I made it clear to you that I was nt going anywhere until justice was served for my sister .
Jack : Was there anything else ?
Keith : Yeah , there is .
Announcer : On the next As the World Turns --
Jennifer : The reason that I did nt come back here --
Mike : You took a night for yourself .
Jennifer : I was nt by myself , Mike .
Holden : If he s lying about killing Julia , then we need to know . Maybe you can go in there and try and get him to tell the truth .
Jack : Where d you get this , Keith ?
Carly : Let me see it .
Jack : Answer my question !
Carly : Why are you getting so upset ?
Keith : Cause it s a one - way ticket for you up the river . Premeditated murder of my sister .

### Dialogue:
Brooke : Stephanie , you do nt know how long I ve waited to hear you say those words .
Stephanie : Too long .
Brooke : I never thought you d accept me into the family .
Nick : Ridge has never been on his deathbed before .
Brooke : Nick --
Nick : It s true . That s why she s here . It s not about you , it s about him .
Stephanie : I acknowledge that .
Nick : You re scared , are nt you , Stephanie ? Your golden boy collapsed because you chased her away .
Stephanie : He s asking for you . Please , please come back with me to Los Angeles . I do nt know how long he can hold on . We could be there in a couple of hours .
Brooke : I m sorry , Nick . I have to go .
Stephanie : The plane s waiting . Nick can bring your things later .
Nick : No . I go where she goes . There s no way I d leave her alone with you .
Dante : What are we doing , Felicia ?
Felicia : Well , if you have to ask , we must be doing it wrong .
Dante : What is going on ?
Felicia : My brother is sick . He might be dying . Did you ever feel like you just have to change the channel ? Things are getting too heavy and intense , and if you do nt feel something else , you re just going to go crazy ? Bridget .
Bridget : What happened ?
Dante : What do you mean ?
Bridget : Where s Ridge ?
Felicia : Oh , Ridge is fine . No , I mean , he s not -- he s not fine . He s the same --
Dante : He s -- he s having all kinds of tests .
Bridget : More tests ? Have they not figured out why he s not responding ?
Felicia : Not yet .
Bridget : Well , why did you guys look like something -- was wrong when I walked in ?
Felicia : I -- we were having a moment . Well , I was anyway , and Dante was comforting me .
Bridget : You re so good at that . You re always comforting me .
Eric : Christian ? How s my son ?
Christian : The MRI was inconclusive .
Eric : So no news is good news ? Is that what you re saying ?
Christian : Mr. Forrester , Ridge should be fully awake by now . I d like to take him for one more test before he goes back to his room .
Eric : Yeah .
Christian : Come on , guys , let s go .
Jackie : Eric ?
Eric : I ll be right there . Jackie --
Jackie : Oh , Eric .
Eric : Stephen . Hello .
Jackie : Eric , I m so sorry about Ridge . Has there been any change ?
Eric : No .
Jackie : The doctors do nt have any idea what s going on ?
Eric : They re actually running out of tests to perform .
Jackie : And yet Stephanie thinks that by dragging Brooke back to L.A. , She s somehow going to cure him ? It is so ridiculous .
Eric : Jackie , our son is ill . If Stephanie thinks that Ridge needs Brooke , she s going to bring her here .
Jackie : Eric , Stephanie is up to something . It s just , I ca nt think for the life of me what .
Stephanie : How soon can we take off ?
Pilot : We re third in line , maam . It will only be a few minutes .
Stephanie : Good . Get us there and get us there safely , Alan .
Pilot : Absolutely .
Stephanie : My son is waiting for Brooke .
Bridget : Are you sure there s nothing wrong ? You guys were nt arguing about Dino ?
Felicia : No .
Dante : Felicia s going to talk to Stephanie for us , stop her from threatening me .
Felicia : Yeah , I m sorry about that .
Bridget : Well , obviously , it s not your fault .
Felicia : You know my mom . Nothing she wo nt do for her children .
Bridget : I wish she could do something for Ridge .
Dante : Look , maybe all these tests will tell the doctors something new .
Bridget : You know , it just does nt make sense . The surgery was successful . There were no signs of infection or bleeding . He should be improving .
Dante : Come here . Look , I was going to spend the day with Dino , but if you need me here , I ll stay . Okay ?
Bridget : It s okay . You can go . Both of you , you ve been here all afternoon . I ll stay . Okay ? I know how much you hate hospitals , so I want you to go be with your son . Both of you . I ll make sure I call you if there s any kind of change .
Felicia : Thanks .
Dante : I ll see you later .
Eric : Jackie , you have every reason to be suspicious of Stephanie . I understand that . But I believe that she s sincere .
Jackie : All of a sudden she s ready to usher Brooke back into the family ? One day -- one day after finally getting rid of her ?
Eric : Jackie , what are you doing ? You re sitting around conjuring up conspiracy theories with Brooke s father ?
Jackie : No , no , no . You do nt think that it s just a little strange , this sudden turn - around that Stephanie s had ? Oh my , you believe her .
Eric : I have always hoped that something would happen to show Stephanie that this vendetta she has against Brooke is bad for this family .
Jackie : You ca nt help looking for the best in her , can you ? Well , I hope , for your sake , one day you find it .
Eric : Your engagement ring ?
Jackie : I hope , Eric , that you do nt think it s too unfeeling of me , ending our engagement when Ridge is so ill . But the truth is , we ve both known for a long , long time now that it s been over . Your place is with your family .
Eric : I hope you realize that I do not regret one moment that I ve spent with you .
Jackie : Nor I with you .
Eric : Look , I have to take this . I m sorry . Stephanie ?
Stephanie : How is he ?
Eric : The same .
Stephanie : Any improvement ?
Eric : No .
Stephanie : Brooke s with me and we re just about to land in L.A. , So we should be at the hospital , I would think , in about an hour .
Eric : Well , get here . Get here as fast as you can .
Stephanie : We will . No improvement .
Brooke : But he s hanging in there ?
Stephanie : Oh , yes . And as soon as he hears your voice , he ll respond to you . He always has , Brooke . I try to do whatever I can .
Dante : I told you I was good .
Felicia : He s out ?
Dante : Cold .
Felicia : So you have a talent for putting people to sleep . Hmm , maybe that s why I forgot about the night he was conceived .
Dante : That , or maybe it was all that champagne you were drinking .
Felicia : Okay , yeah . It s all coming back to me .
Dante : I wonder what jogged your memory .
Felicia : My memory -- not so good , I guess . Because I thought that Bridget turned down your proposal .
Dante : She did .
Felicia : But you still live together ?
Dante : Look , maybe I jumped the gun too soon with the ring . I mean , she s not even divorced from Nick yet . I ll just have to give her more time , that s all .
Felicia : More time ? Dante , while you ve been waiting to have a life with Bridget , I have had a baby , and chemo , and a liver transplant , and fought my way back from death . Did it ever occur to you that maybe Bridget will never be ready for a life with you ?
Dante : That s not possible .
Felicia : Really ?
Dante : Yeah .
Felicia : Then why d you kiss me ?
Dante : I kissed you ?
Felicia : Looks like I m not the only one with memory problems . [ Dominick fussing ] Go . Go work your magic , papa .
Eric : No , no , Christian . I do nt have anything else to tell Stephanie . I do nt have anything else to tell her .
Jackie : Oh , poor Eric . The man is obviously senseless with worry .
Stephen : Senseless ?
Jackie : Well , yes , he truly believes that Stephanie has had some kind of epiphany about Brooke .
Stephen : She seemed sincere , Jackie . But the more I think about it , the more I have to wonder .
Jackie : As well you should . She s been horrible to you in the past , and to Eric , too . But no matter what , he just ca nt help defending her .
Stephen : Is that why you gave him back his ring ?
Jackie : No , that was just a formality . Our relationship was over ages ago . It s just that when I saw how quickly he leapt to Stephanie s defense --
Stephen : Hey , you did the right thing .
Stephanie : Eric --
Eric : Hi .
Brooke : Hi .
Eric : Thanks for coming .
Brooke : Has there been any improvement ?
Eric : No , I do nt think so . Bridget and Christian are in with him right now .
Stephen : Brooke , I know you asked me not to tell Stephanie where you were , but when I found out it was Ridge --
Brooke : No , Dad -- Dad , it s okay , you did the right thing .
Jackie : Well , I do nt think any of this is right . Brooke , it is not your responsibility to take care of Ridge .
Bridget : Mom ?
Brooke : Oh , sweetheart , how is he ?
Bridget : What are you doing here ? I thought you were in Mexico .
Stephanie : I was , but is he still asking for me ?
Bridget : Yes , Mom .
Brooke : Nothing else ?
Christian : I m afraid not .
Brooke : Can I see him ?
Stephanie : Of course you can . That s why you re here . Come on .
Jackie : Okay . You have got to stop her , Nicky . I mean , have you heard what she s saying ? She s talking about reconciling with Brooke . She wants her back in the family .
Nick : Mother -- I will never let that happen .
Stephanie : Hi , honey , it s me . I ve brought someone to see you . Honey , it s Brooke . She s come home to be with you , and she does nt want to be anywhere else .
Felicia : Hi , my sweetie . Hi , my little baby . Okay , yeah , maybe I did kiss you .
Dante : Because you were scared for Ridge ?
Felicia : What can I say ? Hospitals make me crazy .
Dante : So it was the hospital ?

I know you begged me to take her into the family and I just -- I could nt bring myself to listen to you . [ Stephanie sighs ] Maybe if I had , this would nt have happened . Look , it s not too late .
Brooke : Ridge -- your mother s right . It s not too late . Things do nt have to end the way we left them . That day I walked out on Forrester -- that was the hardest thing I ve ever had to do .

Marlena : Hi .
Brady : Thank you for dropping everything to see me .
Marlena : It sounded fairly urgent .
Brady : Yeah , it is . I have to talk to you .
Marlena : Okay , anytime . You know that .
Brady : But not as a stepson , as a patient .
Marlena : A patient ?
Brady : Everything I tell you has to be ... covered by doctor / patient confidentiality .

Jade : Ow .
Joey : Are you okay ?
Jade : Joey , I m scared . I think I m getting worse .
Joey : Okay .
Jade : Will you just ... stay with me for a little bit until I feel better ?
Joey : Um ...
Jade : It s fine . If you do nt want to , just go .
Joey : No , I did nt say that . Um ...
Jade : Make whoever it is go away .
Joey : I ll be right back . Oh , hey , mom . What s up ?
Kayla : Hi .
Jade : Kayla , it s so nice of you to come check on me .
Kayla : Well , I m actually here to see Joey . I need to talk to you alone .
Steve : Listen , man , you ca nt tell anyone about this , all right ? Ruin my reputation .
Tripp : The Mr. Macho , Mr. Secret agent is afraid of needles ?
Steve : I just ca nt stand having my blood drawn that s all .
Tripp : Does nt bother me . Maybe we re not related after all .
Steve : We ll find out soon enough , wo nt we ?
Tripp : You know , this is just so weird .
Steve : I know . Seems like it s kinda out of the blue , huh ?
Tripp : That s what s so weird . I spend years trying to track down my birth parents , and then all of a sudden you and your wife just show up .
Steve : Listen ... if I had known I had a son out there , I would ve been looking for years , too . If it turns out you are my son , I m glad I found you .
Tripp : How about my mom ? Do you think she ll feel the same way ?
Chad : Hey , what are you doing ? No , no , no , no . It s fine .
Abigail : He s crying .
Chad : No , stay . He does that . It s -- you know , he cries in his sleep , he wakes himself up , and then he just settles himself down . He s okay .
Abigail : I just missed so much time with him . I hate that you know more about him than I do .
Chad : That s not true . Okay ? Not anymore .
Abigail : I m fine .
Chad : No , you re not . You were poisoned . You almost died because of me .
Abigail : Chad , stop . No . It s because of Deimos . Okay ? He s the one that hooked me and Gabi up to those IVs . It s because of you ... that I m alive .
Chad : Well , Gabi s not out of the woods yet .
Abigail : It s gon na be all right . She has to be .
Dario : How s she doing ? Um , you should ask her doctor about that .
Dario : I m asking you . Is her breathing okay ? Let s just say she s not out of the woods yet .
Marlena : Oh , I have a sinking feeling I know what you re about to say .
Brady : You usually do .
Marlena : You re helping Nicole ?
Brady : Yeah . I m in love with her . I m in love with her which means I have to do everything and anything that I can to help her and her baby .
Marlena : Well , you may or may not be in love with her ...
Brady : I am .
Marlena : But that does nt change the fact that she has defied court order and she has kidnapped a child .
Brady : [ Stammers ] She took her own daughter back .
Marlena : In the eyes of the court it s kidnapping . And if she keeps that child , she will have to stay on the run . And then that will be the life that you will have to lead , too .
Brady : Well , I ve decided , Marlena , and ... I want my future to be with her .
Marlena : Tell me this is nt going where I think it s going .
Abigail : Okay , let s go to the hospital .
Chad : What do you mean ?
Abigail : No , I m fine . I think -- I think we should go see Gabi . [ Sighs ]
Chad : I dont-- I do nt think that s a good idea .
Abigail : Chad , she s our friend .
Chad : I know , but we -- we--
Abigail : Yeah , I know . I know what we discussed , but it does nt matter anymore , Chad . Everything is different . So whatever boundaries that we set yesterday , that does nt apply anymore because Deimos , he came after us , he came after her , and so I think that it is really important for us to stand together . And I know I want Gabi to know that we re in her corner . I want her to know that we re both there .
Chad : You are ... the most amazing woman ...
Chad : I ve ever known .
Abigail : Ugh , very far from it . Far , far from it . But I think Gabi needs us so we should go .
Chad : Are you sure ?
Abigail : I am sure . I am sure . It s the right thing to do . So I m gon na go get some shoes and--[Groans ] Let s party !
Jade : I think whatever you have to say to Joey , you can say to me .
Kayla : Well , the fact is , it s not your call , jade .
Jade : Right . Um , I ll just go upstairs then .
Joey : You were kinda hard on her .
Kayla : Well , maybe you have nt noticed , but she does nt take subtle hints .
Joey : So what s the big deal that you have to talk to me alone ? This about dad and Ava s son ?
Kayla : Yeah . I think maybe we found your brother .
Steve : I can tell you this : Your mom was determined to find you , but she was given the same bad information I was .
Tripp : That I was dead ?
Steve : Yeah .
Tripp : Man , this is a lot to take in . [ Clears throat ]
Steve : I can imagine .
Tripp : But what about my mom ? You never finished telling me about her . Is she still looking for me ?
Steve : Tripp , I know this is hard and you got a lot of questions , but I do need to know for sure if you re my son before I tell you anything more about her .
Tripp : Cause if you re not my dad , she s not my mom .
Steve : I m just trying to look out for you .
Tripp : Well , it wo nt be long now .
Steve : No , it wo nt . The analysis of your tests has been delayed .
Steve : Do you know for how long ? I do nt , but I can call you ? Or dr . Johnson if you d like .
Steve : That d be great . Thanks .
Tripp : Well , now what do we do ?
Steve : I ll tell you what , come with me . Someone I want you to meet just in case .
Brady : Look , Marlena , I-- I do nt have amnesia , I remember the things that Nicole s done .
Marlena : I m not talking about her . I m talking about you . We both know that Nicole has made some very bad decisions and now you re telling me that you think you may be involved in some-- some illegal activity ?
Brady : What can I say ? I think she s doing the right thing and ... I love her . I love her .
Marlena : So you ve said . You love her ... and you think you re doing the right thing . Do you feel that way because you wanna make the life for her that Daniel wanted to make ?
Dario : Rafe was here , he had to get back to work .
Eduardo : Hey .
Dario : Hey .
Eduardo : Any change ?
Dario : No . Did you talk to her doctor ? I just saw her respiratory therapist , and I swear she-- I think she s worried about her .
Eduardo : Well , so s her doctor . I mean , she s stable , but she s -- she s not improving . Gabi . Gabi . If her breathing does nt improve , they may have to intubate .
Dario : Dad , that s not good . I had a buddy in L.A. That they had to put in one of those automatic breathing tubes , all right , once they did that , he was never able to breathe on his own again .
Eduardo : Yeah , but it does nt always go that way .
Dario : No , but it could . Okay ? I wanna tear Deimos Kiriakis from limb to limb .
Eduardo : Okay , we do nt have any proof yet that he s actually behind this .
Dario : Are you kidding me ? Everybody knows it was Deimos . It was Deimos who took Chad and Gabi and stuck them in that meat locker and now he s walking around like a free man . Now if the cops are nt gon na do anything about it , I am .
Eduardo : Okay , I feel you . I feel you , but please , we ca nt afford to do anything until we have dead man proof . He wants you to go after him . He wants you to retaliate in anger . He s counting on it . We can not afford to keep mindlessly escalating this war . We need to be smart and win it . Permanently .
Dario : Fine , I wo nt do anything .
Eduardo : All right .
Dario : But if anything happens to Gabi--
Eduardo : Okay , trust me . We will respond .
Joey : So you actually found him ?
Kayla : Well , we re not sure exactly , but there s a strong possibility he is your dad s son . They went to the hospital just now to do a paternity test .
Joey : So soon you ll know if he s really dad s son .
Kayla : Yeah .
Joey : And Ava s . Does he know she s dead ?
Kayla : Your dad decided that he would nt tell Tripp everything until we re sure . And even then I - I do nt know if he should know everything . I just--
Joey : That I killed her ?
Joey : I ll get it . Uh , you must be Tripp .
Tripp : And you might be my brother .
Brady : You know , I was in Nicole s life a long time before she even met Daniel . I was always there for her and vice versa . It just took me a long time to see it .
Marlena : You know I believe in love . This is not going to work . Nicole is going to be caught and she will lose the baby and she will go to jail .
Brady : No no . It s if she gets caught and I plan to do everything I can to prevent that from happening .
Marlena : Oh , you ve got this all figured out .
Brady : I m -- just about . Yeah .
Marlena : I see . Why did you call me ?
Brady : Be-- I mean , I - I--
Marlena : I know why you called me . Because you know as well as I do this is a dead end street . It s going nowhere . And then what about Tate ?
Abigail : How s Gabi ?
Dario : She s unconscious in a hospital bed ... because of you .
Abigail : Dario , do nt do that .
Dario : Do nt what ? Do nt tell the truth ? Because you keep dragging my sister into every mess that you create .
Chad : Last night I was under the impression--
Dario : I know , last night I was so relieved that no one had died that I did nt even get to process what had actually happened or why , but now--
Chad : And now you re -- now you re blaming me ?
Dario : You know , you and your family can make all the enemies you want , but you should really start thinking about your loved ones .
Abigail : Okay , this is supposed to be about Gabi .
Chad : I apologize that you re angry--
Dario : That s great ! That makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside , but the truth of the matter is-- is that if you had nt decided to go all DiMera , Deimos would nt have decided to go after your wife and my sister . And I think we both know why he did what he did . Why he took both of them .
Abigail : Can we please just focus on Gabi ?
Dario : You wanna focus on Gabi ? Okay . Gabi s not getting any better . Her breathing is labored and getting worse and the doctors ca nt figure out why . It s like she -- she s not even trying .
Abigail : [ Sighs ] Are you okay ?
Chad : Yeah .
Abigail : Okay . I should go check on him .
Chad : You okay ?
Abigail : Yeah .
Abigail : Wait , wait .
Marlena : Brady , this is so , so sad . And I ache for Nicole . But you ve got to think of Tate . And it s for his sake you have to give this up .
Brady : Ca nt do it . I told you I love her . I love her . You and dad , you always told me that when you re in love , being in love meant that you had to accept some sacrifices . You always told me that .
Marlena : Why does Tate have to make the sacrifice ? You re making the decision for him because he is too young to make it for himself . Brady ... does Nicole love you ? And if she doesnt-- I mean , are you making the sacrifice for no reason at all ?
Brady : I guess that s a chance that I m gon na have to take .
Eduardo : I wanna thank you for saving my daughter s life .
Chad : Um , Dario thinks that it s my fault that she s in here .
Eduardo : Yeah , well , Dario needs to be angry right now . It s easier than facing the possibilities . We re just very worried about Gabi .
Chad : Yeah , Abigail and I are too . We were hoping that there would be some good news .
Eduardo : There s nothing yet . Just have to wait .
Chad : This was Deimos . I ca nt prove it , but I know it .
Eduardo : Yeah , yeah . We re in the same position regarding that man . I will move on him eventually , but I do nt just want revenge . No , I wanna make sure that he is broken . I wanna see him in pieces . Powerless . But to do that , I need proof .
Chad : I ll get you the proof .
Eduardo : That s good . I m glad we re on the same page . She s not breathing well . Talking about putting her on a machine . You know , the thing is with that ... [ Sighs ] You do that , it s not clear that you can ever regain the strength to breathe on your own again , so , that s uh ... [ Sighs ] That s where we stand . If you ll excuse me I got ta go talk to her doctor .
Chad : Mm - hmm .
Abigail : Dario , hey , wait . [ Sighs ]
Dario : I m sorry . I m sorry that-- that I went off on Chad in front of you like that .
Abigail : It s okay . I understand how you feel . Hey , and so does he , but ... you were nt there . I mean , he saved Gabi s life . Really . So you need to be directing all of this anger at Deimos .
Dario : Trust me , I will make sure that Deimos pays for what he did , but what about what Chad did ?
Abigail : I know . I know that he provoked Deimos and I thought that it was a bad idea , too , but I--
Dario : I m not talking about Chad and Deimos . I m talking about him ... and you and Gabi .
Abigail : Okay . I know that Chad and Gabi got close , but you need to blame me for that because I m the one that let them think that I was dead .
Dario : And he made Gabi his primary grief counselor . He made sure she knew how lost and alone he was . How he s a single father now .
Abigail : No , it-- it s not like that .
Dario : I - I was there . You were nt . Let s go back to when you did come back , okay ? Chad ... Chad did nt want to let Gabi go . He did nt want to let go of all that love and understanding . He wanted to keep Gabi on a string . That jerk has two women in love with him and he does nt deserve either one of them .
Abigail : Dario , it s not even that -- it s not that simple .
Dario : I ll tell you what s simple . He has a wife . A wife who is beautiful ... and sweet and smart . Who deserves a husband who would treat her like that . You deserve someone who loves you and only you like-- like I do .
Kayla : Well , the nurse was right the lab is nt gon na have the results for a while . We re backed up .
Tripp : Well , that s just great .
Kayla : Well , there s nothing we can do about it .
Tripp : So , you knew my mother , right ? I mean -- I mean , the person that might be my mom ?
Kayla : Yeah . Yeah , I knew her .
Tripp : I know y all do nt wanna talk about her , do you at least know where she is now ?
Steve : Tripp , you know , I mean , we talked about this and , you know , we got ta get that DNA test first . Right ?
Jade : You must be the new brother . I m jade , Joey s ... roommate .
Tripp : I m Tripp ... possibly a new brother .
Joey : We re uh ... we re waiting to hear back .
Jade : Tripp , cool name .
Tripp : So is jade .
Joey : Jade , uh , you know , this is kind of a ... family thing .
Jade : And I m in the way , right ? Do nt worry , I just came down to get my tablet .
Kayla : Jade has nt really been feeling well . She s recovering from surgery .
Tripp : You got one good - looking roommate , dude .
Kayla : You know , I was wondering , uh , how did your adoptive parents feel about you looking for your birth parents ? I mean , you have nt said anything about them .
Tripp : Not much to say . My mom died when I was really young .
Kayla : I m sorry . And your dad ?
Tripp : I do nt know where the hell he is and I do nt really care .
Steve : He left ?
Tripp : I did . I got tired of him using me as his punching bag , so I split . But to cut him some slack , I m pretty sure he never really wanted a kid . Adopting me was my mom s idea .
Steve : How long have you been on your own ?
Tripp : I do nt know , five , six years . Look , I m not real good at talking about myself , okay ? So cool place , dude . What s the rent for a joint like this ?
Joey : I , uh -- I do nt know . My folks pay for it .
Tripp : Wow . Isa agent dad , doctor mom . They pay your rent . Looks like you won the parent sweepstakes . [ Laughs ] Maybe I can get in on that act , huh ?
Chad : You know , the , uh ... the cubs called . Apparently they re looking to scout you after hearing about that catch . Hammer Hernandez with the one- hander . Abigail said that she thinks that you and I have a-- a connection . I think she s right . We always have . We ve ... always just ... got each other . You know , ever since high school . This proves it . You understood exactly what I was doing and that I was nt ... choosing Abigail . And I knew I could count on you to catch that vile . I knew it in my heart . I mean , if my pitching coach could nt catch that , then , I mean , who the hell could ? You ve always known my mind . My heart . So I know you know that I-- I need you to pull through this . You have way too much to live for . Your family ... Ariana ... me . I ca nt lose you , Gabi . I wo nt .
Abigail : You re in love with me ? But I thought you were seeing someone . I was teaching you the dance moves so you could impress her . Unless there never was anyone , was there ?
Dario : Uh ... that s -- that s not one of my proudest moments , but ... things were just going that way and I just went with it . Look , I should nt have ever lied , okay ? But if I m gon na lay it all out there , I have to admit that I have been ... attracted to you ever since you came back to town and I found you in that alley .
Abigail : [ Exhales sharply ] Dario , you have been ... such a good friend to me and-- but I m married and ... I love Chad .
Dario : I know . I know . Just like I know he does nt deserve you .
Abigail : I ca nt let you talk about him like that .
Dario : You do nt wanna hear the truth . [ Abigail exhales sharply ] You love Chad , but he only loves you with half a heart and that is not fair .
Steve : Hey , Tripp , you know , my old man was a real nightmare , too . Me and my sister , we got really screwed up because of him . But you know what ? Now my sister , she s got about 3,000 people who love her , she s got an ex - husband , and a fiancé who both wanna marry her , she s got four great boys . I ve got Kayla , Stephanie , Joe . I never believed I could be this happy . You know what I m saying ? There s a pretty smart guy who once said , um , it gets better .
Tripp : I guess I ll have to wait and see .
Kayla : Dr. Johnson . Hi , the test results are in .
Victor : Going somewhere ?
Brady : I wanted to say goodbye to you . I m going on A ... vacation with Tate . An extended vacation .
Victor : With Nicole walker as your tour guide .
Brady : We re going to live together . My own little spin on the Brady bunch .
Victor : God you re so sweet and so stupid .
Brady : I will miss you . We could Skype . That way you can belittle me online .
Victor : Not gon na end well . You know that .
Brady : I know you ve never had a lot of faith in me , granddad , but this is gon na work . I have to do everything I possibly can to make sure that Nicole keeps Daniel s child .
Victor : When are you gon na stop trying to save lost causes ? Start saving yourself .
Dario : Why is nt she getting better ?
Eduardo : The doctors are doing all they can . It s up to her .
Chad : Hey . Are you okay ?
Abigail : Yeah , I m fine .
Chad : Yeah ? How d it go with Dario ? Did you get through to him ?
Abigail : I hope so . Did you hear anything new about Gabi ?
Chad : No , um ... they may have to start an intubation if her breathing does nt improve . Um ... I went in and ... it s hard to see her this way .
Abigail : Yeah , I know .
Eduardo : Hey , can you get Gabi s doctor down here ? Please ? Right away .
Chad : Hey , hey , is everything okay ?
Kayla : [ Sighs ] The results are positive . Tripp s your son .
Steve : I m -- I m really happy about this . I hope you are too .
Tripp : Yeah . Yeah .
Jade : Ow ! [ Groans ]
Kayla and Joey : Jade !
Kayla : Jade .
Joey : Hey , are you okay ? What happened ?
Kayla : Jade , are you all right ? Jade , take it easy . Take it easy . Take it easy .
Brady : I know how you feel about Nicole .
Victor : It s how I feel about you that matters . Regardless of what you think I-- I do want you to be happy .
Brady : I think we will be . Do me a big favor , will you say good - bye to Maggie for me , please ? And , uh ... tell her I love her ?
Victor : Brady , if you need anything -- anything at all ...
Brady : I know . [ Sniffles ] I know . I do love you . You know that ?
Victor : Yeah , I know .
Gabi : Is Cha-- is Chad here ? I thought I heard his voice .
Dario : No . It s just me .
Gabi : No , no , he said-- he said , um ...
Dario : Gabi , Gabi , you need to ... forget about Chad . He s with Abigail . He s with his family and you are with yours . Where you belong .
Eduardo : I do nt know what changed , but something-- something brought her back . She s fighting again . Her breathing is a lot better . I do nt think they re gon na have to put her on that damned machine .
Chad : Thank god . Oh ... thank God .

You are a helpful, respectful and honest assistant. Your task is to summarize the following dialogue. Your answer should be based on the provided dialogue only.
### Dialogue:
Ridge : Logan , I made it very clear our involvement with Nick is only in relation to parenting Jack .
Brooke : I agree . I - I do nt know why you re so upset .
Ridge : Cause of what I saw when I walked in here . The three of you were looking like a cozy little family .
Brooke : Ridge , we were posing for a picture . That s what you do at birthday parties .
Ridge : Generally , people just say , Cheese , and move on with it , Brooke . But the way you two were looking at each other , there s -- there s more to it . Logan , I want this to work . I really do . And it will work . I realize we re in the beginning stages of ironing out all the details and such , but I guess I have to say it again . I will share a child with Nick . I will not share you .
Rick : I really appreciate you meeting me here , Ms. Mayhue .
Woman : Oh , please . Call me Vivian . It s my pleasure . Let s sit . We are thrilled that you ve decided to have your wedding here at Il Giardino . Now , uh , let s take a look at the menu , sample some cakes . Is nt your fiancée coming ?
Rick : Um , yes . Uh , she ll be here perhaps a - a little late , but , uh , she would nt miss this for the world .
Vivian : Should we wait ?
Rick : Um , no . No , we can , uh-- we can start looking at the appetizers if you want .
Vivian : Wonderful . ( Giggles ) Okay . Well , I m sure you re already familiar with the regular menu , but did you know that we ve just recently added sautéed artichoke hearts ? Oh , and our stuffed mushrooms right there . They re to die for . We bring in the salt from the Mediterranean sea . We use pine nuts , balsamic drizzle ...
Stephanie : Ridge is never going to be happy , you know , with -- with Brooke raising that baby and -- and-- and -- and Nick involved .
Taylor : He s committed to Brooke , so I think he will try .
Stephanie : We both know that he ca nt do this . Please . Nick is an ass . He will never listen to Ridge , you know , about anything regarding parenting . You turn that baby over to Brooke , and that will end the relationship with Ridge . Let me be absolutely honest with you . It s a moment that I have waited for . I hope you will not let this opportunity pass .
Taylor : You are absolutely right . That s exactly perfect wording-- the moment you ve been waiting for , not me . Boy , this is just like old times-- you coaxing me to get between Ridge and Brooke . I ll tell you , but , Stephanie , at what cost to me ? I - I am not doing that . I am not going to get involved only to get my hopes up to be ... disappointed again .
Stephanie : I know how much he hurt you when he left . But I ve never stopped believing that you are the only woman for Ridge .
Taylor : ( Sniffles ) Oh , I ve missed you so much .
Stephanie : I ve missed you , too . Rick s too young for you .
Taylor : Rick s age is irrelevant . He has been there for me when nobody else has been able to , and he s been caring , and he s been supportive . How could I not love him ?
Stephanie : As much as you love Ridge ?
Taylor : Rick and I could be very happy together . But I do miss my family . And I miss being with Ridge .
Brooke : You wo nt Share me ? I m not a toy that you brought to the park , Ridge . I m my own person , and I m Jack s mother , and there s times when I m going to have to interact with Nick , like at this birthday party . Now I understand your expectations , and I need you to understand mine . I need to be able to take a picture with the father of my child without you freaking out . I mean , I - I ca nt even believe that we had to shoo everybody away to have this conversation .
Ridge : Well , it s kind of a sensitive issue for me , Logan . I backed your decision to be a mother to Jack because I love you . I did nt mean to embarrass you . And I certainly do nt begrudge you taking a birthday picture with your son . ( Sighs ) I m just asking you to be a little more aware of me . That s all I m asking . Yes , you are your own person . And I do nt own you . But the way you were looking at Nick , the love that was in your eye-- should nt that belong to me ? If I do nt own that , Brooke , why are we getting married ?
Rick : ( Sighs )
Vivian : Oh , my goodness . Your fiancée is nt here yet ? You poor thing , making all these decisions by yourself .
Rick : Um , yeah . She -- she had a - a commitment that she had . She felt she could nt miss it , but she will definitely be here .
Vivian : Well , we have nt discussed alcohol yet . Would you like an open bar ? A cash bar ?
Rick : ( Laughs nervously ) Uh , you know what , Ms. Mayhue ? Um , I--
Vivian : Vivian . Please .
Rick : Vivian . Yes . Of course . Um , why do nt you make me a meal based on the decisions that we ve made thus far ?
Vivian : Of course . You want to see how all of the tastes come together ?
Rick : Uh , yeah . Exactly .
Vivian : A meal for two ?
Rick : Yes . Because my fiancée is-- is gon na be joining me .
Vivian : Oh . Right . Well , if she does nt come , I d be more than happy to join you .
Rick : ( Chuckles )
Taylor : I will always love Ridge , but the two of us have moved on with other people .
Stephanie : How happy would it make your children ?
Taylor : My children are full grown . They do nt need their parents together to be happy .
Stephanie : Do nt you think you deserve the man that you want ?
Taylor : Rick loves me .
Stephanie : Why are you settling for Rick ? I know that he has seen you through rough times and ... ( Sighs ) he s a valiant young man , honestly , but he s not Ridge .
Taylor : ( Sighs )
Stephanie : Do nt you think it s time for you to go after what s yours ? ( Car horn honks )
Taylor : Oh , that s my taxi . Um , my car is in the shop . I ve got ta go to the party . Um , I m sorry .
Stephanie : ( Sighs )
Stephanie : Madison ? Yes , it s Stephanie . Um , do you know where Rick is ? Do you --I mean , do you have his calendar handy that you could tell me ? Yeah , I ll hold . Thank you .
Ridge : Logan , I just want to be the only man in your heart . That s all I m asking .
Brooke : You are . I promise .
Brooke : ( Sighs ) Look , maybe-- maybe I got too comfortable . And I assumed you always knew the way I feel about you , but I wo nt do that anymore . But because of Jack , I just need to be able to be around Nick and not worry if I m smiling too much or touching him the wrong way .
Ridge : You do nt see it , do you ? The way you two connect .
Brooke : No , I - I do nt , but I-- ( Sighs ) I heard your concern , and I promise that I am going to be sensitive to your insecurities , so let s just drop it .
Ridge : I m not just being insecure here . I m just telling you what I saw , and what I wo nt accept from now on .
Brooke : Oh , I see . So now I have to edit my behavior because of your irrational requests ? Is that it ?
Ridge : I just do nt want to be the outsider , watching you relate with your new precious family , and that s what s -- that s what it s feeling like to me , Brooke , and I ca nt put up with it . It s got ta stop .
Taylor : Excuse me . What s going on ?
Brooke : Taylor .
Taylor : ( Sighs ) It s Jack s birthday party , and the two of you are arguing ? What -- where s Jack ? He s taking a nap . He s fine .
Taylor : Look , if there s an issue between the two of you , I hope you get it worked out , because I did nt give Jack to you so that you could have more negativity brought into his life .
Brooke : No , he s not gon na be affected . Ridge and I just are nt seeing eye to eye on something . That s all .
Taylor : Yeah , I heard that . I heard that . So what ? Um , do you have a problem with -- with Jack being in the family now ? What ?
Ridge : No , I have a problem with the way Brooke is relating to his dad .
Brooke : Oh , my god . This really is nt the time .
Ridge : I walked in on Brooke and Nick taking a cozy little family picture with Jack , and just the way she was looking at him was just a bit too much , and I had to speak up .
Taylor : ( Sighs ) Brooke , I gave you Jack so that you could be his mother and bring stability into his life , not have you waffling his whole childhood between Ridge and Nick .
Brooke : Oh , for god sakes , Taylor . This is just so new to us . We re trying to figure out how to relate as parents .
Taylor : Ridge , did nt you and Nick have this worked out ?
Brooke : They did .
Taylor : ( Sighs ) You know , it does nt look like this is okay . I m -- I m thinking I made a terrible mistake .
Brooke : No , he s fine . Really .
Taylor : Well , it does nt look like it s fine , okay , Brooke ?
Ridge : You re getting all upset . You re getting all upset here . Let s just go out and get some air , all right ?
Taylor : I did nt even get to see Jack .
Ridge : He s upstairs sleeping . Come on . I need to get away from all this myself . Come on . Let s go .
Brooke : Are you coming back ?
Ridge : I do nt know .
Nick : Everything all right ?
Jackie : Do nt mind me . Just passing through .
Nick : You re leaving ?
Jackie : I have to , I m afraid . Wish I could stay , but I ca nt . Give my grandson another birthday kiss for me , would you , darling ? Another one for you , too . Bye . Brooke , always a pleasure .
Nick : Come on . He did nt get that bent out of shape over a picture .
Brooke : Could you please just try to be a little more sensitive when we re together ?
Nick : What did I do ?
Brooke : I do nt know . But we both did it . ( Sighs ) Look , never mind . ( Sighs ) I just need to be a little more careful when I m around you .
Nick : Where d Forrester go anyway ?
Brooke : He left ... with Taylor .
Vivian : Oh , thank you .
Rick : Thank you .
Vivian : Do you know when she ll be arriving ?
Rick : Uh , she s not answering her cell phone .
Stephanie : Hello , Rick .
Rick : Stephanie . Um , I ll tell you what . I ll let you know when-- when she shows up , okay ?
Vivian : Okay .
Stephanie : Hello .
Vivian : Hello . In the meantime , please thing about tablecloths .
Rick : Okay .
Vivian : Yeah , I know you mentioned magenta , but I was thinking maybe something a little flashier .
Rick : So what brings you here ? Lunch ?
Stephanie : No . I came to see you .
Rick : Okay .
Stephanie : I do nt think Taylor s going to go through with your marriage .
Rick : ( Laughs ) Oh , my god . Really ?
Stephanie : I did nt come here to hurt your feelings , all right ? I just felt you should know what Taylor is thinking .
Rick : Look , I know why you re here , Stephanie . You were hoping to break the news to me that Ridge is still the love of Taylor s life .
Stephanie : ( Sighs )
Rick : Taylor and I had a talk about the ridiculous conversation she had with my mom . I m all clued in , and the wedding is still on .
Stephanie : I wish you would take what I m saying seriously , because I just spoke to Taylor . I believe she wants to get together again with Ridge .
Taylor : Hmm . I really did nt think , uh , your office would be the place that you d bring me to get some air .
Ridge : Well , I just have to find these papers , and then we can get going .
Taylor : No , I - I just need a little space . I m glad , um ... I just got a little wound up . Thanks .
Ridge : For the ride ?
Taylor : No , I - I mean for getting me out of there . ( Sighs ) Brooke gets me so riled up sometimes . Damn it . You know , I - I-- I m thinking I m making the right decision for Jack , and then somehow she starts me second - guessing myself .
Ridge : Taylor , I want to apologize . It was not my intention to , uh ... ( Sighs ) mess up things at Jack s birthday for you .
Taylor : I do nt blame you . I think Brooke should have been a little more sensitive to you . I - I do nt know . I guess I m one to talk .
Ridge : What does that mean ?
Taylor : Well , I was so concerned about doing what was best for Jack that I did nt really-- I did nt stop to think about how it might impact you .
Ridge : Raising Nick s son ?
Taylor : I should have talked to you about it first . I m sorry .
Ridge : No , it s all right .
Taylor : Well , no . You and I both know what it s like to be on the perimeter of Nick and Brooke , and it is nt fun , and I - I - I just did nt have the intention of putting you there .
Ridge : Well , you did nt really . I mean , I ve pretty much been doing it to myself . But thank you for saying something . I wish you d come to me , Taylor . This whole past year , all the difficulties you were going through , and your inability to talk to anyone about any of it .
Taylor : I was so ashamed . I - I did nt want to talk to anybody about it .
Ridge : You can talk to me about anything . You got that ? You will always be important to me , Doc . There is nt anything I would nt do for you . - Who wants pot roast ? - Well , is nt this nice ?
Rick : Taylor will always be very fond of her memories with Ridge . Look , they-- they were together a very long time . They share children together . But I m not threatened by that . She s in love with me now . She wants to marry me .
Stephanie : You have been very good for her . There s no denying it . And she does love you in her own way . But she s been lost ever since they broke up . I do nt think she s capable of being with another man . Rick , you came along . You wanted to rescue her . It felt good to be taken care of . But the truth is , youve-- you ve just enabled her , as a couple of other people have , to forget for a while that she s still in love with Ridge .
Rick : I think you re -- you re -- you re romanticizing her feelings for Ridge just-- just a tad , Stephanie . Look , I know Ridge is your favorite , but I think you re overlooking the fact that he s not exactly been very kind to the women he s been with in the past . Look , he was my stepfather for -- for some time when I was a kid growing up , and he did nt exactly treat my mom very well , and he s certainly not worthy of Taylor . Taylor and I are getting married here next week . Now if you would excuse me , I have some cake to sample .
Taylor : I wish I - I had come to you . I was just going through so much this past year , and I really wish I had had somebody who--
Ridge : Who really understood you ?
Taylor : Well , I ve had-- I ve had Rick . He s been really great . And , uh , he s been there for me in a way that I do nt know if anybody else could have . If it were nt for him , I think I might have-- well , I m pretty sure I would have been drinking again . I might have been dead , or at least dead inside .
Ridge : ( Sighs ) So the wedding s next week , huh ?
Taylor : It is . And -- and what about you guys ?
Ridge : Well , not next week , but soon .
Taylor : For the record , I think-- I think you did the right thing saying all that to Brooke .
Ridge : I suppose I should be a little more understanding with Nick and Brooke when it involves their son s birthday . ( Sighs ) I just kind of figured we d be settled into a peaceful , happy life raising our families together now , but everything s so complicated . And now having Jack into the mix , it kind of makes me question everything .
Taylor : So he is a problem for you ?
Ridge : No , I - I - I did nt really mean it like that .
Taylor : Yes . Yes . Yes , you did . And that s my fault . I m -- I m so sorry . Do you really think you ll be able to do this ? Do you think you can raise Nick s child ? Do you think you can be a stepfather to this baby ?
Ridge : Well , I know it s gon na be complicated . That s for sure .
Taylor : Listen to me , Ridge . If -- if this is going to affect you like this , if you re going to be plagued by all these negative feelings about Nick , then I - I just think you should get out before it s too late . I mean it , Ridge . Do nt do it . Do nt .
Ridge : Do nt do my wedding ?
Taylor : If you do , you re going to be miserable . You re never going to be happy . Do nt . Please , Ridge , just do nt do it . Do nt marry Brooke .
Brooke : How dare you ? This confirms everything that I was saying . You re not interested in Rick . I am sorry that you re still in love with Ridge and you ca nt seem to move on with your life , but just mind your own business , Taylor . Ridge and I are going to be married . We have a family . So just stay away from us . Do you hear me ? Stay the hell away .

### Dialogue:
Bonnie : Hey , what ? [ Groans ] What the hell do you think you re doing ? Do you know how much cigarettes cost these days ?
Mimi : You quit smoking , Mom , remember ?
Bonnie : Oh -- ow !
Mimi : The band s hardly a fashion statement . It s supposed to remind you not to smoke .
Bonnie : You are a major buzz kill , you know that ?
Mimi : Really ? Well , how interesting you can even be experiencing a buzz when our friends family members are being murdered left and right by a deranged serial killer .
Bonnie : Ha ha . Ha ha ha ha . Yeah , baby , do nt dis your boyfriend .
Mimi : Rex is not the killer , Mom .
Bonnie : Ha ha .
Mimi : He was put in jail by mistake . He is innocent .
Bonnie : Oh , yeah , whatever . As long as he has a good 401k plan .
Mimi : Oh , you think that s funny ?
Bonnie : [ Chuckles ]
Mimi : What s that ?
Bonnie : Nothing important . It s just a receipt . It s just --
Mimi : This is a list of Maggie Horton s personal belongings .
Bonnie : Give that back to me .
Mimi : Oh , my God , you re going to try and sell them , are nt you ? You re going to sell them and pocket the money , just like you did with Jack s stuff .
Bonnie : Well , duh .
Mimi : No . I am not going to let you do it .
Nicole : You re going to kill me , are nt you ?
Victor : You should have let me strangle you while I had the chance , because by the time I m done with you , you re going to wish you were dead .
Brady : She was an amazing woman , was nt she ?
Shawn : You promised that you d always be here for me . [ Sobs ] How will I go on without you ?
Shawn : Kimberly . Oh , my God .
Kimberly : Oh .
Shawn : [ Sobs ]
Kimberly : Papa ... Mama s always going to be here for you . She always will be .
Bo : What s the deal with this thing ? What the hell ? It s Mom .
Caroline : How could you do it , Bo ? How could you let me die ?
Hope : Oh , my God .
Caroline : I trusted you . I believed in you . You told me I d be safe .
Bo : Ma , look , I tried to save you . I did everything I could .
Caroline : You let me down , Bo -- your own Mother . You re a failure ... as a Son and as a man .
Hope : Turn it off . Turn it off .
Bo : No , no , it s Mom .
Caroline : I should have known no good would come from your life . My own Son -- letting me die . I hope you re happy .
Hope : Bo , please , turn it off . Turn it off . It s awful . Turn it off .
Bo : Get away from me !
Nicole : I wish I were dead . At least I d be free from you .
Victor : Careful what you wish for , my dear .
Nicole : Divorce papers . Well , $ 100,000 is better than nothing . Give me a pen . I ll sign them right now .
Victor : Any agreement that we had before is null and void . There will be no money -- not one thin dime .
Nicole : What ? How can you do this to me ? How will I survive ? Where will I go ?
Victor : Frankly , my dear , I do nt give a damn .
Brady : You know , Shawn , I always thought of -- of Caroline as being my Grandmother , too . I guess it was because my Dad thought he was a Brady all those years . Turned out he was nt , he was really John Black , but even so , Caroline and Shawn always treated him like a Son , and me like a -- like a Grandson .
Shawn - d : Yeah , she always thought of you that way , too .
Brady : Hey , you know what ? I still remember when -- when Marlena and my Dad , they brought belle over to see you , when you had just gotten back from your around - the - world trip with your parents , and Caroline -- she took one look at you and Belle playing together , and she predicted that the two of you would become Husband and Wife one day .
Shawn - d : Yeah , well , she was right .
Brady : You re sure about that ?
Shawn - d : Oh , yeah , yeah . Belle and I are going to get married someday . Nothing could keep that from happening .
Shawn : So did you just get in ?
Kimberly : Yeah , I flew out this morning . I did nt know whether I could get a flight or not . That s why I did nt call .
Shawn : Bless you . Bless you for coming .
Kimberly : Oh , Papa .
Shawn : Oh .
Kimberly : Papa , I wish , um ... I wish I d been here sooner , when Ma found out that she was in danger . I wish that I could have helped in some way .
Shawn : There was nothing anybody could do to help , Kim . Nothing . Keep telling myself that . Otherwise , I d go crazy .
Kimberly : Oh , Papa , Papa , come here . Come here . Your family s here for you . You know that ? And Mama would want you to be okay . She d want you to carry on . She d want you to be here for all of us .
Shawn : Yes , she would have wanted that .
Kimberly : She would , because you know what ? We need you now more than ever .
Shawn : And that s why -- that s why I m going to get through this . [ Sobs ] For my kids , my Grandkids . Oh ... I am so blessed , so blessed .
Kimberly : Papa , we all are . I mean , to have had Mama ... to have had Mama for as long as we did , to have experienced that kind of love from that woman , the joy , that kind of joy -- I mean , that s what we have to focus on right now , Papa , right ? Right ?
Shawn : Yes . Yes ... and we have to stop this killing .
Kimberly : We will , Papa .
Shawn : We will .
Shawn : [ Sighs ] The boys are going to find out who did this to you , Caroline . [ Sighs ] But you ve got to help them . You got to show them the way , give them guidance , help them all you can .
Hope : Bo , turn it off .
Bo : No . I want to hear what she has to say .
Caroline : Wondering how I can talk to you like this when I m dead ? It s simple . This device you re holding is a conduit to hell .
Hope : Why are you doing this to yourself ? The killer somehow managed to do some sort of special video effect to freak you out . You know what ? You re letting him do it .
Caroline : I raised you to be a good man and a good Son ... but you did nt protect me from evil , did you ? Your own Mother . O - o - oh . Oh ! Aah ! Aah ! Oh ! Aah ! Aah ! You -- you got to help me escape ! Aah ! Help me ! Help me !
Hope : That s it . That s enough . Turn it off .
Bo : No , no , no .
Hope : Turn it off , Bo !
Bo : Hope , I m not going to abandon her .
Caroline : [ Screaming ]
Shawn - d : Why does it take someone dying to realize how important they are to you ? I mean , why did nt I ever tell her ? I --
Brady : I m sure she knew , Shawn .
Shawn - d : How ? How ? You know , all the times I would come here , I d tell her what was going on with me ... I never even thanked her for listening . And I never asked her how she was --
Brady : No , Shawn , do nt -- do nt do this to yourself now , okay ? I mean , you made your Grandmother very , very proud . She was proud of all of us .
Shawn - d : You know ... that this used to be the Brady Fish Market , and before that , the Bradys ran a junkyard . Yeah , that s my family history . But I ll tell you something -- I m damn proud of it , cause through the good times and the bad , my Grandmother has always been there ... with her understanding and her wisdom .
Shawn : I ca nt believe it .
Nicole : You are hardly in the driver s seat where this divorce is concerned . If you do nt cough up some major dough , I am not moving out .
Victor : You re hardly in a position to call the shots here , Nicole .
Nicole : Do nt underestimate me , Victor . I took out a little insurance just in case this day might come .
Victor : Insurance .
Nicole : Mm - hmm . Remember when you tried to choke me to death ? Yeah . I captured that happy little moment , just for posterity .
Victor : You mean you have some photographs . Are nt you clever ?
Nicole : Yes , I am . And I am quite prepared to take those photos to the Salem Police Department and charge you with spousal abuse , sex slavery , and anything else my imaginative little mind can conjure up .
Victor : [ Chuckles ]
Victor : Yes , Salem Police Department , I d like to speak to Commander Brady about one of his more high - profile unsolved crimes .
Nicole : What are you doing ?
Victor : Yes , I m talking about the murder of Colin Murphy .
Caroline : [ Screaming ] How could you do this to me , Bo ? How could you let this happen ? !
Hope : For God s sakes , turn it off . Turn it off , Bo , please .
Caroline : Aah ! It s too late ! You let me die ! Your own Mother !
Bo : Damn it . Come on . I ca nt get her back .
Hope : Give me the PDA , please . Give me your PDA , Bo . Give it to me .
Bo : Will you stop it ?
Tek : Bo , this just came for you .
Bo : Oh , my God it s from my Mom .
Mimi : The Horton family would have a collective heart attack if they knew that you were making a profit off Maggie s belongings .
Bonnie : Will you keep your voice down before the whole world hears ?
Mimi : The hotrods will find out , Mom . They re smart people . They ll figure out what you ve been up to , and they ll report you to the police , and we ll lose everything .
Bonnie : Such a drama queen .
Mimi : I ll lose my friends because they ll no longer respect me , and you ll lose your freedom . Do you not care about that ? Your freedom ?
Bonnie : I love that you love me so much and care for me so ...
Mimi : Oh , I get it . So this is your way of ignoring everything I said and pretending to be all motherly , like I m the one who has the problem .
Bonnie : You are . You re a worrywart , and if you do nt cheer up , you re going to get tons of wrinkles and gray hair .
Mimi : [ Groans ]
Bonnie : Sweetheart , sweetheart , I got to go . I will see you at the wake for Mrs. Brady . Come on . So sad -- all these people dying like flies .
Mimi : And if that is nt bad enough , my Mother is a vulture .
Hope : What is it , Bo ?
Bo : It s addressed to me . From Mom .
Tek : We ran it through x - ray , and everything checked out .
Bo : All right , we re gon na want to send it down to the lab for prints , et cetera .
Tek : All right , I ll get on that now .
Bo : Uh , uh , wait . Make arrangements . Um , leave it here with me in the interim , okay ?
Tek : All right , sure .
Alice : Oh , my dear , sweet Caroline . We grieve our loss , but we must treasure the time that we had with you . You added so much to our lives -- your generosity ... wonderful sense of humor ... your kindness . But you were nt the killer s first victim , and I m sure you wo nt be the last . Dear God , when will the streets of Salem be safe again ? When will we ever feel safe again ?
Bonnie : Oh , my ga - rosh ! Oh ! Oh , Mr. Horton . Wow , look at all this food . What an outpouring of love .
Mickey : Yeah , the neighbors have been very generous .
Bonnie : They certainly have . So , if you want I should make you a plate of something , maybe ?
Mickey : No , no , I m afraid I do nt have any appetite .
Hope : Hey , wait a second . Wait a minute , wait a minute . There s a note in here .
Bo : That s Mom s personal stationery .
Hope : Do you want me to read it ?
Bo : Yeah .
Hope : Dear Bo , as I write this , I m sitting in the Brady Pub at the bar . I just told your -- I just told your Mother I needed to jot something down , and she generously gave me some of her own stationery . She said she usually does nt keep stationary down at the bar , but she had written her Daughter Kimberly a note earlier . Kim had called asking for her Mom s Irish bread recipe , and Caroline had been happy to oblige . I mentioned to her that I thought her bread was great . She said she d love to give me a loaf , since she d just baked two , but she promised one to her Son . And just then , you came into the bar . Caroline gave me a wink and told me she d be right back . She said she had to talk to you and give you the bread . I saw you , Bo . You were in your official police mode -- big hurry , important criminals to catch and lock up . You asked your Mom for a cup of coffee to go . She filled your order . You leaned over the bar , and you gave her a quick kiss on the cheek , and then you dashed out . You were so intent on going out and finding the killer that you never even saw me sitting there . Caroline came back to me , told me that it was my luck you were in such a hurry . You did nt pick up your bread . So she gave it to me , and now I m sending it to you . After all , it is the last loaf your Mom ever baked for you . Enjoy it .
Bo : Oh , my God . This is from the bastard who killed Mom .
Hope : She obviously knew him -- or her -- very well .
Bo : And they were right there . Hope , the killer was just a few feet away from me .
Hope : Bo , you could nt have known .
Bo : I should have known ! This psycho s laughing at me . They killed Mom , and I did nothing to prevent it -- not a damn thing !
Hope : Bo , were you at the Pub right before your Mom was killed , getting coffee ?
Bo : Yeah . Yes , I was there .
Hope : Okay , well , try and picture it in your mind . Can you remember who was sitting at that bar ?
Bo : No , Hope . I ca nt . Damn it ! I m a cop . I m supposed to be aware of everything and everybody around me , especially now when we got a serial killer on the loose ! Damn it , I could have prevented this ! I could have saved my Mom !
Shawn - d : I ca nt believe it .
Brady : What ? What ca nt you believe ?
Shawn - d : This is my teddy bear from when my Mom and Dad and I sailed around the world . My Grandmother gave it to me . I have nt seen this thing in ages .
Brady : Well , how d it get there ?
Shawn - d : I have no idea .
Brady : Well , I have never seen it there on the windowsill before .
Shawn - d : Yeah , me neither .
Shawn - d : Someone must have put it there , but who ?
Shawn - d : Hello ? Belle . Hey . Yeah , no , I -- I was just thinking about you . Yeah , I m hanging out with your Brother . I know . I know , it s horrible . But , uh , hey , you know what ? You remember my teddy bear that I had ? Yeah , I know . It s going way back . Yeah , I just found it . No , no , here at the Pub . I -- I ca nt believe it . I have nt seen this thing since I was , what , 7 ? Yeah , maybe my Grandmother put it out before she died . Sending me a sign ? You know , I think you re right . I had nt even thought about it . That s what this has to be . I love you . You re brilliant .
Nicole : Hi . This is Nicole s cell phone . You know what to do .
Victor : Yes , I ll hold .
Nicole : Go ahead . Tell the police I killed Colin . Tell everyone . Then it will be my turn to blab how you covered it up . Sure , I ll go to jail for murder , then you ll get locked up , too -- as an accessory . And you know what the best part will be for me ? That you have to admit to your Sons Bo and Philip and your grandson Brady all the rotten things that you ve done . And what will they think of you then , Victor , while you re doing 10 to 20 in the state pen ?
Nicole : Good choice , vice .
Victor : It s not what you think .
Nicole : Sure , it is . We just played a game of chicken , and I won .
Victor : Do nt be delusional . I m not afraid to turn you in .
Nicole : Then why did you hang up ?
Victor : I did it because I do nt want to hurt Brady . It would be like a slap in the face to him to find out that his Step - Grandmother s a murdering whore , totally beyond salvation . I can wait .
Nicole : So , now that we re back to square one , you want me gone , but I m not leaving here until I m financially compensated for the hell you put me through . I want $ 5 million , and I m not leaving here until I get it .
Victor : Nicole , pack Mrs. Kiriakis things . She ll be moving out today .
Nicole : If you leave me penniless , I will go after Brady and turn him against you just like that . Is that what you want , to lose your Grandson to me ?
Mimi : Hey , Brady .
Brady : Hi .
Mimi : The wake s upstairs , right ?
Brady : Yes , but not for a while , so make yourself comfortable . I ll be back in a minute .
Mimi : Mom said she d meet me here . What s taking her so long ?
Bonnie : Oh , Mr. Horton . I ve decided to take all these goodies down to the shelter . You know , those poor homeless people almost never get great desserts like this .
Mickey : Yeah , well , that s fine . Take some of this home for you and Connor .
Bonnie : That is so sweet of you , but I never eat sugary stuff .
Bonnie : Mmm . Quit stuffing your face , and make small talk with the old coot . And then get upstairs and grab dead red s designer duds . Ha ha ! Do nt you listen to that truck stop trollop . Look at Mickey . He s suffering so much . He needs your compassion . Befriend him . Help him through this time of grief . Stop it ! Both of you . I know what I have to do .
Mickey : Excuse me ? What did you say ?
Bonnie : I know what I have to do . I have to make you some tea .
Mickey : No . No , thanks .
Bonnie : Okay , well , then I m done in here . I ll just go upstairs and get to work .
Mickey : That s fine . That s fine . And I ll pack up Mrs. Horton s things and get them out of the house for you .
Mickey : What ? !
Bonnie : I mean -- I mean it just -- I think that you seem so sad . You do nt want to be opening that closet and getting all upset seeing Mrs. Horton s stuff in there , especially knowing she s never going to ... come home again .
Mickey : Bonnie , you re not taking my wife s clothing out of this house . Absolutely not . It s way too soon .
Bonnie : But I thought you wanted --
Mickey : No !
Bonnie : But --
Mickey : Look , bonnie , just get out .
Bonnie : No --
Mickey : Out , I said ! Get out of here right now !
Bo : What are we doing here ? We should be working on this case .
Hope : Bo , we also need to mourn your mother . We need to be witH the family , okay ? Come on .
Bo : Hey , Kimber .
Kimberly : Mm .
Bo : I m sorry , really sorry .
Hope : We re so glad you re here .
Kimberly : Thanks , Hope . I was upstairs with Pop , and he s having a real hard time of it . I mean , why would nt he , losing her so sudden like that ?
Bo : Yeah , well , it s my fault . I m the reason she s dead .
Hope : Would you stop saying that ?
Bo : It s true . I could have saved her . I will avenge her death .
Kimberly : Hope , um , do you mind if I have a couple of minutes with my Brother ? Is that okay with you ?
Hope : No , no , of course . I ll go check on your Dad and Gran .
Kimberly : Thank you so much . Hey , tough guy , you got a couple of minutes for me ? Come on . Take a load off . Have a seat . It s been a long time . Bo , what I wanted to tell you is that from the bottom of my heart , I want you to stop blaming yourself . We just lost our Mother . That s a terrible loss you re suffering right now .
Bo : We had warning , Kimber . We knew she was going to be next , and we did nt stop -- I did nt stop them .
Kimberly : Because you could nt . Mama would nt want you punishing yourself like this . Now , that s the last thing that Mama would have wanted . But we all got to express our grief . We got to cry , we got to mourn , but this bitterness of yours is --
Bo : What do you want me to do , be happy that Mom s dead ? Huh ? Look on the bright side ? There ai nt no silver lining here , Kimber .
Kimberly : Mama believed in God , and she believed in an afterlife . She s in Heaven right now , and she s waiting for us . And we re going to all be there with her someday , Bo . And in the meantime , little Brother , do nt you go forgetting the principles that she taught you how to live your life , how to love your neighbor as yourself .
Bo : Are you kidding me with this Sunday school stuff ? Do you really want me to forgive the bastard who killed Mom in cold blood ?
Shawn - d : Amen .
Shawn - d : You said that this guy would keep me safe , that he d watch over me and protect me through the night . I know where you are now , Grandma . I know that you re safe and protected . So , in case you need some extra love , right ?
Shawn - d : That s all I got to give .
Shawn - d : I m going to miss you . I love you , okay ? I always will . I love you .
Hope : I ve never seen Bo like this , Gran . He s so full of hate and anger . He blames himself for his Mom s death . I do nt know what to do .
Alice : Darling ...
Hope : How do I help him ?
Alice : Dear , all you can do is to love him and support him . And wait . Time heals . I know that better than anyone .
Hope : Is that really all it takes -- time ?
Alice : No , for Bo to really find peace , he s going to have to learn to forgive .
Bo : I ll never forgive the bastard who killed Ma . No way .
Kimberly : Maybe you need to sort out your feelings . You want to talk to Marlena ? Is that it ?
Bo : I love you , and I know you re trying to help , but there s no way in hell I ll ever let go of this anger . I will use every ounce of strength I have to make sure that son of a bitch suffers just as much as he s made our family suffer . And even then , it wo nt be enough , Kimber . It will never be enough !
Brady : Hey .
Shawn - d : Hey .
Brady : I was just upstairs when you came down , and I saw what you did with the bear .
Shawn - d : Yeah . Made me feel better somehow .
Brady : Good . I m glad . It was Belle s idea , was nt it ?
Shawn - d : Yeah . Yeah , how d you know ?
Brady : Just sounds like her . Sounds like something Chloe would do , too .
Shawn - d : Yeah , um ... have you spoken to her lately ?
Brady : No . No , not in a while .
Shawn - d : Well , she s probably going to be gone for a long time then , huh ?
Brady : Yeah , the tour is going to run for a couple more years . It s a huge success . I ve been keeping track of it on the internet , and I tell myself every single night , do nt go to Cecelia Marin s website . And I always do .
Shawn - d : Well , maybe it s time you start moving on with your life .
Brady : I am . I m working .
Shawn - d : No , I do nt mean work . I mean dating .
Nicole : Is what s in those magazines any better than this ?
Victor : Promise me you ll never get involved with Nicole . All I want is for you to be happy , Brady . And I know in the long run , she ll never , ever make you happy . Honor me by giving me your word on this .
Brady : Yes . Yes , I promise . Yes , I ... I do nt want to hurt Chloe s feelings by moving on without at least talking to her first about it .
Shawn - d : I understand . I mean , it was nt too long ago ...
Brady : What ?
Shawn - d : That I , um ... well , I was getting involved with -- well , I was nt really getting involved , but I was helping out this girl without talking to Belle , and , uh ...
Brady : Jan Spears .
Shawn - d : Oh , yeah . Man , am I glad that she left town .
Jan : Yes . This is Jan Spears . That s right . I want the mansion redone top to bottom . Yep , I m back in Salem , and I m planning on staying . There s some very important things I need to take care of .
Victor : There s no way you re going to be able to get your talons into my Grandson s heart .
Nicole : You want to bet ? You ve seen the way he looks at me . You have all your money , your -- your bodyguards , but you ca nt stop me from making Brady fall in love with me . There s no ammunition you can use against me , not with him .
Victor : That s where you re wrong , my dear . You see , I have Chloe Lane .
Nicole : What ?
Victor : That s right . I m bringing Chloe back to Salem .
Bonnie : Ooh .
Mimi : Mom --
Bonnie : Shh , shh , shh , shh , shh .
Mimi : Oh , I can tell by the look on your face your mission of charity did nt go so well .
Bonnie : I think Mickey s on to me .
Mimi : I knew it ! Oh , I m ruined . I m going to lose all my friends , and you re going to go to jail .
Mickey : Bonnie . We need to talk . On the next Days of Our Lives
Hope : I am so worried about Bo .
Shawn : We have to find a way to help him .
Kimberly : Yes , we do , or his anger will consume him .
Bo : I failed you , Ma . And I ll never forgive myself . But I will get revenge . When I get my hands on your murderer , I will not wait for the courts to do their thing . I ll send the monster that took you away from us straight to hell .
Bonnie : Are those flowers for little old me ?
Mickey : I want you to know I worship the ground you walk on .
Bonnie : Yahoo ! Whoo - hoo - hoo !
Shawn : Well , I know who the guilty party is .
Kimberly : Who do you think it is , Pop ?
Shawn : Nicole Kiriakis .

### Dialogue:
Brooke : Do you realize how angry this makes me , eric ? How this makes me feel ?
Eric : I do .
Brooke : Okay . Well , then kick shauna out .
Eric : Brooke , I sympathize . I really do . But shauna is quinn s dearest friend .
Brooke : Okay , then kick quinn out , too . She s the puppeteer behind all of this .
Eric : Brooke , I m gon na get you a water .
Brooke : I do nt need water , eric . I need shauna out . You know , more than anybody , what ridge and i have been through to be together . You know the obstacles that we ve had to face-- betrayal , arguments , my struggle with alcohol . Eric , we ve always managed to come back together . We ve managed to work things out , and we re gon na do that again this time . We will reunite . But I need your help , please . I am begging you . Send shauna and quinn packing . Send them back to vegas , back to the desert where they belong .
Ridge : I had to tell brooke we kissed cause I do nt want to keep secrets from her , not if I want to save my marriage .
Shauna : Well , I hope brooke will appreciate your honesty and that you guys will be able to work things out if that s what s gon na make you happy . No matter what happens , I will always be here for you , whatever you want and whatever you need .
Bill : [ Whispering ]
Will : All right , mom , out with it . What s this meeting about ?
Katie : Well , since you asked like that , um , it s about gratitude . I m just grateful . That s why I called you all together . [ Knock on door ] Oh .
Bill : Come in .
Sarah : Sorry to interrupt .
Bill : What is it , sarah ?
Sarah : There s a guest outside to see you .
Bill : Who ?
Sarah : She said her name s florence .
Bill : I do nt know any florence . Tell her to get lost . She s wyatt--
Bill : Like I said , tell her to get lost .
Katie : Bill . You can show her in . Thank you . Hi . Thanks for coming .
Flo : Thank you for inviting me .
Bill : Now I know why brooke was nt included , or hope .
Wyatt : Uh , am I late ?
Flo : Wyatt .
Wyatt : [ Chuckles ]
Flo : You came .
Wyatt : I just did nt know what you were walking into , so--
Katie : Gratitude . That s the only reason why I invited you here today . Flo gave up a part of herself so that I could live . And that s why I m asking all of you ... to offer a little forgiveness , forgiveness that she deserves .
Katie : I hate that flo went along with the lie . It hurt our family terribly . But life is short , and it s too precious , and I have to acknowledge what she did for me , what she did for us and for our son .
Will : I do nt know a lot about what happened with beth . The adults do nt exactly tell me everything . But I know you saved my mom , so you get a second chance from me , or even a zillion chances .
Flo : Thank you , will . I said some pretty harsh things to you before I got sick . I said that storm would be ashamed of you . I was wrong . He d be so proud of you . I know that . And I m proud . I m proud to call you a logan . Flo is a part of us , and we need to welcome her back into the family .
Quinn : Unbelievable . Beyond offensive .
Shauna : Quinn , slow down . What is going on ?
Quinn : I just overheard brooke talking to eric-- ranting , actually , like a lunatic-- about you and me .
Shauna : What ?
Quinn : That horrible woman is trying to destroy us both .
Eric : Brooke , why do nt you sit down for a minute , okay ? I ll get you that water .
Brooke : I told you I do nt need it , eric .
Eric : What do you need ? Need a hug ? Need a punching bag ? Cause I can do those things for you , and I will .
Brooke : Eric , you have been my biggest supporter . And you ve always believed in my relationship with ridge . So do nt desert us now , please . Not when we need you the most . Help me . Just help me get rid of shauna and quinn .
Shauna : The only reason ridge told her about kissing me is because he wanted to be completely honest with her . He does nt want to get divorced . And if brooke would just stop freaking out over it , maybe she d realize that .
Quinn : Rational thoughts is nt one of brooke s strong suits . Come on . The gall of that woman to come into my home and tell my husband who can and ca nt stay there , telling him to end our marriage . [ Scoffs ] There is no way in hell I m letting brooke get away with this .
Eric : Quinn is my wife . I m not gon na divorce her , even if you show up and suddenly tell me I should . Now , if ridge is off kissing another woman , sending her off to the desert is not gon na solve your problems . Look , I hate to do this , but I have to go to the office .
Brooke : Oh , no . I -- I understand , really . I should probably go there myself . It would help distract me and get me out of this head space .
Eric : [ Chuckles ] Okay .
Brooke : Wait . Where s my-- I swear I had my phone right here .
Eric : I have nt seen it . Are you sure you had it ?
Brooke : Yeah . I did . But , you know , I do nt want to hold you up , eric . Why do nt you go to the office ? Then I ll look for it , and then , um , I ll see you over there , okay ?
Eric : Hey .
Brooke : Ohh .
Eric : I m here for you . I always will be .
Brooke : [ Sighs ]
Bill : You re asking a lot .
Katie : Forgiveness is nt easy . I know that . But it s necessary .
Bill : If it s earned .
Katie : She gave me a kidney . I owe my life and my future to her .
Flo : I dont -- I do nt want to be forgiven for that . I did nt even want you all to know that I was the donor . I -- if you all ever decide to forgive me , I want it to be because you truly understand how much I regret what I did .
Donna : But can we believe that ?
Katie : I do .
Wyatt : Why ?
Katie : We ve been talking a lot since the surgery .
Flo : Almost every day .
Katie : It s become clear that flo s remorse is genuine . The core of who she is , that girl that you grew up with , is sickened by what she s done , and she ll probably never forgive herself , which is why we have to do it for her-- donna , bill , wyatt-- you most of all . Right here , right now , you-- you can open your heart up to her again .
Quinn : If you re looking at phone numbers for moving companies , you can forget it .
Brooke : Excuse me ?
Quinn : I heard what you said to my husband in my home .
Brooke : Good . You should know how I feel about your friend going after my husband . She should nt be living here .
Quinn : Shauna is not going anywhere . She needs a place to stay .
Brooke : She could stay with her daughter . She should be taking care of felony flo and not ridge . Having her live here is a direct attack on my marriage .
Quinn : Says the woman who s attacking mine . That s right . I heard everything you said . You better back off , brooke , because I promise , you do nt want to make an enemy out of me . Skin sin # 17 ...
Flo : Wyatt , you do nt have to . None of you have to forgive me . I -- I completely understand why everyone is still angry with me . I m just really happy to have you in my life , aunt katie . And your forgiveness alone has just meant so much to me .
Donna : You have mine , too . I mean , how do I not ? You saved my sister s life . Look at you .
Flo : [ Laughs ]
Donna : I see storm .
Justin : You do nt want to say it . You do nt want to forgive . But she gave you back your family , dollar bill . And we both know you can not function without katie .
Bill : The most important thing to me right now ... is that katie is here and will has his mother . Katie is the smartest person I know . So if she feels that you are genuinely remorseful about your behavior , your lies ... I ll try and believe it .
Wyatt : Dad s right , you know . Katie is the smartest . She s scary smart . All right , she knew to bring us all here together to face the truth about you , that you re bigger than one lie . It does nt define you . You re an extraordinary woman , flo . And we re all lucky to have you in our lives .
Eric : I m aware that the two of you are friendly .
Ridge : What did brooke tell you ?
Eric : That you and shauna have been making out these days , kissing and ... ridge , what are you doing ?
Ridge : I m -- I m trying to save my marriage . I told brooke because I want her to know everything .
Eric : Well , I hope that s the right call . Brooke s really hurting right now .
Brooke : Can you blame me for being upset ? Ridge and I are going through a very difficult time right now , and instead of you being supportive , you re encouraging your friend to go after him .
Quinn : It s a huge estate . Why would I tell my best friend she ca nt stay here because ridge happens to be on it , too ?
Brooke : I see right through you .
Quinn : Oh .
Brooke : Little miss matchmaker . You want me out of this family , do nt you ?
Quinn : I do nt know , brooke . I mean , are you still technically in it ? It always changes from week to week , depending on what forrester man you happen to be married to at the moment , so ...
Brooke : I know that you are threatened by my history with eric .
Quinn : Ohh .
Brooke : I know that . And you know how much he cares about me , and that bothers you .
Quinn : Okay . It bothers me that my husband has so much affection for all of his discarded wives . But am I threatened ? No . Or should I say I m not threatened yet , but I would nt do anything to make me feel threatened , like telling my husband he should leave me . I make eric happy , and I have proven to him that I m a good matriarch for this family .
Brooke : Just because you re married to eric does nt make you the forrester matriarch . If I had my way , you will never be able to call yourself that . You re not threatened by me now , but you will be , because I want you gone . I want you and shauna out of this house and out of this family for good .
Flo : Should nt you be going to that meeting , too ?
Wyatt : There s no meeting . My dad made that up so that we could have some time together .
Flo : Are you serious ?
Wyatt : Yeah . He s kind of funny like that .
Flo : Well , I appreciate it .
Wyatt : Yeah .
Flo : And I appreciate you being here , listening to what katie had to say .
Wyatt : More importantly , hearing what you had to say . I finally heard you this time , flo . I heard your regret and your remorse , and ... Ive -- Ive been a bit lost lately . Um ... you know , ever since the ... truth came out , I was searching for a way to just move on with my life without you in it . But I just-- I just found you again , you know ? The plans that I had with you-- the future , the children , the marriage . Like , you-- you were always the one that I wanted to have a family with .
Flo : I wanted that , too . It s -- it s the future I always wanted with you , and I --I -- and I believed in it . I believed in it even when ... even when it seemed like it was impossible to have because I ve never stopped loving you , wyatt , and I never will .
Wyatt : No . I-- I ve been doing a lot of thinking lately ... and I realized I ve never stopped loving you , either . Look , I missed you . I missed coming home to you and -- and kissing you and hugging you and your beautiful smile .
Flo : God , I had missed you so much .
Ridge : Did she come over to see me ? I should call her .
Eric : Uh , no , no . It was , uh , she wanted to come over and see me . She thinks I can help .
Ridge : Help with what ?
Eric : To get rid of shauna .
Ridge : Oh , boy .
Eric : Yeah . And that s not all . She wants me to get rid of quinn as well .
Brooke : You have proven over and over again that you will do whatever it takes to get whatever you want . You will lie , and you will scheme , and you will manipulate . Oh , yeah . You went dormant for a while . You played the good wife , all sweet and innocent , but here you are , getting shauna to go after ridge . Well , guess what . It s not going to work . Sure , you can trick a forrester into marrying you , but do nt get your trashy friends to do the same thing . Shauna is so beneath ridge , it s laughable .
Shauna : Do you want to say that to my face ?
Brooke : Gladly .
Shauna : Good .
Brooke : You do nt deserve ridge , and you know it . Have a little dignity and stop throwing yourself at a man who does nt want you .
Shauna : That s funny because the way he kisses me says otherwise .
Quinn : Ha !
Brooke : Oh , my god , that s disgusting . And it s disgusting to think that you would prey on somebody going through a very difficult time .
Shauna : A difficult time brought on by you . I ve been there for him . I listened to him when you wouldnT. Helped him see that life does nt always have to be doom and gloom , the way you want it . I mean , what kind of woman would treat her husband this way , lashing out and giving ultimatums ? It s no wonder he was looking for something better .
Quinn : What the hell is wrong with you ?
Brooke : I learned that from the real matriarch of this house . She taught me how to protect my family . She would be really proud of me right now , standing up against the two of you , who do nt belong here . Her picture s going up there , and yours is coming down , and I m gon na make sure that it goes in the garbage where it belongs . I want you out of here , quinn . I want you out of here so bad , and I m gon na tell eric all about your craziness . Aah !
Quinn : Stephanie taught you how to slap ? Bitch , you should have learned that from me . How dare you walk into my home and speak to me and my friend that way ? You are never ever gon na do it again . You have been nothing but poison to this family , and stephanie , who you so admire , she tried to get rid of you for years and years . You think you had trouble with her ? You have no idea . You go up against me , and you are gon na have a battle like you have never seen .
Brooke : Fine . You bring it on . You want a war , quinn ? You ve got one !

Nash : I m looking at you .
Tess : Ok , I ll play .

Nash : Hmm . So tell me about that bad dream of yours .
Tess : Pandas .
Nash : Pandas ?
Tess : Yeah , they re tricky . They totally freaked me out .
Nash : Must have been some big pandas .
Tess : It was a gang of them , actually , and they had knives and they were using sarcasm .
Nash : Oh .
Tess : It was awful .
Nash : I am in trouble , are nt I ?
Tess : That makes two of us , buddy .
Antonio : I am here to find Jessica , end of story .
Layla : End of your story . Forgive me for being disappointed about my audition .
Antonio : That was about a job . Jessica is about my life .
Layla : My career is my life .
Antonio : You do nt have a career .
Layla : And from what I ve seen , you do nt have a Jessica . I ve seen pictures , I ve heard about this goddess among women , but I have nt seen a whole lot of her . Hmm , not in New York , either . Do you have any clue where this love of your life might be , stud ?
Antonio : Bringing you was a mistake .
Layla : I m just keeping it real . And if you want to live in denial , that s your play .
Antonio : Really ? And what exactly am I denying ?
Layla : Oh , I do nt know -- you lay mucho dinero on this skeevy P.I. to track down your girlfriend , who has you chasing your tail in an overpriced New York bistro . I do nt know who s taking you for a bigger ride -- the P.I. or Jessica .
Antonio : Hey , you know , I ll be honest with you . I do nt understand half of what comes out of your mouth , but maybe if you cared about someone half as much as you care about yourself , you d understand . How s that for keeping it real ? Here .
Layla : I am so not waiting in the car .
Antonio : You re driving the car back to Llanview . Goodbye .
John : You still here ?

Bo : Looks a lot different from back here , huh ?
Evangeline : Yeah . Now I see why people hate defense attorneys . From this side of the courtroom , it s hard to understand how anyone could represent the likes of Hayes Barber .
Bo : Yeah . Do you think that he told his lawyer where he s holding Natalie ?
Evangeline : I doubt it . He would be compelled to tell if he knew . God , I hate being the victim .
Bo : You going to be ok when they bring Hayes in ?
Evangeline : Oh , please . Watching that maniac get arraigned is the least I can do for Natalie . How s Viki holding up ?
Bo : Well , her doctor told her to stay away from all of this . I ve got a guard on her .
Evangeline : Ca nt imagine that went over well .
Bo : Uh - uh . I about half expect her to show up anyway . Marcie . It s nice to see you re feeling good again .

Hugh : Yeah , she s stuck with another case . It s just a simple arraignment . Barber can either plead guilty , not guilty , or not guilty by reason of insanity .
Roxy : I do nt want to hear about that plea junk . You got to make him tell me where he left my daughter .
Natalie : Oh !
Layla : No way I m going home .
Antonio : I do nt have time for this . I ll take the train home later .
Layla : Just like that ?
Antonio : Layla , this is important , ok ? Jessica might be in trouble .
Layla : How long are you planning on waiting on your lady fair , Romeo ? What if there is no dragon to slay ?
Antonio : What the hell are you talking about ?
Layla : The woman does nt call , you do nt know where she is . She s got you sniffing all over New York looking for her . Hey , Einstein , has it ever occurred to you that Jessica does nt want to be found ?
Antonio : You know what ? Despite what you think , you do nt know anything about me , and you certainly do nt know anything about my relationship with Jessica .
Layla : Hmm . Oh , I know relationships .
Antonio : Huh ! Yeah , right , you do . You re a kid , ok ? You got your head above the clouds and some big romantic ideas from the movies and -- and plays that you see . That s what you think love is all about .
Layla : Well , I know how this story ends , sweetheart . Boy loves girl , girlfriend freaks and runs to the big city , boy chases girl , girl breaks his heart and dumps his sorry butt .
Nash : All right , so do we dump it and eat the loss or ride it out ? All right , dump it . Hey , we ll make it up on the other end . Oh , come on , I got a charmed life , you know that .
Tess : What do those red arrows mean ?
Nash : Well , the red arrows are my profits going down the tube .
Tess : Wow . So you re losing money and you re still smiling . What gives ?
Nash : Well , that s how the markets work . You win some , you lose a lot . But , hey , you got to be brave to survive the urban jungle , right ?
Tess : I think one of us better get a real job , pronto . And it s a good thing that I m going to nail that job I m interviewing for today .
Nash : The fashion designer thing ?
Tess : I faxed them my résumé , greased them over the phone . They love me , I know it .
Nash : Well , it s New York city . You never can tell .
Tess : I can tell .
Nash : Hmm .
Tess : It s just this entry - level position . But give me a week , and I ll be running the joint .
Nash : You are so overqualified for this .
Tess : What , you do nt think that I can climb the corporate ladder ?
Nash : Oh , I think you got a jet pack and you re going to burn that ladder on your way up .
Tess : Sounds like you really believe in me or something .
Nash : I am counting on you to keep me in the style to which I have become accustomed .
John : You brought coffee . Now get out .
Michael : You do nt see this as being just a little messed up ? Hey , Bo practically has to force you to take a day off , and the best you can come up with is going out and getting plowed ?
John : How do you know about that ?
Michael : I checked up on my big brother . Forgive me .
John : You know what , Mike ? I do nt need you tracking me .
Michael : Johnny , I do nt know what s going on with you and Natalie . Obviously , you do nt know what s going on with you and Natalie .
John : Obviously .
Michael : Everybody can see that her not being back -- it s messing with you . Now , I can see , because I know you well enough . I can see that you re drowning , Johnny . And all that crap with Caitlin , Evangeline , dad , or whatever else it is you ve decided you re responsible for in the world .
John : Hey .
Michael : Let me tell you something , John . Something s going to break , and I m afraid it s going to be you .
John : Leave it alone , Mike .
Michael : Well , maybe you like going out and beating the crap out of yourself night after night .
John : I said drop it , ok ?
Michael : Let me tell you something . Evangeline dumping you -- best thing she ever did . Let s face it , Johnny , you re damaged goods . Sometimes I think you like it that way .
John : Yeah ? You know what I d like ? I d like for you to get out . And I d like you not to come back till Christmas .
Roxy : You make him tell --
Rex : Roxy --
Roxy : You make -- hey ! Stop it ! Stop it ! You do nt get it ! This sicko goes to the judge , tells the guy he s nuts , he gets to walk after everything that he did ? Look , we do nt even know if Natalie is alive .
Rex : Roxy , you ve got to chill . The judge is going to be here .
Roxy : I ca nt because she s all alone , and you know how freaked out she gets when it s dark . Ca nt let him get away with it .
Bo : Roxy , look , we re doing all we can to make Hayes tell us where Natalie is .
Roxy : Well , just beat it out of him . Get a phone book and hit him with it , because it does nt leave any marks .
Rex : That s not a bad idea . Ok , then again , maybe it s a good thing that we re all here and calm .
Roxy : What , calm ? I m not calm . Why ? Why is it a good idea ?
Bo : Look , this clown likes an audience . He has nt had one in his cell .
Rex : Maybe this guyll come out here and make himself feel big by telling us how he s smarter than us , how he s been keeping Natalie alive someplace and we could nt find her .
Roxy : Commish , just be honest with me . Do you think she s still kicking ?
Bo : I do nt see Natalie checking out without a fight . Come on . Come on , let s get a seat .
Roxy : Ok .
Roxy : You son of a bitch . You son of a bitch , you tell me where my baby is ! You tell me what happened to her ! You tell me !
Roxy : Tell me where she is , you psychotic bum !
Rex : Roxy , stop , he s not going to give us anything . Huh ?
Man : Hugh , you are lucky the judge did nt see that .
Hugh : Are you planning your appeal ? Good . Because we got your client cold . I hope he likes orange . He ll be wearing it a long time . Listen , I know you re upset about your daughter --
Roxy : You re just a lawyer . You do nt know squat .
Bo : Roxy , look , if you keep this up , you could end up helping Hayes case . We ll be no closer to finding Natalie .
Rex : Believe me , I d take this guy out myself if I could .
Bo : Yeah , and he knows that . This is the best way to deal with Hayes .
Rex : Right . This is the best way to handle it .
Roxy : You know , you disappoint me . I raised you to be a pit bull .
Rex : Well , the commish has been keeping me on a short leash . He actually knows what he s talking about . Go figure .
Marcie : Look at him . He s just sitting there . He looks so smug .
Evangeline : Yeah . I ll bet he s setting up his insanity plea .
Marcie : Did you just see that ?
Evangeline : Yeah , I did , but the judge wo nt . Look , Hayes only chance is to convince the judge that he s incompetent to stand trial .
Marcie : I ca nt believe any of this , Evangeline . I ca nt believe that I went to high school with him , that he -- that he killed all those people . I mean , how could I have worked with him all that time and never seen any of it ?
Evangeline : Well , look at all he did to cover his tracks . He had major reconstructive surgery . I mean , he took on a whole other life .
Marcie : I guess you re right . You looking for John ?
Evangeline : Yeah .
Marcie : I thought he d be here , too .
Evangeline : I ll be back .
Marcie : Ok .
Michael : You re out of milk .
John : You know , that box was there when I moved in .
Michael : How come you re not at the arraignment ? I mean , Barber s being arraigned today . You re acting like it s any other Monday .
John : They do nt need me there until the trial starts .
Michael : What are you hiding from , John ? I know this Hayes guy -- I know he does nt have you spooked . But he does have Natalie . He might let something slip , something that only you -- only you could pick up on , John .
John : Barber s lawyer is looking for any excuse he can get to declare a mistrial .
Michael : So what are you going to do , John ? You going to jump back in that bottle ?
John : No . Mike , I m going into the station and I m going to reassign the task force to stop pursuing barber and start looking for Natalie . That s what I m going to do .
Michael : I just wish you d talk to me , John .
John : What the hell do you want me to say ?
Michael : Tell me why you ca nt face Barber .
John : I m afraid I m going to kill him .
Antonio : You never met Jessica .
Layla : I do nt have to meet her . I can see how she s treating you .
Antonio : Who the hell do you think you are ?
Layla : Hmm . Getting defensive ? I must have hit a sore spot .
Antonio : You re about to hit the road -- without my car .
Layla : Hmm -- so much for being the best agent I ever had .
Antonio : You know what ? Maybe you should have slept with that producer .
Layla : That hurts .
Antonio : I m sorry . That was a cheap shot .
Layla : No . I started it . You really think I m a diva ?
Antonio : Would that be a good thing or a bad thing ?
Layla : I certainly have the makings of a diva , but the calling - me - a - kid thing has gotten old . And it pushes my buttons .
Antonio : Hmm . And you re way above that .
Layla : I ve pushed a few . But I probably should be easy on Jessica . Like you said , I ve never met her . And I m sure she s lovely .
Antonio : You ca nt help yourself , can you ?
Layla : I m trying . Do nt I get points for that ? What do you say ? Truce ?
Man : Hello . I m told you re looking for the manager .
Antonio : Yes .
Man : I m sorry , she s unavailable at the moment . Is there something I can help you with ?
Antonio : Hopefully . I m looking for -- for this woman .
Tess : Yes , hi . I faxed over a résumé for the executive assistant job . But once you meet me , you re going to stop looking . Huh . Well , you sound like lots of fun , too . My name ? It s Tess . Oh -- um -- yeah , the one on the application -- that s my legal name . It s -- Jessica . Jessica Buchanan . Yeah , but I go by Tess . Ok ? Perfect . Well , I ll see you then . Oh , my God , there is a hot man dripping in my living room .
Nash : Huh .
Tess : Guess who has a job interview today .
Nash : I do nt know . Why do nt you tell me -- Jessica ?
Tess : You re lucky you look so yummy in this towel . Otherwise , I d have to spank you for listening in .
Nash : Ok . So I m just going to pretend that you did nt just apply for a job using your dead twin sister s name ?
Tess : I thought that you liked it that I was mysterious .
Nash : Mysterious , yeah -- creepy , not so .
Tess : What do you want from me ?
Nash : After last night , I want everything . Ok , look . I do nt know what it s like to have a twin sister , never mind what it s like to lose one .
Tess : I m over it , ok ?
Nash : Is it something you can just get over ? Because -- ok . I m asking too many questions again , huh ? So I ll stop . I wo nt be possessive , I wo nt ask about your past . I ll just take what you give me and hope that you re everything I need you to be , and I ll pray that I do nt wake up some day and realize that you ve been nothing but a dream , not real at all .
Tess : Pretty scary , right ?
Nash : Yeah . But I ll call you Tess or Jess or whatever you want me to call you and I ll knock out guys in restaurants because they hassle you . I wo nt ask about your money or how you got it or how , where , when , or why you come and go as you want . What ?
Tess : You re messing with my head here , this whole reverse psychology B.S. that you re pulling to get me to tell you things that I do nt want to ?
Nash : I am not .
Tess : You think that just because I used Jessica s name and social security number , I m trying to cover up something , right ?
Nash : Actually , I did nt know about the social security number .
Tess : There you go . You see ? You already have stuff that you can use against me .
Nash : And why would I do that ?
Tess : Because that s what everybody has done my whole entire life . They ve locked me in a box , used personal information against me to make me disappear . Do you have any idea what I have gone through just even to be free , to take a breath , to exist ?
Nash : Exist -- I have no idea what you re talking about .
Tess : And I do nt feel like I have to explain it . Why ca nt you just love me for who I am ?
Antonio : She was seen last on July 29 here at this restaurant .
Man : She looks familiar .
Antonio : There was an altercation that evening . This gentleman , Todd Manning , was arrested for disorderly conduct .
Man : Him , I remember , yeah . I was working that night .
Antonio : Ok , good . So , did you see her ?
Man : Yes , yes , I think so , but I think she left before the fight started .
Antonio : Ok , did she have any contact with Manning ?
Man : I do nt usually keep tabs on all our patrons . I let the cops handle it .
Antonio : Ok . I ll get in touch with the arresting officer . Where s the closest precinct ?
Man : On 34th street . Is that all ?
Antonio : Yeah . Thanks .
Layla : I m impressed . That was very NYPD Blue , L.A. Confidential .
Layla : I could be a cop .
Antonio : Yeah . Oh , this is huge . What have you got ? Oh , this is great . Yeah , just call me back if you dig up anything else . All right . Ok , the P.I. got a hit on Jessica s social security number -- some background check on an application for some fashion designer here in town .
Layla : Well , I thought you said she was a reporter .
Antonio : I got the address . Give me the keys .
Layla : Forget it . You re too pumped up to drive , and I want to be a smash on Broadway , but not like that . Fine , but I m coming with you . I love this whole Cops stuff . I ll take shotgun .
Michael : Did something happen with you and barber you re not telling me about ?
John : Yes , something happened . I nearly choked him to death . No one saw .
Michael : Oh , well , that s -- that s just great , John ! Yeah , then it s ok , right ? What , are you nuts ? Please , tell me that this is not something that this jerk can use to get off the hook with .
John : Worst case , it might bring some heat from I.A.
Michael : Well , I guess I -- I understand why you did it .
John : He s got Natalie , Mike .
Michael : Yeah , and his corpse is going to tell us how to get her back , where she is .
John : That s the only thing that stopped me .
Michael : This is not good , John .
John : Oh , there s more .
Michael : Ok . Um -- I m going to sit down for this . Ok , hit me .
John : Well , at the height of my little drinking binge , I decided -- I decided , well , I needed to talk to Evangeline .
Michael : Man . When you decide to torch your life , you do not mess around . I m telling you , Johnny , I would ve paid money to see that .
John : You realize I have a gun , right ?
Michael : You realize that s pathetic , right , John ? Drunken booty call on your ex ?
John : I did nt call .
Michael : You did nt ? John , you went over there ? Wow . Huh . How d that work out for you ? Yeah -- obviously not the way you planned , seeing as I found you passed out here .
John : We talked .
Michael : You do nt remember any of it , do you ?
John : Not much . Some . Enough .
Michael : Oh . You did nt beg . Please , Johnny , tell me you did nt beg because if you did , I m telling you , I got to find a new hero .
John : I realized she deserves better than me , mike .
Michael : John ? I m going to court with Marcie today . You know Hayes Barber is nt the guy who s going to take you out .
John : I m doing that all by myself , right ?
Michael : So stop it right now , John . Come with me . Come to court . Face Barber . I got your back , brother . Big time .
Bo : He s going to go with insanity , right ?
Hugh : Yeah , there s not much else .
Bailiff : All rise . This is case number 45DSW321 , the commonwealth of Pennsylvania vs. Hayes Barber , the honorable judge Howard Lee presiding .
Judge : Be seated .
Hugh : Your honor , if it pleases the court , the prosecution would like to make a rather unorthodox request . We believe a woman s life depends on it .
Natalie : Damn it , no ! Why has nt anyone found me ?
Tess : Ok , let s not freak out here . I did nt mean love like how you mean it when you say it to somebody when you --
Nash : It s ok . I know exactly what you meant . You ve never been in a relationship before , have you ?
Tess : Well , I just do nt understand why people get so hung up on words like love and relationship . I do nt --
Nash : I ll take that as a no . You are so beautiful .
Tess : Ah , you re just saying that because you think you re going to get some .
Nash : I do nt think I ll ever figure you out .
Tess : Are you complaining ?
Nash : Uh - uh - uh . I m giving in . You do nt know me . It s hard for me to do .
Tess : Hmm . You have some secrets ? Anything you want to tell me ?
Nash : Uh - uh . I m an open book .
Tess : And I m not . Just ca nt it be enough that I m here ? Do you have to know every little dirty corner of my life to believe in me , to be with me ? Do I have to --
Nash : I just want you to be who you are .
Judge : You may proceed , Mr. Hughes .
Hugh : Your honor , the state has reason to believe that the accused is still holding yet another victim and he s the only person who can tell us if she s dead or alive .
Lawyer : Your honor , the presumption of guilt here is astounding . My client --
Judge : Is entitled to a fair trial , which he will receive . Take your seats , gentlemen .
Bo : It was worth a shot .
Judge : Hayes Barber . You stand charged with the kidnapping and attempted murder of Rex Balsom and Marcie Walsh . How do you plead ?
Lawyer : My client pleads not guilty by reason of insanity , your honor .
Rex : Are you kidding me ?
Judge : Order ! Mr. Hughes ?
Hugh : Your honor , the state would like the court to know that these are only the first in a series of charges that will be leveled against Mr. Barber . They ll include multiple homicides , three counts of attempted murder , conspiracy , unlawful imprisonment , and kidnapping . And these charges are being presented to a grand jury later today .
Judge : Duly noted . Mr. Barber , you will be remanded to corrections for a psychiatric assessment to determine if you are fit to stand trial . See you in court , gentlemen .
Roxy : Your honor ?
Rex : Roxy --
Roxy : Stop it . Stop . I need to say something .
Judge : Who are you ?
Roxy : I m just a mother of the missing girl , Natalie Vega .
Lawyer : Your honor --
Judge : Perhaps your client needs to hear this . Please , go on .
Roxy : Thank you , your honor . My little girl is missing . And this guy is the only one who knows where she is . And he s already told the cops that he has her and that he s tortured her . Now , nobody has any idea whether she s alive . Either way , what I need is I need to bring my daughter back .
Natalie : I m going to die here .
Layla : This is 600 west 66th street , but is this the right office ?
Antonio : This is the address the P.I. gave me . Hopefully , with any luck at all , Jessica will be here any minute .
Tess : I m not going to make my interview , am I ?
Nash : Where is it ?
Tess : 600 west 66th street .
Nash : Well , you better get going .
Tess : Yeah , yeah , you re probably right , but -- oops . Look -- look what I did . I m such a bad girl .
Roxy : Half the people in this courtroom are here because they re nuts about Natty . And that s the kind of kid she is . And she s so special , she s t two moms . And I m proud to say that I m one of them . They got rules and laws to protect this guy s rights -- well , what about Natalie s rights ? And the cops ca nt seem to get him to spill any information , but maybe you can . Because either way , I got to find out what happened to my baby .
Judge : Is your client willing to address the issue of the missing woman , counselor ?
Lawyer : Your honor , the mental health of my client is questionable at best . I m not even sure he understands what I m asking him .
Judge : I m sorry for your loss , but I m afraid that there s nothing more this court can do .
Rex : Are you -- this is where my taxes go . You re pathetic --
Judge : I ll add my prayers to those hoping for your daughter s safe return . This court is adjourned for a 10-day recess to complete the psychiatric exam of the defendant .
Hayes : You ll never find her .
Marcie : Hugh , do you think he s going to pass the psych test ?
Hugh : Depends on how good an actor he is .
Marcie : Well , he managed to fool a lot of people for a really long time .
Hugh : Hey , you look like you could use a break from all this . Let me buy you some coffee , all right ?
Marcie : Ok .
Roxy : Boy , I really screwed up , did nt I ?
Bo : Oh , hey . You did just fine , Roxy .
Marcie : What are you doing here ?
Michael : Oh , I talked to your brother Ron . He said you d be here . Marcie , I -- I thought that we were going to do this together .
Marcie : Well , I kind of needed to do this on my own .
Hugh : You ready to go , Marcie ?
Marcie : Yeah . I ll see you around ?
Michael : Yeah . See you around .
John : Hey , you --
Bo : You look like I feel .
John : Yeah , well , see what happens when you tell me to take the night off ?
Bo : Yeah , did you get any perspective on this case ?
John : I ll tell you when my ears stop ringing .
Bo : Hmm . You know , you missed Evangeline . She was wondering about you . I think she s looking for you right now .
John : Probably figures I m in a gutter somewhere .
Bo : Did you two go out last night ?
John : No , she was at home .
Bo : You drunk - dialed her ?
John : Actually , I stopped by .
Bo : Ooh . Bet that sobered you up in a hurry .
John : Not as much as all this did today .
Roxy : Hey , Johnny . Listen , you re Natty s last hope . Promise me you ll bring her home , please ?
Bo : We ll find her , Roxy .
Rex : Come on , Rox . Let s go give Viki an update .
Roxy : Yeah , it s a good thing the doctor did nt let her go out because it could ve killed her , because I know it s killing me .
Bo : I ll see you back at the office .
John : Ok .
Evangeline : You made it .
John : Yeah , I made it .
Evangeline : Just being in the same room with that Barber was intense . It s almost too much to imagine that Natalie is still out there somewhere suffering through this , if she s even --
John : We re going to find her .
Evangeline : You have to do whatever it takes to bring her back , John . Find her no matter what you have to do , and then you nail this son of a bitch .
Natalie : John , where are you ? You ve got to find me . Please . Help me .
Blair : What are you going to do if Asa has nt taken care of Margaret ?
Margaret : As far as Blair is concerned , all you have to do is kill her .
Antonio : I m supposed to meet a friend of mine here , Jessica Buchanan .
Tess : Bye - bye , Jessica . Today is the first day of the rest of my life .

