[ scene_break ] henry : what do you mean , there was never any baby ? katie : oh , god , henry . i know you do n't want to hear this right now , but you need to know the truth . there never was a baby . vienna was never pregnant . henry : is this some kind of twisted katie logic to make me feel less bad about the miscarriage ? katie : no . it was vienna 's way of trying to hold onto you . henry : okay . you 're not making any sense , sweetie . katie : none of this makes sense , and i 'm sorry . as crazy and horrible as it sounds , it is true . i swear . vienna did n't have a miscarriage , because she was never pregnant in the first place . henry : she was never pregnant ? katie : no . she only told you that because she was afraid to lose you to barbara . henry : that does n't make any sense . sweetie , there were tests , and she went to see doctors . katie : did you ever actually see her with one of the tests ? henry : no , no . but this is insanity . what are you talking about ? katie : i know it 's insane . i tried to tell her that many times . i could never talk her out of her plan , though , and i 'm sorry to be the one to tell you this , but these lies ca n't go on anymore . henry : you 're telling me that she was never pregnant . katie : no , not this time . henry : and that she pretended to be so that i would marry her . katie : yes . henry : and then she pretended to lose the baby so that i would never find out that she was never pregnant . katie : yes . i 'm so sorry , henry . henry : oh , my god ! how could she do this to me ? [ scene_break ] vienna : please , please , chris ! please , i 'm begging you . this is for katie 's sake as much as mine . if he founds out that she kept my secret , he 'll hate her forever . do you really want to see that happen ? chris : she was crazy to allow you to go through with this . vienna : yeah , but she knows how desperate i was . chris : vienna , henry -- i mean , how could you do this to someone that you claim you love ? vienna : i did it because i love him ! do n't you see ? i did it because i do n't want to lose him . chris : you invented a baby to hold onto him ? vienna , that does n't sound like love to me . if that 's what you do to hold onto a guy , you know what i 'd tell henry ? i 'd say , `` run away from that girl as fast as you can . `` vienna : no , no ! henry and i , we belong together . he loves me , and i love him . chris : i 'm really starting to doubt that you know the meaning of the word . vienna : of course i do . chris : vienna , you lit the fuse . now you watch the explosion . [ scene_break ] katie : i am not justifying what vienna did , but it was not done out of malice . you need to know that her heart was in the right place . henry : how can you say that ? she lied to me . she , uh -- she let me believe that we were having a baby , and then she let me believe that we lost another one , katie ? i 've been sitting with her . i 've been worried sick about her . i 've been blaming myself for this ! katie : i know , but she loves you so much ! that 's the only reason i went along with this plan , because i remembered how happy we all were -- you and vienna and me and brad . i did n't want you two to lose what i lost when he died . henry : oh , do n't . do n't you dare drag brad into this . do n't do that . katie : i 'm sorry , okay ? i 'm sorry , i 'm sorry . but you know the truth now . it 's out there . what can we do to fix it ? henry : fix it ? we ca n't do anything to fix this ! katie : come on . please just let me help , henry . what can i do ? what can i do ? henry : for starters , you can stay the hell away from me ! [ scene_break ] vienna : [ sighs ] oh , my god ! you scared me , henry . henry : i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to scare you . what are you doing up and about ? vienna : i was going a little crazy . i had to get some fresh air . henry : yeah . you should n't be walking around in your condition . you just had a miscarriage . you must be in a lot of pain . vienna : yeah . i feel a little weak , but do n't worry . i did n't walk far . henry : it 's all right . come on . i do n't want to take any chances . come on . lie down . hold on a second . vienna : thank you , my darling . we 're gon na get through this , are n't we ? as long as we have each other . henry : that 's right . that 's right . as long as we have each other , there 's nothing that can hurt us . vienna : oh . i love you so much . i 'm sorry , henry . henry : what do you have to be sorry about ? this was n't your fault . hey , you did n't cause the miscarriage . vienna : no . but i feel i 've let you down . henry : no , you have n't let me down . as long as you love me as much as you say you do , then you could never let me down . all right . all right . enough talk . there you go . there you go . lie down . what 's this ? [ scene_break ] craig : relax , holden . i 'm here with good intentions . holden : somehow i doubt that , craig . craig : i 'm simply offering lily some financial compensation for taking in gabriel . so i 'll hear from you ? lily : yes , yes . we 'll speak soon . craig : always a pleasure . oh , and you , too , holden . holden : please tell me that you 're not going to take money from him . lily : holden . holden : because if you do , there will be a catch to it , lily . count on it . lily : i do n't know if i agree with you . having gabriel come into his life has had a profound effect on craig . holden : for that , he 'd have to be human , and i think you should reconsider letting gabriel stay at the house . lily : why ? holden : because then you have to deal with him on a regular basis . lily : i can handle craig . how 's meg doing ? did you and your mother get her settled in already ? holden : yes . she 's in a facility down in d.c. it seems to be top of the line . so she 's in the best place she can be . lily : oh . i really hope it works out for her , holden . holden : yeah , we all do . my mother 's down there with her right now . iva 's there . she said to say hello . sends her love . lily : that was sweet . is that why you 're here to see me ? holden : actually , no . i need some help with the kids . lily : of course . holden : i want to get them involved in the wedding . lily : oh . holden : yeah . the rehearsal dinner , ceremony , the reception . lily : you 're really going all - out . holden : yeah . molly wants the whole nine yards , and i figured , `` why not ? `` might as well just do it the right way , you know . lily : you should . holden : anyway , i just need some help coordinating the kids ' schedules . lily : whatever you need . holden : i just need to know what they have planned so that there are no conflicts on the days of the events . lily : well , you know that jack just dropped natalie off at camp with sage . holden : yeah , i know that , and i do n't plan on taking her out , but ethan and faith are free , and i want to get them involved . i think it would be good for them . i think it would give them a chance to get to know molly better . lily : yeah , yeah . it will . whatever you need . holden : thanks . i knew i could count on you . [ scene_break ] carly : i do n't want to get too hopeful , but it does seem like jack and i are starting to connect again . molly : if that 's true , then i am really happy for you , and i feel like such an idiot for barging in and interrupting . carly : no , you did n't . i knew you were coming . so , tell me , how are the wedding plans coming along ? molly : it 's gon na be big , maybe too big . i feel kind of guilty . carly : why ? molly : because of everything that 's happened and everything that the people i love are going through . i do n't know . maybe i do n't deserve to go all - out . maybe i should n't . carly : molly , it 's because of everything that 's happened to you that you absolutely deserve to go all - out . somebody 's got to have a fairy - tale ending , right ? molly : i want to believe that . carly : trust me . you deserve this happiness . [ doorbell rings ] carly : mm . oh , my god ! [ gasps ] gwen ! gwen ! aah ! [ scene_break ] katie : what are you doing here ? chris : you will never guess what your friend vienna tried talking me into doing . or maybe you will . katie : she tried to get you to back up her lie about the miscarriage ? chris : bingo . and , katie , i had to say no , okay . i had to . and , listen , i have to be honest with you , all right ? you have to stop protecting this girl . she is setting herself up for a tidal wave of trouble . katie : trust me , it already hit . chris : wait , what are you talking about ? katie : henry knows everything . chris : he does ? how ? katie : i told him . and i think i 've just lost the best friend i 've ever had . [ scene_break ] vienna : i 've been looking for that everywhere . henry : why ? what is it ? vienna : it 's a pad for the car seat for pregnant women to make the ride less bumpy . henry : really ? it does n't look like one to me . you know what this looks like to me ? vienna : no . what ? henry : it looks like a -- it looks like an adorable little baby . vienna : what ? henry : in fact , it looks like our child . it came back to us . it was just hiding behind the bed . vienna : henry , stop it . why are you acting like this ? henry : you know what ? this is amazing to me . it 's back into our lives . you know what i think ? i think we should give it a name . i think `` paddy . `` paddy , that 's a good name . vienna : you know , whatever you 're thinking , you 're wrong . henry : what i 'm thinking is that we should give it an official name . what 's wrong with that ? i 'm thinking `` paddy . `` how about that ? what do you think about that , huh ? how about that , vienna ? you know what ? i know what you did ! i know everything you did ! you lied about being pregnant with our child , and i gave up everything ! i gave up everything for you and a baby that never existed ! vienna : what do you mean , you know everything ? henry : your partner in crime confessed all of it . vienna : henry , please . let me explain . henry : you want to explain ? you want to explain ? do you think there 's anything you can possibly say to me that i would believe ? vienna : i 'll tell you the truth , all of it . i swear . henry : really ? that was one thing i thought i could always count on from you , was honesty . vienna : i did really love you , honestly ! henry : is that why you lied about being pregnant ? is that why you lied about losing a child ? vienna : i was scared of losing you ! henry : to who ? to who ? to barbara ? vienna : to barbara , yes ! to barbara ! henry : why ? why ? unlike you , i was honest about that . i told you i had feelings for her , and i said it was something we never had to worry about , and then i chose you ! i chose you because i thought there was a strong bond of love between us ! vienna : but there still is ! there still is ! that 's what this is all about ! henry : what are you telling me , vienna ? you did this out of love for me ? please . vienna : yes , i did ! henry : no , you did n't . no , you did n't . you did this out of fear , and you did this out of jealousy , because you wanted to prove to barbara that you could win . vienna : no , no , i did n't ! i swear ! henry : oh , please . do n't swear anymore . enough with the lies . enough with the excuses ! get off ! vienna : no , henry , please , please ! i was wrong ! i was wrong ! i made a terrible mistake ! i 'm sorry ! you 're right ! you 're right ! i was scared of losing you to barbara ! i could n't stand the thought of it ! because i 've never loved anyone the way i love you ! even katie saw that ! please ! we can get past this , henry . we can get past this . yeah . we can get past this , please . you have to forgive me . i 'm begging you . please forgive me . please forgive me . please .

[ scene_break ] emily : you shut off lucky 's life - support . you went against the doctors ' warnings and you bet his life that you knew better than they did . and you were right , lucky woke up , but he might have done that on his own , luke , without you taking the chance that might have killed him . luke : emily , you are grossly misinformed for someone who works in a hospital . first of all , there were no warnings from doctors about shutting off the machines . in fact , they told me it was a decision i had to make . and as i recall , you were in court the day the judge granted my petition . so you see , you 're wrong all the way around -- medically , legally , and in being willing to keep him tied to tubes for the rest of his natural life . emily : you still need to explain , to take lucky through the reasons for your decision . luke : you know , how i relate to my son is not really within your jurisdiction . emily : ok , look , lucky is stuck in a wheelchair . you need to sit with him , luke , let him know that his dad still loves him . luke : if it 's so important to you , why do n't you tell him ? emily : he does n't need to hear it from me ! what , is lucky just supposed to assume that you love him because you used to take him camping a few times when he was a kid ? news flash , luke -- it 's been years since you did anything but judge , criticize , and push lucky away . luke : hey , hold on here . emily : look , you have -- luke : do n't lecture me about who and how i love ! emily : you 've been blessed with a wonderful son . he was almost lost to you , and miraculously he came back . do n't you think it 's time that you started acting like lucky mattered to you ? luke : oh , shut the hell up . emily : when lucky gets out of here , he 's coming to wyndemere to live with me , and you 'd better be his first visitor , luke . it 's the least he deserves . luke : you know , he deserves a hell of a lot more than to be in that mausoleum with a humorless little package like you , sweetie pie ! elizabeth : do you feel better now ? [ scene_break ] sam : i am not sorry that faith is dead . i only wish she lived long enough to tell sonny where michael is . maybe she was just trying to clear her conscience . courtney : or just hurt him one last time . sam : or maybe faith was trying to work out a deal by telling sonny where michael is . courtney : look , i want to believe that michael 's alive , too . i do n't want of it to be true , but -- oh , god , the more time that passes , the less chance there is that michael 's still alive . sam : courtney , i think all of you get to hope for as long as you need to . courtney : yeah , but what 's the difference between hope and denial ? god , i mean , when -- when are we supposed to stop pretending that everything is going to work out ? when are we supposed to admit the truth and help them deal with their grief ? [ scene_break ] sonny : where 's my son ? lorenzo : i do n't know . reese : i 'll get him to talk . lorenzo : i swear on the soul of my dead niece i had nothing to do with kidnapping your children . ric : get him in an interrogation room , please . carly : listen , i will get him to talk . d.a . lansing said that i could speak to mr. alcazar alone . i did n't believe that you could go this far . lorenzo : you believe this , that i 'm monstrous enough to kidnap your children ? carly : lorenzo , there is a lot of evidence pointing to you . lorenzo : agent marshall is grasping at -- sit down . lorenzo : you believe that i love you ? carly : oh , lorenzo , there are so many kinds of love . lorenzo : yes or no ? carly : yes . lorenzo : carly , i have dreamed of having that love returned ; of spending the rest of my life with you by my side . but given all that , i would rather never see you again than cause harm to your children . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : ok . lucky : you ever try punching a pillow ? elizabeth : what ? lucky : well , it 's the same principle as punching a heavy bag at the gym . it 's what i used to do when i was so angry , i could n't see straight . elizabeth : that 's nice , lucky . i 'm not angry . lucky : you are such a bad liar . just tell me . i guarantee you 'll feel better . elizabeth : this patient , he would n't let me draw blood and he told me that i did n't know what i was talking about . lucky : very nice . it 's quick . believable . now , tell me what you 're really going through . elizabeth : your father made me upset . lucky : join the club . what 'd he say ? elizabeth : well , emily was giving him a hard time because she wants him to reach out to you . lucky : why 'd she bother ? elizabeth : and , of course , luke got defensive and -- lucky : what do you expect ? luke spencer ca n't be criticized by anyone for any reason . elizabeth : i know , but i do n't understand . could n't he see how fragile she is ? i mean , ok , fine , maybe emily was out of line but , god , he just should have bitten his tongue . you have no idea how badly i just wanted to tell him to back off , that emily is dealing with being raped by connor bishop . [ scene_break ] jax : are you familiar with the play `` othello `` ? rachel : somewhat . jax : well , the character iago convinces othello to become suspicious of his wife . he 's one of shakespeare 's most despicable villains . rachel : jax , i would never do anything to undermine your relationship with courtney . jax : then why would you bring up jason ? rachel : i was just about to say that the depth of courtney 's attachments is one of her most attractive qualities . jax : really ? rachel : i mean , would you really want to be with a woman who could just turn her back on the love of her life ? i did n't mean that . i -- and courtney never said that . i was n't saying that -- that jason is the love of courtney 's life . i -- jax : would you like a shovel , rachel , so you can dig yourself a little deeper ? rachel : i 'm just saying that courtney and jason , they have a strong connection , and it 's only natural that at a time of crisis they would seek each other out . [ door opens ] courtney : seems like everywhere i go , there you are . [ scene_break ] sam : tony ? tony , hey . i want to ask you some questions about faith 's final minutes . tony : ok , i 'll do my best . sam : did she say anything at all before she asked to speak to sonny ? tony : no . sam : no ? well , were you with her the entire time ? tony : well , i stepped away to speak with the authorities about her condition , but there was a nurse beside her and she was certain that faith was unconscious from the moment they brought her in until she asked for sonny . sam : is there any way you can give me the nurse 's name ? tony : why are you pursuing this ? sam : well , faith gave sonny a name , or was trying to give sonny a name , and maybe that could help us find michael . tony : all right , the e.r . team is in the staff lounge on break right now . if you want to question them , you tell them i said it was ok . sam : thank you . thank you so much . i appreciate it . brook lynn : hey . sam : hey . brook lynn : look , sam , is there any way i can help ? sam : no , thanks . what i 'm thinking , it 'll probably just go nowhere anyway . brook lynn : come on , just tell me . look , you never know . sam : all right , you know the night that kristina was kidnapped , everyone , of course , thought that i did it , and all that time they wasted investigating me gave faith the chance to kidnap michael and morgan . [ scene_break ] reese : watch alcazar . see how he steps out of the way right before faith is shot ? ric : he 's clearing for the sniper . reese : exactly . sonny : ok , ric , i asked faith -- she was on the table , she was dying -- where michael was . she said something like an `` a `` . ric : you think that she was trying to say `` alcazar `` ? sonny : well , what do you think ? reese : what more do we need ? [ scene_break ] lorenzo : remember the night morgan was born ? that unbelievable storm , power lines down all over the city , you alone in that big , secluded house , frightened out of your mind ? carly : of course i do . you came in ; you told me everything was going to be all right . lorenzo : that 's right , i took you by the hand and i talked you through your labor . and you asked me to make a promise . do you remember what it was ? carly : i made you promise me that if morgan 's life was in danger you would take him to the hospital , even if it meant leaving me behind . lorenzo : right . i gave you my word that i would keep your child alive , even if it meant losing you . now , carly , tell me the truth . how could i make that promise and then kidnap your child -- or his brother and sister ? [ scene_break ] sonny : just before the kidnapping , ric , i was on the island with the boys . i had n't even moved into my place . jason saw -- right -- saw alcazar snooping around my place . reese : enough ? sonny : i 'm just saying this ; i 'm not going to say it again . you either make him talk or i will . ric : give me a minute . did he tell you where to find michael ? carly : jase ?

[ scene_break ] courtney : jason 's not the most sentimental person . it 's almost impossible to get him to look back or talk about the past , except with michael . jason told me that he used to hold michael when he was baby and he 'd talk to him till he fell asleep . i mean , he could describe the first time he rolled over ; the first time he walked . you know , jason had the sweetest story about the first time michael tasted ice cream . michael was just a little baby , and jason gave him just a little taste . michael got this look on his face like , `` mmm , i like that , i want more . `` michael loved ice cream . hold me . jax : you know , maybe -- maybe i 'm not the man you need tonight .

[ scene_break ] reese : this is agent marshall . i 've arrested a suspect in the corinthos kidnapping case . i believe he was also involved in the shooting of faith rosco . i need officers to escort him to the station . i 'm at the courthouse . i 'm in front of courtroom eight . thank you . lorenzo : you are wasting our time . i had nothing to do with the shooting of faith or the kidnapping of those children . reese : i do n't expect you to confess . lorenzo : what motive do i have ? reese : you 're in love with carly corinthos . you 've already proven you 'd do anything to have her , from holding her hostage on your yacht to nearly blowing up this courtroom and trying to drive her husband insane . lorenzo : that 's ancient history . reese : you wanted to redeem yourself . so you arranged for faith to kidnap those children so you could come on in and save them and carly , who 's now single , would be eternally grateful . and it would have worked , except faith got shot and decided to turn you in . lorenzo : none of that is even remotely true . ric : where is michael corinthos ? lorenzo : if i knew , i would have -- ric : where is he ? lorenzo : i would have already brought him home ! reese : well , you were just waiting for the perfect moment , when carly was losing all hope and would be most grateful . lorenzo : if you believe that i love carly -- which i do -- why would i put her through that suffering ? reese : the end justifies the means . is n't that how you operate ? ric : look , you gave up faith 's assistant , alcazar . you told us that he restored old churches . how are you going to know that if you were n't part of the operation ? lorenzo : i told you -- ric : sit down ! lorenzo : i was investigating the case on my own ! reese : how , by having your man rollo disconnect sonny 's security system ? lorenzo : rollo is not working for me . reese : really ? so then how would you know that rollo and peavy were in contact before the children were even taken ? you set this whole thing up , alcazar . you wanted to ruin sonny and then have carly to yourself . lorenzo : once again , you 're making a mistake . ric : you know what ? you 'd better hope that my nephew is still alive because if he 's not , i 'm going to see to it that you get the death penalty . let 's go . [ scene_break ] carly : sonny , what did faith say ? sonny : i asked her to tell me where michael is , and she gave me some kind of word , i do n't know , then she died . courtney : what does that -- what does this mean ? sonny : what it means is she 's probably playing mind games with me is what it means . jason : well , the guy who shot faith might know where michael is . sonny : what , you found him ? ofc . murphy : i 've been sent to inform you we 've arrested faith rosco 's accomplice . it 's lorenzo alcazar . [ scene_break ] jax : hey , it 's me . i know you 're not home , but just in case you check your messages , i have your cell phone . you left it at your place . so i 'm at my apartment , and -- [ knock on door ] jax : oh , maybe that 's you now . hey . rachel : are you ok ? jax : yeah . why should n't i be ? rachel : it 's just that i saw what happened at the hospital today and , i mean , i know you 're a strong and confident man , but still , it had to hurt to see your fiancée with her ex . jax : oh , no , no , courtney was n't with jason . he was just , you know , comforting her because of michael . rachel : look , if you do n't want to talk about this , we do n't have to . jax : well , that 's probably a good idea . can i -- i mean , are you off duty ? can i get you a glass of wine or something ? rachel : jax , look , i know this has to be painful , but making excuses for the situation is n't going to make it any better . jax : i 'm sorry , what situation are we talking about now ? rachel : just the connection that jason and courtney have . i mean , i 'm just a neutral observer , but it just seems really strong . jax : you know , i 'm a pretty good observer myself , and what i 'm observing right now is you doing your best to make me jealous . [ scene_break ] emily : you shut off lucky 's life - support . you went against the doctors ' warnings and you bet his life that you knew better than they did . and you were right , lucky woke up , but he might have done that on his own , luke , without you taking the chance that might have killed him . luke : emily , you are grossly misinformed for someone who works in a hospital . first of all , there were no warnings from doctors about shutting off the machines . in fact , they told me it was a decision i had to make . and as i recall , you were in court the day the judge granted my petition . so you see , you 're wrong all the way around -- medically , legally , and in being willing to keep him tied to tubes for the rest of his natural life . emily : you still need to explain , to take lucky through the reasons for your decision . luke : you know , how i relate to my son is not really within your jurisdiction . emily : ok , look , lucky is stuck in a wheelchair . you need to sit with him , luke , let him know that his dad still loves him . luke : if it 's so important to you , why do n't you tell him ? emily : he does n't need to hear it from me ! what , is lucky just supposed to assume that you love him because you used to take him camping a few times when he was a kid ? news flash , luke -- it 's been years since you did anything but judge , criticize , and push lucky away . luke : hey , hold on here . emily : look , you have -- luke : do n't lecture me about who and how i love ! emily : you 've been blessed with a wonderful son . he was almost lost to you , and miraculously he came back . do n't you think it 's time that you started acting like lucky mattered to you ? luke : oh , shut the hell up . emily : when lucky gets out of here , he 's coming to wyndemere to live with me , and you 'd better be his first visitor , luke . it 's the least he deserves . luke : you know , he deserves a hell of a lot more than to be in that mausoleum with a humorless little package like you , sweetie pie ! elizabeth : do you feel better now ? [ scene_break ] sam : i am not sorry that faith is dead . i only wish she lived long enough to tell sonny where michael is . maybe she was just trying to clear her conscience . courtney : or just hurt him one last time . sam : or maybe faith was trying to work out a deal by telling sonny where michael is . courtney : look , i want to believe that michael 's alive , too . i do n't want of it to be true , but -- oh , god , the more time that passes , the less chance there is that michael 's still alive . sam : courtney , i think all of you get to hope for as long as you need to . courtney : yeah , but what 's the difference between hope and denial ? god , i mean , when -- when are we supposed to stop pretending that everything is going to work out ? when are we supposed to admit the truth and help them deal with their grief ? [ scene_break ] sonny : where 's my son ? lorenzo : i do n't know . reese : i 'll get him to talk . lorenzo : i swear on the soul of my dead niece i had nothing to do with kidnapping your children . ric : get him in an interrogation room , please . carly : listen , i will get him to talk . d.a . lansing said that i could speak to mr. alcazar alone . i did n't believe that you could go this far . lorenzo : you believe this , that i 'm monstrous enough to kidnap your children ? carly : lorenzo , there is a lot of evidence pointing to you . lorenzo : agent marshall is grasping at -- sit down . lorenzo : you believe that i love you ? carly : oh , lorenzo , there are so many kinds of love . lorenzo : yes or no ? carly : yes . lorenzo : carly , i have dreamed of having that love returned ; of spending the rest of my life with you by my side . but given all that , i would rather never see you again than cause harm to your children . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : ok . lucky : you ever try punching a pillow ? elizabeth : what ? lucky : well , it 's the same principle as punching a heavy bag at the gym . it 's what i used to do when i was so angry , i could n't see straight . elizabeth : that 's nice , lucky . i 'm not angry . lucky : you are such a bad liar . just tell me . i guarantee you 'll feel better . elizabeth : this patient , he would n't let me draw blood and he told me that i did n't know what i was talking about . lucky : very nice . it 's quick . believable . now , tell me what you 're really going through . elizabeth : your father made me upset . lucky : join the club . what 'd he say ? elizabeth : well , emily was giving him a hard time because she wants him to reach out to you . lucky : why 'd she bother ? elizabeth : and , of course , luke got defensive and -- lucky : what do you expect ? luke spencer ca n't be criticized by anyone for any reason . elizabeth : i know , but i do n't understand . could n't he see how fragile she is ? i mean , ok , fine , maybe emily was out of line but , god , he just should have bitten his tongue . you have no idea how badly i just wanted to tell him to back off , that emily is dealing with being raped by connor bishop . [ scene_break ] jax : are you familiar with the play `` othello `` ? rachel : somewhat . jax : well , the character iago convinces othello to become suspicious of his wife . he 's one of shakespeare 's most despicable villains . rachel : jax , i would never do anything to undermine your relationship with courtney . jax : then why would you bring up jason ? rachel : i was just about to say that the depth of courtney 's attachments is one of her most attractive qualities . jax : really ? rachel : i mean , would you really want to be with a woman who could just turn her back on the love of her life ? i did n't mean that . i -- and courtney never said that . i was n't saying that -- that jason is the love of courtney 's life . i -- jax : would you like a shovel , rachel , so you can dig yourself a little deeper ? rachel : i 'm just saying that courtney and jason , they have a strong connection , and it 's only natural that at a time of crisis they would seek each other out . [ door opens ] courtney : seems like everywhere i go , there you are . [ scene_break ] sam : tony ? tony , hey . i want to ask you some questions about faith 's final minutes . tony : ok , i 'll do my best . sam : did she say anything at all before she asked to speak to sonny ? tony : no . sam : no ? well , were you with her the entire time ? tony : well , i stepped away to speak with the authorities about her condition , but there was a nurse beside her and she was certain that faith was unconscious from the moment they brought her in until she asked for sonny . sam : is there any way you can give me the nurse 's name ? tony : why are you pursuing this ? sam : well , faith gave sonny a name , or was trying to give sonny a name , and maybe that could help us find michael . tony : all right , the e.r . team is in the staff lounge on break right now . if you want to question them , you tell them i said it was ok . sam : thank you . thank you so much . i appreciate it . brook lynn : hey . sam : hey . brook lynn : look , sam , is there any way i can help ? sam : no , thanks . what i 'm thinking , it 'll probably just go nowhere anyway . brook lynn : come on , just tell me . look , you never know . sam : all right , you know the night that kristina was kidnapped , everyone , of course , thought that i did it , and all that time they wasted investigating me gave faith the chance to kidnap michael and morgan . [ scene_break ] reese : watch alcazar . see how he steps out of the way right before faith is shot ? ric : he 's clearing for the sniper . reese : exactly . sonny : ok , ric , i asked faith -- she was on the table , she was dying -- where michael was . she said something like an `` a `` . ric : you think that she was trying to say `` alcazar `` ? sonny : well , what do you think ? reese : what more do we need ? [ scene_break ] lorenzo : remember the night morgan was born ? that unbelievable storm , power lines down all over the city , you alone in that big , secluded house , frightened out of your mind ? carly : of course i do . you came in ; you told me everything was going to be all right . lorenzo : that 's right , i took you by the hand and i talked you through your labor . and you asked me to make a promise . do you remember what it was ? carly : i made you promise me that if morgan 's life was in danger you would take him to the hospital , even if it meant leaving me behind . lorenzo : right . i gave you my word that i would keep your child alive , even if it meant losing you . now , carly , tell me the truth . how could i make that promise and then kidnap your child -- or his brother and sister ? [ scene_break ] sonny : just before the kidnapping , ric , i was on the island with the boys . i had n't even moved into my place . jason saw -- right -- saw alcazar snooping around my place . reese : enough ? sonny : i 'm just saying this ; i 'm not going to say it again . you either make him talk or i will . ric : give me a minute . did he tell you where to find michael ? carly : jase ? [ scene_break ] ric : would you like to make a statement ? lorenzo : if there 's any way i can help with the investigation , i will . but i refuse to confess to a crime i did n't commit . the charges against me are false . [ scene_break ] carly : i know lorenzo . he can lie to get what he wants , he can be ruthless , but he would not kidnap my kids . sonny : carly -- carly : i 'm sure of it . sonny : carly , when are you going to learn ? i mean , alcazar can get you to do anything . carly : not when it comes to my children . sonny : there 's evidence here . he probably -- you know , him and faith working together , took the kids , and then he killed faith so that way she would shut up . carly : look , there was evidence -- there was evidence against sam too , right , and it was all wrong . she was innocent , jason , and you knew that , and i know this about lorenzo , and investigating him right now is an absolute waste of time . jason : i do n't think lorenzo did it . [ scene_break ] skye : hey , emily ? i have a great idea . why do n't the two of us go out to dinner ? emily : oh , god , you know , i 'd love to , skye , but i have to work . skye : oh , you 've been here all day . you 're not an intern yet . you got to go home sometime . emily : well , you know , the family is still frantic about michael , and i 'm just going to head over there as soon as i 'm done . skye : well , you still have to eat . emily : yeah . skye : we can skip dessert . emily : i 'm sorry , skye , i ca n't . skye : emily , i know there 's a lot going on , you 're worried about the people you love , but i really think that you need to take care of yourself . emily : what do you mean ? skye : well , i mean , you 've just been under a lot of strain lately , and the person that you would normally turn to , your husband , is in prison , and i just think that you need to take the time to feel -- well , whatever it is that you 're feeling . otherwise , you 're just going to drop from all the pressure . emily : you know what , thanks for your concern , skye , but i 'm handling it fine . all i have to do is just stay strong till it 's over . skye : yeah , well , even strong people need help . emily : yeah , well -- skye : emily , please , i just wish you 'd lean on me . emily : i 'll call you if i need help , skye . do n't worry . i 'm doing ok . [ scene_break ] rachel : look , i just came here because i was worried about you . courtney : you saw me at the hospital , rachel . you could have worried about me there . rachel : and i went to the e.r . , but you were just so busy with everyone that you just -- you did n't notice i was there . courtney : look , i know that your intentions are good , and i 'm sorry for jumping on you , but what i need most right now is time alone with jax . rachel : sure . whatever you want . jax : what do you say to a world - class back rub , hmm ? courtney : do i look like i need one ? jax : yes . there 's nothing wrong with that . you have every reason to be tense . courtney : i 'm beyond tense right now , jax . michael is probably dead . [ scene_break ] jason : the sniper left his rifle . it 's untraceable , but he took the scope . carly : wait , why is that important ? jason : well , because if the scope 's custom made , we can i.d . the shooter . sonny : aaron . jason : that 's exactly what i was thinking . reese : peter aaron , professional hit man . very talented sniper who wears glasses and would need a custom scope . jason : yes , and he 's done work for faith 's dead husband . carly : so she was working with him ? jason : well , it 's worth checking out . carly : maybe that was the name that faith was trying to say -- `` aaron . `` sonny : or maybe faith was trying to say `` alcazar . `` reese : we ca n't eliminate any possibilities . if aaron was involved in the kidnapping , then he was working with faith , and he 'd need a place to stay in port charles . this is a list of the apartments and the houses that faith has been known to maintain . we got to check them all out . carly : maybe that 's where they were keeping michael . sonny : ok , right there , right ? jason : mm - hmm ? sonny : you know where to go . jason : yeah , i 'll check it . reese : no , i 'll check it . you can come along , provided you follow instructions and you stay out of the way . you know , i do n't want to get your hopes up , but it 's worth pursuing . ok . carly : this is it , sonny . this is it . they 're going to find the sniper and he 's going to lead us to michael . sonny : aaron is a contract hitter . there 's no reason for him to be involved in a kidnapping . so if he did the shooting , alcazar paid him to . carly : it was n't alcazar , ok ? it was a mistake to arrest him , and i think that reese agrees . sonny : ok , i 'm not going to fight you on this . you know , you 're michael 's mother ; i 'm his father . we 're both going through a lot . you go ahead and believe what you want to believe . [ scene_break ] skye : i know now why you and emily were arguing outside of lucky 's i.c.u . room that day . you were insisting that she get help , and emily did n't want to hear it . she did n't want to admit that she was raped . elizabeth : i 'm sorry , skye , i just ca n't discuss this with you . skye : elizabeth , i know the truth . i heard you talking to lucky . i know that connor raped emily . elizabeth : ok , but emily does n't want anyone to know , ok ? and instead of dealing with this , she 's losing herself in other people 's problems . skye : well , who knows besides you and lucky ? elizabeth : no one . no one . emily does n't even know that lucky 's figured it out . skye : oh , my god . emily is so sweet , so gentle . to be violated like that -- elizabeth : yeah , and the worst part is that she blames herself because she stayed at the safe house , and in no fashion did she give connor any -- emily : there 's nobody to blame but the rapist . rape is unforgivable . i swear , if connor bishop were n't dead , i 'd kill him myself . [ scene_break ] luke : ah , here you are . i understand you wanted to talk to me ? lucky : why were you rude to emily ? luke : oh , i do n't think it 's particularly rude to point out when somebody 's sticking their nose in where it does n't belong . lucky : god , typical luke spencer , the man who 's never wrong . luke : i 've been wrong plenty of times . but it was n't a mistake to unhook you so you could wake up . lucky : i do n't want you bothering emily . you understand ? i want you to stay away from her . luke : ok . i suggest you tell her to stop stalking me with her constant blathering about what 's right and wrong and morally acceptable in her tiny little world . lucky : you know what , you should listen to yourself sometime . anyone who disagrees with you is automatically wrong ? instead of flipping a switch and risking my life , emily saved me , and i am grateful . luke : wonderful . move in with her at wyndemere . when life 's deadly dull , you can console each other with righteous indignation and bible studies . [ scene_break ] steven : what are you doing in here , rachel ? [ scene_break ] courtney : god , i want to believe that michael is alive , but when faith died without telling us where he was , my hope died with her . oh , god , jax . i love being michael 's aunt . you know , i mean , buying him surprise gifts or taking him to awful movies . he 'd talk all the way through them . people would be turning around giving us dirty looks , but michael did n't even notice . jax : i wish i would have known him better . courtney : michael was the heart and soul of our family . you know , from what carly told me , he taught sonny how to be a parent , you know , how to love in a way he never had . oh , god , jax , this is going to destroy them . sonny and carly are never going to be the same . jax : well , they have you to support them . courtney : there 's nothing i can do . i just -- i do n't understand why this had to happen . jax : there is no answer . courtney : you know , every parent loves their child , but with sonny and carly , it went deeper than that . michael was the best of both of them , and they knew it . you know , he was strong and responsible like sonny . he was resilient and inventive like carly , stubborn like both of them . even when sonny and carly were at their worst , screaming and gouging and out of control , they would stop for michael . they 'd remember that they were his parents and he needed them . but they -- they needed him , too . and little morgan is such a sweet little boy , and sonny and carly love him so much , but michael was the center of their lives . jax : my heart goes out to them , and you . courtney : i 'm just the aunt . sonny and carly , jason -- they were michael 's parents . oh , god , you know , every big decision that jason ever made had michael right at the core of it . i do n't -- i do n't know what he 's going to do without him . [ scene_break ] brook lynn : hi . the guards let me in . i hope that was ok . sonny : what can i do for you ? brook lynn : actually , i was wondering if there was anything i could do to help . sonny : yeah , yeah , you can pray for michael . i 'm sure that 's enough . brook lynn : i have been , seriously , since the day he was taken . sonny : can i get you something to drink ? some soda ? brook lynn : no , thanks . no . you know , you probably already know this , but michael thinks that you 're amazing . the night that i was babysitting him , the night that kristina was taken , he told me that no one was as cool as his dad . sonny : yeah , well , he 'll get over it by the time he 's 15 . he wo n't want to know me . brook lynn : um -- i also wanted to apologize again for leaving kristina alone the night that she was kidnapped . sonny : she was sleeping in her father 's house , so she was supposed to be safe . brook lynn : i know , but i think if i was there , then maybe none of this would have happened . sonny : did you throw a party ? did you leave the building ? brook lynn : no . sonny : ok . brook lynn : look , i went into the hall , all right ? i did n't want to wake kristina up , and i just should have told diego to call me back later . sonny : this is not your fault . all right ? faith rosco and lorenzo alcazar wanted to kidnap my kids , and nothing was going to stop them . [ scene_break ] ric : it 's possible that alcazar was n't involved in the kidnapping , but i ca n't ignore the evidence , carly . carly : what evidence ? the fact that lorenzo took a couple steps to the left or the right ? it does n't prove anything . ric : he had a remarkable amount of information about faith 's people and their whereabouts . carly : can i talk to him again ? ric : it 's up to you . carly : lorenzo , ric 's coming around . he admits that you might be innocent . lorenzo : does that mean he 's going to release me ? carly : not yet . lorenzo : what has to happen first ? carly : listen , reese and jason went after the sniper that shot at faith , ok ? if they can get him to talk , then it can all be over really soon . [ scene_break ] reese : wait here . jason : hey , wait a minute ! [ scene_break ] lucky : i 'm moving into wyndemere because emily needs me . it 's not a concept i expect you to understand . luke : no , i do n't but , hey , it 's your life to waste . lucky : and while you waste yours on what ? an endless war with helena while my mother sits in a mental institution ? oh , but i forgot , it is all about you , right , kind of like flipping a switch . luke : you know , they told me there was a danger you 'd end up a vegetable , and i did n't believe them , but i 'll tell you , today you 're making about as much sense as a remedial rutabaga . lucky : and you were right . are n't you , dad ? i mean , you know what you want and you never apologize . i mean , so what if your son 's sitting in a coma . i mean , it 's no fun trading quips with a coma boy , right ? i mean , `` whoa , i got an idea -- let 's turn off the switch . you know what , if he lives , hooray , luke was right . if he dies , oh , well . moving on . `` luke : you could n't be more wrong . lucky : no , dad , you could n't be more wrong . not that you 'll ever admit it . i mean , no one 's ever allowed to criticize you . no one 's ever allowed to tell you to your face that you should be sorry . and you have so much to be sorry for .

[ scene_break ] courtney : jason 's not the most sentimental person . it 's almost impossible to get him to look back or talk about the past , except with michael . jason told me that he used to hold michael when he was baby and he 'd talk to him till he fell asleep . i mean , he could describe the first time he rolled over ; the first time he walked . you know , jason had the sweetest story about the first time michael tasted ice cream . michael was just a little baby , and jason gave him just a little taste . michael got this look on his face like , `` mmm , i like that , i want more . `` michael loved ice cream . hold me . jax : you know , maybe -- maybe i 'm not the man you need tonight .

[ scene_break ] patrick : wow , nice natural light . robin : wow , it 's bigger than it looks from the outside or on the website . patrick : i like the fireplace . robin : yeah , i can tell you do . patrick : it 's nice . robin : i think this place is the answer to our prayers . when do you think we can move in ? patrick : okay , hey , do n't you think we should at least finish looking around before we commit to paying for this for the rest of our lives ? robin : i just have a very good feeling about it . i think we should call the realtor . patrick : okay , robin , slow down . robin : why ? i can feel it . this is our house . i mean , we should just take it before somebody else does and we regret it for the rest of our lives . patrick : first of all , you are going to tell me why you 're pushing so hard . [ scene_break ] jerry : congratulations for making it so far . now , pay attention to the second clue . you 'll sleep sounder when you 've found it . claudia : sleep , sleep . sleep sounder . kate : what on earth are you doing ? [ scene_break ] spinelli : you were out all night . jason : yeah , i know that . so what ? spinelli : well , i was deeply concerned . your disappearance coincided with my release from the clutches of the fbi . so my guess is either you went riding on your bike to shake off any deep seeded anger , or more to the point , you were doing nefarious government business promised in exchange for my release . [ scene_break ] robin : are you exaggerating to make some obscure point ? because i 'm not saying that we should put a down payment on the house without looking at the bathrooms first . patrick : well , that 's how it sounded . sorry if i misunderstood . robin : all i 'm saying is that the house looks good so far . and , yes , i 'm the first to admit i am very motivated to get out of that apartment . i had no idea how much space a baby takes up . and we are surrounded by clutter , which maybe , i do n't know , you 're used to because of all your years of bachelorhood , but for somebody like me who 's neat and tidy , it 's driving me a little bit batty . patrick : i understand , robin , but i just -- robin : you know , do n't patronize me , okay ? we both looked at this house online last night , right ? patrick : right . robin : and we both thought it was great . and now we 're here and we know it 's great , and i just do n't see the point of putting off the inevitable . patrick : so i do n't even get a vote in this anymore ? robin : of course you get a vote , but i can tell you like it . you like it , do n't you ? patrick : in the five minutes we 've been here , yes . i do n't see anything that alarms me , but i think we should maybe look around . i mean , but , you know , do n't let my boring practicality get in the way . robin : fine , then let 's go inspect the house . [ scene_break ] alexis : so here 's what i 'm thinking . i 'm thinking that in the harsh light of the day , this may have been a mistake . okay , i 'm just going to come out and say that it 's highly inappropriate that i should be seeking her out when you are my client and i 'm representing you . you are my primary concern . so it 's really not any of my business to question whether she 's being honest about how much she loves you -- it really should be a lot -- or whether you believe what she 's saying . it 's just none of my business , so i 'm just going to apologize right now for overstepping . carly : amazing . it 's amazing how you can make an apology sound vaguely insulting . jax : i 'm sure carly understands you 're just acting out of concern . carly : yes , yes . acknowledged and accepted . jax : you 're one of my dearest friends , alexis . it would worry me if you were n't concerned about me . no offense , but what goes on between me and carly is really , you know , a personal matter . alexis : no offense taken . i got it . so i 'm going to leave now . jax : okay . carly : okay . alexis : nice flowers . carly : so is she horrified or mortified ? jax : oh , definitely horrified . carly : oh , wow . jax : i mean , i 'm sure that she thinks we spent the night together . carly : i 'm sure she does . and you could have taken pity on alexis and told her she was wrong . why did n't you ? [ scene_break ] claudia : i 'm sorry ; did i miss the part where you were just allowed to stroll into my bedroom whenever you felt like it ? kate : your bedroom ? claudia : yeah , that 's what i said . kate : that 's really funny , claudia , because i do n't see any of your things here . claudia : well , i 'm still moving in . kate : okay , do n't even bother trying . you do n't share this room with sonny , all right ? and sonny will catch you in that lie as soon as he finds out , which will be pretty soon . claudia : oh , but it 's not now , because sonny 's not here . and for the record , my husband and i take turns sleeping and doing whatever else comes naturally in every room of this house -- our business . what it 's not , is any of yours . so why are you here ? kate : i do n't know , claudia , why do n't you think really , really hard . maybe it 's to see sonny . claudia : well , the guard should n't have let you in . i 'll have to talk to him about that . kate : okay , well , you can save your breath because the guards know to let me in , claudia . you may be sonny 's wife legally , but sonny has made it very clear that i am welcome in his home , in his life . i 'm a fact , claudia . i suggest you figure out a way to get used to it . [ scene_break ] maxie : i ca n't believe spinelli 's not returning my phone calls . lulu : you ca n't be surprised . from what you 've told us , you ripped his heart out and pretty much bludgeoned it . maxie : well , rub it in , why do n't you ? i 'm going to be tying myself in knots trying to make up for it . but there 's something bigger going on here , something that takes precedence over everything else . it 's called treason . i 'm never going to be able to get that out of my head , those fbi agents manhandling spinelli , cuffing him . oh , we have to pay rent today . lulu : no , not until the end of the month . maxie : are you going back on our deal ? we said we were going to pay rent a few days early so it does n't fall through the cracks and we end up paying penalties . lulu : i know , but i 'm cash poor right now . so how about half this week and half next week ? maxie : that 's not how rent works and you know it . lulu : what do you want from me ? i only have half . johnny : i 'll kick in the difference . lulu : you do n't have any money either . that 's why you 're looking for a job . johnny : no , i have cash left over from the lease refund . i 'll pay lulu 's half . maxie : well , that works perfect . now is a good time . lulu : no , absolutely not . [ scene_break ] jason : the situation is being handled . that 's all you need to know . spinelli : i do n't think that 's particularly fair . jason : you can think whatever you want to think , just stay out of trouble . no more hacking into government files . no more hacking at all . spinelli : i 'm painfully aware of my narrow escape . i realize that i was inches away from being swept out of my happy existence and into the maw of the federal criminal justice system , but i was undeniably guilty of the charges against me . the penalties were clear and irrefutable . incarceration was imminent . and then all of a sudden , the federal ones did an about face . i was set free , and it could n't have been because you asked nicely . some major concession had to be made , and i just fear that stone cold compromised -- jason : spinelli ! we are not discussing this . spinelli : well , the jackal can only interpret stone cold 's unaccustomed snappishness as proof that he has indeed entered an unholy alliance with the federal ones on my behalf . jason : okay , spinelli , you 're a great friend , okay ? you 're somebody that i trust and that i rely on . the problem is that i relied on you too much . i mean , you 're so smart that i forget that you 're a kid , that you 're eager to please , that you want to help and you want to play a part , and that 's exactly what you did . you helped me so much that i lost sight of what working for me could cost you . spinelli : you did n't force me into anything -- jason : i took advantage of you . i put you in harm 's way , and i just want to say that i 'm sorry for that , okay ? it was wrong . i ca n't undo what 's happened , but what i can do and what i will do is i 'm going to watch your back . so no more talking about business and no more questions , okay ? spinelli : the jackal , as usual , obeys . [ scene_break ] [ knock at door ] sam : hey . lucky : hey . sam : well , how 'd it go last night ? lucky : cam , he was exhausted . he was out like a light as soon as he hit the bed . sam : good . that 's good . i mean , it 's not every day you get to have a picnic at night and see the parade of lights . lucky : yeah . so were you able to fix what was going on with spinelli ? sam : yeah , i mean , i do n't know . it seems to be okay right now . i just have a feeling it 's not going to stay that way . lucky : well , i would n't lose any sleep over it . sam : wow , that 's a charming thing to say . lucky : you know spinelli has influential friends , and i 'm sure jason will twist the law to get him out of any trouble that he 's in . sam : would you like to help me fill out this application ? lucky : application for what ? sam : well , i have decided to go for my p.i . license . what ? lucky : did it ever occur that you might want to discuss this with me first ? [ scene_break ] patrick : well , did you see anything to change your mind ? robin : no , i did n't . did you ? patrick : nope . i mean , it 's big enough for us spread out , but not too overwhelming . classic architecture , which i prefer , newly remodeled kitchen , big backyard . plus , that oak tree is plenty big for emma 's first little tree house . two car garage -- enough room to tinker . robin : tinker ? come on , we both know that you are helpless at fixing things . patrick : okay , with the exception of cars . so i guess we could continue to look around , but the house is good . the price is right . robin : i love this house . i love this neighborhood . and at the risk of sounding pushy , i want to move in as soon as possible . [ scene_break ] claudia : here 's something to think about . if you 're such a huge fact of sonny 's life , how come you did n't know he was n't here ? i mean , should n't you be intimately familiar with his comings and goings at all times ? kate : yeah , you 're probably right about one thing , claudia . i should n't be here . next time i 'll just have sonny come to me . you know , skip the middle man altogether . claudia : good , you do that . beg , cry , whine , plead for him to come back to you . who knows , kate , you might catch him in a moment of weakness . but here 's a tip -- he does n't have a lot of those anymore . kate : but sonny loves me still , always . claudia : maybe . maybe . unfortunately for you , love does n't rank high on sonny 's list of priorities . for instance , it ranks well below power . power -- that 's sonny 's favorite . that 's what he gets from being married to me . so no matter how much you hope or wish for it , he 's not going to divorce me , kate . that pretty much relegates you to the role of mistress , does n't it ? which , by the way , i 'm fine with that . [ kate chuckles ] kate : really ? claudia : mm - hmm . whatever works for my husband , that 's what i 'm about . but here 's another tip . the mistress does n't barge into the bedroom . the mistress accepts her secondary position on the ladder of respect , something that my husband and i are really big on . and the mistress stays out of the wife 's face . got it ? bye - bye . kate : wow , okay , well , now that i 'm all familiar on mob rules , i 'll be sure to tell sonny that i saw you searching his room . claudia : do that . kate : bye - bye . [ scene_break ] carly : share . jax : what ? no . carly : tell me . why did you let alexis leave here thinking that we had spent the night together when we did n't ? jax : i do n't have to explain myself to alexis . this is my personal life . if she wants to jump to conclusions without knowing all the facts , then how am i to stop her ? carly : all right , it 's driving me crazy that i can see things from alexis ' point of view , but she has a right to be concerned . jax : really . carly : yeah . jax : how is that ? carly : well , i mean , she 's repping you in the divorce . if you and i are intimate , well , that means the divorce is off the table , right ? jax : well , that has n't definitely been decided yet , so -- carly : oh . you 're paying her a lot of money to stall the divorce . jax : well , it 's because i know that my instincts are good . carly : really . jax : yeah , i think that we have a real good shot at getting back together or at least moving in the right direction . so let alexis and diane rack up the billable hours , and we 'll just continue what we 're doing . we 'll keep the momentum going , you know -- if that 's okay with you . carly : works , works for me . jax : good . okay , well , i have to get back to the hotel . carly : okay . thanks for coming by and setting up morgan 's v - tech v - motion . thank you . jax : anytime . carly : okay . jax : okay . i 'll see you later . [ scene_break ] sam : would you like me to be honest ? lucky : always better than a lie . sam : okay , the answer is no , it did not occur to me to consult you . lucky , this is a life decision about me that has to be made by me . lucky : well , i thought us being a couple meant all important decisions affect us both . sam : well , i 'm very sorry if you felt left out . it certainly was n't my intention , but i have just come to the realization that i am uniquely qualified to be a p.i . shall i count the ways ? lucky : yeah , i 'm listening . sam : okay , let 's see . i am pretty good at running cons . i know how to research a subject . i 'm pretty cool under pressure , yeah ? i 'm sort of a jack of all trades . and guess what ? i know how to work a firearm . lucky : i think this whole p.i . license just justifies putting yourself in dangerous situations . just curious , will this job include hot - tubbing with the men you 're investigating ? sam : oh , that 's really nice , lucky . throw jerry in my face any chance that you can get . i thought that you 'd forgiven me for this , but i guess i was wrong . lucky : no , i thought i could if you actually wanted to be forgiven , but you think what you did was just fine . [ scene_break ] [ claudia groans ] spinelli : mr. sir ? spinelli : mr. sir ? [ claudia screams ] spinelli : i 'm sorry . claudia : what the hell are you doing here ? you scared the crap out of me . spinelli : i did n't mean to alarm vixenella . i only wish to speak to mr. sir about a matter of paramount -- claudia : next time you use the doorbell or you 're going to end up dead . [ scene_break ] jason : no . information , bernie , okay ? that is the new priority . i need to know who the zaccharas are working with , what 's on the ships that they are landing . no , no , i do not want you to intercept the shipments , okay ? i need intel . that 's what i need right now , anything and everything on the zaccharas that you can get me . hold on , i got another -- you know what ? just get back to me as a fast as you can , okay ? i got another call . yeah ? no , no , i 'm at home . you should n't come here . okay , fine . i 'll be waiting to see you . [ knock at door ] carly : are you okay ? jason : yeah , i 'm fine . carly : i heard something break , jason . jason : that 's -- it 's fine . i 'm just , you know , i 'm venting . carly : well , that 's not fine because you do n't vent . that 's out of character for you . okay , i 'm sorry that i did n't help you set up that meeting with sonny last night . did you see him on your own ? jason : yeah , i saw him . it was a complete waste of time jason : you know , you did the right thing last night by not getting involved , and i 'm actually sorry that i asked you and i 'm really glad that you just turned me down . carly : i did n't have a choice . i want jax in my life and i ca n't get caught up in sonny 's drama again , but that does n't mean i do n't care , jason . jason : yeah , i know . i know that . carly : okay , you 're calm and steady in the worst of times , so if you start throwing objects across the room , things must be pretty bad . jason : i never -- i never looked at sonny as an enemy . you know , i never hated him . i never wished him any harm no matter how wrong he was . i 've always considered him to be my best friend and things are changing . and i do n't think i can look at him that way any more . so i have to realistically decide right now how far i have to go to protect him . carly : i do n't understand . protect him from what ? jason : from himself , from his destructive choices . i mean , who am i to talk , right ? look at the choices i 've made . you know , just -- they catch up to you , you know ? one way or the other , they 're going to catch up to you . carly : stop talking to me in riddles and tell me what 's going on . jason : i ca n't tell you anything . and i do n't want you to worry because i know what i 'm doing , okay ? i 'm just -- you know what ? i 'm glad that things are going good for you in your life . are you and jax getting back together ? carly : it 's not official . you know , we put the divorce on hold . i 'm hopeful . jason : that 's great . that 's great . good . so you just dropped by for what , exactly ? carly : okay , well , i came by to remind you that the benefit to kick off the michael corinthos fund for pediatric head injuries is tomorrow night . jason : all right , so you 're looking forward to that , right ? carly : yeah , i am . i do n't expect you to put on a suit and hang out with the good people of port charles , but i do expect a big fat donation . mostly , i came here so i could tell you face to face that i love you and i really hope whatever you 're struggling with right now does n't cause you too much pain . jason : yeah . [ scene_break ] spinelli : the jackal was under the apparently mistaken impression that his relationship with the vixenella was a cordial , even friendly one , so why would she threaten him with death ? claudia : i 'm sorry . spinelli , i 'm sorry i snapped . i like you . i really do . i do . um -- you work for jason and jason just made a whole lot trouble for sonny by blowing up this vital shipment , so there is an ugly confrontation coming . it 's going to be sonny against jason . and until it 's over , you 're in the enemy camp . so sonny 's not going to want to see you or hear from you . and the guards are about to get their asses handed to them for letting you on the property . they are going to be more cautious next time and might be trigger - happy . and the last thing i want to do is walk up on you with a bullet in your head in the courtyard , so , you know , do n't tempt fate . go away and do n't come back until it 's over . spinelli : i see your point and will comply with your request , but i do request something in return . if you could ask mr. sir to call me , it is a matter of utmost importance . claudia : okay , i 'll ask , but i ca n't guarantee that you 're going to hear from him . [ scene_break ] sam : okay , i know you do n't agree with me , but yes , i believe it was the right thing to do to go after jerry . because if i had n't , what would he be doing right now ? he would be creating havoc all over town . and no , i 'm not particularly proud of the methods that i had to use , but guess what , lucky ? i went with what got results . lucky : the end justifies the means ? sam : in this case , absolutely . lucky : yes , and all other cases that you will come across in your new career . sam : will you do me a big favor and please , please just try and look past how much you hate my recent decisions and see it from my perspective ? i am a fiercely independent woman with very limited job prospects . being a p.i . is one of the few things i 'm actually suited for , and guess what ? i was really very excited to pursue it . and i was hoping , i was praying that i would get your support instead of you being judgmental , or is that too much to ask for ? [ knock at door ] sam : great . alexis : hi . well , did i come at a bad time ? lucky : no , your timing could n't be better . i 'm sure you and your mom have lots to talk about . sam : oh , yeah . alexis : i think he was in a bad mood . sam : lucky does not want me to be a p.i . i 'm sure you want to weigh in , too . [ scene_break ] robin : wow . we just bought a house . patrick : nervous yet ? robin : i 'm a little dizzy . [ robin chuckles ] robin : i feel very -- i feel very adult . patrick : yes , yes , definitely the biggest single purchase of my life . robin : i know , and it happened so quickly . i ca n't believe the realtor said we could move right in because it 's unoccupied and our escrow is going to be so short . patrick : okay , so any buyer 's remorse we should talk about ? robin : no . no , i ca n't wait to move in . i think it 's going to make all the difference . patrick : okay , come here . one little thing here that i ca n't seem to wrap my head around . robin : what ? patrick : we actually have a white picket fence . [ knock at door ] robin : oh , look . our first visitor . hello . elizabeth : hey . i thought i recognized your car in the driveway . are you guys thinking about buying this house ? patrick : we were . robin : and then we did . howdy , neighbor . patrick : just so you know , proximity to you was a definite point in the house 's favor . elizabeth : i just ca n't believe you guys are my new neighbors . and this house is amazing . it 's a little sudden , though , is n't it ? robin : well , sometimes it happens that way , right ? elizabeth : well , then when are you moving in ? patrick : as soon as we can arrange it . elizabeth : let me think , what can i tell you ? you 're not living blocks away from the hospital anymore . this is the other side of town . but our street practically has no traffic , which is really great for the kids . however , we are the last to get snow plowed , so you better invest in a blower or shovel or something , because you know the storm 's coming . patrick : that is a good point . see , these are things we have to think about as new homeowners . i 'm going to going to go to the garage and see if the other owners left anything of use . robin : okay . robin : what have we done ? [ scene_break ] lulu : i was specifically told not to accept any excuses -- kate 's word , not mine . bottom line , their deadline is non - negotiable . if those sketches are not on kate 's desk first thing tomorrow , you 're history . sorry . good luck . carly : wow , kate sounds like a fun lady to work for . lulu : you have no idea . carly : all right , what 's so important that brought you here in the middle of a work afternoon ? lulu : um , this is really hard for me . i hate to ask anybody for anything . carly : i hate that , too . lulu : um , i -- i want to be independent . it 's extremely important to me . um -- carly : can i -- can i save you the pain ? you want to borrow some money . lulu : i 'm a little short , and maxie insists on paying the rent early . carly : come on , you can have whatever you want . lulu : thank you , thank you . i will pay you back , i swear . and i know you 'll let me . that 's why i 'm asking you and not nikolas , because he would sweep in and buy the building i 'm renting and put a million dollars into an account for me . carly : wow , see , that 's the difference between you and me . if i had a sinfully rich brother who offered to buy me a building , i 'd say okay . lulu : no , i do not believe that for a second . you 're the most independent woman i know . you totally stand on your own . that 's what i 'm going to do . that 's what johnny 's doing . he 's out getting a job right now . [ scene_break ] epiphany : i suggest that you take a couple of classes at the local junior college . it will help since you have , well , no real experience . johnny : okay , but i thought the only requirement for an orderly position was a high school diploma . epiphany : that 's true , but times are tough . look , two convalescent hospitals closed a couple of months ago . that put a surplus of over - qualified candidates back out on the market , which means that people are considering jobs that they would n't have before . i 'm sorry , john . i have a feeling that you would have made an exemplary employee and i wish i could hire you . johnny : so do i . epiphany : look , why do n't i keep your information on file and let you know if anything changes . johnny : okay , i appreciate you being so nice , but i 'd rather have honesty . i do n't stand a chance , do i ? epiphany : with your lack of experience and education , not really . [ scene_break ] sam : i have always been a disaster when it comes to office work . alexis : i remember . sam : and my very brief brush with fame as miss everyday heroine -- you know what ? that convinced me that i never , ever , ever , want to take the road of show business ever again . alexis : you do n't have to justify your choice to me . if you want a p.i . 's license , then go for it . sam : i am sorry . i still think i 'm in my conversation with lucky . do you know what he said to me ? he thinks that i get off on putting myself in dangerous situations . and you know what ? he may be right . but guess what i have learned over the past ? that i am not going to make myself over for anybody else because it never , ever turns out well in the end . alexis : i agree . in fact , i think you go at something with honesty about yourself , about other people . it 's an honorable way to live . and to whatever extent that i can help you , i will . sam : wow . that was a nice surprise . alexis : what ? sam : i do n't know . i just , um , i expected you to resist , i guess . alexis : nope . nothing . sam : well , that 's good . thank you . i just , um , you know , i wanted you to know where i was coming from . alexis : i appreciate that . and in that spirit , i want to tell you that i know that you 're friends with spinelli , and he is in some big trouble . and it 's out of my jurisdiction , so i ca n't help him , and i thought maybe you 'd just want to know . sam : thank you . i do know . i found out last night . but thank you for caring enough to tell me . [ scene_break ] [ knock at door ] spinelli : hey . maxie : spinelli ! oh , my god , why have n't you returned my phone calls ? i 've been so worried about you . spinelli : i 'm really sorry to have alarmed maximista , but i fear i 'm not done . i bring most unsettling tidings . maxie : the feds can not still be after you . jason said he fixed that . spinelli : indeed , he did . there 's been no subsequent contact from the feds , but i have this sinking suspicion that stone cold either placed himself in grave danger or betrayed his moral code to affect my rescue . maxie : i can see how you 'd be worried . i 'm sure you came with a big price tag on your head , but you have to keep remembering that it was jason 's decision to make . and you trust him , right ? spinelli : implicitly . maxie : did he tell you to stay out of it and that it was handled ? spinelli : yes . maxie : then please , believe him , spinelli . he just wants to make sure you 're safe . let him . for my sake , if not for yours , please , just let him .

[ scene_break ] spinelli : you were out all night . jason : yeah , i know that . so what ? spinelli : well , i was deeply concerned . your disappearance coincided with my release from the clutches of the fbi . so my guess is either you went riding on your bike to shake off any deep seeded anger , or more to the point , you were doing nefarious government business promised in exchange for my release . [ scene_break ] robin : are you exaggerating to make some obscure point ? because i 'm not saying that we should put a down payment on the house without looking at the bathrooms first . patrick : well , that 's how it sounded . sorry if i misunderstood . robin : all i 'm saying is that the house looks good so far . and , yes , i 'm the first to admit i am very motivated to get out of that apartment . i had no idea how much space a baby takes up . and we are surrounded by clutter , which maybe , i do n't know , you 're used to because of all your years of bachelorhood , but for somebody like me who 's neat and tidy , it 's driving me a little bit batty . patrick : i understand , robin , but i just -- robin : you know , do n't patronize me , okay ? we both looked at this house online last night , right ? patrick : right . robin : and we both thought it was great . and now we 're here and we know it 's great , and i just do n't see the point of putting off the inevitable . patrick : so i do n't even get a vote in this anymore ? robin : of course you get a vote , but i can tell you like it . you like it , do n't you ? patrick : in the five minutes we 've been here , yes . i do n't see anything that alarms me , but i think we should maybe look around . i mean , but , you know , do n't let my boring practicality get in the way . robin : fine , then let 's go inspect the house . [ scene_break ] alexis : so here 's what i 'm thinking . i 'm thinking that in the harsh light of the day , this may have been a mistake . okay , i 'm just going to come out and say that it 's highly inappropriate that i should be seeking her out when you are my client and i 'm representing you . you are my primary concern . so it 's really not any of my business to question whether she 's being honest about how much she loves you -- it really should be a lot -- or whether you believe what she 's saying . it 's just none of my business , so i 'm just going to apologize right now for overstepping . carly : amazing . it 's amazing how you can make an apology sound vaguely insulting . jax : i 'm sure carly understands you 're just acting out of concern . carly : yes , yes . acknowledged and accepted . jax : you 're one of my dearest friends , alexis . it would worry me if you were n't concerned about me . no offense , but what goes on between me and carly is really , you know , a personal matter . alexis : no offense taken . i got it . so i 'm going to leave now . jax : okay . carly : okay . alexis : nice flowers . carly : so is she horrified or mortified ? jax : oh , definitely horrified . carly : oh , wow . jax : i mean , i 'm sure that she thinks we spent the night together . carly : i 'm sure she does . and you could have taken pity on alexis and told her she was wrong . why did n't you ? [ scene_break ] claudia : i 'm sorry ; did i miss the part where you were just allowed to stroll into my bedroom whenever you felt like it ? kate : your bedroom ? claudia : yeah , that 's what i said . kate : that 's really funny , claudia , because i do n't see any of your things here . claudia : well , i 'm still moving in . kate : okay , do n't even bother trying . you do n't share this room with sonny , all right ? and sonny will catch you in that lie as soon as he finds out , which will be pretty soon . claudia : oh , but it 's not now , because sonny 's not here . and for the record , my husband and i take turns sleeping and doing whatever else comes naturally in every room of this house -- our business . what it 's not , is any of yours . so why are you here ? kate : i do n't know , claudia , why do n't you think really , really hard . maybe it 's to see sonny . claudia : well , the guard should n't have let you in . i 'll have to talk to him about that . kate : okay , well , you can save your breath because the guards know to let me in , claudia . you may be sonny 's wife legally , but sonny has made it very clear that i am welcome in his home , in his life . i 'm a fact , claudia . i suggest you figure out a way to get used to it . [ scene_break ] maxie : i ca n't believe spinelli 's not returning my phone calls . lulu : you ca n't be surprised . from what you 've told us , you ripped his heart out and pretty much bludgeoned it . maxie : well , rub it in , why do n't you ? i 'm going to be tying myself in knots trying to make up for it . but there 's something bigger going on here , something that takes precedence over everything else . it 's called treason . i 'm never going to be able to get that out of my head , those fbi agents manhandling spinelli , cuffing him . oh , we have to pay rent today . lulu : no , not until the end of the month . maxie : are you going back on our deal ? we said we were going to pay rent a few days early so it does n't fall through the cracks and we end up paying penalties . lulu : i know , but i 'm cash poor right now . so how about half this week and half next week ? maxie : that 's not how rent works and you know it . lulu : what do you want from me ? i only have half . johnny : i 'll kick in the difference . lulu : you do n't have any money either . that 's why you 're looking for a job . johnny : no , i have cash left over from the lease refund . i 'll pay lulu 's half . maxie : well , that works perfect . now is a good time . lulu : no , absolutely not . [ scene_break ] jason : the situation is being handled . that 's all you need to know . spinelli : i do n't think that 's particularly fair . jason : you can think whatever you want to think , just stay out of trouble . no more hacking into government files . no more hacking at all . spinelli : i 'm painfully aware of my narrow escape . i realize that i was inches away from being swept out of my happy existence and into the maw of the federal criminal justice system , but i was undeniably guilty of the charges against me . the penalties were clear and irrefutable . incarceration was imminent . and then all of a sudden , the federal ones did an about face . i was set free , and it could n't have been because you asked nicely . some major concession had to be made , and i just fear that stone cold compromised -- jason : spinelli ! we are not discussing this . spinelli : well , the jackal can only interpret stone cold 's unaccustomed snappishness as proof that he has indeed entered an unholy alliance with the federal ones on my behalf . jason : okay , spinelli , you 're a great friend , okay ? you 're somebody that i trust and that i rely on . the problem is that i relied on you too much . i mean , you 're so smart that i forget that you 're a kid , that you 're eager to please , that you want to help and you want to play a part , and that 's exactly what you did . you helped me so much that i lost sight of what working for me could cost you . spinelli : you did n't force me into anything -- jason : i took advantage of you . i put you in harm 's way , and i just want to say that i 'm sorry for that , okay ? it was wrong . i ca n't undo what 's happened , but what i can do and what i will do is i 'm going to watch your back . so no more talking about business and no more questions , okay ? spinelli : the jackal , as usual , obeys . [ scene_break ] [ knock at door ] sam : hey . lucky : hey . sam : well , how 'd it go last night ? lucky : cam , he was exhausted . he was out like a light as soon as he hit the bed . sam : good . that 's good . i mean , it 's not every day you get to have a picnic at night and see the parade of lights . lucky : yeah . so were you able to fix what was going on with spinelli ? sam : yeah , i mean , i do n't know . it seems to be okay right now . i just have a feeling it 's not going to stay that way . lucky : well , i would n't lose any sleep over it . sam : wow , that 's a charming thing to say . lucky : you know spinelli has influential friends , and i 'm sure jason will twist the law to get him out of any trouble that he 's in . sam : would you like to help me fill out this application ? lucky : application for what ? sam : well , i have decided to go for my p.i . license . what ? lucky : did it ever occur that you might want to discuss this with me first ? [ scene_break ] patrick : well , did you see anything to change your mind ? robin : no , i did n't . did you ? patrick : nope . i mean , it 's big enough for us spread out , but not too overwhelming . classic architecture , which i prefer , newly remodeled kitchen , big backyard . plus , that oak tree is plenty big for emma 's first little tree house . two car garage -- enough room to tinker . robin : tinker ? come on , we both know that you are helpless at fixing things . patrick : okay , with the exception of cars . so i guess we could continue to look around , but the house is good . the price is right . robin : i love this house . i love this neighborhood . and at the risk of sounding pushy , i want to move in as soon as possible . [ scene_break ] claudia : here 's something to think about . if you 're such a huge fact of sonny 's life , how come you did n't know he was n't here ? i mean , should n't you be intimately familiar with his comings and goings at all times ? kate : yeah , you 're probably right about one thing , claudia . i should n't be here . next time i 'll just have sonny come to me . you know , skip the middle man altogether . claudia : good , you do that . beg , cry , whine , plead for him to come back to you . who knows , kate , you might catch him in a moment of weakness . but here 's a tip -- he does n't have a lot of those anymore . kate : but sonny loves me still , always . claudia : maybe . maybe . unfortunately for you , love does n't rank high on sonny 's list of priorities . for instance , it ranks well below power . power -- that 's sonny 's favorite . that 's what he gets from being married to me . so no matter how much you hope or wish for it , he 's not going to divorce me , kate . that pretty much relegates you to the role of mistress , does n't it ? which , by the way , i 'm fine with that . [ kate chuckles ] kate : really ? claudia : mm - hmm . whatever works for my husband , that 's what i 'm about . but here 's another tip . the mistress does n't barge into the bedroom . the mistress accepts her secondary position on the ladder of respect , something that my husband and i are really big on . and the mistress stays out of the wife 's face . got it ? bye - bye . kate : wow , okay , well , now that i 'm all familiar on mob rules , i 'll be sure to tell sonny that i saw you searching his room . claudia : do that . kate : bye - bye . [ scene_break ] carly : share . jax : what ? no . carly : tell me . why did you let alexis leave here thinking that we had spent the night together when we did n't ? jax : i do n't have to explain myself to alexis . this is my personal life . if she wants to jump to conclusions without knowing all the facts , then how am i to stop her ? carly : all right , it 's driving me crazy that i can see things from alexis ' point of view , but she has a right to be concerned . jax : really . carly : yeah . jax : how is that ? carly : well , i mean , she 's repping you in the divorce . if you and i are intimate , well , that means the divorce is off the table , right ? jax : well , that has n't definitely been decided yet , so -- carly : oh . you 're paying her a lot of money to stall the divorce . jax : well , it 's because i know that my instincts are good . carly : really . jax : yeah , i think that we have a real good shot at getting back together or at least moving in the right direction . so let alexis and diane rack up the billable hours , and we 'll just continue what we 're doing . we 'll keep the momentum going , you know -- if that 's okay with you . carly : works , works for me . jax : good . okay , well , i have to get back to the hotel . carly : okay . thanks for coming by and setting up morgan 's v - tech v - motion . thank you . jax : anytime . carly : okay . jax : okay . i 'll see you later . [ scene_break ] sam : would you like me to be honest ? lucky : always better than a lie . sam : okay , the answer is no , it did not occur to me to consult you . lucky , this is a life decision about me that has to be made by me . lucky : well , i thought us being a couple meant all important decisions affect us both . sam : well , i 'm very sorry if you felt left out . it certainly was n't my intention , but i have just come to the realization that i am uniquely qualified to be a p.i . shall i count the ways ? lucky : yeah , i 'm listening . sam : okay , let 's see . i am pretty good at running cons . i know how to research a subject . i 'm pretty cool under pressure , yeah ? i 'm sort of a jack of all trades . and guess what ? i know how to work a firearm . lucky : i think this whole p.i . license just justifies putting yourself in dangerous situations . just curious , will this job include hot - tubbing with the men you 're investigating ? sam : oh , that 's really nice , lucky . throw jerry in my face any chance that you can get . i thought that you 'd forgiven me for this , but i guess i was wrong . lucky : no , i thought i could if you actually wanted to be forgiven , but you think what you did was just fine .

[ scene_break ] spinelli : the jackal was under the apparently mistaken impression that his relationship with the vixenella was a cordial , even friendly one , so why would she threaten him with death ? claudia : i 'm sorry . spinelli , i 'm sorry i snapped . i like you . i really do . i do . um -- you work for jason and jason just made a whole lot trouble for sonny by blowing up this vital shipment , so there is an ugly confrontation coming . it 's going to be sonny against jason . and until it 's over , you 're in the enemy camp . so sonny 's not going to want to see you or hear from you . and the guards are about to get their asses handed to them for letting you on the property . they are going to be more cautious next time and might be trigger - happy . and the last thing i want to do is walk up on you with a bullet in your head in the courtyard , so , you know , do n't tempt fate . go away and do n't come back until it 's over . spinelli : i see your point and will comply with your request , but i do request something in return . if you could ask mr. sir to call me , it is a matter of utmost importance . claudia : okay , i 'll ask , but i ca n't guarantee that you 're going to hear from him . [ scene_break ] sam : okay , i know you do n't agree with me , but yes , i believe it was the right thing to do to go after jerry . because if i had n't , what would he be doing right now ? he would be creating havoc all over town . and no , i 'm not particularly proud of the methods that i had to use , but guess what , lucky ? i went with what got results . lucky : the end justifies the means ? sam : in this case , absolutely . lucky : yes , and all other cases that you will come across in your new career . sam : will you do me a big favor and please , please just try and look past how much you hate my recent decisions and see it from my perspective ? i am a fiercely independent woman with very limited job prospects . being a p.i . is one of the few things i 'm actually suited for , and guess what ? i was really very excited to pursue it . and i was hoping , i was praying that i would get your support instead of you being judgmental , or is that too much to ask for ?

cane : i 'm envisioning pushing brash & sassy 's market further into the pacific northwest where there 's a market share we can still capitalize on . now , what i 'm thinking is , the analytics suggest that we take local pro sports stars and we couple them with models wearing brash -- billy . you listening ? billy : yeah . yeah , cane , i heard every boring word you said . cane : okay . so what do you got there ? is that the marketing plan ? billy : it 's a board meeting agenda for jack and neil 's foundation . cane : really ? so you 're on the board now , huh ? since when ? when did that happen ? billy : this afternoon if they vote me in , which they will . what 's that face for ? cane : nothing . i 'm just , uh , trying to figure out why all of a sudden you became so interested in charity , that 's all . phyllis : thank you . i will take a look at this before the board meeting . jack : you busy ? phyllis : i am insane , but it is all work - related . i just need to finish up a few things before -- jack : okay , well , i 'll get out of your hair . you do n't want to be late . we 're voting in a new board member . phyllis : hi , nick . nick : hey , uh , sorry to interrupt . i need to talk to you . jack : you know what ? your timing is perfect . i 'm on my way out . i 'll see you later . phyllis : okay . i 'll be there . what 's up ? is it summer ? everything okay ? nick : well , that depends . are you ready to be a grandmother again ? summer : okay , look , before we freak out , we do n't know for sure that i am actually pregnant . we just know that i am late , which would n't normally be a big deal , but with me , that rarely happens . luca : how rare is rare ? summer : i do n't know . like ... never . i mean , how did i not notice this until now ? i 'm like a whole week late . luca : now , look , we used protection , right ? summer : yeah . luca : and i thought you were on birth control . summer : no , i am . there 's a reason why they say that that 's only like 99 % effective or whatever the statistic is . [ sighs ] oh , my god . luca , we -- we are the statistic . luca : okay , maybe -- look , maybe not . you have been under a lot of stress lately , right , what with victor and his trial . summer : no , that 's like a vacation compared to some of the stress that i 've been through in my life . and even then , i have never been late . we need to deal with this , luca . unless i 'm on my own ? luca : what ? no , summer . summer : because right now it looks like you want to run as fast as you can and never look back . neil : whoa , there she is , my baby girl . thank you for letting us use your office as a board room . lily : no problem . hand me the agendas . i 'll help you set up . neil : okay , very good . and you know what ? this is gon na give us some much- needed time , one - on - one time , to , uh , to talk . lily : [ chuckles ] neil : how lucky am i ? lily : oh , so lucky . you know , if you want to hang out more , actually , i could use some help with charlie and mattie now that cane started this new job . neil : i am all over that like white on rice . lily : oh , good . they 'll be so excited . [ cell phone chimes ] lily : [ sighs ] i keep getting these alerts from gc buzz . must be some socialite who went out without makeup or something . neil : the horror . lily , what is it ? lily : [ sighs ] this does not look good . lois : oh , there they are . mr. and mrs. hamilton , lois thompson . i just have a couple of questions . devon : my wife and i have no comment . lois : uh , patients who took part in your drug trial have filed a lawsuit , patients who thought their lives would be changed , and then whoops -- just kidding . and you do n't have a comment ? why have n't you offered a settlement to these poor souls ? do n't you two want to make things right ? devon : listen , you ca n't just -- hilary : if you had done your homework , you would know that my husband and i are completely blameless . lois : `` completely `` is a bit of a stretch , do n't you think ? you promised these people a cure . hilary : no , we did not promise anything . we worked very hard to bring a drug to market that would hopefully help people . unfortunately , it did n't work out that way . lois : that sounds like some `` cover my butt `` p.r . rhetoric to me . hilary : there 's a reason why it 's called trials , mrs. thompson . sometimes they work . sometimes they do n't . that 's a fact . lois : well , it 's not that cut and dry for the patients or the fda , who was backing them . they say there 's some evidence of tampering , not to mention false reports filed with the government . hilary : sadly , that is true , but , again , my husband and i , we are not responsible . lois : you backed the study . hilary : yes , but we were n't conducting it . unfortunately , the -- the falsifications and the tampering , it was the work of a rogue employee who was trying to cover up his lack of results . lois : hmm . and his name is ? devon : hilary . lois : oh , i see . so you 're comfortable hiding the identity of the rogue employee . hilary : no , no , not at all . his name is dr. simon neville . my husband and i , we were both his victims . ashley : i 'm sorry . that is -- excuse me -- hardly the whole story . billy : you have a problem with me joining the foundation , cane ? cane : uh , no . i mean , do n't you think you 're spreading yourself maybe a little too thin ? billy : see , there 's this thing called multitasking . it 's where people can do two things at one time . cane : some people , billy . some people . billy : but not me , cane ? is that what you 're saying ? cane : look , i do n't mean to dwell on this , okay , but , you know , you had nothing -- nothing -- on your plate , and you still managed to drop the ball on brash & sassy , right ? and as a result , jill took over the company . you remember that . billy : and she made us co - c.e.o.s . cane : yeah . billy : yeah , and i 'm not gon na deny that i dropped the ball , but that 's not gon na happen again . you can count on it . cane : [ laughs ] sorry . i should n't laugh at you . look , i want to be honest with you about something , all right ? 'cause i 'm genuinely curious about this . what got you so distracted that you 'd completely neglect your own company ? billy : jack . hey , we were just talking about you , or the foundation , more specifically . jack : i can still count on you being at that board meeting later ? billy : i do n't see anything or anyone getting in the way of that . nick : i was just about to walk in , and i heard them talking . i heard summer say to luca she 's late . phyllis : that 's great . nick : how is that great ? phyllis : i just mean it 's not necessarily a done deal . did she sound like she knew anything for sure ? nick : no . phyllis : okay . okay , then we 're probably freaking out over nothing . she may not even be pregnant . by the way , i am freaking out . nick : yeah , join the club . phyllis : [ sighs ] i mean , you do n't think that they were planning this , do you ? nick : i do n't think so . summer sounded anxious . phyllis : she should be anxious . getting pregnant with that sleazeball ? nick : we do n't know anything for sure . phyllis : okay , all right . i just -- i can not believe that you actually walked away after hearing what you heard . nick : well , it took everything in me not to run in there and start firing off some questions , but i knew that 'd be a mistake . phyllis : really good thinking on your part , but this luca -- this is not -- this is n't good . nick : we were almost rid of him weeks ago , remember ? then he sweet - talked summer into reconsidering . phyllis : yeah , well , so much for our plan of killing him with kindness . we should have just killed him . nick : i still might do that . phyllis : at least we should have been more proactive . i mean , forget the hands - off approach . summer needed to know who she was dating . it was on us to tell her . nick : [ chuckles ] god . phyllis : do not tell me you think this is funny . nick : no , no , no , no . i was just having a conversation with my father about how he needed to kind of back off summer and let her do her own thing . i 'm wondering now if that was a big mistake . phyllis : okay . we need to collect ourselves so we can figure out what we 're gon na do . nick : what we need to do is figure out how to get that jackass as far away from our daughter as possible . luca : i 'm not going anywhere . look , this may not be what we planned , but few things in life ever are , right ? besides , look , you stuck by me when i gave you every reason not to . now it 's my turn to stick by you . summer : so , what ? is this just an iou thing ? luca : it 's an `` i love you `` thing . look , this is real , summer . you and me . i believe in us more than you can possibly imagine . summer : okay , good . that 's exactly what i needed to hear right now . okay , we do n't even know exactly what we 're dealing with , so [ sighs ] i should probably just take a pregnancy test . luca : yeah , that , uh , that 'd probably be a good idea . summer : yeah . luca : i 'll come with you if that 's okay . summer : yeah . i 'd like that . luca : good . billy : so , you and phyllis going to the meeting together ? jack : no , she 's finishing up some work . i 'll see her there . billy : oh , okay . cool . jack : hey . i 'm glad you 're coming on board . it means a lot . billy : me , too , jack . i 'll see you later , okay ? jack : good . cane : hey . you do n't have to stick around . i can handle this on my own . billy : really ? you 're not gon na miss your co - pilot ? cane : nah , not really . billy : that 's unfortunate , because i 'm not gon na be able to weigh in on your pacific northwest plan . cane : oh , the one you did n't listen to a word of earlier . billy : no , i heard enough to know that it sucks , cane . cane : okay . billy : you know not only you 're gon na have to pay the athletes -- you 're gon na have to pay the team for the logo , right ? cane : billy , of course i know that . i took that in consideration . what ? do you think i 'm an idiot ? billy : oh , and yet you 're still going forward with it . cane : yeah , with or without you . billy : okay , yeah . it 's gon na be without me . cane : excellent . i have a better idea . how about we take this one step further and i call jill and i tell her that you 're no longer interested in manning the ship , okay , 'cause brash & sassy is no longer your priority . billy : you 're gon na call mom like a 12-year - old , cane ? okay , why do n't you go ahead and do that ? at the same time , why do n't you ask about the deal she made with me on the side , the one that puts me in control of the company and leaves you in the dark ? lily : poor devon . this lawsuit is making him look terrible . it 's so unlike him to not settle , right ? neil : yeah , very unlike him . lily : you know this is because of hilary , because she ca n't even part with a dollar of his money . neil : okay , it 's her money , too . lily : yeah , by default ! i just really wish that he divorced her when he had the chance so that she could n't drag him down with her . neil : no , that 's not entirely fair , is it ? lily : oh , i 'm -- i 'm sorry . which part ? neil : hmm , that 's not necessarily the route i would have taken . lily : it 's not the route devon would have taken . neil : oh , goodness . she has the right to defend herself , lily . lily : she 's defending her bank account and her reputation ! hilary worked very hard to climb that ladder , and she will do anything to not get knocked down . come on , devon 's being crucified because he married that gold - digging bitch . ashley : i 'm sure you 're familiar with my former role overseeing the drug trial . well , during that time , i worked very closely with dr. simon neville . i can assure you all the situation is far too complex to be placing the blame entirely on him . especially considering that he saved people 's lives , like mine and like hilary 's . he saved yours , too , did n't he , hilary ? lois : well , if the doctor 's not to blame , that means it 's back to you two on the hot seat . devon : my wife and i have nothing more to say at this time , and i 'd like to remind you that this club has a strict policy against the press accosting its guests , so i recommend all of you leave . ashley : excuse us . hilary : `` no comment `` only makes us look worse , if that 's even possible after the things that you just said . ashley : i was just telling the truth . you should try it sometime , hilary . hilary : name one thing that i said that was n't true . this wonder drug was all dr. neville 's idea . he said that it would work , and it did n't . ashley : you know , memories do n't come any more selective than yours , hilary . you 're the one that rushed the drug to market . you 're the one that bribed the lab tech to make it happen . neville had nothing to do with it . hilary : he is gone , ashley . you can stop mooning over the mad scientist . ashley : i am trying to just give you a much - needed reality check . hilary : the reality is that i could have been killed thanks to dr. neville . i should be joining this damn lawsuit ! ashley : why do n't you ? oh , wait , you know what ? you would n't get any money because you refuse to settle . devon : why do n't you guys talk a little louder ? i do n't think they heard you over there . ashley : how do you do it ? i mean , honestly , do you feel like you have a 20-ton weight just tied around your neck with this woman ? devon : ashley , the only thing i 'm tied to is the woman that i love . ashley : really ? well , the woman that you love , devon , is out of control and you better find a way to rein her in . hilary : thank you for sticking up for me with ashley . that woman has no clue what she 's -- devon : i need to call our lawyer and make sure you did n't make things worse with your spontaneous press conference . luca : can i , um , can i get you a glass of water or anything ? summer : well , considering i just chugged two bottles of water on the way here , i think i 'm good . guess there 's really nothing left to do besides take the test , right ? luca : summer , i 'm sorry . summer : for what ? luca : that things played out the way they did . i know it must have been a shock for -- summer : no , do n't be sorry , okay ? i mean , we 're in this together . right ? luca : right . summer : okay . luca : good luck . i 'm not -- i 'm not sure why i said that . summer : you just want things to work out for the best . luca : yeah , um ... what is best ? i mean , i 'm hoping it 's okay that i say this , but are you hoping for a negative result ... or a positive ? summer : it 's the weirdest thing , 'cause i 'm not even sure i know . phyllis : luca 's a worm . he 's a slimy worm who slithered into our daughter 's life , which was bad enough , but now this ? all right , i need to talk to her . nick : no , no , no , no , no . not like this , you do n't . phyllis : are you suggesting i can not control my temper ? nick : i know you ca n't . phyllis : well , i will have to in this case or she 's gon na go on the defensive . and then she 's gon na go further into luca 's corner . nick : i 'd go , but -- phyllis : that 's a horrible idea . you 're even more hot - headed than i am where our daughter 's concerned . nick : that is true . phyllis : yeah . okay , so we 're agreed ? i 'm gon na have a rational , level - headed mother - daughter talk ? and i 'm really gon na try not to fly off the handle , okay ? is that a deal ? nick : deal . listen , uh , i love having you in this with me . you 're a great wingman . i know we got a lot wrong in our life , but ... phyllis : our baby is one we got right . nick : yeah . phyllis : okay . summer : what you said about having your plans for the future just disappear , i do n't know , i 've ... i 've been there . luca : i 'm sorry you lost someone . summer : yeah . i 'm sorry for you , too . luca : it 's nice to talk with someone who understands . if i had met you months ago , my introduction to genoa city would have been very different . where you been , summer ?

'cause it sounds like you guys are strategizing or something , which is just disturbing beyond belief . phyllis : no , no , no , no , no ! okay , this is coming out wrong . summer : i really hope so . i really hope so . phyllis : okay , i am here to give you my support . but mostly just to see if you 're okay . you are an adult . i know that . but you are still young . and getting pregnant with a man like luca , i mean , that comes with a lot of complications . summer : okay , mom , you do n't have to do this right now . phyllis : i 'm not luca bashing . i am really not . i am saying however you see this unfolding -- baby , no baby , luca , no luca -- we can make it work . summer : but , mom , if you would just let me talk for -- phyllis : there are always options no matter what , even if they are n't obvious . summer : okay , mom , please just stop ! please ! i 'm not pregnant . neil : i understand that you 're very protective of your brother . so am i . but the truth is , as much as we wish it was , it 's not entirely her fault . not when it 's concerning the drug trial . lily : you actually believe that ? neil : if you 're gon na point fingers , i suggest you start at the beginning . lily : you . neil : think about it . hilary may never have needed the miracle cure if i 'd had taken her to the hospital or if i had stayed away from the islands . you know what i 'm saying ? that 's the truth . lily : look , dad , i 'm not condoning what you did , trust me . i really wish that you had n't taken it that far . neil : you and me both . lily : but you ca n't keep beating yourself up . it is not all your fault . neil : maybe not all of it , but i wish i had the guts to own it , you know , take the hits for my mistakes . lily : well , you know what ? if that 's your fatal flaw , then it 's hilary 's , too , because she can not take responsibility for anything . it is always someone else 's fault . you realize that 's why she 's fighting this lawsuit . neil : you ca n't compare what she did to what i did , what she 's doing now . you know , everyone is paying for my mistakes , and that 's the bottom line . lily : and how long are we paying for hilary 's ? especially devon ? jack : i have no comment on the lawsuit because i have no connection with the company involved except i rented them lab space in my building . what does that have to do with my foundation ? again , lois , no comment ! neil : jack , that did n't sound really good . jack : we got a problem . billy : so , once i get the profits up at brash & sassy and prove to mom that my life is back on track , she 'll step back , the company will be mine . no more partnership . sole c.e.o . but i 'm sure there 's a minor division at , uh , chancellor that needs your love and attention . cane : you seem pretty proud of yourself , do n't you , billy ? billy : actually , i am . sounds fantastic to me , cane . cane : [ laughs ] do you really think you 're the only one that jill went to with this deal ? i mean , why do you think i 'm working so hard on this expansion idea , billy ? 'cause i 'm trying to prove myself just like you . surprise ! billy : not really . cane : oh ! billy : that actually sounds something that mom would do . cane : but you know what we could do ? we could turn the tables on her . and you and i , we could work together . we could team up . what do you think ? billy : you and me , huh ? cane : uh - huh . you and me . no more games . a cohesive unit trying to work together to make as much profit as possible . billy : nah . i 'd rather watch you crash and burn with this project of yours , and then i 'll get the company without lifting a finger . they call that a win / win , cane . [ clicks tongue ] cane : [ chuckles ] jack : the foundation is being dragged into this lawsuit because devon , hilary , and ashley , all board members , were involved in the drug company . if this starts to tank the work we 've been doing ... neil : normally i would say do n't sweat it , we 'll be fine . but the fact is , we 're just getting off the ground . jack : donations could literally dry up . lily : yeah , but what are the options ? the foundation ca n't just distance itself from devon and ashley . jack : and hilary . ashley : so , are we talking lawsuit ? jack : unfortunately , yeah . ashley : well , you do n't have to worry about me . i resigned from the company quite awhile ago , and i 've been officially cleared in the fda investigation . jack : and you are definitely not named in the lawsuit ? ashley : absolutely not . jack : okay , one obstacle out of the way . lily : if i were you , i would issue a press release right away highlighting ashley 's lack of involvement and giving hilary her walking papers . neil : [ clears throat ] lily : dad , i 'm serious . you want the foundation to be successful or not ? neil : what about devon , hmm ? he 's an important element here . we do n't want to lose him , do we ? lily : well , that 's the risk you have to take . ashley : i agree with lily . hilary is the face of opposition to this lawsuit . you should have heard her just now with the press . she was badmouthing neville , making him the fall guy . rest assured , all of her comments are gon na be posted on media outlets everywhere . you get rid of hilary , you get rid of the problem . hilary : so ? what did the lawyer say ? devon : he said you did n't necessarily say anything to hurt us , but he advised me that i should get a handle on my wife . hilary : like i 'm some toddler throwing a temper tantrum ? devon : i made it clear that what he said was not acceptable . hilary : yeah , good . devon : just like i did with ashley . believe it or not , honey , i do have your back . i just wish sometimes you would n't make it so damn hard for me . hilary : what is that supposed to mean ? devon : we do n't have time to talk about this right now . we have to get upstairs for the board meeting . phyllis : you 're not pregnant ? summer : no . phyllis : you 're 100 % sure ? summer : yes . i took three tests and all of them were negative . phyllis : then why did n't you tell me to shut up ? ! summer : i tried ! phyllis : oh , sweet mary , this is good news . this is excellent news . summer : well , you and dad can stop freaking out now . phyllis : freaking out ? who was freaking out ? we were concerned . summer : well , thank you . but mostly thank you for your trust . knowing that you and dad had to hold a summit on how to handle me just really brings all the warm and fuzzies . phyllis : okay , you 're overreacting . summer : am i ? phyllis : of course we trust you . summer : yeah , when luca 's not involved . i work very hard to respect the choices that you make , so i would appreciate the same courtesy . phyllis : what choices ? summer : where do i start ? phyllis : wherever you want . summer : when you decided to take a break from your marriage and move into the club , i wanted to beg you not to do it . but i did n't . i kept my mouth shut . and look at where you are now . you 're back at home with jack where you belong . all i am asking for is that same type of faith . no one tells you how to live your life . so please do n't tell me how to live mine . luca : you 're getting worked up over nothing . nick : you think this is nothing ? luca : look , i did n't mean -- [ sighs ] i would never abandon summer , okay ? i care about her too much . nick : boy , you better pray that 's true . luca : it is , nick . and you 're forgetting that i already have a daughter , one that i think about every day . nick : yeah , well , thinking about one and actually putting in the work and raising one are two different things entirely . luca : look , i was kept from eva . i did n't intentionally leave her . nick : my point is , parenting is tough . luca : yeah , i 'm prepared . nick : no , you 're not , luca . to be a father , you learn those lessons along the way . some of those lessons are beautiful , they 're amazing . but some of them rip your heart out . not too long ago , i thought i was gon na be a father again . luca : yeah , summer -- she told me about christian . my sincere condolences . nick : i promised myself that i was n't gon na make the same mistakes i did with my other kids . i never got a chance to make good on that promise . if summer is pregnant , i expect you to take the same approach . be a father to this one . be present in this one 's life . luca : i appreciate the advice . and you have my word i 'll take it to heart . billy : hey , sorry i 'm late . jack : there are a few stragglers -- devon , hilary . billy : yeah , phyllis is n't here yet , either . what 's going on over here ? jack : we have had a crisis thrust upon us in the last half hour or so . billy : what kind of crisis ? hilary : hello , everyone . ashley : hilary , devon . neil : uh , i think it 's time that we call this meeting to order . billy : well , should n't we wait for phyllis ? hilary : well , it 's not our fault that she 's late . we do have a quorum , right ? because the quicker that we get through this agenda , the better . ashley : [ clears throat ] about that agenda . it 's been changed . hilary : in what respect ? ashley : we have new business to discuss . summer : you handled it just right . you nudged me in the right direction and let me realize what luca was all about . nick : i had my suspicions about the guy , but i did n't have any proof . summer : until you found that reporter . nick : we knew he was getting inside information about newman , and since all the tips were skewed to undermine victoria and the way she was handling the crisis ... summer : luca was the logical source . god , why am i so dense ? nick : look , you want to see the best in people . that is an admirable quality . summer : yeah , until it 's not . nick : do n't be so hard on yourself , okay ? you are who you are , and i love who you are . do n't ever change . phyllis : hey . i do n't have long . i 'm late for my board meeting . nick : [ sighs ] how 's summer ? phyllis : she 's not pregnant . nick : oh , thank god . phyllis : yeah , thank god . nick : wow . okay . uh , how 's she doing ? phyllis : well , i do n't know how she felt about the pregnancy scare , but i know how she feels about us . nick : not great , i 'm guessing ? phyllis : the fact that we were discussing her personal life did n't go over so well . she thinks we treat her like a kid . nick : not trusting her to know what 's best . phyllis : yes . you 've heard the speech ? nick : just a few times , yeah . phyllis : yeah , well , there is this weird tension surrounding luca . i mean , obviously she knows we are not fans . nick : so it was a good talk ? phyllis : [ sighs ] she is not with child , so i am not complaining . nick : we really dodged a bullet . i mean , we were this close to having luca in our lives permanently , not to mention summer 's . no way am i gon na let that happen again . phyllis : okay , victor . nick : think about it . you really want luca around the thanksgiving table calling you mom ? phyllis : what 's the plan ? nick : i know he was behind those oil disasters . i just know it . phyllis : but you already investigated . you came up empty . nick : well , i 'm gon na dig deeper now . this time luca 's going down . summer : hey . oh , you will not believe what just happened with my mom . she came over and just started -- um , i thought you were going to crimson lights . luca : yeah , i was . i did . but , uh ... then i had an epiphany , which led me to a slight detour . summer : uh , n - n -- [ scoffs ] what are you -- what are you doing ? luca : i 'm proposing . was that not obvious ? summer : no . um , okay . luca , the test was negative . you do n't have to do this . luca : no , i want to . look , summer , i 've -- i 've come to realize i ca n't live without you . look , when i thought you were pregnant , i should have been terrified . okay , maybe i was a little bit , but -- but then i started thinking about what our lives would be like if we were together raising a child . and then i started picturing all these amazing , beautiful , fun things we could do , like -- like teaching them how to sketch . [ both chuckle ] summer : no , no , you could do that . i ... the most i could teach them is the finer points of how to hide underneath the kitchen table . [ both chuckle ] summer : so this is really what you want ? you ... you want to get married and start a family ? luca : yes . it truly is . completely and utterly . so ... summer ann newman , ¿ te caserias conmigo ? nick : yeah , it 's gon na be a round trip to newfoundland . yeah , file the flight plan asap . i 'll be at the hangar shortly . okay . luca : do you need me to translate the question ? summer : no , no , i got -- i got it . [ both chuckle ] summer : i got it . um ... and my answer is ... it 's yes . luca : yes ? summer : yes . luca : [ chuckles ] summer : [ chuckles ] oh , my gosh . it 's beautiful . luca : [ chuckles ] summer : i ca n't believe we 're doing this . luca : is your heart racing as fast as mine is ? summer : yes . i ca n't believe you ca n't hear it right now . luca : [ chuckles ] te amo , summer . summer : i love you , too . oh , my god . my parents are gon na flip out . in a really bad way . luca : yeah , in the worst way . [ chuckles ] summer : i do n't care , though . i do n't care at all . i 'm gon na deal with that later , 'cause right now i just want to enjoy this . do you have any idea how happy you just made me ? luca : i think i can probably guess . cane : [ sighs ] hey , jill , it 's me . hey , so i 've been thinking it 's about time to give you a progress report , so do you want to do lunch tomorrow ? no , no , no , no , no . there 's gon na be no need to have billy there . yeah . no , i think that you and i can do this alone . hilary : how very mysterious , ashley . does anyone want to fill us in ? jack : we were about to do just that . a seat , shall we ? billy : want to tell me what 's going on here ? lily : just sit back and enjoy the fireworks . hilary : why do i get the feeling that i 'm about to be put on blast by ashley again ? devon : if that happens , i have your back , honey . i 'm not gon na let her or anyone else attack you here . jack : i would like to call this meeting to order . first item on our agen -- phyllis : sorry i 'm late . i am so sorry . a family crisis , but everything 's all right now . okay . i 'm sorry . what did i miss ? what the hell are you doing here ? [ next_on ] victoria : we do n't need to sit down , jill . this wo n't take very long . ashley : honey , what 's the matter ? abby : it 's ben . i do n't think he trusts me . lily : i am making a motion that we vote to remove hilary hamilton from the board of this foundation effective immediately .
nick and phyllis worried that summer might be pregnant . they decided they should 've worked harder to separate summer and luca , and they agreed that phyllis would talk to summer . summer worried that luca would n't stick around if she was pregnant , but he assured her that he 'd be by her side . summer and luca found out she was n't pregnant . nick confronted luca at crimson lights and made it clear that he expected luca to stick by summer and the baby . nick talked about fatherhood , and luca appreciated nick 's advice . phyllis told summer that she and nick would support her no matter what . summer was angry that her parents had met to discuss her , and she asked phyllis to respect her choices . phyllis and nick were relieved that summer was n't pregnant . nick made plans to fly to newfoundland to find proof that luca was involved in the oil spill , so that he could break up summer and luca for good . luca proposed to summer and she accepted . neil and lily found out devon was being sued . lily was sure that hilary was the reason that devon did n't settle . lily vented to neil about hilary , but neil thought lily was being too harsh . neil felt responsible for the lawsuit since his actions led to hilary getting hurt and needing the treatment . devon and hilary were accosted by reporters seeking comments on the lawsuit . devon refused to comment , but hilary maintained her and devon 's innocence and blamed simon . ashley made a statement to the press defending simon . hilary and ashley had words . devon defended hilary and assured her that he had her back , but he wished she did n't make it so hard sometimes . billy and cane learned that jill had secretly made side deals with both of them offering to give them full control of brash and sassy if they raised the profits . cane suggested they turn the tables on jill and work together . billy refused , hoping cane 's ideas for the company would fail , causing billy to win brash and sassy by default . the lawsuit threatened the abbott - winters foundation , because ashley , devon and hilary were on the board . ashley and lily felt that they could minimize the damage to the foundation by firing hilary . billy arrived at the foundation meeting to see whether or not he was going to be allowed to join the board . phyllis walked into the meeting and demanded to know what the hell billy was doing there .
<s>[INST] cane : i 'm envisioning pushing brash & sassy 's market further into the pacific northwest where there 's a market share we can still capitalize on . now , what i 'm thinking is , the analytics suggest that we take local pro sports stars and we couple them with models wearing brash -- billy . you listening ? billy : yeah . yeah , cane , i heard every boring word you said . cane : okay . so what do you got there ? is that the marketing plan ? billy : it 's a board meeting agenda for jack and neil 's foundation . cane : really ? so you 're on the board now , huh ? since when ? when did that happen ? billy : this afternoon if they vote me in , which they will . what 's that face for ? cane : nothing . i 'm just , uh , trying to figure out why all of a sudden you became so interested in charity , that 's all . phyllis : thank you . i will take a look at this before the board meeting . jack : you busy ? phyllis : i am insane , but it is all work - related . i just need to finish up a few things before -- jack : okay , well , i 'll get out of your hair . you do n't want to be late . we 're voting in a new board member . phyllis : hi , nick . nick : hey , uh , sorry to interrupt . i need to talk to you . jack : you know what ? your timing is perfect . i 'm on my way out . i 'll see you later . phyllis : okay . i 'll be there . what 's up ? is it summer ? everything okay ? nick : well , that depends . are you ready to be a grandmother again ? summer : okay , look , before we freak out , we do n't know for sure that i am actually pregnant . we just know that i am late , which would n't normally be a big deal , but with me , that rarely happens . luca : how rare is rare ? summer : i do n't know . like ... never . i mean , how did i not notice this until now ? i 'm like a whole week late . luca : now , look , we used protection , right ? summer : yeah . luca : and i thought you were on birth control . summer : no , i am . there 's a reason why they say that that 's only like 99 % effective or whatever the statistic is . [ sighs ] oh , my god . luca , we -- we are the statistic . luca : okay , maybe -- look , maybe not . you have been under a lot of stress lately , right , what with victor and his trial . summer : no , that 's like a vacation compared to some of the stress that i 've been through in my life . and even then , i have never been late . we need to deal with this , luca . unless i 'm on my own ? luca : what ? no , summer . summer : because right now it looks like you want to run as fast as you can and never look back . neil : whoa , there she is , my baby girl . thank you for letting us use your office as a board room . lily : no problem . hand me the agendas . i 'll help you set up . neil : okay , very good . and you know what ? this is gon na give us some much- needed time , one - on - one time , to , uh , to talk . lily : [ chuckles ] neil : how lucky am i ? lily : oh , so lucky . you know , if you want to hang out more , actually , i could use some help with charlie and mattie now that cane started this new job . neil : i am all over that like white on rice . lily : oh , good . they 'll be so excited . [ cell phone chimes ] lily : [ sighs ] i keep getting these alerts from gc buzz . must be some socialite who went out without makeup or something . neil : the horror . lily , what is it ? lily : [ sighs ] this does not look good . lois : oh , there they are . mr. and mrs. hamilton , lois thompson . i just have a couple of questions . devon : my wife and i have no comment . lois : uh , patients who took part in your drug trial have filed a lawsuit , patients who thought their lives would be changed , and then whoops -- just kidding . and you do n't have a comment ? why have n't you offered a settlement to these poor souls ? do n't you two want to make things right ? devon : listen , you ca n't just -- hilary : if you had done your homework , you would know that my husband and i are completely blameless . lois : `` completely `` is a bit of a stretch , do n't you think ? you promised these people a cure . hilary : no , we did not promise anything . we worked very hard to bring a drug to market that would hopefully help people . unfortunately , it did n't work out that way . lois : that sounds like some `` cover my butt `` p.r . rhetoric to me . hilary : there 's a reason why it 's called trials , mrs. thompson . sometimes they work . sometimes they do n't . that 's a fact . lois : well , it 's not that cut and dry for the patients or the fda , who was backing them . they say there 's some evidence of tampering , not to mention false reports filed with the government . hilary : sadly , that is true , but , again , my husband and i , we are not responsible . lois : you backed the study . hilary : yes , but we were n't conducting it . unfortunately , the -- the falsifications and the tampering , it was the work of a rogue employee who was trying to cover up his lack of results . lois : hmm . and his name is ? devon : hilary . lois : oh , i see . so you 're comfortable hiding the identity of the rogue employee . hilary : no , no , not at all . his name is dr. simon neville . my husband and i , we were both his victims . ashley : i 'm sorry . that is -- excuse me -- hardly the whole story . billy : you have a problem with me joining the foundation , cane ? cane : uh , no . i mean , do n't you think you 're spreading yourself maybe a little too thin ? billy : see , there 's this thing called multitasking . it 's where people can do two things at one time . cane : some people , billy . some people . billy : but not me , cane ? is that what you 're saying ? cane : look , i do n't mean to dwell on this , okay , but , you know , you had nothing -- nothing -- on your plate , and you still managed to drop the ball on brash & sassy , right ? and as a result , jill took over the company . you remember that . billy : and she made us co - c.e.o.s . cane : yeah . billy : yeah , and i 'm not gon na deny that i dropped the ball , but that 's not gon na happen again . you can count on it . cane : [ laughs ] sorry . i should n't laugh at you . look , i want to be honest with you about something , all right ? 'cause i 'm genuinely curious about this . what got you so distracted that you 'd completely neglect your own company ? billy : jack . hey , we were just talking about you , or the foundation , more specifically . jack : i can still count on you being at that board meeting later ? billy : i do n't see anything or anyone getting in the way of that . nick : i was just about to walk in , and i heard them talking . i heard summer say to luca she 's late . phyllis : that 's great . nick : how is that great ? phyllis : i just mean it 's not necessarily a done deal . did she sound like she knew anything for sure ? nick : no . phyllis : okay . okay , then we 're probably freaking out over nothing . she may not even be pregnant . by the way , i am freaking out . nick : yeah , join the club . phyllis : [ sighs ] i mean , you do n't think that they were planning this , do you ? nick : i do n't think so . summer sounded anxious . phyllis : she should be anxious . getting pregnant with that sleazeball ? nick : we do n't know anything for sure . phyllis : okay , all right . i just -- i can not believe that you actually walked away after hearing what you heard . nick : well , it took everything in me not to run in there and start firing off some questions , but i knew that 'd be a mistake . phyllis : really good thinking on your part , but this luca -- this is not -- this is n't good . nick : we were almost rid of him weeks ago , remember ? then he sweet - talked summer into reconsidering . phyllis : yeah , well , so much for our plan of killing him with kindness . we should have just killed him . nick : i still might do that . phyllis : at least we should have been more proactive . i mean , forget the hands - off approach . summer needed to know who she was dating . it was on us to tell her . nick : [ chuckles ] god . phyllis : do not tell me you think this is funny . nick : no , no , no , no . i was just having a conversation with my father about how he needed to kind of back off summer and let her do her own thing . i 'm wondering now if that was a big mistake . phyllis : okay . we need to collect ourselves so we can figure out what we 're gon na do . nick : what we need to do is figure out how to get that jackass as far away from our daughter as possible . luca : i 'm not going anywhere . look , this may not be what we planned , but few things in life ever are , right ? besides , look , you stuck by me when i gave you every reason not to . now it 's my turn to stick by you . summer : so , what ? is this just an iou thing ? luca : it 's an `` i love you `` thing . look , this is real , summer . you and me . i believe in us more than you can possibly imagine . summer : okay , good . that 's exactly what i needed to hear right now . okay , we do n't even know exactly what we 're dealing with , so [ sighs ] i should probably just take a pregnancy test . luca : yeah , that , uh , that 'd probably be a good idea . summer : yeah . luca : i 'll come with you if that 's okay . summer : yeah . i 'd like that . luca : good . billy : so , you and phyllis going to the meeting together ? jack : no , she 's finishing up some work . i 'll see her there . billy : oh , okay . cool . jack : hey . i 'm glad you 're coming on board . it means a lot . billy : me , too , jack . i 'll see you later , okay ? jack : good . cane : hey . you do n't have to stick around . i can handle this on my own . billy : really ? you 're not gon na miss your co - pilot ? cane : nah , not really . billy : that 's unfortunate , because i 'm not gon na be able to weigh in on your pacific northwest plan . cane : oh , the one you did n't listen to a word of earlier . billy : no , i heard enough to know that it sucks , cane . cane : okay . billy : you know not only you 're gon na have to pay the athletes -- you 're gon na have to pay the team for the logo , right ? cane : billy , of course i know that . i took that in consideration . what ? do you think i 'm an idiot ? billy : oh , and yet you 're still going forward with it . cane : yeah , with or without you . billy : okay , yeah . it 's gon na be without me . cane : excellent . i have a better idea . how about we take this one step further and i call jill and i tell her that you 're no longer interested in manning the ship , okay , 'cause brash & sassy is no longer your priority . billy : you 're gon na call mom like a 12-year - old , cane ? okay , why do n't you go ahead and do that ? at the same time , why do n't you ask about the deal she made with me on the side , the one that puts me in control of the company and leaves you in the dark ? lily : poor devon . this lawsuit is making him look terrible . it 's so unlike him to not settle , right ? neil : yeah , very unlike him . lily : you know this is because of hilary , because she ca n't even part with a dollar of his money . neil : okay , it 's her money , too . lily : yeah , by default ! i just really wish that he divorced her when he had the chance so that she could n't drag him down with her . neil : no , that 's not entirely fair , is it ? lily : oh , i 'm -- i 'm sorry . which part ? neil : hmm , that 's not necessarily the route i would have taken . lily : it 's not the route devon would have taken . neil : oh , goodness . she has the right to defend herself , lily . lily : she 's defending her bank account and her reputation ! hilary worked very hard to climb that ladder , and she will do anything to not get knocked down . come on , devon 's being crucified because he married that gold - digging bitch . ashley : i 'm sure you 're familiar with my former role overseeing the drug trial . well , during that time , i worked very closely with dr. simon neville . i can assure you all the situation is far too complex to be placing the blame entirely on him . especially considering that he saved people 's lives , like mine and like hilary 's . he saved yours , too , did n't he , hilary ? lois : well , if the doctor 's not to blame , that means it 's back to you two on the hot seat . devon : my wife and i have nothing more to say at this time , and i 'd like to remind you that this club has a strict policy against the press accosting its guests , so i recommend all of you leave . ashley : excuse us . hilary : `` no comment `` only makes us look worse , if that 's even possible after the things that you just said . ashley : i was just telling the truth . you should try it sometime , hilary . hilary : name one thing that i said that was n't true . this wonder drug was all dr. neville 's idea . he said that it would work , and it did n't . ashley : you know , memories do n't come any more selective than yours , hilary . you 're the one that rushed the drug to market . you 're the one that bribed the lab tech to make it happen . neville had nothing to do with it . hilary : he is gone , ashley . you can stop mooning over the mad scientist . ashley : i am trying to just give you a much - needed reality check . hilary : the reality is that i could have been killed thanks to dr. neville . i should be joining this damn lawsuit ! ashley : why do n't you ? oh , wait , you know what ? you would n't get any money because you refuse to settle . devon : why do n't you guys talk a little louder ? i do n't think they heard you over there . ashley : how do you do it ? i mean , honestly , do you feel like you have a 20-ton weight just tied around your neck with this woman ? devon : ashley , the only thing i 'm tied to is the woman that i love . ashley : really ? well , the woman that you love , devon , is out of control and you better find a way to rein her in . hilary : thank you for sticking up for me with ashley . that woman has no clue what she 's -- devon : i need to call our lawyer and make sure you did n't make things worse with your spontaneous press conference . luca : can i , um , can i get you a glass of water or anything ? summer : well , considering i just chugged two bottles of water on the way here , i think i 'm good . guess there 's really nothing left to do besides take the test , right ? luca : summer , i 'm sorry . summer : for what ? luca : that things played out the way they did . i know it must have been a shock for -- summer : no , do n't be sorry , okay ? i mean , we 're in this together . right ? luca : right . summer : okay . luca : good luck . i 'm not -- i 'm not sure why i said that . summer : you just want things to work out for the best . luca : yeah , um ... what is best ? i mean , i 'm hoping it 's okay that i say this , but are you hoping for a negative result ... or a positive ? summer : it 's the weirdest thing , 'cause i 'm not even sure i know . phyllis : luca 's a worm . he 's a slimy worm who slithered into our daughter 's life , which was bad enough , but now this ? all right , i need to talk to her . nick : no , no , no , no , no . not like this , you do n't . phyllis : are you suggesting i can not control my temper ? nick : i know you ca n't . phyllis : well , i will have to in this case or she 's gon na go on the defensive . and then she 's gon na go further into luca 's corner . nick : i 'd go , but -- phyllis : that 's a horrible idea . you 're even more hot - headed than i am where our daughter 's concerned . nick : that is true . phyllis : yeah . okay , so we 're agreed ? i 'm gon na have a rational , level - headed mother - daughter talk ? and i 'm really gon na try not to fly off the handle , okay ? is that a deal ? nick : deal . listen , uh , i love having you in this with me . you 're a great wingman . i know we got a lot wrong in our life , but ... phyllis : our baby is one we got right . nick : yeah . phyllis : okay . summer : what you said about having your plans for the future just disappear , i do n't know , i 've ... i 've been there . luca : i 'm sorry you lost someone . summer : yeah . i 'm sorry for you , too . luca : it 's nice to talk with someone who understands . if i had met you months ago , my introduction to genoa city would have been very different . where you been , summer ? [ both chuckle ] luca : i granted marisa the divorce . summer : wow . i ... are -- are you okay ? luca : i will be . summer : [ scoffs ] sorry , what -- what -- what made you change your mind ? luca : you . summer : well , i 'm really proud of you , luca . moving on is never -- never easy . luca : yeah , no , it 's not . summer : hey , someday you 're gon na make somebody really , really happy . luca : i 'm counting on it . summer : i really admire the way that you try to be your own person . you 're not just another spoiled playboy living off of daddy 's money . luca : [ chuckles ] summer : you can really be anything that you want to be . luca : well , laying here with you , you have me convinced . anything 's possible . look , i know how much your family loves you . summer : okay , and i love you . i do not need newman enterprises . i can get another job , and so can you . we can have everything we have ever wanted if you will just stay here and fight for this , for the two of us , please . luca : look , you do n't realize what you 're saying . summer : yes , i do . of course , i do . luca : no , look , summer , it 's one thing for me to defy your family . i have nothing to lose . but if you do this , you 'd be giving up everything for me . are you really prepared to do that ? summer : no , you have it all wrong . i am not giving up anything . i am getting the one thing i want most , and that is you . luca : [ sighs ] nick : what are you doing here ? luca : hey . what the hell ? look , i 'm -- i 'm getting a coffee , all right ? summer wanted an iced latte . nick : listen , i know what you two are up to . i heard you talking back at the office . luca : oh . nick : `` oh `` ? luca : look , nick , then you should probably know -- nick : see , at first i wanted to hit something . then i wanted to hit someone . and then i thought i should just get you a one - way ticket out of town so i could get you as far away from my daughter as possible . luca : and now ? nick : and now , well , i ca n't stop thinking about summer and what she would want and what 's best for her , because , really , that 's all that matters . luca : yeah , agreed . nick : you got one option . just one . you 're gon na step up and do right by my daughter . luca : or else ? nick : that 's a given . [ doorbell rings ] summer : mom ? phyllis : hey , sweetie . summer : hi . phyllis : hi . is luca here ? summer : uh , no . he just ran out for a minute . why ? phyllis : i gave it some thought about how i could ease gently into this , but i think that 's pretty much impossible , so i 'm just gon na say it . summer : okay . phyllis : i know about your situation . summer : my what ? phyllis : your father overheard you at the office about how you might be pregnant . summer : wait , he overheard us and he did n't say anything ? phyllis : well , it 's a lot to take in . i think he needed to absorb the information before he discussed it with you . summer : but [ scoffs ] he discussed it with you . phyllis : we 're your parents . summer : okay , and i 'm an adult , mom . phyllis : yeah , i know . we needed to talk , though , to see what happens next . summer : what happens next is my decision , not yours . phyllis : we completely understand that . summer : really ? phyllis : yes , we do . we support you . we want to help you however we can . we just needed to talk to make sure we were all on the same page . summer : really ? 'cause it sounds like you guys are strategizing or something , which is just disturbing beyond belief . phyllis : no , no , no , no , no ! okay , this is coming out wrong . summer : i really hope so . i really hope so . phyllis : okay , i am here to give you my support . but mostly just to see if you 're okay . you are an adult . i know that . but you are still young . and getting pregnant with a man like luca , i mean , that comes with a lot of complications . summer : okay , mom , you do n't have to do this right now . phyllis : i 'm not luca bashing . i am really not . i am saying however you see this unfolding -- baby , no baby , luca , no luca -- we can make it work . summer : but , mom , if you would just let me talk for -- phyllis : there are always options no matter what , even if they are n't obvious . summer : okay , mom , please just stop ! please ! i 'm not pregnant . neil : i understand that you 're very protective of your brother . so am i . but the truth is , as much as we wish it was , it 's not entirely her fault . not when it 's concerning the drug trial . lily : you actually believe that ? neil : if you 're gon na point fingers , i suggest you start at the beginning . lily : you . neil : think about it . hilary may never have needed the miracle cure if i 'd had taken her to the hospital or if i had stayed away from the islands . you know what i 'm saying ? that 's the truth . lily : look , dad , i 'm not condoning what you did , trust me . i really wish that you had n't taken it that far . neil : you and me both . lily : but you ca n't keep beating yourself up . it is not all your fault . neil : maybe not all of it , but i wish i had the guts to own it , you know , take the hits for my mistakes . lily : well , you know what ? if that 's your fatal flaw , then it 's hilary 's , too , because she can not take responsibility for anything . it is always someone else 's fault . you realize that 's why she 's fighting this lawsuit . neil : you ca n't compare what she did to what i did , what she 's doing now . you know , everyone is paying for my mistakes , and that 's the bottom line . lily : and how long are we paying for hilary 's ? especially devon ? jack : i have no comment on the lawsuit because i have no connection with the company involved except i rented them lab space in my building . what does that have to do with my foundation ? again , lois , no comment ! neil : jack , that did n't sound really good . jack : we got a problem . billy : so , once i get the profits up at brash & sassy and prove to mom that my life is back on track , she 'll step back , the company will be mine . no more partnership . sole c.e.o . but i 'm sure there 's a minor division at , uh , chancellor that needs your love and attention . cane : you seem pretty proud of yourself , do n't you , billy ? billy : actually , i am . sounds fantastic to me , cane . cane : [ laughs ] do you really think you 're the only one that jill went to with this deal ? i mean , why do you think i 'm working so hard on this expansion idea , billy ? 'cause i 'm trying to prove myself just like you . surprise ! billy : not really . cane : oh ! billy : that actually sounds something that mom would do . cane : but you know what we could do ? we could turn the tables on her . and you and i , we could work together . we could team up . what do you think ? billy : you and me , huh ? cane : uh - huh . you and me . no more games . a cohesive unit trying to work together to make as much profit as possible . billy : nah . i 'd rather watch you crash and burn with this project of yours , and then i 'll get the company without lifting a finger . they call that a win / win , cane . [ clicks tongue ] cane : [ chuckles ] jack : the foundation is being dragged into this lawsuit because devon , hilary , and ashley , all board members , were involved in the drug company . if this starts to tank the work we 've been doing ... neil : normally i would say do n't sweat it , we 'll be fine . but the fact is , we 're just getting off the ground . jack : donations could literally dry up . lily : yeah , but what are the options ? the foundation ca n't just distance itself from devon and ashley . jack : and hilary . ashley : so , are we talking lawsuit ? jack : unfortunately , yeah . ashley : well , you do n't have to worry about me . i resigned from the company quite awhile ago , and i 've been officially cleared in the fda investigation . jack : and you are definitely not named in the lawsuit ? ashley : absolutely not . jack : okay , one obstacle out of the way . lily : if i were you , i would issue a press release right away highlighting ashley 's lack of involvement and giving hilary her walking papers . neil : [ clears throat ] lily : dad , i 'm serious . you want the foundation to be successful or not ? neil : what about devon , hmm ? he 's an important element here . we do n't want to lose him , do we ? lily : well , that 's the risk you have to take . ashley : i agree with lily . hilary is the face of opposition to this lawsuit . you should have heard her just now with the press . she was badmouthing neville , making him the fall guy . rest assured , all of her comments are gon na be posted on media outlets everywhere . you get rid of hilary , you get rid of the problem . hilary : so ? what did the lawyer say ? devon : he said you did n't necessarily say anything to hurt us , but he advised me that i should get a handle on my wife . hilary : like i 'm some toddler throwing a temper tantrum ? devon : i made it clear that what he said was not acceptable . hilary : yeah , good . devon : just like i did with ashley . believe it or not , honey , i do have your back . i just wish sometimes you would n't make it so damn hard for me . hilary : what is that supposed to mean ? devon : we do n't have time to talk about this right now . we have to get upstairs for the board meeting . phyllis : you 're not pregnant ? summer : no . phyllis : you 're 100 % sure ? summer : yes . i took three tests and all of them were negative . phyllis : then why did n't you tell me to shut up ? ! summer : i tried ! phyllis : oh , sweet mary , this is good news . this is excellent news . summer : well , you and dad can stop freaking out now . phyllis : freaking out ? who was freaking out ? we were concerned . summer : well , thank you . but mostly thank you for your trust . knowing that you and dad had to hold a summit on how to handle me just really brings all the warm and fuzzies . phyllis : okay , you 're overreacting . summer : am i ? phyllis : of course we trust you . summer : yeah , when luca 's not involved . i work very hard to respect the choices that you make , so i would appreciate the same courtesy . phyllis : what choices ? summer : where do i start ? phyllis : wherever you want . summer : when you decided to take a break from your marriage and move into the club , i wanted to beg you not to do it . but i did n't . i kept my mouth shut . and look at where you are now . you 're back at home with jack where you belong . all i am asking for is that same type of faith . no one tells you how to live your life . so please do n't tell me how to live mine . luca : you 're getting worked up over nothing . nick : you think this is nothing ? luca : look , i did n't mean -- [ sighs ] i would never abandon summer , okay ? i care about her too much . nick : boy , you better pray that 's true . luca : it is , nick . and you 're forgetting that i already have a daughter , one that i think about every day . nick : yeah , well , thinking about one and actually putting in the work and raising one are two different things entirely . luca : look , i was kept from eva . i did n't intentionally leave her . nick : my point is , parenting is tough . luca : yeah , i 'm prepared . nick : no , you 're not , luca . to be a father , you learn those lessons along the way . some of those lessons are beautiful , they 're amazing . but some of them rip your heart out . not too long ago , i thought i was gon na be a father again . luca : yeah , summer -- she told me about christian . my sincere condolences . nick : i promised myself that i was n't gon na make the same mistakes i did with my other kids . i never got a chance to make good on that promise . if summer is pregnant , i expect you to take the same approach . be a father to this one . be present in this one 's life . luca : i appreciate the advice . and you have my word i 'll take it to heart . billy : hey , sorry i 'm late . jack : there are a few stragglers -- devon , hilary . billy : yeah , phyllis is n't here yet , either . what 's going on over here ? jack : we have had a crisis thrust upon us in the last half hour or so . billy : what kind of crisis ? hilary : hello , everyone . ashley : hilary , devon . neil : uh , i think it 's time that we call this meeting to order . billy : well , should n't we wait for phyllis ? hilary : well , it 's not our fault that she 's late . we do have a quorum , right ? because the quicker that we get through this agenda , the better . ashley : [ clears throat ] about that agenda . it 's been changed . hilary : in what respect ? ashley : we have new business to discuss . summer : you handled it just right . you nudged me in the right direction and let me realize what luca was all about . nick : i had my suspicions about the guy , but i did n't have any proof . summer : until you found that reporter . nick : we knew he was getting inside information about newman , and since all the tips were skewed to undermine victoria and the way she was handling the crisis ... summer : luca was the logical source . god , why am i so dense ? nick : look , you want to see the best in people . that is an admirable quality . summer : yeah , until it 's not . nick : do n't be so hard on yourself , okay ? you are who you are , and i love who you are . do n't ever change . phyllis : hey . i do n't have long . i 'm late for my board meeting . nick : [ sighs ] how 's summer ? phyllis : she 's not pregnant . nick : oh , thank god . phyllis : yeah , thank god . nick : wow . okay . uh , how 's she doing ? phyllis : well , i do n't know how she felt about the pregnancy scare , but i know how she feels about us . nick : not great , i 'm guessing ? phyllis : the fact that we were discussing her personal life did n't go over so well . she thinks we treat her like a kid . nick : not trusting her to know what 's best . phyllis : yes . you 've heard the speech ? nick : just a few times , yeah . phyllis : yeah , well , there is this weird tension surrounding luca . i mean , obviously she knows we are not fans . nick : so it was a good talk ? phyllis : [ sighs ] she is not with child , so i am not complaining . nick : we really dodged a bullet . i mean , we were this close to having luca in our lives permanently , not to mention summer 's . no way am i gon na let that happen again . phyllis : okay , victor . nick : think about it . you really want luca around the thanksgiving table calling you mom ? phyllis : what 's the plan ? nick : i know he was behind those oil disasters . i just know it . phyllis : but you already investigated . you came up empty . nick : well , i 'm gon na dig deeper now . this time luca 's going down . summer : hey . oh , you will not believe what just happened with my mom . she came over and just started -- um , i thought you were going to crimson lights . luca : yeah , i was . i did . but , uh ... then i had an epiphany , which led me to a slight detour . summer : uh , n - n -- [ scoffs ] what are you -- what are you doing ? luca : i 'm proposing . was that not obvious ? summer : no . um , okay . luca , the test was negative . you do n't have to do this . luca : no , i want to . look , summer , i 've -- i 've come to realize i ca n't live without you . look , when i thought you were pregnant , i should have been terrified . okay , maybe i was a little bit , but -- but then i started thinking about what our lives would be like if we were together raising a child . and then i started picturing all these amazing , beautiful , fun things we could do , like -- like teaching them how to sketch . [ both chuckle ] summer : no , no , you could do that . i ... the most i could teach them is the finer points of how to hide underneath the kitchen table . [ both chuckle ] summer : so this is really what you want ? you ... you want to get married and start a family ? luca : yes . it truly is . completely and utterly . so ... summer ann newman , ¿ te caserias conmigo ? nick : yeah , it 's gon na be a round trip to newfoundland . yeah , file the flight plan asap . i 'll be at the hangar shortly . okay . luca : do you need me to translate the question ? summer : no , no , i got -- i got it . [ both chuckle ] summer : i got it . um ... and my answer is ... it 's yes . luca : yes ? summer : yes . luca : [ chuckles ] summer : [ chuckles ] oh , my gosh . it 's beautiful . luca : [ chuckles ] summer : i ca n't believe we 're doing this . luca : is your heart racing as fast as mine is ? summer : yes . i ca n't believe you ca n't hear it right now . luca : [ chuckles ] te amo , summer . summer : i love you , too . oh , my god . my parents are gon na flip out . in a really bad way . luca : yeah , in the worst way . [ chuckles ] summer : i do n't care , though . i do n't care at all . i 'm gon na deal with that later , 'cause right now i just want to enjoy this . do you have any idea how happy you just made me ? luca : i think i can probably guess . cane : [ sighs ] hey , jill , it 's me . hey , so i 've been thinking it 's about time to give you a progress report , so do you want to do lunch tomorrow ? no , no , no , no , no . there 's gon na be no need to have billy there . yeah . no , i think that you and i can do this alone . hilary : how very mysterious , ashley . does anyone want to fill us in ? jack : we were about to do just that . a seat , shall we ? billy : want to tell me what 's going on here ? lily : just sit back and enjoy the fireworks . hilary : why do i get the feeling that i 'm about to be put on blast by ashley again ? devon : if that happens , i have your back , honey . i 'm not gon na let her or anyone else attack you here . jack : i would like to call this meeting to order . first item on our agen -- phyllis : sorry i 'm late . i am so sorry . a family crisis , but everything 's all right now . okay . i 'm sorry . what did i miss ? what the hell are you doing here ? [ next_on ] victoria : we do n't need to sit down , jill . this wo n't take very long . ashley : honey , what 's the matter ? abby : it 's ben . i do n't think he trusts me . lily : i am making a motion that we vote to remove hilary hamilton from the board of this foundation effective immediately .Summarize.[/INST]nick and phyllis worried that summer might be pregnant . they decided they should 've worked harder to separate summer and luca , and they agreed that phyllis would talk to summer . summer worried that luca would n't stick around if she was pregnant , but he assured her that he 'd be by her side . summer and luca found out she was n't pregnant . nick confronted luca at crimson lights and made it clear that he expected luca to stick by summer and the baby . nick talked about fatherhood , and luca appreciated nick 's advice . phyllis told summer that she and nick would support her no matter what . summer was angry that her parents had met to discuss her , and she asked phyllis to respect her choices . phyllis and nick were relieved that summer was n't pregnant . nick made plans to fly to newfoundland to find proof that luca was involved in the oil spill , so that he could break up summer and luca for good . luca proposed to summer and she accepted . neil and lily found out devon was being sued . lily was sure that hilary was the reason that devon did n't settle . lily vented to neil about hilary , but neil thought lily was being too harsh . neil felt responsible for the lawsuit since his actions led to hilary getting hurt and needing the treatment . devon and hilary were accosted by reporters seeking comments on the lawsuit . devon refused to comment , but hilary maintained her and devon 's innocence and blamed simon . ashley made a statement to the press defending simon . hilary and ashley had words . devon defended hilary and assured her that he had her back , but he wished she did n't make it so hard sometimes . billy and cane learned that jill had secretly made side deals with both of them offering to give them full control of brash and sassy if they raised the profits . cane suggested they turn the tables on jill and work together . billy refused , hoping cane 's ideas for the company would fail , causing billy to win brash and sassy by default . the lawsuit threatened the abbott - winters foundation , because ashley , devon and hilary were on the board . ashley and lily felt that they could minimize the damage to the foundation by firing hilary . billy arrived at the foundation meeting to see whether or not he was going to be allowed to join the board . phyllis walked into the meeting and demanded to know what the hell billy was doing there .</s>

[ scene_break ] alexis : [ sighs ] how much longer do you think it will take ? diane : well , we still have to make our closing argument . alexis : it really does n't matter what you say anyway , because they 've already decided that they 're going to disbar me . and this is where you reassure me that that 's not going to happen . diane : alexis , we presented you in the best possible light . if the board can find any gray area in what you did with julian and carlos , then i think you 've got a shot . [ door opens ] man : ms. davis , they 're ready for you . [ scene_break ] tracy : i am so sorry about nikolas . laura : thank you . that 's , um -- that 's very kind of you , considering that the two of you were business adversaries . tracy : well , it seems trivial now -- his play for my father 's company , but you know what , as a matter of fact , nikolas and i worked on a project together once , and he was -- he was very , very good . and i do n't say that often . if there 's anything you need , just ask me . laura : thank you . i think i 'm gon na feel a lot better once the results of these tests come back , assuming that they are what we believe they are . tracy : they will be . there 's no way , with as many times as luke has cheated death , that he is going to meet his end in some grubby corridor on cassadine island . [ scene_break ] lulu : i told tracy to just call me with the results . i hate hanging around the hospital just waiting to hear . dante : i know this is really difficult . i do . lulu : i just keep telling myself that it was coincidence or a setup , and there 's no way that my dad is dead . then i think about nikolas , and i realize that sometimes the worst really does happen . dante : i wish i could make this easier for you . lulu : you are . listening to me , letting me ramble . dante : ramble away . lulu : i have n't heard back from lucky . he barely checks in . i feel like the family that i grew up with is , i do n't know , fading away . dante : well , you got me and rocco . lulu : i know that . and i 'm grateful . you guys are what 's getting me through this . well , you and our plans for the new baby we are gon na bring into the world . [ scene_break ] kristina : i ca n't believe you just threw my brand - new phone ! if that screen is cracked -- molly : kristina , stop worrying about your phone ! mom 's hearing in front of the bar is tonight , and i think we should both be there to support her . kristina : you came all the way here to drag me to her hearing ? molly : well , i did n't expect to find you wasted and drunk - dialing your professor ! please tell me you did n't drive here like this . kristina : [ scoffs ] will you relax ? i was on my way home from the floating rib -- walking -- and i was gon na call an über , but now my phone is javelined . molly : no , kristina , stop ! you are so lucky i grabbed your phone when i did . kristina : yeah , yeah , that 's me -- lucky kristina ! molly : you 're the one who told me that drunk - dialing your exes never ends well . i know parker hurt you , but you need to stop . kristina : yeah , parker hurt me , but it was n't just her doing . molly : what are you talking about ? kristina : mom convinced parker to break up with me . she 's the one who drove her away . molly : well , that is ... kristina : oppressive , controlling , interfering ? yeah , all of the above ? molly : i can see why you 're upset . kristina : i am not upset -- i am done . mom has messed with my life for the last time . i do n't care if she loses her -- her bar license . in fact , i hope that she gets what she deserves . i hope that they throw the freaking book at her ! [ scene_break ] man : ms. miller , the board thanks you for presenting the case on behalf of your client . diane : thank you . man : unfortunately , the facts are not in dispute . district attorney hornsby and mayor lomax were quite clear about the infractions committed . ms. davis defended the late carlos rivera when he was charged with the murder of duke lavery . she took the case knowing full well that her own husband had ordered mr. rivera to commit the crime . this is an absolute conflict of interest . ms. davis failed to execute her role as mr. rivera 's attorney . she refused to consider the da 's offer of reduced charges against mr. rivera in exchange for his testimony . do you dispute any of the claims made against your client ? diane : we do not . man : very well . all that 's left is your closing statement .

[ scene_break ] man : excuse me ? and who might you be ? olivia : olivia falconeri . i 'd like to make a statement . man : ms. falconeri , yes , yes . we have your sworn statement on file , along with commissioner ashford 's . olivia : yeah , but -- but i can make my statement live , right , your honor ? man : uh , i 'm not a judge , and this is not a courtroom . olivia : okay , i apologize . i may not know the exact proper way to address the head of a bar association committee hearing , but that does not make what i have to say any less important . man : this is highly irregular , ms. falconeri , but in the interest of fairness to ms. davis , we 'll hear you out . olivia : great . thanks . okay , first and foremost , no disrespect to anyone , you 're all being played for fools . [ scene_break ] molly : kristina , i know you do n't mean that . you do n't actually want mom to be disbarred . kristina : why should n't i ? it 's about time she learns what it feels like to lose something she cares about . molly : i think she has some recent experience with that life lesson , do n't you ? kristina : why are you so pro - mom all of a sudden ? you 've been fighting with her about julian since day one , since they started dating . molly : exactly ! i 'm mad at julian . i 'm worried mom might have let him compromise her , but that does n't mean i want her to lose her law license . kristina : well , she always tried to teach us about consequences , and now it 's her turn . molly : she needs our love and support . kristina : where was mom 's love and support when i needed it , huh ? when i came out to her , she did n't say the right things . when i finally found someone that i cared about , she sent her away . what kind of love is that ? molly : the kind of love where you let someone hate you so they do n't hurt themselves . kristina : oh , my god . are you taking her side ? [ scene_break ] man : we are being played for fools . by whom , exactly ? olivia : well , mayor lomax , for starters . she 's got a grudge against alexis , and i 'm to blame . man : please explain . olivia : okay . i was trying to breastfeed my baby in public . the mayor objected . we had a minor altercation , and i was arrested . now , the mayor eventually dropped all the charges , but i sued her , and i sued the city , because i did not want the mayor to ever be able to do that to any other mother ever again . man : yes , we 're aware of the case . olivia : okay . the mayor -- she wanted the whole thing to go away . she was intimidating me into dropping the suit , but alexis stood up for me . she stood up for my rights . she went into that courtroom , and she won that case on my behalf . and the mayor 's been looking for payback ever since . man : that is , to say the least , quite a leap . olivia : eh , not really . alexis is married to julian . she did everything in her power to protect her husband without compromising carlos rivera 's case . now , it 's not her fault that julian used her . julian lied to her , that the man that she married , that she thought she loved , turned out to be nothing more than a useless waste of skin . alexis acted in good faith . she made an honest mistake , and the mayor is taking advantage to try and get revenge . and she 's using you -- you -- all of you good people of the board hearing , or whatever you call yourselves , to do it . and you can not let her get away with this . man : well , while unorthodox , we 'd like to thank you for your statement . we 'll take it into account , along with everything else . olivia : great . thank you for your consideration . man : ms. miller , your closing statement . diane : thank you . alexis : if the board would allow , i would like to speak on my own behalf . [ scene_break ] tracy : is n't this just typical ? luke is somewhere on the other side of the world having a high old time , and here we sit waiting to find out if he 's dead . laura : [ chuckling ] yes , well , luke can be an incredibly frustrating person , but we loved him all the same , did n't we ? tracy : [ sighs ] he was a very big part of your life . laura : and yours , too . tracy , you know , i really , really want to apologize to you for the way i barged in on your engagement party . i feel terrible about that now . i never should have done it . i should have explained myself right away instead of just blindly following the directions of some ... thug . tracy : thank you . i appreciate that , but you know what , it was really for the best . that marriage never should have happened . luke has all these demons that he needs to sort out by himself , and -- and personally , i , uh ... i needed the space to re - evaluate my priorities . laura : tracy , are you still in love with luke ? [ scene_break ] alexis : i was raised in a house where there was no justice . my mother was murdered , and no one was ever punished for it . so because i saw no justice , justice became everything to me . and i wanted to do my part to seek it for myself and others , which is why i became a lawyer . i believe in justice . sometimes justice is at odds with what 's best for a client , and i think that gray area is where carlos rivera 's case resides . carlos rivera shot and killed duke lavery , and he did it under the orders of julian jerome . but carlos rivera chose not to disclose julian jerome 's involvement in this defense . it was his decision to remain silent . so my desire to protect my husband at that time had no impact on the case . there is a delicate balance between honoring a client 's wishes and doing what 's best for them . and sometimes we fail to find that equilibrium . and i think that 's what happened in this case . there 's a difference between knowing the law and practicing it . and we can only improve if we learn from our mistakes . i can do better . i will do better . but only if you let me try . [ scene_break ] molly : you have to see that you 're spiraling . everybody else can see it . and if you 're not gon na pull yourself out of it , someone else is gon na have to do it for you . kristina : spiraling ? because i had one too many drinks tonight ? molly : no , spiraling because you got suspended for making inappropriate advances on a professor ! and then that professor turns around and sleeps with you , and it never occurs to you that the woman is using you , kristina , and that she does n't care about you at all ! kristina : oh , i see your point . because you know everything . you have since you were 15 . you are so lucky . molly : no , do n't twist what i 'm saying . this is not about me . kristina : of course , it is ! you get off on this ! molly : excuse me ? kristina : my screw - ups make you look even more perfect than you already think you are . molly : i 'm trying to help you . kristina : you are judging me . i wish i had a rewind button , so you could hear yourself , because everything i do is wrong , and everything that you do is absolutely justified . molly : that is not true . kristina : oh , my god . [ laughs ] i can not wait for the day when you wake up in a perfect little house with a perfect picket fence and your perfect husband and your 2.5 kids , and you realize that you have never lived a day at all . and when you do , do n't come running to me , because all i will have for you is pity . molly : you 're a mean drunk . kristina : yeah , well , at least i 'm honest . in vino veritas . that 's latin . molly : yeah , well , here 's some veritas for you , kristina . any time you have a choice , you always pick the wrong one . you always lean towards chaos . you latch onto whoever will hurt you the most . whether it 's a man or a woman , you certainly have a type . [ scene_break ] franco : i really went after you . i did n't realize that you were the one who had defended me to the cops , and so i 'm -- i 'm sorry . elizabeth : okay . thank you . i accept your apology . franco : that 's great . is there anything you need to apologize to me for ? elizabeth : um [ chuckles ] such as ... ? franco : well , you let me go on the tirade . you made no effort to stop me . you could have interrupted -- `` excuse me , franco , but i 'm the one who told the cops you do n't fit the timeline , that you could n't have murdered dear , sweet mrs. prescott . `` that 's my impersonation of you . how 'd i do ? elizabeth : [ chuckles ] really , you -- you let me behave like an idiot . i was all wounded and self- righteous . elizabeth : you did sound pretty defensive . franco : i was scared . i thought you doubted my innocence . i thought you were questioning ever being involved with me . but all those thoughts are gone now , right ? [ scene_break ] dante : okay , let 's hear it . lulu : hear what ? dante : what else you found at the flea market ? lulu : who said that i found anything else ? dante : oh , please , you 've been obsessed ever since we closed on the house . lulu : i might have found a dresser ... dante : uh - huh . lulu : ... and an end table . dante : yeah . lulu : they need a little bit of work . dante : uh , how much work ? lulu : nothing that we ca n't handle together . dante : yeah , see , here 's the thing -- you 're gon na be pregnant . you 're not gon na want to be inhaling all those fumes . and i 'm gon na be the one doing all the work by myself . lulu : baby , that is so sweet of you to volunteer . dante : yeah , i was n't , but not that i 'm not willing to . lulu : yeah , it did n't seem like you want to do it at all . dante : see , the thing is i do n't know how to do it . i 'm not a carpenter , baby . you want me to time an engine ? i can do that in my sleep . i spent enough time in my grandfather 's garage , but i know nothing about refinishing furniture . lulu : it is surprisingly easy . dante : oh , i 'm sure . lulu : i looked it up online . dante : mm - hmm . lulu : do n't you want your baby to have a dresser with character ? something that did n't come out of one of those warehouse stores by the millions ? [ cell phone ringing ] lulu : it 's the hospital . dante : it 's okay . i 'm right here . lulu : hello ? this is she . oh . okay , i understand . thank you so much . that was not the lab results . that was dr. lee 's office . my malaria test came back negative . dante : oh . thank god . lulu : she said that i could come in tomorrow to start the hormones , which means , before you know it , i will be ready to carry our child . mwah ! [ laughs ] [ scene_break ] tracy : am i still in love with luke ? well , i have certainly tried hard enough not to be . but i have n't been able to shake him yet . laura : i used to feel like that . tracy : what changed ? laura : [ chuckles ] a lot . i mean , i was just a teenager when i first met luke . yes , i was married to scotty , but i was really just a kid playing house . and then i fell for him , and he whisked me off on this bigger - than - life adventure . i thought it was very cool , very sophisticated . [ chuckles ] yeah . and then we , um -- we married and we had kids . i never really grew up at all , because i was always the damsel in distress . and he was always there to save me . and , you know , even when i would reconnect with scotty , he would treat me like a child . you know , and why would n't he ? [ chuckles ] but you know the funny thing about that ? when people continue to treat you like a child , you continue to behave like one . so , um , i actually do n't think it was until very recently , maybe in these past few years , where i 've been on my own , that i finally started to grow up , you know ? no more kids to raise . no more husbands to please or to define me . i finally started to define myself . woman : i believe you 're both waiting on the dna match for luke spencer ? they 're ready . laura : what are the results ? woman : the hair follicle was tested against the skin cells left on the bracelet . using identifying markers , we were able -- tracy : cut to the chase , please . just tell us . is it luke 's bracelet ? woman : our lab can say with 99 % confidence that the skin cells and hair sample do n't match . tracy : ohh ! laura : it was n't him . it was n't him . tracy : i knew it , i knew it , i knew it . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : what happened at your studio got to me , and it still bothers me . franco : am i the first guy that 's ever been questioned about a series of murders while you were on your first date with him ? elizabeth : it started before the police got there . i was just uncomfortable . franco : okay . but not the whole time , right ? i mean , when i showed you the painting that i 'm working on , you seemed to really like that . elizabeth : and i did . i did . and for a while , i could just see you as an eccentric artist . franco : for a little while . elizabeth : franco , your -- your past , it 's violent , and it 's unstable , and i know you 've been absolved medically and legally , but sometimes when i look at you , and i think i 'm seeing you for who you really are , something happens , and -- and it triggers memories of who you used to be . franco : i 'm trying . really , i 'm trying really hard ... elizabeth : i know . franco : ... you know ... elizabeth : i know . franco : ... to be someone different . elizabeth : i know . it 's me . i do n't think i 'll be able to make peace with who you used to be or what you did . franco : what are you saying to me ? elizabeth : i do n't think we should see each other anymore .

alexis goes to her hearing with diane representing her and is very worried . the judge declares that she has to `` pay a penalty `` for her actions . yet he tells her she is not disbarred and is merely temporary suspended from practicing law . alone with diane , however , alexis admits she does not know how she can go on without her law practice when she has nothing else in her life . she has been trying and failing to reach kristina who refuses to return her calls and texts . kristina drinks , gets very upset and leaves hostile messages for parker after finding out that her mom put her professor up to dumping kristina . molly however , finds her and although kristina yells at her sister and tells her she wants to be alone , kristina breaks down crying , molly comforts and encourages her not to give up and they go off together while alexis continues to unsuccessfully attempt to reach her daughter . franco finds elizabeth in the parking garage and although she tells him she 's enjoyed spending time with him and values him , she knows it 's unrealistic for them to continue seeing each other . he protests that he sees her as his angel who can encourage him to see good in himself . yet she tells him she can not be that for him . lulu , laura and tracy are all awaiting finding out if the bracelet from the skeleton found in greece belongs to luke , by doing a dna test . although they fear the worst , that luke is dead , the test results reveal the dna does not match . laura asks tracy if she is still in love with luke and if so , tracy needs to connect to him . lulu and dante are happy to hear the results and are ready to have another baby .

[ scene_break ] alexis : [ sighs ] how much longer do you think it will take ? diane : well , we still have to make our closing argument . alexis : it really does n't matter what you say anyway , because they 've already decided that they 're going to disbar me . and this is where you reassure me that that 's not going to happen . diane : alexis , we presented you in the best possible light . if the board can find any gray area in what you did with julian and carlos , then i think you 've got a shot .

[ scene_break ] man : ms. miller , the board thanks you for presenting the case on behalf of your client . diane : thank you . man : unfortunately , the facts are not in dispute . district attorney hornsby and mayor lomax were quite clear about the infractions committed . ms. davis defended the late carlos rivera when he was charged with the murder of duke lavery . she took the case knowing full well that her own husband had ordered mr. rivera to commit the crime . this is an absolute conflict of interest . ms. davis failed to execute her role as mr. rivera 's attorney . she refused to consider the da 's offer of reduced charges against mr. rivera in exchange for his testimony . do you dispute any of the claims made against your client ? diane : we do not . man : very well . all that 's left is your closing statement .

[ scene_break ] franco : where are you going ? say hello . elizabeth : you were hiding in the back seat of my car . franco : yeah , you should lock your car . elizabeth : oh , my god . i did . i always do . franco : you left a window down a little bit . elizabeth : what -- what were you doing in my car ? franco : i need to talk to you . i really need to talk to you . and i ca n't see you at work , because of the suspension . i 'm not allowed on hospital grounds , which apparently includes the parking garage . found that out the hard way . elizabeth : i have a house . franco : if i had come to your house and knocked on the door and you had opened the door and seen my face , you would have slammed the door , and then you would n't have a chance to hear this really important thing that i have to say to you . elizabeth : which is what ? franco : i 'm sorry .

[ scene_break ] molly : kristina , i know you do n't mean that . you do n't actually want mom to be disbarred . kristina : why should n't i ? it 's about time she learns what it feels like to lose something she cares about . molly : i think she has some recent experience with that life lesson , do n't you ? kristina : why are you so pro - mom all of a sudden ? you 've been fighting with her about julian since day one , since they started dating . molly : exactly ! i 'm mad at julian . i 'm worried mom might have let him compromise her , but that does n't mean i want her to lose her law license . kristina : well , she always tried to teach us about consequences , and now it 's her turn . molly : she needs our love and support . kristina : where was mom 's love and support when i needed it , huh ? when i came out to her , she did n't say the right things . when i finally found someone that i cared about , she sent her away . what kind of love is that ? molly : the kind of love where you let someone hate you so they do n't hurt themselves . kristina : oh , my god . are you taking her side ? [ scene_break ] man : we are being played for fools . by whom , exactly ? olivia : well , mayor lomax , for starters . she 's got a grudge against alexis , and i 'm to blame . man : please explain . olivia : okay . i was trying to breastfeed my baby in public . the mayor objected . we had a minor altercation , and i was arrested . now , the mayor eventually dropped all the charges , but i sued her , and i sued the city , because i did not want the mayor to ever be able to do that to any other mother ever again . man : yes , we 're aware of the case . olivia : okay . the mayor -- she wanted the whole thing to go away . she was intimidating me into dropping the suit , but alexis stood up for me . she stood up for my rights . she went into that courtroom , and she won that case on my behalf . and the mayor 's been looking for payback ever since . man : that is , to say the least , quite a leap . olivia : eh , not really . alexis is married to julian . she did everything in her power to protect her husband without compromising carlos rivera 's case . now , it 's not her fault that julian used her . julian lied to her , that the man that she married , that she thought she loved , turned out to be nothing more than a useless waste of skin . alexis acted in good faith . she made an honest mistake , and the mayor is taking advantage to try and get revenge . and she 's using you -- you -- all of you good people of the board hearing , or whatever you call yourselves , to do it . and you can not let her get away with this . man : well , while unorthodox , we 'd like to thank you for your statement . we 'll take it into account , along with everything else . olivia : great . thank you for your consideration . man : ms. miller , your closing statement . diane : thank you . alexis : if the board would allow , i would like to speak on my own behalf . [ scene_break ] tracy : is n't this just typical ? luke is somewhere on the other side of the world having a high old time , and here we sit waiting to find out if he 's dead . laura : [ chuckling ] yes , well , luke can be an incredibly frustrating person , but we loved him all the same , did n't we ? tracy : [ sighs ] he was a very big part of your life . laura : and yours , too . tracy , you know , i really , really want to apologize to you for the way i barged in on your engagement party . i feel terrible about that now . i never should have done it . i should have explained myself right away instead of just blindly following the directions of some ... thug . tracy : thank you . i appreciate that , but you know what , it was really for the best . that marriage never should have happened . luke has all these demons that he needs to sort out by himself , and -- and personally , i , uh ... i needed the space to re - evaluate my priorities . laura : tracy , are you still in love with luke ? [ scene_break ] alexis : i was raised in a house where there was no justice . my mother was murdered , and no one was ever punished for it . so because i saw no justice , justice became everything to me . and i wanted to do my part to seek it for myself and others , which is why i became a lawyer . i believe in justice . sometimes justice is at odds with what 's best for a client , and i think that gray area is where carlos rivera 's case resides . carlos rivera shot and killed duke lavery , and he did it under the orders of julian jerome . but carlos rivera chose not to disclose julian jerome 's involvement in this defense . it was his decision to remain silent . so my desire to protect my husband at that time had no impact on the case . there is a delicate balance between honoring a client 's wishes and doing what 's best for them . and sometimes we fail to find that equilibrium . and i think that 's what happened in this case . there 's a difference between knowing the law and practicing it . and we can only improve if we learn from our mistakes . i can do better . i will do better . but only if you let me try . [ scene_break ] molly : you have to see that you 're spiraling . everybody else can see it . and if you 're not gon na pull yourself out of it , someone else is gon na have to do it for you . kristina : spiraling ? because i had one too many drinks tonight ? molly : no , spiraling because you got suspended for making inappropriate advances on a professor ! and then that professor turns around and sleeps with you , and it never occurs to you that the woman is using you , kristina , and that she does n't care about you at all ! kristina : oh , i see your point . because you know everything . you have since you were 15 . you are so lucky . molly : no , do n't twist what i 'm saying . this is not about me . kristina : of course , it is ! you get off on this ! molly : excuse me ? kristina : my screw - ups make you look even more perfect than you already think you are . molly : i 'm trying to help you . kristina : you are judging me . i wish i had a rewind button , so you could hear yourself , because everything i do is wrong , and everything that you do is absolutely justified . molly : that is not true . kristina : oh , my god . [ laughs ] i can not wait for the day when you wake up in a perfect little house with a perfect picket fence and your perfect husband and your 2.5 kids , and you realize that you have never lived a day at all . and when you do , do n't come running to me , because all i will have for you is pity . molly : you 're a mean drunk . kristina : yeah , well , at least i 'm honest . in vino veritas . that 's latin . molly : yeah , well , here 's some veritas for you , kristina . any time you have a choice , you always pick the wrong one . you always lean towards chaos . you latch onto whoever will hurt you the most . whether it 's a man or a woman , you certainly have a type . [ scene_break ] franco : i really went after you . i did n't realize that you were the one who had defended me to the cops , and so i 'm -- i 'm sorry . elizabeth : okay . thank you . i accept your apology . franco : that 's great . is there anything you need to apologize to me for ? elizabeth : um [ chuckles ] such as ... ? franco : well , you let me go on the tirade . you made no effort to stop me . you could have interrupted -- `` excuse me , franco , but i 'm the one who told the cops you do n't fit the timeline , that you could n't have murdered dear , sweet mrs. prescott . `` that 's my impersonation of you . how 'd i do ? elizabeth : [ chuckles ] really , you -- you let me behave like an idiot . i was all wounded and self- righteous . elizabeth : you did sound pretty defensive . franco : i was scared . i thought you doubted my innocence . i thought you were questioning ever being involved with me . but all those thoughts are gone now , right ? [ scene_break ] dante : okay , let 's hear it . lulu : hear what ? dante : what else you found at the flea market ? lulu : who said that i found anything else ? dante : oh , please , you 've been obsessed ever since we closed on the house . lulu : i might have found a dresser ... dante : uh - huh . lulu : ... and an end table . dante : yeah . lulu : they need a little bit of work . dante : uh , how much work ? lulu : nothing that we ca n't handle together . dante : yeah , see , here 's the thing -- you 're gon na be pregnant . you 're not gon na want to be inhaling all those fumes . and i 'm gon na be the one doing all the work by myself . lulu : baby , that is so sweet of you to volunteer . dante : yeah , i was n't , but not that i 'm not willing to . lulu : yeah , it did n't seem like you want to do it at all . dante : see , the thing is i do n't know how to do it . i 'm not a carpenter , baby . you want me to time an engine ? i can do that in my sleep . i spent enough time in my grandfather 's garage , but i know nothing about refinishing furniture . lulu : it is surprisingly easy . dante : oh , i 'm sure . lulu : i looked it up online . dante : mm - hmm . lulu : do n't you want your baby to have a dresser with character ? something that did n't come out of one of those warehouse stores by the millions ? [ cell phone ringing ] lulu : it 's the hospital . dante : it 's okay . i 'm right here . lulu : hello ? this is she . oh . okay , i understand . thank you so much . that was not the lab results . that was dr. lee 's office . my malaria test came back negative . dante : oh . thank god . lulu : she said that i could come in tomorrow to start the hormones , which means , before you know it , i will be ready to carry our child . mwah ! [ laughs ] [ scene_break ] tracy : am i still in love with luke ? well , i have certainly tried hard enough not to be . but i have n't been able to shake him yet . laura : i used to feel like that . tracy : what changed ? laura : [ chuckles ] a lot . i mean , i was just a teenager when i first met luke . yes , i was married to scotty , but i was really just a kid playing house . and then i fell for him , and he whisked me off on this bigger - than - life adventure . i thought it was very cool , very sophisticated . [ chuckles ] yeah . and then we , um -- we married and we had kids . i never really grew up at all , because i was always the damsel in distress . and he was always there to save me . and , you know , even when i would reconnect with scotty , he would treat me like a child . you know , and why would n't he ? [ chuckles ] but you know the funny thing about that ? when people continue to treat you like a child , you continue to behave like one . so , um , i actually do n't think it was until very recently , maybe in these past few years , where i 've been on my own , that i finally started to grow up , you know ? no more kids to raise . no more husbands to please or to define me . i finally started to define myself . woman : i believe you 're both waiting on the dna match for luke spencer ? they 're ready . laura : what are the results ? woman : the hair follicle was tested against the skin cells left on the bracelet . using identifying markers , we were able -- tracy : cut to the chase , please . just tell us . is it luke 's bracelet ? woman : our lab can say with 99 % confidence that the skin cells and hair sample do n't match . tracy : ohh ! laura : it was n't him . it was n't him . tracy : i knew it , i knew it , i knew it . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : what happened at your studio got to me , and it still bothers me . franco : am i the first guy that 's ever been questioned about a series of murders while you were on your first date with him ? elizabeth : it started before the police got there . i was just uncomfortable . franco : okay . but not the whole time , right ? i mean , when i showed you the painting that i 'm working on , you seemed to really like that . elizabeth : and i did . i did . and for a while , i could just see you as an eccentric artist . franco : for a little while . elizabeth : franco , your -- your past , it 's violent , and it 's unstable , and i know you 've been absolved medically and legally , but sometimes when i look at you , and i think i 'm seeing you for who you really are , something happens , and -- and it triggers memories of who you used to be . franco : i 'm trying . really , i 'm trying really hard ... elizabeth : i know . franco : ... you know ... elizabeth : i know . franco : ... to be someone different . elizabeth : i know . it 's me . i do n't think i 'll be able to make peace with who you used to be or what you did . franco : what are you saying to me ? elizabeth : i do n't think we should see each other anymore .

[ scene_break ] [ luke coughs ] [ luke gasps ] sam : ok . [ scene_break ] sonny : you may have been able to convince a judge to grant you temporary custody of the kids , but do n't get used to it because that 's all it 's going to be -- temporary . carly : the courts favor the mother , sonny . sonny : yeah , well , not when the mother was unfaithful . carly : you slept with sam before i turned to lorenzo . you know what ? you better rethink your attitude and find some way to work this out with me . otherwise , you 're going to be the one who does not get to see your children anymore . sonny : what 's there to work out ? i caught you with another man . you sent him to my house to kidnap my children , a man who repeatedly tried to kill me , who kidnapped courtney , who kidnapped you . but i guess that does n't matter to you , but you know how i am , carly . i am not going to let you win . carly : is that what this is ? a way to punish me ? well , you can hate me all you want , sonny -- i do n't give a damn anymore -- but you are not walking away with my children . sonny : this is not about punishing you , carly . carly : of course it is . if you were rational or capable enough to set aside your anger and put the boys ' interests first , you would 've allowed me to visit them already . sonny : well , last time i looked , you were spending all your time with alcazar . you guys are , like , together . you proved you 're an unfit mother by allowing our children to have any kind of contact with the man . but , you know , i know that you conveniently wiped it out of your mind -- he 's a drug lord . carly : you kill people ! sonny : do n't you dare defend alcazar to me . the day i allow this bastard to have any kind of role in my children 's lives , i will take them and disappear . carly : you do n't mean that . sonny : no ? well , put it to the test . you 'll never see michael and morgan again . [ scene_break ] dillon : ha . i do n't understand . i had a reservation for a suite , a confirmed reservation . sage : we 've been looking forward to this for a really long time . is n't there something you can do ? georgie : look , not to be rude or anything , but we were here first . man : i 'm sorry , miss jones . i realize you 're anxious to get the room you reserved . however , we -- dillon : wait , wait , wait , wait . the room you reserved ? i thought this was tom 's idea . georgie : it was , right ? travis : right . well , you know , the thing is , i mean , i 've been kind of busy , and i had georgie handle all the details . but i 'm definitely paying , though . is this enough ? man : miss jones , mr. quartermaine , what i 'm trying to tell you is no one is getting the room they originally booked . we 're short two floors due to renovations , and because of the auction , we 're at full capacity . we 've had to do some reshuffling . sage : well , as long as the room has a bed , i 'm sure we 'll be fine . wo n't we ? [ scene_break ] ric : so did you see anything suspicious before or during the auction ? lorenzo : i had a representative attend the bidding for me . ric : hmm . lorenzo : i only arrived at the conclusion to make the payment and claim the treasure , which , of course , has vanished . ric : why in the world did you want the treasure ? lorenzo : as an investment . many of the pieces have significant historical value , and i have the luxury of waiting for a buyer who 's willing to pay full price . anything else you need from me ? ric : no . you 're free to go . thank you . [ scene_break ] lucky : so you and my dad have gotten pretty close lately . fair statement ? skye : that depends on where you 're going . lucky : well , has he said anything about wanting the treasure ? skye : since your father 's been back in town , his main focus has been the haunted star . now , is he under suspicion ? lucky : with me ? always . skye : well , am i ? lucky : not so far . skye : well , good , because the only reason that i came here was to support nikolas and emily during this auction . so i would like to leave now , if that 's ok . lucky : sure . thanks for your time . [ scene_break ] alexis : look , while we were n't able to ensure the safety of the treasure -- cameron : alexis , i need to talk to you . alexis : ok , give me two more -- cameron : it can wait . alexis : excuse me . nikolas : ok . alexis : what are you doing ? cameron : if you 're done mourning the loss of your nephew 's treasure , maybe you could refocus on saving my son 's life . [ scene_break ] dillon : oh , no , i do n't believe this . georgie : the rooms adjoin ? bellhop : you can leave it open and go back and forth as you wish . dillon : i do n't think we 'll be doing that .

[ scene_break ] dillon : hey , there 's no access to the other room , right , as long as we keep the door locked ? bellhop : you 'll have complete privacy . sage : that 's what we wanted to hear . [ scene_break ] carly : you would actually take my sons and disappear ? sonny : only as a last resort . i 'd prefer to fight you in court . you 've lied a lot , infidelity -- it 's going to -- you know , it 's going to get ugly . carly : sonny , will you listen to us ? how did we get to this horrible place so fast ? sonny : i do n't know , you know , things happen . carly : do you think that -- that you and me at war with each other does any good for our children at all ? sonny : i 'm not going to let you have them . carly : so what is my alternative , sonny ? you want me to just step aside and let you shut me out of my children 's life ? i mean , how do you expect me to do that ? sonny : well , i do n't see the compromise . what am i supposed to do ? kiss michael and morgan goodbye and send them across town to you and alcazar ? carly : you would be sending them to me , sonny . i am their mother ! it has nothing to do with alcazar ! lorenzo : i was afraid i would find you here .

[ scene_break ] ric : all right , thanks . emily : you fought with zander ? nikolas : yeah . emily : why did n't you tell me ? nikolas : because i did n't want you to look at me the way you are now , and i wanted him in jail before you could hear about it . emily : well , your timing is n't that far off . the police are probably arresting zander as we speak . [ scene_break ] alexis : ric lansing has agreed to recuse himself from his case . now , as soon as the paperwork is filed , i 'll speak to a judge , and we can talk about the terms of zander 's surrender . cameron : well , that all sounds very leisurely , but given zander 's volatility , you think you might do something to move things along ? alexis : what do you suggest i do , cameron ? cameron : because by the time everybody 's mulled things over to everyone else 's satisfaction , my son could be dead . [ scene_break ] mac : all right , the caller said smith was incapacitated , but he 's been known to be violent , so we 're going in armed . smith ! it 's the police , we 're coming in !

chelsea : you want to go over and join them ? adam : nah , i 've already had one successful moment with pops . i , uh -- better not push it . chelsea : are you sure ? adam : you know , this whole parade has been about victor . but the rest of the night , i am gon na make it about you . additional sponsorship jill : boy , they really are throwing snowballs in hell , are n't they ? jack : you 're looking lovely as ever . jill : [ laughs ] as are you . can you believe that we climbed into our glad rags to honor victor newman ? jack : yeah , the champagne toast did taste a little bitter , but your spirited speech certainly made up for it . jack : well , you got to give the devil his due , you know ? we may have hated the son of a bitch , but you had to admire what he 's built here . jack : yeah . jill : he 's made his mark , has n't he ? jack : yeah , he left some of those marks on two of us , if you 'll recall . jill : oh , come on . we got our licks in . jack : yeah , i guess . frankly , he 's not the only one i 'm thinking of right now . jill : let me guess . you 're as worried about billy as i am . jack : billy has made a series of bad choices lately . jill : [ sighs ] i know , and he 's barely returning my calls these days . jack : yeah , same here . jill : whenever he isolates , it 's not a good thing . jack : well , what are we gon na do about it ? he 's a grown man . he makes his own choices . did he ever really listen to anyone ? jill : periodically , yes , he did . jack : well , apparently now is n't one of those times . jill : [ sighs ] so is it really over between him and victoria ? jack : i think she 's had enough . jill : my god , she 's said that before . jack : it is n't like she is n't trying .. billy keeps changing the rules . jill : i know . jack : and i think she 's just done . jill : i 'm not blaming her , jack . i just adore her . i -- i thought she was perfect for him . jack : yeah , so did i . so did everyone else , except billy , apparently . jill : i think he needs a purpose , you know ? i think he needs something to get him off this treadmill of self - destruction he 's on . jack : if you have any thoughts , now is the time to speak up . i am fresh out of ideas . amanda : how are you feeling ? billy : halfway to no pain at all . amanda : i was talking about your accident . billy : yeah , no , i 'm fine . i 'm fine . just like dr . nate said i was . amanda : okay , well , i am glad you 're okay . billy : thank you . amanda : you have a good evening . billy : amanda . amanda . it seems like you 're a little distant . amanda : i 'm just busy . billy : which would make sense why it kind of feels like you 're trying to end the conversation as soon as possible . and i just ca n't help but think maybe your good friend nate had something to do with that . his disapproval was very clear when he examined me after my accident . amanda : i make my own decisions about who i choose to spend time with . just like you do . billy : i meant no offense . amanda : no offense taken . billy : well , it 's probably a good thing that you steer clear of me , anyway , you know , because maybe everybody 's right . [ exhales sharply ] maybe i am like a ticking time bomb . boom ! paul : you know , this is really quite a piece of work . christine : noah 's got real talent . [ sighs ] well , victor does have the gift of a loving family . paul : [ chuckles ] well , families can be a lot more forgiving than the rest of us . christine : well , i 've pretty much forgiven him . paul : really ? even after the lawsuit that led to your stepping down as district attorney ? christine : yeah , i had to let it go , all right ? more for me than for him because i love my life now . i get to be a private person again , out of the fishbowl , out of the line of fire . let victor have his glory . it means far more to him than it ever would to me . paul : [ chuckles ] abby : so , i 'm sorry , adam saved your life ? chance : my cover was about to be blown . thanks to adam , the guy that was gon na expose me , he ... he suddenly fell off the radar . abby : `` off the radar , `` meaning ... you know what , i do n't need to know . chance : you 're learning . abby : so that 's the information that phyllis used to get chelsea to sell her shares in the grand phoenix . chance : that 's right . only she 's not stopping there . phyllis is coming after your shares , too . abby : she wants the entire hotel ? chance : she even tried to persuade me to persuade you . i , of course , told her no , but ... abby : [ sighs ] chance : i thought you needed to know . abby : that miserable , conniving bitch . phyllis : [ laughs ] chance : abby , no . abby ! abby : i need to make a few things very , very clear . sharon : thank you . nikki : sharon . sharon : nikki . nikki : how are you ? sharon : well , i 'm not pregnant , but that could always change . the night is still young . no , um ... that 's not what i wanted to say . nikki : good , because , frankly , i 'm tired of trading barbs with you . sharon : what i wanted to tell you is ... i have cancer , nikki . breast cancer . amanda : where are you going ? billy : out . amanda : i can see that . out where ? billy : oh , no , you do n't have to worry about that . there wo n't be any accidents . i , uh , got myself a car . amanda : you did n't answer my question . billy : where am i going ? to pay tribute to the man himself . victor : by the way , i had no idea that you had returned to photography . noah : well , it is my first love . i feel like it 's where i have the most to contribute . i know that you wanted me to come back to newman enterprises . i hope you 're not disappointed . victor : we 'll never mention that . i 'm not disappointed at all . i mean , look at us , three generations of newmans . we all have forged our own way . and , by the way , that installation in there ? that moved me a lot . looks fantastic . i love it . you have talent , son . use it wisely , okay ? nick : if i were you , i would take that advice to the bank . noah : i will . victor : that 's right . noah : thank you , grandpa . that means a lot to me . victor : and now that you 've paid homage to your grandfather , i think someone else would like to see you , right ? noah : there is , yeah . victor : okay . you say hello to your mother , okay ? noah : i will . victor : all right . noah : thank you , grandpa . i love you . nick : that was cool , dad . abby : i need to make something very , very clear . phyllis : oh , my gosh , abby , it 's a party , relax . abby : no , you -- you do n't get to tell me to relax . you do n't get to tell me anything . phyllis : oh , my goodness . there is a bee in your bonnet . clearly . abby : let 's talk about how you 're blackmailing chelsea into selling her shares of the hotel . phyllis : i find `` blackmail `` to be a very harsh word . chelsea : it fits you . phyllis : okay , well , why do n't talk about how chelsea put everybody in danger with that hostage crisis ? you 're lucky that i got her out . abby : i want you out . phyllis : okay , listen , love , that 's not going to happen . we 're 50/50 partners right now unless you want to sell me your shares . chelsea : oh , my god . abby : you know , chance told me that you were going to try to strong - arm me into selling my shares . well , that 's not going to happen , love . phyllis : aww , did he tell you that ? interesting . abby : yeah , he did , and he also told me what happened in vegas . adam did n't act alone . yeah , i know . chelsea : you know about that ? abby : do n't worry . i 'll keep it quiet . phyllis : seriously ? you 're going to stand by chance , even though you know that he committed a crime without adam . abby : blackmail is also a crime , phyllis . you should know , you went to prison for it . phyllis : okay , well , this partnership clearly is not going to work out . abby : no , probably not . phyllis : well , why do n't you just put yourself out of misery and sell me your shares of the hotel ? abby : no way in hell . chance : well , i guess i do n't need to ask what this little skirmish is about . chance : i was careless . now phyllis knows everything . adam : well , do n't beat yourself up . you 're not the first person phyllis got the drop on , present company included . chance : adam , she knows what happened . she 's got us on tape talking about it , and you 're telling me you 're not worried ? adam : not particularly , no . chance : well , maybe you should be . she can use this tape as a weapon against us for as long as she wants . do n't think for a minute that she 's going to stop at this hotel . you 've tried so many moisturizers ... adam : let me give you a little insight into phyllis , okay ? she 's tough , she 's smart , & she 's tenacious . i mean , seriously , how many times did she dog us to try to find out information about las vegas ? we got outplayed . she won this round . chance : it almost sounds like you admire her . adam : she 's as cutthroat as they come . chance : and now she 's got enough to put both of our heads on the chopping block . adam : she 's got what she wanted . she owns half the hotel now . she 'll be happy for a while . we 'll be off her radar , okay ? chance : for now . adam : chance . she will overreach , like she always does . she 'll bend the rules . she 'll cross the line , and eventually give us enough dirt to turn around on her , okay ? check . checkmate . chance : i do n't know if you 're right , adam . adam : i 've done this dance with her before , okay ? i 'm pretty confident how it 's going to turn out . chance : it did n't turn out too well for chelsea . adam : losing her shares of the hotel was a blow , okay ? i wo n't deny that . but now she 's free . chance : and now abby gets to be in phyllis 's crosshairs . adam : she does n't have to be . she wants to hang onto the grand albatross , that 's on her , chance . phyllis : i 'm gon na make you a good offer for your shares , more than what they 're worth . how about that ? just to be nice . abby : my answer will still be no . phyllis : mm , your choice . abby : my choice right now is to go get a drink . chelsea : that 's a great idea . abby : why do n't you go mingle with your friends , phyllis , if you can find any here . phyllis : hey . nick : you know ... you have a unique talent for ticking people off . phyllis : oh , well . you know , got to do what i got to do . nick : yeah , but that means you 're stirring up trouble . i thought you 'd gotten past that . phyllis : well , you know , sometimes , a girl has got to put on her crown just so people know what they 're dealing with . nikki : it 's stage ii ? sharon : yes , which is good -- i mean , comparatively speaking . um ... the chemotherapy has been rough , but , so far , i 'm getting through it . nikki : i remember when my sister casey was fighting cancer , the nausea and the fatigue ... sharon : yeah . that comes and goes . i know that the next few months are going to be tough , but nicholas has been great through the whole process . nikki : oh . so he 's known for a while ? sharon : yes . after rey , he was one of the first people i told . nikki : that explains why he 's been visiting you so much lately . sharon : it would be great if you could be there for him and noah and faith . i think sometimes it can be almost as hard on families as it is on the patient . nikki : of course . i 'll do anything i can to help . sharon : thank you . so if i have any more wobbly moments like before , now you 'll why . nikki : sharon . i just want to say , if you can get past all of our battles the last several years , you can beat this , too . sharon : thank you . victoria : is n't it spectacular ? christine : incredibly . you have a very talented nephew . victoria : oh , thank you . you know , i 'm really glad you both are here . i know that things have been tense between you and my father in recent years . paul : oh , you know , we 've all had our disagreements . but , you know what , no one -- no can deny victor 's accomplishments . just take a look around the room . victoria : that 's true . christine : i have n't seen billy around . where is he hiding ? victor : billy abbott will never come to a newman event again . amanda : this is n't a good idea , billy . billy : that 's the story of my life . amanda : if you go to victor 's party , it is not going to end well . billy : well , lucky for me , i have a great attorney to bail me out . amanda : uh , no . no , not this time . not if you go there deliberately looking for trouble . billy : uh ... ding , ding . that 's my car . hey , do n't worry . i promise you , i 'm gon na behave myself . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . rey : what was going on just now with you and nikki ? sharon : um ... i told her about the cancer . rey : why ? sharon : because the longer this goes on , the more i 'm realizing it 's not just about me anymore . this is affecting everyone close to me , and i do n't want to sound them with the additional burden of having to keep my secret . rey : you know , i 'm with you , no matter what . sharon : i do . and i 'm so grateful . noah : mom . how you feeling ? sharon : um , well , to be honest , it 's been a long night . and i was just going to ask rey to take me home . noah : i can take you . uh , if that 's all right with you . rey : you two go on ahead . bye . mwah . sharon : bye . jill : victoria . victoria : hi , jill . jill : how are you ? victoria : i 'm okay , but if it 's all the same to you , i 'd rather not discuss my breakup with billy tonight . jill : no , no , no , no , no . i was n't going to ask you about that . well , okay , maybe i was going to ask you about that . listen to me . i know how terribly frustrating he can be , all right ? there are times that i 've wanted to throttle him . i 've been there . but , honey , he is such a good man . deep down , he is . you know he is . victoria : i do n't really care anymore . jill : you do n't care ? victoria : billy wants more out of life than i have to offer . that 's the beginning , the middle , and the end . so the sooner that we can all accept that , the better . phyllis : to live in the shadow of a legend . calling this iconic man `` dad . `` [ chuckles ] nick : i , uh ... i guess in your mind he 's more infamous than he is iconic . be honest . you want to smash this installation into 1,000 pieces ? phyllis : he raised you . and groomed you to follow his footsteps in business , and you did n't want to , and you disappointed him , and ... and you betrayed him and he forgave you . he never stopped loving you , and vice versa . you 're reflecting on all of that now , right ? nick : [ chuckles ] you know , you are amazing . one minute , you are driving my little sister crazy ... the next , you 're digging deep into my soul and figuring out exactly how i 'm feeling at this moment . phyllis : one of my many talents and gifts . nick : oh , okay . how do you do it ? how do you just turn it on and off like that ? phyllis : what ? you have n't figured me out by now ? nick : i 've been trying for years . phyllis : [ giggles ] nick : every time i think i 've figured it out , you throw me another curve ball . phyllis : what ? seriously ? i guess that 's why every time i make you angry , you ca n't cut ties with me . nick : our daughter may have something to do with it . phyllis : oh . yeah , yeah . that 's not why . i think it drives you crazy to leave things unfinished , and i 'm like a puzzle piece that you just have to figure out where it goes , right ? nick : you , uh , want to give me a hint ? phyllis : i 'm the same woman i 've always been . you see me . you know i am . i am ... deeply flawed ... with quirks ... ... and a heart . nick : you have a huge heart . sometimes i think it 's so big that it scares you , so you do all this crazy stuff to try and protect it . phyllis : stop acting like you 're not the one person in the world who knows me better than anyone else . jill : good to see you . lauren : okay . bye . michael : see you ! jack : you 're leaving so soon ? jill : i 'm not much in a partying mood after my little talk with victoria . jack : was i right ? jill : yeah . you were right . this looks like it really is it for them . jack : here . billy : hey . lauren : hey ! billy : uh ... do you know where victoria is ? michael : i have n't seen her for a while . lauren : you know , i think maybe she 's in the art installation ... michael : oh ! lauren : right through those doors , straight -- billy : thank you . yep . lauren : okay . billy : hey . a double tequila , please ? elena : hey , they 're pretty chummy . devon : yeah , they are , huh ? elena : yeah , i 'm confused . where 's lola ? are kyle and summer back together ? devon : i have no idea . i have a better question , though -- what is she doing here ? chance : so ... how did it go with phyllis ? abby : mm . great . yeah . she apologize for everything . now we 're best friends . chance : how did it really go ? abby : i want to crush her . i just -- i need to figure out how . adam : i am sorry . chelsea : what are you sorry for ? i 'm having a decent time , are n't you ? adam : no , that 's not what i meant . i meant ... i 'm sorry that you had to give up your shares of the hotel to phyllis . chelsea : you 've already apologized . it 's not necessary . i 'm over it . time to move on . adam : i know . i just -- i just hate that you have to pay for one of my mistakes . chelsea : have n't you had to pay for plenty of mine ? adam : mm . chelsea : besides , i almost think phyllis did me a favor . adam : what do you mean ? chloe : as much as i loved working with chloe and abby , of course , the grand phoenix was never my passion . you know , it was just something fun , new , a challenge . adam : yeah , but it was not like your design business . chelsea : exactly . adam : okay , so ... why do n't you just go back to it ? i mean , there 's definitely nothing standing in your way now . chelsea : i will , when the time is right , but connor needs a lot of extra tlc right now . plus , we lost so much time together , adam . i 'm gon na do everything i can to make up for it . adam : i want that , too . you know , i regret every second that i lost with you and connor . chelsea : well , now you have us both back . adam : it 's not enough . i lost my family , chelsea , and i want to make sure that that never happens again . chelsea : it won't . connor and i are gon na make sure of it . adam : i am going to make sure of that , okay ? chelsea : i 'm not going anywhere , adam . i promise . adam : i want , like , the perfect life , okay ? like , the perfect future that we both deserve . chelsea : nobody has the perfect life . adam : look , i ... i may not be able to protect you from the outside world . i mean , i wo n't be able to protect you from natural disasters or bad movies or traffic jams , but , uh ... our relationship , our family , that i do have say in . chelsea : everything right now , it -- it just feel so ... right . adam : well , i 'm gon na make sure it stays that way . i 'm ready to take the vow o make it official . chelsea : what are you saying ? adam : [ exhales sharply ] chelsea : [ giggles ] oh , my god . adam : chelsea lawson ... will you marry me ? billy : [ scoffs ] [ laughs ] oh , it 's like a shrine to the newman patriarch . are you kidding me ? billy : hey ! i 'm glad you decided to join the party , i 'm happy about that . now we can mock this tribute to victor 's ego together . amanda : i need you to leave with me right now . billy : come on , i just got here . i have n't even seen the royal family yet . amanda : oh , that 's good . that means that we can sneak out without making a scene -- billy : that 's not gon na happen . amanda : billy , you are drunk . billy : i 'm getting there . amanda : if you 're not going to leave to save yourself , can you please just think about me having to run into that family that thinks that i ruined victoria 's relationship ? billy : they have no right to judge you . no right at all . amanda : billy , calm down . billy : after everything they 've done , they have no right to judge . a bastard -- this guy 's a lying bastard . amanda : can we let this go ? billy , billy , billy . billy : what ? hills , you crush them ... adam : uh ... chelsea , if -- if you 're having some doubts , i -- i -- i completely understand . i just -- i wanted -- i just -- i wanted you to know . chelsea : no , i -- no , i 'm not having doubts , adam . i 'm just ... i 'm just trying to take in this moment . the moment we realized we could have it all back again . because , in my heart , i 've always felt like your wife , and ... part of me always still was your wife . so , yeah . yes . yes , adam newman , i will marry you . adam : [ chuckles ] chelsea : [ giggles ] nikki : well , i hope you enjoyed the party . it would be such a shame for you to go to all the trouble of crashing it and not have a good time . phyllis : mm , thank you , nikki . it was definitely worth my while , although , i 'm sure i 'm the last person you want to see . victor : not even you could spoil this occasion for me . phyllis : back at ya . so it was a great evening for both of us . good night . victor : did she upset you ? nikki : who , phyllis ? victor : mm . nikki : no . she 's like an annoying mosquito that just wo n't go away , no matter how many times you try to swat at her . victor : [ laughs ] yes . nikki : listen , um ... i just found out that sharon has cancer . did you know that ? victor : yeah , i knew . nikki : why did n't you tell me ? victor : well , nicholas asked me not to say anything . nikki : oh . hearing something like that just makes me appreciate how very lucky we are , you know ? i mean , after all these years and the difficult roads we 've traveled , our own illnesses . victor : i know . nikki : we 're still here together tonight . victor : i know . nikki : happy and healthy and ... that means something , does n't it ? victor : of course it means something . it means everything , my sweetheart . we take so much for granted , you know ? mm . amanda : what exactly are you trying to accomplish here , billy ? billy : i do n't know . i do n't know . do you have any good ideas ? kyle : oh ! sorry . sorry . billy : oh , come -- victoria : michael told me you were here . billy , i want you to leave right now . billy : uh , no , i 'm gon na stick around and , you know , celebrate the great man . victoria : i 'm warning you , billy . billy : because it 's a hell of a story -- i mean , the honors , the accolades , the accomplishments . of course , they left out all the parts about him lying and cheating and destroying people 's lives . does n't exactly fit the narrative , though , right ? of a generous , kind family . victoria : please . billy : what are you doing ? vick ? vick ! victoria . you okay ? vick ? oh ! vick . victoria : [ gasping ]
the gala honoring victor continue and chance tells abby what happened in vegas and she agrees to keep the secret and she tells phyllis she will never sell her shares of the hotel . sharon tells nikki she has cancer and nikki tells sharon she is sure she can beat her cancer . billy crashes the gala and amanda follows him to make sure he does n't get in trouble . ripley follows amanda and since victoria have similar dresses and hairdos he goes into noah 's dimly lit art display and mistakes victoria for amanda and stabs her in the back . chelsea gladly accepts adam 's marriage proposal .
<s>[INST] [ previously_on ] amanda : i told rey to stop filing the paperwork for your violation of the restraining order . so you have come to your senses . amanda : but you are going to leave town right now and you 're going to forget that i exist . but if you ever come near me again , your life will be over , too . she 's not as strong as she think she is . victor : so welcome one and all to the celebration of 50 years of newman enterprises . nikki : and the man behind it . [ cheers and applause ] noah : we wanted to do something a little more creative than an album . so ... wow . whoa ! oh , whoa ! chance : abby ? there 's something that i need to tell you . something i should 've told you a while ago . abby : hmm . sounds serious . chance : i 'm afraid that it is . abby : damn . i was hoping i had my fill of bad news for one day . okay , let 's hear it . chance : it involves adam ... and phyllis . abby : well , that 's never a good combination . nikki : oh ! victoria : this is for you . victor : sweetheart , you should n't have . victoria : well , we did . victor : you did . well , what do we got in here ? nick : it 's for a live well - lived , and a car well - driven . victor : wow . how did you know ? nick : vick did some research . victor : this is perfect . i absolutely love it . oh , my god . nikki : i 'm sorry , am i the only one missing the significance here ? victor : this is the car . nikki : it is a car , yes . victor : no , it is the car . sweetheart , this is an old jalopy that i drove all the way through the midwest selling industrial soap out of the trunk . nikki : what ? victor : yeah ! nikki : oh ! in all these years , it never occurred to me to ask the make and model . victor : this was my companion for the early years of my life . my goodness . look at this . nikki : oh ... victor : and , you know , in a way , it is ... the car that brought me here . huh . this is so nice . i am surrounded by people i love and the woman i cherish . nikki : oh . victor : i 'm so lucky . i 'm a lucky man . nikki : mm . victor : i ca n't believe this . look at this . where did you find this ? noah : so , you guys are officially back together ? summer : well , we did n't take out an ad , but ... kyle : yes . we are . noah : and your folks reacted how ? summer : um , they think it 's a little too soon ... noah : mm - hmm . yeah . summer : but they also realize that we 're adults and that they have to accept it . noah : just my two cents . i 'm never gon na think he 's good enough for you . but if he makes you happy , i 'm happy for you . rey : you know , there 's a lot i could say right now , but ... out of respect for you , jack , i 'm gon na keep my mouth shut . jack : if it 's any consolation , i 'm not too thrilled about this myself . sharon : but look how happy they are . yes , i know the timing could n't be worse , and i 'm sorry that lola got hurt , but ... they 're in love . they have their whole lives to look forward to . we 've all been where they are now , and would we have behaved any differently ? just let them be happy . life 's too short . jack : phyllis , you 've been kind of quiet . what 's your take on all this ? phyllis : uh , i agree with sharon , 100 % . jack : now , that 's a sentence i never expected to hear out of your mouth . phyllis : no , she 's right . she is right . um ... some people never find their one true love , ever . you know that ? when you find it , you hold on tight because it -- it can be gone in a heartbeat . amanda : hi . billy : hi yourself . amanda : it 's quiet in here . billy : yeah , that 's because half of the town is off kissing victor 's ring , if you know what i mean . amanda : ah . i guess our invitation got lost in the mail . billy : mm . would you have gone ? amanda : under these circumstances , no . the newmans think that i am a homewrecker who conspired with you to break victoria 's heart . billy : we 're quite the pair , are n't we ? you know what really gets me , though ? the hypocrisy of it all . i mean , everybody 's there celebrating victor for living the life on his own terms . no compromises , no apologies . i mean , that 's all i 'm trying to do . just does n't seem fair , does it ? chelsea : you want to go over and join them ? adam : nah , i 've already had one successful moment with pops . i , uh -- better not push it . chelsea : are you sure ? adam : you know , this whole parade has been about victor . but the rest of the night , i am gon na make it about you . additional sponsorship jill : boy , they really are throwing snowballs in hell , are n't they ? jack : you 're looking lovely as ever . jill : [ laughs ] as are you . can you believe that we climbed into our glad rags to honor victor newman ? jack : yeah , the champagne toast did taste a little bitter , but your spirited speech certainly made up for it . jack : well , you got to give the devil his due , you know ? we may have hated the son of a bitch , but you had to admire what he 's built here . jack : yeah . jill : he 's made his mark , has n't he ? jack : yeah , he left some of those marks on two of us , if you 'll recall . jill : oh , come on . we got our licks in . jack : yeah , i guess . frankly , he 's not the only one i 'm thinking of right now . jill : let me guess . you 're as worried about billy as i am . jack : billy has made a series of bad choices lately . jill : [ sighs ] i know , and he 's barely returning my calls these days . jack : yeah , same here . jill : whenever he isolates , it 's not a good thing . jack : well , what are we gon na do about it ? he 's a grown man . he makes his own choices . did he ever really listen to anyone ? jill : periodically , yes , he did . jack : well , apparently now is n't one of those times . jill : [ sighs ] so is it really over between him and victoria ? jack : i think she 's had enough . jill : my god , she 's said that before . jack : it is n't like she is n't trying .. billy keeps changing the rules . jill : i know . jack : and i think she 's just done . jill : i 'm not blaming her , jack . i just adore her . i -- i thought she was perfect for him . jack : yeah , so did i . so did everyone else , except billy , apparently . jill : i think he needs a purpose , you know ? i think he needs something to get him off this treadmill of self - destruction he 's on . jack : if you have any thoughts , now is the time to speak up . i am fresh out of ideas . amanda : how are you feeling ? billy : halfway to no pain at all . amanda : i was talking about your accident . billy : yeah , no , i 'm fine . i 'm fine . just like dr . nate said i was . amanda : okay , well , i am glad you 're okay . billy : thank you . amanda : you have a good evening . billy : amanda . amanda . it seems like you 're a little distant . amanda : i 'm just busy . billy : which would make sense why it kind of feels like you 're trying to end the conversation as soon as possible . and i just ca n't help but think maybe your good friend nate had something to do with that . his disapproval was very clear when he examined me after my accident . amanda : i make my own decisions about who i choose to spend time with . just like you do . billy : i meant no offense . amanda : no offense taken . billy : well , it 's probably a good thing that you steer clear of me , anyway , you know , because maybe everybody 's right . [ exhales sharply ] maybe i am like a ticking time bomb . boom ! paul : you know , this is really quite a piece of work . christine : noah 's got real talent . [ sighs ] well , victor does have the gift of a loving family . paul : [ chuckles ] well , families can be a lot more forgiving than the rest of us . christine : well , i 've pretty much forgiven him . paul : really ? even after the lawsuit that led to your stepping down as district attorney ? christine : yeah , i had to let it go , all right ? more for me than for him because i love my life now . i get to be a private person again , out of the fishbowl , out of the line of fire . let victor have his glory . it means far more to him than it ever would to me . paul : [ chuckles ] abby : so , i 'm sorry , adam saved your life ? chance : my cover was about to be blown . thanks to adam , the guy that was gon na expose me , he ... he suddenly fell off the radar . abby : `` off the radar , `` meaning ... you know what , i do n't need to know . chance : you 're learning . abby : so that 's the information that phyllis used to get chelsea to sell her shares in the grand phoenix . chance : that 's right . only she 's not stopping there . phyllis is coming after your shares , too . abby : she wants the entire hotel ? chance : she even tried to persuade me to persuade you . i , of course , told her no , but ... abby : [ sighs ] chance : i thought you needed to know . abby : that miserable , conniving bitch . phyllis : [ laughs ] chance : abby , no . abby ! abby : i need to make a few things very , very clear . sharon : thank you . nikki : sharon . sharon : nikki . nikki : how are you ? sharon : well , i 'm not pregnant , but that could always change . the night is still young . no , um ... that 's not what i wanted to say . nikki : good , because , frankly , i 'm tired of trading barbs with you . sharon : what i wanted to tell you is ... i have cancer , nikki . breast cancer . amanda : where are you going ? billy : out . amanda : i can see that . out where ? billy : oh , no , you do n't have to worry about that . there wo n't be any accidents . i , uh , got myself a car . amanda : you did n't answer my question . billy : where am i going ? to pay tribute to the man himself . victor : by the way , i had no idea that you had returned to photography . noah : well , it is my first love . i feel like it 's where i have the most to contribute . i know that you wanted me to come back to newman enterprises . i hope you 're not disappointed . victor : we 'll never mention that . i 'm not disappointed at all . i mean , look at us , three generations of newmans . we all have forged our own way . and , by the way , that installation in there ? that moved me a lot . looks fantastic . i love it . you have talent , son . use it wisely , okay ? nick : if i were you , i would take that advice to the bank . noah : i will . victor : that 's right . noah : thank you , grandpa . that means a lot to me . victor : and now that you 've paid homage to your grandfather , i think someone else would like to see you , right ? noah : there is , yeah . victor : okay . you say hello to your mother , okay ? noah : i will . victor : all right . noah : thank you , grandpa . i love you . nick : that was cool , dad . abby : i need to make something very , very clear . phyllis : oh , my gosh , abby , it 's a party , relax . abby : no , you -- you do n't get to tell me to relax . you do n't get to tell me anything . phyllis : oh , my goodness . there is a bee in your bonnet . clearly . abby : let 's talk about how you 're blackmailing chelsea into selling her shares of the hotel . phyllis : i find `` blackmail `` to be a very harsh word . chelsea : it fits you . phyllis : okay , well , why do n't talk about how chelsea put everybody in danger with that hostage crisis ? you 're lucky that i got her out . abby : i want you out . phyllis : okay , listen , love , that 's not going to happen . we 're 50/50 partners right now unless you want to sell me your shares . chelsea : oh , my god . abby : you know , chance told me that you were going to try to strong - arm me into selling my shares . well , that 's not going to happen , love . phyllis : aww , did he tell you that ? interesting . abby : yeah , he did , and he also told me what happened in vegas . adam did n't act alone . yeah , i know . chelsea : you know about that ? abby : do n't worry . i 'll keep it quiet . phyllis : seriously ? you 're going to stand by chance , even though you know that he committed a crime without adam . abby : blackmail is also a crime , phyllis . you should know , you went to prison for it . phyllis : okay , well , this partnership clearly is not going to work out . abby : no , probably not . phyllis : well , why do n't you just put yourself out of misery and sell me your shares of the hotel ? abby : no way in hell . chance : well , i guess i do n't need to ask what this little skirmish is about . chance : i was careless . now phyllis knows everything . adam : well , do n't beat yourself up . you 're not the first person phyllis got the drop on , present company included . chance : adam , she knows what happened . she 's got us on tape talking about it , and you 're telling me you 're not worried ? adam : not particularly , no . chance : well , maybe you should be . she can use this tape as a weapon against us for as long as she wants . do n't think for a minute that she 's going to stop at this hotel . you 've tried so many moisturizers ... adam : let me give you a little insight into phyllis , okay ? she 's tough , she 's smart , & she 's tenacious . i mean , seriously , how many times did she dog us to try to find out information about las vegas ? we got outplayed . she won this round . chance : it almost sounds like you admire her . adam : she 's as cutthroat as they come . chance : and now she 's got enough to put both of our heads on the chopping block . adam : she 's got what she wanted . she owns half the hotel now . she 'll be happy for a while . we 'll be off her radar , okay ? chance : for now . adam : chance . she will overreach , like she always does . she 'll bend the rules . she 'll cross the line , and eventually give us enough dirt to turn around on her , okay ? check . checkmate . chance : i do n't know if you 're right , adam . adam : i 've done this dance with her before , okay ? i 'm pretty confident how it 's going to turn out . chance : it did n't turn out too well for chelsea . adam : losing her shares of the hotel was a blow , okay ? i wo n't deny that . but now she 's free . chance : and now abby gets to be in phyllis 's crosshairs . adam : she does n't have to be . she wants to hang onto the grand albatross , that 's on her , chance . phyllis : i 'm gon na make you a good offer for your shares , more than what they 're worth . how about that ? just to be nice . abby : my answer will still be no . phyllis : mm , your choice . abby : my choice right now is to go get a drink . chelsea : that 's a great idea . abby : why do n't you go mingle with your friends , phyllis , if you can find any here . phyllis : hey . nick : you know ... you have a unique talent for ticking people off . phyllis : oh , well . you know , got to do what i got to do . nick : yeah , but that means you 're stirring up trouble . i thought you 'd gotten past that . phyllis : well , you know , sometimes , a girl has got to put on her crown just so people know what they 're dealing with . nikki : it 's stage ii ? sharon : yes , which is good -- i mean , comparatively speaking . um ... the chemotherapy has been rough , but , so far , i 'm getting through it . nikki : i remember when my sister casey was fighting cancer , the nausea and the fatigue ... sharon : yeah . that comes and goes . i know that the next few months are going to be tough , but nicholas has been great through the whole process . nikki : oh . so he 's known for a while ? sharon : yes . after rey , he was one of the first people i told . nikki : that explains why he 's been visiting you so much lately . sharon : it would be great if you could be there for him and noah and faith . i think sometimes it can be almost as hard on families as it is on the patient . nikki : of course . i 'll do anything i can to help . sharon : thank you . so if i have any more wobbly moments like before , now you 'll why . nikki : sharon . i just want to say , if you can get past all of our battles the last several years , you can beat this , too . sharon : thank you . victoria : is n't it spectacular ? christine : incredibly . you have a very talented nephew . victoria : oh , thank you . you know , i 'm really glad you both are here . i know that things have been tense between you and my father in recent years . paul : oh , you know , we 've all had our disagreements . but , you know what , no one -- no can deny victor 's accomplishments . just take a look around the room . victoria : that 's true . christine : i have n't seen billy around . where is he hiding ? victor : billy abbott will never come to a newman event again . amanda : this is n't a good idea , billy . billy : that 's the story of my life . amanda : if you go to victor 's party , it is not going to end well . billy : well , lucky for me , i have a great attorney to bail me out . amanda : uh , no . no , not this time . not if you go there deliberately looking for trouble . billy : uh ... ding , ding . that 's my car . hey , do n't worry . i promise you , i 'm gon na behave myself . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . rey : what was going on just now with you and nikki ? sharon : um ... i told her about the cancer . rey : why ? sharon : because the longer this goes on , the more i 'm realizing it 's not just about me anymore . this is affecting everyone close to me , and i do n't want to sound them with the additional burden of having to keep my secret . rey : you know , i 'm with you , no matter what . sharon : i do . and i 'm so grateful . noah : mom . how you feeling ? sharon : um , well , to be honest , it 's been a long night . and i was just going to ask rey to take me home . noah : i can take you . uh , if that 's all right with you . rey : you two go on ahead . bye . mwah . sharon : bye . jill : victoria . victoria : hi , jill . jill : how are you ? victoria : i 'm okay , but if it 's all the same to you , i 'd rather not discuss my breakup with billy tonight . jill : no , no , no , no , no . i was n't going to ask you about that . well , okay , maybe i was going to ask you about that . listen to me . i know how terribly frustrating he can be , all right ? there are times that i 've wanted to throttle him . i 've been there . but , honey , he is such a good man . deep down , he is . you know he is . victoria : i do n't really care anymore . jill : you do n't care ? victoria : billy wants more out of life than i have to offer . that 's the beginning , the middle , and the end . so the sooner that we can all accept that , the better . phyllis : to live in the shadow of a legend . calling this iconic man `` dad . `` [ chuckles ] nick : i , uh ... i guess in your mind he 's more infamous than he is iconic . be honest . you want to smash this installation into 1,000 pieces ? phyllis : he raised you . and groomed you to follow his footsteps in business , and you did n't want to , and you disappointed him , and ... and you betrayed him and he forgave you . he never stopped loving you , and vice versa . you 're reflecting on all of that now , right ? nick : [ chuckles ] you know , you are amazing . one minute , you are driving my little sister crazy ... the next , you 're digging deep into my soul and figuring out exactly how i 'm feeling at this moment . phyllis : one of my many talents and gifts . nick : oh , okay . how do you do it ? how do you just turn it on and off like that ? phyllis : what ? you have n't figured me out by now ? nick : i 've been trying for years . phyllis : [ giggles ] nick : every time i think i 've figured it out , you throw me another curve ball . phyllis : what ? seriously ? i guess that 's why every time i make you angry , you ca n't cut ties with me . nick : our daughter may have something to do with it . phyllis : oh . yeah , yeah . that 's not why . i think it drives you crazy to leave things unfinished , and i 'm like a puzzle piece that you just have to figure out where it goes , right ? nick : you , uh , want to give me a hint ? phyllis : i 'm the same woman i 've always been . you see me . you know i am . i am ... deeply flawed ... with quirks ... ... and a heart . nick : you have a huge heart . sometimes i think it 's so big that it scares you , so you do all this crazy stuff to try and protect it . phyllis : stop acting like you 're not the one person in the world who knows me better than anyone else . jill : good to see you . lauren : okay . bye . michael : see you ! jack : you 're leaving so soon ? jill : i 'm not much in a partying mood after my little talk with victoria . jack : was i right ? jill : yeah . you were right . this looks like it really is it for them . jack : here . billy : hey . lauren : hey ! billy : uh ... do you know where victoria is ? michael : i have n't seen her for a while . lauren : you know , i think maybe she 's in the art installation ... michael : oh ! lauren : right through those doors , straight -- billy : thank you . yep . lauren : okay . billy : hey . a double tequila , please ? elena : hey , they 're pretty chummy . devon : yeah , they are , huh ? elena : yeah , i 'm confused . where 's lola ? are kyle and summer back together ? devon : i have no idea . i have a better question , though -- what is she doing here ? chance : so ... how did it go with phyllis ? abby : mm . great . yeah . she apologize for everything . now we 're best friends . chance : how did it really go ? abby : i want to crush her . i just -- i need to figure out how . adam : i am sorry . chelsea : what are you sorry for ? i 'm having a decent time , are n't you ? adam : no , that 's not what i meant . i meant ... i 'm sorry that you had to give up your shares of the hotel to phyllis . chelsea : you 've already apologized . it 's not necessary . i 'm over it . time to move on . adam : i know . i just -- i just hate that you have to pay for one of my mistakes . chelsea : have n't you had to pay for plenty of mine ? adam : mm . chelsea : besides , i almost think phyllis did me a favor . adam : what do you mean ? chloe : as much as i loved working with chloe and abby , of course , the grand phoenix was never my passion . you know , it was just something fun , new , a challenge . adam : yeah , but it was not like your design business . chelsea : exactly . adam : okay , so ... why do n't you just go back to it ? i mean , there 's definitely nothing standing in your way now . chelsea : i will , when the time is right , but connor needs a lot of extra tlc right now . plus , we lost so much time together , adam . i 'm gon na do everything i can to make up for it . adam : i want that , too . you know , i regret every second that i lost with you and connor . chelsea : well , now you have us both back . adam : it 's not enough . i lost my family , chelsea , and i want to make sure that that never happens again . chelsea : it won't . connor and i are gon na make sure of it . adam : i am going to make sure of that , okay ? chelsea : i 'm not going anywhere , adam . i promise . adam : i want , like , the perfect life , okay ? like , the perfect future that we both deserve . chelsea : nobody has the perfect life . adam : look , i ... i may not be able to protect you from the outside world . i mean , i wo n't be able to protect you from natural disasters or bad movies or traffic jams , but , uh ... our relationship , our family , that i do have say in . chelsea : everything right now , it -- it just feel so ... right . adam : well , i 'm gon na make sure it stays that way . i 'm ready to take the vow o make it official . chelsea : what are you saying ? adam : [ exhales sharply ] chelsea : [ giggles ] oh , my god . adam : chelsea lawson ... will you marry me ? billy : [ scoffs ] [ laughs ] oh , it 's like a shrine to the newman patriarch . are you kidding me ? billy : hey ! i 'm glad you decided to join the party , i 'm happy about that . now we can mock this tribute to victor 's ego together . amanda : i need you to leave with me right now . billy : come on , i just got here . i have n't even seen the royal family yet . amanda : oh , that 's good . that means that we can sneak out without making a scene -- billy : that 's not gon na happen . amanda : billy , you are drunk . billy : i 'm getting there . amanda : if you 're not going to leave to save yourself , can you please just think about me having to run into that family that thinks that i ruined victoria 's relationship ? billy : they have no right to judge you . no right at all . amanda : billy , calm down . billy : after everything they 've done , they have no right to judge . a bastard -- this guy 's a lying bastard . amanda : can we let this go ? billy , billy , billy . billy : what ? hills , you crush them ... adam : uh ... chelsea , if -- if you 're having some doubts , i -- i -- i completely understand . i just -- i wanted -- i just -- i wanted you to know . chelsea : no , i -- no , i 'm not having doubts , adam . i 'm just ... i 'm just trying to take in this moment . the moment we realized we could have it all back again . because , in my heart , i 've always felt like your wife , and ... part of me always still was your wife . so , yeah . yes . yes , adam newman , i will marry you . adam : [ chuckles ] chelsea : [ giggles ] nikki : well , i hope you enjoyed the party . it would be such a shame for you to go to all the trouble of crashing it and not have a good time . phyllis : mm , thank you , nikki . it was definitely worth my while , although , i 'm sure i 'm the last person you want to see . victor : not even you could spoil this occasion for me . phyllis : back at ya . so it was a great evening for both of us . good night . victor : did she upset you ? nikki : who , phyllis ? victor : mm . nikki : no . she 's like an annoying mosquito that just wo n't go away , no matter how many times you try to swat at her . victor : [ laughs ] yes . nikki : listen , um ... i just found out that sharon has cancer . did you know that ? victor : yeah , i knew . nikki : why did n't you tell me ? victor : well , nicholas asked me not to say anything . nikki : oh . hearing something like that just makes me appreciate how very lucky we are , you know ? i mean , after all these years and the difficult roads we 've traveled , our own illnesses . victor : i know . nikki : we 're still here together tonight . victor : i know . nikki : happy and healthy and ... that means something , does n't it ? victor : of course it means something . it means everything , my sweetheart . we take so much for granted , you know ? mm . amanda : what exactly are you trying to accomplish here , billy ? billy : i do n't know . i do n't know . do you have any good ideas ?