### Dialogue:
Taylor : Brooke , how is she ?
Brooke : I do nt know . I just got here .
Taylor : Well , I was talking to her nurse a little bit earlier , and she said she s been resting comfortably all day .
Brooke : No complications ?
Taylor : No , none yet . I hope there are nt any .
Brooke : ( Sighs ) She s going to need every ounce of strength that she has .
Taylor : Brooke , you know , Stephanie s condition is still very tenuous . And if something should happen--
Brooke : It wo nt .
Taylor : All I m trying to say is if things do make a turn for the worse , and they still could , you should know that you ve done everything-- everything humanly possible for her .
Brooke : So have you , Taylor .
Taylor : No , no . You have been there for her before I even knew she was sick . And I know that that was nt easy for you .
Brooke : Well , it was kind of strange . I mean , one minute , we re in my living room having a conversation like so many conversations we ve had before , and an hour later , we re at the hospital , and she s being diagnosed with lung cancer . Suddenly , everything changed . All the differences we had or horrible history , none of that mattered anymore , and all I could think about was how was I going to keep her alive ?
Taylor : Well ... ( chuckles ) if it were nt for you , she might not be alive right now if you had nt hounded her to go get treatment .
Brooke : You did a good bit of that yourself . How long do you really think she has , Taylor ?
Taylor : You know the prognosis .
Brooke : I d like to believe that it was better than that .
Taylor : Well , if determination to survive has anything to do with it , she ... maybe she will .
Brooke : ( Chuckles )
Stephanie : Hello ?
Steffy : Grandma , hey . It s me .
Stephanie : Oh , honey , hi . How are you ?
Steffy : Grandma , I ve been trying to reach you . Grandma , I - I know about the cancer . Look , I - I ca nt be in Paris while you re sick . I m coming home , all right ?
Stephanie : No . You stay right there .
Steffy : No , no . I - I want to be by your side .
Stephanie : No , honey . No . You get on with your life . Look , I - I m gon na beat this , and when I do , I m gon na come over there and see you because you and Paris are my favorite things and places .
Steffy : Grandma , you ve never broken a promise , so do nt start now .

Stephanie : Bye .
Steffy : Bye .
Hope : Hey .

Oliver : That s me . All right .
Amber : ( Chuckles )
Oliver : The medicine man .
Amber : You are so great for what s ailing me .
Oliver : ( Chuckles )
Aggie : Mm , I still ca nt believe Amber just threw herself at you like that .
Nick : Well , she did nt actually throw herself at me .
Aggie : Oh , come on . She practically laid herself bare over the train tracks . She does nt impress me as the kind of woman who will stop until she gets exactly what she wants , Nick .
Nick : Well , it wo nt be me .
Aggie : Well , whoever it is , I feel sorry for the guy . He s gon na have his hands full .
Amber : Expecting a call ?
Oliver : Hoping for one . But you know how that goes .
Amber : I sure do .
Oliver : Do you ?
Amber : ( Scoffs ) Yes . Never very far from your phone .
Oliver : ( Chuckles )
Amber : ( Chuckles ) You know , sometimes , I would-- I would sleep with it next to my ear so I would nt miss the call . And sometimes I would just stare at it , willing it to ring , but it seldom did . Bet you do nt have that problem .
Oliver : ( Scoffs ) Why would you say that ?
Amber : Well , let s see . Um , you re handsome . You re sexy . You re sweet . Where else is Hope Logan gon na find a guy like you ?
Hope : I ve been really worried about you .
Stephanie : That s not what I want to hear .
Taylor : Wow , what have we got going on in here ? A party ?
Hope : Oh , hi .
Stephanie : Yes , another party .
Taylor : Oh , you look really good .
Stephanie : Oh , yeah ?
Taylor : Mm - hmm .
Stephanie : ( Chuckles ) I , uh , I heard from Steffy . She called .
Taylor : I know . She wants to come home .
Stephanie : Yeah , I know . I told her no . No . I said I m fine . ( Gasping ) ( grunts ) ( breathing rapidly ) I m okay . I m okay . I m okay . ( Chuckles ) Yeah , I - I told her I have a lot of important work I have to do .
Hope : Important work ?
Stephanie : Mm - hmm . I met this really nice girl , and she made me realize that there are a lot of people that I could help . And -- and that s exactly what I m gon na do .
Aggie : Thank you for standing up to Amber .
Nick : It was never even close .
Amber : You fell real hard , did nt you ? You do nt want to talk about it ?
Oliver : Nope .
Amber : I heard about the whole thing with , uh , Hope s mom . Graduation party . Well , I guess the whole world knows by now .
Oliver : Yep . Messed that up real good .
Amber : You know , it was nt even your fault . But I bet she still blames you for it , right ?
Oliver : Oh , not really . She just ca nt get over what happened . That s why I keep my phone nearby . She ll call one of these days .
Stephanie : Dayzee , come in .
Dayzee : I - I do nt want to interrupt .
Stephanie : Do nt be silly .
Dayzee : Well , I just went in to check on the baby , and I thought I d stop by .
Stephanie : How is she ?
Dayzee : Well , like you said , she s good , thanks to you .
Stephanie : See ? ( Chuckles ) Uh , Liam , uh ... ( coughs )
Hope : You-- you must be Dayzee . Hi .
Stephanie : ( Grunts )
Hope : It s nice to meet you .
Dayzee : Hi .
Liam : Hi . Nice to meet you .
Dayzee : Same here . You know what ? I m just gon na let you guys be .
Stephanie : No , no , no , no . You stay . You stay . Ho -- Hopey ? Uh , this is the girl I was telling you about , the one that made me decide I should live .
Dayzee : It seems like you ve got a lot of reasons to want to live .
Stephanie : I do . But you made me appreciate life all over again . Thank you .
Nick : Wow . ( Sighs ) What you do to me .
Aggie : ( Chuckles ) It s so easy to do for you . ( Sighs ) I wish my brother could feel like this .
Nick : What ?
Aggie : My brother Oliver . I wish he could feel this . Love , you know ? This ...
Nick : Oh .
Aggie : Connection .
Nick : Right .
Aggie : He has nt given up on Hope .
Nick : Uh - huh .
Aggie : You know , I do nt think he ever will . I do nt know . One thing is for sure .
Nick : Hmm ?
Aggie : It s gon na take a really powerful force to pry his heart away from Hope .
Amber : You know , um , she ll call when you least expect it .
Oliver : That s usually when it happens , is nt it ?
Amber : Yeah , it does . I mean , like today , I - I take this giant spill , and suddenly Zac Efron s icing my ankle .
Oliver : ( Laughs )
Amber : I mean , who would have expected that ?
Oliver : ( Sighs )
Amber : A laugh . Hmm .
Oliver : Is that what that was ? I have not done that in a while .
Amber : ( Laughs ) It s a great laugh . I mean , you use that , right , as part of your arsenal ?
Oliver : My arsenal ? I like that .
Amber : Yeah , I mean , you have this laugh and -- and your eyes , and it s just ... wow , I mean , you re just this perfect package .
Oliver : Why do nt you tell Hope that ?
Amber : You know , if I have to tell Hope that , then she really is blind . I mean , I ve heard of blind faith , but blind hope ?
Oliver : ( Chuckles )
Amber : ( Chuckles )
Oliver : You re funny .
Amber : ( Laughs ) Oh , wow , funny . Funny . I ve been waiting my entire life to hear that . Funny .
Oliver : No , no , you re not just funny . You re --
Amber : Oh , what ? Spill . I m -- I m demented . I m too fresh . I m --
Oliver : You re full of energy .
Amber : ( Sighs )
Oliver : You re alive .
Amber : Not sexy ?
Oliver : That goes without saying .
Amber : Why do nt I get us some more coffee while you just keep talking ?
Stephanie : Dayzee , I-- honey , I do nt want to embarrass you in any way . I d just like , well , you know , for the kids to get to know you a little better , and ... would you tell them your story ? Do you mind ?
Brooke : It s okay , Dayzee .
Dayzee : Um , well , I , um , grew up on the streets , in and out of foster homes . I never had a dad . My mom was a drug addict . It was pretty bad . She died .
Taylor : Oh , I m so sorry .
Dayzee : I was just a kid . I mean , it was a long time ago .
Liam : My God . I ca nt even imagine .
Dayzee : Do nt feel bad for me . I mean , I was lucky . ( Sighs ) People see us , and they assume that if you re homeless , it s because you re lazy or a drug addict or not all there . After my mom died , I knew that that was not the path I wanted . The foster homes did nt help because they were so unorganized . I d just run away and end up back on the streets . It was the shelters and even people in my situation who helped me . They showed me where to get food and where to sleep , makeshift schools , and ... ( sighs ) I m so grateful . Sometimes , yes , I am scared , afraid of how I m gon na take care of myself , afraid for that baby , but ... ( sighs ) there s good , too .
Hope : Do you ever feel trapped there ?
Dayzee : No . I mean , I work at the homeless shelter because I want to . I have a G.E.D. I mean , I suppose I could get a job somewhere else , but ... ( sighs ) when I just think of all the people who lended me a hand when I needed it ... ( sighs ) I just-- I want to give back . And that s what Stephanie wants , too , which is great .
Stephanie : That s what we re gon na do . Right ?
Brooke : Right .
Stephanie : That s what we re gon na do .
Brooke : You are so courageous .
Dayzee : I just know that when you see somebody who needs help and you can , you ve got ta do it . ( Sighs ) I mean , getting people involved , that s the greatest need .
Stephanie : That s what I m gon na do as soon as I m better .
Dayzee : ( Sighs ) There s just so much . I mean , thousands of people know what it feels like to be homeless . And they just do nt know where to turn . I mean , they want to get back up . They just need a hand .
Stephanie : If I told you long ago in a galaxy far away I was homeless , too , you would nt believe me , would you ?
Dayzee : Mnh - mnh .
Stephanie : That s a conversation we ll have one day . I mean , this is just one of life s whimsies , you know ? A scarf falls off on a roller coaster ride , a girl finds it , I find her in downtown L.A. She s with a baby . It reminds me , brings me memories of things that I know I ve deliberately put aside . And I - I mean , it s all so simple . People just want to get along . They want a job . They want some dignity . They want a roof over their head , food for their families , and that s -- that s what I got ta do . I ve got ta help em . And I m determined to , you know , over the months , the years , whatever that I have , I m just determined I m gon na make a difference in people s lives . And it s because of you . I ve been given this kind of , I do nt know , reawakening . And I thank you for it . I m very grateful , Dayzee . Thanks . ( Sighs )
Nick : ( Sighs ) I m sure Oliverll find his way .
Aggie : I just want him to be happy , you know ?
Nick : Mm .
Aggie : I m very protective of him . We ve always had each other s backs since we were kids . I want him to find the right girl . I want you to find the right girl , too . And Amber is definitely not the right girl for you .
Nick : Please , just quit worrying about Amber .
Aggie : Well , it s hard not to worry about somebody that you do nt trust . I just want to keep her away from everyone I love .
Nick : I m sure you will .
Amber : So tell me I m right . Hope will be yours when you want her because you deserve her .
Oliver : Are you this ... ( chuckles ) supportive with everyone ?
Amber : Only when I m around someone who does nt realize how special he is .
Oliver : If I m so special , why did she choose Liam instead of me ?
Amber : Because she s young , Oliver .
Oliver : ( Sighs )
Amber : I mean , what happened with Brooke at the graduation party ? I mean , personally , I think Hope overreacted a little bit . She s , like , 18 . I mean , what do you expect ? And maybe she ll get over it ...
Oliver : ( Sighs )
Amber : When she s a little older . You want to wait that long ?
Oliver : As long as it takes .
Amber : Good . In the meantime , have some fun .
Oliver : Meaning ...
Amber : Meaning you are a total hottie , Oliver . Get out there . Just let loose a little bit . I mean , I m sure that s what Hope s doing .
Oliver : ( Chuckles ) You re right . I m getting all this romantic advice from a very pretty girl .
Amber : You think I m pretty ?
Oliver : Come on , Amber , you know you are .
Amber : ( Laughs ) Thank you . It always feels good to hear that .
Oliver : Well , you re hearing it . You are a very cool girl .

### Dialogue:
Jonathan : You took up with a guy who s made it very clear he s my enemy . That means you are , too .
Lizzie : You ca nt take my daughter from me , Jonathan .
Jonathan : I already have .
Bill : Would you have slept with him ?
Lizzie : Yeah . I m trying to get my daughter back . I m going to do whatever I have to .
Alan : I said I did nt want to be disturbed ! Beth ? I did nt hear you come in . Hello , sweetheart . My goodness , let me put this cigar out . I do nt want anything to harm my baby girl . No , sir . Oh , Beth , did you see that ? She smiled at me .
Beth : She s sleeping , Alan . That s gas .
Alan : Well , she still knows that I m here .
Beth : Okay .
Alan : I did nt uh ... I did nt know that you two were coming over to see me .
Beth : Well , we just decided to swing by . I want her to know her daddy , and you have a right to see her .
Alan : Yes , I do . I m glad you understand that , Beth . But what about Rick ? How is he dealing with all of the changes of names and the visitation and stuff ?
Beth : Alan , I would love to tell him , but I ca nt find him anywhere .
Rick : What do you want to talk about ? Sports ? Come on , you re a prison guard . You ve got to be into sports . I was quite the basketball player . What are you into , Jim ? Are you into bowling , basketball , baseball ? Ice fishing ? Ice fishing , that s it . You strike me as a guy who likes to be alone a lot . Are you listening to me ? ! Hello !
Jim : Do you want something ?
Rick : Yeah . Could you please-- just for a second . I ve been trying to have a friendly conversation with you for 48 minutes . You have nt heard a word I ve said here . I just want a little help here .
Jim : You have to go before the judge first .
Rick : I did nt break any laws , John!- Jim , whatever your name is .
Jim : It s Jim .
Rick : You know Alan Spaulding . He s a powerful man , and he had me thrown behind these jail cells for no reason . I m an innocent man . And the reason he did this is because he wants to be with my wife .
Jim : You know , your wife probably had you thrown in here because she wants some peace and quiet .
Josh : Hey , hey , you have to take it easy on the beer . It is just you and me and Cassie and Jeffrey and Stephen and these lovely people . And we do nt want them thinking we re a bunch of alcoholics .
Reva : Well , like I said it s a celebration , right ? Praise God with singing and dancing and all that .
Josh : You not going to be dancing on tables ?
Reva : We ll have to wait and see where the spirit leads me .
Josh : Okay , now I know we re in trouble .
Reva : You know , I ca nt seem to reach Jeffrey . I think I m going to run over there and see what is holding him . Do nt start the party without me .
Josh : Certainly not the table dancing part .
Reva : We all have our calling .
Dinah : Push it . Come on . Testosterone . What are you working out here ?
Bill : It s called my pectoral region .
Dinah : No , bonehead I am asking what kind of anger are you working out here . If it is about some deal you lost , some arrogant type A who swooped in and stole an account from under you , trying to make his first billion before 35 , I want you to know I m here to help . Because you did once hire me . And even though my muscles are nt as big as yours , my brain is coming back as sharp as ever .
Bill : I do nt want you to make the deal .
Dinah : I want to help you .
Bill : You want to help me ? Tell Lizzie to keep her clothes on .
Dinah : Why ?
Bill : Because she and I made a deal that she was going to sit tight while I deal with Jonathan .
Dinah : So you had a plan . What s wrong with that ?
Bill : Yes , I had a plan . I had a very good plan . But then Lizzie decided she was going to go with her own plan , it was to go and seduce Jonathan to get Sarah back .
Dinah : Bill , she is fighting for her baby . I understand that . Sometimes we have to use what the good Lord gave us .
Lizzie : Do you see those swans . Are nt they beautiful ? They are beautiful . What is that sound ? Just because you mate for life does nt ... hello ? I m dialing 9 - 1 ... not too much for that .
Bartender : And something for your little friend .
Lizzie : It s for my daughter . She does nt live with me . But her dad and I used to be married . We were married so we could protect Sarah-- that s my baby-- from my granddad , and we did . But Tammy got killed instead of Jonathan .
Bartender : Who is Jonathan ?
Lizzie : That s the husband . He took off with Sarah , but I thought they were dead . I spent an entire year crying . And now , poof , Jonathan is back in town and Sarah is alive , and I still do nt get to be with her . But , hey , you re a bartender . I m sure you hear stories like this all of the time , right ?
Bartender : Two olives ?
Jonathan : Talk . Tell me that she is laundering money or painting toys with lead paint or something .
Cyrus : Actually , there s not much .
Jonathan : Find something . It s there . Find it ! That s what I m paying you to do . That s some big bear . Hey , I m papa bear , and it s my job to protect little bear .
Jeffrey : I do nt understand why I was nt notified . That s all right , I ll call Mel Boudreau . I need someone from Judge Anderson s office to call me right away . If they re not there , you re going to have to track them down , are nt you ? Thank you !
Reva : That did nt sound good .
Jeffrey : It s not .
Reva : Can it wait until after the party .
Jeffrey : When we were at the lighthouse , I saw Cassie with Will .
Reva : With Will ? Is nt he supposed to be locked up ?
Jeffrey : She said he has some sort of approved privilege .
Reva : Did he ?
Jeffrey : I do nt know . There was a hearing and I was notified . And all of the charges against Will have been dropped . He s free .
Reva : We re definitely going to need more beer at that party .
Stephen : Congratulations .
Josh : Cheers , thank you .
Stephen : I was hoping Cassie was going to be here . I know this might be difficult , for her but ...
Josh : Well , actually , no , she s fine with it . I mean , she seems happy . In fact I spoke with her a little while ago and she d be here . And there she is . And she looks happy . Honey , you look happy .
Cassie : I am . Very happy . We have a lot to celebrate .
Josh : Yes we do .
Stephen : Well I m glad it you think about it that way . I know it s difficult , but it s time to put those things behind us and start with a clean slate .
Cassie : I completely agree . In fact , I brought a surprise .
Will : I m back . Everybody feels low everybody feels high everybody s feet are on the ground and heads in the sky only love can save the world only love can save the world only love can save the world only love can save the world only love .
Will : I m so glad I get to come home . Thanks for having a party .
Josh : Will , this party is not-- never mind . Never mind . So , how did he get here ?
Cassie : Well , there was a hearing , and all of the charges against him were dropped . The judge agreed with me that Will is better off at home with the family , where we can love him . Honey , why do nt you go see if there is something you want to eat ?
Will : Okay .
Cassie : Did you call R.J. ? He should be here , too .
Josh : Cassie , you decided this without me ?
Cassie : Well , there was nt much time . All of a sudden , there I was testifying on Will s behalf .
Josh : You did nt think I needed to know this ?
Cassie : I thought you were with Stephen trying to get your job back .
Josh : Stephen would have understood .
Cassie : We both know the hearing went well without you . You got your job back . I got Will back . It s all good . ( Cell phone rings )
Jeffrey : Hey , it s Jeffrey . I have some news .
Josh : I know , he is out . He is here with Cassie . I do nt understand how this happened .
Jeffrey : I ll be there in a minute . We better get over there before the kid starts spitting up pea soup .
Doris : Jim , do me a favor and go see if Chief Cooper left some of those great doughnuts . My office told me someone was making noise about officers not following official policies , something about no phone calls .
Rick : That s right . And as the honorable mayor you are , you came to right a wrong .
Doris : I am very hands - on .
Rick : I ll cut to the chase . Alan Spaulding is manipulating the justice system ...
Doris : You re lucky he did nt drop - kick you into the lake with cement boots on . Sorry .
Rick : Doris , I want Frank here . I want Frank here right now . Because you know that I will get out of here sooner or later , and I will tell the press that you knew these were bogus charges , and you did nothing about it .
Doris : Okay . I ll look into it , even though you probably did nt vote for me . Well , it would be a shame if this got lost . Mayors are so overbooked these days . Ooh , sprinkles , my favorite .
Beth : If Rick is so worried about us being together , why did he just take off like that ?
Alan : Well , Beth , to be honest with you , I always thought Rick was a little unbalanced .
Beth : And what if there were an emergency with the baby ?
Alan : If there were an emergency , I would take care ... I would take very good care of both of you . Yes , I would , Peyton .
Beth : Come on , Alan . This is just a visit . The court is going to order them anyhow .
Alan : Well , would you at least stay for dinner .
Beth : No , I have to go find Rick . Alan , just stop being so nice and understanding and patient and kind--
Alan : I m just trying , that s all .
Beth : I just ca nt take it right now . I just ca nt .
Alan : Okay . If you and Peyton come home , I will turn over a new leaf . I promise . I will be a new man .
Cassie : I did nt decide to bring Will home . He can not stay at the detention facility by order of the court . So Will is coming home . And we re together . So why do nt we just be happy . Okay ? I m going to go wait for R.J. by the back door .
Jeffrey : Yeah , well , can we get her on the phone ? Okay , yeah . Go on in . I m going to see if I can get this judge to fix this .
Reva : Okay .
Stephen : Josh , I know that you can handle a great deal , but with everything that is going on , your family business , Cassie s troubles . Will s issues may take up too much time . How will you find time to spend with your congregation ? Wo nt Will ...
Reva : He ll be living with me . Will is going to move in with me .
Lizzie : I saw you .
Cyrus : What , on the phone ?
Lizzie : In the parking lot and when I was getting food . Why are you following me ? Is it Jonathan ?
Cyrus : Look , it s not personal . It s a job . So do nt try and shake me because I need the work . And Jonathan will just send someone else . He wants the kid for himself .
Lizzie : Hold on .
Cyrus : Hm . You got a massage at 5 : 00 .
Lizzie : I have a therapist on call . My life is very stressful .
Cyrus : Some of our appointments conflict . Can you switch some of the times . I do nt want to miss any of the fun .
Lizzie : You are a funny guy .
Cyrus : Yes , I am .
Lizzie : And as you can see , it is just one crazy party after another .
Cyrus : Look , I can keep taking your money , but there is nothing .
Josh : Jeffrey did nt say anything to me on the phone .
Reva : That s because I just thought of it .
Stephen : I think this is wonderful . The example that you are setting , that a family , no how complicated the situation , can pull together and help each other out , it s wonderful . Sometimes , Josh , true leadership is seen by our actions , more than our sermons . Well done , Josh .
Reva : That s my friend , Jeffrey . He is probably ordering one of those videos for the kid . Nothing violent . None of those violent games , nothing like that . I ll be right back .
Jeffrey : Thank you very much for your time . Every child has to be nurtured in order to grow ...
Reva : Maybe she is right .
Jeffrey : Cassie and Josh have done everything they can .
Reva : They re not Will s only family .
Jeffrey : Alonso is dead , Edmund is in a coma , and who is left ?
Reva : There s me .
Jeffrey : No , no , no , no , no .
Reva : Josh was getting beaten by Stephen in there .
Cassie : No way in hell .
Jeffrey : So you volunteered us to watch over the demon kid .
Josh : Can you guys come inside and watch Will for us ?
Jeffrey : So we re going to sleep with one eye open .
Reva : Well , we do nt really sleep that much
Jeffrey : What happened to staying out of their lives ?
Reva : Josh has a chance of losing his ministry . Together we can whip him into shape . I did it with Jonathan . He ca nt be all bad .
Cassie : Have we gone far enough that your fellowship ca nt hear me now .
Josh : I figured we should talk alone .
Cassie : You should explain to me how you and my sister decided without me , that Will would be better off living with her and Jeffrey .
Josh : The same way you decided , without me that it would be better to take Will out of detention and bring him home .
Cassie : I m supposed to send him to live with two people who practically hate him . You know I ca nt abandon him again . I ca nt lose him .
Josh : We re not talking about losing him . We re talking about saving him .
Cassie : I m talking about saving him . But clearly we have two very different methods .
Josh : Well , your method is not working !
Cassie : I know it s not working . I am losing Will , R.J. and you . I am trying everything that I can think of . I do nt know what else you want from me . I do nt know what you want .
Josh : I want my wife back . I do nt know where you are thinking . There was a time , not long ago , that we were in sync , Cassie . We could finish each other s thoughts and sentences . Do you remember that ? Do you remember the plans that we had for ourselves and our family ? Cassie , I miss that . I miss us .
Cassie : I miss us , too . I just feel like you re asking me to choose you over my son .
Josh : I m asking you to choose all of us .
Cassie : That s all I ever wanted to do . I m sorry I m failing .
Bill : Hey , hey .
Jonathan : I was looking for Sarah s toys .
Bill : Really . Lizzie s underwear drawer ?
Jonathan : I made a mistake .
Bill : You sure did . How could you do that , huh ? How could you do that to the mother of your daughter .
Jonathan : You want a war ? You re going to get a blood bath .
Bill : It will be hard when you re sitting in a jail cell .
Jonathan : Yeah , and your fat little digits have been all over it , too . We can be cell mates .
Dinah : I know you must miss your kid .
Lizzie : I just ca nt lose her again .
Dinah : Then you need to go get her back . I know that it makes Bill angry , but if she were my kid , I would make a deal with the devil to get her back . Sorry , God . See you later , okay .
Alan : Elizabeth , what a surprise .
Lizzie : This is not a proud moment for me . I need help . I need my daughter back , and you are the only one who can get her back from Jonathan . You are the only person who is as dangerous and as destructive as Jonathan .
Dinah : Okay , well , I know that I ve walked in on something obviously heavy because you ve got potential with the knife . No , stay , I found them . You know , I am heading back to the park . I saw Lizzie there , and I m going to send her back here so the three of you can talk about what is going on like reasonable adults .
Jonathan : We re not reasonable adults .
Dinah : You re not , but that s one thing you all have in common , okay ? Carry on .
Beth : Mel , Mel , have you seen Rick ? Because I have nt seen him in over 24 hours .
Mel : Well , we do share a daughter , yes .
Beth : Yeah . And , um ... do you ever talk about anything else ?
Mel : You know , we are still friends , so--
Beth : And I m glad . I m glad that he has that . But if you know--
Mel : It s kind of lousy not knowing where your husband is , is nt it ?
Beth : Yeah , yeah , it is .
Mel : No , I have nt seen Rick , but if I do see him , I ll let him know that you re looking for him .
Beth : Thank you , bitch .
Mel : Oh , and Beth , Jonathan is coming after Lizzie with both barrels . He wants full custody . He s not my client yet , but I just thought you should know .
Alan : May I speak now ?
Lizzie : Go ahead .
Alan : Jonathan is a reprobate .
Lizzie : Jonathan will stop at nothing . I need you to do whatever it takes . But not like last time . I remember the lesson about making a deal with the devil . Whenever you make it , you have to be more cunning than the snake you re shaking hands with . You can take down Jonathan , but you ca nt beat me . You taught me too well .
Alan : I certainly have .
Lizzie : So here is the deal : You help me win back Sarah , you hire lawyers , you pay off judges . You do whatever it takes .
Alan : Welcome home , Elizabeth .
Josh : Hi . Listen , Cassie and I have talked , and we ve decided to take you up on your offer to keep Will for a few days .
Reva : That s great . Let me put you on speaker phone so you can share the news . It s Josh .
Jeffrey : Hey , Josh .
Josh : Hey , Jeffrey , are you sure you re okay with this ?
Jeffrey : Can Cassie hear ?
Cassie : Tell him it is only temporary until we can get new tests and get the right kind of counseling .
Jeffrey : She said it s temporary .
Reva : We re counting on it .
Cassie : Tell them I m on my way and I want to tell Will myself .
Josh : See you in a bit .
Jeffrey : You know , Josh , this is nt a real solution .
Josh : I know that . And I understand this is a pretty big sacrifice for the two of you .
Reva : Just until things calm down with the church , we ll watch him .
Jeffrey : I put in a call for an ankle bracelet for the kid .
Reva : He did not .
Jeffrey : Seriously , he needs psychiatric attention , not just tough love .
Josh : I agree . But maybe these few days will give us a chance to figure out some kind of solution that will work .
Reva : We just want everyone to be safe .
Cassie : Will ?
Will : Are we going to go home now ?
Cassie : I have a very special surprise for you . You are going to go to your Aunt Reva s for a couple of days .
Will : Josh made you do this , did nt he ?
Cassie : Will , we need to be very brave . We need to make them see that we can make this work . And together we can fight whatever . Sometimes when you want people to play with your toys , you have to play with their toys first and then they re more willing . Do you understand ?
Will : So you want me to play with Aunt Reva and Jeffrey ?
Cassie : Just for a little while . Just until we can figure out what we do next , okay ?
Will : Okay .
Reva : How did I get here ?
Jeffrey : You re a fixer .
Reva : I m a fixer . That s kind of weird . It s always been that most people are trying to fix me . I kind of like it better that way .
Jeffrey : Too late .
Reva : Yeah , I know . I m going to go back inside and see if Will is ready to go .
Jeffrey : I ll order the straightjacket .
Reva : Watch it .
Cassie : He s all set .
Reva : Are you okay with all of this ?
Cassie : I appreciate your willingness to help .
Reva : Okay .
Cassie : He s just a little boy . Remember that .
Jeffrey : We just want him to be safe , Cassie .
Cassie : And he is my little boy .
Jeffrey : Okay , there are going to be a few house rules . First , homework , you will do it every day , right after school , no TV until it s done . Chores-- there will be chores every day , and no TV until they are done . You will make your bed every day before school . No violent video games , and if you have any problems at all , you can come and talk to me .
Reva : Or you can talk to me .
Jeffrey : I m a trained government agent , okay , so I will know everything that you do-- everything . And if you try to run away , I will track you down , and you will go to the courthouse and listen to every case of every kid whoever did anything wrong .
Reva : Listen , we are your family , we love you . We love you and we want to make this work . Why do nt you go on inside the house and get ready for bed . You want to go through this backpack and make sure he does nt have any sharp objects or matches . Hurry up .
Will : Key .
Cassie : This is hard , Josh . I dont-- I do nt know what the rules are . Do we talk about him ? Do we not talk about him ? I do nt know what the rules are supposed to be .
Josh : I do nt know that there are any rules .
Cassie : I like rules . Okay , sometimes I do nt like rules . But I do like knowing there is an answer , and I want to do what you said earlier . I want this to be our shelter . I want our home to be a peaceful , happy place .
Josh : I know that . Cassie , I m on your side .
Cassie : A quarter cup .
Josh : A quarter cup . Stephen wanted me to apologize for what you did with Beth s paternity test . I did nt do it . I could nt do it . I stood up for you . I fought for you .
Cassie : But you could have lost your church .
Josh : I know that , but I did nt . The parishioners called in , and they wrote in , and I got my job back on my own merit because I stood up for what I believed . A quarter cup .
Cassie : ( Laughs ) Put it in there .
Jonathan : I do nt want to see Lizzie hurt . I m willing to just walk away if you ll drop all of this .
Bill : Do you honestly think I believe that ?
Jonathan : I thought you might .
Bill : Shall we go .
Jonathan : You first .
Bill : Oh . I insist .
Jonathan : No . I insist . ( Rock music playing ) It must have been my lucky day .
Alan : Well , I had to wait for Bill to leave .
Jonathan : Why ? So you can shoot me with no witnesses .
Alan : Trust me .
Jonathan : Not if we were the last two men in prison .
Alan : What did Bill want ?
Jonathan : Bill wanted to see if we could come to a peaceful resolution about Sarah .
Alan : How did it go ?
Jonathan : Well , I m not bloody .
Alan : You re lying . You will never be able to share Sarah with anyone , including Elizabeth . You know why ? Because you re just like me .
Jonathan : Is this where I rip off your mask and see my own face . Realize that one day I will become just like you ?
Alan : No . This is the part where you run because controlling your family , Sarah and Reva is everything to you .
Jonathan : You took the rest of my family .
Alan : Yes . And holding onto them is very rewarding to you . That s why I m here , to offer you a deal .
Jonathan : Why would I make a deal with you ?
Alan : Because I will need your help to double cross Elizabeth .
Lizzie : What are you doing ?
Bill : Would you stop hitting me for one second . I like you . I gave you my coat . I wanted to tell you that I am sorry for being a jerk .
Lizzie : You were worse than a jerk .
Bill : An ass .
Lizzie : That s better .
Bill : I know that you are doing what you think that you have to do to stay on Jonathan s good side during this whole custody thing , okay .
Lizzie : I have to keep Jonathan off balance .
Bill : If you want to keep him off balance , put a blindfold on and spin him around a few times .
Lizzie : A blindfold and a negligee . Why did nt I think of that ? After today , Jonathan is the one who will be cut out .
Bill : Why is that ?
Lizzie : Today I sold my soul .
Alan : You see , Jonathan , Peyton means to me what Sarah means to you . Beth means to me what Tammy meant to you .
Jonathan : We re done .
Alan : Wait , Jonathan , please , I m sorry . The only point I m trying to make to you is I want some peace in my life . I just want some time to spend with my new family . And that s why I m letting you take Sarah and go live in exile , and I wo nt follow you . I wo nt come after you .
Jonathan : And in return ?
Alan : Well , in return , a few times a year I ll give you a call , and you ll let me come and see Sarah , and make sure you re raising her properly .
Jonathan : You re delusional . No .
Alan : I m offering you your best option right now . Cigar ?
Doris : Okay , so I got your case in front of the judge .
Rick : Thank you , Doris . Not only are you beautiful , but you re good .
Doris : I got it in front of the judge s chambers and you should be out in no time .
Rick : Do you have a pen ? A pen . I need to write it down .
Doris : And by the way , the four letter word for Cretin : Bozo .
Rick : Bozo . Thank you .
Alan : I ca nt tell you how wonderful it is to walk in here and see you with Peyton .
Beth : Cook tells me you already had her prepare all of my favorites . Alan , did you mean what you said ? If Peyton and I come back , would you turn over a new leaf ? No more wars and no more manipulation ?
Alan : If I have you and Peyton in my life , Beth , there is nothing I ca nt do .
Beth : Wait , wait . Just start with dinner .
Alan : Okay .
Beth : I am going to go up to my room-- old room-- and freshen up , if you would nt mind .
Alan : Oh , I would love nothing more . It s started . Jonathan thinks I m going to help him , but I am going to get you and Sarah back together and have my whole family home .
Josh : Oh , oh .
Cassie : When I look out here , I can see us playing ball and planting flowers .
Josh : And mowing ? And mowing ? And mowing . And mowing .
Cassie : Well , I should hope so .
Josh : Maybe it is time to get a riding mower . I think the boys would like it .
Cassie : You know , I can see us out here playing tag . Do you see that , Josh ?
Josh : Yes , I do .
Cassie : I m going to check on R.J. and his homework . Do you want coffee to go with that cookie ?
Josh : That would be really lovely . Thank you . ( Cell phone rings ) Hello .
Reva : Hey , Josh , we found something in Will s backpack .
Josh : An AK-47 ?
Reva : No , hang man . You know the word game . But at the bottom of the page it spells Josh . He s a very troubled little kid . What should we tell Cassie ?
Josh : Nothing . Do nt tell her anything . Just give her this night , one night of peace , okay ? Listen , I have to go . Thank you . Good - bye .
Cassie : Sorry , I did nt mean to make you get off the phone .
Josh : It was a telemarketer .
Cassie : R.J. needs help with his math homework , and since you re so much better at it than I am .
Josh : Okay . Well , I ll try to get back as quick as I can . See you in a few minutes .
Cassie : Okay .
Coming up on Guiding Light ...
Alan : Things could not be worse .
Lizzie : If Jonathan is not stopped , you could lose Sarah and Peyton .
Jonathan : No Alan , no Bill .
Lizzie : I swear .
Jonathan : I m in the church graveyard .
Alan : How appropriate . We ll let the police do the work this time .
Lizzie : Thank God you guys are here . He has my baby .

### Dialogue:
Lucy : Um -- oh , you know , ok , I m not good at cooking . I ve admitted that several times , but usually somebody could at least try the eggs . They tend to be edible occasionally when --
Ian : I m really not that hungry .
Lucy : Why ? Is last night still bothering you ?
Ian : Yeah . I m still trying to figure out the big picture .
Lucy : Oh , you knew what I meant . Come on .
Ian : I do nt know , but , yeah -- I -- hey -- I thought I was doing better , and then all of a sudden I got pulled into the woods like some -- some mindless animal .
Lucy : I know , but you could not help that .
Ian : I ca nt live like this . I ca nt have someone like Caleb have control over me like this .
Lucy : He does nt . He does nt . When he called out all his vampires , you were able to resist .
Ian : What does it matter ?
Lucy : It matters a lot . Because that -- that says you were strong enough to resist him --
Ian : No .
Lucy : And it means you are still you . You are still you inside there .
Ian : Strong enough to resist him , yeah . I hope I can believe all that .
Lucy : You can .
Ian : Am I keeping you from something ?
Lucy : Uh -- no . No , I was just expecting a delivery of some sort .
Lucy : Ah -- and there s my delivery now !
Ian : What delivery ? What are you talking about ?
Lucy : Nothing . Just a little old surprise for you .
Ian : I do nt like surprises .
Lucy : Too bad , because this one you re going to like a lot . Hey , hey , hey , come in .
Tim : Hi . Hey , buddy , who s that ?
Tess : You really think I can help Stephen ?
Alison : Yeah , I know you can .
Tess : But everyone s told me to stay away from him -- even you .
Alison : I ve been thinking about what I said a lot about that lately , and I just -- Tess , the bottom line is , is I believe in miracles . I ve seen proof of them .
Tess : Miracles ?
Alison : I just do nt -- I just do nt think that there s a way out for people like Stephen and my mother . I do nt believe that their souls are lost forever , you know ?
Tess : I do nt believe that , either .
Alison : I know you do nt . And I know that you re a healer and you ve performed miracles yourself . And you did that last night . I mean , you did the impossible . You got Caleb to call off all of the vampires . You have some sort of special bond with him , some sort of special connection that nobody else has . You can get through to him .
Tess : It s because I can see the good inside him . It s there and it wants to come out .
Alison : Yeah , I think that it does , too . And if you really try hard , I think that you can change Caleb s heart forever and make sure that he does nt hurt another person ever again .
Tess : Thank you .
Alison : For what ?
Tess : For believing in me in the way you do . No one else has done that .
Alison : Nobody ? I mean , Jack does nt believe in you ?
Tess : No , I mean , Jack -- Jack loves me , and I know that , but he does nt understand . It s not just what I want to do , it s what I have to do .
Alison : Right , it s what you have to do .
Tess : Because when I see someone in pain , in so much pain , it hurts me , too . And Stephen , he has more pain than anyone , more hurt than anyone . He needs me .
Alison : Right . And I think that you should go heal him .
Tess : Ok .
Alison : Ok .
Alison : I hope you can heal us all .
Caleb : Well , well . It s come to this .
Kevin : Hey , you got my message .
Caleb : So this is where the amateurs end up .
Kevin : Thank you . I m glad you find this amusing .
Caleb : Why d you call , Doc ?
Kevin : Well , because you re going to help me get out of here .
Caleb : You say that like you might have something that I want . But from where I m standing , this door is locked , and it s staying that way .
Reese : Well , well , well . If it is nt our little songbird .
Casey : What do they say in your country , Reese ? Oh , yeah -- sod off .
Reese : Not until we get something straight , princess . Ricky is off - limits .
Casey : Oh , what , he s hooked up with you ?
Reese : Let s just say I have plans for that boy that do nt include you .
Casey : He s in more trouble than I thought .
Reese : Excuse me ?
Casey : Listen , slut - cakes , Ricky Garza s got more sense than to waste his life on a skanky garden tool like you .
Reese : You little --
Casey : Yes , Reese ? You were saying ?
Jack : Alison .
Alison : Hi . I just -- I stopped by to say hi .
Jack : Ok . Well , where s Tess ? Does she know you re here ?
Alison : Yeah , we had a nice little talk .
Jack : Well , where is she now ?
Alison : I do nt know . I think she -- I think she went to go run an errand or something .
Jack : An errand or something ? What kind of errand ?
Alison : I do nt know . She did nt say .
Jack : Ok , Alison , you re acting really funny . What s up ?
Alison : No , I m not . No , everything s fine . Nothing s wrong .
Jack : Now , we re friends , right ?
Alison : Yeah . We re best friends .
Jack : Ok , then tell me what s going on . Tess is my wife , and we re in the fight of our lives . If you think there s something I should know --
Alison : Ok . Ok , but when I tell you this , please do nt get upset with me . It s really not -- it s not as bad as it s going to sound --
Jack : What s not that bad ? Where s Tess ?
Alison : She went to go see Caleb . She went to try and heal him .
Tess : Stephen ?
Tess : Stephen , are you here ?
Joshua : Tess . What a pleasant surprise . I believe you and I have some unfinished business .
Kevin : Have you forgotten that I got you access to Tess ? I can do that again .
Caleb : Hmm . But I do nt need your help with Tess anymore . See , we ve sort of formed a little bond of our own . You might even say we ve become friends . Speaking of which , in times like this , is nt that what you people do ? You turn to your friends ?
Kevin : Yes , but my friends wo nt help me . Not even my own father .
Caleb : Bummer . I guess they all figured out you re nuttier than a fruitcake . Well , it s been real , Doc --
Kevin : Wait , wait . I really need to get out of here .
Caleb : For what ? To kill your wife and her boyfriend ? It s so unoriginal .
Kevin : You know , my wife is a slayer of those like you .
Caleb : So what ? You re proposing if I get you out of here , you ll kill Lucy ? Is that what this is all about ?
Ian : Look at you , Danny , you ve gotten so big .
Tim : Yeah , you ll see how big when you lug him around for awhile .
Lucy : Hey , it s all -- it s all right . It s ok .
Ian : Hey , boy .
Ian : Help me .
Ian : I ca nt do it . Get him out of here .
Tim : Oh .
Lucy : Um --
Ian : That was a bad idea . You should nt have done that .
Lucy : No , no -- wait , could you -- just a second , ok ?
Tim : Yeah .
Lucy : Listen to me . It was nt a bad idea . It s ok . I know what you re thinking . You wo nt hurt him , I know that .
Ian : Yeah , I wish to God I could believe that .
Lucy : You can . It s true . I believe that with my whole being . I would nt have brought him here otherwise . Please --
Ian : I ca nt have him seeing me like a monster . I ca nt have that .
Lucy : He wo nt see you like that , because that s not what you are . Last night you proved it . You re just you . Go to him .
Ian : Hey . Little man , come here .
Tim : All right .
Ian : I -- I ve missed you . You have no idea how much .
Ian : What ? Do you want some of this food ? It s not very good , buddy . Do you want to try some ?
Lucy : Oh !
Ian : Lucy cooked it .
Kevin : I never said anything about killing Lucy .
Caleb : But you want to , do nt you , Doc ? I know all about vengeance . She put you in here . And now she s sleeping with another man . No jury in my world would convict you .
Kevin : What I do about Lucy and Thornhart is my business .
Caleb : But you re asking me to make it mine . Hmm . I ll tell you what . Keep her distracted , out of my face , off her toes .
Kevin : You almost make it sound like you re protecting her .
Caleb : Well , to be honest with you , even thought she s a slayer , I am much more fond of Lucy than I am of you , Doc . But , like you say , what you do when you re out of here is your business .
Kevin : So you will help me ?
Caleb : Consider yourself sprung . There is one other stipulation .
Kevin : Name it .
Caleb : Someday in the future -- maybe tomorrow , maybe 10 years from now -- I m going to come to you and I ll need a favor . And you , no questions asked , will grant me that favor . Do we have an understanding ?
Kevin : Understood .
Caleb : Then we have a deal .
Reese : How did you do that ?
Casey : Oh -- do what , Reese ?
Reese : That branch came out of nowhere and totally knocked me down .
Casey : Yeah ? Well , I think that s what you call being a klutz , or -- or wasted . Although you know what ? It does seem early enough even for you .
Reese : I am not wasted .
Casey : Oh , yeah ?
Reese : And you re going to so wish you had nt done that .
Casey : Bite me .
Reese : Oh , I d love to . Someday , little girl .
Casey : I ca nt wait .
Casey : Look , I know , I know , ok ? Bite me , a little too close to home , but you know what ? The little booger was pissing me off .
Jamal : Who are you talking to ? Hey .
Casey : Oh , hey . Uh , nobody .
Jamal : Nobody ?
Casey : No .
Jamal : Seems like a long conversation to be having with nobody .
Casey : Uh -- well , you know , sometimes , I -- I like talking to the clouds .
Jamal : No , I do nt know , because you do nt do that , Marissa . In fact , you do nt do anything you used to do . But I did see how you made that branch jump off the ground and knock Reese on her butt . I did see that .
Casey : You saw that ?
Jamal : Yeah . In fact , I m starting to see everything now -- Casey . It is you , is nt it ?
Jack : All right , you re telling me Tess went to see Caleb , and you just let her go ? God , I hope it s not too late .
Alison : No , wait , Jack . I do nt think that you should go .
Jack : What ? ?
Alison : I do nt think that you should try and stop her . She thinks that maybe she can turn Caleb around , and I think that she can . You should at least let her try .
Jack : Alison , do you remember who we re dealing with here ?
Alison : I know who we re dealing with here . I know Caleb , and I know what he s done . But if she thinks that -- that she can get through to him , then ca nt you at least let her try ? I think that she can do it again . Last night was proof of that .
Jack : Alison --
Alison : She s special . So why is nt this possible ? Please , why ?
Jack : You put her up to this , did nt you ?
Alison : No , I did nt . I just thought that maybe --
Jack : No , I do nt care what you thought . You had no right to put her in this kind of danger .
Alison : I -- he s not going to hurt her .
Jack : He does nt give a damn about Tess . All he s after is Livvie !
Alison : Jack , please -- I just thought that maybe --
Jack : No , no . She s in danger . And you better hope it s not too late to stop it .
Alison : Wait -- I m going to come with you .
Tess : Where is Stephen ? I m -- I m here to see Stephen .
Joshua : Well , Stephen s not here . Therefore , I m afraid it s just you and me .
Tess : I ll come back later .
Joshua : You re frightened of me , are nt you ? I mean , I can understand that . But there s no reason to be . I -- I m not going to hurt you .
Tess : You tried to kill me and Livvie . You pushed us into the river .
Joshua : I m really sorry about that . No , I really am . I was having an unbelievably bad day and I made a mistake and I -- I regret it . But you re so good and you re so pure , you -- you have nt told anyone , particularly Stephen . And I know you re going to find it in your heart to forgive me .
Tess : You re not sorry . I do nt believe you .
Joshua : Tess --
Tess : You re bad . You re very bad .
Casey : Hey , Jamal , I do nt know what you re talking about . I mean --
Casey : You actually think that I , Marissa , am Casey .
Jamal : Come on , come on , come on , kill all that noise , ok ? I ve been following you , ok ? I ve seen you in action .
Casey : Great ! Great . No one s supposed to know about this ! Ed is going to kill me !
Jamal : Funny , I thought you already were dead .
Casey : I am dead . I m an angel , ok ? I have been ever since you met me . What -- no -- no shock ? No freaking out ?
Jamal : Are you serious ? That s supposed to surprise me ? I m from Port Charles , ok ? No , but I do have one question for you .
Casey : Ok , just one ?
Jamal : Yeah , just one . Where s your sister Marissa ?
Casey : Yeah . Um -- I -- I had to send her away .
Jamal : You what ?
Casey : Look , she -- she was about to out Stephen as a vampire , all right ? She would have gotten herself killed . So I did nt know what else to do , so I sent her home and I --
Jamal : Ok , ok , ok , ok , ok . I understand . Ok , that s fine . I ve been actually trying to get through to her so she could see how much danger she s been in , but --
Casey : Right .
Jamal : I m just glad you got through to her .
Casey : Yeah , me , too .
Jamal : Yeah . So , where is she ? I want to see her . Come on , where is she at ?
Casey : Um -- you ca nt , Jamal . She s off - limits to you and to everybody else .
Jamal : Oh , wait , wait , wait --
Casey : No , you know what ? If you -- if you even bring her back into this , she ll get pulled in and she ll die , all right ? You got to leave her alone .
Jamal : I do nt believe this .
Casey : Look , man , if it makes any difference , it was really hard for her to leave you . I mean , she -- she really digs you .
Jamal : Yeah .
Casey : The important thing is that she s all right . Right ?
Jamal : Yeah . She really is ok , right ?
Casey : Yeah . And look , I m sorry you had to see me macking on Ricky like that . It s just I missed him so much , you know ?
Jamal : Do nt worry about it . I understand . I mean , I understand now . Does Ricky know ?
Casey : No . No , and he ca nt . He does nt -- he does nt need to know that I m his guardian angel , ok ?
Jamal : Ok , ok , do nt worry about it . I m not going to tell anybody . Besides , I do nt think anybody would believe me , anyway .
Casey : Thank you .
Jamal : Yeah . No problem . But I got to tell you , you re doing a pretty bang - up job at playing Marissa . It s not too good .
Casey : I know , I know , I know . It s just so hard . I -- I did nt think it was going to be this hard .
Jamal : Yeah , I know . Just -- you ll be ok . Just need a few pointers from somebody who really knew her well .
Ian : All right , little man . You be good for uncle Tim , ok ? Do you want another one of these ? I m going to keep fighting . And that s why we re going to be a family again . All right ? Come on .
Tim : All right , big guy .
Ian : Goodbye , boy .
Tim : Say bye - bye .
Ian : Thank you . Bye .
Lucy : Hey , he ll be back before you know it . This whole separation thing , it s just -- it s just temporary , that s all .
Ian : How did you know ? How did you know that was exactly what I needed ?
Lucy : Lucky guess , I guess .
Ian : I feel like a father again .
Lucy : And that s never going to change , ever .
Ian : Thank God for you , Lucy . Thank God .
Kevin : Huh . I see your future , Lucy and Ian . And it s not pretty .
Tess : You re a bad man . I do nt believe a word you re saying .
Joshua : I just want you to listen to me . I m trying to explain to you that I was wrong . I do nt want you to stay away from Stephen . On the contrary , I think you re exactly what he deserves .
Tess : I do nt have to talk to you . Get away from me .
Joshua : No , you do nt have to talk to me , but you have to listen to me . Listen to what I have to say .
Tess : Jack !
Jack : Get your hands off of her !
Tess : Oh , God .
Jack : Hey .
Alison : God , it s you .
Joshua : Yes , my dear , it s me . I m back . Boo .
Tess : Can you please take me home ?

Lea : Ever since we thought there was a link between the money - laundering case and Cassandra s kidnapping , I ve pulled everything on the Koslovs -- rap sheets , immigration info , the works . I thought I had seen this before .
Jesse : Forensics ran it for prints . It was clean .
Lea : Where did you find this anyway ?
Jesse : On a dead body we found in an alley this morning .
Zach : So Koslov s dead .
Lea : You ca nt assume it was Koslov s body just because he was wearing the same medallion . DB have prints ?
Jesse : [ Scoffs ] Prints , facial features -- all burned beyond recognition .
Zach : So , someone did nt want to be IDd .
Jesse : I m waiting on dental records . Hopefully , when I get that , we ll be able to ID him .
JR : You know , I saw your press conference . You know , I m no medical expert , but this biosensor sounds pretty innovative . I hope your relationship with Pete Cortlandt works out .
David : Mm . Is this sensitivity thing working for you , Junior ? Because I m not buying it for a second .
JR : Well , believe what you want , but I m genuinely happy for you . You re getting a second chance . We ve got a lot in common .
David : [ Chuckles ] All right . Let s see . Um ... I m a brilliant , world - renowned medical innovator , whereas you are a feeble , homicidal executive wannabe . Now , what part of that connection am I missing ?
AJ : Let off of him , okay ?
JR : It s okay . You know , I m hoping people are gon na judge me for who I am today , not who I used to be .
David : If you think anyone s gon na give you another chance in this town , you re dreaming .
JR : Well , I certainly hope Brooke does nt feel that way . I mean , you should really see what she s doing with Chandler media . I mean , she s taking it to a whole new level . I m hoping that as soon as I m strong enough , I m gon na be a huge part of it .
Jane : Sorry . Oh . Thank you . [ Exclaims ]
Dixie : Hey , Angie . It s Dixie . Um , listen , I m so sorry I have nt called you --
Billy Clyde : Dixie !
Dixie : [ Screams ] What are you doing here ? What do you want from me ?
Billy Clyde : Not a thing . Except your forgiveness .
Dixie : Forgiveness ? ! Are you crazy ? ! You kidnapped me . You tried to kill my husband . How dare you ask me for forgiveness !
Billy Clyde : Dixie , dear --
Dixie : No . Do nt you -- do nt you take one more step toward me , or I swear to God , I will call the police , Mister .
Billy Clyde : Now , Dixie --
Dixie : No ! [ Slaps ]
Billy Clyde : Oh !
Dixie : Snap out of it . I swear to God , if you ever touch me again , I will call the police , and you will rue the day .
Billy Clyde : [ Sighs ]
AJ : Let me help you up . Please .
JR : All right . Thanks .
Jane : I am such a klutz .
JR : No . It s totally my fault .
Jane : I m gon na get more to clean this up .
JR : It s okay . Thank you .
AJ : Are you sure you re okay ?
JR : Yeah , I m fine . Look , I took a spill . It s no big deal . [ Chuckles ] Are nt you supposed to go meet Miranda ?
AJ : I mean , I do nt want to just leave you here .
JR : AJ , I m fine . Really . [ Chuckling ] Come on . It s okay .
AJ : All right .
JR : I ve got it .
AJ : All right . I ll see you later .
David : Hey . [ Hugs AJ ] Now that I m back , let s stay in touch , all right ? If that was your audition for Dancing With the Stars , I d say you blew it .
JR : Accidents happen .
David : Mm . Well , the way you re going , you wo nt be strong enough to be Brooke s errand boy , let alone an executive at Chandler Media . You might want to hit the gym , Junior , before someone kicks sand in your face .
JR : I know what you re up to with my son . You blame me for the loss of your daughters , and you think you can get back at me through him . That is not gon na happen . I wo nt sit back and let you take my son .
Opal : Oh ! [ Chuckles ] Celia .
Celia : Hi , Mrs. Cortlandt . Uh , sorry . I was just returning some things .
Opal : Oh , well , first , it s just Opal . Call me Opal , but ... did , uh , did Pete leave some of his clothes with you or ... ?
Celia : Oh , no . No . Nothing like that . He bought them for me in New York .
Opal : And you re returning them . Aww . Then it s true ? You and Petey broke up ? Oh , I m sorry . Why do nt you come inside , and I ll make you a nice cup of my special tea .
Celia : Thanks , but I do nt really want to interrupt .
Opal : Oh , I m just doing my tai chi . [ Chuckles ] Lord knows that can wait . Come on . Come in the house , now .
Jesse : I got a dentist in Moscow to send me Uri s dental records . The ME s reviewing them now .
Lea : That should clarify things .
Zach : Hey , while we re waiting , can you fingerprint me ? Because super - agent over here thinks I killed Koslov .
Jesse : Have you not seen what this man has been willing to do for me and my wife ? To even think that this man could kill somebody is crazy . You are scary !
Zach : Jesse ! Jesse ! Jesse ! We ll deal with that later . What do we know about Cassandra ?
Jesse : [ Sighs ] It s just one dead end after another .
Lea : I have to tell you , Jesse -- we have no idea what kind of lead time they had . I m really sorry . Whoever took Cassandra could be long gone by now .
Jesse : You got news for me ?
ME : We have a match .
Lea : Koslov ?
ME : I compared the records that were sent from Moscow to the victim that we have , and , uh , it s identical . The body found this morning is Uri Koslov .
Lea : I m not surprised .
ME : I ve also positively IDd the blood found on the weapon at the crime scene as Uri Koslov s , and the wounds in the chest of the victim are consistent with the weapon s dimensions . Mr. Koslov was stabbed with the letter opener .
Jesse : Well , that pretty much answers all those questions .
ME : Yeah , one more thing . I found some prints on the letter opener . I figured I d run them through the system to see if we found anything on them , and ... the prints were an exact match for Zach Slater .
Colby : Looks like the ex - con thing is kind of working out for you .
David : Mm . And I m guessing your sole contribution to the world over these past five years has been skimming the cream off your daddy s company .
Colby : [ Chuckles ] It s a gift . So , are you two really doing business together ?
Pete : That s the plan .
Colby : Wear a bullet - proof vest . This one shoots when he gets mad .
David : I forgot what a sense of humor you had , Colby .
Colby : Well , you are the big , bad wolf . But lucky for everyone , Pete is even more genius than you , and he can totally handle the mano a mano .
David : Oh , I do nt think I m the mano a mano that Pete needs to be looking out for .
Jesse : What the hell ? !
Uri : Is there problem ?
Jesse : Framing Zach Slater was not a part of the deal .
Uri : Actually , it was . You just never figured it out .
Jesse : The deal was you disappear , I get my daughter . That was the deal .
Uri : Your friend , your daughter , your choice .
Jesse : The frame wo nt hold up .
Uri : An arrest would tie everything up nicely . That is where you come in .
Jesse : I did everything you asked me to do . You need to let my daughter go .
Uri : She will be home as soon as you make that arrest .
Rachel : Die !
Jonathan : [ Groans ]
Rachel : Hey , Miranda , you want to play ?
Miranda : No , I m good .
Heather : Are nt those girls the biatches that snubbed Miranda at Jane s Addiction ?
AJ : Yeah . They ve been going to school together for years , though .
Heather : So , they re friends ?
AJ : Uh , ye - yeah .
Heather : But they totally blew her off when she wanted to sit with them .
AJ : Oh , it s cool now .
Heather : Did you really just do that ?
AJ : Yes . I like it hot .
Heather : All right . Well , share already . Thanks for inviting me .
AJ : Are you kidding me ? Thanks for friending us so we could . It was Miranda s idea to give you the invite .
Heather : Oh .
Heather : Are you and Miranda --
AJ : Whoa ! I love this song .
Heather : Me , too . Best band ever . I mean , except for the Stones .
AJ : Yes .
Heather : [ Laughs ]
AJ : Come on , people . Get up .
Heather : Come on .
Zach : Well , that s not helping me . Call me when you find something . Okay .
Lea : Anything ?
Zach : Not yet . No .
Lea : So , is this where your source is going to meet you ?
Zach : Mm - hmm . Although not with you here .
Lea : I m not going anywhere .
Zach : I know . You ca nt , because you think I killed someone and then left the murder weapons with my fingerprints next to the body . Does nt make a lot of sense , does it ?
Lea : You did slip your tail that night .
Zach : Yeah . And then what did I do ? I killed Uri and then found you again ? Come on , man . I m being set up .
Lea : Oh , that s right . Just like you were set up for money laundering .
Zach : [ Sighs ] Can I explain something to you ? If I wanted Koslov gone , they d never find him .
Lea : You have to admit you had plenty of time , plenty of opportunity , plenty of motive .
Zach : Stop . Shh .
Lea : When you lay out all the evidence --
Zach : Stop . Stop . I ll go very slowly . I did not kill Uri Koslov . But I will find whoever did .
Angie : Do nt you try to protect me , not this time . If you ve heard anything about Cassandra , I need to know .
Jesse : There s nothing . I swear .
Angie : There is something .
Jesse : Angela ...
Dixie : Jesse . Excuse me . Uh , Billy Clyde is alive , and he s back in town . I need you to arrest him .
Jesse : For ... ?
Dixie : Well , he ... kidnapped me , remember ? He tried to murder Tad .
Jesse : All right . Calm down , Dixie .
Dixie : I m not gon na calm down .
Jesse : Well , what did he do today ? Did he hurt you in any way ?
Dixie : He -- he was creeping around . He tried to talk to me . He -- it does nt matter , okay ? He is crazy , and he was obsessed with me . I need you to do something .
Jesse : Look , Dixie . I m sorry , but the statute of limitations is five years .
Dixie : So , what ? He just gets to be here , free ?
Jesse : I m sorry .
Dixie : He s a monster , Jesse .
Jesse : You know , I wish I could slam every monster up under my jail , but unfortunately , that s just not the way the world works today .
Dixie : You have to do something !
Jesse : You know what ? I have some serious police work to do . You have to forgive me . I got to go .
Dixie : Jesse ! [ Sighs ]
Jesse : We ll talk .
Dixie : This is really incredible . I mean , do nt you -- Billy Clyde ... stalked me . He terrorized me . He tried to kill Tad . I mean -- and now he just gets to live his life ? ! How am I supposed to live my life like a normal person knowing this wacko is around town ? !
Ruby Marie : Holy moley .
Billy Clyde : What ?
Ruby Marie : Do nt you get your lottery tickets from Gerlach s ?
Billy Clyde : I do .
Ruby Marie : The mega - winner has nt claimed the prize . Where s your ticket ?
Billy Clyde : [ Groans ] Here . Here .
Ruby Marie : Give me that .
Billy Clyde : Hold the line . I gave it to you for safe keeping .
Ruby Marie : [ Gasps ] Yeah . I put it in my bra . That was days ago .
Billy Clyde : Oh . [ Bangs fist ] Where is it ?
Celia : I actually really , really liked him . I ve never felt this way about anyone . I - I m sure Pete has .
Opal : But you know what they say . Men , they re like streetcars . There s always another one coming down the track , especially for a pretty girl like you .
Celia : I ca nt imagine dating anyone again .
Opal : Hearts heal , and they grow stronger , take it from one who knows .
Celia : Well , I ve taken up enough of your time . Thank you so much for listening .
Opal : Oh , honey . Anytime you feel like talking , you come to Opal , all right ?
Celia : Thanks . Thanks for the tea .
Opal : Yeah . You take care of yourself .
Pete : Listen , it is critical that we prioritize ...
Pete : ... Allocation of funds .
Colby : [ Giggles ] Sorry .
David : I d agree . I mean , these numbers look great but R & D is just ...
David : ... Is just the beginning .
Colby : [ Laughs ]
Pete : Look it over . We ll meet again tomorrow ?
David : Will do . All right .
Colby : Perfect timing . I was thinking Cheval Blanc , martinis .
Pete : No . I got to stop by Cortlandt .
Colby : I ll go with you .
Pete : It s a meeting .
Colby : I ll wait .
Pete : Honestly , it s gon na be a while , but I will call you . Tomorrow .
David : I hate to break this to you , but he s not gon na call .
Colby : Well , the chase is half the fun .
David : Since when did you have to break a sweat to chase after a guy ?
Colby : [ Chuckles ] I m as cool as a cucumber .
David : Petey s gone . You do nt have to pretend with me .
Colby : I do nt know what you think I m pretending , but I asked a friend to a party , and he was working . It s no big deal .
David : Hmm . Fake it until you feel it , right ? Personally , I think you can do a hell of a lot better .
Colby : I do nt recall asking you what you think .
David : No , you did nt . I m just offering an objective opinion . Any young man that would turn down a chance to party with a beautiful , smart , sophisticated girl as yourself is an absolute fool . It s either that or you re losing your touch .
Colby : Never .
Miranda : Oh , my God !
Heather : Oh , my -- that shit !
Miranda : Hunter ! [ Scoffs ] God , why does he hate me so much ?
Heather : Uh , Miranda , it s not about you . It s about Hunter . He is totally infantile . This proves it . I mean , what a loser ! Everyone s gon na think so .
Miranda : No , no , no ! You ca nt tell anyone .
Billy Clyde : [ Sobbing ] Come , come , come . Oh . Ohh . [ Chuckling ] [ Smooches ] Oh . Oh , thank you , Lord . Oh . Honey , read me the numbers .

AJ : You d tell me if something was wrong , right ?
Miranda : Definitely . Um , it was good that Rachel and Kirsten came .
AJ : Yeah .
Miranda : Look , a friendship bracelet . [ Chuckles ]
AJ : Ooh . Look at that . Nice .
Miranda : Yeah . Kind of weird . [ Chuckles ] So , um , Heather -- she s super fun .
AJ : Oh , my God . She s awesome . I mean , she liked The Who and jalapenos , like --

Heather : [ Chuckles ] Lucky you .
Miranda : Yeah . Why ? Do you , um - do you like him ? [ Chuckles ]
Heather : Is that okay ? I - I would nt want to mess anything up .
Miranda : No . Nothing to mess up .
AJ : Hey . Uh , so , the cab s on the way . I ll walk you to the gate .
Heather : Thanks .
Pete : Cleaning out your closets ?
Opal : Oh , Celia just dropped these by . You know , if you still have the receipts , I can take them to the store and get your money back .
Pete : I ca nt believe she did this . Did she say anything ?
Opal : Oh , just ... she did nt want them anymore . Something like that .
Pete : [ Chuckles ] What the hell did I do that was so wrong ?
Colby : So , I already explained . I m not a bitch . I m a perfectionist . But you know how the French are .
David : [ Chuckles ] Mai oui .
Man : I m sorry , but your credit card was declined .
Colby : Just run it again .
Man : I ran it three times .
Colby : Oh , I m sorry . There must be some type of misunderstanding . Just put it on my father s account .
Man : I ca nt do that .
Colby : You do know I m a Chandler , right ?
David : [ Chuckles ] You know what ? It s all right . Just , uh ... here . Put it on my bill .
Colby : I ll pay you back .
David : There s no need . [ Chuckles ] It looks like you shopped your way across the Riviera , huh ?
Colby : You know , the whole exchange rate thing . [ Chuckles ] Euros , dollars -- it s so confusing .
David : Mm - hmm . And now you re tapped out .
Colby : So boring .
David : Well , a beautiful girl like you should not be underfunded . How much ?
Colby : You re going to give me a loan ?
David : Not a loan . I m giving you a gift .
Colby : Why ? You do nt even like me that much .
David : Well , let s just say because I can . Okay ? And because I want to do my part to keep a smile on that gorgeous face of yours .
Colby : Okay , there has to be more to this .
David : Do you really care ?
Colby : $ 30,000 should take care of things . [ Chuckles ]
David : Good .
Lea : So , it looks like your source did nt show up .
Zach : Why ca nt you go annoy somebody else , huh ? I came out here because I wanted you to stay in there .
Jesse : Zach .
Zach : Jesse , what are you doing here ? Did you find Cass ?

Sarah : You were gone for about 50 seconds . I did nt have a chance .
Rex : You know , for someone who does nt want to be seen , you sure picked a conspicuous place to have dinner .
Sarah : I like to live dangerously .

Sarah : Did nt seem dangerous at the time .
Rex : Oh , yeah ?
Blair : She longs for the warmth of his touch he s right there beside her but there s nobody home and that s the difference between lonely and being alone that s the difference between lonely and being alone .

Sarah : An accessory to what ?
Rex : Murder .
Blair : She used to feel sorry for all of the girls who spend Friday nights by themselves .

Dorian : When he s well enough to have visitors , I d like to go see him . Would that upset you ?
Clint : When I think of the devil s bargain I had to make with that man in order to save my daughter --
Dorian : Yes . But the end result is so good , does any of that really matter ?
Clint : Oh . Look , I am -- happy that my daughter s ok , all right ? But David Vickers now has 10 million Buchanan dollars and I would give my eye teeth to see him pay for it with more than a vital organ .
Miles : Is nt it moving how a family can come together in a crisis ? I want to take my family out to dinner tonight , you and Cole , because today has made me realize what s really important .
Marty : Well , Cole has plans with Starr .
Miles : Well , he ll have to break them .
Starr : So is this your new hobby , Britney ? Wandering around the park looking for people to piss off ?
Britney : No . I was just pointing out that you two should enjoy this while you can . You know , who knows how long it ll last ? Love is fleeting , after all .
Starr : Oh , love is fleeting , after all . Do you have a pen ? I should write that down .

Starr : What heart ?
Britney : Get new material , Starr .
Britney : Oh , I have a message . Ok , I m going to the dinner with the girls . Ciao .

Starr : Because she s pathetic .
Cole : And jealous .
Starr : You know , if you want to go feel sorry for her , do it someplace else .
Cole : Whoa , Starr , where d that come from ?
Starr : I m sorry . I m just --
Cole : It s your dad , is nt it ? It s ok , I have you .
John : Hey . You ok ?
Blair : Yeah , yeah . I just , you know -- sad song . I m going to have to add a little upbeat to my repertoire , you know ? Maybe Skip to my Lou , Yankee Doodle ?
John : Yeah , those are good ones .
Blair : Mm - hmm .
John : Maybe Capricorn will do , you know , kids birthday parties and stuff .
Blair : Well , I need to pull myself together and get back to work .
John : If you want to take a minute , you know ? You do nt -- you do nt want to have another meltdown .
Blair : It s just -- John , every day -- every day that goes by with Todd missing --
Sarah : I may be able to help .
Blair : Wait -- did you hear from Hunter or you know something about Todd ?
Sarah : No , neither , I swear .
Blair : Well , then how can you help me , Sarah ?
Sarah : I just -- I meant I would try to be more supportive -- I mean , if I can help you in any way .
Blair : What the hell are you rambling on about ?
Sarah : What you said just now , up on stage -- it got to me .
Blair : Oh . Now it got to you ? Are nt you the sensitive type ?
Sarah : I did try to take care of Todd when he was at my place .
Blair : Oh , and it never occurred to you to call 911 , did it ?
Sarah : I admit it , ok ? I m a bitch . Sorry . I m just a little allergic to the idea of prison .
John : Who is nt ?
Sarah : I was nt going to jail for something I did nt do .
Blair : No , you were just going to let your uncle Todd die because you re a spoiled brat . You know , if you do nt have anything to offer to help find Todd , why do nt you just go away ? You better start watching her .
Rex : We re on it , Cristian and I both .
John : That s very comforting , is nt it ? Did she seem genuine to you ?
Blair : She should ve been more genuine when she had Todd in her apartment . Now she comes in here like , oh , I want to help , she s all guilt - ridden . Well , you know what ? To hell with her . Do you have an angle ?
John : Yeah , I m working some different angles , but I m going to need some more time .
Blair : John , we re running out of time .
Rex : What was that all about ? One minute you re hiding from Blair , and the next , you re all over her like a cheap suit ?
Sarah : I was trying to be nice , which obviously was a bad idea given how nasty she was .
Rex : Yeah , well , her kids have nt seen their dad in a whole long time , so she s kind of in a rotten mood these days .
Rex : I got to take this . Wait here . Rex Balsom -- can I help you ? Michael , what s up ?
Michael : I need to talk to you . Can we meet someplace ?
Rex : Sure , I m at Capricorn .
Michael : Ok . I ll be right there .
Rex : Whew .
Marcie : We need to talk .
Michael : Marcie , this is nt a good time . I -- I -- I need to go meet somebody .
Marcie : I thought you came here to check on a patient . Or did you just want to get out of the house ?
Michael : I just wanted a little time to myself . Where s Tommy ?
Marcie : He s with Lindsay .
Michael : Well , was he sleeping when you left ? Because , you know , he likes for you to put him down .
Marcie : Michael , Tommy is fine . The question is , are we ?
Dorian : Clint , I know this is very difficult for you , but David did come through .
Clint : Oh , yeah , for all the wrong reasons .
Dorian : But the end result --
Clint : Yeah , the end result is wonderful , and I m ecstatic that my daughter s ok , but I m also angry that she even had to go through all this . I m angry enough to want to rip out the rest of David s liver with my bare hands !
Marty : Do nt push me on this , especially not here , not now .
Miles : Look , I was just -- I was trying to suggest that we have dinner together as a family . I -- I ll call Cole myself and invite him .
Marty : No , do nt .
Miles : No , I will .
Marty : Miles --
Miles : Cole , hi .
Cole : What s up ?
Miles : Uh -- your mother and I would like you to join us for dinner tonight , you and Starr . You re free , I hope .
David : No , no , I m not a hero , Jessica . I m just a donor , and believe me , the risk was low . I had it checked and double - checked before I agreed to this .
Jessica : You can downplay it all you want , but you saved my life .
David : Yeah . Everything has its price .
Nash : Jessica .
Jessica : Huh -- my husband .
Nash : My beautiful wife .
Jessica : Yeah .
Marcie : When I first found out that I could nt get pregnant , the first thing I thought about was you . You know , I -- I expected you were going to take this hard . I was -- I was worried about you , Michael . I was worried about how disappointed that you would be .
Michael : Me ?
Marcie : Yeah .
Michael : You wanted to have another child , too , Marcie . Why is this all about me ?
Marcie : Because I ve had time to deal with this . I ve had time to take this in , Michael . This is new to you , which is why I wanted us to work through it , together . But you left . And you came here ? Of all places , Michael -- you re not even on duty . Do you know how that made me feel , that you ca nt be with me , Michael ? That s exactly what I was worried about in the first place .
Michael : I m so sorry , sweetie .
Marcie : No . No , see , that s the thing -- you re not sorry . You re angry . You feel ripped off . You feel like something s been taken away from you .
Michael : No , Marcie , it s not like that !
Marcie : Well , then , what is it ? What is it ? How do you feel , because I ll tell you this much , Michael -- you certainly did nt stop and think about how I felt in this situation . On top of knowing that I ca nt get pregnant , you just left . You upped and disappeared . Do you know how much that hurt ? It really hurt .
Michael : It s awful . Listen . I said that I was sorry , and I meant it . I have -- I have been callous and -- and thoughtless lately .
Marcie : Huh .
Michael : Oh , Marcie , honey , I love you . I love our son . We -- we could always try and adopt again , you know ? We ll have other kids . It s going to be fine , Marcie . It s all going to be fine .
Marcie : No . That s the thing . It s never going to be the same , Michael .
Michael : Marcie ? You re the love of my life . You are the best thing that ever happened to me . I do nt ever want you to doubt that .
Marcie : Ok .
Michael : I really wish that we could talk more now , but I really do have to meet somebody .
Marcie : Oh .
Michael : Marcie , it s important . If it was nt important , I would nt leave you like this .
Marcie : Mm - hmm .
Michael : You have to believe me . Do you believe me ?
Marcie : Yes -- yeah . I do . Sure .
Michael : Ok , then .
Marcie : Hmm .
Michael : Well , I guess we re just going to have to work this thing out at home . I ll see you later ?
Marcie : Yeah .
Marcie : I ll see you later .
Sarah : Excuse me . Can you tell me if Jessica Buchanan is out of surgery yet ?
Nurse : She is . She s being moved to a room soon .
Sarah : That means she s doing well , huh ?
Nurse : Are you family ?
Sarah : Never mind .
Rex : Get your ass back here , Sarah -- do you understand ? Playing hide - and - seek is not part of our deal . Just get back here , damn it . What s going on ?
John : Yeah , that s what I d like to know .
Rex : Sarah s peaced out . Turned around for one second and she was gone .
John : Was nt that the arrangement -- either you or Cris watches her 24/7 ?
Rex : Do nt worry . I ll track her down .
John : I am worried .
Michael : What the hell are you doing ?
Nash : Doctors say you re doing great , thanks to that guy over there . We owe you , man .
David : Hmm .
Jessica : That s what I ve been trying to tell him , but he wo nt have any of it .
David : I m being repaid 10 million times over .
Jessica : Sorry , you re just going to have to bear with us , David . You re an incredible person , incredibly generous .
David : You would nt say that if you knew me better . Ahem .
Nash : Uh - oh -- I m in trouble . I could nt wait . Nurse : Well , I m about to bring Mrs. Brennan to her room .
Nash : Fantastic . I ll help you .
Jessica : See you soon ?
David : See you .
Nash : Ready ? Oh -- oh ! Goodness gracious , man . I bet there s an easy way of doing this .
David : Hear you got me my own room .
Clint : You re lucky your ass is nt out in the parking lot .
Starr : I do nt see your mom and Miles here . Do you ?
Cole : Yeah , they must be on their way .
Starr : Great .
Cole : Hey , maybe I should call my mom and ask if we can go someplace else .
Starr : No , no , no , no , no , no . We are not going to let them drive us away . We re just going to sit down and pretend that they re not even here .
Starr : I bet you re really excited for tonight , huh ? You get to have dinner with your mom and your psycho step - dad ?
Cole : No , I m ok . I mean , I have to try to learn to accept the situation , right ? So , maybe dinner s a good start . But you do nt have to be here , though . I know how you feel about Miles .
Starr : Well , I m hoping that maybe he ll slip out something about my dad .
Cole : Yeah , maybe .
Starr : Even if he does nt , I still get to spend time with you .
Cole : Yeah .
Starr : Huh .
Cole : Thanks for agreeing to come .
Starr : Do nt worry about it . Hmm .
Blair : Hey , sweetie .
Starr : Hey . I thought you were working tonight .
Blair : Well , I was , but I had a little meltdown , so I left early .
Starr : A meltdown ?
Blair : Yeah . I was just , you know , singing a song and then started thinking about your dad . I just -- I just kind of lost it a little .
Starr : Are you ok ?
Blair : Uh -- yeah . I just -- you know , I just did nt feel like letting it all hang out , you know , in front of a paying crowd tonight . So I thought I would just stop by Rodi s and have a drink . You know , I actually feel closer to your dad here .
Starr : Yeah , I know what you mean .
Blair : But I -- I do nt want to interrupt your date . Hey , Cole . I ll just go over , have a drink , and then I ll be on my way , ok ?
Starr : Ok . I m sorry .
Blair : It s ok , baby . It s ok .
Miles : Hello , Blair .
Blair : Is this a coincidence ?
Miles : No , not at all . We re having dinner tonight .
Blair : Huh .
Miles : Cole , Starr , my wife and I. Why do nt you join us ?
Blair : Are you out of your mind ?
Britney : What s little Starr doing out so late ?
Amber : Looks like a family gathering .
Girl : Yeah , of the creepy kind . Can you say Addams Family ?
Amber : Good one , Abigail .
Britney : Is nt fun the best thing to have ?
Amber : What are you going to do ?
Britney : I m going to mess with Cole s head , and he totally deserves it , seeing as how he s been lying to his girlfriend and keeping a secret about her missing father .
Todd : Oh , Blair .
David : Have you seen your daughter ? Her color looks better already .
Clint : As if you give a damn about my daughter . Greed is the only thing that motivates you .
David : I do nt like pain , and I use my liver pretty much daily . The thought of parting with even a portion of it --
Clint : Vickers , I m losing patience with you .
David : The money was a serious incentive -- so what ? I saved Jessica s life . Why ca nt I feel like I did something good ?
Clint : You want it both ways , do nt you ? You want to take the money and play the hero .
David : I told Jessica -- I m nobody s hero .
Clint : And this new self - awareness -- does that somehow absolve you ?
David : Money , Clint , is what I live for . Money does nt lie , money does nt betray you , so yeah , I did it for the money . And you got your daughter back . We both win . So , why do nt you consider the $ 10 million that s resting comfortably in an offshore account just a token of your undying appreciation ?
Starr : Mom , really , it s no big deal . Miles just invited me and Cole to dinner with Cole s mom .
Blair : Well , is nt that special ?
Miles : Come on , we really would like you to join us .
Blair : And you know what ? That s very sweet of you , Miles , but actually , being the fifth wheel is not my idea of a really good time . I think I m going to go to the bar , have an adult beverage , and , you , get home safely .
Marty : Ahem .
Miles : So , we d better get some menus . Has anyone seen a waitress ?
Britney : Wow . It really is a small world , after all .
Starr : What do you want , Britney ?
Britney : To talk to you , if that s ok .
Cole : No , it s not ok , so go back to your table , Britney .
Miles : Cole , where are your manners ?
Marty : Miles --
Miles : Well , if Britney wants to talk to her friend privately --
Cole : She s not Starr s friend .
Starr : No , really , it s cool . I ll only be a minute .
Marty : Oh , it s a patient . I have to take it . I wo nt be gone long , ok ?
Miles : Well , I m sure glad we re having dinner tonight , Cole .
Cole : Where are you hiding Starr s father now ? And you d better tell me he s ok .
Starr : What did you want to tell me , Britney ? It must be pretty important , since you dragged your whole pod squad here .
Britney : Hmm , do nt flatter yourself . I had no idea you d be here , but once I saw that you were , I just could nt hold this in any longer .
Starr : Hold what in ? What are you talking about ?
Britney : You know , every time I see you and Cole together , I see how tight you are , and it is so sweet , really . I mean , ever since your parents gave you guys the all - clear to date , your bond is just growing like crazy , huh ?
Starr : Ok , Britney , just cut the crap with me and be straight with me for once in your life .
Britney : You want me to be straight with you ? Cole is lying to you about something totally huge .
Rex : Michael asked me to meet him here for a drink . I think he s just surprised to see you here . Right , Michael ?
Michael : Yeah . Yeah , that and -- I got some stuff going on at home with Marcie .
John : This thing with Marcie , it s not serious , is it ?
Michael : Nothing we ca nt handle .
John : How s Jessica doing ?
Michael : She s doing good . She came through the surgery with flying colors .
John : That s good . That s good . Anything else ?
Michael : No . Just stopped by to have a drink with my buddy here , you know ? Shake off the day .
John : Having a drink with your buddy here ? You know , Mike , whatever it is you re hiding , whatever you got cooking , I promise you , it s going to come out sooner or later .
Michael : Yeah . Yeah , I guess it will .
Rex : Nice move .
Michael : Look , I m sorry , ok ? I saw you two talking , and I just --
Rex : What ? And of course you thought I was telling him Todd Manning was Tommy s biological father ? Yeah , no , in fact , I was thinking of telling a few other people in the restaurant . Hey , lady , you want to hear something that ll blow your --
Michael : All right , enough . Look , I overreacted , ok ? I m a little on edge , sorry .
Rex : And I overreacted to your overreaction . Sometimes it s like this secret is closing in on me .
Michael : That s why I asked you here . There s more to the story now .
Rex : More ? How ?
Michael : Marcie told me that she ca nt get pregnant . We can never have children of our own .
Rex : Oh . I m sorry . Is she ok ?
Michael : She s fine . I m the one who s not handling it . Now , she thinks that I m disappointed in her , and I m not . You know , I have no reason to be upset . I have a son . I have a beautiful son that I could nt love any more than I do .
Rex : What s the deal ? Why are you being a jerk about it ?
Michael : Whew . Because now , if anybody finds out that Tommy is really Todd Manning s son , and I knew the whole time , we ll lose our son . We ll lose the right to adopt ever again , and Marcie will never get the chance to be a mother -- so long as she s married to me .
David : Go ahead and hate me . That s ok , but take away this . Your daughter s going to be fine , and your father is nt going to go to prison for trying to pay me to kill my own brother . So the way I look at it , you got yourself a bargain .
Clint : You re despicable . But now you re also rich . Hope that money keeps you warm at night , because nothing else will .
David : Hey , Clint ? You going to tell Viki ?
Clint : Hmm . I ll let you have that honor .
Dorian : Clint .
Clint : You re still here .
Dorian : Well , I promised you I d wait .
Clint : Yeah . Uh --
Dorian : What s the matter ?
Clint : I just talked with David , and --
Dorian : Say no more . Go in and see your daughter . That ll make you feel better .
Clint : Thanks .
Clint : Oh . God , how I prayed for this . You re my precious little girl . And I love you so much .
Rex : Yes , yes , I -- I understand everything , and I see why you re projecting that all this bad stuff could happen , but you got to take it easy , dude . Nothing s changed .
Michael : Todd Manning is missing . That s not a change ? The guy goes looking for his kid and disappears ?
Rex : That does nt mean he s any closer to the truth .
Michael : But he will get closer when he comes back , and he will come back . He is going to start looking for his son , and he wo nt stop until he finds his little boy .
Rex : Michael --
Michael : Damn it ! You know , this guy s already got two kids . I know that sounds terrible . I know it does , and what I m about to say is going to sound even worse . But it s how I feel . The only way I will have peace or security is if Todd Manning stays missing . Forever .
Miles : I can not and will not tell you where Todd is .
Cole : What , you do nt trust me ?
Miles : No , it s not that you would tell somebody something intentionally , it -- in a moment of weakness , you might blurt it out , and then where would that leave us ? More importantly , where would that leave your mother ? We re trying to protect her .
Cole : It d be a lot easier to protect her if you would nt pull stuff like this .
Miles : Like what ?
Cole : Organizing a family dinner , making me bring Starr . Like things are nt awkward enough already .
Miles : Look , I was just trying to make things appear as normal as possible .
Cole : Normal ? We re so tense , we ca nt even make small talk . What s normal about any of this ?
Miles : What is the matter with you ?
Cole : Sorry . It was an accident .
Miles : You better calm down . Do you hear me ?
Cole : I spilled a glass of water . What is the big deal ?
Miles : The big deal is you re drawing attention to yourself . We ca nt have that .
Cole : Fine . I ll be more careful .
Miles : Yeah . And you will also stop obsessing about Todd Manning . Start acting like you re -- you re happy to be part of this new family .
Blair : What do you know about Todd ?
Starr : My boyfriend is hiding something from me ? Gee , I wonder what it could be . Is it -- is it that he has the hots for you ?
Britney : Do you think that this is a joke ?
Starr : No , but I think you are . You re always trying to convince me that he likes you .
Britney : My God , you are so bent . That s not what I m trying to make you think . This has nothing to do with me , and it s huge . It s going to completely warp everything you care about .
Starr : Do you know what s warped , Britney ? You are . You have so little going on in your life that you use all of your energy to try to annoy me , and it only makes me feel sorry for you .
Britney : You are going to eat those words , Starr Manning .
Starr : Why do nt you ? And choke on them . I m back .
Cole : What did Britney want ?
Starr : Nothing , I ll tell you about it later . What were you two talking about ?
Cole : Sports . I was telling Miles I think the Phillies are going to make a late charge .
Miles : Yeah .
Marty : I will see you next week . Bye .
Blair : Marty --
Marty : Oh , what do you want now ?
Blair : I want to know what Cole and Miles know about Todd .
Rex : I get why you want Todd to stay missing , but --
Michael : But you think I m sick .
Rex : I just think you --
Michael : I know what you think , ok , so just shut up . I do nt need you judging me . I know the way I feel is nt honorable . Todd Manning has two children that miss and love him very much , but guess what -- I have a life , too . I have a kid and a wife who need me , and Todd Manning could destroy all of that . I m sorry , I m not going to let it happen .
Sarah : Hey , guys .
Rex : Sarah , where the hell were you ?
Michael : I ll be in touch , Rex . Thanks .
Sarah : What was that all about ?
Rex : Seriously , Sarah , where d you go ?
Sarah : I went to the hospital to see if my cousin was ok .
Rex : You went to the hospital ? With the whole Buchanan clan marching around ? Not that I care , but I thought you said you did nt want to have anything to do with them .
Sarah : I hid . No one saw me . And Jessica s doing ok , thanks for asking . So , what s going on here ? Why were you talking to Michael McBain about Todd ?
Rex : None of your business . Next time you have plans to take off , maybe a little warning , would you ?
Sarah : I did nt know you cared .
Rex : I do nt .
Jessica : Hmm .
Nash : I checked on Bree . She s doing great . Misses her mom , but other than that --
Jessica : We re a family .
Nash : Forever .
Dorian : How s Jessica ?
Clint : Well , the doctors are all saying that she s doing very well .
Dorian : And you ?
Clint : Well , I m a little disappointed in myself . I allowed my anger at David to taint what should be a -- a wonderful , glorious day , because , you know , my daughter s getting another chance at life , and here I am resentful at the man who helped her get that chance , and -- I can do better . I will do better -- for Jessie , I mean , because I want my little girl to be proud of me .
Dorian : I m proud of you . And I am very grateful to have you in my life .
Clint : Dorian , whatever it took for us to get to this point , I thank God for it .
Dorian : Oh .
David : Take 1 million , play . Take another million , buy things to play in . Take 5 million for investments . That leaves -- oh , great , math is involved .
David : Well , well . Did nt know you cared . Hey , everybody , look who s here .
John : Just wanted to make sure you re still alive .
David : Well , that is great , because I am on some really good drugs , and I am not in the mood for a buzz kill of McBain proportions .
John : Hmm . Well , just remember , we got a killer to find . So get well soon , because your ass is mine until I say it is nt .
Marty : It s not enough that you storm into my house and accuse me of kidnapping Todd ? You re going to -- you re going to harass me in public ?
Blair : Ok , but , Marty , just shut up for a minute . I know you re not involved in all of this .
Marty : How ?
Blair : I just know , all right ?
Marty : Ok , well , that s great . Thanks . I m going to get back to my son now .
Blair : Now , Marty , just please , just listen to me just a minute . I also know that Miles seems a little bit too interested in putting on this united front with your son . What I think is the two of them may know something , and they re keeping it from you . I think we have an opportunity , actually , for the first time ever to work together . I can help you and Cole get away from Miles , and you can help me find Todd .
Todd : Son of a --
Officer : Better call in a repair crew .
Officer : Did you hear that ?
Todd : Help -- help .
John : We re going to get back to what we started -- finding the person who really killed Spencer Truman .
Blair : Are we in this together or not ?
Starr : She said that you were keeping this huge secret from me .
Miles : Todd ?