aj : damn it , carly . you tell me what the hell franco did to our son . carly : i ca n't . aj : what do you mean you ca n't ? you 're his mother , for god 's sake . you tell me what that bastard did to our son ! [ scene_break ] lulu : i did it , dante . i agreed . dante : [ sniffles ] you did ? lulu : stavros said that i had a choice , but what kind of choice was that ? consummate the marriage or lose -- everyone that i love . i did n't know what else to do . dante : so , you -- you slept with him ? [ scene_break ] luke : everything all right ? i can go ? tracy : what he 's trying to say is did you get the lab results back ? is there something wrong with my friend ? dr. rashi : i ca n't be certain yet . tracy : then what good are you ? luke : what she means is what 's the matter ? are the labs not back ? dr. rashi : no , they 're back . i just have n't had sufficient time to look them over . a diagnosis at this point would be premature . tracy : but you have seen the tests . dr. rashi : yes . tracy : so , is luke all right or not ? [ scene_break ] aj : tracy , please . do n't tell elizabeth i slept with carly . tracy : too bad . i think elizabeth needs to know you and carly engaged in some -- steamy hate sex . alexis : nikolas ? ni -- oh .

[ scene_break ] franco : so , none of you bothered to clue in poor aj ? shame on all of you . elizabeth : about what ? franco : oh , come on . really ? elizabeth : be a little less gleeful about it . franco : i ca n't even pretend to have sympathy for this knucklehead . you , on the other hand , michael -- maxie : what the hell is going on ? ! franco : maxie , you might want to plug your ears . this is pretty strong stuff for a mother - to - be . aj : if you did anything to hurt michael , so help me god -- franco : oh , stop it . if there were a god , we would n't even be talking about this , would we ? aj : you tell me right now what the hell you 're keeping from me . no . no ! listen to me . he 's my son , okay ? and even the great sonny corinthos ca n't change that . and if something happened to him , if he was hurt , then i deserve to know . sonny : this has nothing to do with you , aj . you need to drop it . aj : like hell i will . carly , start talking ! let 's go ! michael : aj , just -- aj : now ! sonny : hey ! aj : i 'm sorry , michael . i 'm worried . michael : i know . but this is my story . and i 'll be the one to tell it . franco : good for you , michael . really . you stand up for yourself . i knew you would . carly : you know nothing about my son . nothing . michael : mom . aj : michael , what is it ? w - what is it ? michael : well , i did n't really want to tell you like this , but i was n't given much of a choice . aj : [ sighs ] okay . michael : the first thing you should know is i spent some time in pentonville . aj : you went to prison ? when ? for what ? michael : i was 18 . for killing claudia zacchara . carly : he saved his little sister from a crazy , insane woman . aj : zacchara like -- like the crime family ? michael : claudia snapped . she tried to kidnap josslyn right after she was born . i heard my mom crying , screaming , so i grabbed an ax handle , and when i saw claudia with josslyn , i hit her in the head -- and i killed her . aj : you were trying to save josslyn . i mean , that 's -- it 's justifiable homicide , right ? i mean , could n't you have done anything to keep him out of jail ? ! michael : my mom , dad , and jason did everything that they could . and jason even hide the body , but the cops -- they found out anyway . carly : sonny took the fall for michael . he did , and he was arrested . but then dante found out the truth , and he told the courts . aj : wait , dante ? so , your -- your cop son -- he turned him in , right ? is that it ? sonny : dante thought he was doing his job , aj . aj : [ sighs ] well , wait . none of this makes sense . claudia was stealing a baby . she was stealing your sister . i mean -- i mean , you did n't mean to clock her like that , right ? carly : sonny and i both perjured ourselves . there was no way to prove that michael was innocent . the judge said that we were playing the system , and he sentenced michael to five years for manslaughter . michael : aj , it was n't their fault or dante 's . aj : well , then , whose was it ? yours ? did you do this ? did you put some judge up to throwing the book at him ? michael : no . carly : no . it was much worse . aj : okay , michael , whatever this secret is -- i mean , it ca n't be as bad as you going to prison . my god , michael , what happened to you ? [ scene_break ] luke : yeah , i 'm all right . i feel fine . tracy : yes , and you finished medical school -- when was that ? oh , that 's right . never . he lost consciousness in the middle of a conversation . luke : ah , conversation might be stretching it a bit . she was yapping . i was listening . hey , maybe that 's it . maybe my ears just needed a rest . tracy : i 'd appreciate a diagnosis right about now . dr. rashi : uh , well , mr. spencer 's blood shows decreased albumin levels , raised ast and alp and abnormal bilirubin values . luke : abnormal bilirubin -- is n't that that pianist with 11 fingers ? tracy : we do n't speak medicalese . would you translate ? luke : [ sighs ] i would apologize for her rudeness , doctor , but the insults are just beginning . tracy : we 're waiting . [ scene_break ] dante : that bastard -- he forced you to sleep with him ? it 's okay . you can tell me , lulu . i can take it , i promise you . stavros : you might actually surprise yourself and enjoy this . i know i will . i promise to be gentle . come , my dear . it is our wedding night . lulu : no . stavros : no , what ? lulu : i 'm not going anywhere or enjoying anything with you . you 're disgusting ! stavros : you do n't mean that . lulu : yeah , i do . stavros : do you forget the consequences of denying me ? surely you want to keep your loved ones safe . lulu : yeah , of course , i do . my family is my world , but they would not want me to throw away my life for theirs . they love me too much , and i am going to honor that love . stavros : by having them killed ? lulu : by doing this . i 'm through with this so - called marriage . my husband is dante falconeri . he gave me these rings on the day i became his wife . i love him . and nothing you do can change that . lulu : i could n't do it . and by not sleeping with stavros , i put all of your lives at risk -- especially my brother 's . [ scene_break ] michael : mom , listen -- carly : you do n't have to do this . you do n't -- not here , not now , not in front of everybody . michael : i 'm -- i 'm not ashamed . carly : are you sure ? michael : yeah . he does n't get to have control anymore . carly : i love you . michael : i love you , too . well , uh , this is what you wanted , right ? so , let 's do it . i 'm ready . [ sighs ] look , uh -- most of you already know what i 'm gon na say , but for those of you who do n't , i 'm okay . it took a while , but i 've -- i 've moved on . [ sighs ] when i was in prison , somebody -- assaulted me . aj : what , you mean , like , they pulled out a knife or they came after you -- michael : no , no . i was raped . one ... aj : no . michael : his name was carter . he was another inmate . and , at first , he was , uh -- protecting me from a guard who was giving me a hard time . aj : about what ? michael : my dad .

's latest news . reed : grandpa getting arrested for the murder of my dad ? billy : yeah . reed : well , my grandma kept repeating over and over that he was innocent . obviously , they found some serious dirt to charge his highness , victor newman . billy : well , we do n't know if that 's true yet . reed : you 're starting to sound like my mom . billy : is that why you 're avoiding her ? you do n't want to listen to her defend victor ? reed : look , i get that she 's loyal to her dad . ca n't i be that way with mine ? i need to know what happened to him . i ca n't just let him disappear off the face of the planet like nobody cared . and i 'm not going to accept that grandpa ca n't be guilty , no matter how much mom and grandma wish it were true . billy : do you think he 's guilty ? reed : i do n't know . i hope he 's not . but him staying out of the country , dodging the police -- i mean , this looks really bad . would n't have come back at all except -- billy : except you brought him out of hiding . reed : me ? billy : he came back because of nikki 's hit - and - run accident . and you 're the one that hit her ... and ran . nikki : i want to speak to rey rosales . victoria : mom , i really do n't think that 's wise . nikki : he arrested your father with no evidence . nick : well , except for what they found at the ranch in the stables . nikki : which was obviously planted , son ! somebody started that fire to lead the police to those phony clues . i do n't know why rosales is harassing your father when he could be out looking for the real arsonist or the person who hit me and left me by the side of the road to die . i mean , we know that your father is innocent , and we 're gon na do nothing ? nick : no . i 'm gon na go see dad and do whatever i can . nikki : even with the way you feel about him ? nick : it 's the way i feel about you . that 's what 's important . i will help dad if you promise me you will stay calm and just get well . nikki : i promise . keep me updated , okay ? nick : will do . i love you . nikki : i love you . sweetheart , go . go with your brother , please . victoria : no , mom . i want to stay and talk to you about something . nikki : what could be more urgent than this ? nothing . victoria : i think that nick 's offer to help dad is very sincere . nikki : and , yes , it could lead them to a new beginning . but knowing the strain that your father is under and the bad blood between him and nicholas , i mean , it could turn in to a battle of egos and tempers , and that is why it 's important that you be there . all right ? whatever you want to talk to me about can wait . ( rooster morning call ) additional sponsorship jill : you 're actually trying to tell me that you think you 're a chip off the old colin block ? seriously . what is that about ? cane : i 've been a bit of a disappointment in myself lately . that 's all . jill : in what way ? cane : you 're nothing without her . you know what they say . i know it 's a cliché , but damn if it is n't true . you know , when lily was here , she , uh -- she did so much for this family that i did n't appreciate , and now she 's gone . i 'm just falling short in so many areas , you know ? i mean , the project i told you about -- we 're about two months behind on that , and that 's cost us millions , and the kids see how stressed out i am , so they do n't come to me with their problems until they 're in crisis mode . and as far as being a husband goes -- [ sighs ] jill : what about that ? cane : lily deserves better . let 's just leave it at that , okay ? billy : [ sighs ] when it looked like your grandmother was n't gon na make it ... i did n't know that you thought that you might be responsible . that must have been brutal for you . reed : i 've never felt so bad about anything in my life . billy : i get it . i 've been there . it ... eats you up from the inside out . [ sighs ] when delia died ... reed : billy ... you did n't kill your daughter . uncle adam was the one who hit her , and -- and he hit her by accident . billy : yeah , but i was just as guilty . i 'm the one that left her in the car with her dog , alone , while i went to go get ... ice cream . and no one 's ever gon na convince me otherwise . reed , your grandmother 's still alive ... so you get to learn from this . you get to ... heal ... and move on with your life . reed : i still feel so bad and so ashamed for -- for what i did to grandma but also my mom . i mean ... that 's why i ca n't stand to be around her right now . billy : talk to her about it . the same loyalty she has for your grandfather , she has double for you . reed : maybe we do n't deserve it . billy : there 's nothing that you 're ever gon na do that would make your mom turn her back on you . ever . and as far as your grandfather , let 's just wait till all the facts come out ... before we start judging , okay ? reed : that makes sense . victoria : michael 's heard nothing . why would dad not even contact his lawyer ? nick : maybe refusing to play the game is a stronger position than playing it and possibly losing . victoria : do you still doubt his innocence ? nick : after recent evidence , dad looks even more guilty . i told him so myself . victoria : do you know what your suspicions are doing to our dad ? nick : it 's not my job to figure out what happened to j.t . i am here , for mom 's sake , to help dad with his legal case . that is all . [ door opens ] victoria : dad . victor : hi , sweetheart . i assure you this is nothing but a brief inconvenience . nick : well , if that 's the case , then tell us what we can do to get you out of here . victor : since when is that a concern of yours ? the day after chemo might mean a trip back to victoria : you came as soon as you could . victor : yeah . obviously not fast enough to get your mother out of danger before the cops caught on . but i 'm glad i was able to spend some time with her when she needed me . victoria : i want you by her side again . let me call michael . victor : that 's unnecessary . christine williams does n't have enough to convict me . she knows it . so i 'm not taking this seriously . victoria : what about the effect the arrest is having on newman enterprises ? victor : we repaired that damage once the charges have been dropped . nick : if the charges are dropped . dad , you got to be realistic . victor : the reality , son , is that christine williams has only circumstantial evidence . nick : even if that 's the case , christine has won circumstantial cases before . she can easily help the jury connect the dots . victor : and what dots are there to connect ? nick : dad , you threatened j.t . on live television . they found his bloody shirt on your ranch with your gun . you eluded the police out of the country , on the run for months . victor : i was doing business overseas . nick : while avoiding questioning and arrest . this is how it looks for you . i 'm sorry . it looks bad . we need to find a way to counter the narrative . victor : `` we `` ? you mean you and i are on the same team ? is that it ? that sounds about as credible as this fictional circumstantial evidence . victoria : no . it 's true . this is our family pulling together in a time of emergency , just like you raised us to be . victor : our family pulling together ? has your brother told you that he suspects that i may have killed j.t . hellstrom ? nick : just because i asked the question does n't necessarily mean i believe it . victor : it 's a fair question , son . the fact that you do n't necessarily believe it is really warming my heart . that 's what a father likes to hear . do you share your brother 's belief that i 'm a murderer ? victoria : not one bit . victor : thank you for that . and thank you for looking after your mother and after newman enterprises while i 'm away . it means a lot to me . it 's a relief to have you around , you know . victoria : yes . you can count on me . victor : i know . nick : [ sighs ] victor : okay . would you mind ? uh , i need to have a word with your brother alone . victoria : i 'll see you soon . victor : bye . [ breathes deeply ] total honesty . nick : what do you want to know ? victor : did you kill j.t . hellstrom ? ( vo ) for a nasty cold , nick : you ca n't seriously be asking me that . victor : not only is the question serious , it 's fair . i mean , you had as much of a motive to get rid of j.t . hellstrom as anyone after you learned what he had done to your sister . and then ... genius ... you tried to pin the whole thing on me ... your father , whom you despise . nick : that 's all you got . victor : you impersonated j.t . hellstrom . you hacked into the newman system . were n't you worried that j.t . might suddenly come upon you and expose what you were doing ? you were n't worried about that , were you ... because you already knew he was dead ? nick : i did n't know where he was . victor : you could have planted the bloody shirt and the gun in the stables and then burned the damn thing down . no one would have suspected you . nick : but i did n't do that , and you know it , because i would never , ever put mom through that . victor : i think you mean that . and for your mother 's sake ... i want you to make me a promise . jill : come on . you 're not telling me anything . there must be something specific you did to let lily down . cane : it 's multiple things , really . jill : such as ? cane : i do n't know . they seem small . but when you 're in prison a couple hundred miles from home , all you really have are the small things , right ? jill : like ? cane : i , uh [ sighs ] i only went to visit her once during the kids ' christmas break . i missed phone calls , and i have n't really been , you know , very present in the kids ' lives . jill : okay . i 've heard enough . cane : well , you wanted examples , did n't you ? jill : yeah , i 've got some examples . if i sat down with lily right this minute and i asked her to rate as a husband and father , all i would hear would be raves . i mean , she knows how fortunate she is to have you here so she has something to come back to after the nightmare is over . honey , of course you 've made mistakes . everybody makes mistakes . but lily 's not gon na remember those . neither are the kids . you know what they 'll remember ? that you always stepped up and you loved them and you did your absolute best , okay ? and , uh , i 'm gon na let you in on a little more wisdom . these children of yours , these bright , gorgeous , exceptional children -- they 're gon na make mistakes , too . maybe only a few and maybe a whole hell of a lot . how do you want them to handle those , hmm ? do you want them to beat themselves up over them and just stop trying , or do you want them to learn from their screw - ups and forgive themselves and do better next time ? cane : of course choice `` b. `` jill : well , then , you damn well need to set a better example . got it ? i do n't hear you . cane : i 've got it . and now i know exactly what i have to do next . victoria : billy ! billy : hey ! i 'm in the kitchen ! i did n't hear you come in . victoria : oh . that 's , um -- that 's a new look for you . billy : yeah . i 'm just , uh , making dinner for you and the kids . it 's all done . just have to plate it . victoria : thank you . i was just upstairs . reed 's not here . billy : he went for a jog . he 's got a lot of tension to burn off . but i have to say that he 's handling it better than i would have expected . victoria : i 'm not judging him . i understand the pressure that he 's under . i just wish he 'd talk to me . billy : i do n't want to get ahead of myself , but i told him to do so . victoria : thank you ... and for making this food for us and ... for everything that you 've done since mom 's accident . i do n't know how would have survived without you . billy : well , that 's debatable . victoria : [ chuckles ] billy : to be honest , it 's been really nice spending time with you and the kids . that 's actually why i wanted to wait around and -- and talk to you . i do n't want you to think that there 's an ulterior motive for me being here . victoria : what ? why would i ? billy : well , last night , we ... we kissed ... and we hugged , and i just do n't want you to think that ... victoria : no . billy : ... i was expecting , you know , more . victoria : i know . i mean , it kind of took both of us by surprise . well , we can just forget about it . it 's not a big deal . billy : yeah . see , that 's the thing -- i do n't really want to forget about it , because it kind of feels like something 's happening between us . i do n't know . am i nuts ? so , i 'm not nuts . that 's a relief . victoria : before we read too much into this , i think we should be honest . once again , our timing is just -- it 's horrible . billy : hmm . inconvenient , maybe not ideal , but horrible ? that 's a little , uh -- little aggressive . victoria : you just got out of a very intense relationship , and i am dealing with major , massive crises and relying completely on you to get me through it ... so maybe these feelings are just simple ... billy : no , please continue . i want to hear about these feelings . victoria : well , maybe you should take a look at your own and see what 's triggering them . i mean , it 's the holidays . we 're spending so much time with the family . i know that that can make you feel nostalgic and comforting . billy : okay . this is not about me being on the rebound or needing comfort . i would never use you like that . victoria : i know . i know . not on purpose . billy : not ever . victoria : but we also have the kids to consider -- you know , johnny and katie . we would n't want to get them confused or get their hopes up prematurely . billy : okay . yeah . that 's a very good point . victoria : right . yes . billy : so , maybe we should just , uh , take some time and ... think about it and -- and , uh ... get together later , maybe . victoria : i think that sounds very reasonable . billy : okay . well , uh ... goodbye ... for now . victoria : goodbye . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . cane : uh , yeah , i probablyrobably should have called first . victoria : no , you 're fine . the kids are out , so i have a few minutes -- unless this is about the kiss , in which case i really -- cane : kiss ? um , what kiss ? there ... was no kiss . victoria : [ chuckles ] cane : [ chuckles ] victoria : sit down . cane : sure . um , actually , i came over to talk to you about the hit - and - run , 'cause yesterday when i went home , i spoke to charlie about it , and , uh , he 's -- he 's gutted . victoria : i know . reed is feeling the same way . he ca n't even look at me now that i know . cane : yeah . so , you know , i 've been thinking that maybe it 's best for their peace of mind if they , uh -- if they do n't keep it a secret and they -- you know , they confess . victoria : that 's -- that 's a huge decision . i mean , have you really considered the consequences ? cane : it 's just that i feel like the psychological damage of concealing it could be worse . victoria : worse than a felony conviction ? cane : no , i 'm actually talking about going to see nikki and telling her , you know , 'cause she 's the victim , and , you know , i think that she has a right to know . victoria : i agree . i almost told her myself this morning . cane : but you know you should n't have to do that because , you know , they 're old enough . it 's their responsibility , and ... you know , they can tell her , and she can impose whatever action she thinks is right . victoria : yes , i agree . maybe it will help them start to forgive themselves . cane : yeah , that 's what i 'm thinking , too , um ... you know , 'cause i think it would be good for charlie if -- you know , if he felt like he had a way that he could make it right , you know , and probably would for reed , as well , you know ? [ door unlocks , opens ] victoria : hey , reed ! reed : hi . mr. ashby . wh - what 's going on ? victoria : go upstairs , shower , and change . we 're going to see your grandmother . jill : mm . billy : ah , it 's good to see you . i 'm sorry to hear about colin . jill : mm . billy : it sucks that you had to deal with that over the holidays . why did n't you call me ? jill : no . i 'm so good . i 'm so good . i 'm better than ever . you know what ? i need to take a step back and look to the future . new year , new beginnings . billy : yeah . i 'm thinking along the same lines . jill : so ... how 's work with your ex - paramour as your boss ? billy : work is surprisingly cool . jill : hmm . billy : i 'm sure you 've heard about our exclusive with rebekah barlow . jill : oh , yeah . i could n't miss that . billy : that was my idea . jill : [ chuckles ] billy : uh , no , phyllis and i worked on it together , but she really brought it home in the end . jill : yeah . billy : look , i knew that if i was gon na stay at the company , i had to work through our personal differences , and i 'm happy to say that we have . and i 'm also happy to say that we are still a dynamic team ... workwise . jill : mm - hmm . well ... your feelings are my only concern . i just hope you know what you 're getting into . billy : i 'm not gon na get hurt , mom . my eyes are wide open . and phyllis has moved on with nick , so it is what it is . jill : she what ? billy : you heard me . it happened very quickly , but apparently she 's committed to both nick and his children , so whatever . jill : oh , honey . oh , i 'm so sorry . this must be painful for you . ohh ! billy : as if . jill : [ clears throat ] justoincidentally , have you seen much of victoria over the hol -- billy : not as much as you would like . jill : [ chuckles ] i have no clue what you 're talking about . billy : [ chuckles ] jill : [ laugs ] victor : someone has gone to great lengths ... to make sure that i 'm locked up . nick : why -- so they can target newman enterprises ? victor : it 's more personal than that . it means your mother 's still in jeopardy . nick : well , i 'm gon na look out for her . victor : you promise me that ? you 're the one who has to go to the ranch and find out who the hell set the place ablaze and find out who planted that phony evidence for the cops . that means your mother 's fate is in your hands , son . nick : do n't worry . i 'm on it . victor : can i depend on you ? nikki : cane . cane : hey . nikki : well , what a nice surprise . come in . come in . cane : thank you . uh , i 'm glad to hear you 're feeling better . nikki : thank you . victoria : hi . nikki : oh , hi , sweetheart . victoria : i 'm here with cane and , uh , two other people who are very anxious to see you . reed : hi , grandma . nikki : hey . hi , darling . charlie : nice to see you again , mrs . newman . how are you feeling ? nikki : well , much better . thank you , charlie . i - i love that you came to visit , but , um ... what 's all this about ? reed : charlie and i have something to tell you . tech : at safelite autoglass nikki : why do n't you start at the beginning ? charlie : one night before christmas , reed came over to hang out , and his friends were throwing a party . he said that we should go . he was just trying to cheer me up 'cause my girlfriend had moved away . he offered to drive 'cause i had been drinking that night , so i said , `` let 's go . `` but we never made it . on the way , it was just really snowy , and ... we could n't see anything . we hit something . i 'm really sorry . i - i had no idea it was you or that you were hurt . we did n't find out until later , when reed told me you were here . nikki : you had committed a hit - and - run ? you ca n't drive . your license was suspended . reed : i know . i know , and i hate myself for offering and for mentioning that stupid party ... and for not going back to see what we 'd hit . i knew that if we 'd gone back , i would have been in so much trouble for my license and for damaging mr . ashby 's car . if i 'd have known it was a person and that it was you ... i i would have called for help , and i would have stayed with you instead of going back to charlie 's house and pretending like nothing ever happened . when i found out what i had done and ... if you 'd have died , it would have been all my fault . i ... victoria : i only learned what happened a few days ago . cane : yeah , same here . i , uh -- i knew there wasi ought it was that he missed his mom or his girlfriend , but it was the guilt inside . it was -- it was tearing him up the same way it was for reed because they both felt like murderers . reed : we almost were . i still have n't stopped feeling sick about it . nikki : reed ... i want you to look me in the eye . tell me the truth . had you been drinking ? reed : no , grandma , not -- not a single drop . i promise . charlie : that 's why he offered to drive -- 'cause i was buzzed . if i would have just called a car , none of this would have happened . reed : god . i ca n't believe we 're such idiots . i 'm so , so sorry , grandma , not that that makes up for any of this . cane : now they 're ready to accept whatever consequences you deem appropriate . nikki : that i do ? cane : yes . victoria : that 's the arrangement that we agreed to . nikki : well , all right . um ... before we get to that , uh ... ... i have my own confession i need to make ... to both of you . and it is not easy , but you two have been ... so brave today . and i need to be , too . the night of the accident ... i had been at the jabot holiday party ... drinking , and i do n't mean just one glass of champagne . reed : but -- but , grandma , you do n't drink . nikki : h - honey ... no . i - i try not to ever , but ... that night and the few days before that , i had been very upset about something , and ... i gave myself permission . i thought that i deserved to feel better . but then , as always , the opposite happened . the more upset i was , the more i drank . [ sighs ] i just was so out of it , i did n't know what the hell i was doing . and that 's why i stepped off the curb without looking , and that 's why you two could not have prevented this accident , no matter how safe you may have been driving . so stop blaming yourselves . charlie : we were in a car , and you were on foot . we 're still responsible . nikki : it does n't excuse me being out of control . it 's not your fault . reed : we still should have gone back to see what we 'd hit . nikki : and i should have known better . i should have maintained my sobriety and never put you in that position in the first place . i apologize from the bottom of my heart . i hope you can forgive me . charlie : we should be the ones asking for your forgiveness . nikki : you 've already got it . reed : [ crying ] nikki : okay . now , back to those consequences ... one of the best things about being a grandmother is i can leave things like that other people . so ... mom , dad ... you do whatever you feel is right , with one condition -- this is a family matter . it 's private . please do n't involve the police . cane : it 's a deal . victoria : cane , my mom looks a little tired , but i need to talk to her first . do you think you can drop reed off at home ? cane : yeah , of course . um , nikki , thank you so much for your compassion and your kindness . charlie : um , i hope you get well soon . nikki : thank you . cane : okay . come on . let 's go . nikki : i love you , honey . reed : [ speaks indistinctly ] nikki : oh . victoria : hey , you . not so fast . i am so proud of you . reed : i 'm glad . i thought you two were gon na hate me for the rest of my life . victoria : no , not a chance . reed : [ crying ] jill : ohhh . billy : [ chuckles ] jill : that was adorable . johnny the snowman ? he must have stolen the whole christmas pageant . billy : he pretty much did . he was great . jill : oh , i wish i could have been there with you ! billy : well , i 'm sure i could talk to him -- maybe get an encore performance . jill : do n't you tease me . do you think he would do that ? billy : he was anxious to give victoria one . jill : was that when you were all snowed in together ? billy : no , that was before . the snow - in was , uh , christmas day . jill : do you see ? the weather even conspired to have you all together as a family . billy : god . jill : the kids must have loved it , huh ? billy : yeah . yeah , so did i . jill : honey ... billy : hmm ? jill : ... i have n't seen you look this happy in years . i mean it -- in years . billy : you mean pre - phyllis ? jill : well , i did n't say that -- you did . billy : okay . you do n't have to act all coy , right ? jill : [ chuckles ] billy : i know you got a bumper sticker on your car that reads , `` team victoria . `` jill : do n't be so ridiculous . if i did have one , it would say , `` team billy and victoria , `` okay ? [ sighs ] you are john abbott 's son . darling , being a family man is embedded in your dna . billy : i tried the domestic tranquility more than once . what makes you think it would n't end in profanity and tears this time ? jill : i do n't know . several things . you 're addressing your gambling issues now . you 're done with phyllis . phyllis is with nick , and victoria has never stopped loving you . and you are too smart to let her get away again . at least i hope you are . charlie : it 's the first time i have n't felt sick since the accident . it was weird how i could actually feel all that guilt bottled up , making me feel nauseated day and night . if this is how mom felt , then ... i understand why she confessed . i would n't want her to know this , but [ clears throat ] i have actually been really mad at her for ... putting herself and all of us through such an unfair nightmare , you know ? cane : i had a hard time accepting it , but your mom had to confess . otherwise , she could n't live with herself . charlie : well , now i get it , too . if mrs . newman would have told us to go to the police , then i would have . cane : we 're just , uh , grateful that it did n't have to come to that , right ? uh , you know , it 's good that she had the guts to tell everybody what was going on , um , but listen -- you and i have to discuss these consequences . charlie : like mrs . newman said ... whatever you think is best . cane : you can keep your driver 's license , but you ca n't use it for the rest of the school year . charlie : yeah , i understand . cane : and i want to know everywhere you 're going . charlie : of course , and i wo n't stay out late . cane : you 're gon na have a strict curfew , and if you break it once -- charlie : i won't . cane : all right . charlie : i won't . promise . cane : so , we 're clear on this , right ? charlie : yeah . victoria : thank you for being so incredible with the boys . nikki : i meant every word . victoria : i know , and that 's why reed is not off the hook . once he gets his license back , i am gon na extend his driving ban . nikki : for how long ? victoria : a year . nikki : well , you do whatever you feel is best . victoria : you know they were terrified to confess the truth to you , even though it was tearing them up inside . nikki : i know . you could see it on their faces how upset they were . my heart went out to them , and i 'm sure yours did , too . and you and i know the toll that keeping a horrible secret can take . victoria : you know , it 's been almost nine months since j.t . died . and we thought that we could just lock it away somewhere deep in our brains and go on with our lives . nikki : [ sighs ] you just ca n't seal up something this toxic . it starts to poison everything , and ... look what it 's done to you -- ptsd . it 's reduced me to binge - drinking . victoria : and dad . what about him ? he 's sitting in a jail cell , facing the worst possible charges for something that he did n't do . nikki : i can not let this destroy us or the people we love any longer . victoria : mom . nikki : this has to end , and there 's only one way . i have to tell the police . i have to tell them i 'm the one that killed j.t .
victoria and nick are at the hospital and are happy at their mother 's progress . nikki learns of victor 's arrest and argues about rey 's harassment of victor . nick promises he is going to get answers and is headed to the police station with victoria following . once there , nick and victoria meet with victor . victor tells them christine does n't have enough to go on and he expects to be released . once alone with just nick , victor asks him if he killed jt and reminds him that he impersonated jt . he then mentions the fire to which nick tells him he would never have put his mother in danger . victor believes him and wants him to find out who set the fire . at cane 's house , cane tells jill how awful the holidays were without lily . jill tells him that she and colin are on a break . jill tells cane that lily got the whole package with him but cane tells her lily deserves better than him . she disagrees and tells him that he needs to set a good example for charlie and maddie .
<s>[INST] [ previously_on ] victoria : reed was driving the car that hit my mother . charlie ashby had been drinking . he wanted to drive , but he could n't , so reed drove for him , and they did n't say anything until now . devon : yeah , but you been dealing with a lot , man . your wife just spent the holidays behind bars . cane : yeah . the thing is when i go and see her , it 's like she 's not the same person anymore . she just looks at me like i do n't get it . i 'm not living the same life she is . i do n't see what she sees . victoria : it was a lot -- a lot of stress and a lot of pressure -- and , at some point , it was bound to explode , which it did . and i reacted by doing something stupid , reckless , and impulsive . rey : you do understand you have the right to an attorney ? victor : not the first time i 've been arrested , you know . christine : so , you came out of a coma and immediately formulated a plan to leave the country ? nikki : i begged victor to do this for me . victoria : i think her color seems to be improved , and her energy level 's up . nick : yeah . she looks better than she should . nikki : i 'm right here , guys . i feel better because i know that your father is safe and sound . victoria : nick and i know the feeling . can you imagine us rushing in here to find your bed empty ? nikki : [ sighs ] i 'm so sorry i put you through that . nick : it was dad 's idea to yank you out of the hospital . nikki : he kept it secret so that neither of you could be found liable by the police . nick : and we could n't do anything to stop him . victoria : i mean , can you blame us ? taking you off to god knows where -- it was just way too risky . nikki : well , nate came to take care of me , and i hope that he wo n't wind up being the scapegoat in this whole thing . i need to call him . nick : no , mom . mom , take it easy , okay ? you already told christine that it was your idea to leave the hospital , so she 's not pressing charges against nate or me . victoria : or dad . nikki : oh ! thank goodness . so , where is your father ? what ? what is it ? tell me . victoria : mom ... dad has been arrested for j.t . 's murder . jill : i wanted to surprise you , so i stopped by the office on my way back from the airport , and they told me that you were n't in this week . cane : yeah . well , there 's fewer interruptions here , and i kind of have to tend to the pile - up from the christmas break . jill : oh , sweetie , the holidays must have been a kick in the teeth without lily , huh ? cane : yeah , they were . anyway , what -- what did you guys -- where did you guys spend the holiday season ? let me guess -- bondi ? no , noosa ? jill : actually , both . colin stayed with people on the sunshine coast , and i stayed in sydney . cane : okay . jill : yeah . we 're taking a break from marriage . cane : [ sighs heavily ] i ca n't believe he was that stupid to let you go . jill : [ chuckles ] that 's very sweet of you to say -- about me , anyway -- but it was n't like that . it 's really nobody 's fault . you know , colin is the same guy i married . he 's handsome and witty and fun - loving , and , oh , my god , he 's charming as hell . but he can be very infuriating at times . and i 'm coming in to the next phase of my life , and the next man i 'm gon na be with is ... well , will be reliable , rock - solid , somebody i can lean on emotionally , you know ? cane : which is n't exactly my dad 's wheelhouse . jill : [ chuckles ] darling , i know . i 'm the one who paid for his boat . when it comes to picking mr . right , though , not everybody can be as fortunate as lily . she got the full package with you . what ? what is it ? cane : i do n't know . i do n't know . maybe i 'm just more like my dad than i care to admit . jill : [ laughing ] oh , my god . i love you , cane . but that is the most ridiculous thing i 've ever heard you say . reed : mom 's at the hospital . johnny and katie are skating with hannah . um , you can hang out , but i 'm gon na go for a run . billy : before you take off , you got a second to talk ? reed : about what ? billy : g.c . 's latest news . reed : grandpa getting arrested for the murder of my dad ? billy : yeah . reed : well , my grandma kept repeating over and over that he was innocent . obviously , they found some serious dirt to charge his highness , victor newman . billy : well , we do n't know if that 's true yet . reed : you 're starting to sound like my mom . billy : is that why you 're avoiding her ? you do n't want to listen to her defend victor ? reed : look , i get that she 's loyal to her dad . ca n't i be that way with mine ? i need to know what happened to him . i ca n't just let him disappear off the face of the planet like nobody cared . and i 'm not going to accept that grandpa ca n't be guilty , no matter how much mom and grandma wish it were true . billy : do you think he 's guilty ? reed : i do n't know . i hope he 's not . but him staying out of the country , dodging the police -- i mean , this looks really bad . would n't have come back at all except -- billy : except you brought him out of hiding . reed : me ? billy : he came back because of nikki 's hit - and - run accident . and you 're the one that hit her ... and ran . nikki : i want to speak to rey rosales . victoria : mom , i really do n't think that 's wise . nikki : he arrested your father with no evidence . nick : well , except for what they found at the ranch in the stables . nikki : which was obviously planted , son ! somebody started that fire to lead the police to those phony clues . i do n't know why rosales is harassing your father when he could be out looking for the real arsonist or the person who hit me and left me by the side of the road to die . i mean , we know that your father is innocent , and we 're gon na do nothing ? nick : no . i 'm gon na go see dad and do whatever i can . nikki : even with the way you feel about him ? nick : it 's the way i feel about you . that 's what 's important . i will help dad if you promise me you will stay calm and just get well . nikki : i promise . keep me updated , okay ? nick : will do . i love you . nikki : i love you . sweetheart , go . go with your brother , please . victoria : no , mom . i want to stay and talk to you about something . nikki : what could be more urgent than this ? nothing . victoria : i think that nick 's offer to help dad is very sincere . nikki : and , yes , it could lead them to a new beginning . but knowing the strain that your father is under and the bad blood between him and nicholas , i mean , it could turn in to a battle of egos and tempers , and that is why it 's important that you be there . all right ? whatever you want to talk to me about can wait . ( rooster morning call ) additional sponsorship jill : you 're actually trying to tell me that you think you 're a chip off the old colin block ? seriously . what is that about ? cane : i 've been a bit of a disappointment in myself lately . that 's all . jill : in what way ? cane : you 're nothing without her . you know what they say . i know it 's a cliché , but damn if it is n't true . you know , when lily was here , she , uh -- she did so much for this family that i did n't appreciate , and now she 's gone . i 'm just falling short in so many areas , you know ? i mean , the project i told you about -- we 're about two months behind on that , and that 's cost us millions , and the kids see how stressed out i am , so they do n't come to me with their problems until they 're in crisis mode . and as far as being a husband goes -- [ sighs ] jill : what about that ? cane : lily deserves better . let 's just leave it at that , okay ? billy : [ sighs ] when it looked like your grandmother was n't gon na make it ... i did n't know that you thought that you might be responsible . that must have been brutal for you . reed : i 've never felt so bad about anything in my life . billy : i get it . i 've been there . it ... eats you up from the inside out . [ sighs ] when delia died ... reed : billy ... you did n't kill your daughter . uncle adam was the one who hit her , and -- and he hit her by accident . billy : yeah , but i was just as guilty . i 'm the one that left her in the car with her dog , alone , while i went to go get ... ice cream . and no one 's ever gon na convince me otherwise . reed , your grandmother 's still alive ... so you get to learn from this . you get to ... heal ... and move on with your life . reed : i still feel so bad and so ashamed for -- for what i did to grandma but also my mom . i mean ... that 's why i ca n't stand to be around her right now . billy : talk to her about it . the same loyalty she has for your grandfather , she has double for you . reed : maybe we do n't deserve it . billy : there 's nothing that you 're ever gon na do that would make your mom turn her back on you . ever . and as far as your grandfather , let 's just wait till all the facts come out ... before we start judging , okay ? reed : that makes sense . victoria : michael 's heard nothing . why would dad not even contact his lawyer ? nick : maybe refusing to play the game is a stronger position than playing it and possibly losing . victoria : do you still doubt his innocence ? nick : after recent evidence , dad looks even more guilty . i told him so myself . victoria : do you know what your suspicions are doing to our dad ? nick : it 's not my job to figure out what happened to j.t . i am here , for mom 's sake , to help dad with his legal case . that is all . [ door opens ] victoria : dad . victor : hi , sweetheart . i assure you this is nothing but a brief inconvenience . nick : well , if that 's the case , then tell us what we can do to get you out of here . victor : since when is that a concern of yours ? the day after chemo might mean a trip back to victoria : you came as soon as you could . victor : yeah . obviously not fast enough to get your mother out of danger before the cops caught on . but i 'm glad i was able to spend some time with her when she needed me . victoria : i want you by her side again . let me call michael . victor : that 's unnecessary . christine williams does n't have enough to convict me . she knows it . so i 'm not taking this seriously . victoria : what about the effect the arrest is having on newman enterprises ? victor : we repaired that damage once the charges have been dropped . nick : if the charges are dropped . dad , you got to be realistic . victor : the reality , son , is that christine williams has only circumstantial evidence . nick : even if that 's the case , christine has won circumstantial cases before . she can easily help the jury connect the dots . victor : and what dots are there to connect ? nick : dad , you threatened j.t . on live television . they found his bloody shirt on your ranch with your gun . you eluded the police out of the country , on the run for months . victor : i was doing business overseas . nick : while avoiding questioning and arrest . this is how it looks for you . i 'm sorry . it looks bad . we need to find a way to counter the narrative . victor : `` we `` ? you mean you and i are on the same team ? is that it ? that sounds about as credible as this fictional circumstantial evidence . victoria : no . it 's true . this is our family pulling together in a time of emergency , just like you raised us to be . victor : our family pulling together ? has your brother told you that he suspects that i may have killed j.t . hellstrom ? nick : just because i asked the question does n't necessarily mean i believe it . victor : it 's a fair question , son . the fact that you do n't necessarily believe it is really warming my heart . that 's what a father likes to hear . do you share your brother 's belief that i 'm a murderer ? victoria : not one bit . victor : thank you for that . and thank you for looking after your mother and after newman enterprises while i 'm away . it means a lot to me . it 's a relief to have you around , you know . victoria : yes . you can count on me . victor : i know . nick : [ sighs ] victor : okay . would you mind ? uh , i need to have a word with your brother alone . victoria : i 'll see you soon . victor : bye . [ breathes deeply ] total honesty . nick : what do you want to know ? victor : did you kill j.t . hellstrom ? ( vo ) for a nasty cold , nick : you ca n't seriously be asking me that . victor : not only is the question serious , it 's fair . i mean , you had as much of a motive to get rid of j.t . hellstrom as anyone after you learned what he had done to your sister . and then ... genius ... you tried to pin the whole thing on me ... your father , whom you despise . nick : that 's all you got . victor : you impersonated j.t . hellstrom . you hacked into the newman system . were n't you worried that j.t . might suddenly come upon you and expose what you were doing ? you were n't worried about that , were you ... because you already knew he was dead ? nick : i did n't know where he was . victor : you could have planted the bloody shirt and the gun in the stables and then burned the damn thing down . no one would have suspected you . nick : but i did n't do that , and you know it , because i would never , ever put mom through that . victor : i think you mean that . and for your mother 's sake ... i want you to make me a promise . jill : come on . you 're not telling me anything . there must be something specific you did to let lily down . cane : it 's multiple things , really . jill : such as ? cane : i do n't know . they seem small . but when you 're in prison a couple hundred miles from home , all you really have are the small things , right ? jill : like ? cane : i , uh [ sighs ] i only went to visit her once during the kids ' christmas break . i missed phone calls , and i have n't really been , you know , very present in the kids ' lives . jill : okay . i 've heard enough . cane : well , you wanted examples , did n't you ? jill : yeah , i 've got some examples . if i sat down with lily right this minute and i asked her to rate as a husband and father , all i would hear would be raves . i mean , she knows how fortunate she is to have you here so she has something to come back to after the nightmare is over . honey , of course you 've made mistakes . everybody makes mistakes . but lily 's not gon na remember those . neither are the kids . you know what they 'll remember ? that you always stepped up and you loved them and you did your absolute best , okay ? and , uh , i 'm gon na let you in on a little more wisdom . these children of yours , these bright , gorgeous , exceptional children -- they 're gon na make mistakes , too . maybe only a few and maybe a whole hell of a lot . how do you want them to handle those , hmm ? do you want them to beat themselves up over them and just stop trying , or do you want them to learn from their screw - ups and forgive themselves and do better next time ? cane : of course choice `` b. `` jill : well , then , you damn well need to set a better example . got it ? i do n't hear you . cane : i 've got it . and now i know exactly what i have to do next . victoria : billy ! billy : hey ! i 'm in the kitchen ! i did n't hear you come in . victoria : oh . that 's , um -- that 's a new look for you . billy : yeah . i 'm just , uh , making dinner for you and the kids . it 's all done . just have to plate it . victoria : thank you . i was just upstairs . reed 's not here . billy : he went for a jog . he 's got a lot of tension to burn off . but i have to say that he 's handling it better than i would have expected . victoria : i 'm not judging him . i understand the pressure that he 's under . i just wish he 'd talk to me . billy : i do n't want to get ahead of myself , but i told him to do so . victoria : thank you ... and for making this food for us and ... for everything that you 've done since mom 's accident . i do n't know how would have survived without you . billy : well , that 's debatable . victoria : [ chuckles ] billy : to be honest , it 's been really nice spending time with you and the kids . that 's actually why i wanted to wait around and -- and talk to you . i do n't want you to think that there 's an ulterior motive for me being here . victoria : what ? why would i ? billy : well , last night , we ... we kissed ... and we hugged , and i just do n't want you to think that ... victoria : no . billy : ... i was expecting , you know , more . victoria : i know . i mean , it kind of took both of us by surprise . well , we can just forget about it . it 's not a big deal . billy : yeah . see , that 's the thing -- i do n't really want to forget about it , because it kind of feels like something 's happening between us . i do n't know . am i nuts ? so , i 'm not nuts . that 's a relief . victoria : before we read too much into this , i think we should be honest . once again , our timing is just -- it 's horrible . billy : hmm . inconvenient , maybe not ideal , but horrible ? that 's a little , uh -- little aggressive . victoria : you just got out of a very intense relationship , and i am dealing with major , massive crises and relying completely on you to get me through it ... so maybe these feelings are just simple ... billy : no , please continue . i want to hear about these feelings . victoria : well , maybe you should take a look at your own and see what 's triggering them . i mean , it 's the holidays . we 're spending so much time with the family . i know that that can make you feel nostalgic and comforting . billy : okay . this is not about me being on the rebound or needing comfort . i would never use you like that . victoria : i know . i know . not on purpose . billy : not ever . victoria : but we also have the kids to consider -- you know , johnny and katie . we would n't want to get them confused or get their hopes up prematurely . billy : okay . yeah . that 's a very good point . victoria : right . yes . billy : so , maybe we should just , uh , take some time and ... think about it and -- and , uh ... get together later , maybe . victoria : i think that sounds very reasonable . billy : okay . well , uh ... goodbye ... for now . victoria : goodbye . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . cane : uh , yeah , i probablyrobably should have called first . victoria : no , you 're fine . the kids are out , so i have a few minutes -- unless this is about the kiss , in which case i really -- cane : kiss ? um , what kiss ? there ... was no kiss . victoria : [ chuckles ] cane : [ chuckles ] victoria : sit down . cane : sure . um , actually , i came over to talk to you about the hit - and - run , 'cause yesterday when i went home , i spoke to charlie about it , and , uh , he 's -- he 's gutted . victoria : i know . reed is feeling the same way . he ca n't even look at me now that i know . cane : yeah . so , you know , i 've been thinking that maybe it 's best for their peace of mind if they , uh -- if they do n't keep it a secret and they -- you know , they confess . victoria : that 's -- that 's a huge decision . i mean , have you really considered the consequences ? cane : it 's just that i feel like the psychological damage of concealing it could be worse . victoria : worse than a felony conviction ? cane : no , i 'm actually talking about going to see nikki and telling her , you know , 'cause she 's the victim , and , you know , i think that she has a right to know . victoria : i agree . i almost told her myself this morning . cane : but you know you should n't have to do that because , you know , they 're old enough . it 's their responsibility , and ... you know , they can tell her , and she can impose whatever action she thinks is right . victoria : yes , i agree . maybe it will help them start to forgive themselves . cane : yeah , that 's what i 'm thinking , too , um ... you know , 'cause i think it would be good for charlie if -- you know , if he felt like he had a way that he could make it right , you know , and probably would for reed , as well , you know ? [ door unlocks , opens ] victoria : hey , reed ! reed : hi . mr. ashby . wh - what 's going on ? victoria : go upstairs , shower , and change . we 're going to see your grandmother . jill : mm . billy : ah , it 's good to see you . i 'm sorry to hear about colin . jill : mm . billy : it sucks that you had to deal with that over the holidays . why did n't you call me ? jill : no . i 'm so good . i 'm so good . i 'm better than ever . you know what ? i need to take a step back and look to the future . new year , new beginnings . billy : yeah . i 'm thinking along the same lines . jill : so ... how 's work with your ex - paramour as your boss ? billy : work is surprisingly cool . jill : hmm . billy : i 'm sure you 've heard about our exclusive with rebekah barlow . jill : oh , yeah . i could n't miss that . billy : that was my idea . jill : [ chuckles ] billy : uh , no , phyllis and i worked on it together , but she really brought it home in the end . jill : yeah . billy : look , i knew that if i was gon na stay at the company , i had to work through our personal differences , and i 'm happy to say that we have . and i 'm also happy to say that we are still a dynamic team ... workwise . jill : mm - hmm . well ... your feelings are my only concern . i just hope you know what you 're getting into . billy : i 'm not gon na get hurt , mom . my eyes are wide open . and phyllis has moved on with nick , so it is what it is . jill : she what ? billy : you heard me . it happened very quickly , but apparently she 's committed to both nick and his children , so whatever . jill : oh , honey . oh , i 'm so sorry . this must be painful for you . ohh ! billy : as if . jill : [ clears throat ] justoincidentally , have you seen much of victoria over the hol -- billy : not as much as you would like . jill : [ chuckles ] i have no clue what you 're talking about . billy : [ chuckles ] jill : [ laugs ] victor : someone has gone to great lengths ... to make sure that i 'm locked up . nick : why -- so they can target newman enterprises ? victor : it 's more personal than that . it means your mother 's still in jeopardy . nick : well , i 'm gon na look out for her . victor : you promise me that ? you 're the one who has to go to the ranch and find out who the hell set the place ablaze and find out who planted that phony evidence for the cops . that means your mother 's fate is in your hands , son . nick : do n't worry . i 'm on it . victor : can i depend on you ? nikki : cane . cane : hey . nikki : well , what a nice surprise . come in . come in . cane : thank you . uh , i 'm glad to hear you 're feeling better . nikki : thank you . victoria : hi . nikki : oh , hi , sweetheart . victoria : i 'm here with cane and , uh , two other people who are very anxious to see you . reed : hi , grandma . nikki : hey . hi , darling . charlie : nice to see you again , mrs . newman . how are you feeling ? nikki : well , much better . thank you , charlie . i - i love that you came to visit , but , um ... what 's all this about ? reed : charlie and i have something to tell you . tech : at safelite autoglass nikki : why do n't you start at the beginning ? charlie : one night before christmas , reed came over to hang out , and his friends were throwing a party . he said that we should go . he was just trying to cheer me up 'cause my girlfriend had moved away . he offered to drive 'cause i had been drinking that night , so i said , `` let 's go . `` but we never made it . on the way , it was just really snowy , and ... we could n't see anything . we hit something . i 'm really sorry . i - i had no idea it was you or that you were hurt . we did n't find out until later , when reed told me you were here . nikki : you had committed a hit - and - run ? you ca n't drive . your license was suspended . reed : i know . i know , and i hate myself for offering and for mentioning that stupid party ... and for not going back to see what we 'd hit . i knew that if we 'd gone back , i would have been in so much trouble for my license and for damaging mr . ashby 's car . if i 'd have known it was a person and that it was you ... i i would have called for help , and i would have stayed with you instead of going back to charlie 's house and pretending like nothing ever happened . when i found out what i had done and ... if you 'd have died , it would have been all my fault . i ... victoria : i only learned what happened a few days ago . cane : yeah , same here . i , uh -- i knew there wasi ought it was that he missed his mom or his girlfriend , but it was the guilt inside . it was -- it was tearing him up the same way it was for reed because they both felt like murderers . reed : we almost were . i still have n't stopped feeling sick about it . nikki : reed ... i want you to look me in the eye . tell me the truth . had you been drinking ? reed : no , grandma , not -- not a single drop . i promise . charlie : that 's why he offered to drive -- 'cause i was buzzed . if i would have just called a car , none of this would have happened . reed : god . i ca n't believe we 're such idiots . i 'm so , so sorry , grandma , not that that makes up for any of this . cane : now they 're ready to accept whatever consequences you deem appropriate . nikki : that i do ?

[ sighs ] i just was so out of it , i did n't know what the hell i was doing . and that 's why i stepped off the curb without looking , and that 's why you two could not have prevented this accident , no matter how safe you may have been driving . so stop blaming yourselves . charlie : we were in a car , and you were on foot . we 're still responsible . nikki : it does n't excuse me being out of control . it 's not your fault . reed : we still should have gone back to see what we 'd hit . nikki : and i should have known better . i should have maintained my sobriety and never put you in that position in the first place . i apologize from the bottom of my heart . i hope you can forgive me . charlie : we should be the ones asking for your forgiveness . nikki : you 've already got it . reed : [ crying ] nikki : okay . now , back to those consequences ... one of the best things about being a grandmother is i can leave things like that other people . so ... mom , dad ... you do whatever you feel is right , with one condition -- this is a family matter . it 's private . please do n't involve the police . cane : it 's a deal . victoria : cane , my mom looks a little tired , but i need to talk to her first . do you think you can drop reed off at home ? cane : yeah , of course . um , nikki , thank you so much for your compassion and your kindness . charlie : um , i hope you get well soon . nikki : thank you . cane : okay . come on . let 's go . nikki : i love you , honey . reed : [ speaks indistinctly ] nikki : oh . victoria : hey , you . not so fast . i am so proud of you . reed : i 'm glad . i thought you two were gon na hate me for the rest of my life . victoria : no , not a chance . reed : [ crying ] jill : ohhh . billy : [ chuckles ] jill : that was adorable . johnny the snowman ? he must have stolen the whole christmas pageant . billy : he pretty much did . he was great . jill : oh , i wish i could have been there with you ! billy : well , i 'm sure i could talk to him -- maybe get an encore performance . jill : do n't you tease me . do you think he would do that ? billy : he was anxious to give victoria one . jill : was that when you were all snowed in together ? billy : no , that was before . the snow - in was , uh , christmas day . jill : do you see ? the weather even conspired to have you all together as a family . billy : god . jill : the kids must have loved it , huh ? billy : yeah . yeah , so did i . jill : honey ... billy : hmm ? jill : ... i have n't seen you look this happy in years . i mean it -- in years . billy : you mean pre - phyllis ? jill : well , i did n't say that -- you did . billy : okay . you do n't have to act all coy , right ? jill : [ chuckles ] billy : i know you got a bumper sticker on your car that reads , `` team victoria . `` jill : do n't be so ridiculous . if i did have one , it would say , `` team billy and victoria , `` okay ?

[ scene_break ] bo : hey , chelsea . listen , i 'm sorry for what happened to you . chelsea : it 's no big deal . bo : whoa , do n't say that . chelsea : you 're trying to help me . i get that . but i can take care of myself . bo : i 'm not so sure about that . lockhart 's dangerous . you got to keep your distance . chelsea : [ scoffs ] bo : [ sighs ] what is it about him that women are so blind to who he is ? [ sighs ] you give him the chance , he 's gon na hurt you . [ scene_break ] hope : chelsea kissed you , did n't she ? patrick : can we please not talk about it ? hope : you know , it would have been so much easier for you to tell bo that she initiated it , but you would never do that , would you ? patrick : just let it go , hope . hope : it 's like you 're from another century . you would never criticize any woman , even to the woman who can see exactly what is taking place here . patrick : look , i really do n't want to get into it . chelsea has a lot of baggage . hope : i 'm sure that 's true , but -- patrick : look , you know , her parents die in a car accident . she 's alone , except for billie . i know she acts tough , but inside , that girl 's a mess . she 's confused , okay ? i - i 'm willing to bet she has no clue why she 's acting out this way . hope : i am not disagreeing with you . all i am saying is that i know women like chelsea . patrick : she 's a kid . hope : no , she is a woman -- younger in years , yes , but she can manipulate and she can scheme just as well as anyone . patrick : you got to give her a break . she 's got problems . hope : big ones , and you know what ? if you do n't pay attention to it , she could create bigger problems for you . patrick : ow , careful . hope : you hold it . you 're lucky you did n't lose a tooth . patrick : yeah ? your husband 's the lucky one . hope : what is it with you men ? how can you be so blind when it comes to women ? patrick : you 're talking about chelsea . hope : damn right i am . and you better listen to me ... because it takes a woman to really know another woman , and when i was chelsea 's age , i knew girls just like her . patrick : just like her ? hope : just like her . chelsea is trouble with a capital `` t. `` patrick : no , she 's lonely and afraid . hope : that does n't excuse -- patrick : come on , hope . she 's not the first girl to have a crush on an older guy . that does n't mean she 's whatever you think she is . hope : oh , i think she 's exactly who i think she is , and you know what ? because of it , bo 's even more suspicious of you than ever . patrick : that 's his problem . hope : it 's your problem , too . [ sighs ] maybe it was a mistake letting her move in here . patrick : she lost her house . she does n't have any family . it 's not like she 's living here alone with me . hope : billie should have gotten another place for both of them . patrick : she did n't have a place to go . my mom 's house is empty . i figured they could both crash here . it was an act of friendship . hope : i know . look , i 'm not questioning your motives , okay ? only chelsea 's . and all i 'm telling you is keep your eyes open and be careful , all right ? let me take a look at that bruise . does that hurt ? patrick : yeah . hope : let 's go get more ice . patrick : all right . [ scene_break ] bo : chelsea , i know that this has been a rough year for you ... chelsea : here we go again . bo : ... losing your parents , coming back from your own injuries . it 's been a lot to deal with . but i want you to know if you need to talk to somebody , something 's bothering you , i 'm here . or if you 're more comfortable talking to a woman , you can talk to hope or billie . we can help you . look , you 're a pretty , young woman . guys like lockhart -- they 're gon na come on to you , and you ca n't let them take advantage of you . chelsea : patrick was n't taking advantage of me . bo : yes , he was . and if your father were here , he 'd agree with me .

[ gasping , sniffles ] alex : i 'm sorry , but i told you all of these things so that you could understand ... how much you 've gone through in your life . this amnesia that you 're having -- that could be your mind 's way of telling you that your system -- it needs a rest . all these people , all these events that you 're trying to forget -- you 're doing that because they 're just too painful to remember .. marlena : that makes sense to me . you know , what i do n't understand is ... w - why i 'm so drawn ... to you . i - i -- did we have a relationship ? did i know you before ? or -- alex : or what ? marlena : or ... do you work for dimera ? alex : oh , no , i -- marlena : i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . i 'm so sorry . i do n't know why i said that . of course you do n't . alex : it 's all right . it 's normal to have these paranoid thoughts . just do n't let them bother you . marlena : and how do i do that ? everything you 've just told me is -- is very upsetting . alex : i brought you here for some intensive therapy . i thought that by isolating you from the people of your past , from -- from these events that you might start feeling safe , that you might start to heal . marlena : [ sniffles ] alex : i want you to feel safe with me , marlena . marlena : i do . i do n't know what i 'd do without you . [ scene_break ] hope : i 'm not picking on you . chelsea : right . hope : i 'm not , but we can all use a little friendly advice now and then . chelsea ... honey , i know things have been very difficult for you since your parents died ... suddenly finding yourself on your own . chelsea : look , my parents were great , okay ? they taught me everything i needed to know . hope : i do n't think they 'd approve of this behavior right now . chelsea : look , if you do n't like me , tough . i do n't need old witches like you and billie reed telling me what life 's all about . hope : i see . chelsea : or what it 's like to be a woman in a world of scary men . i can handle men just fine . hope : i 'm just suggesting that you be careful , that 's all . chelsea : go to hell . hope : i 'm sorry . um ... what did you just say ? chelsea : look , if i were you , i would n't even be that worried about me and patrick . i 'd be more focused on my own husband . hope : wow . where did that just come from ? chelsea : all i 'm saying is ... for all you know , bo could be cheating on you right now . do you even know where he is ? [ scene_break ] billie : there 's no way that patrick would let things get far , not with chelsea . bo : you would n't say that if you saw what i saw . billie : bo , chelsea 's had a crush on patrick for a few months now . i mean , when we first moved into the house with patrick , i was taking a shower , and chelsea `` accidentally `` walked in , in a towel . it was obvious she was hoping to see patrick . and then when she saw little old me , she was a little p.o . 'ed . bo : you make her sound like lolita . billie : well , she definitely has a wild side . and this thing with patrick -- i 'm pretty sure it was coming from her . bo : billie , he was all over her . billie : you just do n't like him . that 's why you want to see it that way . bo : you 're defending him once again . she 's a kid . he 's an adult . you 're not gon na convince me that it was n't his fault . billie : and if you 're wrong ? bo : well , then he 's been warned . billie : bo , what did you do ? bo : a little slap in the kisser , that 's all . billie : oh ! bo : if it turns out chelsea 's our daughter and he touches her again , he 's a dead man . [ scene_break ] hope : if you know where bo went , why do n't you tell me ? chelsea : you 're so quick with advice . here 's some for you -- billie called your husband , and as soon as he heard her voice , he ran off to meet her . just like that . patrick : your husband 's got a temper . hope : i apologize for that . patrick : it 's not your fault . hope : you know how to push his buttons , do n't you ? patrick : i 'm not afraid of him , hope . hope : i know . patrick : if you had n't stepped in when you did , i -- look , i 'm just glad you did , all right ? i do n't want you caught in the middle . i do n't want to see you upset . you have always been good to me . you have always treated me fairly . that means a lot to me . i trust you . hope : thank you for saying that . patrick : i just remember when we were on tony 's island , how we looked out for each other . you watched my back . i watched yours . hope : we did n't make a bad team , did we ? patrick : no . we 've saved each other 's lives more than once . you do n't forget something like that . well , at least i do n't . i , um ... i 'm not sure i would have made it back in one piece if it had n't been for you . hope : i - i feel the same way . enough talking , okay ? we need to take care of that mouth of yours . let 's try to get the swelling down . easy does it . there you go . you got it ? patrick : yeah . hope : okay , you got my body heat -- all right .

[ scene_break ] billie : was chelsea hurt in any way ? bo : no . billie : was she upset ? bo : she did n't seem to be . billie : well , does n't that tell you something ? i 'm sorry , bo , but i do n't think chelsea was the victim here . bo : and lockhart was ? he was forcing himself on her . billie : oh , come on ! i know patrick . he would never do something like that . bo : i was there . i saw it . billie : you were n't there from the beginning . you did n't see how it started . bo : what is up with you ? you 're always coming up with excuses for your boy scout . billie : that 's because i see something in patrick that you obviously do n't , and i do n't know why . maybe it 's a macho thing . bo : oh , come on . do n't give me that . billie : did you ask patrick what happened ? bo : did n't have to . billie : [ sighs ] right , because who needs a fair trial , right ? bo : someday , he is gon na prove to you himself what a con man he -- i do n't want to waste any more time talking about him . billie : you 're right . you 're right , because the important thing is chelsea ... and finding out whether or not she 's our daughter . [ mug shatters ] caroline : oh ! oh . [ scene_break ] kate : yes , it 's about billie 's daughter . john , i just feel like if i could question tony , i could get the truth out of him . oh , you would do that ? you 'd call shane donovan ? oh , that would be great . i only need clearance for today . oh , thank you , thank you . yes , and if i find anything out , i 'll let you know right away . yeah , you too . thank you . i knew i could count on him . now i just need to find some information on georgia and enough dirt on sami to send her packing . guard : mrs. brady . kate : yes ? guard : i just got a call from i.s.a . headquarters . i do n't know what strings you pulled , but you 've been cleared to talk to dimera . kate : well , thank you . guard : you 've got 10 minutes . kate : oh , that 'll be enough . i hope it 's enough .

[ scene_break ] caroline : thank you , sweetheart , for cleaning this up . bo : [ chuckling ] not a problem . caroline : bo . bo : huh ? caroline : if your daughter is out there , i want you to find her . i mean , she would be my granddaughter . bo : yeah . caroline : and i 'll love her unconditionally . i hope you know that . bo : yeah , sure i do . caroline : but have you thought about what this could mean to hope and your marriage ? bo : oh , yeah . we 've talked about it an awful lot . she does n't have a problem with it . caroline : oh . where did billie get her information ? bo : dimera . caroline : no . bo , you know you ca n't trust that man . bo : yes , ma , i know . but it could be true . caroline : oh , please be careful . we all know nothing good ever comes from the dimeras . bo : i 'll be careful . and hope knows that this is important to me . she does want me to find my daughter . caroline : why did n't you tell her that you were coming here ? bo : she disappeared someplace . i did n't have time to track her down . caroline : have you tried to call her ? bo : ma , i just got the news myself . caroline : do n't do this , bo . hope deserves to know everything that 's going on . bo : and she will know , ma ... because [ chuckles ] i 'll tell her everything .. good to have you back . caroline : i know you 're a grown man , and you do n't need my advice . bo : ma , i will always need your advice . do n't you worry . everything will work out . caroline : yeah . famous last words . [ scene_break ] billie : hey , i 've been thinking . bo : what ? billie : after all chelsea 's been through , we should n't tell her about this yet . not until we 're 100 % sure . bo : absolutely . if you 're worried about ma , do n't . she 'll keep it to herself . billie : good . bo : well , let 's go find out if chelsea benson is our daughter . and i know how we can do that . come on . i 'll see you , ma . [ scene_break ] alex : hey , hey . look at me . it 's only natural that you 'd reach out to me , because you do n't associate me with any of the negative things that have happened in your life . marlena : do you suppose ? oh . [ sighs ] although i - i , um , think i have a confession to make . alex : about ... marlena : well [ chuckles ] it 's actually pretty embarrassing . alex : okay , i 've been warned . marlena : well , you know that i 've been having these , um , memory flashes -- i guess that 's what you call them -- and -- and mostly i seem to be remembering ... kissing you and making love to you . alex : [ sighs ] as i told you before , that 's just transference . marlena : do you really think so ? alex : yes . you 're transferring your feelings for john and roman to me . that 's not unusual . marlena : [ exhales sharply ] oh . oh . alex : but these feelings that you 're having -- i can see they 're very disturbing to you . you have a lot to sort out . that 's why i 'm here -- to help you deal with it all . marlena : but as long as you do n't mind . alex : no , i do n't mind , and you should n't either . and if you think you 're being unfaithful ... you 're not . marlena : wow . [ sighs ] i do n't want to go back to salem . i know all those people are my friends and my family , and -- i just have no desire to see them again . mostly i keep trying to -- i keep trying to think of a way to stay here . it 's just so -- it 's so beautiful here , and it 's so peaceful . i love it . i love -- i love the flowers and -- oh , my . and the air and the mountains . and i just feel so ... safe ... and happy here with you . and all those people back home -- i - i just do n't ... seem to care about ever seeing them again . is that just plain wrong ? alex : no . marlena : [ sniffles ] thank you . alex : [ thinking ] that 's exactly what i 'm counting on . [ scene_break ] chloe : i 've made up my mind . i ca n't marry you looking like this .

bo and hope walk in on patrick kissing chelsea and bo , assuming that patrick was the one coming on to chelsea , punches him . hope guesses correctly who was the initiator and separately counsels patrick and chelsea about staying away from each other . patrick flashes back through intimate moments with hope while chelsea uses the knowledge of bo running off to meet billie to taunt hope . kate heads to see tony but instead runs into billie who informs her of tony 's declaration . kate uses it to try and push billie to be with bo . kate , after her attempts to use roman 's name to get in to see tony fail , calls john and gets him to grant her clearance on the belief that she wants to speak to tony about georgia . billie has bo meet her at the pub where they each relay their news . caroline overhears them talking and privately counsels bo on keeping his marriage together . marlena , inspired by a flashback of shower sex with alex , begins to make love with him . alex stops the lovemaking and tries to calm marlena by telling her pieces of her past . alex secretly delights in marlena 's desire to stay with him at the cabin rather than ever see salem again .

[ exhales sharply ] kate : well , baby , did he give you any proof ? billie : of course not . no . but ... patrick was the first person to actually say that chelsea could be georgia . when he brought that up , i called mickey horton to find out if it was true . kate : why mickey horton ? billie : because mickey was the bensons ' attorney , so he did a search to find adoption papers -- there were none . but , mom , tony could have destroyed those , right ? kate : honey , honey , it would just be so wonderful if you found your child . i mean , this would be the start of a brand - new life for you . you know , i 've always hoped that you and bo would end up together , and i think finding your daughter -- well , i think that could bring you closer . billie : mom , i ca n't think about that right now . the only thing that matters is that we find out if chelsea really is georgia . kate : yes , but she would be bo 's daughter , too , and she is going to need the two of you . [ scene_break ] patrick : out of the way . bo : you 're a sleaze . hope : stop it , both of you . please , bo , bo . bo : what ? hope : give him a chance to explain . bo : explain what , that he 's a low - life scum , taking advantage of a girl half his age ? hope : let him talk . bo : [ scoffs ] talk . patrick : [ exhales sharply ] just know it was n't what you thought . bo : how about what i saw , you kissing her ? are you gon na deny that ? patrick : no . chelsea : i 'm 18 . i 'm not a child . bo : very close to statutory rape , if you ask me . what you did was wrong , and you know it . patrick : you are jumping to the wrong conclusions , man . it 's none of your business . butt out . hope : chelsea , i need to talk to you for a minute . you want to tell me what just happened here ? chelsea : it was no big deal . hope : `` no big deal . `` patrick was n't coming on to you , was he ? the truth . chelsea : i do n't want to talk about it .

[ groans ] you want to lay into me now , too ? hope : no . i have a pretty good idea what just happened here . [ scene_break ] kate : sweetie [ sighs ] i do n't know . it could be a dimera trick . look how many times he has tormented you and bo . why would he suddenly be telling you the truth ? billie : i do n't know . i do n't know . i 've asked myself that same question .. [ sighs ] on the other hand ... do you remember when chelsea was in that accident ? she needed blood , and she had a rare blood marker , and she and i were the exact match . i - i mean , i saved her life because of the transfusion i gave her . kate : that could be a coincidence . billie : or we could be mother and daughter . would n't that be amazing if we have been living in the same house together all this time , and we did n't even know it ? kate : so , you 're thinking it 's fate . billie : i was at the scene of the accident , and -- and -- and she did need my blood to live . except -- kate : except what ? billie : except , well , it could be tony setting us up again . he has gotten our hopes up so many times before . mom , i do n't think i could handle another disappointment . kate : oh , honey , you are going to find your daughter . you are . and whether that is chelsea or not , it does n't matter . when that time comes , that is gon na be the right time for you and bo to be a family again , because i do believe -- i do believe that you are going to be with the man that you love . billie : mom , bo is married to hope , so just give it a rest , okay ? please .. oh , my god . bo does n't even know about any of this . i have to call him . kate : [ thinking ] it does n't matter what you say , billie . i 'm not gon na stop hoping that one day you 'll have a life with bo . but now i need to get lucas away from sami .

[ scene_break ] hope : chelsea kissed you , did n't she ? patrick : can we please not talk about it ? hope : you know , it would have been so much easier for you to tell bo that she initiated it , but you would never do that , would you ? patrick : just let it go , hope . hope : it 's like you 're from another century . you would never criticize any woman , even to the woman who can see exactly what is taking place here . patrick : look , i really do n't want to get into it . chelsea has a lot of baggage . hope : i 'm sure that 's true , but -- patrick : look , you know , her parents die in a car accident . she 's alone , except for billie . i know she acts tough , but inside , that girl 's a mess . she 's confused , okay ? i - i 'm willing to bet she has no clue why she 's acting out this way . hope : i am not disagreeing with you . all i am saying is that i know women like chelsea . patrick : she 's a kid . hope : no , she is a woman -- younger in years , yes , but she can manipulate and she can scheme just as well as anyone . patrick : you got to give her a break . she 's got problems . hope : big ones , and you know what ? if you do n't pay attention to it , she could create bigger problems for you . patrick : ow , careful . hope : you hold it . you 're lucky you did n't lose a tooth . patrick : yeah ? your husband 's the lucky one . hope : what is it with you men ? how can you be so blind when it comes to women ? patrick : you 're talking about chelsea . hope : damn right i am . and you better listen to me ... because it takes a woman to really know another woman , and when i was chelsea 's age , i knew girls just like her . patrick : just like her ? hope : just like her . chelsea is trouble with a capital `` t. `` patrick : no , she 's lonely and afraid . hope : that does n't excuse -- patrick : come on , hope . she 's not the first girl to have a crush on an older guy . that does n't mean she 's whatever you think she is . hope : oh , i think she 's exactly who i think she is , and you know what ? because of it , bo 's even more suspicious of you than ever . patrick : that 's his problem . hope : it 's your problem , too . [ sighs ] maybe it was a mistake letting her move in here . patrick : she lost her house . she does n't have any family . it 's not like she 's living here alone with me . hope : billie should have gotten another place for both of them . patrick : she did n't have a place to go . my mom 's house is empty . i figured they could both crash here . it was an act of friendship . hope : i know . look , i 'm not questioning your motives , okay ? only chelsea 's . and all i 'm telling you is keep your eyes open and be careful , all right ? let me take a look at that bruise . does that hurt ? patrick : yeah . hope : let 's go get more ice . patrick : all right .

[ gasping , sniffles ] alex : i 'm sorry , but i told you all of these things so that you could understand ... how much you 've gone through in your life . this amnesia that you 're having -- that could be your mind 's way of telling you that your system -- it needs a rest . all these people , all these events that you 're trying to forget -- you 're doing that because they 're just too painful to remember .. marlena : that makes sense to me . you know , what i do n't understand is ... w - why i 'm so drawn ... to you . i - i -- did we have a relationship ? did i know you before ? or -- alex : or what ? marlena : or ... do you work for dimera ? alex : oh , no , i -- marlena : i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . i 'm so sorry . i do n't know why i said that . of course you do n't . alex : it 's all right . it 's normal to have these paranoid thoughts . just do n't let them bother you . marlena : and how do i do that ? everything you 've just told me is -- is very upsetting . alex : i brought you here for some intensive therapy . i thought that by isolating you from the people of your past , from -- from these events that you might start feeling safe , that you might start to heal . marlena : [ sniffles ] alex : i want you to feel safe with me , marlena . marlena : i do . i do n't know what i 'd do without you . [ scene_break ] hope : i 'm not picking on you . chelsea : right . hope : i 'm not , but we can all use a little friendly advice now and then . chelsea ... honey , i know things have been very difficult for you since your parents died ... suddenly finding yourself on your own . chelsea : look , my parents were great , okay ? they taught me everything i needed to know . hope : i do n't think they 'd approve of this behavior right now . chelsea : look , if you do n't like me , tough . i do n't need old witches like you and billie reed telling me what life 's all about . hope : i see . chelsea : or what it 's like to be a woman in a world of scary men . i can handle men just fine . hope : i 'm just suggesting that you be careful , that 's all . chelsea : go to hell . hope : i 'm sorry . um ... what did you just say ? chelsea : look , if i were you , i would n't even be that worried about me and patrick . i 'd be more focused on my own husband . hope : wow . where did that just come from ? chelsea : all i 'm saying is ... for all you know , bo could be cheating on you right now . do you even know where he is ? [ scene_break ] billie : there 's no way that patrick would let things get far , not with chelsea . bo : you would n't say that if you saw what i saw . billie : bo , chelsea 's had a crush on patrick for a few months now . i mean , when we first moved into the house with patrick , i was taking a shower , and chelsea `` accidentally `` walked in , in a towel . it was obvious she was hoping to see patrick . and then when she saw little old me , she was a little p.o . 'ed . bo : you make her sound like lolita . billie : well , she definitely has a wild side . and this thing with patrick -- i 'm pretty sure it was coming from her . bo : billie , he was all over her . billie : you just do n't like him . that 's why you want to see it that way . bo : you 're defending him once again . she 's a kid . he 's an adult . you 're not gon na convince me that it was n't his fault . billie : and if you 're wrong ? bo : well , then he 's been warned . billie : bo , what did you do ? bo : a little slap in the kisser , that 's all . billie : oh ! bo : if it turns out chelsea 's our daughter and he touches her again , he 's a dead man . [ scene_break ] hope : if you know where bo went , why do n't you tell me ? chelsea : you 're so quick with advice . here 's some for you -- billie called your husband , and as soon as he heard her voice , he ran off to meet her . just like that . patrick : your husband 's got a temper . hope : i apologize for that . patrick : it 's not your fault . hope : you know how to push his buttons , do n't you ? patrick : i 'm not afraid of him , hope . hope : i know . patrick : if you had n't stepped in when you did , i -- look , i 'm just glad you did , all right ? i do n't want you caught in the middle . i do n't want to see you upset . you have always been good to me . you have always treated me fairly . that means a lot to me . i trust you . hope : thank you for saying that . patrick : i just remember when we were on tony 's island , how we looked out for each other . you watched my back . i watched yours . hope : we did n't make a bad team , did we ? patrick : no . we 've saved each other 's lives more than once . you do n't forget something like that . well , at least i do n't . i , um ... i 'm not sure i would have made it back in one piece if it had n't been for you . hope : i - i feel the same way . enough talking , okay ? we need to take care of that mouth of yours . let 's try to get the swelling down . easy does it . there you go . you got it ? patrick : yeah . hope : okay , you got my body heat -- all right .

[ scene_break ] lulu : so , i have brought our latest issue for you to look at . brenda : oh , yes , well , of course . look , i 'm incredibly honored that you would want me on the cover , but i do n't really do much of this stuff anymore unless it 's connected to my charity . and it 's kind of a bad time right now . i mean , i could have contract issues with cartullo . lulu : well , honestly , if you agree , kate could hammer something out . she 's very , very bulldozer - like . and i know that she would move the universe to make sure the photo shoot was very comfortable and easy . whatever she can do . whatever `` crimson `` can do . brenda : well , i 'm so honored , again , i have to tell you , but i 'm gon na have to decline . i 'm sorry . lulu : well , actually , jax has controlling interest in the magazine , and it was his original idea to have you on the cover . brenda : oh . he did n't say anything to me about it . lulu : well , that 's because of carly . and if carly does n't want it , then -- brenda : yeah , i got it . lulu : but we 've already done mockups . we 've already done an outline of an accompanying article which would include information about your charity . brenda : oh . lulu : you know , we were thinking originally for christmas , but that 's obviously too late , so we could push for valentine 's day . brenda : ha ha ha ! oh , my goodness . lulu : please ! brenda : you know what , let me talk to jax about this . i mean , if he asked me himself , i might consider it . [ scene_break ] carly : looks like you thought of everything . a secure place for brenda to live , police protection . i 'm guessing brenda 's gon na have a problem with it and i 'm sure jason will object . jax : she 's not happy living at jason 's . as long as security 's tight , i think they 'll both be okay with it . carly : it looks like you thought of everything . guess we 're good to go . jax : you know , i have to tell you , i do appreciate you trying so hard not to go off right now . carly : any reason why i should ? jax : no , there is absolutely no reason because brenda and i are friends . i 'm just trying to help , okay ? carly : so what about sonny ? where does he fit into all this ? jax : brenda wants to stay away from him . so the sooner she goes back to rome , the better it will be for everyone . that 's what i 'm trying to do . i 'm trying to get her out of here . you have nothing to worry about . carly : who says i 'm worried ? you know what you stand to lose . jax : yes , i do . but could i get a small reminder ? carly : no . you can suffer .

[ scene_break ] dante : so i 'm digging deeper in brenda 's movements from 2003 to the present . claire : well , what do you mean ? i thought you already gave me the information . dante : well , not really . i mean , i gave you the boiler plate -- where she lived , where she traveled to , the fact that she 's always paid her taxes on time . except that 's not what you 're interested in . you are more interested in who she 's ever been involved with , right ? you want to see if there 's someone who could potentially take her away from sonny . claire : look , i 'm not proud of the fact that i 'm looking around the past of someone who could be considered romantic competition . dante : others have bent the rules for way less . claire : anyway , according to sonny , he and brenda are no more , at least for the time being . dante : well , then you got nothing to worry about . claire : oh , i 'm a fed and he 's a monster . there 's always something to worry about . enough about sonny . let 's get to the matter at hand . i want to discuss police protection for brenda . [ scene_break ] ethan : maya had nothing to do with doctoring luke 's test results . that was all me . monica : i mean , you 're luke 's son , so you 're obviously good at the con , but for this one it takes medical know - how , and that 's maya . maya : it was me , okay . no excuses or justification . so , should i go clean out my locker ? monica : you falsify another patient 's records and the answer 's yes . ethan : another patient . so we 're gon na let this one slide ? monica : tracy is basically a dreadful human being . she has even been more dreadful since she tossed luke out . living with her has been miserable . so if she buys into your scheme and takes upon herself the job of nursing luke back to health , then maybe the quartermaines can have just a little peace . so right now , i 'm wishing you all the success in the world . [ scene_break ] tracy : i will see you through your recovery . when you 've returned to your usual infuriating self , we 'll see where we stand . until then , what can i do for you ? luke : just one thing . do me the honor of becoming my wife .