### Dialogue:
Jackie : Brooke . Brooke , talk to me , please . Tell me what you re feeling .
Brooke : I m just so -- stunned .
Jackie : Yeah , I know . Me , too . But I just want you to know -- that whatever you have to go through , you are not gon na go through it alone . Nicky and I , we re gon na be there for you . Whatever you need , honey . Oh , god , I know how upsetting this must be for you . But remember . We do nt know anything for certain yet .
Jackie : Dr. Paxson , she was calling to tell you about --
Brooke : No , I -- Jackie , I do nt think you understand . That call came from the hospital . Dr. Paxson is dead .
Samantha : Well , what do you think , captain ?
Nick : What do I think ? I could kiss you . I think I will kiss you .
Samantha : Whoa ! Hey ! Gratitude s one thing . Let s not go too far . It s just a crib , after all .
Nick : It s not just a crib -- it s the crib . This is -- look at this . It s a first mate s crib , huh ?
Samantha : Well , you said you wanted a nautical theme for the nursery . Well , the crib is why I came by . But I have some other really terrific things you have to see for the baby . Of course , I did nt know that I was gon na walk in on -- whatever I ve walked in on here . What have I walked in on ?
Nick : What do you mean what you walked in on ? You walked in on a crash course in fatherhood . Books -- you know , I got ta read up on all this . I m a sea captain . I do nt know what s going on . So I m reading , I m getting all the rules . I m also product testing . There s nothing going in my son s body that I do nt know what it tastes like , if it s good for him -- you know , health is the rage in this country now . So I make sure that I know what s in everything --
Samantha : Oh , this I ve got to see .
Nick : Well , no . It says it right here , it s just -- what is it ? Crushed peas , carrots and , you know , it s just baby --
Ridge : Thomas , I want you to listen to me --
Thomas : Dad , come on . If you re gon na tell me you ve given up on Brooke --
Ridge : I have nt given up . But I am backing away .
Thomas : What does that mean -- you re backing away ?
Ridge : It means she s not going to be the wife to me or the mother to you and the girls that she and I had hoped she d be -- given everything that s happened .
Thomas : But things can change . Especially if Brooke did nt sign those annulment papers , like I asked her not to .
Ridge : Son , I realize that you thought you were helping there --
Thomas : I had to try , dad . I mean -- just like I had to try with Uncle Nick . Because I know how much it would mean to them .
Ridge : To who ?
Thomas : To Steffy and Phoebe . They re not little kids anymore . They need a mom who they can talk to about -- you know , girl stuff . And they were doing that with Brooke . At least before -- I m just worried about them , okay ? I mean , you and I -- we re doing the best we can , but -- I just wish that kid were nt Nick s . Jackie ; What ? What did you say ?
Brooke : I m sorry . I assumed from the way you were talking that you already heard .
Jackie : Dr. Paxson is dead ?
Brooke : I m afraid so .
Jackie : How ? How did it happen ?
Brooke : There was a terrible car accident . I really do nt know much more than that .
Jackie : Brooke , are you sure ? I mean , it -- it could be just some horrible , horrible mistake --
Brooke : Her nurse phoned from the hospital . Dr. Paxson was on her way to see me when -- I m sorry , Jackie . I ca nt talk about this right now . I just ca nt .
Jackie : Oh , my God .
Ridge : Thomas , I worry about the girls , too . But we re still a family even though Brooke s not living here .
Thomas : I know . And you re awesome with them , Dad . It s just -- you ca nt do it all .
Ridge : That is why I have backup .
Thomas : Grandma .
Ridge : The rest of the Forrester clan -- you know , Dad , Thorne --
Thomas : Look , no offense -- but I can not see Thorne dishing with Steffy and Pheobe about the latest teen heartthrob or planning a slumber party --
Ridge : Right , all right . I get your point . I just do nt want you getting your hopes up for something that s not going to happen , though . I mean , Brooke s probably signed the annulment papers by now -- [ Doorbell rings ] Expecting someone ?
Thomas : You ?
Ridge : No , and I m not really in the mood to see anybody either .
Thomas : I ll get rid of em . Dad and I were just -- I knew you could nt do it . I knew you could nt sign those papers--
Brooke : Thomas , please -- I need to see your father right away . Thomas sure . Of course .
Ridge : Brooke , what are you doing here ?
Thomas : Is nt it obvious ? She came because --
Ridge : Look , I know you re upset about the annulment papers --
Brooke : Yes -- yes , but there s something else . Something that you need to know . If you have nt heard already ?
Ridge : Heard what ?
Brooke : There s been a car accident . Dr. Paxson s dead .
Ridge : What ?
Brooke : It happened when she was coming over to see me . Oh God , Ridge , I ca nt believe she s gone .
Nick : Lotions , powders and all those -- oh , check this thing out . This thing is really cool .
Samantha : What is it ?
Nick : You do nt know what this is ?
Samantha : I do nt think you know what that is .
Nick : Oh , I know what this is . I know exactly what this is . It s like a suction thing -- you know , when a kid s nose is all runny you just stick it up there and suck it right out . No , you have to , because they ca nt blow their nose . They ca nt wipe their nose . That s why you got ta do that for them . You just suck it out and do it for em , huh ?
Samantha : Yeah .
Nick : Pretty disgusting .
Samantha : Oh well , that why babies need loving parents . And you know , Nick Payne , I think you re gon na be one of the best .
Jackie : Dead . That s what Brooke said . Dr. Paxson is dead . A car accident before she even got to Brooke s . Which means that -- Brooke does nt know there s a chance that Ridge could be the father of her baby . Oh , Nicky -- Nicky . If this baby is nt yours -- I just ca nt even imagine how crushed you d be .
Hudson : Well , I m off to see Massimo s new foal that was born this morning . Do nt think I should be long . I ve been assured by the veterinarian that -- Jackie ? What is it ? What s the matter ?
Jackie : I ve just heard some terrible news . Nicky s going to be devastated .
Hudson : Poor dr . Paxson . How terribly , terribly sad .
Jackie : I ca nt believe it . I do nt want to believe it . I have to tell Nicky . He has to hear it from me .
Hudson : I did nt realize Dominick was that close to the doctor . Jackie , perhaps you should sit down . This news is obviously taking a toll .
Jackie : I have to get to Nicky right away . He has to hear it from me -- he has to .
Hudson : You re still very upset . Why do nt I drive you ?
Jackie : No . No , I have to do this alone . I have to do it alone , Hudson .
Ridge : Brooke , it was an accident . I hope you re not blaming yourself .
Brooke : She was on the way to see me .
Ridge : How do you know that ?
Brooke : She left me a message , and when I called her back , she said she needed to stop by and talk to me .
Ridge : You know what about ?
Brooke : She did nt say . I thought it might be about my baby , but she assured me that my little boy s just fine .
Ridge : Oh , thank God . Still , she must have had a reason . Unfortunately , we may never know what it was .
Thomas : Look , Brooke , I m sorry , okay ? For bombarding you off the bat like that . It s just --
Brooke : It s all right , Thomas . I understand . Thomas yeah , well , I wish I did . Because all I really understand right now is how much we miss you around here . Right , Dad ?
Samantha : Where do you find this ?
Nick : It s a speed boat . No , it is , see ?
Samantha : Yeah , I see that .
Nick : It s just missing a crew .
Samantha : Speaking of crews -- mine is going to be back over in the morning to continue making the place a little bit more baby - friendly . But come here . You ve got ta see how cute this is . Look at this .
Nick : Oh my god -- this kid does nt have a chance . Look at this .
Samantha : Well , you want him to follow in his dad s and his granddad s footsteps . There s nothing wrong with that .
Nick : I do nt care what he does . I just hope he s a happy boy .
Samanth : Really ?
Nick : Mm - hmm .
Samantha : You know , you never cease to amaze me , Nick .
Nick : Well , you re pretty amazing yourself , you know Samantha . You really came through for me , thank you . This whole place is , I -- hard to describe . You re good at it . You re good at the family , the whole kid thing . You ever think of having a little rugrat yourself ?
Samantha : You know , I d better scoot , uh --
Samantha : Look at that , probably somebody else bringing you good news . You have to admit , you ve kinda been on a roll lately .
Ridge : That s my son -- Mr. Subtle .
Thomas : Hey , you ve always told us to say what we feel . And this is what my sisters and I feel . This house is not the same without Brooke here -- and hope .
Ridge : Thomas , maybe this is nt the right time to get into --
Thomas : To what ? To what , Dad ? You do nt want me to tell Brooke how much she means to us ? Or how when she was living here we felt like a real family for the first time since Mmom died ? You do nt want her to know how special that felt for us and how unfair it feels to be over ? Well , I m sorry . I ca nt just stand here and pretend like it did nt mean anything ! Because it did -- in a huge way ! That s why I went to uncle Nick s after I left your office tonight and tried to convince him to give up the baby . Because I thought if he understood how much we need you -- look , I get that all this is complicated . But more than anything -- I get how much having you as their mother means to Pheobe and Steffy . And now there s this empty space inside of their hearts like there was when mom died . They need you , Brooke . We all need you .
Brooke : I feel the same way , Thomas , but just because I m not living here does nt mean that I love you and the girls any less . I will always be here for you . No , it wo nt be the way it was . Or the way it would have been if things had worked out the way we wanted . Still , you will always have the best Mother ever -- Taylor . You re everything that Taylor would ve wanted in a son . And do nt you forget it .
Thomas : I still miss her a lot .
Brooke : Of course you do .
Thomas : But now she s gone and you re gone , and -- if I ca nt have my Mom back I just wish it could be you . I wish there was some way we could find a way to have you raise your baby with us so we could be a real family again .
Jackie : I did nt mean to run Samantha off .
Nick : Of course you did . That s the only way you can have me all to yourself .
Jackie : Nicky , this is nt the time for that kind of --
Nick : Mother , please . Let s not be transparent . You re a bit transparent -- at least to me anyway .
Jackie : Transparent ?
Nick : Yeah . You do nt think I do nt know why you re here ? You knew Samantha was coming over here with all the goodies -- all the grandchild toys and stuff , and it was just eating you up inside , was nt it ? It was killing you , cause you wanted to come over and see all the things you re gon na get to do . And look at this crib -- look at this .
Jackie : Very nice .
Nick : Very nice ? This is a sea captain s dream for his kid . Look at the flag here . The Marone flag , huh ? The old man s buttons are gon na pop off , are nt they ? Oh , yeah . We got it all set up here . There ll be some good sleeping going on in there . We got -- look at this -- see ? How bout that ? You know what that s for right ? This is when they really get cranky , you kinda rock em in that . Think I m gon na spoil you , do nt you ? Not gon na . I might spoil you . I think I may spoil you just a little bit . I wish little Thomas would be able to see things differently .
Jackie : What did you say ?
Nick : Thomas Forrester , ridge s son , paid me a little visit and asked me to give the boy up for adoption so Ridge and Brooke could raise the child with Thomas and his sisters . I hate what they have to go through . I -- I could see the pain in his eyes . This is my flesh and blood though , Mother . You know , this is my -- my son . I have nt even seen this child s face yet , and I already feel how much I love him . I can feel what it s like to be a father . What s the matter ?
Jackie : Oh , Nicky . Sweetheart , I wish -- with all my heart I wish I did nt have to tell you this .
Nick : Tell me what ? What is it ? What s wrong ?
Jackie : Something terrible has happened . Something you have to know .

### Dialogue:
Summer : Clark .
Clark : Aww , you remember me , after all that time .
Summer : How d you find me ?
Clark : Well , you know , it s funny what I can do when there s a whole lot of money on the line .
Maggie : That reminds me .
Victor : Hmm ?
Maggie : I have to call Summer and let her know that we re here .
Victor : Oh , she ll find you . She has you on her emotional GPS .
Maggie : I know you do nt like the idea of her living with us .
Victor : Au contraire . I think the presence of a neurotic grifter will only enhance our suburban townhouse fun .
Maggie : I do nt talk about your children like that .
Victor : Well , you do nt have to . I do .
Maggie : You have a point . I do nt mean to be sentimental , but I do need help . And if , in the process , summer begins to believe that I really do regret having given her up , then maybe I wo nt feel so damn guilty .
Victor : You were 17 years old . You were alone in the world . You have nothing to feel guilty about .
Maggie : Victor , remember when you said that you would do anything for me ? So what if you just pretend that whatever I want is all right with you ? And what if -- how do I put it-- you kept your big mouth shut ?
Victor : You ask a lot , lady . You know , I ca nt wait to get to know summer better . I m interested in her thoughts on Aristotle s theories of virtue .
Maggie : Who was on the phone ?
Victor : Justin wanted to know how we were adjusting to our reduced circumstances .
Maggie : And that was all ?
Victor : We talked about a trip to the outlet mall .
Maggie : Damn it , do nt lie to me . It was about Deimos , was nt it ?
Kate : I asked a question .
Deimos : And to answer your question , Nicole and I were conducting a little business .
Kate : You re intending for her to talk over basic black ?
Nicole : Hi , Kate .
Kate : Hi . Do you think you should have talked to me about it first-- your partner ? Because if you had , I could ve saved you some time . I could ve told you that Nicole would nt be interested because she has a company of her own to run .
Deimos : Thank you for getting me up to speed . So how about this ? Titan buys DJ wear . That is the name of your company , is nt it ?
Nicole : Yes , it is .
Deimos : Good . So I ll buy DJ wear ; fold it into Titan . That way we ll all be one big , happy family . So , Nicole , what do you say ?
Victor : Remember , you re not supposed to get agitated .
Maggie : You re the one who s not supposed to get agitated .
Victor : Maggie , it s so unlike you to be suspicious . Justin just wanted to know how we were doing .
Maggie : And to give you a report on Deimos .
Victor : Why would you even think that ?
Maggie : Because you lost your business and your home . And while 99 % of the people on this earth would be thrilled to live in this townhouse , you find it humiliating . Put together that list that you hate . It s not half as much as you hate seeing me in this chair . And all of that -- all of that is because of Deimos . And you re not about to let him get away with that .
Victor : In the oresteia--
Maggie : Oh , do nt start with the Greek crap !
Victor : It s not crap . It s right to the point . It s about two brothers who hated each other . And because of that hate , brothers killed brothers . Wives killed husbands . Sons killed mothers . And it would still be going on today if it were nt for the deus ex machina . I had to let Deimos get away with it so that my family would nt end up like the house of atreus .
Maggie : And did any of those nice people lie , like you re lying to me right now ?
Victor : I am not lying .
Maggie : Well , you know , when you keep going on and on about the dead Greeks without answering my question , without looking me in the eye , I know you re lying .
Victor : Here s me looking you in the eye . I am not out to take revenge on Deimos .
Julie : Hello , Victor . We just popped by to see how you two are doing .
Victor : Swimmingly .
Maggie : Could nt be better .
Nicole : You want me and my company ?
Deimos : Well , acquiring DJ wear is what I would call a bonus . I want both , but what I really want is you .
Nicole : [ Laughing ] Oh . Well , I m sure Kate would agree that s very flattering .
Kate : That s super flattering .
Nicole : Well , no one s mentioned money or -- or how this would all work .
Deimos : Okay , the way I see it , DJ wear has its own identity , and I think it should stay that way . Therefore , you would be upped to running the basic black division .
Nicole : And I would be answering to you ?
Deimos : To me and to Kate . Now , about money ...
Nicole : Really ?
Deimos : Mm - hmm . Oh , hold on a minute . A little oversight . I forgot a zero .
Nicole : Well , I -- I have a lot to think about .
Kate : Well , you should take your time .
Deimos : Yes , you should . I understand that you have partners .
Nicole : I ll be in touch .
Deimos : Great .
Nicole : And I -- I do have to say , your offer is intriguing .
Deimos : Excellent .
Nicole : Bye , Kate .
Kate : Bye .
Nicole : Excuse me .
Kate : So let me get this straight . Skipping over her incompetence , you re putting a woman who despises me in charge of basic black .
Deimos : Are you questioning my authority ?
Kate : I m questioning a lot more than that .
Deimos : [ Laughing ]
Kate : What s so funny ?
Deimos : I never would have imagined that you d be the jealous type .
Summer : Please , come in .
Clark : Planning a trip ? I mean , you did nt know I was coming , so what s the hurry ?
Summer : No hurry . I m just moving .
Clark : Someplace nicer ? Someplace ritzier ?
Summer : I do nt see what difference that makes .
Clark : Knock it off , Cindi . It s me , Clarky . And I m guessing that you found yourself a new mark . And I think you re about ready to make your move .
Brady : Theresa , how did this get to be all about summer ?
Theresa : It did nt get to be about summer . It still is about summer , because this whole issue with summer was never resolved .
Brady : Resolved -- oh , because resolved -- resolved is code for me saying , Theresa , you re right about everything . Summer s bad . I m nuts , and you re the only clear - thinking person on the planet .
Theresa : I truly believe that I am thinking clearer than you on this one thing .
Brady : I truly believe that if Maggie had had a son and that summer was nt a woman ...
Theresa : [ Sighs ]
Brady : This conversation would have been over a long , long , long time ago .
Theresa : I get it , Brady . You re mad , okay ?
Brady : I m not . I m not mad at you . I m frustrated , because I -- I go to bed with you . I wake up with you . I m raising my son with you . I m doing everything with you , Theresa . And I go and help somebody , whether it s Maggie , grandfather , summer , whoever it is -- I m always coming back to you .
Theresa : And Brady , I do nt like being--
Brady : Is nt that enough for you ?
Theresa : I do nt like being like this , okay ? I m not jealous . I m just worried , okay ? I do nt trust summer , but that s not unwarranted .
Brady : It s a beautiful day out here . And I have a beautiful woman right in front of me .
Theresa : [ Laughing ]
Brady : Can we just soak up all this beauty and-- and just be happy ? Can we not talk about summer ? Let s not talk about her .
Theresa : You re right .
Brady : I m sorry , what ?
Theresa : [ Laughing ]
Brady : You said I was right .
Theresa : I said -- I said you re right , yes .
Brady : But you do nt think that , do you ?
Theresa : I think that you re right that we should nt waste the time we have together on summer . Brady , when I thought I was gon na lose you , all I wanted was for the three of us to be together . And I have that .
Brady : Excuse me -- we have it . We have it .
Nicole : Brady , hey , there you are .
Brady : Hi .
Nicole : I need your help .
Kate : Of course you re right . Just because I do nt want you to hire a neurotic , unstable woman who screws up everything she puts her hands on-- no , I must be jealous . I mean , it could nt possibly be because I know Nicole , and I know how epic her failures have been .
Deimos : Hmm , is that why you went into business with her ?
Kate : You ll notice it did nt last very long .
Deimos : Did you not hear how I set up the corporate structure -- how Nicole would be answering directly to you ? And has it ever occurred to you that bringing her into Titan might be the best way to keep an eye on her ?
Kate : Really ? Is that your only motive ?
Deimos : No . Nicole has been a presence ever since that night she came here when Victor was having his heart attack . It would be foolish of me not to wonder why -- and even more foolish for me not to do something about it .
Kate : I see . So you gave her power and lots of money . You really fixed her wagon .
Deimos : Are you sure you re not jealous ?
Kate : No , I m just disappointed .
Deimos : All right , fine . You re not jealous . It s all in my imagination . But still , it excites me .
Kate : No . You re not going to use sex to end this argument .
Deimos : And why not ? If it were reversed , you would . And you d have me exactly where you wanted me .
Kate : You re right . I would .
Nicole : There is an offer on the table . Deimos wants to buy DJ wear and fold it into Titan .
Theresa : But Kate is the co - CEO of Titan , which means we d be answering to her . I thought the whole idea of starting our own company was to get away from that bitch .
Nicole : That was yesterday .
Theresa : [ Sighs ]
Nicole : This is today . Okay , but the other part of this deal is , I would have control of basic black , which means you have the freedom to run DJ wear any way you want .
Theresa : I m already running it the way I want .
Brady : Let s stop -- why dont -- why do nt we stop , right now , pretending , okay ? The only reason you re proposing this , Nicole , is because it s your way in with Deimos . This whole thing is about you and Victor going after him . And I will repeat , it s a disaster waiting to happen . The reason he s making this offer is because he has a motive . It s a test . Do you not see that ?
Nicole : I know what I m doing , Brady , test or not .
Brady : What if you fail the test , Nicole ? What if you end up like Maggie-- or worse ?
Victor : Would , uh , anyone like a drink ?
Maggie : Your answer to everything .
Julie : It s a bit early in the day .
Victor : Caroline ?
Caroline : Uh , maybe some tea .
Julie : Oh , that would be lovely . I always feel like the queen of England when Henderson serves us tea .
Victor : He ai nt here .
Caroline : What s wrong with him ?
Maggie : Nothing .
Julie : Well , come to think of it , what s wrong with you , Maggie , darling ? You could cut the atmosphere in this room with a knife .
Caroline : Well , speaking of rooms , what -- what are we doing in this room ?
Julie : Are you redecorating the mansion ?
Maggie : You do nt know ? Victor lost the mansion . And Titan and everything else .
Caroline : Oh , my g-- Deimos ?
Maggie : Yes , Deimos . He poisoned me . He made Victor hand over everything in exchange for the antidote . So Deimos is the reason I m in this chair . I fell down the steps because of the poison .
Caroline : That son of a bitch .
Julie : Why did nt you go to the police ?
Maggie : Ask Victor that one .
Caroline : Oh , it s because he wants to take care of it himself , and he s not gon na stop until Deimos is stopped .
Kate : [ Sighs ]
Deimos : Mmm , I think we need to fight a lot more . I like our version of anger management .
Kate : [ Sighs ] Be careful what you wish for . I m not someone that you want to have angry at you . Just ask around .
Deimos : Mmm . I think I m happy to take my chances . Mmm ...
Deimos : One minute . Hold that thought .
Deimos : Kiriakis . Terrific , I ll be right there . I m sorry , I have to go .
Kate : I ll get dressed . I ll come with you .
Deimos : No , no , no . Stay put . This wo nt take long . I ll be back before you know it . Mmm .
Summer : Do nt call me Cindi .
Clark : Oh , that s right . You re summer now . Well , you can call me the ides of march .
Summer : I have so missed your wit .
Clark : Good choice , though . Summer , so full of sunshine and optimism . Perfect name for a manic depressive .
Summer : I can see you have nt changed a bit . You re still a jerk .
Clark : Honey , you could call yourself lollipops and roses . You still make Kurt Cobain seem upbeat .
Summer : What the hell are you doing here , Clark ?
Clark : Oh , you should have figured that out by now , summer . You owe me , and you have for a while . And now the bill s due .
Nicole : Uh , okay , you know what ? We re getting off point here . There is an offer for our company on the table -- a very generous one . And we d be fools not to think of the -- the upside of this , no matter what Deimos is up to . Look-- all , right , look . Look at this offer .
Brady : So what ? The guy s got money to burn .
Nicole : And because he does , we could double our money , and you two are spitting on it . Look , it s gon na be a long , rocky road before DJ wear establishes a toehold in this industry . This would just smooth out that road and speed things up .
Theresa : Yeah , but we d be working with Kate and Deimos . To call them snakes would be an insult to snakes .
Nicole : You re taking this personally . It s just business , Theresa .
Brady : No , it s not . It is personal .
Nicole : All I know is , I m working with two people who could nt be more short- sighted .
Theresa : Well , you know what ? If it s such a trial for you to work with us , then let us buy you out .
Nicole : Yeah , okay , um , maybe -- maybe we should talk about that .
Brady : You re getting in way too deep with this psychopath , and I do nt know if I m gon na be able to help you get out of it . Hey , hey , look at me -- listen . I know you like Maggie . I get it . I do too ; I love her . And maybe that is enough of an excuse for you to get into bed with grandfather and -- and do his bidding , even though you despise him . I do nt know . Maybe ? What other reason could there be ?
Summer : Dario , hey , uh , call me as soon as you can . I have to talk to you .
Brady : You ca nt underestimate Deimos , okay ? Look what he did to Maggie , just --just to get back at Victor . Brady , he s not gon na poison me .
Brady : [ Stammering ] Listen , I m not supposed to tell you this , but grandfather does nt even need you .
Nicole : What ?
Brady : There s another plan . There is another plan to bring Deimos down . At the most , you re a diversion , Nicole . For God sakes , if that s not a reason to just walk away from this , I do nt know what is . Please , before you get in too deep , just walk away and get out of this . How do I know you re not just saying that to get me to back off ?
Brady : Because I would nt lie to you , that s why .
Nicole : Unless you re just protecting me .
Brady : Nicole , I m serious . I m serious . I m telling you the truth .
Nicole : Well , maybe I ll just prove you and Victor wrong . Maybe I m better than just a diversion .
Brady : [ Sighs ]
Kate : Oh .
Deimos : Kate ? I m back . Hey . Amber assumed it was a mirror .
Victor : You told them about Deimos .
Maggie : They re my friends . I needed to be honest with them .
Victor : I heard what you said , Caroline , but you re wrong . I hate what Deimos did , but I m not seeking revenge . I do nt want to make things worse than they already are .
Caroline : Wha -- Maggie ? Are you buying that ?
Maggie : No .
Victor : Maggie , this is not a conversation I d like to have in front of Caroline and Julie . I wish you had nt brought it up .
Caroline : Damn it , Victor , she s worried . She has every right to be worried . Look at what Deimos has done so far . Who knows what he s gon na do . He is a demon . And demons never stop .
Victor : Well , I guess I d best steer clear of him , then . Right ? For both our sakes .
Nicole : It s me .
Victor : Why are you calling ? Did something happen ?
Nicole : No , I just wanted to let you know that I m still in it . It s a cat and mouse game with Deimos , and I think I have the upper hand .
Victor : Good to hear . Keep me posted .
Nicole : Okay .
Kate : Kind of explains your interest in Nicole . Not much of a reason for jealousy .
Deimos : Oh , I do nt know about that . This is a woman I once loved .
Kate : Well , Nicole may look like her , but it does nt mean that she s anything like her .
Deimos : Even so , I m not convinced that you would nt have been better off had you never seen this picture .
Theresa : I guess from the way Nicole tore out of here , she did nt listen to reason .
Brady : Nope , I--
Theresa : She s still going after Deimos .
Brady : I can not seem to get to her .
Theresa : Hey , listen . If she wants to help Victor and get in bed with the man who almost killed Maggie , then there s nothing you can do .
Brady : [ Sighs ] It s summer .
Theresa : [ Laughs ] Calling 1 - 800-lancelot .
Brady : [ Sighs ] Summer .
Summer : Oh , my God . I am so glad you answered . I -- but Brady , I -- I m in trouble --like , real trouble-- and I ca nt talk on the phone .
Brady : Okay , first of all , slow down .
Theresa : Can I see you , like -- like now ? It has to be right now .
Brady : Can you tell me what s wrong ?
Theresa : Mercury s in retrograde . It s freaking her out .
Summer : I would nt ask if it was nt urgent . Brady , I m scared .
Brady : Ill -- Ill meet you at the square . I know you do nt want me to go .
Theresa : Hey , summer snapped her fingers . What choice do you have ?
Brady : [ Sighs ] Theresa , I -- I brought her here to Salem .
Theresa : Yeah .
Brady : She s asked me for my help .
Theresa : And she took that ball and ran with it .
Brady : All right , you -- I mean , you think she s playing me , right ? I do nt believe she is , but there s only one way to find out . I m gon na put her to the test , okay ?
Theresa : Who s grading that test , huh ? You ? She s fooled you once before , you know .
Brady : And I ll always have you to remind me about that . Hey , I will be back .
Victor : I think we ve talked enough about my brother . Maggie s getting tired .
Maggie : Maggie s getting angry .
Julie : Uh--[Clears throat ] Victor s right . Uh , we do nt want to tire Maggie out .
Maggie : Julie , Caroline , I need my friends . I need you to come back .
Caroline : Oh , no matter how Victor feels , you got it .
Julie : See you tomorrow , darling .
Maggie : All right , darling , thank you .
Julie : And Victor , thanks for that tea .
Caroline : Okay . Ugh . [ Sighs ]
Victor : Caroline ?
Caroline : Yes ?
Victor : Touch my hand . You sense anything ? Are you still getting your visions ?
Caroline : Victor , I m sorry . My visions have stopped .
Victor : When ?
Caroline : The night you had a heart attack .
Nicole : Hello ? Is the man of the house around ? I believe he s expecting me . Remember , there s a proposition on the table ?
Kate : Yes , yes , I m aware .
Nicole : Kate , why do I get the feeling you re not happy about any of this ?
Kate : I know all about Helena . I know exactly what Deimos sees in you , and it s not your executive abilities .
Nicole : Yes , I look like someone from his past -- someone who exerts a good amount of control over his life , still . Look what he did to Victor in her name . So I m just saying , it puts you in a pretty tenuous position around here .
Brady : Hey , what s going on ? What could nt you tell me on the phone ?
Summer : Brady , I m in trouble -- real trouble . I did not expect this .
Brady : Expect what ?
Summer : This guy shows up at my door just now -- someone from my past that I did nt think I would ever see again . He tracked me down , and I need help to get him to go away .
Brady : Okay , stop , stop . What kind of help ?
Summer : I need money .
Brady : Why ?
Summer : [ Sighs ]
Brady : Why ?
Summer : Can I please not tell you ? Can you please just -- just help me and trust me that all this is gon na go away if you just do as I ask ?
Brady : No , no , absolutely not . You have to tell me what s going on . Summer , summer , come on . I -- look , I want to trust you . I do . But you ca nt throw this on me . You ca nt say , I need money and then just clam up like this . I m -- I m sorry , I ca nt give you a cent until you tell me what the money s for and who this guy is . Tell me .
Summer : I robbed him . I was a con artist , and he was my mark .
Kate : Tenuous . Really ?
Nicole : After 30 years in prison , as soon as he was free , he went nonstop to Salem , knocked on Victor s door , and destroyed his life because of that woman . So you re right . Deimos is nt shallow . He s obsessed .
Kate : With Helena , not you .
Nicole : Okay , I m gon na back up here . It is my executive abilities that led Deimos to offer me the moon for a company that s only been around for three months . So you re screwed -- or , in a tenuous position .
Kate : You know , he s been very , very candid with me . And he wants to bring you into the tent so he can keep his eye on you -- so you ll be there under his thumb -- because he does nt trust you .
Nicole : Kate , why am I getting the strange feeling of déjà vu ? I know I took his brother away from you so many years ago . Victor moved out of your bed and into mine . That kind of history will not repeat itself .
Deimos : Nicole . I thought I heard your voice .
Nicole : I m here to take you up on your offer .
Deimos : Terrific . Why do nt you follow me into my study , and we ll go over the details ?
Theresa : Well , what a surprise . It s just the two of us . You remember summer , do nt you ? Surfer girl with the whistle only daddy can hear ? I d like to dump her onto Mulholland drive where she belongs . [ Laughs ] Ive -- Ive really tried to get through to daddy , but he s just not listening . Ca nt let you slip away
Theresa : Maybe I need backup . Yeah , think so ? I m gon na make you stay
Theresa : [ Sighs ]
Theresa : John , um , it s Theresa . Listen , I hope it s okay to call you , but I really need you to call me back as soon as possible . It s about Brady . I m worried . [ Sighs ]
Victor : I hope this is all right . If not , I ll go out and get you something from TBD .
Maggie : I m sure it s fine .
Victor : Well , Maggie , I m sorry about this morning . I was a real jerk . With everything you re going through , the last thing you need is me to be in a mood .
Maggie : I m sorry that I talked to Caroline and Julie .
Victor : No , you re right . You have every right to talk to them . Tell them whatever you want .
Maggie : I was gon na say that I m sorry I did nt let you know what I was gon na do . It must have seemed like I was talking behind your back .
Victor : No , I know you would nt do that .
Maggie : Victor , I do nt want us to be at odds . I mean , if we ca nt deal with all of this together , Deimos has -- he s really won .
Victor : Right . Well , we just wo nt talk about him .
Maggie : [ Laughs ] Like that s gon na happen .
Victor : You were on the phone . Was it , uh , summer ?
Maggie : Yeah . I mean , no , I left a voice message . You know , it s funny . She was so anxious about moving in with us . I mean , I -- I thought she would have shown up by now .
Brady : You were a con artist ?
Summer : I was afraid to tell you . I told Maggie . You have been such a great friend , and you believed in me when I did nt believe in myself . And I did nt want to disappoint you .
Brady : But Maggie does know .
Summer : She was really nice about it . Look , Brady , this was many years ago , and I was -- at least I hope I was a different person then .
Brady : [ Sighs ] And this guy ? Who s this guy ?
Summer : He was my biggest score . I made ends meet for a very long time off the money I made from him .
Brady : Well , I take it , then , this is nt some $ 100 scam-- something you pulled off at a racetrack .
Summer : No , it was more complicated than that . Look , I know how all this sounds , and you can judge me all that you want . But , Brady , I really need your help right now . This guy says -- and I know that he means it -- that if I do not pay him back , he s gon na go to the cops , to the feds -- anything it takes to -- to put me in jail . [ Sighs ] And wh -- just when it looks like everything is turning around for me , he shows up .
Brady : Summer . How much are we talking about here ?
Summer : $ 50,000 .

### Dialogue:
Ridge : You re worried about me ? Come on , Mother .
Stephanie : Well , it s all over the street about your Dare campaign . I - I think I know what you were up to . I m sorry it did nt work .
Ridge : Yeah , we took one hell of a chance with that , but we came so close .
Stephanie : What s your next idea ?
Ridge : I do nt really know , but we are gon na get this company back . It s the only reason I stayed on here , that and my kids .
Stephanie : And how are they ?
Ridge : Thomas is working his tail off , and Steffy , uh ...
Stephanie : And Steffy ?
Ridge : She s gon na start a new P.R. campaign ...

Ridge : To replace the Dare line .
Stephanie : Mm - hmm .
Ridge : She really needs this . She s been going through kind of a rough time lately .
Steffy : And so I present to you ... Hollywood glamour-- the after party .
Katie : Interesting . So you want to stick with the same concept .
Steffy : Not exactly , but yes , it s a -- it s a version of Hollywood Glamour , which was very successful for us .
Brooke : Sounds like it could be cost - effective .
Steffy : And it ll give us a quick turnaround .
Katie : Which we need , since we wasted so much time and money on the Dare line .
Steffy : Well , we already have the Hollywood Glamour template . Let s -- let s use it and take it in a whole new direction . The premieres , the toasts-- we ve covered that . It s time for the after party where the glamour really begins . ( Door opens )
Hope : Hey , guys . Sorry I m late .
Katie : Oh , that s okay . Come on in , Hope . I asked hope to join us .
Steffy : What s all that ?
Hope : Oh , just something I threw together .
Katie : We can talk about that after your presentation . Uh , would you like to continue , Steffy ?
Steffy : Yeah , right . Uh , yeah . ( Clears throat )
Whip : Well , hey , Coz . Uh , Bridget and Nick are in a meeting , but they should nt be too long .
Sandy : That s okay . I did nt come to see them . Um , I came to see you .
Whip : Well , well , come in . Come in . ( Laughs ) What , uh ... what can I do for you ?
Sandy : You can start by forgiving me . I ve treated you really badly , Whip . I m really pretty ashamed of myself .
Whip : Well , do nt be . Youve -- youve been going through something .
Sandy : Yeah , but to take it out on you , of all people--
Whip : Hey , what good are cousins if you ca nt give them a little grief now and then , right ?
Sandy : ( Laughs )
Whip : So ... how are you ?
Sandy : I m good . I m better .
Whip : Yeah ?
Sandy : I m much better .
Whip : Good . Yeah , you seem to be . I m glad .
Sandy : Whip , I want to talk to you about what happened , about why Ive -- Ive been so distant with you .
Whip : I ve been worried about you , Aggie .
Whip : This has to do with a guy , does nt it ?
Sandy : Yeah . Yeah . This definitely has to do with a guy .
Man : Um , ex - excuse me .
Madison : Wow . I mean , yes ?
Man : Um , I m here to meet with Steffy Forrester .
Madison : Oh , right . Graham Darros , right ?
Graham : Yeah . Yeah , that s me .
Madison : Steffy s in a meeting right now , but she will let me know when she s ready for you .
Graham : Okay . Thanks .
Madison : Hi , Taylor .
Taylor : Is Steffy in her presentation ?
Madison : Yeah . She was really excited .
Taylor : Oh , I hope it goes well .
Graham : Excuse me . Are you a friend of Steffy s ?
Taylor : I m her mother .
Graham : You re kidding . What , did you have her when you were 12 ?
Taylor : Who is this guy ? I like him already , and I do nt even know his name . I m -- I m Taylor .
Graham : Taylor , I m Graham . Nice to meet you .
Steffy : And if we hurry , we can introduce the line at the height of Hollywood party season . Imagine it-- the whole world focused on the Oscars , the stars and what they re wearing as we re rolling out the After Party line . Hundreds of millions of people watch the Oscars and the after parties , and what are they looking at ? Fashion . And I ll make sure our designs are front and center .
Donna : It s very impressive .
Brooke : You ve turned this around quickly . ( Sighs ) Nice job .
Steffy : Thank you .
Katie : Yes , really , good work . But I do have one question-- in our last collection , the Hollywood Glamour line , we had cocktail dresses , so how does this differ from what we ve just done ?
Sandy : It was the -- the night that I had my head shots done at the party after .
Whip : Five years or so ago . Yeah , I was there .
Sandy : And then you left .
Whip : Something happened after I left ?
Sandy : I was given a drink , um ... tequila , I think . It was drugged . And -- and when I woke up a lot of hours later ... I was really messed up . ( Inhales sharply )
Whip : Who , Aggie ?
Sandy : ( Sniffles ) I do nt know . I do nt know . ( Laughs ) I went to the hospital , and they took D.N.A. tests , and the police were brought in .
Whip : Just tell me that they caught him , okay ?
Sandy : ( Sniffles )
Whip : Tell me-- tell me they caught the guy .
Sandy : No . He s still out there somewhere .
Stephanie : I think about Eric and you and your brother and your sister working so hard to make this company a success , and I m really worried that your children are not going to get their due .
Ridge : My kids have always believed that there s a legacy here at Forrester for them .
Stephanie : Well , there should be , and there would be if it were nt for the Logan girls .
Ridge : All right , please tell me you re not here to beat up Brooke and her sisters .
Stephanie : I m not here to beat up anybody . I m here to support you , but you ve got to face the reality . The three of them are running the company . You ca nt deny that .
Ridge : That s gon na change .
Stephanie : Oh , really ? Before or after they bring the rest of the clan over and take the business over completely ?
Katie : I mean , do you understand what I m saying ? As prepared as you are , this seems a little like a retread .
Steffy : Hollywood Glamour was a retro look at classic Hollywood fashion . But the After Party is -- is a piping hot modern collection of dresses designed for the youth market that we re after .
Katie : There are rumors circulating everywhere about this daring breakout collection that we suddenly canceled . E - Everyone is clamoring to see what we re gon na do next . I mean , how is it gon na look if we just reload Hollywood Glamour and pass it off as our brilliant new campaign ?
Steffy : ( Sighs )
Brooke : Katie has a point . Even if it were terrific , people will talk .
Steffy : They ll talk about how incredible it is . We re appealing to a whole new demographic . The print ads , the media-- it ll all be different .
Katie : How are you gon na accomplish that ?
Steffy : I want you to meet someone . Madison , could you let in Graham ? Thank you .
Graham : Taylor .
Brooke : Taylor , what are you doing here ?
Taylor : Well , I was waiting outside for Steffy , and he invited me in .
Brooke : Ah .
Steffy : Everyone , I d like you to meet Graham Darros .
Graham : ( Sighs )
Brooke : You re a photographer .
Donna : And a very good photographer if you re the same Graham Darros who did the River Reed Festival in Vancouver .
Graham : Well , thank you . Since then , I ve , uh , actually been working a lot in Europe , but now that I am back , I would so love to turn your After Party campaign into the success I know it can be .
Katie : How did you hear about it ?
Graham : Well , Steffy tracked me down , actually . She sold me on it . I think it s brilliant . I mean , a fashion house as renowned as Forrester just never quite took advantage of the youth market , and I ve been lucky enough to make a career out of promoting that market . Anyways , you guys are in your , uh , your meeting . I ll , uh , I ll just wait outside for your decision , okay ? Ladies .
Steffy : We ca nt miss with this guy shooting our layouts . Everything he touches turns into success . Profits , Katie-- your husband will love that .
Katie : Great . Hope , you re up .
Steffy : Up for what ?
Katie : Uh , Hope has an idea that she would like to pitch for a new collection . Hope , the floor is all yours .
Hope : Okay .
Whip : Why did nt you tell me ? I would have helped .
Sandy : I could nt tell you . I couldnt-- I could nt even look at you or any man for a long time .
Whip : I m so sorry .
Sandy : ( Sniffles )
Whip : Okay . I m sorry . I ca nt imagine what you must have been feeling .
Sandy : ( Sighs )
Whip : ( Inhales sharply ) It kills me that I could nt do anything for you .
Sandy : It s okay . You know what ? Nick has really-- he s really helping me with this , and the police are on it now .
Whip : Oh , now ? That s great . ( Sighs )
Sandy : Yeah . They , um , explained to me about budget cuts and , you know , the expense of D.N.A. testing . ( Sniffles ) But ... ( Sniffles ) I just -- it really got to me , you know , that there s so many women that are just like me , and they re waiting for answers , for answers for crimes that should put a guy away for the rest of his life . And I do nt know . I know that the police are gon na turn it around , and they re gon na process all of those kits , and they re gon na put those criminals--
Whip : Aggie , Aggie , Aggie , listen to me . I need ...
Sandy : ( Sniffles )
Whip : ( Sighs ) I need for you to talk to me about the party and who was there .
Ridge : Look , I refuse to believe that Brooke and her sisters want to turn Forrester Creations into Logan Creations . Brooke is my wife . She wants to see me running this company .
Stephanie : Not sneaking anymore children in , are they ? I mean , we ve got Rick ... ( Laughs ) and now , for goodness sakes , Marcus .
Ridge : Well , Marcus is doing a great job .
Stephanie : Uh - huh .
Ridge : There s no conspiracy going on here .
Stephanie : I just do nt want to see Taylor s children passed over .
Ridge : Steffy and Thomas are always gon na have a place in this company . Who knows ? Maybe someday , they ll be running it .
Stephanie : I hope so . I see Taylor a lot , you know .
Ridge : Well , I imagine you would . You re living with her .
Stephanie : She s doing very well , now that you ask .
Ridge : I m glad .
Stephanie : Of course , on the other hand , I m sure shed-- well , never mind .
Ridge : Thank you .
Stephanie : Oh , no . I was gon na tell you she s dating someone .
Hope : Well , it s simple , really , almost too simple . Um , a new generation , my generation , going out into the world to make their mark-- college , that first job , so much to live for , so much to dress for . Now what kids do nt have-- the only thing they do nt have-- is money , but we still want to look great , you know , dress to kill , be on the forefront of whatever that new fashion trend might be . So where do we spend our money ? Well , a chunk of that is on clothes , clothes that not only set us apart , but , yes , make a statement . And what is that statement ? What does my generation stand for ? How does the world view this new fledgling group of young adults ? As hope , hope for the future and , thus , the name of the new line-- clothes that define what we stand for , clothes that give us an identity-- you know , a line so raw , so edgy , so out there . I present to you Forrester s new campaign-- Hope for the Future .
Steffy : Wait a minute . You re naming the line after yourself .
Hope : Kind of , but it s really naming it after a concept , you know , one that defines my generation .
Steffy : You ca nt be seriously considering this .
Donna : I think it s pretty unique .
Brooke : You have to admit , it is pretty compelling .
Katie : I love it . Hope for the Future .
Hope : Oh , well , you re the one--
Katie : We re going with it .
Hope : Really ?
Katie : Yes , absolutely .
Steffy : What about Hollywood Glamour ?
Katie : Well , Steffy , what we have here are two really great ideas . One of them is maybe a little stale . The other one is a breath of fresh air , easily marketable . We ll cancel Glamour .
Steffy : You re cancelling a successful line .
Taylor : Wait , wait , wait , wait , wait . Where s the hook ? I mean , how can you design an entire line around the word hopeful ? What -- I mean , what are they gon na be made of , you--3-ring binders , paper ?
Brooke : My husband will come up with the designs , and I m sure they ll be fabulous .
Katie : And Steffy will work closely with Hope to market her concept .
Steffy : Is this really a good concept , Katie , or is there something more going on here ?
Ridge : Whip Jones ?
Stephanie : Yeah , they re seeing quite a bit of each other . It s nothing serious . I m -- I m sure he s not her first preference .
Ridge : Mother , I have way too much going on to worry about Taylor s love life .
Stephanie : ( Laughs ) I bet you do with those three girls undoing all the hard work you and Eric have done .
Ridge : Okay , you can stop with that now .
Stephanie : So you re going to continue to work here under Katie s shadow ?
Ridge : I m just biding my time .
Stephanie : Are you happy , honey ?
Ridge : ( Sighs ) My kids , uh , that s what makes me happy-- having Steffy and Thomas here , watching them develop their talent . Steffy came up with a great Hollywood Glamour line . It was brilliant . Now she s got a sequel to that that I think will be equally as exciting .
Stephanie : Good for her . I got to get back to the office . I have a meeting .
Ridge : I ll walk you to your car . Come on .
Stephanie : Oh , how nice . Thank you very much . Sweetheart ... do nt trust anyone . Did nt I teach you that a long time ago ?
Ridge : Right . Everyone s out to get me , including my wife .
Stephanie : Yes .
Ridge : Yeah .
Stephanie : ( Chuckles )
Sandy : Whip , you do nt have to take this on , okay ?
Whip : Yeah--
Sandy : Now the police are on it , and Nick has been a godsend , but listen to me . You do nt say a word about this to Bridget-- not a word , okay ? I do nt want her to stress out about this , and I know that she will .
Whip : ( Sighs ) Okay . It s been quite a few years , actually , anyway . ( Sighs ) what was that photographer s name ? Um ... was it Gordon ? No , Graham , right ?
Sandy : Graham . Yes , Graham .
Whip : Right .
Sandy : I think he s actually hit it big since then-- Graham Darros .
Graham : They took a pass on your After Party project ?
Steffy : Yeah . Look , I m -- I m so sorry I wasted your time .
Graham : No , no . You did nt . I m just -- I m surprised . It was a winner , Steff .
Steffy : Well , maybe they ll want you to shoot Hope . ( Sighs )
Graham : ( Sighs ) Well , you -- you re probably not gon na want to hear this , but she s a beautiful girl . I d probably enjoy it . I just-- ( Clicks tongue ) I do nt know . I just feel bad for you .
Steffy : Oh , it is so obvious Katie has it out for me . I d like to put her in her place . Maybe I should .
Taylor : Brooke ... ( Scoffs ) you have got to talk to your sister . Hope has zero experience .
Brooke : Maybe that s what we need-- a new approach .
Taylor : No , that-- ( Scoffs ) is exactly what Steffy is qualified to do . Look at the success of the-- of the Hollywood Glamour line . Look how great that was . It only makes common business sense that she would be the one to follow it up .
Brooke : She ll have other chances to do that , but this is Hope s moment .
Taylor : Your daughter s moment , you mean .
Brooke : The decision s been made .
Taylor : Well , have you thought about how this is going to affect your marriage ? You know why Ridge is here . The only reason he is still here after everything he s been through-- it s a miracle he did nt leave a long time ago . The only reason he s here is because of his daughter . This is her legacy , and when he finds out that his daughter has been passed over for yours , he is not going to be happy .
Brooke : Taylor , it did nt happen that way .
Taylor : I was there , Brooke . That s exactly what happened .
Brooke : Gosh , you do nt know anything about this business . What Hope did today was huge , and Ridge will see that .
Taylor : No , Ridge is going to be pushed to his ultimate limit . He will walk , Brooke , and it wo nt be just from this company .
Brooke : Oh , I see . ( Chuckles ) That s good . Yeah , you would really love that , would nt you ? You ve always had this glimmer of hope that you two would get back together .
Taylor : Okay , fine . Fine . You know , do nt say you have nt been warned .
Brooke : You are so transparent , all this so - called advice that you give , when really , you re just trying to stir up trouble , and this time you re using our children . How pathetic .
Taylor : Ooh . W - Wow .
Ridge : What s going on ?
Taylor : Hmm . You want to tell him ?
Brooke : Yes . Yes , I do .
Taylor : Okay .
Brooke : A decision s been made about the promotional campaign .
Ridge : Well , we re gon na be going with the Hollywood Glamour line , right ?
Brooke : Well , we decided to go with something new , actually . Um , it s -- it s something different . We re going in a different direction .
Ridge : What direction is that ?
Brooke : Mm . It s called Hope-- Hope for the Future .
Ridge : Steffy s idea ?
Brooke : No . It was Hope s , actually .
Ridge : Your daughter , our new intern-- you chose her idea over Steffy s ?
Brooke : Uh , okay , I can see you re not really happy with this , but you know what ? It s really a great concept , and if you just give me a chance to tell you about it ... Ridge ?
Ridge : Logan , I helped Steffy with that presentation . She believes in it , and so do I. But you and your sisters went to your teenaged daughter s idea instead of Steffy s ? What s going on here ? This -- this time , I m afraid you ve gone too far here . I ve had enough .
Brooke : Ridge , wait .
Ridge : No . This is it . Brooke , I m done , finished .
Brooke : What are you saying ?
Ridge : I m telling you it s over .

### Dialogue:
Jennifer : I just think that ... maybe we should just take a break and not see each other for a while .
Daniel : Jennifer , please . You ca nt mean that .
Jennifer : I do nt want to do this , but I really do nt know how we re supposed to go on if you re not willing to not have any contact with Chloe whatsoever , and I do nt think you re ready for that .
Chloe : Hey , Mom .
Nancy : Hi , honey . I m just calling now to let you know that I ve got my plane ticket , my bags are packed , oh , and I ca nt wait to see you and my precious grandson .
Chloe : Well , I do nt know . I do nt know if now is such a good time .
Nancy : Um , you do nt want me to come ?
Chloe : No , I do . It s just that everything s a lot more complicated than I thought it would be .
Nancy : Okay , honey , tell you what , sit down , take a deep breath , and tell me all about it .
Abigail : [ Gasps ] Cameron . I m so sorry .
Cameron : Uh , Abigail . What is it ? What s wrong ?
Rafe : Arianna Grace . [ Chuckles ] It s a beautiful name .
Gabi : Thank you . I m already asking Ari to watch out for her .
Kate : Hi , Gabi . Thought I d stop by and see how you are .
Gabi : Oh , hi . I m fine , so thank you , bye .
Lucas : This is nt right , and you know it .
Nick : I only know what has to be done . Do you have a pen ?
Attorney : Yes .
Sami : You ca nt do this .
Nick : I assume you found everything in order . Good . Well , I do nt see a reason to waste any more time . Uh ... oh , no , I wo nt be signing them . He will .
Sami : Look , Will , why do nt you wait ? Why do nt we think this through before you do anything ?
Nick : You know what the choice is here , Will ... and trust me , you do nt want to spend any time in prison .
Will : If I can go to prison without dragging anyone else down , I will . So at least she can come visit me ... and I can see her when I get out . But I think you re right . We re all so screwed up , she d probably be better off without me .
Jennifer : I hear the words coming out of my mouth , and I know it sounds like an ultimatum , but that s not what I want it to be .
Daniel : Look , I know you do nt , but it is an ultimatum .
Jennifer : And I know the most important thing for you is to be with your son .
Daniel : Yes .
Jennifer : All right , but Chloe is not gon na stop , so it s just gon na get worse and worse , Daniel .
Daniel : And you ca nt live like that , I know . [ Grumbles ]
Jennifer : I just -- ugh . I know that she s not gon na get you back , but I also know that she will eventually end up killing whatever we have between us .
Cameron : Sorry , I spilled something on my scrubs and had to duck in here to change .
Abigail : No , I m sorry that I barged in like that .
Cameron : Oh , it s -- no . Whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa , look , look , look , look , look , look , I can tell you re upset about something . Tell me about it .
Gabi : Just go , okay ?
Kate : Sure . I ll leave this here for you . Get some rest .
Rafe : Kate . Wait . I know you re upset , but she s just trying to be nice . She s worried about you and the baby .
Gabi : Okay , uh , Rafe , why are you defending her ?
Sami : [ Whispering ] I just want a second . Okay , just give me -- just give me one second . I have something that I want to say to you , just the two of us .
Lucas : Sami , I do nt think that s a good idea right now .
Sami : Well , I think it s a good idea . I think it s important for Nick and I to talk , just the two of us , so if you could just go ... Will ? Just give me a second .
Nick : [ Scoffs ]
EJ : You sure ?
Sami : I m sure .
Nick : [ Scoffs ] You can threaten me or Gabi all you want , but I m not backing down , Sami .
Sami : I m not here to threaten you . I m here to make you an offer .
Nick : [ Laughs ]
Sami : Because I will do anything to make sure that Will does not lose his daughter .
Nick : Well , unfortunately , there s nothing you can do .
Sami : You re wrong . There is something . I will take an oath . I will sign your papers , I will sign anything . I will swear that I will stay out of that baby s life .
Sami : Get an injunction that will keep me away from the child . I wo nt fight it . I will sign it . But think about it , Nick . I am the one who made the mistakes , I m the one you have a problem with , not Will , so punish me , not him .
Nick : This is not a punishment , Sami , do you understand ? I am protecting Gabi and our baby .
Sami : Yeah , but you do nt have to protect that baby from Will . It s his child . He loves her , he is totally committed to her .
Nick : Oh , really ? Was he totally committed to her when he took Gabi to get an abortion ?
Sami : You do nt understand what he--
Nick : You need to face facts here , Sami . Will is just like you . He will not commit to anything unless it s convenient , and those commitments have a tendency to subside very quickly .
Sami : We are talking about his child . This is Will s baby girl , and that has to mean something to you . You love Gabi , right ? You love her and you love this child that she is carrying ... but Will being a part of this baby s life does nt have to change that for you . It s me you have a problem with , and I totally understand that . So if you promise that Will will be a part of his daughter s life ... I will disappear . I will stay away from that child forever .
Nick : You know what , Sami ? I think you actually mean that .
Rafe : Defending her ? [ Laughs ] No , I m just wondering why you re so tough on her .
Gabi : Well , I m tired , okay , I m upset .
Rafe : Okay .
Gabi : And I also ca nt forget how hard she was on Nick .
Kate : Gabi , we were in negotiations . He was really hard on me too , and I respect him for that .
Gabi : Oh .
Kate : But none of that really matters . You re having Will s baby , and that s what s important to me . You have the upper hand , because I will do practically anything to be part of that baby s life . I mean , this is just the start . If I have to buy you a new car , send you on a trip to Europe--
Rafe : So you think you can buy her affections ?
Kate : I m gon na try . Here , go ahead and open it . Tell me how I m doing so far .
Cameron : Is this about the other day ? I m sorry I ran out on you .
Abigail : No , no , you had an emergency , and that s not what this is about .
Cameron : Well , then what is it about ?
Abigail : Something really terrible happened today , something awful .
Cameron : Go on .
Abigail : I got in this huge fight with Chloe , and I think I screwed up my mom s life completely .
Cameron : Abigail , come here .
Daniel : Love . Love is what we have between us . She s not gon na kill that , Jennifer .
Jennifer : You re right , and that s why I want you to hear what I m saying , because this is so important . I do nt want to give up on us . I want to fight so hard for what we have , so I do nt understand why we ca nt just draw this line in the sand for Chloe and ask her to honor that .
Daniel : Okay , okay , so if we draw this line in the sand , what is gon na happen to my son ? You were okay with this before .
Jennifer : I was , I was before all this trouble happened with her , before I knew how obsessed she was with you , before she dragged my daughter into this and taunted her with the memory of her dead father , Daniel .
Daniel : What ?
Jennifer : Oh , she did nt tell you about that ? Wow , how unusual for Chloe to leave out a pertinent detail like that , Daniel .
Daniel : Okay , I -- Jen , Jen , I am gon na make sure that I can--
Jennifer : Oh , I know what you re gon na say . You re gon na make sure that it never happens again . You ca nt .
Daniel : You do nt think it s gon na get even worse if I do nt even talk to her ?
Jennifer : I have no idea . I do nt know how to get through to her obsessed , sick mind right now , cause she is out of control .
Daniel : Mm . Jen , I - I--
Jennifer : But I see . I see what she s doing to you , and I feel for you in this situation , I really do , but now that she has dragged my daughter into this , I am not gon na let us go down this road that you are proposing -- letting us believe that everything is gon na be okay , and deluding ourselves into thinking that Chloe just wants to be a good mom to Parker when her agenda is so clear .
Jennifer : We do nt have to talk about it anymore .
Daniel : Yeah , well--
Jennifer : You know why I made this decision and you know how I feel , so now , it s up to you .
Chloe : I do nt know if there s anything that you or I could do , Mom . If Daniel agrees to what Jennifer wants , then I m not sure that I ll ever be able to get close enough to him to win him back .
Nancy : Honey -- honey , listen to me . [ Sighs ] Everything s going to work out . We ll find a way for you to get him back . I promise you that .
Daniel : I got ta go . I have to tuck my little man in .
Jennifer : Yeah , I know . I understand .
Daniel : Okay . Well , good night .
Jennifer : Good night .
Cameron : She spoke about your father ?
Abigail : Yeah , yeah . She acted like we did nt even care that he died , and she accused me of pimping my mom out to Daniel because I m trying to get back at my dad for deserting me for all those years , and then ... uh , then I attacked her . Physically . I mean , I physically attacked her .
Cameron : Well , I hope she s missing teeth .
Abigail : What if she s right ?
Cameron : Abigail , she s not right . I was there , and I saw how that affected you and how much you loved him .
Abigail : Yeah . I just-- why was he so determined to save me ?
Cameron : Do nt say that . Do nt think that .
Abigail : It should have been me on that elevator . It should have been me .
Cameron : No .
Abigail : [ Sobs ]
Gabi : Um , thank you so much . It s a gift certificate to the spa , whole day .
Rafe : Wow .
Kate : Aromatherapy , a mani - pedi , a mom - to - be personal massage .
Gabi : It s perfect . Thank you .
Kate : Great . So does this mean that I do nt have to buy you that new car ?
Rafe : [ Laughs ]
Will : Is there any way where I -- if I take responsibility for my actions , I can just serve the sentence and not drag anybody else down with me ?
EJ : [ Sighs ] I think , under the circumstances , Nick has a pretty good case . I m sorry . I ca nt imagine that a board of inquiry would understand what your grandfather did ... Bo and Hope not properly investigating evidence that would have implicated you , and then there s what your father did .
Lucas : Do nt worry about me . I ll be fine .
EJ : Lucas , you already perjured yourself , twice .
Will : I - I do worry about you , Dad . You have suffered enough because of my stupidity , and I do nt want to hurt anybody anymore .
Lucas : What about your own daughter ? Do you really want her to be raised by a blackmailing murderer ?
Sami : I do mean it .
Nick : Yeah . You do . That s why people keep falling for your lies . Cause when you say them , you actually mean them .
Sami : I ll put it in writing . I will sign anything , right now .
Nick : It does nt matter , because tomorrow morning , you ll wake up and try to find some way to change it . You do nt change , Sami , no matter what you promise . Sign something , put your hand on a Bible -- I ... do not ... believe you .
Sami : No , no , no !
Nick : What ?
Sami : I am offering you something that is so precious to me . I am offering you my time-- my time with my granddaughter ... for Will . So think what you want of me , but no one would argue that I do not love my children .
Nick : Sami , you just tried to blackmail me by threatening to send Gabi , the mother of your unborn granddaughter , to prison .
Sami : I was desperate .
Nick : And you still are . Do you really think for one minute that if Will were to be able to see this baby , to hold her in his arms , to spend time with her , that you d be able to prevent yourself from elbowing your way in on that ? You would not be able to stop yourself from interfering ...
Sami : You do nt have any rights to this child !
Nick : And making Gabi s life totally , totally miserable .
Sami : You are a blackmailer and a murderer , and you are trying to steal another man s child ! You do nt deserve to raise any child , never mind my son s daughter !
Sami : I did nt mean that .
Nick : No , Sami , I think we both know that you did mean that . Listen ... [ Clears throat ] This conversation has ceased to be productive on any level , so I m gon na go get the notary , I m gon na get Will , and he s gon na sign this paper .
Will : I know what Nick is doing is wrong , but he s only doing it because he s scared . He s scared of what Mom did . I mean , Gabi almost lost the baby during one of Mom s attacks .
EJ : Wait a second , you re not seriously suggesting that that man is justified in what he s doing ?
Will : No , I m not . I m just saying that ... Nick is right in that what Mom did is just one example of the dysfunction of our family . He does not think that s a healthy environment for a kid to grow up in ...
Lucas : All right .
Will : And he s gon na do everything he can to protect Gabi and to protect the baby from her .
Nick : That s right . I will .
Cameron : Abigail , listen . I was there . Your father is a true hero , and I m so grateful you re still alive . He d hate it if you felt guilty for what he did of his own free will .
Abigail : Thanks . When you say it , I can kind of believe it .
Cameron : Well , believe it , cause it s the truth .
Abigail : [ Sighs ]
Cameron : Thank God you re still alive .
Daniel : Listen .
Jennifer : What ?
Daniel : I am not giving up on you , on us , cause I will make you see that I can do this . I can make this work and give my son everything he needs . Know that . I love you .
Jennifer : I love you .
Daniel : Whoa .
Jennifer : Oh , maybe love is enough . Daniel
Sami : It did nt work . He hates me and he is using me to hurt Will , and I played right into his hand .
Nick : Well , I do nt see a reason to put this off any longer . Does anyone else ?
Sonny : Will , hey ... please , talk to my dad .
Nick : What is another lawyer gon na tell him ? We ca nt wait any longer .
Will : You know this is wrong . Somewhere deep in your heart , you know this is wrong .
Nick : I only know what s best for Gabi and this baby .
Will : [ Sighs ]
Abigail : Thank you for talking to me . I do nt know how you did it , but I actually feel better .
Cameron : Well , I m glad , because you re amazing . You should always feel good about yourself .
Abigail : Well , I do when I m with you .
Cameron : I better get back to work .
Abigail : Yeah .
Cameron : But , hey , can I see you tomorrow ?
Abigail : Yeah , I like that .
Chloe : Shh . Have you made a decision yet ?
Daniel : Decision ?
Chloe : About Jennifer s ultimatum .
Daniel : Okay , it was nt an ultimatum , and that s not why I m here , all right ? I do nt want to talk about that . I m actually here to say good night to Parker .
Chloe : Well , you re too late . He already fell asleep in his playpen . It was so cute , you should have seen him . He was trying to stay awake , saying , Where Daddy ? Where Daddy ?
Daniel : Really ? Really ?
Chloe : What , you think I m lying ?
Daniel : No , I think you enjoy making me guilty . [ Scoffs ] What you need to do , you need to call your mother , and tell her to get here right away , until we find a nanny .
Chloe : Okay .
Daniel : And by the time we hire someone , we ll have made some decisions about how everything is gon na work here .
Chloe : You mean the Jennifer Horton plan goes into effect ?
Daniel : Okay , did I say that ? I do nt think I said that . Did I say that ?
Chloe : You know what ? Have you thought about it , Daniel ? If we ca nt be in the same room , how are we gon na go together to his nursery school interviews or his birthday parties or soccer games or whatever ? Are you seriously going to let Jennifer dictate how we parent our child ?
Daniel : Shh , shh .
Chloe : I m sorry . It s hard for me to keep my voice down when we re talking about my son s life . I m gon na go call my mom .
Daniel : [ Sighs ] Oh , I am gon na do what s best for you . Oh , but what the hell is that ?
Notary : These are in order . I ll take them to your lawyer .
Nick : Okay . I think we re done here . I m sure everyone understands the importance of discretion . As far as people outside of this room , this was Will s decision . I say that to protect you , Will , because the fact is , I have nothing to lose if the truth comes out , whereas Will , on the other hand--
Lucas : Your great - grandfather practically built this hospital . If he could see you now , he d be disgusted . You are not a Horton .
Nick : I need to go find Gabi .
EJ : Nick . A word . Four years ago , I stood in a courtroom and I defended you . I asked for leniency . Leniency you got . Leniency , without which you would not have got your parole . William is like a son to me , and I belong to a family you do not want to mess with .
Nick : You do nt scare me .
EJ : [ Chuckles ] Then you re a lot more stupid than you look .
Nick : Maybe .
Sami : [ Sobbing ] He s a vicious son of a bitch . But it s my fault , and I m --
Will : No .
Sami : I am so sorry .
Will : No . I have nobody to blame but myself . Sonny , can you take me home ?
Lucas : You tried . It s not your fault , Sami .
Sami : He ca nt get away with this .
Lucas : It looks like he just did .
EJ : Come here .
Sami : How could anybody be so cruel ? [ Sobs ]
Nick : How are you feeling ?
Gabi : Good . How about you ?
Nick : Good . Excited . Happy . Gabi , all of our problems are over . They re over . Everybody finally came to their senses .
Gabi : What are you talking about ?
Nick : Will , his whole family , they all finally realized that you and the baby are the biggest priority . No one , not even Sami , is gon na be able to bother us now .
Gabi : Okay , what did you do ?
Nick : I did what I had to do . And now I want to marry you as soon as possible .
EJ : Samantha , come on . Let s go . All of this can wait until the morning .
Sami : Why should it ?
EJ : Because you need to go home and get some rest .
Sami : Why should I go home ? So I can ruin the rest of my kids lives ? Maybe I could get Johnny kicked off the soccer team ...
EJ : Samantha--
Sami : Or Allie to have--
EJ : Hey , Samantha , would you look at me , please ? We said we were nt going to do this . Would you please let me in ? Will you let me help you ?
Sonny : Wish there was something I could say .
Will : No , it s ... it s over now . My little girl .
Gabi : That totally came out of the blue , what--
Nick : What do you mean ? You know how much I want to marry you .
Gabi : Well , yeah , but I mean , all of a sudden you want to get married right away , and I mean , we told Rafe that we would wait .
Nick : And we waited over a month . I mean , you know how much I just want the three of us to be a happy family . I would nt do anything to screw this up , I-- there s no more reason to wait . Gabi , please . Please , marry me .
Gabi : Nick . Yes , of course , yes .
Nick : Mmm . [ Sighs ]
Chloe : Well , I called my mom , and she s thrilled . She s gon na be here tomorrow .
Daniel : Good , I m glad it all worked out . And once again , you are gon na stay away from Jennifer and Abigail . If you happen to run into them , you cross the street and you stay away from them .
Chloe : Daniel , I said I would do that , and I m gon na keep my word .
Daniel : Good . This is exhausting . I m getting out of here . I ll see you tomorrow .
Abigail : Mom ?
Jennifer : Hmm ?
Abigail : Listen to me . Okay , I lost it because of Chloe , okay , but I m fine now .
Jennifer : I know , baby . It s late , it really is .
Abigail : Mom . I hate it that you and Daniel are breaking up because you re worried about me .
Jennifer : Honey , we re not breaking up . We re just trying to figure all of this out right now , okay ?
Abigail : Well , I feel like it s my fault .
Jennifer : It s not . It s not your fault . It s not my fault , it s not Daniel s fault , it-- I just hope that Daniel figures out whose fault it is and that he just gets Chloe out of his life for good .
Daniel : Hello ?
Nancy : Oh , Daniel ! It s so good to hear your voice .
Daniel : Uh , I m sorry , who is this ?
Nancy : Daniel , it s your son s proud grandma .
Daniel : Nancy . I m sorry , I--
Nancy : Oh , no , honey , do nt worry about it . It s been a long time since we ve spoken . Oh , ah , but that s all gon na change , is nt it ? Oh , I ca nt wait to see Parker again .
Daniel : Well , it s really nice of you to help us out like this .
Nancy : Oh , thank you , Daniel . Um , Daniel , there s something that I want to say , entre nous . I know a lot about what s going on . I love Chloe to death , but ... I can see clearly that she needs to let go , move on .
Daniel : Really ?
Nancy : Yes , and I d like to maybe sit down with you when I get back to Salem , and maybe I can help Chloe find her way through all this .
Daniel : That would be-- that would be great .
Nancy : Good , then we ll talk when I get there . Good night , Daniel .
Daniel : Okay . [ Laughs ] All right , good night , Nancy . Phew . [ Whispering ] Yes .
Chloe : Mom ?
Nancy : [ Gasps ] It went great . I stayed on script , and he bought it all .
Chloe : Oh , thank you so much .
Nancy : Do nt worry , honey , it s all going to work out just the way you planned .
Chloe : That s right . Just like I planned .
Cameron : Do nt forget , she needs her sleep .
Nick : Yeah .
Cameron : Okay .
Nick : [ Sighs ] He s right , you should get some sleep .
Gabi : Well , I hope I m not too excited to sleep , because ... I ca nt , I m all excited . [ Giggles ] I love you , Nick .
Nick : I love you so much , and I m gon na make you so , so happy .
Kate : Mmm .
Rafe : Oh , my God .
Rafe : I really do nt want to get that .
Kate : [ Laughs ]
Rafe : But it s work ... so I have to .
Rafe : Okay . Hernandez . Okay , I ll be right there . Sorry .
Kate : Oh . That s okay , duty calls .
Rafe : [ Laughing ] Yeah . It wo nt take long . I ll make sure it does nt take long .
Kate : So what are you trying to say ?
Rafe : Stay here ... if you want . I ll be back . Mmm .
Sami : Do nt . I do nt need your sympathy , EJ , and I sure as hell do not deserve it .
EJ : Samantha .
Sami : I do nt , okay ? I just do nt need you ! I m sorry .
EJ : It s okay .
Sami : I do . [ Sobs ]
EJ : It s okay .
Sami : [ Sobbing ]
Will : And I just ca nt get away from the fact that this is really all my fault .
Sonny : And Nick ? He s just blameless ? Will , will you just please talk to my dad ? Please .
Will : There s nothing to talk about .
Sonny : So what , you re just gon na give up ? After everything Nick did to you ?
Will : I do nt know . I - I - I-- I get why he did it , you know ? It was nt fair .
Sonny : And it was cruel .
Will : Yes , and it was wrong , but he s just trying to do what he thinks is best to protect Gabi and , you know , what he sees as his family .
Sonny : Protect from-- from you ?
Will : I dont -- from my family , from my mom , you know . [ Mumbles ] He s right about how ...
Sonny : Damn it , Will , no .
Will : Screwed up we all are .
Sonny : No , no , no , no , no . That s just an excuse . Listen to me , I ve been-- I ve been thinking about this . You know , I m -- I was trying to piece this whole thing together . Will , Nick played you ... and Gabi , and everyone . You think that he just stumbled upon this evidence of what you did , the evidence of the cover - up ? No . He went looking for it , and he found it ... and he sat back and he waited for something to happen so he could justify using it . This whole entire -- listen to me , this whole thing was planned . That s why he was so thrilled when your mother butted in .
Will : No .
Sonny : Yes , yes .
Will : No .
Sonny : You really think he s doing all this because your mother butted in ? Will , he s doing this ... because you re gay .