[ scene_break ] dante : jason is more than capable of taking care of brenda . claire : jax does n't think so , and he has a point . jason 's life revolves around violence . brenda can easily end up a casualty in a completely unrelated incident . and i would like to keep brenda safe for my own reasons . dante : what are those reasons ? claire : well , if something happened to her , sonny 's guilt would be off the charts . and that would definitely kill anything that we have going on . dante : whoa . okay . well , then why do n't you talk to ronnie and from now on we can just go -- claire : no , i 'm pulling rank on this . i want you . dante : no . i have way too much on my plate . claire : not anymore . i 'm taking you off the zacchara car bomb . i 'm gon na reassign another investigator . okay ? so what 's the problem here ? i thought this was what you wanted . dante : yeah , i did . but i wanted to be reassigned because of conflict of interest , not to free me up so i can baby - sit somebody . claire : not up for debate . as of right now , you are officially brenda 's bodyguard . [ scene_break ] lulu : i know this sounds ridiculous , but if i do n't get brenda on the cover , it could cost me my job . that 's how badly kate wants this . carly : kate wants to undermine me and jax . she knows how much i 'll hate having brenda on the cover . she 's hoping that jax and i will have a big blow - up fight and it 'll end in divorce . lulu : no . i mean , you do n't even need to play along with that . carly : i do n't ? lulu : carly , brenda said she would do it if jax would ask her personally . and we both know he 's not gon na because you have a problem with it . look , carly , i 'm asking you , i 'm begging you , just tell jax that you 're okay with this . [ scene_break ] brenda : it 's not sonny 's fault . it really is n't . it 's me . i just become a crazy person when i 'm around him . it does n't matter ; it 's over for good this time . jax : well , for now . until he decides you 've had enough time to get over him , and then he 'll come after you again . 'cause that 's the way he is , you know . he does n't care who he hurts in the process . it 's the way he 's always been . brenda : it really is over for good . i know that for sure this time . you know , i 've grown up and i know what i can and ca n't have in my life . anyway , i 'll be okay . jax : and what if you 're not ? brenda : maybe i 'll just call my sponsor . jax : and that would be me . right ?

let 's just call it even , right ? olivia : no , no , no , you are way ahead . okay , look , i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry i misunderstood the argument you and neil had , i 'm sorry i stuck my nose in it . i 'm sorry , i 'm sorry , i 'm sorry . can you -- could you just go ? dru : where 's wes ? olivia : he 's not here . dru : let me ask another way . why is n't he here ? olivia : because he isn't . dru : you two are joined at the hip , honey . olivia : look , if you must know , we went out tonight . dru : really ? olivia : yeah , we saw a horrible movie . dru : nobody cares what 's on the screen if you 're with the right guy , right ? okay , what 's got you so blue ? olivia : noth -- i 'm just working through some stuff . dru : stuff you could n't work through with wes ? olivia : that 's right . in fact , i 've told him that we should take a little break . good afternoon . it is may - but you 'd ner r know it - the heavy snow is creating major problems on our city streets . the city has about 50 clean - up crews clearing the sloppy streets . we 'll find out what 's in store for us weatherwise . police are investigating the case of the stolen harleys . 200-thousand dollars worth of motorcycles were stolen from a west end shop . and - the troubleshooter looks for answers from a company that targets pet owners with a letter that sharon : nicholas , please , ca n't you see that -- nick : what i see is how incredibly self - serving you are . sharon : cassie deserves some kind of explanation . nick : she deserved that months ago . sharon : i was in no condition then . nick : i seriously doubt you 're in any condition now . sharon : at least give me a chance to apologize . nick : for what , for destroying cassie 's world , or for tearinger family apart , or for turning a happy , secure little girl into an emotional basket case ... or is it because she almost died when you left because you walked away from her ? sharon : you 're not telling me anything i have n't already told myself . nick : then i ca n't believe you have the gall to stand here and ask me if you can see her . it 's just not gon na happen . sharon : nicholas . nick : look , she is finally starting to heal . do you want to risk all that ? sharon : i thought it might help . nick : well , that 's your ego talking because she told me that she does n't want to think about you anymore because it hurts too damn much . sharon : well , see ? she would n't be in that much pain if she did n't care . nick : yeah , i told her that . sharon : you did ? nick : i did everything i could to try and cover for you , to explain , to help them understand why all this happened . sharon : but they just did n't understand ? nick : how could they ? their mother left them -- that 's all they understand . sharon : well ... thank you for not painting me into some kind of demon . nick : sharon , you 're really messed up , and i seriously hope that you 're getting some help because , god knows , you need it . nick : you had everything . we had everything . at least , that 's whai i thought . sharon : i know . i know you thought that , but things happened , nicholas , and i - i felt very much alone . nick : well , you certainly found ways to deal with your loneliness . sharon : i messed up . i 'm not a saint . sharon : leaving my kids was terrible , but i thought then , and i still think now , things had gotten so out of control , i could n't be a good influence . they were better off without me , and it was n't an easy decision , nicholas , and whether you want to believe me or not , i was trying to put those kids first . nick : nice try , but i 'm not buying it . neil : all right , doc , let 's hear these concerns of yours , but keep in mind that i 'm the dad . wes : yeah , i know , you 're the dad , you 're the boss , but the lily that i just left at the coffeehouse was more upset than i 've ever seen her and very withdrawn . i mean , she would n't even tell me what was bothering her , and that is a first . i 'm sure it has something to do with what we talked about a few days ago . neil : she 's still worried about her mother and me . wes : well , is there a reason for that , neil ? neil : not that it 's any of your business , but , um , things are basically good for us . you know , it 's jusththat dru and i have been busy as hell , have n't had much family time . wes : and when you do , let 's face it , it has n't really been ozzie and harriet , has it ? come on , i kw there 's some tension going on because you work for newman , dru works for jabot . neil : listen , wes , dru and i love each other , and the situation is n't exactly ideal , but then , when is it ever ? wes : okay . so that 's one of the reasons for my visit . neil : well , you ai n't moving in . wes : you 're funny . look , here 's the deal , big guy , i think it 's time that you and dru ... get married . woman : ah , he 's here . ricardo : trini , trini , do n't jump all over him like aupuppy . trini : i know .

isabella : half a continent , and if that does n't work ... diane : ( laughs ) i 'm sure it will help , until the first pang of separation . isabella : i know you like to play devil 's advocate , but christine has been a busy girl herself these days . diane : yeah , andy told me that she was back in town . isabella : and about to become mrs . michael baldwin . diane : oh , so that engagement 's back on ? wonders never cease . isabella : no , no , when i mean , `` about to , `` i mean now , tonight . they eloped . diane : are you serious ? isabella : mm - hmm . by this time tomorrow , they 'll be safely married , that 's if michael does n't screw it up . diane : wh w what 's going on ? isabella : nothing , nothing . forget about it . everything 's fine . i 'm just anxious for everyone to move on . diane : isabella , come on , it 's me , and i know both you and michael pretty well . so if something 's making you nervous -- isabella : no , you know , diane , if it 's all the same to you , i just want to focus on the positive and how perfect my life is . nothing 's gon na spoil this for me . you hear me ? nothing . michael : chris , please , just let me -- just , please -- chris : do n't touch me . i am trying so hard to process this . i know what it sounds like , but i ca n't quite connect it to my brain . it 's too much . michael : hey , it 's not as big a deal as it sounds . chris : oh , god , how can you say that ? you interfered with my marriage . you sent a beautiful woman to play damsel in distress to my lonely husband . michael : and why was paul lonely ? because you and he could n't stay in the same room together . chris : you sent her to his offic on the very day he was gon na come see me in hong kong . he wanted us to get together , michael . michael : to fight like cats and dogs for all yoknew . sweetheart , the marriage was over . chris , please , i swear , i was doing you a favor . chris : oh , you were doing me a favor ? look what you 've done . how could you do this to me ? sharon : well , it really does n't matter what you believe about me . our marriage is over , so all that matters now is the kids . nick : wow ... how humane . sharon : you know , i relyly thought we could have a civil conversation . nick : seems civil enough to me . sharon : i feel your bitterness . nick : how do i make you understand ? i do n't want to talk to you , i do n't want the kids to talk to you , i just want you to leave . sharon : you really do n't believe that the kids have any right to say whether they want to see me or not ? nick : no , i do n't want you messing with their heads again . sharon : well , a judge may feel differently . nick : do n't you dare . do n't you dare think along those lines . sharon : you 're not giving me much choice . nick : you have no choice . you gave up that choice the day you walked out on our family . cassie : dad ? dad , are you down here ? nick : hey , come here . so , it was called cattle point . of the nation , and subsequentlyne of th here . your cruise director , ron dru : so you decided to take a break ? what happened ? olivia : nothing . dru : oh , i know something happened . oh , liv , are the two of you incompatible in the bed ? olivia : oh , god . dru : no , i do n't mean to brag , but we were always on point when we were getting our groove on . olivia : stop it , stop it . dru : we never should have been sleeping with the same guy , right ? it was wrong , we were raised better , and as sisters , frankly , i think we should talk about it . olivia : frankly , i do n't want to talk about it at all . dru : so we 're gon na stay holed up in the apartment , is that it ? olivia : i 'm not `` holed up in the apartment . `` dru : i think i know you better than you know yourself . here 's what i think happened -- you were having such a fabulous time , you said , `` oh , my god , how can i be having this much fun ? something must be wrong . `` olivia : is this you helping me ? dru : yeah , i happen to know that you dig the guy . so why you putting him on hold ? olivia : why did you ? dru : oh , that 's a whole different set of circumstances . olivia : yeah , you 're right , because , i mean , you , you have to choose between these two wonderful men and kick one of them to the curb . dru : i 'm gon na pretend that you meant that nicely . now why do n't you tell me why you have put dr . carter on hold ? olivia : because i do n't think he 's over you yet , because i think you 're still on his mind , because somewhere in his head , he 's got this `` wes / liv `` story playing out , and i just , i need time , okay ? i just need him to slow down . dru : how much time ? olivia : two weeks . dru : honey , do you know what could happen in two weeks ? olivia : it 's not that long . dru : oh , maybe i need to paint a picture for y .. wes is fine , okay ? his eyes are gon na be wide open , and there 's a lot to see in this world . he 's a man . olivia : look , i just need the time , okay ? dru : time is not on your side , honey . you are a doctor . you see death on a regular basis . liv , life is precious , so live for the now . be spontaneous . olivia : okay , wait , wait , why is my relationship with wes so important to you all of a sudden ?

lily : what is n't ? school sucks , things at home are a mess . colleen : god , your parents are still fiting ? lily : that 's putting it mildly . my mom and dad are barely speaking . lily : then there 's wesley . he proposed to my mom , and i so hoped those two would get married . that would have been the coolest , but now , instead , he 's got something going on with my aunt . i do n't know what i did to deserve it , but it 's like everything i care about has just fallen apart . neil : you think dru and i ought to get married ? wes : i think lily needs that stability , man , and you say that you and dru love each other , right ? neil : yeah , we do . wes : veve , commitment , marriage ... i mean , lily -- to see her parents together , that 's what she needs , and i really do n't see my life going dru 's direction anymore . neil : so where do you see your life going , back to france ? wes : how about we keep the focus on you ? what do you think of my idea ? neil : well , i 'll take it under advisement . wes : neil , it 's n no - brainer . you know you want to marry dru , and lily needs a foundation she can trust . she loves you , she loves her mother . you need to give her a way for her to love both of you together . all right , i 've said my piece . neil : hey , wes , thanks for the input . wes : free of charge . you 're looking live at edmonton from our skytracker atop manulife place . good afternoon . i 'm lesley macdonald . coming up at 5 : 30 ... the huge clean is underway up from monster storms that swept through the american heartland on sunday . and there 's more turbulance in canada 's airline industry , with hundreds of people about to lose their jobs . and too racy for walmart . three popular men 's magazines are bebeing pulled off store shelves . we 'll have these stories and more ...... on edmonton 's global news at 5 : 30 . cassi dad , what 's wrong ?

chris : you sent isabella ... michael : no , no , no ... chris : to latch on to my husband at the exact moment when he was at his most vulnerable . michael : i sent her to prevent him from going to hong kong , that is all . she did not tie him up , she did not toss him in a closet . he made that decision himself , nototo get on that plane . chris : oh , god , i ca n't believe you 're gon na try and talk your way out of this . michael : out of what , out of what ? i did n't say , `` be sure you make him fall in love with you , isabella , `` it just happened . nobody slipped anything into paul 's drink . what he did , he did of his own free will . chris : you tell me and you tell yourself that all you want is my happiness -- look at what you 've done . michael : yes , yes , yes , that 's all i 've ever wanted is your happiness . that 's all -- chris : how dare you say that , how dare you . lily : you see ? i told you , there 's nothing you can do . sierra : hey , sorry . colleen : yeah , me too , but you know what ? things could still work out . sierra : yeah , you do n't know what 's gon na hapn . lily : yes , i do . ever since i moved back to this town , nothing has gone the way it was supposed to , and why should this be any different ? sierra : well , maybe your parents are going through , like , a phase or something ? colleen : yeah . lily : yeah , but that 's the problem , though , they 're always going through a phase . one day , they 're getting along fine , the next , the ca n't stand each other ? i mean , they say they want to keep this family together , but they 're constantly fighting . i do n't know why they keep playing these stupid games . colleen : you know that we are always here for you , right ? sierra : yeah , whatever you need . lily : that 's really nice of you guys to say . colleen : we mean it . sierra : not that we really know what this is like for you . lily : yeah , and how could you ? you both have such perfect lives . sierra , you never seem to have a problem in the world , and i know that you had a rough year , colleen ... colleen : i did . lily : but now everything is going great for you . i mean , you and your dad are getting along , you have the man of your dreams , and what do i have ? nothing . colleen : uh ... you know what ? why do n't the three of us go over to my place ? sierra : yeah . lily : i should probably be getting home . colleen : you know , just for a little while . you know , we can talk , just chill out . lily : i do n't need your pity . colleen : it 's not pity . i just thought that -- lily : look , i 'm sorry , colleen , but i just really want to be alone right now . colleen : lily , wait . sierra : wait . colleen : ( sighs ) nick : sweetheart , you look really tired . cassie : i 'm afraid to fall asleep . you know what i 'll see . nick : the nightmares are n't getting any better , are they ? cassie : why wo n't they go away ? nick : you know , i 've been thinking that maybe we should see a doctor . cassie : you mean a psychiatrist ? nick : no , i mean a therapist . i 'm really worried about you . csie : every time i fall asleep , she 's there . i mean , i have that same stupid dream about mom . it 's like she wo n't leave me alone , and i just want her to go away so i can sleep . nick : oh , i 'm so sorry . come here . nick : i 'm here with you , you know ? i just wish there was more i could do for you . cassie : do you think i 'm going crazy ? nick : no , that 's not what seeing a therapist is all about . cassie : it 's not ? nick : no , it 's about , you know , somebody helping you with your feelings , helping you to look inside yourself and work out your problems . cassie : you think i need a therapist for that ? nick : i think you might . cassie : dad , i know what i 'm feeling . i mean , it 's not very complicated . nick : look , i understand that you 're hurt and angry , i do , but i also know how much you love your mother . cassie : please , do n't start about mom again . nick : sweetheart , it 's really not good for you to keep all your feelings bottled up inside . cassie : well , you know what ? it 's not good for your mom to walk out on your life , either , but sometimes they do , like mine did . nick : you know , maybe , uh , maybe i should try and find your mother again . cassie : why ? she does n't want to be with us . nick : look , we both know that your mother has some problems she needs to worouout . cassie : please , do n't start about mom and how she loves us anyway . do n't start because i do n't believe it . nick : what if i could find her ? would n't you like that ? it 'd be a chance to -- cassie : no ! no , i hate her . i do n't ever want to see her again . ( doorbell rings ) neil : yeah ? hey . dru : forgot my key . neil : i 'm glad you 're back . where you been ? dru : upstairs visiting my sister . neil : not another argument , i hope . dru : oh , man , you know how it is when we get together . i love her to death , but , younonow -- neil : yeah , but sparks fly whenever you all are ... dru : what 's that look in your eye ? neil : what look ? dru : the one that looks like you have something on your mind . neil : oh . yeah , there is , but , uh ... the thing is i do n't know really where to start . dru : the beginning 's a good place . neil : maybe with something like this ? chris : i 'm out of here . michael : no . please . please . please . please . why is this happening ? everything was going perfectly . i mean ... you wrote those beautiful vows , and you said a t those wonderful things about me and us . then , all the sudden , you and paul had this perfect marriage , and i ruined it . oh , christine , it was n't a perfect marriage . no . look , if i were ... if i had the incredible honor of ever being married to you , a hundred isabellas could walk into my office . i swear i 'd never lay a finger on one of them . why you doing this right now ? i can make you the happiest woman in the world . i swear to you , i love you . chris : let me tell you something . you know nothing about love . you got that ? nothing . michael : oh , yeah . chris : i never want to see your face again as long as i -- michael : no ! why -- why -- you 're not listening to me . you 're not listening to me . chris : i am listening to you . what a fool i am ! michael : do n't go . do n't go . chris : let go of me . michael : chris , please just -- just -- just listen to me ! listen to me !

el : i could n't think of -- chris : all right , you know , let me just get this straight . we 're talking about the first time that isabella paul 's office ? michael : yes . chris : i was living in asia at the time , did n't find out until much later is that paul was gon na come visit me to see if our marriage could be saved , but he never made it to the airport because of some new , important case , some poor woman who needed protection because she was being threatened by her criminal ex - husband ... michael : that 's what paul was told . chris : and after awhile , when i realized that our marriage could be saved , i came back here to talk to paul , but he wwith isabella as a couple . are you telling me that you 're responsible for that ?

olivia : yeah , we saw a horrible movie . dru : nobody cares what 's on the screen if you 're with the right guy , right ? okay , what 's got you so blue ? olivia : noth -- i 'm just working through some stuff . dru : stuff you could n't work through with wes ? olivia : that 's right . in fact , i 've told him that we should take a little break . good afternoon . it is may - but you 'd ner r know it - the heavy snow is creating major problems on our city streets . the city has about 50 clean - up crews clearing the sloppy streets . we 'll find out what 's in store for us weatherwise . police are investigating the case of the stolen harleys . 200-thousand dollars worth of motorcycles were stolen from a west end shop . and - the troubleshooter looks for answers from a company that targets pet owners with a letter that sharon : nicholas , please , ca n't you see that -- nick : what i see is how incredibly self - serving you are . sharon : cassie deserves some kind of explanation . nick : she deserved that months ago . sharon : i was in no condition then . nick : i seriously doubt you 're in any condition now . sharon : at least give me a chance to apologize . nick : for what , for destroying cassie 's world , or for tearinger family apart , or for turning a happy , secure little girl into an emotional basket case ... or is it because she almost died when you left because you walked away from her ? sharon : you 're not telling me anything i have n't already told myself . nick : then i ca n't believe you have the gall to stand here and ask me if you can see her . it 's just not gon na happen . sharon : nicholas . nick : look , she is finally starting to heal . do you want to risk all that ? sharon : i thought it might help . nick : well , that 's your ego talking because she told me that she does n't want to think about you anymore because it hurts too damn much . sharon : well , see ? she would n't be in that much pain if she did n't care . nick : yeah , i told her that . sharon : you did ? nick : i did everything i could to try and cover for you , to explain , to help them understand why all this happened . sharon : but they just did n't understand ? nick : how could they ? their mother left them -- that 's all they understand . sharon : well ... thank you for not painting me into some kind of demon . nick : sharon , you 're really messed up , and i seriously hope that you 're getting some help because , god knows , you need it . nick : you had everything . we had everything . at least , that 's whai i thought . sharon : i know . i know you thought that , but things happened , nicholas , and i - i felt very much alone . nick : well , you certainly found ways to deal with your loneliness . sharon : i messed up . i 'm not a saint . sharon : leaving my kids was terrible , but i thought then , and i still think now , things had gotten so out of control , i could n't be a good influence . they were better off without me , and it was n't an easy decision , nicholas , and whether you want to believe me or not , i was trying to put those kids first . nick : nice try , but i 'm not buying it . neil : all right , doc , let 's hear these concerns of yours , but keep in mind that i 'm the dad . wes : yeah , i know , you 're the dad , you 're the boss , but the lily that i just left at the coffeehouse was more upset than i 've ever seen her and very withdrawn . i mean , she would n't even tell me what was bothering her , and that is a first . i 'm sure it has something to do with what we talked about a few days ago . neil : she 's still worried about her mother and me . wes : well , is there a reason for that , neil ? neil : not that it 's any of your business , but , um , things are basically good for us . you know , it 's jusththat dru and i have been busy as hell , have n't had much family time . wes : and when you do , let 's face it , it has n't really been ozzie and harriet , has it ? come on , i kw there 's some tension going on because you work for newman , dru works for jabot . neil : listen , wes , dru and i love each other , and the situation is n't exactly ideal , but then , when is it ever ? wes : okay . so that 's one of the reasons for my visit . neil : well , you ai n't moving in . wes : you 're funny . look , here 's the deal , big guy , i think it 's time that you and dru ... get married . woman : ah , he 's here . ricardo : trini , trini , do n't jump all over him like aupuppy . trini : i know .

isabella : half a continent , and if that does n't work ... diane : ( laughs ) i 'm sure it will help , until the first pang of separation . isabella : i know you like to play devil 's advocate , but christine has been a busy girl herself these days . diane : yeah , andy told me that she was back in town . isabella : and about to become mrs . michael baldwin . diane : oh , so that engagement 's back on ?

isabella : nothing , nothing . forget about it . everything 's fine . i 'm just anxious for everyone to move on . diane : isabella , come on , it 's me , and i know both you and michael pretty well . so if something 's making you nervous -- isabella : no , you know , diane , if it 's all the same to you , i just want to focus on the positive and how perfect my life is . nothing 's gon na spoil this for me . you hear me ? nothing . michael : chris , please , just let me -- just , please -- chris : do n't touch me . i am trying so hard to process this . i know what it sounds like , but i ca n't quite connect it to my brain . it 's too much . michael : hey , it 's not as big a deal as it sounds . chris : oh , god , how can you say that ? you interfered with my marriage . you sent a beautiful woman to play damsel in distress to my lonely husband . michael : and why was paul lonely ? because you and he could n't stay in the same room together . chris : you sent her to his offic on the very day he was gon na come see me in hong kong . he wanted us to get together , michael . michael : to fight like cats and dogs for all yoknew . sweetheart , the marriage was over . chris , please , i swear , i was doing you a favor . chris : oh , you were doing me a favor ?

nick : i think you might . cassie : dad , i know what i 'm feeling . i mean , it 's not very complicated . nick : look , i understand that you 're hurt and angry , i do , but i also know how much you love your mother . cassie : please , do n't start about mom again . nick : sweetheart , it 's really not good for you to keep all your feelings bottled up inside . cassie : well , you know what ? it 's not good for your mom to walk out on your life , either , but sometimes they do , like mine did . nick : you know , maybe , uh , maybe i should try and find your mother again . cassie : why ? she does n't want to be with us . nick : look , we both know that your mother has some problems she needs to worouout . cassie : please , do n't start about mom and how she loves us anyway . do n't start because i do n't believe it . nick : what if i could find her ?

victor : the last time i saw that bastard was in the hospital room after i 'd just come out of a coma . victoria was there , as well . i was unable to speak . had i been able to speak , i would have called the cops and told them that he was responsible for my condition . rey : that must have been terrible , being able to hear and see , but not able to communicate . victor : you have no idea . rey : you 're right , i do n't have any idea , but i am determined to find the bastard . victor : mm . rey : and make him pay for what he did to you . victor : mm . rey : i have one problem , though . it seems like he just disappeared without a trace the last night he was seen at your daughter 's . how does a man just vanish like that ? victor : are you asking my opinion , or are you making an accusation ? additional sponsorship jack : fine , i 'll get city hall on the horn , find out what 's holding up the inspection . nick : great . before you go , do you want to tell me what 's been bugging you ? jack : why would you say that ? nick : ah , you 've been out of it all day . jack : i 'm sorry , i 've just maybe been a bit preoccupied . nick : search for your dad ? after we talked about it yesterday , it kind of seems like it 's been weighing on you . jack : nick , i lay awake last night wondering if i should just drop the whole damn thing . i have wanted answers so badly , and yet , more than one person has told me `` be careful what you wish for . you may not like the answers that you find . `` nick : makes sense . once you know for sure . jack : yeah , once you know for sure , there 's no turning back . rey : you know j.t . hellstrom as well as anyone . why would n't i want to pick your brain ? victor : j.t . hellstrom worked in security , and , as such , he knows how to evade surveillance tapes , okay ? and he certainly knows how to get off the grid . rey : that 's a good point . victor : he eluded my investigators for months . rey : you must have been pretty pissed when you found out it was your own son who hacked into the newman servers , as opposed to j.t . , who you were originally led to believe . that means the trail is still cold . victor : do you like to listen to yourself theorize , or are you asking me a question ? rey : i 'm just trying to get a handle on all the dynamics here . thinking out loud helps me think . your son and you had a very public feud , yet you still came here when he was arrested to make sure he was all right . victor : nicholas is my son , and , as such , we have a very strong bond , no matter the differences . that bond can not easily be broken . rey : that 's nice to hear . i 'm not sure a lot of fathers feel that way . victor : mm . rey : a lot of men would leave their own families for far less . victor : well , those men should not be called fathers , nor men . mariah : oh , my god . tessa , this happened here ? tessa : yeah . yeah . it was super slow , and i was by myself , and the guy just jumped me . mariah : he ? who 's he ? who did this to you ? tessa : the people demanding money , threatening me ? mariah : he said that to you ? tessa : no , he did n't say a word , but i know exactly who it was and exactly what it was about . okay ? message received . and , no , before you ask , i did not call the police . for obvious reasons . but i did see a doctor , and i 'm really okay . mariah : tessa , these guys are dangerous , and they are getting impatient . what if they decide to get rid of you ? tessa : no , see , all they want is their money , and once i get it to them , this will all be over . mariah : okay , fine . well , i have a decent amount in my savings account , and -- tessa : no . no . mariah , i told you , we 're not using your money . mariah : then what can i do to help ? tessa : help me find a job with better pay , more hours . mariah : fine . i will tell you if i hear anything . tessa : okay . so , i want to make as much money as quickly as possible , so i should go back to my shift . all right , i 'll see you later . okay ? billy : i told you that you do n't have to worry about it , all right ? i got a finite amount of money put aside for gambling every single month , and when that 's gone , it 's done . i 'm very disciplined . phyllis : i need you to mean that . billy : i do mean it . it 's under control . unlike things around here . phyllis : what re you talking about ? billy : [ groans ] well , you know , it 's just , uh , with the launch coming up , things are spread a little bit thin -- marketing , legal , all that kind of stuff -- so it 'd be great if fenmore 's could recognize that . phyllis : how , exactly ? billy : by not making any unusual demands , at least not until after the launch . and i 'd appreciate it if you could talk to lauren , just , you know , get her to calm down a little bit . i do n't want her to freak out over this . phyllis : well , that 'll be a feat , since i 'm about 10 seconds away from doing that myself . billy : you 're fine . come on , it 's -- it 's fine . phyllis : i told you that i support you , okay ? in your decision to forge ahead with these boutiques , but i am concerned about the way you are putting everything on the line . billy : phyllis ... phyllis : you are cutting into people 's budgets , okay ? you 're alienating them personally . and you are pouring the majority of your resources into this one project . what if it does n't pay off ? billy : it will . phyllis : i need you to not lose sight of the possible consequences . [ cellphone chimes ] billy : that 's my cue , i got to call somebody on the west coast , okay ? thank you for your concern , but it 's gon na be fine . you 'll see . we 're gon na come out way ahead of where we were before . way ahead . phyllis : for your sake , i sincerely hope so . summer : [ sighs ] phyllis : it 's not gon na make it get here any faster . summer : gee , thanks for the tip . phyllis : i 'm glad i ran into you . first thing tomorrow morning , i need your help to do a review of fenmore 's projects . i need to see if we can trim or postpone anything . we need to put a temporary reserve on our resources . summer : that sounds like a blast . phyllis : i know that , um , you and i are not in the best place right now . but we have to still get along while we 're at the office . we still have to work together . summer : [ scoffs ] that 's what he said , too , but i do n't know how i 'm supposed to . [ voice breaking ] phyllis : who are you talking about ? summer : kyle . we had this massive falling out , and now he hates me , just like everybody else does . phyllis : no one hates you . summer : do n't lie . phyllis : i 'm not . no , come on , i will take you for a drink , and you 'll tell me what happened with kyle , and we can see if we can fix this . summer : you do n't have to do that . phyllis : no matter what 's gone down between the two of us , i 'm still your mother . and if i can help , i will . now , come on , get in here . lola : next in line ! you again . kyle : you remember me . i 'm flattered . lola : i never forget a difficult customer . kyle : promise i 'll never be that guy again . i 'm planning to become a regular . your food 's so fantastic , i even dream about it . lola : is that right ? then , tell me , were you dreaming about having the shredded beef sandwich again , or maybe trying today 's special ? pollo tropicale with yellow rice , beans , and friend plantains ? 'cause i need you to place an order before this line gets backed up . kyle : chicken it is . i like the way you get right to the point . you 're all about the business . lola : how else should it be ? this is my place of business , just like that big building over there is yours . kyle : i 'm trying to pay you a compliment . you 're not making it easy . lola : [ chuckles ] and you blame me ? kyle : no , i realized i gave you a lot of attitude the other day , acted like an entitled snob . i had no right . i do n't have excuses , but i am sorry about it . lola : sounds like you actually mean that . now , step aside . when your food 's ready , i 'll let you know . next in line ! nick : what 's up ? victor : i have n't seen you since the arrest . how are you doing ? nick : i 'm fine . just doing damage control . victor : mm , yeah , the media did quite a hatchet job on your new company . nick : yeah . it did . figured you were behind that . turned me into the cops and then leaked the story . victor : i could see why you would think that , but i would n't want to do that . nick : good to know . so , what is this , a well - being check ? victor : i had a meeting with that new cop in town . what 's his name , uh , rey -- rey ... ? nick : rosales . victor : oh , yeah , rosales . yeah . nick : yeah , whose idea was that ? victor : well , he asked me to come to the police station , you know ? he wanted to find out what i knew about j.t . hellstrom 's disappearance . and how all the people involved intersected . nick : you did n't buy it ? victor : no . he was on a phishing expedition . he wanted to know about our relationship . nick : yeah , he made a point of asking me about you , as well . victor : mm - hmm . nick : i think he 's either intrigued by us or confused . i do n't know , there 's a lot of layers to get through . victor : that 's putting it mildly , is n't it ? nick : but as complex as our relationship is , i know it 's better than what you had with your dad . victor : what brought up that man ? nick : i was talking to jack yesterday about his search for his biological father , and he mentioned that sons like to compare themselves against their father , and he brought up you and albert . victor : mm . hope you told him that albert miller is not worth the breath he spent talking about him . nick : i was n't that kind . hopefully i gave jack some food for thought . victor : good . jack : billy ! billy : hey . jack : you got a minute for a drink , or are you here for a meeting ? billy : uh , no , i 'm just grabbing some takeout and heading back to the office , but i 'll join you for a drink . jack : so , do n't take this the wrong way . you look a little beat . billy : [ sighs ] good eye . jack : so we 're both having a rough day . what 's going on with you ? billy : debating an opportunity that would n't make sense to anyone else , but , in my gut , feels like the right thing to do . jack : so , have you thought this thing through , or is this another one of your notorious impulses ? on a scale of slam - dunk to `` this could blow up in my face , `` where exactly does this opportunity fall ? nick : you want me to hire tessa ? mariah : she needs to make more money . nick : you know , i could use some help on a short - term project we 're working on right now . it 's pretty menial stuff , though , making deliveries to a tech company that 's doing some work for us , some filing is definitely piling up . would she be willing to work nights , even late sometimes ? mariah : i think that she would be thrilled . when can she start , tomorrow ? nick : how about tonight ? mariah : that is even better . i 'm gon na text her right away . thank you so much . nick : sure . lola : 102 and 103 ! enjoy . thank you . kyle : thanks . by the way , it 's kyle . since i 'll be here a lot , you might as well know my name . lola : yeah . lola . there 's another customer . kyle : [ chuckles ] sorry . i 'll get out of your way . till next time , lola . rey : after hearing all about your truck , i had to come see it myself . lola : you 're just in time . i was about to close . rey : i 'm proud of you , sis . starting your own business , that takes guts . lola : that means a lot . rey : how 'd you get the truck ? it must have been expensive . lola : it was a hunk of junk when i bought it , which is why it was a bargain . arturo helped me remodel it . rey : is it up to code ? lola : yes . rey : and you have all the necessary permits ? lola : of course . rey : well , i hope you 're parking in safe neighborhoods and only working during daytime hours . you 're all alone . you have all this cash on you -- lola : this is why i moved in with arturo . he gives me credit that i know what i 'm doing . you 've always treated me like an incompetent child . rey : no , no , no . i was only strict because i was trying to protect you . lola : i was a social outcast because of your stupid rules . i 've spent the last couple of years going to midnight movies and dance clubs and dating guys , doing all of the things you would n't let me do , and -- surprise ! -- nothing bad has happened . now i need to close up . rey : are you dating someone ? because , if you are , i would like to meet him . lola : oh , my god . it 's like talking into a catcher 's mitt . you do n't even try to listen ! i 'm an adult now . you need to back off . rey : lola . lola ! billy : thank you . billy : you 're being a bit cagey with the details . billy : i do n't mean to be . this opportunity might be exactly what i 'm looking for . jack : and no one , including yourself , can get hurt ? billy : no . jack : if that 's the case , i say go for it . what the hell do you care what anyone else thinks ? billy : i think that 's my answer , jack . jack : good . billy : what about you , why are you having such a rotten day ? jack : as you know , i 've been searching for my biological father , and i am at a crossroads . i do n't know whether to dig deeper or just give it all up . billy : i understand you wanting to know your history , jack , i do , but i 'm just not sure about the payoff . i mean , say you find you share dna with some stranger who 's not alive anymore , or potentially did n't even know that you existed , some lowlife guy ? or flipside of that , it 's a great guy , but as good as john abbott ? not possible . so , yeah , there 's upside here , but i see a whole lot of potential downside . jack : you make a lot of sense . billy : then i think you know what you need to do . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . tessa : so , what do you want me to do first ? nick : organize all these papers into files , label them , and then put them into the filing cabinet in the back . tessa : no problem . nick : if you run across a document you do n't understand or you do n't know what do with , just leave it on my desk . in addition , you 're gon na be running a variety of hardware back and forth to a computer security firm we 're doing some work with . here 's the address . tessa : what 's wrong with your computers ? nick : tessa , just do the work . you do n't need to know the details other than we need to remove these files from our servers . tessa : okay . nick : now , my cellphone number is on there , as well . if you come across a problem or anything comes up , you call me . tessa : i will . good night , and , again , uh , nick , i -- i ca n't thank you enough . seriously . you 're saving my life . nick : you 're gon na do great . good luck . tessa : thanks . [ giggles , squeals ] [ humming ] gloria : [ sighs ] billy : gloria . gloria : ah ! hello . i finished everything on your list , and now i 'm going home and pouring myself a big glass of wine . billy : i need you to take care of one thing before you take off . i 'm sorry to do this . gloria : [ sighs ] billy : this is a confidential wire transfer from the jabot account . gloria : to ? billy : the transaction needs to clear by 11 : 00 tonight . this is the amount , and this right here is the routing number . gloria : okay . and that is quite a chunk of change . who 's this going to ? the fifth race at belmont ? billy : not remotely funny . gloria : it really was n't meant to be , billy . billy : it 's to pay off a business loan with one of our banks . the deadline crept up on me . thank you . have a good night . gloria : okay . [ exhales sharply ] summer : i do n't know , i thought that kyle and i were friends who could taunt and tease and play around , but ... i do n't know , it meant something different to him than it did to me . phyllis : he still has feelings for you . summer : yeah , but how was i supposed to know that ? and now he barely wants anything to do with me . phyllis : i 'm very sorry . i know how painful this is for you . and all i can say is you have got to give it some time , you know , and you ca n't stop reaching out to him . gently . and , you know , this is n't about what you want . this is about what kyle 's feeling and the damage to the relationship , i mean , so just go easy . capisce ? summer : right . got it . thanks for the drink . i should probably get going , though . phyllis : hang on , hang on , hang on . i thought you were willing to take my advice . summer : yeah , i was . until i remembered who i was talking to , the woman that puts herself first always when it comes to men , who really does n't care how she treats them . phyllis : i 'm sorry , i 'm trying to build a bridge here . that 's something a lot of mothers would n't do to daughters who went after their boyfriends . summer : oh , well , do you want a medal for that , or ... ? phyllis : uh , i think a little cooperation would be nice . i still do n't really understand why you could do what you did to me . summer : mom , i -- phyllis : no , you know what , let 's talk about it . let 's talk about it because i 'd like to know why . summer : fine . in the beginning , it was just because i was attracted to billy . i wanted him . so i treated it like a game to see if i could make it happen . phyllis : [ laughs ] okay . okay , that 's great . so then what ? what , you just keep throwing yourself at a man that i 'm in love with ? why would you want to try to break us up ? summer : well , i did n't realize it then . maybe i just could n't admit it to myself , but ... i just wanted to hurt you . jack : [ exhales sharply ] [ doorbell rings ] victor : so , i understand that you 're prying into my family business . jack : i 'm interested in my family tree , not yours . victor : cut the crap , will you ? apparently , there was a picture on gc buzz that made you think that you saw your father in it . got news for you -- that was a picture of albert miller , my father . now , what makes you think that you 're the son of that man , based on an old photo ? jack : a photo that was taken at the genoa city country club , where my mother claims she met the man who fathered me . all of the other candidates in that picture have been eliminated . victor : oh , i see , so you 're basing your ludicrous theory on nothing . jack : it seems like quite a coincidence to me that dina 's and albert 's paths crossed just when she got pregnant with me . victor : that 's delusional thinking . jack : is it ? you know , one thing is clear to me . the reason you 're here , the reason you 're working so hard to disabuse me of this idea is that you 're having a little trouble not believing it yourself . tessa : hello ? anybody there ? [ footsteps approaching ] tessa : i 'm armed ! stay away ! mariah : hi . tessa : [ sighs ] woman , you scared the crap out of me ! i thought you were an intruder . i was ready to attack . mariah : what were you gon na do , staple me to death ? tessa : well , i had to improvise . mariah : well , i 'm sorry that i spooked you . tessa : no , it 's -- i 'm , uh , just a little on edge . mariah : yeah , i figured you would be anxious , working here alone , so i decided to come keep you company , and i brought supper . tessa : you are so sweet . it seems like i just take , take , take , and you just keep giving . mariah : that is not true . you give me so much . tessa : i do ? mariah : yes . you make me happy , you make me laugh , and you make me feel loved . which means more to me than anything . rey : lola ! almost did n't recognize you . i 'm not used to seeing you outside your truck . lola : how was your dinner ? kyle : highlight of my day . lola : you gon na dream about my food again tonight ? kyle : that depends . lola : on what ? kyle : whether you let me buy you a cup of coffee . lola : coffee , no . double espresso , however ... kyle : a woman who knows what she wants . lola : [ chuckles ] kyle : i like that . so , should i get it to go , or will you join me ? lola : depends . kyle : on ? lola : are you gon na ask me out , or what ? phyllis : i still do n't understand why you wanted to punish me . have i ever done anything to you to justify you betraying me like that ? summer : not directly . but you lie and cheat and manipulate -- phyllis : oh , we have been over this before , summer . summer : it does n't mean that it just went away . you know , every time that you do some terrible thing , it seems like you always have an explanation for it . i guess i just kind of got used to it . and you 're my mom , so automatically every time i was on your side , even if i had to twist my brain in a pretzel to make it happen . and then , you know , i finally put some distance between us , and i started seeing things in a new light . and what you did to jack by sneaking around with billy is -- phyllis : okay , i agree with you . summer : oh , yeah , i mean , i would sure hope so . and ... i know that my grandpa did things that really screwed with your head . and your marriage . and you went through hell , and i felt so badly for both of you . but jack still loved you more than anything , and he was willing to do anything to make it work , and that still was n't enough for you . phyllis : our marriage was in shambles . we were both just broken people . i did n't know how to fix it . summer : then you should have had the decency to walk away instead of sleeping with his brother . and now you say that billy is your one - and - only , but you cheated on him , too , and you think it 's okay because you guys were `` on a break ? `` and then you made up with him right afterwards ? mom , you need to wake up because it is not okay . you constantly trash people 's hearts , and you are always hurting everyone around you . i do n't -- phyllis : i seriously had no idea that you had all this pent - up anger and resentment towards me . do you still love me ? summer : you 're my mom . yes , i still love you . but i do n't think that our relationship is ever gon na be the same again . kyle : i was working up to asking you out . i wanted to savor the anticipation . lola : well , you do n't want to wait too long , do you ? kyle : would you like to go on a date with me ? lola : let me get back to you . kyle : is that a yes ? lola : what do you think ? kyle : give your number . i 'll type it into my contacts . lola : i 'll think about where i want to go , text you a couple ideas . am i being too pushy ? kyle : no way . i 'd much rather take you to some place you want to be . guarantees our evening will start out right . lola : thanks again for the espresso . i 'll look forward to our date . gloria : hey ! wire transfer went through . billy : wonderful . thank you , thank you very , very much . enjoy the rest of your evening . gloria : oh , i intend to , and hopefully next time , something this important , you wo n't wait till the last minute . billy : you do n't have to worry about that . there 's not gon na be a next time . gloria : okay . good night , boss . billy : night ! phyllis : you were right before . things will never be the same between us . but i do n't want them to be . i -- honey , i want them to be better . i really do . i really want us to find a way to forgive each other and move on . summer : you really think that that 's possible ? phyllis : i do . i do . it 's gon na take some time because i think the two of us have some serious baggage . but the way we begin to forgive each other , it starts with honesty and understanding . and i think this is the most real conversation we 've had since you 've been back , and i appreciate that . i know it 's been difficult , but i feel like this is a step forward . i think this is a good step , and i 'm really grateful for that . thank you . victor : [ chuckles ] you must despise the idea that you and i are related as much as i do . jack : as you 're so fond of saying , `` you got that right . `` victor : mm - hmm . so then why are you pursuing this , hmm ? you trying to claim a stake in my company ? i built that company from the ground up . albert miller had nothing to do with it . and the last thing i will ever do is allow you to claim another stake in newman enterprises . jack : i am merely looking for the truth . this is where the truth led me . victor : really ? you would n't know the truth if it bit you in the ass . jack : you know what , i was just gon na drop this , forget all about it . now i have reconsidered . judging from your reaction , i guess i 'm on the right path . victor : albert miller is burning in hell , and i will ask the devil to turn up the flames . you do not take one step closer to my legacy , to my family . jack : just try and stop me .
lola argues with rey because he does n't want to treat her like an adult and later she has coffee with kyle and persudes him to ask her out on a date . rey questions victor about jt but victir remains tight lipped and later victoir goes to nick 's office and tells him rey has nothing on the jt case but they should still be careful and nick tells victir that he thinks he persudes jack tostop looking for his biological father by telling him stories aboutbut he tells albert miller . tessa tells mariah about her attack but only because mariah asks for the truth after she sees the bruises on tessa 's arms . mariah gets tessa a job working for nick hoping that with two jobs they can pay off the money she owes to those men that helped tessa relocate crystal . phyllis worries about billy after he tells her about all the money he lost . but billy assures her he has everything under control . billy transfers money from a jabot account to pay the money he owes but he tells gloria that it is to pay off a jabot business deal . victor tells jack that he wo n't get a stake in newman entrprises because he built the company on his own and albert miller had nothing to do with it . jack tells victor he was going to drohe camp everything and leave it alone but his reaction makes him think he is on the right track so he wo n't stop until he can find out if albert miller is his father . summer tells phyllis he wanted to break up her relationship with billy because she is attracted to him but now she knows its because she does n't like how she makes a mess of her life and hurts people and does n't seem to learn from her mistakes . phyllis wants to mend their relationship but summer says their relationship wo n't be the same again .
<s>[INST] [ previously_on ] tessa : [ screams ] sharon : tessa , what 's happening ? tessa ? ! it sounded like you were being attacked . tessa : i was . nick : it was me who hacked newman enterprises . jack : hacking , as you know , still leaves digital fingerprints . nick : i 'll just hire a cybersecurity expert and wipe all the data . kyle : my family owns that building , and the company . lola : do n't feel bad . kyle : excuse me ? lola : that the only job you could get was from someone with your last name . jack : it could be another matt miller . i mean , that 's a very common name . abby : he said the man in the photo with dina was his father , and my dad 's father , albert miller . billy : i thought i had more shares in that account . well , i need the money , so ... yes , it 's an emergency . i tried to tell you that yesterday before our call mysteriously got cut off . look . there 's got to be something that you can do , okay ? why ? why ca n't you handle it today ? i understand new york is closed . just keep working on it , all right ? [ sighs ] phyllis : what 's that about ? billy : budget issues . phyllis : really ? billy : yes , really . why , you do n't believe me ? phyllis : well , i could n't help but notice you getting off the phone so quickly when i walked in , and you hid whatever was on your screen . billy : is there something you want to see me about , specifically ? phyllis : it is 6 : 00 , and since we live together , i thought it 'd be a good idea to discuss our plans for this evening , but clearly you 're in a rotten mood . billy : well , there 's a lot going on right now , okay ? we 're gearing up for the launch , and just because the little hand is on the 6 and the big hand is on the 12 does n't mean i can waltz out of here . phyllis : okay , well , um , this budget issue -- does it have anything to with jabot , or -- wild guess -- is it really about your gambling ? summer : hey . kyle : hey . summer : got a minute ? kyle : [ sighs ] what do you need ? summer : um , i just e - mailed you my report on millennial fashion trends , and i was just hoping that you could look it over , give me your thoughts . you can just e - mail me back so we do n't have to spend any time together . kyle : i never said i wanted that . summer : well , you made it pretty clear that you want me out of your life , and i 'm trying to do what i can to make that possible while still doing my job . kyle : why do you have to make everything so complicated ? i have n't been ghosting you . we still have to work together . [ sighs ] only you could be such a drama queen about something as dry as trend analysis . summer : and only you could be so rude and condescending when i am trying my best to fix our friendship , which i happen to think is worth saving , and , evidently , you do n't , which does n't mean that you have to insult me , kyle . kyle : summer , wait ! mariah : hey ! i 'm home ! tessa : [ gasps ] uh , welcome back ! how was , uh , the big trip ? how 'd the remote go in madison ? mariah : why did you react that way when i hugged you ? tessa : uh , i was , uh , startled . mariah : no , you -- you gasped and winced like you were in pain . tessa : oh , i smacked into the corner of the counter earlier and i got a little bruise . it 's nothing . mariah : show me . tessa : what ? mariah : well , if that 's really all that it is , then show me . tessa : okay , you 're being ridiculous . [ gasps ] [ exhales sharply ] [ inhales sharply ] mariah : are you really gon na blame this on the counter ? tessa : look , i -- i just did n't want you freaking out . mariah : too late . i am already imagining all of the terrible ways you could have gotten those . tessa , what happened while i was gone , and why are you lying to me about it ? billy : these syndicates are incredibly sophisticated . they hire professional oddmakers , statisticians . the players are not risk - adverse , so the payouts are huge . phyllis : meaning the price to buy in is equally huge . billy : you do n't have to worry about that , okay ? i can afford it . phyllis : look . you lost that bet with our horse , okay ? billy : ah . phyllis : you 've been talking about playing more poker , and now this . sports betting . on top of everything else , do you think that this is wise ? rey : right this way . thank you for coming , mr . newman . victor : mm - hmm . so , why do n't you tell me why you called me ? rey : j.t . hellstrom . victor : mm . rey : when 's the last time you saw him ? victor : the last time i saw that bastard was in the hospital room after i 'd just come out of a coma . victoria was there , as well . i was unable to speak . had i been able to speak , i would have called the cops and told them that he was responsible for my condition . rey : that must have been terrible , being able to hear and see , but not able to communicate . victor : you have no idea . rey : you 're right , i do n't have any idea , but i am determined to find the bastard . victor : mm . rey : and make him pay for what he did to you . victor : mm . rey : i have one problem , though . it seems like he just disappeared without a trace the last night he was seen at your daughter 's . how does a man just vanish like that ? victor : are you asking my opinion , or are you making an accusation ? additional sponsorship jack : fine , i 'll get city hall on the horn , find out what 's holding up the inspection . nick : great . before you go , do you want to tell me what 's been bugging you ? jack : why would you say that ? nick : ah , you 've been out of it all day . jack : i 'm sorry , i 've just maybe been a bit preoccupied . nick : search for your dad ? after we talked about it yesterday , it kind of seems like it 's been weighing on you . jack : nick , i lay awake last night wondering if i should just drop the whole damn thing . i have wanted answers so badly , and yet , more than one person has told me `` be careful what you wish for . you may not like the answers that you find . `` nick : makes sense . once you know for sure . jack : yeah , once you know for sure , there 's no turning back . rey : you know j.t . hellstrom as well as anyone . why would n't i want to pick your brain ? victor : j.t . hellstrom worked in security , and , as such , he knows how to evade surveillance tapes , okay ? and he certainly knows how to get off the grid . rey : that 's a good point . victor : he eluded my investigators for months . rey : you must have been pretty pissed when you found out it was your own son who hacked into the newman servers , as opposed to j.t . , who you were originally led to believe . that means the trail is still cold . victor : do you like to listen to yourself theorize , or are you asking me a question ? rey : i 'm just trying to get a handle on all the dynamics here . thinking out loud helps me think . your son and you had a very public feud , yet you still came here when he was arrested to make sure he was all right . victor : nicholas is my son , and , as such , we have a very strong bond , no matter the differences . that bond can not easily be broken . rey : that 's nice to hear . i 'm not sure a lot of fathers feel that way . victor : mm . rey : a lot of men would leave their own families for far less . victor : well , those men should not be called fathers , nor men . mariah : oh , my god . tessa , this happened here ? tessa : yeah . yeah . it was super slow , and i was by myself , and the guy just jumped me . mariah : he ? who 's he ? who did this to you ? tessa : the people demanding money , threatening me ? mariah : he said that to you ? tessa : no , he did n't say a word , but i know exactly who it was and exactly what it was about . okay ? message received . and , no , before you ask , i did not call the police . for obvious reasons . but i did see a doctor , and i 'm really okay . mariah : tessa , these guys are dangerous , and they are getting impatient . what if they decide to get rid of you ? tessa : no , see , all they want is their money , and once i get it to them , this will all be over . mariah : okay , fine . well , i have a decent amount in my savings account , and -- tessa : no . no . mariah , i told you , we 're not using your money . mariah : then what can i do to help ? tessa : help me find a job with better pay , more hours . mariah : fine . i will tell you if i hear anything . tessa : okay . so , i want to make as much money as quickly as possible , so i should go back to my shift . all right , i 'll see you later . okay ? billy : i told you that you do n't have to worry about it , all right ? i got a finite amount of money put aside for gambling every single month , and when that 's gone , it 's done . i 'm very disciplined . phyllis : i need you to mean that . billy : i do mean it . it 's under control . unlike things around here . phyllis : what re you talking about ? billy : [ groans ] well , you know , it 's just , uh , with the launch coming up , things are spread a little bit thin -- marketing , legal , all that kind of stuff -- so it 'd be great if fenmore 's could recognize that . phyllis : how , exactly ? billy : by not making any unusual demands , at least not until after the launch . and i 'd appreciate it if you could talk to lauren , just , you know , get her to calm down a little bit . i do n't want her to freak out over this . phyllis : well , that 'll be a feat , since i 'm about 10 seconds away from doing that myself . billy : you 're fine . come on , it 's -- it 's fine . phyllis : i told you that i support you , okay ? in your decision to forge ahead with these boutiques , but i am concerned about the way you are putting everything on the line . billy : phyllis ... phyllis : you are cutting into people 's budgets , okay ? you 're alienating them personally . and you are pouring the majority of your resources into this one project . what if it does n't pay off ? billy : it will . phyllis : i need you to not lose sight of the possible consequences . [ cellphone chimes ] billy : that 's my cue , i got to call somebody on the west coast , okay ? thank you for your concern , but it 's gon na be fine . you 'll see . we 're gon na come out way ahead of where we were before . way ahead . phyllis : for your sake , i sincerely hope so . summer : [ sighs ] phyllis : it 's not gon na make it get here any faster . summer : gee , thanks for the tip . phyllis : i 'm glad i ran into you . first thing tomorrow morning , i need your help to do a review of fenmore 's projects . i need to see if we can trim or postpone anything . we need to put a temporary reserve on our resources . summer : that sounds like a blast . phyllis : i know that , um , you and i are not in the best place right now . but we have to still get along while we 're at the office . we still have to work together . summer : [ scoffs ] that 's what he said , too , but i do n't know how i 'm supposed to . [ voice breaking ] phyllis : who are you talking about ? summer : kyle . we had this massive falling out , and now he hates me , just like everybody else does . phyllis : no one hates you . summer : do n't lie . phyllis : i 'm not . no , come on , i will take you for a drink , and you 'll tell me what happened with kyle , and we can see if we can fix this . summer : you do n't have to do that . phyllis : no matter what 's gone down between the two of us , i 'm still your mother . and if i can help , i will . now , come on , get in here . lola : next in line ! you again . kyle : you remember me . i 'm flattered . lola : i never forget a difficult customer . kyle : promise i 'll never be that guy again . i 'm planning to become a regular . your food 's so fantastic , i even dream about it . lola : is that right ? then , tell me , were you dreaming about having the shredded beef sandwich again , or maybe trying today 's special ? pollo tropicale with yellow rice , beans , and friend plantains ? 'cause i need you to place an order before this line gets backed up . kyle : chicken it is . i like the way you get right to the point . you 're all about the business . lola : how else should it be ? this is my place of business , just like that big building over there is yours . kyle : i 'm trying to pay you a compliment . you 're not making it easy . lola : [ chuckles ] and you blame me ? kyle : no , i realized i gave you a lot of attitude the other day , acted like an entitled snob . i had no right . i do n't have excuses , but i am sorry about it . lola : sounds like you actually mean that . now , step aside . when your food 's ready , i 'll let you know . next in line ! nick : what 's up ? victor : i have n't seen you since the arrest . how are you doing ? nick : i 'm fine . just doing damage control . victor : mm , yeah , the media did quite a hatchet job on your new company . nick : yeah . it did . figured you were behind that . turned me into the cops and then leaked the story . victor : i could see why you would think that , but i would n't want to do that . nick : good to know . so , what is this , a well - being check ? victor : i had a meeting with that new cop in town . what 's his name , uh , rey -- rey ... ? nick : rosales . victor : oh , yeah , rosales . yeah . nick : yeah , whose idea was that ? victor : well , he asked me to come to the police station , you know ? he wanted to find out what i knew about j.t . hellstrom 's disappearance . and how all the people involved intersected . nick : you did n't buy it ? victor : no . he was on a phishing expedition . he wanted to know about our relationship . nick : yeah , he made a point of asking me about you , as well . victor : mm - hmm . nick : i think he 's either intrigued by us or confused . i do n't know , there 's a lot of layers to get through . victor : that 's putting it mildly , is n't it ? nick : but as complex as our relationship is , i know it 's better than what you had with your dad . victor : what brought up that man ? nick : i was talking to jack yesterday about his search for his biological father , and he mentioned that sons like to compare themselves against their father , and he brought up you and albert . victor : mm . hope you told him that albert miller is not worth the breath he spent talking about him . nick : i was n't that kind . hopefully i gave jack some food for thought . victor : good . jack : billy ! billy : hey . jack : you got a minute for a drink , or are you here for a meeting ? billy : uh , no , i 'm just grabbing some takeout and heading back to the office , but i 'll join you for a drink . jack : so , do n't take this the wrong way . you look a little beat . billy : [ sighs ] good eye . jack : so we 're both having a rough day . what 's going on with you ? billy : debating an opportunity that would n't make sense to anyone else , but , in my gut , feels like the right thing to do . jack : so , have you thought this thing through , or is this another one of your notorious impulses ? on a scale of slam - dunk to `` this could blow up in my face , `` where exactly does this opportunity fall ? nick : you want me to hire tessa ? mariah : she needs to make more money . nick : you know , i could use some help on a short - term project we 're working on right now . it 's pretty menial stuff , though , making deliveries to a tech company that 's doing some work for us , some filing is definitely piling up . would she be willing to work nights , even late sometimes ? mariah : i think that she would be thrilled . when can she start , tomorrow ? nick : how about tonight ? mariah : that is even better . i 'm gon na text her right away . thank you so much . nick : sure . lola : 102 and 103 ! enjoy . thank you . kyle : thanks . by the way , it 's kyle . since i 'll be here a lot , you might as well know my name . lola : yeah . lola . there 's another customer . kyle : [ chuckles ] sorry . i 'll get out of your way . till next time , lola . rey : after hearing all about your truck , i had to come see it myself . lola : you 're just in time . i was about to close . rey : i 'm proud of you , sis . starting your own business , that takes guts . lola : that means a lot . rey : how 'd you get the truck ? it must have been expensive . lola : it was a hunk of junk when i bought it , which is why it was a bargain . arturo helped me remodel it . rey : is it up to code ? lola : yes . rey : and you have all the necessary permits ? lola : of course . rey : well , i hope you 're parking in safe neighborhoods and only working during daytime hours . you 're all alone . you have all this cash on you -- lola : this is why i moved in with arturo . he gives me credit that i know what i 'm doing . you 've always treated me like an incompetent child . rey : no , no , no . i was only strict because i was trying to protect you . lola : i was a social outcast because of your stupid rules . i 've spent the last couple of years going to midnight movies and dance clubs and dating guys , doing all of the things you would n't let me do , and -- surprise ! -- nothing bad has happened . now i need to close up . rey : are you dating someone ? because , if you are , i would like to meet him . lola : oh , my god . it 's like talking into a catcher 's mitt . you do n't even try to listen ! i 'm an adult now . you need to back off . rey : lola . lola ! billy : thank you . billy : you 're being a bit cagey with the details . billy : i do n't mean to be . this opportunity might be exactly what i 'm looking for . jack : and no one , including yourself , can get hurt ? billy : no . jack : if that 's the case , i say go for it . what the hell do you care what anyone else thinks ? billy : i think that 's my answer , jack . jack : good . billy : what about you , why are you having such a rotten day ? jack : as you know , i 've been searching for my biological father , and i am at a crossroads . i do n't know whether to dig deeper or just give it all up . billy : i understand you wanting to know your history , jack , i do , but i 'm just not sure about the payoff . i mean , say you find you share dna with some stranger who 's not alive anymore , or potentially did n't even know that you existed , some lowlife guy ? or flipside of that , it 's a great guy , but as good as john abbott ? not possible . so , yeah , there 's upside here , but i see a whole lot of potential downside . jack : you make a lot of sense . billy : then i think you know what you need to do . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . tessa : so , what do you want me to do first ? nick : organize all these papers into files , label them , and then put them into the filing cabinet in the back . tessa : no problem . nick : if you run across a document you do n't understand or you do n't know what do with , just leave it on my desk . in addition , you 're gon na be running a variety of hardware back and forth to a computer security firm we 're doing some work with . here 's the address . tessa : what 's wrong with your computers ? nick : tessa , just do the work . you do n't need to know the details other than we need to remove these files from our servers . tessa : okay . nick : now , my cellphone number is on there , as well . if you come across a problem or anything comes up , you call me . tessa : i will . good night , and , again , uh , nick , i -- i ca n't thank you enough . seriously . you 're saving my life . nick : you 're gon na do great . good luck . tessa : thanks . [ giggles , squeals ] [ humming ] gloria : [ sighs ] billy : gloria . gloria : ah ! hello . i finished everything on your list , and now i 'm going home and pouring myself a big glass of wine . billy : i need you to take care of one thing before you take off . i 'm sorry to do this . gloria : [ sighs ] billy : this is a confidential wire transfer from the jabot account . gloria : to ? billy : the transaction needs to clear by 11 : 00 tonight . this is the amount , and this right here is the routing number . gloria : okay . and that is quite a chunk of change . who 's this going to ? the fifth race at belmont ? billy : not remotely funny . gloria : it really was n't meant to be , billy . billy : it 's to pay off a business loan with one of our banks . the deadline crept up on me . thank you . have a good night . gloria : okay . [ exhales sharply ] summer : i do n't know , i thought that kyle and i were friends who could taunt and tease and play around , but ... i do n't know , it meant something different to him than it did to me . phyllis : he still has feelings for you . summer : yeah , but how was i supposed to know that ? and now he barely wants anything to do with me . phyllis : i 'm very sorry . i know how painful this is for you . and all i can say is you have got to give it some time , you know , and you ca n't stop reaching out to him . gently . and , you know , this is n't about what you want . this is about what kyle 's feeling and the damage to the relationship , i mean , so just go easy . capisce ? summer : right . got it . thanks for the drink . i should probably get going , though . phyllis : hang on , hang on , hang on . i thought you were willing to take my advice . summer : yeah , i was . until i remembered who i was talking to , the woman that puts herself first always when it comes to men , who really does n't care how she treats them . phyllis : i 'm sorry , i 'm trying to build a bridge here . that 's something a lot of mothers would n't do to daughters who went after their boyfriends . summer : oh , well , do you want a medal for that , or ... ? phyllis : uh , i think a little cooperation would be nice . i still do n't really understand why you could do what you did to me . summer : mom , i -- phyllis : no , you know what , let 's talk about it . let 's talk about it because i 'd like to know why . summer : fine . in the beginning , it was just because i was attracted to billy . i wanted him . so i treated it like a game to see if i could make it happen . phyllis : [ laughs ] okay . okay , that 's great . so then what ? what , you just keep throwing yourself at a man that i 'm in love with ? why would you want to try to break us up ? summer : well , i did n't realize it then . maybe i just could n't admit it to myself , but ... i just wanted to hurt you . jack : [ exhales sharply ] [ doorbell rings ] victor : so , i understand that you 're prying into my family business . jack : i 'm interested in my family tree , not yours . victor : cut the crap , will you ? apparently , there was a picture on gc buzz that made you think that you saw your father in it . got news for you -- that was a picture of albert miller , my father . now , what makes you think that you 're the son of that man , based on an old photo ? jack : a photo that was taken at the genoa city country club , where my mother claims she met the man who fathered me . all of the other candidates in that picture have been eliminated . victor : oh , i see , so you 're basing your ludicrous theory on nothing . jack : it seems like quite a coincidence to me that dina 's and albert 's paths crossed just when she got pregnant with me . victor : that 's delusional thinking . jack : is it ? you know , one thing is clear to me . the reason you 're here , the reason you 're working so hard to disabuse me of this idea is that you 're having a little trouble not believing it yourself . tessa : hello ? anybody there ? [ footsteps approaching ] tessa : i 'm armed ! stay away ! mariah : hi . tessa : [ sighs ] woman , you scared the crap out of me ! i thought you were an intruder . i was ready to attack . mariah : what were you gon na do , staple me to death ? tessa : well , i had to improvise . mariah : well , i 'm sorry that i spooked you . tessa : no , it 's -- i 'm , uh , just a little on edge . mariah : yeah , i figured you would be anxious , working here alone , so i decided to come keep you company , and i brought supper . tessa : you are so sweet . it seems like i just take , take , take , and you just keep giving . mariah : that is not true . you give me so much . tessa : i do ? mariah : yes . you make me happy , you make me laugh , and you make me feel loved . which means more to me than anything . rey : lola ! almost did n't recognize you . i 'm not used to seeing you outside your truck . lola : how was your dinner ? kyle : highlight of my day . lola : you gon na dream about my food again tonight ? kyle : that depends . lola : on what ? kyle : whether you let me buy you a cup of coffee . lola : coffee , no . double espresso , however ... kyle : a woman who knows what she wants . lola : [ chuckles ] kyle : i like that . so , should i get it to go , or will you join me ? lola : depends . kyle : on ? lola : are you gon na ask me out , or what ? phyllis : i still do n't understand why you wanted to punish me . have i ever done anything to you to justify you betraying me like that ? summer : not directly . but you lie and cheat and manipulate -- phyllis : oh , we have been over this before , summer . summer : it does n't mean that it just went away . you know , every time that you do some terrible thing , it seems like you always have an explanation for it . i guess i just kind of got used to it . and you 're my mom , so automatically every time i was on your side , even if i had to twist my brain in a pretzel to make it happen . and then , you know , i finally put some distance between us , and i started seeing things in a new light . and what you did to jack by sneaking around with billy is -- phyllis : okay , i agree with you . summer : oh , yeah , i mean , i would sure hope so . and ... i know that my grandpa did things that really screwed with your head . and your marriage . and you went through hell , and i felt so badly for both of you . but jack still loved you more than anything , and he was willing to do anything to make it work , and that still was n't enough for you . phyllis : our marriage was in shambles . we were both just broken people . i did n't know how to fix it . summer : then you should have had the decency to walk away instead of sleeping with his brother . and now you say that billy is your one - and - only , but you cheated on him , too , and you think it 's okay because you guys were `` on a break ? `` and then you made up with him right afterwards ? mom , you need to wake up because it is not okay . you constantly trash people 's hearts , and you are always hurting everyone around you . i do n't -- phyllis : i seriously had no idea that you had all this pent - up anger and resentment towards me . do you still love me ? summer : you 're my mom . yes , i still love you . but i do n't think that our relationship is ever gon na be the same again . kyle : i was working up to asking you out . i wanted to savor the anticipation . lola : well , you do n't want to wait too long , do you ? kyle : would you like to go on a date with me ? lola : let me get back to you . kyle : is that a yes ? lola : what do you think ? kyle : give your number . i 'll type it into my contacts . lola : i 'll think about where i want to go , text you a couple ideas . am i being too pushy ? kyle : no way . i 'd much rather take you to some place you want to be . guarantees our evening will start out right . lola : thanks again for the espresso . i 'll look forward to our date . gloria : hey ! wire transfer went through . billy : wonderful . thank you , thank you very , very much . enjoy the rest of your evening . gloria : oh , i intend to , and hopefully next time , something this important , you wo n't wait till the last minute . billy : you do n't have to worry about that . there 's not gon na be a next time . gloria : okay . good night , boss . billy : night ! phyllis : you were right before . things will never be the same between us . but i do n't want them to be . i -- honey , i want them to be better . i really do . i really want us to find a way to forgive each other and move on . summer : you really think that that 's possible ? phyllis : i do . i do . it 's gon na take some time because i think the two of us have some serious baggage . but the way we begin to forgive each other , it starts with honesty and understanding . and i think this is the most real conversation we 've had since you 've been back , and i appreciate that . i know it 's been difficult , but i feel like this is a step forward . i think this is a good step , and i 'm really grateful for that . thank you . victor : [ chuckles ] you must despise the idea that you and i are related as much as i do . jack : as you 're so fond of saying , `` you got that right . `` victor : mm - hmm . so then why are you pursuing this , hmm ? you trying to claim a stake in my company ? i built that company from the ground up . albert miller had nothing to do with it . and the last thing i will ever do is allow you to claim another stake in newman enterprises . jack : i am merely looking for the truth . this is where the truth led me . victor : really ? you would n't know the truth if it bit you in the ass . jack : you know what , i was just gon na drop this , forget all about it . now i have reconsidered . judging from your reaction , i guess i 'm on the right path . victor : albert miller is burning in hell , and i will ask the devil to turn up the flames . you do not take one step closer to my legacy , to my family . jack : just try and stop me .Summarize.[/INST]lola argues with rey because he does n't want to treat her like an adult and later she has coffee with kyle and persudes him to ask her out on a date . rey questions victor about jt but victir remains tight lipped and later victoir goes to nick 's office and tells him rey has nothing on the jt case but they should still be careful and nick tells victir that he thinks he persudes jack tostop looking for his biological father by telling him stories aboutbut he tells albert miller . tessa tells mariah about her attack but only because mariah asks for the truth after she sees the bruises on tessa 's arms . mariah gets tessa a job working for nick hoping that with two jobs they can pay off the money she owes to those men that helped tessa relocate crystal . phyllis worries about billy after he tells her about all the money he lost . but billy assures her he has everything under control . billy transfers money from a jabot account to pay the money he owes but he tells gloria that it is to pay off a jabot business deal . victor tells jack that he wo n't get a stake in newman entrprises because he built the company on his own and albert miller had nothing to do with it . jack tells victor he was going to drohe camp everything and leave it alone but his reaction makes him think he is on the right track so he wo n't stop until he can find out if albert miller is his father . summer tells phyllis he wanted to break up her relationship with billy because she is attracted to him but now she knows its because she does n't like how she makes a mess of her life and hurts people and does n't seem to learn from her mistakes . phyllis wants to mend their relationship but summer says their relationship wo n't be the same again .</s>

[ sighs ] i 'm sorry . i - i should n't be trashing your new son - in- law mac : you think i 'm happy about this ? i think they 're rushing into this marriage , too . not to mention the legal gray area she 's in with immigration . but felicia made me see that we need to support her decision , even though i think it 's a disastrous one . nathan : for what it 's worth , i have some idea what your support means to maxie . mac : i appreciate you looking out for maxie 's best interests . you 've been a good friend to her , nathan . nathan : look , if i 'm being perfectly honest , sir , those were n't my only reasons for wanting to stop maxie from marrying levi . mac : what do you mean ? nathan : the truth is ... i have feelings for your daughter . [ scene_break ] felicia : okay . you can turn around now . levi : you still look absolutely stunning . almost as beautiful as your mother . felicia : oh , thank you . levi : that ring is a stunner . felicia : hmm . levi : is this aztec , as well ? felicia : so are the earrings . levi : oh , very striking . felicia : most of my family 's aztec treasure is in a museum in mexico . i got to keep two of the pieces -- this and the scepter , but the scepter was n't really practical , so i made it into two pieces -- the earrings and that necklace . levi : this would be the necklace you wore to the nurses ' ball ? felicia : yeah , it used to complete the set . levi : used to ? felicia : i gave it away . maxie : you did what ? levi : gave it away ? felicia : i traded it for this . [ scene_break ] lulu : but if this is n't a good time ... dante : no , no , it 's fine . you know , i was just gon na clock out . nathan can take care of this stuff . what 's up ? lulu : dr. chu called me . my labs came in . dante : already ? you were just there yesterday . lulu : yeah , she put a rush on them . and my fsh and my amh levels checked out . dante : that means what ? lulu : that means that i 've been given the all - clear . if we want to start making another little falconeri , we can start right now . [ scene_break ] ava : franco ? franco : um , yeah , i - i , uh , kind of got to go . ava : you have company ? well , just know that my offer still stands . and one day you 'll realize that sonny will always be a problem for you and carly . franco : i 'm hanging up . um , if you 're thinking of shooting me here , i should point out that there 's probably working security cameras . sonny : why would i need to take you out , franco ? you assured me you 're gon na keep your mouth shut about aj . franco : well , i do n't need to keep my mouth shut about aj . , right , because you 're keeping your distance from carly , right ? [ scene_break ] carly : i spoke with your father . he told me he came by here to check on you and alice and that you guys had a difficult conversation . morgan : what do you expect ? he slept with my girlfriend . but apparently , uh , ava moved out of his place . carly : she did ? morgan : yeah . not that that changes anything , 'cause we still do n't know who the baby 's dad is . did he honestly think we were just gon na hug it out and everything was gon na be fine ? carly : no . no , i do n't think anybody thought that , you know ? it 's an awful situation . it really is . i 'm worried about you . i know you 're not talking to your dad . but you 're not really talking to me , either . and you moved out , and i just do n't know what you 're thinking . i do n't know what 's going on with you . morgan : i mean , i just want to put all this behind me , honestly , but i ca n't . i mean , i could be the baby 's dad , or maybe just its brother , but i do n't know what 's going on , so i ca n't move on . i ca n't real do anything . you know , at least with alice , i felt like -- like i was useful , like -- like someone needed me . carly : we all need you . morgan : i do n't know , mom . i - i do n't even know who i am . i do n't know what 's expected of me . you know , my whole life , i feel like i 've just kind of been in the way . carly : never been in the way . never have you been in the way . and you are a wonderful , kind , loving man , and you 're just going through a really tough time right now . morgan : i just want to be a good dad , and -- and if not , i just want to be a better brother than i 've been , you know . but it 's just -- it 's the not knowing that 's just -- it 's driving me absolutely crazy . carly : i 'm sorry . i 'm so sorry , and i wish i could fix this for you . morgan : i know . but you ca n't . carly : [ sniffles ] morgan : i got to go , mom . i got to check on alice , okay ? alright , bye . carly : okay . [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] franco : you are keeping your distance from carly , right ? sonny : well , maybe morgan needs a wake - up call just like you do . carly : i do n't know what you mean . sonny : well , i think you do . see , you 've been -- you 've been lying to yourself this whole time , right ? i 've been letting you . i think you just need to ... wake up . sonny : i do n't , uh , discuss my ex - wife with you . i do n't tell you why i 'm talking to her , when i 'm talking to her . if that makes you paranoid , oh , well . franco : i 'm not gon na play this game with you , sonny . carly and i , we got nothing to worry about . sonny : but you do sound a little worried . listen , if you 're insecure about your relationship with carly , there 's not much i can do about it . anyway , have a good time . uh , i 'll talk to you later franco : yeah , i hope so , 'cause i love a good heart - to - heart . we should do it again soon . [ scene_break ] morgan : i mean , alice has got a lengthy recovery ahead of her , but she 's gon na make it . she 'll be fine . of course . i will definitely give her your best , mr. otunga . david . and -- and thank you again for stopping by . honestly , that -- that really cheered her up . all right . bye . [ scene_break ] guard : miss jerome . ava : yep ? guard : you have a visitor . ava : oh , that was quick . send him in . [ door opens ] ava : well , i have to admit , i did n't expect you to come to your senses so soon . carly : really ? ava : you . carly : expecting someone else ? [ scene_break ] nina : hi , there . franco : hey . nina : hey . franco : hi . nina : you okay ? franco : yeah . i 'm okay . why would n't i be okay ? nina : i do n't know , but that conversation -- it did n't upset you ? franco : no . what conversation ? nina : the conversation with the man in the suit . he 's a very sharp dresser . he 's very intense . franco : yes , he is . that 's carly 's ex , sonny corinthos . go ahead . nina : `` go ahead , `` what ? franco : go ahead , be impressed . everybody else is . he 's some kind of a gangster . he 's the gangster , according to him . he 's run this town for like 20 years . nina : so , that 's why it makes you nervous with carly hanging around him all the -- franco : no , not at all . guy makes me mad , that 's all . he just -- he thinks he 's better than me , and he always refers to carly as his ex - wife , and then he expects her to come running every time he says `` jump , `` and i 'm -- no , i 'm not nervous . why would i be ? carly 's keeping her distance from him . nina : yeah , see , um ... except , uh ... franco : `` except , uh `` ? nina : [ chuckles ] except , uh ... are -- are you sure those two are n't involved ? [ scene_break ] dante : that 's amazing news . lulu : i know . i mean , i knew that the odds were in our favor , but it 's exciting to hear it made official . dante : yeah . so , whenever we 're ready to have another kid , you will be , too . lulu : right . right , yeah . i mean , obviously we 're gon na need to talk about the timing . dante : mm - hmm . lulu : i mean , i was just thinking that if we want to keep them close -- rocco 's almost 1 . even if we started right now , he would be almost 2 before he had a little sister or brother . dante : right now ? lulu : dr. chu mentioned that she had a cancellation . i could see her tomorrow . dante : tomorrow ? lulu : [ chuckles ] not that we have to rush into anything . the embryo is in cold storage , so we can basically time this out -- whatever 's best for both of us . maybe we want a summer baby . or -- or maybe we want to think about when the best time would be so you can take a couple weeks off . honestly , a winter baby 's probably best for me . it 's the haunted star 's off season . dante : you want to do this tomorrow , do n't you ? [ scene_break ] mac : you have feelings for maxie ? nathan : yeah , they -- they kind of snuck up on me . and i had talked to my sister about coming down here to fight for maxie , but if she 's getting married today , then that 's it . she 's made up her mind . mac : maxie ? she has n't thought this through . she 's just trying to keep levi from getting deported . nathan : are you trying to say she does n't love him ? mac : well , honestly , i do n't know how she feels about him . look , maxie has a tendency to run on guilt , and there 's a reason for that , given her history . she 's made more than her share of mistakes . so right now , i think she 's focused on the idea of saving levi . i do n't think she 's actually considered the fact that she 's marrying a guy she barely knows . nathan : you do n't like him ? mac : well , to be fair , i really do n't know him . but i will say this -- there 's something off there . nathan : what do you mean ? mac : the guy is way too charming . he tells everyone what they want to hear . maxie goes to find herself . who pops up ? levi -- who reinforces every doubt she 's ever had about herself . she wants to be more socially conscious , pushes her into picketing a worthy project and almost gets arrested . nathan : yeah . i got to say , none of that made any sense . mac : i mean , he 's living off her . you know that . nathan : i know . i know . mac : he 'd argue he ca n't apply for a job with his visa in question . nathan : well , if he 'd just file for an extension , there would n't be any problems . mac : none of this is good . he 's just leeching all the joy out of her life and somehow making her think that she 's responsible for it , that it 's all her idea . you know , maxie used to beg me to make her mac and cheese , and now she 's a vegan . and this -- he keeps pandering to felicia 's aztec heritage . [ scene_break ] maxie : mom , you could have bought an entire camera company for what that necklace was worth . felicia : it 's a long story . maxie : i do n't care how -- how long it is . you got rooked ! i mean , that necklace was priceless . felicia : well , the -- the camera used to belong to a guy named paul murphy . he was a reporter for the port charles press . and i gave him the necklace because -- well , i was trying to protect a friend . i mean , that 's really all i can say about that . levi : in the end , the necklace is just a thing , whereas your friend is a person . felicia : well , that 's what i thought about it . levi : your mother is a dream come true . i am so proud to be joining your family . maxie : [ chuckles ] levi : speaking of which , i ca n't marry you until i try on my tux . [ chuckles ] maxie : [ sighs ] felicia : maxie ... there 's still time to call off the wedding if you want to . as sweet as he is , you 've only known levi for a couple of months . no one would blame you if you change your mind . are you sure you 're ready for this ? [ scene_break ] nathan : so , you 're trying to tell me you think levi has an agenda ? mac : when i left policing , i told myself i was n't gon na do that anymore -- look for motives . nathan : it 's a hard habit to kick . mac : yeah , it is , but , uh , now i give the other guy a chance . nathan : understood . mac : it 's just ... it 's my little girl , you know ? i do n't want her hurt . [ sighs ] and that guy charms his way into getting what he wants . nathan : yeah , and -- and he wanted maxie . but i guess he 's who she wanted , too . i 'm sorry . i do n't want to keep you . i know you -- mac : you know what ? are you sure you do n't want to come with me ? you know , maybe you can talk to maxie , tell her how you feel . it 's not too late . nathan : no , i think that 'd be rude at this point . i mean , selfish , even . i do n't want to ruin her big day . and besides , i do n't think crashing a wedding is my style . mac : [ chuckles ] boy , did you come to the wrong town . anyway , if you change your mind , we 'll be at the haunted star . it 's not too late . nathan : but i - i am late for my shift . [ scene_break ] maxie : you know , i really wish people would stop second - guessing me . i know what i want . i love levi , and we 're getting married . that 's it . felicia : honey , i 'm not saying that you do n't love him . it 's just a very short engagement . i mean , we did n't even have time to have a shower or plan a reception or any of the fun stuff . and i know that if you postpone the wedding -- maxie : levi would be deported . felicia : mm - hmm . maxie : and , yes , that pushes things up a little bit . but that does n't change how i feel . levi is the man that i want to marry . he 's good and kind and thoughtful . and i 'm not gon na lose him after what he did for me . felicia : he 's been very supportive . maxie : supportive . mom , when i met levi , i was miserable and full of regret . i spent every minute of every day thinking of all the mistakes i had made . i knew i wanted to start over . i knew i wanted to be a better person , but i did n't know how , and ... levi showed me how to do that . felicia : so he 's the one . maxie : of course , he 's the one . i would n't be marrying him if he was n't . felicia : oh , maxie , that 's just what i wanted to hear . i want you to have this . [ scene_break ] lulu : of course , i want another baby . [ chuckles ] but i want this to be a good experience for our family . i do n't want us to be overwhelmed . you know , we both work so hard , and we 're just getting our foot in with rocco . i - i want us to have time for us . i do n't want rocco to get lost in the shuffle . dante : well , there 's not much chance of that happening with my mother around . lulu : she 's the best . she 's been picking up the slack , you know ? she 'd love another grandchild . not that we 'd do it for her . dante : no . lulu : just do it whenever the time 's right for us . dante : you know , if there 's one thing i realized about this job is , uh , the minute you try and plan anything , life just steps in . lulu : what do you mean ? dante : what i mean is , why -- why do people have kids ? lulu : because they love each other ? dante : right . and right now , i love you more than anything . let 's do it . let 's go for it . lulu : you mean it ? dante : i do mean it . call dr. chu , get the appointment . [ scene_break ] franco : sonny and carly are not together in the biblical sense . nina : `` biblical sense . `` things have gotten quaint since i was in a coma . franco : it just means it 's not a physical relationship . it is kind of an emotional relationship , though . and by that , i mean , you know , whenever sonny gets himself into a jam , carly drops everything and runs to the rescue . nina : sounds co - dependent . franco : i - i despise that phrase , really . honestly , you 're together , right ? does n't that mean that you depend on -- on one another ? is that something that people even said before you went into your coma ? nina : no , they did n't . they did n't , but when i came out of the coma , i went to a therapist , and i just -- just read all of the pamphlets in his office . franco : right , so now you 're an expert . nina : well , no , i mean , it just sounds unhealthy . franco : so why not just call it unhealthy ? nina : okay . franco : they 're friends , okay ? they have two children together , and when i 'm not , you know , in a jealous rage , i can see that really clearly . nina : it must be so , so difficult watching her run to his side . franco : no . carly 's promised me that she was gon na keep her distance from sonny , and she 's doing a great job . nina : you sure about that ? [ scene_break ] ava : carly , what brings you by ? did sonny tell you i moved out ? carly : yeah , by way of the hospital roof . ava : so , why are you here ? does sonny miss me ? carly : i 'm here for morgan . ava : is he all right ? carly : no . you sideswiped him with a pregnancy . and i realize this baby is an insurance policy for you , but it means something to morgan . you already hurt him by sleeping with sonny . now he ca n't move on until he finds out if he 's the father . ava : well , frankly , i sympathize . i 'm curious myself . but there 's not much i can do until after i deliver . carly : you 're wrong . here . here 's your purse . ava : do you need a loan ? carly : we 're going to the hospital . you 're taking a paternity test . [ scene_break ] sonny : before you leave , how 's -- how 's alice ? morgan : [ sighs ] we got lucky , found her a heart . sonny : that 's great . so the transplant took ? morgan : yeah , she made it through surgery . i guess we 'll know in a couple days if she rejects the heart . monica 's watching her . sonny : so far , so good . morgan : if there is n't anything else ... sonny : yeah , there is . i want to talk to you about , uh , ava . morgan : she moved out . i know . michael told me . sonny : he said he would . morgan : where she lives does n't change anything . sonny : this is not about where she lives . it 's ... i want to tell you the truth about what happened with ava and me . [ scene_break ] dante : [ sighs ] lulu : hey . looking sharp , detective dante : yeah , i got to take my wife to a wedding . i got to pull out all the stops , you know ? lulu : well , i do n't care how happy maxie is today . nobody 's happier than you and me . nathan : nice suit . dante : hey . it 's about time you got here . nathan : yeah , look , i 'm sorry , man . i had something i needed to do . dante : you all right ? nathan : yeah , i 'm fine . lulu : we should go . dante : yeah . uh , i got to go , man . i got to go this , uh , event . nathan : maxie 's wedding ? i heard . have fun . lulu : nathan , i know that you 've had some misgivings about this wedding , and we did , too , but we love maxie , and ... dante : just we got to be there to support her , man . nathan : of course . hey , listen , i - i just want her to be happy . [ scene_break ] maxie : mom , you love that ring . felicia : and i 've always known that when you married the man that you love , that i would give you this ring . it 's been passed down from mother and daughter for generations , and someday you 'll give it to georgie . maxie : it 's too much . felicia : i knew from the moment you were born that i was gon na give you this ring when you married the man that you love , and you love levi . maxie : i ca n't take that ring , mom . felicia : well , of course , you can . unless you can think of some reason why you should n't . maxie : i guess not . felicia : maxie , you 're my daughter , and i trust you to make the right choices for your life and for your heart . that 's why i 'm giving you this ring . no conditions . maxie : you know , if you keep giving away all your aztec jewelry , you 're not gon na have any left . felicia : i still have my earrings . maxie : you 're still too generous . felicia : this is your day , maxie . i would n't have it any other way . [ sobs ] [ scene_break ] franco : how could you know anything about sonny and carly ? you did n't even know who he was until i told you . nina : that 's right . i do n't know that man . i 'm not trying to suggest anything . it 's just you 've been nice to me , and i like talking to you . and i know you 're in love with your girlfriend . and , um , i 'm being overly protective . franco : of what ? nina : um , just you -- i just want to make sure that carly is earning the trust that you are showing her . franco : what trust ? what -- what -- nina : no , i do n't know . that 's -- that 's a poor choice of words . franco : hold on a second . then -- then , you know , maybe ... go ahead . just rephrase the question . nina : i would -- i would like to drop the subject . franco : nina , what is it you 're not telling me ? [ scene_break ] sonny : i 'm not gon na excuse what happened with ava , all right ? i 've apologized a hundred times . but you -- you -- you 've asked me to explain how it happened . morgan : right , and you would n't tell me . sonny : i could n't . and i still ca n't , not the whole thing . in my life , you know what it means when i say it 's life and death , right ? morgan : so , what ? was screwing ava a matter of life and death ? sonny : i 'm just trying to tell you why . i did n't want to hurt you any more than i already did , and i - i was trying to protect you . morgan : protect me from what ? sonny : the fallout from my actions . i crossed a line that i can never come back from . [ scene_break ] ava : well , you have a hell of a nerve coming here and telling me what i should do with my body . carly : hey , i 'm the last person you need to lecture about reproductive rights . but morgan has rights , too . he needs to know if he 's the father , and you 're far along enough for an amnio , so let 's go . ava : not a chance . [ scene_break ] morgan : okay . would n't be the first time , so -- so what -- what did you do ? sonny : there 's nothing i 'd love more than to tell you the whole truth , but i ca n't tell you the whole thing , because i do n't want -- it 's not fair to you , and i do n't want to put a burden on you . morgan : that does n't even make sense . why are we even having this conversation if you ca n't tell me anything ? sonny : give me a break here , morgan . i 'm trying , son . ava used you to get to me in the organization . i think you know that . you 're not the only one . she played me for months , and she goaded me into doing something terrible . and then she held it over my head . morgan : so , what are you saying ? you 're saying that -- that she blackmailed you into sleeping with her ? sonny : no , i 'm just trying to tell you why . ava ... used herself as a witness to isolate me . she was the only one i could talk to at the time , the only one i could tell about how i felt , and she pulled me in . that 's why when you -- when you walked in and you saw us together . she -- she -- she set a trap , and i walked right in . morgan : so , then why -- why did you move her in , dad ? sonny : because when i realized that she set me up and that she was pregnant , i did n't have another option . i could n't just let her run away or do something worse . but i did n't want any part of her . and i did n't want to hurt you any more than i did . morgan : so , what ? you move her in anyway ? sonny : not to be a family or to throw a betrayal in your face . i needed to know ... every move she was gon na make . [ scene_break ] carly : do you enjoy torturing morgan ? oh , i get it . you 're afraid sonny 's gon na be the father , and your hold on morgan will be gone . ava : a paternity test on an unborn child is very invasive . carly : they do it all the time . ava : maybe where you come from . carly : [ scoffs ] ava : i 'm not willing to risk it . and what if the baby is morgan 's ? how could you ever face him if i miscarried because you were impatient ? carly : you do n't have to worry . you 're never , ever gon na face him again , period . ava : [ chuckles ] do you honestly expect me to leave the safety of this penthouse ? if i stepped out of here , sonny would have me grabbed in a heartbeat . i 'm not going anywhere . i 'm gon na stay right here until after i deliver this baby . and until then , even the doctors will be making house calls . carly : wow . so who gives a damn about morgan , right ? you 're just gon na let him twist in the wind till you give birth . so much for loving him . ava : why do n't you worry a little less about my relationship with morgan and a little more about yours with franco ? [ scene_break ] franco : do n't do that to me . nina : do what ? franco : well , imply that you know something about carly and sonny and then stop talking altogether . you just finished telling me that you enjoy talking to me , right ? nina : i did say that . franco : okay , withholding information -- that 's not nice . nina : [ scoffs ] what makes you assume i 'm nice ? franco : well , i think you 're nice when you 're trying to get something . i think you 're just like everybody else in this world . you 're nice when you 're trying to get what you want , because everybody likes to get what they want . nina : and you know that . franco : it 's a gift . nina : it 's a gift ? oh , okay . well , you 're right . i do like to get what i want . definitely . but it does n't mean i know some secret about your girlfriend and her ex . franco : okay , look , you do n't know me that well . and i do n't mean to drag you into the mess of my life . but this last year of my life , i feel like my life has changed radically . nina : yeah , it has for me , too . franco : i 'm trying to live a more mindful life , but that would be really hard for me if i felt like somebody was doing something behind my back . you understand ? nina : [ sighs ] mm - hmm . i do . franco : so , why do n't you tell me what it is that you know ? [ scene_break ] mac : i hope i 'm not interrupting . felicia : oh , get in here . [ laughs ] mac : [ groans ] nothing like being hugged by two beautiful women . maxie : i 'm really glad you 're here . i thought you were gon na boycott this wedding . mac : i would n't miss it for the world . maxie : does that mean you 're gon na give levi and me your blessing ? mac : um , felicia , would you give maxie and me a minute alone , please ? maxie : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] dante : i 'll , uh , check in with you after ? nathan : i got this . i got this . get out of here . go to a wedding . lulu : yeah , he 's right . dante : all right . see you . paul : where 's the commissioner ? ! nathan : i 'm sorry . can i help you ? paul : somebody just broke into my house and hit me over the head ! nathan : okay , i 'm sorry , sir . then you should have called 911 . paul : i do n't want some beat cop dealing with this ! do you know who i am ? ! i 'm a headliner with the port charles press , and something extremely valuable was just stolen from my house ! now , i want the commissioner ! nathan : sir , i 'm sorry , but she 's not in . and while i 'm confident at our `` beat cops `` are capable , i 'm a detective , and i can help you . what was stolen ? paul : my aztec necklace . [ scene_break ] sonny : i realize the little i 've been able to tell you does n't fix everything . but i - i thought you deserved the truth -- some of it , anyway . so you do n't , you know , put yourself in jeopardy . morgan : all right . well , i mean , this does n't change what happened . you know , it does n't change what 's going to happen . i mean , ava 's still gon na have a baby . could be mine , could be yours . sonny : i know . i know . but i thought we could , you know , accept the facts as they are , and we can still stay a family . morgan : right , well , it 's like you said , it does n't fix everything . sonny : [ sighs ] morgan : but i do -- i appreciate you offering me this much . i got to go . uh , i got to go check on alice . sonny : give her my best . morgan : thank you for -- for telling me this .

[ scene_break ] ava : face it , franco . you get me that recording , and it will benefit us both . franco : i do n't need your help getting sonny out of carly 's life , because sonny is already out of carly 's life .

[ scene_break ] nathan : maxie 's getting married today ? mac : come on in . apparently you did n't see the announcement . nathan : yeah , i guess not . this is happening sooner than i thought . mac : well , apparently diane advised they do it asap because of levi 's immigration issues . nathan : yeah , yeah , i can see how that could work for levi . i just hope it works for maxie . [ sighs ] i 'm sorry . i - i should n't be trashing your new son - in- law mac : you think i 'm happy about this ? i think they 're rushing into this marriage , too . not to mention the legal gray area she 's in with immigration . but felicia made me see that we need to support her decision , even though i think it 's a disastrous one . nathan : for what it 's worth , i have some idea what your support means to maxie . mac : i appreciate you looking out for maxie 's best interests . you 've been a good friend to her , nathan . nathan : look , if i 'm being perfectly honest , sir , those were n't my only reasons for wanting to stop maxie from marrying levi . mac : what do you mean ? nathan : the truth is ... i have feelings for your daughter .

[ scene_break ] carly : i spoke with your father . he told me he came by here to check on you and alice and that you guys had a difficult conversation . morgan : what do you expect ? he slept with my girlfriend . but apparently , uh , ava moved out of his place . carly : she did ? morgan : yeah . not that that changes anything , 'cause we still do n't know who the baby 's dad is . did he honestly think we were just gon na hug it out and everything was gon na be fine ? carly : no . no , i do n't think anybody thought that , you know ? it 's an awful situation . it really is . i 'm worried about you . i know you 're not talking to your dad . but you 're not really talking to me , either . and you moved out , and i just do n't know what you 're thinking . i do n't know what 's going on with you . morgan : i mean , i just want to put all this behind me , honestly , but i ca n't . i mean , i could be the baby 's dad , or maybe just its brother , but i do n't know what 's going on , so i ca n't move on . i ca n't real do anything . you know , at least with alice , i felt like -- like i was useful , like -- like someone needed me . carly : we all need you . morgan : i do n't know , mom . i - i do n't even know who i am . i do n't know what 's expected of me . you know , my whole life , i feel like i 've just kind of been in the way . carly : never been in the way . never have you been in the way . and you are a wonderful , kind , loving man , and you 're just going through a really tough time right now . morgan : i just want to be a good dad , and -- and if not , i just want to be a better brother than i 've been , you know . but it 's just -- it 's the not knowing that 's just -- it 's driving me absolutely crazy . carly : i 'm sorry . i 'm so sorry , and i wish i could fix this for you . morgan : i know . but you ca n't . carly : [ sniffles ] morgan : i got to go , mom . i got to check on alice , okay ? alright , bye . carly : okay .