You are a helpful, respectful and honest assistant. Your task is to summarize the following dialogue. Your answer should be based on the provided dialogue only.
### Dialogue:
Colleen : ( Screams ) ( Splash )
Patty : Colleen ! Colleen ! ( Sighs ) ( Groans )
Patty : ( Breathing heavily ) ( Splash ) ( Sighs ) Did you hear that , Kitty ? ( Breathing heavily ) Colleen is gon na get us help . She s not gon na let me die . ( Groans )
J.T. : ( Sighs ) ( Groans ) We ve been searching for hours and nothing .
Paul : That s not true . We found Colleen s car . We know they re out there . You know , by 6 : 30 , there s gon na be a lot more light . We ll load up on coffee , we ll take a breath , and we will go out there and find them .
J.T. : Yeah , Colleen s smart as hell and clever . People do nt realize that about her , but it s like her secret weapon . If anybody s gon na get through to Patty , it s gon na be her .
Paul : Well , God bless her for that . The rest of us have nt done so well reaching my sister .
Jack : I assume you ve heard about Colleen . My niece is now being held hostage by Patty Williams .
Victor : Abby told me , but not her mother , and I do nt want her mother disturbed .
Jack : Agreed . One sister in hell is quite enough .
Victor : ( Sighs ) Come in .
Victor : I pledged my resources to the search . Authorities will have all the assistance they need .
Jack : What is that , a press release ? Pretty cold , huh ? Guess I should nt be surprised . For what it s worth , they found Colleen s car . No sign of the two women . Patty has a gun . One is missing from my family s cabin .
Victor : That s not too good , is it ?
Jack : No . Conjures up all kinds of ugly visions , does nt it ? Innocent girl , an unstable woman with a loaded weapon-- how does it feel to know this is all because of you ?
Victor : I ll support your family , but I will not tolerate your accusations , all right ?
Jack : And that s it ? You want me out ?
Victor : You bet .
Jack : You ve wanted me out for some time now . That s why you brought Patty to town , is nt it , to take me out permanently ? You brought in an unhinged woman to do your dirty work . Who knew Victor Newman could be so gutless ?
Victor : I asked you to keep it down . Do not awaken your sister .
Kevin : Hey . Uh ... no kiss ?
Jana : No .
Kevin : Come on .
Jana : Oh , I m sorry .
Kevin : Uh , what--
Jana : I just need to reach over there . Excuse me .
Kevin : First , I do nt get a kiss , and you walk right through me ? Come here .
Jana : ( Giggles )
Kevin : Mm . ( Laughs ) What was I doing ? Okay .
Man : It s 6 : 20 a.m. , and some big news going down . A Genoa City resident Colleen Carlton has been abducted . She was taken by Patty Williams ...
Kevin : Did he just say Colleen Carlton ?
Jana : Shh !
Man : A.K.A. Mary Jane Benson . An A.P.B. has been issued for Williams . She is believed to be armed and is considered dangerous .
Kevin : Holy crap .
Jana : ( Whispers ) Oh , my God .
Ashley : Hey , baby . Why are you up so early ?
Abby : Could nt sleep .
Ashley : Oh . Come sit . What s the matter , Honey ? What s wrong ? Tell me .
Abby : I ca nt . You re tired , and you ve had so many things going on .
Ashley : Abby , I m your mom . You re the one that matters . Now come on . Why are you so sad ?
Abby : It s Colleen .
Lily : Well , I ve seen a lot more sunrises since the chemo started , so that s something , I guess .
Cane : Well , the search team will have more to go on now that the sun s come up .
Lily : Yeah , I m sure there will be word soon , or Colleen will just , you know , call herself , so ...
Cane : Hey , hey , hey . Close your eyes , all right ? Lay down and get some rest . If the phone rings , I ll call you . I ll wake you up .
Lily : No , Cane , I ca nt sleep , okay ? I ca nt just sit here . ( Sighs ) I ca nt just do nothing .
Steve : Trace ?
Traci : Steve .
Steve : ( Sighs )
Traci : Oh .
Steve : I m here . I m here .
Traci : We still have nt heard any more news .
Steve : ( Sighs )
Billy : Yeah , well , something will break soon , something good .
Traci : Boy , I hope you re right .
Steve : ( Sighs )
Traci : Look . Look what I found . ( Laughs ) Colleen s favorite nursery rhymes .
Steve : ( Laughs ) Wow . And to think of all the Abbott hands that book has passed through .
Traci : ( Laughs )
Billy : Yeah , well , the jelly stains are nt mine . I swear , they re not .
Traci : ( Laughs ) And when I think about the first time I read some of these to Colleen ...
Steve : Yeah .
Traci : She just stared at me like ...
Steve : ( Laughs )
Traci : Like I d shown her a magic trick-- you know , something remarkable .
Steve : You must have ...
Traci : Oh .
Steve : You must have read that one about a hundred times .
Traci : At least a thousand . Um , she could recite this one by heart .
Steve : Yeah .
Traci : Last night , while Mommy and Daddy were asleep , I crept into the playroom . I did nt make a peep . I opened up the dress - up box without a tiny sound ...
Traci and young Colleen : I looked inside at all my treasures , and here is what I found ...
Young Colleen : A sparkly , wiry princess crown , which I placed upon my hair . Maybe this is what I will be-- a maiden gay and fair .
Lily : It s always there , Colleen ....
Lily : Every day , every second . Part of me is terrified . I m not ready to die , not when there are so many things I have nt even done yet . And you know what I mean , because you re not ready , either . But I am fighting . I m fighting , just like you said . Do you remember what you told me ? That whatever the odds are , do nt give up . And so I am telling you to fight , because there s no other way .
Young Colleen : But then my crown , it tumbled down and broke in pieces on the floor .
Kevin : Man , did I screw up for what I tried to do to you . You had every reason to hate me , and you did hate me , for a really , really long time . ( Scoffs ) But finally , you got to a place where you were able to treat me like a human being , when I was nt even sure that s what I was . You would nt let the hate you had inside make you as broken as I was back then .
Kevin : You forgave me . I m not broken anymore , Colleen , and partly , that s because of you . I was this monster . ( Scoffs ) And you turned me into a friend . You know what that means , do nt you ? It means there is nothing that you ca nt make happen .
Jana : This is an absolute nightmare . Colleen s kidnapped ?
Kevin : What the hell is wrong with this Patty person ? First , she goes and messes with Daniel s sister , and -- and now she grabs Colleen to -- to try and mess with her , too ? But Colleen is tough . You know that . She is crazy tough .
Jana : Yeah . You know , we ve seen it up close , have nt we ? Did nt really give her much choice , did we ?
Kevin : ( Sighs ) She was just trying to protect Lily , her best friend , and in my twisted mind , I thought that that meant she needed to be taught a lesson .
Jana : No , no . What -- what -- what I did ... ( Scoffs ) To her , to both of you , in that walk - in freezer , I cant-- I ca nt even think about it . It s --
Kevin : Well , there are reasons why you did what you did .
Jana : You know , Kev ...
Kevin : ( Sighs )
Jana : We can say that we both have reasons-- my tumor , your past-- and this Patty / Mary Jane person , whatever her name is , I m sure she s got some reason , too , but what does that reason even matter ? Is that gon na take Colleen out of this danger ? It s not . ( Sighs )
Kevin : Well , she survived before . She did more than that . She forgave us . She s gon na survive this , too .
Jana : So does that mean that we have to forgive this woman once Colleen is back home safe ? ( Sniffles ) I m not really sure I can do that .
Billy : It s Ash . ( Clears throat ) Hey .
Ashley : Abby just told me about Colleen , and she was right to . She s my niece , too , Billy , and she s Abby s sister . I need to be kept in the loop .
Billy : You re right . O - okay , you re right , and -- and -- and you will be .
Ashley : Is Traci here ?
Billy : Yeah , and , uh , Steve just got in .
Ashley : Okay . Well , I ll give them some time to get settled . I ll keep checking in , okay ? Give them my love . And , Billy ...
Billy : Yeah ?
Ashley : Colleen s gon na be okay .
Victor : If I wanted you gone , you would be gone , and we both know that .
Jack : Oh , you want me gone , all right . I m the guy you ca nt beat . That sticks in your craw , does nt it ? So what , you figured that you d come at me from another angle ? Bring in somebody I d never suspect ? You knew Patty would blow up eventually . That was the plan . Was it also the plan that your Goddaughter , your wife and your granddaughter were gon na be collateral damage ? And after all that fallout , I m still standing .
Cane : Okay , so what s the plan ?
Lily : I am gon na make a scrapbook for Colleen s birthday .
Cane : Oh . Is it soon ?
Lily : No , it s in a few months , but , you know , you can get pretty elaborate with scrapbooks these days . Perfect thing to get me through the chemo . I do nt know how I m gon na keep it a surprise from her , though . ( Laughs ) Wait , where-- where is that picture ?
Cane : Okay . What , you re looking for a photograph ? What does it look like ? I ll help you .
Lily : No , it should be in here with these , because it was part of the same roll . It s -- Colleen is wearing this , uh , red sweater , and J.T. has this blue print shirt on .
Cane : Okay , all right . Slow down . Slow down . We can just go through these slowly , okay ?
Lily : No , Cane , stop . You re gon na mess up the piles . ( Sighs ) They look so happy together .
Cane : J.T. and Colleen , huh ?
Lily : Yeah . He played it so cool , but he was crazy about her . ( Sighs ) I should have given this picture to Colleen years ago-- her first love . She would have hung onto this picture forever .
Young Colleen : Then my dog , whose name is Max , nosed his way in the door . That s it . He will be my lion . I can be his tamer brave . He will jump and do what I say at my slightest wave .
J.T. : I m a lion now ? What , you just wave your hand and I roll over ? Is that what you think ? Oh , who am I kidding ? You re right . ( Laughs ) You could talk me into almost anything . That s why I fell so hard for you . Willful , stubborn , a pain , but worth it , worth every second ...
J.T. : Even the seconds that broke my heart . Hey , look at me . Look at me . It s okay . You know that . You could nt still make me smile if it were nt . ( Sighs ) So come make me smile again , Colleen . Come back to me .
Paul : Okay , we will take this quadrant here , and the police and the rangers will take this area here , here and here . J.T. ?
J.T. : Yeah . ( Sighs ) Uh , north . Got it .
Paul : You okay ?
J.T. : Yeah . I m -- I m fine . ( Inhales sharply ) I m fine . ( Exhales deeply ) So was Colleen the last time I saw her , and she had just gotten this -- this great job offer . She was really proud of herself , was looking forward to getting away and spending some time alone .
Paul : At the Abbott cabin on a collision course with Patty .
J.T. : That message she left-- Paul , she could have called anyone . She could have called the police , but she called me . That will not be the last time I hear her voice . ( Sighs )
Patty : ( Groans ) ( Sighs ) ( Groans ) ( Sobs ) ( Sniffles ) ( Groans ) Oh , Kitty . ( Sighs ) My sweet , sweet kitty . You do nt lie like Colleen does . ( Sobs ) She said she was gon na help . ( Sniffles ) She did , and she abandoned us . ( Sighs ) She probably went to the police . ( Breathing heavily ) So you know what ? We re gon na have to get out of here ourselves . ( Sighs ) Oh , God . ( Groans ) ( Breathing heavily ) ( Sobs ) ( Breathing heavily )
Jack : What , hiring a hit man was nt interesting enough for you ? You had to go after my mentally unstable ex - wife ?
Victor : You never gave a damn about that woman . You drove her to attempt murder years ago . If she had killed you now , it s something you would have deserved .
Jack : Ooh , careful . This is starting to sound like a confession .
Victor : How dare you come into my home and make accusations ? You know nothing . You have no damn proof , do you ? Maybe we should ve gone with him . out there , Victor-- proof that you brought Patty Williams to town to kill me . It must scare the living crud out of you that it s all about to come to light .
Victor : Are you the victim in this , Jack , or what ?
Jack : Oh , you slapped a bull s - eye on my forehead and sent an unstable psychopath in my direction . What do you call it ?
Victor : Uh , which is it-- poor Jack Abbott facing goliath Victor Newman , or is it the big man that I ca nt beat ? You re the bastard who stole the company-- my company -- out from under me . You re the bastard who left me for dead on my office floor . And you re the bastard who published a journal which accused me of murder for the world to see and for my children to read . And then you drag my son into the mire that you created .
Jack : Your son-- your son Adam ? Your son Adam of whom you are so proud ? Your son Adam , who you treated so badly , he was delighted to throw you under the bus ? You got exactly the love and loyalty you earned from that man .
Victor : Why do nt you and I do something , Jack Abbott ? You take your sins and crimes , I take my sins and crimes , and we put them on a table , let them lie next to each other , and we ll compare them . And then we ll see who s left standing . How s that ?
Jack : ( Scoffs )
Kevin : You know what ? Let s go . We do nt have to open . We can drive up to the lake and help find this lunatic .
Jana : No , we ca nt . The -- the -- the reporter said she might be armed .
Kevin : ( Sighs )
Jana : They re not gon na want civilians in the area . What if she starts bloody shooting or something ?
Kevin : This is unreal .
Jana : ( Sighs )
Kevin : ( Sighs )
Jana : It s 23 past 6 : 00 . It s too early to go by the Abbott house , is nt it ?
Kevin : ( Sighs ) So what do we do ? You know , do -- do we freak out ? Do we brew coffee ? Do we pace ? Do we freak out ? What ? I--
Jana : No . We re gon na find a way to help Colleen , even if it means we do it from here .
Kevin : Yeah .
Billy : Give me some news so my sister can breathe again .
J.T. : Look , Billy , the more sunlight we have , the better chance we have of finding Colleen quickly .
Paul : Yeah , Victor has allocated funds for professional search teams .
Billy : What , am I supposed to applaud ? Does he think throwing money around is gon na get him off the hook for this ?
Paul : Yeah . How are things going down there ?
Billy : Traci s hanging in there -- barely . Steve just got in from New York , thank God . I mean , he s a real champ , but the tension in this place ... thanks to Victor and , uh ... you know what ? Never mind . Forget it .
J.T. : Oh , Billy , what -- what s on your mind ? Say it .
Billy : Paul , you had her , man . I mean , you had Patty , and you took her to a church . She could have been locked up , but instead , she gets out , and she grabs my niece .
J.T. : Billy--
Paul : No , let him talk .
Billy : Look , Paul , I know I m out of line , okay ? You -- I m sitting here on my thumbs waiting for the phone to ring , and you guys are covering ground , and I appreciate it , man , I do . I m grateful . But , Paul , it never should have come to this .
Young Colleen : But then , as I waved my violin bow to make Max do a trick , he rolled over on his back and gave my face a lick .
Billy : Come on , Tiger . You re drifting away from me , and that is unacceptable . You and me , even when we re miles apart , there s that connection . That s our thing . Faults , flaws-- okay , most of those are mine , but they do nt matter , because we re a team , you and me , no matter what . So come on back with me . We ll take some names . We ll kick a little butt . We ll have a whole lot of fun . Come on . I m waiting for you . Cock your head and say , Okay , Uncle Billy , with that sassy smile of yours .
Billy : Come on . Say it . Do nt leave me hanging .
Ashley : Come here , Sweetie . Rest . I ll be right here , okay ? You can rest .
Abby : ( Sighs ) She hates us -- Patty . ( Sniffles ) She used to love Uncle Jack , but now she hates all of us-- you , Summer , Zapato and now Colleen .
Ashley : She s just confused , and she s so lost , she does nt know what s right and wrong anymore .
Abby : What about evil ? Maybe that s what she is .
Ashley : When I knew Patty , she was -- she was a kind and gentle person .
Abby : Well , she s changed .
Ashley : Yeah . Well , there s somewhere deep down inside she s still that person , and maybe somehow , Colleen can reach that person .
Abby : This feels exactly like when Daddy was missing . Everyone kept on telling me how strong he was and that hed -- hed come home , but ... he never did .
Ashley : Oh , Honey . It s not the same . Sometimes when people go , they do come back .
Young Colleen : That s it ! Instead , I will be a teacher . I will make my students learn . They will do just as I say . I will be kind , but stern .
Abby : Are you ready to go , because we ca nt stay here . I know you re the big sister , which means you re usually in charge , but you let me get my way sometimes , and I think now would be a really good time for that , cause here s the thing-- nobody remembers Daddy like we do . Nobody misses him the same-- just you and me . He s our dad , so as long as we re around , he s around , and I do nt want him to be gone . And you ca nt be gone , either . I do nt like it here , Colleen . I want to go home ... with you .
Paul : ( Sighs ) Billy has a right to be angry . I had Patty right next to me . I knew what she had done , and all I could think about was , how do I keep her safe ?
J.T. : Look , Paul , people do things for the sake of family . This is nt all on you . There s plenty of blame to go around .
Paul : When she was with me , there was no Mary Jane . She needs to be Patty again . That s all I could see . She needs to be Patty before things get any worse .
Patty : ( Sighs ) Kitty . ( Breathing heavily ) Oh . ( Gasps ) ( Sighs )
Patty : ( Sighs ) Please ... please , God , help me . ( Sniffles ) Please .
Jack : Comparing sins ? I bow to the master . This game is over , pal .
Victor : ( Sighs )
Jack : My niece , your Goddaughter , is in peril right now , probably scared out of her wits . I got one sister who s praying to God that he ll undo that mess you ve made . I got another sister who you ve already destroyed by sitting back and watching her fall apart .
Victor : You have no idea how I ve cared for your sister .
Jack : You threw her in the attic and walked away .
Victor : Your sister has chosen to be with me . Your useless brother dragged her out of here , and she came back . What does that tell you ?
Jack : Oh , yeah ? How did that work out ? How s she doing ? Is she sane and happy , enjoying her pregnancy ? Hard to tell who you screw over more-- the people you hate or the people you claim to love .
Victor : You hypocritical son of a bitch .
Cane : This the one ?
Lily : Yes ! Oh , my gosh . Thank you . You found it . Aw . Oh , Colleen and J.T.
Cane : Mm .
Lily : Look how happy they were .
Cane : They look blissful .
Lily : Yeah . This one is definitely going in the scrapbook .
Cane : So it looks like you guys have been friends for a long time , huh ?
Lily : Yep . Walnut Grove , sophomore year . I got dragged here from Paris , and she got dragged here from New York . So , you know , we bonded over our Disciplinary problems .
Cane : ( Laughs ) Dare I ask ?
Lily : You know , Colleen just has this smile . It s like you ca nt help but smile back . ( Sighs ) I can not believe how hard I was on her when she got offered the Fresh Face of Jabot after I left .
Cane : And you guys made up , what , two seconds later , because she loves you .
Lily : It s just that I need-- I need new pictures with her , you know ? These old ones are not enough .
Cane : You re gon na get em . You ll get them , Lily . You ll get stacks , and you will get stacks and stacks of them .
Lily : ( Sighs )
Steve : ( Sighs ) I ll be right back . Okay .
Billy : I do nt know how you guys are holding it together . I just want to smash something .
Steve : Uh , it was worse in New York , hearing Traci s voice on the phone and not being able to hold her . At least now I m this much closer to where Colleen is .
Billy : What , so this is the upside , all of us cooped up here together , huh ? Well , at least we are together .
Steve : We ll be ready for Colleen when she s ready for us .
Victor : You come to my home and vomit garbage about your family , how much you love them and protect them . You are the one who manipulated Colleen to assume that seat on the board of directors . She was not qualified for that , and you knew it . She was in way over her head . You watched her sink . You did nt do a damn thing , did you ? Your useless brother Billy came to help . You did nothing . And then there s fragile Ashley , with the depth of her despair , was not helped by you , not supported by you . She was cornered by you , pestered by you . Do nt you come into my home and talk to me about family love and family values , you got that ? If Ashley and my daughter were not upstairs right now , I would put you through the wall .
Young Colleen : In the box , I found a ruler and an apple . I will be very smart . But being strict , a grumpy grouch , just is nt in my heart .
Victor : And Colleen knows damn well you hung her out to dry on that Newman board .
Jack : You set her up at that bar and watched the floor drop out from under her . That s why she took off . She never would have gone if--
Ashley : Stop it ! Both of you !
Victor : Colleen went to your cabin , Jack , and what did she find ? She found your ex - wife brandishing a gun . That makes it your fault .
Ashley : Colleen . Do nt do this in front of her .
Victor : She s not some fragile flower . She understands . I can see it in her eyes . She is nt too proud of some of the things she has done .
Jack : None of us are . That s not the point .
Ashley : We forgive , and we re forgiven . Then we move on . That s the point .
John : Thank you , my beauty . I can take it from here . Ashley s right . It s all about moving on and letting go .
Jack : Moving on or going back-- what are you saying ?
John : Colleen knows the answer , do nt you , Sweetheart ? She knows what she needs to do now . Maybe we should ve gone with him .
Jana : ( Sighs )
Jana : ( Sighs ) Protector spirits ...
Jana : Please bring Colleen home safely .
Kevin : ( Sighs )
Paul : ( Grunts ) You ready to go ?
J.T. : Yeah .
Jack : You re gon na put me through a wall , or you re gon na hire another woman to do your dirty work for you ?
Victor : You want to fight ?
Jack : I want my niece back . You hear me ? I want my niece back . Take a look at her . See that girl ? Beautiful young woman . Her whole life ahead of her . If she comes back hurt in any--
Victor : What ?
Jack : I know where she is .
Mary Jane : ( Gasps ) Who s there ? ( Breathing heavily )
Abby : Colleen !
Ashley : Honey , it s okay . You re okay .
Abby : I - I begged Colleen to come home , but she would nt answer me .
Cane : It s a genius birthday present , and Colleen is gon na love this .
Lily : Yeah . I mean , I - Ill get her something girlie and indulgent , too , but this will make her cry , you know , happy tears .
Cane : Lily .
Lily : I just ... got this ... awful feeling .
Traci : ( Gasps )
Steve : Traci ?
Billy : You okay ?
Traci : You -- uh , s - something s wrong .
Young Colleen : What is it I m born to be ? I peer deeper inside the box . A mommy ? A wife ? A friend ? A sister ? Gentle as a lamb ? Sly as a fox ? What should I put on to make me into something special and great ?
Traci : Sweetheart .
Colleen : ( Sighs ) ( Sighs )
Traci : Oh , ho ho . ( Laughs ) Oh , it ll be okay . I promise you . I love you , my baby . We all love you ...
Traci : Always and forever .
Jack : Paul , its Jack .
Patty : Jack .
Ashley : What would Victor s motive be ?
Billy : To finish the job that he started so many years ago to kill our brother .
Patty : Put down the phone !
Jack : You want to shoot me again ? Fine . Shoot me !

### Dialogue:
Crystal : Hey , Brady . Heading out for a ride ?
Brady : Yeah -- yeah , just get some exercise .
Crystal : Well , I know a way that we could both get a workout -- horizontally . I mean , you d be amazed what I could do to you on the Pilates mat , starting here , with your core , and then working my way down .
Nicole : Crystal . Ha ha . What are you doing ?
Crystal : Hey , Nick . Ha ha . I was just showing Brady --
Nicole : Yeah , I know what you were just . Do nt you have better things to do , like , I do nt know , looking for a permanent place to stay ?
Brady : You know what ? I m -- I m going to go get some water .
Crystal : I thought I made myself clear . I like it here in this mansion -- the swimming pool , the awesome views . This is the life I deserve , especially after taking care of the Marlena Evans situation .
John : What the hell is she talking about ?
Philip : Belle , are you sure this is a good idea ?
Belle : Yeah , I -- I need to do this . I needed to check on this place when my dad was nt around . I mean , he said he wanted to keep everything exactly the way it was when my mom was alive , but ... there are just so many reminders .
Philip : Well , maybe they re a comfort to him . Maybe they make him feel closer to her .
Belle : You re right . But I ve never felt more alone in my life . Losing both Shawn and my mom -- I mean ... I know Shawn is not dead , but I just have this feeling that he s never coming back to me .
Philip : Which could actually be a good thing .
Kate : Philip , I hope you find happiness with Belle , and your brother finds it with anyone other than Sami .
Lucas : Mom , I did nt leave my , uh ...
Kate : Keys ? Yep .
Lucas : Thank you .
Kate : There you are .
Lucas : I guess I got other things on my mind right now .
Kate : Yeah , I m sure you do .
Lucas : I just -- I ca nt believe Sami told Julie that she was so hell - bent on getting revenge on you and John that she actually --
Kate : Yeah , that she has no interest in a future with you .
Lucas : It s twisted . It really is twisted in so many levels .
Kate : The worst being that that vindictive bitch has broken my son s heart .
Joelle : Basic black .
Sami : Hi , Joelle , it s Sami . Um ... I need to talk to Kate .
Joelle : One moment .
Kate : Yes ?
Joelle : Sami Brady s on line 2 .
Kate : What does she want ?
Patrick : You feeling okay ? You did nt say a word the whole way .
Jennifer : No , I - I am not feeling okay . I am completely freaked out . Celeste just predicted that my baby and I are going to die .
Patrick : But you do nt believe that . Celeste admitted that her psychic tuners have been out of whack lately .
Jennifer : Really ? Well , what if this time , they re right ?
Patrick : Now , you ca nt think that way . You know too much stress is nt good for you or the baby .
Jennifer : You re right . You re right . Everything is fine . Celeste is wrong .
Patrick : That s better .
Jennifer : This is really strange . My door is open .
Patrick : I refuse to do anything to hurt Jennifer .
Man : All right , you do nt get with the program , then next time , little blondie may be the one getting the beating .
Patrick : Jennifer , wait . Stay here while I check it out .
Jennifer : I m fine .
Jennifer : I m fine . Hello ? [ Gasps ] Jack . [ Gasps ] Oh , my gosh , Jack , is that you ?
Kate : What do you want ?
Sami : A meeting . I need to see you right away , Kate .
Kate : Why ?
Sami : I ll tell you when I get there .
Lucas : What ? What s she want ? What d she say ?
Kate : She s coming over here .
Lucas : What for ?
Kate : I do nt know what for . She did nt say , but you know , there s only one thing that I can think of .
Lucas : Oh , come on . You do nt really think she s coming after you , do you ?
Kate : I think maybe you should stay here just in case .
Lucas : No . I do nt want to see her right now , okay ?
Kate : Lucas .
Lucas : No , really , what do you think , she s going to hurt you ? Do nt be ridiculous .
Kate : I think that in her state of mind that she s capable of anything . Please , I am asking you , just stay here and protect me from that sick , psychotic monster you wanted to marry .
Sami : [ Sighs ] This is going to be great . Kate wo nt even know what hit her .
John : Who is she ? And what the hell did she just say about my wife ?
Brady : Dad , it s okay . This is Crystal . She s doing work at the free clinic trying to raise funds in Marlena s memory .
John : Oh . I m sorry . What was that name again ?
Crystal : Crystal . Crystal galore .
Brady : She s a friend of Nicole s .
John : Is that a fact ?
Nicole : Uh , Crystal , Mr. Black was married to the late Dr. Evans .
Crystal : Oh . I m sorry , Mr. Black . Your wife was a wonderful person . She helped me in ways that I ca nt even tell you .
John : Well , she s helped a lot of people .
Crystal : So you re Brady s father , huh ? I can see where he gets his good looks .
Nicole : Uh , well , if you ll excuse us , I am sure you re anxious to get on your bike ride . Come on , Crys .
Crystal : Bye , Mr. Black . Very nice meeting you .
Brady : Dad , what is it ?
John : I want to know more about Crystal .
Brady : What do you mean ?
John : What I mean ... could she be the accomplice that helped Nicole murder Victor ?
Nicole : You idiot . If John Black finds out I paid you to set up his wife s jail break so the cops would have to kill her --
Crystal : You d be in big trouble , I know .
Nicole : And so would you , so unless you want to go back to the big house --
Crystal : Not me . I ve found the big house I want -- one with butlers and cooks and maids drawing my bath .
Nicole : Mm , yes . Well , do nt get used to it . I did my part . I bailed you out of jail , and I gave you plenty of money to start a new life .
Crystal : And I m living it big time .
Nicole : Are you crazy ? It is way too dangerous . You have got to get out of town before someone finds out what you did . Now , I can tell Brady s father is already suspicious .
Crystal : Mm , but how hot did he look in those shorts ? And I thought Brady was fine . Hey , what a threesome they would make -- father and son . Pretty kinky , huh ?
Jennifer : Jack ! Jack , are you there ? ! Say -- say something !
Julie : Jennifer , what s the front door doing standing open , sweet-- darling , what s the matter ? You look like you ve seen a ghost .
Jennifer : Jack -- he just called me , and he told me to always remember that he loves me .
Patrick : Okay , mystery solved .
Julie : What are you doing here ?
Bonnie : What s it look like , princess , I was invited for tea ?
Patrick : It s my mom s day to clean house . She let herself in with her key and forgot to close the front door . She s apologizing for the scare .
Bonnie : Yes , Jennifer , I am very sorry . I was just anxious to get to work .
Julie : Oh , please .
Patrick : Jennifer , what are you doing ?
Jennifer : I think -- I think that Jack is trying to reach me .
Patrick : Excuse me ?
Bonnie : That s impossible . Jack s dead . Well , he is .
Jennifer : I m telling you , it was Jack . Th - there was static on the line , but I know my husband s voice . He said my name . He told me that he loves me . It was him .
Julie : Jennifer , darling , let s go inside the house and sit down , think this through , okay ? Now , it -- it could have been a wrong number , or maybe a crank call .
Bonnie : Yeah , Jennifer , I get those all the time . Was he breathing heavy ? Did he ask you if you wanted --
Patrick : Hey , Mom , come on .
Jennifer : Oh , my gosh . I have to find him . He needs me . I have to find him . [ Gasps ] I have a message . Maybe it s from Jack .
Julie : Jennifer , I m sorry the message was nt from Jack --
Jennifer : My computer . Maybe Jack sent me an e - mail .
Bonnie : I really hate to say it , but I think Jennifer s starting to lose it .
Julie : Bonnie , do nt you have some work to do ? And you -- what are you doing hanging around here , Patrick ? I thought you were going to leave . I thought you were moving on .
Patrick : Yeah , well , Jennifer wanted me to stay with the baby coming .
Julie : Oh , really ? Seems to me she has plenty of family to take care of her .
Bonnie : Well , maybe she prefers a nice , strong young man to a grumpy old --
Patrick : All right , Mom , do nt start -- not now .
Bonnie : What the heck happened to you ? Where did you get those cuts and those bruises ?
Patrick : It s nothing .
Bonnie : No , do nt you nothing me . You tell me right now , mister , or I m going to ask Jennifer .
Patrick : No . You leave her alone . Look ... I got beat up , okay ? The guys who stole Jennifer s bearer bonds , they were nt too happy about me getting them back for her .
Bonnie : Oh . My son -- the hero . I should call up the paper , get them to do one of those Good Samaritan spreads on you . And you -- you should be ashamed of yourself , Julie Williams , accusing me and Patrick of stealing those bonds when he s the one who got them back , risking his life to do it .
Julie : Oh , there was no risk . He stole the bonds , then he brought them back .
Bonnie : You know what ? You --
Patrick : Hey , that s enough . Stop , both of you . This is not the time to be fighting . Jennifer needs us . Or am I the only one that s worried about her ?
Jennifer : I knew it . I knew it . It s from Jack !
Belle : Philip , how could you say that ? How could Shawn never coming back to me possibly be a good thing ?
Philip : Look , all I meant is that it kills me to see you hurting like this . And sometimes I wish you d forget about Shawn , because if he ca nt be with you now , when you re hurting , then he does nt deserve to be with you at all .
Belle : I can not give up on him . I have to believe that he did nt get my messages , and he does nt know about my mom . Otherwise , he would be here .
Philip : I just wish there was something I could say or something I could do to make you feel better .
Belle : Oh , Philip , just you being here makes me feel better . I do nt know what I would do without you .
Philip : You ll never have to find out .
Crystal : Mmm , I really enjoy fine champagne , and this stuff s the best . It s probably 20 bucks a bottle . Oh , I am so going to love living here .
Nicole : Stop saying that . You re not living here .
Crystal : Well , if this ai nt living , honey , I do nt know what is .
Nicole : Were nt you going for a swim ? I have things to do .
Crystal : First tell me what the story is with Brady .
Nicole : Just keep your hands off him .
Crystal : One of the servants told me he has a girlfriend -- some snooty opera babe touring in Europe .
Nicole : That s right . Chloe Lane . She s one obstacle standing between me and Brady , but an obstacle I m about to delete from his hard drive .
Brady : So you re still convinced that Nicole has something to do with my grandfather s murder ?
John : No doubt in my mind . Since she was conveniently handcuffed to you at the time , she had to have an accomplice . Those person s fingerprints were all over this house , even though the cops have nt been able to identify them yet .
Brady : So you re thinking Crystal .
John : She s the only friend of Nicole that I ve ever heard of .
Brady : See , I do nt think so .
John : Hmm ?
Brady : Crystal just got back into town . Nicole has nt seen her in years . They used to -- to work together a long time ago .
John : Ha ha . That s their story , huh ?
Brady : I know Crystal seems like --
John : Like she s been around the block a few times ?
Brady : She s had a hard life , but she s trying to turn it around with Nicole s help . Call me crazy -- I think it s pretty nice that Nicole took her in the way she did .
John : You re so much like your mother , you know that ? Always giving everybody the benefit of the doubt .
Brady : Is that really all bad ?
John : No . That s one of the things I loved most about Isabella -- always trying to find the good in everybody . But me -- I m a little more wary . In this case , you should be , too , cause I do nt trust Crystal , and I sure as hell do nt trust Nicole .
Brady : I ll be fine , okay ?
John : What , living with somebody , with two people who could be murderers ? I doubt it . Kid , what you need to do is hightail it out of this house of horrors now -- and the sooner the better .
Sami : Lucas . I did nt think you d be here .
Lucas : My mom asked me to stay .
Kate : I wanted a witness as well as protection .
Sami : What are you talking about ?
Kate : I know what you re up to , Sami , but I m not taking any chances .
Sami : You want to know what I m up to ? I ll tell you . I came to apologize .
Kate : What did you say ?
Sami : I said I wanted to apologize . I ve been terrible to you . I ve made these outrageous , ridiculous accusations that I know are nt true . Look , I m going to tell John that I m sorry , too -- sorry for everything .
Lucas : You really mean that , Sami ? Is this for real ?
Sami : I promise I do .
Kate : And what caused this sudden change of heart , Sami ?
Sami : Look , I know lately I ve been focused on revenge and wanting to , you know , um ... make you pay . I wanted to blame someone for my mother s death . But Julie helped me . She straightened me out .
Lucas : Julie , huh ?
Sami : Look , she took me to my mom s grave , and she -- she told me that I should ask her for advice .
Kate : Ask Marlena ?
Sami : I know it sounds crazy , but , uh ... she helped me look inside myself and ... see that I was filled with hate and rage over losing my mom and dad , that I was letting it consume me . Anyway , I m just asking for you to accept my apology . You re my dad s widow , the woman that he loved . You re also will s grandmother , the only one he has left , and , um , I m hoping that we can find some way to get past this , you know ? Just so that we can get along . So what do you say ? Are you willing to try ?
Kate : All right , Sami . Since I promised your father that I d try ...
Sami : Thank you . Thank you . I feel better already . My mom would be proud . Actually , my dad would , too . He d be proud of both of us . So , um , I should go . Bye , Lucas . Thanks again , Kate .
Kate : She s up to something . She has to be .
Lucas : Maybe she s just growing up .
Brady : Ha ha . That was an awesome ride , Dad . You know , it always amazes me how my old man s able to keep up .
John : Yeah , well , you know what amazes me is the way you are always able to change the subject . Kid , you got to move out of here . You got to get as far away from that black widow spider as you possibly can .
Brady : Dad !
John : You listen to me . If she murdered Victor , she is capable of anything .
Brady : All the more reason why I should stay here and keep an eye on her .
John : What the he kind of logic is that ?
Brady : It is important to me to carry on my grandfather s legacy , to make sure that his wishes are carried out , from -- from his business to his charitable foundation .
John : Let me tell you how this works -- until Victor s will shows up , if it ever does , Nicole holds all the purse strings .
Brady : Yes , you are correct , but my grandfather s surviving family members Shawn , Bo , Philip , and myself all have veto power . And as long as -- as we re united , there s no way in hell Nicole s going to be able to pull anything .
Crystal : So what s the plan , Nick ? I m dying to know .
Nicole : The plan is to get Chloe out of the picture once and for all .
Crystal : And you re going to do that how ?
Nicole : A very common little war tactic called divide and conquer .
Crystal : Hey , that s the name of one of my movies . Ha ha ha .
Nicole : Cute .
Crystal : So who gets divided , and who gets conquered ?
Nicole : All of them , starting with Brady s sister Belle .
Belle : Maybe Shawn sent me an e - mail , cause I have nt checked it in a while . Yes , I got something ! Oh , my God . I do nt believe it .
Julie : I am more worried about my cousin Jennifer than a couple of grifters like you could ev--
Jennifer : Everyone , Jack is alive . He really is . And now I have proof .
Philip : What is it ? Is it bad news ?
Belle : No , it s from the friends of the free clinic . They re setting up a women s health fund that includes free counseling for women in crisis that -- the fund s in my mom s name . I mean , that s where she used to volunteer her time .
Philip : That sounds great . What s the matter ?
Belle : It s just -- all these moving tributes that they ve written . I mean , my mom helped so many people , and unlike everyone else , they seem to still remember that .
Philip : I m sure they do .
Belle : You know what ? I want to help . I want to do my part for this cause . I think it would be the best way to honor my mom and remember who she really was .
Nicole : Ooh , if I know Belle , she will jump at the chance to help a charity founded in her sainted mama s name , and she will never know the request came from me .
Crystal : I do nt understand . How does Belle have anything to do with this ?
Nicole : She does nt , but Philip does , and he s madly in love with her , and he ll do anything to score points .
Crystal : What are you doing now ?
Nicole : Searching the Internet . I need one more worthy charity our noble marine can really get behind . Ha ha ha . Oh , yes . A fund to help the families of military men and women overseas .
Crystal : Oh , well , I ve helped plenty of military men right here .
Nicole : Oh , gosh . This one Bo wo nt be able to resist -- the foundation for first responders , supporting police , firefighters , and emergency services . Gosh , this ca nt miss . A few more anonymous e - mails , and I am almost there .
Crystal : Where ? How will any of this help you get Brady ? He still has a girlfriend .
Nicole : Ha ha . Not for long . When I start world war iii in the house of Kiriakis , that stupid opera house will be dead in the water . Ha ha ha .
Kate : You have to be kidding me . You can not be taking her side again .
Lucas : I thought you accepted her apology .
Kate : Because she was threatening to kill me a few hours ago . I thought perhaps this was the prudent course to take , Lucas .
Lucas : Wait a minute . I thought you were going to give her a chance , Mom .
Kate : Oh , for God s sakes , do nt tell me that you re believing her lies again , please .
Sami : Um , sorry to interrupt .
Kate : What is it now ?
Sami : I wanted to show you something -- something that I had planned on doing .
Kate : What is it , Sami ?
Sami : A letter that I wrote . I was going to anonymously send it to all of your business associates .
Kate : And what s in the letter , Sami ?
Sami : Basically , it exposes you as ... Stefano s whore .
Kate : What ?
Lucas : Are you crazy or something ?
Sami : Look , you did nt let me finish . I said that that s what I was going to do . But that was before ... before I realized how wrong I is . And , anyway , I wanted to give the letter to you . It s the only copy . I thought you d want to destroy it . I m really sorry , Kate . I m ashamed of myself for ... wanting to do something that would be so hurtful , and ... I guess since I m making amends , I wanted to get everything off my chest . I hope you can forgive me .
Jennifer : It s true . I really have proof that Jack is alive .
Julie : Honey ... what kind of proof ?
Jennifer : Julie , I got an audio message on my computer , and it was static - y just like the phone , but I know that it was Jack . He said some really personal things that only Jack would know .
Patrick : Jennifer , are you sure that s really what you heard ?
Jennifer : Yes .
Julie : Darling , darling , maybe ... it was wishful thinking . You said it was a very , very static - y message . Jennifer , I know what I m talking about . Last night , I dreamed of Doug , and it was so real . I saw him , and I heard him . He was singing at Alice s , and Alice s was nt a cowboy western bar . It was this beautiful , elegant cabaret . I was so happy . I called up hope , and I realized it was just a dream .
Jennifer : Julie , look at me . This is not a dream . It -- it s Jack . I heard his voice .
Bonnie : This is one of your scams , is nt it ?
Patrick : What ?
Bonnie : What are you really up to with Jennifer ? I m confused .
Julie : I still say there s a logical explanation .
Jennifer : Julie , come over here and take a look at this . Right here -- the new baby book .
Julie : How can this be ? How can Jack have written a letter to the baby ?
Jennifer : Patrick is actually the one who wrote the letter , but this is exactly what Jack would have written .
Julie : Why would Patrick be writing to your baby -- to Jack s baby ? Why ?
Jennifer : Because he was trying to make me feel better -- trying to make me feel like part of Jack was still here .
Julie : I think he s trying to manipulate you , Jennifer .
Jennifer : Manipulate me ?
Julie : I ve said it before , I ll say it again -- there is no difference between Patrick and that gold - digging mother of his . They re just a couple of con artists , Jennifer . Oh , my God , what if they re behind these voices that you re hearing ?
Jennifer : What ? Julie , that is ridiculous . Besides , what would they have to gain ? And I already told you , Jack said only things that he would have known .
Bonnie : If this is the scam , I have to say it s pretty lame . Honey , the last thing you want is that little girl thinking that her husband is still alive . What s that gon na get you ?
Patrick : I had nothing to do with this , Mom . I m not the one making her hear voices .
Bonnie : But you do agree with me . You think it s a scam . And what s more , you know who s behind it .
Brady : Look , Dad , I know with everything that s happened , you re -- you re worried about me , but do nt be . I can handle Nicole .
John : Vic said the same thing . You take care of yourself , kid .
Crystal : Are you sure this is gon na work ?
Nicole : Trust me , before the day is out , Victor s family will be at each other s throats .
Brady : Really . Cause that s news to me .
Sami : So , how about it , Kate ? Do you think you can forgive me ?
Kate : Well , since you never actually did it -- you never made your hateful poisoned - pen letter public -- I guess there s really nothing to forgive , now , is there , Sami ?
Sami : Thank you .
Kate : But I want you to know I m not buying this sudden turnaround .
Sami : You know , I ... was at my parents grave earlier , and ... it reminded me of what kind of people they were , and ... how much they taught me -- the kind of person they wanted me to become . Well , that s ... what I want to do . I want to live up to that dream . I just wish that I had done it while they were still alive . But it s -- it s never too late , right ? At least I hope it s not .
Kate : I hope for both of their sakes that you re sincere . Because all they ever wanted was for you to be happy , in spite of the many , many times you disappointed them , Sami .
Sami : I know that . I know . And I m gon na show them and you -- both of you -- that I m sincere . I m going to show you all that I can become a different person from here on out . And I hope you give me a chance to prove that . Excuse me .
Kate : Oh , please ! Do nt tell me you just bought that pitiful performance .
Julie : Jennifer , I found your prenatal vitamins .
Jennifer : Thank you . I keep forgetting to take them .
Julie : And I also found this .
Jennifer : My diary ?
Julie : It was lying wide open on your nightstand where bonnie or Patrick could read it and find out exactly what they should say in a message from Jack .
Bonnie : You know what s really going on here . Someone is setting her up .
Patrick : Mom , I told you , I would do anything to protect Jennifer , and I meant it .
Bonnie : Fine . You re not gon na level with me . Keep your little secrets . I just pray that whatever it is you re mixed up in -- nobody else gets hurt , especially not my baby boy .
Patrick : Yeah .
Man : Jennifer Deveraux s time is up . We re taking her out .
Patrick : Over my dead body .
Man : That can be arranged , too .
Nicole : Crystal , would you ... excuse us , please ? I d like to speak to Brady in private .
Crystal : Sure . I was just gon na take a dip anyway .
Nicole : Ahem .
Brady : Okay , let s have it . What s this about my family being at each other s throats ?
Nicole : I hate to be the one to disillusion you , Brady , but you re gon na have to face the truth at some point .
Brady : Truth -- what truth is that ?
Nicole : As you know , Victor s heirs are ... meeting later today to decide how to apportion funds for his charitable foundation .
Brady : Right , and I m not anticipating any problems .
Nicole : No , and in an ideal world , there would nt be . But , sadly , when ... someone like Victor Kiriakis dies without a will and gazillions of dollars are at stake , families -- even ones that are close -- can get a little funny .
Brady : Yeah , well , not my family . There s going to be no trouble unless you have some sort of hidden agenda . Do you , Nicole ?
Philip : You know what ? You re right . And what better way to honor your mom than by supporting the cause that was close to her heart ? In fact , I d like to help , too .
Belle : Really ? You mean you d contribute ?
Philip : Of course . I m sure my father s estate would be more than happy to make a sizable donation through the Kiriakis foundation .
Belle : Oh , my God , Philip , that s so generous of you !
Philip : But ... you have to do me one favor , and before I tell you what it is , you have to promise me that you re going to say yes .
Kate : Oh , my God , Lucas , please tell me -- tell me that you do nt believe that act .
Lucas : What ? What if it s true , huh ? Mom , why would she even bother if she did nt want to make things right ?
Kate : You really believe that ?
Lucas : I do nt know . I do nt know what I believe , but I got ta find out .
Kate : Where are you going ? Oh , God !
John : Bad time ?
Kate : No , no , no ! My son is just about to make the biggest mistake of his life .
Lucas : Hey . We need to talk .
Sami : I guess you were kind of surprised by what happened in there .
Lucas : I m going to ask you something . My mom and I overheard you at the cemetery today when you vowed to get revenge on her and John .
Sami : Well , yeah , but --
Lucas : No , no , no buts . You also said you were nt serious about me , that I was a distraction . Am I ? I m a distraction ? Is that what I am ? Did you mean that ? You ve been lying to me all this time ?
John : Well , you re right . It was quite an about - face .
Kate : No kidding . But I do nt trust her . Sami is definitely up to something .
John : Well , I do nt trust her , either . God knows I would like to believe that she has changed . It would be the one good thing that came out of her mother s death .
Sami : Oh , Lucas , I am so sorry that you heard that . Of course it s not true . I was just being hateful again . You know , lashing out because I was angry and ... I was frustrated . In that moment , I had decided that revenge was more important to me than anything else , including finding love -- something else that I was wrong about . Please tell me that you believe me when I say that I did nt mean .
Lucas : I do nt know , Sami . You and your lies ... your deception in the past ... all the schemes you ve pulled ... I just do nt know .
Sami : Look , I know why you do nt trust me , okay ? For a long time it was hard for me . I was afraid of giving myself to you . I do nt need revenge . I need love . I ca nt lose it again . I need you , Lucas . Please help me . I need you to be with me so you can help me be a better person . I need you to believe in me .
Lucas : I want to believe in you . And I will . I will one more time . But if you make me regret it , Sami -- if I find out -- if I find out you re up to something , that s it . We re finished . I m telling you , you re on your own .
Sami : I promise you that you wo nt regret it .
Lucas : I hope not . I hope this is the real you . There might be a chance for us .
Sami : It is . Everything s going to be different from now on . You ll see .
Brady : What the hell kind of game are you playing , Nicole ? Are you trying to turn me against my family by making me doubt them ? It s not gon na happen , you know that .
Nicole : I m sorry , Brady . I did nt mean to upset you . I was just trying to prepare you for the worst - case scenario , and if I am wrong , that is great . I d be the happiest person in the world if we could all agree on how best to honor your grandfather s memory . And I plan to do whatever I can to that end . I just hope the rest of your family does nt disappoint you .
Belle : Philip , you ve been so good to me . Of course I ll do you a favor . What is it ?
Philip : Well , we re meeting later on to discuss plans for my father s foundation money , and I d like you to come with me to the mansion . That way , we can pitch this charity in honor of your mother .
Belle : That s so sweet of you . It s a great idea . I do nt know what to say . So I ll just hug you again and say thank you !
Philip : Come on , you do nt have to thank me . I d do anything for you . I love you .
Bonnie : Ahem . Do nt mind me . I m just gon na finish up here cleaning Jennifer s room . Some of us have to work for a living .
Julie : I wonder if bonnie was nt up there earlier , snooping around in your diary .
Jennifer : Julie , please .
Julie : Well , it s possible . She and Patrick could be in cahoots -- both trying to get their hands on your inheritance , Jennifer .
Jennifer : No , no , I do nt believe that -- not for a minute . I know that it was Jack who contacted me . I heard his voice , Julie .
Julie : Sweetheart , how is it possible ? Jack is dead .
Patrick : [ Thinking ] And unless I find some way to stop it , Jennifer , you could be next .
Next on Days Of Our Lives
Belle : You deserve to be happy , and so does the woman that you re meant to spend the rest of your life with .
Philip : Belle .
Bo : You ve been defending that lying bitch all along .
Brady : Have nt you ever heard of innocent until proven guilty ?
Crystal : Mr. Black ...
John : May I buy you a drink ?
Crystal : Can you ever .
Abe : I ve been here longer than anyone . If we do nt get home soon , there may be nothing to go home to .

John : Yeah ?
Natalie : Hey , I put a rush on those prints from the John Doe that you found at Dorian s , and I looked over the CSU s preliminary report from the scene , and honestly there s nothing out of the ordinary .
John : Thanks for trying .
Natalie : What s that ?
John : Oh , this was in Manning s office at the Sun .
Natalie : Does the file have anything to do with the body found at Dorian Lord s ?
Blair : Oh , there you are , finally . Hey , did you just come from Dorian s ?
Jack : Yeah . Carl drove me .
Blair : Great . Is she with you ?
Jack : No . She s running late , but she said not to worry . Would nt miss this party for anything .

Dorian : He ll be fired . What do you want ?
Echo : I came to see your husband .
David : Oh , Viki , thank God I finally found you .
Viki : David , look , I m just here to pick up some extra dessert for Sam s birthday party .
David : But you said you were gon na help me figure out who s sabotaging me with Dorian .
Viki : And I will , so why do nt you go think about who it could be , and then , you know , well--
David : Make a list . Done . All the people who might have a personal grudge against me . You re at the top of the list .
Viki : Me ?
David : Of course you . Did you forget that I pretended to be your brother Circa 94 ?
Todd : Téa . Téa . Where is the entertainment ?
Téa : Oh , relax . Spider - man will be here any second , all right ?

Téa : Hey , it s a party . Relax a little , ok ?
Todd : I m fine .
Téa : What did you and Tomás really talk about when I was in the shower ?
Baz : See ? There s something going on .
Starr : Let s just hope that you re wrong about that , ok ? I ve been dealing with too much stuff with my dad already . My mom really likes your dad .
Blair : So are you gon na stick around ?
Tomás : Yeah . I heard there ll be cake .
Blair : Well , that is the draw .
Tomás : Mind if I spend the day with you and your son ?
Blair : I d love that .

Nate : Dani , I m sorry . I ca nt make it to Sam s party .
Dani : Why not ?
Sam : What did you get me ?
Jack : It s a surprise .
Sam : Dad said there s a big surprise on the way .
Todd : It s about time you showed up . What the hell took you so long ? Oh , you re in character . All right , get in there and entertain my son , and do it good . I can replace you like that .
Nate : I have to work a double shift .
Dani : Oh , you re kidding . But that s good to have the hours , right ?
Nate : Yeah . Yeah , it is .
Dani : I can bring you a piece of cake on your break .
Nate : No , no . Do nt do that . I ll be too busy tonight to take a break , so just stay with your family .
Dani : Ok . You should see Sam right now . He s totally casing his presents .
Nate : I ll bet . Have a good time , ok ?
Dani : I will . I ll miss you . Call me later .
Nate : Yeah . Bye .
Deanna : You did the right thing .
Nate : I lied to Dani . That is never the right thing .
Deanna : Well , you could nt tell her we d be at the Minute Man .
Nate : No , but still ... if she ever found out ...
Deanna : Do nt worry . What happens at the Minute Man stays at the Minute Man .
Destiny : You re a dog , Nate Salinger . How can you be cheating on my girl ?
Dorian : You want to see my husband ? You do nt even know my husband . Or do you ?
Echo : No . We ve never met .
Dorian : Well , then , what business do you have with him ?
Echo : I found something that belongs to him .
Dorian : Where ?
Echo : The Buchanan mansion . I m living there now with Rex , and I found a DVD of David s audition reel in my room .
Dorian : Hmm . Hand it over and leave .
Echo : No . I d rather hand it to him .
Dorian : He s not here .
Echo : Maybe I can come back later .
Dorian : I want you off my property !
Echo : Maybe I could find him someplace else ?
Dorian : I do nt know where he is ! And he s not coming back here .
David : There s Todd . He s still mad at me about that business with Jack and the nuns .
Viki : No . You re not on Todd s radar , trust me .
David : Then there s your sister Tina .
Viki : She has no radar .
David : And of course there s Clint . He was busy dying , but he did have a cell phone and a very scary contact list . I m gon na circle his name . And then there s Langston .
Viki : How is that possible ?
David : I may have changed a few lines in Vicker man-- or all of them .
Dani : Hey , how s the birthday boy doing ? Hey , Des . Tell me you changed your mind .
Destiny : Huh ?
Dani : You re coming to Sam s party , right ? Des ? Where are you ?
Destiny : The Buenos Días .
Dani : Is something wrong ?
Destiny : So wrong I do nt even know how to tell you .
Sam : Spider - man !
Téa : All right ! See ? He s perfect .
Blair : You re right , he s perfect . Where did you find him ?
Natalie : Sorry . You want me to go .
John : No . No , it s -- it s not you . We just do nt know much yet .
Natalie : No one s reported him missing ? That means no name , no motive .
John : We got an eyewitness , sort of .
Natalie : You re kidding .
John : Sam Manning .
Natalie : Wow . So my little cousin saw the shooting ?
John : Blair brought him in to have him tell me about this guy who s been hanging around the property that Sam s become friendly with .
Natalie : Our John Doe ?
John : No . No . I showed him a picture of our Vic to see if that was his friend , and he told me no . That was the guy that tried to shoot him .
Natalie : Oh , God .
John : I know , but he seemed real calm about everything . You know , maybe it was nt real to him , sort of like a video game or a movie or something .
Natalie : So what happened ?
John : Well , he said John Doe was there and he was about to shoot him but his friend was there , too , and he shot John Doe instead .
Natalie : Does this friend have a name , or could Sam -- I do nt know -- describe him ?
John : Well , he did better than that . He IDd him from a picture .
Natalie : Really ? Who is it ?
John : This guy .
Blair : Sam , you re crushing Spider - man s leg .
Sam : I ca nt crush him . He s Spider - man .
Starr : I know . You are Sam s hero . He knows everything about you .
Tomás : I do nt believe that .
Sam : Bet me money .
Starr : Oh , yeah ? What s Spider - man s real name ?
Sam : Peter Parker .
Jack : What s his best weapon ?
Sam : He can shoot webs and climb walls . He has Spidey sense .
Téa : Should I know what that is ?
Jack : Duh .
Blair : Yeah , duh , Téa .
Sam : Spidey sense is how he knows there s danger . See ? He s using it right now . Do you feel your Spidey sense ?
Blair : Come on , Spidey . Tell him . Tell him that there is no danger here .
Starr : Mom , Spider - man does nt talk .
Téa : Duh .
Starr : You know , we need to have a movie night so that you guys can catch up on these things .
Jack : Sam does nt even watch the movies . It s those lame cartoons .
Starr : Do nt call them lame .
Sam : Spider - man , show me your web shooter .
Blair : Uh - oh . Téa , I need your help .
Tomás : Looks like you made your son very happy .
Todd : It must be very confusing for you . I ll do anything for my family , Tomás ... just like you .
Baz : Yeah . They re best buds .
Starr : It does nt look bad .
Baz : That s because there are witnesses . You know they re 5 minutes away from throwing down on each other .
Starr : Ok , who cares ? Can we just enjoy the peace ?
Baz : They re such hypocrites .
Starr : You are looking for a reason to hate your dad .
Baz : I did nt have to look too hard . I saw what I saw this morning , and I wo nt stop looking .
Todd : Hey , how s your head ?
Jack : Better . But I d like to give the son of a bitch who knocked me out--
Todd : Hey , hey , hey . Watch your language . Your mom s here . Do nt give her a reason to ask questions .
Jack : She does nt know what happened .
Todd : Good .
Jack : You know she d never let me back in the office .
Todd : I would nt either if I did nt know who did it . Do nt worry . We ll get him .
Destiny : Dani ?
Dani : Yeah , hang on . It s getting kind of loud .
Destiny : The party started ?
Dani : Yeah , but it s ok . I can talk .
Destiny : No . You re busy .
Dani : Come on . If you have something to tell me .
Destiny : No , seriously , it s ok . I have to go anyway . I ll talk to you later .
Starr : What s going on ?
Dani : I need to go see Destiny . If Sam misses me , just tell him I ll be back before he blows out his candles .
Destiny : Maybe I should have told her .
David : The Church of Scientology .
Viki : David , this list--
David : The Buddhists . They re still not comfortable with my interpretation of the noble eightfold path . Threefold is too many .
Viki : David--
David : The Hell s Angels . The Writers Guild . The Have - a - Seat Corporation , Marketing division only .
Viki : David , this is an afternoon I will never get back .
David : Viki , I am simply trying to be thorough here .
Viki : And the list is very impressive . There are no doubt many , many enemies that you ve made in your life , ok ? But is nt it likely that the culprit is some woman that you spurned , someone that you left for Dorian who feels very rejected and wants to lash out , hmm ?
David : Brings us right back to you , Viki .
Echo : Oh , Dorian . That s terrible .
Dorian : For whom ? I kicked him out .
Echo : I saw something in the paper about him and that actress -- Corinthia ?
Dorian : Ionia . Third - rate actress , first - class slut . But why am I talking to you about this , of all people ?
Echo : Come on . You do nt think I know what it s like to have your heart broken ?
Natalie : So Sam thinks that his dad shot our John Doe ?
John : No . Sam thinks that guy shot John Doe .
Natalie : Ok , well , maybe that s just Sam saying that Todd did it without saying it .
John : You know , that s what Blair thought , too . But Manning s got an airtight alibi , and Sam did nt seem to know that his father used to look like that . I mean , he never referenced that photo as his father .
Natalie : Maybe Sam was a little more shaken up than you thought . He could have been confused .
John : He did nt seem confused .
Natalie : Huh . Well , maybe he was lying . I mean , after all , he is Jack s brother , and it would nt be the first time one of the Manning boys has lied to the Police .
Jack : You know who knocked me out ?
Todd : It had to be someone from Origami Cogs , so I put all my people on it . We ll make him pay .
Old Todd : Origami Cogs ?
Téa : The guest of honor seems to be enjoying himself .
Blair : I really hope so .
Téa : What s wrong ?
Blair : We spent the morning down at the Police station .
Téa : You and Sam ?
Blair : Yep .
Téa : Why ?
Blair : I wanted John to talk to Sam about the dead body that we found out by la Boulaie s pool .
Téa : What ? !
Blair : Just keep it down .
Téa : A dead body by la Boulaie s pool ?
Blair : Yeah . It was horrible , Téa .
Téa : Do you know who it was ?
Blair : No . We do nt even know who shot him .
Téa : Shot him ?
Blair : Téa , really . Kids are in there .
Téa : Ok . Have you told Todd about this ?
Blair : No , not yet .
Téa : Blair , you have to tell him .
Blair : Oh , right . Like he told me when Jack was arrested ?
Téa : Oh , so this is tit for tat ?
Blair : No . I m gon na tell Todd . I ll tell him after the party , all right ? I just found out myself .
Téa : But why did you take Sam down to the Police station ? Did he find the body ?
Blair : No , but he did witness the shooting .
Téa : Oh , my God .
Blair : I know . It s awful .
Téa : So some stranger just happened to be shot on your property in front of your son ?
Blair : And I thank God that Sam was nt hurt .
Téa : Wait . Blair , do you think Sam s imaginary friend could be the dead body ?
Blair : No , but--
Téa : I do nt know how much more of this I can take .
Blair : There s a lot more you do nt know . Sam s imaginary friend , the one with the line on his face ?
Starr : Mom , we need a camera .
Blair : Oh , it s in my purse right there .
Starr : I want to take pictures of Sam with Spider - man .
Blair : Great .
Sam : Like this . Lots of sun , some rain and that s how they get this big and beautiful .
Viki : David , you did not jilt me , ok ? There was never anything between us .
David : It was sub - textual--
Viki : Besides , I want you and Dorian to be together . I would never undermine your relationship . Now I really have to get to Sam s birthday party .
David : No , no . Sam is going to have plenty of other birthdays . I ve only got one Dorian , and I might lose her if I do nt figure this out . Oh ! What about Addie ? Those two always fought over me .
Viki : Not in the way you hope . Besides , Addie wants Dorian to be happy . That s it !
David : What ?
Viki : Perhaps you are not the target , David . What if someone is trying to hurt Dorian ?
Dorian : Is this you trying to be my friend ? How revolting .
Echo : Oh , it actually shocks the hell out of me , too . I probably should nt drink .
Dorian : Back on the sauce again , are you ?
Echo : Oh , come on . A bloody Mary at brunch -- or two .
Dorian : Oh , that explains how you had the nerve to show up here . You did nt want to see David . That s the lamest excuse I ever heard .
Echo : Look , I saw the paper . I thought you could use a friend , and I do have the DVD .
Dorian : How desperate do you think I am ? I have lots of friends .
Echo : Really ? Oh , that s true . I bet your good friend , Viki has been a big help . Has nt she ?
Dorian : Viki has , um , been occupied with things -- you know , with Clint being so sick .
Echo : Right . That s really no excuse , Dorian . This is the time you need to call on friends . You lose the man you love at this point in your life ?
Dorian : And you know all about losing men , do nt you ?
Echo : Yeah , I do , because of you and your pal , Viki .
Dorian : She s not my pal .
Echo : I could have told you that .
Dorian : It s your own fault . If you had kept your mouth shut about how I got that tape of you and Clint , none of this would have happened .
Echo : And Viki would never have been able to find another reason to judge you ?
Viki : When did all this trouble start ?
David : In L.A. Is nt that where trouble always starts ? Ionia started hitting on me during the making of Vicker man . She showed up in my trailer .
Viki : But you and Dorian were fine after Los Angeles .
David : There , Ionia was on my lap , topless , and suddenly there were all these completely misleading photos of us in the paper .
Viki : Photos . Photos . Of course .
David : Of course what ?
Dani : Ok . What s up ?
Destiny : What are you doing here ?
Dani : Being a friend .
Destiny : You should be a sister .
Dani : Look , Spider - man came to the party . Trust me , Sam has nt even noticed I m not there .
Destiny : I still feel bad . Go on home .
Dani : No ! Look , you ve had a really hard time ever since Matthew got hurt , and you sounded really upset on the phone .
Destiny : Not for myself .
Dani : Ok . Who are you upset for ?
Destiny : Forget it .
Dani : Say that one more time and I m gon na have to find a new friend . Seriously . Seriously , just tell me what s wrong .
Destiny : I was just thinking about Matthew , and nobody can help that . So go on back to the party .
Dani : Just promise me you ll talk about it someday before it drives you crazy .
Destiny : I will .
Dani : Oh , have you seen Nate ?
Destiny : No .
Dani : He must be in the kitchen .
Destiny : He s not here .
Dani : What ?
Destiny : Nate s not here .
Dani : No , no . He s working a double shift .
Destiny : He s not working , Dani . He left here with Deanna .
Rick : Hey ! Come on in . Come on . The lights are getting set now . The cameraman will be here in a few minutes , and then it s lights , camera , and action .
Nate : So how does this work ?
Rick : How does this work ? Have you ever seen adult entertainment ? You take your clothes off , you have sex .
John : Thank you . Sure you do nt want any coffee ?
Natalie : John .
John : Hmm ?
Natalie : I know you .
John : Oh .
Natalie : You ve got that look . Tell me what you re thinking .
John : I wish I could . But all we got is this photo .
Natalie : And this file . This was in Todd s office ?
John : Yeah .
Natalie : What kind of encryption is this ?
John : We do nt know .
Natalie : Why would my uncle have something that s so heavily encoded ?
John : Good question . You want to take a shot at it ?
Natalie : Well , I only learned basic decryption , although I can give it a try . It would be nice if my boss would spring for me to go to Quantico because I could probably crack this in a day .
John : I ll put in a word with him .
Natalie : Thank you .
John : Yeah ? Lieutenant .
Lieutenant : We got a hit on John Doe s prints .
John : Thank you , Sullivan .
Sullivan : Not a problem .
John : All right . Let s see who this guy is .
Téa : Ooh , I think Spider - man s after you . Want to go play bad guy ?
Tomás : I m innocent , I swear .
Téa : Uh - huh .
Blair : All right , you take the camera . All right . Sam , you ready to smile ?
Sam : Spiders do nt smile .
Blair : Yes , they do if Moms ask them to .
Starr : Actually , arachnids do nt have teeth .

Téa : Where s Dani ?
Dani : Why would Nate say that he s working if he s not ? You think he s just trying to blow off the birthday party ?
Destiny : I do nt think so .
Dani : All he had to do was tell me . And why did he leave with Deanna ?
Destiny : Dani , what are you doing ?
Dani : I m calling him .
Destiny : I would nt do that .
Dani : There s got to be a good reason why he just took off .
Rick : Put that thing on vibrate . We want to do this in one take .
Nate : Um , so what s the story ?
Rick : I need you for your sex , kid . You do nt get story approval .
Nate : No , no . It s just that it might help me get into character .
Rick : Ok . Your character is a guy who put the Police commissioner s kid in a coma who s having sex with a girl who really , really wants to find her long- lost mother . Does that work for you two ? Right ?
Dani : He did nt answer . Maybe I ll just go over to his mom s .
Destiny : He s not there .
Dani : Where is he ?
Destiny : Not at home .
Dani : Destiny , if you know where Nate is , tell me .
Destiny : He went to a motel with Deanna .
David : You know who s behind the home - wrecking ?
Viki : I think so , yes , and she s an old pro at it .
Echo : You lose the man you love and your best friend . That s tough .
Dorian : Yes , it is .
Echo : Well , enjoy your party .
Dorian : That s it ?
Echo : You want me off your property , right ?
Dorian : And you got what you came for , did nt you ? You knew David was nt here .
Echo : No , I did nt .
Dorian : Oh , yes , and you saw exactly what you wanted to see -- that I have lost my husband and my best friend .
Echo : The best friend was an unexpected bonus .
Dorian : You viper .
Echo : Is that supposed to sting , coming from you ?
Dorian : A tramp is a tramp , even when she s toting a camera . A camera . Ha ha ! You re a photographer .
Viki : Now this makes so much more sense .
David : I m glad it does for you .
Viki : Especially the pictures . And she s awfully good at crawling around in the dirt . And she blames Dorian even more than she blames me because Dorian s the one who got the proof .
David : The proof ?
Viki : The proof that destroyed her relationship with the man that she wanted .
David : Oh . I m sorry . Who are we talking about ?
Dorian : It was you all along .
Echo : I really do have to go .
Dorian : Pas si vite , chérie . You re the one who took those pictures of David and what s - her - name , are nt you ?
Echo : A girl s got to eat .
Dorian : You vicious--
Echo : I saw an opportunity .
Dorian : Yes , yes , yes . Lurking in the bushes where you just conveniently happened to be ? You set us all up .
Echo : Do you think I forced your boy toy to grope another woman ? How could I do that ?
Dorian : David swore up and down that he was set up .
Echo : But you knew better than that .
Dorian : You conniving whore .
Echo : Payback s a bitch , is nt it ? You could have left me and Charlie alone , but you did nt . He did nt belong to Viki . That was obvious . And we were happy together until you butted in !
Dorian : You destroyed your own relationship with chuckles . Yeah , that was all your own fault .
Echo : Well , is nt it a shame that now you know exactly how it feels ?
Dorian : You re not gon na destroy my relationship with David .
Echo : Too late . I already have .
David : Echo DiSavoy , professional home - wrecker .
Viki : I m afraid so . She was very , very angry with Dorian for helping me to expose her lies to Charlie , and she swore she would get back at us -- both of us . This is so like her . Do you know something ? I ll bet that s exactly what she was doing when I caught her on the telephone the other day . She was plotting .
David : And the reason you decided not to tell me ?
Viki : I did nt hear what she was planning , and stupidly , I did nt think she could do much more damage , but it is just like her .
David : We ve got to tell Dorian .
Viki : No , you re gon na tell Dorian . I m going to Sam s party .
David : No . Send Sam an extra present .
Viki : David , this can wait until tomorrow .
David : Absolutely not . Look , Dorian s got all my clothing at her house near open flame and scissors . Please , Viki , I need you to go with me .
Viki : For the sake of your wardrobe ?
David : For the sake of true love . Look , Dorian is really , really mad . I m not gon na get past the front door without backup . You know how Dorian can get when she s really mad .
Dorian : You bitch !
Echo : Oh , you re gon na be sorry you did that .
Dorian : I m going to be sorry ?
Echo : Yes . You re gon na be sorry .
Dorian : You are gon na be sorry ! I ve just begun to fight .
Dani : Nate and Deanna went to a motel ?
Destiny : The Minute Man .
Nate : Hey , I m sorry I got you into this .
Deanna : I m the one who met this sleaze in the first place .
Nate : Are you sure this is the only way to get that file on your mom ?
Deanna : Today , I m glad she does nt know me . Deanna Forbes -- porn star .
Nate : Hey , um , what was your first pet s name ?
Deanna : I had a cat named China .
Nate : Ok , and what street did you grow up on ?
Deanna : Lake Drive .
Nate : That s it . That s your porn name -- China Lake . Mine is , uh , Buster Ridge .
Deanna : Porn names ?
Nate : It wo nt be us . It ll just be these other people . That s how we do it . Nobody will find out .
Dani : Oh , my God .
Destiny : Where are you going ?
Dani : Where do you think I m going ? I m going to the Minute Man motel !
Natalie : Tomás Delgado had a CIA file ?
John : No , not under his own name , but when I read his fingerprints , the system spit out that . So now we have Manning , Delgado , and John Doe all with encrypted CIA files .
Natalie : So we just need the thread that connects them . You thought that Tomás tried to shoot Todd ?
John : Mmm , but Todd cleared him .
Natalie : Hmm . Then there s this guy . I do nt see the connection .
John : It s right there in your hands .
Starr : Dani had to go see Destiny .
Todd : Forget her . We ll put her in later .
Blair : All right . Everybody smile . Come on . Do nt blink .
Todd : Go ahead .
Blair : Looks good .
Todd : Take the picture ! Hey ! Shoot !
Old Todd : My pleasure .
Blair : Perfect . All right . Great . We re done with that . Now we ve got one more thing we ve got to do . Everybody knows what they ve got to do , so let s go . Come on , come on . One more big surprise . Spidey , will you watch Sam for just a minute ? Thanks . Come on , hurry . Hurry
Sam : What do you want to do now ?
Rick : Come on . Wet your lips , like -- wet your lips . Come on . Give me a little kitten .
Deanna : I want to scratch your eyes out .
Rick : Ok . Go with tiger . Yeah , that works . But save some of that heat for your partner in crime . Come on , stud , get out here already !
David : Dorian ! Dorian , come out , baby . It was all a setup . Viki figured it out . Hey , it was Echo !
Viki : David , look .
David : This is nt good .
Rick : That s too wide . Zoom in . Yeah . You guys are smoking hot , almost ready for your wardrobe .
Nate : So there s wardrobe ?
Rick : Yeah . Do nt worry . You wo nt be wearing it long . Ok , we re gon na shoot in 5 . 5 . Yeah . These two are ready to go .
Dani : I do nt even want to know what Nate and Deanna are doing .
Rick : We re good to go , right ?
Nate : Are nt you going to answer that ?
John : Manning s file has a picture of how he used to look . Delgado s file has pictures of how Manning used to look .
Natalie : How do you know ?
John : Téa told me . Sam says our John Doe was shot by a guy who looks like Manning used to . That s it . That s our connection .

You are a helpful, respectful and honest assistant. Your task is to summarize the following dialogue. Your answer should be based on the provided dialogue only.
### Dialogue:
Sheila : I d give anything to not be here , to have to tell you this , but I care about you , Eric , and the thought of Ridge and Quinn deceiving such a good , trusting man ... look , I am so sorry , but your son and your wife are having an affair .
Quinn : I ca nt keep living like this . We ve been lying to your father for months . It s got to stop .
Ridge : You re gon na have to think very clearly about the consequences .
Quinn : I understand the consequences ! I could lose my husband , you could lose your father !
Ridge : And for what ? Because Sheila carter may know something ?
Quinn : What if she does ? I ca nt have Eric hear it from her first . He needs to hear it from me , from us ! And I do nt even know if we can get him to understand , but he s not going to understand if he hears it from Sheila first ! Come on , Ridge . We owe your father the truth .
Thomas : We did it . We got the challenge in Monte Carlo . It s amazing . This is -- ahh , this is great !
Sally : Yes ! Spectra fashions in one corner , and in the other ...
Thomas : What s with all the independence day decorations ? Somebody got really festive .
Sally : Yeah , it s grams . It s her favorite holiday .
Thomas : Huh .
Sally : She always throws a big bash , complete with fireworks .
Thomas : Oh ?
Sally : Mm - hmm . Mm ! Sally girl , I gave all the employees the day off . Party s at my place . You and Tommy boy get over here pronto ! We ve got lots to celebrate .
Thomas : Mm .
Sally : Grams .
Thomas : We do have a lot to celebrate .
R.J. : [ Chuckles ] I m serious . You should have been in the calendar shoot .
Coco : Um , no . No !
R.J. : Yes ! Come on , the camera loves you .
Coco : Oh ! It s grams . Uh , oh , she s just checking to make sure that we re still going to the cookout .
R.J. : [ Laughs ] Wait . You were serious ? And she actually dresses up like the statue of liberty ?
Coco : Every year since I can remember . Yeah . It s -- it s insane .
R.J. : Yeah ... [ Laughs ] Hey , you okay ?
Coco : Yeah . Yeah , I m just -- I m still thinking about earlier . I ca nt get over what Thomas and sally pulled . Especially my sister .
R.J. : I m pretty sure it was Thomas idea , not sally s .
Coco : Yeah , but she did nt have to go along with it . I do nt think she realizes how lucky she is . Like , your family could have put her in jail . But Spectra is alive and well because of Thomas . Like , he really forgave her for what she did .
R.J. : You have , too , right ? I mean , after that spy - camera thing ?
Coco : Yeah . Yeah . But I would have hoped that she learned from that experience .
R.J. : You do nt think she has ?
Coco : Well , she did nt have to be a part of what Thomas did . But she was , and call me naive , but I guess I just would have expected more from my sister .
Sally : Well , that was some kiss .
Thomas : Well , it s some day . I mean , it s the birthday of our country and a really big win for Spectra .
Sally : Yes , you did get the best of the princess .
Thomas : That was not my goal . I was just challenging her , but that was a fringe benefit . Absolutely . I have to say , though , I m really impressed with the way that Steffy handled herself . You know , once the cameras were rolling and she was live with Jarrett , it was great . She was a little annoyed once everything stopped , but , uh ... I think the ice is thawing between us , and she s beginning to accept my choice . My choice being you .
Ridge : The truth ? Well , the truth is we kissed a few times .
Quinn : And Sheila could make Eric believe otherwise .
Ridge : Sheila does nt know anything !
Quinn : What if she knows more than what we think she does ? She could go to Eric and she could --
Ridge : Did she say she was gon na do that ?
Quinn : The point is , she thinks she s doing what s best for him . She obviously still cares about him . She probably even wants him back !
Ridge : Well , he wants nothing to do with her because she is delusional .
Quinn : Maybe she is . Step one in her delusion -- get rid of the current wife . [ Sighs ] Ridge ... how -- how could we have put ourselves in this position ?
Sheila : I can only imagine how much this hurts , Eric , to believe that a woman that you thought was loyal , is nt , and that your son could do this you again ! My heart is breaking for you . You have always been such a special man to me .
Eric : So special that you could nt wait to come in here and tell me this .
Sheila : I knew it would be upsetting --
Eric : You come into my house like this ? ! You come into my house and you say these things about my son and my wife ? ! How dare you , Sheila ! How dare you .
Sally : I could be mad at you .
Thomas : Oh , darling , how could you ever be mad at a face like this ?
Sally : Well , I promised that I was gon na turn over a new leaf , but crashing that calendar shoot was very vintage Spectra .
Thomas : Okay , that was -- that was me that did that . She s my sister . I m allowed to do things like that . You were just my trusty sidekick .
Sally : Uh , yeah , but I m not sure princess Steffy saw it that way .
Thomas : Does nt matter which was she saw it . She accepted the challenge .
Sally : Reluctantly .
Thomas : But she s a good sport about it . This is exactly what Spectra needs right now . This is exactly the pr that we need right now .
Sally : Yes , but now , we need to create a swimwear line for Monte Carlo .
Thomas : We will . We will absolutely do that . And when we are there at the summit , we are going to be sitting next to all the international movers and shakers . Do you know what that means for us ?
Sally : Yes , that I should not embarrass us or Spectra .
Thomas : Babe . You are not going to embarrass anyone . You are going to wow them . And so will that .
Sally : Wait , are we gon na unveil our new logo in Monte Carlo ?
Thomas : Well , yeah , I mean , it s work in progress . That s why nobody else outside of Spectra has seen it yet , but it gives us a chance to debut the new brand and where we re going with our designs and everything that we re doing .
Sally : You know , I will say this again . None of this would be possible without you . I am just concerned about one thing .
Thomas : Yeah ?
Sally : The way coco was looking at me . I could tell that she was not happy with me pulling another fast one on your family .
R.J. : Steffy accepted the challenge , right ?
Coco : Yeah .
R.J. : And it was all in good fun , so what s the harm ?
Coco : Meaning I should nt worry about sally , and everything will be all right ...
R.J. : Feel better ? You good ? Good . Cause we got a barbecue to get to . But first , I want you to do me a favor .
Ridge : We got caught up in something . I m not sure what it was , but what matters now ...
Quinn : What matters is Eric ! Eric is all that matters . All I think about is what my life would be like without him , without him seeing something in me that no one else did . Something that I could nt even see in myself . I was a pariah . My own son lost Faith in me . Not Eric . Eric believes in redemption . He believes in second chances . He knew that I could turn my life around even though I did all of those horrible things , and I have never -- I have never experienced that kind of Faith from someone before . I ve never experienced that kind of unconditional love ! I ca nt lose Eric . I ca nt lose him the way you lost Brooke .
Sheila : You re hurt ! You re lashing out . I understand that , but --
Eric : Not another word , Sheila ! Not another word . You come back , you re saying you want to make amends ... you want to work your way back into our family and back -- back into my life . And then you dare to come into my house , saying these hateful things !
Sheila : I ve got proof , Eric .
Eric : No , you have nothing ! It s lies , Sheila ! My son and my wife would never betray me like that . I want you to go . I never want to see you again . I never want to hear about you again . I want you out of here . I want you gone . For good !
Coco : What kind of favor ?
R.J. : It s the fourth , right ? First as boyfriend and girlfriend .
Coco : Mm - hmm .
R.J. : I was thinking maybe we could do something to mark the occasion .
Coco : Okay . What were you thinking ?
R.J. : I do nt know , maybe a photo shoot . Take some shots of you being in something patriotic . You game ?
Coco : Not on your life .
R.J. : [ Laughing ] Okay .
Coco : No ! What ?
R.J. : I tried . I tried .
Thomas : Babe , do nt worry about your sister . I will tell coco the whole challenge was my idea , okay ? We have to focus on following through with Monte Carlo . This is Spectra s first test . Not to mention our premiere as designers together . We have to impress everybody that s showing up to this thing .
Sally : Yes , and show the entire fashion world that we are a design duo to be reckoned with .
Thomas : Because we are . Or will be , once we re going toe - to - toe with Forrester .
Sally : Say it again .
Thomas : I do nt know which part I m saying again .
Sally : [ Giggles ] How we are going to kick princess Steffy s butt in Monte Carlo .
Thomas : We are absolutely going to kick her ass .
Ridge : Listen to me . Everything s gon na be fine .
Quinn : Stop ! Stop ! Sheila is dangerous . She s unpredictable . We do nt know what she s going to do . But even if she does nt have anything on us , we re never gon na be free of this secret . Brooke , Katie , ivy at some point could decide that Eric needs to know the truth and --
Ridge : They re not gon na say anything .
Quinn : Maybe ! But it is going to haunt us for the rest of our lives . We are never gon na know how , where , why , or when it s ever going to come out ! It s always gon na be between me and my husband . It s always gon na be between you and your father ! Eric deserves better than that . He deserves better from us . I told you the other day -- I want to be the woman that Eric thinks I am . I know that you want to be the son that your father thinks you are . He has to hear this . From us . Before anyone else . Yeah , it s possible he could shut both of us out of his life . But knowing your father s goodness , if there is a man on this planet who s capable of forgiving us , it s Eric . It s time we re honest with him .
Sheila : Eric , please . I m just thinking of you .
Eric : You re telling me lies about people I love , Sheila .
Sheila : No , I m not telling you lies .
Eric : I want you to get out .
Sheila : No , you ve got to believe me when I say that your wife is having --
Eric : You know nothing about my wife !
Sheila : You re right . You re right . When I first came to los Angeles , I knew nothing about Quinn . But I want to believe that she s everything that you believe she is . I started seeing things , small things . Still enough to make me concerned about you , and I m not the only one , Eric . I talked to some people . They were concerned . They let some things slip .
Eric : Oh , come on , Sheila ! Come on !
Sheila : Do nt you remember when Brooke and Ridge were supposed to be married in Australia , and Brooke called the wedding off the day before ? I believe that she found out that Ridge and Quinn were having an affair !
Eric : All right , come on ! You ve got to stop this , Sheila ! Please !
Sheila : No ! Stop ! I saw it . I saw it today with my own two eyes -- the two of them -- and they looked guilty , Eric . They do nt want to betray you , but they -- they have no choice ! They are ! They re not trying to .
Eric : My god , look at you . You have nt changed , not one bit . You re just as evil and deceitful as you ever were .
Sheila : No . No , it s Ridge and Quinn that are being deceitful . God , Eric , you are being played by the two people you love the most .
Eric : My wife and my son love me . They would never do something like this to me . Something this sick and twisted could only come from a mind as sick and twisted as yours !
R.J. : So , too revealing ?
Coco : Why do nt you try it on ? You tell me .
R.J. : Okay , yeah , no , it might be a little snug , but ...
Coco : R.J. , Stop . Stop .
R.J. : [ Laughs ] All right , all right . I still think you d look hot in it , though .
Coco : Thanks .
R.J. : Before we head over to your gram s , I actually do have a surprise .
Coco : If it s another bathing suit , I m ...
R.J. : No . No , it s not . I swear , it s cool . All right ? Something totally L.A. You trust me ?
Coco : Always . Always .
Sally : Spectra fashions in Monaco at Spencer summit ? Is this my life ? Like , when I think about my first fashion preview , in this office with Jarrett and what a disaster it was , and now here I am , with Thomas Forrester of all people , and we are sharing this office together and revamping the company . Like , it could not get any better . [ Giggles ]
Thomas : You want to bet ?
Sally : Okay , you re right . No , it is just the beginning , but we have got to make the most out of Monte Carlo .
Thomas : And we are going to ride all that pr out straight to success .
Sally : This is happening . We re on our way , and it is all thanks to you . Never in my wildest dreams could I ever have imagined anything like this . Or anyone like you .
Sheila : It s understandable . This is too painful to consider . But Ridge is the one you should be angry with , given his history with the women that you love in your life . You were married to Brooke --
Eric : Sheila , stop ! Stop !
Sheila : No , no , you need to listen to this , it s for your own good !
Eric : Look , you ca nt -- you ca nt shake my Faith in my son and my wife . You ca nt do it !
Sheila : Do you think I wanted to come here with this ? I agonized over this until I saw the two of them --
Eric : You saw nothing ! My wife is completely devoted to me .
Sheila : No , you know what ? I see what this is doing to you , and it s killing me . You deserve the truth , Eric !
Eric : The truth ? You do nt know anything about the truth . You have no relationship with the truth at all ! You have nt changed a bit ! You re still the same psychopathic liar that you always were . I want you out of my house right now . Come on ! Come on ! Out of here . Go ! Go !
Quinn : What is she doing here ?
Eric : She s leaving . She s leaving the house right now .
Ridge : Good . Dad , we need to talk .
Quinn : Sheila , get out !
Sheila : Oh , no . I would nt miss this for anything in the world .

Emma : Really ?
Olivia : Uh - huh .
Emma : I never heard you say that . You always complain about barbecues . You say it s too hot . Your feet hurt . And the food stinks .
Olivia : What s your point ? Do I say all that really ?
Emma : Yeah . Why are you so into it this year ?
Olivia : Because I m going to be with my two favorite girls in the world . How could I not be ? ( Emma giggles ) Here . Read that to Mommy . She ca nt see .
Reva : Hi . Look at you . You woke up , did nt you ? You re my big boy . Yes , you re my big boy . Oh , I know . I know . You miss your daddy , do nt you ? I know . I miss your daddy , too , but he had to go away for a little while . He did . He had to go away so he could protect you and keep you safe . And we have to be brave and strong while he s gone . Can you do that ? Huh ? Can you be brave and strong ? Can you be brave and strong ? Of course you can . Because you re my brave and strong little boy , are nt you ? You re my brave and strong little boy . Yes , you are . Yes , my brave boy .
Buzz : Oh Bessie , dammit ! I needed this for the barbecue tomorrow . What am I supposed to serve , raw vegetables ? Rick is going to love that !
Alan : You want me to alert the fire department ?
Buzz : Do you see a fire ?
Alan : No , Buzz , but it sounds like you needed some backup .
Buzz : My oven is on the fritz . Rick is depending on me for half of tomorrow s menu .
Alan : Look , all you have to have is Rick order some more of those horrible hot dogs he s so fond of .
Buzz : What about dessert ?
Alan : Well , you can have that catered .
Buzz : I am the caterer !
Alan : Well then you should have a better oven , Buzz .
Buzz : Unless you have something constructive to offer , would you please leave my kitchen ?
Alan : As a matter of fact , I do have a piece of advice for you . Stop caring so much about this barbecue . It s the same old nostalgic display every year .
Buzz : Then why do you come every year ?
Alan : I come to realize how lucky I am that I do nt have to mingle well these people the rest of the year .
Buzz : That s why James is so critical . You re feeding him this crap , are nt you ?
Alan : I m teaching James how to be a strong man .
Buzz : Really , why do nt you teach him how to be happy ? But you would nt know anything about that , would you ?
Frank : Thank you , Liz . So what happened , James ? Do nt you usually get involved with white collar crimes .
James : Would you just fingerprint me , please ?
Frank : Well , you know what ? You re actually entitled to one phone call . Would nt want your grandfather accusing me of denying you of your personal rights , you know . So who s it going to be ? You got a big shot attorney on your speed dial ?
James : How about Daisy Lemay ?
Frank : That s not going to happen .
Phillip : Guess they left it here for a reason . ( Cell phone rings ) Hello .
Frank : Phillip , Frank Cooper here . I m at the police station with your son .
Phillip : What happened ?
Frank : He was just picked up for a DUI , an open container .
Phillip : I ll be right there .
Natalia : Holy Mary , mother of God , pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death , amen .
Emma : Where s Natalia ? I want to start mixing .
Olivia : She is upstairs . Her tummy is not feeling so good , okay ? Give her a minute .
Emma : Maybe I should check on her .
Olivia : All right , go check on her . ( Knock on the door )
Emma : Natalia , are you okay ? What are you doing in there ?
Natalia : I m going to be out in just a second , Em , okay ?
Emma : Are you okay ? Mom said you re sick . Is it your stomach ?
Natalia : Yeah , I m going to be right down , just one minute .
Olivia : Hey , are you okay ? Maybe .. maybe you have food poisoning . That sandwich you ate was a little dicey .
Natalia : Yeah , I do nt think it was the sandwiches .
Emma : We ca nt start making the rice crispy treats without you .
Natalia : Okay .
Emma : Okay .
Olivia : Wait , wait , wait , wait . Are you okay ?
Natalia : Yeah . I m fine . You guys worry too much . I m fine , see .
Olivia : Really ? Because you look a little pale .
Natalia : No , I think that maybe it was just the heat today and I did nt drink enough water . I m fine . Did you get everything all set and ready ?
Emma : Yep .
Natalia : Okay .
Olivia : Wait , wait , wait . Why do nt you go lie down ? The treats can wait .
Natalia : No , I m fine . I promise . And we re going to go downstairs and we re going to make the most patriotic rice crispies anyone has ever seen .
Olivia : All right . All right . I ll guard the marshmallows because somebody tries to steal them .
Natalia : Who ?
Emma : Who ? You ?
Olivia : Snap . ( Laughter )
James : What is he doing here ?
Frank : He is your father . I ll let the two of you talk .
James : Great .
Phillip : I know you re still angry with me .
James : You have to care to be angry .
Phillip : James , we can fix this , but we have to be able to talk to each other to do that .
James : Fix it ? Fix what ? You ca nt fix something that never worked in the first place .
Phillip : You do nt believe that ?
James : Maybe I do . So are you going to ground me for two weeks ? Have me pick up more trash on the highway ?
Phillip : I did nt come here to punish you .
James : So you re not mad that I got caught drinking and driving ?
Phillip : I m not mad . You know , James , you have this all wrong .
James : You had me arrested , okay . It s kind of hard to get that wrong .
Phillip : You know , you think I did that to be cruel and to punish you , but I did nt . I did it because I care . Because the only thing in this world that matters to me is that you and your brother and sisters are okay . And you ... you do nt have to forgive me for all the things that have happened in the past . But you do , at least , have to believe that I love you .
Alan : You know , Buzz , just because you ve fought in the war and served this country , you think you have the right to give everyone advice , do nt you ?
Buzz : No , not everyone , Alan , just you .
Alan : You hang that flag like you know something , know something the rest of us do nt .
Buzz : Yeah , I know something . I know the fourth of July is tomorrow . That s what I know .
Alan : Yes , you think I ve made a lot of bad choices in my life , do nt you ? But you do nt know what it s like to be me . You do nt know what it s like to have to fulfill goals and expectations that are placed upon you . Goals that are much more significant than this stupid barbecue . You know , Buzz , there s a reason why you ended up the way you ended up here in a diner , you ca nt even meet its bills .
Buzz : There is a reason why you are you . But I do nt need to point out what you already know , do I ? ( Cell phone rings )
Alan : Excuse me .
Buzz : Hey , you .
Reva : Hi , hi , hi .
Buzz : And you , and you , and you . Is he absurdly cute or is it just me ?
Reva : I knew coming here was a good idea .
Buzz : How are you holding up ?
Reva : I m fine . I was just wondering , this my famous green bean salad .
Buzz : What , for the before barbecue ?
Reva : Yeah , I wo nt be able to be there , and I just thought maybe you could take that with you .
Buzz : Well , I could call it mine because Bessie is on the fritz .
Reva : Bessie ? Is that your new dishwasher ?
Buzz : No , that s my old oven . We re going to miss you . Ca nt you make it ?
Reva : It s ... it s a long story . Just be sure to tell everybody I said hi .
Buzz : Reva , look , you know , I m here if you need to talk about Jeffrey , about anything .
Reva : Yeah , you know what , he s going to have a meltdown . He hates this sling , so I m going to have to get him home . But have a happy fourth .
Buzz : Happy fourth .
Reva : Okay .
Emma : Will you do the three - legged race with me ?
Natalia : Me ?
Olivia : What about ... ? I got my leg all ready . Look .
Emma : No offense , but Natalia s faster . And I really want to win . But you can be on Rafe s team .
Olivia : Oh , I can , can I ? Fine ! I ll be on ... I want to be on Rafe s team . You know that ? I want ... I want us all-- you and me and Natalia and Rafe-- to be a team one day , not just at the barbecue , but every day .
Buzz : Why do you quit on the day before the barbecue ? You re quitting on me !
Josh : Who quit ? A waitress or ...
Buzz : No , not a waitress . The oven . I m responsible for half of the menu at Rick s barbecue . I ca nt bake a potato .
Josh : Have you thought about replacing it ?
Buzz : The oven ? I ca nt afford to replace the oven . I ca nt afford a burner off the oven .
Josh : Well , this looks pretty good . Is that ... is that Reva s bean casserole ?
Buzz : How did you know that ?
Josh : I do nt know .
Buzz : Yeah , she dropped it off . It s for tomorrow .
Josh : Because she s not going to be there ?
Buzz : Yeah , I guess so . I do nt know . Why would nt she want to be there ? Is she afraid people are going to ask about Jeffrey or what ?
Josh : Well , I think that might be part of it , yes .
Buzz : I mean , you think she s all right ? I m mean , she acted upbeat when she was here , but I think a little too upbeat .
Josh : I think she s going to be fine . She s got a lot of people supporting her . Could you do me a favor , though ?
Buzz : As long as it does nt involve cooking , sure .
Josh : If you see her again if she comes in , just keep an eye on her .
Buzz : Yeah , absolutely , yeah .
Josh : Thank you .
Delivery man : Delivery for Buzz Cooper ?
Buzz : That s me .
Delivery man : Sign here and you ll have a brand - new oven in your kitchen .
Buzz : Huh ? What ?
Delivery man : It s an oven , mister , not a new car .
Buzz : Who ... who ... who would ... Mother Teresa ?
Delivery man : No idea .
Josh : Yeah , son , it s me . I m standing outside of your hotel . Just wondering if you re there , if you cooled down a little bit . Because I would like to talk to you about ... your mom .
Reva : So Shayne s not here ?
Josh : Does nt look like it .
Reva : Darn . We came to wish him a happy fourth .
Josh : Because you re not going to be at the Bauer barbecue ?
Reva : How would you know that ?
Josh : Rick told me .
Reva : Oh , that s right , because you re checking up on me .
Josh : I was not checking up on you . Reva , I just ... have you heard from Jeffrey ?
Reva : Why would you ask me that question when you already know the answer ? No . And I wo nt hear from Jeffrey until he finds Edmund . He s doing his job and I m doing mine .
Josh : I think you should go to the Bauer barbecue .
Reva : Oh , now that s funny because I was just thinking that you should jump off a cliff .
Phillip : You know , I ve been exactly where you are right now .
James : Bored ? And hungry ?
Phillip : Mad at the world .
James : I m not mad at the world . Just you .
Phillip : I ve been there , too . I used to get so angry with your grandfather , you know what I used to do ?
James : Hide in his humidor , rearrange stuff on his desk ?
Phillip : On second thought , you re doing pretty well on your own . Maybe I should nt give you any ideas .
James : Maybe not .
Phillip : What did you think , if you drove drunk and got caught you d get my attention ?
James : Granddad sent me to work . I got bored . So I had a beer .
Phillip : James , I spent years of my life fighting against my father , just hating him . And at the same time wishing ... more than anything that he would just see me , notice me .
James : Yeah .
Phillip : Well , I m telling you right now , I notice you . In this moment , I notice .
James : If you did nt come here to lecture me , what do you want ?
Phillip : I talked to my lawyer . James , we re going to get you out of here . We re going to straighten this thing out in no time .
James : Why ?
Phillip : What do you mean , why ?
James : I mean , why do you want to get me out this time ?
Phillip : James , I never wanted you to be in here . I want to ... I want to take you home . I want to start working through all this .
James : All right , sounds great .
Phillip : Okay . Hey , what do you say tomorrow we go to the Bauer barbecue ?
James : Are you serious ?
Phillip : Why , you got plans ?
James : You want to take me to the barbecue tomorrow ? That s your solution to fixing all of our family s problems ?
Phillip : No , not the family . Maybe just us . Maybe that s where we need to start , eat a little apple pie , play a little tug - of - war . You and me against other father and sons , that s something we ve never done before .
James : Granddad ?
Alan : You can thank me later .
James : Yeah , for what ?
Alan : I arranged for your release .
Phillip : You paid bail ?
Alan : I did nt have to . I made the arrest go away , just like it never happened .
Emma : It s perfect .
Olivia : Should we try one ?
Emma : No , we ca nt cut it . It s supposed to stay perfect for the barbecue .
Olivia : Oh .
Natalia : Well , you did an amazing job , Emma .
Emma : I had help from you .
Olivia : What happened to me ? What did I do , nothing ? Especially when ...
Emma : Can we go get ice cream now ?
Olivia : Uh - huh , we ll all go . How s that ?
Natalia : Well , actually , I m going to hang back here , just clean up a little bit . But you guys go for ice cream .
Olivia : Okay . Would you take that out ... put your hands under it , baby . Under it , okay ? Take that out to the car and I ll be right out , okay ? Okay . So , I was just thinking and realizing as we were doing this that , you know , we re a family . Because we do things together . Not that I know much about the real kind of family thing . This is the first bona fide experience I ve had .
Natalia : Me , too .
Olivia : That s why I know when we talk to Emma , everything s going to be okay .
Natalia : Olivia .
Olivia : It will be okay . Because she loves you so much and you love her . It shows . I just know . I know this is going to be a great day tomorrow . I ca nt wait .
Natalia : I know .
Olivia : What is in there , a Ferrari ?
Buzz : No , even better , an oven . Courtesy of some anonymous benefactor . It would nt be you , would it ?
Olivia : You know I love you , but I ... this stove , oven thing is not my specialty . It s more Natalia s .
Buzz : Are you okay ?
Olivia : Yeah , great , why ?
Buzz : You look incredibly happy .
Olivia : Oh my gosh , call a doctor !
Buzz : Okay . ( Laughs )
Doris : People are beginning to see that little twinkle in your eye . You re going to have to think up some explanation .
Olivia : No . No , I m not . Because Natalia and I are going to the Bauer barbecue together .
Doris : Together ? As in together together ?
Olivia : Uh - huh .
Doris : So you already told Emma ?
Olivia : No , no , we re going to do that tonight . But then after that , she and I are going to get on with spending our lives together and being happy .
Blake : Natalia ? Hey . Are you okay ?
Natalia : Blake , you were right . I m pregnant .
Blake : Oh , you re pregnant .
Natalia : It was before Olivia and I even , you know , told each other how we felt .
Blake : This is Frank s baby ? When did you find out ?
Natalia : I just found out . I took a home pregnancy test . I really need ... you ca nt tell anyone .
Blake : I wo nt . I wo nt . Frank is my friend , but you are my friend as well , so I just want to help . I think you should get checked out . You should go to Cedars and take a real test because these home pregnancy tests sometimes are just not accurate . And who knows , maybe you re not even pregnant .
Josh : Look , I realize it s none of my business whether you go to the Bauer barbecue or do nt go to the ...
Reva : Well , that s funny . You have a funny way of showing that you do nt really care whether I go or not .
Josh : I do care . I care . And the fact is Jeffrey went to look for Edmund so you could live your life , so Colin could live his . And you re not doing that .
Reva : How do you know that ? That s right , because you sit outside my house every day .
Josh : Jeffrey would want you to go .
Reva : Do nt tell me what Jeffrey would want or would nt want , okay ? This is all your fault that we re in this mess to begin with .
Josh : What ? My fault that you re safe , that Colin s safe ?
Reva : Your fault that my husband is gone , and I do nt know when he s coming back . And that I have to lie to all of our friends about why .
Josh : Okay . I m sorry about that . I really am . I would nt want that for you .
Reva : Join the club .
Josh : Tell me you ll at least think about going to the Bauer barbecue .
Reva : No can do . Because Hawk is coming for a visit , and I promised him that we were going to sit in front of the TV and watch the baseball game and gorge ourselves on microwave popcorn and hot dogs . And make sure that this little guy has a happy holiday . Unless of course you have a problem with that .
Alan : The car s outside so we can all go home and pretend this day never happened .
Phillip : That s what you think we should do ? We should show James , once again , that actions have no consequences .
Alan : I m just trying to bring a little balance to the situation , Phillip , that s all . After all , last time you put him in jail and threw away the key .
Phillip : It was nt like that and you know it .
Alan : Well , then why do nt you describe how it was , huh ?
Phillip : Do you really want to have this same fight again ?
Alan : That would be up to you .
Phillip : I ca nt do this . Not anymore .
Alan : Would you like for my assistant to call you and set up an appointment , maybe ?
Phillip : Are you enjoying this ? Your grandson has been arrested twice in one month . You think that s fine ?
Alan : I m not the one who sent him to jail .
James : I m going to go .
Phillip : No , James . I was actually getting through to him before you showed up .
Alan : Oh , blame me . Not the father who left him for years and expects him to forgive him for that . James ?
Beth : I just heard . Where s James ?
Phillip : Not here .
Beth : What ? Where is he ?
Phillip : Well , by now I would imagine he s having a cigar in the back of Alan s limo . He showed up and got the charges erased . Got him released .
Beth : What happened ?
Phillip : Beth , I was so close to getting through to him before Alan showed up . I think he was going to go to the barbecue with me . Eat the hot dogs and play the games . I know it s just a barbecue , but I thought we should do it once before we ca nt .
Beth : There s next year and ... hey , come on . We ll have to have faith that he ll come around .
Phillip : Next year s not good enough . I got to do this now .
Beth : Do , do , do what ?
Phillip : I got to make sure what happened with me and my father does nt happen with me and my son .
James : You must love this , fathers and sons battling it out , fighting each other to the death .
Alan : No , no , no . I m not ... I did nt say that . I said that sometimes situations like that are needed . Now let s ... let s talk about tomorrow , what do you say ?
James : Let me guess , the barbecue . You want me to go with you , be on your touch football team .
Alan : Do I look like anyone who wants to be touched at a barbecue ?
James : Okay , so what , more boring investors ?
Alan : No , James , I have something else in mind . An island off the Caribbean . I have friends who are owners .
James : Of the resort ?
Alan : No , it s not a resort . They own the entire island . You and I can lay around the pool , play a little tennis , golf . Be a heck of a lot better than apple pie and horrible hot dogs .
Josh : That was Billy .
Reva : Did he say you were an ass ?
Josh : No , but I m going to say it . I am an ass .
Reva : You said it , not me .
Josh : And I think I owe you an apology .
Reva : Really ?
Josh : Yes .
Reva : I m listening .
Josh : I m sorry I butted in .
Reva : That s good . And ?
Josh : And you were right .
Reva : Uh - huh .
Josh : Spending the day with your dad and your son , watching a baseball game , sounds like an excellent fourth of July . How was that ?
Reva : It was good .
Josh : Thank you .
Reva : But you could have also added something about how you ca nt help yourself from adding your two cents . You need to get a hobby , Josh . One besides always watching me .
Josh : Okay . You want the truth ?
Reva : Uh - huh .
Josh : This is the truth . Rick sent me to look for you because he needs another able body for the three - legged race which , by the way ...
Reva : ( Laughs ) I win every year .
Josh : You always win .
Reva : Always , every year . ( Laughs ) I need to go . I have to get him home . ( Laughs )
Josh : Have a good time with your dad and your son .
Olivia : I was just picturing the look on people s faces when we show up at the barbecue together . I mean , I know that Reva is going to have a crack or two .
Doris : And Alan .
Olivia : Well , you know , Phillip understands . He supports us . So he ll have our back .
Doris : I wonder what Ashlee is going to say when she hears .
Olivia : Maybe she ll be the first one to congratulate us ?
Doris : Maybe .
Olivia : I am a little nervous thinking about it , though .
Doris : That s the point , right ?
Olivia : No , I want people to see how normal we are . How we re just like every other couple except-- unlike half of them-- we actually like being together .
Doris : You are absolutely giddy . I think I need another drink .
Olivia : You can have what I have , you know .
Doris : Yeah , sure I can . And I can also wear a size 2 .
Olivia : Natalia and I were nt looking for this . It just happened . And now I ca nt imagine my life without her . When we re together it s like things are how they re supposed to be . And I ve never felt this way with anyone else .
Reva : We re going to have so much fun tomorrow with your grandpa . Your grandpa Hawk and you and me . I do nt want to go to that old barbecue anyway . You know what ? It will be a whole lot more fun if we watch the ball game here with your grandpa . How s that ? How s that ? Although it wo nt be as much fun without your daddy here , yelling like a crazy man at the TV . You know what ? When your daddy gets home , we re going to go to a ball game . Yes , we are . And we re going to get you a hat . We re going to get you a mitt . We re going to get you the works . Yes , we are . Yes , we ll get you the works . Your daddy , he s a Sox fan , but I tell you a secret . I like the Cubs .
Alan : The jet is all set . We ll be leaving tomorrow morning . Believe me , James , you re going to be happy that you chose this trip to the Caribbean instead of that pathetic little barbecue . ( Cell phone rings )
James : Hi , Mom .
Beth : James , I m glad you picked up . We need to talk about what happened today .
James : You did nt need to worry , Mom .
Beth : Well , I did . And I am . And not just me , but your father , too .
James : We ll talk when I get back , okay ?
Beth : Back ? Back from where ?
James : I m going on a trip with Granddad .
Beth : Did you know about a trip ? He says he s going on a trip with Alan .
Phillip : Why does my father want everything that I have ?
Beth : Okay , okay , well , it s just a business trip . It s not the worst thing in the world . At least we know he wo nt be getting into trouble .
Phillip : I need to spend time with James .
Beth : You ll spend time with him as soon as he gets back .
Phillip : Not if Alan sucks him in , I wo nt .
Beth : Let s look at the bright side . Considering the way James has been acting , we would be lucky if he found a focus . So maybe he does work for Alan for the summer and then he goes back to school in the fall .
Phillip : Summer may be all I have .
Beth : Well , just because he s going to college does nt mean he s not going to be around . You ll see him . You ll work this out . You have plenty of time .
Frank : So there s no card ?
Buzz : No .
Frank : You sure this for you ?
Buzz : Frank , who else would it be for ?
Frank : I do nt know , Pop . It looks like you have a guardian angel .
Buzz : But it s a recession . Who has the money for something like this ?
Frank : I do nt know . But you know what ? I ll call the manufacturer and see if I can get a name off the invoice .
Buzz : Okay . Hey , Frank , get me a beer while you re at it .
Frank : All right .
Buzz : I feel like celebrating .
Blake : Here .
Natalia : Thank you . Not just for the water . Thank you for being here with me .
Blake : You re going to be fine . You know that , right ?
Doctor : Miss Rivera .
Blake : Oh , hi .
Doctor : The blood test confirmed that you are pregnant .
Blake : How far along is she , doctor ?
Doctor : Well , we ll schedule a sonogram to determine that , but I d say at least several months . Congratulations Miss Rivera . If you have any questions , please let me know .
Blake : Here .
Natalia : It s true . How did I not know this ?
Blake : Sometimes we just do nt see it .
Natalia : It should have been pretty obvious , I mean the symptoms , the nausea and dizziness . I think maybe I did know and maybe I just did nt want it to be true .
Blake : I m going to be right outside , okay ?
Natalia : Olivia ?
Olivia : Hi , what s up ?
Natalia : Some errands .
Olivia : That s okay . Listen , Emma s going to be home from a friend s house in , like , a couple of hours . I thought that we would order some dinner and have a regular , you know , family night , and then we would sit down and talk to her together .
Natalia : Oh , that sounds great . I just ... I ca nt do that tonight .
Olivia : Why ?
Natalia : Something came up .
Olivia : Is everything okay ?
Natalia : Yeah , of course . No , yeah , I just ... I have to take care of it .
Olivia : Okay . We ll just ... we ll tell her tomorrow before the barbecue . I m really looking forward to walking in there together , you know , like a real family . And I know I m being a big cheese ball , but I m just so happy for us .
Natalia : Me too .
Olivia : Okay . Call me later . I love you .
Natalia : I love you , too .
Coming up , on Guiding Light ...
Lizzie : No one is going to beat us at that three - legged race , no one .
Rick : No , no , no . Now that Phil s back in town , you re going down .
Lillian : Do nt you want someone to know ? Someone like Beth .
Natalia : I really do nt want her missing out on anything just because of me .
Olivia : I really want to talk to her before we show up together .
Blake : Everybody eventually comes back to Springfield because it s such a magical place . I m so happy you re here .

Daniel : Well , I m going to the park because , if his family and friends have nt heard from him , maybe the drug dealer has .
Maggie : [ Groans ]
Brady : [ Sniffs ]
Man : Hey , man . You got the time ? Yeah , we ll go ahead and take that watch and your wallet . And the coke .
EJ : Are you going to marry me ?
Sami : And you think bullying me is gon na work ?
EJ : I think it s about the only thing I have nt tried . So why not ? I m gon na give it a shot . I ve tried being reasonable , and I ve tried being patient .
Sami : Why are you doing this now ? We had such a nice night last night .
EJ : You know , that s what I thought .
Sami : We did . I felt like for the first time in a long time we were actually making progress .
EJ : And yet you could nt bring yourself to kiss your fiancé . On New Year s Eve . And now this morning look at you . Sneaking out of the house .
Sami : I am not sneaking--
EJ : What sort of game do you think that you re playing , Samantha ?
Abigail : Gabi .
Gabi : I m so clumsy . I m sorry .
Abigail : It s okay . I mean , I was surprised to hear from Nick too , but -- but it s really him . See ?
Gabi : Yeah , that s -- that s his number , mm - hmm .
Abigail : Yeah , that s his number . He took his phone with him to New York .
Gabi : Yeah--
Abigail : Gabi--
Gabi : No , I just -- I thought-- well , no one s heard from him , so ...
Abigail : Yeah , and not much . I mean , except for Hope when he first got there .
Gabi : What ?
Abigail : Yeah . Yeah , she said that he sent em a text saying that he got to the city okay but that he was gon na go off the grid for a little bit until he got settled . I guess he s resurfaced .
Gabi : Mm - hmm , yeah , I guess . I m gon na take Arianna home for a nap . So ...
Abigail : Gabi , Ari s already sleeping . What s going on ? What is it about Nick that s upsetting you so much ?
Rafe : [ Sighs ] Well ...
Jordan : I m not Rafe s physical therapist anymore .
Kate : Oh . Are you his masseuse now ?
Rafe : Hey , Kate .
Kate : Hi . I m so sorry for interrupting .
Rafe : No , no , no , it s okay . Come on in .
Kate : Well ...
Rafe : Well , I guess I should put some clothes on .
Jordan : Yeah , I need to go .
Rafe : No , no , no , you stay . It s just gon na take me a minute . You can keep Kate company .
Kate : Oh , wow , look at you .
Rafe : Uh - huh .
Kate : You re doing great .
Rafe : Yup .
Jordan : Yes , he is .
Gabi : It s just strange to hear from Nick again , that s all .
Abigail : Strange ? Gabi , you just dropped a glass all over my shoes , and you turned white as a sheet .
Gabi : I just --I drop things all the time . You can ask Mrs. Brady . She d take half my check sometimes for things I d break--
Abigail : Gabi , stop , this is not about that . This is about hearing about Nick . Now , look , I m sorry if I was nt being sensitive--
Gabi : It s no big deal .
Abigail : Clearly it was a big deal , and it still is , Gabi . Did something happen between you and Nick ?
Sami : I m not playing a game with you , EJ . I m trying to figure out how-- what it will take for me to trust you again .
EJ : Right . But in the meantime you re quite happy for me to clean up your semi - annual murder , are nt you ? And to get down on my hands and knees and give my father everything , everything I own so that you do nt have to spend the rest of your life in prison .
Sami : Please , EJ , I know everything that you have done for me .
EJ : I do nt think you have any idea of all the things I ve done for you .
Sami : What ? What were you expecting ? A prize ? You feel like you should have won , is that it ? Is that why you re doing this ? You keep score of all--
EJ : No , I do these things cause I love you , Samantha . I love you so much I ca nt bloody see straight . I ve done everything that I can to prove that to you . I would give you anything you ask .
Sami : Except the truth . Right ? Because that s really all I want from you . You want to get married ? Then tell me the truth . You tell me what you knew about Kristen and Eric , and I will marry you today .
Eric : Well , I ve kind of been texting with Brady since New Year s , and have you spoken with him ?
Nicole : Just texts .
Eric : It s just really hard for me to tell , you know . I do nt know . Maybe it s just because he s having trouble , especially with me .
Nicole : Eric , I just -- I think he s embarrassed . He s probably struggling . I mean , he relapsed . He was wired , and he got caught in the worst way . I think it s gon na be a while before he feels okay with any of us .
Eric : Yeah , especially with me .
Nicole : But he went to a meeting with you on New Year s .
Eric : We did nt really give him much of a choice .
Nicole : I know you ca nt divulge anything , but how did he sound ? He did speak , right ?
Eric : I do nt know . It was a closed meeting . He told me to wait outside .
Nicole : Did you get a sense of him or how he was afterward ?
Eric : Well , when I went back , he was nt there , and I got a text that he had gone home . He did nt want to be out on a night like that , especially with all the parties going on .
Nicole : All right , that makes sense .
Eric : Oh , man , I really -- I got to get to the church , but--
Nicole : Oh .
Eric : It s nothing new . I mean , it s just my normal meeting with Father Matt .
Nicole : Okay .
Eric : You know what ? In our photos just-- one of my favorites , if they re kind of looking for a serious shot , I d kind of go with ... that one . I do nt know , but then there s this one right here . You just -- you see the look in your eyes , the way it kind of just pulls you in right there ?
Nicole : Yeah . I ll take your word on it . Thanks .
Eric : Yeah , it s kind of my job these days .
Nicole : Hey , Eric , Eric , Eric . The truth , it s gon na come out . Daniel s gon na clear your name , and you ll be back at St. Luke s soon . I know it .
Eric : Yeah , I really hope so .
Nicole : Oh . Eric ! Eric , your phone . Oh , it s Maggie .
Nicole : It s Maggie . Hi , Maggie , what s going on ?
Maggie : Nicole , have you seen Brady in the last 24 hours ?
Brady : Hey , hey , hey . [ Shouts ]
Kate : Well , sorry for barging in like that . You really should nt keep the door ajar , though , when you have plans .
Jordan : Good tip . Thanks .
Kate : Look , I owe you an apology .
Jordan : No , it s okay . You re right . We should have closed the door .
Kate : Not about that . I was out of line earlier . The holidays are hard for me .
Jordan : For a lot of us .
Kate : I only want what s best for Rafe . And obviously you have worked miracles with your physical therapy . And I know he s grateful . And I totally understand that .
Gabi : I do nt know how to live with this secret .
Kate : Think of it this way . If you do nt , that means living without your beautiful daughter . If you do nt , that means your daughter lives without a mother .
Gabi : Nothing happened with Nick .
Abigail : Gabi , I know his history , okay ? If he in some way has--
Gabi : It s nothing , okay ? Look , it was nice meeting up and having lunch , but I ll text you . We ll do it again sometime , so-- who are you calling ?
Abigail : Hope Brady .
Gabi : Why ?
Abigail : We all love Nick , okay ? He s our family . We love him . But , Gabi , if he is hurting you , then--
Gabi : Do nt . Do nt call Hope .
EJ : Fine . Cause you know me so well . Kristen and I used the wine cellar downstairs . It makes a fairly decent laboratory . That s where we mixed up the drugs . The drugs were my idea . So I slipped the drugs into his drink . And then I manned the camera . You know how I like to watch . I m really sorry about the lighting , by the way , you know . But what the hell ? It achieved its job . It ruined your brother s life and broke your heart in the process , so ...
Sami : Is this funny to you ? Is this funny ?
EJ : No , it s not , Samantha . It s not funny at all . I can see your face , and you actually wanted to believe that .
Sami : Well , it s not like you re not capable , EJ .
EJ : You actually want to believe that I would be that much of a monster , that much of an idiot . That , against all sense and reason--
Sami : I did nt say that .
EJ : Then what is it exactly that you are saying , Samantha ? Cause I tell you the truth , which is that one hour before the wedding my sister came and dropped in my lap the truth , which is that she slept with Eric -- now I tell you that , and you ca nt accept it . You are convinced that I am lying .
Sami : That s right . Because I can feel it . Because I have this feeling in my gut that will not go away . And until it does I am not going to set a date . Do you know how many times I have been almost married ? I m not doing that again , and I m definitely not doing it with you . I just ca nt , EJ . I cant -- I ca nt stand there at the altar with you ... so completely , so desperately in love with you , and so completely yours , only to have some fool come in at the last second with a stupid secret .
EJ : But I would never let that happen to you , Samantha . Ever .
Sami : Ever again , you mean .
EJ : If you do nt believe--
Sami : I do nt know what to believe , EJ . I just do nt .
EJ : Samantha , believe in me , okay ? Come here . Believe in me . I m the person that you keep telling me you love .
Sami : I want to . I want to , and I--
EJ : Just--
Sami : EJ , it s the office . Cause I m late . We re just talking in circles . That s all this is . We re just -- we re just talking in circles , and I dont -- I do nt know why you re pushing this right now . So I can go to Chicago , I can have the meeting , and I will come home , and we will finish this conversation . Or I can pack the rest of my things and move out .
Man : Two grams ? That s all you got ?
Daniel : Hey ! Hey , get off him . I said get off . Get ! Hey . Brady , Brady . You okay ? Hey , look at me . Brady ? Brady ?
Maggie : I still have to talk to the staff , and Victor s in a meeting for another hour .
Nicole : Well , where s Daniel now ?
Maggie : He went to the park to find Brady s dealer .
Nicole : On my way .
Matt : Any developments on your case ?
Eric : No news . We re waiting to get the test results back . The police , they have nt found Kristen DiMera . They re still having , you know , trouble .
Matt : What s worrying you , Son ? Now come on . You know everything you say here is confidential .
Eric : I know . It s -- it s not that I ca nt say it to you . It s that I ca nt say it .
Matt : To yourself ?
Eric : I have to . I have to admit to the fact that I have feelings for Nicole that are-- I have feelings for Nicole that go far beyond friendship .
Jordan : So that s what you think is going on ? That Rafe is grateful to me ?
Kate : You know , I had a serious illness before , and , I mean , I saw it dozens of times . We all get crushes on our caregivers . But I guess it makes sense that you could possibly fall in love with a person who s saving you . But then again it s the role . I mean , it s not the person . Of course you know that . I mean , well , that was the reason that you kept your distance before , right ?
Jordan : Wait , did nt you think it was my master plan to use my role to seduce Rafe ?
Kate : Well , obviously , I was wrong . Look , I know that I created this tension between the two of us , and I m just saying that it s a new year , and I d really like to start over again .
Rafe : Well , I like the sound of that .
Daniel : I found him . I ll call you back soon . I just wanted to let you know that I have him .
Maggie : Oh , thank God .
Daniel : Bye . Let me check your ribs . I think you got kicked . You remember that part ?
Brady : Uh - huh .
Daniel : Yeah , all right . Right there ?
Brady : [ Grunts ]
Daniel : Hang in there .
Brady : I m all right .
Nicole : Oh , my God , Brady . Is he okay ? Did you call 911 ?
Daniel : No , no , no , he just got roughed up a bit , but I think all of his injuries are superficial . We do nt need to bring him to the hospital . He ll be fine .
Nicole : We should get him home .
Daniel : Yeah . Okay , come on . Can you stand up ? Put your arm around my neck . Put your arm around me . Here we go . Ready ?
Brady : [ Grunts ] I m all right .
Daniel : All right . Come on , buddy .
Nicole : Oh , my God .
Eric : Father , the dream that I told you about ... well , I see it now as -- it was really about ... loving Nicole . And not just a love for a friend .
Matt : Romantic feelings ?
Eric : You know , I tried to explain it in every way I could , but obviously ... well , because I m a priest .
Matt : Priests are humans too . You ll have those feelings . The difference is , what do you do about them ?
Eric : Nothing . I have nt . I would nt .
Matt : Never thought , Eric , that these feelings come up in order to give you some comfort ? To make you realize that , if you were nt in the priesthood , you could have another life ? Maybe not with Nicole , but with somebody else you could embrace ? Of course , that would assume ...
Eric : Assume -- I m sorry , assume what ?
Matt : Assume that you still wanted to be a priest . Do you ?
Sami : So yes or no ? Should I go get my things , get the kids ready to leave ?
EJ : The kids go nowhere . Their home is with me . And your home is with me . Are you really gon na threaten to move out over a business trip , Samantha ?
Sami : It is not about the stupid business trip , EJ . I will not be your hostage .
EJ : What ?
Sami : How d you expect me to react ? You re grounding the plane , close all the doors , lock them . What d you think ? I m just gon na fall to my knees ? Oh , EJ , my lord and master , yes , I will trust you , I will believe you , even if you lie straight to my face .
EJ : I just asked you a question .
Sami : Do you really want the answer that you would get from me right now ?
Sami : It wo nt stop calling . Rosemary and Marketing are standing on the tarmac .
EJ : Go . Go on . Go . I ll have the pilot release the plane .
Sami : I will be back as soon as I can . Thank you for understanding .
EJ : [ Scoffs ] I do nt understand a damn thing , Samantha . Not a thing .
Abigail : Gabi , if you are this scared , then we definitely need to call Hope .
Gabi : I m not scared , okay ?
Abigail : Damn it , it went to voice mail aga -- oh , you know what ? She s on Smith Island tonight with Ciara , and they get really lousy service out there .
Gabi : Right , well , it s for the best , really . I m sorry that I upset you . I had a stupid moment , and I just -- I do nt want to think about Nick , I do nt want to be reminded of him , so please just let it go .
Abigail : Yeah , I ll think about it .
Gabi : Okay , I will see you later .
Abigail : Take care .
Eric : Yes , I - I want to be a priest . That s my calling .
Matt : I ve seen that . So your feelings for Nicole-- she s been helping you clear your name , has nt she ? You think maybe working together your mutual--
Eric : No , it s not mutual . She s moved on . She s with somebody else now . But even if she were nt , I do nt think she could care about me the same , not after what I did .
Matt : With Kristen ?
Eric : Father , I told you , I accused Nicole of being the woman who attacked me . It hurt her very deeply , and she struggles to be friends with me even now . I guess what I m trying to say , the good news is , is that my feelings are just my feelings , and I can handle that .
Matt : When will you get the results from the medical tests ?
Eric : Soon .
Matt : Oh , I m praying that they will reveal the truth .
Eric : So am I. I need to get back , Father . The church is where I belong now more than ever .
Maggie : What happened to his face ?
Daniel : Just a little scuffle , and he s okay .
Maggie : Brady , Brady . Look at me . You lied to all of us . But that s what addicts do , is nt it ? We lie to family and friends , and worst of all we lie to ourselves . You ready to tell us ?
Brady : I thought I was okay . When I left you ... I played you , okay ? I worked-- I worked them because I wanted to be alone , cause I was embarrassed , and I was mad , and I wanted a buzz , Maggie , okay , so I played my friends . That s what I did .
Maggie : Are you just a little bit proud of that ?
Brady : No .
Maggie : Good . How badly was he beaten ?
Daniel : Just a little banged up , but I ll keep an eye on him . He does nt have to go to the hospital .
Maggie : Brady , we should talk about a program .
Brady : I dont -- Maggie , I dont -- I do nt need that . I have my friends , and I m okay .
Maggie : Yeah , who you just admitted you played .
Brady : Well , I ca nt play you , right ? All I need is you , really .
Maggie : Brady , you need to get to a meeting just as soon as possible .
Brady : I do nt know -- I do nt even have my -- where the hell is my-- [ Coughs ] The Grant Street -- the regular meeting at Grant Street starts in ten minutes .
Maggie : I can get you there in 15 .
Brady : All right .
Maggie : Brady , are you ready to face your regulars ?
Brady : No , no , I m not , which is why I should probably face them , right ?
Maggie : Yes , that s right . And I ll be there with you .
Brady : Okay .
Maggie : You can do this , Brady . You can do it .
Brady : I can -- I know . Uh ... you guys ... probably saved my life today , so thank you .
Maggie : Thanks .
Kate : So , oh , I almost forgot the whole reason I came . Arianna s christening . The kids are going to do it this month , so I brought you the christening gown that you bought . Remember ? It was at my place . Good thing it was huge for a newborn because--
Rafe : Thank you .
Kate : There you go . But , you know , it all works out , because now I think it will still fit her . You know how guys are about babies and sizes and everything . Oh , you can--
Rafe : I got it . See ?
Kate : Thank you .
Rafe : Yeah , no -- oh , thanks . Thank you .
Jordan : It s beautiful .
Rafe : I ca nt believe they waited .
Kate : Well , of course . They would nt have the christening without you .
Rafe : Yeah . I m gon na stand up for my niece .
Kate : And thanks to Jordan , you ll be able to do that .
Gabi : Hi , I need to speak with Sami . Tell her it s an emergency , please .
Harold : Miss Brady is away on business .
EJ : Actually , I ll take this , Harold , thank you very much . Private matter .
Gabi : Nick is alive .
EJ : Shh , you do not say that in front of any of my staff or anybody else for that matter .
Gabi : I m sorry , I m sorry , but it s true , okay ? I saw--
EJ : Stop . Stop .
Gabi : No , I freaked out , okay ? I was thinking about it . I realized on the way over here that he s alive , okay--
EJ : Gabriella , stop , breathe . Please . Breathe .
Gabi : Okay .
EJ : Thank you . Now why is it that you think that Nick is alive ?
Gabi : He texted Abigail . I saw it . I mean , why is nt he going to the police ? He has something else--
EJ : A text message ? That s the only reason that you think he s still alive ?
Gabi : EJ , I saw it . It was definitely from Nick s phone .
EJ : Yeah , but Kate has Nick s phone .
Gabi : What is she doing with Nick s phone ?
EJ : She s using it . She s texting the Hortons to keep up the illusion that Nick s still alive .
Gabi : Wait , okay , so he s still dead ?
EJ : Yes .
Gabi : Okay , yeah , I get-- yeah , Kate is doing something really smart , okay .
EJ : Can I tell you what would be really smart ?
Gabi : What ?
EJ : It would be really smart if you girls communicated with one another to let each other know what was going on , especially considering what is at stake here .
Gabi : Oh , my God .
EJ : What ?
Gabi : Abigail .
Abigail : And that ferry gets into Smith Island when ? Okay , great , perfect . I m on my way . The last name is Deveraux .
Rafe : All right , Kate .
Kate : See you later .
Rafe : Okay .
Kate : [ Scoffs ]
Rafe : Sorry about that .
Jordan : Well , Kate said that she s okay with whatever it is that we are .
Rafe : Yeah . What is it that we are again ? Oh , yeah . Oh , yeah . That s right .
Jordan : Actually , I am glad that Kate came over when she did .
Rafe : Oh .
Nicole : I just hate seeing Brady like that . He s crawled out of that dark hole so many times .
Daniel : Well , he will do it again .
Nicole : I hope so . Cause every time it just feels like he ll just slip away or go under , but this last time , I mean , what he said when we left--
Daniel : Yeah ?
Nicole : It just made me realize that he could have died , Daniel . You could have found his body in the park , instead--
Daniel : Okay , shh , shh , shh . But we did nt . We found him , and now he s finding himself .
Nicole : We ca nt leave him alone .
Daniel : Well , I know you never will . You know , he s pretty damn lucky to have you in his corner . Like everyone else you care about .
Gabi : You know , I tried to talk her out of it , but Abigail insisted on talking to Hope .
EJ : About Nick .
Gabi : Yeah , and me and what went on .
EJ : That s not very helpful , Gabriella .
Gabi : No . You know , if Hope tries to contact Nick and realizes that he s not in New York , she s gon na come to me , she s gon na ask me questions , and I do nt know what I m gon na say .
EJ : No , it s fine . That s not gon na happen . I do nt think there s any doubt that you can stand up to that level of scrutiny . Here , telephone , please . Thank you .
Gabi : What are you doing ?
EJ : Sending a text message to Abigail . Please talk to me before you go to Hope . It s crucial . XO ? XO . Okay , that should buy us a little bit of time .
Gabi : Thank God , because Abigail s really smart . It s like she knows what you re thinking before you say anything .
EJ : On my way to Smith Island . Hope needs to know . Bloody hell .
Gabi : This is horrible . Hope s gon na find out , then she s gon na come ask me questions . I cant--
EJ : Okay , Gabriella , stop , stop . Here , take your telephone . Take your baby . Go home . If anybody rings and it s not me , do nt pick it up . You understand ?
Gabi : Okay , thank you .
EJ : It s me . Fuel the boat , bring it to the dock . Now .
Jordan : This -- this was going too fast for me .
Rafe : Uh - huh . Well , not me , and I m the one who can barely walk , so ...
Jordan : Yeah , I know . You do nt do slow very well . But you re just gon na have to work on it .
Rafe : Hmm . Okay , then . So now what ?
Jordan : You ever been to Sloane s ?
Rafe : The sports bar ?
Jordan : Yeah . They show the playoffs . We could grab a beer , watch the game .
Rafe : You asking me out ?
Jordan : It s just a game and a beer .
Rafe : I ll take it .
Jordan : Call me ?
Rafe : Maybe .
Kate : No , I wo nt be meeting with you . Bring our prospective employee into the office as soon as they get in from Birmingham . My son Lucas will do the interview . Call me as soon as you re there . You re in for quite a surprise , Miss Ridgeway .
Maggie : Brady , we need to tell Victor .
Brady : Okay .
Maggie : I m sure he s done with his work by now . And if it s all right , I ll go get him .
Brady : Yeah . Sure . I mean , today should be the day I make amends . Why not do it in one big fell swoop , right ?
Maggie : Yeah . Well , now , listen , if you re not ready , this is a lot--
Brady : No , no , I want-- Maggie , I want to do it . I want to do it . I want to do it cause I do nt want to take my eye off the ball , you know .
Maggie : All right . I ll be right back .
Brady : All right . [ Coughs ]
Nicole : Brady owes you , big - time .
Daniel : No , no , he would have done the same for me .
Nicole : Mm .
Daniel : Mm .
Nicole : Some days , but you re this guy all the time . You save lives , right ? That s your thing .
Daniel : Oh , really ? Is that , like , my thing ? Is that what I do ?
Nicole : Yeah . You know , I m lucky to have you in my life . Cause whenever you re around , I feel totally safe , totally appreciated . It s like everything s gon na be fine .
Abigail : Hope ?
EJ : Do nt do that . Hello , Abigail .

Clyde : So my money s not good enough all of a sudden ?
Rafe : Well , thing is Weston , I m all out of disinfectant , so why do nt you just do us both a favor and get the hell out of here ?
Clyde : You know , it almost sounds like you re angling for a fight there . Do nt imagine your employer would cotton to that .
Rafe : You know what , Weston ? I ve been cordial to you out of respect for Victor , but I do nt need this dead - end job anymore . See , I m planning on going back to what I do best . Being a cop .
Clyde : Well , if that s what you do best , then we re all in trouble .

JJ : Because I gave it up . But when I saw you with him , I could nt say no . I was nt gon na tell you ever . I was just gon na take care of it and get the guy .
Paige : For me ?
JJ : You think that you know him and you think that you can handle it and that you can turn him into this upstanding citizen and he ll leave the life behind , but that s not going to happen .
Paige : How do you know ?
JJ : Because he is seriously bad .
Paige : Oh , as bad as you ?
JJ : Maybe you re just with him because you know that it drives me insane .
Paige : Oh , stop .
JJ : Or maybe you actually do like him and you think that you can save him . But the DEA does nt go after low - level dealers , Paige . He could nt quit the life even if he wanted to . The only way he leaves is in handcuffs or a coffin .
Paige : JJ ...
JJ : And if you re with him , I do nt even want to think about that . He is going to hurt you so much worse than I ever did .
Paige : Like that s even possible . You know what , if you re so worried that he s going to hurt me , maybe you should nt have told him that I outed him to your mom .
JJ : I just wanted him to leave you the hell alone .
Paige : I want you to leave me alone , okay ? You have no right butting into my life this way .
JJ : I m not butting into your life , but when I see you with that guy , I know what I have to do . And that s what happens when you love someone . And I do love you Paige . I never , ever stopped .
Marlena : Have nt we been through this before ? Do you remember how this turned out ?
John : I was gon na tell you , doc . It s just that we had been working so hard to get back on track , I did nt want to add another complication right now .
Marlena : Then why do it ? Why go back to the ISA ?
John : Because I have to .
Marlena : See , I do nt know what that means .
John : Everything I know about who I am starts from the day that I met you . First half of my life might be a blank slate , but I know that I am Brady and bill s father and I know that I am the spy who loves you . The ISA is more than a job , doc . It is part of my identity . It s my calling , like you were called to be a doctor .
Marlena : No , wait a minute .
John : I know you think it s dangerous , but what about your job ?
Marlena : No . You chase bad guys around the globe . I see patients in my office .
John : The name Stella Lombard ring a bell ?
Marlena : [ Exhales ] Being kidnapped by one sociopath does not a job risk make .
John : Come on , doc . I gave it the good college try . I sat behind a desk . I ran basic black . That was nt me . I need to feel like I m making a difference . Like I m part of the good guys .
Marlena : You are . You always have been . And you are with the Salem pd .
John : Yeah , I know , and I though that would be enough , but you know what ? There s something missing . I love you . So a part of me is saying , make her happy . Walk away . Just put her first and do what she wants .
Marlena : In a relationship , both people have to get what they want .
John : Yes , and I want this to work for us , doc . I want this with all my heart .
Marlena : I do , too .
John : But if I pass on this opportunity ... what if this feeling does nt go away ? What if , over time , I start to resent you for what I passed up ? I not saying it will . I just do nt know if I d be able to stop it .
John : It s the station , sorry .
John : John Black . On my way .
Marlena : What is it ?
John : Hope called in a robbery . Aiden Jennings was attacked .
Marlena : Let s go .
Hope : Take pictures and get an inventory of everything that s missing . But first , let s get a detailed statement from Mr. Jennings . Aiden , what , why are nt you sitting down ?
Aiden : It looks a lot worse than it is , I m fine , hope . I m fine .
Hope : Tell officer lee what happened , okay , please ? From the beginning .
Aiden : There was knock on the door . I thought it was you . Opened the door . He punched me in the face and forced his way in .
Officer lee : You never saw the assailant s face ?
Aiden : No .
Hope : What happened next ?
Aiden : Uh ... he started looking for cash , started trashing the room . I ... fought him off the best I could , but you know , I ... tried ripping off the mask . I could nt do it , and he took off . Managed to get a couple things .
Hope : And how tall was he ?
Aiden : Average height . Average build . I ... just average , you know ? It happened so fast .
Officer lee : Any physical features that stand out ?
Aiden : No . Wish I could give you more , but , uh ... that s all I got .
Clyde : Tell me what s funny .
Rafe : No , no , no , you know , I m gon na tell Victor that if he ever needs someone to do stand - up , that he should give you a call .
Clyde : Hmm .
Rafe : Yeah . So , why would I be jealous of you ?
Clyde : Well , let s see . I call my own shots .
Rafe : Mm - hmm .
Clyde : You pour shots . You go from FBI agent to police detective to shift manager . Plunging out the toilets whenever they overflow . And by the way , I do understand that the arrest rate has gone way up since you left the force .
Rafe : You know , incidentally , so has the crime rate .
Clyde : So , I should be shaking in my boots since you maybe gon na become a detective again , huh ? Well , let me tell you , I m a major donor to a hospital charity . My businesses are booming . I got a great relationship with my son , who s about to marry this beautiful woman , and you , what is it you got going for you again ?
Rafe : Well , at least I can go home and sleep at night knowing that I m a decent person and I put in a hard day s work .
Clyde : Well , I sleep like a bay , Rafe . Right next to your ex , which I m sure you do nt need reminding . You see , that s the thing . You had something solid and you lost it , and you just ca nt get it back again . I mean , that would bother any real man . But that s the difference between you and me , you see ? I m exactly where I want to be .
Paige : You love me ? After everything you ... [ Sniffs ] Why are you telling me this ? Do you really think I could ever forget what you did to me ?
JJ : No . Of course not . But you wanted me to explain it , and I m just trying to make you understand , not what I m trying to do , but what you are getting yourself into . If you could only see the stuff that the DEA has showed me about Kyle .
Paige : But of course , you ca nt tell me .
JJ : You can read about it in the paper . An old buyer of his ended up in ICU cause he nearly got beat to death after he tried to stiff Kyle . You saw how much cash he had in that safe . Do you know what he also keeps in one of his desk drawers ? His gun . I m not saying that he would ever try to hurt you , but what if you re with him sometime when he decides that he needs to use it ? And what if you get caught in a crossfire ?
Paige : JJ , it s ...
JJ : Damn it , Paige , it is killing me to see you with this guy . Just promise me , will you please promise me , that you will stay away from him .
Paige : Why ? So that you can have me back ?
Rafe : You re like the U.S. Congress , Weston . All talk , no action .
Clyde : Oh , I get plenty of action , Rafe . How about you ?
Rafe : Uh - huh . Yeah , you made a sizable donation to a hospital , you walk round this place like you re some damn hero . You know , here in Salem , people know the real deal . You ai nt it .
Clyde : It s not you either .
Rafe : Yeah .
Clyde : You just keep telling yourself how happy you are with you life . You can tell yourself that enough , you might even start to believe it .
Hope : Check in with Chen downstairs , okay ? Keep me informed .
Marlena : Hope !
Hope : Oh , Marlena , what are you doing here ?
John : Well , watch commander called me . What about you two ?
Hope : Trying to have a romantic evening .
Marlena : What happened ?
Hope : I left to bring Caroline her reading glasses--
John : Someone call the EMT ?
Hope : No , Aiden insisted he s okay . I d feel a lot better if you looked at him , though .
Marlena : I will , of course I will .
Aiden : It s not necessary .
Marlena : Aiden , oh , honey , my gosh . Please .
Aiden : Sure .
Marlena : Follow my finger .
Aiden : All right .
Marlena : Were you unconscious at any point ?
Aiden : No , no , no . I can move all my limbs and I m not seeing double - vision and it s 2015 , I believe , so does that cover everything , or ... ?
Marlena : I think it does .
Aiden : [ Chuckles ]
Marlena : Okay .
John : Is he okay ?
Marlena : Well , uh , I think so , his wounds seem very superficial . I do nt think that he has a concussion , um ... wow , it just must have been so upsetting . I want to get a complete neuro - exam on him just to be sure .
Hope : Yeah , of course .
Marlena : And I am shocked a thing like this could happen here .
John : So am I. The other manager s gon na get us security camera footage . We ve got officers going door to door . Somebody s got ta see something . What I want to do is bring forensics in right away .
Aiden : Will you people just stop and get out ? ( Music plays )
Paige : As if I d ever take you back .
JJ : I did nt say that .
Paige : You did nt have to . You keep trying to make this about Kyle , but it s obviously about us .
JJ : No , it s not about us .
Paige : You just said the whole reason you re doing this is because of me . Because you still love me . And because you think I ca nt take care of myself .
JJ : That s not it .
Paige : Yes , it is . But guess what ? I do nt need you . I do nt need my mother . I learned the hardest way possible that the only person that I can count on is me . I am finally running my own life and I m getting better at it every day , and do you know how that feels ? It feels great . And now all I need is for you to just get out of my way .
JJ : Paige , I know I broke your heart . It does nt mean you can turn off your feelings . Earlier , when I broke into Kyle s safe , you helped me get out of there . You did nt have to do that . But you did . Why ? It s because you cared . Cause you still have feelings for me , no matter what you say .
Rafe : Yeah . Just keep giving me ammunition to go after you .
Clyde : You know , actually , I ca nt wait till you become a detective again . New manager comes in here , I might finally get a drink .
Rafe : Well , not if you re in jail .
Clyde : Now you said I was all talk . I got a lot of friends in this town , Rafe , including your boss .
Rafe : Yeah , Victor s not your friend .
Clyde : No ?
Rafe : No .
Clyde : Then why does he comp my drinks ? Could nt be cause he s scared of little old me , could it ? See , that s the thing . Even the great Victor Kiriakis has got nothing on me . So if you and your friend hope wanna go get me , have it man . Waste your time . You got plenty of it . But there s no evidence out there , so you re not gon na find it .
Aiden : [ Sighs ] I m sorry about that . It s just my head is pounding .
Hope : No , I bet it is . You need to rest . He needs some rest .
John : This is a crime scene now .
Hope : We both know forensics is nt gon na find anything more in this room . Our best bets probably an eyewitness , if there is one .
John : Yeah , I agree with that , but still--
Aiden : The truth is , I m just embarrassed about the whole thing and I ...
Marlena : Why ? You were a victim .
Aiden : I do nt like to be a victim .
John : Nobody does .
Aiden : I do nt want look like I m getting special treatment , that s all .
John : Okay , fair enough .
Marlena : I think you should be seen at the hospital .
Aiden : I m fine , really , I am .
Hope : Okay , all right . Tough guy . He s pretty stubborn sometimes .
Aiden : Which is why we are a perfect match .
Hope : Thanks for coming over . I got it from here , okay ?
John : Okay , we ll get out of your hair .
Marlena : Yeah , now look , you take good care of yourself .
Aiden : Yeah .
John : I m gon na check the video camera surveillance on the way out . Do nt worry , we ll get this guy .
Hope : Good night .
Aiden : No doubt you will . Thanks for coming by . Sorry if I was rude , I ...
Hope : No , no , you ve been through a lot tonight . It s completely understandable . I understand . I m sure they understand , as well . I bet you re pretty tired of talking about what happened tonight , huh , Jennings ?
Aiden : [ Grunts ]
Hope : Careful , careful , dont -- dont move .
Aiden : How did you know ? Besides , there s really not much left to say about it .
Hope : A text message from you earlier . Only a portion of it came through . What did you want to tell me ?
Clyde : Yeah , go ahead and arrest me , big guy . Bartender without a license .
Rafe : Oh , I will arrest you . But when I do , it wo nt be for a misdemeanor .
Clyde : Yeah ?
Rafe : Mm - hmm .
Clyde : You do nt even have a clue as to what you think I did . You just do nt like the way I look , Rafe . You know what that s called ? Profiling . You got something against people with southern persuasion ?
Rafe : No . I got something against people of the criminal persuasion . And yeah , you re right , I may not have a smoking gun yet , but you know what Shakespeare says about pride . Oh , wait , I m sorry , of course you do nt . He that is proud eats up himself .
Clyde : Yeah , well , if you ve got the hubris -- you can look that word up , Rafe-- to think that you can make anything stick against me , you get ready to eat your heart out .
Aiden : Um ... my text , right , um , it was about Clyde .
Hope : Wait , you got upset earlier when I wanted to talk about Clyde . You said it violated attorney / client privilege , even though he s no longer--
Aiden : My client .
Hope : Yeah .
Aiden : Yeah . I dropped Clyde because I learned some potentially unsettling information . But I had no proof , so I hired an investigator to look into it . And that file that you saw on my desk , that was from him .
Hope : You could be disbarred if Clyde found out .
Aiden : I know . But I did it because I love you . You ve been so driven to get something on this guy . If you re gon na put yourself in some terrible danger , I had to know .
Hope : You re the sweetest . But once you ve been up against Stefano DiMera , Clyde Weston is ... [ Blows air ] Nothing .
Aiden : [ Chuckles ] Do nt make me laugh .
Hope : Sorry .
Aiden : But I do know that even more now .
Hope : You do , really ?
Aiden : He s clean . I was shocked , too . I know .
Hope : But how can you be sure ?
Aiden : [ Sighs ] Turns out there s an old business competitor . He s got a grudge against Clyde in Missouri . And he s been badmouthing him for years to anyone who would listen , so there s no truth behind the rumors . Told my investigator , the Salem pd , the FBI that came up empty--
Hope : So , just um ... are you gon na represent Clyde again ? Are you thinking about that ?
Aiden : No . No , I mean , too difficult to explain all that , so I do nt really like him anyway and happy with the status quo . [ Laughs softly ]
Hope : Wow , I just , I mean , you spent your own money to hire a personal investigator .
Aiden : I did it for you . Besides my son , you re all that matters to me . I can rest easy . You are safe . Well , safe as cop can be .
Hope : I m really sorry . I know you did nt want to talk about this .
Aiden : How d you know ? [ Chuckles ] Stop making me laugh . Well , there s really not much left to say about it .
Hope : I wish I had been here . I would have taken care of that guy , believe me .
Aiden : Mmm ... [ Laughs softly ] Oh ...
Hope : Did I hurt you ?
Aiden : Uh , no , no . No , you did nt . Come here .
Hope : Oh , God . Thank God you re okay . You have nt been in my life very long ... but I ca nt imagine it without you . I really ca nt . No , no , dont -- dont move . Do nt move .
John : Security cameras were malfunctioning -- you re sure about that ? No , it just seems pretty convenient . So I ll tell you what . Why do nt you check those cameras out , see if they might have been tampered with . Then call me back .
Marlena : Wow . What a shame .
John : There s just something really off about all this .
Marlena : And I know you ll be up half the night worrying about it . You know , Roman tells me that all the fellows at the police station are thrilled to have you back . It makes me wonder why that s not enough for you .
John : Wish I knew .
Marlena : Well , if it s about the travel , I could arrange some exotic trips for us . And , uh , if it s ... something more than that ... maybe it s the intrigue of the adventure , you think ?
John : Do you think I m idealizing what this job is about ?
Marlena : Only you can answer that . Look , I know this kind of opportunity does not come along every day . I know it s nice to be wanted . I want you here . But only if that s what you want .
John : Doc , I wanna be here , it s just ...
Marlena : I know . I know we re taking this slowly so that we get it right . Look , I would never ask you to make a compromise that you were nt prepared to make . But after all we ve been through ... I do nt want to go through losing you again .
Paige : I was just trying to save you , because that s the kind of person that I am . But you just decide that it has to be because I still love you ? Get over yourself !
JJ : You took a big risk to help me get out of there . You do nt do that for a guy that you hate .
Paige : You know what ? If you really did love me the way you say you did , you would nt be pressuring me . You d respect what I m telling you and know that I will never , ever get over what you put me through .
JJ : Paige , Paige--
Paige : No !
JJ : If you just give me a chance--
Paige : Just leave me alone . I mean it .
JJ : Kyle .
Kyle : Hey , I m at my place . Get over here ... now . I will take beauty into my own hands ... where it belongs .
JJ : What s going on ?
Kyle : What s up ? Have a seat . Bro , I said have a seat .
Marlena : John , it s just not the same , it s ... it s not the same kind of danger . I mean ... the thing is , with this job , youd -- youd be keeping lots of secrets . You d have to be telling lots of lies . That s just part of ... the job .
John : So that s what this is all about ? Doc ... honesty has never been an issue with us . When we said our vows together , we ... rode it out through sickness and health , better or worse . Even death and the DiMeras could nt keep us apart . So we can do this . I do nt have any doubt in my mind .
Marlena : You d better take that .
John : The ISA can wait .
Hope : We ve been round and round about Clyde these past couple of months . Amen , thank God it s finally over .
Aiden : Mm ...
Hope : Sometimes it can be really hard being on opposite sides of the law , huh ?
Aiden : Well , we re not exactly on opposite sides .
Hope : Oh , come on . You know what I mean . I arrest the criminals , and you defend them . But Aiden , you know , what s really important ? It s the trust that we share .
Aiden : I agree .
Hope : I really ca nt even express how important that is to me . It s the kind of thing you ... you take for granted , and then ... one day , it s gone . That s what happened with Bo and me . When , um ... when our son died , he lied to me about something that I never thought I could ever forgive him for . Took me years to completely trust him again . And then he ... I m sorry .
Aiden : What ? It s okay--
Hope : No , I just ... I never in my wildest dreams ever thought that he would just walk out of our lives , that he-- his family was nt the most important thing to him . After having my trust shattered like that ... I never , ever thought that I could love someone again . Then you came along . I have to tell you that what was scarier than loving again ... was trusting someone again . But I do . I trust you . After everything we went through in Puget sound together , my God , I mean ... the risk you took , trusting me with your biggest secret ... I would never , ever do anything to betray that . Not ever .
Aiden : I know . So ... does this mean we can forget about Clyde ? Concentrate on us ?
Hope : Nothing I d rather do right now .
Aiden : [ Laughs ] [ Groans ] You exercise .
JJ : Yo , what the-- ?
Kyle : [ Laughs ] I ve been meaning to clean this thing . [ Humming ]
JJ : So , you wanted to talk about something ?
Kyle : Yeah . Yeah , I think I can trust you with more deets about what s going on .
JJ : Like ?
Kyle : Just watch your back , JJ . You know , it s not just the competition . But it s the cops and the DEA .
JJ : You hearing stuff ?
Kyle : A little bit . You got my back , right ? Cause I got yours .
JJ : Yeah , sure .
Kyle : All right .
Kyle : JJ , relax . It s just an ambulance .
JJ : Right . Nothing to worry about .
Kyle : You good ?
JJ : Yeah .
Daphne : What s wrong ?
Paige : Oh ... just everything .
Daphne : It ca nt be that bad . Okay . What about your awesome roommate who will buy you a fro yo and tell you sad tales of my non - existent love life ?
Paige : [ Laughs softly ] No . Be grateful , Daphne . Falling in love was the biggest mistake I ever made . Now I do nt know what to do .
Rafe : Whoa !
Marlena : Hello .
Rafe : Well , good evening .
John : My beautiful date and I were hoping we could still get a table .
Rafe : Yeah .
John : Sorry I missed the earlier reservation . Got called out on a 911 .
Rafe : Is everyone okay ?
John : Aiden Jennings got attacked at Salem inn .
Rafe : What ?
Marlena : And thank goodness he was nt badly hurt .
Rafe : Well , who did it ?
John : Do nt know . Some mugger came in off the street . Gloves , mask , no videos , no witnesses except for Aiden . He ca nt tell us anything .
Rafe : Well , that s strange that you got called in on a routine b and E.
John : They did nt . Hope was there . A little shaken up .
Rafe : Hope was there ? Is she all right ?
Marlena : She got there after it happened . She s fine .
Rafe : Good . Good .
Hope : Better ?
Aiden : Much . Thank you .
Hope : We ca nt stay here tonight .
Aiden : We could get another room .
Hope : I have a better idea . Come home with me .
Aiden : But the kids ...
Hope : They re at a sleepover , remember ? You re part of my life now , Aiden . And I want to take care of you . I do nt want to hide out in a hotel room anymore . I want to be with you . In my own bed .
Aiden : That s exactly where I want to be .

Dixie : Thank you , David . That was amazing . I m yours .
David : That s not what I expected .
Dixie : Oh , what ? I m not supposed to strip naked and race you to the bed ?
David : I do want to help you .
Dixie : Oh -- and we both know what you want in return . I do nt think so .
David : No . No . I meant what I said .
Dixie : No strings ?
David : Yes . But I do still love you , Dixie . That has not changed .
Dixie : You know what ? Your love hurts everyone that you get close to . Especially my son .
Babe : You want me to prove that I love your brother ? Did I get that right , Jamie ?
Jamie : Yeah . My brother s not in a good place right now .
Babe : Yeah , Dixie stomped on him so hard he ca nt even think straight . It s obviously hit you the exact same way . You re both mad at the whole world .
Jamie : Not the whole world .
Babe : Meaning what , just me ?
Jamie : Whatever , Babe . I have things to do .
Jamie : Damn it ! I do nt have time for this !
Babe : Tough . Make time .
Jonathan : Good - bye , Lily .
Lily : Bye , Jonathan .
Lily s voice : I have a plan .
Jonathan : What plan , Lily ?
Jack : So , I guess you just about have that schedule memorized now , do nt you ?
Lily : There are nine stops between Philadelphia and New York City .
Jack : And then we take the Green Mountain Express , right ?
Lily : But it s not an express . There are 15 stops before you get to the boarding school stop .
Jack : Well , I know , honey . I guess I could have hoped for a little more direct trains , but I wanted to spend a little time with you so we could talk .
Zach : Is everything okay ? Are you all right ?
Kendall : No . No , I m not all right . Oh , my God , Zach !
Zach : I got you . Stay calm . Are you cramping ? Are you in pain ?
Kendall : Yeah , yeah , it hurts .
Zach : Where does it hurt ?
Kendall : It hurts -- it hurts here , and it hurts here .
Zach : Ok , where else ? Is there anywhere else ?
Kendall : It hurts everywhere . I ca nt -- I ca nt breathe , and I ca nt think . It just -- it hurts , Zach , and there s nothing that you can do or anyone else can do to stop it .
Zach : Ok .
Jack : Sweetheart , will you please look at me ? Please . Now , you say there s nine stops till we get to New York , is that right ?
Lily : Eight . Between Philadelphia and New York City . New York City will be the ninth stop .
Jack : So you are still speaking to me . Good .
Lily : North Philadelphia , Cornwallis Heights , Trenton , Princeton --
Jack : Honey , I know you re upset .
Lily : I m not upset .
Jack : You re unhappy .
Lily : I m not upset or unhappy , I m just studying the schedule . After Princeton , the train goes to New Brunswick , Metro Park , Newark Airport , then Newark , then finally New York City .
Jack : And then we take the train that takes us up to Vermont . And then before long , we ll be there .
Lily : Why is your mouth turned down ? You wanted this .
Jack : Not really I did nt . Sweetheart , I m -- I do nt want to have to say good - bye to you .
Lily : If you did nt really want to say good - bye to me , you would nt force me to go away back to my old school .
Julia : How many of these are there ? I --
Jonathan : Hey , can I help you , Julia ?
Julia : Oh -- yes ! This is making me nuts . Ok , just open up one of these and put a file right on the top .
Jonathan : Ok .
Julia : Thank you so much .
Jonathan : Remember when I asked you to teach Lily how to be on her own ? I mean , not to need anyone ?
Julia : Well , we all need other people , Jonathan . That s part of being human .
Jonathan : Well , I wanted you to show her how to be more independent , so that she could be her own person .
Julia : Lily seems to me to be her own person . Is nt she ?
Jonathan : She s unique . I like that about her . There s no girl like Lily in the entire world . I could spend every day with Lily and never get bored . But Jackson wo nt let us be -- wo nt let us be together .
Julia : I m sorry . Maybe if you re just patient , Jackson will come around .
Jonathan : No . No , Jack hates me . But as long as Lily s going to be all right .
Julia : Why would nt she be all right ?
Jonathan : I just could nt take it if Lily got hurt .
Julia : Jonathan , is there some reason why Lily might get hurt ? Is she in trouble ?
Jonathan : Maybe .
Babe : J.R. and I reciting our vows and I dos -- I was the one holding the bouquet . Do you remember toasting the bride , me , and the groom , J.R. ?
Jamie : Yeah , I remember .
Babe : Then what is your problem , Jamie ?
Jamie : Well , I also remember a series of scams . You in bed with Bianca to freak out J.R. Oh , and you in bed with Josh to freak me out .
Babe : I did that for you .
Jamie : And , yeah , yeah , it s for my own good , I know , so I would cut you loose and inherit Aunt Phoebe s money . Gee , thanks . But you know , the one I ca nt get over , the whopper of them all , is the one that -- how you planned to get Little A away from my brother . How you planned to marry J.R. , set him up , and then bust him as unfit .
Babe : This was ages ago . Why are you bringing it up now ?
Jamie : Because I would so love to believe you , Babe , but you re just so damn good at playing people .
Babe : If I did nt want to spend the rest of my life with my husband , I would be with J.R. right now mixing him pitchers of martinis , toasting my good luck . If I wanted J.R. to be an 80-proof puddle of unfit parent , Dixie would be my golden ticket to single motherhood .
David : Dixie , please --
Dixie : You love me ? You torture me .
David : That is not true . I was angry .
Dixie : Angry ? So you set it up so that my son sees me for the first time in a casino bar with a drink in my hand ? If you re mad at me , do something to me , but leave my son out of it .
David : I know , I know , I know . I am sorry . It was stupid .
Dixie : It was more than stupid , it was vicious . And it was exactly what I should have expected from you , David . But , you know , I -- I did nt need your help to break my son s heart . I was just doing a terrific job of that all by myself . I m a terrible mother . I know that . I have nt been there . I have nt protected him . But I love him . And there s nothing that I would nt do . Nothing .
David : I got to share in your love once . And I know how precious it is . Your son is very lucky to have you for a mother . He is .
Zach : Ok . We ll drop anchor at the nearest harbor and get you to a hospital , make sure everything s ok .
Kendall : You might want to radio ahead and tell them to have two surgeons waiting for me -- cardiac and neuro . Maybe they can --
Zach : Here you go .
Kendall : Fix my heart and my brain , so I can come out of anesthesia mommy - fied like those -- those women on those baby soap commercials . They have the glow , the motherhood glow . They have this love , the light that just shines right out of their eyes -- something that I may never have , but I would love to have . Sharing their lives with their babies keeps them happy and alive .
Zach : Is that what you want ?
Kendall : Yeah , right . Can you imagine ? Me waking up in the morning , standing over his crib . Staring at him , waiting for his eyes to open or for him to gurgle or cry , because he wants me to pick him up and feed him . Discovering flowers and butterflies . Crawling in the grass , staring up at the blue sky . Watching him grow . Sharing his life . Watching how he changes day by day . Loving him and teaching him . It s -- it s -- it s crazy . That s insane .
Zach : You do nt want to give up your child . You want to keep him .
Kendall : Of course . I should have known you were the same old Zach . You are controlling and manipulative . I -- why did I even fall for this ? I should have known better . You re trying to control my life like everybody else . You kidnap me , and then you tell me that I want to keep my child ? What is that ? What , is that some -- some mind control technique or something ?
Zach : I want you to have what you want , and what you want is that baby .
Kendall : No , do nt tell me what I want or do nt want . How the hell would you know ?
Zach : You just told me .
Jack : Sweetheart , I wish I could make you happy .
Lily : You can . We can get off this train at the next stop , and we can go back home , and I can call Jonathan and tell him I m coming .
Jack : If I thought that that was what was best for you , I would do it in a heartbeat . But I ca nt .
Lily : Because you do nt think it s what s right for me .
Jack : It s my job to protect you , sweetheart . It s my job to keep you safe . That s what a parent does . Do you understand ?
Lily : We all have to do what we think is right .
Jonathan : New situations are tough enough for Lily .
Julia : Well , at least it s a school that she s been to before . I know it s going to be rough on both of you , but you ll survive , and -- and Lily will come back . And I am five minutes late for a staff meeting . Jonathan , thank you . And -- and do nt worry . Lily will be fine .
Babe : I could buy J.R. a bigger , better flask . Help him suck down more booze , numb the pain . Help him sink to the bottom of the bottle . But I want to help J.R. get through this in one piece . And in order for me to do that , I m going to need everyone who loves him to work with me . So tell me now , are you with me , or are you against J.R. ? Fine .
Zach : You want your son .
Kendall : You do nt get it . You could never possibly understand .
Zach : No , I get it . I was listening , and I heard you . You want to be his mom . You re mocking it , you know , talking about the tall grass and the gurgling and the coughing and all that stuff , but you want to raise him . That s what you said and that s what I saw .
Kendall : Parenting is the most difficult , most important job in the world . And there are a million different ways to screw it up . A child is so innocent . Their hearts are so open and fragile . They -- they need to be nurtured and loved and encouraged . And a mother holds all of that and her child s happiness in her hands .
Zach : Ok . So run this past me one more time . What part of mothering do you think you ca nt deliver ?
Dixie : At least I know that J.R. s tough front is all an act to protect whatever s left of his heart . Whatever I ve left . Make that whatever we ve left .
David : I do wish I could take it back , Dixie . But I ca nt . I reacted , and I regret it .
Dixie : Thank you . Does nt help .
David : Try not to forget , Tad and J.R. were not the only ones who mourned you . And when you showed up again , of course I was hoping that we might be able to find something of what we once had .
Dixie : It s never going to happen , David . Ok ? Please , forget about it . All I need is this .
David : It s yours .
Dixie : What do you want ? How much money do you want for it ?
David : It s my treat . For old time s sake . Dose up Madden . Find out everything you need to know -- about Kate .
J.R. : Well , is this a private meeting or can anyone join ?
Babe : Actually , I had cornered Jamie and forced him to listen to me worry about you . I even pushed the emergency stop button , so he could nt get away .
J.R. : Nobody s cross - examining you , so just relax .
Babe : I just did nt want you to think I was hiding anything .
J.R. : Well , why would I think that ? I trust you . I trust our vows . I trust my brother , too .
Jamie : But ?
J.R. : Look , I do nt need baby - sitting from either one of you guys .
Jamie : We know that .
J.R. : Dixie s alive . It s like déjà vu , but I m ok . I m fine . I ve got everything I need right here . Well , except maybe for some buffalo wings and some super nachos . Are you up for some spicy , greasy snacks ?
Jamie : Ah , you know the way to my heart . Jalapeños , chili , and hot barbecue sauce . [ J.R. and Babe laugh
J.R. : Is that junk food for three ?
Babe : Uh -- thank you , I ll pass . I m going to catch something nutritious at home with Little A.
J.R. : Ok .
Jonathan : Amanda . You -- you can do this .
Amanda : Oh . What s got you so wound up ?
Jonathan : It s big , Amanda . It s really big , and -- and I need your help .
Amanda : Let me guess -- you want me to take Lily shopping again ?
Jack : You re not going to be at school forever , honey .
Lily : I know .
Jack : Once you get over this Jonathan phase -- and I m sure that ll be very soon -- then you ll be home .
Lily : May I go find the bathroom ?
Jack : Sure . You re not under arrest .
Lily : I know . No handcuffs .
Kendall : Unconditional love may be a foreign concept to you .
Zach : Sounds vaguely familiar .
Kendall : Yeah . Well , it s a psychobabble myth . Or something that real mothers actually possess . How would I know ?
Zach : You do nt have it ?
Kendall : Not even close . And a mother should have that .
Zach : Well , I have nt read the mother s handbook . I have it , but I --
Kendall : Do -- wait -- do you think this is a joke ?
Zach : No , not even close .
Kendall : You have no idea what I put Alice Hart through when I was a kid .
Zach : I can imagine .
Kendall : Ok , well , imagine this -- I was impossible . I was neurotic , I was annoying -- a self - critical brat . That does nt even begin to describe it . I was just a humongous pain in the butt .
Zach : Hmm . Thank God you ve matured . But Alice still loved you anyway .
Kendall : Yeah , like you have no idea . And did I ever appreciate my loving mother ? No , I just -- I -- I rejected her . I criticized everything from her unflattering hairstyle to her cheap , outdated clothes , to the hideous orange curtains in our kitchen . I was -- I was awful , I was horrendous . But somehow , Alice still adored me . Now , I would have locked me up until I was 18 .
Zach : It might have worked .
Kendall : Right . My point is I do nt have any of this deep love and devotion in me . I m less Alice Hart and more Joan Crawford .
Zach : How do you know ? You have nt raised a child .
Kendall : We re talking about a child s life here , not a lip - gloss test sample . I am awful when it comes to -- to any kind of love . Look at my track record . It sucks .
Zach : You still love Erica , right ?
Kendall : Of course , I do .
Zach : After everything she s done to you , all the things she s said -- you still love her .
Kendall : Yeah , and your point is ?
Zach : Well , I ve done awful things to you , and you still love me . I know you do nt want to be with me , and you do nt trust me , but you still love me . Oh , and another thing -- those women in the commercial , the motherly glint in their eye -- I think that comes from the residual checks , not motherly love .
Kendall : Ok , I was just using that as sort of a , you know , example .
Zach : Yeah , no , I get it . I ll give you a better one . Your eyes on New Year s Eve when all those balloons went off . Never seen love like that . Kendall ?
Kendall : I think there really is something wrong with him .
Zach : Hey , look at me . What is it ?
Kendall : I do nt feel anything . I -- I do nt -- I feel nothing , I mean , not since I fell . He has nt moved -- no hiccups , no somersaults , no nothing .
Zach : Hey . Shh .
Kendall : I do nt feel anything , Zach !
Zach : Calm down , calm down . I ll get the captain to radio ahead .
Kendall : Ok .
Zach : Stay calm .
Kendall : Hurry up .
David : It does nt take a sixth sense to figure it out , Dixie . When you left Pine Valley , you were pregnant . You were concerned because you had a high - risk pregnancy . Dr. Greg Madden is God s Ob - Gyn gift to women the world over . Now , when you survived the accident , you had to go to a doctor . It certainly was nt the one I set you up with or else I would ve heard about it . Your problems must ve skyrocketed once you walked away from that crash .
Dixie : Yeah , you do nt know the half of it . My business with Dr. Madden has nothing to do with you , so just forget about it .
David : If that s your line for now , fine . Whatever you want , I want .
Dixie : You know what I want ? I want you to give up this crazy obsession that you have with me .
David : Now , that I can not do .
Dixie : And I want you to leave my son alone . Because if you do anything like what you did before , if you hurt him in any way , I swear to God I will make you regret that I came back in a way that you will never forget .
J.R. : Yeah . This is when it pays to have a medicine man in the family . Tell me , what is the treatment for a rusted - out stomach lining ? Nah , never mind -- surprise me .
Jamie : We d just replace it with a zinc bucket . Wait till you hear food hit that baby .
J.R. : That s something to look forward to . Thank you . Ah .
Jamie : You know , every couple of hours , something makes life seem normal again .
J.R. : Yeah . Every now and then .
Jamie : Just when you thought life was great , you thought wrong .
J.R. : Yeah , tell me about it . I lost 300 bucks on last night s game .
Jamie : Man , you know I m not talking sports . The Green Street Chili Pit , dude -- closed after 12 years . I ve been crying myself to sleep for days . Seriously , though , you think we re ever going to get Dixie s story ?
J.R. : Seriously ? I do nt really care . Maybe I do nt want to know .
Jamie : Yeah , I ve thought that . If somebody does nt want to tell you something so bad , maybe it s best just to leave it alone .
J.R. : It s kind of hard with them all freaking out the way they are .
Jamie : Babe is scared and worried about you . She s your wife , she has every right to be . I ca nt make her feel better -- only you can do that . So what s the deal , J.R. ? How worried should Babe be ?
Adam : Finally . Would you have a seat ? I d like to say something .
Babe : Better idea -- hold your thought until I m finished with you .
Jack : Hello ?
Amanda : Hello , Mr. Montgomery ?
Jack : Yes . Who s this ?
Amanda : This is Amanda Dillon . I -- I was hoping to talk to Lily . Is she there ?
Jack : Well , actually , she s -- she s not available right now .
Amanda : Ok . When she is , could you have her give me a call ? I thought maybe we could go shopping later .
Jack : Amanda , she s in the -- she s in the ladies room right now , but the fact is we re on a train . I m -- I m taking her back to her old school .
Amanda : Oh , wow . She did nt mention it . Ok . Will you just have her give me a call when she gets a chance ?
Jack : Sure , I will .
Amanda : Thanks . Have a nice trip .
Jack : We ll do our best .
Amanda : Bye . Lily -- he said she was in the bathroom , and he was totally calm . Lily is fine .
Zach : Hey . We re going to dock in about 20 minutes .
Kendall : What if -- what if Spike ca nt wait that long ?
Zach : What if -- what if what , Spike ?
Kendall : Yes , Spike .
Zach : No , that s good , but -- well , if he has your DNA , then I m sure he s going to be just as stubborn as you , and Spike is going to be just fine .
Kendall : No , I just -- I just want to -- I want to feel him . Just come on , just give me one good , hard kick , please .
Zach : I m going to remind you of that when he steals your car and drives around at night trying to pick up women .
Kendall : He wo nt have to try . He ll get any girl he wants .
Zach : Oh , of course -- yeah . And they better be good enough for him , right ? Same with teachers and -- and coaches and friends . Otherwise , they re going to have to deal with you . You re going to fight for him . What more could any child want ? So -- um -- Spike ? Spike . He s going to score with the ladies , is he ?
Kendall : Yeah , he -- they ca nt ignore him . He wo nt let them . He wo nt let me , either . I mean , when I m sleeping , he s just kicking away . If he s going to be awake , then I m going to be awake , too . And then with the food -- I mean , when the food is , you know , down in my stomach , he lets me know exactly how he feels about that . He -- let s see , ok . If it s -- if it s green and leafy , no . He hates it . Carrots -- they re ok . Corn , ok . He loves , loves potatoes , loves potatoes and , now , tomatoes he s not crazy about unless it s in the form of ketchup . He loves ice cream . I think he thinks ice cream is health food . I guess he s a pretty smart kid . He thinks it s Vitamin D. Well , there s Vitamin D in milk and so he s just -- he s really smart . He s -- he s way too smart for his own good , for my own good , too -- ah . Oh .
Zach : What ?
Kendall : He kicked . He kicked me . Spike kicked me . He s ok . Zach , he s ok .
Conductor : All passengers for New Brunswick , please exit the opposite end of the car .
Palmer : I had to see for myself .
Dixie : Uncle Palmer . Opal . It is me . I -- I am alive . Oh .
Palmer : Hmm .
Opal : You got those nitro pills handy ?
Palmer : Hmm .
Dixie : Please , sit down . Please .
Opal : So , what have you been doing with your time ? You been thinking up some great excuse for dropping off the planet ?
Palmer : I can explain that . I had a niece who was warm and loving , caring . That was before you died . And what I see before me now is cold , hateful .
Dixie : That is just --
Opal : What ? Just not fair ? You are unbelievable .
Palmer : What I -- what I see before me now is -- well , it s a person that I -- I really do nt care to know .
Palmer : You know how much I cared for your mother . And for the first time in my life , I am grateful that she s not alive , that she s not here to see , well , what has happened .
J.R. : So I knocked back a few shots .
Jamie : So how worried should I be ?
J.R. : Not . I m going through a cruddy time . We both are . And we ve both been there , right ?
Jamie : Yeah , too many times .
J.R. : Mm - hmm .
Jamie : The only difference is this one s way worse for you than it is me .
J.R. : I can deal .
Jamie : Any guy with Babe on his arm is home free .
Babe : You re J.R. s father , but if you ca nt give him what he needs , stay away . He has enough to deal with . He does nt need you making it worse .
Adam : What I need is Dixie out of town , out of the state .
Babe : Yeah , well , I want to rip her lips off and shove them up her nose . It d make me feel great , but it would nt do a damn thing for J.R.
Adam : So what s your strategy ? Ignore her ?
Babe : I want to help J.R. deal with what his mother s done to him .
Adam : Well , while he s doing that , why should nt Dixie be a million miles away ?
Babe : Oh , would you back off , Adam ? Stop messing with me . I m not messing with you . If you want to find a way to launch Dixie into outer space , that is great , you do that , but after J.R. has dealt with everything . He does nt need your junk on top of his .
Adam : So you re telling me how to be a father ?
Babe : High damn time someone did .
Adam : You know , it s no secret that I never considered you good enough for J.R.
Babe : Yeah , yeah , I m white trash . I get it , but guess what -- I love J.R. and in our vows , I will be here .
Adam : All right , would you please just be quiet . Just shut up for just a second till I say want I want to say . I thought J.R. was making the biggest mistake of his life when he hooked up with you . You are -- you are pigheaded , you re stubborn and determined . Just exactly like your mother . Which is why I m glad he s got you on his side . Because he ll need your strength just as much as he needs your love . Ok ?
Babe : I am so happy that we ended up together .
Jamie : I am , too .
Babe : I love you .
Jamie : I love you , too .
Babe : And you make a wonderful father .
Jamie : Mommy s crazy . You want to --
Jamie : Want to hit the swings , huh ?
Babe : Want to say hi to Daddy ? Want to go have him swing you ?
Jamie : Let s go . Oh , ready ?
Babe : Let s do it .
Nurse : Such a beautiful , wonderful little girl . You re a wonder -- yes , you are . Oh , I m sorry . Here she is .
Dixie : Shh .
David : Steve , listen . When you were head of Obstetrics , did nt Greg Madden consult ? Yeah , I thought I heard you mention that . Listen , can you do me a favor ? Can you find out where Madden was practicing during the early summer of 2002 ?
Amanda : I have a plan . Lily . Well , that s not much to go on .
Jonathan : Hmm , but Lily does nt lie , Amanda . She would nt write that she had a plan unless she was going to use it .
Amanda : But , Jonathan , it s not necessarily something bad .
Jonathan : She does nt like that school .
Amanda : Look , it s not a prison , ok ? Maybe her plan is to just wait it out till she turns 18 in a few days and then come back to you .
Jonathan : Her father would never let that happen . He -- he would give them orders to keep her there no matter -- no matter what .
Amanda : Ok . Then maybe her plan is to write you every night and call you , too -- so it d be like you guys are kind of together . Look , lunch at the restaurant of my choice says that Lily calls you tonight , tomorrow at the latest , to prove I m right .
Jonathan : You think ?
Amanda : Count on it .
Jack : Excuse me . I m -- I m wondering if you ve seen my daughter . She s about 54 , 17 , blonde , blue eyes , very , very shy . She was in the ladies room , but she s not there anymore . I checked the club car , but she s not there , either .
Conductor : Maybe she met a friend .
Jack : No , that s -- that s not possible .
Woman : Excuse me , but I saw a pretty blonde girl getting off the train as I was getting on in New Brunswick . I think she was headed for the taxi stand .
Jack : Excuse me .
Conductor : But this is Newark . Next stop -- Penn Station , New York City , New York .
Kendall : He is moving . I mean , he s -- he s doing somersaults and bicycling and -- and acrobats , and he s doing everything and , I mean , wow . He -- he s really moving now , Zach , and he s ok . Spike is ok , and you were right . Zach , I want my son . I want him more than anything else in this entire world . And I -- I also want you , Zach .
Babe : This baby train is leaving the station .
Krystal : You re pregnant ?
Kendall : I love you , Zach . Let me show you .

<s>### Instruction:

### Dialogue:
Griffin : Hey .
Kendall : Hey .
Griffin : Sorry I m late .
Kendall : That s ok .
Griffin : So , what s up ? Did you make any headway on Zach s letter ?
Kendall : Not yet .
Griffin : But you still believe he was trying to tell you something , right ?
Kendall : I just -- I feel it .
Griffin : Well , maybe it s time to share that feeling with the police .
Erica : You really do nt have to do this , Reverend .
Ricky : Buy Erica Kane a cup of tea ? Right . Huge sacrifice .
Erica : Well , you know what I mean . You ve already spent most of the morning giving me some advice on how I can help my daughter .
Ricky : I care about Kendall , too , and I want to see her get past her grief . And with you in her corner , she will .
Erica : With us in her corner .
Ricky : With us , right . So , shall we ?
Erica : Oh . Sorry . I should have a look .
Erica : Oh , excuse me . I should take this . Jack ?
Jack : Listen , whatever you re doing , can you get home ? It concerns our future .
Erica : I ll be home as soon as I can . Reverend , do you mind if I take a rain check ?
Ricky : Sure . Big plans ?
Erica : I m not sure .
Ricky : See you later .
Scott : Hey , I just took the trash out there .
Madison : I m tossing everything .
Scott : Wait a minute . Not my shower radio . I love that thing .
Madison : Everything of mine -- shampoos , conditioners , makeup . It s all toxic .
Scott : Well , I do nt see your hair falling out , and I do nt think your skin is melting . Wait a minute , is it ?
Madison : Make fun of me all you want , but I ve been thinking about this seriously for a while since I got pregnant , wondering what I m putting on my body , what I m putting into my body , all that .
Scott : Have you talked to your doctor ?
Madison : She made me a list . She seems to think there s nothing to worry about with all this stuff , but I do nt know . I m tossing it anyway , just to be safe . I ve really been thinking about this . Actually , I had this idea . I think Fusion should start another organic line .
Scott : Really ? Like a lip gloss that doubles as an afternoon snack ?
Madison : Given how hungry I am , that actually sounds like a pretty good idea . But no , I mean , non - toxic products that pregnant women do nt have to worry about using , you know . Nobody likes lathering their bodies in chemicals , but especially not when you re carrying a baby . Trust me . So , anyway , I wrote up a proposal .
Scott : Really ?
Madison : Mm - hmm . This whole green Madonna - and - child kind of thing . Products for the baby , too . ah -- you hate it .
Scott : Are you kidding me ? I think it s brilliant .
Madison : Really ?
Scott : Yeah , the whole world has gone organic . I mean it . This idea is like springboard material .
Madison : Yeah , if Greenlee and Kendall go for it .
Scott : Wait a minute . What is with that attitude ? You got ta go in there . You got ta sell em on it , like you just sold me -- with confidence . That s what s gon na get you noticed .
Madison : I do nt really have a problem getting noticed these days , you know what I mean ? Aah !
Scott : What s wrong ?
David : Annie ? Oh , hi . Emma ? What are you --
Ryan : Ems ! Ems ! Is that you ? Emma , it s ok . It s Daddy , sweetheart . Are you ok ?
Emma : Yeah , fine .
David : This is a really bad idea !
Ryan : Emma , where are you ? Sweetie , do you know ?
Emma : We are in Boston . We need your help .
Ryan : I know , I know , honey . You and your mommy do nt have any money , right ?
Emma : Mommy wants you to bring it to the waterfront , the long wharf .
Ryan : Sweetie , you have no idea how good it is to hear your voice , but do nt let Mommy know that you re talking to me instead of David , ok .
Emma : We ll be waiting at the wharf at midnight .
Ryan : Ok , and I know you must be scared , but I m gon na bring you home safe and sound .
Emma : I want to talk to Madison .
Ryan : Ok , she s not here right now , but I can get her . Ems ? Emma ?
Greenlee : Is she ok ? How does she sound ?
Ryan : She said that she s ok , I guess . I do nt know .
David : I ll tell you what Annie knows , that we re working together .
Greenlee : Not helping . Why did she hang up ? Was Annie there ?
Ryan : She did nt want to talk to me .
Greenlee : Who did she want to talk to ?
Ryan : Madison .
Scott : Ok , sit down .
Madison : I m fine .
Scott : You are not fine , ok ? You just had a cramp .
Madison : It s over , and it was nt even that bad .
Scott : Oh , really ? So you always say Ow just for fun ?
Madison : I ca nt just sit around here . I have to go into work and put in my extra hours .
Scott : Ok . Here s the deal . I know it s not my place , but I do nt think you should go to work today .
Madison : Were nt you just the one who was telling me I should march in there with my head held high and sell this idea ?
Scott : Ok , hold on one second . I did nt say anything about walking style or the angle of your head .
Madison : Scott .
Scott : Ok , listen to me . I love the concept . I really do , and I think you should pitch it . I just do nt think you should do it today .
Madison : I need the money .
Scott : I can pick up extra hours .
Madison : Listen , you were right . As sweet as the offer is , it s not your place .
Scott : Ok . Well , can I at least give you a ride ?
Madison : I m good . And thanks for all the encouragement and -- just thanks .
Scott : You re welcome .
Erica : What s all this ?
Jack : What does it look like ?
Erica : Well , Jack , I know that things have been tense between us lately , but after last night , I really felt we were on the same wavelength .
Jack : Oh , we are .
Erica : What we have is worth fighting for .
Jack : It is .
Erica : Well , then , why have you packed even more suitcases ?
Jack : I m sorry I could nt tell you about this .
Erica : Why not ?
Jack : Because it would have ruined all the fun . These are nt just my things in here . They re ours .
Erica : Are we going somewhere ?
Jack : Why do nt you come with me and find out ?
Griffin : Man in uniform right over there . Now s your chance .
Kendall : To what , go over and talk to him and make him think I m a headcase ?
Griffin : Have you completely blocked out our conversation ? You got all up in my grill about this real deep love , about the impact of that kind of a connection .
Kendall : Well , what do I know ?
Griffin : You know your husband . You know Zach . You know he would nt call you a name like sweetheart unless he was trying to tell you something -- something about what happened . You still believe that ?
Kendall : Yeah .
Griffin : Then prove it .
Kendall : You re good , you know that ?
Griffin : So I ve been told .
Kendall : Ok .
Diana : Saw you talking to Erica Kane before .
Ricky : And ?
Diana : Not sure how chatting up the mother s gon na help your cause . You re not supposed to be trying to date the daughter . You re trying to find the evidence --
Ricky : I know what I m trying to do .
Diana : Really ? Because Kendall s in there about to talk to a cop .
Ricky : For all we know , she s donating to the precinct .
Diana : Or spilling her suspicions about her dead husband s letter that you rewrote .
Ricky : Cops got nothing on us .
Diana : So , everything s just peachy . No one s gon na pin Zach s murder on you ? Kendall s not gon na find the evidence that s gon na send us to prison ? Is that what you re saying ?
Ricky : What I m saying is you do nt have to worry about Kendall . She s not the problem . That doctor is .
Diana : Because he s trying to move in on your little girlfriend ?
Ricky : Because he wo nt let her put Zach s death in the past . But if Castillo keeps this up , I got something to nail him with .
Diana : What ?
Ricky : Well , it seems like the good doctor s been stealing drugs from the hospital to give to the poor . Still a crime , though -- and a sin .
Kendall : The first time I read it , I was really emotional . I was all over the place . And even though I could nt focus 100 % , I kept hitting on the same message .
Brot : Which was ?
Kendall : Zach said that if something happened to him , it was not an accident .
Brot : But there s nothing in this letter that indicates that .
Kendall : I know .
Griffin : Except for --
Kendall : Ok , this is gon na sound crazy , but in the last page , Zach called me sweetheart , and he never called me that , ever . Terms of endearment were not his thing .
Brot : Maybe he got sidetracked .
Kendall : Zach never got sidetracked .
Griffin : We think he was trying to send her a message .
Brot : Anything else to back this up ? Have you noticed anyone following you ? Any prank calls ? Any hang - ups ? Anything like that ?
Kendall : No .
Brot : What about have you noticed anything out of place at home , at the office ? Seen anyone suspicious at all ?
Kendall : Well , no . Not since Zach died .
Brot : So , shady stuff like this was happening when he was alive ?
Kendall : Yeah , we did get threatened by some of his casino partners .
Brot : Ok , well , that s something .
Kendall : But Ryan already investigated the crash , and his people said that everything is fine , the case is closed . Ok , you think I m losing my mind , do nt you ?
Brot : If you think Zach was trying to tell you something , I m not gon na tell you you re wrong .
Jack : Almost there . Ok ?
Erica : Ok .
Jack : Now open your eyes . so , what do you think ?
Erica : Well , I think we re on Kendall and Zach s yacht , but I do nt understand why . Did she give you the key ?
Jack : The key and her blessing .
Erica : Her blessing ? Did you buy this ?
Jack : I did .
Erica : When ? How ?
Jack : You remember Zach was trying to sell this boat before --
Erica : Yeah , then the sale fell through .
Jack : And I did nt think much of it , then I had this wonderful idea . We had so many good times , on our boat , on the At Last . Why ca nt this be our new safe haven ? The place we go to shut out the rest of the world , just focus on us . So I took this idea to Kendall . She thought it was a damn good one , and here we are .
Erica : I do nt know what to say !
Jack : I m hoping that s not because you have any doubts about us .
Erica : The last thing I feel when I look at you is doubt .
Jack : You can decorate it any way you want .
Erica : Well , that goes without saying .
Jack : Then when our troubles get to be too much for us , we just sail away .
Erica : We are so good , when it s just the two of us .
Jack : Yes , we are . So , does that mean you re in ?
Erica : I just love your surprise .
Jack : We will make so many wonderful memories on this boat .
Erica : I ca nt wait .
Jack : Who said anything about waiting ?
Erica : Ok , all right . I better just -- you know it gon na drive us crazy . It ll just ring and ring and ring .
Jack : Are nt you gon na take it ?
Erica : No . It s just Caleb . Talk to him later .
Jack : Come here .
Kendall : Ok , well , if you think it is worth pursuing , then where will you start ?
Brot : Whoa , unfortunately , the police ca nt do anything .
Griffin : Why not ?
Brot : Because there s not enough evidence to warrant an investigation . I really wish we could help . I really do . For the record , I m a big believer in going with your gut . That kind of thinking saved my ass many times .
Kendall : Thank you . Thank you for hearing me out .
Brot : No problem .
Kendall : Well , that went well .
Griffin : Hey , do nt get down on yourself .
Kendall : I m not down . I m just -- I do nt know what I am .
Griffin : You heard the man .
Kendall : Yeah , humoring me because he felt sorry for me , because I just lost my husband . He can see that I m an emotional wreck , but this has got ta stop .
Griffin : What do you mean , this has got ta stop ?
Kendall : Look at me . This whole thing spiraling out of control , and it needs to stop . I need to stop .
Griffin : No , you ca nt do that .
Randi : Hey , sexy mama .
Madison : Hey .
Randi : Wow . There s no hiding that pregnancy any more , is there ?
Madison : Luckily , I do nt have to worry about that anymore .
Randi : Does that mean you ve told Ryan ?
Madison : Keep your voice down .
Randi : I ll take that as a no . He still does nt know that s his baby ?
Madison : Ryan has enough to worry about right now with Emma missing . Can we not talk about him , please ?
Randi : Fine . Done . What do you want to talk about ?
Madison : Me . Well , not me per se , but kind of --
Randi : Madison .
Madison : Oh , sorry . I have this great idea for a new product line .
Randi : Fusion . Hey , Joanna . What ? And they named us specifically ? Ok , I ll look into ?
Madison : What happened ?
Randi : Something that s not gon na make Greenlee or Kendall happy .
Greenlee : What did he say ?
Ryan : The FBI s gon na send some guys to Boston just in case Annie does show up where she said she would show up .
David : Well , I would nt count on that one . If you would have just stuck with the plan , let me speak to Emma --
Ryan : Yeah , cause it s crazy that you would want to talk to my daughter who s been missing all this time .
David : I m just saying . I will bet you anything the reason Emma hung up is because Annie realized she was nt talking to me . The woman might be out of her mind , but she s not an idiot .
Greenlee : You know what , Annie still needs money , so she could risk it . Talk to me about Emma . How did she sound ?
Ryan : She sounded really programmed , like every syllable that came out of her mouth was controlled , like she was being coached .
Greenlee : She must have been happy to hear your voice , right ?
Ryan : No , she was nt . She was nt happy . She did nt even seem surprised . It was almost like Annie prepped her that it s a possibility she could be talking to me .
Greenlee : Listen , she s ok , right ? That s the most important thing .
Ryan : I was just thinking about all the lies that Annie s probably filling her head with . Emma needs to be home . She needs to get here now , safe , with us .
Greenlee : I know .
Ryan : I m gon na go call Madison , let her know there s a chance Emma could be calling , ok ?
Greenlee : What ?
David : Look , I do nt mean to sound insensitive , but do you have any idea when you might put in a good word for me to get my medical license back ?
Greenlee : My stepdaughter is out there , God knows where . My husband is sick with worry , but sure , David , I ll get right on it .
David : The sarcasm is nt necessary .
Greenlee : Do you see Emma here ? No ? Me neither . The deal was that you would help bring her back , then you get your precious job .
David : Why are you so upset with me ?
Greenlee : Because you said that you could help , and you ca nt . We just spent all this time getting so close , and we just actually went backwards .
David : I ll tell you what . I have another theory , and it has nothing to do with me . You re pissed off right now , because Ryan does nt need you . He needs Madison . Am I warm ?
Greenlee : Hello ?
Randi : Greenlee , it s Randi .
Greenlee : Whatever it is can wait .
Randi : Actually , it ca nt . Are you sitting down ?
Greenlee : Ok , I ll deal with it .
David : Is something wrong ?
Greenlee : Nothing that I ca nt handle .
David : Is there anything I can do ?
Greenlee : You see an opportunity , and you pounce , do nt you ?
David : This is nt about getting my job back . In fact , it s not about me at all .
Greenlee : Everything you do is about you or for you .
David : Is it really so difficult for you to believe that I still care ?
Greenlee : If you ca nt help me find Ryan s daughter , then I want nothing to do with you . In fact , you should just leave .
David : I can help you with this , Greenlee .
Greenlee : Go . Get in touch with Madison ?
Ryan : No . I talked to Scott . Hey , what s going on ? Hayward do something ?
Greenlee : No , David is the least of my worries , actually . Randi just called , and apparently an ingredient we use in our new blush and lipstick is potentially toxic .
Ryan : What ? Are you serious ? You got ta get over there .
Greenlee : No . What about you and Emma ?
Ryan : I m gon na go to Boston . I m gon na pray Annie does the right thing .
Greenlee : I m coming with you .
Ryan : There s no reason for you to come with me .
Greenlee : Yes , there is . I ll call Kendall and let her know what s going on .
Ryan : Do you think Kendall can handle a crisis right now ?
Greenlee : No , but I do nt want you to be alone .
Ryan : Well , if all goes as planned , I wo nt be . I m gon na ask Madison to come with me .
Erica : Caleb . I got your message . I just do nt have a lot of time .
Caleb : You never do .
Erica : Actually , I m glad you called me , because there s something I wanted to run by you . I ve been doing a lot of thinking lately about Cortlandt Electronics . And I think it s time we bring our company into the 21st century . I think the answer is in new media .
Caleb : New media , huh ?
Erica : Yeah , I know that you have been gone for a long time , but surely know that people are doing everything on the Internet now . They re shopping , and they re reading and booking travel plans and watching TV . I think we need to update our website immediately -- new graphics , new content . Make Cortlandt Electronics much more accessible to the general public , not just the techies . So what do you think ?
Caleb : That s what you wanted to talk to me about ?
Erica : What else is there ?
Caleb : Oh , I do nt know . Heard you were quitting .
Kendall : Going to the police was a horrible idea . I never should have let you talk me into it .
Griffin : There s a lot of that going around , I guess .
Kendall : What does that even mean ?
Griffin : You made me believe in trusting my gut instincts when it came to people that I love . You do nt buy that anymore ?
Kendall : I do , yeah . I mean , in some situations .
Griffin : Just not the ones that count ?
Kendall : Why are you on my case about this ?
Griffin : Because you made me think differently . And believe it or not , that does nt happen a whole lot . science is all wrapped up in numbers and results . There does nt feel like there s room for anything else . But because of you , I know there is .
Kendall : Ok , well , maybe the one thing I forgot in my so important life lesson to you is that sometimes your gut and your instincts are not enough , all right ?
Griffin : Kendall --
Kendall : And this is one of those times --
Griffin : Kendall , you re making a big mistake . You were going in the right direction with this .
Kendall : Would you please just stop ? Leave it alone . Just please , leave it alone .
Ricky : Is there a problem ?
Griffin : Reverend , just back up .
Kendall : Wait a minute . Wait . If anyone needs to back off , it s you . I m so sorry .
Griffin : Do nt apologize for me .
Kendall : Obviously I have to , cause you re not going to . Can I just call you tomorrow ?
Ricky : Yeah , sure . Just as long as you re ok .
Kendall : I m fine . I m good . Thank you .
Ricky : Ok .
Griffin : Where s this coming from ? What happened to your drive , purpose ?
Kendall : What good is a purpose if it just leads to a dead end ?
Griffin : What s making you think like this , just because you think the cops will think you re crazy ?
Kendall : Well , what if they re right ? What if I am crazy ?
Griffin : You re not .
Kendall : I have nothing to back this up .
Griffin : That s not true . You have --
Kendall : A feeling ? I have a feeling ? That s nothing even close to proof . Forget about this feeling , all right , not when it completely ruins my entire life . Do you know that I ca nt even remember the last time that I spent time with Spike and Ian , when I actually laughed with them or talked to them or asked about their day ? My boys deserve a mother who s present for them , a mother who knows what s going on with them .
Griffin : You can do both .
Kendall : No , I ca nt . I ca nt . I made up something in a letter to keep my husband alive , so that I could do something for him . It does nt matter . There s nothing I could do for Zach . I ca nt do anything for him ever again . So , thank you very much , but why do nt you just go save the world ?
Erica : So where did you hear this rumor ?
Caleb : Oh , a little birdie . Your gal pal .
Erica : Opal .
Caleb : She made quite a pitch to take your place , and I almost took her up on it .
Erica : Very funny .
Caleb : So -- you bailing or not ?
Erica : Not .
Caleb : We re still partners ?
Erica : Just do nt make me regret it .
Caleb : Well , I m relieved to hear that . Who else would supply the drama ?
Erica : I think you bring enough of that on your own .
Caleb : So was it really a rumor ?
Erica : I m sorry ?
Caleb : You heard me .
Erica : The thought of quitting crossed my mind .
Caleb : Why ?
Erica : Because our partnership was beginning to interfere with my personal life and not in a good way .
Caleb : Good old Jackson .
David : Damn it .
Scott : Rough day ?
David : Hello , Scott .
Scott : Surprised to see you here , David . I assumed with Greenlee buying you out , I thought you were finished here , that she did nt want you around . So , tell me what happened ? Did you weasel your way back into a job here ?
David : No , but obviously you did . Last I heard , you were sporting an orange jumpsuit .
Scott : Paroled on good behavior .
David : Really ?
Scott : Yes .
David : Well , lucky you .
Scott : So if you re not working here , you have no business with our computers . That can get you thrown out of here .
David : Is that a threat , Scott ?
Scott : No , no . It s a choice . You can either leave on your own , or I call Security and have them escort you out of here .
Greenlee : Ok , so first things first . Apparently , we re not the only company using this ingredient . So find out who the others are and what if anything they re doing about it .
Randi : Ok .
Greenlee : What s this ?
Madison : Oh , it s mine . An idea that I had for an organic , non - toxic product line for expectant moms and babies .
Greenlee : Timely .
Madison : Any news on Emma ?
Ryan : Sort of why I m here . I was hoping I could talk to you for a second .
Madison : Sure .
Greenlee : What am I doing ? Kendall , it s me again . Where are you ? It s hitting the fan at Fusion . Call me back . Did you fill her in ?
Ryan : Almost .
Madison : So you re obviously going to Boston ?
Ryan : Yeah , I am , but I m really hoping that you could come with me . Look , you re the person that Emma s been reaching out to . And we just thought in case when we re there --
Greenlee : If you re worried about losing your pay , do nt be . You ll be compensated for however many hours you re gone .
Madison : I mean , this is --
Ryan : Please . Please , Madison .
Madison : You re really ok with this ?
Ryan : Of course , she s ok . Why would nt she be ? She wants Emma home as much as I do .
Caleb : Everything all right ?
Erica : No , not really . Apparently there is some crisis at Fusion and no one can get in touch with Kendall .
Caleb : I can help you find her . You want me to help ?
Erica : Thank you . No , that wo nt be necessary .
Caleb : All right . I m glad you re not quitting .
Erica : Me , too .
Caleb : Even though you re a colossal pain .
Erica : Caleb .
Caleb : Company still needs you .
Greenlee : I d give anything to go myself , and if I ever get in touch with Kendall , maybe I ll be able to .
Ryan : I ll be fine just as soon as I hear Madison is on board with this .
Madison : Yeah , I mean , of course . Anything to help Emma .
Ryan : Thank you . Thank you . I ll go get the car and bring it around , ok ?
Greenlee : Before you take off with Ryan --
Madison : I knew it . You did nt want me to go .
Greenlee : No , I do . I just want to get something straight first .
David : I ll tell you what , why do nt you knock off the high - and - mighty routine , all right ? You think I ve forgotten that trusty heart valve you funded ? You remember , the one you shoved down the Slaters throats that almost killed their son ? Who had the skills to save your sorry ass that day ?
Scott : Yeah , David , you were the hero that day . That s right . But tell me something . How does one go from saving lives one minute and then the next completely banished ?
David : That is so funny coming from you . I guess we re not so different after all , huh ? I mean , one - time CEO of Chandler Enterprises turns convict overnight ? The question that I have for you , though , how did you happen to land an admin job here when I ca nt even get a gig mopping floors ? I mean , I was once co - owner of this place once upon a time .
Scott : That s right , with your ex - wife . What a beautiful story that was , hmm ? You blackmailed her , almost got her sent to prison for life . hmm , now , why would she help out me and not a standup guy like yourself , hmm ?
David : Greenlee helped you get this job ? Now , why would she do that ? What would be in that for her ?
Kendall : Hello ? Anyone here ?
Brot s voice : What about have you noticed anything out of place at home , at the office ? Seen anyone suspicious at all ?
Kendall : Oh , God .
Jack : Oh , come on .
Kendall : Oh , my God .
Erica : Kendall .
Kendall : Mom , you scared me to death .
Jack : You ?
Erica : Who did you think we were ?
Kendall : I do nt know . I do nt know . Stalkers . Murderers . Evil people out to get me . I do nt know .
Jack : Why would you think we were any one of those ?
Kendall : That s a very good question , Jack .
Erica : Sweetheart , what s going on ?
Kendall : I ve completely lost my mind . That s what s going on . I ve been so obsessed with Zach s letter and trying to find some message that an open door , which I probably left , has me so freaked out that I m swinging whatever the heck this is -- this fire thing . I could have I killed you guys .
Jack : Thankfully , everyone s fine .
Kendall : Yeah , but I m not . And my kids wo nt be either if I do nt stop this .
Erica : Oh , now , that is ridiculous , cause you re a wonderful mother .
Kendall : When I m here , when I m present . I have nt been here in a very long time . So this is me stopping right now . I m gon na stop all the craziness . I m gon na stop the obsessing , and I m moving on with my life .
Nurse : Are you sure this amount is correct ?
Griffin : I m sure .
Scott : Well , Greenlee and I are friends . She could nt give me a job out of the goodness of her heart ?
David : Nah . Greenlee never bothered with administrative duties , especially not with hiring peons such as yourself .
Scott : No offense taken .
David : Not to mention she has Fusion to deal with , so why would she run to your rescue ? Unless , of course , you had the ability to run to her .
Scott : Oh , David , come on . You re reaching here .
David : No , I do nt think so .. Somewhere along the way , you scratched her back . All I have to do is find the itch .
Greenlee : Ryan s been through a lot the last couple weeks .
Madison : All right , even with pregnancy brain , I m aware of that .
Greenlee : Then you understand the last thing he needs right now is more stress .
Madison : I m just trying to help with Emma .
Greenlee : Just want to make sure we re on the same page .
Madison : Ooh !
Greenlee : You ok ?
Madison : Yeah , I m fine .
Greenlee : Are you sure ?
Madison : Yeah , the baby moves , and it feels kind of weird sometimes . That s all .
Ryan : Ready to go ?
Madison : Mm - hmm .
Greenlee : I hate this .
Ryan : Me , too .
Greenlee : Promise me you ll call me as soon as you know anything . It does nt matter what time it is . I ll probably be up all night with this disaster anyway .
Ryan : I promise .
Greenlee : I love you .
Ryan : I love you , too . We should get going .
Madison : Let s do it .