[ scene_break ] nina : hi , there . franco : hey . nina : hey . franco : hi . nina : you okay ? franco : yeah . i 'm okay . why would n't i be okay ? nina : i do n't know , but that conversation -- it did n't upset you ? franco : no . what conversation ? nina : the conversation with the man in the suit . he 's a very sharp dresser . he 's very intense . franco : yes , he is . that 's carly 's ex , sonny corinthos . go ahead . nina : `` go ahead , `` what ? franco : go ahead , be impressed . everybody else is . he 's some kind of a gangster . he 's the gangster , according to him . he 's run this town for like 20 years . nina : so , that 's why it makes you nervous with carly hanging around him all the -- franco : no , not at all . guy makes me mad , that 's all . he just -- he thinks he 's better than me , and he always refers to carly as his ex - wife , and then he expects her to come running every time he says `` jump , `` and i 'm -- no , i 'm not nervous . why would i be ? carly 's keeping her distance from him . nina : yeah , see , um ... except , uh ... franco : `` except , uh `` ? nina : [ chuckles ] except , uh ... are -- are you sure those two are n't involved ? [ scene_break ] dante : that 's amazing news . lulu : i know . i mean , i knew that the odds were in our favor , but it 's exciting to hear it made official . dante : yeah . so , whenever we 're ready to have another kid , you will be , too . lulu : right . right , yeah . i mean , obviously we 're gon na need to talk about the timing . dante : mm - hmm . lulu : i mean , i was just thinking that if we want to keep them close -- rocco 's almost 1 . even if we started right now , he would be almost 2 before he had a little sister or brother . dante : right now ? lulu : dr. chu mentioned that she had a cancellation . i could see her tomorrow . dante : tomorrow ? lulu : [ chuckles ] not that we have to rush into anything . the embryo is in cold storage , so we can basically time this out -- whatever 's best for both of us . maybe we want a summer baby . or -- or maybe we want to think about when the best time would be so you can take a couple weeks off . honestly , a winter baby 's probably best for me . it 's the haunted star 's off season . dante : you want to do this tomorrow , do n't you ? [ scene_break ] mac : you have feelings for maxie ? nathan : yeah , they -- they kind of snuck up on me . and i had talked to my sister about coming down here to fight for maxie , but if she 's getting married today , then that 's it . she 's made up her mind . mac : maxie ? she has n't thought this through . she 's just trying to keep levi from getting deported . nathan : are you trying to say she does n't love him ? mac : well , honestly , i do n't know how she feels about him . look , maxie has a tendency to run on guilt , and there 's a reason for that , given her history . she 's made more than her share of mistakes . so right now , i think she 's focused on the idea of saving levi . i do n't think she 's actually considered the fact that she 's marrying a guy she barely knows . nathan : you do n't like him ? mac : well , to be fair , i really do n't know him . but i will say this -- there 's something off there . nathan : what do you mean ? mac : the guy is way too charming . he tells everyone what they want to hear . maxie goes to find herself . who pops up ? levi -- who reinforces every doubt she 's ever had about herself . she wants to be more socially conscious , pushes her into picketing a worthy project and almost gets arrested . nathan : yeah . i got to say , none of that made any sense . mac : i mean , he 's living off her . you know that . nathan : i know . i know . mac : he 'd argue he ca n't apply for a job with his visa in question . nathan : well , if he 'd just file for an extension , there would n't be any problems . mac : none of this is good . he 's just leeching all the joy out of her life and somehow making her think that she 's responsible for it , that it 's all her idea . you know , maxie used to beg me to make her mac and cheese , and now she 's a vegan . and this -- he keeps pandering to felicia 's aztec heritage . [ scene_break ] maxie : mom , you could have bought an entire camera company for what that necklace was worth . felicia : it 's a long story . maxie : i do n't care how -- how long it is . you got rooked ! i mean , that necklace was priceless . felicia : well , the -- the camera used to belong to a guy named paul murphy . he was a reporter for the port charles press . and i gave him the necklace because -- well , i was trying to protect a friend . i mean , that 's really all i can say about that . levi : in the end , the necklace is just a thing , whereas your friend is a person . felicia : well , that 's what i thought about it . levi : your mother is a dream come true . i am so proud to be joining your family . maxie : [ chuckles ] levi : speaking of which , i ca n't marry you until i try on my tux . [ chuckles ] maxie : [ sighs ] felicia : maxie ... there 's still time to call off the wedding if you want to . as sweet as he is , you 've only known levi for a couple of months . no one would blame you if you change your mind . are you sure you 're ready for this ? [ scene_break ] nathan : so , you 're trying to tell me you think levi has an agenda ? mac : when i left policing , i told myself i was n't gon na do that anymore -- look for motives . nathan : it 's a hard habit to kick . mac : yeah , it is , but , uh , now i give the other guy a chance . nathan : understood . mac : it 's just ... it 's my little girl , you know ? i do n't want her hurt . [ sighs ] and that guy charms his way into getting what he wants . nathan : yeah , and -- and he wanted maxie . but i guess he 's who she wanted , too . i 'm sorry . i do n't want to keep you . i know you -- mac : you know what ? are you sure you do n't want to come with me ? you know , maybe you can talk to maxie , tell her how you feel . it 's not too late . nathan : no , i think that 'd be rude at this point . i mean , selfish , even . i do n't want to ruin her big day . and besides , i do n't think crashing a wedding is my style . mac : [ chuckles ] boy , did you come to the wrong town . anyway , if you change your mind , we 'll be at the haunted star . it 's not too late . nathan : but i - i am late for my shift . [ scene_break ] maxie : you know , i really wish people would stop second - guessing me . i know what i want . i love levi , and we 're getting married . that 's it . felicia : honey , i 'm not saying that you do n't love him . it 's just a very short engagement . i mean , we did n't even have time to have a shower or plan a reception or any of the fun stuff . and i know that if you postpone the wedding -- maxie : levi would be deported . felicia : mm - hmm . maxie : and , yes , that pushes things up a little bit . but that does n't change how i feel . levi is the man that i want to marry . he 's good and kind and thoughtful . and i 'm not gon na lose him after what he did for me . felicia : he 's been very supportive . maxie : supportive . mom , when i met levi , i was miserable and full of regret . i spent every minute of every day thinking of all the mistakes i had made . i knew i wanted to start over . i knew i wanted to be a better person , but i did n't know how , and ... levi showed me how to do that . felicia : so he 's the one . maxie : of course , he 's the one . i would n't be marrying him if he was n't . felicia : oh , maxie , that 's just what i wanted to hear . i want you to have this . [ scene_break ] lulu : of course , i want another baby . [ chuckles ] but i want this to be a good experience for our family . i do n't want us to be overwhelmed . you know , we both work so hard , and we 're just getting our foot in with rocco . i - i want us to have time for us . i do n't want rocco to get lost in the shuffle . dante : well , there 's not much chance of that happening with my mother around . lulu : she 's the best . she 's been picking up the slack , you know ? she 'd love another grandchild . not that we 'd do it for her . dante : no . lulu : just do it whenever the time 's right for us . dante : you know , if there 's one thing i realized about this job is , uh , the minute you try and plan anything , life just steps in . lulu : what do you mean ? dante : what i mean is , why -- why do people have kids ? lulu : because they love each other ? dante : right . and right now , i love you more than anything . let 's do it . let 's go for it . lulu : you mean it ? dante : i do mean it . call dr. chu , get the appointment . [ scene_break ] franco : sonny and carly are not together in the biblical sense . nina : `` biblical sense . `` things have gotten quaint since i was in a coma . franco : it just means it 's not a physical relationship . it is kind of an emotional relationship , though . and by that , i mean , you know , whenever sonny gets himself into a jam , carly drops everything and runs to the rescue . nina : sounds co - dependent . franco : i - i despise that phrase , really . honestly , you 're together , right ? does n't that mean that you depend on -- on one another ? is that something that people even said before you went into your coma ? nina : no , they did n't . they did n't , but when i came out of the coma , i went to a therapist , and i just -- just read all of the pamphlets in his office . franco : right , so now you 're an expert . nina : well , no , i mean , it just sounds unhealthy . franco : so why not just call it unhealthy ? nina : okay . franco : they 're friends , okay ? they have two children together , and when i 'm not , you know , in a jealous rage , i can see that really clearly . nina : it must be so , so difficult watching her run to his side . franco : no . carly 's promised me that she was gon na keep her distance from sonny , and she 's doing a great job . nina : you sure about that ? [ scene_break ] ava : carly , what brings you by ? did sonny tell you i moved out ? carly : yeah , by way of the hospital roof . ava : so , why are you here ? does sonny miss me ? carly : i 'm here for morgan . ava : is he all right ? carly : no . you sideswiped him with a pregnancy . and i realize this baby is an insurance policy for you , but it means something to morgan . you already hurt him by sleeping with sonny . now he ca n't move on until he finds out if he 's the father . ava : well , frankly , i sympathize . i 'm curious myself . but there 's not much i can do until after i deliver . carly : you 're wrong . here . here 's your purse . ava : do you need a loan ? carly : we 're going to the hospital . you 're taking a paternity test . [ scene_break ] sonny : before you leave , how 's -- how 's alice ? morgan : [ sighs ] we got lucky , found her a heart . sonny : that 's great . so the transplant took ? morgan : yeah , she made it through surgery . i guess we 'll know in a couple days if she rejects the heart . monica 's watching her . sonny : so far , so good . morgan : if there is n't anything else ... sonny : yeah , there is . i want to talk to you about , uh , ava . morgan : she moved out . i know . michael told me . sonny : he said he would . morgan : where she lives does n't change anything . sonny : this is not about where she lives . it 's ... i want to tell you the truth about what happened with ava and me .

[ scene_break ] maxie : mom , you love that ring . felicia : and i 've always known that when you married the man that you love , that i would give you this ring . it 's been passed down from mother and daughter for generations , and someday you 'll give it to georgie . maxie : it 's too much . felicia : i knew from the moment you were born that i was gon na give you this ring when you married the man that you love , and you love levi . maxie : i ca n't take that ring , mom . felicia : well , of course , you can . unless you can think of some reason why you should n't . maxie : i guess not . felicia : maxie , you 're my daughter , and i trust you to make the right choices for your life and for your heart . that 's why i 'm giving you this ring . no conditions . maxie : you know , if you keep giving away all your aztec jewelry , you 're not gon na have any left . felicia : i still have my earrings . maxie : you 're still too generous . felicia : this is your day , maxie . i would n't have it any other way . [ sobs ] [ scene_break ] franco : how could you know anything about sonny and carly ? you did n't even know who he was until i told you . nina : that 's right . i do n't know that man . i 'm not trying to suggest anything . it 's just you 've been nice to me , and i like talking to you . and i know you 're in love with your girlfriend . and , um , i 'm being overly protective . franco : of what ? nina : um , just you -- i just want to make sure that carly is earning the trust that you are showing her . franco : what trust ? what -- what -- nina : no , i do n't know . that 's -- that 's a poor choice of words . franco : hold on a second . then -- then , you know , maybe ... go ahead . just rephrase the question . nina : i would -- i would like to drop the subject . franco : nina , what is it you 're not telling me ? [ scene_break ] sonny : i 'm not gon na excuse what happened with ava , all right ? i 've apologized a hundred times . but you -- you -- you 've asked me to explain how it happened . morgan : right , and you would n't tell me . sonny : i could n't . and i still ca n't , not the whole thing . in my life , you know what it means when i say it 's life and death , right ? morgan : so , what ? was screwing ava a matter of life and death ? sonny : i 'm just trying to tell you why . i did n't want to hurt you any more than i already did , and i - i was trying to protect you . morgan : protect me from what ? sonny : the fallout from my actions . i crossed a line that i can never come back from . [ scene_break ] ava : well , you have a hell of a nerve coming here and telling me what i should do with my body . carly : hey , i 'm the last person you need to lecture about reproductive rights . but morgan has rights , too . he needs to know if he 's the father , and you 're far along enough for an amnio , so let 's go . ava : not a chance .

ashley : let 's . this is so exciting . guys , we are riding a wave . the mobile represents almost two out of three digital media minutes , and i want to make sure that jabotgo is a part of those minutes . hooking and holding on to millennial mobile adapters , i mean , that 's the key to building brand loyalty . and if we can do that , i find it so exciting . chelsea : so , you 're gon na be our host . congratulations . mariah : [ sighs ] chloe : should be interesting . mariah : why ? because you do n't think i can do it ? chloe : no , because i saw hilary giving you the stink eye . mariah : [ chuckles ] sharon : well , i am thrilled , not only because you deserve this but because of the way hilary spun dylan 's interview and trashed us . i 'm glad devon fired her . chloe : well , karma 's a bitch . mariah : and we have a live show to do . so , if you guys want to go over and meet our segment producer , you 're gon na love her . she 's great . chelsea : and you 're okay being one of our models ?

ravi : well , it depends on what the metrics , cache database , and hosting topology show . jack : the hosting topology . right . ravi : once those parameters are clear , i promise the turnaround will be as quick as possible . and luckily we 're scaling at just the right time . after all , premature optimization is the root of all evil . sorry , it 's programmer humor . ashley : donald knuth . jack : wait , who ? ravi : you -- you know who knuth is ? ashley : only the godfather of computer science . ravi : i knew we were speaking the same language . ashley : hardly at your level . but i think with your genius and my ideas , we are gon na develop products that women are gon na want even more than they already do . jack : as long as it works . that 's all i care about . so what do you need to get started ? ravi ? ravi : sorry , um , what -- what was the question ? jack : you know what ? ashley is the point person on this . the two of you can work out the details together . ashley : thank you so much for coming on board . ravi : thank you . ashley : we 're so excited . ravi : thank you . it 's a really great opportunity . thank you . and -- and thank you , too . jack : no , thank you . ashley : we 'll see you later . ravi : sounds good . thank you . did i say that already ? i - i meant it , so ... thank you . ashley : sure . bye . he 's so smart ! he is so smart . we can count on him , you know . he comes in high -- jack : he certainly seems motivated . maybe a little too motivated . summer : it 's kind of weird , is n't it ? things really end with mom and jack and she 's alone , you 've lost sage , and no more luca . nick : which is a good thing . summer : i do n't know . it just kind of feels like we 're all ... adrift . nick : look , we have lost a lot . that is true . but we still have each other . and we have christian . i mean , if he is n't a sign that anything is possible , i do n't know what is . all i see is hope , summer , for all of us . summer : you know , i think that my mom could really use this pep talk . nick : is that what this visit was really about ? summer : i do n't know . you know , even when jack divorced her , she still thought that she could win him back , but whatever 's happened , if this is really the end for my mom and jack , i have no idea how she 's gon na deal with it . nick : well , i 'm not saying it 's gon na be easy , but i know your mom 's gon na get through it because her daughter has the biggest heart in the world . faith : i can hear you . nick : oh , well , i meant to say both of my daughters have the biggest hearts i 've ever seen . i mean , how lucky am i ?

nick : [ sighs ] summer 's concerned that things are really over between you and jack . is that true ? phyllis : you know ... i would say it was over when i kissed billy , but , uh , you know , i do n't think i wanted to face it even after the divorce . nick : but you still love jack . phyllis : i do n't know if that really matters because he was very clear that there is no future with us . nick : well , then is this the best place for you ? i mean , you walk in here every day . it 's jack 's company . jack 's office is right down the hall . phyllis : way ahead of you . kevin : happy anniversary . michael : yes , here 's to many , many more . kevin : you are a lucky man . michael : and do n't i know it . maybe you 'll be celebrating some anniversaries of your own someday ? chloe ? moving in together ? good news ? kevin : maybe . even though i almost torpedoed things before they got off the ground . michael : [ sighs ] why am i not surprised ? and i say that with love . what happened ? kevin : well , i had this great idea to pack up some of her stuff , right ? let her know how excited i was that she and bella were moving in with me . michael : she did n't see it that way . kevin : no , she got a little bugged . she got a lot bugged . michael : women and their stuff . i 'm not quite sure if that was incredibly brave of you or incredibly stupid . kevin : so , not romantic ? why am i the only one who sees it that way ? michael : oh , romantic , in an `` invasion of privacy , `` stalker - y kind of way . kevin : well , maybe . still , the way she freaked out , it surprised me . michael : well , aside from having your way with chloe 's stuff , how 's everything else going on between you two ? kevin : great . you know , it 's kind of like it always was , and at the same time , different . i tell you , though , i open up that door knowing that chloe 's there and bella . it 's the best part of my day . michael : i 'm really happy for you , brother . kevin : thanks . i 'm happy for me , too . and here 's some more good news for chloe and for chelsea . chelsea 2.0 is going big and live on gc buzz today . it could be a game changer for them . ashley : ravi has a crush on me ?

jack : i do n't know . you tell me . ashley : [ laughs ] well , hoodies have never really been my style , jack . jack : well , we can use it to our advantage . ashley : [ gasps ] as a motivator ? jack : why not ? ashley : you are shameless . jack : no , i am purpose driven , and we have to keep jabotgo on the top of the heap . now , i want to talk to you about this new venture . fenmore 's . ashley : what ? a strategic partnership ? that sounds intriguing . jack : a partnership is a minefield waiting to happen . i 'm talking about a takeover . phyllis : i 'm just throwing ideas against the wall . i want to see what sticks . you have the best business instincts , all right ? i want your input . nick : so you want to expand fenmore 's web presence . phyllis : correct . they have a very good basic online foundation , but there 's so much more they can do . nick : yeah , i mean , fenmore 's is an institution . phyllis : right . which is very good , very good . but it also could be bad if they are seen as a dinosaur . nick : ooh , i would n't say that to lauren if i was you . phyllis : well , what they did is they took what was working in the stores and they just transposed it to a website . nick : yeah , but the problem is consumers do n't shop the way they used to . phyllis : exactly . it 's all about branding and awareness these days . now , if i can create and optimize a digital omni - channel platform for fenmore 's , then not only is it gon na improve business , but i 'm gon na drive traffic back to the stores . it 's gon na be transformative ! nick : really like what i 'm seeing . phyllis : yeah ! i mean , the ideas are solid , right ? nick : yeah . what i like more is your enthusiasm . phyllis : [ chuckles ] if i can pull this off . nick : you can do it . i mean , your work at newman , at restless style , you were a webmaster before anyone even knew what that word meant . phyllis : [ laughs ] nick : you 're gon na rock this , and lauren is gon na be thrilled . phyllis : oh , and just maybe it might work out for me , too , you know ? kind of counting on it . might be my ticket out of this shoebox . nick : well , i think it 's gon na be great for you , so -- [ object clatters ] nick : oh . phyllis : oh ! [ laughs ] nick : i 'm so sorry . phyllis : that was my little gift that summer gave me . no , it was an office- warming present . it was for luck . nick : yeah , well , it looks to me like you 're making your own . michael : oh , hey , beautiful girl . summer : hey . michael : mwah . ooh , ooh , ooh . i just saw your mother earlier . summer : yeah ? how 'd she seem to you ? michael : oh , there 's been some rough patches , but ... well , she has you . that 's a good start . summer : thanks . michael : see you . summer : hey . kevin : hi . summer : so , i hear you have a new roommate . kevin : two of them , actually . and the -- the shorter one 's even cuter than her mom , if that 's possible . summer : well , that 's great news . how is mariah taking it ? kevin : she 's cool . summer : really ? okay , 'cause it 's not like i ever imagined you two as an actual couple or anything , but you are living with the woman who hit mariah over the head with a bottle . kevin : yes , but the important thing to remember is that mariah and i are great friends and nothing is gon na change that . and speaking of my new roommate , she 's about to be on live tv . chelsea : hi . mariah : hi . chelsea : you look fantastic . mariah : thanks . yeah , my own hair and makeup team . i could get used to that . sharon : selfie ! mariah : [ laughs ] sharon : got it . chloe : okay , so you need to finish getting ready ? mariah : yes . yeah . chelsea : okay . sharon : we got to get your shoes on . mariah : do i have to ? sharon : we practiced this . mariah : yeah , a little . sharon : just remember , heel to toe , one foot in front of the other , let your hips swing a little , lean back , and have a good time . mariah : yeah , right . got it . have a good time . devon : all right , everyone , we go live in five minutes ! chelsea : okay . chloe : you guys look great . yeah . it 's gon na be awesome . oh , relax . it 's water . jack : fenmore 's has had a tough year . lauren 's trying to put a good face on it , but all the signs are there . they 're underperforming , they have debt load issues . they 're weak . ashley : have you spoken to anybody else about this plan of yours ? jack : well , i did a little out - loud thinking in front of phyllis . ashley : oh , that 's just great . jack : wait , i covered . and besides , i do n't think she 's gon na be around for much longer . ashley : thank god . i mean , honestly , it 's gone on for far too long . jack : are you with me or not ? ashley : lauren 's our friend . you know that ? jack : getting fenmore 's would be such a coup . think about it . an established , respected chain under the jabot umbrella . ashley : it has definitely a huge upside . jack : i 'm gon na take a look at the numbers . if they 're what i think they are , if we do n't do it , someone else will . fenmore 's is ripe for the taking . without much risk to our bottom line , we could have that company , but we have to move and move fast .

[ christian cries ] nick : [ sighs ] chelsea : ... throw it in your suitcase . when you get to your destination , shake it out and wear it . mariah : a dress that does n't need ironing . i am sold . [ chuckles ] now , chloe , are there any trends that our audience should be looking out for ? chloe : yes , people should be looking out for bright colors and bold prints . anything bohemian to victorian to military with some fun ' 80s shoulders thrown in it . chelsea : which brings us to our next model . lacey is not only pretty in pink . she is pretty in coral . this look is very strong but very romantic . it is our ruffle romper . as you can see , there is a ruffle trim on the sleeve and the bodice and the short cuff . i 'd like to say this look is not only flirty but it 's fun and sexy and perfect for a night on the town . chloe : thank you , lacey . mariah : you know , i have to be honest , chelsea . pink is not my favorite color , but i can get on board with this . it 's beautiful . chelsea : good , well , i 'm glad . and we 've also saved the best for last . we have the perfect model to show our next look . mariah ? mariah : you know , guys , i have been practicing , and i think i 've got this . chelsea : you are gon na be great . mariah is wearing one of our more bohemian looks . it 's my favorite look from the collection , actually . and it has a beautiful slit , it 's very sexy , um , a low v - neck , so i hope you guys like it . sharon : [ gasps ] faith : [ gasps ] [ next_on ] lily : no more work . it 's time for your treatment . chloe : hold on , hold on . sharon : but she could be hurt . chloe : no , they 're still rolling . let 's see what she does . hilary : if you admit that you were wrong , just maybe i 'll come back .
phyllis talks to michael and nick about the fact that she has finally accepted that her relationship with jack has ended . phyllis tells michael that she has an idea that could help increase fenmore 's sales ; and once she has it ready , she will tell lauren more about it . nick thinks that phyllis is on the right track with her ideas about how to expand fenmore 's web presence . she also tells nick that she hopes to get a job at fenmore 's once she shows her ideas to lauren . nick has a bit more then he can handle with faith and christian living at home although he wo n't admit that he is overwhelmed and tells summer he has everything under control . ashley hires robbie , the computer programmer who helped her develop the jabotgo app . his new job is to make sure that the jabot website can handle the increased traffic without crashing . jack tells ashley to take advantage of the fact that robbie has a crush on her to keep him motivated to do his job quickly . phyllis overhears jack telling ashley that he wants to take over fenmore 's . the ladies of chelsea 2.0 have their big fashion show on gc buzz , and everything is going well until mariah falls on her face while modeling her dress , because hilary cut the heel of her shoe . mariah sees a blurry image of hilary standing over her before she passes out .

[ knock on door ] ravi : hello . ashley : hey ! ravi : hope i 'm not late . ashley : no , you 're right on time . come on in . good to see you again . ravi : how are you ? ashley : ravi , this is my brother , jack abbott . he is the c.e.o . of jabot cosmetics . ravi : sorry . ashley : [ chuckles ] ravi : nice to meet you . jack : uh , likewise . listen , we are very impressed with this app you and ashley developed . we 're just hoping to make it a little better . ravi : the beauty of technology is that it can always be improved . although some things are perfect the way they are . jack : okay , well , why do n't we get started , then ? ashley : let 's . this is so exciting . guys , we are riding a wave . the mobile represents almost two out of three digital media minutes , and i want to make sure that jabotgo is a part of those minutes . hooking and holding on to millennial mobile adapters , i mean , that 's the key to building brand loyalty . and if we can do that , i find it so exciting . chelsea : so , you 're gon na be our host . congratulations . mariah : [ sighs ] chloe : should be interesting . mariah : why ? because you do n't think i can do it ? chloe : no , because i saw hilary giving you the stink eye . mariah : [ chuckles ] sharon : well , i am thrilled , not only because you deserve this but because of the way hilary spun dylan 's interview and trashed us . i 'm glad devon fired her . chloe : well , karma 's a bitch . mariah : and we have a live show to do . so , if you guys want to go over and meet our segment producer , you 're gon na love her . she 's great . chelsea : and you 're okay being one of our models ? mariah : absolutely . i 've got the pout down cold . chelsea : all right , let 's do this . i want to go meet the producer . we have a lot to do , not a lot of time . you 'll prep mariah ? sharon : mm - hmm . chelsea : great . sharon : all right , so this is your dress . mariah : okay . sharon : and it 's easy to make adjustments . mariah : perfect . well , at least one thing about this will be easy . sharon : and shoes -- very important . mariah : i know . these are great . sharon : um , you 're not wearing those , sweetie . you 're wearing these . mariah : oh . these . did i mention i have a fear of heights ? sharon : it 's okay to be a little afraid . mariah : a little afraid ? i am freaking terrified out of my mind . sharon : you 're gon na be great . mariah : you have to say that . you 're my mom . ravi : when i created the underlying architecture for this app , i planned for a facilitation of scaling so the main components are all in place . ashley : very clever . ravi : i had a strong feeling this would succeed in the marketplace . jack : so , how long will all this take ? ravi : well , it depends on what the metrics , cache database , and hosting topology show . jack : the hosting topology . right . ravi : once those parameters are clear , i promise the turnaround will be as quick as possible . and luckily we 're scaling at just the right time . after all , premature optimization is the root of all evil . sorry , it 's programmer humor . ashley : donald knuth . jack : wait , who ? ravi : you -- you know who knuth is ? ashley : only the godfather of computer science . ravi : i knew we were speaking the same language . ashley : hardly at your level . but i think with your genius and my ideas , we are gon na develop products that women are gon na want even more than they already do . jack : as long as it works . that 's all i care about . so what do you need to get started ? ravi ? ravi : sorry , um , what -- what was the question ? jack : you know what ? ashley is the point person on this . the two of you can work out the details together . ashley : thank you so much for coming on board . ravi : thank you . ashley : we 're so excited . ravi : thank you . it 's a really great opportunity . thank you . and -- and thank you , too . jack : no , thank you . ashley : we 'll see you later . ravi : sounds good . thank you . did i say that already ?

do you really want to be at odds with your father ? because , i 'm sorry , liam , watching the two of you go at it is torture . i know this person is so important to you . and if -- if it 's not for anybody else , please do it for me . do it for me before this gets really serious . liam : you -- you do n't -- you do n't think this is already serious ? my dad committed a crime . by all rights he should be in prison . and i stopped that . i kept him out . i gave him an out . steffy : you forced him out . liam : well , it 's better than doing hard time . steffy : okay , you -- you have a strong position , and you 've proven it . so now let 's go to the table and -- and make peace , okay ?

[ sighs ] listen , i appreciate what you 're trying to do . i really do . peace is not possible in this family , not right now . steffy : well , then -- then -- then when ? he feels genuine remorse . he 's in pain because he lost you . he 's lost this company . he 's lost brooke . just delete the recording . and please just end this feud . bill : it 's critical , justin . we need that recording . justin : i know . i 've been on it since the start . bill : well , stay on it ! and hurry him up ! justin : can you calm down ? all right ? we have to be careful , considering liam 's i.t . background . if he catches us accessing his files , it 's game over . bill : i do n't want excuses . i want execution . i want it deleted . from his phone , from his computer , from his cloud . i do n't care if he has it stuck up his -- wherever the hell it is , it needs to be eliminated forever . steffy : just delete the recording . that 's all your father is asking . liam : i can't . i can't . i can't . it 's the only protection i have against a man who vowed to bring me down . bill : if steffy does n't come through , i will take matters into my own hands . one way or another , i will get rid of that recording and end this blackmail . what i do with liam after that , i do n't know . but first things first -- that audio file . justin : look , we 're -- we 're getting close . bill : i do n't want `` we 're getting close `` ! i want completion . i want my company back . i want that recording eliminated . that means an end to liam 's blackmailing power grab . i want to be c.e.o . of my company again . find that recording , justin !Summarize.[/INST]steffy tells bill just let her talk once more to liam . they have to keep trying . bill gives her a big hug . he says she has to do it quickly as time is running out . he does n't know what he would do without her . she wonders what he will do if she can not change liam 's mind . liam tells justin that his dad was just in here the other day telling him that he had revenge plans for him . and he knows justin is bill 's only link to the office now and he needs to know he can trust him 100 % or otherwise he has to go . if he even gets a hint that he is still working for his father then he will be out of this company pronto . justin says liam is getting more and more like his dad every day . liam calls in head of security and says he does not want his father to be let in , so go do his job . katie and wyatt discuss his mother but he says it is also bill he is worried about finding out about the two of them . he will probably go right out of his head . he has plenty of time on his hands now . katie says she thinks he is worried mostly about brooke now so wo n't be worried about them . bill tells steffy that liam has to meet him half way ; it ca n't all be on bill . he assures her he will be back in control of his company . justin strolls in . he has just overheard what bill and steffy were talking about about needing liam to delete that confession of his .</s>

carly is annoyed to discover that jax has olivia working on plans to turn the eighth floor of the metro court into an apartment for brenda . olivia advises jax and carly not to throw away everything they have because of brenda . jax tells carly that he is concerned for brenda 's safety . he says the suites are on a protected floor and she will have hotel security . carly asks about the cost . he says he assumes brenda will pay rent and they will use the apartment as a corporate timeshare when brenda leaves . carly says having brenda living there will be like putting a target on the hotel to draw the balkan .
<s>[INST] jax : i love you . i do n't know how many ways i can show you . carly : you 're not answering the question . jax : okay , fine . if brenda came to me and asked for my help , i would help her just like i would help any other old friend because she matters to me , but that 's as far as it goes . i 'm not gon na throw away what we have . is that good enough for you ? carly : a little . jax : a little ? carly : we both have had moments of paranoia . i love you . jax : come here . i love you . carly : we 're being a very bad example to our employees . jax : well , we could get a room . they 're free . carly : they are . jax : come on , then . carly : ok . heh heh . olivia : jax . i 'm sorry to interrupt , but i knew you were anxious to get these . it 's the estimates for turning those rooms on 8 into an apartment for brenda . jax : why do n't you leave 'em on my desk ? i 'll take a look at those later . okay ? carly : why do n't we look at 'em now ?

theresa was confused about whether to choose to be with jared or ethan , although the two men each knew they want to be with her . fancy tried to believe luis is n't her rapist , but just kept waivering , leaving him believing she thinks he did it . once she came up with a decision that he could n't have done it , she ran to tell him . he was being comforted by sheridan at that very moment . kay sat at fox 's bedside , telling him she loves him and wants him to wake up so they can spend what time he has left together , as miguel eavesdropped and wondered where he stands in all of it . a talk with his flip- flopping mother convinced him to go ahead and break up kay 's marriage if that 's what he wants , so he went back to the room and bullied kay into choosing which man she wants , which was him , of course .

kate : i definitely have . so ... did you find chloe another job ? quinn : yes , i did , and she 's gon na put her heart and soul into this one . kate : how can you be so sure of that ? quinn : everyone says what a talented performer she is . kate : hmm . obviously you have n't seen her onstage . quinn : i do n't give a damn about the stage . her days of singing puccini to blue - haired millionaires are over . kate : so ... what if she does n't perform in the bedroom ? quinn : then she 'll have to face the music , and the tune wo n't be very sweet . chloe : what do we have to talk about , justin ? sonny : i 'm just gon na grab us a couple sodas . justin : oh , that 's a good idea . chloe : uh , you 're making me nervous . justin : no , do n't be . i just wanted to tell you that the , um , social worker is ready to move on to the next step of the , uh , evaluation . chloe : okay , well , that sounds positive . justin : it is . it is ... somewhat . chloe : somewhat ? justin : well , it 's just that so far , everything 's gone smoothly . chloe : why would n't it keep going that way ? justin : chloe , you wo n't be able to do any sort of trial - custody arrangement until you 've sorted a few things out . chloe : i 'll do anything . you know that . justin : okay , well , here 's where we are now . you 're living in a hotel , and you 're teaching voice lessons a couple times a week . chloe : things will pick up . justin : i know they will . but in order for us to make progress with this custody business now , you have to be able to prove that you can provide stability for your son . chloe : meaning ? justin : meaning ... you need to have a steady income , also a place to call home ... a place of your own . taylor : okay , it 's not like you . ej : hmm ? what ? taylor : to be so quiet . ej : well , to be honest , when you called , i just thought that you might be in some kind of trouble . taylor : oh , i did n't mean to worry you . i just -- i just wanted to surprise you ... in a good way . did it work ?

oh . ooh . oh . well , i 'm cozy now . and i 'm not going anywhere until i find out what that son of a bitch is up to . justin : chloe , i know you understand . a child needs a real home . a hotel ... chloe : does n't cut it ? you think i do n't know that ? of course i want a home for my son , at least an apartment . and i 'm gon na get one . i 'm gon na find a way to make it happen . sonny : what about the guesthouse at victor 's ? chloe : hmm , thanks , but i think that victor would rather burn the mansion down than let me live there . and honestly , i think i 'd rather die than live anywhere near that man . sonny : okay . justin : well , how about your parents ? can they , uh , help you out for a little while ? chloe : well , i do n't really know how taking money from my parents is proving that i can provide for my own son . justin , look , i really appreciate all your help and everything that you 're doing for me , but i have to do this on my own , and i will . so ... thank you . excuse me , guys . justin : good luck . chloe : thanks . justin : i got it . i got it . chloe : thank you . quinn : just the woman i was looking for . chloe : how did you know i was here ? quinn : lucky guess . chloe : what do you want ? quinn : you get right to it . i like that . chloe : i 'm not really in the mood for games , quinn . just tell me . quinn : i 've got another job lined up for you . and this time , your client had better be satisfied , delighted , and fulfilled , or else . oh , and there 's something else . that , um , agent you claimed you were gon na use for further bookings , i doubt he 'll be very effectual . chloe : what are you talking about ? quinn : do n't screw with me , chloe . he 's your lawyer , justin kiriakis . it 's just lie after lie with you . but this is where it ends , do you understand ? because if there 's just -- just one more even tiny , little , innocent fib ... we 're done . game over . taylor : a day ago , i was afraid i might lose you . and now ... i do -- i really believe we can have a future together . ej : we will ... my love ... a wonderful , wonderful ... happy future . now just give me a kiss . taylor : [ giggles ] anytime . ej : [ sighs ] stefano : and with great sadness , the young prince left his friends and the kingdom he once called home . johnny : but why , grandpa ? stefano : well , because prince vandelay made a foolish mistake , see ... [ groans ] like your father . johnny : what ? stefano : [ laughs ] no , no , no . okay , it 's not a big deal . no , i 'm kidding , really . your father made a mistake one time , and i had to teach him a lesson , you know . that 's all . [ laughs ] [ sighs ] sami : there 's no way i am sending rafe in there , guns blazing . what if my son gets caught in the crossfire ? bo : that mansion is huge . he 'll be off in his bedroom someplace . sami : what if he 's not ? what if he hears a commotion , and he goes to check it out ? hope : no , sami , sami ... we all know that ej and stefano would give their own lives before they ever let anything happen to johnny . sami : hope , we ca n't count on them for anything . bo : dimera has his operatives looking for rafe as we speak . hope : exactly , plus , rafe is officially wanted for murder one . some overzealous beat cop collars him , that 's it . it all falls apart . bo : we ca n't wait a day . we ca n't wait an hour . hell , we ca n't even wait ten minutes , or it might be too late . [ clattering ] nicole : ooh . shh . shh . hey ... i 've seen that guy before . rafe : so ... you ready to do some talking ? rafe 2 : you really are desperate , are n't you ? you were just here . rafe : mm . but now i hear all hell 's about ready to break loose . rafe 2 : ah . rafe : yeah . rafe 2 : what else is new ? rafe : yeah . well , listen up , bud . i 'm gon na give you one last chance to go on record ... tell me that the dimeras were responsible for everything that you 've done . rafe 2 : [ chuckles ] ah , you do n't get it , do you ? rafe : i can make sure you get a plea deal , stay off of death row . rafe 2 : oh . well , that sounds tempting . it does . but i think i 'll take my chances . rafe : huh . okay . were gon na do it my way , then . you can see the dimeras in hell . rafe 2 : whoo . sami : okay , so why do n't you tell me why taylor is involved ? why were you asking me to find out if she was gon na be there ? hope : sami , i 'm sorry . we thought you knew . uh , ej and taylor are together . sami : what ? w - what are you talking about ? together how ? bo : surveillance told us that they saw ej putting an engagement ring on her finger . sami : he 's still married to nicole . hope : yeah , well , not for long . sami : are you serious ? she agreed to marry a man who 's responsible for her mother 's death ? hope : she has no idea . sami : oh , my god . taylor : i do n't get it . what 's with all the security outside ? ej : it 's nothing . father . stefano : ah . giovanni went to bed without any protest , as he usually does for his nonno . taylor , well , nice to see you joining us tonight . i was hoping to have a little chat with you . rafe 2 : mm ! rafe : [ sighs ] nicole : okay , you homicidal dirt bag . you got a secret ... and i 'm gon na find out what it is .

[ sighs ] i , um ... think that i 'm so happy about finishing my book , that i -- to the point of being giddy . cane : yeah , um , i guess it 's , uh -- it must be contagious . traci : [ chuckles ] kevin : in case you were wondering , i do n't love being woken up and told i got to race right over . adam : well , i do n't love the way you keep stalling me . where is the dirt on nick that 's gon na bury him and win me custody of my kid ? kevin : these things take time . adam : okay , sleep less . kevin : look , i spent all day at nick 's old computer , going through individual files , thousands of them . it 's not like he has a folder labeled `` top secret stuff that could screw me in court . `` adam : well , i find it odd you are not more motivated to speed things along . kevin : dude , i am working as fast as i can . adam : is that why you have n't looked me in the eye once since you 've been here ? kevin : what ? no , i 'm just -- adam : you are lying through your teeth . you did find something , did n't you ? and if you 're this reluctant to tell me about it , it must be big enough and bad enough to take nick newman down . jack : you want another ? billy : no . i 'm good . jack : oh , i almost forgot . have you heard the latest news about my favorite redhead ? billy : what 's phyllis up to now ? jack : phyllis is officially running things at dark horse . billy : are you kidding me right now ? jack : i wish i were . adam hired her as c.e.o . billy : jack , this is n't good . that 's not good at all . we know what 's she capable of . now she 's in deep with a guy like adam ? how did you find out ? jack : ah , she took great pleasure in delivering the news in person , along with an elaborate gift basket . billy : what , seasonal fruit and plastic explosives ? jack : the moment she walked out of the door , i started checking it for cameras and listening devices . billy : that was gon na be next guess . so , what is it ? a warning sign fired directly at jabot ? jack : i do n't know . i do know we 're gon na have to keep our eyes and ears open . billy : yes , we 're gon na have to do that because adam might have just given phyllis the arsenal to move in for the kill . kevin : if i 'd found anything you could use , i would come running . the stakes are too high for me to hold out on you . adam : do n't you want to see chloe free from her captivity ? how long are you gon na let her suffer , kevin ? hmm ? kevin : chloe had better be all right , adam , or i swear to god -- adam : you want to see her for yourself ? it 's simple . cough up whatever it is you have on nick that he would n't want a judge to know about . kevin : okay . okay , you 're right . i did uncover something incriminating , and it was n't easy . nick fried the server on purpose , probably right before handing over the keys . adam : huh . well , what do you know ? nick is more strategic than i realized . kevin : i had to do a lot of recovery work , but it paid off . i got into some of victor 's files , and there it was , something super juicy that can cause major damage to nick 's case . adam : okay , great . let 's hear it . kevin : not until chloe 's free . adam : listen carefully while i explained to you exactly how this works . i have the woman you love stashed away somewhere that you will never find her , whereas you claim you have information i might find valuable . now you tell me -- which one of us has more leverage ? kevin : i do . adam : how do you figure that ? kevin : because i am going to give you a bombshell that your lawyer can lob at nick and stay in town until you 've decided you 've gotten your pound of flesh . but this has to end -- tonight . you can not continue to hold chloe hostage indefinitely . adam : i do n't know , the way i see it , all of the attempts she 's made on my life give me the right to a little retribution . kevin : [ sighs ] you know who 's suffering through all of this ? it is n't chloe or me . it 's bella . a very sweet girl who misses her mother every minute of every day . chloe is bella 's whole life , and she does n't understand any of this . adam : mm . kevin : you have already taken one child from chloe , are you gon na keep bella from her , too ?

or that phyllis is itching for payback because we fired her as c.e.o . without a dime of severance ? now she 's running the company that adam stole from nick ? and she 's taking the time to come over and gloat to you about it ? let 's not forget about this little scheme that she had to knock off our accessory line and profit from it . if you 're not worried , jack , i 'm actually worried about you . jack : we know what phyllis is capable of . we will both be vigilant . but she answers to adam , who i consider a friend , and if he sees she 's trying to retaliate against jabot , i think he 'll put a stop to it . billy : you know , every time you that piece of human excrement as a friend , it makes my skin crawl . and now we have to rely on him to keep our company safe . jack : billy , billy . easy . billy : no , when she walked in to my commitment ceremony with adam on her arm , i knew we were in trouble . jack : if phyllis comes after jabot , we will fend her off . you have my word . now , could we please get on to brighter subjects ? how are things going with you and victoria , now that you 're all but married again ? billy : we 're good . we 're great . she 's really stepping up at newman , too . jack : oh ? billy : yeah . uh , victor gave her the c.e.o . job . hopefully , this time , it 'll be for good . jack : what ? billy : yeah . jack : i honestly thought he 'd hold on to that seat until he keeled over . what -- what caused this seismic shift ? billy : i do n't know , i guess his priorities have changed now that his number- two son is back in the mix . jack : wow , at this rate , adam 's resurrection is going to affect everyone in this town .

[ doors closes ] jack : hey ! i was n't sure you 'd still be up . traci : oh ! hello . why , what time is it ? jack : well , i -- i guess it 's not that late , given that you 've become a night owl ever since you started this book . have n't asked about that in a while . how 's it going ? any closer to a finish line ? traci ? did you hear a word of what i just said ? traci : i am so sorry . what ? jack : where were you just now ? and what put that smile on your face ? traci : [ chuckles ] cane : well , traci 's been working on the book now for a while , and , uh , you know , we talk . we 're , uh -- we 're kind of friends . billy : i mean , i think -- i think that 's great . i just thought she would have told her family first . cane : well , i think it had something to do with the fact that she just typed the end before i just walked in the room and saw . billy : well , i 'll have to follow up with her and tell her congratulations . cane : yeah . yeah , she 'd appreciate that . billy : now that we 're talking about changes ... what 's this i hear about you walking away from chancellor ? cane : yeah , yeah . it was , uh -- you know , it was time , so ... billy : why now ? you went after that job with a vengeance . cane : well , i suppose watching your family fall apart because of your actions , it kind of makes you question , you know , your priorities and your values , you know , and you kind of , you know , want to stop chasing the money and the prestige and do something more meaningful , you know ? billy : amen to that . cane : mm . cheers . billy : what are you up to now ? cane : i 'm working with , uh , former inmates , you know , i 'm helping them get their lives back on track , helping them polish up their résumés and work on their interviews skills because , you know , if they ca n't find a decent job after they get out of prison , you know , sooner or later , they 'll end up back behind bars . billy : wow . look at you . cane : yeah . look at me . billy : that 's definitely worthwhile work right there . cane : [ chuckles ] well , you know , you ca n't fix anything or anyone until you fix yourself first . billy : what pundit said that ? cane : that was your sister traci . esther : kevin , uh , come on . what are we doing here at this hour ? what is the big mystery ? kevin : i think , um -- i 'll let someone else explain . esther : [ scoffs ] what ? kevin : trust me , esther . it 's a good thing . brace yourself . and turn around . esther : brace myself ? oh , my god . what in the world have you gotten me into ? chloe : mom ? it 's not a hallucination . i 'm here . i 'm alive . it 's me . hi . hi . esther : oh , my god . chloe : i know . esther : [ whimpering ] chloe : i know . it 's okay . [ esther sobbing ] i know , it 's okay .

chloe : well , it 's kind of a long story , but since i -- i faked my death . i 've been -- i 've been in hiding with bella and kevin , and we 've been living far away from the midwest . esther : okay , look . why do n't you just come home with me and we can talk ? we can really talk . and i 'll make something for you and kevin to eat . oh , god , just let me look at you . chloe : mom , i can't . i -- mom , i have to leave . okay ? i -- i tried to kill adam again . esther : what ? chloe : and if i do n't disappear , then they 're gon na lock me up , and they will take bella away . okay ? i just -- i had to see you . i could n't let you continue to suffer . this is a really big secret , okay ? you ca n't tell anyone . no matter how hard it gets , you can not tell anybody that you know that i 'm alive . okay ? you have to promise me . esther : you have my word . i will do anything for my katie . no one will find out from me . chloe : thank you . thank you . i love you . esther : i love you so much , honey . chloe : i 'm sorry . okay , listen . you -- you should come and spend some time with us , okay ? you can arrange something with kevin , and ... come spend some time with me and bella . esther : no , absolutely not ! look . i am not letting you again . i have just gotten you back . please . just let me go with you , okay ? chloe : okay . okay , you -- you can come and stay for a little bit , but -- it -- it has to be quick . we need to leave now . esther : okay , fine . whatever you need . but do i have time to pack anything ? chloe : yeah . yes . go get your stuff . all right , you go home . please , just be quick and meet me at the airport . try to get on the same flight . i 'll meet you there . i just have to do something first . jack : wait , you 're done ? what do you mean , done ? traci : with the first draft . all done ! jack : that is fantastic ! congratulations . no wonder you 're all smiles . traci : i have a lot of things to be happy about . jack : i 'll say you do . another best seller on the way . traci : [ laughs ] jack : wow , that is so cool . traci : jack , `` best - seller . `` come on , i have n't even sent the draft to my editor . jack : if it 's half as good as all of your other novels , i predict great things ahead . traci : [ sighs ] jack : i 'd love to read it ! traci : well , it 's a little bit of a departure for me , and it is a love story , but i think you 're gon na like it . jack : i have no doubt about that . we should drink to this . scotch , brandy ... traci : oh , i actually had a cocktail already this evening to celebrate . with cane . he even suggested having a party . jack : what a wonderful idea . i wish i had thought of that . all these wonderful stories you create , i 've never done anything more than been an enthusiastic reader . traci : jack . i have loved all the encouragement you 've given me over the years . jack : really , i mean it . i want do more this time . all this joy you bring to people 's lives , i do n't think this family has given you the accolades you deserve . everything 's always about jabot . well , what you do is every bit as important and worthy of recognition . traci : that is the sweetest thing to say . jack : i mean every word of it . it is high time the abbott family give your accomplishments the attention they deserve . traci : [ sighs , laughs ] wow . i 've had wonderful support all along , and cane has been a great inspiration this time around . jack : tell me about -- [ cellphone rings ] go ahead . traci : oh , excuse me . sorry . oh ! wow . hey , talk about incredible timing . were your ears burning ? cane : who are you talking smack about me to this time ? traci : [ giggles ] [ cellphone vibrates ] ana : i 'll handle devon . i do n't need you worrying about any of that . tessa : i mean , it 's kind of hard not to . it seems like he already said no . i mean , i do n't want to be a downer . i really want this to work out . ana : well , i think all the stress he 's been under drove his initial reaction . but once he sees the finished product , i believe he 'll love it just as much as i do . hopefully he 'll green light it and forget about bringing someone in to babysit me . tessa : i 've seen you in action . you do not need the training wheels back on . i 'd be happy to tell him that . mariah : hey ! me , too . ana : well , i 'm counting on this all blowing over , but thank you . you two have a way of boosting my confidence . mariah : and we are gon na climb to the top of the charts , and we 're gon na do it together . ana : right on , ladies . right on . traci : no , i do n't mind at all that you 've called . i 'm just a little surprised to hear from you so soon after you left . cane : well , i could n't stop thinking about that one scene in the book . traci : no , you do n't have to tell me which one , i know . it 's the showdown at the reservoir . right ? cane : dead on . traci : i -- i saw your face when i was reading it to you . cane : it was culmination of everything you 'd been building to , and , you know , it was satisfying at the same time . traci : thank you . that is high praise . cane : you know , you have to make sure your editor does n't change one word of that , okay ? because it is letter - perfect just the way it is . traci : i will pass that along . cane : you better . traci : i 'm so sorry . um , so -- so , yes , i understand that you have some strong feelings about that . no ! no , it 's fine . i welcome your opinion . [ cellphone chimes ] adam : i did my part . now it 's your turn . hand over the information that will bury nick and get me my son back .
mariah and tessa finish editing her video and take it to ana who loves it and is pleased they listened to her suggestions but all three ladies worry that since devon did n't like the idea he wo n't let them release the video . cane and traci both decide they were carried away by the excitement of the book and that is why they kissed . cane tells her they are still friends and he decides to throw her a party with her family and friends to celebrate that she finished her manuscript . traci ca n't stop thinking about the kiss and jack walks in and sees her smiling about something so traci tells him she is happy to have finished her manuscript . kevin tells adam that he found something that could help his custody case against nick but he wo n't give him the information until he releases chloe . adam agrees and takes him to chloe and chloe wants to talk to adam alone before she leaves . chloe tells adam that delia 's death broke her and she ca n't be the mother she wants to be to bella because half of her time is consumed with hatred for him . adam tells chloe that he is haunted by the accident and apologizes for covering up what happened . adam also tells chloe he wishes he could change what happened to delia every day . adam asks chloe to forget about him and move on with her life . adam also promises not to tell anyone that she is alive and tried to kill him again because he wo n't be responsible for taking her away from bella . chloe agrees to leave and go back to portland but first she tells her mother she is alive . esther is overjoyed and agrees to go to portland with her so they can spend some time together . chloe also ssks kevin to text billy for her and tell him to meet him at delia 's grave . billy is shocked when he sees that chloe is not dead .
<s>[INST] [ previously_on ] ana : mariah had this idea of filming tessa singing in public places , and we 're gon na put together a video to release online . devon : i think that 's a waste of time . kevin : [ gasps ] what- what is going on ? everybody thinks you 're gone . nobody is looking for us . we get to portland , we start our new life , happily ever after . kevin : you tracked her down and had her kidnapped , and now you 're gon na give her back to me . adam : i intend to hold up my end . if you successfully complete the next job i give you . kevin : which is ? adam : find information that makes nick look like an unfit parent . traci : i finished my book . traci : it 's incredible . you 're incredible . cane : [ sighs ] traci : um ... [ sighs ] i , um ... think that i 'm so happy about finishing my book , that i -- to the point of being giddy . cane : yeah , um , i guess it 's , uh -- it must be contagious . traci : [ chuckles ] kevin : in case you were wondering , i do n't love being woken up and told i got to race right over . adam : well , i do n't love the way you keep stalling me . where is the dirt on nick that 's gon na bury him and win me custody of my kid ? kevin : these things take time . adam : okay , sleep less . kevin : look , i spent all day at nick 's old computer , going through individual files , thousands of them . it 's not like he has a folder labeled `` top secret stuff that could screw me in court . `` adam : well , i find it odd you are not more motivated to speed things along . kevin : dude , i am working as fast as i can . adam : is that why you have n't looked me in the eye once since you 've been here ? kevin : what ? no , i 'm just -- adam : you are lying through your teeth . you did find something , did n't you ? and if you 're this reluctant to tell me about it , it must be big enough and bad enough to take nick newman down . jack : you want another ? billy : no . i 'm good . jack : oh , i almost forgot . have you heard the latest news about my favorite redhead ? billy : what 's phyllis up to now ? jack : phyllis is officially running things at dark horse . billy : are you kidding me right now ? jack : i wish i were . adam hired her as c.e.o . billy : jack , this is n't good . that 's not good at all . we know what 's she capable of . now she 's in deep with a guy like adam ? how did you find out ? jack : ah , she took great pleasure in delivering the news in person , along with an elaborate gift basket . billy : what , seasonal fruit and plastic explosives ? jack : the moment she walked out of the door , i started checking it for cameras and listening devices . billy : that was gon na be next guess . so , what is it ? a warning sign fired directly at jabot ? jack : i do n't know . i do know we 're gon na have to keep our eyes and ears open . billy : yes , we 're gon na have to do that because adam might have just given phyllis the arsenal to move in for the kill . kevin : if i 'd found anything you could use , i would come running . the stakes are too high for me to hold out on you . adam : do n't you want to see chloe free from her captivity ? how long are you gon na let her suffer , kevin ? hmm ? kevin : chloe had better be all right , adam , or i swear to god -- adam : you want to see her for yourself ? it 's simple . cough up whatever it is you have on nick that he would n't want a judge to know about . kevin : okay . okay , you 're right . i did uncover something incriminating , and it was n't easy . nick fried the server on purpose , probably right before handing over the keys . adam : huh . well , what do you know ? nick is more strategic than i realized . kevin : i had to do a lot of recovery work , but it paid off . i got into some of victor 's files , and there it was , something super juicy that can cause major damage to nick 's case . adam : okay , great . let 's hear it . kevin : not until chloe 's free . adam : listen carefully while i explained to you exactly how this works . i have the woman you love stashed away somewhere that you will never find her , whereas you claim you have information i might find valuable . now you tell me -- which one of us has more leverage ? kevin : i do . adam : how do you figure that ? kevin : because i am going to give you a bombshell that your lawyer can lob at nick and stay in town until you 've decided you 've gotten your pound of flesh . but this has to end -- tonight . you can not continue to hold chloe hostage indefinitely . adam : i do n't know , the way i see it , all of the attempts she 's made on my life give me the right to a little retribution . kevin : [ sighs ] you know who 's suffering through all of this ? it is n't chloe or me . it 's bella . a very sweet girl who misses her mother every minute of every day . chloe is bella 's whole life , and she does n't understand any of this . adam : mm . kevin : you have already taken one child from chloe , are you gon na keep bella from her , too ? additional sponsorship traci : um , thank you so much for being such a willing participant audience . you know , you listened to the entire book , and you did n't fall asleep once . cane : you 're kidding , right ? i mean , the whole thing was gripping from the beginning to the end . traci : i 'm so pleased you liked it . cane : i did n't like it , i loved it . and what i said to you before about everything , i meant that , and ... thank you . thank you for sharing something so special with me . what 's the next step ? traci : what ? i 'm sorry , i do n't understand what you mean . do we even have a next step ? cane : [ chuckles ] no , no . i meant -- i meant , what 's the next step for your book ? what is -- what is the next step for the book ? traci : [ sighs ] oh . mariah : ta - da ! your video is vibrant , touching , and it 's finally done . tessa : maybe we should look at it just one more time . mariah : no , no , no ! we would be second - guessing ourselves . ana 's notes were brilliant , and they were easily incorporated . it 's perfect the way that it is . tessa : i mean , agree , okay ? actually , i love it . but will the rest of the world ? that 's the part i 'm not so sure of . mariah : tess , you need to trust me . this is gold . and very soon now , the rest of the world is gon na know how talented you are . jack : billy . hey ! i appreciate your concern . there 's no reason to panic just yet . billy : okay , then i 'll do it for the both of us . jack : billy ... billy : no , jack , did you forget that dark horse is a landlord for all of the jaboutiques ? or that phyllis is itching for payback because we fired her as c.e.o . without a dime of severance ? now she 's running the company that adam stole from nick ? and she 's taking the time to come over and gloat to you about it ? let 's not forget about this little scheme that she had to knock off our accessory line and profit from it . if you 're not worried , jack , i 'm actually worried about you . jack : we know what phyllis is capable of . we will both be vigilant . but she answers to adam , who i consider a friend , and if he sees she 's trying to retaliate against jabot , i think he 'll put a stop to it . billy : you know , every time you that piece of human excrement as a friend , it makes my skin crawl . and now we have to rely on him to keep our company safe . jack : billy , billy . easy . billy : no , when she walked in to my commitment ceremony with adam on her arm , i knew we were in trouble . jack : if phyllis comes after jabot , we will fend her off . you have my word . now , could we please get on to brighter subjects ? how are things going with you and victoria , now that you 're all but married again ? billy : we 're good . we 're great . she 's really stepping up at newman , too . jack : oh ? billy : yeah . uh , victor gave her the c.e.o . job . hopefully , this time , it 'll be for good . jack : what ? billy : yeah . jack : i honestly thought he 'd hold on to that seat until he keeled over . what -- what caused this seismic shift ? billy : i do n't know , i guess his priorities have changed now that his number- two son is back in the mix . jack : wow , at this rate , adam 's resurrection is going to affect everyone in this town .

[ cheering and yelling ]
holden is glad lily dropped by ; they need to talk about the future . she feels hopeful until he says he thinks they need to finalize the divorce as soon as possible . make a quick clean break . she does n't want that , but sees the futility of changing his mind . jack informs carly , kit and sam that they ca n't hang the posters for the benefit in the windows , so carly jokes that he will have to arrest her . she does n't see how they will be ready with metro in time . parker thinks sam and his dummy are weird and does not like them staying with his mom , but jack opines he has no control over that . dusty thinks he needs to reign chris in before any more happens with bob . carly bumps into lily and gives her free tickets to the opening . lily invites dusty and he remarks it 's a date and they will drink to better times in ' 08 . he harasses emily for wanting to celebrate before bob really wakes up and throws chris out on his ear . and taunts her that she really still has feelings for him , not chris .

michael has heather formally question daniel at the police station and he tells her the same thing that he told michael . he hated daisy but he would never hurt her . daniel gives michael the keys to his apartment and permission to search without a search warrant . phyllis tells ronan that she and nick are married . she pleads with him to help prove daniel did n't kill daisy , and he agrees . ronan arrives at daniel 's place and tells michael that he is doing a favor for phyllis . they agree to share all the information they find with each other . ronan does n't find anything that could prove daniel killed daisy . ronan heads back to the station and tells avery he thinks michael does n't have enough evidence to arrest daniel . the search is almost over at daniel 's place when a policeman shows michael an e - mail that daisy wrote to kevin asking him to take care of lucy in case something should happen to her , because she did n't trust phyllis or daniel to take care of her .

[ dramatic music ] kate : i 'll think about it . andre : well , that 's all i can ask . eduardo : hi , there . you know , i do n't believe we 've met . i 'm , uh , eddie . andre : oh . andre dimera . eduardo : yeah . so i heard about the , uh , thing that happened last night with you . kate : oh , you mean my tête - à - tête with clyde weston and his gun ? eduardo : yeah , that , yeah . i just wanted to , uh , say that i 'm really sorry . kate : what should you be sorry for ? nicole : so do you -- do you want me to drive you to the mansion ? chloe : [ sighs ] well , i 'm not going there right away . i 'm gon na run some errands first . nicole : oh . do you mind if i tag along ? i mean , i do n't really have anything to do right now . chloe : that would be nice . nicole : well , let me help you with this . chloe : no , i got it -- oh . oh . nicole : what 's wrong ? chloe : [ laughs ] nothing . i just felt a kick . oh , i 'm sorry , nicole . i should n't have said anything . nicole : uh , no , i ... it 's fine . i 'm -- i 'm okay , really . i 'm glad you said something . it really is a miracle , is n't it ? chloe : i 'm really happy you 're here . nicole : me too . [ uplifting music ] brady : you know , like most problems in life , i think this one can be settled with a small piece of duct tape -- right over your mouth . no , no , no , listen . i think everybody 's going to agree that you 're talked enough . justin : amen to that . brady , you have the floor . brady : [ sighs ] here 's the other thing i think we can all agree on . you love us , and that 's why you want us here in this house , right ? philip : not all of us . brady : and let 's take a look at that . granddad , think about this . philip betrayed you , right ? so you want him out there . you want him exposed , right ? what does that tell orpheus and xander and all those freaks out there ? it tells them that we 're not a united front . it tells them that they do n't have to go after each one of us . they can just cherry - pick us . they take him out . they kill philip . and then they wait for the next big kiriakis feud to happen , because there always is a next big kiriakis feud , until the next one of us storms off , right ? sonny : which would probably be me . brady : which would give clyde another opportunity at sonny , right ? here 's one for you . how about they go after parker ? how about they go after your grandson ? victor : i never said he could n't stay here . brady : do you really think chloe is going to hand her son over to you and wave good - bye at the doorstep ? no , they will be left out there too . i do n't know about you , but i do n't think those three freaks out there -- orpheus , xander , clyde -- i do n't think they 're gon na draw a moral line in the sand and all of a sudden decide that they 're not gon na go after an innocent little kid . they 're gon na kill him too . you want to be the one to tell maggie that her grandson is dead -- daniel 's son ? but you had a good reason : because chloe ticked you off , because philip gets on your nerves . victor : all right , you 've said enough . brady : listen , i despise that man over there , okay ? i do n't trust him because of what he did to you and because of what he did to maggie . but i made peace with him , because i 'm going to stay in this house , because it 's for the sake of my son . our families -- that 's the safety that we should be thinking about right now , and we 're not . if i can deal with him , you can deal with philip and chloe . we need to put our pasts behind us , gentlemen , and we need to think about the future -- the future of our children . we need to be men . sonny : he 's right . damn it , he 's right . [ dramatic music ] [ phone ringing ] nicole : oh , it 's roman . hey , what 's up ? i figured as much . anything else ? okay , thanks . roman said he could n't trace xander 's call . chloe : oh , i 'm sorry . nicole : you know , i knew it was a shot in the dark . you know , xander was n't gon na make it easy for them . chloe : well , do they have any idea where he or the others might be ? nicole : roman said there 's roadblocks , apbs , but no leads , so they 're somewhere in or around salem . chloe : oh , god help us . okay , you know what ? i have to get going . nicole : okay , good luck . chloe : yeah , living in deimos ' house , seeing victor at breakfast every morning -- i 'm gon na need it . nicole : [ laughing ] okay . [ dramatic music ] dario : you sure you should be out here alone ? nicole : it 's broad daylight . there 's cops everywhere . and i have a bodyguard . dario : i do n't see him . nicole : i asked him to be discreet . dario : still , after everything that happened at the wedding , i think -- nicole : [ stammering ] you know , i do n't want to talk about it , okay ? dario : i get that . nicole , if there 's anything -- anything i can do to help ... justin : hey , you okay ? sonny : uncle vic drives me nuts . justin : [ chuckles ] that sets you apart ? look , if you ca n't do this , i 'll arrange to make sure that you 're safe . sonny : no , i can do it . i think it 's the right thing to do . when uncle vic told me that clyde had me stabbed , it did n't compute at first . but then with everyone screaming at each other , i remembered waking up in the hospital and seeing will . that man tried to have me killed . his son murdered my husband . i will not hide . i want to find him . justin : i know you do . sonny : brady 's right , dad . we ca n't fight each other . we need to fight them . [ dramatic music ] andre : would you excuse me ? eduardo : sure . kate : [ sighs ] i do n't understand why you would be sorry for what clyde weston did . eduardo : well , i guess i just feel responsible for the people i care about . kate : you do n't need to worry about me . i thought you were getting back with your ex - wife . what happened ? eduardo : it got complicated . i had to leave town to deal with a threat against my family , and when i got back , adriana was gone . kate : i 'm sorry about that . eduardo : yeah , are ya ? are you really ? [ dramatic music ] y ! you 're the- kate : i 'm a pretty straightforward person . i generally say what i mean . eduardo : actually , i remember now . kate : so yes , i 'm sorry that your -- your wife left you . does that mean you 're leaving town too ? eduardo : no , no , i ... she did n't call to say good - bye . there 's a message in that , i think . besides , three of my kids still live here , and the granddaughter . i missed too much time with them already when they were growing up . like you , i just feel that family is the most important thing . in fact , at this point , it 's pretty much all i got , so ... i just thought i 'd check in and make sure you were okay . kate : i 'm fine . eduardo : great . i 'll be , uh -- i 'll be seeing you -- seeing you around . listen , before you put your trust in people you should n't , 'cause you need something , maybe , you should come to me . that 's the truth . and so you know , kate , it 's a standing offer . [ foreboding music ] andre : so what was that all about ? philip : you think sonny 's gon na be okay ? brady : he just found out that clyde was behind his stabbing . philip : oh , god , how 'd he find out ? brady : his granddaddy . he knew all along . he told sonny because he was trying to convince him to move into the house . philip : [ sighs ] brady , do you really think we can do this ? all of us living together without going for each other 's throats ? brady : i just think we 're going to have to be what we are not . philip : which means father has to stop being father . do you really think he can control himself with chloe and teresa under the same roof ? brady : no , i have no idea , but i think it would help if you toned it down just a little bit , honestly . philip : not at first . brady , i 'm doing this in the hopes i can get my father back . but it 's gon na take time . if i come with my hat in my hand , servile , he wo n't buy it . even when we get along , we do n't get along . deimos : well , you got what you wanted . philip 's moving in . victor : that 's not what i wanted . you heard what i said . deimos : i saw the performance . but you love your son . under this roof is exactly where you want him . victor : yeah , well , i certainly did n't want chloe here . deimos : no , i did . i want to keep an eye on her . victor : why ? she 's got the personality of a head of cabbage , but not as smart . deimos : you might want to be careful what you say about her . she could be carrying my child . victor : you slept with her ? deimos : that 's usually how it happens , yes . victor : voluntarily ? dear god . philip , brady , daniel -- thank god sonny 's gay . deimos : would n't you rather the child be mine than philip 's ? victor : yes , good luck to you . may the worst man win . sonny : i 'm sorry . brady : sonny , it 's okay . justin : philip , chloe just arrived . victor : let the games begin . philip : hi . chloe : mm , hi . philip : well , let me get your stuff . chloe : yeah , this is it . i 'm hoping we wo n't have to stay that long . philip : uh , i 'm thinking if we 're gon na pull this off , we 're gon na need to share a bedroom . chloe : right . philip : i 'll ask for my old bedroom . it has a sofa . [ suspenseful music ] why am i so devastatingly handsome , i 'm in a fragrance ... deimos : ah , look at the two lovebirds . ca n't keep their hands off each other . chloe , welcome . chloe : thank you , deimos . deimos : and where is parker ? chloe : he 's still in new york with his nanny and my parents . but i 'm gon na go get him later . deimos : i look forward to that . philip : is it all right if we take my old room ? deimos : take any room you want . my house is your house . philip : actually , your house is my father 's house . [ dramatic music ] brady : chloe , welcome . chloe : hi , brady . thank you . philip : father , you remember chloe , do n't you ? victor : hard to forget . chloe , i hope you 're very comfortable here . chloe : thank you , victor . you know , i 'm kind of tired . is there any way we can go up to our room ? philip : sure . [ dramatic music ] kate : eddie wanted to , uh , make sure i was all right after last night . he seems to think he 's responsible somehow . andre : responsible for what weston did ? kate : it seems very weird to me too . i think he 's hiding something . i 'm gon na find out what it is . nicole : i just wish everyone would stop worrying about me . dario : i get that . i get that you 're a strong , capable , independent woman , but there are three killers out there on the loose , and one of them has a score to settle with you , so yeah , i 'm gon na worry about you and do whatever i can to help . nicole : i know , but i do n't -- i do n't -- dario : listen . we 're friends , right ? nicole : mm - hmm . dario : friends help each other . nicole : yes , you 're right , yes . dario : so if you need anything , you call . promise ? nicole : promise . brady : so we 're all in agreement ? we 're gon na do this thing ? then i 'd like to propose a toast .

chloe talked to nicole about moving into the kiriakis mansion . nicole did n't think it was a good idea that she move in with deimos knowing that she is carrying his baby . chloe reminded nicole that it would be suspicious if philip moved in the mansion without her . the kiriakis men talked about the prisoners coming after them . they wanted to work together to stop them . victor wanted everyone to move in to the mansion . sonny did n't want to move in with the family and then victor told him that clyde had him stabbed . while they were talking , philip arrived at the mansion . victor wanted to know what he was doing there . deimos let victor know that he was moving back in the mansion . victor reminded everyone that philip betrayed him . deimos told him that he was able to forgive him . victor and philip ended up arguing . chloe thought that nicole should move in to the mansion too . nicole did n't want to move in there because she was n't ready to live with deimos .

[ ominous music ] [ cocks gun ] dario : what makes you think i 'm looking for deimos ? eduardo : oh , i do n't know , maybe it was when you said , `` whatever you say , mr. kiriakis . `` dario : is there an eavesdropping course in assassin school ? eduardo : hey , how can you be kissing up to that guy after all the things he 's done ? dario : you know , i really love these father - son chit - chats that we have . eduardo : listen to me . deimos kiriakis is a dangerous man . you may think you 're in his league , but you 're not . dario : you know , all this deimos - bashing -- i do n't think it 's out of concern for my welfare . i think it 's because deimos stole the beautiful ms . roberts from you . so i guess you 're not in his league either . kate : what are you doing sneaking up behind me ? i could 've shot you . andre : so i noticed . i heard you had an encounter with mr. weston last night . it must have been terrifying . kate : no . no , i was n't scared . i was mad . [ stammering ] oh ... it was nerve- wracking . andre : let 's talk about that , but after you lay down your arms . kate : oh , sorry . andre : well , i 'm glad that you 're packing . hell hath no fury like a redneck scorned . kate : i was such a fool to get involved with that man . andre : [ inaudible ] we 've all had the experience of being attracted to the wrong person . kate : yeah , well , i 'd like to be able to say that i sensed something under that good old boy exterior -- something -- andre : what , a cesspool ? kate : he was so terrible last night . he said terrible things . he admitted changing the paternity test so it would look like ben was thomas 's father . it 's all so sick . i almost feel sorry for ben . andre : you feel sorry for the man who killed your grandson ? kate : clyde made ben the monster that he is . chad has to be careful . i was secondary . chad and thomas -- they 're clyde 's primary targets . andre : the dimera mansion has been upgraded to a fortress . i do n't think chad would let anything happen to that little boy . kate : i just wish he 'd killed clyde when he had the chance . andre : what -- where are you going ? kate : i 'm hungry . i 'm gon na get something to eat . andre : clyde weston is still at large , and you 're going out to lunch ? kate : well , i 'm not gon na take the covers and pull 'em over my head and hide , now , am i ? look , i tried to hire extra security . the kiriakises have hired every able - bodied security person in the midwest , so ... andre : perhaps i could join you . kate : oh , do you think i need you to protect me ? andre : no , i was thinking that i need you to protect me . kate : ah . andre : [ chuckles ] [ tense music ] chloe : well , great . i 'm walking into a big trap . thanks for that pep talk , nicole -- the moral support . nicole : chloe , you are going to have deimos ' baby . he already thinks you and philip are lying . why else do you think he wants you to move into that house ? and please do n't give me any crap that he 's worried about everyone 's safety . chloe : i do n't know . philip wants to . he wants to make peace with his father . nicole : uh - huh . we 've established now how this benefits deimos . how does it help philip ? and what do you get out of it ? [ sighs ] chloe , honey , listen to me . you need to hear me right now . moving into that house under these circumstances -- it sounds like something i would do . chloe : well , now you 're just trying to scare me . you know what ? i am scared . i do n't know -- i do n't know if i can pull this off . you know deimos . he 's so good at reading people , especially women -- especially me . nicole : okay , then do n't do this . chloe : [ sighs ] well , i -- i do n't have a choice . i mean , if philip moves in there and i do n't , then this whole story of us finding each other and reconnecting is just gon na blow up in my face . nicole : yeah , okay , i did n't think of it that way . chloe : i do n't want to do this , but i think that i need to , okay ? and i am scared . nicole : well , then , a promise is a promise . i will back you any way i can . chloe : okay , well , then , i want you to do more than that . i want you to take deimos up on his offer . we should both move in . justin : here you go . victor : no , thank you . we need to keep our wits about us . brady : maggie said it would be easier for all of us to talk together honestly in private . justin : i agree with her . sonny : is maggie here ? brady : and theresa and tate . so my whole family 's moved in , so obviously i think it 's a pretty good idea . deimos : there 's plenty of room for you and your father . sonny : eh , no , no . i 'm not gon na do that . i just moved , you know ? i 'm not gon na move again . victor : that 's a lame excuse . sonny : well , i thought it was a lot nicer than saying i do n't want all of you breathing down my neck , asking me innocent questions about my social life and if i 'm dating . and frankly , deimos , i do n't like you or trust you . and i 'm kind of disappointed that uncle vic turned around so quickly . victor : if i can put up with him , so can you . sonny : i just do n't want to . victor : you have to do this for your family . justin : uncle vic , he 's a grown man . victor : he 's in danger . sonny : i will look both ways before i cross the street . victor : clyde weston tried to kill you once . sonny : what ? victor : he 's the one that had you stabbed last year , and he 's gon na try and kill you again . i ca n't lose you , sonny . i just ca n't . music : suspenseful to do with kate . this is about you . i do n't want you to be deimos ' errand boy , or anybody else 's , for that matter . dario : i could n't care less about what you think . i can learn from him . i can become something better than a glorified bartender . eduardo : yeah , yeah . everybody wants a path to something better . i get that . but believe me , deimos is not the way . better you should come work for me . dario : i already do . eduardo : oh , i do n't mean the bar . dario : then what the hell are you talking about ? eduardo : i ca n't really get into it now . but you be smart . i 'll be in touch . [ foreboding music ] nicole : you 're trying to talk me into moving in with victor ? a man i do n't like and do n't trust ? chloe : well , think of all the time that you get to spend with parker . nicole : well , that 's below the belt . chloe : [ sighs ] i 'm sorry , nicole . i just -- i need your help . come on , deimos ca n't find out that philip and i are not really -- nicole : lying ? chloe : and he definitely ca n't find out that this baby 's his . you know that . nicole : chloe , i would do anything for you -- anything but move into that house . oh , okay , okay . look , i know that you and philip can do this . but when it comes to deimos , i do n't know what the hell i 'm doing . sonny : if you all knew clyde had me stabbed , why did n't anyone tell me ? justin : we did n't all know that . so you made a unilateral decision to keep this information from us . victor : damn well right i did . you were still in the hospital . i could n't see how it could help to tell you , and it certainly could hurt . you 've been through so much . then when weston went to prison , i figured that was it . well , now he 's out . i need to know you 're safe , sonny -- all of you . sonny : i hate that you always get what you want . victor : thank you -- and thank you . justin : really ? you 're thanking deimos for letting us live in the house he extorted in exchange for maggie 's life ? victor : if i can come to terms with the past , so can you , justin . right now , i 'm more concerned about the present . we have to stop talking . we have to get the whole family under one roof . philip : does that include me ? [ dramatic music ] i had that dream again -- andre : you 're a remarkable woman . i mean , last night , you had a near - death experience . today , it 's martinis and cheeseburgers . kate : martinis and cheeseburgers and a gun in my purse . but you know , i do n't think even clyde weston has the temerity to burst into brady pub in broad daylight [ cell phone beeps ] kate : it 's chad . he knows i 'm worried about him . he keeps texting me to let me know that he and thomas are fine . andre : you two are close . kate : of course we are . his daddy blackmailed me into marriage . we 're family . andre : ah , it 's more than that . you 're always taking him under your wing . i 'm very happy about that . kate ... [ sighs ] because you two are so close , i was wondering if you could coordinate a rapprochement . kate : you want to be part of his family ? you want to be there for him ? [ dramatic music ] you know , if tony had asked me that question , i would have had no problem answering yes . chloe : i 'm sorry . i know that i 'm being selfish . i 'm just looking at it from my own point of view . nicole : neither one of us is known for our altruism . but still , i -- i just need to keep a certain distance from deimos . chloe : well , all my reasoning is n't selfish . i mean , as long as xander 's still out there , you 're not safe . nicole : i 'll be careful . and deimos got security for me , so i do n't want you to worry about me . i want you to worry about parker and the baby . chloe : are you really afraid of deimos ? nicole : i 'm afraid of ... making another painful mistake . i 'm afraid of his intensity . and i 'm afraid of my truly frightening track record . chloe : do you think that he 's really in love with you ? nicole : even if he is , i -- i still ca n't trust him . victor : what are you doing here ? philip : good to see you too , pops . deimos : philip , hello . where 's chloe ? victor : wait -- chloe ? philip : she 'll be here a little later . deimos : yes , with everything going on , i did n't have a chance to tell you . i invited philip to move in too , with chloe and parker , of course . victor : you did n't tell me because you knew how i 'd react . i wo n't have it . deimos : victor , philip 's sin , in your eyes , is that he worked for me . if you can forgive me , why ca n't you forgive him ? victor : because there 's a difference . he 's my son , and he betrayed me . maybe when you have a son , you 'll understand . justin : you just said the whole family is in danger . well , philip is family . if he ca n't stay , neither can i . philip : thanks . victor : oh , this has nothing to do with you , justin . this is between me and my son . deimos : no , this is a family decision , victor . and not only are you greatly outnumbered , but maggie wants philip here too . so you can at least do this for her . victor : does she know his concubine is included in the package ? brady : oh , jeez . philip : chloe 's not a concubine , and she 's not part of the package . she 's part of my life . victor : then god help you . philip : i do n't care how you treat me , but you will treat chloe with respect . victor : respect ? for that -- justin : victor , victor -- philip : listen , you old , smug , hypocritical -- victor : do n't call me old . philip : if you do n't treat chloe with respect -- if you do n't make parker feel welcome -- i 'll call you anything i damn well please .. victor : you see ? we 've been here for two minutes , and already we 're at each other 's throats . justin : let 's get some air , okay ? we need some air . victor : i do n't need air . i need him gone . philip : do you think i want to be under the same roof as you ? justin : you need to stay calm for maggie 's sake , okay ? deimos : no , what he needs to do is remember that he 's a guest in my house . sonny : all right , this -- victor : in your house ? deimos : yes , my house . victor : this is my house . you stole it from me . justin : victor -- victor : you poisoned maggie , and then you bartered for her life . deimos : it does n't matter how i got it , it 's my house . justin : calm down , victor !

[ dramatic music ] [ phone ringing ] nicole : oh , it 's roman . hey , what 's up ? i figured as much . anything else ? okay , thanks . roman said he could n't trace xander 's call . chloe : oh , i 'm sorry . nicole : you know , i knew it was a shot in the dark . you know , xander was n't gon na make it easy for them . chloe : well , do they have any idea where he or the others might be ? nicole : roman said there 's roadblocks , apbs , but no leads , so they 're somewhere in or around salem . chloe : oh , god help us . okay , you know what ? i have to get going . nicole : okay , good luck . chloe : yeah , living in deimos ' house , seeing victor at breakfast every morning -- i 'm gon na need it . nicole : [ laughing ] okay . [ dramatic music ] dario : you sure you should be out here alone ? nicole : it 's broad daylight . there 's cops everywhere . and i have a bodyguard . dario : i do n't see him . nicole : i asked him to be discreet . dario : still , after everything that happened at the wedding , i think -- nicole : [ stammering ] you know , i do n't want to talk about it , okay ? dario : i get that . nicole , if there 's anything -- anything i can do to help ... justin : hey , you okay ? sonny : uncle vic drives me nuts . justin : [ chuckles ] that sets you apart ? look , if you ca n't do this , i 'll arrange to make sure that you 're safe . sonny : no , i can do it . i think it 's the right thing to do . when uncle vic told me that clyde had me stabbed , it did n't compute at first . but then with everyone screaming at each other , i remembered waking up in the hospital and seeing will . that man tried to have me killed . his son murdered my husband . i will not hide . i want to find him . justin : i know you do . sonny : brady 's right , dad . we ca n't fight each other . we need to fight them . [ dramatic music ] andre : would you excuse me ? eduardo : sure . kate : [ sighs ] i do n't understand why you would be sorry for what clyde weston did . eduardo : well , i guess i just feel responsible for the people i care about . kate : you do n't need to worry about me . i thought you were getting back with your ex - wife . what happened ? eduardo : it got complicated . i had to leave town to deal with a threat against my family , and when i got back , adriana was gone . kate : i 'm sorry about that . eduardo : yeah , are ya ? are you really ? [ dramatic music ] y ! you 're the- kate : i 'm a pretty straightforward person . i generally say what i mean . eduardo : actually , i remember now . kate : so yes , i 'm sorry that your -- your wife left you . does that mean you 're leaving town too ? eduardo : no , no , i ... she did n't call to say good - bye . there 's a message in that , i think . besides , three of my kids still live here , and the granddaughter . i missed too much time with them already when they were growing up . like you , i just feel that family is the most important thing . in fact , at this point , it 's pretty much all i got , so ... i just thought i 'd check in and make sure you were okay . kate : i 'm fine . eduardo : great . i 'll be , uh -- i 'll be seeing you -- seeing you around . listen , before you put your trust in people you should n't , 'cause you need something , maybe , you should come to me . that 's the truth . and so you know , kate , it 's a standing offer . [ foreboding music ] andre : so what was that all about ? philip : you think sonny 's gon na be okay ? brady : he just found out that clyde was behind his stabbing . philip : oh , god , how 'd he find out ? brady : his granddaddy . he knew all along . he told sonny because he was trying to convince him to move into the house . philip : [ sighs ] brady , do you really think we can do this ? all of us living together without going for each other 's throats ? brady : i just think we 're going to have to be what we are not . philip : which means father has to stop being father . do you really think he can control himself with chloe and teresa under the same roof ? brady : no , i have no idea , but i think it would help if you toned it down just a little bit , honestly . philip : not at first . brady , i 'm doing this in the hopes i can get my father back . but it 's gon na take time . if i come with my hat in my hand , servile , he wo n't buy it . even when we get along , we do n't get along . deimos : well , you got what you wanted . philip 's moving in . victor : that 's not what i wanted . you heard what i said . deimos : i saw the performance . but you love your son . under this roof is exactly where you want him . victor : yeah , well , i certainly did n't want chloe here . deimos : no , i did . i want to keep an eye on her . victor : why ? she 's got the personality of a head of cabbage , but not as smart . deimos : you might want to be careful what you say about her . she could be carrying my child . victor : you slept with her ? deimos : that 's usually how it happens , yes . victor : voluntarily ? dear god . philip , brady , daniel -- thank god sonny 's gay . deimos : would n't you rather the child be mine than philip 's ? victor : yes , good luck to you . may the worst man win . sonny : i 'm sorry . brady : sonny , it 's okay . justin : philip , chloe just arrived . victor : let the games begin . philip : hi . chloe : mm , hi . philip : well , let me get your stuff . chloe : yeah , this is it . i 'm hoping we wo n't have to stay that long . philip : uh , i 'm thinking if we 're gon na pull this off , we 're gon na need to share a bedroom . chloe : right . philip : i 'll ask for my old bedroom . it has a sofa .

( chuckles ) good night . ashley : good night . nick : good night . ashley : so before i go off to tucker 's hearing , did you ever hear back from the lab about the envelope the photo came in ? nick : yeah , i dropped it off , but it 's gon na be a couple days before they can tell if there 's any d.n.a . or fingerprints . ashley : okay . nick : but in the meantime , ashley , you 've got ta stay calm . ashley : okay , i 'm trying . i 'm trying . nick : all right . once they figure out who killed diane , this is all gon na work out . ashley : well , i hope you 're right . [ scene_break ] judge kelsey : i 've read dr. kenna 's report , which was very favorable . in his opinion and in mine mr. mccall is sufficiently recovered to run his empire once again . tucker : thank you , your honor . nelson : we 'd -- we 'd also like a ruling on the pending sale of jabot cosmetics to chancellor industries . judge kelsey : i take it you want me to void the deal . nelson : until mr. mccall can evaluate the transaction and make his own decision . kay : your -- your honor he has signed off on the deal already . i ca n't understand why he would want it reversed . [ scene_break ] heather : when i was with the d.a .

( sighs ) nor is he the most meticulous cop i 've ever seen . and that 's where i would come in as your eyes and ears . paul : you need a case that 's legally flawless . and with heather focusing on the legal aspects , you 'll have an even greater chance of getting a quick conviction . spencer : we need to win this one . once you make an arrest , which i 'd like to be yesterday . heather : so ... does that mean i 'm hired ? spencer : we 'll give it a try . [ scene_break ] ashley : what the hell are we gon na do ? nick : we 'll tell malloy the truth , as much as we can anyway .

( tape fast - forwards ) ashley : we need to get word to tucker and phyllis , tell them they have to go along with the new story . ( tape fast - forwards ) ashley : should we hire a lawyer , see how much trouble we 're really in ? nick : malloy 's got nothing on us , and he seemed to buy our story . ashley : then i guess i wo n't worry -- for now , anyway . ronan : ( chuckles ) ( clicks stop button ) you might want to rethink that lawyer decision .

( sighs ) it 's a sales agreement -- `` voluntary liquidation of mccall assets to chancellor industries in exchange for cash . `` and you will find his signature at the bottom -- august 18 , 2011 . judge kelsey : let mr. mccall and his attorney have a look . judge kelsey : is that your signature ? mr. mccall , is that your signature , or is n't it ? either you are competent and have approved the sale of jabot , or you 're not , in which case , mrs. chancellor may approve it . which is it ?

heather returns home and has a confrontation with ronan because she is mad that he refuses to explain why he left soon after his surgery . heather decides that even if ronan did explain she would n't believe a word he said to her . paul tells heather that he is consulting on diane 's murder case and is ronan 's partner . heather meets with the da and asks him to hire her to work on the legal aspect of the case and the da decides to give heather a job on a trial basis . ronan meets with nick and ashley and interrogates them again . ronan tells them that if they do n't tell him the truth he will have no choice but to arrest them . ronan gets a phone call and leaves nick and ashley alone to talk but nick and ashley are unaware that ronan has hidden a tape recorder in his briefcase which he has left in the booth and the tape recorder records nick and ashley discussing that they will tell ronan they were at the park that night just walking by and ashley dropped her phone and nick called her because he wanted to find out if she knew where abby was but ashley did n't know where abby could be . ashley and nick also think that phyllis and tucker could have had something to do with diane 's death and they decide to protect them . ashley and nick decide to tell tucker and phyllis the new cover story . ronan later listens to the recording on the tape recorder , which adds strength to his theory that ashley , tucker , nick , and phyllis , worked together to kill diane .

[ scene_break ] bill : given what you two went through , it would be easy to misinterpret steffy 's gratitude . liam : so you think she 's still in love with you ill : ( sighs ) i 'm grateful for what you did . you acted decisively , and i 'm proud of you . you saved steffy 's life . but if she is showing any interest in you beyond gratitude , i am telling you it 's a reaction to what happened between the two of us . liam : yeah , okay . so it 's not about me . it 's about you . bill : stay focused on hope , kid . liam : i am , dad . believe me , i am . bill : you did something remarkable . liam : ( sighs ) bill : you gave steffy her life back . now give her space and time to heal . liam : what about you ? bill : what about me ? liam : will you give her a chance to heal ?

andré : oh , come on . you 're a decent fellow . a good egg , as they say . do you really want to throw your career away because of hope brady ? rafe : like i said , i 've got real work to do . so if you 'd like to file a complaint , you can do it with the desk sergeant . andré : what , you do n't want to see the evidence of foul play ?

andré : you ca n't be that sanguine about this . the dna tests will prove -- rafe : it 's stefano 's house . his dna is probably all over the place . is n't he also a diabetic ? so he 's got to prick his finger at least once a day and draw blood , so it would n't be surprising that his blood is around his house . andré : on an art piece ? far away from the bathroom ? the master bathroom ? rafe : it 'd be pretty easy for him to get a tiny bit of blood anywhere . and it certainly does n't prove that hope brady is guilty of anything . andré : she chose well , assuming it 's you . hope 's coconspirator . she 's not worth saving , detective . rafe : like i said , if you want to file a complaint , the desk sergeant will take your statement . roman : talk to me . what is the problem ?