<s>### Instruction:
You are a helpful, respectful and honest assistant. Your task is to summarize the following dialogue. Your answer should be based on the provided dialogue only.
### Dialogue:
SEN. BILL CASSIDY (R-LA) : --seems a wasted effort. I say that because children play such a role in both protection of disease, the spread of disease et cetera. So you're thoughts on that because it really seems that's the one study where you can have you know not cookie cutter but a certainly a pattern which you can be followed.
DR. ROBERT REDFIELD, CDC DIRECTOR : Senator, I must have been misunderstood. When I was talking about differences I was thinking of the difference between an elementary school, a high school and a college in terms of how we have trade school, there may be differences in how you integrate a testing strategy, but I do think having a testing strategy with different options for people to evaluate this on different principles will be important in terms of guidance.
CASSIDY : Dr. Fauci, you persuasively argued that the risk of reopening prematurely is great. But I think the frustration if I think of children in particular, the risk benefit ratio of a child being at home potentially away from enhanced nutrition without the parents able to work because schools provide daycare without the monitoring at sometimes occurs for incidents such as child abuse. But perhaps most importantly for all children the opportunity cost of our brain which is forming not having access to the information that will help that brain form optimally. Now has there been any source of risk benefit ratio for the child? Yes, there are risks for Kawasaki, but they're particular risk for missing out on a year of education particularly for those who less in rick backgrounds I guess I am very concerned about that tension, what are your thoughts on that?
DR. ANTHONY FAUCI, DIRECTOR, NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF ALLERGY & INFECTIOUS DISEASES : You make a very good point Senator Cassidy. It is very difficult of the unintended consequences of trying to do something that broadly is important for the public health and the risk of having a resurgence of an outbreak and the unintended consequences of having children to school. We fully appreciate that. I don't have an easy answer to that. We just have to see on a step by step basis as we get into the period of time with the thought of reopening schools, exactly where we'll be and the outbreak? I may point out something that I think has been alluded to throughout some of the questions that we have a very large country and the dynamics of the outbreak on different in different regions of the country. So I would imagine that situations regarding school will be very different in one region versus another. So it is not going to be universally homogenous and I don't have a good explanation or solution to the problem of what happens when you close schools, it triggers a cascade of events and could have some circumstances.
CASSIDY : Mr. Chairman, I close by asking the permission of the Chair to submit for the record the article that just came out in the journal - children are at risk from COVID-19.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE : It will be included. Thank you Senator Cassidy. Senator Warren.
SEN. ELIZABETH WARREN, (D-MS) : Thank you Mr. Chairman and thank you to our witnesses who are being here today. I hope everybody is staying safe and healthy. In the past 16 weeks of 1.3 million Americans infected with Coronavirus, we now know that about 80,000 people have died and 33 million people are out of work. Dr. Fauci, you have advised six Presidents, you have deadly viruses - in your career. So I would just like to hear your honest opinion. Do we have the Coronavirus contained?
DR. FAUCI : Senator, thank you for the question. Right now it depends on what you mean by containment. If you think that we have it completely out of control, we don't. I mean, if you look at the dynamics of the outbreak and we are seeing hospitalizations and infectious in some places such as in New York City which is plateauing down and started to come down. New Orleans but in other parts of the country we are seeing spikes. So when you look at the dynamics of new cases, even though some are coming down, the curve looks flat with some slight coming down. So I think we are going in the right direction. The right direction does not mean we have by in means of total control of this outbreak.
WARREN : So right direction is I understand it we have about 25,000 new infections a day and over 2,000 deaths a day. I think those are the right numbers and some are estimating we could bet at 200,000 cases by June, is that right, Dr. Fauci?
DR. FAUCI : I don't foresee that as 200,000 new cases by June. I am hoping and looking at the dynamics of things starting to flatten often come down that we'll be much, much better than that, Senator.
WARREN : Just to understand we are right now at 2,000 new infections a day and 25,000 new infections a day and 2,000 deaths a day.
DR. FAUCI : Right.
WARREN : And that's where we are right now?
DR. FAUCI : Yes.
WARREN : So let me just ask, if we know that it is possible to have this virus under better control, other countries have done like South Korea, but we are now three months into this pandemic and basically we've continued to set records for the number of people who are diagnosed and the number of people who died. Dr. Fauci, you recently said that a second wave of Coronavirus in the fall was quote "Inevitable" but that if America puts in place all the counter measures that in need to address this, we should do reasonably do well. And the counter measures you identified are things like continued social distancing, significantly more testing, widespread contact tracing. You also said that if America does not do what it takes, and this is your quote, we would be in for a bad fall and a bad winter. So right now we are about 16 weeks away from Labor Day. That's about the same length of time since the virus was first detected here in the U.S., do we have enough robust counter measures in place that we don't have to worry about a bad fall in the winter?
DR. FAUCI : Right now the projection as you heard from Admiral with regarding to testing and others elements that would be needed to respond. The projection is that by the time we get to the end of summer, and early fall and we'll have that in place. That is the projection--
WARREN : We don't have it in place now but we are projecting that we'll have it in place. And let me just ask the other side of this. If we don't do better on testing on contact tracing and on social distancing, will deaths from Coronavirus necessarily increase?
DR. FAUCI : Of course, if you don't do an adequate response, we'll have the deleterious consequences of more infections and more deaths. That's the reason why, you quoted me Senator quite correctly. Everything you said and I will standby that. If we do not respond in an adequate way when the fall comes, given that it is without a doubt, that there will be infections that will be in the community and we run the risk of having a resurgence. I would hope by that point in time in the fall that we have more than enough to respond but if we don't, there will be problem.
WARREN : I appreciate your hope and I wish we can tell the American people that the Federal Government has this pandemic under control. But, we can't. In fact, you said that the virus is not under control in the U.S. We have not yet taken the measures necessary to prevent a second wave of deaths. We all know that the people are going to much infected are going to be seniors, essential workers, the people who are out on the front lines. The President needs to stop pretending that if he just ignores bad news it will go away. It won't. The time for magical thinking is over here. President Trump must acknowledge that the Federal response has been sufficient and that more people are dying as a result. We are running out of time to save lives and we need to act now. So, thank you Dr. Fauci for all you are doing. I appreciate it but the urgency of the moment is not here. Thank you.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE : Thank you, Senator Warren. Senator Roberts.
SEN. PAT ROBERTS, (R-KS) : Thank you very much Mr. Chairman and thanks to all the witnesses. You are like the Fab Four. I guess it was the Fab Five back in a day. You are shining the light of truth in the darkness at individual - lights for sure. Thank you Mr. Chairman for emphasizing that we to be bipartisan as approach we're going to get anywhere and that obviously in the eyes of the-- I'm happy to say that we have a very great relationship with the Governor - who happens to be a Democrat obviously I'm a Republican. And her emergency management is spot on, Dr. Lee Morgan is doing enough jobs that are a rest of this morning I talked to Lee, situation in Kansas is not very good, I'm reading here Kansas receives 7,000 new COVID - with food processing facilities.
ROBERTS : That's a stage goats coming into Dodges, are supposed to getting out of Dodge. Dodge City is my home town. We are the hot spot in regards to and it's mainly because of two packing plants we have five that's up a 26 percent of the cattle market. At any rate Kansas is going through a tough time at. - We shouldn't be worried about the safety of the food but the food supply chain. I think nationwide is under a great deal of stress. We see that in theory, we see that in poultry, we see that in park there. You can I think pigs in opposite the livestock industry. It is only produced with part of agriculture has a stepped up so is the President declaring that these are packing plants are a national asset with progress Dodge City when we first started out ahead five - that's between four and six, five it is not 50 million as we hope to receive and it has been said by having one of the witnesses. The reason I'm really harping on all of the problems we're having in agriculture on top of the tactics the relationship with China is such that even at first breakthrough with regards to trade to China seems to be on hold now. And that's another price depression and this is going on five or six years where our prices have been below the poultry production. In resolve our consumers are really figuring out that food doesn't come from a grocery store. And I'm very worried that the harm to good value chain is very real not to mention the financial situation. There are farmers, ranchers and growers all stages. Now having said all that I want to ask. Admiral Giroir you spoken about the importance of having diversity in kinds of tests that are available, the five packing plants we have in campus if we could get a rapid test and we can get it as we - hope we ask for because of the hot spots that are developing not only in Kansas but also doing great harm to the food value chain that would be absolutely wonderful? Would you speak to that sir?
ADMIRAL BRETT GIROIR, MD, ASSISTANT SECRETARY FOR HEALTH DEPARTMENT OF HHS : Yes, thank you Senator both Doctor Redfield and I have been very actively involved in getting strategies for the industry particularly in Kansas. We are supplying very heavily the public health labs with rapid diagnostics as well as urging them to areas like that. The one trade off however is that the rapid the "Rapid point of care diagnostics" is very slow. So each machine can only do four per hour and that's very, very slow. So it's a mix of testing that you need at these kinds of situations on sort of the high throughput tests that are available at a major lab in our Quest Lab right there in Kansas as well as a mix of the rapid testing and that's what we're supplying in order to provide a comprehensive holistic solution. And I believe CDCs on the ground as well and Kansas supporting that.
ROBERTS : I appreciate that if you only do it for an hour that's not a rapid test made which a rapid slow test. I'm not quite sure how you define that term? I for one think that it is we reopen and by the way Governor Kelly started the opening process first of this month and this May 18 and then we go to June and then the hope is we hope not. But we do have contingency plans that if that doesn't work as an aptly described by. Dr Fauci I think we'll be up right. But this is going to be a tough go. I have to tell you that in terms of agriculture we're not in good shape. I appreciate everybody's - and the job that you were doing. I will stand beside you when you're taking the booze and behind you when you're taking ops.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE : Thank you Senator Roberts. Senator Kaine.
SEN. TIM KAINE, (D-VA) : Thank you Mr. Chair to the committee leadership and witnesses for calling this important hearing. The last time Dr Fauci and Hahn were before us was March 3. I have a slide that I want to put up that shows what's happened in America since then. The chart which is here compares the experience of United States and South Korea on three dates. On January 21 both nations experienced their first case of COVID-19 at that time the unemployment rates in both countries were essentially identical. On March 3 when the witnesses were last year South Korea had experienced 28 COVID-19 deaths and the U. S. has experienced 9. Again the economies of both nations as measured by the unemployment rates were nearly identical but now the story changes. As of yesterday more than 81,000 Americans have died and the U. S. economy has experienced job losses not seen since the Great Depression. Meanwhile the economy of South Korea has not changed dramatically at all.
KAINE : And the death toll is now at 256. South Korea is smaller than the United States one sixth of our population but even if you bought up the death toll to reflect the difference the per capita death toll in the U. S. is more than 45 times the rate in South Korea. And health care carnage here is causing a near depression while South Korea has protected its economy by managing correctly. I could have done this chart with other nations the U. S. has the 7th highest per capita death rate in the world. Our death rate is off the charts higher than that in India, Australia, New Zealand, Japan and Mexico. It's nearly three times the death rate in Germany, twice as high as Canada's rate. The question is why? If we want to open up our economy and schools we have to learn the lessons of nations that have managed as well. Here are some things that don't explain the difference. Our hospitals are as good as or better than those in South Korea. Our health care provider's heroes are as good as or better than those in South Korea. Our research capacity is as good as or better than in South Korea and we have more resources than South Korea. Our GDP is 12 times South Korea's and our per capita income is 50 percent higher. So to Dr Fauci, the death roll in the United States - the death rate in the United States especially when compared with other nations is unacceptable isn't it?
DR. FAUCI : Sorry sir. Yes, of course. I mean our death rate at that height is something that in any matter of form in my mind is unacceptable.
KAINE : And Dr. Fauci, the experience of other nation's shows that the U. S. death rate is not only unacceptable but it is unnecessary isn't that correct?
DR. FAUCI : I don't know if we could say that Senator.
KAINE : But would you say that the U.S. has to do better?
DR. FAUCI : Of course you always have to do better. I mean as a musician--
KAINE : And the experience of South Korea shows how our nation manages the health care crisis has a huge impact also it's an on its economic condition is not the case.
DR. FAUCI : That is the case sir. I understand where you're going with this but I have to tell you there is a big difference between South Korea and the United States in terms of the outbreak.
KAINE : And let get to that. I want to get to factors that do explain the differences since we know it's not resources are our health providers. First is testing, South Korea began aggressive testing much earlier than the U. S. now in the 5th month of the pandemic we've surpassed South Korea in per capita testing but in the critical month of March, South Korea was testing its population at a rate of 40 times the testing in the U. S. Admiral Giroir, Dr Giroir has set out the standard for us when we get to September he says the United States needs to do 40 to 50 million tests a month to be safe and that equates to about 1.3 million to 1.7 million tests a day. Yesterday we did 395,000 tests. We've got a long way to go. A second factor is contract tracing. South Korea embraced a rigorous contact tracing program right from the beginning the United States still has not engaged in a national contract tracing program isn't it right? - That to Dr. Fauci or Dr. Redfield?
DR. FAUCI : So I think that question would best be directed to the
CDC. DR. REDFIELD : When the outbreak started sir we have an aggressive contact tracing program but unfortunately as cases rose it went beyond the capacity and then we want to mitigation. So we lost the containment and it is clearly not--
KAINE : And that was key to the economy as well because South Korea did testing, contact tracing, protect, isolate the sick and then they didn't have to shut down which helped their economy. Social distancing is a third factor we talked about it but finally last one health care system. Would you agree with me that it helps keep people safer either from serious conditions or death from COVID-19 if they have access to health care?
DR. FAUCI : Yes of course.
KAINE : Of course, that's the case. In South Korea in 97 percent of the population have health insurance. In the United States before COVID-19 millions didn't have it and lacked access to health care. The massive job losses in the last months threatened to take health insurance away from millions more. And President Trump is doing all he can to dismantle the Affordable Care Act which would take health insurance away from tens of millions more. Let's learn the lessons from those who are doing this right. Thank you Mr. Chair I yield back.
GIROIR : Can I make a clarification please Mr. Chairman. This is Brett Giroir. I just wanted to clarify that I did project that we will have the ability to perform 40 to 50 million tests per month in that time frame. But I said if needed that, that at that time I am not making a proclamation. All we have to really understand what where the epidemic is? What the community spread is before we can estimate the number of tests that are needed? I was simply stating the fact that our combination of testing capabilities will be at that level even boring new input from the
NIH. UNIDENTIFIED MALE : Thank you very much Senator Kaine. Senator Murskowski.
SEN. LISA MURSKOWSKI, (R-ALASKA) : Thank you Mr. Chairman and gentlemen thank you for being here this morning virtually but also for all you have been doing for these many, many months. Alaska's doing okay, right now from a numbers perspective and quite honestly we want to keep it that way because we know we have exceptionally vulnerable populations. We know we have a geography that is challenging. We know that we have facilities that are very limited. Last hearing we had an opportunity to hear from Doctor Collins and he shared where they are with the Red X and also spoke to Red X Up which was very interesting about what we can be doing in rural areas but focusing on hot spots. And as I reminded him we don't want to be a hot spot in Alaska. So every effort that we make to keep the virus out of Alaska is our lives that are saved. I educated him on the community of Cordova that is just getting ready to open it - it's a Copper River Salmon Fishery in two days and was able to share that they had had one worker tested positive as he was coming in from the lower 48 to come to work. The good news on that is that all the protocols that we had put in place seem to be working. The quarantine, the isolation is not only for that individual but for others that he had come in contact was secured. So I want to recognize the assistance that we have received from the administration Doctor Eastman is in the state at this moment the Chief Medical Officer for the Department of Homeland Security going out to rural communities to really better understand our vulnerabilities. Go to some of our fishing communities to again understand how we can successfully prosecute fisheries when you have to bring workers in from the outside? We thank you for the assistance with regards to additional testing capacity. I've been in contact with our Chief Medical Officer of the state this morning and the Mayor of Cordova. His better understanding again do we have the test that we need? What do we need on the ground? And one of the things that I would like to have clarified in and this is probably to you Doctors because you are being so helpful in kind of shining a light on what we need to be doing in these rural areas? But so much of the focus has been on hot spots and responding to the hot spot. But how do you keep those rural, remote and small communities from becoming the hot spots in the first place? Are we doing enough? And right now the strategy has been we just lock it off. The travel restrictions that are in place are apparently working but they're also devastating our economy whether it's tourism or weather is our resource industries or whether it's the potential for our fisheries. So Admiral if you might speak to that aspect of it and then I have a very important question as it relates to contact tracing that I'd like to direct to either Admiral Giroir or Dr. Redfield.
GIROIR : Thank you Senator. And as you know you have an outstanding state health officer Doctor.
MURSKOWSKI : We do.
GIROIR : I've had the privilege of working with her and you have a very good protocol in trying to keep Alaska safe by isolation over a period of time when you come in. As you know we also work with the state to meet your very challenging testing requirements because you can't really - you know send labs out a thousand miles away so we put out real customize mixed point of care and also the safety of machines. I think we sent 9 or 10 new to Alaska and about 50,000 tests which are about four times then you've done to date collectively in order to provide that support. So again I do think there's a comprehensive strategy that you do have. But again the mitigation it to the degree that you can given the circumstances, the face mask, the hand washing the hygiene.
GIROIR : We understand fully the challenges particularly in the fishing environment in the remote but these entire have to come together the testing, the tracing, the mitigation, and the hygiene factors to try to keep your community safe. And we really understand culturally that many of your communities all were almost annihilated in the 1918 influenza pandemic. So and that memory is still very sharp and very hurtful to many of the citizens. So we want to do our best to assure them that we are giving them all the protection we can.
MURSKOWSKI : So Admiral, let me turn to Dr. Redfield because this relates to contact tracing. I think that this is very, very key part of how we move forward into getting people back to work getting people back to school? Right now we have about a hundred people that are involved in contact tracing in Alaska that's clearly not sufficient. There's been talk about a national strategy but I think we recognize that we have teams in place whether it's American or whether it's Peace Corps or whether it's our public health corps. What more do we need to be doing to make sure that once you've been tested positive you know then what happens after that? Who else needs to be brought into this? And I'm not convinced that we're focusing enough on that aspect of how we move to re opening if we haven't done the contact tracing?
DR. REDFIELD : Thank you very much Senator. I want to just reemphasize what you said. I think contact tracing capabilities is critical. It's going to be the difference from succeeding and containing this outbreak from once again in a wide scale community transmission or not. Our positions as you know to deploy and redeployed the number CDC over 500 CDC individuals. We have another about 650 that you're trying to put into our - but most importantly we're trying to work with your health department with the resources that we've been able to give because of the - the mantles. Also as you mentioned with these other agencies with Lab Corp, I mean with AmeriCorps with the Census Bureau to work together and have the state developed their contact tracing capacity. Some states have reactivated state work some states have reactivated National Guard while they begin to do this. But I agree with you and I said it's going to be a significant effort to build the contact tracing capacity that we need in this nation. It will be state by state but it's going to need to be augmented probably in your state from what you just said that 5 to 10 folds and we're there to work with the states to help them push that needs to get in place before September.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE : Here we need to move.
MURSKOWSKI : Thank you.
UNIDENTIFIED MALE : Thank you Senator Murskowski. I don't want to commit any Senator off but we have eight more Senators who have 5 minute rounds and its 12:30 so I'd like to request that the Senators and the witnesses' just same questions and try to stay within five minutes would be appreciated. Senator Hassan.
SEN. MAGGIE HASSAN, (D-NH) : Well, thank you Mr. Chair. Thank you and Ranking Member for having this hearing. Thank you to our witnesses today and please pass our thanks along to all of the hard working women and men in your agencies who I know have been working virtually around the clock to try to improve our response and keep Americans safe. And Mr. Chair I hope you and all the witnesses are healthy and safe today as is everybody on your team. I wanted to start by echoing comments my colleagues have made about needing leadership from the CDC and our public health experts on how we are going to use facts and evidence as guidance so that our schools and our day cares and our businesses have the information they need to create safe and sustainable plans to re open? And of course that means too that our testing capacity not only has to be enough but it has to be flexible enough to meet our needs. The key distinction between South Korea and the United States is not how many tests per capita over a certain amount of time we've done. But the fact that at the answer to this pandemic South Korea was much more able to do a lot more tests per capita then we work and then follow that with all the other measures you've talked about so that we continue to need to identify the need and then build our capacity towards the need not the other way around. I wanted to start with the question to you Dr. Fauci. First of all thank you for your work and your expertise. I wanted to start-

Caleb : Ohh !
A.J. : Mommy , Mommy !

Marissa : It s gon na be all right , sweetie . Everything s gon na be ok .
Krystal : Caleb ? Can you hear me ? What happened ?
J.R. : I m just saying you re in college . Ok ? Damon is a high school dropout . You work part - time at Chandler Enterprises . He works part - time busing tables .
Colby : I used to bus tables , too , J.R. , and I probably still would if I did nt have the money to do whatever I wanted .
J.R. : Sure . You re a Chandler . You have advantages that most do nt . But with those advantages comes responsibility , big things to live up to , much bigger than just some guy who might think your money is part of the attraction .
Colby : No . No , Damon is not with me because of my money . J.R. , he works his ass off so he can pay for our dates .
J.R. : That s sweet , really , but you can do better .
Colby : Damon is not some random guy , J.R. He s Tad s son , which actually almost makes you two brothers .
J.R. : I ve got enough extra relatives to be worrying about . I ll give you Tad in Damon s life is the best thing that Damon could have going for him right now . But Damon in your life ? Do nt limit yourself .
Tad : Since when do you care about Colby s money ?
Damon : J.R. made it pretty clear I am not quality enough to hang out with his sister .
Tad : Oh , has he ? Well , I m just gon na have to have that little conversation with J.R.
Damon : No , do nt , do nt , do nt . It s cool .
Tad : No , it s not . You know , J.R. -- I do nt know . Sometimes he lets his last name get the better part of him .
Damon : Well , I get it , you know ? He loves Colby . He just wants what s best for her .
Tad : Who says that s not you ? Huh ? Nobody . Not in my book , and it should nt be in yours either . Hey , man , look at everything you ve accomplished since you ve hit Pine Valley . It s a lot . I m not gon na stand by and let anybody run down Damon Martin in front of me , and you should nt either . Deal ?
Damon : All I have to do is just figure out what I want , and then I m just gon na go for it .
Bianca : So the murder charges were dropped ? You re cleared ?
Ryan : Yeah . That s what they tell me .
Bianca : Well , I m sorry that David was desperate enough to kill himself , but at least the letters that he left prove it was a suicide . Case closed .
Ryan : Yeah . Case closed , all nice and neat and tidy . The only problem is there is nt a chance in hell that David actually killed himself .
Greenlee : I m sorry , David .
Kendall : I ve heard of taking your work home , but bringing your home to work ?
Greenlee : I m just storing in here until I find a place to live . I ve had more than enough of the club , so --
Kendall : Are you sure you do nt want to stay at Wildwind ? Right . Ok . That s a bad idea -- too many memories . When I walked out here , I heard you were saying you were sorry . For what ?
Greenlee : Just sorry for everything that s happened .
Kendall : Is that one of David s letters ?
Greenlee : Yeah .
Kendall : You know , some people do nt believe that they re real , that David really wanted to die .
Greenlee : Then you have to help me convince them they are .
Asher : I m glad you guys are here . I was just gon na call the police .
Krystal : Uh , look , help us get him to the sofa .
Caleb : I m fine .
Krystal : No , you re not fine . Now , come on . Careful .
Caleb : Whoa .
Krystal : Over to the sofa . Asher , did you see what happened ?
Asher : I think someone tried to rob him . As soon as I showed up , the guy got scared off .
Krystal : Here . Sit down . What about you ? Did you see who hit you ?
Caleb : Nope . I did nt see anything .
Marissa : You see ? Caleb s gon na be fine .
Caleb : A.J. , it takes more than a bump on the head to keep me down . Right , buddy ?
A.J. : What if that bad man s still here ?
Marissa : Oh , no , no , no . I m sure he s long gone , sweetie . Come on . Let s go upstairs , ok ?
Krystal : Ohh . You are gon na have a nasty bump .
Caleb : I m ok .
Krystal : No , you re not ok .
Asher : You should go to the hospital . It could be a concussion .
Krystal : At least we have to call the police .
Caleb : No . No . No police .
Krystal : You have been attacked in your own home .
Asher : If you re sure Mr. Cooney s fine , I think I m just gon na head off .
Caleb : You do that . It s Cortlandt , kid . Cortlandt .
Asher : Yeah . Right .
Bianca : David died from an overdose of a drug he had access to . He left letters to people he loved .
Ryan : Except he was definitely not suicidal that night .
Bianca : I thought you do nt remember what happened .
Ryan : I remember that he was very angry , and he was not hopeless . Definitely not giving up on anything -- not Greenlee , and not life .
Bianca : Well , maybe he changed after you left .
Ryan : It just does nt fit , Bianca .
Bianca : At least he ca nt hurt anyone anymore .
Ryan : Yeah . Yeah .
Bianca : You are not gon na give this up , are you ?
Ryan : What do you think ?
Kendall : You found the drug that killed David in Ryan s jacket pocket . I found a list of searches on Ryan s phone for death by digitalis . And now all of a sudden , suicide notes ?
Greenlee : So ?
Kendall : So it does nt make any sense .
Greenlee : None of this has made any sense . It has nt made any sense since I ran off that road . But I read the letter that David wrote to me . He was so sad , this man who had so much potential , who loved with such fierce passion , but he had so many demons .
Kendall : Yeah . Ok . I understand all of that , but I m just trying to be logical here .
Greenlee : I ca nt explain every detail , but I understand David s state of mind . He wanted to be feared , but I lived with him . He wanted happiness , but he could never have it for very long . He wanted a love and to be loved , but he did nt know how . Our marriage was his last chance , and when he realized that was nt gon na work --
Kendall : He blackmailed you . He did nt give up .
Greenlee : Until now . He d already lost so much . He lost his father , Leo , Leora , Babe , all his wives left him . The only thing he ever had in his life was medicine , and then he lost his license . I was leaving him . I guess it just -- it was too much .
Kendall : He wrote that ?
Greenlee : He left letters for me , Marissa , and Amanda -- people he wanted to remember him fondly . I hate the thought of it , even after the blackmail , to imagine him in so much pain , pain that I helped cause .
Kendall : Well , if that s true , then Ryan s off the hook .
Greenlee : These letters were a final loving act from a man who was never very good at showing it when he was alive .
Kendall : Never thought I d say this , but poor David . Ok , uh , I better get to Liza s office and sign my plea deal . Somehow Tad convinced her to go easy on me .
Greenlee : I owe you for destroying those papers .
Kendall : Well , maybe you can run interference with my husband when I try to explain to him that I got arrested for helping you and Ryan .
Greenlee : I promise I ll make it up to you .
Kendall : I just want this whole thing to be over , so I can get back to my life with Zach .
Asher : Is J.R. here ?
Colby : Oh , I am great , Asher . Thank you . How are you ?
Asher : Oh . Sorry .
Colby : I just do nt get ignored too often .
Asher : I m sure you do nt . I just wanted to run something by your brother
J.R. : Did I call you here ?
Asher : No . But I have something I thought you might be interested in .
J.R. : What s this ?
Asher : Some research you were looking for .
J.R. : Where did you get this ?
Asher : I m good with computers .
Krystal : I m sorry . You ve got to go to the hospital .
Caleb : No . I m gon na be fine .
Krystal : How you doing , A.J. ?
Marissa : It might take more than a cookie , but we ll be ok . Wo nt we ? Yeah . Seeing a doctor is nt such a terrible idea .
Krystal : I know . That s what I said , but he does nt want to go to the doctor .
Marissa : He s so stubborn .
Krystal : I know . He does nt want to call the police . I do nt know .
Marissa : I do nt know . Hey , you know what , though ? Caleb will be just fine . Want to watch , like , a super cool movie ? You want to watch one of your videos ? Yeah ? Ok . You do nt have to worry . I promise .
Krystal : Where are you going ?
Caleb : To get some air .
Colby : So you re doing research for J.R. ?
J.R. : He s just helping me with a project that I m working on .
Colby : But I thought I was a part of the team .
J.R. : You are , and you re doing great . It just happens to be on a need - to - know basis .
Colby : Well , if I m gon na be spokesperson of the company , should nt I know everything that s going on ?
J.R. : All right , Colby , how about you take Damon out for a nice steak dinner , hmm ?
Colby : Are you paying me to go away ?
J.R. : Is nt that what big brothers are supposed to do , spoil their little sisters ?
Colby : I have plenty of my own money .
J.R. : Come on . A free meal is a free meal .
Colby : Asher , would you like to go get Damon with me ?
Asher : Why not ?
Colby : Ooh .
J.R. : Asher ? Good job .
Asher : Thanks , boss . Anytime .
Liza : All right , Kendall , I m gon na make this brief . You cop to misdemeanor theft , and I will drop the obstruction and the tampering evidence charges . You ll get time served , you ll have a hefty fine , and you will have 250 hours of community service to begin immediately .
Kendall : 250 hours ? No , I ca nt do that . I m supposed to meet Zach in New York .
Liza : Yeah , well , maybe you should ve thought of that before you broke into my car .
Kendall : You re making this personal .
Liza : Am I ? Listen , I can certainly put back in the obstruction --
Lawyer : My client is very happy with the deal .
Kendall : No , no , I m not !
Liza : Kendall , if you would rather spend your time in jail , trust me , that can be arranged .
Kendall : I have somewhere I need to be .
Liza : Yes , you do . You have to be at Memorial Park at 6 : 30 a.m. , and I would wear something shiny .
Ryan : What ? Did you find something , something to fill in the blanks the night that David was killed ?
Tad : What are you talking about ? Did nt the police just do that ?
Ryan : The suicide ?
Tad : It works for me .
Ryan : You do nt think that s just too neat ?
Tad : Listen , I talked to Jesse . The police investigation was very thorough .
Ryan : Except I did nt hire Jesse . I hired you , Tad .
Tad : I have nt found anything the police did nt .
Ryan : You do nt want to find anything . You do nt want to because I know if you dig too deep , you think that you re gon na find something that s gon na hang me . That s what you think .
Tad : Maybe . Or maybe I think the guy did us a favor and , you know --
Ryan : You know what , Tad ? You have known David longer than you ve known me . Have you ever known him to give up on anything ? His life -- come on .
Tad : I stopped trying to second - guess what that son of a bitch was capable of years ago . What amazes me is you have nt . Ryan , he s dead , gone , no more , cold , morte , and he s still pressing your buttons . You re free . You re in the clear . It s time to let it go .
Ryan : You gon na keep working for me or not ?
Greenlee s voice : What is it ? What kind of stone ? Come on .
Ryan s voice : You know , diamonds , they ve been done so many times , you know ? I just -- I do nt know . It s a moonstone .
Greenlee s voice : It s perfect .
Ryan s voice : You re perfect . [ Kiss ]
Kendall : You expect me to pick up trash with a stick when I m supposed to be somewhere with my husband ?
Liza : You stole evidence from a D.A. s car , and then you destroyed it , not to mention my brand - new briefcase ? You re lucky I m feeling generous .
Kendall : You re loving this , are nt you ?
Liza : No , actually , I m not . I have a lot more important things to do than to coddle you .
Kendall : Liza , David killed himself . Ok ? There was nt even a murder . So what I took does nt even matter anymore . Why not just drop the charges altogether ?
Liza : Wow . I really do love the whole law according to Kendall , but this is the real world , and you re getting off easy .
Kendall : Would you do something , please ?
Lawyer : It s a very fair deal .
Kendall : Fine .
Liza : Mm - hmm . You know what , Kendall ? Why do nt you just not look at this as a punishment ? Think about it as spending hundreds of hours beautifying this town that you love , a community that s forgiven you again and again and again . Now if you ll excuse me , I have other things to do . Would you please keep an eye on her ? And , Kendall , as a matter of fact , I am enjoying this just a little .
Lawyer : You re very lucky , Mrs. Slater .
Kendall : Do nt expect me to thank you .
Bianca : The meeting s over ? What happened ?
Kendall : Oh . Well , I m not going to prison .
Bianca : That s great !
Kendall : Yeah , it s good . It s great . Let s have a party . Want to have a party ? Let s invite my divorce attorney . That ll be fun .
Ryan : Hey .
Greenlee : What are you doing here ?
Ryan : I have an appointment .
Greenlee : Are you ok ? What kind of appointment ?
Ryan : Oh , yeah . No , it s with Dr. Frankel .
Greenlee : But why ? Ryan , it s over . David took his own life .
Ryan : Because I have questions about that night . I still have questions .
Greenlee : Well , you know all you need to know . You did nt kill him . There s no reason for you to be hypnotized again .
Ryan : Why are you so against me trying to find out what happened that night ?
Greenlee : Because I want all of us to forget about that night . I do nt want to spend every minute thinking about David s death anymore . I do nt want it to haunt us forever .
Ryan : I m doing this for me , ok ? I lost some time , and I really want to know what happened .
Greenlee : Because you do nt think David killed himself .
Ryan : No , I do nt . The man that I was trading punches with was not ready to die . He certainly was nt about to take a swig of digitalis .
Greenlee : I m his wife . I cared about him . I ve accepted it . Why ca nt you ? You could spend the rest of your life looking for answers . I get that . I m looking for answers , too -- about how this happened , about how I let it happen . I ll always have questions . But those questions are nt gon na bring him back , and neither will the answers . So we have to just live . We have to keep moving forward and look at what s right in front of us .
Colby : Ha ha !
Damon : What are you doing here ?
Colby : Taking you out to eat after your shift .
Damon : Ok . I could use a burger .
Colby : No , no , no , no . I was thinking more like lobster .
Damon : I do nt need lobster .
Colby : Nobody needs lobster , but J.R. is paying . Hmm ? Hmm ?
Damon : I have a lot of studying to do . I do nt know .
Asher : Come on , D. Free bibs . What s better than wearing a picture of what you re eating ?
Colby : Yes , yes . And dinner for three by the water -- come on . You re gon na love it . Ok . I ll be right back .
Asher : Not every day a free lobster dinner shows up , huh ?
Damon : You know how I feel about Colby paying for everything .
Asher : You heard her . It s on big brother , man . I say we order some steaks , too . Maybe they can draw us , like , a cow on our bib or something . Dude , you ve been working your ass off all day . You deserve to go out . You re crazy to turn it down .
Damon : Hey , look , not long ago , I would ve jumped at that , but I m not that guy anymore .
Krystal : That poor kid , walking in here to find Caleb like that .
Marissa : I know . As if A.J. has nt been through enough already . He still has nightmares about J.R. being in the hospital , and I m not sure that he s even processed David s death , and the divorce .
Krystal : Well , we have to make sure that he knows that he is safe and he s loved .
Marissa : Yeah , so he does nt try to run away again or start another fight at school .
Krystal : Honey , we re doing the best we can .
Marissa : I know . It s just sometimes I feel like no matter how hard I try to protect him --
Krystal : I know -- the world intrudes .
Marissa : I just want to keep him safe .
Krystal : Well , that s one thing you and J.R. agree on .
Marissa : Yeah . I m just not sure that it s his top priority .
Caleb : Boy , oh , boy , is this town getting dangerous . Your doorbell rings , you open the door , you look down , there s a package for you . Bam -- somebody knocks you over the head .
J.R. : Someone attacked you .
Caleb : You think ? At first , I thought maybe it was a robbery . And then I look around and I realized that the only thing that s missing is a letter , a personal letter between me and Scott regarding my Chandler investment , a letter that would nt mean anything to anybody -- except you .
J.R. : Are you accusing me of something ? Because I ve been here all day .
Caleb : I did nt think you d stoop this low .
J.R. : I did nt attack you . I m a businessman . I m not a thug .
Caleb : You re a Chandler . I m very glad we had this discussion .
Asher : I get it . You do nt want to feel like you re being bought . But J.R. is drowning in cash . We re doing him a favor taking a few bills off his hands .
Damon : Maybe I would rather have his respect . He already thinks I m not good enough for Colby . At least if I pay my own way , he ca nt accuse me of just wanting her for her money .
Asher : Dude , you re way over - thinking this . Come on . I mean , respect is great , but if someone offers you something you want ? You better grab it , man .
Bianca : At least you do nt have to tell Zach in a prison visiting room .
Kendall : Yeah , that s true . I do nt know how this conversation is gon na go . It s gon na be hard enough . I ve made Zach so many promises and pretty much broken every single one . I do nt even know where to start .
Bianca : Maybe you should tell him to sit down .
Kendall : We re supposed to be on a romantic yacht right now , Binks , having three wonderful weeks alone , away from everybody , before we come back to Pine Valley for good -- and he was doing that for me , by the way . And what do I do ? How do I thank him ? I get criminal charges . Why did nt I just listen to him ?
Bianca : Because Ryan and Greenlee needed you .
Kendall : Right . I ll focus on that as I scrape gum off the park benches . Oh -- oh , yeah . Ok . So if you think it s so funny , why do nt you break it to Zach ?
Bianca : Oh . No . Nice try .
Ryan : Look , what I want is I want you to get on with your life . That s what I want . And I want you to stop blaming yourself for David s death .
Greenlee : But you wo nt ? How s Emma ?
Ryan : She s fine .
Greenlee : Hmm . When was the last time you spent the day with her ?
Ryan : She s been with Annie a lot lately , so --
Greenlee : Because you keep trying to relive the night that David died .
Ryan : Murder , suicide , death -- not the kind of things I want to talk about in front of my daughter .
Greenlee : Well , how s Spike ?
Ryan : I know what you re doing , Greenlee .
Greenlee : I m trying to make a point . You have amazing kids . You just got so close to spending the rest of your life in prison , but now you have your life . You have your children . Instead , you re looking for answers that you may or may not ever get .
Ryan : I m just gon na have to take what I can get , that s all .
Greenlee : Please , Ryan . David s life is over . It s not easy , but I m trying to find a way to deal with it . And if you do nt let this go , you re gon na lose yourself , too .
A.J. : I want my mommy .
Marissa : Oh , come here , sweetie . It s ok . Everything s gon na be all right .
Krystal : Yeah , nothing like some hugs and kisses to scare all the clouds away . Hey . Did you get some fresh air ?
Caleb : Yeah .
Krystal : Did you find anything out ?
Caleb : Mm - hmm . Hey . A.J. , how you doing , buddy ? I promise that nothing like that is ever gon na happen again . Ok ?
Marissa : See ? It s gon na be ok .
Damon : So you re totally cool with this whole free - ride concept ?
Asher : Yeah , pretty much .
Damon : Is that some rich kid thing you picked up in boarding school ?
Asher : I did go to school with filthy - rich kids , and I watched them with their filthy - rich families . And you know what ? They took it all for granted . Not just the money , but , you know , their parents , their brothers and sisters . So I figured whatever s offered , I m taking it . And if I can help myself to a little extra , score .
Damon : Were you the only kid there with no parents ?
Asher : I learned how to get along just fine .
Damon : That s how I was with my mom and Paul . But since Tad s adopted me , it s like I get that it s kind of cool to have people bug you about where you are and when you re gon na be home .
Asher : Not everyone gets a new - and - improved dad popping out of the middle of nowhere .
Colby : Do you remember your dad ?
Asher : Nope .
Colby : You do nt have , like , a picture of him or anything ?
Asher : I got to get this . What s up , boss ?
J.R. : Do nt call me boss . And you get your ass over here right now .
Kendall : Call me when you get this . I love you .
Bianca : No Zach ?
Kendall : Maybe he does nt want to talk to me .
Bianca : Oh , he loves you . Ok ? He ll understand .
Kendall : Yeah , but at some point -- I mean , what if I ve gone too far ? What if it s just too much ?
Bianca : He s pretty aware you re the kind of woman who steals a briefcase every now and then .
Bianca : Fusion . I will . It s your husband .
Ryan : Hey , this is Ryan Lavery . Um , I d like to cancel my appointment with Dr. Frankel , please .
Marissa : A.J. , why do nt you go push Miranda on the swing ?
Greenlee : Hey . How are you ?
Marissa : I have a different answer for that every five minutes .
Greenlee : I know what you mean .
Marissa : David s father killed himself . Did you know that ? Now David . What kind of a legacy is that ?
Greenlee : They were both unhappy men who saw no way out . But the pain and tragedy ends with you . David s gone , but you re still here . A.J. is still here . You re gon na live a happy life . You re gon na live the life that David always wanted you to live .
Marissa : You got a letter , too ? David wrote wonderful things , kind , loving words . I mean , on that piece of paper , he was the father that I ve always wanted him to be . But yet he almost never showed that side of himself . I mean , if he had , maybe he would still be alive .
Greenlee : Hey . Hey . You ca nt blame yourself for this .
Marissa : But I pushed him away . I mean , in the end , he tried to connect with me , but I would nt return his phone calls . I erased his last message . In his own way , he was trying to be a father to me , but I rejected him .
Greenlee : None of this is your fault , Marissa .
Marissa : But that letter -- I mean , if I had known that man , things could ve just been so different . And now that chance is gone --
Greenlee : Listen , David wrote that letter , because he wanted you to know how much he loved you , not to make you feel guilty . Do you understand that ? He wanted you to know that he loved you , father to daughter . You did nothing wrong . None of this was your fault . None of it .
Marissa : I should go . I promised that I d get the kids some ice cream . I m really sorry for just dumping all this grief on you .
Greenlee : Do nt be . I really think David wrote that letter to give you peace .
Marissa : Yeah , well , hopefully one of us will get it .
Krystal : You know , the cops go after criminals for a living , Caleb .
Caleb : I do nt need the cops for this .
Krystal : Right . You do nt need the cops , you do nt need a doctor , and I ll bet you re the kind of guy who does nt stop and ask for directions either .
Caleb : Huh . I made you a promise that I would nt let your daughter get in the middle of this war between me and Junior .
Krystal : You think J.R. hit you ?
Caleb : No . No , he does nt have the guts . He hired somebody .
Krystal : You re sure ?
Caleb : Oh , yeah . I m sure .
J.R. : I did nt tell you to attack Caleb Cortlandt .
Asher : I did nt plan to . I was just sort of in the moment .
J.R. : That is exactly the kind of stupidity that will land you in jail , Asher .
Asher : I got you the deal sheet , did nt I ?
J.R. : What is your deal ?
Asher : Me ? I m just a good employee .
J.R. : Most of my employees do nt go hitting people .
Asher : Yeah , well , maybe you re hiring the wrong people .
J.R. : What do you want ?
Asher : I just want to be useful .
J.R. : From now on , do nt do anything that I do nt tell you to do . Got it ?
Asher : Got it .
J.R. : This meeting s over . You can go .
Asher : Oh . Hey , boss ? The old man went down hard . You would ve liked it .
J.R. : Hey , Lenny ? I ve got a job for you . Find out everything you can on a kid named Asher Pike -- if that s even his real name .
Damon : Ok , I will let you take me and Asher out on one condition .
Colby : What s that ?
Damon : You let me take you someplace with four stars really soon .
Colby : Ok . Ok . Deal .
Damon : One more thing .
Colby : Am I gon na like it ?
Damon : No . I have to cut out early tonight . I m pulling a late shift here , but I will make it up to you soon . I promise .
Colby : [ Sighs ] Ok . But is there anything else that I should know ?
Damon : Yes . Next time , just us . Asher is cool , but I want to spend every penny of my money on you . [ Kiss ]
Singer : In this whole world all I want is you
Kendall : If you could come for just one day . Really ? Ok . How about today ? I know it s soon , but I can not wait to see you . Ok . Well , it s so beautiful outside . Why do nt we meet at the park , at our favorite spot ? What time works for you ? Ok . Great . I ll see you then . Love you .
Bianca : That smile says it went well .
Kendall : I told Zach everything , and he was upset , but he --
Bianca : Not exactly surprised ?
Kendall : No . Not really . But he s coming . He s on his way , and we are actually gon na talk finally in person . Everything has to be ok .
Ryan : Just the person that I wanted to see .
Madison : Is everything ok ?
Ryan : Everything is better than ok . I m gon na start living my life , starting right now .
Tad : Beautiful day .
Greenlee : It is .
Tad : So it s almost official -- David s suicide .
Greenlee : Yeah .
Tad : Hmm . Last time you saw him , did he seem despondent to you ?
Greenlee : You know David . He was always really good at keeping his emotions under his hat .
Tad : True enough . True enough . I mean , you know , in the couple days leading up to the party , did he ever do or say anything to suggest to you that he was suicidal ?
Greenlee : Ryan hired you , did nt he ?
Tad : Yeah .
Greenlee : Even though the police are closing the case ?
Tad : He wants the truth .
Greenlee : Even if it hurts him .
Tad : You know Ryan . It puts you in a tough place . Anything you want to talk about ?
Greenlee : Ryan is so busy saving everyone else that he does nt give a damn about himself .
Tad : Well , he s a good man . He s a man with a lot of people who care about him , want to help him . You know , I -- I did nt mean to eavesdrop , but I was standing over there just a minute ago , and I saw you with Marissa . I was impressed . It really looked like you took her pain to heart .
Greenlee : David s letter was supposed to give her comfort and make her feel better . Instead , she feels guilty like she s part of the reason that he took his own life .
Tad : And that s not the way it was supposed to work , was it ? David did nt write the letters . You did .
### Summary:

Asher admits everything to J.R. saying that he was just trying to be a good employee but J.R. makes it clear to Asher he never wanted him to hurt Caleb . J.R. decides to call an investigator to find out about Asher s background because he begins to wonder why Asher is so eager to get close to his family . Damon feels uncomfortable when Colby invites him to dinner with money that J.R. gave her because he wants to prove to J.R. that he is nt with Colby because of her money .

<s>### Instruction:
You are a helpful, respectful and honest assistant. Your task is to summarize the following dialogue. Your answer should be based on the provided dialogue only.
### Dialogue:
Adam : I need to let this place , this life go .
Phyllis : Deal me in .
Billy : Victor s stepping back into C.E.O. Resign from newman . Come and work for us here at jabot .
Summer : Jack just put you and billy in charge .
Kyle : Mm , and he left it up to us to decide about victoria .
Kyle : Mm , this one looks pretty good .
Lola : It s all right .
Kyle : Which means you do nt love it . Neither do I. How many houses have we looked at this morning ? 15 , 20 ? And none of them are right . Maybe we ve just wasting our time .
Lola : Are you saying that you want to stay here ?
Kyle : I m saying I want us to have what we deserve . We ve worked for it , we ve earned it , and I m not gon na settle for anything less .
Lola : Oh , okay , I see . So we re clearly not talking about houses anymore . We re talking about jabot .
Victoria : [ Sighs ]
Billy : So , how many hours did you sleep last night ?
Victoria : I do nt know . Two , maybe ?
Billy : I did nt want to bring this up in front of the kids , but you ca nt let your father s decision torture you , vick .
Victoria : What s keeping me up is nt my father s decision to toss me aside as C.E.O. I should have seen that coming . I just keep imagining a future without my dad and his precious legacy .
Billy : Any chance that future involves coming to work at jabot with me ?
Mariah : Hello .
Theo : Oh ! Mariah ! Thanks for meeting me .
Mariah : I think this is the earliest in the morning I ve ever seen you . I assume that you re usually sleeping in because you ve been out the night before partying , so ... this must be serious .
Theo : Yes . I ve decided to leave power communications .
Phyllis : Better luck next time , guys . Well , that was an impressive performance , spider .
Adam : Well , the cards were running my way .
Phyllis : Do nt be modest . I saw a least a dozen times you had nothing , and you went all in .
Adam : It is cheating too look at other players cards , phyllis .
Phyllis : Oh . Cheating ? Cheating . That s an interesting choice of words from a guy who s called himself spider . Seems like that name would belong to a guy who drives a motorcycle and has tattoos all over his body , wears leather ...
Adam : You finished ?
Phyllis : No . I could talk about the name spider all day . But we have more important things to discuss .
Adam : Look . [ Groans ] I am a little tired , so ... maybe some other time .
Phyllis : No . I did nt come all this way to get dismissed by someone who needs his sleep .
Adam : What do you want ?
Phyllis : Answers . Last time we spoke , we believed that victor was dead . And now that he s risen from the dead , once again , what do you have planned ? I want in . Additional sponsorship
Mariah : So you quit ? How come ?
Theo : Power communications was nt a good fit for me .
Mariah : Mm , well , that s a recent development . I thought you were gon na help take the company to the next level .
Theo : Oh , and I would have , no doubt . But with my client list growing the way that it has and everything that I have going on with the grand phoenix and jabot , it just felt like I was spreading myself too thin .
Mariah : [ Chuckles ] God , you re a piece of work , theo .
Theo : What ?
Mariah : This little story you re trying to spin . Oh , come off of it . You are not leaving power because you want to . Devon fired you for trying to throw me under the bus . So why do nt we start again from the top , this time without the bull ?
Kyle : So , yesterday , the first thing billy does , after my dad promotes him , is to offer victoria a seat at the table . Never spoke to me about it . Hell , he barely even acknowledged I was in the room . He treated me like an errand boy . So you know what that says about my dad s great plan at making us partners ?
Lola : Well , I think --
Kyle : It says that billy has no intention of treating me as his equal . This is clearly a power grab . Billy wants to be C.E.O. With victoria by his side . It s as simple as that .
Lola : May I say something ?
Kyle : [ Sighs ] I m ranting , are nt I ?
Lola : You and billy need to sit down and figure out the boundaries of your new roles , which is exactly what jack wanted you both to do .
Kyle : The tricky thing is , any company would want victoria in a top job . She s a clear asset . [ Sighs ] If I try to push victoria out , it looks like I m putting my ego ahead of the company .
Lola : Are you ?
Kyle : No ! It s just one of those situations where I m damned if I do , damned if I donT.
Lola : I do nt believe that . Billy has shown his true colors . Use it to your advantage .
Billy : Jabot would soar if you came on board . And , I mean , the timing is perfect .
Victoria : It would be fun .
Billy : Fun ? Come on . It would be much more than fun . We would make a great team . We already do . So say yes .
Victoria : I ca nt , billy .
Billy : Why not ?
Victoria : Look , for one thing , I would be third or fourth in command at jabot , and after running a company as large as newman ...
Billy : It would be a step back . I understand that .
Victoria : Are you disappointed ?
Billy : A little bit .
Victoria : I m sorry .
Billy : No . Do nt be sorry . It was a nice fantasy , though . You and me , conquering the world .
Victoria : [ Sighs ] Well , I did consider it when you said , and it is very tempting . But I ve finally come to the decision that I need to stand my own ground . I have been victor newman s good and obedient daughter for long enough . Dad might think that he has the last word , but ... I m gon na show him that it s not over until I say it is .
Adam : Well , I m sorry , phyllis . Could have saved you the trip . I am not planning anything .
Phyllis : I find that hard to believe .
Adam : [ Sighs deeply ] I like living here . I get to make my own hours . I do nt have any responsibilities . I get 24-hour room service , and I m -- I m raking in plenty of cash .
Phyllis : This is chump change compared to what you could be making .
Adam : Well , it suits me just fine . Oh , and , best of all , in vegas , I m spider . I m just a guy who plays a decent hand of poker . I blend in here . I m anonymous .
Phyllis : I know it s very , very enticing to disappear . I ve done it a couple times myself .
Adam : Mm .
Phyllis : The problem is , you re not spider . You re adam newman .
Adam : I used to be .
Phyllis : It s who you are . You can not ignore who you really are . This is a break . This is a vacation before you go back to genoa city . It s what you want , deep down . I know it is . You ca nt ignore this . Pack your bags . We have unfinished business .
Adam : You are a wonder , phyllis . I mean , barging in here , like you have the right to tell me what I m supposed to do . [ Scoffs ] You know , it d almost be worth going back to genoa city just to see you in action every day . Almost .
Phyllis : Why are you resisting this ?
Adam : Because it is nt what i want . Despite all your efforts to convince me otherwise . Why is it so important to you ?
Phyllis : [ Sighs ]
Adam : What , do you miss me ?
Phyllis : And if I said yes ?
Adam : Well , half of me would probably believe it . The other half would be wondering what you intend to get out of this .
Phyllis : Revenge ! Revenge ! Payback ! We were a good team . Adam , you know we were a good team . We had victor and the rest of them running .
Adam : Until we didnT. And , need I remind you , there is a jail cell waiting for me in genoa city .
Phyllis : No . No . Listen to me . Listen up . Victor is never , ever going to make michael press charges . And that pharmacist who doctored the pills , she s been proven a serial liar . And no one is ever gon na know that you switched the medication . So you have no excuse
Adam : Okay , how about this one ? I have absolutely no desire to interact with you . Or anyone about anything that does nt involve a deck of cards .
Phyllis : All right . You asked for it . One round of five - card draw , and we will make the stakes very interesting this time .
Theo : I wanted to get to you before devon did , say goodbye on friendly terms .
Mariah : Mm - hmm .
Theo : I did nt lie , either . I meant everything I said to you .
Mariah : Except you conveniently left out the part where you were fired .
Theo : All right , devon overreacted . I was nt attacking you or undermining your position .
Mariah : [ Sighs ] You know what s funny , theo ? I used to be just like you . I lied as easily as I breathed . I used to pick fights when i knew I was wrong . And I was all about myself . But then , one day , I looked around , and that s all there was . Just me , alone , on an island . So you need to get a clue . Because you may be able to fool all of these groupies and sycophants who think you hung the moon . But the people who you really want to impress ... they see right through you .
Theo : Congrats . In all that hard - won wisdom . I m sure you ll put it to good use .
Mariah : You could , too , if you just got out of your own way .
Theo : Thank you , but I m doing just fine . I always find a way to win in the end .
Mariah : [ Scoffs ] Wow . If you think that this is what winning looks like ... I just feel sorry for you .
Lola : The way I see it , if billy tries to push you out , it ll eventually backfire on him .
Kyle : How do you figure ?
Lola : Well , jack takes a lot of pride in jabot being a family company , right ? He reached out to ashley to make the merger happen , and he was so excited for you and billy to run the company together . So if billy tries to undermine you , your dad s not going to be happy about it .
Kyle : So give billy enough rope , in other words .
Lola : If you do your work , focus on the bigger picture , and stay out of the company s politics , you ll come out smelling like a rose . A smart , very strong , handsome C.E.O. Kind of rose .
Kyle : Mm . Sounds so easy .
Lola : Well , it ll be easy or as hard as you want it to be , baby .
Summer : Hey . Got here as quick as I could . What s going on ?
Theo : Um ... I m out . No more power communications , no more lp .
Summer : How did that happen ?
Theo : Um , I attempted an end run around mariah and devon , and , well , let s just say he did nt appreciate it very much . Said something about how my talent was nt worth putting up with my ego .
Summer : Wow , you must have really pissed him off .
Theo : Well , I took a shot , and it did nt work . Well , life goes on .
Summer : So you re okay with this ?
Theo : Mm , with power and lp off my plate , the sky s the limit . I can push my other projects , set up meetings with major companies . What do I need with all this small - time crap ?
Summer : [ Scoffs ] You just do nt get it , do you ?
Theo : What ?
Summer : Devon is one of the good guys . If you ca nt work for him , you ca nt work for anybody . Get over yourself , theo .
Phyllis : If you win ... I will leave , no questions asked , and you get to be spider for the rest of your life .
Adam : And if by some miracle , you win ?
Phyllis : You drop the attitude , and you have a real conversation with me . I want answers . We have a bet .
Adam : We do , phyllis . [ Clears throat ] But I got to tell you , you are a little out of your league . I watched you play last night , and I could read all your tells , you know , when you had a good hand , when you were bluffing ...
Phyllis : Okay . Well , do you want to bet , or do you want to talk ?
Adam : [ Clears throat ]
Phyllis : All right .
Adam : I mean , not that you do nt have some skills . Why not -- instead of going to genoa city , why not move to vegas ?
Phyllis : No , thanks .
Adam : Do nt dismiss that idea . I could teach you a few tricks . We could live the high life here in vegas . We could take these yokels for everything they got . Does nt that sound like a better idea than going back and hanging around people that we can stand , and they hate us right back ?
Phyllis : No . I have a child in genoa city . So do you .
Adam : Mm .
Phyllis : Wow , you want to talk about tells ? There was one right there . You miss connor , do nt you ? I m sure he misses his daddy . Is nt that enough reason to go back to genoa city ? The young and the restless will continue .
Summer : Theo , you are smart enough to get people to do what you want without pushing their buttons or manipulating them .
Theo : You re making a lot of assumptions about me .
Summer : I m just trying to help you , okay ? Life is not just one big reality show or a social media feed .
Theo : [ Scoffs ] That s ironic , coming from someone who jumped at the chance to become an influencer , who loves to be the center of attention .
Summer : [ Scoffs ] Well , with everything that s been going on with my family , I ve taken a look at myself and started to figure out what i need and what I want , and i realized that I need to have higher standards .
Theo : And you re suggesting i do the same .
Summer : I ve seen the other side of you , theo . I know that there is a sweet , caring , sensitive guy underneath this party - boy façade that you put on . So why ca nt you let people see that side of you ?
Theo : Thanks for the insight . You know , I do nt know which i enjoyed more , the insults or the condescension .
Summer : You re taking this the wrong way .
Theo : No , I think I ve got a pretty good handle on it . I m not as evolved as you are , I do nt measure up to the new - and - improved you .
Summer : Theo , you re taking this the wrong way !
Theo : You know who you re starting to remind me of ? Kyle . That s not a compliment .
Adam : Nice try , phyllis .
Phyllis : Excuse me ?
Adam : Using connor to try to distract me , throw me off my game .
Phyllis : That s not what i was doing . I m just simply mentioning there s a little boy in genoa city that might miss his father .
Adam : Okay , well , connor is better off without me , and i have made peace with that . Now ... are you gon na bet , or are you gon na fold ?
Phyllis : You re bluffing .
Adam : It s gon na cost you everything under your chin to find out .
Phyllis : Okay . So this is it ?
Adam : I m afraid it is .
Phyllis : Call .
Adam : Mm . Thank you for stopping by , phyllis . Have a safe flight home . Full house .
Phyllis : [ Sighs ] Wow . Okay , I could have sworn you were bluffing .
Adam : [ Clears throat ] Okay . So , are we done here ?
Phyllis : Not quite . Four of a kind . That beats a full house . I win .
Adam : [ Sighs ] Did you cheat ?
Phyllis : Oh , come on , adam .
Adam : The odds against drawing four of a kind --
Phyllis : Are staggering .
Adam : Yeah .
Phyllis : Good thing I do nt care about odds . All right , so ... I win . You ... need to tell me everything . Every question I ask , you need to answer . We re gon na start with victor .
Victoria : You and I need to have a conversation .
Victor : You made quite a statement with the gift you left me .
Victoria : Yes , that was a gesture made in the heat of the moment .
Victor : Hell of a gesture . You think differently about it now , or what ?
Victoria : You re waiting for an apology , are nt you ?
Victor : Yes , I am .
Victoria : After what you did to me , pushing me out of the C.E.O. Position . And I had to learn about it from a reporter ...
Victor : That was very unfortunate , but what you just did ... the least I can say about it is childish and petty .
Victoria : And I assume that you are hoping that I m gon na apologize and gladly move into my old job as C.O.O. , Your loyal lieutenant . That s not -- that s not happening .
Victor : You and I were a hell of a team together , you know that .
Victoria : And you think you can just push the reset button and I m gon na fall in line ? I deserve better than that from you , dad .
Victor : Are you here to negotiate ?
Victoria : No . This is me telling you what i want . I m here to lay out my terms .
Victor : I m all ears .
Summer : Oh , hey , guys !
Lola : Hi .
Kyle : Hi , summer .
Summer : Hey . I m just headed to jabot . It s a big day today .
Kyle : Mm , wait up , and we ll go together . I m just dropping lola off .
Summer : Okay .
Lola : I will look at more real estate listings when the breakfast rush is over . We ll find something , I promise . And I know that you guys are swamped at jabot , and kyle is ready to jump right back into work and kick some serious butt .
Kyle : Mm .
Summer : Mm , is he now ?
Lola : [ Chuckles ] But , if you would nt mind , can you make sure that he takes a break every once in a while ?
Summer : I will try , if he ll listen .
Kyle : He ll listen .
Summer : Oh .
Lola : Okay , well , I better get back to work . Oh , um , babe , if you can wait a minute , I ll make you your favorite sandwich to go .
Kyle : Mmm .
Lola : Do you want want , too , summer ?
Summer : Oh , um , yeah , sure ! Thank you .
Lola : Perfect . I ll get to it .
Summer : Okay . Well , that was sweet . What lola said .
Kyle : She takes care of me .
Summer : Somebody has to . So , you re taking no prisoners at jabot , huh ? Somebody did a 180 since yesterday .
Kyle : Yeah , let s just say i figured a few things out .
Summer : You re in charge . I can feel it .
Kyle : Mm .
Summer : It s good . It suits you .
Kyle : Thanks . I do know what I want . I just do nt think it s going to be as easy a landing as lola does .
Phyllis : Why did victor let you go ?
Adam : You would have to ask him .
Phyllis : No , I m asking you . That s our bet . You promised you would answer every question I had of you , and you would tell the truth .
Adam : Uh , why did pops let me go ? Because ... I learned he faked his death on my own .
Phyllis : How did you do that ?
Adam : What different does it make ? I figured it out . So I paid him a visit , we talked , it got ugly , it got heated ... but , in the end , it is what we needed . We both needed .
Phyllis : What did you both need ?
Adam : Closure . I acknowledged and apologized for my behavior , and I hoped that he could forgive me someday .
Phyllis : That was it ?
Adam : [ Sighs ] Look , I am giving you the condensed version because I m absolutely exhausted , phyllis . But , yes , I told him that I was leaving genoa city for good , and he allowed me to go on my way .
Phyllis : Oh , wow . That was genius . Wow . You played on his sympathy .
Adam : [ Sighs ]
Phyllis : Mea culpa . And you knew he would let you go because he always does , and you set him up perfectly .
Adam : Set him for what , phyllis ?
Phyllis : Oh , do nt play stupid with me . I know exactly what you did . You played on his defenses . His defenses are lowered now , adam , and you know it . You are just waiting so you can swoop in and rip away newman enterprises and destroy it . And let me tell you something ... I support that . And I am here to help you in any way I can .
Adam : [ Scoffs ]
Victor : Okay , I m listening .
Victoria : You built this company . You have sustained it through so many challenges . You ve brought it back from the brink countless times . And I ve watched you , and I ve learned , and I have tried to emulate you as best as I can . You were my hero . You still are my hero .
Victor : I find that very hard to believe at the moment .
Victoria : But it s true . And you know what else is true ? Even heroes -- even the greatest men and women , even victor newman , come to a point in their life , in their career , when they have to take a step back , and they have to hand it over to the next generation .
Victor : I ve done that , in almost every respect with you .
Victoria : Yes , I know . You ve willingly given me everything that I want , except for the one thing that matters the most . That chair .
Victor : I m not ready to step down .
Victoria : But I am ready . I am ready to be the permanent C.E.O. And I have been for a long time . Dad , I have poured my heart and my soul into you and into this company . I went to jail to protect your plan . And my reward , my pat on the head was to be shunted aside , without any warning ? To ask to behave like the good and adoring daughter , like I always am . That ends now . You have made the wrong call for yourself and for the company . Your health should be your first priority . You re still suffering from a serious illness . And I know that you ve made peace with adam , but I think his betrayal has taken its toll on you . I see that . Mom sees that . Everyone sees that , except for you . And you do what you always do . When you feel like you re losing control of something , you cling on to the one thing that feels safe to you , the company .
Victor : Listen , if I wanted to be psychoanalyzed , I would call a shrink .
Victoria : I belong in that chair . I should lead newman into the future , and if you refuse to acknowledge that , then consider our relationship over .
Victor : I see .
Victoria : And , fair warning , dad . If I walk out of that door empty - handed , I am gon na focus all of my energy in starting my own business . It s not gon na be like nicholas at dark horse . I m not gon na steal your business from the shadows . I m telling you right here and now , I m gon na come after you with everything that I ve got . Because I am your daughter . I inherited your drive and your determination , and I might have even inherited a little bit of your ruthlessness . So , I promise you , you re gon na spend every minute of every day fighting me , and you re gon na lose . Those are my terms . Take it or leave it .
Summer : You know , what lola said was spot - on . Billy does not see you as a threat right now . So you got to go along with everything , slow play it all , until he makes a mistake , which he will because he always does .
Kyle : Well , now that I have two smart women giving me advice , how can I lose ?
Summer : Well , I got some more advice for ya . You got to live your life . Go find your dream home with lola . Do nt get so caught up in this company or the competition that you forget what really matters . I did , and I ve been paying for it ever since , and you do nt have to . Understand ?
Kyle : Yes , I do , and thank you . Hey , summer !
Summer : Mm - hmm .
Kyle : Your sandwich .
Adam : Nice scenario , phyllis , but I am out of the revenge business .
Phyllis : The hell you are .
Adam : [ Sighs deeply ] I told you . Again and again and again . I do nt care about my father s business . Okay ? Let it nourish him , let it smother him , I do nt care .
Phyllis : The smothering part is what I m interested in .
Adam : Sounds like your problem , not mine .
Phyllis : So do you mean to tell me that it does nt bother you at all that your father faked his death , put you through hell , gave a press conference and said , I m just kidding . None of that bothers you ? You do nt want payback ?
Adam : No , it sounds like you have never gotten over your anger . And you ve never gotten over what victor has done to you . It still hurts , and it still burns .
Phyllis : You do nt care at all .
Adam : He s not my problem anymore .
Phyllis : Well , this is interesting .
Victor : So this is it , then ? I either acquiesce and name you C.E.O. Of newman enterprises , or I lose you . My daughter . Perhaps forever .
Victoria : I do nt see it any other way , do you ?
Victor : It s a hell of a quandary ... [ Sighs ] Giving up running this company , my company ... ... or losing you .
Victoria : I did nt want it to come to this , but ... it has . And unless you can show me the respect that I deserve and the respect that I have earned ... you and I have nothing left to say to each other .
Victor : [ Sighs ] I see . You fight for what you believe in . You fight for what you want . You laid down your terms . And you do nt back up . You re my daughter . You re your father s daughter . And I m proud of you .
Victoria : But that s not why we re here , dad . You have nt answered my question .
Victor : This is yours .
Victoria : What ?
Victor : I accept your terms . This is yours .
Victoria : Do you mean this ?
Victor : With all my heart .
Victoria : Thank you . Thank you . Thank you so much for entrusting me with your legacy . This places means so much to me . It s a part of me , just like it s a part of you . And I promise you -- I promise you , it will continue to thrive , dad . I wo nt let you down I wo nt let you down , and I m always gon na come to you for advice . All the time .
Victor : I know you will . You are your father s daughter . You re tough .
Victoria : Yes .
Victor : And you come to me for advice any time you want to .
Victor : [ Sniffles ]
Victor : But I trust you . I love you .
Victoria : I love you .
Victor : And I now hand over the reins to this company ... to you .

### Dialogue:
Belle : It feels good to walk at night .
Philip : I love this park .
Belle : Especially at night . It just feels like such a magical place .
Philip : Mm - hmm .
Mimi : I thought that was you two . Hi .
Belle : Hey , Meems .
Philip : What up , Meems ?
Mimi : Sorry , guys . Girl talk .
Rex : All right .
Mimi : So how sweet was it of Philip to take you out tonight ?
Belle : He s just always been such a good friend . I do nt know how I would have gotten through the evening without him .
Philip : Rex , whatever is bugging you , you just keep it to yourself .
Rex : Look , you know what s bugging me . You re trying to take advantage of how sad Belle is right now . It s not the time to try and get her into bed , so back off .
Mimi : Look , let s just talk about something happy . How about Sami and Lucas ?
Belle : I just hope my sister really meant it when she said yes .
Mimi : Why would nt she ?
Belle : You know Sami . I mean , she seemed happy , but you never know with Sami .
Mimi : Oh , my gosh , so you think she lied to Lucas ?
Belle : It would nt be the first time . And if she did , I ca nt see Lucas ever forgiving her .
Sami : Good night , Lucas . I had a really nice evening .
Lucas : Wait a minute . You had a nice evening ? Did I miss something here , or did you ?
Sami : Excuse me ?
Lucas : Well , we just got engaged , Sami . You re treating me like I m bringing you home from a not - so - good first date . What s up ?
Sami : I kissed you good night . I do nt know what you re talking about .
Lucas : You be straight with me . Tell me what the hell is going on .
Sami : Everything you said and did tonight came straight from your heart , and I ca nt say the same about me . I m so sorry , but ... I may have accepted your proposal under false pretenses .
Abe : Oh , man . I just wish I knew that hope was safe out there .
Roman : I just wish to hell I knew why she went with Patrick Lockhart .
Abe : Well , I still say he took her hostage . And I ll bet you anything that he s working for whoever stuck us on this island replica of Salem .
Roman : Well , that s got to be Stefano DiMera , cause he s just too damn evil to be dead . And damn that bastard if Hope winds up a victim out there like Jack and Jennifer .
Abe : Hey , hey , look , look , look , look , look . Come on now . You know getting mad s not going to help us get off this island . So why do nt we get back to work putting that transmitter together ?
Roman : Let me ask you something . Did you believe Tony s story ?
Abe : Tony DiMera never did anything by accident . He intended to knock over that transmitter .
Roman : He s got to be up to his neck in this operation . That s why he wanted to stop us from communicating with the outside world .
Abe : Well , that s not going to stop us .
Hope : Help .
Marlena : Ahh ! Ahh ! Hope ! Hope !
Hope : You need to help them .
Doug : My God . Hope , are you all right ?
Hope : They ll die if we do nt help them .
Abe : Who ? Who may die ?
Hope : [ Mumbles ]
Marlena : Oh , my gosh .
Doug : Hope ! Sweetheart ! Hope !
Jennifer : [ Muttering ] Oh , this baby -- it ca nt come right now . It ca nt .
Patrick : Jennifer , just try not to move , okay ? I do nt want you going into labor . That s the worst thing for you and the baby .
Jennifer : Listen , I am not worried about me . I am worried about the baby , and you promised me that you would save this baby , remember ?
Patrick : I m going to save you both . That s what I promised to do .
Jennifer : Oh , God , Hope -- do you think she s gon na make it back ?
Patrick : Well , Hope s strong . She ll find a way to get us help .
Jennifer : And Jack -- he was so weak . I mean , what if he is too sick to even make it back to where we are ?
Patrick : Just keep still , okay ? Think of the baby .
Jennifer : I am . I am thinking of the baby . Because if I do nt make it through this , this baby is going to lose a mother and a father , and I can not let that happen . Do you understand me ?
Patrick : We re not losing anyone .
Marlena : Easy .
Doug : What s going on , Marlena ? Sweetheart , it s daddy . Can you hear me , Hope ?
Marlena : Doug , she s just fainted . Her vital signs are fine .
Abe : You know , if she found Jennifer and Jack or both , she and Patrick found their way through the force field at the security perimeter . But how ?
Roman : And how did Hope get back ?
Abe : You know , that force field almost killed her when she tried to escape before .
Roman : You know what ? Patrick must have known how to disarm that force field .
Abe : And if he showed Hope , she can get us out of here .
Patrick : In order for this to work , you re gon na have to jam the system by hitting the keys in an even and then an odd number sequence . Next , you re gon na have to throw the coin against the field . The metallic properties will sever the field for a short time . You got it ?
Hope : Yeah .
Patrick : Whatever you do , do nt leave this behind . If you do , you ll never get back through .
Doug : Well ? It s nothing , right ? I mean , she should be coming to by now , right ?
Marlena : I m not sure , Doug .
Doug : Well , is it serious ? Can you at least tell me that ?
Marlena : Well , it could be .
Doug : Oh , dear God .
Roman : What do you suppose Hope meant when she said you need to help them ?
Abe : And whose lives are at stake ? Patrick ? Jennifer ? Jack ? Who ?
Jennifer : Patrick , I ca nt . I ca nt lose Jack again . I ca nt .
Patrick : Shh . Look , it s okay .
Jennifer : He was so weak --
Patrick : And so were you . Look , you need to relax and try not to move , okay ? If Hope did find the others back in replica Salem , they re probably gon na wait until daybreak to come looking for us .
Jennifer : Daybreak ? What are you talking about ?
Patrick : There s no way they re gon na come here now at night . It s too dangerous .
Jennifer : What if Jack is in the middle of the jungle somewhere and he does nt make it , Patrick ?
Patrick : Jennifer , he knows how much you love him , and how much you need him . That s going to keep him going .
Jennifer : You re right . You re right , it is . He knows that he has to make it for me and Abby and our baby , and he s not gon na leave us . He wo nt .
Patrick : Jack s a very lucky man . He has so much to live for .
Jennifer : And he will . He will . He will fight , because he does not give up . Jack never gives up .
Patrick : Yeah . And in the meantime , we will be safe here until help comes , okay ? So I just want you to relax . That is the most important thing right now . [ Rocks crumbling ]
Jennifer : What was that ? What was that noise ?
Rex : Admit it , Philip . You want Belle .
Philip : I want her to be happy , yeah .
Rex : And you re the one that can make her happy ?
Philip : I never said that .
Rex : That s what you think .
Philip : Rex , what the hell is your problem ? And why am I the bad guy here when Shawn is the one who hurt her ?
Rex : Right , I m sure that really breaks your heart .
Philip : It s broken hers .
Rex : Philip , when are you going to admit that the woman you ve been secretly in love with this whole time is Belle Black ?
Mimi : Why-- why would Sami accept Lucas proposal if she did nt really mean it ?
Belle : Well , I think Sami said yes to Lucas in public in order to drive Kate crazy . You know , I just hope she does nt make a huge mistake . Lucas is a great guy , and he really loves Sami . And I think if she lets him slip through her fingers , she s going to regret it for the rest of her life . I mean , great guys , they just do nt come around that often .
Mimi : Belle , are you talking about your sister , or yourself ?
Lucas : You accepted my marriage proposal under false pretenses ?
Sami : Look , please just do nt yell .
Lucas : What the hell does that mean , Sami , huh ?
Sami : Maybe you could just sit down .
Lucas : I do nt want to sit down . Screw that ! I want you to be honest with me right now !
Sami : Okay , all right , the whole point is that I m trying to be honest with you .
Lucas : Yeah ? Let s have it . Now is a great time .
Sami : Okay . Look , when I was getting dressed and ready to go out with you tonight , I never had any intention of truthfully accepting your proposal .
Lucas : Oh .
Sami : I only got dressed and agreed to go out with you because I wanted to see Kate s reaction . I thought that if I said yes to your proposal , that it would kill her .
Belle : I was talking about my sister letting a great guy slip through her hands .
Mimi : Right . Belle , I think your mom would have called it projecting . You re worried about Sami blowing it with Lucas , but I think subconsciously you wo nt admit to yourself that you could be letting a great guy slip away , too .
Belle : If you re talking about Shawn , I ve tried everything .
Mimi : I m not talking about Shawn .
Belle : Then who ?
Mimi : Oh , I do nt know . Maybe , like , Philip .
Philip : You two okay ?
Belle : Yeah , we re fine . Why would nt we be ?
Rex : Just be careful . The park can be dangerous this time of night .
Mimi : Do nt worry about us . We can take care of ourselves . Come on .
Rex : If there were two girls that can take care of themselves , it would be those two .
Philip : I know . But it s hard not to be protective when you care about them so much , though .
Mimi : It s understandable that you have nt let go of Shawn yet -- I mean , not in your heart . But , Belle , you have to move on , and why not do it with someone as great as Philip Kiriakis ?
Belle : I am moving on with Philip , but as friends .
Mimi : Well , Rex is convinced that Philip has a major love thing for you .
Belle : Well , Rex is wrong .
Mimi : Philip is a totally hot guy . You re beautiful . You re around each other all the time . I mean , God , he s got to at least be attracted to you .
Belle : Why does everybody keep say-- look , he s not . I asked him to his face , which was hugely embarrassing , and still no one will listen to me . Philip is in love with someone else .
Mimi : Really ? Then where is she ?
Belle : She s ... somewhere .
Mimi : Somewhere ? What s the zip code on that again ?
Belle : Come on , Mimi .
Mimi : I ll bet that if you just happened to leave your door open one night by mistake on purpose -- yeah -- Philip would come pay you a visit .
Belle : No , he wo nt . I m sure he does nt feel that way about me . I mean , he s seriously head over heels for this other woman .
Rex : Admit it , Philip . The woman you ve been in love with this whole time is Belle .
Philip : Look , I m not going to admit anything to you . First of all , it s none of your business , and more importantly , it s just not true .
Rex : What are you looking at ?
Philip : I m just trying to keep an eye on Belle and Meems , and I ca nt see them from here .
Rex : Where d they go ?
Philip : I do nt know . I got kind of a bad feeling . Come on .
Man : Hey ! You two . Where you going ?
Mimi : Sorry , we re in a rush .
Belle : Yeah , we re late . Come on , Meems .
Man # 2 : Oh , come on , there s always time to make new friends . Here , have a beer .
Philip : Hey , what the hell s going on here ? What are you doing , man ? Why do nt you leave them alone ?
Mimi : Philip ! [ All shouting ]
Belle : Rex , stop !
Mimi : Stop !
Belle : Philip , what are you doing ?
Mimi : They were nt doing anything !
Mimi : Guys , stop it !
Belle : What are you doing ?
Mimi : Rex ! What the hell ? You guys !
Philip : You are going to apologize to these ladies !
Belle : Philip , they did nt even do anything !
Philip : Say you re sorry right now .
Man # 2 : Fine . Okay , I m sorry .
Philip : No , no , wait . Look at them and say you re sorry . Look at them .
Man # 2 : I m sorry .
Philip : There you go .
Rex : Your turn , jerk .
Man : I m sorry . We did nt mean -- we were just offering them a beer , man -- being friendly .
Philip : Get the hell out of here and do not come back .
Belle : What were you two thinking ?
Philip : We were j--
Mimi : You were being macho jerks . We were fine . And even if those guys had threatened us , which they had not , we can take care of ourselves , thank you very much .
Belle : Yes , we can . My God , I ca nt believe you guys would resort to violence . I mean , you made these poor guys say they were sorry to us for no reason , when you guys should be the ones saying you re sorry for being idiots .
Lucas : You actually thought that my Mom was gon na drop dead ?
Sami : Well , not literally . Okay , maybe literally .
Lucas : And this comes from a person who just lost both of her parents . They were both killed . Great .
Sami : Look , I do nt care what happens to Kate , but she does nt deserve to be happy , and she s never gon na let us be happy . I just want her out of my life forever .
Lucas : And that s why you wanted me to propose in front of everybody at the Penthouse Grill , right ?
Sami : I wanted a real proposal . And it was an awfully long time in coming , anyway . But , yeah , I wanted Kate to see it . I wanted her to fume and cry over losing her little boy , and then she d be a sad story .
Lucas : I can not believe you .
Sami : But , Lucas , you wanted me to be honest .
Lucas : Well , you re honest . Back to the old Sami , the old vengeful Sami . I do nt want to marry that person , all right ? I do nt even want to be in the same room as her !
Sami : Lucas , please --
Lucas : No , you know what ? Forget I proposed . Forget I said I love you , forget I said I cared . I never want to see you again as long as I live !
Sami : No , Lucas --
Lucas : As far as I m concerned , you can spend the rest of your life alone and miserable !
Roman : Damn it !
Abe : Well , obviously our captor wants us to know that life goes on in Salem .
Roman : Yeah , well , we got to this damn thing fixed so we can get the hell out of here before it s too late .
Abe : Yeah , before too many people move on with their lives .
Doug : What s happened to her , Marlena ? Have you any idea ? Any idea at all ? I can not lose my little girl .
Marlena : Doug , I do nt think this is life - threatening .
Doug : Oh , thank God .
Roman : Doc , how long do you think it will be before she comes to ?
Abe : We need to know what she saw out there . If she found Jack and Jennifer , if they re still alive .
Hope : Save them . Daddy .
Doug : Everything s going to be all right , sweetheart . I m daddy . I m here . I love you so much .
Abe : Hey , Hope , it s me . It s Abe .
Doug : Yeah .
Abe : Sweetheart , can you tell us what happened ? We need to know .
Roman : Yeah , Hope . What happened ? We need your help , so tell us , please .
Hope : I have to rescue Jennifer before the baby comes . I have to rescue Jennifer .
Jennifer : Patrick , tell me , what was that noise ?
Patrick : It s okay . It s nothing to worry about .
Jennifer : Oh , my gosh ! This whole ledge is crumbling . It s not gon na hold us , Patrick . Oh ! Oh , God ! Oh , Patrick !
Patrick : Jennifer ! Jennifer , what --
Jennifer : The baby s coming .
Patrick : You just have to relax , okay ?
Jennifer : No ! You have to deliver this baby . Oh , my gosh , it s coming right now , Patrick . Aah !
Sami : Lucas , do nt go !
Lucas : I should have never proposed to you .
Sami : Please do nt say that .
Lucas : I would nt marry you now . I would nt marry you if you were the last woman on earth .
Sami : Lucas , please , just listen to me . Please give me a chance to explain .
Lucas : You know what , Sami ? I do nt want to hear it . There s nothing you can say !
Sami : You are always criticizing me and telling me all my faults . Well , you know what ? You have faults , too . You have a very short fuse , and you never listen to me .
Lucas : I have a short fuse ? Do you have any idea how you re making me feel right now , how you re treating me ?
Sami : I m sorry , okay ? I just wanted a chance to explain to you what happened , okay ? Please , just come in and let me explain .
Sami : Okay , what I said was true , that I only went out with you because I wanted -- I wanted to make Kate pay for all the mean and nasty things that she has done to me .
Lucas : Yeah , that s real big of you , Sami .
Sami : You re right . You re right . It s small and petty and mean and vindictive -- the old scheming Sami .
Lucas : Yeah . Do I have to hear this ? Can I go now ?
Sami : No ! Please . You really hurt me with that half - asses proposal you made in my apartment earlier , when you told me about how horrible I am . And I thought you should have a little idea of how that made me feel .
Lucas : Good , I hope you re happy . You got your revenge , all right ? You played your little sick joke at my expense . Fine , you feeling good about yourself , huh ? Feeling like a big success ? To me you re nothing but a sadistic bitch , and I never want to see you again .
Sami : Please , Lucas , just let me finish ! Then came the moment when you actually proposed to me in the Penthouse Grill , and ... and you sang to me in front of everyone . You slipped the ring on finger , and everything changed for me in that moment . It was so sweet and romantic . And you sang to me from your heart . And I knew in that moment that your feelings for me were real . And so are mine . I realized that standing in front me was a man who loved me more than I could ever dream that a man would love me .
Sami : And I told myself , do nt be insane . Do nt ruin your one and only chance for true happiness . And in that split second , I realized that I had to do the right thing , that I had to answer your proposal from my heart . When I said that I loved you and I wanted to spend the rest of my life with you , I meant it . When I said yes , I ll marry you , Lucas , I meant every word . It was nt about Kate . It was about us as a couple . And I really hope you believe me . I hated myself for what I had planned to do tonight . But I love you , Lucas . I love you with my whole heart . And ... I just hope that you still want us to have a future together .
Mimi : Those guys were just trying to pick us up . That s all .
Belle : They were nt even muggers .
Mimi : We are nt helpless idiots . We could have taken care of ourselves .
Rex : Fine , fine . We over - reacted .
Belle : Yeah , you more than over - reacted . You physically attacked these two guys for no reason .
Philip : Look , we thought there was a reason . I m sorry , okay ?
Rex : Yeah . Me too .
Mimi : Rex , you have a cut on your hand . Let me clean it for you . Mm .
Belle : Ugh , you have a rip in your jacket .
Philip : Mm , I know .
Belle : Here , I ll sew it for you .
Philip : Okay . Ha ha . You know , if you , uh ... if you do nt mind .
Belle : No , I do nt mind . It s no big deal . Yeah . Let s see .
Philip : Sure you do nt mind ?
Belle : No , of course not .
Philip : You re the best .
Rex : I m still convinced that Belle is the mystery woman Philip s been hung up on this whole time .
Mimi : I was nt so sure , but ... now I think you could be right .
Rex : I know I am .
Mimi : Come on , let s go back to our place and get some ointment for your cut .
Rex : What , and leave those two alone ?
Mimi : What s the difference ? They re alone all the time . They re roommates , remember ?
Rex : But Belle is still hung up on Shawn , and Philip should nt push her .
Mimi : Philip s not pushing her . Does it look like he s doing that ? He s just around trying to be a friend .
Rex : Yeah , right .
Mimi : Fine . You think he wants to be more than friends , well , maybe so , but , you know , maybe that s a good thing . I think Philip could actually be the guy that Belle needs . Come on , let s get out of here . Um , we re going to go back to our place and get some stuff to put on Rex s wound here .
Belle : Okay .
Mimi : We ll see you later ?
Philip : See you guys .
Mimi : All right , bye .
Rex : See ya .
Belle : See ya .
Belle : You know what ? I think I have some better thread in there .
Philip : Okay .
Belle : Let me see .

Sami : You re leaving . I understand .
Lucas : You know , I m not going to say anything . I m not going to say how I feel about what you just said . I think I ll show you .
Sami : [ Sobbing ]
Sami : Lucas , I ca nt wait to marry you .
Lucas : I ca nt wait to marry you , either .
Sami : My ring is so beautiful .
Lucas : That s the best I could do .
Sami : Ha ha . I was thinking maybe I could look at it in the moonlight , if you ll turn the lights off .
Lucas : Sure . That s a good idea .
Sami : It s so beautiful .
Lucas : Not as beautiful as you are .
Mimi : I feel so lucky to have you in my life .
Rex : Always . What s wrong ?
Mimi : I just feel bad for Belle . I hate that she s alone tonight .

Mimi : Not as much as I want you right now .
Philip : Belle ...
Belle : I m right here , Philip . You were right . I did nt want to be alone tonight . I want to be with you -- tonight and every night .
Philip : Yeah .
Belle : Oh .
Philip : I have waited so long to tell you this .
Belle : What ? To tell me what ?
Philip : Belle , you are the woman that I am in love with .
Belle : Philip .

Philip : I ca nt take this anymore .
Mimi : Oh , I m so lucky .
Rex : You said that already .
Mimi : I know . I just -- I guess I feel a little guilty about ... having such a wonderful guy and being so happy when Belle is going through all this pain of losing Shawn .
Rex : Hey , why do nt you talk about us right now , huh ?
Mimi : I m sorry . I know it s not very romantic to talk about Belle and Shawn . It s just that I never want to lose you , babe .
Rex : You never will . I love you .
Mimi : I love you , too .
Philip : Whew .
Sami : Lucas , I never thought this could happen to me . I mean , I used to dream about it all the time , but every time I thought the dream would come true , it was shattered . Lucas , what if that happens with you ? I mean , what if you end up leaving me ?
Lucas : Sami , that is not going to happen , okay ? This is a lifetime commitment . Our marriage is going to last forever .
Lucas : Mm .
Doug : Tell me , Marlena , what is wrong ? Why d-- why does she keep passing out ?
Marlena : Doug , I think it s just exhaustion . I mean , the plane crash , swimming to shore , the electric fence , and then fighting her way through the jungle -- it s just been too much for her system .
Roman : When do you think she ll come to ?
Marlena : I m not sure . It could be soon . It could be a few hours . It could be all day , given what she s been through .
Abe : Then she ca nt lead us to Jennifer , Patrick , or Jack . We ca nt rescue them until Hope wakes up .
Doug : What if that s too late for Jennifer and her baby ?
Jennifer : [ Grunts ] Oh , gosh . [ Gasping ]
Patrick : Jennifer , take my hand . Hurry ! Before you -- okay .
Jennifer : Aah ! Aah !
Patrick : Jennifer -- hurry !
Roman : Is nt there something we can do ?
Marlena : Well , there is a drug , but it does nt come without a risk . She might not wake up at all .
Philip : I know something that s going to make you feel better .
Belle : What ?
Philip : This .
Jan : [ Thinks ] Oh , my God . This is even better than I hoped .
Jennifer : Patrick , there s a tarantula on your hand !
Patrick : Banana Spider .
Jennifer : Patrick , no !

### Dialogue:
JOHN DONVAN, HOST : Elmore Leonard has had the kind of writing career that writers dream of when they first start out. He writes crime, and he has turned a lifetime of novels, short stories and movie scripts that sold and got read and seen and that built a following - six decades worth of that, time enough for him to figure out what works on the page, which often turns out to be what works quite well on the screen, as well. The acclaimed TV series on FX, "Justified," is based on one of Leonard's short stories "Fire in the Hole." Seasons one and two captured attention and garnered awards for the show's gritty, yet likeable characters and their Kentucky drawl. Season three premiered this week.
JOHN DONVAN, HOST : If you have followed Elmore Leonard's works in television or in crime novels, give us a call. Our number is 1-800-989(ph). Our email address is [email protected]. And you can join our conversation at our website. Go to npr.org and click on TALK OF THE NATION. And any writers out there who want to talk to a writer's writer, here is your chance. Elmore Leonard joins us now from studios of member station WDET in Detroit. Welcome to the show, Elmore Leonard.
ELMORE LEONARD : Thank you.
JOHN DONVAN, HOST : So you have this series now, you and a group of colleagues, fellow executive producers. It is based, as I said, on your story "Fire in the Hole." It's doing fabulously well, critically acclaimed. And it's - the interesting thing is your title on the credits is executive producer. So how - what happens when a writer becomes an executive producer?
ELMORE LEONARD : Well, what happens to me is I feel I should take part in it. I feel I can't just sit along and watch the sequences and not do anything about it, that I should provide something, because I've - all my life, I've written for paychecks. So I'm doing the same thing now, although I don't get involved with the day-to-day work of the writing team, because there are about seven or eight in there. I've never written with anyone else before. So I just write my own book, which I've done now with "Raylan." So "Raylan" runs for a book length.
JOHN DONVAN, HOST : That's your new book.
ELMORE LEONARD : And in it - the new book that's coming out today or tomorrow. And it's - and in it are sequences that they can use or not use. But I don't want to know what they're doing, and so I don't want to interfere with their work. So that - I write these about Raylan and about the kind of characters that he is confronted with, and I'm happy about it. And they get to use what they want. But I can't - I just cannot see myself sitting and not working if I'm getting paid.
JOHN DONVAN, HOST : Our number is - what great work ethic. Our number is 1-800-989-8255, and our email address is [email protected]. I'm quite interested, Elmore, in the matter of watching your - a story that you conceived of live and grow beyond the covers of the book that you wrote that might have inspired the film. You wrote the book for - that became the film "Get Shorty." You wrote "Rum Punch," which became Quentin Tarantino's "Jackie Brown." It's happened a number of times. Your books have inspired stories. And now with this hit show on the FX channel, "Justified," I find it fascinating that the pilot is based very much on your short story "Fire in the Hole," but it then lives on for years and years afterward.
JOHN DONVAN, HOST : So I'd like to just listen to - a little bit of a spoiler alert for those who haven't seen the pilot, but it was two seasons back - the closing scene in which two characters, your main character, Raylan Givens, who's your hero and the main character of your new book "Raylan." Raylan Givens is in a shootout with a Boyd Crowder. And I just need to explain it, because we all know the obvious. Raylan wins the shootout. Let's listen to that.
WALTER GOGGINS : (as Boyd Crowder) What are you packing?
TIMOTHY OLYPHANT : (as Raylan Givens) You'll pay to find that out.
WALTER GOGGINS : (as Boyd Crowder) Oh, you got ice cold water run through your veins. Well, should we just do us a shot of Jim Beam, just for old time's sake?
AARON : (as Boyd Crowder) Oh, you did it, huh? You really did. You did it.
TIMOTHY OLYPHANT : (as Raylan Givens) I'm sorry. You called it.
JOHN DONVAN, HOST : Well, what happens there is Raylan and Boyd are still talking, and on television Boyd lives. In your short story, that same shootout happens and then Raylan is asked, is he dead? And you say - and Raylan answers, well, he is now. In the short story, he dies and so...
ELMORE LEONARD : In the first - and in the shooting he died. Then they said, wait a minute, this guy is so good, let's - we got to keep him alive because I was disappointed when Boyd Crowder died. I said, he's too good to lose, and they all felt the same way. So they worked a little different, re-shot the scene, I guess.
JOHN DONVAN, HOST : And I guess my basic question is, are you good with - are you OK with that to see this guy live?
ELMORE LEONARD : That's the best thing that's happened to this show...
ELMORE LEONARD : ...because Boyd's great. He's the perfect counterpart for Raylan.
JOHN DONVAN, HOST : We have a lot of your fans who are lined up on our phone lines waiting to talk with you. Let's bring in Aaron from Fort Dodge, Iowa. Aaron, you're on TALK OF THE NATION.
AARON : Hello.
ELMORE LEONARD : Hi there.
AARON : Yeah. No, I just wanted to say, first off, thanks to Elmore Leonard. I recently have gotten into the genre of Westerns. And in my attempt to get into the genre, I kind of dipped into short stories, and I ran across a couple of collections of his short stories, and I really gravitated to him. I kind of liked him quite a bit, and I just - I guess my question, just to get to the point then is could you tell us - could Mr. Leonard tell us about his early years writing those short stories, the kind of pulp fiction-y Western tales. And, you know, with that, you know, the days of living hand to mouth, and kind of learning to be a writer for, you know, literally to put food on the table and a roof over the head. Or was this, you know, what was that evolution as a writer like?
JOHN DONVAN, HOST : How'd you do it?
ELMORE LEONARD : Well, I decided to write Westerns because there was a terrific market for Westerns in the '50s. There were a lot of pulp magazines, like Dime Western and 10 Story Western that were still being published. The better ones paid two cents a word. And I thought I like Westerns. I didn't read them, but I loved Western movies, so I decided I'm going to get in on this. So I was working at an ad agency, but I'd get up in the morning at 5 o'clock and I'd write - it took me a couple of months to get up. But I would write for two hours and I would write two pages.
ELMORE LEONARD : At that time, I could write a page an hour - not anymore. But - so I would - at that time, during the '50s, I wrote 30 short stories and sold them and five books, and a couple were made in the movies. So I was on my way. But a lot of them, though, were just for two cents a word, and - but at least in the '50s, that was - that's $100. So at least it was worthwhile in the '50s.
JOHN DONVAN, HOST : Aaron, thanks for your call. I want to bring in Sirley(ph) from Cedarburg, Wisconsin. Sirley, you're on TALK OF THE NATION.
SIRLEY : Oh, Elmore, you are my very favorite. And they suggested that I mention two particularly hilarious polluter sketches from your Florida series. The polluter who - two elderly couples staying in a motel, he leaves the motel gets eaten by an alligator, or - yeah, alligator. And the other one is the polluter who got a dump truck full of trash dumped into his convertible.
ELMORE LEONARD : Yeah, I remember them.
JOHN DONVAN, HOST : You're punishing polluters.
ELMORE LEONARD : So I did - no, they - well, they weren't. I don't think they were called polluters in the story. No, but an - you got to put an alligator in the story if you're setting it in Florida. And this guy who was somebody - what was paid to get him out of the way, and they - I think what they did was just dump a lot of cement into his convertible, and he was still in it.
SIRLEY : And then the trek out into the wilderness with that renegade, I think he was one-eyed, lived in a hovel, and they called him the king, or the emperor, or the prince.
ELMORE LEONARD : I don't remember that.
JOHN DONVAN, HOST : All right. Sirley, thanks for your call. And you're inspiring me to go back to these Florida stories.
SIRLEY : (Unintelligible).
JOHN DONVAN, HOST : Thanks for your call. I want to talk to you, very briefly, about your famous 10 rules for writing. I'm not sure how far back those were published, but...
ELMORE LEONARD : 2000. Year of 2000.
JOHN DONVAN, HOST : 2000. They've lived on forever. You have 10 very practical rules, literally for - I think, you intend them fully for people who want to write and who want to have success, and they are...
ELMORE LEONARD : I didn't do them very seriously, the one I gave them at a writer's conference. And that afternoon, I wrote the 10 rules and I recited them at the end of my talk. And then I came off the stage and someone is - and I was holding this sheet of paper with the 10 rules written in longhand. And someone came out to me and said, could I have those? I said, yeah and I gave them to him.
JOHN DONVAN, HOST : Well, they're taken very seriously and it may not be back.
ELMORE LEONARD : Yeah. Probably I...
JOHN DONVAN, HOST : Never own a book with the weather.
ELMORE LEONARD : Well, I was - at that time, I thought it was just sort of funny, you know? But now, I realize they should be taken seriously. At least I took them seriously so...
JOHN DONVAN, HOST : Never use the word suddenly, or all hell broke loose.
ELMORE LEONARD : Ever.
JOHN DONVAN, HOST : What's wrong with suddenly?
ELMORE LEONARD : Well, it's...
JOHN DONVAN, HOST : It should say itself.
ELMORE LEONARD : You...
ELMORE LEONARD : Use - I don't know why, but you see bad writers using suddenly. Perhaps that's was the reason.
JOHN DONVAN, HOST : Let's bring in somebody, I think, might be an aspiring writer, Charles in St. Augustine, Florida. You're on TALK OF THE NATION.
CHARLES : Oh, thank you for taking my call. Mr. Leonard, I was wondering in your writing process, when you're writing something for the page or for the screen, what is the point that you usually begin from? And I'll take my answer off the air.
ELMORE LEONARD : Hmm. I don't - I'm not sure what you mean. When I begin to write, how do I start?
JOHN DONVAN, HOST : Well, I think he was intending to ask, do you have the idea - do you have the ending in mind when you sit down with the beginning, or do you start from the beginning and figure it out from there?
ELMORE LEONARD : No, I have no idea where it's going to go. I don't want to know, because the idea is accumulated in the four months, five months, six months. Now, it's get - it takes me longer - of the writing process, you get more - you get better ideas while you're writing it, that ideas come to you, that scenes come to you that then if you were to sit down and begin to list scenes. So I don't - I started out that way years and years ago, but I only did about two books that I outlined.
ELMORE LEONARD : And now, I just started writing a book. I have characters in mind to open with. Now, I think that the first 100 pages you're introducing characters that are interested to you, the writer. See how they get along. See if there's - what the conflicts are. And then get them going in the second part - in the act two, and get the, you know, get some subplots going, and then get into a point where you have to finish and then think of the ending. And there are - normally there are other ways. There are more - there's more than one way to finish a book, more than one conclusion you can reach. And that's what - that's just the way you do it.
JOHN DONVAN, HOST : All right.
ELMORE LEONARD : You come to an end and you end it.
JOHN DONVAN, HOST : We are talking with Elmore Leonard. And you're listening to TALK OF THE NATION. I want to bring in Juan from Fort Myers, Florida. Juan, you're on TALK OF THE NATION.
JUAN : Yes, thank you. I think you've answered some of my questions, but I have another one. The - in writing, it's important to keep a sequence, or a storyline, you call... And but also, I think is just as important or maybe more important, is how you develop your story and your phrases. What - is there anything that you can tell us about developing and, you know, as part of the art of writing as how you, say, think. And like I know that you notice that some of the words that you said not to use, they're old words and that, kind of, you know, they're not stimulating. So how would you stimulate? What do you use and what do you recommend to stimulate the writing?
JOHN DONVAN, HOST : And also, Elmore, I want to point out that your writing is widely recognized as very stripped down. I mean, it's very sparse and direct.
ELMORE LEONARD : Yeah. Well, listen, you can use suddenly and all hell broke loose if someone says it. If someone is dumb enough to use those words in some way, fine, you know? It begins to identify the character. I just say, don't use it in your prose. What I do is always write from a character's point of view, and you begin - or normally, you begin with the main character's point of view, find out what is added to its are, and then maybe bring the woman in. But it's always from the character's point of view when - and then there - then they begin to talk with other characters. And it's the way they talk, the way the kind of person they are and the words they use, that you get to know the characters rather than the writer describing the person and say, well he talk - he spoke with - very undramatically.
JOHN DONVAN, HOST : And speaking of characters, Elmore, we have a question from an emailer who is asking, I think, the autobiographical question. He wants to know, do you smoke or drink as much as your characters do?
ELMORE LEONARD : No. Well, I quit drinking for 36, 37 years, but then I started drinking wine again about two years ago 'cause I'm getting old. I thought, let's - we got to liven things us a little bit, but the wine has not affected me at all. But smoke - I've been smoking for what - not 50. I've been smoking from - for 40 years. And I quit one time while I was writing. And the next 30 days, I wrote - I don't know – oh, 10 pages, something like that. Then I started smoking again, I wrote a hundred pages.
ELMORE LEONARD : So it's just, you know...
JOHN DONVAN, HOST : That's not one for the children out there.
ELMORE LEONARD : No. It was part of my routine. It was part of my routine. I write in longhand. And when I get to a point where I don't know what comes next, I would stop and light a cigarette, and it just became part of the habit of writing.
JOHN DONVAN, HOST : Well, Elmore Leonard is a crime novelist and executive producer, one of the executive producers of "Justified," the FX series that is now in it's third season. He joined us from member station WDET in Detroit. Elmore Leonard, thank you so much for the time.

Steve : No , nothing .
Bo : Hmm .
Steve : But I got to tell you something , man . I feel something . Something s there . I mean , I m drawn to her . That s got to be a good sign , right ?
Bo : That s a great thing . [ Door opens ] Hey .
Steve : There she is now .
Bo : Yeah , there she is . Maybe this case is nt so cold after all .
Austin : I understand .
Sami : No , no , you heard me right .
Austin : Yes , sir .
Sami : It s tomorrow . So , do you think you can get the flowers there on time ? No , we ll definitely pay for a rush order . I completely understand . Absolutely . We ll take care of everything . I need this to be perfect . I ve waited too long .
Austin : Look , I am sorry , Father Jansen , about the ridiculously short notice , but we really do appreciate you making room in your schedule to marry us now .
Sami : No , all of that sounds -- [ Knock on door ] Oh , Austin , do you mind getting the door for me ? I m still on with the florist .
Austin : Father , I have to run , but we ll see you at the church tomorrow . Yeah , we will be ready one way or another . Yes , absolutely . Okay , thank you . Thank you so much .
Sami : I realize that this is not my first wedding , but none of the others lasted for more than a day , so they do nt count .
Austin : Hey , how you doing , man ?
E.J. : Not too bad at all . Is this a bad time ? I can come back later .
Sami : Hi . No , of course it s not a bad time . Come on in . Come on in . We actually have some great news for you . We re getting married tomorrow .
E.J. : Tomorrow ?
Austin : Yeah .
Kate : No . No , please tell me that s not true .
Like sands through the hourglass , so are the Days of Our Lives .
Billie : What happened , Chelsea ? What s wrong ?
Chelsea : Well , just got my community service assignment , and they want me to work at the hospital as a freakin file clerk .
Billie : That s it ? That s the problem ? My God , I thought something bad happened .
Chelsea : Mom , that is bad . You do nt think that , that s bad ?
Billie : Oh , my --
Chelsea : The summer is almost over , and they want to lock me in a stuffy room all day to file papers . It s so unfair .
Billie : Oh , it is so fair . It is so fair . You listen to me . You should be down on your knees thanking God that you are not gon na be spending the entire summer or God knows how much longer in jail for accidentally taking your little brother s life .
Chelsea : Why , thank you for reminding me cause I do nt feel guilty enough about it .
Billie : Well , you know what ? Sometimes I do nt think you do . You are damn lucky to have just gotten community service , and if you think that I am gon na get you out of it somehow , you are sadly mistaken .
Chelsea : No , Mom , that s not what I m thinking . I just wanted , like , a postponement or something .
Billie : No .
Chelsea : God , this is so unfair ! Why could nt they just have waited until the fall or something ? I have nt even had time to let this idea sink into my head and already they want me to start today ?
Billie : Good . Good . The sooner the better . Then you can get it over with .. And you know what ? Something good just may come out of this , Chelsea .
Chelsea : Oh , like what ? I can wear orthopedic shoes and be bored all day ?
Billie : No , Chelsea , that is not what I meant . I was thinking that if you did a really good job and impressed your supervisor , this could turn into a permanent position for you , A.K.A. a job .
Chelsea : No . No , you could not pay me enough to work in a hospital . They re depressing . I would rather rot in prison .
Billie : Do nt say that . That s not funny . And you know what ? That just may happen to you if you do nt get your butt down to that assignment today .
Chelsea : I ll see you later .
Billie : Where are you going ? Wha--
Chelsea : I m gon na go enjoy my last few hours of freedom .
Max : Look ... you re not getting what you want this time , okay ?
Stephanie : Do nt bet on it .
Max : Look , save yourself the effort because these plans are confidential ..
Stephanie : Okay , fine . Be that way . I know everything there is to know about that engine already anyway .
Max : That s what you think .
Stephanie : Oh , yeah ?
Max : Mm - hmm . Mm - hmm . You re gon na rip them again . You ripped them once already , okay ?
Kate : Oh , God .
Austin : Okay .
Sami : No , no , whatever .
Austin : Okay , now , Mom , take it easy , please ?
Kate : Take it easy ? Take it easy ? You ask me to come over here . You do nt tell me what it s about . And when I get here , I find out you re getting married . So , you just wanted to , what , see me miserable , is that it ?
Austin : No , no . I wanted to invite you in person , for you to know how much I want you to be there . But if -- look , I do nt expect your blessing . It would mean a lot for me for you to be there .
Kate : [ Sighs ] I ca nt believe this . I ca nt believe it .
Austin : But if you ca nt be civil to Sami and treat her with respect , then it s probably best you do nt come . So , what do you say ? Will you come to our wedding ?
Kate : Of course I am going to come to your wedding . You re my son , and I want to be there . And if you re going to persist in this lunacy , there s really nothing I can do about it , now , is there ?
Austin : See , comments like that -- that s exactly what I m talking about .. Come on .
Kate : Okay . Okay , if you want me there , I will be there , and I wo nt say a word .
Austin : Thank you .
Sami : Yeah , thanks , Mom . We re very glad that you re gon na be there .
Kate : Hmm . Could I say one thing ? Why are you moving the wedding up ? I mean , is there some kind of an emergency ?
Austin : No , no , no ! No , no . No emergency . I decided -- we decided it was time . Why wait ?
Kate : Why wait ? Because a wedding takes a lot of planning -- that s why you have to wait . I mean , you ca nt put it on overnight , Austin .
Sami : Actually , I think we ve done a pretty good job . Yeah , we ve got the catering all lined up , the flowers , the church .
Austin : Father Jansen . Now we just have 101 other things to do , including invitations .
Sami : Yeah , oh , speaking of which , E.J. , I hope you know , of course you re invited . We would love for you to be there .
E.J. : Thank you . I will be there . Now , you must let me know , is there anything I can do to help ?
Austin : Yeah , yeah , we would appreciate some flexibility on deadlines while we re on our honeymoon . I know how much you wanted us to focus on your account and make sure -- you know what I mean .
E.J. : Austin , we ve made very good progress recently . I m really not that concerned .
Austin : Great . Thank you .
Sami : Thanks , E.J.
E.J. : No , when I was asking if I could help , I was speaking slightly more immediately . Music for the reception -- do you already have somebody ?
Austin : Well , finding a decent band and DJ on pretty much zero notice is next to impossible .
Sami : Oh , wait , do nt tell me . Aside from being a world - famous race car driver and also being able to remodel homes , among the other things that you are incredibly good at , do nt tell me you re a musician , too .
Austin : Would that surprise you ?
Sami : No , not at all .
E.J. : Well , no , actually , I m not , but I do happen to know the lead singer of a band that s touring nearby . They re pretty good . Maybe I can get them to come by . Blue October -- maybe you ve heard of them .
Sami : Come on , you re not serious . Oh , my God ! I love them !
Austin : They re great . They re great .
E.J. : Well , I ll make sure they re there . The guy owes me a favor , so ...
Sami : Are you serious ? That is incredible . Thank you !
Austin : That s amazing . Honestly , I do nt even know what to say .
E.J. : You are welcome . Consider it my wedding gift to you .
Sami : You mean we do nt get presents ?
Austin : Samantha .
Sami : I m just kidding . Shut up . You know I m kidding . I m sorry . Thank you . I m just teasing you . Thank you so much .
Kate : Well , well , E.J. , you certainly know how to pull things together , do nt you ? I m very impressed .
E.J. : Good , because that somewhat paves the way for the real reason that I came around here . I ve had something on my mind , and I wanted to talk to the three of you about it ..
Hope : I m sorry . Sorry , I did nt mean to lose it like that . I just , um .... I ve been having a really hard time today .
Patrick : Hey , it s okay . Just tell me what s wrong . I mean , what , is something happening ? I mean , it s not the baby ?
Hope : No , no , the baby s fine . I just got off the phone with Frankie , and ... I asked him to go ahead and file for divorce .
Patrick : I did nt even know Bo had signed the papers .
Hope : He has nt . But I m going ahead with it anyway . I m ending my marriage , and I do nt need his consent or his cooperation .
Patrick : What made you finally decide ? I still thought you were nt sure what you wanted to do .
Hope : Patrick , I think I knew . I just did nt want to admit it to myself . This marriage has been over for a while . I mean , we re never gon na get back what we had .
Patrick : Are you absolutely sure you want to do this ?
Hope : I have been back and forth , back and forth a million times on this .. And finally , I realized that maybe -- maybe somewhere in my heart , I can forgive Bo for lying about the death of our son , giving Chelsea the keys , all of it . But what I ca nt forgive is that he actually went so far as to steal the evidence to keep his daughter from being punished . You think that s gon na teach her a lesson , make her think twice before she does something reckless again ? Look , the bottom line is , there s no point in dragging this on any longer , I mean , especially now . I need to settle this , and it s time for me to move on with my life and start focusing on taking care of myself and this baby ... our baby .
Kayla : Would you look at the two of you , just hanging out here like old times ?
Bo : Well , we re not really hanging out . We just ran into each other .
Steve : Yeah .
Bo : You know , I m getting something to eat . I m gon na check on my chowder .
Kayla : No , no , I do nt want to interrupt the two of you if you were talking .
Bo : No , no , you re not interrupting .
Caroline : Bo , listen , I m sorry . There s a backup in the kitchen , so lunch will be delayed , but the batch of chowder s on its way . You hungry , Steve , Kayla ?
Kayla : No , no , I m fine .
Steve : Chowder sounds good to me .
Bo : It is .
Caroline : When this was the Brady Fish Market , you were always telling us we should open a restaurant , so we finally did . And chowder was your favorite , along with a glass of beer and a good game of darts .
Bo : Darts .
Caroline : You two should play darts again .
Kayla : You know , are you trying to start World War III ?
Caroline : What ?
Kayla : You and my brother had this sort of fierce rivalry going and , well , got a little too heated once in a while .
Steve : Really ?
Caroline : You used to play darts for hours .
Steve : Oh . Well , let me guess . I kicked his butt .
Bo : Yeah , in your dreams . As I recall , he owes me a rematch , does nt he ?
Steve : A rematch , eh ?
Kayla : Well , the last game , you sort of -- well , you beat Bo in a very close contest , and there were some questions about the winning point .
Bo : There was no question . He stepped over the line . Anyone could see that .
Steve : Wait , wait , wait . Are you accusing me of cheating ?
Bo : No , no . I m not saying you cheated on purpose . Cheater !
Steve : Cheater ? Would you listen ? He just called me a cheater .
Bo : You d do anything to win .
Steve : Okay , wait a minute here . I ll tell you what -- let s settle this right here , right now . Come on .
Bo : Fine by me .
Kayla : Oh , I do nt think that s a good idea .
Bo : I ll keep my eyes on you .
Steve : I ll keep my eye on the board .
Kate : Well , well , well , I have to say , you have my attention .
Austin : Is something wrong ?
E.J. : Not at all . No , I was thinking about the publicity shots that I did with Sami . And the idea of using my , for want of a better term , celebrity status as a way to market and sell your product line .
Kate : Well , I think it s going to be a very successful campaign , actually . The feedback from the focus groups has actually been positive .
E.J. : Good . But I think it could be better and we could make more money if we just thought a little bit bigger . Now , I know this is gon na involve a little bit more risk , and you re gon na have to trust me to be more than the proverbial pretty face .
Austin : Okay , all right , what are you talking about ?
E.J. : The three of us pooling our resources , going into business together as equal partners .
Stephanie : No , I was just kidding .
Max : Mm - hmm .
Stephanie : I really could nt care less about seeing those plans .
Max : Well , you sure put on a good show . Mm - hmm .
Chelsea : Hey . I m not interrupting anything , am I ?
Hope : I always thought Bo and I would be together forever . He is -- was .... no , always will be the love of my life . But you know what ? I think that I m at peace with the fact that it s the only decision I can make . I mean , this is really what is best for everyone , especially with this baby coming . I need to start planning for the future , do nt I ?
Patrick : A future that I hope will include me .
Hope : What ? Of course it will . Patrick , we have talked about this . You re the baby s father . Of course you re going to be involved . You re gon na be a very big part of this baby s life , you know that .
Patrick : And I m looking forward to that -- to being a dad , but , um ...
Hope : But what ?
Patrick : You know what ? Nothing . Nothing . This is not the right time .
Hope : What are you talking about ? Why is nt it the right time ?
Patrick : Never mind . It s not important . Actually , no , that s not true . It is important , but it can wait .
Hope : All right , well , if it s important , I do nt want it to wait .
Patrick : You know what ? Let s just forget I ever mentioned it , okay ?
Hope : No , Patrick , I do nt want you to have to protect me . You do nt need to . I want us to feel like we can talk about anything . We need to trust each other completely .
Patrick : I know .
Hope : I ve always been big on honesty . And this whole nightmare with Bo has convinced me even more that it s the only way , the only hope for any relationship -- not that I m saying we have a relation-- I mean , not that kind of relationship . I know that we do nt .
Patrick : Hope , that s what I wanted to tell you . I want a relationship . I want to be a part of your life , but not just as this baby s father . I want us to be together .
Kayla : Oh !
Steve : Yeah !
Kayla : Oh , my God ! A bull s - eye ! Incredible !
Steve : Another one , man . I do nt even have any depth perception , dude .
Bo : You still using that excuse ?
Steve : That s not an excuse . It s a handicap .
Bo : Yeah , you got a handicap , that s for sure .
Kayla : Oh ! Whoa !
Steve : Lucky shot .
Bo : Like hell . That is called skill . Luck had nothing to do with it .
Steve : No , luck had everything to do with it . Your form s all wrong , dude .
Bo : My form ?
Steve : Yeah , listen , I know what I m talking about . Come here . Let me fix you up here .
Bo : Get away from me . You know , you may not remember who you are , but I am here to tell you that you re the same arrogant son of a --
Kayla : Whoa , whoa , whoa !
Bo : It s true !
Kayla : Bo !
Bo : I mean , he was a know - it - all then . He s a know - it - all now .
Kayla : Look who s talking , mister brother of mine . You know , the two of you are exactly the same . You love each other , but everything is a competition . You do nt agree on anything .
Steve : Funny , back home , I was known as a very easygoing guy .
Kayla : Yeah , right .
Bo : Oh , yeah ?
Steve : Yeah .
Bo : That s very funny . [ Fake laughs ] Watch this form .
Kayla : Oh , there you go . Wow .
Billie : Nice shot .
Bo : Oh , thank you . What are you doing here , Billie ?
Billie : Oh , I just stopped by to get something to eat .
Bo : You remember Kay , do nt you ?
Billie : Hi , Kayla . Good to see you .
Kayla : Yeah .
Billie : You must be Steve . Hi .
Steve : Welcome back from the dead ? Is that what you were gon na say ?
Billie : Something like that , yeah .
Steve : Yeah . It s refreshing to be on equal footing with someone . You do nt know me any better than I know myself .
Billie : I guess not . I mean , I had come to Salem and you had already ... disappeared .
Steve : Right .
Kayla : I ca nt believe it s taken so long for us to get to know each other .
Billie : Well , you ve been gone a long time , but Bo s told me so much about you . I feel like I already know you .
Bo : Hey , we were just having a not - so - friendly game of darts . You want to join ?
Billie : I would love to ! Yeah .
Steve : How about me and Kayla against you and Bo ?
Billie : Okay , but I got to warn you , I m pretty good .
Kayla : I have a better idea . How about the ladies against the gentlemen ?
Billie : Ooh !
Steve : What s the matter ? You do nt want to be my partner ?
Kayla : No , I just think that the two of you would be better as a team .
Steve : Okay , baby . But I m warning you , this is war .
Kayla : Ooh , really ?
Steve : You think I m kidding ? You know I can trace a live target ?
Kayla : A live target ?
Steve : A live target . I used to do it back in Cincinnati all the time . Person stands up against the wall , I outline their body in darts from 30 feet .
Kayla : Really ?
Steve : I m not kidding . Come here . Come here . I ll show you .
Kayla : No , no , no , no , no .
Bo : This is another whale of a story .
Steve : Stand right here . Stand very still . That s very important .
Kayla : You are crazy . I m not standing against that wall for you to throw darts at . What if you miss ? I trust you with my life and everything , but --
Steve : Do nt worry , sweetness . I never miss .
Bo : Sweetness ?
Steve : What ? What d I do ?
Austin : You want to go into business together . Okay .
Kate : Doing what exactly ?
E.J. : This may sound a little crazy , but hear me out . I think we should build a race car , state - of - the - art , and we should sponsor a driver on the national tour .
Austin : The national tour ?
Kate : Well , that would be a small fortune .
Austin : No , not small .
E.J. : It s going to be expensive , but , Kate , the returns will be staggering .
Kate : Yeah , so I ve heard .
E.J. : Mm - hmm .
Kate : I do nt know . That could be great exposure for Basic Black , I suppose .
Sami : And for ARC .
Austin : I assume you d be the driver .
E.J. : Actually , no .
Austin : No . Why ?
E.J. : I have somebody else in mind . And to be quite honest with you , I d rather stay more on the moneymaking end of things on this occasion . Kate , I thought that you could oversee the marketing and the publicity . And , Austin , I thought you would run the day - to - day operations of the company . Now , listen , of course we can still shamelessly use my name for promotions whenever we need to . The bottom line being , we all bring something unique to the table , and the three of us -- four of us , Sami , would make a really excellent team .
Kate : So , what do you think ?
Austin : I think it sounds great . I mean , I m in if you are .
Kate : Really ?
Austin : Yeah .
Kate : It s settled , then .
Austin : Okay .
Kate : Okay , we ll do it .
E.J. : Excellent . I feel very good about this .
Sami : So do I.
Austin : So , who did you have in mind to be the driver ?
E.J. : Oh , that s the best part . It s somebody you actually know .
Max : No , you did nt interrupt anything , Chelsea . Stephanie came by to help work on the car again .
Chelsea : Okay , well , obviously then I am interrupting something , so I ll just let you two guys get back to work .
Stephanie : No , no , no , no . You know what ? We can do this another time . It s a beautiful day . You guys should get out of here and enjoy it .
Max : She s right . Look , I ve seen enough of the garage for one day . Come on . Let s pack a picnic lunch and head down to the beach or something , huh ?
Chelsea : I ca nt .
Max : Why not ?
Chelsea : Well , I actually came by to tell you what happened . I got my community service assignment , and I have to start today , so ...
Max : Oh , that s all . Okay , cool .
Chelsea : What do you mean oh , that s all ? Why do you think I said no ?
Max : I was nt thinking anything . I was just surprised when you said you could nt go . And you came all the way down here . I thought you wanted to do something together .
Chelsea : I did . God , why does this stupid community service thing have to start today ? This sucks .
Max : Look , I m glad it worked out , though . I mean , I thought you were too late to even sign up . I did nt want you to get into trouble .
Chelsea : No , I signed up just in time , thanks to you . I just wish that there was some way I could get out of doing it today , you know ? They have me stuck in some file room as a file clerk at the hospital .
Stephanie : That does nt sound so bad .
Chelsea : Yeah , well , I requested doing , like , dog walking for , like , an animal shelter or being a big sister to , like , a little girl , you know , an underprivileged girl . And I could take her , like , to get manicures and go shopping and have lunch .
Max : Oh .
Stephanie : Do they let you make requests ?
Chelsea : No , but I figured it could nt hurt to try , you know ? But of course they gave me the exact opposite of what I wanted to do on purpose , I m sure .
Max : Come on , Chelsea . You got off so easy . Are you really complaining about your assignment ?
Chelsea : You know who you sound like ?
Max : Hmm ?
Chelsea : My mom .
Max : You know , if you go in actually , maybe , with the right attitude , you might maybe enjoy your work .
Chelsea : Max , I hate hospitals . They re full of germs .
Stephanie : You re gon na be in the file room , Chelsea .
Chelsea : Even the file room has germs .
Stephanie : [ Sighs ] You know what ? When my mom was in med school , I used to be a candy striper .
Chelsea : Oh , boy . I should have known .
Stephanie : You know what ? It was actually kind of fun . I got to read to the kids and visit all the different rooms --
Chelsea : Nobody s gon na be asking me to read to little kids or anything cool like that . You know , my mom s acting like this is gon na be some huge career opportunity for me , too . Like I really want to be a file clerk for the rest of my life .
Max : Yeah , but if you go in and do a good job , maybe they ll give you some more responsibility or you could go in and volunteer for something that interests you .
Chelsea : Yeah , right .
Max : It s only 200 hours , Chelsea .
Chelsea : Yeah , but it s 200 hours that I wo nt get to spend with you .
Max : Yeah , but it s better than going to jail .
E.J. : I think he s right , Chelsea . You should give it a chance .
Max : E.J.
E.J. : Hey . Listen , I m sorry . I did nt mean to butt in .
Max : No , that s fine . Actually , good timing . E.J. here , okay -- he has a great career . He s famous . He enjoys helping out and volunteering in the community .
Chelsea : Well , it s a good thing that there are people like E.J. in the world .
E.J. : I think that we all understand how you feel , Chelsea . You just ca nt see this as a punishment . You actually might find it some of the most rewarding work that you ll ever do .
Chelsea : Mm - hmm .
Max : Look , E.J. , I m sorry about missing the meeting this morning . I had a lot of stuff to do .
E.J. : Oh , it s totally fine . Abby called . We rescheduled . I actually came here to see Stephanie .
Stephanie : Me ?
E.J. : Yeah , I searched the bars , could nt find you , thought I d find you here . I hope you do nt mind me tracking you down .
Stephanie : No , but what for ?
E.J. : I have a proposal for you . Maybe we could go somewhere and talk about it in private .
Patrick : Believe me , I understand that you re not ready to make any kind of serious commitment . I m not even asking for that . I m just -- I just want us to start spending time together again .
Hope : I d like that , too .
Patrick : Really ?
Hope : Yeah , really .
Patrick : Good , good , good . You know , in case I have nt told you enough , I m really happy about this baby , too . I am looking forward to being the best father I can be to this baby and hopefully someday sharing a future with his or her mother .
Hope : I do nt quite know what to say about that .
Patrick : Well , you do nt have to say anything .
Kayla : You called me sweetness .
Steve : I m sorry . I did nt mean to offend you . I -- did I offend you ?
Kayla : No , no , you did nt offend me . I was just surprised . You called me sweetness way back when .
Steve : I did ? Wow .
Kayla : Yeah . Maybe you re on the verge of a breakthrough . Maybe --
Delivery Person : Excuse me , gentlemen . Are either of you Bo Brady ?
Bo : Yeah , that d be me . What can I do for you ?
Delivery Person : Consider yourself served .
Bo : What the hell ? I do nt believe this .
Billie : Bo , what is it ?
Bo : Hope had me served with a summons to divorce court .
Billie : Oh , my God .
Kayla : I m so sorry . It s not over yet , Bo .
Bo : Damn right it s not .

### Dialogue:
Jack : [ Sighs ] Come on . Come on . Voicemail again .
Traci : [ Sighs ] Billy . He s probably got his phone turned off .
Abby : He really should nt be out there alone .
Traci : Well , wherever he is and whoever he is with , there s no escaping what today is .
Abby : I ca nt believe it s been a whole year since Delia died .
Jack : It feels like yesterday .
Traci : You know , it was all so fresh -- that first anniversary after I lost colleen . It felt like I was reliving every single detail of her last day . But now , as the years have gone by , there are some details that have sort of slipped away , and , honestly , I do nt know what s worse -- the pain of remembering or the fear I ll forget .
Abby : Oh , uncle Billy .
Ashley : Hey .
Abby : Mom !
Traci : Hi .
Ashley : Yeah , sorry . It s just me .
Abby : Oh , I did nt know you d be back so soon .
Ashley : Well , I had to come . Hi , honey .
Jack : Wow . Billy will be so glad you re here for him .
Ashley : Yeah , thanks . He s not the only person I needed to be here for .
Victoria : Billy ? Billy ? Are you all right ?
Billy : Yeah . Yeah . I m fine . I was just thinking about the fact that it was a year ago today that we had that perfect morning . You remember ? Dee was so excited about being in the wizard of oz that she practically flew down the stairs , inhaled her breakfast , and then hustled me off to the car to take her to school .
Victoria : Yeah . I remember . You left at , like , what , 6 : 30 ?
Billy : Yeah . The doors were nt even open yet . And her play was nt until 7 : 00 that night . The whole way there , she kept ... saying her lines over and over and cackling like a witch .
Billy : Ohh . The house just seems so quiet now .
Victoria : I m sorry . I hope it s okay I asked my mom to watch Johnny , you know , at the ceremony this morning . I just thought it would be easier for you .
Billy : I thought it was really sweet , what the principal was saying -- the dedication of the garden for Delia . [ Chuckles ] She got so choked up , she could barely finish the speech .
Victoria : Yeah . I could barely get through it myself .
Billy : And then afterwards , all the kids -- they , uh , all jumped in and started playing , and I - I kept picturing Delia jumping in there with them . [ Sighs ] God , Vick . I d give anything to talk to her one more time , you know , just to -- to hold her hand . [ Sighs ]
Victoria : Look , I know it s not ... the same thing that you re talking about , but ... this might help . It s from Delia .
Esther : [ Voice breaking ] They do such a nice job at the cemetery taking care of all the graves , do nt you think ?
Jill : Yeah , I did nt notice .
Esther : I mean , the grass is so green . It s almost like emeralds . I wonder if they put something special in the soil or if it s from all the tears that fall .
Jill : Yeah . I think it s probably the million - dollar sprinkler system , Esther .
Esther : The flowers you left for Delia were so beautiful . I just know she s up there smiling right now .
Jill : That makes one of us .
Esther : I just know that she loved the little pony that I left for her , cause Pinkerton needed a best friend .
Jill : Oh , my God ! That little stuffed animal has been under the ground for over a year ! It s disintegrated ! Oh , my God . I m so sorry . I m so sorry . I do nt know why I said that . Oh , what a horrible thing to say .
Esther : [ Sobbing ] [ Crying ] I miss her so much .
Chelsea : Tomorrow s too late . I need them delivered today . As soon as possible . The card ? She ll never be forgotten .
Chloe : I could nt stay away , baby ... not today .
Kelly : It was sloppy , and it will not be tolerated , so do nt make that mistake again ! [ Sighs ]
Stitch : Tough day , huh ?
Kelly : You know , I just wish people would learn to do their jobs .
Stitch : Why are you yelling at your staff ? That s not like you .
Kelly : Ben , I realize that what I do does nt seem very complicated to you , but there are a lot of moving parts , and I am responsible for these people !
Stitch : Hey . Why do nt you tell me what s bothering you ? Is it Jack ?
Kelly : No ! Well , yes , of course it s on my mind , but -- [ Sighs ] [ Sighs ] Today is the first anniversary of Delia s death .
Stitch : I should have figured something was up . I saw Victoria after I spoke to you yesterday , and she was -- well , let s just say it was more confusing than usual . Maybe I should go over there -- see how she s doing .
Kelly : I think we should both keep our distance .
Ashley : I was completely stunned that Phyllis was home .
Jack : The miracle we d all been hoping for .
Abby : Mm , except for Kelly .
Ashley : How are you dealing with that ?
Jack : I m not -- not right now , anyway .
Traci : Phyllis doctors have warned us that she should not be overwhelmed , so I think he s just concerned it might set her back .
Ashley : Oh , my God . So , you mean you have nt told her yet ?
Jack : To Phyllis , things are exactly the way they were a year ago , and she wants to keep things the way they were -- pick up right where we left off .
Ashley : And what do you want ?
Jack : I do nt know . I do nt know . I m still sorting through the whole thing . In the meantime , Kelly has packed her bags and moved out .
Abby : Oh , shucks .
Ashley : Is that how you talk to your uncle ?
Jack : Yeah , that s exactly how she talks to me , only we re gon na drop this subject . Today is not about me . Today we focus on Billy and getting him through this .
Esther : Nothing like a good cry .
Jill : Yeah . Yeah . I feel better .
Esther : Where are you going now -- be with Billy ?
Jill : Yeah . We re supposed to go over to the Abbott house . What about you ? Have you talked to Chloe ?
Esther : I left her a message . I offered to go to California to spend this time with her , but she turned me down .
Jill : Oh , Esther , I m so sorry . I know how much you wanted to be with her . But listen -- she s got great doctors there , right ? And they re giving her the help she needs .
Esther : She s finally accepting the help . I just wish we had nt --
Jill : Listen , you do nt lose a child without everything in your life changing .
Chloe : I had to come here -- let you know that I ll always remember . I think about you every second of every day . I think about those eyes and how they twinkled when you giggled . [ Chuckles ] Oh , that sound . Ohh , that sound . You had the biggest heart out of anyone I ve ever known . And you were wiser than all of them , too . [ Chuckles ] Such an old soul . My little old soul . I know that you re worried about Mommy , but ... I want you to rest easy now , because Mommy s gon na be okay .
Kevin : Chloe ? You re home .
Chloe : Kevin , no . Do nt .
Billy : What s in here ?
Victoria : Actually , I do nt know . Mrs. Britner gave it to me before we left . She said that she found it recently and that she thought we might like to have it .
Billy : It s one of her school assignments .
Victoria : Oh , you know what ? I remember this one . I remember it . She told me that it was one of the best things that she d ever done in class .
Billy : What I know for sure . It s fun to dress up , and chocolate cakes with lots of pink frosting are the best .
Billy : That s my Dee Dee . You can never have enough animals or tea parties . My mommy is beautiful ...
Victoria : Ohh .
Billy : ... And always gives me big hugs . And my daddy -- my daddy is --
Victoria : My daddy is handsome , and he will always make me laugh . My family loves me ... and when you re scared or sad , if you remember what makes you smile ... [ Crying ] ... Then you smile again . [ Crying ]
Ashley : Oh . No offense -- we were hoping you were Billy .
Jill : Billy is nt here ?
Traci : Well , he left here early this morning , and we really have nt heard anything since .
Jill : Maybe we should start calling around -- find out if somebody knows where he is .
Jack : Let s hold off on that for right now . No reason to panic just yet .
Traci : I m sure he ll be home any minute .
Jill : Good , good , because ... you know that news we were hoping to share ? It s happened .
Chelsea : Once there was a little girl who brought so much joy to everybody that she knew . And her parents had such big hearts that [ Sniffles ] Once she was gone , they decided to share a part of her with you . Her name was Delia .
Victoria : We did nt finish it .
Billy : Yeah . Uh ... another time , another day , okay ?
Victoria : Was I wrong to give it to you ? I m sorry . I - I - I just thought it would help , but ... maybe it was just too much .
Billy : No . No . It was , um ... it was perfect . Thank you . I m gon na head on out , okay ?
Victoria : Yeah , okay . Sure . Um ... whatever you need to do . But , uh [ Sniffles ] Listen , if you need anything , I mean ... and just let me know when you want to see Johnny , of course .
Billy : Yeah , I will . Listen , Vick , um ... I m sorry .
Victoria : Wh - what for ?
Billy : For everything . I mean , this whole last year , I - I did nt handle it the way that I should have . And I still do nt know what the right way would have been . You know me . I m the kind of guy who needs guidance . But , um ... but I handled it all wrong .
Victoria : You know what ? Tomorrow ... this year is gon na be over , and a new one will begin , and ... you do nt owe me any more apologies . I m good . [ Crying ]
Billy : Well , hey , kid . What -- what are you doing here ?
Delia : I ve come to help you , daddy .
Billy : [ Sighs ]
Kevin : I did nt mean to , uh , get -- sorry . It s great to see you .
Chloe : How are you ?
Kevin : I m good . Yeah . Better now , and , uh ... how are you ? Your mom said you ve been making a lot of progress .
Chloe : I have . Well , that s what they say . [ Chuckles ]
Kevin : So , are you staying with your mom ?
Chloe : I m not staying .
Kevin : Oh .
Chloe : I just got a 24-hour pass , and I just wanted to slip in and out without anyone knowing I was in town .
Kevin : Oops .
Chloe : So , you wo nt tell anyone , will you ? I just do nt want my mom and everybody knowing . You know , this was for Delia , not for anybody else .
Kevin : Yeah , okay .
Chelsea : I did nt know what to find when I got here . I half expected everything would be gone .
Kevin : [ Scoffs ] People have not forgotten about Delia . If anything , the memorial s grown bigger .
Chloe : She had that effect on people .
Kevin : Yeah . That she did .
Chloe : [ Chuckles softly ] She loved you so much , Kevin .
Kevin : She loved the two of us together . Kind of makes you wonder . Maybe the two of us running in to each other here -- maybe it s not a coincidence .
Chloe : You could be right . I do nt think Delia would have liked the way that I treated you , especially the way that ... I sent those divorce papers out of the blue . I am not proud of that , either . I think that there are some things that you deserve to hear . I want you to know that you could nt have been more supportive after Dee Dee . No one fought harder for me to get well . You did everything possible . You held me at night , you made me eat , and you stood there and you took it while I railed at you for caring about me . And I hate that I did that .
Kevin : You do nt have to apologize .
Chloe : Yes , I do . I really do , because I was in a really bad place , and you were just trying to do whatever you possibly could to make sure that I was okay . And I needed a professional , and I needed to get away from here . That s why I left .
Kevin : I could have gone .
Chloe : No , you could nt have , because it would have just made everything worse , and then I would have felt obliged to take care of you and I would have resented you for it .
Kevin : So , you do nt resent me now ?
Chloe : Kevin , I love you ... but not in the way that you want .
Kevin : You know , when you got on the plane , you led me to believe that -- Chloe , I thought there was still a chance for us .
Chloe : I should have told you then . I just did nt want to disappoint you . I - I did nt know how to deal with it .
Kevin : And then after you d been in therapy for a while and you could deal with it , you could nt pick up a phone once to call me and tell me not to hold out hope ?
Chloe : It s not something you really want to talk about over the phone .
Kevin : Yeah , maybe , but still . Why do I get the feeling that there s another reason you ve been avoiding me ?
Abby : Uncle Billy was supposed to be home for lunch , and do nt bother telling me I should nt be worried .
Jack : I wo nt . I m starting to worry myself .
Billy : [ Sighs ]
Delia : Why are you so nervous ?
Billy : Oh , it s -- it s not nerves , Dee . I just -- I just do nt want everybody making a fuss over me .
Delia : But they re your family . That s what keeps you strong . That s what you always told me .
Billy : You re so wise . How d you get to be so smart ? [ Chuckles ]
Traci : And who are you calling ?
Jill : Victoria . She must know where he is . Oh , thank God !
Jack : Hey !
Billy : Well , hey . Well , look at this . You gathered the whole posse .
Jack : You ever check your voicemail ?
Billy : I m -- I m sorry . I did nt mean to freak everybody out .
Ashley : Come here , Billy .
Billy : Hey , ash . I hope you did nt come all this way just for me .
Ashley : Of course I did . Of course I did . You re worth it , too .
Abby : Hey . Where were you ? We expected you a while ago .
Billy : The ceremony at Delia s just -- it lasted a little longer than we expected .
Traci : Billy , these beautiful flowers came for you .
Billy : Oh , that s great . You know , I m gon na check those out later . I m gon na head upstairs and change .
Jill : No , no . No . No . Before you do ... we have some news to share .
Billy : Okay . Good news , I hope .
Jack : Jill and I have been shepherding a little program to add to the Delia project .
Jill : Yeah , and it s been in the works for a while , but now , thanks to a generous donation from Victor and Nikki , we finally reached our goal .
Billy : The black knight is involved ?
Jack : I d go to Vlad the impaler for money if I thought I d get this off the ground .
Abby : Okay . I m gon na ignore all the cracks about my dad because I can not wait to hear what you guys dreamed up .
Jill : Here it is . It s a children s theater .
Jack : A place where kids of all ages and backgrounds can take the stage and become stars .
Jill : Because Delia wanted to be an actress -- that was her dream -- and now maybe she can help some other little girl become the next Meryl Streep .
Billy : That is , uh -- wow . That s an amazing idea . I mean , um ... [ Voice breaking ] Delia would love it .
Ashley : Billy ?
Billy : I m -- I m okay .
Jill : Of course you are . Of course you are .
Billy : [ Sighs ]
Jack : Hey , look -- we re here to help you . Let us help . Tell us how .
Billy : I appreciate everybody s effort -- I really do -- but , um ... I ve had plenty of help today , so ... [ Sighs ]
Kelly : Victoria .
Victoria : Do you have a minute ? I d like a word with you . Does that surprise you ?
Kelly : Uh , yeah , it does -- today of all days .
Victoria : Yeah , I know . Today has brought up a lot of memories . But it s also made me realize that I need to speak to you .
Kelly : Listen , first anniversaries -- emotions run high . Whatever it is that you have to say , maybe it would be better if you did it on another day .
Victoria : No . No , this is exactly the right time .
Kelly : I d rather not get into anything with you .
Victoria : That s not my intention at all -- quite the opposite . I was trying to look for a way to honor Dee Dee today . And , uh ... it came to me earlier , when I came across a composition that she had written in school . And it was almost as if she had taken me by the arms and shook me and said ... stop wasting your life being so angry and frustrated . Life is just too short .
Kelly : Yeah , it really is .
Victoria : And I think we ve all suffered enough . I really do . All of the anger and the blame ... I honestly think we all need to let it go .
Billy : I spent the whole night staring at the ceiling . I was running memories of Delia in my head , you know , like -- like watching movies in the dark . And every once in a while , I d roll over and I d -- I d look out the window to see if there was any sunlight peeking through , because I was dreading that damn sunrise , cause it meant that this day was finally here , you know ? But then it happened . The sun came up , like it always does , and , uh ... the world did nt come to an end , so -- so I got up . I got in the shower . I got dressed . I even made it through Delia s ceremony at school .
Jill : That s wonderful .
Ashley : You re doing great , Billy .
Traci : Billy , trust me -- there s no right or wrong way to get through this day . The feelings sort of creep up on you before you even expect it , and the best I can tell you is just be in it 100 % . Take it for what it is and be kind to yourself .
Billy : I want that to be my legacy to Delia . I , um -- I want her to be proud . Uh ... all day today , I feel like she s sort of been with me , and I just want to be the kind of man that she believed that I could be .
Jack : We all know that you can do that .
Billy : Yeah . I know it , too . She reminded me of that today . Um , look , I just remembered something else I need to do , but ... I want to leave this with you guys . You should read it . You ll be glad you did .
Chloe : I already told you why I ve been avoiding you .
Kevin : No . I think there s more to it .
Chloe : Like what ? Like I ve been sleeping with my doctor ?
Kevin : Are you ?
Chloe : Kevin .
Kevin : What ? Maybe you re not doing as well as you say you are . Maybe that s why you ve been hiding .
Chloe : I have nt been hiding . I ve been in the hospital .
Kevin : Just before you left , you were going on about having another baby with Billy so that you could re - create Delia , and that was after you d kidnapped Connor to be her replacement . Issues like that , Chloe -- they take a long time to work through .
Chloe : Yeah , it does . It does , and that s why I have been moving forward and using all of my energy to heal , and I m sorry that I had to cut you out of my life in order to do that .
Kevin : So , what about after ? What about when you re done with your therapy ?
Chloe : No .
Kevin : But you do nt know --
Chloe : No , I am going to start over , and it s not gon na be in Genoa City and it s not gon na be with you .
Kevin : So , after everything that we ve been through , after all of our years together , you re saying this is it ?
Chloe : It has to be . I did nt mean to hurt you , Kevin . I just have nothing left to give you . Goodbye .
Kelly : You know , that really means a lot to me -- your willingness to put everything behind us .
Victoria : I mean , I do nt think that we re ever gon na be friends .
Kelly : [ Laughing ] No . I realize that would be asking a lot .
Victoria : It s just that this baby s gon na be coming fairly soon , and you might end up being family , and , you know , I just do nt want there to be any lingering negativity and all that .
Kelly : Well , thank you for that . That really means a lot , especially right now . It s nice to have the extra burden off my plate .
Victoria : So , I - I heard that Phyllis is back .
Kelly : Yeah . Yeah , just when Jack and I had taken the next step . Life s not short on complications , is it ?
Victoria : No , it s not .
Stitch : I finished my workout . Hey , Victoria .
Victoria : Hi .
Kelly : Well , yeah . I got to get back to work . Um ... thanks for the talk . See ya , Ben .
Stitch : So , I , uh , overheard what you said . I could tell she appreciated you trying to make peace . I ca nt imagine that was easy for you .
Victoria : Well , you know , it s easier than living in the past . I m just tired of it dictating my life .
Stitch : So , that kiss yesterday that you gave me -- was that you moving forward or saying goodbye ?
Victoria : I know that I ve been , um , you know , giving you mixed signals since I found out what you did to your dad . I realize I should nt do that to you anymore .
Jack : Wow . Out of the mouths of babes .
Jill : She was nt a babe . She was wise beyond her years .
Ashley : I love that line . A mani is nothing without a pedi ...
Both : Especially when you can get both for a dollar more .
Traci : [ Laughs ]
Jack : I think that came along at exactly the right time .
Traci : Delia is definitely looking over us .
Abby : Over us and uncle Billy .
Ashley : Now that Billy s feeling stronger , I wonder what the future has in store for him .
Abby : Well , he s gon na get back together with Victoria , no matter who the baby s father turns out to be .
Traci : I think Chelsea might have something to say about that .
Jill : Chelsea ? Please . Her relationship with Billy is just a fling . I mean , he s in love with Victoria . Chelsea s not in the same league as Victoria .
Jack : Actually , I ve spent a little time with Chelsea , and there s more to her than you think .
Abby : She s a con artist , uncle Jack .
Jack : Was a con artist .
Jill : Do people like that ever really change ?
Jack : You might want to ask yourself the same question , Jill .
Ashley : Okay , let s not do this -- not today , please .
Jack : Look , my point is Billy has turned to her time and again for friendship , and she s been there for him .
Jill : Are you actually saying you want to see him with that woman ?
Jack : No . I am saying I want Billy with the best woman for him , whoever that may be .
Delia : I just want you to be happy .
Billy : [ Chuckles softly ] Well , I m working on it , kid . How about we just go with happy thoughts the rest of the day , okay ?
Delia : Like Halloween .
Billy : Yeah .
Delia : What are you gon na be ?
Billy : Uh , gosh . I - I have nt given it much thought .
Delia : Daddy .
Billy : I know . I know . It s our favorite . What do you think I should be ?
Delia : A zombie pirate or a werewolf astronaut .
Billy : Wow . Those are great ideas . What about you ? How bout , um , a Frankenstein ballerina or , like , a giant spider on roller skates ?
Delia : No . I just want to be your little girl .
Billy : That sounds perfect .
Delia : Happy thoughts , daddy .
Billy : Yeah . Happy thoughts , Dee . [ Sighs ]
Delia : My name is Cordelia Katherine valentine Abbott , and there s lots of stuff I know for sure .
Jill : Jack ... could you make a copy of that for me ?
Jack : Yeah , you bet .
Jill : And maybe you d better make a copy for Esther , too . You know , that ninny could learn a lot from her granddaughter .
Jack : Yeah , I think we all could .
Jill : Boy . That came just in time for Billy , did nt it ?
Jack : I think Billy s gon na be all right .
Jill : How bout you ?
Jack : Me ?
Jill : You have quite a conundrum on your hands , do nt you -- Phyllis , Kelly , Kelly , Phyllis ?
Jack : I am not going to talk about that today , especially with you .
Delia : You have to listen to the truth , even when it s hard .
Jill : Meaning you have nt made up your mind yet .
Jack : I do nt want to hurt either one of them .
Jill : My friend , somebody always gets hurt in these situations , okay ? And the longer you take to make up your mind , the worse it s gon na be .
Delia : There s no place like home . Dorothy said that in my favorite story , and she s right .
Traci : So ... how long do we get you before you have to go back to New York ?
Ashley : Longer than you think .
Abby : What does that mean ?
Ashley : My ticket was one - way . I m home for good .
Abby : Yay ! Ohh !
Traci : That s fantastic .
Jack : Hey . Did I hear that right ?
Ashley : Yeah , you did . The Abbotts are back together again .
Abby : Yes !
Ashley : Yay !
Traci : [ Chuckles ]
Delia : Everyone tells you to make good choices , but that s not as easy as they want you to think . So , if you re having trouble , do your best and believe everything will be okay .
Chloe : Dee Dee , I ve missed you so much . But that horrible emptiness ... is finally gon na be filled .
Delia : If you re mad at someone , do nt stay that way , because you re wasting time when you could be happy .
Stitch : Victoria , wait .
Victoria : [ Sighs ]
Stitch : What exactly are you saying ?
Victoria : I am saying that I care about you . And even though I may not be there yet [ Sighs ] I - I really want to forgive you .
Stitch : Well , that s a start .
Delia : Each day is different , which means even if you re having the worst day , you can have a better one tomorrow .
Chelsea : Are you alone ?
Billy : Uh , no . No . I ve been spending the day with this amazing little girl .
Chelsea : Good . I was worried about you .
Billy : Thank you for the flowers . They were from you , were nt they ? I did nt get a chance to read the card yet .
Chelsea : Then how did you know they were from me ?
Billy : I figured you were trying to stay away because of Adam but that you wanted me to know you were still thinking about me .
Chelsea : It was hard not to go to you today , Billy . I m -- I m so sorry .
Billy : [ Sighs ] Listen , um ... the past few months , having you by my side -- you ve been the most incredible friend , and yesterday when I told you that I wanted to have you in my life , I said that because ... because I love you , Chelsea .
Chelsea : Billy ...
Billy : Now , um , let s get out of here , cause I got a Halloween costume to work on .
Chelsea : What ?
Billy : Happy thoughts .
Joe : You know that real - estate deal I was telling you about ?
Cane : Yeah .
Joe : I need to ask you a favor .
Nick : The wedding is on hold indefinitely .
Avery : Why ?
Nick : Because of your sister .
Summer : Um , it means that Austin -- we re engaged .
Phyllis : You re what ? !

### Dialogue:
Steffy : You re one surprise after another .
Amber : You must be Rick .
Rick : So , uh , you re the babysitter .
Amber : Does that make you a baby ?
Rick : No . ( Chuckles )
Amber : Then do nt call me a babysitter . You re such a kid . What are you doing ? No ! ( Squeals ) ( Laughing ) No ! No .
Marcus : Um , excuse me . Earth to Amber ?
Amber : Marcus . ( Chuckles ) How long have you been standing there ?
Marcus : Long enough to put a name to that dopey smile on your face .
Amber : Ah . You think you know me so well .
Marcus : Well , tell me if I m wrong . You were daydreaming about Rick , were nt you ?
Steffy : So what brings you here ? Or need I ask ?
Rick : I came by to see if my new boss requires my services .
Steffy : A little late , do nt you think ?
Rick : That depends on what you might be needing .
Liam : ( Sighs ) Stephanie ?
Stephanie : The front door was unlocked . That s not a very safe thing .
Liam : ( Chuckles ) I was taking a - a walk on the ... beach .
Stephanie : Still not a safe thing . I could be a serial killer .
Liam : I guess I-- I , um , got lucky this time . What are you-- what are you doing here ? I mean , you did nt drop by to say hi .
Stephanie : Well , I noticed that your life is in absolute chaos ... ( Chuckles ) At this moment , and I - I certainly can understand why .
Amber : You got me . That was my Rick Forrester look .
Marcus : Mm - hmm . ( Chuckles )
Amber : ( Giggles ) Oh , hey , while you re here , I was just about to text these to you . Look .
Marcus : Oh , more pictures of Rosey .
Amber : Is nt she adorable ?
Marcus : Yes , she is . ( Laughs ) All right , do nt forget to send me those , okay ?
Amber : Okay , I m gon na do it right now .
Marcus : Mm - hmm . All right . Oh , wow . These are incredible , girl .
Amber : Oh , you know , just few preliminary ideas .
Marcus : You re inspired .
Amber : It shows , huh ?
Marcus : Mm - hmm . So does Rick get credit for this , too ?
Amber : Well , what can I say ? The guy inspires me on many levels .
Marcus : Mm - hmm . I wonder if he sees you coming .
Amber : Mm , he d be blind not to . I have nt exactly been subtle , you know ? You know me , the old , uh , direct approach .
Hope : ( Chuckles ) Liam , I m so g-- oh . I m -- I m sorry . I m sorry .
Man : I guess you were expecting someone else .
Hope : Sort of . Not really , no . ( Chuckles )
Man : I m sorry . I need you to sign for this .
Hope : Yeah , sure . ( Sighs ) There you go .
Man : All right .
Hope : Thank you .
Brooke : Where s Rick ?
Hope : Oh , um , he went to see Steffy .
Brooke : Oh . Amazing , is nt it ?
Hope : Mm .
Brooke : How appeasing Steffy becomes a full - time job ? I still ca nt believe that she turned the tables on Rick like that , getting him to believe that she signed the annulment papers . And Rick s not easy to fool .
Hope : Well , neither is Steffy . That s why we got sandbagged . Maybe they re a perfect match .
Rick : You know , there s no need to cover up on my account .
Steffy : I know .
Rick : Expecting Liam ?
Steffy : I called him . ( Sighs ) I was hoping he d stop by .
Rick : ( Inhales deeply ) Well , it looks like he s a no - show . I do nt really know why you re stuck on the guy . Maybe Liam s just a habit you might need to break .
Steffy : Hmm . And lucky for me , here stands your wonderful self ?
Rick : Would you like to take advantage of me ?
Steffy : I thought we were done for the night .
Rick : ( Groans ) Oh , darn . I guess the secret s out .
Steffy : Mm .
Rick : I ca nt get enough of you , Steffy .
Liam : So you re here to make a case for Steffy .
Stephanie : Well , I just want you to think before you make such an incredible decision .
Liam : You really believe I have nt ?
Stephanie : Well , I do nt know . I mean , for all I know , you feel a sense of obligation and duty to Hope .
Liam : I--
Stephanie : Wait , I ... ( Sighs ) I - I mean absolutely no disrespect , uh , for the feelings and the emotions that you have where Hope is concerned . But Steffy s your wife . That s what it comes down to , does nt it ? Hope comes with her own problems , does nt she ?
Liam : Yeah , but Steffy comes with problems , too . I mean , you re right . She s -- she s incredible .
Stephanie : ( Sighs ) Most men that are about to divorce , uh , their wives do nt usually say things like that .
Liam : I know , but this is nt your average situation .
Stephanie : You re right , and she s not your average girl . I ll give you this-- yes , she does nt always think about the consequences , and she is very impetuous . But , Liam , you knew that before you married her .
Liam : Yeah , but , Stephanie , a lot has happened since then .
Stephanie : Ow . I understand that .
Liam : ( Sighs )
Stephanie : Let me-- look , I know about Rick and these annulment papers , and I want to ask you something . How did you feel when you found out she was still your wife ?
Rick : What s your attitude on full disclosure ?
Steffy : I m new at it , but I m learning .
Rick : Hope sent me over here ... to try to distract you away from Liam .
Steffy : Not a bad strategy . Hope s using her head-- could be a dangerous precedent . Thanks for the tip . But why give her up ?
Rick : I do nt want our relationship to be based on deception .
Steffy : We have a relationship ?
Rick : Oh , come on , Steffy . You re , like , smart and beautiful and sexy , and you re just the complete package-- everything a guy would want , especially this guy .
Steffy : You know , this-- this sounds a little too familiar . I mean , we ve been down this road before . We crashed and burned , remember ?
Rick : Yeah . But you got ta admit , it was one hell of a ride .
Steffy : ( Sighs )
Brooke : Okay , wait a minute . ( Sighs ) Since when did Rick and Steffy become a perfect match in any context ?
Hope : They measure up well together . They re equals , you know ? I - I bet that Rick can get through to Steffy the way that no one else has been able to .
Brooke : What are you talking about ? He could nt even get her to sign those annulment papers ! Steffy saw through him in all of , what ? Five minutes ? She s never gon na able to take him at face value .
Hope : Okay , well , Rick did nt just go over there on my behalf . I mean , yes , that was part of it , but he s ... got his own reasons for wanting them to be in a good place .
Brooke : Because they have a new working relationship .
Hope : No , because Rick is starting to have real feelings for Steffy .
Brooke : ( Groans )
Amber : You probably think I m dreaming , right ? Or nuts ?
Marcus : Unh - unh . I do nt answer a lot of questions , girl .
Amber : ( Laughs sarcastically )
Marcus : ( Chuckles )
Amber : Hey , maybe you could do me a favor .
Marcus : ( Sighs )
Amber : Put in a good word for me with Stephanie and Brooke . You know , the matriarchs ? Who knows if it ll do any good ? I mean , at this point , I might just have to write off Stephanie and Brooke as lost causes . But there s a whole younger generation that might not have a problem with me-- Steffy , for instance . I mean , she seems pretty cool and open and all that .
Marcus : Oh ... you just reminded me-- I need to go drop this off to Steffy at her loft .
Amber : Her loft ?
Marcus : Yeah , well , she was staying with her mom for a while when she moved out of Liam s . But I guess she just wanted to go back to her own spot , so ...
Amber : Oh . Fate is such a beautiful thing . Let me take em for you .
Marcus : Why ?
Amber : So I can start bonding with her .
Marcus : No , I , um , do nt really think that s a good idea . Steffy s not big on surprises .
Amber : No , you re just dropping em off , right ? No meeting or anything ?
Marcus : Yeah , but I dont--
Amber : So I will say it was on my way . I m actually doing you a huge favor . Thank you , Marcus . Mwah ! You rock !
Marcus : I rock .
Amber : ( Whispers ) Bye .
Brooke : How worried should I be about Rick s rekindled interest in Steffy ?
Hope : I know you do nt like the idea . ( Sighs ) Um ...
Brooke : Can you blame me ?
Hope : Well , okay , but this could be a really good thing . I mean , if Rick gets Steffy s attention , then Liam and I could finally live our lives ! He and I have to concentrate on each other .
Brooke : I agree , but do you really want to sacrifice your brother ?
Hope : ( Sighs ) Who knows ? I mean , Rick is in a different place now than when he and Steffy first got together , and she s been through a lot , too . And he really cares about her , so this could work out great for everybody .
Brooke : Honey , I know you want to believe that , but Rick could be manipulated , too . If he s not playing a game with her , she may be playing one with him . Do you really think it s above her , using Rick to get Liam back ?
Liam : Okay , truth ?
Stephanie : Mm - hmm .
Liam : My first instinct when I found out that Steffy did nt sign the papers was to laugh . I mean , the -- the fact that she would make us all think that she s gon na do what we wanted her to do , and then turns around and gives us the finger , I mean , th - that s classic . That s classic Steffy .
Stephanie : Mm - hmm . They re both very different young women .
Liam : Yeah .
Stephanie : I see you with Steffy , and I see that she makes you laugh , that there s a real chemistry between the two of you .
Liam : You know what ? I do nt deny any of that .
Stephanie : Marriages have been based on a lot less than that , so I think you d better really be sure before you toss her aside . Honey , there s going to be a lot of men around to pick up the pieces .
Liam : You mean , men like Rick .
Rick : When did predictable become acceptable ?
Steffy : Uh , Liam is far from predictable .
Liam : Oh , come on , he s not even in your league .
Steffy : Ohh , you , on the other hand , hmm--
Rick : You re damn straight .
Steffy : He said modestly .
Rick : I m not done with you , Steffy . I had a , uh , a great time tonight .
Steffy : Eh , I guess it was nt horrible .
Rick : Oh , you had fun , and you know it .
Steffy : Arrogant .
Rick : Gorgeous .
Steffy : Wait , Rick . Wait , wait , wait . No , you know-- oh , goodness . You are ... a great guy , but this isnt-- is nt happening .
Rick : I m not giving up on you , Steffy .
Steffy : Please , please do . I m still in love with my husband .
Rick : ( Groans ) He s already made his decision .
Steffy : Well , you can tell your sister it s not over .
Rick : You know , I really hate seeing you waste your time .
Steffy : That s my problem . And I m not wasting my time , because my husband still loves me .
Rick : You know what ?
Steffy : Hmm ?
Rick : I ll be around , if you ... ever come to your senses .
Steffy : I already have .
Rick : ( Sighs )
Steffy : Rick , wh-- honestly , what are you doing ? I already--
Amber : You thought it d be Rick ? Hmm .
Steffy : Amber .
Amber : That s from Marcus . And this is from me-- keep your paws off my man .
Steffy : Wait , did you seriously just say , stay away from Rick ? Your man ?
Amber : Good . You understood me , so I wo nt have to say it again .
Steffy : Wait , you and Rick are together ? That s not the impression that I got .
Amber : Look , Rick and I , we go way back . We have a-- an incredible history .
Steffy : Yeah , I heard quite a bit about that , actually .
Amber : Do nt say it like that . You know , a lot of what we shared was pretty amazing .
Steffy : Okay .
Amber : And he still cares about me .
Steffy : So ...
Amber : So ... I am working with Rick on his designs now . Look , I would like you and I to be friends , but that wo nt happen if you are crawling all over him . So just stop , all right ? And we ll be fine .
Steffy : Fine . Fine . Yes , if -- if you can nab him , he is all yours . I m not interested in Rick , and I - I just told him that . I m still in love with Liam . And , yes , okay , we are going through a divorce right now . ( Sighs ) But I am hoping like hell it wo nt happen .
Amber : And what if it does ? Will you be on the prowl for Rick ?
Steffy : Amber , come on ! I m not even thinking about that , all right ? I have one thing on my mind , and that is saving my marriage . Liam is the only man for me , okay ? And I am determined to remain his wife .
Hope : Rick has been with Steffy for quite a while now . Wonder what s going on ?
Brooke : No , no , no . I still say nothing is going on .
Hope : Oh , finally , you re back . Okay , so what happened ? What s going on ?
Brooke : Are you out of your mind ? You re really interested in her again ?
Rick : All right , just calm down .
Brooke : Rick , Steffy has been a wrecking ball in this family .
Rick : ( Clears throat )
Hope : Oh , Mom , come on . Come on .
Brooke : Okay , I just do nt want my son to be the next casualty .
Rick : Well , you re not gon na have to worry about that . I did nt want you to have to hear this , sis .
Hope : ( Sighs ) She s not giving up on Liam , is she ?
Rick : I did nt go there to play her . You knew that , she knew it . I still ca nt get anywhere with that girl . She s still crazy about Liam . ( Sighs )
Hope : Great . That means she s going to be throwing herself at him every chance she can get .
Brooke : Honey , Liam loves you . He is committed to you . He s made his choice .
Hope : ( Sighs )
Liam : Stephanie , I said it before , I ve made my decision .
Stephanie : What s in your heart ?
Liam : Hope .
Stephanie : No second thoughts ?
Liam : No , I love Hope more than anything . Why are nt we talking about that ?
Stephanie : Well , because I think you love Steffy . How did you feel when you saw her out with Rick ?
Liam : We -- well , s - Steffy s vulnerable , and Rick s a jerk , so--
Stephanie : You do nt want her to be involved with anyone else .
Liam : Anyone who s gon na use her .
Stephanie : Okay , why do nt you just let go , then ?
Liam : Why -- why is it so wrong for me to care ? For me to w - worry ?
Stephanie : It s not . She s your wife . Look , people go through these things . They have these kinds of problems , honey . No , she did things that made you doubt her , but she loves you . You have to know that . Listen , Eric and I ... ( Chuckles ) Went through some terrible , terrible times . He was a philandering son of a bitch . And I did terrible things to him . He did terrible things to me .
Liam : ( Chuckles )
Stephanie : We hurt each other , and we hurt a lot of innocent people . But we never gave up on each other . And here we are , right now at this moment , and we love each other more than we ever have , and we re together . And I m very proud of that . You love Steffy . I can see it . That s not going to go away , Liam . Hold on to this marriage . I really think the two of you could have the most exciting life together .

Brooke : Ridge ? What are you doing here ?
Ridge : Wanted to see my son . And you . Something happened last night when I went to see Taylor .
Brooke : I know . I drove up to Big Bear to try to find you . Stop you from making a huge mistake . I guess I was too late .
Ridge : We tried , but we just could nt make it work .
Brooke : Try harder .
Ridge : You ca nt just pick up a marriage after all those years , when you know there s somewhere else you need to be . We have a child , Brooke . We built a family . I know I hurt you . And I have no right to ask . But could you forgive me ? Is it possible -- remotely possible -- that you could take me back ?
Stephanie : Taylor ? Taylor , are you home ? Oh , honey . Oh , Taylor . I know , Ridge -- Ridge came to see me . He told me what happened , honey .
Taylor : It s over .
Stephanie : No , it s not . Look , he s just overreacting to this whole situation . He s mad at everybody . He threatened to throw me out of his life if I do nt accept Brooke , so --
Taylor : He s going back to her .
Stephanie : No , he s not . Now , come on . Come on now . Pull yourself together . I mean it . We have a battle to fight here .
Taylor : No . No , I m through fighting . I wo nt do it .
Brooke : You ca nt just give up on your marriage .
Ridge : My place is here , Brooke , with you , R.J. and hope .
Brooke : You just said you ca nt pick up where you left off and expect everything to be the same .
Ridge : It s different with us .
Brooke : Yes , it is different . I m different . Things have changed .
Ridge : But they should nt have . I should have ended it with Taylor the moment I realized I was manipulated into renewing our vows .
Brooke : But you did nt .
Ridge : The kids were so happy to have their family back . After everything that had happened -- everything that happened with Taylor -- I made a mistake , Brooke . The biggest mistake of my life . I was wrong . I made the wrong choice . I wanted to please everyone and wound up pleasing no one . Especially you . Brooke , there was a time when I made you happy . Brooke , I can do that again .
Nick : Yo .
Hope : Guess what we got ?
Ridge : Well , from the smell -- I d say it s breakfast .
Brooke : Nick took Hope down to the pier to get some Belgian waffles .
Hope : Want some ?
Ridge : Oh , no thanks , kiddo . Your mommy and I have some things we need to talk about .
Nick : Like what ? Brooke , what is it the two of you have to talk about ?
Brooke : Ridge , why do nt you take R.J. and Hope , and go into the kitchen . Catherine can help you put some butter and some syrup on those waffles , okay ?
Ridge : You and I still need to talk .
Brooke : I know , I just need a moment with Nick , that s all .
Ridge : Come on , sweetie , let s go to the kitchen to get something to eat . Come on .
Nick : He s not wearing his wedding ring .
Brooke : No .
Nick : Which means he called it off with Taylor .
Brooke : I could nt get there in time .
Nick : And here he is . Here he is . The guy did nt even take a breath , and he jumped from Taylor to you .
Brooke : Nobody s jumping anywhere .
Nick : I told you this would happen . It s like some sadistic ping - pong match with the two of you . Back and forth . You , Taylor . This family , that family . It s got to stop . You ve got to get him out of this house .
Brooke : Nick , calm down . I m handling it .
Nick : Why do nt you let me handle it ? I ll throw him out of this house right now while those kids are having breakfast .
Brooke : No , you wo nt .
Nick : He s R.J. s father , there s nobody that questions that . But that s not why he s here , is it ? So tell me -- he asked you to take him back , did nt he ? How long this time , huh ? How long before he changes his mind and breaks your heart again ? And guess what , I m not going to let it happen .
Brooke : Nick , wait .
Hope : Look at me !
Nick : Well , what are you wearing there , sweet pea ?
Ridge : Oh , just a little present from Paris .
Brooke : You look so pretty . I bet I know who would appreciate that hat . Jackie . Maybe Uncle Nick could take you to go see her .
Hope : Can we ? Now ?
Nick : Well , I m going to have a little talk with Ridge first outside .
Brooke : I think you should go now . I ll handle this .
Nick : Come here , kiddo . Thatta girl .
Ridge : Do nt forget this .
Brooke : All right , honey . Have a good time , okay ?
Hope : Okay .
Stephanie : You and Ridge are still married . You can work this out .
Taylor : No . What we had is in the past , Stephanie . The perfect life I wanted -- that ended a long time ago . When I was gone , my life stood still . But Ridge s moved on , with Brooke . And now , it s my turn to move on . And I think you should , too .
Jackie : No , no , no , no , no . Please , the pleasure was all mine . Bye bye , Oscar .
Nick : Oscar ? Like my cousin Oscar ?
Jackie : De la Renta .
Nick : Oh .
Jackie : Hello , darling . Oh , my word . Mademoiselle , I love that beret .
Hope : It itches .
Nick : Of course it itches . It s a present from Ridge . Here , take that .
Jackie : Well , you look beautiful in it . Better than that sailor s cap .
Nick : No , it s not . Look , now that s my girl . Look at that . Huh ?
Jackie : Oh , Andrea , I m glad you re here . Why do nt you take Hope into my office . You might find a little surprise in there waiting .
Nick : Go on , go with Andrea . There you go . Will see you in a little bit .
Jackie : The beret ? The beret ? Come on , sit down . Okay , tell me , what s going on ?
Nick : I just left Brooke s house . Forrester s over there right now .
Jackie : He did nt want to visit with Hope ?
Nick : Oh , he wants to do more than visit , Mother . He split with Taylor .
Jackie : What ? They re getting divorced ?
Nick : I do nt know -- divorced , annulled , whatever . It s over .
Jackie : Poor Taylor .
Nick : Do nt you mean poor Brooke ? This guy is going to try to worm his way back into her life .
Jackie : Are you sure ? I mean , I could think of plenty of other reasons that he was over at the house .
Nick : Oh , please , Mother . The guy breaks up with his wife one night and the next day , he s parked right in the middle of her living room ? No , I do nt think so . There s only one thing on this guy s mind .
Ridge : Am I wrong or did Nick just ask me to step outside ?
Brooke : He s just looking out for me . He thinks that you re here to sweep me off my feet .
Ridge : Oh , I would never be accused of trying to do something like that .
Brooke : Ridge , I told you -- we had our chance . It s over . So why do nt you just do yourself and your family a favor and go home . Go back to your wife .
Jackie : Sweetheart , you can not allow yourself to get caught up in Brooke s drama , it s --
Nick : She s gon na get hurt , Mother . She ll get hurt .
Jackie : And so will your wife . And so will you , if you do nt stay focused .
Nick : This has nothing to do with me and Bridget .
Jackie : Exactly .
Nick : What about this family , Mother ? What about little Hope ? I mean , Brooke s a big girl , but what about Hope ? If this guy weasels his way back into their lives , all he s going to do is get her to love him and then disappear again !
Jackie : Brooke will not allow that to happen . She s seen it so many times before , she ll stop him . She wo nt fall for that .
Nick : Well , if she does , he s going to answer to me .
Ridge : Brooke , what happened with Taylor -- I was confused .
Brooke : I m not .
Ridge : I let you down . I know that .
Brooke : I ve already accepted your apology .
Ridge : But you deserve so much more than that , Brooke . Now , I m able to give it to you .
Brooke : Ridge , we had a life . We had a family .
Ridge : We can have all of that again .
Brooke : You turned your back on us .
Ridge : All I m asking for is a chance to make it up to you .
Brooke : I gave you a chance . After Jackie and I exposed Stephanie s deception . And you decided to stay with Taylor .
Ridge : Things are different now .
Brooke : Not for me . You hurt me more than anybody ever has . And I m not going to put myself in that position again . So why do nt you go home -- go home to Taylor , and just pray that she ll take you back for the kids sake . Because I wo nt .
Taylor : The battle is over , Stephanie . I am done fighting .
Stephanie : Honey , you have so much to fight for .
Taylor : I know this is hard for you . I know you ve done so much to get Brooke out of your life , but it s got to stop . I ll always cherish the time I had with Ridge . And the years that we had raising our children together . But it s over . That time has passed . And I need to move on . And so do you . For ourselves , for our children -- we have to put down our weapons , and take off our armor , and make new lives for ourselves . Wonderful lives . Lives with new goals , new priorities . We can do that , Stephanie . We can do that together .
Dante : Your favorite -- I figured you could use some cheering up .
Taylor : You heard what happened ?
Dante : Yeah , Bridget told me that you and Ridge have been having some problems .
Taylor : We ended our marriage .
Dante : When ?
Taylor : Last night . Things just were nt working . No matter how hard we tried .
Dante : You know , sometimes it s just not enough .
Taylor : No .
Dante : I mean , look -- look at me . I came all the way here from Italy to be with Bridget .
Taylor : She and Nick --
Dante : And I believe it in my heart that I m the right man for her . You know , that I can make her happy . But I guess it just was nt meant to be .
Taylor : Ridge and I have just -- we ve already gotten through so many other things in life -- I do nt know . I knew things were nt right . I just thought if I had faith --
Dante : Hey , listen , that faith is what brought you home . I know how hard you fought to come back home to Ridge . It s like you were obsessed . You had one vision , one goal . And you would have done anything .
Taylor : I guess just to see him again , and to have been able to hold him .
Dante : That determination may have saved your life .
Taylor : With a lot of help from you . And here you are again .
Dante : I hate seeing you this way .
Taylor : I m all right . I ll be okay .
Dante : You know , there s this Italian proverb that says -- [ Speaking Italian ] Not everything that was bad will come back and hurt you .
Ridge : Logan , Logan --
Brooke : I asked you to leave .
Ridge : I m not going back to Taylor . I m not going back --
Brooke : Ridge , please .
Ridge : Now , just listen -- when I walked away from you and our family , that was the most difficult thing I ve ever done . When you left the house , I loved you as much as I ever did . But , manipulated or not , I had an obligation to Taylor . So we said vows -- and I had an obligation to uphold them . But more and more , that s all it seemed to turn into , was an obligation .
Brooke : You love her , Ridge .
Ridge : Yes , and I love seeing her with our kids .
Brooke : So go back to her .
Ridge : I ca nt .
Brooke : She hurt you . She lied , but you can work past that .
Ridge : Maybe . But I ca nt work past my love for you , Brooke . It s still there . It always will be .
Brooke : It was nt strong enough to keep you from leaving .
Ridge : I messed up . I made a huge mistake in my life . And I do nt blame you for shutting me out . But this is where I belong , Brooke . This is where I belong , if you will just forgive me --
Brooke : It s too late . Just go home , Ridge .
Ridge : My home is here with you , and R.J. and Hope .
Brooke : No . That s never going to happen .
Ridge : Marry me .
Brooke : What ?
Ridge : Be my wife again , Brooke . I know it s out of the blue , but it is right .
Brooke : No !
Ridge : Brooke , we can raise R.J. and hope together . Our son will grow up with his father .
Brooke : Ridge , do nt do this ! I ca nt .
Ridge : Yes , we can . I love you , Brooke . I love you , and I want you in my life . I want you back in my life . I want you now .
Brooke : I said do nt . Do nt do this to me . Please , just leave me alone .

Nick : From designs that are nt even ours . This whole thing stinks .
Jackie : ( Sighs ) Someone at Forrester e - mailed us those designs . Think of it as a gift from above .
Nick : Or a gift from below , Mother . Even if we pull this thing off , we are handing over the presidency of our company to some Benedict Arnold at Forrester , someone we do nt even know .
Jackie : You know what ? I do nt even care , because whoever he is saving us from complete disaster .
Nick : Or causing us to make a decision we ll regret the rest of our lives . And there will be a price to pay when Eric sees his designs on our runway .

Thorne : It s taken care of , Dad . Only those with the access codes can open the file with the designs .
Eric : All right , then , uh , will you do me a favor ? Will you take this downstairs for me , Felicia ?
Felicia : I m not your gopher .
Eric : Is there anything I can do to put a smile on that face ?
Felicia : No . Well , you could divorce Donna .
Brooke : Oh , my God . This is nt time for infighting . Whether you re a Logan or you re a Forrester , we need to pull together !