[ scene_break ] melanie : what do you think is going on with ej and nicole ? brady : look , forget about it . forget about it . just -- did anybody say anything at the hospital about nicole , like , where she was ? melanie : no . brady : [ sighs ] she 's probably at the house , maybe . melanie : oh , no . did ej find out you 're still in love with his wife ? is that why you 're worried ? brady : uh ... look , there 's a lot of things that ... i ca n't go into right now . but bottom line , i may think ej 's an ass , okay ? but nicole loves him ... and they have a baby together , and she loves her life . so i 'm gon na do whatever i can to make sure it stays that way . [ scene_break ] nicole : i - i - i 'm not staring at you in any way , sami . it -- it 's just that there 's a lot going on with stefano . and , ej , i really think your daughter wants her daddy . ej : just take the baby and leave with it . nicole : but -- ej : go . uh , would you give nicole sydney , please ? sami : nicole , i think she 's super tired . i tried to put her down , but i do n't know what your sleep schedule is and everything . and i could n't figure it out . and i gave her your sweater . that was the only thing that , you know , seemed to soothe her , and ... nicole : i think she really needs her daddy . sydney : [ babbling ] sami : ej . why do n't you tell me what 's going on ? okay , so now you can tell me what 's going on with you and nicole . ej : i 'm sorry . i 'm -- samantha , i ca n't do this , all right ? my father 's out there . he could die . sami : but it wo n't make a difference if you take a brief break from your bedside vigil . you heard your sister . lexie told you to go home . ej : well , i ca n't go home . sami : because of nicole ? ej : samantha , i really do n't want to discuss my ... i really do n't want to discuss nicole with you . sami : you 're doing it again . ej : what am i doing again ? sami : changing your words . do n't tell me nothing 's wrong . i know you better than that . ej : that 's right . you do . you know me better than anybody . you know more than anybody else how i hate to be lied to ... how i ca n't tolerate betrayal of any kind . sami : what did nicole do ? ej : she lied to me ... about the same thing you did . and now i 've lost another daughter .

rick : so , you hit on sasha ? zende : i did n't hit on her . rick : really ? you just took her to hawaii ? maya : you slept with her , zende . zende : look , i regret that more than either of you know . i was a mess . but the woman that i loved , the one that i waited for , the one that i want to spend the rest of my life with , is n't sasha . it 's nicole . it will always be nicole . nicole : sorry . i ... did n't know you were in here . rick : no , it 's okay . come on in . we wanted to talk to you anyway . nicole : i can come back . maya : no , no , no . stay . nicole : hi . zende : hi . nicole : so , what 's up ? rick : thanksgiving . nicole : what about it ? rick : dad wants everybody at the house . nicole : mom and dad wo n't be there . she 's got the flu , and dad wants to stay with her . zende : that 's too bad . grandfather wanted all the families together , despite what happened . maya : your grandfather 's had a tough year . rick : yeah . you know , i know we 're all a little less than crazy about sitting down and having dinner with quinn , but ... i think it 's the right thing to do , do n't you ? zende : thanksgiving -- it 's all about forgiveness , right ? rick : yeah ... and putting aside our differences for the holidays . maya , you think , uh , we should ... ? maya : yeah . right . we have work to do . we will leave you alone . steffy : let 's see . we got a lot of forresters here -- nine by my count . eric : yeah ? let me see . pam : any out - of - towners ? steffy : no , not this year . eric : no , there 's 10 forresters . you only have nine . you 're leaving quinn out . steffy : right . quinn : the list looks wonderful , steffy . well done . pam : now , are you sure that all these names are gon na actually show ?

steffy : went to the store to get ingredients . quinn : liam , i presume ? steffy : he just wants to know what time dinner is . what do you want to talk to me about ? quinn : that . steffy : quinn , no . i do n't -- quinn : look , steffy , i am not trying to interfere in your life . steffy : then let 's not talk about my life . we have a truce for the holidays . let 's not threaten it , okay ? quinn : point taken . but i have a son , and he lives here and he 's suffering . steffy : [ sighs ] where is he going instead ? quinn : he said something about driving up the coast . steffy ... we have so much to be thankful for this year -- i mean , your grandfather 's health . the company is doing so great . this should be a big , huge family celebration . but i 'm not gon na be happy knowing that wyatt is out there alone , and i 'm sure that 's not what you want for him . steffy : he 's just being stubborn . quinn : i think -- i think he 's being honest . can you imagine how hard it would be for him to sit across the table from you and liam ?

steffy : i need help with thanksgiving . wyatt : i 'm more of a steak guy , so if you 're not serving steak , i just do n't think i could show up . steffy : no . the help i need is your presence at the table . wyatt : mom told you , huh ?

you understand ? that 's a little overrated , do n't you think ? i mean , i understand the way you feel about my brother , but that does n't make it better . it actually kind of makes it worse . steffy : maybe . i do n't know . maybe it will be helpful -- i know not short- term , but ... maybe it will help us understand why this all happened . wyatt : i 'd like to think ... what happened was because of the way we felt for each other . steffy : yeah , yeah . that , too , of course . wyatt : that 's not just , like , a footnote , steffy . what we had was amazing , or i thought it was . i mean , or was it a lie , i mean , or like some game of pretend ? `` oh , you know , i 'm gon na pretend to be in love with wyatt . `` steffy : wyatt , that was real . it was real . wyatt : okay . just not real enough . steffy : you know this was because of your mom . wyatt : my mom . my mom . i know . she just -- she put all the pieces in place , right ? but when she did ... what we had together ... i mean , that was -- that was something , was n't it ? maya : you know , i never fully realized how one simple question could cause so much havoc . rick : i did n't , either . maya : all i could see was the smile on my baby girl 's face . and i thought that giving her a sibling would make that smile grow . and now i 'm worried that i ruined my sister 's life . i mean , nicole loves zende so much . rick : baby , we just got to pray that they 're gon na find a way to overcome this . zende : tell me you believe that , nicole . it 's true . you 're the only woman i want . nicole : how can i ? you were with sasha . i walked in on you two in bed . how do i forget that ? you must have had feelings for her . it 's not like you to just -- zende : i wo n't make excuses . but i was hurt , confused . we were planning a life together , or at least i thought we were . children someday -- you know , we both wanted that , right ? but your heart -- your heart was so big ... you wanted to be there for your sister again , give her another child . look , i know what i did was selfish , but the thought of watching you go through another pregnancy , it was like -- it was like everything i so desperately wanted , you did n't want anymore . nicole : and sasha was there ? zende : yes , she was . all right ? she listened to me . she made me laugh . she was a good friend to me . nicole : a friend ? zende , you knew what she wanted , what she 's always wanted -- you . she wanted you when i was pregnant . you know what that did to me . it almost destroyed us . and this time , it did . zende : no . no . nicole , look ... nothing is going to destroy us . i wo n't let that happen . nicole : it already has , zende . zende : no , it has n't . i never stopped loving you -- never . look , i regret the way i handled things , truly , but , you know , our situation -- it 's rather unique . i mean , we are unique . the fact that i 'm fighting for us right now , you 've got to know what that means -- that you are the only woman i will ever love . nicole : [ voice breaking ] zende ... i know you want to believe that . god knows i want to believe it , too . but i ca n't . it 's words , zende -- just words . zende : you need more than words ?

quinn : mm - hmm . eric : tomorrow . quinn : mm - hmm . eric : tomorrow ... is thanksgiving . quinn : ha ! and we have so much to be thankful for , do n't we ? eric : yeah . and at the top of my list are you and steffy putting aside your differences so that our family can share this day tomorrow . quinn : yes . i just hope wyatt is here to share with us . steffy : our marriage was something else . wyatt : something else good or something else bad ? steffy : something else wonderful . and i do n't regret one day of it . i do n't have any bad feelings for you , okay ? our memories -- i will cherish that forever . it 's just the circumstances . wyatt : what -- what do circumstances have to do with this ? what is a circumstance , anyway ? steffy : a situation that affects something -- in this case , your mom . wyatt : `` a , `` i know the definition of `` circumstance . `` steffy : okay . wyatt : `` b , `` what -- what should have affected the situation was how we felt about each other . steffy : and we 've always had those feelings from the very beginning . but before that , i was in love with your brother , and if it had n't been for your mom 's dirty tricks -- kidnapping liam , making me thing that it was over between us -- we would n't have been married , and ... honestly , we probably sh -- wyatt : should n't have ? is that what you were gon na say ? is that what you -- is that what you honestly believe , steffy ? because i do n't . being married to you was the best time of my life . and i know ... up until that point , i have a feeling ... that you felt that way , too . but i guess that 's water over the dam or under the bridge , evaporated into thin air . i ... i guess you want my brother now . but you should know that ... steffy : know what ? wyatt : ... i miss you . and do i wish we were back together ? i do n't know . what do you think ? steffy : [ crying ] look , um ... i do n't want to make things awkward , uh , between us , and liam does n't want that , either , so can we just , um , start fresh -- a new beginning ? and that can start tomorrow at dinner . just tell me you 'll be there . wyatt : [ chuckles softly ] maybe ... i can stop by . steffy : really ? wyatt : maybe . i mean , i would n't want to miss out on a thanksgiving mystery seating chart or whatever . steffy : [ sighs ] thank you . nicole : i do n't know what you have there , zende , but do n't even open it . zende : why ? nicole : i ca n't trust you . i certainly do n't need you giving me jewelry . zende : so , you 're sure it 's jewelry ? well , come to thanksgiving tomorrow . you 're family , all right ? we 'll show them this . we 'll tell them what we have . nicole : there 's nothing to tell them . that story ended when i saw you and sasha together . zende : look , i 'm sorry , but that 's unacceptable , okay ? we 'll tell them that we 're engaged ... that we want to get married and that we love each other and the fact that we can overcome anything and that we want a future and a life and a family and the next child that you have will be our child , nicole . all right . say you 'll marry me . say yes . nicole : [ crying ] i ca n't , zende . i ca n't . zende : at least come to thanksgiving tomorrow . it 's important to my granddad . he wants to be surrounded by family , and you are my family , nicole . i 'll have this with me . i understand you do n't want to accept it today . i get that . but you will be my wife , nicole .

let me see . pam : any out - of - towners ? steffy : no , not this year . eric : no , there 's 10 forresters . you only have nine . you 're leaving quinn out . steffy : right . quinn : the list looks wonderful , steffy . well done . pam : now , are you sure that all these names are gon na actually show ? steffy : yeah . everyone 's gon na be here -- no excuses . everyone knows it 's granddad 's special day . quinn : well , i know one person who 's not going be here . steffy : who ? quinn : wyatt . quinn : where 's pam ? steffy : went to the store to get ingredients . quinn : liam , i presume ? steffy : he just wants to know what time dinner is . what do you want to talk to me about ? quinn : that . steffy : quinn , no . i do n't -- quinn : look , steffy , i am not trying to interfere in your life . steffy : then let 's not talk about my life . we have a truce for the holidays . let 's not threaten it , okay ? quinn : point taken . but i have a son , and he lives here and he 's suffering . steffy : [ sighs ] where is he going instead ? quinn : he said something about driving up the coast . steffy ... we have so much to be thankful for this year -- i mean , your grandfather 's health . the company is doing so great . this should be a big , huge family celebration . but i 'm not gon na be happy knowing that wyatt is out there alone , and i 'm sure that 's not what you want for him . steffy : he 's just being stubborn . quinn : i think -- i think he 's being honest . can you imagine how hard it would be for him to sit across the table from you and liam ? steffy : well , he 's just gon na have to get over it , okay ? quinn : well ... he will . and ... tomorrow will be a start . and i know that i want him there , and i know eric does , too . steffy : so , what are you asking ? quinn : something i probably have no right to ask . can you please talk to him ? in the spirit of family and tradition , ask him to join us for thanksgiving dinner . i think you 're the only one who 's gon na get through to him . maya : you know , i do n't care about zende 's justification . yes , nicole should have spoken to him before she agreed to be our surrogate , but for him to react that way and with sasha ? rick : i know . i know . look , i agree . baby , it 's thanksgiving . it 's time to forgive , right ? maya : yeah . i just hope nicole can forgive zende . zende : how you doing ? nicole : wish i could say , `` great , `` but i wo n't lie . i 'm still pretty hurt . you ? zende : i 'm not exactly looking forward to the holidays . nicole : me , neither . zende : you were pregnant this time last year . nicole : we were together . zende : you know we should be together this year , too , nicole . nicole : zende -- zende : look , if i could go back and undo the last couple of weeks , i would , but i ca n't . but what you heard me say to rick and maya -- i meant that , nicole . i love you -- only you . pam : unsalted . good for the blood pressure . quinn : hey , hey , hey . you 're supposed to be resting . eric : i 'll rest after tomorrow . i see you got through to steffy . quinn : yeah , well , let 's see if she can get through to wyatt . wyatt : you rang . i 'm here . what 's up ? steffy : i need help with thanksgiving . wyatt : i 'm more of a steak guy , so if you 're not serving steak , i just do n't think i could show up . steffy : no . the help i need is your presence at the table . wyatt : mom told you , huh ? steffy : yeah . she said something about you driving up the coast ... by yourself . wyatt : yeah . i mean , i figure once i get past santa barbara , the roads will be clear , so it 'll be fun . steffy : come on . you belong here with family . wyatt : i mean , that 's -- that 's -- that 's a cozy thought . fireplace going , everybody sitting around the table , talking about what they 're thankful for , and then there 's me , sitting across the table from you and liam . you know , i think i 'll pass . steffy : wyatt , i want you here . wyatt : [ chuckles softly ] look , i - i get why we did n't work ... but , please , do n't make me suffer through that . it is way too soon for that . it 'll always be too soon . steffy : [ sighs ] i know you do n't want to be here tomorrow . both liam and i understand how difficult this is for you . wyatt : understand ? you understand ? that 's a little overrated , do n't you think ? i mean , i understand the way you feel about my brother , but that does n't make it better . it actually kind of makes it worse . steffy : maybe . i do n't know . maybe it will be helpful -- i know not short- term , but ... maybe it will help us understand why this all happened . wyatt : i 'd like to think ... what happened was because of the way we felt for each other . steffy : yeah , yeah . that , too , of course . wyatt : that 's not just , like , a footnote , steffy . what we had was amazing , or i thought it was . i mean , or was it a lie , i mean , or like some game of pretend ? `` oh , you know , i 'm gon na pretend to be in love with wyatt . `` steffy : wyatt , that was real . it was real . wyatt : okay . just not real enough . steffy : you know this was because of your mom . wyatt : my mom . my mom . i know . she just -- she put all the pieces in place , right ? but when she did ... what we had together ... i mean , that was -- that was something , was n't it ? maya : you know , i never fully realized how one simple question could cause so much havoc . rick : i did n't , either . maya : all i could see was the smile on my baby girl 's face . and i thought that giving her a sibling would make that smile grow . and now i 'm worried that i ruined my sister 's life . i mean , nicole loves zende so much . rick : baby , we just got to pray that they 're gon na find a way to overcome this . zende : tell me you believe that , nicole . it 's true . you 're the only woman i want . nicole : how can i ? you were with sasha . i walked in on you two in bed . how do i forget that ? you must have had feelings for her . it 's not like you to just -- zende : i wo n't make excuses . but i was hurt , confused . we were planning a life together , or at least i thought we were . children someday -- you know , we both wanted that , right ? but your heart -- your heart was so big ... you wanted to be there for your sister again , give her another child . look , i know what i did was selfish , but the thought of watching you go through another pregnancy , it was like -- it was like everything i so desperately wanted , you did n't want anymore . nicole : and sasha was there ? zende : yes , she was . all right ? she listened to me . she made me laugh . she was a good friend to me . nicole : a friend ? zende , you knew what she wanted , what she 's always wanted -- you . she wanted you when i was pregnant . you know what that did to me . it almost destroyed us . and this time , it did . zende : no . no . nicole , look ... nothing is going to destroy us . i wo n't let that happen . nicole : it already has , zende . zende : no , it has n't . i never stopped loving you -- never . look , i regret the way i handled things , truly , but , you know , our situation -- it 's rather unique . i mean , we are unique . the fact that i 'm fighting for us right now , you 've got to know what that means -- that you are the only woman i will ever love . nicole : [ voice breaking ] zende ... i know you want to believe that . god knows i want to believe it , too . but i ca n't . it 's words , zende -- just words . zende : you need more than words ? i 'll give you more than words . eric : all righty . quinn : wait , do n't ! no ! eric : what ? it 's a corner piece . it 's a corner piece . quinn : maybe tomorrow . eric : maybe tomorrow ? quinn : tomorrow . eric : it 's gon na be like this , huh ? quinn : mm - hmm . eric : tomorrow . quinn : mm - hmm . eric : tomorrow ... is thanksgiving . quinn : ha ! and we have so much to be thankful for , do n't we ? eric : yeah . and at the top of my list are you and steffy putting aside your differences so that our family can share this day tomorrow . quinn : yes . i just hope wyatt is here to share with us . steffy : our marriage was something else . wyatt : something else good or something else bad ? steffy : something else wonderful . and i do n't regret one day of it . i do n't have any bad feelings for you , okay ? our memories -- i will cherish that forever . it 's just the circumstances . wyatt : what -- what do circumstances have to do with this ? what is a circumstance , anyway ? steffy : a situation that affects something -- in this case , your mom . wyatt : `` a , `` i know the definition of `` circumstance . `` steffy : okay . wyatt : `` b , `` what -- what should have affected the situation was how we felt about each other . steffy : and we 've always had those feelings from the very beginning . but before that , i was in love with your brother , and if it had n't been for your mom 's dirty tricks -- kidnapping liam , making me thing that it was over between us -- we would n't have been married , and ... honestly , we probably sh -- wyatt : should n't have ? is that what you were gon na say ? is that what you -- is that what you honestly believe , steffy ? because i do n't . being married to you was the best time of my life . and i know ... up until that point , i have a feeling ... that you felt that way , too . but i guess that 's water over the dam or under the bridge , evaporated into thin air . i ... i guess you want my brother now . but you should know that ... steffy : know what ? wyatt : ... i miss you . and do i wish we were back together ? i do n't know . what do you think ? steffy : [ crying ] look , um ... i do n't want to make things awkward , uh , between us , and liam does n't want that , either , so can we just , um , start fresh -- a new beginning ? and that can start tomorrow at dinner . just tell me you 'll be there . wyatt : [ chuckles softly ] maybe ... i can stop by . steffy : really ? wyatt : maybe . i mean , i would n't want to miss out on a thanksgiving mystery seating chart or whatever . steffy : [ sighs ] thank you . nicole : i do n't know what you have there , zende , but do n't even open it . zende : why ? nicole : i ca n't trust you . i certainly do n't need you giving me jewelry . zende : so , you 're sure it 's jewelry ? well , come to thanksgiving tomorrow . you 're family , all right ? we 'll show them this . we 'll tell them what we have . nicole : there 's nothing to tell them . that story ended when i saw you and sasha together . zende : look , i 'm sorry , but that 's unacceptable , okay ? we 'll tell them that we 're engaged ... that we want to get married and that we love each other and the fact that we can overcome anything and that we want a future and a life and a family and the next child that you have will be our child , nicole . all right . say you 'll marry me . say yes . nicole : [ crying ] i ca n't , zende . i ca n't . zende : at least come to thanksgiving tomorrow . it 's important to my granddad . he wants to be surrounded by family , and you are my family , nicole . i 'll have this with me . i understand you do n't want to accept it today . i get that . but you will be my wife , nicole .Summarize.[/INST]pam , steffy and quinn all sit and plan ahead for thanksgiving . eric wants to be sure they are all there and put aside their differences for the holiday . pam wants to make a fresh batch of lemon bars which quinn is not sure the doctors would advise but steffy and pam agree that one bar is n't going to harm eric so lemon bars it will be . eric says he is thankful for his three favorite girls all together to make this day special . quinn says she knows one person who wo n't be here – wyatt . quinn says wyatt lives here and he is suffering . they have much to celebrate this year but it will be very hard for him to sit across the table from her and liam . she says she has no right to ask but she wishes steffy would ask him to join them . she may be the only one who could get him to come . maya and rick talk to zende and he says he knows they are mad at him , but they have one baby by nicole and yet they asked for another . he did not think that was right . maya accuses him of sleeping with sasha . he says yes and he wishes he could take that back . nicole is outside the door and hears him say that he loves only nicole . it will always be nicole . she tries to duck out but zende sees her and again starts up how sorry he is . nicole says the avants will not be there for thanksgiving as viv has the flu and julius wants to stay with her . maya and rick agree that in the spirit of the holiday they should forgive zende and just hope that he and nicole can get back together . wyatt comes home and steffy manages to catch him alone and asks him to please come to the thanksgiving dinner . all he has to do is just be there ; she wants him to be with his family . he shrugs it off and says the last thing he wants to do is sit across the table from her and liam and say what they are thankful for . he has suffered enough and that would just be more . it will always be too soon . she says both she and liam understand but maybe it will help in the long term if not for right now . she says what they had was real but his own mom put all the pieces in place .</s>

jason : i know you 're afraid . i can feel it . but putting it off -- whatever it is -- is n't going to make the fear go away . the only way to deal with it is to face it , so will you just please tell me ? sam : you 're right . i 'm afraid . and i should n't be . i should be excited and ... grateful . i 'm really happy . jason : okay , sam , i do n't know how to respond unless you tell me what 's going on . sam : jason ... i 'm pregnant . [ scene_break ] dillon : hold the door , please . morgan : [ clears throat ] [ scene_break ] ava : hi , sweetheart . kiki : mom . ava : i 'm so glad you called . although when you asked me to meet you at the restaurant , i was sort of hoping we could have lunch together . kiki : working . ava : yes , i see that . well , then , i will have a table in your section . kiki : i would n't even bother , really . this is gon na be quick . ava : okay . kiki : so , morgan told me that he came to see you last night to tell you to back off . i just wanted you to know that i support him completely . ava : is that all he told you about our conversation ? kiki : yeah . why ? ava : i 'm just concerned , that 's all . kiki , are you prepared to spend the rest of your life with him ? because that 's exactly what morgan has in mind .

[ scene_break ] jason : we 're gon na have a baby ? sam : it 's why i kept fainting . dr. finn took my bloodwork , and it came back that i was pregnant . jason : then why are you so afraid ? sam : because i did n't think this was possible , jason . after danny , my ob told me that the chances of me getting pregnant without fertility treatments was practically zero , so i did n't even think about it . i did n't plan this . jason : well -- sam : i have n't modified my behavior . i 've been drinking and being reckless . jason : you had a few beers . a few beers . it 's not a big -- sam : jason . jason : hey , okay , it 's not ideal , but it 's nothing to be afraid of . hey , we 're gon na have a baby . now , what do you think ? you want a little boy , a little girl ? what do you like ? sam : i was exposed to malaria . our baby could have it , too . [ scene_break ] joe : hey . glad i ran into you . you left teddy 's blanket in my car . i wanted to get it back to you as soon as possible , you know , in case the little guy missed it . sabrina : thank you . uh , joe drove us home last night . michael : oh , i did not know that .

[ scene_break ] morgan : you 're going to crimson , right ? dillon : no , i 'm just gon na grab a coffee to go . morgan : in other words , you 're gon na go up to the restaurant and try to see kiki . dillon : no , when i say i 'm gon na grab a coffee to go , that means i 'm gon na grab a coffee to go . morgan : it 's kind of pathetic . i mean , do n't you think that you 're going up there to see a person you 're never gon na have a chance with ? dillon : well , if i 'm so pathetic , then why does my being in the same room as your girlfriend threaten you so damn much . [ scene_break ] carly : well , i ca n't blame nelle for bolting , but michael was able to find her and persuade her to come back . and then she ran into josslyn , and she met josslyn , so i guess that changed her mind . nina : amazing . carly : yes . and i have you to thank . i do . nina : well , you 're welcome . [ both laugh ] curtis : oh , hey , boss lady . i 'm just showing up for our meeting . i 'm sorry . i did n't know you were busy . i can come back . nina : um , no , no , curtis , wait , wait . uh , carly , uh , you actually should be thanking curtis . he 's the one who vetted all the responses and found out that nelle hayes could be the one . carly : that was you ? curtis : i mean , it took some digging , but , uh , yeah . carly : thank you . thank you . curtis : well , we ca n't be 100 % yet . carly : that 's all right . thank you anyway . [ chuckles ] now i 'm gon na go find out if your hunch was correct . curtis : yeah , well , um , keep us posted . carly : i will . i will . thank you again . really . thank you . curtis : you see ? i wish i could make every beautiful woman that damn happy to see me . nina : well , let 's see if you can go two for two . [ scene_break ] jax : of course , i want to learn as much as i can to protect joss , but i 'm also concerned for you , nelle . nelle : what about me ? jax : well , things got a little heated yesterday evening . nelle : well , i was upset when you implied i was lying . but , you know , michael helped me see it from your perspective and explained the situation . he mentioned that your extended family does n't always get along . jax : that 's an understatement . sonny : carly , jax , and i , we , uh -- we have n't always behaved in ways that we 're proud of , but we all want the same thing -- what 's best for josslyn . we do n't want to take advantage of you . nelle : i appreciate that , but i 've made up my mind . i 'll do whatever you need . monica : jax , hello . jax : hey . monica : i understand you brought someone in to be tested . jax : yes . nelle hayes , i 'd like you to introduce you to dr. monica quartermaine . she 's gon na be helping us today . nelle : nice to meet you . monica : likewise , likewise . well , why do n't we get started with the preliminary tests , okay ? nelle : i just want to get this over with . sonny : oh . monica : okay , well , right this way . sonny : so , here we are . jax : yeah . sonny : you know , i do n't -- you know , we do n't get along . i do n't like you very much , and ... [ chuckles ] but hey , you know , i do admit you 're a good father , and josslyn 's health is the most important thing to you . but you know , it -- it just -- i ca n't get it out of my head that , uh ... what -- why -- why do n't you want to see if she 's the donor ? jax : i 'm just trying to protect my daughter . and i do n't like that we 've lost control of the situation . sonny : well -- well , we 're in control . jax : if nelle turns out to be the donor , there 's no going back . we 're gon na have to tell joss . and i 'm really concerned what kind of toll it could take on her . [ scene_break ] nina : have you finished your investigation on bad plastic surgeons ? curtis : that is exactly why i 'm here . nina : great . what have you got ? curtis : bottom of the second page is a summary , followed by transcripts of the interviews and some handy - dandy charts and graphs . nina : this looks ... pretty great . curtis : see ? there it is . i 'm two for two . another beautiful woman happy to see me . nina : yeah , okay , okay . curtis : [ chuckles ] nina : let 's see if you finish as strongly as you started .

[ scene_break ] sam : yeah , when dr. finn told me i was pregnant , i felt like it was a miracle . it was something that i wanted so bad , and i would never dare to wish for it . i was about to tell you , and then i found out that you were sick . so ... jason : oh , so that 's why you ran after him . to ask about the baby ? sam : no . no , no , no . i went -- i went after dr. finn to ask about you . i wanted to know what we could do to treat you . it never occurred to me that i could affected or the baby could be affected . and then dr. finn told me that i had to be tested for malaria and told me the possible complications with pregnancy . and i ... i went from being ecstatically happy to terrified in a heart beat . and i know i - i - i should have said something to you . jason : it 's okay . sam : no , it 's not okay , jason . i panicked . i was keeping quiet about this because i was -- i was protecting you . or i thought i was protecting you . and i made the same mistake when i realized that i was pregnant with danny , and it almost destroyed us . and i just ca n't help but think of how different our lives would be , how everything would have changed . jason : not this time . we 're not gon na make the same mistakes we made before . you see this hand ? next time you feel panic coming on , you grab this hand . and i promise you i 'll be right there . and i 'm not gon na let you go . [ hold hands and kiss ] [ scene_break ] michael : i 'm just not sure why you went out of your way to avoid telling me that teddy 's uncle gave you guys a ride home from the hospital . sabrina : i just thought it would be easier to avoid the subject . michael : yeah , right . but -- what -- what -- what starts out as avoiding the subject can turn into a lie of omission . the next thing you know , we 're just lying to each other . that 's -- that 's what messed us up last time , okay ? and i just do n't want that to happen again . joe : is everything okay ? [ scene_break ] monica : well , we have confirmed that nelle 's blood type matches josslyn 's . and , uh , the sonogram strongly suggests a good possibility that she could have been the donor . carly : okay , but the sonogram is not 100 % conclusive , right ? monica : right . to be absolutely certain , we 'd have to do a kidney biopsy . carly : oh . nelle : okay , um ... let 's do it . carly : oh , wait a second , honey . let 's here what dr. quartermaine has to say about that . monica : well , an open biopsy is very invasive . and with just one kidney , the risks are even higher . i 'm going to leave you all to , uh , talk about it . carly : okay . well , we can not ask you to do that . jax : no , that would n't be fair . sonny : i agree with both them , which actually never happens . this has to end now . carly : yes . nelle : no , i disagree . you know , after our conversation last night , i thought a lot about this . no . i want to have the biopsy . carly : no , nelle . you do n't have to do that . nelle : i 'm not trying to be a saint here , okay ? i just want to know the truth myself . i want to know if what happened to me did some good . that way , if i do this , i 'll know . excuse me , i -- i just need some time alone . jax : yeah , we ca n't allow this poor girl to go through with this . carly : no , absolutely not . she 's been through enough . sonny : yeah , listen . actually , with what monica said , i 'm not 100 % sure , but i think she 's the donor . jax : that 's your medical opinion . sonny : i had my people check out her story . jax : without telling us ? sonny : do i need your permission ? jax : yeah , well , josslyn 's mine . she 's not your daughter , sonny . you crossed a line . carly : okay , can you give it a rest , please ? sonny : thank you . carly : what did you find out , sonny ? [ scene_break ] nina : this is pretty amazing . it practically writes itself . i should give you a co - byline . curtis : well , look , i ai n't no writer or nothing . i -- i just uncover stuff , you know ? no big deal . nina : do n't do that . do n't sell yourself short . do n't ever do that in front of me again .

[ scene_break ] kiki : you said what ? morgan : yeah , i -- i said it to get a rise out of her . i did n't really mean it . i mean i did mean it , but , uh ... kiki : okay , back up . you told my mother that you were gon na marry me . did you or did you not mean it ? morgan : yes , i meant it as a long - term goal . come on , kiki , i 'm not gon na tell your mom we 're getting married again before i even propose . kiki : and you 're not planning on doing that , like , today , right ? morgan : no . relax , okay ? i -- i love you very much , but i know that marriage is far off for us . kiki : okay , so let me just get this straight . you told my mother that you were gon na marry me just to drive her crazy . morgan : she drives us crazy all the time , so yeah , i think that 's fair . [ chuckles ] kiki : okay , i respect that . morgan : but listen -- besides freaking ava out , i wanted ava to know that you are the only one for me , and you always will be . that 's not me being manic . that 's just me being honest . kiki : got it . sally : kiki , could you come help me , please ? table 5 's just ... morgan : it 's all good . go . [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] sonny : last night , the girl was telling us that her -- her parents drove her out from atlanta to a clinic where she removed her kidney . jax : so , you were looking for what ? places that illegally harvested organs within a six - hour drive of atlanta ? sonny : close . i 'm talking about spinelli found a -- a clinic where they do these things right over the alabama state line . carly : okay , well , that does n't prove that nelle is joss ' donor . sonny : well , we made some phone calls , checked it out thoroughly , and it 's only been shut down a year ago . jax : well , i doubt they kept thorough records of organ harvesting . sonny : we also confirmed that the place was operating during josslyn 's transplant . so , you get what i 'm saying , right ? carly : mm - hmm . sonny : timeline , the whole thing . carly : thank you . thank you so much . sonny : all right . well , you know , i 'll do anything for you . carly : [ laughs ] jax , are you okay ? jax : [ sighs ] this is what i was hoping to avoid . now that we know nelle 's the donor , how do we tell joss ? [ scene_break ] sabrina : joe is doing a fellowship on biomedical research . michael : oh , is that right ? joe : pretty nerdy stuff . but i 'll also be doing surgeries , so it 's not all lab work . [ cell phone rings ] joe : speaking of work , i should probably get there . michael : all right , excuse me . i got to take this . mom ? carly : michael . can , um -- can you pick josslyn up from camp and bring her straight to hospital , please ? michael : did you find out ? carly : i 'll tell you everything when you get here with your sister . michael : okay , uh , i 'm on my way . um , i got to go . um , we 'll wrap this up later ? sabrina : yeah , of course . michael : i 'll see you later . joe : okay . sabrina : i should get going , too . teddy 's gon na be hungry when he wakes up . joe : sabrina , this has to stop . sabrina : i do n't know what you mean . joe : you have been running hot and cold with me ever since i showed up at your door . now , at first , you kept me at arm 's length , which is fine . but then you started to open up , and as soon as we started getting somewhere , you shut it down . sabrina : and where exactly did you think you were getting ? joe : i 'm not trying to ruin anything for you , sabrina , but i am teddy 's uncle . that makes us family . so for his sake , we need to be completely honest with each other , starting right now . [ scene_break ] carly : josslyn 's going to be okay . we 're gon na make it okay for her . jax : i just -- i do n't want her to be hurt by this . you know , i do n't want her to feel any kind of sadness or regret . carly : she wo n't . i mean , yeah , she 's gon na need some time to process , but i think she 's gon na see how lucky she is , how blessed we were to find a donor when we so desperately needed it . i think she 's gon na be grateful . sonny : maybe telling josslyn is n't your call . carly : what ? sonny : there 's somebody else you might want to consider . carly : how are you feeling ? nelle : a little nervous , but otherwise okay . carly : you do n't need to be nervous about the biopsy . and , uh , well , we have something else we need to ask you . [ scene_break ] sam : now i 'm just mad at myself . jason : for what ? sam : because i spent the last 12 hours worrying so bad , i do n't know if i threw up from fear or because i was actually experiencing morning sickness . jason : ew . you threw up ? [ laughs ] sam : yes , i did . i was actually at the , uh , quartermaines ' . i was in -- in the middle of talking to elizabeth , and i just bolted right for the bathroom . jason : hm . so , that 's what you two were talking about . sam : yeah . and she told me that i should be honest with you . and she was right . jason : [ sighs ] sam : i 'm still really worried . and i 'm scared . i know i 'm not alone . i do n't know why it is so hard for me to trust that . jason : well , maybe because we lost each other for a while , and some part of you thinks that can happen again . [ scene_break ] curtis : what the hell 's got you all fired up ? nina : um , i just learned from experience that we should n't take anything for granted , least of all ourselves . [ clears throat ] curtis : oh . well , when you put it that way ... nina : yeah . what you do , it 's important . you help people . it matters . look at you -- you sifted through all those responses from potential donors , you found the right one , and because of that , josslyn has a healthier future . that 's important , and you did that . curtis : i did that because you paid me . if there 's a hero in all of this , it 's you . nina : i 'm not a hero . at all . to be honest , i think i was just , um , living vicariously through carly . she 's protecting her daughter . she 's compassionate , and she 's loyal . she 's amazing . she 's an amazing mother , and i just would like to think that 's the kind of mother that i would have been . i 'm sure you would have been . curtis : look , nina , maybe having a child is not in the cards for you , but that does n't mean you ca n't live a good life , a full life with -- with friends who matter to you , who mean something to you . i 'm sure you 'll be fine . nina : wait , curtis . wait , wait , wait . [ scene_break ] ava : i would like you to photograph some art for my gallery 's new catalog . dillon : well , i 'm flattered , but i 'm usually more of a people photographer than a , uh , art photographer . ava : your modesty is charming . but i 've paid very close attention to the work you do here for crimson . it 's very impressive . dillon : thank you . ava : so , um , you 'll come to my gallery then and talk about it ? dillon : thanks . yeah , i 'll do that . ava : [ laughs ] i 'm glad . i just thought -- i -- i thought there was chance you would turn me down flat . dillon : well , i mean , i know that you and my father have had some history . ava : no , let 's not , okay ? dillon : but that would be no reason to influence my work -- ava : you know , i 'm not even talking about myself . i 'm talking about kiki . [ scene_break ] morgan : i was going over ways to amp up perks . can i run these by you real quick ? kiki : sure . morgan : i just -- i started writing things down , and then ideas just kept coming to me . like -- i -- i was thinking , like , we do things that people do , like punch cards . and , like , they punch nine times , but on the 10th time , they get a free one . and then maybe upping our social media game , things like that . kiki : that 's brilliant . morgan : but i was also thinking that like we do -- we go bigger , like maybe we start sponsoring local events , like the pc , uh , uh , uh , uh , triathlon -- the labor day triathlon . we could do that . maybe pass out coffee to runners . that 's probably not a great idea , but we could do water . you know what i mean ? we could put a , like , logo on the water cups . what ? kiki : it 's just the way you 're talking , it 's very ... morgan : okay . you think i 'm having a manic episode . [ scene_break ] carly : the biopsy wo n't be necessary . nelle : is n't that the only way to be sure ? sonny : not the only way . carly : my husband was able to track down the clinic where you had your procedure . and it turns out that the timeline matches up with josslyn 's surgery . nelle : okay . carly : that 's all the proof we need that you 're josslyn 's donor . jax : nelle , i -- i know that you do n't want thanks . but that 's too bad because thank you for saving our daughter . nelle : is this enough to be sure ? i mean , is this proof enough ? carly : it is for me -- and -- and for jax and sonny . i hope it is for you , too . i really hope this gives you the closure , well , you deserve . nelle : yeah , it does . um ... okay , so now -- so now what ? what -- you said you had something to ask me . carly : yes , um ... i hope you 're okay with it . i mean , um ... i -- i -- [ sighs ] i really wanted to tell josslyn that you are her donor . nelle : you really want josslyn to know all about me ? carly : yes , i do . i -- i really do . in fact , i jumped the gun already . [ laughs ] jax : yeah . michael 's actually on his way over here right now with joss . carly : i mean , there are many reasons , but -- but mainly , i just want to get it out in the open as soon as possible , and i hope you 're okay with that . nelle : yeah . of course . whatever you need . carly : thank you . [ laughs ] aww . josslyn : mom . carly : hey . hi , sweetie . josslyn : what 's going on ? why are we all here ?

[ scene_break ] kiki : a manic ep -- no , that is -- that is not what i was saying . morgan : well , then what were you saying ? kiki : i just think it 's nice that you have something that you 're so passionate about . morgan : yeah , besides you , yeah . kiki : yeah , besides me . i mean , do n't take this wrong way . i 'm flattered that i matter so much to you , but ... morgan : i mean , do n't be flattered . just -- you know , just accept it . it 's a fact of life . kiki : okay , it 's accepted . it 's just nice that you have an outside project . morgan : mm - hmm . kiki : you know what ? sally is actually going to kill me if i do n't get back to work . morgan : yeah , yeah , yeah , go . i 'm not gon na get in your way , i mean , now that some of the customers are gone . i think you know who i mean . kiki : yep , i am glad that my mother left , too . morgan : among others . [ scene_break ] ava : i was afraid that you would n't want to work with me , well , because i know that things were moving forward between you and kiki before they were n't . dillon : that was between me and kiki . ava : right . i do n't -- i do n't want to pry . dillon : uh - huh . ava : i just want to say one thing . i saw what happened between you and kiki earlier . dillon : [ chuckles ] yeah , you mean me scalding myself . ava : after that -- it 's clear the two of you still have a connection . dillon : clearly , she has a stronger one with morgan . ava : we 'll see . dillon : you lost me . ava : dillon , if you 're still interested in kiki , you definitely have a chance with her . [ scene_break ] sabrina : what do you really want ? joe : exactly what i said -- a relationship with my nephew , a chance to be in teddy 's life , to give him the support that i could n't give my brother . but being in teddy 's life means being in yours . obviously , that 's a problem for you . i just hope that in time i can earn your trust , make you see that i 'm still the guy who used to be your friend , someone you can trust , someone who can be good to you .

[ scene_break ] jason : when we got married , i made promises that i was n't able to keep . sam : yeah , but that was n't your fault . jason : no , it was my fault . the life that i chose to live , it was , um ... well , i , uh -- i just expected you to accept it . sam : expected me to accept it ? i was happy to accept it . i was happy with you . i did n't care about the risks that you took . that was part of who you are . jason : yeah , those risks almost got me killed , and they kept us apart . and you 're more important . danny and jake are more important . this baby is more important . sam : but this baby may not live to be born . jason : this baby is here now because we love each other . if you let me make those promises to you again , i will do a better job of keeping them . sam : wait a minute . what do you mean `` again `` ? jason . jason . jason : i want you to be my wife . will you please marry me ? sam : [ sighs ] [ next_on ] paul : why would you scare me like this ? morgan ( to andré ) : i 'm scared to death . ava ( to dillon ) : all kiki needs to call it quits with morgan is you . kiki : oh , no ! nina ( to curtis ) : will you help me find a baby ? josslyn : why did you let me go on thinking the search had stopped when it had n't ? sam ( to jason ) : you want to get married again ?
kiki is `` with `` morgan fulfilling their `` commitment `` at the metro court although dillon is ever present nearby . while he accepts the choice she 's made and goes to do his job at crimson , ava observes the whole thing with obvious intent . although both kiki and morgan affirm to ava that they are together and disregard her concerns about that , she is nonetheless confident that it 's only a matter of time before they break up . with that , she goes to privately talk to dillon , informing him even if he has given up on kiki , given the situation , he needs to know that sooner or later , her daughter will realize that he 's right for her instead of morgan . nina privately talks to curtis , concluding that maybe she got involved in carly 's business regarding josslyn 's kidney because she was living , vicariously , through an impassioned mom . she then concludes to curtis she has another `` job `` for him , for which she will offer him generous compensation including and expense account and bonus incentive if he `` delivers `` what she needs . he asks what it is , to which she replies she needs him to find her a baby . meanwhile , nelle goes to the hospital with sonny , jax and carly awaiting the results of the testing that will determine whether she is , in fact , josslyn 's kidney donor . monica later informs them the only way to find that out for certain , is for nelle to have a biopsy that would be extremely dangerous for her , especially given she only has one kidney . at that point , they all conclude they can not expect nelle to go through with that . yet at that point , sonny announces that he 's done some checking which has offered him `` conclusive `` evidence that nelle is , in fact josslyn 's donor and so they have their affirmative answer without risking the biopsy . meanwhile , michael is with sabrina and expresses he wished she had informed him of the time she and teddy have recently spent with carlos ' brother , jose . sabrina is clearly `` torn `` between whether to have michael or jose in hers ' and teddy 's lives . carly then calls michael and asks him to pick up josslyn and bring her to the hospital so she can announce something to them . when they arrive , she happily announces that they have found out , unequivocally , that nelle is , in fact josslyn 's kidney donor and they may praise her for having saved josslyn 's life . sam finally admits to jason that she 's pregnant and expresses her concerns about what it could mean to their unborn baby if she has malaria and so she 's been afraid to face their fate , regarding that , as she reminds him how it 's affected her life when she lost him the first time and all they 've been through regarding danny and their history together . at that point , he promises to be there for her and asks her to marry him so they will together as a family .
<s>[INST] jason : i know you 're afraid . i can feel it . but putting it off -- whatever it is -- is n't going to make the fear go away . the only way to deal with it is to face it , so will you just please tell me ? sam : you 're right . i 'm afraid . and i should n't be . i should be excited and ... grateful . i 'm really happy . jason : okay , sam , i do n't know how to respond unless you tell me what 's going on . sam : jason ... i 'm pregnant .

[ scene_break ] jax : i understand you met my daughter yesterday . nelle : she introduced herself when i was talking to michael . do n't worry . all we talked about was an app on her phone . jax : yeah , no . joss told me . she was under the impression that you were leaving town . nelle : i planned to , but michael convinced me to stay . your family needs answers , and so do i . sonny : i though t carly explained all this to you on the phone . we 're here to find out if she is josslyn 's donor once and for all . [ scene_break ] jason : we 're gon na have a baby ? sam : it 's why i kept fainting . dr. finn took my bloodwork , and it came back that i was pregnant . jason : then why are you so afraid ? sam : because i did n't think this was possible , jason . after danny , my ob told me that the chances of me getting pregnant without fertility treatments was practically zero , so i did n't even think about it . i did n't plan this . jason : well -- sam : i have n't modified my behavior . i 've been drinking and being reckless . jason : you had a few beers . a few beers . it 's not a big -- sam : jason . jason : hey , okay , it 's not ideal , but it 's nothing to be afraid of . hey , we 're gon na have a baby . now , what do you think ? you want a little boy , a little girl ? what do you like ? sam : i was exposed to malaria . our baby could have it , too . [ scene_break ] joe : hey . glad i ran into you . you left teddy 's blanket in my car . i wanted to get it back to you as soon as possible , you know , in case the little guy missed it . sabrina : thank you . uh , joe drove us home last night . michael : oh , i did not know that . [ scene_break ] kiki : so , morgan said he wants to spend the rest of his life with me ? ava : i said too much . kiki : that 's never stopped you before . ava : kiki , i think you should ask your boyfriend to explain what he said to me last night . kiki : okay . ava : but i will say this . kiki : [ scoffs ] you could n't even go two seconds . ava : i did n't go to him . he came to me . he knocked on my door , and `` hostile `` is the only word i can use to describe his visit . kiki : i ca n't imagine why . it 's not like you 've been trying to break us up for months . ava : i want what 's best for you . morgan , on the other hand , he does n't know what you want . he does n't know what you need . he 's only interested in what you can do for him . [ scene_break ] morgan : you 're going to crimson , right ? dillon : no , i 'm just gon na grab a coffee to go . morgan : in other words , you 're gon na go up to the restaurant and try to see kiki . dillon : no , when i say i 'm gon na grab a coffee to go , that means i 'm gon na grab a coffee to go . morgan : it 's kind of pathetic . i mean , do n't you think that you 're going up there to see a person you 're never gon na have a chance with ? dillon : well , if i 'm so pathetic , then why does my being in the same room as your girlfriend threaten you so damn much . [ scene_break ] carly : well , i ca n't blame nelle for bolting , but michael was able to find her and persuade her to come back . and then she ran into josslyn , and she met josslyn , so i guess that changed her mind . nina : amazing . carly : yes . and i have you to thank . i do . nina : well , you 're welcome .

[ chuckles ] now i 'm gon na go find out if your hunch was correct . curtis : yeah , well , um , keep us posted . carly : i will . i will . thank you again . really . thank you . curtis : you see ? i wish i could make every beautiful woman that damn happy to see me . nina : well , let 's see if you can go two for two . [ scene_break ] jax : of course , i want to learn as much as i can to protect joss , but i 'm also concerned for you , nelle . nelle : what about me ? jax : well , things got a little heated yesterday evening . nelle : well , i was upset when you implied i was lying . but , you know , michael helped me see it from your perspective and explained the situation . he mentioned that your extended family does n't always get along . jax : that 's an understatement . sonny : carly , jax , and i , we , uh -- we have n't always behaved in ways that we 're proud of , but we all want the same thing -- what 's best for josslyn . we do n't want to take advantage of you . nelle : i appreciate that , but i 've made up my mind . i 'll do whatever you need . monica : jax , hello . jax : hey . monica : i understand you brought someone in to be tested . jax : yes . nelle hayes , i 'd like you to introduce you to dr. monica quartermaine . she 's gon na be helping us today . nelle : nice to meet you . monica : likewise , likewise . well , why do n't we get started with the preliminary tests , okay ? nelle : i just want to get this over with . sonny : oh . monica : okay , well , right this way . sonny : so , here we are . jax : yeah . sonny : you know , i do n't -- you know , we do n't get along . i do n't like you very much , and ... [ chuckles ] but hey , you know , i do admit you 're a good father , and josslyn 's health is the most important thing to you . but you know , it -- it just -- i ca n't get it out of my head that , uh ... what -- why -- why do n't you want to see if she 's the donor ? jax : i 'm just trying to protect my daughter . and i do n't like that we 've lost control of the situation . sonny : well -- well , we 're in control . jax : if nelle turns out to be the donor , there 's no going back . we 're gon na have to tell joss . and i 'm really concerned what kind of toll it could take on her . [ scene_break ] nina : have you finished your investigation on bad plastic surgeons ? curtis : that is exactly why i 'm here . nina : great . what have you got ? curtis : bottom of the second page is a summary , followed by transcripts of the interviews and some handy - dandy charts and graphs . nina : this looks ... pretty great . curtis : see ? there it is . i 'm two for two . another beautiful woman happy to see me . nina : yeah , okay , okay . curtis : [ chuckles ] nina : let 's see if you finish as strongly as you started . [ scene_break ] kiki : you are in no place to criticize morgan after all of the crap that you 've pulled . [ cell phone rings ] ava : it 's -- it 's one of my dealers . kiki : [ scoffs ] firearms or narcotics ? ava : i 'll just be a minute . kiki : it 's okay . do n't worry about it . we 're done here . but please enjoy your meal . i 'll get you a different waitress . ava : this is ava . dillon : [ sighs ] ava : well , no , actually , that 's not gon na be accept ... able . dillon : go get her , tiger . hey , sally . sally : hey , hot stuff . let me guess -- coffee to go ? dillon : you know me too well . sally : i would love to know you better . morgan : good morning , beautiful . kiki : morgan , what are you doing here ? morgan : i just wanted to surprise you . not in a `` let 's get a house `` type of way , just in a good way . kiki : mission accomplished . morgan : [ chuckles ] kiki : uh , they 're beautiful . thank you . morgan : look , um , i know you 're busy with tables and stuff , but i have some thoughts on perks , and i really want to show you and get your feedback . kiki : yeah , sure . i actually had something i wanted to talk to you about , too . but let me go put these in water first , okay ? morgan : okay . sally : here you go . i made it extra hot , just like you . dillon : thank you . that 's , uh ... i got to go . thanks . aah ! [ gasps ] god ! kiki : oh , no . oh , oh , my god , dillon . are you okay ? dillon : [ winces ] it 's hot . it is hot . [ scene_break ] carly : i got your message . they 've already started ? sonny : yeah , the girl could n't wait , and monica said it would n't take long . carly : [ sighs ] jax , i know it does n't necessarily seem like it , but i have considered your point of view in all of this . jax : and yet , here we are doing precisely what i did n't want . carly : i know , and i 'm sorry . but if it turns out that nelle is josslyn 's kidney donor , we 're gon na have to tell joss -- the sooner the better . jax : we have to proceed very cautiously . carly : yes , i agree . jax : you do ? carly : yes . come on , we do n't have to get into the details of nelle 's parents or their motives . all we have to do is tell josslyn that nelle is her donor and that she is alive and well and she was grateful to help . all of that is true . jax : assuming , of course , nelle is the donor . you think you 're jumping the gun a little bit ? carly : yes , okay , i 'm aware of that . nelle : oh , good , you 're here . carly : hi . i 'm sorry i was late . i was held up . nelle : oh , it 's no big deal . the sonogram was quick . they took some blood , and that was that . dr. quartermaine seems very nice . carly : yes , she 's going above and beyond for us with this . nelle : yeah , she said they were gon na put a rush on the results , so we can compare the results with josslyn and i . she also told me to tell you to stay put . sonny : we 're not going anywhere . carly : no . honestly , thank you so much for doing this . i appreciate it so much . nelle : yeah , well , i 'm doing this for me , too , you know ? if it turns out i am the one that helped joss , i can be happy for her and for myself and move on . carly : we 've been so caught up in what this means for us , we 've barely even gotten to know you . nelle : mm , well , there is n't much to know . carly : everyone has a story . come sit with me . have a seat . okay , so you said that you are from atlanta . nelle : mm - hmm . carly : wow . and your parents are gone ? i 'm sorry . i 'm really sorry about that . nelle : thank you . carly : so , any brothers or sisters ? cousin ? nelle : i was ... an only child . carly : oh , me too . well , growing up . and then , well , it 's complicated . nelle : well , yeah , most lives are . i always wanted a baby brother or sister . you know , i love kids . that 's why i 'm studying to be a teacher . carly : and you said that you 're working as a teacher 's aide . nelle : mm - hmm . that 's right . yeah . i ca n't wait to get back to atlanta when the school year starts and meet the whole new batch . carly : oh , that 's great . what age do you want to work with ? nelle : uh , kindergarten . carly : oh , they 're so fun at that age . nelle : mm - hmm . sonny : carly . monica : well , i have the results . [ scene_break ] sam : if i have malaria , the baby is at risk for a lot of things -- anemia ... low birth weight ... [ inhales sharply ] [ voice breaking ] ... and stillbirth . jason : okay , okay . first thing 's first . you need to stop reading pamphlets . okay ? all right ? sam : okay . jason : when are we gon na know ? sam : my first test came back negative . i 'm just waiting on the second one . it should be soon . jason : okay . then we wait , and when we hear , we will plan accordingly . sam : [ normal voice ] i know that look . i know that look on your face . i 've been staring at it ever since dr. finn told me that the baby was at risk . you 're scared , jason . you 're scared , i can tell . jason : hey , listen , listen to me . yeah . any man with any sense would be afraid , especially since there 's nothing i can do except ... sam : what ? jason : to make sure you know that i love you , and i 'm gon na be here . we 're gon na deal with it together . sam : okay . jason : is that a deal ? sam : yeah . jason : good . [ scene_break ] sally : here . put this on your hand . stay right here . i 'm gon na go grab you another one . kiki : mm , it does n't look good . dillon : yes . morgan : you know , uh , dillon , if that 's serious , i mean , i could take you to the hospital . dillon : it 's not . morgan : okay . dillon : i better get going . i can hardly work for a fashion magazine looking like this . kiki : dillon , i 'm so sorry . dillon : do n't be sorry . it was an accident . morgan : here , let me help you . kiki : thank you . morgan : yeah . are they wrecked ? kiki : no , i do n't think so . they 're still beautiful . thanks . morgan : mm - hmm . sally : where did he go ? kiki : uh , he went to go change . you know , sally , could you do me a favor and throw these in a vase ? sally : yeah , sure . kiki : well , i literally never saw that coming . morgan : yeah , it 's weird . he , uh , came up on the elevator with me . it 's almost like he was going out of his way not to see you . ava : kiki , are you all right ? kiki : yeah , it was nothing . ava : well , it turns out i have a meeting , so i wo n't need the table after all . kiki : shame . morgan : mm . do n't let us keep you . ava : hi , morgan . i was just telling kiki about our little visit last night . seems you left a little something out . kiki : yeah , morgan , what did you talk about last night ? these little hints that she 's been dropping are driving me crazy . morgan : okay , do n't ... freak out . but i told her that i was gon na marry you . [ scene_break ] sam : yeah , when dr. finn told me i was pregnant , i felt like it was a miracle . it was something that i wanted so bad , and i would never dare to wish for it . i was about to tell you , and then i found out that you were sick . so ... jason : oh , so that 's why you ran after him . to ask about the baby ? sam : no . no , no , no . i went -- i went after dr. finn to ask about you . i wanted to know what we could do to treat you . it never occurred to me that i could affected or the baby could be affected . and then dr. finn told me that i had to be tested for malaria and told me the possible complications with pregnancy . and i ... i went from being ecstatically happy to terrified in a heart beat . and i know i - i - i should have said something to you . jason : it 's okay . sam : no , it 's not okay , jason . i panicked . i was keeping quiet about this because i was -- i was protecting you . or i thought i was protecting you . and i made the same mistake when i realized that i was pregnant with danny , and it almost destroyed us . and i just ca n't help but think of how different our lives would be , how everything would have changed . jason : not this time . we 're not gon na make the same mistakes we made before . you see this hand ? next time you feel panic coming on , you grab this hand . and i promise you i 'll be right there . and i 'm not gon na let you go . [ hold hands and kiss ] [ scene_break ] michael : i 'm just not sure why you went out of your way to avoid telling me that teddy 's uncle gave you guys a ride home from the hospital . sabrina : i just thought it would be easier to avoid the subject . michael : yeah , right . but -- what -- what -- what starts out as avoiding the subject can turn into a lie of omission . the next thing you know , we 're just lying to each other . that 's -- that 's what messed us up last time , okay ? and i just do n't want that to happen again . joe : is everything okay ? [ scene_break ] monica : well , we have confirmed that nelle 's blood type matches josslyn 's . and , uh , the sonogram strongly suggests a good possibility that she could have been the donor . carly : okay , but the sonogram is not 100 % conclusive , right ? monica : right . to be absolutely certain , we 'd have to do a kidney biopsy . carly : oh . nelle : okay , um ... let 's do it . carly : oh , wait a second , honey . let 's here what dr. quartermaine has to say about that . monica : well , an open biopsy is very invasive . and with just one kidney , the risks are even higher . i 'm going to leave you all to , uh , talk about it . carly : okay . well , we can not ask you to do that . jax : no , that would n't be fair . sonny : i agree with both them , which actually never happens . this has to end now . carly : yes . nelle : no , i disagree . you know , after our conversation last night , i thought a lot about this . no . i want to have the biopsy . carly : no , nelle . you do n't have to do that . nelle : i 'm not trying to be a saint here , okay ? i just want to know the truth myself . i want to know if what happened to me did some good . that way , if i do this , i 'll know . excuse me , i -- i just need some time alone . jax : yeah , we ca n't allow this poor girl to go through with this . carly : no , absolutely not . she 's been through enough . sonny : yeah , listen . actually , with what monica said , i 'm not 100 % sure , but i think she 's the donor . jax : that 's your medical opinion . sonny : i had my people check out her story . jax : without telling us ? sonny : do i need your permission ? jax : yeah , well , josslyn 's mine . she 's not your daughter , sonny . you crossed a line . carly : okay , can you give it a rest , please ? sonny : thank you . carly : what did you find out , sonny ? [ scene_break ] nina : this is pretty amazing . it practically writes itself . i should give you a co - byline . curtis : well , look , i ai n't no writer or nothing . i -- i just uncover stuff , you know ? no big deal . nina : do n't do that . do n't sell yourself short . do n't ever do that in front of me again . [ scene_break ] ava : well , i 've heard of casual friday . [ both laugh ] ava : this is a bit much . dillon : yeah , i , uh -- i 'm usually a little bit more formal at the workplace , but i had a little bit of a coffee mishap . i 'm assuming that you 're looking for nina . ava : oh , no , no . no , i 'm definitely not here to see nina . i 'm here to see you . [ scene_break ] kiki : you said what ? morgan : yeah , i -- i said it to get a rise out of her . i did n't really mean it . i mean i did mean it , but , uh ... kiki : okay , back up . you told my mother that you were gon na marry me . did you or did you not mean it ? morgan : yes , i meant it as a long - term goal . come on , kiki , i 'm not gon na tell your mom we 're getting married again before i even propose . kiki : and you 're not planning on doing that , like , today , right ? morgan : no . relax , okay ? i -- i love you very much , but i know that marriage is far off for us . kiki : okay , so let me just get this straight . you told my mother that you were gon na marry me just to drive her crazy . morgan : she drives us crazy all the time , so yeah , i think that 's fair . [ chuckles ] kiki : okay , i respect that . morgan : but listen -- besides freaking ava out , i wanted ava to know that you are the only one for me , and you always will be . that 's not me being manic . that 's just me being honest . kiki : got it . sally : kiki , could you come help me , please ? table 5 's just ... morgan : it 's all good . go . [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] sonny : last night , the girl was telling us that her -- her parents drove her out from atlanta to a clinic where she removed her kidney . jax : so , you were looking for what ? places that illegally harvested organs within a six - hour drive of atlanta ? sonny : close . i 'm talking about spinelli found a -- a clinic where they do these things right over the alabama state line . carly : okay , well , that does n't prove that nelle is joss ' donor . sonny : well , we made some phone calls , checked it out thoroughly , and it 's only been shut down a year ago . jax : well , i doubt they kept thorough records of organ harvesting . sonny : we also confirmed that the place was operating during josslyn 's transplant . so , you get what i 'm saying , right ? carly : mm - hmm . sonny : timeline , the whole thing . carly : thank you . thank you so much . sonny : all right . well , you know , i 'll do anything for you . carly : [ laughs ] jax , are you okay ? jax : [ sighs ] this is what i was hoping to avoid . now that we know nelle 's the donor , how do we tell joss ? [ scene_break ] sabrina : joe is doing a fellowship on biomedical research . michael : oh , is that right ? joe : pretty nerdy stuff . but i 'll also be doing surgeries , so it 's not all lab work . [ cell phone rings ] joe : speaking of work , i should probably get there . michael : all right , excuse me . i got to take this . mom ? carly : michael . can , um -- can you pick josslyn up from camp and bring her straight to hospital , please ? michael : did you find out ? carly : i 'll tell you everything when you get here with your sister . michael : okay , uh , i 'm on my way . um , i got to go . um , we 'll wrap this up later ? sabrina : yeah , of course . michael : i 'll see you later . joe : okay . sabrina : i should get going , too . teddy 's gon na be hungry when he wakes up . joe : sabrina , this has to stop . sabrina : i do n't know what you mean . joe : you have been running hot and cold with me ever since i showed up at your door . now , at first , you kept me at arm 's length , which is fine . but then you started to open up , and as soon as we started getting somewhere , you shut it down . sabrina : and where exactly did you think you were getting ? joe : i 'm not trying to ruin anything for you , sabrina , but i am teddy 's uncle . that makes us family . so for his sake , we need to be completely honest with each other , starting right now . [ scene_break ] carly : josslyn 's going to be okay . we 're gon na make it okay for her . jax : i just -- i do n't want her to be hurt by this . you know , i do n't want her to feel any kind of sadness or regret . carly : she wo n't . i mean , yeah , she 's gon na need some time to process , but i think she 's gon na see how lucky she is , how blessed we were to find a donor when we so desperately needed it . i think she 's gon na be grateful . sonny : maybe telling josslyn is n't your call . carly : what ? sonny : there 's somebody else you might want to consider . carly : how are you feeling ? nelle : a little nervous , but otherwise okay . carly : you do n't need to be nervous about the biopsy . and , uh , well , we have something else we need to ask you . [ scene_break ] sam : now i 'm just mad at myself . jason : for what ? sam : because i spent the last 12 hours worrying so bad , i do n't know if i threw up from fear or because i was actually experiencing morning sickness . jason : ew . you threw up ? [ laughs ] sam : yes , i did . i was actually at the , uh , quartermaines ' . i was in -- in the middle of talking to elizabeth , and i just bolted right for the bathroom . jason : hm . so , that 's what you two were talking about . sam : yeah . and she told me that i should be honest with you . and she was right . jason : [ sighs ] sam : i 'm still really worried . and i 'm scared . i know i 'm not alone . i do n't know why it is so hard for me to trust that . jason : well , maybe because we lost each other for a while , and some part of you thinks that can happen again . [ scene_break ] curtis : what the hell 's got you all fired up ? nina : um , i just learned from experience that we should n't take anything for granted , least of all ourselves . [ clears throat ] curtis : oh . well , when you put it that way ... nina : yeah . what you do , it 's important . you help people . it matters . look at you -- you sifted through all those responses from potential donors , you found the right one , and because of that , josslyn has a healthier future . that 's important , and you did that . curtis : i did that because you paid me . if there 's a hero in all of this , it 's you . nina : i 'm not a hero . at all . to be honest , i think i was just , um , living vicariously through carly . she 's protecting her daughter . she 's compassionate , and she 's loyal . she 's amazing . she 's an amazing mother , and i just would like to think that 's the kind of mother that i would have been . i 'm sure you would have been . curtis : look , nina , maybe having a child is not in the cards for you , but that does n't mean you ca n't live a good life , a full life with -- with friends who matter to you , who mean something to you . i 'm sure you 'll be fine . nina : wait , curtis . wait , wait , wait . [ scene_break ] ava : i would like you to photograph some art for my gallery 's new catalog . dillon : well , i 'm flattered , but i 'm usually more of a people photographer than a , uh , art photographer . ava : your modesty is charming . but i 've paid very close attention to the work you do here for crimson . it 's very impressive . dillon : thank you . ava : so , um , you 'll come to my gallery then and talk about it ? dillon : thanks . yeah , i 'll do that . ava : [ laughs ] i 'm glad . i just thought -- i -- i thought there was chance you would turn me down flat . dillon : well , i mean , i know that you and my father have had some history . ava : no , let 's not , okay ? dillon : but that would be no reason to influence my work -- ava : you know , i 'm not even talking about myself . i 'm talking about kiki . [ scene_break ] morgan : i was going over ways to amp up perks . can i run these by you real quick ? kiki : sure . morgan : i just -- i started writing things down , and then ideas just kept coming to me . like -- i -- i was thinking , like , we do things that people do , like punch cards . and , like , they punch nine times , but on the 10th time , they get a free one . and then maybe upping our social media game , things like that . kiki : that 's brilliant . morgan : but i was also thinking that like we do -- we go bigger , like maybe we start sponsoring local events , like the pc , uh , uh , uh , uh , triathlon -- the labor day triathlon . we could do that . maybe pass out coffee to runners . that 's probably not a great idea , but we could do water . you know what i mean ? we could put a , like , logo on the water cups . what ? kiki : it 's just the way you 're talking , it 's very ... morgan : okay . you think i 'm having a manic episode . [ scene_break ] carly : the biopsy wo n't be necessary . nelle : is n't that the only way to be sure ? sonny : not the only way . carly : my husband was able to track down the clinic where you had your procedure . and it turns out that the timeline matches up with josslyn 's surgery . nelle : okay . carly : that 's all the proof we need that you 're josslyn 's donor . jax : nelle , i -- i know that you do n't want thanks . but that 's too bad because thank you for saving our daughter . nelle : is this enough to be sure ? i mean , is this proof enough ? carly : it is for me -- and -- and for jax and sonny . i hope it is for you , too . i really hope this gives you the closure , well , you deserve . nelle : yeah , it does . um ... okay , so now -- so now what ? what -- you said you had something to ask me . carly : yes , um ... i hope you 're okay with it . i mean , um ... i -- i -- [ sighs ] i really wanted to tell josslyn that you are her donor . nelle : you really want josslyn to know all about me ? carly : yes , i do . i -- i really do . in fact , i jumped the gun already . [ laughs ] jax : yeah . michael 's actually on his way over here right now with joss . carly : i mean , there are many reasons , but -- but mainly , i just want to get it out in the open as soon as possible , and i hope you 're okay with that . nelle : yeah . of course . whatever you need . carly : thank you . [ laughs ] aww . josslyn : mom . carly : hey . hi , sweetie . josslyn : what 's going on ? why are we all here ? [ scene_break ] nina : i 'm so proud of you . you are amazing . you just gave me an idea , maybe the best idea ever . i have another job for you . curtis : mm - hmm . really ? nina : yeah , it requires discretion , finesse , the highest of professional standards . curtis : i think i can manage that . nina : i will give you an expense account , and i 'll pay you overtime , and when you 're done with the job , i 'll give you a bonus . curtis : wow , that 's very , very generous . nina : okay . curtis : could get expensive . nina : it does n't matter . this particular job -- money is no object . curtis : what exactly is this project ? and what do you want from me ? nina : i want you to find me a baby . [ scene_break ] kiki : a manic ep -- no , that is -- that is not what i was saying . morgan : well , then what were you saying ? kiki : i just think it 's nice that you have something that you 're so passionate about . morgan : yeah , besides you , yeah . kiki : yeah , besides me . i mean , do n't take this wrong way . i 'm flattered that i matter so much to you , but ... morgan : i mean , do n't be flattered . just -- you know , just accept it . it 's a fact of life . kiki : okay , it 's accepted . it 's just nice that you have an outside project . morgan : mm - hmm . kiki : you know what ? sally is actually going to kill me if i do n't get back to work . morgan : yeah , yeah , yeah , go . i 'm not gon na get in your way , i mean , now that some of the customers are gone . i think you know who i mean . kiki : yep , i am glad that my mother left , too . morgan : among others . [ scene_break ] ava : i was afraid that you would n't want to work with me , well , because i know that things were moving forward between you and kiki before they were n't . dillon : that was between me and kiki . ava : right . i do n't -- i do n't want to pry . dillon : uh - huh . ava : i just want to say one thing . i saw what happened between you and kiki earlier . dillon : [ chuckles ] yeah , you mean me scalding myself . ava : after that -- it 's clear the two of you still have a connection . dillon : clearly , she has a stronger one with morgan . ava : we 'll see . dillon : you lost me . ava : dillon , if you 're still interested in kiki , you definitely have a chance with her .

'cause you -- you took her itty , bitty little birdy and you put it into sharon 's nest . dr. anderson : [ scoffs ] patty : sharon wanted a baby , and you helped . you took sage and nick 's baby . dr. anderson : the words of a woman suffering from paranoid delusions . patty : all i have to do is whisper those words to sage . dr. anderson : if you told anyone that story , they would lock you up and lose the key . patty : except there 's this thing called science . and one little dna test will confirm that this cracker house kitty knows the truth . adam : i know that you 're not thrilled about me working with my father , but i can guarantee you something -- i am not turning into him , okay ? chelsea : adam , i have accepted how important it is for you to work at newman . i have . i just have to make sure that victor does not get between us . or the truth . adam : baby , the truth is that you 're the love of my life . and the truth is that i do n't want to be anywhere but right here with you , and the truth is it is exhausting thinking of a life without you . that 's the truth . chelsea : well . you will never have to imagine a life without me . as long as you 're honest . marisa : i 'm the reason luca 's in genoa city . i did this to you . noah : no . no , my grandfather did this . he made a deal with the santoris , and then he tried to force them out . he started this war . marisa : and you want to punish him . noah : punish -- he kidnapped you ! marisa : [ sighs ] noah : he 's brought down hell on the people that i love -- people that do n't deserve it . you know , adam may be fine just going along , but i refuse . marisa : because you 're honest and you 're brave . look , there is one way you can pay victor back , but you 'd have to be prepared to deal with the consequences . noah : i 'm listening . marisa : be happy with me . anywhere you want . noah : you 'd really come with me ? marisa : i should never have let you go . noah : and luca ? it 's really over ? marisa : i love you . i never stopped . and i can only hope that you still love me . victor : you have lit the match to what 's ahead . but i 'll let you walk away now . so get the hell out of my office , all right ? luca : i 'm going to turn this decaying war horse of a company into a real force . not some gravestone to an old man 's ego . victor : get out . and listen carefully , punk . do n't for one moment think that this is over . now get out . dylan : did you get through to patty ? paul : yeah , it looks like she had a complete psychotic break brought on by trauma . paul : so my sister brutally killed her doctor in cold blood for no apparent reason . dylan : what -- hold -- hold on . maybe there is a reason . we just need to find another way to get to it . paul : oh , right . dylan : okay , listen . just listen to me for a second . sage is convinced that patty knew about dr. anderson 's hidden past . so maybe dr. anderson initiated something ... paul : you know -- dylan : ... that we do n't -- paul : dylan , i really appreciate your optimism , but this was n't self - defense . let 's face it . you got any facts to back that up ? any evidence ? dylan : we 're still investigating , paul . paul : right . i looked at patty . i checked out her arms . there was no apparent sign of a struggle . all she had was ... dr. anderson 's blood on her shirt . now , i deluded myself thinking that my love could restore my sister . it really does n't matter that dr. anderson has secrets , now , does it ? because it 's pretty clear . my sister is insane . i mean , she 's in there -- i thought she was getting better , you know . pretty clear she was n't . the sister i know is not coming back . i think it 's high time i face that fact . sage : to get so close to the truth and never know sandy 's side of the story . nick : hey , you 're safe . that is all that matters . dylan : [ sighs ] nick : hey . anything ? dylan : no . sharon : it 's just hard to believe that a woman who helped our family so much had a secret agenda against nick and sage . dylan : yeah , another piece that does n't fit . so you were partly responsible for dr. anderson being paralyzed . nick : yeah . dylan : and then you never spoke to her again , and that made her pursue you more . it just does n't make any sense . sage : maybe patty really does know the truth . nick : maybe all the answers we want are locked inside her head . dr. anderson : congratulations , patty . you solved the puzzle . patty : i knew it . dr. anderson : nick was partly responsible for a diving accident that almost left me paralyzed for life . i recovered , thanks to the wonderful doctors that his family 's money paid for . but nick never loved me . never supported me . patty : he abandoned you . dr. anderson : i wanted to break nick 's heart like he broke mine , kill his dreams like he killed mine . so , yes , i stole nick 's baby to punish him . then i spent time with him , looked into his eyes . felt the gentleness of his soul . patty : you fell back in love . dr. anderson : perhaps i never really stopped loving him . patty : and you were trying to get sage out of the way . dr. anderson : you know how far someone will go for love , do n't you ? patty : shoot them once or twice , maybe ? pretend to be someone else , but -- no . wait . no . no , no , no . you took a baby . an innocent little sweet pea . i have to tell them the truth . i do , doc . i 'm gon na tell them -- dr. anderson : i 'm sorry , patty , but you wo n't be telling anyone . patty : no , do n't you -- dr. anderson : [ gasps ] patty : no ! dr. anderson : no ! do n't ! stop ! stop ! [ screams ] patty : [ groans ] [ dr. anderson screams ] patty : [ gasps ] if that horse and cart fall down , you 'll still be the sweetest little baby in town [ next_on ] abby : i want to know what 's going on . right now . victor : where the hell have you been , and where is this fancy program i paid you for ? neil : hey ! i 'm gon na drink if i want to , and there 's nothing that you can do about it . do you hear me ?
dylan arrives home but sharon is not there . at fairview , nick and sharon have arrived to talk to dr. anderson but to their horror find her dead in her office . sharon wants to call the police but nick stops her . sage tries to get answers out of patty but all she wants to do is sing . at the coffeehouse , noah tries to strike up a deal with luca to take down victor , but luca insists they 're not friends . in victor 's office , adam thanks chelsea for not telling billy about noah hitting him and then running off . victor comes into the office and interrupts them . victor asks for some time alone with adam , but chelsea says she knows about the blackmail . she then excuses herself and leaves . adam tells victor that noah was about to turn himself in , but they stopped him . adam also tells victor about his plan to get noah out of town for his own good . victor asks him what good that would do . at the bar in the newman towers , chelsea sits down beside marisa and tells her that she knows about noah hitting billy . noah joins them and tells them that adam arranged for him a one - way ticket out of town .
<s>[INST] dylan : hey , i 'm home ! sharon ? hello ? nick : you did n't need to come , sharon . sharon : well , the sitter was close and the kids are safe . and besides , i need answers from sandra allen myself . nick : okay , just let me talk to her first , all right ? sharon : [ gasps ] nick : sandy ? sharon : oh , my god . oh , my god . oh , my god . nick : just wait , wait , wait , wait . sharon : nick ? is she -- we got to call the police . we need to get help . nick : do n't . no , no , no . just -- just stop . just -- just wait a second . patty : hush little baby , do n't say a word sage : patty . it 's sage . patty , are you all right ? did dr. anderson do something to you ? can you talk to me ? please , patty . can you tell me what you said earlier about sharon being drugged and confused ? what kind of things did dr. anderson tell her ? patty : a mockingbird sage : is that why you 're like this right now ? did dr. anderson do something to you , patty ? are you okay ? [ gasps ] noah : i stay in town , your blackmail 's still in play . we take down my grandfather like we talked about . luca : how foolish and naive do you think i would have to be , noah ? noah : i want payback . for all the times my grandfather crossed the line , hurt people that i loved , wrecked their lives , all in the name of protecting our family . he assumes that i 'm loyal , so if we work together , he wo n't know what hit him . luca : [ chuckles ] we 're not friends , noah . far from it . you do n't like me . noah : no , i do n't like you , and you do n't respect me . i guess that makes us even . so i 'm gon na keep on reminding you -- we want the same thing . luca : okay , for victor newman to step aside -- is that it ? to bow to the inevitable ? noah : and stay the hell out of our way . like it or not , luca , you 're the only person i can work with on the inside . partner . adam : thank you for not telling billy it was noah that was behind the wheel of the car that hit him . chelsea : billy 's at peace . finally looking forward to his future . to tell him the truth would gut him , and i wo n't be responsible for that . i 've already hurt him enough already . adam : yeah . well , i 'm glad he 's at peace , you know ? and i 'm glad he has a second chance with his wife and his kids . i 'm hoping i still have a chance with you . [ door opens ] [ door slams ] adam : hmm . victor : you holding court in my office ? huh ? adam : i did n't expect you back so soon . how was the 32nd honeymoon ? victor : uh , chelsea , would you excuse us ? chelsea : you do n't need to dismiss me , victor . adam has told me everything . i know about the blackmail . victor : and you 're still here . luca : you and me against victor -- i have to admit , it 's not an alliance anyone would expect . noah : someone has to stop him . it 's not just about marisa , luca . he went after my mother . he 's devastated the abbotts in more ways than i can count . it has to stop . luca : yeah , i 'll drink to that . noah : do we have a deal ? luca : deal . noah : be ready . victor 's gon na come at you with everything 's he got . luca : i can take care of myself . in case you have n't noticed , adam 's still licking his wounds . noah : on the topic of family , stay away from summer . she 's not a part of this . luca : smart , gorgeous , she 'll be a pleasure to work with , and possibly useful . noah : she 's off limits , luca . off limits . you understand me ? luca : so protective . i 'm just wondering -- what would your sister think if she knew big brother was plotting to bring down the grandfather she loves so much ? noah : i 'm just taking a page out of victor 's playbook . adam : i had to tell chelsea about luca 's blackmail . victor : the reason i cut my trip short with nikki is because your decision- making powers leave not to be desired . adam : right , well , see , luca , uh , luca threatened to go to the police about noah 's accident . once i found that out , i felt like chelsea should know , as well . victor : she almost married noah 's victim . are you thinking at all ? chelsea : okay , um , i 'm standing right here , victor , and you do n't have to worry . i 'm not gon na turn in noah , and i wo n't tell billy . victor : you ran to billy , if i may remind you , to expose him . adam : wow . victor : how do we know you 're not gon na do it a second time ? chelsea : i 'm standing by my husband in his decisions . adam told because it involves family , and we do n't keep secrets from each other . victor : really ? oh . trust in marriage is a wonderful thing , is n't it ? it 's wonderful , especially when a child is involved . is n't that true , adam ? sharon : nick , the woman is dead ! we have got to call the police ! nick : okay , just give me a second , give me a second , all right ? we got to think this through , for everyone 's sake . sharon : you do n't believe -- i mean , you think sage -- nick : look , i do n't know what i believe right now . sharon : your wife is not crazy . she would n't have just attacked dr. anderson . nick : now that we know who she really is , how obsessed she was with undermining my marriage , what if she attacked sage ? this could be self- defense . sharon : [ sighs ] nick : all right , come on . sharon : where are you going ? nick : i got to find sage . she was n't in her room . sharon : oh . wait . wait , it 's dylan . hi , dylan ! dylan : hey . i 'm back from switzerland , and i miss you like crazy . where are you and sully ? sharon : [ sighs ] dylan : sharon ? you there ? nick : dylan , it 's me , nick . look , you need to get fairview right now . sage : oh , god . how did this happen , patty ? how did you hurt yourself ? [ sighs ] are you still bleeding ? let me help you . oh , okay , um -- i 'm gon na be right back , okay ? you need to stay here , patty . everything 's gon na be okay . nick . what are you doing here ? nick : thank god you 're okay . sharon : blood ? sage : oh , it 's -- it 's not mine . nick : what happened ? nick : whose blood is that ? sage : it 's patty 's . nick : where is she ? sage : she 's in there . she 's completely out of it and wo n't talk to me . we need to get a doctor . dr. anderson 's office is the closest , but she 's not gon na like that . sharon : anderson treating patty wo n't be a problem anymore . sage : what do you mean ? nick : that blood is not patty 's . it 's sandy 's . we just found her in her office . she 's stabbed . she 's dead . sage : patty killed dr. anderson ? nick , we have to call the police or some -- nick : i already called them . i already called them . they 're on their way . chelsea : adam and i have made some mistakes , sure , but we get it now . no lies , no secrets . that is the key to a successful marriage . victor : i hope that you appreciate her love of the truth , adam . adam : this one ? are you kidding me ? yeah , of course i -- victor : you do ? adam : of course i appreciate her . i appreciate you every single day of my life . listen , my father and i -- we 've got a couple of business things i want to talk about with him . do you mind -- chelsea : no , no , no , no , no . you are not dismissing me again . adam : do you plan on being a part of every single conversation i ever have with my father , because eventually , babe , you 're gon na have to trust me . chelsea : what ca n't you discuss in front of me ? i work here , too . adam : no , no , it 's not -- it 's nothing , you know , it 's not like , secret or anything . it 's just number - crunching and boring stuff , and i was just thinking , you know , maybe you could go home and try on something sexy and ... meet you there later , hmm ? chelsea : fine , but we are finishing our discussion when you get home . adam : i 'm looking forward to that . victor : would you kindly hold your private conversations outside in the future ? thank you . adam : see you in a bit , baby . are you serious , man ? you 're bringing up sage 's baby in front of chelsea like that ? victor : you talking about luca 's blackmail and noah ? do n't you know that anything that 's discussed within these walls stays here ? adam : that woman can be trusted , all right ? let me tell you something , it 's noah you should be worried about . luca : adam 's going to be furious when he finds out you did n't take the plane ticket and leave the country . noah : he 'll never know . i 'll lay low . when i make my move , victor will never see it coming . neither will adam . luca : you seem very sure of yourself . noah : i see what i want . i go for it . oh , good . let me guess . you 're here to escort me home ? pack my bags ? mr. santori , mr. newman 's returned . he wants to see you in his office . paul : so what have we got ? nick : the body is down in her office . first door on the right . paul : okay , secure the crime scene . i 'll catch up with you later . all right , i 'm gon na have to confer with security to make sure this building 's -- dylan : it 's on lockdown . it 's already done . nobody 's coming in or out . trying to keep the press in the dark for as long as possible . paul : okay . good work . that 's key . i 'm gon na check it out . dylan : okay . what are you doing here ? sharon : nick and sage realized there was something seriously wrong with dr. anderson , and they decided to investigate . sage became a patient . dylan : what ? this -- it was all an act ? you attacking dr. anderson ? and you agreeing to have sage committed ? nick : it seemed like the only way we could get some answers . dylan : [ sighs ] wow . i have so many questions i do n't even know where to start . that still does n't explain why you 're here . sharon : i just found out that my doctor was n't who we really thought she was , and it was disconcerting . i -- i wanted to help . dylan : i know , but now dr. anderson has been murdered , and you could have been hurt . you should have come to me with this . sharon : nick just told me . you were in switzerland . there was n't time for that . sage : dylan , sharon has given us real insight into dr. anderson . although , i do n't think we 'll ever really know the whole truth now . nick : that 's why sharon and i are here . we found out dr. anderson was lying about who she was , so we came down here to confront her . dylan : well , who the hell was she ? sharon : a woman who fell in love with nick and very long time ago . adam : noah got it into his head to play martyr . he was gon na run to the police . he was gon na tell them everything . thankfully , i was able to stop him . victor : if you expect me to thank you , you 're sorely mistaken , all right ? i 'm hardly out of town . i come back to a circus , for heaven 's sake . obviously my trust in you was sorely mistaken . adam : your trust in me ? you mean like you trusting me with the information about noah 's hit - and - run ? that kind of trust ? let me tell you something . if i had that little tidbit of information , maybe i would have played my cards a little bit differently and maybe luca would be out on his ear right now . but not to worry . i figured it out . i 'm fixing it . victor : how are you fixing it ? adam : i have noah on a plane out of the country . he leaves tomorrow . victor : oh , really ? what good will that do ? adam : well , it removes him from the equation , luca loses his leverage , and you and i can focus on grinding the santoris into dust . chelsea : i 'll have one of those , please . i know . marisa : you know what ? chelsea : why you were so upset earlier . what you would n't tell me . [ clears throat ] marisa : i , uh -- chelsea : i know what noah did . marisa : i do n't know what you 're talking about . chelsea : for someone who knows her way around a lie or two , you really need to work on your face because your eyes give it all away . marisa : you know , it 's been a long day . chelsea : and the man you love is in trouble . and he just walked in . marisa : please do n't turn him in . noah : hey . what 's going on ? chelsea : i know you ran down billy . marisa : it was an accident . he did n't realize he had hit someone . noah : so adam told you . did he also tell you about the one - way ticket that he just bought me out of the country ? chelsea : the smartest thing you can do is get on that plane and never look back . nick : sage found a book hidden in her office on paralysis . that was the first clue . sage : and nick was the one who finally put it all together . sharon : as far as we can tell , sandy was obsessed with nick . she overcame her paralysis , she got married , she became a doctor , and then she got a divorce . she kept his name , but she came back to genoa city to infiltrate our lives to get close to nick . dylan : is it because she loves him or because she blamed him ? nick : one time , we were talking about sage and she kissed me . dylan : all right , i guess that answers that question . sage : having me committed got the competition out of the way . dylan : well , nick 's past with dr. anderson still does n't explain why she was murdered . paul : do we have any idea who 's responsible ? nick : paul , i 'm so sorry . it was patty . patty : hello , dr. anderson . dr. anderson : you ca n't just barge in , patty . patty : well , i just did , so i guess i can . dr. anderson : please leave . patty : not until we have a chitty - chat about a wee little baby . sharon : it 's not like patty premeditated this , though , because she did n't cover it up , right ? dylan : well , we 're not gon na know until we can talk to patty , but it may not be possible . paul : dylan , i know how patty felt about dr. anderson . she was scared to death of her . i knew that and i left her here . dylan : paul , you ca n't take this on yourself . paul : really ? i did nothing . i got to talk to her . paul : [ sighs ] dylan : [ sighs ] well , uh , i got to get some official statements . sage , you -- you up for this ? you okay ? sage : yeah , of course . dylan : okay , come on . sharon : nothing you did led up to this moment . there was a lot about dr. anderson , or sandy , that we did n't know . nick : i remember getting introduced to her . i remember thinking , you know , i 'd met her before . why did n't i put it together then ? sharon : she did everything she could to hide her identity . nick : i remember going to see her in the hospital after the accident . sharon : i thought you never saw her again . nick : i went once , and ... she was still unconscious . i just told her how sorry i was that i had had that party and that there was drinking there and that i had drawn her into jumping in the pool . i swore to her i 'd do everything i could for her , you know ? i 'd stayed in touch . and that was the last time i saw her . i did try and contact her , but -- sharon : it 's pretty hard to stay in touch with someone when the family 's been paid to stay away from you . nick : it was one night -- one stupid night that changed her life forever . sharon : you tried to do the right thing , nick . and then victor did his damage control , and we 're all still paying for it . luca : victor . how was your trip ? you post some selfies ? but then you 're -- you 're more of an oil painting kind of guy . victor : [ chuckles ] you 're a punk , are n't you ? how dare you threaten my grandson . luca : noah committed a crime , left a man for dead . like uncle , like nephew , i guess . must be a family tradition . victor : you made a grave mistake . luca : are you not the least bit impressed ? i thought you of all people would appreciate a worthy adversary . adam : i would n't be throwing around the word `` worthy `` like that , you know -- victor : adam , that 's enough , okay ? luca : i made a brilliant move , shifted the balance of power to the santoris . fair and square . all because your son overplayed his hand . adam : you know , here 's the thing about you , man , that you just do n't understand -- victor : adam , i will handle this myself , thank you . please go now . adam : yeah , i really feel like i should be here , dad . victor : i will handle this myself . luca : maybe next time you play with the big boys , you 'll be more prepared . victor : you 're a cocky bastard , are n't you ? and you think you 've won . luca : and everyone said it was impossible to beat victor newman . [ chuckles ] victor : no one beats victor newman . you understand that ? you 're playing with a big boy now . noah : you think i should run . chelsea : and never look back . noah : i committed a crime , chelsea . marisa : you did n't know . chelsea : you 're guilty of a hit - and - run , noah . your punishment will be living with that for the rest of your life . someplace else . marisa : are you gon na do it ? chelsea : he is . and he 's taking you with him . trust me . adam and i , we had this chance -- to leave genoa city and to live our own lives , but instead , we stayed , and now we are stuck . we are trapped under victor 's heel . do not make the same mistake we did , noah . go now -- while you still can . marisa : chelsea , noah -- noah and i are n't together . chelsea : okay . i 've seen the way you guys look at each other , okay ? things are n't perfect , but you 're in love . if you go , you 're free . if you stay , this secret will haunt you . plus , victor will be a part of every single breath you take . is that really what you want ? paul : will you tell me what happened ? can you do that ? [ patty hums ] paul : just tell me -- why did you think dr. anderson was such a monster ? what did she say to you ? did she try and hurt you ? can you tell me if she tried to hurt you ? were you -- were you defending yourself ? [ patty humming ] paul : come on , patty . patty : do n't you cry mommy 's gon na sing you a lullaby paul : geez . [ humming continues ] paul : you do n't even know what you did , do you ? i 'm sorry . i never should have left you here . come on , sweetheart . dr. anderson did n't make it , okay ? so this is pretty serious business here . i know you would n't -- you would n't have done it without a reason . so can you help me ? can you help me ? can you tell me ? tell me what happened . please . patty : hush little baby , do n't say a word paul : oh , god . patty : mama 's gon na buy you a cow - cowbird paul : i 'm so sorry . [ patty hums ] victor : far more powerful men have come after me . if i were you , i would end this now . luca : you 're all talk , victor . threats , the death stare . you ca n't touch me . not if you want noah to be safe . victor : i promise you -- you do n't want to find out what i 'm capable of . luca : what , are you gon na do to me what you did to marco annicelli ? well , go for it . but just so you know , i 've left two files with my lawyer -- one details noah 's hit - and - run and the cover - up , and the other ? well , the other 's much more interesting . it 's all about you and your dirty dealings with annicelli . so even if you kill me , i 'll die happy knowing you 'll spend the rest of your life in prison . maybe in a cell right next to your grandson . marisa : so you 're still going through with it -- your big plan to get back at victor . noah : my plan with luca , who 's agreed to work with me . i assume you 're still upset about that . marisa : because you ca n't trust him . and you know victor 's dangerous . please , let it -- let it go . noah : let it go . and just go into hiding ? like a coward ? marisa : you 'd be safe . noah : and my grandfather gets away with everything that he 's done . you know what adam told me ? he told me i should just accept how victor rules the world with all of his threats and his lies . i ca n't do that . i ca n't accept that . marisa : [ sighs ] then start a new life . noah : and do what ? just leave behind my family , my friends -- marisa : no . chelsea was right . you would n't be alone . i 'd go with you . [ door closes ] adam : you did n't unpack . i thought we , uh -- i thought we were good . chelsea : i just need you to be honest with me . about everything . that is the only way that we are going to survive . adam : you wanted honesty . i gave it to you . even though it probably was n't what you wanted to hear . could you please , just , you know ... stay ? sage : patty said that she could help me . she had secrets about this place . she seemed terrified of the doctor . dylan : there 's nothing more specific ? sage : um , yeah , patty said that sandy filled sharon 's head with -- i do n't know what . she did n't tell me . she said that she escaped the night of the fire to warn you . dylan : yeah , that 's right . jack relayed patty 's message not trust her . sage : yeah . dylan : but dr. anderson swore that she was talking about sharon . sage : well , patty was adamant the warning was about anderson . if dr. anderson thought that patty could expose her , do you think maybe she attacked first ? dylan : [ sighs ] patty acting in self - defense ? i do n't know . that would mean dr. anderson 's past was a big enough secret to kill for . sage : yeah , well , knowing what we know about dr. anderson , i would not be surprised if there 's a lot more that she 's hiding . sharon : i bared my soul to that woman . i mean , she treated me . she prescribed me medication . and then to find out all this time , she had an ulterior motive -- it 's frightening . nick : well , luckily you were n't her target . all her rage was directed at my wife . you , she tried to help , which i 'm thankful for . sharon : you know , the other thing that confuses me is patty . she 's so untethered most of the time . how did she figure out that dr. anderson was dishonest ? is that why she thinks the woman is evil ? nick : it still feels like we 're missing a piece of the puzzle . dr. anderson : go back to your room , patty . patty : sharon thought she had a womb with a view , but it was vacant . dr. anderson : you 're not making sense . patty : [ chuckles ] you kept her away from her family for months so they would n't know . dr. anderson : no , that was sharon 's choice . patty : yeah . you must have given her some crazy good drugs , because she held her belly , and she talked to it . but no one was listening , 'cause there was nothing inside . so where did that baby come from , doc , hmm ? i know it was n't a stork . it was you . dr. anderson : i know this all seems very real to you , patty , but your cognitive processing is compromised due to the lack of proper medication . patty : it 's so sad because sage thought she lost her baby . but she did n't . 'cause you -- you took her itty , bitty little birdy and you put it into sharon 's nest . dr. anderson : [ scoffs ] patty : sharon wanted a baby , and you helped . you took sage and nick 's baby . dr. anderson : the words of a woman suffering from paranoid delusions . patty : all i have to do is whisper those words to sage . dr. anderson : if you told anyone that story , they would lock you up and lose the key . patty : except there 's this thing called science . and one little dna test will confirm that this cracker house kitty knows the truth . adam : i know that you 're not thrilled about me working with my father , but i can guarantee you something -- i am not turning into him , okay ? chelsea : adam , i have accepted how important it is for you to work at newman . i have . i just have to make sure that victor does not get between us . or the truth . adam : baby , the truth is that you 're the love of my life . and the truth is that i do n't want to be anywhere but right here with you , and the truth is it is exhausting thinking of a life without you . that 's the truth . chelsea : well . you will never have to imagine a life without me . as long as you 're honest . marisa : i 'm the reason luca 's in genoa city . i did this to you . noah : no . no , my grandfather did this . he made a deal with the santoris , and then he tried to force them out . he started this war . marisa : and you want to punish him . noah : punish -- he kidnapped you ! marisa : [ sighs ] noah : he 's brought down hell on the people that i love -- people that do n't deserve it . you know , adam may be fine just going along , but i refuse . marisa : because you 're honest and you 're brave . look , there is one way you can pay victor back , but you 'd have to be prepared to deal with the consequences . noah : i 'm listening . marisa : be happy with me . anywhere you want . noah : you 'd really come with me ? marisa : i should never have let you go . noah : and luca ? it 's really over ? marisa : i love you . i never stopped . and i can only hope that you still love me . victor : you have lit the match to what 's ahead . but i 'll let you walk away now . so get the hell out of my office , all right ? luca : i 'm going to turn this decaying war horse of a company into a real force . not some gravestone to an old man 's ego . victor : get out . and listen carefully , punk . do n't for one moment think that this is over . now get out . dylan : did you get through to patty ? paul : yeah , it looks like she had a complete psychotic break brought on by trauma . paul : so my sister brutally killed her doctor in cold blood for no apparent reason . dylan : what -- hold -- hold on . maybe there is a reason . we just need to find another way to get to it . paul : oh , right . dylan : okay , listen . just listen to me for a second . sage is convinced that patty knew about dr. anderson 's hidden past . so maybe dr. anderson initiated something ... paul : you know -- dylan : ... that we do n't -- paul : dylan , i really appreciate your optimism , but this was n't self - defense . let 's face it . you got any facts to back that up ? any evidence ? dylan : we 're still investigating , paul . paul : right . i looked at patty . i checked out her arms . there was no apparent sign of a struggle . all she had was ... dr. anderson 's blood on her shirt . now , i deluded myself thinking that my love could restore my sister . it really does n't matter that dr. anderson has secrets , now , does it ? because it 's pretty clear . my sister is insane . i mean , she 's in there -- i thought she was getting better , you know . pretty clear she was n't . the sister i know is not coming back . i think it 's high time i face that fact . sage : to get so close to the truth and never know sandy 's side of the story . nick : hey , you 're safe . that is all that matters . dylan : [ sighs ] nick : hey . anything ? dylan : no . sharon : it 's just hard to believe that a woman who helped our family so much had a secret agenda against nick and sage . dylan : yeah , another piece that does n't fit . so you were partly responsible for dr. anderson being paralyzed . nick : yeah . dylan : and then you never spoke to her again , and that made her pursue you more . it just does n't make any sense . sage : maybe patty really does know the truth . nick : maybe all the answers we want are locked inside her head . dr. anderson : congratulations , patty . you solved the puzzle . patty : i knew it . dr. anderson : nick was partly responsible for a diving accident that almost left me paralyzed for life . i recovered , thanks to the wonderful doctors that his family 's money paid for . but nick never loved me . never supported me . patty : he abandoned you . dr. anderson : i wanted to break nick 's heart like he broke mine , kill his dreams like he killed mine . so , yes , i stole nick 's baby to punish him . then i spent time with him , looked into his eyes . felt the gentleness of his soul . patty : you fell back in love . dr. anderson : perhaps i never really stopped loving him . patty : and you were trying to get sage out of the way . dr. anderson : you know how far someone will go for love , do n't you ? patty : shoot them once or twice , maybe ? pretend to be someone else , but -- no . wait . no . no , no , no . you took a baby . an innocent little sweet pea . i have to tell them the truth . i do , doc . i 'm gon na tell them -- dr. anderson : i 'm sorry , patty , but you wo n't be telling anyone . patty : no , do n't you -- dr. anderson : [ gasps ] patty : no ! dr. anderson : no ! do n't ! stop ! stop ! [ screams ] patty : [ groans ] [ dr. anderson screams ] patty : [ gasps ] if that horse and cart fall down , you 'll still be the sweetest little baby in town [ next_on ] abby : i want to know what 's going on . right now . victor : where the hell have you been , and where is this fancy program i paid you for ? neil : hey ! i 'm gon na drink if i want to , and there 's nothing that you can do about it . do you hear me ?Summarize.[/INST]dylan arrives home but sharon is not there . at fairview , nick and sharon have arrived to talk to dr. anderson but to their horror find her dead in her office . sharon wants to call the police but nick stops her . sage tries to get answers out of patty but all she wants to do is sing . at the coffeehouse , noah tries to strike up a deal with luca to take down victor , but luca insists they 're not friends . in victor 's office , adam thanks chelsea for not telling billy about noah hitting him and then running off . victor comes into the office and interrupts them . victor asks for some time alone with adam , but chelsea says she knows about the blackmail . she then excuses herself and leaves . adam tells victor that noah was about to turn himself in , but they stopped him . adam also tells victor about his plan to get noah out of town for his own good . victor asks him what good that would do . at the bar in the newman towers , chelsea sits down beside marisa and tells her that she knows about noah hitting billy . noah joins them and tells them that adam arranged for him a one - way ticket out of town .</s>

[ sighs ] oh , by the way , i noticed you put it back , minus three bullets . at least you did n't waste any of 'em . will : you ca n't make me call a lawyer . hope : do n't be stupid about this . abe : about what ? hope : i ca n't let you do this . will : it 's not your call to make . abe : is there a problem here ? will : i shot nick fallon , and i want to confess ! hope : i keep telling you to stop talking ! not another word . he wo n't call an attorney . abe : well , then we damn well better read him his rights . you have the right to remain silent . anything you say can and will be held against you in a court of law . you have a right to an attorney and to have an attorney present during questioning . if you can not afford an attorney and desire one , one will be appointed for you . sonny : [ scoffs ] okay . that 's why you were pushing me to take that job in indonesia . you were trying to protect me . victor : from the cops and your own stupidity . sonny : thanks . victor : look , the job is still there , but we got ta get you out of here tonight . sonny : tonight ? victor : sonny , there is no time . you made a huge mistake selecting that particular gun . it 's a collector 's item . ballistics is gon na tie it to the crime in no time flat . i threw the cops off the scent for now , but ... even the salem pd is not gon na miss this one . sonny : i got ta find will . victor : i 'll send him over later , but right now you 've got to go ! sonny : i got ta get out of here , i got ta get out of here right now . victor : oh , my god . you did n't kill nick . will did . abe : do you understand these rights ? will : i do . but i wan na make one thing clear before i start . i do n't want you to tell anyone that i came here tonight . hope : i think you need to slow down . will : i am over 21 , this is my business , and i have a right to privacy . abe : he 's right , hope . you 've done your best . please . please state your name and that you are willingly and without coercion waiving your rights to an attorney . will : my name is william horton , and i am waiving my right to an attorney . hope : you 're still gon na need one when it 's time to enter a plea . will : fine . but right now all i wan na do is tell you what happened that night . hope : you 've already given a sworn statement that you 're innocent , that you did n't shoot nick fallon . will : [ sighs ] i lied . and now i wan na tell the truth . hope : why now ? will : maybe because it feels like i 've been lying all my life , and i 'm sick of it . maybe i finally just wan na own up to what i did . hope : okay . let 's start from the beginning . aiden : uh , no , the , uh , location for the auction has n't been nailed down just yet , but we are excited about some of our prospects . so thank you again for your contribution , mrs. taylor . okay , all right , we 'll see you there . all right , bye - bye . marlena : sounds like the auction is taking over your life . aiden : oh . well , hope has her hands full at work , and i thought i 'd just pick up the slack . good to be busy , right ? marlena : good to be busy . aiden : yeah . marlena : speaking of hope , may i ask you something ? aiden : shoot . marlena : well ... the last time that i saw you , uh , you asked about my professional services for personal reasons . and then hope came in , and you dropped the subject and have n't , uh , contacted me since then . paige : bev , what does jj have to do with this ? bev : look , i just do n't want anyone knowing about it , okay ? paige : but you specifically said jj . should he know about it ? bev : he is not the reason i took it . paige : bev , listen . bev : no , you listen . you 're the one that was snooping around , and when you do that , you ca n't blame the other person for what you find . paige : i was n't snooping around . bev : and sometimes you 're gon na find things you do n't wan na know about .

[ sighs ] we were up against a wall . hope : `` we `` ? will : sonny and i . he was as frustrated as i was . and one day ... [ sighs ] he came home with a gun that he took from his uncle 's . hope : victor . will : i told him that he was crazy , that he could n't do this , and he saw that i was right . so we took the gun , and we put it on the top shelf of our closet until he could sneak it back into his uncle 's place . and as far as sonny is concerned , that 's where the gun stayed until after the murder . aiden : [ sighs ] um ... oh . you think hope 's the reason why i have n't been in touch ? no , no , no , you could n't be more wrong . no , the , um -- the issue that i wanted to talk to you about , it -- well , it ended up resolving itself . i mean , i should 've called you , told you that . i 'm sorry . marlena : no need to apologize . i just want you to know that i 'm here if you need to talk to me , that 's all . roman : hey , uh ... am i interrupting something ? aiden : do you two know each other ? roman : uh , sort of . we used to be married . aiden : you were married ? really ? and you 're still friends ? that 's great . marlena : yeah . could you just give me one more second ? aiden : hey , roman , i wan na say thank you again for taking one for the team . i owe you . roman : you do owe me . aiden : yeah . roman : hope owes me . the entire parish owes me . marlena : why does everybody owe you ? aiden : well , our biggest donor was making some noises that she was n't gon na attend this year . but then she set her terms . she 's gon na be coming , but only if roman is her date . marlena : [ laughing ] wow . that 's just a little tacky , do n't you think ?

hope : oh , my god . your doctor 's out there talking to mom right now . katie : hope , maybe you should take her home . hope : he 's going to come in here and tell you that there 's nothing wrong with you . then what ? ridge : he 's gon na assume that it was some kind of a transient episode that did n't show up -- hope : i really do n't feel like listening to you right now . i 'm just -- i 'm still a little disillusioned at the moment . ridge : okay . hope : you broke my mom 's heart and ever since you came back , she 's been beating herself up trying to be good enough for you . and all this time , you 're secretly involved with her sister . katie : no , hope . there 's no involvement . hope : wait . wait . i 'm sorry . you -- you just told me that you were in love with him . and it did not come as a shock to you , so -- [ scoffs ] i mean , i think you guys were right to stop the wedding . you can not marry my mom if you 're having feelings for her sister .