Jackie : Katie ? I know . I - I - I saw her come in .
Clarke : Yeah . It s really dangerous for her to be around here . She ca nt have the slightest idea of what we re up to .
Jackie : Poor girl . Little does she know that she s walked into a minefield .
Clarke : Which is about to explode with Forrester designs . We ve got to get this show on the road . We have to debut that line as ours before anyone at Forrester suspects what s up .
Nick : I m sorry . I m just a little bit on edge .
Katie : No , that s -- that s okay . I understand . You re obviously more stressed out than what you re letting on , and that s okay . I get it . It s okay to be worried . I just want you to know I m proud of you for the way you re pulling yourself together and you re fighting back . It just shows what kind of man you are .
Nick : Just know that what I m doing is because of you and my mother and Jack-- my family . Know that .
Katie : I know . Are you sure you do nt want me to stay and help ? I mean , I can wield a steamer like nobody s business .
Nick : No , no , no . No . I appreciate that .
Katie : Okay . I ll just keep my fingers crossed then .
Woman : Okay .
Nick : You might want to cross those toes , too .
Katie : Toes are crossed .
Nick : Okay .
Katie : I love you . I just want what s best for you , even though you are my competition . Good luck , Captain .
Nick : Thank you , sailor .
Katie : ( Laughs )
Nick : I love you , too . Do nt forget that .
Katie : Okay .
Woman : Okay . Well , take this one . Okay .
Katie : I ll see you at home .
Nick : Okay .
Nick : ( Sighs )
Eric : You always know what to say , exactly the right thing to , uh , pull everyone together .
Brooke : I am a Logan and a Forrester .
Eric : Yeah , so you are , and you re the best of both worlds .
Brooke : You know as well as I do how difficult it is to be in the middle .
Eric : ( Clears throat )
Brooke : But if there were ever a time for this company and this family to be united , it would be now .
Eric : Mm - hmm . I have to believe everybody wants the same thing , and that s for this company to succeed , and I just -- I just wish that my kids were happier .
Brooke : Rick is . I m just glad we did nt send him off to Europe .
Eric : So am I. It would have been a big mistake . He s doing a good job as president , you know ?
Brooke : Mm - hmm , although it s really difficult for ridge to have him around .
Eric : Well , Rick is a constant reminder of Phoebe s death , so there s still a lot of tension there , but R - Ridge has agreed to work with him . And eventually , I think their relationship will heal .
Steffy : Oh , I wish it did nt have to be like this-- God -- hiding what we feel for each other .
Rick : I know . I talked to your dad yesterday .
Steffy : You did ?
Rick : Mm - hmm . I asked him if there was any chance that he would ever be able to accept me .
Steffy : Well , then what did he say ?
Rick : He said there was no way in hell that was ever going to happen . ( Laughs ) and that he is doing everything in his power to just tolerate my existence . ( Laughs ) look , I tried to reach out to him . I do nt want to keep our relationship a secret forever .
Steffy : Yeah , but my dad s not willing to forgive you .
Rick : No . I do nt think he ever will .
Brooke : Katie , what -- what are you doing ? I thought you went to the Jackie M. preview .
Katie : Oh , Nick does nt want me there .
Brooke : Why not ?
Katie : Clarke Garrison is designing the collection , and I think Nick is afraid that the debut is going to be a bomb . He ca nt afford that . You have no idea how much is riding on this .
Clarke : Now this would make a great opener . I think we should put it at the top .
Jackie : Yeah . Sounds good .
Clarke : Okay .
Jackie : Nicky , where s Katie ?
Nick : She s gone .
Clarke : Well , that was a close call .
Nick : I do nt like doing this to her .
Clarke : Well , there s no turning back now . She s gon na find out sooner or later .
Nick : Everybody at Forrester is gon na know those designs are theirs .
Jackie : I--
Clarke : Well , it s -- it s -- it s showtime . The press will be clamoring for champagne .
Jackie : Make sure there s plenty flowing .
Clarke : You got it .
Jackie : ( Sighs ) Nicky , I know you re troubled by this , but we have to do it . We ve worked so hard to build this company , a company we can both be proud of . Look , whether or not we pull this off and we manage to save Jackie M. or not , we will get through this ... together .
Nick : ( Sighs ) Mom , where s my truck ?
Steffy : ( Sighs ) God , I - I wish ... I wish it did nt have to be like this , that everyone could know how much we love each other .
Steffy : But it ca nt happen . Maybe we just need to give up on this . What s the point ? What s the point of clinging on to something that can never happen ?
Rick : Do you really-- you really want that ?
Steffy : You know I do nt .
Rick : Then why even say it ? Listen to me , if something is worth fighting for , then we are . There always has to be a way .
Stephanie : This is some of your very best work , Eric . There is nt a designer in the business that would nt give their right arm for this collection .
Eric : I just hope this showing is a - a real triumph for Forrester Creations . I really do .
Stephanie : What are you so apprehensive about ?
Eric : It s not just the showing . It s -- it s -- it s that , and it s this attitude that -- that Thorne and Felicia have been giving me , you know ?
Stephanie : Well , honey , they feel slighted . They feel they ve been overlooked by their father .
Eric : Every one of my children have had complete opportunity here at the company , and they know it . There s room enough for everyone .
Stephanie : Eric , Eric , why do nt you try looking at it from their perspective , hmm ? Maybe you could be a little more sensitive ... ( inhales deeply ) as to why they feel what they feel .
Jackie : Oh , my . You need some more champagne . Did I thank you for coming ? Because really , both of you-- do you need more ? A little bit ? You ve got it . I think you re going to have an absolutely fantastic time . I know you will . Just relax . You guys do nt have glasses . I m going to get you one . Thank you , everybody , for coming . Thank you . I need some more champagne , please . Thank you very much . Please , all , just be seated and have a good time .
Jarrett : You know , I just hope that they can pull it off , cause--
Jackie : Jarrett , champagne ?
Jarrett : Uh , I try not to drink on the job .
Jackie : Oh , how boring .
Jarrett : Well , yeah . Yeah . Actually , I - I was wanting to ask about that , because how is it that you re able to hold a champagne reception and debut a new signature line when economic times are so bad ? Rumor has it that Jackie M. is struggling to make its loan payments , and the company could go under .
Jackie : ( Laughs ) The new Jackie M. signature line is going to turn all that around .
Jarrett : Uh , well , with all due respect , Miss Marone , if Clarke Garrison is your designer , we ve all seen over the years what he has to offer , and it s nothing to--
Jackie : ( Laughs ) I have every confidence in our season designer .
Jarrett : Well , uh , yeah , but Mr. Garrison s good , but if you re pinning all your hopes on him ...
Jackie : Might I remind you that Mr. Garrison was schooled by one of fashion s finest icons -- Eric Forrester ? And under my direction , he s blossomed . I guarantee you that these designs will--
Jarrett : Will be on the level of Forrester Creations ?
Jackie : Yes . I personally guarantee you that these designs will have the quality and the flair of a Forrester Original .
Katie : Okay , the press releases for the fashion show are at the copiers . I ve got to go over the schedule with Eric . Wait a second . Did I already do that ? Oh , my God . I ca nt think .
Brooke : ( Sighs )
Katie : What ?
Brooke : Your mind is a million miles away .
Katie : Yeah . Is it that obvious ?
Brooke : I m your sister . I know that faraway look .
Katie : I m just worried about Nick . You have no idea how much he needs this debut to be a success .
Brooke : You both do . You have a future with Nick now , so you both have a tremendous amount at stake .
Katie : I know . That s why I wish I could be there .
Brooke : I know Nick . He s a very proud person . And you re right . He s probably nervous that the show is going to be a failure . But in his heart , he wants you there .
Katie : You think so ?
Brooke : Yeah . I think you should go be with him . He d really appreciate it .
Katie : Really ? Okay . Okay .
Brooke : ( Laughs ) Sure . Why not ?
Katie : All right . Thank you for the good advice .
Brooke : Just let me know how it goes , okay ?
Katie : All right . See you later .
Brooke : Bye .
Nick : Mother , it is going to get ugly when the Forresters see this .
Jackie : But Jackie M. Designs will be saved , and that s all that matters .
Rick : ( Sighs ) Steffy , this is such a mess , but we re gon na find a way through this . I mean , think about it . We never said that this was gon na be easy .
Steffy : Try impossible .
Rick : Steffy , I do not believe in the word Impossible , okay ?
Steffy : You just said my dad would nt accept us .
Rick : I did . Yeah . That is a humongous problem .
Steffy : Hey , he can never know how we feel about each other .
Rick : No , I know that , but it ca nt keep us apart . No one , nothing can keep us apart . Do you hear me when I say that to you ? Do you understand ?
Steffy : Yeah , I hear you . I - I hear you . I want to believe you .
Rick : But you do nt believe me . You do nt trust me .
Steffy : No . Rick ... I love you .
Rick : Do you ?
Steffy : Yeah . I - I love you . I love you , Rick . ( Sighs ) But my dad means so much to me . He does . And I cant -- I ca nt cause him any more pain . I ca nt . I wo nt .
Rick : No , I know . L - listen , I understand that . Look , I know your dad means the world to you . I m very , very sensitive to that . But suppose , just -- just suppose , that we -- we would nt have to deal with him anymore . ( Voices speaking indistinctly )
Jackie : Thank you . Good evening , everybody . My , my , what a handsome crowd we ve gathered here today . Thank you very much for coming to the debut of the new Jackie M. Signature line . May I tell you , you re going to be very surprised and very impressed with our collection , because it s like nothing that Jackie M. Has ever done before ? Today , you are going to witness fashion history , so be prepared to tell the world that Jackie M. Is here to stay ! And without further ado , may I present to you the new Jackie M. Signature line .
Eric : This is perfect .
Brooke : Another Forester Original .
Felicia : One - of - a - kind .
Stephanie : I d almost say it s a work of art .
Eric : Hmm .
Thorne : It s a nice job , Dad . You ve outdone yourself .
Eric : I could nt have done it without all of you .
Brooke : Mm .
Eric : I think it s terrific . It s beautiful . Forrester Creations is back . We re got another hit on our hands . There s nothing like this new collection out there on the market , nothing .
Jackie : Oh ! ( Applause )
Jackie : Nicky , do you hear that ? Do you hear the applause ? They love it . They absolutely love it ! Thank you . Thank you .
Jarrett : Here to support your fiancé , Miss Logan ?
Katie : Ah , yes .
Jarrett : It must be awkward working for the competition .
Katie : I do nt want to miss the show . Excuse me .
Jarrett : Right .
Katie : That looks familiar . ( Applause )
Katie : That looks like a Forrester Original .
Katie : Oh , my God . What is this ? ( Applause )
Katie : What-- what s going on here ? They re Forrester Originals .

### Dialogue:
Di : You are unbelievable . Del , come on . You have nt forgotten why we re here , right ?
Del : I looked away for two seconds . Is it a crime to rest my eyes ?
Di : Oh , you call that rest ? Your eyes were bulging out of their sockets . Del , come on . No more distractions , not until we track down Dixie s little girl .
Tad : Dixie ? Dixie !
Tad : Oh . Thank God . I mean , thank God you re alive .
Zach : Kendall .
Erica : Kendall , Dixie , Julia , me . Your father has toyed with more women s heads than I care to imagine . And so far , I ve been pretty good about keeping quiet about just how evil he is , but not anymore , Josh .
Josh : Erica , you ve been blathering about my dad being corrupt since day one . Do nt even try to act like this is new .
Erica : Yes , Josh , this is new . Josh , your father has just --
Zach : What happened ?
Bianca : Oh --
Zach : Where s my wife ?
Bianca : Where have you been ?
Erica : It s a little late to care now , Zach . Kendall does nt need you anymore .
Bianca : Mother ? She s in the nursery , and she s ok .
Zach : Thank you .
Bianca : Well , that was just mean .
Josh : Well , mean is your mother s area of expertise .
Erica : I was merely telling the truth , and I just told that to Zach . Kendall has a family now . That troublemaker , Zach Slater ? No place in her life for him .
Kendall : I remember you giving a very detailed description of Spike when he was still inside of me .
Ryan : He s going to get there . He will , do nt worry .
Kendall : He inherited some pretty strong genes .
Ryan : Yes , he did . Kendall --
Dixie : He took it .
Tad : He Madden ?
Dixie : Well , while Zach and I were off looking for Madden , he must ve sent somebody in here to raid the room and take all the evidence that I had against him , everything that I brought back from the Regeneration Spa , all the evidence that said that Madden was an anonymous donor over a thousand times over , all the proof of what he did to Erica , everything . It s gone .
Tad : All this time , you were with Slater ?
Dixie : Yes . He was trying to help me find Madden .
Tad : And then what ? How were you going to make him talk after you found him ? Did you or Slater have some kind of plan to get answers about Kate ?
Greg : Buried . Buried alive .
Zach : You re alive . You re here .
Kendall : It s where I belong .
Zach : Maybe he is real . Yeah . The guy that people talk to when no one else is listening . And I do nt know if I really believe in all that stuff , but you re here . What did the doctors say ? Is -- is everything ok ? Are you ok ? Is everything fine ?
Kendall : I m fine . No , I m fine . He looks really small , but he s a tough cookie . So , are you ready ? I would like to introduce you to -- to the other love of my life .
Kendall : Come on .
Zach : Hey , little guy .
Kendall : Zach , this is Spike -- my son .
Josh : Excuse me .
Erica : No , Josh , you re not going anywhere till you tell me where your father is .
Josh : Will you get over my dad already ?
Erica : Josh , your dad brought this on himself .
Josh : What do you want , Erica ? You have nothing on him , so do me a favor -- leave us both alone .
Erica : Josh , your dad attacked me .
Josh : Here we go again .
Erica : Josh , I was in his office , we were arguing , and the next thing I knew , I woke up on a park bench this morning . I had been unconscious . Your dad had grabbed me by the arm and stuck a hypodermic needle in me . He drugged me . I do nt want him to get off scot - free .
Jack : You have a lot of experience at that , do nt you ? Getting off scot - free ? Well , no more . You have hurt my wife for the very last time .
Di : You re supposed to be watching the boat , not the tan lines .
Del : Ok , one two - second distraction , all right ? Even with zero sleep and a shot of the doctor s knockout juice , I ve taken care of every last detail .
Di : You set up the --
Del : Everything . I took care of it all . You still want to give me a hard time ?
Di : I m sorry . I m just so -- I do nt know . The whole thing makes me sick to my stomach .
Del : Yeah , well , we ca nt turn back now .
Dixie : God , I ca nt believe he found everything that I hid in here .
Tad : So , neither you nor Zach had any kind of master plan .
Dixie : I wish I had one now .
Tad : Dixie , it does nt matter . Documents or videos or any kind of information you have that may pressure Madden with exposure -- it s not going to work anymore . It s not going to be enough .
Dixie : Why are you saying that ? Are you giving up ?
Tad : Of course , I m not giving up . What I m saying is this thing has gone too far . Whatever it s going to take to find Kate is going to have to be drastic . It s going to have to be ugly . I m saying I will do anything I have to to find her .
Dixie : Tad , nobody can get the truth out of Madden if he s gone underground .
Greg : Help me ! Hello ? Oh . Hello ! Oh . Can anybody hear me ? Hello ? I m -- I m trapped in here ! Can anybody hear me ?
Greg : Hello ? Can you hear me , anyone ? Hello ?
Zach : Look at you -- already the center of attention . You re your mother s son -- causing so much trouble , huh ? It s all worth it . So come on . Get better , get out of this thing , so we can really stir it up .
Kendall : I m going to have my hands full with you two .
Zach : Your mommy s funny . She thinks that we do nt know each other when I actually I do . I -- I know all your likes and your dislikes . Stick by her because when you need her , she s going to be in your corner .
Bianca : That s true . You can just call it the Kane women lioness instinct . We always stick by our cubs .
Kendall : I got your back , dude . Get bigger , get stronger .
Zach : You have a great son .
Ryan : Thank you .
Julia : Hey . How s it going in here ?
Ryan : Hey . Well , it s going great . Um --
Bianca : Yeah .
Ryan : Yeah , come on in . Join us .
Bianca : We have ourselves a little celebrity here .
Julia : Oh , I know . But actually , Spike s going to need a little personal time with his nurse and , Kendall , you should probably get some rest , too .
Bianca : Ok . Bye - bye , bugaloo .
Ryan : Anyhow , Spike , do me a favor and do nt give Julia too hard a time , ok ?
Julia : Hmm , no way . Spike and me , we re buds .
Ryan : I ll be back as soon as they say I can be . Do nt miss me too much .
Kendall : Think you can hang for a few without me ? Because I m going to hate every second I m away from you . Surprise me when I get back . Get rid of this stupid box and start raising some hell around here . Oh , yeah . By the way , do nt listen to your father . If you want to give Nurse Julia a little grief , I m cool with that .
Julia : Ha - ha .
Kendall : I m kidding . Ok . I ll see you soon , Spikester . I love you . I love you more than I ever dreamed possible .
Greg : Microphone . You ve gone to a lot of trouble . Water ? Energy bars ? Air supply . Surveillance camera . Is this where I m supposed to thank you for your generosity ? Well , obviously you do nt want me to die . Otherwise , you would nt have packed a picnic . Tell me -- what do you want ? What will it take to get me out of here ?
Erica : No , Jack . You have it all wrong . I m furious with Greg . It s Greg I m really angry with . He s not here , so I have been taking it out on Josh . Would you accept my apology , Josh ?
Josh : Sure -- when you re giving it from a padded cell .
Jack : Oh . Erica , why are you always defending that punk ?
Erica : I was nt defending him . He just does nt deserve to be attacked , not this time . You got my message ? That Kendall came out of her coma ? Is nt it wonderful ?
Jack : Yeah . It s terrific news . Sweetheart , I m so sorry that I could nt be with you during all that . I m a little concerned , though . I mean , what s -- what s all this about you and Greg ?
Erica : Well , I want to hear about Lily . What s the latest ? Good news , I hope .
Jack : Mostly . Mostly good news . I mean , she -- she s back home . She s safe .
Erica : You found her ?
Jack : Yeah .
Erica : That s wonderful .
Jack : Huh . You re still avoiding my question .
Erica : No , I m not . I just do nt think it s important -- I mean , not when we have our girls back .
Jack : And thank God we do . I do nt know what you re hiding from me , Erica , but you re trying so hard not to tell me something . The problem is I already know so much . So , please , just , out with it ? What did Greg Madden do ?
Tad : Madden is nothing if not a megalomaniac . He s not going to stay underground for long .
Dixie : This is different , Tad . He s not just going to lay low for a couple of months and wait for everything to blow over . He knows that we know all of his secrets . I mean , how many people in town know that Josh is Erica Kane s biological son , for instance ? Right -- you , me , Zach , Erica .
Tad : My father , Jeff .
Dixie : Right ? And how many people in town -- I think everybody -- knows that our daughter , Kate , is alive , and Madden is the only person who knows where to find her ? Look , he is going to disappear completely and never come up for air .
Tad : I m not quitting .
David : When are you going to wake up , Dixie ? Martin could nt find the sun if it spun out of the sky and landed on his head . I m the one you should be coming to . I m the one that s going to give you back your baby .
Ryan : Kendall did good . Huh . She did , she made an -- an incredible little boy . You re looking the wrong way . The star is right over there . That way .
Bianca : Ryan , I was watching you when Kendall introduced Spike to Zach . Spike s -- Spike s ok now . He s here . Kendall s safe , she s out of the woods . So I was kind of wondering , are you really going to be able to stand by and keep things to yourself or are you going to tell Kendall the truth ? That you re in love with her ?
Kendall : So , Ryan said that you never once left my side . The entire time I was in the coma , you were here .
Zach : Where the hell am I going ? I ve got no friends .
Kendall : Well , that s true . But when I woke up , you were nt here . So where were you ?
Zach : Wow . You actually did that . You did what I told you to do . And you re never going to do that again , so let s just take a moment .
Kendall : Wait -- what ? Wait , hold on . I m lost , I m lost now .
Zach : When I left , I asked you to wake up and to get better so you can yell at me and ask me where I was when I come back .
Kendall : Well , I do nt want to yell at you , but I m asking .
Zach : I wanted to be here . I wanted to be the first face you saw when you woke up . Well , I m here now .
Kendall : Hmm . You re real . This is -- this is real .
Zach : Do nt ever doubt that .
Kendall : There s so many things going on in my head . I know my baby is fighting for his life , and I know that I m lucky to be alive . But I m still not sure about some stuff .
Zach : Well , maybe I can fill you in -- on the details .
Kendall : Right . Ok . Well , I -- I recall some sort of wedding , so -- oh , are we married ? We re married -- no ? Yes ?
Zach : Wife , mine . Wow .
Kendall : That s what I thought . Ah . Cool .
Zach : No , it s very cool .
Kendall : Mr. and Mrs. Slater .
Zach : Hmm .
Kendall : Forever , for good this time . So , what s with the face ?
Zach : You may not want to stay married to me when you find out what I ve done .
Greg : Om . Om .
Altered voice : Rise and shine , Dr. Madden .
Greg : Who are you ? What do you want from me ? Erica ? Is that you ? I do nt know how you did this . You must ve got someone to help you .
Altered voice : Comfortable , Doctor ?
Greg : I want out of here .
Altered voice : The sooner you work with me , the sooner you ll be set free .
Greg : I demand you get me out of here .
Altered voice : The timing is up to you . Once I have Dixie Martin s daughter , you re a free man .
Greg : Tad ? Oh . Tad ? You honestly think you ll get away with this ?
Tad : Hayward , if you do nt have the good sense to get out of --
David : Who messed up your room , Dixie ?
Tad : This room in 10 seconds , I swear I m going to rip your misshapen head off your fat neck .
Dixie : Tad , would you just stop ? David , please leave .
David : Is this your handiwork , detective ? What happened , hmm ? Could nt find Kate stashed under the bed , Madden hidden in a sock drawer ?
Tad : Take a good look around this room . Whatever I decide to do about my daughter is my business , not yours , but I ll guarantee you one thing -- if you get in my way at all , you re going to be sifting through debris looking for what s left of your teeth .
Greg : Dixie s daughter is gone , because Dixie wanted it that way . She signed on the bottom line , she signed away all or any rights to that little girl . And if you want to do what s best for that child , you ll give up this ridiculous search and leave that baby alone .
Altered voice : Name , address , phone number , zip code , to start .
David : Did nt Madden bail on Pine Valley , taking the answers to finding Kate with him , because you ran him out of town ?
Tad : As usual , you re a moron , and as usual , you do nt have clue one as to what s going on here .
David : I m talking about you being a walking grenade , Tad , wiping out any evidence you come into contact with .
Dixie : Stop it ! Will the two of you just stop it already .
Greg : Stop -- Tad , Zach , who I -- whoever I have to thank for this .
Altered voice : DNA . The tests have to be conclusive proof it s really Kate . Once I have proof , you can go .
Greg : Ok . Ok , I understand . Really , I do . But first , I want you to hear my side of this .
Dixie : Look , David , the minute Madden told me that he would never revoke Kate s adoption , when he said that I would never get my baby back , I should have come here .
David : That s ok , Dixie . We ll fix that --
Dixie : Not to you , David -- to Tad . For God s sake , he s Kate s father .
David : That s what I m trying to tell you . I can help you in ways that Tad ca nt .
Dixie : No , you ca nt . I m sorry , David , but you ca nt . Look , I would really appreciate it if you would just leave , please , now . Good - bye .
David : I am going to be the one to find that baby . I will put Kate back in your arms .
Greg : You brought me here to toy with me . You do nt want me to die . You ve given me food and water . You re not going to kill me . You have to remember I ve got a heart condition . So if I have a heart attack , you wo nt get any of the answers to your questions . See , you re never going to find this child of Dixie s .
Altered voice : Give up the information . The longer you wait , the longer you drown in your own filth .
Josh : You like margaritas ?
Woman : Oh , yeah .
Josh : All right , listen . I m going to be hanging out right over there . Why do nt you come by later . All right ?
Di : We need your help , Josh .
Josh : Listen , if this has anything to do with my father , forget you even saw me , all right ?
Zach : I -- I risked your life to save Spike s , because that s what I believed you would ve wanted . Because that s what you told me on the boat -- you would give up your life to save your son . So I took you at your word . Man , I hope I did the right thing .
Kendall : You heard me . You listened to me , and you remembered . You may be the only man who has ever truly listened to me .
Ryan : Zach makes Kendall very happy . He gets her and -- and believe me , I ve seen Kendall happy , but I have nt seen her happy quite like this . You know , next time -- next time that you go in to see her , I want you to take a good look at her face , and you ll see what I mean . She s in a very good place right now -- and not only because of that little miracle right over there .
Bianca : So you do nt want her to know how you feel ?
Ryan : She knows how I feel . She knows . She knows that I love her . She knows that I love her , because she s the -- she s the mother of my son .
Bianca : But you do nt just love her as the mother of your son , Ryan . It s a lot more than that .
Ryan : And I told her that . I sat at her bedside , and I told her . I told her that -- that I m in love with her .
Bianca : I do nt think she remembers that .
Ryan : Huh .
Bianca : She was in a coma .
Ryan : Yeah , well , it s probably a good thing that she does nt . Ok ? The only way that I m going to show Kendall my love is to be the best father I can be to that little guy right over there , and I can be , and I will be . What ?
Bianca : Nothing .
Ryan : No , what ?
Bianca : No .
Ryan : Seriously , if there s something you want to say , just , you know , say it .
Bianca : Honestly , Ryan , you do nt want to know .
Ryan : Say it . Spit it out , Bianca . There s obviously something . Go ahead .
Bianca : You re in love with my sister , and you know that she s married and heart and soul with another guy , and you say that you re fine with that , that you can accept it , that -- that you ll get over it . But how can you get over Kendall when she s going to be in your face every single day ? You guys have a kid together now . You re going to see Kendall more now than you have in the past couple of years . And you re not going to want to miss a single moment with Spike -- the first smile , first bottle , first steps --
Ryan : Yeah , birthday parties , swimming lessons -- yes , yeah . It s going to be great .
Bianca : Kendall is going to be there for all of that . Is that really going to be great or is it going to be torture ?
Ryan : I know what you re saying , Bianca . I understand your point . I know that every time I go over to see Spike , and Kendall is sitting there with Zach right beside her -- you know , it could be me . It could -- it could be me sharing a life with her , yes . And every first that I have , every first that we have with Spike -- Kendall , Spike , myself -- it s not going to be like a real family . She will experience that with Zach . And I could let that eat me alive . Or I could realize how outrageously lucky that I am because I have -- I have a little boy who -- who needs me and who -- who honestly I love more than my mind could possibly comprehend . And he would nt be here if it was nt for Kendall , so I just -- I just want to be thankful for the time I get to spend with them , that s it , instead of resenting the time that I do nt . I just want to think of them as a gift . Kendall and Spike -- they re a gift . That s what they are .
Kendall : I am so lucky , Zach , because I have you on my side fighting for me . My son may never fully understand the lengths you went to to bring him into this world . But I know , and I ll never forget .
Zach : I did it for you , because I love you .
Kendall : I ve never stopped loving you . Even when I pretended I hated you , I loved you . And right now , I have never loved you more .
Erica : And the next thing I knew , I -- I woke up on one of those benches in the park covered with newspapers , and I have no memory of how or when I got there .
Jack : Well , I ve heard enough . I m calling Derek .
Erica : Oh , no . Jack , you ca nt do that .
Jack : What , are you kidding me ? Greg Madden drugged you . We have to bring the police in on this , honey .
Erica : No , Jack . If I can get away with never seeing that man again , I will do anything . Drop it , Jack . I mean it .
Di : The mother / child bond -- Josh , you ca nt spit on that . You ca nt just blow this off . My sister was separated from her child because of your father , and I ca nt expect Dixie just to suck it up and move on . You ca nt , either .
Josh : Look , I do nt know how many times or different ways you want me to tell you this . I have no idea where the kid is .
Del : That is such bull .
Josh : Look , if my dad has some secret that he s keeping from your sister , he never shared it with me .
Jack : So you just want to let him skate . Honey , he could ve killed you . And you just want to look the other way ?
Erica : Jack , the sooner I forget I ever knew Greg Madden , the better off I ll be .
Josh : My father is gone . I do nt know where he is . I do nt know when he s coming back if he s coming back . I have no idea what he s done to Dixie if anything . All I know is that I am so over my dad and everything related to him that as far as I m concerned , I do nt even have a father anymore .
Greg : That little girl , the baby that Dixie chose to give away -- she s happy . She s with people she s considered her parents since she could form her first thought . Do nt ask me to take her away from the only people that she has ever loved . It s cruel . It would be selfish . Tell me you understand that .
Bianca : You re a much bigger person than I am .
Ryan : Hmm . I doubt that .
Bianca : Well , you seem to be handling this whole situation with Kendall pretty well .
Ryan : I do nt really have another choice , do I ? I have to . Have a little faith .
Bianca : I should , should nt I ?
Ryan : Mm - hmm .
Bianca : Life is good , a real gift .
Ryan : And that little guy right in there , my new lucky charm . It s interesting , because he was supposed to be Kendall s gift to Greenlee ; and the way things have worked out , he s become Kendall s gift to me . I would -- I would love Spike no matter who his mother was , but the fact that a part of -- a part of him is Kendall and that she gave me this total treasure to share my life with , I look at Spike and I guess I -- I finally know what I was born for , thanks to Kendall . All Kendall .
Erica : Jack , tell me that you re going to drop this . Tell me that you ll forget about Greg Madden . Tell me that he s a thing of the past .
Jack : He s a maniac is what he is , Erica . God knows what could ve happened to you while you were passed out on that park bench . Look , you want me to just forget about this , but I m sorry , sweetheart . I love you . I ca nt just forget about this . I m going to call Derek and have him put an APB out on Dr. Greg Madden .
Tad : Dixie , I m going to Madden s spa on that island you told me about . Now , look , there have got to be records or files , and even if they re coded , I can break a code . At least I can come back with some kind of clue .
Dixie : Do nt you think he s covered his tracks ? He knows we know about that place .
Tad : We are going to find our daughter . What ? What s wrong ?
Dixie : Nothing . Um -- you said we . Thank you for that .
Greg : Can you hear me ? Hello ? Answer me . Oh . Is this thing working ? Hello ? Damn it ! Where have you gone ? Oh . Can you hear me ? Oh .
Babe ( to Josh ) : Leave now or you eat the next one .
Julia ( to Jamie ) : I guess I do owe you dinner .
Jamie ( to Julia ) : Well , what would you like in return ?
Ryan ( to Kendall ) : Trust me , you want to let Zach take care of this , ok ? J.R. is your worst enemy .

### Dialogue:
Thomas : I remember it all now ... looking into your eyes so deep , and then on the island , in the cave ... we made love ... we made love ... we made love ...
Ridge : Logan ? You did nt even realize I was here . I worry about you . There s more going on here than you re admitting . Is there anything I can do to help ?
Eric : Oh , Marcus , no , Marcus , I appreciate the call , but , no , you did not let me down . Now I m -- I m just glad to hear from you now . ( Chuckles ) Are you excited ? Oh , you must be . It s a wonderful day for you , my boy . Of course it is . Now who s there with you now ?
Stephanie : You keep your end of the bargain . I ll keep mine . You ll get my shares . Your parents will get back together , and you just remember what happened on the island .
Thomas : Even though it s not true .
Stephanie : You say something often enough , it becomes the truth . You and Brooke had sex . Three generations-- absolutely amazing .
Eric : All right , I ll talk to you soon . Bye .
Stephanie : So how s the new father ?
Eric : Well , I m not certain , uh , anything s had a chance to sink in yet .
Stephanie : Well , that should nt be a surprise . For goodness sakes , 24 hours ago , he did nt know he was going to be a father .
Eric : The important thing now is that there s this , uh , new little life who needs her father s love , and Marcus is ready to give it to her . Of course , as for Amber and her loony mother , this lie will undoubtedly come back at them . All lies do .
Taylor : I had a - a late session , and I just wanted to see if Thomas was here , but is office is dark .
Eric : No , actually , he left early . He left a while ago .
Taylor : Oh .
Stephanie : Will we do ?
Taylor : This has been a very ... interesting day .
Stephanie : Is that ... is that Brooke s wedding ring ?
Taylor : She asked me to keep it as a reminder to love Ridge the way she is nt able to . She s stepping aside so your son can have lasting happiness with me .
Thomas : ( Sighs )
Thomas : ( Sighs ) It happened , Brooke .
Brooke : No . No .
Thomas : After we ate the berries , we made love ... we made love ... we made love ...
Eric : What does that mean , Brooke is stepping aside ?
Stephanie : Well , perhaps she realizes the marriage is over now ... ( Stammers ) Because of everything that s happened , you know .
Taylor : Well , quite frankly , I - I was kind of surprised . I really expected her to not be so gracious , to be a little more self - serving , but something s different . She s ... ( Sighs ) She s a different person now , at least in one important way .
Stephanie : Well , maybe the conversations with James Warwick have brought about a change . I mean , she s not capable of doing that on her own .
Eric : I thought you were impressed with her creating this foundation in your name and giving up , uh , such a large amount of her personal assets .
Stephanie : Well , creating a foundation and leaving the company is one thing , you know . Walking away from a marriage-- that s something entirely different , I mean , if that s what she s doing .
Eric : Why would she give Taylor this ring if she was nt doing that ?
Stephanie : Well , I do nt know . Maybe it s some sort of grand gesture . Maybe she thinks that Ridge will see her as being selfless , and she can turn the whole thing to her advantage , you know ?
Taylor : No , I ... I do nt think that s what she s doing , Stephanie , and neither would you if you had seen her today .
Brooke : I did nt expect to see you .
Ridge : How is R.J. doing ?
Brooke : He s good . He misses you . He s spending the night at Matthew s tonight .
Ridge : I miss him , too . I guess I should have called first .
Brooke : I ll tell him you came to see him .
Ridge : Hope and Liam on the way back from Big Bear ?
Brooke : Yes . ( Sighs ) And they are floating on air . Hope was praying that that baby would nt be Liam s . Now she feels like a miracle happened . I ve been praying for a miracle , too , for you and me .
Ridge : This miracle that you ve been praying for--
Brooke : I should nt have mentioned it . It s just -- looking at Hope and her whole situation , how everything seemed so impossible up until a few hours ago when she found out that it was just a manipulation , just a big lie that almost tore her and Liam apart . I know that our situation is different . We re being pushed apart because of something I did that was very shameful . And your mother was right about me all these years . That s why she wanted you with Taylor and not with me .
Ridge : You and Taylor are two very different women , Logan . You ve both brought very unique and wonderful things to my life .
Brooke : But I brought a lot of pain , a lot of heartache , a lot of scandal . Taylor never did that . She was always there for you , Ridge , always by your side . And that s why we were at odds . But not anymore .
Ridge : I do nt understand .
Brooke : I asked Taylor to come here today , because there s something that I wanted to tell her , something ... that she needed to know . But I was nt sure she was going to come .
Ridge : But she did ?
Brooke : I just feel bad for everything that I ve done to her-- all the pain that I ve brought into her life . She really did nt deserve it . All she wanted was to be with you and to be with her children . She loves you , Ridge . She always brought you serenity and brought you peace and she will again . She can be the woman that you deserve . She can be faithful to you . She can be loyal .
Ridge : Logan . Logan , come on .
Brooke : I made a mockery out of our vows and the ring that you gave me , what it symbolized . I gave my ring to Taylor .
Ridge : What ?
Brooke : Not for her to wear , but as a reminder to love you the way that I could nt .
Thomas : ( Sighs )
Thomas : ( Sighs )
Thomas : ( Sighs )
Brooke : Paris .
Thomas : It s a dream come true , is nt it ?
Brooke : Mm - hmm .
Thomas : We could nt have picked a more perfect place .
Brooke : We are looking forward to answering all of your questions .
Thomas : About Taboo and , uh , whatever .
Brooke : This man is as creative and as talented as anybody I know . And , yes , he is irresistible .
Brooke : Today was a success , a tremendous success .
Thomas : This is all happening because of you .
Brooke : No , no , this is because of you-- your talent , your unique eye for design , your passion .
Thomas : ( Sighs )
Brooke : Of course Thomas would nt lie ... would nt lie ... would nt lie ... You say it happened . I believe you , Thomas . I believe you , Thomas . I believe you , Thomas .
Taylor : You re not very subtle , you know ?
Stephanie : ( Chuckles ) I just wanted to speak to you alone for a moment . Eric s always easy about that sort of thing .
Taylor : Yes , but he worries about you , as do all of us , especially me .
Stephanie : Brooke continues to amaze me and surprise me .
Taylor : I never thought I d see the day that she would ask me to go and be happy and be there for Ridge and actually mean it .
Stephanie : I m sure she never thought she d say something like that . Amazing , is nt it ? All these years , she s always been able to get him to forgive her for anything and everything , but not this time . She s not gon na be able to hurt anybody again that we love . The family s safe . Tom is safe now .
Taylor : Thomas , oh !
Thomas : Mom w - what are you doing here ?
Taylor : Hi . I was just on my way home from the office , and I - I wanted to stop by and to see you . Um , you look like you just went to the gym .
Thomas : Uh , just a jog to clear my head . I ...
Taylor : Are you okay ? Thomas , are you all right ?
Thomas : Yeah , yeah . I m -- I m fine . Why would nt I be ?
Taylor : Well , I do nt know . I ... ( Sighs ) You just said you had to go clear your head and , um , now you re back at work . What -- what -- is it something-- something going on ?
Thomas : No , no , um ...
Taylor : Is -- is everything okay with you and your father ? I know things have been a little rough .
Thomas : Yeah , Dad s , uh , he -- he s struggling . Uh , maybe if I would have kept my mouth shut--
Stephanie : But you did nt , did you ? Look , Brooke has given your mother her wedding ring and her blessing she wants your mother and father to be together . She wants them to be happy . She s had to face some very harsh things about herself recently , but she s doing the right thing . Things usually work out the way they re supposed to , you know ? Sometimes you have to help them along a little bit , but that s all right your mother and father are to-- together again . And look at that sparkle in your mother s eyes .
Taylor : ( Chuckles )
Stephanie : I m so happy for you , Taylor .
Taylor : Mm .
Stephanie : And I know your son is , too .
Ridge : I want to be able to forgive you . I need to forgive you . I just do nt know how . I keep telling myself there were extenuating circumstances . Otherwise , it never would have happened . In my heart , I believe that . I just ca nt seem to get beyond it .
Brooke : I do nt know how I could have done what-- what did , and then how I just blocked it out because I was too ashamed to face it .
Ridge : ( Sighs )
Brooke : I look at you , and I see the pain that I ve caused , and I m the reason . I cost us everything , and it does nt matter how many foundations I start , or how many people I help . I m not gon na be able to change that . I m not gon na be able to erase those images from your mind , and I m not gon na be able to -- to get you to see me differently or for me to see myself differently . I am not going to challenge this divorce . I just want you to be with the woman that is most deserving of you , and that would be Taylor . That is where you belong . That s where you ve always belonged .
Stephanie : What really brought you back here this evening ?
Thomas : Grandma , I told you . I forgot something I needed .
Stephanie : Some sketches ?
Thomas : ( Sighs )
Stephanie : Well , Eric and I could have brought those to the house for you .
Thomas : No , that s all right . I did nt want you to go out of your way .
Stephanie : Your mother looks really happy .
Thomas : Yep . It s not every day Brooke gives her wedding ring to her archrival .
Stephanie : A very gracious gesture .
Thomas : Based on a lie . You re feeling guilty , too , Grandma . You ve got ta be , I mean , after everything Brooke s been doing .
Stephanie : Look , this is nt easy for me . I do nt like lying . But in this case , the end justifies the means . Besides ... ( Sighs ) She and I have a history you do nt understand and do nt know anything about . So many people hurt , so much heartbreak . But now your mother and father have a real chance , and that s happened because you ve kept silent . I know it is nt easy , but we ve started down this road , Tom , and we ca nt turn back . You do understand that .
Ridge : We re getting completely ahead of ourselves here . Look , yes , I ve moved out . We re living apart . But -- but anything beyond that--
Brooke : I already spoke to Connor Davis , told him to make the divorce as quick and painless as possible . I ll agree to anything .
Ridge : Why would you speak to your lawyer without first discussing this with me ?
Brooke : Ridge , I think we both know where this was headed ever since you found out what happened between Thomas and me on that island . It s not like I want to be without you I just do nt want to cause you any more pain , and do nt expect you to wait around while I try to become the person that you deserve when that person is already there waiting for you .
Ridge : Logan , come on . Stop with this .
Brooke : It took what happened with Thomas and a sickening realization that I could actually ... ( Sighs ) I m gon na have to live with that for the rest of my life . But you do nt have to , Ridge . You can heal . You can heal yourself . Yon heal your family . ( Sighs ) Phoebe is gone and Thomas is suffering . He s not the man that he used to be , and that is my fault . I want you to be there for Thomas and for Steffy and for Taylor . ( Sighs ) I do nt want to bring you any more pain . And I love you enough to know that I need to do what s right , given what I ve done . Reunite your family . Marry Taylor .

### Dialogue:
Maya : You and Caroline talked .
Rick : Yes .
Maya : About ... ? Okay . Forget it . I do nt want to know .
Rick : Maya --
Maya : No . No . It s okay . We re here . We re together . But not for much longer .
Eric : Madison is finalizing everything as we speak .
Ridge : And you re gon na be lecturing at design schools . Which ones ?
Eric : Here you are . Pretty impressive list , actually . Although it s not all work . My brother John has seen to that .
Ridge : Uh - huh . And this whole trip was his idea .
Eric : Yeah , well , apparently , our fishing expedition earlier this year was not enough of an adventure for him , so he wants to kick it up a notch .
Ridge : So what are you doing ? You going snowboarding ? What ?
Eric : Actually , that s a little more tame than his original idea , which was skydiving in the Pyrenees . Anyway , it feels like a pretty good time to be leaving . Rick s settling in with his CEO job , and his marriage to Caroline is back on track . I do nt think there s gon na be any problems . Do you ?
Ridge : Hey , you know how I feel about it . It s ridiculous . It s done . It s over .
Eric : Do nt do anything to undermine him while I m gone , all right ?
Ridge : Well , you re gon na be missed , Dad .
Eric : I m sorry how things have happened with you and Katie . There any chance the two of you , uh ...
Ridge : No .
Caroline : I m sorry . I can come back .
Eric : No , no , that s okay . You two have work to do . I need to check some things with Madison . I ll be right back .
Ivy : Yeah , I could nt believe it , either , at first .
Liam : I -- I mean , Rick and Maya kissing ? Supposedly , he had broken it off with her .
Ivy : Yeah , and I kept thinking that there has to be some kind of explanation , but then when I confronted Rick --
Liam : Okay . What did -- what did Rick say , specifically ?
Ivy : He said that Maya was having a tough time with the breakup , and he was just helping her get over it .
Liam : So , like a one last goodbye kiss kind of thing , or ... ?
Ivy : Yeah , and I told him I was nt buying it , and then that s when he told me I need to forget what I saw ... or else .
Deacon : Your mother makes a lot of sense .
Quinn : Hope needs you now . You need each other . Go to her .
Wyatt : Even though I remind her of what we ve lost . Every time she sees me , she sees you .
Deacon : Wyatt , I think we can all agree that your mother did nt use the best judgment going over there that day . Quinn will be the first to admit it . But here s what s important . Right now , you have to do everything you can to help Hope heal and to help yourself . You got to go to her .
Quinn : Before Liam beats you to it .
Deacon : Quinn , come on .
Quinn : What ? I m not attacking Liam . I just -- I just do nt want him to get to Hope before Wyatt can .
Deacon : You know , I bet your old man would let you take the Spencer jet . If you left now , you d be there in time to have breakfast with Hope tomorrow morning .
Quinn : Go to her , Wyatt . She needs to know that you re there for her --
Wyatt : Mom , just stop , okay ? I heard you . You guys are right . My wife and I have a lot to resolve , and we will . But first , there s something I need to do .
Ivy : For what it s worth , I think this is more about Rick lashing out , because he s hurt about what Caroline did , rather than any feelings for Maya , which I know does nt make it right .
Liam : But do you ... do you think that he s still seeing her ?
Ivy : All I know is that when I confronted Maya ... she was nt backing down . She kept going on about how Rick and she are gon na be the next big power couple of Forrester . Meanwhile --
Liam : Meanwhile , my cousin has no idea what s going on behind her back .
Caroline : You and Katie ... it s over ?
Ridge : Yeah . It s okay . We re both okay .
Caroline : So , who ... ?
Ridge : Katie ended it .
Caroline : Because of you and me ? Because of what happened ?
Ridge : She just felt that our relationship ... had run its course . But , hey , I m -- I m happy you guys are working it out , you and Rick . I m happy for both of you .
Maya : Okay , Rick . What is it ?
Rick : Nothing s changed . Our plans , everything is exactly the same .
Maya : But you said -- the way you were talking --
Rick : It s the pressure of waiting on Dad to sign the papers , pretending with Caroline , and Ivy . I just do nt know how much longer I m gon na be able to keep this up .
Liam : Okay . Is there any way -- I mean , any way at all -- that we could be wrong about this ?
Ivy : It s just , he was so defensive . And he kept going on about how Caroline cheated on him with the man who treated his mother like dirt for so long . You know , I really feel , if she cheated on him with any other man , he would have forgiven Caroline by now .
Liam : I get that he s hurting and why . I mean , I almost feel for the guy . But ... Caroline does not deserve this . She loves him . She wants the marriage to work . And how is he repaying his wife ? By playing her ?
Caroline : You really mean that ?
Ridge : Yeah , I do . I m happy .
Caroline : Thanks . Yeah , things are -- things are ... good .
Ridge : Good . That s good . Because , hey , if they re not , you know , I will ...
Caroline : Rick s just ... you know , he s -- he s really busy being CEO Eric put a lot of faith in him , you know , and he does nt -- he does nt want to let him down .
Ridge : Yeah , no , that s the best way to lose a CEO Position . I -- I know . Trust me . But , hey , he s doing a good job here in the office , and ... and with you at home .
Maya : I realize how hard it is for you to keep up this charade 24/7 , especially when you re at home . But you have to stick to the plan .
Rick : I know . It s Caroline . She ... she s talking about having a family .
Maya : What ?
Rick : She senses something s off .
Maya : And you -- you slept with her ?
Rick : No .
Maya : But you wanted to . That s it .
Rick : What I want is to have irrevocable control as CEO , so you and I could go public before we re found out .
Maya : Well , there s only one person who can ruin that . You re worried about Ivy .
Ivy : It is taking everything in you right now to stop going to speak to Rick , is nt it ?
Liam : Well ... give me a reason I should nt .
Ivy : Because I could end up jobless and on the street if Rick finds out that I ve told you .
Liam : No , no , no . He would nt dare .
Ivy : Okay . Well , then , just think about Caroline . Think about how devastated she ll be . If there is any chance that Rick is gon na do the right thing , she could be spared in all this .
Liam : Is that what you re hoping for ?
Ivy : Yes . Yeah , I just -- I want to believe that , even when people make stupid choices , they still have the ability to turn things around and , you know , fix things for themselves and for the people that they re hurting . Maybe that sounds naive ...
Liam : No . No , it does nt . No , it sounds like somebody who understands what love and forgiveness are all about .
Ivy : Hmm .
Liam : Wyatt .
Wyatt : I need to talk to you , bro . It s about Hope .
Deacon : Please tell me that you re not calling Wyatt .
Quinn : I just want to see if he s okay .
Deacon : Is nt it enough that he stopped by , that he s -- he s actually speaking to you again ?
Quinn : I m so afraid that I almost lost him for good this time , and I still might if he loses Hope .
Deacon : If my daughter and your son are meant to be --
Quinn : They are meant to be together . Hope is the -- the love of Wyatt s life . He is devoted to her . Losing this child does nt change that . He just -- he needs to go and find her , and he needs to remind her of that , of everything that they meant to each other . And then ... with a little bit of time ... they can try to have another child .
Ivy : Okay . Um , I m gon na go . I m gon na let you two talk . But I ll -- I ll call you later .
Liam : All right .
Ivy : Unless you call me first .
Wyatt : Have you heard from her ?
Liam : No .
Wyatt : No e - mails , no texts , nothing ?
Liam : Wyatt , what s going on ?
Wyatt : Hope asked for some time and some space , and I m trying to respect that . But each day that passes , I feel like we re drifting further apart , and I ca nt let that happen . I -- I m going to Italy . Right now .
Rick : I can only keep Ivy at bay for so long . Once her conscience kicks in --
Maya : She ll blab to Eric , and all hell will break loose .
Rick : And Dad will definitely take my CEO position away . After this , I might not even be president .
Maya : We ca nt let that happen . You have worked too hard for this . We have worked too hard for this .
Rick : You re right . I m gon na go to Forrester right now . I m gon na get my dad to sign those papers . Then we ll deal with everything else once my CEO position is safe .
Maya : Good luck . I have all the confidence in you in the world .
Ridge : I know it s none of my business , but , I mean , you d mentioned having a family before .
Caroline : What ?
Ridge : Are nt you and Rick gon na have kids ? I know he s busy , but , I mean , it s ... I do nt want to make you feel uncomfortable . I was ...
Caroline : No , you re -- you re ... you re not .
Ridge : I ve already told you how beautiful and talented I think you are . I just ... I think you d make a terrific mother .
Deacon : Do you know how proud I am of you ?
Quinn : For what ?
Deacon : For giving your son some advice and then stepping away . Now , you keep it up , you might actually win reformed mother of the year . Then again ...
Rick : Dad , she lied to me . She snuck off with Ridge .
Eric : Oh , she just made a mistake . That s all . She got out of control for a while . She s apologized for that . She s asked for your forgiveness , and I suggest you give it to her .
Rick : Why should I ?
Eric : Because she s your wife . And if you do nt reconcile , I ll fire you as CEO .
Liam : Bro , listen --
Wyatt : No , no , no . I have made up my mind . Hope and I lost a child -- a boy that we both wanted . Instead , she s there , and I m here . And how do we even begin to come back from that if we re not together ? And I need to say some things to her , and we both need to say some things to each other to heal , and I ca nt let this be the end of our marriage . I - I wo nt . I will not let this be the end of our marriage .
Liam : Can I say something now ? First of all , we re family . I know we ve been at each other s throats since the moment we found out we were brothers , but you forget , Wyatt -- Wyatt , I know what it s like to lose a child . I know that emptiness that consumes you . So whatever ... whatever you feel you need to do ... you have my support . You and Hope . You have my support .
Maya : No Ridge ?
Caroline : What do you want , Maya ?
Maya : Just hear there are big things going down around here .
Caroline : Mm - hmm . Who told you that ?
Maya : Well , I may be the discarded girlfriend , but I m still on the payroll . What happens at Forrester happens to me , too .
Caroline : Nothing big is happening at Forrester . Rick would ve told me . Something else ?
Maya : I wo nt pretend I do nt miss Rick -- a lot -- but I m happy he s CEO . He may not be a world - renowned designer like Ridge , wowing and surprising on the runway , but Rick knows exactly what he s doing .
Rick : Snowboarding ? Seriously ?
Eric : Apparently , your uncle John has a death wish . I , on the other hand , prefer to spend my time in front of a roaring fire with a hot toddy in one hand --
Rick : And a snow bunny in the other , huh ?
Eric : Yeah , actually , I was gon na say my lecture notes , but I like your idea better . So , seriously , son , what do you think ?
Rick : Are you kidding ? The timing could nt be more perfect . Forrester s profits are soaring , Caroline and I are a tight team . If ever there was a time for you to go away ... unless , of course , you re worried that I wo nt be able to handle things while you re gone .
Eric : I have every confidence in your leadership skills . So does everyone .
Rick : Everyone except for Ridge .
Eric : He s being supportive , is nt he ?
Rick : He is . For now . But , you know , at least that s what he wants everyone to believe , especially you . I m not naive . Given the way that Ridge has felt about me , he s just biding his time , the way he made a play at my wife . But this time , he s gon na be even more calculating . He s gon na wait till you re in Europe before he starts to undermine my authority .
Eric : Look , Rick , I do nt think any of that s true .
Rick : Yes , Dad ! He s gon na sabotage my decisions . He s gon na turn this place into chaos . He s gon na make it seem as if I m over my head . And the moment you return , he s gon na fill your head with that garbage , just like he always does .
Eric : Rick , I m telling you --
Rick : No , I ve heard it a million times -- you do nt play favorites . You care , you believe in me just as much as you do Ridge .
Eric : I do .
Rick : Then show me . I came to you once before , and you said that you would think about it . This , Dad , is my security . Make it official . Make it to where I m able to choose when I want to step down from CEO , but more importantly , show me that you care about me as much as you care about Ridge ... that it s not just words . Dad , please sign these papers .

### Dialogue:
Victor : Nice of you to meet me , my sweetheart .
Abby : Well , you did nt have to leave Nikki . I could have come back to the house .
Victor : Well , I did nt want to take a chance and wake her up , okay ? So , besides , this -- this wo nt take long .
Abby : Is this about what happened to her tonight ?
Victor : I need your help .
Avery : Hi . I just came from Milwaukee .
Leslie : Well , I hope you had a nice trip .
Avery : Yeah , uh , Leslie , a lot of things make sense now after speaking with my client .
Leslie : And it involves me ?
Avery : Took me too long to figure this out . I could not find his two children . It s like they disappeared off the grid .
Leslie : No one just disappears .
Avery : Well , but they did . And clearly they had help , because they ve been hidden for the last 12 years , and then Gus showed me an old , tattered photo of his son and daughter , Davis and Valerie .
Leslie : Avery .
Avery : He is your father , is nt he ? Your real name is Valerie Rogan .
Leslie : You ve got to leave this alone .
Avery : Why ? Leave it alone ? There s an innocent man in jail for something he did nt do .
Leslie : Please ... leave this case alone , Avery . I m begging you . Or you ll destroy the lives of two people -- mine and my brother s .
Adam : [ Sighs ]
Sharon : Ca nt work ?
Adam : Too busy trying to figure out how R & D is gon na run without you .
Sharon : Oh , I m sure you have a succession plan already in place and you have half a dozen candidates that are ready to step in as my replacement .
Adam : Yes , I have names on a list , but none of them are going to be able to replace you .
Sharon : What about Charles from Baylor ? Or that V.P. from marketing -- what s her name ?
Adam : Yeah , exactly . Exactly . I m gon na be replacing you with good , old what s - her - name . [ Sighs ]
Sharon : See ? This is nt about me leaving Newman . This is about you feeling alone .
Sharon : [ Murmuring ] Shh . Shh . Shh . It s okay . Shh .
Chelsea : [ Sighs ] [ Sighs ] [ Sighs ]
Michael : Tell me you forgive me .
Lauren : Are you kidding me ?
Michael : All right , Lauren .
Lauren : How dare you trick me to get me here ?
Michael : There was no other way .
Lauren : Kevin had me convinced that you were gon na do something crazy .
Michael : You know what ? That part was his idea .
Lauren : Oh , and you knew about it ?
Michael : Yes , I knew about it . And I bought into it . And I wo nt deny that I am thrilled it got you here .
Lauren : Oh , well , then , I am glad that you are so happy your lie worked .
Michael : Lauren , you refused to talk to me ! You coming through that door is the first indication I ve had that you care more about me than you do about being angry ! And you do care about me !
Lauren : Of course I do .
Michael : Well ? That s a good start , ai nt it ?
Lauren : This -- all of this is not the way to deal with our situation .
Michael : Avoidance is nt the way , either .
Lauren : I needed time to think .
Michael : You ve had time .
Lauren : And I need more time .
Michael : I think you re hiding behind that now .
Lauren : Oh , do not analyze me .
Michael : I mean , look at you . It s obvious that you re terrified by something . And I do nt have a clue what that thing is .
Chloe : Would you like some more paper to rip to shreds , or are you okay now ?
Chelsea : I just had 18 years of single motherhood flash before my eyes . How would that make you feel ?
Chloe : Been there . Been freaked .
Chelsea : Well , how long did it take you to get over it ?
Chloe : [ Laughing ] Oh . I ll tell you when that happens .
Chelsea : That s reassuring .
Chloe : Okay , so what are you gon na do ? Are you gon na have a panic attack every time you see a baby ? Or should I install some sort of approaching - infant alert here and at the office , just in case ?
Chelsea : That s a little bit extreme , do nt you think ?
Chloe : Well , if extreme is gon na keep you from running off to Siberia to raise your baby .
Chelsea : If I was gon na go away , I would pick a place a lot warmer than Siberia , but I m not going anywhere .
Chloe : Good .
Chelsea : [ Sighs ]
Chloe : I like my bestie here . In town . All right , so , do you want me to warm up your tea ?
Chelsea : No , no . What I could really use right now is some encouragement .
Chloe : Okay , um ... you are amazingly talented , and you are a great person . You re such a good friend . You re taller than I am .
Chelsea : About Adam -- encouragement about Adam . Soon I m gon na have to tell him that I am carrying his baby , and I need to prepare myself for the nuclear aftermath .
Chloe : Okay . Adam may be ... compassionate and -- and kind and generous . And he will love the baby , and he is going to treat you with respect and kindness .
Chelsea : You really think so ?
Chloe : No .
Chelsea : Then why d you say that ?
Chloe : Because you told me to be supportive .
Chelsea : And honest !
Chloe : At the same time ? This is Adam we re talking about .
Chelsea : I need you to tell me how you really think he ll react .
Chloe : Well , Adam is not one for generous and compassionate acts . But after he explodes at you and threatens you a little ...
Chelsea : He ll want the baby .
Chloe : Yeah . On his own terms .
Chelsea : [ Sighs ]
Chloe : Look , I know that you want to be up front with him , but I really think you re going to regret it . I mean , I ve regretted every single conversation I ve ever had with him .
Chelsea : Adam can actually be very compassionate . When we were married , and , actually , before we were married , I -- I saw that side to him .
Chloe : Adam Newman , compassionate ? Now , that must be some sort of urban legend .
Chelsea : No . He was actually very sweet .
Chloe : I hope and I pray that this is just preggo hormones talking ... because I know that look . You are still in love with him , are nt you ?
Adam : I do nt need to hear about you telling me that I need to be with Chelsea .
Sharon : Even if it s true ?
Adam : Chelsea left me , all right ? What am I supposed to do ? Change her mind ?
Sharon : Well , maybe you have something worth saving .
Adam : Had . She s moved on .
Sharon : I would nt be so sure . It s just the way she looks at you .
Adam : Okay . Let s just say that we get back together again . There s no guarantee that I would nt continue to hurt her over and over again .
Sharon : Okay , in a perfect world ... if Chelsea did come back to you , would you take her back ?
Avery : Look , you and Tyler were just kids when this happened . I understand you wanting to break all connection to your past .
Leslie : Yeah , and we want to keep it that way . Tyler and I like our changed names and our new lives and having nothing whatsoever to do with that man . He should rot in prison .
Avery : I ca nt even imagine , and I know that this appeal must have you on edge , but I wish you would reconsider .
Leslie : My father killed my mother , Avery . There s nothing to reconsider . Why are you defending him ?
Avery : Because he s innocent .
Leslie : He s not .
Avery : The Innocence Foundation came to me with this case because he --
Leslie : I know , I know , I know , I know . The botched DNA process . You want to have this man released because of some flawed procedure years ago .
Avery : No , Leslie , it is so much more than that .
Leslie : No , no . There ca nt be . He was proven guilty . And you -- you re all about protecting the innocent , right ?
Avery : Absolutely .
Leslie : Okay . What about the two innocent little kids who lost their mother ? What about how you re upheaving the lives we built from nothing ?
Avery : Your father did nt do this .
Leslie : Everything we ve worked for , everything we ve achieved could come crumbling down if Gus Rogan is freed .
Avery : How does that affect you at all ?
Leslie : Do you think he ll just leave us alone ? Just walk away ? Our father will come looking for us .
Avery : So what , Leslie ? So what ? What s the worst thing that s gon na happen ? He gets out , you meet , and you decide if you want a relationship with him or if you want to shut him out forever .
Leslie : Publicity will surround this . We ll be labeled the son and daughter of a monster . I mean , are you willing to let that happen to Tyler and me ?
Avery : Should I be willing to let an innocent man rot in prison for the rest of his life for something he did nt do ?
Leslie : I saw it , Avery . My father murdered my mother .
Michael : I agreed to this whole sham of a setup because of what I was picking up from you .
Lauren : What s that ?
Michael : Well ... that you think we ve passed some point of no return . You could tell me that s not the case . Tell me that you do nt think we re done . Tell me that [ Sighs ] Our marriage can rebound from this .
Lauren : [ Sighs ] I m not -- I m not sure .
Michael : You re killing me here .
Lauren : [ Voice breaking ] It s killing me , too , believe me . But I ca nt overlook what s happened .
Michael : You know , what s happened ... is we ve loved each other . What s happened is we ve had this marriage where we laugh and we talk and we make love and we re raising this great kid . You know , hell , up until a couple of weeks ago , everything was perfect .
Lauren : But it s what happened in those weeks .
Michael : Nothing ! Nothing s happened . What s -- what s one brief period of sadness and misunderstanding ? How can that undo years of you and me being right for each other like nobody else could be ?
Lauren : [ Sighs ]
Michael : Look . I refuse to believe that there is nothing I can do to fix us . I ll do anything . I will change anything .
Lauren : All right , Michael . [ Sniffles ] Michael . It s not you . It s me .
Chelsea : It does nt matter if I m still in love with Adam .
Chloe : Yeah , it does .
Chelsea : Well , I wo nt let it . I m not gon na waste my time being in love with a man who does nt love me back with the same intensity .
Chloe : Sure . [ Chuckles ]
Chelsea : Why do nt you believe me ?
Chloe : Because you do nt believe you . I keep hoping that you re gon na purge this jerk , but your I heart Adam molecules , they re like -- they re like fungus .
Chelsea : You know , if it were that easy to just drop your feelings , most love songs would suck .
Chloe : No , see ? You should not have Adam and love songs in the same thought bubble . Okay , when it comes to him , you should be thinking You broke my heart , and I want to punch you in the neck songs . I mean , how could you still have feelings for this reptile after what he put you through ?
Chelsea : I never said I still have feelings for him .
Chloe : Okay , well , then , clarify , because you re making it seem like you re willing to give him another chance .
Chelsea : [ Chuckling ] No . No way . Why would I ever put myself through that ?
Chloe : Because you re not ready to face the alternative . A nasty custody battle for your kid .
Chelsea : Well , we do nt know that it would get to that point . Look , I know what you re thinking , and I know what I m dreading , but when you think about it , Adam and I were married once . He loved me once . We were about to have a child together . So what makes me assume that he would nt be okay with joint custody ?
Chloe : Well , there s only one way to find out . Tell the reptile you re having his baby .
Avery : I know that Valerie testified in the original trial .
Leslie : I did . I did . I told them exactly what I witnessed .
Avery : Well , according to those transcripts , you did nt see the actual murder . You came in and you saw your father bent over your mother s body after she was already dead .
Leslie : Okay , come on , now , Avery . Do nt try to use cross - examination tactics on me . I am every bit the lawyer you are . I know all the tricks .
Avery : Okay , then let s be lawyers . Let s cut to it . What if you re wrong ?
Leslie : I m not .
Avery : What if you saw what you thought was a murder , but was actually exactly what Gus said -- that he was trying to revive your mother when he found her on the living - room floor ?
Leslie : He s lying .
Avery : The botched DNA process , as you call it , it concealed sample traces that were found on your mother s body . They were missed in a rush to judgment against your father . That DNA does not belong to Gus , indicating that someone else had his or her hands on your mother that night , and they were involved in the struggle that led to tiny blood particles in her hair .
Leslie : I am done listening to this .
Avery : Why are you running from the truth ?
Leslie : I ve lived the truth , Avery , and I am telling you Tyler and I will suffer consequences if my father is released .
Avery : I am not defending him to hurt you .
Leslie : But that s exactly what s gon na happen . Now , if you want to unleash a killer and destroy the lives of two people in the process , well , then , you know what ? That s on you .
Victor : Nikki understandably is upset that we had to postpone the wedding , you know ? Although I do nt regret having done so .
Abby : She got sick . No one could help that .
Victor : Yeah , but she s afraid that because of her illness , we wo nt get married at all .
Abby : But that s not true .
Victor : Of course it is nt true .
Abby : Okay , so , what do you want with me ?
Victor : I have thought of a plan to , uh ... keep Nikki optimistic until she s strong enough to walk down the aisle . So , I ve planned a series of events .
Abby : What kind of events ?
Victor : Well ... I ll surprise everyone .
Nikki : Victor ? Victor ? [ Gasps ] [ Sighs ] [ Sighs ] Damn it . No , no , no , no . Not again . Please not again . [ Sighs ]
Chelsea : So , you think I should tell Adam the truth ?
Chloe : What I said was there s only one way to know for sure how he ll react . And I do nt think you should tell him .
Chelsea : I need you to stop telling me what I should nt do and give me ideas about what I should do .
Chloe : I think you should [ Sighs ] Choose a safer option .
Chelsea : Like what ?
Chloe : Like do nt tell Adam that he got you pregnant .
Chelsea : We live in the same town .
Chloe : So ? Find some John Studly to pretend to be Papa and keep Adam in the dark . What ? Do nt look at me like that . I ve done it before . It works .
Chelsea : [ Laughing ] No way . I could never pull something like that off .
Chloe : What ? Yes , you -- it s a con , and you are a master woman of cons .
Chelsea : I m reformed .
Chloe : Okay , so let this be your last little lapse , and then be done with it .
Chelsea : No . I spent my entire life living lie to lie , and it never paid off the way that my mother promised it would .
Chloe : Okay , well , you need to figure out how you value the truth ... because for me , I would not put that above the well - being of my child . This is your kid , Chelsea .
Chelsea : And that kid s life would be an entire scam if I did this , Chloe .
Chloe : Okay , well , when you put it that way .
Chelsea : Well , that s what it would be . [ Sighs ] What am I gon na do ?
Chloe : Well , gestation is just moving along . And pretty soon , that little secret is going to be an undeniable baby bump . So , you can either leave town , which I m not gon na let you do , or you come up with a cover story .
Chelsea : [ Sighs ] Or ... I can tell Adam the truth .
Chloe : It s an option . I m not signing off on it . So , are you gon na tell him or not ?
Chelsea : I do nt think I have a choice .
Michael : Wow . You just gave me the classic It s not you , it s me line . So , if -- if this is all about you and not ... [ Sighs ] Does this mean you ve fallen out of love with me ?
Lauren : No . No , that s not what I meant .
Michael : Okay , then what did you mean ? Just tell me . Tell me what you re thinking .
Lauren : [ Sighs ] I need time .
Michael : Well , I need you ! I -- without you , I ... I ca nt stand this . I ca nt live without you .
Leslie : [ Crying ] It s just tearing me apart . [ Sighs ]
Michael : Well ... that s a relief . I thought it was just me .
Lauren : [ Laughs ]
Lauren : [ Sighs ]
Michael : There s nothing we ca nt get past .
Lauren : Nothing ?
Michael : No , not a -- not a thing .
Lauren : Really ?
Michael : [ Laughs ]
Lauren : You believe that ?
Michael : Yeah , I do . You taught me that . All we have to do is remember how in love we are . Come back home . Let s fix this .
Lauren : [ Sighs ]
Leslie : Tyler ! Thank God you re still here . Why did nt you answer your cell ?
Tyler : I was in an editing session for the commercial . Why ? What s wrong ?
Leslie : Everything . What if we ve made a horrible mistake ? What if everything we ve believed all these years is wrong ?
Avery : Hello ? Hello ? Who is this ?
Abby : That is sensational .
Victor : Is nt it ?
Abby : I ll help with the atmosphere .
Victor : You can arrange the whole damn thing .
Abby : Okay , this falls right in the middle of my skill set . Oh , I love this idea , Dad .
Victor : Excuse me , Darling . One second . I thought you were asleep .
Nikki : Well , I was . Um ... [ Sighs ] Look , I do nt want to panic you .
Victor : What happened ?
Nikki : I m just -- I m feeling lightheaded again , and my vision has blurred .
Victor : Okay . You lie down right now . We ll call 911 , okay ?
Nikki : Oh , no , I do nt think that s necessary .
Victor : No , Sweetheart . You heard what the doctor said . If this happened again today , you go back to the hospital , all right ? The ambulance will be over in no time . I ll meet you at the hospital .
Nikki : [ Sighs ]
Leslie : And after -- after what Avery said , I do nt know . I do nt know if we did the right thing back when Mom died .
Tyler : You know what you saw . Just cause some lawyer says different .
Leslie : She s right . She s right , Tyler . I did nt actually see him kill her . I mean , I heard yelling . I ran in , and she was -- she was on the floor . He had his back to me , and he was shaking her and he was pounding on her , but ... but , Tyler ... he -- he really could have been trying to help her .
Tyler : Do nt let Avery confuse you .
Leslie : What if he s innocent ? There was -- there was evidence that was nt handled properly . There was different DNA that never came to light .
Tyler : That does nt prove that he was innocent .
Leslie : But what if he is ?
Tyler : He was never innocent of anything . You remember what it was like growing up with him . His temper . Hell , all the illegal stuff that he was into . Did you forget about that ?
Leslie : No . No , but Avery s convinced --
Tyler : Avery was nt there . She did nt live in the same house as him . [ Sighs ]
Leslie : He , um , he has a picture of us .
Tyler : What ?
Leslie : Yeah . That s how Avery put it together . She saw it and recognized us . I do nt even have pictures from when we were kids . [ Sighs ] He still thinks about us .
Tyler : Come on , Sis . We need to focus . If Avery gets him out of prison , what s the first thing that he does ?
Leslie : He ll come looking for us .
Tyler : That s right . He thinks about us ? He thinks about coming after us . He ll blame us for helping to put him away . And then our lives , all of this , it blows up .
Leslie : But just a few days ago , you were saying that maybe we should come clean about our true identities . What happened ?
Tyler : That s before I thought that there was a real possibility that Gus Rogan could be sprung from prison . [ Sighs ] This -- this changes everything .
Leslie : Yeah . It does .
Tyler : [ Sighs ] Maybe there s another way . It s ...
Leslie : You know there is nt . If Avery is this determined to get our father released , she will win that case . Then we ll need to disappear again .
Tyler : [ Sighs ]
Sharon : I might need some help getting my bags downstairs .
Adam : You know , I basically just helped you lug those heavy bags up there . [ Sighs ] I wish you would nt go .
Sharon : Why ? So you do nt have to carry my bags ?
Adam : Exactly . So , where you headed off to ?
Sharon : I m just gon na stay at the club .
Adam : That s just silly . It s absurd . You re gon na stay at a hotel when I have all this room here .
Sharon : I think it might be best .
Adam : Look , I understand why you want to go . I understand you want your independence , but to ship off late at night like this ?
Sharon : It s not really that late .
Adam : It s late enough . Look , just stay . One night . Okay ? I mean , you wake up tomorrow , you want to leave , I will carry those heavy bags out to the car . But if you decide to stay , then you stay .
Sharon : And just take it day by day ?
Adam : Exactly . No strings . Just a place to rest your head .
Adam : So , you called a cab , huh ?
Sharon : Yeah . I wish I had .
Adam : [ Sighs ] What are you doing here ? It s late .
Chelsea : I need to talk to you .
Adam : Can it wait ?
Chelsea : No . It ca nt .
Michael : We can so get back to where we were . We can . No , look . Come here .
Lauren : [ Laughs ]
Michael : Come closer . Head . Yeah . Very good . Very good . [ Chuckles ] Now , you repeat after me . I love you , Michael .
Lauren : [ Laughs ]
Michael : And I miss you as much as you miss me .
Lauren : I do miss you .
Michael : There is nothing stopping you from coming home and staying here , where you belong .
Lauren : [ Sighs ] [ Gasps , laughs ]
Michael : [ Grunts ]
Victor : Sweetheart .
Abby : Oh , Nikki . How are you feeling ?
Nikki : I am much better . Although the ambulance was overkill .
Victor : No , it was not . Nothing but the best for you , my sweet . How s your vision ?
Nikki : Perfectly fine . Um , and I m not lightheaded anymore .
Abby : That s wonderful and a relief .
Nikki : You did nt call Nicholas and Victoria , did you ?
Victor : No , Sweetheart , I did not . I kept my promise .
Nikki : Good , because there is nothing wrong with me , and I do nt want them to worry .
Abby : They wo nt hear a word from me .
Victor : Abby , would you give us a minute ?
Abby : Sure . I have things to do , anyway . I m going to go door - to - door , cheering up all of the sick .
Victor : Thank you , Sweetheart . You do that .
Nikki : You really are making too much of this .
Victor : I m still waiting .
Nikki : For what ?
Victor : For you to tell me the truth .
Chelsea : Here we are again .
Sharon : Um , I was just leaving . I m gon na go check on Faith .
Adam : Why would you do that ? She s probably already asleep .
Sharon : Well , then , I ll just give her a kiss good night .
Adam : Why do nt you just wait till the morning ?
Chelsea : Well , that did nt take long . You moved in .
Adam : You knew about that ?
Chelsea : It s tough keeping secrets in this town .
Adam : Well , do nt read into it .
Sharon : Chelsea , really .
Chelsea : It s okay . No explanation needed . I do nt care either way . What you two do no longer affects me . If you want to live together , have at it .
Sharon : Um , well , excuse me . I wo nt be long .
Adam : So ... what s so important that you needed to come here at night to talk to me about ?
Chelsea : Why are you being so cold to me ?
Adam : It s a defense , Chelsea . You know that about me . Want something to drink ?
Chelsea : Defense against what ?
Adam : I do nt know , Chelsea . It just seems to me that recently any time we run into each other , I do nt know what to say or what to do and how you ll react . I mean , the last time that you were here , you handed me your ring .
Chelsea : I guess I have been pretty hostile .
Adam : Well , I did nt give you the life that you expected .
Chelsea : The life that you promised me .
Adam : Mm - hmm . The same could be said about you .
Chelsea : [ Sighs ]
Adam : So ... why d you come by ? What do you need ?
Chelsea : Nothing . I do nt want anything from you .
Adam : Okay . Well , then , why are you here ?
Chelsea : I just -- I - I wanted to tell you that Jabot will be financing the startup of my clothing line , so I do nt need that money that I d initially asked you for .
Adam : Well , the 500k that I gave you is just part of the upcoming divorce settlement , so you can do with it what you want .
Chelsea : I do nt want to owe you anything , Adam .
Adam : Look , take it . Do nt take it . I do nt care .
Chelsea : God . You can really just turn it off when you feel like it , ca nt you ? Wow . I guess I should admire that trait .
Adam : So , what are you saying ? You ca nt just turn off what we had ? Is that what this is really about ?
Tyler : You know , I ca nt even believe that you are going there .
Leslie : No , I m agreeing with you . If Gus gets out of prison , he ll come looking for us .
Tyler : But that does nt mean that we have to run .
Leslie : Well , we ca nt stay here . Even if Avery s right and our father is nt a murderer , he s still violent . He has a record .
Tyler : I know that .
Leslie : We ca nt anticipate what he ll do .
Tyler : Hey . I wo nt let him hurt you . I like living here ... working here . I do nt want to go disappear again and start over somewhere else .
Leslie : I think you re only saying that because of your feelings for Lily .
Tyler : [ Scoffs ] You re the one who s got something going . Hey , what about Neil ?
Leslie : The thought of leaving him is just --
Tyler : Okay , then why walk away if you do nt have to ?
Leslie : Because I m not just thinking about our safety . I m thinking about Neil s and Lily s .
Tyler : Do you think that Dad would --
Leslie : If Avery is successful in getting our father released , we ll need to leave town ... and never look back .
Avery : Nick ! Noah ?
Sharon : Hey , Avery .
Avery : Oh . Sharon , hi .
Sharon : Nick s not here .
Avery : Okay . Listen , I do nt normally just barge in here like this , but --
Sharon : No , that s fine . I just got here myself . I sent the babysitter home and I put Faith down , and I was gon na wait for Nick , but , um ... are you okay ?
Avery : It s been a very strange day .
Sharon : Oh , me too . You know how it happens sometimes . You think things are finally settling down and getting back to normal --
Avery : Sharon , I think someone is following me . [ Sighs ]
Michael : [ Grunts ] What s that ?
Nikki : What do you think I m lying to you about ?
Victor : Sweetheart , you need to understand that our lives are going to be very different from now on . There are times when you re gon na have setbacks , like now .

Victor : But I have a solution for that . Come in !
Nikki : Oh , my goodness . [ Laughs ]
Victor : Look at you . You re so cute .
Nikki : What are you doing ? [ Laughs ]
Chelsea : I m not like you . I ca nt just stop loving at the snap of a finger .
Adam : Well , that s admirable .
Chelsea : And it s a waste ... since loving someone and wanting to be with that person are two different things .
Adam : Are they ?
Chelsea : You made your choice . You chose yourself .
Adam : That s a pretty distorted way to look at it .
Chelsea : Well , that s how it feels . Sorry I bothered you at home . It ll never happen again . [ Crying ]
Lauren : Oh , it was just a telemarketer saying that I won a big prize or something .
Michael : Ugh . I get dozens of those every week . Mm . Come back to bed .
Lauren : You know , I just -- I was getting a glass of water .
Michael : No , no , no .
Lauren : I ll be right back . I promise .
Michael : Okay , one --
Lauren : Okay . Right back .
Michael : Mm . Mm .
Nikki : Why is Abby dressed like that ?
Victor : Well , because I want to marry you . Now .
Abby : [ Laughs ]
Nikki : Now ?
Abby : Surprise !
Victor : Marry you today , tomorrow , every day until you re well enough to walk down the aisle and we have a proper wedding . What do you think ?
Nikki : Ohh ! I think , Quick , somebody hand me a mirror .
Victor : No , you do nt need a mirror . You re beautiful enough as it is . No mirror .
Nikki : Oh , my God .
Victor : Let s get this over with now . Let s do it . Okay ? Shall we begin ?
Abby : Yes . Dearly beloved , we are gathered here today in this house of good health , in the presence of God , to join Victor and Nikki in holy matrimony .
Phyllis : We got a divorce for a reason , if you recall . Being with me is nt as good for you as you may believe .

Rick : Right down to the very last stitch .

Ridge : Very impressive , yeah . I got that by your exclamation points .
Rick : It s fresh . It s original . I think she s just what we ve been looking for .
Caitlin : Oh , good . You re home .
Samantha : Yes . I wanted to find out how your meeting with Ridge went .
Caitlin : Oh . Well , it did nt happen .
Samantha : Oh .
Caitlin : But it s okay , cause Rick looked at my designs .
Samantha : And ?
Caitlin : He says I have real talent .
Samantha : Well , yeah .
Caitlin : Yeah , but you have to say that . You re my mom .
Samantha : Oh , well . I guess you trust it more coming from Rick . He does have a pedigree .
Caitlin : Pedigree ?
Samantha : The first family of fashion .
Caitlin : And he s the crown prince . Rick left a note for his dad and Ridge about me -- my designs .
Samantha : Well , that was nice .
Caitlin : No , but he said he was nt just being nice . That , that he was being selfish . Because I m such an incredibly talented designer . And when I meet with Ridge , I need to walk in there with confidence and pride .
Samantha : Yes , you should . It seems like he took a personal interest in you .
Caitlin : I think he did .
Amber : Hey , you .
Rick : Amber .
Amber : What s going on , huh ?
Rick : Look at you .
Amber : Hmm , you like ?
Rick : Yeah , I never got used to the dark .
Amber : Yeah , well , that was a phase , you know . I was in mourning . But , time to move on , right ?
Rick : So things are gettin better ?
Amber : Oh , much , much . You know , thank you again for getting your family to rent me the beach house . You know , it s just so amazing , just waking up to the sound of the ocean . And just taking time out to watch the sun set . You know , the only thing that would be better would be having someone to share it with .
Catherine : Look who s home , R.J.
Stephanie : No ice cream today . We had to come home and see the brand - new baby .
Steffy : Is he awake ?
Catherine : Yeah . You want to say hi ?
Steffy : Bon jour , mon frere .
Stephanie : The French lessons are paying off .
Steffy : I m gon na teach R.J.
Stephanie : You are ? Well , I think that s wonderful . But I think first you d better go upstairs and work on your vocabulary worksheet .
Steffy : Now ?
Stephanie : Yeah , now . I ll come up in a minute and help .
Catherine : And I ll come bring you milk and cookies . It ll help you concentrate . Do you mind ?
Stephanie : Oh , no , not at all . Come here . Come here . Come here . All right , I ve got him .
Catherine : Thank you .
Stephanie : Yes . Yes . Oh , yes , yes , yes . Let me look at you and see you .
Ridge : He shares all our blood , mother . Yours , mine and Brooke s .
Rick : You know , Amber , if you re lonely at the beach house , nobody would mind if you got a roommate .
Amber : I m not lonely .
Rick : But you said you were .
Amber : I just think it s such a great place , I should nt be the only one who gets to enjoy it .
Rick : Well , do nt be surprised if Ridge drops by to do some surfing .
Amber : Well , what about you ?
Rick : I ve been traveling a lot .
Amber : Yeah , well , if your schedule clears up , maybe you could stop by .
Rick : I will .
Amber : You know , Rick , I know that we kind of lost touch --
Rick : Circumstances .
Amber : Most of them my fault .
Rick : Look , it s water under the bridge . Just forget about it , okay ?
Amber : But , see , that s the last thing I want to do . You know , I know this year s been tough for me . But it was nt all bad . And even the stuff that was , you know , it taught me something . I think about the kind of person I was when we first met -- no integrity , no sense of loyalty or responsibility . And it was all about me and my insecurities . And when I finally got over them -- or , or when I finally learned how to be the kind of person you could be proud of -- it was too late for us . Truth is , you may have been a kid when we met , but I m the one who really grew up in our marriage .
Rick : You ve been giving this a lot of thought .
Amber : Hard not to . You know , it seems like everybody s getting a second chance these days . You ve got Hhector and Samantha and Ridge and Brooke . And Eric s got his company back .
Rick : And you want a second chance , too ?
Amber : Well , I could definitely use one . You know , a couple of months ago my whole life went up in flames . Literally . And if hector had nt pulled me out of that apartment , I would have gone up with it .
Rick : You know , I just found out today that it was Hector who saved your life .
Amber : Yeah , well , he would nt have had to had I not run back in for our wedding photos . Yeah , yeah . I know . Stupid , right ?
Rick : Do nt beat yourself up .
Amber : Yeah , well . If I had to do it over again , believe me , I would ve kept the marriage and lost the photos .
Caitlin : Is nt it exciting ?
Samantha : Very . How long did this interview last ?
Caitlin : Over lunch . At the Cafe Russe .
Samantha : The Cafe Russe ?
Caitlin : Uh - huh . It s Rick s favorite place .
Samantha : It s everybody s favorite place .
Caitlin : Oh , I know . And we saw all of these celebrities . And Rick knew some of them . Mom , I m telling you . This whole day was completely surreal .
Brooke : Well , now , that s a pretty picture .
Stephanie : I m just watching him until Catherine comes back downstairs .
Brooke : Oh . Come here , sweetheart .
Stephanie : He s fine .
Brooke : It s okay . He wants to see mommy . How are you ? I m surprised to see you here .
Stephanie : Oh , I just brought Steffy home from her French lesson . I do that all the time .
Brooke : Mm - hmm . Well , that ended a while ago and you re still here . Did you want to see me ?
Stephanie : No .
Brooke : Well , that s a shame . I was hoping that R.J. Could break some of that tension between us .
Stephanie : He may be a blessing , but he s not a miracle worker .
Brooke : You do nt think so ? Look what he s done already -- cemented my position here in this home , in this family . Makes you sick , does nt it , Stephanie ? To see me here in Taylor s house .
Stephanie : You do nt want me to answer that , do you ?
Brooke : No . Actually , I want you to leave .
Stephanie : I beg your pardon ?
Brooke : I m just really tired . And I m very happy . But I just ca nt deal with your jealousy right now .
Stephanie : Jealousy ?
Brooke : Please . It s coming off you in waves .
Stephanie : What do I have to be jealous of ?
Brooke : Me , Stephanie . You re jealous of me .
Caitlin : It was no big deal for Rick . He eats there all the time .
Samantha : So this lunch -- was it a date ?
Caitlin : No .
Samantha : Oh . Just because the way you re talking about it , kinda makes it sound --
Caitlin : No , mom , he was just hungry .
Samantha : He was trying to impress you .
Caitlin : No .
Samantha : And it worked .
Caitlin : No , you ve got it all wrong . Okay , maybe I was impressed , but I -- I ca nt believe you d think that about Rick . I mean , he s such a nice guy .
Samantha : Oh , well , Rick is a nice guy . He s just also a lot older than you .
Caitlin : Not that much .
Samantha : Caitlin --
Caitlin : Mom , it was nt a date . You do nt have worry .
Samantha : I m not worried . I m not .
Caitlin : Okay .
Samantha : I -- I know that -- that Rick was probably very professional .
Caitlin : Oh , totally . I mean , you probably think of him as being older than he is because he s just so responsible . You know , they made him vice president of Forrester when he was still in college ?
Samantha : Well , he got an early start , being from that family . Well , it s like Thomas . Have you -- have you seen him lately ?
Caitlin : You know , not really . I ve been so busy with everything .
Samantha : But you guys are still friends , right ?
Caitlin : Oh , absolutely . We re friends . But mom , Rick said Ridge has this youth line . And if Forrester s interested in my designs , I could actually work there . I mean , not just as an intern . Is nt that incredible ?
Samantha : Oh , yeah . It s incredible . It is .
Stephanie : You ve said that before . It was preposterous then and it s preposterous now .
Brooke : You re threatened by me , Stephanie . That s why you ve been so desperate to keep me out of Ridge s life .
Stephanie : I tried to protect him . And his children .
Brooke : Well , now , it s my turn . I get to protect all of them from you . Quite frankly , I would really rather you not be here at all . But , Ridge thinks you have a lot to offer the children , and I have to agree . If you can follow a few simple rules .
Stephanie : Well , la de da . Queen of the manor .
Brooke : Yeah . I ve come a long way , have nt I ? What was that you used to call me ? Little valley tart .
Stephanie : You have nt changed .
Brooke : Keep testing me . I ll show you just how much has changed . And as the new Forrester matriarch --
Stephanie : You ?
Brooke : The next time you show up here , bring a little respect . In the meantime --
Stephanie : In the meantime , I ll help Steffy with her French lesson .
Brooke : No , I want you to leave . The baby and I need some rest .
Stephanie : Oh , by all means , take care of your baby . I ll take care of Taylor s children .
Brooke : It s all right . I can help Steffy with her homework . You can go .
Stephanie : Taylor asked me on her deathbed to take care her children .
Brooke : She did nt know I would be here .
Stephanie : Oh , I think maybe she did .
Brooke : Get out of this house .
Rick : Thanks , Aaron . Dad will get you an answer on that soon .
Aaron : Great .
Ric : You just ca nt stay away .
Caitlin : I brought the sketches back for those designs . I thought your dad and Ridge might want to see them .
Rick : You did nt come all the way back here just for that .
Caitlin : No . I wanted to thank you . You did nt have to meet with me , or take me to lunch .
Rick : I had fun .
Caitlin : Me , too . I just -- I know how busy you are --
Rick : Well , I m always up for a break . So if there s anything else on your mind --
Caitlin : Actually , there is .
Caitlin : I wanted to explain . At lunch you when you asked me about Thomas --
Rick : You guys are friends .
Caitlin : Just friends .
Rick : Okay .
Caitlin : I just -- I know I got kind of flustered when you asked me about him .
Rick : A lot of things flustered you at lunch .
Caitlin : Well , Cafe Russe ?
Rick : Chris ODonnell ?
Caitlin : Everything that you said about my designs and my talent -- it really meant a lot to me .
Rick : You asked for an honest opinion . You got one .
Caitlin : And I appreciate it . Which is why I do nt want you to get the wrong idea about Thomas and me .
Rick : The wrong idea ?
Caitlin : Well , yeah . You guys are related and I m friends with him . And I do nt want you to feel obligated to help me .
Rick : No , no , Caitlin . I do nt feel obligated .
Caitlin : Good , good . Cause I want to earn everything I get .
Rick : Sounds good to me .
Caitlin : So you understand ?
Rick : I think so .
Caitlin : My friendship with Thomas wo nt change things .
Rick : No .
Caitlin : Good . Thank you so much for everything , Rick . This has just been a great day .
Stephanie : You ca nt keep me from my grandchildren .
Brooke : And I do nt want to , Stephanie . I know how much you love them . But if you ca nt get past this animosity towards me --
Stephanie : All right . Ridge asked me to make peace with you . I m here .
Brooke : Well , that s not enough .
Stephanie : Are you trying to provoke me ?
Brooke : No . I do nt want to have to take this stand . If it were nt for the children --
Stephanie : The children ? The children ? ! You do nt give a damn about the children . It s just your -- it s your way of getting revenge against me , is nt it ? By using them .
Brooke : Oh , god , this is exactly what I was talking about !
Stephanie : All right , okay . All right . If you want me to jump through hoops for you , fine . I ll do it . But do nt you use Taylor s children . They have suffered enough . They ve lost their mother .
Brooke : They have a new mother , now .
Stephanie : You think you can replace Taylor ?
Brooke : No , of course not . But I certainly can replace you .
Stephanie : I wo nt allow that . I wo nt allow this .
Brooke : Oh , my god , you do nt get it , do you ? You do nt have a say anymore !
Stephanie : Oh , you re such a bitch ! You re such a bitch ! You d do anything , would nt you ? You d use anybody . You d use that little baby . You d use those children . They re just pawns for you !
Ridge : That s enough ! I ask for peace . And this is what I get now .
Stephanie : I tried .
Ridge : It does nt look like it , mother .
Stephanie : She does nt want peace ! She wants her revenge against me , and she s using your children .
Ridge : Get out .
Stephanie : Ridge , now , please listen --
Ridge : Look , you had your chance ! I practically begged you .
Stephanie : She does nt want me here . She just said so .
Ridge : Just get out .
Stephanie : Ridge , I --
Ridge : I m sorry .
Brooke : It s not your fault . I m going to go take care of the baby .
Ridge : Yeah .
Stephanie : Taylor . Oh , Taylor . Your home , your family -- she s taken it all . Forrester Matriarch . We ll see about that . We ll just see about that .