[ scene_break ] [ doorbell rings ] bill : hi . brooke : [ sighs ] bill : i 'd be lying if i said i was sorry . how 's katie doing ? brooke : she 's doing good . bill : good . can i come in ? brooke : have you been drinking ? bill : that was before . brooke : you did n't drive here , did you ? bill : no , no . i told my driver i would call him if i needed him . brooke : okay . well , you should come in and give him a call . bill : packing or unpacking ? brooke : packing . bill : obviously not for a honeymoon . brooke : obviously . bill : ridge is n't here , is he ? brooke : no , he 's taking care of your wife . bill : she 's not my wife . and you 're not his . brooke : i will be very soon . bill : you think this might have been a sign ? that the wedding was n't supposed to happen . brooke : bill , you and i have been many things , but meant to be is n't one of them . bill : how do you know ? how do you know ? brooke : because there 's been a lot of damage . that 's how i know . bill : let me take you to dinner . brooke : i ca n't . bill : let me love you for the rest of your life . brooke : now , that would have been nice . i would have wanted that more than anything . but everything was poisoned . you know that . bill : so what do you want to do instead ? keep wishing for things that ca n't be ? katie will never take me back , brooke . brooke : i know , and i tried to fix that for you . i did , but ... bill : it was the wrong life for me . brooke : yeah . yeah , i guess it was . you are really very special . there 's no one like you . bill : let me stay . brooke : bill . bill : come upstairs with me . brooke : no . [ scoffs ] bill : he does n't love you the way i do . brooke : i do n't want him to .

hope tells ridge and katie that she is disillusioned right now . ever since ridge came back , her mom has been beating herself up trying to prove that she is good enough for him . and now she finds they are involved with each other . so at least she agrees they are right to stop the wedding . she tells ridge hat he can not marry her mom if he has feelings for brooke 's sister . ridge says it looks like she is saying they are guilty of something so what is it . hope says they are having an emotional entanglement . ridge says they have done nothing wrong . hope says that does not make it right though . dr. patrick and brooke join them and he says conclusively they have re - run some tests and katie did not have a heart attack . everything looks healthy . he will discharge her but to be safe only if she has an adult who can be with her and look after her for the next 24 hours . katie suggests hope can stay with her . she agrees until she remembers she has to go to paris tonight for a showing and she really wanted brooke also to go along . she suggests perhaps ridge can look after katie . brooke gives ridge a kiss and glad he is understanding about this . alone , katie asks hope what is she thinking . hope says they need to think over what they are doing and now this will give them the opportunity to do that . katie keeps saying there is no affair . hope says okay , love without the affair but do you think brooke will hear if differently . ridge says it was figured out . he was supposed to be married right now . he can not control how someone makes him feel , but he was gon na marry her mother and make her happy and katie was going to support that . katie agrees yes although a little piece of her would have died inside . bill wants to go see brooke . liam smells his breath and says he might want to re - think that . bill says he thinks katie might have done this for him so that he will have a second chance with brooke . forrester is through with brooke . he has cast her as the woman who is not good enough for him . so bill thinks he needs a shower and lots and lots of coffee . carpe diem – seize the day . that 's what he is going to do right now . and he wants liam to remember .. right now is all he has . he reminds him that hope is still around even though she is with wyatt . she could have phoned liam with her news but she came in person . but you can get rid of old history by making new history . liam says he is not like his dad . he can not keep putting himself through the meat grinder and coming out in pieces . bill says he can not predict what brooke will do but he only knows what he can do .

craig is livid trying to track down ellis and his missing money . he even hires a pi to find him . lily and carly catch up ; they even put their heads together and come up with a good fragrance idea for monte carlo 's line . when carly bemoans the fact that she needs to focus on something other then jack comforting janet , lily has an idea . she introduces carly to her friend , rhonda , who is a genius in marketing fragrances . they all talk shop and carly is convinced this woman can help launch the fragrance line . carly calls craig and tells him about this woman and how she can help them . he needs to meet her and bring $ 500,000 . a preoccupied craig comes to meet them but explains to carly that he does n't think they should go this route anymore , but now carly thinks there is no turning back and she is determined to go forward . craig gets a call that ellis is found and takes off . he finds ellis at a movie theater and demands his money back . ellis tells him that it is gone , as craig is livid and threatens him that the money better not be gone just as carly is besides him saying the same thing . liberty and gabriel bond more , as parker is more infuriated and picks a fight with liberty when she comes home – even going as far as implying she might have slept with gabriel . he accuses gabriel of being a drug dealer because of the pills faith had and is determined to find out what he is up to . liberty asks gabriel about parker 's accusations , as he explains , which draw them in even more closer . they go to gabriel 's room to watch a movie and find parker inside going through his stuff . lily sees gabriel in the hotel , and she seems very rattled . she asks the hotel manager of his name and seems even more unnerved . she heads home and opens a locked box with a photo inside of a baby that looks like gabriel . lily calls sierra and asks her for an updated photo of gabriel ; the thing they feared the most has come true . janet prepares for her father 's funeral , as jack continues to lend his support . dusty calls and asks terri how janet is , but terri offers up that jack is helping janet through this . dusty decides he can no longer stay away . he interrupts them at the funeral and janet tells him she ca n't handle him . eddie is furious with dusty , whom he blames for his dad 's death and verbally attacks dusty , which causes dusty to be defensive , which ends with dusty punching jack by accident . janet 's aunt continues to hurl insults at janet when she finds out dusty 's connection and jack defends her . terri convinces dusty to leave . later , dusty and janet talk , as she tells him that she ca n't stay engaged to him right now , as she hands back his ring . dusty promises to wait until she can forgive him , as janet is devastated . terri leaves with dusty and jack and janet commiserate , as janet decides she has had enough of her reunion with her family and they decide to leave as well .

[ scene_break ] judge : the purpose of this hearing is to determine if ms. stewart 's case has merit , if memorial hospital , through the person of dr. christopher hughes , impeded ms. stewart 's studies and her career by engaging in sexual harassment . i find that ms. stewart has indeed been treated unfairly . dr. hughes improperly asserted his authority by interfering in ms. stewart 's studies , and ergo , her career . i would expect a doctor to have better judgment . at the same time , plaintiff was a willing participant in this relationship , and she seemed to have no trouble accepting -- favors from the defendant as long as he was giving them out . did dr. hughes intentionally sabotage ms. stewart 's studies ? there is some evidence to indicate that he did . but there is yet another fact to consider here . in spite of any help she may have received , ms. stewart never achieved the expected standard of performance . ultimately , it was ms. stewart 's own limitation that caused her to be terminated from nursing school . therefore , i must find in favor of the defendant . [ gavel bangs ] emily : it 's me . do n't put the paper to bed . i want to add something to the front page -- an editorial , 1,200 words on sexual harassment and the abuse of power . and i want a picture of chris hughes as big as you can get . casey : i 'm gon na go to `` the intruder `` with you . emily : yes . no , the judge ruled in favor of hughes , but we 're not gon na mention that , are we ? casey : ready to go ? tom : hey , hey . we 're heading over to the lakeview to grab something to celebrate . you want to come with us ? casey : sorry , but i already have plans . tom : oh , okay . uh , all right . then i 'll see you later . emily : what are you doing ? go with your family ? casey : no , i 'm gon na come with you . i know -- emily : no ! would you stop ? ! stop , okay ? ! casey : what ? emily : your family 's already ticked off at me as it is ! i do n't need -- just go with your family , please . alison : i 'm sorry , mom , if i 've disappointed you . susan : you did n't ! you did n't . alison : just -- i wanted to do something important with my life . susan : and you will . i know you will . oh , listen . let 's get out of here . let 's go eat something really decadent and delicious . come on .

[ scene_break ] judge : the purpose of this hearing is to determine if ms. stewart 's case has merit , if memorial hospital , through the person of dr. christopher hughes , impeded ms. stewart 's studies and her career by engaging in sexual harassment . i find that ms. stewart has indeed been treated unfairly . dr. hughes improperly asserted his authority by interfering in ms. stewart 's studies , and ergo , her career . i would expect a doctor to have better judgment . at the same time , plaintiff was a willing participant in this relationship , and she seemed to have no trouble accepting -- favors from the defendant as long as he was giving them out . did dr. hughes intentionally sabotage ms. stewart 's studies ? there is some evidence to indicate that he did . but there is yet another fact to consider here . in spite of any help she may have received , ms. stewart never achieved the expected standard of performance . ultimately , it was ms. stewart 's own limitation that caused her to be terminated from nursing school . therefore , i must find in favor of the defendant . [ gavel bangs ] emily : it 's me . do n't put the paper to bed . i want to add something to the front page -- an editorial , 1,200 words on sexual harassment and the abuse of power . and i want a picture of chris hughes as big as you can get . casey : i 'm gon na go to `` the intruder `` with you . emily : yes . no , the judge ruled in favor of hughes , but we 're not gon na mention that , are we ? casey : ready to go ? tom : hey , hey . we 're heading over to the lakeview to grab something to celebrate . you want to come with us ? casey : sorry , but i already have plans . tom : oh , okay . uh , all right . then i 'll see you later . emily : what are you doing ? go with your family ? casey : no , i 'm gon na come with you . i know -- emily : no ! would you stop ? ! stop , okay ? ! casey : what ? emily : your family 's already ticked off at me as it is ! i do n't need -- just go with your family , please . alison : i 'm sorry , mom , if i 've disappointed you . susan : you did n't ! you did n't . alison : just -- i wanted to do something important with my life . susan : and you will . i know you will . oh , listen . let 's get out of here . let 's go eat something really decadent and delicious . come on .

[ scene_break ] nicole : what have i done to ej ? what kind of question is that ? taylor : well , basically , it 's a rhetorical one , since we both know what you have done . you used him . you lied to him . you manipulated him . and all the while , you were simpering about how much you love his children . god , you are everything he says you are . nicole : oh , and you buy everything he says ? taylor : i know the truth , nicole . i see what you have turned into , and it just makes me hate you for what you have done . nicole : well , right back at ya , bitch .

expecting us to find a space by the end of the year ? it 's impossible . you know that , do n't you ? jack : you and your partners are resourceful people . i 'm sure you 'll be just fine . victoria : we have a lease . cane negotiated it in good faith , jack . jack : things have changed . i know you 're under pressure . i 've offered to cover your expenses to help with the move . victoria : we all know that you want revenge for what billy did . we know what this is about . jack : i 'm not your father . revenge is the last thing i want . i know all too well what comes of revenge . innocent people are caught in the middle . i think we 've had quite enough of that . the last thing i want to do is hurt you or your children . victoria : fine . if you really mean that , then you 'll reconsider what you 're doing to me and my company . jack : it 's business , victoria . jabotgo is a success . we need the space . victoria : jack , would you just hear out ? jack : the decision has been made . phyllis : thank you so much . summer : wow . phyllis : you already said that . summer : it 's -- it 's just a really , really big change . phyllis : do you like it ? summer : i love it . phyllis : i love it , too ! i love it , too . it just was way past time for a change . i do n't want to be red anymore . summer : well , you look gorgeous , and there is nothing like a new look to ring in the new year . phyllis : yes , a new look , a new attitude , a new year , and maybe , just maybe , a new job . summer : wait , are you leaving jabot ? phyllis : well , i am working on a project for fenmore 's , and it really could change the way business is being done . but nothing concrete , all right ? so just keep it to yourself . summer : okay . phyllis : all right ? i am not going to wait for jack to toss me out on my assets . summer : well , i mean , you sound almost excited . phyllis : oh , i am . i am . i just -- i 've finally got it through my thick skull that it 's time to move on , and it just -- it 's feeling good . summer : well , i 'm just really happy to see you like this . i mean , you finally realize that you 're gon na be okay . phyllis : yeah . yeah . i mean , the only reason why i was n't okay was because i made the mistake of a lifetime , but , you know what , it 's time to just dust myself off and live again and hopefully smarter this time around . summer : oh , well , do i feel you on that one . phyllis : hey ! but , hi , birthday girl ! okay ? today is about celebrating . no regrets . and you know what ? my advice ? you get a cake , you put a candle in it , and you just celebrate , and you wish big because the sky is the limit for you . summer : mm , no . no cake . not this year . phyllis : what ? summer : mnh - mnh . phyllis : not even double - chocolate with buttercream frosting ? what ? who are you ? summer : [ laughing ] i know ! it 's just been , you know , it 's been a tough year . with everything that happened with luca , i 've made a lot of mistakes , and i 'm just looking forward to the year being over . phyllis : honey , i know that it has been a rough one , but you made the decisions you needed to make at the time , and look at how much wiser you are . summer : well , somehow i just thought wiser would be a little bit better . phyllis : [ laughs ] here 's some wisdom for you . life is tough enough , so when there is something to celebrate , we celebrate . now , there is something that you have got to like to do . tell me . summer : ahh , okay . well , yeah , i mean , i 'd like to be drinking a margarita on the beach with my toes in the sand somewhere , but , you know , we 're in genoa city and it 's winter , so that 's probably not gon na happen . phyllis : would you settle for dinner with your mom ? summer : yeah . that sounds perfect . phyllis : good . come here . do n't you doubt how amazing you are , all right ? summer : hey , i really like the blonde hair . phyllis : oh , thank you . i really like you , too . summer : [ laughs ] i love you . phyllis : i love you , too . see ya . victoria : i 'm not leaving until we resolve this . jack : that ship has sailed , victoria . victoria : we just want more time . jack : it 's not going to happen . and please remember -- we did you a big favor letting you move in here to begin with . victoria : and we appreciate that , we do , but this is a critical time for our company . we 're developing a new product line and we want to build on that momentum , and moving the company unexpectedly at such a pivotal point , it 's not gon na be good for us , jack . but maybe that 's what you want . you want to undercut us ? that 's what you want to do ? jack : that was never my intention . victoria : look , we 're rivals , but good rivals create good competition , they do n't tear each other apart . [ cell phone rings ] victoria : [ sighs ] yes . cane : we have a situation . i need you to come down here now . victoria : what 's going on ? cane : i 'll fill you in when you get down here , okay ? billy : well , i do n't care what your work order says . this is our property . you do n't have permission to move it , do you ? no , you do n't . hey . you take brash , i 'll take sassy . we 'll do this the old - school way . cane : all right , guys . ignore him , okay ? we 're gon na wait for victoria to get here . nick : i really miss this , man -- hanging out with you , working together . noah : really ? looks like i 'm the only one doing any work around here . nick : you know , i checked out the books . noah : checking up on me ? nick : yeah . they look good . actually , they look amazing . probably had something to do with this -- you know , trivia tuesday , open mic night , live music . noah : yeah , i probably should have run that by you first . nick : yeah , you should run things like this by your boss , but i trust you , man . you got good instincts . noah : wow . thank you . appreciate that . nick : i know what it 's like to work with your old man and feel like , you know , your judgment 's always getting questioned . noah : yeah , he did n't make that easy , that 's for damn sure . nick : which is why he can have newman and i 'll have this place . it 's better for our relationship , plus , i do n't have to wear a suit . noah : i 'm with you there . nick : and i love what you did with these holiday drinks . i was thinking of maybe doing , like , a mistletoe mojito or a scrooge - driver . noah : no . [ laughs ] nice . nick : yeah . right ? noah : done . glad to see you have n't lost your sense of humor . nick : well , that is because of your little brother . man , i love that kid . he 's got his mom 's smile . you know , christian came back into my life , and i realized that i have got to start living again . noah : listen , i 'm really glad that everything 's working out for you , it 's coming together , and you 're happy , but ... nick : but what ? noah : it 's just how everything is between you and mom , you know ? she 's devastated . nick : [ sighs ] yeah , well , i do n't want to talk about your mom right now . noah : i know how angry you are at her and that you do n't want her anywhere near christian after what she did , and i get it , i do , but come on . it 's the holidays . nick : yeah , so , what ? i should just forgive her and put a bow around it , put it under the tree ? i just do n't think i can do that . noah : what about faith ? she 's caught in the middle of all this . nick : look , son , i love the fact that you want to look out for your little sister and that you want peace in the family , but sharon brought this on herself . noah , i 'm doing the best i can . i need you to respect that . noah : i do , you know i do . it 's just -- there has to be some way for you to work things out , because no matter what 's happened , we 're still family . you 're still my mom and my dad . nick : look , um , your mom blew up the idea of family when she tried to build a fake family with my son and dylan . she watched me grieve every day for my wife and son , and she did nothing . noah : look , i -- i still ca n't wrap my head around what she did . but it 's over . right ? i mean , you have christian . is n't there some way at all you can make peace ? nick : look , i 'm just trying to put one foot in front of the other , take it day by day . i 'm taking care of your little brother and making sure that faith feels loved and secure . noah : you and mom have been through so much , dad . i know you have it in you to forgive her . nick : i have forgiven her so many times . but she chose to lie . even after the truth came out , she and dylan fought to spend more time with my son , the son they stole from me . so , no , noah , i 'm nowhere close to forgiving sharon . victor : i wish adam were alive and could start his life over again . nikki : this is more than grief , though , is n't it ? victor : yeah . i honestly think he would have been safer in prison , you know ? he would have been alive had it not been for me . nikki : so , that 's why you have n't been going into the office . you 're just sitting behind that big desk , thinking about how things might have been with adam as your heir to newman enterprises . victor : [ sighs ] you know , i spent my whole life building a company from the ground up ... ... to maybe build a legacy for my children . and now none of them are interested in following in my footsteps . nikki : do n't say that . victor : hmm ? nikki : they admire everything that you have accomplished . they respect you for it . victor : [ sighs ] maybe they do , sweetheart . but think about it -- none of them seem interested in taking over for me . i mean , you heard my conversation with nicholas . he could n't have cared less . he 's not interested . nikki : yes , but nicholas has always been very vocal about where he wants to be , what he wants to do . he 's never wanted to work at newman . now , victoria , on the other hand , she loved working there . she looked forward to taking over for you . you kind of chased her away , and that -- that was your choice , not hers . victor : you 're right . and now there 's no one . nikki : well , that 's not true . abby loves working at newman . summer loves working at newman . maybe you need to just look at the next generation . victor : but , sweetheart , let 's be real . abby , as wonderful as she is and as capable as she is , she ca n't yet a run multi - national corporation . she 's just not ready for it . and summer , my sweet summer , she 's learning . nikki : i understand how hard this is for you . but you need to know that the children love you and they know that you love them . and they 've watched you sacrifice so much . victor : maybe too much . nikki : nicholas and victoria spent their whole life watching you just devote yourself to business , and they do n't want to follow that . victor : i know . nikki : they want to do life their own way . they want to spend more time with their family . that 's their choice . surely you can understand that . victor : yeah . victoria : they were just packing things up ? cane : yeah , files , sample books -- everything . victoria : and you just let them ? unbelievable . billy : oh , i tried to stop them , but cane stopped me . cane : hang on , that 's 'cause i am sane , okay ? they had a work order and we have an eviction notice . we ca n't do anything unless our paperwork 's legitimate . so , did you talk to jack and sort things out ? billy : oh , wow . look who 's here . jack , the man . jack : you called my assistant and said you wanted to see me . i do n't have a lot of time . victoria : yeah , you said you 'd cover the expenses , but you never mentioned that you actually called the movers . jack : my building , my call . victoria : canceling the lease is one thing , but throwing us out like this ? you claim that this is business . this is personal , jack . when did you become such a bully ? jack : i 'm a businessman . i 'm not heartless . moving can be very challenging , very trying . i 'm trying to help . cane : oh , no , you 're not . jack : christmas is just around the corner . you all have families . you have children . i thought it would be nice if you could finish your move in time to enjoy the holidays . cane : [ scoffs ] nikki : oh ! happy birthday , summer . summer : thank you . nikki : what a nice surprise ! summer : well , i just had to come on by . i found the most beautiful christmas decoration , and it 's not like you guys really need anymore , but i just could n't resist . nikki : oh , my goodness ! wow . what could this be ? ohh . everyone always needs another angel . let 's see . we 're gon na put this ... ... right there . perfect . summer : mm - hmm . [ laughs ] nikki : hey , while you 're here ... your grandfather and i brought this for you from new york for your birthday . summer : aww ! thank you , grandma . nikki : well , open it ! i want to make sure you like it . summer : okay ! [ chuckles ] oh , my gosh . this is incredible ! i saw pictures of this from a fall runway show , and i went nuts for it . nikki : i know . i made a note of it . summer : you remembered a random comment that i made ? grandma , you are amazing . i love it ! nikki : well , i 'm just doing my duty as a grandparent . summer : i love you . thank you . nikki : i love you , too , sweetie . we really want you to know how special you are , and we know you 've had a difficult year , but you 've come out stronger for it , just like a newman would . summer : well , it has n't really been an easy year for any of us . nikki : well , listen . you have everything ahead of you . the sky 's the limit . anything that you want . you 're strong and you 're smart . you can make good decisions for yourself . so you just go out there and do whatever you want . and whatever life throws at you , you 're strong enough to deal with it , because you know why ? you 're a newman . summer : [ laughs ] nikki : that 's all you need . [ laughs ] jack : well , you all have a lot of work to do , so i suggest you get busy . do you want me to call the movers to come back , or do you want to handle that yourselves ? victoria : we 'll fight this , jack . jack : the eviction is totally defensible . though , i must give you some credit for going to ashley to convince her to change my mind . cane : yeah , well , at least she has a conscience . jack : insulting me does n't change a thing . it 's been decided . accept it . you need to find a new location because this space has to be cleared out by the time you leave for home new year 's eve . victoria : [ sighs ] nick : [ sighs ] we 're not open yet . wow . look at you . phyllis : apparently , i 'll have more fun now . nick : something tells me you could use some fun . anything other than the hair color changing ? phyllis : well , i 'm still living at our daughter 's place , and i 'm just hoping that the new year brings in all kinds of changes . nick : well , good for you . look at us , both getting our lives back on track . phyllis : mm ! but our daughter needs our help . nick : what 's wrong with summer ? phyllis : she 's just -- she 's not in a good place . would you believe she wants to ignore her birthday ? she does n't want any plans , she does n't want any cake . nick : what ? phyllis : yeah . nick : no double - chocolate cake with buttercream frosting ? that is so wrong . phyllis : exactly . you in ? nick : i am way ahead of you . phyllis : yes ! summer : [ gasps ] oh ! it 's perfect ! victor : well , whoa ! you look beautiful ! summer : thank you , grandpa . victor : you 're welcome . summer : i love it ! victor : seeing your smile is thanks enough . happy birthday , okay ? summer : thank you . nikki : summer and i were just chatting about what she has in store for next year . victor : oh , yeah ? summer : yes , yes , i am going to work very hard at newman , and i 'm going to make sure that i 'm at the top of all my business classes . victor : very , very hard . summer : yes . victor : yeah . you 're already on top of everything , are n't you ? you 're a smart girl . summer : [ laughs ] victor : so . summer : um , i have a lot of christmas shopping to do , and i have n't even started my wrapping yet . nikki : oh , well , honey , go ! go have fun ! it 's fine . victor : you better get going . nikki : i love you . summer : thank you . i love you . victor : okay , sweetheart . i love you . summer : thank you . thank you , guys . victor : okay . nikki : have fun , birthday girl ! victor : that coat looks fantastic ! all grown up . nikki : mm - hmm . victor : can you imagine that phyllis is her mother ? nikki : now , victor , it 's christmas . victor : mm . nikki : goodwill toward all . victor : [ chuckles ] even towards phyllis ? nikki : [ laughs ] you are incorrigible , you know that ? victor : i am . [ cell phone chimes ] nikki : oh ! victor : what ? nikki : it 's a text from nicholas . he and phyllis are having a surprise birthday party for summer , and we are invited . victor : huh . nikki : but only if you promise me you 'll be on your best behavior . victor : well , that , i can not promise , but i will try my hardest . nikki : hmm . cane : if anything is available -- just anything . right , right . the holidays . i forgot . all right , thank you . victoria : that sounds great . when ? huh , oh , well , yeah , no , it 's a smaller space than we 'd hope for , but we can make that work . so , what are the terms of the lease ? um , we 're just gon na keep looking around . thank you very much , though . damn it . anything ? billy : no , we 're on a wait list for two places , but they 're not available till february . i mean , what are we supposed to do -- we ca n't just pop up on the street like a lemonade stand . we need real space for the lab , for a warehouse , for offices . victoria : okay , great . fine . so we take control of the situation -- we have what it takes to fix this . billy : no , we 're not gon na do that , we already went over this . victoria : newman tower . it 's just temporary , billy . billy : no way in hell . victoria : why , because you hate my father ? billy : no , because we can do better . victoria : no , we ca n't , billy ! why are you arguing with me on this ? billy : i 'm not arguing with you , i 'm trying to fight for you , for our company ! i think , out of everybody , you should understand that ! nick : oh ! dude ! i was n't even looking , man . thank god we did that beach blanket bingo night . noah : very tasteful . nick : did you text summer ? noah : i did , yeah . my car 's broken down , and marisa 's out of town , and she needs to give me a ride . nick : ah ! noah : at least she can do for a brother because she never makes time for me . nick : nice . guilt . it 's a good touch . noah : i thought so . nick : well , let 's hope the guests arrive before the birthday girl . nikki : well , hello ! nick : oh , there we go ! nikki : wow . nick : what 's up , man ? nikki : hey , look who 's here ! victor : look at this ! nikki : it 's daddy ! nick : sorry for the last - minute notice . nikki : oh , it 's no problem . we 're thrilled to be here . victor : anything for summer . look at this . my goodness . what a nice job you did . nick : well , i got this guy a party hat . he 's probably gon na starting gnawing on it before he actually wears it , so let 's get some pictures of that before it happens . nikki : yeah . okay , good . let 's do it . nick : come on , dude . victor : hi , noah . noah : grandpa . victor : got a minute ? noah : uh , yeah , summer 's gon na be here any minute . i should probably finish getting things ready here . victor : i know you and i have not been seeing eye to eye . noah : well , you tried to throw me in jail . victor : a big mistake . and i apologize . i just thought that for tonight 's party , we could put all those differences behind us . noah : yeah , okay , but it 's not gon na change the problems that we have . victor : well . so , i understand you 've been doing a wonderful job running this place in your dad 's absence ? that 's so nice of you to support him like that . noah : i 'm always gon na have dad 's back . and he 's always gon na have mine . victor : i know you 're angry with me , son . and i understand that . but i want you to know , as your granddad , i love you and i believe in you . should you ever want to come back to newman , doors are wide open , all right ? noah : look , grandpa , some guys are meant for the suits and the executive suites , and some ... are n't . victor : just think about it . [ cell phone rings ] victor : just excuse for me for a moment . i need to take this . nick : yeah , that -- oh ! nikki : uh - oh . nick : oh , man , it fell ! noah : oh , no ! nikki : good thing i got a picture . nick : yeah . nikki : let me get -- let me get another one now . nick : yeah , we 're gon na have to get a different hat , too . nikki : without a hat ! that 's cute . that 's cute . nick : all right . here we go . nikki : ready ? here we go . nick : smile ! nikki : christian ! nick : say `` happy birthday ! `` nikki : adorable . it 's perfect . thank you , baby ! abby : aww ! how cure are you ! look at that little party animal . hi ! nick : yeah , he takes after his dad . abby : [ laughs ] nick : you want to give your aunt some sugar ? be careful . it 's probably gon na be drool . abby : aww , that 's okay . hey , where 's faith ? it 's not like her to miss a party . nick : oh , she had her final rehearsal for the big christmas recital . nikki : your father and i are so looking forward to that , but let me tell you something . you better bring her home a big piece of cake , or you 're never gon na hear the end of it ! nick : well , we 're gon na actually have to get the cake to do that . phyllis : i got the cake . i got the cake . nick : oh , there we go . phyllis : traffic , a line at the bakery , but we 've got cake . abby : [ laughs ] nikki : your hair ... ... is very becoming . phyllis : thank you . summer : really , noah ? i ca n't believe your car broke down . noah : yeah , well ... all : surprise ! nick : happy birthday , summer ! summer : you guys did not have to do this . phyllis : yes , we did . abby : happy birthday . phyllis : you need a proper birthday party , and i 'm sure noah would make you a wonderful margarita like you were craving . nick : we tried to bring the beach to you . phyllis : yes . summer : well , it looks just like it .

victor : everything is just fine , my baby . nikki : well , maybe the best way to keep things fine is to stay as far away from phyllis as possible . victor : mm . i agree . summer : well , here is a birthday wish -- everyone in my family just gets along . abby : family harmony . you know , that 's what i was gon na get you for your birthday , but it turns out it does n't exist . summer : oh . abby : i 'm sorry . happy birthday ? summer : sure , why not ? noah , these are really good , by the way . abby : mm - hmm . noah : i get pretty big tips for these , right ? summer : so , you 're -- you 're really happy working here . you 're not just doing this for dad ? noah : yeah . i love it . you know , dad values my opinion , he trusts me to make decisions . no games . just mutual respect . let me tell you , it 's the only family business that i want to be a part of . abby : i know it did n't work out for you at newman , but there 's no place i 'd rather be . it 's exciting and there 's pride in what we do , working together . summer : yeah , no , i feel the exact same way . i mean , it 's kind of cool to get to be a part of something so big , you know ? noah : you two want to jump in the shark tank , i wish you the best , but just wait until grandpa tries to throw one of your butts in jail or pays to have somebody you love go away . abby : i did that all by myself . noah : right . i 'm sorry about you and stitch . nick : hey , summer , can i talk to you for a second ? summer : yeah . sure . nick : how about you take your little brother ? noah : come here , little buddy . oh ! hey , pal ! abby : hey ! so , your hands are full , so i 'm gon na help myself . noah : go for it . summer : okay , what 's going on ? phyllis : what do you think ? summer : i think that they 're all beautiful . and warm . and not here . phyllis : ... but you can be there . summer : what do you mean ? nick : this is your present from us . pick any place in the world , and we 're gon na send you there . summer : wait , this is for real ? are you serious ? phyllis : yes , you pick a friend or two , you pick a beach , pack a bathing suit , and off you go . summer : [ laughs ] oh , my god ! seriously ? you guys are amazing ! really ? oh , my god ! thank you ! nick : of course . summer : thank you . this is the best . phyllis : you are the best . and i am gon na get some candles in the cake . summer : okay . nick : now , before you blow out those candles , i just want you to know , you know , how proud i am of you . i know this year has been challenging . summer : thanks . yeah , i mean , this -- this year kind of sucked . nick : yeah , but you handled it with strength and heart . in fact , your giant heart never ceases to amaze me . summer : well , i mean , i do have very , very good genes . nick : you actually do . summer : [ chuckles ] okay , well , i 'm gon na tell noah about my awesome present . nick : okay , that 's fine , but do n't tell him that he should be taking any days off , okay ? summer : we 'll see . victor : my boy . what a wonderful party for summer . nikki : such a good idea . nick : ah , well , thanks for coming . and , uh , thanks for keeping the peace , too . getting along with phyllis . you know , when we 're all together like this and celebrating , it really does n't get any better than this . noah : what 's that ? what 's that ? summer : hi ! what are you looking at ? noah : he loves the couch ! summer : hi ! billy : instead of letting jack run over us and doing whatever he wants , we got to push back or do something . victoria : we are not dragging this company into the mud because you and your brother ca n't get along . billy : he does n't have a right to go after brash & sassy ! the way he 's doing . victoria : well , he is , and he wants blood . billy : no , he 's not gon na do that , okay ? we can fix this , okay ? we can fix this together . we just got to take a stand . we 'll go to court and we 'll tie it up there . we have rights as a tenant ! victoria : right , okay . and as we 're fighting this losing battle in court ... then what ? what about brash & sassy ! , our new product line , our new app ? we need to focus on our company , not you sticking it to your brother . billy : no , that 's not what this is about , okay ? this is about the company . i know how much it means to you . we ca n't let jack just grind us under his heel like he is doing , okay ? i can fix this . do you trust me ? cane : not a chance in hell . billy : what is that supposed to mean , cane ? cane : oh , you know what it means ? it means i do n't trust you can handle this 'cause you 're so emotionally involved in this . you 're out there trying to start fights with the movers ... billy : well , maybe a little emotion is good instead of running to mommy every time there 's a problem . cane : you are a complete idiot . she is the boss ! billy : well , we can handle this without her interference . victoria : oh , stop it , both of you . cane : she owns the company , billy . billy : you 're going against my judgment now , cane ? cane : you do n't have any judgment to go against . billy : look , this is good . why do n't you use this to fight jack instead of me ? cane : basically , you want to ruin the company 's future because you 're mad at your big brother . is that what this is ?

<s>[INST] nick : [ sighs ] trivia tuesday . noah : dad ? nick : hey . noah : what are you doing here ? nick : well , i do own the place . [ chuckles ] i figured i 'd , uh , you know , get back after it . start a normal life again , whatever that is . noah : you sure you 're ready for that ? nick : now seems like as good a time as any , you know ? it 's new year 's . it 's all about fresh starts and whatnot . noah : yeah . well , we 're with you , 110 % . whatever you need . nick : well , how lucky am i . you know , i just have n't told you this yet , but i really appreciate the way you 've stepped up around here so i could spend time with christian . noah : i 'm just doing my job . no big deal . nick : no , it 's a very big deal . i 'm proud of you , son . sons needs to hear that from their fathers once in a while . noah : well , you know what would make me proud ? nick : what ? noah : if you took some of these bottles of whiskey and helped me restock the bar . nick : yeah , that 's not gon na happen . i 'm on my break . noah : this is n't gon na work . nick : let 's go . pick it up . victor : whew ! is christian here ? nikki : oh , yeah , he 's upstairs sleeping like a little angel . victor : i love that . you know , maybe later on , i 'll take him to the stables . maybe the pond . he 'd like that , i think . nikki : well , yeah , he 'd love that , but are n't you going to the office ? victor : [ exhales sharply ] do n't you remember me talking about pulling back ? nikki : yes , i do , but i did n't think i could believe it . victor : you did n't think i 'd manage that ? nikki : actually ... i think that you have changed a lot recently . especially after adam 's death . i mean , your way of dealing with loss has always been to throw yourself into work . and now it 's different somehow . you have changed . phyllis : what do you think ? summer : wow . [ laughs ] billy : hey . what is this ? cane : these are the guys here to help us move . billy : no , we 're gon na come up with a solution . we do n't need help moving , cane . cane : yeah , well , i did n't call them . your brother did . jack : come in . i had a feeling i might be seeing you . victoria : i want answers , jack , face to face . jack : it wo n't change anything . victoria : this is ridiculous . throwing out brash & sassy ! ? expecting us to find a space by the end of the year ? it 's impossible . you know that , do n't you ? jack : you and your partners are resourceful people . i 'm sure you 'll be just fine . victoria : we have a lease . cane negotiated it in good faith , jack . jack : things have changed . i know you 're under pressure . i 've offered to cover your expenses to help with the move . victoria : we all know that you want revenge for what billy did . we know what this is about . jack : i 'm not your father . revenge is the last thing i want . i know all too well what comes of revenge . innocent people are caught in the middle . i think we 've had quite enough of that . the last thing i want to do is hurt you or your children . victoria : fine . if you really mean that , then you 'll reconsider what you 're doing to me and my company . jack : it 's business , victoria . jabotgo is a success . we need the space . victoria : jack , would you just hear out ? jack : the decision has been made . phyllis : thank you so much . summer : wow . phyllis : you already said that . summer : it 's -- it 's just a really , really big change . phyllis : do you like it ? summer : i love it . phyllis : i love it , too ! i love it , too . it just was way past time for a change . i do n't want to be red anymore . summer : well , you look gorgeous , and there is nothing like a new look to ring in the new year . phyllis : yes , a new look , a new attitude , a new year , and maybe , just maybe , a new job . summer : wait , are you leaving jabot ? phyllis : well , i am working on a project for fenmore 's , and it really could change the way business is being done . but nothing concrete , all right ? so just keep it to yourself . summer : okay . phyllis : all right ? i am not going to wait for jack to toss me out on my assets . summer : well , i mean , you sound almost excited . phyllis : oh , i am . i am . i just -- i 've finally got it through my thick skull that it 's time to move on , and it just -- it 's feeling good . summer : well , i 'm just really happy to see you like this . i mean , you finally realize that you 're gon na be okay . phyllis : yeah . yeah . i mean , the only reason why i was n't okay was because i made the mistake of a lifetime , but , you know what , it 's time to just dust myself off and live again and hopefully smarter this time around . summer : oh , well , do i feel you on that one . phyllis : hey ! but , hi , birthday girl ! okay ? today is about celebrating . no regrets . and you know what ? my advice ? you get a cake , you put a candle in it , and you just celebrate , and you wish big because the sky is the limit for you . summer : mm , no . no cake . not this year . phyllis : what ? summer : mnh - mnh . phyllis : not even double - chocolate with buttercream frosting ? what ? who are you ? summer : [ laughing ] i know ! it 's just been , you know , it 's been a tough year . with everything that happened with luca , i 've made a lot of mistakes , and i 'm just looking forward to the year being over . phyllis : honey , i know that it has been a rough one , but you made the decisions you needed to make at the time , and look at how much wiser you are . summer : well , somehow i just thought wiser would be a little bit better . phyllis : [ laughs ] here 's some wisdom for you . life is tough enough , so when there is something to celebrate , we celebrate . now , there is something that you have got to like to do . tell me . summer : ahh , okay . well , yeah , i mean , i 'd like to be drinking a margarita on the beach with my toes in the sand somewhere , but , you know , we 're in genoa city and it 's winter , so that 's probably not gon na happen . phyllis : would you settle for dinner with your mom ? summer : yeah . that sounds perfect . phyllis : good . come here . do n't you doubt how amazing you are , all right ? summer : hey , i really like the blonde hair . phyllis : oh , thank you . i really like you , too . summer : [ laughs ] i love you . phyllis : i love you , too . see ya . victoria : i 'm not leaving until we resolve this . jack : that ship has sailed , victoria . victoria : we just want more time . jack : it 's not going to happen . and please remember -- we did you a big favor letting you move in here to begin with . victoria : and we appreciate that , we do , but this is a critical time for our company . we 're developing a new product line and we want to build on that momentum , and moving the company unexpectedly at such a pivotal point , it 's not gon na be good for us , jack . but maybe that 's what you want . you want to undercut us ? that 's what you want to do ? jack : that was never my intention . victoria : look , we 're rivals , but good rivals create good competition , they do n't tear each other apart . [ cell phone rings ] victoria : [ sighs ] yes . cane : we have a situation . i need you to come down here now . victoria : what 's going on ? cane : i 'll fill you in when you get down here , okay ? billy : well , i do n't care what your work order says . this is our property . you do n't have permission to move it , do you ? no , you do n't . hey . you take brash , i 'll take sassy . we 'll do this the old - school way . cane : all right , guys . ignore him , okay ? we 're gon na wait for victoria to get here . nick : i really miss this , man -- hanging out with you , working together . noah : really ? looks like i 'm the only one doing any work around here . nick : you know , i checked out the books . noah : checking up on me ? nick : yeah . they look good . actually , they look amazing . probably had something to do with this -- you know , trivia tuesday , open mic night , live music . noah : yeah , i probably should have run that by you first . nick : yeah , you should run things like this by your boss , but i trust you , man . you got good instincts . noah : wow . thank you . appreciate that . nick : i know what it 's like to work with your old man and feel like , you know , your judgment 's always getting questioned . noah : yeah , he did n't make that easy , that 's for damn sure . nick : which is why he can have newman and i 'll have this place . it 's better for our relationship , plus , i do n't have to wear a suit . noah : i 'm with you there . nick : and i love what you did with these holiday drinks . i was thinking of maybe doing , like , a mistletoe mojito or a scrooge - driver . noah : no . [ laughs ] nice . nick : yeah . right ? noah : done . glad to see you have n't lost your sense of humor . nick : well , that is because of your little brother . man , i love that kid . he 's got his mom 's smile . you know , christian came back into my life , and i realized that i have got to start living again . noah : listen , i 'm really glad that everything 's working out for you , it 's coming together , and you 're happy , but ... nick : but what ? noah : it 's just how everything is between you and mom , you know ? she 's devastated . nick : [ sighs ] yeah , well , i do n't want to talk about your mom right now . noah : i know how angry you are at her and that you do n't want her anywhere near christian after what she did , and i get it , i do , but come on . it 's the holidays . nick : yeah , so , what ? i should just forgive her and put a bow around it , put it under the tree ? i just do n't think i can do that . noah : what about faith ? she 's caught in the middle of all this . nick : look , son , i love the fact that you want to look out for your little sister and that you want peace in the family , but sharon brought this on herself . noah , i 'm doing the best i can . i need you to respect that . noah : i do , you know i do . it 's just -- there has to be some way for you to work things out , because no matter what 's happened , we 're still family . you 're still my mom and my dad . nick : look , um , your mom blew up the idea of family when she tried to build a fake family with my son and dylan . she watched me grieve every day for my wife and son , and she did nothing . noah : look , i -- i still ca n't wrap my head around what she did . but it 's over . right ? i mean , you have christian . is n't there some way at all you can make peace ? nick : look , i 'm just trying to put one foot in front of the other , take it day by day . i 'm taking care of your little brother and making sure that faith feels loved and secure . noah : you and mom have been through so much , dad . i know you have it in you to forgive her . nick : i have forgiven her so many times . but she chose to lie . even after the truth came out , she and dylan fought to spend more time with my son , the son they stole from me . so , no , noah , i 'm nowhere close to forgiving sharon . victor : i wish adam were alive and could start his life over again . nikki : this is more than grief , though , is n't it ? victor : yeah . i honestly think he would have been safer in prison , you know ? he would have been alive had it not been for me . nikki : so , that 's why you have n't been going into the office . you 're just sitting behind that big desk , thinking about how things might have been with adam as your heir to newman enterprises . victor : [ sighs ] you know , i spent my whole life building a company from the ground up ... ... to maybe build a legacy for my children . and now none of them are interested in following in my footsteps . nikki : do n't say that . victor : hmm ? nikki : they admire everything that you have accomplished . they respect you for it . victor : [ sighs ] maybe they do , sweetheart . but think about it -- none of them seem interested in taking over for me . i mean , you heard my conversation with nicholas . he could n't have cared less . he 's not interested . nikki : yes , but nicholas has always been very vocal about where he wants to be , what he wants to do . he 's never wanted to work at newman . now , victoria , on the other hand , she loved working there . she looked forward to taking over for you . you kind of chased her away , and that -- that was your choice , not hers . victor : you 're right . and now there 's no one . nikki : well , that 's not true . abby loves working at newman . summer loves working at newman . maybe you need to just look at the next generation . victor : but , sweetheart , let 's be real . abby , as wonderful as she is and as capable as she is , she ca n't yet a run multi - national corporation . she 's just not ready for it . and summer , my sweet summer , she 's learning . nikki : i understand how hard this is for you . but you need to know that the children love you and they know that you love them . and they 've watched you sacrifice so much . victor : maybe too much . nikki : nicholas and victoria spent their whole life watching you just devote yourself to business , and they do n't want to follow that . victor : i know . nikki : they want to do life their own way . they want to spend more time with their family . that 's their choice . surely you can understand that . victor : yeah . victoria : they were just packing things up ? cane : yeah , files , sample books -- everything . victoria : and you just let them ? unbelievable . billy : oh , i tried to stop them , but cane stopped me . cane : hang on , that 's 'cause i am sane , okay ? they had a work order and we have an eviction notice . we ca n't do anything unless our paperwork 's legitimate . so , did you talk to jack and sort things out ? billy : oh , wow . look who 's here . jack , the man . jack : you called my assistant and said you wanted to see me . i do n't have a lot of time . victoria : yeah , you said you 'd cover the expenses , but you never mentioned that you actually called the movers . jack : my building , my call . victoria : canceling the lease is one thing , but throwing us out like this ? you claim that this is business . this is personal , jack . when did you become such a bully ? jack : i 'm a businessman . i 'm not heartless . moving can be very challenging , very trying . i 'm trying to help . cane : oh , no , you 're not . jack : christmas is just around the corner . you all have families . you have children . i thought it would be nice if you could finish your move in time to enjoy the holidays . cane : [ scoffs ] nikki : oh ! happy birthday , summer . summer : thank you . nikki : what a nice surprise ! summer : well , i just had to come on by . i found the most beautiful christmas decoration , and it 's not like you guys really need anymore , but i just could n't resist . nikki : oh , my goodness ! wow . what could this be ? ohh . everyone always needs another angel . let 's see . we 're gon na put this ... ... right there . perfect . summer : mm - hmm . [ laughs ] nikki : hey , while you 're here ... your grandfather and i brought this for you from new york for your birthday . summer : aww ! thank you , grandma . nikki : well , open it ! i want to make sure you like it . summer : okay ! [ chuckles ] oh , my gosh . this is incredible ! i saw pictures of this from a fall runway show , and i went nuts for it . nikki : i know . i made a note of it . summer : you remembered a random comment that i made ? grandma , you are amazing . i love it ! nikki : well , i 'm just doing my duty as a grandparent . summer : i love you . thank you . nikki : i love you , too , sweetie . we really want you to know how special you are , and we know you 've had a difficult year , but you 've come out stronger for it , just like a newman would . summer : well , it has n't really been an easy year for any of us . nikki : well , listen . you have everything ahead of you . the sky 's the limit . anything that you want . you 're strong and you 're smart . you can make good decisions for yourself . so you just go out there and do whatever you want . and whatever life throws at you , you 're strong enough to deal with it , because you know why ? you 're a newman . summer : [ laughs ] nikki : that 's all you need . [ laughs ] jack : well , you all have a lot of work to do , so i suggest you get busy . do you want me to call the movers to come back , or do you want to handle that yourselves ? victoria : we 'll fight this , jack . jack : the eviction is totally defensible . though , i must give you some credit for going to ashley to convince her to change my mind . cane : yeah , well , at least she has a conscience . jack : insulting me does n't change a thing . it 's been decided . accept it . you need to find a new location because this space has to be cleared out by the time you leave for home new year 's eve . victoria : [ sighs ] nick : [ sighs ] we 're not open yet . wow . look at you . phyllis : apparently , i 'll have more fun now . nick : something tells me you could use some fun . anything other than the hair color changing ? phyllis : well , i 'm still living at our daughter 's place , and i 'm just hoping that the new year brings in all kinds of changes . nick : well , good for you . look at us , both getting our lives back on track . phyllis : mm ! but our daughter needs our help . nick : what 's wrong with summer ? phyllis : she 's just -- she 's not in a good place . would you believe she wants to ignore her birthday ? she does n't want any plans , she does n't want any cake . nick : what ? phyllis : yeah . nick : no double - chocolate cake with buttercream frosting ? that is so wrong . phyllis : exactly . you in ? nick : i am way ahead of you . phyllis : yes ! summer : [ gasps ] oh ! it 's perfect ! victor : well , whoa ! you look beautiful ! summer : thank you , grandpa . victor : you 're welcome . summer : i love it ! victor : seeing your smile is thanks enough . happy birthday , okay ? summer : thank you . nikki : summer and i were just chatting about what she has in store for next year . victor : oh , yeah ? summer : yes , yes , i am going to work very hard at newman , and i 'm going to make sure that i 'm at the top of all my business classes . victor : very , very hard . summer : yes . victor : yeah . you 're already on top of everything , are n't you ? you 're a smart girl . summer : [ laughs ] victor : so . summer : um , i have a lot of christmas shopping to do , and i have n't even started my wrapping yet . nikki : oh , well , honey , go ! go have fun ! it 's fine . victor : you better get going . nikki : i love you . summer : thank you . i love you . victor : okay , sweetheart . i love you . summer : thank you . thank you , guys . victor : okay . nikki : have fun , birthday girl ! victor : that coat looks fantastic ! all grown up . nikki : mm - hmm . victor : can you imagine that phyllis is her mother ? nikki : now , victor , it 's christmas . victor : mm . nikki : goodwill toward all . victor : [ chuckles ] even towards phyllis ? nikki : [ laughs ] you are incorrigible , you know that ? victor : i am .

noah : you two want to jump in the shark tank , i wish you the best , but just wait until grandpa tries to throw one of your butts in jail or pays to have somebody you love go away . abby : i did that all by myself . noah : right . i 'm sorry about you and stitch . nick : hey , summer , can i talk to you for a second ?

's . babe : my son is alive . i just want my son back in my arms , and i want bess back in bianca 's . i ca n't sit here and lie to her face any longer . david : then you better find a way not to see her face . because until we get proof positive that ace buchanan is your son -- or not -- we do n't breathe a word of this to anyone , especially not bianca .

[ scene_break ] kendall : they say people have auras . well , yours is rage . it 's red - hot . ethan : why do you care ? why are you still here ? kendall : because i -- i get you . i know you , ethan . anger grinds up your insides . it makes it so that you ca n't watch tv , you ca n't read a book , you ca n't think about anything other than your own hate . i know . it 's like that for me , too . i used to be a person a long time ago . but by the end of the fundraiser , revenge was all that was left of me . you saw me that night at the casino playing that murder game . i walked into the ocean because if i did n't have revenge , i did n't have anything . and you saved me , ethan . you pulled me out of the waves . so let me do the same for you . ethan : look around , kendall . no ocean . not even a decent trickle from a tap sometimes . kendall : this is not about the water . ethan : no . there are dozens of ways to self - destruct , thousands if you get creative . you think that 's where i 'm going or where i 've been ? kendall : you tell me . i just want to know where your head is . are you ok ? ethan : considering that pine valley is the most hostile town i think you could ever come to -- oh , and the fact that being a cambias means either inhuman behavior or untimely death -- i am excellent . kendall : oh , the clever brit version of saying `` it sucks . `` ethan : what do you expect ? i came here to prove that i 'm a cambias . now that i 'm here , i do n't even know what i was thinking about , you know ? i could leave , remain a ramsey . maybe i could just live in peace . kendall : you 're right , you could run . ethan : run ? i wish i had that luxury . run where ? to what , huh ? where am i going to find my peace ? my birthright will keep me awake at night . can i escape what i need ? no . kendall : is this a rhetorical question ? because you know my answer . ethan : i 'm not going to be pushed out of pine valley by these people . what kind of man would that make me ? what kind of son ? would i dishonor my mother ? will i not be what they want me to be , what i need ? what i can stand , what i deserve ? i just do n't know how to fix it all together ! kendall : see , there it is . there it is . there 's that pain i was talking about . ethan : you know me so well , you give me some answers . kendall : all right , fine . you could leave town and you could lose hope , or you can stay and lose everything . ethan : so leave , walk away ? kendall : no . no , no , no . get ready and be careful . cover your tracks and do n't let anyone else break into your room and let them make you spill your story . ethan : i think i 've said enough already . kendall : no . not to me . to anyone else , yeah , but i 'm like you . i 'm an outsider . i 'm a murder suspect . i know what it 's like . i know the reality . it 's over for me now . i do n't have anything left . i do n't want it to be over for you .

[ scene_break ] natalie : you 're going to let me talk to jared ? tess : whew , you really are stupid , natalie . natalie : but you just said -- tess : natalie , the whole point is to keep you two apart , to rip you from each other 's arms like you did nash and me . natalie : nash would n't want you -- tess : you do n't know a thing about nash , so you just shut up . jessica did n't know him either . he loved me . he fell in love with me . he was my soul mate . and you took him away from me . now i 'm going to make you suffer the way i 'm suffering . natalie : you do n't think that i already am , being locked down here ? tess : one down , one to go . natalie : what are you going to do to jared ? tess : are n't you listening ? it 's what you 're going to do to jared .

[ scene_break ] natalie : you 're going to let me talk to jared ? tess : whew , you really are stupid , natalie . natalie : but you just said -- tess : natalie , the whole point is to keep you two apart , to rip you from each other 's arms like you did nash and me . natalie : nash would n't want you -- tess : you do n't know a thing about nash , so you just shut up . jessica did n't know him either . he loved me . he fell in love with me . he was my soul mate . and you took him away from me . now i 'm going to make you suffer the way i 'm suffering . natalie : you do n't think that i already am , being locked down here ? tess : one down , one to go . natalie : what are you going to do to jared ? tess : are n't you listening ? it 's what you 're going to do to jared .

brooke insists to liam that her daughter is committed to him and thinks he is going to marry her . now brooke needs to know if he is . it 's unheard of that he would tear up the annulment papers when he and hope have been wanting that for so long . she reminds him how upset hope is going to be when she finds out . she feels they both made mistakes , but they are past that now and it should be bringing them together and not pulling them apart . rick still has amber 's lipstick on his lips when hope sees him and as he wipes it off , he bemoans the fact that caroline keeps brushing him off when he asks her out . he 'd like to know why , but she shuts him down any time he gets close . hope offers to help give caroline the third degree for him . caroline confides in amber that she really likes rick , but she just wishes he could tell her the truth about his cross - dressing . she realizes amber thinks it is okay . amber tells her that thomas is a better catch for caroline anyway .

[ scene_break ] brooke : the lesson to be learned is that relationships have challenges , and it 's how you deal with those challenges that 's what strengthens the bond . liam : life has challenges . uh , brooke , you raised an incredible daughter , and i love her , and i want nothing for her but happiness and safety and security , but i ca n't give her that . nobody can . i mean , being chased by the press i - is nasty , but what happens in the future when she has children and she has to deal with real stress ? is she gon na turn to pills then ? brooke : no . no . she 's done with that . look , i know that she 's faltered before , but who has n't ? i think you still have to make the same mistake over and over again until you get it right , and i really believe that hope is getting it right . liam : yeah . i mean , she is -- there 's nobody in the world like her . hope is one in a million . brooke : and yet you had the chance to give her something that you both wanted for so long and ... liam : ( sighs ) brooke : you could n't even do that . i mean , does steffy have that much of a hold on you ? liam : look , hope sacrificed what she believed in for me , but so did steffy when she signed those papers . now i know better now , okay ? i know that it was wrong for me to expect hope to make that kind of sacrifice , which is why i did n't take the papers from steffy . ( sighs ) look , your daughter did the right thing for her when she moved out . i so support that . i want a woman who can take care of herself , who can stand up for herself . i want to marry that woman . i want children with that woman , well - adjusted children who share the same strong values as their parents . i do n't care about money or -- or -- or status or any of that . i just want a happy , healthy family , free of -- of drama and destruction ... and drugs . brooke : hope is not addicted to drugs . liam : i 'm not -- i know . i 'm not saying that . i 'm just saying i do n't want to have to question it like i did in aspen when she was acting so weird . i mean , `` did she take another pill ? is that why she 's acting this way ? is she keeping things from me again ? `` these are questions i do n't want to have to ask myself about the woman i love . brooke : she does n't want to have to ask herself questions about you , either . liam : ( sighs ) brooke : look , it all comes down to commitment , and hope believes that you are committed to her and so do i. i just want to hear you say it .

bo has returned to the present in llanview but is worried that rex and gigi are still stuck in 1968 at asa 's ranch . and there 's a reason for that which neither of them is aware of . rex is still living the life of young bo and ready to go off to war . gigi knows she can not let that happen to him but does not know what to do . back in llanview , brody somehow knows that gigi is gone and fears she may not come back . and he knows she has some sort of `` secret `` involving dna . bo is still processing the significance of his dream and how all of the modern - day people who played the characters in 1968 were similar to them . but he believes that playing asa really motivated him to smarten up and not follow in his father 's footsteps . tess runs into todd at the clinic . she knows that he has secrets that could get him in trouble . he knows that she is tess and only playing jessica .
<s>[INST] bo : did you hear from balsom yet ? well , then put out bulletins , all right ? check every hospital and hotel in the area . then plaster his picture all over the place , everywhere from el paso to brownsville . just keep looking until you find him and his friend gigi .

[ scene_break ] gigi : i can still hear delphina . oh , it 'll be a snap . just hold the phone , touch the fence , get electrocuted , go through the portal , grab rex , come back to 2008 , go home , unpack . if i had known that i would get stuck here -- rex : is brody taking care of shane ? gigi : yeah . rex : he a good dad ? [ scene_break ] brody : should i line up a couple shots ? layla : at lunch ? i do n't think so . brody : feeling better ? layla : i 'm working on it . but it 's hard when a man you believed in plays you for a fool . i do n't sleep very well . brody : coffee ? layla : please . brody : coffee it is . hope you 're not still itching for a fight with me . layla : well , not at the moment , but i do have a question for you . brody : look , if it 's about shane , just do n't butt in where you do n't belong . layla : i 'm not here to get in your face about you pretending to be shane 's father , but i am here to butt in . [ scene_break ] judge runyon : so you 're still after that warrant . john : you told me you wanted probable cause . i have it . judge runyon : let 's hear it . john : witness says the woman who was staying with ramsey at the time of his murder , who may have witnessed it , is now living with manning . [ scene_break ] tess : [ as jessica ] uncle todd , what are you doing here ? todd : are you okay ? tess : uh , yeah . i 'm just a little on edge these days , you know . i -- look , forgive me . i was pregnant before , and my husband came to all my doctor 's appointments with me , and he just passed away recently . nurse : oh , i 'm so sorry . tess : no , this happens every time i come , and it 's so embarrassing . nurse : i 'll go talk to the doctor . tess : thank you . god , i hate being like this . todd : yeah , you really went off on her , did n't you ? tess : i -- i know . i just have n't been myself these days . todd : no , you really have n't . [ scene_break ] starr : i miss not talking everything over with you . cole : mrs. mcbain said that i could be part of her baby 's life . starr : she did ? cole : the first thing i thought was , i needed to talk to you about it . starr : okay , well , then let 's talk about it . cole : and for the first three seconds , i was , like , you know , this is great . then it hit me . how am i supposed to just play with my kid , and then just give him back ? it 's not possible . starr : oh , i get it . i mean , i said pretty much the same thing . cole : i think about calling you all the time , just to hear your voice . starr : then why do n't you ? cole : because it always hits me that i 'll never , ever forgive you for doing this , for giving our kid away . [ scene_break ] rex : that thing work ? delphina : [ as prof. fina ] well , in theory , yes , which is to say it 's , uh , in the experimental stages . rex : this is gigi . she 's from 2008 . prof. fina : mm - hmm . she looks like -- well , that other woman . gigi : and you 're a ringer for that woman -- person that helped me get here . rex : what 's the verdict , fina ? can you get us back to 2008 before i end up in the army ?

[ scene_break ] ric : well , i was hoping for a more positive endorsement , but if we 're going to call each other names -- claudia : hey , i was n't even finished . i think you 're an opportunist , and a traitor . and i think you 'd sell you own family to the highest bidder . ric : really ? this from the girl who would sell her father out to solidify her marriage ? claudia : you do n't have a loyal bone in your body , ric . ric : claudia , i came here with very good intentions . should i be rethinking them ? sonny : claudia 's not saying anything i do n't already know . why should i suddenly trust you ? claudia : you should n't . but i think you can use him . ric : use me ? i do n't know how to take that . should i be flattered or should i take that as an insult ? claudia : i watched the way that you worked this room , with your very own agenda . nothing upset your equilibrium . then i noticed that my father 's lieutenants ate it up . and they clearly like you much more than they ever liked your father , which is why i think , sonny , that we should find a place for ric . sonny : what ? you did n't want to invite him . now you 're letting him get close ? claudia : i do n't think you should trust him , but i think that my father probably did give him valuable information that he did n't tell anyone else , or else ric found it on his own . ric : yeah , you know me . i have a way of things falling into my lap . sonny : because you grab them and put them there . ric : no , because i have a very distinct talent for being invisible , sonny . invisible people have a way of seeing and hearing things that others do n't . you 'd be surprised of the kind of secrets i could expose for you . sonny : i 'll think about it . ric : that 's all i ask .

[ scene_break ] maxie : this is a disaster . the fbi is never going to let spinelli go again . this is all my fault . johnny : no , it 's not . maxie : yes , it is . he flew to los angeles . he had a new i.d . he was all set to leave the country and be safe . and i practically forced him to come back with me . now he 's going to be thrown in jail for the rest of his life , because i acted like a selfish brat . as usual , i only thought about myself . johnny : it was spinelli 's choice to come back to port charles . maxie : just like it was yours to go to that party tonight ? johnny : i was n't going to let my sister down . maxie : so , you let lulu down instead ? that makes a lot of sense . johnny : well , look , maxie , my whole life i 've been trying to break free of the mob . yes , part of me was also doing that for lulu , but when claudia married sonny , she completely ignored the danger she was putting herself in . maxie : claudia makes her own choices . johnny : i know . but that does n't mean that i 'm not going to do everything i can to protect her . maxie : that 's how i feel about spinelli . but how am i supposed to fight off the fbi ? spinelli 's life is over , so is mine . [ scene_break ] patrick : you know , it 's ironic . when robin and i first got together , she gave me so much grief about chasing women . now she 's the one cheating on me . elizabeth : it 's a little more complicated than that . patrick : yeah , you know , elizabeth , you 're right . it is a little more complicated . see , robin has hiv and i wonder if she even told the guy . you know , maybe she just thought she 'd keep it quiet , make it a little more simple . who knows what 's going on in her head ? elizabeth : patrick , i know this is upsetting for you . patrick : wow , really , you think ? elizabeth : i 'm not trying to defend robin , but i did read all that information on post - partum . it 's not uncommon for women with this condition to have an affair . patrick : is that supposed to make me feel better , elizabeth ? elizabeth : no , but it 's supposed to help you understand that it 's not about rejecting you . it 's a symptom of a serious illness . patrick : okay , i see , so i 'm not supposed to take it personally , right ? is that it ? just like you did n't take it personally when lucky cheated on you when he was addicted to pills ? patrick : i 'm sorry . i was out of line . elizabeth : it 's okay . actually , it 's a really good comparison . i know exactly how you feel right now . patrick : sick to my stomach . elizabeth : and like the world as you know it has shattered into a million pieces . patrick : of all the things that i thought i was going to confront when i got to that hotel , this never crossed my mind . elizabeth : you know , women with postpartum , they feel overwhelmed . they feel like they 're failures as wives and mothers , so they create this fantasy life where none of it exists . they can be whomever they want . patrick : clinically , intellectually , i get all that . but i ca n't get the image of robin making out with another guy out of my head . i do n't know if i 'm going to be able to get it out of my head . elizabeth : when she comes back , you guys ... patrick : if she comes back . elizabeth : she will . patrick : come here , sweetheart . elizabeth : patrick , she loves you , and she loves emma . the two of you are what she always wanted , a wonderful husband and a healthy baby . that 's part of the problem , is the unrealistic belief that everything should be perfect . patrick : yeah , well , she sure took a sledgehammer to that notion , did n't she ? elizabeth : when robin comes home , the two of you can discuss it . patrick : no . elizabeth , no . i 'm not going to talk about this , and neither can you . nobody can know that i found robin with another man , especially robin . [ scene_break ] maxie : what am i doing ? you have problems of your own . johnny : claudia 's the one i 'm worried about . she thought she could handle being married to sonny , but she 's in way over her head . maxie : is that why you went tonight ? johnny : i wanted to make sure everything was okay . i know lulu thought that i was jumping back in the mob the first chance i got , but i still want my own life . maxie : when we were waiting out that snow storm in the garage , and you were telling me how your dreams were to open up a car repair business , i do n't think i 've ever seen you happier . johnny : i 've always loved cars . working on them makes the time go by , you know ? i 'm not going to give that up for the mob . maxie : please tell lulu that . johnny : maybe it 's better off if she does n't know . maxie : so , here we are , back to the same old story . you do n't deserve lulu , and i do n't deserve spinelli . i do n't care , johnny . i want him anyway . and i 'm terrified i 'm going to lose him . i 've left jason and diane messages . nobody is calling me back . johnny : try not to assume something worst . maxie : sometimes the worst happens . do you want to count the parade of those i 've loved and lost ? no . but if i lose spinelli , that 's it for me . i 'm not going to get attached to anyone else . my heart will be closed for business . johnny : you know spinelli would n't want that for you . maxie : i do n't care . all the effort and energy it takes to get to know someone , it 's a big waste of time . i mean , i am who i am , with or without spinelli . without him , at least i could be as petty and selfish and trampy as i want and help myself to anything or anyone i feel like , including you . [ scene_break ] diane : your allegations are completely unsubstantiated . this entire case has been fabricated out of smoke and mirrors . spinelli : stone cold , the jackal offers his deepest apologies -- agent rayner : mr. spinelli , what a pleasure . i hope you did n't think we could n't find him when we wanted . spinelli : you warned me , but i would n't listen . diane : mr. spinelli , you will refrain from further commentary . spinelli : but i have failed stone cold and all who believe in me . agent rayner : well , mr. morgan failed you , too . because when push came to shove , he chose sending you to prison over giving evidence against sonny corinthos . spinelli : i 'm ready to offer a full confession that he i acted alone . jason : no , be quiet . spinelli : in no way , shape , or form was i hacking under jason morgan 's orders or for his benefit . jason : diane , can you do something ? agent rayner : she 's not going to be able to help . diane : on the contrary . i have yet to see one shred of this so - called evidence against mr. spinelli , if it even exists . agent rayner : oh , it exists all right . diane : then prove it . you bring it to this office right now , or i will file a writ , and we can take this whole thing to a judge . [ scene_break ] patrick : you getting sleepy yet ? no ? well , unfortunately your only other option is to listen to me . i do n't think you 're going to want to do that , because i 'm pretty confused right now . see , i fell in love with your mommy . i gave up my bachelor ways for a wife , a baby , a white picket fence . i thought happiness was going to automatically follow , but i was wrong , was n't i ? patrick : you know , your mommy has everything she wanted . but now it looks like she does n't want it . she took off in search of something . and i do n't know what it is . and i do n't think she does either . patrick : i do n't want none of this to touch you , okay ? i promise i 'm going to take care of you no matter what happens . robin : i 'm home .

[ door slamming ] maxie : no , no , no , no . you need to go back and tell her that you did n't mean that . spinelli : the jackal is in accord . you must go reconcile with fair lulu before the misunderstanding tears you asunder and you set your smoldering sights on fair maximista . maxie : spinelli . spinelli : i do not deny it . i know that you two shared heated lips and brinked a close encounter of the carnal kind in the garage of illicit passion and it must not happen again .

[ scene_break ] johnny : why would you tell spinelli , of all people , that you and i kissed in the garage that night ? maxie : because spinelli was about to go out of the country , and i figured the only way i could stop him would be to warn him that i would probably have sex with you if he was n't here to stop me . johnny : this is so twisted . spinelli : no , please do not speak harshly to maximista . maxie : it 's okay , spinelli . i do n't regret anything i had to do to keep you in my life . spinelli : maximista shoulders responsibility , but most certainly this vespid preyed on your vulnerabilities with his calculating charms . johnny : you know nothing about it , spinelli . spinelli : i know that the original blonde one would be crushed if she learned of your infidelity . maxie : no , no one is telling lulu about this , right ? spinelli : i would never do anything intentionally to cause her heartbreak . johnny : she might be better off if she knew the truth anyway . maxie : this is getting way out of hand . johnny : let 's face it . she and i never stood a chance in the first place . spinelli : just a word of warning , if you and fair lulu do decide to part ways , the road to maximista will most certainly be blocked by me .

[ scene_break ] duke : you 've gone above and beyond to prove yourself not only to me , but to the organization . jordan : so , asking me to kill julian jerome was really just a test to make sure i was n't working for the feds ? duke : i 'm fully confident that i can trust you now . sloane : nowhere on this recording does lavery expressly order julian jerome 's execution . jordan : yes , but in a previous meeting , he said it in no uncertain terms . sloane : is any of that on tape ? jordan : no . sloane : then it 's useless . no da or federal prosecutor can afford to take your word alone , not given the record of success that corinthos ' people have in court . jordan : well , that is why i met with him . we were trying to get him to incriminate himself over the wire , but instead , he called off the hit . sloane : the only upshot here is that lavery believes you 're loyal . you 're still in with him . anna : unless duke 's playing us , and he 's already onto jordan . [ scene_break ] duke : jordan has put us in a difficult position . i do n't want to act hastily and make matters worse . bruce : should n't you talk this over with mr. corinthos ? duke : no . that defeats the whole purpose of me overseeing the organization . duke : `` this custody thing `` ? this custody situation could last for months , maybe years . just because michael quartermaine has managed to exert undue influence over the judge . that 's not his main charge . his main charge is that sonny is dangerous because he 's involved in organized crime . his children have been targets before . he does n't want to see his daughter in danger again . bruce : so , it has to look to the courts like he 's out of the business . duke : sonny has to have complete deniability . whatever i decide to do with jordan , and he ca n't do anything about it . bruce : so , it 's on you . duke : yes . well , as it should be . i asked to join the organization . i brought in a traitor who made us all vulnerable . i have to address the problem and , if necessary , eliminate it .

[ scene_break ] luke : say hello to the ladies , patricia . it was necessary to gag and restrain her . just nod your head if you agree . you agree ? mm - hmm . you see ? because invalid though she may be , she 's still a spencer , and quite possibly could cause trouble . tracy : luke , this is inhuman . luke : no , just practical . who knows what kind of shenanigans patricia would get up to . all right , it 's been a while , so i 'll do the honors . the brunette with the glare that could melt solid rock is my lovely wife , tracy quartermaine . yeah . those quartermaines . and the redhead is our bouncing baby sister , barbara jean ! bobbie : patricia ... luke is sick . he does n't mean any of this . let me -- let me -- luke : take another step , and you 're a dead woman . [ scene_break ] olivia : you can do whatever the hell you want . because you know what ? you two are crazy . this one is a baby stealer . who the hell do you think is gon na believe a word that comes out of your mouth ? and you , with the art and the hair and the bombs , do you think -- not to mention the horror show of a mother of yours -- do you think any of the people in this town are gon na believe a word that comes out of your mouth ? franco : uh , i do n't need the people to believe me . nina : we just need julian to believe us . franco : and he looks primed to listen . julian : that good ? alexis : mm - hmm . julian : yeah . nina : hey . julian : may i help you ? franco : i do n't think you can help anyone . but i feel like we can certainly help you . alexis : was n't your brother supposed to pick you up ? are n't you living with him ? nina : j is really sweet , but he lives over kelly 's , and apparently , it smells like bacon , and that 's not how i want to spend my first night of freedom . we have a lot to celebrate . julian : well , go celebrate somewhere else . we 're trying to enjoy our evening here , and we 're not looking for any company . franco : excuse me . look , the last thing we want to do is put a damper on your date . it 's just that i feel like there 's something really important that we could share . julian : about what ? olivia : i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . a - alexis , julian , are these two bothering you ? alexis : yes . julian : they 're getting there . olivia : okay . uh , you know what ? i 'm sorry . i 'm gon na have to ask you two to leave . maybe we could find you guys your own table . nina : whoa . pushy , pushy right here , right here . i - i think that franco has something to tell julian . julian : well , go on , then . let 's hear it . [ scene_break ] sloane : you think lavery knew about the wire ? anna : i do n't see how he could . still , we know he had reason to suspect your allegiance , right ? did you sense that he was spooked in any way ? jordan : nope . nothing , nothing . he was as cordial as ever . sloane : but if he did catch on -- jordan : then i have a bigger target on my back than ever before . [ scene_break ] duke : jordan has been with the organization since new year . i think she knows how shipments work and how we collect money . and since she 's been involved with shawn , she 's had access to privileged information . bruce : then why have n't there been any arrests ? i mean , what 's she waiting for ? duke : well , if i 'm correct and this is anna devane 's operation , then she 's being very careful . she 's being methodical . she does n't want to build a case that will be dismissed on a technicality . bruce : how much evidence do you think jordan 's turned over at this point ? duke : that 's irrelevant . if they 're gon na indict somebody , chances are it 'll be me . sonny 's been out the picture for quite a while . so they 'll need jordan as a witness . but if she 's not around to testify , then their entire case will fall apart . bruce : you need to make sure jordan ca n't testify . duke : precisely . removing jordan is the best way to ensure that we 're all protected . [ scene_break ] dante : thanks . whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa ! stay still . stay still . you passed out . i think you have a concussion . ambulance is on the way . how 's that info for oak hill going ? lulu : it 's not that far . i have the route mapped out . dante : cool . can you text it to me ? lulu : what about valerie ? dante : you and valerie are gon na stay here till the ambulance gets here -- lulu : and let you confront my father without me ? hell no .

[ sighs ] okay , then . you have your answer , ladies . in deference to my big sister 's wishes , stop irritating me ! tracy : no , luke . we 're trying to help you . luke : well , you see , that goes to the -- right to the heart of what i 'm talking about . you 're proving my point . you two are obstacles that have to be removed . and patricia is old enough to remember things that she should n't remember . which brings up the psychological and philosophical question -- if there 's no one left alive to remember an event , did it happen ? tree , forest . anyway ... enjoy your reunion . hmm ? [ laughs ] it 's gon na be over soon enough . come on over here . come on . here we go . oh , look . look at this ! the three spencer siblings together at last . first time in decades ! tracy , you 're privileged to witness this rare but all too brief event . tracy : luke , they 're your sisters . you do n't want to hurt them . luke : there you go , telling me what i want again . bobbie : luke , you were always my protector . you always looked after me all these years . do n't you remember any of that ? luke : oh , bobbie , bobbie , bobbie . the past is the past . you know , the past is another place . it 's another country , as someone once wrote , which is really maudlin , i think , for my tastes . but it proves the point . the point is that the past is a brief -- sometimes brief , sometimes long . it 's -- it 's a totally different place and entity that some people choose to visit , and some people choose to live in . and i choose to eliminate ! tracy : how ? luke : you really have to ask , huh ? what do you think ? tracy : ow ! luke ! luke : now , i know you were first in line . but i 'm afraid [ chuckles ] these two are so obnoxious . tracy : because we have n't given up on you , luke . because we know that the man we love is still there somewhere . luke : oh , stop it . you and bobbie should be dead already . you should 've been blown sky high with the other sheep .

[ scene_break ] jordan : where the hell would you get an idea that i 'm an undercover agent ? sloane : aw , save it . your former boss gave you up -- bob massicotte . anna : he did . sloane : bob gave me a complete rundown . told me how you came to port charles to take down the julian jerome drug operation . when you botched that , the dea fired you . anna : jordan managed to infiltrate the jerome organization . she behaved admirably in a very high - risk operation . sloane : with zero results . which did n't stop you , ex - commissioner devane , from putting her on the pcpd payroll . and since jordan was being paid out of department funds , i should 've been thoroughly briefed . jordan : okay , well , i was n't gon na trust you with my life . thank you . sloane : why do n't you take a load off , get comfortable ? we have so much to discuss . anna : hey , listen , jordan . since the commissioner has strong - armed his way into our operation , then i suggest that we give him our full cooperation and just trust his discretion . look . the most important thing here is that duke continue to buy into your identity that you have spent years of your life constructing . how did the meeting go ? jordan : uh , were n't you listening in ? anna : i was a little preoccupied . sloane : not anymore . let 's hear about this meeting . tell me everything . [ scene_break ] duke : even without our tech monitoring the meeting , i 'd have known jordan was wearing a wire . she kept trying to lead the conversation . she wanted me to repeat my order to kill jerome . bruce : shawn 's sleeping with the woman . i mean , should n't you warn him that she 's a traitor ? duke : we ca n't take that chance . precisely because he 's seeing her . i mean , shawn will try to protect her . at the very least , he 'll warn her to run . bruce : you think he 'll choose the woman over his loyalty to the organization ? duke : we ca n't take that risk . it 's better for all concerned if shawn does n't know the truth about jordan till after she 's been dealt with . bruce : what about jerome ? duke : as much as i 'd like to see that man dead ... he 's no longer my priority . he can get on with his life for the moment . [ scene_break ] olivia : you think that this is julian jerome 's baby ? nina : oh , where would we get that idea ? olivia : okay . not that it 's either one of your business , but the father of my baby happens to be ned ashton , and that 's all i have to say on the matter . franco : really ? mama celeste , i 'm surprised . you had a lot more to say on the matter when you came to visit me in shadybrook . remember that chat ? i speculated about the father of the baby being chef boyardee , and then i prattled on about renaissance art , and you took that moment to unburden yourself about how it came to be that you were expecting . olivia : okay . you 're delusional . franco : it was new year 's eve . you and julian were two `` lonesome losers looking for consolation . `` um -- those are your words , not mine . nina : yeah , and -- and excuse me , but apparently , you were jealous of ned and alexis . franco : yeah , so you 're just telling everybody that it 's ned 's baby because you do n't `` want that mafioso to know that you 're having his baby . `` oh , my god . i have , like , the best memory . nina : you do . you really do . franco : i do . olivia : this can not be happening . you were so hopped up on lsd that day you could n't even see straight . franco : yeah . okay , the thing about that , i was faking it . olivia : you can not fake an overdose . your -- your whole system was full of drugs . nina : um , technically , heather did n't inject him . he injected himself with a needle that was meant for me , and then he decided to stay at shadybrook so he could be by my side . franco : yeah . i mean , technically , i did go a little nuts when i jabbed myself with the lsd . nina : yeah , but not as much as you wanted people to believe . olivia : so , you faked crazy so you could stay in the nut house with your favorite little nut . franco : whoa ! wait a minute . nina : whoa ! watch it . franco : when i was done tripping , nina was doing better . i just decided to play crazy because it was my bright idea to keep myself out of pentonville . nina : yeah . you know , i played crazy , too , because i wanted to be by his side . franco : which really was nuts when you think about it , 'cause you could 've gone home , like , weeks ago . nina : no , i was n't gon na leave you to rot there . no way . franco : aww . is n't she the best , right ? friends do n't come better than you . nina : not really friends . more than f -- franco : well , yeah . olivia : oh , stop it , stop it , stop it . just stop it . two of you are more delusional than i ever thought was humanly possible . franco : you 're calling us crazy , and you slept with julian jerome ? nina : yeah , and got knocked up by him . franco : and then confided in me ? nina : and then told him that he could n't tell anybody . franco : especially not julian ? nina : that sounds a lot crazier to me . franco : yeah . olivia : why ? why did i even come near you ? why did i waste an ounce of compassion on you ? franco : you know , no good deed goes unpunished . here 's a simple solution . you go ahead and comp us the luxury suite in exchange for our future silence . nina : yes , and denying our request would be insane . franco : totally . cough up the keys , mama . nina : and champagne . franco : oh , yeah , and -- and , uh ... the little chocolates on each one of the pillows . nina : yeah , i like those chocolates . franco : you like chocolate ? nina : yeah , of course . [ scene_break ] jordan : we found an opening , a way to take duke down . sloane : what opening ? anna : jordan got an order from duke to kill julian jerome . sloane : conspiracy to commit murder . nice . jordan : well , i wore a wire to the meeting to try to get duke to incriminate himself . sloane : and did you ? jordan : no . in fact , duke called off the hit . [ scene_break ] jake : sloane . carly : you did n't forget . jake : no , i did not forget . i just have n't thought that far . i 've kind of had a lot to process . carly : okay , well , you know what ? sloane is still dangling those charges over your head . unless you want me to call diane miller , because i will . jake : no , would you please stop offering to pay for my lawyer ? i do n't want to stand trial . i want to take care of this on my own . carly : okay , well , then you 're gon na have to follow through with the deal you made with sloane . you 're gon na have to go undercover to take julian down , and the commissioner wo n't re - file the charges . jake : and i thought you said going undercover was a bad idea . carly : i did . and it is . jake : and you seem pretty happy about it this moment . carly : well , it 's better than watching you hop on a bus to beecher 's corners with hayden . jake : so , you do n't care that i 'm forced to be a rat as long as it keeps me in town . carly : of course , i care . i care a lot . i ca n't stand the fact that you 're gon na put yourself in danger , lie , and go undercover . but i 'd rather you be close than in beecher 's corners with a woman i know is not your wife . jake : [ sighs ] so you 're sliding with sloane , huh ? carly : i 'm stating the fact if you try and go back to your supposed old life , you will be starting a new one in pentonville . [ scene_break ] luke : this is all my dear niece valerie 's fault . she told you that patricia was in the oak hill cemetery , but you could n't find her eternal resting place , so you ran a search , and you discovered in oak hill a convalescent hospital . bobbie : yes , we checked , and patricia is registered here . tracy : how do you even know what valerie told lulu and me ? did you threaten it out of her ? luke : i did n't have to do that . i was there the whole time . [ scene_break ] lulu : valerie , you need to slow down . you have a head injury . valerie : it does n't matter . i need to get to my mother . dante : no , no , no . i 'll take care of that , okay ? all you need to do is tell me how to get in touch with this hospital . valerie : you 're not going anywhere without me . i 'm the one who told that monster where she is . dante : okay , valerie , you got to stay here with lulu , okay , until you get medical attention . you are in no condition to face luke right now , and i ca n't help you . valerie : i 'm stronger than you think . dante : i do n't know if -- lulu : [ gasps ] valerie ! [ scene_break ] tracy : i knew valerie was hiding something . it was you . luke : with this motivator at her back . tracy : and the whole time , she was telling us that lame story about a cat . you were -- luke : meow . tracy : i told lulu that girl had no cat . luke : those are flawless instincts . you should 've listened to them and stayed in port charles . bobbie : enough of this , luke . we came here to see patricia . luke : why the sudden interest in our lost sister ? when i told you to forget patricia , you should 've listened to me . bobbie : damn it , luke . this is patricia 's room . so , what have you done with our sister ? luke : okay , you want to see patricia ? knock yourselves out . ta - da ! [ scene_break ] jake : you have a point . carly : what was that ? jake : you have a point . carly : can you say that again ? i want to , um , make that my ringtone . jake : yeah , how you gon na explain that to sonny ? carly : [ chuckles ] sonny does n't pick my ringtones . and he does n't pick my friends . sorry , i wo n't ... make it a ringtone . i know that sounds like i 'm gloating , huh ? jake : it does . carly : i 'm not . at all . i - i ... i do n't think you deserve any of this . jake : yeah , well , it 's fine . here . carly : it 's not fine . it 's not fine at all . you know , sloane 's the bastard that 's taking advantage of what helena dido you . and hayden ? okay , hayden . i - i -- jake : do me a favor . please do n't start . if you start , i 'm gon na be forced to defend her , and i do n't want to fight with you . carly : okay . let 's talk about something safe , right ? let 's talk about , um , julian . what 's going on with him ? you know i 'm just gon na bug you until you tell me , so you might as well save us both time . come on . please ? jake : i start working for julian tomorrow . and sloane 's gon na want his report by the end of the day . carly : you gon na be here to give it to him , or are you gon na ... take off with hayden ? jake : i ca n't take my wife on the run . and i ca n't leave her behind , so i guess my only option is to convince hayden to stay here with me in port charles and then ... report to work . [ scene_break ] duke : you 've gone above and beyond to prove yourself not only to me , but to the organization . jordan : so , asking me to kill julian jerome was really just a test to make sure i was n't working for the feds ? duke : i 'm fully confident that i can trust you now . sloane : nowhere on this recording does lavery expressly order julian jerome 's execution . jordan : yes , but in a previous meeting , he said it in no uncertain terms . sloane : is any of that on tape ? jordan : no . sloane : then it 's useless . no da or federal prosecutor can afford to take your word alone , not given the record of success that corinthos ' people have in court . jordan : well , that is why i met with him . we were trying to get him to incriminate himself over the wire , but instead , he called off the hit . sloane : the only upshot here is that lavery believes you 're loyal . you 're still in with him . anna : unless duke 's playing us , and he 's already onto jordan . [ scene_break ] duke : jordan has put us in a difficult position . i do n't want to act hastily and make matters worse . bruce : should n't you talk this over with mr. corinthos ? duke : no . that defeats the whole purpose of me overseeing the organization . duke : `` this custody thing `` ? this custody situation could last for months , maybe years . just because michael quartermaine has managed to exert undue influence over the judge . that 's not his main charge . his main charge is that sonny is dangerous because he 's involved in organized crime . his children have been targets before . he does n't want to see his daughter in danger again . bruce : so , it has to look to the courts like he 's out of the business . duke : sonny has to have complete deniability . whatever i decide to do with jordan , and he ca n't do anything about it . bruce : so , it 's on you . duke : yes . well , as it should be . i asked to join the organization . i brought in a traitor who made us all vulnerable . i have to address the problem and , if necessary , eliminate it .

[ scene_break ] luke : say hello to the ladies , patricia . it was necessary to gag and restrain her . just nod your head if you agree . you agree ? mm - hmm . you see ? because invalid though she may be , she 's still a spencer , and quite possibly could cause trouble . tracy : luke , this is inhuman . luke : no , just practical . who knows what kind of shenanigans patricia would get up to . all right , it 's been a while , so i 'll do the honors . the brunette with the glare that could melt solid rock is my lovely wife , tracy quartermaine . yeah . those quartermaines . and the redhead is our bouncing baby sister , barbara jean ! bobbie : patricia ... luke is sick . he does n't mean any of this . let me -- let me -- luke : take another step , and you 're a dead woman . [ scene_break ] olivia : you can do whatever the hell you want . because you know what ? you two are crazy . this one is a baby stealer . who the hell do you think is gon na believe a word that comes out of your mouth ? and you , with the art and the hair and the bombs , do you think -- not to mention the horror show of a mother of yours -- do you think any of the people in this town are gon na believe a word that comes out of your mouth ? franco : uh , i do n't need the people to believe me . nina : we just need julian to believe us . franco : and he looks primed to listen . julian : that good ? alexis : mm - hmm . julian : yeah . nina : hey . julian : may i help you ? franco : i do n't think you can help anyone . but i feel like we can certainly help you . alexis : was n't your brother supposed to pick you up ? are n't you living with him ? nina : j is really sweet , but he lives over kelly 's , and apparently , it smells like bacon , and that 's not how i want to spend my first night of freedom . we have a lot to celebrate . julian : well , go celebrate somewhere else . we 're trying to enjoy our evening here , and we 're not looking for any company . franco : excuse me . look , the last thing we want to do is put a damper on your date . it 's just that i feel like there 's something really important that we could share . julian : about what ? olivia : i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . a - alexis , julian , are these two bothering you ? alexis : yes . julian : they 're getting there . olivia : okay . uh , you know what ? i 'm sorry . i 'm gon na have to ask you two to leave . maybe we could find you guys your own table . nina : whoa . pushy , pushy right here , right here . i - i think that franco has something to tell julian . julian : well , go on , then . let 's hear it . [ scene_break ] sloane : you think lavery knew about the wire ? anna : i do n't see how he could . still , we know he had reason to suspect your allegiance , right ? did you sense that he was spooked in any way ? jordan : nope . nothing , nothing . he was as cordial as ever . sloane : but if he did catch on -- jordan : then i have a bigger target on my back than ever before . [ scene_break ] duke : jordan has been with the organization since new year . i think she knows how shipments work and how we collect money . and since she 's been involved with shawn , she 's had access to privileged information . bruce : then why have n't there been any arrests ? i mean , what 's she waiting for ? duke : well , if i 'm correct and this is anna devane 's operation , then she 's being very careful . she 's being methodical . she does n't want to build a case that will be dismissed on a technicality . bruce : how much evidence do you think jordan 's turned over at this point ? duke : that 's irrelevant . if they 're gon na indict somebody , chances are it 'll be me . sonny 's been out the picture for quite a while . so they 'll need jordan as a witness . but if she 's not around to testify , then their entire case will fall apart . bruce : you need to make sure jordan ca n't testify . duke : precisely . removing jordan is the best way to ensure that we 're all protected . [ scene_break ] dante : thanks . whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa ! stay still . stay still . you passed out . i think you have a concussion . ambulance is on the way . how 's that info for oak hill going ? lulu : it 's not that far . i have the route mapped out . dante : cool . can you text it to me ? lulu : what about valerie ? dante : you and valerie are gon na stay here till the ambulance gets here -- lulu : and let you confront my father without me ? hell no . [ scene_break ] luke : i was so looking forward to catching up with you , patricia . it was so rude of the two of you to crash our party . bobbie : luke , please . at least let me take the gag off her mouth . luke : [ sighs ] why do n't we let patricia decide ? pat ! would you like me to leave the gag on ... or would you like to watch me put a bullet in barbara jean 's heart ? you see ? apparently , you have your answer . she 's chosen door number two , bobbie . tracy : luke ... you have to stop this . luke : okay , now , what about tracy ? would you enjoy watching me shoot her ? hmm ? [ sighs ] okay , then . you have your answer , ladies . in deference to my big sister 's wishes , stop irritating me ! tracy : no , luke . we 're trying to help you . luke : well , you see , that goes to the -- right to the heart of what i 'm talking about . you 're proving my point . you two are obstacles that have to be removed . and patricia is old enough to remember things that she should n't remember . which brings up the psychological and philosophical question -- if there 's no one left alive to remember an event , did it happen ? tree , forest . anyway ... enjoy your reunion . hmm ? [ laughs ] it 's gon na be over soon enough . come on over here . come on . here we go . oh , look . look at this ! the three spencer siblings together at last . first time in decades ! tracy , you 're privileged to witness this rare but all too brief event . tracy : luke , they 're your sisters . you do n't want to hurt them . luke : there you go , telling me what i want again . bobbie : luke , you were always my protector . you always looked after me all these years . do n't you remember any of that ? luke : oh , bobbie , bobbie , bobbie . the past is the past . you know , the past is another place . it 's another country , as someone once wrote , which is really maudlin , i think , for my tastes . but it proves the point . the point is that the past is a brief -- sometimes brief , sometimes long . it 's -- it 's a totally different place and entity that some people choose to visit , and some people choose to live in . and i choose to eliminate ! tracy : how ? luke : you really have to ask , huh ? what do you think ? tracy : ow ! luke ! luke : now , i know you were first in line . but i 'm afraid [ chuckles ] these two are so obnoxious . tracy : because we have n't given up on you , luke . because we know that the man we love is still there somewhere . luke : oh , stop it . you and bobbie should be dead already . you should 've been blown sky high with the other sheep .

[ scene_break ] spinelli : it was most unfair to accuse the original blonde one of conspiring to force myself and maxie back into our previous dysfunctional pattern . you would never cause such pain simply to facilitate a reunion between yourself and the unworthy mob prince . such deception is only something that the faithless one could be capable of . maxie : that 's really unfair . spinelli : and upon further consideration , i recognize that fair lulu 's distress was indeed legitimate , so i will accept the case with one provision -- that i work for you and not the faithless one . maxie : spinelli , why are you being so mean to me ? you 've never been this mean to me before . spinelli : cruelty is not my intention , but rather clarity . this p.i . will no longer be subject to your manipulations .

[ scene_break ] jax : based on all the information we were given , i concluded , and i thought that jason agreed , that we should wait for dr. hensen to return and do the surgery . carly : i know , i know . but patrick does n't think we have time . jason : sometimes you have to trust your instincts . i 'm going with carly on this one . patrick : all right . i have a team standing by . i 'll get us prepped . we 'll come and get michael . carly : thank you .

[ scene_break ] patrick : brother , you 're a pain in the ass . matt : oh , it looks like i hit a nerve . patrick : i 'm doing this procedure with or without you , and it 's not to show up dr. hensen , but because it 's the reason why i became a neurosurgeon in the first place . look , michael corinthos is neither alive nor dead . he 's slowly deteriorating , on the verge of atrophy , and he could be there for years . there 's maybe a dozen surgeons in the world that could pull off this procedure , and i 'm one of them . and that 's not my god complex talking . that 's a fact . backing out to save my career , well , that would make me the worst kind of coward . matt : or one that would get to keep his license and get to keep practicing medicine . patrick : but this is what i do . look , the bottom line is , this is going to be a long , complicated surgery . i could use your help for some reason other than i can think of right now . i trust you more than marucci . but , hey , it 's your call . matt : oh , great , so if i do n't do it , i 'm a coward . looks like you 're driving over a cliff , and i 'm riding shotgun .

[ scene_break ] sonny : how are you doing ? claudia : fine . sonny : you know what ? epiphany said that it 's going to take a while , so you do n't need to stay . claudia : i want to stay . i 'd just be thinking about michael wherever i was , anyway . i might as well be here . carly : hey . jax : you need to stay hydrated . carly : water to go with my low - sodium diet , bland and boring . that 's my new middle name . jax : say goodbye to frozen pizza . sonny : good luck with that . carly : pepperoni with extra cheese . that 's michael 's favorite . i 'll have to stock up . jax : let me open that for you . carly : thanks . jax : hey , we 're going to be fine . carly : yeah . jax : all of us .

[ scene_break ] carly : what are we supposed to do ? dr. hensen said we had time . what do we do now ?

[ scene_break ] spinelli : it was most unfair to accuse the original blonde one of conspiring to force myself and maxie back into our previous dysfunctional pattern . you would never cause such pain simply to facilitate a reunion between yourself and the unworthy mob prince . such deception is only something that the faithless one could be capable of . maxie : that 's really unfair . spinelli : and upon further consideration , i recognize that fair lulu 's distress was indeed legitimate , so i will accept the case with one provision -- that i work for you and not the faithless one . maxie : spinelli , why are you being so mean to me ? you 've never been this mean to me before . spinelli : cruelty is not my intention , but rather clarity . this p.i . will no longer be subject to your manipulations . [ scene_break ] nikolas : oh . that 's it . do n't stop . rebecca : yeah ? see , i told you that would loosen you up . nikolas : i ca n't really breathe that good , but i think my back feels better . rebecca : you know , i 've seen this in the movies , and it just did n't look this dangerous . i mean , how do you think they did it ? nikolas : i think there 's , like , a bar attached to the ceiling . i 'm not sure . rebecca : yeah , that makes sense . nikolas : oh , be careful . rebecca : no , wait , relax . i 've got everything under -- oh ! nikolas : oh , my god . are you okay ? rebecca : yeah . nikolas : are you okay ? rebecca : uh - huh . nikolas : are you sure ? rebecca : yeah . nikolas : because that was really funny . i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . [ scene_break ] patrick : michael has taken a turn for the worse . his nsd levels are dangerously low . jax : which , according to dr. hensen , is not a crucial factor . patrick : it 's the degree to which they are dropping . his levels have gone down 25 % in the last 24 hours . sonny : i want to speak with dr. hensen myself . patrick : dr. hensen is n't available . she went back to europe on a family emergency . jax : i spoke with her , sonny . she recommended that we wait until she gets back . patrick : and i disagree . every hour that passes reduces our chances of success . jax : right . success puts another notch in your belt . patrick : this is n't about my ego , jax . this is about maximizing michael 's chances . jax : well , i 'm sorry . i would rather rely on the advice of the doctor who developed the procedure . patrick : i 've gone over dr. hensen 's research . i 've looked at every piece of available data . i can do this procedure as well , if not better than dr. hensen . and this standing around debating is wasting michael 's time . a decision needs to be made . frankly , carly should be part of this decision . jax : now that 's exactly what we do n't want , okay ? she 's due back here any moment . i do n't want her walking in on this . sonny : jax , if we do n't consult carly , she 's going to be more upset . she 's michael 's mother . jax : and you 're his father . now , i realize that you and i rarely see eye to eye , but i 'm asking you to go with the doctor who pioneered the procedure . i do n't want carly walking in on this , okay ? it could literally kill her and the baby . patrick : michael 's window is closing fast . sonny : i respect you . you 're a good doctor . but i also know that it 's eating at you that michael went into a coma on your watch . you may have something to prove . we 're talking about carly and michael 's lives on the line here . i agree with jax . we wait . [ scene_break ] jason : all i know -- patrick saw something in michael 's tests , carly . it 's some important level that has to be high , and it 's dropping right now , and patrick thinks it 's only going to get worse . carly : i think dr. hensen 's on a plane . jason : yes . jax spoke to her before she left . she 's convinced the surgery can wait until she gets back , but patrick thinks it has to happen right now if there 's any chance of this surgery working . carly : what do we do ? who are we supposed to listen to ? jason : i do n't know . i do n't know . patrick saved my life , but that 's no guarantee that he 's going to save michael 's life , and jax agrees with dr. hensen . carly : i love jax , but i 'm afraid he 's going to decide based on what least complicates my pregnancy , and i ca n't do that . i ca n't do that . i have to take care of michael . what the hell am i supposed to do ? i mean , do i let patrick operate on michael today ? i -- [ scene_break ] rebecca : careful . be careful . nikolas : i know what i 'm doing . there we go . see ? i 'm graceful , like a cat .

[ scene_break ] jax : you know i want what 's best for michael , but i worry about you , too . carly : you need to trust me . i 'm going to be okay . and so is this little girl . we 're going to be just fine . hey , i 'm glad you 're here . i decided to let patrick do the operation . jason supports my decision , and they 're prepping the o.r . now . sonny : can i spend some time alone with carly and michael ? [ scene_break ] patrick : brother , you 're a pain in the ass . matt : oh , it looks like i hit a nerve . patrick : i 'm doing this procedure with or without you , and it 's not to show up dr. hensen , but because it 's the reason why i became a neurosurgeon in the first place . look , michael corinthos is neither alive nor dead . he 's slowly deteriorating , on the verge of atrophy , and he could be there for years . there 's maybe a dozen surgeons in the world that could pull off this procedure , and i 'm one of them . and that 's not my god complex talking . that 's a fact . backing out to save my career , well , that would make me the worst kind of coward . matt : or one that would get to keep his license and get to keep practicing medicine . patrick : but this is what i do . look , the bottom line is , this is going to be a long , complicated surgery . i could use your help for some reason other than i can think of right now . i trust you more than marucci . but , hey , it 's your call . matt : oh , great , so if i do n't do it , i 'm a coward . looks like you 're driving over a cliff , and i 'm riding shotgun . [ scene_break ] maxie : okay , you caught me . it was going to be a surprise , but i had spinelli come over here to install one of those brand new -- what 's it called again , spinelli ? spinelli : state - of - the - art firewalls . it 's to protect the sacrosanct `` crimson `` files from those evil doers who would wish to get their foot in the door , no pun intended , with the competition . that 's all . kate : mm - hmm . you mean the people responsible for leaking our new shoe layout to `` couture `` so that they could copy it and run it before we had a chance ? did you think i would n't notice , maxie , that giselle is running our new feature ? spinelli : maxie made a mention of it . i 'll get right on it . kate : i 'm very disappointed , maxie . this is a huge problem , and it essentially happened on your watch . maxie : okay , it really was n't my fault . i treated this layout the exact same way i do all the confidential material , but i 'm not going to stand here defending myself . i 'm going to find where the leak came from , and then i 'm going to get rid of it . that 's what spinelli is here for . kate : okay , so i 'm just supposed to trust spinelli because you recommended him , when essentially , this is all your fault to begin with ? maxie : well , he is a computer genius . kate : yes , maxie , but unfortunately , to solve this problem it requires finesse and subtlety and the ability to communicate clearly . now , mr. spinelli has many , many endearing qualities , but the ability to communicate is not one of them . maxie : well , he has me to interpret for him . kate : this is not a game , maxie . if you do n't find the saboteur , you and lulu will both be out of a job . maxie : lulu does n't have anything to do with this . kate : but you are a team , correct ? whatever happens to one happens to the other . now , if you want to entrust lulu and mr. spinelli with your entire future of fashion , then fine . it is your funeral . maxie : i trust spinelli with my life . kate : good , you have 24 hours to fix it . spinelli : i will not disappoint . [ scene_break ] luke : thank you , princess , for the show of support . it is very comforting to me to know that you would put aside your loathing of mr. lovett long enough to show such kindness to an old sod like your father . lulu : well , ethan is not the jerk that i thought he was . you are a liar and a con artist , but you 've got my dad 's back , which makes you not a total deadbeat in my book . ethan : well , thank you . as they say in the lucky country , flattery will get you everywhere . lulu : do n't let it go to your head . tracy : ethan , i want you to go to the house , please , and inventory all the alcohol . i need to know what luke stole yesterday . ethan : now ? tracy : now . we have to replace it before daddy notices . go on . ethan : okay , you 're the boss . lulu : so what happened ? are you okay ? luke : yeah , as you can see , all working parts are intact . lulu : yeah , but ethan said you had a fight with lucky . what was that about ? luke : just the usual , nothing to be concerned about . lulu : well , i know how hard lucky can be on you , and so does ethan . luke : mr. lovett has turned out to be more observant and empathic than i expected . lulu : i know . i hate when i 'm wrong . luke : you and me both , princess . lulu : i would never admit this to ethan , but i think i 'm actually starting to like him . tracy : think again , missy .

[ bottles clank ] [ air hisses ] cane : [ sighs ] lily : which is to be expected . people listening , other voices cutting in . sometimes i have so much to say to you , but the words never come out . at least , not the words i 'm looking for . and sometimes the words i need to hear . i do n't even know what i need to hear , but i know it 's not the same as face- to - face . it 's helped having dad close - by . he 's starting to understand what it 's really like here . not that anyone really can unless you live it . that 's why you have no choice but to really get to know the women here , get invested in each other 's lives , talk about kids and relationships , problems and priorities . and once in a while , plans . but those are trickier . you need future plans to get through the hours here . but then again , sometimes it feels like tempting fate . as if pushing for something is a way to make sure it never actually comes true . our phone calls are hard for me sometimes . because it 's the opposite of how my conversations are here day - to - day . you and i talk about the past and the future , but we avoid the now . and i know sometimes that 's my fault . i live this life . so talking about it just feels like more of the same . [ scoffs ] i do n't know what i 'm trying to say . it does n't get easier here , but it does become more normal . and that 's scary in itself . like i 'm losing who i was , and she 's not coming back . i 'm sorry . this is n't what you want to read . thank you for looking out for the kids , and being the best father possible . i 'm grateful they have you . my love to you all . lily . cane : [ sighs ] victor : [ chuckles ] to most , he 's phil mickelson ... victor : i 'll be damned . is that how you spend your time now , instead of leading jabot ? oh , i forgot . you 're working for my boy now , are n't you ? and an outsider is running jabot ? company your father built ? jack : i came to check on you . an act of charity . victor : really ? how kind of you . did you think you 'd find me here depressed and despondent ? jack : oh , no , no , no . i assume if anyone knows the ropes , it 's you . i just wanted to put your mind at ease . victor : [ chuckles ] oh , yeah ? how 's that ? jack : well , we 're both patriarchs of our respective families , and i know how difficult it must be to not be at home with the people that you love . but your family , of course , has , at times , been my family . i have a relationship with nikki . my connection with nicholas and victoria , especially abby . just rest assured , i will look out for them no matter how long you 're ... away . victor : ohh . that is so kind of you , jack . my god . you 're offering to take care of my family while i 'm here , right ? got news for you . they 're newmans . they do n't need anyone 's help . besides ... i run things from in here . including my business . so you know what you can do with your generous offer , right ? devon : i read about victor . i 'm sorry to hear about all that stuff . abby : thanks . yeah , um ... well , it 's making me crazy thinking about him being locked up . and everything they 're saying about him and j.t . , none of it is true . devon : you know we could have postponed today if you wanted to . it 's totally fine . abby : no , lola is ready . and i do n't want that building i bought sitting empty any longer than it needs to . we need to start making money . devon : [ chuckles ] ana : i 'm gon na clear out before the chef arrives . devon : no , you 're not . you were here when we decided to hire lola , and i want you here now . i want to get your opinion on all the recipes . ana : well , all right , then . abby : [ chuckles ] ana : but full disclosure -- i think she 's a genius . and i did n't have breakfast , so do n't try to fight me for the last bite of anything .

'cause , yeah , we -- we want to be distinctive and stand out . we do n't want to follow any trends . devon : that 's right . we do n't do that . we set the trends . abby : mm - hmm . lola : and if there 's a dish that you do n't like , that you think does n't fit -- abby : you have good instincts , lola . lola : i know . that 's what i was just going to say . abby : [ chuckles ] lola : that before we cross anything off the list , you give me a chance to explain why i think it works with the overall concept . devon : for sure , yeah . sounds good to me . lola : i am so glad . i really want this . i want this chance . and these dishes , this menu , it speaks to me . it speaks for me . and , honestly , i think we could really have something special here . abby : do we even deserve you ? i 'm not convinced that we do . devon : she just keeps setting the bar . we just have to meet it . that 's all . lola : okay . so , i 'm going to get started . and you will need these ... abby : thank you . lola : ... so you know what 's coming . devon : okay .

[ abby chuckles ] and for dinner , i also selected small dishes , because that 's the whole point , right ? abby : mm - hmm . lola : to celebrate and share with your loved ones . but one thing that i have noticed is that , when you have a bigger plate , and the server brings it into the dining room , other diners notice . they lean over their table , and they ask what they 're holding , and then they start a conversation , and then everyone 's speaking about our food in our restaurant , and nobody is a stranger . and i think that 's the mood that we want to set . or maybe i 'm just saying what i think and not what you want , and maybe we -- abby : i love your passion for this , lola . devon : so do i . abby : mm - hmm . devon : and i love your food . ana : yeah , not one miss in all of this . the consistency is amazing . devon : there 's some pricing suggestions that are a little off , but aside from that , it 's ... lola : too high ? devon : no , it 's too low . i think people will pay good money for this kind of food . lola : but , uh , with all due respect to your profit margin , i do n't want to price people out . abby : we won't . ever . there 's options on the menu for regular meals or special date - night entrees . devon : absolutely . and you 're right about the shared plates , but we also want to have smaller dishes for the bar menu , too , right ? abby : agreed . mm - hmm . lola : so , is there anything that you do n't like that we -- you think we should take out ? because i really put in a lot of thought to every single thing , the ingredients and the heat level -- abby : it shows . these dishes are solid . [ chuckles ] lola : [ sighs ] really ? devon : yes , really . it 's like my associate said -- there 's not a miss in the bunch here . ana : and that 's not just 'cause i 'm your biggest fan . lola : really ? i do n't have to defend any dishes ? because i can . i came prepared . devon : i can see that . abby : look , i know all this can be intimidating . it is for me , too . i mean , of all the businesses i 've been a part of , i 've never opened a restaurant before . but we are all doing what we do best , and this is going to work . lola : it 's really going to work , is n't it ? okay . i will go pack up . devon : hang on . there is one more thing that we need to discuss , 'cause we ca n't really move forward until it 's settled . jack : the same place they kept me when they accused me of trying to kill you last year . victor : instead , you rummaged through my office , and you stole my belongings , did n't you ? jack : turns out it was j.t . all along , and now here you are , accused of killing him . i guess the long arm of the law finally has the guilty party . victor : oh , yeah ? you think so ? jack : oh , i - i do n't judge . victor : mm . jack : i mean , i do n't know the whole story . how could i ? but do i think you killed him ? [ victor chuckles ] ab - so - lutely . victor : of course you do . but then , you know , you 're wrong , and who gives a damn what you think ? jack : now , i 'm not saying that j.t . did n't provoke you . i mean , he made an attempt on your life not once , but twice . betrayed victoria to infiltrate your company . i do n't know which infuriated you more -- him tricking your daughter or him playing you so well to your face . you invite him into your home , you give him a job . you have no idea what he 's up to . i know how much you pride yourself on looking into the hearts of men and seeing the evil that lurks there . i do n't know . with j.t . , maybe your radar was on the fritz . that had to sting . my sympathies to michael . he has to try to win this case . i mean , you 're victor newman , standing means and motive . victor : michael baldwin will not represent me . jack : oh , you 're seeking outside counsel ? victor : no one will represent me . i refuse to play the d.a . 's game . jack : ah , there it is . that majestic ego that blots out the sun . and logic and reason . seriously . `` it was n't me `` is your whole defense ? so much for looking out for your family . hell , you wo n't even look out for yourself . your insurance rates skyrocket after a scratch so small abby : your contract . lola : so it 's official . [ sighs ] lola : wow . so many words . devon : [ chuckles ] abby : it 's all standard , but you probably should have a lawyer take a look at it . devon : yeah . it 's all a part of business , though . we all need to feel protected , and you need to be assured that you 're comfortable with every part of the deal . ana : and one thing i did n't realize before i got to lp -- it 's okay to go back and forth over a deal . fine - tune it . that 's how this works . devon : absolutely . she 's right . abby : and one last detail . lola : wait , what ? it 's a check . with zeroes . but we have n't even opened yet . abby : it 's an advance . a retainer . once we 're up and running , you 'll get a salary . but until then , we want to make sure you 're happy . lola : this is too much . devon : lola , i 'm gon na say something to you . you need to hear me , okay ? it 's not too much . abby : devon is right . your talent is worth that and more . hey , we 're all gon na profit from this , anyway , so , out of friendship and respect , shut up and enjoy it . [ laughter ] cane : listen , you guys are good kids , all right , and you have a good heart , and you 're good friends , and of course victoria would want you there for reed , all right ? she would n't hold anything against you . but i 'm a different story , here . charlie : what , do you think she still has something against you ? cane : look , we talked after the accident , all right , and still there 's a lot of things she holds me responsible for -- things that went wrong in the past , all right ? and ... she 's not wrong . mattie : okay , i get that . but she 's not about to turn you away from a memorial service . you and mr . hellstrom were friends . i do n't know why reed 's mom would freak out about having you there . cane : i 'm not saying that she 's gon na freak out . i was just saying -- mattie : mom would go . cane : all right . mattie : if mom was here , all four of us would go as a family , and you would n't think twice . cane : all right , if your mom was here , there 'd be a lot of things that would be different . charlie : so , what , all of a sudden we 're not a family ? cane : of course we 're a family . mattie : we can go without you , but it 's weird . and i think it 's hurtful for you to stay away . the last thing i want to do is make reed or anyone else feel worse at a time like this . please , dad . cane : okay . okay . we 'll go as a family . victor : i 'm sure there are a lot of people who would delight in me taking the fall for this murder to get me out of the way . you might be one of them . jack : [ scoffs ] me ? victor : mm . jack : i avenged you ? victor : mm . jack : after all the wonderful things you have done for me ? i killed your would - be murderer . victor : mm . that a confession ? i 'll call the guards . jack : oh , sorry to dash your very limited hopes , but , no , it was n't me . nice try , though . victor : mm . you know i have quite a few enemies . you 're not the only one . jack : oh , yeah . i know . you have more than your share of enemies . maybe someone did work very hard to set you up . or maybe the answer 's a whole lot simpler -- you murdered j.t . victor : you know i hate his guts , and i have reason to after what he has done to victoria , but i would n't kill him in cold blood . i would n't do that to his son , and i would n't do that to victoria . and besides , do you really think i would be so stupid as to plant a gun and a blood - stained shirt in my stables ? jack : that 's the only evidence the police have against you ? victor : whoever the unnamed enemy of mine is , he or she is not very bright , are they ? jack : wow . how 'bout that ? you could be telling the truth . victor : how about that , jack ? devon : so , i have this assistant manager at the club who 's looking to move on to bigger and better things , and she 's young and hungry , and has some very big ideas . ana : i 'm forwarding you her contact information . abby : perfect . thank you . yeah , i will set up a meeting for her and lola . what about that , um -- that bartender ? the crazy one you were telling me about ? devon : yeah . that guy , he hosts private parties and has drink - tasting menus . abby : that 's great . that 's the vibe we 're looking for . devon : right ? abby : yeah . devon : ana , would you -- ana : i 'll set up a tasting . devon : thank you very much . abby : this is gon na be good . devon : it 's gon na be great . abby : [ chuckles ] remind me again why it took us so long to work together . devon : you know , that 's a very good question . i have no idea . i think we were just waiting for the right moment . abby : and here it is . you look ... you look good . you look like yourself , you know what i mean ? devon : thank you . ana : it 's because of you and this project . abby : no , i think it 's because of you . friends and partners are great , but family is special . and my family forgets that on a regular basis . you better not . devon : oh , you have my word . kyle : come in , come in . how was it ? i need details . lola : i could n't , uh ... i just needed this to be in person . kyle : so ... i should be tense and worried because you 're acting weird , but ... it was great , was n't it ? lola : it was incredible . kyle : [ exclaims ] lola : they loved everything . and they had notes , but they showed me respect . it was like we were a team , like we were all in this together . kyle : new concept for a one - woman traveling restaurant . lola : uh , i did n't know how a collaboration was going to work , but now i do . with trust , respect , and actual friendship . kyle : this is how good business gets done . the bad ones , they 're another story altogether . lola : they gave me a contract . kyle : uh - huh . lola : so i 'm going to need a recommendation for a lawyer . kyle : done . lola : and , uh , they gave me a check . a really big one . like , enough of these , and i could buy my own ridiculously expensive purse -- not that i would . kyle : you earned it . lola : [ sighs ] it 's an advance , so technically , no , i have n't earned it . kyle : not true . lola : i ... kyle : that money 's for all the ingredients you bought to test recipes , for all the time you spent thinking and prepping and researching , for creating a menu that puts customers in seats and money in abby and devon 's pockets . so , yes , you earned it . because none of this would be happening without you . lola : they could have hired another chef . kyle : but they didn't . because you busted your butt to get this . and you 'll keep doing that , and there will be more checks , and you 'll earn those , too . you 'll pour your heart and soul into this , same as you do with your family and friends . watching you , the way you invest in things , it 's this wholehearted , pure , honest dedication . it 's what i love about you . [ sighs ] lola : thank you for always being so supportive . kyle : i 'm not . i am . but that 's not what i 'm doing here . what i 'm doing is ... [ chuckles ] ... saying i love you . i love you . lola : i love you , too . jack : kind of seems like the time has come . guilty or not does n't really matter . you 're going down . victor : mm - hmm . not gon na happen , jack . jack : i do n't think you 're gon na be able to seduce the prison doctor this time . you may have to live out your full sentence . victor : [ chuckles ] well , you enjoy your fantasies . jack : the d.a . and the police department are determined to nail you for this . they do n't have any other suspects . you 're the man . victor : hate to disappoint you , jack . they ai n't got nothing . not anything sufficient to convict me . jack : [ slaps table ] i - i wonder how many other people in here for life have had that very same thought ? victor : mm - hmm . jack : [ knocks on door ] thank you . victor : [ sighs ]
cane gets a letter from lily telling him that it is hard being in jail and that she is begining to lose hope as she counts the days for her release . lily feels disconnected from her family although having neil visit her every day has helped a little bit all of this makes cane feel more guilty for kissing victoria . mattie and charlie want to go to jt 's memorial service but canedoes n't want to see victoria and he tries to persude mattie and charlie this is n't a good idea but in the end mattie persudes him that they should go as a family .. ana decides to leave town leavi ng devon a letter to say good- bye . ana runs into nate who persudes her not to leave town without talking to devon in person . devon tells ana that he listened to her verson of the song again and it is better and has more feeling he says he has been trying not to feel anything that is why his version of the song had no feeling in it . devon asks ana to stay because he needs her help and he will do his best to be a better brother and boss . ana agrees to stay and devon invites her to participate in the tasting of lola 's food for the resturant . lola is nervous about the tsting with abby and devon but feels confident after a pep talk from kyle . devon abby and ana are impressed by the menus and lola 's ideas for the resturant they give her a contract and a large advance on her salary . lola later shares the good news with kyle and they tell each other `` i love you `` for the first time . jack goes to visit victor and once he hears the evidence against victor he admits that he may be innocent but christine really wants him in jail so even if he is innoicent he may go to jail anyway .
<s>[INST] [ previously_on ] kyle : devon and abby hired you because of what you bring to the table . so do n't second - guess yourself . christine : victor newman , you 're being charged with the murder of j.t . hellstrom . abby : we 're a family . we stick together . and i do n't care who you are . i am gon na do everything in my power to prove that my father is innocent . jill : whoever this woman is who kissed you right out of the blue , would you stay the hell away from her ? ana : if fen 's song takes off , it 's a victory for all of us . what i did today , i was only trying to help . devon : oh , i believe that . i think that you were trying to help yourself . ana : devon , no -- devon : this is the second time that you have shown me what comes first to you , and that 's your own ambition . so i do n't know if i can trust you . [ suitcase thuds ] [ suitcase wheels rattling ] abby : morning . jack : abby ! hey . did n't know you were home . abby : [ scoffs ] that was subtle . the way you could n't get off that site fast enough . jack : can i get you some coffee ? something to eat ? abby : that was about my father , was n't it ? jack : it was . abby : hm . what are they saying this time ? you know what ? do n't tell me . i already know . `` embattled . brooding . wealthy . `` [ chuckles ] they love writing about my father no matter what . he could be conquering the business world or accused of murder . does n't matter . as long as they get hits on their sites , they do n't care about the content . jack : is there any other news that 's not on the web ? abby : just the fact that he 's innocent . but no one wants to write about that , because it 's not salacious enough . jack : abby , the genoa city police department feel they have enough to move forward . abby : the pd loves to claim that they have a case when they don't . you know what ? i 'm not blaming rey , because someone clearly told him to focus on the newman family . jack : `` someone `` being the d.a . ? that is not christine 's m.o . abby : she loves putting my dad on trial . that 's what this is about . the fact that she never wins against him , not really . i mean , and even when she does , the celebration does n't last very long . she needs to face reality . okay ? there is no body , which means they ca n't connect a weapon . and if my dad hired someone for a hit , where is that person ? my dad is innocent . i saw him at the station . he was strong . and he has every right to be . because this is all gon na be ... going away , and he will be released soon . huh . only you do n't think that will ever happen . because you 've already decided that my father is guilty . victor : [ sighs ] kyle : lola ! ooh ! [ groans ] lola : not again . kyle : sorry . i did n't -- this happened already once today ? lola : twice . maybe more . i just -- [ sighs ] okay , on occasion -- almost never -- i have nerves . kyle : wow . lola : do n't act like it 's a shocking thing . [ kyle chuckles ] okay ? nerves are a thing that people have when things are stressful . kyle : mm - hmm . lola : it 's totally normal . kyle : this about your menu presentation with devon and abby ? lola : you know , i might pick all of this up to drop it again . kyle : [ sighs ] nate : ana ! what 's going on ? ana : uh , coffee fix . like you . nate : i mean with the bags . what 's going with the bags ? you going on a business trip ? or is devon sending you somewhere . ana : devon does n't want me around . so i think it 's time for me to go away again . and not come back . additional sponsorship abby : so , i guess this topic is off - limits for us -- my father 's innocence -- since you do n't think that 's possible . jack : abby , a jury is going to decide this , not me . abby : so you do think it 'll go to trial . jack : because victor was arrested , because he was denied bail . abby : okay . the whole bail thing has to do with my father 's wealth , not evidence . you and i both know that . jack : do i want to think that victor got rid of his ex - son - in - law ? no . abby , i was there . i was the one who found victor after j.t . attacked him . you and i both know your father is no stranger to revenge . given his history -- abby : history ? what history ? i 'm serious . yes , i know my father has done some horrible things in the past , but that does n't make him a murderer . and the fact that you could connect those two things and jump to that conclusion -- jack : what i think of victor is totally irrelevant . i care about you . abby : [ sighs ] jack : i want to look out for how this affects you and nikki and victoria . and everyone else . i do n't want to fight with you . i do n't want to add to your burden . i want to make things easier for you . but , honey , you ca n't make this whole day about that . even victor would agree with me . you have a life of your own -- a good life . how are things going with the restaurant ? abby : [ sighs ] it 's great , actually . it 's the only thing keeping me sane right now -- putting time and effort into something and watching it grow . jack : so , how soon can i bring my colleagues and clients to this great new place ? abby : well , first things first . lola is presenting her menu ideas today . you know what ? you should come with me . the food is bound to be amazing . jack : well , i would love to . duty calls . abby : oh , but this will be way more fun . jack : yeah , i 'm sure it will , but , uh , you 'll tell me all about it . abby : or i could make you wait until opening night . jack : now , that would be torturing me . honestly , i have something important to do , or i 'd be walking out the door with you . abby : all right . you 're missing out . bye , uncle jack . jack : bye . kyle : you know you did n't have to come to work here today . lola : did you notice the key word in that sentence ? `` work . `` that 's what that word means . so i was here , and now i 'm leaving . kyle : i just thought you were going to keep things chill before your meeting with devon and abby . lola : oh , this is me being chill -- working . if i were at home right now , i would be crazy by now . probably would have dropped way more things . kyle : so , other than nerves , how you feeling , champ ? lola : good . ready . kyle : mm - hmm . lola : excited . kyle : mm - hmm . lola : terrified . kyle : [ chuckles ] the food at your test trial was amazing . lola : yeah , but that 's only because you all ganged up on me and told me to stop playing it safe . & kyle : that was not ganging up . it was a friendly consensus that you need to be yourself . were we wrong ? lola : moving on . i printed up all of my different menus . maybe too many . does that make it seem like i ca n't make a decision ? or that i do n't have enough confidence ? too much . too much confidence . too much reasonable confidence . because that makes it seem like i 'm a show - off , and who would want to hire a show - off to run a restaurant ? i mean , no one . i would never -- i would never hire -- kyle : do you need to drop something again ? will that make you slow down ? lola : [ sighs ] i want this . kyle : i know . lola : more than i 've ever wanted anything . kyle : it 's close enough to touch , lola . lola : which means that it 's close enough to lose . kyle : you 're going to talk to devon and abby . not like someone asking for a job . you 're going to approach them , and make it clear you know exactly what you have to offer . this is everything you 've been working for . all you have to do now is lock it down . lola : lock it down . [ sighs ] ana : and for devon , it was this massive betrayal . a song ! he took it as this crime against our relationship , that i overstepped and he could n't trust me , and i just ... how do i stay around that ? how do i stay in his home or walk around the office knowing what he thinks about me ? nate : that 's not it . ana : it is . i heard him . you didn't . nate : i get why he 's upset . but he overreacted . by a mile . because , look , this is not about you . ana : it was me he was yelling at . maybe we just had too many years apart . nate : no , because i saw what it meant for him to have you there at christmas . and every other day . ana : all those other days , he 's putting me in my place , and telling me everything i 've done wrong . this is n't the first time it 's happened . devon does n't want me here . he does n't need my help . nate : that 's because he ca n't see it . which means he needs it even more . it 's hard . i get it . even when , you know , he pushes you away . but , listen , i 'm not trying to tell you to forget how you 're feeling , because it hurts . i can see that . nate : so let me help . okay ? i 'm right across the hall . come and talk to me . vent to me . yell at me . it 's fine . i 'm a big boy . i can take it . just do n't give up on devon . you guys can get through this . ana : i thought we had . i was wrong . nate : no , no , no , no , no . just ... one more try . even if it 's just to tell him why you want to go . just do it in person . devon : [ sighs ] ana ! ana ? great news , liberty mutual customizes- mr. newman , you got a visitor . victor : who is it ? i do n't know . devon : hey . i thought you left for good . ana : not yet . not like that . it would n't be right . nate helped me see that . devon : thank you , man . i mean it . um ... before you go , if you still want to go , i need to tell you something . i do n't know what i 'm doing . most of the time , i think that i 'm doing right by my job and by my family , and i think that i have every situation under control , and then something like this happens , and it makes me realize i do n't know anything at all . when you played me your version of fen 's song yesterday , i flipped out . and i do n't know why i reacted that way . i do n't know why i said the things that i said to you . but i should n't have , because that 's not how i feel . i know you , and i trust you . and [ sighs ] maybe you 're right when you said that the song needed more feeling than what i could give it . and i think that maybe that 's because , most of the time , i 'm trying not to feel anything at all . um ... i 'm not looking for a free pass or anything like that , but i just -- i do n't want you to feel like you have to walk on eggshells when you 're around me 'cause you think i 'm gon na flip out again . um ... so , i 'm asking if you will stay , here and at hamilton- winters . because i promise you that i will be a better brother . if you already feel like you need to go , though , i understa -- ana : i 'm not going anywhere . devon : are you sure ? ana : i said so . nate : take `` yes `` as an answer , buddy . devon : you 're right sometimes . nate : [ scoffs ] `` sometimes `` ? all the time ? devon : [ chuckles ] i 'm gon na take your bags upstairs before you change your mind . ana : [ chuckles ] devon : but before i do , i want you to have this . ana : what 's this ? devon : well , i got it for you before i found your note , because i knew i was a jerk before you were gon na take off . i just did n't know how big of a jerk . but i hope that you like it . this is our home now . so i figured that we should have pictures of us . ana : i love it . devon : yeah ? ana : thank you . devon : ' course . cane : [ sighs ] [ sighs ] lily : dear cane , it made sense to write since the line for the phone was so long today . and lately our calls have been a little strained . [ bottles clank ] [ air hisses ] cane : [ sighs ] lily : which is to be expected . people listening , other voices cutting in . sometimes i have so much to say to you , but the words never come out . at least , not the words i 'm looking for . and sometimes the words i need to hear . i do n't even know what i need to hear , but i know it 's not the same as face- to - face . it 's helped having dad close - by . he 's starting to understand what it 's really like here . not that anyone really can unless you live it . that 's why you have no choice but to really get to know the women here , get invested in each other 's lives , talk about kids and relationships , problems and priorities . and once in a while , plans . but those are trickier . you need future plans to get through the hours here . but then again , sometimes it feels like tempting fate . as if pushing for something is a way to make sure it never actually comes true . our phone calls are hard for me sometimes . because it 's the opposite of how my conversations are here day - to - day . you and i talk about the past and the future , but we avoid the now . and i know sometimes that 's my fault . i live this life . so talking about it just feels like more of the same . [ scoffs ] i do n't know what i 'm trying to say . it does n't get easier here , but it does become more normal . and that 's scary in itself . like i 'm losing who i was , and she 's not coming back . i 'm sorry . this is n't what you want to read . thank you for looking out for the kids , and being the best father possible . i 'm grateful they have you . my love to you all . lily . cane : [ sighs ] victor : [ chuckles ] to most , he 's phil mickelson ... victor : i 'll be damned . is that how you spend your time now , instead of leading jabot ? oh , i forgot . you 're working for my boy now , are n't you ? and an outsider is running jabot ? company your father built ? jack : i came to check on you . an act of charity . victor : really ? how kind of you . did you think you 'd find me here depressed and despondent ? jack : oh , no , no , no . i assume if anyone knows the ropes , it 's you . i just wanted to put your mind at ease . victor : [ chuckles ] oh , yeah ? how 's that ? jack : well , we 're both patriarchs of our respective families , and i know how difficult it must be to not be at home with the people that you love . but your family , of course , has , at times , been my family . i have a relationship with nikki . my connection with nicholas and victoria , especially abby . just rest assured , i will look out for them no matter how long you 're ... away . victor : ohh . that is so kind of you , jack . my god . you 're offering to take care of my family while i 'm here , right ? got news for you . they 're newmans . they do n't need anyone 's help . besides ... i run things from in here . including my business . so you know what you can do with your generous offer , right ? devon : i read about victor . i 'm sorry to hear about all that stuff . abby : thanks . yeah , um ... well , it 's making me crazy thinking about him being locked up . and everything they 're saying about him and j.t . , none of it is true . devon : you know we could have postponed today if you wanted to . it 's totally fine . abby : no , lola is ready . and i do n't want that building i bought sitting empty any longer than it needs to . we need to start making money . devon : [ chuckles ] ana : i 'm gon na clear out before the chef arrives . devon : no , you 're not . you were here when we decided to hire lola , and i want you here now . i want to get your opinion on all the recipes . ana : well , all right , then . abby : [ chuckles ] ana : but full disclosure -- i think she 's a genius . and i did n't have breakfast , so do n't try to fight me for the last bite of anything . [ devon and abby laugh ] [ doorbell rings ] devon : oh . ana : ah , my new favorite sound . devon : oh , my gosh . why do you act like i lock the fridge ? ana : [ whispers ] he locks the fridge . [ abby laughs ] devon : all right . hey , hey ! lola : hi . devon : it 's the woman of the hour . you bring enough stuff ? lola : [ chuckles ] devon : let me help you out , please . lola : thank you . devon : yeah . abby : we are all so excited for today . lola : me too . so , i will head into the kitchen in a sec , and we will sort through some of the dishes that i think will set the style and tone for our new restaurant . and even if it 's a classic dish , we will have our own personal spin to it . abby : i love that . 'cause , yeah , we -- we want to be distinctive and stand out . we do n't want to follow any trends . devon : that 's right . we do n't do that . we set the trends . abby : mm - hmm . lola : and if there 's a dish that you do n't like , that you think does n't fit -- abby : you have good instincts , lola . lola : i know . that 's what i was just going to say . abby : [ chuckles ] lola : that before we cross anything off the list , you give me a chance to explain why i think it works with the overall concept . devon : for sure , yeah . sounds good to me . lola : i am so glad . i really want this . i want this chance . and these dishes , this menu , it speaks to me . it speaks for me . and , honestly , i think we could really have something special here . abby : do we even deserve you ? i 'm not convinced that we do . devon : she just keeps setting the bar . we just have to meet it . that 's all . lola : okay . so , i 'm going to get started . and you will need these ... abby : thank you . lola : ... so you know what 's coming . devon : okay . [ murmurs inaudibly ] abby : mm - hmm . [ sighs ] cane : hey ! how was your day ? you guys hungry ? mattie : no . charlie : uh , kind of . cane : [ sighs ] charlie : hey , um ... can we talk to you about something ? cane : um ... sure . yeah . mattie : we heard from reed , and he 's holding a memorial service for his dad tomorrow at their house . it 's nothing big , but he invited us specifically , and i think we should go be there for him . all three of us . cane : that 's not a good idea . jardiance asked : `` the young and the restless `` will continue . cane : look , it 's just , given what happened recently , i do n't think it 's a good time to go to reed 's house , okay ? mattie : you told me it 's handled . reed 's grandmother 's okay , is n't she ? i mean , yeah , it 's horrible , and it 's scary , but the people who need to know do now . cane : but that does n't mean you need to rub it in their face , all right ? and given the reason that reed was driving is because -- charlie : i know . it 's my fault . cane : all right . charlie : but reed asked us to come . he would n't do that for no reason . mattie : yeah , reed 's dad is dead . he 's trying to process it . is n't this a healthy way to deal with it ? cane : all right , listen , i -- charlie : plus his grandfather 's in jail ? i - i mean , dad , he needs all the help and support he can get . cane : okay . listen , i understand this , all right , but victoria 's part of this , and it 's her ex - husband that died , and it 's her house , and it 's her family -- mattie : dad , what are you saying ? charlie : are you trying to say reed 's mom does n't want us there ? lola : so , i tried to select dishes that would work all day . certain breakfast foods that you can eat late - night with a beer -- or three , and a ride home . [ abby chuckles ] and for dinner , i also selected small dishes , because that 's the whole point , right ? abby : mm - hmm . lola : to celebrate and share with your loved ones . but one thing that i have noticed is that , when you have a bigger plate , and the server brings it into the dining room , other diners notice . they lean over their table , and they ask what they 're holding , and then they start a conversation , and then everyone 's speaking about our food in our restaurant , and nobody is a stranger . and i think that 's the mood that we want to set . or maybe i 'm just saying what i think and not what you want , and maybe we -- abby : i love your passion for this , lola . devon : so do i . abby : mm - hmm . devon : and i love your food . ana : yeah , not one miss in all of this . the consistency is amazing . devon : there 's some pricing suggestions that are a little off , but aside from that , it 's ... lola : too high ? devon : no , it 's too low . i think people will pay good money for this kind of food . lola : but , uh , with all due respect to your profit margin , i do n't want to price people out . abby : we won't . ever . there 's options on the menu for regular meals or special date - night entrees . devon : absolutely . and you 're right about the shared plates , but we also want to have smaller dishes for the bar menu , too , right ? abby : agreed . mm - hmm . lola : so , is there anything that you do n't like that we -- you think we should take out ? because i really put in a lot of thought to every single thing , the ingredients and the heat level -- abby : it shows . these dishes are solid . [ chuckles ] lola : [ sighs ] really ? devon : yes , really . it 's like my associate said -- there 's not a miss in the bunch here . ana : and that 's not just 'cause i 'm your biggest fan . lola : really ? i do n't have to defend any dishes ? because i can . i came prepared . devon : i can see that . abby : look , i know all this can be intimidating . it is for me , too . i mean , of all the businesses i 've been a part of , i 've never opened a restaurant before . but we are all doing what we do best , and this is going to work . lola : it 's really going to work , is n't it ? okay . i will go pack up . devon : hang on . there is one more thing that we need to discuss , 'cause we ca n't really move forward until it 's settled . jack : the same place they kept me when they accused me of trying to kill you last year . victor : instead , you rummaged through my office , and you stole my belongings , did n't you ? jack : turns out it was j.t . all along , and now here you are , accused of killing him . i guess the long arm of the law finally has the guilty party . victor : oh , yeah ? you think so ? jack : oh , i - i do n't judge . victor : mm . jack : i mean , i do n't know the whole story . how could i ? but do i think you killed him ? [ victor chuckles ] ab - so - lutely . victor : of course you do . but then , you know , you 're wrong , and who gives a damn what you think ? jack : now , i 'm not saying that j.t . did n't provoke you . i mean , he made an attempt on your life not once , but twice . betrayed victoria to infiltrate your company . i do n't know which infuriated you more -- him tricking your daughter or him playing you so well to your face . you invite him into your home , you give him a job . you have no idea what he 's up to . i know how much you pride yourself on looking into the hearts of men and seeing the evil that lurks there . i do n't know . with j.t . , maybe your radar was on the fritz . that had to sting . my sympathies to michael . he has to try to win this case . i mean , you 're victor newman , standing means and motive . victor : michael baldwin will not represent me . jack : oh , you 're seeking outside counsel ? victor : no one will represent me . i refuse to play the d.a . 's game . jack : ah , there it is . that majestic ego that blots out the sun . and logic and reason . seriously . `` it was n't me `` is your whole defense ? so much for looking out for your family . hell , you wo n't even look out for yourself . your insurance rates skyrocket after a scratch so small abby : your contract . lola : so it 's official . [ sighs ] lola : wow . so many words . devon : [ chuckles ] abby : it 's all standard , but you probably should have a lawyer take a look at it . devon : yeah . it 's all a part of business , though . we all need to feel protected , and you need to be assured that you 're comfortable with every part of the deal . ana : and one thing i did n't realize before i got to lp -- it 's okay to go back and forth over a deal . fine - tune it . that 's how this works . devon : absolutely . she 's right . abby : and one last detail . lola : wait , what ? it 's a check . with zeroes . but we have n't even opened yet . abby : it 's an advance . a retainer . once we 're up and running , you 'll get a salary . but until then , we want to make sure you 're happy . lola : this is too much . devon : lola , i 'm gon na say something to you . you need to hear me , okay ? it 's not too much . abby : devon is right . your talent is worth that and more . hey , we 're all gon na profit from this , anyway , so , out of friendship and respect , shut up and enjoy it . [ laughter ] cane : listen , you guys are good kids , all right , and you have a good heart , and you 're good friends , and of course victoria would want you there for reed , all right ? she would n't hold anything against you . but i 'm a different story , here . charlie : what , do you think she still has something against you ? cane : look , we talked after the accident , all right , and still there 's a lot of things she holds me responsible for -- things that went wrong in the past , all right ? and ... she 's not wrong . mattie : okay , i get that . but she 's not about to turn you away from a memorial service . you and mr . hellstrom were friends . i do n't know why reed 's mom would freak out about having you there . cane : i 'm not saying that she 's gon na freak out . i was just saying -- mattie : mom would go . cane : all right . mattie : if mom was here , all four of us would go as a family , and you would n't think twice . cane : all right , if your mom was here , there 'd be a lot of things that would be different . charlie : so , what , all of a sudden we 're not a family ? cane : of course we 're a family . mattie : we can go without you , but it 's weird . and i think it 's hurtful for you to stay away . the last thing i want to do is make reed or anyone else feel worse at a time like this . please , dad . cane : okay . okay . we 'll go as a family . victor : i 'm sure there are a lot of people who would delight in me taking the fall for this murder to get me out of the way . you might be one of them . jack : [ scoffs ] me ? victor : mm . jack : i avenged you ? victor : mm . jack : after all the wonderful things you have done for me ? i killed your would - be murderer . victor : mm . that a confession ? i 'll call the guards . jack : oh , sorry to dash your very limited hopes , but , no , it was n't me . nice try , though . victor : mm . you know i have quite a few enemies . you 're not the only one . jack : oh , yeah . i know . you have more than your share of enemies . maybe someone did work very hard to set you up . or maybe the answer 's a whole lot simpler -- you murdered j.t . victor : you know i hate his guts , and i have reason to after what he has done to victoria , but i would n't kill him in cold blood . i would n't do that to his son , and i would n't do that to victoria . and besides , do you really think i would be so stupid as to plant a gun and a blood - stained shirt in my stables ? jack : that 's the only evidence the police have against you ? victor : whoever the unnamed enemy of mine is , he or she is not very bright , are they ? jack : wow . how 'bout that ? you could be telling the truth . victor : how about that , jack ? devon : so , i have this assistant manager at the club who 's looking to move on to bigger and better things , and she 's young and hungry , and has some very big ideas . ana : i 'm forwarding you her contact information . abby : perfect . thank you . yeah , i will set up a meeting for her and lola . what about that , um -- that bartender ? the crazy one you were telling me about ? devon : yeah . that guy , he hosts private parties and has drink - tasting menus . abby : that 's great . that 's the vibe we 're looking for . devon : right ? abby : yeah . devon : ana , would you -- ana : i 'll set up a tasting . devon : thank you very much . abby : this is gon na be good . devon : it 's gon na be great . abby : [ chuckles ] remind me again why it took us so long to work together . devon : you know , that 's a very good question . i have no idea . i think we were just waiting for the right moment . abby : and here it is . you look ... you look good . you look like yourself , you know what i mean ? devon : thank you . ana : it 's because of you and this project . abby : no , i think it 's because of you . friends and partners are great , but family is special . and my family forgets that on a regular basis . you better not . devon : oh , you have my word . kyle : come in , come in . how was it ? i need details . lola : i could n't , uh ... i just needed this to be in person . kyle : so ... i should be tense and worried because you 're acting weird , but ... it was great , was n't it ? lola : it was incredible . kyle : [ exclaims ] lola : they loved everything . and they had notes , but they showed me respect . it was like we were a team , like we were all in this together . kyle : new concept for a one - woman traveling restaurant . lola : uh , i did n't know how a collaboration was going to work , but now i do . with trust , respect , and actual friendship . kyle : this is how good business gets done . the bad ones , they 're another story altogether . lola : they gave me a contract . kyle : uh - huh . lola : so i 'm going to need a recommendation for a lawyer . kyle : done . lola : and , uh , they gave me a check . a really big one . like , enough of these , and i could buy my own ridiculously expensive purse -- not that i would . kyle : you earned it . lola : [ sighs ] it 's an advance , so technically , no , i have n't earned it . kyle : not true . lola : i ... kyle : that money 's for all the ingredients you bought to test recipes , for all the time you spent thinking and prepping and researching , for creating a menu that puts customers in seats and money in abby and devon 's pockets . so , yes , you earned it . because none of this would be happening without you . lola : they could have hired another chef . kyle : but they didn't . because you busted your butt to get this . and you 'll keep doing that , and there will be more checks , and you 'll earn those , too . you 'll pour your heart and soul into this , same as you do with your family and friends . watching you , the way you invest in things , it 's this wholehearted , pure , honest dedication . it 's what i love about you . [ sighs ] lola : thank you for always being so supportive . kyle : i 'm not . i am . but that 's not what i 'm doing here . what i 'm doing is ... [ chuckles ] ... saying i love you . i love you . lola : i love you , too . jack : kind of seems like the time has come . guilty or not does n't really matter . you 're going down . victor : mm - hmm . not gon na happen , jack . jack : i do n't think you 're gon na be able to seduce the prison doctor this time . you may have to live out your full sentence . victor : [ chuckles ] well , you enjoy your fantasies . jack : the d.a . and the police department are determined to nail you for this . they do n't have any other suspects . you 're the man . victor : hate to disappoint you , jack . they ai n't got nothing . not anything sufficient to convict me . jack : [ slaps table ] i - i wonder how many other people in here for life have had that very same thought ? victor : mm - hmm . jack : [ knocks on door ] thank you . victor : [ sighs ]Summarize.[/INST]cane gets a letter from lily telling him that it is hard being in jail and that she is begining to lose hope as she counts the days for her release . lily feels disconnected from her family although having neil visit her every day has helped a little bit all of this makes cane feel more guilty for kissing victoria . mattie and charlie want to go to jt 's memorial service but canedoes n't want to see victoria and he tries to persude mattie and charlie this is n't a good idea but in the end mattie persudes him that they should go as a family .. ana decides to leave town leavi ng devon a letter to say good- bye . ana runs into nate who persudes her not to leave town without talking to devon in person . devon tells ana that he listened to her verson of the song again and it is better and has more feeling he says he has been trying not to feel anything that is why his version of the song had no feeling in it . devon asks ana to stay because he needs her help and he will do his best to be a better brother and boss . ana agrees to stay and devon invites her to participate in the tasting of lola 's food for the resturant . lola is nervous about the tsting with abby and devon but feels confident after a pep talk from kyle . devon abby and ana are impressed by the menus and lola 's ideas for the resturant they give her a contract and a large advance on her salary . lola later shares the good news with kyle and they tell each other `` i love you `` for the first time . jack goes to visit victor and once he hears the evidence against victor he admits that he may be innocent but christine really wants him in jail so even if he is innoicent he may go to jail anyway .</s>

[ scene_break ] clarke : sally , you 've got some explaining to do . have you seen this new press release ? sally : yea , so . we all just agreed we were going to step up public relations efforts . clarke : yea , well nobody agreed to this . sally : agreed to what ? what 's the problem ? it says spectra by thorne forrester . clarke : look at the thorne forrester part . sally : yea , so ? clarke : so well , it 's big , it 's bold , it 's bigger than spectra , and the type font is the same as forrester creations . sally : gee i did n't notice . clarke : you did n't notice , it jumps right out at ya sally . i know what you 're up to and i got ta tell ya one thing , you are a genius . sally : hmm yea well , i am are n't i . a little change of font here . a little change of font there and uh , we will not only going to catch the public 's eye we will catch their wallets too . clarke : and our lumps of coal in our stocking will be turned into diamonds . sally : the crowned jewels . that 's what we got here bucky . we are going to de- thrown king eric and queen stephanie and we are going to rule in their place .

[ scene_break ] clarke : sally , you 've got some explaining to do . have you seen this new press release ? sally : yea , so . we all just agreed we were going to step up public relations efforts . clarke : yea , well nobody agreed to this . sally : agreed to what ? what 's the problem ? it says spectra by thorne forrester . clarke : look at the thorne forrester part . sally : yea , so ? clarke : so well , it 's big , it 's bold , it 's bigger than spectra , and the type font is the same as forrester creations . sally : gee i did n't notice . clarke : you did n't notice , it jumps right out at ya sally . i know what you 're up to and i got ta tell ya one thing , you are a genius . sally : hmm yea well , i am are n't i . a little change of font here . a little change of font there and uh , we will not only going to catch the public 's eye we will catch their wallets too . clarke : and our lumps of coal in our stocking will be turned into diamonds . sally : the crowned jewels . that 's what we got here bucky . we are going to de- thrown king eric and queen stephanie and we are going to rule in their place .

brady : you do realize i 'm gon na get this framed , right ? madison : it 's not signed . you have no proof it 's from me . brady : ah , but i have the satisfaction of knowing it , though , do n't i ? madison : damn . brady : does this mean you 're gon na be staying in town ? madison : um ... [ clears throat ] i , uh ... i got upset ... this morning . i let my emotions get the best of me . now that my head is clear , i can see that keeping mad world 's headquarters here in salem is what 's best for the company . i 'm not gon na let kate run me out of town . brady : good . i would have hated to have seen you go , personally ... especially when things are getting so interesting around here . jennifer : [ sighs ] okay . he 'll be here . is that him ? hope : oh , what are you doing ? jennifer : oh , hi . hope : what are you doing ? i thought you -- oh , bo , thanks for -- jennifer : hi . hope : i did n't think you were gon na be home , otherwise we would have rung the bell . wait a second -- were n't you supposed to be out on a date tonight with daniel ? jennifer : yeah , that was the plan , but either he 's late , or he stood me up . i ca n't get ahold of him . bo : stood you up ? that does n't sound like daniel . i 'm sure , you know , he had an empital or -- jennifer : yeah , or he 's just tired of this whole situation with jack , and i ca n't blame him . you know , it 's a rotten situation . hope : no , still , if he was going to cancel , i 'm sure he would have picked up the phone and called you . jennifer : well , you know , whatever . i mean , if he does n't show up , i can help you finish going through gram 's things , and we can figure out what this secret mystery is to the bank account . it 's fine . [ knock at door ] hope : oh ! bo : well , there you go . hope : looks like yoby the bell , or the doc . okay , where should we start ? jennifer : hi . daniel : hey . wow . i 'm sorry -- jennifer : hi . daniel : hi . i 'm sorry i 'm late . i just -- i wanted to call , but i left my phone at home and -- jennifer : no , it 's okay . it 's all right -- i 'm just so glad you 're here . i thought -- i thought maybe you 'd given up on me . daniel : ah , no . never . jennifer : good . good . good . jack : [ sighs ] marlena : hey , jack . jack : hey . marlena : i got your voice mail . i usually charge people when they cancel in fewer than 24 hours . jack : how did you know i was here ? marlena : i heard caroline barking orders in the background when i got your voice mail . jack : you missed your calling . you should have been a detective . marlena : we 're very much alike . we 're both trying to get at the motivation for people 's behavior . jack : oh . well , you see , um ... i - i 'm really not in the mood to have my head shrunk tonight . so if you do n't mind , please , just leave me in peace . daniel : my gosh . jennifer : thank you . bo : okay , mrs. kravitz , did n't anyone ever tell you it 's impolite to eavesdrop ? hope : i know , i 'm just worried about jen , and i ca n't hear anything with you talking . bo : yeah , you can talk to her later . use some of your sleuthing skills to help solve mrs. h 's secret . hope : you know , i really do think that we 're getting closer , but you know what ? i have a great idea . let 's go get some more boxes . come on . bo : more box -- i know what you 're up to . hope : come on , and walk slowly . shh , stop talking . i ca n't hear . bo : [ whistles ] madison : i want to thank you for stopping me from making a huge mistake . i 've never -- never had anyone look out for me like that . it 's kind of nice . brady : well , you know , even a successful independent woman can use a little bit of input once in a while . madison : do n't make a habit of it . brady : i hear you loud and clear . i understand , but as the owner of your company , i to ask you what your next move is . madison : well , if i 'm gon na keep salem as my base of operations , i need to cut into kate 's local market share . brady : i totally agree . madison : i 'm gon na have to find some way to make the locals view mad world as a homegrown company . brady : and how do you intend to do that ? madison : i have a few ideas . daniel : i 'm really sorry about postponing our date the other night . i just -- i do n't know . i needed a little time to get my head screwed on straight . jennifer : no , i understand . you have so much going on . you know , finding out that you 're maggie 's son and not to mention the whole seesaw that we 've been on . i mean , i would n't even blame you if you blew me off . daniel : well , that 's not really gon na happen , which brings me to the reason why i 'm late . i , um ... i scored us , uh , two tickets to a sold - out symphony tonight . jennifer : [ gasps ] you did ? that is so sweet . daniel : yeah , i hear you like surprises . i heard that somewhere . jennifer : i do . daniel : i know you do . jennifer : i ca n't believe you went to all that trouble . daniel : well , i like trouble . you know what else i like ? seeing this smile right here . jennifer : i like you . daniel : i like you . jack : oh , i thought you were gon na leave me in peace . marlena : no . i 'm giving you time to come up with an appropriate apology . jack : yes , right . , uh , i am sorry . jennifer 's on a date with daniel tonight , and it 's put me in a foul mood . look , tonight i 'm really not in the mood to face up to any of my demons . i 'd say just let them all lie , bury 'em , and let 's learn to peacefully coexist . marlena : is n't that what you 've been trying to do since you came back to salem ? how 's that working for you ? jack : well , i 've come up with some survival strategies . marlena : you 're burning up a bar tab , i see . jack ... being held captive in afghanistan is unspeakably traumatizing . but unless you deal with that , you wo n't get past it . you will not find any peace . jack : i 'm trying . marlena : how ? jack : [ chuckles ] marlena : look , i know it 's awfully hard to talk about what you went through . you 've taken the first step . you made the appointment . why did n't you follow up ? jack : well , like the saying goes , liquor is quicker and cheaper , and , come on , you shrinks charge a fortune . marlena : yeah . so it 's a home remedy . you 're gon na self - medicate with too much alcohol . jack : whatever helps me find a moment 's relief . marlena : until when ? until you just black out ? jack : if i 'm lucky . marlena : so you 've decided that running away from your problems will be a little bit easier for you than solving them , hmm ? jack : well , jennifer and everyone else seems to think that 's what i do best . so i say stick with what you know . toothpaste is not formulated for cleaning dentures , brady : people can come all around the world and see how mad world products are made . they can come in , they can test them , they can sample them , they can take them home . think ben & jerry 's vermont factory just with cosmetics , not with ice cream . madison : i like it . that would certainly outshine kate 's puny product shelf at quinn 's dinky day spa . brady : mm - hmm . exactly . but tell me about your ideas . madison : you know , our ideas are remarkably similar . brady : how about that ? see , great minds think alike . i actually had research put together some prelim numbers , and i 'm gon na show them to you . and , madison ... i 'm very glad that we 're , uh ... on the same page about this . madison : absolutely . of course , it never hurts to have a backup plan . marlena : so jennifer thinks that you run away from your problems . what do you think ? jack : i can see how she could see it that way . i think i tend to be impulsive , and my impulses say , `` avoid , avoid , avoid . `` marlena : avoid , avoid what ? jack : ah , any emotions that make me feel uncomfortable . i mean , why go there , right ? marlena : hmm . so then your emotions end up getting pushed out even farther . jack : yeah . out of sight , out of mind . that 's my motto . that 's what i always say . marlena : do you think that 's a healthy way to handle your problems ? jack : in my own defense , it 's not like i had really healthy role models for healthy adult behavior . marlena : what do you mean ? jack : well , i mean , putting aside my biological father , who was a real treat who used to beat his family , let 's look at my -- the man who raised me , harper deveraux . controlling senator by day , knife - wielding serial killer by night . marlena : were you close to jack : well , i tried to be . i mean , i thought i was . i used to look up to him , wanted to be like him , admired him . marlena : be like him how ? jack : well , you know , he was always in control of everything . he always ... nothing shook him -- nothing . and then to find out that he was how he was and how he really dealt with things ... marlena : that must have been the betrayal of a lifelong trust . jack : so you 're saying my tendency to run away from people that i love or care about started with him ? i mean , what , i was scared ? marlena : were you ? of what ? jack : i -- of , uh -- well , i do n't know -- that i would let them down again . or ... marlena : or ? or what ? jack : this is silly . marlena : none of it 's silly , jack -- none of it . jack : what if -- what if they let me down ? hmm ? what if they let me down ? what if they were n't -- what if they were n't who i thought they were , huh ? see , it 's ridiculous , see ? marlena : no , it 's not . i think it 's incredibly perceptive . daniel : something like that . jennifer : something like that . bo : [ clears throat ] jennifer : oh , hey . hope : hey , guys . jennifer : guess what . hope : what ? jennifer : daniel got tickets to the symphony . we 're on our way out . hope : oh , that 's great . have a great time . jennifer : thank you . wait . why more boxes ? i thought we 'd gone through these at least three times . hope : so did we . bo : a dozen times . daniel : well , any luck yet ? bo : no , things have actually gotten more complicated . we found this picture of a baby that nobody recognizes and this paperweight , which was a gift from stefano to mrs. h . daniel : why would stefano give alice horton a gift ? hope : we have absolutely no idea , but i tried asking him . daniel : ooh , let me guess -- you did n't get very far . hope : hmm , he tried to get me to give up . can you imagine ? bo : you 'd think the man would learn by now . hope : anyway , we figure that the answers have got to be in these boxes somewhere . daniel : wow , this is a lot of stuff here . jennifer : yeah , well , gram -- she loved to hold on to all of her things . anyway , i 'm sorry we have to bail . i wish we could stick around and see what else gram 's left bo : that 's okay . daniel : uh , can ... hope : yeah , sure . sorry . excuse me , guys . sorry , daniel . daniel : jen , you know , it 's okay if we go to the symphony another night . it 's fine with me . jennifer : uh ... daniel : hey , you know what ? we can stay here and help out . jennifer : no , what about our date ? daniel : you know what we 'll do -- we 'll make it a double date . we 'll order some food , open some wine . jennifer : no , but you went to so much trouble to get these tickets . daniel : i would enjoy a date with you where i can look at you and i can talk to you , not the violins in the background . jennifer : are you sure ? daniel : i 'm pretty sure . i could be convinced -- maybe even more sure . jennifer : maybe i could convince you . daniel : yeah . jennifer : just a little . bo : [ whistles ] jennifer : so wonderful . thank you for being so understanding . daniel : you know what ? so , anyway , what do we do first ? bo : ay , somebody said something about ordering out for food . i 'm starving . daniel : that would be me . hope : you 're always starving . daniel : that would also be me . okay , where are the menus ? jennifer : uh , kitchen , top drawer , left of the stove . daniel : got it . to the kitchen . hope : do n't forget about dessert . bo : yeah , dessert . hope : dessert . bo : chinese , pizza . hope : chinese pizza ? jennifer : oh , no . hope : pretty dreamy , huh ? jennifer : oh , dreamy . hope : dreamy . jennifer : dreamy . dreamy . [ both chuckle ] jack : you tricked me . marlena : oh . jack : you used your wily doctor ways to get me to spill my guts . marlena : no . you wanted to talk . you just were n't sure where to start . jack : no , i guess not . but , uh , if you 're gon na insist i keep my appointment ... maybe we should pick someplace a little less public . marlena : all right . what about the town house ? jack : no , no , i - i could n't do that . i 'm sorry . marlena : i 'm not gon na ask you to get on the sofa . i just do n't have an office anywhere yet , and i can promise , it will be quiet and peaceful . daniel : my mother ... maggie -- in all these pictures , she 's in -- she 's in crutches . was it because of the m.g . ? hope : oh , no , no , no , no , no . daniel : what -- what happened to her ? jennifer : she was in a horrible car accident when she was a young girl , and that 's what killed both of her parents . daniel : she did n't mention that to me . hope : yeah , after that accident , she closed herself off from the rest of the world for , i 'd say , a pretty long time . when uncle mickey met her , she was living alone on a remote farm . daniel : how did she manage ? bo : well , from all the stories , i heard that she hired men to tend the fields and the livestock , and she pretty much did everything else . daniel : really ? that 's remarkable . hope : nope , that 's maggie . jennifer : yeah . daniel : wow , and i thought i knew her so well . man . jennifer : but , you know , there 's probably so many things that she still does n't know about you . daniel : oh , me ? oh , yeah , yeah , i 'm an open book , right ? jennifer : hey . i 'm , uh -- i 'm really glad that you got to spend thanksgiving together . daniel : mm - hmm . jennifer : hey ... i missed you . daniel : i missed you . yeah . i know i have n't really , um , warmed up to the idea that maggie 's my mother . jennifer : yeah , but that 's completely understandable . daniel : yeah , but i am grateful , you know , more and more every day , as a matter of fact . and , uh , i really would n't have done it without these two right here -- bo and hope . um , yeah , you know , you guys -- i 'm not even sure if i properly thanked you or even how to say -- hope : no , no , no , daniel , you do n't need to thank us . it was really gran . she 's the one who did all the hard work tracking you down . daniel : yeah . well , if there 's anything i can do to return the favor , perhaps helping you uncover more of these secrets here . hope : thank you . bo : that 'd be good . jennifer : here , hope , take a look at these . these were all in this box . did you already look through these ? hope : some of them . daniel : uh - oh , we got some wedding pictures in here . jennifer : uh - oh . daniel : yeah , oh , yeah . jennifer : oh , boy . daniel : there 's maggie and mickey . wow , oh , my goodness , here 's bo and hope . bo : oh , yeah , which wedding ? that 's a legitimate question . hope : i know . well , they were all wonderful . he 's right . daniel : oh ... and , uh ... jennifer : what ? what is it ? daniel : it 's you ... and jack . madison : hey , i 'm getting kind of hungry . brady : mm - hmm . madison : do you want to grab a bite ? my treat . brady : excuse me ? madison : what ? you do n't like when women pay ? brady : actually , no , i do n't like that . call me old - fashioned , but , no , i like to hold car doors . i like to pay -- those kinds of things . madison : well , you sign my paychecks , so technically you 're always buying . let 's go . brady : wait . hold on a sec . madison , i 'm very , very confused right now . okay , you said to me , if i recall , `` brady , i do n't like to socialize with business partners . `` as a matter of fact , you said that 's the one rule that you never break . madison : well , i 'm in the mood to break a few rules tonight . care you join me ? brady : oh , oh , come on . that 's unbelievable . that 's the best dessert they have in town . madison : mm - mm . no way . mine is delicious . oh , my gosh , this is incredible . who would have thought you could get such good pineapple upside - down cake in salem at this time of the year ? brady : see , i told you salem -- you know , it just has a few things that you ca n't find anywhere else in the world . madison : a few . do you want to try mine ? brady : yeah , i want to try yours . really ? we 're gon na do this ? okay . give me the bite . madison : i will . i wo n't do it . brady : people are watching . madison : i 'm sorry . brady : oh , thank you . you got most of it on the corner of my -- thank you . madison : it 's too good . brady : yeah , you 're right , it 's pretty incredible . that 's good . madison : mm - hmm . brady : that 's really good . madison : it killed you to admit that , did n't it ? brady : yeah , it did , because i think my dessert is pretty good , too . you 're gon na try some of this coconut mousse . coconut mousse . come on . oh . i 'm sorry . my bad . i 'm not gon na -- ahh ! madison : brady black , i hate you . brady : come on , no , you do n't . here you go . hmm , how about that ? yeah ? madison : it 's okay . brady : it 's ok -- it 's okay ? it 's incredible . madison : it 's very good . i like it . brady : do you want to share ? of course , we 'll share both desserts . madison : can we share ? brady : it 's very appropriately tropical right now , do n't you think -- the pineapple and the coconut ? madison : what are you talking about ? it 's winter . brady : exactly . so when you want to picture yourself on a hawaiian beach or something , you can just transport your mind by thinking about this dessert . madison : hmm . brady : mm - hmm . hey , pick up your glass . i 'd like to propose a toast ... to breaking a few rules once in a while . madison : i will definitely drink to that . brady : and to the power of the subconscious . jennifer : i can not believe that daniel saw a picture of jack and i getting married . hope : oh , i would n't worry about that . he knows you were married to jack . it 's no -- i think he took it in stride . jennifer : i know . you know what i hate ? i hate that i did n't have thanksgiving with him . i hate that i have these two men on a string impatiently waiting for me to make up my mind . hope : well , uh , given that the two men are daniel and jack , i 'd have to say that i bet a lot of women would love to be in your shoes . jennifer : i understand that , but i am not enjoying one minute of this . hope : oh , cuz , i know . i know that you hate the idea of breaking anyone 's heart . are you any closer to a decision ? jennifer : no , no . i thought -- i thought i would be through this by now , and i am as confused as ever . hope : i 'm sorry . i definitely do n't envy you right now . jennifer : i wish i could just flip a coin , you know . you 're so lucky , because you 've always known that bo is the man for you . hope : but ... we have definitely had our ups and downs , as you know -- huge ones . bo is the only man i 've ever loved ... ever will love . jennifer : you know what ? i thought that once about jack . i wish that i felt sure about anything right now . hope : give yourself some time , okay ? because i know , in the end , you will make the right decision . marlena : uh , come in and make yourself comfortable . anyplace is fine . jack : i went to visit john yesterday . marlena : you did ? that was kind of you . thank you . jack : yeah . he seems -- he seems in good spirits . marlena : oh , then he 's -- then he 's faking . he 's very uncomfortable in confined spaces . jack : [ groaning ] marlena : jack ? are you all right ? jack : oh , i 'm fine . i 'm fine . w - what did you say ? marlena : does this happen to you very often ? jack : uh , what ? marlena : well , you clearly went to some other place , some place that was very uncomfortable . was it after afghanistan you were concerned that you were having symptoms of post - traumatic stress disorder . jack : [ groaning ] [ sighs ] i - i ca n't really talk about that right now . marlena : all right . you know , you might find it helpful to write things down and journal some , get those feelings at least out of your body . jack : ah , ah , ah . so i can -- so i can feel ... what it 's like to be kidnapped again ? so i can feel like ... like i 'm gon na die in a hole ? no , i - i do n't think you know what you 're asking . i do n't -- i do n't -- i do n't -- no , i do n't think you know . bo : hey , you got to see this . jennifer : [ gasps ] daniel : whoa ! jennifer : that 's not fair . that was the ' 80s . daniel : wow , how much hairspray did you use there ? jennifer : no , everybody wore their hair like that . daniel : it 's hot . jennifer : my hair 's bigger than my head . do n't ever look at that again . it 's not hot . bo : let me find you a picture of this one . daniel : i 'm just glad there 's no pictures of me in here . hope : actually , look , i found this picture of a baby . and then we realized it looked nothing like you . daniel : well , that 's definitely not me . i was much less cute . jennifer : i doubt that . hope : i highly doubt that . he 's just being modest . edith wharton stories -- gran loved this book . jennifer : oh , let 's see . hope : hey . bo : what 's that ? hope : uh ... a letter addressed to gran from london . jennifer : who 's it from ? hope : s. banks . bo : susan banks . daniel : yeah , who 's that ? jennifer : wow . that 's ej dimera 's mother . why in the world was susan banks writing a letter to gran ? madison : it is really beautiful here , brady . i 've lived in a lot of places . none of them have ever felt like home , but i ... i do n't know , i feel like this maybe could be . brady : i know what you mean . i mean , there were , uh , times when i thought i 'd never come back here , and now i really ca n't imagine leaving . by the way , um ... thank you for dinner -- loved it . madison : my pleasure . brady : and if there 's any doubt in your mind , i had a really good time breaking some rules with you tonight . madison : we did n't really break that many rules . brady : eh . why , were you in the mood to break some more ? madison : i think we should save some for next time . brady : well , then i should probably just say good night . madison : good night , brady . brady : madison , hold up . wait . madison : what ? what is it ? brady : [ sighs ] i do n't want to say good night . madison : no ? what do you want ? brady : this . madison : let 's get out of here . brady : where are we going ? madison : my place . brady : all right . hope : it looks like susan was asking for gran 's help . jennifer : help with what ? hope : well , let 's read it . `` dear mrs. horton , little elvis is very , very sick . after chasing our tail all over london looking for the right help for angel , edmund and i finally found this fancy - schmancy '' -- she always had a way with words -- '' doctor . he does this experimental treatment that could possibly save my sweet darling 's life , but we ca n't even get an appointment to see his royal highness . `` daniel : wow , this susan certainly had an interesting way of expressing herself . jennifer : oh , yeah , you do n't know the half of it -- make that the fourth of it . hope : `` i know you are all well - connected to the doctor people , and you were always so kind to me and my baby . if you could get in touch with this specialty doctor and get him to help my elvis , i would be forever and ever grateful . please let me know if you can help . most sincerely , susan banks . `` bo : wow . do you think mrs. h helped her ? jennifer : it 's gram . i mean , of course she helped her . hope : hey , wait a minute , there 's more here . `` p.s . , i 've included a picture of elvis jr . in ca -- in case you 've forgotten him . p.s.s . , please do not tell stefano anything about this . i think he has figured out that i am not kristen , so edmund and i are going into hiding . that man is mean , mean , mean . `` daniel : okay , who 's kristen , and why was susan pretending to be kristen ? jennifer : oh , my goodness , it 's a long , long story . hope : a very , very long story . jennifer : suffice it to say , susan was -- she was a decent person . bo : did mrs. h ever say anything to you about this ? hope : no , never . i did n't know she had any contact with susan after she left salem . jennifer : this is crazy . this is , like , another thing that we never knew about gram . hope : i wonder if this somehow ties into gran 's secret bank account . glad that one 's over . yeah , i know what you mean . madison : wait , wait , wait . stop , stop , stop . brady : what ? what ? what ? what ? what ? what is wrong with you ? what 's going on ? madison : i do n't think we should do this . i think you should go . jennifer : all right , well , it 's obvious that gram helped susan , because ej is alive today . bo : yeah , and if stefano found out about this , it would explain why he gave that gift of a paperweight to mrs. h . hope : that 's why i love you . you 're so smart . it 's definitely a possibility . daniel : well , then the baby in the picture must be ej , right ? jennifer : well , now that you mention it , look . look at the resemblance . daniel : yeah , i guess over the years , the picture must have got separated from the letter . bo : yeah . but there 's got to be more to the story , because once stefano took ej from susan , why would mrs. h keep all of this a secret ? hope : i do n't know . but this is getting more and more bizarre . bo : yeah , `` bizarre `` is a good word for it . jack : day after day , there was either more torture or fear of the same . marlena : that must have been awful to go through alone . jack : oh , i was n't alone ... not at first . there was a brit , a cellmate , a british engineer who just talked my ear off . and i really looked forward to the distraction . he just went on and on and on about gardening and game clubs and his kids , john , james , janet , julia , and lovely wife , jemma . marlena : you still remember their names . jack : oh , i could n't forget them -- i could n't . i mean , he was incessant about how we 'd get back home and we would meet in his favorite pub for a pint . and our wives would get on famously , and jj and jennifer would get along with all the `` jj 's . and it was -- and it was all right . and i do n't think i 'd be here now without him . marlena : i 'm sure you helped him , too . jack : no , marlena , i did n't help him at all . i listened , and he talked . and then they came to realize how much we depended on each other . so they came in ... and they grabbed him , and they dragged him away . and he started fighting back , which you do n't do that . and i told him to stop and it was gon na be okay , and it 's like he knew . he started screaming for me to help -- to help him , and i said it would be okay . just -- it 'll -- and they took him away , and then he really screamed . and then he -- he stopped . and he 's -- marlena : jack ? what happened to your friend ? jack : ah . they tore -- they tore his tongue out . they tore his tongue out because he talked too much . and then they killed him . the sons of bitches killed him . madison : i 'm sorry , brady . i ca n't do this . brady : did i do something wrong or what ? madison : no . it 's just -- you know , it 's like i said . you and me -- it 's just not a good idea . brady : right . right . not a good idea . [ sighs ] all right . jennifer : do you know that this is the second time that you have given up our date night to help me out ? i really appreciate it . daniel : hmm . well , do you know that i like spending time with you ? and i missed you . jennifer : well , i missed you . daniel : yeah . hope : i had no idea gran had so many secrets . bo : yeah . hope : it 's like one thing just keeps leading to another thing that 's even stranger and more mysterious . why do you think she kept all these secrets from us ? we 're her family . what , did n't she trust us ? bo : i 'm sure it 's not about trust . mrs. h was the smartest woman i knew ... besides you , of course . i 'm sure she had an excellent reason for doing what she did . hope : hey , brady , when i saw stefano the other day , he said that when you dig into other people 's private lives , you may discover things you wish you did n't . this is gran we 're talking about . you do n't think he 's right , do you ? bo : stefano does n't want us to investigate ? i ca n't think of a better reason to investigate . hope : yeah , you 're right . bo : well , what do we have ? um , the account , a baby picture nobody recognizes , that paperweight thingy . hope : yeah , the paperweight . bo : and now this letter with susan . we just got to figure out how all these pieces fit together and why mrs. h wanted to keep this secret . hope : well , you know what we could do ? we could track susan down and see what she has to say . bo : yeah , we could do that . but with this new information , i think we need to talk to stefano again , and this time i 'll go with you -- give him the old brady one - two punch . what ? hope : that 's exactly what i was hoping you 'd say . jack : i heard him scream ... and scream , and then i heard them laugh . they laughed while they killed him . they laughed . marlena : that 's horrible , jack . that 's unthinkable . jack : they -- they could do anything , and i knew right then they would . they would do anything . they would do everything . and i ... i was just so scared . i knew -- i knew right then i was never gon na see my family again . and i could n't -- i could n't do anything . i 'd just never see them again . marlena : it 's okay . i 've got you . jack : [ groaning ] marlena : i 've got you . i 've got you . jack : no . [ sniffles ] jennifer : did anyone ever tell you to never underestimate your opponent ? 'cause you just made your first fatal mistake . john : damn it , i 'm a fool !
at jennifer 's house , bo and hope showed up while jennifer was waiting for daniel to show up for their date . she thought he might have stood her up since he was late . she was going to help bo and hope find out the secrets to alice 's bank accounts if daniel did n't show up . daniel showed up for their date . bo wanted to find out alice 's secret while hope eavesdropped on jennifer and daniel . daniel apologized for being late . he was getting tickets for the symphony . at the brady pub , marlena sat at jack 's table . they talked about jennifer going out with daniel . jack did n't feel like getting into his demons . they talked about him being captive in afghanistan . she wanted him to deal with his trauma or he would n't get past it . he did n't want to talk about what he went through . they ended up talking about his father . bo and hope told jennifer and daniel about the baby picture and paperweight they found . daniel asked why stefano would give alice a gift . hope said she did n't know , but she tried asking . she said stefano tried to get her to give up . she said how she and bo figured the answers had to be in the boxes . jennifer apologized for having to leave . daniel suggested they stay behind and help bo and hope . marlena suggested that she and jack talk at the townhouse since she did n't have an office yet .
<s>[INST] brady : you do realize i 'm gon na get this framed , right ? madison : it 's not signed . you have no proof it 's from me . brady : ah , but i have the satisfaction of knowing it , though , do n't i ? madison : damn . brady : does this mean you 're gon na be staying in town ? madison : um ... [ clears throat ] i , uh ... i got upset ... this morning . i let my emotions get the best of me . now that my head is clear , i can see that keeping mad world 's headquarters here in salem is what 's best for the company . i 'm not gon na let kate run me out of town . brady : good . i would have hated to have seen you go , personally ... especially when things are getting so interesting around here . jennifer : [ sighs ] okay . he 'll be here . is that him ? hope : oh , what are you doing ? jennifer : oh , hi . hope : what are you doing ? i thought you -- oh , bo , thanks for -- jennifer : hi . hope : i did n't think you were gon na be home , otherwise we would have rung the bell . wait a second -- were n't you supposed to be out on a date tonight with daniel ? jennifer : yeah , that was the plan , but either he 's late , or he stood me up . i ca n't get ahold of him . bo : stood you up ? that does n't sound like daniel . i 'm sure , you know , he had an empital or -- jennifer : yeah , or he 's just tired of this whole situation with jack , and i ca n't blame him . you know , it 's a rotten situation . hope : no , still , if he was going to cancel , i 'm sure he would have picked up the phone and called you . jennifer : well , you know , whatever . i mean , if he does n't show up , i can help you finish going through gram 's things , and we can figure out what this secret mystery is to the bank account . it 's fine . [ knock at door ] hope : oh ! bo : well , there you go . hope : looks like yoby the bell , or the doc . okay , where should we start ? jennifer : hi . daniel : hey . wow . i 'm sorry -- jennifer : hi . daniel : hi . i 'm sorry i 'm late . i just -- i wanted to call , but i left my phone at home and -- jennifer : no , it 's okay . it 's all right -- i 'm just so glad you 're here . i thought -- i thought maybe you 'd given up on me . daniel : ah , no . never . jennifer : good . good . good . jack : [ sighs ] marlena : hey , jack . jack : hey . marlena : i got your voice mail . i usually charge people when they cancel in fewer than 24 hours . jack : how did you know i was here ? marlena : i heard caroline barking orders in the background when i got your voice mail . jack : you missed your calling . you should have been a detective . marlena : we 're very much alike . we 're both trying to get at the motivation for people 's behavior . jack : oh . well , you see , um ... i - i 'm really not in the mood to have my head shrunk tonight . so if you do n't mind , please , just leave me in peace . daniel : my gosh . jennifer : thank you . bo : okay , mrs. kravitz , did n't anyone ever tell you it 's impolite to eavesdrop ? hope : i know , i 'm just worried about jen , and i ca n't hear anything with you talking . bo : yeah , you can talk to her later . use some of your sleuthing skills to help solve mrs. h 's secret . hope : you know , i really do think that we 're getting closer , but you know what ? i have a great idea . let 's go get some more boxes . come on . bo : more box -- i know what you 're up to . hope : come on , and walk slowly . shh , stop talking . i ca n't hear . bo : [ whistles ] madison : i want to thank you for stopping me from making a huge mistake . i 've never -- never had anyone look out for me like that . it 's kind of nice . brady : well , you know , even a successful independent woman can use a little bit of input once in a while . madison : do n't make a habit of it . brady : i hear you loud and clear . i understand , but as the owner of your company , i to ask you what your next move is . madison : well , if i 'm gon na keep salem as my base of operations , i need to cut into kate 's local market share . brady : i totally agree . madison : i 'm gon na have to find some way to make the locals view mad world as a homegrown company . brady : and how do you intend to do that ? madison : i have a few ideas . daniel : i 'm really sorry about postponing our date the other night . i just -- i do n't know . i needed a little time to get my head screwed on straight . jennifer : no , i understand . you have so much going on . you know , finding out that you 're maggie 's son and not to mention the whole seesaw that we 've been on . i mean , i would n't even blame you if you blew me off . daniel : well , that 's not really gon na happen , which brings me to the reason why i 'm late . i , um ... i scored us , uh , two tickets to a sold - out symphony tonight . jennifer : [ gasps ] you did ? that is so sweet . daniel : yeah , i hear you like surprises . i heard that somewhere . jennifer : i do . daniel : i know you do . jennifer : i ca n't believe you went to all that trouble . daniel : well , i like trouble . you know what else i like ? seeing this smile right here . jennifer : i like you . daniel : i like you . jack : oh , i thought you were gon na leave me in peace . marlena : no . i 'm giving you time to come up with an appropriate apology . jack : yes , right . , uh , i am sorry . jennifer 's on a date with daniel tonight , and it 's put me in a foul mood . look , tonight i 'm really not in the mood to face up to any of my demons . i 'd say just let them all lie , bury 'em , and let 's learn to peacefully coexist . marlena : is n't that what you 've been trying to do since you came back to salem ? how 's that working for you ? jack : well , i 've come up with some survival strategies . marlena : you 're burning up a bar tab , i see . jack ... being held captive in afghanistan is unspeakably traumatizing . but unless you deal with that , you wo n't get past it . you will not find any peace . jack : i 'm trying . marlena : how ? jack : [ chuckles ] marlena : look , i know it 's awfully hard to talk about what you went through . you 've taken the first step . you made the appointment . why did n't you follow up ? jack : well , like the saying goes , liquor is quicker and cheaper , and , come on , you shrinks charge a fortune . marlena : yeah . so it 's a home remedy . you 're gon na self - medicate with too much alcohol . jack : whatever helps me find a moment 's relief . marlena : until when ? until you just black out ? jack : if i 'm lucky . marlena : so you 've decided that running away from your problems will be a little bit easier for you than solving them , hmm ? jack : well , jennifer and everyone else seems to think that 's what i do best . so i say stick with what you know . toothpaste is not formulated for cleaning dentures , brady : people can come all around the world and see how mad world products are made . they can come in , they can test them , they can sample them , they can take them home . think ben & jerry 's vermont factory just with cosmetics , not with ice cream . madison : i like it . that would certainly outshine kate 's puny product shelf at quinn 's dinky day spa . brady : mm - hmm . exactly . but tell me about your ideas . madison : you know , our ideas are remarkably similar . brady : how about that ? see , great minds think alike . i actually had research put together some prelim numbers , and i 'm gon na show them to you . and , madison ... i 'm very glad that we 're , uh ... on the same page about this . madison : absolutely . of course , it never hurts to have a backup plan . marlena : so jennifer thinks that you run away from your problems . what do you think ? jack : i can see how she could see it that way . i think i tend to be impulsive , and my impulses say , `` avoid , avoid , avoid . `` marlena : avoid , avoid what ? jack : ah , any emotions that make me feel uncomfortable . i mean , why go there , right ? marlena : hmm . so then your emotions end up getting pushed out even farther . jack : yeah . out of sight , out of mind . that 's my motto . that 's what i always say . marlena : do you think that 's a healthy way to handle your problems ? jack : in my own defense , it 's not like i had really healthy role models for healthy adult behavior . marlena : what do you mean ? jack : well , i mean , putting aside my biological father , who was a real treat who used to beat his family , let 's look at my -- the man who raised me , harper deveraux . controlling senator by day , knife - wielding serial killer by night . marlena : were you close to jack : well , i tried to be . i mean , i thought i was . i used to look up to him , wanted to be like him , admired him . marlena : be like him how ? jack : well , you know , he was always in control of everything . he always ... nothing shook him -- nothing . and then to find out that he was how he was and how he really dealt with things ... marlena : that must have been the betrayal of a lifelong trust . jack : so you 're saying my tendency to run away from people that i love or care about started with him ? i mean , what , i was scared ? marlena : were you ? of what ? jack : i -- of , uh -- well , i do n't know -- that i would let them down again . or ... marlena : or ? or what ? jack : this is silly . marlena : none of it 's silly , jack -- none of it . jack : what if -- what if they let me down ? hmm ? what if they let me down ? what if they were n't -- what if they were n't who i thought they were , huh ? see , it 's ridiculous , see ? marlena : no , it 's not . i think it 's incredibly perceptive . daniel : something like that . jennifer : something like that . bo : [ clears throat ] jennifer : oh , hey . hope : hey , guys . jennifer : guess what . hope : what ? jennifer : daniel got tickets to the symphony . we 're on our way out . hope : oh , that 's great . have a great time . jennifer : thank you . wait . why more boxes ? i thought we 'd gone through these at least three times . hope : so did we . bo : a dozen times . daniel : well , any luck yet ? bo : no , things have actually gotten more complicated . we found this picture of a baby that nobody recognizes and this paperweight , which was a gift from stefano to mrs. h . daniel : why would stefano give alice horton a gift ? hope : we have absolutely no idea , but i tried asking him . daniel : ooh , let me guess -- you did n't get very far . hope : hmm , he tried to get me to give up . can you imagine ? bo : you 'd think the man would learn by now . hope : anyway , we figure that the answers have got to be in these boxes somewhere . daniel : wow , this is a lot of stuff here . jennifer : yeah , well , gram -- she loved to hold on to all of her things . anyway , i 'm sorry we have to bail . i wish we could stick around and see what else gram 's left bo : that 's okay . daniel : uh , can ... hope : yeah , sure . sorry . excuse me , guys . sorry , daniel . daniel : jen , you know , it 's okay if we go to the symphony another night . it 's fine with me . jennifer : uh ... daniel : hey , you know what ? we can stay here and help out . jennifer : no , what about our date ? daniel : you know what we 'll do -- we 'll make it a double date . we 'll order some food , open some wine . jennifer : no , but you went to so much trouble to get these tickets . daniel : i would enjoy a date with you where i can look at you and i can talk to you , not the violins in the background . jennifer : are you sure ? daniel : i 'm pretty sure . i could be convinced -- maybe even more sure . jennifer : maybe i could convince you . daniel : yeah . jennifer : just a little . bo : [ whistles ] jennifer : so wonderful . thank you for being so understanding . daniel : you know what ? so , anyway , what do we do first ? bo : ay , somebody said something about ordering out for food . i 'm starving . daniel : that would be me . hope : you 're always starving . daniel : that would also be me . okay , where are the menus ? jennifer : uh , kitchen , top drawer , left of the stove . daniel : got it . to the kitchen . hope : do n't forget about dessert . bo : yeah , dessert . hope : dessert . bo : chinese , pizza . hope : chinese pizza ? jennifer : oh , no . hope : pretty dreamy , huh ? jennifer : oh , dreamy . hope : dreamy . jennifer : dreamy . dreamy . [ both chuckle ] jack : you tricked me . marlena : oh . jack : you used your wily doctor ways to get me to spill my guts . marlena : no . you wanted to talk . you just were n't sure where to start . jack : no , i guess not . but , uh , if you 're gon na insist i keep my appointment ... maybe we should pick someplace a little less public . marlena : all right . what about the town house ? jack : no , no , i - i could n't do that . i 'm sorry . marlena : i 'm not gon na ask you to get on the sofa . i just do n't have an office anywhere yet , and i can promise , it will be quiet and peaceful . daniel : my mother ... maggie -- in all these pictures , she 's in -- she 's in crutches . was it because of the m.g . ? hope : oh , no , no , no , no , no . daniel : what -- what happened to her ? jennifer : she was in a horrible car accident when she was a young girl , and that 's what killed both of her parents . daniel : she did n't mention that to me . hope : yeah , after that accident , she closed herself off from the rest of the world for , i 'd say , a pretty long time . when uncle mickey met her , she was living alone on a remote farm . daniel : how did she manage ? bo : well , from all the stories , i heard that she hired men to tend the fields and the livestock , and she pretty much did everything else . daniel : really ? that 's remarkable . hope : nope , that 's maggie . jennifer : yeah . daniel : wow , and i thought i knew her so well . man . jennifer : but , you know , there 's probably so many things that she still does n't know about you . daniel : oh , me ? oh , yeah , yeah , i 'm an open book , right ? jennifer : hey . i 'm , uh -- i 'm really glad that you got to spend thanksgiving together . daniel : mm - hmm . jennifer : hey ... i missed you . daniel : i missed you . yeah . i know i have n't really , um , warmed up to the idea that maggie 's my mother . jennifer : yeah , but that 's completely understandable . daniel : yeah , but i am grateful , you know , more and more every day , as a matter of fact . and , uh , i really would n't have done it without these two right here -- bo and hope . um , yeah , you know , you guys -- i 'm not even sure if i properly thanked you or even how to say -- hope : no , no , no , daniel , you do n't need to thank us . it was really gran . she 's the one who did all the hard work tracking you down . daniel : yeah . well , if there 's anything i can do to return the favor , perhaps helping you uncover more of these secrets here . hope : thank you . bo : that 'd be good . jennifer : here , hope , take a look at these . these were all in this box . did you already look through these ? hope : some of them . daniel : uh - oh , we got some wedding pictures in here . jennifer : uh - oh . daniel : yeah , oh , yeah . jennifer : oh , boy . daniel : there 's maggie and mickey . wow , oh , my goodness , here 's bo and hope . bo : oh , yeah , which wedding ? that 's a legitimate question . hope : i know . well , they were all wonderful . he 's right . daniel : oh ... and , uh ... jennifer : what ? what is it ? daniel : it 's you ... and jack . madison : hey , i 'm getting kind of hungry . brady : mm - hmm . madison : do you want to grab a bite ? my treat . brady : excuse me ? madison : what ? you do n't like when women pay ? brady : actually , no , i do n't like that . call me old - fashioned , but , no , i like to hold car doors . i like to pay -- those kinds of things . madison : well , you sign my paychecks , so technically you 're always buying . let 's go . brady : wait . hold on a sec . madison , i 'm very , very confused right now . okay , you said to me , if i recall , `` brady , i do n't like to socialize with business partners . `` as a matter of fact , you said that 's the one rule that you never break . madison : well , i 'm in the mood to break a few rules tonight . care you join me ? brady : oh , oh , come on . that 's unbelievable . that 's the best dessert they have in town . madison : mm - mm . no way . mine is delicious . oh , my gosh , this is incredible . who would have thought you could get such good pineapple upside - down cake in salem at this time of the year ? brady : see , i told you salem -- you know , it just has a few things that you ca n't find anywhere else in the world . madison : a few . do you want to try mine ? brady : yeah , i want to try yours . really ? we 're gon na do this ? okay . give me the bite . madison : i will . i wo n't do it . brady : people are watching . madison : i 'm sorry . brady : oh , thank you . you got most of it on the corner of my -- thank you . madison : it 's too good . brady : yeah , you 're right , it 's pretty incredible . that 's good . madison : mm - hmm . brady : that 's really good . madison : it killed you to admit that , did n't it ? brady : yeah , it did , because i think my dessert is pretty good , too . you 're gon na try some of this coconut mousse . coconut mousse . come on . oh . i 'm sorry . my bad . i 'm not gon na -- ahh ! madison : brady black , i hate you . brady : come on , no , you do n't . here you go . hmm , how about that ? yeah ? madison : it 's okay . brady : it 's ok -- it 's okay ? it 's incredible . madison : it 's very good . i like it . brady : do you want to share ? of course , we 'll share both desserts . madison : can we share ? brady : it 's very appropriately tropical right now , do n't you think -- the pineapple and the coconut ? madison : what are you talking about ? it 's winter . brady : exactly . so when you want to picture yourself on a hawaiian beach or something , you can just transport your mind by thinking about this dessert . madison : hmm . brady : mm - hmm . hey , pick up your glass . i 'd like to propose a toast ... to breaking a few rules once in a while . madison : i will definitely drink to that . brady : and to the power of the subconscious . jennifer : i can not believe that daniel saw a picture of jack and i getting married . hope : oh , i would n't worry about that . he knows you were married to jack . it 's no -- i think he took it in stride . jennifer : i know . you know what i hate ? i hate that i did n't have thanksgiving with him . i hate that i have these two men on a string impatiently waiting for me to make up my mind . hope : well , uh , given that the two men are daniel and jack , i 'd have to say that i bet a lot of women would love to be in your shoes . jennifer : i understand that , but i am not enjoying one minute of this . hope : oh , cuz , i know . i know that you hate the idea of breaking anyone 's heart . are you any closer to a decision ? jennifer : no , no . i thought -- i thought i would be through this by now , and i am as confused as ever . hope : i 'm sorry . i definitely do n't envy you right now . jennifer : i wish i could just flip a coin , you know . you 're so lucky , because you 've always known that bo is the man for you . hope : but ... we have definitely had our ups and downs , as you know -- huge ones . bo is the only man i 've ever loved ... ever will love . jennifer : you know what ? i thought that once about jack . i wish that i felt sure about anything right now . hope : give yourself some time , okay ? because i know , in the end , you will make the right decision . marlena : uh , come in and make yourself comfortable . anyplace is fine . jack : i went to visit john yesterday . marlena : you did ? that was kind of you . thank you . jack : yeah . he seems -- he seems in good spirits . marlena : oh , then he 's -- then he 's faking . he 's very uncomfortable in confined spaces . jack : [ groaning ] marlena : jack ? are you all right ? jack : oh , i 'm fine . i 'm fine . w - what did you say ? marlena : does this happen to you very often ? jack : uh , what ? marlena : well , you clearly went to some other place , some place that was very uncomfortable . was it after afghanistan you were concerned that you were having symptoms of post - traumatic stress disorder . jack : [ groaning ] [ sighs ] i - i ca n't really talk about that right now . marlena : all right . you know , you might find it helpful to write things down and journal some , get those feelings at least out of your body . jack : ah , ah , ah . so i can -- so i can feel ... what it 's like to be kidnapped again ? so i can feel like ... like i 'm gon na die in a hole ? no , i - i do n't think you know what you 're asking . i do n't -- i do n't -- i do n't -- no , i do n't think you know . bo : hey , you got to see this . jennifer : [ gasps ] daniel : whoa ! jennifer : that 's not fair . that was the ' 80s . daniel : wow , how much hairspray did you use there ? jennifer : no , everybody wore their hair like that . daniel : it 's hot . jennifer : my hair 's bigger than my head . do n't ever look at that again . it 's not hot . bo : let me find you a picture of this one . daniel : i 'm just glad there 's no pictures of me in here . hope : actually , look , i found this picture of a baby . and then we realized it looked nothing like you . daniel : well , that 's definitely not me . i was much less cute . jennifer : i doubt that . hope : i highly doubt that . he 's just being modest . edith wharton stories -- gran loved this book . jennifer : oh , let 's see . hope : hey . bo : what 's that ? hope : uh ... a letter addressed to gran from london . jennifer : who 's it from ? hope : s. banks . bo : susan banks . daniel : yeah , who 's that ? jennifer : wow . that 's ej dimera 's mother . why in the world was susan banks writing a letter to gran ? madison : it is really beautiful here , brady . i 've lived in a lot of places . none of them have ever felt like home , but i ... i do n't know , i feel like this maybe could be . brady : i know what you mean . i mean , there were , uh , times when i thought i 'd never come back here , and now i really ca n't imagine leaving . by the way , um ... thank you for dinner -- loved it . madison : my pleasure . brady : and if there 's any doubt in your mind , i had a really good time breaking some rules with you tonight . madison : we did n't really break that many rules . brady : eh . why , were you in the mood to break some more ? madison : i think we should save some for next time . brady : well , then i should probably just say good night . madison : good night , brady . brady : madison , hold up . wait . madison : what ? what is it ? brady : [ sighs ] i do n't want to say good night . madison : no ? what do you want ? brady : this . madison : let 's get out of here . brady : where are we going ? madison : my place . brady : all right . hope : it looks like susan was asking for gran 's help . jennifer : help with what ? hope : well , let 's read it . `` dear mrs. horton , little elvis is very , very sick . after chasing our tail all over london looking for the right help for angel , edmund and i finally found this fancy - schmancy '' -- she always had a way with words -- '' doctor . he does this experimental treatment that could possibly save my sweet darling 's life , but we ca n't even get an appointment to see his royal highness . `` daniel : wow , this susan certainly had an interesting way of expressing herself . jennifer : oh , yeah , you do n't know the half of it -- make that the fourth of it . hope : `` i know you are all well - connected to the doctor people , and you were always so kind to me and my baby . if you could get in touch with this specialty doctor and get him to help my elvis , i would be forever and ever grateful . please let me know if you can help . most sincerely , susan banks . `` bo : wow . do you think mrs. h helped her ? jennifer : it 's gram . i mean , of course she helped her . hope : hey , wait a minute , there 's more here . `` p.s . , i 've included a picture of elvis jr . in ca -- in case you 've forgotten him . p.s.s . , please do not tell stefano anything about this . i think he has figured out that i am not kristen , so edmund and i are going into hiding . that man is mean , mean , mean . `` daniel : okay , who 's kristen , and why was susan pretending to be kristen ? jennifer : oh , my goodness , it 's a long , long story . hope : a very , very long story . jennifer : suffice it to say , susan was -- she was a decent person . bo : did mrs. h ever say anything to you about this ? hope : no , never . i did n't know she had any contact with susan after she left salem . jennifer : this is crazy . this is , like , another thing that we never knew about gram . hope : i wonder if this somehow ties into gran 's secret bank account . glad that one 's over . yeah , i know what you mean . madison : wait , wait , wait . stop , stop , stop . brady : what ? what ? what ? what ? what ? what is wrong with you ? what 's going on ? madison : i do n't think we should do this . i think you should go . jennifer : all right , well , it 's obvious that gram helped susan , because ej is alive today . bo : yeah , and if stefano found out about this , it would explain why he gave that gift of a paperweight to mrs. h . hope : that 's why i love you . you 're so smart . it 's definitely a possibility . daniel : well , then the baby in the picture must be ej , right ? jennifer : well , now that you mention it , look . look at the resemblance . daniel : yeah , i guess over the years , the picture must have got separated from the letter . bo : yeah . but there 's got to be more to the story , because once stefano took ej from susan , why would mrs. h keep all of this a secret ? hope : i do n't know . but this is getting more and more bizarre . bo : yeah , `` bizarre `` is a good word for it . jack : day after day , there was either more torture or fear of the same . marlena : that must have been awful to go through alone . jack : oh , i was n't alone ... not at first . there was a brit , a cellmate , a british engineer who just talked my ear off . and i really looked forward to the distraction . he just went on and on and on about gardening and game clubs and his kids , john , james , janet , julia , and lovely wife , jemma . marlena : you still remember their names . jack : oh , i could n't forget them -- i could n't . i mean , he was incessant about how we 'd get back home and we would meet in his favorite pub for a pint . and our wives would get on famously , and jj and jennifer would get along with all the `` jj 's . and it was -- and it was all right . and i do n't think i 'd be here now without him . marlena : i 'm sure you helped him , too . jack : no , marlena , i did n't help him at all . i listened , and he talked . and then they came to realize how much we depended on each other . so they came in ... and they grabbed him , and they dragged him away . and he started fighting back , which you do n't do that . and i told him to stop and it was gon na be okay , and it 's like he knew . he started screaming for me to help -- to help him , and i said it would be okay . just -- it 'll -- and they took him away , and then he really screamed . and then he -- he stopped . and he 's -- marlena : jack ? what happened to your friend ? jack : ah . they tore -- they tore his tongue out . they tore his tongue out because he talked too much . and then they killed him . the sons of bitches killed him . madison : i 'm sorry , brady . i ca n't do this . brady : did i do something wrong or what ? madison : no . it 's just -- you know , it 's like i said . you and me -- it 's just not a good idea . brady : right . right . not a good idea .
